WASHINGTON (AP) -- The U.S. unemployment rate has plunged since the start of last year to a five-year low of 6.1 percent. And the July jobs report being released Friday will likely show a sixth straight month of healthy 200,000-plus gains.

 Yet for Douglas Hunter and millions like him, happy days aren't quite here again.

 Hunter earned $14 an hour cleaning oil drums before the Great Recession seized the economy and his job was axed. At 53, Hunter now works three days a week for $9.25 an hour, mopping floors and fixing fryers at two McDonald's restaurants in Chicago.

 "If the economy is getting better, I'm not sure for whom," he said. "It certainly hasn't trickled down to me."

 The Gallup Organization has found that consumers' view of the economy is the glummest it's been in seven months.

 As the economic recovery enters its sixth year, a number of factors help explain why many Americans don't feel better off: Income hasn't rebounded. Millions are working part time even though they want full-time jobs. It's taking longer to find work. People are still struggling with mortgage debt. Some feel down about the economy because of their political views. And most people don't feel free to spend as much as they used to.

 A closer look at the factors:

 LAGGING INCOME

 Most people are still earning less, adjusted for inflation, than before the recession struck at the end of 2007. Even many who kept their jobs through the recession - or easily found work after being let go - are no better off. The typical family income in current dollars is $52,959, according to Sentier Research. Factoring in inflation, that's $3,303 less than before the recession - a nearly 6 percent drop.

 A review by Wells Fargo found that after-tax income fell for the bottom 20 percent of earners and barely rose for the next-highest 20 percent during the recovery.

 "Wages are just not keeping up," said Christine Owens, executive director of the National Employment Law Project. "We don't have an economy that is as robust as we need it to be."

 FEWER FULL-TIME JOBS

 Finding a steady full-time job has become harder. There are 27.4 million part-time jobs, representing 18.8 percent of jobs in the U.S. economy, according to the Labor Department. Before the recession, 16.5 percent of all jobs were part time.

 Some of this increase is due to the still-sluggish recovery: Employers want to cut costs and payrolls by limiting their workers to fewer than 35 hours a week. But the trend might also reflect a lasting shift among restaurants and coffee shops, said John Silvia, chief economist at Wells Fargo.

 "A lot of companies have figured out that they didn't need employees to sell coffee between 2 and 4 p.m. that nobody is buying," Silvia said.

 EMPLOYERS SLOW TO HIRE

 The "Help Wanted" signs are out: There were 4.6 million available jobs in May, according to government data, the most in seven years and 20 percent more than a year ago. Yet not enough of those jobs are being filled.

 Steven Davis, an economist at the University of Chicago, and two colleagues calculated that it took an average of more than 25 days for employers to fill a vacant job in May. That was up from an average of 22.5 days last year and is the longest such figure in the 13 years that the data has been tracked.

 That suggests a mismatch in the job market: The unemployed might not have the skills companies want for the available jobs. Or businesses might not be offering enough pay or trying hard enough to fill the jobs.

 BEHIND ON MORTGAGES

 Whatever wealth most Americans have is mainly tied up in their homes. But roughly seven years after the housing bust, owning a home has still been a bad investment for many.

 Nearly 37 percent of mortgage holders were "effectively underwater" through the first three months of 2014, according to the real estate firm Zillow. That means they either owe more than their homes are worth or a sale wouldn't generate enough money to cover the closing costs and down payment for a new home.

 Zillow estimates that average home prices nationally won't regain their peak until 2017. For the Baltimore area, it could take until 2024. For Chicago and Kansas City, 2026. Minnesota's Twin Cities aren't expected to fully recover until 2028, more than two decades after the housing bust struck.

 POLITICALLY SHAPED VIEWS

 How people feel about President Barack Obama appears to influence their views of the economy. Republicans are overwhelmingly pessimistic, Democrats optimistic, according to Gallup.

 Just 39 percent of everyone surveyed in June said the economy was improving; 56 percent described it as getting worse. The consumer confidence reading for existing conditions was negative 14 despite progress in hiring, auto sales and home buying.

 Partisan affiliation is a factor. The confidence index for Democrats was 11, roughly the same as at the start of the year. Republicans? Their confidence was negative 38, reflecting how they think the health care law and Obama's executive actions will affect the economy.

