Dear Dave,My husband and I are 28 years old. We're completely debt-free, and we each have great jobs. We don't talk a lot about this kind of stuff, because we've found it causes other people to treat us differently.

Just looking at Harold you're already speculating the man did steroids? Are you serious?
Ridiculous. We've got guys as well built if not better in the gym who don't lift. If you get your body-fat percentage low enough ANYONE will look ripped. ****, if my BF% was low enough I'd look like Brad Pitt in Fight Club. It's all a matter of how fat you are... sub-cutaneous fat covers your muscles. It is for this reason that someone like myself with good abdominal strength can lack a six-pack whereas some skinny little ***** with inferior conditioning can look all ripped in the gut.

Yes, ANYONE can get like Harold Johnson if they train hard enough. He isn't a specimen by any means... he's not even particularly muscular. The ONLY thing I see in him that is exceptional is his low BF%. Genetics only give you a ceiling, they don't force you not to maximize your potential, and no, a Harold Johnson build is not unattainable for many of us.
There's a big difference between looking ripped and powerful and actually being powerful, fast and strong. Bodybuilders are much weaker than power lifters, yet power lifters look like ****. Same with Olympic lifters, many of those guys look downright small at the mid levels of competition, yet they're impossibly strong.

What does it mean when my crush's friend looks at me a lot?
What does it mean when my crush's friend looks at me a lot (today even turned his head around just to look at me) and always has that smirk on his... Show More
Most Helpful Opinion
If your staring at him a lot, which it sounds like you are to get all of this information... he may be thinking the same thing as you. Or worse he could think you like him!
or it could be exactly what you want it to be. who knows just go wit the flow I geuss, and see what happens or what you hear. aka gossip
I wasn't watching. When he passes me, I just feel he is watching. Once I rose my eyes, and he was looking with little smile. Two days ago I was walking down the hall, and just when I was at the door I instinctively turned my head right and apparently he was walking behind me and he was looking at me again with that smirk for much longer than just a glimpse. And when I was in coversation with my acquaintances, he just looked to whom I'm speaking and how. OK maybe I'm too much in it, but its weird
What Guys Said 3
What Girls Said 4
i have been there sister and trust me its something to do with your crush that's if he looks at you while talking to your crush...play it cool and dnt ask him anything just watch he might tell you your crush like you or maybe he does...or he will ask you what you like in a guy then when you tell him he will go to your crush and tell him, then your crush will do every thing you like in a guy...it happend to me sometime..

Found this spa nice and clean, some off the reception staff were rude but the other staff were helpful. My husband had the full one hour body swedish massage booked but he didn't get full body only his back half of the legs, I had the body polish n back neck massage which was good. I would go back to this spa but maybe book more treatments next time to feel more relaxed.

Grey Vetiver by Tom Ford
This starts out with a pleasant bitter orange and nutmeg quality, then hits u with the earthy vetiver note. Unfortunately that "earthiness" continues in a too realistic way. After 20 minutes or so, GREY VETIVER smells like a sweaty horse in a newly plowed field. If a scent can be both slightly sweet and fetid at the same time, this is it. Disappointing.

Intravenous solutions with heparin sodium (derived from porcine intestinal mucosa) are sterile, nonpyrogenic fluids for intravenous administration.
Heparin sodium is indicated for:
Atrial fibrillation with embolization;
Diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic consumption coagulopathies (disseminated intravascular coagulation);
Prevention of clotting in arterial and heart surgery;
Prophylaxis and treatment of peripheral arterial embolism;

