- " Oh come on! Will somebody just kill this little runt already? "
- ―Juanita commenting on Ratchet on DreadZone. [Deadlocked]
Juanita Alvaro[1] was an anchorwoman for Vox News, she was the main co-worker along with Dallas.
Alongside Dallas, Juanita would make comments about Ratchet: seemed to be the more aggressive of the duo. She was sadistic towards Ratchet, who she hoped would die a painful death. She was also constantly irritated by Dallas's sexist behavior. Despite wishing for Ratchet's death, Juanita swiftly changed her attitude when Gleeman Vox threatened to destroy the DreadZone Station, from which she escaped with Dallas.
After DreadZone's destruction
According to reality Holo-Vision, they were both then "blissfully" married, with Juanita constantly setting deathtraps for Dallas. In actual fact, the marriage was fake, part of a new TV show they hosted. The marriage was a stunt to boost ratings, but Dallas switched the actor with a real justice of the peace. Juanita was unaware of this throughout her life.

- Juanita enjoyed eating cooked Lombax brains with eggs and salsa, made by her very own mother.[3]
- Juanita once poisoned Dallas's coffee during a The 'Zone broadcast.

25.Nov.2010 "Happy" Thanksgiving
No explanation…
Happy Thanksgiving.
No explanation…
Happy Thanksgiving.
I don't get it.
Oohhhhh…I think I get it. Don/Nanny is the person in the profile pic. This is a post ridiculing a transgendered person. Lovely.
Actually, the joke is that this woman clearly doesn't know how to use facebook. The first status is a little Christmas greeting, signed by her (Don), and her two dogs (Nanny and Bailey). The second status is her responding to an App request from her friend Shirley. Don doesn't realize that posting in her status won't send a direct message to Shirley…
But THANKS for saying that my Aunt looks like a transgendered person. You seem really nice.
HAHA ^ ::snort::
I think Don is the Nanny, and that (he? she?) for some reason assumes "lol" means Lots of Love.
BTW, awesome new layout! 😀

Here's a quick recipe courtesy of Jason Q. the chef here at The Birmingham News.
Blueberry Biscuits (You can use any fruit)
Fresh or frozen blueberries OR your child's favorite fruit
Biscuits (canned or Bisquick version)
Regular sugar
Confectioners sugar
Bake your biscuits as normal.
In a saucepan mix in the fruit and a splash of water 1/4 cup of sugar
On low heat mix and stir until it's warmed through, almost like a syrup.
The glaze will be created with three tablespoons of milk and 1/4 to 1/2 of confectioners sugar. (Basically eyeball this part -- you want it be a thin glaze but not runny)
Once your biscuits are done slice them (open them)
Scoop some of the fruit mixture on the bottom part of the biscuit and replace the top.
Spoon your glaze over the top.
What's your favorite breakfast recipe?

Those are adorable, Amy. Love the orange. Did the spray adhesive come off the back of the stencils easily? When I worked on my project, I was too scared to use spray adhesive b/c I didn't know how well it would wash off and didn't want a pile of sticky stencils. Great work!
So jealous of your prize bundle!! Martha – you can send stuff my way anytime you want to 😉 Love the coasters!
Those paints look amazing. I just got a 40% off coupon for Martha's paint at Michaels…I think I'll go today and try some myself. Thanks so much for sharing your experience with the new paints.
So pretty!! Love the colors!
Your painted tiles are positively splendid!!
Hope you will bring one of your projects or posts to my Potpourri Friday Party. Link up begins Thursday afternoon. Your participation will help make it a success!
Oh my how creative!! Would LOVE it if you would link this up at my turquoise lovin' party going on right now!! 😉 http://www.sweetlittlegals.com
Beautiful color choices! These are awesome.
Gorgeous! I LOVE the design and colors. I would love it if you would stop by and share at the crafty link party going on right now at Lines Across My Face.
I hope to see you soon,
Love this! These would make such great presents! I bet the kiddos would love making something like this for grandparents.
As Amanda asked, I'm curious about the adhesive spray too! I was nervous to use it on my project. Did it come off the stencils?
I want to run to my nearest ReStore and buy some plain tiles and make my own right now! These are great!
WOW!! I saw the Martha Stewart product line at our Michael's yesterday and was impressed with the selection of colors and other products she had. Now that I've seen your creative art I will be heading back to Michael's to pick up some of Martha's paints. Thanks for sharing your project with us.
These look fantastic and thanks for the great tutorial!
Thanks for sharing
Lowri 🙂
Wow! These tiles are really beautiful! I think they would be perfect for my brand new linky party!

Cute Cute! I love the colors you used 🙂
You can not imagine how happy i am to see that you've posted this! Maybe i'm just not searching properly, but this was the only place where i could find out how to paint my own (premade) tiles. All of the other sites only told me how to do it from scratch!

