This one is for all of you who do not believe in a God or a higher being of any kind...and Im asking because I am actually curious. Where do you believe your soul came from then? And what do you believe happens to your soul once you die ?
If im understanding this right this is my response...there is a whole debate about when you will be judged. Some believe it wont be until judgement day. Some believe you are judged at death. It raises all kinds of questions I dont pretend to know the answers to. And theres really no math to it its just a belief.
All religions claim that God is just--his judgements are supposed to be so by their very nature. Is it just for people to be held responsible, on their own, for their eternal fate in a finite amount of time (and with limited human intelligence)? The math says that in the face of eternity, we literally have no time at all to make our case for our eternal destiny. How is that just?

In response to the statment that Einstein was not an atheist.....in looking for a legitamat source there seems to be a debate about just this. Many believe he had faith...many believe in the end he did not. So he may have been a poor source to state. But its not like that changes my point at all. Scientists can in fact believe in God. They are not required to be atheist.

If your praying just to get what you want it is....if your praying and giving thanks or for guidance absolutely not. Praying is not just for stuff. Like they say... if you only pray when your in trouble, your in trouble.
I was referring to the pp who was making God out to be the Big ATM in the Sky. Petitionary prayer, to me, is pointless when made to God who has the outcome of every event determined ahead of time.

Because of what will happen if I dont. My family believes. I am what they call a 'miracle child' and they have witnessed firsthand many 'miracles' within our own family. If they knew I wasnt a Christian or if I stopped going to church, my family will take it as a slap in their face. I would probably be thought of as being possesed. I will have to deal with alot of drama and heartache, if I dont get outright disowned. The pentecostals I know believe in the whole 'grow up a child in the way they should go bit'. They would feel like a failure because of that, then they would believe Im going to hell. Its easier for me to just go with the flow and go to church than to have arguments about why I stopped going etc etc.
I really dont get anything out of it other than making my family happy. They are very very religious and their religion isnt just apart of their life, its basically who they are (my parents).
In case you are wondering I live with my parents.
This is heartbreaking, and one reason I don't get the appeal of religion. I'm so sorry, PP, that you can't just be YOU for fear of retaliation.
"If people are good only because they fear punishment, and hope for a reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed." ~ Albert Einstein
Well Einstein believed in The Secret, which is also believing in a higher force. So he believed in something.
Okay, but that doesn't equate to belief in your god.

The U.S. Federal Government approved $1.6 million in biomedical research funds for the Defense Department's Cancer Immunotherapy and Cell Therapy Initiative, which is intended to support research into new applications for Biovest's cell-manufacturing device. The aim is to use AutovaxID™ to cost-effectively and efficiently manufacture difficult-to-produce therapeutic proteins and personalized vaccines.
"With this expected critical funding support, we intend to further develop AutovaxID to be capable of growing patient-specific cells that could be used to rebuild damaged tissue or organs," says chairman and CEO, Steven Arikian, M.D. "The potential applications following trauma or injury are numerous, such as for the production of autologous skin for burn repair, growth of bone for fracture repair, and/or the production of tissue for plastic reconstruction of severe injuries."
AutovaxID is an automated single-use, closed-system disposable bioreactor. It is currently use to manufacture Biovest's personalized anticancer vaccine, BiovaxID®, which targets B-cell blood cancers such as non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

