Real Housewives of Atlanta: Kenya Moore Calls Porsha Stewart "Naive," "Heifer"
Real Housewives of Atlanta's Kenya Moore is not mincing words when it comes to her feelings about fellow newbie cast member Porsha Stewart.
Invited by Stewart -- boasting her pedigree as the granddaughter of civil rights leader Hosea Williams and the wife of ex-NFL star Kordell Stewart -- to a charity event on Sunday's episode, Moore couldn't help but rant about her costar within minutes of their first meeting.

"I was taken aback by Porsha -- she has a cheerleader-like quality to her. She seems very young and maybe a little naive," Moore reasoned after Stewart invited her to lunch to ask her to attend her charity event, only to turn around and prod for details about Moore's relationship status and thoughts on having kids.
"I've always had a deep sense of purpose in my life. I've always lived well," Stewart boasted during their conversation. "From the time I was 25, I knew I wanted to be married by 30, and the man of my dreams approached me at 27. Within that first year of marriage, I didn't have to vacuum, sweep or anything. My life is the s--t because I'm very very blessed. Everything I put in the universe and ask God for, it ends up happening."

Later, at Stewart's charity event -- showcasing a who's-who of successful Atlanta women -- Moore fumed when the hostess introduced her to the crowd as Miss America, instead of Miss USA 1993. "How do you get that wrong? It's not as if it's the biggest ordeal, but if Michelle Obama was there, and you called her the First Lady of Zimbabwe, that's sort of something you should know," Moore fumed before storming out of the event. "You courted me to come to your event, the least you could do is get my title right."
With Stewart out of earshot, Moore ripped into her during a phone conversation with pal Miss Lawrence. "This heifer gets on the microphone and calls me Miss America," she recounted. "I can't educate everyone. I didn't win Miss Congeniality -- I won Miss USA and I will cuss your ass out."

"I think Porsha's entire identity is basically resting on the coattails of everyone else. She's 'the wife of,' the 'granddaughter of'. She's not made a name for herself," Moore continued. "I didn't need anyone else to make me who I am. I made a name for myself. She pretty much needs to do the same."
NEWS: Cynthia Bailey says Kenya Moore is "ugly on the inside"
Elsewhere in Atlanta, Kim Zolciak was fuming for an entirely different reason: She was kicked out of the leased dream home she shares with husband Kroy Biermann and their three children. Running out of options for a place to stay, Zolciak and Biermann decided to return to the cramped townhouse she still owns -- but not before leaving their mark on the property she so loved.
"I told Kroy I was rippin' every last mother f---ing flower out of this house!" Zolciak fumed, when announcing her plans to recoup some of the $40,000 she invested in landscaping to spruce up the grounds prior to her November 2011 wedding. "That I paid for to be planted in this yard will be plucked out!"

Respond to Review of Kring
by vegansoul
Review: I ate here on a Sat night. I arrived at 21:00 and there was only one other table seated (3 ladies). The waiter was nice enough and could speak English (which is a blessing in a foreign country). There were many vegan salads to choose as well as main courses, but there were no main courses that were wheat-free and vegan. The staff was very nice and adjusted one of the meals for me to accomodate. I had Tempeh fillets with lettuce and potatoes. It was supposed to come with a ginger sauce (which contained dairy). They substituted delicious hummus in place of the ginger sauce. Very nice. Drink menu is only juice (some fresh squeezed), water, vegan milks (oat, almond and soy), non-alcoholic beer, tea and coffee. They have pictures of Sri Chimnoy all over their walls and play meditative music.

