the sight of the little, seven-month old girl alive and well here:
really made my night. i hope James Kim turns up.
did you really write that last line? pretty callous. what if that was someone you knew? rude.
I think "freezing to death" was intended to be read metaphorically rather than literally. But it's little too apropos given that he is probably dead.
But BR, get a fucking life. Or a manners column.
someone at the stranger is training the intern well - sloppy toss offs - is he eating bark, and dead - to spice up the coverage
mrik, save yourself and go somewhere where they can teach you to write
a helicopter hired by the Kims's family
Remember, kids, if you ever get lost in the mountains while driving to a cushy resort, it's best to have a well-off family.
(For some reason, though, not well-off enough, it seems, to have two cell phones between them.)
Hey K,
If you take a few seconds to google, you'll find that renting a helicopter isn't an outrageous sum of money. And Harrison Ford is never too busy to jump in his copter and help out.
So remember kids, if you get lost and K is your relative, you're fucked cause he's too busy feeling morally superior and can't part with $150 to help out.
What I don't understand is how James Kim doesn't have a portable GPS unit with him at all times, he reviews all sorts of crazy stuff for CNET.

Health & Pregnancy
Genetic Testing: Ethical, Legal, and Religious Issues - Topic Overview
The decision to have genetic tests may bring up ethical, legal, and religious issues.
- The discovery of a genetic disease may have legal implications. But the discovery of a genetic disease that is not causing symptoms now (such as breast cancer or Huntington's disease) should not affect your future ability to get hired for a job or get health insurance. A law in the United States, called the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (GINA), protects people who have DNA differences that may affect their health. This law does not cover life insurance, disability insurance, or long-term care insurance.
- Genetic tests may find a serious disease in a fetus that will greatly impact the child's life and the lives of his or her caregivers. If you are pregnant and are thinking about genetic tests, you may want to think about your own ethical, social, and religious beliefs. What might you do if the tests find a problem?
- A genetic test result is sensitive information. The results should remain confidential. They should only be released to those who are authorized to receive them.
If you are thinking about having genetic tests, be sure that you clearly understand what effect the test results could have. Genetic counseling can help you think through the decision.

