According to Gallup among the 50 states, the president's highest approval rating is in Hawaii where it is just above 60 percent. Understandable, since he was born there, spends a lot of time and plays a lot of golf in the islands, and has enough history with Hawaii that he could call it home.
But the president is even more popular in Washington, D.C. where his numbers touch 80 percent. But, then, the people of Washington are his true constituents and he brings home the bacon.

About Buckey2745
I'm a 30 year old weather enthusiast from Central Ohio. Certified SKYWARN storm spotter.
By: Buckey2745 , 5:26 PM GMT on October 25, 2012
We're enjoying a nice bout of Indian Summer here in Ohio with temperatures gradually warming every day since Sunday the 21st. Yesterday we had our first 80° day since September 17th! This week's unusal warmth will be met with a rude awakening tomorrow when a strong cold front pushes through the area and drops temps back below normal for a while.
Of greater concern to our long term outlook is Hurricane Sandy in the Bahamas right now. This system has a very uncertain future for an East Coast landfall, ranging from the Carolina's to Nova Scotia.
Our weather will be impacted by Sandy, it's really just a matter of whether it's a cloud deck or heavy rains. There's no way to know right now, as models diverge greatly past Day 3.
Here's how uncertain Sandy's path will be:
The one model that has Sandy's center coming straight through Central Ohio is the outlier and the worst case scenario for us.
There are many factors that come in to play with this system that I'll go in to detail about in the coming days.

Allchin backs away from Vista anti-virus claims
Outgoing Windows development chief Jim Allchin has apologised for the confusion he created in comments taken to mean Vista was so secure it might be possible to run the software without any anti-virus installed.
Responding to questions from reporters about whether Vista would be more secure than Windows XP SP2, Allchin said his seven-year-old son runs a Vista PC (locked down with parental controls and no IM or email) without anti-virus protection.

I have been parking here for sometime now but I noticed that they added a bunch of fees on top of the actual rate of parking that when you total it up you might as well park on the airport lot. It is somewhat deceiving since you thought you are getting a deal but in the end it will be the same.
Our first time and I am well satisfied with the entire parking/shuttle experience
It was a surprise to learn that it was almost impossible to get back to the airport check in with my international trip luggage. There was no assistance ready to handle baggage. Very disappointing.
Need easier way to pay and not have two tickets to send through at gate; after a long trip one is not sure what tickets to have. The loews front desk provide the 2nd ticket and I remembered I had the 2nd in my wallet.
Chicago is not an easy city to drive in and the airport parking service provided by Lowe's made everything much easier. The customer service from everyone with whom we spoke was great. Price was reasonable. Thank you.
Shuttle took over 20mins, we had to call a cab for drop off and pick up. So great rate on parking, but the $40 in cab fares didn't really make it worth it.
I didn't see any parking lot attendants
fabulous experience; I'll be sure to use service again.
coming home we waited for the shuttle at the airport for more than 1 hour. Won't use their services again
This experience got our trip off to a great start! It also ended well!
I did not see a shuttle schedule, and I wish there were one. The facility was very clean and easy to manage. I will certainly use it again.
Just when I was ready to leave after four payed days the machine did not open the "gate" asking me to pay another 28 dll. I had to request help to leave the parking lot. I hope to don't have any payment pending. Regards
Shuttle back from airport took us about 20min! We did a detour by Rosemont train station...
Good service, reasonable price, and close to the airport. I have recommended this service to them.
The payment system at the end of the the trip needs to be addressed because they encourage you to pay at the machine as you exit, however, when attempting to pay at that machine you are not creditted with the initial payment of $7:50 that is charged at the time of your booking. Needless to say, this needs to be addressed so that you are given credit for your initial payment at the time of booking. Alternatively, you/they should return to the method of the customer paying at the hotel reception desk so that they are charged the correct amount. Fortunately for me there was a nice parking attendant who was able to facilitate me paying the correct amount that I owed, but this still needs to be addressed. Thanks. -Kirk
Had to wait 30 minutes for a shuttle. Shuttles for other area hotels were arriving every 10-15 minutes.
Great Service.
Best place to park for long duration
There was no shuttle service to pick me up after a delayed flight. The a LOWES representative, Sean, was very rude and could not care less about helping me. In fact he laughed when I told him that I would have trouble picking up my car.

