- The Artist
Fernand Léger (1881-1955) was a French painter, sculptor, and filmmaker. In his early works he created a personal form of Cubism which he gradually modified into a more figurative, populist style. His boldly simplified treatment of modern subject matter has caused him to be regarded as a forerunner of Pop art. The artist's early works were influenced by impressionism and Cubism. Léger's experiences in World War I marked the beginning of his "mechanical period", during which the figures and objects he painted were characterized by tubular and machine-like forms. Starting in 1927, the character of Léger's work gradually changed as organic and irregular forms assumed greater importance. In 1935, the Museum of Modern Art in New York City presented an exhibition of Léger's work. During World War II Léger lived in the United States. In 1954 he began a project for a mosaic for the São Paulo Opera, which he would not live to finish.

This looks almost surreal. Absolutely gorgeous
The colours in this photo work so well with the rosy sky complimenting the dark volcanic sand. Great place and wonderful capture.
Love the black beach, and the strange formations make me think of volcanic plugs left behind after the rest of the volcano is eroded away... great shot!
How absolutely amazing!
Nice shot, has a nice soft feeling to it with the colours
great place
Great picture!
black sand! cool...and beautiful work
Amazing shot!
very cool. beautifully otherworldly
The thumbnail almost looked like it was painted! Very nice photograph.
Love it! It looks lie a fantasy land.
Wow, awesome shot! Love the colors.
Great shot
Beautifully shot, and exactly as I remember them... I miss Iceland so much some times.
I love the added texture of the footprints; that was a great choice.

the other world that is Iceland. Must go one day. I really like this image but wonder if cropping out some of the beach would give a nice leading line and focus the attention back on that surreal stack. Art is art, it's just a thought.
Really great colors!
Hue shift? Looks like a science fiction world
I brought the pinks out in the sky a bit more, but otherwise I didn't really do that much to it.
wonderful view awesome
Seems to be some kind of unreal like a dream. Very nice.

The World is FunnyHaolam Mats'hik
Israel, 2012, 127 Minute Running Time
Topics: Comedy, Family Friendly, Jewish Interest, Middle East
Program: World Cinema NowLanguage: Hebrew English Sub-Titles
The world is funny and wondrously strange in this tender new comedy from the Israeli fabulist Shemi Zarhin (Aviva My Love, PSIFF 2008). Full of quirky charm, this ambitious, multi-strand tale about storytelling – and a fractured family – unfolds in a friendly Tiberias, where reality and fantasy cleverly intertwine.
Budding writer Zafi has trouble composing endings to her stories. Instructed by her workshop leader to write about "people with secrets and lies, wounds and diseases," she uses her housecleaning jobs to sniff out interesting tales. Among the narratives she collects and ties together is the sad story of estranged siblings Yardena, Meron and Golan.
Building a tales-within-a-tale structure, Zarhin alternates the orchestration of the siblings' problematic lives with the stories that Zafi's writing group composes. As the members of the group describe their work, their fanciful stories unfold in black-and-white. And it soon becomes clear that Zafi is not the only member of the group who is writing from life. Zarhin shows how love can both wound and heal, how fiction can make reality bearable, and how humor is the best medicine of all. Nominated for 15 Israeli Academy Awards.

