Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire Police are appealing for information following the illegal poisoning of two rare red kites less than a mile apart in the Chilterns. The RSPB is offering a reward of £1,000 for information leading to a conviction.
In January 2012, Hertfordshire Police assisted by officers from the RSPB recovered a dead red kite just south of the village of Hexton. The bird had been found by a member of the public out with her young daughter close to a public footpath.
In March, following a second report from the public, officers from the RSPB recovered a second dead red kite hanging in a bush less than a mile away on the Pegsdon Hills Nature Reserve run by the Bedfordshire Wildlife Trust.
Subsequent toxicological tests confirmed both birds had been poisoned with a highly-toxic banned pesticide. It is suspected both birds had been feeding on carrion placed in the countryside and illegally laced with the chemical.
'Every year we get tragic incidents like this. Illegally placing poison in the countryside puts wildlife, domestic animals and potentially people at risk'
On May 2, 2012, Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire Police, in conjunction with officers from Natural England, the National Wildlife Crime Unit (NWCU) and RSPB, undertook a search in the area including a number of outbuildings. A number of samples were taken and will be submitted for further toxicological tests.
Sergeant Jamie Bartlett, the Rural Wildlife and Environmental Crimes Officer for Hertfordshire Police, said: 'We are appealing to anybody who may have more information about the deaths of these birds.
'The use of poison in these circumstances is highly irresponsible and indiscriminate. The pesticide used is highly toxic and the potential for injury to members of the public or their pets could have been high.
'We take matters such as this very seriously and urge people to come forward with any information that could assist us to progress this matter. Working with various partner agencies in this case is proving to be very useful.'
Guy Shorrock, Investigations Officer with the RSPB, added: 'The reintroduction of red kites has been a fantastic success story and the expansion of the population into Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire has allowed more people to see these amazing birds.
'Unfortunately, every year we get tragic incidents like this. Illegally placing poison in the countryside puts wildlife, domestic animals and potentially members of the public at risk. We would urge anyone with information about this or other wildlife crime to contact the police.'
Anyone with any information is asked to contact Sergeant Jamie Bartlett on the non-emergency number 101. Alternatively call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111. You do not have to give your name and you could be entitled to a cash reward.
Nature is in trouble – so millions of people are stepping up to help. Our wildlife has been disappearing at an alarming rate. But small steps make a big difference. If we all act together and get stuck in, we can save our wildlife.

DES MOINES, Iowa – The last two seasons saw the Davenport Volleyball program post 21 and 22 wins to set a new school record for a single season but after a sweep of Olivet Nazarene and Jamestown on Saturday, the new record now stands at 23. DU used a 5-set win over the Tigers in the opener and the Panthers followed with a 3-set win over the Jimmies to improve to 23-5 on the season. The perfect 4-0 weekend also grabbed the Grand View Tournament title as they were the only school to finish without a loss.
The Davenport volleyball program continues to reach new heights and Saturday they reached the highest as a team in the three years under head coach Megan Lenhart. The Panthers defeated Olivet Nazarene (21-25, 25-18, 25-14, 23-25, 17-15) and Jamestown (25-20, 25-19, 25-21) to pick up their school record 23rd win.
The opener was a back and forth affair against one of the NAIA's best in Olivet Nazarene and after DU fell behind 1-0, the Panthers dominated the next two sets to take control. The Tigers, under head coach Brenda Williams who is fifth on the NAIA's current wins list, battle back to force a fifth set and actually had two match points at 14-13 and 15-14, but the late rally by the Panthers was too much. Amber Getty posted a career high 59 assists while freshman Marcey DeHaan led the attack with 15 kills. Four other players finished in double-digit kills while Lexie Spetoskey and Sidney Rodriguez each posted 18 digs.
The second match pitted the Panthers against Jamestown College (S.D.) for the first time in school history and the Jimmies came into the week receiving votes in the latest NAIA Top-25 poll. DU played a solid match from start to finish and got great offensive production from DeHaan and Nicole Chase as well as Hannah Stone to sweep 25-20, 25-19, 25-21. Chase, Stone and DeHaan combined to post 27 kills for DU as they won for just the second time this season over a team receiving votes or ranked in the Top-25.
Davenport will play their final match at home during the regular season on Wednesday when they host rival Aquinas College at 7:00pm. It will be a special night as the Panthers honor their lone senior Kelse Moon and also one in which there will be a fundraiser for Make a Wish.
Post-Match Notes
Davenport won the tournament which included NAIA No. 13 Grand View University as they were the only team to go undefeated over the two days in Iowa…DU has now won 16 of their last 18 matches dating back to the beginning of September…The 59 assists by Amber Getty was the third most in a single match in school history

