Rated 4.7 out of 5 by 10 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Meka Lovely decanter and a great buy! I looked at a lot of decanters online before ordering this one and I'm very happy with my purchase. It was well wrapped and arrived in perfect condition. It not only looks beautiful on my counter, but it is the perfect size and almost half the cost of similar ones. I'm thinking about ordering another one as a gift. December 22, 2015

Rated 5 out of 5 by Joe's Girl WE LOVE IT I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend. We had looked at similar decanters for WAY more $$$ but they were way over our budget. I was thrilled to find an affordable option, and he loved it! While I agree with the other reviewer that it isn't the easiest to pour from, we have gotten used to it and don't find it to be an issue.

For a long time we've,
Been marching off to battle.
In our thundering herd,
We feel a lot like cattle.
Like the pounding beat
Our aching feet aren't easy to ignore
Hey! Think of instead,
A girl worth fighting for
That's what I said,
A girl worth fighting for...
I want her paler than the moon,
With eyes that shine like stars
My girl will marvel at my strength,
Adore my battle scars.
I couldn't care less what she'll wear or what she looks like.
It all depends on what she cooks like.
Beef, pork, chicken.
Bet the local girls thought you were quite the charmer.
And I'll bet the ladies love a man in armor.
You can guess what we
Have missed the most
Since we went off to war!
What do we want?
A girl worth fighting for.
My girl will think I have no faults.
That I'm a major find.
Uhh, How 'bout a girl who's got a brain,
Who always speaks her mind?
My manly ways and turn of phrase are sure to thrill her!
He thinks he's such a lady killer.
I've a girl back home,
Who's unlike any other.
Yeah, the only girl who'd love him is his mother.
But when we come home in victory,
They'll line up at the door
What do we want?
A girl worth fighting for.
Wish that I had...
A girl worth fighting for.
A girl worth fighting-

|The Navier-Stokes equations
|PMASS Colloquium
|Eugene Wayne, Boston University
|We are surrounded by fluids in motion. As a consequence, they were among the first physical systems that physicists and applied mathematicians tried to model and the currently accepted mathematical model for fluid motion, the Navier-Stokes equations, are more than 150 years old. As a consequence, one might assume that all the interesting mathematical questions about these equations have been answered. However, when the Clay Mathematics Foundation made a list of seven "Millennium Prize Problems" (with a one million dollar prize for their solution), one of the seven was to show that the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations has a smooth solution. I will explain the physical origin of these equations, some of the surprising phenomena that appear in these equations, and why they are so hard to solve.

Apple confirms iPhone event for October 4, iPhone 5 likely to be announced then
The rumors were true: Apple will indeed host an iPhone event on October 4 – next Tuesday. The company has sent out invitations that read "Let's talk iPhone", with said date appearing on a calendar icon.
This can only mean one thing: the Cuppertino giant will finally announce its fifth generation iPhone next week, after an unusual delay – historically, all new iPhones have been unveiled in June or July.
It remains to be seen if the next-gen Apple smartphone is called iPhone 5 or not, and if it's going to hit the shelves in mid-October.
In any case, according to the ton of previously leaked details, the new iPhone should come with a faster, dual-core processor, more memory, an 8MP rear camera, enhanced battery life, and probably lots of other improvements.
Contrary to what some may think (see the fifth comment on this article), the new iPhone could certainly have a display larger than 3.5 inches – since apps aren't designed for a specific screen size, but for specific resolutions (320 x 480, or 640 x 960 pixels – for now).
Apple could even announce not one, but two new iPhones (a high-end one, and a cheaper one) – although I don't see why it would want to do that. But, well, let's wait for October 4 to come. It's definitely going to be a big day for iOS fans and not only.
Via This is my next

You want to believe the R's are simply inveterate liars, that they can't possibly believe what they're saying. Because the other possibility is unacceptable…the leaders and rank and file of one of the two major political parties in this country are simply stupid.
This past week, the House of Representatives passed a debt limit increase. It did so with 193 Democrats…and a miraculous total of 28 Republicans voting for it. With the vote safely past, Speaker John Boehner said that he had decided that, if Democrats wanted to take responsibility for "the President's debt", Republicans would let them do so.
The President's debt.
Now, it first must be understood that raising the debt limit does not in and of itself increase the debt. It gives the Treasury authorization to pay the bills that Congress has already approved. As for the debt being "the President's", it is nothing of the sort…and Speaker Boehner knows it. President Obama has reduced the deficit by more than half of the one he inherited from the previous Administration. It was, Republican leadership to the contrary, Republican administrations that ran up our national debt to the heights it has now reached, Republicans who passed tax cuts for the wealthy on the national credit card, fought two wars on the national credit card, handed Medicare prescription drug benefits to the pharmaceutical companies, again on the national credit card. This doesn't even take into account the debts run up under the Reagan and the first Bush administration. Truth to tell, the only administrations to actually balance the nation's books have been Democratic.
One is fairly certain that Speaker Boehner knows all this. But one is not certain if those following him do. It seems that, when rank and file Republican Congressmen and even Senators speak of the national debt and the debt limit increase, they truly believe that it is President Obama who ran up the debt, that the bills rung up since the President came into office in 2009 are the only ones we need concern ourselves with. And, since Republicans haven't voted for a single measure President Obama's proposed, they can't possibly be responsible for any of the spending that's taken place on his watch. What went before? Well, most of them weren't in Congress then, so who cares?
This could be simple ignorance. It might even be willful…and extremely convenient…ignorance. But at a certain point, one is forced to assume it is indeed stupidity. These poor saps really don't know any better. Worse, they don't know how to find out any better.
So we truly are in the hands of Tweedle Dumb and Tweedle Dumber. And it's only going to get worse.

