"One of the best books I've heard"
This was an incredibly insightful book. I learned a lot; not just about Islam, but also about evil the religion is. It's not a book that slams the Islamic people, it's a book attacks Islam as a political ideology.
"Good book, but very one-sided."
I thought that this was a very good, because I've online dated before and was interested in getting to know more about it.
The information given in the book was very cerebral, and I did learn a lot from it. The only problem is that she seems to talk a lot about her bad dates, but a lot of her dates seem one-sided. We all make bad decisions on dates, and she doesn't really seem to talk about what she does. Granted it is hard to fully criticize yourself, I take what I read in this book with a grain of salt.
"Everything you need to know about the President"
This was probably one of the best books I've listened to on audible. There were some parts that just made my jaw drop, and some parts made me laugh really hard. Overall, it confirmed what I knew about President Obama for a long time: that President Obama is an incompetent, arrogant, megalomaniac, who will do anything to cling to power.
Michelle Obama is a self-absorbed, racist, who makes Hillary Clinton look like Princess Diana. It almost seems like Michelle has the President's testicles in her purse, because President Obama is so darned weak.
Barack Obama is simply evil, unprepared, and destroying this country. He is not only dividing this country, but he is also dividing the Democrat party - a once great party - that I used to be a loyal member of. If someone listens to this book, and still votes for Obama in November 2012, you are either two things: really dumb, or you have some kind of gain to make from another four years of this Manchurian candidate.

Anderson window repair?
I have 4 large Anderson casement windows. Was told they are 4C light or something like that. Large windows about 85" and 63" high and 4 crank out windows in each. The wood frames on the windows are warped and the cranks are shot and the frame around them has some rotted areas as the windows were never capped. There's about an 1" gap in places when you close the window. Not great in a NY winter. I don't see why the frames can't be planed down to close just like you do with a door whose wood has swelled. Had two window repair places come out and tell me no dice.
The windows are over 25 years old. Guess nothing lasts forever but they have been tearing down houses on my block after they are sold so I'm reluctant to put money into the house which is over seven figures as I don't think I will get it back in resale. Land is worth more than the structure.
Time for new windows, or is there anything I can do? Don't even mind pulling them shut with handles. Been quoted from $7,000 - $8,000 to replace. Thanks!
For the design of the house I think I to keep with 4-lite casements with the 2 outer windows pivoting open. Got the best deal from Window World. Checked them out with the BBB and they have an A+ rating for the franchise I want to use. Would be $999 each for a basic 96 X 63 4 lite window without a new frame and capping. I would put in better ones if I were keeping the house, but I'm not.

A fart that expels small ammounts of feces.
"Oh my God! I just sharted!" Exclaimed a humiliated Mark as he ran through the art room, knocking over a TV in his rush to get out the back door. A feeble attempt to save his dignity.

when you try to fart, and you shit, mostly happens when you are hungover.
"I was so hungover this morn, i sharted my pants"

Something intended to be only a fart but is accidentally accompanied by shit. These frequently occur during bouts of diarrhea. Past tense is sharted.
"Uh-oh dude I gotta run to the head real quick, I think I just sharted"

An explosion like bowel movement. When one shits and farts at the same time. Can become huge problem if done on accident. If done on toilet, shit explodes and splashes water all over your ass.
The second I sat on the crapper, shit exploded out of me like a nuclear bomb. That was the biggest shart ever!

From the Publisher"These sermons come alive in Griffin's marvelous translation." –William Barry, SJ, coauthor of The Practice of Spiritual Direction
"While Augustine was writing landmark theology, he was also preaching earthy, colloquial, witty, Christ-honoring sermons to his African congregation. Now, thanks to this lively translation, he's preaching them to us."
–Eugene Peterson, professor emeritus, Regent College, Vancouver, British Columbia; translator, The Message
"In this delightful translation, Mr. Griffin has recovered the Augustine's homilies, delivering them all the way into the contemporary idiom, where yet another generation might hear his living voice." –Scott Cairns, author of Philokalia

