On Holiday with Magnum Photos: Martin Parr
August 2, 2013
by Martin Parr
"India is as wonderful as it is crazy. It is so photogenic, it is almost overwhelming. This opportunity will allow you to see India in a different light, whilst developing your photographic eye" Martin Parr
Take a holiday with a difference and join Magnum photographer Martin Parr on an Indian adventure to the Golden Triangle.
Experience the vivacity and colour of this exciting and unique country through your photography, in a specially curated experience from worldwide travel specialist Cox & Kings. With Martin Parr as your honorary photographic tour guide, you and a group of like-minded travellers will spend 10 days journeying from Delhi to historic Lucknow, taking in the sights of Jaipur and Agra along the way.
You will be encouraged to photograph your travels, with an informal critique session from Martin each evening.
India is a favourite destination of many world renowned photographers and admired for its colour, culture and communities. In addition to famous sights of the Taj Mahal, the Amber Fort and City Palace, Martin Parr will introduce travellers to the growing photographic community with a visit to the Photo Ink gallery and lecture by Raghu Rai at his Centre for Photography in Delhi.

Bring BB10 to US Customers Sooner
We Blackberry fans in the United States would like to experience and feel the beauty of BB10 sooner than later. Why is it taking so long for US carriers to bring BB10 to us, are they trying to boycott BBRY??? They always have a specific release date for other phones, why not Blackberry's BB10. they have not provided us with any information other than asking for our email addresses... Everyone else is getting it within a week of its launch, why do we in the US have to wait 2 months...All the HYPE will be diminished by the time we get the phones.

About Other Australia
View a map of Other Australia wineriesWith a landmass the size of the US, Australia has just as many appellations. Many wines are simply labeled from their state of origin. Some of these are the most popular:
New South Wales
- home to Sydney and other tourist destinations, New South Wales has a smaller focused wine growing region, but many wines are a blend of these smaller appellations and so are deemed New South Wales appellation.Western Australia
– a small corner of Australia winemaking occurs on the opposite coast of the others. The largest state, Western Australia includes the smaller appellation of Margaret River.Southeastern Australia
– This appellation encompasses the states of South Australia, New South Wales and Victoria. Grapes are often trucked in from at least 2 of these states for crushing and bottling, giving the wine a more general appellation of origin. This is the broadest appellation in the country.About Australia
Like the United States, which is about the same size, Australia's winemaking regions are huddled into one or two pockets of the country. The state of South Australia, which produces about 60% of the country's wine, also has the most wineries and sub-regions, including McLaren Vale, Clare Valley, Coonawarra and Barossa Valley. New South Wales is home to the Hunter Valley, while the smaller, southern state of
Victoria is best known for theYarra Valley. Head way west to the very large state of Western Australia and you'll find the tiny region of Margaret River at the southern tip.

I bought these from Amazon, and they fell apart after 2 days of mild use.
Have these. Pretty crappy. Cord is too short for my needs. I really expected better. I like the quality of the cable itself but I've bought generics better than these. However, the little case is great for storing my Bluetooth headset in.
I've had a pair of these for over a year and use them when working out. The sound quality is ok for the price your paying. Not the best sound quality but better then the original iphone earphones and if they fail, I won't worry about it.
Correct me if I'm wrong. The "noise isolating fit" doesn't block out any noise. That based on other earbuds I've tried. That's not a bad thing if you want to hear what's happening around you. The "soft silicone ear cushion" is likely formed from a thin sheet, not a solid cushion. No mass to it, won't block a thing. And there appears to be a hole on the other end of the bud, which would make it an open back earbud. For me, I spend time in noisy areas and blocking that noise is important.
First time, not sure price, August: the majority liked it from prior experience http://tech.woot.com/forums/viewpost.aspx?postid=5120309 next two times are woot-offs $10.99 http://www.woot.com/forums/viewpost.aspx?postid=5175501 and $8.99, like tonight http://www.woot.com/forums/viewpost.aspx?postid=5214724
They are quite good earbuds. I currently have a pair of J5s, but previously had the J3s. I loved em. And for the price they can't be beat! Heck even on Amazon they're often on sale for far less than MSRP. I need to buy a pair for a Christmas gift, but unfortunately Woot doesn't have the pink ones, only black
While this comment can be said about these ear buds, this kind of 'noise isolation' is called passive. There are different levels of passive noise isolation ranges, the least being accomplished by ear buds. Ear canal headphones produce the best passive noise isolation. If you want only a slight muffle instead of significant isolation, ear buds like this one will do you very well.
I bought these last time they came around. The left bud quit working after 2 days of light use. The cord is too prone to kinks. The case is nice and the assortment of fittings will keep anyone comfortable. The sound is a step above most basic buds but nothing outstanding. For now I will stick to my $10.95 panasonic buds from the corner store. IF you have no buds, get these; I was just unlucky.

