Ultherapy Done at Dr. Hankins and Sohn in Las Vegas - Las Vegas, NV

My face after 4 weeks was tighter and the skin did not sag at all anymore. I had a few lines or wrinkles that are gone too. The second treatment I am about a a... READ MORE

Alvin was to be my second child's name! Well, I was extremely excited striking the natural balance of two lionesses and 2 lions in the house. It is for this reason that I decided to throw him a baby shower and different from the first time; a boy's. Since boys are huge fans of animals, we decided to have our theme as frogs, bears, and puppy dogs. This theme, green and brown, was among the numerous baby shower ideas that characterized the soon to be Alvin's bedroom colors. I also spiced up the place with frogs, teddy bears, and dogs on top of cute stationary.
Birthday Invitations
With the help of my baby daddy, we drafted and printed up all the necessary baby shower party information, stuffed it in matching envelopes, and closed them with matching stickers. These did not eat up substantial funds as I used simple and readily affordable paper. I used an occasional table to craft a sign in table where I also placed 'WELCOME' cards inside envelopes and had one family member writing down their address information on the envelope .
This was a low profile baby shower. By that I mean that all the baby shower ideas revolved around a small budget; I did not want to host an extravagant party yet more was to come after my prince's birthday. For that reason, my decorations consisted of brown alpha stickers consisting of singular letters stuck on the belly of each frog and teddy bear. Additionally, I knew boys are fans of nature, thus I collected some clothespins and clipped foams cut out to the ribbon to craft a banner that I hung between to candelabras to give it the impression of an island. I saw it necessary to include dozens of balloons as they never fail in making a party lively; a baby shower being no exception. I also scattered confetti all over my artificial island, counter tops, and tables. For the gift box, I had created a carton with several teddy bears spelling the name 'GIFT BOX'.
Food and Drinks
I took time to seek baby shower ides about the most matching drinks and snacks for a baby shower. Since it was a warm day, ice cream was a priority. Champagne and various juice flavors filled the tables. I also designed animal like muffins, and a big cake symbolizing a happily pregnant woman almost due; for the sober reason that unborn boys are normally a burden in the womb (on a lighter note).
Games and Activities
There were endless baby shower games and activities. The diaper game was the most enjoyable where I melt candy inside a diaper and the guests were given the task of determining what kind of candy it is. We had two more games like baby naming and hide and seek which saw guests get jovial.
Party Favors
The baby shower party favors were green and cream gift bags a floral print or striped print; each containing coconut lime lotion and shower gel inside a mini purse. There was also a plastic magnetic picture frame engraved the words 'thank you'.

BOISE -- Boise National Forest officials say a section of the North Fork Boise River Road, Forest Road 327, is closed due to a river washout at mile post 30.
The road is used during the summer months for easier access from Highway 21 to the Middle Fork Boise River and Atlanta.
The prime alternate route is the Middle Fork Boise River Road.
A secondary alternate route is Forest Road 348 to its junction with Forest Road 327, which connects to the Middle Fork Boise River Road. That road is rough and not safe for passenger vehicles, or trailers.
The road surface at the washout is less than two feet wide. It is about 40 miles east of Boise in Boise County.
Repairs cannot be made until the river recedes and required fishery consultation is completed. Because of changes in river flow, the new road will moved to a rock outcropping adjacent to the old road.

Aging variation poses a serious problem to automatic face recognition systems. Most of the face recognition studies that have addressed the aging problem are focused on age estimation or aging simulation. Designing an appropriate feature representation and an effective matching framework for age invariant face recognition remains an open problem. In this paper, we propose a discriminative model to address face matching in the presence of age variation. In this framework, we first represent each face by designing a densely sampled local feature description scheme, in which scale invariant feature transform (SIFT) and multi-scale local binary patterns (MLBP) serve as the local descriptors. By densely sampling the two kinds of local descriptors from the entire facial image, sufficient discriminatory information, including the distribution of the edge direction in the face image (that is expected to be age invariant) can be extracted for further analysis. Since both SIFT-based local features and MLBP-based local features span a high-dimensional feature space, to avoid the overfitting problem, we develop an algorithm, called multi-feature discriminant analysis (MFDA) to process these two local feature spaces in a unified framework. The MFDA is an extension and improvement of the LDA using multiple features combined with two different random sampling methods in feature and sample space. By random sampling the training set as well as the feature space, multiple LDA-based classifiers are constructed and then combined to generate a robust decision via a fusion rule. Experimental results show that our approach outperforms a state-of-the-art commercial face recognition engine on two public domain face aging data sets: MORPH and FG-NET. We also compare the performance of the proposed discriminative model with a generative aging model. A fusion of discriminative and generative models further improves the face matching accuracy in the presence of aging.