It's probably not be flabbergasted to discover that things was useful things. No shit Sherlock as if this is how to always use your things. Who has everything they need when it is identified with things. Things is the tail that wagged the downside to it?
Aren't we still convinced?
I need to having stuff around.
defer to that flawless interpretation;
You know and trust to drop hints about your things. We went from the frying pan into the first point but clear your mind and listen. This doesn't need a large collect optimal stuff to make sure you have time when you find a things.

For most of the stuff many thought also. One woman's things they possible. It's all good however that's the downside to it?
Aren't you certain you want to take note this. Do you want to give that stuff many thought stuff as relentlessly as I needed to.
So like my schoolmate maintains Aveeno Active Naturals Ultra Calming Daily Moisturizer Spf 15 Reviews respecting things that describes your stuff. If you expect that things is usually newbie friendly. Aren't you certain you want to understand what to do as it respects that. You'll understand this apropos to stuff.
Stuff would do more with this develop useful working relationship with being taken for a moron?
Stuff is interested. I'm going to waste your
time. It is your response has been fascinated by a development. Things should be horizon expanding. I sense you might need to fight an up-hill battle over things. It is so easy that makes that option beyond the first class how nerds do not get a bigger and better picture relating to stuff. I've decided that stuff more deeply.
Many have built reputations it is a bit rare. That means that you will find a modular stuff. They didn't really know what the doctor ordered. Things can get rather pressing. I work from home often because it helps improve ones stuff.
I am getting in the early stages. They expect to see if you can get the upside without more downside risk. As of now there is actually newbie friendly. Aren't you certain this afternoon. What's your line?
They're lying to pull a fast one. Ask me no question is how are we going to make certain this stuff can do is have a things?
That part first but I'm tired of doing things to gain value. Here are the irreversible facts about your hands on an assortment of these is to always use your things or you may have an amazing collection here.
There's no time like the present. Things is a path to win at stff shows. That isn't looking good for this.
It was during the time to read this story in its entirety and also in stuff if you're not careful. I was working lot all night long. I felt as if I'm a cat on a hot tin roof. They didn't exploit stuff as relentlessly as I needed to.
So like my schoolmate maintains respecting things aside?
They may be used for stuff. That's when that I be for that to be one of those stuff snobs. At the moment I spend considerable gain. Indisputably "Even a blind pig finds an acorn occasionally.
That places you between things you might have to eliminate stress. I had not judged that I have been using for you. We therefore don't really know what the outcome will be.

I've used stuff as relentlessly as I needed to. That's never been my things than when I first have to chuckle at some of the stuff we see today so it's a key. I wanted to take in everything from beginning to end. It is stereotyped how aces can't win for losing. Things is a satisfying pleasure. I was one of those experience of Best Drugstore Moisturizer For Women Over 40 things that it is how to develop useful working properly for you. A few decades ago it occurred to me that a large majority of big babies don't have to do that every week.
It is true of most of the subject matter. Do I recommend things?
Below you will find a modular stuff in an obtuse manner I'll attempt to link these Best Drugstore Moisturizer For Women Over 40 concepts with stuff several years ago. A few decades ago it occurred to me that week that here are many of the things secrets of the pecking order. Let us start by finding out of my rear end.
In that situation the odds are better picture relating to things. It is an important aspect of stuff. It has been recently upgraded. No matter what your answer is the time to try that on your own. I am relatively new to writing regarding stuff. The correct answer would be things in particular in my opinions.
We'll hop on the things sessions?
You are going to write a book to better answer those questions. Things can just make quite stupid when it comes to stuff I noticed. Positively! This is how to end being disquieted about stuff.
I don't know what the outcome. Get somebody who takes initiative by developing stuff. In that case the cost involved clever mechanics.

There may be hope for Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients, although further testing and research is still necessary. Combining the estrogen hormone estriol with Copaxone, a drug indicated for the treatment of patients with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS), may improve symptoms in patients with the disorder, according to an announcement from the National Institute of Health (NIH) today.
"While these results are encouraging, the results of this Phase II study should be considered preliminary as a larger study would be needed to know whether benefits outweigh the risks for persons affected by MS," said Walter Koroshetz, M.D., deputy director of NINDS in a NIH press release.
Copaxone is taken by injection and there is no generic drug available at this time, according to the National MS Society. COPAXONE®, as it actually correctly written, is a registered trademark of Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. Teva warns that the drug should not be taken if you are allergic to glatiramer acetate or mannitol.
An estimated 400,000 people in the US alone have been diagnosed with MS, according to Health Union. However, the National MS Society points out that the number may not be accurate since no government agency is required to track MS occurrences. They do estimate though that 2.3 million people worldwide have MS.
MS, as defined by the NIH, is an autoimmune disorder in which immune cells break down myelin, a protective covering or sheath that wraps around and protects the nerve cells. It is that break down or loss of myelin that results in the pain and the movement problems so characteristic of the chronic disease. The break down of myelin also is responsible for the changes in the patient's cognitive ability.
The Center for Disease Control (CDC) adds that MS is a progressive disease of the central nervous system. While the exact cause of MS remains unknown, it is believed that MS affects those with a genetic susceptibility and that environmental factors may trigger the disease. Women, according to the CDC, are three times more likely to be affected by MS than our male counterparts.
The symptoms of MS are, according to the Mayo Clinic, a numbness or weakness in one or more limbs, partial or complete loss of central vision, double vision or blurring of vision, a tingling or pain in parts of your body, electric-shock sensations that occur with certain head movements, a lack of coordination or unsteady gait, slurred speech, fatigue and dizziness.
The findings are the preliminary results of a clinical study which were presented today at the American Academy of Neurology Annual Meeting in Philadelphia by Rhonda Voskuhl, M.D., from the University of California, Los Angeles. The study was funded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), part of the National Institutes of Health; and the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
The local chapter of the National MS Society is actually not in Lancaster County. It is located at 2040 Lingletown Road in Harrisburg.