That major historical moments affect a language's development seems to be self-evident. But in the case of French, as Canadian authors Nadeau and Barlow (Sixty Million Frenchmen Can't Be Wrong) exhaustively illustrate, this notion shouldn't be taken for granted, since an insistence on linguistic purity influences how French is taught, spoken and written. What began as a loose confederation of local dialects became mired in a particularly French obsession with linguistic propriety. Despite the natural development of French over time, "[in] the back of any francophone's mind is the idea that an ideal, pure French exists somewhere." Nadeau and Barlow traveled the world to research what they call "the mental universe of French speakers" from its center in France to such places as Canada, Senegal and Israel. "French carries with it a vision of the State and of political values, a particular set of cultural standards," the authors write. They have managed to corral what could be an ungainly subject—both the history and the present day—in a clearly written, well-organized approach to the lingua franca of millions of people. Francophiles will be well-served by the care and detail with which the authors handle their subject, while English speakers will find an illuminating portrait of Gallic sensibility. (Nov.)

There are more French-speaking people in Israel than there are in Louisiana. The number of French speakers in the world has tripled since World War II. Nadeau and Barlow's history of French is chockablock with these sorts of intriguing facts about the language and its evolution (contrary to common belief, English was a major influence on French, not the other way around). The authors also offer fascinating commentary on the politics of language: despite the best efforts of purists, French, like other languages, is constantly changing and not just cosmetically--new and unconventional words are being adopted, as are new spellings and new grammatical constructions. From its mysterious origins as a conglomeration of other languages to the current squabble over the need to preserve its integrity, French has led one heck of an event-filled life. Sure to please fans of such language histories as Nicholas Ostler's Empires of the Word (2005). David Pitt

(NAPSI) - Your skin is responsible for protecting you from the world around you. In return, you can protect it from the ravages of sun, smoke and chemicals. Here are hints on how:
- Shun the sun. To reduce your risk of excess ultraviolet exposure—which can lead to premature aging, wrinkles and dry skin—try to avoid the midday sun and wear a sun protection factor of at least 15 whenever you do go out, anytime, any season, any weather.
- Don't smoke. In addition to other issues, smoking (and second-hand smoke) is bad for your skin and can lead to wrinkles.
- Drink (filtered water) to your health. You can keep yourself well hydrated from the inside out if you get your eight glasses a day. It doesn't all have to be water, but keep alcohol and sugary soft drinks to a minimum.
- Eat right. Foods rich in antioxidants, such as fruits and vegetables, can knock out free radicals that damage the skin. Broccoli, spinach, tomatoes, oats, kiwi, pomegranates and blueberries are some of the most antioxidant-rich choices you can make. Watch your salt intake, since sodium dries out the skin.
- Exercise your right to good skin. Those who are strong and physically fit have a wealth of lean muscle tone that helps prevent sagging skin and wrinkles. Aim for at least 30 minutes of exercise a day and be as active as you can—taking the stairs instead of the elevator, walking the dog often, riding a bike instead of driving to the store.
- Use a natural, anti-aging skin care product. Avoid chemical-laden skin creams; the chemicals and synthetic ingredients can do more harm than good. Skin care products made from 100 percent natural botanicals soothe even sensitive skin. For example, many women have found they can have softer, smoother, younger-looking skin overnight, and dramatically diminished wrinkles, when they use Trilane Anti-Aging Moisturizer with Squalane.
It brings together two extraordinary botanicals—ultrahydrating olive squalane and firming jojoba esters—into one pure, powerful, all-natural formula.
According to Dr. Aaron Tabor, a distinguished medical researcher, the product:
- Firms and lifts your skin
- Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
- Smooths and softens for a luxuriously silky feel
- Deeply nourishes and hydrates your skin
- Reduces dry, rough, flaky skin.
Your face can look richly hydrated with a luminosity you may not have seen in years.
The emollient-rich olive oil extract has the remarkable ability to make skin smooth, supple, moisturized and radiantly restored. Squalane works well even with the most sensitive skin because it occurs naturally in your skin. Plus, squalane is a powerful free-radical fighter to protect skin from premature aging.
Over the years, your natural supply of squalane diminishes, limiting your natural skin defenses against beauty robbers such as the sun, a sugar-laden diet and a dwindling estrogen supply. These age accelerators break down the collagen and elastin in your skin, resulting in sagging and wrinkles.
Because Trilane Anti-Aging Moisturizer is chemical-free, it can vanquish wrinkles and other signs of aging without irritation, itching, redness or swelling. It balances and tones every skin type—from dry to oily to combination skin.
The moisturizer has many more uses:
- Put it on your lips as a base for lipstick or for a dewy finish.
- Rub it into dry cuticles and hands for healing relief.
- Use it as a primer to make foundation glide on easily for a more natural look.
- Dab it on cheeks after applying blush for a youthful glow.
- Apply to elbows, knees and heels to smooth rough, flaky skin.
- Use it after a day outdoors to ease the effects of overexposure to sun or wind.
- Add a few drops to a warm bath to nourish dry skin.
- Rub it through your hair to tame frizz and impart shine.
To see how well Trilane Anti-Aging Moisturizer with Squalane works for you, call 1-800-931-9929 and find out how you can get a FREE full-size bottle, for just the cost of shipping and handling.

