Blog Post Sponsorship
"Jules" has been very, very busy. He (she?) works at a company that specializes in SEO. He just stopped by my blog and posted this note:
I'm Jules and I work at [company name].com, a company interested in blog
advertizing. I found your blog engaging and I'm contacting you to ask if
you are interested in blog post sponsorship.
If you are interested, kindly mail back for confirmation [email].Please include your blog's URL.
Looking forward to doing business with you.

I Googled the phrase "blog post sponsorship" and discovered that it means opportunities for advertisers to pay for ads at the bottom of my posts.
Somehow I don't think Jules is sincere. Here is a Google search with 9 other blogs that Jules has found engaging. In addition, looks like Elmer is also interested in "blog advertizing."
I'm Elmer and I work at [DIFFERENT company name].com, a company interested in blog advertizing. I found your blog onceuponadiet.blogspot.com engaging and I'm contacting you to ask if you are interested in blog post sponsorship.
If you are interested, kindly mail back [Elmer's email] and I'll send you pricing details, guidelines and processes. Looking forward to doing business with you.
Skylar is also interested in blog post sponsorship.
My name is Skylar. I just spent some time digging through your great blog and I found it very engaging. I'm contacting you to ask if you are interested in blog post sponsorship.
If you are, please e-mail me back and I will send you pricing details, guidelines and processes. Looking forward to hearing from you.
Kind regards,

While I don't think Jules really finds my site engaging, some days it sure would be helpful if my time on this blog paid off. What are your thoughts on advertising?
Read sponsorship is a good thing from Mashable.
Read a blog sponsorship justification from Mouse Clone.

Advertisements have their place I feel. I don't think that I will ever pay to have someone write about my site. If someone feels the need they will write about it or post a trackback as you did, and I'm very thankful for that.
That post was ages old and you managed to find it. More than likely via google, but it was still found. This lets me know that the post was worth writing and it helped in a small way.
I do payperpost, and socialspark. I really get tired of them both. But it does help pay for the domain. That is what I really use it for.

Hey Beth: Jules Viernes? Ahahaha! Around the world in 80 days, perhaps? LOL!
I don't have a problem with advertising on a professional blog. I wouldn't do it on my for-fun blog, though. This I'd see as your professional blog, and I wouldn't mind if I saw advertising or affiliate links here. I respect that as a way of making money. Everyone has to make it in some way.
When I decided to go with InMotion hosting, I clicked on the link at menwithpens.ca to get there. They have a little grid of advertising, if you want to have a look, that's nice and unobtrusive. I got great hosting, they got a little bonus from my signing up. We're both happy. They only advertise stuff they'd use.
I have read, though, that you should have so many posts and so many readers before you monetize. I think for sure you have enough material. I haven't got a clue how many readers you have but you can always do some research on monetizing, or send a contact form off to James via menwithpens.ca, since they know quite a lot about marketing and advertising. They are setting me up. He will answer in very short time.
To sum up, I know you've had some moments when you feel it's cheap or unsightly or something like that, but in my opinion, go for it. If it offers me something I might need or could use (you advocate quite a lot of things that really work for you, for example, and you could become an affiliate of those services and thus have their ads on your site), then I'd see it as you offering me resources, not just trying to get money out of my clicking.
Ellynn on 25 Jul 2008 at 10:42 am #
I have no problem with advertising on sites that I read, as long as it's unobtrusive and low-key. You have the right to make money any way you choose. Of course, you obviously shouldn't allow people to advertise products you don't agree with, especially if you have written something to that effect. How great would it be to have a cupcake advertisement at the bottom, though? Serious awesome.
steph on 25 Jul 2008 at 6:50 pm #
Ooooh, a cupcake ad!!
(Seriously, the mention here of cupcakes as well as a pic of several delectable-looking ones on one post has had me going out to buy packages of two-bite ones! Which I managed to finish in two days!! I don't know of any place around here that sells lovely fresh ones.)

POLL: Argyle boss John Sheridan 'absolutely gutted' by FA Cup defeat against Port Vale
Posted: January 15, 2014|
MANAGER John Sheridan admitted Plymouth Argyle's FA Cup exit was 'hard to take' after they lost 3-2 to Port Vale at Home Park on Tuesday night.
Striker Reuben Reid had a late penalty saved by visiting goalkeeper Chris Neal as the Pilgrims were beaten by their League One opponents in a see-saw third round replay.
Argyle had led 2-1 at half-time after goals from Andres Gurrieri and Conor Hourihane, before Port Vale rallied strongly.
They went 3-2 up before midfielder Chris Lines was sent-off for a foul on Hourihane, which led to Reid's penalty kick.
Even after that, Argyle had chances to send the tie into extra-time, with Lewis Alessandra shooting wide from close range in stoppage time.
So it was Port Vale, not the Pilgrims, who picked up the winners' £67,500 prize money.
They will be at home to Championship club Brighton and Hove Albion on the weekend of January 25/26.
For Sheridan it was a case of what might have been as he reflected on the frustrating defeat.
Sheridan said: "I'm absolutely gutted we haven't got through and got the chance to play Brighton.
"I couldn't have asked for any more from the players. I thought they were tremendous.
"We played some really good stuff. The pitch was lovely to pass the ball around on, and we went for it.
"Port Vale were always going to be a threat because they play up to (striker Tom) Pope.
"He's a handful, and they put balls in the box early so we knew what to expect. I'm just disappointed with the goals we conceded.
"They were basic goals, and it's a shame because of the way we played.
"I probably haven't felt like this for a long time, to be fair, when we have a lost a game. I'm gutted for the players more than anyone.
"For the effort they put in, it's a shame we didn't get through."
Sheridan felt Argyle should have dealt with the goals they conceded, but he did not want that to detract from their overall display.
It was only their third defeat in 18 competitive matches, and their first for exactly a month.
Sheridan said: "I think we are playing with a bit of confidence. The work ethic is very good at the moment.
"Even when we were 3-2 down, and we missed a penalty, we were still having a go.
"They are good signs. We played a team who are going well in a division higher. It's just having that killer instinct when you are on top.
"But I don't want to be talking negative in any way," he added. "Everything I have asked from them they have given me, so you have just got to accept it and take the defeat.
"It would have been great to play a Championship club here (at Home Park) but I'm not going to go on about it too much.
"We can't change anything now. We have just got to take it into our league programme and carry on what we have been doing."

