How her daughter and her passport taught Jennifer to live like there's no tomorrow
Jennifer Coburn has always been terrified of dying young. So she decides to save up and drop everything to travel with her daughter, Katie, on a whirlwind European adventure before it's too late. Even though her husband can't join them, even though she's nervous about the journey, and even though she's perfectly healthy, Jennifer is determined to jam her daughter's mental photo album with memories--just in case.
From the cafes of Paris to the top of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, Jennifer and Katie take on Europe one city at a time, united by their desire to see the world and spend precious time together. In this heartwarming generational love story, Jennifer reveals how their adventures helped vanquish her fear of dying...for the sake of living.
"Brimming with joie de vivre "--Jamie Cat Callan, author of Ooh La La French Women's Secrets to Feeling Beautiful Every Day
"Coburn proves as adept at describing the terrain of the human heart as she is the gardens of Alcazar or the streets of Paris."--Claire and Mia Fontaine, authors of the bestselling Come Back and Have Mother, Will Travel.

Italian Legacy is a plodding, confusing story about two American sons who come to Italy to claim their inheritance after their father's death. Only one scene, an orgy in and around an indoor pool with some underwater cocksucking, comes anywhere near what we've come to expect from Private. If this is their idea of couples fare, it's time for some new audience research.

Reviews for Oregon Zoo Foundation
My personal experience (2 family retired over age 60 folks) is that this foundation really RECOGNIZES their donors, caters to them and tries to give quality experiences to match their voluntary gifts .As we know there are many charities clamoring for our dollars The Oregon Zoo delivers value for dollar. The zoo has metro (govt) employees who work WELL with the donor foundation volunteers and donors - not always the case.

The Oregon Zoo Foundation is completely integrated with the Zoo Operation and puts its/your "money where the commitment is". They just recently completed and opened an African Exhibit that came in on budget and are working on a new ape exhibit. They use the money wisely and have great project management relative to other Zoo's I have donated and volunteered with such that YOUR donor money actually shows up in a completed project! They acknowledge their donors with special previews and use LOCAL merchants to provide the goodies (eats and drinks) at these events. I like that. I recommend involvement in the OREGON ZOO FOUNDATION. Also a plus - foundation members use email extensively, are available in great number at their donor events and I have found their backgrounds to be very deep in the field (they hire well).
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
Viewing their completed African Safari exhibit and meeting with the folks who are helping with the new vet center (bond issue pays for the building but donations to this foundation are needed to buy what goes in it!)
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
do nothing to change it.
What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
Seeing my dollars used effectively to enhance the Oregon Zoo. Seeing the commitment of the foundation staff.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
Qualified, enthusiastic and dedicated to their job.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
Completely redo any old exhibit they found on this wonderful zoo if need be!
Ways to make it better...
could not have been better.
In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...
managing the projects, the donations and volunteers to maximum benefit of the zoo. They have a lot of activities to coordinate!
One thing I'd also say is that...
I love this zoo. I have been to over 50 zoos worldwide and it is right up there with the best.

