As the Korean economy continues to worsen and the won's value decreases, the number of foreign English teachers in the country is bound to drop too. Where will all these teachers go? They might just go home.
Kent Holiday taught English in Korea for a short time, then went to work for Korea Telecom where he eventually became a top executive (with a six-figure income) and, unbelievably, quit to go back to his original profession — teaching English, but with a twist. He is the CEO of Eluetian, a company based in Wyoming that teaches "English to Koreans of all ages using Skype, the free online calling and person-to-person video service." With nearly 15,000 Korean students and 300 teachers it "is one of Wyoming's fastest-growing businesses" and is expected to expand.
"Our plan was never to be a company that had a few thousand subscribers," Holiday said. "It's a $100 billion market just between Korea, Japan and China, and so we wanted to be the leader and we wanted to have millions of users."
Considering private tutors charge 40-60,000 won an hour and Eluetian charges only $150 a semester, with bona fide teachers doing the tutoring, this may be the answer to a lot of Korean parents' and their children's English needs.

The clip sex while pregnant from Knocked Up (2007) with Katherine Heigl, Seth Rogen
Come on, harder.
I can't do it harder.
Why? Come on. Come on, just do it. Deeper.
I can't.
Oh, why?
I'll poke the baby if I go deeper.
Oh, Come on! Just do it!
Please, don't yell at me, please don't.
What? The doctor and Debbie said it's fine. Come on!
Look, can we... I'm sorry, can we change positions?
I'm gonna crush the baby. I know it.
This is ridiculous! Why are we...
No, it's not.
There's no shell in there, you know?
Millions of people have sex when they're pregnant!
I don't know how it works. It just works, okay? Just do it.
All I'm thinking of is that I'm gonna...
I weigh over 200 pounds.
Just get over it!
I can't do it. Can you just get on top?
All I see is our baby getting poked in the face by my penis.
Trust me, you're not even close.
Come on, fine.
Okay, fine.
Ow, ow, ow, ow.
That's okay.
Okay. Oh, good.
I can't. I can't.
I can't. I can't do this, I just... I can't. I can't.
I can't focus like this.
I look disgusting from this angle. I can feel you looking up at my chins.
I know I look gross.
No, you look beautiful.
Your chin looks so skinny.
And my boobs are all, like, squishy, and they're flopping around.
I can feel it, and it's distracting.
It's all National Geographic.
Okay. Can we do... Do you wanna do doggie style?
No. I do not want you to fuck me like a dog.
I'm not fucking you like a dog. It's doggie style.
It's just the style. It's not...
It's not like a dog. We don't have to go outside or anything.
Here we go. Okay.
Okay, is it good?
Should I go slower?
Yeah, no, that's good.
Okay, faster?
Just tell me when you're close.
Just go harder.
Keep going!
Oh, God.
Oh, fuck!
What happened?
Oh, my God.
The baby, it kicked my hand.
Well, no, no, it always kicks.
No, no, no. Not like this.
No, it's fine. It's fine. Just keep going.
It was a warning kick. This was a bad kick.
No, no, it's fine. It's fine! It's fine!
Look, my dick must be like an inch away from its face, and it's coming, just coming in at its face.

Asking a girl to describe her ideal penis will normally result in one of two possible outcomes: you'll either be met with a slap to the face or a quick "Yours, of course" depending on your previous relationship.
Consequently, it's not always easy to get an honest answer to that question.
However, we somehow managed to get a few women who were willing to sit down with a pad of paper and some colored pencils to draw what they want to see on the lower half of the shirtless men on the cover of romance novels.
I assume these will be displayed at an independent gallery in SOHO sometime in July once people realize it's true art.

How do I use a
ConcurrentLinkedQueue in Java?
Using this
LinkedQueue, do I need to be worried about concurrency in the queue? Or do I just have to define two methods (one to retrive elements from the list and another to add elements to the list)?
Note: obviously these two methods have to be synchronized. Right?
EDIT: What I'm trying to do is this: I have a class (in Java) with one method to retrieve items from the queue and another class with one method to add items to the queue. The items added and retrieved from the list are objects of my own class.
One more question: do I need to do this in the remove method:
while (queue.size() == 0){
I only have one consumer and one producer.

