Baltimore's spending panel voted 4-1 Wednesday to award $60,000 in back-pay to a city officer who had been suspended without pay while facing sexual abuse charges in Howard County.
The Board of Estimates approved the payment to Officer Charles W. Hagee, 45, of Columbia. He remains on the city's police force. Police said Wednesday he is now on a paid suspension and assigned to administrative duties.
"The charges were disposed of in his favor," said City Solicitor George Nilson. "People in that position may face other administrative charges internally. But once charges are disposed of in your favor, you are entitled to back pay."
City Council President Bernard C. "Jack" Young voted against the deal.
Hagee was suspended without pay on March 20 of 2014 after he was charged with sexual abuse and solicitation of a minor by Howard County police. Investigators accused him of communicating with a 14-year-old girl advertising prostitution services online and engaging in sexual activity on three...Read more
The passenger in the SUV that was fired on by police at the National Security Agency on Monday sustained a gunshot wound in the incident, an official confirmed Wednesday. There was still no word on the person's condition.
A spokeswoman for Fort Meade — which led the emergency medical response to the incident — said the passenger was transported to Maryland Shock Trauma Center with a gunshot wound. A firefighter on the scene Monday said the passenger had been shot in the chest.
The NSA said Monday that an SUV drove off the Baltimore-Washington Parkway and up a restricted entrance ramp, and the driver failed to obey "routine instructions for safely exiting the secure campus."
The agency said the SUV accelerated toward an NSA Police vehicle, and officers opened fire. The driver of the SUV was pronounced dead on the scene.
The FBI has identified the driver as Ricky Shawatza Hall, 27, of Baltimore. Friends say and police records show that Hall identified as transsexual and went by...Read more
A former Baltimore County police cadet was sentenced to four years in prison Wednesday for taking cash and thousands of dollars worth of oxycodone and other drugs from the department's evidence room, according to prosecutors.
Nicholas Michael Ishmael, 21, assigned to the department's evidence management unit, was arrested in June after an investigation found that he had taken more 3,000 pills of oxycodone and other drugs valued between $30,000 and $125,000, the Baltimore County State's Attorney's Office said in a statement. When he was stopped by detectives, they also found he had $40,000 cash in a drawstring backpack taken from the evidence room.
Baltimore County Circuit Court Judge Robert E. Cahill, Jr. sentenced Ishmael on Wednesday to 20 years, with all but four years suspended, the statement said. He will be on supervised probation upon release from prison.
Ishmael's attorney, Brian G. Thompson, did not immediately respond to a request for comment Wednesday. Previously, Thompson told...Read more
A man being taken to the Central Booking and Intake Center by police tried unsuccessfully to escape over a fence but was injured and caught Wednesday, a spokesman said.
The suspect escaped from an officer shortly after 10 a.m., fled down a service road toward Madison Street, scaling a fence where he injured himself and was apprehended by police, said Mark A. Vernarelli, a spokesman with the state department of public safety and correctional services.
Two correctional officers stopped him near the Madison Street sally port, he said. "Our officers reacted fast and were at the gate when the arrestee attempted to get out onto Madison Street," Vernarelli said in an email.
The suspect, who Vernarelli did not identify, was taken by ambulance to an area hospital.
Baltimore police did not identify the suspect Wednesday because he had not been formally charged, a department spokesman said.

A second lawsuit has been filed against Rams Head and the company's former president, who is accused of secretly recording women in a bathroom at a restaurant in Howard County.
Three women said they were customers who used the restrooms at Rams Head's Savage Mill location — where secret videotaping was alleged to have taken place — between January and May of 2014. The women say in the lawsuit that they "reasonably expected private restrooms, un-intruded by surreptitiously installed video surveillance equipment."
Kyle Muehlhauser, then the president of Rams Head, was charged in February in Howard County with multiple counts of visual surveillance with prurient intent and "peeping Tom" and is scheduled for a trial in Howard County District Court on April 23.
In the latest lawsuit, filed March 24, the three women are seeking class-action status, saying they and other women suffered humiliation, anxiety and distress due to the videotaping. They're seeking more than $20 million in...Read more
Jurors listened for several hours as a man prosecutors called a "murder consultant" described in sometimes-chilling detail how he and former Olympic boxing hopeful James Berry killed two men in October 2008.
But after about a day of deliberations, the jury acquitted Berry on Wednesday of all charges in the fatal shootings of Howard Grant, 18, and his cousin Justin Berry, 19.
Outside the courtroom, Grant's father asked repeatedly: "What does it take" to get a conviction?
"This is why they kill each other," Howard Grant Sr. said. "They can beat it in court."
Berry's attorneys said the state's case was based on neighborhood rumors, and they assailed the credibility of co-defendant Quinzell Covington, the "murder consultant," who pleaded guilty last month to first-degree murder and conspiracy.
Berry, 27, who was emotional at times during the trial, hugged his lawyers after the verdict was read.
Berry has been charged in six homicides since 2008. He was acquitted of one in 2010 and remains held...Read more

Father And Son Coaxed From Jungle 40 Years After Vietnam War
Originally published on Fri August 9, 2013 1:55 pm
Four decades ago, Ho Van Thanh fled the fighting in his native Vietnam, disappearing into the jungle with his infant son, Ho Van Lang. This week, father and son emerged for the first time — an enfeebled Thanh carried in a stretcher, and Lang wearing only a loincloth made of tree bark.
According to the Vietnamese newspaper Dan Tri, Ho Van Thanh, now 82, was last seen in 1973 running into the jungle, after his wife and two other children were killed by a bomb or land mine near his home.
When Thanh and Lang, 42, were finally coaxed out of the jungle in Vietnam's central Quang Ngai province on Wednesday, they had been living 20 feet up in a treehouse, stocked with arrows and other makeshift hunting implements.
The Telegraph quotes a local Vietnamese newspaper as saying the elder Ho had fallen out of the habit of speech and that his son only knows a few words of the local dialect of the Cor ethnic minority. They used a homemade ax to chop down trees and survived partly on corn they cultivated as well as fruits and cassava roots from the jungle:
"But there were poignant mementos of their previous life.
"The father kept his soldier's trousers neatly folded in a corner [of the tree house]. Beside them was the little red coat his son was thought to have been wearing when they fled."
The father and son were discovered earlier when two people from a nearby village ventured some 25 miles into the forest looking for firewood.
When he fled 40 years ago, Thanh was reportedly fighting for North Vietnam (Since he lived in Quang Ngai, which was part of South Vietnam during the war, it seems likely that Tranh fought with the communist irregulars, known as the Viet Cong). He left behind another son, 6-month-old Ho Van Tri.
Tri, now in midlife, told local media that he'd tracked down his father and brother two decades ago, apparently briefly met with them, but was unable to persuade them to return to modern society.
Tri says that his brother's health is "fine, even though he looks thin," but that his father is "very weak".
Lang "doesn't understand much of what is said to him, and he doesn't want to eat or even drink water," says Ho Ven Bien, a relative who is looking after him.
"We know he wants to escape my house to go back to the forest, so we have to keep an eye on him now," Bien says.

