And what's wrong with that? Gaming survived before casuals, and it will survive after them. Just because the market is smaller, doesn't mean it's not there. If there is money to be made, someone will fill the niche.

Yes, slightly. Believe it or not, non-gamer people don't stare at a scenery to look for jaggies or low resolution shadows. Most people won't notice much difference between great looking iPad games and great looking Ps4 games.
Exactly, People who don't mind paying that much, And get what they pay for
iPhone>iPad, And tell me good games on iPhone other than Zenonia series and Cave shooters
Phone games quality is worse than the console games quality, And why are you even comparing a console to a tablet? Each of them have different uses

Of course they're simpler, but the huge difference in price doesn't justify that. You get 60 iPad games for one Ps4 game. No way that one Ps4 games has more content than 60 iPad games.
And on top of that, those 60 games means a great variation.

Modern day solitaire games are not going to so much as dent console sales.

The reason games survived in the past was because development costs were so low - today they reach the sky. Companies MUST sell a lot more games today to break even than they had to do in the past. That's why you can't ignore the casuals unless your game is CoD or FIFA/Madden.
And why would the casuals care about the Ps4? It's not interesting when they already have the iPad.

iPad is for people who want to play while waiting for something else
Consoles is for people who dedicate some of their time for playing
I fully agree to that, and most people don't want to dedicate time for games.

iOS/Android gaming is limited to touch gaming that plays a maximum of a PSP game and pretty much DS ports of certain games.
As much as I do play games on my phone, PS4 will just be like "lol k".

Then a console isn't for them. Gaming on an Iphone/Ipad/Android is hit or miss. Much like the Wii, casual gamers are only in it for a while then sales drop.
Zynga, the company that's famous for so many mobile games has been bleeding money and had to shut down several of its offices due to lost profits.
Mobile gaming on a phone is something you do to pass the time, and for the most part its free. Most of the revenue isn't in the one dollar purchases but in the ads they get to jam in there while you play.
Only Apple product I own is the iPod Classic. Other than the 160GB one they made a little later, everything else was absolute garbage. Haven't even considered grabbing an iPad or anything of the sort.

Just wondering what everyone is eating for healty snacks inbetween meals?? I am back to work (I teach), next Monday and have no idea what to bring to snack on. Are pretzels OK to eat?? I think they are... and what are you teachers doing for lunches?? I always ate a turkey sandwich for lunch. I'll have to get back into salads, I guess.
What are PG teachers eating between meals??
Comments (6)
I would suggest things with protein to fill you up. Sliced apple with peanut butter, string cheese & crackers, celery with cream cheese, those baby bel cheeses are good cut up with crackers, yogurt with wheat germ/flax meal/ or granola sprinkled in. I like things I can eat fairly quickly and while I am walking around when I am at school.

Why can't you eat Turkey sandwiches I do all the time. I know they say lunch meat isn't good but if it's fresh you should be fine I am 20 weeks and have been eating a sandwich at least once a day. I haven't gotten sick knock on wood.
Thanks for the suggestions, ladies!! I have to do a huge grocery shop this weekend since I start school on Monday!
Krista09: Fresh turkey is fine. I'll have to buy a little turkey and slice it up. It's just the deli kind that I used to eat that I've heard isn't that great, anymore. (Well, not every day, anyway... I guess In moderation, most things are OK.).
Thanks again! Best of luck!
I was confused hope I didn't come off snippy. Yea I ge that Sara Lee Low Sodium turkey breast.
No, no... not at all, Krista... trust me, I appreciate any suggestions about anything!! Is the Sara Lee an actual turkey?? or is it a cold cut?

Wanting to get a house rifle, wanting a cartridge large enough for a whitetail or 2 legged creature, but fairly low on the recoil. I am leaning heavily towards a used Winchester 94 but wanted see if you wonderful folks could toss me an option I had not considered. The cartridges I've considered are 30/30, 7mm.08, .308, and .243 but a .270 is not out of the question. Would like to stay under $700 and I like iron sights, not a huge fan of a scope for this particular application.

