Non-GAAP Financial Measures To provide investors with greater insight, promote transparency and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, the Company supplements its combined consolidated statements of income presented on a GAAP basis with non-GAAP financial measures of earnings. Please refer to the schedule in this release for a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures. Management uses economic income, economic net income and economic net income per adjusted share as financial measures to evaluate the profitability and efficiency of the Company's business model. Economic income, economic net income and economic net income per adjusted share are not presented in accordance with GAAP. Economic income excludes from income before provision for income taxes:- the non-cash interest expense associated with the liability for shares subject to mandatory redemption. Upon consummation of the initial public offering, such mandatory redemption obligation terminated and the Company no longer reflects in its financial statements non-cash interest expense or the liability related to such obligation; and
- the reorganization-related share-based compensation, which results in non-cash compensation expense reported over the vesting period. In addition, upon the consummation of the initial public offering, the vesting terms related to the ownership of its employees were modified, including the Company's named executive officers, other than William Manning. Such individuals were entitled to 15% of their ownership interests upon the consummation of the offering, and 15% of their ownership interests over the subsequent three years. The remaining ownership interests are subject to performance-based vesting over such three-year period. Such new vesting terms will not result in dilution to the number of outstanding shares of the Company's Class A common stock. As a result of such vesting requirements, the Company will recognize non-cash compensation charges through 2014.

The FIAs Charlie Whiting has revealed to the media that from next months Canadian race onwards, Grands Prix may feature two DRS zones, opening up the prospect of even more overtaking. Current plans for Montreal are to allow drivers to use the moveable rear wing on the back straight and the main straight.
Races thus far this season have featured just one DRS zone, usually on the tracks longest straight, but with the detection/activation technology having been honed during 2011s first four Grands Prix, Whiting feels the software is now ready to allow for two zones on suitable circuits, usually ones where there are long straights in close succession.
Canada is thus set to see one detection point just after the Circuit Gilles-Villeneuves Turn 10 hairpin, followed by a first activation zone down the long back straight. Drivers will then have to close the wing for the final chicane, before being able to activate it for a second time on the start-finish straight.
The following European round at the Valencia Street Circuit in Spain is also due to have two zones, the first between Turns 10 and 12 and the second between 14 and 17.
This weekends Barcelona race will retain its one DRS zone, with the detection point just prior to the final corner and the activation point shortly after it. Next weekends Monaco round will also have one zone, on the start-finish straight.

Throwback Thursday- Paul Han
You'd be hard pressed to find a more charismatic, versatile player then Paul Han. Paul was touring the world, playing yo-yo for huge crowds, before many hadeven picked up a yo-yo. Now, over a decade later, Paul still has the energy and passion.
In honor of "Throwback Thursday" we wanted to share Paul's 1998 US National freestyle, along side his recent BAC performance. FIRE!

Over at YoYoFactory Europe there is a Video Contest going on with some great entries from all over the world. Be sure to check out the YoYoFactory Europe Blog for more entries and read all about the contest here. Also, check out one of our favorite entries so far. From Japan, Ginji vs. Ginji!
08 Jun 2012
YoYoFactory is pleased to announce a new Protegé to the team: Betty Gallegos from Mexico City. Betty has been yo-yoing for almost 2 years, but don't let that fool you. She has 2 National Titles in the Female division. She is also very active in the yo-yo scene, attending club practice on a weekly basis. Tyler has been an inspiration to her during his many trips to Mexico contests, so it's seems fitting for him to take Betty under his wing.
07 Jun 2012
Didn't make it to BAC? Don't worry, we were there and we brought our cameras too! Here's some of the YoYoFactory team in action. Both Contest Team and Protegé squared off at one of the most competitive contests of the year.

YoYoFactory Takes Top 5 @ BAC 2012
One of the cornerstones of YoYoFactory is our team. You'd be hard pressed to find a more eclectic group of up-and-comers, veterans, future, and current champions. Their skill is undeniable.
Future Champions, Paul and Luis are focused and hungry any title they go for. With a 1-2 finish, their biggest competitor? Each other. You'd be hard pressed to find a more dynamic duo that push each other to succeed on and off the stage. Last year at the World Championships they showed what they were capable of. And this year they are on the top of the list for the top spot in the world.
The Veteran, Paul Han has accomplished the most winning BAC career in history. 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2003, 2004 and 2006 were champion years at BAC for him. And when he wasn't the top spot, he was still on the podium. 2012 brought yet another top 3 placing. 15 years of undeniable skills.
Current Champion, for Harold Owens III, 2011 was a stellar year. And he's not planning on making 2012 any different. With a US National Title under his belt, he hit 2012 running with a very experimental California States freestyle. For BAC Harold took a new approach to trick development. Trying to strip down all the filler and concentrate on amazing trick composition. And it definitely showed. Next stop, the Worlds stage.
The Up-and-Comer, Kevin Nicholas is fast becoming the underdog of 2012. Breaking onto the US contest scene at PNWR earlier in the year, at Cal States we knew we wanted him on the team. And after his back breaking performance at BAC, we knew it was Contest Team material. His precision and unique approach has gained accolades from his peers, and a firm hold on earning a finals spot at Worlds this year.

