My dh just brought to my attention (like I didn't already know) that my dd wears a bra. She is 10 years old and I bought it for her for gymnastics. She wears it all the time though. He is mad at me saying I'm letting her grow up too fast. She has recently started listening to one direction and has posters all over her wall of them. He says I'm not doing enough to stop her from acting older. I honestly feel this is normal behavior am I wrong ? He says she will start stuffing her bra and giving guys "false" advertising and end up like me. I had her when I was 15. I talk to her about stuff I know my dd and she is nothin like me. Why won't he just trust me? He said he was good and I was bad. I grew up completely different I was sheltered and rebelled. I can't have her living in a bubble. I don't know what to tell my dh I want to smack him.
I'm sorry but your little girl is growing up.

My oldest is 10 and needs to wear a bra. It happens they grow up.
Posted 12/28/2012
WHOA!!!! I'd be kicking hubby's ass for saying it's bad that my little girl will be ending up like me. I was wearing a bra when I was 10. I was in love with Johnathon Brandis and Garth Brooks and listening to pop music. Girls start maturing before boys. It's just what happens. It also pisses me off that he's more concerned about "false advertising" than the bigger issue of your daughter stuffing her bra because she has self esteem/body image issues. I'd be fuming.
Posted 12/28/2012
I'll line mine up next to yours - he needs a good smack too!
I think it's pretty normal. I remember doing that when I was her age. He has a lot coming if he's already worried about this stuff now!

He doesn't get anything I'm saying he's never been a girl but thinks he knows it all. I hate him so much right
Posted 12/28/2012
It's normal girl stuff! I started wearing a bra around that age and my 5 y/o likes One Direction and LOVES Big Time Rush.
Posted 12/28/2012
I can't believe he said "end up like you" as if its not bad enough that you did/are getting shit about being a teen mom ( I am not by the way) that he had to add the insult! I am so sorry OP. I watch teen mom (I know, so lame lol) and I can't even tell you how many times I have cried. Being a teen mom is hard work! Your little one is growing up- tell him to get over it. That was an ass move. I'm not an overly sensitive person but that definitely would have broke me down.
Posted 12/28/2012
I have no idea who One Direction is, but at least they're not Justin Beiber posters.
Posted 12/28/2012
Ten is about the normal age for girls to start wearing a bra, you can't stop boobies from growing lol and I remember having backstreet boys posters EVERYWHERE at that age. That's normal girl stuff. Even my four year old DD has a little crush on Justin Bieber lol.
Posted 12/28/2012
Eh, the bra is no biggie if she needs it. But I'm very careful not to let 6 yo DD get caught up in crushes and boy craziness. I'd probably discourage her from becoming obsessed with a boy band and wouldn't buy posters for her to plaster over her wall. She also isn't allowed to watch shows that revolve around crushes and boys and all that. She has 2 boys chasing after her and she seems to like this other boy. But I always ask her about her FRIENDS and never tease her or encourage the whole boyfriend/girlfriend thing. And when one of the boys (a dear friend's son) told her he was going to marry her i told her she doesn't need to even think about that until she's all grown up. I want her to stay innocent and niave for as long as possible. And mostly I want her to be confident in herself and not rely on boys' opinions of her to have great self esteem. I want her to become a strong, confident, independent young lady with high standards. So I'm starting young. So I guess I can see where he's coming from.

