No current Talk conversations about this book.
An engaging novel reminiscent of other Koontz works. Our butt-ugly hero meets socially retarded heroine--they fall in love. The story mostly humms along until the end when it gets interesting. As other reviewers have noted, our hero would like Odd Thomas, one of Koontz' other heroes.
A Beauty and the Beast type tale in which Addison Goodheart encounters a girl called Gwyneth. Addison is unspeakably ugly in some unspecified way,but is at the same time gentle and good. He lives beneath the city streets and comes out only at night.Into the city comes an unspeakable evil which threatens to end the world.
The author must be given best for writing a story which is so unusual.Just a pity that the ending turns out to be somewhat conventional.
I recently read "The City" by Dean Koontz - which I liked a great deal. That was a big departure from most of his previous books (which I enjoyed but would classify as good reads as opposed to good literature). I was so impressed with "The City" that I backed up and read "Innocence" - and enjoyed that even more.
The most telling line in the piece is, "But although this story is of the Modern Age, I have not written it for that age." This is a fairy tale (complete with a character name of Goodheart) - but it is lush and beautiful and tragic and wonderful. The main character, Addison, has spent his life hidden away from the world. Anyone who looks at him feels immediate hatred and violence and fury. The reader is given to understand that something about him, something about his face is so horrific that even his own mother has been tempted to kill and - and drives him away when he is young. And yet. This character, whose life is so lonely and tragic and seemingly awful - is happy.
"To one degree or another, I have been happy most of my life. In part because the world has infinite charms if you wish to see them. Also, the world's many mysteries fascinate me and inspire in me a hope so profound that I suppose, if I were to express it sincerely and at length in a manuscript more bluntly philosophical than this one, any normal person, those who walk freely in daylight, would find it the work of a Pollyanna and worthy only of ridicule. Of course I also have periods of sadness, for there is sorrow baked into the clay and stone of which the world is made."
Addison's view of the world is just lovely - especially given how every person in the world looks back at him. Somehow, he does not hold the darkness in his heart - he sees the world clearly - and sees parts of it that no one else can.
"Nature is an exquisite machine that is never violent except when contending forces within it need to be rebalanced. And then the violence is nearly always short-lived, a day or two of storm, ten minutes of a tsunami, a minute for tectonic plates to shift and accommodate each other. Nature doesn't make war for years on end, and she has no malice."
To be fair - some parts of the book need work. While Koontz's writing style is far improved from past books - sometimes the reader still runs into a buzz saw of words like: "Gwyneth piloted the Land Rover as if she were a Valkyrie, from Viking lore, whose wings had been clipped, as if she needed urgently to find the fallen warrior assigned to her before he died and, in the moment when his soul emerged from his body, drive his spirit to Valhalla."
I was very impressed with this book. With the tragic, quiet beauty of it - and with the ferocity of some of the emotions. Fairy tale though it might be, it is one written with our world in mind - with the great flaws of humanity exposed - and the great love of people for one another celebrated.
I have a hard time not dropping the now extant R from his name. Back in my teens, I read a lot of Dean R. Koontz, but then he got to be repetitive and boring so I stopped. People have said that he's gotten better since so I gave this a go despite some very polarized reviews. I wanted something a bit unearthly and mysterious, but light. Pretty much I got it, but it was so disjointed that the story fell apart. Lots of coincidence that works in fiction if the upshot has a lot of importance - a conspiracy with no point is a let-down. With Addison and Gwyneth it really was. Oh sure it tried to be all symbolic with the end of rank and file humanity, the earth to be repopulated by this purely innocent Adam and Eve, but really I didn't care. Besides that, the big reveal about Addison's monstrous appearance was a snoozefest as well. The love story seemed a bit too distanced and one-sided (with Addison doing all the yearning and perceiving nothing like that in his beloved). Addison himself is too worldly wise for his age and circumstances no matter how many hours he spent at the feet of this wisdom-dispensing father or in the library. His philosophical musings and insights were unbelievable even if they were occasionally sensitive and touching. Also, Gwyneth's ability to do everything despite being young, sheltered and mental is just too much. All that driving as if she was a rally veteran, I don't think so. Her unforthcoming and condescending attitude grated, too. Am I sorry I read it, no, it was a comforting and soothing experience, just one that doesn't really linger or resonate.
Innocence is one of those books where the whole is feel less than the sum of its parts. The main characters were quite interesting and the premise of the story was appealing. As a matter of fact, there really isn't anything wrong with the story other than it had far more potential than it actually realized. Koontz is a skilled writer and I feel like Innocence could have been much more than it was. But the pacing was very slow in the first half and stuffed far too many reveal in the last one hundred pages. As it stands, Innocence is an interesting story. However, I almost want Koontz to get a do-over because of what might have been.

