More Reviews
In my little library of yaoi, this one is in the first row. It's composed of more then one story actually. The first one was brilliantly done, bringing to life the story of how twins can be so alike, yet so different. The others are also very well done. The more humorous one is about a boy name snow white (sorta). After that comes the cryptic, yet beautiful story of a reporter trying to find the truth behind the life of a mysterious painter. Finally, the story of the god of death is slightly.... odd. While it is still a wonderful story, it has a different.... presence, if you know what i mean. I HIGHLY recommend this books to new fans, as well as the yaoi veterans.

Meet Hunter!
Shelter workers say he is a surrender and is about 3-years-old.
He is a large Boxer mix.
Hunter gets along with other pets, but is very strong and would probably be best for a family without small children.
He's very lovable and likes to play!
We're told he's potty trained and leash trained.

I like it!
Interested to discuss more about having multiple people in each role, and simple consensus-based decision making among teams.
Otherwise, I think this is ready to pass.
RE: Editorial Workflow Diagram - Added by Pea Lutz almost 4 years ago
The idea is that each role could have as many people in it that we need.

UPDATE: Looks like the computer crushed Jennings last night. Tune in this evening to see how our local Jeopardy! champ fairs in round two!
Local "Jeopardy!" celebrity Ken Jennings has returned to face his most intimidating opponent to date: a supercomputer. In a special three day tournament, Jennings, along with fellow champion Brad Rutter, will go head to man-made head against Watson, the IBM machine named after its founder that has been four years in the making. In terms of credentials, Edmonds-born Jennings (who made our Nerd Hall of Fame) has a lot to offer: he holds the trivia game show's records for longest winning streak (74 games in 2004) and highest total winnings in non-tournament play (roughly $2.5 million). Watson, however, is loaded with thousands of algorithms that analyze possible interpretations of a clue against its mega-database, the equivalent of about 1 million books. It also has the advantage of "pushing" the buzzer quicker than is humanly possible once it has processed the clue (a 3 second task). The match is hyped to be extremely close, so tune in to cheer for our species (or to be wowed by the rise of A.I.) on February 14-16 on KOMO 4 at 7:30 p.m. In addition to the stakes of humankind's superior status, the grand prize is $1 million, half of which Jennings has promised to donate to Fremont-based charity VillageReach.
To dig deeper into Seattle's nerd subculture, check out our local geek varietals as part of our current Nerd Issue; or if you're keen on the story behind IBM's quest to build the world's smartest computer, check out NOVA's documentary or technology writer Stephen Baker's new book Final Jeopardy: Man vs. Machine and the Quest to Know Everything.

Chuck Hudson, Adjunct Faculty Artist: Period, Style, Movement and Molière Texts
Based in New York City, Chuck Hudson has directed opera productions at major regional companies including Minnesota Opera, Seattle Opera, San Francisco Opera Center, Wolf Trap Opera, Santa Fe Opera, Florida Grand Opera, AVA Opera Theatre, and Manhattan School of Music Opera Theater. He has directed award-winning theatre productions in New York and regionally, including The Pearl Theatre (receiving a Callaway Award from Actor's Equity Association), The Children's Theatre Festival of Houston, New City Theatre, and Chicago's Fox Valley Shakespeare Festival. He has also served as movement and combat director at the Alley Theatre, Houston Ballet, Intiman Theatre, Pacific Northwest Ballet, Seattle Opera, Group Theatre, and Seattle Shakespeare Festival. His original opera-theatre works, La Casa Verdi and Orpheus Sings of Love, have both been performed on the West Coast. Hudson was artistic director of Seattle's The Immediate Theatre, a physically based company committed to the creation of visually exciting dramatic works. His specialty in movement comes from a background in gymnastics as well as being one of three Americans to have received a diploma from the Marcel Marceau International School of Mimedrama in Paris. The only American to be appointed to teach at Marceau's School, he performed with Marceau on his 1991 European Tour and in Klaus Kinski's film PAGANINI. Hudson also studied at the Paris School for Theatrical Fencing and was awarded an Honorary Diploma from the French Academy of Arms. Acting roles include Orsino in "Twelfth Night," Brutus in "Julius Caesar," Petruchio in "Taming of the Shrew," and Caliban in "The Tempest." In addition to directing, Hudson continues to focus on his work with young professional artists. He is a co-creator of Seattle Opera's Young Artist Program, a national post-conservatory-level training program, where he created and instructed specialized classes on acting and movement for singers, and where he directed Così fan tutte and The Marriage of Figaro. He has been a professor at the University of Houston School of Theatre, Cornish College of the Arts, AVA Opera Theatre and USC-Thornton School of Music.