Being in good health is not a simple task or wish; many aspects of the body need careful attention to avoid illnesses and health problems. Such is a sensitive area of the woman's body – the vagina.
One of the health conditions that can cause embarrassment and stress for a woman is to contract vagina warts. This can create confusion and stress, as well as embarrassment, as the woman feels vulnerable and inferior with such a condition imposed on her.
She may think quite negatively of her sex life after this diagnosis, assuming that she is unable to enjoy sexual activities from henceforth. Others may doubt if she can have a safe intercourse, or may experience problems in looking for the right treatment for the condition.
However, vaginal warts are curable, with no lasting effects. Availability of various treatments for this condition helps in removing the warts safely and prevents them from returning. Hence, it is not a dreaded disease, as some may make it to be.
How To Get Rid Of Vagina Warts
STD Condition
It is an embarrassing condition to learn about the diagnosis of a sexually transmitted disease (STD), much less to admit that you or your sexual partner is an STD sufferer. Vaginal warts give that same poor reflection. However, an herbal solution is available to treat these warts and it is growing in popularity. Therefore, vaginal warts are not part of STD.
Herbal Treatment
This herbal solution is also effective in preventing any transfer of the condition to the partner. It takes time to come to a total healing, as there are several downsides to this natural solution, since warts may rebound and leave scars. It may be difficult to have an active sex life until complete healing takes place. The cost of treatment is quite high, as many insurance companies do not cover such a malady.
Also Read
Herbal treatments are very soothing on the warts and will eventually remove all of them before focusing on prevention. Most vaginal warts patients prefer herbal treatments as the treatments use products made from natural herbs, which are safe with no adverse side effects. It is not expensive to purchase these herbal treatments, although you may need to be diligent in applying them until your condition improves and the vaginal warts disappear completely.
General Health
Prevention of vaginal warts is possible if you adopt a healthy diet and focus on building up your immune system. A balanced and healthy diet plays an important impact on the prevention of vaginal warts. If your body system is in good balance, you will have little worries about vaginal warts.
Contracting vaginal warts may be a painful situation and can have an impact on the emotions. Nevertheless, with proper and early treatment, you can stop the suffering. You will need to be patient and bear the discomfort when you have vaginal warts. Take care not to rub against your warts to avoid any discomfort. Taking care of your body properly will ensure that it does not spread to other body parts.

I tried last night to comment on your wonderful journal entry with the girl and hearts. But the connection timed out!

Good ideas can come from otherwise crappy languages. I think Java-style exception handling was a really good idea that Perl can almost (but not quite) do without using modules. With modules like Exception, you can get 90% of what Java has. You can get closer with Error, but it has other problems.

World Bank, DANIDA Establish First Climate Innovation Center
31 January 2011: The World Bank will establish the world's first Climate Innovation Center (CIC) in Nairobi, Kenya, an initiative spearheaded by the Royal Danish Embassy (DANIDA) and the Bank's Information for Development Program (infoDev).
The CIC will provide targeted financing and capacity building to entrepreneurs and small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to scale up and deploy innovative clean technology solutions that meet local needs and create local jobs. In the first five years, the CIC is expected to create over 70 sustainable climate technology businesses, generating some 4,600 direct and indirect jobs. Over the next decade, it is estimated that over 24,000 jobs will be created in Kenya.
InfoDev, a technology and innovation led development finance programme of the World Bank and International Finance Corporation, is establishing a global network of CICs to enable the private sector in developing countries to proactively and profitably take part in green growth. [World Bank Press Release]

• Seventy-three patients with anaphylaxis of unknown cause were studied. Repeated histories and physical examinations were performed by the Northwestern University (Chicago) allergy service in an attempt to find a cause for the anaphylaxis. Documentation of abnormal physical findings during an episode of anaphylaxis was necessary in each patient. Prior to our initial consultation, these 73 patients had required 115 emergency room visits and 37 hospitalizations. No deaths have occurred in 224 patient years of follow-up from initial presentation. Thirty-eight (52%) patients have infrequent reactions (defined as one episode only or mild episodes less than six times per year) requiring acute treatment alone. Thirty-five (48%) patients have severe or frequent life-threatening reactions (defined as episodes that include syncope, documented hypotension, and airway compromise as major manifestations) requiring maintenance antihistamines and prednisone. Laboratory studies were not helpful in finding a cause of anaphylaxis in any of the 73 patients. Associated atopic conditions were present in 45 patients. Twenty-three patients had chronic idiopathic angioedema, urticaria, or both prior to developing idiopathic anaphylaxis. Sixteen patients only treated acutely for each episode of anaphylaxis and seven patients previously receiving maintenance medication are now asymptomatic without medication for longer than one year.

I think Carwin takes it.
Nelson showed a lot of toughness last time out, which makes it possible that he can take advantage of Carwin's stamina, but SC is bigger, stronger and has better wrestling and stand-up. I think he'll control the pace of the fight and where it takes place and will finish Nelson in the 2nd round.
Also, Carwin came close to beating the champ, whereas Nelson didn't really have any good moments against JDS. So I'd say that style and recent form favour Carwin.
Some guys are just cursed with terrible stamina, and if that's the case then he's in trouble, but I think Carwin will improve conditioning, either by changing his training, his mentality or by using less steroids (or maybe more steroids, I dunno).

