New third party risk management cert to debut in January
It's rare in 2014 for any business entity to conduct all of its operations using only its own resources and personnel. For many firms, it takes business partners, often called "third party" partners, to get things done.

I purchased a trap at local hardware store. They were $30, very easy to use and humane. I got three sizes. The smallest is for mice. I purchased a medium one for ground squirrel problems. The large would be for regular squirrels, rabbits etc. These guys love peanut butter! I have trapped eight in two weeks and took them to the park to release. My neighbor caught about 30 last spring/summer.
They are cute to watch but look out. They are extremely destructive under sidewalks, patios etc. They will undermine very heavily. You would be surprised whenever you find it necessary to perhaps replace or for any reason dig up the concrete.

Businesses Versus Licensed Business Opportunities
First of all, a team is just a business model that's been proven to be effective. The franchisor who developed this business..
There is a lot of language out there which can be complicated as it pertains to business. One example is that of a franchise or even a registered income opportunity. Anybody seeking business opportunities must understand what an authorized business opportunity is and what an operation is. This brief summary will allow you to comprehend the differences.
Firstly, a team is just a small business model that's been demonstrated to work. The franchisor who created this business model will then offer the rights to you to use the business model as well as the services or goods that particular system sells. You'll become a franchisee and have a relationship with the franchisor to help you with the system after you pay your franchise fee. A franchise agreement will be signed and this agreement outlines the assistance the franchisee will get through the business model and the franchisor. Royalty fees must be paid by a franchise owner to the franchisor. This engaging visit house inspection rancho santa fe essay has a myriad of lofty cautions for the reason for this activity. Also, a franchise owner should follow the company plan just as it's. They have to first be approved by the head office if any changes are to be made. Of course, with a team you'll get lots of support and a readymade plan to follow. Some companies are a lot better than others at helping their franchisees achieve success, but many do everything possible since the name of the franchise is at stake. Advertising costs will also be paid by many all franchisees for the franchisor. Thats because the franchisor is marketing and advertising the product/service for the benefit of all franchisees and they pay a yearly payment towards that.
A certified business opportunity is just a business opportunity not unlike an operation, nonetheless it is set up somewhat different. First of all a licensed business does not require royalties nor does it require that you go off all decisions using the head company. An authorized business opportunity is usually much more affordable than a team. For another perspective, please consider looking at: save on. Thats since the license is all that is bought, not the entire business model so might there be no franchise fees, marketing fees, or royalties to pay. Many certified business opportunities also do not require advertising expenses. Several have artwork that works extremely well with directions, but no set marketing fee that should be paid. In the event you hate to dig up further about buy house inspection del mar, we know of lots of databases you might think about investigating.
When you is able to see registered online business offerings and businesses aren't the same. They both provide the opportunity at a new business, however the way that business is handled and the costs that have to be paid in colaboration with the new business are significantly different. Keep in mind that there are benefits and disadvantages connected with both franchises and registered work at home opportunities. You have to weigh the advantages and disadvantages prior to making a determination to proceed with any particular franchise or registered home based business.

The National Institute of Standards and Technology reopened the public comment period for already-adopted encryption standards that, according to leaked top-secret documents, were deliberately weakened by the National Security Agency.
Reopening the standards in question – Special Publication 800-90A and draft Special Publications 800-90B and 800-90C – gives the public a chance to weigh in again on encryption standards that were approved by NIST in 2006 for federal and worldwide use.
The move came Sept. 10, a swift response from NIST after several media outlets, including FCW, published articles that questioned the agency's cryptographic standards development process after the leaks surfaced.
"What's most troubling to me is [the reports] appeared to attack our integrity," said NIST Director Patrick Gallagher, speaking at the Amazon Web Services Public Sector Summit 2013.
"We are not deliberately, knowingly working to undermine encryption standards, and one way we ensure that integrity is by ensuring our work is done in the full light of the public," Gallagher said, addressing what he called the "elephant in the room" at the summit. "We're committed that when there is a new issue or vulnerability identified, we address it."
If vulnerabilities are found in the encryption standards, NIST will work with the cryptographic community to address them as quickly as possible, Gallagher said.
Gallagher's comments echoed a public statement issued by NIST on the matter on the same day. The statement explained why the NSA works with NIST in developing certain cryptographic standards, even though NIST is charged with establishing standards for unclassified federal computer systems.
"The NSA participates in the NIST cryptography development process because of its recognized expertise," the statement said. "NIST is also required by statute to consult with the NSA."
News reports from the New York Times and The Guardian based on top secret documents leaked by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden indicate the NSA essentially "became the sole editor" of the NIST standards. Contained within them is an algorithm called the Deterministic Random Bit Generator that has been long-rumored to contain weaknesses known to the NSA. It is used by approximately 70 government vendors.
NIST's statement absolves the agency from blame while not denying that weaknesses exist in the standards. "NIST would not deliberately weaken a cryptographic standard," the statement said.

