Raw Canadians?
Raw Canadians?
My family is considering a move to Canada in the next two years(my husband is a citizen) and I'm curious about the raw vegan crowd up there. If you are a raw Canadian, please tell me where you live and what the scene is like there.
Luna blu used to be a member on here, she was really fun it's too bad she left. She lived in Canada.
I live in Toronto. People are really open minded here because of the diversity in the city. However, there are only 2 raw vegan restaurants in the entire city (Toronto is fairly large). I suppose that's better than none. The scene here isn't very big, I don't know any raw foodists but I haven't exactly looked very hard or searched for any events. Where are you thinking of moving and where are you moving from?
Well, my husband wants to move to either Victoria or Vancouver. I fell in love with Montreal last time I was there and prefer Eastern Canada in general. So we'll see. It will probably depend on the job market at the time.
hey there,
I'm raw in Victoria! There is a fully organic raw vegan cafe that just recently opened, and a gourmet restaurant with some raw meals and desserts on the menu – they're side by side downtown. As for a raw community here, I know a few raw folks and there is a monthly raw potluck that attracts about fifty people each month (I haven't been yet). All of Canada is beautiful though :)
Rosita-Khan I too am raw in Vic! It is such a lovely city, we are truly fortunate…Maybe I'll bump into you at Bliss one day!
ps I LOVE your helmet, too cute. what kind of bike do you ride?? I have a 73 Raleigh SuperBe3
Hi there, I just moved to Canada too. I live in Edmonton, Alberta. Sunny Alberta…
Hi there, I just moved to Canada too. I live in Edmonton, Alberta. Sunny Alberta…
I'm in Edmonton, alberta too. The raw vegan scene up here is pretty slim pickins methinks. But it's a gorgeous place. Ive lived here my whole life and Im very attatched.
Hey Ori I forgot you were moving here. How are you liking edmonton so far? I hope everythings going well!
I am in Montreal, as far as I know there is only one raw restaurant/cater (crudessence) but I never went. The city is very open minded as you probably know and welcomes cultural diversity. good luck and welcome!
I live in Vancouver, we have a really great raw vegan community. There is Raw BC that puts raw vegan events (raw speakers mostly) on mostly in Vancouver and also supports others in BC. There is also monthly raw vegan potlucks that happen, more info at: http://rawfood.meetup.com/372/
We also have gorilla foods, it's 100 percent raw vegan resturant in downtown area,there is truffle cafe on commercial drive, that is about half raw and have cooked food restaurant and quite a few other restaurants that are raw-friendly.
I'm in the Okanagan, right now. I've just recently moved here (for the university) so I don't know much about raw activity in the area. I know there used to be a raw restaurant here, but it closed down and now there isn't really any raw food places. If anyone knows of any raw foodists or activity here, let me know! It'd be great to meet up with someone here.
On the other hand, this entire area is absolutely amazing for fresh produce- everything is either orchard or garden, and there are fruit stands lining the roads wherever you go- honestly, it's crazy how much locally grown stuff there is available right now. Obviously it'll slow down in the winter, but there are enough produce markets around that I don't think the fresh stuff will disappear completely.
But yeah- anyone around the Okanagan area?
I'm a Torontonian, but I moved to Windsor several years ago to live with my BF, who works in Detroit. Windsor is pretty lame for restaurants, period. There is one restaurant here which does a mix of vegetarian and vegan food, plus one or two meat items (for non-veg family members and friends, presumably). Interestingly, I noticed that they feature a living foods raw chef one night a week, so maybe this little city is evolving, slowly. As for Toronto, the resources for organic and raw items are far better. There are raw classes and although there are only two raw restaurants right now, there are a handful more veg restaurants that do some raw stuff. I'm sure you'll find that B.C. is more progressive with regards to the raw lifestyle, but don't rule out any other part of the country. As long as you are in or near a decent-sized city, you can find plenty of great produce and organic stuff. Online shopping has made hard-to-find items a whole lot easier.

Re: Basic FX59xxx bios changes
I've used PCI slot fans and found them to be very good for removing hot air from around the graphics card ! If I read the link correctly however, the Spectrum fan card is more about blowing air directly at and around your graphics card ! But under the circumstances, is no bad thing when you are overclocking !
I don't use any type of PCI slot card at the moment, just because I have 2 fans sucking in at front, 1 fan sucking in at side over CPU and 5900 card, and 2 fans blowing out at the rear ! And I suppose you could also say a PSU with 3 temp controlled fans also blowing some air out at rear ! But as it is a quiet stealth PSU, I don't really expect it to contribute much to case cooling ?
At the moment, I only have commercial filters on the two front fans, which are not that efficient ----> too much air loss for filtration given ! Maybe I'll need to try your pantyhose technique on my front and side mounted fans ? And if we are grading pantyhose, then what denier grade are you using ? Or do you just use any you find lying around ? lol