I want the people of Minnesota to know I'm an easy-going guy, a fun guy. I love to have fun, but when I step on the court it's time to take care of business.
I'm a winner. I want to win. I love to win.
I'm in a real bad mood after a loss.
I was born to play this game.
K.G. has set a lot of examples for the young guys. To be in the same sentence with Kevin Garnett is a compliment for me.
If I had a time machine, I'd want to go back to when there were dinosaurs. I'd love to see dinosaurs.
As a kid, my favorite cartoon character was Garfield. I liked how he ate up everything in the house. I was kind of like that.
If I could have any superhero's superpowers, I'd want to be like Superman. He had everything I'd want. He could fly. He was fast. He could do it all.
When I was in high school, I only played basketball.
What would I be doing if I wasn't playing basketball? That's a good question. I don't know. I'd probably be doing something in my hometown (Prentiss, Miss.).
Both of my grandmothers have had the biggest influence on my life. They always kept me on the right track.
When I was a kid, I wanted to grow up to be a basketball player.
The worst thing I did as a kid? I was in a store with my aunt when I was 6, and I took a Ninja turtle. I got out the door and my aunt saw it, and she threw me back in the store. She embarrassed me. She made me give it back.
The best day of my life was the day I got drafted in 2004.
It takes a lot to get me mad. I guess losing makes me mad.
When my career is over, it's important for me to be known as a great player.
Coming from Mississippi, people always say, "Mississippi is known for football." To come and play this game and be known as a great basketball player, a hall of famer maybe, it could open doors for a lot of other young guys from Mississippi.
I love to go fishing. I heard Minnesota is a good place for fishing. Walleye? I've never fished for walleye. I just fish for anything that feels like biting.
My proudest moment as an athlete was when I hit the game-winning shot against Miami in the second-to-last game of the year this past season. It was a jump hook off the block for game point.
The first thing I purchased after I signed my first contract was a car for my mother. I gave her a Chrysler 300.
I'd want my last meal to be fried chicken, candied yams, collard greens and cornbread. Sweet potato pie, too. I'd wash it down with water.
My teammates would be surprised to know that I took a class online last year from Michigan State. The class was "Decision-Making and Finance." Does that mean I'll represent myself as an agent? One day, maybe.
I don't cook.
A good movie makes me laugh.
My favorite movie is "Liar, Liar."
Music? I like RB and hip-hop. My favorite RB artist is R. Kelly. Hip-hop? I'm a big Eminem fan.
I love to sing, but I can't. If Simon Cowell heard me sing, he'd probably boo me.
I never miss "Martin" when it's on TV. Can't miss "Martin," man. I have "Martin" DVDs, but I don't watch them because the show comes on three times a day on TV.
My favorite actor is Will Ferrell. Oh, man, he's sick. He's crazy.
I'm not married. I'm a single guy. Do the women in Minnesota need to know that? No. I need to stay focused.
If I could change one thing about my life, I wish I could go back to the ninth grade and work even harder on my game than I did. I feel I'd be 10 times better than I am now if I really took it seriously in ninth grade. I'd like to go back with the mind I have now and do it over.
The best advice I ever got was to believe in yourself because no one knows better than you what you can do.
The worst advice I ever got was to be selfish. I was told to go out there and be selfish. I'm not going to say names and tell you who gave me that advice. Worst advice I ever got.
Who would I want to trade places with for a day? You want the truth? I'd want to trade places with the guy from the Playboy Mansion. Hugh Hefner. I'd like to be him for 24 hours.
I want my epitaph to say, "Here lies Al Jefferson, who was a hall of famer in the NBA."

text: Black circles represent the approximate location and magnitude of morbidity and mortality, and satellite data represent the red tide for panels (A–C). Three pulses of seabird stranding were observed: A) focused along the northern bay, B) focused in the southcentral portion of the bay, and C) in both northern and central portions of the bay. In (A) and (B) the MERIS data indicate extreme bloom conditions above MCI level of ,0.3. Although ideal for red tide detection, MERIS coverage was not adequate for the third pulse. In (C) the reddish discoloration on the MODIS true color image during the third pulse (28 Nov) shows the spatial extent and location of the red tide. Panels (D) and (E) show increased seabird stranding during the November–December 2007 red tide event. Light bars are 10-year average (1997–2006) standardized monthly stranding counts on nine Monterey Bay beaches. Dark bars are 2007 counts for western/Clark's grebes and Northern fulmar, the species most affected during the mass-stranding event. Panel (D) corresponds to the first stranding event, while panel (E) corresponds to the second and third waves of strandings.

With a total diversity of scenery and cultures, depending, on the region, multi centre touring options within Thailand are popular. There are excellent air links between most of the major cities, as well as good roads. The following are just a few ideas and each can be easily modified to suit your personal requirements.
The most popular combination. The bustle and instant excitement of Bangkok, the eco adventure of Chiang Rai in the Golden Triangle, the temples and the exciting night markets in Chiang Mai, and then end with a few nights, or more at one of the beach resorts (Phuket is best in our winter, Samui in our summer, whilst both Hua Hin and Koh Samet have more consistent year round climates).
You start in Bangkok, where you have a full day of sightseeing including the Grand Palace and the famous floating market. You then fly up to Chiang Rai, in the Golden Triangle, with your hotel located facing both Myanmar and Laos. A day and half of sightseeing, including the three countries in one day tour, and half day to see some of the more hill tribes. We have left time for you to spend some time with the elephants, who have a separate compound within your hotel. You then continue by road over the high mountain pass, incredibly scenic with more opportunities to see the various hill tribes before arriving in Chiang Mai. A long 7 hour drive but highly recommended.
A half tour of the city, including the ornate Du Suthep temple with superb views of the city. Time at leisure for exploring this busy but totally charming riverside city. Remember to visit the night market, even if you do not buy anything, an interesting experience.
You then fly to your beach for a few days of total relaxation. There are direct flights from Chiang Mai to Samui and Phuket, via Bangkok to Krabi. For Koh Samet and Hua Hin you fly to Bangkok and then road transfer.
Suggested hotels on tour – Vie, Bangkok – Anantara, Chiang Rai – U Hotel Chiang Mai.
As the tour is operated on a private basis, with driver and guide in each place, departures are daily, with timings modified day by day to suit your convenience.
An extremely interesting tour, with a combination of known and established points of interest and several areas that are emerging but still have a truly authentic flavour.
You start your journey in Bangkok with 2 nights.A full day of sightseeing including the floating market and Grand Palace, and a short trip of Bangkok's intricate system of klongs (water ways).
Leave Bangkok and head west, changing the city suburbs for the totally rural countryside that surrounds the provincial city of Kanchanaburi (80 miles from Bangkok), the base for visiting the River Kwai, including the infamous Death Railway built by British and Australian prisoners during World War Two. Ride on the railway. Overnight in a Kanchaanaburi city U hotel or for something really different, stay on a simple Raft style Lodge on the river for 2 nights for something highly original.
Continue by road to Ayutthaya, the former capital of Siam, the original name of Thailand. Known for its beautiful temples dating back hundreds of years, with a tranquil riverside location. Continue by road to Sukhothai, the capital of Siam in the 13th century and known as The Dawn of Happiness. Travel outside the city to the park of Si Satchanalai where you will find incredible statues, probably the most interesting within Thailand. You can either walk or take a bicycle. Overnight in one of Sukhothai's charming boutique hotels.
Continue by air on the short flight to Chiang Mai, where you will be based for 3 nights. On the 2nd day a full day tour will be arranged to included the city and temples, and in the afternoon the opportunity for elephant trekking or river rafting.
You then have the option of travel further north to the Golden Triangle region (we particularly suggest the idea of a few hours on the river before continuing by road) or you can fly south to one of the beach resorts.
Suggested hotels – Vie – Bangkok Royal U Hotel River Kwai Resort Sukhothai Heritage – Sukhothai U Hotel – Chiang Mai.
A chance to visit three island resorts in the Andaman Sea, with travel between the resorts by speedboat. Each island or resort is totally different, yet there is a constant theme of escapism. Our suggestion would be to fly from Bangkok to Phuket, transfer by road from the north to the port jetty in the south and continue by speedboat to The Racha Resort.
After 5 nights return to Phuket with road transfer to the jetty on the east coast for the 40 minute speedboat transfer to Phi Phi.
You have a choice of either continuing by speedboat to Krabi (30 minutes) or on the Koh Lanta (50 minutes). You then fly back direct to Bangkok from Krabi.