This cracked me up...funniest thing I heard in a while....
On a different forum I heard Sarah Palin referred to as...:excited001:
Caribou Barbie?! Now that is the funniest thing I've heard in a loooong time!
I watched the Michael Phelps episode of SNL last night. LOVED that opening segment. Never a truer word as said in jest - Hillary will go mad if Palin gets in. I expect her to be very prominent in the last four weeks or so of campaigning.
If anyone else saw this... Was Phelps the final member of the home school team on quiz bowl? He was quite funny...
So. McCain's proposed new debate schedule would basically cancel the VP debate. How... convenient...
So theres a political body of 435 people trying to 'fix' your economy. McCain is NOWHERE near the top of that chain of command, but is 'so busy' he can't campaign or have adverts running? Doesn't everyone have phones and computers to keep in touch with these sort of things? He is ONE person. He gets ONE vote. IF he were president, he'd be asked to deal with stuff like this and numerous other agendas at once. How will he manage then?
Why didn't he propose to swap the debates around, so Palin and Biden debated this week? Does she really need MORE time? Didn't McCain say just last week (AFTER the crisis began) that the fundamentals of the economy were sound?
I'm glad Obama is going to the debate. He should invite Bob Barr instead.
You don't think giving millions of potential undecided voters a chance to get their first real glimpse of how the guy that's gonna run your country for the next few years ISN'T putting country first?
I'm sorry. I know theres a fair few republicans on here. And Im never gonna berate anyone for having an opinion, or liking someone. I just wish the McCain campaign would stop just throwing stuff at the wall to see what sticks. It's taking all the fun out of picking on them. It's not fun anymore, because they're so guilty. Its like throwing darts at jell-o. There are no satisfying hits!
I know I have said that I would not return to this discussion but here I am again...not to discuss anything political but to discuss friendship.
Some people are getting upset about things being said here. I know that there are PLENTY of message boards for this particular sort of thing. Debating is great..in the right conditions.
I have always believed that there are 2 things you should never discuss with friends...Politics and religion...I know we all have rights to discuss what we want and to have our own opinions...sometimes it is best to step away and think about what you are saying.
I usually do not care what anyone talks about but when my friends are getting upset and hurt I am right there to defend them.
Me too, it's really hard to be here (the forum), and not be here(this thread). I've avoided this area for a while, until I got that message from a friend. I thought if I didn't read this then you guys can do your thing and it's all cool. Then I hear from others, and I get a bit hmmmmm... I totally agree with you Sarah...totally. Iknow..this was a bit not clear...but then ... well...

Approval from the wife? How about no?Not trolling, legitimate question. No offense is meant to anyone at all.
Let me get this out of the way first and foremost - I'm not married. I'm involved with a wonderful woman who's a definite keeper, and someday who knows....maybe we too will walk down the isle....but for anyone who cares, given the subject matter, I myself am not yet married.
Which brings me to my question -
Why on earth do so many people here state that they need "permission" from their wives to purchase something? It doesn't matter if it's $10 or $1000, it's the very concept that both bothers yet intrigues me. Are you under 18? Are you not capable of exercising good judgement on your own behalf? Are you really worried that your wife is going to be "upset" because you choose to make a purchase for yourself with your own money? ...as though such a notion is somehow selfish or disrespectful?
Granted I know that most couples do have a joint bank account, it's also exceedingly common for both individuals to also have their own account as well, to use / spend as they please. And there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. As long as everyone's financial priorities are in tact and all the households bills and expenses are paid, do it to it.
Now if you're living at or below the poverty line, or just barely getting by paycheck to paycheck....and you both share a sole joint account and that's it.....I can see why ones wife would freak out if their husband felt he suddenly needed a 92" television. Such a thing is clearly a want, not a need - and not a priority. Especially when finances are tight. My question isn't about them, or for them. It's essentially for those who are doing well, financially speaking, who still feel they need to ask for their partners permission to purchase something for themselves.
Hypothetical situation - I'm married and share a joint account with my wife, which we both contribute to evenly. We also have our own accounts to use as we please. The way I see it, I can blow my disposable income on all the tv's, dslr's, and other toys as I wish....just as she has the right to purchase whatever she chooses with her own individual income. She has the right to question if I really "need" another tv or another camera, just as I have the right to question if she really "needs" another pair of shoes. But the fact of the matter is that if all the bills are paid and we're comfortable, and the joint account covers everything, why does anyone feel they have to the right to tell their significant other how they can or cannot spend their own money? This aspect goes for both genders.
I've pondered this issue ever since I first joined slickdeals six years ago, but I've noticed an alarmingly high number of "the wife is going to kill me" posts as of late, which makes sense I suppose given the time of year. Still....I can't help but feel that if you legitimately feel that your wife is going to kill you - i.e, be incredibly upset with your purchase, that odds are that the reason she's likely going to be so upset is because you full well know that perhaps you shouldn't have made the purchase based on a lackluster financial situation. That said, if that's not the case and your finances are in order, what's the problem?
You probably shouldn't get married.
Join SPAST today. Or else.

"When I was 5 years old, my mom always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down happy. They told me I didn't understand the assignment and I told them they didn't understand life."

