I stayed here for two nights and it was excellent. The place is simple, but clean which I think is the most important thing in a hostel.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I chose this card because it was the perfect companion to the invitation. Paper quality, finish and font worked well with the invitation which did not have any response cards as part of a suite."
"So happy with the way they came out. Fast shipping and love the constant discounts to make invitations affordable. Recommending to all my friends getting married"
"The cards were exactly as we expected them and will fit perfectly with our wedding theme at a hotel that is on the national historic register!"
"I purchased this response card to go along with my invitations. We loved the simple yet modern and fun design. We had many customizations applied - our colors are yellow, black, and white, so we had the green text changed to 'burst' and the remaining text was in black. Rather than will/will not attend, we put "can't wait!/toasts from afar", and underneath, we made a note directing the guests to indicate the number of attendees on each line. Also, we are having a buffet, so rather than the entree choices, we requested that the guests share an email address with us. We also went with the non-textured paper and were very satisfied. The designers executed our requests perfectly, and we couldn't be happier! We can't wait to mail them out."
"I purchased this invitation in the extra thick paper. I am so happy with everything about my choice. It is easy to read slick and modern, yet classic. I used the font created by the designer and capitalized all proper words. Paper Divas' customer service was excellent."

I really like this lipstick, my favourite for the winter. On my nc15 skin this is a gorgeous mlbb with a soft sheen and pretty good staying power. I can wear a light coat during the day for work but I also like it in the evening with smokey eyes and dewy skin. Although I'm fair I live in a hot country and when the summer arrives I tan quite a bit, usually going to around a nc25 shade. As soon as my skin gets this dark I stop wearing this, i find that against tanned skin it takes on a kind of cool, greyish undertone that's pretty unflattering.
I bought this last year when I was looking for a nice neutral that I could pack into my makeup bag for those caught out without makeup days. I love this shade for the fact that while it is neutral it still has a hint of pink without being too overpowering of a shade.
blah. I normally love MAC l/s but this one is way too gritty for me. For some reason the color turns out brown on my lips too. FAIL.

this colour comes out WAY too dark on me! it's a gorgeous lipstick, though. i've tried altering my application technique & still, i just can't get it to look right :(
Viva Glam V is a permanent shade in the Viva Glam Family and was introduced in March 2004. It is a lustre formula and is described as a neutral pink with pearl. This is my all time favorite neutral lip color. It is the only lipstick I EVER keep a back up of. If MAC were to discontinue this shade there is a good chance I would cry. This is the perfect on the go lipstick and will go with any makeup look. I do find the finish to be a little frosty because of all the pearl in it but I don't mind it at all. It is very flattering on my NC20 skintone. The staying power is ok but it could be better.
Some similar shades include Maybelline #205 Nearly There and Rimmel Sunset.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I've had this for about 2 years. I've heard all the great reviews so I ordered it. BORING!. I don't see what the fuss is about. Its a pretty ok color in the tube but blah on me. It smells nice and packaging is cute. But, tooo expensive. Will not repurchae. I can find a NYX or WW lipstick for way cheaper and better color. I have a 3 dollar lipstick called Forbidden Love made by LA Girls which is a beautiful neutral. So, ladies you can have this one.
After reading about so many Mac products and I own two eyeshadows from several years ago that have lasted forever.... I finally decided to cave in and try a lipstick. I ordered from Macy's online as I had a gift card and got free shipping. My package was delayed by a snowstorm last week but when I got it late last week my enthusiasm for the product had worn off. I tried it on Super Bowl Sunday. It's okay. It smells good. The color is pretty, a little shimmery but does not stay on the lips very long. I have cheaper lipsticks, like Maybelline or Avon, that I like better. This Viva Glam Shade compares with my Lancome Coquette but the Lancome lasts longer. I won't spend $14 on another lipstick from Mac.
Update: This lipstick dries my lips out so bad that I have chapped lips for days after using it, no matter if I use balm under or over. FAIL.
One of my fave lipsticks from MAC!! I like to top this with Viva Glam V lipglass. I also like to pair this with Secret Blush.
I LOVE this lipstick shade!!! I wear this everyday for school, because it's so natural yet very sophisticated. I love how I can also wear it with a very bold eye and wear this color to make my look very balanced. The texture is also very smooth with low shimmer, just the way I like it. I haven't tried the lip gloss yet, but I bet it's just as pretty.

Giffords wristband worn by husband's twin in space
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — Astronaut Scott Kelly returned to Earth wearing a wristband for his sister-in-law, the wounded Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.
In a NASA photo, Kelly displays the blue wristband with a peace sign, a heart and the name "Gabby" shortly after landing in Kazakhstan on Wednesday from the International Space Station.
NASA spokeswoman Kylie Clem said the crew of space shuttle Discovery carried it up to the space station last month.
Kelly's identical twin brother Mark wore an identical wristband when he announced that he was resuming training for a shuttle flight in April. Mark Kelly is commander of shuttle Endeavour's last flight.
Scott Kelly was commander of the orbiting complex when Giffords was shot in the head in January in Tucson, Ariz.