Sorry for the problems. They do have a one year warranty. Did you contact JLab?
I have two pairs of these buds and they are great for my use. The cord is a bit on the short side but the noise isolation is plenty enough for an office environment. I can keep my volume much lower with these buds vs the standard ear buds that ship with ipods. I have never had any issues with kinks, but I always wrap up my cord and store these in the nifty case. Amazon sells the mini travel case for $10 (it's the perfect size for a sansa clip) so these buds are essentially free.
ThunderThighs wrote:Sorry for the problems. They do have a one year warranty. Did you contact JLab?
I registered them after opening and they offer a 50% off coupon for the same model. Have i followed up on that? no. I just might retire from the world of buds all together, my ear drums need a break. I'm not bad mouthing Jlabs in any way, I was simply trying to find anything negative to comment on about these for the sake of a quick review. The cord is all i would say needs improvement. But for the price, to ask for any higher quality would just be snobish.
Bought these last time. The cord is too thin and flimsy feeling, and the sound is not great. Okay, crappy even. Very tin-y with low bass. I even tried burning them in, as they recommend, over a 3 or 4 day period. Still not good. I would pass on these.
aojle wrote:Correct me if I'm wrong. The "noise isolating fit" doesn't block out any noise.
All ear buds are "noise isolating" if you cram them in deep enough.
Bought 3 last time. Avoid these. I can't imagine JLAB actually selling these for $60. All I can say is I wouldn't want to work in that call center taking customer calls on these. One pair was broken on arrival (one speaker didn't even work). All three pairs (including the replacement pair for the above) have one side that crackles badly when you put it in your ear or take it out. Sounds like cellophane.
I bought 2 before from woot. One for the wife and me. She hasn't complained and I liked them except that the cord is probably 3 inches too short for me. That is because I keep my phone in my cargo pocket at work. The cord would be fine other wise.
THANK YOU VETERANS! "Occasionally the tree of Liberty must be watered with the blood of Patriots and Tyrants." -Thomas Jefferson. Here on Veterans day we should all take the time to thank our Vets. Your dedication and sacrifice, some the supreme sacrifice has and continues to insure all Americans live free. Veterans, Thank You from not only America, but all the Fee World as well.
I have two pairs of these, one for work and one for home, both have lasted well over the past few months and both I had to "burn" in, but now I really like them. The bass was better than anticipated and the sound has been very clear...The only problem I have is my son keeps taking them.
I had a pair of these a while ago... they were really shoddy. The cord was short, to the point of the buds being pulled out of my ears if I bent over while my .mp3 player was in my pocket short. They broke after about 3 months. As an emergency fix, I bought a pair of Skull Candy buds at Target for about $12 and they felt like a huge upgrade.
JLab Earbuds are "My Obsession". Some people say that makes me "Crazy", but my doctor says it's "Nothing Too Serious". It's a "Mysterious Thing"; "One By One" my friends seem to fall away. I don't blame them, it's just that "I Can't Help Myself".

Breakfast # 8: Pancakes!
Soft griddle-fried "cakes", crispy on the edges, and drenched in syrup. A breakfast classic (please see note below). That's what pancakes are to me and I love them. Whatever version or incarnation, I enjoy these guys: thick, spongy American style flapjacks; light, thin crepes with a myriad of possible fillings; dutch pancakes; little silver dollars; Breton galettes; banana pancakes from Boracay...you name it.
I do, however, have a wee bit of trouble making them myself. They just refuse to turn out! Fortunately, the food blog universe has conspired to send me a number of pancake recipes to try. The first batch I tried out came from Nicky of the wonderful and gorgeous blog Delicious Days. You can find the recipe here. It's for Raspberry Pecan Pancakes, but I left out the raspberries and the pecans because I didn't have them, and I also wanted to try it at its basic minimal form.
The pancakes had a good combo of chewy-ness and sponge, with just a fairy touch of sweetness from the vanilla sugar (I love this ingrdient!), but not too much as the lusciousness of it all comes out when you drench these babies in their sticky-sweet coating. I used a mixture of maple syrup and my favorite stroop, after slathering on some butter.
I do seem to have a heavy mixing hand (I try to be light and graceful, but Audrey Hepburn I am not) so these possibly should have been lighter than what I turned out. Nicky (or anyone)...suggestions to this effect (or any other effect) are welcome!
Like I said, I discovered a lot of pancake recipes in food-blog-landia. So I may do a "series-within-a-series" and post all my trials and triumphs of the pancake kind here on this blog...hmmm...definitely an idea worth toying with. A pancake-marathon. Pancake-a-palooza.
Thanks Nicky for the great recipe! Will try them with pecans next time...raspberries are more of a "now-you-see-them-now-you-don't" kind of fruit here as they are imported from Australia and you can never guess when they will suddenly make an appearance.
Note: Pancakes, or some form of them, are eaten all over the world. But not all are eaten at breakfast. Please read here for more information on the wonderful world of pancakes. I love cultural diversity...it's what makes all of us so interesting to each other...and in this case, it gives me an excuse to eat pancakes at every meal (plus dessert)!