Truth covered up in JFK assassination
Re: 5 decades later, some JFK files remain sealed. Daily Times, Aug. 18, 2013
Last Sundays edition of The Daily Times contains another AP story that reinforces the tired old canard that Lee Harvey Oswald, the designated patsy and FBI informant, really did it killed President Kennedy. Thats despite a mountain of evidence that he did not, could not, have done it.
There were many people in both Dallas and Washington with motive, means and opportunity to kill the dangerous charismatic leader who had, midway through his first term as president, turned shockingly toward a path that would likely have led to an end to the Cold War and a pullout of U.S. advisers from Vietnam.
The evidence for these claims has been accumulating steadily under the scholarship and research of a number of citizen-scholars who have grown gray patiently tracking down the truth with no help, and despite active interference from, a large number of disinformation agents.
I was 21 years old when John Kennedy died, and 26 when his brother Robert met death under equally suspicious circumstances. Dare to point out the absurdity of the official line on these and you will be pilloried as a conspiracy theorist. It seems we tolerate anything but the awful truth.

10 cars women love
Regardless of which direction the war of the sexes is leaning, one thing is certain: A gender gap still exists between women and men when it comes to buying a new car.
According to the third annual gender and car buying study by TrueCar.com, the brand with the highest percentage of retail sales to women in 2011 continues to be Mini (46.2 percent), followed by Nissan (45.7 percent), and Kia (45.6 percent) compared to 2010 when Mini (47.9 percent) came in first, followed by Kia and Honda respectively (46.8 percent and 46.0 percent). On the flip side, 13 of the top 20 brands in 2011 with the highest percentage of male buyers were either exotic or luxury brands.
While the stereotype for men and women in relationships tells us that men lead with their head and women with their hearts, the opposite can be said of their decision-making at the car dealership. According to the results, female car buyers really gravitated toward practical cars; smaller, more fuel-efficient cars while it was male buyers, who preferred either a fast, sporty vehicle or more heavy-duty vehicle, like a large truck or SUV, basing their decision more on aesthetics than substance.
So what new cars are women buying? Let's take a look!
Volvo S40
Starting Price: $27,750
Percentage of female buyers: 57.9%
Promoted by Volvo as the "Fuel Efficient Sedan," is it any wonder that women were attracted to the well-priced S40, which retailed for about $27,750 and offered great fuel economy of 21 mpg city, 30 highway, and a combined 24 mpg? Sadly, the Volvo S40 was discontinued for the US market after the 2011 model year, but if you just gotta have this fun to drive, sport sedan we suggest you take a look at the 2012 Volvo S60 instead.
Nissan Rogue
Starting Price: $23,915
Percentage of female buyers: 56.9%
The first of three Nissan vehicles in this list, the Rogue packages a flexible interior offering room for five passengers or up to 57.9 cubic feet of cargo capacity. The small crossover SUV also boasts fuel economy of 23 mpg city, 28 highway, and 25 mpg combined, making it appealing to the woman who needs to carry kids and their gear while also offering an affordable starting price and fuel budget.
Volkswagen Eos
Starting Price: $34,350
Percentage of female buyers: 56.4%

Both of my children have attended Mountain Island Elementary. My daughter is currently there. I have only praise for this school's faculty staff and parents. The atmosphere is one of community with everyone working together to ensure a positive learning environment for the children. The recent move to a STEM focus has been an added bonus to an already strong curriculum and emphasis on reading the arts and academic experiential exposure. Parental involvement is high as evidenced by the high turnout in student productions STEM night school picnics and other activities. One of MIE's strengths is its diversity. All families irrespective of socioeconomic or ethnic background work together to make this school a success. The SLT (School Leadership Team) which is a cross section of school administrators parents and teachers work very closely to bring the most innovative learning tools and programs to the school well in advance of many of its counterparts. Its PTA is nationally recognized. My children have received an excellent education at Mountain Island Elementary. I highly recommend this school to other families seeking a quality education for their children.

One of the first counties in Minnesota to adopt a wheelage tax, Anoka County might also have the distinction of being the first to repeal it.
The 2013 Legislature authorized all of the state's 87 counties to impose the tax, which is tacked onto vehicle registration costs and goes toward road-maintenance projects within the counties. Currently set at $5, the tax will increase to $10 in January.
Although Ramsey and Hennepin counties recently adopted the user tax, Anoka, which raises about $1.3 million a year from it, seems poised to eliminate the tax.
The Anoka County Public Works Committee made the recommendation at its July 15 meeting.
County Commissioner Matt Look said he resents the mandatory tax level of $10 imposed by the state.
"The reality is, we probably would have left it alone at $5, but the state comes along and tells us it has to be 10 bucks," he said. "It begs the question, why didn't they start at $5? Why didn't they call us and ask what we thought, instead of putting a 100 percent increase on people who are struggling now?"
Commissioner Jim Kordiak said he'd speak against repealing the tax ahead of the vote.
"It's a perfect example of a user tax. And I can't think of any better person to look to for roadway improvements than users," he said.
Board Chairwoman Rhonda Sivarajah said the county will keep transportation spending a priority despite the potential loss of revenue.
"We typically spend $8 million a year on maintenance, and that will absolutely continue," she said.
Anoka County, along with Carver, Dakota, Scott and Washington counties, has had the $5 tax in place for several years.
Under state statute, the tax can be increased to up to $20 in 2018.
The Anoka County board will meet at 9:30 a.m. Thursday at the Government Center to take up the issue.

