State board disciplines Corpus Christi doctor for failing to be responsive as patient's condition worsens
CORPUS CHRISTI - The state medical board recently disciplined a Corpus Christi doctor for failing to be responsive and available when a patient's condition worsened.
Dr. Defeng Chen received a public reprimand and has been ordered to complete 32 hours of classes on critical care, ethics and risk management, according to Texas Medical Board documents.
Chen could not be reached for comment Monday.
The board found that Chen failed to respond timely in person when he was on-call or when he was requested by emergency room or hospital staff regarding a patient with heart problems.The board said Chen should have evaluated the patient quicker after nurses warned him the patient's condition was deteriorating.

Rails has been a really good learning experience for me over the past
few years, but with Rails 3 it's suffering from severe Second System
Effect, and is really just turning into the Ruby version of JBoss,
trying to be all things to all people. Admittedly, it's still in

It's still a really fast way to build CRUD webapps with REST APIs, but

Black Friday Predictions – What to expect this for this year's best deals
Black Friday is almost here, and we at the LogicBUY Team have put our heads together to come up with what we think the best deals will be this year. We post thousands of deals and have years of Black Friday shopping under our belts, and we think this experience gives us a pretty good sense. Of course, be sure to visit LogicBUY where we'll be posting the best deals as they come, and to post your own ideas in the comments if you think you know better than we do.
Laptops and Netbooks
Laptops are one of the most popular Black Friday deals, and they should be plentiful again this year. Dual-core processors have finally become common enough that you'll find them even in budget laptops. Standard 15.6″ machines with AMD's dual-core Fusion E-Series processor or Intel's dual-core Celeron processor can already be found for $299 – on Black Friday, we're predicting these same models could go as low as $199, without giving up features like 802.11n WiFi, roomy hard drives (320GB-500GB) and plenty of RAM (3GB-4GB). Mid-range Core i3-i5 laptops could start from $349-$449 along with AMD quad-core laptops, down from $449-$549. Well spec'd Core i7 models, which currently run $799-$899, may go as low as $649.
Netbooks have cooled in popularity, in large part due to the decreasing price of larger laptops and the emergence of tablets (we'll talk about them more later). However, a 10″-11″ netbook still occupies a niche market between a low-end 15″ laptop and a more expensive 10″ tablet + keyboard dock. Mid-range netbooks can currently be found for about $199 – on Black Friday, you might see a nicer dual-core netbook at that price, with mid-range landing at $149 or less.
Desktops aren't really a hot item these days, but they still tend to provide a little more bang for your buck than most laptops since they don't have to be built for portability. We expect to see a dual-core desktop from a name brand like HP, which currently cost around $300, selling for $219 or less, and possibly bundled with an LCD for not much more. We've already seen 20″ all-in-one desktops retailing for around $300, so it'd be no surprise if a basic all-in-one hit the shelves at $249 this Black Friday. On the other end of the spectrum, we think well spec'd desktops packing Core i7 that would run you $849 today will start at around $649.
Tablets are one of the hottest items this holiday season, and while Apple may not knock off even a penny from the $499 iPad 2 (they did discount the iPad last year, but we wouldn't count on it happening again), there will be a plethora of Android tablets out there for bargain shoppers. Don't expect a discount on the much anticipated $199 Kindle Fire, but we've already seen budget 7″ Android tablets retailing for well under $100, so $69 or even $50 is certainly possible. Both the Motorola Xoom and the Eee Pad Transformer, leading 10″ Android tablets, have recently seen new WiFi 32GB models drop under $400, and we expect to see prices fall as low as $329 for a 10″ tablet from a major name brand on Black Friday.
Apple MacBooks
Apple may not discount its iPad this year, but MacBooks are likely to see a price decrease at the Apple Store. We think you'll see the 13.3″ MacBook Pro get cut from $1199 to $1049, and the new MacBook Air get similarly slashed from $999 to $899. Expect other cuts on various items at the Apple Store too, though it may be possible to find even greater savings through an authorized Apple reseller.
Mobile Phones
Some of the hottest phones out now will see sharp drops by Black Friday, as sale prices converge with the expected release of several premier phones in the coming weeks. Flagship phones like the $299.99 Droid Bionic and even Galaxy S II variants ($199.99-$259.99) may see their prices drop to $99 direct from carrier, with older 4G phones like the Thunderbolt or the original Atrix falling from $100-$150 and hitting the bargain bin at free with a new contract. Apple's $99 8GB iPhone 4 will likely drop that day – we could see $49 new and free refurbished. Prices from resellers could be even cheaper, and will likely be knocking off at least three figures from the newest phones.
HDTVs and Blu-ray players
High definition LCD TVs should see new all time price lows this Black Friday. 32″ 1080p TVs are already at $249 – we might see $199 for this come November 25th. 40″ models could drop from $349 to $299, and 55″ models currently around $699 will likely hit $569 or less. Even bigger bargains may be had at these sizes for 720p HD TVs, if you don't need 1080p. For those of you looking for a premium TV, we expect prices for basic 55″ 3D 1080p LCD TVs to get cut from $1199 to $999 or less, and similar 55″ models with 3D bundles (free Blu-ray movies, 3D glasses, Blu-ray player, etc.) to be priced at around $1199.
Fully featured wireless, 3D ready, internet ready Blu-ray players might cost as little as $75, down from $100 or more today. If you don't need 3D, you'll be able to snag a quality Blu-ray player for $50 or less.
Consoles and Video Games
Black Friday is a great time to pick up a new console or the latest game. In fact, it'll probably be a particularly easy time to do both in one fell swoop – we predict that while the consoles themselves might only see modest discounts, they will often be bundled with free games to make them more tempting. A notable exception could be the Xbox 360 4GB, which we think could be priced to move at $149 (down from $199). If you don't need a new console, you can expect to pick up games from the spring for bargain prices of $10-$15, and new games that currently sell at $59 for just $39 like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Gears of War 3, Battlefield 3, Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception, Batman: Arkham City… you get the idea.
Think we're off on our predictions? Got a prediction of your own for something that we didn't cover? Let us know what you think the best Black Friday deals will be in the comments, and be sure to check out LogicBUY for the best deals this Black Friday and all year round.

