About Asociación ASDIR
ASDIR (Asociación de Desarrollo Integral Rural - Association for the Development of Rural Communities) is a community-based organization that works to promote development in the villages and communities where it serves. It was founded in 1999 in the village of Nimasac, Totonicapán Department, by a handful of local men and women to support community projects and group loans. Today ASDIR has 5 offices across 3 departments (Totonicapán, Sololá and Suchitepéquez) serving more than 6,000 clients, most of them in rural communities.This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

J. David Bethel, who retired from government in 2009 – his final position was associate administrator of the Office of Citizen Services at the General Services Administration – has launched a second career as a fiction author.
Through his own publishing company, Two Dog Publishing, he recently published "Evil Town," a political thriller set in Washington D.C. and the Florida Everglades. The book is available electronically for the Amazon Kindle and the Barnes & Noble Nook.
Bethel, who now lives in Miami, said retirement from the government gave him a resource he previously had not had – time.
"I've always written fiction and have had a number of short stories published," he said. "I wanted to try my hand at writing a novel but the prospect was too daunting when I was working full time. I did create the framework for Evil Town while working in DC, and when I retired (semi-retired really) I decided to complete the novel."
Eight months after self-publishing the book, Bethel reports he has sold a few hundred copies. That is "not overwhelming, but I've attracted the attention of a couple of literary agents who are considering taking the book on for representation," he said. "And the reviews have been excellent so that is satisfying."
As Bethel watches the progress of Evil Town, he's also working on two other novels – another Washington, DC-based thriller and a crime story inspired by true events.

Forget all that padding like "story" and "setting" that bogs down traditional role playing games,1984's Heroes Unlimited drops the pretense of context and offers a manual for making any comic book character you can imagine. There is a chapter of game play rules (horrible like all Palladium games), but the rest of this book is the fugue state explosion of Kevin Siembieda's mind as he seeks to codify every possible super hero type and origin without regard to playability. The result is predictably hilarious.
Zack: Oh, hey, it's Rain Man Super Heroes.
Steve: This is about my number three favorite RPG of all time so I am prepared to get super ticked off at you and your negativity.
Zack: What could I do that would possibly make you angry? All we're going to do is take one of the nostalgic treasures of your misspent youth and dissect it like a pig fetus in search of embarrassing details.Steve: I spent three years giving Galils and multi-optic helmets to the henchmen of Shadow Black, Prime City's most nefarious super villain who turned out to be an alien cyborg and also Keith's mutant polar bear's best friend from high school.
Zack: You touch on one of the great things about Heroes Unlimited: it includes roughly twenty different types of characters, from aliens, to robots, to mutants, to dudes who just pumped a lot of iron. Pretty much all of these categories include their own weird rules that only apply to that category.
Steve: Exactly, that's why it is frigging awesome. It's like Kevin Siembieda came up with everything that is bad ass about Rifts, but he hadn't come up with the idea of these dimensional rifts opening yet.
Zack: It takes a strong knowledge base of metaphysical bullshit to come up with something like "alternate universes converging."
Steve: It's probably in Heroes Unlimited if you look hard enough.
Zack: If it's shameful then I'm sure we will find it.

Nikon D750 Officially Announced: A 24MP Full Frame DSLR Designed for Photo Enthusiasts
Nikon Unveils the D600, a Portable and "Affordable" Full Frame DSLR
After months of rumors and speculation, Nikon has finally announced its new full frame camera, the D600. In terms of specs, the rumors were right on. However, we missed the mark by quite a bit regarding the price. We'll come back to that later.
The D600 is in fact the company's "entry level" full frame DSLR, designed to bring the benefits of an FX-format sensor to enthusiasts who were previously unwilling to take the plunge. The camera features a 24.3 megapixel CMOS sensor, an ISO range of 100-6400 (expandable to 50-25600), a 39-point autofocus system (9 cross-type points), a 0.13 second startup time and a 0.052 shutter lag, 5.5fps continuous shooting, dual SD card slots, a viewfinder with 100% coverage, built-in HDR, 1080p HD video recording with full-time AF, and a 3.2-inch LCD.

