41 year old man | Brea, CA, USA | Seeking women 25-41 within 25 miles
Hakuna Matata! It means no worries. Take a load off, I promise you I won't bite.
I'm a gentleman who likes to treat other's the same way I too would like to be treated. I love a great adventure, I'm just looking for a woman who'd like to join me on this adventure we call life. Rapids ahead ! I love to laugh, so quite honestly I can say that I'm filthy rich with laughter, but never at another person's expense. I'm a driven individual, which means I know what I want out of life, and I actively seek to make reality of hopes and dreams within reality, and then some that are outside of reality. Hey, I've got a very vivid imagination, and if I'm going to dream, I'm going to dream big! At the same time, I also keep my life very simple. I'm humble at heart and have a strong work ethic. I'm very playful, affectionate and energetic, which means I work very hard and play much harder. Living a simple and honest life keeps my life sooo much fun. I'm confident in who I am and the life I've made for myself, and take pride in the fact that I need very few things in life. So, I WANT a woman in my life, but don't NEED one. I'm looking for a woman who takes pride in taking care of herself, both mentally and physically. Confidence is sexy, and laughter is inviting. I'm not perfect by any person's imagnation, and I don't expect you to be either. I want you by my side, the two of us working together. Adventure awaits!! You with me?

Do you know the difference between Dog and Cat theology? The dog says, you pet me, love me and feed me, hmm, you must be god. The cat says, you pet me, love me and feed me, hmm, I must be god.

Supreme Court upholds premium tax credits! A win for millions of families who rely on financial assistance for health coverage.
Medicaid protects middle-class families, seniors, children, and people with disabilities.
One in every five Americans gets their health care through Medicaid. Medicaid includes people from all walks of life—they range from middle-class individuals who have suffered a catastrophic illness, to seniors living in longterm care (70 percent of all nursing home residents rely on Medicaid), to newborns and children. Learn about who benefits from Medicaid expansion.
Medicaid makes our health system stronger for all of us.
Medicaid insures one in five Americans and one in three of the nation's children. Medicaid helps people afford doctor visits so that they can stay healthy. And it pays for hospital stays and long-term care. Medicaid helps doctors and hospitals, too. By paying for the health care needs of low-income people, Medicaid reduces hospitals' burden of unpaid care. This helps hospitals and makes the health care system stronger for all of us.
Medicaid is a federal and state program that boosts state economies.
All states already participate in the Medicaid program, and half have decided to use federal dollars to expand Medicaid even further. That's because they know that, in addition to helping keep health care costs in check, Medicaid adds jobs and helps state budgets.
And Medicaid is flexible. This efficiently run program lets states tailor benefits, within broad federal guidelines, to better meet the needs of their residents.
Families USA works to keep Medicaid strong.
We partner with states to help them expand Medicaid. We work to protect Medicaid funding at the state and federal levels. And we engage advocates to promote best practices and help states make changes that give residents good health coverage and high-quality care.

