Wow, I was pretty amazed to hear that the WHATWG (the group leading the HTML5 charge) has decided to drop the "5" in the name and just call it HTML from now on—on the grounds that it's really a "living" and evolving standard that shouldn't be pinned down with a version number.
SitePoint has already blogged on this, but I thought it would be fun to continue the discussion here, if any one cares to.
At first, I was shocked by the news (which came a day or so after the W3C unveiled its shiny new HTML5 logo!). But after some consideration, I'm starting to think it does make a bit of sense … though it will make life difficult in that it will now be harder to identify what's new in HTML without a buzzword … unless we'll just keep the buzzword anyway (but it won't be quite the same). I won't repeat all the arguments that others have already put, though. Here are a few I've read, such as:
Ian Hickson's announcement and people's commentsJeremy Keith's takeZeldman's take
It wasn't really a decision. It is meaningless for HTML to have a version number and I would argue this is the way it's always been. Tying HTML to a number never made any sense.
edit: Also, it won't be difficult to identify HTML5, because HTML is simply HTML. Whatever version of HTML is being implemented is what the term "HTML" refers to. That's all there is. It's the only option anyone has. You couldn't opt to use HTML4 over the current standard of HTML even if you wanted to.
Yep, I'm inclined to agree with you. The new doctype kind of made this inevitable, I guess (as people say in the links I posted):
<!DOCTYPE html>
With a doctype like that, the version number does seem a bit out of place.
I've officially renamed it "Fred".
I wasn't surprised it has been obvious for several years it was probably going to be the last version but it won't matter now because anything proprietary you write will be 100% correct.
A stupid move just to get attention.
Of course HTML is and will be HTML. Those 3.2, 4.01, 5 where put there to differentiate details about it. We are all humans. Should we lose names and called one another: "Hey, Human, the Human leaving on the Street in the City said the Human on the Street in the City met with the Human on the Street in the City and then together they met with Human on the Street in the City and then go to the Street in the City". Go figure Human
Yeah, UAs don't care. But I, Human, care
The Web Standards Project has spoken (see left column, under "On a related matter...")
"...we stand by our sentiment that the final (as in W3C) version of HTML5 should continue having a version number while the version-less WHATWG version is used for continuing development."
But I would like to communicate that my site uses some features only implemented in HTML7, without having to worry about having fallbacks for older browsers like Firefox 6 that aren't aware of the new standards. How will the browser know if it meets the minimum requirements if there is no way for the site to declare them?
This wouldn't be an issue if everyone kept their browser updated and all the browsers met standards and held backward compatibility, but this is the real world!
As a standard that never really throws anything away, I wonder if, for certain applications, HTML has outlived it's usefulness.
The web applications we build tomorrow look to contain fairly sophisticated graphical effects and the like, but I'm wondering how much processing time is wasted by the browser trying to allow for all sorts of markup.
I mean, nothing ever goes away in HTML, and the browsers that have the worst mistakes in their history - the IE family - has been plagued with the effects of shedding off options never part of the standard. But the standard itself has had trouble shedding off things that were a bad idea or have been eclipsed, such as the layout tags <center><font> et al, or the frameset tags.
In the end we have 6 core machines just barely providing better performance than machines from 12 years ago to a degree because of the outright crap the browsers must sort through to get to valid code.
And the problem is compounded by the fact that when a site fails to display most users blame the browser (if they are aware of what a browser is). This dates back to the first web war between Netscape and Microsoft. Every browser wants to be the hero - reading through the code and bending over backwards to try to resolve and execute at least some of the bad code.
XHMTL was supposed to fix this with a stricter syntax, but Microsoft's failure to implement it correctly stillbirthed it and made it a joke.
HTML is with us and will be here to stay for a long while, but I can't help but wonder if it should be left behind by professionals in favor of a stricter markup language that has an emphasis on the speed by which the browser can parse it - the result being driven by two factors. First, version numbering that means something - and major version numbers of the standard have NO obligation to be backwards compatible so that there is a mechanic to remove bad ideas from the standard (Cause face it, in 20 years someone is still going to be putting <center> tags in the webpage).
This would unlock a lot of processing power wasted on HTML's shortcomings, ambiguity and bloated state that is, frankly, NEVER going away. Maybe its snobbish of me to say so, but HTML should be left to the amateurs who dabble on the web and professionals whose livelihood depends on accurate and faster results should get a markup language that delivers that speed. Similar enough to HTML not to be a pain to learn, but unforgiving in its parsing such that if you don't close a tag that should be closed, you don't get a page, and so on.
The world needs both. I wouldn't have learned what I have if HTML was unforgiving and difficult to use. But I have progressed beyond such childish coddling and now it's getting in my way. I'd love to have a markup language that doesn't display until it's valid. I'd love to have a scripting language that allows me to set a variable's datatype as needed and which doesn't contain legacy calls to support half a dozen technologies no one uses anymore.
At some point I think the legacy garbage in HTML is going to stifle it's growth to the point where this divorce between amateur markup and professional markup will be forced.
As for the drop of version number of HTML, this is VERY dangerous. It is a return to the situation as it was in 1996. If HTML doesn't have a version number then people will begin to code to browsers again. With no milestones version numbers to mark features that can be expected to be found across multiple browsers, we will see a return to the days of "Site best viewed in [insert web page owner's pet browser here.]"
While browser implementation of standard versions has never been perfect, it gave you a ballpark estimate of which browsers would run the page. Without the version number it becomes a blind guess.
It isn't that they failed to implement it correctly but rather that they left it to IE9 to implement it. Once IE8 and earlier drop to a small enough percentage of users then using XHTML properly will finally become a practical alternative. Since this will happen long before the new standard for HTML is finished it will mean that by the time all the new mess with HTML finally eventuates with an actual standard that few will still be using it.
As I said, stillborn.
How does 'stillborn' define something that all the latest versions will support at the end of this year (or whenever it is that IE9 is released).
Once you can ignore IE8 and earlier and rely on your visitors using Firefox, Safari, Chrome, Opera, or IE9+ then you can use XHTML properly.
It shouldn't take too many years for IE8 to disappear. Certainly far fewer years than it will take for the new version of HTML to become an actual standard.
Or are you suggesting that this will result in the new HTML being stillborn because everyone will have switched to XHTML?
It does not matter whether it is HTML5 or simply HTML. The working remains the same.
But just calling it HTML or HTML5 and posting the specs isn't enough for it to "work". Browser makers have to implement it. Some argue that not having a definitive version to work towards may give browser makers an excuse not to bother adding "HTML5" features, as the browser makers can say "sure, we support HTML already". I don't know if that will really happen, though, but I can see their point.
The name of this new technology could have quite an impact on its future.
With no milestones version numbers to mark features that can be expected to be found across multiple browsers, we will see a return to the days of "Site best viewed in [insert web page owner's pet browser here.]"
CSS3 has already created this need. "Best viewed in Chrome" is one I've seen in multiple places, just not on a badge.
If IE9 isn't going to get ported to Windows XP, you have a good 10 year wait for IE8 to die.
Wow, I'm surprised too.
HTML5 is quite well known in the public already, perhaps from things like Steve Jobs using it to defend Apple's position against flash on the iPad / iPhone.Having such a well known name I don't know why they think it's a good idea to remove it.
I'm with BlackMax - The spec formerly known as HTML5 is now Fred.
Now that you've mentioned Apple, couldn't we at least go for something like Leopard / Snow Leopard etc? OK, cats are done, so what about dogs? How about HTML5 be Labrador, and the next version Greyhound … or maybe Dachshund, Chihuahua, or even Poodle …
Psh, they're just copying Ubuntu's crazy names, lawlz. Yeah, I'm still on Karmic Koala. Have to upgrade to Lucid Lynx soon.
That was part of the problem. Jobs pointed to some CSS3 sites and called them "HTML5" which started the whole "everything that's new and cool on the front-end is HTML5" which elicited [Bruce's awesome rant among other things. ([url=http://www.brucelawson.co.uk/2010/meet-newt-new-exciting-web-technologies/]NEWT](http://www.brucelawson.co.uk/2010/rant-html5-css-3/))
Every time someone writes some Javascript on a page with a <!doctype html> at the top is getting called "HTML5". Though I don't see why the name couldn't still apply to markup.
I found that the version of HTML supported by my Firefox 3.6.13 is HTML5.
In some ways this is where XML/XSL had it right, it let the developer at hand define what they wanted on a per-page basis so browser support of specific tags is irrelevant, of course it's far from practical in the real world and I also feel XHTML was a healthy middle ground.
Couldn't agree more. Sure removing the version from the current standard makes sense if it's going to be the last version. What about in a few years when there is need for new features? How will we as developers be able to use them? Browser sniffing? It all seems a bit messy to me.