Joseph Holliday of the Institute for the Study of War writes, "The conflict in Syria is approaching a tipping point at which the insurgency will control more territory than the regime." The rebel forces, he reports, number 40,000 men and they control their "own de facto safe zones around Homs city, in northern Hama, and in the Idlib countryside," while the regime still holds "key urban centers in Damascus, Homs, and Idlib," which were seized in offensives in February and March. The regime has so few loyal forces at its disposal that it will be hard put to mount a major offensive in the countryside while still retaining control of the urban areas.That point is buttressed by this report from the field filed by Marine infantryman-turned-reporter Austin Tice, who has been embedded with the rebel forces. He writes:"Weeks of observation of Syrian military operations while traveling with rebel forces leave the impression that the Syrian army is unfamiliar with modern military tactics. It rarely engages rebel forces directly and appears instead to rely on poorly aimed and random fire to intimidate its opponents. Helicopters observed in northern and central portions of the country fly at an altitude that prevents their effective tactical employment".It is not clear whether this is reflective of incompetence or dual loyalties among the government forces, but whatever the case, it indicates that the Syrian military is not as formidable as it appeared while slaughtering civilians in months past.Max Boot is a leading military historian and foreign-policy analyst and The Jeane J.

Charles Codman was a landscape and marine painter from Portland, Maine. He began as a painter of signs, clock faces, fire buckets, and fire screens (of which an example is in the Fruitlands Museum in Harvard, MA). The art critic, John Neal, became aware of Codman's work and encouraged him to take up landscape painting. After turning to landscape painting, Codman gained a large, distinguished patronage.
His works include:
Landscape, signed & dated lower left, 1828, oil on canvas, 30 1/4 x 40 inches, Portland Museum of Art
View of the Notch in the White Mountains, 1830, Boston Athenaeum (1830)

Process Performance Computer for Adaptive Control SystemsPublication Year: 1968 , Page(s): 1027 - 1037
Cited by: Patents (1)| | Quick Abstract | PDF (3032 KB)
Abstract—Adaptive control of complex manufacturing processes can provide significant improvements in production rate and product quality. To maximize these advantages, the adaptive control system must be capable of making accurate measurement of process per- formance. This paper describes the implementation of a general- purpose performance computer which makes use of a combination of two techniques: trainable pattern recognition and linear regression. The description covers the system concept, the training procedures or algorithms, and the detailed design. View full abstract»
A Delay Line and Logic Circuits Utilizing Charge-Storage Subharmonic Parametric OscillatorsPublication Year: 1968 , Page(s): 1037 - 1043| | Quick Abstract | PDF (2328 KB)
Abstract—The charge-storage subharmonic parametric oscillator may be switched from one state to the other within one cycle of pump voltage. This property is used in the design and construction of a 6-element delay line. This delay line is shown to perform predictably when the elements are connected in a loop to give a self- switching arrangement. View full abstract»
Digital System Design Automation—A Method for Designing a Digital System as a Sequential Network SystemPublication Year: 1968 , Page(s): 1044 - 1061
Cited by: Papers (4)| | Quick Abstract | PDF (3696 KB)
Abstract—This paper deals with computer-aided design of digital systems and presents a formal method for designing a digital system via state tables. The steps of the design method can be summarized as follows: a) a system is described by a set of microprograms written in a "transfer language," b) the set of microprograms is translated into a set of flow tables by an algorithm, and c) the flow tables are converted into logical diagrams by synthesis procedures. The purpose of step a) is to aid the designer in describing the system; the result of step b) makes it possible to reduce the logical complexity of the system by using systematic techniques of the sequential network theory; and the result of step c) is a system of interconnected sequential networks, operating simultaneously which may include iterative asynchronous networks.

High-Speed, Interlaced WRITE and READ-Only Operation of a Plated-Wire Memory SystemPublication Year: 1968 , Page(s): 1062 - 1065
Cited by: Papers (2)| | Quick Abstract | PDF (2856 KB)
Abstract—A 1024-word by 80-digit exploratory plated-wire store using diode-matrix word selection has a cycle time of 100 ns or less for READ and 140 ns for WRITE, while the destructive READWRITE asts 150 to 200 ns. To match the fluctuation in the type of request encountered, typically 80 percent READ, and thus maximize the throughput, it is advantageous to switch memory mode in an interlaced manner at logic speed. This is done by exploiting the plated-wire properties of NDRO and fast WRITE. A charge storage diode is used for memory protection and common word current control; READ 400 mA, WRITE 900 mA.