Bay Area Classic Wrap-Up
The Deal
Prior to the competition Paul and Luis struck a deal. If they could win 1st and 2nd, they would win a trip to 44Clash.
I hope they like sushi.
The Joker
Wild Card Paul Han. It is easy to forget Paul Han was a narrow 2nd at Nationals 2010 and how much of a contender he is every time he walks on stage. He was 2 Mexicans away from taking another BAC title 15 years after his first.
The People favorites
Gentry Stein wasn't on the stage but he certainly was winning hearts off the stage. Without the demands of competing Gentry spent most of the day sharing tricks off to the side of the stage with anyone interested in learning. A true star.
The YoYo
One – Star was it. There is a challenge in making high performance low priced yoyos and it usually comes in the form of lower durability. At a low price less skilled users are not dissuaded from purchase meaning lots of people who don't know what they are doing get their hands on yoyos you need a little bit of savy to use. This yoyo is our latest shot at it and it is too early to tell for sure but the general crowd reaction suggests we got it right.
The mindblower
Kevin Nicholas isn't new to yoyo or competitions but a move to Seattle for school from Indonesia has put him firmly under the spotlight. Solid Cal States and PNWR freestyles enhanced his reputation and BAC sealed the deal. TRUE horizontal BEHIND THE BACK. Those in the crowd watching him practice off stage know he is holding his best stuff back too. Worlds? Nationals? LOOKOUT!!!
Harold Owens III
Come August in Orlando the USA could not have a better representative seeded into finals. Harold proved it once again he has the tricks he has the composure and he has what it takes. Over 3 minutes, on THAT stage? Game ON.
The battle continues! the winner? Guess who? (don't sue!)
Pre-contest fun! over $800 worth of prizes GIVEN AWAY, grab bag deals plus the Avant Garde 2 release. Everyone had fun. Thanks guys.
Day After
Nothing better than finding somewhere relaxing to hang out, with food provided and some sunshine. The BAC organizers did it right. Cant wait for BAC 2013!

The Free GTAV iFruit and Game Manual Companion Apps
In support of this week's worldwide release of Grand Theft Auto V, we've got a special pair of totally free companion apps that will be available for download starting today to enhance and aid your game experience.
Grand Theft Auto: iFruit – featuring Los Santos Customs and Chop the Dog
The free iFruit mobile app hooks directly into your Grand Theft Auto V experience featuring:
- Los Santos Customs - The Los Santos Customs app offers players the freedom to create their ultimate vehicle in Grand Theft Auto V from anywhere. At the bar, on the beach, on the toilet. This is the future, we're almost sure of it. You can even create and reserve custom license plates for both Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online – order your personalized plates before they're gone! Also choose from paint jobs, window tints, smoke colors, wheels, hoods and spoilers. Upgrade your engine, brakes, exhaust, suspension, and accessorize with new lights, horns, tires and body armor. Place your order on-the-go and find it waiting for you in the garage the next time you play Grand Theft Auto V, or send your order in while playing and get a call from your local mechanic to swing by. Everybody's had some work done in Los Santos, so don't let your ride be the exception to the rule.
- Chop the Dog - Depth of content, high production values, defecation. It's the app that has it all. Because who doesn't love tending to a virtual pet? Chop is Franklin's canine sidekick in Grand Theft Auto V. Look after him well in the Chop the Dog app and you will reap the benefits when playing as Franklin in Grand Theft Auto V. Pet him, feed and water him, play fetch and tug-of-war, teach him tricks. Too much or too little of an activity, however, will cause Chop to become unhappy, and nobody likes an unhappy Rottweiler. Take Chop on walks to give him a chance to work off last night's steak and Piswasser and to mark his turf in the hood - defending his ladies, fending off gang members and even protecting the beach babes of Los Santos from unsightly tan lines by removing their bikinis.
Grand Theft Auto V: The Manual
As this is the biggest Grand Theft Auto game to date, we literally couldn't fit everything into an old fashioned style printed booklet anymore so instead we have taken the tradition of the classic GTA game manual into the digital era properly and have created for you a massive over-100-page free digital app for smartphones, tablets as well as desktops called Grand Theft Auto V: The Manual. The official manual app has everything from essential and practical Game Controls, Features and Credits info to a tour through the activities and local shops and brands in the game – and best yet, a special digital version of the game map to zoom in and explore with an interactive legend to browse neighborhoods and points of interest all over the entire world of Los Santos and Blaine County.
Both of these free digital apps will be available for download beginning today, and we will update this post with more information and download links as they become available throughout the week for other platforms and devices.
The iFruit Mobile Application
Now available for iOS devices at the App Store, for Android devices via Google Play, for Windows Phone and for PlayStation Vita.

