Here in America, a car is stolen somewhere in the country every 33 seconds. While anti-theft devices have grown ever more complicated, the tools used by thieves have not.

As the only natural gas car you can buy from a major automaker, you would think the Honda Civic NGV would have the market for alternative fuels cornered.

Natural gas could be an important stepping stone in America's quest to develop domestic energy. The problem right now is that natural gas filling stations are expensive and the home models can take 12 hours to fill your car. But major auto parts maker Eaton could bring a much cheaper filling unit to consumers homes in the next few years

File - Industry Minister Hussein Hajj Hasan arrives to attend a Cabinet session in Baabda, Thursday, March 27, 2014. (The Daily Star/Mohammad Azakir)
BEIRUT: Industry Minister Hussein Hajj Hasan said Thursday that Lebanon must reduce its trade deficit, even if doing so requires adopting protectionist policies.
"This method is followed by all countries. The GDP is less than $50 billion. Is it fair to have a five-year trade deficit that is equal to the GDP for one year? How can we build a healthy economy if we continue this path?" Hajj Hasan said.
"If at some point we're compelled to place protectionist tariffs, then we will do it to preserve our productive institutions and competition capabilities."
Lebanon's trade deficit widened by 2.525 percent in 2013 compared with 2012, as exports fell by more than $480 million, according to the Customs Department.
"I have informed the ambassadors I have met with that the ministry will preserve the country's industry with the continuation of imports. But we should strive in the foreseeable future to increase exports by $1 billion to $2 billion and reduce imports by the same amount," the minister told industrialists and officials at the HORECA exhibition at BEIL.
Hajj Hasan called on officials to raise these issues during the trade talks with other countries in order to protect the national industries.
The minister called on the agro-food industries to abide by all international standards, warning that he would not tolerate any violations or slackness.

Bad weather in February marred the sales results at discount
Fred's Inc.
). Comparable store sales declined 2.2% in Feb 2014 compared with
a decline of 1.5% in the year-ago period.
Total sales for the month declined 1.0% year over to $157.5
million. Extreme cold weather during the month and snowfall
across the southeast region resulted in frequent shutdown of
shops and reduced operating hours at the stores. This also
disrupted consumer shopping trend and overshadowed the positive
effect of Fred's' reconfiguration plan.
However, reconfiguration departments like pharmacy, pet, auto
and hardware performed well during the month. Fred's also opened
two pharmacy stores in the month.
Fred's embarked on a 3-year reconfiguration plan in fiscal
2012, to enhance its focus on higher-margin categories and move
away from the lower-margin consumable categories. The company is
remodeling and refreshing its store layouts and allocating space
to highlight the key revenue-generating categories.
Fred's is geared to increase pharmacy departments in all its
stores, keeping in view its substantial contribution to the
overall profit. As part of this strategy, Fred's plans to convert
150 to 200 stores in 2014 and take up the pharmacy penetration up
to 60% by 2014-end. The company also plans to implement its
reconfiguration plan in 60 to 80 stores with the Hometown Auto
& Hardware department and seasonal expansions.
Fourth-Quarter Fiscal 2013 Guidance
Fred's is scheduled to report fiscal fourth-quarter 2013
earnings on Mar 27, 2014. Fred's lowered its fourth-quarter
earnings guidance during the January sales conference call.
Earnings are now expected in the range of 13 cents to 16 cents
versus 18 cents to 23 cents as announced previously.
For fiscal 2013, Fred's continues to expect earnings in the
range of 81 cents-86 cents per share, representing 17% to 25%
growth over the year-ago level.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate is pegged at 14 cents per share
for the fourth quarter and 75 cents for fiscal 2013.
Other Stocks to Consider
Fred's currently carries a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell). Some
better-ranked stocks in the retail sector include
Constellation Brands Inc.
Diamond Foods Inc.
) and
The Hain Celestial Group
). All these stocks carry a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).

In part nine (which is really the first part) of a series of conversations exploring the state and future of social media with Chris Beck, founder of 26dottwo (@26dottwo), we define the metamorphosis of media production, discovery and consumption and how social networking is affecting behavior and communication. Our social graphs are shifting from linear connections (those we know) to nonlinear ties defined by those we know, hope to know, don't know but share ideas, and those who endeavor to know us. As such, we are building contextual networks and it paves the way for information to directly connect with discerning audiences.