Sodic Heparin Effectiveness of the Treatment of Burns [Not yet recruiting]
Burns are injuries caused by agents thermal, chemical, electrical or radioactive who act in
the tissue lining of the human body and may partially or totally destroy the skin and its
annexes, to the deeper layers, as subcutaneous tissue, muscles, tendons and bones .
Studies show that topical heparin has, in addition to the already known anticoagulant
activity, anti-inflammatory properties, analgesic, and neoangiogenic, stimulating blood flow
and increasing the repair of the fabric as well as the restoration of collagen and
reepiteliztion. Moreover, the use of heparin reduces the need for painful medical
procedures, as debridations, surgeries and transplants The intention of this work is to
verify the effectiveness and safety of sodium heparin in the treatment of burns of the skin.
Heparin Versus no Heparin on Duration of Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) Patency in Neonates [Not yet recruiting]
Background: Heparin is an anticoagulant commonly used in the neonatal population as a means
to prevent catheter related occlusion and malfunction by thrombosis (clot). Given the
recent overdoses of infants using heparin, there is concern as to whether heparin should be
used in peripherally inserted central venous catheters (PICC). Scientific evidence
comparing the duration of use of heparin versus no heparin in PICCs is conflicting.
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of continuous IV fluids with
heparin versus IV fluids without heparin on the duration of percutaneously inserted central
venous catheters (PICC) in neonates.
Design: Prospective, double-blind, randomized controlled trial Hypothesis: The use of
heparin in PICC fluids has no difference on duration of catheter patency.
Design and Methods: The study will be conducted at the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at
University Hospital, San Antonio, TX. Randomization to either the experimental group
(no-heparin) or the standard medical group (with heparin) will occur once parental consent
is obtained and prior to PICC insertion. PICC placement will be done by the PICC certified
neonatal nurses. Correct placement of the PICC will be assured by radiography which is
standard procedure.
Parents, NICU team members and staff, and investigators will be masked to the grouping.
Pharmacy will be responsible for randomization. Both the heparin group and the no heparin
group solutions will be dispensed in identical containers, compounded by the pharmacy.
The study medication, heparin, will be mixed by the pharmacy at a standard dose of 0. 5
units/mL for the intravenous infusions used in the heparin group. The experimental group
will receive only the base solution, whether it is 5% dextrose, 0. 9% sodium chloride, or
total parenteral nutrition infused into the PICC line. Pharmacy and the NICU staff will
ensure compatibility of heparin with other infusions. Heparin bonded catheters, heparin
flushes, and hep-lock solutions are not used by the NICU service.
The primary outcome, duration of catheter use, is defined as the time (in hours) between
insertion and removal of the catheter due to occlusion. Occlusion will be defined as the
inability to push 1 mL of 0. 9% sodium chloride, via a 5 mL syringe, through the catheter in
situ or detection of clots along the catheter after removal.
Secondary outcomes include septicemia vs. catheter-related septicemia, phlebitis, death
before discharge, and thrombosis. Septicemia is identified as clinical signs and symptoms
associated with sepsis in the presence of a positive peripheral blood culture obtained
irrespective of the catheter tip culture result. Catheter-related sepsis will be defined as
positive blood culture obtained from the catheter fluid as well as a positive blood culture
obtained from a peripheral venous specimen. Both cultures must demonstrate the same
organism. Phlebitis is defined by visual detection, swelling, and change of skin color
associated with an inflamed vein. Thrombosis is defined as a thrombus along catheter path
diagnosed by visual inspection upon removal of the catheter. Elective versus non-elective
removal will also be recorded.
Adverse events monitored include: heparin induced thrombocytopenia (HIT), defined as a
platelet count dropping below 50 x 103/mL with a positive antibody titer, aPTT > 100 seconds
(This will be measured upon clinical evidence of bleeding), hemorrhage from > 2 sites,
intraventricular hemorrhage, extravasation, and dislodgement or breakage of catheter.
The sample size will be determined based on retrospective data collection to reach a
statistical power of 80% with a type I error or 0. 05. The investigators expect the sample
size to be approximately 102 patients in each arm of the study.
The study will terminate once the PICC is discontinued or if there is an indication to stop
the study early for safety reasons. These could include increased adverse events in one
group versus the other. A Safety Control Panel composed of 2 neonatologists from another
site will review the data at the points when 1/3 and then 2/3 of total patient enrollment
has been achieved.
Data Collection and Analysis: Data will be collected and tabulated on a Microsoft Excel
spreadsheet using unique patient identifiers and stored at a secure location at UHS then
analyzed using appropriate statistical tests.
Efficacy and Safety of Sodium Heparin in Patients (Cristália) [Not yet recruiting]
A Non-inferiority Study Comparing Two Heparin Sodium Preparations in Hip Fracture Surgery [Not yet recruiting]
The primary objective and endpoints of the study is compare the efficacy of two products
containing heparin sodium, evaluating if the formulation produced by Eurofarma can be
considered non-inferior to the reference product.
Comparison of Heparin Types; Efficacy and Safety [Not yet recruiting]