College hockey notes: PEA product Fenkell gives Bowdoin net advantage
In Division III hockey, only Bowdoin College and three other teams in the nation made it to the start of December undefeated.
At goalie-rich Bowdoin, the number three takes on an additional meaning, as well.
The Polar Bears (7-0-1, 3-0-1 NESCAC) are allowing just 2.25 goals a game. A big reason for that is the play of the men protecting their net; Phillips Exeter Academy product Max Fenkell (2.59 goals-against average, .920 save percentage), a sophomore, and junior Steve Messina (2.00 GAA, .925 save percentage) have both been stellar.
"It starts in goal," said Terry Meagher, who's in his 30th year as Bowdoin's head coach. "We knew that the competition would be good. It's just turned into an incredibly healthy one."
They haven't yet, but if Messina or Fenkell should take a step back, Meagher said he is more than willing to insert senior Connor Shannon of Stratham, a public-school product who played at Exeter High School through 2007, did a stint in juniors with some excellent New Hampshire Junior Monarchs teams, and has played well in limited duty over the years for Bowdoin.
"If they have a tough stretch we can put Connor in with no hesitation," said Meagher.
The Polar Bears were regarded as one of the preseason favorites in the NESCAC after going 16-6-3 last year and returning proven contributors throughout their lineup. But it's been the guys between the pipes leading the way, even if their styles don't match.
The 5-foot-8 Fenkell's road to Bowdoin was a meandering one. After a stellar prep career at Avon Old Farms and Exeter, he moved on to Division I Colgate. But after he didn't crack that lineup he opted for a year of junior hockey in British Columbia before arriving at Bowdoin and pushing Messina, the incumbent, from the start.
He's one of three Phillips Exeter products on the roster. Senior Daniel Weiniger, who did a post-grad year at Exeter, is a former NESCAC Rookie of the Year and annually one of the team's top scorers; freshman Matt Rubinoff spent last season centering pro prospect Matt Beattie.
"Max and Steve have different types of games, but they're sponges, even around each other," said Meagher. "Steve's athletic, a little more of a wanderer. Max is efficient, good with his hands and technically good.
"The bottom line in all this is that if your team believes in the attitude and the capability of your goaltending, it allows you to play a game confidently," said Meagher.
So far, so good.
Knights moves
While Army has embraced the return of senior captain Cheyne Rocha of Rye to its blueline this season, it's a sophomore from the Seacoast who's also had a big hand in the team's turnaround.
Josh Richards, a left wing from Lee who prepped at Phillips Exeter, is tied for fourth on the team in scoring with 3-3-6 totals. He had a point in a pair of hard-fought, 3-2 wins last week, at Bentley and at home against AIC.
"He gained valuable experience last year, but he's playing with so much more confidence this year," said Army coach Brian Riley. "We're not a team with all these offensive threats, but he's certainly a guy that we count on from the offensive side of things."
At 5-6-1 (5-2-1 Atlantic Hockey), the Black Knights have already surpassed their win total from last year, which saw Rocha sidelined for most of the year with a broken leg.
History repeating
Next time around, the University of New Hampshire may want to tighten its grip.
The last time UNH was ranked No. 1 in the nation was Jan. 29, 2007 — the same day reigning Kentucky Derby champ Barbaro was euthanized — and it was strictly a one-and-done. Maine came into a sold-out Verizon Wireless Arena that Friday, pinned a 4-2 loss on Kevin Regan and the hosts and, when the polls came out next Monday, the Wildcats were down to No. 3.
The Wildcats (11-2-2, 8-2-1 Hockey East) followed a similar pattern with Thursday's 3-2 loss to Boston University at the Whittemore Center, three days after moving up to No. 1 in the polls.
With a win, UNH would have had a great chance of securing that No. 1 ranking through the holidays. It doesn't play again until the Ledyard Bank Classic at Dartmouth Dec. 30-31.
Ice chips
Paddy Murphy, who led York High School to the Maine Class B championship game in 2010, has a goal and two assists through six games in his freshman year at Division II Franklin Pierce, and is second on the team with 14 penalty minutes. The Ravens are one of just a handful of D-II programs that compete under the Northeast-10 umbrella, and play a competitive schedule of NE-10 and Division III opponents. ...; UNH completed its van Riemsdyk recruiting hat trick when 16-year-old Brendan van Riemsdyk, a 6-foot-3 junior forward at Christian Brothers (N.J.) Academy, made a verbal commitment to the school last month.

Paulson Urges Next U.S. Leader to Continue China Talks
With the U.S. presidential election just two weeks away, Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson on Tuesday encouraged the nation's next leader to continue a series of high-level discussions with China.
In a speech heavy on advice for a new president who will face an especially tricky Treasury Department transition, Paulson said: "Today more than ever the world is looking to China to be a big contributor to global economic growth."
Paulson's remarks were the keynote address for a gala hosted by the National Committee on U.S.-China Relations, which was honoring him in New York for his contribution to the advancement of U.S.-China relations.
While China is feeling the effects of the global financial crisis, "its economy is expected to continue to be an important engine for global growth during this period," he said.
Paulson said failures in the U.S. financial sector have caused some in China to consider slowing down reforms encouraged by the U.S., but he suggested that wouldn't be the right move. "There is a great opportunity for China to learn from our significant mistakes and move forward with reforms that have the potential to produce important gains for China and its people," he said.
Paulson touted U.S.-China relations as being more productive than ever before, thanks largely to the Strategic Economic Dialogue launched by the Bush administration in 2006. "The SED has found new and constructive ways to address some of the most important matters in our economic relationship," he said.
The next SED meeting is scheduled for December in Beijing and will likely be Paulson's last as Treasury secretary. – Meena Thiruvengadam

Lymph nodes are part of the lymph system, which carries lymph fluid, nutrients, and waste material between the body tissues and the bloodstream. The lymph system is also an important part of the immune system, the body's defense system against disease.
The lymph nodes (sometimes called lymph glands) filter lymph fluid as it flows through them, trapping bacteria, viruses, and other foreign substances, which are then destroyed by special white blood cells called lymphocytes. Lymph nodes may be found singly or in groups; they may be as small as the head of a pin or as large as an olive. Groups of lymph nodes can be felt in the neck, groin, and underarms. Many lymph nodes in the body can't be felt.
When a part of the body is infected, the nearby lymph nodes become swollen as they collect and destroy the infecting organisms. For example, if a person has a throat infection, the lymph nodes in the neck may swell and become tender.
Cancer can spread through the lymph system.

AbstractThe measurement of the leaf temperature of forests or agricultural plants is an important technique for the monitoring of the physiological state of crops. The infrared thermometer is a convenient device due to its fast response and nondestructive measurement technique. Nowadays, a novel infrared thermocouple, developed with the same measurement principle of the infrared thermometer but using a different detector, has been commercialized for non-contact temperature measurement. The performances of two-kinds of infrared thermocouples were evaluated in this study. The standard temperature was maintained by a temperature calibrator and a special black cavity device. The results indicated that both types of infrared thermocouples had good precision. The error distribution ranged from −1.8 °C to 18 °C as the reading values served as the true values. Within the range from 13 °C to 37 °C, the adequate calibration equations were the high-order polynomial equations. Within the narrower range from 20 °C to 35 °C, the adequate equation was a linear equation for one sensor and a two-order polynomial equation for the other sensor. The accuracy of the two kinds of infrared thermocouple was improved by nearly 0.4 °C with the calibration equations. These devices could serve as mobile monitoring tools for in situ and real time routine estimation of leaf temperatures.

