Look into the Lives of Our Most Beloved Celebrities-After Their Deaths For the first time, beloved psychic Sylvia Browne reveals how cherished stars are using their talents since their deaths. Which celebrity is working on a cure for cancer? Which musical legend has been composing and sharing songs with a young musical prodigy here on earth, unbeknownst to the future performer? And which two stars are eternal soul mates? From longtime regrets to newfound passions, Afterlives of the Rich and Famous includes everything these deceased stars-including Princess Diana, John Lennon, Marilyn Monroe, and many more-most want to share. By channeling her longtime spirit guide, Francine, Browne gained unrestricted access to a dimension most of us can only imagine, one where telepathic communication is the norm and everyone occupies their healthy, thirty-year-old body. Afterlives of the Rich and Famous is a book that no one else could have written, and a must-read for every fan of this extraordinary assembly of celebrities.
Sylvia Browne was born Sylvia Shoemaker on October 19, 1936. She had a graduate degree in English and worked for 18 years as a Catholic school teacher. She trained as a hypnotist and trance medium. She was a self-proclaimed psychic who claimed to be able to see into the past, the future and the afterlife. She appeared on several TV shows including The Montel Williams Show, Larry King Live, Unsolved Mysteries, and Haunted Lives. During her lifetime, she published more than 40 books including Journey of the Soul, Making Contact with the Other Side, Adventures of a Psychic, Secrets and Mysteries of the World, If You Could See What I See, Insight, and End of Days. She died on November 20, 2013 at the age of 77.

Tons and tons of items flood the market place at high to normal value and buyers flock to purchase quick upgrades or enhancements. Sure this part of the weekend is great for sellers and demand usually takes care of undercutters very quickly, but it's when you get deeper into the weekend and most buyers stop showing up that things get interesting. With reduced demand but many auctions that didn't sell the day before being posted at 48 hours, the supply to demand ratio completely flip flops. Instead of high demand, medium supply you now have low to medium demand and way too much supply. Prices plummet in response. A wise auctioneer will sell like crazy with everything he has from Thursday night to Friday night and then buy the leftovers Saturday morning and on into Sunday.
If so, with which items?
Personally, I see this happen constantly with materials more than any other items. I call Saturdays "Saronite Saturday" for a reason! Other enhancement items like eternal belt buckles will drop like rocks Saturday into Sunday and then sky rocket throughout the week from pvp and pve rewards. The materials for these items tend to be proportional to their end products.

Genital Warts 5+ years - trying ACV for first time
|Watch this
|View More Posts Ignore
Hi guys,
I've had genital warts recurrences for over 5 years since I was about 23-24. I'm now 29 and I want to kill this virus once and for all.
I never took it seriously and didn't really read up on it properly until this year. Healthwise I don't smoke, barely drink, I'm taking expensive quality multivitamin, vitamin C, vitamin D supplements, eat fruit daily, eat homemade food and drink lots of clean water avoiding sugar and caffinated drinks.
At the clinics in the UK, treatment with Aldara/Podophilotoxin/Freezing is free but I don't think it's helping to kill the roots of the wart virus.
I've been researching and come across many stories of how Apple Cider Vinegar when applied to each wart can help stop the virus returning once and for all.
This makes sense to me as the apple cider can soak into the skin and kill the wart at the root not just the head of the wart like other treatments recommended by the docs.
I've used cotton wool soaked with the vinegar and stuck it onto each wart using medical microporus tape.
No sign of the warts changing colour after two days, should I just keep going?
Please someone tell me it's going to work this time! I'm so tired of treating these stupid things! I do worry about ever having a family one day if I can't get these things to go, I would always tell someone I have had them but I don't even want to think about dating when these things are around.

I have been suggestion hash for that, then someone said we only need it the protocol, now you tell me we need it again for config file... ;-) [Side note, for protocol we can build a perfect hash function... but for the config file, we might not know the keywords used by each driver. So an unperfect hashing with a more dynamic table need to be used. However remember that hash table are most of the time of fixed size, this introduce limitation and/or waste of memory.] TROUBLE: Is the config file suppose to be read only at startup, or re-read later (for dynamic loading) when we get a signal (or ?)? If it has to be re-read and that some config of some LCD is change (baud rate? size? ...) should we reset and reinitialise the driver? How do we detect changes, how do we tell the driver?

Material Handling Experts
Advance is a UL approved electrical enclosure assembler. Every dock lift you buy from Advance comes with an electrical controller box that is UL approved with the UL label. Other manufacturers can charge hundreds of dollars for this important feature. With Advance, it's free.
Dock lifts are designed and built as an integrated torsionally rigid structure. The base frame has a wide stance to provide maximum support. The scissors legs are tied together with torsionally rigid torque tubes. The platform is a box beam design, which adds to the torsional rigidity of the entire structure.
Advance manufactures its own industrial grade cylinders with steel front bearing blocks equipped with Teflon coated, sintered, steel backed, lifetime lubricated bearings; pistons equipped with nylon glass filled wear rings; cylinder rods made from high strength stress-proof steel that is hard chrome plated; cylinder housings that are automatically welded with specially designed mechanical lathe welders and spud welders rather than providing inexpensive agriculture grade hydraulic cylinders without many of the above features. Also, for safety, all cylinders are equipped with internal mechanical stops which prevent the cylinder rod from leaving the cylinder housing, so you don't have to depend on external stops on the lift to prevent the lift from collapsing when fully raised.
All Advance lifts go through a multi-step paint process ending with an oven baked-on primer and an oven baked-on hard enamel paint finish to ensure long equipment life rather than outdated air dry paint methods that take 30 to 60 days to cure. Advance provides the best paint finish in the industry.

The company's press release doesn't mention a rotational speed, but similar products from Seagate (Barracuda LP) and Western Digital (Caviar Green) reduce spindle speeds from 7200RPM to 5900RPM and 5400RPM to conserve energy. This jibes with Samsung's claim that the F3EG is 40% more power efficient at idle and 10% during read/write than competing drives.
Samsung is a bit slow to announce the F3EG, as it seems to have been available on Newegg for a few weeks. In any event, the drive is e-tailing for $180, which is on par with the aforementioned units.

