11 Tips to Get Her to Say Yes
From a survey involving girls from different backgrounds. Two bonus male tips have also been added.
Have you ever desired a lady and wondered how to approach her? Is the girl of your dreams proving unreachable? Here are some useful tips to help you get any girl! Wonder why we are so sure it works? Well quite simple this tips where got from ladies themselves. We did a survey of what ladies really look for in a guy before agreeing to date him. From the results we took a pool of the 10 most useful tips. If these tips can't help you (although I really doubt that), then I advise you stay off girls and just stick to little male pets.
Be bold
This I think should be tip number one. A woman needs a man not just someone in male pants but someone who can take charge and she can lean on. It is okay to be nice and sweet but you have to show you are a man. If you are scared to even approach her you are telling a lot of your self confidence level. The shy guys don't' get the girl (unless sometimes in the movies). If you desire her you should be able to make the moves, she might reject it at first but would still admire your confidence and style.
Be nice
Make an effort to be nice. Open doors pull out chairs and believe me no matter what she says or where she is from she would be impressed. Be a gentleman when around her. Be considerate and let her see how you are willing to go out of your way to be extra nice to her. Being nice means you are polite and gentle. Your aim is to convince her or entice her with a fore-taste of how you are going to treat her when she is yours. When she seems rude and unfriendly it pays to still be nice to her.
Be a listener
Now this was real popular among the ladies, they all say they need a man they can talk to. Can you be that man? Well you have to prove it early. Learn to listen to her. When with her let her talk, don't go blabbing about you and you alone. That is what all other guys do they keep talking about themselves and their accomplishments. Believe me she has heard it in many variations so it would pay you to be different. Let her talk. Use questions to let her tell you about herself. Remember the rule, talk less and listen more (take note; I did not say be dumb!).
Be truthful
The truth has the knack of always rearing up its head one time in the future. No matter how you try to hide it, it always surfaces in time. This is a fact of life and to avoid the bitter effects of concealed truths it is wise to be truthful from the very start. Let her see that she can depend on you. Tell her the truth about you and you past. Have you been to jail before or have a child? It would be much better if you tell her yourself and quite early in the relationship. No one is perfect so it is only normal to have a few not too palatable actions. But lying and saying the truth is a choice you have to make and she would not appreciate if you choose to lie. Do not pretend to be what you ar not, let her see you as you are and you would be amazed that your honesty would open doors in her heart for you.
Remember the little things
Believe it or not what leaves lasting impressions on a girl's impressionable mind are the seemingly little things. Buy her a house and forget her birth day and you would understand this point better. Little things such as unexpected phone calls, flowers and little treats are what would make her convinced you are for real. Going out for a date do not always have to be the formal expensive outing. Call and offer to have a coffee with her, go out for a walk or to local café would provide a more simple setting devoid of the usual formal dating atmosphere with the related pressure of being on a date. You are both more relaxed. Remember it is the little signs, the little things you do and say that might just win the race for you.
Be a friend, be interested in her
It helps you when a girl believes you are interested in her, as in truly interested in her. What she does, her life, her goals, plans and things associated with her. Take interest in her child if she has one, her career and her problems. In other words be a true friend a concerned friend. Did she tell you of a difficult assignment at school or office? Remember to call or ask her later how it went. Don't just forget about it as it concerns you not. She has to be able to see you as a friend she can rely on.
Be fun to be with
Everyone likes to have a good time. Take time to know what she likes and make each time with you fun for her. This does not mean spend a fortune (although the truth is that is what some girls would actually prefer) you just have to be creative and being witty does not hurt. Do not try to play the clown or comedian always making jokes and trying to make people laugh all the time. Be fun to be with do not go and embarrass yourself.
Be nice to her friends
Many girls are greatly influenced by her friends. If you notice that she has a close group of friends it would be a good idea to try to impress them to. You target and aim is your girl, but do remember that her friends might just be part of the panel to review your application. Be nice to them and be aware that they would be offering her suggestions which might not all be in your favor so if you could isolate her; take my advice and skillfully do it.
Respect her feelings
A woman is a human with feelings and emotions. She desires things for herself and has her own hopes and dreams. You want her to feel that you can both pursue your dreams together. In doing this you have to respect her as a woman and as a person. When she says no, it won't be bad to lay off for a while. Do not treat her as a child or as one lesser to you. The tricky thing about showing respect is that it doesn't help if you believe you are showing her respect but she does not feel respected. You want her to feel that you are respecting her.
Love her
Believe me, wherever a girl comes from or what her background was like she desires the same basic thing as other women. Most of them require and appreciate someone who loves her. Circumstance might make her act otherwise but truth be told all women secretly want a man who would really love them. IF you can convince her that your love for her is real you have solved gained her heart by 50% and the work is half done. It would be easier for you to follow the other tips if you really love her. Loving her was what all the women agreed was a quality all the women asked said was among the most important. The issue would now be how to convince her and let her see that you really do love her. That's easy; read the tips above.
Be evasive
Now this may be confusing but try to understand it. You want he girl, that is the aim of the game, you want her to know this but do not let her be too sure, confuse her! Smother her with praise and later act a bit less interesting. Reveal less definite facts about you. Be mysterious and not always direct. Skillfully let her know you have options, you would prefer her company but if she is not available… Then the very next day smother her with words about how she is irreplaceable. Visit her for a while and then lay back a little. Believe me this makes you more interesting and somewhat of a challenge.
Do not always be Mr. Nice Guy
Do not always be the good boy on the block. Sometimes you what to show your wilder side, the naughty boy you can be. She does not desire you to be a saint, saints are less fun so be nice but don't over do it. Always keep her guessing what you would do. Do not be too predictable.
Take note that these tips are not exhaustive of all you need to know to get her to say yes or where they all that the ladies in the survey mentioned. These were just the ones that occurred most. Also take note that these tips were from ladies not from guys. Some ladies might not be aware of or want to say some tips known to us guys that do work. I have thus decided to add to bonus tips of mine which any guy worth his salt in getting girls would recognize as effective. If all these tips do not help you get a girl to say yes then please avoid everything female.
Liked it