 CAUTIOUS SHOPPING

 Most Americans are still being careful at cash registers and online checkouts. Consumer spending has risen at an average annual pace of just 2.2 percent since the recession ended in mid-2009. That's far below the 3.4 percent average in the two decades preceding the recession.

 Americans are buying more cars. But that's forced them to cut back in other areas, such as clothing and electronics. The CEO of The Container Store has said the chain's sales and profits have suffered because consumers are in "a retail funk." That's hardly a surprise considering the weak pay growth and lingering anxiety after the gravest economic meltdown since the 1930s.

 Confidence in the economy is still relatively low, suggesting that people are buying what they need instead of what they want. The Conference Board's consumer confidence index was 85.2 in June. In the 20 years preceding the downturn, it averaged nearly 102.

 The trauma of the Great Recession made people more guarded and less likely to splurge as they did during past recoveries.

 "We're still carrying some psychological baggage," said Jack Kleinhenz, chief economist at the National Retail Federation.

Riley addressed some of the media Tuesday, to answer questions about his team heading into fall camp, which starts Aug. 9.
For starters, there is the potential return of senior linebacker, Keith Pankey.
Pankey, who suffered a ruptured Achilles back in February, is on schedule and could start practicing during fall camp.
Is it likely Pankey could work through fall camp and start against TCU?
"I think that's real. He could be our starter in the first game," said Riley.
RILEY ALSO SAID senior linebacker Keo Camat and 'Unga brothers – sophomores Devin and Kevin -- would be battling for the starting position at the strongside 'backer if Pankey can't go.
However, Riley is hoping for a veteran combination consisting of Pankey and WIL Dwight Roberson at those two outside spots.
"Pankey and Roberson is much more comforting," said Riley.
RILEY ALSO SAID Burke Ellis and Colin Kelly are battling for the starting right guard spot. That figures to be the one starting position on the o-line truly yet to be settled.
The offseason talk about possibly moving Michael Philipp inside to guard and Wilder McAndrews to tackle was just that, with Philipp to hold down his customary left tackle spot when fall camp opens.
MEANWHILE, RILEY said both Fred Thompson and Donnell Welch of the 2010 recruiting class were not eligible, but things could change by Monday, pending their summer school results.
As far as other incoming players for OSU, Riley confirmed that three players are being grayshirted -- Trevor Romaine, Terron Ward and Will Storey.
Riley didn't address it but The Gazette Times is reporting Thomas Molesi is also working on academics, and his status is not final. "However, reading between the lines it's not good," writes Cliff Kilpatrick.
On an up note, Riley said that sophomore walk-on running back Jordan Jenkins was officially awarded a scholarship for fall term, and Riley say's that he is competing nicely for the back-up position behind Jacquizz Rodgers.
DEPTH IS SOMETHING Riley mentioned over and over, and specifically noted the need to find depth at the defensive end position this fall camp.
Gabe Miller and Taylor Henry were two cited by Riley as showing solid speed and pass rush ability during spring practice. The tandem is expected to start but Riley wasn't naming official starters on Tuesday.
HEADING INTO A hotly anticipated season at Oregon State, Riley said he was pleased with the team-wide commitment towards getting better. There were a record number of players that chose to stay in Corvallis and participate in the summer conditioning program.
"I think they were working with 84 guys." Said Riley.
IN ADDITION TO the voluntary player participation, OSU's proclivity of late for starting a season out slowly was the topic of conversation for Riley this offseason.
Asked if there were going to be any changes to fall camp to help prepare his team more and prevent those 2-3 and 3-2 type starts to the season, Riley answered in the affirmative.
"Scrimmaging. We'll scrimmage a lot more," he said.
With much riding on the 2010 campaign, and having the bar set as high as it is for the Beavers, Riley appeared calm as ever heading into a very important camp. With talk that the 2010 vintage could be a "special team" was brought up, Riley shrugged it off.
"Well, you're talking to a very conservative person. I am glad though that they feel confident. I'm going to wait and see how the first practice goes, that's as far as I'll go," said Riley.

