Sunny Piper, Girl Reporter
Stuff to fill up this space here
"That's the problem with them fables, they're putting animals together that wouldn't meet. I don't know where a scorpion is knockin' around with a frog."
"Yeah, I know but I remember one on our estate and she was a bit - what's the word that you can use, because I don't want to offend anyone? She was sort of mental homeless. Is that a term?"
"You can be an ugly baby and everyone goes "awww innit nice?" There was some women in a cafe the other week that I was sat in, and she came up and she sat down with her mate and she was talkin' loudly goin' on about "oh the baby's lovely." They said it's got, er, lovely big eyes, er, really big hands and feet. Now that doesn't sound like a nice baby to me. I felt like sayin' it sounds like a frog. But I thought I dont know her, there's only so much you can say to a stranger. I dont know what kept me from sayin' it."
"You know how they say people have six senses? There's loads more than that. [The ability to feel someone looking at you], that's been around since man and dinosaur were knockin' about."
"Say if I was in charge and someone said that buildin' needs knockin' down, it's dangerous, if we didn't have a calendar we'd go 'erm lets do it now then.' Whereas cos we've got a calendar it's easy to say...'next Wednesday'."
"Just been into the zoo, 'avin a look round an that. Went into the, er, into the aquarium. Mental, the amount of fish that are knockin' about."
"At what point is a wasp ever going to have a chat with a spider?"
"People moan about drugs being tested on animals. I sort of think it depends innit. If the drug's aspirin and the monkey's got a headache, is it tight?"
"They've found this spider, in the jungle. Three foot long, it eats chicken. Bit weird, innit. People moan saying that you shouldn't lock animals up and all the rest of it, but to be honest I wish it was locked up. The idea that it's roaming in a jungle... get it locked up."
"I was walking past a sex shop an' that. One, it was open early which I never understood, it was about eight o'clock in the morning. Who needs butt plugs then?"
"We've invented most of the stuff that we need and now we're just messing about."
"I think it's clever how Rome have kept a load of old stuff. There's no overheads, yet people are going over there to see it."
"Were those presents the three kings brought Jesus for Christmas or his birthday?"
"So anyway, this mental homeless woman on the estate, what she used to do, right, she acted quite normal and she used to always push a pram around with her, right. And she was dead happy; every day she was walking up and down the road. Anyway one day she walked past me, right, and I turned around and looked in the pram - and there's a bucket with a face on it!"
"You know nicknames are big things on estates. A lot of me dad's mates had them. What their nicknames did was tell you about them. The Elephant Man is a good name because you know what you're gonna get. If someone said, 'Elephant Man's popping round in a bit', it wouldn't be a shock when he walked in. So it worked in that sort of thing."
"I'm just saying there seems to have been a lot of doubling up. If I was Noah I would have gone, 'Hang on a minute, I've just seen something that looks a bit like this.' Let it drown and have a clear out. But he didn't - he was messing about saving everything."
STEVE: Have you ever read Franz Kafka's
, in which a man wakes up and he's turned into a giant beetle and that's the whole story? I think it might be of interest to you.
KARL: So what happened to him with the beetle?
STEVE: Well, I don't want to ruin it for you in case you read it.
KARL: No, I won't be reading it, don't worry.
RICKY: He joined a pop group with three other people, he was brilliant.
STEVE: No, it's a really wonderful book. It's almost heart-breaking because, of course, as Ricky says, he finds it very hard then to relate to other people even though he still has the consciousness of a human. His parents, the rest of his family, they don't know how to deal with him because he's a giant beetle. He becomes a freak. He becomes an outsider.
KARL: But hang on though - is he a
RICKY: Yes.
KARL: Well, yeah, that's not gonna go down well, is it? Of course people aren't gonna like you. But if it's a normal sized one then you just get in with the other beetles, don't you?
Dang internet. They don't care whose lives they ruin.