|2015 (p)
|GDP growth (%)
|Inflation (yearly average) (%)
|Budget balance (% GDP)
|Current account balance (% GDP)
|Public debt (% GDP)
(f): Forecast
- Quality of infrastructures and public services
- Skilled and productive workforce, demographic dynamism
- Competitive international groups (aeronautics-space, energy, environment, pharmaceuticals, luxury, agri-business, distribution)
- Leading tourist destination, world agricultural power
- High savings level
- Insufficient number of exporting companies, loss of competitiveness and market share
- Insufficient innovation effort, low level of product range
- High level of public debt
- Low employment rate of young and older workers
Risk assessment
Slow recovery, restricted by high unemployment rate and lack of competitiveness
Unlike public consumption, household consumption, the traditional French growth support, has only been growing very slowly, held back by rising unemployment (up to an average of 9.9% in metropolitan France in the 3rd quarter 2014) and low level of energy spending. Despite a recent upturn, the INSEE index for household confidence is still at a level well below its long term average. Business investment continues to contract despite credit terms that are more favourable than in most other Eurozone countries. However, companies do not manage to restore their profit margins – which are among the lowest in the Eurozone -, production capacities remain underutilised and business confidence is very low. Housing investment has declined further, contributing to the weakness of the construction sector. As a result of the lack of competitiveness, exports growth does not follow the pace of world trade. There should however be a slight improvement in growth in 2015. Private consumption should benefit from low inflation and a small rise in employment. The pace of foreign sales should pick up thanks to the depreciation of the euro and the strengthening of global demand, while imports acceleration should be limited due to the energy bill reduction. Investment is expected to stabilize in 2015. Labour cost should rise less rapidly but the full impact of theCrédit d'impôt pour la compétitivité et l'emploi (CICE, Competitiveness and Employment Tax Credit) and thePacte de responsabilité et de solidarité (responsibility and solidarity Pact) will only be felt in the medium term. Companies are currently focusing on building their cash reserves or cutting their debts rather than on starting new development projects.
Inflation should remain low because of the limited recovery in domestic demand and the fall in energy costs.
Financially fragile companies and an insolvency rate that remains high
French companies continue to be handicapped by their low profit margins (down to 29.4% in the 2nd quarter 2014) and rate of self-financing (76%). Mainly modest sized and generally not very innovative, they are also underrepresented in the top segment of the range products and export markets, in particular to emerging markets. The number of business insolvencies remains at a high level although it seems to initiate a decline in recent months (63,000 cases in a year at the end of October 2014 compared with just over 64,000 at the end of April 2014). These insolvencies impact on fewer employees but the financial cost borne by the suppliers is slightly rising again due to recent receiverships of intermediate size companies. The construction sector still concentrates the highest number of insolvencies (33% of the total). Other sectors are also experiencing a worsening in their situations, including agri-business and services to individuals (including hotels and catering).
A difficult period of adjustment and a slow reform process
Despite the economy weaknesses and the steady growth of the French public debt, investors have so far remained eager to fund the debt. The 10 year bond interest rate has even fallen below the 1% level. The budget deficit is nevertheless struggling to decline with the weight of public spending remaining one of the highest in the Eurozone (57% of GDP). The country has obtained, in 2013, two additional years from Brussels to return below the 3% limit of GDP in 2015. This objective is not going to be achieved despite the additional measures announced by Paris in response to criticisms from the European Union. It has now been further postponed to 2017.
The government has committed to a reform process, aiming at a supply based policy to overcome the problem of competitiveness. It mainly includes a reduction in companies' charges, funded by reduced spending. Compagnies should also benefit from a simplification of administrative procedures and the government is considering a draft bill on growth and activity covering in particular Sunday work liberalisation and regulated law professions. However, savings targeted until 2017 (€50 bn) will not be easily achieved. The effective implementation of the announced reforms could well turn out more difficult than expected. In addition, beyond the measures taken to improve competitiveness (CICE,Pacte de solidarité), further efforts could be required by the European Commission to improve the sustainability of public finances and reduce labour market rigidities. The current reforming policy of the government feeds growing dissensions within the socialist majority.
Among methods of payment, the bank card is now the instrument used most in France, replacing cheques, which are nonetheless still widely used.
For cheques remaining unpaid over 30 days from the date they were first presented for payment, the beneficiary may immediately obtain an enforcement order (without need of further procedural act or cost) based on a certificate of non-payment provided by his banker after a second unsuccessful presentation of the cheque for payment and where the debtor has not provided proof of payment within 15 days of formal notice to pay served by a bailiff (article L 131-73 of the monetary and financial code).
Bills of exchange, a much less frequently used mode of payment than cheques, have been in virtually constant decline in terms of number of operations with volume remaining essentially steady in value terms.
Bills of exchange are attractive for companies insofar as they may be discounted or transferred, therefore providing a valuable source of short-term financing. Moreover, they allow creditors to bring legal recourse in respect of "exchange law" (droit cambiaire) and are particularly suitable for instalment payments.
In value terms, however, cheques and transfers still represent most script payment transactions.
Bank transfers can be made within France or internationally via the SWIFT electronic network used in French banking circles, which offers a reliable platform for timely payment subject to mutual trust and confidence between suppliers and their customers.
The directive 2007/64/EC (in force since 1st November 2009) on "payment services in the internalEuropean market" sets the legal basis for the creation of a single area for payments in Euros (SEPA), in order to harmonize the rules applicable to the different types of payment (transfers, direct debits, payment cards).
Since the "New Economic Regulations Act" of 15 May 2001, commercial debts automatically bear interest from the day after the due date shown on the invoice or specified in the commercial contract.
Unless otherwise stated in the general sales conditions or agreed between the parties, the payment period is set at thirty days from the date of receipt of goods or performance of the service requested.
Likewise, the interest rate and conditions of application must be stipulated in the contract – failing that, the applicable rate will be the interest rate applied by the European Central Bank in its most recent refinancing operations, raised by ten percentage points as of 1st January 2009.
For the first half of the year in question, the rate applicable is that in force on 1st January and for the second half year in question, the rate applicable is that in force on 1st July.
From 1st January 2013, a professional in default of payment is legally liable to its creditor for a fee for collection costs, set to 40 Euros ( should be stipulated in the General Terms and Conditions of Sale).
Serving the debtor with formal notice to pay the principal claim and contractual or legal interest, nonetheless remains a precondition for any legal action taken by creditors.
Since 19 June 2008, the current limitation period in civil and commercial matters, was reduced to 5 years and the limitation starts "from the day when the right holder knew or should have known the facts to allow him to apply for such right".
Where a debt claim results from a contractual undertaking and is both liquid and undisputable, creditors may use the injunction-to-pay procedure (injonction de payer), a flexible system based on the use of pre-printed forms not requiring applicants to argue their case before the court of civil instance (tribunal d'instance) or competent commercial court – the court having jurisdiction in the district where the debtor's registered offices are located.
Via that procedure, creditors can rapidly obtain a court order to be served subsequently by a bailiff.
The defendant has one month to dispute the case.
A fast track procedure (référé-provision) provides creditors with a rapid means of debt collection, even in routine cases lacking any real urgency, provided the claims are not subject to substantive dispute; in such cases, the judge can grant a provisional payment in favour of the applicant that can represent up to 100 per cent of the claim.
However, this fast track procedure requires the presence of an attorney to represent the creditor in court.
If a claim proves to be litigious, the judge competent to rule on special urgency (juge des référés) evaluates whether the claim is well founded. As appropriate, the judge may then declare himself incompetent and, based on his assessment of the apparent validity of the case, invite the plaintiff to seek a ruling on the substance of the case through the formal court process.
Formal procedures of this kind permit having the validity of a claim recognized by the court, a relatively lengthy process lasting about a year or more owing to the emphasis placed on theadversarial natureof proceedings and the numerous phases involved in the French procedural system: submission of supporting case documents, written submissions by the litigants, examination of the types of evidence, various recesses for deliberations, and at last, the hearing for oral pleadings (audience de plaidoirie).
If justified by a claim's size and the uncertain solvency of the debtor, legal action may include a petition to obtain an attachment order on available assets and thereby protect the plaintiff's interests pending completion of the proceedings and enforcement of the court's final judgment.