Novak played an incredible level from Aus Open to about Rome/RG. After that despite winning 2 more slams his level was not unreachable at all and players like Fed, Murray, Del Potro, Tsonga and yes, even Rafa, will not be just handing over those trophies next year.
The domination of Novak 2.0 ended at RG - he didn't "dominate" Wimbledon (losing sets to Baghdatis & Tomic),
he didn't "dominate" the US Open (in fact funnily enough Nadal's 2010 win was more dominant than Novak's 2011 despite Novak clearly being a better HC player
! Tipsy & Dolgopolov were more of a handful than any of Nadal's opponents till the final in 2010....) and the less said about his season post-US Open the better. Dominating is winning a slam like Fed did Aus Open 07 or Rafa the French in 08 - that is very tough to do and even Novak with his 2.0 level will not steamroll every opponent in sight forever. Fed in 04-07 looked quite untouchable by most players - Novak apart from that early hardcourt stretch last year did not reach that level IMO - consistency, which was his best asset, is not something you can rely on to be there for years on end. Fed's forehand was a weapon that was simply unplayable at his best - Novak's backhand as good as it is cannot be compared in the same way.
On the topic itself - I think he has a great chance to still stay year end no.1 and defend 1-2 slams, and 2-3 masters (either IW or Miami - unlikely to be both; one of the clay masters and possibly Rogers Cup). He'll obviously defend Belgrade and probably Dubai too.
Novak actually played against real ATP players in his US Open

There are a lot of different ways that you work with search engine optimization. You could either hire someone to do it for you on a professional level, or you can hack and slash your way to more attention on your own. It's best to hire someone that knows what they are doing to implement certain components to your site and outside of your page as well. This may take a little bit of time, but I will pay off in the long term. The main pieces to proper SEO implementation include onsite link distribution, navigation, load times, code design, and offsite backlink generation.
The hardest thing to implement when it comes to search engine optimization is that of backlinks. You will find that there are good, bad and ugly methods that can be employed to do this. Most companies will not outright tell you how they do it, and some companies will be forthright about their practices. You will find that most of them don't really care about the method that is used, as you can easily find packages as low as a few bucks for hundreds of links and submissions.
If you're not sure what any of the good or bad backlink options look like, consider the following carefully.
The Worst Type of Linking Strategy
When you're looking online for SEO firms, you will find that there are a lot of companies that say they are number one. When you go and hire them, they are going to offer you something very strange. They will give you cookie cutter solutions, some of which will give you hundreds of links, content submissions, articles, and more. After they have gone ahead and worked for you, they will deliver a report with a long list of links that your page is getting attached to. If you see hundreds of pages and URL's that have nothing to do with your niche, or even foreign language sites, you have been had.
The worst type of links are the ones that are coming from dead, dormant, and irrelevant pages. This is a standard practice amongst cheap SEO firms, and individuals that are just starting out with internet marketing.
A Better Kind of Link
There are some better links that you can get generated, and they start with paying a little more for optimization services. The better type, albeit marginal, could be found with .edu .gov links. There are a lot of government pages, education pages, and more. These are ranked high for information and can link out to several different pages. These better types can give you a little bit of a push, but don't expect miracles from them. You want to balance these links well with more prominent strategies, and don't rely solely on them for your traffic. It's best to have a combination of different marketing practices overall, so that you are not relying on just one avenue of promotional consideration.
The Best Type of Backlinks are Hard To Get
Regardless of how you procure this type, you will find that there are some links you absolute want. These are from top notch sites in your niche, and they are often times not paid for and not solicited. If you create a quality website full of content, and you gain authority and reverence in your industry, outsiders will link to you. When a top name links to your site and gives you praise, your page rank overall will rise. Getting this type of link is tough. Some professional companies can bridge the gap for you, but overall, it's a bit harder to marginalize this.
Generating interest in any type of website is tough. You could pay a lot of money for it through PPC campaigns, or you could do it slowly with the help of proper optimization techniques. Just remember, this is a long term investment, and not something that should be rushed.