College Hockey:Pioneers Eke By Purple Eagles in OT
Niagara Acquits Itself Admirably in Last Second Road Loss
DENVER — In a hard fought game, the seventh ranked Denver Pioneers squeaked out an overtime victory over the No. 17 Niagara Purple Eagles at home, 2-1. Freshman Tyler Ruegsegger got the game winner with 6.1 seconds left, taking a beautiful behind-the-back pass from Brock Trotter and firing a wrist shot inside the left post.
"I was playing point on the power play there and I saw Trotter had it with 10 seconds left moving to the net and I knew there was going to be a play on goal there and I wanted to get down for a rebound and Trotter made an unbelievable pass there and gave me the whole net to put it in," said Ruegsegger.
The Pioneers started tentatively, having trouble moving the puck. Niagara's Matt Caruana had an excellent chance at the 1:07 mark, as the puck came to him at the right post, but Pioneer netminder Glenn Fisher managed to dive back along the ice and make the stop.
The Pioneers started to get their legs under them, helped by a series of Niagara penalties. Brian Gifford had an excellent chance, redirecting a pass in front that Niagara goalie Juliano Pagliero managed to stop. The Purple Eagles had a good chance on a power play on Chris Moran's tip-in try from in front, but Fisher closed the five-hole.
The Pioneers got on the board at 15:53 of the period on a fluke bounce. Trotter slid a pass through the crease that went off a skate to Ryan Dingle, who got off a great shot that Pagliero stopped, but Rhett Rakhshani came out from behind the net and poked the puck into the crease, where it deflected off Dan Sullivan's skate into the net.
The Pioneers ramped up the pressure in the second period, outshooting the Purple Eagles 17-6, but, as they have all year, struggled to score goals. Pioneer coach George Gwozdecky mixed up his lines at the start of the game in an attempt to generate more offense, moving Trotter to play with Ruegsegger and Gifford and Ryan Helgason to Dingle and Rakhshani's line.
"I think being more offensive is having more energy and being able to physically impose your style on your opponent," said Gwozdecky. "Helgason is an energy guy, and we needed him to be able to energize Dingle and Rakhshani. I thought he did a nice job, as did Tyler with Trotter and Gifford."
"Based off our shots, I think we created a lot of offense tonight," said Ruegsegger. "Each night, no matter who you are playing with, you have to go out and work hard and things will pay off."
During a 4-on-4, the Pioneers had an excellent chance when Andrew Thomas made a pretty behind the back pass to Dingle streaking down the slot. Dingle got off a great shot that Pagliero just got the right pad on.
Meanwhile, the Pioneers tied up Niagara's leading scorer Ted Cook, limiting him to only one shot. When the Purple Eagles did manage to get a shot, Fisher read the play well, as when he slid across the crease to suck the puck into his chest on a one-timer by Moran.
In the third period, the Pioneers continued to generate good scoring chances, but were unable to put the puck in the net. Ruegsegger, moving across the middle from the left side circle, rang a shot off the crossbar early on.
Cook tied the game at 10:26 on what started out as a harmless play. Cook backhanded a shot from near the crease that Fisher stopped, but he gave up a rebound, and Cook got behind the Pioneer defense, picked up the puck and roofed it in.
"We're a young team and I think we had too many guys playing not to hurt us instead of going out there to help us, but when we got the score we started to play well and had some chances to win," said Purple Eagles' coach Dave Burkholder. "We get one and we start playing with confidence, but we were on our heels all night. Thank god for our goalie or we wouldn't have got to overtime. He played great."
The Pioneers, who had seemed in control of the game despite the narrow margin, started to play a little recklessly. Fisher coughed up the puck behind his net along the boards and the puck came out to Kyle Rogers, but Fisher just managed to get back into his net in time and knock the shot wide.
The Pioneers regrouped and generated great pressure in the waning moments of the period. Pagliero made several excellent stops, and Pioneer captain Adrian Veideman rang a slap shot off the left post. The Pioneers outshot Niagara 16-8 in the period.
"I thought their goaltender played really, really well, and they played a great road game," said Gwozdecky. "They were smart defensively, they blocked a ton of shots, they were diving for pucks. For as hard as we played, we really didn't see up to that point a lot of the positive results of our effort."
The overtime was played mostly in Niagara's zone. At 3:37, Pioneer sophomore Patrick Mullen looked to have the game won when he shot it into an open net, but the goal was waved off because head referee Bill Mason had blown the whistle after losing sight of the puck during a wild scramble in front of the net.
At the 3:45 mark, Helgason went hard to the net looking for a rebound as Pagliero smothered the puck, leading to a scrum that ended with Niagara's Scott Langdon getting a penalty for cross-checking. Langdon also got a misconduct for yelling at Mason from the box. The penalty set the stage for Ruegsegger's game winner.
"We were talking on the bench there that if we kept on shooting the puck something was going to go in," said Ruegsegger. "We stayed positive the whole time and it paid off."
"I thought we dealt with that negative emotion very well," said Gwozdecky. "In those situations, it's very easy to lose your composure and take a bad penalty or get yourself out of position, so I was proud of how we responded."
Niagara gets its chance at redemption Saturday night; face-off is set for 7:05 in Denver.

ZF-10821: moveMessage() not executing with IMAP and gmail folders (tags)
I simplified the code that is not working. The folder exists. This code is not throwing any errors but is not actually moving the file. If I activate the commented line the email is marked as seen, so the unique id is correct.
foreach ($this->mail as $key => $email) { $uniqueId = $this->mail->getUniqueId ($key); if ('firstname.lastname@example.com' == $email->from && $email->isMultipart()){ //move it to the backup folder #$this->mail->setFlags($uniqueId, array(Zend_Mail_Storage::FLAG_SEEN)); $this->mail->moveMessage($uniqueId, $this->destination_folder); } }
While debugging I see that a copy is executed first. Zend/Mail/Protocol/Imap.php that sendRequest() is used to send :
TAG23 COPY 10807 "myTag"
and the response is TRUE.
Later a removeMessage($id) call is made with this content: TAG24 STORE 10807 +FLAGS.SILENT (\Deleted)
The response is as well TRUE, but no real modifications happen in the Gmail mailbox. Is a pro Gmail account if this is relevant in any way.