Course Details
Rule by Law in China: An Advanced Seminar
This course will take a comparative law approach in discussing the development of legal discourse, and the ever increasing influence of Western jurisprudence, in modern and contemporary China. We will discuss at length the formation of "Rule by Law" as a "grand narrative" in its historical context, the controversy around different interpretations of "Human Rights," and the burgeoning civil rights movements in the Mainland.
The course begins with study of legal traditions and core assumptions underlying the role of law in China, followed by comparative analysis of respective legal conventions and beliefs in China and in Western countries. One full session will be devoted to the legal system of the People's Republic of China, looking at the law promulgated in the 1950s, the abolishment of the legal system during the years of the Cultural Revolution, the renewed emphasis on codification of law since 1979, new areas and issues after China's accession to the WTO, and the recent environmental law and civil rights movements. The seminar will introduce contemporary legal and political institutions, the law-making process, interpretation and implementation of law, dispute resolution, and public awareness of and attitudes toward law. The seminar will examine in detail contemporary China's approach to human rights law, focusing on how Chinese authorities and academia interpret and address key principles and doctrines of international human rights law, including the following specific issues: 1) the traditional relationship of the individual to the state; 2) rule by law vs. rule of law; 3) judicial independence and judicial integrity; and 4) due process.

Washington Wildflowers
500 - 1,000 downloadsAdd this app to your lists
+ By High Country Apps, LLC
The number of species covered and wealth of information included sets a new standard for wildflower identification apps. Though primarily designed for amateur enthusiasts, the breadth of content in WASHINGTON WILDFLOWERS also makes it appealing to more experienced botanists. Users can browse the species list by common or scientific name (and even by family!) to locate a plant and access the related information. However, most users will want to rely on the easy-to-use search key to accurately identify plants of interest.
The key's interface is broken down into nine simple categories: growth habit (e.g., wildflower, shrub, vine), flower color, month of year, geographic region, habitat, leaf arrangement, leaf type, duration (annual, biennial, perennial), and origin (native or introduced). Select choices in as many or as few categories as you wish. As you do so, the number of species found is displayed at the top of the page. Once done selecting, the click of a button returns a list of thumbnail images and names for potential matches. Users scroll among the species on the list and tap a thumbnail image to access additional photos, descriptions, and range maps.
WASHINGTON WILDFLOWERS includes supporting documents with extensive information on the ecoregions of Washington, descriptions of habitats found across the state, wildflower destinations with best time to visit, insights into how the climate influences the plant communities found here, as well as detailed instructions on how to use the app. Users will also find an extensive glossary of botanical terms, along with labeled diagrams of leaves, flowers, and inflorescences. Finally, detailed descriptions can be found for each family contained in WASHINGTON WILDFLOWERS. Tapping on a family name brings up a list of images and names for all species in the app belonging to that family.
Washington and its adjacent areas are home to diverse landscapes containing a wealth of wildflowers, shrubs, and vines. WASHINGTON WILDFLOWERS will appeal to individuals of all ages who travel to such areas and are interested in knowing the names and natural history of the plants that they encounter. WASHINGTON WILDFLOWERS is also a great educational tool for learning more about plant communities, botanical terms, and how to identify plants in general. A portion of revenues from the app supports conservation and botanical exploration in the region.

Blood is thicker than water
In his Hollywood directorial debut, Chan-Wook Park deconstructs the American gothic thriller and presents the mandatory elements of the hackneyed genre in fresh, compelling ways.
Nicole Kidman, Mia Wasikowska, Matthew Goode, Jacki Weaver and Dermot Mulroney navigate "Stoker's" moral contradictions with mutedly claustrophobic intensity, but the Korean director of the Cannes-winning "Oldboy" never allows his actors to go off the thespic rails.
Given the fact that the 49-year-old auteur only decided to pursue filmmaking after watching "Vertigo," Park's Hitchcockian sensibility and smolder aren't surprising. If you're familiar with his cinematic oeuvre—from his so-called "Vengeance" trilogy ("Sympathy for Mr Vengeance," "Oldboy" and "Lady Vengeance") to 2009's award-winning "Thirst"—it won't surprise you when Park lets his characters use a pair of scissors to shake viewers out of their apathy. "Stoker" is no exception.
Contentious issues
As he explains, "I don't enjoy watching films that evoke passivity. If you need that kind of comfort, I don't understand why you wouldn't go to a spa, instead." But, relaxing in a spa will be the last thing on your mind when you watch how the contentious issues of a dysfunctional family unravel after Richard Stoker (Mulroney) succumbs in a baffling car accident, leaving his vulnerable wife, Evelyn (Kidman), and distant daughter, India (Wasikowska), behind.
Evie and India's corrosive relationship takes another beating when mysterious Uncle Charlie (the dashing Goode), whom India never knew existed, comes to town and lives with them. But, the devilishly handsome gent's arrival sets off tragic events that escalate after a number of red herrings—identical pairs of shoes, a birthday key—lead India to a stack of undelivered letters that contain disturbing revelations about her doting father's seldom-discussed siblings!
As sinister as it is "dangerously" sexy, the perfectly calibrated production's unsettling mood will keep you guessing as the murky atmosphere it's anchored on simmers with a looming sense of danger. As Park steers his film into riskier territory, it overcomes occasional incoherence (Weaver, who plays the nervous Aunt Gwen, inexplicably checks into a rundown pension house) by hooking viewers with its narrative's jagged but self-assured trajectory.
As evinced by the provocative portrayals of Goode, Wasikowska and Kidman, blood is thicker than water, indeed—but, would you love your family any less if their imperfections and calculated indiscretions threaten to overwhelm their good traits?

