If you are thinking about selling an engagement ring or some other sort of diamond selling, you want to make sure that you are dealing with the right kind of diamond buyers. Diamond jewellery can be a difficult item to find an accurate price of, diamonds are not as fungible as other commodities like gold and silver. To get an accurate price for your diamond selling, you need to shop around with different diamond buyers and get an appraisal from each of them, and then seeing which price range is most common. One of the first steps before taking your jewellery to any diamond buyers is to take the stone out from the set. This way you can measure the weight of the diamond exactly and the diamond buyers will have an easier time of accessing the condition and then price of your diamond jewellery. You could be like many people who find themselves with a collection of old jewellery that is never worn and just sits there gathering dust. If this is the case, you can benefit from diamond selling because there are most certainly diamond buyers out there. Take that old jewellery in to one of many diamond buyers and you could be getting some extra cash instead of letting that jewellery sit idle. You can even use that money to upgrade and buy new jewellery for yourself.
Diamond jewellery has a long history of value and worth for people, which makes it a great investment for anyone. There will always be a market out there for diamond selling or selling and engagement ring or any other type of jewellery. Diamond sellers can be found in any city or even online, all you have to do is search for them. You can go to official jewellery stores or pawn brokers, there are many different choices of where to do you business when it comes to diamond selling.
You could find yourself in possession of inherited jewellery left to you, so instead of storing it somewhere and never actually wearing it, you can fin the right diamond buyers to give you a good price on your jewellery. Diamonds and diamond jewellery are good at holding their value through tough economic times and periods of inflation. They are an easy way of storing wealth in a small place and then passing that wealth on to loved ones after you pass away. The demand for diamond selling will always be there no matter what the economy is looking like, this is why most of the wealthiest people in the world like to store some of their net worth in the form of diamonds. So when it comes time for you to sell your jewellery, you will find that there are plenty of diamond buyers around to help you with selling an engagement ring or any other type of diamond jewellery you may have. As long as you take your jewellery to several different places in order to determine the proper price, you should be comfortable in knowing that you are exchanging your diamond piece for what it is really worth in the market.