Grovetown, GA – With near record heat still in the forecast, having that place where you can get out of the sun and cool off is critical. Fortunately, people are getting a little extra help with that in some counties across the CSRA.
Cooling centers are open across Richmond, Columbia, and Aiken counties. We visited one of these stations at the Columbia County Senior Center in Grovetown.
"We target three different areas of the population. Senior citizens, children, and those that suffer from chronic medical conditions." says Christie Lowe, a manager at the senior center. It's here where people can come in, relax, watch some TV, and have a cool drink.
"We have, on average, 20 to 30 seniors that come in every day for activities here. However, we will see that number increase just in general… being, of course, a population that is targeted by heat-related illnesses, but also just with this being a cooling station, we will see our numbers increase." says Lowe.
For those not at risk for heat-related illnesses, wearing light-colored clothing, and drinking plenty of water is all you need to beat the heat.

Additional Information
Note on LEAP:During routine partner monitoring, Kiva learned that LEAP's delinquency data may be understated due to technical problems with their reporting software. Because this report is key to our analysis of the risk of this partner, delinquency or default rates on loans to this partner may be higher than we expect. For further details, see LEAP's partner page on Kiva.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

In an effort to help prepare new BCM students for their first BCM Career Fair, Daphene Koch, associate professor of building construction management, and Dawn Lamb, student and industry outreach specialist, partnered to host a Mock Career Fair.
They conducted the event as part of the BCM 10001 (Introduction to Construction). More than half of the class is first-year students. Another 25 percent are students pursuing a BCM minor to complement their majors in interior design, computer graphics technology or mechanical engineering technology.
Thank you to the 114 companies that attended the Fall 2013 Building Construction Management Career Fair Sept. 27 in Mackey Arena. Over 500 students had the opportunity to interact with nearly 350 recruiters from the construction industry.

Concerns over the H1N1 virus are prompting changes for thousands of Catholics across the state, including Eastern Carolina.
The Catholic Diocese of Raleigh, which includes the east, is making some temporary changes to mass.
The Bishop has asked all churches to suspend the sign of peace, where parishioners shake hands with each other, and not to receive holy communion from the cup, which parishioners also share.
In addition, Priests and others who take part in mass are being reminded of the importance of washing their hands before and after mass.
The Bishop has asked that the changes be put into effect as soon as possible, but no later than October fourth.

x360a Review: Saints Row 2's Ultor Exposed DLC

For about the third time in as many years, it's time to step back on to the streets of Stilwater, and like the Saints Row 2 campaign, it's time to go toe-to-toe with the evil Ultor Corporation yet again. The Ultor Exposed downloadable content, now available on the Xbox Live Marketplace for 800 Microsoft Points, has a combination of single player, co-operative and multiplayer elements thrown in, hoping to entice players back into the title.
In the first of three planned DLC packs, you'll team up with microbiologist Tera Patrick (yes, the porn star) in order to uncover the sinister of actions of the Ultor Corp and bring these issues to the public's attention. Patrick, an ex-employee of Ultor, enlists your help to gather evidence of the wrongdoings of Ultor and get them on the national news. You'll partake in 3 missions which have a ton of variety in terms of what you'll be doing, but the major problem of this campaign add on is that you'll easily see them off within an hour and then that's that aspect done and dusted.
The Ultor Exposed content's co-operative element comes in the form of the "Co-Op Competitive" mode which is a nice distraction at best. The mode pits players against each other in a battle of the scoreboards. Still working as a team to complete the missions, players are rewarded with points for kills and the general mayhem they cause during the missions. This new mode does translate to non downloadable content as well which is nice, but it's little more than a gimmick as opposed to a new mode to applaud. If anything, you'll have most of your problems finding a game, so make sure you have a friend lined up if you want to test out this mode.
Other than the aforementioned gameplay elements, the content also throws in a few new vehicles to keep you amused, including and not limited to; the Stallion, an old 60's style racing car, the three-wheeled Pulse bike, the EDF Scout which is like a mini tank with controllable missiles, and the Vulture attack chopper, fully loaded with a powerful mini gun and homing rockets. In addition, players can take advantage of a whole array of new attire and hairstyles if they so wish to freshen their characters up.
The Ultor Exposed content also adds four new multiplayer maps to the online arena; two for Strong Arm (Downtown and Trailer Park) and two for Gangsta Brawl (Warehouse and Prison Cell). The problem with the new maps is that they fall down where the rest of the Saints Row 2 online does ... everywhere. You'll be stuck waiting even longer now to test the new maps because of the so few people with the content and you're still prone to quitters and unevenly matched matches in a generic and seemingly tacked on mode. After a short time online with the new maps, I can honestly say that I'll never use these maps ever again ... or in fact, the online mode full stop.
As far as the achievements go, they're pretty simple, 5 achievements in all, 125 points available. You simply get one achievement for doing the short campaign, one for calling Tera as a homie for back up, one for playing the co-op mission, one for winning 5 co-op missions, and one for hosting/playing in a party match on Live. Simple, easy and a distinct lack of innovation. Like the rest of the content in fact.
The value of the downloadable content is surely the pack's questionable aspect. Adding multiplayer maps to a pretty poor online mode won't please the vast majority of fans of the title that have no love for its multiplayer gangsta' stylings. Those that love Saints Row 2 for its wide open, co-op enabled world will ultimately come away disappointed having spent 800 points on what ultimately is a few extra vehicles and an hour's worth of gameplay. It hardly screams good value and is easily the shortest piece of "premium" downloadable content we've yet to experience. Volition have failed to play to the game's strengths and as a result, the downloadable content isn't even worth a second look. Save your money here and hope that the next two instalments are better value for money.