Darkstar: The Interactive Movie is an interactive movie video game written, produced, edited, animated, and directed by J. Allen Williams,[1] owner of the American animation studio Parallax Studio. It features actor Clive Robertson (Sunset Beach),[2] the entire original cast of Mystery Science Theater 3000,[3] animations by the prolific comic book artist Richard Corben,[4] and the final work of actor Peter Graves who narrated the game. Darkstar was released online November 5, 2010 through the Darkstar website and as a downloadable through Strategy First.[5] It was re-released in stores December 9, 2011 in the United Kingdom and Ireland through Lace Mamba Global.[6]
Interactive movie[edit]
Darkstar differs from the standard game format in that it contains over thirteen hours of live action cinema–far more than any previous full motion video game. Creator and Parallax Studio CEO J. Allen Williams gave a brief description of the project to the website Slightly Deranged saying:
|Good or bad, there is nothing traditional about Darkstar. Yes, it does have some puzzles and an inventory of objects you collect and will need from time to time. And there is also a world to explore, executed in a vaguely similar way as you'd see in some of the later Myst series with pre-rendered walks from place to place and full 360 degree up and down panoramas when you stop. That's where the similarity ends.
The entire "tour" is peppered with cinema, so when you encounter certain objects or plot points, the "game" breaks into "film" mode for brief story enhancements. My idea from the start is that somebody watching you play Darkstar might wonder whether they are watching a game unfold, or if they are watching a movie. Also, there is a "back-story" that is nearly an hour long that is broken into ten chapters plus a prologue. Ten "bioloks" correspond to each chapter, and as you find them the chapters are unlocked so that you may view them, giving more insight from the past as to what is going on right now in the present. The "bioloks" can be opened in different order depending on the routes you take in the ship and in the story, but they open the story chapters in order 1-10. The prologue is available immediately for free, and any of the flicks may be viewed at any time after they are unlocked. After combining this footage with in-game cinema, you're looking at over four hours of cinema. And any of it may be clicked past if you wish to just explore.[7]
The player is Captain John O'Neil of the Westwick. You awaken from a cryogenic sleep that has spanned a period of over 300 years. As a result of the abnormally long hibernation, you have no memory as to who you are, where you are, or why you are there. Beside you are three other sleep chambers. One is empty, the other is occupied by a beautiful woman, and in the final chamber lies the body of a man–300 years dead and missing his left hand.
Your ship is damaged and helplessly adrift in the orbit of the ominous Theta Alpha III. An unknown crew member has deleted any data that provides an explanation as to why this is.
You know, despite the emptiness and desolation, that someone is in the cold silence waiting for you.
And, as if the day isn't bad enough, the Earth has been destroyed for three centuries.[8]
Darkstar has roughly thirteen hours of live-action cinema including a cast of all real actors. It stars Clive Robertson as Westwick Captain John O'Neil.[9] It also features the entire original cast of Mystery Science Theater 3000 including its creator Joel Hodgson as Scythe Commander Kane Cooper, Trace Beaulieu as Westwick First Officer Ross Perryman, Frank Conniff as both Westwick Navigator Alan Burk and the voice of the quirky robot SIMON (Semi Intelligent Motorized Observation Network), Mary Jo Pehl as both Bridgebuilder Captain Beth Ingram and the voice of the computer Westwick Main, and J. Elvis Weinstein as Galactic Discovery II Captain Cedrick Stone. Also from MST3K is Beth "Beez" McKeever as Westwick Pilot Paige Palmer who stars across from Clive Robertson. Darkstar was also the final work of legendary actor Peter Graves who is famous for his roles in such films as Airplane!, Men in Black II, and his lead as Jim Phelps in the original Mission: Impossible television series.[10]
In addition to Clive Robertson and the MST3K players, the production has a cast of nearly fifty actors, almost all of whom are local to Springfield, Missouri and the surrounding area.[11]

Darkstar was written, produced, animated, edited, and directed by J. Allen Williams over the course of nearly a decade. Though most of the credit goes to Williams alone, a number of others contributed to the enormous production. Additional animations for Darkstar were done by the prolific American illustrator and comic book artist Richard Corben who is best known for his "Den" character featured in the 1981 film Heavy Metal and for his comics featured in the magazine of the same name. Other noteworthy crew members include cinematographer Roger Jared, co-producer Mark L. Walters, electronic media producer Dahlia Clark, and composers Jimmy Pitts, Bill Bruce, and J. Allen Williams.[12]
|Darkstar: Musical Score from the Interactive Movie
|Soundtrack album by Jimmy Pitts, Bill Bruce, and J. Allen Williams
|5 November 2010
|145 minutes
The neoclassical, progressive rock soundtrack to Darkstar was composed and performed by Jimmy Pitts (keyboards and pianos), Bill Bruce (guitars and percussion), and J. Allen Williams (bass guitar) under the moniker "Progressive Sound And MetalWorx". Two other performers include Brent Frazier (guitars) and James Lee Dillard (percussion).[13] Additional music for Darkstar was composed by Ruell Chappell, an original member of the Ozark Mountain Daredevils. Though the soundtrack was originally intended to feature over an hour of music by the rock band Rush, negotiations with Universal Music eventually dissolved and Williams was forced to replace much of the footage with an entirely original score.[14]
The soundtrack was released in tandem with the game and features 38 tracks of music on a 2-disk set.[15]