Message for U.S. Citizens
Warden Message - Violence in Mazabuka and Mpulungu / By-Elections in Mporokoso
March 02, 2011
The police have restricted travel to and within the town of Mazabuka (on the road between Lusaka and Livingstone) due to violent civil unrest, including road blockages.

Fashion Law and Finance
Product design, manufacture, distribution, and sales within the fashion industry are engaged in on a global level. In order to fully and effectively manage a fashion company, it is necessary to implement a multinational strategy and to take advantage of the growing market. This course intends to introduce many of the aspects of finance and taxation that both affect and influence the fashion industry. The course will offer an introduction to subjects including corporations, federal taxation and international law all while exploring their unique effects on the fashion industry. During the course of the semester, outside speakers may be brought in to relate their experiences in the industry and elaborate on topics we discuss in class. Students do not need a background in finance or taxation as a prerequisite to taking this course and are encouraged to enroll so as to expand their knowledge of the fashion industry.
We will begin by creating a hypothetical case study of a small fashion company which wants to expand. Initially it will need financing to get off the ground. Many years later it will be a global conglomerate. The course will walk through the evolutionary stages of a global fashion house. Class attendance and preparation. Active class participation is strongly encouraged. Readings will be assigned weekly and you are expected to bring the assigned course materials to class. Your grade in this course will be predominantly evaluated based on a double spaced paper (25 pages) to be submitted at the end of the semester on a topic or combination of topics to be selected by you (after discussion). Class participation is also important.Credits: 2

NEW YORK (AP) - The price of oil is higher on word that China's manufacturing sector grew last month for the first time in more than a year.
Benchmark crude rose 93 cents to $89.84 per barrel in morning trading in New York. Earlier, oil topped $90 for the first time since Oct. 22.
An index measuring manufacturing in China showed expansion in November for the first time in 13 months. China is the world's second-largest economy after the U.S. and a huge consumer of oil. A better economy there suggests that energy consumption is likely to grow, pushing oil prices higher.
Also Monday, Greece revealed plans to spend up to $13 billion in a bond buyback program it hopes will help stabilize its mountainous debt.

Low Profile Boots for NX2-SE Bindings
Just got a new pair of Flow NX2-SE bindings and I am having difficulty getting into the bindings because the back of the boot is rubbing up against the high back. I am hoping that getting a low profile boot, will help get into these new bindings.
Do flow boots work better with flow bindings? Or does anyone recommend any low profile boots? Thanks!

vans cirro
52 Attachment(s)
Tried on some vans cirros while I was in colorado this past weekend. I really like the fit and am thinking about ordering them online now. My only issue is that I know the back little fabric hook thing on the boot won't fit well with my cartel bindings. Would it be ok to cut or tear the thing off the boot?
We've had this question before I'm pretty sure.... The answer is to buy Union Force bindings
No I'm kidding.. Your talking about the hook of fabric to help you pull the boots on?
52 Attachment(s)
Yeah, it seems pretty useless. I don't see me ever using it, I am wondering if I could just take scissors and cut both sides of it?
it fits fine. if you choose to cut it- you can attach the safety to the strap on the back of the liner

Today at Baidu World, CEO and co-founder of Chinese search giant Baidu, Robin Li, announced a hugely revamped version of its mobile browser, available on Android, Windows Phone 7, and Symbian, both in Chinese and English. This announcement has also practically killed off the rumors that Baidu is considering an acquisition of UCweb, the company behind UC Browser, China's most widely-used mobile browser at the moment. Clearly, Baidu is thinking that it can beat its rival without a costly acquisition.
But the last time we looked at mobile browsers and their share of web hits in China (to Baidu domains, in fact), UC Browser was the market leader with 30.3 percent share; rival Tencent had 19 percent. Embarrassingly for Baidu, its own earlier effort didn't even register with a number, so it was clearly failing. That perhaps explains why Baidu is pretty much starting from scratch with this app.
Baidu (NASDAQ:BIDU) has a PC-based browser which was launched last year. The search giant also has a mobile cloud OS, based on Android. On top of all that, a browser is a good way of keeping people in your own ecosystem. Here are five unique things about Baidu's relaunched mobile browser:
1. Look and Feel
Let's start with its design. We got a chance to test the browser and I thought the user experience is pretty standard, just like most browsers. It has a grid of icons layout which allows users to bookmark their favorite pages or web apps on the browser homescreen (see the top image). But following this standard isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's pretty easy to tune into and learn how to use it.
2. T5 Technology = HTML5
Baidu browser prides itself on its own so-called T5 technology. 'T' stands for Taikonaut and '5' stands for HTML5. In laymen's terms, Baidu claims that T5 provides a faster and better looking browsing experience through its HTML5 optimization conforming to web standards. The company also claims it has the highest HTML5 test score (482) among other mobile browsers (via html5test.com):
(Note: From Html5test.com: "The HTML5 test score is an indication of how well your browser supports the upcoming HTML5 standard and related specifications." Maximum score is 500).
Baidu's mobile browser with T5 is also WebGL compatible which allows 3D graphics rendering on the the web page canvas itself without the use of any plug-ins. It also supports WebSocket which reduces needless data flow and thus reduces page load times. The Baidu mobile browser also embraces Web Worker which allows long background tasks to load without interrupting the front-end user interface. The new app also comes with a web notification API which allows developers to send notifications just like a native app does. The T5 engine can be switched off but I'm not sure why anyone would want to do that unless it eats up a lot of battery life.
3. Flash, Games, Apps, Cloud
Baidu browser isn't on iOS – so yes, it comes with Adobe Flash support, which will be a relief to developers of Flash-based games. And Baidu ensures that with its T5 technology that comes with WebGL and faster load speeds, developers are able to build better games with better web-standard technologies.
To date, Baidu says that there are over 100,000 web and mobile apps built by third-party developers for its PC browser so far. But the company isn't able to tell us how many of these 100,000 apps are mobile compatible. Baidu also has a fund to encourage more developers to build apps on its platform. It says that there isn't a fixed amount to provide to developers and each funding is provided on a case-by-case basis. Developers will also be able to use up to 100GB of Baidu cloud storage to host their apps and databases.
4. Web App, Native App
Web app or native app? For the average user, things can get a bit confusing on the new Baidu mobile browser. When you download an app, you can choose to either save it under Baidu mobile browser or to download it as a native app (assuming the developer provided both). Why is Baidu doing this? More later in the day as my thoughts settle on this browser
5. Search
The default search engine for Baidu's mobile browser is — surprise, surprise — Baidu. It doesn't allow users to change search engines, and I find that a little disappointing. It will be okay for Chinese users since Baidu is preferred here. But for international users, searching on Baidu surely isn't ideal. Baidu also mentioned that it will give search ranking preference to websites which have mobile sites. Below the URL bar, users can also view trending searches which can be refreshed with a shake of their device. Baidu also allows voice search which is surprisingly quite accurate as I did a couple of search tests with some popular local services, like "Tudou" and, uh, "Qihoo 360."
All in all, the Baidu mobile browser feels pretty neat now, and finally feels like a powerful tool. I can see it getting a decent share in the already tightly-squeezed Chinese mobile browser space — up against QQ Browser, UCweb, Oupeng (Opera's specialized browser for China), Maxthon, and many more. The three Chinese-made ones are pushing overseas, and UCweb is already doing well outside of China. But Baidu's effort is perhaps not quite ready for the international market which generally demands way more mobile browsing options, such as the option to choose Google or Bing for search if you prefer. Yes, that may not necessarily be better in terms of speed or continuity, but surely better for it in the long-run in terms of brand recognition and gaining a share of the mobile browser market.