There seems to be either universal blind faith that the govt is doing the right thing for its citizens or absolute distrust that even though intentions might be good, it is not possible to predict the negative outcome of govt actions, and therefore universal distrust. And of course it's all along party lines. Sad. Personally, I am swiftly moving from the former to the latter. There have been too many negative consequences for me to trust the govt as a whole really comprehends the damage it is doing (in the name of doing the right thing of course).
@John Denver, oh yeah right. Obama and the democrat party had a supermajority from 2008 through 2010 and could have unilaterally repealed the Patriot Act and did not. This indicates agreement. So it must have been a great idea for a supermajority of democrats to agree to extend it, right?
We don't trust the NSA. You worked with the NSA to weaken our privacy. We don't trust you. What's not to understand?
The heart of that issue is about random number generators. They are not perfect. John von Neumann: "Anyone who considers arithmetical methods of producing random digits is, of course, in a state of sin." I say, if you want truly random, talk to my kids! And lostFaith, the Bush administration gave us the Patriot act - if you want to talk about trashing our constitution, talk about that - over and over, loudly and clearly, until it's fixed.
What is more important is to get the names of the cryptographic chipset vendor/s who were blacked out in the NSA leaked document. It is likely they are the ones who put the NSA cryptographic routines into practice.

Sly finds himself in Ancient Egypt after the events of 'Thieves in Time', where he meets his ancestor, Slytunkhamen Cooper, the latter still working on the Cooper Vault and Thievius Raccoonus. After explaining and convincing him who he is, Sly has Slytunkhamen put a message in the Thievius Raccoonus, which Bentley picks up and uses it to travel back in time with Murray and Carmelita.
However, Paradox's time machine is still active and in the hands of a local warlord named Kaluk Warek, who surprisingly manages to get it to work for him, which threatens Sly's family history once more. So Sly and his friends travel back through time once more to save history.
SLY COOPER (Kevin Miller)
You know him: he's charming, he's cunning and he's world's greatest thief. Though honorable in nature, refusing to steal from ordinary people, only from master criminals. With his lifelong friends and true love at his side, he is ready to take on anyone.
In this game, Sly invents his own signature move, Reverse, briefly reverse time to undo small mistakes. He developed this due to the temporal displacement he was exposed to, while also drawing inspiration from the Speed Up and Slow Down Techniques.
BENTLEY (Matt Olsen)
As always Bentley is the brains of the operations, putting his tactical planning, gadgets, hacking and overall genius to the test.
His hacking segments consist of twin-stick hacking segments from Sly 4 (both the sidescrolling and the overhead, but no longer the tilting segments), which still has the basic code, Panzer Code but also features two new codes: First is the yellow Spinner Code, that can grind on data rails, spin to attack or deflect attacks (though can't fire projectiles like other codes). The other is the white Doppler Code, which can be used to copy enemy programs and use their abilities.
Bentley has updated his RC Car and his RC Chopper but also has gained an RC Boat, which is armed with a harpoon, used to pull down objects.
MURRAY (Chris Murphy)
Not the biggest on brains, but the biggest on heart and on brawn and a valued member of the Cooper Gang, 'the Murray' is ready to crack some skulls!
When he's not brawling, Murray's van is put to good use in not only time-travel but van races as well. He also resumes some of his Dreamtime abilities taught to him by his master, the Guru.
CARMELITA FOX (Grey Delisle)
Sly's love interest, though on opposite sides of the law. Conflicted between her police duties and her feelings, she does however help out against the threat that is Kaluk Warek.
Her game play has been improved so that her shots are more powerful, she even has gained a Crack-shot ability similar to Tennessee's. Her super jump is back one of her signature moves and she starts out with them.
ROBYN (Kelly MacDonald)
Robyn is a anthropomorphic cat and hails from Slaigh MacCooper's time period, being an adoptive sister to Slaigh as well as part of his Gang. Though when Sly and his friends travel to her time period, she falls in love with Murray, who initially rejected her because they were from different time periods. However Sly recalled an entry in the Thievius Raccoonus about her that she mysteriously vanished, later revealed to be because she chose to travel to the future with Murray to be with him, after a tearful goodbye with her brother figure Slaigh.
Robyn's skill lie in archery and she's extremely accurate with it. Her gameplay is similar to Archer costume Sly, only she can use arrows for offensive measures. She also has several trick arrows which are a crucial part of her gameplay: rope arrows which create ropes to walk on, ice arrows to freeze water, fire arrows to ignite, ricocheting arrows to shoot at angles and razor arrows to cut ropes and wires. She has learned some of the Coopers' family moves, but they are merely restricted to rope walking and sneaking across ledges.
PENELOPE (Annette Toutonghi)
Though to have betrayed the Cooper Gang when siding with Paradox. She was accidentally brought to Ancient Egypt when Kaluk Warek tampered with the time machine, and since then helped out the crazed owl in his plans. However, it's later revealed to suffer from multiple personality disorder, and her long time repression of her Black Baron persona after joining with the Coopers create an 'evil Penelope'.
The Cooper Gang finds this out, and Bentley personally confronts her once again, bringing out the good Penelope once again. After that, she returns to present day to follow therapy for her disorder, waiting for Bentley to return from his mission and rejoining the gang later on.
DIMITRI (David Scully)
Not playable in-game, he once again safeguards the Safe House and keeps tabs on the Thievius Raccoonus. Though he has actual in-game dialogue.
• Unlocked in: Walk like an Egyptian
This suit belonged to a grave robber who climbed the steep walls of the pyramids. This suit allows Sly to climb certain walls, similar to his ancestor Bob. Two Kopesh act as hooks to cling onto the walls but also serve as weapons in the hubworld, with shorter ranger but faster blows then Sly's cane.
• Unlocked in: Highland Heists
This suit consists of a nice kilt, a sword and a shield. The sword allows some very strong but slow attacks, while the shield can deflect lasers and certain projectile attacks.
• Unlocked in: A Pirate's Life
Similar to Salim's thief costume, used by Sly in Sly 4, this improved version of the costume can't only slow down time, but also speed it up as well. This allows for slow-moving objects used in platforming or the deterring of stage hazards to happen much faster.
ABORIGINAL COSTUME (this one is used by Murray, all the rest by Sly)
• Unlocked in: Ghost of London
Murray has been out of practice with his Dreamtime abilities, but eventually retrains himself to assist the gang better. His abilities include Time Stopper (which of course briefly stops time) and the Aboriginal Ball Form, which allows him to roll over objects and bounce real high as well.
• Unlocked in: War in the Sky
Originally the skin of a tiger Totenkopf shot while he was out hunting in the Far East, once Sly steals the pelt he uses it to create a new suit. With it Sly can jump over real long distances to One-Hit Kill foes (much like the Saber Toothed Tiger pelt) and also leap between spires that are further off (much like Riochi's Dragon Leap).
• Unlocked in: Father and Son
A lightweight suit with special skates, which allows Sly to move more easily on ice and other slippery surfaces, as well as skate past guards at high speeds without alerting them.
SLYTUNKHAMEN COOPER (Dale Wilson)
Sly's ancestor for Egypt, though not the first Cooper (that would be Bob) he is the first to use his thieving skills against corrupt nobility and other thieves. He is wise and calm, and really serious opposed to Sly's wise-cracks, though expresses joy over the fact that he might have a family in the future which will continue his traditions. His Cooper Cane is a spear with a hook shaped handle.
His ability is Shadow Power which makes him invisible for short periods of time, and he's even able to do all thief moves like climbing and pickpocketing while invisible. Though his Shadow Power differs that he can also use it to become intangible, phasing through certain walls.
• Charged Triangle attack: He slams his cane into the ground, and three spirit-like falcons encircle him.
• Square-Triangle attack: Creates a line of sand on the ground and that knocks everything down that it comes across.
• Smash attack: Smashes the foe upward, then creates a sand pit to drop him into.
SLAIGH MACCOOPER (John Dimaggio)