I'm hoping this is the right forum for this.
How that I have the base of my site dailyandroidreviews.com, (my site is running on WP 4.3.2.) set up and it's a matter of SEO and general updates and optimization I have a few questions/concerns...
When I Validate WC3, my site is giving me 53 errors and 37 warnings. The first question is; are these errors/warning going to badly affect my site in any major way?
Next up, after playing with my various plugins, I've determined that most of the errors/warnings are coming from Jetpack (22 errors from Jetpack alone) and SEO Ultimate. Both are running the most up to date versions. I like these plugins, is there any way to resolve the issues, or maybe get similar plugins that won't push out some many errors?
I'll be honest, when WC3 says this line has this issue, I don't really know how to fix that coding. I'm trying to learn though.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Pain & Gain
- Studio: Paramount Pictures
- Release Date: Apr 26, 2013
Critic Reviews
- Critic score
- Publication
- By date
A dizzying lowlife saga that's fast, smart, wicked, sort of ambitious and blazingly ironic. It's as unpredictable as a Lindsay Lohan drive to the grocery store, as overstuffed as the pictures on Anthony Weiner's Twitter feed and as hilarious as me on the bench press.
In telling a true story about hapless thugs who are the embodiment of Michael Bay fans, the director has made the most fiendishly enjoyable movie of his career.
It's funny as hell at times with a twisted sense of humor that one typically expects from the likes of the Coen Brothers and Quentin Tarantino.
This is easily Bay's best movie, the work of a filmmaker with a cracked sense of humor that he is able to share with the audience.
Even though Pain & Gain does indeed mine laughs from some very violent acts, there is nothing in this movie that glamorizes those three meatheads. Kudos to Bay and his screenwriters for making sure we're laughing at them, not with them.
With Pain & Gain, his surprising true-crime comedy, Bay has finally decided to lighten up a bit.
Pain & Gain gives you a rush while at the same time making you queasy about how you're getting off.
Michael Bay sends a clear message to those of us who've been making fun of him: He's been in on the joke the whole time.
It's like a giant sculpture that is so strange and off-putting, it's instantly, intriguingly post-modern. Swept up in the film's pile-driving self-assurance, even Bay-haters may absorb the pain to enjoy the gain.
As ambitious and vibrant as it is ugly and scattershot, Pain & Gain is the most charming Michael Bay movie in a long while.
An outrageous based-on-real-life tale that's perfectly suited to director Michael Bay's insanely overblown stylistic and thematic temperament.
It's just too much — too much graphic violence, too many plot wrinkles, too much stupidity, too many supporting players to track...For a movie as physically fit as this one wants to be, Pain & Gain is carrying way too much extra weight.
The movie needed some more detachment – and brevity – but Wahlberg shows once again he has the comedy chops.
The ever-present air of madcap, goofball insanity carries it through. A seriously guilty pleasure.
Michael Bay goes back to a Bad Boys budget and a big boys' rating, for a true-life crime story that's inconsistent and frenetic, but also funny and wilfully outrageous.
Like all of Bay's work, it's over-the-top, brash and exhausting to watch. But like the lifestyle its characters aspire to, there's an allure too.
It all leaves you pondering whether you have just seen a monumentally stupid movie or a brilliant movie about the nature and consequences of stupidity.
A day and half after walking out with a sensation, primarily, of physical relief—at two hours and nine minutes, Pain & Gain makes for a long, loud, relentlessly assaultive sit—I find that my thumb is wavering at half-mast. I'm still not sure whether to mildly like or mildly hate this movie.
The script's occasional gestures toward making this an allegory of the failed American dream are extremely unconvincing in the context of a movie that revels in the excesses of macho culture while laughing at the hapless and stupid who can't get it right.
That sense of extreme, excess, over-the-top everything is there from start to finish. And isn't that what Bay fans count on even at cut-rate prices?
It's a homemade protein-and-steroids smoothie of a plot, combining elements of gore, self-parody, 1990s nostalgia overload and an attempt to say something -- while actually saying absolutely nothing -- about the American dream.
Yep, it's all fun and games until someone gets brutalized repeatedly. Before you can avert your eyes, it's Katie, bar the door and break out the chain saws.
Bay blankets the film in a tone of smug self-awareness that obscures everything but its bald hypocrisy.
There's a certain kinetic charm to the first half of the movie, a freewheeling silliness to these outsized characters that makes you curious to see just how wrong things will go. But as the weightlifters' plot spirals out of control, so does the movie's.
Yes, the canon invoked for this film is that of the Three Stooges, but it's still not as magnificently berserk as they can be. Set your expectations carefully for this one.
Bay can be a master of exuberant chaos, but here the violence mostly lands with a sickening thud, which is fitting, one supposes, but also ultimately numbing.
The movie's best performance — and worst defamation — belongs to Tony Shalhoub, playing the first victim as a conniving, egotistical jerk who deserves to be kidnapped, maimed and ruined financially.

Apr 28, 2013Pain in Gain is what I consider to be the beginning of the big dumb summer films. While it is not as action pact or EXPLOSIVE as other summerPain in Gain is what I consider to be the beginning of the big dumb summer films. While it is not as action pact or EXPLOSIVE as other summer films as well as other Michael Bay films, it is certainly one of the most crazy films I've seen in a while. It sounds like the dumbest plot ever until you are reminded that the story being told is based on actual events. The film is great for what it is and considering other Michael Bay films, this is definitely one of his better ones. Michael Bays "style" works well with this story and all the acting is good. Marky Mark does a fine job but the star in my opinion is Dwayne Johnson who is a riot. Besides a few dumb moments and some pacing issues I think this movie is extremely entertaining and funny. It's a shame it's not getting as much praise at it deserves because Michael Bays name is on it but overall, it is worth a watch.… Full Review »
Apr 28, 2013Pain & Gain is what it looks like when Michael Bay decides he wants to make a little movie, as opposed to another action epic. The directorPain & Gain is what it looks like when Michael Bay decides he wants to make a little movie, as opposed to another action epic. The director known for making bombastic action blockbusters has taken a step back to make a smaller film based on a true story, but it does not mean he put his signature style in check. Pain & Gain is very glossy film, gorgeous at times, and certainly not subtle. It is also an incredibly dark comedy, with a story so ridiculous that it has to be true, and it is. Based on a true crime story, this film does its best to depict what happens when seemingly good-natured crooks get in way over their heads and resort to drastic measures to achieve their American dream. While Bay's style can be grating for some, the mix of a strong cast and a messy, but compelling story makes this a film with a lot more going on than the standard Bay blockbuster. You want to be the same as they?

