When approached for comment about Tim Tebow and Mark Sanchez being voted the two most overrated players in the league, Jets coach Rex Ryan struggled to come up with one. But when approached for comment about himself being voted the most overrated coach in the league, he predictably had many things to say. One of which was that he wasn't offended by it (yeah right) and surprise, surprise, Patriots coach Bill Belichick's second place finish into the conversation. "My first thought was I looked and saw who was second," Ryan said on Wednesday. "Hey, I finally beat Belichick. I got him. I knew it would take time, but I finally got him." "Like it hasn't been a tough enough year," Ryan cracked. "Nah, I wasn't offended by it. At the end of the year, we'll see who's overrated." Rex Ryan, chesty as usual. So of course, his next course of action is to defend his record with the players he's coached. Because that's exactly what someone who isn't offended would do. "If you look at it a

Chasing its first title since Diego Maradona played for the club, Napoli routed last-place Pescara 5-1 Sunday to move back within two points of Serie A leader Juventus . Gokhan Inler and Edinson Cavani each scored twice and Marek Hamsik also found the target for Napoli. Iceland midfielder Birkir Bjarnason scored for Pescara in the 18th to briefly make it 2-1. Juventus, which beat 10-man Torino 3-0 in the Turin derby Saturday, has 35 points. Napoli is next with 33 and Fiorentina and Inter Milan are tied for third with 28 each ahead of their matches later Sunday. Fiorentina puts its eight-match unbeaten streak on the line against Sampdoria and Inter faces struggling Palermo. Maradona led Napoli to its only two Serie A titles in 1987 and 1990.

Great product that lives up to description!
Lawanna from ORLANDO, FL – Verified Buyer
I was looking for a buffet to use in my kitchen as a coffee station. The positive reviews of this product swayed my purchase decision the most. The reviews did not disappoint! I love the overall look of this cabinet, and it is the perfect size. It has the appearance of a more expensive piece of furniture. I purchased the all cherry version. The color matches the description nicely. We were missing a critical piece the first day of assembly - a Saturday. We emailed the contact. Before 9am on Monday, there was a response that the replacement part had been shipped. It was received within a few days and the final assembly went very smoothly and there was no noticeable difference in the stain color of the replacement part. Other than being completely satisfied with the overall quality of the piece/end result, the customer service experience has left a lasting impression! I highly recommend this purchase and vendor.
Love this piece of furniture!
Michelle from Mars, PA – Verified Buyer
I ordered the 'cherry' looking finish. It is really beautiful - the finish appeared a bit 'dull' in the on line photo - it is much nicer than pictured - very shiny. This piece is very sturdy and the drawers and doors move nicely. Very nicely made. It was difficult to put together - it took several hours with two of us - but everything went together in the end and extra hardware was even included. I definitely recommend this furniture!
Looks nice and built well
Brent from Mount Airy, MD – Verified Buyer
Put this in our kitchen for additional storage and counter space. Quality looks and construction. Takes a little time to put together and, as usual, the instructions are not perfect but worth the time and effort. Actually included some extra parts rather than shorting you on parts (like some things from overseas).
Happy Customer!
Dorothy from Chicago, IL – Verified Buyer
I am so happy that I decided to purchase this wonderful piece of furniture. The quality of the wood is great, looks like it cost much more and a perfect fit for the small space in my kitchen. Thinking of ordering another one! Assembling was so easy and the extra hardware is not something that you get when ordering from other companies. Love it!!
Very happy!
Stefanie from Greensburg, PA – Verified Buyer
The product is as described, and was a good fit for a corner of the dining room. Storing serving pieces, trays, etc in it. Pros: Good color (black) and nice wood top. Not too difficult to put together.
Great little buffet!
Krista from Dallas, TX – Verified Buyer
I received the product within two days and with a little help got it put together. The drawers are a little smaller than I would like but otherwise it works just great! Pros: Looks just like the picture, arrives quickly Cons: small drawers, not exactly easy to put together
Great addition to our kitchen.
SARAH from SAVANNAH, GA – Verified Buyer
We use this in our kitchen for doggy supplies and mail. It was easy to put together, nice quality, and sturdy. We did have to touch up the stain on one of the drawers, but that was minor.
Fits great in the hallway
Rosemary from Edwardsville, IL – Verified Buyer
It's finish and dimensions are perfect in our entry way. Assembly wasn't too bad, but it did take a bit longer than we expected. And some parts don't line up quite right. Luckily, they're in the back so they can't be seen and don't affect the stability. Overall, I'm pleased with the purchase.
NIce piece
John from Irving, TX – Verified Buyer
Looks great with useful storage and seems very solid although it did take a couple of hours to put together.
Perfect size!
Carol from LEBANON, NJ – Verified Buyer
Great small hall cabinet, lots of storage with shelf. Nice fish, easy to assemble.