The physically strongest Cooper ever, though he is big he is able to use the thief moves passed down for generations. He's a loudmouth and sometimes rude, he is big on heart and he loves both fighting and feasting. He at first was skeptical about Sly due to his scrawnier physique, but quickly warms up when Sly shows that he greatly mastered the Cooper's thieving skills. He also gets along with Murray, due to both being big-hearted and strong. His Cooper Cane is big hammer like stone-headed cane.
Slaigh's special move is a powerful slam attack, in which he used his great physical strength to smash open doors and floor panels that are too strong for the other characters.
• Charged Triangle attack: Slams the cane down and creates a huge shockwave with his cane.
• Square-Triangle attack: Tosses a huge boulder forwards, crushing whatever is near its landing point.
• Smash attack: Smashes foe up with cane, then grabs the foe with his hand and smacks him down on the ground.
HENRIETTE ONE-EYE COOPER (Cree Summer)
Most well-known female Cooper and feared pirate, she is determined to show everyone she is not going to be overshadowed by her male ancestors or other pirates. She's bold, brave and adventurous though somewhat rash. She doesn't like taking orders, but when dealing with futuristic tech she realizes it's wise to listen to her descendant and his friends. She also shows great deal of respect towards Carmelita. Her cane is a cutlass with hook-shaped handle.
Henriette's signature move is the Quick-Step, which allows her to move across ropes and rails at high speeds, similar to Salim's Cobra Climb.
• Charged Triangle attack: Pulls out a second cutlass, and both canes spin around her like buzzsaws.
• Square-Triangle attack: Tosses several daggers forward.
• Smash attack: Tosses foe upwards, then traps them in a treasure chest, which then explodes in a puff of smoke.
THADDEUS WINSLOW COOPER (Jeff Bennett)
Well known master of disguise, and a gentleman, he is charming and polite, and always has an air of sophistication. Though he finds his descendant a bit crude, he shows some admiration for Sly. And he also tends to flirt around Carmelita, to Sly's dismay. His Cooper Cane is similar to Sly's, only it has a ruby encrusted in it.
His ability is Master of Disguise, allowing him to emulate any guard, even taking on their abilities in the progress.
• Charged Triangle attack: Attacks the foes with a razor-sharp cape.
• Square-Triangle attack: Tosses an exploding rose
• Smash attack: Knocks the foe up, then pulls out the blade part of his cane, impaling the foe on it.
OTTO VON COOPER (Dee Bradley Baker)
Otto didn't have the physical fitness to perform his ancestors' thief moves, but he more than makes up with technical genius, using gadgets and vehicles in his heists. Living during a period when the world was at war, he wants nothing to do with the war itself and resolves himself to steal from military officers. He is poetic in nature and sees the world in a negative light due to the war, but nevertheless he doesn't hesitate to help out his descendant and his gang.
He has not a real Cooper Cane, since he isn't one for combat, but has a wrench with the same hook shape as other Cooper canes, and the propeller blades on his plane have the same hook shape as well.
Since he isn't much good physically, his entire gameplay resolves around his bi-plane, being an excellent dogfighter and all.
CONNOR COOPER (Paul Eiding)
Sly's father, playable during the last chapter. He learns what his son has become in the future and can't help but feel pride. Though Sly told his father what might become of him, he refuses to let Sly save his life, because he doesn't want his future sacrifice to be in vain, and also because he doesn't want his son to waste the chance to meet his future gang and Carmelita. He wields the same cane as Sly, since in the future, Sly will inherit his cane from him.
Connor's special move is a variation of the Rail Walk and/or slide which he invented to move on lasers, he also invented a variation that allows him to Ninja Spire jump on laser nodes. Though Connor can only slide or jump on yellow lasers and nodes.
• Charged Triangle attack: Creates a powerful uppercut attack
• Square-Triangle attack: Creates and after image that shoots forward and strikes the foe or object.
• Smash Attack: Knocks the foe upwards, then spins his cane above him like a propeller, on which the foe lands and is obliterated.
KALUK WAREK (Ross Douglas)
• Species: Owl
Once in the service of the Pharaoh in Ancient Egypt, one of Slytankhamen's heists accidentally exposed his treacherous plans. He evaded capture and execution, but since then held a grudge against Sly's Ancestor. He continued his life of crime as the head of a gang of graverobbers, trying to outdo Slytankhamen, but failing each and every time.
He accidentally came across the remains of Paradox's blimp and after messing around with it, accidentally brought Penelope into his time period. Manipulating her into repairing the device, he plans to use it to be the greatest thief in history, but his planned coup against the Pharoah using future tech was foiled when Slytunkhamen, aided by his descendant Sly Cooper and the Cooper Gang rob him of his victory.
Though he faces Sly in combat and is defeated during the first episode, he and Penelope escape through time, where he resorts to make the descendants of his rival miserable by providing Penelope's futuristic tech for them, only to have all his plans backfire. Eventually he grows madder and more hateful at the Cooper's interference and eventually loses Penelope as an ally.
However, as Penelope slowly recovers from her schizophrenia, she tries banishing him using the Time machine, but accidentally sends him to a distant future, where his entire body was rebuilt by a mysterious scientist as a machine running on his hatred, renaming himself 'Clockwerk'. With a new built-in Time Machine he continued operations on his own.
He faces off with Sly in a final fight in Paris in the past while Sly's father was alive, and thought Clockwerk is defeated and his Time Machine is damaged, in his maddened state he tries to time-travel, which causes him to be stranded in the ice age, and with his time machine broken has no other choice but to wait thousands of years before enacting his revenge.
Sly wants to chase after Clockwerk to eradicate him from history, but he's halted by Bentley, who says Clockwerk's creation was meant to happen and his father convinces him it's for the best, as without Clockwerk, Sly would have never met Bentley, Murray or Carmelita. Besides, the Thievius Raccoonus clearly states that Clockwerk would always be upstaged by Sly's ancestors. So Sly lets him be, armed with the knowledge that his past self would put an end to Clockwerk permanently.
MCGUFFIN (Gary Schwartz)
• Species: Ram
Leader of a thief clan that rivals the MacCooper Clan in Celtic Scotland. Unlike the Coopers, the MacGuffin's methods are downright brutal and barbaric and in Sly's words, make the Huns and Spartans look tame. He is provided with futuristic tech by Kaluk Warek and Penelope, including a robotic Loch Ness Monster which Carmelita later destroys, which he plans to use to completely destroy the MacCoopers.
CAPTAIN BLACKFEATHER (Tim Curry)
• Species: Raven
Often described as the Scourge of the Seven Seas, he was the most well-known pirate until Henriette Cooper came along and robbed him of ship, crew and riches. Humiliated and bent on revenge, he was approached by Kaluk Warek, who provides him with a submarine, using the futuristic aquatic vehicle to sink Henriette's ship and once again become the dominant pirate captain.
THE PHANTOM (Nolan North as the Phantom)/Tara Strong as Maria)
• Species: Raccoon
The Phantom is a mysterious thief who rivals Thaddeus Cooper in Victorian London. Using clever parlor tricks he could make people believe he was actual phantom. Though Phantom and Thaddeus were friendly rivals, when Kaluk Warek arrived he brainwashed Phantom to serve him and abandon all form of honor.
Though the Cooper Gang caught up and after they defeated the Phantom and undid the brainwashing, Phantom is actually revealed to be a woman named Maria, who is in secret an adoring fan of Thaddeus and became a thief to impress him. Thaddeus feels flattered and then offers to take her out to dinner, which she gladly accepts. Sly later checks out the Thievius Raccoonus and sees that a year after that, Thaddeus and Mario have married, making her one of Sly's ancestors.
TOTENKOPF (Bumper Robinson)
• Species: Boar
A dog-fighting champ during the World war who had a fierce rivalry with Otto Von Cooper, always bested in aerial combat by the latter. Kaluk Warek provided him with better aerial artillery to finally one-up his rival, only to fail once again once the future Cooper Gang arrives to help Otto overcome him.
CYRIL LE PARADOX SR.(Nolan North)
• Species : Skunk
The father of Le Paradox who appears when Sly travels back in time and meets up with his father. Like Sly's father Connor, he is after the World's Biggest Diamond. Though history says Sly's father is supposed to steal it, sealing his reputation as a master thief, Clockwerk approaches him and offers his help to have Le Paradox and himself rise to infamy instead. But interference by the Coopers caused Connor to steal the Diamond as history predicted.