9s complement and 10s complement | Subtraction
Before knowing about 9's complement and 10's complement we should know why they are used and why their concept came into existence. The complements are used to make the arithmetic operations in digital system easier. In this article we will discuss about the following topics (1) 9s complement (2) 10s complement (3) 9s complement subtraction (4) 10s complement subtraction Now first of all let us know what 9's complement is and how it is done. To obtain the 9,s complement of any number we have to subtract the number with (10n - 1) where n = number of digits in the number, or in a simpler manner we have to divide each digit of the given decimal number with 9. The table given below will explain the 9's complement more easily
|Decimal digit
|9s complement
Let us take a decimal number 456, 9's complement of this number will be 10's complement of this no 9's complement subtraction We will understand this method of subtraction via an example A = 215 B = 155 We want to find out A-B by 9's complement subtraction method
First we have to find out 9's complement of B Now we have to add 9's complement of B to A The left most bit of the result is called carry and is added back to the part of the result without it Another different type of example is given A = 4567 B = 1234 We need to find out A - B 9's complement of B 8765 Adding 9's complement of B with A Adding the carry with the result we get 3333 Now the answer is - 3333 NB if there is no carry the answer will be – (9's complement of the answer) Subtraction by 10's complement Again we will show the procedure by an example Taking the same data A = 215 B = 155 10's complement of B = 845 Adding 10's complement of B to A In this case the carry is omitted The answer is 60 Taking the other example A = 4567 B = 1234 10's complement of B = 8766 Adding 10's complement of B with A To get the answer the carry is ignored So, the answer is - 3333 NB. If there is a carry then the answer is – (10's complement of the sum obtained)

Respond to Review of CLOSED: Saf - Kensington
by fearless
Review: We had a soup, burger, two juices and two desserts. The juices were great. The food was OK but far from impressive. The service was quick which made for an easy meal but it was quite expensive for what you got relative to some other great veg restaurants around (e.g. Mildreds).

We need a FIRST name for middle name Edwin...
We are expecting our second little boy...our first is Camden William (William a name from his dad's side) and would like to use Edwin as a middle name for our second (from my side of the family)...
We are having trouble and don't like names ending in "n" as they sound funny with Edwin.
We like non-traditional names and are considering Ryker, Cody, and Kellan.
Oh, and our last name only has one syllable and starts with "L". My husband doesn't like one syllable first names with our last name...

Re: We need a FIRST name for middle name Edwin...
I like Edwin - I've been toying with this name for a while. I think something with three syllables would be good.

Dinner For Schmucks: Is without a doubt, the funniest film of the year.
I didn't know what to think about this film. The trailer looked outrageous and very weird, but I still like the cast. Steve Carrell is one of my favorite working actors today. Zach Galifianakis, who was in The Hangover, is really funny. But still the trailer looked really stupid. Though it looked like a light-hearted comedy, and that's very rare for these days. Did I like it?
Yes. I loved Dinner For Schmucks. Here's the premise of Dinner For Schmucks: Tim Conrad (Paul Rudd) is a part of a business. And one night every year (or month), their business rents a fancy food place, and invites a bunch of awkward people who do weird things, and they make fun of them. They say Tim has to invite a very awkward person to dinner, and he doesn't want to. But if he doesn't, he'll be fired. So when he's driving home he hits a man with his car on accident named Barry (Steve Carrell). He collects dead mice and makes sculptures out of them. He invites him to the dinner, but Barry doesn't know it's a dinner for idiots. Barry slowly starts to REALLY sabotage Tim's life. And slowly tim starts to get in trouble.
The acting in Dinner For Schmucks is great. Paul Rudd is good, but not great. His character just had some bad dialogue at times. Steve Carrell, was awesome. Barry is him. That is Carrell's PERFECT role. Good job, Carrell. Zach Galifianakis was hilarious. He was so funny! I think the best aspect in Dinner For Schmucks is the chemistry between Steve Carrell and Zach Galifianakis. It's just friggin hilarious. I love the whole fight about Carrell's ex-wife (Galifianakis's character is married to her). I just love those scenes. Also, Jeff Dunham makes an appearance in this film, and he's Lewis the Ventriloquist. He's pretty good too.
The dialogue in Dinner For Schmucks is very clever. I love how original some of the jokes and humor are. Like I've already said about 5 times, the humor in Dinner For Schmucks is outstanding. My sides hurt from laughing at the end of the film. Just a warning: Do NOT take kids to see Dinner For Schmucks, they should be at least 12 to see it. Why? A lot of the huor in this film is very heavy for PG-13.
The direction in Dinner For Schmucks is great. I really love how Jay Roach directed a light-hearted comedy, and succeeded. Every attempt at a light-hearted comedy these days would fail, except this movie. Kay Roach is the man, directing all 3 Austin Powers films (they're good, not great), Meet the Parents, Meet the Fockers, and now Little Fockers (which comes out in 13 days), and now this. There hasn't been a Jay Roach film I haven't like yet, and I will BET you that Little Fockers will not disappoint me.
The pacing in Dinner For Schmucks is the weakness of this film. Some scenes drag on a little bit too long. Also this film is probably 2 hours long. But it feels like 2 hours and 20 minutes. But that's okay because I was engaged with this film the entire time. Other than that, I have 0 complaints for this movie.
Also, Dinner For Schmucks is a remake of a classic French film. But I don't care if it's a remake, because it doesn't feel like one. A lot of the films we have today are remakes, or remakes of classics. Examples: The Karate Kid, Alice In Wonderland, The A-Team (it's a classic TV show), A Nightmare On Elm Street, Piranha 3D, True Grit (I actually really want to see that), Clash of the Titans, and now this. All of these movies we've seen before, and none of us have seen the original Dinner For Schmucks (or whatever it was called in French).
Overall, Dinner For Schmucks is awesome. It has great acting, clever dialogue and humor that were both funny, good direction, and it pretty dumb too. But that doesn't matter, because it's funny.
I give Dinner For Schmucks 4.5/5 stars. Thanks for reading my quick review of the funniest film of 2010.