By JOSEPH B. NADEAU
CENTRAL FALLS ŌĆō The high waters of the Blackstone River proved to be too much for a pair of canoeists Sunday, overturning their boat and leaving them clinging to a safety line in the turbulent waters near the Roosevelt Avenue Bridge.
The canoeists had been helping to set up the finish line area for the St. Jude ChildrenŌĆÖs Research Hospital Duck Race fundraiser just before 12:50 p.m. when they went into riverŌĆÖs waters, according to the Central Falls Fire Department.
Fire Department Lt. Matt Moulton said the department found two males in the fast moving water below Roosevelt Avenue Bridge when they arrived at the scene.
Luckily the victims were able to hold onto a floating line while firefighters put in the Central Falls Rescue boat and secured the area with additional safety lines, Moulton said. Two firefighters from Pawtucket responding in mutual aid and a Central Falls firefighter went out in the departmentŌĆÖs inflatable boat to pull the victims from the water, Moulton said.
Both of the males suffered hypothermia from their time in the approximately 50 degree river water, according to Moulton.
The Central Falls Rescue and Cumberland Rescue transported the males to Rhode Island Hospital for treatment, Moulton said. Rescue personnel estimated the canoeists had been in fast-moving river water for at least 20 minutes before they were rescued.
The incident occurred behind the Storage America facility in Central Falls at 558 Roosevelt Ave. The duck race fundraiser had been scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. but was called off because of the river emergency. The winning ducks were later selected in a drawing conducted at the Storage America Parking Lot due to the safety concerns.
ŌĆ£It was certainly something more than they planned on,ŌĆØ Moulton said of the riverŌĆÖs quick rise and speed up from the areaŌĆÖs heavy rains on Friday.
The high level of the river could have put the victims, both reported to be wearing personal flotation jackets, at great risk if they had not been able to secure themselves from going down river as their canoe apparently did, according to Moulton.
ŌĆ£They were lucky to have a line to hold onto with all the water running through the area and the height of the river,ŌĆØ he said.
The firefighters from Pawtucket spotted the empty canoe going downriver as they responded to the location and the whereabouts of the boat was not known Sunday night.
High water is always a time for great caution on the Blackstone, according to Moulton. ŌĆ£I just think some people get out on the river and donŌĆÖt understand what the situation will be,ŌĆØ he said. ŌĆ£They were very lucky they were hooked up on a rope so that we could get down there and help them,ŌĆØ he said.
The rain-swollen river also proved to be too much for Chuck Horbert and his fellow paddlers planning to traverse the northern Rhode Island section of their ŌĆ£Blueways AllianceŌĆØ paddle across Rhode Island this week, according John Marsland, President of the Blackstone River Watershed Council/ Friends of the Blackstone.
The group had set out tributaries of the Blackstone River in Burrillville on Saturday and ended their trip at the juncture of the Branch River and Blackstone, Marsland said. The trip apparently has been put off to next year due to the high waters of the rivers and streams in central and western Rhode Island, Marsland said.
ŌĆ£They reported on their website they were lucky to escape with bumps and bruises,ŌĆØ Marsland said. The group faced an 1,800-cubic-foot-per-second flow on the rain-swollen Branch River, Marsland noted. The Blackstone River in Woonsocket peaked at just under a 6,000-cubic-feet-per- second flow this week with a height of just over 8 feet. The riverŌĆÖs flood stage is at 9 feet.
Marsland said he also believes the canoeists in Central Falls were lucky to have been pulled from the river where they were rescued. ŌĆ£There is a falls there and they could have gone over,ŌĆØ he said. Like Lt. Moulton, Marsland said people sometimes underestimate the power of riverŌĆÖs flow.
ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs Mother Nature and you donŌĆÖt expect what it is going to do to you until it is too late,ŌĆØ he said.