Since Bailey has cheer in the mornings, and early-morning seminary before that, she has to get up at 4:45 am to get ready for school. As such, she's become a master at quick and easy hairstyles, and this DIY Faux Waterfall Braid Headband is one she absolutely loves!
This hairstyle is one Bailey has been wearing a lot lately, and it literally only takes 2 minutes to create! In fact, it is so easy that even a daddy can do it! Learn how by clicking the video below…
To see your own photo recreations of this style featured in our app, feel free to tag your photos on IG with: #CGHFauxWaterfall
If you know how to create a simple 3-strand braid, you can do this! This is also a perfect hairstyle if you are growing out your bangs, as the faux braid keeps them out of your face in that in-between growing phase {with your bangs becoming the waterfall-en strands}.
At the end of the tutorial, Bailey also shares a few tricks to help keep the waterfall strands looking great!
Items Needed: Brush, rat-tail comb, water spray bottle, 1 small hair elastic, 2 small bobby pins, hairspray {if desired}.
Time Requirement: 2-3 minutes
Skill Level: Easy
Step-by-Step Instructions:
Please comment below if you loved Bailey's DIY Faux Waterfall Braid Headband hairstyle today, and feel free to leave suggestions for future tutorials.
Happy Hairstyling!
Don't forget to watch BrooklynAndBailey's video from last week where they filmed the What's in My Mouth challenge! It's hilarious! Simply click below to view…
You've likely seen a recurring style theme on me in most of our videos going back for years. I love to wear curls and waves! Viewers have been asking for these tutorials for a long time, yet we hadn't actually filmed one for my favorite curly style… until today!
This week, we are showing you how to get salon-quality Diffused Curls at home! I was inspired to do it by our participation in Suave Professionals' Style It Yourself program. Yes, this technique is my secret weapon… and has to be one of our most-requested tutorials ever!
Simply click below to see the video tutorial!
To see your own photo recreations of this style featured in our CGH App, feel free to tag your photos on IG with: #CGHDiffusedCurls
The steps to this technique are very easy. All you need to begin is damp hair, an excellent curl-defining mousse, and a hair dryer {with a diffuser attachment}.
You'll notice that my damp hair starts with a little bit of wave, I want to add a more voluminous curl without using direct heat. I've seen girls with more straight hair than I have get beautiful curl using this technique. {My daughter Kamri is a good example!}
I then add Suave Professionals Luxe Curl Mousse to my hair, making sure that I get it in the base of the hair, and then drag it down the ends.
The diffuser is essential, as it slows down the air and disperses it evenly from the dryer while its fingers gently separate the hair strands without blowing out your curl. Using this technique without good product and the diffuser {using a hair dryer only} will likely leave your hair frizzy.
It is important to scrunch the hair with your hand as you dry it, which combined with the product, is what helps lock in the curl.
Once the hair is nearly dry, I flip my head back up and set my part line. Then I finalize the curls around my face with the dryer, and there is the final look!
Sometimes it's not always about the style, but the base! You know that look that many updos have, with a beautiful curly base? You can use these curls for that, and any number of hairstyle combinations {accent braids, fishtail braids, buns, Dutch Braids, twists, French braids, pancake braids, side braids, etc}. You can now up your hair game knowing this curl technique!
Items Needed: Hair dryer, diffuser attachment, Suave Professionals Luxe Curl Mousse, hairspray {if desired}.
Time Requirement: 7-10 minutes
Skill Level: Easy
Step-by-Step Instructions:
Please leave a comment below if you would like to see more curly hairstyles, or any other hairstyle ideas for future posts that you may have!
Happy Hairstyling!
Don't forget to watch BrooklynAndBailey's video from last week where they teach us 3 Cute Lip Looks! Simply click below…
We cut Bailey's hair two months ago, the very same morning she had her wisdom teeth removed. It has been a long time since she had short hair, so she has had fun experimenting on ways to style her hair using braids and hairstyle accents.
Bailey told me earlier this week, "Mom, I've got you covered on this week's tutorial, go ahead and take the weekend off." I about died! She must have read my mind because I was juggling so much between the kids schedules and work, that I felt like I was drowning! Thank you, Bailey, you did a fantastic job! I think I can retire from this blog now!
She showed me her hair, and I loved it! Since Bailey's hair is now short, she opted to begin with a base of curls to add some volume. We filmed a tutorial for these curls shortly after we started this blog WAY back in October 2009, and you can find it by clicking here… Flat Iron Curls.
To see your own photo recreations of this style featured in our CGH App, feel free to tag your photos on IG with: #CGH3KnotAccents
These knot accents are super easy to create, using a simple knot technique that anyone can do. They are also super easy to remove, as well.
When you are bobby pinning, be sure to hook the back part of the strand of hair first, and then slide the bobby pin up underneath of the knot towards the forehead. This will secure the knots in place perfectly.
You know how those simple braided bangs that were all the rage a few years ago, and only take 2 minutes to do in the mornings? This knotted accent is the same, perfectly cute and quick to do! That is what we are all looking for, right?
Items Needed: Brush, rat-tail comb, spray bottle, 3 small bobby pins, hairspray {if desired}.
Time Requirement: 2 minutes
Skill Level: Easy
Step-by-Step Instructions:
What do you think of this Triple Knot Accent tutorial? Please leave your comments below, we'd love to hear from you! We try to answer back everyone we can.
Happy Hairstyling!
Now that Valentine's Day is quickly approaching, BrooklynAndBailey want to share with you a super cute Pinterest-inspired heart collage, so be sure to click the video below!
This week's tutorial uses a Lace Braid, only instead of adding hair only into the top, as we've shown you in several tutorials, you only add hair into the bottom!
The effect that this braid gives you is a "faux waterfall braid" look, only no hair actually falls through the braid. I've been creating Lace Braids in hair for nearly 10 years now, and never thought to pull hair in only from the bottom side!
To see your own photo recreations featured in our CGH app, feel free to tag your own photos of this hairstyle on IG with: #CGHUpwardLaceBraid
I think this braid looks the best brought back into a tieback, however you can continue this braid around the back of the head and secured just above the other ear, covering the end with hair from that side.
This braid technique works on curly hair, wavy hair, straight hair, wet hair, dry hair, Day 2 hair, etc. Really, you can use it to accent pretty much any style combination!
Items Needed: Brush, rat-tail comb, spray bottle, 1 small hair elastic, hairspray and accessory {if desired}.
Time Requirement: 3-5 minutes
Skill Level: Medium
Step-by-Step Instructions:
At the end of this video, we share with you something that we felt honored to be a part of. We were asked by the Radiant Foundation, an inter-faith Christian group, to take part in what would become the largest Live Nativity ever held {certified by the Guinness Book of World Records}.