Are you sure this stuff would work? i kinda preffered the last 2 tips from a guy, think i would try that out. why are some girls so easy to get and some just playing too damn difficult. anyway good points mentioned and some everyday hard to practice stuff too. Imagine open doors and stuff. urghh!
On December 1, 2007 at 3:12 am
am a girl and i do know that some of these tips or moves might work, but it also takes a lot more. For example the size of your pocket, how sexy you are or handsome and good you are if you know what i mean. but in all they r still usefull tips. hope u guys are reading. open doors and remember the little stuffs. lol!
On December 2, 2007 at 12:21 pm
thats what exactly am not; mr good guy
On December 4, 2007 at 11:14 am
is there really a set of rules and guides that would work all time for every boy on every girl? Do you Leno have tons of girlfriends? I bet you don't even have one and you are giving tips. i have a female dog on heat if you are interested and these desperate.
On December 6, 2007 at 12:29 pm
is it a trial version this stuff is not enough!
On December 8, 2007 at 10:41 am
If you tried these basic stuff n still need help getting a girl to like u then u should try male cats. The only tin this list lacks is that you should have a boxload of cash n be willing to spread it all over her. Cash works all d time everytime. it stll does. if u doubt me send me her address n give me 1 week
On January 5, 2008 at 7:24 pm
Interesting article. I think each person is different, but your tips can definitely be helpful.
Best wishes.
-Liane Schmidt.
On May 22, 2008 at 4:03 am
Thanks Liane, of course everyone is different. Tips are just pointers. If your eyes are open you should be able to see the way.
On July 31, 2008 at 11:22 pm
O yeah those sound like the PERFECT way….but there are 12 tips and not 11.
On September 9, 2008 at 2:32 pm
thanks i finally relize that girls like challenges,i'll try being a little mysteriouse and be mr.bad to the bone.
On October 8, 2008 at 10:38 am
12 tips? who pays for the extra 1 , lol. well please playing Mr Bad works when done expertly and with sense. for it to trully be effective you need to spice it up with soft moments to suprise her. dont be pur badddddddddddddd or you will soon be so alone
On December 21, 2008 at 1:10 pm
other poster was right. not enough info. i can approach women but can only find asian women on online sites, not the good ones
On July 5, 2009 at 9:11 am
I think these tips would help you find the righteous lady and have a good relationship with her,I will try this and see
On December 27, 2009 at 2:40 am
Like i said tips are like pointers, no one way or style would work on everybody. each girl is different and the circumstances may differ. learn the points and adapt from one situation to another. for help with the asian chicks check out this article http://www.socyberty.com/Relationships/Tips-for-Success-Dating-Asian-Girls.64189
On April 14, 2010 at 3:56 pm
This is the biggest pile of half-assed trash info I've ever read. If you want to be a 40 year old virgin, fine, treat women like royalty. Women always say (with the logical portion of their brain) they want a sweet, dependable, respectable guy who will treat them right
By that of course they mean a guy who will pay all their bills, give them a place to stay for free and hand over his credit cards in exchange for the esteemed role of being their emotional tampon.
Guys, I know this is hard, but if you really want women, treat them like dirt. Be bold, confident, and don't give a crap what she or anyone else think. You will feel so much better about yourselves. Let the person inside you you are smothering come out. Women love excitement, not doormats
On March 30, 2011 at 8:31 am
lol im going through al of this.. i like the last two and it works is hard when you really like the person and theres nothing you rather do then be wih her all the time but you dont wana get tired of eachother too quick..and im never 100% direct with compliments i allways make her work for them .. is quite fun and it sounds a bit bad but jealousy works with women .. i dont mean go sleep wid some1 but kinda let her know that shes not the only option.
On May 5, 2011 at 8:04 am
true, you love them but let em know u aint a push over. make em work for a it a little

This is a great topic.
When I first got into photography I was obsessed with 'capturing the moment', chasing after sunsets, trekking through the woods weighed down with gear, etc. I took some really nice shots, but it could be really stressful trying to get to some of the places I used to got to shoot. I may have captured the shot but I was missing the peacefulness of the moment.
Around the mid-90s I lost my enthusiasm for photography so I started to just enjoy where I was and not think or worry about how to forever capture it for prosperity. The photo bug bit me again a few years ago and now when I am shooting I approach it like some people approach fishing-I may not get a bite, but I'm going to enjoy where I am, listen to the sounds of what is around me and know there's always another day to get the the big one.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Bike The Us For Ms Inc, Blacksburg, VA, USA
Bike the US for MS organizes cross country bike trips that raise awareness for Multiple Sclerosis research & volunteer for MS patients. These tours follow America's most traveled cross country routes and combine an important cause with an incredible experience.
This group was founded by the director, Don Fraser, because his mother has MS and he loves touring by bicycle. In 2007, Don and 3 friends rode across country heading East from Seattle Washington to Bar Harbor Maine. Don built a website and the four cyclists raised over $20,000 with help from a few friends. In 2009, Don led another group from Virginia to Oregon, raising over $25,000. I became involved in 2010 as a route-leader on the Trans-America bicycle trail and later became a board member. In 2010 we raised over $100,000.
For now, the group is run almost entirely on volunteer hours, only purchasing equipment for the rides as needed to keep overhead low. We have donated money for MS research at the Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston and to support a nurse practitioner's position at the James Q. Miller MS clinic in Charlottesville, VA. We also do service projects along the cross-country routes like yard work and paying for home modifications such as handicap ramps, and handicap bathroom renovations.