Running Gift
RunningGift.net was created out of a necessity for my friends and I to know what running products work and what products don't. For years we have had many conversations about what sneakers to buy, what running gear works better and what the best running gift we each got for Christmas or our birthday was.
|Today's featured running gift:
|Running Gift - 09/26/2012
| I've started running with a 64 OZ Camelback, and I've found it to work pretty good. I was worried about the weight on my back, but I'm really not noticing it. This is a great running gift, and very useful.
It took a couple runs to figure out how to get it adjusted right. I also fill it all the way, then turn it upside down so that the air all goes to the area where the tube comes out, then I suck all the air out through the tube until it's just water. After doing that, there is no sloshing around.
The only thing I don't have nailed yet is that I usually carry 50% water and 50% sports drink for Electrolytes. I'm experimenting with the Succeed S Caps, and that plus water seems to be going OK so far.
|Running Gift - 09/15/2012
So lately I have been getting into some night time running. I kind of like it, but I can go along the same forest trails I usually run in the daytime. Not until I received this perfect running gift from a close friend. The running head lamp is the way to go for night running. At fits it was a little uncomfortable, but once I got used to it, it was great. It has just enough light to see where I'm going but not enough to make it feel like I was driving a car. Great running gift for the night runner!
|Running Gift - 09/10/2012
Running with music really helps on those long runs. One thing I often notice is that if I run to faster music my pace is faster. So it could be a good idea to place a few slow songs in your playlist. The iPod running band is a great running gift for yourself or a friend. Or maybe you get it for your running partner so they take the hint that you don't want to talk to them during runs anymore!
|Runner's iPod Holder
|Running Gift - 09/09/2012
Runners smell. It is a fact. A great running gift you can give (or receive) is some deodorant. It's not a mean gesture, it's a helpful one. Every runner sweats a lot and sometimes their body odor can get out of control without them noticing. A good rule of thumb is that if you can smell yourself, it's bad. So buy a great running gift and get your favorite runner some nice smelling deodorant. Also, check out the commercial, it's real funny.
|Old Spice Deodorant
|Running Gift - 09/08/2012
An Essential Running gift for any runner and a super easy way to give a gift without using much effort is a subscription to Runner's world Magazine is sure to make any runner happy. Runner's World is full of helpful information about diets, nutrition, training, and so much more. I got this gift about 10 years ago and haven't canceled the subscription yet. This is a perfect running gift, and we approve this message!
|Running Gift - 09/06/2012
Wow! I just picked up this this app for my phone and it is the greatest running app I have ever used! And the best part is it's free! I would completely suggest downloading this app on your phone. And if you are looking for the perfect running gift to give someone, just letting them know about this app is great. It has the most accurate GPS I've seen, it records elevation while you are running, tells you how fast your running, how far and how long it took! And keeps all the data on a website for you that can be public or private! You can also link it to your Facebook or twitter! Amazing.
|Running app
|Running Gift - 09/05/2012
Here is a picture of one of my favorite runners, Scott Jurek. He is an ultra marathon runner and has won the Leadville Ultra 100 in Colorado!! This is him running with a member of the Tahrumara tribe in the Copper Canyons, Mexico. These tribesmen have been running long distances for their entire lives. It is the way that they hunt for food and their main source of transportation. If you look closely to the tribesmen's shoes they are nothing but some rubber fastened on by some rope! This shows that minimal running sneakers are a great way to up your distances.
|Minimalist Running Shoe - Brook's
|Running Gift - 09/04/2012
The Run Trainer offers distance-and time-interval settings for speed work and automated mile splits for tempo runs. This is a great runner gift. Its face shows up to four metrics, giving you the usual suspects like pace and distance, but also such things like data as elevation gained. Alerts can be preprogrammed to remind you when to drink during workouts. Another great aspect is that it only has an eight-hour battery.