text: OffBeat Airbnb is throwing a slumber party at Ikea Image Credit: Håkan Dahlström August 21, 2014 8:53 AM Harrison Weber 0 If you're not reaching, engaging, and monetizing customers on mobile, you're likely losing them to someone else. Register now for the 8th annual MobileBeat, July 13-14, where the best and brightest will be exploring the latest strategies and tactics in the mobile space. Update August 22: The promo will only occur in Sydney, not Perth. In the strangest promo of the century, Airbnb and Ikea have apparently teamed up to throw a mass slumber party in select stores. No, really. Unfortunately for Ikea fans, only Aussies living near Sydney can take advantage of the sleepover — unless you actually want to book a flight for a free night's stay in Ikea. According to the Sydney Morning Herald, "Ikea will be transforming its room sets into 'quirky accommodation' options for three groups of up to four guests" on Aug. 31. People can book these makeshift rooms on Airbnb's site. Although I've grown to loathe Ikea's fiberboard beds over the years, the eye-catching experiment may help Ikea and Airbnb boost adoption in Australia — although it appears Airbnb is already quite popular there, according to Google Trends and app-tracking site App Annie. For context, Airbnb first launched in Australia back in November 2012. Via: SMH, Gizmodo More information: Airbnb Founded in August 2008 and based in San Francisco, California, Airbnb is a community marketplace for people to list, discover, and book unique spaces around the world online or from an iPhone device.

May 12, 2014 - R.N. Monte Altesina - Enna - Nebrodi and Madonie - Sicily - Italy
ALL PHOTOS ON http://www.francescoinviaggio.it - Sicily on the road in 2014
More than a spring day seems like a summer day. Are 08.30 and already the thermometer marks +23 . Today I take advantage of the " courtesy " of his friend Fabrizio for quite a ride in the land of Sicily with a brand new 1200 GS a blast! After a good croissant and coffee quickly leave the chaos of the city and headed for Termini Imerese and from there take the SS285 in the direction of Caccamo . The castle dominates the valley and across the country. I continue on the SS121 through bucolic landscapes . All around the huge expanses of yellow flowers, red, orange and green fields as far as the eye can see. The air is impregnated with an intense smell of odorous broom with the typical yellow color . Its scent will make me company along the way . The temperature of 27.5 marks ! A flock of sheep is cool in the shade of a large tree. The scenery is really beautiful and I am forced to stop several times to take some photos and enjoy the magnificence of these places. Come near Enna leave the SS121 and headed for Lake Nicoletti on SP39 . Shortly after I arrive at the entrance to an amazing place the Natural Reserve of Monte Altesina http://www.riserveenna.it/MonteAltesina.aspx which is characterized by a thick forest of holm oaks. A short unmade road leading to the visitor center and a wide area for the picnic , from which depart several trails for leisurely nature walk . From the top of the mountain you can admire a vast panorama that sweeps from the Madonie Mountains, Mount Etna , Mount La Guardia. Really a great place . Through a tortuosissima road I come to Enna for the lunch hour . Unfortunately, on Monday all the premises are closed and I have to postpone lunch. I take this opportunity to visit the Granfonte . It is a monumental trough built in 1649 by Prince Nicholas Branciforti better known by locals as the " ventiquattru cannola " because of the 24 bronze pour spouts constantly drinkable water into the basin below . From the arches that characterize you can enjoy a very nice view over the plain below . After a freshen up to get some ' relief from the scorching sun I go on the SS117 towards Nicosia. Still colorful meadows and majestic Mount Etna to make his protagonist at every turn . In Nicosia, luckily I find a restaurant serving it's " Locandiera" via S. Antonio Abate , Phone 0935633694 7 cell . 3381428101 run by two of the nicest girls where a motorcyclist ! A true local goodness the starter , the turnovers with ricotta and pistachios and millesfoglie homemade ! After the inevitable coffee it starts to Sperlinga with its majestic castle partly excavated on the rock and then Gangi and follow Geraci Siculo. The views are breathtaking and the road is a " frenzy " of curves but the best is yet to come the stretch of the SS286 between Castelbuono and Geraci is a real " pleasure " motorcycle ! The road crosses a section of the Madonie Park full of ashes from which we derive the Manna http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manna_ (gastronomy ) , a typical Sicilian product that is used among other things in tasty panettone castelbuono and that is growing in a small area of Sicily between Castelbuono and Pollina . The trees carved from reddish color, stand out among the fragrant yellow gorse which covers the whole of the territory. The result is just lovely. Finally I come to the seaside village of Cefalu, pearl of the Madonie . The beautiful day and the scorching sun has led many binder to bathe in long beach . I take this opportunity to relax a bit ' in the sun before returning home. To the next.
Not long
Can't wait. Leaving for Italy and Sicily in 2 weeks. We should have two weeks on Sicily to take it all in. Let me know if you have time to ride. BS.
If you want some tips...ask me !:D