The Basis for Implementation of Ad idive Operations in the Residue Number SystemPublication Year: 1968 , Page(s): 1066 - 1073
Cited by: Papers (8)| | Quick Abstract | PDF (1792 KB)
Abstract—A new residue number system algebra has been previously proposed by the author. The algebra has solved an essential theoretical barrier in the residue number system and has enabled one to pursue additive operations in the residue number system to their full extent, overcoming such difficulties as restrictions on the sign or magnitude of numbers in the system. In this paper, basic theorems in the algebra are introduced first, and then, based on the theorems, table look-up oriented solutions for hardware overflow checking, sign detection, and floating-point additive operations are given. The theorems expound the behavior of a quantity treated as a veiled mysterious function in the literature. To the best knowledge of the author, hardware overflow-checking schemes and floatingpoint additive operations in the residue number system have never been reported elsewhere. So far, the upper limit of the magnitude of numbers in the system ever discussed has been the one that is theory-limited, and floating-point operations in the residue number system have never been discussed.

Abstract—Maitra cascades are introduced here using two-input NAND and/or NOR. Tests for function synthesis by these kinds of cascades are introduced. The same methods can be used to design a cascade to realize a given function, when it exists. Finally, some procedutes are given for making such a cascade as short as possible. View full abstract»
Some Theoretical Properties of Multithreshold Realizable FunctionsPublication Year: 1968 , Page(s): 1081 - 1088
Cited by: Papers (1)| | Quick Abstract | PDF (1336 KB)
Abstract—In recent years, considerable attention has been focused on the problem of improving the logic implementation capability of logic elements in digital computer circuits. This paper investigates the theoretical properties of a logic element called the multithreshold threshold element. The concept of this logic element is a generalization of the concept of the single-threshold threshold element. View full abstract»
Partitions and Edge-Weighted Pair-GraphsPublication Year: 1968 , Page(s): 1089| | Quick Abstract | PDF (184 KB)

An Attempt to Design an Improved Multiplication SystemPublication Year: 1968 , Page(s): 1090| | Quick Abstract | PDF (224 KB)
Abstract—A speeded-up multiplication technique is considered wherein the two numbers to be multiplied are first examined and the one with the fewer 1's is selected as the multiplier. It is found that the speeding-up diminishes towards 0 as the word length increases. View full abstract»
Comments on "An Algorithm for Synthesis of Multiple-Output Combinational Logic"Publication Year: 1968 , Page(s): 1091 - 1092

Abstract—The principal synthesis example of Schneider and Dietmeyer's paper [1] is examined by applying a new synthesis algorithm. The minimum NOR gate realization thus obtained is used to illustrate the nonoptimality of their approach and to question their definition of delay.

--------------------- VIDEO DEBATES - Every 2nd and 4th Sunday of the month, 6 p.m. --------------------- A phenomenal debate where team Hitchens/Fry annihilated a team of a Catholic Bishop and British Member of Parliament on topic "Is Catholic Church a Good Force in the World". Virtually all originally "undecided" people went to the atheist side and a huge % of those who were "for" the motion jumped ship and voted "against" at the end. Total ownage of the theists in about 1 hour! - YES, IT IS THAT SIMPLE!
I was late because it started an hour before the normal meetup time.. not sure why.
I shouldn't have been late, but if I'd known a reason why it was earlier, I might have noticed that it was timed differently and remembered.
Thanks for the idea and the viewing.. I'll catch the rest online..
I heard some before on audio at work.
I didn't catch the psychologist's name..