|Running Gift - 09/03/2012
I've tried a lot of different ways to prevent chafing. I've used different gels, and powders. The best way to absolutely avoid the chafe is to wear spandex shorts. Please don't be a runner who ONLY wears the spandex! You must wear regular shorts on over them. Please see picture as a reference. The gift you should get for your runner is the shorts on the outside! ha ha!

Veil #3
Rucka, Fejzula
I will most certainly be SPOILING!
The images that play such a crucial role on the first page of every issue of Veil #3 don't feel as random as they have, but a few are misleading. This month we open on Cormac singing some ironic lyrics and setting the stage for some grand ritual of magic. The fuel for much of his magic seems to be the same red liquid he used to liquefy a henchman in last months issue. The company he seemingly betrayed is having him watched, but he is keen to their surveillance, and not at all worried about their presence.
However, that perceptiveness goes both ways, as Mr. Scarborough is onto his sorcerer for hire. The business man has guessed that Cormac wants Veil for himself and is trying to pull the proverbial wool over Scarborough's eyes. He has hatched a plan involving special forces and using Cormac as bait to seize Veil.
The rat Cormac tasked with seeking out Veil finds her hiding in a doorway somewhere else in the city. How she has gotten here we can only guess as the last place we, the reader, had seen her was kissing a cop who burst into water afterwards. Interestingly enough, When the blood red rat finds the girl, her own vermin engages it in battle, trying to protect her one would assume. Having dispatched her guardian, the red rat bites her hand, which has an interesting effect.
The rat drains of his red coloring, but her large blue eyes turn crimson. She stumbles to her feet while the rat, freed of it's compulsion, climes into her sleeve and becomes her companion. To be noted, the original guardian wakes up and vanishes into the sewers.
Veil finds her way back to the rundown church that Cormac is hiding in, right past the Special Forces that are waiting for her. Thanks to the rain, they do not see her until she is already past them, and it takes them a few minutes to prepare and call their employer. A few minutes is all it takes for Cormac to spring his trap, binding Veil in chains of fire that violently cause some kind of change or binding.
With only a few moments of bewildered hesitation, the men outside rush in to carry out their orders. Cormac looks exhausted and Veil is a mass huddled in the center of the arcane symbols. The men make to take Veil, only to find that her transformation makes that….difficult.
I found this month's issue to be very brief, but that is just the consequence of the highly visual storytelling. The dialogue, especially dealing with Cormac and Veil is almost negligible, as it is only a few brief sentences and a a hearty helping of arcane gibberish. The transformation feels both rushed and very drastic considering the early nature of the story, but I'm hoping the writer has a plan for that. The best parts of this issue were certainly the magic bits; the rat like familiars, compulsions, and the final binding/working that effects our awkward protagonist. The brevity of the issue actually enhanced the experience, creating the mood of a situation spiraling out of control. I can't wait to see just how far the spiral goes.
My rating 5 /5