Hi, everyone!
I have been lurking for a while, but now that we're actively TTC #2, I'm joining in for some support. I'm in the waiting to know part of the month and after a few months I'm not even buying a test until the end of the month.
best baby wishes to all!
I guess I'm 10dpo today and in order to not waste tests I don't have any in the house. I might order some from Amazon and have them be guaranteed to show up 12dpo.
welcome, zbugmama! we've been trying for over 6 months so I also have stopped keeping tests around. Seems like with my fertility cycle there's another cycle: getting excited and hopeful, (day2 of AF- ovulation) then being more and more upset and worried and disappointed until i think i will just give up. Then there are a couple of days of real heartache before I become hopeful again. I really want this to be the month!
Hi Ladies, I hope I have everyone in the right spot on the header. Let me know in bold if you need something changed. Sorry I haven't been very chatty.

I am possibly in my TWW now. WHo knows though because my last cycle was about 43-44 days long! I was also in the middle of planning a wedding and then getting married. My period showed up 18 days later, two days after my wedding.
This month I took the most relaxed approach I could. I was sick right after my period ended, but we DTD at least 3-4 times before supposed ovulation, and then 3 times after. We're going to continue every other day or so just in case my cycle is all wonky again.
This month I just went with the flow. No temping, no checking my cervix. I'm pretty sure I have EWCM because it was on the TP when I wiped a couple times. This is only our 3rd cycle of trying since removing my IUD in March. I'm really hoping for a winter or spring baby! My DS is a summer baby (turning 4 on July 5th!)
Good luck to everyone!
Elijah Mercury (7/2009), TTC #2 with my new soon to be DH! Tattooed, 29 year old cancer survivor!
I'm 6dpo and waiting to know!
I am now waiting to know. I have been temping, so I am fairly sure I am 3 dpo. This cycle I just had an HSG (both tubes clear) and bloodwork for follicular phase hormones (all normal). DH and I are on cycle 13, TTC #1. I am hoping that maybe the HSG cleared some minor stuff out of the way and that we will have a BFP soon!
Good luck everyone and congrats to those who just got a BFP! :)
Me (29) & DH (29) 9.5 years together, 2 years married, TTC since 4/2012.

Good luck everyone!

Can't do any BDing until at least Sat, so who knows what's up with me! Right now I'm just going to treat it as waiting to O...
fingers crossed for you, delightedbutterfly!
I caved and ran to the dollar store today, even though I have tests coming tomorrow from amazon. I took one, negative. I am 12 dpo, well officially 12dpo late tonight. I have one more test for tomorrow morning, then the amazon test will show up. I am so, so attached to this cycle being The One. It's crazy.
I had one really positive symtom yesterday- at the park we saw ducklings and I was nearly overcome with a desire to steal one and raise it as my own. I always want baby animals in early pregnancy.
The wait is killing me so I am going to get busy cleaning the house to pass the time.
I didn't end up testing after looking at my old charts... BUT I swear the "girls" are way bigger than usual...
delightedbutterfly, I hope that the trend continues and that this might be your cycle!
tabitha, that is pretty adorable. I hope that you get a BFP very soon!
As for me...has time slowed down? How am I still only 5 DPO?? I am feeling a little impatient because I have had a few gut feelings that this will be our cycle, even though I thought I really wanted to get my BFP next cycle. It would be nice to at least be enough DPO to start questioning every cramp and tired feeling. Normally, I'm not this obsessive when TTC, but for some reason I am just anxious to meet my next (and last) baby.