Traders Pare Bets Versus Dollar by Record as Treasuries Soar
Foreign-exchange traders reduced their bets against the dollar by the most on record as demand for U.S. Treasuries soared amid concern the global economic recovery is faltering.
Aggregate bets the greenback will weaken against the euro, the yen, the Australian, Canadian and New Zealand dollars, the pound, the Swiss franc and the Mexican peso plunged by 154,105 contracts to 153,216 in the week ended Aug. 9, the biggest drop ever in Commodity Futures Trading Commission data compiled by Bloomberg beginning in November 2003. The data show that for the first time since January traders are betting the U.S. currency will appreciate versus the 17-nation euro on speculation Europe's sovereign-debt crisis is spreading.
"The selloff in risk assets is due to the repricing of global growth," said Ray Attrill, head of currency strategy at BNP Paribas SA in New York. "The volatility levels have just been off the scale in foreign exchange, and that has deterred people from taking up the Fed's invitation to use the dollar as a funding vehicle for risk appetite."
The Federal Reserve said in its Aug. 9 statement that it's prepared to use a range of policy tools to boost the economy, including keeping the target interest rate for overnight loans between banks at record lows until mid-2013. The central bank's decision came after the unprecedented cut of the U.S. AAA credit rating by Standard & Poor's on Aug. 5 pushed down equity markets further amid concern a global slowdown will deepen.
Group of Seven
Group of Seven nations sought last week to head off a collapse in investor confidence that saw investors demand assets associated with traditional havens including Switzerland, Japan and the U.S. The coalition issued a joint statement Aug. 8 that said they will take every action necessary to stabilize financial markets.
"The adjustment process, equities, risk currencies and commodities with the exception of gold reflect a more realistic assessment of economic output here and abroad," said John McCarthy, managing director of currency trading at ING Groep NV in New York. "Waiting for the Fed to do something so asset prices can go up is not a reason to buy risky assets."
'Cautious View'
Treasuries soared, driving the yield on the benchmark 10-year note to a record low 2.0346 percent on Aug. 9. The Treasury sold $72 billion of notes and bonds last week, with the auctions for three-year and 10-year debt priced at record low yields with above-average demand from investors. The 10-year yield climbed three basis points to 2.29 percent at 2:25 p.m. in New York.
"Our preferred strategy is to keep selling rallies in the euro, sterling, Australian and Canadian dollars against the greenback given our cautious view on the outlook for financial markets," Mansoor Mohi-uddin, chief currency strategist in Singapore at UBS AG, wrote in a note to clients.
The greenback appreciated 0.6 percent last week, according to Bloomberg Correlation-Weighted Currency Indexes, which track the performance of a basket of 10 developed-market currencies. The franc fell 0.9 percent, the Aussie dropped 0.4 percent, the yen gained 3 percent and the euro strengthened 0.3 percent.
The dollar slipped 1.4 percent to $1.4449 versus the euro today. The U.S. currency strengthened 1 percent against the Swiss franc to 78.55 centimes and gained 0.1 percent to 76.77 yen. It weakened 1.3 percent against the Aussie to $1.0493.
Volatility Surges
Implied volatility among currencies surged last week, reaching the highest since June 2010, according to a JPMorgan Chase & Co. gauge. The JPMorgan Global FX Volatility Index reached 14.58 before ending the week at 13.34. The gauge was at 12.61 today, up from this year's low of 9.99 in March.
Wagers by hedge funds and other large speculators on a decrease in the dollar are down from a record high 405,267 in March, data released Aug. 12 show. The last time there were net bets on a gain in the dollar was July 2010.
The number of bets on an advance in the dollar against the euro compared with those on a decline -- so called net-longs -- rose to 8,273, from net short position of 1,763. Futures traders cut their wagers the yen will gain to 42,149 from 58,833. Net longs for the franc declined to 4,655 from 12,341.
The euro dropped last week by the most against the yen in almost a month amid speculation the debt crisis will spread to France. The Swiss franc plunged from record highs against the euro and dollar after the Swiss National Bank said a temporary peg to the euro was possible to stem the franc's gains.
The euro strengthened 0.6 percent to 109.98 yen today and surged 2.8 percent to 1.13912 francs.
Sarkozy, Merkel
French President Nicolas Sarkozy and German Chancellor Angela Merkel will meet Aug. 16 in Paris to discuss economic governance of the euro region, according to statements from both leaders' offices. France, Spain, Italy and Belgium imposed bans on short selling to stabilize markets after European banks hit their lowest level since the credit crisis. A short is a bet an asset will decline.
"If this ban is temporary and calms the markets and restores the credit markets, the euro will breathe a sigh of relief," said Boris Schlossberg, director of research at the online currency trader GFT Forex in New York.
Bets against the dollar rose to 310,222 contracts on July 26, the highest level in more than two months, on concern political wrangling in Washington on raising the U.S. debt limit would erode the value of the world's reserve currency.
Debt Compromise
President Barack Obama signed a debt-limit compromise that prevented a U.S. default on Aug. 2, the day the Treasury had warned the nation's borrowing authority would expire, ending a months-long debate that reinforced partisan divisions.
Strategists on average expect the dollar to fall 1 percent by the fourth quarter against 47 currencies, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. That compares with a predicted 2 percent decline on July 12. Against developed-nation currencies, the dollar is forecast to gain 1 percent.
Cumulative inflows into the U.S. currency in the past five days totaled almost four times the average amount compared with the previous year, according to iFlow data from Bank of New York Mellon Corp., the world's largest custodial bank, with more than $26 trillion in assets under administration.
"Our iFlow bond and equity indicators also confirm a shift in asset allocation preferences with U.S. equities now the strongest net bought across the board given portfolio managers with longer-term investment horizons looking to avail of bargains at very attractive re-entry levels," Samarjit Shankar, a managing director for the foreign-exchange group in Boston at BNY Mellon, wrote to clients.

Ecological pyramids of productivity are very useful when representing the production of biomass at each trophic level, it shows you the energy going through each level of the food chain. Units used to represent this data are grams per meter2 per year or calories per meter2 per year. You'll be able to appreaciate a standard ecological pyramid when energy at the lower trophic levels are high and as you arise the pyramid, energy decreases. In a situation like this, since lower trophic levels have more energy, this means they have more population, meaning that they are able to feed organisms on the upper levels.
One important thing to consider is that as energy is transferred from one trophic level to another, only 10% of it is used to build new biomass. Therefore in a pyramid of productivity each step will be 10% the size of the previous one (100, 10, 1, 0.1, 0.01, 0.001 etc.).
Noticeable advantages you'll be able to appreciate when using pyramids of productivity are:
- There are no inverted pyramids
- The input of solar energy can be added
- It takes account of the rate of production over a period of time
However here are some disadvantages as well which are:
- The rate of biomass production of an organism is required, which involves measuring growth and reproduction through time.
- There is still the difficulty of assigning the organisms to a specific trophic level. As well as the organism in the food chains there is the problem of assigning the decomposers and detritivores to a particular trophic level.
This youtube video, may help you understand Food Chains in a better way. Enjoy!