Your ten favourite videos of 2013
The world's smashiest film trailer and a rallying Enzo: it's this year's most-watched vids on the site
Posted: 24 Dec 2013
3. Sheesh, a bit of a hot potato this one. Keen F1 fans will know that the current 2.4-litre V8 engine will be axed in favour of a turbocharged 1.6-litre V6 engine for 2014. But what we all want to know is: how will they sound?
Mercedes was the first to draw blood, releasing a short audio teaser of Hamilton and Rosberg's 2014 engine. And boy, judging by the tidal wave of comments, you certainly had a lot to say about it.

A BACTERIAL cocktail could soon offer a simple alternative to gastric bypass surgery.
An effective treatment for obesity, a gastric bypass limits a person's eating by reducing the size of the stomach. However, it carries a high mortality risk, especially in severely obese people.
Lee Kaplan at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston and colleagues may have discovered a better option. The team took microbes from the guts of mice that had had a gastric bypass and fed them to healthy mice. These mice lost five per cent of their body weight in two weeks, compared with mice on the same diet who were not fed the bacteria (Science Translational Medicine, doi.org/kzb).
The work is a big step towards a "knifeless bypass", says Carel le Roux at University College Dublin in Ireland, who was not involved in the study. He says that although a gastric bypass cuts calorie intake, it also leads to subtle changes in gut bacteria, hormones, bile acids and nerve connections. "It changes how the gut talks to the brain," he says.
How the bacterial cocktail leads to weight loss in mice is still not clear. One idea is that the gut flora that develop after a bypass may reduce the ability of the intestines to absorb nutrients, or alter signals regulating metabolism.
Swapping gut bacteria isn't unprecedented as a treatment: it has been used to cure infection and reduce symptoms of multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic fatigue syndrome and even Parkinson's disease.

The City of Knoxville wants more people to live downtown - while preserving our beautiful historic buildings. So we've created the CityLife Incentives program, which provides financial incentives for developers and owners to create residential units in downtown historical districts.
What's more, the city is committed to helping developers and owners ensure their projects qualify for the CityLife Incentives program, and to making the process as easy as possible.
* Tax abatement through a Payment In Lieu Of Taxes (PILOT) program
Residential development projects meeting the criteria will be eligible for a "tax-freeze" for a period between five and ten years, based on need and the projects cash flow. This financial incentive requires a "title transfer" and is administered through Knoxville's Industrial Development Board (IDB).
* Low-interest loans through a revolving fund
A low-interest construction loan, based on the amount of historic tax credits expected (up to 20% of the total rehabilitation cost), is available to qualified developers. This financial incentive will defray some of the costs associated with the preservation of older buildings and the conversion of such buildings to quality residential units. First Tennessee Bank, in collaboration with several other local banks, will facilitate the loans.
* Parking assistance
The city will offer a residential parking program through the Central Business Improvement District (CBID). Through this permit program, downtown residents will have special access to on-street parking on dedicated downtown streets. In addition, the City currently offers a "residential rate" at city-owned parking garages. Applications and program rules are available
* Minimum charges for plans review and permitting
Residential projects within downtown historic districts will be charged the minimum fee for plans review (building, fire, gas and mechanical, and plumbing) and inspections.
Review criteria:
* Creditworthiness of the owner/developer
* Viability of the project
* Track record/experience of the developer
* Need for assistance
* Impact on downtown
* Preservation significance of the development
*Projects must yield 10 or more residential units
*Properties must be listed on the National Register of Historic Places
*Projects must be located downtown