User reviews on Watching TV with the Red Chinese
This was a very stupid movie that is not worth your time or your money and I do not recommend seeing it in the theaters. I did not like the story and the way it was told, I thought that most of the scenes did not work and there was way too much of silly dialogue. There were a lot of indie cliches in this film that was very annoying and obvious. I also did not like the way this film looked and the grainy black and white cinematography seemed pretentious and silly. Overall, this film sucked and I did not have a good time watching it.

Cheerful Weather for the Wedding Movie Reviews
Cheerful Weather for the Wedding
Release Date: Dec 07, 2012
Rating: (PG)
User reviews on Cheerful Weather for the Wedding
I did not like this film and i do not think it is worth seeing in the theaters. I found the film to be dull and completely empty, there was no tension, no meaning and no drama whatsoever. It is a very superficial film with beautiful costumes and lavish backgrounds but that is all, the film has nothing to say and I was bored out of my mind during it. The acting was also quite mediocre and it seemed that the actors did not really care too much about this project. I had high hopes for this film because I love period dramas and I thought with such a great cast the film should be great, unfortunately it was not.
This is a comedy/drama about how a woman's life and future is thrown into chaos when her former lover shows up on her wedding day. I did not like this film and I do not think it is worth seeing in the theaters. The film was very superficial and it felt forced. It is beautiful visually and the costumes are amazing but the acting is weak and the film has no wit and no energy, I was really bored for the most of it. The film is basically about privileged people enjoying being privileged and nothing more or less. Overall, the film is not worth your time or money.
Well, ladies, this one is definitely not for you and your boyfriend or husband to see together. At least mine definitely was bored all the way through...I think he was just hoping to see a trailer for "The Hobbit" the whole time- ha! This is a sensitive love story about a girl who is about to marry a stand up guy and is all ready for her wedding. It is set, in fact, on the very day of her wedding. What happens on that special day? Her former lover, who was the real love of her life, shows up to tell her that he is still in love with her. I know: BA BA BA BUM!!! Drama all the way, and not the kind you think because the past love story of the two main characters is not what you think it is. For most of the movie, they are shown in flashbacks instead of on the day of the wedding so you have to guess at what the tension of the day is. I recommend going with your girlfriends or your gay guy friends. My boyfriend was agitated, lol!
I just *loved* this movie and everything about it! There was nothing in this movie that was overdone or melodramatic. It all had a very realistic and natural feel to it, in that perfectly understated way that only British dramas seem to get right. The movie is supposed to be based on a novel from the 1920s that I have never read, but it's slightly similar to the famous novels about single English women like "Sense & Sensibility", "Emma", and "Pride & Prejudice". I love the way the story is set up so that you really don't know exactly what happened between the main characters. Their love story is not conventional but you can definitely see it happening in real life, which I found to be the most relatable part of the story. I also love the cast - every performance is sublime and pitch perfect, just as you would hope it would be in a love triangle set in an English garden. An absolute must-see for lovers of romantic stories.
If the critical and popular acclaim for Downton Abbey has proven anything, it's that the British period piece will never, ever go out of vogue. Other cinematic and entertainment trends will come and go: super hero movies, fantasies about wizards and witches, and even 3D: all of these things will come to an end before they get started up again. But the British period drama and romance are always in style, and every year proves this meme over and over again. Better yet, they don't have to star Keira Knightley (no knock on her, as she is a fine actress), as these films reveal the long tradition of fine English actors.
The curious title Cheerful Weather for the Wedding turns out to be more of a sentiment than a meteorological observation: Dolly (Felicity Jones) awakens on her wedding day thinking all is going to plan. Her fiance Owen (James Norton) is the picture of steadfast and well-bred English manhood. Something, however, doesn't seem to be sitting well with Dolly . . . and lo, that something is revealed as Joseph (Luke Treadaway), a young man with an old heart with whom she shared the romance of her life the previous summer before he was shipped off to be a grown-up for all the wrong reasons.
Old flames showing up at weddings is not new hat, especially for Hollywood. Lately, they've take this tired theme and made it so we now have comedies about old lovers plotting to destroy wedding parties or undo unions. Joseph, however, is no such cad. He is anxious but willing to wait for Dolly. What she will say to him when the finally come face to face is what gives the movie its only sense of tension. There is a lot of pleasant small talk and harmless flirting, but the movie plays well because the cast is in fine form and the setting (a charming English garden with just enough sunlit dew for a Spring afternoon) is ripe with romantic possibility.
There's a lot to be said for staging, and this adaptation of Julia Strachey's 1932 novel gets it absolutely right in every frame.

Get Ready for Your Vitamin D WinterOctober 23, 2011
Winter is just around the corner so now is a good time to have your vitamin D level checked (via a blood test) if you haven't done so recently. A healthy individual can typically store around a three month supply of vitamin D in their tissues so most will lose a substantial amount of stored vitamin D as they hibernate indoors over the winter and the UVB rays which provide vitamin D are low to non-existent in many areas. The time of day, season, altitude, latitude, and many other factors all determine the amount of UVB that reaches your skin. For many, supplementation may be a good idea to either raise levels back up to normal, or keep them from depleting over a long winter. (more…)

Fans may have been expecting fireworks when all five girls of [artist id="2400155″]Danity Kane[/artist] finally reunited with each other and [artist id="1244169″]Diddy[/artist], for the season-three finale of "Making the Band 4" on Thursday.
But only four of the girls arrived — Audrea Fimbres opted to stay out of it — and there were no fireworks. The girls and their former boss kept their composure as they confirmed that Danity Kane was no more.
Hours before D. Woods appeared on the show , she told MTV News that the finale felt like "the last day of school. I'm moving on to the next grade."
Thursday was the first time that most of the girls had seen each other since last October's shocking season finale, when Diddy fired Woods and Aubrey O'Day. Woods told MTV News that the level of communication since the breakup was actually pretty similar to when they were still a group.
"This is the nice answer that I give: The lines of communication that were in existence during the group exist after the group, meaning me and Aubrey talk a lot," Woods said. "I talk to Shannon sometimes. That's who I talk to."
In an episode that aired a week before the finale, Diddy said he'd consider remaking Danity Kane with just Dawn. But on Thursday night, he reversed that decision and said that DK would exist only with its original members.
In the final episode, Woods seemed to be pretty against the idea of getting back together right now. "I would have to say, we need to have a real conversation about what making it work means," she told MTV News earlier. "If you don't really address the problems, you'll be in the same predicament. You have to be sober about making these decisions."