How well do you understand the Versace style? Did you truly understand how he paired cheetah prints with paisley patterns and made it work? Sure, you understood that he was an icon and the envy of celebrities everywhere, but were you daring enough to wear Versace? And if you dared, did you do it right? Gianni Versace had a sense of style that set his creations apart from the rest and while you might be able to pick a Versace out in the crowd, it's likely you needed a fashion stylist to show you how to properly wear the genius wardrobe.
There's good news: you don't have to wear Versace to stay in what was once his multi-million dollar Miami mansion but I assure you, once you walk through the guarded doors of this palace you'll 'get' Versace. And you'll never be the same.
Gianni Versace's Miami mansion is the second-most photographed home in the U.S. Try as Michelle Obama might, the White House has nothing on Versace's style.
Keep reading below.
The entrance to the Versace Mansion--now the Villa by Barton G.--is located at 1116 Ocean Drive. Guests can only be admitted by security guard on duty.
This statue is the first thing you see when you walk through the iron gates at the front of the house. This particular statue is from the Versace days.
Walk under the archways and you'll enter the open courtyard. Guests mingle here in the evenings for cocktail hour and retreat to their rooms from the courtyard's various staircases.
The gold-threaded fountain is the centerpiece of the courtyard, the first of many gold-toned items guests see throughout the villa.
The villa's pool is from the Versace days. The pool has 1,000 mosaic tiles and is lined in 24k gold.
The lounge area is located on the grass around the pool, and offers fully cushioned lounge chairs in the same Versace prints as the outdoor place settings and wrought-iron banisters.
The formal dining room in the Villa features tables or 2 or 4 and hosts nightly dinners, aperitif and after-dinner drinks. The menu changes daily based on chef's preference.
The place settings are quintessential Versace.
The hallways on the second and third floors show guests to their suites. The floors are slightly angled inward toward the courtyard so that when it rains, puddles don't form on the floors.
The Signature Suite is said to be where Gianni Versace's brother, Santos, would stay when he visited the mansion. It's the top tier room in the villa and features the only double-king sized bed, made exclusively for Versace.
The view from the Signature Suite's living room area is a picturesque view of Ocean Drive and the Atlantic Ocean.
Each of the villas come completely wired with the latest technology. Here, the Signature Suite's butler shows off a universal remote that works everything from the audio system to the electronic shades and the lights in the suite.
Barton G. kept the suites in the villa as close to Versace as possible. The Signature Suite bedroom features the same double-king bed, silk duvet, curtains and drapes that Versace himself picked out.
The Azure Bedroom is a step down from the Signature Suite, but still as breathtaking. The suite is said to be the 'kids room' back in the Versace days. Decorated in periwinkle blues, lavenders and golds, the room exudes charm and elegance. Even the bathrooms fixtures are hand-dipped in 24k gold.
The guest bathrooms in all the suites contain mosaics and tiles from the Versace days, but have been renovated with a Barton G. touch. This bathroom in the Azure suite features a sitting area among the tiles that grace the walls. Next to it (not pictured) is the standing shower, complete with matching tiles and hand-dipped gold fixtures.
This fresco, located in the Signature Suite, is an original from the Versace days.
The view of the pool's architecture from the "Madonna Suite"
The view of Ocean Drive and South Miami from the roof of the villa.
The cigar room features a full humidor and private bar area.
Frescos hang throughout the villa, many from the Versace days. The interior frescoes were created by Versace's artisans. They were restored by Barton. The exteriors feature art that dates back to 1930 (Alden Freeman) and the Versace era.
The view of the open courtyard from the roof.
On July 15, 1997, the fashion world came to a screeching halt when Versace was shot dead outside his Miami home, but his legend lives on inside the white-washed walls on Ocean Drive. The Italian fashion mogul called 1116 Ocean Drive home for more than five years and hosted everyone from Elton John to Madonna at his lavish digs. While his legacy lives on among the accessories, fragrances, makeup and clothes, the home that Versace built remained closed to the majority of the public until now. When Barton G. Weiss took over the posh digs he turned the Versace-owned home into a hotel for those who defined the very meaning of glamour.
You don't need to own anything Versace to be able to recognize his look. The complex mix of fabrics and patterns were synonymous with Versace style. No one else could pair animal prints with bright pink cashmere and turquoise blue porcelain with gold-flecked and multi-jeweled crystal. You know a Versace when you spot it, and the same holds true for his 19,000-square-foot South Beach home - within seconds of walking through the iron gates, you know you're standing inside the brainchild of one of fashion's greatest minds.
I walked into the mansion at precisely 10 a.m. on a Sunday morning. The butler opened the steel gates and ushered me into the courtyard where the fountain in the middle streamed gold water (via gold thread in its spouts). I stood in awe as the realization of my whereabouts came into focus. The Versace handbag tucked safely in its dust bag in my closet suddenly had a whole new meaning.
The butler took my half-gulped latte and placed it perfectly in the center of a silver tray while she pointed the way toward the outdoor pool area. A quick left at the water fountain and we were standing face-to-gold in front of the Thousand Mosaic pool. Lined in 24k gold and serving as a focal point along the perfectly manicured lawn, the pool was nothing short of mesmerizing. I couldn't imagine swimming in it, and yet at the same time I wondered what it was like to float along the gold that trimmed the perimeter of the pool. The lounge chairs were all cushioned with Versace prints and while Ocean Drive was only steps away, you felt like you were in another world.
Guests can dine al fresco by the pool during the day and in the evening, the cuisine turns five-star in the 30-seat dining room. From the tiled walls to the Versace-original flatware and plates, you can almost see the visionary sitting in the corner enjoying a meal on the one-of-a-kind dishes and sipping wine from the jeweled cups that grace each table. Dinner menus are designed daily and the carefully cultivated wine list offers more than 100 labels selected from the world's finest vintners. After dinner drinks can be served in the Dining Room or outside in the courtyard under the stars.
I made my way up the first flight of stairs (my coffee approximately three steps behind me the entire way) and walked into the first suite - the Signature Suite, said to be where Versace's brother, Santo, stayed when he visited. The living room is true Versace - a plethora of colors, textures, patterns and technology merged to produce a stunning entrance. Zebra print sofas sit next to cheetah print lounge chairs, both accented with bright throw pillows in red, pink and orange.
The bedroom is what dreams are made of. Barton G. kept the same fabrics, color schemes and ambiance that was left over from the Versace days. A double-king bed serves as the focal point of the bedroom, flanked by original Versace drapes and linens. The custom created comforter is red silk with embroidered cheetahs, but the way it was cut explains the very definition of "design." Linens are cut on dimensions - a twin, full, queen, king - and are sized appropriately. However, a double-king bed is unusual and to sew the fabric together to simply make a double-king meant a seam would run through the middle of the bed. Ask any royal and they'll tell you: one should never sleep on a seam. The result: A custom-created silk comforter, seams appropriately placed on the edges, fit for a King (or two) and now slept in by guests at the villa.
The other guest rooms are quintessential Versace with the Barton G. touch. Golds, blues, reds and greens serve as the backdrop to patterns and prints you'd likely see in Roman churches and temples. Each room has a butler devoted to the guests, each butler expertly trained. Frescos line the hallways providing a history and art lesson to those who pass through. The interior frescoes were created by Versace's artisans and were restored by Barton G. The exteriors feature art that dates back to 1930 and the Versace era, and throughout the mansion you'll spot mythological figures that were brought in exclusively for the mansion when Versace lived here.
While I wasn't given the official confirmation, there are specific rooms in the villa that were designed with specific guests in mind. I opened the door to one room and found shades of red and gold plastered throughout the walls and on the furniture. A cherry wood desk sat at the far corner of the room and placed perfectly on the window seat was the most recent issue of Vogue. The room was said to be Madonna's personal suite when she stayed with Versace, and is currently the only room in North America with a gold-plated sunken bathtub (a perfect fit for the Material Girl, herself).
As if the mansion couldn't get extravagant, the scene was from the top of the villa. On the rooftop were lounge chairs, cabanas and sofas in shades of blue and corals offering exclusive views of South Beach, but kept completely private from passersby on the street. It was on the roof that Versace undoubtedly spent a few nights watching the sun set and entertaining guests, and today is serves as the ultimate retreat for guests wanting a little privacy under the South Miami sun.
Few people inspired fashion the way Gianni Versace did. Few people did it in a way that is as recognizable as Gianni Versace. Few people lived the way Gianni Versace lived, and today, few people get the opportunity to step inside the villa that was once owned by the iconic fashion designer. The Versace Miami Beach house today stands as a tribute to the man who helped define luxury to its core.
Villa by Barton G
Guest rooms range from $1,900 off season to $2,500 in-season (Nov. 1-April 24, 2011) for the smaller suites; The Signature Suite starts at $4,900 off season and prices at $5,750 in-season. For more photos, see slideshow below.

