Test passed! Uploaded portfolio, there are 3 identical pictures, but with a different resolution. Then again, I want to upload, and throws me back to the test. Why? p.s. Can I upload photos in style "MATTE POINTING ". thanks
Could you open up a Support ticket? Sounds to me like something is not working right
Hello, and I have passed the Test for many times, but every time I do the Test, I must upload a photo straight.If I do the Test, and then don't upload a photo, the Test will cancel like I never passed it and the next time I must do the test from the start! So I can't understand what's going on…mayby I could open up a Support ticket..
Good question, it helps for all if any Answered
I had similar problem but found the right way…
1. Pass the test , then immediately
2. Upload your portfolio
I think that the system doesn't remember that you passed the test and if you want to upload your porfolio later you must pass the test again. But it's important to receive after passing test the window with message to upload your portfolio in zip format.

An Icy Riddle as Big as Greenland
Published: June 8, 2004
(Page 2 of 2)
''It's as if we're running a gigantic uncontrolled experiment on the climate system and we know we have the capability of making large impacts,'' said Robert Hawley, a glaciologist from the University of Washington stationed at the Summit Camp, a permanent dome-topped installation at the highest point of the ice sheet. ''Should we continue just to experiment or should we try to figure this out first?''
The greatest concern is that the changes are part of an Arctic-wide pattern that includes a pronounced thawing of the Alaskan tundra and a retreat of the sea ice around the North Pole, at least in summer. Greenland's temperatures had for years bucked the Arctic warming trend. But they now seem to be increasing, according to new satellite data analyzed by Dr. Josefino C. Comiso at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center.
The intimate relationship between Greenland and its surrounding seas was evident to 19 scientists, aides and other passengers on a recent flight from upstate New York aboard an Air National Guard LC-130 cargo plane. As the plane droned across the Labrador Sea separating North America from the white-topped island, the water below was laced with cordons of icebergs heading south from the ever-eroding edge of the ice cap, following the course taken in 1912 by the berg that sank the Titanic.
Just as Greenland contributes meltwater and melting icebergs to the sea, the northward-flowing surface currents of the Atlantic transport heat from the tropics to the Arctic and adjacent regions. As this heat is shed to the air, it renders Greenland's coasts relatively mild and helps make northern Europe warm enough that roses can be grown at latitudes that elsewhere support polar bears. As the water chills, it grows denser and sinks. The downward flow is the engine that powers a world-spanning oceanic ''conveyor belt'' through which seawater is eventually mixed and recycled.
Several times in the past, even early in the current 12,000-year warm spell in which modern civilizations arose, that conveyor belt has shut down. When it stopped, it stopped quickly, as if a circuit breaker had been tripped. In each case, according to recent research on layers of sea-bottom fossils and sediments, the trigger was a big inflow of fresh water into those vital spots where the surface water sinks.
Waters in the region are not only freshening, but a buildup of fresher water is diminishing the bank of saltier, denser water that sustains the deep southward-flowing circulation in the Atlantic, said Dr. Ruth Curry, an oceanographer at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution at Cape Cod, Mass.
In December, Dr. Curry, with British and Canadian researchers, reported the 40-year trend toward a freshening of the North Atlantic and growing saltiness in the tropics. She said that the Atlantic was being pushed toward ''a precipice'' that could be reached in three or four decades and that a Greenland meltdown could push it over the edge.
Many scientists disagree, saying even a significant melting is not likely to produce big shifts, at least in this century.
Dr. Peter Wadhams, an ocean physicist at Cambridge University, said a host of different mechanisms would keep the conveyor moving, even if the freshening persists. One is the formation of sea ice, which releases the salt in seawater as it forms, making underlying waters saltier and, thus, denser. Plumes of this briny water ''sink like syrup falling off a spoon,'' Dr. Wadhams said.
One possibility, some scientists say, is that the system could be self-regulating, with the shutdown of warm currents, in turn, cooling Greenland and stopping the melting. Another wild card, some computer models show, is that further warming will increase snowfall and add as much frozen water to Greenland as is lost through melting or the splitting off of icebergs. Other models suggest that the ice shield could shrivel entirely in 1,000 years, a phenomenon that scientists theorize has not occurred for 440,000 years.
On Greenland, efforts are under way to resolve the big uncertainties. Dr. Joseph R. McConnell, a snow hydrologist from the Desert Research Institute in Reno, Nev., is examining whether forces other than global warming could be responsible for changes here. Under a NASA grant, he recently completed a three-week 250-mile snowmobile crossing of the ice sheet, extracting four shaftlike ice cores en route. The cores have hundreds of layers, like tree rings, made by each year's snowfall. They will be analyzed for shifts in dust types or subtle chemical markers that could show whether winds were blowing from Europe or North America in particular years. The study may show if recent changes in snowfall and melting match natural cycles in North Atlantic weather.
After flying down from the summit to a coastal airfield following his snowmobile trek in May, Dr. McConnell took a break and hiked over undulating tundra to the clifflike edge of the ice. The spring warmth was eating away at the vaulting blue-white ramparts streaked with gray layers deposited by volcanoes and dust storms eons years ago. A torrent of silty meltwater poured along the bluff of ice, heading toward the Labrador Sea, 115 miles west.
He marveled at how much ancient water was stored in front of him.
''If Greenland melted,'' he said, ''it'd raise sea levels by 20 feet. There goes Florida. There goes most of the Mississippi embayment. There go the islands in the South Pacific. Bangladesh is obliterated. Manhattan would have to put up dikes.''
Although much work is needed to solve the puzzle, he added, the hints of big changes are building. ''There's definitely a lot of melting going on,'' Dr. McConnell said, flinching as a crack echoed from the warming white cliff and a giant ice slab shifted ever so slightly.

F4) Chart/Map: ''An Ice Cap In Retreat'' The outer edges of Greenland's ice sheet have been melting. Displaced Currents The North Atlantic's deep reservoir of cold and salty water, a dense mass that helps drive ocean circulation, is being diluted by fresh water from Greenland. If the freshening persists, it may disrupt currents that keep Europe warm.