Re: Is this game lagging lately?SharkFans Mar 24, 2014 12:57 AM (in response to NandoEDP)
I'm having serious lag since yesterday (The 22nd of March, 2014). Makes Multiplayer completely unplayable. First i was getting constant crashing of the digital upload, now i'm just getting ridiculous lag and jumping all around the screen. Sometimes rubber banding back and fourth.
I know my connection is good. I'm able to stream HD content from say... netflix no problem. Having serious lag on both PS3 and PS4 (Nat type 2 on both consoles and Open Nat within game on both consoles). Speeds i'm getting are around 23MBPS Down and 5MBPS up so i know my connection isn't horrible. Up until last night was getting a minimal amount of lag from both console versions of the game. I hope this gets resolved soon. Sorta takes away the fun of playing multiplayer.

PSN is laggy. It's been that way for a few days. If you're in a clan you've probably noticed the 5 to 10 minute delay on invites and messages that started back on Wednesday. That part seemed to clear over the weekend thankfully. But a whole lot of matches were laggy as crap over the weekend. I remember one match where I literally was noobtubing guys in the head with DC and still couldn't kill them. I'm pretty sure they were from halfway across the globe and I can't for the life of me figure out how they ended up in my lobby but something is really screwy with PSN.

Thanks to all who attended the 8th Annual Mardi Gras Gala on February 6th! Hope to see you again next year.
Special thanks to our friends and sponsors that helped support the event. To learn about who participated in this year's gala, click here to view the Program Book.
About the Mardi Gras Gala
The EFEPA picked up the Mardi Gras Gala, a formal black-tie event, in 2008 as its signature event. Adapted from the traditional Mardi Gras held yearly in New Orleans, the Philadelphia-style Gala features an open bar complete with hurricanes, a three course French Creole sit-down dinner, lively Mummers' entertainment, and dancing to a nine piece band. A parade, extravagant decorations, beads, jesters, voodoo dolls, and masks all add to the festive décor.
Annually the Gala honors a new King or Queen of Mardi Gras, a prominent business or community leader in the eastern Pennsylvania area. Philadelphia's top neurologists, hospitals, pharmaceutical companies, and members from its business and legal communities join their royal leader for the evening. Together they come out to celebrate the Foundation and its accomplishments to improve the quality of life of individuals living with epilepsy and their caregivers.
Past Kings have been 2008 King, Tom McCormick, Vice President of Patient Services, University of Pennsylvania Health System; 2009 King, Stephen Wouch, CPA, CFF, Managing Partner of Wouch, Maloney & Co., LLP; 2010 King, Ted Riss, owner of Riss General Construction; 2011 King, Dr. Mike Cirigliano, Penn Medicine Internist and FOX 29 Health Reporter; 2012 King, Greg Osberg, Publisher and CEO of Philadelphia Media Network; 2013 King, Jim Connolly, CEO of Aeras, and 2014 Queen, Mary Meder, President of Harmelin Media. Click here to learn more about our Royal Court.
About our 2015 Honorees
This year the EFEPA is excited to honor a King and a Queen, Phylis and Arthur Johnson. Together they have been long-time advocates for those with epilepsy and the Foundation is thrilled to recognize the immense impact they have had on our community.
In addition to participating in the Foundation's programs, fundraisers and support groups, Phylis dedicates herself to her blog, www.EpilepsyTalk.com, which helps promote a greater understanding of epilepsy in order to increase awareness and funding for epilepsy services. Their generous support of the Epilepsy Foundation in the past has allowed us to increase our capacity to provide the best possible services to those with epilepsy. For instance, the Johnsons played an integral part in equipping the Camp Achieve Medical Staff with iPads so that they can quickly respond to medical emergencies and manage each camper's needs.
As she writes, "Together, we can make a huge difference. If not changing the world, at least helping each other, with wisdom, compassion and sharing." We cannot imagine a more perfect motto that encapsulates the altruistic spirit of these two individuals.
The Foundation also honors two individuals who have gone above and beyond to help those affected by epilepsy. This year, the EFEPA will honor internationally renown neurologist Michael Sperling, MD, Director of the Jefferson Comprehensive Epilepsy Center and Clinical Neurophysiology Laboratory with the Eric Burton Osberg Award. Likewise, Dan Dougherty of Glenside, PA will be awarded the Peggy and Charles Roach Founders Award for his years of epilepsy advocacy. You can learn more about Dan's courageous battle with epilepsy and his involvement in the community by clicking here.
Ways to Get Involved
There are many opportunities to get involved with the Mardi Gras Gala including sponsoring a table, individual tickets, or placing an ad in our program book. To learn more about sponsorships contact the EFEPA Development Department at (215) 629-5003 x107 or email@example.com.