The Kansas Highway Patrol says blowing dust caused an accident that killed a man in central Kansas.
Thirty-year-old Brandon H. Stein of Great Bend died Monday afternoon in an accident on U.S. 56 about seven miles west of Great Bend.
The patrol says Stein's vehicle collided with the trailer of a semi-trailer truck that had stopped in the eastbound lanes of the highway because of visibility problems caused by the dust and other accidents.
The Great Bend Tribune reports responders reported zero visibility when they tried to reach the accident, prompting authorities to close the highway from Great Bend to Pawnee Rock.
The Kansas winds caused travel problems for drivers and cancelled flights for passengers Monday.
In northwest Kansas, US-83 in Thomas and Sheridan Counties from US-24 to the K-383/83/23 junction was closed due to high winds and blowing dust. Officials closed K-27 from Goodland to US-36 due to similar conditions.
Both US-83 and K-27 were back open as of 8:13 p.m. on Monday.
In central Kansas, US-56 between Great Bend to Pawnee Rock was also closed. Multiple vehicles were involved in an accident, including a Barton County Sheriff's vehicle. Blowing dust may be to blame for the accident.
Several flights in to and departing Mid-Continent Airport have been cancelled due to high winds.
A wind advisory remains in effect for most of the state until 7 p.m.

Online games have been used to model scientific problems before, but this is the first time an online gaming community gets credit for a scientific journal article . A new study published in the journal Nature discusses the role players of the Foldit game are helping researchers find out more about protein structure.
Proteins are large molecules made up of amino acids that are capable of many things; from catalyzing biological activity, to physically supporting tissues. One of the first pieces of the puzzle in understanding a particular protein is to know about its 3D shape, or conformation. That's what Foldit does. Users are presented with a partially folded protein as determined by an algorithm. They use a number of tools built into the interface to align the protein's folds of amino acids until they find the lowest energy state. This is the shape a protein must have in order to perform its function.
The study authors notes that different players have different play styles. Some were adept at making large scale changes to approximate the final shape. Others had a knack for fine tweaking of the structure to find the perfect conformation. When gamers combined their skills, they accomplished some real science. Researchers in other fields are considering employing gamers in similar ways after the success of Foldit. The next time someone tells you you're wasting time playing games, tell them about this.

ABANDONED: Lambertville High School Lambertville, New Jersey
- Uploaded by chrischaos88 on Dec 14, 2013
- Views: 193
Lambertville High School was built in 1854 in Lambertville, New Jersey. A fire destroyed much of the school in 1926, but it was remodeled and rebuilt in 1927 and used until June 1959. Since then it has sat abandoned and vandalized ever since. During the 50's and 60's many "smaller" schools became obsolete and were replaced with regional schools to accommodate larger classes. After it closed as a school it sat unused for about 30 years until vandals set fire to it destroying much of the property.
There are many stories of hauntings and paranormal occurrences at this location, but to date no murders or anything like that occurred at Lambertville.
When we visited this location it was in bad shape, debris was everywhere. The most disturbing thing we saw was the abandoned car seat in the woods several feet from the building itself. The stone sign for the school was still near the door where we stopped to pose for pics. Graffiti littered the walls of the school and evidence of vandals and partying were in every room. We feared for the integrity of the structure and hoped that we didn't fall thru the crumbling floors. On the roof there were trees actually growing thru floor.