Gelatin hardened with alum can be surprisingly tough. The historic Woodburytype print process used a hardened gelatin relief to mould lead sheet by direct pressure. The lead could then be repeatedly inked or flooded with a gelatin/carbon mix and the image transferred to paper. Alternatively, a plaster cast could be made which reproduces the relief of the gelatin layer.
Direct carving of ceramics to create relief was the norm in earlier times, but was expensive and required skilled craftsmen, so was unlikely to have been used for door-to-door sales in the 30s. I suspect that a soft metal foil was burnished onto a gelatin relief, paint or other colourants flooded into the relevant areas, and then plaster or other ceramic cast into the resulting mould. Not a technique for large scale production, but for a one-off it would work well enough and would be simple and cheap.
There is a fair bit of information about Woodburytypes online, but this page in particular talks about some of the ceramic variants:

If his final challenge had not been a team effort, Twin Cities designer Raul Osorio felt he might have made it further on "Project Runway."
"I don't think I do very well on team challenges because I don't like to compromise my vision," Osorio said Friday, Aug. 17, the day after he was eliminated from the Lifetime reality series. "I obviously didn't win the challenge, but I didn't think it should have been me going home."
The Minneapolis designer was sent packing in the fifth episode after a top with ruffles he constructed did not impress the judges. Osorio had already been eliminated two episodes earlier, during another team challenge. But he was brought back the very next episode after another designer walked out on the competition and a replacement was needed.
On the Thursday episode, Osorio told judges his teammate Elena Slivnyak, the 28-year-old designer out of San Francisco, should be sent home. He reiterated that opinion to Slivnyak backstage after his elimination, which he said he now regrets. "What I ended up telling Elena, I think I could have left on a better note," he said.
Osorio, who turns 28 on Wednesday, said he felt it was fair the way he was portrayed on the show.
"I think that they did a good job showing who I am," he said. "That was my work and I liked it -- it's who I am as a designer."
On his website, Osorio describes his work as a "juxtaposition of hard lines, soft textures, masculine silhouettes and feminine lightness" as well as an "attention to tailoring.
Osorio said it's been an exhausting ride and looks forward to sitting back and watching the rest of the season, in which he thinks Christopher Palu, 24, of Massapequa, N.Y., should win.
"It's about talent, but also about personality. I think Christopher has what it takes to do it," Osorio said. "Also, he's my buddy ... of course I'm going to root for him."

Six Ways to Start Thinking More Rationally
Techniques for Philosophy is understood as a rational investigation of principles and truths. Deep thinkers use certain techniques to analyze problems. But how can we begin to think more rationally?thinking.
Clearly, these methods force an individual to alter their perception of concepts through creative thinking. By applying these elements to sound inquiry intellectual tenets can be developed in a structured fashion.
Check for Logical Fallacies
Too often we are blinded by the use of complex rational that falls apart under careful analysis. In fact, common errors in reasoning often occur unintentionally and are genuine mistakes. The skill to identify these miscues is of incalculable valuable in argument and rhetoric.
Stay with Problems Longer
Its not that Im so smart, its just that I stay with problems longer. -Albert Einstein.
This one speaks for itself. Persistence of thought leads to Eureka moments.
Be a Skeptic and Credulous Simultaneously
Question everything, but be open to the possibility of anything This point is less about being balanced, but more about going back and forth. True, it is usually better to avoid extremes, though the hypothetical nature of this exercise allows for its utility. Never believe something as is, but also avoid becoming too sure of the nature of things. A philosopher is an open-minded skeptic.
Lingual Analysis and Metaphor
This is intrinsic to the deduction of logic. Many philosophical problems are really language problems. It is important to be able to abstract a concept and explain it from a different perspective. Contemporary languages often face difficulties in articulating complex, often abstruse, ideas. This leads to the necessity of metaphors, which eventually contribute to the evolution of a language. Ask any Philosophy Grad Student, who spends hours over a small passage trying to figure out what the author really means, how important this skill is. Remember that ineffability says nothing about an experience or idea, but only about the language being used to describe it.
Thought Experiments
This relates back to point two, as it entails broadening the mental process through hypothesis. In philosophy, thought experiments have been used at least since classical antiquity, some pre-dating Socrates. As imagination trumps empiricism, subjunctive thought is then applied to real world scenarios. From Borels monkeys to Schrödingers cat, being able to stretch known principles elucidates certain truths. Einsteins mathematics often began with thought experiments, allowing him to develop the notion of warped space-time. Being able to seriously consider an impossible situation allows for us to scrutinize and develop ideas and principles in a way that transcends the limits of human experience and experiments .
Constant Reassessment of Values
Perhaps, this trait leads to the stereotyping of the philosopher as liberally embracing counterculture. While having a strong set of core values is important to character, a certain plasticity of mind is necessary for lateral thinking. If you cant explain why you believe something, then dissect it. Unanalyzed, obsessive thought process results in both coarse deliberation and destructive action. This point highlights the importance of introspection.