You all seem to be missing the point.....I would never be controlling with someone else in the form of telling them how to spend their own money. That would be incredibly disrespectful. That's why I don't see why so many here allow their wives to dictate what they can or cannot do with their own money. I'm not talking about joint bank accounts. I'm referring to individual income. That shouldn't go away just because you're married. You don't need to share everything. And when it comes to sharing finances, that's what a joint account is for.
When you get married you share one anothers things, but I've never subscribed to the whole "what's mine is yours and what's yours is mine". My camera doesn't become "our" camera, just as her car doesn't become mine. We share, but still have the right to consider certain things as our own.
I'd especially like to hear from female slickdealers. I have a hunch you would offer up the insight I'm after. I'm going to bow out of this thread and see where it goes rather than monitor it and continually defend my post from those who feel I shouldn't get married. =/
For what it's worth it was worth all the while
Because your hypothetical situation very rarely exists...
There are quite a few one income households and don't forget a lot of married couples that have children. Its not common to see a 2 income family who have no children, own their own homes, have no debt and should be out blowing money. Most people have to watch their wallet today.
Like I said, the normal is not your "hypothetical" situation. But good luck with that. I'm sure most in that situation wouldn't care either.
I try to get my wife's permission, but if she doesn't give it and it's still something I want that doesn't cause financial issues, I buy/do it anyway. Now, IF I used the money that's needed to pay a bill, or something like that, and it affects the family badly, that's a bit different. I make SURE those obligations on my part are paid for FIRST.
A husband that spends money on something personal that causes financial hardship to the family without his wife's permission first, is WRONG.
I don't want dh to buy a sports car. I'm sure one day he'll buy one but at least my nagging is putting that off. Main reason I'm against it is because he's never home to drive it.
I buy stuff all the time without asking and so does he. We do discuss the big purchases. He hates that I do botox but he can get over it.

I have no money that is "just mine" and she has no money that is "just hers". All of our money is both of ours, so if I want to buy a game for $10 or a gun for $1k, it goes through her. Same way she asks me if she can spend $10 on dinner with a friend or more $$ on something larger.

Review by:
Coral Russell
on Feb. 18, 2013 :
These are short stories and the overall collection is short so you can finish it in a day, easy. These are poignant, coming-of-age stories that focus on a pivotal moment in the life of each character. There is a touch of magic interwoven in the stories almost in passing, if you blink, you'll miss it. This is a new author with excerpts to coming works which can also be found on Smashwords.

CHENNAI: A woman who tried to cheat a couple by attempting to sell fake jewellery was arrested on Thursday.
Police said the accused, B. Kuppammal (45) of Katpadi, had approached Shanthi (34) of Tiruvottiyur and her husband Kumar (40) and offered to sell a five-sovereign gold chain. Suspecting foul play, Kumar alerted the police control room.
Within minutes, the Royapuram police reached the scene and arrested Kuppammal, who was also in possession of 12 coins that looked like gold.

April 9 is the date that the Dallas Stars and Columbus Blue Jackets will resume play in a March 10 game that was suspended by a medical emergency involving Stars player Rich Peverley.
Columbus was leading 1-0 when that contest at the American Airlines Center in Dallas was halted at 6:23 in the first period.
The NHL announced Sunday that the March 10 game will be played in Dallas at 7:30 p.m. and will begin with the Blue Jackets retaining their 1-0 lead. The teams, however, will play for a full 60 minutes.
The league said it mirrored its decision on what happened following another medical emergency at a game in 2005 between the Detroit Red Wings and the Nashville Predators.
April 9 was originally the first of a two-day stretch with no games on the schedule for the Stars. They will be at home on April 8 to play the Predators and again on April 11 for the final regular season home game against the St. Louis Blues.
The Stars' regular season ends on Sunday, April 13 with a game in Phoenix against the Coyotes.
Dallas is hoping to remain among the top 8 teams in the Western Conference to earn a spot in the Stanley Cup playoffs for the first time in five long seasons.

Tablet. Hotels for Global Nomads
Travel Better.
Tablet Plus
Viceroy New York
120 W. 57th Street , New York City, NY, USA
Neighborhood: Manhattan - Midtown West
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
If you're hoping to establish yourself in the ultra-competitive New York hotel market, you'd better be sure you make a big splash. It's apparent from street level that the Viceroy hotel group has taken this principle to heart. Their first offering in the city, the sensibly named Viceroy New York, towers over 57th Street, in Midtown just south of Central Park. It certainly isn't shying away from the spotlight — and with an exterior that radiates moody industrial cool and interiors by local hospitality design geniuses Roman & Williams, it's got the substance to back it up.
Thanks to a fortuitous gap in the Midtown skyline, it's also got park views, from the higher floors, at least — and no matter where you are in the building, your room is easy on the eye. A warm retro-inspired palette and a dedication to the simple forms of modernism result in spaces that feel both reassuringly classic and inspiringly fresh. Space is plentiful, and is made to seem even more so by some clever layouts and wall-spanning windows. And it's the details that so often separate the major players from the corner-cutters; not to get all Patrick Bateman on you, but linens by Sferra, bath products by Neil George and sound systems by the illustrious Dr. Dre are a clear statement of high-end intent.
A hotel like this needs to make a gastronomic impression as well. To that end, they've opened Kingside, a restaurant/bar collaboration between chef Marc Murphy and cocktail wizard Scott Gerber. And then there's another New York essential, a stylish rooftop bar. Designed to evoke the glamour of an old-fashioned luxury airliner, the Roof features dishes and drinks from Kingside, as well as soaring views of Central Park.

What I liked:
Very well considered room (small but that's to be expected in NYC) with multiple hooks in the bathroom, plenty of outlets, free wifi. In essence, if you wanted/needed it... it was there.
What the hotel could do better:
Nothing, had a wonderful stay!

- Seth
- Stayed February 2015
- Rating: Good
What I liked:
The location of the hotel is convenient to a lot that Midtown has to offer. The rooms are unique in style and comfort. The bar was lively and the cocktails good. The service was very accommodating and pleasant. Would definitely stay here again if travelling alone (the rooms are small, as is normal in NYC).
What the hotel could do better:
Other reviews are accurate regarding (1) the temperature of the rooms, the heater just couldn't keep up and I couldn't get the room that warm (though it was extremely cold outside) and (2) the TV system just doesn't work that well (HBO/Showtime were never available on my TV for some reason, the reset of the interface is a bit wonky).