I had my head gaskets replaced a couple months ago. Ever since I feel like the car just sounds louder. I don't remember ever really being able to hear the engine when I would accelerate but now I can.
After I got the gaskets replaced it was still a little cold out so I turned the heat on, drove for about an hour and a half straight with no problems. A few hours later I went all the way back home and ran to the store. When I got in my car and started it the heat was already set to on and it sounded REALLY loud, it was kind of like a whirry and buzzy noise I guess would be the best way to describe it. Ever since it only does it sometimes. It's the same thing with the A/C. Could this have anything to do with having my head gaskets replaced? Do you think these two problems are related?

Generally speaking, most of the nightlife action geared towards tourists is found in South Pattaya, with the densest concentration of bars, Go-Go bars, massage parlours and discos along the famous neon-drenched strip known as Walking Street (stretching from Soi 13 to 16). Unique and unruly, it's shut off to traffic during the evening, with raunchy shows, bar games, competing stereos and lots of booze 'all combining forces to make one huge party zone. Vying to satisfy crowds comprised mainly of men are armies of girls so friendly that even shy guys can confidently get cozy. If only for the 'I've-seen-it' experience rather than 'I've done it' enjoyment, it has to be experienced at least once.
At the bottom of Soi Diamond on Walking Street, Airport Club opens early in the afternoon (but it's known for the later the better.) Girls at the front dressed up in their gimmick light-blue air hostess uniform, but the others inside (as can be expected) wear slightly less clothing. The bar has stages and poles, a shower area in the centre and a paddle play bed at the back. Prices of drinks are reasonable.
Opening Hours: 16:00 – late
Location: Opposite Soi Diamond entrance
Forget all you've seen at Pattaya's typical pole-dancing dens and try out a new experience at this strip club-slash-gogo bar. With about 30 shows running each night – and these are actually well choreographed – you will not get bored easily. Shows begin around 10:00 and are 'classy' enough to appeal to a wider audience. There's no cover charge, but expect high price tags for drinks.
Opening Hours: 20:00 - 02:00
Location: Soi 15, Off Walking Street
At this snazzy open-fronted bar/club, Southeast Asian J-Los wriggle and writhe beside blingin' backpackers. Situated in the heart of Walking Street, Candy Shop plays good funky, soul, hip-pop and R&B tunes. The live band is raucous and fun.
Opening Hours: 20:00 – late
Location: Walking Street, next door to Lucifer Disko TK
Highly recommended by many Go-Go goers, Club Boesche is a recently arrived split-level lesbian Go-Go. It has a large Jacuzzi-style tub sunk into the floor in front of the bar which is occupied in shifts by pairs of uninhibited ladies non-stop from 20:00 until late at night. Affordable priced drinks and no entry fee.
Opening Hours: 20:00 – 01:00 (later on weekends.)
Location: in Soi 16, off Walking Street (connects to Phratamnak Road)
Located upstairs from i-Bar, Club Insomnia features stylish décor, an excellent sound and lighting system and a large dance floor and pool tables. Expect an occasional DJ event which makes the place a little more lively on Fridays, Saturdays, and Holidays.
Opening Hours: 21:00 – late
Location: Walking Street, South Pattaya
FLB Bar is an air-conditioned bar with a live band playing old-school hits mixed with some pop culture tunes. Guests can also enjoy a conversation with the bar's hostesses.
Opening Hours: 20:00 – 02:00
Location: 547/34, M. 10, Soi BJ, Walking Street
This groovy restaurant and bar is famous for its deep red setting and lively atmosphere, complemented by cheesy chart hits and live band. Also, the bar serves delicious food and has pool tables as well as large projector screen displaying ESPN and Star Sports.
Opening Hours: 17:00 – late
Location: Walking Street, near Yakuza Burger
Sinful, sweaty hip hop fun. The big main room with an underground cave-like décor, stalactites and devil faces resembles hell. However, if you like live hip hop blasting from speakers bigger than many of the girls who flock here, this might just be heaven. Double charges for westerners (drinks), but free entry.
Opening Hours: 20:00 – late
Location: near Soi Diamond on Walking Street, South Pattaya
Maxie's Bar is an open-air drinking spot with a comfortable and friendly atmosphere. It offers a full range of beers and spirits with lots of young sexy ladies who are eager to entertain and please. No food available, though there are plenty of stalls nearby. Happy hour is from 18:00 – 20:00. There's a pool table, too.
Opening Hours: 18:00 – 01:00
Location: Soi 16, the end of Walking Street
An old established disco from way back. Heats up about 01:00. Several other 'Marine Discos operate inside Marine Plaza on Walking Street, open until early morning hours.
Opening Hours: 21:00 – 02:00
Location: 114, Walking Street, South Pattaya
Don't be misled by its name. This is not the place to go for a cabaret show, though it offers a same-same but different experience. Located on the upper level of King Seafood Restaurant, you couldn't possibly miss the Moulin Rouge as it has a large display window at the front, occupied by two young ladies doing pole dancing to get the costumers inside. Now you know what this place offers.
Opening Hours: 20:00 – late
Location: Walking Stret, Upper level of King Seafood Restaurant
Roxy offers complete adult entertainment with choreographed girl shows rotating regularly to give the dancers a chance to drink and chat with customers from 22:00 until around 02:00.
Opening Hours: 20:00 – 02:00
Location: Midway down Walking Street, next to Club Insomnia
Situated half way down the Walking Street, Sweethearts A Go-go is a narrow but long single shophouse-style bar. It has four dancing stages on two sides, with a couple (or more) birds in bikinis on each. Draft beers and ladies drinks served at attractive prices and even cheaper during their happy hours. Quite a bargain place to stop for a drink or two.
Opening Hours: 20:00 – late
Location: 98/14 Walking Street
The Blues Factory has two live bands on its books. Earthy blues, R&B and rock each night, have earned this relatively long-standing venue (open since 2001) 'the best live music in Pattaya' moniker.
Opening Hours: 20:30 – late
Location: Soi Lucky Star, Walking Street
A famous and rather flashy albino discotheque where everything from walls to stools to sofas is white. Tourists and off-duty bar girls cavort to live rock, pop and hip-hop, alongside DJ's.
Opening Hours: 21:00 – 02:00
Location: 139, Walking Street, South Pattaya
This establishment boasts one of the best and most exciting a Go-Go bars on Walking Street. The recent management of the place has brought along plenty of new hotties as well as affordable drinks. The bar has an overhead dancing area and is never short of dancers. These ladies certainly know how to entertain while you're enjoying your beer. It's a place to experience.
Opening Hours: 20:00 – 01:00 (or later on weekend)
Location: 2nd floor of Convent Garden Complex on Soi 16, end of Walking Street