When I build models I try to go for the lowest poly count that I can squeeze out of it and I use normal maps to fill in the detail. Also there are also a lot of source code examples for implementing other techniques for enhancing detail such as parallax mapping, relief mapping, cone-step mapping, etc...
These methods alter a models texture map coordinates to simulate how a raised surface will travel farther along an arc than a lower surface would. A surface further from the pivot travels a greater distance, to achieve this effect, parallax mapping moves the texture map coordinates further where the height map is "higher".
This technology even runs on mobile devices very well under OpenGL ES 2.0. With all the open source available it's pretty much in the hands of everyone now.
If the game is set up to do this then you really only have to concern yourself with the silhouette of the model since techniques that use textures to enhance a model tend to only break down at the model's edges where the surface angle is steep.
You could also make multiple versions of the same model at various levels of detail,
In layer 1, you could have the lowest resolution model,
In layer 2, a medium detail model,
In layer 3, a model that is a bit excessive.
This technique will give you options for different requirements that people may have, and it will also give you an edge with games that can implement LOD.
The only real issue here would be keeping the texture map coordinates synced up between the various levels of detail, but Blender and xNormal both can do a pretty good job of projecting the surface normals of a high poly model onto the low poly model even though the high poly doesn't have texCoords assigned.
Maybe the modeling program you prefer to use also has this feature. In Blender it's activated using the "Selected to Active" checkbox found in the "bake" section.
Even if you don't use Blender for modeling you could still use it just for this feature since it's free.
If you really want to pack in the most detail possible than you really should consider mastering the art of "modeling" normal maps as well as height maps. They tend to work very well since texture map detail is not subject to aliasing in the same the way real geometry is.
Normal maps also tend to smooth out aliasing problems on real geometry at many view angles. Just not along the model silhouette.

The Philadelphia Inquirer Daniel Rubin Column
By Daniel Rubin, The Philadelphia Inquirer
Jul. 2–Forty minutes into his master class, Leonard Nelson Hubbard still hasn't picked up his bass.
Instead, he's pulling more pearls from his leather-bound journal, lessons learned from 15 years on the road with the Roots, the Grammy-winning Philadelphia hip-hop band he left last year.
If his audience has come expecting tales of big money and wild parties, that's not on today's program. What Hub wants to get across is something less sexy:
"Drugs and disease are waiting for you outside that door," he tells the young musicians sitting at his feet — 26 rapt students at the Settlement Music School's Germantown branch. "You can't play your show from a hospital bed."
He tells them that learning to read music is important. That to be a successful musician, one must be reliable. That the occasional shower is a good thing. Professionalism.
"You can be the best guitar player or keyboard player in the world, but if the man paying the money doesn't like you, you're never going to work."
It's old-head, eat-your-vegetables stuff he's laying on the kids in Nirvana T-shirts, backward caps and ragged jeans, players from the city and suburbs who are spending two weeks in the Summer Jam program at Settlement, where Hubbard, now in his 40s, studied while growing up in West Philadelphia.
A course, not just a class Settlement officials had invited him to conduct a master class. He surprised them by asking to teach the whole two weeks. So he has been coming every morning at 9, helping students set up, tune, and go over the pieces they'll be recording. Then go over them again.
Thick as his sound, Hubbard is 6 feet tall and well-muscled in a sleeveless T-shirt from the Roots' 2004 Tipping Point tour of Japan. He talks fast and furiously, his stories suggesting that he and self-doubt are unacquainted.
Like how at Carnegie Mellon, where he studied upright bass, he told his orchestra conductor that he didn't need to practice. "I was rude, but I was right."
Or how, when the Roots were nominated for the 2000 Grammy for best performance by a rap group, he wrote a speech because he knew he'd be called to give one. Backstage, he said: "It's about time in contemporary black music that someone gets an award who can actually play an instrument."
So why would he quit a wildly popular group? The road. It's hard on the body and soul. He tired of the 60-hotels-in-two-months drills, performing after 40 minutes of sleep.
Once it was a novelty for a hip-hop band to feature live musicians. "Now," he says, it's 'Been there, done that.' " He says he needed to write and produce, get his own songs out there.
"People don't know the extent of my musical ability," he says. "If I don't put it out there now, what am I waiting for?"
City of stars He tells the students they're at Settlement because they're talented, so they should cultivate their skills. Talent carries responsibility; after all, they are representing Philadelphia.
They need to learn the city's musical history — not just that jazz greats like John Coltrane lived here, but that people like Gamble and Huff worked here, producing so many hits.
"We're close to New York, but we have our own distinct vibe and sound."
Finally, it's time to play. He sets down his Fiji water and picks up his Fender jazz bass, its frets wearing smooth, the paint around the strap pin chipped from merciless banging on stage.
And he begins an astonishing solo. It's something he wrote a few years ago called "African Sunrise," gentle harmonics followed by propulsive slapping. He plays it loud, then soft, soothing, then raucous, straight, then synthesized, singing scat over the foundation.
Later I grab him and ask about the piece.
How would you describe what you played? I ask.
"Good," he answers and laughs.