Now available for iOS devices at the App Store, for Android devices via Google Play, for Windows Phone and as a desktop application on PC and Mac.

| UpdatedPrime Minister Tony Abbott says he has no plans to change the way the ABC operates, despite criticising the public broadcaster for showing "poor judgement" in publishing leaked documents about Australia's intelligence gathering operations.
ABC managing director Mark Scott was forced to defend the organisation, hitting out at News Corporation this morning for launching a "concentrated attack" on the ABC and accusing some sections of the media of being "obsessed" by the national broadcaster.
The spying scandal erupted last month when the ABC and The Guardian revealed that Australia had tapped the phones of Indonesian president Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono and members of his inner circle.
Mr Abbott says the ABC was guilty of "very poor judgement" in publishing the stories, but stopped short of saying he would take action against the public broadcaster.
"My intention is to speak plainly and candidly with the Australian people in the hope that ABC management will see sense," he said.

Gasoline shortage hits Egypt, tempers flare
CAIRO (AP) — An acute fuel shortage in Egypt has disrupted Cairo's already congested traffic, with long lines of vehicles snaking around gas stations, and drivers spending the night in their cars.
In rural Egypt, witnesses on Thursday said scuffles and knife fights erupted among frustrated drivers. Some even fired guns in the air.
Workers at gas stations complain of receiving only half their usual quantity of fuel.
Making matters worse, public transportation has been crippled by a weeklong strike.
Fingers are pointing in all directions.
The government blames the black market. Many drivers blame the government for mismanagement. Others blame the sagging economy.
Egypt's economy has been battered by the aftereffects of last year's uprising that deposed longtime leader Hosni Mubarak. Because of continuing turmoil, tourism and foreign investments are down drastically.

Brake Controller Install Help Request
I'm having trouble identifying the connector to plug my factory brake controller adapter into. I've removed the driver's side kick panel and searched for a connector with nothing attached and didn't find one. The towing bible write up had one close up picture of the connector but didn't give enough context for me to identify it.
Could someone please help identify where the factory brake controller should be connected? Here's a couple of images with my kick panel removed: http://www.tacomaworld.com/gallery/d.../IMG_03661.JPG http://www.tacomaworld.com/gallery/d.../IMG_03681.JPG http://www.tacomaworld.com/gallery/d.../IMG_03672.JPG Thanks in advance! |
Hi, I just installed a prodigy brake controller in my 09 TRD. It was little difficult to find since mine was zip tied to another wire harness. But, it is tucked in there and it does have the white connector like the 1 in the towing bible pic. Just look carefully at all the harnesses for that open white connector. Also, camping world sells a plug and go adapter for our trucks. I didnt use the bare wire 1 that came with truck. Hope this helps.
I cut the electrical tape around the bundle below just to make sure, but every connector in this bunch is already mated up. Right now I'm convinced that they just forgot to pull mine through to the kick panel, but I know that sounds dumb. I'm thinking I'll run down to the dealership and see if one of the service guys can make some sense of what I'm looking at. http://www.tacomaworld.com/gallery/d...IRE_BUNDLE.JPG |
do you know where it is yet. I am having the exact same problem
found it
the connection is to the left of the parking brake switch behind the largest bundle of wires. look behind the wires close to where the letter "n" in the word not is in the above photo |
Thanks for all the advice. I ended up going to the dealership and one of the service guys said that they always take the bottom half of the dash off to retrieve the connector. I bet you could probably find it without taking off the bottom dash, but you'd have to know where to look.
Once I got the bottom part of the dash off, I could see it very clearly. I still had to retrieve it by reaching my hand up from underneath, but it was much easier. |
now that I know where it is, I could get to it without taking off the kick panel or the lower part of the dash..before my first post today I spent at least 30 minutes looking for it and could not find it.
Brake Controler
I found mine it is tucked in the wad of wires. I extended mine and put a four wire male to female connector on it, I ran the wires to the empty pocket on the right side below the steering wheel. I just plug it in when I need it. Now if you intend to use the Manuel brake you may want to mount it.