New Android Malware Uses Google Play Icon To Trick Users 223
from the protect-ya-neck dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
Actually the android sandbox is quite sophisticated. Jellybean will randomize the location of an application's...
It's too bad that it was released in June 2012, and still, nobody has it [android.com]. So while I'm sure newer versions of Android are much improved, but it doesn't much matter to anyone if the horrible manufacturers won't put an ounce of effort into maintaining the devices.
Users SPREAD the app. The app itself does not spread. It's an important distinction.
My Samsung galaxy s3 (gt-i9000) received the 4.1.1 update about 3 or so months ago (from samsung). My neighbors Motorola atrix 2 or whatever received the 4.1.2 update about 2 months or so ago (He has verizon). The Motorola xoom I got my grand father also has received 4.1.1 iirc when I set it up for him after I received it from eBay about 3 weeks ago

Pork-themed festivals are plentiful in Cincinnati, but this weekend marks the first ever Queen City Sausage Festival. Friday-Sunday, head down to Newport on the Levee to fill your belly with brats, metts, coneys and more creative sausagey combinations. To ensure a great time for all, Hudepohl and Christian Moerlein will be serving up brewskies and there will be live music, games and kids activities. Go here for festival hours and more info.
Looking for a fest with a little more history behind it? Schutzenfest is "Zinzinnati's" oldest festival, celebrating all things German since 1866. Enjoy different types of authentic German music and performances at the Kolping Center Friday-Sunday. Don't miss the opening parade and the crowning of King and Queen Sunday afternoon. For directions and a full event schedule, go here.
This weekend's Cincinnati Boutique Sale brings every fashion-savvy gal's favorite independent shops together under one roof - the space formerly occupied by Anthropologie at Rookwood Commons, to be exact. For a suggested donation of $5 (benefiting the Karen Wellington Foundation for living with breast cancer), you can browse clothing, shoes and accessories from top local boutiques such as Soho, The Wardrobe, Sara Benjamin's and more. Go here for all the details.
Laughter is good for you. The act of laughing can lower blood pressure, make your body more resilient and even work muscles in your face and abs. So say goodbye to that double-chin and beer belly with the help of comedian Steve White, who performs at Funny Bone on the Levee through Sunday. You may recognize White from several Spike Lee films, '90s television gold (Martin, Hangin' with Mr. Cooper, need I go on?) or comedy clubs across America. Check out our interview with him here.
How about a little roadtrip? The Wexner Center for the Arts in Columbus is an engaging space that celebrates visual art, music, performance art, film and everything in between. Open Saturday and Sunday during the summer, the space's galleries are currently showing three sexually-charged multimedia exhibits. Read all about them here and make the trip soon - these exhibits end July 31. In addition, Wexner's Contemporary Screen series continues Friday and Saturday night. This series promises area and regional premieres, international film festival favorites and all kinds of flicks you certainly won't find at Showcase Cinemas. This weekend you can check out The Arbor, based on the life and autobiographical writings of the late British playwright Andrea Dunbar. Be sure to check out the Wexner Center Store because, well, museum gift shops are always sweet as hell. Go here for directions, hours and ticket info.
At Sunday's OTR Pool Party, you can enjoy all the fun of dumpster diving minus the empty pizza boxes and risk of hepatitis. Back in 2009, hipsters in Brooklyn gained attention by turning unused trash receptacles into little watering holes and it wasn't that gross because the dumpsters were cleaned, sealed and covered with pool liners. And although Cincinnati's always behind the times, we're finally catching on to the trend. With a $50 donation to Chris Seelbach's City Council campaign, you can get your swim on, enjoy free grilled grub and an open bar, get framed by the fabulous photoboothers at Framester and dance to tunes spun by the almost-too-sexy Diamonn Gurr. It's sure to be one of the biggest parties of the summer, so go here for all the deets and here to register and donate early so you can skip the line Sunday.
This is just a taste of all there is to do! Go here for all of our weekly recommendations.

