1) Take in mind you're ordering a completely hand sewn item. I don't use any type of machine and I don't receive help from anybody. I'm not a mass producing company either.
2) Any and all crafts commissioned is one of a kind. That means you don't have something millions of people have. You have something unique and made with love. Even if I make 2 or 3 plushes of the same character they're different from the others.
3) Every plush I make will have my personal tag attached to them. These tags have my logo, the year when the item was made and the link to my page.
4) My work is meant to be as collectable/display items, they're not meant for play or for children. You can play with them but softly.
5) I don't work for free. This means no requests and/or art trades.
1) I reserve my right of not accepting your order. It can be because I don't trust you, because you have a bad attitude or simply because I cannot make your order.
2) Payments are via Paypal only, because is safer and faster for both parts.
3) When you commit to order, I will ask for half of the price first (non-refundable if you don't want the plush anymore later on) and second half when I finish. You can also pay the complete total in just one payment, and as soon as I finish I ship it out. Your choice.
4) My Shipping days usually are Fridays or Saturdays. I might ship it out sooner or a day or two later, depending on if something happens. All packages will have tracking number.
5) I try to work on my orders as fast as I can. Remember I have a life too, I study in the university and I also have a family, they also need my attention. Please don't try to send me messages to make me hurry up. Trust me, I wont hurry up more than what I already do.
1) Send me a private note with pictures of the character you want and the size desired for the finished product (I do a max. of 12 inches). Please send pictures of all the angles of the character (front, back, sides) so I don't leave any detail behind.
2) When I give you your price quote and all the information let me know if you would like to confirm the order or not. I wont bite you if you say "I wont confirm".
|My different creations. You can see lots of stuff here that I make. To drawings and paintings, writing, textiles and plushies as well. Take a peek inside and comment on anything you like. Thanks for the visit~!

It had all the elements of a Hollywood story, a reckless driver weaving through traffic, police hot on her tail, pedestrians standing in harm's way.
Police seemingly trapped their suspect in a nearby parking lot, but the driver in the gold Intrepid refusing to give up.
OFC John Newland with TPD said, "When she turned around she almost struck an officer, and that's when he fired rounds into her car."
Jim Waller, a witness, said, "As soon as I heard the shots I tried to move to the building and be safe."
But safety wasn't an issue for the suspect, 16-year-old Anquette Giddens. She pressed on, smashing through 10 or so cars careening down Tennessee Street, leaving onlookers in disbelief.
Trevor Bond, an eyewitness, asked himself, "Am I really seeing this car up on two wheels sliding right passed me?"
Straight out of a movie, up until the very end when the gold Intrepid could handle no more, officers made their move using a taser, then physical strength, pulling Giddens from her car, cuffing her and taking her in.
Police say Giddens faces more than a dozen charges including grand theft auto and aggravated assault on a police officer. She has been booked in the Juvenile Assessment Center.
OFC John Creamer, a 12-year-veteran with TPD, has been placed on paid administrative leave.

Chobani founder's ex-wife claims he STOLE the yogurt recipe from rival Fage as she tries to halt sale of $1billion business
- Founder Hamdi Ulukaya's ex wife tried to halt the sale of a portion of Chobani by trying to get a restraining order
- Court threw out her claims on Friday
- She said that her ex 'boasted' about buying Fage's recipe after bribing a former Fage employee 30,000 euros for the information
- Alleged that he stole checks from his brother, embezzled money from family members, and cut an out-of-court deal to avoid a government trial
- Chobani spokesman said her claims were 'baseless and without merit'
The ex-wife of the Chobani yogurt founder has filed a lawsuit claiming that he paid 30,000 euros to a disgruntled former Fage employee so that he could have his competitor's top secret recipe.
Hamdi Ulukaya, the founder of the billion-dollar Chobani empire, is being sued by his ex-wife Ayse Giray because she claims he is trying to sell of parts of the company so that she loses her 53 per cent stake, even though her holdings are backed up by questionable proof to begin with.
The latest court filing made numerous claims about how Ulukaya allegedly stole checks from his brother and threatened friends to help him first get the company off the ground, but one of the most explosive assertions is about his supposed deal to get Fage's signature recipe.
Man behind the brand: Hamdi Ulukaya (pictured in 2011) is fighting claims made by his ex wife, who says that he stole the recipe for his famed Chobani brand from his chief rival, Fage
On Friday, a New York court rejected
Ms Giray's claims and denied her a temporary restraining order to stop
her ex from pursuing any sale of the company.
'We're pleased with the Court's decision to deny a temporary restraining order and the plaintiff's decision to withdraw the request for a preliminary injunction as the allegations are completely baseless and without merit,' the company spokesman told MailOnline.
Giray claimed that her ex told her on numerous occasions about how he 'boasted' about flying to Europe to meet a former Fage employee and exchange the secret recipe and cooking process for 30,000 euros.
The identity of the supposed corporate traitor has not been revealed, nor has any further information about the covert meeting.
Mr Ulukaya has not publicly commented on the claims but a Chobani spokesman told The New York Post that they were 'baseless and without merits'.
Classic Greek yogurt has very simple ingredients, but there is a distinctive taste that differentiates the two brands.
On its website, Fage boasts of how their product is 'made with a family recipe that dates back to 1926, it contains no added sweeteners, thickeners, preservatives, powdered milk, powdered cream or powdered protein. Just milk, cream and live active cultures to create all natural FAGE yogurt.'
By comparison, Chobani's website explains how they worked for two years 'discovering the perfect blend of stevia, monk fruit and evaporated cane juice'.
Fage uses cow's milk and live yogurt cultures which are blended together and then strained.
Chobani does the same procedure before adding fruit and sweeteners.
'It's a thoughtful process that, unlike some of the other guys, ensures we never use preservatives,' their website reads.
Classic Greek yogurt has very simple ingredients, but there is a distinctive taste that differentiates the two brands.
Chobani's website explains how they worked for two years
'discovering the perfect blend of stevia, monk fruit and evaporated cane
They use
regional milk from cows near the company's Fulton County, New York
headquarters that is then turned into yogurt after a straining process
'that's been around for generations'.
'This special process makes our yogurt extra thick and gives it twice as much protein than regular, unstrained yogurts,' their website states.
They then add the combination of natural sweeteners and fruit, depending on the flavor.
'It's a thoughtful process that, unlike some of the other guys, ensures we never use preservatives,' the website reads.