Reception for the soundtrack has been positive. In a review of Darkstar at diehardgamefan.com, Alex Lucard rated the soundtrack as "Unparalleled" and wrote, "This is without a doubt one of the the [sic] best scores I have heard all year."[16]
Critical reception of Darkstar has been negative, with a 36% metacritic average.[17] The most positive reaction was from Drummond Doroski of the website Adventure Gamers, who gave Darkstar 3 out of 5 stars. "It's not a game for everyone, as some are sure to be turned off by the rarity and simplicity of its puzzles, while others may not relish a return to the infamous days of live actors as their game characters, particularly when some of the acting reminds us why this isn't always a good idea." [18] Games TM, on the other hand, gave the game 1/10, saying simply "It's not a game."[19] PC PowerPlay also reviewed it negatively, with their 2/10 review calling Darkstar "A crime. Send this one to the colonies."[20]

Archived Story
Dr. Turner to head Alexander City First Baptist ChurchPublished 11:14am Tuesday, September 10, 2013
After the post remained vacant for more than a year and a half, First Baptist Church of Alexander City has hired a new pastor.
Dr. Joe Turner took the pulpit Sept. 1 and will replace Dr. Gerald Hallmark, who left ACFBC in April of 2012.
Turner is a Memphis, Tenn. Native and has pastored at churches in Tennessee, Mississippi , Louisiana and with this move, Alabama.
Turner has been in the ministry since 1987, but he said he didn't set out in life to be a pastor.
"It found me," Turner said. "It wasn't something I always wanted to do, just something God called me to do."
Prior to answering the call to ministry in 1987, Turner said he worked for AutoZone.
Turner has a wife and two children, including a daughter who lives in Savannah, Ga. and a son who is currently a student at University of North Alabama in Florence.
Though Turner is still looking for a house in the area, he is already feeling quite at home.
"I grew up on a lake, so the lake here is very comforting," Turner said.
And despite growing up in Tennessee Volunteers country, Turner said he is an avid Alabama fan, which came from growing up during Tuscaloosa's Bear Bryant years.
Turner received his doctorate in Christian Ministry from the Southern Baptist School for Biblical Studies in Jacksonville, Fla. Turner said he is looking forward to leading a new church.
"I think this church has a great future," Turner said. "We are anticipating some good things.'

In Canada, this is also known as Neostrata's Oil Free Smoothing Lotion, Level 3, not to be confused with the Daytime Smoothing Lotion, which is, in my opinion, not as good.
I use this cream nightly and it is an amazing product. It is quite intense, so if you have very sensitive skin, be very careful with how often you apply. My skin is fairly used to AHA's so it responds well. This stuff is fantastic for smoothing your skin and evening skintone. This works so well that my husband's male friend even made a comment as to how smooth my skin was looking and that I looked younger.
I don't use this during the day too, I tried and it was just too much for my skin. Be sure to use the advice and apply sunscreen during the day as the glycolic acid will thin your skin. I don't find that this makes my skin oily in the least, if anything, it could be a bit more moisturizing but will probably be perfect when the summertime finally rolls around. Oh, and I don't find this has any offensive scent whatsoever. What an amazing product, so glad I tried it.
Update: I got away from using this for awhile, not sure why, just trying other products. I started using this again 2 days ago and I already see such a difference in my skin. It's so smooth and the tone is already evening out. I will never stray again.

I used this product for 2 months and it's lovely. I love that it's oil-free and it really makes your skin lovely and soft & helps to fade blemish marks (didn't notice any freckles/ pigmentation change though). I stopped using this for the time being as my dermatologist has me having some chemical peels and I don't want to over-do it, but I will use this product again once the peels are finished. Great for night time, perhaps a little greasy for the daytime, but may suit your skin just fine.

Would I buy this product again? over and over!
I use this of a night, have been for about 6 weeks and its the best. My skin just keeps getting better and better.
I havent broken out...my pores are looking more refined...
I began using this cream slowly, every 2nd night, and then after a week I started using it every night and Ive never become irritated or flaky because of it. I believe if you keep the rest of your routine simple, your skin wont become irritated, it will thank you! not over night, but you will realise after a month or two!
ETA: My skin needed a break from this after going through 2 tubes. its faded my acne scars which was the whole point of using it. Im still young so dont want to overload my skin. If I start breaking out horribly again, I would turn towards this product immediately!

For the first time in my life I developed acne prone skin at the age of 29! I spent a fortune on different cleansers and moisturisers, started with drugstore brands and then moved onto brands like dermological and karin herzog, they did help keep it under control but didn't actually help to clear it, then I stumbled across MUA alley and then across this NeoStrata product, and it has saved my life!!!!
After using it for a week just before i went to bed my skin felt the smoothest it has ever felt, after 2 weeks I started using it morning and night and after about 3-4 weeks my skin is almost clear, i do still get the occasional breakout but they clear within days.
I can't really say enough about this product, I never thought my skin would look so good again, all I can say is that if you suffer from acne you MUST try this product.