Lots of style and
power for the $
This car is hella fun... I did have to upgrade the exhaust system so it can sound more like a V8. I also installed a cold air intake which woke up the beast even more. This car has a lot of power and taking off the traction control can get you in trouble if you don't warm up the tires first. I've had the car since 2013 and I have put around 44,000 miles on it. I haven't had any serious issues with this car. The only issue I have had is with the rear deck lid speakers vibrating. I took it to the shop and they said the speakers were blown, but I can't fathom why that would be since they are the "upgraded" Boston Acoustic speakers. I would replace them with better aftermarket ones, but after watching some YouTube videos and seeing how difficult it was to get the speakers out, I just took it to the dealership to have them replaced with the same ones (under warranty). Hopefully these will last a bit longer. So that is the only repair I've had to do. Other than that, the only other con is that the car is pretty expensive (to buy and to maintain). Gas is expensive (17MPG), oil changes are expensive (8 quarts Mobil 1 do it yourself = $70), and the payments ($600/month) leave you wondering where your check went. It leaves little room on my income to do any more upgrades or keep up with other minor things that go bad (windshield wipers, tires, etc.) By the way the tires are $300 a piece and i have gone through 3 rear sets of tires and I am currently on my 2nd pair of front tires. So all-in-all, you pay to play. If you have the extra money, it is a great value for an awesome piece of technology. I plan on keeping mine for as long as it will last.
After 2 years and 13,000 miles i have learned to hate this car which only has one flaw. "Active Fuel Management" (otherwise known as AFM or DOD) There are thousands of posts on the internet about this because your lovely V8 drops into 4 cylinder mode and runs like a nissan Sentra with a bad tune. AFM is not on the car with a manual transmission. So I am trading my beautiful Camaro for a Ford Mustang that has a real V8 without this horrible feature.
If you put exhaust on this car with automatic transmission it sounds like a fart mobile every time it goes into 4 cylinder mode. I burn way more gas trying to accelerate the car back into V8 mode.
I recently bought a 2013 Camaro LT with the RS Package (automatic)..best decision I could make! I love my new Camaro, it's a blast to drive, a total head turner. Only complaint is very poor visibility when backing out of a parking spot. So I just back in so I'm pulling out nose first and problem solved. It gets great gas mileage. I constantly get compliments when filling up at the gas station. I bought it with 20K miles on it, it was a lease car turned in and was in perfect condition.
I just got a new 2SS model convertible and all I can say is . . . OMG! I came out of an Audi A4 Avant with the 3.0 engine, which is a great car with excellent performance and appointments. The Camaro is my very first muscle car and convertible, so I thought I'd do it up right. Pretty much everything I've read about it thus far, both pro and con, is true. Bottom-line, it is a beautiful car to look at (LOVE the retro look and feel)--top up or down, and is really a blast to drive. While I will miss the nimbleness of the Audi and its German engineering as compared to the heft of the Camaro, the V8 engine certainly makes it fun to throw that weight around!
Hello everyone, my recent last month experience with my 2113 Camaro 1LT Coupe, had making me question the reliability and durability of the brand.
Just imagine, having your entire tire assemble system with break pats and everything that comes with it, broke apart while you are driving above 70 miles an hours, YOLO,
If you do! Welcome to my world.
For tire-burning power and Hollywood flash, it doesn't get much better than the 2013 Chevrolet Camaro.
Strong acceleration with any engine; head-turning looks; good V6 fuel economy; capable handling.
Poor visibility; cramped backseat; tiny trunk opening.
The 2013 Chevy Camaro gets a new MyLink touchscreen audio system on LT, SS and ZL1 models, as well as a new MyLink-based GPS navigation system option (late availability). SS models equipped with a manual transmission can also be had with a new road-racing-inspired 1LE option package that includes unique gearing, suspension tuning and tires. Hill-start assist is now standard on all manual transmission models.
If ever there was a car to put a mischievous spark in the eye of a driving enthusiast, it would be the 2013 Chevrolet Camaro, the fifth-generation version of this famous nameplate.
For starters, this coupe and convertible have the classic muscle-car looks that cause enthusiasts to drool. In its ZL1 guise -- named after a legendary 1969 model and packing a monster 6.2-liter V8 with a mind-blowing 580 horsepower on tap -- it also gives its pilot the power to do long, smoky burnouts at will. Even the 323-hp V6 of lower trim levels and the 426-hp V8 of the SS model are impressive, meaning there isn't a pokey Camaro in the bunch. Handling also is as sharp as you'd expect, yet the ride is reasonably compliant as well.
In terms of everyday practicality, however, the Camaro has a few shortcomings. Visibility is subpar all around. Rear-seat legroom is virtually nonexistent and the modest-sized trunk is hampered by an opening small enough to make loading longer items like a set of golf clubs a real challenge.
Will you care? Probably not. The Camaro's sex appeal is enough to make many buyers overlook those weaknesses. Still, we'd still recommend test-driving two other reborn pony cars, namely the 2013 Dodge Challenger and 2013 Ford Mustang. Both offer similar performance potential without the Camaro's downsides. That said, we think the 2013 Chevrolet Camaro has what it takes to bring out the playful hooligan in anybody.
The 2013 Chevy Camaro is available in both four-seat coupe and convertible body styles. There are six trim levels, including the V6-powered 1LS/2LS (coupe only) and 1LT/2LT. The V8-equipped 1SS/2SS and ultra-performance ZL1 round out the lineup and are available in both coupe and convertible body styles.
