Seafoam green is "the" color for summer, so we've shopped the web to find the cutest fashion and beauty products in this oh-so-pretty color
Growing up, my grandmother's kitchen was decorated entirely in seafoam green tiles, and it was -- hands-down -- my favorite room in her house. The color, a fuss-free mix of Tiffany blue, turquoise, and mint, was so soothing. I couldn't help but imagine myself at the ocean, floating along with the rise and fall of the waves ... though I was actually scrubbing the dishes. Needless to say, I was pretty pumped to see seafoam make a major comeback on the runways this year.
Click here to see our seafoam green color roundup.
My first seafoam green purchase? A pair of flats with pink flamingos on top. I've only had them for two weeks, but I've already gotten a ton of mileage out of 'em. Another bonus? Seafoam is super eye-catching, so they get a lot of compliments. Wondering how to get started with this fashion trend? Here are a few key tips and tricks to pulling off seafoam green.
1. Keep things fresh and crisp by pairing seafoam with white. A flowy seafoam green maxi skirt and a white V-neck T-shirt is a great place to start.
2. If you are a color-lover, pair seafoam green with coral or bright purple for added oomph. You can also mix pastels; go for seafoam paired with light pink.
3. Create extra visual interest by mixing in prints. Top off a seafoam green tank with a floral blazer.
4. Play up seafoam green's laid-back vibe by pairing it with distressed denim.
5. If you want to ease into the trend, add a pop of pretty color with seafoam nail polish.
OK, you get the idea. Ready for a roundup of all things seafoam? Keep clicking.

Museums and galleries
Slovenia's many museums and galleries give a deep insight into its culture, history and distinctiveness. The National Museum, the Museum of Natural History and the Ethnographic Museum in Ljubljana should not be missed. Kobarid is also well worth a visit: its Museum of the First World War is one of the finest in ...
Bled Castle, Ljubljana Castle, Predjama Castle and Celje's Old Castle are must-sees in any visit to Slovenia. All four are among the most popular destinations in the country, and with good reason, but there are many other beautiful castles to see.
The majority of monuments in towns and in the countryside are dedicated to the victims of w ar, or major historical figures. Slovenia is one of those rare countries where more monuments are dedicated to artists and cultural figures than to political leaders.
Archaeological site
Slovenia is in many ways one huge archaeological site: important historical remains are found during nearly all excavation work. The wealth of archaeological findings encompass all major historical eras, and speak of all the various cultures that lived here. These findings can be seen at museums and archaeological ...
The National and University Library in Ljubljana is the country's most important library, and is one of the jewels of Plečnik's architectural work. Some of the oldest Slovenian books, such as the translation of the Bible, are kept at monastery libraries.
Military cemeteries and monuments to the victims of war bear testimony to Slovenia's turbulent past. The River Soča area has the most First World War cemeteries. A number of major figures in Slovenian history are buried at Navje in Ljubljana, which was designed by the country's greatest architect, Jože Plečnik.

Cat Intracranial Neoplasia
Cat Intracranial Neoplasia
Intracranial neoplasia tumors are categorized with two different terms: primary and secondary.
The primary tumors start in the spinal cord, brain and other areas of the central nervous system of a cat. Although there is usually only on single tumor, there have been instances of multiple tumors as well.
Secondary tumors are tumors that have metastasized to a cat's brain. The most common type of these secondary tumors originates in the cat's nose, breasts or prostate gland as well as their lungs.
Signs and Symptoms
Changes in the cat may occur gradually over a long period of time, sometimes even years. Initially they will have headaches that they can't tell you about, avoid noises and appear to suffer from Cat Lethargy.
Generally speaking, cats will experience less Cat Seizures than their canine counterpart. This is especially true if the seizures occur after the age of 4 in dogs and 10 in cats. Male cats are more likely develop this than females. The seizure can be either generalized, grand mal, or focal. You may notice that your cat appears to have an altered posture, or a change in their gait, circling, Cat Depression, Cat Diarrhea and/or Cat Increased Urination as well as failing to use their litter box, and behavior changes.
If the tumor is in the area of the brain stem, you may notice profound weakness, vision or hearing loss or smell. It there is weakness and lethargy, the tumor is usually located in the sensory motor region or the frontoparietal area. With visual changes, involvement of the optic nerve may be evident. Each sensory loss indicates a tumor in a different area of the brain.
Laboratory tests such as chemistry panels, urinalysis and hemogram are initially performed. X-rays are only useful if the tumors are in the nasal cavity or the skull and extend into the cat's brain.
Some analysis of cerebrospinal fluid will be done. Due to the fact that there is increased pressure within the spinal column, if drainage is not performed with an experienced hand, the change in pressure can cause the brain to herniate. This is the last test that will be performed because of its potential danger to the cat.
CT scans can tell you the size and exact location of the tumor. MRI is also used in treatment as they are advanced in their abilities compared to CT scans.
Biopsies can also be done and is very important. The biopsy is done while the CT is being performed which practically eliminates former complications of the procedure.
Treatment Options
Treatment is used to control other effects of the tumor. These include cerebral edema and intracranial pressure. This can be done by reducing the size of the tumor or eliminating it. This can be accomplished by radiation, chemotherapy, surgery or immunotherapy.
Surgery is often used in the treatment of intracranial neoplasia. Surgery will depend on the area of the brain that is involved, the size of the tumor and the rate of growth. In the event that surgery, gene therapy, and immunotherapy are unsuccessful in the treatment, palliative forms of therapy will be carried out. This can include medication and is temporary.
The poor supply of data does not lead to definitive diagnoses. Some relief is noted with surgery, but not always. Often combination therapies are used to achieve better results.

