World peace, hunger, war, disease.
There are many who wish they could change these.
But in order for us to heal those things,
We must first take a look at our stings.
From our much smaller cuts, we bleed,
And if we beg and if we plead
Maybe, just maybe we will find
Those bigger problems will be on the decline.
Most of our problems are close to home,
And can't be solved by a dusty tome.
They can only be solved with kindness and love,
And these things don't have to come from above.
You can show people compassion everyday,
In everything and in every way.
At home, at school and at work too
And people everywhere will thank you.
The one thing that I want to change
Is how we deal with each other, and it isn't strange
To show people that you really care a lot.
You really only need one shot.
So without much more stalling or delay,
Don't bottle up your feelings or keep them at bay.
Show the world what you can do.
I believe I can change, how about you?

The recent history of the place is almost identified with the life and miracles of Francesco Forgione (May 25, 1887 - September 23, 1968), canonized Saint Pio of Pietrelcina, who joined the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin and was popularly known as Padre Pio, and lived in San Giovanni from 1916 to his death. He had the stigmata for many years, and when it bled, the blood smelled of perfume or flowers. He acquired fame as a miracle worker and clairvoyant. On June 16th 2002 Pope John Paul II proclaimed Padre Pio as "Sanctus Pius a Pietrelcina".
San Giovanni Rotondo, Province of Foggia, Puglia, Italy
San Giovanni Rotondo was the home of Saint Pio of Pietrelcina from July 28, 1916 until his death on September 23, 1968. The Padre Pio Pilgrimage Church was built in devotion to the saint, dedicated on July 1, 2004.
Altitude: 565 m a.s.l -- Population: ca. 26,000 inhabitants
-- Zip/postal code: 71013 -- Phone Area Code: 0882
-- Patron Saint: San Giovanni Battista celebrated on 24 June
-- Frazioni & Localities: San Salvatore
The town was founded in 1055 on the ruins of a previous Italic village of the 6th century BC, where a round temple (from which the name Rotondo) was extant, probably devoted to the worship of Janus, the two-faced god. Throughout the Middle Ages it was an important administrative center.
What to see
- The Padre Pio Pilgrimage Church built on a project by Genoan architect Renzo Piano, it can accommodate 6,500 people seated, and 30,000 people more outside.

This is a section I like to call "When LOL Just Isn't Enough". Here, I'll be informing you Anime Vicers about anime that is so gutbustingly funny that when you talk about it LOL (laughing out loud) just doesn't cut it for a description. I'll be doing whole series or even random episodes. First off I have Golden Boy. I randomly came across this anime when looking for something new to watch when I really got into anime a few years ago and man did I feel like I hit the jackpot. Golden Boy isn't very popular and the anime is about 15 years old but it's story and antics are timeless. I'll say in advance that Golden Boy is an adult anime.
The opening scene finds you listening to guy riding his bike singing along with the radio while girls talk about how nerdy and dorky that is. You immediately find out it's none other than the protagonist Kintaro Oe, a 25-year-old freeter (someone who basically just does part-time jobs). Out of nowhere a speeding Ferrari comes from behind to make him lose control and crash into a big pile of trash. With a start like that I knew I was going to laugh my ass off.
Man I wish I could get run off the road by a car and get $10,000! But low and behold Kintaro whips out his trusty notebook to record the start of another chapter in his life. He's such a carefree and happy guy. I love his tagline, "this is so educational." It never fails the guy would be surrounded by beautiful women and be stuck doing menial chores while having perverted thoughts and the great overreacting rants and facial expressions. But despite his usually untimely flaw he works hard, is ready to learn, and will help in any way (indeed any). Being back in the mid-90s this episode dealt with how not everyone had a computer and not everyone could work with programming. Back then working with computers was fun and educational (much like it is today!).
Kintaro screws up bad. Like, so bad it cost the company millions, surely. But wait! He drops off a disc with the program the computer programmers were working on for months that he deleted and made an even better one in a week! Let alone he gave the $10,000 to a couple in trouble. What's up with this guy? How can he be so smart and so stupid at the same time? Maybe that's what you get when Kintaro studied law at Tokyo University but gave up graduating to travel on his trusty bike doing odd jobs.
Remember kids: study, study, study, study, study!!!!
You can find this episode, "Computer Lesson", here at Pimp Anime. This was the best quality I found but you can find Golden Boy on other sites as well.