For those that are off this week, you will be treated to a lot of hockey, as the 2013 World Junior Championships are underway from Ufa, Russia. The Rangers have two prospects playing in the tournament: J.T. Miller for the USA and Peter Ceresnak for Slovakia. Ceresnak and Slovakia surprised a lot of people this morning, as they took Russia to overtime in their opener. In the end, a late penalty doomed the Slovaks, and the Russians converted on the 4-on-3 powerplay with less than a minute to go, winning the game 3-2. Ceresnak did not have a point in the contest, and was on the ice for the first Russia goal and the first Slovakia goal, finishing with an even rating. Tweet

This week may have been the week of the "Snowpocalypse That Never Was" in the media, and people complaining about how the press and the people making the decisions overreacted. Me? I'm firmly in the "better safe than sorry" camp in that regard. Even my card of the day for the start of the storm was the 5 of Pentacles… I was tending to agree with the weathermen that the storm would be as bad as they said it would be.
PaganSquare is a community blog space where Pagans can discuss topics relevant to the life and spiritual practice of all Pagans.
This post also appears on www.tarotbyhilary.com.
For those of you who are new to the Tarot Blog hop, the idea behind this is that the Tarot community joins together every six weeks to blog on a specific topic. That topic is proposed by whomever is wrangling the hop. We began in 2012 with an Imbolc hop that asked, "How can I be a better candle." This is our third year. The bloggers change and we are always happy for more to join us. You can learn more here. All those who work to promote camaraderie and community within the Tarot world are welcome....