Advance Demand Information and Safety Capacity as a Hedge against Demand and Capacity Uncertainty
2007, Operations Research
Xinxin Hu, Izak Duenyas, Roman Kapuscinski
To control a production-inventory system, a manager has to consider the variability in demand as well as variability in her production process. Both types of variability corrupt system performance and by alleviating either of them, the manager can improve the performance of the system. There has been a recent trend towards investing in better information systems to provide better advance demand information. Also, many firms have focused on having safety capacity (e.g., outsourcing or overtime) that they can rely on as needed to protect themselves against uncertainty in demand and production. In this paper, we first address the tactical decision of how a firm decides on production- inventory-safety capacity levels when faced with production and demand uncertainty. We use a multi-period production-inventory model with backordering to fully character- ize the structure of optimal policies. We explore the sensitivity of optimal policies and costs to parameters such as demand and production variability, service level, and utiliza- tion. We also analytically show that uncertainty in capacity may result in nonintuitive behavior, such as more variable capacity resulting in less inventory. Using derived policy structure, through a computational study, we address the strategic decision of investing in better information or creating sources of safety ca- pacity. Our study shows that reductions in costs are significant, with averages up to 30% for advance demand information, and up to 85% for outsourcing. Furthermore, conditions that make demand information more valuable tend to make safety capacity less valuable and vice versa and we identify when either will be more valuable. We also show that the benefits from both can exceed the sum of the benefits from either safety capacity or better information.

Gallery: Living, Water-Recycling Building Wrapped in a Network of Tubes
The network of pipes is integrated into the architecture as an aesthetic feature as well as a functional one -- for example, water pipes are used as handrails along staircases.
Image © Leonardo Finotti
The office building and artist atelier was completed in 2008 and it recently won the 2010 'Built Environment' award from the Zumtobel Group. The project is composed of two volumes joined by a metal footbridge above an internal plaza. The front volume is raised and rests on pillars, while the back volume is set on a solid foundation and includes a 'bird-like' feature on the roof. Large windows, operable shutters and terraces allow daylight to penetrate the interior spaces and lend the building a feeling of lightness.

Kotter's 8-Step Process for Leading Change
Over decades, Dr. Kotter observed the behavior and results of hundreds of organizations and thousands of leaders at all levels when they were trying to transform or execute their strategies. He identified and extracted the success factors and combined them into a methodology, the 8-Step Process. He then founded a firm of experts, Kotter International, to implement the approach across a diverse range of organizations.
We found that companies that became particularly adept at continuous change have three characteristics in common. They:
- Closely followed the process
- Allowed the process to flex itself to their specific contexts
- Measured their efforts in terms of results
These organizations mastered a capability that greatly enhanced their likelihood of success in the present and the future. It also helped them survive: organizations that do not or cannot evolve in the permanent context of rapid change will not last.
Kotter International's Advisory Services and Center for Leaders are designed to help our clients implement this process and develop the mindsets and skill sets necessary to lead your change.
Those familiar with the 8-Step Process defined in Leading Change (1996) will note that we have refined some of the original steps in the model below. This is because we continue to learn about the process' effectiveness during implementation. If we gather enough supporting data, we will make minor adjustments to the model accordingly.
Step 1 Create a Sense of Urgency
Craft and use a significant opportunity as a means for exciting people to sign up to change their organization.
Step 2Build a Guiding Coalition
Assemble a group with the power and energy to lead and support a collaborative change effort.
Step 3 Form a Strategic Vision and Initiatives
Shape a vision to help steer the change effort and develop strategic initiatives to achieve that vision.
Step 4 Enlist a Volunteer Army
Raise a large force of people who are ready, willing and urgent to drive change.
Step 5 Enable Action by Removing Barriers
Remove obstacles to change, change systems or structures that pose threats to the achievement of the vision.
Step 6 Generate Short-Term Wins
Consistently produce, track, evaluate and celebrate volumes of small and large accomplishments – and correlate them to results.
Step 7 Sustain Acceleration
Use increasing credibility to change systems, structures and policies that don't align with the vision; hire, promote and develop employees who can implement the vision; reinvigorate the process with new projects, themes and volunteers.
Step 8 Institute Change
Articulate the connections between the new behaviors and organizational success, and develop the means to ensure leadership development and succession.