PRESIDENT'S DAY TRIVIA!With Presidents Day here, I thought I'd do a little research on some of the great men that held our nation's highest office. After much "Googling", I was surprised to find the following fun facts:
- Grover Cleveland could fart the alphabet.
- Confused by the title, and in the midst of an energy crisis, Jimmy Carter tried to pass a constitutional amendment banning the Electric Slide.
- Even while he was president, nobody knew who the fuck Millard Fillmore was.
- James Madison invented the first version of Facebook, then known as Portraitbook.
- "The Great Depression" comes from the term Eleanor Roosevelt used to describe FDR's penis.
- John Quincy Adams thought pleats made him look fat.
- The Oriental Bell Telephone Company was formed at the behest of Chester A. Arthur just so he could prank call his buddy Jim.
- George W. Bush is constantly irritated that his words do not fit in Sudoku puzzles.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — An attorney for former U.S. House Majority Leader Tom DeLay told an appeals court Wednesday that the onetime GOP heavyweight's efforts to influence Texas elections may have been distasteful but weren't illegal.
DeLay, 65, was found guilty in November 2010 of money laundering and conspiracy to commit money laundering. He was sentenced to three years in prison, but that was put on hold while his case was appealed.
A prosecutor with the Travis County District Attorney's Office told the 3rd Court of Appeals Wednesday that the former Houston-area congressman did violate Texas law when his political action committee funneled corporate donations to Texas candidates in 2002. Under state law, corporate money cannot be given directly to political campaigns.
Attorneys for both sides spent about an hour presenting their arguments to a three-judge panel of the appeals court. The court will issue a ruling at a later date.
DeLay, who once held the No. 2 job in the House of Representatives, did not attend the hearing.
The road to the appeals court has been long and filled with various interruptions, including some of the appeals court justices recusing themselves. Also, DeLay successfully had a judge on the panel removed because of anti-Republican comments she made.
DeLay has maintained his prosecution was politically motivated by Ronnie Earle, the now-retired Democratic Travis County district attorney in Austin.
"The bottom line is Tom didn't do anything against the law. This was a political prosecution. It still is," Dick DeGuerin, DeLay's trial attorney, said after the hearing.
Prosecutors have said DeLay's case was not politically motivated and he received a fair trial
On Wednesday, the crux of DeLay's argument rested on what could be seen as a legal technicality: that the once-powerful ex-lawmaker did not commit money laundering because state law didn't apply to funds the former congressman was tied to since they were in the form of a check.
Jurors in Austin determined DeLay conspired with two associates, John Colyandro and Jim Ellis, to use his Texas-based political action committee to funnel a check for $190,000 in corporate money through an arm of the Washington-based Republican National Committee. The RNC then sent the same amount to seven Texas House candidates.

text: Google Wallet closing down Gift Cards and Loyalty Cards Stormy Beach 8 August, 2013 6 Comments Looks like our fearless Google Wallet app is losing a set of features soon. Come August 21st you will no longer be able to use Google Wallet for loyalty and gift card NFC redemption. If you happen to have some balances on those things, you best hurry up and spend them. It does look like this won't be then of it entirely though as then make mention that they are "working with retailers on other options for gift and loyalty card redemption" and that they are "excited to share them with you soon" Don't go freaking out just yet, Google Wallet itself isn't ever going to go anywhere. Google stresses that all other functionality will remain and you can still tap-to-pay all you want. Check out the email being sent out if you haven't already seen it in your inbox. Thanks you for being a Google Wallet user. You're receiving this email because you've added gift and/or loyalty card to your Google Wallet app, and there's a change coming soon that will affect you. On August 21, 2013, we are ending the current NFC redemption of gift and loyalty cards added to Google Wallet. If you've already redeemed your gift cards, you don't have to do anything. If you have a balance remaining and you'd like to spend it using the tap and pay functionality, you must do so by August 21st. If you still have the physical gift cards, they will continue to work even after August 21st. Please note that this does not impact NFC credit and debit card payments, and you'll still be able to tap your phone to make purchases. We're working with retailers on other options for gift and loyalty card redemption within Google Wallet, and are excited to share them with you soon. If you have any questions, feel free to email or call us. Sincerely, The Google Wallet Team. Better get to spending those balances before they are gone. FILA never used this feature of it, probably cuz it was so limited, but do love google wallet and paying with NFC