'Just milk, cream and live active cultures to create all natural FAGE yogurt.'
Fage uses cow's milk and live yogurt cultures which are blended together and then strained.
'Our straining technique removes all of the watery whey from the pasteurized cows' milk, leaving you with only the thick, velvety texture of creamy FAGE yogurt,' the website reads.Like Chobani, Fage is also based out of New York and has their headquarters and production base in Johnstown.
The alleged instance of corporate thievery is not the only damning claim made by Giray in the filing, which was reported by The New York Post.
She also alleged that her former husband was not against stealing from relatives and friends when he was first trying to get the company off the ground.
He tried funding Euphrates, the original company that later evolved into what is now known as Chobani, by stealing checks from his brother's account and forging his brother's signature.
The New York Post also reported that Ms Giray claimed that he stole and forged checks from his brother embezzled a check from his family and threatened that he wouldn't return it unless he was given $750,000.
Chobani has become a favorite among New York politicians because their headquarters is helping to bring jobs and boost the economy of the upstate farming communities.
Senator Chuck Schumer blasted Russian officials from stopping American athletes from bringing the brand with them to Sochi during the Winter Games and Governor Andrew Cuomo has repeatedly used it as an example of ways that businesses can flourish in the state.
Political issue: Chobani, which is valued at more than $1billion, has become a favorite success story of politicians including New York Lt Governor Bob Duffy (seen with Ulukaya in 2012) but the new court filing claims that Ulukaya paid a district attorney $1million to settle a case
One of Ms Giray's final claims may hurt that chummy relationship, however, as the lawsuit also alleged that her ex paid $1million to the Fulton County district attorney to settle a case about improper yogurt disposal.
Ms Giray has listed off these claims as part of a court filing to try to get a judge to rule that Mr Ulukaya is not legally allowed to pursue any deals with private equity firm TPG, which Chobani is in talks with over a possible 15 per cent sale.
This comes as the latest shot in an ongoing battle over Ms Giray's claims to the majority ownership.
She has a handwritten note written by Mr Ulukaya in 2003 that said that she was promised a 53 per cent stake in Eyphrates, the original company that came after she reportedly paid $500,000 as an initial investment in the company during their very early stages.
Aside from the note, she has no other proof- such as stock certificates or legal deeds of ownership- to back up her case.

Rapper Hard Kaur is happy that a lot of Bollywood songs have included raps in their songs and it has become popular among the masses.
The singer, who has rapped in movies like "Johny Gaddar", "Ugly Aur Pagli" and "Patiala House", always wanted to expand the reach of the genre.
"I always wanted to educate people about hip-hop music. The best way to introduce more people to the music is through Bollywood, which helped me to spread the fever of hip-hop and rap music. I have been here for five years and I see so many people trying rap already," Kaur told IANS.
The singer was at Radio Mirchi 93.3 FM's campaign Bol Story Bol here. The channel distributed audio books marking their 11th birthday.

sound and battery didn't work with kexts from Doix v6 pack
installing with kext wizard the battery kexts from the link a few posts back did the job
installing the kexts attached did the job for sound (I removed the Dell_XPS_ALC665 from S/L/E)

Weird... i wonder if something changed in 10.7.4 that breaks the scripts. I'll check/fix it when v7 will be released... atm i'm waiting on a update on something to include it.
that's strange because I manually repaired permissions and rebuild caches after installing the kexts with your v6 package.
Weird... i wonder if something changed in 10.7.4 that breaks the scripts. I'll check/fix it when v7 will be released... atm i'm waiting on a update on something to include it.
Doix, do i smell a gt540m?
Random question, and one that people here may not know. But does anyone know if the 10.7.4 update fixes the 'cursor disappearing when going from one monitor to another' bug?
I only notice it on my desktop, which I dont really want to bother updating as I dont see many features of 10.7.4 that interest me. Although if that fix is one of the features then I may consider updating =)
- kextcache and kext permission script finally fixed.
- updated Boot.plist's EFI String for the IGPU
- included Kozlek's HWSensors and HWMonitor
- updated AppleHDA.kext, removed DELL_XPS_665 injector.
- new DSDT (DSDT14May) with restart fix.
- added the AICPUPM.kext from 10.7.4
- improved SSDTs one for i5 and another for i7 users.
- included Graphics Artefacts patch
- IO80211Family.kext from 10.7.2 to fix broken wifi for some atheros cards
Will try it out
-one little flaw still in the installer: choice between MP 8,1 8,2 and 8,2 instead of 8,3
-please remove Quiet Boot = yes as I and probably many others want to see the prompt or even use Instant Menu = yes
-same with Timeout, please put 5 instead of 1
-what about CSTusingsystemIO? is it not necessary?
-same with npci=0x2000? not needed anymore?
good work DoiX!
Nice work DoiX - new DSDT works flawlessly with reboot. I've also retouched your SSDT for the higher clock speeds on my 2720 - works great.
On other news we're starting to see a breakthrough in finally breaking through the bios. If you've got any spare time, and are linux and/or toolchain friendly, maybe now could be a good time to dip in...
Great work on the latest package mate.