March 12, 2011
MISENHEIMER, N.C. Pfeiffer Universitys James Shepherd (St. John, New Brunswick) scored a career-high seven goals in a 17-8 victory over St. Andrews Presbyterian College in Conference Carolinas mens lacrosse action on Saturday afternoon. Shepherd would start the day with the first two goals of the match as the Falcons improve to 6-1 overall, 1-0 in league play. The loss sends the Knights below .500 at 4-5, 0-1.
Robert Hope (Peterborough, Ontario) would assist on Shepherds first strike 2:29 into the first while Shepherd went by himself 1:56 later.

The Knights Alex Tindall (Edmonds, WA) would score hit first of three on the day with 26 seconds left as the Falcons carried a 4-1 lead at the end of the first quarter.
In the second, Lutes and Shepherd continued the ball rolling with goals 1:13 apart before Tucker Hammock (Marietta, GA) got into the action with 4:31 left before the half. Hope would assist on both Shepherd and Hammocks goals. After a man-up goal by Tindall, SAPCs Nick Hund would strike with 10 seconds left as Pfeiffer carried a 7-3 lead at the break.
The Falcons would come out in the second half to outscore St. Andrews 6-1 creating the final bit of separation. Lutes and Shepherd would start the third quarter the same way as they did in the second while Elliot Gilbert (Corning, NY), Shepherd, Berkompas and Hope each tallied after the Knights Steven Tramonte (Coral Springs, FL) at the 10:43 mark.
Each team would score four times in the final 15 minutes as Daniel Shields (Mercer Island, WA) started things off for SAPC while the Falcons reeled off the next four led by two more from Shepherd. The Knights hit for the final three of the afternoon, all in a 1:11 span, to end the afternoon.
The Falcons outshot the Knights 41-26 on the day while scooping up 37 groundballs to St. Andrews 15. Billy Rawson (St. Charles, IL) led the Falcons with 10 groundballs while going 16-of-28 in the faceoff circle. Matthew Rabung (Purcellville, VA) forced four turnovers to lead the hosts.

|Look Who's Freediving!
Garrett 'GMac' McNamara
Garrett McNamara entered the Guinness Book of World Records In November 2011 after successfully...
riding an astonishing 78ft (24m) wave in Nazare, Portugal. This extreme athlete fully embodies the waterman. A passionate conservationist, Garret & his wife Nicole organize community events on their worldwide travels sharing both their love for water-sports and ocean education.
FII was honored to be contacted by Garrett's team as they began preparations for the 2013 season in search of the holy grail 100ft wave. Martin Stepanek, assisted by Ryan McInnis, traveled to Nazare for a 10 day training program providing the FII Waterman Survival Extended Program and on-site support. The goal was to increase Garrett's breath-hold confidence and his teams knowledge of properly handling breath-hold related incidents.
"My confidence is so much greater now. I just went over the falls on one of the biggest waves I've ever paddled up and using the techniques I've learned from Martin made it enjoyable. I really enjoyed the pounding. I always say that I love wipe-outs, and now they are even more enjoyable. That's pretty scary!.
I recommend the FII Waterman Survival course to anybody who enters the water. If you are engaging in some heavy water sports, then it is ESSENTIAL. Do yourself a favor. Take the FII Waterman Survival Course." - Garrett McNamara, World Record Big Wave Surfer

Bittersweet Candy Bowl is a weekday comic about a bunch of friends going through school, getting tangled up in relationships and dealing with everyday drama. It's supposed to be fun, touching and amusing, and hopefully you find it that way too!