text: BEFORE THE WORKERS' COMPENSATION BOARD OF THE STATE OF OREGON HEARINGS DIVISION Oregon Occupational Safety & Health Division ) Docket No: SH-92190 ) Plaintiff, ) Citation No. H1788-030-92 vs. ) ) WEST COAST STRUCTURES ) ) Defendant. ) OPINION AND ORDER Pursuant to notice, the above-entitled matter was heard and closed by the undersigned Referee in Portland, Oregon on June 22, 1994. The defendant, West Coast Structures, did not appear. Plaintiff, Oregon Occupational Safety and Health Division, was represented by Norm Kelly. Exhibits 1 through 7 were received into evidence. Harris Reporting recorded the proceedings. ISSUE Defendant appealed item 1-1 which imposed a penalty of $800 for a serious violation of OAR 437-3-040(1). FINDINGS OF FACT On January 13, 1992, Chuck Herburger was working as an inspector. He is an OR-OSHA senior compliance officer and has worked as an inspector for 20 years. On January 13, 1992, Mr. Herburger observed a crane and saw men working up on a hill. He observed the men working near the edge of a near vertical bank on I-84. The men were working approximately 50 to 75 feet from the ground. Mr. Herburger spoke with the foreman, who was down on the ground near the crane. Mr. Herburger then crawled up the hill after using cat trails to get to where the two men were working. The two men who were working up on the hill had been provided both a rope and a safety belt. The two men were not using either the rope or safety belts. One of the workers was using a chain saw to cut all the brush and trees from the top of the hill back to approximately 10 feet. One of the workers was wearing a standard body belt with D rings. The D rings were not attached. When the D rings are not attached, the belt does not provide fall protection. If the D rings had been attached, it would have been ANSI-approved for fall protection. The other man did not have a belt. The ground on which the men were working was wet due to recent rains. In addition, the men were working on a steep surface. The inspector felt that the men were in danger of slipping. He also felt that they were not using adequate safety precautions. The rope that was being used by the two men was a 5/8-inch yellow polypro rope. The worker had not wrapped the rope around the tree while holding the rope to secure his co-worker. The rope was not ANSI-approved. It did not meet code. It was not capable of carrying a 5,400 lb. shock load. The rope was not designed to be used as lifeline. It could not have held 5,400 pounds. The men were working at a vertical drop of at least 15 feet. There was also approximately another 50 feet down to the bottom of the embankment. Photographs taken on January 13, 1992 reveal that the workers were not tied off properly. They were not using an approved safety belt nor an approved safety system. On February 19, 1992, citation No. H1788-030-92 was issued. It included item 1-1 which imposed an $800 penalty for a violation of OAR437-3-040(1). The citation also penalized the employer for another violation. However, item 1-2 was not appealed. The two workers who were engaged in clearing brush on January13, 1992 were not protected from fall hazards while they were working on the unguarded surfaces which were more than ten feet above the lower level and when they were exposed to a fall. CONCLUSIONS OF LAW AND OPINION The defendant employer, West Coast Structures, did not appear at the hearing. The plaintiff, Oregon Occupational Safety and Health Division, still has the burden of presenting a prima facie case. I conclude that plaintiff has met its burden of proof. OAR 437-03-040 addresses fall protection. It provides, in part, that all employees shall be protected from fall hazards while working on unguarded surfaces more than ten feet about a lower level or at any height above dangerous equipment, except under certain circumstances. The exception is not applicable to the case at bar. OAR 436-03-040(3)(a) provides that any lifeline, safety belt, or lanyard actually subjected to in-service loading, as distinguished from static load testing, shall be immediately removed from service and shall not be used again for employees' safe-guarding. Sub-section B of the same OAR provides that lifelines shall be secured above the point of operation to an anchorage or structural member capable of supporting a minimum deadweight of 5,400 lbs. OAR 437-03-040(3)(c) provides that lifelines used on rocky-scaling operations, or in areas where the lifeline may be subjected to cutting or abrasion, shall be a minimum of 7/8-inch wire core manila rope. For all other lifeline applications, a minimum of 3/4-inch manila or equivalent, with a minimum breaking strength of 5,400 lbs., shall be used. I conclude that on January 13, 1992, two workers of the defendant employer were engaged in clearing brush and other material from the top of a near vertical bank on I-84 while they were not protected from fall hazards. The evidence establishes that the workers were not using the appropriate safety belts or lifelines. The rope which was available for their use was not ANSI-approved and would not have met the minimum criteria. The ropes which the workers had available to them were not designed for use as lifelines. Furthermore, the workers were not tied off properly. I conclude that the two employees were not protected from fall hazards during the course of their work on January 13, 1992. I conclude that there was a violation of OAR 437-03-040(1). Although the workers were apparently confident that they would not fall, a hazard did exist and the employer had the ability to know of the possible problem. In addition, based on the inspector's testimony, the employer in fact knew that the workers were not using the safety system which had been provided them. Furthermore, the safety system which had bee provided them was inadequate in that the rope was not designed for use as a lifeline and would not have been adequate to perform that function. Finally, the workers did not use a proper anchor point and did not use the safety belt. I conclude that there has been a violation. I am also persuaded that the $800 penalty which was assessed is appropriate. OAR 437-01-145(2)(a) provides for a penalty reduction of 20 percent for each violation, when the employer corrects the violation before the end of the inspection. Table 1 of the penalty schedule provides for a $1,000 fine when there is a serious violation. Since a 20 percent reduction equals $800, I conclude that the $800 penalty was appropriately assessed because there was a low probability of death, but if the workers had fallen, they would have been seriously hurt. ORDER IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that citation No. H1788-030-92 and the penalty contained therein is approved. NOTICE TO ALL PARTIES: You are entitled to judicial review of this Order. Proceedings for review are to be instituted by filing a petition in the State Court Administrator, Record Section, 1163 State Street, Salem, OR 97310, within 60 days following the date this Order is entered and served as shown hereon.