Raised in Bahrain and London, Misha Nonoo spent her early years inspired by the vibrant colors and array of textiles in Middle Eastern souks and markets. This cultural influence is evident in designs that juxtapose whimsical childhood memories with her adolescent immersion in the UK's counterculture. While living in Europe for school, Nonoo developed her appreciation for fashion and brand cultures, as she experienced the formidable development of the luxury industry through the '90s and beyond. She later spent time working for fashion houses in Paris, the epicenter of style, structure and effortless elegance, before settling in New York where she launched her jacket and coat label, Nonoo.
What's hot right now?
I've just been to Berlin for the first time and really enjoyed the underground art movement that I experienced there. In particular, I discovered an artist called Thilo Heinzmann who's textural work I really admire—I would love one of his pieces that looks like paint has been sprayed onto the canvas. While in Berlin, I also went to the popular Claerchens Ballhaus, a '20s dance hall where couples dance the tango, cha-cha and salsa to live bands under a beautiful vaulted ceiling with paint peeling from the walls. It's an extremely romantic place and the dilapidation of the hall adds to the atmosphere. I love art but often find that I don't have enough time to visit galleries and learn about the fledgling artists whose work might be interesting or a good investment, and for this reason I am really excited about the new art platform Paddle8, which not only holds curated sales by some of the worlds leading gallerists but also gives you an insight into what other people in the art world are collecting. Finally, I am passionate about food and am fascinated by the new movements that are popping up in New York surrounding our food and the ethics of the food system. As such, I really like The Fat Radish, a new restaurant on Manhattan's Lower East Side which uses seasonal ingredients and advocates the farm-to-table approach.
Other than Nonoo jackets, what are your fall must-haves?
My fall must-haves center around my lifestyle, which varies from city life to weekends in the country or abroad. I'm an advocate of a very well edited wardrobe as it makes life much easier when constantly on the go. I have an eclectic mix of tailored separates that I live in and top off with my jackets or coats. The essential items that I'm looking to add to my wardrobe for fall include Chloé's high waisted cuffed pants, the Ida jacket from my collection Nonoo, Miu Miu's studded patent kitten heels and the Mini Popleopard print bag from Lanvin.
What were your favorite shows from the spring/summer '11 collections?
My favorite shows from s/s '11 were Mary Katrantzou and Alexander McQueen. I really enjoyed seeing what Sarah Burton did at McQueen this season as she had big shoes to fill, which must have been an extremely daunting position to be in. However I thought that she rose to the challenge well. She took elements of McQueen's work and gave them a femininity and softness, which hasn't previously been witnessed at the label. I thought that Mary Katrantzou's collection was very original and fresh, and I appreciate that at a time when so many fashion houses stage enormous big budget shows full of spectacle but rarely originality.
What were your takeaway trends?
I think that hats and headwear (turbans in particular) are gaining in popularity, and come spring will be big news. I also think that textured fabrics and paint techniques (seen on clothing but also in beauty trends) will be a stealth trend that will be commercialized for the mass market. Finally, tailored separates have been gaining in importance over the past few seasons and were all over the catwalks for s/s '11, meaning that pants, jackets and blouses are here to stay.

The perfect garden
Gardening is a great hobby. It helps us relax, find tranquility within our environment.
In order to keep our garden neat and clean, there are many things that has to be followed regularly.
1. Regular watering of plants is necessary. Have a pathway neatly cut so that excess water flows out through that channel.
2. Plant your trees with a minimum distance of one meter.
3. Do not use excess of fertilizers and artificial manures.
4. Try to plant all kinds of fruits or vegetables in the space available. But it is essential to know what kind of plants are best suited for our garden
5. Drip irrigation is the best way of irrigation in areas where water is scarcely available.
6. Pests are one of the major problems that arise in gardening. Eradicate them as soon as possible. Have watchful eyes on the plants. Early detection of diseases is the best way to stop spreading of diseases among plants.
The plants in the garden can fulfill your daily needs of vegetables or fruits. Having flowering plants in the garden is an added attraction. Flowers can make your garden look beautiful. Your garden can turn into your neighbor's envy.
Please take good care of the plants. Remember, we contribute something valuable to this mother earth by having such good hobbies like gardening.
Protect mother earth. Live a better life.

Madoff Trustee Spreads His Wings, Sues Ruth
Ever since Bernie Madoff's guilty plea back in March, life seemed to be finally settling down for Bernie's wife, Ruth. Last month, she agreed to give up her potential claim to more than $80 million of assets, but, in an agreement with federal prosecutors, was allowed to keep $2.5 million in cash. (Minus taxes and legal fees, she will have less than $2 million, according to a person familiar with the matter.) Then, earlier this month, federal investigators concluded they didn't have enough evidence to charge her criminally.
But things took a turn for the worse for Ruth earlier today when Irv Picard, the trustee for Bernie's collapsed firm, filed suit against her, seeking to recover some $44 million. Click here for the complaint, filed in Manhattan bankruptcy court.
So what, if Ruth seemingly wasn't a co-conspirator in Bernie's operation, gives the trustee the right to go after her? And why even bother? After all, anything he gets from her will likely be a drop in the bucket for victims of the fraud. Picard explains in the complaint:
For decades, Mrs. Madoff lived a life of splendor using the money of BLMIS's customers. Regardless of whether or not Mrs. Madoff knew of the fraud her husband perpetrated at BLMIS, during the past two- and six-year statutory periods, she received tens of millions of dollars from BLMIS for which BLMIS received no corresponding benefit or value and to which Mrs. Madoff had no good faith basis to believe she was entitled. The purpose of this action is to recover that money to the extent possible for the benefit of BLMIS and its defrauded customers.
And will the $2.5 million be part of what Picard goes after? Apparently so:
The United States government agreed not to contest Mrs. Madoff's claim to $2.5 million and to make a payment to her in that amount following forfeiture of the Madoffs' assets. The forfeiture Stipulation And Order . . . expressly provides that the $2.5 million payment to Mrs. Madoff "does not in any way preclude . . . Irving H. Picard, Esq. as trustee for the liquidation of the business of defendant Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC . . . from seeking to recover the Funds from Ruth Madoff." While Madoff's crimes have left many investors impoverished and some charities decimated, Mrs. Madoff remains a person of substantial means. The inequity between Mrs. Madoff's continuing financial advantages and the economic distress of Madoff's customers compels the Trustee to bring this action.
Peter Chavkin, a lawyer for Ruth, had this to say: "What makes this complaint particularly perplexing and totally unjustified . . . is the fact that Ruth already forfeited to the United States Attorney's Office almost all of the assets named in this complaint," assets that prosecutors will distribute to victims of the fraud. "We believe the Trustee's action is wrong as a matter of law and fairness."
LBers, we really want to hear from you on this one. Given all you know about Ruth, should she be allowed to hang onto her $2.5 million?

