Paris, the City of Lights? (Part II)
Even on the first day I was in Paris, I knew it wasn't the City of Lights it was boasted to be.

And those perceptions aren't inaccurate — there just such a small picture … Continue reading
Paris, the City of Lights? (Part I)
Paris, with the beautiful Eiffel Tower lit up at night almost like a watch tower, has been dubbed "the city of lights". There are always people, always things happening.

That is, until one weekend of infidelity and an unwanted pregnancy threaten to destroy it all. Plunged into a nightmare of lies and legal manoeuvrings. Wyatt is forced to face the unthinkable. With just one desperate act - one he claims not to have committed-a man, his town and his country are thrust into an explosive legal battle. In an electrifying trial that reverberates with the media frenzy and high emotions of a case that could overturn precedent, Wyatt faces the fight of his life.

Mediterranean Diet Helps Prevent and Treat Metabolic Syndrome continued...
"This is an excellent study in terms of depth -- to combine 50 studies for a total of over half a million participants is tremendous and gives excellent ... information," says Jessica Bartfield, MD, an internist at Gottlieb Memorial Hospital, part of Loyola University Health System in Maywood, Ill.
"The conclusion that consumption of a Mediterranean diet lowers the prevalence and progression of the metabolic syndrome helps better support data from trials that already suggest this," she says in an email. "We know omega-3 fatty acids, which are found in olive oil and other monounsaturated fats, are anti-inflammatory."
Inflammation is a known risk factor for heart disease and stroke, she says. "It makes sense that a Mediterranean diet can tame this inflammation and provide a protective benefit," she says.
That said, the new study does have its share of limitations. "The studies varied greatly in terms of length with some as short as four weeks, some as long as four years, and only a few were conducted in the U.S. population where the food culture varies tremendously by region," she says.
But "in the never-ending quest for the 'perfect diet' -- low-fat, high-protein, low-carb, no-sugar ... I would say that the Mediterranean diet comes pretty close," she says.
Simple Changes, Big Benefits
Suzanne Steinbaum, MD, director of women and heart disease at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City, is a big advocate of the Mediterranean lifestyle. "This is the only thing I recommend for people," she says. "This is a lifestyle, not a diet."
Little changes go a long, long way, she says.
"Fats don't have to be creamy," she says. "Cook with a tomato-based sauce with olive oil, and get rid of fried foods and grill with olive oil instead," she says. "Choose different grains instead of white rice, and eat more fish and nuts and legumes and vegetables."
Being more active is also a part of this lifestyle, she says.

A state constitutional amendment placed on the November ballot by the Legislature would require the state to set aside more money during economic booms. That rainy-day account could then be tapped only under certain circumstances, such as a natural disaster or another recession.
Even in the depths of the ongoing state budget crisis, lawmakers are thinking about the next economic boom.
A state constitutional amendment placed on the November ballot by the Legislature would require the state to set aside more money during economic booms. That money could then be tapped only under certain circumstances, such as a natural disaster or another recession.
Senate Joint Resolution 8206 is aimed at dealing with unusually rapid growth in state revenue, similar to what happened in the boom years leading up to the recent recession, said Sen. Joe Zarelli, R-Ridgefield, the prime sponsor of the measure.
Zarelli said he views that kind of tax revenue increase as one-time money. "This says we're going to save a portion of that into the rainy-day fund," he said.

Most Read Stories
He maintains that if the amendment had been in place before the recession hit, the Legislature would have had an easier time handling budget shortfalls.
Zarelli was one of the main backers of a constitutional amendment, approved by voters in 2007, that created the state rainy-day account.
The state, as a result, already sets aside 1 percent of general-fund revenue each fiscal year into the rainy-day account. The money can be used during economic downturns and emergencies, or by a three-fifths vote of the Legislature.
Senate Joint Resolution 8206 would send more money to the account when economic times are good.
Under the amendment, if tax collections in any given year grow by more than one-third than they did during the previous 10 years on average, the state must set aside some of that money. It requires three-fourths of the amount above the one-third to go into the rainy-day account, according to legislative staff. The other fourth can be spent.
However, the provision applies only if the money in question exceeds what the state Constitution already requires to be set aside. And the amendment would not apply in the midst of bad economic downturns.
A recent Elway Research poll found 43 percent of voters surveyed supported the measure, 19 percent were opposed and 38 percent were undecided. The poll surveyed 407 voters statewide on Oct. 19-20. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 5 percentage points.
There are no campaigns supporting or opposing the measure, but Rep Zack Hudgins, D-Tukwila, said he thinks it's a bad idea.
The current rainy-day account is enough, he said. The state may need the money this amendment could take away in the future to help pay for services such as education and health care.
"It's not a question of whether we should save, but how much we should save," he said.
Another amendment on the ballot, Senate Joint Resolution 8205, would clean up conflicting language in the state Constitution. There's currently a provision that says eligible citizens are entitled to vote if they've been residents for at least 30 days. But a different provision requires citizens to live in Washington for 60 days before voting for president.
The amendment would eliminate the conflict and say eligible citizens can vote if they've lived in Washington, and in their county and precinct, for at least 30 days before the election.