Video: Miss Utah USA flubs answer at Miss USA pageant, takes 4th
Jeff Bottari, FR170524AP
Miss South Carolina Teen USA Caitlin Upton might finally be able to move on with her life.
The 2007 Miss Teen USA contenstant became famous after giving a bizarre answer to a question about locating the United States on a map, but now, everyone is talking about the latest pageant contestant to flub a question.
And she's our very own: Miss Utah USA 2013, Marissa Powell.
Sunday at the Miss USA pageant, Powell selected a question from a bowl held by one of the show's hosts, singer Nick Jonas. The question was asked by Real Housewives of Atlanta star NeNe Leakes.
Here is the transcript of the question and answer, as first reported by Deadspin:
Leakes: "A recent report shows that in 40 percent of American families with children, women are the primary earners, yet they continue to earn less than men. What does this say about society?"
Powell: "I think we can relate this back to education, and how we are continuing to try to strive to [long pause] figure out how to create jobs right now.
"That is the biggest problem. And I think, especially the men are um seen as the leaders of this, and so we need to try to figure out how to create education better so we can solve this problem. Thank you."
Jonas' co-host Giuliana Rancic was holding the microphone for Powell, and seemed to know she had gotten flustered, just like Mario Lopez did six years ago.
Buzzfeed reports the 21-year-old Powell was named Miss Utah USA on October 27, 2012, at the Val. A. Browning Center for the Performing Arts in Ogden.
Powell, a graduate of Skyline High School in Salt Lake City, first attended Westminster College before transferring to Brigham Young University.
According to her bio, Powell is a singer and model who has performed all over Utah, including singing the Star-Spangled Banner at a Real Salt Lake game. Additionally, Powell was a star volleyball player in high school, and was voted the Deseret News First Team All-State 5A Defensive Specialist of the Year in 2009. She is also the ambassador for Healing Hands for Haiti, a non-profit organization dedicated to bringing rehabilitation medicine to Haiti.
Powell finished as the third runner-up in the competition, with Miss Connecticut USA Erin Brady taking the title.
After Powell's response, Miss Utah became the number one trending topic on Twitter, even over Game 5 of the NBA Finals.
Michael Smith is an intern in the news section of DeseretNews.com. A 2013 graduate of the University of Utah, he will be attending Northwestern's Medill School of Journalism in the fall.