TeaJunkie - I'm day 5.5 DPO (disagreement between my symptoms and what my charting site says, so I'm splitting the difference). Maybe we'll end up in the same DDC again! And I'd prefer next month, too.
DS born 6/03, DD1 born 9/06, DD2 born 10/10, DD3 born 4/14.
Last night I had the worst cramping. Not that it hurt the worst but because I was so, so miserable and upset that it meant AF was coning (I'm day 27 today, AF due tomorrow). I just laid in bed and watch Torchwood and moped. At one point DH was talking to me and I burst into tears- another sign of my period coming round. What a terrible, bummer night.
This morning, though, the cramps her gone and a sweep of my cm did not show blood. It's funny 'cause I have had some spotting on day 25-26 in all my past cycles. None this time. My breasts hurt badly, but then they do at this point in my cycle anyway.
I took a dollar tree test yesterday with a BFN, but I decided to take another one this am with FMU. I deliberated over whether or not to use FMU or wait until after breakfast. Anyway, I think it is positive. No, no, no congrats for me yet because I am not sure. I've been awake about an hour and the weird crampy feeling is back (never had this with my previous 4 pregnancies). The test shows a line that is so faint I can't capture it in a picture, but I can see it. Even if I walk away for awhile and come back, it's right there, plain as day. SO of course I am excited but I am not calling DH to tel him until I test again and get something more visible. I'm expecting amazon test strips in the mail today. That's when I'll test again.
Wish me luck!
Fingers crossed for you! I have had terrible horrible crampin in every pregnancy after my first. Including the pregnancy that resulted in my second DD
So I texted this to DH. He's so excited! Please send me prayers & good wishes for a healthy pregnancy. I am so worried, more than I have ever been. I really hoped and prayed for this one for so long.
And I wish you all
congrats tabitha!
Please move me back to waiting to O. I was so so sad when AF arrived early Sunday morning. I had my heart set on a winter babe--it would have worked out really well for our family. And today at our local pool I saw like 6 pregnant women--I couldn't help but feel that nagging ache in my heart. Sigh. But I'm trying to move forward and think happy thoughts about a potential March baby. Fingers crossed!
Tabitha~Yay! Congrats. I always want baby animals too when I am pregnant....in fact with one of my unplanned pregnancies I actually bought a boxer puppy and found out a week later that I was pregnant. Whoops. Now anytime I want a baby animal my husband makes me pee on a stick!
Add me to the 2 week wait. I ovulated today. I usually feel cramping when I ovulate but not this time and my temps were higher than typical. Not holding out hope this cycle...we shall see.
Hopefully this will be everyone's month! Baby dust a plenty.

Congrats, tabitha! I wish you a happy & healthy pregnancy and birth.
ocelotmom, it would be awesome to be in the same DDC again.
Fingers crossed for you, seattlemamma and runonmama.
So DH was drawing a train with all the members of our family in it for DS2 (a regular occurrence around here). He drew mommy, daddy, DS1 and DS2. Then DS2 grabbed the pen out of his hand, drew another one in front of me and said "baby!" He has never done this before, but the day he did...happened to be the day I ovulated. If I am pregnant this cycle he wins psychic points!

I want to share (just in case it happens to others) that I had and continue to have pretty intense cramps. I thought it would be AF, but it isn't and I have positive tests. I have never had cramps before, except perhaps with my first when I didn't know I was pregnant for awhile. I can only imagine this has something to do with the big gap between this baby and my lat, maybe my uterus is getting back into gear? So jif you have cramps, it doesn't mean your aren't pregnant.
Hello ladies, I am Cressy Howard. Recently married 6-12-13! I have a beautiful and wonderful 6 year old son, named, Domonique Marques Hoke! I am on cycle 6 of TTC. I O'd around the 15th, my cycles have been wacky for the last few months, finally have settled on a 30 day cycle, after years of a 28 day cycle. I have has 2 losses since my son in 2006! Just began trying again in February! Started taking Maca to try and regulate things a little better, this month! I would love to be part of your group! So I am guessing approx. 6 dpo! Let the countdown begin!
Cressandra ~aka~ Domonique's mommy! Trying for number 2, after 2 miscarriages! Good luck to all!! DS born November 1, 2006!
DPO 1...13 days to go 'til POAS and get a big, fat, BFP....
Wife to Dh and homeschooling, mother to DD16 DS12 DS9 DS5 DS3. Due with 6th child in March 2014.
We're back from vacation, but with no news here. I got really frustrated with the yeast and did a seven day treatment. It definitely made things better, but the infection is still not gone. I feel like I should probably go to the doctor, because this has never happened to me before. My kids also have ringworm. I don't know if it's all related, but my friend said a similar situation happened in her house. They all took systemic drugs, got better, and never had a problem with yeast again. Sigh.
So I'm out for this cycle since we couldn't do anything during the useless treatment. We'll see what happens next month. Hopefully I can figure this thing out!! I want a homebirth and we don't have air conditioning! I don't want to be giving birth in the summer!!!

I tried to use mine as a brush for my masks now, and even for that this brush is useless.

This brush is okay. Granted, this is the only foundation brush I have ever bought but it works alright. But for a dollar, it's worth it!

Ohmygod -- this brush SUCKS. I like most E.L.F brushes, but this one is just terrible. It's flimsy & applies foundation terribly. Even though it's just $1 - don't waste your money!

I'm totally digging this brush right now. It's my favorite and I can't believe something so cheap could be so effective. I know it's not the best quality but the reason why I like it is it doesn't suck up all my foundation and it's super easy to wash and it is the perfect size. I have so many brushes, MAC 187, SK and ET skunks, and other foundation brushes but I keep using this one. Washing this is super easy and it's a breeze and it dries super fast. Hasn't shed on me yet. My foundation does not streak and it is perfect for Revlon Colorstay, which is thick. Kinda strange for me that I prefer this over my HE brushes but hey who cares, I like it.

Not a good concealer brush. It didn't blend well at all 'nuff sed. However, I do use it to apply liquid highlighter.