Re: Wlad Plans To Return April 6
I don't see the chances of upset so dramatically different for anyone that I would specifically be disappointed about him fighting any Ring-ranked top ten men or some nice undefeated prospect. I wouldn't think it'd be worth getting riled up over, considering the landscape. Everyone not named Povetkin hasn't established themselves as the outstanding contender anyway. He can almost pick any ranked guy he wants without much historical rebuke because of it.
I want Povetkin more than anyone in there, but Pulev, Fury, even Boytsov and Helenius are all guys I wouldn't mind seeing in there with at all. I'd be more agitated by Klitschko sitting on the title than picking someone I'd rather not see in there. Like last year, I couldn't find an ounce of interest in a Mormeck fight, but I'd rather he stayed active with a fight like that so later on if someone has pushed ahead of the pack and looks good and wants it there's no "Well, I've been out too long. I need a tune-up for that guy." When they're taking stay-busy fights while contenders sort themselves out, at least you never have to worry about that ****.

That would be ****ing re****ed.
Last fall, Wlad was all about fighting Mitchell in 2013. I know he was devastated when Banks KHTFO. Wlad himself said something to the effect that his KO losses made him a better fighter, and that Mitchell would be back.
That'd be f/d up if Wlad is waiting for that fight before announcing his next opponent.
Well, Volo is supposedly desperate for the American contenders.

Once a cheap vegetarian staple in soups and stews, this tiny legume has achieved gourmet status, writes Katie Cincotta.
Hungary Eyes
THICK, hearty stews are fantastic comfort food. They're simple to whip up and are often pretty easy on the budget.
Mash It
IN a few short weeks summer salads and stone fruit will be but distant memories as thick soups, stews and warm sticky puddings bump them from restaurant menus.