Spring Branch, TX, United States | Listener Since 2004
"Very Timley Choice Of Subject"
There is a lot of timley information on genetic engineering in this cliff hanger novel.
I tried to turn off my ipod to save some of the story for later but couldn't do it. Had to listen to the whole thing in one gulp!
This is my first time listening to this reader. He has a wonderfully expressive voice. He makes the novel into a performance rather than someone reading from pages of a book.
This is a book that could be true, it could actually be happening as we go about out daily lives, unaware or not wanting to be aware of what is being done to our food supply. Not a laughing matter although the sarcasm expressed by Dr. Welcome was an enjoyable way to lighten up an otherwise terrifying plot.
Michael Palmer is a wonderfully informed person which makes his books realistic and enjoyable.
"Both The Author and The Narrator are Perfect"
First let me say that I am addicted to modern mysteries with intelligent female detectives, medical examiners, contract killers, ditch diggers, surgeons, anything but frumpy housewives and good mommies with perfect kids. So when Tess Gerritsen "gave birth" to the Rizzolli and Isles series I almost inhaled the first book in one sitting through my ears. Then I realized that the voice reading it was so hypnotic, expressive, engaged in the story that this was part of the reason I could not take my ears off the pages. Anna Fields is one of the most talented readers that Audible has. She can read an IRS information pamphlet on tax exemptions for 501 c3 organizations and make it interesting. Although Gerritsen's plots and excellent writing can survive other readers, even the less than mediocre ones, the combination of Anna Fields and the characters of Gerritsen's suspense novels is unbeatable. The Apprentice has so many twists and turns it's like a subway tunnel built by a crazed carnival ride inventor. But she did not fool me one bit with her ending. There will be more to come and a return of the least likable characters of The Apprentice so listen carefully, once, twice, maybe three times so you will be prepared for the sequels.
"It Definitely Won't Gather Dust on your device..."
Patricia Cornwell is one of the most professionally informed writers that I read from cover to cover and series book to series book. Although "dust" was a great listen, it was darker and more disturbing then most of her other books. However, in this, her latest book she failed to make her two side characters, Benton Wesley and Pete Marino anything but wooden replicas of themselves. Actually, the character of Marino was so unappealing in this novel that it was almost painful to listen to his part.
Considering that 20 out of the 21 books in the Scarpetta series were terrific, I guess that Patricia Cornwell should be forgiven for one partial dud.
The thing that saved the entire book from being a 2 star failure was the intricate plot that wove logically through the tale of murder and mayhem without becoming ho hum and boring or confused and tangled. I did figure out "who done it" before the story reached that part, but at least I didn't figure it out 15 minutes into listening, as I do with some less talented authors of detective and mystery tales. And of course, Kay Readings performance was wonderful as usual.
"Intricate, detailed and a bit confusing"
I have read all 16 VI Warshawski books, some of them twice. Although the story line for Critical Mass is excellent, it gets really twisted up in places, like an expensive pair of pantyhose that knots up when someone tries to get into them quickly. You have to listen to the story line in this book very carefully or you will be clicking on the "back" button every several minutes. It would probably help if the listener has some knowledge of the Cold War, nuclear technology, the Holocaust, and the ins and outs of the CIA. I actually have quite a bit of knowledge in this area so I was able to follow the plot but the novel itself was very dark and somewhat depressing. I think that Sara Paretsky was trying to teach a lesson in ethics. It's good to a point but it can become very upsetting. It can also become very confusing to someone who has very little knowledge of the shenanigans that our government has gone through in the past regarding nuclear weaponry. All said though, it's still worth listening to.
"Eight Hours Was Not Enough"
When I was 6 years old, my mother bought me a Nancy Drew Mystery Story. I was MIA until I finished it - in about three hours of steady reading. Like gobbling up an ice cream cone in two bites. It was the start of a lifelong addiction to reading. I can't imagine what I would have done if Audible had been around in those days with excellent readers like Deanna Hurst. I probably would not have eaten or slept. I would not have gone to school. I would have been absorbed into books, non-stop. They would have had to send me to a book detox center. Well, years later there is no more Nancy Drew or Beverly Grey but now there's Marcia Muller and her alter ego Sharon McCone. Not only have I read the entire series up to and including Locked In and Coming Back, I am sitting here waiting for Ms. Muller to write her next book and hoping it will be soon because I am having definite withdrawal symptoms. Her well balanced characters, her courage to allow Sharon to hire people who have, in traditional literature, been shunned or stereotyped and her excellent, complicated plots that take twists and turns without becoming either boring or illogical is what keeps me listening. The only complaint - hey, I want the books to be longer. Well, you can't have everything. Read it, you'll love it.