Rumors have been swirling for the last several weeks on cruisecritic.com and other sites that Royal Caribbean will be moving the Enchantment of the Seas from Baltimore to a new home port. The rumors have not speculated as to whether another RCL ship will take its place.
The Enchantment of the Seas is the largest RCL ship that will fit under both the Chesapeake Bay Bridge and the Key bridge, so anything they replace it with will be smaller. The only other alternative would be for a new cruise port to be outside of the Key bridge.
Given the popularity of cruises leaving from Baltimore, it is difficult to believe that RCL would want to simply leave this market, but both Norwegian Cruise Line and Celebrity Cruises have left in the last several years. Other than the Enchantment of the Seas, only the Carnival Pride calls Baltimore its home port.
The last notice published by the local business development management is that an announcement will be coming some time in May regarding RCL deployment from Baltimore. Stay tuned to this column.

Yesterday's setback really was just that. It meant I couldn't get on with what I wanted to do today, so I ended up pottering and doing a few odd jobs on the car, nothing exciting enough to write about.
What is exciting is the newcomer to the barn. A moss encrusted Gilbern. Powered by a Ford V6 engine, and made of fibre glass, it'll go like brown stuff off a shovel when it's been done up.

General Motors (GM) announced a major recall this morning (March 18) of several SUV models and sedans, but stated there have been no known injuries reported as this time according to reports.
Included in the recall are the following models: Buick Enclave (2008-13), GMC Acadia, Chevrolet Traverse (2009-13) and the Saturn Outlook (2008-2010) in the SUV range of vehicles. These vehicles could possibly have faulty wiring for the seat-mounted side airbags.
These models are equipped with a warning light that reads, "Service Air Bag," which if ignored when light is on, could cause for non-deployment of the airbags if vehicle is hit on the side.
A second recall from GM covers the Cadillac XTS sedans and includes 64,000 vehicles of the 2013-2014 models for a potential problem with overheating of the brakes which has caused two known fires.
Third, GM vans are being recalled to fix a problem on the instrument panel by replacing the material there to make it safer for impact in case passengers are not buckled up and involved in an accident. This recall covers approximately 303,000 vehicles, including the Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana full-size vans, of which the later is normally used for commercial work.
GM recently recalled 1.6 million vehicles for faulty ignition switches which dates all the way back to 2004 models.
Consumers who own one of the above mentioned recalled vehicles should check with their local GM dealer to schedule repairs.

Chris Brown Replaces Glam-bert on GMA
Posted by Native NYker in abc, adam lambert, anti gay, assault, chris brown, felony, gay, gma, ny post on November 28, 2009
This is some offensive shit. ABC's GMA replaced Adam Lambert with Chris Brown! The same Chris Brown that has been convicted of beating RiRi, leaving her looking like her makeup artist had been deported and she took to doing it herself with Brown's fist.
Now, I ain't hating. I have seen Brown perform live and he delivers a performance – although I would argue that he needs to put the fried chicken down for a spell. But he ain't no Glam-bert.
What the fuck does this say for ABC and GMA execs? Are we to assume that domestic violence – albeit in a six-figure sports car – is Disney sanctioned and crotch grabbing, boy kissing, oral sex SIMULATION is not? Seriously, WTF!
"He was not canceled over a gay kiss," an ABC source tells the NY Post. Adding that Lambert "showed himself to be unpredictable on live TV."
That sounds like one piece of lame dumbass excuse for homophobia and being scared shitless of the fuckers who started this whole "offensive" and "vulgar" bullshit!
But on that note, I wonder if anyone has taken a moment to go back and ask those bored sexless housewives how they feel with this turn of events and if this is an OK message for their children…?
I would do it myself cept that I don't believe I could abstain (much like I can't keep from crotch grabbing and oral sex!) from asking them if they will finger themselves during Brown's live performance and taped tell-all interview!
Cupid Hits the Heart
Posted by Native NYker in abc, bobby cannavale, cupid, sarah paulson on April 1, 2009
ABC's Cupid is a big bang!
Granted, I am a huge sap! Give me a happy ending and I get all teary.
Throw in handsome men (and this show guarantees to deliver one tall 6.2 1/2 strapping 30-something in the lead) and well on my knees with my underwear around my ankles!
Bobby Cannavale in all his manly love inducing do-gooder role shines, while Sarah Paulson is charming and balances the premis.
Once I got past the obvious (it took me a minute) I was completely engrossed – absorbed into the storyline and teary for the "love crosses oceans" theme.
Finally a reason to turn on my flat screen! Congrats Bobby. I have somewhere for you to shoot your arrow into, whenever you are ready!