Shop the Look
full size
Product Details
Our top pick for right now? This lightweight cotton shirting-stripe style featuring a gathered neckline with a fun secretary-style tie detail we love.
Size & Fit Details
Tie-neck top in shirting stripe
Rated 3.2 out of 5 by 5 reviewers.
Rated 2 out of 5 by ADarling Perfect Cut, Horrible Fabric I have such a hard time finding tops because I'm petite. I tried this on today in the store and it the fit was PERFECT. SO CUTE.....but I could see my NUDE bra through it (even with the stripes). Please make this top in a better quality fabric. I really wanted to bring it home but just couldn't justify it. August 11, 2016
Rated 4 out of 5 by Mollypop Great for casual use I really like this on. I got it a couple weeks ago but feel compelled to write a review after seeing the surprisingly negative ones. It's a little too hot to wear it right now, but I intended it more for early fall anyway. Is this because it's from China? Can't say. Perhaps I'm not very savvy, but it wasn't very pricey either. I also cannot see my nude bra under it. I suppose it would be nice if it was all cotton, but I liked it enough to buy it nonetheless. I like to wear a nicer top with jeans to work, so this look suits my needs perfectly. August 16, 2016
Rated 4 out of 5 by eeee cute top, runs small I wear an 8 in regular clothes, so a 6 in J. Crew clothes. I ordered this blouse in an 8 to ensure a billowy drape but it just barely fits, it's almost uncomfortable under the arms. I exchanged it for a 10 ( ! ). September 5, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by ava551 Breezy, fun top. I was excited to see this top online as I was looking for one to replace a similar floral J.Crew blouse purchased two years ago. It's exactly what I hoped for, and fits as it does on the model and you can see how sheer it is by looking at the back shot. Lovely top. Dress up, dress down, I'm wearing it often. I even got caught in a complete downpour in it - silk is tough! August 17, 2016
Rated 1 out of 5 by AnnieofNorthernVA Total Disappointment I ordered this top because cotton silk is usually a very nice material, not to heavy, not to light weight. Generally it's a beautiful cool fabric, NOT this one. The fabric feels more like polyester and is very cheap, little wonder because it's made in china. In all the years I have shopped with J Crew I can honestly say I have never purchased a piece that said "made in china" until today. Needless to say this piece of garbage is going back. I have never purchased anything from china that was of good quality or made to last, You will do well to remember this J Crew. There is a huge difference in the quality of fabric from Italy and that from china. I know I am not the only loyal customer to have noticed the difference. If you persist in selling garbage made in china you will definitely loose me as a customer. August 9, 2016

Pair neons with nudes for a fresh take this winter
Normally, you wouldn't think that winter is the ideal time to try out bold new shades of neon makeup. That's usually more of a summer thing. However, makeup artist Bobbi Brown has just released a collection that's full of bright neons paired with transparent nude colors that are super fresh for winter.
According to Glamour magazine's beauty blog, the new collection is full of oranges, reds, purples, pinks and blues that are anchored by nude lipsticks, eyeshadows and eyeliners. The idea is to pick one feature to play up with neon, then make the rest of your face totally neutral. It looks great paired with hydrated skin, shiny hair and comfy knit sweaters!
Try your take on the trend by pairing a bold eyeshadow like Too Faced – Eye Shadow Duo in Lucky Charms with a completely nude lipstick, such as BORGHESE – B Moisture Advanced Care Lipcolour in Bronzino. Once you've mastered that, switch it up with nude eyeshadow and a bright lip color that pops.

Foreign Affairs Are Pivotal
Three news stories since President Obama's re-election have offered hints of the foreign policy challenges he will face in his second term — the ongoing budget debate, Middle East turmoil diverting attention from a presidential trip to Asia and continued questions about a terrorist attack that killed the U.S. ambassador to Libya and three other Americans in September.
How President Obama leads the country on these issues will set the tone for the next four years.

text: Syria Refugees in the U.S. on Eastern Standard By John Hingsbergen • Dec 9, 2015 Noah Day More than half our nation's governors, including Kentucky's new chief executive, oppose allowing Syrian refugees into the U.S. On this week's show, we'll discuss the pros and cons of such a position and learn more about the refugee experience. Guests scheduled: Dr. Minh Nguyen, professor of Philosophy and Director of Asian Studies at Eastern Kentucky University; Anne Marie Vaughn Grisanti, Community Relations and Media Coordinator for Kentucky Refugee Ministries. Syrian Man Living in Lexington Says His Native Country is Forever Changed By Stu Johnson • Oct 28, 2015 Stu Johnson / WEKU News This past weekend, a Syrian man shared his experiences during Lexington's Christian-Muslim Dialogue Group. Iyad Jabbor says he's fearful that his home country will never be what it once was. Jabbor works at the University of Kentucky. He came to America in 2013, following the Syrian uprising. Jabbor says the historic sites in the Syrian town of Alleppo are gone, some dating back 10,000 years. "The essence of Syria that we liked, that we loved, the places that we liked to hang in, all the ruins; these are not gonna be replaceable," said Jabbor. "Live" Coverage: President to Speak on Syria By John Hingsbergen • Aug 31, 2013 From the NPR Two Way Blog: President Obama is expected to speak from the Rose Garden about Syria shortly, but a White House official says his remarks will not be about imminent military operations. Instead, the official, who asked not to be named, said the president will update the public about his decision on how to proceed. The president has been considering a limited military strike against Syria, but he said Friday that he hadn't yet made a decision.