Oh, my throbbin' noggin.
Sunday night, my headache was induced by the mega-hyped "Monsters vs. Aliens" 3-D trailer, exhibited during halftime of the Super Bowl. My eyes crossed as I squinted through the red-and-blue lenses of the cheap-o cardboard 3-D glasses -- and I removed them milliseconds before my strained cerebellum burst.
I made it through the movie ad, and part of the subsequent soft-drink commercial before the glasses were tossed aside. The silver lining is, it distracted me from the discomfort of stomach bloat, induced by my annual consumption of too many chicken wings, chased by a disturbingly large portion of gorilla bread.
Frankly, the "MvsA" clip was far less entertaining than the theatrical version, where Bob the blob goes on a date with a Jell-O mold.
While my esteemed Press colleague Michael Zuidema typed up an inclusive and insightful retrospective of this year's Super Bowl commercials, I've deemed the plethora of new movie trailers shown during the game worth another look -- and a run through the Project Mayhem critical ringer. (Note: I already examined the clip for Pixar's "Up" here.)
"G.I. Joe"
This might be the dumbest clip to air during the whole extravaganza. Why? First clue: "From the director of 'The Mummy'," it boasts. Second clue: Wrecking a monument -- in this case, the Eiffel Tower -- is a tired cliche. Third clue: Marlon Wayans. Fourth clue: Cheeseball CGI dudes doing flippity-doo stunts. Really, Dennis Quaid will do any piece of junk script that crosses his desk. All I can say is, the Storm Shadow-vs.-Snake Eyes ninja action better be sweet.
"Land of the Lost"
This might be the evening's best trailer for one reason: Sleestaks!
"Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen"
Ugh. Oodles of CGI junk smashing and crashing and blowing up in a noisy collage of trademark Michael Bay nonsense. In other words, the sequel appears to be more of the same.
"Year One"
Man gets hit in head with rocks. Y'know, I like Michael Cera and Jack Black, but this clip is pretty dopey. Harold Ramis directs, but he hasn't helmed anything worthwhile since 1993 classic "Groundhog Day."
"Angels and Demons"
We've already seen the teaser trailer for the "Da Vinci Code" sequel, but this is the first time we see Tom Hanks -- with a haircut! -- in action. And you know what? I'm really sick of dramatic chanting-choir scores. And Ron Howard movies.
"Star Trek"
Not much new here compared to the clip we've seen in theaters, although we get a few extra seconds' worth of Captain Kirk's pre-space-exploration personality. And the movie still looks pretty cool (and that's coming from a "Star Wars" dude).
"Fast and Furious"
This is a truncated version of the most recent theatrical trailer, but it keeps the driving-under-a-flaming-and-flipping-semi-trailer bit intact. Definitely stoopid, but it could be mindless fun.
"Race to Witch Mountain"
I'm loathe to admit I chuckled at the "pimped-out fridge" line. Dang. I blame it on the gorilla-bread sugar buzz.

There is no doubt that heart failure is a major and costly health care issue. In this context, the study by Riegel et al1 is interesting. However, several weaknesses in the study and interpretation of the results mean that the findings have uncertain practical relevance in the management of heart failure.
First, there is a lack of detail on the precise activities or interventions of the nurses. Examples are mentioned in the "Patients and Methods" section, but it is all very hazy. Second, and related to the previous point, what intermediary factors were responsible for the improved outcomes? For instance, did the program result in improved prescribing of heart failure drugs, improved patient compliance with medication, or perhaps improved lifestyle management (diet and exercise)?

Syrian rebels say senior al-Qaida fighter killed
BEIRUT -- Two suicide bombers killed a senior al-Qaida operative Sunday, blowing themselves up inside the leader's compound in the Syrian city of Aleppo, rebels and activists said.
The killing of Abu Khaled al-Suri, who rebels said was serving as al-Qaida chief Ayman al-Zawahri's representative in Syria, falls against the backdrop of bloody rebel infighting between an al-Qaida breakaway, known as the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, and an array of ultraconservative and more moderate opposition fighters.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack, but rebels quickly accused the Islamic State. Al-Suri had been critical of the group, reportedly blaming it for the conflict among rebels that has killed thousands of people across northern Syria since early January.
If an Islamic State role in al-Suri's death is confirmed, it could further complicate efforts to resolve the infighting, which has undermined rebel efforts to oust President Bashar Assad. Since the rebel-on-rebel clashes began, Assad's forces have chipped away at opposition-held areas, including around Aleppo.
A native Syrian with long-standing al-Qaida ties, al-Suri was a co-founder of Ahrar al-Sham, a prominent, hard-line group in Syria that is part of the powerful Islamic Front alliance.
Akram al-Halabi, an Islamic Front spokesman, called al-Suri "a big figure in global jihad," and said he was appointed by al-Zawahri in 2013 to mediate a dispute between the two al-Qaida affiliates in Syria: the Islamic State and the Nusra Front.

Handri-Neeva an answer to water crisis in Rayalaseema: CM
By Express News Service - KURNOOL
Published: 19th November 2012 11:14 AM
Last Updated: 19th November 2012 11:14 AM
The Handri-Neeva Sujala Sravanthi (HNSS) is an answer to the water crisis in the parched Rayalaseema region, chief minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy said after inaugurating the first phase of the much awaited `2,783 crore lift irrigation scheme at Malyala village in Nandikotkur mandal of Kurnool district on Sunday.
"After Komaram Bheem, Kinnerasani, Nettampadu, this is the fourth mega irrigation project that was inaugurated during my chief ministerial tenure unde r the J a l a y a gnam scheme," said the chief minister, adding that the scheme will ensure irrigation for 6 lakh hectares.
After the completion of first and second phase of the works, the project will cater to the drinking water need of around 35 lakh people in the four districts (Kadapa, Chittoor , Anantapur and Kurnool) in Rayalaseema region, Kiran Reddy said.
The chief minister, who earlier inaugurated a small lift irrigation scheme at Nagaloti village in the same mandal, named it after the former Congress MP Maddur Subba Reddy. He also promised that sluice gates would be built at Malyala village to release irrigation water to the nearby agricultural lands.
A bypass road will be sanctioned to Nandikotkur town soon, he said. Union railway minister for states Kotla Suryaprakash Reddy, PCC chief Botcha Satyanarayana, revenue minister Raghuveera Reddy, major irrigation minister Sudarshan Reddy, minor irrigation minister T.G.Venkatesh, law minister Erasu Prathap Reddy, district in-charge minister Kondru Murali, MPs SPY Reddy, Anantha Venkatarami Reddy, MLAs Labbi Venkataswami, Katasani Rambhupal Reddy, Katasani Rami Reddy, Silpa Mohan Reddy, Murali Krishna, Niraja Reddy, MLC Sudhaar Babu, council chairman Chakrapani Yadav and others were also present.