For the past many days, Democrats have been lending their efforts to enrollment events designed to help alert New Jerseyans to the open enrollment period for the Affordable Care Act, which ends on Sunday, Feb. 15th. Many of those events have been regional or targeted to specific parts of the population who may need additional help with the sign-up process.
2014 was a watershed year for public education. While there were plenty of knuckle-headed 'reform' policies and decisions, there were also some big wins, a lot of small victories and the beginnings of a shift in public opinion. So, let's take a walk down memory lane and look back on the good, the bad and the 'reformy'.
This is a major change in the nation's drug policy, and we essentially have it thanks to the fact that most if not all legislators didn't bother to read the massive spending bill that passed last weekend and is set to be signed by President Obama.
Why is it so important for every one of the nation's students in Grades 3 through 8 — and a whole host of high school students taking the new end-of-course assessments — to devote an enormous amount of their instructional time to taking standardized tests? Why should their teachers rewrite their curricula to align with these tests? Why should taxpayers spend a boatload of money on these tests, rather than put the funds into our children's classrooms?
A new study shows New Jersey charter schools reaping the benefits of taxpayer funds, but without having to teach or care for those students most in need – economically, or disability-wise.
A Trenton, New Jersey, mural of Michael Brown, who was shot dead by a white police officer in Ferguson Missouri, has been painted over at the request of local police. Artists from the Sage Coalition painted it two weeks ago.
Contradicting press coverage portraying even fundraising, FEC records show Tea Partier and Congressional candidate Tom McArthur is demolishing his Democratic opponent. The difference? His opponent's money comes mostly from voters. McArthur's $3 million advantage comes from him and him alone.
On Tuesday night, school officials in Sayreville, New Jersey, cancelled the remainder of the Sayreville War Memorial High School football season amid allegations of violent hazing rituals among players. However, new details have emerged that, if proven true, suggest what happened in the locker room was not hazing—it was rape.
Years ago, an incident like the death of Caitlyn P. Kovacs would have been considered a personal tragedy, primarily the fault of the deceased. Not anymore. Over the past two decades the state of New Jersey has passed a myriad of laws that have shifted the responsibility for such actions to the adult hosts, be they parents or a bunch of partying Frat boys. New Jersey's 'Social Host Liability Act' and related laws additionally have added several serious criminal and civil penalties to such situations, from jail time to steep fines or both. But is it enough?
Folks over at PolitickerNJ have regularly denied having a political bias, and they may not be aware of it. However, often it is quite clear. Here's a wonderful example that could be shared in journalism ethics courses across the country.
Like dominos, New Jersey cities are one after the other passing sick day ordinances that would allow all workers to accrue paid time off for illnesses. The 3-5 days a year are a pittance compared to what's available in Europe, but at least it's a start.
The battle over public education in Newark, New Jersey, is one of the fiercest in the country. The vast majority of students, parents and teachers are decrying the siphoning of tax dollars from community schools to profitable charter schools. Yet, Newark's local newspaper, the Star-Ledger, seems content to back the Christie administration, regardless of factual basis. In calling out the paper's editorial board, teachers with nearly 40 years of combined experience, provide a lesson in education that we can all learn from.