Certain types of seafood are overfished and/or are harvested in a manner that causes undue stress to the environment or other marine life. Our commitment to protect ocean resources is an integral part of our sustainability mission to do business in a manner that promotes the well-being of our customers, employees, communities, and the global environment.
When you purchase seafood that is responsibly farmed or harvested you are supporting best practices that will help to ensure a healthy supply of seafood for generations to come.
*These species contain the daily minimum of Omega-3 fatty acids per 3.5 oz serving.
For more information visit fishwise.org and edf.org/seafood
These fish are safe for ages 4 and up to eat at least 4 oz. per week, based on EPA standards and EDF compiled mercury testing data, and are either Best Choices or Good Alternatives according to Seafood Watch. Fish not on this list may be:

This information is provided through a collaborative effort between FishWise and Environmental Defense Fund. fishwise.org | edf.org/seafood
Sustainable seafood comes from sources, whether fished or farmed, that can maintain or increase production in the long-term without jeopardizing the structure or function of affected ecosystems.
Hy-Vee's Seafood Procurement PolicyHy-Vee's intent is to sell high-quality seafood that not only is safe for consumption but also is harvested or raised in a manner that provides for its long-term viability (sustainability) while minimizing damage to the environment and other sea life. View our Seafood Procurement Policy.
Responsible Sourcing CommitmentIn order to protect marine resources and ensure future seafood supplies, Hy-Vee has committed to selling responsibly sourced fresh and frozen seafood that is rated as a Green 'Best Choice' or a Yellow 'Good Alternative' by the Monterey Bay Aquarium's Seafood Watch program, certified to an environmental standard equivalent to these ratings, or sourced from credible, time-bound improvement projects. In 2011, Hy-Vee ambitiously committed to sourcing our fresh and frozen seafood from environmentally responsible sources and to improve the traceability of our seafood by the end of 2015. We are proud to announce that in December 2015, we source 100% of our fresh and private label frozen seafood from responsible sources.
View the Responsible Sourcing Commitment press release.
How is Sustainability Assessed?To make sustainable seafood recommendations, we draw from a variety of science-based sources such as peer-reviewed research, third-party certifications and color rankings generated by nonprofit organizations. You can do your part to support healthy oceans by purchasing Hy-Vee's Responsible Choice seafood.
As of December 2015, 100% of Hy-Vee's fresh and private label frozen seafood met the goal of being responsibly sourced. This is a 38% increase from January 2014. In two short years, we committed to our goal and succeeded in obtaining only responsibly sourced seafood.
Proud to Offer Responsible ChoicesSeafood products bearing the "Responsible Choice" symbol meet Hy-Vee's policy and are caught or farmed in a responsible manner. Specifically, these options are rated as either Green 'Best Choices' or Yellow 'Good Alternatives' by the Monterey Bay Aquarium's Seafood Watch program, or are certified to an environmental standard benchmarked to at least these ratings.
Salmon: All of Hy-Vee's fresh and private label farmed salmon is responsibly sourced and is Seafood Watch Green or Yellow rated. We also offer Green-rated wild Alaskan salmon.
Shrimp: By engaging in certification strengthening and encouraging shrimp farmers to improve, we were able to source 100% of our fresh and private label frozen farmed shrimp from responsible sources.
King Crab: In 2012, Hy-Vee transitioned sourcing to 100% Alaskan king crab and started the highly successful annual Alaskan king crab leg sales promotion.
Yellowfin Tuna: Hy-Vee's transition to handline fisheries and MSC-certified fisheries for imported yellowfin tuna resulted in 100% responsibly sourcing of Hy-Vee's fresh and private label tuna.
When you purchase Hy-Vee seafood, you are supporting best practices that will help to ensure a healthy supply of seafood for generations to come.