Decorah, Ia. - It might have qualified as the opposite of an Occupy Wall Street or Occupy Iowa assembly.
Rather than protesting the 1 percent of moneyed elite to have arisen in America in the last 30 or so years, the Luther College community rallied to salute certifiably elite Norwegian monarchs who were on hand to help celebrate the colleges 150th birthday.
King Harald V and Queen Sonjas visit also served as the official launch of the royal couples itinerary for a Midwestern tour through Tuesday. Everywhere the couple roamed Thursday, a different choir from this vocally rich college community seemed ready to spring forth and serenade them.
The royal visit just adds the centerpiece to the birthday cake, said Richard Torgerson, Luthers president, as he mingled in front of the 1,600-seat Center for Faith and Life a building for which Haralds father, Olav, laid the cornerstone in 1975.
Torgersons 8-year-old granddaughter, Quinn, bestowed the queen with flowers on the steps after the royal couple disembarked from an SUV, flanked by heavy security.
It was the eighth visit by Norwegian royalty to Luther, the first college in this nation founded by Norwegian immigrants. It was the king and queens first trek to the campus since 1995.
So it was not only the first post-9/11 appearance by the royals but it also came in the wake of Norways horrific July 22 terrorist attack in which an anti-immigrant terrorist killed nearly 80 people and wounded scores more with a car bomb in Oslo, followed by gunfire at a tent camp on a nearby lake island.
The attack was the first thing Harald, 74, mentioned in his official convocation remarks shortly after he raised his voice in both the Norwegian and American national anthems. Thursdays Decorah welcome, he said, stood in striking contrast with the acts of terrorism.
The royal couple also met with four Luther students in the sunshine in the middle of an outdoor amphitheater after the convocation. The extended photo opportunity featured three Luther students from Norway, plus the student body president from Council Bluffs, Jonathan Grieder, who noted that he was odd man out by representing his Swiss-British-Irish-Scottish-French heritage.
Torstein Jystad of Kolborn, Norway, spending his first fall at Luther, said he lost one of his high school classmates in the attack and happened to be nearby that day.
I was on my way out of Oslo when I heard the bomb, he said.
Visiting alumnus Lori Conway grew up in Des Moines, graduated from Luther in 1983 and now lives in Orange County, Calif. She was surprised the royal couple went ahead with their American visit in the wake of the attacks. She had been in Norway just last week, visiting a friend who lives behind Harald and Sonjas castle.
Dahl Centennial Union next door to the Center for Faith and Life bustled with activity both before and after the convocation. Out-of-state folk dancers decked out in homemade Norwegian bunads mingled with students.
Arlene Matson and Betty Coxson from the class of 1948 made the trip from Albert Lea, Minn., and Buffalo Center, respectively. The college was hardly recognizable anymore, Coxson said, compared with the 1940s when Quonset huts dotted campus as married housing for returning GIs and the student body rapidly tripled in size.
Jim Harris, a 63-year-old former elementary school principal from Wisconsin, was on hand to thank the king for his citizens participation in removing bombs from Laos.
Someone needs to tell students here what America owes to Norway, Harris said.
For the last five years he has spent about three months each year in Laos helping to remove unexploded, 40-year-old American ordnance in the Phongsali province on the Chinese border, leftovers from what Harris said was an estimated 2 million tons of bombs dropped on the nation.
Harris got involved when he began to trace the family histories of some of his refugee Laotian students arriving in Wisconsin.
Yet another example of the wonderful global reach of a college campus: You go to an event expecting lutefisk and end up talking about the Vietnam Wars lingering effect on Laos.
Speaking of lutefisk, a $75 luncheon of pork tenderloin wrapped in bacon more of a Midwestern-local theme, I was informed was served for the royals, government officials and prominent Iowa Vikings in the Peace Dining Room on the second floor of the student union. Gov. Terry Branstad in his remarks linked the royal visit to the weeks World Food Prize events in Des Moines, considering founder and 1970 Nobel laureate Norman Borlaugs own Norwegian heritage and intentions to build his prize into the Nobel for food and agriculture.
The day continued as the royals were escorted to a mini Nordic Fest downtown on the streets around the Vesterheim Norwegian-American Museum sort of a Decorah-scale fall version of the spring frenzy over Prince William and Kate Middletons nuptials in Britain.
Harald in the convocation also called America his second home. After all, he first arrived here at age 3 as his family fled Hitler, and he remained in the States for five years. No doubt those days seemed even bleaker than our present life under the shadow of terrorism.
In a sense, Norways king serves as Luthers enduring Big Man on Campus.
Paula Meyer, chair of Luthers Board of Regents, also reminded the convocation crowd of Haralds visit in 1965, when the handsome young prince stole the hearts of all the coeds.
Then Meyer went off script to look over at the kings reaction and interject, You seem to remember that.
Being king is an endless parade of official visits to familiar sites through the decades, but it does have its advantages. Norways elite remain as popular as ever in Decorah, far from both Wall Street and Oslo.