Fair enough! And wherever that creativity comes from or however it is expressed, I'm very glad to witness it
This is a wonderfully creative spread, I love it!!!
Thanks so much, Olivia!
As you may have noticed, I've been a bit scarce around here since last autumn. Many changes have occurred in my life which I won't bore you with just now. However, one good thing that came out of the past several months is a better idea of how I want to use this blog. See, each of my blogs has a personality, and this one was taking a little longer to coalesce. I liked having a place to write about some more 101-focused information, since there are still plenty of folks who are just learning, but I was having trouble coming up with ideas--until now. While I have spent many years helping other pagan folk along their paths, you may consider this my first official advice column.
You're welcome to ask me questions at email@example.com. You will be anonymous, though your question will be posted as quoted. The more questions I get, the more I can post!...
I felt like I was holding on by a thread after my husband's heart attack. I found myself a caretaker while working a full-time job, dealing with our out-of-touch employer, editing my new manuscript for my publisher, keeping my radio show on the air and trying to pay the bills. Then the opportunity to spend a couple days floating on the Lazy River at a resort in Las Vegas presented itself.
Yes, it was in the hottest part of summer in Las Vegas, but anything was better than being in the office where I could not shake off my boss' demoralizing words. I thought our performance for the last thirty years in his employ buffered us from the angst and vulnerability so many workers were feeling these days, but no. His reply to my query if my husband could expect sick leave during this health crisis kept echoing in my ears. "I don't want to pay Roy for sitting home on the couch!" It took all my strength to refrain from hoping in his next life he came back as the guy who cleans out port-o-potties.
So we packed up the car and headed for Las Vegas and the Lazy River. Days of floating in quiet contemplation was just what I needed to recharge my batteries and have a moment to think about something besides stents, pills and doctors and how unappreciated I was feeling. At first the Lazy River just allowed, allowed, allowed me to just be, with no pressure. I could drift with no place to go but round and round, softly, gently, and quietly. Even the kids sharing the Lazy River were not a source of aggravation. It was peaceful and my brain could click off for a few hours.
As the hours turned into days, I began to feel like myself again and before I knew it the creative juices were flowing and this Lazy River became a source of inspiration.
Sometimes we can just float along in life, easily avoiding the chaos all around us, without having to put forth much effort to avoid turbulents. We see others around us going under but somehow we've managed to catch the current that just steadily pulls us along out of harms way. We may be lucky enough to continue like that for a bit but sooner or later we're going to brush up against the rocks. We might even feel as if we're drowning as we are unable to avoid getting sucked beneath rapids and struggle to the surface gasping for air. If we're lucky, in the next few times around the bend, we might be able to catch our breath. We feel lucky to maneuver ourselves away from the crushing weight of the waterfalls, large and small, we see along the journey.
As we go round and round, with each turn of the wheel, we learn to adapt. We try different positions to discern how to place ourselves so that we float along as stable as possible. We stretch and strengthen our muscles to avoid the rocks and waterfalls. We keep an eye on the horizon so we might manage to avoid chaos and not get stuck in log jams. We wear protective covering to ward off direct hits we might not avoid along the way. And sometimes, if we look for it, gifts present themselves during the struggle, and it is oh so important to embrace those moments in gratitude. I am grateful. I am grateful. I am grateful.
So I've only recently returned home from fest and visiting my sister. This is the first good opportunity I've had to sit down and write. Forgive my lateness.
One of the big rituals at the Pagan festival I attend is the Drawing Down. It is where multiple priests and priestesses allow a divinity to take temporary possession of their bodies so that they can speak with devotees. Who you speak with is typically luck of the draw. Rarely are masculine divinities drawn down in my experience, as female divinities are just more popular it seems. Even more rare, in my experience, is having a walker seek out a particular person at a divinity's behest. I experienced both this time.
Melia, this is spot on with how I have experienced Odhin as "The Old Man". Not all the time. But yes, he can be quite chatty when
Nice! It is great to have one's impressions match someone else's. It gives me a bit more oomph to continue to write about my own
Actually, yes. In one of the two Wiccan traditions I have received initiation in, it is considered acceptable, even ideal, for Pr
Ah Ares. I have a soft spot for him. His "good" points are often overlooked. Thanks for sharing!

I firmly believe that there is a tarot deck out there for everyone. I realized this as I was looking down at my Joie de Vivre deck and wondering, "What kind of person would choose this deck?" Someone that is fun-loving and appreciative of the whimsy in life....

COPS star wars style lol love it.
The 501st Legion, also known as the 501st Battalion during the Clone Wars and later known as "Vader's Fist" and the Five Hundred and First, was an elite unit of clone troopers commissioned by Supreme Chancellor Palpatine during the Clone Wars that later became a stormtrooper unit. Made up of units like Torrent Company, the 501st fought in many battles, such as the Battle of Teth and the Battle of Coruscant, becoming one of the most well-known legions. In 19 BBY, the 501st became Darth Vader's personal unit as he led them during Operation: Knightfall, in which the clones helped take down the Jedi, whom they believed to be traitors to the Republic.
COPS star wars style lol love it.