More Changes Underway At The Judicial Confirmation Network
A few weeks ago the right-wing Judicial Confirmation Network, which was founded to help ensure the confirmation of President Bush's judicial nominees, announced that it was changing its name to the Judicial Crisis Network to better reflect the fact that, well, getting judges confirmed was no longer its primary mission now that President Obama was doing the nominating.
Now it appears as if JCN is undergoing even more changes, as longtime Chief Counsel and spokesperson Wendy Long has left and been replaced by Carrie Severino:
Today the Judicial Crisis Network (Formerly: The Judicial Confirmation Network/www.judicialnetwork.com) added Carrie Severino as the new Chief Counsel and Policy Director. Mrs. Severino will serve as JCN's chief spokesperson as well as provide legal analysis and strategic guidance. Previously Mrs. Severino served as law clerk to U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas and most recently was an Olin/Searle Fellow and a Dean's Visiting Scholar at Georgetown Law Center.
"The addition of Carrie Severino allows JCN to build on our leadership role in the fight to confirm only highly qualified individuals that apply the law fairly to the U.S. Supreme Court and allows JCN to broaden our mission to confront the radical legal and legislative threats facing the country on the state and local level," said Gary A. Marx, Executive Director, Judicial Crisis Network.
"Reining in the activist judges is an enormous job, but the American people are up to the task, and we at JCN will certainly do our part to defend the Constitution and the Founders' vision of a fair and impartial judiciary." said Mrs. Severino.
Mrs. Severino also served as law clerk to Judge David B. Sentelle of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. She is a graduate of Harvard Law School, cum laude, of Duke University, and holds a Master's degree in Linguistics from Michigan State University.
Additionally, JCN would like to recognize and thank Wendy Long for her five years of dedicated service as counsel. Wendy has decided to devote her time to her family and other causes, but JCN would not be where it is today without her hard work and sacrifice.

The girls from St. Marys have accomplished one of their goals for this season - winning a third consecutive Little Kanawha Conference Night of Champions title.
Now, it is up to the Blue Devil boys to make it a clean sweep by the Pleasants County school when they take on South Division champ Braxton County in a rematch of the 1996 title game this Saturday at the Braxton County Armory.
Since the Little Kanawha Conference elected to decide its basketball championships on the court with the annual NOC, no school has been able to lay claim to both titles during the same season. That could change with a St. Marys win, however.
Mark Barnhart's squad has been the toast of Class A this winter, compiling an 18-0 mark and running the table in the LKC's North Division (12-0). There have been bumps in the road, but the Blue Devils have answered every challenge behind the play of senior K.D. Arnett, as well as Derek Renner, Andrew Cosper and Garrett Wichterman.
The challenge ahead, however, is a huge one as St. Marys must capture the league's final winter championship by taking on an Eagles' squad that will be playing on its home court. Not an easy task to say the least, but this group has been overcoming challenges since their days of playing together in the pee wee leagues.
The quartet was in the Mid-Ohio Valley last week as part of the Boys & Girls Club of Parkersburg's 16th annual Steak & Burger Dinner in Vienna.
Jenkins appears to be recovered from his latest knee injury. This one forced him to miss the entire 2011 season and has driven him in his workouts to help the Mountaineers become the best team in their new conference - the Big 12 - next fall.
The stories for Lindamood, Molinari and Nutter are just as impressive when one remembers that all went to WVU as invited walk-ons only to earn starting berths on the school's special teams.
Nutter possibly could be the poster child for what hard work can do for you as the former Parkersburg South standout parlayed his ability as a long snapper into a three-year starting job with the old gold and blue and now stands one step away from attaining his biggest dream - playing in the National Football League.
Long snappers rarely are among the players drafted, but that doesn't mean that the unique ability isn't recognized by NFL coaches as Nutter already has had several inquires surrounding his possible availability.
As for Lindamood and Molinari, both had to overcome adversities during the 2011 campaign, but found a way to get themselves onto the field for the Mountaineers and head in spring drills as players who will be right in the thick of the competition for the starting fullback and punter jobs, respectively.