I normally don't write reviews but I have to let you know that this has been my HG for the past TEN years!!! I am 38 years old and often get mistaken for someone in my 20's all the time. My face is as smooth as a baby's bum. I wear very minimal foundation. The one time I strayed from this product (had a baby and didn't have time to take care of myself) my face broke out and looked terrible. Never again will I stray. Fantastic product!!!

This product is my HG for break outs. It keeps my skin smooth, clear and helps immensely with dark spots. I stopped using it (silly me) when I was lured away by fancier products with flowery smells and regretted it. I went back to using this in conjunction with the Anti-bacterial wash & the eye cream. My skin looks so much better, again.

This HG for me... I've used it for almost a year now and I've only good results. No breakouts anymore. Pores are more refined and fine lines are not so obvious anymore. I usually use it only at night but if I'm staying indoors the whole day I'll use it day time too. Iit does gives the face an oily sheen but it's nothing a blotting sheet can't fix.

I use the Smoothing Cream Level 3 along with the Peeling Solution to help combat my acne. It is doing wonders to help clear up my face, however my forehead does not seem to be affected by these products. I love the consistency of this cream - it is not too heavy for summer, will probably be fine for winter (I like my face creams/lotions to be good year round, as my skin is fickle and hates having to adjust, and readjust as the seasons go by). A little of this product goes a long way because it is just so smooth and spreads so easily. My face feels properly moisturized and is so smooth. My face doesn't seem to be getting oily by 10 AM, so I believe that this cream has contributed to help keep oiliness at bay. Overall a very good product, and I will continue to use it nightly (I used it day and night for 10 days straight). I will be repurchasing this once I am done this jar.

A Sheerness school is still not making enough progress towards exiting special measures following a second monitoring inspection.
St Edward's Catholic Primary, in New Road, Sheerness, was rated as inadequate by Ofsted following a visit in March 2013.
It was deemed to have serious weaknesses in the achievement of its 210 pupils, quality of teaching and leadership and management.
The first monitoring inspection since it was told to improve was carried out in July.
It found that action plans by Kent County Council and the school were not sufficient to forge a path out of special measures.
A report on a second inspection in December has found it is still not meeting expected targets, although the local authority's statement of action has now been deemed "fit for purpose".
The inspector found: "Pupils continue to underachieve because the quality of teaching has not improved since the last inspection."
The report states that learning was inadequate in just under half of the lessons seen, and "expectations are not high enough in all lessons and pupils complete too little work in the time available".
It goes on to say: "The executive head teacher has taken steps quickly to eradicate inadequate teaching but these have been too recent to tackle underperformance across the school sufficiently."
The school left a federation with St Peter's Catholic School in Sittingbourne last month.
An interim improvement board is currently responsible for the school's governance.
It now plans to convert to an academy as part of the Kent Catholic Schools Partnership.
Former head Caroline Jackson is no longer with the school.
Executive head teacher Amanda Woolcombe, who was appointed in September, will be seconded from another school for three days a week for the next 18 months.
She said: "We acknowledge the concerns raised by Ofsted and have a clear plan of action to move the school forward rapidly.
"St Edward's has undergone a change of leadership and is on track to become an
"The school continues to work closely with the diocese and Kent County Council. A meeting will be held with parents this term to discuss improvements."