Mao Asada(HD version) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZvzxNAkIHfM
I noticed that Ashley has two level-3 spins (FSSp and CCoSp) and that they're actually planned as level 3, she's not even trying to get a level 4: she's performing only two level features in each spin (two difficult variations in the FSSp, and the jumped change of foot+the broken leg position in the CCoSp). This means automatically losing 0.9 points, almost one point: Maybe she is planning to hold one of the positions for 8+ revolutions? But she was clearly not trying to do that during her performance...
Maybe the current focus is just getting comfortable with the 3-3...
LADIES SHORT PROGRAM - RESULT & VIDEOS (Updated)
1. Mao ASADA (JPN) - 73.18 Short Program, 2nd Copy, 3rd Copy, 4th Copy, 5th Copy
2. Ashley WAGNER (USA) - 69.26 Short Program, 2nd Copy, 3rd Copy, 4th Copy
3. Elena RADIONOVA (RUS) - 67.01 Short Program, 2nd Copy
4. Valentina MARCHEI (ITA) - 59.25 Short Program, 2nd Copy
5. Viktoria HELGESSON (SWE) - 58.80 Short Program, 2nd Copy, 3rd Copy
6. Elene GEDEVANISHVILI (GEO) - 56.68 Short Program, 2nd Copy, 3rd Copy
7. Mae Berenice MEITE (FRA) - 55.84 Short Program, 2nd Copy
8. Samantha CESARIO (USA) - 53.51 Short program, 2nd Copy
9. Elizaveta TUKTAMYSHEVA (RUS) - 53.20 Short Program, 2nd Copy
10. Caroline ZHANG (USA) - 45.76 Short Program, 2nd Copy
Ashley's 3Toe combo was totally underrotated. She cheats the entrance of that jump so much by pulling around on the ice with her toepick.
I would be OK with it if she wasn't "all one color" going down.
I know I'm biased as I have a crush on her, but most of the things that people were saying they didn't like about Liza's SP (including Nicky and Simon) were the things I did like about it!
I forgot to go looking for videos of the Finlandia performances before Skate America started, but I had read some of the comments at the time. And I remember some people (including you-know-who that always criticises Liza!) complaining about her costume.
Well, I actually liked it! Yes, she was wearing yet another black costume (and there's nothing wrong with that. If she likes wearing black, then who are we to complain?!). But at least this one had a totally different shape and design to it. The implied bare shoulder and bare arms made the world of difference.
As for Liza's music, I didn't think it was as bad as the Eurosport commentators made out. It would have been alright were it not for the "vocals". That wail at the end would have woke up all the dogs in Detroit!!! Get rid of the "vocals", and it would be a lot better.
As for the skate itself, there is no denying that it wasn't great. But, one thing I did like was the way Liza was putting in a bit of personality. In fact, it reminded me a lot of Akiko Suzuki's style of skating, in this respect.
As for the rest of the competitors, there are just 2 things I want to comment about. Firstly, I think something needs to be done about Valentina Marchei's costume. Nothing major - she just needs a good bra. It is really off-putting when a female skater comes on the ice, and you realise just how cold they are, because you see the outline of things you shouldn't see the outline of!
So, I was not at all surprised when Valentina wrapped her coat around her VERY tightly when she was sitting waiting for the results!
Secondly, is it just me, or is Mao Asada getting worryingly thin again? I remember during the 2011 GP Series thinking "She is getting scarily thin". This was shortly before her Mum died, so you can understand why - she had a lot on her mind. She stayed like that for about a season or so, but was back to a healthy looking weight last season. And what a relief it was to see!
But, after seeing her at Skate America, I am getting concerned about her again. I really hope that it is not the pressure of this being an Olympic season starting to get to her. Not only has she got the pressure of the form Kim Yu-Na is in after what happened at Worlds, but she also has the pressure of getting onto the Japanese team in the first place, given how much competition there is in the Ladies category this time round.
Mao - don't worry about it. You'll definitely get on the team. And as for Yu-Na, you've beaten her before, and you can certainly do it again!
But you'll only beat her if you look after yourself and stay healthy. And worrying will not help you to do that.
I thought all of the short programs were nice. My favourites were Asada, Wagner and Marchei. I've never been much of fan of Ashley but her sp this year is quite nice and modern. I just hope that she will be practising her skating skills more and lets the presentation happen normally. Now she is pushing it a bit too much.

Asian markets have slipped lower as slightly improved manufacturing data from China failed to dampen fears of a slowdown in the world's number two economy.
Tokyo gave up early gains to close down 0.2 per cent, Hong Kong finished 1.84 per cent lower, Sydney shed 0.32 per cent, Seoul closed off 0.1 per cent and Shanghai closed down 0.76 per cent.
The preliminary HSBC China manufacturing purchasing managers index rose to a two-month high of 49.1 in April compared with a final reading of 48.3 in March.
A reading above 50 indicates expansion, while a reading below 50 suggests contraction.
The move higher "suggests that the earlier easing measures have started to work and hence should ease concerns of a sharp growth slowdown," HSBC chief economist for China Qu Hongbin said in a statement.
However, "the pace of both output and demand growth remains at a low level in a historical context and the job market is under pressure. This calls for additional easing measures in the coming months," he added.
The British banking giant's data mark the sixth straight month the reading remained in contraction.
Shanghai shares closed down 0.76 per cent, with investors betting that further stimulus action would not be coming anytime soon.
"The market's interpretation of today's PMI figure is that in the short term the Chinese government is not likely to take aggressive stimulus action," said Zhang Gang, a strategist at Central China Securities.
Shen Jun, an analyst at BOC International, told AFP that despite the improvement, the reading "does not indicate a recovery in the domestic economy".
China last week announced its economy grew by 8.1 per cent in the first three months of 2012, its slowest pace in nearly three years, putting pressure on Beijing to loosen its monetary policy.
On Monday metals shares were lower after gains in previous sessions.
Western Resources dropped 4.12 per cent to 19.30 yuan, Jiangxi Copper fell 1.33 per cent to 25.26 yuan and aluminium producer Chalco ended down one per cent to 6.93 yuan.
Investors will be watching the Bank of Japan's policy meeting and the US Fed's Open Market Committee meeting later this week, both of which could see the announcement of new easing measures.
"There are plenty of data and events this week including central banks in the US, Japan and New Zealand that will capture attention," Credit Agricole said in a note to clients.
"Political events in France and bond auctions in the eurozone will also provide direction. We continue to see risk aversion creeping higher against this background, which in turn will keep risk assets on the back foot," it said.
The euro eased against the dollar and yen in Asia as investors digested news that Socialist challenger Francois Hollande had beaten Nicolas Sarkozy in the first round of France's presidential election.
The euro inched down to $1.3193 and Y107.33 in Tokyo afternoon trade from $1.3216 and Y107.77 in New York late on Friday.
The dollar fell to 81.34 yen from Y81.52.
Hollande has said he would move to renegotiate a fiscal pact agreed on by European leaders late last year, shifting the focus toward growth rather than enforcing austerity measures as a buffer against the eurozone debt crisis.
"There is concern that the policies (Hollande) has been promoting could create friction between other major nations, including Germany," said Masafumi Yamamoto, chief forex strategist at Barclays Capital in Tokyo.
The IMF raised $US430 billion ($A415.80 billion) in new funds for crisis intervention on Friday, with China and other emerging economic giants taking part despite worries the money will go to more eurozone bailouts.
"We have commitments that are north of $430 billion. That almost doubles the lending capacity of the fund," IMF managing director Christine Lagarde said after meetings of the IMF and finance chiefs of the Group of 20 economic powers.
It came at a time when worries were mounting that Spain and Italy could founder and require international support following rescues for Portugal, Ireland and Greece.
The Dow climbed 0.5 per cent on Friday, the broader S&P 500 was up 0.12 per cent but the Nasdaq fell 0.24 per cent.
The Fed's interest rate-setting panel will meet on Tuesday and Wednesday to decide whether more stimulus for the spluttering economy is warranted.
While Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke has sounded more positive in recent weeks, high petrol prices, slowing job growth and Europe's debt problems have raised fears of another spring stumble.
On oil markets, New York's main contract, light sweet crude for delivery in June shed nine cents to $103.79 while Brent North Sea crude for June delivery rose four cents to $118.80.
Gold was at US$1,632.75 an ounce at ,1030 GMT (2030 AEST) compared with $1,643.62 late ON Friday.