Yummy! My mum makes thick small pancakes just like the ones on the picture! And we always have pancakes for breakfast on Sundays, with strawberry jam and cup of milky coffee (or just milk for the kids). Delicious..
- Rachel said...
Have you ever tried Granola Pancakes... find a granola with almonds and honey... delicious!
Speaking of Rasberries - try French Toast with Raspberries, Bananas and Walnuts.. It is a really great breakfast especially in the summer.
Happy Blogging! - 1:36 AM

I noticed what you were reading. If you like "Elizabeth the Queen" a couple other books to read that are excellent are.. "The Other Boylen Girl, Queen's Fool and the Virgins Lover" all by Philippa Gregory. The Virgins Lover is about Queen Elizabeth and Robert Dudley. The Queen's Fool is about the waiting for Elizabeth to be Queen. Great Books!

- ChichaJo said...
Hi Lori! Thanks for the tip! Would you have the recipe's title? Check there website and there are lots :)
- plum said...
Oh those look yummy! My goodforme lunch now looks very unappetising! Maybe I'll make some on the weekend
I grew up eating in Pancake House at least 2 Sundays a month (my dad's a creature of habit). My usual order is the Choc. Chip Pancakes, topped with peanut butter, blueberry syrup, and two servings of their perfectly whipped butter. Peanut butter is a standard pancake topping at our home. We also love cheese mixed in the batter, especially when the cheese gets a bit burnt & crispy. I love how pancakes have infinite variations!
May I be on your Pancake Panel too? :-P - 11:34 AM
- wysgal said...
They look wonderfully perfectly browned on the edges ... I suppose you do all sorts of variations on pancakes as well? My favorite would be pancakes with bananas. =)
But I've also recently read some interesting recipes for savoury pancakes (i.e. with ham, cheese and cream) so the pancakes are almost like crepes of sorts. Experimentation may have to wait for 2006 though as too many people I know are dieting this holiday season though for me to kitchen test my recipes. =) - 11:48 AM
- ChichaJo said...
Hi Plum! Thanks! :) Well, pancakes do seem like a weekend breakfast thing after all :)
Hi Katrina! I LOVE pancake house...and no matter how hard I try I can never make pancakes like theirs! Pancakes do have infinite variations...all the ones you've mentioned have got me drooling! :)
Hi Wysgal! I like them with banana too, but mashed in the batter :) A favorite savoury crepe of mine would be galletes breton from Cafe Breton...with crab! It's yummy! - 3:52 PM
I'm starved. I love pancakes. I'm going to the kitchen right now to see if I have any of the ingredients. Pancakes for me, I hope!

Hi Joey, thank you for this interesting post. What I can contribute are Austrian /Hungarian "palatschinken"which are thin pancakes, but mine are even much thinner than the usual Austrian version (mine are more like French crepes) and interestingly enough (and rather typically) I use a Tuscan recipe (pancakes in Italian are called crespelle) which also calls for a little olive oil in the batter. We do not have such pancakes for breakfast but enjoy them for dessert after a light meal or just a soup. Usually they are filled with jam, rolled up and dusted with icing sugar. Since you have to do this in a hurry in order to prevent that they cool down before you eat them I have invented another version, my style so-to-say, I prepare them like described and arrange them in a mold, drizzle with some melted butter and caster sugar and caramelize them in the pre-heated oven. Then the edges get crispy - mmhhh! Now I feel like blogging about them....A big hug from Vienna to Manila, angelika
- ChichaJo said...
Hi Paz! Seems like pancakes in all sorts of forms are well-loved worldwide :)
Hi Angelika! Wow! That sounds delicious! Thanks for passing on those wonderful bits of information :) Please do blog about them! I'd love to see it...I'd also love to eat it, heehee :) Your version is indeed very ingenius! Hugs to all of you in Vienna from me :) - 1:33 AM

Perl 6
SMOP: Revision 27
Simple Meta Object Programming / Simple Matter Of ProgrammingSMOP is an alternative implementation of a C engine to run Perl 6. It is focused in getting the most pragmatic approach possible, but still focusing in being able to support all Perl 6 features. Its core resembles Perl 5 in some ways, and it differs from Parrot in many ways, including the fact that SMOP is not a Virtual Machine. SMOP is simply a runtime engine that happens to have a interpreter run loop. Important topics on SMOP
Other matters
SMOP Development ROADMAPIn order to keep this simple, the ROADMAP will stay here and will be edited as needed. sm0p - Lame Default SMOP Interpreter Implementation