Sony Pictures' remake of Annie is set to release in US theaters on Dec 19th! I love how the movie is given a modern and updated take on the classic film, with music that is just as catchy as the first!
Annie has always been a family favorite in our home, and I absolutely LOVE the character of Miss Hannigan in the original, played by Carol Burnett! Her song "Little Girls" is so symbolic of how we've felt for years in our home, with 5 little girls running around!
Some women are dripping with diamonds,
Some women are dripping with pearls,
Lucky me! Lucky me!
Look at what I'm dripping with… LITTLE GIRLS!
Now that we have adopted Daxton & Paisley, the movie Annie means even that much more to us! Adoption has been such blessing to us in our home. We are happy that in the new movie and soundtrack, the've removed the references to "orphans" in favor of "foster kids".
In this remake, the very first time we saw the trailer, I noticed Cameron Diaz {who reprises the role of Miss Hannigan} wears some amazing braided hairstyles! This Double Frenchbacks hairstyle is one that we see the most in the trailer, and is what we will be showing you how to create today.
To see your own photo recreations featured in our CGH App, feel free to tag your own photos of this hairstyle on IG with: #CGHDblFrenchbacks
We've shown you a tutorial for a Single Frenchback on Rylan from way back in 2012. This double version uses smaller sections, and a much tighter stitching, which gives an amazingly-beautiful accent to either straight or curly hair!
Items Needed: Brush, rat-tail comb, spray bottle, 2 alligator clips, 1 small hair elastic, 1 barrette or 3 small bobby pins, hairspray {if desired}.
Time Requirement: 5 minutes
Skill Level: Easy DIY

They also included lovely samples for wedding invitations that we will definitely look in to.

Scheduling the premiere of "Boardwalk Empire" Sept. 19, the night before the fall season makes its official start on the broadcast networks, shows that HBO is taking the same no-holds-barred approach as its "Boardwalk" characters. The Atlantic City bet is no longshot: Steve Buscemi shines as a New Jersey politician cashing in on Prohibition, and he's only one of a host of compelling characters. With more original programming produced on cable in general, there was bound to be increased fall cable encroachment. Here are some other premieres to track: "Terriers" (FX, Aleady preemed) Before Shawn Ryan takes Fox viewers on a midseason "Ride-Along," he is unleashing this San Diego-based series about a couple of seedy private detectives (Donal Logue, Michael Raymond-James). "The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret" (IFC, Oct. 1) A guest appearance by fellow "Running Wilde" star Will Arnett helps David Cross kick off this Blighty-set half-hour. "Luther" (BBC America, Oct. 17) Idris Elba ("The Wire") stars as a volatile British detective who puts his job in danger after almost killing a child murderer. Not only has his wife left him for another man, Luther has a sexy killer keeping tabs on him. "The Walking Dead" (AMC, Oct. 31) The zombie apocalypse is here, and a hearty group of survivors led by cop Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) tries to stay in the land of the living. "Great Migrations" (Nat Geo, Nov. 7) This high-def series travels the globe, giving viewers an unprecedented peek into the world of animals staying on the move to survive. "Conan O'Brien" (TBS, Nov. 8) After nearly two decades at NBC, Coco kicks it cable-style beginning this fall. "Sarah Palin's Alaska" (TLC, Nov. 14) Mark Burnett teams up with the buzzworthy Palin for an exploration of her home state.