F1) Chart: ''Fresher Water, Fresh Questions'' Melting glaciers and rising snowfall are making the North Atlantic less salty. Scientists are racing to determine whether this change could trigger climate upheavals. Maps track the salt of the North Atlantic for 1967-72, 1980-84 and 1995-2000.

Hi, I'm Holly! I work at Connecting Threads' sister company Knit Picks. Thought I mostly knit these days, I've been sewing since I was 6. My grandmother was a garment worker and there was nothing I loved more than to sit at the sewing machine with her and sew my own clothes. I now have two young daughters (ages 1 and 2-busy times!), and I love sewing clothing for them even more than for myself. So when Connecting Threads started carrying gorgeous Mammoth Flannels, I knew I wanted to make my older daughter, Penny, an Oliver & S Bubble Dress. I just got finished sewing it. What do you think? Made in Striped Tweed Flannel (color: Flame, item number: 7683), I think it turned out so soft and cozy.

After removing the panels, and numerous screws, i was able to remove the part from the door. Using a ladder next to the door to support the part, I was able to peel off the heater wiring on the back of the part, and disconnect the wiring to allow for replacement of the parts. Just take your time, as things will come apart, but having support for the parts frees up both hands to do the wiring removals and eventual replacement. I estimated about an hour and a half to do the replacement.

Full lockup on A7N266-VM/AA with 9631
Hi all.
Don't think I can give much useful information about this crash as the machine locks cold and can't be SSH'd after crash. However, if there's any data I can get for you that would be useful, tell me.
I have an A7N266-VM/AA which is a Geforce2 chipset. Ubuntu Edgy system, fully updated.
Anyways, I've been running 8774 for ages. Tried the beta 9625 awhile ago, and got compiz to work a bit, but with terribly poor speed and serious instability, so I stuck with 8774. I've never seen accelerated openGL out of this card whatsoever under Linux, which is a shame.
Now that 9631 is out I thought I'd try it. Well on X server startup, it shows the green NVIDIA logo on a black screen, then displays only the little gray box where the login name would go and refuses to do anything else. No mouse movement, no network connection, nothing. Once some beeping came out of the PC speaker.
This is much like what 9625 did until I applied a patch somebody posted here. Perhaps 9631 needs the same patch for this card?
Looks like support is going to be discontinued for these cards from the look of it, shame that the last release is broken for my board.
Re: Full lockup on A7N266-VM/AA with 9631
The 1.0-96xx legacy driver branch isn't going to be discontinued any more than the 1.0-71xx legacy branch isn't going to be discontinued.
If you'd like further assistance, see:
Re: Full lockup on A7N266-VM/AA with 9631
Good to know there's hope of seeing a new version. I assumed since it didn't have its own link on the download page like 71xx, it had just been dropped in the latest version, as I had to dig it out of the archive.
It would be nice to have a direct link on the driver page as well as maybe a list of supported cards?
Anyways I tried all those things on that linked page already.
Found my old thread from 9625, looks like some other guy posted there having the same problem as I am with this board... no solution though.