Reclaiming a hill - need suggestions
Posted this in the Landscape Design forum first, before finding this forum..
I have a hill in my backyad that's pretty steep, about 30 ft from the back of the house. Unfortunately, it's quite overgrown with weeds. It has some good trees on it. Too steep for me to really do anything grass wise. What I'm thinking of doing is getting a few more trees in there, make it a somewhat more wooded area, help cut back on the weeds. Largest factor is going to be cost, which, I really don't have funds to spend (few dollars here and there, mainly what I find on clearance). However, I do have several bushes/shrubs to propagate from, mainly Crape Myrtles and Rose of Sharons, and a newly acquired Lynnwood Forsythia. Possibly even make it wooded with doing a shaded garden. I've already started on the left side with Hostas, and also have a line of Azalea's (3 that I planted last year you can see barel at bottom of hill). The hill fasts east, and the wood fence (neighbor) is on the south side. Not looking for anything great, just something that is lower on maintainance and not costly, help cut back on the weeds.
First picture, April 2012, Panoramic of back yard/hill. Doesn't look too bad here, before all the weeds got to grow (and I weedeated it before it got out of control).
This is how the right (northern) side of hill looks now, completely overgrown. You can just make out 2 azaleas out front, along some with gladiolus. Rest is weeds/wildflowers. A shrub/bush behind it, maybe some type of juniper (no clue!) with honeysuckle on top...
An open area, the middle of the hill. I'm trying to grow 2 Crape Myrtles in the middle (current 6-8" tall)
Crape Myrtle hiding in the grass/weeds
Side shot of same overgrown area (looking North/Northwest), but looking behind the bush.
Top of hill, looking down (north/northeast). This would be above the main shrub/bush there (the supposed Juniper). There's also a rose of sharon just off-center to left I transplated this spring that's on the left side of the panoramic shot.
Top of hill, looking down on the south side, looking east. I'm thinking of planting 2 rose of sharons, on either side of a Crape Myrtle I planted (cuttling from the Crape Myrtle in Panoramic shot, not same type as 2 planted in middle, which are more mid-size)
This is where I'm focusing right now.
I've weeded out about 1/2 of it.
Hard to tell, but there's a baby azalea in there I planted this spring. Back middle in this picture
I have good luck with Daffodils and tulips in this area, as there is no shade there in the spring. I also planted some daylilies there for the summer (forget the species, but it's a purple variety). I just planted them from tubulars from Sam's club, so I expect I won't get much blooms until next year. I had a couple, but that's it. Have a columbine, some Hostas, and some Ferns, all planted this year. The plum tree is probably going to come down.
Shot behind the area in progress
I have a baby cedar tree I planted mid-way up this spring, we'll see if it survives. However, I think I'll stil need something more, as it's above that Juniper bush (cannot really see it in pic, on right side), if I'm going to create a shaded area.
I'm not necessarily looking for a whole shade effect, however, that's going to be one of the easier ways to control the weeds I think, to some degree anyway. Unfortunately, time is an issue as well. Have 3 kids under the age of 5, and I work full-time, so I get maybe 1-2 hours each Saturday to do a little work, maybe Sunday too, and that's primarily spent weeding that one area, and the rest of my garden areas. This home was a foreclosure, so I have a dozen different areas that I'm trying to clean up. I've made a lot of progress on other fronts. I figure if I'm going to be doing trees back there, can go ahead and get that started, and work on the weeds/brush once the trees are taking hold....
Do not remove any trees.
The erosion will be terrible if you do, and it takes a very long time to grow trees that are as tall as some of yours are.
Leave the trees.
You have very little time to really work on your yard.
This is what I would do.
Buy some Round Up. Very carefully, on a day that isn't windy, take a small area at a time and only spray anything that you know is a weed.
That is a very good way of eliminating the weeds for right now.
Do you like evergreen? The pic where you can see your neighbors home clearly, I would plant some Green Giant or Arborviates there, in the fall, and mulch well.
You can buy some pretty decent size trees for about 30.00 a piece, you can stagger them, they will take good there.
Have you thought about ornamental grasses at all?
You don't mulch them, and they are wonderful as far as preventing erosion and easy to care for.
It will take years to truly sculpt your hill garden.
You have a lot on your plate as far as your kids, so just do
it little by little.
It will look wonderful in the years to come but take it slow, and try your best to keep it weeded, and don't shy away from chemicals, you don't have the time to hand weed.
I would recommend using native plants, as they seed themselves and have deep tap roots. Also, I would shy away from using chemicals. There are plenty of organic alternatives that work just as well (Ecosmart weed killer, can be found at home cheapo and vinegar), and that don't harm the environment (I'm a marine biologist and these chemicals are really damaging to the environment). I've posted a pic my native plants bed (zone 4) to give you an idea.
I second the idea to leave as many trees as you can until you get other stuff established. I would also encourage you to collect bagged leaves from along the roadside in fall to use as thick mulch to prevent growth of weeds. These leaves will also break down over time and enrich your soil and decrease watering needs. If you can shred the leaves (with a lawn mower) they'll be less likely to blow around and look messy. With weeds subdued, you can take your time planting trees, shrubs, and perennials as time and money allows. As the plants you choose/add become established, then you can work on removing the undesirables using whichever method is comfortable for you.
Good luck.
1.) Tag anything that ISN'T a weed. When you are frazzled you may forget, and if anyone helps you they may not know.
2.) If there are any spots where there ISN'T anything but weeds, throw a tarp on it now...Smother the plants until you get a chance to plant things.
3.) Focus on Natives that Reseed.
4.) Now is actually a great time to plant trees and perennials, if your ground isn't frozen.
5.) Over time pines often kill things beneath them because they make the soil acid and add shade.
The erosion will avoid if you use geotextile, so i think you can remove trees around your yard.

In Cashel we saw the rock of Cashel. It has a castle on it, the castle was under renovations and it was raining. After seeing the rock we walked to the main town and went to a cafe for lunch. The food was good – just a burger but it was nice. Then we walked back to the coach and drove for about 1hr. Here i listened to my ipod until we arrived in Kilkenny.