@seppli: I'd say the core problem lies in the fact that X-Com has always been a very gameplay focused game, so changing the gameplay while keeping the theme is basically like making a completely different game. The situation reminds me of Syndicate really. There was nothing wrong with that game, but calling it Syndicate didn't do it any favors. There isn't really any reason why any of the iterations they showed needed to be linked to X-Com, and basically all it has done for them is create a lot of fervor against their game.
True enough. Especially the first iteration of The Bureau could have been great, if it wasn't burdened by XCOM's heritage. I love X-Files-style secret alien invasions. Yet as it stands, I don't think The Bureau in its current iteration is necessarily unworthy of XCOM's heritage either. For one, it's way too soon to condemn it so completely, as some seem to do.
2K Marin tries hard to capture the mechanical soul of the turnbased games, and translate it into a 3rd person action experience. Yes - the resulting gameplay looks similar to Mass Effect, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. I for one love Mass Effect, and plenty seem to have latched-on to Mass Effect's gameplay mechanics to the point of making ME3's coop, which is soley driven by its mechanical rather than narrative hooks, a longterm success for Bioware.
It's not that hard for me to imagine a true-to-XCOM action gameplay experience, using Mass Effect as a stepping stone. More granular and precise squad mechanics. More interesting and diverse powers. Larger squads. More interesting squadmate customization and more intricate equipment management. Perma-death. In my imagination - by adding the hooks of the turnbased game to Mass Effect-like action mechanics, I end up with a compelling and distinctly XCOM-feeling gameplay experience. At least that's how the inner eye of an optimist sees it.
Of course Bioware did a killer job with its gunplay in ME3, and is commonly quite underrated and underappreciated in that regard. It remains to be seen if 2K Marin can craft a similarly rewarding shooting experience. I sure hope so. I enjoy good games.

When a print is made, the relationship of light to dark in the negative is reversed. Darker tones print as lighter tones; things to do in Las Vegas
Monochrome Diary: Images on Film
While black and white digital photography is based on the conversion of a color (RGB) image to monochrome via software, those who remain adherents of film photography have an entirely different route to obtaining a black and white image.
With panchromatic film, the image is formed by the action of light upon light-sensitive silver halides in the film emulsion, the light-sensitive coating on film base. These exposed silver halide grains are then reduced to metallic silver by development in chemical baths, which create a matrix of silver densities that we see as a negative image. To obtain a print, this negative is then made positive by re-exposure onto photographic paper, or onto other photographic material. Prior to development and after exposure the light-exposed silver halides form a latent image. When we develop we are in a sense amplifying that image to make it visible.
That scenario is basic to all photographic film processes. When we take a picture, we allow a controlled amount of light to strike film. If properly exposed and developed, the tonal scale obtained will be an accurate reproduction of the relationship of the luminance or brightness values of the original scene. Thus, the brighter areas, or highlights, will have more density than the darker, or shadow areas in the negative, and the relationship of dark to light, and the relative value of those areas to one another, will be equivalent to the original scene.
When a print is made, the relationship of light to dark in the negative is reversed. Darker tones print as lighter tones; lighter tones in the negative print as darker tones in the positive. The negative is created with one exposure value (EV), or amount of light striking the film. Prints can also be made in this way, but can also be made so that selective areas are given more or less exposure, which is where the digital burn and dodge tools get their name. "Burning" (adding more exposure to selective areas) or "dodging" (reducing exposure in certain areas) is an important aspect of printmaking. This yields great creative control of tonal values when prints are made.
In black and white, the monochrome scale goes from bright, texture-less white to deep, detail-less black. In between are a range of gray tones that stretch across what could be called a grayscale spectrum. This tonal scale is, for simplicity sake, broken up into eleven steps, or zones. The division points within this 11-step scale (from Zone 0 through 10) are somewhat arbitrary; indeed, if there were only 11 steps in this scale we would have a very limited palette; there are in fact many more steps and nuances of tone.
Contrast is a key element in all photography, film or digital, yet the way a particular level of contrast is achieved is quite different. Contrast is the overall relationship between light and dark values. When talking about the scene we are photographing, contrast is determined by the relationship of the highlights and shadows, and is measured in EV, or exposure values in the scene. For example, on bright days with deep black shadows we have a fairly high-contrast scene. On overcast days with no shadows we have a low contrast scene. To judge contrast you can measure the brightest and darkest part of the scene with a light meter, note the difference in EV (the combination of aperture and shutter speed) and derive the contrast from the difference.
That scene contrast is a given, or constant. Yet, after exposure, film photographers can manipulate contrast, to an extent, by the time/temperature of the film development stage and the type of developer used. Extend developing times and/or raise temperatures and the contrast will increase; decrease developing times and/or lower temperature and the contrast will decrease. With silver halide prints, contrast is determined by the contrast grade of the paper used to make prints, and although time/temperature of the developer bath has some effect, it has a minor effect on print contrast. The contrast in prints, or relationship of dark-to-light values, is manipulated chiefly through paper contrast grade selection, and can be modified by the artful use of burning and dodging of particular areas of the print or even by a technique known as "pre-flashing", which adds a base density fog to the paper prior to making a print.