Expand your lighting options and get the most out of your flash as photographer and teacher Brent Winebrenner takes a practical, hands-on look at the theory behind exposure, with a special emphasis on electronic flash exposure.
Even with today's automatic flash systems, there are good reasons to understand how flash exposure really works. Brent details these concepts in this course. The course describes how to calculate the true power of your flash and how to modify its output to match your needs, a technique that can extend battery life, reduce recycle time, and provide exposure control that is more predictable than fully automatic modes. The course concludes with several shooting scenarios during which Brent explores the creative use of gels, reflectors, and other light modifiers.
In this movie we'll review in more detail how the exposure variables, ISO, shutter speed, and aperture work when using flash. Then in the next movie we'll introduce two new variables, the power of the flash, and the flash to subject distance, which when considered in combination with one another determine brightness or luminance. To review, let's start with the variables you should already be familiar with. First off, ISO. Let's see the visual effect of changing your ISO by looking at a series of images that I have shot in a controlled environment.
I began at ISO 100, and I bracketed the ISO in third stop increments all the way to 1600 without adjusting any other exposure setting. As expected, the mannequin in front is properly exposed in the first frame, while the mannequin in back is underexposed. As I increase the ISO the exposure got brighter until at ISO 400, the mannequin in front is two stops overexposed and the dummy in back is properly exposed. As the ISO continue to increase both manikins became increasingly overexposed.
The practical consequence of all of this is that you can effectively increase the power of your flash simply by increasing the ISO. Now for variable number two, shutter speed. The first thing to note about shooting with strobes is that the shutter speed does not affect the flash exposure at all. Not one little bit. Notice I said flash exposure. If you're shooting in an environment with ambient light, you have to be aware that you can accumulate light from both the ambient source and the flash pop changing both the exposure and the aesthetics.
But now let's review a series of images that I took to illustrate the point that shutter speed does not affect flash exposure. These images were taken using shutter speeds of 2 seconds, 1/20 of a second, 1/200 of a second, and finally 1/500 of a second. Because we conducted our test in the dark, we can also conclude that the exposures were made by the light from the flash itself and nothing else. We see that the first three exposures are identical proving that the shutter speed does not affect flash exposure.
I've included the last exposure because it's above the sync speed on my camera. It's important to see and understand what happens when the shutter speed is faster than the sync speed. See how the image is divided? We see our subject as normally exposed in the top of the frame but nothing is registered in the bottom. That occurred because the shutter curtain wasn't completely open when the flash fired preventing the flash pop from reaching that part of the chip. Remember, the sync speed is the fastest shutter speed that you can use while using your flash.
For most cameras with focal-plane shutters, normal sync speed ranges between 1/200 to 1/500 of a second. Now on to the third variable aperture. Let's review some test images to see how it affects flash exposures. In this series I set my flash to subject distance to provide a normal exposure at f/8, but I began shooting at f/2.8 and bracketed it in third stop increments until I reached f/22. As expected, the series proves that unlike shutter speed, aperture clearly affects flash exposure.
But furthermore, the results are predictable once you learn a few basics. So we've seen that while our shutter speed does not affect flash exposure, both our ISO and aperture settings do. This means that we'll have to coordinate our aperture with the ISO and the illumination level to achieve proper flash exposure. In the next movie we'll see that controlling the illumination level is a function of the flash power and the flash to subject distance. That's a big part of the magic of flash photography.

A question was posted in the IBM DeveloperWorks forum for Notes/Domino 8 about the possibility to detect from within Notes if a computer is equipped with a touch screen. The answer was that you have to check if a specific DLL is installed, which is done though the registry. The original posted then asked how to do […]

IBM ConnectED 2015 – The Good and The Bad
Sat, Jan 31st 2015 6:26p Karl-Henry Martinsson
When I arrived to Orlando for the 18th time to attend Lotusphere (now renamed IBM ConnectED), it was with mixed feelings. The conference was much smaller than before, and everyone expected this to be the last conference in the Lotusphere format in Orlando. IBM had a contract with Disney that expired after the 2015 conference and we all knew it. […]

#ThrowbackThursday – My old HP calculators
Thu, Sep 11th 2014 6:57a Karl-Henry Martinsson
I have previously here on my blog mentioned my preference for HP calculators.