Hi everyone, please visit our new look community site and let us know what you think. If you have any problems with the new site, you can still switch back to the current community site.
Well, Its good news for me. I went into hospital on Monday 10th for my first Cystoscopy check since the operation to remove the cancer cells. I was able to watch the whole procedure on the screen. To walk into the room with four female nurses in there was a bit daunting at first, But my anxiety only lasted a few seconds, They were all very profesional, At doing what is quite an undignified procedure. The nurse was giving a commentary as she was doing it, Telling me there is the left Ureter, Then there is the right Ureter and so on. All Ok until I spotted something that looked like a growth, But even before I could ask she was very quick to point out that," That is`nt Cancer" She wrote on the Discharge Summary that it was Slough/Necrotic tissue, I think it is some dead cells that have formed at the site where the Cancer cells were. However, I have been told by the Urologist that they would like me to go back in and have it removed within the next couple of months. I have read on the internet that this Dead tissue can get in the way of the healing process, Can anyone verify this. I have also read that Cancer cells could hide behind it ?. All I have had in the way of therapy is a one of dose of Mitimycin C when I had the operation. Anyway, So far So good. Any comments would be greatly appreciated. The biggest bit of the dead tissue is just 1mm. Jamesv88
I would really like a reply to my post on 18 Dec 2012, I just dont think that I can be the only one that has had this type of problem. Jamesv88
Hi Tim Many thanks for your reply, Yes, I to had a photo of my bladder to take home. I have found that not many people want to look at it though. My last cystoscopy was nothing more than a bit uncomfortable, I guess its going to feel different each time, Depending on how well you can relax yourself. Mind you, I know to relax is easier said than done but I managed it the last time despite that there were four females in the room, But that does`nt matter much does it. I must say though, The nurse that did it seemed to put quite a lot of aneasthetic in the Urethra first , Just maybe that made it better. Our bladders are wonderful containers, I am 66 years old now. If I have had a wee three times a day since I was born thats 3 x 365 x 66 = 72270 Fill ups and empties, And that little valve that lets it all happen, Well, Thats amazing. Once again thanks for your reply, I am pleased to have contacted someone in much the same position as I am, Jamesv88

Police chiefs in Westchester County can go years on the job without a murder or other high-profile crime occurring on their watch.
But William Harris, who died Thursday at the age of 87 and was buried Monday, was at the helm in Harrison for two of the most infamous crimes in Westchester history: the murder of Dr. Herman Tarnower by Jean Harris and the Stouffer's Inn fire that killed 26 people.

Social security numbers and other personal data for 123,000 Thrift Savings Plan account holders were stolen from a contractor's computer last year, a TSP spokeswoman said Friday.
Names, addresses, and financial account and routing numbers of some accounts were also compromised.
Kim Weaver, spokeswoman for the Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board, which manages the TSP program, said the hacking incident targeted a computer operated by contractor Serco Inc., which provides record-keeping services for 4.5 million federal employees, service members and beneficiaries with TSP accounts.
"It was a sophisticated attack that overcame the defenses [Serco] had in place," Weaver said.
Weaver said both TSP and Serco have enhanced their cybersecurity. "We have monitored our TSP accounts, [and] we have no reason to believe that the data was misused in any way."
The attack occurred in July, but the Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board and Serco were not aware of it until they were notified last month by the FBI, Weaver said. The infected computer was immediately shut down and the security of all TSP and Serco systems was reviewed.
FBI spokeswoman Jacqueline Maguire said because the investigation is ongoing she could not say when the FBI knew about the attack or why it took nearly a year to notify TSP officials and Serco.
The Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board notified affected TSP account holders Friday and detailed in a letter how to connect with a call center for support and services, including free credit monitoring. Account holders were not notified until the board determined who was affected.

|Right Heart Assessment by Echocardiography: Gender and Body Size Matters.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 22975789 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|BACKGROUND: Published reference values for echocardiographic measurements of right-heart dimensions and function do not stratify for gender and body size. The aim of this study was therefore to assess the impact of gender and biometric characteristics on right-heart dimensions and function. METHODS: From the echocardiography database at a tertiary care center, 1,625 subjects (mean age, 44 ± 14 years; 47% men) with normal echocardiographic findings between 2000 and 2009 were identified. Gender differences and association with body surface area were assessed retrospectively for right atrial long-axis and short-axis dimensions, right ventricular short-axis dimension, end-diastolic and end-systolic right ventricular area, right ventricular fractional area change, and tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion. The impact of normal values stratified for gender and body surface area was tested in 24 patients with moderate-sized to large atrial septal defects. RESULTS: All dimensional right-heart measurements were significantly lower in women. Differences became smaller when measurements were indexed for body surface area, but significant differences persisted, particularly for right ventricular end-diastolic area (7.9 ± 1.6 vs 8.7 ± 1.8 cm(2)/m(2), P < .001) and right ventricular end-systolic area (4.0 ± 1.2 vs 4.7 ± 1.4 cm(2)/m(2), P < .001). Fractional area change and tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion indexed to body surface area were significantly higher in women (50 ± 7% vs 46 ± 9% and 14 ± 3 vs 12 ± 2 mm/m(2), respectively, P < .001 for both comparisons). The use of upper reference ranges for end-diastolic right ventricular area stratified for gender and body surface area improved the detection of enlarged right ventricles in patients with moderate-sized to large atrial septal defects (92% vs 54%, P < .007). CONCLUSIONS: Gender and body surface area are important determinants of right ventricular dimensions and systolic function as measured on two-dimensional echocardiography. The investigators thus propose the use of measurements indexed to body surface area, with upper and lower reference ranges stratified for gender.