Music showcase · October 2014
NZ On Air is proud to sponsor the VNZMA Critics' Choice Prize again in 2015.
We make grants of up to $10,000 — that's $4,000 to record a song and $6,000 towards making a music video. We call it Making Tracks.
Got a great song you think has great potential? Find out how to apply for music funding.
When we've funded a great song, our next job is to help put it in front of an audience.
NewTracks: we promote songs to radio stations so they'll play them.
Music programmes: we fund a number of programmes on radio and TV that showcase New Zealand music and artists.
NZ music online: we reach out to the audience on line.
We have advice, templates and resources to help you get your song funded and recorded, and to help you find an audience - on radio, on TV and on line.
Help me get my music out there
This month we have funded 20 great new tracks to the tune of $180,000.
NZ On Air's Annual Report for the 2014/15 year has today been tabled in Parliament by the Hon. Amy Adams, Minister of Broadcasting.
NZ On Air has appointed David Ridler as the funding agency's new Head of Music and Radio, leading the funding and promotion of local music.
Decisions from NZ On Air's November 2015 Making Tracks funding round

hi, I am in search of panniers for my MTB, several month ago I read a big travel log somewhere, and the biker was using montell panniers and it looked great in the picture. But I just can't find anything on Monbell panniers, the brand montbell seems to be from Japan, but from their website, I just can't find any panniers.
- does any one use this pannier and would recommend it? Where do you buy it anyway?