Merriam-Webster's dictionary defines automaton as "a mechanism that is relatively self-operating" such as a robot. Such a machine forms the underpinning of the two-time Booker Prize-winning author Peter Carey's newest book, The Chemistry of Tears.
Carey introduces Catherine Gerhig, a London museum curator. She has just been told about the unexpected death of co-worker and family man Matthew, with whom she has been having a covert long-term affair. Catherine's boss assigns to her the labor-intensive job of reassembling a complicated Victorian mechanical toy in attempt to distract her from her overwhelming grief. Amongst the chests of parts, Catherine finds the journals of Henry Brandling. Brandling was an Englishman who had traveled to rural Germany to commission clockmakers to build a fantastic mechanical duck which he intends to present to his beloved sickly son.
Webster's second meaning for automaton refers to a machine operating according to predetermined directions; Catherine and Henry, as revealed through his diaries, both seem to be on autopilot themselves. Henry is on his single-minded quixotic quest to bring home a toy, the magical novelty of which he believes will spark his son to live. Self-medicated Catherine is slogging through the motions of life, unhinged as she is by her anguish at losing her lover.
Carey is a clever writer who blurs the distinctions between man and machine. Catherine eats only to live, Henry despairs at the paucity of food available to him, and what turns out to be a swan has a fully functioning digestive tract and eats for the entertainment of others. Henry and Catherine are objects of manipulation, as is the swan. The Chemistry of Tears is a well-written and intelligent story and Carey's illuminating descriptions of antique mechanical inventions are a lovely bonus.
Despite majestic surroundings and lifelong ties to the earth's bounty, there was little color in William Talmadge's days. A solitary figure living a simple life, his emotional and physical toils are somberly chronicled in Amanda Coplin's haunting literary debut, The Orchardist.
Set in the rural Pacific Northwest at the turn of the twentieth century, Talmadge spends his days methodically tending a grove of fruit trees started by his widowed pioneer mother on his 400 acres of family land. No stranger to loss, the middle-aged farmer still pines for a beloved sister who mysteriously disappeared years earlier. When he encounters two young and pregnant runaway sisters, Jane and Della, he decides to shelter them. His actions are shaped by his memories of the sister he lost and the family he hesitantly envisions. It is the one person who knows him well, his old friend Caroline Middey, who observes, "suffering had formed him. " Circumstances will now change his life, especially as a new baby, Angeline, becomes "his shadow in the trees," and the new bud of this makeshift family whose fragile underpinnings are about to give way.
Coplin's writing is spare and deliberate, with minimal dialogue. Much is conveyed by the silent introspection of memorable characters and their sense of belonging, especially of a broken Della. Coplin, who was born in Wenatchee, Washington, grew up among her grandfather's orchards. Her storytelling is rich with images of a frontier before railroads or highways and of a time and place when one belonged to the earth. Fans of John Steinbeck, Leif Enger 's Peace Like a River or Charles Frazier's Cold Mountain will welcome Coplin to their stack of enticing reads.
This summer, the world suffered the loss of literary giant Ray Bradbury. In the same summer, we found him again between the pages of a remarkable new anthology: Shadow Show: All New Stories in Celebration of Ray Bradbury. Twenty-six of today's finest authors, some bestsellers, some living legends in their own right, have come together in this anthology to pay tribute and to immortalize the magnificent mind and imagination of Bradbury. The collection, prepared prior to the honoree's passing, includes a poignant yet humorous introduction by Bradbury himself, in which he expresses his love and gratitude for his literary children and welcomes the reader to enjoy the family reunion within.
In Shadow Show Margaret Atwood, Neil Gaiman, Dan Chaon, Alice Hoffman, David Morrell, Sam Weller and a score of other immensely talented authors have contributed a diverse range of original short stories in celebration of the life and works of the Teller of Tales. Some stories are laced with deliberate allusion to individual Bradbury works, while other compositions display a subtler, more effervescent influence. Each tale is concluded with a uniquely personal author's note, explaining the influence either Bradbury or a story he wrote has had on the author's life and the story contributed. As one reads through the tales and accompanying notes, it becomes apparent that what makes this anthology so very special is not so much the talent of the contributors– though considerable – as the genuinely mindful care taken by each author to create something worthy of their literary papa.
Bradbury once recounted the story of how he became a writer, citing a surreal, almost dreamlike encounter with a magician in his childhood. Sharing a chance meeting and ensuing conversation one afternoon following a funeral, the magician confided to the boy that in young Bradbury he saw the soul of his best friend reborn. As many will readily agree, to read Bradbury is to know him like a best friend known lifelong. As the contributing authors so skillfully demonstrate in Shadow Show, though Mr. Bradbury may have passed from this realm, his indelible influence will live forever.
Tony Siragusa, one of the most beloved former Ravens, writes about football and life in Goose: the Outrageous Life and Times of a Football Guy. Siragusa's path to the Super Bowl wasn't easy, and his was a career which almost didn't happen. Readers meet Goose as a child in New Jersey and learn that athletics did not always come easy. In fact, he used his failure to make the Little League All Star team at age twelve as future motivation to prove his prowess. He had a successful career as a college athlete at the University of Pittsburgh and also enjoyed the extra-curricular fun associated with college days. Unfortunately, he injured both knees while playing and lost a season to rehabilitation.
During the 1990 NFL draft, Siragusa was not picked through twelve rounds, but was selected by the Indianapolis Colts as an undrafted free agent. The team doctor thought he would be lucky to survive a few years in the NFL. But what do doctors know? Siragusa played for twelve seasons, signing with the Ravens in 1997. He will forever be remembered in Baltimore as a critical member of the 2000 Ravens' defense which allowed the fewest points in NFL regular season history, and which went on to bring the Lombardi Trophy to Charm City by claiming victory in Super Bowl XXXV. Today, Siragusa is a popular sideline reporter on the Fox network and cohost of DIY Network's Man Caves. Football falls will appreciate the insider details, but this is more than a tale of the gridiron. Siragusa shares life lessons, stories about small town living, and the importance of perseverance in this breezy, humorous read which will appeal even to those readers who don't claim citizenship in Ravens Nation.
Before British Parliament passed the Matrimonial Causes Act, marriages could only be dissolved in a private Act of Parliament, the cost and scandal of which made divorces rare. During the summer of 1858, that changed. The new Court of Divorce and Matrimonial Causes began to grant divorces to the English middle class. On June 14, 1858, a man named Henry Robinson petitioned the court to dissolve his marriage to his wife Isabella on grounds that she had committed adultery. The evidence came from her own diary, portions of which were read aloud over the course of the trial and then widely published in London newspapers. London was riveted by the scandal. Kate Summerscale brings this fascinating story to modern audiences in Mrs. Robinson's Disgrace: The Private Diary of a Victorian Lady.
In her diary, Isabella Robinson regularly reflected on her unhappiness with her life and marriage. She also wrote about a relationship with a man named Edward Lane, who publicly denied the affair. Standards for proving a wife's adultery in divorce cases were so low that the diary was potentially enough to condemn Isabella in court despite her husband's multiple infidelities. To protect Lane's reputation, Isabella's attorneys and doctors convinced her to present the diaries as fictional, and her only viable legal defense was to claim that she had imagined the affair because she suffered from sexual mania.