Initial Certification
Diagnostic Radiology
Initial certification information is for candiates who have not been previously certified in diagnostic radiology.
The Certificate
As you progress through your residency and after completion of training, you will take examinations to qualify for your initial certification in diagnostic radiology.
If you choose to subspecialize after you receive your diagnostic radiology certificate, you can also take exams to qualify for subspecialty certificates in the following disciplines:
Hospice and Palliative Medicine
Nuclear Radiology
Pediatric Radiology
Vascular and Interventional Radiology
Your certificate remains valid contingent as long as you are meeting the requirements of Maintenance of Certification (MOC).
Throughout the period for which you hold certification, you are expected to continue learning and improving your skills in a personalized program (see ABR MOC information). Your progress will be tracked annually via a rolling three-year "look-back."
Your initial certification status and MOC status will be publicly reported on our website, as well as on the official public reporting website of the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS), www.certificationmatters.org. This shows interested parties that you are keeping up with the latest developments in your field.
A certificate granted by this Board does not of itself confer, or purport to confer, any degree or legal qualifications, privileges, or license to practice diagnostic radiology, nor does it confer an ability to legally perform procedures with radioactive materials regulated by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), licensure for which can only be granted by the NRC.
The Examinations
The Core Examination is an image-rich, computer-based examination, offered after 36 months of residency training; it covers 18 subspecialty and modality categories. The exam must be passed overall and in each category to receive a passing result. For more information, go to the Core Examination page.
The Certifying Examination, given 15 months after completion of diagnostic residency training, is also computer based and image rich, and it includes five modules. Three modules are clinical practice areas and may be chosen by the examinee to fit his or her interests, experience, and training. The other two modules, Essentials of Diagnostic Radiology and Noninterpretive Skills, will be taken by all examinees. For more information, go to the Certifying Examination page.
Content for the Radioisotope Safety Exam (RISE) is integrated into the Core and Certifying exams. After the Certifying Exam has been passed, the RISE will be scored. The RISE result will not affect the pass results for either exam.
Information for those who have completed residency and are seeking employment:
The ABR recognizes that some candidates seeking employment are concerned about potential confusion by employers due to the new transition to a final certifying examination 15 months after residency ends. If you are completing your residency and are seeking employment, the ABR has provided a letter clarifying the new process and describing the mandatory waiting period before certification may be earned. You may provide this letter with your application materials to a potential employer. Click here for a copy of the letter.
Time Limitation for Attaining Initial Certification (Board Eligibility)
Candidates have specific time limits for remaining eligible to be initially certified by the ABR and to maintain their status as board eligible. Board eligibility for those currently in training will begin at the completion of diagnostic radiology residency and extend for six years. For international medical graduates (IMGs), seeking initial certification through an alternative IMG pathway, "completion of training" is defined as the end of the four-year period outlined in the Sponsoring Department Agreement.
For candidates who have already completed training, the board eligibility period ends according to the following schedule:
|Completion of Training
|Termination of Board Eligibility
|2004 or before
|December 31, 2014
|December 31, 2015
|December 31, 2016
|2011 and afterward
|Six full calendar years from completion of training
After the period of board eligibility ends, candidates failing to successfully complete the initial certification process will no longer be considered by the ABR as board eligible, will no longer be permitted to designate themselves as such for communications or credentialing purposes, and will no longer be reported as such to external agencies in verification letters. Please click here for more information on board eligibility and reinstatement of board-eligible status.
Questions related to these or other board certification issues can be addressed to email@example.com, or by calling (520) 790-2900. To read the board eligible policy, please click here.

how long is the pill good for . does it expire
Severe nausea. After a few days still had all syptoms. upset stomach.
this medicine was for my 7 year old daughter. The pharmacy made a huge mistake by saying she needed 3 tsp x a day of this medicine for 10 days. I called my doctor because we were out ofter 4 days She was only supposed to get 1.5 tsp 2 x a day. I am furious with the pharmacy for this
The doctor prescribed 2 tablets (total of 1000mg) twice a day. After taking it for a few days I noticed the urine had a few bublles (like foam) I develod flank pain and stopped it at the 7th day. Two weeks later I developed a painful UTI with blood and severe diarrhea. I had never had UTIs, I feel that PCN caused a superinfection.

I take this drug as a preventative when having my teeth cleaned due to heart valve leakage.The last time I took it I had the problem of diarreaha and had to replace good bacteria in my colon with other meds. I don't want that problem again and don't know whether to take it again.

Up at the plate was the left-handed-swinging Heath Nicholas, Marietta/Belpre Post 64/495's leadoff batter.
It was the bottom of the first inning in the opening game of an American Legion baseball twinbill at Legion Field Monday. On the hill for visiting Cambridge Post 84 was right-hander Tim Chumney, who was staked to a 3-0 advantage in the top of the frame.
Winding up, Chumney delivered a pitch homeward. Swinging late at it but making contact was Nicholas.
Almost in slow motion, the foul ball lifted, like a missile, towards an open Legion Field press box on the third-base side of the diamond.
If not for a thermo cup, sitting on the window ledge, the baseball would've entered the press area. Instead, it ricocheted off the cup and back onto the playing field.
The thermo cup, as it was, happened to be right in front of me, and after taking a direct hit, iced tea splashed all over my legal writing pad - and me.
I'd like to be able to say that my whole life flashed in front of me, but it didn't. It happened so fast.
If this had occurred in a "dunk 'im" at a carnival, Nicholas probably would've been awarded a prize.
Fortunately, Anthony Lima of WTAP, to my left, and photographer Mitch Casey of the Marietta Times, to my right, both were spared.
We all kind of nervously chuckled at the incident, and wondered where the baseball was.
Thing is, I can't speak for them, but I felt kind of vulnerable and in the line of fire, because foul balls really can be dangerous.
Several years ago, at Legion Field, I witnessed a lady get hit, sitting in a lawn chair, up along the third-base side of the field and in foul territory. Where she was positioned, she appeared to be safe from any batted ball.
Once, over at City Park's Bennett Stump Field in Parkersburg, a foul ball over the backstop screen actually glanced off a woman, carrying a baby. That was really scary, but everything turned out OK.
Then, at Jacobs Field (now Progressive Field) in Cleveland, a late-swinging, line-drive foul ball into the box seats nailed a man, sitting with two boys. He was hurt and had to be attended to by ushers - and eventually escorted to a first aid station.
The man and the two boys never did return to the game.
At major league ballparks, foul balls very rarely reach the press box because of the distance.
But once at Three Rivers Stadium in Pittsburgh, a foul ball actually flew into the press box. I can still see the sports scribe, reaching out with both hands to try to get it. It was amusing.
Back at Legion Field, the thermo cup of course suffered the only punishment. But amazingly, it only had a medium-sized dent at the base. Still, the seal was broken, my wife says, and not useable.
Makes me wonder, though...if the thermo cup hadn't been where it was, would the foul ball have hit me - or Lima?