About 1,200 runners participated in the Sunshine Run today.
The event, which began as a 10-kilometer race for Mercy employees 33 years ago, has grown into a major community event with one-mile, 5-kilometer and 10-kilometer races. About 200 volunteers help put it on.
Jami Cook of West Plains was running the 5K with her son, Eli, 11.
"We've done it for three years," Cook said. "It's so much fun."
The first runner to cross the finish line at Hammons Field was John Flor of Springfield who ran the 5K in about 16:06. He planned to run the 10K afterwards.
Brian Wilson of Battlefield was at the race with wife, Jessica, a nurse at Mercy Hospital Springfield, and their three children. Today was her first race. He snapped her picture and kissed her before the start.
"She's kind of nervous, but I think this is going to be a lifelong thing for her," Wilson said.

This study will be a prospective, non-randomized evaluation of the Tritanium® Acetabular Shell for primary total hip replacement (THR) with a cementless application in a consecutive series of patients who meet the eligibility criteria. Half of the cases will use the X3® polyethylene insert alone as the bearing surface; the other half will use the MDMTM liner coupled with a compatible ADM/MDMTM X3® insert as the bearing surface.
The success rate, defined as freedom from acetabular revision for any reason, for hips implanted with the Tritanium® Acetabular Shell, is no worse than for hips implanted with similar technology as reported in the literature and Trident® X3® Study historical control at 5 years postoperative.

State records 4.6 per cent school dropout rate

Even as the persentage of out of school children in West Bengal has decreased in the last year, Bengal still remains one of the states with highest number of out of school children.
As per the Annual Status of Education Report (ASER), 2010, released by Vice-President Hamid Ansari in New Delhi yesterday, 4.6 per cent children - in the age group of 6-14 years - are out of school in Bengal.
The report, which was published by the ASER Centre and facilitated by the non-government organisation, Pratham, states that the national dropout rate recorded in the survey is 3.5 per cent for children in the age group of 6-14 years.
Last year when the same report pointed that the national drop out was four percent, Bengal had recorded a drop out rate of 5.6 per cent.
Bengal remains the fifth state in the country followed by Meghalaya (7.2) per cent, Rajashtan ( 5.8) per cent, Uttar Pradesh 5.2 per cent, and Assam 5 per cent in terms of out of school children.
Bihar, which had higher out of school children than Bengal just a couple of years ago, now has come closer to the national average with only 3.5 per cent children out of school. The report points that Punjab have made remarkable improvement from last year's 5.4 per cent drop out rate to 1.7 this year.
In West Bengal their is also disparity in terms of out of school children in various districts across the state. Districts like Uttar Dinajpur had the highest number of out of school children in the state at 11.4 per cent, while Purulia had 6.8 per cent children outside school, in Malda the per cent was 6.9 and Murshidabad recorded 6.3 per cent drop out rate.
In Bengal the survey was conducted across 600 villages across 17 districts and 20 houses in each district was chosen. However, despite the number of drop outs being considerably high, Bengal is one of the states where maximum children go to government schools. As per the report, only 5.9 per cent children go to private schools in the state.

Knoxville (WVLT) - A big hike in the federal tax on cigarettes could cause one million smokers to quit.
That is the word from public health experts, who say raising the price of cigarettes has a consistent effect on reducing smoking rates.
Beginning April first, the federal tax on cigarettes will increase from 39 cents to about $1.01 to pay for the expansion of a public health insurance program for lower income children.

Best ferry service is from Harwich to Hook of Holland with Stena Line. They offer two crossings daily so you can choose between day and overnight sailings. Overnight option might be worth a look as you can save yourself a night in a hotel this way. You can get to the port at Harwich by rail from London Liverpool Street (takes just over an hour). Very easy to get to both Amsterdam and the Hague by rail once you arrive in Holland.
Hi Dushinkos! Britain's train system is extensive enough to mitigate the need for a car in most cases. Quite apart from driving on the left (it's not that bad!), petrol is also very expensive. The East Coast train service from London's King Cross to Edinburgh is pretty fast (4-5 hours) and fairly affordable, especially if you can book in advance. If you plan on doing any other trips around the UK, you might look into a family railcard as a way to save some money. Another option is to break your journey back from Edinburgh with an overnight stop in somewhere like York or Durham, both lovely, historic towns that are on the London-Edinburgh line. I would worry, though, that you'd be packing too much in with only four days to spare, including travel to and from Edinburgh. Another option might be to do a day or overnight trip from London to towns like Oxford, Cambridge, or Bath, all within easy range of the capital and with lots of things to see and do for families. You don't say what your teenagers enjoy, or when you're traveling to the UK. These are also factors. I think Edinburgh's a great choice (I went to high school here!). Remember that late July/August is festival season in Edinburgh, which means loads of stuff to see and do but also crowds and fully-booked hotels. Plan in advance if you're traveling in those summer months!