Anthony De Rosa talks with BuzzFeed co-founder and CEO Jonah Peretti and new editor-in-chief Ben Smith about what they'll do with the $15.5 million in funding announced this week. || Watch the video after the jump. Highlights:
Peretti: "We don't feel that we need to cover everything. I think the era of one news organization thinking they have to cover everything in the world is over. … We know that our readers are going to be reading lots of other sites as well."
Peretti: "We have a very, a very smart audience. And although they came to BuzzFeed for light-hearted stuff, they are people who consume serious news elsewhere. So a lot of them I think will be excited and refreshed that now they can get their news in the kind of format they've loved, that BuzzFeed's provided for them."
Smith: "We're fluent in Web culture and writing for an audience that we assume knows everything except for the next story. We're not restating things constantly; readers are telling me they really like that. These are little things but these are very stale forms of journalism."

- The University of Southern Mississippi Department of Art will
present its biannual Art Faculty Exhibition Nov. 13-28 at the university's
Museum of Art. An opening reception will be held from 4-6 p.m. on
Nov. 13 and is free and open to the public.
The exhibition
will feature recent works created by full-time and adjunct Southern
Miss art professors.

this exhibit was mainly for the students' benefit. Feeling strongly
about the importance of the faculty show, she kept back some of
her works that were invited to be part of a traveling exhibition
to have them available for the Southern Miss exhibition.
"We are
always judging our students' works," Douglas said. "As
faculty, we need to let them see our work through an exhibition
like this - it's important in their educational process."
Several members
of the Department of Art faculty have been active in recent exhibitions
and workshops across the United States. Van Houten demonstrated
and lectured about iron pouring in Alabama, Kentucky, and Minnesota.
Torres, also chair of the department, recently exhibited an installation
at the Mississippi Museum of Art in Jackson.
During the
2003 fall semester, Baggett completed a mural commission for the
Jule Collins Museum of Art at Auburn, Ala. Douglas has shown in
juried exhibitions in Louisiana, Kansas, Missouri, Texas, and Colorado.
Ward recently took part in exhibitions in Nebraska, North Carolina,
and New York, and Meade had a solo exhibition at the Meridian Museum
of Art.
The department
offers undergraduate and graduate emphasis areas in drawing, painting,
graphic communication, and three-dimensional design. Course offerings
also include metal casting, traditional and computer aided graphic
design, ceramic sculpture, art education, Web design, museum studies,
photography, and art history. Currently, the department boasts more

Selena Gomez Poses for Mature Photo Shoot in Flaunt Magazine
Our little Disney Channel star is all grown up!
On Thursday, Flaunt Magazine published their interview with 21-year-old Selena Gomez, as well as some sexy pictures from her sophisticated photo shoot. The abstract photographs portray Selena as pensive, with a bob hairstyle and a seductive, yet professional wardrobe.
In a couple of the pictures, the "Slow Down" singer strips down to her lacy lingerie — but don't worry, the pictures still uphold Selena's classy reputation. Despite the choice of clothing (or lack thereof…), Selena still looks marvelous. Her look says, "Come & Get It!"
Also in her interview with Flaunt Magazine, Selena was asked about Lorde's comments that "Come & Get It" portrays women in a negative manner. Selena openly remarked that the "Royals" singer's belief "is not feminism. [Lorde is] not supporting other women. That's my honest opinion, that's what I would say to her if I saw her. I actually covered her song in all of my shows that I've done so far. I'm not sure if I'm going to continue that."
Selena also disclosed personal information to Flaunt, telling them: "Obviously I've made a lot of mistakes because I'm human and I go through all of it. I do think you do you have to make your own mistakes and they make you who you are."
And when asked where she hopes she'll be in the next 5-10 years, Selena responded with: "I hope that I've left a bigger impact. I'm hoping I'm super satisfied with who I am."

Hostage crisis ends in bloodshedComment on this story
Algiers - A veteran Islamist fighter claimed responsibility on behalf of al-Qaeda for the Algerian hostage crisis, a regional website reported on Sunday, tying the bloody desert siege to France's intervention across the Sahara in Mali.
Algeria said it expected to raise its preliminary death tolls of 23 hostages and 32 militants killed in the four-day siege at a gas plant deep in the Sahara. It said on Sunday it had captured five militants alive.
Western governments whose citizens died or are missing have held back from criticising tactics used by their ally in the struggle with Islamists across the vast desert.
"We in al-Qaeda announce this blessed operation," one-eyed guerrilla Mokhtar Belmokhtar said in a video, according to the Sahara Media website, which quoted from the recording but did not immediately show it.
"We are ready to negotiate with the West and the Algerian government provided they stop their bombing of Mali's Muslims," said Belmokhtar, a veteran of two decades of war in Afghanistan and the Sahara.
Belmokhtar's fighters launched their attack on the In Amenas gas plant before dawn on Wednesday, just five days after French warplanes unexpectedly began strikes to halt advances by Islamists in neighbouring northern Mali.
European and US officials say the raid was almost certainly too elaborate to have been planned since the start of the French campaign, although the military action by Paris could have provided a trigger for an assault prepared in advance.
"We had around 40 jihadists, most of them from Muslim countries and some even from the West," Sahara Media quoted Belmokhtar as saying. Algerian officials say Belmokhtar's group was behind the attack but he was not present himself.
Some Western governments have expressed frustration at not being informed in advance of the Algerian authorities' decision to storm the complex on Thursday.
Survivors have said many hostages were killed when Algerian government forces blasted a convoy of trucks on Thursday morning. Algerian officials said they stormed the compound because the militants were trying to escape with their captives.
Britain and France both defended the Algerian action.
"It's easy to say that this or that should have been done. The Algerian authorities took a decision and the toll is very high but I am a bit bothered... when the impression is given that the Algerians are open to question. They had to deal with terrorists," French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said.
British Prime Minister David Cameron said in a televised statement: "Of course people will ask questions about the Algerian response to these events, but I would just say that the responsibility for these deaths lies squarely with the terrorists who launched this vicious and cowardly attack.
"We should recognise all that the Algerians have done to work with us and to help and co-ordinate with us. I'd like to thank them for that. We should also recognise that the Algerians too have seen lives lost among their soldiers."
With so much still unknown about the fates of foreigners held at the site, some countries that have faced casualties have yet to issue full counts of their dead.
Scores of foreigners lived alongside the hundreds of Algerians at the plant, which was run by Britain's BP and Norway's Statoil and also housed workers from a Japanese engineering firm and a French catering company.
Cameron said three British nationals were confirmed killed and another three plus a British resident were also feared dead. One American has been confirmed killed. Statoil said it was searching for five missing Norwegians. Japanese and French citizens are also among those missing or presumed dead.
Algeria's Interior Ministry, which gave the figure on Saturday of 23 hostages killed, said 107 foreign hostages and 685 Algerians had been freed.
"I am afraid unfortunately to say that the death toll will go up," Minister of Communication Mohamed Said was quoted as saying on Sunday by the official APS news agency. Private Algerian television station Ennahar said on Sunday 25 bodies had been discovered. Clearing the base would take 48 hours, it said.
Survivors have given harrowing accounts. Alan Wright, now safe at home in Scotland, told Sky News he had escaped with a group of Algerian and foreign workers who hid for a day and a night and then cut their way through a fence to run to freedom.
While hiding inside the compound the first night, he managed briefly to call his wife who was at home with their two daughters desperately waiting for news.
"She asked if I wanted to speak to Imogen and Esme, and I couldn't because I thought, I don't want my last ever words to be in a crackly satellite phone, telling a lie, saying you're okay when you're far from okay," he recalled.
Algeria's oil minister, Youcef Yousfi, visited the site and said the physical damage was minor, state news service APS reported. The plant, which produces 10 percent of Algeria's natural gas, would start back up in two days, he said. - Reuters