Canned tuna is one of the top three most consumed seafood products in the United States. In fact, each American ate an average of 2.4 pounds of canned tuna in 2012. Considering that tuna is a rich source of heart-healthy omega-3s, niacin and vitamins, it's not surprising that canned tuna is in such high demand. However, its popularity has also led to the decline of many tuna stocks in the world's oceans. Some fishing methods used for tuna can also have negative impacts on other species in the ocean, such as sea turtles, sharks and seabirds. Given these concerns, Hy-Vee recently unveiled two new Responsible Choice canned tuna products.
Hy-Vee Select Solid Light Tuna skipjack is caught from fisheries using pole-and-line catch methods. This traditional type of tuna fishing is highly selective, catching one fish at a time and producing very little bycatch.
Hy-Vee Select Solid White Albacore Tuna is caught using pole-and-troll gear, which are considered to be among the most selective and ocean-friendly methods for catching tuna. Pole-and-troll caught albacore also targets younger tuna that have lower levels of mercury than older fish caught on longlines. Because of its environmental and health benefits, albacore from pole-and-troll fisheries is rated as a Super Green source of seafood by the Monterey Bay Aquarium's Seafood Watch Program.
Hy-Vee collects in-depth information about product sourcing from our suppliers. This allows Hy-Vee to have traceability conversations with suppliers and their supply chains to improve transparency. FishWise reviews the data and conducts traceability exercises to ensure accuracy. Hy-Vee's seafood suppliers have also been notified of our commitment to sustainability and traceability, and the importance of ensuring that seafood is harvested in compliance with management plans and all applicable regulations, including fair labor practices.
Greenpeace released its 2015 Carting Away the Oceans (CATO) report in July, ranking Hy-Vee at third out of the 25 largest supermarket chains in the United States. Since 2008, Greenpeace has evaluated and ranked supermarkets in the CATO report based on their efforts to protect both the oceans and seafood industry workers.
Hy-Vee moved up to the top three this year, finishing in the "good" category and scoring above a 7 out of 10 for the first time. Hy-Vee was evaluated on the sustainability of its seafood in four key areas: policy, initiatives, labeling and transparency, and Red List inventory. This is only the second year Hy-Vee has been evaluated for the report.
Greenpeace writes: "After its 'Carting Away the Oceans' debut last year, Hy-Vee doubled down on its strong performance, coming in third place overall and entering the good category for the first time. Hy-Vee means business about sustainable seafood. … Hy-Vee dropped Chilean sea bass, issued a strong public statement against GMO seafood, is on track to hit its 2015 sustainability goals and twice weighed in at key moments to address Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated fishing in the industry by sending letters to Congress."
Since Hy-Vee embarked on the mission to source responsible seafood, new issues and unanticipated challenges have arisen, and Hy-Vee has addressed them head on. Complex challenges remain for Hy-Vee and for the seafood industry as a whole.
Being an industry leader in sustainable seafood means extending our work beyond our direct purchasing and engaging with the larger issues at hand.
Legislation to address illegal fishing and human traffickingIn support of legal and traceable seafood in the United States, Hy-Vee sent letters to representatives in the House and Senate urging them to pass legislation that addresses illegal fishing and cracks down on human trafficking. The Illegal, Unreported, and Unregulated Fishing Act of 2015 was signed into law on Nov. 5, 2015. This is an important step toward ensuring our U.S. seafood marketplace is composed of safe, legal and responsible seafood and that illegal fishing is reduced in the waters around the world.
Protection for the Bering Sea CanyonsThe Bering Sea is an area of exceptional productivity, supporting an abundance of fishes, seabirds and marine mammals. Submarine canyons in the Bering Sea are home to deep-sea corals and sponges that provide important habitat for fish and other marine life. Hy-Vee is encouraging efforts to develop a Fishery Ecosystem Plan for the Bering Sea that consider the ecological impact of deep-sea canyon habitats.
Pledge to Protect the Ross SeaThe Ross Sea in Antarctica is the least altered marine ecosystem on Earth, supporting exceptional abundances of organisms such as krill, penguins, fishes and marine mammals. Known as the 'Last Ocean', this prolific ecosystem was essentially untouched by humans until 1996, when commercial fishing began for the Antarctic toothfish, more commonly known as 'Chilean sea bass.'
In support of the creation of a marine-protected area in one of the world's most isolated and pristine marine ecosystems, Hy-Vee has pledged not to buy Antarctic toothfish (also known as Chilean sea bass) from the Ross Sea. Serving as wildlife parks in the ocean, marine protected areas are designated zones in the ocean where fishing activities are restricted or prohibited.
Pledge for GE-Free SeafoodHy-Vee's policy is to sell seafood that is safe for consumption and harvested or raised in a responsible manner. Hy-Vee will not purchase or sell genetically modified or genetically engineered seafood. We are confident this is the best decision for our customers as well as the environment.
Genetically modified and genetically engineered seafood products are inconsistent with Hy-Vee's Seafood Procurement Policy, which can be found here. Our commitment to not sell genetically engineered seafood is highlighted on the Friends of the Earth pledge website at www.foe.org/gefreeseafood.
Fishery Improvement ProjectsA fishery improvement project (FIP) is a multi-stakeholder effort to improve a particular aspect of a fishery. FIPs are an important component of Hy-Vee's Seafood Procurement Policy as they provide a direct pathway for Hy-Vee to encourage improvements on the water — be that through strengthening fisheries management policies or by providing incentives for fishers to reduce the environmental impacts of their fishing gear. To promote healthy oceans and ensure long-term seafood supplies, Hy-Vee is actively encouraging many of its seafood suppliers to participate in FIPs.
Fair Trade Certified™Hy-Vee believes that in order to take better care of our oceans and fish species, we also have to take care of fishermen and their communities. We are working toward 100% Fair Trade Certified™ tuna in all of our fresh seafood cases, Market Grilles and Asian departments.
We are partnering with Fair Trade USA, a nonprofit organization and the leading certifier of Fair Trade products in North America. Through our partnership, we're working to build more resilient livelihoods in coastal communities, improved working and living conditions, increased supply and demand for responsibly sourced seafood, and enhanced environmental stewardship and ecosystem protection.
The Fair Trade Certified™ label is a mechanism to reward best-in-class seafood companies for their commitment to sourcing ethical seafood, and we're proud to be part of it.
Several years ago, Hy-Vee became the first retailer in the nation to hire its own U.S. Department of Commerce (USDC) lot inspector to ensure the quality, safety and integrity of the fresh seafood it buys. The USDC inspector is stationed onsite at the PDI distribution facility in Ankeny, Iowa, where he routinely checks incoming shipments of fresh seafood and rejects those that do not meet Hy-Vee's standards.
To help us achieve our goals of sourcing sustainable seafood, we partnered with FishWise, an environmental nonprofit organization that promotes the health and recovery of ocean ecosystems through environmentally and socially responsible business practices.
FishWise helps companies improve the sustainability of their seafood offerings via employee training, sourcing assistance, and point-of-sale information. Their programs allow consumers to make environmentally informed choices when purchasing seafood.

LPS-18465 Member activities portlet lists private data LPS-45608 Subscribe link of "Members' Activities" portlet is not working LPS-12761 Can not determine the activities in Members' Activites portlet LPS-34363 Social Networking - Viewing Members' Activities with a user whose site membership has been reinstated, throws exceptions LPS-22951 Members' Activities and Members portlets are not formatted correctly
This problem occurs when the user has permission to view the content related to the activity but he does not have permission to access the "container" of that content. For example if the user has permission to view a wiki page, he will see activities related to it even if he doesn't have permission to view the node. The solution is for the permission system to check the view permission of the "container" dinamically.
How to reproduce :
1. Create 2 (regular) roles : "Big" and "Little"
2. Create one user ("BigUser") with "Big" role and another ("LittleUser") with "Little" role
3. Create a regular Organization named "Org" and add "BigUser" and "LittleUser" as members
4. Create a "Wiki" page in "Org" with "view" permission only for "Big" role
5. Create an "Activities" page in "Org" with "view" permission for "Organization Members" role
6. Add a "wiki" portlet to "Wiki" page and an "Members' Activities" portlet on "Activities"
7. Add a wiki page with default permissions ("Viewable by Organization Members")
===> A new line appears on "Activities"
8. Connect with "LittleUser" and go to "Activities"
===> In the activity page you could see the activity(It's because the permissions checked are the node and page permissions - and LittleUser has permission to view them.)
9. Click on the link to the new wiki page
===> An error appears : you can't access the wiki page (this is because little doesn't have permission to enter in activities page)
10. Connect back with your admin user
11. Change permissions to "Wiki" page so that "Little" role can view it
12. Change Organization's Wiki "Main" node permissions so that only "Big" role can view it
13. Connect with "LittleUser" and go to "Activities"
14. Click on the link to the new wiki page
===> An error appears : you can't access the wiki node
Note that I made this example for a wiki but it's also reproducible with other contents too (Calendar events, for example). I tried on an organization, but a Community can have the problem too.
The problem is here with users' private pages, too.