1020 East State Highway 152, Mustang, OK 73064
The staff is really friendly! You just have to ask for the gluten free menu...just don't get the fries
4101 Vine Street, Hays, KS 67601
If your GF don't waste your time here. Requested GF menu and they never brought it. Not wanting to hold up everyone else at my table I ordered a dinner salad with no bread. When I asked about dressings they had no clue. Oil & vinegar is what I had to get.
4610 Gallia St, New Boston, OH 45662
Many options to choose from. However, I get contaminated every time I eat here.
500 State Road, North Dartmouth, MA 02747
Eat there so often the staff knows my order. I've never become ill after eating there. The GF Napa Chicken is excellent. The fried potatoes are fried in a shared fryer but have never caused me the slightest symptom and I'm very sensitive.
251 Kennedy Memorial Drive, Waterville, ME 04901
That cannot guarantee that any menu item can be completely free of allergens, but if you stick to meals with proteins and vegetables they are pretty much GF.
1010 E North Ave, Belton, MO 64012
Bourbon street chicken and shrimp is gluten free and since it's made on a skillet less chances of CC
14400 Weaver Lake Road, Maple Grove, MN 55311
i would rate lower but u cant. Food what not good, the manager was rude, and our server didn't know anything about gf. i would not recommend to anyone.
930 South Westwood Boulevard, Poplar Bluff, MO 63901
Several items to choose from. Be sure to tell your sever!
945 North Saginaw Boulevard, Saginaw, TX 76179
They where really good about everything..
5940 State Street, Saginaw, MI 48603
Every single time I eat here and they tell me it's gluten free I leave sick
19 Mall Road, Barboursville, WV 25504
The waiters are aware of the term gluten. If you tell them to clean the grill they will clean it. I have never gotten sick from here.
1283 Arsenal Street, Watertown, NY 13601
the food is good there, but I have gotten contaminated a couple times there
2032 East Baseline Road, Mesa, AZ 85204
Gluten intolerance menu! They can't guaranty completely gluten free.
1622 North 1000 West, Layton, UT 84041
As of 12/12/14 steaks are not gluten free The steaks and ribs come pre marinated to the restaurant and contain wheat. no dedicated fryer for the fries. Ask for the gluten-free menu.
208 W Service Rd, West Memphis, AR 72301
Waite staff were very helpful. Came in & asked for GF menu, received it right away. I had Blackened Talipia w/o the blackening. It comes w/seasonal veggies & fried red potatoes. All very good. They have vanilla ice cream too. Try it if you ever get to West Memphis, AR.
15151 N Cleveland Ave, North Fort Myers, FL 33903
ok gf menu. Food was decent. Didn't get sick.
15151 N Cleveland Ave, North Fort Myers, FL 33903
Just chicken choices but they are tasty.
528 N 47th St, Rogers, AR 72756
Celiacs avoid ALL Applebees. Their nationwide website promotes their gluten-free options, but one location's failure disqualifies all locations. If we were not with people we had invited (here due to their website info), we would have left when the hostess said they did not have gluten free-my wife insisted they did and they did find and allergen list, but cross contamination had its worst effect on my wife that she has experienced in months.
1364 Main St, Sanford, ME 04073
Has a list of gf items from their menu. Quite a few items.
2060 E Osceola Pkwy, Kissimmee, FL 34743
They are not offering many choice other than steak and chicken. I had a NY strip it was really good. Fries are not GF
1000 W Esplanade Ave, Kenner, LA 70065
I asked for a gluten free menu. there was none available.
125 S Randall Rd, Elgin, IL 60123
I was in Elgin for a conference and the friendly servers were happy to get me an allergen list. I ordered the Bourbon Street chicken and shrimp and not only was it yummy, but the service was excellent!
419 N Broadway, Pennsville, NJ 08070
I have eaten there many times and have never had a problem. They have a GF menu and servers are knowledgeable.
990 Providence Hwy, Sharon, MA 02067
Applebee's does have a limited gluten free menu on their website, but their offerings are pretty disappointing. I went there for drinks and appetizers (not a meal, so can't comment on whether the GF meals are good) and couldn't get anything to eat because they don't have a separate fryer. No appetizers are safe, not even the chips and queso (because the chips are fried). I don't get the impression that they are allergy-friendly, especially because they list chips and queso and fries on their GF menu...but since these items are fried in a shared fryer, they aren't safe for anyone with more than a mild intolerance. I'd be hesitant to eat any of the food here.
980 Razorback Dr, Houghton, MI 49931
Be cautious when eating here!!! Their "gluten free" menu has some items that are NOT safe. An updated menu by someone who lives with this issue is needed.
1927 Cliff Davis Drive, Gillette, WY 82718
Not many options, so I always have the same thing.
1000 W Esplanade Ave, Kenner, LA 70065
Had the Margarita chicken minus the queso. Waiter was very knowledgeable. He explained that there are different allergy buttons he has to press when submitting an order and that the food is prepared with extra precaution. It was all very good! No gluten reaction.
2902 U.S. 41, Marquette, MI 49855
Absolutely awful. Zero awareness of a gluten free menu. Atrocious "food".
2800 E 3rd St, Bloomington, IN 47401
Limited but there are some and the menu and food is consistent from city to city and state to state. There is something for the kids and "regular" person or the "picky" eater. A safe bet.
3827 Broadway St, Quincy, IL 62305
Gf margarita chicken and shrimp was excellent. Waitress Amanda was very very helpful and careful of the food.
7250 Valley Creek Plaza, St Paul, MN 55125
I had one of my best experience at this restaurant. I had the gluten free Margarita queso chicken & shrimp and that dish hit the spot. and the service was vary attentive. my only complaint was that my mango tea wasn't up to my southern standards. :D I recommend this when ever your in the area.
1283 Arsenal Street, Watertown, NY 13601
It was an awful experience!!!! The manager and waitress were extremely rude very uneducated on the needs of a person with a gluten allergy and I left hysterically crying! They had a "gluten free menu" but when I asked questions the manager pointed things out on said menu and said the spices they use have gluten in them ... THEN WHY ARE THEY ON A GLUTEN FREE MENU!!! it was the worst experience ever and was even harder considering it was my first experience dining out after being given the news about my new allergy. I highly recommend NOT going to Applebee's on Arsenal street I will MEVER EVER go back