The joy of programming
Wed, Aug 6th 2014 12:36p Karl-Henry Martinsson
I have been programming since the beginning of 1983. I started over 30 years ago with Basic, then went to Pascal after about 3 years. I then in fairly quick succession went to C, Visual Basic, VBA and then a few years later (in 1996) to Lotusscript. Along the way I also picked up Javascript, as well […]

Risperdal had been used off-label to treat children with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder
WEDNESDAY, Aug. 22 (HealthDay News) -- The powerful anti-psychotic drug Risperdal was approved by the U.S. and Food Administration on Wednesday for use in children and adolescents who have schizophrenia or bipolar disorder.
Until this point, the agency hadn't approved any drug for the treatment of adolescent schizophrenia. For bipolar disorder, only lithium is approved for use in adolescents aged 12 and older.
"The FDA has approved Risperdal for treating schizophrenia in adolescents 13 to 17 and for the short-term [three-week] treatment of bipolar I disorder in children and adolescents 10 to 17," Dr. Thomas Laughren, director of the Division of Psychiatry Products at the agency's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, said during a midday teleconference.
One expert thinks the move is warranted.
"This is a drug that has real value," said Dr. Charles Goodstein, a clinical professor of psychiatry at New York University Medical School. "But one has to exercise a degree of caution when using what amount to be heavy-duty medications in young children and adolescents."
Goodstein noted that diagnosing children with these conditions is difficult, and that can lead to misdiagnosis and the prescribing of inappropriate medications. "One has to very careful that this medication is not overused," he said.
"Bottom line, it's a valuable medication, one that can produce momentous changes in a person's functioning, but a medication that should be used with great care, because it does have side effects, and too often diagnoses are made more readily than they should be made," Goodstein said.
The agency first approved Risperdal (risperidone) in 1993 for treating schizophrenia in adults. It was approved subsequently for the short-term treatment of acute manic or mixed episodes of bipolar I disorder in adul

I'm all about trying new things and just...
I'm all about trying new things and just opening myself up to all aspects of the world. I love traveling and would love to share that with someone. I am all about healthy living and trying different activities....except maybe skydiving...maybe eventually... I enjoy making people laugh, going for a hike, playing some recreation sports, cooking - especially trying new recipes, or checking out a new restaurant. I'm content watching a movie with a glass of wine, or checking out the newest hot spot - as long as I can hear other people talking to me in that location. I am an eternal optimist that feels that there is always something great around the corner. I'd like to find someone who is open and eager to take on new adventures, visit new destinations, and to help me become a better all around person, as I do the same with them! Smile and Cheers

Originally written on Celtics Life | Last updated 1/2/13
Rajon Rondo and the Boston Celtics fell to the Memphis Grizzlies 93-83 ESPN Boxscore Player Grades: Rajon Rondo: Still looking affected by his hip injury, Rondo was unable to penetrate as well as he normally would. Played great help defense, but with Bradley off the floor he was unable to keep up with Conley's speed due to his hip. Jumper was completely off today, and made some boneheaded decisions in crunch-time. Needs to get healthy. B- Avery Bradley:Looked rusty on offense, but as good as ever on defense. Seems like he will be fine, but just needs more conditioning and practice. Also needs to get back on same page with Rondo, they messed up a couple plays between them tonight. Looks like he did a great job with his rehab. B Paul Pierce: Kept the Celtics in the game early on with his scoring. Rebounded well. Stayed a little too confident in his 3-point shot, which failed him down the stretch. His defense was forgettable. Had a pretty good game overall. B Kevin Garnett: Ha...

Weekend weather: Slightly warmer temps, then rain ... and then snow
For Tri-State residents waiting on springlike weather to make its arrival in the region, this weekend will be a mixed bag.
Today's high temperature is expected to reach at least the mid-40s — an accomplishment considering the mercury failed to reach the 40-degree mark on Wednesday or Thursday. And on Saturday, the weather is expected to be a season-appropriate 53 degrees, according to the National Weather Service forecast for Evansville.
Low temperatures both today and Saturday are still expected to drop into the 30s.
But the possibility of snow — and definitely colder weather — pops back into the forecast Sunday night, according to the weather service, and the flurries could linger into Monday morning. Sunday's high is excepted to stay in the high 30s.
The chance of precipitation is expected to come into the Evansville area Saturday night but start as rain. According to the current forecast, there's an 80 percent chance of rain Saturday night and a 70 percent chance of showers Sunday during the day. As of this morning, the weather service is predicting a 50 percent chance of snow Sunday night.