After Arsenal's 1-1 draw with Fulham on Saturday, we asked fans to share their thoughts on the game via Twitter.
Many of you got in touch and below is a selection of the fans' thoughts.
If you don't already follow us on Twitter and want to have your say, you can find us here: @Arsenal
@karuna26 - Disappointed with the result. However, we showed team spirit, fight and passion to draw the game.
@Mystic424 - Though we drew, you could see an improved will for the fight. Encouraging stuff.
@ArsenalFCTexas - Impressed by Djourou at RB - he changed my opinion. Glad Diaby is back, he adds another dimension.
@SuperSwe - Djourou had a very good game! Gervinho also did well when he came on.
@ILoveTheArsenal - Santos played really well tonight, so did Theo and Djourou.
@TomScott1 - Theo Walcott - quality ball, quality player.
@LadyDMash - Theo is really producing some quality crosses at the moment, he's really impressing me.
@PRESIDENTMUGABE - Disappointed with the Arsenal result but as Wenger says, the unbeaten run keeps going which is good.
@peter_mushangwe - I was impressed by all our subs today. Chamalkh looked sharper, Diaby was in control, Gervinho had an impact.
@GurjitAFC We are going to miss Gervinho throughout January. He made a big impact when he came on. He's always a threat with his pace & directness.

I have been having trouble with one particular command of a do-file which simply has me miffed. The line "save "`output'/`country'`congress'novotes=naysfinal.dta", replace" simply attempts to save a file into a folder that I created. Stata stops at this point and returns the r(603) error, saying that the file cannot be opened.

Is Hacking training doing us wrong?
I've been thinking back over where I have come from in the past few years. No doubt I have learned a lot. And I can apply some of that knowledge. But I was thinking today, does IT Sec training really prepare us for the challenges we face?
I am a CEH. I am supposed to know the tools, techniques, and tactics that a hacker uses to compromise a network. A year ago I would have told you that I probably had a good idea about something like that. But I am thinking, in an age of Advanced Persistent Threats, with "cyberwar" on the horizon, how has my training prepared me for that?
I know that an attacker will try to hide their location before they perpetrate their attack. From just general knowledge I know of some of the techniques, like tor or tunneling. But none of my training mentioned this. Had I not tried tor for myself I would have no idea how it is used, its limitations, i've done a little research on how to tunnel traffic through tor, but I dont think I could use it effectively.
I know that attacks are often traced back to perpetrators, possibly across the world, through multiple computer systems or networks, but I dont know how. It goes on through all the phases of the hacking process i suppose, I know about trojans, maybe I can download one, run it through a program to change its signature (fuzzing right?) but this knowledge comes in piecemeal, over time.
Honestly, i guess im a little frustrated. I know there are a lot of people with a lot more knowledge, skills, and experience than me. How does one get to that level? How do you get to that place where you can sit there and right a report where you can say, "this is what happened, and this is how they did it, and this is how you can prevent it."?
Am I alone in this?