Angels, Pujols look to keep A's on the ropes
Albert Pujols came out of the All-Star break with a career .324 average in the second half, and in the third inning of the Angels' 4-1 victory on Friday night, it showed.
The Angels slugger clubbed a 3-2 pitch over the left-field wall for his 491st career home run, and he'll need to mirror that performance if the Angels are to overcome the first-place A's in the American League West.
"I don't look at numbers," said Pujols, who has nine RBIs in the last eight games and hits in nine of the last 10. "I don't see it on the computer, I don't see it in the paper every day. ... My job is to get ready every day, whether it's the first game of the season or the last game of the season. Obviously success is huge in the second half because when your team needs it the most, you put up some numbers, but my goal is to get ready every day, have good quality at-bats and help my ballclub out."
The Angels stand 10 games behind the A's and third in the AL West, but a strong showing from Pujols and the rest of the team's stars could put them right back in the hunt for a postseason push with 13 of the the next 20 games against the A's and Texas Rangers. Mike Trout, Josh Hamilton and Pujols combined for two home runs and three RBIs in the Angels' win Friday.
"Those are the teams in front of us. Those are the teams we need to beat, one game at a time," manager Mike Scioscia said. "I think in the second half of the season, every game is critical. It's not like there's tomorrow. Before you know it, you're in September."
C.J. Wilson will get the nod for the Angels on Saturday. The left-hander finished the first half as the club's hottest starting pitcher, at 5-1 with a 2.04 ERA over his past six starts. He'll look to avoid the debilitating second half of 2012, when he posted a 5.54 ERA in 16 starts.
Dan Straily, who has been moved up and down from Triple-A Sacramento this season, will look to solidify his place with the A's. He's given up just three hits total in his past two starts, spanning 13 1/3 innings, and has limited opponents to two runs or fewer in seven of his past nine outings.
A's: Cespedes scratched with sore left wrist
Yoenis Cespedes, winner of the Chevrolet Home Run Derby on Monday night in New York, was a late scratch from the A's lineup on Friday with soreness in his left wrist. He was on the disabled list last season with a muscle strain in his left hand.
Replacing Cespedes in left field, Chris Young made an excellent running catch of an Albert Pujols drive toward the foul line with two on and none out in the first inning.
Cespedes is hitting .225 with 15 homers and 43 RBIs. He is in the midst of a 19-game homerless drought. He had 23 homers and 82 RBIs last season, hitting .292.
While playing 129 games last season, Cespedes, 27, struggled with various ailments. Along with the injury to his left hand, he had a strained left hamstring that took him to the DL.
Cespedes launched 17 homers in the first round at Citi Field, followed by six in the second round and nine in the finals. He defeated the Nationals' Bryce Harper in that final round to join Mark McGwire (1992) as A's who have won the Home Run Derby.
"I've seen it," A's manager Bob Melvin said before the game of Cespedes' power display. "This is the first time the baseball world has seen it. It's exciting for all of us. I think it even pumped him up. He's a remarkably talented guy and definitely showed it off that night. I think it was good for him to be there."
Angels: Pujols' foot is still ailing
Plantar fasciitis caused Pujols to serve as the Angles' designated hitter for 57 of the 91 games he played in during the first half, and because Pujols' production is so crucial to the Angels' success, his health will be monitored accordingly.
"Albert's naturally a guy that is important to us," Scioscia said. "Just like any player, you are always looking for things that might be out of character, as far as how they're moving or some of the time if they are laboring doing things. That doesn't change with any player, and we'll keep our eyes on him the same way."
Despite the injury, Pujols has managed to avoid the disabled list this season and sat out only two games in the first half.
Pujols is determined to be in the lineup and help his team in any way possible for the rest of the season, but offseason surgery is not out of the question.
However, it is not something Pujols wants to think about until the season is over.
"I don't want to talk about that right now," Pujols said. "That's not what's in my mind. We've still got a lot of games left and I don't want to put that distraction in this clubhouse."
Worth noting
• The A's have had a stranglehold on the Angles prior to Friday's loss, going 5-2 this season with victories in 11 of their past 13 games at Angel Stadium. Over the past three seasons, the A's are 26-19 vs. the Angels
• Manager Bob Melvin said he hopes southpaw Brett Anderson, sidelined since May 1 with a sprained right ankle, will join the team in Houston after the weekend series against the Angels. Anderson is 1-2 with a 8.18 ERA in three starts. There is no target date for his return. Starter Jarrod Parker, dealing with a hamstring issue, threw a bullpen session on Friday.
• Angels center fielder Peter Bourjos played a little bit of catch on Friday and hopes to begin swinging a bat at some point next week.