Summerscale first read about this story in a book about Victorian scandals while she was researching her previous bestseller, The Suspicions of Mr. Whicher: A Shocking Murder and the Undoing of a Great Victorian Detective. She began to investigate the story because she was intrigued by the double standards that women faced in Victorian divorce courts; she wanted to know the truth about Isabella Robinson. Her storytelling results in the gripping tale of Mrs. Robinson's fall from grace and the ensuing scandal.
Debut author Kevin Powers takes us to the Iraq War and back in his poignant novel The Yellow Birds. Narrating from a secluded cabin in the mountains of Virginia, twenty-one-year-old veteran John Bartle recalls his hellish experiences in Iraq's Nineveh Province and his current struggles to rebuild a life ravaged by post-traumatic stress.
Private Bartle's story begins in basic training, where he quickly befriends an eighteen-year-old recruit named Murphy. They become inseparable, and Bartle takes it on himself to protect Murphy and get him back home safely. But once they arrive in war-torn Iraq, these two young soldiers discover that neither is ready to face the physical and psychological battles yet to come. What unfolds is a testament to friendship and loss set against the horrors of war, as well as a moving portrayal of how war affects not just soldiers but also their families and friends at home.
Powers, an Iraq veteran himself and recent M.F.A. graduate of the University of Texas at Austin, has the voice of a poet and wrote The Yellow Birds largely based on his own war experiences. Early praise from authors like Colm Toibin and Ann Patchett hails this novel as a "superb literary achievement" and proclaims it a modern classic. In fact, New York Times bestselling author Chris Cleave has compared Powers to Ernest Hemingway and Cormac McCarthy for his use of spare, lyrical prose.
Rich with flashbacks, metaphors, and written in a stream-of-consciousness style, The Yellow Birds will stay with you long after the final page. Readers who enjoy this new novel may also want to try Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk by Ben Fountain and Fobbit by David Abrams, two equally wonderful stories that take a satirical spin on the Iraq War.
Lisa Cach introduces Grace Cavanaugh who is a bit of a frump, a strong feminist, and an impoverished grad student in Great Aunt Sophia's Lessons for Bombshells. Grace needs to finish her dissertation in Women's Studies, which is based on the thesis that beauty in women leads to misery. As she struggles with her work, she receives an offer to act as a companion to her great-aunt who she has only met once as a child. Grace jumps at the chance to head to Pebble Beach, for what is sure to be a summer of comfortable quiet during which she will be able to focus on her studies. But Great Aunt Sophia has other ideas, and for Grace it becomes a summer to remember.
Sophia is a former B-movie star who at eighty-five still attracts attention wherever she goes. She decides that Grace is a project and upon hearing her thesis, Sophia sets out to prove Grace wrong. Sophia's object is to change Grace outwardly which will then improve her self-esteem and create an empowered and desirable woman. Before Grace can blink, she has a trainer, a personal shopper, and some truly awesome lingerie. As Grace's appearance slowly changes, so too does her view of herself and her perception of beauty. Grace quickly attracts the attention of Declan, a bad boy with a commitment phobia, and Andrew, Sophia's handsome but deadly dull doctor. Grace's head is telling her to go for Andrew, but her pesky heart and that sexy spark keeps leading her to Declan.
In the end, Grace's thesis is turned on its head and she finds personal satisfaction in her appearance and appeal. This fun story goes past a simple ugly duckling transformation tale with plenty of wonderful and unique characters, a whole lot of humor, and a sprinkle of spice!
Imagine waking up in the middle of the night on the floor, disoriented, clutching your leg in pain. How did you get there? Why aren't you still asleep in bed? And what happened to your leg? After actually living through this frightening sleepwalking scenario, David K. Randall, a journalist for Reuters, decided to investigate his personal nightmare, determined to find out how he could prevent it from happening again. His book, Dreamland: Adventures in the Strange Science of Sleep, leads us into the mysterious and occasionally bizarre corners of neurobiology, psychology, and sociology that deal with how and why we sleep.
Each chapter in this fascinating book deals with a different sleep conundrum, from sleep exhaustion in the military to the effect of artificial light on circadian rhythms to whether you can commit murder while sleeping. Over the course of the book a deceptively simple formula emerges—what you do while you are awake affects your sleep, and how you sleep affects your mind and body while you are awake. Intriguing tidbits of information sneak their way into the pages with such frequency that the reader marvels at how little she seems to know about such a vital bodily function.
Though not a scientist himself, Randall's forays into the realm of sleep science are well backed by an abundance of research, as evinced by the lengthy bibliography he includes at the back of the book. His prose remains accessible, captivating, and often humorous while still keeping science at its core. Dreamland provides an enigmatic taste of the often unsolved mysteries of sleep science that is sure to satisfy both the curious and the casual reader.
Tigers in Red Weather by Liza Klaussmann is the story of two cousins growing up in Tiger House on Martha's Vineyard. The first cousin, Nick, is getting married to the devilishly handsome Hughes when he returns from the war. But Hughes returns a different man, slightly distant and living in his own head. Nick requires variety and excitement, but what Hughes provides is stability and normalcy, and they begin to drift slowly apart. Helena is the second cousin, and she was engaged to a man who was killed in the war. She instead marries Avery, who works in Hollywood in the film industry. Later, Helena discovers that Avery's sole purpose in life is to maintain a collection pertaining to a dead actress and this drives a wedge between the couple.
Years pass, and Nick gives birth to daughter Daisy. Helena has a son named Ed, and the children become good friends. One fateful summer in the late fifties, Daisy and Ed discover the body of a young maid left beaten, strangled and covered in a blanket. This discovery affects all of the residents of Tiger House. Relationships deteriorate, secrets are kept and then revealed, and the world spins off its axis.
Klaussman, the great-granddaughter of Herman Melville, creates a compelling story. It is told in five parts, each focusing on one of the characters, and several scenes are replayed featuring a different point of view. This technique allows the reader to get a clear picture of the troubles facing Tiger House as well as the extent of the dysfunction within. Because of the unique storytelling style and the strong character development, this would be a good choice for a book club.
Don't be fooled by the cover. Jillian Medoff's new novel I Couldn't Love You More looks like a light beach read from the outside, but inside that cover, readers will find a challenging novel about family bonds and the choices we make. Medoff creates characters who feel very real, and she skillfully pulls readers into a story that will make them laugh and cry along with her characters.
All in all, Eliot Gordon is happy with the life that she has created with her partner Grant and their blended family. She loves Grant's daughters Charlotte and Gail, who they are raising along with Hailey, their daughter together. Like her stepdaughters, Eliot comes from a broken home, and she has a complex but loving relationship with her mother and sisters. But when Eliot's ex-boyfriend Finn, who she has always considered "the one who got away," arrives in town, Eliot begins to reexamine her life. Finn's appearance also leads to a series of events that culminates in the unimaginable. Eliot is forced to make a choice that no parent can fathom when two of her children are caught in a life-threatening situation, and Eliot can only save one. The rest of the novel explores the fall-out from Eliot's split-second decision.
Praised by authors Jodi Picoult and Jennifer Weiner, I Couldn't Love You More is funny, relatable, and wrenching. Medoff explores complex family relationships and the reality of being a stepparent with remarkable honesty and depth. This novel is tailor-made for book club discussions and includes a Reading Group Guide.