Death by Numbers.
Do you enjoy death? Are you the kind of person who laughs at obscene, comical demises such as the ones found in The Itchy and Scratchy Show? Than Swarm might appeal to you. Its quirky sense of humor and weird concept seem fun at first before being violently shot down by poor controls, bad level design and a game breaking bug that will have more than one player give up before the credits roll.
Swarm doesn't care about telling a story. You play as a swarm of little blue guys who must cause enough mayhem to feed their queen. Right off the bat, these little guys are charming, each of them dying in pretty terrible ways (this makes for one of the best main menus in gaming history) and making weird sounds. Their look kind of feel out of place however, in front of the bland environments. It's a shame that the developers didn't stick with some kind of artistic theme, it would have made the dozen or so levels you play through much more enjoyable.
Swarm's gameplay is unique. It's a cross between Lemmings and Bulletstorm with a certain Pikmin feel added in the mix. You must guide your swarm of 50 through increasingly hard levels. Causing mayhem will get you points and you must have a certain amount of points by the end of the level to succeed. This is both a fascinating and frustrating concept. Fascinating in the sense that you must constantly keep your multiplier going. Killing your own swarm will get you points forcing you to make a choice between keeping yourself alive or risking it. Frustrating in the sense that this game is hard. Very hard. You're sometimes attacked from all sides, left helpless to watch your swarm endure a mildly entertaining death. Unfortunately though, this isn't the good kind of hard à la Super Meat Boy. This game is hard because the level design and gameplay fail.
Swarm's gameplay is its biggest problem. You control the game with the left stick, using the triggers to do things such as sprint. You'll soon realize that the controls don't have the responsiveness needed to survive the later stages of the game, your swarm feeling like a bar of wet soap. But the gameplay isn't the only problem. The game's camera and level design are a mess. You have to deal with a fixed camera that doesn't always show you jumps which makes for a lot of trial and error. The level design makes trial and error seem like even more of a chore with levels that are set in pitch black darkness asking you to guess where the next jump is. Super Meat Boy's difficulty came from solid gameplay and level design, testing your skills without becoming exceedingly frustrating. Here, you feel like the only reason you're dying is because the game was poorly made.
Finally, this game has a pretty severe bug on the 360. If you have watched the QL on the site, you see that at the end, the game locks up. This actually happens every 3 successful levels and forces you to reset your console. This glitch happens almost every time and like most bugs it is a pain. Which is why I recommend any potential buyers wait until a patch arrives.
Swarn is all things considered a disappointment. It has funny characters and an interesting premise which is bogged down by mediocre gameplay and a game killing bug. I would only recommend this to players who are looking for a really hardcore challenge. Everybody else should go play Super Meat Boy.