Great advice until people start labeling you as 1. someone who focuses on the negative 2. and never lets things go, 3. is paranoid 4. and over analyses everything, which lead to 5. you going completely insane 6. and doubting your every move.
Here's my advice: Right or wrong, be confident.

So says the Boston Herald. That's three teams that have actually met with him, and three others who have been linked to him, in addition to the Angels.
Lackey is clearly the best pitcher available, but you know what's odd?
- Lackey, 2008-2009: 340 innings, 3.79 ERA, 4.10 FIP, 118 ERA+
- Randy Wolf, 2008-2009: 405 innings, 3.76 ERA, 4.07 FIP, 120 ERA+
And have you seen anyone (other than the Brewers) linked to Wolf yet?

Jimmy Fallon: When the New York City subways stop using tokens in May, it will signal the end of "token sucking," the practice of thieves putting their mouths on the turnstiles and sucking out a recently used token. For those who miss the sensation of putting your mouth on a subway turnstile, the MTA recommends making out with Mickey Rourke.
Tina Fey: Sony has created a cuddly humanoid robot that performs a song and dance routine and can carry on simple conversations with humans. They have named it Wayne Brady. Yeah! I got you, Wayne Brady!
Jimmy Fallon: The new trend in fashion for women this summer is expected to be short-shorts with some inseams being reduced to less than 2 inches. While men will mostly likely make a return to wearing the classic boner.
Tina Fey: Darryl Strawberry was released from a Florida prison Tuesday after serving 11 months for violating is probation on cocaine possession charges. (looks at watch) 3, 2, 1... and he's been arrested again.
Tina Fey: The annual White House Easter egg hunt is scheduled for next week. President Bush told reporters he still has no definitive knowledge where the eggs might be or if they are in fact, alive or dead. Regardless, the administration says it plans to spend $70 billion looking for the eggs, and than not find them.
Tina Fey: It is rumored that Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez want to star in a remake of Casablanca. This will be the perfect film for people who liked the original but wished it was terrible.
Jimmy Fallon: US Soldiers have been given packs of 55 playing cards which feature pictures of leaders the Bush administration wants them to kill or capture. The cards include Saddam Hussein, Tarik Haziz, and Michael Moore.
Jimmy Fallon: A South Carolina man named Harlan Titus was arrested for setting as many as 70 dogs lose from a shelter last week. So after three long years, the question has finally been answered: Harlan Titus let the dogs out.

'Tis truly a work of art..How did you create such a master piece?
I love everything about this! Your art is amazing!
Great piece of work!
really good
I see what you did with her eyes in the reflection... not bad, not bad at all.
Luna: "Chrysalis. How are you?"
Chrysalis: "Oh, it's you. I barely recognized you under that cloak. Is this what you've been reduced to, Luna? Has Celestia sent you to negotiate?"
Luna: "In a manner of speaking."
*gust of wind parts cloak, revealing battle armor*
This is an awesome piece about Luna.
Wish you high bids for the auction.