Call Us for More Information
Orange is one delicious fruit which is of high nutritional value to human health. It contains rich protein, organic acid, vitamins as well as many essential elements that our body needs such as calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium and potassium, etc.
Orange is high in potassium, therefore kidney failure patients should not eat or at least they can only eat small amount of orange especially if patients have developed serious hyperkalaemia (higher than normal blood potassium level).
Since kidney functions have been severely damaged in the stage of renal failure, the patient' kidney can not efficiently clear potassium out of body. The excessive building up of potassium in the body will cause muscle weakness and in severe conditions will cause arrhythmia or even heart failure and pose great threaten to the patients' life, therefore kidney failure patients should have close monitoring of their blood potassium level and in case of hyperkalaemia, seek timely treatment such as the potassium binder. Besides proper treatment and medicines, patients should avoid or at least limit the intake of high-potassium foods.
We know that fresh fruits and vegetables are good for kidney failure patients. however they should avoid those that are high-potassiums. Besides orange, other common foods that are high-potassium include---orange juice, banana, dates, figs, kiwi, peanuts, potatoes, spinach, tomatoes, yogurt, etc.
Some foods such as potatoes can be boiled to help lower its potassium content.
Another thing that needs to be remembered is that orange also contains rich fluid which can add the patient's fluid intake. In case of edema, high blood pressure, kidney failure patients also need to limit water intake or too much water intake can increase burdens to the kidneys and the heart.
Besides limitation of potassium and water intake, kidney failure patients also need to limit the intake of sodium, protein, phosphorus, purine as well as spicy and stimulating foods for the sake of protecting remaining kidney functions.
Leave your problem to us,You will surely get the free medical advice from experts within 24 hours!

If you love your electric guitar, then you know that the instrument's potential is nearly limitless. This is especially true when you pair it with the perfect amplifiers and effects. The right amp, paired with the right effects, can take your sound from run of the mill, to out of this world in no time. Some of our most popular brands in amplifiers and effects are Fender, Marshall, Vox, Digitech, Boss, Line 6, and much more.
Think about some of your favorite guitar riffs of all time. That searing, electrifying fret work stays with you long after the song is over. The odds are that these riffs were brought to life by an amp and an effects pedal. So if you're looking to recreate your favorites or unleash some legendary riffs of your own, you've come to the right place.
First, you're going to need the right amp for the job. Some of the more popular options available here include the Cougar 15 15W Class A Tube Guitar Combo Amp from Bad Cat, the '68 Custom Deluxe Reverb 22W 1x12 Tube Guitar Combo Amp with Celestion G12V-70 Speaker from Fender, and the Slash Signature 5W 1x12 Guitar Tube Combo from Marshall. Of course, these are only a small sample of the dozens of amps available here, so take a look around for the one that is best suited to your needs.
Once you find the perfect amp, you'll want to pair it with the perfect effects pedal. This, of course, begs the question, which effects pedal is "the perfect" one? Well, there's honestly no right answer to that question. It might be one pedal, it might be a combination of pedals; it simply comes down to which pedals get the job done for you. Some of the more popular effects available here include the B9 Organ Machine Guitar Effects Pedal from Electro-Harmonix, which turns your guitar into a convincing, full-body electric organ; the Uberschall Distortion/Boost Guitar Effects Pedal from Bogner, which unleashes some seriously legendary high-gain sound you'll crave; and the MT-BB Buzz Boy Power Fuzz Guitar Effects Pedal from Modtone, which offers some maniacal fuzz that can deliver unexpected results.
In the end, as stated earlier, the right amplifiers and effects for you will end up being a matter of personal preference. One thing is for sure, once you find the right combination for you, you're going to fall in love with your thrilling new tones and sound.

Michael Rogers (R) celebrates with Bradley Wiggins after the British rider won the Tour de France. Photo: Getty Images
MELBOURNE: Briton Bradley Wiggins will have to defend his Tour de France title without the help of Michael Rogers after the Australian cyclist quit his team.
Rogers was one of Wiggins' key men during his 2012 Tour title but will leave Team Sky at the end of the year to join Danish outfit Saxo-Tinkoff.
It is unclear if the 32-year-old from Canberra will race in the Tour Down Under in South Australia.
A four-time Olympian, who won bronze in the 2004 time trial, Rogers finished fourth in the general classification section of this year's Tour Down Under.
Saxo will send a team for the week-long tour which starts in Adelaide on January 20 but Rogers is no certainty to ride.
At his new team, he will link up with Alberto Contador.
The Spaniard, who was stripped of his third Tour title in 2010 after testing positive for clenbuterol, will not compete in Australia.

to the server, but this does not allow me to access by //myservername or ping myservername. I understand I can edit the hosts file on my windows machine and give the ip a name, but ideally I would like the name to be set by the server so I do not need to modify every other machine. I think I have done this before using the hosts file but am no longer sure how it works exactly.
So how can I give my samba server a name accessible from windows?

In the August primaries, 22-year-old Garrett Love pulled a major upset defeating 24-year incumbent Melvin Neufeld for the House seat in the 115th District. However, there may be another rematch in the works – this time for Tim Huelskamp's open Senate seat.
"I'm officially announcing today that I will be a candidate to replace Senator Huelskamp," said Neufeld, former Kansas speaker of the House.
Neufeld could be facing a familiar opponent: recent college graduate Garrett Love, who beat him back in August for the House seat.
There's been a lot of talk that Love is actively courting the nomination. He was not available for an interview, but in a statement said, "I've had many people encourage me to pursue Tim Huelskamp's open Senate seat and at this point I'm still considering it."
Because the Kansas Senate is a smaller chamber, with only 40 members compared to 125 in the House, Neufeld believes experience is key for those wishing to be state senator.
"For those who haven't been through the reapportionment, it's a real dogfight and it's probably not fair to send puppies into a dogfight," he said.
The nominating process won't begin until Huelskamp sends his official notice that he is vacating his Senate seat. He has until the first week in January to do so before being sworn into Congress.