First we looked at Puffin Island, which was chock full of birds; it was absolutely amazing. We saw gannets and puffins among other birds. There were thousands of them. It was both beautiful and scary at the same time (especially for me, given my fear of birds.) The only problem, other than my nausea, was that our camera decided not ...

HEALTH Many believe that a dog and a new baby cannot happily coexist, so therefore the dog has to go. This is not necessarily the case. A new baby does not mean you have to abandon your dog.
DOG TRAINING It's not enough to simply walk the dog through the front door and hope he will acclimate to his new surroundings; you have to teach him how to interact with the new people and items in his environment.
PET-NEWSWORTHY If you're considering adding a pet to your home in 2015, you're in very good company. As many as 71.4 million homes are expected to include a pet in 2015. According to the American Pet Product Association, pet families have increased from 56% of households in 1988 to 62% this year.
FIRST TIME OWNERS When you bring a new puppy into your home, it's a time of great excitement for everyone involved: you, your kids, your neighbors, and even the dog. Here's our guide on what to expect and how to handle the transition without losing your mind.
HEALTHAlthough it's not a topic any of us really want to think about, responsible dog parenting requires that we give some thought to what would happen to our dogs if one day we didn't come home.
FIRST TIME OWNERS Congratulations! You've decided to bring a new little four-legger into your family's home. Now comes the big decision: should you get a dog or a cat? Here are a few things to consider as you make your decision.
HEALTHDog fighting used to be a sport meant to entertain police officers and firefighters, and was advertised in police gazettes. Now that numerous laws have been passed that make dog fighting illegal, the sport has simply gone underground.
DOG HEALTH Many new puppies are adopted throughout the year, especially around Holiday time. One responsibility most first time dog owners forget to take into account is the amount of veterinary care that is necessary in keeping your puppy happy and healthy! Learn the basics of finding a vet and getting puppy vaccinated.

Median Salary by Job
5221 Cheadle Hall
Santa Barbara, CA 93106
University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB)
State School, Research University, Party School, For Sports Fans
81 %
16 %
86 %
41 %
Graduates of the UCSB are found working in a number of different fields including software as a service (SAAS) development, the marketing, advertising, and media management industry, and the software development industry. The most highly represented industry among alumni is the education industry. Those with an education from UCSB earn an average of around $61K.
Male graduates of UCSB out-earn their female counterparts significantly, earning an average of $73K versus $56K for women.
The most generous salaries among UCSB alumni are reportedly earned by Software Engineers, whose earnings come to $80K, followed by Marketing Managers (about $66K) and Mechanical Engineers (approximately $65K). On the lower end, Accountants report making $47K.
UCSB alumni do not feel the need to relocate after graduation, and about an eighth of grads find stable employment in Santa Barbara. San Jose is also a common destination for UCSB grads and offers the best pay with a median salary of about $98K. Though Los Angeles takes the cake for lowest pay among UCSB grads (the median salary is $60K there), it remains a common destination for former students. Neighboring San Francisco is another common pick among UCSB grads, along with San Diego.
UCSB grads who hold a Doctorate (PhD) can expect to fare better than most fellow alumni, earning $105K per year. A B.A. in Video & Media Studies is less advantageous in terms of earnings; alums with this degree are the lowest earners with annual pay of $38K.
Former Gauchos with Engineering Design abilities can expect to make 27 percent more than their former classmates (approximately $78K). Around a seventh of grads report using Project Management as part of their job, making it the most popular skill. Other top skills include Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Office, and Data Analysis.
When it comes to benefits, there is room for improvement — only two-fifths of alumni are paid for vacation and just one in four survey participants for sick time. The greater part of alumni receive health insurance, and a fair portion of graduates get dental coverage. A solid majority of alumni participate in a 401(k) retirement savings plan. Graduates of University of California are also recipients of a casual working environment, life insurance, a company-subsidized cell phone, and free drinks.
Median pay for University of California grads is $60K, making their salaries most similar to those of UCSB grads. The University of California-Los Angeles, the University of California-Riverside, and the University of California-Irvine are also similar to UCSB.