Color imaging projection apparatus for projecting a pair of laterally spaced, collimated, colored light beams onto the iris portion of an individual's eyes while viewing him/herself in a two-way mirror. A housing is provided wherein is located a light source, a color wheel, a pair of laterally spaced, optical collimating rods, and a front-surfaced mirror. Light from the light source passes through a selected color filter of the color wheel, through the optical collimating rods which transmit two discreet, colored beams of light onto the front-surfaced mirror which, in turn, directs the beams of colored light through the two-way mirror to the individual located on the opposite side thereof. The individual positions him/herself with the colored light beams impinging the iris portion of their eyes as the individual views him/herself in the two-way mirror. The invention is useful in marketing colored contact lenses in that it enables an individual to visualize him/herself with different colored eyes without the need for application of trial colored lenses onto the individual's eyes.
1. Apparatus for projecting colored light onto the iris portions of an individual's eyes comprising:
a) a light source;
b) a two-way mirror having first and second surfaces;
c) at least one color filter positioned between said light source and said two-way mirror; and
d) optical collimating means for collimating and directing at least one discreet light beam, as emitted by said light source and colored by said at least one color filter, through said two-way mirror from said first to said second surface thereof whereby an individual viewing him/herself in said second surface of said two-way mirror is able position him/herself with said at least one collimated, colored light beam striking their iris.
2. The apparatus of claim 1, and further comprising a front-surfaced mirror positioned for directing said at least one light beam from said collimating means to said two-way mirror.
3. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein said optical collimating means comprises a transparent optical rod.
4. The apparatus of claim 3, and further comprising a first and second transparent optical rods arranged in laterally spaced relation to one another, said first and second transparent optical rods being operable to collimate and emit a first and second, colored light beams from said light source to and through said two-way mirror.
5. The apparatus of claim 4, and further comprising means for adjusting the lateral distance between said first and second transparent optical rods.
6. The apparatus of claim 5, wherein said lateral adjusting means comprises a slide block upon which one of said first and second transparent optical rods is mounted.
7. The apparatus of claim 6, and further comprising a mounting surface upon which said first and second transparent optical rods are positioned, said lateral adjusting means further including an elongated groove wherein said sliding block engages for selective movement towards and away from the other of said one of said first and second transparent optical rods.
8. The apparatus of claim 1, and further comprising a plurality of different colored color filters, and means for selectively positioning any one of said plurality of color filters between said light source and said optical collimating means.
9. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein said selective positioning means comprises a rotatable wheel upon which said plurality of color filters are placed in annularly spaced relation thereabout.
10. The apparatus of claim 9, and further comprising means for selectively, automatically rotating said wheel.
11. The apparatus of claim 9 wherein said plurality of color filters are in pairs of colors with the two color filters of a said pair of colors being located diametrically opposite one another on said wheel.
12. A method of applying a color to an iris of an individual, said method comprising the steps of:
a) providing a light source;
b) providing a color filter;
c) providing collimating means for directing a beam of light from said light source, through said color filter, and onto said iris, wherein said color filter is positioned between said light source and said collimating means; and
d) providing a two-way mirror having first and second, opposite surfaces through which said light beam is directed to impinge upon the iris of an individual viewing him/herself in the surface of said two-way mirror located opposite said collimating means.
13. The method of claim 12, and further comprising a plurality of different colored color filters, and means for selectively positioning any one of said plurality of color filters in the path of said beam of light.
The present invention relates to image projection apparatus and, more particularly, to image projection apparatus which includes a two-way mirror and means for selectively projecting one of a plurality of colors through the mirror and onto the eyes of a person viewing him/herself in the mirror. The invention has utility in that the color projected through the mirror may be focused onto just the iris portions of the person's eyes so that the person may see what they look like with an eye color different from their natural eye color. The invention is thus especially useful in the colored contact lens business.
Colored contact lenses (of both prescription and non-prescription types) which alter the natural color of a person's eyes have seen increasing popularity in recent years. Since customers understandably want to see what they look like with different colored eyes prior to purchasing these types of lenses, clinicians heretofore needed to carry try-on sets of such lenses for their customers to place on their eyes and make their selection amongst the different colored lenses available. Due to sanitary and regulatory concerns, the try-on sets are disposed of immediately following a single customer's try-on of the lenses. Since a single customer can go through potentially the full array of colored try-on lenses available at a single visit, the cost of providing try-on lenses to all customers can be considerable.
There thus exists a need for a relatively inexpensive, easy and quick method by which a colored contact lens customer can realistically visualize him/herself with different colored eyes as an aid to the colored lens selection process.
The present invention eliminates the need for try-on lenses by providing an apparatus and method for projecting a selected color directly onto the iris of a customer's eyes while the customer is viewing him/herself in a two-way mirror. More particularly, a projection apparatus is provided which includes a light source and a color wheel having a plurality of colors representing the full choice of colors in which colored contact lenses are offered for sale. The projection apparatus further includes a pair of laterally spaced optical collimating rods with the color wheel being positioned between the light source and the rods. The rods are positioned to direct two spaced collimated beams of colored light at a first surface of the mirror whereby a customer viewing him/herself in the opposite surface of the mirror may position him/herself with the colored beams impinging directly onto the iris of each of their eyes.
The effect of the two-way mirror (also known in the art as a 50% mirror) is such that the customer sees only him/herself with the color of their irises changed to the color transmitted through the mirror by the eye rods from the opposite side thereof. Color wheel moving means are provided for the customer to select the desired color for projection onto their eyes. Optical rod moving means are provided for adjusting the IPD (Inter-Pupilary Distance) to closely approximate the true IPD of a particular customer's eyes. As such, a customer may quickly select a desired color by moving the color wheel, make the necessary IPD adjustment to the optical rods, and position him/herself in front of the mirror such that the color beams transmitted through the mirror impinge directly onto their irises. Once the IPD is adjusted, the customer may quickly and easily switch between all the colors of the color wheel. The color beams transmitted through the mirror merge with their own natural iris color which closely approximates the color the customer's eyes would be if they were actually wearing lenses of the same color as transmitted by the color wheel and optical rods.
FIG. 1 is a front elevational view of the apparatus of the invention with selected portions thereof broken away to reveal internal components thereof;
FIG. 2 is a side elevational view thereof with selected portions thereof shown in cross-section;
FIGS. 3 and 4 are top plan views of the optical rods and IPD adjustment means therefor;
FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the movable optical rod shown removed from the sliding block mounting for clarity; and
FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view of the optical rod and sliding block.
Referring now to the drawing, there is seen in FIGS. 1 and 2 a color imaging projection apparatus designated generally by the reference numeral 10. Projection apparatus 10 generally comprises a box-like housing structure having a base portion 12 and upper-structure 14 sharing a common rear wall 16 and opposite side walls 18 and 20. A two-way mirror 24 forms a front wall of the upper-structure 14 of apparatus 10, with mirror 24 being set at an angle with respect to rear wall 16 and a top housing wall 22 so that a customer positioned in front of apparatus 10 may easily view him/herself in mirror 24.
As mentioned above, mirror 24 is a two-way mirror which reflects only 50% of surrounding artificial and ambient light rays while permitting the remaining 50% of the surrounding light rays to pass therethrough. As such, mirror 24 may transmit light rays therethrough from one side thereof to the other, while remaining visually indistinguishable from a 100% reflective mirror. It is assumed the area surrounding the exterior of apparatus 10 where customers are located is relatively brightly lit, while the light source 26 positioned interiorly of apparatus 10 is set at a predetermined intensity level which is lower than the exterior light intensity.
Apparatus 10 is operable to project a preselected color onto just the iris portions 28 of a customer's eyes 30, with the customer being positioned in front of apparatus 10 while viewing him/herself in the outwardly facing surface 24' of mirror 24. More particularly, a color wheel 32 is rotatably mounted upon a motor-driven shaft 33 in a substantially horizontal plane within base portion 12, and includes a plurality of individual color filters 34 which cover a respective plurality of apertures 36 arranged in annularly spaced relation thereabout. A light source is provided within base 12 which preferably comprises a pair of laterally spaced lamps 26 positioned adjacent bottom wall 38 of base 12 below color wheel 32. The light bulbs 40 of lamps 26 are directed to impinge light emanating therefrom upon the bottom surface 32' of color wheel 32 such that a portion of the light emitted by lamps 26 passes through the color filters 34 positioned vertically thereover.
A pair of optical collimating rods 42 and 42' are provided directly vertically above lamps 26 with color wheel 32 positioned therebetween such that any two diametrically opposite color filters 34 on wheel 32 may be positioned along the vertical axes X1 and X2 along which light beams 44 and 46 travel. As seen best in FIG. 2, a 100% (fully reflective), front-surface mirror 48 is positioned between the rear and top walls 16 and 22 of upper-structure 14 at an acute angle "a" with respect to a support surface 50 dividing the upper-structure 14 from the base portion 12. The 100% mirror 48 is provided to reflect light beams 44 and 46 passing through rods 42 and 42' onto two-way mirror 24 as seen best in FIG. 2. The term "front-surface" for mirror 48 means the reflective coating is on the front surface of the mirror (facing two-way mirror 24) which prevents distorting "ghost" images from being reflected thereby.
As previously mentioned, the spacing between the optical rods 42 and 42' and, hence, the color beams 44' and 46' as reflected by front-surface mirror 48, may be adjusted to closely approximate the true IPD of the customer. In this regard, attention is directed to FIGS. 3-5 which show one of the rods 42 as being fixed while the other rod 42' is movable with respect thereto. More particularly, both rods 42 and 42' are supported within apparatus 10 by horizontally extending support surface 50 which lies in a plane substantially spaced and parallel to bottom wall 38. Fixed rod 42 extends through and is frictionally secured in a hole 52 formed in support surface 50 and which is of the same circumference outline as rod 42. Movable rod 42', however, extends through and is frictionally secured in a hole 54 formed in a dovetailed sliding block 56 which is longitudinally slidable within a dovetailed groove 58 formed in support surface 50 such that rod 46' is movable laterally of rod 42. An elongated opening 60 formed in groove 58 permits light beam 46 to pass through support surface 50 which proceeds through hole 54 and rod 42' regardless of the location of block 56 in groove 58. A stop 62 is provided to limit the distance block 56 may be moved toward rod 42, with this distance being the minimum IPD any one customer would be expected to have (e.g, 50 mm). The maximum distance between rods 42 and 42' is limited on the opposite side by side wall 22, with the total IPD adjustable distance being preferably about 25 mm.
As seen best in the plan views of FIGS. 3 and 4, eye rods 42 and 42' are of elliptical outline about their circumference. This is so that the light beams 44' and 46' collimated and emitted thereby will closely match the shape of a customer's irises 28 when their eye lids are in a relaxed yet open state as seen in FIG. 1. As such, the colored light beams 44' and 46' striking their irises 28 will act to color only that portion of their eyes thereby closely approximating the visual effect a colored contact lens would create if it were placed directly on the eye. Also, it may be desired to black out the corresponding pupil region of each colored beam 44' and 46' by applying an opaque covering 64 and 66 of relatively small diameter onto the tips of rods 42 and 42', respectively.

