By Guy CurtrightStaff Correspondent LILBURN - The Berkmar boys haven't made it to the state basketball tournament since Wesley Witherspoon was a freshman. As far as the Patriots and their star are concerned, it's time for that absence to end. "This team definitely has the talent to go to the state tournament and win some games," Witherspoon said. "We're more athletic and have guys who can make plays. "We just have to keep working. It's not where we are now. It's how we finish." Berkmar improved to 8-3 overall and 2-0 in Region 8-AAAAA with an 81-66 home victory over Brookwood on Saturday and Witherspoon was in the forefront as usual. The versatile 6-foot-8 senior scored 22 points, grabbed eight rebounds and handed out five assists in a very economical game. He took just 13 shoots from the floor, making six, but was 10-for-13 from the foul line. Once ahead by 20 points, Berkmar saw its lead shrink to nine with about five minutes remaining. But Witherspoon converted a 3-point play and the Patriots were soon back in control. With the addition of Demarion Gordon, a transfer from South Cobb, Berkmar has more weapons offensively this season. Gordon had 14 points against Brookwood, while Nick Henry scored 16 and Stavantae Rucker added 10. But the Patriots still revolve around Witherspoon, one of the top unsigned seniors in the Southeast. Because of Witherspoon's drawing power, Berkmar has made two trips to Kentucky and another to Tennessee. The Patriots lost twice in the King of the Bluegrass Classic outside Louisville, but Witherspoon impressed fans with his all-around play. "It was crazy," Witherspoon said. "People were yelling, 'Come to Kentucky! Come to Kentucky!'" Witherspoon said that the Wildcats are one of his final eight choices, but he is very much still undecided. "I'm not worrying about that now," he said. "I'm concentrating on this season." Berkmar has a key Region 8-AAAAA game with Parkview on Tuesday. But the Patriots showed, again, against Brookwood why they are one of the favorites for the region title. Nate Hamilton scored 23 points for Brookwood, but the Broncos (6-6 overall, 0-2 in 8-AAAAA), couldn't keep up with the Patriots. Brookwood scored the game's first five points, but Berkmar went on a nine-point run and led 18-11 at the end of the first quarter. The Patriots broke the game open in the second quarter, taking a 46-29 lead at halftime. Witherspoon had 17 points in the first half, going 5-for-8 from the floor and 7-for-8 at the foul line. He scored 12 of Berkmar's 28 points in the second quarter. Brookwood's Hamilton was just 2-for-10 from the floor in the first half, but went 11-for-13 at the foul line and had 15 points at intermission. The 6-foot senior guard finished 5-for-14 from the floor, with a pair of 3-pointers, but didn't go to the foul line in the second half. Rucker scored all 10 of his points in the third quarter and Berkmar led 64-46 going into the final period. Hamilton was the only double-figure scorer for Brookwood. Sean Capps and Andrew Allen each had eight points. Berkmar girls 59, Brookwood 50 Tyra Smith scored 26 points as the Berkmar girls improved to 12-1 overall and 2-0 in Region 8-AAAAA with a 59-50 victory over visiting Brookwood. The Patriot led by as many as 19 points early in the fourth quarter before the Broncos staged a comeback, pulling to within seven points on three occasions. Mariah Richardson scored 12 points and Gabby Harvey 10 for Berkmar. Katie Mallow, a freshman, had 16 points to lead Brookwood, while Courtney McLane scored 14. The Broncos, who snapped an eight-game losing streak with a win at Central Gwinnett on Friday, are 2-10 overall and 1-1 in the region. The game was tied at 10 before Berkmar went on an 11-2 run to start the second quarter. The Patriots led 25-19 at halftime. Mallow started the third quarter with a 3-pointer, but Berkmar then went on another big run and led 41-27 going into the fourth quarter. The Patriots' biggest lead was 48-29.

Despite Energy Boom, Little Change in Views of Energy Policies
Americans are becoming more aware of the domestic energy boom and the recent drop in gas prices. Yet, views of energy policies have changed only modestly since 2011.

A good htpc case
I am currently running my dell studio hybrid 140G as my htpc, but I want to move my main pc to the living room. Obviously the full tower case is not gonna work. So looking for a htpc case, that can take an ATX mobo and PSU, and can fit in a GTX 470,3 hard drives and bluray burner.
Re: A good htpc case
Silverstone but does the 470 go beyond the mobo in length?
Re: A good htpc case
i think it does.
Re: A good htpc case
Yeah tight fit dude. This is why I got the 4670 it's short and needs no additional power. There is cases out there but you will need some room.
Re: A good htpc case
I love it when you talk dirty mullet.
Re: A good htpc case

A close but not so close shove of an asteroid with our planet Earth is bound to happen on February 15. This asteroid, which is thought to be more than the size of football field will make quite a close approach towards earth.
Asteroid 2012 DA14 is one of the 50,000 cosmic existences of this sort. The asteroid would be traveling at 4.8 miles per second. It will go faster as it travels from the southern evening sky to the northern morning sky as it would move towards the Earth.
The scientists have said that this asteroid will be the closest of all the trysts that the cosmic existences must have come across. The astronomer Dave Reneke from Australasian Science Magazine said that the objects like these would come close to the earth at least once in 30 years.
Scientists would be using radar to observe DA14. The composition and structure of the asteroid would be studied by them. Along with this, they are planning to comprehend the evolution of the solar system. There is a speculation that the asteroid may contain water. That would be only revealed after studying the composition of the rock.
Scientists have denied any harms pertaining to the little closeness of Earth with this asteroid.