I am darn proud to be one! Assembled my Madone on Friday then did a couple of 42 milers over the weekend. 84 trouble free, smooth riding, smooth shifting, no creaking, no ticking, nothing but great sailing miles.
Building my own bikes and wheels is the best thing I've done when it comes to my hobby. Nothing does a bike better than a little owner TLC. The new Madone is top notch quality, including the wheels. I know because I built them too!
Funny thing. Another rider and I were talking at our usual rest spot at the coast (I won't mention names). Asking if I had assembled the bike myself we started chatting. He then said if I ever needed any assistance I should look up his mechanic. I had heard the guy's name before. Supposedly a nice guy. Shop owner and rider.
So we chat on but then rider X says he has had a ticking noise in his headset/stem area. He's had it back at the shop 4 times and the mechanics cannot figure out what is causing the noise. Keep in mind, this is a nice high end road bike. I tell the guy I once had a creak after paying a shop to do a component swap. I disassembled the headset/stem area and noticed the shop installed everything dry, including the face plate bolts. At that time I realized the shop installed everything dry so I ended up going over the entire bike and lubing every bolt myself, but that's another story.
So I look at the guy's stem bolts out of curiosity, maybe I could see lube around the base of the head. A quick glance and WTF! The guy has a 4 bolt face plate set up. But the lower side is cranked down all the way, nearly making contact with the stem and the top side there is a huge gap. Now everybody knows that the stem faceplate is supposed to be evenly spaced and even torque. Holy smokes, this was the worst set up I've ever seen on another rider's bike.
Ok, back to the shop 4 times, every mechanic in the house has looked at the stem and can't figure it out the noise. Ok cool, but one of them should have at least noticed the crappy installation of the faceplate. If anything the last guy should have set it evenly. I've heard of stem bolts breaking and I myself would hate to do a faceplant because a great mechanic was too lazy to set the darn thing right.
Ok, so I had to break the guy's heart and point it out. I told him I'd take it back and demand that they set it correctly. He said, "I hate that you pointed it out cause now I have to worry about it and my mechanic but it's better than getting seriously injured". Hey, I could have just turned a blind eye but you don't let a buddy take a faceplant. Who knows, maybe it will fix the annoying tick he's had all along, figuring the pro's have been avoiding it from the start.
Hi, I'm Mr. Beanz and I'm an armchair mechanic but you won't find that carp on my bikes.
FTR, I've helped a ton of riders with roadside repairs and adjustments. But you can bet they didn't complain when they rode off with a smile and a smooth running bike.
My bike ran smooth and you won't find that kind of carp on my bikes. Not to say there aren't some good mechanics out there. I've met a couple. But the armchair DIY with TLC has worked best for me and my money.
Niiiiice running bike!
Good example of some armchair appreciation. This guy in red showed up at the rest stop last April with a big mess of a rear derailleur. I saw them messing with the bike but figured they knew what they were doing. Later he walked up and asked if any of use knew anything about the issue. In other words, were any of us armchair mechanics? They had twisted each and every screw every which way but loose. I took about 4 minutes to adjust it, including the limit screws and a qucik course on how to make the adjustments. Why is he smiling? He said his bike had never shifted that well.
Some people appreciate us armchair types ha ha! Give it a try!