1000 days?
Why does this say that it will last for 1000 days when you need 1 gallon per person per day. That would be 500 days, which is still a long time.
From The Ready Store:
1 Gallon is recommended for drinking and hygiene, but if you only drink 1/2 gallon (8 cups of water) per day than it would last for 1,000 days. That is why it says Drinking Water Supply of 1,000 days.
The Ready Store
Great idea but....49" will not fit through the door.
I came very close to ordering one of these, until I realized there is no way I could get it in my house. Let alone down into my basement. Perfect for people with a walk out basement and french doors. And for me, the 250 gallon tank is to high. What a pity.

The morons who refuse to flush the toilet at work. I finally got tired of it and jumped all over a guy after he came out of a stall and I was waiting (very anxiously mind you) to go in.
People who feel they have to CONSTANTLY be texting or on the cellphone no matter what they are doing. And yeah, I'm pointing the finger mainly at the women. I'm tired of getting behind them driving, in the grocery store parking lot, or in the aisles. You're a nuisance.

This is for the LADIES!
Hey gals, one of my pet peeves is an unflushed or half-flushed toilet which seems to be happening quite often lately.
The only way I can think that this happens is a person flushes right before they leave and possibly after they had washed their hands
So if you wouldnt mind can you remember to flush!!! Thanks!
Then someone sent out this reply!!
Hi all,
Tomorrow morning I will be hosting a seminar 9-10am entitled Toilet Flushing for Dummies: A 10-Pound Toilet Paper Baby which will not only hi-light appropriate flushing techniques, but also make us more Earth or green conscious from now in both getting RID of the waste and conserving water.
The key here is holding the flush-lever to ensure a complete flush.
Also, before tomorrow morning, make sure you have bought and do bring your Flushing Fiction: Volume I to our seminar.
Much thanks and cant wait for our seminar! Please bring a bagged lunch as lunch will not be provided.

I'm not indifferent about it.

Beautiful small beach down, clam and quiet with a few really great restaurants. The beach was nice but the sand dunes are just amazing to watch the sunset from. Highly recommended weekend trip.
I read somewhere that this place is listed as one of the nicest beaches in the world - that's probably a bit of an exaggeration (especially as the brazilians in general don't have a great education about not littering) but still, it's a very nice beach, and it's location, at the tip of a national park composed almost entirely of...
One of the most beautiful places I ever saw.
Must drink tangerina frozen at Bar do Chico, you won't regret.
Sunset at Duna Pôr-do-sol is amazing, try to do some sandboard also.
Enjoy it.
First time in my life I've been i a place witch looked better on pictures then in a real life. Dune and view from it is absolutly magnificant but the beach it self is average. After a long and fun trip i expect something more breathtaking
Nice consistent beginner waves. Nice to walk around as well with a drink from one of the drink carts and a skewer. loved watching the Capoeira close to sunset as well.
Clean, warm and calm water. What else do you need? You could easily spend a whole day at this little beach and not regret it. Beautiful and very pleasant.
its a very special place, very small town, with not much to do but all its just TOO SPECIAL. Kind of surreal place. Super nice beach. The local people are very kind and u can leave your camera and things while going to swim and nothing happened. The dunes are huge (the biggest ive seen), the sunset is unique. If...
Stunning scenery, can be very windy, which is great for kite and windsurfing. A great variety of sand colours makes for a great view.
This is a place for surfing so if you think of sitting and relaxing on the beach and rest this is not the place for you. The wind is too strong making it hard to enjoy the beach. The view of th beach itself is very nice
The beach is mun so it not realy look clean but the water is clean very calm
A praia muito calma

It was starting to look like déjà-vu. The 1949 season was as tight a race as 1948. On Sunday, September 25, the Red Sox and Yankees were tied for first place, with only six games to play. No other team was remotely close.
It had taken a lot of work to get there. New York had been in first place by 12 games as late as the Fourth of July. The 25th was the first day all season that the Red Sox reached first place. They won two games, then lost one, and were tied again on the 28th. The last two games on the schedule were in Yankee Stadium. All the Red Sox had to do was win one of the two, and the pennant was theirs.
They'd put together a great season. Mel Parnell won 25 games (25-7, with a 2.77 ERA), breaking the record held by Babe Ruth for most wins by a Red Sox left-handed pitcher. Ellis Kinder was 23-6. Vern Stephens continued to drive in runs, knocking in 159 to lead the league – though he shared the honor with Ted Williams, who also drove in 159. Simple math shows us it was 318 RBIs by just two players. Doerr drove in 109 more. The 43 home runs that Williams banged out led the league, and he would have had his third Triple Crown if he'd managed one more hit. He finished at .3427 but George Kell of the Tigers finished .3429. Ted did win his second Most Valuable Player award, though.
Williams also showed a consistency at the plate which no one has ever matched. From July 1 through September 27, he got on base in every ballgame he played – 84 games in a row reaching base safely. Ted played in every game, all year long, and there were only five games in which he didn't reach base. In 1949, Dom DiMaggio hit safely in 34 consecutive games; his streak still stands as the longest hitting streak in franchise history.
The Red Sox leapt out to an early 4-0 lead in the first of the two final games, on October 1, but the Yankees got two runs in the fourth and two in the fifth and pushed across a fifth run in the bottom of the eighth. The Sox had had a bloop hit to right field with the bases loaded but the runner at third base was thrown out trying to score.By Bill Nowlin