Rachelle Wright's curator insight, May 12, 7:12 PM
I was surprised when I found this article. It was an interesting read. It is nice to read that there are some benefits to social media. This article was a breathe of fresh air. One benefit is web engagement. Students are developing Internet presence. They are learning how to interact with others online using different functions as well. Another benefit is knowledge. Social media allows students to send and receive information daily. Students are able to analyze, retain and share information more easily. The third benefits is connections. You can connect and engage with others on the Web without ever meeting them. You can share with anyone in the world. The last benefit is social media marketing. Social media allows young workers to become great marketers. Students are filling businesses social media marketing strategies. Having social media can help students bring their kills to their jobs. About 31 minutes on average is the amount of time students spend on social media daily. I figured the average was higher. I never thought about these types of benefits before. These are helpful benefits for the future. Social media is not all bad.

Savvy broadcast and media companies are putting more emphasis on social networks to keep the public informed. Recent studies have shown that the "younger generation" will keep up with the news and public events if they are presented well on social media. Even print outlets such as newspapers and magazines are publishing digital editions to appeal to younger audiences equipped with social media tools. The communications future has arrived!

Great teaching is not about technology-it's about being a learner, who takes risks!
Kim Flintoff's curator insight, April 17, 10:18 PM
The lesson here for higher ed is about developing familiarity with new technologies. The possibilities for AR across all disciplines are immense, but often students (and teachers) find it difficult to initially connect with a use that allows them to start to conceive of how it can be used. Something as ubiquitous as colouring is used in many contexts (think of the Anatomy colouring book used by many health practitioners to learn about systems and connections).
RebeccaMoore's curator insight, April 8, 2:21 PM
This is an article to come back to at the beginning of each school year. These factors (temperature, lighting, color, size of the room) may not always be under the teacher's control, but working to include student work, the proper amount of wall space, etc., could be beneficial for student achievement.

Rural America Solutions Group Co-Chairs Call on Obama Officials to Deliver Economic Relief to La Crosse
Tamara Hinton (202) 225-0184
WASHINGTON – Tomorrow, Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood and Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack will travel to La Crosse, Wisconsin as part of the Administration's rural America listening tour. Co-Chairs of the Rural America Solutions Group Frank Lucas (R-OK), Sam Graves (R-MO), and Doc Hastings (R-WA), released the following statement regarding tomorrow's event:
"Unemployment in Wisconsin has almost doubled in the past year and a half – and rural residents of the Badger state need real help – not more rhetoric. Unfortunately, when Obama Administration officials visit La Crosse tomorrow, they probably won't explain the facts surrounding the President's National Energy Tax and government-run healthcare plan. The truth is that these proposals are expected to devastate rural America by spiking energy bills, increasing unemployment and shutting down small businesses.
"During the campaign, President Obama pledged to hold a bipartisan rural summit and take action on a rural agenda in his first 100 days. But unfortunately, his promise turned out to just be empty campaign rhetoric. Republicans on the Rural America Solutions Group will continue to call upon the Administration and Democrats in Congress to take action to help rural Americans in La Crosse, and all across the country, who are struggling during these difficult economic times."
By the Numbers – What The Democrats' National Energy Tax Means to Wisconsin:
8.9%: Wisconsin currently faces an 8.9% unemployment rate, almost double the unemployment rate at the start of the recession in December 2007. (Source: Bureau of Labor Statistics) Wisconsin residents cannot afford to see their electricity and gas prices spike as a result of the Democrats' National Energy Tax.
63.1%: Wisconsin residents receive 63.1% of their electricity from coal. (Source: American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity) This means that families and businesses electricity costs would soar under the Democrats' National Energy Tax, which makes the coal industry pay more for emitting carbon.
$206 million: Electricity costs in Wisconsin will increase by $206 million as a result of the Democrats' National Energy Tax. (Source: National Mining Association)
78,000: There are 78,000 farms in Wisconsin (Source: U.S. Department of Agriculture). Farmers will pay more for fuel, electricity, fertilizer, and chemicals under the Democrats' National Energy Tax.
25%: Americans in rural areas, like La Crosse, travel 25% more than residents in rural areas (Source: U.S. Federal Highway data), meaning rural residents would disproportionately suffer from the Democrats' National Energy Tax.
439,000: Wisconsin has over 439,000 small businesses that would suffer as a result of increased electricity costs due to the Democrats' National Energy Tax. (Source: Small Business Administration 2008 Wisconsin Profile)
$407 million: Wisconsin's 3rd Congressional District in 2012 will face a $407 million Gross State Product loss as a result of the Democrats' National Energy Tax. (Source: Heritage Foundation)
$530 million: Wisconsin's 3rd Congressional District in 2012 will face a $530 million Personal Income Loss as a result of the Democrats' National Energy Tax. (Source: Heritage Foundation)
$1 billion: Wisconsin will incur more than a $1 billion increase in fuel costs in 2012 as a result of the Democrats' National Energy Tax. (Source: American Petroleum Institute)

I've bought a used 2003 XT last winter. Unfortunately, it's spent more time broken than running. I've had ongoing problems with the starter (both the motor and the starter clutch pins). It's dead right now... I have a new starter motor on order and the kickstart kit has already arrived, just waiting for a chance to install it.
When it was working, though, it's been a great bike. I usually see low-to-mid-60s mpg on the commute, more when dualsporting. I've taken it offroad a few times, and hung with bigger bikes just fine.
I've replaced the handlebars and installed a GPS 5 on them, with new grips, barkbusters and handguards. I have a spare set of wheels (one set for Distanzias, one set for knobs). I haven't jetted it, because it is primarily my around-town bike (I have a DRZ400 for the tough stuff) and I don't want to sacrifice the fuel economy. I've done the
upgrade, too. Adds 5mph to the top end, dontcha know.