Only two words can describe what I think about this picture, FREAKING AWESOME!
Freakin' AMAZING, I LOVE IT. This is straight up one of the single best Pony pictures I have seen, and I've seen alot... GREAT JOB!
Amazing image! The mysterious princess of the night studies her lands...
Great job with ambiance! Princess Luna looks regal in her armor and the slight smile, with an air of mystery from the cloak and the purple glow to her mane. The dark sky is a marvelous work of art in and of itself, with a nice transition from cool blues to a surprisingly bright purple. The clouds are excellently drawn, vast stretches of black where the stars cannot be seen, except the edges that are lit by the moon.
However, the best part of this piece, and also the most subtle, is the reflection. At first, it just seems a nicely done blurred version of what was above the pond - just the important features of Luna and the moon shine through. The moon is nicely distorted by the water. Then, you notice Luna's eyes - though her eyes are normal, the reflection gleams with magic, shining brighter than her mane. Even more interesting, is the smile of the reflection that is not present in the real Luna.
I personally would interpret this mysterious reflection as a manifestation of the darkness of Nightmare Moon that still resides in Luna. (Don't tell me the real thing if its spoilers please! I try to keep away from them.)
But yes, this is a superb work of art, with amazing attention to detail and mood. Thank you very much for this!
I love the idea of Luna in armor. I see the Royal Sisters as the kind of rulers that aren't afraid to get their hooves dirty.
Oh, wow. She's gorgeous here.
luna's my ambassador of everything ♥_♥......
wait what's that thing coming off the back of her neck?....

While I agree you used a simple composition, I like the simple composition in this picture! It brings focus to Luna, the central idea in this picture. I love her mane. It is beautiful and glowy...like her eyes
Hermoso trabajo, hermosa Princesa, se ve muy bien.......
so awesome!
I can't believe it but you actually made this too epic. Well done!
There's only one word needed to describe this picture, regal.

Brilliant and amazing!

Is the above really how you started dialogue? If so it may have some bearing on the outcome.

Non DC Titles...
Irresistible #2

I was surprised to see that
Irresistible #3
was out already. I didn't even know that
had come out. Fortunately I was able to get a copy. Looks like the comic shops got more copies in, so
, if you're still interested, you might be able to get some back issues of both this and
Comic Con Girl
. They still go fast though. I got the last copy of
. I think this series is the highlight of the week. They really kicked up the racy sexual content big time in both the writing and the art, and the story itself is compelling with events that have consequences.
I also got around to reading the first issue of something I picked up last year...
The Beauty #1
It's about a modern world like our own, but where a sexually transitted disease has infected half the population. This "disease" however seems to have mostly positive effects. It causes the infected to become better looking and fitter, but with a slight fever (not enough to affect their day to day living though). Most people want it, and it's only one sexual encounter away. However, some groups out there see it as a danger and lash out with terrorist attacks. One day, a woman dies on the subway due to internal combustion. It's thought to be another terrorist attack on the Beauty and its carriers, but it seems that she died of "natural" causes. Could the Beauty be responsible? Our team of cops, which includes an attractive young woman who has been infected, are on the case.
Top Cow put out this one issue as part of their Pilot Season. It could have been a one off isue and I read it thinking that it was, but found out that it got enough votes to make it to series. Read about the news
. And you can also read the entire first issue online
Okay, back to DC Comics... I can't wait to get to the other #0 issues. Most of the ones I've read so far have been pretty good. I especially enjoyed the Batman origin stuff.