Goodie! I like it. For blending in Concealer, that is. I even use this under the eyes (gently, of course), and it works heaps better than using my fingers. Gets better coverage too. And for the price you really can't beat it.
I can't see this as a foundation brush, though. It's way too flat for that.

worst brush ever purchased! the price is wonderful though. well all E.L.F. products are great priced. anyways, this brush gives you major streaking and when you apply foundation it feels like your applying your foundation with a paint brush. the bristles aren't thick at all and you can't do much with it. i personally use it for concealing sometimes but i'd be better off using my fingers for that. not a good brush overall.

If you're looking for a good, cheap foundation brush, this is a nice one. The bristles are soft and durable and I've experienced no shedding at all with mine. I wasn't expecting much for $1, but was impressed with the quality. It's not the greatest out there, but it's very usable. I prefer a larger brush because, frankly, I have a big face! LOL I would use this in a pinch, though, if my everyday brush came up missing or was being washed.

This was the first foundation brush I ever used. Prior to purchasing it, I had been using makeup sponges to get my foundation on. I remember reading in an Allure magazine that about 40% of foundation gets absorbed into the sponge and doesn't even end up on your face. That's just wasteful. I saw this brush and because it was only a dollar, I couldn't help but scoop it up. My intention was to use it only temporarily until I could purchase a more high end brush. I loved this brush so much, I used it for two and a half years! I was impressed with what it did. I was able to get nice foundation application. I never experienced shedding. For one dollar I got so much more from this than I ever thought I'd get! This brush ran it's course and I could tell because the longer I had it, the streakier the application became. I know I just overused it. I have since been using the Chanel brush. That one has much more bristles and I have come to prefer that. For anyone looking for a great, cheapie foundation brush, look no further than E.L.F. !

i love that this foundation brush has synthetic bristles. makes for easier washing. and it doesn't shed. for a cheap product, this is totally worth it.

The B-3, though the only overdated 1799 obverse-15 star reverse die pairing, is relatively available in most grades and has long been a favorite of both variety and date collectors. This is a lovely AU coin that retains considerable mint luster. Both sides are covered with light gray-lilac toning that deepens to golden-russet around the outer devices. The obverse is generally well struck and there is a bit of highpoint detail lacking on the eagle's breast just above the shield. Minimal abrasions are present, and a loupe is needed to locate the ones that are on either side.(Registry values: N2998) (NGC ID# 24X8, PCGS# 6883)

The Broadway company of Newsies will feature Jeremy Jordan (Bonnie & Clyde) as Jack Kelly, John Dossett (2003 revival of Gypsy) as Joseph Pulitzer, Kara Lindsay (Little House on the Prairie) as Katherine Plumber, Capathia Jenkins (Caroline, or Change) as Medda, Ben Fankhauser (Spring Awakening national tour) as Davey, Andrew Keenan-Bolger (Mary Poppins) as Crutchie, and Lewis Grosso (Mary Poppins), and Matthew Schechter (Elf) alternating the role of Les. Jordan, Dossett, Lindsay, Fankhauser and Keenan-Bolger will all reprise the roles they created in the Paper Mill Playhouse production last fall.
The ensemble of Newsies will feature Aaron J. Albano, Mark Aldrich, Tommy Bracco, John E. Brady, Ryan Breslin, Kevin Carolan, Caitlyn Caughell, Kyle Coffman, Mike Faist, Michael Fatica, Julie Foldesi, Garett Hawe, Thayne Jasperson, Evan Kasprzak, Jess Le Protto, Stuart Marland, Andy Richardson, Jack Scott, Ryan Steele, Brendon Stimson, Nick Sullivan, Ephraim Sykes, Laurie Veldheer, Alex Wong and Stuart Zagnit.
Set in New York City at the turn of the century, Newsies is the rousing tale of Jack Kelly, a charismatic newsboy and leader of a ragged band of teenaged 'newsies,' who dreams only of a better life far from the hardship of the streets. But when publishing titans Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst raise distribution prices at the newsboys' expense, Jack finds a cause to fight for and rallies newsies from across the city to strike for what's right.
Newsies is inspired by the real-life 'Newsboy Strike of 1899,' when newsboy Kid Blink led a band of orphan and runaway newsies on a two-week-long action against Pulitzer, Hearst and other powerful newspaper publishers.

On Easter Sunday—which, for those of you who don't keep a Cadbury Crème Egg calendar, arrives this weekend—Christians celebrate the idea of resurrection. This whole concept of reincarnation got us thinking, not surprisingly, about cars. In particular, it got us thinking about a host of cars we've driven recently that reminded us eerily—even spiritually—of other long-deceased vehicles. From there, it was just an Easter Punny hop to this week's theme: reinCARnation. So grab a handful of jellybeans, a Reese's Peanut Butter Egg, and a rack of Marshmallow Peeps, and click through the slide show to view our own reverent form of automotive worship.

Understood. And I know you are correct, Matt.
My dad was going to toss his old Minolta 35mm film camera. I told him I'd take it if he didn't want it. So I was doing a little surfing online, looking to see if I might still be able to buy some film and try it out. I found a link to a new company called Ferrania in Italy. Never heard of them before. But they are going to start making film real soon now.
I know from my dad that he used to use Kodak film. But I found a big-time photographer at 'indiegogo' who says he's now using up the last film from the last batch that Kodak ever made. And when I Googled on 'Kodak' I found out they are bankrupt and out of business.*
It must be true because I don't see anything online anywhere that I hang out about any Kodak film. My dad says that Kodak died a few years back when his old favorite film Kodachrome died. After that, he just put the Minolta back in its box and bought a digital camera.
* Remember, I'm just a kid reading this stuff.