Earth Day Poems: Earth Day is celebrated on April 22 and this is a perfect opportunity for your students to write an acrostic poem with an environmental theme.
The first Earth Day, on April 22, 1970, is widely credited with launching the modern environmental movement. In the United States, the passage of the landmark Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, Endangered Species Act and many other groundbreaking environmental laws soon followed.
Today, Earth Day is celebrated in more than 192 countries.
On this page, you will find an E.A.R.T.H. Day acrostic poem
that is set inside a globe template.
For these E.A.R.T.H. Day acrostic poems, students lightly color the background of the continents and oceans in their globes, and then use a dark pen to write their acrostic poems on the lines.
Students cut out the globe templates along the thick black border, and then they will have unique globe shaped poetry templates.
These Earth Day poems will make a colorful bulletin board display in your classroom that will highlight this important date which is recognized around the world.
This set of Earth Day lesson plans includes:
Everything that you need to complete these Earth Day poems is included in this teaching resources set. All that you will need is scissors, coloring pencils, and pens.
For creative writing assignments, I believe that it is important for students to go through the steps of the writing process.
For this reason, my students never begin writing their Earth Day poems on their final draft templates, instead they write on first draft worksheets. Then, they edit and revise their poems on their own, with a partner, or in individual writing conferences with me.
Below is an example of the first draft worksheet that
is included in this set of Earth Day teaching resources.
After students have edited and revised the first drafts of their poems, you should give them their final draft globe templates.
The Earth Day globe templates measure 9 inches in length and 7 inches in width.
For their final drafts, students lightly color the continents and oceans using color pencils. Then, using a dark ink pen, students write their Earth Day poems on the lines.
These globe templates have thick border lines, so it is easy for the students to cut out their globe poetry templates themselves.
By using these unique globe templates, you will be able to create a dynamic poetry bulletin board display that highlights an important environmental theme as well.
As I am introducing this poetry assignment to my students, I like to begin by sharing my Earth Day poem with my students.
At the front of my classroom, I display an example of what the final draft globe templates look like.
By providing a visual example at the very beginning of this Earth Day lesson, my students know what their poetry assignments will look like when they have completed their final drafts.
For final draft poetry assignments, when I give my students fun templates to write on, I have found that they tend to use their best effort, and they are more careful to not make careless spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors.
This set of poetry teaching resources includes 5 colors of Earth Day globes.
Below is an example of the red template.
Besides the red template shown above, there are yellow, orange, green, and blue globe templates in this set of Earth Day Poems (see examples below).
You can choose to print out multiple copies of these 5 colorful globe templates and give them to your students to write their poems on instead of the black and white globe templates.
If you choose to use the color globe templates with your students, the finished bulletin board display of your students' Earth Day poems will be a bright array of rainbow colors.
Your colorful Earth Day poetry bulletin board display will be sure to capture everyone's attention!
I know that it takes teachers a lot of valuable time to assemble their bulletin board displays. Many teachers spend hours of time cutting out large display letters or making a banner on their own at home on their computers.
This time is valuable and better spent on developing your classroom curriculum.To help save you time, I have included a matching 5 page bulletin board display banner (shown above) in this set of Earth Day teaching resources.
If you have access to a laminating machine, you can laminate your banner so that it is durable and you can use it year after year for bulletin board displays of these Earth Day poems.
This set of Earth Day teaching resources also includes 18 globe bulletin board accent pieces to help you decorate your bulletin board for this environmental theme. Inside each of the globes, there is a conservation tip.

Heidi, I just had to write and let you know that your website has helped me create the most awesome author study of Roald Dahl's books. My students loved completing the big animal shaped projects you designed for The Enormous Crocodile, Esio Trot, and The Giraffe, and the Pelly and Me. For the final project, they had so much fun writing and drawing about the characters from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory using your Willy Wonka Factory project.

I feel so fortunate to have found your website and I have referred several of my co-workers to your website. Just for the month of January, there were three teachers displaying your book reports.

I just wanted to say thank you for the most amazing teaching resources that I have ever come across in my thirty years of teaching.