Wow, what a century! First, I'm really lucky to have some awesome ride partners. Oliver, Cory and I met up at 5:30am and began our ride South. We were initially pretty leery of the wind, as it was coming out of the north from 15-25mph - awesome for the ride down, daunting for the ride home. With that in mind, the pace out was rather conservative. In fact, sheer irony, our pace out was the slowest portion of the trip - even though we had a nice tailwind and a relatively flat rail bed to ride on! Also daunting on the way out, nearing Cortland we saw some storms moving in from the west. A MTB racer who Oliver and Cory work with called around 6:30am to heckle us about the storms, and mentioned something about guys on steel bikes. I laughed, then looked at the two Scandium bikes that they were riding and realzed the joke... .
We made great time to Cortland, right as the rain started, so we opted to take a nice break at mile 25 to refuel. Here's my riding companions, and the steeds they chose for the trip:
Oliver chose to ride his race MTB, a Salsa Mamasita (Scandium/Carbon) frame with a slew of parts that would make any MTBr drool, with the substitution of his Brooks B17 for this ride. Oliver has quite a few very sexy rides, but as I told him, the Mamsita is my personal favorite. Cory's ride is equally very awesome, a Kona Kula 2-9 frame (Scandium) mated with a slew of drool worthy parts (XT, Thomson, you name it) - and is his only bike. As he said, he got 10,000 miles out of his $400 Rocky Mountain, might as well go for a nice ride! He commutes something like 30 miles a day 3-4 days/week on the Kona. NICE ride, I really dig how it's setup. Me? Of course I rode my LHT
First disaster struck around mile 30, between Cortland and Beatrice. I heard a "SPRRRONNNG" and realized immediately that a spoke had decided to leave me. Sure enough, one busted spoke. I had thoughts of quitting, but realized I was in this thing to finish. "Screw it, I have 35 spokes left, I won't worry until I break 3 or 4 more" I yelled over the noise of the highway. So I tightened the spokes around it, brought the wheel amazingly into true, and we were on our way.
We made good time to Beatrice, then set off in search of food. The first place we were sent, a local cafe, had no inside bike parking and no bike parking within sight of the windows. Seeing that we were riding a small fortune, we chose to move on. Beatrice is a smaller town, not terribly small, but ironically devoid of any local eateries. We gave up and went to the golden arches, where I purchased pancakes, egg-like-things, a biscuit, and a cup of coffee. Wow, that was the ticket! Likely it was the 48 miles under our belt, but it REALLY hit the proverbial spot.
Just about to leave.. we see a downpour. Second disaster strikes as I was trying to move through the small space between the bikes and the edge of the downpour to throw the cover on my brooks. I knocked over the Mamasita - pretty badly, in fact. The owner, obviously, was not happy and rightfully so. Tensions were also high due to the thunderstorm, so we called around and found out that if we left RIGHT THEN we would get some rain, but could probably avoid the bulk of it.
Fast riding on the way out of town, very fast. We made Cortland in record time, averaging 17.8mph on the 17.17 mile hilly highway trip there. We eventually did it "roadie style" and took turns pulling, which was the way to do it. We rode REALLY strong, fueled by pancakes, maple syrup, coffee and a desire to avoid getting rained on. Another stop in Cortland for some Fairbury Brand hot dogs and water later, everyone was feeling really good. We had knocked off a metric century, and everyone's legs wanted MORE and they wanted it NOW.
We REALLY kicked in the speed from Cortland to town, averaging 16.8mph combined highway and in-town riding - around 30 miles. Estimates of the highway speed being right around the 20mph mark are probably spot on, as we slowed it a bit in the city for a couple reasons. The primary one being the third piece of bad luck.
Oliver decided to "take off" on a hill that leads to the Rock Island trail through Dinsmore park. Well as he's sprinting I say to Cory "there he goes again.." no sooner than we see his bike violently swerve, and he's on the ground dragging across the pavement! Heart rates shot through the roof and we caught up to him, finding him trying to unclip and get up off the trail. His rear quick-release came free and his rear wheel moved forward, smacking into the stays and stopping motion, which ended in him dragging 15 feet down the trail. The bike looked like this:
And his arm looked, well, pretty dang raw. Aside from that and being, understandably pretty shaken up, he felt fine. We straightened the bars and did a mechanical check, finding that the rear der cable was pretty much a goner. He found a good gear ratio and "Single speeded it" downtown to the LBS for repairs. And no, it didn't stop him from further sprints .
After his LBS repairs, we headed off to my favorite LBS to get the spoke fixed. Both the wrench and I are optimistic that it was just a weak spoke, as this build has lasted about 800 hard miles, and the roadside repair held up beautifully for around 60 miles. That in mind, he cut a new spoke, replaced it, then spent a good 20 minutes tensioning and truing my wheel. I give a huge to Cycle Works, as they really are a awesome shop. We both agreed that if it pops another spoke I'm going with a new Salsa Delgado rim, and some DT Alpine III's.
At that point I also slugged a Monster Energy drink, two granola bars and two fig newtons, then we were on our way to build some miles in town. We headed out to the Mopac trailhead and saw the 93 mile mark pass, then back into town. At that point I definitely had slowed way down, I could have easily rode more miles, just not any speed. No sprints or hill attacks were left in my legs, just a good spin home. Cory departed us at the UNL campus, his century in the bag, and mine a mere 3 miles away. I told Oliver I imagined it would come at the "Sheridan bridge" on my favorite trail, so we headed that direction.
Sure enough, about 200 feet from the bridge, he called it! I was pretty dang happy and felt pretty dang good. Parted company with him and headed the 2 miles to my house. Showered, posted to BF, then collapsed into bed for a nice hour long nap .
All in all we averaged 15.1mph moving speed for the century, danged impressive for a fat guy on a touring bike and two guys on 29er MTBs! We rode really strong, and right now I still feel really good. I was pretty nervous going into today, to be honest, as my goal to ride the Dirty Kanza 200 next year would basically be shot if I couldn't complete a century in decent time this year. Rather, now I feel more confident than ever, Oliver said that during the DK they averaged around 11-12mph, opting to use the "spin to win" philosophy for the group of riders he hooked up with. When I got home I easily had another 25 miles in me, and probably even 50 if I pushed it. With a year left to train I'm fully confident that 200 miles on gravel is just waiting for me to destroy it.
Great ride, great companions, and a great day. Three years ago I was still over 500 pounds, now I'm riding centuries with an average speed of 15mph. I don't want to be an inspiration, I just hope that my example proves that YOU can DO IT. Don't stop riding.
(also, credit goes to The Historian, after the break of my spoke I had to think of several things to keep me going, after my children and wife all I could think about was the guy who rode 90 miles on a busted rib. That's when I knew that even if I had to walk it, was finishing the century today!)