Comments about Bob Ross Oil Colors:
The Bob Ross Oil Colors are perfect for my needs. I do use other brands of paints, but primarily Bob Ross landscape oils. I do landscapes and seascapes primarily and the texture of this brand works quite well and they mix well with other oils. Also, I find some of the colors very unique. I have been using Bob Ross oils for years and have always been satisfied with their quality.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Firm rich color
By One Great Artist
from Youngsville, NC
I use Bob Ross paint when working on wet on wet oil paintings. They are perfect for that technique. It is a limited color line but that can be addressed by using your knowledge of color mixing to achieve desired tints and shades.
I will definately be re ordering from Blick again!
By Limey
from Daytona Beach Florida
A little more expensive than other oils but I like to support the Bob Ross brand as I learned so much from their free You tube tutorials.

I've always loves the wet-on-wet style of oil painting made familiar to me by Bob Ross. I enjoy his products very much. Blick offers a great deal on these items and very helpful service.

Great quality and price.
By Megan
from Colorado
Works great for landscape paintings. It is a thicker paint with great pigment. Some paints are thinner on purpose so they stick to the thicker paint. Thinner colors are the yellows and red. Bob Ross is great, love his instruction videos. I do not know how these paints would work for potraits or anything other then landscapes.

Cup Movie Reviews
User reviews on Cup
I did not like this film and I do not think it is worth seeing in the theaters. The film was way too old fashioned for my taste and I was really bored most of the time. I thought that the story was full of cliches and the characters were not developed at all. Everybody is so nice in this film and that is just not interesting to watch or realistic in any way. If you like horse and you want to see something very insignificant then I guess this is a film for you. Overall, I do not think this film is worth the price of the movie ticket.

Black or White?
I just found this one. I'm posting it as an extra special treat for Eketahuna who loves this sort of thing
A box contains three cards. One card is black on both sides, one card is white on both sides, and one card is black on one side and white on the other. One card is selected from the box at random, and one side is inspected. If this side is black, what is the probability that the other side of the card is black as well?

Thanks Chris I'd say 1 in 1,000,000 … that I'd get the answer right if I attempted it, so I'll keep my answer to myself and let someone else answer it
3. Eketahuna Said:
December 1st, 2010 at 6:43 pm
Hi Chris, yep, I could work it out according to the 'accepted' logic, but steadfastly refuse to
Not to worry, beer-O'clock is rapidly approaching (though that's relativity, not probability)
5. Shelley Said:
December 1st, 2010 at 7:42 pm
It's the same probability again, I think? 1 in 3 chances?
6. Shelley Said:
December 1st, 2010 at 7:43 pm
I mean 2 in 3 chances this time, oops.
8. Bri Said:
December 1st, 2010 at 10:45 pm
50/50 lol. Theres only two choices it could be: black or white.
9. Bri Said:
December 1st, 2010 at 10:50 pm
Why would it be (2/3) if a black sided card was picked? there were only 2 cards with black sides so the white card is irrelevent to the end question. So there's 2 cards in reality and only 2 color choices for the back to be so the chance would be (1/2) or 50/50. Does my logic make sense? :S Cause I cant see why it would be (2/3)…
10. Brendan Said:
December 1st, 2010 at 11:27 pm
hey i would believe it is 1 in 2 right?
11. Danny Said:
December 2nd, 2010 at 12:18 am
I believe there would be a 50% chance the other side would be black.
Of the cards left you've eleminated the white/white card. So…that would leave the black/black and the black/white card. Since a black face has already been exposed the uninspected sides remaining would be black/black/white or 1/2. Is that correct?
12. danny Said:
December 2nd, 2010 at 12:21 am
sorry 66% chance
13. Jaela Hicks Said:
December 2nd, 2010 at 12:35 am
1/3 only one out of the three cards is a double black duh. lol
15. Bri Said:
December 2nd, 2010 at 7:51 am
I just want to ask even if my answer was wrong (i still believe differently), doesn't my logic make sense, Chris?
16. DP Said:
December 2nd, 2010 at 8:19 am
here is the reasoning the answer is 2/3:
say the black/black card is labeled B/B', the white/white W/W', and we'll use small letters for white/black w/b.
Here are the options for pulling out a card, with the first letter representing the face you can see:
There is a 50% chance that you will even pick a black card, but that is irrelevant, since we know it will be black
now out of the 3 choices where you see a black face, 2 of them have black on the back, and only one has white.
2/3 chance of the other side being black.
18. Breee(: Said:
December 2nd, 2010 at 5:46 pm
i think 1 and 6 chances im not sure though after i read it thats what my head told me
19. Zgdawg Said:
December 2nd, 2010 at 8:32 pm
Interesting But I'm 99% positive its 2/3
20. Brian Burke Said:
December 3rd, 2010 at 1:31 am
It is one in 2 because the one that is white on both sides can be discarded imediatlly because we know one side is black that only leaves two cards the one that is black on both sides and the one that is black on one side and white on the other QED there is a 1 in 2 chance it is black on the other side
22. Jesse Panganiban Said:
December 3rd, 2010 at 8:13 am
I'm quite confident that it's 1/2.
25. Anthony Elmore Said:
December 3rd, 2010 at 2:06 pm
1/3 is wrong. the fact that there is a double white card in the hat is irrelevant, because you already have a black sided card. it is not asking the probability of drawing the B/B card out of the hat, it isasking the probability that the card you are holding is the double black. you are already holding a card with a black side. that means you are holding one of two cards, the B/B or the B/W, two cards, fifty percent. it is either goingto be white on the other side or black on the other side 1/2 chance of either
heres my number if you still want to be an idiot and argue it farther 2536775450
27. Anthony Elmore Said:
December 3rd, 2010 at 3:02 pm
there are two reasons you could be errored, one is that you are assuming all cards are in the hat and you are drawing one of the tree cards, the second is that, like in DP's example, you are assuming all sides of the cards as different options, in DP's example he rules out te sides starting with W and is left with the THREE OPTIONS B'/B B/B' or w/b if yu were to stop there it would be a 2/3 chance because two of those optins have a B on the other side.
where you error in this is by the fact that Two of those options are of the same card. and the question is asking what the probability of the OTHER side of the card being black is. you are iether holdingthe B/B card or the B/W card their is no B'/B card because it is the same card. since only TWO cards hav a blck side andonly ONE has two black sides it is a 1 in 2 chance that the card you are holding isblack on the back
28. Anthony Elmore Said:
December 3rd, 2010 at 3:06 pm
all three cards have an equal chance of being picked. you do not have more of a chance of picking the B/B card than the B/W card because they are both only one card. their is also no more chance that you will be looking at the B/B card than the B/W card because again, they are both only one card.

