So far I use http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q=downtown&output=csv&key=whateverthekeyis to get the longitude and lattitude of some address.
function load()
if (GBrowserIsCompatible())
map = new GMap2(document.getElementById('"mapHolderID');
map.addControl(new GSmallMapControl());
map.addControl(new GMapTypeControl());
map.setCenter(new GLatLng(lattitude,longitude), 15);
var point=new GLatLng(lattitudelongitude);
map.addOverlay(new GMarker(point);
So if user enters Downtown it would take the user to downtown. Now what I want is that if user searches for downtown resturants search result should point to downtown as well as list all the resturants in downtown.
Any Ideas how this can be achieved?

kichler micro accent lights
These micro spots deliver an attractive soft up-lighting effect. They are durable and easy to install. The plastic in-ground mounts are a bit bulky but can't be seen once the lights are installed. The value was incredible since we got them on sale.

Bulgaria's Energy Watchdog to Become Parliamentary Structure
Vasil Shtonov, caretaker Energy Minister, has informed that the State Commission for Energy and Water Regulation (DKEVR) may be moved from the government to Parliament.
Shtonov made clear at a Friday press conference that the proposal was still being discussed and it could only be implemented by an ordinary government.
He underscored that the measure was aimed at increasing the independence of the entity and boosting its expert capacity.
Shtonov, as cited by the Bulgarian Telegraph Agency, said that one of his goals would be to increase the efficiency of state-owned energy companies, adding that it involved senior-level reshuffles.
He announced that the deficit in the energy system amounted to BGN 3B and it kept growing by BGN 500-600M a year.
Bulgaria's caretaker Energy Minister underscored that the deficit would keep snowballing until the authorities took urgent steps to solve the problem.
He argued that the country's energy strategy had to be revised in order to minimize losses in the medium term and to allow the start of repayment of liabilities accumulated over the past 4-5 years.
He said that the first steps for the creation of an energy board would be taken in the next few weeks, adding that it would guarantee that the opinions and recommendations of all market participants had been taken into consideration.
As regards the South Stream gas pipeline project, he noted that it would be beneficial for Bulgaria to implement it, taking into account that it entailed a negligible risk for the state.
Shtonov explained that the authorities were working to make the gas pipeline project compatible with EU law and as favorable as possible for Bulgaria.
He assured that Bulgaria had no reason to fear a potential gas supply cut or disruption over the situation in Ukraine.
Shtonov declared that the Chiren gas storage facility was 75% full, which would suffice to cover the energy needs for 60-120 days, depending on the weather conditions.
He added that the caretaker government would provide the resources for filling the gas depot to its full capacity over the next few days.
The caretaker Energy Minister noted that the work on Bulgaria's gas grid interconnections with Romania, Turkey and Serbia continued.
He also said that the total cost of the project to build a 7th unit of the Kozloduy Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) would amount to over 15% of Bulgaria's GDP and the country would also have to shoulder the entire risk and the burden of financing it.
Shtonov emphasized that the caretaker government would not take any steps under the agreement with US Westinghouse Electric on the N-plant unit.
He pointed out that the next Cabinet would have to make the tough decision on unit 7 of the Kozloduy NPP, vowing that Bulgaria's interests would be protected during the term in office of the caretaker government.

It was alright
mars 03, 2015
I wish it had a clean smell within the unit. It smelled musty....But it did have the accommodations necessary for 3 people to stay just wish the carpets, drapes and furniture had a more pleasant smell. The breakfast was good, the potatoes were the only setback they were dry. It's a pet friendly hotel wish they had a fenced in area somewhere on the property for the pets to run and play. But overall great location
San Jose stay
mars 03, 2015
Very good accomodation. Location is convenient to North First Street and`highway 101. 40 mins to SFO and 5 mins to SJC.
Great internet access, convenient location
février 22, 2015
Good location near by the office, great internet access speed, quite and comfortable room.
There's everything that I need
février 19, 2015
It's my first time staying in a Staybridge suite. I am not quite sure about the standard that a suite hotel should meet; however, the atmosphere of the hotel and most of facilities it prepared really meet my expectation. The only complaint is the exorbitant price, but actually it's reasonable for San Jose.