Tracheotomy set, English, 1870-1901.
Image number: 10289218
A complete set of metal and ivory instruments in a leather case, made by S Maw, Son and Thompson of London. The instruments consist of scalpels and needles, a retractor, a bougie and two artificial airways. A tracheotomy is a surgical procedure where an incision is made into the trachea (windpipe) and a tube is inserted to enable the patient to breathe. It is normally carried out when the airway above the trachea is damaged or blocked, making unassisted breathing impossible.

Political year in review
Wed, 26 Dec 2012|
-Hi. I'm Danny Ecker. You'd expect Chicago Politics to make national headlines in the year Barack Obama's running for re-election, but that was hardly the end of it in 2012. Mayor Emanuel stirred with a striking Chicago Teachers Union put the windy city's issues front and center and a spike in shootings and homicides this summer made news around the world. Then there were the ongoing issues facing the city in state namely; Gross Pension Deficits for both and the resignation of Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr. Our Greg Heinz had a busy year. He said he'll meet me to talk more about it. Greg, you had a year one review chat with the Mayor in his office earlier this year. Now that we're well into year two of Mayor Emanuel's 10-year-- how do you characterized the work has been done since you talked with him in April? -Not bad but the honeymoon is definitely over. The city finances appear to be in pretty decent shape. There's been a lot of work on economic development trying to turn around city colleges. But, there's a cost for all of this and the Americans will be excited with the Teachers Union who went in strike. He didn't get nearly as much as he wanted and then the big fight has yet to come on pension reform. I worked with Mayor in which the Mayor and everybody else in the local government might badly need to balance their budget. -2012 is really been the year of the pension deficits both state and locally. Where do we stand now compared to where we were a year ago on those fronts? -Well, we're talking about it which is a good thing. The average citizen I think seems to have some of those cuts up to nearly almost $100 billion on pension liability. But there's a resistance from some of the labor groups involve particularly from [unk] which really said that [unk] she can't take it away, reduce it whatever forever that's, you know, just pointing up guys. We're gonna know very soon, I think whether something's really gonna happen. This is the topic one for the Illinois General Assembly session in the first week and a half of January. And I think we'll know then whether they're gonna do something serious or kick the [unk]. -Yeah, of course we have this [unk] by partisan bill that was flowed recently. Another key development this year obviously was the democrats taking control of both the House and Senate in Springfield. Meanwhile the U.S. House you have the delegation now being a democratic, mostly democratic delegation there. What's that all gonna mean for the kind of work that gets done in 2013? -Well, everybody involve I think Barack Obama who led the ticket and, you know, not gonna have that kind of sport very often. What I mean in Springfield, these democrats now like controlled both chambers but they control both chambers with the majority. Means, the republicans are absolutely relevant 'cause you have a democratic governor too Pat Quinn. It means they've gotta get some stuff done or they potentially be able to set themselves up for being wacked by voters next time there's an election. In Washington it means that the democrats are in-charge again just about everything in all my politics except for [unk] who supposed to be back at work again very soon. There were in the minority but what it really means is the republicans have nothing to start from in the state. They mean they're to shut out everything. -Yeah. Lots to look forward to in 2013. The fun continues. Thanks Greg. -Always.