Defense leads TCU to its biggest Big 12 victory of season
TCU 20, No. 18 Texas 13
AUSTIN, Texas TCU could get used to these Thanksgiving games. Given their first chance to play one since 1928, the Horned Frogs beat No. 18 Texas to get the biggest win of their first season in the Big 12.
Matthew Tucker scored two touchdowns, Jaden Oaberkrom kicked two field goals and TCU's defense forced four turnovers, three by Texas quarterback David Ash in the first half. Shortly after the Horned Frogs had dumped their old Southwest Conference rivals 20-13 on Thursday night, purple-clad fans sprinkled among the burnt-orange of Royal-Memorial Stadium chanted "T-C-U!"
"I'm going to probably get home some time tomorrow and go out in the street and yell," TCU coach Gary Patterson said.
The Horned Frogs (7-4, 4-4) picked off two passes near their own goal line to kill Texas scoring drives and picked up an Ash fumble at the Texas 16 that set up Tucker's second touchdown. The Horned Frogs also dominated the line of scrimmage, running the ball 48 times for 217 yards and passing just 10 times.
Ash was relieved by Case McCoy, who led a late touchdown drive before an interception by Sam Carter in the final two minutes sealed the win for TCU.
Although Texas (8-3, 5-3) has been a Thanksgiving regular since playing its first game on the holiday in 1895, those contests were usually against Texas A&M. But that rivalry broke apart when the Aggies left the Big 12 for the Southeastern Conference.
So the Big 12 sent TCU to Austin this year for one shot at the Longhorns — Texas will play Texas Tech on Thanksgiving next year — and the Horned Frogs nailed it with their first win over a ranked opponent this season.
"To put us on a Thanksgiving game, to be in this place, it's a long way since when I was here when we started 15 years ago," Patterson said. "We're growing as a football team."
Texas had won four in a row and came in the game with an outside shot at the Big 12 title or a BCS bowl bid with a win.
"We missed a great opportunity to get back in the mix for some things," Texas coach Mack Brown said. "You can't win a football game when you have four turnovers."
Texas hoped for a little McCoy family magic at the end. McCoy, younger brother of former Texas quarterback Colt McCoy, rallied the Longhorns in the fourth quarter last year against Texas A&M and rallied his team to a road win at Kansas this year.
Trailing 20-6, McCoy's scrambling feet and short passes led an 82-yard drive to a touchdown by Jeremy Hills with just over three minutes left. But after Texas forced TCU to punt, a scrambling McCoy threw up a pass into coverage that was easily intercepted by Carter.