Mars Sample Return Site Selection & Sample Acquisition Study (1980)
- Monday January 27, 2014
Let's go grab some Mars rocks! But where to land and what kinds of rocks to collect? Scientists have tried to answer those questions for nearly 50 years.
Let's go grab some Mars rocks! But where to land and what kinds of rocks to collect? Scientists have tried to answer those questions for nearly 50 years.
Selecting safe and scientifically interesting landing sites for the first successful Mars landers, Viking 1 and Viking 2, was a long and complex process. Here's how it began.
Forty-three years ago today Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed the Apollo 11 Lunar Module Eagle on the Sea of Tranquility. They performed a single moonwalk, never straying more than 60 meters from Eagle. Beyond Apollo blogger David S. F. Portree describes another, more daring plan for exploring Tranquility – one which would have seen the astronauts plan out a two-kilometer moonwalk soon after they landed.
If the Apollo 13 Lunar Module Aquarius had malfunctioned en route to the moon, NASA had a plan: the crew would have dumped the failed moon lander, entered lunar orbit in the Command and Service Module Odyssey, and photographed candidate future landing sites to aid Apollo planners. Beyond Apollo blogger David S. F. Portree looks at this ironic twist on actual Apollo 13 events.
All fields of scientific exploration have their pioneers, the giants upon whose shoulders stand today's scientific explorers. Harold Urey, winner of the Nobel Prize in 1934 for his discovery of deuterium, became in the 1950s a pioneer of lunar science. In 1961, NASA asked him to recommend lunar landing sites. Beyond Apollo blogger David S. F. Portree describes Urey's 13 sites and what the Nobel Laureate believed they might tell us about the moon.
If some scientists had had their way, an Apollo crew would have followed the Surveyor 7 robot explorer to the great ray crater Tycho. David S. F. Portree, space historian and Beyond Apollo blogger, explores this might-have-been Apollo mission.