Turkish military is key factor in Syria planning
Wednesday - 8/29/2012, 3:58am EDT
By CHRISTOPHER TORCHIA
Associated Press
ISTANBUL (AP) - In 2003, Turkey barred U.S. forces from opening a northern front in the war against Iraq in a stunning rebuff to Washington that raised questions about whether the politically powerful Turkish military had undercut a civilian-led initiative to help the Americans. As Turkey and its allies mull possible intervention in Syria, the Turkish military, broken as a political force, is likely to move in step with the civilian commanders it once viewed with disdain.
Questions about the military of NATO member Turkey are critical to international debate about how to handle Syria, now locked in civil war, because any move by an allied coalition to impose a no-fly zone or a buffer zone to protect displaced Syrians from attack by regime forces would rely heavily on troops in Turkey, which shares a long border with Syria. Such intervention with a U.N. mandate does not appear imminent, but Turkey, which hosts about 80,000 Syrian refugees, says it is approaching the limit of its capacity to provide shelter on its side of the border.
Turkey is also concerned that Kurdish militants are taking advantage of the chaos in Syria to organize there, deepening a threat to national security for Turkish officials who blamed a deadly bombing near the Syrian border on Aug. 20 on the rebel Kurdistan Workers' Party, or PKK. In such a fragile context, the Turkish government and the military, which once sparred openly over the direction of the country, need each other and have forged a means of cohabitation _ with Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan as the boss _ amid the traditional mistrust.
"What's really exited the scene in terms of civilian-military relations is that sense of hostility," said Soner Cagaptay, a senior fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. "That's really new."
He said the two sides listen to each other in a way that they did not before, and speculated that the military could be "putting mild breaks" on the government in terms of what may be militarily feasible if the moment for intervention comes. Turkey's decision to open its borders to refugees, while lauded on humanitarian grounds, has drawn some criticism from some opposition figures who say authorities can no longer thoroughly monitor whether militants are operating in the area.
Hundreds of active and retired military officers are in jail on charges of plotting to overthrow the democratically elected government, which is led by pious Muslims suspected by opponents of seeking to dilute secular ideals imposed by Turkey's national founder, former army officer Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. The arrests raised concerns about morale in the mostly conscript force as well as its effectiveness as a fighting force, but the new military commander, Gen. Necdet Ozel, is regarded as a cooperative professional untainted by alleged links to military coups over the decades.
The relationship was tense in 2003, when Turkey's parliament rejected a resolution that would have allowed American forces to invade Iraq from Turkish land in the campaign against dictator Saddam Hussein. Newly elected Erdogan had backed the resolution despite its unpopularity, while the military _ still a big factor in Turkish politics _ did not robustly support it, a factor that some analysts cited as contributing to its failure.
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton was in Istanbul earlier this month as part of efforts to coordinate Syria policy with Turkey, which supports the Syrian opposition and acts as a conduit for supplies to anti-Assad groups. Senior diplomatic, military and intelligence officials from both sides met last week to go over detailed operational plans for "the full range of contingencies," according to the U.S. State Department.
Turkey and its allies are averse to intervening in Syria because of fears it could ignite a wider conflict, though Turkish government rhetoric against Syria has been among the harshest, notably after the deaths of two Turkish pilots whose jet was shot down when Syria claimed the plane was violating its airspace. Turkey disputes Syria's claims, and the Turkish military continues its investigation.
In the wake of that incident, Cagaptay said, Turkey may have "slowed down its rhetorical response" at the urging of the U.S., "realizing that it could be left alone in a conflict situation against the Assad regime."
Henri Barkey, a Turkey analyst at Lehigh University in the United States, said the Turkish military "would not mind doing something heroically and therefore cleanse their image," but he noted that it is already burdened by a low-level war with Kurdish rebels who seek self-rule. That conflict has dragged on since the 1980s without a clear result, and there are questions about whether Turkey can handle the threat from Syrian forces armed with jets and tanks, even if they are overstretched with their fight against the Syrian insurgency.

In 2001, Becky co-wrote a groundbreaking and award-winning investigative series on 'failing teachers' that led to statewide reforms in teacher testing and a crackdown on teacher quality in the Chicago Public Schools. The three-day series, which began one week after the birth of her first child, gave Becky her first experience at balancing motherhood and career.
Happily married for more than thirteen years to Peter Gillespie, an employment litigator, she is the mother of Beth, ten (a history buff who can recite all the U.S. presidents in order) and Katie, eight (an avid player of soccer, chess and the guitar).
Becky, who once ran the Chicago Marathon and twice jumped out of airplanes just to prove to herself that she could, recently found a new (calmer) passion when Hollee convinced her to try yoga. She finds time every day to snuggle with Beth and Katie.
Hollee is a journalist-turned-lawyer-turned-professor at West Virginia University College of Law. She has first-hand experience with the challenges faced by her generation of female lawyers and has successfully melded her desires for professional satisfaction and family time by working in the law school environment.
After graduating at the top of her class with a combined bachelors and masters degree from Northwestern, Hollee headed to Duke University School of Law. She graduated in 1999 and began a four-year stint as a litigation associate at a large Pittsburgh law firm. After her first son was born in 2002, Temple returned to her firm part-time before joining the WVU faculty the next year.
In 2008, Hollee celebrated ten years of marriage with John Temple, a journalism professor and author of two narrative non-fiction books. She is constantly amused and amazed by her feisty red-headed sons: Gideon, nine (who is raising eyebrows around Morgantown by convincing his classmates to root for the rival Pitt Panthers), and Henry, six (who once swallowed a penny while in timeout for putting dangerous objects in his mouth). Hollee starts every legal writing class with a blaring music video (she tells her students it's because she's the rock star of legal writing but it's really to wake them up), and she often brings down the house with her karaoke rendition of Dusty Springfield's Son of a Preacher Man. If she's not teaching, speaking, grading, writing or hanging with the family, she's probably doing yoga.