Rated 4.3 out of 5�by 16 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5�by 8U mom Lefty softball glove I bought this glove for my 8 year old. She is tiny for her age and I was worried that the glove would not stay on her hand, or would be too difficult for her to close. Neither was the case. The glove stays securely on her hand and the material is very soft and needed almost no breaking in. February 5, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by SoftballMom Great quality My daughter has been very pleased with the fit and ease of use. There was no breaking in necessary, she could immediately use it. March 5, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5�by SoftballDad Not for softball I bought this glove for my daughter to use last year for baseball. This year she switched to softball. Overall the glove is of good quality, however, the 10" is too small for softball. I'd only buy it if you're going to use it for baseball. June 9, 2013

72 Aero
Weight : 58 oz
Issue : Aug 2013
Editorial Review
At 72mm deep, these wheels look and perform like time-trial wheels, but handle better, making them ideal for riders who want an aero edge every day. The wheels pushed me around in wind, but didn't require heavy-handed steering input. In turns, the 72s tracked well and there was just a little give—particularly in the front—when sprinting. The wheels absorbed road vibrations, but also muted some valuable feedback. They slowed smoothly, and the included brake pads provided good modulation and control. My only complaint was the slow engagement on the hub's DT-Swiss internals. Upgrading to the 36-step ratchet would halve engagement time.—Matt Phillips

Bitcoin, released to the world in 2009 by a person or people called Satoshi Nakamoto, is not backed by a central bank or a government and is seen as an alternative payment system. In February 2013, Bitcoin went into the mainstream as a monetary crisis threatened to bankrupt Cyprus, seen as a safer bet. Early adopters of Bitcoin have been richly rewarded as the price has soared – in one case, a young Norwegian bought a house from an $850,000 windfall on a US$22 investment.
Hong Kong's first bitcoin shop to open this week in Sai Ying Pun
Outlet will turn cash into virtual currency, while three other firms pursue plans for ATMs

Hong Kong's first retail outlet for the virtual currency bitcoin will open on Friday.
The 400 sq ft shop in Sai Ying Pun, in Hong Kong Island's Western district, is the brainchild of Asia Nexgen Bitcoin Exchange.
"The biggest issue people have right now is buying the bitcoin. People have to put money in, trade it through an exchange online," which takes time, said Lo Ken-bon, the co-founder and chief executive of Asia Nexgen.
"Now, you walk into the store, hand over your cash and send the bitcoin to your digital wallet."
Bitcoin enthusiasts will be asked to provide an identity card and proof of address, to comply with Customs and Excise rules on money laundering.
Lo is not the only one in Hong Kong hoping to cash in on the bitcoin craze; a trio of start-ups are racing to install the city's first bitcoin automated teller machine.
Evan Griffin, a spokesman for Bitcoin Group HK, said his firm would import two ATMs from Portugal to be installed at the International Finance Centre and Wanchai Computer Centre.
Another firm, Hong Kong Bitcoin ATM, will install a machine in Mong Kok, with more to come if it is a success. Each ATM costs US$4,000 to US$5,000.
Video: Vouchers worth HK$500,000 in bitcoin given away in Hong Kong
Las Vegas-based bitcoin- teller manufacturer Robocoin originally planned to launch a machine last month, but its plans have been put on hold for unknown reasons.
As with all bitcoin enterprise, the legality of the operation remains blurry. "We will be operating it as a vending machine. There's no exchange of money involved," Griffin said.
A source from Customs and Excise said officials were considering which government department was responsible for regulating bitcoin-based activity.
The government has stated that bitcoin is not a real currency and businesses should have proper safeguards in place to prevent money laundering and financing of terrorism.
"You should assess the extent to which your services are vulnerable," the department said in a circular released by the Money Service Supervision Bureau on January 30. "This issue is especially relevant where emerging technological developments may facilitate anonymity."
Meanwhile, the value of a bitcoin remains volatile. Yesterday, on the world's largest bitcoin exchange by volume, Mt Gox, the price of a single coin plummeted to below US$100. Prices on other exchanges, including Asia Nexgen and China's BTC, were also down. The average price of a bitcoin is about US$550.

Very much like a pyramid scheme. The algorithm that limits the supply only is just a fig leaf. The supply of my toenails is limited too, but that doesn't make them a valid store of value, medium of exchange or investment opportunity.

How long must I wait to have intercourse after a Tummy Tuck?
Doctor Answers 14
Intercourse after tummy tuck
Your surgeon will talk to you about resuming relations. This will depend on muscle repair, presence of drains, and the progression of wound healing which are particular to your case. Psychologically, you and your partner must also feel comfortable before resuming relations. Remember that the lower part of your abdomen will feel numb for sometime after surgery.