A female attending Hofstra University that is known for wearing short mini-skirts, Ughh boots, small tops and too much make up any time of the day or year. Hofstra Girls usually are anorexically thin but become so thin by use of cocaine. They are prone to sleeping around and nailing most anyone. From Thursday to Sunday night (and most week nights too) they can be found at one of the local bars such as McCeeb's, Bogart's, or the Dizzy Lizard geting wasted so that they the will sleep with anyone. They usually carry hofstra red so use of a condom while scoring this easy easy lay is recommended.

In February, 1908, Moro1 reported a series of 68 cases in which he had used a tuberculin inunction as a means of demonstrating hypersensitiveness to that substance. The salve employed was composed of equal volumes of old tuberculin and anhydrous lanolin. In manifest tuberculosis, the salve reaction and the von Pirquet reaction were positive in 12 cases and negative in 4; in glandular tuberculosis, positive in 6 and negative in 1, while in cases of suspected tuberculosis they were positive in 12 and negative in 8. In 25 cases in which no suspicion of tuberculosis existed, the salve reaction of Moro was positive in 3 cases only, while the von Pirquet was positive 8 times. In addition to these 68 cases, 21 tuberculosis-free children reacted negatively and 4 children with manifest disease positively to the salve. In 30 cases, control inunctions with resorbin and adeps

My fellow citizens
I appreciate your calls and concerns about the conditions that exist in the county and various subdivisions. It is true that I am aware of most but not all of the concerns mentioned. They are in violation of county Zoning Regulations and my previous request to clear the lots of automobiles out of service and cut the vacant lot of the growing grass and weeds. I am pleased to say that some have done a superb job of cleaning and cutting some of the lots and trimming of the shrubs on their premises. This is important because these snakes and other insects can be very harmful if you should become bitten by either one of them.

La Cruz de Huanacaxtle is a quiet small fisherman town (total population: 1621 inhabitants) located in the state of Nayarit, north of Puerto Vallarta.
It's between Punta de Mita and Bucerías, closer to Bucerías and is, more or less, 30 minutes from downtown Puerto Vallarta, depending on if you drive, you take a bus or a taxi, the last one is the option that'll get you there fastest...
La Cruz has now become much more relevant as part of a larger tourist development called Riviera Nayarit. In 2008 the harbor of La Cruz was renovated and is now called Marina Riviera Nayarit, a modern marina with 340 slips that can accommodate vessels from 31 to 400 feet.
La Cruz is:
View La Cruz de Huanacaxtle in a larger map
The name of the town, translated as Cross of Huanacaxtle, comes from a cross that was located in the town's entrance, that was made from a tree called Huanacaxtle (Enterolobium cyclocarpum), which is also called Oreja de Elefante (Elephant ear) in other parts of America.
The town itself was founded in the 1930's by the Chávez family that still lives in the town. The town is known as "La Cruz" to the locals and is a picturesque rustic village.
For those interested in a more laid-back vacation or place to retire, together with Bucerías, this cobblestone street town offers a more Mexican and less mainstream lifestyle.
The weather in La Cruz is cooler than what the beaches down the coast offer. La Cruz, thanks to its Marina and harbor is a favorite for boater visitors from the US, Canada and Europe, some of which have established themselves in the town, bringing with them an array of businesses, so you can now enjoy a Huichol Indian Art Gallery, cafés, various international food restaurants, local charity events, plus the local eateries and stores.
La Cruz de Huanacaxtle has many beautiful beaches, the own local beach, called La Manzanilla, known for its calm waters and the great food you'll find in the beachside palapa restaurants.
Close by you'll have access to Destiladeras beach and Careyeros, plus Bucerías, further north you have easy access to Sayulita, San Pancho, Chacala, Chacalilla, Rincón de Guayabitos and La Peñita.