The private bus transport service was initiated in 1907 with a mere 2 busses.
The two busses were deployed to the Colombo Chilaw rout by G.W Colts. Subsequently during the next 50 years many purchased busses and deployed them on many routes.
However according to an election pledge made by the United Front Government which assumed power in 1956, around 78 private bus companies were acquired by the government. This acquisition provided the employees of these private bus companies permanent jobs and availed them of many benefits.
The main disparity between the two transport services at the time was the bus fares. While the busses plying the hill country routes charged additional fares claiming the journey was hazardous,

Up to 200 of the best singlehanded sailors in the Western Hemisphere will descend on Long Beach for the 2014 Laser North American Championships and U.S. Singlehanded Championship in a combined regatta this week. The top eligible male Laser and female Radial sailor will be named U.S. Singlehanded Champions. The regatta will be hosted by the Alamitos Bay Yacht Club. Four days of racing gets underway Thursday, June 12 and concludes Sunday, June 15.
U.S. Singlehanded Sailing Championships 2013
Adults, juniors and masters, male and female, and members of the U.S. and Canadian national sailing teams and other competitors from Canada to the Caribbean and South America will race in three classes: Laser Full, Laser Radial and Radial 4.7.
Two of the top Americans, Charles Buckingham and Chris Barnard of Newport Beach, will have their sights set on both titles this week, as will the 2006 US Sailing's Rolex Yachtswoman of the Year and 2012 Olympian Paige Railey (Clearwater, Fla.). All three sailors are members of the US Sailing Team Sperry Top-Sider.
With the growth of one-design sailing in the U.S. and with ever more events in the sailing calendar, it became clear that the traditional qualifying series was limiting the number of sailors who could compete for the U.S. Singlehanded Championships.
Liz Walker, US Sailing Championship Director said, 'Our goal is to allow more people to have a chance to compete for these historic championships. As the Laser class is one of the largest singlehanded classes in the world, identifying the top U.S. singlehanded sailors this year through the North Americans is a natural fit.'
Who is eligible to be named U.S. Singlehanded Champion? Sailors must be at least 17 years of age in the calendar year and current members of US Sailing and the Laser class. All the sailors will be scored as one fleet with the highest eligible male Laser sailor winning the O'Day Trophy and the highest female Radial sailor winning the Hanley Trophy.
The race committee plans to run three races daily on trapezoid courses inside or outside the Long Beach Harbor breakwater starting at 12 p.m. PDT each day, conditions permitting.
For more information about the 2014 U.S. Singlehanded Championship, including real-time Twitter updates from the course, visit the event website.
The U.S. Singlehanded Championship is sponsored by Gill North America and Hobie Polarized Sunglasses. This is a Sailors for the Sea certified event.

absolutely amazing. Definitely trying the game out.
Pulsedrive will be a single-player experience of high speed.You will be able to choose between three different ships, which are accelerated by the pulse of music. Because the music becomes faster and faster it will be more and more difficult to steer your ship through the courses. The longer you are able to control your ship without crashing into the wall the higher will be your score. Your ship is limited in stability. Passing gates activate a multiplicator for points, which is increased when you pass gates one after the other.
We need some variable environment for our alpha because we will test many different color-settings and atmospheres. Therefore we have decided to create a collection of boards which consist of many small cubes.
Posted by unrealer2 on Oct 19th, 2011
At the moment we are heading straight to finish Pulsedrive Alpha and therefore we polish the already created content and focus the [w]tech to-do-list on it, as you can see here. We decided to make separated themes for tracks and environment and combine them later. An early version of our fist environment is already shown in the background of [w]techportal or in the head of our ModDB page. Now we have improved the boards and we want to give you some more detailed overview.
Main idea of this "cube-boards" are their variability. We have tried different settings, but I think there is much potential left, particular in combination with other objects.
In our old tests we used only the lighting system of [w]tech to illuminate the area around every single glowing cube. The framerate was quite good, thanks to Light-Pre-Pass, but somehow it is nonsense to have 200 dynamic lights in the scene which can be replaced by completely static lighting which is independ from the artists idea about the world, too. Only the color should be adjustable dynamically. Therefore we have decided to bake the lightmap for all three glowing cubes on every "cube - board" in three lightmaps per board which are saved together with Ambient-Occlusion in a RBGA texture, which is saved as a DDS file with DXT5 compression in the package. So this is a simple and efficient solution, because for the 22 different boards we need only 30mb at all and there is nearly no real time processing necessary but what is done anyway.
Here we have combined some boards to a small environment:
absolutely amazing. Definitely trying the game out.