Great product!!!!!
By Gin

I am using the product in the cabinet under the bathroom and kitchen sink. It makes articles easier to find without getting down and digging to find what you need. I had to get someone to install it, due my inability to do it myself. Matter of getting down and inserting the anchor screws in the wood. This make the basket more stable.

I don't think it is necessary to remove red-links from articles as you have done in this article. All that does is discourage further contributions and makes it more difficult to navigate when articles are created.

- 184.108.40.206 (talk) 11:33, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
What about The Brooks Brothers ? - five UK Singles Chart hits, including a couple of Top Twenty entries. Cheers,
188.8.131.52 (talk) 19:43, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
- That one's up now under The Brook Brothers. Chubbles (talk) 19:28, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
- Oh yeah, Brook Brothers (not Brooks Brothers) - sorry. How about New World ? From Australia, but five UK chart hits including four Top 20s.
- 220.127.116.11 (talk) 12:00, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
- Now live at New World (band). Chubbles (talk) 19:02, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
Next - Maureen Evans - UK singer with five chart hits, including "Like I Do" (#3 1962). Cheers,
126.96.36.199 (talk) 19:02, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
- Stub's up with a complete discography but not much biographical data. Chubbles (talk) 13:20, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
Also, the new article on Ral Donner may interest you; somehow, he escaped my notice all the way up to now despite four Top 40 US hits. Chubbles (talk) 20:40, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
- Oh yes, Ral Donner - well done. On the subject of Elvis sound-alikes, what about one-hit wonder Danny Mirror (real name Eddy Ouwens from Netherlands). #4 UK hit in 1977 with the truly bloody awful "I Remember Elvis Presley (The King is Dead)". If you've never heard it, you're lucky ! I must be buzzing today because what about Richard Barnes (two hit wonder - "Take To The Mountains" and "Go North" - both 1970). And a couple more one hit merchants in Brendon (Brendon Dunning) #14 in 1977 with "Gimme Some"; and Frantique ("Strut Your Funky Stuff" - #10 - 1979). That'll keep you out of mischief ! Best wishes,
- 126.96.36.199 (talk) 12:40, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
Mirror already has an article under his given name. Wow, I'm amazed at how little information there is about UK one-hit wonders; some of these are even more poorly documented online than US one-hitters from the '50s. Put up (very short) stubs for all; maybe I should invest in a UK singles book. Chubbles (talk) 14:13, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
- Yes the lack of UK one-hit wonder info is frustrating. Perhaps all the more satisfying to find something though. I would recommend the 'bible' - Guinness British Hit Singles & Albums - although this will not provide you with biographical information for anyone but the most famous.
- 22.214.171.124 (talk) 11:27, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
- Two more then - Fierce (UK female vocal group) - one Top Ten, plus three other hit singles and Top 30 album in 1999 / 2000; and Cupid's Inspiration (two late 1960s hits including one Top 5).
- 18.104.22.168 (talk) 11:16, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
- Candlewick Green (one-hit wonder with "Who Do You Think You Are?" in 1974 on Decca Records); and Harmony Grass (similarly with "Move In a Little Closer Baby" on RCA Records in 1969) are your next tasks, should you accept the challenge ! Regards,
- 220.127.116.11 (talk) 12:54, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
- Or Forrest (American Forrest M Thomas Jr) with two Top 20 UK hits in 1983, both covers - "Rock The Boat" and "Feel The Need In Me".
- 220.127.116.11 (talk) 13:19, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
- All up, though I couldn't even find a complete memberlist for the Candlewick Green article. I thought the Brits were famed for preserving their cultural history... Chubbles (talk) 14:22, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
- Well done. Brits famed for preserving their cultural history ?! Hell, no. We sell it off to all those with no culture or history - the United States mainly. LOL.
- 220.127.116.11 (talk) 12:52, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
Two more for you - Lance Fortune (real name Chris Morris - UK #4 in 1960 with "Be Mine"); and The Four Knights (U.S. male vocal group - UK #5 in 1954 with "(Oh Baby Mine) I Get So Lonely" on Capitol Records)
18.104.22.168 (talk) 13:28, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
Taken care of. My, that Fortune fellow's dusty; a thoroughly forgotten figure. Chubbles (talk) 22:56, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, the early 1960s UK pop singers did not fare well against the beat groups. How's about Dickie Pride, Vince Eager and Rory Storm ? On another note a couple of reggae acts without an article at present are Jesse Green and Greyhound. This Jesse Green is not the U.S. pianist but a Jamaican vocalist, biggest UK hit "Nice and Slow" (1976). Two other Top 30 entries too. Greyhound was/were a Jamaican vocal group, biggest UK hit "Black and White" in 1971. Two other Top 20 entries as well. Best wishes,
- 184.108.40.206 (talk) 13:09, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
- Plus Halo James - UK band with four UK chart hits in 1989/90, including "Could Have Told You So" (#6); Top 20 album too.
- 188.8.131.52 (talk) 10:57, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
Sorry, I was on vacation and haven't gotten to these yet. I might halt a bit on the one-hitters for which there's nothing available; I'm seeing a troubling tendency toward deletion of groups which meet WP:MUSIC but don't meet criterion 1 (which essentially amounts to an editor either taking the lack of sources in the article at face value or doing a Google search and looking at the top ten results). Will get to these as I can. Chubbles (talk) 15:39, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
- OK - classic two hit wonder for you next. Chris Hill, a UK vocalist and DJ, who made the Top Ten both with "Renta Santa" and "Bionic Santa" in 1975 & 1976 (two novelty records). Regards,
- 18.104.22.168 (talk) 11:26, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- Or even Hollywood Beyond a UK male group with two hits in 1986 (including "What's The Colour of Money?" - #7). Best wishes,
- 184.108.40.206 (talk) 11:56, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