F10 / F11 (2011 - Current)
The new chapter in the highly successful story of the BMW 5 Series Sedan (F10) and wagon (F11)
|Thread Tools
|Display Modes
Imagine your 535i sweet inline 6 turbo.....
....bored out to 4 liter displacement and gaining a similar percentage increase in power and torque in stock form.....wouldn't be nice??
Well such car exists but only Australians (for just a little longer) can buy it....it is the Ford Falcon 4.0 Turbo (depending on trim called XR6 Turbo G6E Turbo and F6 310)
Producing up to 420 HP and about 417 ft/lb in stock form, the Ford Barra inline 6 turbo is the biggest and most powerful straight 6 in the world...and no, it is not a push rod design , its is a DOHC 24 valves all alluminum with variable timing on both intake and exhaust and variable lift.
The car is coupled with a ZF 6 speed automatic transmission.
The true believers can still get a Falcon with a V8.
...and no is not a FWD platform..........a proper RWD sedan with double pivot frost struts (the new 2015 Mustang borrowed this front suspension) and control blade independent rear suspension (so no live axle at the back!) very light for its size.
The Falcon was featured by Car And Driver in more than one article years ago and labeled as the "car that could save Ford"..I would say it could save Lincoln...
Ford Australia has tried several times to convince the higher ups in Detroit to bring the Falcon in US (at least its platform architecture).....no chance, actually Ford US tried years ago to introduce the Taurus in Australia against the advice of Ford Australia management and that was a disaster, Australians refused to buy it.
With no feasible large enough export markets (you can buy a Falcon in New Zealand, few Asian countries and South Africa) and with the North American doors shut, given the recent increase in preferences towards SUV away from sedans, the Falcon could not survive on such small numbers and the chopping block was inevitable...plans for a new generation were shelved (the current platform FG was introduced in early 2008) and production will shut down in 2016....the Aussies will get their Taurus after all
The Ford Falcon is a large sedan as big as an F10 obviously not even close with the same level of fit, finish and options (totally different price points) but has always been a hoot to drive and I had the chance several times to take a XR6 turbo for a spin (I often visit Australia)
It is interesting to mention that something similar happened to GM.....for years Holden (the GM Australian division) tried to convince the US management to bring the formidable Commodore in the US to no avail....finally in Detroit they woke up and after a first half assed attempt (remember the Cadillac Catera?) they brought stateside the Australian chassis engineers and from the Commodore underpinnings developed the Alpha platform (ATS and CTS) which effectively saved Cadillac...the Commodore original platform (what did become the Zeta platform) is what underpins the very successful new Camaro.
The unmodified Commodore arrived too late to save Pontiac..despite the brand such damaged reputation, the G8 was a big sales success. The Australian Commodore is now imported as the Chevrolet SS.
The new GM high tech DOHC V6 was developed by Holden Australia as well.
However, after effectively saving Cadillac (and boosting Chevrolet sales) the Commodore production in Australia will be shut down as well one year after the Falcon.
So yes....for decades Australians were driving locally produced (from US owned corporations) very good RWD cars where Americans were saddled with boxy and plastic clad uninspiring front drivers....