How to Make a Weathered Look Beach Tray
By: Tiffany Windsor
Bring the beach home with this upcycled craft ideas like this fun project. Learn how to make a Weathered look Beach Tray from Tiffany Windsor using a plain wooden piece you can find at a dollar store. Use stencils and paint for this fun craft.
Look for a plain wooden tray that can be easily altered. Don't spend a lot on this piece; in fact, the cheap the tray, the better! You can create a striped pattern using blue painters tape. Use a sponge to apply several coats of paint to the tray. Adhere stenciled letters to tray and paint around them, covering the entire area of the tray. Carefully lift the letters and allow the paint to dry. Use this tray to display shells, candles, and other cool summery items.

from Cloverdale, B.C.
I have a few pieces from Rarities and this is another one that literally took my breath away when I opened the box. It was far more than I expected and exactly what I was looking for. The green diamonds are not a bright green, which is perfect for my wardrobe. They're a soft green and just add dimension to the black. The ring is also wider than some of Carol's tattoo rings (i.e. the one that was a Showstopper quite some time ago), which is also what I was hoping for. It's absolutely perfect for daytime and evening wear. Thank you, Carol and TSC!!! Carol, can you make oval drop earrings with French wire kind of like the ones TSC has in the collection, but not quite the shoulder-duster length? Would go wonderfully with these and other rings and laboradite necklaces of yours that I have. Thanks again! Love your designs!

sorry for the messy garage.
but I just hooked everything up and took it around he neighborhood. next I'm going to work on the shock mounts. I think I might use the tacoma shocks and make a small shock hoop in the trailer. Then I won't have to worry about maxing out the shocks.

text: Our lives are driven by a fact that most of us can't name and don't understand. It defines who our friends and lovers are, which careers we choose, and whether we blush when we're embarrassed. That fact is whether we're an introvert or an extrovert. The introvert/extrovert divide is the most fundamental dimension of personality. And at least a third of us are on the introverted side. Some of the world's most talented people are introverts. Without them we wouldn't have the Apple computer, the theory of relativity and Van Gogh's sunflowers. Yet extroverts have taken over. Shyness, sensitivity and seriousness are often seen as being negative. Introverts feel reproached for being the way they are. In "Quiet", Susan Cain shows how the brain chemistry of introverts and extroverts differs, and how society misunderstands and undervalues introverts. She gives introverts the tools to better understand themselves and take full advantage of their strengths. Passionately argued, superbly researched, and filled with real stories, "Quiet" will permanently change how we see introverts - and how you see yourself.

LoginCritic Reviews for The Vow
All Critics (127) | Top Critics (31) | Fresh (37) | Rotten (89) | DVD (5)
The film isn't as bad as what it looks like--the Chinatown knockoff equivalent of a Nicholas Sparks movie--but that doesn't mean that those outside the target audience won't find it a painful experience.
Like a less successful version of The Notebook, this works as an undemanding date movie; just don't expect much more from it.
Ultimately the vision of love and marriage that is being presented here is a fairly routine, secular one, that it is love that binds us to a vow and not the other way around.
"The Vow" might have been a decent film had the filmmakers taken the time to allow the characters to develop, or perhaps even if a better actor was cast in the lead.
Thankfully The Vow spares us from all of that shakey-camera'd nonsense, but that's about all it spares us from.
The Vow presents some fascinating challenges for Leo and Paige, yet without fail the screenplay comes up short in allowing them to overcome the obstacles in their paths.
The 2004 Adam-Sandler-Drew Barrymore comedy 50 First Dates played retrograde amnesia for laughs, but The Vow, loosely inspired by the experiences of real-life couple Kim and Krickitt Carpenter, aims strictly for the tear ducts.
The film is almost awe-inspiring in its unabashed embrace of a love so all-encompassing that Paige even treasures Leo's flatulence. (Seriously -- she rolls up the car window so the smell won't escape.)
So full of trite phrases, clich�d moments and uncool coolness (she has a tattoo on her back!), it's mind-wiping. I vow to forgive this movie, just to forget it faster.
Execution is what really matters in B-movies, and as silly as it sounds, The Vow is a remarkably restrained, sweet little movie that never tugs so hard it becomes annoying.
Neither particularly romantic nor comedic, nonetheless represents a middling love story that should suit most of its intended audience relying on the chemistry of its stars.
Like a Nicholas Sparks novel with a dash of wit, a hint of edge and a smidgen less sap.
One of those 'inspired by a true story' things as concerns its premise, but in reality it feels more 'inspired by Nicholas Sparks.'
The story of how Paige and Leo met is riddled with clich�s
...eventually morphs into a seriously tedious little drama...
Oh, was there ever an opportunity here. But it's easier to go the traditional route, I guess, than make waves.
It gets bogged down in mopey melodrama and never quite recovers.
It's been designed as a female fantasy, a delivery system for bare pecs and caring glances.
Sweetly syrupy, filled with slick, heart-tugging, tear-jerking sentiment.
... slickly efficient, buoyed by excellent performances ...
Audience Reviews for The Vow
A bit gooey but earnestly and engagingly played. Knowing that its based on a true story makes some of the more odd elements easier to accept.
MoreSuper Reviewer
"For some reason I was thinking that this film was going to be a rom-com. Big mistake on my part. It ended up being a rom-dram. I didn't think I would get so swept up in this love story since I'm not a huge fan of romance flicks, but this one got me. The story being based on true events was what really had me thinking about the film differently. It made me like it more. You can't help but feel complete heartache for this couple. I mean to be so in love and to have something that horrendous happen and *SPOILER* to never get the memory of falling in love with you husband, your wedding, and your entire lively hood with this person is just heart breaking.*END OF SPOILER* I also kinda enjoyed that there was no fairy tale ending, even though I wanted one for her. Great acting by Tatum and McAdams. I thought they had great chemistry which is a plus when doing movies like these or the film would have never worked."
MoreSuper Reviewer
Overall, not a bad movie. Certainly not "The Notebook", but it was an ok story about a man who never stopped loving the love of his life, for better or worse. I'm not quite sure if it's the presentation of the story, or Channing Tatum's moderate acting skills, but this movie didn't quite move me like I wanted it to...
MoreSuper Reviewer
"The Vow" is one of those "love conquers all" type chick flicks. Newlyweds Paige(Rachel McAdams) and Leo(Channing Tatum) are sitting at a stop light,when a truck plows into them. Leo is fine, but Paige has suffered some brain damage and can't remember anything from the past five years. Forgetting her relationship with Leo all together, he tries to figure out ways to help her remember, or fall in love with him again. I expected this to be "notebook" meets "50 first dates",and in some ways it is. But really, its just a good,sweet little drama,with enough heart and fluff to not be meladramtic. Adams is great,as she usually excels in romance movies. Tatum is just ok. He is a real movie star, but not a great actor. He's kind of one dimensional in dramas like this, but he does his best. Not saying I don't enjoy his movies, but I just don't think he's reached his potential. Women will love this(i'm pretty sure my wife loved it),and guys will either say 'meh that was ok". Or just skip it altogether. I think it's worth a watch,but in 5 years won't be remembered like "notebook" or "50 first dates".