The Squid and the Whale ($26.96) Writer-director Noah Baumbach draws on his own childhood for this quirky gem of a tale about a family coping with divorce in '80s Brooklyn. Jeff Daniels and Laura Linney are their usual brilliant selves, but the real revelation here is Owen Kline (son of Kevin Kline and Phoebe Cates) as their conflicted 12-year-old. Extras: Skip the mind-numbing, esoteric New York Film Festival Q&A with Baumbach, who saves all the fascinating stories for his commentary. (R) Movie:
Dreamer: Inspired by a True Story ($19.95) This Seabiscuit-lite tale of a girl (Dakota Fanning) who helps resuscitate the career of an injured filly has a big heart, albeit one that beats sporadically until the second half. Extras: Largely for young horse lovers, including a look at the real-life filly that inspired the film and a primer on horse grooming (don't forget the mane conditioner!). (PG)

Everyone has part to 'Clean Up Baltimore'
While walking or driving, you can see everything from food containers to furniture strewn along streets and roads, and it's not a pretty site.
In an effort to improve the view, Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake launched "Clean Up Baltimore," a campaign to remind city residents and visitors to use pedestrian litter receptacles in public venues.
"Clean Up Baltimore" signs along major corridors point to can locations and serve as a reminder to properly discard litter. The campaign also includes reminders to residents to properly contain their trash and put it out on appropriate collection days.
There's a cash incentive for neighborhoods participating in the 2013 Clean Community Competition. Neighborhoods are joining forces to increase recycling tonnage, clear storm drains and earn extra credit for adopting vacant lots.
There's nothing Baltimoreans like more than being a winner, so join the city and WBAL-TV in doing your part to "Clean Up Baltimore." This is something we all can do and we all can win.

NSCLC is "Major Battlefield" as Merck,...
SAIC-Frederick will pay GenVec $2.6 million over the next year for the development of influenza and HIV vaccines. The four-year contract has a total value of over $22 million if all options are exercised.
Work under this contract will include generation of HIV vaccine candidates and of a universal flu vaccine candidate. GenVec will also faciliate process and assay development for the manufacture of vaccine candidates for clinical testing. The vaccines will comprise genetic material supplied by the Vaccine Research Center (VRC), which is part of the NIAID, and adenoviral vectors supplied from GenVec.
Additionally, the new contract will support HIV vaccine candidates currently in clinical testing under a collaboration between GenVec and VRC. In September NIAID executed its third option period (year four) under a previously announced contract that could span five years and is valued at up to $52 million. GenVec will receive up to $2.3 million for the fourth year.
VRC is managing the clinical development of this program, and the vaccine candidate (VRC-HIVADV014-00VP) is being evaluated alone and in combination with a plasmid DNA vaccine prime. In October 2005, VRC initiated a Phase II trial, and six Phase I studies have completed enrollment, with over 50 participants receiving the adenovector vaccine candidate.
The vaccine candidate is designed to protect against the three most common types of HIV-1 virus found around the world, clades A, B, and C. The vaccine candidate utilizes GenVec's proprietary adenovector delivery technology and 293-ORF6 production cell line and is designed to generate a broad spectrum of immune responses including neutralizing antibodies and cytolytic T-cell immunity.

The Impact of the 'Ruggie Framework' and the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights on Transnational Human Rights Litigation
Astrid Sanders
London School of Economics - Law Department
June 23, 2014
LSE Legal Studies Working Paper No. 18/2014
This paper explores the impact of the Ruggie 'Protect, Respect and Remedy' framework and UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights on transnational human rights litigation. It considers the impact to date, and the possible impact the Ruggie Framework and UN Guiding Principles could have on a widely predicted increase in the number of state law negligence claims against transnational corporations in the US after the decision of the Supreme Court in Kiobel v. Royal Dutch Petroleum limiting the jurisdictional reach of the US Alien Tort Statute 1789.

I recently attended a DMIX (Direct Marketing Idea Exchange) luncheon and the speaker was the President of a large catalog company. She was kind enough to give us each a gift car d to buy something in her catalog.
There was a book in there I wanted, so I ordered it. First they sent me a letter, saying my book was delayed. Then they sent another letter (3 weeks later), and said it was on back order, and they'd let me know when it came in.
Months later, I wrote to her about this, and the book came flying to me FEDEX from Amazon (not her company).
She made it right, but only because I was in her industry and write a lot of articles, etc.
Afterward, they should have written and told me they were sorry about the delay in my shipment.
Meanwhile, we're working on a hospitality client's business at my office, and deployed a huge email campaign with an error in the offer.
I called the client, and said we have to write to all of them immediately and say we're sorry and correct our mistake. I sent an OOOPs! email, and we received so many orders right away. In fact, a much higher response than we'd had in many months.
We apologized quickly. We gave them a good offer. We also appeared like real human beings who make mistakes.
So, they forgave us, and bought a lot from us.