Despite the relative success of the original, The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile is still primarily the work of one man: James Silva, winner of Microsoft's 2007 Dream Build Play contest, but most well-known for creating indie channel darling I MAED A GAM3 W1TH Z0MBIES 1N IT!!!1. Silva has, once again, managed to produce a 2D side-scrolling beat-em-up of enough quality to put entire studios to shame.
The game juggles its mixture of extreme hyperviolence with a charming art style and brooding themes of revenge, and in the meantime you juggle swathes of bloodthirsty cyborgs in the air with a trusty mix of blades, shotguns, and a giant hypodermic needle you can use to skewer people to death. You can switch your arsenal on the fly, though mixing and matching two loadouts with two weapons each means this is often easier said than done in the midst of the game's rough-and-tumble battles.
Most of the game is spent progressing in one direction while stabbing everything in your way, but levels often branch into large, multi-storey affairs that encourage you to stray from the beaten path and explore for extra goodies. There's a bevy of collectibles to pick up, too, with the game knowing just as well as you that you'll probably resort to a FAQ for the locations.
The majority the game is solely focused on frantic combat, with enemies having no hesitation to clutter the screen, but much of The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile has been reworked to bring out the best in the combat engine. Enemies still drop a manageable string of audio and visual cues before launching their offensives, but no more do your adversaries feel like near-invincible damage sponges - my enduring memories of the original is the phrase "fire in the hole" and having to basically set up a standing order for continue hearts from the in-game store.
Often with The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai I felt like the only way I'd be able to see it to conclusion was to mechanically augment my eyes and hands - which seems somewhat at odds with the game's anti-cyborg vibe. Now necessary features like continues aren't limited by item stock, and your health bar takes less of a battering after making silly mistakes. This means you've got enough currency left over when running into the various robot vendors to actually invest in upgrading your weapons and abilities, thus making the game passable on normal difficulty by regular human beings.
Even relatively high concept inclusions have been tweaked. Warping, handled by flicking the right stick in the direction you want to go, has been specifically attuned to naturalistically lock-on to enemies while avoiding attacks and, while you'll still curse it when you come up against some of the hulking end of level behemoths, there's generally little frustration outside of lamenting your own incompetence.

The Ultimate "Messy" Convention: the 1924 Democratic Convention
First, we heard Donald Trump crying foul at the very mention of a "contested" convention and warning ominously of "trouble" from his supporters if they are denied a first ballot victory. Now, we have Bernie Sanders alleging a "rigged" outcome and predicting a "messy" convention if super delegates deny his claim to the nomination. While it has been several decades since we have seen a contested convention, it is definitely not uncharted waters. The parties have not only survived contested conventions, but these contested conventions have often nominated good candidates. However, there are some serious warning signs, and both parties, as they come face to face with the possibility of a "messy" 2016 convention, should heed them.
Calvin Coolidge Speaks at Wheaton College
It is interesting how close everything is in New England. As a former Midwesterner, I am used to travelling across large stretches of empty land and entering towns where nobody knows anything about me. That all changed when I moved to Vermont, where I regularly run into distant relatives and towns named after my ancestors (shout-out to Amsden, VT). I now attend Wheaton College in Massachusetts where I study music and psychology, but came back home for a summer to intern with the Calvin Coolidge Presidential Foundation. Connections ensued.
Electing a President: Coolidge Style
Many who follow politics have heard the slogan that both ideas and elections have consequences. The Founding Fathers stated in the Constitution that sovereignty is left with the people and one of the most important rights and responsibilities that we can exercise is the right to vote. Elections, regardless if they are local, state or federal, are important and voters must be informed when they cast their ballots. Russell Kirk wrote that "many Americans are badly prepared for their task of defending their own convictions and interests and institutions against the grim threat of ideology."[1] Kirk also argued that "ignorance is a luxury none of us can afford" and it is dangerous.[2] Unfortunately our nation suffers from a crisis in civic education as many Americans are ignorant of our history and the foundational principles of our nation. This crisis in civic education also impacts people who cast ballots out of ignorance or who do not even vote for whatever reason.

Split/biphasic sleep pattern. Help me adjust it!
This isn't the usual sleep question and I've had a hard time finding answers. Basically I will sleep for a few hours, then wake up for anywhere from 30 min to a hour. Then I go back to sleep. The problem is when this happens later in the morning, so that second "sleepy time" hits at 9 or 10 am. How can I keep that from happening? [more inside]

How to feel more positive more often?
So this last year has been quite tough. And I find that often in the evenings all I want to do is sit at a computer and consume news/videos/blogs. Well, that's not quite true. Actually I'd rather be creating. But I can't find the energy to lift myself up and turn from consumer to creator. I'm just too tired. [more inside]

Depressed and Anxious - Unmotivated unless I take a Tranqulizer
This seems counter-intuitive so I thought I'd search out insight as to why this happens. I have been treated for depression with anxiety for over 20 years and for the most part, my daily medicine helps me function like a normal person. I find that I tire very easily and after having explored and corrected regular medical reasons (Low D) I still feel like coming home after work and doing absolutely nothing. It feels therapeutic to crawl into bed even though my heart and stomach feel full of anxious energy. [more inside]
Spanish language version of HALT (hungry, angry, lonely, tired)?
I have an English-language health handout that includes the self-care check-yourself acronym HALT (Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired - more background on it here).