All Round Brett
Cherries legend, Steve Fletcher, hails the contrinution being made by Brett Pitman in the Cherries promotion push.
On his return to Dean Court, there were a few raised eye brows when the name of Brett Pitman was revealed as the man to lead the Cherries from the front, but in recent weeks and 14 goals to his name, Brett Pitman has, beyond, doubt, proved his doubters wrong.
Speaking in the Bournemouth Evening Echo, Steve Fletcher, is quoted as saying about the Cherries leading marksman: "He will always score goals. He scored goals as a teenager and got a ridiculous amount in one season for the youth team. He is a 15 to 20-goal man every single season. But there is more to Brett than just goals now. His work-rate, desire to help the team and his professionalism makes him an all-round better player. Brett is not just known now as a goalscorer. He has got a lot more to his game. He is good in the air as well and wins so many headers for his size. I think he has turned into an all-round top striker at this level. I think he has to be in that category of top strikers in the division. It is not just him, I would put Lewis Grabban and Matt Tubbs in there as well. If Brett had been here since the start of the season and in the form he is in now, I think he would probably have been fighting Matt Ritchie for League One player of the year. I think Brett is more of a team player now than he ever was. He works really hard for the team and his work-rate of late has been second to none and that is what has probably impressed me the most. His professionalism and decision making has been different class recently. I told him after the Bury game that I thought he was magnificent – the way he led the line and chose the right option almost every time. I think that is the maturity side of him".