The 10 Biggest Douchebags in Country Music
By Mike Seeley
Argentina's Todos Tus Muertos (All Your Dead) are even more fiery, burning like a Rage Against the Machine set the day after a U.S. air strike on a Third World country. And they're just as political: they named themselves in honor of 30,000 killed by '70s Argentine dictator Jorge Rafael Videla. Fidel Nadal, their dreadlocked, bearded front man, frantically leaps around the stage like this was the last gig of his life, which inspires much stage-diving, crowd-surfing and chronic-sucking in the audience. Several of their songs are clearly about anarchy, which, if they had sung them 20 years ago in their home country, would have gotten them bullets in their heads or a chopper flight and skydive without parachute over the frosty South Atlantic. Like Latin Frozz, they're also about unity—and here come Latin Frozz now, who toss back whiplash rhymes with Nadal. It's a furious rock rap collision, a culture merge that ends with embraces all around. Todos' final song invokes Zapata and revolution. They leave, but the crowd yells for more: "Muertos! Muertos! Muertos!"
Co-headliners Caf� Tacuba, one of rock en espa�ol's most popular bands, are all about hyperactive, off-kilter rhythms, and a freaky front man who's currently named AT Medardo ILK (he changes it with each new album). They have no drummer—at least not on this tour—just a programmer. Still, they're as creative and experimental as Beck: on one song, their fiddle player effortlessly guides the band into a Mexican folk ballad, and after sticking with that for a few minutes, they lock into a soul groove, with ringing guitars clearly swiped from old Byrds records. Caf� Tacuba are wonderfully odd yet extremely poppy.
They're nowhere as pissed-off, though, as Mexico's Molotov, another rap-rock band, who sample "Bohemian Rhapsody" while churning up aggressive, up-yours guitar riffs and deep, guttural wailing. But just when you think they're getting too one-dimensional, they invoke U2: "This is not a rebel song, this is 'Chinga Tu Madre!'" If you didn't learn it on the playground during recess when you were growing up, that means "motherfucker." And soon, the entire theater is filled with perfectly timed scream chants: "Chinga! . . . Tu madre! . . . Chinga! . . . Tu madre! . . . Chinga! . . . Tu madre!"
Insipid? Sure. But it's also the perfect way to wrap up Watcha, with a primal, anti-authoritarian rant that's as liberating to holler along with as Rage's "Fuck you; I won't do what you tell me!" and Ice T's "Fuck the police!"—as explosive as the cocktail that Molotov named themselves after.
But who is Molotov aiming at? More important, who's the crowd thinking of when they scream, "Chinga tu madre"? Mother Mexico's rulers, who for years made rock & roll very hard to find, lest it corrupt the country's youth (in the '50s, one Mexican newspaper went so far as to print an unsubstantiated story about Elvis, quoting him as supposedly having said, "I'd prefer to kiss three Negro women than one Mexican")? Are they thinking of opportunistic Alta California politicians, who've been using Latin immigration as a wedge issue to fuel their own gains for far too long now? Who knows?
And right now, no one cares—sometimes, in any language, it's great to just feel like a punk. We look up. On a hilltop next to the arena, a small fire is blazing brightly. La futura, again. After the show, just outside the exit, stands Giovanny Blanco, Viva Malpache's singer. He's handing out fliers for his band's upcoming gigs, saying hello to new fans, and soaking up much praise. We introduce ourselves, telling him we thought they played great and letting him know who we are and where we're from. "Oh, yeah, Orange County," he says. "We've played the Foothill and some other places down there. We'd like to do more shows. What we really want to do, though, is play the Doll Hut. We want to really start building up our credibility." Viva la revoluci�n!

|Extraction and transport of chromium(VI) through a bulk liquid membrane containing triphenylphosphine.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 15689029 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|The solvent extraction of chromium(VI) in chloroform, dichloromethane, dichloroethane and its transport through a chloroformic bulk liquid membrane from sulphuric acid solutions with the neutral extractant triphenylphosphine (TPP) were studied. It was highlighted that the TPP extractant is an interesting complexing and efficient carrier for transport of chromium(VI) as [(HTPP)HCr2O7] complex from a 2M sulphuric acid solutions. It has a high ability to concentrate the chromium(VI) in the receiving phase according to the Donnan equilibrium. The co-extraction and the co-transport of sulphuric acid is very low and has no effect on the transport efficiency. The transport rate depends mainly on the initial concentration of the extractant.

text: Pope Benedict XVI has condemned "unregulated capitalism" for contributing to world tension, while every precious stone from his finger, clothes, or throne, can feed many starving children for years. He presides over enterprise worth 10 to 15 billion dollars. It costs 22 cents to provide a starving child with a meal. This graduate of Hitler Jugend, who is now the head of Roman Catholic Church, is condemning capitalism, while only 1% of his enterprise's wealth can feed 1.2 to 1.7 million starving children for a whole year. Are the rubies and diamonds are put to better use on his fingers, rather than feeding millions of dying children? What would Jesus answer to this question?

Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich Review
South of the border though, Google has recently shown how the big boys should play. With Android's market share constantly expanding, and no real competition save for the iPhone, which is very stable, but doesn't grow as fast, one would think that Google doesn't have too many reasons to worry about its influence on the mobile sector, so why should it rush to innovate? Well, think again, as the Mountain View company recently undertook a complete redesign of its platform. A bit risky, you say? Probably quite a few analysts have quoted the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" saying, but you know what? In our opinion, Ice Cream Sandwich is probably the best thing that has ever happened to Android.
In our Samsung Galaxy Nexus Review, we praised the phone for being extremely capable and pleasant to use. However, we wouldn't have given the Nexus such a high rating, if it wasn't for Android 4.0 ICS. This new software managed to get us really excited, and now we're simply looking forward to having ICS on more and more handsets. However, until these start popping up on the shelves (hopefully sooner rather than later), we wanted to take our time to sit down and write a few words to describe our feelings about the new mobile OS by Google.
The looks
So, what is it that's making ICS such a big deal? Not that it's all about the looks, but we must admit that the appearance of a product, no matter if it's a phone, tablet, app, or even an OS, is very, very important. The crude stock interface of all Android releases, up to 2.3, was among the main issues of the platform, and with ICS, Google has fixed just that. Actually, the company took Android 3 Honeycomb, which was used on a number of tablets, and used it to build ICS on top of it, meaning that there isn't a single trace of Gingerbread. That's a good thing no matter how you look at it, as we are now treated to some of the best visuals one can find in a mobile platform. Not only have all the graphical elements been redrawn, the OS is also full of other little eye-candies like fancy 3D transitions and effects. As a whole, ICS retains the predominantly futuristic appearance of Honeycomb, but refines it even further to make it seem a bit more approachable even to not that tech-savvy users.
Probably the best thing about all this is that even with all of this eye-candy, everything runs buttery smooth, at least on a high-end phone like the Galaxy Nexus. Well, you can observe an occasional slowdown here or there, but as a whole, Android 4.0 leaves an impression of being a very fluid and fast platform.
Streamlining the experience
If ICS was only better on the outside, and the same on the inside, it wouldn't have had so much of an impact on the Android ecosystem. However, Google has made sure to enhance its innards as well, so we're happy to report that your overall experience with the OS will not only look better, but will also be more streamlined as well. What we mean here is that there have been made dramatic changes with regards to how you operate with it. One of the most important alterations in this respect is the omission of the context menu key, which was previously used to display additional options for the app or screen that you've currently opened. All of there options are now part of each app's interface itself, which means that you'll no longer have to look at two different places to find options and settings for an app (the interface of the app and the context menu), but just one – what you see on the screen. This, our friends, is what we call streamlining the user experience, and we're very happy to see Google making the right moves in this direction.
In addition to basic navigation within Android 4.0, core applications have also received a facelift. For example, the People app now comes with a completely new UI, designed to bring the most important content at the forefront, without being cluttered with all kinds of buttons and options. Other programs, like the Calendar, have been enhanced to offer new functionality and better navigation by utilizing gestures. This indeed makes using ICS somewhat more intuitive than using Gingerbread.
Being able to have multiple applications running at the same time, or multitasking, has been among Android's main advantages over iOS for a long time. However, its hold-the-home-button-for-a-couple-of-seconds-to-show-running-apps method wasn't exactly what we'd call quick and predisposing, and thankfully, it has now been replaced with a simple dedicated key. Oh, how much easier this is, and how much more we used it. Upon pressing the multitasking key, it brings up a scrollable list of your running apps (complete with a thumbnail), just like in Honeycomb. As you know, many kinds of "advanced" functionality have been supported by various mobile operating systems before, like multitasking and copy and paste, but their implementations haven't always been adequate for use on the smaller screen of a phone. Eventually, devs had to think of ways to implement those said functionalities that would make them easier to use, and the advancements that Google has made with regards to multitasking in ICS fall exactly into this category.
App support
In order to multitask, however, you'll need many apps! So how's the situation with support for apps designed for previous versions of the OS (because, obviously, there aren't many apps written for ICS right now)? It's fine, but not great. Most apps, especially simpler ones, will have no trouble running on an ICS device, but there are some more advanced products, like 3D games, which are not really supported by the platform. For example, we tried Asphalt 5 and it ran, but its interface was offset from the screen and the touch controls didn't work, so the game was virtually unplayable. However, we believe major app developers will be quick to update their games and applications to add Ice Cream Sandwich support.
Manufacturer UIs
All in all, things are looking pretty good for Android right now. It has undergone a major redesign, positioning it much better in terms of approachability. The system now looks beautiful, complete and advanced, with only minor kinks to get worked out.
From its humble beginnings until today, Android has walked a long and bumpy path, but has eventually become a robust platform, suitable not only for geeks, but regular consumers as well. With the Ice Cream Sandwich update, Android phones and tablets are closer to being mass market products than ever before. And probably for the first time ever, this won't be due to a lower price, but to the quality of the platform itself. We are very happy and excited about this, and are looking forward to meeting more ICS devices along the way. Surely those will be appearing on the horizon very soon, but you know what? We can't wait!

It really is completely AMAZING
Best name of any Android addition thus far
Most complete android addition thus far
Best looking android addition thus far
Well done Google!
P.S. Yes I did read it!

addition or edition?? OMG you android fans!! LMAO!!
15. kshell1 (Posts: 1143; Member since: 05 Oct 2011)
i think he may have been employing addition as the next version or something like that. maybe not sure but maybe.
16. Dmann (Posts: 165; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
I´m a civil engineering student.and english is not even my first language. But I write/speak better than many north americans.
And I love Android.
What´s your point?
I can even use commas, something an Apple fan I know (I believe you all know who I'm talking about) can´t do.
There was even one who wrote "Makes since". Maybe as an android hater he couldn´t say/write Sense.

Addition or edition easily work in either instance here if you think about it. Troll harder next time.
55. ILikeBubbles (Posts: 525; Member since: 17 Jan 2011)
I'm pretty sure that Addition or Edition would both make sense. when i think of an "addition" its something that's been added or upgrade. an "edition" makes me think of a "special edition limited-time only" sort of item. im pretty sure they both would have worked in this situation but personally i prefered Addition. ESPECIALLY since every version's icon is "added" to the front of building 504 (404?) i think the grammar is proper. :) nice try though. ^^
20. HTCiscool (Posts: 449; Member since: 16 Jul 2011)
Ok calm down for the spelling mistakes, I'm sorry no need to flay me alive
22. Ray.S (Posts: 288; Member since: 19 Jul 2011)
I do appreciate it! :)
36. wakingup (Posts: 51; Member since: 13 Aug 2011)
Its a great OS update and this was a good review. But there were so many things which wer left out of this article. Face unlock? Wheres that. That is one of the less known highlight features of ICS.
56. ILikeBubbles (Posts: 525; Member since: 17 Jan 2011)
less known? hmm thats the only think i really knew about before this article lol :) i guess they may not have mentioned it was because it was too good and worked off of a picture of the person and not just the face... so secure? yes... but bulletproof.. i don't think so.
61. Larry_ThaGr81 (Posts: 403; Member since: 26 May 2011)
Maybe they're still adding the finishing touches because of the potential security issues that are posed by people simply taking a picture of the individual's face and showing it to the front facing camera.

I like it when they say Android is Maturing as an OS. Well done indeed since it looks very original and distinctive from iOS, Symbian, Bada, WP7 and other OSs.
Imagine what Jellybean to Zebracake will do.

"Samsung's TouchWiz, on the other hand, needs to be both simplified and beautified, as it's still having that iPhone for kids look", I don't think that was neccessary [that sound subjective than objective] #JustA_Thought
13. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
i agree. the personal attack on touchwiz was unessisary. Personally, I like the color coated look of TW, its meant to show off the high saturation of super amoled screens.. and on that, it works quite well. I also prefer it over something like Sense as it takes far less system resources and is much easier to get rid of, if you so desire.