How to Boil an Egg
Hard Boiled Eggs
Steps to Boiling an Egg
Boiling an egg sounds like the simplest of tasks, but even cooking experts disagree on the best method. This technique is practically foolproof--follow it, and you'll never end up with green-tinged eggs again.
Step 1
Gently place the egg in a saucepan. You can boil more than one egg at once, just be sure to set the eggs in a single layer.
Step 2
Add cold water to the saucepan until the water is 1 inch above the egg.
Step 3
Place the saucepan on a stove and bring the water to a full rolling boil. Don't go too far, it shouldn't take long.
Step 4
Remove from heat and let stand for 10 minutes. Set a timer to help you keep track.
Step 5
Transfer the egg from the pan to an ice bath and let it sit for 5 minutes. This will stop the cooking process so you don't end up with a tough egg.
Step 6
Let the egg cool before handling. Pat the egg dry and use as desired.

Hello everyone! I have created a new blog, with the intention of starting real honest conversation! I am a raw foodie, but I have had major struggles with my body and food. I feel like the best way to deal with what is going on with is is to have a safe place to vent. My blog is about how I feel, but more importantly I want it to be about how you feel. I want every one to get the theraputic benifits of honesty, which has been the thing that has helped me the most, with out the cost of an actual therapist. Come share with me! I want it to turn in to a place of conversation, with posts that reflect the wants of readers. Hopefully I will hear from you soon!
Thank you!

Four businesses to be inducted into EBE HOF Nov. 6Written by Sarah Ottney | Editor in Chief | email@example.com
Four area businesses will be inducted into this year's Entrepreneurial & Business Excellence Hall of Fame (EBE HOF) on Nov. 6.
Honored for business excellence will be American Broadband + Telecommunications, Hanson Inc. and The Oasis Restaurant & Delivery. Honored for excellence in family business will be Rima Manufacturing Company.
The EBE HOF recognizes outstanding entrepreneurs and business leaders who have built and sustained growing businesses and created jobs in the region, said Adam Davenport, EBE HOF chairman and president of Gorillas & Gazelles, founding sponsor of the event.
The companies will be inducted during a public ceremony Nov. 6 at The Pinnacle, 1772 Indian Wood Circle, Maumee. Networking will start at 5:30 p.m. with the first set of awards announced at 6:30 p.m. Cocktails and hors d'oeuvres will be served and a cash bar will be available. Tickets are $85.
The winner of the Davenport-Longenecker Lifetime Achievement Award will also be announced at the event.
The EBE HOF began as the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year program in 1989, brought to the area by Adam's father, Larry Davenport. In 2006, Gorillas & Gazelles founded the EBE HOF, which took over the inductions.
"It's the business event of the year," Larry said.
More than 700 people attended last year's induction ceremony and the event grows each year, Adam said.
"That proves and validates that we are doing something really great for the community and people need to know about the positive aspects going on in this area," he said.
Nominees come from businesses within about 60 miles of Toledo and winners are chosen by an independent panel of judges.
Starting last year for the 25th anniversary of the business awards, the EBE HOF started hosting speakers and other events throughout the year.
"Each year we get bigger and better and bring different ideas. There are a few things we have in the works this year that we hope are going to blow away the audience."
New this year is the formation of Women of EBE, a branch of the EBE HOF for female inductees as well as member spouses.