Make Your Own Invitations for Different Occasions
A Beginner's Guide to Making Your Own Invitations
Making your own invitations can be fun and exciting, but also frustrating and disastrous if not planned well. So to make sure your special day avoid that same fate, we've listed some tips to help you with your invitations creation.
1. Choose a Theme: Every successful event starts with choosing the right theme. This will be the foundation of your entire party planning. Your invitations serve as your event teaser, and should convey what guests can expect from the affair. So it is important that your print materials compliment your theme. If you're doing a garden party, incorporate colors and designs that can be associated with it. You can use green, white and brown color combinations. Or go floral with your images and graphics. Just remember that your invitations should complement your theme and not the other way around.
2. Consider your Budget: Don't forget to allot a separate budget for your invitations. After choosing a theme and design, you need to look for a good printing service. You should canvas prices. Check the cost of paper, color printing and miscellaneous fees.
3. Choose the Right Colors: Like mentioned above, your invitation colors should complement your theme. But don't use too many colors for your invitations. Choose from two to three combinations to create a unified color palette. Use the color wheel as a guide.
4. Pay Attention to Details. Check and double check the details that you will place on your cards. Inspect if you have the right information like the date and venue of the event.
Creative use of typography makes invitations more attractive and memorable. You can play with typefaces and try different approaches for different occasions and events.
We can categorize typefaces into different types. Here are some typefaces you can use for invitations:
Sans Serif:
Choose a typeface which suits the mood of the occasion. For example, for weddings, script typefaces are perfect. But of course you can also try other styles like display typefaces, as long as it goes with your theme.
Display fonts can convert a classic and typical invitation into a more sophisticated and stylish one..
Mixing typefaces is also a good way to add to your invitation design. It gives your print materials a fun and whimsical feeling. These are especially effective for birthday parties. Just make sure to mix typefaces that work well together. The two fonts should have balance and harmony.
Avoid creating invitations that will become useless after the event. Create something that guests would want to keep as souvenirs. That way, you and your recipients can look back to that event with fond memories.

Barbecue Party Invitation
Bachelorette Party Invitations
Here are some information about invitation printing that you might need to know:
Paper Folds
Flat –This is the most common paper type used for different occasions.
Folded – looks more sophisticated compared to flat cards. You can separate details between the folds for a more organized reading.
Paper Sizes
Standard – These are the common sizes for invitations. Available dimensions are as follows: 3.5" x 5", 4" x 6", 4.25" x 5.5", 4.25" x 6", 5" x 7".
Folded Counterparts – Available sizes for folded invitations: 7" x 5" (folds to 3.5" x 5"), 8" x 6" (folds to 4" x 6"), 8.5" x 5.5" (folds to 4.25" x 5.5"), 8.5" x 6" (folds to 4.25" x 6") and 10" x 7" (folds to 5" x 7").
Print Guide Lines
1. Trim/ Cut Line – a line placed on your invitation layout which denotes the exact region to be cut. This also represents the final dimension/ size/ measurement of your invitations after printing.
2. Bleed – an area that extends after the cut line. The background/ color/ design of your invitations should extend up to the bleed area.
3. Safe Zone – the area where you place your text, images and other important elements to avoid getting trimmed off.
Paper Stock/ Type
1. 12 pt. Cardstock Gloss Front, Uncoated Back – this is medium weight cardstock with a glossy finish. The uncoated side is ideal for writing with pen or pencil
2. 13 pt. Cardstock, Uncoated Paper – light weight; uncoated card stock has excellent writability. But natural fibers may be visible.
3. 14 pt. Cardstock, Gloss AQ Coated – stiff, thick cardstock with a gloss finish. This is best for invitations with vibrant colors. Its aqueous coating helps the card be scratch resistant. Use permanent markers or pens with oil-based inks for writing.
4. 14 pt. Cardstock, Dull Matte Coated – stiff and thick cardstock with a matte finish. This is best for classic and elegant invitations. Also has AQ coating for more durability. Ballpoint pens and permanent markers works best for writing on this paper.
We hope this guide can help you make your own invitations without too much trouble. For more information on invitation printing call us at 1.888.888.4211.

Many of us can remember the appearances of New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, Newark Mayor Cory Booker and Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg on the Oprah Winfrey program back in September to announce Zuckerberg's donation of $100 million to Newark's school system.
Residents have been wondering where that money is going.
New Jersey first took legal control of Newark's school system in 1995. Chris Cerf, the acting state commissioner of Education, is a founding partner in a firm that consults with school districts. Cerf is on the board of the Foundation for Newark's Future, created by Mayor Booker to double the Zuckerberg donation and make the grants. The donors are venture capitalists, hedge fund managers and technology billionaires. Another one works for Goldman Sachs, which donated to Newark and also invests in for-profit education companies. Some people are accusing Booker of using $1 million of Zuckerberg's money for the consulting firm.
Professor of education law at Rutgers Paul Trachtenberg says it gives too much control of public institutions to private donors. "It de-professionalizes the schools and assumes that if you're successful as a corporate manager, you can run a school system," he said, according to NPR.
Booker said, "The focus of the grant is to fund traditional district schools, not charters."
According to Mail Online, about half of Newark's high school students are able to graduate, and half of those pass because of special testing for those who flunk the standard proficiency exam.
The Washington Examiner suggests that Newark needs proper guidelines for education reform, and the financial aid to starving children in Africa that was glamorized by celebrities in the 1980's was not what it appeared. They say the cash collected from Live-Aid and Bob Geldof was buying guns and feeding government officials.
Booker says he wants to extend the school day and shorten summer break. He also wants to hire better quality teachers, and providing better training for the teachers already in Newark.