A donor has agreed to pick up the tab for any ninth-, 10th- or 11th-grader who wants to take a "test drive" next semester. The idea is to give interested families the chance to try out Lumen Christi without having to consider tuition, which runs nearly $6,000 a year.
Parents no doubt have all sorts of reasons for choosing a school for their child, whether it's the cost, the proximity, reputation or even a certain program or teacher. We wonder: What's the biggest factor you consider when choosing a school for your child?
Readers, too, have been weighing in with their opinions about Lumen Christi's tuition-free offer. Does it make you any more willing to send your high school student to the school for a semester?

I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with Nine West. Let me explain:
The good: Nine West shoes are usually cute, reasonably priced, and good quality. Plus you can find them practically everywhere.
The bad: The vast majority of their shoes are leather. Furthermore, their website does a terrible job with their product details, so it's nearly impossible to tell online what the shoes are made of.
The ugly: Their customer service reps on their 800 line have provided false information to me on several occasions. I have called to find out what materials certain shoes are made out of, since their website does not provide proper information, and was told that the shoes I was asking about are 100% synthetic when in fact they were made of real leather!
The redemption: The Nine West *outlet* saves the brand from being a total vegan no-no. I have found that most of the shoes in their outlet stores are vegan. I bought two pairs of really nice pumps (pictured here), as well as my favorite pair of faux snakeskin flats. Plus these shoes are usually way cheaper than their regular line of shoes! I wish the outlet had its own website, like the JCrew Factory store.
Garison by Nine West (outlet) – $59.99
Paige by Nine West (outlet) – $59.99
Currently the outlet has a promo where if you buy one pair, you get a second pair half off, so I got these two pairs for $90. Not a bad deal.
These would fit perfectly into my Black and Nude Pump Roundup post!

The debate is raging on whether writers should write for content aggregators like Helium. Some writers say it's great to write an article and get it online sans query and editing process, and they boast that they can churn out several articles per hour; others point out that the pay is peanuts and the market is a less-than-impressive place to showcase your clips.
On the Word Count blog, Michelle Rafter invited guest posters to write about the pros and cons of content aggregators like Helium. Long-time freelancer Tim Beyers gives three big reasons writers should not work for content aggregators. Barbara Whitlock, Helium's new member outreach manager, replied (guess what?) in favor of Helium.
On his WriterBiz blog, Erik Sherman broke out a calculator and figured out what people are actually making for their effort, and whether it's worth it. (Short answer: No.)
Check out these blog posts and let me know your conclusions: Should writers spend energy writing for content aggregators? [lf]

You can paralyze it but it comes back after about 5 sec! It is creepy isn't it!
Lead it to another side of the room, wait for it to come, then rush over to where the Sol is.
Don't laugh too hard, but I can't finish this game! I'm at the Twilight Palace...
What frightens me is that big black evil hand that comes after you when you're trying to get the Sol outside. I was terrified when that nasty hand warped through the door when I thought I had a good lead on it!! I barely made it outside with the first Sol and Midna says "oh yeah there's another one I forgot haha sorry". I quit the game because I just know there's another creepy hand waiting for me... Is there any way to kill it??
Help me conquer my fear and finish this game!

Thats how I am with bosses. I seriously save the game right outside the door so I could bring up the courage to fight them. But then when I realized how easy they were I was like, "screw this, I'm goin in!" The hand is pretty scary though.
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
I like to save just as the battle begins, so that the door is unlocked next time I come back if I die.Originally Posted by kitkat_bar
That's what I did with the very last boss.

Haha, whenever I got to a boss door I was pumped! Then when I won I did a victory danceOriginally Posted by kitkat_bar
The reason I may be so scared is because it reminds me of a nasty Wallmaster encounter I had in the well in Majora's Mask. It was dark and at night and I was alone. In the game I had just finished killing a whole lot of enemies in the last room. The hall I was in was dark and silent and I figured the game was giving me a break. I didn't hear or see anything, so I kept going. All of a sudden a big black hand drops down and takes me to the start of the level, nearly giving me a heart attack. I shut the N64 down and couldn't play again for weeks!
I'm gonna bring my Wii to my anime club meeting tomorrow so hopefully the guys there will cheer me on and help me not to be so freaked out!
wikada: But doesn't the hand always go to the Sol? Or does it come after you first, I can't remember. How do you lead it somewhere else?
the hand goes after the sol all you hav to do is bolt it to the door i wasnt scared but i was just thinking what the f**k

In modern corporations created by statutes, it is generally contemplated by the charter, that the business of the corporation shall be transacted exclusively by the directors. And the acts of such a board, evidenced by a legal vote, are as completely binding upon the corporation, and as complete authority to their agents, as the most solemn acts done under the corporate seal.
To make a legal board of directors, they must meet at a time when, and a place where, every other director has the opportunity of attending to consult and be consulted with; and there must be a sufficient number present to constitute a quorum.
Directors of a corporation are trustees, and as such are required to use due diligence and attention to its concerns, and are bound to a faithful discharge of the duty which the situation imposes. They are liable to the stockholders whenever there has been gross negligence or fraud; but not for unintentional errors.