The Vow Quotes
- Paige:
- I vow to help you love life, to always hold you with tenderness, to have the patience that love demands, to speak when words are needed, and to share the silence when they are not, to agree to disagree about red velvet cake, to live within the warmth of your heart, and always call it home.
- Leo:
- How do you look at the girl you love & tell yourself its time to walk away?
- Paige:
- Are you trying to make me diabetic or just fat?
- Leo:
- Can I at least give you an awkward hug?

Went to my endo today and she increased my Spiro dose from 50mg to 75mg since I am on yasmin, If I wasn't on yasmin she said she would have prescribed 200mg for acne!!! I thought that was extremely high and since this is a med that you need to continuously take the less would be better. I clearly am not a doctor, but I've at least been finally clearing a bit after my third month. I'm scared I will break out again, the first 2 months were horrible and this last month would not have been so bad with out all the leftover PIH.
Do you think I will breakout again with this incease in dose, if you did what was your breakout like when you increased it, how long did it last? I am also on Doxy 200mg a day so hopefully that should help a bit. Man I was just getting a baring on getting out of the house a bit and hoping to be clear in the next few weeks. Now only my body and time will tell, but any words of wisdom, advise, experiences with increasing especially so far in.
Thank you SO much for even reading this.

See the Flavor Descriptions Page for more information.
All V2 EX electronic cigarettes are comprised of two primary components, the EX Flavor Cartridge and the EX Battery.

We are the only e-cigarette company who tests and publishes the results of each batch online to ensure you receive the best quality product. Click here to view V2 Cigs batch results.
V2 EX Standard Starter Kits are shipped with our premium EX Batteries (100 mm) which are only available in automatic. V2 EX Batteries are designed to offer a perfect balance between physical weight and smoking time per charge cycle. To use your V2 EX electronic cigarette, simply screw your EX flavor cartridge on to the end of the battery and puff on it like you would a normal cigarette. When you draw air through the cartridge, the heating element will automatically activate and produce inhalable vapor.
Every V2 EX Flavor Cartridge is filled with enough of our proprietary e-liquid to produce up to 400 puffs (dependent upon deepness of puffs). A custom window on the side of your EX Cartridge allows you to see the level of e-liquid inside. When the EX Cartridge is empty, simply discard it and screw on a fresh one—it's that simple! Your EX Battery is equipped with charge indicator lights that let you know when it's time to recharge. V2 EX Batteries can last anywhere from a few days to more than a week between charges (this is dependent up your smoking frequency and puffing style). The battery can be fully charged in just a few hours with included Smart Charger.
It's important to find the right combination of flavors and strengths when you first begin using electronic cigarettes. We suggest starting with a low strength or a mix of strengths, depending on your cigarette usage. Many people find the highest strength cartridges to be too strong. The best way to find the right flavor for you is with a V2 Sampler Pack.
The V2 Smart Charger has a sophisticated internal chip and charges your battery quickly! Built-in features are incorporated to prevent overcharging.