UNIONDALE, NY - JANUARY 12: Sean Bergenheim #20 of the New York Islanders skates during the game against the Detroit Red Wings at the Nassau Coliseum on January 12, 2010 in Uniondale, New York. (Photo by Bruce Bennett/Getty Images)
Sean Bergenheim scored two goals and the Florida Panthers beat the Toronto Maple Leafs 5-2 on Tuesday night. Marcel Goc and Tomas Kopecky had power-play goals in the third period, Jason Garrison also scored and Jose Theodore stopped 26 shots for the Panthers. Bergeneim now has a career-high 16 goals this season. Mikhail Grabovski and Tyler Bozak scored for the Leafs and James Reimer made 22 saves. The Panthers remained atop the Southeast Division, one point ahead of Washington - which beat the New York Islanders in a shootout. Leading 2-1, Kopecky and Goc scored about 4 1/2 minutes apart to put the Panthers up three goals about midway through the third. Grabovski pulled the Leafs to 4-2 with 6:10 to go and Bergenheim sealed it with an empty-netter with 1:20 remaining.

Maruti Alto replaced by VW Gol as most sold car in the world for 2012
Maruti Suzuki Alto has been replaced by Volkswagen Gol as the largest selling car in the world for the year 2012. Maruti Suzuki sold 286,833 Alto in India, VW sold 293,293 Gol in Brazil.
The VW Gol is Brazil's top selling car since the last 18 years while the Maruti Alto and 800 variants have ruled the Indian auto industry since their launch. Alto sales for 2012 declined due to rise in petrol prices. This led to an 8% drop in sales of Maruti Alto in India during 2012 which led to VW Gol taking over as best selling car. Fiat Uno came third.
Sales for the Gol, Alto and Uno for 2012 are 293,293 units, 286,833 and 255,838 units respectively. Though sales of newly launched Maruti Alto 800 helped figures grow by 20% since launch, changes relating to this will only be seen during 2013. Continued efforts by the company will be make it possible for Alto 800 to reclaim its position from Gol well before 2014.

As of Saturday, June 8, 2013
© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
For the better part of 19 girls soccer games this spring, the pressure to produce goals fell squarely on Lauren Tanner.
Nearly every time, the speedy Mill Creek forward delivered.
Tanner scored 37 goals and dished out nine assists this season, leading the Hawks to their first-ever region championship in girls soccer.
"I definitely surprised myself at times," said the Daily Post's girls soccer player of the year, who joins the Georgia Bulldogs' women's team this summer. "Some of the moments when my team needed someone to step up, I guess I did in those moments. I was in the zone sometimes, I guess."
More than a few times, according to Mill Creek girls coach Brent Leitsch.
Tanner played a role in 78 percent of the Hawks' goals this season, with a goal or an assist on 46 of their 59 tallies. She scored 18 of those goals in difficult Region 7-AAAAAA. Of the team's 15 wins, 12 came on game-winning goals by Tanner.
"She had a tremendous season and she did all that against teams that were geared to stop her," Leitsch said. "That's the biggest thing. Everybody knew they had to stop her to beat us and with the exception of Brookwood and Lassiter, nobody was really able to stop her."
The high-scoring efforts led to some satisfying moments for her team, like the program's first-ever win over North Gwinnett on Senior Night. That was followed up with a region title-clinching victory over Collins Hill.
"Throughout the season, we did a lot better than some teams thought we'd do," Tanner said. "If you'd asked me three years ago if we would be this good of a team, I don't know if I would have believed you. But we came together as one and did our best. We didn't end like we wanted to, but looking back, we made Mill Creek history and had a great season."
Tanner also had a breakthrough season individually, even though she had been one of the county's best players in previous seasons.
After a combined 17 goals and 16 assists her first two high school seasons, she had 23 goals and 11 assists as a Mill Creek junior. Then she took it to another level this season, when her mission was 40 goals.
She came up three goals short, thanks to Mill Creek's second-round playoff exit with an upset loss to Brookwood.
"She became more aggressive this season and began looking for her own shots more," Leitsch said. "Early in her career, she tried to be more unselfish. She realized after last year that we needed her to be more selfish and take her chances."
The tactic worked, boosting her career totals to a school-record 77 goals along with 36 assists.
"I finished three goals away (from 40), but I can't really get too upset about that," Tanner said.
The recent high school graduate is focused on new goals now. A strenuous schedule of offseason workouts with good friends Megan Gil, her Mill Creek teammate, and Georgia-bound striker Rachel Garcia of Greater Atlanta Christian keep her busy. She also plays with Garcia on the Atlanta Silverbacks Women, in more preparation for her debut college season later this year.
"(Georgia's) counting on the freshman class to come in and make a big impact," said Tanner, who plans a biology major and pre-med path at UGA. "I want to be a big part of that. I want to play as soon as I can and start scoring goals."
As excited as she is about moving forward, Tanner can't help but look back, too. She played on some great teams, one that reached the Final Four, but more importantly made great friends and memories at Mill Creek.
"I'm really excited about going to Georgia and having a big crowd out for soccer, but it's a big school," Tanner said. "When you're in a small community like (Mill Creek), everybody follows soccer. My classmates build me up, talking in the hallways about the big game coming up. I'll definitely miss the community here and our fans in the stands."
The Hawks will miss her, too.
"When she arrived, we had never made the playoffs and now it is an expectation to make the playoffs," Leitsch said. "That's the lasting legacy of her and the senior class. And they, Lauren in particular, did it the right way on and off the field, with class and hard work."