LANSING -- Though voters twice before have overwhelmingly rejected holding a constitutional convention, a plurality remains undecided on the issue, according to a new automated phone poll by Team TelCom Inc. for the Lansing public relations firm Rossman Group.
According to results taken from a sample of 400 likely Michigan voters on Oct. 4, 43 percent were unsure if Proposal 1, the Nov. 2 ballot issue that would authorize a convention next year, is a good idea or not. But of those who had made up their minds, voters were opposed to the idea by a 2-1 margin, 37.5 percent to 19.5 percent.
If approved by voters, 148 delegates would be elected in primary and general elections next winter and spring, and would convene in Lansing no later than Oct. 4. to begin rewriting the existing constitution ratified by voters in 1963.
Of those opposed to a convention, 56 percent said the current constitution works well enough. Twenty six percent said a convention would give too much power to special interests during the rewrite and 18 percent said it would cost too much. The Senate Fiscal Agency estimates that based on the costs of the 1962 convention, the 2011 price tag for a convention would approach $14 million. If delegates were selected in special elections and the ratification vote was a special election as well, the overall cost could exceed $45 million.
A plurality of supporters for a convention, 37 percent, said the Legislature is incapable of making the kind of change the state requires. Thirty six percent said Michigan's constitution should be stronger in reining in special interests and 27 percent said the current document is outdated.
The 2-1 margin opposed among respondents who had made a decision on the issue is a bigger margin than the one reported by a poll last month by the Lansing firm Marketing Resource Group for the Michigan Chamber of Commerce, which is leading the opposition effort against Proposal 1.
So far, most voters are undecided about a Nov. 2 ballot proposal to authorize a constitutional convention
• Yes 78 (19.5 percent)
• No 150 (37.5 percent)
• Undecided 172 (43 percent)
Poll of 400 likely voters conducted statewide Oct. 4 by Team Telcom Inc. for The Rossman Group.
In that survey, 46 percent opposed a convention with 32 percent in support. The poll, which personally interviewed respondents, had 21 percent undecided.
Among Democrats surveyed in the Rossman poll, 22 percent supported a convention with 33 percent opposed. Fewer Republicans, 17 percent, back a convention with 34 percent opposed. More men back a convention, 25 percent, than women, 14 percent.
Josh Hovey of the Rossman Group said "I expected the main reason for people to oppose it would be because it was too expensive, but that's the least popular reason to oppose it. I'm kind of thinking it's dead in the water."
We've spent the past several months exploring issues of vital interest to Michigan. For a full overview of topics, go to mlive.com/mi10.

Good For You Goodies
By Bob Greene for BestLifeDiet.com
Here's a not-so-surprising fact: Deprivation diets don't work. Ever notice that when you try to avoid a certain food—cookies, candy, wine—you just end up wanting it even more? And worse, you often wind up having more of it than you would have had you simply allowed yourself to have a small amount in the first place.
On the Best Life plan, we build treats right into your daily eating plan. After all, what would life be like if you couldn't enjoy the foods you love? The trick to making it work is to enjoy these foods in moderation.Next Slide 1 / 8

Welcome Couchie. I hope you stick with it this time and make a wonderful recovery from your health issues.
Hi All,
Well where do I start, well I am a 47 year old female, well will be in a
couple of months, so close enough.
I have been a member here for probably about a year, which I
have been following primal of and on.
I feel awesome when I eat the primal way and also IFing, so I think it is about time
I get serious, so have decided to journal my journey, to be able to
see where I go wrong and hopefully get some pointers from u long timers.
I suffer from Fibromyalgia and also Chronic Fatigue, and Candida.
So I am hoping being primal on a constant basis will help. I know
staying away from sugar does help, which I normally have no problem staying
of except for the once a week drink. It hasn't helped being away from home
for a couple of day's and eating the wrong foods, especially bread as I am
highly intolerant to Gluten. I am finding it hard to stop, so I really need to do
this, to make myself accountable and get back into the swing of things.
I have just gone though a very traumatic last 2 weeks, as well as a build up to it,
and my Fibro pain has increased dramatically, which I think has really spurred
me on to do something about it. It makes life miserable living like this, I am just so
thankful that I have a very loving and understanding partner that helps me though
it all.
I don't have a decent set of scales, so not exactly sure on my weight, I think around
the 76kg mark, I will post it when I can weigh myself. I really want to get fit and healthy
especially as I am getting closer to 50, I don't want to be racked in pain in my old age.
I want to be able to keep up with and enjoy my grandchildren.
So folks here comes one fit and healthy yummy grandma, lol.
I will start posting my meals and such tomorrow, I look forward to connecting with
you all, if you feel inclined to pop in and say hello.
Bye for now, but not forever.

Welcome Couchie. I hope you stick with it this time and make a wonderful recovery from your health issues.