Stocks fall after weak reports on hiring, services
Wednesday - 4/3/2013, 11:51am EDT
AP Markets Writer
NEW YORK (AP) -- Stocks fell in early trading on Wall Street Wednesday after weak reports on hiring and growth at service companies dampened the outlook for the U.S. economy.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell 64 points, or 0.4 percent, to 14,595 as of 11:14 a.m. EDT. The Standard & Poor's 500 index dropped 10 points, or 0.7 percent, to 1,560 points. Both indexes closed at record highs the day before.
U.S. service companies kept growing at a solid pace in March, but the expansion was less than economists were expecting. The Institute for Supply Management's index of service companies fell to 54.4 from 56 a month earlier. The report was the weakest in seven months and fell short of what analysts were expecting.
Separately, payrolls processor ADP reported that U.S. employers added 158,000 jobs last month, down from February's gain of 237,000, as construction firms held off on hiring. The ADP report is often seen as a preview for the government's broader survey on employment, which is due out Friday.
The reports came after the ISM reported a slowdown in manufacturing on Monday, another poor omen for the economy.
"The economic data, which has been stronger than expected throughout most of the first quarter, may just be in for a little bit of a soft patch," said Stephen Parker, a portfolio manager at JPMorgan Private Bank. "But I think that's temporary."
The stock market has gotten off to a strong start in 2013, with both the Dow and the S&P 500 setting record highs. The Dow rose 11.3 percent in the first three months of the year thanks to a recovery in housing and signs that the job market is improving. Strong company earnings and economic stimulus from the Federal Reserve have also sent the market higher.
The yield on the 10-year Treasury note, which moves inversely to its price, fell from 1.86 percent to 1.83 percent.
In other trading, the Nasdaq composite dipped nine points, or 0.1 percent to 3,245. The Russell 2000, a gauge of small company stocks, fell more than other indexes. The Russell fell 9 points, or 1 percent, to 925.
The Dow Jones Transportation Average, an index of 20 stocks including airlines like Delta, United and freight companies FedEx and UPS, fell for a third straight day. The index, which is regarded as a leading indicator for the broader indexes and the direction of the economy, has fallen 3.4 percent this week, after surging 17.9 percent in the first quarter of the year.
"The strength that we've seen in transports over the last three months has been encouraging," said JPMorgan's Parker. "That's certainly one area we will be watching closely to see if there's a shift in sentiment going forward."
Among stocks making big moves;
-- Zynga rose 43 cents, or 14 percent, to $3.50 after the online game maker said two casino games would debut in the United Kingdom Wednesday.
-- Monsanto rose $1.20 to $104.7 after the agricultural products company said its profit increased 22 percent on strong sales of biotech seeds in Brazil and other emerging markets. The company also increased its forecast for full-year earnings.
-- ConAgra Foods fell 14 cents to $35.40 after the company reported a third-quarter profit that fell shy of Wall Street expectations. The maker of Chef Boyardee and Hebrew National hot dogs booked charges related to its acquisition of Ralcorp and struggled to increase sales for its existing brands.

This delivery was horrible. I have ordered several times before, and they were great. They changed buns, fries, etc. The burger was ordered medium well and it came medium rare, the fires were barely cooked and soggy, it was horrible. NEVER AGAIN!!

When I called back she just kept saying hello I to the phone like she couldn't hear me. WHYYYYY would somebody do that. To top it all off the food was greasy and cold. What a terrible experience.

Food is good and delivery is quick. However, DO NOT order a drink from them. You'll get an 8 oz plastic cup that has, at best, 6 oz of soda for $2.50. Definitely not worth it!

Lotto gives bakery helper a lot of dough
More News from Philippine Daily Inquirer
He is now an ex-bakery helper, having come into a lot of dough to put up his own bakery and be his own boss.
The Bulacan native and father of one was handed a check for P23.3 million at the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) headquarters in Pasay City on Monday after winning the top prize in the Aug. 1 Lotto 6/42 draw.
PCSO General Manager Jose Ferdinand Rojas II, who oversees the turnover of the lotto jackpot prizes, said the winner had told him that he had been playing lotto games twice a year since 2008.
In the Aug. 1 draw, the computer generated the numbers he had picked: 05-10-11-22-27-42.
He said he derived the combination from his and his wife's birth dates and other numbers he picked at random.
The winner planned to leave his job as bakery helper and put up his own bakery, Roxas said.
He said the winner had told him that he would share his winnings with his poor siblings and set aside a substantial portion for his child's future.

Get Your Groove On
Cultural encounters can seem intimidating. But there's more to music than hip-hop, beats, and the outrageous antics of Miley Cyrus. Classical compositions may be highbrow in theory, but they can be quite remarkable in execution.
This year's highly anticipated season finale of the Mainly Mozart Festival XX, produced by the lauded Miami Chamber Music Society, is no exception. It pairs three acclaimed musicians — Amit Peled (cello), Yi-Jia Susanne Hou (violin), and Marina Radiushina (piano) — with the renowned dancers of the Miami City Ballet and choreographer Adriana Pierce. They'll emphasize works rarely heard in South Florida, with this year's focus falling on pieces by Rachmaninoff, Dvorák, Ravel, and Bartók. There will also be a special performance — My Homeland, a world premiere conceived by Pierce.
Classical music aficionados have cause to celebrate, while novices can take this opportunity to expand their horizons with an appreciation for the arts.