Ag exemption for property tax

One of my principal concerns moving forward with the farm is property taxes.
Dad bought the
in 1985, and his property taxes the first year were something like two or three hundred bucks. This year they're closer to four grand with an added chunk of about three grand in a separate bill from the school district to fund large new schools, which are primarily driven by the locals' desire to compete in 5A athletics with the larger urban areas in Texas. They might say that's not it, but everyone knows that's what's up. It's really ridiculous in Parker County, Texas. The Chamber of Commerce has heavily advertized the area as a great place to move in order to enjoy a rural lifestyle close to the DFW metroplex - the largest landlocked metro area in the US now. As a result of this, there is really less and less of a rural lifestyle left anymore, and Weatherford (the county seat and only sizable city in the county) and the surrounding area have become more or less a bedroom community to the western edge of the metroplex. We are outside the city limits at the far western edge of the county, but we still get hit with county taxes. And ours are apparently a tad higher because there is a county road on both ends of our place. It dead-ends against the little panhandle of land that goes down to the river's edge in back. I don't know if that last part is accurate, but dad said it the other day in a particularly lucid moment.
Anyway, I'm researching ag exemptions, because apparently that would reduce our tax burden down to just a few hundred dollars per year, which is a pretty dramatic savings and worth a little trouble. The problem with that is that it is governed by how the place is used. And I'm wondering if a
food forest would even be considered, given the mindset of our neighbors. People in our neck of the woods, as far as I can tell, are pretty conventional in their methods and practices. I would rather not devote any of the property to conventional, even
, production ag. I'm convinced there should be a way to legitimately apply and receive an exemption, but I'm just beginning to explore this stuff and don't really know my way around it.
Here's one site I found this evening that explains some of the requirements:
I guess what I'm asking is does anyone here in the forums, specifically in Texas, I guess, have any experience with this? Any ideas?

Orchardist is the nomenclature you have to use to qualify for ag acknowledgement without mondo mono cultural fields.
You gotta be very careful about sounding like a regular person, wowing them with permaculture may make you appear sketch in your district.
Basically they need to equate money to what your doing so your food forest is a simple mix of orchard growing of fruit tree's mixed with long term timber.
Those two categories don't have any high scrutiny like talking about meat or consumables, even bee's drag you into pasteurization standards.
You escape having to produce instant visuals or financials because of the long term investment everybody understand comes with
, in the mean time you sell free range eggs if that's legal as pest control and weed management.
It's just about finding something your already doing that qualifies you as engaging in standard farming of one kind or another, a hatchery is still farming. After that just close off everything else your truly doing as experimental, nobody can say your a flake these days for making compost for your business.

I planned on selling a few pounds of pecans at the produce market before the end of the year, even though they're only giving fifty cents per pound, just for the bill of sale. Plus, we have recods of the fruit tree purchases going back several years and the fire in 2010 to account for no sales of fruit prior to this.
Thank you for the clarity!

We got Agricultural appraisal for our land and subsequently Wildlife Management appraisal. It takes a long time. One needs to practice agriculture of some kind for five out of seven years, then apply. Once you get ag status for one year you can apply for Wildlife Management status, which has the same tax status as ag. It may be more difficult to obtain Ag status by growing plants than by raising animals. But if you feel you have been practicing ag for five of seven years, I encourage you to apply and see what happens. You can always try again and if you don't get it this time, they'll tell you what to do to qualify next time.

I'm thinking it might be worth retaining a
attorney to streamline this if they only charge a few hundred bucks. I'll read over the requirements first and call a few to see how much they'd charge for that.

A Delaware Circuit Court 5 jury found Tabb guilty of murder, and neglect of a dependent resulting in death, in last June's torture slaying of her 5-year-old cousin, Marie Pierre.
The jury also found the 30-year-old Muncie woman guilty of five counts of battery with a deadly weapon over her mistreatment of her younger siblings, then ages 11, 14 and 16. ...