We're going to be migrating a server running 32 bit Windows 2008 Standard, and we would like to migrate it to 64 bit. Is this possible using the same key?
Posted 30 April 2012 - 02:43 PM
The product key should not be architecture specific. The only problem I can imagine you'd have is if you are not doing an in-place migration, one of your servers won't be activated.

Port St. Lucie woman needs help finding homes for cats
PORT ST. LUCIE — They've been isolated, looking at others through cages.
"The ones that we've worked with here have just been grateful to have room to stretch their legs and be around people," Dr. Jennifer DiTrapani said.
DiTrapani, of Morningside Animal Hospital in Port St. Lucie, spoke of dozens of cats kept at a Southwest College Park Road home that she and others are nursing back to health.
"They all have fleas. Many of them have parasites. Many of them have hair loss. Some of them have eye problems," DiTrapani said.
Most of the felines have upper respiratory infections and all of them were unvaccinated. Many of them are not spayed or neutered, she said.
" A lot of these cats just came off the street or were feral cats," DiTrapani said.
Master Sgt. Frank Sabol, Port St. Lucie police spokesman, said officials went to the home where the cats were housed in late July after a complaint from a neighbor. More than 40 cats were found, according to Sabol.
A woman and her husband were helping care for dozens of felines and trying to find them homes. The woman's husband died shortly before the complaint came in. The woman was not arrested, Sabol said.
Animal control officials are making efforts to get the woman down to five cats — the maximum allowed in a city residence — while others, including DiTrapani, are working to treat the remaining kitties and find them homes.
DiTrapani said some cats are being housed at her facility, while others are at Dogs and Cats Forever and the rest remain with the woman on Southwest College Park Road.
"We have adopted out six cats so far, and currently have 13 in the hospital either ready for adoption or waiting to be up to date on vaccines, surgery, etc.," DiTrapani wrote in an email. "There are more in the home in need, so when we adopt one out we go back and get another."
DiTrapani said veterinarians in Stuart and Vero Beach are helping with spay and neuter procedures, and vaccinations and flea treatments also have been donated.
"We're trying to get them just kind of ready to go into a home," DiTrapani said. "Examined, upper respiratory infections gone."
DiTrapani said some of the cats are "special needs" and may not do well around other kitties.
"We are assessing their personalities and when somebody comes, we're able to tell them here's what this cats needs, might take a little time to acclimate," DiTrapani said. "They generally were being neglected, and so it's tough for them."
Those interested in the cats can visit Morningside Animal Hospital at 1626 S.E. Port St. Lucie Blvd. in Port St. Lucie, or call (772) 337-0800.

It is unlikely that Carlos Marmol will be on a team other then the Cubs when Opening Day comes around but the team still wants to trade their closer. Marmol, 30, is in the final year of his contract and set to make $9.8 million. The Cubs told Marmols agent to expect a trade. This is not news as the team was willing to move Marmol all of last season but never found any takers. He had 20 saves in 23 chances with a 3.42 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 72 strikeouts in 55 1/3 innings last season. Control has always been an issue, as Marmol walked 45 guys, giving him a horrible rate of 7.3 per nine innings.

I have a chain of method calls where A calls B that calls C that calls D. A and D have @Transactional annotation. but B and C doesn't. what is the scope of transaction boundaries in this case. are B and C part of the transaction at all?
By default A, B, C & D work in the same transaction. The default propagation level of a transaction is TX_REQUIRED meaning a new transaction is started if one does not exist (A starts one, B, C, D participates).
D could start a new transaction by setting its propagation level to TX_REQUIRES_NEW (if your environment supports it). In that scenario, when D is done the suspended transaction is resumed. Committing D does not affect the outcome of transaction A. Rollbacking A will not rollback D (already committed) as they are separate transactions.
Also, a lot of developers forgets that only public method may be marked @Transactional as Spring uses proxies to manage the transactions (private/protected methods are called on "this" - thus the proxy has no chance to do its magic). This does not necessiraly hold true if you are using byte code injection instead of proxies.
If you wish to learn more about transaction design patterns, I strongly suggest the following ebook (free! - registration required): http://www.infoq.com/minibooks/JTDS. It is a very straightforward read.
That depends on the propagation parameter of the
Per default, everything that happens within A is part of one single transaction - that includes all methods called directly and indirectly by it.
Other propagation mode would allow D to suspend the current transaction and start its own, execute in a nested transaction, or throw an exception because it's not meant to be used within an existing transaction.
Independent of what happens:
if this question even comes up, you probably have serious design problems.
in 95% of cases, Transaction demarcation should take place at the entry point of your application, that is in a service method that calls all the other code internally.
The only valid case I can think of where one
If you call B and C from a @Transactional A, they will still be in a transaction.
Have a look at transaction propagation in spring docs.

According to several published reports, over 100 passengers on board Flight 17 were doctors and AIDS researchers. One local doctor, who will be headed to that summit, says his colleague is a giant in AIDS research and is also among those killed.
Dr. William Valenti said, "He will be sorely missed, a major figure to conquer this disease."
Dr. William Valenti, of the University of Rochester, is talking about his friend and colleague, Joep Lange. He worked with him for over 30 years, trying to find a cure for HIV and AIDS. Lange was among more than 100 scientists and campaigners flying to the International Aids Conference on board Flight MH 17.
Dr. Valenti said, "The thing about Joep Lange that really matter is his global impact on HIV. One of the important things he did was he helped us understand how to prevent mother-baby transmission of HIV."
Lange, a native of the Netherlands, was a leader in the field in the fight against AIDS. He was President of the International Aids Society from 2002 to 2004. Valenti says if it weren't for him, irradiating AIDS wouldn't even be a part of the conversation.
Dr. Valenti said, "To realize that somebody who still had a lot of time left to make an impact or continue his impact wasn't going to be able to do that and that is just a tremendous loss. The legacy will go on, but it's not like having him there."
Joep Lange's wife, also an AIDS researcher, was among the 298 killed on Malaysian Airline Flight 17.