I actually like Donald Norcross. I've had a chance to have a couple of one-on-one conversations with him, and he's a really pleasant individual. But as a Congressman, he has a lot of room for improvement. Recently, he granted C-SPAN an extended interview on their call-in program. You can listen to the whole thing below the fold. I'll admit that I only listened to a small part of it. But that was enough. Norcross was proud to respond to the moderator's question about one of his first votes in Congress - a vote to authorize the Keystone XL pipeline. Norcross claims it is about jobs, bu
Wishing our Blue Jersey community a wonderful 2015, and the continuation of the stamina to keep those voices strong for our shared progressive values.
Appearing on NJTV's with Steve Abubato last night, Governor Chris Christie answered one question in particular without the usual partisan cheapshot. It was refreshing to hear the Governor speak without the audacious and vilifying tone that most in the state have grown tired of.
The answer was in response to a question posed (10:35 mark) by Mr. Abubato in regards to comments made by partisans suggesting prominent activists have created an environment that encourages and prop
Yesterday, news leaked out about the Legislative Bridgegate panel's interim report. A few hours later, the other shoe falls heavily: Multiple sources familiar with the investigation into last year's traffic jams near the George Washington Bridge tell NBC 4 New York at least half a dozen potential federal indictments in connection with the scandal may be handed down as early as January. Those fac
It seems inevitable that the Republicans will take control of the U. S. Senate in January, but not at a veto-proof level. Republicans will retain control of the House and add some compatriots but not reach the veto-proof level. The House could hardly get more dysfunctional. With so many close races, all results may not be known for days or even months. So assuming that the inevitable comes to fruition, what will that mean for the country in the coming years?
Somebody in Chris Christie's corner must have convinced him that holding an Ebola-asymptomatic nurse in a hastily-organized and inadequate tent outside a Jersey hospital was probably a political liability. In a reversal from his strongly-worded defense of his decision to trap her in a tent in New Jersey for 21 days, nurse Kaci Hickox will be going home to Maine. She has tested negative for Ebola twice. She has no fever. Let the hysteria along I-95 begin.
Chris Christie, governor of New Jersey and potential Republican candidate for the 2016 presidential election, is facing criticism after he declared on Tuesday that he is "tired of hearing about the minimum wage."
New Jersey's Republican U.S. Senate candidate says he is lagging behind in the polls because of the rise in the number of single women, who he charges "are automatically Democratic" because they rely on social programs like food stamps.
"Don't Ask, Don't Tell" was repealed years ago. Gay people are generally accepted in the military. But one last major hurdle involves a more broad acceptance of the transgendered, as one vet's plight after her service has evidenced.
Thirty years ago, on its opening day in 1984, Donald Trump stood in a dark topcoat on the casino floor at Atlantic City's Trump Plaza, celebrating his new investment as the finest building in Atlantic City and possibly the nation.
Five days ago, Christie hit the kind of record that does not presidents make. Washington Post had it: New Jersey's credit rating has been downgraded more under Chris Christie than any other governor. And that was just the seventh time. Wall Street hit New Jersey again yesterday, as both Fitch and Standard & Poor's cited the same kind of issues for their lack of confidence in the state's direction under Christie. Not exactly the kind of record you want to build on.
A New York Times article touting the benefits of Camden, New Jersey's approach to crime fighting misses the larger context. Bucking the police union and making the force more white doesn't make it the "un-Ferguson." Especially since the epidemic of racial profiling hasn't abated.