Those working in the food industry face an abundance of information generated by diverse institutions and individuals.
Ensuring the safety of food is critically important to the public's health and a challenge for policy-makers seeking to enhance the government's role in this arena. Although the food industry has an inherent duty to make food safe, the effectiveness of what they do is highly dependent on the quality of the information they receive on potential hazards and good practices.
In this context, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation funded a project under the auspices of the Food Safety Research Consortium to examine and make recommendations for improving the food safety information infrastructure (FSII). Through this initiative, a collection of food safety experts met for a series of workshops to discuss information needs around food safety.
Key Findings:
In this report, whose recommendations are based on those workshop discussions, the authors explore the constraints facing today's FSII. These include the diversity of the information currently available, the plethora of information sources, and the numerous agencies and actors involved in generating data.

No. 13 Florida State 21, Georgia Tech 15
CHARLOTTE, N.C. Florida State has regained its perch atop the Atlantic Coast Conference.
Now Jimbo Fisher plans to stay there.
The third-year coach talked all season about re-establishing a "winning culture" at Florida State and his team took a big step toward that Saturday night.
The 13th-ranked Seminoles opened with a flurry on offense and rode a strong defensive performance the rest of the way to hold off unranked Georgia Tech 21-15 and capture their first Atlantic Coast Conference championship since 2005 and earn a trip to the Orange Bowl.
It was Florida State's 13th ACC title.
"I think you got to understand, you have to win one before you can ever say, 'I'm back,' " Fisher said. "And everybody wants you to win the national championship. You got to win a conference championship before you win the national championship and keep getting in that hunt.
"Now our kids understand what it takes, how hard it is. But you know they're champions and I'm going to tell you it means something. You think different. You act different. You become different. Hopefully, it will translate into the offseason with our young guys and we can keep that culture around here like it used to be."
Although he had a rough outing Saturday night, quarterback EJ Manuel finishes up ACC play with a legacy of having brought a title back to what was once considered a prestigious program but one that had certainly fallen off in recent years.
"You know, I only see greatness from here on out," Manuel said. "They got a lot of great players, a lot of great young players. Guys understand what it takes to get to this point, you know, so I don't see us going back to where we used to be. You know, I think Florida State is back in the conversation."
James Wilder Jr. ran for two touchdowns as the heavily favored Seminoles (11-2) built a 21-6 lead at the half and held on to win, easing some of the sting from last week's 37-26 loss to their bitter rival, No. 4 Florida.
The win didn't come easily.
Georgia Tech came in as a two-touchdown underdog and it looked like the Yellow Jackets might get blown out, but the game wasn't decided until defensive back Karlos Williams intercepted Georgia Tech quarterback Tevin Washington with less than a minute remaining.
"Luckily it got tipped up in the air and I just tried to catch the ball," Williams said of his first career interception.
Despite its record, Georgia Tech (6-7) is bowl eligible after receiving a waiver from the NCAA on Thursday.

Im thinking in this way because i had used servlets to retrieve data from databases and output them in html n present in the browser and now i wish to do the same but output to be a xml document created...

Note that many databases nowadays have the ability to return results in XML format. Look into this feature on your database and you might save yourself a lot of boring looking code :).