The urban dictionary defines it as a woman that's bobbing her head in the same motion when giving a man oral sex, but it has picked up new meanings along the way like the words "bitch, the N word, fag, etc"
MY definition of a chicken head is a female that will fall for anything and say yes to anything because when a chicken clucks its head it goes up and down, never side to side, hence CHICKEN HEAD. My examples below should prove this theory.
But before we get started, fellas, many of you complain that women make bad choices when it comes to choosing a mate, but you guys are just as GUILTY. Now it's okay, we've ALL been there and anyone that says otherwise is full of crap.
Some guys get so caught up in looks and infatuation that you'll settle for nonsense or not even pay attention to it because you are in LUST! You don't even see the red flags slapping you upside your dome! Then later when her representative goes away and her true self comes out, you complain, complain complain, that all women aren't shit and may never allow your heart to open up again which can be very bad for a REAL WOMAN when she walks into your life.
You may miss a blessing all because ONE CHICKEN HEAD screwed you over and you will let that ONE instance dictate the course of your love life, when in actuality, it was partly your fault for not paying attention to the RED FLAGS and to her looks more! Again, it's okay, don't beat yourself up, we've ALL been there but it's time to stop playing the victim!
Believe it or not, there are some really good women out there but you have to ask yourself, do you pay attention to the red flags or more to her looks? The only way you can grow is by first being HONEST with yourself, 2nd admitting your fault in it, and 3rd asking yourself what did you learn from those past experiences?
There are so many CHICKEN HEADS roaming the streets that some men can no longer tell what a REAL WOMAN looks like so if you don't know what the red flags are, I'm here to assist you with that.
Here are my TOP 5 SIGNS to spot a CHICKEN HEAD vs. a REAL WOMAN:
1. If you see a chick in the club and she's rocking a Louis Vuitton bag, Gucci bag, or any designer bag and her bag costs more than her net worth, but she's waiting on some guy to buy her a drink - that is a CHICKEN HEAD. A REAL WOMAN doesn't wait on a guy to buy her drink. A REAL WOMAN "ALWAYS" carries her OWN cash and if she doesn't have any money, she will stay home. The ONLY exception to this rule is if someone invites her on a date and offers to pay. Now it's not saying she's too good or too independent to accept a drink.
In addition, A REAL WOMAN will turn down a free drink from a guy that she's NOT attracted to because she doesn't want him wasting his time or hers, however, A CHICKEN HEAD will say yes to ANY GUY that offers to buy her a drink whether she's interested or NOT. Your best bet is to approach a woman that already has a drink, start a conversation with her and take it from there. When she finishes her drink, if she actually ASKS YOU to buy her another one, that's a CLEAR SIGN that she's not just a CHICKEN HEAD, but a THIRSTY one at that!
NO REAL WOMAN would EVER form her lips to ask a man to buy her a drink UNLESS it's her man! In fact, if the conversation is going well and you take it upon yourself to buy her another drink, if she's REALLY feeling you, A REAL WOMAN will offer to buy the next round.
2. A FEMALE that seeks out men with money ONLY in hopes that she can retire off of him and is in need of someone to financially take care of her kids is not only a CHICKEN HEAD, but she's a thirsty gold digger too! There's nothing wrong with a woman wanting stability, but if that's the ONLY thing she's seeking out in a man, then that's what makes her a CHICKEN HEAD. Some of the signs to look out for are women that go on dates with you, NEVER offer to pick up the tab, NEVER offer to pay half, or NEVER even offer to leave so much as a tip. A CHICKEN HEAD/GOLD DIGGER is a woman that thinks it's an "insult" if she EVER has to pay.
A REAL WOMAN seeks out a man that will be compatible with her. Although she wants a man with stability, that's not the ONLY thing she looks for. If he has no stability yet, she may entertain getting to know him so long as he shows that he can take care of himself at least. She doesn't need him to pay her bills, rent, etc. A REAL WOMAN will offer to pay by the 3rd date and if she doesn't offer to pick up the entire tab, she will at least offer to pay half, EVEN IF YOU ARE FILTHY ASS RICH! It's just the polite thing to do because she is NOT a LEACH!
3. A FEMALE that introduces you to her kids within the first few dates and is introducing YOU as "THEIR NEW" DADDY is a CHICKEN HEAD. When it's that bad, there is a level below a chicken head and that's called CHICKEN HEAD GONE BAD! LOL!
A REAL WOMAN will wait months before bringing her kids around you because she puts her kids safety and well being above ALL else. She takes her time with you because she doesn't know if you're a rapist, child molester, if you even like kids, or if you're willing to take her seriously because she has kids. She wants to make sure you're in it for the LONG HAUL before she opens her kids up to you. **The ONLY exception to this rule is if you were introduced to her by a mutual friend that she thinks highly of and knows her friend would probably not introduce her to some scrub OR if you happen to meet her in a setting where her kids were with her i.e. PTA meeting, etc, but even then she will take her time before she brings them around you again.**
4. If a FEMALE actually entertains a SCRUB (we've all heard the TLC song i.e. the guy hanging out the passenger side of his boys car or the guy that name drops), his boy pulls up in his mama's car and he's hollering at her like she works on Stuart Ave., he might even go as far as saying "HEY HOE?", his ONLY conversation is who he knows and how much money he has and her silly ass will actually talk to him SIMPLY because they're rolling in a BENTLEY. Her ass is so dumb, she thinks if she gives him the kitty, she'll be able to roll in that BENTLEY with him and be SEEN. A CHICKEN HEAD is someone who always wants to be seen and uses others to be seen because they have NOTHING going for themselves. A CHICKEN HEAD is THIRSTY for 15 minutes of fame and will do whatever it takes to get it including sleeping with guys that have big diamond chains because she assumes they must have money.
A REAL WOMAN doesn't care if a man is driving a BENTLEY or NOT! A car doesn't impress a REAL WOMAN because she knows that it's how a man treats her that matters, NOT what his wheels look like. A REAL WOMAN actually prefers a man that's not trying to show off his car, house, or money to land her but actually stepping to her by simply being HIMSELF.
5. A CHICKEN HEAD has no or very low self esteem and does not know her own worth so she constantly settles for OTHER WOMEN's MEN. She has no problem being #2, #3, etc. because she needs another woman's man to validate her existence and boost her self esteem because she has NONE. She actually thinks that because he's giving her attention that she must be special and in some cases CHICKEN HEADS think they're MORE special than his main woman. A CHICKEN HEAD will actually wait it out in hopes that he will dump his main woman to be with her.
She will do everything possible to land him acting like she's caring, doesn't nag, she is basically nothing more than a servant to this man. If he says JUMP, she'll jump. She has no problem with this and has actually convinced herself that it's okay and she prefers being the other woman. If a man's not too careful, she may even try to sabotage the condom by puncturing a hole in it, trying to get the semen from it and inserting it in herself just to get pregnant in order to keep this man.
***Fellas, that's why it's mandatory that you always buy the condoms and keep them in your possession at ALL TIMES.***
She will even go as far as to plant evidence of this so-called relationship (i.e. panties, bras, makeup, receipts, etc.) in his car or somewhere his woman will find it. If he ever finally decides to dump her, she's the kind of FEMALE that will vandalize his car, stalk him, stalk his woman, call his job all hours of the day and night, try to black male him, etc... all just to keep him!
And don't let him be famous, she'll show up on interviews with Barbara Walters crying that she's the victim and that he promised her he would leave his wife! LOL! Again, she wants fame so badly, she doesn't care if she makes an ass of herself to get it and she sees nothing wrong with this!
A REAL WOMAN doesn't need a man to validate her existence, however, she's not too independent to realize that she would like to have a man that appreciates her just as much as she appreciates him. She wants a man that adds to her life, not subtracts. A REAL WOMAN would NEVER settle for being a NUMBER and would NEVER give a man that's already taken a 2nd look because she knows she's worthy of having her OWN man and doesn't want to disrespect another woman.
A REAL WOMAN will not allow a man to disrespect her in any way, shape, or form. Anything less than this is just not acceptable for her. A REAL WOMAN also knows she's not perfect and if she makes a mistake - she will admit to it, apologize sincerely, and take the necessary steps to correct her actions whereas CHICKEN HEADS think they can do no wrong, constantly play the victim and think that it's everyone else's fault their life is in turmoil.
CHICKEN HEADS also have no problem being a baby mama for the rest of their lives so long as the government checks or baby daddy checks keep rolling in. CHICKEN HEADS will take that money and buy themselves a bag before they'll even feed their own child.
Some other signs of chicken heads that didn't make it to the TOP 5.
- A CHICKEN HEAD will sleep with the photographer from the club simply because he carries a camera. Again, she wants her 15 minutes of fame and will do whatever it takes to get it!
- CHICKEN HEAD's will steal from their own friends and family just so they can buy the newest GUCCI bag!
- CHICKEN HEADS also have no plans for a career, they go around telling people they're a model knowing FULL and WELL the ONLY modeling they've ever done was with their own cell phone!
- CHICKEN HEADS have no idea what it takes to be a REAL WOMAN so they tell people they are taking real estate classes but the only real estate classes they've ever taken are the imaginary ones.
- CHICKEN HEADS try to get in everyone's VIP section, invite all of their CHICKEN HEAD girlfriends and drink up all the liquor then bounce when the liquors gone without even saying thank you!
- When asked on a date, a CHICKEN HEAD will invite all of her CHICKEN HEAD girls on the date too without saying a word, then 'expect' the guy to pay for all of their CHICKEN HEAD asses.
- A CHICKEN HEAD will go on a trip with a guy then try to get with another guy while on a trip that may have more money or fame and will even leave him to be with the other guy if the other guy is willing to take her.
- A CHICKEN HEAD will eyeball another man in your presence EVEN if this other man has a woman in his presence. Again, she has no self esteem so any attention is good attention to her.
- A CHICKEN HEAD doesn't dress appropriately for the occasion. She will show up at a classy soiree in her stripper outfit and wonder why people are so-called hating on her LOL.
- A CHICKEN HEAD will put all her bills in her kids names.
- A CHICKEN HEAD will try to have as many kids as possible because that's how she keeps an income.
- A CHICKEN HEAD will lie on her kids and not even claim them, she will say her daughter is really her sister and her son is really her brother.
- A CHICKEN HEAD gets loud in classy environments and thinks nothing is wrong with it because she doesn't think she's loud.
- A CHICKEN HEAD will keep applying for unemployment even when it has expired because she's too lazy to get a job.