24: Whole 30 Journey
Monday, August 05, 2013
Worked from 4-9:30 today. It was okay but I had to condense product together to make more product fit into the space and relabel. No wonder why I never get things organized at home. haha.
I had bad cramps this morning and thought it was something I ate last night. Turned out to be AF showing up so the routine sort of went by the wayside today as I was curled up in bed with bad cramps.
I went for my massage and adjustment today. While I was checking in the receptionist said 'Enjoy your massage, Michelle!' and another lady that was checking in said 'Yeah, enjoy your massage, Michelle! You're so lucky!!' Ok. I know people are just trying to be nice and friendly but I so badly wanted to say 'how am I lucky if the reason I get massages is because a ladder fell on my head?!?' I know it's an innocent thing to say but still gets to me for whatever reason.
I was telling the chiropractor that I am having trouble sleeping because my arms and hands are going numb and then I wake up in more pain. She said it will get better in time. Oh really...it's been almost 4 months already!! Then got on the topic of people making ladder jokes (this week the jokes have been 2 for 2 at work) and how it bugs me. So her response was that she is going to come up with a good one for Wednesday when I see her again. Gah! I know, she is just trying to be funny, but dammit!!
Hubby ordered dinner for me tonight while I was out and picked some flowers. It was so sweet of him!
Well, tomorrow is my early day, so off to bed for me!!

Wow, sounds like you have to put up with a lot. How insensitive can some people be? And that comment about you being "so lucky"... Do they think you're just pampering yourself, getting a massage just for kicks? (there would be absolutely nothing wrong with that, of course, but the fact that you need to get it because of an injury... well let's just say that "lucky" is not the smartest choice of words).
My arms used to go numb during the night when I was asleep but that was only because I was sleeping on my side without noticing it. I modified my sleeping patterns and now I always sleep on my back. That helped me eliminate all numbness for good. But I assume in your case it might be due to the injury.
Sure hope things get better soon.

I'm sorry people have been insensitive to what you're going through.
Hang in there. I used to have issues with my hands and arms going numb too. It sucks. It's crazy that pinched nerves in your neck and shoulders can cause so many issues. Hope you get relief soon. Congratulations on your Whole30 progress!

I see where Superman's alter ego, Clark Kent, disgusted over the state of American journalism, has quit his job at The Daily Planet. Honest. It was in all the newspapers. The real ones, I mean.
Clark has joined the ranks of many of us who once worked for Great Metropolitan Fishwraps who left to find other careers in public relations, politics and other unsavory pursuits.
I, personally, went back to working on a farm. I figured that if I am going to spread manure, it might as well be the real kind.
Besides, I keep my hand in the newspaper business, a little. I just don't do it for Big Idiot-Run Newspaper Companies anymore.
I work with small papers that still practice good journalism as I knew it for most of my career, for which I am grateful.
OK, enough kissing up. Back to Clark.
I always thought he was kind of a drip. At least, that's how it looked when I started reading Superman adventures, in the Jurassic era. Comics were 12 cents then, (which left 13 cents out of your quarter to get a package of Hostess Cupcakes and still have a penny in your pocket for a gumball).
So, on the one hand, I guess it's kind of good to see the big Milquetoast standing up for something he believes in.
On the other hand, we should remember that Clark is … oh, how shall I say this? Ah, yes: fictional.
Also made up, not real, a figment of someone's imagination.
And as such, probably not worth the furor I have detected on the Weird Wide Web, which of course is the International Capitol of Furor.
No kidding, there are people out there who are up in arms over this. They're also frosted over the fact that Clark and Lois Lane are no longer married or even interested in each other.
And they're muttering darkly because there's a new Superman movie coming out in which the editor of The Daily Planet, traditionally a middle-aged white man, will be portrayed by Laurence Fishburne, a middle-aged black man.
Basically, where Superman is concerned, there seems a lot to be agitated about these days. Which leads us to a teachable moment:
Children, this is what happens when you spend all your time on your computers in your parents' basements.
Look, I like comic books. That kid with the holes in the knees of his jeans rummaging through the carousel rack at the drugstore back in 1962?
He's still here. He just wears better jeans nowadays when he stops in at the comic book shop to see what's new.
But sheesh, getting upset over who plays Perry White in the movies or whether Superman still works at a newspaper is like getting upset when Bugs Bunny pulls off his wig to reveal he's not really a girl.