Nearly all of Cornell's points this year at Nationals came from 4 wrestlers - Perrilli, Dake, Bosak and Simaz. Dake is back, but will be a senior. Bosak - I can't get a clear read on whether he's back next year. Simaz and Perrilli definitely are not. In any case, close to half of their points graduate this year (and maybe 3/4). Only 1/4 coming back (maybe 1/2). A lot of their recruits from the last few years have been disappointing or just haven't found their legs yet.
So what do you think? Time or not? The question is largely tongue-in-cheek, btw. Of course they don't push it, but where do you see Cornell going in the short run?

a fountain with a remore control ;-)
In the very centre of the town in Martyr's Square, near a major crossroad named Hutatma Chowk, finds the Flora fountain, which dues its name to the Roman goddess of flowers and was erected in honour to Sir Bartle Frere, a former governor of Mumbai.
Next to it the Memorial to the Martyrs of the agitations in 1955 for the birth of Maharashtra State.

Flora Fountain.
This is surely a landmark in Bombay. About 30 years back the first shopping mall Akbarallys came up at Fountain. This place is very famous as lot of restaurants and colleges nerby.
Erected in 1869, in honour of Sir Bartle Frere, (governor of Mumbai1862-67)) to whose progressive policy Mumbai owes many of her great public buildings, and growth it is situated in the heart of the city, Decorated at its four corners with mythological figures, the Fountain is a structure in dull stone with a figure of 'Flora' the Roman Goddess of flowers, at the top. Today the Hutatma Chowk area is one of the busiest places in the city, with many banks, shops and offices surrounding it.
Sightseeing: Flora Fountain
Dedicated to the Roman Goddess Flora - Goddess of Abundance - the beautiful Flora fountain was built in 1864 (made of imported Portland stone). It fits perfectly in the area: surrounded by old colonial British buildings.
A word of warning: the Hutatma Chowk (Square in which the fountain is located) is extremely busy, so be careful when taking pictures to not get run over. Actually just trying to cross the road to get to the center of the square where the fountain is located is an adventure in urban navigation.
I would recommend going to see the fountain despite the traffic and pollution: it's very intricate in design and makes for beautiful pictures; and it's very likely that you are in the neighbourhood anyways, since so many other sights are in the immediate surroundings.

Flora Fountain
Flora Fountain is a stone fountain situated in the Fort business district in the heart of South Mumbai. It was built in 1864 out of Portland Stone and sculpted by James Forsythe from a design by R. Norman Shaw based on the Roman goddess Flora. It was built at a cost of Rs. 47,000, or 9000 pounds sterling, a princely sum in those days. It was erected by the Agri-Horticultural society of Western India out of a donation of Rs 20,500 by Cursetjee Fardoonjee Parekh. The fountain was originally to be named after Sir Bartle Frère, the governor of Bombay at the time. However, the name was changed before the fountain was unveiled. Like most things in the city after independence, it has been renamed and is now know as Hutatma Chowk or "Martyr's Crossroads", in memory of the Samyukta Maharashtra Movement.

Flora Fountain (Hutatma Chowk) is at the intersection of three major streets of Mumbai's busiest area.. This monumental statue is, the quintessential icon of Mumbai City. The statue is made of Portland stone. This was made in England and was shipped to Mumbai. This beautiful statue was erected in 1869 in what was then a spacious open plaza. The fountain is surmounted by the Roman Goddess Flora who stands above exuberantly carved seashells, dolphins and mythical beasts. The area has now been renamed. Hutatma Chowk ("Martyrs Square") This area marks the western ramparts of the Fort Area, built by the East India Company in 1716, which covered the southern part of the city. The Fort was demolished in the 1860s by the governor, Sir Bartle Frere, to allow the city to expand. Later civic and commercial buildings were built around this wonderful monument. All these buildings were designed with pedestrian arcades, which today are crowded with hawkers selling a wide range of products ranging from old books to ready-made garments, leather goods, pirated CDs of movies and smuggled electronic gadgets.

Flora Fountain
This is the very heart of Mumbai, circumscribed by stately colonial buildings that stand like proud old sentinels of a bygone era. Flora is the Roman Goddess of Flowers, her pretty alabaster face continually assaulted by grime and pollution. Next to her are a pair of torch bearing stone patriots that rise from the Martyrs Memorial nearby. Flora Fountain is now called Hutatma Chowk or Martyr's Square to honour those who died in the tumultuous birth of Maharashtra State. All around the square sit Mumbai's infamous vendors selling just about everything under the blazing tropical sun -- from cheap nylon saris and ballpoint pens to herbal remedies. Tooting horns and traffic complete the chaotic picture, but through it all Flora manages to retain her serene composure.
Hutatma Chowk (Flora Fountain)
It is situated in one of the most congested areas of the Mumbai city. Surrounded by huge and impressive colonial buildings on all the sides, Flora Fountain has a magnificent statue of Flora - the Roman Goddess of Flowers, on top.
The area around the square comprises of all the major banks, along with the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE).