Hey guys I'm mainly a Engineer player, and I wondered. Is the upgrade from the Mercenary to the Gauss Compact S worth it? I currently run my Mercenary when using vehicles/on foot And i run the GD-7F when I am assaulting facility's. Now the GD-7F is good, but it lacks range ofcourse. Do you guys think the Gauss Compact S is worth it's cost because of the attachment options? Or does it have other characteristic's that make it stand out from the mercenary?
It is a solid weapon that can be equipped to fill any role you are missing. You can spec it out for short ranged or long ranged through cert unlocks. Overall, one of the better unlocks.
Gauss Compact S is straight-up worse than the mercenary - slower reload and lower rate of fire with everything else being pretty much the same. the only reason to use it is so you can get the underbarrel grenade launcher.
Eh, I've had more success with it than the Mercenary. Handling characteristics are different and better.
Gauss S handles awesome. You can use it for close/medium range effectively. It has 3 fire modes. Personally I like using the burst fire when I'm shooting longer distances. It also handles 2 ammo types: Soft point, and High Velocity. You can also get the underbarrel Grenade Launcher, and Smoke Grenades. Both of which are very handy. Engineers need to think outside the box sometimes to be really effective in a firefight. I think the Smoke Grenades compliment that wonderfully. It's a great way to hide your hastily deployed bouncing betty or sticky grenade assault. The GD-7F is better at close range, but suffers at medium/long range. The Gauss S will extend your range capability. I'd use the Gauss S when you're using your vehicles etc, and the GD-7F if you're sure to be indoors. I'd definately run with the S instead of the Mercenary. No question.
Thanks for the reactions guys, Picked it up for a trial and definetly handles much like the Mercenary. Question is still have. Do the Smoke/Frag grenades for the grenadelauncher resupply from a ammo pack?
i´ve heard somewhere that the smokenade doesn´t really affect players on low settings(like me). woop, didn´t read your post carefully enough that´s a good question. i think they reload also from the ammodrop, because nearly every gun gets some ammo from the drops.
In the beta Smoke and Frag grenades DID resupply from boxes, but only a limited number of times, not sure how it works now
gauss compact s its just bad you will lose almost any close/mid fight unless you shot enemy to the back but then sometimes you lose also it have bad rate of fire and very big recoil if you want good weapon pick GD-7F or Piston shotty unless you already bought it then cert for granade launcher but becouse gl ammo bug you can sometimes shoot 2 times only
For me, as a Engineer only player i have only found the first gun as useful. I have the Alpha Squad gun which is meant to be better damage but it has spread out the *** even with a compensator. And the kick on all the NC engi weapons are insane. Compared to the Medic and heavies weapons, it is byfar the worst. The only saving grace is the fact you can resupply yourself, and by god you need it due to the hit rego on the guns. Not to say i don't get much kills, i already have the Merc with two gold medals. But it doesn't mean i didn't try my heart out to get those gold medals. From testing all the guns the Engis have on offer for the NC, i feel that the guns have been severly nerfed since the BETA, in the BETA a full mag would kill a heavy if every shot hit with his/her shield up. Now, it only breaks his nano shield and half his main shield. The spread is tremendous and i have a foregrip and a compensator on most my weapons. After my struggles with the guns, i went back to TR to see if they were nerfed as bad, nope, they actually felt better than ever. 10 extra bullets goes a long way too, they do have spread but it is easier to manage compared to the NC, You also feel MUCH more powerful close up, and you can kill a heavy even if they are fully modded in their suit upgrade of choice (tested this out with a friend). VS also have great starter weapons, with no bullet drop and small spread with incredible fire rate you can put down someone in seconds. NC guns feel the opposite to what they were meant to be, powerful and feared close-mid range. Terrible long range. Slow, but hard hitting. Now they feel weak, heavy spread and kick, and reload slower than a turtle going on a round world trip.
I love the Gauss Compact S personally, I was doing kinda meh and was getting kinda fed up with my engineer, so I decided to use some of my alpha squad cash to unlock it and **** it up a bit, compensator and softpoint ammo and I can actually hold my own at medium range. In single shot mode it is also accurate enough to hit people at range when you learn to compensate for the drop ( I haven't tried but I assume the long range ammo and burst fire could do pretty good for long range too)
Picked up the high velocity ammo since I'm making mine more for longer range engagements... The difference is significant.
580 confirmed kills with my Compact S/w grenade launcher, i wouldn't go into battle with anything else!
The Gauss Compact S is definitely the most versatile weapon for an NC Engineer because it has access to nearly all of the weapon attachments and scopes, so you can customize it for different scenarios and play styles. The three different fire modes are really handy for different situations as well (full auto, 3x burst, single shot). The GD-7F has a high rate of fire and is probably the most accurate of all of the options. However the lack of a 2x Reflex sight is extremely annoying (and I miss having the compensator on it from beta) The ammo boxes no longer supplies the grenade launcher, so you only have 2 shots with it before you have to find a terminal to resupply. I'm still debating if this is worth it or not.
Since I bought the grenade launcher several days ago, I haven't once gotten my ammo pack to resupply the grenades (whereas when I had it in beta, it would always work and I could launch grenades all day long).
Ah, I figured it out, it seems that the grenade launcher is only resupplied via the dedicated ammo pack in the utility slot (#4) and isn't supplied by the ACE ammo pack (#5). Not sure if this is a bug or not. Edit: Actually, it seems like this doesn't always work either.

| Ringing Ears -- Withdrawal?
I've notice the past few nights when trying to sleep that I have ringing in my ears. Is that part of withdrawal or have something to do with alcohol, or is it just tinnitus? Thought I read something on SR about someone's ears ringing. Kathy

It could have been me. Ringing ears(Tinnitus) was a symptom of my drinking, and during the first months of recovery, but over the years the condition has improved. |