Fitbit Force vs Jawbone UP 24 vs Nike Fuelband SE vs Pebble
Hey there! I was planning to buy one of the fitness tracking bracelets, but I am confused regarding which one to buy. For me the obvious comparison is between jawbone up 24 and the Fitbit force. This is because the Fuelband doesn't track sleep patterns. But then I thought about the pebble smart watch. While it may not be that comprehensive in fitness, it's amazing overall, and I can still use it for logging miles using runkeeper. So, which one should I buy. Here's my list of pros and cons for...

Poor Pedometer
The Force--at least mine--has one really bizarre flaw in it's step counting behavior. It is so illogical that I have run several serious experiments to confirm that it is true. While my Force does a great job of counting my steps when I shamble around at 3 mph as well as when I jog, it's ability to perform this most basic function falls apart when I walk at speeds approaching 4 mph. At that speed, the Force under-counts my steps by 30%-40%. I've verified this by counting steps in my head, by... Read more →

What apps and devices are you using to get healthy?
The new year was the impetus I needed to think seriously about getting healthy. So I bought a Fitbit Force, started tracking nutrition on Lose it app again, bought the premium version of Fitstar (my favorite app right now) and have them all connected so I don't permanently have my face buried in my phone logging activity, sleep, hydration, nutrition and workouts. I have a Garmin Forerunner 305 which I use for more accurate heart rate, calories burned and mileage data for my workouts (connected... Read more →

Problem with Fitbit Force
Is anyone having a problem with their fitbit force. I traded my Fitbit Flex in for a Ftibit Force. After wearing my Force for a week, my husband noticed a large red spot on my wrist. It looks like a burn. Very red with lots of tiny blisters. My Force never produced any heat. I am wondering if it is a battery burn? Anyone experience this problem?
Differences between the Flex and Force
The Force supports the ability to tell when a person is climbing stairs, which the flex does not. It also according to the Gizmodo review, is leveraging a much more accurate activity/motion tracker than the flex.

Speaking specifically, doctors and nurses claim that gout is caused by hyperurecemia, an increased level of uric acid in the bloodstream due to the body's inability to dispose of this acid. Often simply when you think you have gout, you have something else rather.
Pseudo-gout: When Gout Isn't Gout
Gout and pseudo-gout both have the exact same signs of swelling, inflammation, aching, and loss of array of motion but the resemblance stops there. While gout is triggered by crystallization of uric acid in the joints, pseudo-gout is triggered by the calcification of the joints. These two conditions appear extremely different when fluid is extracted from the joint and looked at under a microscope. The source of the pain is various. While gout may be contrasted to attempting to walk with shards of glass in your feet, the discomfort caused by pseudo-gout originates from the body's natural attempts to shield itself. By sending unique cells called neutrophils to damage the affected location, the body additionally destroys a few of the live tissue bordering it, causing discomfort and swelling.
Real gout: Not simply in the toes
Gout, if enabled to go neglected, might begin to trigger pain in various other parts of the body. Contrary to most individuals's understanding of this ailment, gout is not limited entirely to the joint of the big toe. Ultimately, if gout continues to go ignored, crystallization of uric acid could possibly spread to the essential organs, influencing basic jobs such as digestion and urination.
Be sure to see your physician frequently and have actually medical appointments done yearly, specifically if you are above the age of forty. Being prepared against the agony of gout is your finest defense.
To summarize, it can be said that gout is triggered by crystallization of uric acid in the joints, pseudo-gout is triggered by the calcification of the joints. Eventually, if gout continues to go ignored, crystallization of uric acid could spread to the essential organs, influencing basic jobs such as food digestion and urination. So it's recommended to seek help from the doctors as soon possible.

Welcome to St Michaels Workington's website from all the team here at St Michaels.
St Michaels is the Parish Church of Workington and the site of our church has been a place of worship since the twelfth century. In fact, evidence exists that this may have been a place of worship as long ago as the sixth century.
Such is the history associated with the site that an archaeological dig took place after the fire in 1994. We are currently working with English Heritage North West and Cumbria's Archaeological department, detailing all the items of interest.
Should you decide having enjoyed our website to pay us a visit or attend one of the many different services, you will receive not only a true West Cumbrian open hearted and warm welcome, but also a physically warm welcome. Since the rebuild of St Michaels we now have the luxury of under floor heating! This means that we have probably the warmest church in the Diocese if not the country. So come along and enjoy the warmth of the building, the warmth of the people and especially the warmth of the worship.

Married With Zombies was such a fun read. David and Sarah are in marriage counseling and it doesn't seem to be getting any better. But when they work together to silence their now zombie therapist, their marriage starts to mend. It is strange how zombies might actually make them appreciate each other and keep them together.
I'm going pretty Old School. Yes, I owned this one on 8-track.
Bonus: I love Whitesnake. Here I Go Again reminds me of high school freshmen year. So I totally had David's back in this little spat.
Jesus David, f*@^!ing Whitesnake," I snapped as I turned in my seat to glare at him. "Who listens to that eighties-butt-rock shit anymore, let alone buys it in CD format? You realize you actually had to go out into the world and spend money on this, right?