When I go to certain web pages the page "appears" to be fully loaded but the hourglass icon never goes away. I believe it is hanging on the last image of the page.
Anyone heard of this before?
I will file a bug report as well.
I don't have any blocks set up and I don't think p;ugins are the cause either. Cpanel was giving me the same thing today. I haven't analyzed the code but I don't see anything fancy on a cpanel page.
I'll be taking some notes on what sites do this from now on.
I want to keep my opera!
You can try submitting the bug to Opera, but don't hold your breath - until Google decides to care there is little you can really do.
Common places for this problem for me are Google Search and many .NET sites.

Five laboratories contributed 9,668 informative meioses from 30 loci. Twelve loci typed by at least two laboratories were used to construct a consensus linkage map. The sex-averaged consensus map covered 69.9 cM. The female map was 63.8 cM and the male map was 71.8 cM. All 30 loci were subsequently yused to construct a comprehensive map. The sex-averaged comprehensive map was 73.3 cM, while the female and male maps were 64.0 cM and 75.4 cM, respectively. Average distance between loci in the comprehensive map was 2.44 cM.

Does LLC protect a business in a divorce?
If I have been working a business by myself, can I form an LLC and have my business protected in case of a divorce?
Are you already married?
If you're already married, there isn't a whole lot you can do to protect your assets in case of a future divorce.
Divorce laws differ by state, but generally, you are able to keep what is termed "separate property" in a divorce. Separate property is money obtained prior to the marriage, or by gift or inheritance.
The trick with separate property is if you commingle it with marital property, it can become marital property.
So, if you get a big inheritance after your marriage, and deposit it in a joint checking account with your wife, and both you and your wife are putting money in and taking money out of that account, your inheritance is likely to become marital property.
The same goes with your interest in your LLC–it's no different than if you buy stock during your marriage. It's likely to become marital property.
Now, some people form companies and LLCs to fraudulently conceal assets in a divorce, but I'm not going to go down that road.
Comments for Does LLC protect a business in a divorce?
I would like you to answer how a business owner could use an LLC to hide assets from a spouse.
I was divorced in Wisconsin in 2008 and was awarded spousal support for 9 years. I am half way through the 9 year timeline and my spouse has just remarried and is forming an LLC with the new spouse as a partner. Will/could this impact my spousal support?

USC trails at halftime; Dedmon sprains knee
USC is on its way to losing another game after losing yet another player to injury.
The Trojans, who have lost eight in a row, trail visiting Colorado, 37-26, at halftime of their game at Galen Center.
Dewayne Dedmon, USC's promising 7-foot sophomore, suffered a sprained left knee at the 15:43 mark of the first half. After hopping to the bench, he headed to the locker room to be examined. He is not expected to return.
USC already has lost four players to season-ending injuries, including starters Jio Fontan and Aaron Fuller.

More new goodies
It feels like we have new products arriving at the studio all the time at the moment, it's very exciting. Today I have added 3 new goodies to the shops.
My firm favourite is this sweet Belle & Boo apron, it fills me with feelings of nostalgia for my childhood, thoughts of Holly Hobbie, flat sally cakes and licking the bowl. Thanks to Lucy Woodruff for her beautiful photos, I think she captures to mood perfectly.
The apron is £18.50 and has a pretty pocket on the front big enough to pop a Boo cookie cutter in!
Next we have a LARGE dress up Belle and Boo, the same size as the display ones we have been using for our shows. They really are fab, standing 37cm tall made from sturdy card, with a fold out flap on the back so they can stand. Belle comes with 4 outfits and there is a cosy scarf for Boo and here on the blog if you scroll down you will find 4 more free outfits. At just £10 I think it makes a lovely present.
Lastly more wooden Boo's but this time he is a decoration hang him from your Christmas tree or mantle piece or like me all year round as a light pull!
We have approx 34 mtrs of the Christmas fabric arriving in a couple of weeks, that is all we could get printed before January, so keep your eyes peeled and I will let you know on the blog as soon as it has arrived. Bye for now.