Never Get Tired
This is somewhat of a strange post, but I thought that I would post it anyways. The bottom line is that I never get tired anymore. I still sleep at night, but I don't feel any different when I go to bed then when I wake up in the morning. For nine years I used to be on Adderall for ADHD and I have been off of it for almost two years now. [more inside]

Problems getting up in the morning. Very frustrated!

Experiencing extreme fatigue after driving
If I drive for about an hour, city or highway, I am extremely tired when I get to my destination. This happens during times of day when I am otherwise perfectly alert. I usually have no problem staying awake during the day, but if I have to drive, my body is screaming for a nap afterwards. [more inside]

Advice for sleeping with sudden insomnia?
I haven't been able to sleep well for the past week; this is totally out of the blue, as I usually get around 7 hours of z's. I think it's due to stress. I'm averaging around 3 hours on a good night, which is taking its toll on my physical/emotional/cognitive health. I'm actually dreading getting into bed tonight, and would like some advice from MeFites who are struggling with/have overcome insomnia on how I can best rig my chances for possibly sleeping well.

"Why do we sleep? Because we get sleepy."
I need 8 or more hours of sleep a night, and some people need 6 or less, and I'm having a hard time dealing with the fundamental unfairness of this, and the fact that it seems like they have a huge advantage in life. I need insight from other people: emotional, practical, or scientific. [more inside]
Dealing with mental fatigue throughout the week
I usually start off the week with a lot of energy and ready to go. But by Wednesday, I feel mentally fatigued, lacking motivation, prone to procrastination, unable to focus creatively. The worst part is that I really need the energy to push through to Friday deadlines. Do you have any tips or advice to deal with this? [more inside]
Tips for powering through work when you are sick?
I think I have the flu. It's kind of mild, but has all the usual stuff like headache, body aches, lots of mucus, exhaustion, mild fever. I am also teaching a 130-student course and we are in week 11 of 13. I have 35 assignments to mark by tomorrow, an exam to finalise by Monday, and an assignment to create today. Fortunately I don't have any face-to-face time today, so I have stayed at home, but if I don't get this stuff done, not only do I miss university imposed deadlines, but I just pile up extra work for myself next week, that will make it impossible for me to prepare my lectures on time. All I want to do is curl up in bed and sleep, or watch trashy TV. Does anyone have some physical or psychological tricks for making yourself work in these circumstances?
I am exhausted all the time - help?
I'm trying to figure out why I'm exhausted all the time. Of late, I have been generally getting 8-9 hours of sleep (sometimes more), and am very tired through the day, sometimes taking an accidental nap (that I don't have time for), and after dinner I am too tired to do anything and have to push myself and am not very productive. This can't be normal. Even figuring out the general genre of the exhaustion would be helpful, especially whether it results from some sort of clear-cut medical problem or whether it's psychosomatic. I'm about to get bloodwork done, and am trying to figure out what should be tested for. More inside, and I'd love any thoughts or pointers. [more inside]

How do I deal with profound emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion?
Whenever I have a particularly stressful or taxing day, I end up being profoundly exhausted for 2-3 days after. We're talking sleeping for 16 hours each day, walking around in a daze, feeling sick after eating, and just feeling unable to do anything I want or need to do. It's like I'm dealing with trauma, but surely this isn't a normal or even reasonable response to trauma, right? If you've dealt with this in the past or are dealing with it now, could you please share any solutions you've found that have worked for you? This has been going on since 2008 for me.
How do Adult Human Beings get shit done after work?

I am jet-lagged. But I've been on the right schedule for a couple of days in terms of sleeping. And then I took a 3mg melatonin tablet last night and slept for 18 hours. Now I feel crap. Does it seem more likely that the crappy feeling is jet-lag, melatonin-induced, due to oversleeping, or that I'm coming down with something? [more inside]
Is there a pill for this?
I seem to have the patience, judgment and self-control of a two-year-old. Nothing against two-year-olds, I'm sure many of them are lovely people, but little is expected of them beyond not biting people. I've mastered the not-biting part, it's the rest I have a problem with. [more inside]

Greetings All: Well, it's February and the weather is pretty crummy which is appropriate for this time of year.