I have just started to move from beer to whiskey and I am enjoying it. Need some help though. Want to know what to try next. So outside of some JD and Jameson in college, until six months ago whiskey was new to me. I got started on the Macallan 12. I liked it a lot. But I realized it was a bit out my price range. Next I had a bottle of Crown Royal at my house that someone gave me a long time ago and I had never opened. I tried it, and it was ok. I wanted more and began to realize that bourbon might be my next step. I was able to pick-up a bottle of Woodford Resevre for only $23 in Chicago. I tried and liked it a great deal, very complex. I began to read more on Bourbon, and read a great deal about the Buffalo Trace lines. Which lead me to Elmer T. Lee Single Barrel. This was my favorite. Loved it. In trying to discover what I liked and didn't like I next tried Bushmill's Irish. This was ok, smooth, and sparked me enough to prehaps want to try some of the others in the Bushmills line. Last I have tried George A. Dickels no. 12. I liked this very much as well. Could see this being an everyday drinker.
So now I'm looking for help on where to go next. Also spending more then 34 or 35 dollars for a bottle would be a lot for me. Where else should I go in the Buffalo Trace line? What other bourbons are there to try for someone new. Thanks.

This story has been reproduced from today's media. It does not necessarily represent the position of Liverpool Football Club.
Inter Milan boss Andrea Stramaccioni says Holland star Wesley Sneijder, who has been linked with Liverpool, is on the verge of completing a move to Galatasaray.
The San Siro side accepted a bid from the Turkish team last week as they look to end his spell in Italy.
However, the 28-year-old has yet to sign terms with Galatasaray, with some suggesting he is waiting to see whether any English teams make him a last-ditch offer.
Both Manchester clubs have tracked the former Real Madrid in recent seasons, while both Tottenham and Liverpool have monitored him too.
But Stramaccioni is confident Sneijder will be on his way to Turkey very soon.
"I believe that we are now in the home stretch," he told Sky Sport 24.
"From my point of view as the Inter coach it is better for everyone if he moves on. Our transfer dealings depend on his sale."

Chapter 15: Electric Circuits: Capacitors
The Big Idea
When current flows through wires and resistors in a circuit as a result of a difference in electric potential, charge does not build up significantly anywhere on its path. Capacitors are devices placed in electric circuits where charge can build up. The amount of charge a capacitor can store before it "fills up" depends on its geometry and how much electric potential is applied. The ratio of charge stored in a capacitor to the voltage applied is called its capacitance, measured in Farads

Since 2002 DC Dynasty has provided quality baseball instruction and academic support to youth in underserved communities.
With limited facilities and not so pristine fields, we manage to reach nearly 300 youth a year through our program. Since our inception in 2002, we have seen over 50 of our alumni go on to play college baseball and eleven of our alumni have been fortunate enough to play professionally. Many more go to college and become leaders on campuses all across the country. We literally have kids that can't get enough of our program. However, quality fields and space dedicated to baseball is scarce. DC Dynasty has always dreamed of having its own indoor baseball facility. We are closer than ever to realizing this dream and making it possible for us to offer our services 6 days a week throughout the year. We have created an environment conducive to learning and remain a safe haven for many inner-city youth in the District.
Our mission is to make baseball relevant again and put baseball back on the map in our Nation's Capital! Participation in baseball across the city remains low, and in particular it is a dying sport in the inner-cities across the region. Retention after Little League is at an all-time low, and I believe the lack of facilities and accessibility to baseball year around has a profound impact. In a predominantly football and basketball city, DC Dynasty has been a constant driving force for respectability in the sport. We believe in a cultural and socio-economic diverse setting. We bring together kids that usually would not have an opportunity to interact otherwise. Every year we have kids that travel outside of DC or stay in a hotel for the first time with our travel teams. Our coaches do a great job of not only coaching, but serving as a mentor or big brother is a natural instinct in our program. Your support shows that you believe not only in our organization, but the youth we impact on a daily basis. We cannot do it without your help, and you can expect to hear the great things that these kids can and will accomplish down the road!!!

I just moved to the area and recently brought my girlfriend's car to Advanced Auto Center to get the water pump and timing belts replaced. They did an amazing job and took the time to explain EVERYTHING to us in terms that anyone could understand.
The guys at the shop were great and gave us a loaner car when the repairs took longer than expected when due to some stubborn nuts and bolts! We were not expecting this at all.
Great experience and will be bringing my car back to them again and again while I am in the Boston area!

I wrote this poem when I was 16. One of my friends, Joey, died in a car accident only 3 weeks before he was to graduate from high school. The sad thing is, if the car that ran him off the road had stopped to help the police officer get Joey out of the car, he probably would have made it. But the police officer was not able to get him out of the car before it was completely engulfed in flames. And no, they never caught them.

Well! No more, today we make a stand, on my tongue (since i am known to be a a tongue lashing person :), today we talk about those sick SOBs, they just piss the hell out of me; i am not a mean dude (but can be), and am self confident (maybe vain), so i never allow nobody to step over boundaries, or try to bring me down, even hurt me in that sense. But that's just me. not everyone is at luxury to de-attach or be self involved to not care about what others might think or do around them.
So why does the sick enjoyment of morons cost us, decent people so much pain; partly because, we do care about those around us, and we effect and get effected by others, so why is there those non-considerate fucks, and to what gain do their actions lead; we can either ask some of those pricks, but i doubt they will come clean, or i turn one myself and try to then revert to be non-a-hole and tell ya the experience, which i think will be a bit hard!
Maybe, they are player haters, lack some qualities and just feel envy of those that have them, and try to bash and ruin whatever good comes their way, it is easy to be a dick! only requires ya to stop using your head before talking, and i know we all sometimes do that, but making a habit out of it, shows i don't know, that you' re twisted, pathetic and totally not kool!
So, will it ever stop? Big chance no, doesn't matter if you change places you work, live or hang in, your just gonna meet the pricks of that new place, every where has those, and it seems nowadays they are tad bit to many out there than before, maybe high season time. As to why we get hurt, well 1. because our moms brought us up to be upstanding functional normal decent humans, 2. It's just not natural to be mean and twisted, 3. Being one of the overly sensitive souls and emotional beings
My advise, toughen up, shit is gonna keep coming your way, life is gonna continue throwing you curve balls, and you have to keep at it, till you hit a homer. Learn the lesson, deal with pain and never show weakness, you can't really shut pain out (unless your a ninja or master samurai), but you can learn to blow it off, to lean and not take the impact full on. and with time and practice, you will not care anymore, problem is, this can lead to indifference in every aspect of life, stop selling yourself short, the reason they are mean, is either they are just that or because you are far better than they can ever be, misery loves company, and only true friends will be happy when something good comes your way.
When all is said and done, at the end of the day, you stand on that much higher ground, that it shouldn't matter those trying to knock you off, picture it like this; self confidence is the ground you stand on, and friends are the shield that blocks the rocks getting thrown at ya
Really what anyone wants is a true smile, a pure feeling, from a real friend to know all is OK!