I adore my bkr bottle. It is purple. It is lightweight. And it is the perfect size to go anywhere with me -- although it has been in residence at my desk for the past month, because (let's be honest) the office is where I spend most my time. But I carry it to meetings and I stay hydrated and happy. And ... purple. :) :)5
Love this bottle- it's minimalist and cute. And glass truly does make your water just taste better. You can leave water overnight and not worry about it tasting disgusting the next day. The silicon outer is comfortable to hold, and covers the bottom so a drop wouldn't be devastating. The light green color is a perfect minty-sage. The lid is very comfortable to hold. Get this water bottle!5
I can't say enough awesome things about my BKR bottles. They are the perfect size, they come in great colors, and they're glass, so I'm not getting cancer every time I fill my water bottle up. You can put essential oils in your water without compromising the quality of your bottle, and the opening is the perfect size not to splash on yourself. I understand that it's not awesome that the lid isn't attached to the bottle, but because of the size of the mouth, the bottle doesn't spill easily if you're holding it. Also, the company sells perfectly sized brushes so you can clean the inside of your bottle, or if you use it exclusively for water, you don't have to be so worried about weird stuff getting inside. Everybody should drink water out of a reusable bottle, and that bottle should definitely be a BKR.5
This bottle is pretty and the glass option is nice, BUT it would be helpful if the lid was able to screw off and had a clip to keep it attached to the bottle so that you don't have 2 separate pieces--where am I gonna put that lid while I'm drinking and riding a spin bike? Also, the silicon sleeve looks good, but doesn't really do much. My bottle broke the first time it was dropped, on a dirt trail from about waist height.1

Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
31 Mar 2011 17:27 GMT | Politics, Middle East, Egypt, Syria, Tunisia
Facing a massive protest movement demanding reform, Syria's president has set up committees to look into the deaths of civilians during nearly two weeks of unrest and replacing decades-old emergency laws.
Thursday's move appears to be a carefully designed attempt by President Bashar al-Assad to show he will not be pressured to implement reform, instead, he will make changes at his own pace.
The state-run Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) reported on Thursday that investigative committees have been set up to look into possible causes in the deaths of protesters, including the 1962 census in east Syria, which resulted in many Kurds being denied nationality.
On Wednesday, Assad defied expectations that he would announce sweeping changes, instead blaming two weeks of popular revolt on a foreign conspiracy during his first public address since the protests began.
It was not immediately clear whether Thursday's overtures would succeed in pacifying a growing protest movement in one of regions most autocratic regimes.Al Jazeera's Rula Amin, reporting from Damascus, says the "promise of investigation", a day after Assad failed to announce any reforms during his widely anticipated speech, proves that the Syrian government "is going to move at its own pace with regard to change".
'Martyrs Day'
Activists have called for massive demonstrations across Syrian provinces on Friday, dubbing it "Martyrs Day''.
The day could prove to be a turning point in the country's future.
Syrian TV said the ruling Baath Party's regional command formed a committee made up of legal experts to study legislation that would "guarantee the country's security and dignity of Syrians and combat terrorism''.
"This would pave the way for lifting the state of emergency laws,'' it said. The widely despised, decades-old emergency laws give the regime a free hand to arrest people without charge.
The state-run news agency said the committee would complete its study by April 25.
Syrian TV also said Assad has set up a judicial committee tasked with urgently investigating the circumstances that led to the death of Syrian civilians and security forces in the southern city of Daraa and port city of Latakia.
Assad dismissed his 32-member cabinet on Tuesday in a move designed to mollify the anti-government protesters, but the overture was largely symbolic.
Assad holds the lion's share of power in the authoritarian regime, and there are no real opposition figures or alternatives to the current leadership.
The protests were sparked off by the arrest of several teenagers who wrote anti-government graffiti on walls in the southern city of Daraa.
They spread to other parts of the country last week, and human rights groups say more than 60 people have been killed since March 18 as security forces cracked down on the demonstrations.'Protesters arrested'An anti-government protester in Daraa said on Thursday that security forces arrested up to 17 people in the city overnight.
Al Jazeera's Cal Perry reports on the deadly anti-government protests in southern Daraa
He said a sit-in by a few hundred protesters near al-Omari mosque, the epicentre of protests, ended on Thursday.
However, he said protesters were regrouping for more demonstrations in Daraa and nearby areas on Friday. He spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisals.
In Assad's speech before parliament on Wednesday, his first speech since the protests began, he said Syria is being subjected to a "major conspiracy''.
He made only a passing reference to the protesters' calls for change, saying he was in favour of reform, but acknowledged there have been delays.
"The question is what reforms do we need,'' he said, without offering any specifics.
Social networking sites immediately responded with activists calling on Syrians to take to the streets.Sectarian tensionsWithin hours of Assad's speech, residents of the Mediterranean port city of Latakia said troops opened fire during a protest by about 100 people, although it was not immediately clear whether they were firing in the air or at the protesters. The residents asked that their names not be published for fear of reprisals.
Latakia, which has a potentially volatile mix of different religious groups, already has become a flashpoint for violence that could take on a dangerous sectarian tone in the coming days and weeks.
The anti-government protests and ensuing violence have brought Syria's sectarian tensions into the open for the first time in decades, a taboo topic because Syria has a Sunni majority ruled by minority Alawites, a branch of Shia Islam.
Assad has placed his fellow Alawites into most positions of power in Syria. However, he also has used increased economic freedom and prosperity to win the allegiance of the prosperous Sunni Muslim merchant classes, while punishing dissenters with arrest, imprisonment and physical abuse.
Assad, who inherited power 11 years ago from his father, appears to be following the same strategy of other autocratic leaders who attempt to quell uprisings by offering minor concessions coupled with brutal crackdowns.
The formula failed in Tunisia and Egypt, where citizens accepted nothing less than the ouster of the regime.

I have a method - getSomethingAmount() in some class (class A) I want to test. This getSomethingAmount() method logic depends on Set bSet, which is passed in constructor on class A initialization. For example if Set bSet contains of 2 objects with Status.OK, when getSomethingAmount() must return 2. How can I correctly verify this condition with Mockito ?
Now I stub 2 B class type objects, put them into bSet and then assert getSomethingAmount() method result with JUnit assertion - it works, but it doesn't looks to me like "true" Mockito way.

The Homeland Security Department is distributing new guidance on how it will apply consistent security standards for the sharing of classified threat information with state, local and private sector partners.
The 88-page document describes DHS' role in setting and overseeing standards for secure access, secure communications and secure storage and handling of classified documents. The guidance "also maintains consistency with existing policies and standards promulgated through statutes, executive orders, regulations, and other directives," according to a news release.
Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano released an implementing directive on March 9 that she said will strengthen cross-agency sharing by "instilling uniformity and consistency" in the handling of top secret federal information about possible threats. The implementing directive was developed in conjunction wih the State Department, Central Intelligence Agency, Justice Department, Defense Department, Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence's information security oversight office, DHS said in the news release.
Napolitano's order seeks to implement the president's executive order of August 2010 to promote consistent standards for federal information-sharing of classified information with state, local and tribal governments and private sector entities.
According to the DHS directive, the department is responsible for overall program management and oversight; accreditation, monitoring and periodic inspection of facilities; processing of security clearance applications sponsored by DHS or, if requested, of other agencies on a reimbursable basis; and developing training for entities handling classified documents, among other responsibilities.

How PFSA Supports Mandated Reporters
Pennsylvania Family Support Alliance is the recognized leader in Pennsylvania for mandated reporter training; we train thousands of mandated reporters each year. PFSA has been supporting mandated reporters for more than 20 years. We developed the first state-approved curriculum to train mandated reporters in how to recognize and report child abuse; we also have developed training on child neglect and how to respond if a child discloses abuse. Our training is conducted by experts in the field of child welfare across Pennsylvania, many of whom have decades of experience in responding to reports of child abuse, investigating reports and providing services to families. Find out more about our expert trainers here. Each mandated reporter training session provides supporting information in the form of workbooks, reference documents and strategies for preventing and addressing child abuse. Click here to find out about our training opportunities.
We also provide information to mandated reporters on recent changes to the Child Protective Services Law (CPSL), the problem of child abuse and neglect in general and links to helpful research and statistical information. You can find this information by clicking here.
Understanding Mandated Reporting
Mandated reporters are people who are required by law to report suspected child abuse. They make over 75% of the calls to ChildLine, the state's 24-hour hotline to report child abuse. They are often the only link between a child and safety from abuse. It is vitally important that mandated reporters understand how to recognize child abuse and how to make reports that are timely, complete and accurate.
Who Are Mandated Reporters?
Mandated reporters generally are people who come into contact with children as a part of their employment, practice of their profession and, sometimes, as volunteers in child-serving programs. The Child Protective Services Law (CPSL) was amended in 2013 and in 2014, including significant changes to the list of people who are mandated to report suspected child abuse. Effective December 31, 2014, these people are considered mandated reporters under Pennsylvania Law:
School employee (someone who is employed by the school or who provides a program, activity or service sponsored by a school). This includes youth camp/program, a recreational camp or program; sports or athletic program, outreach program, enrichment program and a troop, club or similar organization;
Anyone licensed or certified under the Department of State to practice in any health-related field;
A medical examiner, coroner or funeral director;
An employee of a healthcare facility or provider licensed by the Department of Health who is engaged in the admission, examination, care or treatment of individuals;
An employee of a child care service who has direct contact with children in the course of employment;
Clergyman, priest, rabbi, minister, Christian science practitioner, religious healer or spiritual leader of any regularly established church or other religious organization;
An individual paid or unpaid who, on the basis of the individual's role as an integral part of a regularly scheduled program, activity or service, accepts responsibility for a child;
An employee of a social services agency who has direct contact with children in the course of employment;
A peace officer or law enforcement official including the Attorney General, a district attorney, a PA State Police officer and a municipal police officer;
An emergency medical services provider certified by the Department of Health;
An employee of a public library who has direct contact with children in the course of employment;
An individual supervised or managed by a person listed above who has direct contact with children in the course of employment;
An independent contractor;
An attorney affiliated with an agency, institution, organization or other entity, including a school or regularly established religious organization that is responsible for the care, supervision, guidance or control of children;
A foster parent.
Anyone can and should report suspected child abuse; mandated reporters must report suspected abuse.