International civil society calls on Sri Lanka to release human rights activists
Published on Thursday, 20 March 2014 12:11
20 March 2014 – The release of Sri Lankan Human Rights Defenders Ruki Fernando and Father Praveen Mahesan must be met with substantive reform to advance human rights say CIVICUS, the Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative (CHRI) and the Sri Lanka Campaign for Peace and Justice (SLCPJ).
"While we welcome the release of Fernando and Father Praveen following an outpouring of international condemnation, numerous activists and dissidents remain in detention for trying to advance human rights," says Danny Sriskandarajah, CIVICUS Secretary-General. "The Sri Lankan Government must further heed the appeals of national and international civil society groups to remove all unwarranted restrictions on peaceful dissent and ensure a sustainable transition to democracy and rule of law," continued Sriskandarajah.
Ruki Fernando, of the civil society group INFORM and Father Praveen, a catholic priest, were detained on March 16 under Sri Lanka's draconian Prevention of Terrorism Act (PTA) after attempting to meet 13-year-old Balendran Vithushaini who was placed on probationary supervision following the arrest of her mother, Balendran Jeyakumari, a prominent rights activist, days before.
Jeyakumari, a longstanding campaigner against enforced disappearances, remains in prison following her arrest on 13 March for allegedly harbouring an ex-LTTE member. She is being detained at the Boosa Prison Camp under the broadly worded PTA, which allows for detention without charge for up to 18 months. Several other activists are currently held under the PTA and the number increased due to a spate of recent arrests across the north and east of Sri Lanka.
The arrests represent a continuing escalation of the government's ongoing attempt to silence independent reporting on human rights abuses in Sri Lanka. A recent report by CIVICUS, Sri Lanka's Harassed Civil Society, highlights the government's sustained campaign against active citizen participation and its overly sensitive stance on international scrutiny of its record on human rights, including the routine persecution of civil society activists who cooperate with UN human rights mechanisms.
CIVICUS, CHRI and SLCPJ call on the Government of Sri Lanka to end its intolerance of dissenting voices and unconditionally release all Human Rights Defenders, including Balendran Jeyakumari.

All four class leaders in the 2012 Rolex Swan Cup held on to their positions despite an intense contest on the water as the 17th edition of the competition came to a close. Gusts of 7-8 knots were present for the prompt 11:30 CEST race start as most of the near 60 strong fleet embarked on a final dash through Bomb Alley.
BRONENOSEC (RUS), winner Maxi class
The Maxis challenged a 24-nm coastal course, upwind around Monaci, before a downwind leg through Secca di Tre Monti, returning to Porto Cervo via the island of Mortoriotto. A short coastal course of 17-nm was set for the Grand Prix and Classic divisions while the yachts competing in the Rolex Swan 45 World Championship completed two windward/leeward races.
The overall competition winners are: Bronenosec (RUS) in Maxi; Natalia (ROU) in Grand Prix; Ondine (ITA) in Classic and Earlybird (GER) in the Rolex Swan 45 World Championship. The class winners all received Rolex timepieces following the traditional prizegiving held on Piazza Azzurra at event organizers the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda (YCCS).
Today's race winners were: Emma (GER) in Maxi; Natalia in Grand Prix; Gaetana (ITA) in Classic while Earlybird, with a first and a second was the top performer in the Rolex Swan 45 World Championship.
Swan fleet around Monaci - 2012 Rolex Swan Cup
Vladimir Liubomirov and his predominantly Russian and Italian crew on Swan 60 Bronenosec held both their nerve and advantage going into the final day. Bronenosec needed to stay ahead of James Madden's Swan 601 Stark Raving Mad (USA) and despite the best efforts of the American crew, third place to Stark's fourth was sufficient. 'We started this project just four months ago and we've managed to build a great team in that short space of time,' explained an enthusiastic Liubomirov. 'I have a dream crew and it is really important to win this famous event.' Bronenosec is already turning its attention to future competitions including next year's Rolex Fastnet Race. Stark Raving Mad can be proud of second place. With countback considered, she finished just one point behind the winner. A victory in today's last race enabled Johann Killinger's Emma to claim third spot.
Natalia valiantly defended her lead in the Grand Prix class following a memorable week's duel with fellow Swan 42 Magical Mystery Tour (GBR). Natalia Brailoiu's crew did so in style, notching victory in the final race. Co-skipper Diogo Cayolla explained the secret to the crew's successful week: 'All week whenever we've been in bad positions we've been able to recover, and whenever we've started well we've hung on to our lead. The 42 is a very competitive class of boat. We've had quite a few days with light winds which has favoured us.'
NATALIA (ROU), sails to the leading position after four days of racing - 2012 Rolex Swan Cup
Earlybird moved to the top of the Rolex Swan 45 World Championship standings for the first time yesterday surpassing Vittorio Ruggiero's TalJ (ITA) who had begun the competition with intent. In the first of today's two windward/leeward races, a second place enabled Earlybird to extend her lead over TalJ who could only manage third. In the style of true champions, Earlybird wrapped up the competition with a comprehensive win in the final race.

'We were nervous going into the final day as the winds were light and anything could have happened,' explained Earlybird co-owner Christian Nagel. 'It is the third time we have won the class but it was not easy as boats such as TalJ and Swanted have really improved. We realized this when TalJ achieved a first and a second place on the first day. We'll definitely be back to defend our title.'
Marco Gerbaudo's Ondine sealed the 15-strong Classic division. The Swan 53 finished a massive nine points ahead of nearest rival Shirlaf (ITA).