Batteries last even longer than my long batteries. Sleek designs to our new batteries coupled with some new EX carts and we have a winner!
Posted by Brittany Brandenburg on 9th Aug 2014
I bought this kit about two months ago and I will say it's way better than any other electronic cigarette brand I have ever tried. I love the look of the EX, it's has a sleek uniform look. The V2 cartridges are much better than anything I have used as well. The only downside I have found is that sometimes I bought cartridges that had a burnt taste, but that was only the pre-filled cartridges, the EX blanks are much better and always taste fresh. A really great product from V2!
Posted by Gary on 7th Aug 2014
Wish they had this when i first started because the ex carts are FANTASTIC! Highly recommend.
Posted by Theresa Hall on 25th Jul 2014
This is the first and only e cig I have ever tried. I chose V2 EX because of all its positive reviews.
And I am so so glad I did. I absolutely LOVE it! And if you give it a chance you will too!!!!
Posted by Laura on 25th Jul 2014
I have owned my starter kit just over a month now.
The batteries are well made, charge quickly. I ordered a 2nd one for my husband. I got the Black and got him the Silver. The charge on the battery lasts all day for him, not as long for me as I chain vape while sitting at my computer.
I just keep asking myself why did I wait so long to order this great product. One of the reasons I chose V2 was the reviews and the Customer support. Also the forums are great filled with an awesome Mod @Samantha and the people are so helpful.
The lifetime warranty was also part of the reason I chose V2.
Thank you for such a great product and support to go with it.
Posted by Ehl on 24th Jul 2014
Before I bought an e-cig kit I research all I could find on different brands / sites. I found the forums and read reviews. I chose V2 based on the customer support and forum posts.
I can say I am so please with the product. I have been pleased with the quality of the kit.
If you are thinking of trying it I go back and wonder why I waited so long.

This is the best ecig on the market. I have tried other brands and was always disappointed. I decided to give the EX a try after reading the great reviews. Needless to say I was not disappointed. The EX is vastly superior to anything I have tried in the past. This is a must buy for anyone interested in vaping!

Neither of those were sequels to generally reviled games, and you DID see posthumous backlash like this to Chrono Cross anyway.
With recent spoiler, looks like the plot of this game is gonna go down the drain. Plus the monster collection mechanics aka toS2.
However, I will still buy the game though, looks like miles better than 13 itself.
When gamers heard that you would only be using 3 party members in FFX-2 for the whole game there was quite a bit of an uproar. It turn-out well end with it having the best battle system and gameplay in the series since FFV.
The very same could happen with FFXIII-2 since it has the elements, it just needs to be less linear. SE isn't Namco either and is known for having their crazy game mechanics work, so I think we should havee some faith there.
I will be sold if FFXIII-2 is entirely on Pulse...
We already know that this isn't the case. The whole playable demo they've shown takes place on cocoon and Light is in an entirely different universe.
Actually, it does take place on Pulse the area in the E3 demo was just one of ruins of Cocoon. The E3 also had Noel making use of Time Gates to travel to sections the of area the party couldn't reach.

From the Archives: Miracles and Science, Part 5
By getting rid of the miracle stories in the Bible, Bultmann and his followers hoped to make the Christian story more palatable to modern man. Although I recognize the emotional weight of this sentiment, I am not convinced that it is an intellectually coherent approach, mainly for reasons of self-consistency.
From the Archives: Speciation and Macroevolution
A common challenge to evolutionary theory is that while life does indeed change over time (what is known as microevolution), no one has ever seen one species evolve into another species (macroevolution).
N.T. Wright and the Resurrection: Reviewing "Surprised by Scripture" (Part 3)
Wright reminds us that robust Christian faith takes evidence on board, but fuses reason with faith, hope and love.
Series: Evolution Basics (50 entries)
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
Series: Reviewing "Darwin's Doubt" (11 entries)
Still Surprised by Easter
We now take for granted an understanding of the Christian story that was largely worked out by Paul and later theologians. Even though the Gospels were composed after Paul's letters, they were concerned to tell the story itself in all its strangeness as it had been preserved by the first generation of Christians. And what we find in the stories themselves is the shock and wonder and surprise that the resurrection caused.
Evolution: What We Know and What We Don't
This entry was originally posted on February 17, 2010. In this video conversation, Jeff Schloss makes the observation that when we use the term "evolution", it is not always exactly clear what we are actually discussing unless we denote the intended usage.
Does Resurrection Contradict Science?
So what then does Resurrection mean? For Benedict it represents a new dimension of reality breaking through into human experience. It is not a violation of the old; it is the manifestation of something new.
Evolution and Immunity: Same Story?
The evidence suggests that God has chosen to work through a random process, one which involves the routine creation and destruction of millions of cells that never get used. This is the ordinary means by which God maintains our health. The miracles of healing recorded in the Bible are miraculous precisely because they don't occur by this normal, natural process.
Searching for Motivated Belief: Understanding John Polkinghorne, Part 2
To understand more clearly where Polkinghorne lies on the larger landscape of science and religion, let's consider his approach to the Resurrection. Many contemporary thinkers, including some theologians and clergy, believe that "science" has somehow made it impossible to believe in the Resurrection, the deity of Jesus, and even belief in the transcendent God of the Bible.
Series: Harmonizing Science, Ethics, and Praxis (4 entries)
In this three-part series, Cal DeWitt offers insights and examples of why science and ethics must work together to help us make informed, practical decisions within our society. DeWitt's science-ethics-praxis model provides a framework by which we can live more effectively as God's stewards.
Series: To Serve and Preserve—Genesis 2 and the Human Calling (3 entries)
In this series, David Buller pays careful attention to the original language and cultural context of Genesis 2, revealing that our responsibility to care for creation is a sacred task given to us by God, not merely a modern secular activity. By taking Scripture seriously, we learn that we have a God-given mandate to be diligent stewards of His creation.