Causes for Tinnitus or ringing in the ear: * Age-related tinnitus causes - hearing loss (presbycusis) occurring usually around age 60. * Trauma-related tinnitus causes - damage to the inner ear (could result from excessive exposure to loud sound). * Long-term use of medications such as aspirin (in large doses), quinine (used in treatment of malaria), antibiotics and anti-inflammatory can be tinnitus causes. Often the unwanted noises disappear once the drugs are discontinued. * Temporomandibular joint problems (jaw disorders resulting in clicking or grating noises) can be one of the tinnitus causes. * Otosclerosis (stiffening of the bones in the middle ear). * Trauma or injury to the head or neck can be a tinnitus cause. * Ear wax – Buildup of excess wax in the ear can reduce your ability to hear outside noises, and can be tinnitus causes by causing you to hear internal noises better. * Ear infection – If an infection reduces your ability to hear outside noises, you are more likely to hear the noises related to Tinnitus. * Atherosclerosis – Buildup of cholesterol and other fatty deposits causes tinnitus by causing the middle and inner ear to loose its elasticity which causes the blood flow to become more forceful which makes it easier for the ear to detect the beats. * High blood pressure – High blood pressure and factors that increase the blood pressure such as stress, alcohol and caffeine are tinnitus causes and can make the sounds more noticeable. * Food--Specific foods may trigger tinnitus. Problem foods include red wine, grain-based spirits, cheese, and chocolate. Tinnitus may also be caused by foods rich in salicylates (the same ingredient as in aspirin, which also causes tinnitus when taken in large amounts). * Growths/tumors--Acoustic neuromas, glomous tumors, otosclerosis may all be tinnitus causes. Surgery may be recommended. * Stress--Stress is not a direct cause of tinnitus, but it may generally make an already existing case worse. * Since tinnitus might be a symptom of another health problem, see your doctor for any hearing concerns. Caffeine, tobacco, alcohol, aspirin, antihistamines, and prescription or even over-the-counter medications can aggravate existing tinnitus and are tinnitus causes. |

My guess: It is caused by sympathetic nervous system excitability following cessation of alcohol. Since tinnitus is not an actual sound, but rather the perception of one that is generated by the brain, ramped up brain activity, such as that induced by cessation of depressants like alcohol, benzodiazepams, barbiturates, etc., would serve to both increase the strength of the signal as well as lower the threshold for its detection.* Think of it this way: When you drink it calms you down, and your brain relaxes. When you stop drinking, your brain, being used to the booze, has a hard time calming down by itself and becomes both active and sensitive. The active part of the brain (sympathetic nervous system) causes the noise, and the sensitive part (limbic system) notices it more. Over time, as the brain returns to a more balanced state, the noise should fade back to previous levels. * My view is supported by the fact that clonazepam (Klonopin), a benzodiazepam, alleviates the symptoms of tinnitus. | |

After stopping drinking my hearing was always very acute and sensitive and I would get tinnitus. It has always stopped once I stayed away from drinking. You may still want to check with a doc to be sure, ... general rule, if it doesn't clear up within one to two weeks go to a doctor...

I have a mild form of it from too much power equipment and motorcycling over the years. But what I have definitely noticed is that excessive caffeine, sweets or salt intake makes it worse. If I minimize those things it recedes into the background and I forget I have it.

Worrying: What Is It Good For?
in Religion
Ephesians 6:13, "So use every piece of God's armor to resist the enemy whenever he (satan) attacks, and when it is all over, you will be standing up."
Almost everyone alive today is experiencing some type of challenges in their lives. The enemy tries to come and torment you with fear. The devil wants you to believe that there is no hope in your situation. The bible says that there is always a way of escape. We must put on the whole armor of God according to Ephesians 6.

The One About Worrying
in Motivation
Speaking of the search for happiness....which I hope I am....there's the one sure killer that I assume we all fall victim to from time to time -- Worry. It's the killer of all things good and decent, and I'm far too familiar with it. In fact, right now, I'm worry about doing a show about worrying. Sick, right? Kids. Relationships. Love. Loss of Love. Divorce. The Boston Red Sox. Cockroaches. People who don't believe in climate change. People who do believe in open-mouthed sneezes in public. So much to fear, so little time. So let's talk about all our worries and how, well, to stop worrying about them!
Sacred Sunday~Romans 8/Nothing Can Separate us from the Love of God
in Spirituality
Welcome Church! This week we are reading Romans Chapter 8.
So Jesus has come, so we're not slaves to the law. Huzzah! Paul explains, Christians live under "the law of the Spirit." This is kind of like the laws of the Torah, but without worrying about following all 613 individual rules. Circumcision, for example, is optional (which is good news for male converts). In Jesus, God did what the law couldn't—he punched sin in the face and reunited the world with him again. Nice work, God. Non-believers don't share in this, though. They just walk around like ordinary, puny humans, thinking of ordinary, puny things. They can't possibly be thinking of God or following his laws because they don't believe in Jesus. But believers have lives and hearts that are filled with the spirit of God. And they're going to be best buds with God forever because of it. Believers have been adopted into God's family. They're his sons and daughters and he would totally do anything for them. Sure, it's true, Paul says, people are suffering. But all that's fine. It's gonna work out. Really. Plus, later, the rewards are going to far outweigh all the bad stuff everyone has been going through. Every part of creation is waiting for God. Soon, everyone and everything is going to be set free from sin and death and evil. It's all going to be awesome-sauce. And the people who are tight with God now—well, things are gonna work out for them big time, Paul tells us. Seriously, God sent his son to die for us. Don't you think he'll help us with all the other stuff we're going through? The Big Guy always has your back. It doesn't matter if Christians are arrested or persecuted or condemned or even killed—nothing is going to separate them from the love of God.