My second favorite comic of all time, and I must say that\'s an achievement due to the sheer amount of comics I read. It is also the only comic I read that actually made me a little sad it was the start of the weekend, as it only updates on weekdays. Characters, while some start stereotypical, always branch off into different then when they started, plot is good, while sometimes predictable. There is no such thing as a Mary Sue, as every character has their quirks. Hell, sometimes you just cant decide if you love or hate some characters (Mike, the main male character, for me)
All in all, I love the story, characters and the flow of it all. 5/5
Great comic, brilliant character design, incredible storyline with tricksy arcs. If you don\'t like the art, i dont blame you, although it gets much better, and Taeshi\'s art style is perfect for showing the massive amount of emotion in this comic. Don\'t let the mediocre beginning put you off, i promise it gets SO VERY MUCH BETTER! p.s, I recommend listening to the killers and snow patrol while reading
NOTE: This review is split into two parts. The first half was made before I finished reading the rest of it (stopped somewhere before the Awakening Arc). The second half was made when I finally caught up with the comic wherein Back and Forth was just starting so I may be missing some things that have happened in the latter strips. Anyway, on to the review:
Before anything, may I just point out that yes, it has quite a feminine name and that banner really doesnt help in dousing the feminine ring to it. But I assure you gentlemen, its not in anyway so girly that youd be hung for reading it. Think of it as the Powerpuff Girls (admit it, you liked that show and it kicked major ass).
So yes, lets proceed with this introduction. Note though that Ive not yet finished reading the rest of the webcomic so do forgive me for any plots I will be missing. Also, spoiler warning!
Bittersweet Candy Bowl is a webcomic about two childhood friends, namely Michael (Mike for short) and Lucy. Its a pretty basic slice-of-life themed webcomic, where everything in the comic could happen in real life (except for the talking pets). The story progresses through time so they grow up and age.
Bittersweet Candy Bowls cast is quite the interesting one. I personally dont find any of them boring as they all add some spice to the webcomic. Up first is Mike, a humble and thoughtful main male character of the webcomic. Hes quite the charmer but is very sensitive to loud sounds and is subjective to the cold (which is why he wears a scarf). He is the childhood friend of Lucy, a tomboy (kinda) and the tough main female character of the webcomic. She has a deficiency though, and that is her left ear, which is deaf. She wears a big pink bow, given to her by her mother. They are quite the rivals at mostly anything because of Lucys nature to beat Mike at everything he does.
This friendly rivalry dates way back in their preschool days, where they first met.
Theyre accompanied by their pets. Lucy has Yashy, a little Yoshi-like female who likes running her mouth a lot, so much so that she frequently gets punted off-screen by the characters because of her excessive insults towards them. She is friends with Mikes pet, Blur, a bluebird that Mike saved one day. He is named so because he has amnesia and could not remember his name.
Them being as pets, both of them cannot always be around our two main characters, so come in the supporting cast: Their friends from school.
First off, we have Daisy, a smart feline who has quite the crush on Mike (she even calls her Mikie). She is usually happy and very carefree. She wears a necklace, a gift from her parents. Next up is Paulo, another feline who is your typical pervert. He always hits on Lucy who always beats him up whenever he tries his charms on her. Despite this, he is very confident and handsome (Lucy said that). Last to the fray is David, a dimwitted canine who knows nothing better than to think of sexual innuendos. He is the only dog in their circle of friends and I must say hes pretty random at times, so random that hes funny.
They end up staying together, even through high school, meeting new friends along the way. So yes, the cast does increase in time.
Now we move on to story.
As said before, its your typical slice-of-life webcomic. Theres no extraordinary thing happening here. Its mostly light-hearted and geared towards comedy, but it has its serious times (also sprinkled with comedy). As far as my reading goes, there have been quite the number of serious events in the webcomic, all of which develops a character even further. Theyre also very interesting and engaging, not a long, dragged-out essay about them. Overall (from what Ive read), its a really fun and enjoyable read. No chapter has bored me yet and Im excited to see what happens in the following ones.
The art is a bit to be desired though. At times, you cannot make out what the characters are doing unless you stare at it for some time. It is however, cute and it fits the theme of the webcomic. This problem also translates to the text which is barely readable at times. Happily, it gets better. Judging from the latest strip, it looks rather nice and still keeps the cutesy factor.
So yeah, if you have the time (its 450+ pages long and counting) I definitely recommend reading this rather surprisingly well-written and amusing webcomic.
Now that Ive read through the entire webcomic up until the latest one, I can finally give my full opinions about it. Yep, this is merely a follow-up to my first post, so welcome back Bittersweet Candy Bowl! Please note once again that there WILL be spoilers. If you dont want to be spoiled, leave immediately!
From where I stopped (which I have sadly forgotten, but I think it was Chapter 28 or even earlier), the drama was kicking in. The direction of the comic was taking a turn from a very light-hearted and quite plotless comedy to an often thought-provoking and heart-tugging drama (I should stop with the hyphenated words). Happily though, the comedy was still intact when the drama rolled in and at often times balanced the theme, which in turn didnt evolve into a whole bawling-your-eyes-out webcomic wherein its just asking you to take it really seriously. This is whats so great about Bittersweet Candy Bowl, it doesnt go all out with the drama, it just kinda knows when to stop and give you a breather or something.
New characters have joined the fray, both main and sub characters. One main character introduced to us is Abbey, a gentle and loving bunny (who is weirdly considered a cat). However, this pansy (as Paulo would put it) of a character can become very cross and help out those who are in need whatever means necessary. He has a troubled past which makes him quite an unstable character. Another character is Tess, a senior (was a junior when the gang met her) who acts as the gangs school guide for their freshman year. She is a protective and encouraging (albeit persuasive) female. She too has a dark and rather troubled past regarding her past years in the school and in the long run haunts her present. Despite this, the gang still accepts her as a friend and is often protected when unsolicited violence comes knocking up her door.
Another thing Ive noticed is that the chapters are divided up into several arcs in the archive section. These chapters focus on a specific event in their lives. For example, the Old Flame Arc heavily focuses on Mikes infatuation with Sandy.
As said earlier, the plot has thickened a lot. Character development is now one of the main focuses of the webcomic and a common method of developing a character in this webcomic is through flashbacks. I cant count how many flashbacks have happened. Its not one of those quick flashbacks either where only one scene is shown. Sometimes, a whole chapter is dedicated to ones flashback. It works really well in narrating the past of the characters.
The story has increasingly become deeper, focusing on Lucys troubled state with Mike. The following chapters have focused on developing both characters very intricately in a way that you somehow get attached to them (mostly with Lucy). These string of events dont leave the other characters ignored and at bay though as they too have their time of shining with their own development.
The art has improved by a mile, even the text is now readable most of the time. Chapter 47 is where the style truly changes from traditional black and white media inking to fully digital with color and shading, even. The result is amazing and makes the comic much more attractive. The characters look much more refined and it even mimics the style of the old comics with a pop-art theme. Despite these major changes, the cutesy is still there front and center.