It's Not So Far-Fetched To Be Worried About France
The U.S.'s gold-standard credit ratings are the fixed point around which modern finance has charted its course, so naturally the clear prospect of a downgrade has fixated the entire investment world.
With the world's largest state debtor wallowing in the shallows like some beached whale, surely it would be blinkered euro-skepticism of a lunatic order to worry about France's credit standing instead?
Doesn't the Fifth Republic share those top-notch, triple-A ratings with the U.S., but—a crucial difference—with the emollient 'stable outlooks' that mean the Great Arbiters at Standard & Poor's and Moody's are relaxed about it keeping them?
Well, yes.
But while the financial world was watching Capitol Hill last week, offering up febrile prayers for a ceiling-smashing bill, the International Monetary Fund quietly wondered whether France could hang on to its platinum credit card. Last Wednesday it warned that the country would miss its 3% budget deficit target for 2013 unless it took further steps to cut spending, which were also needed to safeguard—guess what—its credit rating.
"France cannot risk missing its medium-term fiscal targets given the need to strengthen implementation of the Stability and Growth Pact and keep borrowing costs low by securing France's AAA rating," the IMF staff report said.
France already has the highest deficit, debt and primary deficit of any top-rated euro-zone country. Moreover, its government debt as a percentage of gross domestic product is 84%, which compares with 77% for the U.K. and a comparatively chaste 64% for the U.S.
Unlike those maddeningly lucky or well-run economies at the top of the triple-A tree, Switzerland, Norway, Canada and Australia et al, it's going to take a miracle for these three to hang on. They'll have to implement, then deliver, years of highly uncharacteristic state austerity. And they'll probably have to do it against a backdrop of agonizingly slow economic growth, if any, falling tax takes and rising unemployment. Good luck with that.
France will also hold presidential elections in 2012; these are not times when candidates like to play Scrooge; and, in any case, the opposition Socialist Party is implacably opposed to current incumbent Nicolas Sarkozy's plans to write a balanced budget into the constitution. It's not buying austerity.
And there is another important wrinkle in any chance of a French downgrade that doesn't apply to the Anglo-Saxon pair. France's triple-A rating doesn't just stand behind the Fifth Republic anymore. It stands behind the euro zone's chief bailout mechanism, the European Financial Stability Facility. Thanks to recent beefing up, the EFSF should soon be authorized to lend up to €440 billion in support of any struggling member state locked out of the markets, with a total guarantee capacity of €780 billion.
At the moment, its borrowings are rated triple-A, but that's largely thanks to the presence the euro zone's twin, top-rated titans, Germany and France, as guarantors. There are other triple-A states in the mix of course--Luxembourg, Finland, the Netherlands and Austria--but the big two bring the real firepower and economic depth.
As Rabobank put it this week, "an important question, and one to which the rating agencies have yet to provide an answer, is how a downgrade to the rating of the participating guarantor countries (particularly the largest AAA countries of Germany, France and the Netherlands) would affect the credit rating of the EFSF."
Now there are very good reasons why the agencies haven't answered this. At the moment, the ratings in question are stable, and they needn't deal in hypotheticals, even when they aren't circling like vultures over the U.S.
But the most likely consequence of a French downgrade would be a smaller EFSF, with a more limited ability to lend. "Its lending capacity would drop," says UBS UBS -0.26 % strategist Simon Penn, even if it's tough to say by how much.
In any case that would hardly suit financial markets, already worried that the fund is too small to stand behind Spain or Italy should the need arise.
It probably wouldn't suit the German electorate, either; Germany left naked as sole major guarantor, once again, as yet another, less prudent nation folds.
Unhappily, France is also the country with the greatest overall exposure to Greek debt. According to the last quarterly data from the Bank for International Settlements, French institutions had nearly $57 billion of Greek debt on their books (though Germany was revealed to be the biggest single holder of Greek government paper, with close to $23 billion).
Little wonder, then, that the premium demanded by investors for holding French bonds rather than German bunds more than doubled in the two weeks leading up to the Greek bailout deal announced on July 21.
And we needn't stray too far into the realm of fantasy to imagine a future Greek debt crisis requiring a vast rescue of French banks that finally puts paid to France's triple-A rating, undermines the EFSF and, well, so on down the line.
The ancient Romans used to look at their endemically corrupt city guard and wonder gloomily "who watches the watchmen." The modern Greeks, Irish and Portuguse may well look at the credit ratings of France, creaking ominously behind the façade of the EFSF, and wonder who will bail out the bailers.