Bush warns nuclear Iran could spur 'World War III'
U.S. president slams Ahmadinejad's call to destroy Israel; Israel calls for new UN resolution on Iran.
United States President George W. Bush on Wednesday warned that a nuclear-armed Iran could lead to a third world war because of the Islamic state's determination to destroy Israel.
"We've got a leader in Iran who has announced that he wants to destroy Israel," Bush said, referring to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
"So I've told people that, if you're interested in avoiding World War III, it seems like you ought to be interested in preventing them from having the knowledge necessary to make a nuclear weapon," Bush said.
Meanwhile, Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni on Wednesday called for a new United Nations Security Council resolution on Iran, aimed at preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons.
At a news conference in Jerusalem after meeting U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Livni said, "I do believe there is a need for another Security Council resolution. In the past, the need to get everybody on board, including Russia and China, led to some compromises on the nature of the sanctions. I hope this will not [be] the case this time."
Rice said the council is working on a new resolution, and the U.S. would follow that route if negotiations with Iran fail.
Israel considers Iran a serious threat because of repeated calls by its president for the destruction of Israel and its assumed goal of building nuclear weapons. Iran denies that its nuclear program is military in nature.
Bush's warnings of potential global conflict came one day after Russian President Vladimir Putin met with Ahmadinejad in Tehran and stated there was no evidence to support western accusations that Iran is trying to develop nuclear weapons.
Bush said he was eager to hear from Putin about his conversations with Ahmadinejad and whether the Russian leader remained determined to prevent Tehran from acquiring nuclear weapons. Bush said he wanted Putin to "clarify" his remarks.
"He understands that it's in the world's interests to make sure that Iran does not have the capacity to make a nuclear weapon," Bush said.
"If he wasn't concerned about it, then why do we have such good progress at the United Nations?" Bush said.
Putin has backed two UN Security Council resolutions imposing limited sanctions on Iran for refusing to halt uranium enrichment, but has been reluctant to come down too hard on Tehran over concerns it would undermine the diplomatic effort to keep Iran from developing atomic weapons.
Iran maintains the process is solely for producing civilian energy.
Bush urges Turkey not to launch offensive into Iraq Earlier Wednesday, Bush said that the U.S. has made clear to Turkey that it should not launch a cross-border offensive against Kurdish rebels in northern Iraq.
At a White House news conference, Bush also repeated calls for the Democratic-controlled Congress to drop plans for a resolution labeling as genocide the World War I-era killing of up to 1.5 million Armenians in the final years of the Ottoman Empire.
Noting the number of domestic bills pending before Congress, he said, "one thing Congress should not be doing is sorting out the historical record of the Ottoman Empire."
U.S.-Turkish relations have been strained by the Armenian genocide resolution and by the prospect of Turkey launching an offensive against the rebels of the Kurdistan Workers' Party. Bush spoke as Turkey's parliament voted overwhelmingly to empower its government to order troops into Iraq.
"We are making it very clear to Turkey that we don't think it is in their interest to send troops into Iraq," Bush said.
"Actually they have troops already stationed in Iraq and they've had troops stationed there for quite a while," he said. "We don't think it's in their interest to send more troops in."
Bush said he talked about Turkey with Ryan Crocker, U.S. ambassador to Iraq, and Gen. David Petraeus, the top U.S. commander in Iraq, on Wednesday. He also noted that Tariq al-Hashimi, one of Iraq's vice presidents, was in Istanbul expressing that Iraq shares Turkey's concerns about terrorist activities, but that there is a better way to deal with the issue than having turkey send additional troops into the country.
"What I'm telling you is that there's a lot of dialogue going on and that's positive," he said.
Bush used the news conference, his first since Sept. 20, to prod the Democratic-controlled Congress to approve spending, education and health issues.
He also urged Congress to approve trade deals that would strengthen U.S. allies.