Opponents of a controversial $143 million plan to rework the Larkspur-Corte Madera stretch of Highway 101 have moved beyond criticism — they've stepped forward with their own design.
"I don't expect them to say, 'Oh yeah that's it, it's great,'" said Corte Madera resident Steve Cardellini. "I think it's going to be hard for them to admit a group of average citizens came up with a better plan."
The 20-member group, Marin Deserves Better, has been meeting since March to develop a scheme it believes will be more acceptable to the public than the plan put forward by Caltrans and the Transportation Authority of Marin.
The group's plan eliminates a 33-foot-tall southbound flyover and northbound retaining wall that project opponents said was too massive. It also retains the Greenbrae pedestrian overcrossing that was slated for removal.
Corte Madera resident Jana Haehl, the group's leader, said Marin Deserves Better will present its plan Monday to the Transportation Authority of Marin working group, which is tasked with exploring options to the Greenbrae interchange project. The working group started meeting in March after multiple public meetings revealed heavy community opposition to the proposed plan.
Haehl said she felt challenged to come up with a more acceptable design for the highway.
"I had been attending all of the various stakeholder meetings, and I noticed that certain people were following the project issue as closely as I was," Haehl said. "I invited them to start coming to meetings."
Other group members include Cheryl Longinotti, Cindy Winter, David Schnapf, Eric Miller, Jean Rieke, Jean Severinghaus, Jim Robinson, John Robbins, Julie Kritzberger, Michael Hooper, Noah Kennedy, Peter Chase, Sebastyen Jackovics, Sherrie Vigneron, Stan Hoffman, Tom Jackovics, Corte Madera Mayor Diane Furst and Corte Madera Councilman Bob Ravasio.
Key features of the group's plan include adding a southbound lane to the Greenbrae offramp for East Sir Francis Drake Boulevard, adding a northbound land bridge that would link the Industrial Way onramp to Highway 101 and adding auxiliary lanes between Corte Madera Creek and Tamalpais Drive to both directions.
Cardellini helped develop the citizen plan by designing a "loop" alternative that would change how traffic traveling east on Sir Francis Drake Boulevard would get onto Highway 101 south. Instead of taking the existing onramp, traffic would travel in a new left lane of Sir Francis Drake Boulevard headed east toward Larkspur Landing. That lane would pass under the ramp carrying westbound Sir Francis Drake Boulevard traffic to Highway 101 south, then loop to the left and become a new lane added to the east edge of the Corte Madera Creek overpass. From there, that lane would cross the creek and merge into the fourth lane of Highway 101 south.
"I think we were very successful in solving the weaving and merging problems there without changing the look of the landscape at all," Cardellini said.
Fellow loop designer Michael Hooper, of Larkspur, agreed.
"The beauty of the loop is its simplicity. It gets southbound traffic from Sir Francis Drake on the freeway without crossing traffic headed to Lucky Drive," Hooper said.
The Marin Deserves Better plan has bicycle and pedestrian components that include new bus stops, two undercrossings on Wornum Drive and completion of the 25-mile-long North-South Greenway from the Sandra Marker Trail to the Cal Park Hill Tunnel.
Corte Madera resident Cheryl Longinotti said the group has created a network that will help existing bicyclists and pedestrians travel, while encouraging others to try it.
"We know the funding for this project is primarily to reduce congestion near the bridges, so we were looking at ways to encourage people to bike and walk," Longinotti said.
She said the bicycle and pedestrian plan also includes a second phase where the group recommends special attention be paid to the Tamalpais overpass and connecting Larkspur to Corte Madera.
"A final part of our plan is to suggest a multi-user path and crossing be placed toward Tamalpais to connect the two shopping centers," Longinotti said.
In addition to the Marin Deserves Better plan, a dozen other designs developed by the public will be on display at Monday's meeting. The working group will discuss seven proposed highway and roadway improvement projects. The remaining bicycle and pedestrian plans will be discussed at a June 24 meeting.
Haehl said she doesn't think any decisions will be made at either of the June meetings.
"I expect around the first August working group meeting, they'll start trying to reach consensus about what they want to do next," Haehl said. At that point, the working group will have a little more than a month to make its recommendations to the Transportation Authority of Marin. The Metropolitan Transportation Commission has said the authority needs to propose by Sept 30 how it wants to spend the available funds.
Dianne Steinhauser, Transportation Authority of Marin executive director, said it's unclear whether the funds will be taken away after that date.
"The Metropolitan Transportation Commission has stated they reserve the right to redirect funds, but a final determination on that has not been made," Steinhauser said.

highway plan presentations
The Transportation Authority of Marin working group will hold a preview and meeting about proposed public options for the Larkspur-Corte Madera stretch of Highway 101 at 4 p.m. Monday at the San Rafael Corporate Center, 750 Lindaro St.

APTOS -- When he was in elementary school, Dana Hausman's teachers sent him home because they thought he had strep throat.
His mother, who worked in an emergency room, knew better. That wasn't strep throat, that was just the voice he inherited from his grandfather peeking through -- a very, very deep voice.
On Friday, after years of people telling him he should put his Barry White-esque vocal cords to good use, Hausman, a pharmacy technician at the Aptos Rite Aid, finally took the plunge. In front of four celebrity judges and with the eyes of more than 75 candidates on his back, Hausman auditioned to be the Santa Cruz Warriors public address announcer.
"Lots of people tell me I should do something related to voice work," said Hausman, 29, of La Selva Beach. "I saw my opportunity here, so I decided to spring upon it."
As the other contestants nervously pored over their scripts, Hausman stepped to the center of the Aptos High gym and took his seat at center court at an isolated table. It was positioned in front of a panel of judges that included Santa Cruz Warriors player Daniel Nwaelele, Santa Cruz Vice Mayor Hilary Bryant, Danny Keith, the executive director of Grind Out Hunger, and radio personality Jim Pearson from 92.7 KTOM's The Jim Show.
As if the scene wasn't intimidating enough, the script included several phrases that could trip up even the most silver-tongued salesman. Try saying "Nate Bjorkgren assisted by Vitaly Potapenko" while trying to avoid microphone feedback. It wasn't easy.
"The words aren't the hard part. I had a stutter when I was a kid, so I had to work through that," Hausman said. "My thing was being in the middle of the spotlight."
Hausman's sweet and low voice didn't fail him, though. He read the script flawlessly and scored just the second perfect 10 of the night, along with three 9s, from the judges. It was enough to land him in the top five, who will be called back for a Dec. 16 audition in front of season ticket holders, Santa Warriors brass and Golden State Warriors adviser Jerry West. The winner will be named at that event and his or her first task will be to reveal the new Development League basketball team's mascot.
"It's not always easy to go up and rock the mic," Keith said. "I bet some people checked off their bucket list tonight."
Scott Goodrich, a Santa Cruz mortgage broker by day and a PA announcer for his 12-year-old's football team on the weekends, was one of them. And he understood Hausman's stage fright.
"It's kind of like jumping out of a plane. You're really putting yourself on the line,"said Goodrich, who received an 8 and three 7s. "You never know what's going to happen. You just hope the parachute is going to open."
Kim Luke loved every second of the rush.
Luke, 48, has spent the past three years as the Santa Cruz Derby Girls announcer. She was one of just two women who auditioned and she made an impression similar to her derby name, Mildred Fierce. She dressed in her Derby Girls jacket and black pigtails and threw in a few local references, giving the judges the local flare they said they were looking for. The result? She pulled down two 10s -- the only person to get a pair -- and matched them with two 9s. She also advanced to the final along with Salinas High PA announcer Brian Day, Santa Cruz resident Jordan Ciliberto, who serves on the board of directors of the nonprofit Community Bridges, and Emil Diazon, who has been announcing at high schools and colleges for the past 20 years.
After finishing her script reading with a riffed rallying cry, Luke soaked up the applause as the judges revealed their scorecards.
"I felt like I was in the Olympics of talking," she said, "and I was winning."