Apartments.Gracin.Povlja A1, next to the beach Povlja, Dalmatia, Croatia
Additional Location Information
Povlja is located on the north-eastern side of island Brac, in one of the most beautiful bays of the island.
Povlja is a small town, with only three hundred population and the island Brac is surely one of the most beautiful ones on our coast, an untouched pearl of the Adriatic sea.
The majority of islanders in both Povlja and Brac in general are occupied with olives, wines and fishing.
Crystal clear and clean seawater, fresh air, countless bays and long promenades and walking paths along the sea make Povlja an ideal holiday resort for a relaxing vacation on island Brac.
In Povlja are several archaeological sites from ancient times and some valuable buildings from the Middle ages period, like remains of an early Christian basilica from the 05th century, the octagonal baptistery with a dome, parts of the Benedictine monastery and defense towers.
Povlja is surrounded by many bays with different types of beaches and the center of the town also offers safe berth in the little port.
Fishing and production of natural food-stuff represent a guarantee that you will also enjoy the offered food here, whereas the hospitality of your hosts will make your vacation in Povlja an unforgettable one.
For true lovers of nature, we recommend to come to Brac and Povlja in May and June, that is the time when sage and lavender are in full blossom and the entire island is covered by their unique scent.
September and October are also recommended periods of the year because the days are warm, the sea is pleasant to swim and the winter seems so far away.

Well, the overall concept is fairly simple to understand, and beginners have a set of recommended items, to understand the idea of an inventory build at least at a basic level. Then there's the tutorial that will further explain the gameplay mechanics, which you can go through entirely or selectively, depending on how much you already know about the game.
The only real compelling argument for getting into the game now comes from that group of friends who spend hours a day playing, telling you how great it is until you finally give in and join the madness with them.
If you're looking for something competitive to sink some serious time into then Heroes of Newerth is one of the best options out there.
For anyone who is a super advanced DotA player, Newerth is a must buy, if only to keep up with the tournaments. Everyone else really should stay away due to the terrible community.
Heroes of Newerth is an intriguing mix of frenetic action and tactical gameplay, showcasing some of the very best aspects of it's still-evolving genre.
A fairly arcane design and an unfriendly community make for difficult entry barriers. [July 2010, p.98]
Curious gamers will be pleased to possess what can be called the ultimate version of the legendary dota mod for Warcraft 3.

Heroes of Newerth is a game that has spread DotA's acclaim to a whole other level by elevating their weaknesses, and improving upon community wants and needs by implementing a reconnecting system and stats system that keeps everything organized and civil.

Aug 27, 2010"Heroes of Newerth" or "HoN" is a great game to play. It is essentially a copy from the Warcraft 3 custom map "Defense of the Ancients" or"Heroes of Newerth" or "HoN" is a great game to play. It is essentially a copy from the Warcraft 3 custom map "Defense of the Ancients" or "DotA".
In HoN (and DotA) you choose from a vast variety of Heroes, each with different roles and abilities. Your team of five players versus another five players with the aim of "pushing" lanes, and eventually destroying the opponent's main structure. AI units ("creeps") spawn every 30 seconds from either side of the three lanes, which automatically attempt the push the lane. If your Hero is nearby when an enemy creep or enemy Hero dies, you gain experience. By gaining experience, your Hero eventually levels up, allowing you to learn/improve your different abilities. By killing creeps and Heroes, you gain gold (as well as gaining gold periodically) which allows you to purchase items to make your Hero stronger.
The graphics in HoN is a huge improvement over the Warcraft 3 graphics DotA was utilising and being able to reconnect to a game is a great if you have an unexpected connection issue.
Many of the Heroes in HoN are clones from the DotA Heroes, which for someone like myself is good - having played DotA for a while, I am able to play HoN with all my old favourites. Although, not all the Heroes from DotA have been ported over. And there are even some non-DotA Heroes in HoN which are really good.
For someone new to this type of game, HoN can be quite difficult to grasp. The majority of the HoN community can be quite mean to new players. However, an easy way to overcome this is to play no-stat games. In HoN, different statistics are tracked as you play, such as Kill:Death Ratio, win %, and Public Skill Rating (PSR). When you win/lose your PSR will go up/down depending on the PSR of all the other people playing. Since most people would like to have a high PSR, they critizise new players who cause them to lose the game, and thus cause their PSR to go down. When playing a no-stat game, none of the stats a tracked, so people aren't aggressive.
However, the game costs 30USD. Which, for a game, 30USD isn't really that much.
Every now and again, Heroes of Newerth has a free-to-play-weekend or even a free-to-play-week where you can play as much as you like for the period. If you want to try -before-you-buy, keep an eye out for these free-to-play periods.… Expand

Heroes of Newerth has a highly technical aspect worth praise and leads the game to having a high replay value. The game is also responsive, which is worth noting compared to DOTA and Dota 2, which are known for being relatively unresponsive.
HoN uses a free-2-play model with a low pay-2-win barring in the form of 'early access' that is currently suspended for an indeterminate amount of time. Therefore, has de facto no pay-2-win aspect.