Vote for Botswana Congress Party
Botswana can and must be better!
Botswana Congress party was formed in 1998 when the Botswana National Front imploded following the acrimonious conflicts occasioned by the election of the central committee at Ledumang Senior Secondary School in 1997.
After the congress, a section of the party, calling itself the "Concerned Group", emerged to challenge the outcome of the election. The party was later joined by the leader of the party Dr. Kenneth Koma. This polarized the party.
On the one hand, the was a duly elected Central committee with its supporters, and on the other there was a leader of the party, the Concerned Group and its supporters. A special congress called to discuss the constitution and the fate of some expelled party members in Palapye in April 1998 was violently disrupted by the concerned group.
I wish to welcome all the delegates to our extra ordinary congress. As we are all aware, the 2013 National Congress held in Selibe Phikwe was unable to address the proposed constitutional amendments that were

Peoria City Charter Amendments, 12 (August 2012)
From Ballotpedia
Twelve Peoria City Charter Amendment measures were on the August 28, 2012 ballot in the city of Peoria which is in both Maricopa and Yavapai Counties, Arizona. All but one were defeated.
These measures sought to amend the city charter so that voters would have more opportunities to vote on tax changes in the city as well as limit the terms of council members to twelve years. Council members noted that while there are a lot of amendments proposed, they thought each one was important for residents to decide on.[1]

Best I'd have to say is the Hurricane(I imagine most people will say this). It can easily chop down an Atlas, Banshee, or Brute in a few seconds. My favorite has to be the Eagle. Very light(for a pistol) and give the similar covering fire as the Hurricane, without the extremely steep climb. Plus the Desert Eagle is one of my favorite guns. --- Loading Signature.......... | |
The Hurricane's probably the best all around, but the Eagle's probably the most underrated. I don't understand all the hate (probably the bandwagon effect) but it's gotten much better post-buffs, weights the same as a Phalanx and actually has very manageable recoil, hits for decent damage and is reasonably accurate at longer ranges. | |
I voted crusader. You've got range, penetration, decent rate of fire for a shotty and power all in one (basically a sniper without a scope). You just need good aim due to the complete lack of spread. --- Beware the fury of a patient man. GT: xMarvel Knightx | |
crusader is goddamn boss but i voted eagle because its hard to use the crusader off host --- http://i.imgur.com/fsSme.png Meet herduliekmudkip hater of all things powerful and easy to use. ~ donkeyofdestiny | |
Piranha or Hurricane, no doubt. The Hurricane is probably the better boss killer, but the Hurricane is superior against mooks. --- "Welcome to the internet, where everyone gets off to EVERYTHING." ~kingkaze187 | |
herduliekmudkip posted... crusader is goddamn boss Try sticking it on a Turian Soldier with Marksman specced for max fire rate. My TS carries either a Saber or Crusader and 99% of the time, I'm not host. Faster fire rate allows you to follow up missed shots or kill things faster when you do hit and obviously Turian stability passives help a lot too when firing at that rate. Great combo IMO. I voted for a N7 version of the Predator. --- GT - Xero M XTC http://social.bioware.com/n7hq/home/inventory/?name=Xero%20M%20XTC&platform=xbox | |
I've been growing fond of the crusader now that I found that it's much easier to use when you decrease it's recoil. As such, I use it on my TGI and TSoldier with barrage gear. Piranha and/or hurricane are probably the best by general consensus. --- Why are we born, if only to die so swiftly? | |
The Hurricane with a stability item/mod is hands down the best, and this is coming from a guy who at some time has favorited each N7 weapon starting with the Valiant, and then the Eagle, and to some extent the Crusader Haven't gotten the Valkyrie yet | |
The hurricane is the best but the valiant is my favorite. Carried many a busted gold wave with my trusty valiant on my QMI. --- "He who laughs last, doesn't get the joke" | |
The Best (IMO) and my personal favorite is the Valiant. It's everything I want in a sniper rifle; power, reload speed, stability, spare clip capacity. Though I'm also fond of the Typhoon on a Destroyer. It's fun watching boss health disintegrate. Personally, the Hurricane is overrated. Half of the praise for it is mostly just bandwagoning, when the reality is it suffers the same problem as the Harrier. It eats through its ammo lightning fast. And it's less favorable towards casters because you can't have both ULM and recoil dampener on the gun at the same time. --- Marksmanship Rule #1: TAKE YOUR FINGER OFF THE DAMN TRIGGER, MAGGOT! |