Wait At Least 1 Month Following Tummy Tuck Before Intercourse
Any type of strenuous activity including sexual intercourse should be avoided for at least one month following abdominoplasty. Strenuous activities can elevate blood pressure and pulse rates and lead to hemo-dynamic changes. These changes can result in post-operative complications such as bleeding and seroma formation. In addition, physical exertion can cause stretching and pulling of the soft tissue which can traumatize fresh surgical wounds that are still healing. Under these circumstances, the incidence of wound healing complications would be expected to increase.

I hope this helps.

Sexual Intercourse After a Tummy Tuck
This a delicate question and the answer needs to be handled in a delicate fashion. The reason for not having sexual intercourse (SI) early after any surgery is because you do not want to raise your blood pressure, and therefore increase your changes of bleeding and getting a hematoma. No matter what position you and your partner use during SI, your abdominal muscles will come into play and you want to allow for reasonable repair of these muscles before engaging them in SI.
Back and forth shearing movements on your newly repaired abdominal wall could increase the chances of fluid buildup on your abdomen (seroma) which would increase the time of your recovery and also temporarily interfere with further SI.
A safe answer to your question is wait 3 to 4 weeks and let pain or discomfort be your guide.

VIERA, Fla. - Carl Everett is tired of explaining why he chose to join the Montreal Expos.
"I've been asked that question 10 times this spring," said the two-time All-Star, who signed a $7.5 million, two-year deal with the Expos in December. "It's got to be the same thing - honesty. That's it. That's the answer."
Everett hit .287 with 28 homers and 92 RBIs last season for Texas and the Chicago White Sox. Montreal is counting on the right fielder to replace at least some of the offense lost when Vladimir Guerrero signed with Anaheim.
"If you ask him something, he's going to tell you the truth," said hitting coach Tom McCraw, who also coached Everett with the New York Mets and Houston. "It might not be what you want to hear, but it's the truth. In his eyes and in his mind, that's the truth. He's not going to lie to you. He's going to tell you the truth. That's the way it should be."
Everett looked at the results the Expos achieved during the last two seasons, when Montreal overcame its uncertain future to post winning records.
"The odds that were against them, and the talk that was about them and for what they accomplished. Anyone who's not impressed is pretty much an idiot," he said.
Everett earned a reputation as a difficult player in Boston, where he produced at the plate but feuded with managers Jimy Williams and Joe Kerrigan. He earned a 10-game suspension for head-butting umpire Ron Kulpa.
"I think he's a player that is very misunderstood" said Baltimore first baseman Rafael Palmeiro, a teammate with the Rangers. "He's a great guy, great character, great team guy, great leader. Everything that I can tell you is positive. He comes to the ballpark to play the game hard every day, he gives himself to the team everyday."
Everett knows some are taken aback by his opinions.
"I'm going to be me," he said. "I change for no one.
You will never get to know a player reading the paper," Everett added. "You will never get to know a player seeing him play on the field, so why care about a perception? He's performing on the field, that's all that matters."
Already on record for questioning the existence of dinosaurs and the veracity of the moon landings, the born-again Christian thinks the gruesome depiction of Jesus' sufferings in the movie "The Passion of the Christ" aren't authentic enough.
"If you read the bible, it says they beat the beard off of him," Everett said. "There isn't anyone alive who can imagine what he went through."
His new teammates like what they see. Outfielder Brad Wilkerson was impressed that Everett noticed something in his swing and offered to help him with it in the batting cage.
"He's been very cordial about working with other guys and not afraid to work with other guys, and that's what we need in this clubhouse," Wilkerson said. "We haven't had a vocal leader before."

Keeping life fun, sweet and simple.
I'm fairly laid back and truly enjoy and appreciate the simple things in life. I greatly appreciate and am attracted to responsible, open minded and sometimes overly thoughtful personalities. I like to surround myself with friends and people who inspire me to continue growing as a person in all aspects of life. My daughters are my world and I'm excited and hopeful to one day be able to share them with someone amazing. I love sight seeing and traveling though I don't get to do it much. I appreciate new things and experiences for what they're worth. I try to find the positive in most things and people; there's at least something to learn from everything, good and bad. Any beach is a favorite beach of mine- one of my favorite places to be. I'm a sucker for romantic chick flicks but like action movies as well. I like to have a cup of coffee and people watch sometimes. I really try not to spend too much time being too upset at anyone or anything.. it just takes so much energy I'd rather not spend to be mad. For you.. I like someone who is smart at picking their battles and has a good understanding of what is truly important and what matters at the end of each day. Someone who is capable of honest self reflection and who is not too hypocritical. Messy people and food smacking drives me crazy as does someone who isn't of their word. Many extra points to a man who is reliable, humble, has great style as well as quiet confidence. Let the adventures begin... : )

I love going to SF to hang out and try new things. I've been to Tahiti and Bora Bora- both absolutely amazing. I would love to travel far more frequently than I've been able to.
My daughters- they crack me up. Good wine good food good company = fun : ) Water sports and activities, movies.
I love trying new restaurants, going to the movies, the beach... almost anything outdoors.