Cranberries are a great nutritional choice. One cup of whole raw cranberries has 47 calories and provides 4g of fiber. They are also an excellent source of vitamin C and contain antioxidants and flavonoids. In addition there is research to support the claim that cranberry juice can help to prevent urinary tract infections.
To make your own sauce, boil fresh cranberries in water and add sugar or artificial sweetener to suit your taste. It is ready when the cranberries pop
Green beans! They are a delicious and versatile vegetable, low in calories and a good source of vitamin A and C. But we smother them each year with cream soups and fried onions! This year you can lighten that recipe by using lower fat and sodium cream soups and top the casserole with chopped onions. To add even more texture, add some slivered almonds to the top when you have only 5-10 minutes left on the clock. These changes will save you 25-50 calories per serving. You could also un-casserole the green beans and simply sauté them in olive oil and toss with a squeeze of lemon juice.
Nuts remind me of holidays for sure--they are everywhere and they are a wonderful snack or ingredient high in monounsaturated fat, high in omega-3 fatty acids and, yes, high in calories. I remind you of that not to scare you away from nuts, but to help you remember portion control. If you end up with a lot of nuts and can not use them up quickly, remember to store them in the freezer for longer shelf life.
Chocolate: I find myself always mentioning chocolate around this time of year. I love it, and so do most people I know. It is just delicious, and dark chocolate does have nutritional value. It is of course also high in fat and sugar, so to get the most nutrition with the least fat and sugar, choose chocolate with 70% cocoa.

The Norwegian daily VG quoted one of Breivik's friends saying that he had become a rightwing extremist in his late 20s and was now a strong opponent of multi-culturalism, expressing strong nationalistic views in online debates. Breivik had talked admiringly about conversations he had had with unnamed English Defence League members and the organisation Stop the Islamification of Europe over the success of provocative street actions leading to violence.
"I have on some occasions had discussions with SIOE and EDL and recommended them to use certain strategies," he wrote two years ago. "The tactics of the EDL are now to 'lure' an overreaction from the Jihad Youth/Extreme-Marxists, something they have succeeded in doing several times already." Contacted about the allegation by email by last night the EDL had not answered.
According the website Atlantic.com, Anders Behring Breivik expressed extremist Islamophobic views on forums and criticised immigration policies. He argued on a Swedish news website that the media were not critical enough about Islam and claimed that Geert Wilders' Party for Freedom in the Netherlands was the only 'true' party of conservatives.
Norway mass murderer Anders Behring Breivik is the white face of the Anti-Muslim right wing nut world inspired by Pamela Geller of "Atlas Shrugs" and Robert Spencer of "Jihad Watch", told you so about these people.
Time for the FBI to shut down Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer's SIOA hate macine. SIOA/SIOE/EDL Neo Nazi Summit in Europe this Summer Robert Spencer and Pamela Geller To Officiate The Hate Fest in France Que Up The Riot Police.
I (Anders Behring Breivik) feel it is important to create a pan-European platform for rhetoric / objectives / policy analysis / research of historical factors relevant to so and transfer this knowledge to every nation. It pan-Europeiske/US environment Robert Spencer (Jihad Watch), Fjordman, Atlas (Pamela Geller), Analekta + 50 other EU / U.S. bloggers (and Facebook groups) is the epicenteret for policy analysis and has been for some years.
I recommend to you all also strongly recommended to extend Facebook their networks, using the daily quota of 50 invitations to connect with Brits, French, Swedes, etc. Join groups that SIOE – Stop the Islamisation of Europe, Against Multiculturalism, join Progress Party. Watch the web pages "gates of vienna", "brussels journal", "Jihad Watch", "religion of peace" etc. Read Fjord Man's work "Defeating Eurabia". This is as the perfect Christmas gift for family and friends.
All remember the July riots in Marseilles and other French cities where the media were instructed not to report the news, see (Pamela Geller "Atlas shrugs") http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/atlas_shrugs/2009/07/media-blackout-violence-infrance.html
The whole conflict between GDP and EDL (English Defense League) started with a change of leadership in the EDL for a few months ago. They threw out the racist and denounced the BNP. They chose instead SIOE's ideological basis that is more or less mainstream view on the right side in Western Europe now (Vienna School of Thought).
Nick was very offended and began to demonize the EDL. Although they are now attacking each other as they compete not at all as these are two quite different fronts. 90% of all votes in the EDL continued GDP (Since this is the only alternative to multikulti in the UK) and 90% of GDP supports EDL regardless of what Nick had to think.
Second, Labour governs intelligence service. They had never in his life supported the EDL as these create a lot of positive attention for the cultural conservative movement in the UK. I have on some occasions discussed with SIOE and EDL and recommended them to use conscious strategies.
EDL is an example and a Norwegian version is the only way to prevent Flash / SOS to harass Norwegian cultural conservatives from other fronts. Creating a Norwegian EDL should be No.3 on the agenda after we have started up a cultural conservative newspaper with national distribution.
There are political forces in Oslo who want to mass-act subsidized / low cost "Islam-blocks" in Oslo West for "better integration". As far as I know, only the Progress Party / Conservatives who oppose the moment so it can actually become a reality over the next decade. Can you name ONE country where multiculturalism is successful where Islam is involved?
I have great respect for how the Marxist-humanist networks in Norway are able to use their power optimally through "force Multiplication" and cooperation. They are insanely hard-working, skilled in the consolidation and hard-working and most on the right side has a lot to learn from them.
I myself am a Protestant and baptized / confirmed to me by my own free will when I was 15. But today's Protestant church is a joke. Priests in jeans who march for Palestine and churches that look like the minimalist shopping centers. I am a supporter of an indirect collective conversion of the Protestant church back to the Catholic. In the meantime, I vote for the most conservative candidates in church elections.
It is well known that commercial publications (ranging from CNN, BBC, Dagbladet, Fox) is clear but often "unofficial ideological platforms" as it is expected that employees will follow. Such ideological principles is necessary to have an unofficial "ideological mutiny clause" that prevents unwanted future developments.
Lou Dobbs of CNN was hit by the unofficial section and he ultimately chose to go. It is not unlikely that he was forced out because he changed his ideological standpoint in the course of his career. He became more and more critical of Muslim mass immigration to the U.S. which was not consistent with CNN's politically correct line.