Stub's up for Hollywood Beyond - I wish All Music Guide had better coverage of UK pop music. Chubbles (talk) 16:04, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
- OK - next is Hurricane #1 - seven UK Singles Chart and two UK Albums Chart entries in the late 1990s. Regards,
- 22.214.171.124 (talk) 13:46, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
- Actually, they do have an entry at Hurricane No. 1 - the article can't be located at Hurricane #1 because the pound sign is used for internal links. Chubbles (talk) 13:59, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
- Oh yes, I thought it was strange there was not an article. Thanks,
- 22.214.171.124 (talk) 11:20, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
How's about Jimmy Justice. Two Top 10 hits in 1962 - "When My Little Girl is Smiling", "Ain't That Funny" plus Top 20 follow-up cover of "Spanish Harlem". Thanks,
18.104.22.168 (talk) 13:22, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
- Put up a page for Justice. Sad that it took so long for anyone to notice. Chubbles (talk) 18:39, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
- Thank you. Back to the 1950s for the Kaye Sisters. A UK vocal group with three Top 10 hits, including "Got-ta Have Something in the Bank, Frank", plus covers of both "Come Softly To Me" and "Paper Roses". Particularly liked the sound of another song title of theirs - "Shake Me, I Rattle" ! Regards again,
- 126.96.36.199 (talk) 12:48, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
- Or even Dave King - UK vocalist, died 17 April 2002 - with four Top 30 hits in the 1950s, including his UK Top 10 cover of "Memories Are Made of This". Thanks again,
- 184.108.40.206 (talk) 11:27, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
Those are both up, though the Dave King one is admittedly pretty thin. I'll cook up a page for The Beverley Sisters soon, as well; hard to believe that hasn't been done yet. Chubbles (talk) 21:35, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
- Well in that case, whilst we are on siblings, how's about The King Brothers. Two Top 10 hits ["A White Sport Coat (And A Pink Carnation)" and "Standing On The Corner"], out of a total of eight UK Singles Chart entries between 1957 and 1961. Regards,
- 22.214.171.124 (talk) 11:01, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
Ah, somebody had one up for the Beverley Sisters at Beverley Sisters. King Brothers are up - fascinating Japanese rock group with the same name, as well. Chubbles (talk) 14:06, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
- Try Kele Le Roc (born Kelly Biggs) with two UK Top 10 hits in 1998 and 1999 - "Little Bit of Lovin'" and "My Love". Two other minor hits in the UK Singles Chart, plus chart album in 1999. Thank you,
- 184.108.40.206 (talk) 11:55, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
Short entry up for Le Roc. Chubbles (talk) 15:10, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
- Well done. What about C. J. Lewis - two Top 10 singles ("Sweets For My Sweet" and "Everything Is Alright (Uptight)" both in 1994) plus three other Top 40 hits.
- 126.96.36.199 (talk) 13:20, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
Limmie and the Family Cookin' are the next challenge - Two Top 10 UK hits with "You Can Do Magic" and "A Walkin' Miracle" in 1973 and 1974 respectively. Best wishes,
188.8.131.52 (talk) 11:33, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
- Done! Limmie Snell already had an article, but I've put one up under Limmie & the Family Cooking. Chubbles (talk) 16:04, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
- One hit wonder time again. Try Tami Lynn whose "I'm Gonna Run Away From You" was a UK hit twice over (#4 in 1971 and #36 in 1975). Regards
- 22.214.171.124 (talk) 13:06, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
Can't believe this, but I just discovered that Ronnie Dove never had an article until yesterday. Maybe I should make another pass of the Americans, since I basically assumed anyone with five or more Top 40 hits couldn't have gone this long without an article. Chubbles (talk) 18:16, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, it probably is worth a quick trawl through. It is amazing how someone commands no article at all, whilst others of considerably lesser renown have quite sizable pages. A couple of lesser lights from the 1950s and 1960s then are David MacBeth ("Mr Blue", #18, 1959) and Frankie McBride ("Five Little Fingers", #19, 1967). I reckon you might have some difficulty finding sufficient information even for a stub.
- 184.108.40.206 (talk) 13:26, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
- Actually managed to unearth enough for a stub on Frankie McBride. Chubbles (talk) 15:34, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
- Well done. Or Rachel McFarlane, UK singer with seven UK Singles Chart entries, including six Top 40 hits (often in conjunction with Loveland) - circa 1993-6. Thanks,
- 22.214.171.124 (talk) 11:20, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
- Added that one as Loveland (band). Chubbles (talk) 13:56, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
Miki and Griff is another without an article. They had four UK hit singles between 1959 and 1963, including their version of "A Little Bitty Tear" (#16 - 1962). Cheers,
184.108.40.206 (talk) 12:28, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
- It's up at Miki & Griff. Chubbles (talk) 16:05, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
Another omission then - Gerry Monroe had six UK hit singles in the early 1970s, including two Top Ten entries, "Sally" and "My Prayer". I seem to be down to about one suggestion per month at the present time. Best wishes,
184.108.40.206 (talk) 11:58, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Short stub up at Gerry Monroe. Chubbles (talk) 14:16, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Vermont House advances pension forfeitureFebruary 16,2013MONTPELIER The Vermont House has advanced a proposal to block public employees convicted of certain crimes from collecting their full pensions.
The bill would allow a court to order the forfeiture of state or municipal employee or teacher pensions if a former employee is convicted of fraud or embezzlement.
Gov. Peter Shumlin made the proposal following revelations last year that a long-time Vermont State Police employee, Sgt. James Deeghan, had been padding his overtime reports.
Deeghan recently pleaded guilty and faces up to two years in prison and the repayment of more than $200,000 from his pension over six years.
Pensions typically are based on a persons last three years of income. The legislation would guard against pensions being paid out when that income was improperly inflated.MORE IN This Just InNORTH BENNINGTON Two public meetings, in North Bennington and Shaftsbury, have been set for...