I've read almost every post here and nobody seems to have a final answer. What has to be done to get the Paris/Long Beach tracks to run properly on Xbox that is not using Xbox Live? I'm not looking to "Cheat on Live" or any of this other BS. I'm looking to intergrate these tracks and cars into my copy of PGR2 for multiplayer use. What has to be done to get the tracks & cars BOTH working and with no rendering/sky problems. I read something about a patched default.xbe etc. Is there a final solution on this, and if there is, why is it not up on Xbins like the DOAXBV hack? PGR2 DLC addon packs is a badass hack and if it has been made to work it should be shared. So basically, has this hack been successul or what? I've had the cars working, but never the tracks. I want to be able to play the Paris and Long Beach tracks, and I don't have Live, and never will. I just want this for multiplayer.

Apparently nobody here can type? Was this project ever completed? I don't know why everything has to be such a big secret in this forum. I give and receive help in all the other forums here. From what I'm getting here I guess nobody ever got this to work. This IS in the gamehacking forum, so has anybody got the DLC Tracks to work without the rendering problems or what?

Agave Mate
Honest Tea (Glass)
BevNET Review
The Agave Mate variety is one of the most lightly sweetened flavors that we've seen from Honest Tea in a while. Using organic agave for both the drink's sweetener and for a touch of flavor, it pairs quite nicely with the very light mate base that's used in this product. On that front, if you are looking for a strong mate flavor, you won't find it here. This flavor has clearly been formulated to fit within the same style of other Honest Tea flavors – and the simplicity of the formulation delivers. Packaging is clean and minimalist, with a blue agave backdrop on the trademark "T" logo and prime placement of the USDA Organic logo. Overall, a technically strong entry from Honest Tea.

The new city is really lacking in trails. Closest one is 30min. I know that's not terrible, but I'm a family man and don't like giving up time with my kids b/c pretty soon...they're gonna stop hanging out with the "old man" and chillin' with friends.
I've got my eye on a decent entry level (IMO) road bike. Given my size and shamefully hack riding...I hope it will withstand the abuse of ed.

LAS CRUCES — A New Mexico senator is back in the Land of Enchantment after witnessing firsthand a crackdown on protesters in Turkey.
State Sen. Mary Kay Papen, D-Las Cruces, was part of a large delegation of New Mexico officials who were in Turkey during the riots. Papen, who returned to Las Cruces early Tuesday, said the experience was "educational."
"I wouldn't necessarily say were in harm's way, but we weren't frightened," Papen said. "... It was quite an experience. It was an educational experience."
Papen and several elected state leaders were invited to Turkey by the Azerbaijan government. Papen and the delegation was on the trip from May 24 through Monday.
"It was all about Turkish, American and Azerbaijan relationships and working together," Papen said. "While we were there during the riots, it really turned out to be, otherwise, a really interesting trip."
On Tuesday, Turkey's deputy prime minister offered an apology of that government's violent crackdown on an environmental protest, a calculated bid to ease days of anti-government rallies in the country's major cities.
The message was a bit mixed, however, as hundreds of riot police deployed with water cannons around the prime minister's office in the capital of Ankara.
Bulent Arinc, who is standing in for the prime minister while he is out of the country, said the crackdown was "wrong and unjust."
"In that first (protest) action, the excessive violence exerted on people who were acting out of environmental concerns was wrong and unjust," Arinc said.
Papen said the New Mexico delegation got the opportunity to meet, and take photos, with Arinc. She said the delegation stayed at a hotel a short distance from the park where the riots began Friday. During the peak of the rioting, Papen and other New Mexico delegates felt the effects of tear gas used to quell rioters.
"There were a lot of young people coming down the streets," Papen said. "I don't have any idea of exactly how many, but I'd say it was hundreds of people."
Ironically, Papen said she and other New Mexico delegates were most taken by young Turkish children, between the ages of 11 to 13, who made a big impression.
"They were wonderful kids, so polite, so excited to visit with us," Papen said. "These were children learning a second language, and their English was impeccable. We were so impressed to be around them."
The impact of Arinc's statement in quelling the protests was unclear. Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who is visiting Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia, has undermined previous statements by his ministers and has dismissed the protesters as a fringe minority stirred up by the opposition.
Tens of thousands of mostly secular-minded Turks have joined anti-government rallies since Friday, when police launched a pre-dawn raid against a peaceful sit-in protesting plans to uproot trees in Istanbul's main Taksim Square. Since then, the demonstrations have spiraled into Turkey's biggest anti-government disturbances in years.
A 22-year-old man died during an anti-government protest in a city near Turkey's border with Syria, and officials gave conflicting reports on what caused his death.
Police have been accused of using disproportionate force in trying to break up demonstrations. In a boisterous debate in Parliament, Interior Minister Muammer Guler defended police officers' use of tear gas against demonstrators trying to reach government buildings.
"Should we have allowed them to march and take over Parliament?" he asked. "We do not have the luxury to allow illegal acts and will never have that luxury."
Arinc said he had no information about reports that riot police had erased or painted over numbers on their helmets so people could not report them in the event of abuse.
Guler, the interior minister, said protesters had destroyed CCTV cameras around Taksim, and the vandalism would make it harder for the government to detect abuse by police and identify perpetrators.
The Turkish Human Rights Association said some 3,300 people nationwide were detained during four days of protests, although most have since been released. At least 1,300 people were injured, the group said, although it said the number could be higher.
Protests have been directed at what critics say is Erdogan's aggressive and authoritarian style of governing. Many accuse him of forcing his conservative, religious outlook on citizens' lives in this mainly Muslim but secular nation. Erdogan rejects the accusations, says he respects all lifestyles.
Arinc said the government was "sensitive" to the demands of the largely urban, pro-secular section of society that had not voted for Erdogan's Islamic-rooted party.
"I would like to express this in all sincerity: everyone's lifestyle is important to us and we are sensitive to them," he said.
There were several other efforts to ease tensions.
Sirri Sureyya Onder, legislator from a Kurdish party who became a hero to many for standing in front of bulldozers to prevent the destruction of trees in Istanbul's Taksim square, called on demonstrators to continue protests in a more festival-like manner.
The state-run Anadolu Agency said police in Antalya, on the Mediterranean coast, handed over carnations and roses to a group of protesters.
Both Onder and Arinc spoke after a meeting with President Abdullah Gul who, contrary to Erdogan, has praised the mostly peaceful protesters as expressing their democratic rights.
Gul and Erdogan could face off next year in Turkey's presidential election.
The Hatay province governor's office initially said the man who died, Abdullah Comert, was shot Monday during a demonstration in the city of Antakya. It backtracked after Hatay's chief prosecutor's office said an autopsy showed Comert had received a blow to the head and there was no trace of a gunshot wound.
Gov. Celalettin Lekesiz did not respond to a journalist's question as to whether the man may have died after being hit in the head by a gas canister.
Arinc said the government was taking "all measures" to ensure that similar "bad incidents" were not repeated as police subdued protests.
The United Nations human rights office in Geneva expressed concern over the excessive use of force by police and called on Turkey to respect the people's right to peaceful protests and to promptly investigate abuses.
Crowds at Taksim Square and downtown Ankara began to swell with protesters once again late Tuesday as people left work. There were no immediate reports of any clashes.
In a town near Turkey's third-largest city, Izmir, some protesters set the local office of Erdogan's ruling party on fire. The blaze was quickly extinguished.
In Istanbul, many people slept in the shade of trees in Gezi Park, the part of Taksim Square that sparked the protests, while others walked around with bags cleaning up trash. Overturned cars and burned-out vans ringed the edges, spray-painted with graffiti.
A public service workers union called a two-day strike in support of the protests and thousands of its members marched to Taksim Square on Tuesday. There was, however, no evidence of any major disruption to services.
In a further step toward easing the tensions, Arinc was to meet Wednesday with a group of activists, architects and academicians who are uniting to protect Taksim Square.