Emergency repairs for levee under way
Published: Monday, April 27, 2009 at 11:56 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, April 27, 2009 at 11:56 a.m.
HOUMA Seven months after hurricanes Gustav and Ike battered the lower Dularge levee and flooded nearby communities, Terrebonne levee officials have finally received federal emergency money to do the most basic repairs to the system.
Its been long overdue, said Councilman Clayton Voisin, who represents Dularge on the Terrebonne Parish Council. Its been red tape after red tape, and now we can finally bring the levee back to its original height.
The $700,000 in emergency money will help get the levee back into working condition, removing hurricane debris and fixing portions of the levee that scoured during the hurricane. Scouring occurs when water washes over the levee and eats away at the inside of the system.
It will not raise the levee to offer any extra protection to Dularge, which flooded during Hurricane Ike.
These are basic repairs that need to be done before hurricane season, which is less than two months away, to ensure the levee wont fail, said Windell Curole, interim director of the Terrebonne Levee District.
The scouring needs to be filled in or else it will compromise the levee, said Angela Rains, district manager of the Terrebonne Levee District, adding that the district will get a contractor to fill in the holes and reshape the levee.
Though the delays occurred on what was supposedly emergency post-hurricane repair work, Curole said he was happy this would give the district the opportunity to repair the levee before Aug. 15, when hurricane season usually kicks into high gear.
The Natural Resources Conservation Service had to approve repairs for the project because under emergency reimbursement rules, the agency will pay for 75 percent of the cost of repairs, Curole said. In the past, the agency has been quick to respond to emergency repair requests, but this year things changed, he said.
The levee has sat mostly untouched since the storms, Rains said.
We couldnt do anything to it because then they wouldnt fund our project, she said.
Inspectors from NRCS were out on the levee in October, but it wasnt until March that emergency money was finally approved by the agency, Rains said. The Terrebonne Levee Board then had to approve the project.
Other hurricane Gustav and Ike hurricane projects that were fielded through the agency were handled quicker, said Greg Bush, Terrebonne Public Works director.
An emergency project to repair Lashbrook pump station, which failed during the storm, was authorized just a few days after the request was made, he said. Additional projects to clean out and restore drainage ditches and canals was approved after five months.
The levee runs along the west side of the community and ranges between 6 feet at its lowest points and 8 and 1/2 feet at the highest. It will be evened out to a 7-foot elevation, officials said.
Bayou Dularge Road, at an elevation of about 4 feet, provides some protection on the east side of Dularge.
Eventually I would like to see the levee raised 2 to 3 feet, Voisin said. But right now, this is sufficient, and Im just glad we finally took (the Natural Resources Conservation Service) to task. Supposedly the money is in place and I just hope its not to late to get it ready for hurricane season.

Want Better Sex?
From their work with couples being treated for infertility, Zavos and his fellow researchers have found that men's smoking had a significant and negative effect on the ability to conceive. But they also turned up a surprise: Smoking significantly diminished a man's sexual desire and satisfaction -- even for young men in their 20s and 30s.
The smokers reported having sex less than six times a month, whereas the nonsmoking men were having sex nearly twice as often. This difference is especially significant considering that these couples were actively trying to conceive. "In current research, we are trying to identify how and why tobacco use negatively impacts men's sexual performance. In my clinical experience, it does decrease performance. Sexual performance is more than just erectile function; it involves many of the systems of the body," says Zavos. "But when a man's ability to have sex decreases, his appetite for sex will generally follow."
Zavos found that when diminished desire is combined with impaired performance, overall satisfaction is likely to suffer. When asked to rate their satisfaction with the sex they were having on a scale of 1 to 10, nonsmoking couples averaged 8.7, while couples with male smokers fared far worse with an average of only 5.2. "There's no doubt in my mind," says Zavos, "that nearly any man's sexual satisfaction and frequency [of having sex] would increase if he stopped smoking."
Other experts agree that smoking can impair sexual performance. "Smoking causes damage to smooth muscle inside the penis that interferes with erectile functioning," says Richard Milsten, MD, co-author of The Sexual Male and a urologist for more than 30 years in Woodbury, N.J. "So if men can't perform as well, it would make sense that their libidos would suffer." However, Milsten cautions against simple explanations for sexual behavior. "There are so many factors in sexuality. Smoking is just one. Still, I don't think it's outlandish to say that refraining from smoking will benefit your sex life."

Will Hawkeyes bounce back and make bowl?
Everyone associated with the Iowa football program would love to forget the 2012 season. It was a struggle all around, in pretty much every facet, as the Hawkeyes finished 4-8 and missed out on a bowl game for the first time since 2007. Can this year's new-look team get back to the postseason? BTN.com's Tom Dienhart and Brent Yarina offer their thoughts in this post.