A comment on the Clearest Code Challenge inspires this post. In particular the bit about how someone can figure out the code if it's commented, "no matter how crap the code is".
Comments are smelly. Really. From Ward's Wiki: "Refactor the code properly and you won't need comments." My OO Jedi Master insisted I detail the implications while blindfolded & blancing an LCD panel on my nose. There may be typos.

Cutting up old t shirts is a stylish way to stretch your wardrobe. This upcycled ruffle shirt from I Love to Create is an easy no-sew project for a fashionista, featuring beautiful rhinestones.
- Aleene's® Fabric Fusion® Permanent Dry Cleanable Fabric Adhesive
- Tulip® Fashion Form™
- Tulip® Glam-It-Up!™ Fashion Art Tweezers™
- Tulip® Cordless Heat Setting Tool™
- Tulip® Glam-It-Up!™ Iron-On Crystals™: 23123 300 Clear Pack
- Clothes pins
- 1 white T-shirt, cut into six 18" strips
- White scoop or V-neck women's blouse
- Scissors
- Fold each strip of the T-shirt strip lengthwise and cut the ends to make an oval shape. You want the ends to be pointed. Each strip should look like a long, skinny football. This will give your ruffles a nice shape!
- Start with one strip and add a drop of Fabric Fusion and fold the fabric over to make a ruffle. Use a clothespin to hold in place. Do this all the way down the strip. Continue with other strips. You can remove clothespins from strips after about 10 minutes.
- Insert the Fashion Form inside the top. Set out the strips along the neckline the way you want them. Starting at the top of the shoulder, set down one strip midway between the shoulder and collarbone, this will be the first layer of the ruffles. Now do the same on the other side. Add the second and third strips closer in so you have a graduated, layered ruffled look. Make sure the strips drape loosely down the center of the blouse.
- Make sure you like how it looks, and then remove the top two strips. Apply drops of Fabric Fusion just under the first strip and use the clothespin to secure in place. Wait ten minutes and do the second row, and then the third. If necessary, add drop of glue under a couple of the ruffles down the center to make them look more centered. Let dry and remove clothespins.
- Trim any excess T-shirt fabric to make your ruffles look balanced.
- Use the Tweezers and Heat Setting Tool to add crystals.