Beaufort County buys land slated for 400 homesHILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C. (AP) — Beaufort County has purchased and will preserve 98 acres of land near the Okatie River where 400 homes had been planned. The Island Packet of Hilton Head (http://bit.ly/XiNn1w) reports county council agreed this week to buy the tract for $1.5 million. The land is valued by the county at almost $4 million. The conservation director of the Beaufort County Open Land Trust, Garrett Budds, says buying the land will prevent more storm water runoff from damaging the river near Hilton Head Island. In addition to the homes, 65,000 feet of commercial space had been planned for the tract. Money for the purchase came from the county's Rural and Critical Lands conservation program. The program has almost $4 million left from $50 million voters agreed to borrow six years ago. ___ Information from: The Island Packet, http://www.islandpacket.com |

i don't think i've ever told my kids they needed to wear shoes unless it was to school.
Kids shouldnt have to wear shoes to school and if a school makes a kid wear shoes there then I wouldnt send them there. There are plenty of schools around so youre bound to find one that allows kids to go barefoot and if all else fails the kid can always be homeschooled and then it doesnt matter what they wear. I dont like modern schools anyways, the whole education system is screwed up, too much laziness and corrupt people working in it.
had a lady in a store tell me i couldn't shop there if i didn't put shoes on my kids next time
What makes her think theres gonna be a next time? If shes so stuck up about your kids wearing shoes into her place then its not worth wasting time going in there, you should really take your business somewhere else where the customers wishes are more respected. Nobody should have to put up with that NS3 crap from stores.