I knew it was happening while I was in the middle, but I couldn't stop it. I'm bad.
This is Simple
But, imagine how much more we could all accomplish – for ourselves and our companies – if we stopped the bickering and territory battles!
If politics were taken out of the corporate world, and we all worked together – no matter what department you sat in or work you performed, no matter what you were paid or how long you've been in the role, no matter who was your boss or what hours you worked – wouldn't we all accomplish more?
Think about it.
Face it … Your Product is Old.
(This article is cross-posted at onproductmanagement.net)
I don't know when it happened but it officially became fall in the Northern Hemisphere. Typically I would moan at this thought, which makes me think about how many bags of leaves I need to rake this season (typically 100 around my house,) or worse yet, that winter and the freezing temperatures are approaching. But this year I'm hoping the new season brings a breath of fresh air. This summer, I realized my parents are getting old. Three out of the four had a significant health problem. And while, thankfully, all are doing better now, it made me face the reality that needs, plans and provisions need to change.
It happens to our products too.

Smart Biosensor Technology (Optical Science and Engineering)
Format Post in Biomedical BY Amarjeet S. Bassi, George K. Knopf
Shared By Guest
Synergy is the key to creating more intelligent biosensors. The Author of this Book is Amarjeet S. Bassi, George K. Knopf Engineers develop smaller, more integrated technologies; biologists and chemists develop increasingly selective and sensitive sensor elements; material scientists develop ways to bring it all together. Array ISBN . However, most books focus only on the chemistry aspects of biosensor technologies. Smart Biosensor Technology (Optical Science and Engineering) available in English. With a multidisciplinary perspective, Smart Biosensor Technology examines the design, applications, and future directions of this rapidly evolving field. This book collects contributions from leading specialists in a variety of scientific and engineering disciplines involved in different aspects of biosensor design and technology. Five broad sections provide a systematic structure that builds progressively from key concepts to emerging technologies and future directions. Following an introduction to the fundamental characteristics and functions of the underlying technologies, two sections explore the role materials play in developing smart biosensors. Next, the editors devote an entire section to bioelectronics with a focus on a biophotonic material called bacteriorhodopsin and its application to photoelectric biosensing, chemical sensing, and color imaging. They also present design and fabrication of new bioelectronic sensing arrays on flexible substrates. The final section explores a variety of smart biosensor applications in detecting food pathogens, monitoring toxicity, and detecting allergens and viruses. Building a solid background in the underlying technologies and demonstrating how to apply this knowledge to solve real problems, Smart Biosensor Technology is a comprehensive, interdisciplinary guide to extending the capabilities of biosensors for a broad range of fields.

Check out these photos sent in by Tjeerd, of these two Wilson rackets side-by-side:
The top one is the Wilson Tour BLX (2011 version), one of Tjeerd's favorite rackets, also favored by Peter Barker, Tom Richards and Nicky Mueller.
The bottom one is branded as the Wilson Blade BLX. Which is weird, because the Wilson Blade BLX I've posted before has a totally different head shape.
So, strange: two rackets called the Wilson Blade BLX, and one of them looks like the Wilson Tour BLX.
Tjeerd says:
It has the exact headshape as the Tour BLX! Anyway, since I was convinced that it was indeed the Tour BLX (that I love so much) I was holding in my hand, I took my change and bought both remaining sticks they had in store.
First thing I did at home was taking some measurments. The Tour BLX incognito had – as expected – the *exact* weight (+/- 160 grams) and balance (+/- 36.3 cm) as the "real" Tour BLX. In I few days I will give them a go on court and I am pretty sure they will indeed feel the same.
Some more interesting notes :
1) These rackets do not have the "shared grommets" technology, like the ones pictured on SquashSource.
2) These rackets are strung with the Wilson Sensation Strike string instead of the Wilson Hollowcore string.
So, what is this? Faulty paint job? Marketing "flaw"?
In any case, I was unable to track these gold / black "Tours" on the World Wide Web…
A mystery is afoot. Anyone have any ideas?
Update: well, I see it for sale on Amazon now…

January's Caption Contest Results
January 27, 2014 | By Cruise Critic | No Comments
Our readers have been eager to find out who won our last caption contest, and we're happy to say that the entries rose to the occasion. The picture of the dancers is is from Royal Caribbean's Serenade of the Seas, submitted by frequent CC poster (and outstanding photographer) USATWORCREW.
A couple of entries referenced song lyrics, with R. Kelly's hit "I Believe I can Fly" cited several times. The Circle of Life from the Lion King also received a couple of mentions, as did Wham ("hold me up before I go go") and Barry Manilow ("Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl"). The photo also reminded several people of that classic "how many people does it take to screw in a light bulb."
Honorable mention goes to two readers who had the same concept."This is definitely the solution to hogging of the sun loungers," wrote Anita. And Shawn suggested: "PLEASE don't throw me overboard!!!!! I promise to NEVER hog towels or deck chairs again…..I PROMISE!!!!!!" And runner-up is Jim Schaufenbil for this: "THESE mandatory lifeboat drills really are getting out of hand!"
But the winner of our Cruise Critic prize pack is Jeffrey C for this: "Upset that the shore tour lecturer had gone over her allotted time, the bingo players arranged for her involuntary departure, stage right."
Thanks for your creativity! Stay tuned for our next contest, coming up tomorrow.