Let's Talk Life Today!
in Spirituality
Life happens to us ALL! We find it is not what happens to us that determines the level of effectiveness we reach, weather your a teacher, CEO, business owner, barber, coach etc. What matters is how you respond to what happens to you. There exist a modern psychosis that defines people by how much they can produce or what they have! This psychosis causes us to worry, and by worrying when life happens to us instead of seeing it as a point of learning or growing we see it as utter devastation. However, not regonizing that if God has allowed us to see another day, a day with new mercy and new grace never before recieved. Then this day following the failure is one for rejoicing not morning! LIFE HAPPENS TO US ALL! Today Lets Talk Life!

Red & Black, Authorpreneurial Sisters Who Are Making a Difference
in Writing
They say truth is sometimes stranger than fiction.* Not sure we want to admit to being strange, but we'll admit to being different. But then, most sisters are. However, our relationship and differences may be little more extreme because Black is a little more extreme. Let us briefly introduce ourselves: Red, the younger sister, is a redhead who took the path of being a stay-at-home mother and wife. Black, the older sister, is a brunette who personified the role of the professional career woman in the male-dominated oil and gas industry until she decided to semi-retire and be the wife of a highly financially successful man. Red is the warm and fuzzy sister, while Black is the ultimate pragmatic. We hope our differences will help you see the important issues in your life with new perspective – maybe from the other side of the fence, or as the devil's advocate – or perhaps you'll empathize with Red or with Black. Most importantly, we hope we can help you clarify what matters to you, rather than worrying about what matters to anybody else. - See more at: http://www.redandblackbooks.com

From an early age, Cynthia lived out of her comfort zone and really went for it in life. She grew up in a very small town in Massachusetts where there was not much opportunity. She always knew she wanted to do something big with her life and not let anything get in her way of achieving extraordinary success. Cynthia achieved high level positions in the Connecticut prison system, became a private investigator in Las Vegas, Nevada, has run Security and Corporate Investigation units in the Hotel/Casino/Resort Industry and is a successful entrepreneur running her mentoring company for women 'SmartChic'. She also has a Master's Degree in Counseling Psychology. Cynthia's 20 years of work experience taught her about behavior patterns in people and the reality that many people do not make the best decisions to live their best life. Cynthia has a gift of being able to authentically relate to women, find the core reasons why they are not moving positively forward in life, then inspires them through her mentoring to positively transform themselves into living much happier, more successful lives.
SmartChic was started because Cynthia knew her passion and gift was to inspire women to know they can do absolutely anything they put their mind to in life. But, they must first take full responsibility and stop worrying about what others want them to do. She teaches women to focus on what makes them happy in life and to do what they want to do!

Artisan Bread in Five Minutes A Day
The Discovery That Revolutionizes Home Baking
From Library Staff
Of all the no-knead bread making books, I remain faithful to Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day. They also have Healthy Bread in Five Minutes a Day, but I've found I'm a peasant loaf sorta gal.
From the critics
Community Activity
Add a CommentIt's nice to be able to pull some dough out of the refrigerator and bake a quick loaf if you need it but if you don't have the space to rise or store it you're left with cutting the recipe in half, at which point you may as well bake a normal loaf of bread. I didn't try some of the other recipes but the basic one was yeasty and salty which I could have worked with to my taste but the consistancy was lacking. Also, the dough is extremely sticky and kind of annoying to work with. I do like the technique of putting water in the broiler and use that all the time and I will probably give this book another shot but for now I'll move on to other methods.
I'm now in the middle of my second batch of artisan bread using these methods, and the flavours just keep getting better. My guess is that the commenter who called the flavours and textures "immature" didn't let it rise or grow for as long as is called for. This bread does require patience (or in my case, forgetting about it) but the result is a flavourful loaf with a crisp crunch. Admittedly, I was sceptical at first - no kneading? how does that work? - and when I made my very first batch I also made a back-up loaf using a tried-and-true recipe "just in case." I've never wanted to do that since - instead I just have fresh baked bread on a daily basis, in perfectly sized loaves that can be eaten before going stale. I'll never knead again!
The concept is that you prepare a batch of dough that you keep in the fridge for up to 10 days. Each day, you take some out, let it sit for 20-40 minutes, then bake. Actually handling time is about 5-10 minutes per day. I tried the light whole wheat bread recipe, but increasing the whole wheat to about 50%. I had to add more liquid as the author said it is wetter than you are used to. It made the best loaf of bread I think I've ever made. It had a beautiful texture. I didn't use the water bath because I prefer a soft-crust. Sadly, I didn't have any rye flour on hand to try the peasant breads, so I recommend picking some up before you get the book. Finally, if you like bagels, there is a recipe for New York/American bagels and a different recipe for the Montreal bagel. Don't worry, you can use your regular store bought yeast and you don't have to make a sponge or sourdough. It works! Most recipes are vegan, others can be easily adapted.
Can you really make an Artisan Bread in only five minutes a day?
Not exactly. It looks good, but the flavor and textures of these breads are "immature". The texture can be a bit gummy, and the flavor of some of these breads are a bit lacking.
Honestly, once recipe for ciabatta, baguette and pan toscano!
It is a good introduction into bread baking for the novice, since you can get a crusty product better than you could with a bread machine.
Serious bakers should stick to the more time-honored methods for more complex flavors and textures.
I always thought bread baking was too scientific for a slacker like me to make. No more! The basic recipe is hard to screw up, but leaves a lot of room for perfectionists to work, too. Turns out the definition of "bread" is a surprisingly loose one. A great guide for artists looking to bake bread to their own personal taste!
I was skeptical of this book and finally tried a recipe (the first one) the day before it was due back. Honestly, it was easy and tasty bread. The five minutes refers to the mixing time - and if you use the same container for mixing and storing, you save yourself the clean-up! Will be taking it out again to try the Montreal bagels and pita recipes. I liked that other recipes were included too - like toppings and sandwiches.
I consider our home now "off the bread grid" because of this book. I have rarely bought bread since reading this book 6 months ago, and it takes me less than 5 minutes each day I make the bread; I don't count the time I wait for the oven to heat or dough to rise, only 'work time'. I think that is what the authors were referring to.
It takes 5 minutes (or less) to make the dough -- don't expect to have the bread ready in 5 minutes. Anyone who has kneaded bread dough will notice the difference. I can mix the dough while I am waiting for the kettle to boil for tea. And you don't need to bother with all the equipment the book lists. I mix 1/2 batch of the dough and store it in a 2L frozen yogurt container. Then I bake small loaves in the toaster oven on parchment paper (no baking stone, pizza peel or cornmeal required). I bake all of my own bread and this book has changed what used to be a chore into a minor task -- but I do need to find a new upper body workout!
I made the dough, let it rise for two hours, let it sit in the fridge over night, cut off a bit to form a loaf. Let it rise again for 40 minutes and then let it bake for 30.
Still looking for the 5 minutes day bit.
However, the bread is good and the recipes relatively easy to make. Just don't think it will really take 5 minutes. Maybe I missed that chapter?