It is crucial for students of Vajrayana Buddhism to find an authentic wisdom teacher and know how to properly rely upon that teacher in order to awaken to their buddha nature and thereby attain full enlightenment. Fortunately, the topic has been thoroughly explored by Jamgon Kongtrul in the tenth chapter of The Treasury of Knowledge. This essential text clearly lays out what credentials and qualities one should look for in a wisdom teacher, why a wisdom teacher is necessary, and how the relationship between this teacher and disciple best develops once it is established.
"This is a critical teaching especially suited for our confusing times, as students in the West continue to adapt to the Buddhist conceptions of devotion, submission, trust, and acceptance."—Shambhala Sun

Personally, I would go with 3 or 6, You don't need to go over zany with a 5 sec logo, and you don't want to give off the wrong vibe either.
Avoid: 10, 1, 2, and 8. The message is unclear and distracting.
|Oct 31 2012, 5:19am Anchor
I like 3 (or 11) but what kind of game are you making? Just a little info to make a better decision.
|Nov 15 2012, 6:17am Anchor
Thanks for your help guys!
|Nov 21 2012, 4:02pm Anchor
Number 3 is definitely what I would have said... the yellow background really makes the head stand out. Good luck with your game!
|Nov 24 2012, 5:59am Anchor
Guys, thanks again to everyone for helping us make the right choice. We stopped at #3. Btw, the game is already live on the App Store: Itunes.apple.com Feel free to check it

46 year old woman | Covington, KY, USA | Seeking men 40-50 within 50 miles
If you always do what you've always done, you will always get what you've always got!!! I'm changing it up...Hello match~~
I'M NOT A WOMAN WHO NEEDS A MAN IN HER LIFE, I'M A WOMAN WHO WANTS ONE! 2/17/13 I'm taking a break from match for a bit so if I don't respond you know why. I've got a great life. I'm happy and want to share it with someone...but not just anyone. The days of courting, opening a door for a lady, and picking flowers from the side of the road "just because" were highly underrated. It's the little things in life that mean the most to me...and if you are someone who feels the same...this might be the "read" for you. I'm probably what you'd call the girl next door type. I can get out and play, get dirty with the best of them but clean up NICELY!!! I can ride quads through a muddy creek bed yet put on a skirt and heels for dinner and a play, I can crack a baseball far enough to make my kids, nieces and nephews go "WOW" but will cry because I stubbed my toe really, really hard. I enjoy being outside, baseball games, festivals, boating and fishing but can also spend my spare time catching up on some reading and snuggling up next to someone for a GREAT movie. I would love someone who enjoyed cooking and would share the kitchen making a meal with me then sitting down and enjoying it together... Family time is important to me...but having that adult time, one on one is what helps keep a relationship strong!!! I'm pretty much a call it like I see it kind of person. Most people appreciate my candor...that and my sarcastic sense of humor. I'm often referred to as playful.. ;o I enjoy laughing and equally enjoy putting a smile on the face of another :D And if you've got a great smile then extra points for that ! Ambition is a part of me but not to a fault. I have a job that I love~ and am studying for my CMA. I can be a bit competitive but in a fun way. I've always enjoyed school and I consider myself a "student of life"...(OF not FOR--hehe) Being open to sharing new experiences, places, and things is important to me and my hope would be the same for you. I've lived in KY all my life but love to travel for leisure.... I have a great family and wonderful friends. They are special to me and finding those people who you thoroughly enjoy spending your life with is a gift, a gift I am willing to share. I hope you too are lucky enough to have that in your life. If you share any of the above or if anything I said makes you want to know more...then wink, email, or whatever else you do on here to get someones attention. I'm not exactly sure on protocol but eventually... Let's have a phone conversation and save the texting for that flirty little message to get your heart beating during your 3pm slump!
Camping , Cooking , Dining out , Fishing/Hunting , Gardening/Landscaping , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Performing arts , Playing cards , Religion/Spiritual , Travel/Sightseeing , Volunteering , Watching sports , Wine tasting

I have Cats, Dogs
I like Birds, Fish, Horses
I have one dog and one cat that are both outside animals and evidently one adopted dog that has shown up and won't leave :D
Middle of the Road
For travel I enjoy the beach or the mountains...Italy is on my list of things to do in the near future. Locally, I enjoy heading to the lake for the weekend or heading to a park, day trips are great too. Any spot is hot with the right company.
Wilmington College, Wilmington, OH
Favorite music...everything from ACDC to Katy Perry, Toby Keith to Adele, Big hair 80's are still favorites! TV that top my list are Big Bang Theory, NCIS, & Tosh.o, though I don't get to watch much. Favorite foods are seafood or a good steak.
I enjoy doing just about anything...people who know me say that I can make watching paint dry FUN! In the summer I like to go to the various festivals, hanging outside, being on the water or grilling with family/friends...
My latest reads are a book on 2012, The Road Less Traveled, The Help, I'm not a thumper but I read the Bible too. Oh and umm Cosmo...