The inline 6 in the new M3/4 puts out 431HP and 405 lbs of torque from 3 litres. Maybe Ford should stick that in a Falcon? I think they'd do well if the Focus RS lands on North American shores, as is the rumour. 300hp and AWD in that little thing would be fun.
Ford desperately needs to do something for Lincoln, and I think offering a Lincoln-only performance luxury sedan is that thing. Not a car that is plainly a Fusion with extra body cladding - something like the ATS or CTS, which are unavailable elsewhere in GM's lineups.
This platform, done the right way, could be a great idea for a Lincoln flagship car. If they aren't thinking that way, they're asleep over there.

However it is kind of lost talk, The Falcon and the 6 inline Barra engine will be dropped in 2016.
Had a Falcon as a rental car when I visited Sydney a few years back. It wasn't a high performance turbocharged model, but it did have a big Inline 6 with a ZF Transmission. Far nicer to drive than the Crown Vics the rental companies were handing out in the US at the time.
Sorry to hear they're going away instead of being modernized and expanded to the rest of the world. Are the "utes" going away also, or are they living on? I fell in love with the high performance Ford and Holden "pickup cars" down under - a modern take on the El Camino with great performance.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has issued warnings regarding a virus that is spreading through mosquito bites, and now the World Health Organization (WHO) is declaring it an international health emergency.
Known as Zika, this virus has been reported primarily in Central and South America, as well as parts of the Caribbean. Because many of these locations are popular vacation destinations, there's concern for travelers bringing the virus back to the United States.

Imagine you're working in your kitchen in the middle of a rush, and your hostess walks in the kitchen to tell you the health inspector is here. You think to yourself, "but it's right in the middle of the rush!" This is the part where you might want to panic, but don't.
Health inspections occur 2-4 times a year and they are most often unannounced. The health inspector wants to see how well you and your staff adhere to safety requirements when the pressure is on. And the best time to see that is during a busy rush. But don't worry. Simply follow these tips to keep you calm during your restaurant health inspection.
During the Inspection
Greet the Inspector with a Smile
The health inspector is your ally in the fight against foodborne illnesses. Greeting your inspector. Then be calm and communicative as this allows you to work together to provide a healthy dining experience.
Always Accept an Inspection, Never Refuse One
Refusing an inspection leads to the suspicion that you have something to hide. All the inspector will do is come back with an inspection warrant. Then you cab bet that he will note every infraction, no matter how minor. This kind of unnecessary stress is not what you want.
Do Not Offer Food or Drink
This can be seen as a bribe and you are not Al Capone. Plus, the health inspector is a professional just like you are and it is important to maintain that kind of relationship.
Go with the Inspector
Accompanying the inspector shows that you're interested in food safety and allows you to know the what and why of a violation. Also, inspectors will point out good habits along with the bad. Rather than just receiving a list of the bad, take credit for what you're doing well.
Take Good Notes
Taking notes shows the health inspector that you're interested in what they're saying. It also gives you a good reference point to go back to once the inspection is over.
Ask Questions
Don't hesitate to ask questions, especially if you need clarification about why something is a violation. Your health inspector will be happy to explain as well as give you solutions to the issue. Be respectful when you ask questions. Your health inspector is the wrong person to cop an attitude with.
Remember, It's Not Personal
Nobody is perfect and mistakes happen. Rather than dwelling on every violation the inspector finds, correct the mistakes and strive for a better inspection the next time around.
Fix Critical Violations Immediately
Critical violations are those directly related to foodborne illnesses. If they are not corrected immediately your customers can become sick. Bacteria doesn't wait for the health inspector to leave.
For violations that cannot be corrected right then and there, set a time frame for correction; the inspector will most likely perform a follow-up inspection for critical violations that require more time for correction.
Know the Facts
Inspectors often quiz managers and employees alike to gauge their knowledge of food safety and prep processes. All owners and managers must have up-to-date training. In some counties, lack of food safety knowledge is a critical violation and can shut down a restaurant. Don't be that guy.
Have All Records Available
The inspector will ask for all of your records regarding food safety management. These can include temperature check records, receiving logs and employee illnesses. Also, the inspector will ask to see your operators permit to make sure it is current.
The Health Inspector DOES Want You to Succeed
Part of a health inspector's job is education. If your facility is lacking in a specific area of safe food handling, arrange a date and time for the inspector to come back and give your employees a food safety lesson. This will help assure that your customers and employees have a healthy, enjoyable experience in your restaurant.