Hi Pierre Morin,
Thanks for the report,I have some questions,first,you use "Members' Activities" portlet on "Activities" page,not "Activities" portlet? "Members' Activities" portlet only display member user's,not administrator's.Second,at beginning you add Wiki page view permission only for "Big" role,so if you sign in with little user,I think of course you couldn't see the wiki page.because little user didn't have that permission,and then at step 12 you change permissions to "Wiki" page so that "Little" role can view it,but at the viki page,you change the permissions so that only "Big" role can view it,I think little user of course couldn't see it.If at the viki page you give the permission that little role also can view it,little user can see the viki page.If I understand anything wrong,please reply me,thanks.I will close this ticket first.

There are totally two bugs on this ticket. Step 9 and step 14, both the two steps
shouldn't see some lines in "Members' Activities" portlet. In step 14, this bug is
fixed, I can not see the lines anymore, but in step 9, I can still see the lines.
This is a bit of a security concern. Once Social Office comes out this may be an even bigger concern because users will ideally utilize the personal site more and the activities feed is a part of the public profile. Everytime a user creates a private task or uploads a private file, those things are published to the feed.
Thanks for looking into this.

NESN and other supposed sports news sources report that... well, they report that the Ottawa Sun reports that... Kessel wants 5 million and that he's probably on his way out.
And I'm reporting that Kessel wants 10 million, because I like that fairytale. any takers?
"...asked about the report that Kessel was seeking a contract worth $5 million a year – which, by the way, would price him right out of the Bruins' market, unless they unloaded a major salary to compensate — the 21-year-old forward chuckled."
"No, that's false," he said. "I don't know where that gets reported from. I want to be a Bruin, so we'll see what happens." source
This 5 mill dollar BS is all over the internet and in print.
I guess all those other 'news sources' that reported on the Ott Sun report assumed the Ott Sun had sources. But-- read the article, people. The Ott Sun says it was just a rumor "on the boards". source
Maybe it's true, maybe it's false. But that can be said about anything. I say there's a squirrel at my door right now. I haven't looked outside and I've never seens a squirrel downtown, but it could be true!
Get serious. Do a Google search for the initial rumor (Ott Sun story: June 7th; initial rumor: ?).
5 minutes of research reveals this is a circus. Our Ott Sun dude got a rumor from this mysterious discussion board and... and that's good enough for all the other sources reporting on the story. Who's the bigger fool?
Hard to say.
I know this isn't the BBC media, but come on. Give us a reason to read sports news. If you've got nothing to report and feel a need to make stuff up, find a job in fiction.

More than 150 students at Thomas County Central High School are taking part in a program called "Teen Lean."
The student initiated program is a mock of the community event "Team Lean" put on by the YMCA.
The program kicked off in early January and since then students said they've noticed changes in their day day lives.
"I usually have a shorter breath like when I'm doing something ... but now I can be more athletic than I use to be," said 12th grade student Vrna Leonard.
"I've lost nine pounds in one week," said 10th grade student Harley Hudson.
Students weigh in once a week and the male and female winner with the most weight loss gets 100 dollar cash prize.

I am now in Casares, Nicaragua. A small fishing village that used to be the hot spot for people from Managua to come for the weekends to get away from the city.
The spot to do that now is a place called San Juan de sur, further south of Casares. Still on the ocean, San Juan de sur has much more of a harbor, and is built up quite a bit. This is where the people from the city go now, to their weekend homes.
Since the locals like it, this is also where you go as a tourist, to be by the ocean. A relatively small town, it is tucked away off the main highway, with houses being built going up the local hillsides. Like California, when the rains come or an earthquake hits, the houses will eventually loose their footings and collapse.
I found Casares by mistake, which appears to be my main way of finding cool, out of the way places.
There is a tourist town that the government has set up on the opposite end of the road that runs along the beach. Since the government has decided to charge to get into the village, I made a u-turn and headed down south. Took a right, and what appears? This nice little hotel in the middle of this remote village. Hotel Casino, run and owned by Patrice Glo - and ex-pat from France.
I think about 12 rooms, and it is the easiest hotel to get to. There is another hotel in town, the Hotel Lapita, but one has to go down a dirt/stone/gravel road, so I decided to stay at the Hotel Casino.
Having a 5 day pass to get through Nicaragua, and the hassle at the border crossing between Honduras and Nicaragua, I needed to relax for a few days before exiting and coming back into Nicaragua. I knew ahead of time it was going to be stressful, and the border guards did not let me down. Took about 7 hours to get to Costa Rica and then get back into Nicaragua for in order for me to get my 90 visa.
So, having stayed here once, and enjoying Patrice Glo's hospitality, I have decided to try again to get in a groove of writing on a regular basis and see about getting a little money going from the articles and pictures.
I overheard a lady traveler talking about how great it was to be a fisherman here. The camaraderie of working together to get the boats out into the ocean, and then getting them back into shore.
I sat and watched, and thought to myself, "Self, that is a lot of work - camaraderie or whatever. I would NOT want to do that day in and day out to make a living."
If you check out my slide show, you will see the work these fishermen go through to get the equipment to the shore, load the boat, and get the boat launched.
Launched may not be the right word - more like rolled into the ocean. They use logs to move the boat along the beach to get into the ocean. Takes about 8 guys to get this accomplished.
Then once out into the ocean, they lower their nets, come close to shore and sit for 3 to 4 hours while the nets get filled with fish. They then go back, haul in the nets, race into the beach and pull the propeller up so it does not get caught up in the sand or rocks.
The process is repeated, putting the boat on logs to roll in up further on the beach away from the surf.
Then it is unloading the fish, getting the fish weighed and getting payed for the catch. Lots of work,little money but it is their way of life here. All I can say is, "Self, better them then me!"
My article about the hassles at the border irked one of the ex-pats that reads my blog. He said press like that would hinder travelers coming into Honduras.
Travelers of the world - the hassles at borders in Central America are like kids going in and shop lifting at a candy store.
The U.S.A. and Europe are stealing so much money from their citizens that soon the second great depression will occur. It is ridiculous that the people have not revolted and kicked out their crooked politicians and bankers. If you do not believe me, then read zero hedge or The Solari Report Blog for a week. Then you will understand why the border crossing hassles are really minor compared to the shenanigans that are going on in Europe and the U.S.A.
So travelers, all of Central America is good to visit. Just don't buy into this stuff that it is all "Paradise". There are hassles, there is "mordida" that will solve problems before they get big.
"Mordida" is a bite. A little piece of the "action". The locals do not view it as a bribe, but as a way of doing business. This has been going on since the Spaniards were the rulers of the area. Not going to change anytime soon. It is a custom and a way of life. Just accept it, and it becomes a lot easier to deal with.
Again, compared to the theft that the banks and government officials are doing in Europe and the U.S.A., it is a very minor hassle. At least the officials here are up front and open about it. Unlike their counterparts in the U.S.A. and Europe, who try and convince their citizens that robbing them is for their best interests.
Before arguing with me about the theft in the western world, read zero hedge and the Solari Report Blog for a week.
Then, if you do not get the fact that in Europe and in the U.S.A. the government and banks are robbers, then voice your opinion about the great benefits of our world leaders. (That in itself should lead to great articles!)
Cheers for now!