Chaparral man charged with 156 counts of animal cruelty
Wednesday, January 29, 2014 - 10:09pm
Chaparral, NM (KTSM) — A Chaparral, New Mexico man is facing 156 counts of animal cruelty.
Back in September authorities found 268 dogs on Felix Moriel's property, several of them dead. Twelve were reportedly on the property in different stages of decomposition and six were puppies inside plastic bags inside the freezer.
Authorities say the 44 year-old admitted he had 400 dogs at his home at one point.

I bought this for my livingroom. The colour is fabulous, and it is quite comfortable. (A little stiff when we first took it out of the box.) I love the style, and the size is very nice; it's bigger than a typical accent chair, but not as large as a big arm chair. I ended up returning it because the fabric has a very loose weave; it is like a wide/loose linen, almost like a burlap. I know my cat would end up destroying it with her claws. If I didn't have a cat, I would have kept it. I haven't found a similar product anywhere that is even close to this price point.
I ordered these chairs because I needed a big punch of color and these fill the bill! They look really nice, and was really surprised how big they are, as online they look like they would be a small tub chair! They have a modern updated look and for the price they will work perfect. They are ok comfortable just so so, but for a couple of occasional chairs they are perfect for the price. A big impact in looks without spending a fortune. Everyone who sees them comments how great they look.
Excited to receive this chair but no reviews so you never know. It is a great chair, the style and color is great. I have a few other Mid-Century styled chairs from Overstock and the quality on this one seems to be the best. I would recommend this chair, it is deep so nice to snuggle up with a book. My teenager already claimed it.
Wonderful chair, and such a gorgeous peacock blue. Originally, my hope was to find a wingback chair for my bedroom as I wanted something classic, but big enough to curl up in for reading. After perusing the other reviews, I took a chance and am ever so glad I did! It has plenty of room, is structured enough for my liking, and is just the right firmness I prefer in a reading chair. The fabric is sturdy and linen like, not that horrible microfiber that seems to be everywhere these days! You will not regret this purchase.
This is a nice chair. It sits deeper (front to back) than you would think from the picture and dimensions. Its color is much more intense than was depicted on my computer screen, which is a bonus, I think. The fabric is good, my only wish is that it was somewhat more tightly (finely) woven. Came packed well, legs were put on and assembly complete in minutes. This is a nice chair at a very reasonable price, an accent piece pop-of-color in my living room.
This chair looks great and is big. Adds a splash of color and is durable. Thinking about ordering one more.
True to color. I bought one of these and then a couple weeks later bought a second one. The first one was perfect, but the second one had much looser tufting, and one of the buttons was hanging loose. I put pillows against the back of the chair so it wasn't noticeable - not a big enough deal to worry with trying to return it.
Ordered two and they are better than I expected for the price. Only complaint is that one of the buttons was already loose...but not in a place it showed so I didn't go to the massive effort to send it back. I would have given it an excellent rating if not for this...don't think this is excusable if the item were inspected properly.
I love, LOVE, LoVe this chair. Beautiful, and just as described and pictured. Fits perfectly in a corner with bright pillows. [I have an 18x18 and a 18x13 and it looks great!] Note that the cushion can NOT be flipped over, so keep it clean! ;)
I love this chair! Buy it!

Dyna-gro MSDS
Has anyone read the MSDS for Foliage-Pro and Pro-Tekt? Do these seem safe to handle or am I making mountains out of mole hills? I'm looking to fert. my tomatoes and don't feel like "suiting-up" to do so. Just my opinion, Many thanks.
A general recommendation would be to try not to get any fertilizer on your skin, particularly the concentrate solution.
I just checked the MSDS and really they don't look so bad. "Prolonged contact with skin can cause irritation" is really a pretty mild warning.
Any chemical fertilizer, even organic based ones should probably not be handled with bare hands...gloves are always a good idea. Dyna gro is no worse than any other, and no need to "suit up" lol, just wear some gloves and wash your hands when you're done :)
It's just the usual suspects of fertilizer ingredients - what's to worry about? Farmers have been using this stuff for decades on an industrial scale, and they live longer than you do. I'd worry more about getting in and out of the shower, or getting hit by lightning on a golf course.