A: Leaving her behind after a stop.
On our first ride of 'spring' last weekend, I slowed and stopped where the rail grade trail we were on crossed a road.
Seeing that the way was clear, I announced "Three, two, one, we're off!" and pedaled across the road. "Wow," I thought, "She's so smooth, and it's our first ride of the year. This is going to be a great season." The bike accelerated especially well and I was very impressed with the apparently effortless power from behind.
After about a quarter of a mile, I looked back to be sure that the other rider with us was on our wheel. I got a very clear view of Carl about a hundred yards back, pedaling for all he was worth to catch up and yelling, "I think you forgot something."
Somehow I did not notice when my stoker slipped off the bike to walk over and press the walk button for the cross walk. Fortunately, upon my hasty return, she was laughing pretty hard. I had no idea it was even possible to ride off without noticing one was solo...
You learn something every day I guess.

Break-Ins Show Crime Has Still Not Been Cracked
Worrall, Boris, The Birmingham Post (England)
Birmingham is the second worst place in the country for smash and grab car crime - topped only by Manchester.
The northern city has the most vehicle attacks for any area outside the Greater London region bounded by the M25.
Birmingham and the Newcastle and Gateshead area of north-east England are the next worst car crime blackspots, says research from car window company Autoglass.
The survey results come as national figures for crime were due to be published today with an increase of up to 20 per cent predicted for forces across the region.
The Autoglass table is based on the number of cars that need windows replaced as a result of crime.
Tipton in the Black Country also came in the top 20 nationally in 14th place.
But Mr Ian Carlisle, managing director of Autoglass, said: "Our latest study found that fewer than three quarters of our customers who have been victims of car crime report the incident to the police."
The survey was carried out as part of a joint campaign to raise awareness of car crime and improve methods of prevention and detection. It brings together the police, Home Office, and the insurance industry.
The Cracking Car Crime initiative was launched after the Government set targets to cut the level of auto crime by 30 per cent within five years.
Meanwhile, figures to be published by the Home Office today are expected to show recorded crime has risen by 20 per cent after five years of successive falls. …

As director Eifman makes his audiences not just appreciate the beauty of the 'dance fabric' of his performances, but empathize the scenic action. The company distinguished by the particular dance intellect, brilliant technique and gift for the transformation fascinates the western audience.
Having choreographed over forty ballets Boris Eifman defines the genre in which he works as 'psychological ballet.' By using the language of dance he speaks sincerely with his audiences about the most complex and exciting aspects of human existence such as the quest for the meaning of life, the collision of the spiritual and physical in the private human world, and the cognition of the truth.
Boris Eifman's new ballet, Rodin, is dedicated to the life and creative work of the great sculptor Auguste Rodin and his apprentice, lover and muse, Camille Claudel. The drama of their passionate relationship is told through their work as one creative body to their breakup which dealt a deathblow to Camille's mental health and marked the beginning of her destruction. Rodin is a massive artistic utterance about the tragic nature of the lives of geniuses.