Comments about '8 types of bullies and how to handle them'

I agree with a few aspects of the article. It sounds like an invitation for people to blame others whenever they feel inadequate in some way. There is far to much of the "blame the other guy" attitude in our society today. It seems that this silent and insidious trend is more prevalent and damaging to our society than bullying. Perhaps you should pen an article on that.

Bullying is real, and needs to be addressed today. However, this article falls into the category of "knowing just enough to be dangerous". There is so much more information needed in each category. One must study it deeper to obtain real knowledge that would be helpful. A truly passive aggressive person is rarely a victim, but makes dishonest choices designed to help him/herself at the expense of others.

While the article gives some good advice, sometimes the best rememdy is to stand up for oneself, either by fighting back (literally or verbally) or by publicly scolding the bully. Wisdom is knowing when to do so, and when not to. The overall best remedy for bullying is a healthy self-image and personal confidence.

Our teen has been dealing with a "frenemy" bully for years, and I think those are the worst kind: friend in name only, but they're really out to tear you down. Frenemy was found out and has been reprimanded by parents, which only heightened aggression away from parental supervision. I talked to another parent whose son went through the same torment. The bully was in church, scouts, and school with her son. It finally took a powerful threat from a kid on the wrestling team, challenging the bully to a fight at school for his treatment of the victim, for the bully to back down, and that was their senior year. (No fight ensued, but the whole school wanted to see Bully humbled.) After that, the bully became almost cordial. Why is it that violence and threats were the only language that got through to the bully?

I hate bullies.
Everybody but the bully hates bullies (that is until
THEY get bullied by somebody more powerful than they are). Bullies just make
life miserable.
I agree with these ideas in the article, including
the comment above that sometimes you just have to stand up for yourself.
When I was in high school I was picked on by 2 kids. Since then
I've noticed that I'm much more capable to stand up for myself and get
in a bully's face if need be. The last time that happened I ended up
literally about 6 inches from a complete stranger's nose, face to face, so
close I could see his lip was quivering. Mine were not. I was plenty angry and
let him know it and I was not going to back down. I didn't even think
about backing down, even if it came to blows.
Afterwards I thought
that I should have let his offense roll off my back. Yet on the other hand I
was extremely proud that I was not only willing, but able, to stand up for
It's a fine line.
Good luck to us all to find

Channing Shows Off His Shaved Head During a Lunch Date With Jenna
Channing Tatum grabbed lunch with Jenna Dewan in Beverly Hills yesterday. Channing recently shaved his head and gave a glimpse of his new hairdo under a knit cap. The couple is back in LA after a holiday getaway to St. Barts, where pregnant Jenna Dewan wore a bikini for walks on the beach with Channing.
They both took advantage of the chance to get away between projects. Channing spent the tail end of 2012 in Pittsburgh on the set of Foxcatcher. Jenna, meanwhile, saw her Lifetime movie She Made Them Do It air in December. Now, they're both looking forward to the joint project of expanding their family in 2013.

Jenna looks so adorable! I'm so happy Channing isn't off doing films. He can spend quality time with her.