"Where is San Pedro?"
Good question
my road atlas for Mexico lists only about 53 towns with SP as
Part of the name and there are many more too small to show up.And there are also many more SPs in C.A. too. Even Belize has its San Pedro Columbia in the Toledo district down south .
Wolverine , if you and your amigos are going into GT by way of Tenosique and El Ceibo here are a few pointers.
That border is open from only between hours of 9 and 18 7 days a week .
Tenosique is the last Mexican town with Pemex, hotels , restaurants so spend night there if you cannot make it to border the last 70 km before closing time.
On the GT side in El Ceibo there are 3 basic hotels now ,plus food so you could overnight there.
Camping is possible but you have to ask around to get permission from a property owner or at one of the ranchers along the road past town. But really with 3 or 4 guys
sharing costs a hotel would be very cheap for you.
Also hotels ,fuel, restaurants aplenty to be found in El Naranjo.
Then 135 km paved highway to La Libertad and next hotels, so time your
ride or seek a spot to camp at a ranch, there are no formal " campgrounds"
along the way .
From la Libertad it is only about 30 km to the big cluster of towns San Benito-Sta Elena-Flores
Flores is on a little island , pretty place, muy turistico.
Flores hotels cost more than those on mainland and I recommend
Hotel Sa Nicte on Calle 2 in Sta Elena a block southwest off the
causeway to Flores , an easy walk .
You can tent camp in the Tikal Tourist Service area right by the ZA for
Q50 per person . But you could also camp, or get a very economical and
good hotel room at El REMATE , the village along the highway 30 km south
of the TIKAL National Park entry gate where you need to pay the admission
fee for the visit.
I hope I did not scare you away from considering a visit to Belize, it was just
the idea to economize on your riding expenses while covering different
roads. It would be a pity to retrace the same route back home when you have
so much to explore.

Picture yourself spending some time with congenial friends, sharing your lives and pictures from your cell phones." They're curious about that cool game, song, movie, camping trip, art show, or other event that fascinated you. You talk about all kinds of stuff, poetry, styles, personal achievements, relationships, and bad days. You can share your inner child, and laugh together. They sympathetically listen to your feelings about serious topics like politics or climate change, even when they don't agree.
Personal validation comes from paying attention to one another, giving more than you get. Everyone respects you and themselves, despite our amazing range of personal tastes and interests. They'll tell you they don't agree with an idea or behavior without implying you're a bad person or somehow deficient. It's an "I'm OK, You're OK" kind of fellowship, where nobody tries to make himself look better by picking on somebody else.
Nobody here is into mind games. A discussion started with a loaded guilt-throwing question will be deleted.
This group is not intended to compete with other groups on topics they cover but to "fill in the cracks." Whenever a discussion dwells at length on a topic for which there's an existing group, we urge you to provide members a link to that group to continue along their tangent.

Originally written on Fox Sports Southwest | Last updated 10/30/12
The Texas Rangers declined the options on right-handers Scott Feldman and Yoshinori Tateyama Tuesday, making both pitchers free agents. If the Rangers would have picked up the option on Feldman, they would have owed him 9.25 million for the 2013 season. They opted for a 600,000 buyout. Feldman won 39 games for the Rangers in his 204 appearances. He was the club's pitcher of the year after winning 17 games in 2009. This season he bounced between the bullpen and the starting rotation, losing his first six decisions before following that up with six-consecutive victories. He finished the year 6-11 with a 5.09 ERA. Tateyama pitched for the Rangers 53 times over parts of the last two seasons, going 3-0 with a 5.75 ERA. The club also reinstated right-hander Neftali Feliz from the 60-day disabled list and purchased the contract of right-hander Justin Miller. Feliz underwent Tommy John surgery on Aug. 1 and isn't expected to be ready to pitch until next summer. Miller is also co...