Reviews for I Have A Dream Foundation -Richmond
I have decided to donate to the I Have a Dream Foundation of Richmond after researching the group for a UNIV 111 class. After further research, I've found out that the IHAD foundation is a 100% non-profit foundation that works to ensure that children from all income-levels have the equal opportunity to pursue education. This foundation strives to achieve its goal by providing guaranteed tuition support as well as various skills and knowledge in order to succeed in college. This foundation is currently in the process of expanding its foundation with the goal of doubling the number of its "Dreamers". I believe that if provided with tuition support, children who come from underprivileged families will be more likely to graduate college and less likely to end up involved in gangs, drugs, alcohol, and theft.

High speed signal processing depends critically on parallel processor technology. In most applications, general-purpose parallel computers cannot offer satisfactory real-time processing speed due to severe system overhead. Therefore, for real-time digital signal processing (DSP) systems, special-purpose array processors have become the only appealing alternative. In designing or using such array Processors, most signal processing algorithms share the critical attributes of regularity, recursiveness, and local communication. These properties are effectively exploited in innovative systolic and wavefront array processors. These arrays maximize the strength of very large scale integration (VLSI) in terms of intensive and pipelined computing, and yet circumvent its main limitation on communication. The application domain of such array processors covers a very broad range, including digital filtering, spectrum estimation, adaptive array processing, image/vision processing, and seismic and tomographic signal processing, This article provides a general overview of VLSI array processors and a unified treatment from algorithm, architecture, and application perspectives.

text: Hi, one of my regular theme frontpage menu links open in a new window, and when wptouch renders this in mobile mode, it opens but offers no back button (it is disabled)- at least in the iphone. Of course a new window logically doesn't have a back path, but on a desktop browser, there is always the parent window in a neighboring tab to go to; whereas on the iphone it only shows one window and the parent tab is lost. I want for the user to have some way of going back to it. Can't put a "home" link on it as it happens to be a youtube.com link to my youtube channel (out of my HTML control). Can wptouch incorporate a switch to ignore desktop "target = blank" type links? thanks

A real man loves his wife, and places his family as the most important thing in life. Nothing has brought me more peace and content in life than simply being a good husband and father.
I keep 1 round of #8 in the tube, large pattern area, likely to hit the guy even in a panic situation. Then 2 #4's, then 00 Bucks in the rest of the tube. Slugs in the side saddle as per the reasoning above.

Low recoil 00 Buck works for me. I'm not too much worried about a pattern at " in house " distances. Go pattern your gun at 5 to 10 yards and see what I mean.
I shot a box of the Fed flitecontrol
00 and got a 4" pattern at 15 yards.
At 10 yards the buckshot was just
beginning to leave the shotcup,i
could cover the pattern with a silver dollar.
This was the reduced recoil load
fired from a Mossberg 500A with
a 18.5" cylinder bore barrel.
#7 field load in the gun. Rifled slugs in sidesadle.
#7's at doorway distance is more than enough to stop the attack, without the overpenetration of hi brass stuff.
Slugs for greater distance and more precision.
If he's close enough to point n shoot (snap shoot) with a long gun, the #7 will do fine.
Far enough to aim, (time being considered) and/or plan for, then a well placed slug will be my preference.