Standard equipment on the entry-level 1LS includes 18-inch steel wheels, automatic headlights, keyless entry, air-conditioning, manually adjustable front seats with power recline, cruise control, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, Bluetooth phone connectivity, OnStar and a six-speaker sound system with a CD player, auxiliary audio input jack and satellite radio. The 2LS adds an automatic transmission.
The 1LT tacks on 18-inch alloy wheels, foglights, remote start (automatic transmission models only), eight-way power seats and the new MyLink smartphone integration, which includes Bluetooth audio capability and a USB port/iPod interface. The 2LT includes these items plus 19-inch alloy wheels, heated mirrors, auto-dimming rearview and driver's outside mirrors, extra gauges, a head-up display, rear park assist, a rearview camera (with a rearview mirror display), leather upholstery, heated front seats and a nine-speaker Boston Acoustics audio system (available separately on 1LT).
The 1SS is equipped similarly to the 1LT but adds a V8 engine, 20-inch alloy wheels, a sport-tuned suspension and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. The 2SS essentially combines the 1SS model's performance bits with the 2LT's convenience and luxury features. A new 1LE option package on manual transmission-equipped SS models includes racetrack-inspired hardware upgrades including unique gearing, suspension tuning and tires.
The ZL1 is equipped similarly to the 2SS but adds ultra-performance upgrades in the form of a supercharged V8, massive Brembo brakes, four-mode stability/traction control, active "Magnetic Ride Control" suspension dampers, unique 20-inch wheels (with Goodyear Eagle F1 tires) and retuned power steering. Exterior styling features include a functional carbon-fiber air extractor for the hood as well as unique front and rear fascias. Inside the cabin are microfiber suedelike upholstery, red accent stitching and a smaller, flat-bottomed steering wheel.
The RS package (available on all trims but the LS and ZL1) adds 20-inch wheels and xenon headlights. A sunroof is optional on all coupe models except the LS, while a variety of exterior stripes and trim detailing are available across the board.
In addition to a soft top that powers down in about 20 seconds, all convertible versions also come standard with rear park assist (includes rearview camera).
The 2013 Chevrolet Camaro LS and LT are powered by a 3.6-liter V6 that produces 323 hp and 278 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed manual transmission is standard and a six-speed automatic is optional. EPA-estimated fuel economy is 19 mpg city/30 mpg highway and 22 mpg combined with the automatic transmission; these numbers drop 2 mpg across the board with the manual gearbox.
The Camaro SS gets a 6.2-liter V8 that produces 426 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque with the standard six-speed manual and 400 hp and 410 lb-ft with the six-speed automatic. With the manual, the SS hits 60 mph in 5 seconds; EPA-estimated fuel economy is 16 mpg city/24 mpg highway and 19 mpg combined. The automatic is only slightly less fuel-efficient at 15/24/18.
The Camaro ZL1 boasts a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 with 580 hp and 556 lb-ft of torque. A six-speed manual transmission is standard, with a six-speed automatic optional. In Edmunds track testing, the ZL1 accelerated from zero to 60 mph in 4.4 seconds. Fuel mileage estimates are 14/19/16 with the manual transmission and 12/18/14 with the automatic.
Every 2013 Chevy Camaro comes standard with antilock disc brakes, stability control, front-seat side airbags and full-length side curtain airbags. Also standard is the OnStar telematics system, which includes automatic crash notification, on-demand roadside assistance, remote door unlocking, stolen vehicle assistance and turn-by-turn navigation.
In government crash tests, the Camaro earned a top five-star rating overall, with five stars for front crash protection and five stars for side-impact protection. In Edmunds brake testing, both Camaro V6 and V8 coupes with 20-inch wheels came to a stop from 60 mph in an excellent 111 feet.
Old-school pony cars weren't known for their jazzy interiors, but the 2013 Chevrolet Camaro makes a clean break with that tradition. Done up with a number of retro touches like square bezels around the gauges, the overall effect is stylish despite the use of a little too much hard plastic. Outward visibility, though, is hampered by thick roof pillars and a low roof line.
The Camaro's new MyLink display interface features a clean layout and intuitive menu structure. Pleasingly, it allows further control of smartphone radio apps, such as Pandora and Stitcher. Unfortunately, the interface can prove frustrating to use at times, as reactions to touch inputs are occasionally slow or missed entirely.
While the front seats are comfortable enough, the Camaro's rear seat is the smallest among its rivals. The trunk is equally tiny at just 11.3 cubic feet, and its small opening also makes loading and unloading of larger items a frustrating experience.
No matter what engine you choose, no one will ever accuse your 2013 Chevrolet Camaro of being slow. Buying a V6 Camaro isn't the stigma it used to be. The V6 responds quickly to the throttle and then revs freely, and the exhaust note is more liter-bike motorcycle than commuter car. Still, the V8 more ably fits the Camaro persona with its tire-shredding power and thundering exhaust note. All of that goes double for the supercharged ZL1.
Around corners, the Camaro grips hard and feels precise through the steering wheel. It's not the easiest car to see out of, and there's a lot of weight to manage, but by and large the Camaro is pretty talented. This year's new 1LE package further ups the car's handling potential, but the world-class ZL1 is in another league entirely. Not only does it deliver acceleration on par with exotic supercars costing many thousands more, but also the high-tech adaptive suspension and upgraded Brembo brakes give it well-rounded performance that works as well on the racetrack as on the daily commute.