Album Summary
- Sophie Junker
- Makoto Sakurada (Tenor)
Notes & Reviews:
BBC Music Magazine, October 2012
Sophie Junker is a personable Diana to tenor Makoto Sakurada's youthfully lyrical Endymion. Best of all if baritone Roderick Williams's Pan who renders the outrageous toadying distinctly palatable. Suzuki shapes everything with his trademark light touch, if he's sometimes inclined to under-characterise the drama.
Gramophone Magazine, Awards Issue 2012
Brilliantly caught, from the casting of the four characters to the expectional continuo work, led by Suzuki himself. Makoto Sakurada (as Endymion) conveys the ensnaring potential of love with friendly caution, while Pan (the ever-communicative Roderick Williams) delivers the first feel-good excursion in celebrating our Prince as Pan of his country.

When Top Gear drove the Peugeot 208 T16
Seb Loeb's 875bhp was fastest at Goodwood this weekend. Here's what happened when our man got a drive
Posted: 01 Jul 2014
At exactly 9.30am, the near-deafening sound of an engine bred from an anarchical, no-rules policy reverberates off the garage's cold, breeze-block walls. The car tentatively rolls out of the garage with Peugeot's development driver Grégory Guilvert at the wheel. It's in the configuration for testing at Mont Ventoux - subtly different from the Pikes Peak set-up, as we're at a much lower altitude, so the turbo is in a different state of tune and we don't have the trick post-combustion system. The ground is also wet, so grooved tyres sit at all four corners - something they didn't need in the States. But, even with a damp track, it's just a case of a quick slalom to get some heat in the tyres then Grégory engages full warhead mode. The combination of crisp, relentless revs from the engine, punctuated by instant gearchanges, plus the sheer rate that the Pug gets from one part of the track to another, requires a complete recalibration of the senses. Kris has a hungry look in his eye. Soon enough, it's his turn.

Many large government and commercial private networks are not currently fully interoperable with the public switched networks: They operate according to a different set of protocols and standards. These networks, if fully interconnected with the public networks, could augment NSEP resources. Another impediment to end-to-end interconnectivity is the possibility that many terminal devices will not be entirely compatible with network interface standards.
Recommendation No. 11: Retain Existing Synchronization
As existing network synchronization levels already exceed those required for national security emergency preparedness, no action need be taken to increase the robustness of network synchronization beyond existing standards for normal network operation; designers of terminal devices should engineer them to operate satisfactorily under system synchronization standards. (Chapter 5)
In one respect, that of network synchronization, the existing and prospective network capabilities appear more than sufficient to meet present and future NSEP requirements. The committee examined network synchronization in detail and concluded that the present standards ensure an adequate margin of safety. However, because users have full freedom to connect registered terminal devices to the public networks, it is incumbent upon equipment designers to build units that function properly within existing network synchronization standards.
* * * *
In essence, the vulnerabilities stemming from changes in network regulation, technology, competition, and customer demand are not significantly offset by any countertrend. Robust systems such as NETS will be necessary to enable the government to carry out vital NSEP responsibilities. Civil emergencies will also require enhancements and backup to the capabilities of networks whose architectures are being driven primarily by economic incentives rather than by security concerns. Otherwise, serious losses will threaten governmental, commercial, and personal pursuits.

Michael Vick has put together a strong start to the preseason. Vick, 33, is 13-for-15 for 199 yards though two games. While all signs on the surface point to Vick being the teams quarterback the Eagles have not made it official yet. Chip Kelly talked about who would be the starter for the Eagles: "That's a good question. I thought Mike put another good game together, but we're going to evaluate everything … I think we have two quarterbacks that can play in an NFL game, so we'll continue to look at it." Kelly said following Thursdays game, via Philly.com. As for Vick he talked about how he has grown as a football player under Kelly. "His main goal was to help me get back into top shape, get me comfortable, and to a point where I could believe in myself again." Vick said he "fell in love with the game again, and I'm grateful for that." The quarterback situation in Philadelphia figures to be settled on every front following the teams third preseason game against Jacksonville next Satu...