You have a qualified lead. You can sense that your prospect is definitely going to make a purchase. What is the best way to convince your prospect to choose your company's solution over a competitor's?

If you have found yourself pondering this question, you are not alone. Many companies with a strong pipeline of qualified leads struggle with lead nurture and progression. With that in mind, here are a few tips on how to progress your leads to a successful close:

One size does not fit all. Build a marketing plan that accommodates for customers' unique business needs, addressing pain points and industry-related challenges. Then, personalize your nurture with quality content in your customer's preferred format and at at their preferred interaction level.

Address potential hurdles head on. Quality content provides value by educating clients on how your solution can address their pain points and any potential concerns. Whether the content is created by you (ex/case study) or a third party (ex/whitepaper) matters less than how well it addresses your prospect's specific concerns.

Help clients make the comparison.  When the client is ready, drill down to the details -- provide demos, guided tours or opportunities to interact with experts during webinars or face-to-face events.

Timing is everything. When you sense that your client is serious about moving forward with your company, engage sales for a successful close. Agree upon the right time to make this transition to 1:1 meetings.

Miz losing name
On the latest episode of Smackdown, we saw that Miz and Damien Sandow will be facing one another at Monday Night Raw to decide which of the two will get to keep the name and the likeness of the character in WWE. While it would make more sense for Sandow to go back to his original name, the belief is that Mike Mizanin will drop the match, so that he can take some time off to go film a movie with Paige. He's going to need a couple of weeks.
April 17, 2015
Hornswoggle backstage
While he has not been used very frequently on television, Hornswoggle is usually backstage whenever WWE films Monday Night Raw and Smackdown. Many were under the impression that he had been sent home because he no longer was being utilized with the Miz and Damien Sandow, a gimmick that was viewed as being hilarious by many backstage. The Wisconsin native still works plenty of live events for the company.
January 31, 2015
Sandow in Royal Rumble
If you watch Monday Night Raw and Smackdown on a weekly basis, then you already know that the audience has been absolutely in love with Damien Sandow and his stunt man gimmick. WWE is aware of this as well, and they're hoping that he can become one of the more entertaining aspects of the Royal Rumble match next month. There is a lot of comedic potential in an environment like that, especially since he would have to imitate Miz throughout.

Living in groups, cats normally develop a pecking order and often revert instinctively to latent, wild behaviors. To minimize conflict, you should provide each of your pets with their own safe zones, including places where they can sleep, play, scratch, eat, and eliminate. Here are ways to make sure your pets are healthy and content together:
Keep each litter box fresh In a multiple cat household, cats need to have more than one community
litter box. Ideally, there should be one more litter box than the number of cats. Each cat should have access to his or her own box, with at least one litter box on every floor and easy to get to in an emergency. Make sure that each litter box is scooped daily, or even more as necessary.
Cope with spraying The risk of urine marking is greater when several cats are present. Application of
Feliway Pheromone Spray on marked sites and on prominent objects will help reduce or discourage spraying. Eliminate problem stains with an enzymatic cleaner like
OdorLogic® CleanAway.
Provide suitable personal space Cat
trees, with multiple levels, and furniture with
hideaways, perches, and scratching posts situated in separate rooms can accommodate the social order and provide ideal hangouts.
Maintain fresh water Be sure to keep water bowls in multiple locations and keep them supplied with fresh water. If one or more of your cats prefer drinking from your dripping faucet, get a
Drinkwell Pet Fountain, which provides a continuous circulation of filtered water.
Cater to individual nutritional needs The individualized feeding of cats is a challenge, especially if you have one or more cats that each require a special
diet. Maintain individual feeding
bowls in different places and, if necessary, in a closed room.