AT&T (T) -1.4% AH after disclosing its expects to record a $10B non-cash charge for Q4 related to pension/benefit plan losses. A $12B actuarial loss produced by a lower assumed discount rate is partly offset by a $1.9B asset gain. In October, the telco asked the Department of Labor to let it use $9.5B in preferred equity interest to help cover a pension shortfall that had reached $10.2B at the end of 2011.

Dept. of Labor has yet to approve this non-cash charge to re fund the pension plan. A substantial equity interest in their Mobility business unit is slated to be moved to the AT&T Pension Trust, tax deductible, not affecting cash-flow and after this was announced back in Nov. they actually increased their dividend. It was a smart move.

NORMAN, Okla. -- Oklahoma pitcher Daniel McCutchen stood on
the mound at L. Dale Mitchell Park on Monday night and fought two
The first was with Wichita State in the championship game of the
Norman Regional. The second was with his own mind. He won both as
Sooners scored six second-inning runs and held on for a 7-6 victory
over the Shockers.
The Sooners, who lost their first-round game to Texas Christian
on Friday, beat Houston, TCU and Wichita State twice in three
subsequent days to claim their first regional title since 1995, a
season in which they reached the College World Series.
Oklahoma (44-20) also hadn't won four straight NCAA tournament
games since 1995. The Sooners will play at Rice later this week in
the tournament's super regional round. Rice beat the Sooners 8-2 on
Feb. 17 in Houston but Oklahoma routed the Owls 15-3 on April 18 in
Since 1999, Wichita State (46-22) has reached the regional
championship round on three occasions and lost each time.
"All we needed was a break here and there and we didn't get
it," Wichita State coach Gene Stephenson said. "That's just the
way it fell."
McCutchen pitched threw 5 2/3 innings of relief Monday to get
the win and improve to 9-8. His performance came less than three
days after he threw 8 2/3 innings in Oklahoma's first-round loss to
TCU. McCutchen took the loss in that game, marking the fourth time
he lost a game in the final inning.
"I got that monkey off my back and threw it a long ways,"
McCutchen said. "He's off my back for good now."
Joseph Hughes, who went 3-for-4 with three RBIs, hit a two-run
single and Chuckie Caufield hit a three-run homer to ignite OU's
second-inning outburst. All the runs came with two outs.
Wichita State starter Rob Musgrave (6-3) lasted only 1 2/3
innings. However, the Shockers' bullpen stopped the bleeding.
Anthony Capra, Matt Smith, Damon Sublett and Noah Booth held the
Sooners scoreless until the eighth.
That's when Oklahoma picked up what proved to be a huge
insurance run on Russell Raley's RBI single, which scored Hughes.
Wichita State's Noah Krol, who went 3-for-4 three RBIs, drove in
Brian Spear with a double in the bottom of the third inning and
Conor Gillaspie singled home Krol.
The Shockers added two more runs with on Spears' two-run single
in the sixth inning and Krol narrowed the gap to 7-6 with a two-run
home run with no outs in the bottom of the ninth. It was only
Krol's second home run of the season.
After Krol's home run, Oklahoma coach Sunny Golloway went out
the to the mound for a visit. But he elected to leave the game in
McCutchen's hands.
One out later, Josh Workman singled, and he went to third base
on Gillaspie's bad-hop single. But Derek Schermerhorn hit into a
force play, ending the Shockers' season.
"He was still strong and still wanted to pitch," Golloway said
of his decision to leave McCutchen in the game. "But the main
reason was after all he'd been through he deserved to be under that

Hidden Victims Evaluating Protections for Undocumented Victims of Human Trafficking
In the United States, human traffickers most frequently exploit the desperation of undocumented immigrants as a means of obtaining victims. Until recently, their lack of legal status precluded undocumented trafficking victims from receiving government protections typically available to other crime victims and kept them from remaining in the United States to assist in the prosecution of their abusers.