Feminist Rage
When you read a news story about an old person or a disabled person who has been robbed or beaten or murdered or otherwise attacked in some way, the outrage is always,
unqualified. No one ever questions where they were or what they were doing or who they were with or what they were wearing.
When you read a news story about a young, able-bodied woman who has been attacked, we as a society need to do a questionnaire before we can decide whether or not we sympathise.
Where was she?
Why was she there?
What time was it?
What was she wearing?
Where was she going?
Where had she been?
Had she been drinking?
Who was she with?
Why was she with them?
Was she flirting with someone?
Did she kiss someone?
Did she - god forbid - have sex with someone?
And then we make our judgements and proclamations of where she went wrong. It comes under many guises - 'commonsense', 'just how it is', 'life in the real world', 'sensible advice', etc. etc. What it comes down to is deciding whether or not a woman is deserving of sympathy when something horrible happens to her. And there are many times we decide that she isn't.
It's hard to explain the entrenched fear of attack and threat that women go through life with. I can't say I've done any extensive studies, but I would venture to guess that men do not feel the same as a matter of course (perhaps in particular situations). I've asked a few men before if they have a fear of attack when they're just going about their business and they have stared blankly at me. Women go through their day hyper-aware of the potential threats around them. A man in prison would have a very genuine fear that he could be raped at any time. A man walking down the street likely doesn't. Women, however, carry that fear constantly. And what we do not need is men telling us that we 'should' be doing X.
Don't go out at night.
Don't go down dark streets.
Don't wear revealing clothing.
Don't be alone anywhere.
Just dont.
I wanted this to be a nice, clear, linear post, but I have many stories jumbled in my head, so I'm just going to list them and I apologise if together they don't make a whole lot of sense. I am really just trying to illustrate the anger I feel generally about this issue.
My 14 year old daughter and her friends are regularly subjected to wolf whistles, cat calls, and cries of "Show us yer tits!" while walking to school. So regularly that they just shrug it off now as a normal part of being a girl, even though she has told me many times that it scares her when it happens.
Once I was walking home from work at about 4:30 in the afternoon and headed down a laneway towards my house. A very obviously drunk man was heading towards me from the other end of the lane. He must have seen me stiffen, as he called out, "It's okay love, I'm just walking." I felt bad for automatically assuming that he might harm me, but on the other hand, as women know, there is a very real danger that he could have. He was bigger than me and stronger than me.
When I was young I had a boyfriend who was a really big guy - well over 6 feet and built like a brick shit-house. He told me once that he had been walking home late at night and there was a girl walking in front of him who seemed to be freaking out that he was behind her. She kept looking behind at him, and walking unnaturally fast. He felt bad so he crossed the road to let her know that he wasn't following her. I have never forgotten this story - it always depressed me that anyone could possibly think he would harm them, as he was one of the most laid back, easygoing people I've ever met. On the other hand, if I didn't know him and he was walking behind me in the middle of the night, I'd have been shitting myself too. This is our lives. This is what we as women deal with. If you're a man reading this, maybe one small thing you could do from now on is cross the road. You might know you're harmless - that girl walking in front of you doesn't. And she is afraid of you.
Most of the women I know have been flashed at one time or another. Most of the women I know have had to physically fight off unwanted advances of one degree or another. Both of these acts constitute a type of assault, but I've never heard of anyone bothering to report it because it is so prevalent that it's almost like a terrible rite of passage in the journey to becoming a woman. We are so accustomed to this behaviour that it would never occur to us to try to do anything practical to stop it.
Years ago I read a survey in
Marie Claire
of high school boys and their attitudes to women. One third of those surveyed said they thought it was acceptable to 'forcibly coerce' a girl into sex 'in some circumstances'.
Two nights ago I was walking home from work at about 6pm, it was starting to get dark so I decided to go the long way around the main streets near my home rather than take the short cut through the lane way behind my house. Two busloads full of screaming, drunken young men came around the corner - they were all hanging out the window yelling abuse at everyone (including me). Buck's night? Sports team pub crawl? Who know? Who cares? The buses passed me and then pulled up about 20 feet in front. I would have to walk right past them to get to my house. I stopped, thought for a second and then doubled back around the block and went up the lane way. At dusk on a Friday evening, walking down a deserted lane seemed a less threatening option than walking down my own fucking street.
Women are conditioned to be 'nice' and 'polite' (witness the outcry against Catherine Deveny a few weeks ago when she went up against Peter Jenkins on
- she wasn't 'nice' and we were horrified. We were not so horrified that the person she wasn't 'nice' to was talking blatant hate for a minority group, because he did it 'nicely', with a quiet, calm manner). We are an attacker's dream, because although we may feel threatened in some instances, unless there's a clear sign that we are about to be attacked in some way, we generally won't cause a scene. We put up with a lot. We don't want to make people feel bad (as an aside, this is how 'nice guys' get put up with too - women don't want to hurt their feelings by telling them they're being creepy).
There are so many more things I could say but I'm tired of it all. I am really, really angry about all that women are still putting up with in 2012, and in fact I feel like it's getting worse. When 14 year olds in school uniforms just expect to be abused on the street as part of their daily life, what hope do we have for their future interactions?
And men, I know most of you are just trying to be practical and helpful, but you come across as patronising when you lecture us about how we should behave. The reality is that we do take care, and bad things still happen. And until (some) men stop attacking women because they're out and about in front of them, nothing will change. Do you really want to let women know you care about it too? Be involved. Go and march in Reclaim the Night. Retweet, reblog, repost things women write about their experiences. Stand united. Do not hijack conversations about issues that largely affect women and try to make them about you and your gender. Understand that women talking about issues that largely affect women are not a personal attack on you or your gender. And above all, give support, not advice.