Does the uniform make the man?
THIS is the story of a uniform - shoes shined to a vulgar glow, knife crease in the trousers, hat tipped at a rakish angle, and, of course, a row of ribbons on the chest. The story begins at the time Ollie North was parading his Marine uniform - so winningly, in fact, that complete strangers wanted to nominate him for president on the spot. As Ollie appeared before his congressional committee, an old friend - an old vet - reappeared in our life, shoulders squared, chin up, also reliving his glory days.
A coincidence, it must be emphasized. Our friend was not coming out of mothballs, so to speak, in response to the colonel's subliminal recruiting. But then, the whole point of this story is that men in uniform are never really a coincidence.
Our friend is recently retired, groping a little desperately for his identity as retired persons do when stripped of the ID badge of The Job. As if he feared he might be arrested for vagrancy, our friend hastily posted certifications of his profession, all neatly framed, on his study walls. For over 30 years he was a professor, and the verifying documents - dating back to his high school diploma - defiantly shouted: ``This is who I am, or at least was.''
Alas, these affidavits of a long and honorable career still left him visibly adrift - a man without a country.
Could he perhaps assume the persona of a gentleman farmer, as he had once fancied himself? He hitched up his overalls. He plowed. He planted. The crops grew, more or less. But no new identity grew with them.
What to do? Our old friend dipped recklessly into his IRA and bought a boat - a 20-foot cabin cruiser, as small as they get. Copper-bottom paint filled his garage. New documents descended from his attic - his war record. Photographs of his smiling younger self, slim in a Navy uniform, crowded the diplomas off the wall. His old hat, with tarnished eagle, took its place on a display shelf, just waiting to be saluted. The service ribbons of World War II came vividly to rest on a black velvet background.
It worked! As an old salt, our friend regained his savor. He even joined the Coast Guard Auxiliary, and after all these years he is eligible to wear another uniform - purchased at his own expense.

No Doubt Performs at Gibson Amphitheatre | Pictures
Gwen and Gavin Divide and Conquer on Thanksgiving Weekend
Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale kept busy over the long weekend balancing work and play. Gwen hit the stage with No Doubt at the Gibson Amphitheatre in LA on Saturday night. Gavin took the opportunity to clock some playtime with their sons earlier that day, taking Zuma and Kingston to a Santa Monica park. The father of two watched the boys climb trees and ride bikes, but he also got in on the action himself, taking a spin on Kingston's scooter. On Sunday, they spent another day in the sun, going for a hike with the boys' nanny.
Gwen's weekend show was one of six dates the band will be playing in LA. Since releasing their comeback album in September, they've been performing widely. Just a few weeks ago, they were in Germany for the 2012 MTV EMAs, and they also helped kick off the NFL season in NYC earlier in the Fall. Despite the hectic schedule, the Stefani-Rossdales have taken time-outs to celebrate the holidays. Gwen, Gavin, Kingston, and Zuma marked Thanksgiving with her parents in Southern California last week, and Gwen also spent Halloween trick-or-treating with Zuma in London while she was there for a TV appearance.