Bunch of symptoms, maybe hypothyroid, what do I do next? For the past several years, I've had a bunch of nagging symptoms that together have been very frustrating, and at times debilitating. The onset of the symptoms was about 7 years ago. My GP initially thought hypothyroidism, but the tests came back normal. As the years have gone on, the symptoms have waxed and waned but never gone away, and I keep getting retested for hypothyroidism at my doctors suggestion, but the tests always come back normal. After looking at the actual values from the lab, and a bit of research, I'm wondering if it isn't in fact hypothyroidism, and what to do next. [more inside]

Prominent Kurdish politician Abdulmelik Firat dies in Ankara
Prominent Kurdish politician Abdulmelik
Firat dies in Ankara
30, 2009
ANKARA, Turkey, — Famous Kurdish
politician Abdulmelik Fırat, who had been
hospitalized on Monday for deteriorating health due
to complications from leukemia, died in Ankara on
The 75-year-old Fırat died in the intensive care
unit of Güven Hospital in Ankara, where he was taken
early this week. As his son, Abdulmelik Firat,
previously told reporters Fırat's doctors said that
Fırat's lungs had lost 60 percent of their function.
In addition to leukemia, Fırat also suffered a
diabetic coma in June, which caused serious brain
About Abdulmelik Firat
A grandson of the Kurdish rebel leader Sheikh Said,
Fırat's family history is full of persecution, exile
and executions. A revered sheikh of the Nakshibendi
sufi order and originally from the main Kurdish city
of Diyarbakir, Sheikh Said was captured in 1925 and
hanged with many other rebel leaders. His family
members were sent into exile and were given the last
name "Fırat" ("Euphrates")
With Turkey's transition to a multi-party regime,
Firat became a deputy from the Democrat Party (DP)
in 1957 and was sent to prison following the May 27,
1960 military coup d'état,www.ekurd.netwhich
resulted in the execution of the prime minister and
two other ministers. Firat was also sentenced to
execution, but his sentence was later commuted to
In 1991, he entered
politics under the True Path Party (DYP), but
subsequently left the party because he did not agree
with its policies toward Kurds. He was sent to
prison again for two months on charges of helping
the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK).
A harsh critic of the PKK, he remained on the
political scene and finally established the Rights
and Freedoms Party (HAK-PAR) in 2001. He left three
years ago because of health problems and handed over
the post of his party's presidency to Sertaç Bucak.
Firat also lent his support for the government's
recent democratic initiative to settle Turkey's
long-standing Kurdish issue.
In early September 2009, Firat says he disagrees
with assertions that the democratic initiative will
divide the country. He emphasizes that Turks need
the initiative as badly as Kurds do, noting that the
25-year-old problem of the Turkey's separatist
Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) and the 80 years of
wrong policies implemented by the Turkish state were
intertwined. Fırat said that despite these factors,
on the public level Turks and Kurds have still been
able to live together, notably because of their
common identity as Muslims.
Both the Kurdish problem and the PKK will be solved
by the government's initiative, he said, and the
initiative has the potential to change mentalities
that have been holding Turkey back. Firat also said
the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) and the
Republican People's Party (CHP) needed to become
involved in the solution to prevent them from
damaging the initiative.
Since 1984 the PKK took up arms
for self-rule in the mainly Kurdish southeast of
Turkey (Turkey-Kurdistan) which has claimed around
45,000 lives of Turkish soldiers and Kurdish PKK
guerrillas. A large Turkey's Kurdish
community openly sympathise with the Kurdish PKK
rebels. Turkey refuses to recognize its Kurdish
population as a distinct minority.
The PKK demanded Turkey's recognition of the Kurds'
identity in its constitution and of their language
as a native language along with Turkish in the
country's Kurdish areas,www.ekurd.net
the party also demanded an end to ethnic
discrimination in Turkish laws and constitution
against Kurds, ranting them full political freedoms.
The PKK is considered as 'terrorist' organization by
Ankara, U.S., the PKK continues to be on the
blacklist list in EU despite court ruling which
overturned a decision
to place the Kurdish rebel group PKK and its
political wing on the European Union's terror list.
Turkey refuses to recognize its Kurdish population
as a distinct minority. It has allowed some cultural
rights such as limited broadcasts in the Kurdish
language and private Kurdish language courses with
the prodding of the European Union, but Kurdish politicians
say the measures fall short of their expectations.