Techonomy Contributors
About Me
Techonomy casts its lens broadly across business and society in order to highlight and explore the manifold ways in which tech's impact is felt. We believe there is no field in which tech is not having a transformative impact. Lines are being blurred, in large part by developments driven by technology, so that many once-distinct disciplines are overlapping, consolidating, and cross-fertilizing. We seek conversation at the highest level about the role of technology in business and social progress, as we advocate for greater understanding about the pace of change and what it means for everyone.
Techonomy hosts conferences, like our forthcoming Techonomy 2014 in Half Moon Bay, Calif. We also publish editorial content, including a growing amount of video journalism, across a number of platforms. We aim our programs and content at leaders, but we also believe that the definition of a leader is changing quickly. Thanks again in large part to technology, power is being broadly dispersed and leaders are emerging at every level of society more rapidly and fluidly than ever before.

'It Happened One Night' (1934)
A charming down-on-his-luck newspaper reporter comes across the story of the decade when he discovers a runaway heiress traveling "incognito" on a bus. The bus trip also leads to a road romance for the two.
The update: How to get these two on a Greyhound in 2009? The heiress discovers the authorities (and paparazzi) are combing airports and train stations looking for her, so the bus is the safest option. And considering that dailies are giving little to no compensation to their axed journalists, an unemployed reporter could afford to travel only by bus as he searches for a new job.

31 year old man | Spanaway, WA, USA | Seeking women 25-29 within 75 miles
Underestimate me, I dare you!
I'm moving back to the Spanaway area, after having been gone for almost 4 years. I'm first and foremost looking for a great friend. Obviously if it leads to more, then, by all means, I won't be unhappy in the least. Ultimately I am looking for a long term relationship, marriage, family, etc.. However, I strongly desire building a solid friendship along the way, that will undoubtedly survive the best and worst of times. Moving back, I'm finding myself in a situation where I am once again becoming as active as I used to be. I run fairly regularly and would like to start looking for 5k fun runs to participate in and eventually look at half marathons, etc... Rock climbing, biking, hiking/back packing... Really, it would be nice to find someone to share some adventures with, beyond dinner and whatever else it is normal people do. Personally, I'm a very laid back individual. I spent four years enlisted in the Marine Corps. I don't stress out very easily, I'm looking for someone who can handle stressors and not freak out. Or, in the least, not project that frustration onto the others around them. I don't sweat the little things. I have an extremely dry sense of humor, very sarcastic. I enjoy stupid humor, Super Troopers, just about anything with Will Ferrel in it.... Some people judge, without getting to know who I am. Honestly, I'm looking for someone who is happy with themselves, has fun in life and doesn't let every little thing bog them down. Not necessarily care free, but knows how to look at the bigger picture.

I love music, Avenged, Bullet, Atreyu... Pretty much anything though.
I really enjoy watching movies, new, old, in the theater or at home. My favorites are very typical guy, 300 and Gladiator. However, I enjoy comedy, drama and even the occasional romantic comedy. Beyond that, I want to become more active, running, et
I read a rough draft copy of a book written by a friend of a friend. I'm not exactly sure how to classify it. Very good though.

Trying to give something back to the Community...
To help beef up my deployment skills and demonstrate to the outside world I know the difference between LiteTouch and ZeroTouch and all of the supported technologies/ scenarios, I decided to have a go at the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) Exam 70-635 today.
I'm delighted to say that I passed with flying colours.
If you're thinking of doing it then a good starting point is the recommended Preparation Materials (as there is no official MOC or books for this one but don't let that put you off), details of which you can find at:
Rumour has it a MDT 2010 Exam is in the works although I've not seen anything official or heard of any timescales on this one.
Good luck if you do decide to do it and let me know how you get on.
Right off to start studying for 70-680 TS: Windows 7, Configuring next (wish me luck).