Since the search feature is disabled, I can't find the recent threads about the Edge, but I thought one of them mentioned that there are times when non-Edge age kids were allowed to participate each day. They just had to leave as soon as the activity was done. They couldn't hang out there. I could be wrong, though. Hoping somebody who has been there recently knows for sure! It would be nice for all these 10 1/2 and 11 yo girls to be able to hang out together!
Well there's always the pool and sports deck too right? My TA says it depends on the number of kids in each age group and the makeup of each segment. If there are enough 11-14 yr olds that the Edge is full they will be strict with the age cut offs. But if there is room and the majority of the group isn't say 14 yr olds then there is a possibility on an individual basis if the two are bffs. We just have to see when we are on the ship.
Interesting, my travel agent just told me that he has to wait 5 days before they will send me new ones for free. I never got the original packet and he doesn't have it either. So on Monday, just two weeks before I board a plane for Florida, he will be calling for my luggage tags. This is just ridiculous. What happens if I never get the package??? I'm so frustrated right now.
I guess I don't understand why your docs are going to your TAs at all...We book all of our cruises with a TA and our docs come straight to us.
I don't get it either. I've only taken one other Disney cruise, in November 2011, and the docs came straight to me. I just can't figure it out. The interesting part is that I booked this cruise while on board that November 2011 cruise and they added my TA to it because he had booked the original.
I called back again today..still did not ask me any security questions with the reservation which makes me very uneasy about their security policies but this CM now told me that between 15-20 days before we sail, I can request new tags which will be sent UPS with tracking and she keep saying about the book but I'm not paying $50. She also told me they are only stickers and she has no idea what the DME tags are then later on said that they are nothing like the DME tags since she knows about them?! Really. Then told me the tags are taken off when delivered to the the room which I've found out is not true either. I'm not sure why this is so difficult for them to reprint tags and mail them. DME does it without question and for free. Very frustrating.
My family and I are first time cruisers with all of you. Since the search feature is disabled I was hoping that someone could tell me how the on board credits work. I know we have $150 in credits but how do you keep track of what you have spent while you are on cruise? Is there a way to do a balance inquiry or something? With having a 17 year old who will probably abandon us for the teen club I am worried about him overspending.
I think that you can see your account on your TV on the Dream. If not, then you can always stop by guest services and get a print out anytime.
Here's a picture of our family on our first cruise, last March. (Animator's Pallete, our favorite dinner.) One twin has had her braces off since then, the youngest now has contacts and they've all gotten taller. We've all matured a little in the past year, but we still resemble this photo. Sorry the photo is so huge.
The package was mailed via regular mail on 2/7, so it has to be missing for 25 days before they will re-send for free. It is now 20 days missing, so we have to wait until Monday before my TA can request a resend without the $50 charge. They said that my TA can request that the package be sent directly to me and it should take a week (printing and sending) to get here via UPS. However, if I don't get it, it's not really a problem. They will provide me with luggage tags at the port or at my resort (we'll be at Bay Lake Tower prior to the cruise). I have already done the online check-in and have my signature documents all printed, so they will check me in with that. So....moral of the story.....tell your TA to mark your reservation so that all documentation is mailed directly to you, the passenger. And, if you don't get it, don't sweat it.
When I called DCL they told me the same thing. Mine was also mailed on the 7th and I haven't gotten it, and I live in Central FL. I'm going to wait 5 more days and then request it again along with the UPS tracking. Glad to hear that someone else has gone through the same thing..although it stinks!!!
LUGGAGE TAGS ARRIVED!!!! The original package never came but the tags only that I had requested were post marked on the 28th and arrived in a day from Lake Buena Vista. I'm 100% sure that the package with the book/tags was never sent, lost, or arrived at my apt complex and was put in someone else's box and it was thrown out. 22 days to go!
My family is looking forward to cruising on the Dream. We've cruised a couple times before, but never with Disney. We're from the St. Louis area, and our daughter is 9 years old. We're interested in participating in the "Fish Extender" game - just read about it and think it's a great idea!! Does anyone know if a list has been started for our cruise yet?
Welcome to disboards! Congratulations on your first Disney cruise - it took just one and we were hooked - I imagine your family will be as well! My DS is also 9 and I'm sure he and your daughter will meet up in the kids club some time during the cruise. The FE list closed on 2/15 so that everyone could complete their gifts before sailing. I'm so sorry but on your next DCL cruise (I'm willing to bet there will be a next one!) sign up early as not to miss out on the fun. Not to worry, you will have lots of fun activities to keep you busy. Enjoy your first Disney cruise!
We still haven't made arrangements for transportation from our WDW Resort to PortCanaveral. How is everyone else getting there? Looking for other options than the Disney Shuttle. Thanks
Welcome and have a great cruise. I have a DS8, so I'm sure he'll be running into your daughter in the kids club.

Why does coldstone ice cream melt so quickly?

- Follow
Is it just me or does Coldstone ice cream melt faster than you can manage to sit down to eat it?
re: fldhkybnva
I have no idea, but we tried Cold Stone once & NEVER AGAIN. Gluey, wallpaper-paste-like consistency with non-existent flavor for over-the-top prices + pre-pubescent servers jumping up & down touting all the toppings.
No thanks.
re: Bacardi1
Yes! I like the idea perhaps but for some reason it has exactly what you described "a gluey, wallpaper-paste-like consistency" which seems to stay with you long after you've gobbled up the dribbling melted "ice cream." However, most people that I know personally love the stuff!
re: fldhkybnva
I know people who adore it. So glad to find others who feel like I do. It's probably the only ice cream I've encountered that I just won't eat.
Even though its being mixed on a chilled counter the ice cream is being mixed and exposed to room temp air throughout it. If its a scoop of ice cream there is a core at a constant freezing temp which the outer layers exposed to the air melts but the core maintains its temp. When you mash it up there is no core anymore.
Now add to the mix that most of the ingredients added to the ice cream are either room temp or chilled but not to below freezing so that immediately raises the median temp of the cup of ice cream as well.
Those are the two main reasons in my opinion.
re: jrvedivici
Duh! I clearly overlooked the fact that the singing crew introduce a lot more kinetic energy than ice cream straight out of the freezer.
SWEET CREAM ICE CREAM (Cream, Nonfat Milk, Milk, Whey, Sugar, Corn Syrup, Guar Gum, Cellulose Gum, Carrageenan, Mono &
Diglycerides, Polysorbate 80, and Annatto Extract), VANILLIN AN ARTIFICIAL FLAVOR, VANILLA BEAN SPECS (Water, Alcohol, Salt ))From their website. It's a chemical bomb.