Fiolee- I'm not supposed to be in love! Chapter 18Chapter 18: Oooh, Reltia!Marshall's POV"Fiona?" My eyes widen as I sit up, my undead heart starting up again. She nods and I feel a smile spreading across my face. I reach out to hug her, but she backs away from me."I...I still don't know who you are or how you know me." She pauses and something flickers in her face. As if remembering something.".....When you had those guys take me away... Why did you say 'I'm sorry'?" She bites her lip and looks away for a moment."Because..... I've.... Seen you.... In my dreams before." My eyes widen. "I've literally had dreams where you and me..... We hang out and do math stuff. Like play... Whatever that blue box thing is." I give her a sympathetic smile. She really can't remember anything huh?"It's name is BMO." Her nose scrunches up at the odd name."That box has a name? Weird.....""It lives with you! Along with Cake." She instantly looks at me with a sugar crazed look on her face."Cake? I live with CAKE!?" I chuckle at her misunderstandin
Of Good and Evil (Fiolee) - Ch.1Fionna found herself smiling as she wandered through the streets of the Candy Kingdom. She was walking back from one of her rare dates with Prince Gumball.Fionna cherished all the time she spent with Gumball, even if he just thought of her as his lab subject and on-call adventurer. Fionna could deal with that if he occasionally invited her on a date.The day started when Gumball had invited Fionna and Cake over to test some strange new invention he'd made. Fionna never really liked being his test subject, but anything to be with Gumball was good enough for her. On the way to the Candy Castle, Cake had explained to her that she was being used. By utilizing her undying crush on him, Gumball made her do too many favors and lame jobs for him. Cake had to make it clear that is was rude for Gumball to abuse Fionna's crush on him. Fionna thought long and hard about this, and then she saw Gumball smiling towards her, and decided she didn't care.After a long day spent
New Love chapter 1Fionna pov.................I was walking into the forest in my light blue tank top and denim shorts along with my bunny headband and black converse. Im now 18 so I grew out of my bunny hat and old clothes. I was on my way to meet my boyfriend flame prince and when I got there he had a sad look on his face. He hadn't texted or called me in about four months but we would meet up and go on dates and such but he always left about twenty minutes when we went some where like the movies or out to eat. "hey flame prince" I said with a smile on my face but he didn't reply. He just got up and stood in front of me. "fionna I cant be with you anymore" he said his expression still not changing. "wh-what?" I said tears beginning to fill up in my eyes. "I cant hold your hand or ill burn you I cant kiss you or you'll get hurt I cant hug you without burning your clothes and I just dont feel the spark anymore besides ive met another girl id be happier with because atleast she understands me and...im m
Fiolee On the Edge of InnocenceFionna's pov"Come on Cake!" I yelled, shrugging on my green backpack. "We're gonna be late for our jam session with Marshall!" She was running especially slow today. Probably because she didn't really want to go. I pushed the thought away and snagged a piece of toast that had popped out of the toaster. I took a bite out of it, wincing as it burned my throat after I swallowed it. It was still steaming as it reached my stomach. I knew it was early but I kinda wanted to spend the whole day with Marshall. I probably sound like a total girl now..."I'm coming baby cakes," Cake said as she slid down the ladder to the top floor of the tree house. "I'm bringing my dulcimer." I rolled my eyes as she slid it onto her back."Does it really take that much time to get it?" I said, annoyed."Did he say to come this early?" she said, changing the subject. "He may not even be awake yet " I shrugged."I'm sure he won't mind. Besides he said we could come over any time""Yeah, at
Feelings - FioLee - Chapter 1Fionna is seen walking through the Land of Aaa's field's, not too far from her and Cake's tree house. She stops walking, putting her hands to her hips. She pouts, "Geez, I'm so bored." She glances around the area, "Cake is out with Mochro. What can I do in the time being?" She sighed sadly thinking, "I want to go adventuring with Cake..." As Fionna pouts in boredom, a black figure is seen creeping behind her back. The black figure raises it's arms up and attempts to scare Fionna. The figure hissed at Fionna as she slowly turned around, "ARGH!!" the girl screamed. The figure turned out to be Marshall Lee, the Vampire King! The sly creature ridiculed at Fionna's frightful condition. "Ahahahaha! You should see the look on your face. Priceless!!" Fionna gets up and punches Marshall's face. "Ouch! That hurt!" Fionna pouts and replied, "Well, it's your own fault for scaring me like that!" Marshall rubs his fa
Into the Dark:A Marshall Lee and Fionna Fanfic Ch1INTO THE DARK: A Marshall Lee and Fionna StoryCHAPTER ONE: BALANCESomewhere in the Land of Aaa, there exists a Dark Forest. Should you ever find yourself lost in those deep woods, there is a good chance you'd never find your way out. Now, it was never easy getting to that area in the first place, and the Keep Out and Danger signs should be enough to steer away any sane person. Even before that, you'd have to pass the Candy Kingdom (which would be a much nicer place to stay, don't you think?), the Grasslands (where you'd find a very radical treehouse, thankyouverymuch), and the Hole in the Center of the World (which wasn't REALLY bottomless, according to rumor). If none of those locations caught your attention, you'd find yourself in the eeriest forest outside of the Nightosphere.Currently, there was a young human girl lost in the Dark Forest, shoving her way through the thick branches, crushing dead leaves beneath her black shoes, and grumbling because she was covered, head to toe,