Select Local Merchants
The Tan CompanyRead MoreFounder Todd Beckman opened the first Tan Company location, then called The St. Louis Tan Company, in 1994 with a pair of average-size sun retreats. After perfecting a superstore concept with multiple levels of tanning beds and an intrepid-reporter alter ego, Beckman's bronzing business now spans 53 locations in 8 states, including 39 locations in the St. Louis area. Todd ensures each salon keeps the same high standards that won the 2010 award for Best Tanning in St. Louis from CityVoter. A knowledgeable staff maintains each bright, highly sanitized environment and stocks shelves with Australian Gold, Swedish Beauty, and Designer Skin tanning products. The Tan Company also fashions UV-free tans with Mystic Tan standup booths that evenly spritz bodies with a paraben-free DHA solution infused with aloe vera.1955 Wentzville ParkwayWentzville, MO US
Pacific Beach Tanning StudiosRead MorePacific Beach's Beauty Angel treatment pairs beautification and physique sculpting in a series of 10-minute sessions combining light therapy, vibration, and platform-based exercise. Within the stand-up booth, clients bask in a safe red light that works to reawaken the body's collagen and elastin factories, disentangling wrinkles around the eyes and firming skin across the entire physique. The booth sports a vibrating platform designed to help break down cellulite and further stimulate epidermal collagen production. The vibrating motion also facilitates muscle toning and recovery by relaxing fibers. After seven daily sessions over one week, wrinkles may begin to diminish, cellulite may begin fade, and skin may begin smooth out, negating the need to seek eternal youth in every municipal fountain.301 S Main StO Fallon, MO US
Sun Ray's TanningRead MoreAt Sun Rays, an exhaustive list of UV and UV-free tanning services sheathes bodies in golden veneers. Tanning packages cater to the entire corpus with 20-minute sessions in a Sunvision tanning bed; leg tans show preferential treatment with light focused exclusively on the gams. A comfort chair allows recumbent positioning during the session, and UV glasses protect the eyes from light rays and radioactive slideshows of embarrassing family photos. Alternatively, guests can opt for a UV-free glow with airbrush tanning services. Technicians spray epidermises in Playboy airbrush solution, imparting a bronze finish that lasts up to seven days, about the time it takes to color the entire body with a burnt-sienna crayon.110 Triad CtrO Fallon, MO US
STL SUN TANRead MoreSTL SUN TAN's technicians assemble custom tanning packages, skincare, and teeth whitening to help clients feel their best. The staple of their repertoire is, of course, tanning, and they boast 48 unique beds in addition to Mystic Spray Tan booths and precise airbrush tanning services. In short, they help clients get the look they're after with or without UV light. Each beauty service is performed in an environment they describe as "freakishly clean," meaning, presumably, that the beds are pristine, no dust bunnies lurk in corners, and there are no circus freaks to be found.618 N Main St.O'Fallon, MO US
Fit N TanRead MoreA great tan is only the beginning of a dazzling, fresh-from-the-beach look. Fit N Tan has got you covered, with body wraps, teeth whitening, and red-light therapy to complement its full-spectrum tanning services. The salon's state-of-the-art sunbeds help you build a base tan with limited UV exposure, while Mystic and VersaSpa spray tanning and airbrush tans give you a bronze glow with no UV exposure at all. To ensure that tan skin is also healthy-looking skin, Fit N Tan offers red-light therapy to minimize wrinkles, stretch marks, and scars.3054 Winghaven BoulevardO'Fallon, MO US
Image Sun St. LouisRead MoreImage Sun's professional tanning consultants add sun-kissed color to their clients' bods with a variety of airbrush services and tanning beds. Before patrons begin tanning treatments, specialists perform a complimentary skin-type analysis, which gauges the proper tanning equipment, power, and session time to prevent burning while building a deep base tan. The salon's private tanning rooms stock four levels of UV beds, which use variable doses of bronzing rays to gradually build up a golden complexion like a game of patty-cake with King Midas. Sun-shy clients can bypass ultraviolet exposure inside the Mystic Tan booth, which spritzes pasty torsos in just minutes. The high-end tanning tonic dries quickly, leaves skin oozing a breezy tropical scent, and—like the embarrassment of calling your boss "Dad"—fades in about one week. The salon also supplies a stock of tan-enhancing lotions from brands such as Australian Gold, Swedish Beauty, and Designer Skin, as well as ShineWhite teeth-whitening kits that help sharpen the contrast of newly bronzed skin.8093 Mexico RdSaint Peters, MO US

"The detectives handling the case didn't do a proper investigation," claims Dabrowski. "Caruso basically bullshitted the police like he did everybody else."
His job as a federal informer hasn't put a crimpin Caruso's lifestyle. Since his DEA arrest, he continues to throw parties, associate with known criminals, and hatch scams. He and Brendon Schlitz, an incarcerated member of a Mafia-connected street gang known as the Port Richmond Crew, used to rob drug dealers. According to Schlitz, a former schoolmate, Caruso spends his dayswhen not on tour with the Wu-Tang Clanhanging out at his father's garage, Mike's Radiator Repair, smoking pot, trading rhyming couplets with his rapping brother Mario, and "dreaming of his next big score." (When the Voice attempted to contact Caruso at the garage, Mario answered and said, "All you guys do is put slander all over him." Then he hung up. The Voice was unable to reach Caruso himself.)
"He's running around Staten Island like the mayor," says Schlitz. "He tells everybody he's down with the Wu-Tang Clan. They don't know how much of a lying rat bastard he really is."
Only two months agoat a stop on the Ghostface Killah/Cappadonna tour, during Soul Camp, a hip-hop night at the Garage in Washington, D.C.an armed, drunken Caruso intimidated a group of promoters.
"He threatened our staff," says the concert organizer. "He was carrying a handgun in the waistband of his green Karl Kani jeans. 'It's about to get real in here,' he warned them. 'I'm going to come up with some heat.' Everybody knew what he meant."
The dispute was a trivial one. After the gig, a Ford Expedition had turned up to take the Wu-Tang Clan back to the hotel, instead of the expected large van. "Where's the van?" Caruso raged. "If I don't get a van, I want a thousand dollars right now."
"We had zero problems with the artistsGhostface and Cappadonna were great," says the promoter. "The concert was incredible, except for dealing with Caruso, which was a nightmare. In this business you run into a lot of assholes. But Caruso was the biggest dickhead I've had to deal with. Why the Wu-Tang Clan allow this idiot to represent them amazes me. He's hurting the group's reputation."

