yes he won this one..it has nothing to do with wed night..check out 1-5 above it's just a statement just like ntegrase made..plus shove your man card!!!
Hmm my google chrome gave me a potential hazardous website link to this board when i click this thread
Romo is better at failing his teams success by his own failure .....He doesn't know what it's like to have your team decimated by injuries and overcoming it..Eli deals with this consistantly Every season
The claim that "until the playoffs of 2007 Eli Manning was awful" is an untrue statement. Actually it is a ridiculous statement. Prior to the 2007 playoffs Eli Manning had some rough patches and in fact did have some awfule games and guess what? Sometimes he still does. However, Eli Manning was never overall awful prior to the 2007 post season. If you want to claim that he elevated his game when the 2007 playoffs began or he has steadily evolved since the 2007 playoffs began then you have a point but to say he was awful before the 2007 playoffs is ridiculous. Granted you don't want to see the legend of Eli Manning blown out of proportion but then again, that does not mean that folks are going to buy the ridiculous claims you are making that he was awful.
The claim that "Eli Manning was just a bus driver till the 2007 playoffs" is also an absurd statement. For a QB to be simply a bus driver would mean that at least one aspect of the offense would be overwhelmingly dominant and Eli Manning has never had that. He has never been simply a bus driver. I know that you and a lot of other Dallas Cowboys fans would like that to be the cae but it just isn't so. You know what is ironic, I have heard folks make the statement that Troy Aikman was just a bus driver and that was also not the case. Troy Aikman was very underrated. Granted, he had a great offensive line with a great running game. Granted, Double J (Jimmy Johnson) also stated that Jim Kelly was more the type of QB that he preferred but in my opinion, Troy Aikman was very underrated and the most important part of that Dallas Cowboys team.
I feel that Eli Manning is a better QB than Tony Romo. However, that does not mean that ELIte Eli does everything better than The Romosexual. I will give my opinion as to what I think Tony Romo does better and what I think Eli Manning does better.
IMPROVISATION- Both QBs do this very well but I am going to have to give the upper hand in this category to Tony Romo. He extends plays and is very mobile. Eli Manning is deceptively quick on his feet and he has learned to throw the ball away and that is a big reason we have seen the interceptions fall to 16 last season as oppossed to the prior seasons total of 25. However the category of improvisation is going to go to Tony Romo as having the edge.
MOBILITY- Part of the reason Tony Romo has the edge in this category is also the reason he has the edge in improvisation, he is a better runner and takes off better than Eli Manning. Now, that is not just from pure speed it is from the decision to take off and run. When we see Eli Manning run over the line of scrimage it is usually as a last resort and not one that has a concrete decision to it. I know that may sound odd. However when Eli Manning runs it is usually capped off with a clumsy slide that is not pretty to watch. It is obvious that he has had it beaten in to him by coaches to not run and take the chance of getting injured. Thats fine with us but there is an interesting fact that on the rare occassion when we have seen Eli Manning dip his shoulder and commit to, he is quite good at it and knocks people over. He is a big boy and another interesting fact is that he has the same 40 time as Drew Brees. However even when he decides to commit to run on the rare occassion the edge still goes to Tony Romo.
ACCURACY & COMPLETION %- Overall the numbers don't lie in this one and Tony Romo's percentage is better than Eli Mannings. I think a lot of this has to do with the two prior categories in regard to how Tony Romo can extend the play. Eli Manning has a miserable offensive line and has to throw the ball away quite a bit. Also, our WRs either lead the league or are near the top in dropped passes almost every season. Eli Manning's numbers are going to be deceptively low here and I fear that may always be the case. I am not sure about Tony Romo's attitude in reagrd to it but it is clear that Eli Manning doesn't care about his statistics. He cares about winning and leading, that is clear. Tony Romo is a very accurate passer and the edge in this category is going to him.
PLAYING WITH A LEAD- The numbers don't lie here and as pointed out earlier by another poster, Tony Romo leads in this category too.
ADAPTABILITY- The edge in this category is going to go to Eli Manning. In my opinion, the edge here is not just over Tony Romo but over any QB in the game right now. Eli Manning is constantly changing the play, redirecting personnell at the line of scrimmage and constantly changing the plan throughout. This probably why we see so many 4th quarter TDs and comebacks from Eli Manning. When he calls the plays and lets it go, he is lethal. Eli Manning constantly changes and manipulates how a game is played depending on which team NY Giants are playing against. A great example are the games against NE Patriots. Eli Manning extends drives and eats up the clock in order to give defense a rest and to keep Tom Brady on the sidelines for as long as possible. Eli Manning is a master at manipulating the tempo of games.Half of Eli Manning's TD passes during the regular season last year were in the 4th quarter. He threw a total of 29 TDs and 15 were in the 4th. He led the league in pass completions of 20+ yards last season. A good deal of those long passes were when he either picked up the blitz or audibled at the line of scrimmage. Tony Romo is not a slouch in the adaptability category but the edge here is going to Eli Manning.