Overall, I still think its a well-written and amusing webcomic. By reading through the whole thing however, it isnt just well-written and amusing, but a very thorough and incredibly enjoyable webcomic. A deep and compelling storyline coupled up with interesting and captivating characters make this webcomic an absolute gem among others. Only a few from my list of recommended webcomics have captured my emotions (Better Days and a little bit of Jack if youre wondering) and this is one of them. Undeniably, this is one of the best Ive ever read.
To follow up my review:
Greeting all you here and there on the forums and elsewhere!
Warning this is a LONG read! (Summed up at bottom)
It is I, the great Neko whom none of you know or have never heard of.
I just wanted this public so people could comment and ect.
Being a amateur writer and avid webcomic enthusiast I thought I might say a few things about this webcomic!
Id like to praise this comic is several categories and constructively criticize it elsewhere, if you do not mind. Since Ive read its entirety in just under 4 days I noticed a few things:
A Positive: The plot is REALLY well thought out. Taeshi, I commend you for the great structure youve presented. Seriously. This is the most well thought out comic Ive read.
A Negative: You do tend to sometimes abruptly change pace/setting/story without much segwaying. I just got lost a few times when the plot jolted. Not very common, but just a note.
A Positive: The characters are very well portrayed and realistic. I find I can easily parallel them with the kids I knew in Highschool. So far NONE of the characters seem forced (unless you intended them to be). Seriously well done and thanks for it!
A Negative: Updating is only 3 times a week. OK, this one doesnt REALLY bother me as 3/week is really good. I just want MORE of the great storytelling that you give!
And to leave on a positive note: Your plot, while well thought out, is also varied. you Dont just stick to one character or theme and you constantly are building a more thorough universe that is VERY immersive! This world youve created is AMAZING. Characters flow in and out naturally and that is no hard task!
Overall Review:
Amazing work! 9/10 and wonderful! Keep it up and I look forward to reading as the tales unfold! Go Taeshi go!
Wish it never ends
the comic is great
Bittersweet Candy Bowl is a self advertised \'light and fluffy\' comic that has quite a bit more drama than it\'s creators seem to want to admit. This is hardly a bad thing, as it is extremely well written, and you will feel every blow that comes to these characters as they try their hardest to make it through their school years.
When it\'s funny, it\'s hilarious. When it\'s touching, it\'s absolutely heartwarming. When it\'s depressing, it\'s down right heart wrenching. I know so few comics that try and touch on all these areas, and not only succeed, but do it so masterfully. You will laugh, cry, and go \"Awwww\" till your face hurts.
The art in the early days isn\'t great, but it\'s far from terrible. And it gets better and better until we have what we do now. Also, the first few chapters can be a little confusing, as there seems to be allot of mayhem in the way it\'s laid out, but it gets over that hurdle fast enough. But these are all minor complaints.
Finally, if the \'furry\' element is at all deterring you, don\'t let it. Yes, the characters are cat\'s and dogs, and yes, this is an aspect of the comic\'s world, not JUST an aesthetic choice... That\'s where it ends. It simply gives the characters a unique look and feel, making them cuter etc. There is no ties to the furry community here. As for furrys wishing to read this... I\'m sure they\'ll appreciate the anthopomorphic characters just as well here as anywhere else.
So to sum up all my ramblings... If you enjoy a good drama comic with light hearted trimmings and fantastic writing, and can stand to have characters sometimes take the wrong path and make the wrong choices rather than just always fixing everything as soon as it happens, then you\'ll enjoy this comic.
Bittersweet Candy Bowl is my guilty pleasure.
I have always generally disliked manga and the whole cutsey-wootsie aspect that comes with it. I find it to be terribly annoying, honestly, and the fact that it is constantly mimicked bothers me to no end. I also generally don\'t seem to get along with furries, and I almost always loathe furry webcomics, as they mimic the \"cute\" mangas, while injecting their own bizarre sexual fetishes into the mix. In fact, I find in general, the majority of story-based webcomics are completely devoid of any artistic thought and seem to be carbon copies of each other; they have boring stereotypical characters that have no depth to their personality whatsoever.
All that said, Bittersweet Candy Bowl, on the outside, is essentially a very cute comic about a bunch of furries who go to a highschool and fall in love and have wacky adventures.
But, it is more then that.
I came across Bittersweet by accident, and had every intention of having a laugh at another generic furry comic, (Yes, Im a complete dick, I know) but I quickly realized it was much more then that. The characters are much more dynamic then expected, with lots of growth obvious as the comic goes on. They all seem to have multiple sides to their personality and interact with each other realistically. Everything in the plot seems to work and the majority of chapters each seem to reveal something new about the characters in it. You will bond with the characters and feel their ups and downs and relate to them as if they were real people. The story always remains silly and cute, without ever really entering foot into the dreaded animu/ kawaii~~ trap most artists drawing manga fall in. The story is (with the exception of a few of the earlier chapters) interesting and the writing is very good, and thats all I ever want from a comic.
Art-wise, the comic is quite professional looking. Many of the new pages feature lots of interesting shots and are planned quite nicely. Once you get past the fact that every character is anthro, the art is cute and many of the facial expressions I find quite funny. The coloring on the newer comics is also quite exceptional, creating effective atmospheres and making otherwise boring backgrounds interesting. There is also great timing between characters movements, making the few action scenes real treats.
However, the comic is not without its faults. Some of the early comics seem useless and like filler, and the art seems rushed. However most of the problems in the earlier comics have been corrected with the newer ones which feature colored art with more interesting panels. The art is generally quite good in the newer ones, however sometimes has some minor flaws, which the creator will be more then happy to tell you all about (SHIT I MADE THAT GUYS LEG TOO LONG I AM SCUM/ AGGHHHHH THAT PANEL IS SO EMPTY AND BORING NO NO NO.) But the great writing more then makes up for that, to the point where you would need to be looking for it to see it.
All in all, its a cute and sweet comic that you should defiantly check out. It sure as shit makes Mondays a lot nicer and you will begin to wish the updates came faster.
Ps. Taeshi, if youre reading this, I believe I am your only reader who hates David.
Bittersweet Candy Bowl is a perfect example of why you shouldn\'t judge a book by it\'s cover. Despite it\'s cutesy, some would call \"furry\", exterior is a surprisingly deep and expansive world full of wonderful and three-dimensional characters that don\'t come off as forced stereotypes or comic tropes of \"smart guy\" or \"hot girl\" It seems everyone has their own back-story and thoughts that drive their specific personalities and decisions.
The stories flow consistently as well never seeming stop and go as most comics would. They flow nicely into each other and thus provides a better experience for the reader, as for the quality of the pages they aren\'t the highest quality art but it\'s still above average, and that suits me just fine.
Also in terms of the content, this comic gets away with that fine line of genuinely coming off as funny AND dramatic, you\'ll laugh and you\'ll wonder how the characters will change or grow with the events that happen to them. You get to care what happens to these characters and comics rarely can do that successfully.
Bottom line, go read the comic. Add it to the list of comics you read as I would rate it among some of the best and it needs to be more known.
And on a final note, keep an eye out for David if you do decide to read the comic. He\'s the best, period.