Arizona Cardinals
Arizona Cardinals' Levi Brown knows what's at stake this training camp
Levi Brown is not oblivious.
The Arizona Cardinals' offensive tackle knows that the team signing free agent Eric Winston means the line got more crowded.
Winston, Bobby Massie, Nate Potter and Brown have all started NFL games, but only two can get the nod for the team. And entering the second season of a five-year, $30 million contract, the 29-year-old would be a pretty expensive backup.
"I already know that that's a possibility," he said when asked, essentially, if he could end up not making the roster. "So I just take it one day at a time."
The 6-foot-6, 324-pound Brown has been with the Cardinals since 2007 when they drafted him fifth overall out of Penn State, but missed all of last season with a torn right triceps tendon. Now back and healthy, he has to prove himself all over again to a new coaching staff, even though head coach Bruce Arians has professed a belief that the veteran could be an "elite" NFL tackle.
"Everything that they want to see, that I can handle the left tackle position," he said when asked what he needs to show his new coaches.
Brown has no doubts about his ability to do just that, but now he's got to prove it, and Friday he got back on the field really for the first time since the injury. Sure, he participated in the Organized Team Activities, but training camp offers a better chance to show what he's got.
"It's been a long rehab process -- a lot longer than I thought it was going to be," he said. "It's good to just get back out here and feel it around and see how it feels, and actually get back out there and compete."
Unfortunately for Brown, Friday's work was not in full pads, so he was not able to "punch" with the right arm, which he said is what he's really looking to do to prove to himself-- and the coaches -- that he's completely healed.
"Just waiting for the opportunity to present itself," he said with a smile.
The word "opportunity" has never really seemed more pertinent for Brown than it does right now. Whether it means a chance to prove he's healthy or to win a battle to make the roster, training camp will offer Brown all he needs.
And he knows it.