Cynthia Louise "Cindy" Brown (born March 16, 1965 in Portland, Oregon) is a retired American women's basketball player, at the college, Olympic and professional levels. Brown was a member of the USA Basketball team which went on to win a gold medal at the Pan American Games in Indianapolis, Indiana in 1987,[1] and the gold medal at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul.[2] She was also a member of the gold medal winning team for the USA at the 1985 World University Games, and the 1986 World Championship team.[3][4]
College career[edit]
Brown played basketball for Long Beach State University between 1983 and 1987.[5] As a senior, she set two NCAA scoring records—the most points in a single season (974) and the most points in a single game (60).[5] The 60 point game was against San Jose State, a game Long Beach would win 149–69.[6][7] Brown was a member of the Final Four All-Tournament team in 1987, and earned first team All-America honors in 1986 and 1987.[5]
Professional career[edit]
Because the U.S. lacked a women's pro league, Brown played professionally in Europe and Japan for almost a decade.[5] She played for:
- Sidis Ancona (Italy) 1987–1988[5]
- Toshiba Yana Gi Cho (Japan) 1988–1992[5]
- Faenza Errieti Club (Italy) 1992–1994[5]
- Elizur Holon (Israel) 1994–1996[5]
She was selected by the Seattle Reign in the second round of the ABL Draft on June 19, 1996. A 6'-1" center/power forward, a tenacious rebounder and a strong inside scoring presence, Brown earned Second Team All-ABL honors following the 1996-97 season.[5] She was assigned to the site of her college success, the expansion Long Beach Stingrays on April 26, 1997. Before she ever reported to Long Beach, however, Brown signed with the rival WNBA.
The WNBA allocated Brown to the Detroit Shock prior to the 1998 season.[5] In her first season with the Shock, she finished second in the WNBA in rebounding, and was named to the 1998 All-WNBA Second Team. Brown broke the Shock franchise record at Utah on August 10 by grabbing 21 rebounds in a game against Utah (a record which Cheryl Ford tied on June 22, 2003 at Connecticut, and which Ford broke on May 22, 2004 when she snagged 22 boards at San Antonio).
On July 29, 1999, midway through her second WNBA season, Brown was traded, along with Korie Hlede, to the Utah Starzz,[8] for Wendy Palmer and Olympia Scott-Richardson. Brown played only 9 games for Utah, and retired from the WNBA following the 1999 season.

I`ve loved this perfume ever since I got a sample, and I`ve been wanting to get a bigger volume - and I`ve found exactly what I wanted here, at Fragrancex! Midnight in Paris is a wonderful classy scent that I can use anytime of day, although it might be considered an evening fragrance. Mostly I wear classic masterpieces like Shalimar, Chanel # 5, and I was happy to find out that great perfumes are made nowadays.

Comments about Midnight In Paris By Van Cleef & Arpels:
This is a fragrance marked for men and this is the only reason why I think it hits off the mark. It is a beautiful sweet and leathery fragrance. It is too feminine to be a men's fragrance. But on a woman this is a delight. It is unusual because, for a leather based fragrance it is quite sweet and not overpowering. It reminds me of a new black leather jacket which is sexy, casual and elegant all at the same time
I wear it anywhere and any time. I think it can compliment any season or the time of the day with ease. It is an excellent fragrance for the price and definitely something I would recommend others.

Comments about Midnight In Paris By Van Cleef & Arpels:
this is a classic scent typical of Van Cleef . very nice and unique. it is best worn in the vening. the scent is never overpowering even upon application. the true character of this scent is apparent after about 30 minutes or so. i tend to apply cologne sparingly so i cant speak much about sillage but i find that it has adequate staying power.