Nokia CEO Stephen Elop was a favourite to replace Ballmer, even before Microsoft announced that it was buying Nokia's phone business.
For many people that's because of his bold approach at Nokia, from his "burning platform" memo to mocking Samsung at the Lumia 920 announcement for announcing a phone they couldn't even demonstrate.
Satya Nadella pipped him to the post for that coveted position in February. The acquisition of Nokia's devices and services arm by Microsoft and its change of name, to Microsoft Mobiles Oy, will also mark the return of Elop to the fold.
He can be outspoken: back in 2009 he called the idea of putting everything in the cloud instead of using software on a device "hogwash." But his record on predicting trends is generally better than that statement suggests: at the same time he talked about consumer technology and social networks arriving inside companies, and both are commonplace now.
He's certainly pragmatic. Faced with operator complaints about Skype undermining call revenue, he cleverly turned it into a way of working with the networks: "Instead of them just complaining about Skype, we can have a conversation. Some operators are looking at bundling Lumia, Skype and their own services with higher-bandwidth allotments to actually charge the consumer more and generate more revenue."
But he also managed to turn around Nokia's culture, which ranged from paranoid (a Nokia developer once told me the company couldn't open source its LifeBlog software because people hated Nokia and wouldn't participate) to stodgy.
In 2011, Elop described Nokia as "reliable, durable, trustworthy. We comb our hair neatly each morning, we pick you up after school when we say we will, we always send you a birthday card." He managed to get the reserved Finns to speak up in meetings and to make firm commitments, and there's a new excitement among even long-time Nokia employees.
Nokia has lost the massive market share it used to have; that was a trend that started long before he arrived there, and while selling the phone business to Microsoft can't have been what the Nokia board originally hoped for, you have to give Elop and Nokia credit for most of the success for Windows Phone 8 (since over 80% of all Windows Phones sold are from Nokia).
When Nokia head-hunted him in September 2010, he was running Microsoft's Business division; that included Office and unified communications – Exchange, SharePoint, Lync, Project and Dynamics, as well as the Office applications. He was running Office when Office 2010 and the Office Web apps launched, and Office 365 was still in development.
The Office Web apps weren't an immediate hit, but they were an important step in putting Office tools on more platforms than just Windows and Mac. At the time, Elop said the danger for Microsoft wasn't competition from free tools like Google Docs but resting on its laurels and not innovating enough. "We have to be out innovating the competition; at the end of the day if we provide more value we'll win."
Elop's team has gone on to success
Other products were definitely successful. SharePoint 2010 was one of the key milestones for the product and Exchange 2010 was also a significant launch, especially as it was followed by both Google and Apple (and indeed Nokia) licensing the Exchange ActiveSync protocol. At that point, the Exchange team was run by someone who's worked with Elop a lot since then: former Windows Phone head Terry Myerson, who is now in charge of all operating system development at Microsoft.
In fact, a number of people who worked for Elop in the Business division have gone on to senior positions inside Microsoft.

2012 Master Landscape Management Program Graduates 38
Submitted by Laura Sanagorski
The Florida-Friendly Landscaping™ program emphasizes nine major principles that protect natural resources through erosion prevention, water conservation, reduction of waste and pollution, and the creation of wildlife-sustaining habitats. The Palm Beach County Master Landscape Management (MLM) program was developed by Laura Sanagorski, environmental horticulture extension agent, to encourage the use of University of Florida / IFAS research-based best management practices in the landscape, with a focus on the nine components of the Florida-Friendly Landscaping program.
The eight-week UF/IFAS Palm Beach County Cooperative Extension Service's 2012 Master Landscape Management course concluded successfully in March. A total of 38 Palm Beach County area horticultural professionals completed the entire program and earned a striking certificate of accomplishment. An additional 21 persons completed individual classes "a la carte." Participants represented commercial tree care, landscape design, installation, and maintenance firms, as well as county and municipal public works, parks and recreation, and landscaping departments.
There were 22 university specialists, industry subject experts, and local extension faculty members who conducted presentations and hands-on learning activities over the course of this program. Topics included: Pruning Young Trees for Structure; Florida-Friendly Landscaping™ Legislation; What License Do I Need?; Fertilization and Palm Nutrition; and Extension Services Available to You, to name a few. Hands-on learning activities included a landscape design elements tour, an insect scouting workshop, and a demonstration on proper planting.
Participants said they were highly satisfied with the quality of education they received, and they enthusiastically shared their feedback. Here are some of their written comments:
"I am so grateful that this level of professionalism exists in our county."
"I learned so much in this course. [My employer] also sees the value in it and will increase my salary for earning this certificate."
"As a new landscape designer, I found this information to be superbly informative."
"It was my privilege to have learned so much from so many passionate and resourceful people in the horticulture industry. I am also very impressed with the professionalism of the Palm Beach County Extension Service."
Many horticultural professionals are required to earn continuing education units (CEUs) to maintain the licenses they need to do their jobs. This program provides professionals with a reasonably-priced source of quality CEUs in a number of licensing areas. Nearly 500 CEUs were earned by this hard-working group, including eight from the Landscape Inspectors' Association of Florida, 60 from the Florida Nursery, Growers, and Landscape Association, 81.75 from the International Society of Arboriculture, and 345 pesticide applicators.
University of Florida agricultural economists recognize a return value of $3,200 per CEU (Steed, 2011; Hodges et. al 2011). Based on this figure, the 2012 Master Landscape Management Program resulted in more than a $1.5 million return to Palm Beach County. The next program will begin in January 2013. For more information, please contact Laura Sanagorski at 233-1748.

My Life On Paperby Jason D. Lasconia
Some people talked behind my back, sometimes they say unpleasant things about me, but the thing is, they only knew my name and never my story. My name is Jason Delegencia Lasconia, eighteen years old at this time. I am celebrating my birthday every 28th day of February. I was born at Purok Malimas Anakan, Gingoog City and currently living there. I have four brothers and also having four sisters, and luckily I happened to be the youngest, but sadly I have now only three brothers left because our eldest was already gone last March 21, 2010 due to lung cancer.Anyway,we had fully recovered from itaolng with our loving parents. My father's name is Pablo Norquia Lasconia and my sweet mother is no other than Mrs. Wulfeda Cudilla Delegincia. I am studying at Bukidnon State University, External Studies Center at Gingoog City, taking up Bachelor of Science in Information Technology , going on second year next semester. I finished my kindergarten in Sacred Heart of Jesus Academy at Anakan, Gingoog City. My Elementary in Odiongan Central School (OCS) at Odiongan GIngoog City. My Alma Mater in Odiongan National High School (ONHS). I have an inspiring message to share, "A fish would never be happy living in land because it is made for water. You will never feel completely satisfied on earth because you were made for heaven" (rev. 21:1). Life for me are unpredictable and always confusing. Even if you do things in the right way, some would still be unsatisfied, some will not appreciate what you say and what you do, and there would always be people who would let you down too. But as long as you speak honestly from the heart, you'll be fine. This is not a perfect world nor a perfect life. Life is almost always unfair. But life loves the person who dares to live it. When I was young, I had always been thinking about my ambition. That's when I grow older and finished my studies, I would definitely become an Information Technology Specialist, having my own successful and a very big Call Center Company, and also having a famous super computer that could see a future. How I wish a for a time machine, so that I could travel into the future and set everything complete. But I know that I cannot do that after all, all I can do is to strive hard and face all the challenges and ask God for my guidance. But sometimes God seems to be quite. He seems to be absent and never listens. We call him but never answers. We ask him for help, but He never rescues. I ask God, "Why God? in my deepest trouble you were not with me?". God smile and told me, "I never left you, I just want to watch you fighting, using my words that are stored in your heart and mind as your weapon, I'll always be with you, just... Be with Me always. We can reach our ambition, if we trust ourself fully. Do not be disappointed if others refuse to help you, remember the word of Einstein: "I'm thankful to all those who said no, because of them, I did it myself!". Like what I said, they only knew my name and never my story. I am for who I am, trusting in myself confidently, that there will be good things God prepared for me, and it will happen. Soon.