I listened to the sounds of nature,but what caught my attention was when I heard rustling in the bushes and a tan and white cat tackled me down and to the ground. "Marshall!" the cat screamed into my ear "What do you want cake! Are you trying to get me burned by the sunlight!?" I yelled at her "Fine if your gonna be like that im not gonna tell you about fionna" cake smiled and turned around her back facing me. Fionna! I stopped floating and got on me knee's "please cake is fionna back or not! I'm sorry I snapped at you!" I begged with my eyes growing wide and tears streaming down my cheeks.Cake rolled her eyes and sighed "Fine,yes fionna is back and ok,gumb

Be careful in political discussions online of running into an extremist.
You may get initially suckered into listening to them for awhile at first because they'll whine about being persecuted but then you'll start to get a gauge on how much hatred of others goes into their ideas. If they ever stopped to examine themselves they might realize the reason they are 'persecuted' by everybody who is not part of their cause is because when they don't succeed at persuading the listener they resort to a whole bunch of little threats and "death to"s. It's the overblown sense of entitlement from the speaker that will throw the listener off balance for a bit.

Medieval guide to party crashing in Iraq reveals 'different' Islam
A Muslim preacher's guide to "party crashing" in 11th Century Iraq challenges "ill-informed ideas" of early Islam, its translator has said.
The University of Manchester's Dr Emily Selove said al-Khatib al-Baghdadi's text contained "flirtation, profanity and even a little drunkenness".
She said its perspective was different to "the austere image" of the period.
She said ignorance existed because "so little of the literature produced at that time has been translated".
Her translation, titled The Art of Party Crashing, features "the most famous gatecrasher of the time", a man called Bunan, who Dr Selove said was "a cross between Falstaff and Robin Hood".
She said it was "a tongue in cheek compilation of stories, advice and anecdotes" which was written by the preacher to remind readers "that every serious minded person needs to take a break".
'Banquet literature'She said it was a "light and really quite an enjoyable read", but had "serious messages too".
"The book is about generosity and encouraging individuals to express themselves eloquently and clearly," she said.
Preacher's 11th Century joke book
al-Khatib al-Baghdadi's book contains several jokes about party crashing, including:
- Once a man crashed another man's party. "'Who are you?" the host asked him. "'I'm the one who saved you the trouble of sending an invitation!" he replied.
- Once a party-crasher walked in the house of a man who had invited a gathering of people. "Hey, you!" the man said. "Did I say you could come?" "Did you say I couldn't come?" the party crasher replied.
- Bunan had eaten and eaten well, and someone said to him, "Slow down! You'll kill yourself!" "If it is time to die," Bunan replied, "I want to go well fed and well watered, not parched and hungry."
"It also suggests that turning a hungry person away from a place laden with food was cruel - as food was sometimes in short supply to the poor."
She said the book was part of a "genre of banquet literature [which contain] stories about tricksters and rogues, people getting drunk and having a good time".
"This book, which contains flirtation, profanity, and even a little drunkenness, is a lot of fun and offers a rather different perspective to the austere image Islam has from that period," she said.
"The reality is that the Baghdad of 1,000 years ago was actually rather Bohemian - it wasn't perfect by any means, but [also was] not the violent and repressive society you might imagine it was.
"Such ignorance is probably down to the fact that so little of the huge body of literature produced at that time has been translated into English."