The Hagerstown Suns--Playing Baseball 30's Style
The Hagerstown Suns--Playing Baseball 30's Style
The Hagerstown Suns are a minor league baseball team based in Hagerstown, Maryland.
Though based in the Carolinas, this League has been moving steadily northward, gathering teams along the way. They are the Class A affiliate of the New York Mets major-league club starting with the 2005 season. The Municipal Stadium, home to the Hagerstown Suns, which seats 4,600 fans, was built in 1931, and has been apart of many different leagues throughout the years, including: The Eastern League, Carolina League, Piedmont League and the Interstate League. The Suns' home stadium is a grand old ballpark with its wooden plank bleachers and 40's style grandstand. There just aren't many of these old ballparks left. Visiting the Municipal Stadium and watching the Hagerstown Suns play is like watching a game from an era long past. The Hagerstown Suns mascot is The Wooly Bear Caterpillar.
Hagerstown Municipal Stadium is the site of one of the greatest historical moments in baseball history. Willie Mays, one of baseball's greatest legends ever, made his professional baseball debut right on this field. He was a member of the visiting Trenton (NY Giants) team in 1950 at the time.
The Hagerstown Suns have it made playing 21st century baseball in the 1930s baseball atmosphere.

San Diego – Nov. 24, 2014 – Zodiac® Pool Systems, Inc., has reached a settlement agreement with plaintiffs which, after court approval, will bring to a close Zodiac's involvement in two class actions that resulted from an earlier FTC investigation alleging that PoolCorp had used its position as the largest distributor in the swimming pool products industry to limit competition. Zodiac settled this matter to avoid protracted litigation and the expense that results from antitrust lawsuits, even for defendants who ultimately prevail at trial.