I'm running PHP 5.4.5 on Apache 2.2 on Windows XP. Twice :-) Both machines are set up, I think, identically, but one machine works fine while the other one generates the error. (They're both development machines - one is for developing and the other is a quarantined tester)
I've got the extensions php_pdo.dll, php_pdo_sqlite.dll, and php_sqlite.dll all enabled (though of those, only php_pdo_sqlite.dll is in the ext directory, and pdo_sqlite.dll is actually called php_sqlite3.dll - but I understand that's all as it should be.).
If it helps, this fails at construction time. I'm wrapping the PDO with a class of my own: the offending code looks like this:
ADO extends PDO {
function __construct ($cnString = 'sqlite:..') {
parent::__construct ($cnString);
$this->setAttribute (PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
but that doesn't explain what's happening, because, as I said, this works fine on the play machine.
I think I'm just going blind and can't see something obvious :-) Any ideas, folks?
Thanks in advance.

You can never revisit the past, but sometimes all you have to do is travel a little bit to be reminded of where you've been.
I've just spent the past three weeks in New Zealand attending three of the country's major wine conferences, the Hawke's Bay Symposium, the New Zealand Pinot Noir conference in Wellington, and the Nelson Aromatics Symposium. These events were opportunities to check in on the state of Kiwi wine and how it might have changed in the eight years since I last visited, but they also provided cause for some reflection on how wine industries evolve and come of age.
Here in America we've largely forgotten that we once had something to prove when it comes to our wines. The burgeoning but obscure wine roads in many of America's lesser-known states notwithstanding, few Americans question the ability of a bottle made in the USA to hold its own on the world stage. California in particular has long since stopped trying to compare itself to the rest of the world as its primary method of validating quality and relevance.

I went to pick my 4 year old up from preschool and the teacher was waiting with him. Apparently he is very disruptive, tells his teacher no when asked to do something. they have to ask him to do something 1000 times before he does it and then he Laughs uncontrollably and in inappropriate times. We've been working really hard on his listening skills but he just seems to not get it. What can I do as a parent to help him?
preschooler having listening problems...

My almost 4 year old acts a lot like that at home, he just started Preschool and I dont think he does it at school though. I dont know if it is a boy thing or a 4 yr old thing. Just keep working on him respecting others at home and at school. Maybe try an activity for him on the weekend so you can supervise how he acts around others and monitor his behavior. If you let him know its not acceptable and start taking away things he enjoys, he will get it. Be very positive and praise him when he does something good and maybe he will learn. I know I have to ask my son 1000 times to clean up or eat his food, its frusterating. Did the teacher have any suggestions? Maybe kids laugh when he does that at school so he thinks it ok? Looks like you have another child and are pregnant, make sure you have lots of one on one time with him when you can so hes not just acting out at school. Boys are hard sometimes:)

Apple earns $770M profit on sales of $5.26BApple said Wednesday it just completed the most profitable March quarter in the company's history, where earnings rose 88 percent, helped by sales of nearly 1.52 million Macs and 10.5 million iPods.
For the fiscal second quarter ended March 31, 2007, Apple earned a net profit of $770 million, or $.87 per diluted share, on sales of $5.26 billion. Those results compare to a net quarterly profit of $410 million, or $.47 per diluted share, on sales of $4.36 billion in the year-ago quarter.
During the quarter, Apple shipped 1,517,000 Macintosh computers and 10,549,000 iPods, representing 36 percent growth in Macs and 24 percent growth in iPods over the year-ago quarter.
"The Mac is clearly gaining market share, with sales growing 36 percent — more than three times the industry growth rate," said Steve Jobs, Apple's CEO. "We're very excited about the upcoming launch of iPhone in late June, and are also hard at work on some other amazing new products in our pipeline."
Gross margin for the quarter came in at 35.1 percent, up from 29.8 percent in the year-ago quarter. International sales accounted for 43 percent of revenue.
Looking ahead to the third fiscal quarter of 2007, the Cupertino-based company said it expect revenue of about $5.1 billion and earnings per diluted share of about $0.66.
Apple will provide live streaming of its Q2 2007 financial results conference call utilizing QuickTime. The live webcast will begin at 2:00 p.m. PDT on Wednesday. AppleInsider will provide its usual in-depth coverage.

I really like how you emphasized the purple. The colors are perfect
I would love to see you do a rainbow one...
This is not considered rainbow?
Half-way there. Not enough red. It's too pink. I'm a HUGE rainbow fan and though I love this, I do not consider it a perfect rainbow
oh its so coulorful!
This one is really gorgeous, I absolutely loved how you used the different eyeshadows on the bottom lid ^^
What brands did you use?
For this look I used NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk as a base to make the colors pop and for the shadow I used BH Cosmetics second edition 120 palette
Amazing --love the smooth airbrush look of the colors with the defined blacks

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) -- South Carolina's ultimate goal this season is to make the College World Series.
But third baseman James Darnell says fans should relax for now because the Gamecocks cant make Omaha in the first two games.
South Carolina is scheduled to open the season tomorrow against East Carolina, weather permitting.
The Gamecocks have not made the College World Series since 2004, but appear to have their best blend of hitting and pitching since that year's team ended its third straight season in Omaha.
South Carolina's infield is the heart of the lineup with Darnell and first baseman Justin Smoak. The pair combined for 40 homers and 132 RBIs last season.
The Gamecocks went 46-20 last season, losing to North Carolina in the NCAA tournament super regional.