My MDA Friday success story - Stubborn Senior's Testimonial
I got home to late last night to post my day's worth, so I will do it this morning.
Upon arising I have a small glass of warm water with cayenne pepper added.
1 cup of dandelion tea
1 cup of coffee.
Breakfast: scrambled eggs with smoked salmon.
1 green tea
1 green apple
Tea: shin beef casserole with asparagus suited in chilli butter and mashed white sweet potato.
No exercise at the moment, just don't feel up to it yet, but when my body feels ready
I have Craigs, TT bodyweight workouts on dvd.
Feel a little better today but not fantastic, I know it will take a while to get
the crap back out of my system
Started the morning with a small cup of cayenne pepper in warm water.
1 dandelion tea
1 white coffee
About 10.30 I started to get hungry so had a nice big bowl of bone broth
actually it is more like soup as I didn't remove the meat and veg, just the bones,
it was delicious, maybe a bit fatty as I also didn't remove the fat. It filled me up
for hours
About 3.00 started to get a bit peckesh again so had, Greek yogurt with blueberry's
and a square of Green & Black's Organic 85% chocolate grated over it, yum
Tea: fillet steak with asparagus, mashed sweet potato and avocado.
I have run out of coconut oil and miss it terribly, I love it, must order more in.
Ok let's see how I feel tomorrow, hopefully a little bit better
Hi Couchie. I also suffer from chronic fatigue and have just started eating primal in the hopes that it will help. That's the short version; I've already run off at the mouth in the Meet and Greet and in my own journal, so I won't bother everyone with that again.
Sounds like you're off to a great start. I'll be checking in on you so we can encourage each other. It would be so lovely to get our lives back, wouldn't it?
As for health benefits apparently so, it is supposed to help with the
heart,digestion, energy, arthritis pain and many more, a friend of
mine swears by it to keep colds and bugs away. So i decided
to trail it. I will let u know how I go. I also take superoxy for my pain
as well, so might not know which one is doing the work, hopefully both
Have a awesome day

Mme de Graffigny's short novel was a great success in its own time, both in French and in translation (including four versions in English). A work of remarkable intelligence and ambition, it has deservedly acquired some academic prominence in ours. The story is told through letters by the heroine – who is in fact an Inca Princess. Raised as a Temple Virgin, the youthful Zilia is affianced by custom but also by love to her close relative (fairly clearly her older brother), the Crown Prince Aza. But on the day of the marriage the Inca capital is invaded by the Spanish conquistadors. Imprisoned alone, Zilia is then placed on a Spanish ship which is captured by the French. Their gallant young commander Déterville, clearly smitten by this …

Thank you for visiting our past auction result archives. If you have an item identical (or similar) to this auction lot, please call, write or contact us to discuss. We will be able to help you.
Lot # 1162 (of 1560) < Previous Lot | Next Lot >
Circa 1993 Sandy Koufax Signed Limited-Edition Stephen Holland Giclee
Starting Bid - $800, Sold For - $3,525
Original giclee on canvas, titled The Stare, hand numbered "K19/32," flawlessly signed in gold paint pen by both Koufax (grading "10") and artist Stephen Holland. This is a rare "Koufax" proof of this classic work (as noted by the "K" designation before the limitation number) and the first such example we have ever offered. (Our consignor has told us that the Koufax proofs were all originally given to Koufax as part of his contractual agreement with Holland. We are also aware of other "K" designated proofs, again limited to 32 in number [Koufax's uniform number], of subsequent Holland Koufax artworks.) "The Stare," which was released in the early 1990s, not only represents one of Holland's earliest pieces but also his first of several paintings of Sandy Koufax. The numbered prints of The Stare were limited to just 170 and were quickly sold out. This piece, because it was never offered to the public and was instead given to Koufax, is all the more highly regarded by collectors. It is also the most recognizable artwork of Koufax ever created and considered by many to be one of Holland's greatest works. Stephen Holland is an internationally acclaimed sports artist. In 1993 he was named the Sports Artist of the Year by the American Sport Art Museum, and he was also one of twelve artists selected by the United States Olympic Committee to represent the 100th Anniversary of the Olympics. The piece measures 29 x 36 inches and is in Near Mint condition. Matted and framed to total dimensions of 36 x 43 inches. Please Note: Due to the size and/or weight of this lot, shipping costs (depending on where it is sent and its method of shipping) may be substantial. LOA from James Spence/JSA. Reserve $800. Estimate $1,500/$2,500. SOLD FOR $3,525

Motorcycles are great vehicles when you truly want to experience the great outdoors. If you live in a house with a garage, then storing and protecting your motorcycle is an easy task to do. By storing it in the garage, you protect it mainly from weather damage. But what if you live in an apartment complex with no garage or a house with no garage? Fortunately you still have a choice when it comes to storing your motorcycle. Consider using a motorcycle cover for protection against the weather.
The first thing you need to realize about motorcycle covers is that not all covers are made the same. Most riders believe that you can go to your local retail store, buy a cheap motorcycle cover, and expect it to do and act the same as a cover you would by at a motorcycle shop. The truth of the matter is- you get what you pay for. In other words, if you pay for a cheap cover, then you get cheap quality and a cover that won't last very long at all. However if you put the money into a good motorcycle cover, then chances are it will last you a long while.
Cheap motorcycle covers that you get from your local retail store are not much more than a plastic, royal blue, tarp cover. This type of cover will tie at the bottom of the bike with elastic hooks. A high-quality cover is custom fit to your motorcycle so it fits snuggly around the bike to protect it from weather and flying debris.
A lot of motorcycle covers are made to be resistant to water, as well as to repel water or to have UV protection to prevent the harmful rays from damaging the paint job on your motorcycle. However motorcycle covers are not 100% resistant to water for the simple fact that the cover needs to be able to breathe and to get rid of any moisture that may be under the cover. This prevents the bike from getting any rust and rot. The exterior of the motorcycle cover will keep water away while the interior of the cover lets the moisture escape to keep your bike dry.
The sun's UV rays can damage any part of your motorcycle from your paint job to your leather seats to your hoses- the sun can even damage your leather gloves if you ride hard and ride every day. Motorcycle Covers can protect against all of that. The cover can also keep your seat cool from the summer sun.
Not only does a cover protect again the sun's rays and rain, but it can also protect again the snow and ice, bird feces, tree sap, tree branches that may fall, and may even protect your tires against a stray dog that decides to use the bathroom on your tires.
So what type of cover do you need to get? There are several companies that make a heavy-duty cover for your motorcycle. These types of covers may come with vents, heat shields, and a surface that is waterproof. This cover is very heavy and durable and may come with locked hems that will allow you to protect your motorcycle.
If you are a travelling motorcyclist, you can find covers that are still durable but not as heavy duty. These types of covers come with a bag in which the cover can be stored. Other types of covers are half-covers, bikini tops, or shades that are made just for the summertime. Covers also protect your motorcycle from potential thieves as they can't see what is under the cover.
Pricing for covers are relatively reasonable, ranging anywhere from forty to eighty dollars. But by putting the money into a motorcycle cover, your bike will have years of protection and will look as good as new for as long as you have your cover.