Chall03, brings up a very good point. On a CC, the Bimini is usually only over the cockpit, allowing more flexibility to get out in the sunshine on the aft deck, if you choose. Personally, I prefer shade (lots of skin cancer in my gene pool) and I get plenty of outdoors. My wife suffers from a tad of claustrophobia and really wants to get out from under it. Her solution is the foredeck, but not underway. Ironically, she has no problem being cramped in any tight bunk we've been in. But once awake, she is on deck.

Jeffrey Herf: Why Won't Obama Speak Frankly About Iran?
Jeffrey Herf is a professor of history at the University of Maryland, College Park. He is the author, most recently, of Nazi Propaganda for the Arab World.
The world is nearing the point where it is going to have to make some difficult decisions about how to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon—among them, a decision about whether to use military force. Given Iran's deep hostility to the United States and Israel, as well as its history of sponsoring terrorism, the importance of denying Iran a nuclear weapon cannot be overstated.
But, while President Obama says he believes Iran must be denied the bomb, his rhetoric on the subject has been curiously circumscribed. He has not made a major speech explaining to the American and global public why an Iranian nuclear bomb would be a threat to the United States or to the countries of the Middle East. He has not used his bully pulpit to detail the content of Iran's genocidal threats to Israel. He has not explained why an Iranian bomb would doom his hopes for preventing further proliferation of nuclear weapons to other countries. Even as he says things like "America is determined to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon," he has not explained to the country why a policy of containment and deterrence—which worked in the case of the Soviet Union—is deeply problematic in the case of Iran....
First, it is not true that the world "stands as one" regarding stopping Iran's progress towards the bomb. For instance, while China supports some form of economic sanctions, it also continues to buy a great deal of oil from the country. So while the world may "stand as one" in wishing that Iran does not get the bomb, there is no unified position on how to translate this wish into reality....

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
We purchased a VT-58, which immediately broke. When locked it is still possible to pull the door slightly open, which everyone does, and then the motor burns out. Vinotemp's customer service is absolutely horrible - you will never get your money back nor will you get it fixed. Buy a U-Line - we ultimately did, and just wrote off the cost of the Vinotemp.