A parade of angry workers hurt on the job spoke Monday about being denied medical care by Pinnacol Assurance, suggesting the state-chartered workers' compensation insurance fund had amassed a surplus on their injured backs.
Mike Byrd, hurt in a work-related car accident in 2004, told a special panel created by the legislature about Pinnacol denying treatments and trying to send a company nurse with him to every one of his doctor's appointments as a "spy."
Like others, Byrd questioned how Pinnacol, a quasi-governmental agency that was struggling to remain solvent a decade ago, could grow so profitable that it has amassed a $700 million surplus.
"I don't know how they did it, but I can't help but wonder if their aggressive scrutiny of claims had something to do with it," he said.
Lawmakers formed the special committee this year to look into Pinnacol's business practices and whether it should remain under the control of state government or have further autonomy. Pinnacol officials have suggested that the quasi-state entity, which is now tax-exempt, could start paying state premium taxes and a lump sum to the state in exchange for greater autonomy.
Steve Stahl, a former firefighter from Durango who said he suffered back injuries in the line of work, told of an eight-year ordeal in which Pinnacol denied him treatments and surgery and only partially relented after he sued. He and other injured workers said they were constantly followed by private investigators with video cameras.
Stahl took particular aim at Ken Ross, chief executive of Pinnacol and a member of the special committee, sitting a few feet away in the hearing room in the state Capitol.
"You complain about not making enough money while spending more on a weekend of fun than many of your claimants make in a year," Stahl said. "Your company's compensation packages are outrageous."
In 2008, Ross received $297,500 in salary and a $131,545 bonus. His total compensation for that year was $448,813.
During the hearing Monday, Ross asked to read a written statement.
"Ensuring that injured workers are treated with care and compassion is at the core of Pinnacol's values," Ross said, reading the statement. "When workers are injured on the job, we are committed to ensuring that they receive timely and appropriate medical care and are safely returned to work."
A few workers said good things about Pinnacol. Ronald Miller of Salida said the insurance fund paid for all of his shoulder surgery and medication after he was injured in a head-on collision in 2008.
"I've got nothing except good to say about what they've done for me," said Miller, who was asked to testify by Pinnacol officials.
More than 12 workers had testified by Monday evening.
John Connell, an attorney who handles workers' compensation cases, said Pinnacol has "a group of physicians that are used with alarming regularity" and who frequently deny claims or treatments.

Well for me the past year has been life changing!! I have lost 103lbs this past year! For the First time in my life! Sure I have lost alittle weight here and there and most times gained some if not all back. All because I didn't have the tools to change the mistakes I was making and would always go back to bad habits. In this past year I have learned so much! Before now I use to think I couldn't do it.. after trying so many times and felling so many times. But something was different this time. Yes I have determination, and for the most part I have the will power!! But Spark people gave me the much needed tools! And All the wonderful people on SP have given me the inspiration and the extra kick of motivation I needed!
Now don't get me wrong I am still learning. And I still have another 107lbs to go to make it to a healthy weight for some one my age and height. And even tho I have lost weight and I feel so much better!! I still have the fight ahead of me. And I know I can't give up!! If I can lose 134lbs total (103lbs being with SP) so far then I can certainly lose the other 107lbs!!! And my friends if I can do this SO CAN YOU!!!
I am no pro at this by far! But I can tell you what has been working for me.
1. Drinking lots of water.. most days I get 12 to 14-- 8 oz glasses a day but I do try to drink more.
2. working out.. even on the days I just don't want to!
2/3 days a week ST 3/5 Days a week Cardio..
my workouts include.. when I first started out.. at 360lbs I started with a recumbent bike, and ST with 10lb dumbbells, I also do many of the ST workouts SP provides.. like: close arm wall push ups, dumbbell side bends, standing and lying abductions.. and many more. Also now I have added an Elliptical in my work outs.. I push mow our yard once a week. & tend to our flower gardens. I also from time to time play wii bowling, boxing and Just dance 2 & 3. Kettlebells,
Theses days I just stay as active as I can! Weather it be working out, cleaning house, swimming, gardening.. anything to stay moving helps lol
3. tracking everything!! it is very helpful to know what you are putting in your body!
4. using this web site and following what it says to do.. it has been so helpful in so many ways,,, you need inspiration, motivation, friends who know what your going threw, tips, advice, what ever you need its HERE!!!!
5. eating healthy as I can and NOT over doing it! & Lowering my calorie needs as I lose weight.. Like SP recommends
6. One of the most important things that has help me is not over-thinking it and STRESSING every little thing!! Just knowing that okay we make mistakes and were gonna have bad days. But tomorrow is Always a NEW Day and there are no mistakes too big to fix!!! Just keep trying!!!
7. Also watching my sodium!
8. also Keeping to a strict sleep schedule.. when I say that I mean I try to go to bed the same time every night and get up the same time every morning.. always trying for 8 hours of sleep no more no less.
Okay so like I said theses are the things that have been helping me. I know everyone is different. And I hope this helps answer some of the questions I received in my blog!!
Okay so after my last blog .. "Photos of me from a year ago and today." I have to say I wasn't thinking anything about it when I posted the pictures and I am not sure its even sunk in with me yet that I have lost so much weight. I think I just keep looking at how much I have to go. Not how much I have lost and I think alot of us do that.
I just have to say that I posted those pictures after a few friends had asked to see new pics.. with no thought what so ever of so many SP seeing the blog and commenting! I m still in awe over all the wonderful comments and friend request I have been getting. And I just wanted to say THANK YOU to you all for all the wonderful comments and the Friend adds! I never in a million years thought I would be here, doing this! Nor would I have thought I would be giving inspiration to so many. WOW is all I can say.. I am at lost for words!
So again a HUGE THANK YOU to You ALL! It might take me months but I do plan on commenting back to you all.
PS. I made it to 249.5 lbs today!! 8-10-2012 I m so excited! 99.5 lbs to go to get to 150lbs!! WOO HOO that gives me 141.5lbs gone (total weight loss)