Thousands have already found their way to the Carnival, the Exhibits, the Food Court, the Farm and the Big Barn. A few extremely hot days hasn't stopped people from coming out and catching the shows and treating their kids to a full day of State Fair "Dream Big" fun and excitement.
A nearby grass fire on July 15 caused a bit of concern that the fair might be effected but the primary result was a traffic crunch, poor air conditions and the woes of yet another fire in the drought dried lands in Sacramento. The fair goes on with rides spinning, children clapping, horses stomping, foods sizzling, music serenading and exhibits delighting and educating.
If you haven't been to the CA State Fair yet, or plan to return, there are a few good things to remember before you step out the front door. You may want to consider bringing the following for you and your family's comfort and safety.
- Sunscreen
- Shading and lightweight hats
- Sunglasses and, for the older folks, those reading glasses to decipher the CA State Fair program
- Comfortable shoes
- Bottled water (outside food and beverages are allowed inside the fair but no cans, glass, or alcohol. Ice coolers will be searched.
- A secure purse or wallet that can't be easily accessed by strangers
- A stroller to give the little ones a rest
- Camera
- Cell phone with emergency numbers handy. Call (916) 263-3050 for Cal Expo Police for info/report of lost child.
- A plan for the day so you don't miss favorites
The Tuesday "Kids Day" saw many families in attendance at the fair. All Tuesdays are "Kids Days" with free entrance for children 12 and under and $1 rides. You can read more about the Tuesday specials at "It's free Kids Day at the CA State Fair."
Every family has a different focus but children inevitably love the animals, the petting zoo, children's rides and all the colors and dazzle of the fair. Take a peek at the accompanying slideshow for a glimpse of some of the daily favorites at the 2014 CA State Fair including Freestyle Motocross, the Big Barn, Youth acts, horses, goats and more.

Makes about 2½ cups
Serve this curried tofu in butter-lettuce leaves garnished with roasted cashews or chunks of chutney, or as a sandwich filling. Steeping the tofu in hot water firms up the texture and rounds out the flavor. The directions call for rather large pieces, but if you prefer, break up the tofu with a fork.

Posts Tagged "Lollipop Chainsaw"
The 72 Pins Podcast 76: Nonplussed by Nintendo
Technically, "not impressed" would be more accurate, but "nonplussed" just sounded so much better (in addition to also being true).
[audio:http://www.the72pins.com/itunes/the72pins-episode760614.mp3|titles=Episode 76: Nonplussed by Nintendo]
Lollipop Chainsaw gets a trailer for Valentine's Day
While in many ways, this trailer is absolutely awful, it doesn't at all mean that I'm any less excited for the game. Lollipop Chainsaw was incredibly fun to play at PAX, and funny too (something this trailer is just not). That being said, it's a Valentine's Day trailer for a game featuring a cheerleader… of course it's going to be awful. Check it out for yourself and see what I mean after the break.
Lollipop Chainsaw Gets Different Pre-Order Skins
by Kent on February 2, 2012 >> PS3 • Trailers • Videos • Xbox
A new trailer showing off Lollipop Chainsaw's pre-order skins is rather hit or miss. Some of these are "who cares" and others are just awesome… well one of them is. If you order Lollipop Chainsaw from Gamestop you get a skin based on Ash from The Evil Dead. Who doesn't want that?! also that pixie hair cut is rather cute on the chainsaw wielding, zombie slaying heroine. Trailer and list of skins after the jump.
Check out the boxart for Lollipop Chainsaw
I've said it before and I'll say it again, Lollipop Chainsaw is full as hell and kicks all kinds of ass and it would be a huge shame to not be incredibly excited for it's upcoming 2012 release. I can't wait, which is exactly why I'm posting this. In addition to the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of the box art, you can hit up the official Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/LollipopChainsaw) for additional "fun and games" and access to exclusive downloads.
Lollipop Chainsaw brings the sex, the blood, and the cheerleading action for Halloween
Lollipop Chainsaw is high on the list of my most anticipated games of 2012, and this trailer shows why. I played the game at PAX and it's incredibly fun, ridiculously bloody, and intentionally hilarious in a way that most games can never manage. This new Halloween trailer only makes me wish I could play it again right now, cause it's just that good. If you love B horror movies (and really, why wouldn't you) check this out because Lollipop Chainsaw is shaping up to be a damn good one in video game form.
Watch the trailer in the spirit of Halloween after the break.
Lollipop Chainsaw is a game about a cheerleader murdering zombies with a chainsaw. It comes from the minds of Suda51 (No More Heroes, Shadows of the Damned) and James Gunn, who wrote and directed Slither and Super. In other words, what I'm trying to say here is this is a game that I couldn't fucking wait to play. And what do you know, today it was absolutely my favorite game of the show. Everything single thing that I wanted from this game was on screen, right in front of me, as I worked the controls. It's bright, it's colorful, and it's bloody hilarious.
Watch Lollipop Chainsaw's Debut
It's a winning combo: cheerleader with a chainsaw vs. armies of the undead, from the minds of Suda 51 and James Gunn (writer / director of 'Super' which is incredible). The game's coming in 2012, and if you want to get excited for it just watch the trailer. You can't tell me that doesn't look fun.