Skip to comments.7 signs you love your dog more than your spouse
Posted on 04/01/2014 7:36:55 AM PDT by Sir Napsalot
You really can't compare the love you have for a spouse or significant other to your love of a dog the two are very different. But it can be easy to get in the habit of showering your adorable canine with love and attention. Dogs actively seek and expect affection, while a loved one may not. This might sometimes leave your partner with a sense that you love the family pet more than you love him. Before you jump into marriage counseling, take a look at our list to see if you truly do love your dog more than your spouse.
1. You greet your dog first when you come home.
You walk through the door after a long day or a trip away and shower your pup with hugs and kisses but don't give the same treatment to your significant other. While your spouse might not need or want immediate cuddle time, be sure he knows you missed him just as much.
You also need to beware of causing behavior issues when greeting your dog. Trainer Mikkel Becker advises that you shouldn't turn your hellos and goodbyes into emotional scenes because they can be distressing for your pooch. This practice can exacerbate separation anxiety and increase your dog's distress at being left alone.
2. You shower your dog with compliments.
You tell him multiple times a day what a handsome boy he is, but you rarely bother to tell your husband he looks great in that suit or fantastic in that new shirt. Men appreciate compliments, too!
3. You constantly post pictures of your dog online.
(Excerpt) Read more at living.msn.com ...
On the flip side, I never have to shovel up the wife's poo.
Can't post the whole article. Read the rest at link.
Oh you likely do that, just not in a literal sense.
Or give her a flea bath.
All I have is a dog ^^
Do not even want a spouse.
7. You set aside a trust fund in your estate for your dog, but divorce your wife.
Put your wife and dog in the trunk. Take them for a ride.
Who's happy to see you when you open the trunk?
True enough... for now.
LOL. I've known some guys that practically had to eat it.
Might be because the dog is the only one that greets me when I get home. The wife is parked on the couch with her face stuck to an electronic device.
The only other one to greet me is the cat, but it just wants food.
The dog dragged me into a wall and cost me 13 stitches.
Honestly the wife has never done anything like that.
Some chef once said that her favorite animal is Lamb because it's cute on the hoof and delicious on the plate.
It sorta touches on how I feel about my dog. He's really great and it took me a LONG time to warm up to him. He's like another person in the family. But he is a dog. He is not human, and he is not made in God's image.
I understand that what I interpret as human thoughts of endearment on his part is really just him wondering if I have another Beggin' Strip. But it is fun to imagine otherwise.
Give her time, giver her time...
Such is the existence of the domesticated male.
In order to prove that dogs deserve every bit of love and attention that they get, try this simple test:
1. Lock both your dog and your spouse in the trunk of your car on a midsummer morning.
2. Park the car in a War-Mart or other large asphalt-paved parking lot.
3. Come back in the afternoon, after the heat of the summer day has dissipated.
4. Open the trunk and let them out.
5. Which one is happy to see you?
Domesticated = Graduate of PW 101
You lucky dog.
Reminds me of something a friend of mine told me once.
It was something along the lines of I did my wife real good, and she gave me permission to go buy a new 60" TV...

l2. Beer doesn't get upset when you come home and decide to have another beer.
13. Beer never threatens to go to a lawyer.

21. Beers never require expensive permanent and hair tints.
22. Beer is always wet.
23. If you change beers, you don't have to pay alimony.