We've been taught to be forward thinkers: "Don't dwell/live in the past, work towards the future." We as a society have been programmed to keep thinking about and reaching for our goal, and we're scolded for thinking too much/hard about what's already past and over with. Which is great for things like regret, remorse, etc., but not useful for feeling successful, proud, or remembering fondly.
Sure, we shouldn't dwell in the past, but it's okay to go visit every now and then just to see how far we've come!
Congratulations on all your hard work, and good luck for your hard work yet to come!

Eslinger, West Point Class of 2007, receives 2009 Nininger Award
September 24, 2009
By Tommy Gilligan, Pointer View Assistant Editor
From the day recruits enter the Army, the training they receive can save their lives and the lives of others. The lessons that Soldiers are taught become second nature, without thinking about what the situation is, and the Soldiers react to overcome any adversity that is presented to them.
Four years ago, the West Point Association of Graduates created the Alexander Nininger Award, which is presented to a company grade officer who displayed a selfless act of heroism in combat, much like the actions the award's namesake performed to receive the Medal of HonorA,A posthumously for his actions in the Philippine Islands Jan. 12, 1942.A,A
The WPAOG selected 1st Lt. Nicholas Michael Eslinger, Class of 2007 and Silver Star recipient, as this year's recipient for his actions on his last combat deployment.
On Oct. 1, 2008, then 2nd Lt. Eslinger led his unit's second dismounted patrol of the day through the city streets of Samarra, Iraq.
"We left our forward operating base to search five houses in a neighborhood that had not been searched in some time," the Oakely, Calif., native said. "We were well-rested and prepared for the evening that we were about to endure-just like any other night."
The mission of the evening was similar to many others- comb the area for insurgents and gather intelligence from all individuals encountered through the evening.
"As we entered the alley next to the third house, I saw a grenade come over the wall, much like we have been briefed about," the 25-year-old said. "I was the only one in position to grab the grenade."
Eslinger explained with the way his men were positioned, he was the only one who had the potential of preventing his Soldiers from getting wounded or killed.
"I dove in front of the grenade as it rolled toward my saw gunner," Eslinger said. "As I blocked it, in the same motion, I rolled and threw it in the air toward the wall it had been thrown over."
Eslinger said by what he had learned about the physics of how a grenade rolls-he had to react fast.
"People have asked me why I did not just scream 'grenade,' but I just knew that would not have done anything," Eslinger said.
The former platoon leader of the 2nd Battalion, 327th Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division, feels there are many people out there that do not get recognized for their actions. Before departing for Ranger School, Eslinger was awarded the Silver Star for his actions during that patrol on March 16, 2009, by U.S. Army Chief of Staff Gen. George W. Casey Jr., in a ceremony at Fort Campbell, Tenn.
"There are heroes at every rank from E-1 to O-10, and way too often the American public just does not hear about what they have done," the recent Ranger school graduate said.
This past week, Eslinger came back to West Point for the first time since he graduated in 2007 to speak to the cadets during some of the Junior Leader Panels held Sept. 17-18.
"This panel gives us (Soldiers in the field) the ability to speak with Firsties in an open forum to answer any questions they may have about the field," Eslinger said. "It also allows me to share my experience that I had when I got to my first unit."
Eslinger credits his experience at USMA and his noncommissioned-officer-in-charge in the field for making him the leader he has become.
"The number one thing I learned is to take care of my Soldiers," Eslinger said. "You have to be able to relate to your people because without that you cannot effectively lead your troops."
The 2009 Alexander Nininger recipient embodies the spirit of the award's meaning. He is a prime example to the cadets, who shortly after they leave West Point could be in the very same shoes as Eslinger and be called upon to make those very same decisions.