The irony is that the iOS already looks like it's for kids.
43. TalkingTechy (Posts: 97; Member since: 05 Dec 2011)
Yeah, maybe it could have been worded differently, but it's a decent point he makes. For arguably the first time, ICS brings a very attractive UI from stock. With TouchWiz's current offering, it would be a step backward in styling.
7. protozeloz (Posts: 5393; Member since: 16 Sep 2010)
I think ICS looks great, I hope this encourages manufacturers to create app instead of full changes, since most the important stuff is already covered or can be covered from an added app
-Sync tools
-Social network
all those could make apps instead of having something deeply integrated in the OS making it more simple to update and also more secure.
I think The TW UX might have being going almost the right way. but they need to turn everything into an app, this also helps them update single app issues easier (a la android market)

Google. Please let us remove the Google Search bar and use that space for widgets. Why fix something that wasn't broken??
30. ojdidit84 (Posts: 450; Member since: 16 Jul 2011)
Hopefully the Google search bar is still a widget like its always been.
34. networkdood (Posts: 6330; Member since: 31 Mar 2010)
You can remove the Google search bar :
Hit the Menu key while on the homescreen, and navigate to Manage Apps > All > Google Search.
From within the App info screen that follows, select Disable.

At least Touchwiz lets us put all of the apps in the app tray into folders. Having to scroll or swipe through lists is tedious. I can't wait for Touchwiz overlay of ICS.
21. bloodline (Posts: 706; Member since: 01 Dec 2011)
I have had the galaxy nexus for nearly a week now and I can tell you ICS is awsome.
It just looks futuristic, I compared it to my iphone and it just looks so much better and feels so much better. You can just see the quality and diversity google have added and it really does look, feel and is a quality OS.
I give credit to google they done a great job and im looking forward to all the future innovative updates google will bring to ics.
Keep up the good work google
Im curious to see what win8 will bring and Im sure google are to

i love how the same people that are getting worked up over a little personal comment about TW have been bagging on Motorola's interfaces for the past year even though there's really a lot to like about it. i like TW4 a lot and i also like Motorola's UI. when it comes to aesthetic taste i believe we should all be as 100% personal and picky as possible but as far as sucking up CPU neither Motorolas nor Samsungs do that now but i think we can all agree that Sense needs to lighten up...a lot. the reasons i don't want to get a Galaxy Nexus is i don't like it's Build Quality and i want to see what Motorola does with ICS because i bet it's going to be pretty slick.
37. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
KK, i hope they do nothing to ICS and take the opportunity to differentiate themselves by releasing mostly stock handsets and the constant promise of "near nexus speed" updates. Concidering how much we all bitch about everyone's pokey update speeds, that would get them a lot of positive attention. Keep doing the thin kevlar + SA+ screens, a long with that, and its a sure winner. :)
40. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5691; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
i hope they do like what they've done with the XOOM 2 variants and only tweak little things like icons, widgets, the task bar, little things like that. that shouldn't keep up updates real long
44. TalkingTechy (Posts: 97; Member since: 05 Dec 2011)
Agreed remixfa.
DROID RAZR doesn't have SAMOLED '+', its display is SAMOLED "Advanced."

What kind of twit writes this about Android? "From its humble beginnings until today, Android has walked a long and bumpy path, but has eventually become a robust platform, suitable not only for geeks, but regular consumers as well."
It's been a short, smooth road - thanks to rapid adoption by carries and subsequently 'regular consumers', hence now no. 2 in smartphone market share.
Completely f*cking ridiculous.
41. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5691; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
if you're confused by the seemingly contradicting points one refers to the Platforms stability as a Platform and the other is referring to the growth and the adoption of the Platform.
45. kpfirefighter (Posts: 160; Member since: 20 Sep 2011)
There are some things that I don't really like about the new ICS!
The pinch to zoom on a web page is really nice to have when trying to read the fine print so you don't get f**ked all the time!
Then this numb nuts was saying that some apps are having trouble with the new software! I hope they get this s**t figured out!
46. mnave5 (Posts: 1; Member since: 07 Dec 2011)
i dont even understand it
47. jackhammeR (Posts: 1548; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
Come on...android is finally resources effecient?
"everything runs buttery smooth, at least on a high-end phone like the Galaxy Nexus"
So android runs PRETTY smooth on high end but not always on lower models (and I mean 1ghz phones...not wildfire).
At last, android is smooth and fluid! Almost like IOS.
But why so late, why it needs so much powerful hardware? Why even wallpapers can cause lags?
I have a feeling that guys from google have never worked hard enough in optimalization department and resources management.
They don't have to. Manufacturers intruducing new dual/quad/xxx core chipsets almost everyday so they just don't have to.
48. jackhammeR (Posts: 1548; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
I just don't understand why android needs so much power to work properly.
Have you ever considered it?
Dual core! 1 gig of ram! additional GPU! The only thing lacks is some cooling system:]
On paper those phones are more powerful than many computers, laptops, etc.
And they still have problems with some lags and choopines.
I just don't get it.
49. BlazinEmperor (Posts: 35; Member since: 24 Nov 2011)
NO SMARTPHONE IS AS POWERFUL AS A COMPUTER! NOT EVEN A PENTIUM 3 PC! YOU GUYS KNOW LITTLE ABOUT PROCESSORS & R.A.Ms,... THERE'S MUCH MORE TO A CPU THAN IT'S CLOCK SPEED...
51. jackhammeR (Posts: 1548; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
I wrote: "on paper". Read more careful.
My point was to compare pure numbers.
62. OSFantasma (Posts: 119; Member since: 27 Sep 2011)
Agreed.. specially when you factor in the different technologies that go in to the works, e.g. x86, 64 BIT, ARM CORTEX, RAM ETC...
50. BlazinEmperor (Posts: 35; Member since: 24 Nov 2011)
I Prefer Symbian Belle's UI to this default skin for ICS... This looks too basic, I hope OEMs will be allowed to put a customed skin on it.... Android LAGS pretty much on low & mid-range phones, but it goes quite unnoticed on High-End phones unless you're a power user, that's when u'll truly notice it.... But a few seconds of lag won't hurt anyone, so forget about it....
52. jackhammeR (Posts: 1548; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
Yeah, won't hurt anyone but you see. hwen SYmbian has lags is the worst system on the planet. But when android has, it's normal.
53. henrickrw (Posts: 408; Member since: 16 Sep 2011)
You clearly said that if it wasnt for ICS you wouldn't have given the nexus such a high rating. Based on this my petition is to review the international Exynos version of the gs2 with this OS when it's available. You should give it a 10.
54. BskidlyoJo (Posts: 1; Member since: 10 Dec 2011)