The CFA Institute prides itself on promoting a culture of higher standards among those who work in the investment industry. The capital markets require the underpinning of a financial system built on trust, and the CFA Institute sets a higher bar of ethical behavior to support market integrity and sustainability.
Although the topic of Ethical and Professional Standards only accounts for 15 percent of the weight on the exam, it's extremely important that you pass. Here's why, if your overall score is right on the bubble for the minimum level to pass, then you will need a score above 70 percent in the ethics section in order to pass the exam.
You MUST first know the Standards of Professional Conduct:
I. Professionalism
II. Integrity of Capital Markets
III. Duties to Clients
IV. Duties to Employers
V. Investment Analysis, Recommendations, and Action
VI. Conflicts of Interest
VII. Responsibilities as a CFA Institute Member or CFA Candidate
Fully understanding the aforementioned Standards will help provide a better understanding of the broader ethics-related issues. It's very important that you work through the examples provided in the text, since they serve as an excellent proxy for what to expect on the exam.
I started my preparation with ethics mostly as a confidence builder, but also looked at the material a couple of times when I needed a break from more demanding sections.
This kept it fresh enough so that I didn't need any additional time for this topic during those last few weeks before the exam. Given its importance, make sure that you fully understand this material, and score well on the practice questions. This section will easily trip up candidates that treat this topic casually.
The test questions are often somewhat trickier then many expect, so make sure to read each question carefully. Although controversial, consider looking at these questions again if you have extra time on exam day.
Stay positive and keep your eyes on the prize.

you doing it wrong,
after you press "WinKey" you can immediately press keyboard's keys for search, as added bonus: you can still view your other works as it wont be obscured by screen full of tiles.
I said I hated the Start menu (ala 7 and earlier) - I have zero issues with the StartScreen. The searchability of said screen is something I pointed out way back in the Windows 8 Developer Preview.
The reason I despise the return of the Start MENU is at this point all it does is screw over third-party developers (not alone Stardock) - whether it is any more usable than said third-party utilities I could care less about, for reasons i explained.

With more than one-third of U.S. children considered overweight or obese, the 2010 Child Nutrition Reauthorization Act aims to improve nutrition and focuses on reducing childhood obesity. The act expands access to drinking water in schools, particularly during meal times, among other initiatives.
Researchers reviewed national, state, and child care center water regulations and observed water availability and teacher behaviors during lunch and physical activity in 40 child care centers in Connecticut. They found that many centers were in violation of water-promoting policies. While water was available in most classrooms (84%), it had to be requested from an adult in over half of those classrooms. The researchers also found that water was available during only one-third of physical activity periods observed and verbal prompts from staff for children to drink water were few.
"The lack of water availability during a meal diminishes its importance as a viable beverage choice for young children and highlights a missed opportunity for centers to normalize consumption of noncaloric beverage," says Kathryn E. Henderson, PhD, Director of School and Community Initiatives at the Rudd Center. "With child care settings' strong influence on mealtime behaviors, policy guidelines should continue to explicitly mention that water may be served with meals. This is a cost-neutral policy suggestion that reinforces low-calorie hydration to children as they form their dietary habits, but it does not encroach on milk consumption."
The researchers assert that policy change is one approach for improving healthy beverage practices in child care and that support is needed to help centers meet existing water policies and new water requirements included in the 2010 Child Nutrition Reauthorization Act.'/>"/>

Onion Dill Bread
|Lukewarm water
|1 1⁄4 Cup (20 tbs)
|1 Teaspoon
|Chopped dill weed
|1 Tablespoon (Fresh)
|Powdered saffron
|1 Pinch (Large Pinch)
|Active dry yeast
|1 Tablespoon (1 Package)
|Sifted all purpose flour
|4 Cup (64 tbs)
|Olive oil
|1⁄8 Cup (2 tbs)
|1 , chopped fine
|Green pepper
|1⁄4 , chopped fine
|1 1⁄2 Tablespoon
In a large metal bowl, combine the lukewarm water, salt, dillweed, saffron, and the yeast (crumbling it until well dissolved).
Keep the metal bowl lukewarm to keep the yeast active.
Sift the flour into a large bowl and make a well in the center.
Pour the yeast mixture into the well and stir, then knead the dough with your hands for about 10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Pour the olive oil over the dough and knead (about 5 minutes) until it is no longer sticky.
Put the dough in a large bowl, cover with a towel, and set in a warm place until the dough doubles in size.
When the rising time is about over, presoak a clay pot, top and bottom, in water for 10 minutes.
Saute the onion and green pepper in the butter until tender but not browned, then remove the pan from the heat to cool.
While it is cooling, roll the dough into an oblong 1/4 inch thick.
Sprinkle the onion and green pepper mixture over the dough and fold in half lengthwise.
Cut dough into three long strips and braid into a loaf.
Place a piece of aluminum foil in the bottom of the presoaked pot.
Place the braided loaf in the pot, cover with lid, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size (about 60 minutes).
Cover the pot and place it in a cold oven.
Set the oven temperature at 450 degrees.
Bake for 45 minutes, then remove the pot from the oven and check bread for doneness.
Return the pot to the oven, uncovered, and brown for additional 15 minutes. (Bread will be done when a finger thump on the loafs surface sounds hollow.)
Allow the bread to cool for 15 to 20 minutes before serving.