P-CEP's National Honor Society is bringing back its successful partnership with the public libraries to provide free tutoring for community students.
Now in its fourth year, the program - which will run Oct. 7 through May 23 - services more than 3,000 students per year. Last year, this partnership was awarded a national commendation through the Canton Public Library. The program is designed to tutor studenets third grade through high school at both the Canton Public Library and the Plymouth District Library.
In an effort to improve programming, district officials are devising an online appointment system at the Plymouth District Library, where parents can schedule half hour appointments; the hope, officials said, is that it will encourage regular enough attendance to transform the tutoring into mentoring.
Otherwise, appointments are fifteen minutes and on a first-come, first served basis.
Students should know:
? To bring their own materials to work with, such as textbooks and calculators.
? Sessions are first-come, first-serve and last 15 minutes.
? Thirty minute appointments will be available at the Plymouth Library by mid-October.
? Help is available for any subject.
Students should visit the teen reference desk at the Canton Public Library. Tutoring schedule is Monday-Tuesday-Thursday, 6-8 p.m.
Students using the Plymouth District Librar should check in at the Teen Zone; tutoring schedule is 4-6 p.m. Wednesday and 6-8 p.m. Thursday.

The public key is on the server in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, the private key is in .ssh on my local laptop, but when I connect over ssh, it keeps asking me the password.
any hepl would be very appreciated,
thanks a lot,

So evidently the Miami Heat cried yesterday. It made big news. We're all talking about it today.
This morning, Erik Spoelstra met with the media following the Heat's practice and did what any damage control expert would tell him to do: Blame it on the media.
"I think you guys (the media) can probably take anything I say and turn it into a story," Spoelstra said. "I was shocked when [PR man Tim Donovan] told me about it this morning that it's actually making the news. I think you guys can be a little more creative than that. I will say one thing, the guys care. Nobody was whimpering in the locker room."
"It's a classic case of sensationalism [by the media]," Spoelstra continued. He then said he didn't regret it and even tried to joke it away by dubbing it "crygate." (I must admit, that's pretty clever.)
While saying it, Spoelstra had the look of a man that knew he has royally screwed the pooch but was trying to just laugh it off as no big deal. Couldn't believe it was actually making the news? And you didn't know until this morning? Yeeeeeeeeeeeeah right.
Spoelstra kind of backtracked when asked if players were actually crying. He kind of said no, just saying heads were down and there was lots of noise.
It was an obvious plan of attack from the Heat as Spoelstra waited until he was asked about it and then played dumb, pulling the blame the media routine. It's one of the easiest ways to deflect criticism. It's not my fault. You guys are the ones making a big deal of it. I prefer people to stand up and tell it how it is. I think the general public (and media) respect that more than pointing fingers. It wouldn't have been hard for Spoelstra to say, "Yeah, a couple guys were upset. They cared about the game. We're not going to apologize for caring."
LeBron had his coach's back on the matter. "Spo is the captain... we stand behind anything he says."
I do think this is an example of us -- fans, media, general onlookers -- of kind of getting excited about a simple statement. So the Heat may or may not have cried a bit in the locker room. Just like most anything Heat related, it's turned into big news. We'll all move on here soon enough when they choke a crunch time play this week.