Re-Homed Battery Chickens Showing True Leaves
Still laughing at 'Re-homed battery chickens – showing true leaves'. What next? I hear that battery hens will be outlawed as of the 1st January.
Folia Helper
WOW. I cannot believe these are the same hens. You've done a wonderful job of nursing them back to health. :)
I'm too sexy for my
too sexy for my
too sexy for my
You go girls!!
WoW! What a nice thing you did Motherhen!
Great job! I am so in awe of your efforts and dedication. Wish more people would realize that battery-farming is absolutely brutal and cruel. Kudos to you and good luck to your gorgeous girls.
Absolutely beautiful (: I had a little tear up when I saw your new pics of the ladies!
Thank you, it is a very uplifting thing to do. The most amazing thing is that the rehomed hens know exacty what worms are and how to do 'gardening' and take dirt baths, even though they have never seen the light of day or walked on anything nicer than a wire grill.
Rainy mountain is right, 'battery' cages are now 'illegal' in the EU but unfortunately the new 'enhanced' cages are not a lot better so 'free range' egg will be the kindest option, unless, of course, you fancy a few chickens of your own :)
They look so happy now! You are a hen angel!

Jason Kersey: Kent State in the Sugar Bowl would be 'a travesty'
The Oklahoman's Jason Kersey took questions from readers in today's OU Power Lunch Chat. Join our Power Lunch Chats Monday-Friday at 11 a.m. on NewsOK.com/Sports. Here's a recap of today's chat.
If Kent State sneaks into the top 16 and the BCS had a buyout policy, I am sure the Sugar Bowl would pay Kent State not to come. Your thoughts?
If that weren't against the rules, then maybe. Kent State would be the worst BCS team ever — by far. It would be a travesty if they got into the Sugar Bowl.
How many OU players will make the All Big 12 team this year?
I'd say maybe 4 or 5 at the most. Kenny Stills, possibly an offensive lineman, Tony Jefferson or Javon Harris, and maybe Landry Jones if he has another really big game.
Would OU fans even want to see OU in the Fiesta Bowl? I imagine Oregon would run like wild Ducks and score 100! Thoughts?
That would a really tough matchup, especially with the way OU's defense has played lately. As strange as it sounds because of the SEC's dominance, I think OU would have a much better chance to beat Florida.
Why is Justin Brown going back to Penn State to get his degree?
Transferring his classes back was the fastest way for him to get his degree. He would have to stay at OU for another semester to complete a degree there.
Does TCU possess the fire power in their run game to control the clock and keep the Sooner offense on the sidelines?
I don't think so. I think TCU has a good run game. The quarterback's ability to run is something that OU has had a problem with the last few weeks, but I don't think that TCU's offense is as good as the ones that OU has seen. And I don't think that TCU can keep up with Landry Jones if he has another game like he just had against OSU.
If Les Miles were to go to Arkansas, do you see Arkansas possibly beginning to consider leaving the SEC for the Big 12?
No. I don't think that's a possibility at all. I think Arkansas likes being in the SEC, and if they had a coach like Les Miles they'd have a chance to be much more competitive in the SEC. If you had a chance to be more competitive, why would you leave the best football conference?
I don't get the Stoops to TN talk. If not the NFL, I can only see Bob leaving OU for the house.
Bob Stoops would never leave OU for Tennessee. Bob Stoops' name gets linked to all sorts of jobs that he would never leave Oklahoma for. If he turned down Notre Dame and Florida, then I don't see why he would ever go to Tennessee. I think you're right, I don't see him coaching anywhere else. He'll be at OU until he retires.
Any OU recruits at the Bedlam game comment on the experience in a positive way?
I haven't talked to any of their recruits, but I would guess that Jordan Evans (linebacker from Norman North) had a great time. He got an offer after the game and has since committed to OU.
With the plethora of job openings in the FBS and more sure to come, has there been any interest expressed in Mike Stoops?
Not anything real serious that I've heard. I don't think Mike's stock is extremely high after the last couple of games. I do think that he'll have the opportunity to be a head coach again, but not this year.
How is OU men's basketball doing?
Well, they're OK. Lon Kruger still has a long way to go in this rebuilding process. There's reason to think that the team has improved over last year.

E3 Preview: End of Nations - PreviewDaniel Share-Strom, posted on 20 June 2010 / 1,827 Views
Typically, when you see the phrase 'MMO' you automatically add the suffix 'RPG'. The term has become so synonymous with instancing, grinding, and levelling up that it is hard to imagine a game where one plays with thousands of other players and isn't a role-playing game.
Trion is looking to change that with their upcoming MMORTS, End of Nations. As lead designer Steve Copland explained to us, the game is set in the not-too-distant future, when our sagging economy has finally bitten the big one, and we are in the middle of a world war. Mr. Copland went into great detail about each side's reasoning, but essentially each one thinks that they have the best solution to humanity's woes.
Here's how the game works: when the player logs in, they see their own personal board room, which gives access to social networking features and the world map. From here, they can go to their base of operations and select their loadout, which can consist of things like tanks, infantrymen, choppers, and the rest of the standard RTS fare. It is then time to go to the world map, where it is possible to view or join any match in progress. A single match can accommodate over fifty players (the final number has yet to be nailed down).
To demonstrate how these massive battles work, Mr. Copland created a battalion of tanks and entered a match. Several other players were already engaged in a heated battle, and, looking for an opening, he noticed that he had the opportunity to assault some sentry guns that were suppressing a teammate's infantry. The enemies showed us just how tactically it is necessary to think in this game, as they set fire to the forest surrounding Copland's tanks, causing them to scatter.
Eventually they took out the turrets, and turned their attention to the large wall protecting the enemy stronghold in the (now-former) USA. When we say 'large', what we really mean is 'thousands of kilometres long', so going around it wasn't really an option—it was 'bust it down' or just plain 'bust'. Unfortunately, Mr. Copland was taken down by a couple of coordinated enemy players at this point, but it was enough to really communicate the depth of the combat system in EoN.
As mentioned, Trion is really banking on this game's ability to give a new meaning to the term 'MMO', with its strategic RTS gameplay that lives in a persistent online world. Hopefully we'll soon get word of when this apocalypse will strike (a release date), but in the meantime, keep watching gamrfeed for the latest updates on End of Nations.