Pronounced: or-kee-o-pecks-ee
Testicles should move down from the abdomen into the scrotum before birth. Some boys are born with one or both testicles still inside the abdomen or groin. This is called undescended testicles. Orchiopexy is a surgery to lower the testicle(s) into the scrotum.
© 2009 Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Orchiopexy is done to treat undescended testicles. The surgery may improve fertility. Persons with undescended testicles also have a higher risk of developing cancer later in life. Having the testicle in the scrotum makes it easier to check for early signs of cancer.
Problems from the procedure are rare, but all procedures have some risk. Your child's doctor will review potential problems, like:
Your child's doctor will do the following before the surgery:
Talk to the doctor about your child's medications or any recent illnesses. You may be asked to have your child stop or start certain medications before surgery.
Other things to keep in mind before the procedure include:
General anesthesia will be used. It will keep your child asleep during the surgery and block pain.
Small keyhole incisions will be made in one or both sides of the groin and in the abdomen. Long, thin tools will be passed through the incisions. They will allow the doctor to view and operate inside the body. First, the testicle will be examined.
Next, a pouch will be created in the scrotum. The testicle will be pulled down into the newly created pouch. Stitches will hold the testicle in place. The stitches will dissolve on their own. All other incisions will also be closed with stitches.
In some cases, a small button will be placed on the outside of the scrotum. The button will hold the testicle down until healing occurs. The doctor removes the button by cutting the stitches a few weeks after the procedure.
A medication may be given during the surgery to help manage discomfort after the procedure. In most cases, your child can go home from the hospital on the same day as the surgery.
1 hour per testicle
Anesthesia prevents pain during surgery. Your child will be given medication to relieve pain or soreness during recovery.
During your child's stay, the care center staff will also take steps to reduce the chance of infection, such as:
There are also steps you can take to reduce your child's chance of infection, such as:
When your child returns home, do the following to help ensure a smooth recovery:
It is important to monitor your child's recovery. Alert your child's doctor to any problems. If any of the following occur, call your child's doctor:
If you think your child has an emergency, call for emergency medical services right away.

Picture: Rachel Weisz 36th Annual Toronto International Film Festival - 'The Deep Blue Sea' premiere arrival at TIFF BELL Lightbox. Toronto, Canada - 11.09.11
A Rachel Weisz advert for a L'Oreal anti-wrinkle product has been pulled from UK television and banned by the country's Advertising Standards Authority for "misleadingly" exaggerating its performance, according to reports. The initial complaint over the advert, which first ran as a two-page magazine advertisement back in September of last year, was brought forward by parliamentarian JO SWINSON who claimed that it "misrepresented the results that the product could achieve." The image that promotes the L'Oreal product, named Revitalift Repair 10, shows a close-up black-and-white portrait of Weisz smooth, unblemished face.
Now, Reuters reports that the Asa have released a statement saying that the advert mustn't appear in its current form again, commenting "We told L'Oreal Paris to ensure that they did not use post-production techniques in a way that misrepresented what was achievable using the advertised product." The statement continued, "Although we considered that the image in the ad did not misrepresent the luminosity or wrinkling of Rachel Weisz's face, we considered that the image had been altered in a way that substantially changed her complexion to make it appear smoother and more even," before finishing "We therefore concluded that the image in the ad ... misleadingly exaggerated the performance of the product in relation to the claims 'SKIN LOOKS SMOOTHER' and 'COMPLEXION LOOKS MORE EVEN'."
We're not sure whether Weisz should be flattered by the Asa essentially suggesting that her skin was impossibly perfect; they evidently trust fellow actress Jane Fonda a great deal more, as another similar claim about a product she was endorsing for L'Oreal was rejected, the organisation stating that the advert hadn't been "significantly modified." So there you go: Jane Fonda more truthful about her skin than Rachel Weisz, apparently.

Wow! I like the clean install! That looks great! The blue seems to work in your car very well! Thanks for sharing the pics!
yea, the browser was an oversight on my part. Have a look a couple posts back for a fix till the next release.
I am chatting with LiquidSmoke as I am typing this and he had a good suggestion. Try downloading the latest version of the Microsoft VBRuntime and install that. With the issues you have been having over the past posts, something is definately not right somewhere. This MAY help, but I can't guarantee anything, but its definitely a good idea to try.

