I was looking into the mini-pill online since my post partum appointment is today (procrastinate much?) and found a couple things saying that if you had GD while pregnant and you take the progestin-only pill, it increases your chances of getting Type II Diabetes. The low-dose combination pill doesn't seem to have the same effect (if I read that article correctly).
Having never heard that (GD and Diabetes never really being on my radar before), I thought I'd share it here. We're going the condom route, I guess.

I like it a lot now, and find it nearly impossible to go back to windows 7. I do have to admit, for nearly a year I avoided using Windows 8 merely out of bias colored by internet opinion and "RAWR! IT"S NEW DON'T LIKE!", and there were some legitimate issues I had with it as well, but 8.1 solved pretty much all of that.
Posted 18 November 2013 - 17:43
I have zero problems with it.. I'm not a fan of the style either, but I've yet to see a desktop OS with a visual theme that I've liked out of the box enough where I didn't fiddle with it. 7 was the same way, good but needed tweaking, had to get rid of that pastel blue stuff all over the place plus a few other minor tweaks here and there. Poll needs an "It's ok but I'm not going to gush about it" option. Visuals aside, just as productive as before, maybe throw on a start menu replacer if that floats your boat, but still prefer it to the alternatives by a wide margin.
Posted 18 November 2013 - 17:59
Didn't like it at first, but after a few days of using Windows 8 full time, I started to like it. The only problems I have with it is, the fact that the taskbar is semi-transparent, which is kinda inconstant from the rest of the Ul and the fact they randomly decided to remove a ton of networking features from the Ul.

Updated Remote Contact System req.
I'm really looking forward to this revision, but would it also be possible to create a tab for PvP specific missions and contacts? While i enjoy seeing Mckenzie Calhoun in game, I'm tired of always seeing his name and the other PvP contact in my regular mission list, especially when i do not play PvP at all.
As your're adding a tab for UGC, Please add a tab for PvP .
Also, as we're on the subject, would it be possible to change the Mission Tracker log so that quests change depending on the sector you are in? As an example:
i am in sirius sector with the following:
* Vulcan Sector - 2 quests
* Orion Sector - 1 quest
* Risa Sector - 3 quests
in Beta Ursae, i have:
* Bajor Sector - 1 quest
* Cardassia Sector - 3 quests
* Kalandra Sector - no quests
I then Transwarp to Alpha Centari where i have:
* Teneebia Sector Map - 6 quests
* Sierra Sector Map - 3 quests
* Vendor Sector Map - 1 quests
Now if i start from sol system, what i envision is that as i pass between clusters and sectors, my mission Tracker automatically updates, placing active quests for the area on the top, (with the currently-selected primary always in spot 1 - regardless of sector). this way, the player is easily able to see available quests for the area without needing to stop to open the log file (Episode List) and select the quest to be set as primary....
Hope these two options are possible,
|All times are GMT -7. The time now is 07:58 AM.

Customer Reviews
New Version
I liked the older version of this app better. I don't feel like there is enough information to help with doing the work- I knew exactly what I was doing on the older version, but this one seems to assume you know what everything is..and I don't.
In general, it was a great app to use. I resize my art images all the time- but now I'm struggling, and having a hard time finding support to work with it. (all the tutorials seem to be for the older version).
Disappointed in Update
The new app icon stinks, loved the old one that actually fit the app. Duh. It was a red bucket for "Image Bucket" and the new app is so simplified its not a good an app. Miss the old one and wish I could downgrade. Not an improvement, don't upgrade if you read this in time.