while loop and nested if statement problems
hi everyone. hope u'r all doin great 2day. i'm trying to a prob i have with loops
so far the code i've writtin was successfully built but my answers are not right . cld somebody please check this code and tell me why i'm getting wrong answers with it?
#include "stdafx.h"
Geometry Calculator:
* Use nested if-else statements for all decision making in the program.
* Declare PI as a double constant with value 3.14159
* Use a while loop to repeat until the user types a 4 as shown below. If the operation code is not 1 through 4, then print an error message and go to the next data item.
* If a negative data value is entered by the user (or read from file), make it positive and use it.
* Use double for all your data variables and print all values with 4 decimal places.
* When the operation is 4, print "Thank you for using my calculator" and end the program.
* In the data given, the first figure is the operation value. An operation value of 1 refers a circle and the next value is the radius. An operation value of 2 or 3 refers to a triangle and the values after it are the base and height of the triangle. Operation values of 5 and 7 should show error messages
int operation;
1 4.58
2 6.34 5.8
3 7 -13
2 -6 19.4443
3 81.8 0.543
1 -8976
2 12.58 3
After you have the program running on the screen, change the I/O to file I/O. Your output should be as shown in the sample below, with a blank line between each output:
The area of a circle with radius 4.5800 is 14.3885
Error: 5 is not a valid operation
The area of a triangle with base 7.0000 and height 13.0000 is 45.5000
Thank you for using my calculator
Re: while loop and nested if statement problems
Have you solved this one as well and are about to make another post with the next bit?
Or are you really stuck this time?

My kids absolutely love when they get included in on reviewing bath products and this time it was Brody's turn to try out a bath time treat. What better treat than ME! bath Bath Ice Cream in Strawberry Kiwi.
He wasn't sure what to think at first when I put in the pink round scoop of Bath Ice Cream into his bath tub. The scoop immediately began to fizz and bubble in his tub and the delicious fragrance of fresh strawberries with the sweet and tarte scent of Kiwi dispersed throughout the room. The strawberry scent reminds me of strawberry shortcake with that delicious sponge cake and a dollop of cool whip–sweet, creamy and delicious!
He giggled as his tub water turned pink like cotton candy and he splashed like a little fish in water. ME! bath Bath Ice Cream comes large or mini size with 1 scoop for large and 6 delectable scoops for mini that will moisturize even those with the smallest skin with its essential oils and minerals. There are 35 flavors to choose from so whether you purchase it for your kid or a kid at heart, it'll be sure to make bath time a great substitute for dessert! www.mebath.com

The Panhandle Regional Planning Commission will help create emergency- preparedness plans for 58 jurisdictions in the region with a $251,358 grant from the Texas Department of Public Safety Division of Emergency Management.
John Kiehl, regional services director of the commission, said the grant application, approved at a commission meeting Thursday, is a formality and the commission will begin work immediately on developing plans.
Several planners will be hired on a part-time basis to complete these plans by Dec. 31, Kiehl said.
"We'll do county-level planning," he said. "We'll work together to address future emergency needs."
Kiehl said many counties have plans not understood by current officials, and this project should make workable, realistic plans for every official.
The commission also reviewed grant applications by the Dallam-Hartley Counties Hospital District for an assisted-living facility and by Dalhart and Borger for renovations to city pools.
Jamie Goldson, director of the Area Agency on Aging, said a $2.3 million grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture would be added to funds raised by the hospital district and help build a 26-unit facility across from Coon Memorial Hospital. The closest assisted-living center is 90 miles away in Amarillo.
The grant applications for the pools were $500,000 each and would be matched by each city.

WEST AMWELL TWP. — A crash at the junction of Route 31 and Linvale-Harbourton Road (Route 579) on Oct. 7 at 3:29 p.m. sent a woman to the hospital.
Emeline Strobel-Chong, 21, of Lansdale, Pa., northbound on Route 31, began making a left turn onto Linvale-Harbourton Road directly into the path of a southbound vehicle driven by James Destefano, 33, of Portland, Ore., police said.
Strobel-Chong was transported to the Hunterdon Medical Center with back-injury complaint by the Amwell Valley Ambulance Corps. Destefano and a passenger, Toni Verrilli, 39, of Portland, were both checked by Amwell Valley Ambulance personnel on complaints of neck injuries, but declined to be transported to a medical facility.
Both vehicles sustained heavy front- end damage and were towed from the scene. Investigating Patrolman Edward Skillman issued Strobel-Chong a summons charging her with careless driving.

WASHINGTON -- Wal-Mart Stores, in a move to shore up its image, has attempted to answer its critics with the release of several economic studies highlighting the impact the retail giant has on prices, jobs and wages. Seeking more "transparency" and balanced coverage, the Bentonville, Ark.-based retailer held a tightly controlled symposium here at the J.W.