First Post
By bladewolf 4 Comments
Well, here's my first blog post. Not sure what to say, really. I guess maybe I'll use this space to comment briefly on comics other than the reviews I already write for moarpowah.com (seriously, check it out). Other than that, maybe it'll be cool to talk with like-minded people about comics and stuff. I can't say I really know TOO much, but I've definitely found out a lot thanks to comicvine and I'm looking forward to learning more.

Bachelor Pad's Kasey Kahl: Vienna Girardi and I Have Not Split!
Not so fast.
After rumors of a breakup surfaced online Tuesday, Bachelor Pad 2's Kasey Kahl tells Us Weekly that he's still together with girlfriend Vienna Girardi.
"We're just doing [the relationship] long distance right now," he tells Us of his romance with his Bachelor Pad costar, whom he's dated since March 2011. "It's for the best."
Though the couple moved into a new Los Angeles home together in August, a source confirms to Us Girardi has moved out and relocated to her native Florida.
PHOTOS: Hollywood's most eligible singles
First connecting at various Bachelor-related events, the duo quickly became smitten, and decided to take part in ABC's Bachelor spin-off as a couple in August. As part of the summer competition series, Girardi and Kahl lived with her ex, fellow BP2 contestant Jake Pavelka, who proposed to her during his 2010 Bachelor stint. (Girardi dumped him over the phone seven months after his TV proposal).
VIDEO: Inside the couple's bitter breakup
Prior to his time on BP2, Kahl famously vowed to guard and protect Ali Fedotowsky's heart during a 2010 appearance on The Bachelorette, only to leave the show brokenhearted.
Though Fedowtosky wasn't smitten, Girardi, 25, couldn't say enough about her knight in shining armor Kahl, 27.
VIDEO: Kasey serenades Vienna on Bachelor Pad
"I love living with this man because the only thing we ever fought about when we weren't together was that we weren't together," Girardi gushed to Us of Kahl earlier this year when the couple moved in together briefly. "We have an amazing relationship. We really are so happy together! I love going to bed with him and I love waking up to him."

The Sleepy Eye School District learned this week that it's application to institute a 4-day school week has been denied by the Minnesota Department of Education. The state denied the application because the proposed 4-day week was "not driven, first and foremost, by academic needs of the students of the district." There were also concerns over the financial impact on low-income families in the district. Sleepy Eye had been pursuing a 4-day school schedule following the defeat of 2 levy referendums last year. More than $850,000 worth of budget cuts have been made in Sleepy Eye in the past 3 years. The move to a 4-day school week would have saved the school district an estimated $80,000 or more a year. District staff and school board members will be meeting with state officials next week to discuss the denied application and what steps should be taken next.

Now these problems are a thing of the past because EcoTowl Bamboo is here! This remarkable "water magnet" is the most environmentally friendly and ingenious kitchen towel ever invented. Better than paper towels, the reusable EcoTowl Bamboo is the best way to clean up spills, dry off tools, or wipe down counters.

Your EcoTowl Bamboo can also be sanitized in a dishwasher or microwave. Cared or as directed, your EcoTowl Bamboo will give you long lasting service without losing its strength or absorption power. And when it's ready for disposal, it can be composted!