When I started on my journey to lose unwanted and health destroying "retirement weight" I had accumulated, I decided to do it right and enlist some help to "get 'er done"! With a gym membership and a great physical trainer I began to see tiny, yet positive, changes in my body shape and strength. Those were the rewards that I would celebrate! ...no matter how tiny they seemed. Reward came from within and I did not depend on others to validate my progress. Decisions at the journey's start...

Thinking Small Makes for Large Changes
Byline: By Howard Walker
The biggest shake-up in company law for 20 years is due to hit the statute books in 2006. Howard Walker looks at the likely effects on North-East business and whether it will be a case of reform or just more red tape.
Little is calculated to make the average company director run a mile more than the thought of new legislation.
And when that legislation promises to be the most wide-ranging to affect businesses for two decades, that mile is likely to turn into a marathon.
However, the Company Law Reform Bill claims to be different. The bill, which is due to become law later this year, was compiled following an Independent Company Law Review which made 150 recommendations on how the rules and regulations governing company activity could be improved.
Their proposals were based around better regulation and a "Think Small First" approach to be mindful of the impact of legislation on small businesses; making it easier to set up a company; encouraging shareholder engagement and "a long-term investment culture" and providing more flexibility for the future.
The result of these recommendations is a bill which is claimed to offer a total estimated saving of pounds 250m to UK businesses.
New laws which make things easier and save money? Is such a thing possible? Well, the answer in some cases would appear to be "yes".
For example, the bill proposes to simplify and streamline a lot of the decision-making processes for small businesses, making the "Think Small First" mantra a reality.
Small companies will no longer have to hold an annual general meeting, unless shareholders insist on one.
Also, more fluidity should be introduced into the process of mergers and acquisitions as the bill proposes that there will no longer be a prohibition on private companies providing financial assistance when it comes to buy-outs.
"This should be a real boost for the buy-out market in the North-East where small buy-outs are prevalent," says Emma Sewell, associate in the corporate department at Newcastle law firm Ward Hadaway. "Currently the whitewash procedure adds significant expense, which can make some MBOs economically unviable."
These sort of proposals have met with almost universal approval from groups including the North East Chamber of Commerce and the CBI.
"We strongly support the vast majority of the bill's proposals and we think that modernising the law will make business more accessible, less bureaucratic and less costly," says Sarah Green, regional director of the CBI.
However, there is an unspoken "but" ( other aspects of the bill are more controversial.
These are centred on the area of directors' duties and corporate social responsibility and are aimed at making companies more accountable, not only to their shareholders but to employees, suppliers and for the impact their business activities has on the environment.
Emma Sewell explains: "The bill proposes to codify directors' duties. Many of these proposed statutory duties reflect the current position but there are new duties placed on directors such as acting in a way that is most likely to promote the success of the company for the benefit of its shareholders as a whole.
"This new duty means that the director must, so far as reasonably practicable, have regard to the likely long term consequences of his actions, the interests of employees, the need to foster relationships with suppliers, customers and others, the impact of operations on the community and the environment, the desirability of maintaining a reputation for high standards of business conduct and the need to act fairly between members of the company."
Quite a list to consider when you're deciding where or whether to place a new contract.
Added to this provision are proposals for new statutory rights for shareholders to bring actions against directors on behalf of companies, all making corporate social responsibility something rather more than a few warm words at the end of the annual report. …

I'm wanting to replace the 30mm Ritchey Speedmax tires on my Bianchi Axis since they are getting worn out. After I saw pics of a Ti Moots 'cross bike with a 44mm tire in the front and a 37mm one in the rear I was thinking of doing this (it looks kinda cool), except I don't have room for tires quite this big so I was going to do a 35 in the front and a 32 in the rear.
Is there much sense in this? I do take my bike off road and it seems to handle very difficult sections quite well, but I would like something to take big hits on rocky "moonscapes". Has anybody else have their cross bikes set up like this?

text: Meg Ryan to Narrate How I Met Your Dad She'll have the same role Bob Saget did in 'Mother' By Evann Gastaldo, Newser Staff Posted Apr 24, 2014 9:32 AM CDT STORY COMMENTS (3) (Newser) – Looks like Meg Ryan's TV-based comeback is in full swing: She's set to narrate How I Met Your Dad, the Greta Gerwig-starring How I Met Your Mother spin-off that could be coming to CBS (if the network orders the pilot to series). Ryan would essentially have the same role narrator Bob Saget did on Mother, narrating the story of her younger self, as played by Gerwig, the Los Angeles Times reports. Ryan will also be the star of a new, as-yet-untitled sitcom on NBC about a single mom. Meg Ryan poses for the media during a photo call to promote the movie "The Women" in a central hotel in Berlin on Wednesday, Nov. 26, 2008.