An application being run from a file server terminates with an access violation for no apparent reason.
The redirector is sending a LogoffAndX SMB to terminate a virtual circuit to a file server while there is still at least one active TreeConnect to the server. As a result any existing files that are being held open by the workstation on the server become invalid. If an application is being run on the workstation which uses DLLs held on the file server, it can no longer access the DLLs it requires and will probably cause an Access Violation.

Despite asking me all about weight and riding style, which was futile and pointless. It took several revalves to get it anywhere near right, and it still sucks balls. No bottom out valving. Fuck me, even the standard Sachs works better as far as bottom out goes.
It has the heaviest rear spring on the Ohlins list, 22kg/mm. It still sucks hairy dogs balls.
It was set up by the same guy who has done 3 dirt bikes for me and they've all been perfect. He went to Le Mans to do suspension work for the last 24 hour. He knows what he's doing.
I stopped short of spending money on replacing the internals of the front end. Because I had decided to replace the bike. By the time I buy rims and front cartridges etc I'd have paid enough to upgrade the suspension that I could have just bought an Enduro bike and kept the BMW for road riding.
I know the salesman at the KTM store, my son used to work there. I was offered $1500 discount on a new 990 without asking.
If they offer me $10k for the Austro-Bavarian hunk of junk they can have it. I'll throw in all the spares I have for free.
Dont hold back, tell us what you really think.
I do get what you are saying as there have definitely been times I have been frustrated with the F800. I have also certainly thrown enough money at mine. But no matter what color Kool-aid you end up drinking, I just came to the conclusion that weight is weight and you can only get so much out of a 450 plus pound bike. I finally realized that for harder dirt riding, I just enjoy my smaller bike a lot more. I'm not dismissing the KTM thing, they are definitely cool bikes and I occasionally lust after one. I just dont think that any of the big adventure bikes are really going to kick ass when the going gets tough. (I'll probably get flamed for saying that
On the other hand, with my current ridiculously expensive Bavarian whore, moderate dirt and touring is just fine. Good luck in your quest. I suspect the KTM will have you cursing also. Perhaps just about different things.

In Greek mythology, the Androktasiai (Ancient Greek: Ἀνδροκτασίαι; singular: Androktasia) were the female personifications of manslaughter.
Hesiod in Theogony names their mother as Eris and their siblings as Lethe ("forgetfulness"), Ponos ("toil"), Limos ("starvation"), the Algea ("pains"), the Hysminai ("fightings"), the Makhai ("battles"), the Phonoi ("murders"), the Neikea ("quarrels"), the Pseudologoi ("lies"), the Amphilogiai ("disputes"), Dysnomia ("lawlessness"), Atë ("ruin"), and Horkos ("oath").[1]

Life is harder when you complicate the simple things. Enjoy what you have & live your life" :)
How do you describe yourself? I think that's more displayed through action than words, but I will say- I'm sweet and caring. I have a great sense of humor and I laugh a lot. I tend to see the positive side of things and avoid dwelling on the negative. I enjoy life and all it has to offer. I love hanging with my family and friends, and it doesn't really matter what we do.. It's who you're with. I love spending time outdoors whether it be running, swimming, biking, or visiting the beach. I'm pretty much down for whatever. I love good food and wine. I enjoy working out, especially spinning. My favorite sport to watch is football. I am a Philadelphia sports fan. Fall makes me think of football, pumpkin spice lattes, & long sleeve shirts with shorts and flip flops. I'm currently on a co-ed soccer team. I'm very easy going, and I love new opportunities and experiences. Just recently returned from following my heart on a trip to Africa to help those less fortunate. They taught me so much about living simply, and "Hakuna Matata". For people who have "nothing", they have everything. I was fortunate to visit such a loving place where the family at the village I was staying with treated us like their own right from the start. I went with 2 other nurses who are friends of mine..hands down, it was the best experience of my life and I'm truly grateful for that. I love to travel, and I have many places I want to see throughout my life. I'm also down for random, spontaneous trips :) I'm open to meeting new people, clearly, or I wouldn't be on here. I'm very friendly and I have a personality that gets along with most. I hope I get the opportunity to meet someone where it all just clicks. We shall see :) Generally speaking of what I want in someone- I feel that in an ideal relationship, two people come together on shared values and beliefs. And I see that person becoming a best friend and the person I want to share my life with. With that said, I'm currently looking to meet new people, date, and see where things go. Anything else you want to know, just ask :)

Hostelworld "meet the world" by Lucky Generals
Rating: 5.0
By Staff,, campaignlive.co.uk, Friday, 13 August 2004 11:00AM
In June, Harveys instructed the AAR to put its media and creative accounts, held by Rathbone Media and Soul respectively, into play and has seen pitches from a number of top-ten media agencies.
However, some agencies have become concerned that Harveys has not got credit insurance, and are unwilling to take on the risk of an uninsured client.
Credit insurance was introduced as a prerequisite for clients from most large agencies, following the collapse of uninsured dotcom companies, which exposed them to debt.
The credit insurance acts as a guarantee to both the media owners and the agencies that they will get paid for media space that has been booked by advertisers.
Because agencies book media space some weeks in advance of transmission or publication and pay for the space at the end of each calendar month, they are forced to shoulder large overheads that can only be reclaimed once the client is invoiced.
However, if the client is unable to pay the invoice, if for example it encounters financial difficulties, then the credit insurance will cover the outstanding media debt rather than the agency that booked it.
"Harveys can't currently get credit insurance and until it does then none of the big agencies will touch it," one agency chief said.
Harveys did not return calls.