Chasteen and his wife, the former Mary Argo, live on Old Lair Road. He has a son, Christian, and a stepson, Ronnie Kenner. He is the son of Rose Chasteen and the late Earl Chasteen.
Kevin Ray Perkins has filed to run for constable in the seventh district.
A registered Democrat, Perkins has lived in Berry for eight years.
He is married to Amber Perkins and they have three children, Levi, 8, Addison, 5, and Brookelyn, 2.
Former Cynthiana Grede employees received a surprising piece of mail recently when they were told their benefits would soon be terminated.
On Tuesday, there remained some confusion over what the local retirees and those who were left unemployed at Grede's close in 2001 might face. Some are anticipating the loss of health insurance, life insurance and retirement.
Although Grede chairman Richard Koenings was unavailable for comment as of press time, a human resources spokesperson said pension benefits would not be affected by the bankruptcy.

La Unica cigars have been a standard in the J.C. Newman Cigar Company catalog since 1986. The brainchild of cigar masters Stanford Newman and Carlos Fuente Sr., La Unica cigars are made up of specially-selected, aged Cuban-seed Dominican tobaccos under either a creamy, mild Connecticut wrapper, or a rich Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro. Over the years these flawlessly handcrafted cigars have received tons of industry praise and scored several high marks in Cigar Aficionado, but truth be told, you just have to light one up to really experience what La Unica is all about - nutty, creamy flavor with hints of sweetness and fruit for a well-rounded smoke with deep taste that's still unmatched by any other cigar.
Is your favorite stogie out of stock? We'll let you know when we get them back in. Find out how.

"Allen Ginsberg admired the epic sweep and social ambition of Mayakovsky's poetry, while Frank O'Hara was fascinated by Mayakovsky's unabashed intimacy with the cosmos. The barbaric-bardic energy and influence of the Russian Futurist giant have been obscured for half a century, but Michael Almereyda has recovered a living, still-breathing figure of folk majesty, a poet-declaimer whose discoveries are far from spent." Andrei Codrescu
"The poet Mayakovsky may have been a genius, a hipster, a shill, and the first and only early-Soviet rap star. NIGHT WRAPS THE SKY finally does justice to one of the most fascinating and controversial literary bad boys of the 20th Century." Gary Shteyngart
"Mayakovsky read like a sailor shouting through a megaphone to another ship in a heavy sea." John Berger

For those of us who do not belong to the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation, it should be none of our business that tribal officials don't seem to be at all rattled by criminal history or criminal charges.
For example, last week the tribe named as its new chief of staff - in charge of, among other things, its police department - a tribal member who has a substantial criminal history.
Antonio Beltran had some fairly recent run-ins with the law, in 1999 and 2000, including alleged drunken driving and speeding and some other motor vehicles charges related to two hit-and-run accidents in Preston.
But it was his earlier crimes, as a young man, that likely would disqualify him for a management role in most any gambling jurisdiction in the country.
Beltran was 17 when prosecutors said he was out on a joy ride with friends and told them he wanted to "kill a white boy." The victim, found walking alone down a dark street, was stabbed in the back and paralyzed.
Beltran later denied the racial remark and told a reporter in 1998 that he was "angry at the world, about my upbringing and poverty" but said only that night that he wanted to stab someone.
After being led from the California courtroom in which he was sentenced as an adult for the stabbing, according to press accounts, he told the victim, who was in a wheelchair: "You may be smiling � but at least I'm walking."
He also later denied having said that, although witnesses stood by their reporting.
Beltran was arrested some 10 years after the stabbing incident on aggravated assault charges following a confrontation in a bar.
Beltran's criminal history surfaced in Connecticut when he was elected to the Tribal Council in the late 1990s.
But tribal officials said then that, given their sovereignty, they had every right to elect whoever they wanted to run their government. They are free to forgive and forget.
Tribal Chairman Richard A. Hayward, even then a bit of a recluse, went out of his way to praise Beltran in a rare interview as respected and hard-working. Hayward said Mashantucket is a place where tribal members, many deprived earlier in life, could make new lives for themselves.
Tribal officials were right then. And they are well within their rights now to defend another councilor who recently came under a criminal cloud of his own.
Pequot Tribal Chairman Rodney Butler reportedly told members this month that the tribe will pay for the legal defense of Steven Thomas, the treasurer of the Tribal Council, who has been indicted on federal charges of stealing from the tribe. The allegations arose from a period of time before Thomas served on the council.
But while the tribe, like any family, is free to help and come to the defense of any member, this reaction is by no means any kind of legal extension of its sovereignty.
The federal government has clear and unambiguous jurisdiction on the Mashantucket reservation, and tribal officials are just as subject to prosecution as government or corporate leaders anywhere else in Connecticut.
I suspect, though, that if a board member of any major corporation here was indicted after a lengthy FBI investigation, the board would not likely rally around and pitch in for the accused member's defense.
What is worrisome about what can look like a casual treatment of criminal charges on the reservation is the movement by Gov. Dannel P. Malloy to retreat from the state's obligation to police Connecticut's two casinos.
The compact that gives the state's two tribes the right to allow casino gambling on their reservations clearly calls for the state to have a substantial police presence at the two casinos and for the tribes to reimburse the state for what that costs.
It is hard to imagine how the governor can continue to explore the idea of withdrawing state police from the casinos, especially now that the tribal police department at Mashantucket is overseen by someone with a substantial criminal record.
Never mind that tribal police don't even have the right to arrest non-tribal members. They can only try to detain the bad guys and wait for state authorities to arrive.
Pequot tribal members have every right to decide who will run their government.
Connecticut residents, too, can elect their own leaders.
And in coming elections, they should pay attention to any of those leaders who choose to abandon police powers in the state's two biggest petri dishes for crime culture, where big crowds mix daily with lots of cash, gambling and free liquor.
This is the opinion of David Collins.