The Gibson Les Paul Studio is an electric guitar made by the Gibson Guitar Corporation; it is a stripped-down version of the traditional model. The Studio was first released in 1983 and is still in production as of 2014.
- 1 Features and specifications
- 2 Models and variations
- 3 References
Features and specifications[edit]
The Les Paul Studio was designed to attract guitar players who desired the full Les Paul performance, but without the cosmetic frills of the traditional model. This allowed the guitar to be produced and sold at a reduced price. At the time (the early 1980s), the cheapest Les Paul model sold for around $1000, and a variety of means were employed to make a more affordable model, by cutting such cosmetic features such as binding on the body and neck as well as ornate inlays. Initially made of alder, Gibson moved back to the usual maple/mahogany combination after the alder body proved to be prone to lacquer problems. A thinner body (by one-eight of an inch) compared to the original Les Paul saved weight and production costs.[1]
The Les Paul Studio features the same electronics as the Custom model. This includes two pickups (one at the bridge position and another at the neck), a volume control unit for each pickup, a tone control unit for each pickup, and a three-way selector switch. A standard 1/4-inch guitar cable jack is located at the bottom rim of the instrument.
The pickups currently installed in this model are the Gibson 490R Alnico magnet humbucker in the neck position and the Gibson 498T Alnico magnet humbucker in the bridge position. The Studio Lite version of the Les Paul was equipped with ceramic magnet humbuckers (496R/500T).
From 2009 to 2012, the "faded" model Studios (these had a slightly faded stain finish, with a thinner "satin" nitrocellulose finish) had BurstBucker Pro pickups installed, similar to the Les Paul Standard.
Models and variations[edit]
1982-1985 models[edit]
All models made from 1982 until 1984, with the exception of Studio Custom and Studio Standard, featured bodies with a carved alder top and set maple necks.
Vintage Mahogany/Studio Faded/LPJ[edit]
The Vintage Mahogany model has a carved mahogany body, top and neck, a rosewood fretboard and Alnico V BurstBucker Pro humbucker pickups, the same humbuckers used in the Les Paul Standard model. The model is available in worn brown and worn cherry finishes, featuring a "satin" nitrocellulose finish. It has garnered a 9.5 rating out of 10 at www.ultimate-guitar.com and a 9.4 rating out of 10 at Gibson's website product page.
In 2009, the Vintage Mahogany was renamed the Les Paul Studio Faded. These models (adding worn blue and worn ebony as color choices, as well as "satin" fireburst and yellow) featured the carved maple top of other Les Paul models.
For the 2013 model year, the Studio Faded was replaced with the "LPJ" model. These models feature a maple neck as opposed to mahogany, rosewood fretboard, and 490R/498T pickups, with black covers and no height adjustment screws. The LPJ model was continued for the 2014 model year, with open coil "'61 Zebra" humbuckers and an optional "Min-ETune" system (known as an "LPM" model). For 2015, the LPM (as all 2015 models incorporate the automatic tuning system, the "LPJ" moniker has been dropped) model is the least expensive full-size, carved-top Les Paul model offered by Gibson, and the "satin" finish of earlier years has been replaced by a "full gloss" finish.
During 2000-2002, Gibson released a series of six guitars dubbed "Gothic" models. Guitars other than the Les Paul Studio in this series were the Gibson SG, Flying V, X-plorer and Nikki Sixx Blackbird Bass.
The "Voodoo" series followed which included an SG as well as Les Paul Studio. The series was discontinued in 2005.
SmartWood series[edit]
The SmartWood series consists chronologically of three models; the Exotic, the Studio and the Swamp Ash models. The SmartWood series is certified environmentally "responsible" by the Rainforest Alliance via their SmartWood program. Gibson is independently audited on an annual basis by the Rainforest Alliance to ensure that only FSC-certified wood is used in the construction of Gibson's SmartWood line of instruments.[citation needed]
SmartWood Exotic[edit]
The SmartWood Exotic line (1996-2002), which was composed of six models. The SmartWood line featured tops made from different woods: Curupay has a deep chocolate-walnut richness; Peroba recalls the orangey hue of the old pine ceiling beam; Banara has a golden, banana-like glow; Ambay Guasu boasts the even lightness of maple; Taperyva Guasu is reminiscent of a sun-bleached rosewood, and Chancharana is a deep, warm-brown russet. The fretboards are all made from "Curupay" harvested from forests certified in accordance with the rules of the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC). The mahogany used in the construction of this model is from similarly certified forests. The SmartWood Exotic had a thinner, belly contoured, body than the Studio (somewat similar to that of the Les Paul Custom Lite), and had "smart wood" written on the truss rod cover.[2]
Studio SmartWood[edit]
The Studio SmartWood (LPEXMUGH1) was constructed from wood certified by the Rainforest Alliance. While the back and the neck are made from the usual mahogany, the carved top is made from Muiricatiara, along with a Preciosa rosewood fingerboard.[3] It was in production from December 2002 until 2008 and had a standard body, no pick-guard, gold hardware, dot-type fret markers, mother of pearl Gibson headstock logo, and a unique metallic green-leaf within the truss rod cover.[4]
Studio Swamp Ash[edit]
|Gibson Les Paul Studio Swamp Ash
|Gibson USA
|2003 — 2011
|Body type
|Neck joint
|Swamp Ash
|Ebony or Rosewood
|Dual Humbucking
|Colors available
|Natural Satin
The Studio Swamp Ash (LPSANSCH1) was manufactured between 2003 and 2011.[5] Built in Nashville, Tennessee, its body is made of a carved swamp ash top over a multi-piece swamp ash back. The neck is made from mahogany and is "set" into the body. The fretboard may be either ebony or rosewood, depending on production year. It has a standard body, no pick-guard, chrome plated hardware, and dot-type fret markers, a silkscreen Gibson headstock logo and the usual studio truss rod cover.[6]
Gem Series[edit]
The Gem Series of 1996 had P-90 pickups and special finishes in "gemstone" colors: Amethyst, Sapphire, Topaz, Emerald, and Ruby. The series was discontinued in 1998.
Gibson produced a small number of Les Paul Studio guitars using the leftover paint from the Gem Series. These are rare and highly sought after. However, these are not to be considered original Gems, as they did not include the special P-90 pickups.
Studio Custom[edit]
The Studio Custom was produced in 1984-1985. It was introduced before the design of the Studio was finalized, and mostly had the features of a Standard with a variety of features mixed in from other models. It had a mahogany neck and mahogany body with a maple top, single-ply binding around the neck and three-ply binding around the body, and gold hardware with black pickup rings and pick guard. The 1984 models had two-piece tops, while 1985 models had three-piece tops. The fingerboard was made from rosewood on some models, ebony on others, and had mother of pearl dots for inlays, instead of the usual trapezoids. The neck profile was slim-tapered, like a Standard, and the frets were low, like a "Fretless Wonder" Custom. According to limited information from guitar forums, some of these had the sought-after Tim Shaw pickups.
Studio Standard[edit]
The Studio Standard was produced in 1983[7]-1986 and was very similar to the Studio Custom, including the "dot" inlays, but had a single-ply binding around the body and neck, chrome hardware, and white pickup rings and pick guard. It was also available in different colors, such as Cherry Sunburst and Ferrari Red.
Studio Lite[edit]
In the mid 1990s Gibson produced the Studio Lite and Studio Lite M-III. The Lite models were produced with balsa wood (referred to as "chromyte" in advertisements) portions of the body to reduce the guitar's weight, responding to some players' complaints about the heaviness of a standard Les Paul after several hours of playing. The Studio Lite M-III was produced with a new pickup configuration: two humbuckers with a single coil in the middle. The pickup selector switch gave five single-coil options in the "up" position, and four humbucker combinations in the "down" position, plus an "off" position. The name M-III refers to the Gibson M-III model, which was a Superstrat-style guitar, for which these electronics were originally developed.[citation needed]