Editorial endorsement: Florida House District 84, Democratic primary
Strong candidates vying for Democratic nomination to the new St. Lucie County seat
INCUMBENT: None
TERM: Two years
Adam Fetterman, 41, Fort Pierce
Larry Lee, 58, Port St. Lucie
Kevin Stinnette, 57, Fort Pierce
KEY ISSUES: Economy and jobs, environment, public education, insurance reform, bipartisanship,
WHY WE ENDORSED: Few races this year have such a quality slate of candidates. Each possesses unique talents and proven leadership to benefit the citizens of St. Lucie County in this new district.
The winner will face Republican Michelle Miller, who is unopposed in her party, in November.
Fetterman is the most politically experienced. General counsel for St. Lucie County Sheriff Ken Mascara, Fetterman has previously served in the state House, ably representing his district in the GOP-controlled Legislature. His passionate advocacy for legal and moral justice is exceptional.
Fetterman said, "Our county, community and state are in dire need of real leadership, someone willing to go to Tallahassee and stand up for the working families in our state who don't enjoy the luxury of a high-priced lobbyist to argue their case. I want to fight for our children to get the world-class education they deserve, and stop putting the blame for any failures of our education system on our hardworking teachers. I want to ensure that every person who wants to work has a job in a field that has a future, with an opportunity to earn a good income that will enable them to taste and enjoy the American dream."
Lee, an insurance agent, entrepreneur, and a partner and talk show host for radio stations in St. Lucie County, is one of the area's most significant leaders in uniting people and communities in constructive dialogue and activities. His insurance background could be key in helping the state deal with the massive funding problems associated with Citizens insurance.
Lee said, "For the past 32 years, I have devoted a major part of my life to making St. Lucie County a better place to live for all people. I feel that I have demonstrated an ability to bring people together to create solutions to community problems and to inspire a sense of community and togetherness. I also feel that my background as a local businessman, my civic involvement in the community, and my willingness to listen to contrary points of view will be an asset in a Legislature that at times is polarized."
Stinnette is a public schoolteacher specializing in marine science and was the region's first Indian Riverkeeper. His advocacy for public education and his knowledge and dedication to protecting the environment are powerful attributes.
Stinnette said, "I feel I can bring jobs to our county. I will be a voice for teachers whose work is being affected without adequate involvement from people who have been in the classroom. I will be a voice for those children in St. Lucie classrooms who have the quality of their education influenced by politics in Tallahassee. I will also be a voice for the anglers, boaters and my neighbors who live on the Indian River Lagoon and who see their quality of life and property values diminished without representation."
WHY WE DIDN'T ENDORSE: Stinnette does not appear to have as much knowledge of the varied issues facing the state as his opponents. Fetterman did a solid job in the House previously. He is a proven politician and a leader. But, Lee is unique, less political than Fetterman, who has a track record of crossing lines of race and politics to create consensus achievements. It's a rare talent St. Lucie County Democrats should take advantage of.WE RECOMMEND LARRY LEE.