Robert Mathis' agent on Monday accused the NFL of misleading the public with its statements on the drug his client used that resulted in the Indianapolis Colts linebacker's four-game suspension and questioned the league's unwillingness to adjust the penalty.
Agent Hadley Engelhard said in an interview with ESPN Radio's "Mike & Mike" that Mathis has "never once denied" using Clomid for the sole purpose of helping to impregnate his wife but that the NFL's attack on the drug is unfounded.
"Saturday they released a statement, which the NFL never does. And even in their statement they're misleading the public in things that they said," Engelhard said. "'It's not FDA-approved for fertility in males, and it's a performance-enhancing drug prohibited by the league.' First of all, there's many drugs that are not FDA-approved for certain things and are used for other things. And the doctor in direct cross-examination even talked about that. He's been using this as a fertility drug for 20-plus years."
He said Mathis would have been fine with paying a fine, but the NFL went public against his client's wishes when it issued the suspension last week.
"If they would have said, 'Hey Robert, here's a four-game fine,' which is a lot of money, Robert would have accepted that. He just felt that the league did not take his case as a case-by-case. They looked at it and said, 'Hey, you failed the drug test, end of story, no ifs ands or buts.'
"And that's not how our system has worked in the past. They have made adjustments to fines and disciplines. And in this case there's not one shred of evidence that says contrary to what Robert did."
The NFL responded Monday on ESPN Radio, with Adolpho Birch, the league's senior vice president of labor policy and government affairs, telling "Mike & Mike" that Mathis could have avoided this whole scenario if he had just reached out to the league before taking the drug.
"I don't understand [why] there's more to the story than the player had the opportunity -- several sources that he could have contacted, all of which would have advised him not to take this substance and that the failure to do so has certain consequences," Birch said. "Those are clearly enumerated under our policy. To us there's not really much dispute here."
Engelhard agrees that Mathis' mistake was not to check with the right people, including him, before taking the drug. But he maintains that the league went overboard with its punishment, which also might cause fans to question whether Mathis cheated in order to register a career-best 19.5 sacks in 2013.
"Disciplining him at this level when the facts say totally opposite of what the league is now saying publicly is unfair to Robert and it's not the message you want to send to kids because people are saying that Robert cheated, Robert did this," the agent said.
Engelhard said Mathis' increase in sacks was due to a position change from defensive end to outside linebacker and had "nothing to do with" his use of Clomid.
"It has nothing to do with this because Robert changed positions. If anyone knows football, he's now in a position to have more sacks because he's playing that one position that he's never played before."

Attracting a high-end clientele, including city dwellers seeking a luxury North Fork getaway, most rooms at this three-story, gray-and-white inn have balconies, some with harbor views. All rooms have high-speed Internet access and flat-screen TVs. Interiors are contemporary and bright, with cherrywood furniture, leather armchairs, and light-color carpeting. Down comforters and Frette linens outfit the beds. For a really big splurge, you might consider the Terrace Suite; at 800 square feet, it's double the size of the regular rooms, and it has a 1,000-square-foot deck.

Most disrespectful and dishonest staff (Brad Born) at any hotel that I have ever dealt with. Despite this being a wedding event, disorganized and poor communication skills. Was overcharged for rooms (as were other patrons) and this was only discovered after we ourselves asked the wedding couple involved about the room price. The hotel did not reveal this error themselves and it took multiple calls/attempts in order to speak about this issue with the
staff. Very suspicious what the staff would have done with the extra amount charged had we ourselves not brought this issue up. Hotel staff on first phone booking conversation, when asked about a special event rate, denied and stated rates were as they are. Eventually found out that it had already been a month prior that a different event rate/cost was decided, which somehow the staff 'forgot'. When directly questioned, staff/Brad still without apology and just stated it was just an 'oversight'. Hotel has not provided any compensation for error and seems uninterested in correcting their mistake. If they remedy these errors, will update, but thus far, most disappointing, especially for something as important as a wedding event. UPDATE: Discussed with manager (Jacqueline Dube) today, and was told 'mistakes happen' and told owner was informed of situation but that I couldn't speak to owner because 'the owner doesn't speak to guests'. Again poor management and cannot give an apology without making excuses. A simple "sorry" would have been just fine, but instead always hearing "sorry BUT...; apologize BUT". When asked if an apology letter could be written, was told "we'll consider it".

I love all of the orange color that comes with fall. Carrots have so much potential. They work perfect with a simple spinach salad, can stuff spring rolls, and even make one delicious soup. Of course, carrots also work well as a simple snack to keep you going during the day. Carrots will often loose their crispiness in the refrigerator but if you keep the carrots in a water bath and cut off the tops when you bring the carrots home, this will ensure a little extra crispiness.
Freezing carrots is perfect if you need a little extra veggie to your winter strews or frozen shredded carrots are perfect for carrot cake or muffins. To freeze carrots, blanch for two minutes, place in a ice bath, let cool and then place in a freezer safe container. Carrots must be canned using a pressure canner or pickled to where there is a safe amount of acid (since carrots are a low-acid food.) This dill carrot recipe is a good example of a carrot recipe that can be safely canned in a hot water bath.