Action sniper game.
This is the Korean version of Contract Killer 2.
For your convenience, you can read below our original review on the English version:
The story repeats, in more than a sense. You play the role of a freelancer sniper with a golden heart who only accepts to kill bad guys and evil doers. You have to fulfill every mission you receive in order to earn money and purchase better equipment to undertake more difficult and risky missions.
Missions usually consist of different stages where we will often camp from a roof or wherever and kill any enemies showing up, but we can also find ourselves trapped on the ground looking for cover and killing enemies softly throwing knives at them or even making use of melee attacks, which are an addition regarding Contract Killer 1.
Graphics are great, though not outstanding comparing to other similar titles, even some enemy animations seem a little bit outdated. Anyway it's a great game enjoyable by all fans of the genre, if not for the freemium formula, which urges to upkeep upgrading your equipment every other time through relatively expensive in-app purchases, to the point of saying that we would preferred a closed $2 or $3 paid version instead of this "free plus whatever you might buy" version.
On the other hand, voices and sound effects are awesome, and missions are quite varied and make up a somehow linear gameplay and a lackluster story. Experience system and badge collection are well balanced and there are several welcomed customization options.
In conclusion, here we have an awesome top-notch sniper game requiring a truly high end device, a long previous download and a series of equipment purchases in order to advance beyond the very first levels (several hours of gameplay anyway).
Use scopes and silencers to conduct long-range assassinations
Use cover and stealth to sneak up on your enemies and perform devastating melee attacks or just blast away! It's your choice.
Complete dozens of unique Challenges to earn titles, badges, and big rewards.
Assassinate high-profile targets, Eliminate all enemies at street level, Survive sudden ambushes, Defuse hidden bombs, and Ghost your way through enemy lines.
Upgrade weapons with scopes, silencers, and magazines and outfit Jack with throwing knives, body armor, and brass knuckles.
Contract Killer 2 is free to play, but you can choose to pay real money for some extra items.

Great Card
I was very happy with our Christmas Cards. I liked how I could coordinate the color of the card with the picture that I was using. I like that there is a message on the back of the card and I could modify it. The card is a heavier card than a lot of cards that I have seen which I also liked. We will be ordering next year's Christmas cards from MagnetStreet.