The God who created the cosmos is the God who came to us as a child in Bethlehem.
Series: "And God Saw That It Was Good": Death and Pain in the Created Order (6 entries)
The tension generated by our understanding of God's character, as revealed in the Bible, and by the reality of the natural world around us has been the focus of much debate within the Christian church since the first century. This series examines critically several of the proposed solutions to this problem, viewing them from the perspective of a geologist, paleontologist, and orthodox evangelical Christian.
Katharine Hayhoe: Evangelical Christian, Climate Scientist
As an Evangelical and a scientist, Katharine Hayhoe is already a member of a rare breed. As a climate change researcher who is also married to an evangelical Christian pastor, she is nearly one of a kind.

In this series, we reexamine the claim made by Intelligent Design proponent Michael Behe to have found a limit to "Darwinian" evolution in light of recent results from the laboratory of Richard Lenski.
Did David Hume "Banish" Miracles?
"I flatter myself," Hume triumphantly proclaimed, "that I have discovered an argument . . . which, if just, will, with the wise and learned, be an everlasting check to all kinds of superstitious delusion, and consequently, will be useful as long as the world endures."
Series: Divine Action in the World (5 entries)
In this talk, Professor Plantinga addresses the fact that many contemporary thinkers—including many theologians—believe that God cannot perform miracles, providentially guide history, or interact in the lives of people, as these activities would be contrary to science. Plantinga, on the other hand, makes the case that this popular view is mistaken; excluding divine action in the world is not a central feature of natural science itself, but a philosophical or theological preference that has been added on to science (and can just as readily be removed). Plantinga concludes that it is completely logical to accept the miracles of the Bible and support contemporary science.
Death and Rebirth: The Role of Extinction in Evolution
When they imagine evolution, many Christians picture novelty: new species arising over time, or speciation events. But as the most recent Southern Baptist Voices exchange makes clear, many Christians also focus on the role of death in evolution—something that can be a stumbling block.

1st Battalion Update – October 2014
The 1st Battalion have had a busy summer supporting elements of the rest of the Army train before going onto the Canadian Prairie to train itself for future contingency operations. This winter the Battalion will continue its commitments as the Land Warfare Centre Battlegroup training other units on Salisbury Plain before ensuring it is fully prepared and at readiness to be the British Army's Lead Armoured Battlegroup in the spring.
Operations and Training In June the Battalion conducted culmination training for all elements deploying to Canada, with the emphasis being on live firing, both mounted and dismounted. The mounted live firing consisted of WARRIOR AFV crews being put through their paces laying down 30mm cannon fire by day and by night, while the Yorkshire infantrymen went through dismounted ranges, again, by day and by night.
In July the Battalion supported Ex LION STRIKE with Battlegroup elements attached, to all the future sub-unit commanders of the infantry and cavalry to refresh their combat skills and operate as commander sin a Battlegroup context. This was a valuable 'shake-out' that allowed the headquarters and attached combat support personnel to fully integrate and rehearse how they were going to operate on Ex PRAIRIE STORM in Canada.
August was taken up with preparation, both of kit and equipment, and all the administrative and personnel checks to allow over 1500 soldiers to be ready to get on the plane to Canada, but not before some well-earned leave!
The highlight of the last quarter has undoubtedly been a month spent soldiering at the British Army Training Unit Suffield, in Alberta, Canada, honing the Battlegroup's war fighting skills through both a combined arms live fire phase, and a TESEX phase against a thinking, reactive opposing force, which was a supreme test of 1 YORKS' Battlegroup's ability to plan and execute missions in often complex terrain.
October will be spent refurbishing armoured vehicles in Canada, returning to the UK and preparing to reassume the role of LWC BG, before Ex WESSEX STORM in November, and Christmas leave in December.
Future In the New Year low level training, mostly delivered through cadres and courses, will ensure each member of 1 YORKS is ready to assume a lead role in the British Army's high readiness armoured unit.
1 YORKS is an Armoured Infantry battalion equipped with the WARRIOR Armoured Fighting Vehicle (AFV). The high levels of protection, firepower, ground mobility and sustainability make them well suited to providing both shock action and the endurance element of any operational force.
The 1st Battalion is part of the Land Warfare Centre based in Wiltshire.