Commissioner for Budget and Economic Planning, Mr. Ben Akabueze
By Ejiofor Alike
Desirous of attaining 12,000 megawatts of electricity supply as against the current allocation of about 1,000mw from the national grid, the Lagos State Government would partner local and foreign investors who are committed to building captive power plants in the state.
Commissioner for Budget and Economic Planning, Mr. Ben Akabueze, stated this at a recent media briefing on the preparation for the 2012 Lagos State Economic Summit, christened "EHINGBETI 2012," which comes up next month.
Akabueze pointed out that Lagos had 10 years ago, pioneered the establishment of Independent Power Projects (IPPs) in the country, with the construction of the 270mw-capacity AES Barge.
The commissioner however noted that the challenges in the defunct National Electric Power Authority (NEPA) could not allow the 540mw-capacity Phase 11 of the project to be pursued.
He disclosed that the Federal Government, which could have assisted Lagos State had initially acted as if it were in competition with the state government but added that things were changing in the positive direction as the two governments had set up a joint committee to identify areas of challenges.
He stated that the state government had concluded power audits in most areas of the state to ascertain the actual demand for electricity.
The commissioner disclosed that for its mega-status, Lagos State requires 12,000megawatts of electricity, as against the current allocation of about 1,000mw from the National Grid.
"Mega City, according to the United Nations, is a city with a population of at least, 10million. Lagos and Cairo are the two mega cities in Africa," he said.
Akabueze, who is also the chairman of the Central Planning Committee of the summit said the theme of the conference "From BRICS to BRINCS: Lagos Holds the Key," is strategic.
According to him, Lagos has a significant role to play for Nigeria to join the league of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa (BRICS) to form BRINCS (Brazil, Russia, India, Nigeria, China and South Africa), as part of her Vision 20:20:20 aspiration.
"We believe that Nigeria can rightfully aspire to join that group but for the country to join the group, Lagos has a significant role to play. The fact that over 45per cent of the subscriber base of telephone network is based in Lagos is another pointer to the significance of Lagos to the economic development of Nigeria.
"The two PHCN distribution companies – Ikeja and Eko account for the country's 50 per cent electricity distribution and revenue generation. About 80 per cent of international air travel takes place through Lagos, while the state accounts for 50 per cent of domestic air travel. It was projected that Nigeria's economy should be growing by 13per cent yearly for the country to attain her Vision 20:20:20 aspirations.
"For this to happen, Lagos must grow far higher than this figure to make up for other states that have very low growth. Therefore, Nigeria cannot attain its economic aspiration without Lagos playing key role," he said.
He noted that the summit would revolve around four key areas – power supply, agriculture, housing and urban renewal and transport, adding that these four areas hold the key for Nigeria's economic development.

The Four of Us
An exploration of the space between ideals and reality, Itamar Moses' clever, surprising play takes us inside the lives of novelist Ben (Ryan Johnston) and his best friend, aspiring playwright David (Steven Klein). Ben has just sold his first novel and seems to be on the fast track to success. David, while happy for his friend, tries to hide the envy that consumes him. From this point, we travel down the road of their long-standing friendship, exploring their psyches in depth as scenes shift seamlessly between the past and the present in the tightly woven and complex structure. Far from completely serious, the witty lines and comic moments along the way give the piece a natural and believable feel including one especially funny sequence, when the pair is traveling in Prague, and Ben ends up humping a stuffed bear during a conversation about sex. Michelle Tattenbaum's deft direction not only brings out the humanity in her actors but also challenges them to execute precisely choreographed scene changes. Mark Guirguis' set design and Rachel Myers' costumes support Tattenbaum's staging, with a minimalism that allows the actors to maintain the performances' dramatic momentum.
Thursdays-Saturdays, 8 p.m.; Sundays, 3 p.m. Starts: Sept. 12. Continues through Oct. 19, 2008

The Place Candlenut touts itself as an inspired Peranakan cuisine and I have been wanting to try it for the longest time, given that I am quite a fan of Peranakan fare. Located near Outram Park MRT, the restaurant has a casual setting with a homely ambience.
Candlenut is one of the many merchants on The Entertainer 2015 App, which offers 1-for-1 dining deals for holders of the app or book.
The Food We decided to order all our favourite dishes, and we thought the best starter is the Kueh Pie Tee ($8). The amazing part about Candlenut is that all their paste and sauces are homemade and there is no MSG in their food, which we totally appreciate. I like the idea of making my own Kueh Pie Tee, which also came with braised turnips, pork belly and prawns filling. The crispy cone was one of the main reasons I am addicted to this dish.

Ever stop and look at all the boring similar cars and think how they are filled with all these unique people?
go to a car show, you will see more human emotion put into a peice of metal than any other type of hobby
go to a good guys car show, everybody is unique, you have old rich guys, young wanabees, 50's rocka billy, low rider, the othe rthing would be to ask each of them what they do for a living, i have met people ther that look like a death row prisoner, ask them hey what do you do for a living, doctor, school teacher, micro bioligyst, all kids, i u/s what you mean, the guy next to you at the light could be a mass murderer, future president, owner of microsoft, cars are like clothes today.
Well companies would go bankrupt trying to make customized car for each person.
Uniqueness is not only expressed visually. Sometimes it is expressed in the car we drive, the clothes we wear but it also can be expressed by the manner we speak, react think. Some choose to display their uniqueness, some choose to hide it some do not bother either way.
Well, we do not need to see. We know for a fact that people are unique. It can be empirically tested.
no never