World Watch Annual Round-Up
The Year in Women's Health News From Around the World
17-year-old education activist and Taliban assassination survivor Malala Yousafzi makes history as the youngest Nobel Peace Prize recipient.
17-year-old education activist and Taliban assassination survivor Malala Yousafzi makes history as the youngest Nobel Peace Prize recipient.
Dr. Rebecca Gomperts, founder of Women on Web, has been pushing against anti-abortion legislation since her days aboard the ocean's first mobile clinic. On a mission to reduce suffering, Gomperts took to the sea, providing women with vital healthcare information and safe, supervised abortions when they were otherwise unattainable. Now fully landlocked, Gomperts and her team are still supplying information and medication online. Their past ventures offer a haunting glimpse into what the U.S.'s female population can expect if recent restrictions on women's health clinics continue at their current pace.
Female architects are finally being recognized as a global mainstay, after decades of misogyny-fueled oppression and discrimination.
Will feminists ever unanimously advocate on behalf of sex workers? While the freedom to choose the world's oldest profession may inspire an avid discussion, it's the keyword "choice" that conveys much of the problem. Women who opt to enter sex work are disproportionately outnumbered by those who are trafficked or exploited into the industry, a detail The Economist makes light of in a recent article focused on the "luxury" and "safety" of internet-based sex work.
ESPN's Stephen A. Smith presses potential victims of domestic abuse to learn about "elements of provocation" in a panelist discussion on First Take, earning Smith a meager suspension, (almost as meager as the suspension doled out to Baltimore Ravens Running Back/Batterer Ray Rice) but it's continuing the dialogue on the pervasiveness of victim-blaming.
High school student Jada, whose assault was recorded and went viral, courageously chose to take control by revealing her identity amidst a climate of mockery and hostility. Online, the recording was received by an unsettling barrage of ridicule from social media users. The atrocity of the brutalization and its aftermath offers us no answers, but does pose a question: when will we begin taking rape seriously?

No, but a series of successful seasons coupled with a cup run or two isn't out of the realm of possibility. That's really what it takes to be successful long term. A dynasty would be nice, and I wouldn't compain if that happens, but it's realistic to think that we could compete handily in that environment.
A salary cap has the potential to create parity. The purpose of a salary cap really isn't parity as much as gving every team to have a chance to win it all regardless of location, financial intake. The NFL's parity (which I assume is what you are basing this on) stems in large part from the low UFA age. Because it is so low, it's hard to keep talent under the cap. If there is a higher UFA age in the NHL (it appears it would be higher than the NFL), it'll become a little bit easier to keep players, thus extending the likelihood of continued success.

Report: Pistons coach Maurice Cheeks questioned by police
Sep 3, 2013, 8:55 PM EDT
Update: WXYZ ABC 7:
Birmingham police are investigating a possible domestic incident involving Detroit Piston's new head coach Maurice Cheeks.
Officers say they were called to an address along Wooodward Avenue late Friday night after someone inside called police.
Cheeks was never arrested, but was brought into the police station for questioning and later released.
Police tell us they have sent the results of their investigation to the prosecutor for review.
New Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer was recently arrested recently and charged with a DUI.
Transition to non sequitur.
New Pistons coach Maurice Cheeks was recently questioned by police, according to The Detroit News:
Birmingham police were called to investigate a dispute involving Pistons coach Maurice Cheeks over the weekend.
Cheeks, who will turn 57 next week, wasn't arrested or booked, nor were there any charges filed by Birmingham police, according to a source with knowledge of the situation. Cheeks was questioned at the scene and let go.
The un-bylined report has no other context on the incident, and it is way, way too soon to judge Cheeks.
I brought up Budenholzer to highlight the difference between the situations. Budenholzer was charged with a crime, and though he's contesting the charges, enough evidence existed to file them. That reportedly is not the case with Cheeks.
I'm sure we'll learn more about the dispute involving Cheeks, but until then, there's really nothing more to say.