Behold the Problems of the Battler!
With apparently no tongue in cheek,
this woman
is complaining to the media about how she will be $700 a year worse off with a Carbon Tax.
She is a stay at home mother, with a husband who earns "more than $150,000 a year", or as she says, "slightly more". Slightly more than what? The average wage? The average wage in Australia is about $67,000 a year. So I'd say he earns slightly more than "slightly more". Maybe it's "slightly more" than the median wage? That's about $55,000. So this woman's husband earns almost 3 times that amount - not exactly "slightly more".
And what will the carbon tax cost them? About $13.50 a week. Tragic.
But you know what? It's a rough life out there for people like this poor woman, and we should all hang our heads in shame that we have allowed these people to fall through the cracks of society. I'd like to take up a canned food drive for her or something. Come on, who's with me?

When you want to get a vote, just scream CHILD MOLESTER AAAAAGGHH!
Government plans sex offenders register.
Why this is a stupid idea: because there is nothing on earth that brings out the crazy in people like the idea of a child molester somewhere in their midst.
1. Regardless of the rejection of the idea by the Police Minister of WA, publicising the whereabouts of registered sex offenders
resulted in vigilantism over and over again. Now, on the one hand, I can't summon up an awful lot of sympathy for some paedo getting rocks thrown at his house or having someone punch him in the street or whatever, but it's the principle. It's not okay to take the law into your own hands, and this kind of 'register' just encourages idiots to do exactly that.
2. It's easy to get complacent. You might be spending all your energy making sure your children don't go within 20 feet of that convicted child molester's house when the guy who lives next door to you has been feeling up his nieces and nephews for years and has never been caught. And you think it's cute when he chats to your kid about the flowers in his garden...
3. Regardless of how much we might dislike it, these people have served their time and should be left alone. The fact that they are registered means they are monitored. If you think they should have longer sentences or not be let out at all once they have been caught the first time (and in the case of paedophiles who have been shown to be almost 100% recidivists, I'm inclined to support this idea), lobby your local member of parliament to change the sentencing legislation.
4. The line of what is and isn't a 'sex offender' is murky. Remember a few years ago that
23 year old music teacher who was a registered sex offender because he had a relationship with a 17 year old
? Who wasn't his student? Who refused to press charges? Who later became engaged to him? He made a bad judgement, but he's not a sex offender like, say,
Dennis Ferguson
is a sex offender. He's not even a sex offender like
Wayne Carey
is a sex offender. There are degrees of 'offending' but your average idiot vigilante or hysterical mother doesn't recognise that - all they see is:
And if you don't think people are that stupid,
think again