We describe a direct method for estimating structure and motion from image intensities of multiple views. We extend the direct methods of Horn and Weldon (1988) to three views. Adding the third view enables us to solve for motion and compute a dense depth map of the scene, directly from image spatio-temporal derivatives in a linear manner without first having to find point correspondences or compute optical flow. We describe the advantages and limitations of this method which are then verified with experiments using real images

Salomon Trail Twinskin Skort - Women'sView Larger Image
At Salomon, designers don't just dream up running pieces like the Women's Trail Twinskin Skort, they test and refine them too. Through this process of design, testing, and refining, the Twinskin Skort was perfected into the bottom you see now. On the outside, this lightweight skort features an understated but feminine style. On the inside, the Twinskin features a strechy comfort brief for support and coverage. And where the inner brief and outer short intersect? Salomon's designers cleverly combined the inner and outer materials to eliminate the opportunity for chafing. You get the performance of a short and the style of a trail skort without sacrificing for the benefit of either.
- Smart Skin design uses stretch material where you need mobility, mesh where you need ventilation, and standard material where you simply need coverage
- Twinskin construction combines the inner and outer materials at the inner thigh to reduce the opportunity for chafing or discomfort
- Inner stretch-brief provides support and coverage
- Drawcord gives you one-pull fit adjustment at the waist
- Single zip pocket holds your keys, ID, or nutrition
- Reflective branding improves your visibility to motorists and in low light

Big one today! Magic Kingdom!
Usual morning stuff so won't go into detail except to say Maisie made the breakfast and a grand job she did too.
As most of you know, Owen, my youngest, is Autistic and for the most part doesn't make a great deal of comment about things going on around him but today we had two occasions where he noticed familiar things and got very excited. The first of those was the arch you drive under on World Drive welcoming you to Walt Disney World. A little voice from the back of the car said 'Wow!, Walt Disney World'.
Parking was a breeze with a tram waiting for us at the end of the row.
The tram got a 10/10 from Owen as we sped towards the TTC. Does anyone else have a tradition on their first visit to MK where it has to be the boat or it has to be the monorail that takes you to the main entrance? Up until this day we did. Always took the boat. This time though, once the two youngest saw the monorail, forget the boat!
Once through the gate we made our way to City Hall were we picked up Owen's GAC. This was easy. Maya was great and knew exactly what we needed. Owen's pass is stamped with something about using an alternative entrance. If I could be bothered to get up and read it I could put the exact wording down.
Hats bought from the Emporium to replace those left behind at home and then it was a stroll down Main Street towards this -
This trip is all about 'firsts' for us. There are many things that we either have or haven't done before that makes this so. As an example this trip is the first as me being a non-smoker. It's the first trip we've done without lugging a buggy along. Another first this trip is this - Dole whip!
None of us had ever had a Dole whip before so when we turned left at the end of Main Street into Adventureland it was the first place we headed for. We all shared one pineapple and one vanilla. Both got a big thumbs up!
Next thing to notice was the queue lengths. We did it in this order. Swiss Family Robinson treehouse, no queue (never really is), Jungle cruise, 5 mins, The Flying Carpets, 10 mins. With queues this short the GAC wasn't needed yet!
Next was Poppy's favourite as I'm sure it is for a lot of you. Pirates of The Caribbean! Queue time 20 mins so we had a chat and decided this was probably outside of Owen's limit. Out came the GAC. Let's see how we do. We approached a Cast Member who kindly guided us to an alternative entrance and we walked down a line with a couple of other people. Next thing we knew a Cast member was asking us how many in our party and we were loaded! Huge smiles all round as we did this ride. Even Owen seemed interested!
Recognise this chap?
From Pirates we leave Adventureland and enter Frontierland. Fries bought for the youngest members of the party whilst Daddy and Poppy go do Splash Mountain.
Whilst waiting we meet some old friends!
This concluded our short visit to Frontierland as Maisie was desperate to get the Liberty Square and The Haunted Mansion! Quick photo op on the way just to prove I was with the family!
Haunted Mansion was another reasonably longish queue. 30 mins. Out came the GAC again and a really lovely Cast Member took us through a side door into the first room of your journey through the Haunted Mansion. Thumbs up from everyone for this ride. Owen seemed to like it!
Moving on from Liberty Square we arrived in Fantasyland! A huge favourite for everyone in the family. First stop? Yep! IASW! A fast moving short queue took us to our boat and into the stuff of dreams (good or bad, you decide!).
From It's A Small World we go back to what I was saying about firsts. During our visit to Fantasyland we did 2. Peter Pan's Flight and Snow White's Scary Adventure. Both were fab!
As we left Snow White Owen saw the Dumbo, flying elephants. This ride he is familiar with from DLRP. This was the second occasion were he showed excitement! As soon as he saw them he took my hand and said. Mum, come and see my elephants! Needless to say, we rode the elephants asap! From Dumbo it was to the carousel. Still looking at only 10 minute queues here!
My boys - xxx
After exiting the carousel we all voted to call it a day and return to the swimming house. The rest of Magic Kingdom will have to wait till Friday when we return for our second visit of the trip.
Walking back down Main Street we stopped of at the bakery. Well it would be rude not to!
Coffee, sodas, apple and cherry turn-overs and cupcakes were consumed!
Bumped into more friends as we made our way out of the park.
A refreshing swim for all that afternoon was followed by a quick trip out for dinner. As you can imagine we were all worn out so it was a quick dinner at the Market St Cafe, a little visit to the fountains
and then it was home to bed. Another fantastically exciting and busy day!