Apr 3, 2013This is an updated review after I had originally written some scathing criticisms about Heroes of Newerth.
Since writing my originalThis is an updated review after I had originally written some scathing criticisms about Heroes of Newerth.
Since writing my original review, I discovered that the game was updated a few months ago with bots and other improvements. The addition of bots piqued my interest and I downloaded Heroes of Newerth again. I was actually quite impressed with the changes that adding bots did to the game. Although there were still a lot of rude people (mostly from Europe, therefore I permanently avoided using those servers after games with guys who cussed repeatedly over the voice chat at mistakes teammates made), I enjoyed the updated tutorial (thank goodness!) which better introduced me to the game than the original did last summer. I also liked the AI of the bots to a certain extent. The number of bots are very limited. Developer S2 only made a handful of bots internally, leaving the rest of the bots for the community to create. Other than that, predicting the bots' behavior after a few rounds helped me settle into the steep learning curve a lot easier than the first time I played. Since Co-op vs. AI was added, the player community overall improved a lot, especially after I learned that vote-kicking outright was replaced with vote-kicking AFK players only.
However, I still have some issues with the game. I've been playing off and on for a few weeks now and I noticed something that the game lacks, and that is balancing. Every single update that comes out, there is only the cosmetic bug fixes to some heroes so their abilities respond better, but overall, I've seen absolutely no hero balancing whatsoever. Therefore, a hero that's fed early can snowball out of control very easily and single-handedly fend off the entire enemy team (or kill them within a second as soon as they spawn at the fountain). Not even the champions of League of Legends can do this sort of slaughter! It's ridiculous.
Overall, the bots (and a friendly player) brought me back into the game. While it's still not a cakewalk for new players to pick up the game, the overhauled tutorial and new bots will still help rookies get familiar with the game. I'd still recommend League of Legends over Heroes of Newerth due partially to the lack of hero balancing but if you can grasp the mechanics quickly, the game is a fun, fast-paced alternative MOBA to play if you're looking for something new.… Expand

ARLINGTON, Texas Investigators will try to determine if a woman who died while riding a roller coaster at a Six Flags amusement park in North Texas fell from the ride after some witnesses said she wasn't properly secured.
The accident happened just after 6:30 p.m. Friday at Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington. Park spokeswoman Sharon Parker confirmed that a woman died while riding the Texas Giant roller coaster - dubbed the tallest steel-hybrid coaster in the world - but did not specify how she was killed. Witnesses told area media outlets the woman fell.
"We are committed to determining the cause of this tragic accident and will utilize every resource throughout this process," Parker said in a statement Saturday. "It would be a disservice to the family to speculate regarding what transpired."
Arlington police Sgt. Christopher Cook, the department spokesman, referred all questions to Parker. Messages left for Parker by The Associated Press were not returned.
Carmen Brown told The Dallas Morning News that she was waiting in line to get on the ride when the accident happened and witnessed the woman being strapped in.
"She goes up like this. Then when it drops to come down, that's when it (the safety bar) released and she just tumbled," Brown, of Arlington, told the newspaper. "They didn't secure her right. One of the employees from the park - one of the ladies - she asked her to click her more than once, and they were like, `As long you heard it click, you're OK.' Everybody else is like, `Click, click, click.'
"Hers only clicked once. Hers was the only one that went down once, and she didn't feel safe, but they let her still get on the ride," Brown said.
Six Flags said the ride will be closed as the investigation continues, and a concert scheduled for Saturday was canceled.
The Texas Giant is 14 stories high, and has a drop of 79 degrees and a bank of 95 degrees. It can carry up to 24 riders. It first opened in 1990 as an all-wooden coaster but underwent a $10 million renovation to install steel-hybrid rails and reopened in 2011.
When the car that the woman had been riding in returned to the loading zone, two people got out and were visibly upset, Rockwell resident John Putman told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
"They were screaming, `My mom! My mom! Let us out, we need to go get her!" Putman told the newspaper.
Also Friday, an Ohio amusement park's thrill ride malfunctioned when a boat accidentally rolled backward down a hill and flipped over in water, injuring all seven people on it. Operators stopped the Shoot the Rapids water ride after the accident, said officials with Cedar Point amusement park in Sandusky, Ohio.
Six Flags Over Texas opened in 1961 and was the first amusement park in the Six Flags system. It is 17 miles west of downtown Dallas. The park's first fatality happened in 1999. A 28-year-old Arkansas woman drowned and 10 other passengers were injured when a raft-like boat on the Roaring Rapids ride overturned in 2 to 3 feet of water.

Yesterday Google released the first beta of Chrome 37 for Android. The most obvious change: It's now using the 'Material Design' introduced at Google I/O this year. I've been running it on a Nexus 5 running 'vanilla' Android 4.4.4.
First thing you notice: The icon has changed. It's been flattened even more.
The tool bar has been modified as well. Here are Chrome 36 and Chrome 37 in comparison.
Notice a few things missing in the new version? So did I when I first used it. First thought: 'Where has the Stop/Reload button gone?' Well, Google decided to move it from the URL bar to the menu:
I'm not too sure if this is a very clever idea. It's bound to confuse some users.
Also missing: The tabs icon in the tool bar is missing the number of open tabs (though I suspect that's a bug).
The tab switcher is now designed similar to the app switcher in Android L:
Since I'm running the browser on Kit Kat the open tabs don't appear in the global app switcher yet.
On the whole Chrome 37 beta on Android works just as well as the stable version. Whether the user interface updates are an improvement is in the eye of the beholder. I'm sure there will be small changes and fixes between now and the release of Chrome 37 to the stable channel.