Occupy this, bitches!
It's pretty common knowledge that I'm a bit of a lefty socialist, so as you can imagine, I've been following the
movement with great interest. I'm not anti-capitalist as such, but I'm very much against rampant, unchecked capitalism, and it warms my heart to see that large groups of people are finally beginning to agree that this is a problem. It's a shame it took until hundreds of thousands of people in the
richest country in the world
started losing their homes and wondering where their next meals would come from to get some action going, but at least it's going. Whether this is the beginning of a revolution or whether it will peter out eventually with the 1% firmly retaining control of pretty much everything remains to be seen. I'd like to believe that what we are witnessing will lead to a change, even if it's a long time coming. I think it has to - corporations control the world because the people allow that to happen. More and more people have stopped being complacent and are starting to speak up. I think that's brilliant, and I hope fervently that it's not too late.
Having said that, when I first heard about Occupy Melbourne/Sydney, I was actually a bit annoyed. I considered it a bit of a slap in the face to try to align ourselves with a country full of people who are experiencing real hardship and have few - if any - safety nets to protect them. As pointed out in
this post
We Are The 99%
, Australia has free health care, interest-free tertiary education loans and one of the world's best welfare systems. Okay, it's not perfect - I'm sure everyone can tell a horror story about that one time their granny was left on a trolley in a hallway for four hours because there wasn't a hospital bed available, or Centrelink screwed up your payment and you got too much and had to pay it back or whatever. But the point is, in this country, there is help for those who need it. If you get cancer, you will be treated. If you lose your job, you will get welfare. We are certainly not the 99%.
In this country, the mining industry is powerful enough to oust a Prime Minister to avoid contributing their fair share of tax.
In this country, banking, electricity, gas, water and the phone system are all privatised.
In this country, 70% of the print media is owned by one company (who also own or have shares in a large percentage of TV media), which actively campaigns for or against governments to serve their own corporate interests.
In this country, political discourse has been reduced to abusing one another like 10 year olds in a schoolyard, thanks largely again to the privately-owned media.
In this country, mortgages are more and more outside the realm of possibility for a single, average income person, and house prices are still going up.
In this country, there is a chronic shortage of housing for low income earners, and shrinking public housing.
In this country, there is an outcry when a family earning $150,000 or more are told they can pay their own child care fees rather than claiming half of it back from the government.
In this country the middle classes screamed bloody murder when told there would be a carbon tax that would end up costing the upper tiers about the price of two coffees a week. And they're still screaming.
And the icing on the cake: the shareholders of the country's major airline voted to give the CEO a 70% payrise, at the same time as he decided to put a stop to the staff's collective bargaining negotiations (5% payrise, less outsourcing of their work and other such 'unreasonable' demands) by shutting down the entire business and attempting to lock everyone out.
No, we are not the 99%. But the poor are getting poorer while the middle-class and wealthy bitch about how much tax they have to pay to contribute to the society we live in and scream the place down at the mere whiff of losing some of their many handouts.
We live in a society that begrudges taking in a couple of thousand asylum seekers a year because they cling to the myth that coming here by boat is jumping some non-existent queue.
We live in a society where a group of middle-aged, middle-class people can scream abuse at the Prime Minister in Parliament because of a tax that would cost most of them pretty much nothing with no repercussions, but a hundred or so protesters sitting around in an area hardly anyone uses protesting rampant corporate greed warrants the use of several hundred riot police moving them out by any means necessary.
We live in a society that wants free education, free health care, welfare for those who "deserve" it (my relative who lost his job and is hard done by but not that bludger up the street), but we also want - and get - tax cut after tax cut after tax cut. And still we bitch because it's not enough. And our granny is in the hallway of the hospital on a trolley. And my kid can't get a special needs teacher. And that's the government's fault because they're not paying for these things with their magic pot of money that comes from somewhere but it better not be from us.
Do we wait until we reach the point that the USA has gotten to, or do we act now?
So, to those occupying Melbourne, Sydney and wherever else - you have my apologies. I was wrong to be annoyed.
Bring on the fucking revolution.

Ted McGinley doesn't like this shit.
Get-Up Factsheet on Refugees
Dear Idiots Who Talk About "queues", "illegal boats" and "proper channels", and also Julia Gillard, since you're pandering to these idiots,
This is why there cannot be a "debate" on this topic, because one side is "debating" with completely incorrect information:
1. They're coming here in droves!
Julia Gillard herself admitted that
what Julian Burnside said about it taking 20 years to fill the MCG with these people
was true.
2. But they're jumping the queue!
There is no queue for asylum seekers. Anyone can turn up and seek asylum, from any country at any time. Perfectly legal.
3. They're not using "proper channels/legal methods"!
There are no "proper channels". Once again, anyone, anywhere, at any time, from any country can legally turn up in this country by any method and seek asylum. IT IS PERFECTLY LEGAL.
4. They are not genuine!
85-90% of boat people are eventually found to be genuine refugees - compared to about 45% of people who arrive by plane.
5. How can they be refugees if they have the money to pay to come here on a boat?
There is no law that says a refugee or asylum seeker has to be poor. In fact, many of them come from wealthy families who are in danger from corrupt governments seizing their wealth and property (ie: Zimbabwe).
6. We should be looking after our own people first - especially pensioners!
We do. We look after both. Pensioners just got a $30 a week pay rise. They have pension cards, pensioner concessions, most of them either own their own home outright or are in government housing. The myth of the starving pensioner eating cat food is exactly that.

Day 21 - Favorite ship
I'm not a shipper - in fact, I only found out what that meant fairly recently. I don't much like romantic entanglements in my stories, it gets on my nerves. I don't want to see Betty and Daniel together, or Joan and Don, or Leonard and Penny, or Jeff and Britta, OR JEFF AND ANNIE, or Sheldon and anyone.
However, there is one romance I hold above all others - in TV and in life. It chokes me up just to think about it, damn it. It is proof of the genius of Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant that they could create this utterly beautiful, perfect, completely uncheesy love story.