MR SINISTER1983: I just found the easiest way to remove the old one. Use a solder gun from walmart and melt your way through. The solder gun gets hot and is small for that tight area. It literally takes a minute or two. kingtchr1: Thanks man this helped us in Phoenix... tinytwin: i cut mine off with a serrated steak knife! lol its a bitch finding this part in michoacan mexico.... :/ T Hoang: They have a tool to remove that it was like $15 or $20. Wish I would have seen this or new about the tool before I took a saw-all to mine lol!!! trapperrod1: great info ! My hose broke on my trip back from Fla. at night and just by passed the heater. In the day light it looked like there was some sort of plastic coupler but didnt know if I had to chang the whole heater core.

Used it yesterday on my '02 Avalanche. Thanks so much! michael carr: use a 5/8 gas line tool to remove works just as good as the dealership tool and cost a lot less then go to auto-zone and get the replacement parts, the dealership says that there is two different parts and one cost two and a half times more but they are both the same part but different color will run you about 70 to 80 dollars at dealership, 13 dollars at auto-zone for both part no# 800-409 for GM |

I like to go to movies, concerts, and book stores. I love my job - but when I have time away from work I like to go on day-trips hiking or going to the lake. I love camping almost as much as I love reading and going to concerts.

The segment is the very first one, which deals mostly with It's a Small World.
It is certainly not true that the changing portraits had already been decided upon by 1965. Even in the HM segment of the 10th Anny show you can see sketches of familiar (to us) portraits on the walls that were never used. Remember that the HM was still a walk-thru in 65, and most changing portraits were still planned with multiple panels. As late as 1968 and the mock-up scale model you can see unused changing portraits hanging in the hall.
Think of what kind of joke the missionary pot sketch would be if it is indeed an animatronic concept. Let's say it's an AA and the guy apparently moves up and down inside the pot. Why is that funny? The missionary-in-a-cannibal's-pot image is an instantly recognizable one, but what part of the gag involves him moving up and down? No, I think what it shows is the poor guy boiling down to a skeleton (or close to it), and that's why he's shrunk downward.
Incidentally, I've been saying "missionary" all along to keep things simple, but of course he could just as well be an Albert Schweitzer-like explorer. Ten to one he's got a pith helmet on, khakis, and a white mustache. Probably a monacle too.

Anonymous, you could use milk with this (although I would advise against skim milk). The half & half just gives it a nice thickness & good flavor but if milk is all you have, then go with it!

NV Sparkling Shiraz
We select fruit from sandy and stony vineyards in Langhorne Creek, ferment in open vats before maturation in seasoned oak barrels and tank to retain the aromatic lift from these soil types. A small proportion of wine from clay/ loam vineyards fills out the palate and gives the wine length of flavour.
Using a secret liqueuring recipe this richly flavoured, deep coloured sparkling Shiraz displays dark berry fruit aromas, sweet plum flavours, silky tannins and a rich, velvety smooth palate.
Enjoy this classic Australian sparkling wine with Christmas pudding, duck dishes, roast meats or simply by itself. Suggested serving temperature is 8° to 10°C.
Vineyard | Estate Vineyard and Specialist Growers. Langhorne Creek, South Australia |
Winemaking | This wine is a non vintage blend of Shiraz that contains wine from every vintage of Shiraz since 2002. Each year in spring we freshen the base blend by adding new vintage Shiraz, freshening the pre-Christmas bottling and maintaining a consistent style. |
Varieties | Shiraz |
Oak Maturation | Matured in a modified 'solera' system, combining seasoned oak barrels and tank maturation |

"Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2" opens with a calmness that is not comforting. This is it. There is nothing left but the final showdown, and everyone knows it. It does not take long for events to accelarate, and what remains is a tense, spectacular, emotional and satisfying fight all the way to the end.
The end of course takes place at Hogwarts, as all the characters unite when Harry, Hermione and Ron finally finish their journey and come full circle.
It's sad to see this place, the last remaining safe house for the children, no longer children, be destroyed so completely. The confusion and quickness of the fight is enthralling, the deaths horrifying. By now all the actors know their characters so well, there is not a single weakness in the performances, and Daniel Radcliffe in particular steps up to the plate. If you do not believe his journey, his hard choices, and what he is going through, the film will not work for you, and he really delivers when it matters the most.
The theme of choice, a powerful one from the novel, really shines through. Harry's choice between saving his friends and death, between the Hallows and the Horcruxes, between Gryffindor and Slytherin, between Voldemort's path and his own. Their foundation is the same, and the message that we are defined by our actions in the face of adversity is a great one that is rarely tackled in cinema today by anyone other than a superhero. And we're not all superheroes. Voldemort had an army, but Harry had allies. The trust and strength Harry placed in his friends has always been his greatest asset.
David Yates and his team have created an absolutely stunning film. A sadness came over me as the credits rolled. The "Harry Potter" series hasn't earned Academy Awards, and has been packaged as a franchise, but it has created a genuine excitement in all age groups, identifiable characters in an imaginative world, and a showcase for all of Britain's finest talents.
"Harry Potter" may not be the best film trilogy, but it could just be the best film trilogy in eight parts.

Since I can't send you all personal Valentine's Day cards to show you how much I love you all (and I do!), I thought I'd share some of my favorite heart-themed wedding invitations instead. This way, not only will I be spreading hearts and love across the interwebs, but I might also help you find your invitations or Save the Dates while I do so. (Way better than a cheesy Valentine's Day card, anyway! Right?) So here we go… let's check out some heartsy fartsy wedding invites… [Click on any of the pictures below to learn more about each invitation.] Based on the popularity of fingerprint guestbooks, I know a LOT of you are going to love this invite — two fingerprints combine to make a heart.

This tattoo-esque invitation from Etsy seller MyBlueTulipDesign fits the bill for a rock 'n' roll wedding. I like that this one looks like the heart has been hand-stamped onto the paper. But ordering this one will save you a lot of stampin' time. Speaking of rustic — how cute are these Save the Dates? These also come in wedding invitations, DIY Programs even a menu template. Starry wedding invitations a la planetarium WITH hearts!? These are geeky-sweet-cool. I love that this one reminds me of doodling your name <3's their name. Adorable!

What's black and white and has a tiny little heart? Well, Ariel's dog does — but so do these invitations! Any linguistic nerds in the house? I bet you'll love these "Language of Love" invitations.

Review: Crucial M500 480GB SSD
Crucial Reliability and Solid Pricing – Meet the Crucial M500.
When your parent company is the owner of one of the largest NAND fabs in the world, it gives you some perks. Your cost of NAND is lower, your engineers know the NAND better, and you're able to obtain creme of the crop NAND that, quite frankly, you don't want anybody else to have. I generally refer to these lucky guys as Tier 1 SSD manufacturers and it pretty much only consists of Intel, Micron, Samsung, SanDisk, Toshiba, and SK Hynix.
Now a little more than two years ago, Crucial introduced their M4 SSD which was pretty revolutionary at the time. Most of the Tier 1 SSD manufacturers had little to nothing to show for on the consumer side, instead focusing most of their efforts on their OEM businesses. This left a good chunk of the market untapped and when Crucial unveiled the M4, it quickly became one of the best selling SSDs out on the market. While it wasn't the fastest SSD out there, it had great reliability and low pricing – a winning combination at a time when SSD technology was still in its infancy.
Nearly two years after the release of the Crucial M4, Crucial unveiled the M500, which we'll be reviewing today. The Crucial M500 now follows the exact same naming scheme used by Micron, so as far as I'm concerned the Crucial M500 and the Micron M500 are pretty much the same thing, similar to what we saw with the Crucial M4 and the Micron C400. As usual, the Micron M500 will generally be offered to OEMs and enterprise users while the Crucial M500 will generally be offered to consumers/end users.