Our production deadlines have me drafting this column prior to the outcome of the 2012 elections. Regardless of how the races turn out, the promises made, the twisting of the facts, the compelling arguments, the money spent and how you chose to vote, one thing is for sure it's clear we've got much to do in the way of the people's business and no time to waste rolling up our sleeves getting down to work.
Top on the list, regardless of the outcome of the Presidential election, it appears that 163 million American workers can expect a big increase in the taxes taken out of their paychecks come January. The temporary reduction in Social Security payroll taxes is due to expire at the end of 2012. Neither the Obama nor the Romney camps proposed an extension, both steering clear of any blame for increased taxes come 2013. Neither party feels the payroll tax holiday, put in place two years ago that was intended to be a temporary shot in the arm for the economy, has done much to stimulate the sluggish economy.
Providing cover for the Social Security reduction is the bigger question surrounding the future of the Bush-Era tax cuts which also expire at the end of 2012. Couple that with the pending sequestration due to take effect in 2013 and it's clear that the government can no longer sugar coat the medicine. We must face and accept the reality of our financial crisis very soon. At the end of the day it's time to suck it up and deal with these issues. On the fairy tale campaign trail politicians can always find creative ways to avoid answering the tough issues, and twist the truth as to who to blame, but once the election dust settles those left standing really should have no choice but to address these issues.

A buddy brought me back some florida honey this week and i couldn't wait to dive in.
He brought orange blossom, palmetto, tupelo, blueberry, and Florida wild flower.
What is Palmetto and Tupelo?
They are very nice.
The blueberry is very dark and has a serious blueberry taste to it. Is that normal to be very dark and almost artifical blueberryish tasting, or did someone maybe.... by accident add some flavour?
Is it possible to have a lite colored blueberry honey?
We don't have large fields locally so i've never tryed it before.

Science and Pre-Med Courses to Take Prior to the MCAT Exam
Core Courses
The faculty have complied a list of core courses that to our knowledge meet the core admission requirements to most professional health sciences programs/schools. This is a good start if you know that you want to work in the professional health sciences but you are not yet sure exactly what you want to do. Each specialty or discipline may require more course work in specific areas. For information regarding each specific discipline see the links at the bottom of the page (coming soon).
*IMPORTANT!* This information is provided for your convenience and should not be substituded for face-to-face academic advising by a natural sciences division faculty member. It is never too early to make an advising appointment to talk over your course plan and options if you are considering a career in the professional health sciences
General Education
Do not forget your UIS general education requirements! These are an important part of your education and preparation for a career in the health sciences. Professional schools prefer to admit students who have a broad educational base including ability to write and communicate intelligently and knowledge of art, culture, and history. UIS's goal of providing a top-shelf liberal arts education to all our graduates will help you if you take advantage of it! These courses might seem to have nothing to do with becoming a health science professional but your performance in them will affect the quality of the schools/programs that you are admitted to.
Math is at the top of this list because it is important for you to know that a career in medicine or any professional health science involves math. There is no way around it. You must be proficient in trigonometry and algebra. Understanding calculus will give you an advantage. Calculus is also a pre-requisite for physics here at UIS.
The math requirements for admission to professional schools vary. Almost all require algebra and trigonometry. Many, including all the best schools, require one semester of calculus. The faculty at UIS strongly advises that pre-professional students complete at least one semester of college calculus in their Freshmen or Sophomore year. The UIS course that meets this requirement is:

Chemistry is an important basis of most professional health science. Nearly every professional program requires two semesters of introductory chemistry and two semesters of organic chemistry, both with laboratory. Students should take introductory chemistry as a freshman or sophomore. Organic chemistry is a more challenging and time consuming class that should be taken after introductory chemistry. The faculty suggest that you take organic chemistry with lab in either your sophomore or junior year. Note that most professional schools require lab experience with organic chemistry so it is important to register for those sections that include a lab. Also note that CAP 141/241 is not an acceptable substitute for CHE 141/142. You will also need to take some Biochemistry as that will be on the MCAT beginning in 2015. That can be accomplished by taking CHE 415 and 416 (Biochemistry I and II) or CHE 433 (Physiological Chemistry).

The current MCAT emphasizes Biochemistry. Taking at least the first semester of biochemistry without lab is a very good idea. Taking the lab is recommended. Organic Chemistry is a pre-requisite for taking Biochemistry at UIS. Many students will find the first semester of Physical Chemistry (CHE 401) helpful if they want to explore biochemistry past the first semester. We also offer second semester biochemistry and a variety of related biochemistry courses at the 400-level. These courses are best pursued as a junior or senior.

Obviously biology is important subject to the health sciences. While specific disciplines have more specific admission requirements the common denominator between all of them is an introductory biology course with lab. The faculty suggests that students should take this course as freshmen or sophomores so that they can take more advanced biology courses as upper-classmen as needed. As with chemistry, it is important that students take these courses with the lab component.

|Unity of Living Organisms

At least one semester of Physics is required for admission to professional schools in the health sciences. Most schools and programs will require applicants to have had two semesters of physics with lab. Competitive professional health science programs often want to see their applicants have a good grade in physics and may use it as litmus test for admitting students. If you take your physics class somewhere other than UIS while you are enrolled here you may be asked to explain that on your application or you might not be asked and the school you are applying to will assume the worst.
Many pre-professional students struggle with physics. It will introduce you to a mode of problem solving that is different the normal mode used in chemistry or biology. That is why you are being required to take it. Along with mathematics, this is a subject that you might not think of right away when you think about a career in the health sciences but it is important to those fields. As with your chemistry and biology courses, you need to take it seriously and do your best.
Calculus (MAT 115) is a pre-requisite to take Physics at UIS. It is suggested that you take physics as a sophomore or a junior.

Social and Behavioral Sciences
The MCAT is changing in 2015 to include a section on social and behavioral sciences. To be prepared for this new material you should plan to take PSY 201 Principles of Psychology and SOA 101 Introduction to Sociology to meet 6 of your 9 required hours of social sciences general education courses.
The additional disciplines represented on MCAT exam:
- Physiology
- Anatomy
- Cell/Molecular Biology
- Microbiology
- Genetics
- Histology and other specialty biology courses
Coming soon!

This one is a 1980, in Indiana Red. And it hasn't been driven in 15 years. The inspection sticker on the windshield is from 1993, and the license plate expired in 1995.
The good:
-Very little rust, despite being from Pennsylvania
-Paint is pretty shiny
-Interior is very nice
-It was stored indoors (in an airplane hangar) since it was last used in the mid 90s
The bad:
-Automatic transmission
-A mouse chewed at the wiring, and the PO didn't quite finish fixing it
-A/C compressor is locked up (not really a big deal, but this list looked kinda short without it)
-Dash was replaced with one from a Mk2. However, if I can find a suitable Mk1 dash, I'll have another decent dash for one of my Mk2s.
And so, on with the pics! These are from after I washed 15 years of dust off of it this morning.
The worst of the rust:
I put a battery in it this morning so I could see what works and what doesn't.
What works:
-Interior light
-Blower motor
-Turn signals
-Front wiper
What doesn't work:
-Rear lights
-Fuel pump
Also, I found a jumper wire going to the radiator fan, so I suspect that the fan switch is bad. I'll have to check that out later. Gotta get it running first.