if you are looking at it as that, you are counting sides and saying there are three total black sides and one white side, looking at a black sides, two of the three remaning sides are black, however, that is like saying all the sides themselves are seperate sides. since you have two cards and are looking at a black side, only one card has a black side on the second side, tha other one has a white side on the back. so you are looking at a 50% chanc the side is black, and a 50% chance the side is white
33. Anthony Elmore Said:
December 3rd, 2010 at 7:50 pm
because both sides of the B/B can't be an option at the same time. if the three optons are B'/B B/B' and W/B and you are holding a known black side. the other side is either going to be the other black side or it is going to be the white side. there is no more of a chance that the black side you are looking at is of the B/B or the W/B
and reversely if you were looking at a white side, the question would ask for the probability that the other side will be white. you are implyng that you have less of chance ofdrawing the B/W card as the other two.

Now that your up Chris…..? I am going to side with Anthony on this one, purely because of my new job role as Devil's Advocate. However, I also feel that I would be wrong, and therefore, by extension the Devil would be wrong. There's going to be hell to pay for this!
Sadly I actually feel that this one is obvious when you stop and think, and your explanations have been pretty clear – sorry Anthony!
The answer is indeed 28.4/42.6…..

39. Anthony Elmore Said:
December 4th, 2010 at 7:12 am
by looking at a black side, you are already ruling out one of the black ide options, we already know you are lookin at a black side, therefore the other side of the card is either white or it is black.
just like in yor post 24, the color of the side you are looking at is irrelevent because it is theknown front side, the card you are holding is B/W or B/B. it cannot be either B/B or B/B because whicever black side you may be looking at doesn't matter.
your error is in not canceling out the side you are looking at, it is the same probability in this instance as if you were laying both cards on a table with a black side showing, picking one of the cards at random t flip, you have the same probability of flipping the white side as you do the black side.

but your missing where if you are looking at the B' side of a B/B' card, both B' and B are not options of that card anymore, like i was saying earlier if you were looking at a white side, thequestion would be the same but with the double white card. it can be easily seen if you wipe the side you are looking at and it no longer exist (getting rid of a black face of both cards) now you are left with Two sides possible. one black, one white.

Hi Chris. I see that you are trying hard to teach Anthony something but it my opinion this is pointless. He either has no idea of probabilities plus is extremely stubborn and self-assured or he is simply making fun of you and is trying to irritate you. In both the cases the dialog is just a waste of time
49. Chris Said:

Hi slavy. I'm not that bothered. Although my patience is exhaustible, I quite enjoy coming up with different ways of explaining problems.
But I agree that I don't think Anthony (or most people) actually understand what probability is.
51. Geosam Said:
December 5th, 2010 at 3:31 am
It is a 50/50 chance.
The first side is black so we have to eliminate the white-white card.
So the card is either the white-black card or the black-black card.
That's two cards making it a 50/50 chance!

Hi Chris,
Can't resist this one Re post 49 … understanding probability
I had a tree fall down in a storm and land on a metal gate, twisting the gate so that when still on the hinges at 90 deg. to the ground, the opposite end of the gate was 45 deg. to the ground.
What was the probability that I could fix the gate ?

It's 3.66m in length, outside frame made of 25mm diameter metal tube welded together. But that's irrelevant, as it's 100% certainty that I'd fix the gate. It's the amount of time that's taken that is the only uncertainty.
Experience ? Never had to do it before, but I like to think I'm like Chris and have a brain (computer didn't help, I tried throwing it at the gate when propped against a book (not Mathematica) but it just bounced off and got excessively scuffed).
My point ? (I'm sure I had one yesterday) Sometimes probability can be overthought and the simple approach is the correct answer.
Oh well, that's me done – sorry for interrupting

August 28th, 2012 at 7:00 pm
Hi I just wanted to point out that the question in itself is wrong. The original question states that there are A NUMBER of cards in a hat, 20% of which are white on both sides, 50% of which are black on one side and white on the other and 30% of which are black on both sides. Then one card is drawn and only one side is inspected, and that side is black. So what is the probability that the other side is white? This makes it significantly more difficult.

Amazing action animeThis is one of my all time favorites. I started watching bleach a few years ago and was hooked. The anime has great characters with deep back stories. The villians are awesome and the plot is well thought out. The one downside to this anime is the number of filler arcs that exist. That being said I enjoyed them for what they were, others will disagree. The anime is currently temporarily ...Read more
An Anime to Be RememberedHands Down! One of the best anime series of its time. The main character, Ichigo, a 15 year-old high school student/substitute shinigami, gives everything of the story. Though there were many fillers ruining the flow of the story line, but not bad fillers. But to make up for the fillers, they add intense fighting scenes, emotional story line, and characters to be remembered. If you are ...Read more

One of the best anime ever.Bleach very quickly became one of my favorite anime of all time when I first started watching it. This was back when it was just season one. Since then, the characters have continued to grow and evolve in fantastic ways. And, while there is a bit of downtime (in order to allow the manga to keep up), the action and fantastically outrageous fight scenes have never ceased to amaze.