[spoiler Purpose of This Glossary]The purpose of this thread is simple: compile and provide definitions for a list of terms, acronyms, abbreviations, and forum-speak that are not found in rulebooks and that would be useful for new (and old) members of the 4e Character Optimization community to know. The goal is to build up this thread and then link it on the Complete Collection of Character Build Links.[/spoiler]
[spoiler This is NOT the D&D Forum Glossary]Please note that the "4e General Discussion" forum has a sticky thread titled "Unofficial Dungeons and Dragons Forum Glossary" that is an incredibly detailed resource. This thread differs in scope and focus to more accurately reference terms that concern the Character Optimization community specifically. Sure, there is overlap between the more exhaustive resource and this thread, but we have terms below that they don't and they have gobs and gobs of terms that we don't need to define here. In short, this thread is more of an "Idiot's Guide" in terms of conciseness and applicability to the 4e Character Optimization community.[/spoiler]
[spoiler How to Use This Glossary]If you are unfamiliar with these terms, please find their definitions below and then read posts for a while to see how people use them. Remember: it is generally ineffective to use a lot of geek-babble just to use it, and it is always okay to use the full definitions listed below in place of the terms. Please note that some CharOp handbooks (like Nausicaa's awesome handbook for the Wizard class) may use terminology that is more specific to those handbooks. Finally, when using any of the terms below, the three most important components are context, context, context. [spoiler Consider this "parlor" metaphor by the philosopher Kenneth Burke]Imagine that you enter a parlor. You come late. When you arrive, others have long preceded you, and they are engaged in a heated discussion, a discussion too heated for them to pause and tell you exactly what it is about. In fact, the discussion had already begun long before any of them got there, so that no one present is qualified to retrace for you all the steps that had gone before. You listen for a while, until you decide that you have caught the tenor of the argument; then you put in your oar. Someone answers; you answer him; another comes to your defense; another aligns himself against you, to either the embarrassment or gratification of your opponent, depending upon the quality of your ally's assistance. However, the discussion is interminable. The hour grows late, you must depart. And you do depart, with the discussion still vigorously in progress. (The Philosophy of Literary Form, p. 110-111)[/spoiler][/spoiler]
How This Glossary Gets Assembled: Please post any definitions you think would helpful for members of the Character Optimization community to know. Also, please speak up if you have an alternate definition. I will update and organize the first post (or posts) of this thread as often as I can to keep the list up-to-date. As you may notice, some of the definitions below are directly lifted from different posts (in this and other threads). Blatant plagiarism is the sincerest form of flattery.

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is busy writing his final will and testament, in the political context of course. His publishers, however, have leaked some portions in advance. Excerpts:
Friends, remains and countrymen,
Lend me your ears. My years of public service are coming to an end, but it seems like yesterday when I received a gentle nudge on my back from an unseen hand, pushing me to assume the position of prime minister. Some say it was the elusive foreign hand, but I could not tell since my gaze was unwavering, and my face unsmiling as I waved to the crowds in my signature fashion — hands at waist level in case I was accused of exceeding my brief, or briefs. My tenure has been anything but brief, 10 years at Race Course Road; but from a gallop, I have been charged with slowing to a crawl, and crawling when I only needed to bend. Et tu Baru!
His publishers, Hatchette Job, have gone by the belief that the good that men do is oft interred in the interest of book sales. People say that one should choose wisely in selecting a wife and friends. I'd like to add media advisers. It was an accidental choice, and that nudge in the back from unseen sources could also have been a stab in the back from an unseemly hand. I have always believed that one should be like Caesar's wife, so what if she was of Italian origin? I hope when history is written, not the one that is mostly fiction, it will be kinder to me than the media and former media advisers and coal secretaries have been. I consider my job well done and I have her permission to say so. Like Brutus, I am an honourable man, even though he was of Italian extraction as well.
People have accused me of being more loyal than the King. My sole concern is the Congress family. And since it's a family concern, the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, which that man from Gujarat is sending my way, does not bother me. In fact, as you can tell from my expression, my countrymen, nothing bothers me, not even my ministers — who didn't bother to brief me.
That man from Gujarat keeps harping on about two power centres and that ambition should be made of sterner stuff. Let me assure him that there is no dual role. Nor a reversal of roles. In Vajpayee's time, the principal secretary functioned as if he were the PM; while in my case it is being said that the PM functioned like a principal secretary. I did not Pulok Chaterjee out of thin air, to hand over files for approval. Two heads are better than one and I never felt as if I was in a minority, although I am in a sense. My contribution is not limited to the nuclear …continued »