NASA upgrades IT for now with eye on future
Wednesday - 2/22/2012, 8:56pm EST
By Jason Miller
Executive Editor
Federal News Radio
NASA is upgrading and revamping its technology infrastructure not just for today, but also for tomorrow and for five years from now.
For instance, NASA chief information officer Linda Cureton is starting to analyze how voice in the cloud would work.
"The field matures faster than our budgets and planning cycles," Cureton said. "We might plan now for fiscal 2014 to do something, but this could change four times between now and then. We want a flexible type of approach so we can take advantage of some of these opportunities as they come up. Voice-as-a-service is one of them because it's really coming out very fast."
The backbone of this effort to prepare for the future are the three technology infrastructure contracts under its IT Infrastructure Integration Program (I3P) NASA awarded last year worth more than a combined $4 billion.
Under I3P, NASA is consolidating five separate contracts, and adding more and newer technology capabilities. And in a short period, NASA already is seeing huge benefits for I3P.
Gary Cox, NASA's associate CIO for enterprise services and integration and I3P program leader, said under the Agency Consolidated End-user Services (ACES) contract employees are getting daily back up services and better security tools, including data-at-rest.
"We've been without refreshes for quite a while heading into this," Cox said. "Now users are getting new the hardware and it's pretty robust and well configured. We have our gold build on this which is [Microsoft] Windows 7 and Office 2010 so things are coming up the latest standards."
Cox added NASA expects to see about 22 percent savings from ACES over the course of a year, and a 30 percent discount on products under the vendor's catalog.
Under the Enterprise Applications Service Technologies (EAST) contract, Cox said NASA switched contract types from a cost-plus to a firm fixed price.
"One good thing it does for us is allows more insight and granularity into what it costs to support particular applications," Cox said. "As the budget environment becomes more constrained, we will be able to make better decisions about which applications we support and to what extent."
Cureton said a secondary goal for NASA under the EAST contract is more innovation in software development, and under ACES is to make data accessible from anywhere, at anytime and through any device.
The third contract is the NASA Integrated Communications Services (NICS) where it will create an end-to-end network for mission and support organizations.
Cox said one of the biggest benefits is the agency now has a single incident tracking system for network problems.
"We think that improves the management of the network and responsiveness to the customers," he said. "Right now we are focused on catching the services at each of the centers, picking up their local area network and in some cases, telecommunication and cable plant services, making sure we don't drop any of those."
Cox added in the future a common virtual private network through NICS is in the works.
NASA has two more contracts in the works as well.
The agency issued a draft request for information earlier this month for cloud services for hosting of public websites and other external applications under the Web Enterprises Services and Technology (WEST) contract.
"We're still pulling together a procurement schedule on this," Cox said. "A lot of this will depend on the extent of comments we get from industry."
NASA had awarded the small business set-aside WEST contract to the Portal Group in August.
A losing bidder protested the award to the Small Business Administration, and the SBA deemed the winner and the protestor not to be small businesses.
The agency cancelled the award in October, and changed the strategy for the acquisition.
NASA now expects to release the request for proposals for WEST by June 30 and make an award by April 30, 2013.
The other contract is for NASA enterprise data centers (NEDC). Cureton pulled that one off the street to figure out how cloud computing fits into NASA's plan.
Cox said the goal under this program is to have a local and reliable data center for each NASA Center and then having some specialized data centers for mission areas, such as high end computing.
"We are consolidating, but certainly we will not get down to one or two," he said.
Cureton said most of the data center consolidation work has been at the centers, and the local contracts can meet their needs.
"We looked at the low hanging fruit of cost savings, which is in power and utilities," she said. "We have a creative project and that has helped us measure and monitor some of the benefits that we've seen from the consolidation. The other thing we found is that we can get a great benefit not just from consolidating, but by modernizing, using newer equipment that uses less energy has saved us a lot of money."

If one has attained a relatively high-level of mindfulness, meditative vision, and action -- if one looses that attainment --is it more difficult to begin again? How can one re-engage to discipline the mind? There are, in some ways, more obstacles to overcome. Perhaps there are thoughts that one's efforts are not 'enough' (in comparison with previous attainment) or that one's efforts are for naught if one cannot maintain a certain level.
Please, those who have had such experiences, your thoughts would be appreciated.

Trade Costs and Economic Development
2012, Economic Geography
Michele U. Fratianni, Francesco Marchionne
We test the hypothesis of the circular causality between trade costs and degree of economic development using data on Italian provinces. Using different methods to control for multilateral resistance, we apply a gravity equation to estimate sectoral exports to 188 countries over the period 1995-2004. Provincial trade costs are constructed as the sum of five province-specific elasticities, including distance, adjacency, and common money. We find that Italian provinces are heterogeneous with respect to trade costs. These costs are influenced by lagged provincial per capita income and industrial structure. In turn, trade costs influence future provincial per capita income. This two-way relationship between trade costs and income is broadly consistent with the cumulative causation process emphasized by the New Economic Geography.
Fratianni, Michele and Francesco Marchionne (2012), "Trade Costs and Economic Development," Economic Geography, Vol. 88, No. 2, April, pp. 137-163.