Bleach review (great anime)This is one of my favorite anime series. The storyline is great and there are plenty of episodes for a nice time sink. I was very disappointed to see the cancellation of the series and I am too lazy to read the manga. Oh well, I enjoyed what was shown in the series none-the-less.

Have I mentioned that we like the native Dudleyas?
Dudleya caespitosa, can be found as far north as Monterey.
They like a lot of sun, slowly clumping with individual rosettes reaching up to 12″ across. They like rocky outcroppings and are fond of nearby sheep.

Sea lettuce is a bright green algae composed of lobed, ruffle-edged leaves that are coarse and sheet-like and resemble a leaf of lettuce. The leaves may appear flat, thin, broad, and often rounded or oval. Its leaves are often perforated with holes of various sizes.

Well, who knew that there were plants and algaes with the same common name? Now we know the overlap between cactus and seahorses.

You'll never believe what I did last night. This season has been a whirlwind of surprises for me. From my brother and Dad suddenly appearing on my couch all the way from
in what I call the biggest surprise of the century. To the orders that are pouring in, and the invitations to showcase Dione Mauve at events. Even to the bad; where I didn't not get a job I thought I was overly qualified for. Nigeria
But what I did last night was even more unreal. Last night, I ATE BOILED GROUNDNUT IN CANADA. Yes. The one and only treasure hunter in
, Miss Eniola Dav!d appeared at my house with uncooked shelled groundnut. And through the rain, she yelled "Boil it for 40minutes" as I stood frozen with the bag of groundnut in my hand. Ontario
Flashback 2 years ago…
I was depressed…unbelievably depressed because I realized that due to my absence from
in the summer, I will not taste my lovely groundnut in a WHILE. Nigeria
Back to the present…
I boiled the groundnut like I meant business and after boiling it for 45 minutes, I opened and munched one and I died and went to wonderland. It was awesome.
There is no taste like it. If you have never had boiled groundnut. I'm sorry, I really am.
I then proceeded to open a whole lot as I did when I was a kid….
Then just to complete the experience, I wrapped it in a "LIE-LON" bag. This one would probably have cost 25 Naira.
All I can say is, I'm still floating and dancing on rainbows.
Just thought I should share. If you made you jealous, I sincerely apologize. It's all love. teehee
bob-ij love!

Sports can uplift and empower. From the youngest ages, children learn the ideals of fair play and respect by participating in sports. Here, sports become an outlet for making the world a better place.
However, some fans think the feel-good era of sports is ending. The latest arrest or steroid scandal usually tops most tales of triumph in professional sports. Feel-good stories are disappearing from the world of sports along with the role models we once cherished.
But Forest Green Rovers are changing that.
Located in the small town of Nailsworth, England, Forest Green Rovers (FGR) play in the fifth-level of England's professional soccer pyramid, the Blue Square Bet Premier league. Albeit, far below the English Premier League where world-famous Manchester United and Chelsea ply their trade, reaching the Blue Square is a remarkable accomplishment for a team of FGR's size.
The club is known as a plucky underdog who rose through the ranks to surpass pundits' expectations. It's the story of a small town team competing against those of the biggest English cities. However, any resemblance to a Cinderella story ended there.
FGR struggled on the pitch, often sidestepping the devastation of demotion to a lower league on the final day of the season. Sadly, years of on-field setbacks translated into severe financial distress and the need for new ownership to stave off insolvency.
In August 2010, a savior appeared. Dale Vince, the wealthy founder of Ecotricity, a renewable energy company in Gloucestershire, embraced the challenge of resurrecting this small soccer club. But few would have predicted that he would transform the club into a delightfully unique entity: a professional sports team focused on making a difference in the community and world around it.
Under Vince, FGR would no longer adhere to the status quo. From his first moments of ownership, Vince emerged as one of the more colorful chairmen in English soccer—green to be specific. Clad in a t-shirt and jeans, he embodies the hippy ethos of FGR's eco-renaissance.
Vince's vision for FGR was twofold: build the very best team of players possible and become the greenest sports club in the world. This ambition is far from quixotic but rests on an important truth: the incredible media exposure granted to professional sports should be leveraged to enact genuine social change. What better way to reach millions of potential environmental converts than by using the power of sports?
Judging by FGR's accomplishments, this has not been a rhetorical question.
The most obvious changes are to FGR's infrastructure. More than one hundred photovoltaic solar panels now sit atop The New Lawn's roof, which overlooks the fully organic playing field. The panels play an integral role in allowing the club to run completely on renewable energy. Like any professional sports organization, FGR requires quite a bit of energy to keep the floodlights on while catering to a crowd of thousands.
The absence of pesticides and chemicals means keeping the organic playing field in tip-top shape isn't easy. Groundsman Stewart Ward and the Mow-Bot, an electric mower that requires no supervision, share this responsibility. Even though Mow-Bot runs twelve hours a day, keeping the field pristine, it amazingly uses just under two percent of the annual energy produced by the stadium's solar panels. It even sends Ward a text message if it encounters a problem.
Created by the UK-based company Etesia, Mow-Bot gives off zero emissions as it quietly rolls over The New Lawn's field. During its first week on the job, Mow-Bot used its GPS capabilities to "learn" the exact dimensions of the playing surface and, from that moment on, mowing was fully automated.
The Institute of Groundsmanship honored Ward with the Innovation of the Year Award this past December for his pioneering use of Mow-Bot and the challenges of creating the UK's first fully organic soccer field. These challenges might explain why FGR stands alone in greening up the sports world. The modern, win-at-all-costs mentality asks: Why spend money on improving a club's environmental initiatives when it could be diverted to sign a new player? Others have taken fledgling steps—German powerhouse Bayern Munich uses Mow-Bot-like technology at their ground—but no other owner has Vince's ecological pedigree.
Although the solar panels and organic pitch get the lion's share of the publicity, Vince has left no stone unturned in his environmental quest. FGR only uses the most eco-friendly products, even down to the laundry detergent for cleaning the players' uniforms.
The Eco-Management and Audit Scheme (EMAS), the gold standard for European environmental excellence, has recognized FGR's commitment to sustainability. Recognition from EMAS, one of Vince's first goals, validates the club's success.
However, not all of the changes were initially met with excitement. In early 2011, Vince, who is a vegan, removed all red meat-based products from The New Lawn's menu. By the end of the year, the transformation was complete—Forest Green Rovers were fully vegetarian. Vegetable curry and veggie burgers now reside where cottage pie once did.
This change didn't receive nearly as much support as the infrastructure improvements. Many, for the first time, began questioning if this was still the same club they had grown up loving. Having a burger at a soccer match was a time-honored tradition akin to Americans enjoying a hot dog during a baseball game. The outcry was fierce and passionate but appears to be subsiding. Now most rave about The New Lawn's signature dish, the badger pasty. Fear not, it doesn't actually contain badger.
Sales figures appear to support the vegetarian shift at FGR as the club reported a thirty percent boost in food receipts after the removal of red meat. Although an ultimate financial success, the food debate was certainly the first dent in Vince's armor of popularity.
Yet even the most ardent dissenters of FGR's new policies are mollified by the universal salve of sports: winning. Vince smartly recognized that none of his green initiatives would ever be accepted as more than a gimmick if the club continued to languish at the bottom of the standings.
Last place looked like a very real possibility at the time of Vince's takeover in 2010. Before he arrived, the specter of bankruptcy had left FGR with a threadbare squad of players and no capital to add reinforcements. He immediately granted an infusion of cash to the playing budget, allowing manager David Hockaday to snatch up several young prospects, hoping to bolster his struggling team. Although the 2010/11 season ended as the previous ones had—escaping relegation at the very last moment—the foundation was laid for future triumph.
Most of the coaching staff and players were rewarded with new long-term contracts, finally allowing FGR to compete on the same level as the larger teams in their division. They did just that, finishing 2011/12 in 10th place and, as of publication time, they are fighting for a playoff spot in 2012/13. Mirroring the mission of the team, FGR players found sustainability on the field as the bedrock of their success.
With the entire organization revamped from top to bottom, on field and off, the world is taking notice. British newspapers and camera crews now jostle for the next opportunity to shine a light on FGR's unusual mission. Accustomed to the shadows of the European sports scene, such attention is much appreciated because Vince, Ecotricity and Forest Green Rovers are not finished yet.
FGR has miles to go before they fully eliminate their carbon emissions and turn dreams of LED floodlights and electric transportation into a reality. The full story of FGR isn't finished, but the results so far are highly encouraging. Rovers have traversed the high-wire balancing act of success on the scoreboard and making a true difference off the field.
Having achieved the rigorous EMAS standard and currently holding onto a coveted playoff spot in the Blue Square Bet Premier, perhaps FGR really can have it all. The future for Forest Green Rovers is undeniably bright—and green.