MeSH | D017488 |
Epidermolytic hyperkeratosis, (also known as Bullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma,[1] Bullous ichthyosiform erythroderma,[2]:482 or bullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma Brocq[3]) is a rare ichthyosis skin disease affecting around 1 in 250,000 people.
It involves the clumping of keratin filaments.[4][5]:562
Epidermolytic hyperkeratosis is a skin disorder that is present at birth. Affected babies may have very red skin (erythroderma) and severe blisters. Because newborns with this disorder are missing the protection provided by normal skin, they are at risk of becoming dehydrated and developing infections in the skin or throughout the body (sepsis).
As affected individuals get older, blistering is less frequent, erythroderma becomes less evident, and the skin becomes thick (hyperkeratotic), especially over joints, on areas of skin that come into contact with each other, or on the scalp or neck. This thickened skin is usually darker than normal. Bacteria can grow in the thick skin, often causing a distinct odor.
Epidermolytic hyperkeratosis can be categorized into two types. People with PS-type epidermolytic hyperkeratosis have thick skin on the palms of their hands and soles of their feet (palmoplantar or palm/sole hyperkeratosis) in addition to other areas of the body. People with the other type, NPS-type, do not have extensive palmoplantar hyperkeratosis but do have hyperkeratosis on other areas of the body.
Epidermolytic hyperkeratosis is part of a group of conditions called ichthyoses, which refers to the scaly skin seen in individuals with related disorders. However, in epidermolytic hyperkeratosis, the skin is thick but not scaly as in some of the other conditions in the group. http://ghr.nlm.nih.gov/condition/epidermolytic-hyperkeratosis [6]
It is possible to classify epidermolytic hyperkeratosis based upon palm and sole hyperkeratosis.[7]
This is a dominant[8] genetic condition caused by mutations in the genes encoding the proteins keratin 1 or keratin 10.
generalized redness; thick, generally dark, scales that tend to form parallel rows of spines or ridges,especially near large joints; the skin is fragile and blisters easily following trauma; extent of blistering and amount of scale is variable
Oral retinoids have proven effective in treating this disorder. Depending on the side effects they may improve the quality of life.[9] Examples are etretinate, acitretin, isotretinoin
Gene Therapy is really the only true therapy on the horizon for sufferers of EHK.
Over the past 10 years since the first EHK mouse model was developed, many ideas have been discussed about how best to cure EHK. Back as far as 1994 researchers were discussing new promising ideas such as topical lotions that would deliver ribozymes in a liposom cream. Ribozymes are a small piece of synthetic RNA which can digest RNA molecules. When cells make a protein from a gene on a chromosome sitting in the nucleus, the gene is first transcribed as a piece of RNA. This RNA is then translated into a protein. Ribozymes can be designed to destroy RNA molecules with specific sequences. In theory, this will stop the production of the protein encoded by the mutant alleles of the gene.
Successful gene therapy solutions have been recently achieved on mouse models by Jiang Chen M.D., a post-doctoral fellow in the laboratory of Dennis Roop, Ph.D., in the Center for Cutaneous Molecular Biology at Baylor College of Medicine. In 1998 they developed an inducible mouse model for epidermolysis hyperkeratosis which is viable, because the expression of a mutant K10 allele can be restricted to a focal area of the skin. "Once the mutant K10 allele is activated in epidermal stem cells by topical application of an inducer, these stem cells continuously give rise to defective progeny that form hyperkeratotic lesions which persist for the life of the mouse. It was observed that partial suppression of the mutant K10 gene may be sufficient to eliminate the disorder."
To test this observation, Dr. Chen and his team of researchers developed siRNAs that target the mutant K10 gene products for degradation, without affecting normal K10 gene products. Dr. Chen observed that under these conditions, an efficient knock-down of mutant, but not normal, K10 genes could be achieved. The results allowed the normal K10 genes to function properly building healthy skin tissues. He claims that these results may prove to be a very vital step forward in forging a novel gene therapy and possible permanent corrective therapy for this debilitating skin disorder.
The challenge has always been how to deliver the siRNA using a topical method or retroviral vectors and ex vivo gene transfer.[10] In 2011/12 a team at Northwestern University claim to have solved the topical delivery of siRNA dilema. Personalized siRNA can be delivered in a commercial moisturizer or phosphate-buffered saline, and do not require barrier disruption or transfection agents, such as liposomes, peptides, or viruses. "Topical application of nucleic acids offers many potential therapeutic advantages for suppressing genes in the skin, and potentially for systemic gene delivery. However, the epidermal barrier typically precludes entry of gene-suppressing therapy unless the barrier is disrupted. We now show that spherical nucleic acid nanoparticle conjugates (SNA-NCs), gold cores surrounded by a dense shell of highly oriented, covalently immobilized siRNA, freely penetrate almost 100% of keratinocytes in vitro, mouse skin, and human epidermis within hours after application." [11] This new discovery may soon offer hope to all suffering from mono-genetic diseases such as EHK. This may lead to promising personalized, topically delivered gene therapy of cutaneous tumors, skin inflammation, and dominant negative genetic skin disorders. It seems in 2013 Clinical trials are being planned to test this new approach.
Until gene therapy solutions finally become reality, EHK sufferers must treat their fragile skin carefully. Most have learned that taking regular extended baths allows patients to care for their fragile skin and keep it manageable. Baths that include sea salt seem to improve the process of softening and removing the thickened skin. Ointments like Petroleum Jelly, Aveeno, and other barrier type ointment help hold the moisture in the skin after a bath.

text: Author has written 20 stories for Life, Nature, General, General, Love, Essay, and Humor. Hi!! I'm a college student who loves reading, playing violin, singing (I don't really sing that well, but I love it), knitting, riding my bike, and lots of other things. My pen name comes from stories that my roommate and I make up about our future as gypsies who travel the globe as street performers. Sometimes I think these stories are the only the things keeping us sane, even though we are both aware that they are unrealistic and romantic. Funny how those things work. I have recently been experimenting with free verse and more modern poetry, but my early poems are rhyming, if that is what you like. I turn to classical music for most of my inspiration, but weather and nature are also influential in my writing. My favorite poets include Tennyson, Byron, Billy Collins, Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes. I highly reccomend them to everyone. My poem Evolution won a small poetry contest at my local library. Needless to say, I was overjoyed. I hope you will take the time to read it and drop a review. I generally write either poetry or short stories. I occasionally attempt to write longer works, but by the time I've written a few chapters, I'm usually so discontented with how the early ones turned out that I get disheartened and don't continue. This might change in the future, but that remains to be decided. I try to return all reviews with thoughtful criticism. Thanks for visiting my profile! |