33. You can have a beer in public.
34. You can see through a beer and you know what you are getting.
35. When your beer gets upset, it settles down.
36. Beer is subject to quality control and doesn't argue about it.
37. Beer doesn't talk back to you and ask a lot of silly questions.
38. Beer doesn't ask you to take a lie detector test about when you had the
last one.
39. Beer doesn't have a Mother that goes with it.
40. If you drop a beer, there is no doctor bill.
41. Beer doesn't have anniversaries for you to forget.
42. Beer doesn't demand that you take it dancing before you can have it.
43. Beer doesn't have relatives that stop by and stay for weeks.
44. When you buy a beer, you own it.
45. Beer never cries or gets jealous.
Every dog I've ever owned though has always been first to greet me at the door.
"Jerry" (a German Shepherd/Golden Retriever ix) would push the kids out of the way and wriggle his way to being first to greet me at the door when our kids were small. It was kinda funny. He'd watch for me out the front window then run to the door that opens to the garage as soon as he saw my truck pull into the driveway.
Jerry passed some 8 years ago now, and now we have Teddy, a black Labradoodle. With no prompting or training whatsoever, Teddy does the exact same thing. Most of the time he's not even at the front window, he hears my truck coming down the street and runs for the door to the garage to greet me when I walk in.
So I admit to that one. The rest, nuh uh.
Re: 5. Beer never has a headache.
Some Beer (who shall remain nameless) always GIVES me a headache.
Not yet....
My dogs never ran up three credit cards behind my back, with one of them being in my name without my knowledge. Doesn't matter now anyway......my two fur babies are my best friends and worth coming home to.
Something about being three feet tall with a flat heat (where you can "set your beer," if I remember correctly) and teeth that fold back when you put a quarter in their ear.
My daughter wanted to ride in the trunk of the new Toyota. Put her in and drove a couple of blocks. She was happy to get out although she enjoyed the ride.
When you and the wife walk together, does one of you wear a harness? Probably explains why it didn't happen.
It's called patterning. I helped a friend do it when their VERY retarded son was born. We moved his arms and legs to get his brain used to patterns. It was a lot of work but it worked. Shockingly well, actually.
I believe my dogs, like people, are creatures of habit. It's why a person that has lived with the same person for decades can be very saddened, even if they didn't really like the person (or the person was abusive). And I do believe my dog has affection for me, btw. Just not at the human level. It's brain is just not that complex, though he can fake it sometimes.
She's leash trained?
My Golden Retriever is the first to greet me when I come through the door.
I recently noticed him laying by the window, chin resting on ledge, apparently deep in thought. I can only conclude that he was thinking, " what if I never find out who's a good dog?"
You've convinced me.
The next dog I get will be named "Beer".
After my wife passed it was hard to find someone as faithful as she was. My current dog fits the bill unlike the majority of single older women in NE Mississippi.
I dont have a dog or a spouse (I used to have both).
I desire neither and have the freedom to live all over the world now and love every second of it.
The Who
I'M FREE- I'm free,
And freedom tastes of reality,
I'm free-I'm free,
AN' I'm waiting for you to follow me.
If I told you what it takes
to reach the highest high,
You'd laugh and say 'nothing's that simple'
But you've been told many times before
Messiahs pointed to the door
And no one had the guts to leave the temple!
I'm free-I'm free
And freedom tastes of reality
I'm free-I'm free
And I'm waiting for you to follow me.
How can we follow?
How can we follow?
Bump for later....
The dog needs to read this.... : ^ )
I have come to realize she thinks I am her pet....
Only if you're connected to it, by a lead, or a thumb.
Yeah, man, there really is something to be said about being able to come and go as we please.
Now, I now I can go without a dog, but I just don't want to. Too much joy to be had there.
A wife on the other hand...pass.
It just isn't for me, I'm a lone wolf and always have been.
I had my fill when I was younger, and it was WAY MORE TROUBLE that it was worth, so I walked away and never went back.
I don't see it changing, I'm too used to it this way now.
Your dogs collar is nicer than your wife's necklace.
You sleep in the dog house.
You bark more than you talk.
I had both also. Still have the dog.
My little Maltese mix is 10.For a long time now he starts waiting at the slider that has a view to the driveway entrance about a half hour before hubby gets home. When I first noticed it, I remember thinking - is this dog psychic or what? It took me awhile to realize that hubby calls me when he leaves work to see if I need him to pick up anything. The dog must know who I am talking with and that's when he starts his vigil. He's a smart little dog.

LOL I like this.
(Obligatory reminder/ prayer to the choir) Never leave pooches unattended in a car. Not just because it's too hot, but too many lowlifes are stealing cars with dogs inside these days. (Sorry. It's reflex)

Website Filtering
Content Filtering
Four Types of Word Matching – Example using the word can:
False Blocking – You can eliminate false blocking by setting rules for words that have more than one context
Content-filtering categories include: bad foreign language words, chat words, drug advocacy words, gambling words, game words, gore words, illegal drugs, intolerance words, legal drugs words, peer-to-peer file sharing, personal words, pornography words, positive words, proxy words, violence words, warez and hacking words, weapons words, webmail words, and your own custom list. Note: All words in these categories can be viewed and/or edited by SecureSchool administrators.
Weight Threshold – When web pages are searched, weight values (as defined in Rules) are added together for a given page and that page is given a total weight. If it exceeds the Weight Threshold (which can be viewed and edited by SecureSchool administrators), the page is blocked. See above – may need to clarify (added up)
File-Extension Blocking – Block by file extension from our list of 60+ file extensions. For instance you can block all JPG files (of course, there would leave little to see on the Internet!). More usefully, you could block executable file extensions to prevent students from downloading viruses and restrict to tech staff, faculty, and whitelisted sites.
URL Filtering – Block websites by words contained in the URL, including prefixes and suffixes.
Categories include: advertising words, pornography words, pornography search words, proxy words, search control words and your own custom list. Note: All words in these categories can be viewed and/or edited by SecureSchool administrators.