About this time ten years ago, I went through a rough patch in my life. Not long before that, I owned a successful business. I was young and prosperous. I was able to travel. And though I worked long hours, I had the freedom to work where and when I wanted. I exercised frequently. I was eating well and I felt great. I could only see blue skies ahead. Then, in a rather short period of time, it fell apart. The business failed, for reasons mostly out of my control. I lost a good deal of money. I started another business that went nowhere fast. And a few months later, I found myself with no job, few prospects, and just enough money for bills that month. A friend of mine owned a restaurant. So I went to work waiting tables. I slowly got back on my feet financially. But I was still depressed. My solace was food. I was drinking soft drinks. I was always snacking on bread. And since I was always around food, I ate everything in sight, even when I wasn't hungry. In no time at all, I gained about 30 pounds. I could hardly get out of bed in the morning. My skin started breaking out. And I became even more depressed about my situation. But I wasn't broken and I decided to make a change. I knew that if I wanted to regain anything financially and emotionally, I had to focus on my health first. Within a few short months, I was in better shape than I had been in years. I felt great. I had more energy. My skin cleared up. And feeling so much better about myself, I went on to have a great year financially. But this essay is not about my financial transformation. I want to tell you about my health transformation. There were three keys that made it work. I'm not going to tell you what I ate, how much I ate, or how I prepared my food. And I'm not going to tell you how much I exercised, or what kind of exercise I did to get back in shape. You might think those two things are the most important when it comes to losing weight and transforming your health. But they are not. Show a Younger Face to the World By repairing your skin's DNA, you can soften your skin and erase wrinkles, tighten up your sagging jaw line, make your crow's feet disappear, and banish sun and aging spots. This Nobel Prize winning secret makes it possible. Your "telomeres" determine how long your skin cells live. Telomeres are the "time keepers" attached to every strand of DNA. Each time your cells divide, your telomeres get shorter. The shorter your telomeres, the more your skin cells age… causing dry and wrinkled skin. Maintain the length of your telomeres, your skin will stay supple, radiant, and youthful. Believe it or not, there are three steps that are even more important than what you eat or how you exercise. Because without taking these three steps first, your chances of sticking to your plan diminish significantly. These three steps will make or break your fat loss and health transformation efforts.
I am going to go over these three steps in more detail. Then I would like for you to comment on this article, with your own goals and plans for the New Year. So please read to the end! Write Down Your Goals and Make a Detailed Plan As with anything you set out to do, the first step is to determine exactly what you want to accomplish. Be specific and descriptive. How much weight would you like to lose? In what amount of time? In what measurable ways would you like to improve your health? Want to give up sweets? Set a future date that you won't put a taste of sugar in your mouth until that time comes. Whatever your goals are, write them down and be specific. Also write down the reasons you intend to accomplish these goals. You have to have a "why". Maybe you want to look your best for a trip to the beach. Maybe you want to wear the same size jeans you wore in high school. Maybe you want to compete in a road race or a martial arts competition. Perhaps you want more energy to play with your kids. Or you want to live long enough to see your grandkids grow up. Whatever your reasons are… big or small… immediate or far out into the future… write those things down. Then you need to write down your plans to achieve those goals. If your nemesis is junk food, don't allow it in your house. Discard any temptation and fill your cupboards and refrigerator with healing foods. Plan and prepare your meals ahead of time. You never want to get too hungry or go too long between meals. That is when your willpower will break down. Make a plan for when you will exercise and put it on a schedule. Document and Measure Your Progress Now, you have your goals and plans in place. Next, you need to establish your starting point. If your goals involve your health, perhaps you want to improve certain blood tests. Maybe you want to lower your fasting insulin so you can get off diabetes medication. Maybe you want to get your blood pressure in a healthy range and ditch those meds too. Whatever it is, you need to set a starting point for the markers you want to improve. If your goals involve fitness and fat loss, you should take measurements of your body, bodyfat percentage and your weight. You should also take some photos of yourself. And continue to take photos every two weeks along the way. Just be sure to keep the variables the same. Stand in the same place. Wear the same clothes. Keep the lighting the same. The most accurate yardstick is your body measurements. If your goal is to transform your body, take the following measurements with a flexible tape measure:
Your body tape measurements will tell you where you are gaining or losing inches. But they won't tell you what you are gaining or losing. The goal is to gain or maintain muscle, while losing fat. And the way to tell that is by calculating your bodyfat. You can do that with a simple caliper, or you can go to a gym and have your bodyfat measured. Of course, you should weigh yourself before you begin. And you should track your progress along the way. Weigh yourself at the same time each time. But don't weigh yourself every day. There are a lot of things that can affect your weight. You don't want to get discouraged, just because you gained a few pounds of water weight. Once or twice a week on the scale is best. And don't worry if the scale is not dead accurate. Your progress is what is important. And as long as you use the same scale every time, you'll know if you're making progress. Become Accountable to Other People The third - and the most important - step is to communicate your plan and enlist the help of other people. My personal experience, along with numerous studies, proves that social support is one of the most important factors in transforming your health and losing weight successfully. In one study, performed at Brown University School of Medicine, the subjects were a group of overweight men and women. They were scheduled to attend group exercise sessions to lose weight. Each participant was encouraged to bring up to 3 support partners who would also participate. What the researchers discovered is that the number of support partners each participant had didn't matter, but the success of those partners mattered a great deal. They found that each test subject's weight loss was closely associated with the success of their partners. They also found that those with successful partners lost significantly more weight. And finally, the more often the subject attended counseling sessions, the greater their success. Another study at the famous Karolinska Institute in Sweden tracked men and women who used an Internet weight loss club. They found that the people who used the website the most also lost the most weight. Many other studies confirm the importance of social support. And it just makes sense. If you want to succeed in business, you need to hang out with successful business people. If you want to stop drinking, you need to hang out with people who don't go to bars every night. The best case scenario is to have a partner - or even better, multiple partners - that you can exercise with and share your plans and goals with. If you don't have partners with the same goals and commitment, then at least communicate your plans to those close to you. You want to tell people exactly what you are setting out to do. Be specific. Tell them what you are going to do to accomplish your goals. Also tell them what you are NOT going to do and the things you are going to avoid. Ask them to check on your progress. And ask them to hold you accountable. It would be best if these people are close to you and important to you. But we all know that sometimes these people can be the least supportive. Whether it is from jealousy or insecurity, those around us sometimes don't want us to succeed. Sad, but often true. If that is the case, then you need to seek some outside support. Hire a trainer or nutritionist, even if only for a few sessions. Research shows that being accountable to an authoritative figure also increases your chance for success. You might even dedicate a blog to publicizing your goals and tracking your progress. It doesn't cost a thing, and they are super-easy to set up. This has worked for thousands of people. There is nothing like putting your goals and promises in front of the world to motivate you and keep you on track. And who knows, you might even make some money in the process. You might also look into becoming active on an Internet forum dedicated your same goals. There are hundreds of highly active forums with thousands of members. And many of them are very specific. There are fitness and muscle-building forums. There are weight-loss forums. There are cancer-recovery forums. There are forums for moms looking to lose their baby weight. The great thing about the Internet is that it provides enough intimacy to feel accountable. And it provides enough "removal" that you're not mired in the social difficulties of "real life". The main idea is to communicate your goals and plans to a group of people and for them to hold you accountable. Social support is almost always the missing ingredient when someone fails to achieve their fitness and weight loss goals. So get help. Hang out with friends who will support you. Your chances of success will be assured. In this spirit, I would like for you to comment on this article. Whatever you would like to accomplish in 2010, let your fellow Total Health Breakthroughs subscribers know about it. How do you feel about your health and your body today? What changes are you looking to make? What are you willing to do to make those changes a reality? What is most important for you to accomplish this year? Please let us know by clicking on the comment link below. I look forward to hearing about the goals you WILL attain this coming year! Say goodbye to bags and sags! Triumph over all the annoyances of aging and thrive every day…for life! Finally - the anti-aging solution with:

Location: Directly southwest of Winterhold
While the doors to this dungeon are open from the beginning of the game to reach the area that contains the Word Wall you'll have to join the Mages College. One of the first quests sends you down into this dungeon to explore for magic items. What starts out with you just walking around, picking up stuff, turns into a pretty dangerous dungeon crawl rather quickly. You will have Tolfdir's help in some of the hardest areas so exploring this place shouldn't be too hard even for a low level character although the boss fight can provide some issues. Keep plenty of health potions on hand in either case as there is a Draugr Overlord or Draugr Deathlord looking to bash your face in when you're still on your own.
We never really figured out a good way to do the puzzle with the spinning pillars. You have to match up the side of the pillar facing you with the symbols on the walls above them to open the door. The problem is that when you spin one pillar another one, or two, will spin with it. There is very likely a good, simple order to do this but we haven't worked one out at the time of this publication.
Location: Just north of Ivarstead
Located just north of the small town of Ivarstead this dungeon is encountered rather early on if you're following the main storyline. Luckily it's also a rather easy dungeon with only one boss level encounter near the end of it. Honestly a beginner character with your housecarl should be able to clear this even if they're a mostly non-combat spec thanks to most of the enemies being easily defeated skeletons.
Location: On the mountains in the center of The Pale region of Skyrim, between Whiterun and Winterhold, south of Dawnstar and Morthal
Dragon Roost. Do not, I repeat, do not treat this like just another Word Wall. The dragon will fly away from the wall to attack you like normal but it is of the utmost importance that you do not walk towards the wall itself until the dragon is dead. In a sarcophagus near the Word Wall is one of the Dragon Priests, Krosis, and you don't want to be caught between a dragon and this guy because they will kill you in no time flat. Kill the dragon and then deal with Krosis for a much easier time.
On the bright side Krosis' mask is awesome for stealthy, light armor users. That makes up for this Shout being fairly useless even for a stealthy character so it evens out.
Location: North of Falkreath – note that this dungeon has two entrances
Technically speaking this is just one dungeon with two entrances but getting in from the southern entrance is kind of tricky and it produces a fairly different experience. The video below operates as if you entered from North Shriekwind Bastion and this is basically the simplest way to get through the dungeon. Luckily this is another pretty easy dungeon with only the fact that there are some vampires inside making it tough at all. Bring along fire weapons for all the various undead and you will be in great shape for clearing this place out in a jiffy.
Location: Not on the map, this location is accessed during the quest "The World Eater's Eyrie"
This is the next to final location in the game and can only be accessed by following the main storyline to its conclusion. It's pretty hard to miss this wall what with it being right in your path in a hallway you have to pass through and there are no enemies in said room to distract you. However do not miss this wall! Without reloading or using glitches / cheats there is no way back into Skuldafn after you've cleared it. Get it during your first visit or not at all.
Location: Southeast of Dawnstar on the other side of the mountains.
For the most part this dungeon is fairly easy to get through with only a few enemies to fight who shouldn't be too difficult if you have good equipment. Honestly the traps are more likely to wipe you out if you're not careful. But there are two tough enemies in this place, an elite and a boss Draugr. The first is slightly higher level than the average enemy you're fighting but the second is going to be a very tough fight. Should you possess the capability to summon allies, whether by Shout, spell or artifact, this is a great place to use it. This is a nice place to use any Daedric Artifacts you might have as they'll make dealing with this boss much easier.
Location: Southwest of Dawnstar and southeast of Morthal on the north side of the mountain range.
Dragon Roost. There's nothing special about this location. Kill the dragon and get the wall, easy as can be. If you're having a hard time finding your way up the mountain to this place then go into Morthal or Dawnstar and use your Shout. Simply fire a short, one word Shout up into the air repeatedly until a courier brings you a message from "a friend" that will give you this location.
Location: Southeast of Winterhold city.
This location can only be entered during the Thieve's Guild quest "Speaking with Silence" as only during this quest is the door opened. You're partnered with the Guildmaster Mercer Frey and he can basically clear this place out entirely on his own, no help needed from you. This makes getting through the dungeon absolutely a breeze even for a character with almost no combat skills.
This wall is found in a large chamber with a second floor accessed by a wooden staircase. Simply walk around the staircase to the far side of the room for this wall.