And by the way Duane (or however your mother thinks the name duane is spelled. Also see Anfernee) Yes, we are rejoicing that the Miami Heat Suck and lose daily. YOU are the ones who said 8 rings at your Boyz 2 Men concert when u signed, now you can't take the "Heat" so you go cry to your mommy? Pathetic. And what stupid idiot of a coach throws his team under the bus, then blames the media? For What? reporting what you said verbatim? Who the hell is Eric Spoelstra? I used to be a big "Riles" guy when he was with a real franchise (Lakers) now he looks like he has alzheimers as he stare blankly when the heat are getting crushed and then this choice for coach? I think "Riles" has lost it.

This little oompa-loompa put his foot in his mouth and is just trying to cover his azz. The oompa-loompa will be the first guy Lebron throws under the bus. The coach will get all the blame for the failure of the 3-egos and be out of a job next year after his team loses in the first round of the playoffs.D-Wade is really living in a bubble if he thinks that everyone jumped on the Heat bandwagon when they were on their win streak. I think this whole team is blinded by the ever-growing ego of the CHOKIN1 and the whole country is reveling their failure.

If Riley comes to coach this team, chances are Wade won't be on it since the 2 got issues. I think Lebron would fall in love with Riley personally with the way Riles can craptalk his players into playing against others. I could see Phil Jackson sneaking into Miami next season and causing Wade or Bosh to be traded away for a strong supporting cast of players.

Is the media "blowing it out of proportion?" Maybe a little bit but come on the Heat have lost 4 in a row and they are supposed to be the best team ever and those pictures make it so easy for people to think LeBron James and Dwayne Wade were in fact crying.
I thought the saying was "any publicity is good publicity" so run with that and not beep and moan and try to yell at the media!

Also wanted to mention that Dwayne Wade and Lebron James are among the top 5 players in the league only on paper. Wade is good but I wouldn't toss him or Bosh in the top 15 players in the NBA. Bosh could sneak in there, but Wade is not. The proof is on paper and on the floor that Wade has been sucking it up and been destroyed by the top teams in the NBA. At least Lebron James has been putting up those big numbers against EVERYONE. His only problem is finishing games. We had a guy like that once, his name was Alonzo Mourning and he couldn't finish crap either which is why the Knicks and Bulls kept beating us in those years.

Erik Spoelstra, LeBron react to 'crygate'
I'm a big time Heat fan and have been for 15 years about. There are a few things I can say about this team. One is they are not the best team Miami has ever had. I put them up there as the 4th best Miami Heat team in their team history. Yes #4, that means I calling out that #8 seed team that consisted of Glen Rice, Rony Seikaly, Grant Long, Bimbo Coles, and Steve Smith as a team that could whoop this Miami Heat team in a series. Second of all, Dwayne Wade is not as good as he was 3 seasons ago. Wade does not play with the same intensity or consistency anymore. It has been downhill for Wade since Shaq left which tells me the Heat need a big man down low to be successful. Third, a fan recently pointed something out ... the Heat have a winning record against good teams (10-1) when Big Z is starting, but a losing record (1-15) when Dampier is starting. Anyone can verify this? And lastly, another fan pointed out two things about Spoelstra. One is that Spoelstra is being outcoached because he is running the same stupid plays over and over again and people are figuring it out. The second thing is the guy is not a good motivator or speaker, so the team doesn't have the respect and listen to him the way they would respect a fierce coach like Riley, Phil Jackson, etc. The point brought up was that Spoelstra has never been ejected from a NBA game. That to me says a lot. 3 years now and never ejected? Come on, seriously.

So I was listening to the show on Sunday afternoon. Jim Zabel was interviewing a spokesman from The Big 10 network.... The last question he asked was something along the lines of "Do you think the big 10 network will grow as large as other syndicated television networks like NBC, ABC, or CBS?"
He was dead serious.....
For a couple of seconds it was so silent that you could actually hear the BTN representative thinking, ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR ****ING MIND????
Kinnick smells like syrup.
His Kool-Aid must have been spiked with more Kool-Aid. This guy is a piece of work I say!
Is he still alive?
Jim Zabel is just like Bob Brooks. They have to Freeze them whenever they aren't doing a story.
Zabel was replaced by an animatronic double when he passed away in 1982. Fortunately, he is enviro-friendly as he runs on 100% ethanol.
Yeah well, ya know, that's just, like uh, your opinion, man.

Zabel is responsible for fist-pounding squawk eye drivel down central Iowa's throat since the turn of the twentieth century. In my mind his entire career is criminal and I don't care how much respect everyone has for him and laady frickin' daaa. It's no wonder him and Walden share a radio program.
He's probably the biggest reason more non-iowa grads are iowa fans, though I'm sure he's an iowa grad himself... He makes my blood boil, thanks for ruining my day.

Liverpool's Luis Suarez should be banned for diving - Tony Pulis
Stoke City boss Tony Pulis wants the Football Association to punish Liverpool's Luis Suarez for diving.
Pulis says the Uruguay striker was guilty of going to ground too easily in the second half of his side's goalless draw at Anfield on Sunday.
"I've been on about and banging the drum about people who fall over," said Pulis. "It's an embarrassment. The FA should be looking at this."
Brendan Rodgers Liverpool manager
"I haven't seen the incident so I can't really comment on it but whatever Luis does there will always be a problem"
Pulis said a three-game ban would stop Suarez from "falling over."
However, the FA is unlikely to sanction the player, who went to ground in the Stoke penalty area despite no contact from an opposition player.
It only takes retrospective action against unseen red card offences and not offences that might have earned only a booking.
"Suarez is a fantastic player with great ability," added Pulis. "He is a handful and he is the one player we are frightened to death about.
"What happens is that he puts enormous pressure on the referee. Every time he goes down, you have got 40,000-odd Liverpool supporters getting after the referee and I don't think that's right. It is a tough enough job as it is."
Pulis also argued it is time for the Professional Footballers' Association to step in and address the subject.
Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers preferred to praise Suarez's play rather than focus on that once moment in the game.
"I haven't seen the incident, so I can't really comment on it," said Rodgers, who has complained to referees' chief Mike Riley about some of the decisions against his side this season, including a lack of penalties in Suarez's favour.
"But whatever Luis does there will always be a problem, whether it's media, referees or whatever.
"It gets brought up every week, it's something that is not new. I thought he was terrific, some of his movement and combinations."
Rodgers was frustrated by the draw but praised his side, in particular his younger players, for the way they stood up to the physical challenge Stoke provided.
"They are a bunch of big men who make it difficult for you and there is no right or wrong way to play football," he added.
"What I was proud of is our young guys stood up to that. It was a physical game but no complaints from us.
"I am obviously disappointed we didn't win the game, but I thought the attitude and application of the players was terrific."