Research Interests
Our research program deals broadly with the experimental elucidation of non-equilibrium electronic and structural dynamics of inorganic, organic, and biological materials with atomic-scale spatial and femtosecond temporal resolutions. To achieve this, we use ultrafast four-dimensional electron microscopy (UEM). With UEM, we bring together the high spatial resolution of transmission electron microscopy with the ultrafast temporal resolution of short-pulsed lasers. We are able to directly visualize, in real-time, a wide variety of phenomena, including how crystal lattices respond to the excitation and relaxation of charge-carriers, the collective and coherent motions of lattices at the unit cell level, the real-space dynamics of nanoscale architectures and the effects of interfacial forces, and the effects of charge-transfer reactions on structure. Our group is highly interdisciplinary and collaborative, and our interests are broad, having foundations in materials science and engineering, chemistry, and physics. Our current interests are in three related but distinct areas: (1) energy transport and conversion in polycrystalline materials, (2) structural dynamics, phase transitions, and energy transport properties of quantum materials and complex metal oxides, and (3) determining the atomic-scale origins of the dynamic properties of soft matter and biological materials. The unifying goal of our work is to understand how atomic structure and dynamics lead to the emergence of bulk properties in materials; that is, how quantum and continuum mechanics are linked and how properties in this mesoscale spatial regime can be controlled.

Every time I google a question about my bike, I always find the answer on here anyway so I figured I may as well become a member.
Name's Josh, I'm 22...like everyone else I've ridden a number of bikes since I was knee-high to a duck...latest whips are a red 70s Schwinn Cruiser, & a blue Lotus Elite fixed conversion. White Weinmann DP18, white 23c tires, & 46/15 gearing (which I love).
Just rode to Cleveland last weekend (63 miles), it was my first "big" adventure...looking forward to making increasingly longer trips in the near future.

WhiteLies Magazine is a biannually published culture publication positioned as a contributor to today's creative landscape. The main focus lies on Fashion and Art and especially how these subjects collide in photography. It is our aim to raise awareness for a new kind of aesthetic in fashion and photography through aesthetically pleasing content which creates an emotional impact with the readers.
The project which started out as a pure fashion magazine has connected with the creative scene on many different layers. We started to think outside of the box and experienced how aesthetics and trends from the fashion world translate in photography, architecture, art, music and design. Every magazine is powered by people who have specialised in this subject, it's an important subject that we support younger, unknown artists at the beginning of their careers and give them the chance to speak up through the magazine. Approaching fashion with naive amateur thoughts leads to the most interesting results.
The online magazine was launched on October 29th in 2012 and the first print publication was published in january 2015. Ever since the project started our dedication to the magazine and the content has grown each day. Our main-philosophies are the common rules of minimalism: "Less is more" and "Quality over quantity". At the current state we have contributors in Berlin, London, Copenhagen, Florence, Milan, Las Vegas and Paris.
For any questions and inquiries in general, don't hesitate to contact us.