WR Jacoby Ford may miss opener
NAPA, Calif. -- The Oakland Raiders' already thin wide receiver group was dealt another blow with Jacoby Ford expected to miss time because of a sprained left foot.
Ford underwent an MRI on Saturday, a day after leaving Oakland's 31-27 preseason loss to the Arizona Cardinals in the first quarter.
AFC West blog
ESPN.com's Bill Williamson writes about all things AFC West in his division blog.
Ford missed six games last season for the Raiders with a sprained left foot, although coach Dennis Allen said this one doesn't appear as serious.
"Obviously, it looks like Jacoby is going to miss a little bit of time, don't know exactly to what extent yet," Allen said. "We're still seeing where he's at."
Allen couldn't rule out the chance that Ford would miss the opener on Sept. 10 against San Diego.
The Raiders have only three receivers on the roster who ever have caught a pass in the NFL and all are nursing injuries. Darrius Heyward-Bey left the game Friday with a sprained shoulder that isn't believed to be serious. Denarius Moore hasn't played in the preseason as he recovers from a hamstring injury originally sustained during minicamp in June.
Allen said Moore is getting closer to returning, but the team might need to look outside the organization for help at receiver.
Ford and Heyward-Bey weren't the only players to leave Friday night's game with an injury as Oakland dropped its second straight preseason game.
Backup quarterback Matt Leinart got stitches in his right index finger after being knocked out by an illegal hit by Ricky Lumpkin in the second half, and backup running Mike Goodson had weakness in his shoulder in his first game since being taken to the hospital with a neck injury earlier in training camp. Neither of those injuries appear to be serious.

This is the most serene trip one could ever take. The sights from the boat, the lovely luscious vegetation along the river was an amazing sight. The guide full of funny interesting stories. Worth every cent!
October 2012
It was a great value days excursion with Andy the skipper who kept everyone entertained with good humour and considerable wildlife knowledge. The BBQ lunch at Harrys Hut prior to the journey back to Noosa was spot on. Very nice indeed. Being an amateur photographer I was kept busy with the camera capturing the abundant wildlife and beautiful reflections on the still waters we were passing through.
Highly recommended.

A couple of things went through my head. Actually, several. First was, "What? I'm not in New York?!" and the other one, "So, you moonlight as a weather forecaster now? But of course, being the gentleman that I am, I told her the truth. "I'm feeling under the weather." And it was chilly that night. I had the perfect excuse.
You know what else redeemed me in that situation? I was wearing my Jack Purcells. If I was wearing Uggs or worse, ski boots, then I could've given her the permission to shoot me right on the hed. But I wasn't. Converse has always been my go-to-brand of sneakers if I want to dress down an otherwise dressy outfit. Think a tuxedo + a black low-top Chucks. Classic and I must say, iconic eh?

In Topic:  not displaying properly, and background-color not being
Posted 3 Oct 2014
I'm not using any shadows or gradients behind the png image. My code basically outputs this:

I'm wondering if jQuery mobile is changing something, or IE/Chrome don't support the line:
thumbnail.style = "background-color: " + opponentColor +";";
I'm not 100% worried about the border color, I'm going to get a friend to make a better graphic for me, but those imgs are 80x80, and that is what jquery mobile scales the images to. -
In Topic: How do I get rid of a null pointer exception?
Posted 16 May 2013
Bit of further explanation of locality. The reason we can use the same variable name in different methods is because of the scope of a variable. in Java it is pretty simple to tell in the basic case because a variable will stay in scope until the code block is complete (e.g.{ }
). Take the following code. It will break because I try and access the variable out of scope
if( true ) { int a = 5; } System.out.println( a );
Now when dealing with class variables and constructors we usually want to keep our terminology the same to make things easier. So if we create a new Person( "Sam" ). we would probably write a class like this:
public class Person{ private String name; public Person( String name ) { //what do we put here? } }
So how do we know which 'name' to use? Well if you don't explicitly tell Java, it will always use the most local one. Another way of saying is the more recently created one inside that block (in the class above, it would be the parameter to the constructor). So in order to maintain the similar terminology and state which to save we need the keyword this.
public class Person{ private String name; public Person( String name ) { this.name = name; } }
this, is talking about "this class" essentially, and will distinguish that we want to save the parameter 'name' to the class 'name'. -
In Topic: How do I get rid of a null pointer exception?
Posted 16 May 2013
You are getting a null pointer exception because you your constructor has the line int[][] board = .... Because you put the int[][] java thought you were creating a new local variable for that method. So you are not actually saving the new to the class variable board.
Just delete the int[][] in your constructor -
In Topic: Can anyone explain what is wrong with this code ?
Posted 13 May 2013
Syntactically speaking your code is fine. But as GregBrannon said, you need to tell us what you are expecting versus what you are actually getting.

Why did I wait so long!
By Bowmaker
from Clayton, NC
About Me Avid Do-It-Yourselfer
Comments about Tormek T-7 Magnum Kit :
I had been thinking about purchasing a Tormek system for a long time, but until recently couldn't justify the cost. Not until my son and I got into woodturning and needed a way to effectively sharpen turning tools did I convince myself to make the purchase. Why did I wait so long? This tool, and the assorted jigs, make sharpening edge tools so easy. So far, I have sharpened draw knives, spoke shave blades, wood chisels, hunting and kitchen knives, and of course turning tools. The machine allows a hobbist such as myself to put professional cutting edges on all my tools. Yes its pricey, but with the quality of construction, it'll last me the rest of my life and will be a tool to pass down to one of my kids. In the meantime, I will enjoy using it, and the SHARP tools that result from doing so. I may even start a sharpening service for a little pocket cash!
The BESTsharpener ever.