Rite Aid is set to acquire leading independent pharmacy benefit manager Envision Pharmaceutical in a deal valued at $2 billion.
CVS Caremark's president and CEO Larry Merlo told analysts Wednesday morning that he was "very pleased" with its first quarter, as results across both the retail and pharmacy benefit management segments came in at the high end of expectations and its integrated assets continue to demonstrate success and improve patient lives.
CVS Caremark outlined succession plans for its pharmacy benefit management business as EVP and COO Jon Roberts will assume the role of president of the PBM business, effective Sept. 1.
CVS Caremark on Thursday reported solid third-quarter results — 2 cents above the high end of its guidance range — driven in large part by better-than-expected performance in its pharmacy benefit management, which is in the midst of a profit-improvement plan.
CVS Caremark has named Helena Foulkes, who is widely regarded as one of the most visionary marketers in modern drug store retailing, to the newly created position of EVP and chief healthcare strategy and marketing officer.
Walgreens on Wednesday sold its pharmacy benefit management business, Walgreens Health Initiatives, to Catalyst Health Solutions in a cash transaction for $525 million, subject to certain adjustments.

It has been a week long period of two lengthy telephone calls between Obama and Putin, negotiations between Kerry and the Russian Foreign Prime Minister but Crimea is now closer to Russia as the Russian Parliament spoke out late Friday on support of Crimea.
At the end of the call on Thursday between Obama and Putin, the US-Russian relations were more strained and no middle ground in sight. For his part, Putin said Russia could not 'ignore calls for help and acts accordingly, in full compliance with international law'.
But he also said US-Russian 'relations should not be sacrificed due to disagreements over individual, albeit extremely significant, international problems.'
Now to add to the strain in the relations both houses of the Russian Parliament said late Friday that they would support Crimea becoming a region of the Russian Federation despite the warnings and sanctions threatened by the United States and the other countries. The EU is a large trading partner with Russia, and the natural gas situation is a major player in the dispute.
The message from Russia has changed from earlier in the week when Putin stated that he did not see Crimea becoming an annex of Russia. Late on Friday Russia's parliamentary leaders, both strong allies of Putin, issued welcome messages to a delegation from Crimea's regional assembly. There is a vote set for March 16 for the Crimean people by their leaders. However, Putin must agree to this and he has not done so as yet.
A vote is set for March 25 in the Ukraine to elect a permanent President. The interim Ukranian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk has stated, 'Crimea was, is and will be an integral part of Ukraine,' he said.
At the start of the Ukraine crisis and ouster of President Yanukovych, Putin did not show interest in Crimea joining Russia and neither did the Russian Parliament. But that all changed yesterday when Valentina Matvienko, speaker of Russia's upper house of Parliament, told the Crimean delegation it would 'support and welcome' any decision made by the Crimean people to become a part of Russia, posted by Reuters late Friday.
It has been questioned if this sever of Crimea from the Ukraine has been years in the making but due to Putin's change in words and initiative this past week it appears spur of the moment
'We shouldn't assume there was a grand plan,' said Mark Galeotti, an expert on Russia's security forces from New York University who is in Moscow and regularly meets with security officials. 'They seem to be making things up as they go along.'
At the time of the Ukraine upheaval Putin warned Yanukovych, 'You will have anarchy,' Putin said he told him. 'There will be chaos in the capital. Have pity on the people.' But he did it anyway. And as soon as he did it, his office and that of the government were seized, and the chaos I warned him about erupted, and it continues to this day.'
Putin's closest advisers are now veterans of the K.G.B., specifically colleagues of Putin's when he served in the organization in Leningrad, now St. Petersburg, during the 1970s and '80s.
He has chosen to shut off those world leaders who do not share his world view. What really is Putin's plan? Sergei A. Markov, a political strategist who advises the Kremlin, said it was not yet clear. 'He is improvising,'