Brief Summary
The hognosed pit viper snakes (Porthidium) make up one of the more basal of the 11 New World pit vipers genera (subfamily Crotalinae), and are part of an assemblage described as the "Porthidium group" found primarily in Middle America, between Mexico and Ecuador. The genus contains nine small terrestrial species, ranging in size from 55-75 cm (22-30 inches) long, with mottled brown cryptic coloration (Lemonte et al. 2012 and references cited within). In about half the species, the snout is slightly to strongly up turned, giving the genus its common name hognosed (Lamar and Sasa 2003). Like all viperids (family Viperidae) they are ambush predators with a pair of long, hollow fangs at the front of their mouth used for injecting toxin into their prey. The small number of identified bites of humans by hognosed pit vipers report as these as usually causing only local pain and bruising (although some systemic cases have been reported), and less severe than bites from larger central American pit vipers such as the fer-de-lance (Bothrops asper), which have a similar venom profile but deliver a much smaller dose (Lomonte et al. 2012).
Originally all species in the Porthidium group were contained in genus Porthidium, however much phylogenetic and taxonomic work has since separated this group into three genera (Porthidium, Cerrophidion, and Atrapoides). Analysis of toxicological properties of the venom further distinguishes Porthidium species from Cerrophidion (Lomonte et al. 2012). The nine currently accepted Porthidium species are: P. arcosae, P. dunni, P. hespere, P. hyoprora, P. lansbergii, P. nasutum, P. ophryomegas, P. porrasi, P. yucatanicum, P. volcanicum. Taxa are still in flux; the rare P. volcanicum was recently discovered in Costa Rica and others have been newly recognized as species in their own right (P. arcosae, P. porrasi) rather than subspecies (Lamar and Sasa 2003; Valencia et al. 2010). Porthidium arcosae is sometimes considered a subspecies of P. lansbergii, and the future promises further taxonomic redefinitions of this genus since many researchers recognize that P. nasutum and P. lansbergii may not be distinctly individual species but rather species complexes in need of further taxonomic attention (Campbell and Lamar 2004; Castoe et al. 2005). Recent molecular phylogenetic analyses find two discrete lineages within the genus: an "arid-adapted" lineage including P. ophryomegas, P. dunni, and P. hespere separate from the other species which form a lineage of moist and lowland forest-dwellers (Bryson et al. 2008; Jadin et al. 2011; Valencia et al. 2010; Castoe et al. 2005). Molecular analyses show a pattern of species dispersal back and forth between South and Central America. Molecular clock estimates of divergences suggest Porthidium initially colonized South America after the emergence of the Panamanian isthmus, unlike the pitviper genus Bothrops, which occupied South America before the isthmus arose, and may have prevented further colonization and radiation by later arriving Porthidium (Castoe et al. 2005 and references cited therein; Wüster et al. 2002).

Porthidium is a genus of venomous pitvipers found in Mexico and southward to northern South America.[1] The name is derived from the Greek word portheo and the suffix -idus, which mean "destroy" and "having the nature of", apparently a reference to the venom.[2] Seven species are currently recognized.[3] The snakes of the genus Hypnale in southern India and Sri Lanka look quite similar to those of this genus, possibly an example of convergent evolution.
This is a group of small species, adults ranging in size from 55 centimetres (22 in) (P. dunni and P. yucatanicum) to 75 centimetres (30 in) in total length (P. lansbergii and P. ophryomegas). In addition, the body shape ranges from relatively slender (P. ophryomegas) to relatively stout (P. nasutum). All have a sharply defined canthus rostralis and a rostral scale that is higher than it is broad. The tip of the snout may be slightly to moderately elevated (P. hespere, P. lansbergii, P. ophryomegas and P. volcanicum), strongly elevated (P. dunni and P. yucatanicum), or not elevated at all.[2] All species have a color pattern that usually consists of a brown or gray ground color, overlaid with a series of dark paraventral blotches that are separated by a pale and narrow vertebral stripe. The blotches are square, rectangular, or triangular in shape. In some species, the color pattern is determined by the sex.[2]
Geographic range

This investment should be taken care of in the best way possible so it can serve you for a longer period of time. For example if you are looking for commercial fitness equipments then you need to be careful so that you buy equipments that your customers will like and they should be of different sizes and make.

Buying a quality gym equipment will mean that its value will be maintained over a longer period of time.see other articles from http://www.wikihow.com/Build-a-Low-Cost-Home-Gym
Consult fitness equipment professional or expert
Do you know why consulting a fitness professional is recommended? Despite the fact that you have the finances to buy fitness equipment does mean that you come and start doing the fitness by your own. This is very risky because it may affect you in one way or the other especially if you were sick or if you have problems with your heart. A fitness professional will assist you in knowing the way you should do exercises and also train you on how you should do them to avoid injuries.
Consider your space before buying your fitness equipment

If you are buying the fitness equipments and the Gym for commercial purpose, ensure that you balance those of the male and those of the female so that they can get to enjoy while they are lifting the weights and doing the exercises.