Skrunked is when you are defeated, often in a demeaning fashion. This normally apllies to Online gaming and sports but also has other functions. It was invented by the famous british Counter Strike player Skrunk. It is similar to Pwned or 0wned.

If your child is bullied, it will affect his well-being, his school performance and if he does not sees a way out…it will lead to self destruction.
As a responsible parent, your child's safety, well-being, and life depend on you. You need to know how to deal with your child's school.
Bring it to the attention of the school principal, teacher and counsellors. Keep a record of your visit and conversation as you may need to produce these records as evidence in the court.
What is the school going to do about the problem? Will they excuse the bully's behaviour and brush it aside as "a kid's thing", "it's a passing phase", "it's not serious".
Or will they warn the bully, monitor the bully, or suspend the bully?
How will the principal react in their meeting with the bully's parents? Will he stand up the parents or will he cower when the parent threatens to sue the school or denies any wrong doing?
If the school is not helpful, get a lawyer and a journalist. Communicate in writing and keep records of them as proof that school officials received your letters. Write to the local authorities. Get some publicity.
Bullying is rarely an isolated event. Your child is probably not the only victim. So unite with other parents whose children are bullied. Get witnesses who will put their evidence in writing. The best thing a parent can do is sign up for information on how to protect your children. There are plenty of anti bullying programs around the country that can assist you with choosing a program that works for your kids!
Do you have a website for your martial arts school? If not, then you are omitted some very barely credible opportunities. How you can resolve this is by looking into web design so that you can have the website that is going to boost your earning possibilities. If you still not persuaded that website design is important for your martial arts school? Take a look at this:
Some of the most profitable martial arts schools have a website for there own. Actually, good-looking all of them do. It is important for them to increase their publicity to international markets as well as the domestic markets.
Website designing is something that will provide your martial arts school a quality presence on the World Wide Web (internet), it will also help with the marketing for martial arts school. It is not sufficient to get a free website with a sub domain. That will not going to help you any more. Only having a professional website will help you to achieve your goal that what you want to achieve in international as well as domestic market.
Website designing means that you are going to have a direct interaction with your customers and your customers will buy your product or services through internet. Having a website for your martial arts school means that you are going to add completely new division on top of your martial arts school after that you are going to notice that your profits will boost up as you market your martial arts school. FullContactMarketing.com for example is a full service company that offers websites for martial arts already done for you!
Through this barely credible martial arts school that the World Wide Web (internet) has taken off the way your martial arts school was going on. If you were all building your own websites then, a most of us would be in trouble. Most of us do not have the time and most of us basically do not have all of the tools and knowledge to design and develop the website. That's what the web designing professional are for. They have all of the resources needed to design and develop a quality website for your martial arts school.
If your website not helpful in getting revenue for your martial arts school in spite of having a good design, content, layout and graphics, the website is unable to produce income that you expect from your website. The answer to this problem most likely lies in the lack of usability in your site.
So website usability has become a necessary aspect in the success of any website in recent internet world. Not only it attracts visitors to your website but encourages them to take action and convert visitors into buyers, generate sales and ultimately increase the martial arts school revenue.

It's a bug I've been looking at lately: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49981
It's because the card use different power states depending on whether it's running one or two heads. The problem seems to be that for HD6000s there doesn't appear to be a second 'performance' power state in the atombios, or if there is, it doesn't allow the clock to be altered. If you grab the kernel source and alter the numbers I mention in the last post it will fix it, but all it's really doing is using the same low power mode as single-head configuration uses. The source file you want is drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/r600.c, line 510.
Can't really do much about the bug without knowing what power states the HD6000 series supports, and whether they are different from all the other families that use the r600 profile settings.Code:if (rdev->flags & RADEON_IS_MOBILITY) idx = radeon_pm_get_type_index(rdev, POWER_STATE_TYPE_BATTERY, 1); // change to 0 else idx = radeon_pm_get_type_index(rdev, POWER_STATE_TYPE_PERFORMANCE, 1); // change to 0

Acne occurs when the pores of the skin become clogged, inflamed, and sometimes infected. These clogged pores can result in blackheads, whiteheads, pustules, or cysts. Acne is common in teenagers, but can also occur in adults.
Acne starts in the skin's sebaceous glands. These glands secrete an oily substance called sebum. The sebum normally travels through a tiny hair follicle from the gland to the skin's surface. Sometimes the sebum becomes trapped and mixes with dead skin cells and bacteria. This causes clogged pores called comedones.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Blackheads are comedones that reach the skin's surface. Whiteheads are comedones that stay beneath the surface of the skin. Small red bumps, pimples, and cysts may also develop.
The main causes of acne include:
Acne is more common in people who are Caucasian. It is also common in people who are 12-24 years old.
Factors that increase your chance of acne include:
Acne symptoms vary from person to person and can range from mild to severe (based on how many and where they are present). They include:
The areas of your skin with the most sebaceous glands will be examined. These areas include the face, neck, back, chest, and shoulders. You have acne if any of the findings are present.
If your acne is severe, you may be referred to a dermatologist (skin specialist).
Acne will require a combination of treatments. Most acne does not require surgery. Most treatments may take several weeks to work. Your skin may actually appear to get worse before it gets better.
It is also common to have to change treatments after current treatments stop working.
Medications to treat acne include:
There are a number of procedures that can be used by your doctor or dermatologist to treat acne, examples include:
Some of the procedures have risks, such as scarring and infection.
It can be difficult to prevent acne from occurring. It can be difficult to control the factors that cause acne. But, there are some things you can do to keep your acne from getting worse:

The Blood Gospel LP: The Order of the Sanguines Series (Paperback)
An earthquake in Israel kills hundreds and reveals a subterranean temple holding the crucified body of a mummified girl. Sergeant Jordan Stone, a military forensic expert; Father Rhun Korza, a Vatican priest; and Dr. Erin Granger, a brilliant but disillusioned archaeologist are sent in to explore and find themselves in a race against an enemy like no other, to recover a book rumored to have been written by Christ's own hand.
From crumbling tombs to splendorous churches, Erin and her companions must confront a past that traces back to a time when ungodly beasts hunted the dark spaces of the world, to a moment in history when Christ made a miraculous offer, a pact of salvation for those who were damned for eternity—creating a secret sect within the Vatican, one whispered as rumor but whose very existence was painted for all to see by Rembrandt himself, a shadowy order known simply as the Sanguines.

Lots and lots of reviews (3.9 stars out of 5.0) over at amazon http://www.amazon.com/External-Protective-Battery-iPhone-Models/dp/B00409E4JK
Got one of these in a Big Office Cubicles before. The fit is nice, and it isn't a flimsy quality like you may expect. Rarely need the extra battery, but when I do, it comes in handy.
Great price and apart from being a little bulky, this is a solid case.
i love my unu! i have two from woot!. i have this one (1700 mAh) and one with more back up charge (2400 mAh). both are about the same size, but the second is considerably heavier. this one is better quality. the top piece firmly clicks into place and does not come off when dropped, not that anyone ever drops their phone. battery cases are awesome when you use energy sucking apps, like ones that use GPS. when i ride my bike for hours, i like to track it on mapmyride and strava. this would not be possible without extra battery life.
Lots of woots before, same price of $19.99 tonight.

Got one last time for this price. Per a review on amazon I just leave the phone in it and charge both each night. The charge lasts all day then. Nice side effect is that instead of needing apple charge cords you charge the case with a micro USB....which is pretty much universal.
Bought 3 in black last woot to replace a pair of $90+ cases from Mofi I think as both were cracked on the edges and these are solid fit, feel good and I use the battery 3-4 times a week as sprint and poor reception chew through it. Might grab another 3 as someone already took my last :-)
I just tried to buy one. Placed the order and the busy wheel went round and round. When it stopped...blank page. How do I tell if the order went through? It's not (yet) listed on the stuff you bought page. Answer: No confirmation screen and email, no order. Had to start over.
This is a very sturdy case. My last one took so many trips to the ground a wire inside broke. But no damage to the phone. Don't buy white, it causes your pics to wash out a little. I had to take a sharpie and color the edges black, that fixes it.
I have them in both white and black and never use the white one because its slippery. The gloss finish is hard to hold onto. My wife dropped her phone on a tile floor and broke the screen. The black one has a completely different texture and feels solid in your hand.
I'll probably buy this, unless someone can point me to a battery case with a 30 pin pass through so I can still use my 30 pin accessories with it on.
I'm calling for a moratorium on Woot for all iPhone cases.
Can this case be used with an Ipod Touch 4th generation? Anyone know? Thx!

Ipod touches are much slimmer/thinner than iPhones, so no it will not fit in that regard. The pin connection would work, but the case would not be form fitting at all.
For those that own these - How easy can you get the phone in/out for use of 30-pin connection accessories?
Picked this up for my wife last time Woot had it. She was a die-hard Otterbox user but retired that when she tried this one. It has a great texture and she's used the battery many times already. Can't wait for the one for my iPhone 5 to ship on Feb 28.

Much easier than the Otterbox, not bad at all.
I bought one fom Woot last year and its really eay to get out. I have RA pretty badin my hands n I'm still able to remove it with ease. You won't regret the purchase.

This is a very helpful thing to know. Can't exactly tell from the photo but I think I'm ordering the black just based on this review!
I have an iPhone 4 with a slim but sturdy case on it that I will never be able to get off. What do y'all thingk - Will the phone+case fit inside this thing? Thanks!
I've been through two Mophie cases in the last year because the micro-usb port on them seems to be flimsy and easy to break. Is the port on these any sturdier?
Very easy to take off, easier then my otter case.... I love this case....
Bought one of these last time, love it to death. With the apps I use and my sprint service my phone would be dead by about 2-3pm without this, now I can get all the way to bedtime without charging and still have about 30-40% left on the phone. Not quite the protection of an Otterbox, but its a lot smaller than one of the super tough ones ;-)

No, it's a tight fit.
Good case, just very annoying that the case charger is not the same as a iPhone charger so you have to use the charger it came with to charge your phone. Unless you take the case off and charge it.