The firm is offering programmes for the physically challenged
Kochi: Keltron, which ushered in electronic revolution in the State much before the IT wave swept Kerala, is into a new sphere of action that has been left almost untouched.
From attempting to evolve the attitude of the people to a friendly mode for the physically challenged to offering new training programmes for them to come up in life, the public sector unit is creating a new social revolution.
Though the legislations insist that all public spaces including shops, hotels, restaurants and theatres and work places should be accessible to the physically challenged, in reality, the law is yet to be implemented in its true spirit.
The issue came to the fore at a five star hotel in the city sometime ago, which hosted an international conference of the physically challenged persons.
The delegates had a tough time moving up to the conference venue on their own, as there were steps in the patio of the hotel and no ramps along which the wheelchair-bound delegates could move, remembers C.P. Somasekharan, coordinator of the Centre for the Rehabilitation of the Disabled, Keltron.
It was also the case with a hotel at Vyttila near the national highway.
As the delegates took up the issue with the managements of the hotels, they yielded and ramps were later made at the hotels for the physically challenged, he remembers.
Mr. Somasekharan laments that society is yet to fully take note of the difficulties faced by the physically challenged, especially those who have been disabled due to accidents.
"Imagine the plight of a physically challenged person who has to get down at Ravipuram junction.
He cannot get off the bus as a normal person can do. He needs ramps, wheel chair to move about... . Unfortunately, most of these facilities are not available here," says Mr. Somasekharan.
Keltron Controls, Aroor, is into the job of giving proper plan for an obstacle-free environment, which includes public places and individual homes. The job involves modification of the environment of the physically challenged person, arranging vocational rehabilitation and even suitable placements.
Come February, Keltron will start the vocational training programme for 90 select persons. Training programmes for maintenance of wheelchairs and accessories in fabrication and ancillary shops, units making special footwear for the physically challenged and diabetics and computer are in the offing.
Plans are also afoot to find placements for the trained hands as the Central Government has reserved seats for these sections, explained Mr. Somasekharan.

I decided to lay out what Heroic Gear Night is, there just isn't enough space in those damned calendar events to lay anything out.
First and foremost HGN is set up for people looking to get gear, I set it up because the first wave of people that joined Bomb Squad after Cataclysm launched all came up together, ran our normals together and then ran our heroics together and now are running our raids together, and now the second wave of new comers are out there hitting 85, maybe they are intimidated by all the established players or too shy to ask for help (or just don't care, which I understand too) so they are just running random pug heroics or not running them at all.
I was in a guild that clearly tiered their players and almost actively worked against helping gear up the ones that weren't in the clique. I don't want to be in a guild like that again. So I wanted to make sure that anyone that wants to be taught the runs, shown the dungeons and helped gear up is getting the help they need.
At the moment I am power leveling a Paladin Tank that I will gear up and then use as the Heroic Gear Night tank since really the thing that can make a heroic dungeon nearly impossible is an under geared tank. However till then, look at who is signed up and if there are 4 people and none of them are a tank you won't get in, as that night we will have to find a tank to fill in that 5 spot.
At the moment, the tanks in our guild (and I know aren't too squishy for heroics) are Pownce, Leutak, Uncola, Thrawn, Karakus and Supergum. So if you see one of them signed up you know we have our tank.
Healers gearing, as long as the tank is well geared isn't as important, therefore we can run new healers in as healers. People that want to be a main tank will have to run in their off spec until we get you enough gear to play the tank role. It's just the nature of the beast. However you will get to roll need on anything that drops that is an upgrade for any specs you are playing.
I do have to point out, now that I have switched to a rotation of dungeons HGN is no longer get your VP night. If everyone is good with it, we can run the dungeon on the rotation and then run a random to get our VP, I'm perfectly ok with that, but first and foremost we are there to run the dungeon listed for that day.
Now with all that said, I would not only love, but strongly encourage a second person to run a group too. Typically these gear nights end up having one person in them that needs gear and the other 4 are raid speced players looking for VP. Maybe if we split those 4 into two groups of 2 and then have 3 new players in each we could gear up more people faster. I won't feel slighted or like your trying to steal my thunder. I mean, Rawfle already promised me Officer, you can't steal that from me. Schmucks.