Silent Hill 3
Lost Memories DVD FAQ by The Hellbound Heart
Version: 2.00 | Updated: 12/24/03 | Printable Version
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lost Memories "THE ART & MUSIC OF SILENT HILL" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copyright 2003 Duncan Bunce Version 1.00 ---------------------------- ---------------------------------- INTRODUCTION ---------------------------------- Welcome to a brief FAQ regarding the sought after Silent Hill DVD titled 'Lost Memories - The Art & Music of Silent Hill'. It has come to my attention that many questions have been asked regarding what this dvd actually is and what it consists of. I have received many emails regarding this, so in response (and to finally give everyone who wants to know an answer!), I have created this FAQ. Let's see what the DVD offers us Silent Hill fans....... Q) What region is the DVD? A) The DVD is region 2. It originates from Japan, but can also work in region 2 countries such as the UK, rest of Europe etc. Otherwise, you are going to have to buy some sort of device to allow you to play it in a non-region 2 country or get a chipped dvd player. If you're from the USA, sorry guys, you're region 1, but my advice just before still applies. Q) Is it a double disc presentation? A) No, just the one disc. Q) Is it all in Japanese? A) No, the title menus are all in English and navigation is easy. Even the trailers are all in English as you would expect to see them in the European game. No language barriers here folks. ---------------------------------------- What's on the DVD? ---------------------------------------- Here we go........ The DVD main title menu is split into the following section choices: Sound Trailers Pictures Creatures Production Material Art of Silent Hill Bonus (the cool background of the main menu if you're wondering, is a Otherworld picture of a carousel horse from Silent Hill 3). I'll deal section by section contents now..... ----------------------------------------- Sound ----------------------------------------- A) Silent Hill Original Soundtrack Tracks: Silent Hill All The Wait Until Death Over Devil's Lyric Rising Sun For All Follow The Leader Claw Finger Hear Nothing Children Kill Killed by Death Don't Cry The Bitter Season Moonchild Never Again Fear of the Dark Half Day Heaven Give Me Say Far I'll Kill You My Justice For You Devil's Lyric 2 Dead End Ain't Gonna Rain Nothing Else Alive Never Again Die Never End, Never End, Never End Down Time Kill Angels Only You Not Tomorrow 1 Not Tomorrow 2 My Heaven Tears Of.... Killing Time She Silent Hill (Other Side) B) Silent Hill 2 Original Soundtrack Theme of Laura White Noiz Forest A World of Madness Ordinary Vanity Promise (Reprise) Ahes and Ghost Null Moon Heaven's Night Alone In The Town The Darkness That Lurks In Our Mind Angel's Thanatos The Day of Night Block Mind Magdalene Fermata In Mistic Air Prisonic Fairytale Love Psalm Silent Heaven Noone Love You The Reverse Will Laura Plays The Piano Terror In The Depths Of The Fog True Betrayal Black Fairy Theme Of Laura (Reprise) Overdose Delusion Pianissimo Epilogue Promise C) Silent Hill 3 Original Soundtrack Lost Carol You're Not Here Float Up From Dream End Of Small Sanctuary Breeze - In Monochrome Night Sickness Unto Foolish Death Clockwork Little Happiness Please Love Me...Once More A Stray Child Innocent Moon Maternal Heart Letter - From The Lost Days Dance With Night Wind Never Forgive Me Never Forget You Prayer Walk On Vanity Ruins I Want Love Heads No.2 Memory Of The Waters Rain Of Blass Petals Flower Crown Of Poppy Sun Uneternal Sleep Hometown -------------------------------------- Trailers -------------------------------------- A) 4 Trailers from Silent Hill available: OPENING (the cool intro from the game, which is like a montage of the game and end with Harry crashing the Jeep. Has the now famous SH music.) E3 1998 (early showing of the game. Another montage, like a rolling demo of the game with spliced ingame footage and fmv. Shows the demon children which didn't make it into the final game, and a couple of seconds scene showing Cybil's motorcycle crashing over an embankment without her on it. Very cool video,and has some music running over the top which never made it into the game and sounds just awesome. Silent Hill trademark insignia not present). TGS 1998 AUTUMN (now has the SH music we all know and love, another montage of the game which is pretty close to the game's actual intro fmv. Mainly all fmv,with a few seconds of ingame stuff near the end. Demon children now gone. Insignia of title now shown). UFO END (shows the 'humourous' ending from the game which involved aliens. It's in the old 1950's style, comic book style with Japanese subtitles, but still English speaking. Bizarre retro alien theme tune as well a scredits roll Star Wars style). B) 5 Trailers from Silent Hill 2 available: OPENING (one of the best SH & SH2 FMV's in the series, this is the intro to the game, a montage of movie clips with the classic 'Theme of Laura'. Opens with the prison cell scene between Maria and James as he meets her again, then the music kicks in. Shows certain scenes not in the game, like Laura kicking Eddie who is resting beside a van, and James carrying the lifeless corpse of Maria through the shadowy prison. Merges Mary/Maria clips, sets the story and haunting ambience of SH2, introduces all the characters. Basically awesome 'best of' which end with Maria propositioning James in the prison). TGS 2000 AUTUMN (Japense subtitles break up the scenes. Opens on the misty lake and with lone and forlorn James rowing across in a boat. SH2 insignia opens. There's no music played, errie silence, like a humming. Shows James's first encounter with a monster and the radio. Then 'Theme of Laura' gently begins as James examines himself in the mirror at the roadside restroom. Broken up with clips of Pyramid Head molesting other demon monsters. Ends with a melancholy and haunting pan of the empty decaying restroom as credits come up, theme stops). TGS 2001 SPRING (Scene with Laura on the wall, James asking who she is. Theme of Laura (Reprise) begins which is more gentle in ambience, we see Mary talk about the town, Angela saying to James "Lost?", first meeting with Maria and then James asks "Is it dangerous?'. Music stops, monstrous screeching of Pyramid Head starts, dragging his BIG SWORD, metal scraping. We get a few of these disturbing flashes of monsters James will come across, a a silhouette scene of Pyramid Head molesting monsters in the Hotel [not in game]. Other music begins, and another montage of clips of James's experiences start and proper 'Theme of Laura' song kicks in, words of "she was waiting for you" flash on screen at the same time, later picture goes into black and white, last scene is Pyramid Head molestation scene and screen turns white, Laura says the Lord's Prayer). E3 2001 (another montage of clips, mainly movie once again. Nice trailer showing off the movement of the monsters in game and the genral musteries of the story). UFO END (the 'humourous' ending of the game. Aliens land once again, except Harry from the first game is with them. They zap James with their laser guns and take him away.) C) Six Trailers from Silent Hill 3 available: OPENING E3 2002 TGS 2002 AUTUMN GAMERS DAY E3 2003 YOU'RE NOT HERE (excellent video to the Melissa Williams SH OST classic. Has the main character of SH3 Heather, lip sync the vocals to the song as she walk around a white background, with the occassional movie clip from the game breaking it up). ------------------------------------------------ Pictures ------------------------------------------------ A) There are 20 pictures to choose from for Silent Hill B) There are 20 pictures to choose from for Silent Hill 2 C) There are 26 pictures to choose from for Silent Hill 3 ------------------------------------------------ Creatures ------------------------------------------------ A) There are 19 pictures to choose from for Silent Hill B) There are 20 pictures to choose from for Silent Hill 2 C) There are 20 pictures to choose from for Silent Hill 3 ------------------------------------------------ Production Material ------------------------------------------------ A) There are 11 pictures to choose from for Silent Hill B) There are 16 pictures to choose from for Silent Hill 2 C) There are 26 pictures to choose from for Silent Hill 3 ------------------------------------ Contact ------------------------------------ firstname.lastname@example.com or firstname.lastname@example.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The remaining part for this guide will detail as much as possible what pictures are available for the relevant sections. It will then finish the remaining two sections on the DVD (the weird and cool videos). Then I'll do a brief review of the DVD and where you can get it. I'll do some before Xmas, but it will probably be finished a little after. BYE