Bob is putting up the weekend box office totals too much work?
It was only a matter time before Disney started to assemble all the pieces to make Star Wars happen again. For many fans, a daily reminder of the myth and magic of Star Wars is the posters that adorn our walls. Many, if not all of those posters are done by Drew Struzan. The legendary artist recently spoke with Fanhattan about whether or not he'll return to the Star Wars universe.
"Fanhattan: Last time you and I chatted, you talked about being retired, so I'm thrilled to see new work from you. Are you working on any big new projects.
Drew Struzan: Oh, well, never say never, [laughs] because…in fact, I got a couple calls already this week on Star Wars from Disney. Oh my god, I'm trying to be retired! You know, I spent 35 years painting Star Wars. [laughs] I painted Star Wars before most of you were born! But I guess there is always a chance. There's no intention. But I would love to have a day off every now and again, and I have to work a weekend and all through the night. If the opportunity arises, it will be a real temptation. But it's going to have to be a real temptation to get me away from my wife and my little grandkids and my family. Away from the green trees and the blue skies for a change instead of just locked in the studio. But, you know, never say never. All things are possible."
For now we have to sit and await. Personally, I'll be clearing some space for that seventh Struzan Star Wars poster.
" it's going to have to be a real temptation to get me away from my wife and my little grandkids and my family."
That's a pretty simple translation, the only true question is how many zeroes is he looking for?
Wiseguy, Box Office mojo was late this week with their numbers and a three day weekend.. I'll get it up next week.
I want more and more news about Star Wars, this is fun, but.... give me more!!! Come on Disney, I want actors, sotrylines... give it up.
I just read j.j. Abrams was interested in directing the new star wars. true or no?
I just read that too Wildwestie...not sure if it is true, but it is in print
WarCry, I am going to give the old man the benefit of the doubt and assume he really does want to relax and is not leveraging for more zeros. but what do I know...

Everyone needs a backup camera Written By David, Cookeville, TN on Wednesday, September 04, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Giving this 4 stars only because I recently replaced this Rosen camera model I purchased a year ago. Apparently the short cable attached to my camera became defective last week after using it for about 10 months, and that caused a 'no signal' to become a problem. However, Crutchfield sent me a replacement, and all is well again. This is a professional looking camera, once installed. I have a Dodge Durango, and the cable reaches all the way from the back to the front. I had to snake it using the Bojo pry tools under various panels and trim as the other reviews noted. But it's well worth the money savings and effort with a little patience. When I did the original install I had to install a 'relay' in order to get power to the camera. So overall, installing backup cameras can involve multiple steps, but it is definitely worth it in the long run. And you can count on Crutchfield if you have a problem. Pros: Professional looking install, and outstanding quality Cons: Recently had to replace my camera due to a defective cable
Nice Camera Written By Bob D, MA on Thursday, May 03, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I've had two different cameras with the same Rosen Nav system, one a Boyo in a previous truck and now this Rosen camera in my new 2012 Tahoe. I must say that the Rosen camera appears much clearer and has a better picture than the previous truck's camera. I wanted the camera install and Nav system to look as close to factory as possible, which is why I went with the Rosen Nav unit to begin with. The camera was a very difficult install, but I did it myself and took my time. If I wanted to just mount it anywhere, it would have been pretty easy, but on the Tahoes to make it look factory, you have to remove a lot of the internal liftgate components as well as the exterior applique (which the camera mounts to). In the end I'm happy with this. Routing the cable wasn't too bad and you also need to tap into the reverse wire under the dash. I like the blue lines on the picture for guidance. Again, great camera, but a factory look install on my particular vehicle was quite involved to ensure nothing broke or leaks, etc. Pros: Great Picture Interfaces perfectly via the PIN connection to my Rosen Nav Cons: Fairly involved install on the Tahoe Liftgate to get factory look
Rosen DP-1068 Written By dougsatx, san antonio,tx on Tuesday, February 07, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The camera is crystal clear during the day. At night, in pitch black with only the reverse lights to illuminate, there is significant pixelation, however I am able to make out any objects that would inhibit safely backing up. Parking in lots or where there are street lights, the picture is very clear at night. The blue guide lines on the display are great for assisting to get positioned to meet up with a trailer. I did the install in my 2008 3/4 ton suburban. hooked directly up to the back of my rosen receiver. Running the wire to the back of the suburban by removing/ tucking wire into the inside of plastic moulding down drivers side of vehicle. The hardest part is removing the tailgate cover and drilling through the sheet metal. There probably is an easier way but I didn't want to see wire sticking out from the glass gaskets or somewhere else that looked sloppy...I aligned the drill hole to access the plastic moulding that would house a factory installed camera. Then drilled another hole where I wanted to mount the camera. Feeding the wire through the holes,mounting the camera, securing the wire, and taping the connection, everything looks reasonably factory installed and functions as such. A long overdue upgrade!