The School for Husbands By Moliere, translated by Richard Wilbur Two brothers, Sganarelle and Ariste, have been named guardians of a deceased friend's two daughters, to raise and even marry if they see fit. Ariste has raised Leonor with great freedom, allowing her to go to parties, indulging her whims and leaving her free to marry whomever she chooses. But Sganarelle has raised Isabelle quite differently, keeping her a virtual prisoner and intending to marry her, no matter what she desires. Ariste has tried to convince his younger brother that this will only inspire Isabelle to seek escape from him.

Johannesburg — With the votes in and counting underway, religious leader Ahmed Abdallah Sambi has been tipped to become the next president of the Union of Comoros.
"The election has been a walkover for Sambi - he has taken between 70 and 75 percent of the votes on all three islands," a local diplomat commented.
Comorans across the three-island Indian Ocean archipelago went to the polls on Sunday for the last round in a presidential race aimed at ending a history of corruption, coups and inter-island strife since independence from France in 1975.
Sambi, known as 'The Ayatollah' among his supporters, stands to defeat his two rivals: retired French air force officer Mohamed Djaanfari, and long-time politician Ibrahim Halidi, whose candidacy was backed by outgoing Union President Azali Assoumani.
"We have seen results from between 80 and 90 percent of the polling stations - 70 percent of the votes have gone to Sambi," Idi Nadhoin, vice-president of Sambi's Islamic National Front for Justice party, told IRIN.
Campaigning by the three candidates was dominated by concerns over corruption, unemployment and poverty.
Sambi pledged real reform, an end to years of government mismanagement and squandering of public funds, and the creation of new jobs and housing for the poor.
"Sambi is expressing the will of the people. We are looking to start a 'state of law', to install equal justice for everyone, rich or poor. But we have no cash," Nadhoin said.
"One priority is to try to get back the money [allegedly lost because of government graft]. You can not play with public money, so we will try to find it - getting back 100 percent is difficult but if we manage 10 to 20 percent we can get started," he remarked.
Funding will be crucial: Sambi stands to inherit a civil service disgruntled by months of unpaid salaries. According to Nadhoin, "Teachers are on strike; we need to build good hospitals and repair roads, so there is an urgent need to get started."
Polling stations on Moheli, Grande Comore and Anjouan opened at 07:00 and closed at 18:00 on Sunday, "giving the estimated 310,000 registered voters ample opportunity cast their vote" at a total of 624 sites, a spokesperson for the African Union Mission for Support to the Elections in the Comoros (AMISEC) told IRIN.
Although AMISEC said voting generally went smoothly, the 462-strong mission - including military and police personnel - reportedly arrested a number of people for fraud, including a prominent member of the National Electoral Commission (CNEC).
"He [the CNEC official] was taking advantage of his position, was arrested and has been handed over to the Comoran authorities," Francisco Madeira, AU special envoy to the Comoros and AMISEC chief told IRIN.
The three islands each have a turn to hold the national presidency, which rotates every four years. If the Comoran Constitutional Court verifies the preliminary results on Wednesday, Assoumani is expected to pass the torch to Sambi at the official inauguration on 26 May, handing the union presidency from Grande Comore to Anjouan.
Sambi topped the polls during primaries held in April, when the residents of Anjouan narrowed down their presidential hopefuls from 13 to three. Comoran security forces were confined to their barracks during the election phases.