"Pin me, pay me!"
"1-2-3 4-Life!"Professional Wrestling, the overwhelming majority of them have been pre-determined since at least 1920. Fans and insiders alike refer to being on the losing end of the equation as "doing the job," or "jobbing" in short. This terminology came about because losing the match tends to make the wrestler's character look worse, and could be a sign that the promotion is transitioning him into a less prominent role. This is especially true if he's booked to lose in a championship match or get squashed. But they finish the match and let the other guy pin them as scripted, because that's part of the job. There have been times when a wrestler would refuse to "do the job" and would fight for real and defeat the guy who they were scheduled to lose to; this is called "going into business for yourself." This occured primarily in the early days of pro wrestling, which was done on a regional basis aside from the champion who'd travel across regions. It rarely happens because the inevitable result would be getting fired. Sometimes a local challenger would "steal" the title by refusing to job to the champion, which for many years meant that the champion would always be somebody who can legitimately fight back against an uncooperative foe. As strange as it may seem sometimes, there is an entire class of pro wrestlers whose primary purpose in being on TV is to "do the job" on a regular basis. These wrestlers, otherwise known as "enhancement talent," primarily serve to make the other wrestlers look that much better, by selling everything the other wrestler does as if they're dying. So, why be a jobber? There are several reasons...
- Some are trainers and/or road agents (the people who lay out matches), who take the jobber role in order to work with rookie talents and help them hone their skills. Val Venis worked in this capacity for several years in the WWE. Finlay's return to the ring started out in this capacity, as the initial plans were for him to get a few wins to build credibility, then work as a jobber to put younger talent over, but he gained a following and thus broke the mold.
- Sometimes, the road agents will bring their old wrestling personas out when the need presents. Have a foreign heel who resembles the ones from the old days? Here comes WWE Hall of Famer (and road agent) Sgt. Slaughter to give him his comeuppance.
- Rookies can get experience and learn both in and out of Kayfabe even while jobbing. In Japan a tradition has been for newer wrestlers to be jobbing more often due to inexperience; Japanese pro wrestling legend Kenta Kobashi lost his first 63 matches (in an intentional attempt by Giant Baba to build Kenta Kobashi as "never say die") before his first win, and Naomichi Marufuji was mostly a jobber in All Japan Pro Wrestling before jumping to Pro Wrestling NOAH. In general, if there's a tag match, expect the guy with the least experience to be pinned or submit.
- Some are just thrilled to be part of the wrestling business, and will do anything to be part of the show. (Mikey Whipwreck's long run as an ECW jobber might have been partly this, but he eventually inverted the trope.)
- Some are young, up-and-coming talent from independent wrestling promotions, who are trying to get the attention of talent scouts. In fact, ROH's "Do or Die" matches are more or less this, with the fans (and the booker based on the fans' reactions) as the judges.
- Some are jobbing as punishment (see Triple H's extended run of jobbing after the Madison Square Garden Incident).
- Wrestlers who are seen as potential stars, such as WWE's Montel Vontavious Porter, have been put through an extended period as a jobber to ensure their loyalty to the company. This happened after WWE lost both Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley to Mixed Martial Arts after sizable pushes in the main event.
- Some are wrestlers that are about to leave a promotion. Since they no longer need the rub, it is seen as customary to give another wrestler a push on the way out.
- Some wrestlers who have had a long and respected career will be happy for the opportunity to "make" a potential star by giving them the rub. Doing so marks them as a loyal company man who puts the good of the business before their own ego.
- Some are wrestlers who are very good at making their opponents look great, but lack the charisma or presence to make it as a main eventer.
- For some... ehh, it's a living.
- Scott Hall's pre-Razor Ramon days.
- Virgil's tour as Ted DiBiase's whipping boy.
- Diamond Dallas Page's first run as a manager.
- Kane's run as the fake Diesel and Isaac Yankem.
- The Hardyz before they got their big break.
- The Rock's early push as Rocky Maivia.
- Steve "Mongo" McMichael, a former football player and announcer who was somehow accepted into the Four Horsemen.
- All celebrity gimmick wrestlers, like Jay Leno or Dennis Rodman.
- Nearly all second generation wrestlers, including Brian "Grandmaster Sexay" Lawler (son of Jerry "The King" Lawler) and Scott Putski (son of "Polish Power" Ivan Putski).
- Kurt Angle's two gold medals in heavyweight wrestling at the Olympics in Atlanta and the World Games.
- Dan "The Beast" Severn's run in the UFC and PRIDE.
- Brock Lesnar's collegiate wrestling championships.
- Bobby Lashley's collegiate and Army wrestling championships.
- Paul Wight (The Big Show) achieved mega-stardom in his rookie year by not only winning the WCW championship, but by being the only wrestler in history to win Pro Wrestling Illustrated's (the Bible of Professional Wrestling) Rookie of the Year and Wrestler of the Year awards in the same year. Since then, he has rarely held any belt, and is usually either in squashes or jobs. He has jobbed to Chris Benoit, Kevin Nash and much smaller wrestlers. Outside of his occasional main event runs, he's basically the WWE equivalent of a Giant Mook. He is, however, the only wrestler to date to have held the WCW, WWE, and ECW titles in the course of his career.
- André the Giant would often have 1 month contracts, and his first and only loss would occur at the next supercard.
- Ron Simmons (with Bradshaw as The Acolytes) never received a singles push in the WWE (although he did become the first black WCW World Champion), and would only see action backstage in promos, after the runaway success of Doom (with Butch Reed) and the failed push with the Farooq character. The most individual fame he gained in WWE was as the guy who would randomly appear and say "DAMN!" at everything.
- Polynesian wrestlers often suffer this fate, regardless of their actual ability. The main exceptions are Yokozuna, The Rock (who's Polynesian on his mother's side) and TNA's Samoa Joe, who are/were among their respective promotions' top stars. Roman Reigns seems to be going down this road as well, as he is in the middle of a huge push as a member of The Shield, though time will tell if it lasts. And Samoa Joe seems to be the only Samoan wrestler achieve superstardom with his Samoan ancestry as part of his gimmick.
- It's very common for WWE mid-carders such as Kofi Kingston, Cody Rhodes, Wade Barrett, The Miz, Zack Ryder, Antonio Cesaro, R-Truth, and Damien Sandow to be frequently used as jobbers against such big names as John Cena, CM Punk, Randy Orton, Sheamus, Alberto Del Rio, and Ryback, because it seems that the WWE Universe is only interested in seeing the big names and not the mid-card. Thus, the Intercontinental Championship and the United States Championship both have lost their prestige as of late, aside from when Cena holds one of the belts in between his main event runs. This is known as being a "jobber to the stars".
- Lou Thesz jobbed to Rikidozan, a favor for which Rikidozan was eternally grateful.
- One thing Sean Waltman (123 Kid, X-Pac) is known for is that he broke through with a (Kayfabe) upset of Razor Ramon. He'd been all over WWF TV as "The X Kid" with X changing on a seemingly weekly basis, at which point Bret Hart taunted Ramon and christened Waltman the "1-2-3" kid to mock "The Bad Guy."
- In a Passing the Torch moment,Hulk Hogan jobbed to the Ultimate Warrior at WrestleMania VI.
- Ivory jobbing to Trish Stratus in 2001. This is considered the moment Trish became a legitimate wrestler after spending her first year in the WWF as an eye-candy manager.
- Tag-team specialist Shelton Benjamin upsetting Triple H on a 2004 RAW established Benjamin as an upper-card superstar. This was arguably the high point of Shelton's career (aside from being on the receiving end of one of Shawn Michaels' most memorable superkicks).
- Chris Jericho lost to rookie blue-chipper John Cena in the summer of 2002 not once, but twice, including Cena's first ever match on PPV. While both were "fluke" wins (Cena won both by roll-up), it was enough to establish Cena as someone to keep an eye on on the Blue Brand. The rest is history.