The guy is slow and plodding, but ifg he catches you clean you are going down. I had a Foreman vs Lyle type of a fight online. I was Foreman and the other person was Tyson. There was a big speed disadvantage, and I got knocked down twice in the first 2 minutes, but every time I landed a clean counter I stunned him, and I knocked him down with one second left in the first. The **** continued like that until I trapped Tyson in a corner, and landed some vicious uppercuts that ended it in the 5th. There was a total of 8 knockdowns in the fight. Lol, Foreman is a beast.

AKA adult pubic lice or crabs, saber-toothed crotch crickets are parasites. These insects are generally found in the crotchal area and they may cause itching.

Updated: FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Every day my office answers dozens of questions and investigates a variety of concerns from NPR's audience. We thought it would be useful to post answers to some of the more commonly asked questions, including the office's objectives, the difference between NPR and local stations, funding, corrections, underwriting policies and just what is an Ombudsman and how do you pronounce it?
If your concern is not addressed here, please feel free to contact me.
—Alicia C. Shepard
Updated on 11/1/2010
What is an Ombudsman?*
An Ombudsman is the public's representative in an organization, charged with responding to public questions, criticisms and complaints. An Ombudsman works to provide clear explanations, and/or mutually satisfactory solutions between the public and the organization. Ombudsmen can be found in government, corporations, hospitals, universities as well as at news enterprises.
Sweden appointed the first formal ombudsman in 1809 to handle citizen complaints about the government. The word is pronounced "om-BUDS-man" and is Scandinavian in origin.
Alicia "Lisa" Shepard is NPR's Ombudsman and sees no need to change the title to Ombudswoman. She is an award-winning media critic, university lecturer on media ethics, and former newspaper reporter. Ms. Shepard deals with public queries about journalistic issues; and reports some of her findings in her weekly column.
How does NPR's Ombudsman do her work?*
NPR's Ombudsman helps explain the often-complicated process of reporting a news event. She shares with the public how reporters, editors, producers, and other journalistic staff do their work and make decisions about news coverage.
Ms. Shepard's public activities include:
- Writing a weekly column on media matters which is posted and archived on NPR's website;
- Appearing on NPR programs to discuss journalistic matters;
- Providing guidance on journalism practices on request to NPR member stations;
- Responding to individual comments, queries and criticisms from the public.
Alicia Shepard is assisted by her staff who read emails and take phone calls every business day. The NPR Ombudsman receives more than 75,000 listener inquiries annually. Assisted by staff, Ms. Shepard listens to and monitors NPR's programs and web content for accuracy, fairness, balance, and thoroughness, and reads many comments, queries, kudos and complaints from listeners and web visitors.
When a query or complaint warrants her direct engagement, Ms. Shepard takes it up with appropriate NPR News and Digital staff and responds directly to the public inquirer. She might also write about the matter in her column for wider public interest and information.
*Adapted from the Organization of News Ombudsmen (ONO) website
Do all broadcast outlets have Ombudsmen?
No. In fact, few do. In 2000, NPR became the first U.S. broadcast news organization to create an Ombudsman position. See the Organization for News Ombudsmen for more information.
How can NPR's Ombudsman be truly independent when the position is paid for by NPR?
The NPR Ombudsman holds two-year appointment and is guaranteed editorial independence. She operates autonomously from NPR's news staff, using her professional judgment in reporting how and why something got on the air or on the web.
How do I contact the NPR Ombudsman?
Please use the "contact us" page, or call 202-513-3245. All calls will be listened to, and all emails read. We will try our best to get back to you. But due to the volume of traffic- some 75,000 emails last year alone- not all will receive an individual response. Many will be forwarded to the appropriate news person inside NPR.
The Ombudsman will post a column once a week. We invite you to comment on the post and you are free to keep the discussion going.
What is the difference between Listener services, Communications and the Ombudsman's office?
Listener Services helps NPR listeners locate information about what they hear on the air, or find a story, or get a transcript. For questions, please call NPR Listener Services at (202) 513-3232 Monday-Friday, 10am -5pm EST.
NPR Listener Services also provides weekly public tours of NPR studios in Washington DC., as well specialized group tours of NPR West .
Washington DC Headquarters tours are held at 11am EST every Thursday, meeting at our lobby located at 635 Massachusetts Ave NW, Washington DC 20001. No reservations are required but you must have a government issued photo ID.
NPR West offers public tours on Thursday at 8:30am PST, at 9909 Jefferson Blvd., Culver City, CA 90232. Tours must be booked one week in advance as there are limited spaces. NPR also provides tours for university groups, media students and other organizations. For tour information, call 310-841-0640. NPR West has limited parking space but metered street parking is available.
NPR Communications handles the public representation of NPR. They promote awareness about NPR and its member stations as incomparable sources of news, talk, music, and entertainment programming. The department also works in collaboration with NPR's station support services, including online, audience research, on-air promotions, development services, and programming, to help stations attract and build diverse audiences. They also deal with press inquiries.
The Ombudsman's Office investigates inconsistencies and ethical concerns about NPR's journalism. The office is committed to creating transparency and communication within the newsroom. Using the NPR Code of Ethics, the Office of the Ombudsman ensures that NPR programming and hosts/reporters refrain from biased and inaccurate coverage.
How do I submit a correction?
Please visit our Corrections page to see if the error has already been resolved, or write to email@example.com.
Will my correction be broadcast?
Not necessarily. Each show determines how to handle on-air corrections. Most corrections are aired in the "letters" segments.
Are biographies of NPR reporters and hosts available?
Yes. Yes, they are.
Why haven't I heard stories about a particular subject on NPR?
NPR produces 39 hours of news programming each week on "Morning Edition", "Tell Me More", "Talk of the Nation" and "All Things Considered". The network also distributes hundreds of hours of programming produced by local stations, such as "On the Media", "Car Talk", "Fresh Air" and "The Diane Rehm Show". NPR distributes 1,500 hours of programming weekly to the 800-plus NPR Member stations around the country. One of the best ways to check what NPR has broadcast is to search for your topic.
NPR also distributes programs internationally via NPR Worldwide.
Is NPR on satellite radio?
NPR has a contract with Sirius Satellite Radio providing two channels- NPR Talk and NPR Now- which offer "Car Talk", "Fresh Air", "Talk of the Nation", "Prairie Home Companion", "Marketplace" and many others.
Why can't I listen to "Morning Edition" or "All Things Considered" on satellite radio?
These two newsmagazine are the most listened to programs in public radio. Covering national and international news with the quality and depth that NPR does is expensive."Morning Edition" and "All Things Considered" are possible because NPR member stations pay significant program fees to NPR. Those fees largely finance the production of these news shows and in turn, "Morning Edition" and "All Things Considered" help stations raise substantial contributions from listeners. Importantly, that listener support is the largest source of revenue for NPR's local stations. Providing the newsmagazines on satellite radio would disrupt this model and could undermine NPR stations.
Where are NPR's U.S. offices?
NPR's headquarters are in Washington, DC. In the U.S, NPR has correspondents, regional editors, or studios and full bureaus in Atlanta, Austin, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Kansas City, Los Angeles (Culver City), Miami, Nashville, New York, Portland, Raleigh, Salt Lake City, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle, and Tucson.
Where are NPR's production studios?
NPR shows are produced in Washington, DC; at NPR West in Culver City, Los Angeles; and at NPR NY, in Manhattan.
NPR Headquarters are located at 635 Massachusetts Ave NW, Washington DC 20001, between the Mt. Vernon Square/7th Street-Convention Center Metro Station and the Gallery Place/ Chinatown Metro Station, via the Green, Orange, Red, or Yellow Lines.
NPR West (in Culver City, CA) is NPR's second largest facility. Established in late 2002, NPR West is designed to provide back up for NPR headquarters should NPR headquarters be unable to broadcast programming. NPR West expands NPR's capacity to bring comprehensive news of the West to its national newsmagazines, newscasts and cultural programming. The bi-coastal "Morning Edition" is broadcast from DC and Culver City.
Where are NPR correspondents based outside the U.S.?
There are 18 bureaus around the world located in Baghdad, Beijing, Berlin, Cairo, Dakar, Senegal, Hanoi, Istanbul, Jerusalem, Johannesburg, Kabul, Afghanistan, London, Mexico City, Moscow, Nairobi, Kenya, New Delhi, Rio de Janeiro, Rome and Shanghai.
How many of my tax dollars go to NPR?
NPR receives no direct funding from the federal government. Less than two percent of the budget is derived from competitive grants from federally funded organizations such as the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, National Science Foundation, and National Endowment for the Arts.
Approximately half of NPR's funding comes from NPR member stations. In an average year, NPR funds about 45 percent of its operations with membership dues and program fees from member stations. The balance of NPR's annual revenue is derived from private foundations, individuals and corporations, in the form of grants, gifts, investment proceeds, and corporate sponsorships. NPR receives some revenue from distribution fees and fees from tapes and transcripts. Financial statements, based on annual audits, are available in NPR's most recent Annual Report (5.7 MB - Requires Adobe Acrobat).
What is "Underwriting" and is it different from Advertising?
Yes, underwriting is different from advertising. NPR is an independent, nonprofit organization that carries no on-air advertising. One of the ways NPR funds programming and general operations is through underwriting and sponsorship support from corporations, foundations, and associations. This support provides virtually all of NPR's contributed income.
Unlike advertisements, NPR's on-air underwriting credits are only 10-seconds long— just enough time to state the organization or company name. Regulations from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) govern all underwriting and sponsorship announcements by NPR and public radio stations. The regulations require NPR and stations to provide funders on-air recognition while stipulating that these credit announcements are strictly for identification- not promotion.
Credits may contain:
- a neutral description of products or services
- a recognized corporate slogan that identifies the company or products
- a statement of business locations, a Web site, or a toll-free phone number
- the organization's mission
- a mention of the particular NPR programming being supported
- the duration of the business or service
The credits are informational and acknowledge a contribution but- unlike advertisements- cannot include a call-to-action. For example, NPR can announce "This show was sponsored by Ken's Barbecue in Austin, Texas." They cannot say: "This show was sponsored by Ken's Barbecue. Go to Ken's Barbeque for the best ribs in Texas. This week only: All you can eat barbeque for $5.95."