I'm a beginning bass guitar player with a Fender Squier Affinity Jazz Bass. I'm always looking for tips and tricks on how to improve. I chose bass guitar because I have a good sense of rhythm, and I like the idea that bass is more of a "support" role for music. I think that most music sounds fuller and more rounded with a good bass sound.
Style-wise, I'm currently leaning towards rock and metal so I can learn to play some of my favorite songs.

Hi Jeff,
The form was working fine before, but now when I submit, it returns to the same page with the fields cleared, and no post created.
We didn't add any new plugins, and I can't find any setting changes that would have affected usp. In my network I've created a new blog with a basic theme and default usp settings, same problem.
Can you suggest a method to check where USP gets stuck? (wp debug didn't show any USP issues)
I have to get it working again! It's an internal staff service, but here's a temporary blog to test http://blogs.mazars.com/sandbox/sample-page

3. Separate Eating From Sleeping continued...
Some parents try to push more formula, breast milk, or baby food to try to make a baby sleep on schedule or sleep longer. This isn't good for your baby. Just like you when you've eaten too much, your overfed baby won't be comfortable enough to rest well.
Note: Never prop a baby bottle in your infant's mouth when you put her to bed. It can lead to choking, ear infections, and cavities.
4. Don't Wake Your Baby to Feed After 2 Months
If your baby is gaining weight properly, you don't have to wake her at night for feedings after 2 months. Your baby needs to find her own sleep schedule. Once she's eating more in the daytime, she doesn't need to wake and eat at night.
Here are some instances where you should wake your baby:
- She is 0 to 2 months old.
- She is sleeping more in the day than the night and missing her daytime feeds. Don't let her go more than 4 hours without eating. You may need to wake the baby up to feed at night, but it is probably better to try to change your baby's daytime habits rather than continuing to wake your baby every 4 hours at night to feed.
Your baby's pediatrician will give you advice for your baby. For premature or special-needs babies, you may need to adjust feedings.
Be a Patient Parent
Remember to keep your expectations realistic. For the first few months of your baby's life, plan for unpredictable, sporadic sleep. Try to sleep when the baby sleeps, because that may be the only rest you will be getting for some time!
If your baby's sleep pattern changes suddenly, check for symptoms of illness. It could be a warning sign of an ear infection. Or it may simply be a new turn in her development.

I am building a site for a small college that uses Google Apps as a "unified login," as well as for some specific apps. I'd like to restrict certain areas of the site so only users who have logged into the site can get to them --but I'd like the login to be tied to the Google Apps username they receive as part of the College's work.
The plugins that work in this space are more for "social," work, meaning signing in with any google account allows the reader to make comments --but this really isn't my requirement. I did see http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/google-identity-toolkit, but I'm not certain this would actually restrict users to one specific set of google identities...
Does anyone know of a plugin that's specific built to provide this type of usage?

I got this picture off facebook. Apparently, the boy in question took his babe to a fast food joint for a meal where he spent about N5,000 (approx £15) on a meal. Check out his boxers - penny wise or pound foolish? Shouldn't charity have begun at home with him getting new boxers for himself before splashing out on impressing a girl? *smh*

1. Speak gently and calmly to your wife. Never raise your voice at her, it demeans her and shows you think she is stupid.
2. NEVER expose your wife's weakness to your family or run to them whenever you have issues or anyone else cause it will come back to hunt you.
3. Never use intimidation, shout or violence to communicate your moods. Aggressive men don't make a happy home.
4. Don't compare your wife to other women. You don't know what their husbands are going through. If you attack her self esteem you will forever have a timid wiffy.
5. Don't forget that your wife married you to take care of her and the children not the reverse. Do your duties.

Thought Of The Day
A guy met one of his school mates several years after school and he could not believe his eyes; his friend was driving one of the latest sleek Mercedes Benz cars. He went home feeling awful and very disappointed in himself. He thought he was a failure. What he didn't know was that his friend was a driver and had been sent to run errands with his boss's car.
Rosemary nagged her husband always for not being romantic. She accused him of not getting down to open the car door for her as her friend Jane's husband did when he dropped her off at work. What Rosemary didn't know that Jane's husband car had a faulty door that could only be opened from the outside.
Sampson's wife went to visit one of her long time friends and was very troubled within for seeing the 3 lovely kids of her friend playing around. Her problem was that she had only one child and have been struggling to conceive for the past five years. What she didn't know was that one of those kids who was the biological child of her friend had sickle cell and had just a year to live; the other two are adopted.
Life does not have a universal measuring tool so create yours and use it.
Looking at people and comparing yourself with them will not make you better. If you knew the sort of load the chameleon carried you wouldn't ask why it takes those gentle strides. Enjoy what you have.

Police Officer Investigated For Racial Discrimination Over Kings Cross Arrest
The Metropolitan Police have issued a statement confirming that the police officer involved in the incident (see video) which took place at Kings Cross Station would be investigated for racial discrimination, undue force and police brutality.
A man of African descent was held for fare evasion and even though he said he would willingly follow the officers but the officer insisted that he should get on the floor hitting him with a baton severally. I think the force was too excessive and the officer went all out to humiliate a man who was not a threat to him or other members of society. See previous post HERE.