Try some of the Sexiest Girls who perform hot private live webcam sex shows
It's trully amazing how much pleasure i can get in this virtual erotic world, i can't resist it. There is a big variety of adult videochat websites but the best is LiveJasmin. When i discovered Jasmin i got wowed, big surprise, pleasant one from many points of view. First of all i got impressed by their pictures.So big and so clear, i could swear those chicks are a few inches away from me,i could see their skin pores, their silky hair, every small detail, damn...so realistic , it turned me on instantly. That wasn't all, scrolling on the page with the profiles list i noticed a few chathosts for my taste, when i clicked on their pic i had the surprise to see a preview of their live video, dude...that is just awesome. The list was full of hottest videochat girls i have ever seen, never found so many hot ones on a single adult website. And to be able to see what they are doing right in that moment was more than i could expect. I played around peaking at several girls for a few minutes, they were all teasing and very friendly, not showing anything explicit though but after all thats understandable. I went straight to buy some credits and ready to start playing with one of those hot Livejasmin's chicks. When i came back with the credits she was in private show, damn...some other guy was faster than me. My second favourite girl as well, so i advice u guys, buy some credits first, then pick a favourite chick for your webcam show and jump straight in her private chatroom if you don't want to lose her and make privates for other Livejasmin members. Those girls are awesome entertainers and horny guys like me keep them always busy in adult private shows. If you got your favourite free, jump straight in, don't waste the time and chance!Fortunately there are so many amazing girls On LiveJasmin that you don't need a lot of time to find another hot one that get you started instantly, just watching her profile.I surfed a few more minutes among their girls category and i added several chathosts on my favourites list. Today i was very horny, since i haven't done this in a while, so i searched for quite a dirty girl, ready for any kinky stuff my immagination would come up with. Another excellent thing is that they have a very complete biography there, you can see all the things they can offer, toys, fetishes,outfits, what they are willing to do and whats their turns ons, everything. So you can pick exactly the right girl for your needs.

Sinn Fein president Gerry Adams has resigned from his Westminster seat.
The announcement came after Taoiseach Brian Cowen confirmed March 11 as the date for the Irish Republic's General Election.
Mr Adams had already stepped down from his West Belfast seat in the Northern Ireland Assembly.
He had also pledged to resign as Westminster representative for the same constituency when a poll was confirmed south of the Irish border.
A party spokesman said the process had now started and confirmed Mr Adams had written to Westminster to formally resign.
The Sinn Fein president will now stand for the Republic's Dail parliament in the border area of Louth.
Mr Adams's move comes as his all-Ireland party hopes to make gains in the south.
He was replaced at the Assembly by former IRA hunger striker Pat Sheehan.
The party will now select a candidate to defend his west Belfast Westminster seat.
Sinn Fein refuses to take seats in the House of Commons, but Mr Adams hopes he will soon be sitting in the Dail alongside party colleagues.

Free cloud access to IBM Power servers for Linux Developers
Free IBM Cloud Platform for developers…yeah, that's a big deal. That platform being based on the latest IBM POWER7 and POWER7+ processor-based servers running Linux, AIX and IBM i operating systems…very big deal indeed!
Big Blue has just announced the IBM Power Development Platform (PDP) which will allow no-charge access, via cloud, to Power Systems servers for building, porting and testing applications. The thought behind it is that Linux developers will be especially interested because most of them need more powerful, more modern servers that can handle the new wave of open, collaborative apps built for Big Data, mobile and social business computing.
The PDP offers users access to the same Power platform that, together with Linux, powers IBM's Watson and includes a new Linux porting image with IBM DB2 10.x, IBM WebSphere 8.5.5, and the latest Linux development tools for Power.
"The new era of computing upon us requires more from technology infrastructure -- faster insights, greater efficiency, tighter collaboration," said Doug Balog, General Manager of IBM Power Systems. "Now more than ever we're seeing a lot of new, exciting things being done on the Power platform. Our new development cloud will serve as a springboard for innovation from a talented development community. Providing cloud access to Power accelerates the development of applications that deliver even greater business value to our clients."
The Power Development Platform evolved from IBM's Virtual Loaner Program which allowed limited access to Power Systems technology. After feedback,program especially from the Linux community, IBM dramatically overhauled that program including substantially increased capacity, additional Linux development tools, improved reservation navigation and deeper social media integration to provide users with more news and information. You can access the cloud-based Power Development Platform through IBM's PartnerWorld program at www.ibm.com/partnerworld/pdp. We'd love to hear your feedback on it.