My Awsome book idea!
Ok, Title: Private timmy turtles quest to defeat the neo nazi gekos.
Ok Timmy turtle joins the national turtle army to stop the neo nazi gekos lead by Gekocon zool (<--- Bad guy. =P)
Ok first page... He gets laid, Yeah hot turtle on turtle action (Going away to war type thing)
Second page... He gets killed and gutted by the neo nazi gekos but the story gos on with out him becuase Timmy would want it like that damnit!
Well havent realy got past that... but I'll make the cover look like a kids book to horrify little children and motheres who don't check books before they buy them.
O There will be cookies and a jedi...
Now If I could only remember where I left my motivation...
Sounds like a great book. It can be in the children's section once we destroy the censorship board and their over-protectiveness. I could go into a huge rant about the censorship board, but for simplicity's sake, I'll make a play script.
Child: *Plays barnie game when he/she is 14*
The Child has been protected from violence and nudity their entire life. This is the year 2012 and se*ual education isn't allowed to be taught in schools anymore.
*Child turns 18*
Censorship Board: You've turned 18, here you go, you can buy guns, games with a lot of blood and se*. Have fun with all the world's temptations and go to the local shop and buy a gun while you're at it. Also, you'll have fun with GTA 10, you get to kill lots of people and cops.
*Child plays game, decides to buy a gun, goes kill people*
Censorship Board: See, Barnie was way too violent for them, we should ban that too.
There's one of the major problems with American Society, they safeguard children and then they just let them go do what ever. If you've never played something with violence and you suddenly jump into a game with a lot of gore, of course it may not end well. They give no legal way for children to build tolerance. The Japanese have it right. There will always be people who can't handle things. If one person ends up shooting someone from a game are you going to take it away even if the other thousands of player are absolutely fine? Now let me ask you this, if a prescription drug gives 4-5 people health problems, are you going to take it off the shelves even though it's healing several thousands? (Gasp! Rhetorical Question).
Sorry, but I just had to add, another one that I notice a lot here in the U.S. (I definitely didn't notice a lot in Brasil, I guarantee you, so don't go saying it's everywhere), people say all the time "Learn from others mistakes", five minutes later they make the absolute same mistake. Honestly, it makes me want to strangle them. My dad always says "Do what I say, not what I do". Now, if you're like me, you've probably talked back saying something among the lines of "Why should I do something you say when you don't do it yourself?", my dad always comes up with excuses. Now every time he says that, I don't even say a word, I just think to myself "Bullsh**".
Sorry for the rant, the first 2 sentences of the post are related though ;)
I agree with you 100% Petro. Who are they to tell us what we can and cannot watch and play What we can and cannot do or say on TV/Games.
Kumatora Sorry if it's in the wrong place. =S I just put it here because its just my random thoughts. =P Move it if you must.
Moved to literature :).
Is this serious?
No, I'm genuinely bewildered. This was posted in Random before, so... Either I'm severely immune to intellectual sarcasm or this was indeed... random. >_<

Michael J. Morris, 82, of Amarillo died Friday, June 19, 2009.
Services will be at 2 p.m. Monday in First Baptist Church with Dr. Howard Batson, pastor, officiating. Arrangements are by Brooks Funeral Directors of Canyon.
Michael was born March 31, 1927, to Jim and Mary Morris in Warren, Ohio. For his mother's respiratory health reasons, his family was moving to Arizona for the drier climate in August 1941. His mother became too sick to travel, so they got off the train at the next stop at midnight. That stop was Amarillo. They stayed their first night at the Capitol Hotel. His mother's health improved dramatically, so the decision was to stay in Amarillo.
While attending Amarillo High School, Michael worked setting pins in a bowling alley, had a downtown paper route, was a soda jerk at Kirk's Drug store and cleaned typewriters at Russell Stationery. Like the rest of his contemporaries, he volunteered for military service upon his 17th birthday. Enlisting in the Navy in 1945, he served in the Philippine Islands until the end of World War II.
Upon returning to Amarillo after the war, Michael found work with Santa Fe Railway, serving as a fireman on the legendary Madame Queen steam locomotive. The old locomotive is still on display today.
In 1947, the family moved to Canyon, and Michael left the railroad to work in the family dry goods business. From 1948 to 1962, he was a representative for the family dry goods store, traveling the Texas and Oklahoma panhandles plus eastern New Mexico.
Michael married Martha Morgan in December 1951. Together they had six children, Bynum, David, Elizabeth, Angela, Richard and Douglas.
Michael opened and operated a successful insurance agency in Canyon from 1962 to 1992. In his words, it was a great time in a wonderful town. The Morris family attended St. George's Episcopal Church. One of his many contributions to the community was to initiate the program to put out the American flag on holidays. The Junior Chamber of Commerce has maintained the program to this day. Upon retirement in 1992, he returned to Amarillo.
Martha, his wife of 49 years, passed away in July 2001. He married Marlene Knapp in February 2003.
He also was preceded in death by a daughter, Elizabeth.
Survivors include five children, Bynum of Canyon; Angela and husband John of Midland; David and wife Tammye, Douglas and wife Dina, and Richard, all of Amarillo. He was blessed by five grandchildren, Jennifer, Christopher, Noelle, James and Ian; and four great-grandchildren. Survivors also include two stepsons, Jay Knapp and wife Mickie and Jerry Knapp and wife Peggy, all of Amarillo; a stepdaughter, Kim McAtee and husband David of Denver; eight stepgrandchildren; three stepgreat-grandchildren; a brother, Daniel Morris of Amarillo; a sister, Rose Pearson and husband Bill of Fort Worth; an uncle, John Robert Morgan of El Paso; and a cousin, Rosalie Humenanski of Warren, Ohio.
The family suggests memorials be to Lone Star Ballet, 3218 Hobbs Road, Amarillo, TX 79109; or First Baptist Church, 1208 S. Tyler St., Amarillo, TX 79101.
A reception will be in the church welcome center immediately after services.