Station Issues
Where is NPR's station?
NPR is not a local station. NPR produces and/or distributes 1,500 hours of programming weekly, including more than 150 hours of news, information, talk, entertainment and cultural shows for the 800-plus NPR Member stations around the country. Since its launch in 1970, NPR has evolved into a leading multimedia company, award-winning primary news provider and dominant force in American life.
NPR also programs two 24/7 channels for Sirius satellite radio and five 24/7 music multicast channels for digital HD Radio for its member stations. NPR has served as an industry leader in HD research and development. NPR produces nearly 90 podcasts, making it among the biggest podcaster in American media companies. NPR's website offers extensive original video and audio content, hourly newscasts, concerts and free audio streaming of current and archived NPR programs.
What's the difference between NPR and my local public radio station?
There's a big difference. Local stations are independent and autonomous from NPR. Local station management make their own programming decisions, and typically offer a variety of shows from various sources including NPR.
NPR provides the most-listened-to programming in public radio, with a weekly national audience of 26.5 million listeners. Other independent producers and/or distributors include Public Radio International and American Public Media. This means that rarely would one hear the identical programming on any public radio station.
Local stations solicit direct support from listeners through regular over-the-air membership pledge drives. As a membership organization, NPR supports stations' pledge drive efforts, but does not solicit financial support for itself over the air from listeners. If you have a complaint or compliment about a particular locally produced show, you should bring it to the attention of your local station's general manager. If it's an NPR show, the local station can bring it to NPR's attention or you can contact my office directly. Information about every NPR Member Station is available. You should always feel free to contact the NPR Ombudsman as well.
How do I locate my local station?
Please visit our Domestic AM/FM page.
Where can I find a schedule of my local station's programming?
Please visit our Schedule page.