'Euro general' wife Maria Fe dela Paz charged
MANILA, Philippines—The Office of the Ombudsman on Thursday filed before the Sandiganbayan criminal charges against a retired general and his wife for violating bank regulations and retirement rules of the Philippine National Police (PNP) in the infamous "Euro Generals" case in 2008.
Acting Ombudsman Orlando Casimiro ordered separate charges filed against former PNP comptroller Eliseo dela Paz and wife Maria Fe for allegedly smuggling 105,000 euros (P6.9 million) during an official PNP trip to Russia in October 2008.
The Dela Paz couple was charged with violating Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas Circular No. 507, which requires domestic and foreign travellers to declare foreign currency equivalent to $10,000 when entering or leaving the Philippines.
The retired general was also charged with "prolonging the performance of duties and powers," penalized under the Revised Penal Code. The Ombudsman said Dela Paz pushed through with an official trip even while he was due to retire within the travel date.
The Ombudsman's investigation showed that the Dela Paz couple "did not declare [euros] in their possession" as they left the Philippines with a PNP delegation attending the 77th Interpol General Assembly in St. Petersburg, Russia.

Property Details
House, 1 Bedrooms, 1 Baths, 2 Sleeps
Simple pleasures, barefoot luxury, private spaces. Old world charm, casual elegance, thoughtful amenities. Tranquility, serenity and peacefulness to refresh and recharge your spirit. A perfect spot to indulge in the ultimate of luxuries where time simple becomes unimportant. Now that's vacation and that's Baku!
Now offering brand new, private beach bungalows that are unique to the Vallarta / Riviera Nayarit coastline --- they are literally on the beach, "feet in the sand" on the beach. In total, Baku offers six spectacular private, guesthouses ideal for 2 persons each, or travel with friends or family for ideal accommodations up to 8 persons. The beach houses feature king size bed, double vanities and private dressing area; queen size beds are offered in the beach view guessthouses - Casa de Vistas and Casa de Jardins. Each guesthouse offers a fully equipped kitchen, spacious bathrooms, lovely living rooms, palapa covered terrazas and incredible views – all on a quiet beach in the quaint fishing village of La Cruz de Huanacaxtle, just north of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. La Cruz is also the home of the new world-class Riviera Nayarit Marina.
Early morning sunrises paint the skies over the majestic Sierra Madre mountains while incredible sunsets wash the foothills behind us at dusk. Across the bay, Puerto Vallarta's lights twinkle like glistening gems in the clear night skies, whales play in the warm ocean waters, sailboats snuggle into La Cruz's calm harbor, fishermen arrive safely back at port with their fresh catch of the day. Walk out your door barefoot with your morning coffee and put your feet in the water's edge. Catch a day of sun by the pool amidst tropical gardens or enjoy a restful siesta in a shaded hammock. What could be more heavenly!
The guesthouses at Baku , meaning a place of tranquility and serenity, are meticulously designed and luxuriously appointed with the casual elegance of Vallarta lifestyle where you'll find many of the interior appointments hand-crafted from natural materials. Pebble designs, hand painted Talavera tiles, hand hammered copper sinks, rustic stone marble from the Yucatan, shell designs, bamboo crafted doors, thatched roofs from palm fronds (palapas), hand-crafted furniture and original artwork create a welcoming, luxurious living space with a rustic flair. The natural beauty of the outside environment touches your inside living space with endless view of the bay, mountains, beach and gardens. You'll find candles to create a romantic ambiance at night while you can count on all the conveniences of North American living as well – luxurious linens, hot water, electricity, flushing toilets, purified water, fully equipped kitchens, etc.
The beach at Baku offers you a delightfully tranquil environment to get away from it all. There are no jet skis whizzing by; there are no vendors selling you their wares; there is little to no traffic except for Sundays when families often head to the beach for the day. Simply said, it is a natural, undeveloped beach with a touch of wild thrown in … a perfect spot to capture a feeling of being totally by youself and away from it all.
Baku is located on the north coast of Bahia de Banderas (the western hemisphere's 2nd largest bay) in the pueblo of La Cruz de Huanacaxtle away from the hustle-bustle of the more popular international resort destination of Puerto Vallarta. The sleepy village of La Cruz de Huanacaxtle is approximately 15 miles north from Vallarta and Puerto Vallarta's international airport. Baku offers plenty of private spaces situated on more than 30,000 sq. ft. of private property away from gated condo communities and traditional resort lodgings. It is American owned and operated by Marianne Jacobs and Mike Loesch.
Join us at Baku and you'll be touched by the romance of living in the tropics and the enchantment of the sea while enjoying a simpler, slower-paced life in a small Mexican village. While many guests often forget what time it is and/or simply stop caring about the time, we promise … we'll get you to the airport on time for your return flight!