One major flaw that I have so far found Rated 2 out of 5 stars
The add on tells me that it has blocked certain items but the most important and really annoying thing about it is that it stops me uploading any photos. I can select a photo on my drive but it does not upload. As soon as this addon is disabled the photos upload fine.
Interesting, could you please post which item/script blocked exactly?
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Now i cant be annoyed by the like buttons everytime i go to a site and it recently stopped a script that would have caused ads (DHTML) to pop up.
I wonder why some idiots dont see the "disable PE notifications" checkbox even when it is right in their face.
example: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/facebook-phishing-protector/reviews/644062/
Rated 2 out of 5 stars
I truly believe this add-on is doing what it's supposed to. The problem I face is the annoying pop-up that notifies you every time the add-on blocks a phishing attempt. The pop-up just keeps coming up every time I close it, making FaceBook completely unusable with this add-on.
I tried messing around with the options and did every variation of checkbox selection I could and the problem still persists.
I'm giving this add-on 4 stars because like I mentioned above I do think it does it's job, it may be user error on my part since I don't see the same complaints in other reviews but the pop-up messages make this app useless for me.
EDIT: I am lowering my rating to two stars because this pop up is really making Facebook unusable. I fiddled with the options and by unchecking the inline popups I got it to go away once, but now it keeps coming back even with the popup disabled.
FB Phishing Protector and FB App Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Does this work with the app and the browser? Or, is it only the browser?
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
I'm not sure if it's working. I also can't see the icon in Pale Moon 24.7. Do I have to use Firefox???
Dear user... there is no icon to show, it works on the background. Also, there should be no problem with PaleMoon, as long it supports the content-policy interface, which it should. As for how to test if it works, what feature exactly? Well, for script injections you can open the web console and load any script there, it should be blocked. To test the tracking protection it should be enough enabling the option and going to some site with standard Like buttons, they should be blocked. Hope that brings some light to you.
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Mostly good not sure but could be a causing memory problems or it could be another add on. But other then that I like that it blocks Facebook scripts even when you are not visiting the website. Seems to be a halo add-on. 0:)
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
I love this addon! It has blocked 3 different scripts for me so far!! Keep up the good work. :)
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Love the extension, it's only detected phishing once but I guess that's a good thing. Can you update it so it stops the new NSA phishing attack I just heard on the news. It's where the NSA pretends to be an fb server and then steals data off your computer? Also, can you make a chrome version of this? Five stars if addedThis user has a previous review of this add-on.
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
I never knew that I was under so much attack. Thank you for the defence!
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Does what it say. Good Extension
Greaat Addon Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Like most of this author's add-ons, they are straight to the point and do exactly what he says they do. Very happy with your work, please continue, there are too many authors writing phishing scripts & hijackers into their apps to count that sail right past Mozilla's Techs. It is good to find a coder that writes real addons to block malicious scripts!. Thank you! This addon paired with 'FB Disconnect' & 'Clean Links' makes surfing FB tolerable. Also thank you for Click & Print I use it constantly best addon ever.

good, but... Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I had a small problem with that add on which was caused by another application the FBPhotoZoom. I contacted the developer and within no time a got a VERY professional respond.

You got to be a retard, Pascal if older then visual basic. And visual basic
sucks balls

@blankflank why isn't it a language. Ofcourse its a language

And btw, i guess your a "pro" in delphi since you can say that ? I KNOW,
i've tried both, i was doing visual basic for bout half year, before i
tried a little c. But then started with delphi, i liked that aloot better.
Visual basic sucks when your going to do more advanced coding

hey good vid but... i can´t find the internet tab its like defenderzones
situation^^ maybe its because ive an unregistrated version u think thats
why i dont have the other tabs??

You got to be retard, visual basic is a simple shit language that newbies
use, and they OFTEN go further to delphi or c so shut the fuck up. Delphi
is more advanced then visual basic, HAHAHAH YOUR THE EARTHS BIGGEST SHIT

''no you idiot. this delphi isÔªø a piece of crap. U can pretty much make
anything in visual basic. u cant do that in delphi'' JC. Are you retarded?