"Ghostbusters": 11 Things the Sequel Needs to Do to Succeed
If you ever wondered how actor Clark Gregg prepared himself for Agent Coulson's death scene — or, rather, "death" scene — in The Avengers, you only need to listen to KCRW's "Guest DJ Project." Hint: It's music, but any additional information is probably above your clearance level.
For this week's episode of the Los Angeles radio show, the star of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. compiles a track list that includes Parliament-Funkadelic's "Give Up the Funk (Tear the Roof Off the Sucker)," Public Enemy's "Caught, Can We Get a Witness" and Radiohead's "Go to Sleep."
KCRW, a National Public Radio affiliate that broadcasts in the Los Angeles area, regularly hosts celebrity disc jockeys, and in the past have welcomed Mark Waid and Jimmy Gownley. This week Action Comics writer Grant Morrison spun a few tunes for the station, including "The Queen Is Dead" by The Smiths, "Mogadishu" by Baader Meinhof ("this would have been the theme song of The Invisibles") and "Blue Flowers" by Dr Octagon:
The next song is "Blue Flowers" by Dr Octagon, and this one's here to represent Hip Hop, because I do listen to quite a bit of Hip Hop. But this one was kind of what got me into it back in the 90's. And it came out at the time when I was working on Invisibles and we had a character in Invisibles called Jim Crow. He was kind of a master of voodoo Hip Hop, or trip hop, and someone wrote to me and said, 'You know, you've got this Jim Crow character, and this is the music he would make.' And they sent me this album, and I just was blown away by it.
Again, to hear something so intelligent, it was a Sci-Fi album but it was Hip hop. It sounded like comic books, it sounded like my favorite science fiction, it sounded like the weirdest television show you'd ever seen. So again, it's on the psychedelic theme, I mean, this is Hip Hop's finest expression of psychedelia, "Blue Flowers", and the bizarre trip to the park is very much in the Lennon mold, but for a new generation.
You can hear the whole thing and read a transcript on the KCRW site.

Sales in the under-$400,000 bracket last year made up more
than 50% of the total at 3919, but in May this year declined
to 44.7% at 2939.
While median prices rose almost 10%, by $38,000 to $430,000,
more than 76% of that was credited to sales in Auckland and
ASB economist Christina Leung said the decline in house sales
since the loan to ratio (LVR) restrictions took effect in
October had been concentrated at the lower end of the market,
suggesting the restrictions had had a greater effect on
first-home buyers.
The data from the Real Estate Institute of New Zealand
(REINZ) yesterday said national sales of 6572 homes in May
were down 14.8% on a year ago.
Otago sales dropped 19.3%, from 285 to 230 for the month, and
Central Otago Lakes dropped 10.7% from 122 to 109, but both
regions posted median price gains.
Otago was up 2.3% at $237,750 and Central Otago Lakes was up
7.3% to $499,000, the latter underpinned by Queenstown
prices, up 5.2% to $598,000.
REINZ chief executive Helen O'Sullivan said all regions had a
decline in sales in May, compared with 12 months ago.
She said the May decline in sales below $400,000 followed a
fall in the same bracket of 31.6% from April 2013 to April
2014, which might indicate fewer sales in lower price
brackets since the LVR restrictions were imposed.

My sisters and I met in Austin for a girl's weekend for our birthdays. Room extremely clean and updated nicely. Large too. 3 ladies had plenty of room. Everything was pretty clean in lobby/hotel. Grounds looked nice too but there was a group of about 50+ teenage boys staying in hotel so outside pool/restroom area was very busy and not very clean but I truly believe it was this particular weekend because staff worked very hard to keep areas clean and maintained. I wish someone would have mentioned not to play "elevator tag" because getting up and down elevator was very delayed because kids were playing around on them and ultimately they broke and only 1 elevator was working, however, it was fixed later that day. Location is great and easy to get in/out. Staff were all friendly. I'd stay again.

The Party May Be Over for These Tricycles Built for Seven
BY GARY SHAPIRO - Staff Reporter of the Sun
Is the party over for PartyBike? The owner of Peddle Pushers Limited, which runs a fleet of red, seven-seated giant tricycles often seen traversing Times Square, faces a bumpy ride after the Police Department impounded 14 of its 15 vehicles in the city.
Now if they could just figure out an excuse to "impound" the double-decker tour buses, we'd be thrilled.