re: treb
Yea, that makes sense to me now as I completely disregarded that huge factor. I guess I was associating the melting with the texture but I think the texture issue is a whole different issue. I guess my thread should have read "why does Coldstone melt so quickly into a gluey, tacky mess?"
Next time get the Jell-O Pudding Ice Cream at Coldstone, which supposedly does not *melt*

JHutson describes a segment of the bame in which a goat-footed, horned demon emerges from a UN Humbee to eat the dead body of a Christian sniper"
"But then one of your tanks gacks the demon in a big fireball -- along with three nurses from the U.N. Now in a gnarlier game, there might be demon and nurse giblets hanging from the lamp posts, but in Left Behind: Eternal Forces, there's no blood and guts, just dead bodies. ... Apparently this cleanness makes the slaughter of New Yorkers who refuse to convert, somehow more Christ-like, just as when the Christian commandos shout 'Praise the Lord!' after a fresh New Yorker kill."
"But for now, the apocalyptic battle lulls. ... And on one of the Times Square digital billboards, there's a mesmerizing video clip playing. It's a promo for a PG-13 movie. The graphics are wicked good: flash video with radio sound. And it's stupid funny. Your voice cracks as you laugh at the video billboard playing in Times Square above the gigantamongous pile of bloodless, dead New Yorkers. You watch the video play through its 15-second loop, unaware that this in-game ad is also watching you."
"It's cutting-edge Israeli technology -- a piece of software inserted directly into Left Behind: Eternal Forces, software that cannot be blocked or removed -- and without your knowledge or permission, it tracks you. This in-game ad software records how often you play the video game, at what time of day and for how long, what game play areas you visit (like Times Square, Soho, Chinatown, or the United Nations Building), which video ads and product placements you view, where your computer is located geographically, and who you are demographically. It monitors your choices and behavior, collates data, and reports back in real-time to... whom? For what purposes? Do you know?" 2
We have no way to verify whether this is a valid criticism of the game. It seems unlikely that a major video game producer would resort to such tactics.
The spyware comment may be due to a misunderstanding of one function of the game. It allegedly connects to the Internet and downloads updated advertising posters that appear on the sides of buildings in the game.

Chris Williams continued:
"Aimed at 13 to 34-year-old males, Left Behind: Eternal Forces casts the player as a director of God's Earthly militia, left behind in the Rapture to roam the streets of New York, battling Satan's minions and shooting unbelievers."
"With plans to distribute 1 million copies in evangelical "megachurches" nationwide pre-Christmas, Eternal Forces has attracted criticism from religious and secular commentators for its pushing of a violent brand of Christian supremacy. Christian anti-videogame violence campaigner Jack Thompson said: 'It's absurd. You can be the Christians blowing away the infidels, and if that doesn't hit your hot button, you can be the Antichrist blowing away the Christians'."
"In an interview on the series' website Greg Bauman of Left Behind Games explains: 'Left Behind: Eternal Forces will help readers get a sense of the conflict and chaos of the time period portrayed in Left Behind and live out how they would defend themselves and their faith from the Antichrist and his Global Peace Keeping Forces.' The United Nations, already organ of satanic machinations for many on the Christian far-right, features strongly in the game. Goat-footed demons reportedly emerge from UN peacekeeping Humvees."
"One reviewer noted: 'The only way to accomplish anything positive in the game is to 'convert' nonbelievers into faithful believers, and the only alternative to this is outright killing them'."® 1
The Campaign to Defend the Constitution and the Christian Alliance for Progress, two liberal/progressive Christian groups, asked Wal-Mart on 2006-DEC-12 to not stock the video game.
"It's an incredibly violent video game. Sure, there is no blood. (The dead just fade off the screen.) But you are mowing down your enemy with a gun. It pushes a message of religious intolerance. You can either play for the 'good side' by trying to convert nonbelievers to your side or join the Antichrist." 3
"So, under the Christmas tree this year for little Johnny is this allegedly Christian video game teaching Johnny to hate and kill?" 3
Tara Raddohl, a Wal-Mart spokesperson, said that they have no plans to pull the game from their shelves. She said:
"We look at the community to see where it will sell. We have customers who are buying it and really haven't received a lot of complaints about it from our customers at this time."
The Associated Press commented:
"[Troy] Lyndon, the Left Behind Games CEO, said parents who have seen the game are thrilled. They say it will instill good Christian values in their children -- and they're especially excited about the "pray" button." 4

Lukas Podolski not bothered by criticism of Inter Milan performances
Inter Milan loan signing Lukas Podolski says he needs to live with criticism after being named the second-worst Serie A capture of January.
Podolski, 29, has yet to open his account for the Nerazzurri and has struggled for form since arriving until the end of the season from Arsenal.
The Germany international's recent performances, which included a corner that did not make it into Fiorentina's box on Sunday, have led to him finishing as runner-up behind AC Milan's Alessio Cerci for Gazzetta Dello...