A-Maize-ing Healthy & Fun Gluten-free Cereal
1 人が次のレビューが役に立ったと感じています
Reviewer1670267により Jan 05, 2014 に掲載
This product is truly a-Maize-ing as stated on the box! I would call them puffs, not flakes, as the corn kernels have been puffed. They are largely crispy, somewhat crunchy, tasty and full of natural wholegrain goodness and flavour. I was afraid that they would be too sweet - still a tad too sweet for me - but the sweetness sets off the flavour. Unusual product as this is not the normal corn flakes but consists of interesting individual shapes with the wholegrain parts visible. I have ordered 4 more boxes - that's how good I think this rare gluten-free food is! It's organic as well.

About the Book
The world for developers is becoming more and more agile. This increases the importance of having a great deploy process. Being able to adapt and react fast to changes is the way to stay agile. With a slow or complicated deploy process it becomes impossible to stay agile. You want to be able to respond fast to feedback and iterate with a fast and easy deploy (or rollback). That is the agile way.
A deploy is an important part of the software development process. Somehow it has been forgotten a bit in the PHP community. I hope to share my thoughts and experiences in this book to aid you in optimizing your deploy process. "Software rot" is something that happens to code if it's not maintained in a proper way. When it comes to deploy I call it "shipping rot". Let's try to stay away from that and treat our deploy process as any other important part of our applications.
You might be a developer. You might be the manager of or product owner to a team of developers. You will benefit from this whomever you might be. Whether you want to optimize the deploy process for technical or management reasons doesn't matter.
The style of the book will not be in the form of that you need to read the entire thing from start to finish. You could pick the areas where your process is suffering and focus on that. There will be both theory and technical implementation of the concepts.
This book is fully open source, you can find everything in the github repository: https://github.com/modess/deploying-php-applications

Yellowcard All Apologies Lyrics
Last updated: 02/21/2006 10:00:00 AM
Sponsored LinksWhat else should I be
All apologies
What else should I say
Everyone is gay
What else should I write
I don't have the right
What else should I be
All apologies
In the sun
In the sun I feel as one
In the sun
In the sun
I wish I was like you
Easily amused
Find my nest of salt
Everything is my fault
I'll take all the blame
Aqua seafoam shame
Sunburn with freezeburn
Choking on the ashes of her enemy
In the sun
In the sun I feel as one
In the sun
In the sun
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
All in all is all we are (All alone is all we all are?)