text: ABSOLUTELY! Changing to a paleo diet will knock out your hypoglycemia 100%. I have had hypoglycemia most of my teen/adult years but since changing over it's completely gone. The only time I've had the shakes is when I was off the diet for a day or so during a conference where I had access to no other food other than carbs. It was horrible and I couldn't wait to get back home and start earing paleo again. If diabetes runs in your family, hypoglycemia can often be the first warning sign. I'd recommend eating paelo ASAP.

LinkedIn's groups provide you with the means to create and manage your own professional community. Whether you're trying to collaboratively work on a project, stay in touch with colleagues or simply branch out and network with like-minded professionals, creating and managing a group on LinkedIn can open doors to the service's users.
Creating a Group
Ultimately, the most important role of a group manager lies in the creation of the group itself. Groups may be created by clicking on the "Groups" link on your main page. From here you may create a group, upload a logo, create a name and discuss what the group is about.
Controlling Membership
LinkedIn gives you the option of deciding who can join -- or even view -- your group. By selecting the "Display this group in the Groups Directory" option you can display your group to anyone on LinkedIn. You may also choose to privately invite members to your group. Current LinkedIn members may be chosen from your contacts, while non-members can be added to the group via email. In the event that someone is proving to be disruptive to the group, you may also remove and block members.
Sharing Responsibility
Occasionally groups become larger than originally intended or you may no longer want the responsibility of moderating members and their posts. You can promote any group member to manager. If you are the original owner of the group, you may also remove the manager status of any member. The owner of the group may elect to give complete ownership of the group to another manager, but doing so will revoke the ability to promote or demote managers.
Terminating the Group
While it may not seem like a necessity from the beginning, all groups do eventually come to an end. The group manager has the ability to re-purpose the group or completely remove it from LinkedIn. Removing a group will also permanently revoke all existing memberships associated with the group.

It's too easy to call this new sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air in reverse, but why make things unnecessarily difficult?
Standup comic Kevin Hart plays a college student named, duh, Kevin Hart, who had it cushy out in Malibu until his rich widowed father went to jail for embezzlement. Now Kevin has to live with his Aunt Tina (Arnetia Walker), Uncle Clarence (Keith David) and three cousins in Philadelphia. They have strict house rules, they can't afford cable TV, and they buy generic shampoo. Obviously a nightmare for the Malibu Marvel.
On The Big House, stock characters and situations are right at home. Clarence talks big about corporal punishment, but manipulative Tina really rules the roost. The storylines call for the characters to tell ridiculous lies—to impress pretty girls, Kevin claims to live in a posh hotel and fakes a religious epiphany—and then squirm out of them. Though Hart is eager and energetic, the cast member to watch is Faizon Love (Elf) as rotund cousin Warren. He doesn't seem to be working too hard, but he's the steady laugh-getter this show sorely needs.

Ever wondered how your Chinatab is manufactured?
From start to finish?
A rare look inside a Chinese factory that does just that.
See how the motherboards are made, all the way down to the final product aqnd quality control testing the mics and cameras etc.
Truly amazing.
Start off with finding out how the boards are produced and tested..
...then off to the actual assembling of your tablet...
..and the final product...

4+ hours non-stop on streaming WiFi with a video playing (2 movies back-to-back?) is not enough to cover you before you can find a power source?
Some people want the world.
It is also capable of Skype video, which is hit or miss with some of the other Android tablets out there.
If it is not pre-loaded, you can get it from Google Play, which is loaded, for free.
Happy to help.
My very first Android tablet purchased a year and a half ago was for my son to take on trips, because I could load movies and games onto a tablet / MicroSD card and it was portable between my car and my wife's.
At the time, it was 5 generations older than this CPU, a resistive screen, and less-than-steller battery life.
We still have that tablet today, loaded with a custom ROM, and my 2yr old daughter uses it for an Animal Book app reader.
She'll love it.

Resistive Tablet (This is Capacitive)
2GB Internal HDD (This is 4GB)
Android 2.3 Gingerbread (This is 4.0.3 Ice Cream Sandwich - the latest version)
No Camera (This has a camera)
No Skype capability (This is Skype compatible)
No Google Play / Android Market (This has it installed already)
.....that was just what caught my eye at first glance.
Oh, and the Kohl's is more expensive and you pay tax.
I think it's fair to say that this tablet is better.
For what it's worth, Polaroid doesn't make tablets.
They find the cheapest rock-bottom tablet ODM that they can in China and then give them $0.50 more per unit to slap, "Polaroid" on it.