I use the Tormek to sharpen my wood turning tools and to sharpen kitchen and hunting knives. The Tormek far exceeded my expectations.

A good investment to keep all of your tools sharp. Works fast, quietly, and easily. Jig setup is fast and tools come out razor sharp. A must for woodturners who want to keep their HSS tools sharp without burning away a bunch of expensive steel on a bench grinder. I have never experienced a better sharpening system.
Increase your confidence with sharpening

Take the time to develop the grind YOU want and then the Tormek will help you keep it and keep it sharp.
I would not buy this agian.

3 New Studies, 3 Good Reasons to Eat More Healthy Fats
11/5/14 0 Comments | Posted by Renew Life in Diet and Nutrition, Digestive Enzymes, Fish Oils, General Health, Heart Health, Mental Health, Oil Supplements, Solutions, Studies
We know from past research that fish-derived Omega-3 fatty acids provide a multitude of health benefits for the whole body—from supporting the heart, brain and nervous system to protecting our eyes and joints. Now, three new studies spotlight the role of Omega-3 fish oil in a healthy diet and why we should consume more of these healthy fats and fewer saturated and trans fats.
Fish Oil May Protect Against Diabetes
Past evidence has shown that fatty fish consumption can help protect against diabetes by having a positive effect on glucose metabolism. In a recent study conducted by scientists in Sweden, similar results were seen in the case of latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA), which shares characteristics of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes including weight gain and insulin resistance. They found that one or more servings of fatty fish per week consumption was indeed associated with a reduced risk of LADA.
Omega-3 Fats Linked to Increased Brain Volume
Scientists no longer believe that age-related brain shrinkage and nerve cell death is irreversible. In fact, a recent study conducted by researchers at the University of Pittsburgh found that older adults who consume high amounts of Omega-3 fatty acids showed signs of new tissue development and an increase in gray matter—the areas of the brain involved in memory, emotions, muscle control, sensory perception and decision making.
Americans Still Eating Too Many Unhealthy Fats
Results of a new long-term study published last month in the Journal of the American Heart Association show that although consumption of saturated fats and trans fats have declined in the last three decades, Americans are still consuming far more unhealthy fats than experts recommend. The American Heart Association recommends limiting trans fats to one percent (or less) of total calories consumed and saturated fats to between five and six percent of total calories, while at the same time increasing the amount of healthy Omega-3 fats consumed from fatty fish such as salmon, mackerel and herring.
How Much Fish Oil Should You Take and When?
10/24/14 0 Comments | Posted by Renew Life in Diet and Nutrition, Digestive Health, Fish Oils, General Health, Heart Health, Mental Health, Oil Supplements, Solutions
Essential fatty acids such as Omega-3 EPA and DHA are good-for-you fats used by every cell in your body to support and manage vital functions such as a healthy inflammation response and proper heart, joint, eye, brain, digestive and immune function.‡ However, the body does not produce these essential fats on its own, so the only way to get them is through diet or supplementation. For this reason, many people benefit from taking a high-concentration, purity-guaranteed fish oil supplement daily.‡
Because extensive evidence shows that fish-derived Omega-3s support optimal digestion and overall health, many leading health organizations provide helpful recommendations. For example, the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends at least 2 grams of Omega-3 oils per day, which is consistent with digestive care expert Brenda Watson's H.O.P.E. Formula.
And, because scientific research confirms that Omega-3 supplementation promotes heart health by helping to maintain healthy cholesterol, triglyceride and blood pressure levels already within the normal range,* the American Heart Association (AHA) recommends consuming about 500 mg per day of EPA and DHA for people who are healthy and want to maintain good heart health. For those with documented coronary heart disease, the AHA recommends 1 gram (1,000 mg) per day, and those with high triglycerides should aim for 2 to 4 grams (2,000 to 4,000 mg) per day.
Is there such a thing as too much Omega-3?
Due to its potential blood-thinning effects, it is recommended that you consult your physician when taking high doses of Omega-3 EPA/DHA—particularly doses greater than 3 grams (3,000 mg) per day.
Does it matter how much Omega-3 is in my capsule?
Yes. Be sure to look at the total amount of Omega-3 in each capsule—not the total amount of fish oil, as supplements vary greatly in the amounts of Omega-3.
What is the best time to take fish oil? And should I take fish oil with food?
Fish oil may be taken with or without food at any time of the day, or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.
*Supportive but not conclusive research shows that consumption of EPA & DHA Omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease.