About this recipe
Israeli couscous is a fantastic alternative to typical pasta and rice dishes. Here, it's matched with shrimp, fresh tomato, white wine, garlic, and lemon. A hint of butter makes a surprising difference, contributing a level of richness to the flavor of the light sauce.
- 2 3/4 cups chicken broth
- 2 1/4 cups pearl (Israeli) couscous
- 1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tbsp. butter
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/2 lb. frozen cooked shrimp, thawed
- 1/4 cup dry white wine
- 1 tomato, diced
- Salt and pepper
- 1 tbsp. freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2 tbsp. chopped parsley to garnish
- Bring broth to a boil in a 3-quart saucepan and stir in couscous; turn heat to low, simmer, uncovered, 6 minutes. Remove pan from heat, cover, let stand 10 minutes.
- Heat olive oil and butter in a medium skillet until butter is melted. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute (do not brown). Add shrimp and white wine; let cook down until white wine is reduced by half, about 3-4 mins. Add diced tomato. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

I am from Nigeria, and I have UK visa to visit for 6 months. I didn't use it to travel because I am pregnant and due for delivery. My doctor says I can't travel. Will I be able to get another visa when next I want to travel again? I don't know if this will affect my chance of getting another visa.
Yes you should be able to get another UK visa without any issues.
Of course you must make sure that you don't violate any other visa conditions. As mentioned by @DumbCoder, UK specifically stops pregnant women, becuse they can give birth in UK and then demand UK residency because of the child

Los Angeles Gasoline Strengthens Most Since October on Output
Spot gasoline in Los Angeles advanced by the most in almost two months after the state Energy Commission said production of the fuel tumbled last week.
California-blend gasoline, or Carbob, output dropped 9.1 percent to 6.19 million barrels in the week ended Dec. 14, the lowest level since Nov. 2, data posted on the Energy Commission's website show. Crude-oil refinery input slipped for the third week to 10.4 million barrels, the least in a month, the state said.
Gasoline supplies on the U.S. West Coast, known as the Padd 5 region, fell for the first time in four weeks, declining by 594,000 barrels to 32.6 million, the Energy Department said.
The discount for Carbob in Los Angeles to gasoline futures traded on the New York Mercantile Exchange shrank by 8 cents to 10 cents a gallon versus as of 4:03 p.m. New York time, data compiled by Bloomberg show. That's the biggest single-day increase for the fuel in Los Angeles since Oct. 29.
Carbob in San Francisco strengthened 3.5 cents to a discount of 20 cents a gallon against futures, the highest level since Dec. 10.
California-grade, or CARB, diesel in Los Angeles moved to a 2.5-cent-a-gallon premium to Nymex heating oil futures from a 1-cent discount yesterday. The fuel in San Francisco was unchanged at a discount of 2 cents a gallon versus futures.
CARB diesel supplies dropped 7.3 percent to 2.93 million barrels last week, the state said. Output of the fuel also tumbled 32 percent to 1.44 million barrels, the lowest level since April. Regional inventories of distillate fuel oil slipped 0.1 percent to 14.2 million barrels, the Energy Department said.
In Portland, Oregon, conventional 84 sub-octane gasoline to be blended with ethanol strengthened by 2 cents to a 10-cent discount to gasoline futures. Low-sulfur diesel in Portland's discount to heating oil futures narrowed by 1.5 cents to 2.5 cents a gallon.