Perhaps Tony Pullis wants to move attention away from how Stoke were outplayed at the weekend. He doesn't seem to be ranting about Huth's stamping on Suarez. Instead, he's jumped on a band wagon and isolated one player for a sin that so many players are guilty of.
His comments only further serve to undernine the beautiful game.
Comment number 922. Posted by Eugene Petiton 10 Oct 2012 16:39
Ashley Young,Nani,Rooney and now Wellbeck. Gareth Bale have all done outrageous dives. Yet Mr. Pullis is only outraged by Suarez. This same Suarez got 8 games and fines for racial abuse, Terry got 4. I wonder why?
Comment number 921. Posted by Notlongnowon 10 Oct 2012 15:41
Oh Mr Pullis, Stoke know how to treat divers look at your trophies,
Jeffers, Adebayor and Ramsey, you don't need the FA.
What the motto "he's not that type of player".

Well, I am tired of divers, moaners, ugly tacklers, elbow smashers etc.
As a lifelong (40-years) English football fan Ilerant in the 70`s what a good football is. It`s attitude, fair challenges and respect. Nowadays managers are explaining too much - Ferguson, Rodgers, Pulis, Wenger and the list goes on and on. And referees are the worst!

Daily News on Nuclear, Biological & Chemical Weapons, Terrorism and Related Issues
Cheney Worries Extremists May Wield "Dirty Bomb"
Former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney on Tuesday told a Canadian audience he fears extremists might launch a radiological "dirty bomb" strike, the Calgary Herald reported (see GSN, Sept. 7).
"I worry about that," Cheney said at a private gathering in Calgary, Alberta. Atomic systems have evolved to the point where "a relatively small number of people can do damage to a city," he said.
Counterterrorism analysts believe there is a greater likelihood of terrorists mounting a dirty bomb attack than a nuclear strike, given the wider availability of materials needed to build a radiological weapon. Such a device would use explosives to disperse radioactive materials that can be found in medicine, industry and other sectors. While the death toll would be far less than that of a nuclear strike, a dirty bomb could still cause substantial health, economic and environmental damage.
Cheney was in Calgary promoting his new book, "In My Time: A Personal and Political Memoir," which includes heavy criticism of some former colleagues in the Bush administration (see GSN, Aug. 25).
Cheney wrote that former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice came to him in tears, saying she recognized she had erred in offering an apology for the discredited claim made in President Bush's 2003 State of the Union that then-Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein had attempted to buy uranium in Niger for a nuclear weapons effort.
Rice insisted the described scene in the vice president's office never occurred; she also rejected Cheney's assertion that she provided bad guidance to Bush in efforts to deal with North Korea's nuclear weapons program.
Former Secretary of State Colin Powell has also lambasted the book, the Herald reported (Robert Remington, Calgary Herald, Sept. 28).

Here I am at it again, I've started writing my second book a little over one month ago. Now obviously i won't reveal what it is about yet as I'm still waiting on a decision from my publisher but it will be obviously be related to computer graphics in some form but at this point in time i have a little over 100 pages done, which should account for about 1/3 of the book. Yay! :)
Speaking of which, I've been waiting for a decision from my publisher for almost two months now. I can't believe how things move slowly with them sometimes. Apparently i barely missed the last editorial review board and now i have to wait for the next one next month. In my opinion, i think they are mostly waiting to get the sales report on my current book to see if my new book is a viable risk to them.
I myself am curious to see how sales are going. So far, I've only received one report (they are sent quarterly) and since it covered about 3 weeks after my book was released, it had only sold about 1000 copies at that time. But since it does take about 4-6 weeks for most on-line stores and regular retail stores to stock up the book, who knows what the numbers will be on the next report. It is especially hard to guage since my Amazon sales rank has been all over the place, ranging from the 8,000's to 800,000.
You may wonder why am i still working on my book since i don't have a green light from the publisher in the first place? Well I personally believe in my book idea and think that although it might not sell 50,000 copies it does have good potential and compared to most book in the field, will have a much longer shelf life. So my goal is to have the book published no matter what.
So at this point in time, in addition to writing the book itself, I've been researching "Plan B" options which include self publishing. Right now, I am looking into self-publishing avenues and am definitely considering Lightning Source (LSI) as a good prospect. They do POD (Print-on-demand) but from what i read is that they have good quality and since they are part of Ingram, it guarantees that me book will be available to most book stores and definitely listed on Amazon and such on-line stores. The reality is that many self-publishing service companies actually use LSI under the hood and I'd rather deal straight with the printer/distributor than a middlemen.
Self-publishing this route does have some consequences at least on my end. This means i will need to take care of several aspects publishing, including:
This leads me to some questions that needs answering...