VREELAND, TEXAS. Vreeland was on the Waco, Beaumont, and Sabine Valley Railway eighty-three miles north of Houston in west central Polk County. Apparently seeking to capitalize on the railroad, constructed in 1908, and on the nearby logging facilities at Blanchard and East Tempe, northern land speculators developed a townsite, which they named after the surveyor. Although the Vreeland town plat was filed in 1915, the project never developed as its sponsors wished. However, the more recent construction of Lake Livingston spurred residential development near the abandoned townsite during the 1960s and 1970s.

© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
By Jason A. email@example.com A Clayton County woman suspected of stealing from her father's house in Henry County will stand before a Superior Court judge to answer the charge. Rori Dashay Johnson, 21, of Jonesboro, is charged with one count of burglary Henry County Police say the incident which led to the suspect's arrest took place on the night of June 21, at 1669 Graystone Drive in Hampton. According to a police report, the father and his girlfriend arrived home from church and saw Johnson at the house. "The couple observed as [Johnson] came out of the front door of their residence, and ran towards their neighbor's back yard while carrying a plastic bag," the report states. "[They] observed that the garage door had also been opened." The report further states that Johnson went back to the front of the house, and asked to use the restroom. "Johnson was using a cell phone at the time she entered the bathroom, and then abruptly left the residence," according to the report. Police were told that when the couple inspected the home, several items had been removed from a basket on the hallway floor. The items included a silver iPod, costume jewelry and $30 worth of bath items. A warrant was issued for Johnson's arrest June 22, and she was apprehended June 25. She was released from the Henry County Jail the following day, on $25,000 bond. Johnson appeared Wednesday in Henry County Magistrate Court, and waived her right to a preliminary hearing in the case. Her attorney, Brandon Cline, did not comment on the allegations against his client. Henry County Magistrate Judge Robert Godwin bound the burglary charge over to Superior Court. A future hearing date in the case has not been set.

The problem with commitment
The reality of the difficulty in committing to travel really hit home as I re-read an article I wrote years ago. I felt like I was reading the words of someone else much wiser than myself. At the time I penned that article I was full to the brim with the heartfelt intention of traveling within the year. I remember feeling it in my bones. Life had other plans for me though. And the year after that as well. And the year after that. Three full years later I am finally set to fulfill my promise to myself. Three extremely full and challenging years later. During that time I caught myself feeling defeated at times, wishing for things to play out differently. Or for a huge trust fund. I realized soon that attitude was truly the only thing I could ever control and so I took a step back for a better perspective. I found I have nothing to be disappointed about nor discouraged. My babies were now well on their way through toddler-hood and they knew what it felt like to have a mommy who was always there wrapping them up in love. All the pieces had finally fallen into place and we were putting down roots in a place I've been longing to call home. I had personally grown and learned how to put myself out there, get comfortable with being uncomfortable and take chances to obtain what I wanted with my business. I have the satisfaction of standing by my husband and watching his dreams come true after taking the terrifying leap into self employment. My wanderlust heart may have ached for adventure but the framework of my life had been solidified and I am now right where I need to be.
Almost everyone I talk to gets misty eyed when the topic of travel comes up. Everyone has somewhere that calls to them.
They also have bills, jobs, kids, family and responsibilities that call louder. Taxes, tabs and a dishwasher in need of replacement.
I don't want anyone to think that I don't understand the reality of life when I push to travel despite obstacles. I'm in the trenches too and I can honestly say that I am knocked down backwards more often than I am able to pull myself up. My war cry remains the same. Just Go.
If you can't swing a flight across the ocean I understand. Believe me. Grab the keys instead and discover what is lurking next door. I may have missed exploring the back roads of Tuscany but I discovered the jaw dropping beauty of Glacier National Park (and the heart pounding terror of a grizzly encounter). My little kids have yet to play in the piazzas but they can name their favorite forest service cabins and we have hiked nearly every local trail.
Just Go. Travel anyway. Any where. Travel to grow, to learn, to heal, dream, recharge, teach, change. Travel to become a better version of yourself for yourself.