When Brian McGuinn got married to his wife over five years ago, he never imagined that her 1.5-carat, $10,000 diamond engagement ring would end up in a landfill.
But that's exactly what happened on the night of October 30, when McGuinn accidentally tossed out the custom-designed platinum ring in the bathroom trash -- along with his disposable razor.
After realizing his mistake, McGuinn called the nearby Wheelabrator dump in Pompano Beach, where 2,250 tons of solid waste is processed each day. Wearing a mask, thick leather gloves, a hard hat and a full protective suit, he waded through nine tons of garbage and 10-foot high piles of rotting trash -- determined to retrieve the ring himself.
Although it seemed impossible at the time, McGuinn kept on: "I had a fighting chance," he told the Miami Herald. And 90 minutes later, McGuinn miraculously found the treasured ring -- covered in disgusting black sludge, but still intact.
After getting the ring thoroughly cleaned at the jewelers, Brian McGuinn drove to the office where his wife, Anna McGuinn, worked -- and slipped the ring back on her finger. "It was unbelievable," his wife said. "I'm never taking it off again."
That's not the first wedding ring mishap -- click in the slideshow below to see other major ring disasters and near-disasters.
Disaster struck when Don Walling proposed to girlfriend Gina Pellicani in 2009, at the Brooklyn Bridge's pedestrian walkway. But it wasn't because she said no -- in fact, it wasn't Pellicani's fault at all. It was Walling himself who dropped the ring through a crack in the bridge onto the busy roadway below. Although the couple (and onlookers) were horrified at first, Walling was able to retrieve the ring -- and only the band was bent in the fall. Looks like it ended happily ever after.
Santa Ana Zoo visitor Sheila Clark was walking through the Amazon's Edge exhibit when her wedding ring and her engagement ring fell onto the deck where she was standing. Although she managed to save her wedding ring, her engagement ring fell -- right into the eight-foot watery exhibit. Luckily, with the help of Zoo Director Kent Yamaguchi (who waded into the muck himself), Clark was reunited with her ring.
After a long night of handing out candy on Halloween in 2009, Ohio woman Elizabeth Olson suddenly noticed that her 3-diamond anniversary ring had gone missing. In the process of tossing out candy into pillow cases and buckets, she had thrown in her ring too. No word yet if the ring has been found.
In August 2010, Matt Cawley proposed to girlfriend Stacey Scanlon at a Cape Cod rock jetty overlooking the ocean. But Scanlon's excitement turned to dread as she dropped the heavy $9K ring, which was attached to an oversized sand dollar. The ring fell somewhere in between the rocks, and despite the efforts of the couple, lifeguards and beach-goers -- the ring was gone.
In May 2009, Anna Laskey lost her engagement ring after leaving it on the bathroom floor of a luxury hotel in England (she was bathing her daughter and forgot to put it back on until the next day). Laskey feared the ring would be lost forever, but ring was found in the bag of a vacuum cleaner used by the park - the only machine out of 30 that had not been emptied the same day.
After touring the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series garage at the Michigan International Speedway as part of a fan promotion, Andrea Wieland couldn't find her ring -- anywhere. With the help of staff, friends and the MIS Facebook page, her 13-diamond ring was found a couple days later by a crew member (it was in the garage).