"Leaving Crisfield" Crisfield Travelogue by grandmaR
Crisfield Travel Guide: 48 reviews and 179 photos
Picture taken coming in 2004
Woke up early and looked at the weather reports (local Washington TV stations, the Weather Channel and NOAA) and discussed whether to go to Tangier or not. We were pretty sure we could get there as the rain was not "scheduled" (predicted) to start until afternoon. But we know that being in a marina someplace when it is pouring rain all the time isn't particularly fun. So we decided to see if we could get back to our home marina at Point Lookout before the weather got too bad.
The power boat group fired up their engines waking the whole marina about 6:30. We took our line off the piling so that the power boat next to us could get underway. We ourselves started our engine (much more quietly except for the oil pressure alarm which always sounds when the engine is off) and then Bob took off the lines while I backed out of the slip about 7:30. As we motored by the folks that were anchored out, I went out on deck.
Note - the big ship in the inset of Coast Guard Station is named J. Millard Tawes for the former governor.
In the marina, we could hear the announcements over the PA system from this CG station. The DNR (Department of Natural Resources) office is on the left, and there is a boat ramp, fish cleaning station and bathrooms on the left of this location.
As we went out the channel, I took photos of the town from the water (I had been too busy looking for the marina to do that before). Some of these pictures are in the Tips section. For instance the photo of the marina is under Sports Tips.
Ahead of us was the blue hulled boat with a name that started with TS that was outside on the T-head. (A T-head is the end of the dock where the last finger piers are extended all the way to the end of the slip i.e. forms a T with the main dock as the stem. So it makes one big long dock that you can only tie to one side instead of to pilings on each side.)
The blue hulled boat ahead of us appeared to be somewhat confused, or else aground or both. Another boat (I think MIRA) which had been anchored was following us (below).
This picture was taken when leaving the Somers Cove channel in 2004. It was nice sunny weather and the picture was better. However the sign was not as readable, so I pasted in the sign from the 2003 picture
We later heard the boat with the name that started TS on the radio (and I still don't know how to pronounce the name - the word she said on the radio bore no relation to the letters I remember) calling Parks Marina (which is on Tangier Island and doesn't answer the radio) and then calling the Smith Island Marina which is an entirely different island altogether.
Bob pulled out the jib and ran the refrigeration. The refrigeration is a dual system and runs either off the engine or off 110 dockside power.
MIRA was cutting the corners and was soon out of sight. We were able to motor sail a little bit.
We put up the side curtains because was starting to rain, and I fixed Bob a cheese lettuce and tomato sandwich. For awhile the radar showed that we were under our own little rain cloud which appeared to be centered on our mast and was following us like Joe Bfstk in L'il Abner.
We came around the end of Smith Island and saw the target ship which we had never seen before. Bob thought it was a warship or a menhaden boat, but menhaden fishing is not allowed in Maryland.
Eventually we figured it out. I had the route going south of the ship, but Bob wanted to go north so we went north which was longer. We had enough wind for a very short time that the boat even heeled a bit.
We had zero wind after we got into the Potomac, but we had quartering seas so Bob left the main up to keep us steady.
We got into our slip by 1430 after 36.7 nm and 7 hours. It would have been even shorter to go through Tangier. The heavy rain held off until later.
As I walked down the dock to get a cart, one of the guys sitting on the dock next to a group of SeaRays said, "Didn't I see you in Crisfield". It turned out their group was on the other side of the group with the BIG motor boats from Middle River. They had left at 10:15, and gotten here way before us.
After we unloaded the boat and got home, I did email, and my password was perfectly OK as I had thought.

Estimation of Reverberation Time without Test Signals
Some audio systems such as sound localizers and hearing-aids can be affected in their performance by strong reverberation. Their algorithms can however adapt their algorithms if as estimate of the reverberation time is available. Usually, those systems are not able to measure the reverberation time of the room using test signals. The only available way is to use the captured signals to estimate the reverberation time. This article presents a method to estimate the reverberation time of a room from detecting the "tails" of the received sounds.

Game On Dude wins San Antonio for Baffert, Torre
ARCADIA, Calif. -- Game On Dude overpowered three rivals to defend his title in the $200,000 San Antonio Stakes by 6½ lengths at Santa Anita on Sunday.
Ridden by Hall of Famer Mike Smith, Game On Dude ran 1 1/8 miles in 1:47.53 and paid $2.10 and $2.10 at 1-9 odds.
Trained by Hall of Famer Bob Baffert, Game On Dude is co-owned by retired Los Angeles Dodgers manager Joe Torre, who was on hand.
"He just seems to be such a great competitor," Torre said. "I'm not an authority on horses. I sit next to Baffert whenever I can, and when he told me at the top of the stretch that he's got plenty left, I sort of relaxed a little bit."
Game On Dude broke sharply and was immediately engaged by 12-1 longshot Basmati.
"I got pressured, even more so than if it was a full field believe it or not," Smith said. "In these short fields, people make you do things because it's more of a match race. He has a high, high cruising speed and you just let him get into his rhythm whether that's up front or off the lead.
"I let him do his thing and he ran brilliant. He stood up over on the turn, took one breath and turned around like it was nothing. They were running quick, but that's just him."
Baffert said Game On Dude would be pointed to the $750,000 Santa Anita Handicap on March 2, which he won in 2011.
Clubhouse Ride returned $2.80. Make Music for Me was another 13 3/4 lengths back in third. There was no show wagering because of the four-horse field. With $287,272 bet to place on Game On Dude, there was a minus place pool of $53,241.
The victory, worth $120,000, increased Game On Dude's career earnings to $3,252,158, with 11 wins in 23 starts.
The 6-year-old gelding has four Grade 1 wins to his credit.
"This is an extremely talented horse," Smith said. "He might even be better this year."