A year and a half ago, I was dating a woman before coming out to myself. I regret hurting her in the way I did, and if I could have been more honest with myself and with her, it would have been better for both of us. Sadly, I was too afraid to talk to her about it and just broke up with her without really being honest.
I think it is important to realize that coming out to yourself is scary and hard to admit. I really wanted to be in a relationship with a woman and when I found myself in one wanted it to work. I was not sleeping around on her when we were together, and it is possible for gay guys to be with a woman without kissing men, inviting people to threesomes, acting homophobic, or being vain or girly.
Being in a relationship with a women was exhausting and stressful for me. But, because I didn't want to admit to myself that I was gay, I tried hard to make it work. While I did actively participate in make-outs and romantic things, sex was hard and not enjoyable for me, but again, I participated because I wanted to prove something to myself. I think a good sign that the man you may be with might be gay is if he seems to be trying harder than he is enjoying the relationship.
Look out for close private relationships with other men. I know that these relationships were always the most important ones to me. If there are jokes about your man and his men being a couple, or if you find yourself jealous of his best friend, that might be a good clue.
If you are suspecting that he is gay, it is possibly for a good reason. I am wondering why are you asking these questions? And if you are asking these questions, what does that mean about what you are getting out of the relationship. Regardless of whether or not he is gay, you need to be getting what you need out of this relationship. Coming out taught me that.
As for what you should do, I think it is important to realize that no one can make anyone come out. Figuring out you are gay is very personal, the thought of being gay is treating for someone who has been living his or her life as a strait person. What you can do is be supportive and figure out what you need to do for yourself.
I am assuming that things have worked out one way or another in the past 3 months. But I have been in a long term relationship with a woman for that long and have slept with guys who have too. If you are still questioning his sexuality, or to anyone else who is in a similar situation, treat this guy with patience and empathy (this can be a slow and hard process) and make sure that you are getting what you need for yourself.
What Guys Said 5
Well, you have to understand the difference between european and gay.
But when dealing with North American men, the closeted gays tend to be passive daters with women and/or insult gays constantly.
Straight men may be uncomfortable with any gay talk but with a straight guy he shouldn't ever take it too seriously.
Also, straight guys will tend to twist a gay joke around and act gay for jokes, closeted gay men will become overtly defensive.
If you want a quick trick though, ask any man what his favorite colour pants are.
Then ask him if he hates his shirt.
Then ask him if he knows your boyfriend.
A straight guy will have no response for AT LEAST one of the above questions.
A gay man will probably answer all, and without much thought.
What Girls Said 1
(1) He tries to tell you that he's gay. You need to listen closely.
(2) He talks about how much he loves one of his male friends.
(3) He cares a lot about his appearance. Not necessarily metro, but he's very vain.
(4) He never makes a move on you.
(5) He watches his weight and talks to you about it, but he's not overweight.
(6) He likes girlie things: gossip, shopping, weight loss, is very verbal, etc.
(7) He might be misogynistic. Maybe he has a female friend or two, but he's not respectful about women. He might make sexist remarks in front of you.
*Not all gay guys are like this, but if he has a lot of these traits, esp 1 & 2, then yea.
"He tries to tell you that he's gay. You need to listen closely." LOLZ!
I buy 1 & 2, maybe 4. The rest, I hope, are for laughs.
this is good.!
i defo agree with number 6
I have found that
Straight boys don't usually bitch excessively / judge people...
Gay boys do