More On Legal & Compliancefrom The Advisor's Professional Library
- Do's and Don'ts of Advisory Contracts In preparation for a compliance exam, securities regulators typically will ask to see copies of an RIAs advisory agreements. An RIA must be able to produce requested contracts and the contracts must comply with applicable SEC or state rules.
- Differences Between State and SEC Regulation of Investment Advisors States may impose licensing or registration requirements on IARs doing business in their jurisdiction, even if the IAR works for an SEC-registered firm. States may investigate and prosecute fraud by any IAR in their jurisdiction, even if the individual works for an SEC-registered firm.
It's a nebula—or maybe mushroom cloud is a more apt description; morphing, changing, growing before our eyes.
The loss suffered by JPMorgan Chase & Co. (and its investors) is either attributed to the "London Whale" or "complacency," as CEO Jamie Dimon told Congress last week; one that began at $2 billion and was then estimated to grow to between $4 billion and $6 billion. The estimate of the estimate has now doubled, with Reuters reporting it could go as high as $9 billion, citing a person "familiar with the matter."
How did it happen, and why does the bill keep growing?
Derivatives, of course. In particular, the credit kind.
Initially, Dimon said he believed the trading losses could double in the next few quarters; instead, they tripled in the next few weeks. Part of this is good news (relatively speaking), according to The New York Times, and the larger amount reflects the bank's aggressive steps to unwind the losing bet as quickly as possible.
"The sharply higher loss totals will feed a debate over how strictly large financial institutions should be regulated and whether some of the behemoth banks are capitalizing on their status as too big to fail to make risky trades," the Times states.
The trouble all started with the bank's Chief Investment Office, whose risky trades returned more than $4 billion in profits in the last three years, accounting for roughly 10% of the bank's profit during that period. The office was designed to invest excess deposits for the bank and created to hedge interest rate risk.
"In its most basic form, the losing trade, made by the bank's Chief Investment Office in London, was an intricate position that included a bullish bet on an index of investment-grade corporate debt," the Times writes. "That was later combined with a bearish wager on high-yield securities."
In testimony before the House Financial Services Committee last week, Dimon said that the London unit had "embarked on a complex strategy" that exposed the bank to greater risks even though it had been intended to minimize them.
Hedge funds and other investors have "seized on the bank's distress, creating a rapid deterioration in the underlying positions held by the bank. Although Dimon has tried to conceal the intricacies of the bank's soured bet, credit traders say the losses have still mounted," according to the paper.
But while some hedge funds have compounded the bank's woes, others have been finding it profitable to help JPMorgan get clear of the losing credit positions.

Adam Sender has been collecting the pieces for a while, now, and he took careful work to get all of the right artworks. He wanted to do this right, and he has succeeded well.
When you have the money to buy all of the art that you want to buy, why not purchase it all? Adam Sender has bought many pieces over the years, and he has put together a collection that is stunning. Anyone who views it is going to be amazed at all of the pieces. It will be a beautiful thing, that is for sure.
There is so much that you can look for in art. Not everyone likes the same things, but when something is really good, then most people will agree on it. So, when you get multiple pieces of art and put them together in a collection, then pretty much everyone is going to be amazed. Pretty much everyone who sees the pieces will admire them and realize how well they all look together. Art is a beautiful thing, and when a collection of various works is put together, then it makes it even better. It makes people love the works of art even more than they would have if they had seen each piece on its own. A collection adds a depth to the art, and it truly is a beautiful thing when you can view a collection of great pieces.

Kittanning hazmat response drill involved simulated crash, accident scene
KITTANNING — Area residents and motorists traveling along Orr Avenue near Kittanning High School on Tuesday evening need not have been alarmed at an apparent accident scene and subsequent response from multiple fire departments.
It was just a drill.
Vince Cappo, coordinator of the Armstrong County Hazardous Operations Support Team, planned the simulation of a vehicle crash involving a gasoline tanker to check the hazmat response abilities of area firefighters.
The drill included a simulation of victim entrapment and treatment on scene.
Cappo said there are likely to be additional drills planned for next year.

Try photographing a black circle on a white background at various shutter speeds hand held. You will discover once the images are enlarged, that the circle becomes slightly oval at the slower speeds.
The longer focal length will make this even more pronounced. Try using a tripod if the situation allows, to get the best image quality out of your lenses