How to Become an Attorney in New York
Three Methods:Applying to and Attending Law SchoolTaking the Bar ExamBeginning to Practice Law
An attorney is someone who is legally certified by a state to practice law. Because of an attorney's ethical and professional responsibilities, there are several steps one must take before gaining this certification. In general, a would-be lawyer must graduate from an accredited law school and pass a state bar exam. The steps below will guide you through the process of becoming an attorney in New York, including attending law school, taking the bar exam, and beginning the practice of law.
Method 1 of 3: Applying to and Attending Law School
1Submit an application to an American Bar Association-accredited law school. The basic degree you will need to become an attorney is the "juris doctor," or J.D.
- You will generally need to hold a bachelor's degree in order to gain admission to an accredited law school, though in exceptional circumstances this requirement may be waived. Other requirements, such as fluency in English, apply.
- You need not attend a law school in New York state in order to practice law there.
2Remain in residency at law school for between 75 and 105 "calendar weeks" if a full-time student, and between 105 and 135 "calendar weeks" if a part-time student.
- A "calendar week" is defined by the New York State Board of Law Examiners as a week in which 10 credit hours (full-time) or 8 credit hours (part-time) are completed. Each semester of study counts as 15 weeks.
3Complete graduation requirements satisfactorily and secure a J.D. degree from the law school.
- The New York State Board of Law Examiners allows for non-graduates who have completed at least one year of study at a law school to complete their preparation with three years of study at a law firm or in a clerkship; in general, however, a J.D. is the best way to qualify to sit for the bar.
Method 2 of 3: Taking the Bar Exam
1Apply to take the bar exam at least two months before either of the testing periods (July and February).
2Complete the New York Local section on the morning of the first day of the exam, answering 3 essay questions and 50 multiple choice questions about New York-specific law.
3Complete the remaining two essays from the New York Local section and the Multi-state Performance Test--designed to test real-life lawyer's skills--on the afternoon of the first day of the exam.
4Complete the Multi-state Bar Exam on the second day of the exam, completing 200 multiple choice questions about legal principles.
5Attain a weighted score of at least 665 in order to pass the bar exam.Ad
Method 3 of 3: Beginning to Practice Law
1Apply for employment at private law firms, public prosecutor offices, legal aid clinics, or organizations or companies with legal divisions. Employers will require records of successful completion of the bar exam.
2Establish a private practice and apply for admission as an attorney to the New York Unified Court System.
- Admission as an attorney in New York state simply requires the passing of the bar exam. Apply to register within 30 days of your birthday, and renew your registration every two years.
Give us 3 minutes of knowledge!
- In the event that you have studied at a foreign law school, you may still be able to take the bar exam. Consult the website of the New York State Board of Law Examiners for more information.
- If you attended a non-ABA-accredited law school, you may be able to qualify for the New York state bar exam by having practiced law in another state for 5 of the past 7 years. In this case, of course, you will have had to have passed the bar exam in that state.
- When researching how to become an attorney in New York, do not trust any guides or sources that suggest the possibility of taking the bar exam or practicing law without having attended law school. At the very least, New York state requires would-be attorneys to have attended law school for at least one year, followed by additional requirements.
Things You'll Need
- Graduation from an ABA-accredited law school (or attendance for at least one year, in exceptional circumstances)
- A weighted score of at least 665 on the New York State bar exam

Some seniors don't see retirement in their future
The former engineer who became an entrepreneur is now trying to open a deli in Dania Beach, Fla.
"I want to make good sandwiches and salads," said Mastropierro, who is waiting for the necessary permits to open his deli. "My grandfather had a deli in Italy, and he taught me a lot of things when I was a little boy."
The deli will help him supplement his Social Security check, he added.
He is not alone with wanting to earn extra money. The nest egg is cracked -- or maybe was too small to begin with -- so more seniors are marching back to work.
The number of Americans 65 and older still employed has jumped 69 percent in just a decade, according to October data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Just in a year, 8 percent more Americans above 65 were working in October -- the largest percentage jump in at least a decade, the BLS reported.
The reason?
Vanishing pensions, not enough savings, the gyrating stock markets, zero interest in bank accounts and Social Security checks that fail to cover all the bills. The average Social Security payment is just over $1,200 a month.
"People who retired are going back to work because they need the extra money," said Edith S. Lederberg, executive director of the Aging and Disability Resource Center of Broward County, Fla. "I think it is a growing trend because people are living longer."
Lederberg herself just turned 83 last month and is still working full-time -- despite a recent hospital stay. Like many other women of her generation, she said she stayed home to raise a family and now relishes working.
"I don't plan to leave as long as I am a positive force in the agency," Lederberg declared.
Around the nation, more seniors are holding down jobs when even a decade ago they would have been at home or traveling. They range from doctors to Wal-Mart greeters.
An elder workforce has become a signature of some businesses. Grocery chain Publix, which won a national award for its hiring of seniors, benefits from mature workers who "bring experience, a strong work ethic and a positive, friendly attitude to Publix," said spokeswoman Kimberly Reynolds.
Others have used their later years to concentrate on civic and volunteer work.
Jack Brady, a retired schoolteacher, was first elected to the North Lauderdale, Fla., City Commission in 1988 while he was still working. Now 70 and a popular re-elected mayor, Brady said he likes concentrating on his city full-time.
He said he runs his city to help others -- from saving taxpayers' money to organizing a group of volunteers to clean a yard of an elderly person who can't.
"God helps us, giving the strength to do things for other people," he said.
Still, Jack Weglinski of Boca Raton, Fla., who at one time had his own business, said health may force people to cut short their working years and he's glad he saved to retire early.
"I took early Social Security at age 62 and am now 67," he said, "so, even if I die today, at least I got something."
Many younger workers are paying attention to the new reality and think Social Security benefits will be reduced -- or even eliminated -- by the time they reach retirement age.
That's why Brian Javeline, 47, of Coral Springs, Fla., is regularly working out at a gym. He wants to stay fit to work well into old age.
"You have to be a realist," said Javeline, who started a contractors' website, MyOnlineToolbox.com.
Indeed, he said he doesn't expect to ever quit working
"The word retirement should be retired," he quipped.

Elaine Gallegos: Ashamed by greed and overindulgence
Elaine Gallegos, Redding
Ashamed by greed and overindulgence
As an American, I was ashamed to find out that big-box stores would open on Thanksgiving, rather than the day after. I was saddened, and quite frankly repulsed, to turn on the TV for "news" on Friday only to find that every TV channel was showing the melees that were going on around the country. I wondered if this is what our troops are fighting, getting wounded, and dying for.
Thank you, Silas Lyons, for expressing precisely what I and, I'm quite sure, many others are thinking. I could only think, "Gimme, gimme, gimme," when I saw these people pushing and shoving. Where do we go from here? Do we act better than most animals?
I agree we can't turn the tide with one column, but we need to express our outrage at this dumbing down of society. Overindulgence and greed seem to be a driving force today — greed playing a major role in bringing our economy to the brink! I can only hope and pray that we have reached the bottom and can start coming up again — meaning using common sense, common courtesy, showing respect for others, and being content to live within our means!

I thought the painting sitting in the window of El Torito Grocery Store looked familiar. Then I realized it; I had seen a similar composition, a scene of presumably the Virgin and Child saving souls from Purgatory, in the chapel of a church on the Via dei Tribunali, in Naples, Italy.

Interesting. I'd never seen those cherubic floating heads before.