Day 07 - Least favorite episode of your favorite TV show
Oh no, I broke the meme! I haven't seen
Twin Peaks
for a long time - I can't honestly remember my least favourite episode. So instead I'm going to go right off track and talk about something completely random, but still TV-related.
was first shown on TV, I watched it religiously. It was a groundbreaking sitcom for its time - a realistic, working-class family where everyone looked like ordinary people. And it was funny. It all started to go to seed when Roseanne herself became really, really big (in fame, not size - she was actually shrinking by then) and was let loose too much to do her own thing. Fantasies about Fabio, various soap operas,
Gilligan's Island
... it was just embarrassing. And of course Sarah Chalke (known in this household as "Crap Becky") wasn't a patch on the gloriously dramatically bitchy character played by Lecy Gorenson. I tuned out for most of the last two seasons - it was the mid-90s and I actually had a life then. I remember watching the final episode though, and thinking it was pretty much the stupidest thing I'd ever seen on television.
Recently I've been watching the re-runs on Foxtel, and the other day was the final episode. I have to say, I've been rethinking my original opinion. Okay, I'm not happy about the whole "Mark was really with Darlene and David was really with Becky" thing, but on the whole, when you've watched everything leading up to it, the finale does kind of work.
Jacquie, take note. I am coming as close as I ever will to admitting that I was wrong.
We will resume normal meme-programming tomorrow.

These gas pockets accumulated by migration along steeply inclined structural discontinuities, most likely faults and fracture zones within the underlying shallow bedrock units. With the seismic technique limited to a depth of 100 m, Vsh data were used to assess the reservoir's seal rocks ability to limit vertical gas migration. The Vsh data indicate that the seal rocks are best classified as heterogeneous siltstones. Spatial analysis highlights an aligned pattern of low Vsh values in both the reservoir rocks and the seal rocks. The low Vsh values lie beneath the faults and fracture zones and the documented surficial gas deposit. Higher n values for the sandstones in the reservoir area as opposed to other areas suggest porosity enhancement associated with deformation. Structural deformation, faults and fracture zones, appears to provide a pathway for vertical gas migration. However, stratigraphic (lateral) heterogeneities associated with the reservoir and seal rocks may provide additional vertical pathways.]]> Eric W. Peterson, Lauren I. Martin, Dave H.

Rail 770: it's all words at election time
Don't ya just love politics? It is especially fun at election time, as a couple of examples I will outline in this column show. Indeed, sometimes the self-interest of the politicians is so naked that it is a wonder they don't appear starkers on TV. Take the announcement that, at last, there is a firm commitment to replace the much hated Pacers. Well, not announcement really but the information...

Rail 769: diversity is weak point in rail industry
I've got a confession to make. In the 500 or so columns I have written for Rail, I have not ever addressed the question of equality and I am rather embarrassed by that failure.

It was noticeable that the organisers had no difficulty persuading the...
Road death toll prompts need for Vision Zero
There have already been 29 deaths on London's roads in the first eight weeks of the year, compared with 10 in the same period last year. This terrible toll highlights the need for a 'Vision Zero' policy on road safety, an idea I have been proposing as part of my mayoral campaign. While there is no overall pattern to this threefold increase, the four cycling deaths were all caused by left turning lorries,...

1997 Hyundai Sonata Q&A
1997 Hyundai Sonata Question: emission system
When I turn the key to start the car it will only click. Then one day it will start. I have changed the fuses, battery and still does same thing. Went to Autozone and had it check Code PO443 came back, Purge/vent solenoid circuit condition. Purge or vent solenoids defective, where do I find these thing. and can they to repaired or replaced. - toopay
Answer 1
The "clicking sound" when you try to start the car is either due to low battery voltage (bad battery, battery draw when car is turned off or charging system issue), a voltage drop (due to bad electrical connections) or most likely a bad starter motor/starter solenoid Purge control solenoid is located in the center rear of the engine compartment on the firewall. Hyundai as a car manufacturer put a lot of free technical information and workshop manuals on line for Hyundai owners. Check out www.hmaservice.com lots of great information. - patrick mannion