5 Signs He is a Womaniser
By Meghna Mukherjee | posted Feb 18th 2013 at 11:05AM
Be careful about the men you hang around with
Is he too pricey?
The easiest sign to know whether your man is a womaniser is the way he picks you up. The womaniser is a kind of an alpha male. He will come up with everything cheesy. The way he talks about his car, or boasts about his status! Look out for the bright clothes or the jewellery around his neck.
His words don't equal his actions
If he isn't living up to what he tells you, then surely he is a womaniser! For example, if he tells you that he loves you and would like to introduce you to his family, but haven't done it yet – you need to watch out.
He loves to do a lot of late nights
If your man is not interested to hang out with you only late at night, you need to be careful. A guy who really wants to be with you will also see you for a lunch date or maybe shopping over the weekends — but if he is only interested to take you out at night, you need to reconsider your relationship with him.
Overly compliments you
Every woman feels nice and appreciated when she is complimented — but if it gets too much and he is falling over you every time he meets you, you need to think about it seriously. The moment a guy highlights every aspect of your appearance and personality, it's a top sign that he is a womaniser.
Never calls you after you hook up
If you've just met a guy and been with him for a day or two, and then he suddenly disappears from your life, then he is surely a womaniser. Girls, you need to be careful about the men you choose to hang around with. This act of his means that he isn't really interested to get serious about a particular woman, but just likes to have fun.

Cindy Sheehan: Close the Window, I Feel a Draft
by Cindy Sheehan
There is a sort of conventional "wisdom" among some people who are against the chaos and confusion of an occupation that gets more nightmarish by the minute, that a forced conscription would end the war quickly. These same people see it as a panacea to get the college students and their parents out protesting, like during the Vietnam war.
Brent Budowsky: Iraq War Longer Than U.S. Involvement In WWII. Time for Regionwide Middle East Peace Initiative
by Brent Budowsky
The tragic milestone has arrived, the Iraq War has lasted longer than American involvement in the Second World War. The President tells us that that many more days of bloodshed remain in what believes is a permanent war.
Larry Beinhart: The Blame Industry
by Larry Beinhart, author of Wag the Dog and Fog Facts
When things go wrong, someone will be blamed.
It's not a question of should, or if it's right or if it's good. It's what will happen. Iraq has gone wrong. Someone will be blamed.
The "I" Word. Should Bush be Impeached? You Tell Us

Here we are, as the Iraqi horror story deteriorates into a living Hell.

Bush Should Issue Pardons for Our Troops and Iraqi Civilians, not Turkeys
This morning, George Bush followed Thanksgiving tradition by sparing a pair of turkeys from slaughter. "I'm happy to report that (the turkeys) have many tomorrows ahead of them," he announced in a speech today. "I am granting a full presidential pardon so that they can live out their lives as safe as can be."
Stephen T. Gheen: It Was . . . Was It?
by Stephen T. Gheen
A multitude of articles has appeared to explain the Democratic Party's success in the 2006 mid term elections. From TPJ's perspective, most of what is being written looks at a particular slice of the polling to reach overly broad conclusions. For example: the articles below, with their central thesis, have appeared:
BuzzFlash Mailbag for November 22, 2006
BuzzFlash Note: Look for the next Mailbag to appear Monday.
Subject: Let's Give Thanks
Thank you, America! We can celebrate our first victories in the War on Fear this Thanksgiving! We have taken the first huge steps by changing our government. Perhaps the next front could be the Corporate Media, which appears to be running on fumes and completely oblivious to the fact that WE'RE NOT BUYING IT ANYMORE! They will go away when we stop supporting their advertisers, and when we turn them off altogether. As always, we the people have the power of the purse.

Jim Webb overturned the money tables in the Temple this week, while telling the Democrats what needs to be done for our national salvation.
Steven Jonas: The BushGuide to Defining Victory in Iraq
by Steven Jonas, MD, MPH
As is well known, President Bush bobs and weaves a lot in describing and defining his positions on various matters. (If he were a Democrat, what he does would be labeled "flip-flopping" by the media, but he ain't, and it ain't either.) I decided that it would be very helpful to readers of BuzzFlash to have a series of guides designed to help us follow what he talks about and actually does. And so, about two weeks ago, in this space I published the "BushGuide to Combating Terrorism." We now turn to the issue of defining "victory" in Iraq. Over time, Bush has offered many different definitions of this concept. For maximum utility, then, we will present as many of them as I can remember, with a note for each as to whether it might still be useful. Since George Bush is a man of simplicity itself, we will present his Guide in the simplest of terms. And so:

Adnan Patrawala's alleged murder opens up a can of worms for social networking sites. Here's how you can stay safe online
Adnan Patrawala's Orkut scrapbook has been receiving condolence messages by the minute. Fellow orkuteers have been writing in to share the grief of the family of the 16-year-old boy from Mumbai, who was allegedly kidnapped and killed for a ransom of Rs. 2 crore. One theory is that it is through Orkut that Adnan met his 'kidnappers' turned killers. A grim reminder that all is not fun on social networking sites.
Popular sites
Orkut, Facebook, Hi5, Myspace, Tagged, and Friendster are the popular networking sites. As you read this, here's some information just to show the size of online communities. A survey conducted by ComScore, a global Internet information provider that studies consumer behaviour, in June 2007, shows that myspace.com has had more than 114 million users globally (above the age of 15), facebook registered 52.2 million visitors, tagged.com clocked in 13.2 million visitors and orkut recorded 24.1 million users.
Finding old friends from school or hometown has never been this easy, considering the millions of users online. School and college groups have made thousands of friends find one another. As with any new development, there are a few pitfalls and some grave ones at that.
Manage your profile cleverly so that you don't leave room for cyber stalking or misuse of personal information. Networking sites do enlist security measures but how often do we read them before we sign up?
* Do not give away details of age, home address, work or personal telephone numbers, credit card and pan card numbers.
* Sites like facebook allow you to set your profile for limited viewing. This helps cut the clutter.
* Do not post personal pictures as far as possible lest you want them misused online.
* If you must post pictures, upload them on online albums and choose the setting 'private albums.' Only those users whom you have invited will see the pictures.
* Make new friends online but if you do decide to meet them offline, inform your close friends and family members of your whereabouts. Choose a public meeting place during the day and make sure you are accompanied by some of your trusted friends.
* While creating your profile, post only those details that do not reveal too much about you. You may modify the profile later on and remove personal details but the older versions of the webpage may still have those details. It's tough to remove the footprints online.
* No one can tell your future if you share your date of birth, name, phone number and other personal details. Don't divulge them.
* Don't send forwards received through social community sites.