Genuine Mexico, Unique Getaway for two
About the Owner
Guestbook comments from the owner
Peaceful and beautiful. The lulling sounds of the ocean, children playing in the distance, birds chirping - all made this a restful and enjoyable stay. Marianne and Mike provided helpful info and answered any questions we had. The place is beautifully furnished and landscaped which all help with the attitude and atmosphere of a peaceful haven. Plenty to do - or plenty of opportunity to do nothing - just what we needed. Martie and Blas, New Mexico

Genuine Mexico, Unique Getaway for two
A prefect vacation spot
Bucerias is 15 minutes by bus and even better, an hour (give or take) down a beautiful stretch of beach. There is a real synergy to the town of la Cruz that keeps my wife and me wanting to go back year after year. We always feel safe, welcome, happy and relaxed.
At night, looking out over the bay and seeing the lights come on downtown, puts everything into perspective and there is no better feeling that being in La Cruz. We highly recommend spending your vacation time at Casa Baku.

Activity and Interests
Whether you're up for lazy days or "not so" lazy days, you'll find it's your choice at Baku. Take a 5 minute stroll down the beach to one of the local palapa restaurants for an ice cold cerverza (beer) and "huachinango entero" (grilled whole red snapper) or stroll through the village to get your favorite homemade ice cream. Visit the local Wednesday tiangi's (markets), pick out your fresh catch of the day at the "Pescaderia" (fish market), listen to an evening of live music talent, dine out at one of the local restaurants featuring European, Italian, Mexican, German, French, American or Mediterrean cuisine, visit an art gallery featuring Huichol handcrafted art (local native Indians), or participate in yoga or Spanish classes. Swimming, beach-combing, walking, snorkeling and sunbathing are popular activities as well. And then, of course, there is the favorite sport of simply "doing nothing" with the exception of curling up in a shady, cozy spot and merely soaking up the beauty and tranquility surrounding you.
Nearby Puerto Vallarta offers world class shopping, first class dining, Mexican fiestas, mariachis, numerous art galleries featuring famous Mexican artists and more. Or head out to the northern tip of the Bay to Punta de Mita for a delightful day on the beaches sitting under palapas, where the shopping comes to you. You can find almost every Mexican craft available there - hand-woven blankets, jewelry, hand-crafted wood objects, talavera bowls and platters, leather goods, etc. Or enjoy a romantic evening at one of our favorite restaurants, El Dorado, where food is outstanding, service is remarkable, and sunsets are exceptional.
The whole Bay area is steeped with opportunities for snorkeling, fishing, whale watching, sailing, swimming with dolphins, parasailing, scuba diving, eco-tours, jungle adventures, kayaking, boogie boarding, jungle adventures, horseback riding, golfing at six different courses, hot springs and more. The list seems to be endless.
Upon returning from a day of adventuring, Baku offers you awesome views, private spaces and gentle sea breezes. At night the sounds of gentle waves will lull you off to sweet, peaceful dreams. So whether you're fancy is watching sunrises paint the skies glorious colors, soaking up the sun, lingering over conversations with candles glowing in the night or simply gazing at the twinkling stars, we're sure you'll be soothed by the tranquility and serenity of Baku.

Prostate play / pegging? Girls: What would you think?
if your guy asked you to try prostate play / pegging? Would you think he might be gay?
Most Helpful Opinion
Here are the things that spike my gay alarm:
1. He doesn't find me or any other woman physically enticing.
2. He talks with female mannerisms and uses a higher pitched voice.
3. He is more concerned about designer clothes than I am.
4. he has slept with a man.
5. He loves shopping and matching my makeup with my outfit.
6. Tiny pooches and cats that belong to him.
If you are curious about prostate play I see no harm since you want to have new sexual experiences. That is not gay unless you want to do it with a man.
Haha. He has slept with a man. Yea, he might be gay.
Thanks for best answer!
What Girls Said 7
What Guys Said 1
fwiw...many, many men love anal play but they will not ask for it lest they be thought gay. Its a shame because anal play can be amazing. I gave up caring what people think of my sexuality years ago simply because the people with the loudest opinion have the dullest sex lives.
That is a great answer so do you consider yourself bi
Not really. I have played with the occasional male but it never included anal play beyond fingers. I consider men to be a great party favor but not an object of primary interest. I prefer that if I am playing with a guy, a woman be included (so a couple is OK but a single male really doesn't do much for me).
Have an opinion?