The boy who collapsed during basketball practice at La Center Middle School on Tuesday remained in critical condition Wednesday at a Portland hospital.
Cody Sherrell, 14, was listed in critical condition at The Children's Hospital at Legacy Emanuel in Portland, a nursing supervisor said.
Meanwhile classmates and teachers at his school attempted to get through the day as usual.
"It was very somber," Wednesday morning, said Mark Mansell, superintendent of the La Center School District. Staff is concerned and heavy hearted, he said.
Grief counselors will meet with the 40 other students that were at the practice and will be available through the day for others who would like to talk, Mansell said.
At this point it is unclear what caused Sherrell to collapse.
The teen's physical was clean and he reportedly had no prior existing medical conditions, Mansell said.
Mansell said the incident happened toward the end of the school's first day of basketball practice. The group was on a break when the boy sat down and then fell over, Mansell said.
Basketball coach Tom Rice immediately responded to the boy and provided CPR, Mansell said. The boy was breathing at first but later "faded away," he said.
Clark County Fire & Rescue responded to the middle school just before 5 p.m. Firefighters began administering CPR and took the boy to Legacy Salmon Creek Medical Center, La Center Police Chief Tim Hopkin said.
The boy was transferred to The Children's Hospital at Legacy Emanuel in Portland later in the day.
Superintendent Mansell visited with the family at Legacy Salmon Creek. He said the boy's parents were shaken. They came to greet him and wanted to make sure their son's teammates and fellow students were supported. They are "very unselfish people"" he said.
"It's heartbreaking" Mansell said. "Our La Center family is very close a tremendous number of our staff are deeply affected by this."

Katniss:Girl On Fire by RatgirlstudiosWatch
©2011-2016 Ratgirlstudios
I was recently commissioned by the MTV blog Hollywood Crush [link] to draw Jennifer Lawrence as five different Katniss Everdeens. Here's the Girl on Fire.
Wow these are just so incredibly good!!! She looks so beautiful here, I love her braid!!
jk. srry. just wanted to see if my comment would b changed
i hate cats
Finally, one that actually looks like what the book described. Gosh!
Oh I love this. The contrast and colours are stunning. Perfect for looking like smouldering embers. Fantstic work.
Oh my gosh! Nice job!
This even better then I imagined it.
FABULOUS!!! I read the Article months ago and was like Woow these are great!
FABULOUS!!! I read the Article months ago and was like Woow these are great!
As much as I love your drawings (really they are just stunning), I cannot stand their choice for Katniss. I mean seriously, a white, blonde chick to play an olive skinned, dark haired 16 year old that is totally badass. Anyone else seeing the wrong in this? Mehhhh. Sorry, random rant. But I really do enjoy your drawing. Just replace the face xD
Sorry I got paid for that face so no changes. Don't worry I don't plan on doing my Hunger Games artwork with Jennifer Lawrence's face. I think she's a good actress and though she isn't the physically description of Katniss I think it may turn out okay. I remember when they cast Daniel Craig as the new James Bond and there was outrage, but once I saw him on screen I realized he really did embody Bond.
True, however, if the appearance isn't right for me, then it's too distracting during the movie, and her acting doesn't matter. Honestly, I think they should have just waited a bit longer for someone new. I don't like seeing the well known actors playing in movies for my favorite books. It ruins the feeling I think. Oh wells. And I was only joking haha. You don't have to replace her face. That's just what I think would make the picture better ha. All just a joke though :b
LOVE this
eh... i'm still doubting about Jen as Katniss. i think she's too old, and doesn't fit Katniss right. she's also too tall and not skinny enough for Katniss.
i like Kaya Scoldelario or Alexandra Daddario for Katniss
but LOVE the drawing! keep it up!
i like Kaya Scoldelario or Alexandra Daddario for Katniss
but LOVE the drawing! keep it up!
I agree with you whole-heartedly. If they just would have waited a tad bit longer they would have gotten a better result. I hate that they always rush these processes.
I think Suzzane Collins should officially designate you the costume desinger :3 Very lovely. All pictures.
i think she would make a pretty good katniss...nice job! (: <3

Looks like I found myself a new wallpaper.
Province: Cyrodiil is a mod for The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. It aims to create the province of Cyrodiil, also known as the Imperial Province. This creation is based heavily upon the lore describing the region in The First Pocket Guide to the Empire. Many will recognise Cyrodiil as the province in TES4 Oblivion, but you will find that this iteration is vastly different and should provide many new experiences for TES fans.
Looks like I found myself a new wallpaper.
wtf is that morrowind OO looks like the alpha scrrens from Oblivion, amazing!!!!!!
Is that the Imperial Palace I see?
Our new buildings for the Gold Coast. Muspila redesigned the buildings from Morrowind and this is what we came up with.