Matchbox Twenty keeps the customer satisfied
Rob Thomas made a promise early in Matchbox Twenty's Milwaukee set Saturday, to give the audience "the best tonight you could possibly have."
But for a significant portion of the two-hour set at the Riverside Theater, Thomas, his three Matchbox bandmates and two touring musicians didn't appear to live in the moment as much as in the past, specifically back in the late '90s and early aughts when the band's barely impactful but catchy pop rock were a resounding soundtrack of the era. »Read Full Article(6)
Kid Cudi shoots for the moon, but is slow to lift off

We'd show you what it looked like — except, strangely, Cudi is prohibiting press photography on his current tour. But essentially, he gave his Milwaukee audience of a few thousand the moon. »Read Full Article(1)

Ziggler sells WWE by making opponents look good
For the novice wrestling fan, Dolph Ziggler is a small but athletic, bleached-blond World Wrestling Entertainment performer who has made tremendous strides in a sport that has traditionally been reserved for men with hulking physiques.
At 6 feet and 208 pounds, Ziggler is no slouch, but he's not going to overpower many of his opponents, either. However, what the man nicknamed the "Show Off" can do is flat-out wrestle. »Read Full Article(2)

Boeing is projected to exceed its cost ceiling by as much as $300 million — about 6 percent — on the initial contract to develop and build Air Force aerial-refueling tankers, according to government officials
Boeing is projected to exceed its cost ceiling by as much as $300 million — about 6 percent — on the initial contract to develop and build Air Force aerial-refueling tankers, according to government officials. The jet maker will have to absorb the extra costs.
Air Force officials this month briefed congressional defense committees and Pentagon officials on the projected increase on what's now a $4.9 billion engineering, manufacturing and development contract that includes four tanker aircraft.
The contract calls for 14 more tankers to be delivered by 2017.
The $300 million projection was obtained by Bloomberg News from government officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren't authorized to comment publicly.

After the contract was awarded, Boeing revealed "that it proposed a ceiling price that is less than its actual projected cost to execute the contract," according to an Air Force statement from spokesman Lt. Col. Jack Miller. "There is no legal barrier that prohibits pursuing a below-cost proposal strategy, and Boeing's met all rules."
"Boeing is responsible for all costs over the $4.9 billion ceiling price," according to the Air Force statement.
Boeing spokesman Bill Barksdale confirmed the company projects it will exceed the $4.9 billion ceiling and is prepared to absorb the extra costs.
"We are not there yet. It's a projection," he said in a telephone interview. Barksdale declined to comment on the $300 million figure or outline when the company concluded it would exceed the ceiling.
Boeing in February beat out European Aeronautic, Defence & Space (EADS), ending an almost 10-year process for deciding who would build the new tankers. In March, EADS North America Chairman Ralph Crosby said, "What determined the outcome here was price," and he called Boeing's offer "an extremely lowball offer."
Barksdale said Boeing offered "an aggressive and responsible bid" that came with a risk the company might exceed the ceiling. "We decided to accept the risk," he said. "This was an intentional step."
"We completely understand our contractual requirement to pay above the ceiling, and we are prepared to do that," Barksdale said. "We are comfortable with how we bid. We had to be competitive."

"Skiing in Sälen" Sälen by Psife
Sälen Travel Guide: 16 reviews and 23 photos
Sälen is the largest ski area in Sweden and consists of 4 ski resorts: Lindvallen, Högfjället, Tandådalen and Hundfjället. You can buy a ski pass for all places although 1 area per day is enough. Tandådalen and Hundfjället is connected through a transportation ski lift and the ski pass is valid in both areas. Between all the areas are ski busses to bring all the skiiers from their cabins to the area of their choice.
Lindvallen has the most slopes and is the perfect place for families with children.
Högfjället is the smallest place and suited for those who which to ski for a couple of hours and then go out and enjoy themselves on nice restaurants.
Tåndådalen has some of the more challenging slopes and several fun parks.
Hundfjället has a little of everything, from Troll forest for the children to the famous "The Wall", a 45 degrees steep slope.
I've been skiing in Sälen for many years. It's the nearest large ski resort in Sweden when you live in the south of Sweden as I am. I've been tehre as a child with my parents and together with friends on more party related vacations in later years.
I've been in all the Sälen areas and they all have great skiing, good after-ski and nice lodgings.
- Pros:Great skiing, lots of slopes, great night life
- Cons:Lot's of families
- In a nutshell:Great skiing and crowded in both pubs and slopes