This is such a good app
For all you haters out there it's really your fault this doesn't work for you. It's seriously easy to use and record beats. The prerecorded ones are good too. It takes like thirty seconds to figure out. If you can't figure it out youre probably brain dead
It won't save
It is a good beat app but whenever I make my own beat and I leave the app the beat always ends up gone when I get back. That is my only problem
this is such a goooooood app. its so fun because you can try to recreate your favorite songs if you really pay attention to the beat> great app, i really reccomend it... :)

No problem with rain.
This tent was used in heavy Colorado rain and the 2 wall design worked flawlessly. People in other brand tents were complaining while I was bone dry. The vestibule caused absolutely no problem with rain coming 'into' the tent. This simply was not an issue. Actually, it may be one of the better tents out there for heavy rain conditions because of the stout fly design. Since the fly can be easily made tight there is no chance of the fly and the inner wall ever hitting. The 'backpack' type snaps and closures make this a fool proof design for any rain situation.

text: I build airplanes for the most part but have been starting to build tractor/tractor trailers. I just finished this kit and to be honest it was easier to build 40 years ago on Moms kitchen table. I have alot of nostalgia for these kits. Overall it was a hard model to build and the instructions were not real clear. I scratch built the exhaust stacks and heat sheilds for the stacks. But I was glad i built it. My next build is the Revell KW and then when I get my gloss paint skills up to auto/truck standards I will build the Moebius Prostar. All the paint for the cab was done with the rattle can and then polished out some. The frame was painted with the airbrush and then sparayed with a testors semi gloss. Hope you like.

Cherrytree Records & Universal Russia To Issue 10th Year Anniversary Gold Edition Of '200 km/h in the Wrong Lane'
In 2002, the unforgettable duo of Julia Volkova and Lena Katina - known to the entire world as t.A.T.u. - drove a dark-pop semi-truck through the musical landscape with their multi-platinum debut album "200 km/h in the Wrong Lane." To commemorate the 10th year anniversary of this seminal pop album, Cherrytree Records and Universal Russia are issuing a special re-release of t.A.T.u's "200 km/h in the Wrong Lane." The album - which spawned the hits "All The Things She Said" and "Not Gonna Get Us" - was first released on December 10th, 2002.
t.A.T.u.'s irresistible first single, "All The Things She Said" topped the charts around the globe and included a 4-week stint at number 1 in the UK. The album was produced by Trevor Horn (producer of Grace Jones, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Seal), Martin "Cherry Cherry Boom Boom" Kierszenbaum (Cherrytree Records label head and producer of Lady Gaga, Far East Movement, Natalia Kills) and Robert Orton (mixer for Jennifer Lopez, Carly Rae Jepsen, Lana del Rey).
Following the original release of "200 km/h in the Wrong Lane," t.A.T.u. became the first-ever eastern European group to achieve platinum status in any language. To this day, t.A.T.u. remain Russia's most successful musical export with over 6 million units sold and their "200 km/h in the Wrong Lane" debut album is still cited by music journalists as one of the best pop albums.
The 10th Year Anniversary Gold Edition will feature all new artwork, a never-before-released song from the 2002 sessions, "A Simple Motion," a brand new remix of "All The Things She Said" from producer Fernando Garibay (Britney Spears, Lady Gaga, Shakira), special remix in addition to newly-mastered songs.
"200 km/h in the Wrong Lane" - 10th Anniversary Edition will be released by Cherrytree Records/Universal Russia on November 12th, 2012.

any feedback, especially from doulas would be GREAT!
Doula, Student Midwife, Mama, Wife & More
Hi- Does anyone know what to expect to pay a doula to work with you that is not licensed yet, or if to pay them at all? They would be using me as a birth to get their license.
any feedback, especially from doulas would be GREAT!
Doulas in the process of getting certified (it is not licensing) are not necessarily inexperienced, but need some simple paper work filled out by you and your care provider.
Unless you are on Medicaid or in truly dire financial situation a doula expects to be paid for their work.
In NYC doulas using your birth for certification charge apx $200-$400. Some more.
I was already working for 16 years as a doula before I became certified, I charged my regular rate and the client was happy to tick off some boxes on the form for me.
If the doula is choosing not to charge, you pay her at least $100. (or more) for her incidentals to be at your birth.
Have a great birth.

Doula, Student Midwife, Mama, Wife & More
I am unclear why a certified doula would have any right to charge more than an uncertified doula.... just a thought to throw out there. We set our own rates based on our local market, not based on whether we're certified or not. I wouldn't reduce my rates because I'm not certified; in fact, I charge more than the local certified doulas do!
I hope my previous answer was not confusing. I do not think a seasoned doula certifying as a formality for herself should charge less then her regular fee.
IN NYC doulas who are low cost because they lack experience and typically need births for certification and /or experience.
I hope that clarifies my position since I was anti-certification for 16 years! Now I'm just annoying stickler about everyone getting certification or what you know if you want bookings from my service!
My training is with an amazing local program in which I don't have to do any kind of paperwork for my first births. My trainer (and midwife) have both assured me that (training aside), there are many facets of my life that will make me a wonderful doula. The fact that I've given birth in all 3 places (hospital, birthcenter and home) gives me a world of experience and knowledge and although I'm not certified yet, I should be paid for my time- the same time a certified doula would dedicate. The fact that I'm not certified says nothing of my experience or ability to do an exceptional job.
Also, because there is no governing body over all doulas, some choose not to ever become certified- again certification is not synonymous with experience.
(I'm uncertified and I've had 40+ clients, but I know doulas who are certified with 3 or 4 clients in their background)
it's always good to ask those questions. but i do think it should always be paid for. maybe not fullprice, but atleast 1/2. it's hard work. and I don't think I would do someone's yardwork free for the first time lol.