Shia LaBeouf may have been arrested for DUI after Sunday's car accident – but Transformers director Michael Bay insists the actor was not impaired.
"He was not drunk," Bay tells Access Hollywood in an interview slated to air Friday. "He was drinking hours and hours before."
But the director – currently working with LaBeouf on Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen – claims that he did warn his young star about road safety shortly before the crash.
"We had a little heart to heart the week before when he bought a brand new motorcycle," Bay told the TV show. "I [said], 'Dude! You cannot ride that motorcycle! If you crash, you put 1,500 people out of work.' He said, 'Ok, I won't ride it, I won't ride it. I'll just drive my truck.' "
The 22-year-old actor was behind the wheel of that truck early Sunday morning, when it reportedly flipped over following a collision with another car. (Police have said he may not be responsible for the accident.)
LaBeouf was taken to the hospital for extensive hand surgery. (His passenger, Transformers costar Isabel Lucas, was not seriously injured.)
"[Shia's] two fingers are pretty mashed, but we're figuring out a way to shoot around it, kind of write it in the story," Bay says.
In the meantime, the director is unwavering in his support for the Indiana Jones star.
"The kid really has his head together," he says. "He's doing a great job on this movie. He's really matured since the last one and I love working with him."

Crispy Duck Confit Ensalate, Sweet Zinfandel Vinaigrette
This decadent dish can be enjoyed anytime of the year. We have paired it with our Blend 24 (we recommend slightly chilled for this dish) for the perfect balance of fruit presence and spice. The slightly bitter greens used in this recipe off set the wine in an amazingly wonderful way. Blend 24
4 each duck legs & thighs
1 cup kosher salt
1 cup granulated sugar
1 head garlic, cloves removed
4 sprigs fresh rosemary
4 lbs duck fat rendered
Sweet Zinfandel Vinaigrette
1 750ml bottle red zinfandel
1 cup sugar
2 tbs lemon juice
1 cup extra virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Glazed Pearl Onions
2 lbs pearl onions (pealed)
4 oz-unsalted butter
Salt and pepper to taste
2 heads escarole
2 heads radicchio
2 heads frisee
1 cup packed fresh mint leaves
1 cup shaved Parmesan
Duck Confit
First cure the duck. Mix salt and sugar together and sprinkle half into a shallow pan. Layer duck legs in pan with garlic cloves and rosemary. Cover with the remaining salt and sugar mixture. Wrap tight with plastic wrap and allow to cure for 48 hours. Remove the duck from the pan and rinse thoroughly, pat dry with a towel. Place duck in a shallow baking dish, and cover with the rendered duck fat. Place baking dish on the stovetop over low heat, until fat barely comes to a simmer. Carefully wrap with aluminum foil, and bake @ 225 degrees for 6 hours or until meat easily falls off bone. Cool @ room temperature. When cool remove the duck from the fat and pull the meat off the bone in large chunks. Reserve the fat for later use.
Sweet Zinfandel Vinaigrette
Whisk the wine and sugar together. Bring red zinfandel to a simmer and reduce over low heat till syrupy (about _ cup by volume). Cool to room temperature. Whisk in olive oil and lemon juice and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Keep refrigerated until ready to use.
Glazed Pearl Onions
Place onions in a shallow sauté pan. Fill with water till onions are barely covered. Place butter on top and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Onions are finished when the water has evaporated and the onions have absorbed the butter. The onions will be tender and there will be a small amount of buttery liquid in the pan. Remove onions from the pan and allow to cool.
Chop escarole and radicchio into ribbons and soak in ice water. Clean frisee by removing dark green tops and core. Separate the pale green leaves of the frisee and soak in ice water. Dry all lettuces in a salad spinner, and reserve in a mixing bowl. Warm _ cup duck fat in a large sauté pan. Add pulled duck confit and crisp over medium heat. Add pearl onions to re-warm and pour duck -onion mixture into a mixing bowl with mint. Fold in lettuces and dress with red-zinfandel vinaigrette. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Garnish with shaved Parmesan cheese and serve.

Etched Hoop Earrings

Rated 5 out of 5 by Leslie8 Not your typical hoops These hoop earrings are very lovely. The size of the hoop is big enough to catch the attention of those around you but not so large that it appears gaudy or tacky. The etching also adds a level of detail and elegance. They do feel a little bit heavy after a couple hours. June 17, 2013

Rated 4 out of 5 by Ilioli Classy hoops I thought my hoop-wearing days were over several years ago, but alas! Madewell came up with hoops that are classy and elegant. If you can get them on sale (like I did), they're worth it. August 2, 2013

Apple Configurator 1.2: iOS 6 compatibility, bug fixes
Whether you are riding herd on an office, school or an entire entire enterprise of iThings, you probably could use a little help. That is what Apple Configurator offers — a centralized way to setup and manage the iPhones, iPod touches and iPads under your care. Best of all, it is free.
Given that iOS 6 arrived some weeks back, Apple Configurator 1.2 (free, Mac App Store) is perhaps a little late. However, this dot-update is jam-packed with new features, tweaks and bug fixes:
• Support for new iOS 6 features on supervised iOS devices
• Lock to App
• Global HTTP Proxy
• Support for new iOS 6 restrictions on supervised iOS devices
• Allow the removal of apps from the device
• Allow use of iMessage
• Allow access to iBookstore or the purchase of books classified as Erotica from iBookstore
• Allow filtering of profanity for Siri
• Allow use of Game Center
• Allow the installation of new configuration profiles
• Improved reliability when activating a new iPhone or iPad with Wi-Fi + Cellular
• The last settings used on the Prepare pane are retained when Apple Configurator is quit and relaunched
• Improved ability to update or restore devices that are currently in recovery mode
• Paid apps from the App Store can now be installed in the Prepare pane only when a device is being supervised
• Support for configuring advanced network options on Apple TV
• Bug fixes
That said, if you're planning to use Configurator to mass install apps from the App Store, that functionality requires redemption codes, which are only available via Apple's Volume Purchase Program for education or business.