Great dealership with friendly sales people.
Midway Motors of Hutchinson
1200 East 30th Avenue, Hutchinson, KS 67502
A very good experience overall. I contacted them via internet and Mike Mims called me the next day. I knew the vehicle I wanted and Mike and Paul Gonzales made sure I purchased the vehicle I wanted. I had given Mike all my information and Saturday when I arrived, he had the vehicle ready to go for a test drive. I test drove it and signed the papers. I was in and out in under 40 minutes. Top notch. Will buy my next vehicle from them again.
Quality Excellent

Energy Tip #20: Lint be gone
Sometimes in life, if you try to dress up something that just isn't "all that," you end up fooling nobody. So this week's tip — straighten and clean the air ducts on your dryer — isn't going to get sexified. Maybe straightening and cleaning your air ducts seems like a hassle, but sometimes small, inconvenient steps can have a measurable impact. This is one of those times.
You should clean your clothes dryer ducts twice a year. The dryer is one of the most energy-intensive appliances in your house, and clogged ducts cause it to work even harder. You'll need some specialized equipment for this one:
- Start by removing the ducting from the rear of your dryer and from the wall vent.
- Take the ducting outside to safe area. Make sure you have safety glasses on.
- Insert the nozzle of a pressure washer into the ducting. Hold on to the ducting with one hand and deliver a few short bursts of water. If you don't have a pressure washer you can get most of the way there with a shop style wet/dry vacuum cleaner.
- Let dry and reinstall.
This project, along with cleaning out the lint on in your dryer's filter, will help you save at least $3/month. In addition, you will be saving roughly 200 lbs of carbon. So clean your air filter, have a Happy Thanksgiving and we'll be back with more tips next week.
Last week 69 people pledged to regulate their home temperature by adjusting or installing a thermostat (Tip #19). At about 4,113 lbs of CO2 per pledge, we can anticipate a reduction of roughly 283,728 pounds of CO2.

Rash on vagina, thrush or something more serious?
Q: Hi there, there was 2 red spots around the opening of my vagina about a week ago. They wernt sore at all but for a while I had very thick, sometimes stringy white discharge. The skin was sort of dry between my anus and vagina. I put moisturiser on it and it helped quite a bit. I got my period 2 days ago then yesterday I got a rash around the opening and anus. It isn't itchy but is a bit sore to touch, it's like ire you get around your mouth if you keep licking your lips. I'm not sure if it is thrush or something more serious. I'm quite scared to go to the doctor just incase, so I thought I'd try asking here first, please help ):
A: There is a possibility that the itching could be caused by vaginal thrush. Usually the discharge seen in vaginal thrush is whitish in color and is accompanied by intense pruritus leading to redness and inflammation in the area. You may need an antifungal medication like fluconazole which is available both as an ointment and an oral medication. If your symptoms do not resolve with this treatment, then you may need see your doctor/gynecologist. A swab test may be done to identify the organism. treatment will depend on the cause. I would advise you not to use any other creams, tampons or deodorants in the affected area.

• Biliary obstruction of 14 and 28 days induced in the rat an increase of portal pressure (PP) and wedge hepatic vein pressure (WHVP); the higher these were, the longer was the obstruction. Occurrence of portal hypertension seemed related to portal and periportal fibrosis. Relief of obstruction after 14 days by bilioduodenal anastomosis brought back to normal PP and WHVP. In rats with longer obstruction periods, bilioduodenal anastomosis failed to lower PP and WHPV although biological signs of cholestasis returned to normal levels. These results suggest that portal hypertension may arise very shortly after biliary obstruction in rats and that it may persist in animals with a prolonged biliary obstruction despite an efficient bile draige. In clinical conditions, such results would favor early treatment of lesions that usually cause prolonged bile duct obstruction, such as postoperative bile duct stenosis.

Although we often try not to judge a book by its cover, when that cover is penciled and inked by artist Adam Hughes, it's hard not to. Back when the covers to the series were first released, BEFORE WATCHMEN: DR. MANHATTAN was immediately one that we were looking forward to. Aside from the fact that Dr. Manhattan is an integral part of the WATCHMEN series, the creative team on this series is also pretty impressive. With Hughes on pencils and inks, J. Michael Straczynski on the script and two gorgeous variant covers by artists Paul Pope and Jim Lee, it's hard to say no to a book like this.
If you're still not convinced whether you should pick up this book or not, perhaps the 8-page preview and two additional inked pages below will help you decide if it's a series you want to invest in. The story opens with a look back on Dr. Manhattan's childhood and adolescence. We see several scenes of him as a child in this issue, something we missed in the original WATCHMEN books. Hughes captures the essence of life in that era brilliantly, and he proves that he's not just good at drawing beautiful women -- he succeeds in setting a scene. After a 15 year hiatus from illustrating interiors, Adam Hughes is back, and it seems to have been well worth the wait.
The BEFORE WATCHMEN titles have been hitting store shelves gradually, and this week it's finally time to check out DR. MANHATTAN's series. Will you be picking it up? The series' first issue will be made available this Wednesday, August 22nd 2012.== TEASER ==