The Almighty Dollar and the Invention of America

From the author of Lords of the Horizons, the
fascinating story of a new kind of money for a
new world
Money has always been at the heart of the American experience. Paper money, invented in Boston in 1698, was a classic of American ingenuity-and American disregard for authority and tradition. With the wry and admiring eye of a modern Tocqueville, Jason Goodwin has written a biography of the dollar, giving us the story of its astonishing career through the wilds of American history.
Greenback looks at the dollar over the years as a form of art, a kind of advertising, a reflection of American attitudes, and a builder of empires. Goodwin shows us how the dollar rolled out the frontier and peopled the Plains; how it erected the great cities; how it expressed the urges of democracy and opportunity. And, above all, Goodwin introduces us to the people who championed-or ambushed-the dollar over the years: presidents, artists, pioneers, and frontiersmen; bankers, shady and upright; safecrackers, crooks, and dreamers of every stripe. It's a vast and colorful cast of characters, who all agreed on one thing: getting the money right was the key to unlocking liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Greenback delves into folklore and the development of printing, investigates wildcats and counterfeiters, explains why a buck is a buck and how Dixie got its name. Like Goodwin's Lords of the Horizons, another story of empire, Greenback brings together an array of quirky detail and surprising-often hilarious-anecdote to tell the story of America through its best-beloved product.
Jason Goodwin's previous titles include Lords of the Horizons, On Foot to the Golden Horn, and A Time for Tea. He lives in England.

How to make money with CPA marketing
Many of the people might have heard about CPA (Cost Per Action) or PPA (Pay Per Action). But, they are not aware of the exact strategies to make money with CPA marketing. From my perspective apart from Adsense and other advertising options one should also try CPA marketing. In the recent times, it has become a popular source for many affiliate marketers and bloggers. The reason is quite simple ; Unlike other campaigns users don't need to buy anything as the offers are absolutely free.
How does CPA marketing work
Being a CPA marketer you get paid when a potential user clicks your affiliate link and completes an action. The action could be anything like visiting a website, subscribing to a newsletter, filling a form, downloading a free software or playing a game. CPA marketers could easily make money in no time as users love 'free' stuff. There are no restrictions with the platform you are promoting. One could simply start with Blogger blog or WordPress blog but getting approval from CPA networks is not an easy thing. There are tens of hundreds of CPA networks but one should carefully choose the reputed one. CPA marketers must check the niche, reputation of the network, type of the campaigns and payout before getting started.
CPA networks manually review each application and they will not approve if they aren't satisfied with the applicant details. Generally they prefer affiliates with prior experience. If one hasn't any, they would like to hear about long-term goals, daily traffic, current budget and type of campaigns you are going to run. Some networks may straightaway approve you as a CPA marketer. In other words, approval process depends on reputation of the CPA network.
When you apply as a CPA marketer be specific about your goals and shouldn't try to bluff them with fake experiences. Many people often forget to emphasize more on long-term goals. CPA networks simply love affiliate marketers who have established websites or blogs with good number of followers. Be honest while approaching CPA networks. You will get an affiliate link once approved as a CPA marketer. Marketers can track their earnings and conversions on their network dashboards. Being a CPA marketer you would be assigned an Affiliate manager to assist you in all areas.
How one can get more benefit with CPA marketing
It is better to join a reputable and established CPA network to gain more profits. One should ensure that they pay on time without delay. The earnings totally depend on the network and niche. Some networks may pay $0.50 to signup for a newsletter or $20 to join a website. One should figure out the best campaigns which are relevant to your niche. Making the site informative and attractive helps to attract more traffic which results in good conversions. One can really make money with CPA marketing if they are passionate about those specific niches they are going to promote. Don't panic if you get rejected by any CPA network. Analyze the mistakes and try to improve in those areas. Sites like Offervault and odigger help you to find amazing and genuine CPA deals.
The main advantage is affiliate manager will contact you every time they come up with the new offers. On the downside CPA marketers may feel annoying when they need to talk on phone with CPA network people while joining.
Conclusion : Before joining any CPA network make sure that you have a great website and it is performing well. Moreover, it is the passion which drives towards the success. Newbies should utilize all the resources available to find best CPA deals.
This is all about how to make money with CPA marketing. If you like this article please do share with your friends and leave your valuable comments below.

Great article. I am looking to try my hands on CPA marketing, and I could not get a better article than this. The only thing which I did not find was how do we promote our CPA product? How do you drive traffic to it?
Hi Gautham,
Nice to see you again. I'm glad you like this article. Actually I was planning to write a post on promoting CPA products. But, let me explain you briefly the best ways to promote a CPA product. Generally some reputed networks come up with their own landing pages where you need to redirect users. If they are not offering them then you could simply launch a landing page where you could send potential users for action. You could also use Social media like Facebook pages, Twitter, Youtube and Google+ to drive users. It is always better to go with PPC rather than depending on organic traffic to get good results. I wish you great success with CPA marketing. Thanks for asking.

Hi Aditya,
Yes Teespring is really awesome. Thanks for the suggestion and comment bro.
I still haven't understood the difference between CPA and PPD/Affiliate marketing. Will you mind explaining it?
Also, can I start CPA on a blog of mine http://winappleworld.com/ ? Hope that you review it and tell me if I can start with the same blog or go for others.
Hi Anchit,
Thanks for stopping by my post. Pay per download is a performance based model and it is a type of CPA marketing. 90% of the companies who are doing PPD campaigns are scamsters as they indulge in illegal activities like spreading adware and spyware along with toolbars and games. It is better to stay away from them. I recommend you to go with PPA campaigns. Your site is fantabulous and you can go with it. I wish you good luck.
Nice post, thanks for sharing the information
CPA Marketing is the best way to earn money online. Thank you for publishing a good article.