I don't know if it is cost. Two me it is easier to shoot a staple in then fiddle with that eyelet. What difference does it make why someone uses a staple? It is their choice. I just mentioned it as an option.
If I were to build an automatic machine to make frames I would use a staple.

Great news that there is going to be a royal baby, but in times of great austerity measures it isnt going to make any difference to anyones lives.
This marriage will go the distance, kate and wills dated for 8 years before and so I dont see it crumbling like Diana and Charles.

I'm not crazy about her either. She was just a trashy sort of public drunk during the decade or so she wasted just partying with William. She has done nothing with her life and she's 30. And something stupid always happens when she's around…drunk photos,crotch photos,nude photos in France,her naked butt got photographed in Canada…goes into a hospital and a nurse dies. Acting stupid during official engagements.

In part two of a five-part World Cup series, the Herald looks at dozens of the great All Black moments that have been burned into the memory.
But what's the greatest moment of them all? Is it David Kirk holding up the Webb Ellis Cup following the 1987 final or does the absence of Springboks from the tournament detract from the achievement.
Or has that moment grown in importance and to the top of the list because of disappointments at subsequent World Cups? And what's more memorable - an All Black win at the Cup or a shock defeat. Honourable in the case of the loss to the Springboks in the epic 1995 World Cup final, or shocking in the capitulation to France in 1999?
So the great moments involving the All Blacks aren't always the most enjoyable for their fans.
How about the series wins? Is the greatest All Black moment of all that afternoon in Pretoria in 1996 when Sean Fitzpatrick's side won a series for the first time in South Africa after nearly 70 years of trying? Or was it beating the Springboks here in New Zealand after the country went on to a war footing in 1956?
What about the tries? Does Peter Jones' effort to cap off that series win in 1956 outrank Ian Kirkpatrick scoring one of the greatest forward tries against the Lions in 1971 or is the best Jonah Lomu running over England's Mike Catt - and in doing so helping change the course of rugby. He scored many better tries - his best perhaps against Australia later that year - but are any as memorable as the one that had commentator Keith Quinn gasping for words?
John Kirwan was in stunning form during the 1987 World Cup but what was his best try? The length-of-the-field try against a weak Italy in the opener at a half-full Eden Park or his finishing off a superb team effort to seal victory over France in the final?
The moments of infamy live long in the memory. What's the most deeply-etched? Colin Meads sent off against Scotland in 1967, Keith Murdoch's sending home from the All Blacks after a dust-up at the Angel Hotel in 1972 or the lineout shenanigans against Wales six years later which poured more fuel on to the Welsh-New Zealand feud?
Plenty of questions but the accompanying list offers some answers from the Herald's rugby experts.
1 - All Blacks' first series win against the Springboks on South African soil, 1996.
2 - Winning the inaugural Rugby World Cup 1987, still the only one.
3 - The epic World Cup final in 1995 in South Africa, a loss but on rugby's biggest stage.
4 - The 1978 Grand Slam by Graham Mourie's All Blacks, success at the eighth attempt.
5 - Jonah Lomu running over England's Mike Catt in World Cup semifinal, 1995.
6 - Ian Kirkpatrick swatting off the Lions to score at Lancaster Park in 1971.
7 - Keith Murdoch being sent home from the 1972-73 tour of Britain after a fracas in Cardiff.
8 - Allan Hewson kicking the winner in the flour bomb test against the Boks in 1981.
9 - Peter Jones scoring to seal the first ever series win against the Springboks in 1956.
10 - Lomu (again) scoring against Australia in Sydney in 2000 during an omnipotent display.
Part One - 20 Great All Blacks

Book Review: PYWN
Two notes of caution about this book before delving in. These guys were both Microsoft employees at the time of the writing, so yes you will see some mild MS bias throughout, but they do a good job of reminding you in the text as well. I mean really, who recommends ISA server over a FW appliance like Netscreen, Checkpoint, or ASA, other then a MS employee or a Redmond Kool-aid drinker. Also, while this book contains great nuggets of information, for someone thats been in the security industry awhile, there will be a lot of general IT security information that you can just skim through in the first few chapters. This does not take away from the book in any way, just broadens the target audience some.
One of things I enjoyed most about this book was its readability. You can easily read a chapter a night and finish it quickly, because its interesting and not dry like many books(i.e. Official ISC2 Cissp Guide). Also, the authors revel in giving their brutally honest opinion, even when not always right, but it makes for very good reading. One of the early points they make, which should be known to the masses, is that complete security is unattainable. They used the illustration of chasing unicorns. While only possible in theory, you can only hope to reduce your attack surface and keep your risk at acceptable levels, because security is a dynamic state, not something that can be statically reproduced in reports and stamped with a seal of approval. Anybody that says their network is "secure" doesn't understand that security isn't really a state, but an ongoing process of managing risk. The book also provides, excellent coverage of Windows patching schemes, developing security policies, and educating your users on what not to do. One of the stand out chapters for me, was the security dependency one, which illuminates something that most people don't really address. Services accounts and dependencies on other systems present a very big danger to networks. You in essence reduce your security to that of the least secure system when you allow your critical assets to be dependent on a workstation that has the same service account. Also, often times domain admins will use their account to login to low security systems, thus exposing their credentials. Another great chapter, which I never would have thought reading the title, was the chapter on passwords. It has the most concise and easy to understand discussion of windows authentication schemes that I've ever read. In just a few pages, it discusses the differences between LM, NTLM, NTLMv2, and Kerberos and what configurations are available. The book also includes the requisite hardening guidelines for servers and clients and a very nice chapter on how to evaluate application security in an accurate and reproducible way. The book also comes with CD, the most notable tool being their passgen script.
The only negatives I really noticed in the book, was that they tried to justify not putting outbound filtering on the windows firewall, only to see that feature show up on the Vista version. Also, their discussion of Arp failed to mention hard coding your gateway with a static arp entry, which I thought was odd. Overall though, I would have to say I was mightily impressed with this book and would recommend it to anybody running a windows environment. If interested, you can peruse my notes here .