From the Publisher"The students really appreciate the excellent print quality, all the great pictures and their layout and how the pictures relate to the words. And last but not least, it's affordable. They can't believe they are getting such a well done book for a "fair" price. Compared to other authors who are charging an arm and a leg for less substantial works, you are a diamond in the ruff."

"Kobré's text got me off the ground. No kidding. Since then, I have bought every edition and handed the last copy off to somebody who could really use it."
-Jim MacMillan, Philadelphia Daily News, Associated Press 2005 Pulitzer Team
"Kobré has inspired young photojournalists for many years through his teaching and watershed textbook about photojournalism, Photojournalism: The Professionals' Approach.

Catch of the Day: Outdoor Channel Reels in Two New Fishing Shows Featuring Tom Brokaw, Michael Keaton & More
TEMECULA, Calif., July 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Outdoor Channel (Nasdaq: OUTD), America's leader in Outdoor TV, today announced two new fishing shows. "Buccaneers and Bones" and "Fishing University" will come to Outdoor Channel in 2011. The two established shows, which include celebrated entertainers and lauded hosts, will provide every angler — aficionado and newcomer alike — a chance to dive into the exciting world of fishing.
Outdoor Channel's new slate of fishing shows will complement its already robust roster of top industry talent and stars. "Buccaneers and Bones" will feature world-renowned television anchor Tom Brokaw, Emmy and Golden Globe-nominated actor Michael Keaton and Friday Night Lights' Zach Gilford as they explore the wonders of bone fishing and tarpon fishing around the world. "Fishing University," with host Charlie Ingram, will complement the other action-packed fishing programs by providing highly-informative episodes on the skills needed to fish like a pro.
"We continue to provide our viewers with unique, compelling shows, all of which will be broadcast in 100% native HD, bringing the visual power and thrill of fishing to audiences across the U.S.," said Jeff Wayne, Executive Vice President of Programming, Outdoor Channel. "We regularly include iconic personalities in our programs and the number of outdoor-loving celebrities on the network has definitely increased. For our viewers, this is a unique opportunity to see another side of these celebrities. For Outdoor Channel, this is an opportunity to chart new ground in the fishing category."
New Shows:
Buccaneers and Bones
Formerly on ESPN2, "Buccaneers and Bones" is presented in partnership with the Bonefish & Tarpon Trust (BTT) and features a collection of luminary anglers including Tom Brokaw, Michael Keaton, Zach Gilford, Patagonia outdoor clothing company founder Yvon Chouinard, saltwater angling pioneer Lefty Kreh, and acclaimed photographer R. Valentine Atkinson. The series will be narrated by Brokaw and will explore the wonders of bone fishing and tarpon fishing through the eyes of this all-star cast who have each devoted a significant part of their lives to conservation causes. The cast sets off from San Pedro Island in Belize and head into the famed turquoise flats of Ambergris Caye, Caye Caulker and Whipray Caye in pursuit of three legendary species: bonefish, tarpon and permit. Along the way, viewers will be activated to do their part to preserve these species so that future generations can experience all that these great game fish have to offer.
Fishing University
Formerly on Versus, "Fishing University" is an educational fishing show with the goal of helping viewers learn success-oriented fishing skills and refinements. Each thirty-minute program will be viewed as an intensive course in one important aspect of fishing. Likewise, by watching all of the programs, viewers will have learned and acquired all of the skills that are needed to approach fishing with a new level of confidence and skill. "Fishing University" is an enlightening series that reveals the expertise behind the sport of fishing.