VIDEO: OHL goalie pulls himself after giving up eight goals, quits
More NHL: Trades | Scores | Standings | League Leaders | Odds | Power Rankings
Dalen Kuchmey will likely never be as good of a goaltender as the great Patrick Roy but at least the OHL goalie had his own Patrick Roy moment. Not one of the good ones.
In the eventful Game 3 of the Windsor Spitfires' playoff series against the London Knights, which also included London goalie Anthony Stolarz slashing Windsor's Josh Ho-Sang in the back of the head (Stolarz was suspended eight games on Wednesday, which is obviously a massive blow at this time of the season for London) but it was a total blowout. It was so bad that Stolarz's opposing goalie, Kuchmey, pulled himself from the game.
Kuchmey was pressed into duty because his fellow goalie Alex Fotinos was not feeling well at all. Eight goals and 34 minutes later, Kuchmey was still in the game and his coach Bob Boughner didn't have much design on pulling him. So he just left the ice.
Not only did Kuchmey leave the ice, he went straight to the dressing room, changed and left the team. Not surprisingly, he said he's not going to play another game for Windsor.
Spoke to goalie Dalen Kuchmey, who said he will not be returning to the Windsor #Spitfires— Jim Parker (@winstarparker) March 26, 2014
Of course after leaving the ice and quitting on his team, as Boughner put it, they likely wouldn't have him back anyway. Question is if any other team will have him now.
Kuchmey faced 26 shots on the night and stopped only 18 of them, clearly not his or Windsor's night. Fotinos stopped 11 of 13 shots in the final 25:34 but the game was more than out of hand at that point.

Green lacewing life cycle and stages. Tiny oblong eggs, each with a silken stalk, are attached to plants.
Larvae develop through three instars. Loosely woven, spherical, silken cocoons are attached to plants or in crevices,
such as under loose bark. Adults have golden eyes, slender bodies, and are named for their green, lacy, wing veins.
Average development time from egg to adult is about one month.

2 Democratic Senators Propose Alternate Plan For Syria
By editor
Originally published on Tue September 10, 2013 7:08 am
President Obama on Tuesday meets with Democratic senators to press his case for military action against Syria. Two moderate senators are offering an alternative plan. It would delay military action for 45 days, and give Bashar Assad another chance to get rid of his chemical weapons. Steve Inskeep talks to Sen. Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota about the plan.

Of his nine novels, only the bestselling Paddy Clarke ha ha Ha (1993) lacks company.
Is Paddy Clarke ha ha Ha (which won the Mann Booker Prize in 1993) the only one of your novels that stands on its own?
On the other hand, it is annoying—after having predicted everything accurately—to hear "ha ha yah boo!"
also haha, used of laughter since ancient times; cf. Old English ha ha, Greek ha ha, Latin hahae. A different attempt at representation is in py-hy (1580s).

OPP: No Ring, No Bring
by Slacker and Steve
posted Apr 16 2013 12:51AM
Today's OPP comes from Candy. She writes:
Yi Slacker and Steve,
My fiancé is really stressed about every cost associated with our wedding and he wants to cut back in any way that we can. Since we are paying for everything ourselves, I have no problem going cheap where we can. One of the ways he really thinks we can save money is by telling all of our single friends and family that they can't bring a guest to the wedding. I really disagree with him on that idea. It is supposed to be a day that we share with all of the people we are closest to and I don't think a lot of people will come if they can't bring someone with them. The other thing he's not thinking about is the fact that he's a few years older than me so nearly all of his friends are married and most of my girlfriends are still single. I want to spend my day with all of my friends and I want them to have a good time. Any way I can change my fiancé's mind?
Slacker has had two weddings and he thinks they are kind of stupid. He definitely thinks that it is a little unfair that all of the grooms friends are married and hers are not, but he doesn't understand why Candy would want her girlfriend's flavor of the month at her special day. While Steve typically avoids weddings, he likes the idea. He thinks it is a good way to get single people to mingle together at a wedding.
Do you think it's a good idea to not let a single person have a +1 at a wedding? Would you go to a wedding if you were single and couldn't bring a guest?