A.M. Best Assigns Ratings to Fairfax Financial Holdings Ltd.'s New Shelf Registration Business Wire OLDWICK, N.J. -- January 8, 2013 A.M. Best Co. has assigned indicative ratings of "bbb" on senior unsecured debt, 'bbb-" on subordinated debt and "bb+" on preferred shares to the recently filed universal short form base shelf prospectus of Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited (Fairfax) (Toronto) [TSX: FFH]. The outlook assigned to these ratings is stable. The new shelf registration replaces Fairfax's previous shelf, which has expired. Consequently, the indicative ratings for the previous shelf registration have been withdrawn. All existing ratings for Fairfax and its subsidiaries are unchanged. At September 30, 2012, Fairfax's adjusted debt-to-total capital ratio was calculated at approximately 30%. In the mid-term, Fairfax's financial leverage and coverage ratios are expected to remain within A.M. Best's guidelines for its current ratings. These calculations include the debt of wholly owned subsidiaries, which are capable of servicing their own debt. In addition, Fairfax had cash and investments of approximately $1 billion at September 30, 2012. The methodology used in determining these ratings is Best's Credit Rating Methodology, which provides a comprehensive explanation of A.M. Best's rating process and contains the different rating criteria employed in the rating process. Best's Credit Rating Methodology can be found at www.ambest.com/ratings/methodology. Founded in 1899, A.M. Best Company is the world's oldest and most authoritative insurance rating and information source. For more information, visit www.ambest.com. Copyright © 2013 by A.M.

For the second year in a row, "Iron Man" Robert Downey Jr. tops the Forbes annual list of highest earning actors with an estimated $75 million since June 2013, the same amount that Forbes estimated the year before.
Downey Jr.'s "Iron Man 3" crossed the billion dollar threshold in 2013. His turn in Jon Favreau's "Chef" was more of a favor than a moneymaker, but he also appears the mystery drama "The Judge," opening Oct. 13.
Downey Jr. received notable press for holding out on his contract for upcoming sequel "The Avengers: Age of Ultron" due to salary concerns. Though he has agreed to star in both "Age of Ultron" and an upcoming "The Avengers 3," neither role has been confirmed.
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is the only other actor from last year's Forbes top five to make this year's top five again, placing second with $52 million. Johnson will star in "Hercules,"opening Friday, as well as "Fast & Furious 7" and disaster film "San Andreas" next year.
Bradley Cooper, who voices Rocket Raccoon in Marvel's next feature "Guardians of the Galaxy," places third with $46 million. Cooper received his second Academy Award nomination this year for his work in David O. Russell's "American Hustle."
Leonardo DiCaprio, who placed sixth on Forbes list last year, places fourth this year with $39 million. DiCaprio had box office success starring in "The Great Gatsby" and "The Wolf of Wall Street" last year, the latter earning him his fourth Academy Award nom.
Downey Jr.'s fellow Avenger Chris Hemsworth places fifth this year with $37 million. Hemsworth found commercial success in his second solo outing "Thor: The Dark World" last year, and will reprise the role for "The Avengers: Age of Ultron."
Forbes says it compiles its salary figures based on talks with agents, producers, lawyers and others to calculate how much each actor earned from entertainment-related work from June 2013 to June 2014.
The complete top 10:
1. Robert Downey Jr. - $75 million
2. Dwayne Johnson - $52 million
3. Bradley Cooper - $46 million
4. Leonardo DiCaprio - $39 million
5. Chris Hemsworth - $37 million
6. Liam Neeson - $36 million
7. Ben Affleck - $35 million
8. Christian Bale - $35 million
9. Will Smith - $32 million
10. Mark Wahlberg - $32 million

|Starting this season, unsportsmanlike acts like this one could erase points off the scoreboard. (US Presswire)
When it happens, blame the coaches.
It's on them when LSU's fourth-quarter, go-ahead touchdown at Alabama on Nov. 5 is flagged because Spencer Ware waved the ball in Mark Barron's face at the 10.
That impending riot at the Texas State Fair? Caused by Longhorns fans gone wild when Garrett Gilbert's game-winning naked bootleg run against Oklahoma doesn't count because Texas' quarterback woofed at a defender on his way in.