Not sure it needs to even be mentioned that we missed our very early 9 o clock train considering we got to bed at around 6. We still had to check out though, so we rushed around to get all our stuff packed which was all over the room (Becky likes to mark her territory with extensions and nails, and my snacks are everywhere).

text: Arkansas defensive tackle Alfred Davis thought back to middle school as he tried to put the Razorbacks' current dilemma in perspective Monday. His school's basketball team got off to a bad start on year, losing four straight games. But Davis didn't focus on what went wrong in the losses. He remembered what happened afterward, when three teammates stopped showing up for practices.

DeMarcus Ware LB DEN 6 months ago
Ware has an illness but is considered probable to play against the Dolphins, ESPN's Jeff Legwold reports.
He was added to the injury report Saturday, but it does not sound like he is in danger of missing this week's game.
DeMarcus Ware LB DEN 6 months ago
Ware had seven tackles, including one sack and three tackles for a loss, as well as a forced fumble during Sunday's 22-7 loss to the Rams.
Ware was nearly unstoppable Sunday, increasing his season sack-total to nine, which puts him in a tie for eighth in the NFL.
DeMarcus Ware LB DEN 7 months ago
Ware picked up his eighth sack of the season during Sunday's loss to the Patriots.
Ware came into Sunday's game having already beaten last year's mark of six sacks, and he is well on his way to posting the eighth double-digit sack total of his career.
DeMarcus Ware LB DEN 7 months ago
Ware had a season-high three sacks during Sunday's win over the 49ers.
Ware was an absolute beast Sunday, increasing his season sack total to seven in six games, putting him tied for second in the league behind teammate Von Miller, who had two sacks Sunday to bring his total to eight.
DeMarcus Ware LB DEN 7 months ago
Ware picked up his fourth sack of the season during Sunday's win over the Jets.
Ware has at least a half-sack in all but one game this season, as he continues to be a solid addition to the Broncos' pass rush, which is being led by Von Miller, who had two more sacks Sunday to bring his season total to six.
DeMarcus Ware LB DEN 8 months ago
Ware had three tackles, including one sack, during Sunday's win over the Cardinals.
Ware now has 3.5 sacks in four games this season, a solid total on the opposite side of Von Miller, who has three sacks in his last three games.
DeMarcus Ware LB DEN 8 months ago
Ware had two tackles, including a sack, during Sunday's loss to the Seahawks.
Ware now has 2.5 sacks through three games, though fantasy owners will need to look for a different source of sacks in Week 4, as the Broncos head out on bye before taking on the Cardinals in Week 5.
DeMarcus Ware LB DEN 9 months ago
Ware had two tackles, including 1.5 sacks, during Sunday's season-opener against the Colts.
Ware was brought to Denver in the offseason to help bolster the pass-rush opposite Von Miller and he did just that Sunday. With Miller on a bit of a play-count following January surgery to fix a torn ACL, Ware was dominant and appears well on his way to yet another double-digit sack season.
DeMarcus Ware LB DEN 10 months ago1 Comment
DeMarcus Ware said he feels "better than I did the last two years going into the season."
DeMarcus Ware LB DEN 1 year ago
Broncos agreed to terms with DE DeMarcus Ware, formerly of the Cowboys, on a three-year, $30 million contract.

Famous alligator gets new home
Officials with Oklahoma's G.W. Exotic Animal Park said workers extracted a celebrity alligator from a backyard pool and brought him to the park.
Joe Schreibvogel, director of the animal park, said friends and relatives of Richard Beamon called park workers to come take the 43-year-old alligator, named Albert, after Beamon died at age 69 Wednesday, The Oklahoman reported.
Park workers said stories from Beamon's family indicate the alligator has appeared on both small and large screens, with roles in the films
Eraser and
Undercover Blues as well as a Toyota commercial.
Schreibvogel said the 12-foot gator, which workers estimated to weigh more than 800 pounds, had been living in Beamon's southeastern Oklahoma backyard for about eight years and seemed healthy.
He's the biggest I've ever seen, Schreibvogel said.
I'm shocked he made it through the cold temperatures.

Ottorino Respighi (1879-1936): Streichquartette
- Ottorino Respighi (1879-1936)
- Streichquartette
- Stella Doufexis
- CD i **;
- Künstler: Stella Doufexis, New Hellenic Quartet
- Label: BIS, DDD, 2003
- Bestellnummer: 4896186
- Erscheinungstermin: 17.7.2006
ProduktinfoTo judge by concert programmes from around the world, Respighi is something of a classical 'one-hit wonder'. The Pines (and the Fountains) of Rome is played time and again, but most other works are rarely heard. If they had been performed more often, our opinion of Respighi as a composer would probably be quite different. The string quartets are a case in point: expertly put together by a composer who himself was a string player, they are far removed from his flamboyant, often grandiloquent symphonic writing. Here, instead, the cool, subtly and tastefully enunciated discourse of the four instruments reminds us that 'deafening thought can also be found in a whisper', to quote the liner notes by Philippos Tsalahouris. The two string quartets on this disc are separated by some 15 years, the Quartet in D minor being an early work composed during Respighi's stay in Germany as a student. The Quartetto dorico, on the other hand, is a work of the mature composer, written more or less at the same time as the Pines of Rome. At the same time, it is a new departure in Respighi's music, as a result of his discovery of the compositional possibilities offered by the old Gregorian modes. This disc also marks the first recording on BIS of mezzo-soprano Stella Doufexis, who joins the New Hellenic Quartet in the 'lyrical poem' Il Tramonto (The Sunset) for mezzo-soprano and string quartet, a setting of the Italian version of a poem by Shelley. The New Hellenic Quartet will be known for their dedicated advocacy of the music of their countryman Nikos Skalkottas. This has resulted in two discs on BIS, about which the critic in American Record Guide wrote of 'the New Hellenic Quartet's passionate and brilliant performances' and their 'downright heroic' playing.