57. louay_joumaa (Posts: 18; Member since: 09 Dec 2011)
well done google..but ill stick with my gs2 4 now ;) hoping they gonna fix those widgets in the new touchwiz UI :)

I think the Ollie Pop is more for beginner-intermediate riders, so you'd probably be happier on a different deck.
I loved my B-street: very soft, but could still handle the mountain. However, it is pretty unstable in choppy conditions. I prefer my Pandora because it is just as soft, but still suitable for all-mountain riding (better camber style and a damper ride).
I've heard good things about both the Park Pickle and the Blender, but I've never tried either of them.
For something with more pop: the Burton Lipstick, the Roxy Eminence, or the Arbor Cadence.
I ride a board i bought from my cousin a few years back. Its a lesser known brand and its pretty much just an all mountain board. I've been using my friend's board to ride park. I need to step up my set up and I feel more than comfortable investing in the better boards with the experience I;ve gained in the past few seasons.
I ride East Coast, so we often have ice or hard packed conditions and a lot of man-made snow. I only see powder like twice a year so the board needs to be able to put up a fight in east coast conditions. How well does the Pandora butter/press? My free style riding is mainly rails boxes and medium jumps. I don't ride pipe so I'm not looking for something stiff like a pipe board, but like I said, east coast weather here.
Its hard finding that playful park board that can still put up when it comes to stability. I'm not really looking for anything as still as the lipstick or eminence. I read a short buyer-review from an east-coaster who said the B-street was fine for handling east coast terrain but I don't trust everything I read. You said you have experience on both boards and I do like that dampening in the pandora, many people say it brings alot to the board. Also: doesn't the magne traction on the b-street help out the stability? I would think that might help out a ton on the ice while still keeping it buttery soft in the park.

FILE - In a Tuesday, Oct 7, 2008 file photo, men fish from the exposed shore at Lake Lanier in Buford, Ga. Lake Lanier is the main source of water for Atlanta. A Friday, July 17, 2009 ruling by U.S. District Court Judge Paul Magnuson found that nearly all of Georgia's withdrawals from Lake Lanier, a massive federal reservoir north of Atlanta, are illegal because the lake wasn't built for water supply. The ruling has left Peach State leaders racing against the clock to avoid a potentially dire water shortage in the South's largest urban area. (AP Photo/Greg Bluestein, File)
ATLANTA (AP) - Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue is meeting with the
state's congressional delegation to discuss a response to a federal
court ruling that could restrict metro Atlanta from its main water
Perdue joined Georgia's delegation Monday to discuss the July ruling that found the state has little legal rights to Lake Lanier, a federal reservoir that supplies more than 3 million metro Atlanta residents.
The judge said most of the withdrawals would end in three years
unless Congress approved a settlement.
Perdue has said he wants to "nationalize" the issue and has
encouraged lawmakers to draft legislation to address the
three-state tug-of-war over water rights.
But some senior lawmakers have said they want the leaders of
Georgia, Florida and Alabama to hash it out themselves.

SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) - Actor Val Kilmer has sold the bulk of his 5,300-acre ranch in northwest New Mexico to a Texas oil and gas executive and his wife for $18.5 million.
The Santa Fe New Mexican (http://bit.ly/nEgGYn) reports the deed transfer filed Sept. 30 with the San Miguel County Clerk's Office indicates Kilmer sold all but 141 acres to Benjamin A. Strickling III and his wife, Roxann.
Santa Fe attorney Ralph H. Scheuer handled the agreement for Kilmer and declined to comment on whether the star whose movies
include "Tombstone," "Top Gun" and "The Doors" would keep a home in northern New Mexico.
The ranch originally was put on the market in 2009 for $33 million.

Appearance and self esteem below average from breast cancer treatmentSave as Favorite
Good Day, I have been employed within business office field for over twenty years. 2011 was certified and employed for Home Health Aide position until diagnose of breast cancer April 2013. Agency kind to allow me work in office during most treatment, however, immediately following final radiation treatment supervisor demand return to field work. My hair in process of return, appearance is awkward. Therapy to strengthen side of surgeries in process and experience side affects from Tamoxifen. Our family financial status from this illness is poverty. Is there any form of referral to employers who will give me the opportunity of gainful employment? Most people continue to stare or stereotype my appearance, in addition, I am desperately trying to improve strength and stamina to work eight hours a day including practice to restore my brain ability. Please contact me with any information that may improve the chances of a positive response from prospective employer. Thank you very much for your time, is greatly appreciated. Kindest regards, Kelley Doepel (at the time employer learns of cancer treatment, appears automatic concern that I may lose time from work for doctor appointments, illness return, questionable of ability to think and perform duties, etc.) Yes, there are abundance of people ignorant to actual process. Help. Should I indicate illness at all on resume?

Career Coach Comment:
Dear Kelley,
I am terribly sorry that you are having such a difficult time. As I understand from your question, your immediate and dire need is to find a job. I agree with Sarah that finding a flexible or part-time job is probably the best idea for you given your stamina level and chemo brain symptoms. One idea is to become a mystery shopper. There is an organization called Retail Active - http://www.retailactive.com/ They pay $250 per assignment and reimburse expenses. I would also do a search for stay at home work. There are many reputable sites.
Putting this type of work aside, most jobs are found through networking. I realize that your self esteem is low however I highly recommend that you do whatever you can do to build a network to uncover job opportunities. There are free networking groups for unemployed people across the United States that are sponsored by local churches and synagogues. These are a safe place to commiserate with people, develop new relationships with professionals, and uncover job leads.
Finally, it is unfortunate that people make judgments about things they don't understand such as illness. But the truth is that sometimes you cannot do anything about their negative reactions so it's best to find people who will respond positively and compassionately to you. At Cancer and Careers, we always advise people to focus on their strengths and past accomplishments when talking to people while networking or interviewing for a job. While mentioning the fact that you have had cancer is certainly your choice, it isn't what I recommend in your situation.
I wish you much good luck in finding a job.
Take care,
Sarah Goodell on Jan 22, 2014