|I don't think I would do someone's yardwork free for the first time lol.
I agree. It seems kind of incredulous to think it should be done for free when I think about the fact that while attending a birth last week in which I shadowed a friend who's a doula, I worked as hard as she did. I was surprised at how comfortable I was and how I really did know what to do. It'd be pretty demeaning to go on to do it for free just because I'm not certified. If I did do it free of charge, considering I have no magic number of births to attend before becoming certified, when would I suddenly be worthy of being paid for my time?
You create your own value. If your skills are valuable to a client and you have something to offer You should get paid.
One of the postpartum doulas who works for my service is in the process of DONA Labor doula certification, she started going to births before, (independent from my service) she charged $300. for her first birth. $400. the second birth. I think she wants to charge around $500-$600. for the next births. That is only four births she has attended! And plans on increasing it pretty quickly to a $1,000.
SHe is getting the certification from DONA because when you go on interviews it immediately stops that long awkward conversation with clients about "why you're not certified".
Clients like when you have completed some type of formal course.
it really is a matter of preference. I'm more concerned about experience, method, ideas, spirituality ect than I am a degree/cert/liscense. I think those give a false sense of security.
Mom of three - (2.5 yrs, 7yrs, and 11yrs). Birthing Doula, editor, and wife to my soulmate. I've had a c/s, hospital VBAC, UC and not yet decided what I'll do about this next little one
Megan Davidson, Labor & Postpartum Doula, Breastfeeding Counselor, Anthropologist, Mom to August (9) and Clay (4), Partner to Shawn.
I honestly think only one client (who actually hired someone else in the end) has ever asked me if I am certified or about my certification. I have a PhD, so I understand a rigorous training process and doula certification is not at all rigorous. Knowing what I know, I would put no faith in someone being certified and lots of faith in how confident, knowledgable, and personable the woman seemed. I always encourage people to hire someone they feel a real connection to, even if that person is not me.
very well put!

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Aug. 21, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Novartis announced today that it has begun shipment of its seasonal influenza vaccines to customers in the US market for the 2013-2014 season. Novartis plans to ship a minimum of 30 million doses of its influenza vaccines to the US market, including Fluvirin (Influenza Virus Vaccine), approved for use in people 4 years of age and older, and Flucelvax (Influenza Virus Vaccine), approved for use in adults 18 years of age and older. In clinical studies, both vaccines demonstrated safety and were shown to help protect against WHO-identified strains of the influenza virus.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends routine seasonal influenza vaccination for all individuals 6 months of age and older. In addition, the CDC advises that it is especially important for certain high-risk groups to receive an influenza vaccine each season, including: people over the age of 50; children under the age of 5; people with chronic illnesses; people with immunosuppression; and residents of nursing homes and other long-term care facilities1,2.
"Last year's flu season, which peaked early and was intense, is a significant reminder of the importance of annual seasonal flu vaccination," said Dr. William Schaffner, professor of medicine and preventive medicine at Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee. "The CDC recommends annual influenza vaccination for all adults, and getting a flu vaccine is an important step in protecting one's health."
Novartis plans to complete the majority of shipments of Fluvirin and Flucelvax by October, in advance of the peak of influenza season. The Novartis portfolio of influenza vaccines helps to ensure diversity of supply to help meet demand and offers providers and consumers options for flu vaccination.
"Each year, Novartis is proud to help meet a significant p

"One of my friends was wearing a pair of Ecco pearl slip-ons that I really liked. She and I share the same foot size and width so she slipped them off and let me wear them. They were so comfortable and looked great, so I thought I would order a pair of my own. She asked for a pair of my loafers and put them on saying I could wear the Eccos until I got mine in the mail. When they arrived I gave her the new ones and kept the "loaners" as they felt so wonderful. Ecco surely knows how to make feet say "thank you". These are without a doubt the most comfortable and stylish loafers I have ever owned! I just love the cute little heel that sets them apart from everyday run of the mill loafers. I only wish they were available in other colors as I would love to have more of them. I have had many questions about them along with many wonderful compliments . Many men have stated they thought they were very "cute" and I really looked good in them!"