The concept of equality or equivalency is central to mathematics, as even the most simple algebra requires a statement of equivalency in order to present a statement that is true and can be solved. Such equality can even be found in non-mathematical arenas, as when mention of one thing immediately brings to mind thoughts of another. For example, it is true that there are certain cities whose names have become almost equivalent to organizations they house. When a character in The Great Gatsby says that someone "went to New Haven", it is assumed that he went to Yale University.

Most web-based course catalogs that I have surfed through seem like they were designed using an original Commodore 64. As an academic advisor, I often have the "pleasure" of browsing course catalogs from schools all over the United States. I have yet to find a course catalog that has an intuitive interface. My experience as an advisor should theoretically provide me with some advantage when I'm perusing a school's course catalog as I search for course information. However, I can say without any hesitation that most online course catalogs need to be rebuilt and redesigned.

The last few years have been a bit of a roller coaster ride for my son Nick. He's been busy with school obligations, starting rock bands with his friends, and trying to pass a full schedule of Honors and AP coursework. Nick seems happy. He works as a lifeguard and plays in his school's marching band. But for some reason, he refuses to do much homework and his grades have dropped.

A thoughtful reader forwarded me a link to his blog post, in which he sets out a few, fairly narrow conditions under which he considers it appropriate for administrators to "tackle the faculty." They are:--When you have a legal obligation or a mandate from further up the administrative food chain. "I know you don't like it, folks, but we have to do it."

Health care and education are the defining issues of our time. These industries share a common set of challenges around costs, access, and quality. We have the world's greatest hospitals and colleges, doctors and professors - and people from around the world continue to look to our health care and academic institutions for leadership and innovation. People working in these two sectors also share a common realization that we cannot go into the future as we have proceeded in the past. We need to find ways to bend the cost curves for health care costs and tuition.

Winnipeg, Canada I work and attend a commuter University. It's in the heart of downtown, and in Winnipeg, downtown is not a thriving social hub. People don't want to stay downtown after dark, nor do they tend to choose it as a place to socialize. For the most part, the campus community scurries back to their suburban neighbourhoods at the end of the day, and does their studying and socializing in those areas.

At a recent birthday party one of my daughter's friends received a copy of the young readers edition of the book "The Omnivore's Dilemma" by Michael Pollan. The dust jacket describes the book as "an unforgettable journey behind the scenes of your dinner". My daughter was intrigued. It is a very readable narrative, and since she found it in the library a last week, she has carried it around constantly.