I am trying to install Twitter-Python and I am just not getting it. According to everything I've read this should be easy. I have read all that stuff about easy_install, python setup.py install
, command lines, etc, but I just don't get it. I downloaded the "twitter-1.9.4.tar.gz", so I now have the 'twitter-1.9.4' folder in my root 'C:\Python27' and tried running
>>> python setup.py install
in IDLE... and that's not working. I was able to install a module for yahoo finance and all I had to do was put the code in my 'C:\Python27\Lib' folder.
How are these different and is there a REALLY BASIC step-by-step for installing packages?

Hero of the game inverted Y. He lives in the world of letters. He has the special ability to turn the world. Find all the secrets of this unusual world.
Rated 3 / 5 stars
Thanks for the hint in the beginning on the
top left, I do need to perform such actions before playing this. I like the graphics but there really isn't very much flavor in the game
Rated 1.5 / 5 stars
I find the game too slow, it lacks of action and challenges (and the challenges that it does has don't seem to be well planned or tested), the story has no sense at all and it's not even visually appealing. The only thing I like about this game is the idea of making a world based on letters.
Rated 1 / 5 stars
Character won't move
Some strange reason the inverted y wont move at all. though you get a 2 for the art style.
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
Let me be perfectly honest
I didn't look into this game expecting much. I thought it was another one of those crappy art games that has no substance or challenge whatsoever. While I did a couple of laughs at the beginning from how dramatic it was "Sometimes I want to die" But as I continued to play it, the stages became more and more challenging. I didn't finish it on my own, but that's mainly because I was too frustrated with the arrows on my keyboard constantly freezing up on me at the worst possible moments and killing me. While I'm really getting sick of art games, and feel that this would've been better without you trying to be edgy(which isn't so edgy when everyone else is doing the same thing) this did do what I feel games should do: offer a decent challenge. So I'll give you a 7 for your effort. Just, next time, lose the emo crap.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
I like it because the y was inverted and everything was made out of letters

Several dramatic changes in international relations at the end of the 20th century seemed to suggest that rivalries (and the conflicts that often result) between states were receding. The Soviet-American Cold War ended, but the Indo-Pakistani feud refuses to go away. Argentina and Britain seem most unlikely to fight again over the Falklands, but North and South Korea persist in maintaining their hostile divided status.
The question remains therefore-is conflict increasing or decreasing? To answer that question, it is important to first understand how the rivalry processes-and therefore the genesis of conflict-work.
Handbook to International Rivalries examines the roughly 200 strategic rivalries-two states that view each other as threatening competitors to the point that they categorize their antagonists as enemies-that have been responsible for nearly 80 percent of the warfare of the past two hundred years. After a preface from J. David Singer, the founder of The Correlates of War Project, this reference delves into standardized narratives of the rivalries that include discussions of their origins, the levels of conflict achieved and the resolutions. Handbook to International Rivalries also includes a comprehensive bibliography and a chronological listing of rivalries by region, time and type.

An afternoon hiking North Percy Peak in Stark, which overlooks Christine Lake and the Forest Society-conserved Kauffman Forest, does wonders as a cure for information overload. (COURTESY/BRENDA CHARPENTIER)
Clearing the mind; the cure for TMOYMS is found outdoors
The malady manifests itself in various ways, all of which make you look like an idiot. It's driving away from the Dunkin' Donuts drive-thru without waiting for your change. It's putting a box of rice away in the refrigerator. It's throwing a stick of butter into the microwave to soften it without realizing that if you leave the paper on it and hit "high," you might wind up dealing with a little kitchen fire.
Just to be clear, this is not early-onset dementia. My absent-mindedness comes and goes as the stress amount varies, and for the most part, I'm perfectly calm and safe to be around.
While the TV news anchor is bombarding us with horrible headlines, a completely different news feed is crawling along the bottom of the screen with more information. The Internet is littered with blinking ads and distracting pop-ups and enticements to click on stories about "Five foods you should NEVER eat" or "Celebrities who have killed people." Add that to the frustration of trying - and usually failing - to remember passwords, and it's a wonder we don't all just throw our gadgets to the floor and stomp on them.

Bison the Barn Dog!
I took Bison out to my friends barn and the stable she boards at and he just acted like a natural farm dog. There are two Australian Cattle Dog's out at the barn, Max and Shooter. Max is exactly Bison's age, and they instantly stuck together after meeting. He was surprisingly relaxed around the horses as well. Overall, he had so much fun, exercise, socialization.. and got completely filthy. We also noticed, including Chip the Aussie, they were all herding breeds!
Handsome Bison all muddy and tired. Last edited by LittleJaws; 06-13-2014 at 09:04 PM. Reason: wrong picture c: |

Love the pictures,thanks for sharing them,
Great looking Pup. Of coarse the GSD will always have my Heart,but I have to admit The Australian Cattle Dogs are amazing,how they can run so fast with shorter legs you have to see for your self. Last edited by Romany; 06-14-2014 at 07:30 PM. Reason: Typo |

I know what you mean about Australian Cattle Dogs,
There always thinking mmm what can I get into now. That's why I love GSD's so much while they will work and play as hard, they can relax and just enjoy lounging around the house with you. |