The Global Volcanism Program has no activity reports for El Negrillar.
The Global Volcanism Program has no Weekly Reports available for El Negrillar.
The Global Volcanism Program has no Bulletin Reports available for El Negrillar.
El Negrillar is a group of cinder cones and compound andesitic lava flows in what was interpreted to be a Holocene volcanic field west of the Cordón de Púlar (Moreno 1985, pers. comm.; de Silva and Francis, 1991). Gardeweg (1993, pers. comm.), however, did not consider El Negrillar to be of Holocene age. This volcanic field, also known as Negros de Aras, lies about 20 km north of Socompa volcano. The major Holocene debris avalanche from Socompa overlies some youthful-looking lava flows at the western margin of El Negrillar lava-flow complex.
The Global Volcanism Program is not aware of any Holocene eruptions from El Negrillar. If this volcano has had large eruptions (VEI >= 4) prior to 10,000 years ago, information might be found on the El Negrillar page in the LaMEVE (Large Magnitude Explosive Volcanic Eruptions) database, a part of the Volcano Global Risk Identification and Analysis Project (VOGRIPA).
This compilation of synonyms and subsidiary features may not be comprehensive. Features are organized into four major categories: Cones, Craters, Domes, and Thermal Features. Synonyms of features appear indented below the primary name. In some cases additional feature type, elevation, or location details are provided.
|Negros de Aras
|The dark-colored lava flows and cinder cones at the center of this NASA Landsat image (with north to the top) is El Negrillar. This group of cinder cones and compound andesitic lava flows of Quaternary age, also known as Negros de Aras, lies about 20 km north of Socompa volcano. The lighter-colored area on the left side of the image abutting El Negrillar flows on the west is part of the major Holocene debris avalanche from Socompa volcano.

Limbo is easily one of the best games of this console generation, but a lot of people felt a little sour when they discovered they payed upwards of 15 bucks for a 3 hour game. I can understand the feeling and apparently so can Playdead; they've released a physical (DRM-free!) disc, special edition of Limbo for both PC and Mac. The special edition comes with both the PC and Mac versions, a stand-alone soundtrack, art cards, and 3D glasses.
It's available today at Playdead's Amazon page for $24.99. If you haven't played LIMBO, I heavily recommend it. Ignore the "hipster garbage" baggage it's acclimated from internet trolls: LIMBO is the real deal, a puzzle-platformer with a lot to say and tons of crushing atmosphere.

Q. I plan to plant my first vegetable garden this spring and just received some vegetable seed catalogs. What does it mean that some seeds are "treated"? Treated with what?
A. Seed companies treat some seeds with hot water to kill disease organisms on or inside the seeds. This is very helpful in preventing diseases like black rot of cabbage, anthracnose of peppers, and bacterial speck and spot of tomatoes.

Microwave/millimeter-wave techniques such as interferometry, reflectometry, scattering, and radiometry have been powerful tools for diagnosing magnetically confined high-temperature plasmas. Important plasma parameters were measured to clarify the physics issues such as stability, wave phenomena, and fluctuation-induced transport. Recent advances in microwave and millimeter-wave technology together with computer technology have enabled the development of new generation of diagnostics for visualization of 2D and 3D structures of plasmas. Microwave/Millimeter-wave imaging is expected to be one of the most promising diagnostic methods for this purpose. We report here on the recent progress in microwave diagnostics and the results obtained in magnetically confined plasmas.

In a standards-based system, both content and achievement standards play a critical part in the educational system. Achievement standards provide targets for instruction and assessment and help students to know what is expected of them so that they can adjust their learning strategies to meet expectations. However, the most consistent finding from the research literature on standard setting is that different methods lead to different results. It is nonetheless incumbent on states to ensure that the methods they use to set standards are defensible. Setting achievement standards for a system of assessment is even more challenging than for a single assessment, and states will need help in this regard. The committee calls on the educational measurement community to conduct research on standard-setting methods that can be used in conjunction with assessment systems. We also urge the U.S. Department of Education to require that states evaluate the methods they currently use.
Recommendation 8: Research on the development of standard-setting strategies that could be used to establish achievement levels when results from multiple assessments are involved should be conducted. Federal funding agencies and others should support this important research.
Recommendation 9: The U.S. Department of Education should require that states have an independent external body evaluate the process they use to develop and set achievement levels. This evaluation should be conducted as early in the development process as possible.
The committee urges states to use NCLB as an opportunity to make science both an educational priority and a responsibility shared by all. At the same time, we urge the federal government and the other bodies mentioned above to take their responsibilities seriously and to join states in considering this an opportunity to bring about substantial improvements in science assessment and student learning.
Recommendation 10: Federal agencies and others should support, with funding and expertise, the development and pilot testing of model assessment systems in order to assist states in their efforts to create such systems.