Childbirthing classes at your hospital
Comments (7)
I signed up at my hospital and it was $100.00 per couple. My hubby is really, really busy this time of year (basketball coach) so we are taking the 2-day weekend course. It's 6 weeks worth jammed into 2 days. The first day is 9:30 to 4:00 and the second day is 9:30 to 12:30.
My hospital also offers a free tour of the maternity ward and pre-registration on Mondays.
2011 - married my best friend
2012 - dreams came true when I got my BFP
2013 - welcomed "Monkey"
We're also doing the weekend express class. Friday night and full day on Saturday, including the hospital tour. $99 for family.
Since I'm a FTM, we also signed up for the Newborn class, 2 evenings on what to expect and do with a newborn. $35 for family.
Debating about the breast feeding/pumping class, 1 evening for $40. Mostly because DH says the hospital will provide a lactation consultant for free after delivery anyway to show you what to do.
I signed up for one it was $179 for the couple. and it's one day 9-5.
I'm also having tea dates with my friends who are moms to hear their stories and opinions about childbirth, pain options, and breast feeding. Hopefully it helps rather than confuses or complicates things!

Fun Times on the East Side
I'm a sociable, energetic guy with lots of great friends who happen to be all coupled up. And all of their friends are couples. With kids. So here we are! Let's get the cliches out of the way. I love going out and doing things, and the Wheres and Whats of the activities always take a back seat to the Who, so I'm just as comfortable staying local and watching a flick/listening to music (I seriously would like to listen to your favorite album with you) as I am taking a weekend trip up the coast or any other occasion that's the opposite of sitting-at-home. I know...it's seems that we're ALL like that 'round these parts, but, for me, it really is all about the person with whom I'm sharing the experience. Coming from a big family has made me competitive and always looking to interact in the most fun way possible. Recently I've been trying to get outside a lot more often, which means hiking, camping, and playing tag with you. (NOTE: these are not activities I currently practice. Let's change that.) I also dig indoor sports like bowling, billiards and poker. Not that I'm especially good at them... I will flirt - with you, not the waitress. To her I will be respectful and leave a nice tip. Like everyone else, I love to travel. Within the past eighteen months I've slept in Paris, Munich, Milan, Venice, Prague, Dublin, Belfast, Edinburgh and London. Last year I went to my first Olympics! Just got back from Jazz Fest; before that: SXSW. Hmmm...I will not embarrass you in front of your family or friends. I'm neither religious nor overtly political, although I am very interested in world affairs. I live in Los Feliz, work in Beverly Hills, and drive a red '93 Geo Storm to get between the two. This vehicle is where I do a majority of my singing, though I fear that I must soon send her to the Car Farm upstate where she can run around with all of the other old cars. I'm trying to become a better reader. I am frisky. I have parallel parking skills that need to be seen to be believed. I may mimic, but I never mock. I compose great emails. I love watching travel programs and international news shows. I also love the pageantry of having drinks and dinner with friends. I am absent most of the potholes of which ladies attempt to steer clear: unemployment, lack of car, hatred of animals, irresponsibility, addictions, ignorance, non-traveler, dispassionate, etc. So you can go ahead and check those off of your list of introductory behavioral traits, and let's see if our personalities actually mesh. Some other things I adore: Earth tones. The outdoors. The city. A cracklin' fire. Getting re-acquainted. Artful conversations. Makin' out. Good counsel. Road-trippin'. Steelers. Partying all night with friends. Organizing trips. Gettin' down. Appreciating the folks in my life. Goin' places. Keepin' in touch. Makin' things up. My type of lady is one who is self-aware, literate and easy to laugh. Up for a drink or two, more often than not, and even on school nights. Comfortable with herself, granted that we all have our neurotic tendencies. A woman who can appreciate the absurdity of life, from the ridiculous to the sublime and back again. Optimistic and pragmatic. She's not afraid to look silly, but can also glam it up. Sorry...more cliches. We'll likely NOT be a match if: You describe yourself as "God-fearing"; You voted for Prop 8; Your income preference for your date is "$150,000 "; Your favorite band is or sounds like System of a Down; or You think laughing is for jerks. On a first or second date I don't desire to dwell on a litany of getting-to-know-you topics (where are you from, where do you work, what do you aspire to do, etc.), but rather let's drop that exposition into our conversations organically over the course of time and let chemistry and attraction get a chance to work their magic. This is supposed to be fun, not feel like an interview! EMAIL me; please no WINKS or LIKES.
I don't believe in astrology
Milan/Venice for Carnevale last year. Paris/Prague/Munich for my 40th. New Orleans is my favorite U.S. city. Manhattan. SF. Not picky about food, but I love restaurants. Attended the London Olympics; just back from JazzFest, SXSW & Oktoberfest.
The University of North Carolina at Charlotte, Charlotte, NC
My love of movies and music spans all genres. Raiders of the Lost Ark and Beck are my tops. Steelers. Elmore Leonard is my favorite novelist. That "Oh, Hell Yeah!" moment when an awesome song comes on the car radio on my way back home from work.
I like going anywhere and doing anything that allows me to interact with friendly and interesting folks: music venues, camping (though it's been a while), lounges (both loud and quiet), sporting events, poker night, you name it.
Your profile. The trades. Munich train maps...