A modelling study of the formation of volatile particles in a combustor exhaust has been carried out in the frame of the PartEmis European project. A kinetic model has been used in order to investigate nucleation efficiency of the H2O-H2SO4 binary mixture in the sampling system. A value for the fraction of the fuel sulphur S(IV) converted into S(VI) has been indirectly deduced from comparisons between model results and measurements. In the present study, ranges between roughly 2.5% and 6%, depending on the combustor settings and on the value assumed for the parameter describing sulphuric acid wall losses. Soot particles hygroscopicity has also been investigated as their activation is a key parameter for contrail formation. Growth factors of monodisperse particles exposed to high relative humidity (95%) have been calculated and compared with experimental results. The modelling study confirms that the growth factor increases as the soot particle size decreases.

New BlackBerry 10 to be released in US in mid-March

A modern BlackBerry with a physical keyboard might not arrive in the U.S. until May or June, a month or two behind other parts of the world, the chief executive of the smartphone maker suggested in an interview.
Although Research in Motion Ltd. CEO Thorsten Heins said the exact release date will depend on each wireless provider, he said the physical keyboard version, the BlackBerry Q10, will likely be released eight to 10 weeks after a carrier releases a model with only a touch screen, the BlackBerry Z10. The Z10 is expected in the U.S. in mid-March, so eight to 10 weeks brings the U.S. date for the Q10 to mid-May to early June.
"We're trying to get it as close as we can,'' Heins said in an interview this week with The Associated Press.
Both models are part of RIM's attempt at a comeback after the pioneering brand lost its cachet not long after Apple's 2007 release of the iPhone, which reset expectations for what a smartphone should do.
RIM promised a new system called BlackBerry 10 to catch up, using technology it got through its 2010 purchase of QNX Software Systems. But it has taken more than two years to unveil new phones that are redesigned for the new multimedia, Internet browsing and apps experience that customers are now demanding.
RIM said last week that the Q10 should be out on some global carriers in April, but it wouldn't say then whether that schedule applied to the U.S.
In the interview, Heins said it was up to the carriers to do the necessary testing and to decide whether they can shorten the process. He said eight to 10 weeks after the Z10 launch was ``a good range'' of what to expect.
Such a delay would further complicate RIM's efforts to hang on to customers tempted by Apple's trend-setting iPhone and a range of devices running Google's Android operating system. Even as the BlackBerry has fallen behind rivals in recent years, many BlackBerry users have stayed loyal so far specifically because they prefer a physical keyboard over the touch screen found on the iPhone and most Android devices. But the temptations to switch grow with each additional delay.

This pork au poivre is a wonderful french-style dish topped with a pan sauce that is a little lighter than traditional varieties which use butter or cream.
Cooking Light JUNE 2001
Preheat oven to 425°.
Slice the pork lengthwise, cutting to, but not through, the other side. Open halves, laying pork flat. Sprinkle each side of pork with 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper. Heat oil a large ovenproof skillet coated with cooking spray. Add pork; cook for 2 minutes on each side. Place the pan in oven, and bake at 425° for 12 minutes or until meat thermometer registers 160° (slightly pink). Remove pork from pan; keep warm.
Add broth and remaining ingredients to pan; stir well with a whisk. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook until reduced to 1/2 cup (for about 3 minutes).