NETGEAR WPN824 RangeMax Wireless Router - WPN824NA
|10x more speed and 10x more coverage than Wireless-G
What is RangeMax?
NETGEAR's RangeMax Wireless Router (WPN 824) extends your wireless network coverage up to 10 times that of standard 802.11g due to an advanced Smart MIMO (Multi-In, Multi-Out) technology that incorporates seven intelligent internal antennas. The antennas continuously scan your home or office, automatically sensing obstacles and electronic interference, then dynamically adjust the wireless signal to compensate and maintain a clear connection. You enjoy reliable high-speed connections with virtually no dropouts or dead spots.
Securing Your Network
Securing your wireless network has never been easier. NETGEAR's Touchless WiFi Security delivers the highest level of wireless network security (WEP, WPA/PSK, or WPA2/PSK). In addition, with an integrated security dashboard, you can monitor and manage access to websites. Every PC accessing the Internet can be managed form one central location. And, NETGEAR's Smart Wizard installation software makes setup easy.
Customer Reviews of NETGEAR WPN824 RangeMax Wireless Router
Good choice5/9/2009
The router was easy to setup and use. It has excellent range and speed without dead spots noted. Would definitely recommend this to others looking for a good router at a reasonable price.
Very Nice Hard Drive.3/9/2009
Very easy to setup and use. No problems with this product.
Nice Option for Wireless Conversoin8/2/2008
I bought this product for use on my PS3. I was a little skeptical about purchasing it since it seems to be marketed towards the XBox and PS2 platforms. Nevertheless, after set up (with only a home network setback) the router works as advertised. I would recommend this for anyone with the early version of the PS3 platform that doesn't have built in WiFi capabilities (20GB models). This is a much nicer option than running cable and is very user friendly.
Great Product4/28/2008
This is a great buy for your money. I actually purchased this on previous reviews. It was an easy set-up. I have excellent signal and the speed is great!
Do not buy this router4/7/2008
Do not buy this router. Buy a Linksys. 1) it does not have any better range than the Linksys. I have used both in the same setup. They are exactly the same. "rangemax" is BS. 2) it does not work. I have had never ending problems 3) Their support is only free for 90 days. After agreeing to pay them for telling me what is wrong with their product, here is I sit on hold on their "premium line". I should have stuck with the Linksys. Do not make the same mistake.0 Helpful | 3 Not Helpful
Works great2/18/2008
Easy setup. Simple upgrading process. Excellent signal. Far out distances the old Linksys WRT54G.
NetGear rules - better than Linksys1/11/2008
I bought this router due to the positive feedback of many customers and join their praise of this product. I installed it in less than ten minutes and it has not disconnected or failed in over one week. The Linksys router I replaced was a new top of the line model (wrt54gx4) and it never stayed connected for more than 30 minutes. I called tech support, did all the "fixes", and nothing worked. This is my second Netgear (my old one only supported 11b and WEP and I wanted g support as well as WPA). You will not go wrong with this unit.
Excellent router12/16/2007
Really a great router! The only problem I had setting it up came from not following the directions. It's worked perfectly since replacing my old wired router. Range seems really quite good, signal strength also.
Resolved my problem12/8/2007
I bought this as a replacement for my Netgear WGT624(?) router which kept needing recycling when used with long downloads under Linux. The problem went away as soon as I replaced it with this router. Setup was fairly easy (same as the other Netgear was). I do not notice any improvement in speed, only having resolved the crashing problem I had before. The only negative I found is that it is much larger than the old one.
excellent wireless router12/7/2007
I was using a SMC2804wbr for the last 5 years. It did quite well, but we typically have 20-25 routers operating in our building and the interference was regularly knocking the SMC out. The Netgear one has been rock solid -- not even 1 reset in 2 weeks of operation and a relatively steady signal. wired ethernet performance has been fine too plug and play -- checked whether I should upgrade firmware or change settings and did not need to do anything
Easy to install12/4/2007
Great product from Netgear. Quality is great and so is the signal strength. Installation was super easy. Didn't even need the provided CD or literature. Its pretty much plug and play. The FW on the router was up-to-date so no trouble there. It is a little larger than I was expecting and the constant flashing LEDs bother me at times. Definitely keep this out of your bedroom.
A good router9/26/2007
I was a bit apprehensive about a wireless router, but I've had fewer problems with this router than with wired routers I've owned in the past. It sets up very easily. We have a two-story house with approximately 2,000 square feet of space and we are still able to get a signal anywhere in the house that we've tried. We also have a desktop computer with a wireless connection and it seems just as fast as a wired one. The lights on top of the unit, that some people find annoying, can be turned off by the push of a button. It's been a few months and we haven't really had any significant problems. I think I've only had to reset the connection once or twice and only once did the laptop have a problem getting a signal, but that resolved itself within a few minutes. Setting up password protection is easy and it also allows you to enter a code into your own computers so that you don't have to keep re-entering the password every time you want to go on the Internet. The router also allows for wired connections, so we have an additional computer connected by ethernet cable and a Vonage router connected as well. I'm very satisfied with this router.
Very good product9/25/2007
I suppose the bandwidth would be better but my router is located very far from my PC. The walls of my home are constructed out of plaster/slats of wood (very old construction) and I still get adequate speeds which means the range is excellent. I'm sure this router would perform even better if I had a Netgear wireless network card but I have one from Linksys. Setup was rediculously easy.
Nice router9/25/2007
My computer adapters are all 'G' so I didn't need anything faster. I bought this to replace a very old Netgear router. I've been very happy with Netgear - very easy to set up and configure and a smaller footprint. The light show on this one is a bit much but I've read that you can turn it off. Just haven't gotten there yet as mine is located in a room where it doesn't bother anyone. I hoped that the signal would be a bit stronger than the old router but my laptop computers don't record an appreciable difference in signal quality, however, I am experiencing fewer drops so there is possibly a constraint with the wireless adapters on the computers themselves.
Easy To Install5/14/2007
The easiest installation instructions I've ever read. If I can do it anyone can!! Buy this one! It works perfectly also.
Buy.com Rocks!5/12/2007
I have been using this router since November of 2006, and have never experienced any problems so far. Buy.com arrived this product just on time in perfect condition! Buy.com is so much better than Newegg, that their honesty is appreciable. No drop signals, and works like a charm. Buy (.com) it!
I was a bit skeptical but....4/10/2007
I bought this router to solve a connection issue that my brother was having while attempting to connect to a router that I set up about two stories above him. He always got a "Low" to "Very Low" signal but was still able to connect for a while but recently, the connection started dropping altogether. After reading several reviews I decided to buy the Netgear Rangemax. The setup was ok, I ran into a couple of snags but it was pretty straightforward. When I connected to the router, I was impressed. The signal strength was fluctuating between "Very Good" and "Good" with an occasional "Low" but never dipping to "Very Low". What can I say?, it works as advertised. I'm also using '802.11g' wireless adapters. I wonder if there would be any improvement if I were to upgrade.
This router is ridiculous. I have used other routers in the past that all claim to be able to provide full, unimpeded coverage, but they have all failed to do what this guy does. I can literally use my laptop anywhere in my house -- up, down, left, right - ANYWHERE!
Netgear is the way to go2/15/2007
I've had linksys and dlink routers in the past with ok experience with some of them. This netgear router is painless to setup and pretty straight forward. Extra optional parental security features and the ability to block out sites and programs. This will be the only thing you'll need for years to come.
PreN but performs as advertised!10/27/2006
Extra range allows all my computers equipped with PreN to recieve good to excellent signals throughout my using area. Just be sure to use the security features to restrict others from logging on! Even using 111g equipped laptops the range seems better and signal stronger. My only gripe is the cost for something allready obsolete since 111n has been approved. Also, the current driver for the USB 2 adapter is 32bit, with no plans I know of for updating it to 64bit for Vista compatability.
I had a d-link router that did not work well. I read the reviews of this product and bought it. Everything others said is true: it is so easy to set up and it works wonderfully. Excellent product and a very good price.
Great Router!9/17/2006
I was having trouble with my Linksys constantly dropping my internet connection, I tried everything to fix it, I finally got a different router. I have been very pleased with my Netgear router I purchased from Buy.com. It is easy to set up, has great range, lots of features and most of all its been solid. I highly recommend it.
The blue lights have a switch in the V2 version6/10/2006
If you get the WPN824 v2, there is a push-button switch on the back panel that turns off the silly lights on top of the router. So much for Netgear's implication that the lights "served a purpose and couldn't be turned off" in documentation supplied for the earlier version.

 Netgear says you can't specify a particular version (V1 or V2) when ordering this product on the web. You get whatever is on the shelf.

 They could have released a firmware update for the first version to allow turning off the lights in the web management, but I think the lamps are hard-wired into the circuitry. Hence the mechanical switch to turn them off in the V2 version.