Lateral Epicondylitis
(Tennis Elbow)
DefinitionLateral epicondylitis is pain at the elbow. The pain occurs over the bone on the outside of the elbow. There are several muscles and tendons that attach on this area of the bone.This condition is often called tennis elbow, but it is not restricted to people who play tennis. It can also occur in people with jobs that require repetitive motions such as roofers and carpenters.
|Lateral Epicondylitis
|Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
CausesLateral epicondylitis is caused by damage to a tendon.Tendons connects muscles to bone. Repetitive or stressful movements of the muscles causes strain and pain at the tendon. The tendons associated with lateral epicondylitis are connected to forearm muscles. These muscles are active when you grip something, such as a tennis racquet. Actions that can cause irritation to the tendons of the elbow include:
- Improper technique for hitting a tennis ball
- Improper size of tennis racquet or tension of racquet strings
- Improper golf swing technique or grip of golf clubs
- Doing certain arm motions too much, such as:
- Tennis strokes
- Golf swings
- Painting
- Raking
- Pitching
- Rowing
- Using a hammer or screwdriver
Risk FactorsFactors that increase your risk of lateral epicondylitis include:
- Playing tennis or golf
- Work that requires repetitive wrist extension and gripping with a closed fist
- Muscle imbalance
- Decreased flexibility
- Advancing age
SymptomsLateral epicondylitis may develop slowly over time. It may not be associated with a sudden injury. Symptoms include:
- Pain and tenderness on the outside of the elbow
- Possibly pain extending down the forearm
- Tightness of forearm muscles
- Stiffness or trouble moving the elbow or wrist
- Lack of full elbow extension
- Shaking hands
- Turning doorknobs
- Picking up objects with your palm down
- Hitting a backhand in tennis
- Swinging a golf club
- Pressing on the outside of the elbow

Saria looks like she's humping the grass before the soup scene.
i think that when link picked up the master sword he 9 years old witch means that link was 16 after 7 years
Good memories
This is one of the many videos i watched when i first met with newgrounds. now years later im watching all my shows again. I liked your ideas of links past but i just have to say one thing (nothing to bad)....why is links mom camping in the middle o the path xD
I've always liked this. It's cute and funny, and well-made. It's not necessarily supposed to explain the canon, guys - I see this as more of an author's viewpoint. The ONLY complaint I have with this is how you pronounced "Ocarina" - it makes me cringe every time. >_<

– July 16, 2014 – Heart disease and
stroke are the leading causes of
death and disability among people with Type 2 diabetes. In fact, at least 65
percent of people with diabetes die from some form of heart disease or stroke,
according to the American Heart Association.
However, a new study by researchers at Wake Forest
Baptist Medical Center suggests that the use of cholesterol-lowering statins may
help prolong the lives of people with diabetic cardiovascular disease.
The study is published in the current online edition of
Diabetes Care.
"Although our study was not a clinical trial, it did show
that people with diabetes and heart disease can still live quite a few years by
taking statins," said Don Bowden, Ph.D., professor of biochemistry at Wake
Forest Baptist and lead author of the study.
The research team studied data from 371 patients who had
participated in the Diabetes Heart Study. At the beginning of the study, the
participants received a CT scan to determine their levels of coronary artery calcium
(CAC); a CAC score greater than 1,000 indicates an increased risk for
cardiovascular disease (CVD).
The team compared the baseline characteristics of 153
patients who died during an average 8.2 years of follow-up and 218 who survived.
The researchers assumed that risk for mortality
would be consistently high among the study participants. However, 60 percent were
still living after more than eight years.
The use of cholesterol-lowering statins at the
baseline exam was the only modifiable risk factor identified to be protective
against mortality. The participants taking statins at the beginning of the
study had a 50 percent increase of being alive as compared to those who didn't.
Bowden said this highlights the importance of widespread
prescription of cholesterol-lowering medications among individuals with Type 2
diabetes who have existing high CVD risk, but added that in previous studies
the rates of statins prescribed for diabetic patients have been low.
"These data suggest that cholesterol-lowering medications
may be used less than recommended and need to be more aggressively targeted as
a critical modifiable risk factor," he said.
Funding for the study was provided by National Institutes
of Health grants R01-HL-67348, R01-HL-092301 and R01-N5-058700.
Co-authors of the study are Amanda Cox, Ph.D., Fang-Ci
Hsu, Ph.D., Barry Freedman, M.D., and David Herrington, M.D., of Wake Forest
Baptist; J. Jeffrey Carr, M.D., of Vanderbilt University School of Medicine;
and Michael Criqui, M.D., of the University of California, San Diego.

If we made good time and reached Chetumal by 10:30 am we may just be able to hop onto the 10:30 bus and get to Cancun well before dinner time. The next departure was 12:30 and then it was hourly thereafter.

My expectations of a social environment with lots of casual bars and a relaxing night scene were way off the mark. I'd purchased tickets to clubs without fully understanding how serious they were here. I should have used that money to buy more activities. But we live and learn. Hindsight is 20/20.