Just remember, all -- or any version -- is on the 120 Football Bowl Subdivision coaches.
They're the ones who after the 2009 season saw fit to fundamentally alter the game with a rule change that goes into effect next week when the regular season kicks off. Taunting fouls occurring in the field of play during scoring plays no longer are considered dead-ball penalties. In fact, they don't count as scoring plays.
Forget the 15 yards applied on the extra point or the ensuing kickoff. Starting this season, after such unsportsmanlike acts there will be the same, old flag. The ball will be moved back 15 yards but also ... the points will be taken off the board.
The question is, will there be a Richter Scale sturdy enough to measure the reaction when the new rule just happens to impact the likes of LSU and/or Texas?
"If you don't want to put yourself at risk," warned Big 12 coordinator of football officials Walt Anderson, "don't do stupid acts."
And you can't fix stupid, or the inherent problem with everything unsportsmanlike in football: A penalty is in the eyes of the flag holder. Anderson and his peers are united in trying to take the sting out of this ultimate judgment call. They say they will give players every benefit of the doubt.
Short of someone pulling out a Sharpie, it seems like they aren't going to call it.
"I want your mother who's at home on the couch to say, 'Oh my gosh, that happened on the 20-yard line. You're not going to get that score,'" Anderson said.
That still doesn't remove the human element. Officials are going to be the ones to determine whether it's a desperate dive into the end zone or the Nestea Plunge.
Do we really want officials to be emotion police? The coaches have answered with a resounding yes by pushing their sportsmanship agenda in recent years.
That's not necessarily a bad thing. It is a bit hypocritical considering the profession's stabs at morality lately. Excuse us if we don't trust coaches with the whole right/wrong thing at the moment.
Sooner or later, one coach or another will have kittens the first time a score is taken away. And they will have no right. All they have to do is look in the mirror. They wanted this.
The rule evolved from the old gum-flapping heyday of Miami. Former national officiating coordinator Dave Parry said that things started to change after the infamous 1991 Cotton Bowl. The Canes woofed their way to a 46-3 win over Texas despite getting flagged 16 times for 202 yards.
Those Hurricanes set the taunting standard. It was fun to watch, but times have changed.
"Keep running," Miami coach Al Golden said earlier this year. "If we get points taken off the board because we're celebrating, keep running."
The implication long before Nevin Shapiro's alleged actions had anything to do with player eligibility: You're off the team.
Understandably, the list of unsportsmanlike acts have increased in the NCAA rulebook since Miami's carefree days of camouflage:
Obscene language now shares space with pointing the fingers which is part of taunting...baiting ...and ridiculing an opponent verbally that can always lead to the ever-popular simulating the firing of a weapon.
"I've always believed in a passionate team," Golden added. "But there's a real simple solution to that. Go find your teammates and don't call attention to yourself. John Wooden used to say, 'It takes 10 hands to score a basket.' It takes 22 hands to score a touchdown."
Some version of that belief will be passed on in those 120 locker rooms this month. While the coaching profession continues to run wild in the streets, it's up to those same coaches to convince players not to run too wild on the field.
"The coaches, I don't know how they're going to feel on Saturday afternoons in the fall," said Steve Shaw, the SEC's new coordinator of officials. "The coaches on the rules committee were pretty insistent."
Actually, the overwhelming majority of coaches nationally were insistent. We wouldn't be here if coaches hadn't reacted as one in the annual rules survey, according to an NCAA official. Their support of the rule change was then reviewed at the annual American Football Coaches Association of America convention. A 35-member AFCA rules committee then passed it up to the NCAA rules committee, itself comprised mostly of coaches.
After a review of an NCAA oversight group it was passed in the spring of 2010. If you have any problems this season, take them to Maryland's Randy Edsall, former Oregon coach Mike Bellotti and Wisconsin AD Barry Alvarez. They were the FBS component of the NCAA rules committee that pushed through this change.
"The truth of the matter is there is not one official who has ever, ever been involved in a rule change," said Doug Rhoads, the ACC coordinator of football officials. "The coaches did want this out of the game. In a way, I do applaud them."
In another way, it puts added pressure on officials who will be asked to interpret intent, will and the sometimes inexplicable mood swings of the average 19-year-old. Is that any way to decide a major-college football game, conference race or, possibly, a national title?
"When you get excited, your adrenaline starts going," said one of the key figures in the rule change. "I'm not saying you should run down the line and kick the ball in the stands. But if you popped up and showed a little bit of excitement, it should be OK."
That's Oklahoma State receiver Justin Blackmon, whose Alamo Bowl touchdown (:59 mark) has been featured in the preseason, demonstrating to players nationwide what not to do when coasting free for a score. At the end of a long catch and run against Arizona, Blackmon ran horizontal to the goal line for several yards before scoring.
Before his death earlier this year, Parry promised Blackmon's touchdown would make the lowlight reel of examples of what not to do this season.
"It was just something that happened," said Blackmon, an All-American. "I looked back and saw no one was close so I said, 'Why not? It's the bowl game.'"
When it comes down to it, Anderson says he expects scores to be taken off the board six to 12 times this season.
"Heck, it wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility that it might happen half a dozen times in Week 1.
"Over time, just like a lot of rules, they'll get the message."
Yes, but what is that message? Is it turning the college game into Robot Ball? Is sportsmanship dead? What's wrong with a Nestea Plunge between friends?
Ask the coaches. They seem to have everything under control.
Or maybe not.