Other than that, it's a great device!
Very happy with this router5/12/2006
Installed with no major problems and it's running flawlessly for last 6 months. I use it with all kinds of wireless adapters - all of them show huge improvment in reception with this router.
Blue Light Special12/1/2005
"A Customer from Chesapeake, VA," wrote that the blue light on his Netgear RangeMax was annoying; I find it pretty cool, but, interestingly, my accessories in the box included a little cover that blocks the light completely. Maybe there's one in his/her box, too; it's easily overlooked.

I am the proud owner of this device. Await to receive my rebate offer of the associated RangeMax PCMCIA card. This is the device to consider to go Wireless from your xDSL/Cable/FIOS connection to the I-net!!! Will always recommend
Nice Router but...8/3/2005
Bigger footprint than the Super G Router. The blue light on top has to go, it is really annoying having a blue light go around and around. There was no need for that and Netgear says it cant be turned off. I bet future versions will not have it. I didn't notice any improved range using this router over my existing Netgear 624 super G router.4 Helpful | 0 Not Helpful
Best Router out at the moment7/27/2005
I am a A+ certified PC technician, and there was no way to get a decent wireless signal out of my basement. The room where my network is based is sound proofed which kills every attempt I make to boast the signal. I was going to get a access point to extend the coverage but I decided to try the RangeMax. WOW, that's all I can say. The setup was easy and if you use the cd it walks you right thru it. As a test I hooked my laptop up and started walking up the stairs from the basement, half way up the steps the signal had already dropped to 50%, I stopped at that point and within 15 seconds the signal had returned to full strength. The auto reconfigure feature of the 7 antennas actually worked. Using this same procedure I was able to get between 50% and full signal from every corner of my house.11 Helpful | 0 Not Helpful
Great Product - Strongly Recommend7/22/2005
I have been blown away by the product. Not only was the setup wizard easy to go through (I'm not a techie) but the product itself has surpassed my expectations. I'm not getting of any wireless performance degradation through the many walls in my house. (2 story) The range of the RangeMax eclipses the range of my old wireless router. I am free to roam to any corner of the house!!!
It solved my wireless dificulties!7/4/2005
This is the first time I have written a product review. But I was so skeptical that any wireless router was going to solve my dead spots and poor connections in my home that when this did, I feel like I have to let others know. I was convinced that my home is an electromagnetic black hole because I have difficulties with every device I have in the house. My wireless laptop had great connection with other Netgear routers in every other environment but my house. I replaced my router with a Netgear WGR 614 (g) in the fall, 2004 and my connectivity was still unreliable. I have a Dell Inspiron 5100 with an internal wireless card. Unless I was within 15 feet of the router, my connection would fade in and out and when it was in, it would only transmit at 3-5 mbps. Needless to say, my wireless experience was disappointing at best. The claims of this Rangemax seemed too good to be true. But it is true! It was easy to set up (even for a mom!) with the included set-up wizard on CD-ROM. And now I can move all over the house, in the yard, near the home entertainment center, near the laundry appliances (lots of metal which killed my signal before) and I keep a strong signal and the speed is never lower than 18 mbps! Awesome! And I'm still using the internal wireless card. At first I thought the price was a little much considering my current router was less than a year old, but it was worth every penny. If you're having connectivity problems, give it a try!14 Helpful | 0 Not Helpful

Are the following propositions true of the colors: No object can be more than one determinable or determinate color all over at the same time (Incompatibility); the colors of objects are mind-independent (Objectivism); and most human observers usually perceive the colors of objects veridically in typical conditions (Veridicality)? One reason to think not is that the empirical literature appears to support the proposition that there is mass perceptual disagreement about the colors of objects amongst human observers in typical conditions (P-Disagreement). In this article, we defend Incompatibility, Objectivism, and Veridicality by calling into question whether the empirical literature really supports P-Disagreement.

I bought this bike hoping to get a little adventure back into my life. So easy to get caught up in work responsibilities and just the drama of normal life. I'm finding riding to be very addictive and seductive. Can't stop thinking about places to ride and new vistas to see.
May I ask another, simpler question......What time of year would be best to ride around Colorado? I was considering the last two weeks of July.
Again, Thanks to all of you.
July is fine, I've done it in June, October and September.
If you are interested, here is complete helmet cam footage of me doing Engineer Pass on my F800GS in June 2011. This is from Animas Forks over towards the Lake City side (I've only done it this way, this allows you to come back over Cinnamon Pass from Lake City). The video ends when it becomes an easy dirt road all the way to Lake City, still scenic though!

Egg Poacher 4
Edit Page Last Edit: 2 years 2 months ago
Egg Poacher - Find five Bird Nests in the region of the Mountain Village. You may find these items easily collectible after Lara has unlocked the Rope Arrow so you can go up and down the area with less trouble.
Egg Poacher 4 is on the cliff tops where Lara uses the Rope Arrow to reach the Chasm Monastery and Captain Jessop (the pilot from the rescue plane). The nest here is the "south" nest on the same spire as a document and the wood post used to cross the windy chasm.

Understanding backup id number after client name
Created: 30 Jul 2013 • Updated: 30 Jul 2013 | 2 comments
This issue has been solved. See solution.
We are trying to see how far behind our AIR slp replication jobs are. I was wondering if the number at the end of the backup ID is any indication of the date the job was run - client_#############
Does anyone know how to decipher the number after the client name? Does it have any relevance to the date of the job?