But now it seems strange if a child goes around without shoes. When did the change happen?
When all the conservative nutcases started taking over everything and influencing society. I guess they wouldnt feel they are able to impose their outdated morals on us unless everyone is wearing shoes so we dont offend anyone.
Posted December 30 2005 - 04:35 PM
But now it seems strange if a child goes around without shoes. When did the change happen?
Blame it on our "lawsuit happy society", merchant's phamtom laws, and the athletic shoe industry, especially Nike and Adidas.
Growing up most kids had two kinds of shoes, your Sunday or "School shoes" and sneakers for gym class. You either wore your nice shoes when appropriate or your PF Flyers (that was a brand of tennis shoe back in the 50's and 60's), or just went barefoot.
Thanks to the fashion industry, tennis shoes are not just for gym class anymore and you need several makes and styles to be considered a part of the "in" crowd. And now a water shoe, a WATER shoe????? P'leezze! Now kids can't go the the waterparks and pools barefoot.
So much for barefooting........kids don't know what they are missing.
Posted December 30 2005 - 04:56 PM
they are also Taoist, not that that has anything to do with them being barefoot. They are really nice people, not like was portrayed on the show.

Letting a child make their own decisions is the best thing you can do for them.
Posted January 02 2006 - 11:04 PM
Posted January 03 2006 - 10:15 PM
Eh.... there's a balance though... Sometimes the most important word a child can hear is "No". As far as barefooting goes... it's free, it's probably beneficial, and it doesn't hurt anyone. I can't see any reason to discourage it.
Anybody who tells a kid "no" when they wanna go barefoot oughta feel ashamed of themselves. There are so many other things that parents have to tell their kids they cant do, going barefoot shouldnt be one of them. Kids need to enjoy their freedom while they can.

It's funny cause thats like on eof the very few things they ever let me make up my mind about as a child. I am glad they did though....oh yeah they made me wear shoes if I was riding a bike oo.....I didnt put up and argument with that one though I did some crazy shit on my bikes.
Posted January 06 2006 - 10:36 AM
When I was a kid they said I used to kick and scream when they would try to put shoes on me, so they just stopped (unless I was going to school)...
They shouldve let you go barefoot to school and if anybody said anything to you, your parents couldve chewed them out for it. I dont think any kid should be made to wear shoes to school, theres no good excuse for that.
We were all at a Denny's one morning and the management came by my parents table and refused to serve us because I was barefoot and i was like 3.....so My parents have not gone back to Denny's in almost 16 years.
I wouldnt wanna go back to a place like that if they refused to serve me just because of something silly like being barefoot. If they refuse to serve customers so easily then im surprised they dont go out of business. Its better to refuse service to customers who rightfully dont belong in the restaurant cuz theyre causing a disturbance not because of something simple like being barefoot. If I ran that chain and found out one of the managers refused service to a customer just because their kid was barefoot, id fire em.

Easiest way to go barefoot on a bike is just wait till youre out of sight of your parents and then just kick your shoes off, throw em in a bag and then just keep riding barefoot. What they dont know wont hurt them.

Posted January 06 2006 - 03:18 PM
the only reason they wanted me to wear shoes anyways was cause my mom used to ride her bike barefoot when she was a kid and got her toe or something stuck in the chain...but yeah its all good.
I think its pretty easy not to get your foot caught in anything on the bike if youre careful when pedalling. I used to ride a bike *never barefoot* and I never got my toe caught in anything. It would probably be easier and more fun to ride a bike barefoot anyways.

I live in windsor ontario and we are incredibly filthy. my feet are stained black from march until december. since i got chronic bronchitis, it's alot easier for me to catch pneumonia and for it to be fatal.
letting your kids go barefoot is wonderful, but you have to think about the fact that it's very easy to get sick through your feet.
i suggest having them bring sandals with them to school to go into bathrooms at the very least.

and since i go barefoot only in the house now, i don't get it anymore. or not as often at least. i've had it about twice since i started wearing shoes.
it's not shoes i have a huge problem with, it's socks.
i usuallly wear shoes without socks now.
Posted January 12 2006 - 10:33 PM
bronchitis is caught from entering your mouth, nose, eyes not your skin, so unless you put your feet near those areas its not possible.
Also about athletes foot. Going barefoot actually gets rid of it and before I went barefoot I had a severe problem with athletes foot that no spray was working, my Doc told me to go barefoot for a month as much as possible out of school so thinking he was crazy at the time I did and it cleared out in 2 weeks. Yes you can catch it by going barefoot but only in wet places like pool or shower where someone else did and then slip into shoes with still damp feet, it will trap the fungas and cause it to grow.
If you look at this article:
Its for fungal nail infection but its shows the cause it athletes foot and it lists one of the cures as going barefoot as much as possible (Says at home but thats just to protect them from any problems people have if they went barefoot outside their house.) You will also notice one of the causes is going barefoot in the shower or pool.