My primary background is in algorithm design. In 2010 I have successfully defended a doctoral thesis on the topic of model-based diagnosis (artificial intelligence/computer science). The main application of model-based diagnosis algorithms is for monitoring and intelligent reasoning about the health of physical systems. These physical systems can be analogue electrical circuits, complex digital circuits, thermodynamic systems, mechanical systems, and many others.
In addition to algorithm design for model-based diagnosis, I have experience in various topic from artificial intelligence such as Boolean satisfiability, knowledge representation, machine learning, automated planning, constraint satisfaction and optimization, and probabilistic reasoning.
I am actively publishing in selective conference proceedings such as IJCAI (International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence), AAAI (American Association for Artificial Intelligence), PHM (Prognostics and Health-Management). I am a Program Committee member for a number of computer science events and an organizer for, amongst others, the International Workshop on Principles of Diagnosis (DX). I am very interested in AI competitions and I am one of the founders and organizers of the International Diagnostic Competition (DXC).
After my graduation I have spent two years in Switzerland, working on a project for UWB (Ultrawide-Band) localization for mobile robots. In this project I have integrated the whole system, implemented the signal-processing firmware in VHDL, designed and implemented the localization algorithms, assessed the performance of the whole system and submitted a number of papers on robotics and localization.
My interests are model-based diagnosis, automated fault isolation and recovery, model-based prognosis, testing and test generation, stochastic local search, satisfiability, constraint optimization, abduction and non-monotonic reasoning, reverse engineering, general problem solving and others.

I have discovered a Description entry ("EMC Flex 8-16") in an systems audit which I can't identify. I have asked the Vendors, but have not yet heard back. I'll post an answer myself when I find out.
I have been unable to find info via searching the web (or EMC's support site).
So for myself and others who may in the future attempt to identify the same thing, does anyone know what it is?
I have a "gut feeling", but would love to hear from anyone who actually knows.
Many thanks,

Spring is beautiful everywhere, but it is more than beautiful in Lebanon. Spring is the spirit of an unknown God speeding through the world, which, as it reaches Lebanon, pauses, because now it is as at home with the souls of the Prophets and Kings hovering over the land, chanting with the brooks of Judea, the eternal Psalms of Solomon, renewing with the Cedars of Lebanon memories of an ancient glory.

There are those who give little of the much which they have - and they give it for recognition and their hidden desire makes their gifts unwholesome.
Source: The Prophet, p.19 (On Giving)
And you receivers - and you are all receivers - assume no weight of gratitude, lest you lay a yoke upon yourself and upon him who gives.Rather rise together with the giver on his gifts as on wings; For to be overmindful of your debt, is to doubt his generosity who has the free hearted earth for mother, and God for father.

My house says to me, "do not leave me, for here dwells your past." And the road says to me, "Come and follow me, for I am your future." And I say to both my house and the road, "I have no past, nor have I a future. If I stay here, there is a going in my staying; and if I go there is a staying in my going. Only love and death change all things."
Happiness is a myth we seek, If manifested surely irks; Like river speeding to the plain, On its arrival slows and murks. For man is happy only in His aspiration to the heights; When he attains his goal, he cools And longs for other distant flights.
They have exiled me now from their society and I am pleased, because humanity does not exile except the one whose noble spirit rebels against despotism and oppression. He who does not prefer exile to slavery is not free by any measure of freedom, truth and duty.

Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.
The reality of the other person lies not in what he reveals to you but in what he cannot reveal to you. Therefore, if you would understand him, listen not to what he says but rather to what he does not say.
If you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work.

I'm asking just out of curiosity.
Today I encountered several really strange words while being captchaed by RECAPTCHA:
- indelms
- sumbetat
- polietry
- grevolfa
If these were reasonable words in any language, a Google search should yield some reasonable pages that use these words in a sentence. However, the numbers of Google results for the above words are 3, 0, 27, and 0. The hits are clearly improbable typos for other, reasonable words.
So where does RECAPTCHA get those words from? (Note: "Books." is not a sufficient answer :) I'm looking for an explanation for the high incidence of seemingly non-existent words...)