RP Signs Anti-Terror Pact with Australia
EVER since the Bali bombing in
2002 which killed 190 people, 90 of them Australians, Australias Prime Minister John Howard has taken regional terrorism very seriously indeed. In her national day remarks last January 26th, Australias Ambassador to the Philippines Ruth Pearce referred to President Arroyos description of Australia and the Philippines as strategic partners for peace, security, and development in the Asia Pacific Region and reminded her guests that during his official visit in July, 2003, the Prime Minister had announced a counter terrorism assistance package for the Philippines designed to strengthen existing port and border security and enhance law enforcement cooperation between the two countries.
On April 20th, the Philippines and Australia signed the anti-terror pact which initially provides the Philippines with $3.65 million to improve intelligence-gathering capacity and forensic capabilities of local law enforcement officials, part of an overall 3-year $5-million package. Philippine National Police (PNP) deputy Director Reynaldo Velasco on behalf of the Philippines and Australian Federal Agent Frank Prendergast signed for the Australian Federal Police.
Australia, which has maintained a police liaison office in Manila since 1985, and assisted on local investigations of terrorist activities, hopes eventually to form an Asia-Pacific regional intelligence exchange program to cooperate on terrorist activities. …

10-Digit Dialing Procedures Under Way For Callers In Northeastern Pennsylvania's 570 Area Code
SCRANTON, Pa., April 3, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Callers in the 570 area code in northeastern Pennsylvania, including Scranton, Williamsport and Wilkes-Barre, should now start dialing 10 digits (area code and the seven-digit telephone number) to complete their local phone calls. The new way of dialing is necessary to prepare the region's telephone customers for mandatory 10-digit dialing, starting in September. The change paves the way for the October introduction of northeastern Pennsylvania's newest area code – 272. Called an "overlay," the new code will serve the same geographic boundary as the current 570 area code. The overlay will eliminate the need to split the existing area code into smaller areas."An overlay minimizes disruption for our customers because their telephone numbers, including their current area code, will not change," said Carl E. Erhart, Verizon area vice president. "But it's important for customers to get into the habit of always dialing the 10-digit number when they make calls within the 570 area code." The Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission approved the implementation of the area code overlay in July 2010, following a recommendation from the North American Numbering Plan Administrator, a neutral third party that is responsible for the day-to-day administration, assignment and management of area codes in the United States. Verizon, along with other telecommunications providers in the area, have been following the commission's direction to prepare for the overlay. The NANPA selected 272 as the new area code number for the area currently serviced by the 570 area code. During the six-month permissive dialing period, affected customers can dial either seven or 10 digits to complete their calls. Starting Sept. 21, ten-digit dialing will be required for all telephone calls made in the 570 area code. If callers forget to dial 10 digits, they will hear a message instructing them to dial both the area code and seven-digit telephone number. Even with the dialing change, local calls will still remain local calls. However, customers will need to reprogram any automatic dialing equipment or services that are programmed to dial a seven-digit number. This includes life safety systems, fax machines, Internet dial-up modems, alarm and security systems, gates, speed dialers, call forwarding settings and voice mail services.

Fifty years ago, I was a shy high school kid in Salt Lake City. I was more likely to be found with my nose in a book or watching "Shindig" on TV than out raising cain.
I knew some cain-raisers, though. For a while, one of their fads was to drive around Salt Lake City's Liberty Park, a known meeting place for gay men.
If they caught one alone, they'd take his money and beat him up. For these kids, it was a cruel kind of blood sport.
Shy kid that I was, I didn't join those escapades. But I look back with remorse because, at the time, I didn't see much problem, either.
The police didn't much care. If a gay man reported the mugging, the police would just lecture him. Those rough kids never worried about getting caught.
Society was brutally homophobic. I was homophobic, too, as bad as anyone I knew.
Fifty years have passed. I've learned a lot. I've gotten to know all kinds of folks. I've found out, none of us is really any better than anybody else. "Gay marriage?" That's just marriage.
The legal status of same-sex marriage is moving so fast now, it's hard to keep up. A federal judge struck down Indiana's ban on June 25.
In the two days before an appeals court put that decision on hold, a bunch of same-sex couples got married. I'm proud to say, I had the honor to perform one of those weddings.
By the time the Bartholomew County Clerk's Office finally started giving out licenses, a retired Presbyterian minister was at the courthouse to perform weddings on the spot.
I'm still kind of a shy kid, though. I didn't go downtown. I just put out word that I would be at our church, ready to marry any couple that could show they were actually a couple.
Sure enough, a couple I knew did call. They'd been together a few years. Now they had a license and wanted me to wed them before the court changed its mind.
A half-hour later, they arrived with family. We went into the sanctuary, and I performed a standard wedding ritual — just a word changed here and there to fit the landmark occasion.
When I agreed to marry this same-sex couple, I thought I was just doing my job — standing up for equal human rights. But as we went through the wedding service, it became more deeply moving than I had expected.
The couple cried as I led them through the vows. The witnesses got damp-eyed, too. But I got mistier than anyone.
This meant so much to these two human beings. To be part of their joy and common humanity was — I have to say — among the most spiritual moments of my long life.
Lawyers and posturing politicians and religious zealots can keep arguing — and they will. But we're privileged to witness something bigger than all that.
"What God hath joined together, let no man put asunder." Point well taken.
Indiana's General Assembly can try to ban anything it wants. But a loving marriage is bigger than politics.
Our tiny human prejudices will slowly catch up. Not that long ago, interracial marriage, female ministers and even women voting were seen as scandalous violations of "natural law," as well.