When Steve Jobs wrote Thoughts on Flash, and predicted a grim end to the then-reigning king of internet interactivity, I agreed with him. And I was working, in part, as a Flash animator at the time, doing dynamic web elements for corporate sites. It was a patch, something that fixed a gap in functionality, but something that, as the gap narrowed, needed to be replaced. Video, at least the DRM-free kind, was easy to see a Flash-free future for. The kind of stuff I was doing, however, the stuff that used timelines and transformations, was harder to see. Then came tools like Hype. And now, Hype 2.0 for Mac and its companion app, Hype Reflect for iOS.
Apple has shipped iPad pre-orders and regardless of whether you chose expedited or regular old delivery, it should get to your door on Saturday, April 3 (if your area offers weekend deliveries). To make sure it doesn't get there any earlier, Apple is using every trick in their playbook so don't be nervous if you see "holds" or "exceptions" on your delivery status. They don't want any "accidental" pre-releases hitting the streets (and webs).
There are a lot of rumors floating around that various carriers will get the 3G iPhone. Telefonica is one of the carriers usually named, Vodafone is usually the other. The rumors lately indicate that the next generation of iPhone, the iPhone 3G, will be available in May.
There have been a lot of snarky comments about Apple in the press lately, usually from big media companies or other smartphone competitors. There are so many CEOs fiddling while Apple burns down their little walled cities, there's enough of them for an orchestra. Or at least a hoedown.
A savvy forum user over at MacRumors found some interesting new dialog box messages inside the new version of iTunes. These are probably the highlights:

Conference action resumes tonight for both the Aggie men's and women's basketball teams. It's a chance for the Aggie men's team to notch their first road win of the conference season as they take on Seattle and for the women it's a chance to slide into a first place tie with Seattle if they can defeat the Redhawks tonight in the Pan Am.
Tonight's men's game at Seattle sees the Aggies take on a Redhawks team that despite being 0-3 in league play, hasn't exactly had the easiest road to start. The WAC schedule makers did Seattle no favors in basically starting them off with the better half (on paper heading into the season) of the conference when you consider their first seven conference games are against Idaho, Utah State, San Jose State, New Mexico State, Denver, UT Arlington and Louisiana Tech (welcome to the conference Seattle).
So what does Seattle do well that should concern the Aggies tonight? First of all they're the best rebounding team in the league at 37.9 per game and a rebounding percentage of 56.6 percent which is slightly better than the Aggies' rebounding percentage of 56.4 percent. The Redhawks also crash the offensive glass averaging 15 offensive boards per game, tops in the conference. That's something that has given the Aggies some trouble at times this season. In the loss to UT Arlington the Aggies have up 17 offensive boards but have done a much better job the last three games of limiting their opponents' offensive rebounds.
Seattle plays fast. They average 75.7 possessions per game, however, they only average 0.913 points per possession which is second worst in the league. The Redhawks also turn the ball over one out of every four possessions so their could be some opportunity for some easy buckets tonight for the Aggies.
The leading scorers for Seattle average 11 and 10.5 points per game respectively and they're a relatively small team, though they do have a 6'11" freshman center who will likely see a bunch of time tonight against Sim, although he comes into the game only averaging 10 minutes per game. This should be another big game for Sim. There's really no reason to shy away from what the Aggies have been doing with him over the course of the past few games. Sim finishes last week 16-for-17 from the floor, 3-for-4 from the free throw line and had eight boards and four blocks in the two Aggie wins.
This is a game the Aggies should win, although we certainly felt that way when the Aggies went up against UT Arlington as well. The Aggies need to establish themselves on the road in conference play and because of the loss at UTA the Aggies are going to have to steal some road wins somewhere and this trip is one where, if they are going to win the regular season, they're going to have to sweep this road trip.
Tonight's game is scheduled for an 8:00 p.m. (MT) tip-off and can be seen on Root Sports.
The Aggie women host Seattle tonight and they have a chance to run their win streak to four games and with that they could forge their way into a tie for first place. The Redhawks have three players who average double-digits in scoring led by Kacie Sowell's 17.2 points per game. Ashley Ward and Sylvia Shepard average 14.4 and 14.2 points per game respectively.
The Redhawks play fast averaging 78.2 possessions per game but much like their male counterparts, they're not particularly efficient on offense averaging 0.841 points per possession which is middle of the WAC. The Redhawks do lead the league in field goal percentage at 41.3 percent per game and 47 percent from inside the arc. The Redhawks aren't a great three point shooting team hitting just 23.1 percent per game which is dead last in the league.
The Redhawks aren't a great defensive team ranking ninth in overall field goal percentage defense, tenth in two-point field goal percentage defense but they are fourth in three point field goal percentage defense (although that could mean that teams are more willing to abandon the three point shot because they know they can score inside the arc). One area the Redhawks are strong defensively is in turnovers. They force just over 24 per game and their opponents are turning the ball over nearly once every three possessions. This hasn't really been an issue for the Aggies this season but depending on which team is able to impose their style of play, it could become an issue.
Seattle turns the ball over a lot, nearly 23 turnovers per game so there could be some easy points for the Aggie women tonight as well. Seattle is the league's best rebounding team in terms of rebounding percentage at 53.4 percent.
The Aggies continue to play pretty solid defense and once again if they can lock down defensively they'll have a chance. And as always they need to avoid those three-plus minute scoring droughts if they are to have a chance to win tonight.
The game is scheduled for a 6:30 p.m. (MT) tip-off and can be seen on AggieVision and ESPN3.com