A wholly owned Ghanaian Construction Concern, BEDROCK VENTURES LTD has commenced construction work on a 20 hectare National Information Technology Park project worth 16.5 million Ghana Cedis to serve as a hub for ICT in the country.
The project, the first phase of which has taken off involving a land area of 7, 25 hectares is situated in the Free Zones Enclave in Tema and is being funded by the World Bank's International Development
Association and is scheduled for completion in 15 months.
The Company executing the project, Bedrock Ventures Ltd won the contract through a competitive bidding process and is acknowledged to be one of the efficient and well equipped local construction firms.
The company is reputed to have executed such projects as Ultra-modern hostel facilities for the University of Ghana, Legon, designed to accommodate 1,800 students, Water Projects funded by the Millennium Development Authority (MiDA) and a 15 storey block of offices, shops and banks in the Capital.
Managing Director of Bedrock Ventures Ltd (BVL), Courage Dogbegah told The Al-Hajj in an interview that the professional consciousness the company attaches to its projects will be replicated in the execution of this maiden ICT Park project for the country.
He said, "We have the required machinery, consultants and personnel to execute the project to meet the highest international standards and would be delivered within the stipulated time frame.
Mr. Dogbegah intimated that, "the decision to settle on BVL for the execution of the project is a clear demonstration of confidence in an indigenous company" adding that "my company will not disappoint the government and people of Ghana."
In a separate interview granted the Al-Hajj, Communications Minister, Hon. Haruna Iddrisu noted that the project has taken too long to take off and added that it would contribute substantially to the economic growth of the country.
Citing the success story of India, Mr. Haruna Iddrisu hoped that Ghana's Park will also become a multi-billion project.
He invited the private sector to come on board to develop the land area made available for the project adding that the potential is huge and would contribute to job creation and stimulate technology transfer.
Drawing from the successes of Silicon Valley of the USA, Haruna was hopeful that the ICT Park has the potential of reaching comparable heights.
He encouraged the World Bank to consider injecting additional funds to extend the project beyond the first phase and hinted that funding has been secured for a second ICT Park to be established in Cape Coast.
ICT Parks serve as nerve centres to catapult the development of information technology in a country and transform it into exporter of ICT services.
The move to establish an ICT Park in Ghana dates back to several years. The Al-Hajj's visit to the site proved that the contractor is already on site with its equipment and makeshift office ready to commence work.
The project comprises installation of external lighting, road works, associated walkways and cycle tracks, electrical and telecommunication services and associated service. There will also be several electrical substations and equipment plinths, underground water tanks, underground water hydrants and street lighting.
Air conditioning and CCTV installations with associated ducting and ventilation systems will also be installed in the facility and landscaped with grass and flowering plants.
ICT has become the prime driver of the world and Business Processing Outsourcing has become a major export for countries such as India.
Ghana with its unique geographical location and English Language as its official language can easily become one of the leading providers of BPOs in the world.
"With the discovery of oil and gas in commercial quantities as well as high economic growth rate, the potential for Ghana is huge with the ICT Park", the minister concluded.

Are the European Competition Authorities making a less anticompetitive market more anticompetitive? The Booking.com sagaJuly 8, 2015
(by Pinar Akman) There are at least seven national competition authorities in the EU alone which have recently dealt with or are currently dealing with most-favoured-customer (MFC) clauses adopted by online platforms such as Booking.com, Expedia, iBookstore, Amazon, etc. One of the most recent developments has been the acceptance of commitments offered by Booking.com to the French, Swedish and Italian competition authorities. The acceptance of the said commitments might represent at best an ineffectual solution to any problem existing on the relevant market. In the worst case scenario, the commitments may have pushed the industry from a potentially less-anticompetitive equilibrium to a potentially more-anticompetitive equilibrium.

Why harmed consumers may be more satisfied in the future – the CMA's new redress schemeJune 12, 2015

This is not the only measure that is to help consumers and other injured parties to obtain compensation for the violation of EU and UK competition law. The new sections 49C-49E of the Competition Act 1998 provide powers for the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) to approve voluntary redress schemes.

The European Damages Directive fails to deliver, but can it be fixed?March 3, 2015
(by Sebastian Peyer) The European Commission's Damages Directive[1] was recently signed into law and the Member States have been given two years to implement the rules of the Damages Directive into national law. In this blog post I argue that the Directive fails to achieve its stated goal of compensation because it does not reduce litigation costs or incentivise the bringing of costly legal actions. Instead, the Damages Directive seeks to safeguard public enforcement from private follow-on actions. It is therefore unlikely to facilitate greater levels of private enforcement. For the Damages Directive to become effective, it should be supplemented with further legislation to incentivise stand-alone actions.[2] Read the rest of this entry »
Competition Law Compliance, Leniency and Corporate Governance: Between a Rock and a Hard Place?November 26, 2014
(by Andreas Stephan). In the recent much talked about Automotive News article, 'Confessions of a Price Fixer', an anonymous Japanese car parts executive claims to have been incentivised by his firm to plead guilty to a US antitrust charge. The implication is that the firm did this to negotiate a lower fine with the US Department of Justice and possibly distract from the involvement of more senior employees. The individual, like many other Japanese executives involved in price fixing, has now served his time and is back at work with the same company. The story raises interesting questions about corporate governance; in particular firms' failure to adequately discipline employees involved in cartel activity. However, even where there is a willingness to take action, the individuals involved in the infringement may hold all the cards. Read the rest of this entry »
Is the Head of Germany's Bundeskartellamt Right to Suggest Criminal Law Sanctions are Too Severe for Cartels?November 24, 2014
(by Andreas Stephan) It has been reported by Bloomberg Businessweek that the President of the German Federal Cartel Office recently expressed doubts as to whether criminal sanctions were necessary in the fight against cartels. His comments are indicative of the diverging approaches taken by cartel enforcement regimes. They are made all the more interesting by the fact Germany is one of the most active European enforcers of criminal law against bid-rigging arrangements and a suggestion by another Bundeskartellamt official that individual sanctions should be abandoned altogether.

From the past one day I have been getting error when I try to close the Firefox 12. It happens with me all the time. The message shows:
"Firefox.exe - Application error.
Instruction at 9x6200389e referenced memory at 0x0237a33c.
The memory could not be read. Click OK to terminate the program."
I didnt do any kind of customization or modification to the System or Firefox settings. Everything is up to date either the Windows or Antivirus program. Sometimes the Firefox automatically closes following the Firefox. To check it I went to the Task manager but there it showed me 4 Firefox processes running. I killed them all manually. To verify again, I have opened the Firefox once again when Task manager still running on Desktop. The process and application showed Firefox running. When I close it, it disappears from the Application tab but in the processes tab it was still running. If I open the Firefox again, it will start with the second process whilst the first process still running. It will surely take huge system resources and it is very annoying to kill the process every time manually. Add-ons installed showing as Java was outdated & disabled. I really dont have any idea about how to troubleshoot them.