Syracuse University beat top-seeded Indiana University 61-50 to advance to the East regional final in men's college basketball's national championship.
The fourth-seeded Orange will play No. 3 seed Marquette for a place in the Final Four at the National Collegiate Athletic Association tournament. The Golden Eagles beat the third-seeded Hurricanes 71-61 in the first game in the round of 16.
The meeting between the Hoosiers and the Orange last night was their first in the NCAA tournament since Indiana beat Syracuse in the 1987 title game. Indiana is the second of the four regional top seeds to be eliminated after Gonzaga lost its second game in the East region.
Syracuse took the lead for good at 4-3 after three minutes, 41 seconds at Verizon Center in Washington and led by 18 points with 3:22 to play in the first half.
In the last game of the day, No. 9 Wichita State defeated No. 13 La Salle 72-58 to reach the West regional final, where it will face No. 2 Ohio State. The Buckeyes earlier rallied from an 11-point first-half deficit to beat the Wildcats 73-70.
Arizona tied it at 70-70 with 21 seconds to play at Staples Center in Los Angeles before LaQuinton Ross's 3-point jumper with two seconds remaining sealed the win for the Buckeyes. Deshaun Thomas led Ohio State with 20 points and Ross added 17.
Syracuse won its only NCAA title 10 years ago and is in the regional finals for the second straight year.
Marquette advanced to the round of eight for the seventh time. The Golden Eagles won the title in 1977, were runner-up three years earlier, and have reached the Final Four three times, most recently in 2003.
Wichita State last reached the round of eight in 1981 and won its only national title in 1965. The Explorers reached the round of 16 for the first time this year since 1955, when they finished runner-up, a year after claiming their only national title.

The use of BTZS tubes wiht PMK may well affect the outcome by giving you uneven staining. This unwanted consequence has been well-documented in the literature and is something to be concerned about. It should be of some interest that Phil Davis, who invented the BTZS tubes, does not recommend them for PMK. There are no doubt some people who have gotten good results with PMK in BTZS tubes but it is also a fact that many others have encountered problems.
I used PMK as my primary developer for many years with tray processing, but when I switched to rotary processing in BTZS tubes and drums I started to have a lot of problems with uneven staining on the back oif the film, and later I realized that my case was not unique because there were a lot of other people experiencing the same kinds of problems. It was because of these problems that I developed Pyrocat-HD, which I believe solves all of the problems of unven staining of PMK (and Rollo Pyro).

What if the Three Stooges were reborn as fanatical Muslim terrorists?
The result would probably look a whole lot like "Four Lions," the hilarious, biting British comedy that's far more about human folly than religion. The first feature, written and directed by satirist Chris Morris, may seem profane to some, but if you're doomed by watching it, at least you'll go down laughing.
In this case, it's more like four or five stooges, these being self-proclaimed jihadists in Sheffield, England, set on destroying, well, something.
Two of the group — Omar (Riz Ahmed) and Waj (Kayvan Novak) — go off for disastrous training at a camp in Pakistan while the others stay home and try to concoct new ways of causing mayhem, most notably by strapping bombs on crows.
In the end, the group opts for suicide bombs and heads for the center of London. Their aim is less than true. In fact, the whole thing ends up a deliciously scattershot, crisscrossing mess.
Morris isn't making fun of Islam, really, he's making fun of fanatics of all stripes. From their witless pomposity to paper-thin politics and sad-sack motives, these guys are everybody's fools.
Terrorism may not seem the most obvious subject for slapstick humor, but religious self-righteousness has long been a target of British comics (See: Monty Python and Christianity).
"Four Lions" is about a group of idiots trying to do something stupid — and that's about as basic as humor gets. The result is funny stuff tinged with just enough topicality to sting a bit.

TMI ALERT: The other morning, after DTD, I got off the bed to see there was a ton of liquid on the bedding... I've never seen that much, or hardly any at all the way we handle things. My DH said I was really wet down there this time, and that it was all me, none him. A little bit later when I went to change the sheets, I decided to smell it to see if it was maybe amniotic fluid or something, and it was not sweet at all... it was rather acidic. I'm really ambarrassed that it was actually pee, especially since DH gives me a handjob in order for me to get an orgasm at all. If I tell him my suspicians, we'll never have sex again because of how grossed out he'd get (he doesn't like to hear that I pee a little when I sneeze, either). I didn't feel any pee come out whil DTD, but who knows at this point? Either way, I quickly changed the sheets!
So embarrassing I can't tell my husband!