For those interested in following the Hong Kong International School Holiday Basketball Tournament, you can view live Webstreaming and real-time score updates at this site.
American School In Japan basketball fans may get similar gouge here from the 8th Great Wall Basketball Shootout, hosted by International School Bejing. ASIJ and host ISB were 2-0 in both the boys and girls pools after their opening games on Thursday and Friday.
From former Faith Academy coach Dan Beaver, visiting the tournament en route back home to Boracay from a visit to Australia:
Zachary Shaw of HKIS got himself an early Christmas present thanks to a half-court "Money Ball" shot winner at halftime of the HKIS girls game Friday morning. Three people's shots before him rimmed out before Shaw hit nothing but net for $500 Hong Kong (about $64.50 U.S.). HKIS athletics director Sharon Leung announced the pot returns to $100 Hong Kong (about $12.90 U.S.) for HKIS' next game.
Some nice additions to the HKIS' high school and middle school gyms: Each now features brand new scoreboards at each end of the courts with shot clocks over the backboards. Also, additional lighting, most likely for the Webcasts, is in place. Truthfully, the lighting was already pretty good by daylight, but this should make Webcasting night games much easier.
Featured games that will likely preview Saturday's championship contests include Heep Yunn vs. Singapore American in the girls field at 6 p.m. (7 p.m. Japan and Korea), followed by HKIS' boys against Singapore American at 7:30 (8:30 p.m. Japan and Korea).

Air Force Eyeing Google Glass for Battlefield Informatics
The Air Force is evaluating the combat effectiveness of Google Glass, the wearable computer that Google Inc. put on sale to the general public Tuesday. A research group at Ohio's Wright-Patterson Air Force Base says it has created software prototypes that could help Glass-wearing ground personnel detect snipers or treat the wounded.
The Air Force has already been using head mounted displays for certain functions, most notably with its pilots and for its pararsecue jumpers, who are tasked with recovery and medical treatment. But members of Air Force's Battlefield Air Targeting, Man-Aided Knowledge program say Google Glass's design makes it more battlefield-friendly for ground personnel than clunkier, more expensive head-mounted models offered by defense contractors.
"We're trying to improve the war fighter's mission efficiency as well as effectiveness through intuitive displays," said Gregory Burnett, the chief engineer of the group, also known as the BATMA(N) program. Glass features data-displaying screen users control via a touchpad, head gestures and voice.
The applications Air Force researchers are developing includes one that connects to a threat detection software system which feeds data on the range and bearing of snipers directly to a Glass screen. Another use case is a text messaging tool that allows soldiers to communicate without speaking, which he said is useful for in situations that require stealth. A navigation app helps guide Glass wearers across unfamiliar terrain.
Air Force researchers have also built an Android smartphone medical application that receives heart rhythm, respiration and blood oxygen level information from wireless vital monitors war fighters wear on their chests. That data is then fed to a Glass-wearing medic who can review a wounded individual's vital signs while keeping hands free to attend to the wounded. "We distill the data [on the smartphone] and push that out to Glass, which is connected to the mobile device," said Mr. Burnett.
Researchers at BATMA(N) sees Glass as more functional, efficient and cheaper option to the than most head-mounted displays built by defense contractors. Most displays directly cover the eye. Glass sits just above the eye to display "contextual awareness information in the battle space" without obstructing war fighter's views, said Mr. Burnett. Head-mounted displays are also heavier and clunkier because they are ruggedized to handle rough battlefield environments. Defense-grade displays draw their processing power from a separate computer, such as a mobile computer wired to the helmet, or a small laptop soldiers wear on their chest, said Mr. Burnett. They also typically require the wearer to use a mouse to control the device, which is hardly optimal in combat situations. In contrast, Glass' computing power is integrated within the frame.
Traditional head-mounted displays are also more expensive. Glass' $1,500 price tag is more economical than defense industry displays that can cost anywhere from $5,000 to $10,000 or more. Although Mr. Burnett said performance was the prevailing factor of using Glass, he acknowledged the Air Force doesn't want to "disregard all of the capabilities and cost-savings we may leverage from the commercial sector."
One liability Glass has on the battlefield is that it could break on forceful impacts. Mr. Burnett said that a Glass wearer's performance was greatly enhanced by the device's form factor, he'd suggest that the commercial markets develop a more durable solution, "whether that be Google or some other company."
JP Gownder, a Forrester Research analyst who tracks wearable computing, says Glass affords the military some hands-free capabilities for information access, just as it has in health care, manufacturing and legal industries. But he said it may not be able to provide the same situational awareness of emerging wearable computers that feature augmented reality, which can superimpose information about terrain, machines or objects in the field over what one sees in front of one's face. "I think there will be limits on what it can do," said Mr. Gownder.

Gainesville, FL (AP) - Kenny Boynton scored 21 points, Alex
Tyus added 19 and No. 16 Florida beat Florida Atlantic 79-66 on
Tuesday night.
Erving Walker chipped in 14 points, six rebounds and four
assists for the Gators (4-1), who showed some fatigue while playing
for the fourth time in eight days.
Florida struggled early against the Owls (3-3), allowing them to
shoot nearly 50 percent from the floor in the first half and giving
up way too many easy baskets. The Gators, meanwhile, missed free
throws and failed to make the most of their height advantage and
Florida settled down in the second half and really turned things
around when Brett Royster, the Sun Belt Conference's defensive
player of the year in 2009, picked up his fourth foul with 16:43
Greg Gantt, who grew up in Gainesville, led FAU with 17 points.