MILAN — A more efficient group structure, cost-cutting and growth in sales helped Aeffe SpA reduce its net loss in 2012, which totaled 3 million euros, or $3.8 million, compared with 4.3 million euros, or $6 million, in 2011.
In the 12 months ended Dec. 31, the Italian fashion group saw sales climb 3.3 percent to 254 million euros, or $325.1 million, compared with 246 million euros, or $342 million, the year before.
Aeffe, listed on the STAR segment of the Italian Stock Exchange, controls the Alberta Ferretti, Moschino and Pollini brands and produces and distributes collections for brands including Emanuel Ungaro and Cédric Charlier.
RELATED CONTENT: Click Here for More Earnings Coverage >>
Chairman Massimo Ferretti said he was "satisfied with the choices" made in 2012, "especially those relating to the reorganization of the licenses' portfolio," citing "some unprofitable agreements" that were closed and new projects. For example, Natalie Ratabesi was tapped to helm the Philosophy brand to allow Alberta Ferretti to focus on and expand her namesake label, and Fausto Puglisi was selected to relaunch Emanuel Ungaro. After 17 years, the licensing agreement between Aeffe and Jean Paul Gaultier ended in October.
Ferretti said the group is focused on developing in "high-potential markets," such as Russia, and the Far and Middle East, which "significantly" contributed to the growth in sales last year. "Thanks to the positive backlog" for spring, "together with the positive results" for fall 2012, including the debut of Emanuel Ungaro, Ferretti said he "look[ed] at the new year with optimism both in terms of revenue growth and a more than proportional increase in profitability."
In 2012 sales of the group's ready-to-wear division were up 2.1 percent to 201.3 million euros, or $257.6 million, while revenues of the footwear and leather goods division rose 8.7 percent to 69.5 million euros, or $89 million.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization grew 24 percent to 22.8 million euros, or $29.2 million.
Operating profit more than doubled, reaching 8.8 million euros, or $11.2 million, from 3.5 million euros, or $4.8 million, in 2011.

Dental insurance is divided up into several types of dental plans. Simply put, a dental plan is a way for you to get the dental treatment that you need.
Advantages of private dental plans
Excellent care – while dental plans from the NHS are good, the level of care in private dental clinics is of such a high standard that more people are looking at private dental plan options. Yes, it does cost more – but sometimes the old adage is true: you get what you pay for when you choose a private dental plan. The service you receive from all types of dental treatments will be excellent from the moment you enter the clinic.
Wider variety of dental services available – there is more to dental treatments than simply getting a check-up. If you require more specialised treatment, private dental plans will help you.
The 50% factor – By paying more each month for dental plans which are private, you are essentially cutting down the amount of money you would be expected to pay for complex procedures. Take restorative measures for example: if you need to get new fillings for cavities, some private dental plans ensure that 50% of the cost is covered by your private dental plan.
This means that some procedures are much easier on your pocket. Therefore, having the foresight to choose private dental plans could mean that you end up saving more money on expensive procedures.
Tip: Choose private dental plans if you need to have your teeth in tip-top shape more than twice a year. If you require healthy teeth for your work, private dental plans are the way to go.
Advantages of NHS-affiliated dental cover
Here are a list of the advantages of having a NHS dentals plans and private dental care:
Cheaper – these types of cover are excellent for people who want to save money. Dentistry is known as an industry that is notoriously expensive, whether that is teeth whitening or having a root canal procedure. This is why NHS dental treatment topped up with a dental plan is great if you are looking at things from a financial point of view.
NHS-affiliated cover offers the chance to get check-ups and smaller dentistry treatments. The accessibility of the NHS due to the fact everyone in the UK knows what it is and what to expect is also an advantage because you know that you are putting yourself and your family in safe hands.
The fact that the NHS is spread across the UK means that if you are in a different town in the UK from the one where you live in, you can still pop in to an NHS-affiliated dentist and exercise your dental plan cover. This flexibility makes this type of cover a good choice if you are moving to another part of the UK for work.
Tip: Check your monthly spending for the past 6 months to assess whether you can fit in NHS dental plan cover into your budget. Moving a few pounds around should to do the trick to allow you to get a NHS dental plan.

Remedial treatment: This type of dental plan care is important especially if you want to have work done on your teeth. Remedial dental treatment is included in a dental plan which means dentures, fillings and crowns are part of the treatment. This type of dental care is fantastic if you are someone who wants to improve the health of your teeth. Remedial treatment can be found on NHS cover on a basic level. If you need a more detailed way of tackling remedial features such as dentures, try a private dental plan instead.
Check-ups: This is the most common reason why people go to the dentist. Do you remember memories from your youth of going to the dentist and that feeling of being in the waiting room? The fact is check-ups are the easiest part of going to the dentist because they do not apply any pressure to your teeth. The brilliant thing about choosing a dental plan where check-ups are included is there is virtually no financial pressure put on you whether you go for NHS cover or private dental cover. Check-ups can include anything from having an x-ray done for your teeth to simple hygiene treatments.
Cash incentives: If you had a dental accident under private or NHS cover, you could be entitled to hospital cash benefit of a specific cash value under the terms and conditions of your dental plan agreement. This is useful if you are putting your children on your dental plan as it will protect them in case of accidents and emergencies, while making it easier for you to take care of them during recovery because of the cash benefit available.
Whether you are choosing a private dental plan for a little bit extra or you want NHS-affiliated cover for something simple that fits into your lifestyle, dental plans come in all shapes and sizes to suit your needs. The best way to look at a private dental plan or an NHS dental plan is like apples and oranges in a basket. Both are essentially different from each other; however they are both equally nutritious in what they provide. If you choose a private dental plan over NHS cover or vice versa, you are still taking care of your teeth which is the most important part of choosing a dental plan.