Economic downturn reflected at Southwest Florida schools
In lunch lines and elsewhere, signs of vanished wealth
Published: Monday, September 21, 2009 at 1:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, September 20, 2009 at 10:43 p.m.
Hit hard by layoffs and paycuts, more Florida families than ever are turning to federal aid to feed their children at school.
Schools with the highest percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price meals:
Samoset Elementary, 94.8 percent
Daughtrey Elementary, 93.6 percent
Manatee Elementary, 91.4 percent
Orange Ridge Elementary, 88.2 percent
Rogers Garden, 85.1 percent
Booker High School will open its doors Saturday to distribute food, school supplies and books to students and families in the neighborhood who need those items.
The school will be open from 9 a.m. to noon, and the distribution will take place in Building 11.
This is the second year the school is collecting and distributing items to families in need as part of its Booker Helping Booker program. Last year, the program served 456 people.
Booker will continue the program throughout the school year, with distributions on the third Saturday of every month.
Organizers are also looking for donations of non-perishable food items. To donate, people can either call the school at 355-2967 or e-mail teacher Deb Witham at email@example.com.
Even in Southwest Florida, long seen as an area of affluence, the number of children qualifying for the federal government's free or reduced lunch program has risen sharply this year.
For the first time, more than half of Manatee County students -- some 22,000 children -- meet income guidelines that qualify them for government assistance.
In Sarasota County schools, almost 45 percent of students are eligible for free or reduced meals, a six-point jump from last year. Qualifying for free or reduced lunch is a commonly used by school officials as an indicator of poverty.
Statewide, about 49 percent of students qualified for lunch assistance last year, up from about 45 percent in 2005-06. In Sarasota in 2005-06, only 32 percent of students received government help.
The effect is felt daily in area schools, where teachers and administrators see students who are stressed out, emotionally troubled or just plain hungry because their families are having trouble making ends meet.
Some students have behavioral issues because one of their parents had to take a job out of state, said Nancy Beal, principal at Williams Elementary School in Parrish.
"We might have issues in the classroom because they only see dad once a month," Beal said.
Children from a family of four qualify for free meals if the household income is less than $28,665, or for reduced prices if the income is less than $41,000.
"It's families that had two incomes that now have one, families who have had a significant reduction of income based on a job change, families whose budgets are stretched tighter and tighter," said Sandy Ford, Manatee director of food and nutrition.
The biggest jump in children needing assistance came in North Port, a south Sarasota County city that has endured a high number of job losses and home foreclosures.
Administrators at North Port High expect the number of students who qualify for aid to reach 55 percent, a 16-point jump from a year ago.
Principal George Kenney said some students are skipping meals to save money. Others turn up tired for school because they work evening jobs to help their families.
"They're stressed out and may not be getting the rest that they should or eating like they should," Kenney said.
Even schools in once-booming East Manatee have seen the number of students living in poverty rise by as much as 5 percent.
At Willis Elementary School, more families have asked for help buying school uniforms, said Principal Bill Stenger.
The economic downturn has meant that more schools -- including Booker Middle School in Sarasota and Palmetto Elementary School in Manatee -- qualify for extra federal funding because more than 75 percent of students qualify for free or reduced price lunches.
Schools can use the money to hire more teachers or give students more tutoring.
That includes Manatee Elementary School in Bradenton, where more than 90 percent of students are in the program.
About 300 students eat breakfast at the school. More than 95 percent of the students eat lunch for free.
"The kids are getting a good breakfast and a good lunch, which is good for their health and mental development," said Principal Helen Abernathy.
The troubled local job market, where jobs have disappeared and some employees are now under-employed, is the main reason for the spike in families needing help.
"Nobody can seem to find any kind of work; people are finding their hours have been cut back," said Deb Bailey, Manatee's homeless student coordinator. "Even when they have a job, it's not providing a living wage for them."

text: Vector V1 is 8.94 units long and points along the -x axis. Vector V2 is 4.13 units long and points at +35.0° to the +x axis. (a) What are the x and y components of each vector? so i got V1x=-8.94 and V1y=0 which is right but i dont know how to get the V2x and V2y i got V2x=4.99 or 5.00 and V2y=-2.76 but i got it wrong. I solved for V by using V= V1 + V2 so i got V=-8.94 + 4.13 = -4.81. i got V2x by using Vx=Vcos(angle) so Vx=-4.81cos(35) = -3.94. Then i did -3.94=-8.94 + V2x and solved for V2x which i got 4.999 or 5.00. I got V2y by using Vy=Vsin(angle) so Vy=-4.81sin(35) = -2.76. Then i used Vy=V1y + V2y which is -2.76 = 0 + V2y and solved for V2y and got -2.76. Am i doing this right? if i'm not how do i solve for them???

A butterfly in its natural habitat just stayed on the flower long enough for me to get a shot of it! Thanks you're beautiful.

A good shot and i like the vivid use of colour, however i would have not cropped in so tight on the subject as it is nice to see some space around the butterfly. I like the clear background the detail captured.

Hi Gavin,
Its a good close-up, but as fish mentioned above its a bit too cramped in the frame.
Two mods for you, forst is some general tweaks to improve it overall, second is a rough example of a better crop.
I have balanced the colour, - used curves to set a white point, then desaturated about - 15, - seems to be over saturated on my screen. Then sharpened quite a bit, - you need to sharpen after you re size. My USM setting were: Amount = 80%; Radius - 0.8; Threshold = 3.
Second mod has more space bottom and right to lift the head out of the corner, - done quickly, so it doesnt look pretty.
Hope you find this constructive and helpful,

Neither here nor there. The only plane of sharpness is right in the bottom right corner - the rest is very blurred. You either needed to be further away to show the whole insect reasonably sharp or much closer for just the head shot.
No mention of flash, so assume you used natural light which can make life very difficult with respect to aperture choice.

I love the colours and the off focus and all.