While there is no doubt that actors Damon Wayans Jr. and Jake Johnson have a great chemistry with each other (as is evident in New Girl), even they cannot save this mediocre, derivative film.
This is another example of a film where the best parts are in the trailer. When I saw the trailer for this film, I was so excited to see it. I laughed along with everyone in the theater! While the film itself did have a few extra funny parts, overall I was disappointed. Some attempted jokes fell flat on me, as well as the rest of the audience. I really did want to laugh more; the film had all the right ingredients for a great action/comedy: great leading cast, awesome supporting characters (Keegan-Michael Key and Rob Riggle usually never disappoint), and a fun concept. But unfortunately, the pieces don't always fit well together, and some parts of the film just feel out of place or unnecessary (I love Natasha Leggero, but her small cameo in the film was completely pointless). There were some decent actions scenes as well, and some interesting twists in the story, but none that you haven't seen before or that couldn't be predicted.
As for the main story, it revolves around two lovable losers who mistakenly attend a masquerade party in cop costumes. After leaving the party in humiliation, they discover that people actually believe they are real cops. As you can predict, things start off fun and silly but quickly escalate as they get in way over their heads. Friendships are tested, lives are put at risk, and the truth eventually comes out. Like I said, you've seen versions of this movie before.
But as stated at the beginning of the film, the saving grace of this movie (and the only thing that makes it worth watching at all) is the great chemistry of Wayans Jr. and Johnson. They play off each other well, and just make sense as a comedy team. Johnson is charming and delightful as the goofball and Wayans Jr. plays a great straight-man (which make the times he does act silly funnier). They are much funnier when they are together on screen than when they are apart. I just hope they get a second chance at a feature-length film to truly show off what they are capable of.
There is some great potential in this film, especially with the comedy team of Wayans Jr. and Johnson, and some genuine laughs (at least if you haven't seen the trailer), but overall this unoriginal, lackluster film falls short, in both the comedy and the action. If you do want to see this film, rent it, but don't waste your hard earned money to see it in theaters. Spend that money on Guardians of the Galaxy instead! :)

Adopt a senior this year or someone with a disability by "Plowing it Forward" and help them with their snow plowing and shoveling. Snow presents an obstacle and burden that endangers the lives of seniors and prevents our seniors and disabled from getting the care and support that their lives depend upon. Seniors that clear their own snow put themselves at serious health risks that can result in bone breaking falls, heart attack and strokes. A little act of kindness this winter could save a life. How powerful is that?

I play in a bunch of dynasty leagues and we have been using Flea's email draft system to run most of our drafts. It runs fine but we run into some problems that require us to work around the current system in ways we really shouldn't have to. Ideally, these improvements are needed at a minimum:
1) A set number of rounds. This is so vital for rookie drafts. Currently the system keeps the draft going until rosters are filled up. This is fine for redraft and small-keeper leagues but every dynasty league I have ever been in has had 4-5 rounds. What we currently have to do is temporarily raise the roster limits to make sure all picks can be safely made then at the end of the draft we have to commish-draft filler players to complete it and then cut them once the draft is over.
2) If a roster is full, the pick needs to be open so that the team can either choose to cut a player to draft a new one, or simply be able to PASS on the pick. At present, if a roster is full, no further picks even exist.
Some minor improvements that might help rookie drafts move more smoothly: Pre-draft queues, draft clock, ability to place individual picks on the trading block.

I would also suggest putting a clock on picks and allow the computer to pick if that time is up. also the option to set a minimum for keepers.

All good suggestions, and are on our agenda. E-mail draft enhancements will likely be added and supported in the near future, but not for this coming year before NFL kickoff.

The American League East
Is a fratricidal beast.
It seems no team alone
Is sure to take the throne.
Instead, each league brother
Goes after one another.

But I can see a future-scan:
It may just end up being,
After all the smoke is clearing,
That on a September morning
It will be the "last team standing."

MEDFORD, Ore. – A local surgery clinic is planning a major expansion that they say could help make Medford a medical tourism destination.
Surgery Center of Southern Oregon plans to start construction mid-July on a wing that would double their gastroenterology clinic. The expansion is expected to halve the waiting time for procedures like colonoscopies from two months to one.
They say they also plan to market it across the country, selling Medford for its high retiree population and innovations in gastroenterology surgeries.
"One of the things they have pioneered here is propofol sedation, which is kind of a light sedation you can use so you don't need an anesthesiologist to do the anesthesia," said Surgery Center of Southern Oregon Executive Director Michael Westmiller.
Westmiller says they can offer gastroenterology surgeries at half the price of many other places around the country. The clinic's 13,477 square foot expansion is slated to open next March.

A raft will tow a Kite Aerial Photography Rig high up into the splendors of the Grand Canyon. We hope to capture sights unseen! Read more
A raft will tow a Kite Aerial Photography Rig high up into the splendors of the Grand Canyon. We hope to capture sights unseen!
About this project
WHO: 15 intrepid adventurers, artists, poets, photographers, culinary ninjas and good ole' crazies.
WHAT: The goal of this Kickstarter campaign is to invest in a Kite Aerial Photography Rig (KAP Rig) to fly behind a raft while floating down the Grand Canyon. Warm afternoon air traveling up the canyon will carry a camera high up into the mile-deep canyon to capture images that will be stitched together to create large-scale panoramic photographs. We can only imagine the sights...!
WHEN: This adventure launches on December 18th, spanning Christmas and New Years for 25 days. The aerial photographs will likely showcase a snowy Grand Canyon.
WHERE: One of the seven wonders of the world, seen from space and rumored to be one of those 'really memorable experiences'. We are practical, and won't fly the kite down major rapids or in tight spaces in the Grand Canyon. The goal is to map amazing areas of the Canyon that afford the opportunity to capture nature's splendors.
WHY: Why not is a better question! Permits to float the Grand Canyon are few and far between. This project is an innovative way to capture sights unseen by almost everyone except Robby Knievel or birds soaring far above.
Beyond our use of the KAP Rig, we are interested in catalyzing creativity. A blog will showcase the photography, and it will also serve as a site for anyone to pitch new and intriguing ideas for the KAP Rig. Votes for wild ideas will be tallied, and the Kite Rig will be gifted to the most engaging project. It's that simple.
We can only imagine the possibilities of doing this - maybe someone will propose a harness for a wildebeest to tow the kite rig across the Serengeti to map migration routes. We want people to think bigger than the Grand Canyon and aspire to use this tool for amazing endeavors.
The wonderful Evan Smith provided the photos for the video. It is because of his generosity that this project has come to fruition!
Thanks Evan!