Although I believe that it is often misused, because it is part of the current fashion (much like some of the other questions I have been coaching you for that reflects a previous style of interviewing), it must be paid attention to and prepared for.
In this section, we focus on offering you attention to detail questions that will allow you to be prepared when this line of inquiry begins.
Please give me some examples of things you have done on previous jobs that have demonstrated your ability to pay attention to detail. What resulted from your actions?
Please give me an example of where you may have found an error in some aspect of work that others may have overlooked. What was the error, how did you find out, what actions did you take, and what resulted from your actions?
Do you notice the quality of detailed thought they are looking for in the questioning? it goes beyond that to seeing how you interact with others. Do you create conflict or solutions? Are you cooperative or argumentative?
Here are a few more:
Tell about a time when you needed to develop and use a detailed procedure to successfully complete a project.
Tell us about a job or setting where great precision to detail was required to complete a task. How did you handle that situation?
How did you go about making the changes (step by step)? Please answer in depth or detail such as "What were you thinking at that point?" or "Tell me more about meeting with that person", or "Lead me through your decision process".
Please describe your experience in past jobs that required you to be especially alert to details while doing the task involved.
Some people consider themselves to be "big picture people" and others are "detail oriented". Which are you? Give an example of a time when you displayed this.
This has danger associate with it because you need to understand the nature of the job and the corporate culture to answer it to the interviewer's satisfaction.
Here are a few more to prepare for:
Describe a situation where you had the option to leave the details to others or you could take care of them yourself.
Tell us about a situation where attention to detail was either important or unimportant in accomplishing an assigned task.
Tell us about a difficult experience you had in working with details.
These are all questions that require you to dig a little deeper and reveal facets of your personality as it pertains to attention to detail.

Sorry...*CREEPYPASTA*It was like every other stupid weekday. I lay on my side on the bed, toying around with my DSi, thinking about nothing in particular. It was a balmy nintey-five degrees outiside, natural for a mid-spring day in southern California, and I broke out in a sweat everytime the oscelating fan turned away from me for a second.Pokemon Black. My latest addition to my growing Pokemon collection. It had currently become my "main" game, where I store all of my best Pokemon. If only I knew where my Heartgold, I could start shipping my guys there onto here. Someday...Suddenly as I cycled through Undella Town ingame, I had the strangest urge to break out my old Gameboy and play one of my older Pokemon games. I quickly saved my Black and tucked the DSi safely under my pillow like the paranoid little bugger I am, and reached for the ancient system in the drawer next to my bed.I went ahead and took out the Hamtaro game that inside it already and browsed over which game I should play.

About this location
The Edinburgh region
Edinburgh offers a wide range of activities as befits Scotland's capital city and is wonderful to visit at any time of year; it is small and intimate enough to allow the visitor to wander through its streets absorbing its architecture and atmosphere.
The city has mediaeval origins and many of its best known sights are to be found in the Old Town around the Royal Mile. It also, by contrast, has one of the largest areas of Georgian buildings in the world and these are to be found in what is called the New Town.
The Royal Mile runs from Edinburgh Castle at one end down to Holyrood Palace at the bottom. Many of Edinburgh's major tourist attractions are to be found in this vicinity though half the charm of this vibrant part of town is to explore the city's ancient mediaeval closes which lead off the main thoroughfare.
This area with its mediaeval origins also extends to the Grassmarket and Victoria Street which have an array of enticing shops, bars and restaurants. Visit Gladstone's Land, Holyrood Abbey and Palace (not forgetting the Queen's Gallery which hosts exhibitions from the Royal Collection), Dynamic Earth, the controversial Scottish Parliament building and John Knox's House, which are all within a short walk of the apartment.

"Perfect and comfortable"
We were 5 adults and a baby. We staying at gentle's entry for a week. We were practically one minute away from the Royal Mile and the house was just perfect, comfortable, clean, furbished with plates cutlery and whatnot. Would absolutely recommend it! Very friendly managers and easy to contact for any question. Great great!

I'm writing this review sitting on a private patio, overlooking the Pacific Ocean just after sunset on the last day of a 5 day trip with myself, my husband, our two year-old and our 4 month-old.