Abler Minded: Memorial Day
We are a few days away from observing Memorial Day, which is observed every year on the last Monday in May thanks to the National Holiday Act of 1971 ensuring three-day weekends for federal workers and, to my way of thinking, which also served to diminish the stature of all the holidays in favor of providing more recreational opportunities for federal workers and, thereby, also increasing the flow of tourism dollars across the nation.
Originally known as Decoration Day, the holiday was officially proclaimed on May 5, 1868, by Gen. John Logan, national commander of the Grand Army of the Republic, and was first observed on May 30, 1868. On that day flowers were placed on the graves of Union and Confederate soldiers at Arlington National Cemetery.
By 1890 it was recognized by all of the northern states. The South refused to acknowledge or observe the holiday, honoring their dead on separate days until after World War I (when the holiday changed from honoring just those who died fighting in the Civil War to honoring all Americans who died fighting in any war).
For many years Memorial Day was properly observed in communities across the country and followed the practice of placing flowers or flags on the graves of deceased military men and women or holding memorial services in cemeteries. In rural America, the American Legion, the Veterans of Foreign Wars and their auxiliaries have worked hard to keep the traditions of memorializing and honoring the war dead.
But sadly, fewer and fewer people know, understand or care about the significance of this and other patriotic observances.
There are probably many reasons for this. A small and continually diminishing proportion of the population is serving or has served in the military. Accompanying this is the smaller than ever and diminishing number of politicians at the national level who have any significant military service or experience.
But most recently, many of the most senior elected officials in the country seem uncomfortable with the United States having the most powerful military forces in the world and are actively or passively pursuing courses that will significantly diminish the military aspect of our overall national power.
I understand that having a strong, superior military is not an end in itself. However, it is necessary to protect the people and interests of the United States around the world. We have been criticized for trying to play the "policeman" of the world and a significant amount of that has come from inside our country.
I have heard many criticisms of the wars in southwest Asia. I also read an interesting perspective on the war in Iraq in which the Iraqi analyst observed you have to ask the Iraqi people themselves if that war was worth it to them.
The jury is also still out on Afghanistan, the mess in Syria, the role of Russia and Iran in supplying arms to Al Qaida and other nefarious groups in that region, and expanding Islamic terrorism throughout the world.
And the jurors are really asking a lot of questions about the Benghazi Consulate attack in Libya. Have you noticed how the Arab Spring that was so loudly touted by our leaders was not a season of rebirth and renewal, but one of regression and repression?
I cannot help but ponder as we approach Memorial Day about the four Americans who died in Benghazi and how the "facts" initially reported were spun to tell us that some obscure video that hardly anyone had seen or reacted to was somehow the impetus for a spontaneous demonstration that got out of hand.
It is apparent to me that the ambassador and the other people were unintentionally sacrificed by an administration who thought that additional protective measures would send someone the "wrong signal" and also had no plan or capability to defend our personnel.
I'm ashamed to think that perhaps our political and military leaders didn't even try to save our fellow countrymen. To me and many people I know, this is beyond unconscionable.
We are doing a very poor job of teaching our children the real facts about our history and our role in the world. Without an understanding of our history — both the good and the bad — they will not be able to analyze and understand world events. And without that understanding, they will be like sheep that will blindly elect and follow their leaders no matter what.
Why do we constantly overemphasize the "bad" of some of our actions and ignore the good of so many more of the positive actions our country has taken for centuries?
In 1863, President Lincoln closed out his dedication of the cemetery at Gettysburg, Pa., with these words, "... that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain — that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
In 2012, President Obama referred to Benghazi as a "speed bump." And then in her testimony before a congressional committee this year, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton observed heatedly, "What difference does it make?"
Maybe this obvious contrast in attitudes really explains why Memorial Day and so many other traditions and aspects of our once proud and respected culture have found their way into the trash can of liberal-progressive political philosophy and practices. If this is to change, we must elect leaders who do more than simply go through the motions of supporting our country and the military.
It would be fantastic to have some leaders who actually believed in God and Country and then put that belief into meaningful actions!
I'm certain nearly all of you have relatives and friends who died in service to our country. Please remember them and their sacrifices on Monday, and throughout the year, too.
Well, that's what's been on my mind.


text: But I do have to say, I was exctied to take the test and I liked how it was put together. Since the test retires tomorrow I'll just do v6 later this year. I'm going to take a break for now and I'll pick up on the v6 in a month or 4. It did seem like I was taking the v6 test because were some things on there I never heard of. But for those you are up next, study study study.

When we drafted him and everyone was loving the pick, I said it was a bad pick. He's an inefficient volume shooter. He was that in college as well. We'll see if he can overcome that.
I unleashed the fury on some successions though.
About a thousand of us took successions during the summer session because Lazarus (real name, wrote the book, but long gone) was teaching and was supposed to be a soft touch. That South American a-hole figured that shite out and got pissed off. He hammered the entire class. Worst grade I received in law school. We always referred to him as "the de cujus".
Got me some Randal Trahan. He's a whole nother mess.
that property exam was horrific
I'm on the Austin Rivers is terrible bandwagon. Dude looks completely lost out there and has ZERO finishing ability. Should have stayed in school another year.
FG% is at 28.3
PER of 5.2
He passes open wide.open shots to drive and pray. No confidence
This draft was supposed to have about 5-7 instant impact starters, everyone else after that was either a project or an instant impact but career bench player. Rivers needs to be judged on one thing this season, is he learning and doing what Monty asks him to do. That low standard won't last for ever, but his elite ability to get to the basket means he's worth investing some time to develop his missing basketball skills.

MADISON, Wis. - The University of Wisconsin Police Department said it's been dealing with more dangerously drunken students, and there's only been one game in this year's college football season.
Last week, two female students were taken to the hospital after being found not just drunk, but dangerously drunk.
UWPD Sgt. Mike Chapin said it was shocking to hear the blood-alcohol content numbers.
"Somebody conveyed at a 0.37 percent. That is alarming," Chapin said. "That is something we don't see on a regular basis."
But in the emergency room of St. Mary's hospital, doctors like Dr. Mike Halberg said he's seen his fair share of those students who went way over their body's limit.
"One, they have no tolerance. Two, they have no experience to know how much they can drink without it getting dangerous," Halberg said.
The problem has long been an issue on campus. The UW has had the reputation as a party school for more than three decades. Lori Berquam, UW dean of students, said the school has put keeping students safe ahead of punishing irresponsible drinking, but the problem runs far deeper than lack of discipline.
"This is a deep-seated cultural problem," Berquam said. "How do we prevent to difficult situations from happening to our young people?"
The university does eject students for being too drunk at sporting events. After ejection, students are subjected to breath tests before gaining entry to any game for the rest of the season.Officials: UW students drinking 'extreme'

A collection of stories about the New Zealand Goldrush (1861 - 1872) contributed by readers of this website. These will include stories of individual miners as well as descriptions of the various goldfields, the conditions the miners found there when they arrived and the equipment they used to find, collect and purify the gold.