Downtown Cancun is very different to what I saw on the transfer. Uxmal Avenue appears to be made up mostly of garages and sign shops, although I didn�t wander too far.

#TuesdayShoesday: Sneakers with Everything
Let your tired feet rejoice! Thanks to the longevity of the "athlesiure" trend, sneakers are no longer restricted to torture time at the gym. This is great news for pretty much everyone: if you wear heels too much, you can give yourself a break and still look chic, and if you never liked wearing heels in the first place, well, congrats, because sneakers these days are cooler than ever. Last spring, Chanel pretty much solidified this trend by sending all their looks down the runway paired with sneakers:

I won't lie, making the adjustment and wearing sneakers with non-athletic wear was weird at first. I am one of those chicks that just love heels even though they always kill me in the end. When I wear sneakers, I can't help but feel just a little bit cooler; they make your outfit look unexpected and a little bit more edgy. Here are a couple past outfits where I have tried the sneaker-as-fashion trend:
I also love how crazy sneakers are getting these days. You could go with anything from plaid white and clean to bright neon and printed, the possibilities are endless. Check out a couple of my favorite sneaker pics below:

Tropical Vibes
Hello, new favorite summer dress! In case you haven't noticed, palm prints are the new polka dot print lately. Ok, maybe that is a BIT of an exaggeration. If you can sense my enthusiasm through your computer screen, its because I've had this little number for less than 48 hours, and I am already obsessed. Like, I want to buy it in every color/print it comes in obsessed. The color and the fabric are so rich, you wouldn't think it was a
$35 $25 H&M dress. (Hello, its on sale for $10 less!) This dress is super versatile; I wore it pretty casual here, but with some strappy sandals, it would be a great option to wear for a dressier occasion, like a summer wedding. I also love the circle skirt, it kind of makes me just want to skip and spin around constantly, because I'm a nerd like that. In other exciting news, this look was featured on Who What Wear! Check that out here.

"Just put on something cute"
Girlfriends are great. You can always depend on them to be there for you when you need it, give you advice, and keep you grounded. I don't know about you, but whenever I am about to go out with a friend of mine, one of us will inevitably text the other, "So, what are you going to wear?" For me personally, this is a way for me to gauge how dressed up/ down everyone else is going to be so I know I won't be too over the top. Yesterday, two friends of mine had a good laugh at my expense, because apparently whenever they ask me this question, I always respond, "Oh, I'm just gonna put on something cute." Yeah, that is just so helpful and specific, right?!
On another note, I wanted to post this top because a) I'm really obsessed with it, b) eyelet is huge for summer, and c) it looks just like a more expensive top from Zara that is trying to be Oscar de la Renta. This top is pretty and feminine, but the eyelet gives it that something different that is so much more interesting than a plain white shirt. Another reason eyelet is awesome: built in ventilation. It is really heating up around here, so fashion that also keeps me cool is a win-win.

(UN)basic black
I am not usually an all-black kind of girl. If you took one look into my closet, you would see an overwhelming amount of color and print, because those are my favorite things to wear. However, sometimes you gotta go back to the basics. Don't be fooled though: just because you are wearing one color doesn't mean your outfit has to be boring. To keep a monochromatic look interesting, mix pieces that have different cuts and textures. This sheer top is a great piece for that because it is long and sheer with a built-in top. It's also an awesome way to try the crop top trend without baring so much skin, plus its super lightweight and breezy for summer.

Birthday Dress
Last Saturday, I turned the big 2-7. While I am none too pleased at how dangerously close I am to being in my 30's, I can't say that I am never upset at having a birthday party. I really haven't had any kind of social life for the last couple months due to the piles of school assignments I've had, so getting to actually go out and have fun was pretty exciting. This year, I celebrated my 27th birthday at Funky Sole Night at The Echo, which is a great time if you love dancing to some awesome 70's funk jams. (I still have James Brown stuck in my head as I write this). I wanted to get into the theme of the night without looking too costume-y, so lucky for me, the 70's are making a huge comeback in fashion these days. This dress isn't something I would normally buy, but for the look I was going for, I loved it. My boyfriend describes this as looking like his grandmother's couch. If that's the case, she must have a pretty awesome couch.

The metabolic changes that happen with
polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can increase your
risk of becoming overweight or obese. You may also have developed some poor
eating habits. A healthy diet helps you lose weight or stay at a healthy
weight. Controlling your weight can decrease your
insulin levels and may result in more regular
menstrual cycles. This may relieve some of the symptoms of PCOS.
Here are some tips for choosing a healthy diet.