Though there's really no delineation between European pearls and North American ones, the pearls in Nasty European Pearls are more apt to open their clams to fuck than to yield any jewels.
The one really gorgeous young lady here is a blonde named Yasmine. She's got a tiny little body that looks awesome getting slammed by a big cock, which it does, repeatedly. The best part of her is her tight little ass, which really looks great as she bends over and takes a doggie.
The rest? Well, it's pretty run-of-the-mill. Some of the young ladies are hotter than others, and the sex isn't bland, but it's nothing special either. Still, for a Euro feature, it's alright.

The Political Philosophy Of Guns Thought Pick of the day
"I'm going to have to be blunt. Gun control advocates rely excessively on a public health case that is not only much weaker than they believe it to be but also crowds out the kind of arguments that might win over their opponents. Their confidence that they are on the right side of history has blinded them to the fact that they have chosen to fight on the wrong ground. They keep harping on about guns killing people. As if guns were like cigarettes, and as if the numbers were big enough to matter" (4,900 words)

Emmaus House, in New York City's Harlem, is a community of formerly homeless people who serve the homeless. It was founded in the 1960s by Fr. David Kirk, a Melkite priest who became Orthodox a couple of years before his death in 2007. Fr. David was at the Catholic Worker before starting Emmaus House. He had thought of opening a house of hospitality in lower Manhattan, but Dorothy Day told him he should go to Harlem, and he did, with some friends who, like him, were inspired by Abbé Pierre, founder of the Emmaus movement in Europe. Kirk remained devoted to the memory of Dorothy Day and bought a burial plot not far from hers on Staten Island.
For some years Emmaus was active on several fronts, demonstrating on behalf of the poor, providing housing for people with AIDS, offering legal help to those unable to pay, conducting some vocational training. Over the past several years it has had to curtail its outreach. Fr. David's failing health forced a drastic cut in Emmaus activities. Food and clothing are still distributed, and once a week the community's van visits places where the homeless congregate, giving out soup, sandwiches, socks, and blankets.
I met David Kirk in the late '60s, when he approached my father's publishing company, Templegate, with a book proposal. He had gathered material from the Gospels and the fathers of the church, all focusing on our obligation to make peace and serve...

text: Dolce & Gabbana Caramel (50) Lip Gloss ($29.00 for 0.13 oz.) is a muted, medium beige nude with a high shine finish. It tones down my natural lip color without washing me out, which I can definitely appreciate! Unlike some nude glosses, it doesn't look thick or unnatural, and it doesn't feel gloopy at all–but there is still some color to it, it's not just a sheer gloss. There is a touch of tackiness, but I wouldn't describe these as sticky.Read Full Review

Aggravating game to say the least
Learning the controls is fairly easy but learning to beat the CPU will take a bit. Could not sit through this game for more than 3 matches. If you are really bored and NEED the GS, get ready to become very frustrated.
Ive just bought the game for £2 (UK) and i think it was a bargain. Had a few games with a friend offline and it was quite enjoyable. I have not played against the CPU yet though so maybe my opinion will change after a dozen games :(
seriously this game is WAY too hard. There has got to be some sort of trick or something I don't know cause this is absurd.
Edit: Got 520, that will do, this game can go do one now!
Just picked this up with the Summer sale today. Hard as hell, but still hella fun and rather addicting. So far I'm noticing the less strategy the better though. I typically get my charge meter full and do forward Backspin swings repeatedly while randomly throwing in the occasional Left Leftspin and Right Rightspin to try and catch them off guard. The Focus mode is great for catching those stray hits that your opponent tries to sneak past you.
The game is hard no question about it. It was a great game when it came out and there were people online to play against. Now I can only imagine there would be boosters online. The AI can be a bit of a joke when it comes to completing the harder difficulties.
Just don't forget the "Ace serve" when playing on harder difficulties. It can make all the difference. Even with that though it will be a challenge. :uzi:

About Me
To learn how to create communities whereever I go...
I'm a free spirited person that is just trying to enjoy life. I'm really trying to take some time for myself right now, I've spend a lot of my life taking care of others and so now is the time I really need to focus on what I want out of life. And I want to meet as many new people as I can, from all over the world and become more active in it.
I've grown up a good portion of my life in the bay area and I love it, but I definitely want to see more of the world. The hardest thing for me to see is seeing people get so caught up in their day to day lives that they forget the appreciate the people and the environment they live in. I'm trying to appreciate my friends and family on a new level creating a stronger balance in my life. I love to learn, try new things, and get outdoors and explore, these things help me to feel alive, especially the outdoors.
I'm always willing to have a good time or help someone in serious need. I'm pretty much down for anything and I have a lot of energy to do these things which helps.
We create our own universe...we create all the happiness and joy we create in our lives, but we also create also cause ourselves pain and suffering, by the choices we make in life. It is how we react to situations that really defines who we are and I believe that we have to do whatever we can to create a positive place to be....wherever we are.
Don't stop dreaming...dreaming can open your mind to new possible realities.
Live life to the fullest. I would rather live and experience this world for all it's faults and hidden treasures than to only exist in it and be content.
No ones perfect and being perfect would be quite boring, so I say work with what your given.
The biggest challenge most of us face is ourselves and once we conquer our own personal roadblocks we can do anything. (As I read in a yoga book, "Most of our obstacles are created within our own heart.")
Reason, Season, or Lifetime
People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime.
When you figure out which one it is,
you will know what to do for each person.
When someone is in your life for a REASON,
it is usually to meet a need you have expressed.
They have come to assist you through a difficulty;
to provide you with guidance and support;
to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually.
They may seem like a godsend, and they are.
They are there for the reason you need them to be.
Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time,
this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end.
Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away.
Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand.
What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled; their work is done.
The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on.
Some people come into your life for a SEASON,
because your turn has come to share, grow or learn.
They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh.
They may teach you something you have never done.
They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy.
Believe it. It is real. But only for a season.
LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons;
things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation.
Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person,
and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life.
It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I smile, give hugs, and help people open their hearts.
I hosted, have been hosted by such special people in my heart. I've participated in numerous group outings and meetings. I've helped show people around my home or my temporary homes.
Couchsurfing enhances my experiences in life. It gives me a chance to meet so many different people from different walks of life. I'm also happy that there is a place where so many people can come together and get to know one another, since that's what life's about anyways...people.
I'd have to say that Couch Surfing has really been a lifeline for me. I have no problem staying in a hostle, but getting to meet and connect with other Couchsurfers has really made me feel at home where ever I go. Traveling can get lonely, but thanks to CS it allows me to have fun and enjoy each area, so much more than I would have been able to do if I was traveling through on my own.
Yoga,Traveling, Hiking, Backpacking, Photography, Snowboarding, Music, Dancing, Taking care of the Environment
I have a great passion for dancing, never taken classes, but I'll dance around and act silly anytime.
I love listening to live music, nothing better than watch a live band. I especially love music with positive lyrics.
I love cooking too...especially when done with other people or for other people.

Music, Movies, and Books
Movies...Django Unchained (2012), Disney movies, Blood Diamonds, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
I really am trying to read more, but it hasn't happened yet...Sidhardtha will always be one of my favorites though.
Music...I love so many different types of music, electronic has been one of my favorites, alternative, 80's, oldies, rock & roll and jazz are also great. I love hearing new stuff and seeing music played live is always a treat. I also love hearing music that people I know have taken the time to create, it seem to have a deeper impact to me.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
In July of 2009 I went to Costa Rica with my friend Curly and we had a blast. We saw a turtle lay her eggs, went on a Canoeing tour, tried to see the volcano, but saw monkeys instead, enjoyed the Bali Hot Springs, went to the Cheese factory in Monteverde, and walked on skyway bridges that put us in the middle of the cloud forest sometime in-between the trees, sometime above the tree, but always up high in the air. It was great to see the country, meet all sorts of people that were traveling around, and it really is a beautiful place. I was only their for a week, so I hope at some point I can make it back and see even more of it's beauty.
Teach, Learn, Share
I want to share all that I learn. I'm willing to teach you anything I know and want to learn as much as I can from each person I know and then take what I learn and share that with new people.
I'd love to teach anyone how to enjoy life a little more. We all take life too seriously and need a day to just appreciate life.
I'd like to learn how to open my mind more and more over time, to other ways of living and other ways of experiencing life.
I'd like to share my love of life and deep love of people with those worth sharing it with.