Warranty | 3 Years | 3 Years | 3 Years | 3 Years |
Crucial's M500 will come in four models ranging from 120GB all the way up to 960GB. This is possible because of Micron's relatively new 20nm 128Gb NAND dies which allow them to cram a ton of capacity into a single drive. We didn't get a chance to sample the 960GB edition, but instead we have the 480GB model which is rated at the same performance level as the 960GB model.
Unfortunately, going with anything lower than 480GB will result in a slight read and massive write performance drop as you can see in the performance specifications above. This is because Crucial/Micron is using slower, denser 128Gb dies across the board, which require fewer dies to reach the capacities. While this reduces cost, fewer NAND dies saturating fewer NAND channels results in lower performance. It's a battle between price and performance, and unfortunately Crucial won't let you have both – at least not yet.
Also notice that Crucial is now over provisioning the M500 beyond the standard 7% resulting from bits to bytes conversion. This is something that wasn't required on the Crucial M4, but with the more error prone 20nm, 128Gb NAND used in the M500, more advanced error correction techniques are required. So, in addition to the default standard 7%, Crucial is also taking another 7% for RAIN, or Redundant Array of Independent NAND – a technology that's been around on Micron's enterprise offerings for a while, but something that's showing up for the first time on Crucial consumer drives. For those unfamiliar with RAIN, it's a bit like SandForce's RAISE (Redundant Array of Independent Silicon Elements). By taking some additional spare area, Crucial is able to use that as parity (akin to RAID 5 or RAID 6) to recover bad blocks in the NAND. This allows for better data integrity, which is more Crucial (no pun intended) in more error prone NAND.
Let's go ahead and take a closer look at the Crucial M500.

Hi, I noticed in Bryan's instructions he said after doing your first cycle of 15's, 10's,5's, and negatives and sd you can skip the 15's when starting your next cycle. Has anyone skipped the 15's and began with the 10's for their 2nd cycle? Any positive or negative responses? Thanks
Dear bilknu, Can I ask where exactly was it that you read about 15s being skipped when starting the next cycle?
Hi dianabol, Thanks for responding. It was in an article by Bryan Haycock. Here's the link: http://www.thinkmuscle.com/articles/haycock/hst-01.htm
The key is you can skip the 15s IF you are feeling no joint problems after your 5s. I did skip the 15s for my second cycle, but I now think that the benefits of the 15s are sufficient to go ahead and include them even when my joints are doing fine.
So do you do an extra 2 weeks of 10s (skipping 15s) with the cycle, so it works out to 4weeks 10s, 2 weeks 5s and then 2 weeks of negatives before your deconditoning period? Or does your cycle become shorter?

Hi Dorian, I did skip the 15's, I am now starting my first week of 5's. I cut my cycle short of two weeks. However I did keep the 15's for my legs workout. I'm doing Fine,but I won't skip any phases on my third cycle.
I believe 15's help heal any slight injuries that might have occured and helps protect the joints so you handle the heavier upcoming wieghts in the cycle. So, they do have their purpose!
High reps that cause the muscle to experience that burning sensation (ie 15s) have several benefits. The burning sensation is caused when the metabolic by-products from the respiring muscle accumulate. These metabolic by-products have some direct and some indirect effects on the local muscle cells (indirect = they change the cell's local environment). In response, the muscle cells adapt by increasing the number of mitochondria within each cell and cause capilliaries to be re-routed to provide better blood flow to those muscle cells. So the result of performing high reps is a muscle that can work more efficiently (more efficeint respiration). In addition, the metabolic by-products have positive effects on connective tissue. The increased blood flow also aids connective tissue repair while the weights are light enough not to add to any cumulative damage. Lastly, lighter weights are a wise idea when coming back to the gym after SD. It takes a little while to regain good form after a lay off.
yep. as frustrating as it is to train lightish for 2 weeks, i think it's worth it. high rep squats and deads are killer.