A five-stamper quartz battery in operation using water power and a pelton wheel at The Goldfields Mining Center, Otago, 2012.
Operating the stampers required a supply of running water to operate a water wheel or pelton wheel and for washing out and sluicing the pulverized quartz. Many of them were steam-powered, which also required a good source of fuel and water.
The stamper batteries were placed either beside a stream, or alternatively water was brought in using a water race.

Re: Uncharted 3 MP stats feedback thread
Provide the same information that one can see on the co-op tab of the in-game Statistics page - the number of matches completed on Easy/Normal/Hard/Crushing
Either visible on the stats page, or provide the data in the Javascript section (where one can currently look to see NPC kills and such).
Re: Uncharted 3 MP stats feedback thread
Re: Uncharted 3 MP stats feedback thread
You spelled interest wrong....
a seperate stat page for every game type is needed so people dont play ovjective just to kill people to boost their k/d ratio.
objective stat page should show points, number of times you killed the marked man, times scored in treasure hunt, and everything like that.
you should not have to throw the idol to the chest because people wait by the chest just to steal your score. i mean you should be able to walk up to the chest it shouldnt be like up a ladder or something if you know what i mean.
team deathmatch should show number of assists! and i know you disagree but i think k/d ratio should be included in deathmatch stats only. not objective stats. a person with 12-20 shouldnt be in first place on team. because they didnt help the team. free for all would stil be first one to get 20 kills or whatever though not the ratio.
when a team mate kills me it should NOT count as a death. it also shouldnt break my kill streak.
i hope yall read this

Today, similar demands are electrifying people across our nation. Here in Massachusetts, we are closely watching events unfold in Wisconsin and other battleground states where right-wing groups are attempting to silence working families. But there is more to be done. NEA and MTA are urging all members to take part in the upcoming National Day of Action on April 4. On that day and the days surrounding it, educators will stand in solidarity with working people everywhere to honor Dr. King's dream of a better America and show our support for economic justice, government accountability and great public schools, colleges and universities. One crucial event is a Lobby Day being organized by the MTA and fellow members of the Public Employees' Municipal Health Coalition at the Massachusetts State House. Click here for a flier with more details. This event is an opportunity for educators and fellow union members to speak directly to legislators and ask them to protect our collective bargaining rights. It is especially important that MTA members turn out in large numbers because the Legislature will soon be deciding on important municipal health insurance changes. If you can't make it to Boston on April 4, join us online on April 4 and April 5 and send a message to your legislators from your home computer. There are also other events happening across the state on and around the National Day of Action. Those set so far include: April 4, 3:30 p.m.March/rally at Springfield City Hall, sponsored by Western Massachusetts Jobs with Justice. Details are pending. For information, contact Western Mass JWJ at 413-827-0301. April 4, 4 p.m."We Are One" Rally outside Republican Party Headquarters, 85 Merrimac St., Boston.

Excerpt: "Good morning, New York Giants' fans! Here are your Friday morning links.
Let's start with this tweet from Osi Umenyiora, which seems to be a pretty clear indication that he has no intention of returning to the Giants:
I intend on breaking strahan's sack record this season. That's impossible playing in a rotation.
Valentine's View: Bye, bye! Osi always has seemed to have an inflated sense of how good he is, and that comment is another example." Read more...

T'is the season when the rains start to fall in the Northwest and the snows start to fall in the Midwest. Yes, that's when people start to wonder why they don't spend more time in lovely places like Tucson Arizona, and they book a week or so at our Tuscon Arizona Inn. Some folks so deeply in love with this area that they end up moving here. Others just vow to return again, year after year. And they do.
Why? Because it is lovely here in the southwest in the winter, particularly in the Tucson area. True, nights can be cold, and it sometimes snows; but days are often sunny and just the right degree of warm.
Because the weather is so fine, it draws folks out of doors during the winter months. November is a great time to take long hikes in nearby Saguaro National Park or Sabino Canyon. Either spot offers miles of hiking trails, spectacular views, and clean air.
Tucson Botanical Gardens is always a good spot to visit while staying at our Tucson Arizona lodging, especially if you want to indulge in the beauty of southern Arizona wilderness without delving too deeply into that wilderness. There is always something interesting happening at the Tucson Botanical Gardens, such as the Scarecrows in the Garden exhibit, through November 30, 2010.
So don't feel sad when the rains set in or the icy cold arrives with a blast. Fight back by heading south for a while, to this Tucson Arizona Inn.

Puig could deliver big returns — in more ways than one
The Dodger Beast seemingly lurks at every turn.
The latest concern for rival clubs stems from the stunning spring-training performance of outfielder Yasiel Puig — and not simply because the Dodgers' $42 million investment soon might look like a bargain.
No, rival executives are concerned that Puig's ascent eventually will help the Dodgers secure other top prospects.
By pushing the Dodgers to trade one of their expensive corner outfielders, Carl Crawford or Andre Ethier, and secure additional young talent by paying most of that player's contract as part of the deal.
In other words, the Dodgers not only can outbid teams for stars, but also can buy their way out of mistakes and come out ahead. And, at a time when teams face new restrictions on spending for both domestic and international amateurs, the Dodgers' financial might could give them a huge advantage in amassing top prospects.
Such moves would be perfectly acceptable under the collective bargaining agreement, provided that commissioner Bud Selig determined that they benefited both clubs from a baseball perspective.
And why wouldn't he?
Selig didn't stop the Marlins' controversial salary dump last offseason, allowing the team to send shortstop Jose Reyes, right-hander Josh Johnson and left-hander Mark Buerhle to the Blue Jays.
And he didn't stop the Dodgers from taking on more than $260 million in salaries last August, permitting them to acquire Crawford, first baseman Adrian Gonzalez and right-hander Josh Beckett from the Red Sox.
Let's say Puig tears up the minors and the Dodgers decide to promote him at mid-season. They then would face the choice of moving Crawford, who is owed $102.5 million over the next five seasons, or Ethier, who is owed $85 million over the same period.
Neither player is attractive at those figures. But if Ethier was playing well and the Dodgers paid enough to turn him into a player with an average salary of say, $7 million instead of $17 million, another team almost certainly would part with good prospects in return.
"It's smart, actually — the only way to really build a farm system under the new rules," one rival executive says. "And you can only do it if you've got big dollars."
Rival executives worry that the Dodgers could return to the formula again and again, effectively circumventing the draft.
Tired of Gonzalez? Pay down his deal and get younger players. Zack Greinke doesn't work out? Do the same. And keep the machine running by signing top free agents year after year.
The Dodgers' budget surely is not unlimited, but they have yet to pull back on any front in any meaningful way.
Puig could be a gift that keeps on giving. And not the last such gift, either.
— Ken Rosenthal