Katy Perry Visits Madagascar In Support Of UNICEF
In this handout provided by UNICEF, UNICEF supporter Katy Perry joins... News PhotoArts Culture and Entertainment,Celebrities,Child,Elementary School,Horizontal,Jumping,Katy Perry,Madagascar,Rope,UNICEF,Village,VisitPhotographer HandoutCollection: Getty Images Entertainment 2013 UNICEFAMPIHAONANA, MADAGASCAR - APRIL 5: In this handout provided by UNICEF, UNICEF supporter Katy Perry joins a game of jump rope with children, during a visit to a primary school in the village of Ampihaonana on April 5, 2013 in Analanjirofo Region. An education is an incredible opportunity here, where children and teachers walk 45 minutes just to get to school,' said Ms. Perry, during the visit. The school was previously destroyed by a cyclone and rebuilt by the community, with UNICEF support. From 4 to 6 April 2013 in Madagascar, internationally acclaimed American singer/songwriter and UNICEF supporter Katy Perry visited UNICEF programmes in health, nutrition, water, sanitation and hygiene, education, child protection and youth development. The visit helped to focus attention on the situation of children in the country, one of the poorest in the world that is still recovering from a political crisis and an ensuing coup in 2009. Currently, some 82 per cent of Malagasies are unable to afford basic needs and services, including food and healthcare. Rates of under-five mortality have decreased but are still unacceptably high, with preventable conditions, such as malaria, diarrhoeal diseases and respiratory infections, causing the majority of deaths. Fully half of the country's children are stunted from chronic malnutrition, a condition that causes often lifelong physical and mental impairment. Maternal mortality, also high, takes the lives of eight women each day. Severely limited access to safe drinking water and improved sanitation facilities, the increased frequency and intensity of natural disasters, and declining public funding for education are also impeding the ability of Malagasy children to survive and thrive. UNICEF has appealed for over US$14.9 million to support addressing these shortfalls throughout 2013. (Photo by UNICEF via Getty Images)

Kyatchi strikes out and hits some home runs
By Emily Weiss
Instead, I'd suggest the coconut crème brûlée or a drink called the Himalaya that tastes rather like it. Om has a strong drinks program, actually. Two cocktails I'd definitely order again: the Agni, made with vodka, lime, and Thai chiles; and the Karma, made with whiskey, cardamom, and cream that tasted like a spicy, butterscotch candy with a pleasant, chest-warming effect. Service was polished and helpful, though perhaps a little paternal when I tried to order a rose lassi and had my request flatly denied:
"What do you mean, 'No'?" I asked our waiter.
"Don't order that," he advised. "It tastes like the smell of your grandma's bathroom."
401 First Ave. N., Minneapolis
"I've had rose petal syrup before. I'd still like to try it. I'm willing to take the risk."
A few minutes later, our waiter returned with my friends' after-dinner drinks and, for me, a sample of the chai. (Unintentionally or not, he never brought the lassi.) Still, the chai was delicious: heavy on the cardamom, with a soothing, malty finish and a strong caffeine kick. Had the lights been dimmed and a Bollywood soundtrack projected, who knows how the night might have finished?

"Chalk and board"
Reviewed by Anna Grace / Apr 02, 2012
Erase the board and don't
OneShot!! is inspired by green chalkboards and our times at school. Like then, now our task is to erase the board, wipe all the chalk out from the chalkboard but now it's harder than it ever was. You should accomplish the task without rubbing the same area more than once and get more than a 80% to pass to the next level.
How to play? Just drag your finger around the chalk drawing in order to erase it but take into account that as the game progresses, the chalk will be in different shapes and sizes and will get more difficult. If you don't pass the level, you can repeat the process as many times as you want until you get more than the 80%. Besides not rubbing twice on the same spot, don't release your finger from the chalkboard when you're doing the task or you'll get fewer points.
Mi Studio is the developer of OneShot!! their first application and one original game for Android, with 48 levels so far and more to come in the next updates. Fun and challenging, play for a little while every day and enjoy reliving your school days.Developer's original description available here
Intended for: kids aged 3-7
What can my kids learn?
Your kids can learn to recognize different shapes in real-life context. Such shapes include triangle, circle, and rectangle and other objects too like apple and flower.
The game does not overload your children with too many audio and video stimuli. It has a simple goal of delighting children by letting them see different objects and allowing them to scrub according to the shapes of those objects.

1. Do not rub the same area twice