After reading both the Limousine Liberal selection and the IOKIYAR selection, and being myself a far-left-wing supporter, I must say that I felt them both to be relatively fair.
While I might wish the Limousine Liberal article had more examples to put the two on a closer playing ground, I can't be offended by the nature of pointing out hypocrisy where it exists in either political party, despite my own personal beliefs. In this, I hope you all may have a little patience and understanding that the authors are doing the best they can, and presenting the information as best they know how, and you must put your own personal viewpoints aside when reading something that attempts to strictly state the facts on a delicate issue such as religion or politics.--Nathaniel

Overcoming the Limitations of Conventional Application Performance Management
Free registration required
Executive Summary
Organizations increasingly rely on composite applications to create enterprise agility. Unfortunately, the challenge of managing the performance of these composite environments is significantly more complex than with traditional systems. To be effective and efficient, enterprises need to manage highly distributed Java EE, portal, and SOA applications in a holistic fashion while using the minimum IT resources and specialized expertise. Read this white paper to learn how semantic modeling injects intelligence and automation capabilities into application performance management platforms.

My first post for Nautilus' blog, Facts so Romantic, is on new research by Clayton Critcher and Melissa Ferguson, about the costs of keeping secrets. The research, inspired by the now repealed Don't Ask Don't Tell Policy in the U.S. military, suggests that keeping your identity secret can impair your cognitive abilities, your self-control, and even your physical strength.

Expecting Better
My friend and colleague Emily Oster's new book, Expecting Better, came out last week. She dives into the data behind what your doctors and friends tell you about pregnancy and gives you the information you need to ask the right questions and make decisions that fit with your values. I wrote a short blog post about it, including some thoughts as a parent and psychologist. In particular, why are people generally so optimistic about their health and other life outcomes, but can get so much more conservative when it comes to pregnancy. It's more questions than answers, so your thoughts are very welcome. You can read the article here: http://bigthink.com/

Odysseus Nudged: Some more thoughts
I wrote a piece for Big Think that came out on Monday and there were some additional thoughts that I wanted to share that didn't make it into the original article. If you've already read the piece, then thank you – if you haven't, you can read it here: Odysseus Nudged: How Limiting Our Choices Can Give Us More Freedom. Most of these ideas came up in a phone conversation I had with George Loewenstein in preparing to write the story; it was his article in the New York Daily News is what got me thinking about some of these ideas.

Their magazine is off to a great start, I encourage you to check it out.

The Psychology of Nothing: Phantom Symptoms
Lovable anti-hero George Costanza is having a salad for lunch when he suddenly clutches at his chest and declares, "I think I'm having a heart attack!" His companions, Jerry and Elaine, seem remarkably unconcerned with George's seemingly life-threatening predicament. As George breathlessly lists off the symptoms he's experiencing (Tightness… Shortness of breath… Radiating waves of pain!), Jerry arrives at a less catastrophic diagnosis: "I know what this is. You saw that show on PBS last night, Coronary Country."

Paul Rozin on Music, Food, and Sex
I'm not sure how it's possible that until yesterday I had never seen Paul Rozin speak. However it happened, I corrected a huge mistake by going to see him give an invited address at the Midwestern Psychological Association meeting in Chicago titled, The Aesthetics and Pleasures of Temporal Sequences. The talk spanned far more than that topic, but as Rozin's research predicts, it was made extremely memorable by ending with a bang.

The Stapel Continuum
Along with many other psychologists, I've been closely following (and participating in) the ongoing discussion about finding ways to effectively improve the shortcomings in our field's research methods. Given that the Stapel fraud case was an important spark to these discussions, I read Yudhijit Bhattacharjee's article, The Mind of a Con Man, in this week's New York Times Magazine with great interest.