Your DH is grossed out by pee? How does he handle diaper changes, lol? Just don't mention it to him, I guess. Sorry, that doesn't sound fun!
I'm not a doctor; I just play one on the internet.

and Skittles Cat (Apr '13)
You could have had a squirting O. If you're DH has never given you one before, that could have been it. It's easily done by hand more so than the penis. Did it feel REALLY good when he was doing it? Like to the point where you would open your mouth but no sound would come out and then you just laid there grinning like a fool?
It's ok. You are pregnant and things like this happen! I am sure he wouldn't be that digusted. My husband honestly would think he was so good he made me pee. HA you can always use that.
no, I actually didn't get a full O this time around... And this is pretty standard practice for us. I haven't been able to get a ood vaginal O since before my last pregnancy. But this way usually works unless my body just isn't prepared enough, like this last time.
And DH is fine with pee, as long as it's in the diaper or toilet. Hearing his grown wife has tiny accidents on occassion is grossing him out for some weird reason. I don't get it, I thought he'd laugh when I first told him. That's how I know I cannot even breathe a word of this to him if I want any more sex over the next 6 weeks! lol

Great that people are giving their personal experiences as to why this won't bother them, but I still contend that you guys are the "power users" on Netflix, and not representative of the bulk of their customers. Not to say that regular users aren't watching old movies, but I'd wager that for a large majority of the users, the bulk of their queues are filled with new releases, and movies that have come out in the last 3 months or so.
And see, I'd wager the opposite. My experiences and the conversations I've had with others who use netflix, it's about catching up with things you haven't seen, like TV, and not the new releases.
Same here. I know a ton of people who use Netflix, and they rarely use it to watch new releases. It's all about watching stuff they never saw the first time around or have missed due to scheduling conflicts (most Netflix users I know watch more TV shows than movies).
If people really want to see a new release these days, I think they're more likely to buy it (or to have already seen it in theaters).

Bates College chemistry major wins top award at international conference
Marilla Pender-Cudlip '10, a recent Bates College graduate and a chemistry major from Torrington, Conn., was honored with a top prize and 100 euros in prize money for her research poster at the 10th European Biological Inorganic Chemistry Conference, held June 22-26 in Thessaloniki, Greece.
The EUROBIC conference represents the best work in the field of bioinorganic chemistry, the study of metal ions in biological systems. Out of 297 posters at the conference, Pender-Cudlip's and two others shared the top prize.
She stood out amidst an accomplished group. Most of the presenters were graduate students presenting doctoral work or postdoctoral associates and professors presenting material pending publication in peer-reviewed journals.
Pender-Cudlip, who graduated in May, attended the conference with chemistry professor Rachel Narehood Austin. "You could think about the award as an analogy to a young musician winning a music competition," says Austin. "It signals that this is a person with the talent and training to rise to the top in a very competitive field."
Pender-Cudlip's poster exhibited research from her senior thesis, which involves AlkB, one of a class of chemicals called metalloenzymes, or enzymes that contain a bound metal ion in their structures. The research explores the reaction mechanism of AlkB as it oxidizes hydrocarbons called alkanes.
The enzyme is thought to be a prime catalyst employed by naturally occurring bacteria that feed on hydrocarbons — potentially linking the research to events like the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. "The importance of this research lies in understanding as much about AlkB as possible," says Pender-Cudlip.
The research is part of an extensive project that she has been working on with Austin for the past three summers at Bates. "It's been nice working on the same project for so long," says Pender-Cudlip, because it provided a consistent backdrop to her learning during the academic year.
"My understanding of chemistry broadened by taking more classes, while my lab experience grew because I spent every summer at Bates," she says.
Pender-Cudlip is no stranger to academic honors. During her time at Bates, her awards included the prestigious Barry M. Goldwater and Beckman scholarships, which support selected students in the sciences.
While Pender-Cudlip was a bit surprised by the EUROBIC honor, she felt confident presenting her research. "I gained practice from the Mount David Summit" — a showcase of academic achievement at Bates — "and the chemistry seminars that all majors present to the department."