We chose to take the S7 from the airport and then the U1 (one stop) to get to the apartment. In this way we saved 6€ (one way) in comparison to the expensive CAT. The apartment is well located just opposite the U1 stop and only 4 stops away to Stephansplatz, very comfortable! Every communication was very easy and precise so we got to the address and found Elmina who gave us the keys and showed us everything. Do not get afraid of the building entrance, as it is very old. But the flat is newly renovated and clean and also very luminous and airy. Heating and hot water were not a problem and self adjustable (important if you don't like a very hot bedroom). The kitchen has got everyhing to cook quick meals. The bathroom is small but clean with shower. Television is available and with cable free channels: good for people who speaks German like me! Shops are round the corner to get something quickly. Very comfortable in everything, clean and very quiet! We could sleep very well and undisturbed. I already recommended this flat and owners to my sister and friends. :-)
I stayed at Walter's Oct 08-15. I was quite satisfied with everything about the apartment. It was exactly as pictured in the website. A microwave in the kitchen would have been nice, but that is my only criticism. The apartment was very quiet in the main room. It couldn't be in a more ideal location. There are Würstel Stands on either side of the entrace to the building (including a Kebop available for € 2!), as well as a bakery. 3 grocery stores are within 5 minutes walking distance, and at the end of the street is the most excellent Caffee Latte, open 7 days a week from early to late, serving excellent food. Transportation? Directly across the street from the apartment is the Alser Straße stop for the Line 6 U-bahn, and at the corner is the #43 tram Between the two you have access to one of the finest city transit systems I've ever experienced. No where I wished to go was more than 15-20 minutes away. With the fine 7-day transit pass, the city is at your command. If this apartment is available the next time I travel to Wien, I shall book it with no hesitation!
Thanks for a great stay!
The apartment had all what my girlfriend and I needed, i.e. spacious, clean and close to an underground station (actually right around the corner; 1 min walk). Within 10 min you are in the city centre. Landlords are very friendly and helpful. The building itself is not that nice but this shouldn't be an issue. I would definitely book it again.
We recomend this appartment as it has very good relation price-quality. We went by car and it's only a few minutes distance from the city center. The appartment was really clean and spaceful. It's a very confortable appartment to go with friends or familly.
Everything was very nice. Kind and Helpful host. But not recommend for summer. Room was very hot and cannot open the window because of noise. But other seasons are no any problem.
I had a very nice time in Walter's apartment: it's roomy and confortable and there's everything you need to feel at home.
It has a good location: in that district you can find lots of shops and the underground U1 is just at the corner of the buildings. The owners are very kind ad ready to give any information you need. Really a nice experience! Alessandro
Nice appartment in an old building. It was clean. Lots of space. You can sleep in three separate rooms. Beds are firm but good. Furniture was good. Enough towels. We enjoyed our stay.
Metro just out of the door. Supermarket and bakery nearby.
The appartment lacks airco. When its warm, you have to open the windows. Outside is a lot of trafficnoise. When the window is closed, most of the noise is shut out.
Friendly and coöperative landlady. Katharina!
we stayed at Vienna for 4 days: 4 wonderful delightful days. The appartment was clean, spacious, very well equipped. No ned to take towels, bedlinnen, it was al provided for.There was a coffee bar on the ground flour, and another one three houses below. We were right in the middle between St Stephansplatz and Schonbrunn, and 4 stops with the metro fron the Naschmarkt. On foot we reached Stephansplatz on 25 minutes sharp, while window shopping! Sonja and Roos
Nice reception. Apartment is spacious, beds ++. Plumbing and linen okay ++ Unfortunately no tourist info in app. Location ++, opposite U-bahn (aboveground) and to a busy main road. A lot of traffic noise. Window open is no option.
We had a very pleasant stay in Vienna, thanks again!
Very comfortable, 6 of us stayed. Very near bakeries, restaurants (inc McD), supermarket. U-bahn and tram station right in front of apartment - so easy to move around. Owner Birgit VERY helpful and responsive to minor repairs arranging taxis to airport etc. Will definitely stay here if I come to Vienna again.

I've dealt with too many drug addicted/drunken/criminal types as a beekeeper/employer. They always want to get even with those they blame for their problems. It's always the employer's fault when they get fired or not called back. Better to choose the least provocative path...at least this time. If the problem persists, then there are other options.

I dont want the goofy red pin stripe that I had or the chrome across the bottom of my truck. Here is what I had.... Here is a pic of just a black one I found... Here is another one thats mostly black with silver on the bottom.... And finally here is a truck with the black and the silver reversed.... I know its not a suburban but its what I could find....

A pseudo-porn style one night stand which was only closed due to the hotness of the guy, but unsatisfying because the guy is an idiot who performs reminiscent of a porno, but still leaves something to be desired due to intellectual disconnection and lack of idea what's going on.
I banged him because he's hot; it was good...I think, but it was like he thought he was in a porno so he moved OK but he was kind of a tool and subsequently doesn't know how to satisfy a woman. Classic Glamour Fuck. Good enough!

Problems with pattern - the size seems wonky!Submitted by jmcdonald on Sun, 2006-04-02 15:03
I recently completed this childrens sweater for my nephew Jaxon. It worked great. I'm not sure if his mother will ever put it on him but I'm certain the sizing was good - if not a little big for him right now.
So, I thought, now that I've tackled a small sweater in this lopi pattern then I'll do a nice big one for me. The cardigan in this picture.
I did the cuff at the bottom and the pattern, it worked great, except it's made for a munchkin.
I wonder if anyone else has had this problem. I've made two sweaters now and both turned out well - this one I really want for me, as I've knit the others for my partner and my nephew. How frustrating! Ommmm...

Delgado and fellow agents, Phillip Singer and Chase Jordan, work with a group of unsuspecting engineers to develop unmanned jets that will hit their assigned targets. The Army and the FBI begin to uncover the plot, forcing Delgado to intervene. The CIA agents also have to deal with an increasingly suspicious George Poole, the lead engineer working on the drones, who becomes skeptical on how the remote controlled planes will be used. A battle between good and evil ensues as the plot to attack America becomes a hard-hitting reality.