text: I'm going to use LiveCD as a host system for another LFS build. Want to reformat the hard drives and go from scratch. My problem is in connecting to the Internet. I might add that this area is one of the weakest I have in building these LFS systems. I have, from pure rote, performed commands and created files. I know only that in my current system I can connect to the Internet. Don't ask me why. <BG> What I want to do is to remaster LiveCD with my networking settings. I copied /etc/resolv.conf and the complet /etc/sysconfig/network-devices from my current system to the running LiveCd system. The only thing I didn't do was copy my /etc/sysconfig/network file to the LiveCD system. I checked the /etc/rc.d/init.d/network scripts and they are identical. Here are the contents of the files and directories that I copied: > # Begin /etc/resolv.conf > > domain grm.net > search grm.net > nameserver 127.0.0.1 > nameserver 126.96.36.199 > nameserver 18.104.22.168 > > # End /etc/resolv.conf > > ls /etc/sysconfig/network-devices > ifconfig.eth0 > ifdown > ifup > services > > ls /etc/sysconfig/network-devices/ifconfig.eth0 > ipv4-static > > cat /etc/sysconfig/network-devices/ifconfig.eth0/ipv4-static > #DEVICE=eth0 > ONBOOT=yes > SERVICE=ipv4-static > IP=216.139.123.xxx > GATEWAY=216.139.123.xxx > #PREFIX=32 > PEER=216.139.123.xxx > BROADCAST=216.139.123.xxx > DNS1=216.139.111.xx > DNS2=2i6.139.111.xx > #NETMASK=255.255.255.xxx I'm pretty sure the 'ifup' and 'ifdown' scripts are the same. My (B)LFS system is an SVN build that I completed in January, 2006. The LiveCD I'm using is the current release. I would appreciate it if someone sees something in my files or directories that I need to change to put on the LiveCD, or if there are any hints that I can use. Thanks, Dan

Odisha MLA Jhina Hikaka, kidnapped by Maoists more than a month ago, was released on Thursday.
The Maoists released the 37-year-old tribal legislator of the ruling Biju Janata Dal on the outskirts of Balipeta village in Koraput district, as per the decision taken earlier by a people's court.
Mr. Hikaka was received by wife Kaushalya Majhi and Nihar Ranjan Patnaik, a Koraput lawyer, when he walked out of a nearby forest area, accompanied by a large number of locals and activists of the Chasi Mulia Adivasi Sangha (CMAS).
The Maoists did not come to face the media teams at a mango orchard near the village, along with Ms. Majhi and Mr. Patnaik, and returned to their hideout after handing over custody of Mr. Hikaka to the villagers.
Mr. Hikaka told journalists that the Maoists treated him well. "They gave me things to eat that they themselves ate. They took good care of me."
Asked whether he would resign from his post, he said he would abide by the decision taken by the people's court organised by his abductors.
According to the Andhra-Odisha Border Special Zonal Committee of the CPI(Maoist), Mr. Hikaka had given a written undertaking in the people's court that he would resign from the Assembly and from the Biju Janata Dal to lead a normal life.
In the undertaking, Mr. Hikaka lamented that the State government had done little to secure his release.
Keywords: Jhina Hikaka, BJD MLA abduction, Odisha Maoists, Odisha Maoists crisis

Memorial Day 2014 was commemorated in Emporia on Monday with a traditional service at the All Veterans Memorial.
About 100 people attended on a warm, humid morning. Chief Warrant Officer Kristopher LeMaster, the guest speaker, told the audience to remember the sacrifices of soldiers past and present.
The service featured a reading of the names of Lyon County veterans who passed away over the last 12 months, as well as prayers and laying of wreaths. It also featured an announcement about a change to the layout of the memorial. Local veteran Frank Lowery is among several veterans who have been working for years to create a new Walk of Honor for county veterans. That appears closer to reality now, with the new Walk of Honor on the west side of the Grant Timmerman Memorial Pavilion instead of the east side as it currently sits.
Lowery credited City Horticulturist Dave McCullough and local architect Dave Emig for their work in bringing the project to this point. Costs haven't been determined.
Chase County also held a Memorial Day service at the All Veterans Park in Cottonwood Falls. Local veteran Charles Rayl said the ceremony was very "dignified."
The next special ceremony at Chase County's All Veterans Park will be on Flag Day, June 14.

Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, March 15, 2008 at 5:09pm.
It looks OK but I don't think you meant to say
"Note: maximum height will be 0, right?"
The vertical VELOCITY component at maximum height is zero.
With all those(4)significant figures, why are you using 10 for g instaed of 9.80 m/s^2 ? Unless they tell you do do that, I'd use a more accurate value. With four figures, it is about 9.804, but varies from place to place.
wooops I meant to say ask if the vertical velocity at maximum height is zero. And you answered that. Thanks! Yes, we were told to use 10 instead of 9.8.
I'm not sure if I did a right
but V2 x t
= 30.41 x 2
= 60.82m
a) the ball's location 2s after being thrown.
V2paralell = V1paralle = 30m/s
V2perpendicular = V1+at
= 25+(-10)(2)
= 5m/s
V2 = sqrt of 30^2 + 5^2
= 30.41m/s
Wait...it says location. How do I calculate the location? I only calculated it's vertical velocity.
The horizontal location at time t is
X = V1parallel * t
Th vertical location is V1perpendicular* t - (g/2)t^2
d) is wrong, too. Can you help me with that?