ing, and significant changes in response to a constantly evolving set of circumstances.
There are, of course, many points of intersection across these areas. For example, eco-feedback devices within the home (a sociotechnical system) interact with the larger, smart grid system (part of the built infrastructure); personal mobile devices (relying on built infrastructure and deployed in a sociotechnical context) provide data that feed into more robust modeling (a crosscutting methodology itself); and so on. In addition, better information about what is happening at an individual or local level can inform broader policy making and decision making.
Smarter energy grids, sustainable agriculture, and resilient infrastructure provide three concrete and important examples of the potential role of IT innovation and CS research in sustainability.
• Moving toward smarter and more sustainable ways of providing electricity will require a rethinking of many aspects of society, including the fundamental electric grid. A forward-looking, sustainable grid scenario presents a fundamentally more cooperative interaction between demand and supply, as well as greater transparency throughout the energy supply chain, with the goal of achieving both deep reductions in peak demand and reductions in overall demand as well as deep penetration of renewables in the supply blend. Information and data management with regard to both time (demand, availability, and so on) and space are essential to making progress toward a smarter, more sustainable electric grid. Computer science research and methodological approaches (in areas including user interfaces and improved modeling and analytical tools) will be needed at all levels to address the broad systems challenges presented by the smart grid.
• With respect to agriculture, there is growing concern regarding whether agricultural productivity can keep pace with human needs. A sustainable food system will be key to ensuring that the world's population receives necessary nutrition without additional damage being done to the environment and society. As with the electric grid, it is in the systems issues in sustainable agriculture that the opportunities for IT seem most salient. Approaches to a sustainable food system include taking a systems view of the challenge; developing methods for measuring the costs, benefits, and impacts of different agricultural systems; assisting in the use of precision agriculture to minimize needed inputs; making information accessible for informed consumption; and developing social networks for local food sourcing. As with the smart electric grid, information and data management are essential to making progress toward a smarter, more sustainable, global food system. Computer science research

Cool idea! the foreshortening of the main character is quite a bit off making him look like he is standing on the pencil sticking out of the zombie head in the right foreground. The zombies that are being consumed by the fireball should not be black silohuettes. The intense light would make them a midtone green at the very darkest.

Great work, nice colors, i love the composition and the light. maybe the feet must be a little bit smaller, it look like its bigger than the head of the zombie. I think you did a really good job!

Completely agree with DPaint... I think that the "flying" zombies are a bit too small.... it makes the perspective look a bit odd... hope this helps!

omg , i didn t even realise how the «flying zombies» were really to small compare to the building next to them :s Thanks for the comment...I might try to work on the feet too, but for now, i really dont see how i can arrange this..I think if i rotate the pencil it will still looks like if the character is standind on the pencil..maybe by making the pencil smaller?
It s gonna be a real puzzle to make this in photoshop because of the way i ve done my layers lol ! but I'll try.
Also if someone knows a good way to do a smoke effect for the explosion in background it would be great, I've tryied to do a good brush or two for it, but all I finally used was brushes done from galaxies pictures I have found on google...

Keep Smiling
I am very social and love hanging out with friends. Although I like to go out on Friday and/or Saturday nights, I also enjoy relaxing evenings at home, especially with someone special. I have a good sense of humor and love a good laugh. I enjoy many activities, but some of my favorites are going to the beach, rollerblading, eating sushi and taking walks with my dog. I love getting a massage and don't mind reciprocating with the right person. I have two wonderful children (ok, they are teenagers, so I use the term wonderful lightly...lol) who are a big part of my life. Although I might mention them once or twice during a conversation, the topic does not monopolize my conversations. I am looking to meet someone who shares my interests and values and perhaps can learn something new from me and I from him. I do not have have any "set in stone" criteria, and believe that the only way to get to know someone is to have an actual conversation on the telephone or in person rather than texting or emailing. However, emailing is good start.