Getting back to basics with Arch Linux
If you're looking for a fast, stable system without the GUI goo, try Arch Linux.
The recent emphasis of the Linux community has been on desktop distros that make it easy to install and configure the system without venturing beyond the GUI. Despite the success of these beginner-friendly systems, a significant segment of the Linux population prefers a simpler approach. These back-to-basics users want clarity, stability, and speed, and they do not care about the proliferation of redundant tools and glossy configuration helpers that populate the GUI-based systems. In the past, no-frills Linux users gravitated to systems such as Slackware, Gentoo, or Debian, but another back-to-basics distro is gaining favor among the Linux faithful: Arch Linux. Arch Linux [1] was started by Judd Vinet in 2001 when he discovered that he couldn't find any other distribution that met his ideals. Arch has taken ideas from Debian, Gentoo and Slackware, and has gradually evolved into a simple, powerful, and stable distribution with an active user and developer population.

Cuba Gooding Jr. And Keith David Join Comedy Central's Big Time In Hollywood, FL
By Nick Venable 2 years ago comments
If you see Cuba Gooding Jr., Michael Madsen and Keith David on a cast listing, youd be perfectly within your right as an entertainment fan to assume the project was a straight-to-DVD thriller about a murderous husband. But thats not the case here at all, as the three actors have all signed on for recurring roles on the upcoming Comedy Central series Big Time in Hollywood, FL, which is coming to TV through Ben Stillers Red Hour and Brillstein Entertainment Partners.
Written by actor Alex Anfanger (Burning Love) and his Next Time on Lonny director Dan Schimpf, Big Time in Hollywood, FL stars Anfanger and Lenny Jacobson (Nurse Jackie) as Jack and Ben, two filmmaker-wannabe brothers who get kicked out of their parents house and must then figure out how to make it on their own in the outside world. Im guessing theyre going to try to make movies about their trials and tribulations. Kathy Baker (Picket Fences) and Stephen Tobolowsky (Californication) play the brothers parents Diana and Alan, respectively.
It takes a certain kind of celebrity to pull off playing a heightened version of his- or herself on a comedy series, but it seems like a skill centered squarely in Gooding Jr.s acting wheelhouse. (Find your inner Rod Tidwell, Cuba!) The Oscar-winning actor will play himself for six of Big Times ten episodes.
David, meanwhile, will also star in six episodes, but as a federal agent sent to Hollywood, Florida to investigate Cartel activity. I love when David gets involved with comedy, as hes much funnier than his intimidating presence might convey. Hell never utter a line funnier to me than his Requiem for a Dream line when he tells Jennifer Connellys character, I know its pretty, baby, but I didnt take it out for air. I guess that isn't a comedy though.
And then theres Mr. Blonde, Michael Madsen, who will appear in four episodes. Deadline describes his character exactly as youd expect him to be. Hes a grizzled, alcoholic private detective hired by the family to track their sons criminal activity. Given Davids character will be around for six episodes, it seems likely that Jack and Bens illegal dealings involve Cartel figures in some way.
Gooding Jr. has seen something of a career resurgence, with recent roles in Lee Daniels The Butler, Don Jon and Machete Kills. Hes currently filming Ava DuVernays historical drama Selma. David, whose Fox series Enlisted was unfairly cancelled, voices the Flame King on Adventure Time and hell be playing Don King in Jesse Vaughans upcoming boxing drama The Last Punch. Madsen, whos in about 300 films a year it seems, voiced the heinous Carver for Telltales The Walking Dead: The Game and is set for a role in Quentin Tarentinos The Hateful Eight.
Big Time in Hollywood, FL is currently filming and will hit Comedy Central in 2015.

every other day? or is that too much exfoliation for asian skin? Would that & daily use of 4% hydroquinone for 4 months be enough to get rid of chickenpox pigmentations on the body? I really don't want to go thru a peel as I've seen people with scary looking burns. But if I must add one to get rid of the dryness and the uneven skintone, which peels and what % are safe for Asians? Would you need to do a peel monthly to maintain or can you maintain results with AHA lotions & alpha arbutin? Thanks!
Is It Safe to Apply 10% Glycolic Acid Lotion Ph 3.5 Twice a Day on Your Body Daily & then Use Amlactin 12% Lactic Acid Ph 4.5?

Safety of Using Products
Thank you for your question. Depending on multiple factors including your skin type, skin condition, and skin sensitivity, exfoliation would vary. There is a higher risk of irritation and post inflammatory hyper-pigmentation so products should be used cautiously on skin of color. I would suggest you consult with a Board Certified Dermatologist to evaluate your skin and determine your best course of treatment. I hope this helps.