CLUTCH SITUATIONS- Although Tony Romo has the higher rating overall in 4th quarter he does have some career defining gaffes in cluth situations. these gaffes have haunted him to this point and I think although he may never win a SuperBowl, he will come through in the clutch during important situations in the near future and may take his team deep in playoffs. The guy is that talented and that dedicated to football. I would not be overly surprised if he does take his team to a SuperBowl and maybe even win it before his career is over. However, up till this point Tony Romo is a large dissapointment in regards to being clutch during the big games. This category may be the one that defines Eli Mannings career when all is said and done. His heoics in the clutch are already legendary and I suspect he will be expanding on this quite a bit as The Book of Eli continues to be written. A large edge in this category is given to Eli Manning.
TOUGHNESS- Both these QBs are tough as heck. Both these QBs have less acceptable offensive lines. Tony Romo has taken beatings and plays hurt. he has some injuries that have caused him to miss games. Eli Manning has never missed a game since his 1st start for NY Giants. He has taken beatings and the one in the playoffs last season against that ravenous San Francisco 49ers defense was brutal. In that game Eli Manning withstood a severe beating and played QB as well as the position can be played against a defense like that. Eli Manning's performance was awe inspiring and is what legends are made of. This category can be argued for either one of these guys being given the nod over the other but I am going to give the edge here to Eli Manning.
We can go back and forth from category to category to sub category to sub category. We can find aspects that find an advantage for either one being better in that category. Both of these guys are excellent QBs that have taken a great deal of criticism from the media. Both are respected and hated by the oppossing teams fanbase. Both are star QBs for high profile teams in high profile markets. Tony Romo is superior in a number of regular season statistics. A glaring one that he is not superior in is single season yards and that is last season when Eli Manning had the 6th highest total in history of NFL. I suspect that there will be numerous regular season statistics that Tony Romo will be superior in by the time their careers are over. However, regular season longevity statistics such as consecutive seasons of more than 20 TDs and over 3,000 yards thrown and consecutive games played will go to eli Manning. Post season success and statistical superiority in post season will go by a landslide to Eli Manning unless there is a miraculous improvement in this category by Tony Romo and a very surprising collapse by Eli Manning in this category. Eli Manning is the overall more successful QB and is an ELIte one as of right now. At this time Tony Romo is an excellent QB but until he elevates his clutch performance in big games or just his overall ability to win big games and take his team deep in playoffs, he will not be considered elite in my opinion.
I do think there will be a time when Tony Romo wins some big games and takes Dallas Cowboys deep in playoffs. I also think that Eli Manning will bring at least one or two more SuperBowl trophies to us, he is that great. In my opinion, I think that by the time his career is over, he will considered one of the great clutch QBs in the history of the game.
I have a lot of respect for Tony Romo and I think he is going to play great for4-5 more years. Dallas Cowboys will always be a dangerous opponent for as long as he is their QB.
Eli Manning is my favorite football player of all time. I am so happy that he is a NY Giant and that he will help elevate our team to heights we have not previously attained.
It was a lot of fun doing this and then going off topic on tangents. Oh well, I guess that is what happens when I have all this time while I am on convalesant leave.
I bELIeve.

As a new listener, I don't know whether you've later corrected this or not, but you got several important things wrong in describing the antebellum South in the first episode on Hookworm. They did have machines, and they made good use of them. What they did not have was factories, because they were making plenty of money farming on the backs of unpaid slaves.
The first Africans arrived in Jamestown in the early 1600's, not long after the European settlers arrived. (You said the 1830's.) The cotton gin was invented in 1793. It made cotton farming *far* more profitable, greatly increasing the slave trade until the international slave trade was banned in 1808. Internal slave trading continued, and the slave population continued to grow dramatically because the slave women were forced to have as many children as possible. Children born to female slaves became slaves, whether their fathers were slave or free. "Due to its inadvertent effect on American slavery, the invention of the cotton gin is frequently cited as one of the ultimate causes of the Civil War." The American South provided two thirds of the world supply of cotton by the start of the Civil War.
So hookworm must have been endemic long before the Civil War. There wasn't much more introduction after 1808. However, substantial parts of the South were still under Native American control, and thus perhaps free of hookworm, until the Trail of Tears forced relocation in 1830, and the land was sold for agricultural use.
Also, there was slavery in the north, though certainly not as much. There were still slaves in New Hampshire and New Jersey until the emancipation proclamation in 1865. Other northern states had banned it earlier. Southerners brought their slaves with them when they came north. You can see George Washington's slave quarters in Philadelphia across the street from the Liberty Bell. Slaves who got their freedom in various ways migrated north.
The American history mistakes start about 10 minutes into the episode.
Thanks for a great podcast!

Hi Dickson and Vincent,
I recently started listening to TWIP and TWIV, and I love them both! It's been hard trying to catch up and listen to them all (needless to say, I'm not even close).
I'm wondering if you guys know of any neotropical parasites (or viruses for that matter, I just thought parasites might be more likely) that live some part of their lives in both snails and bats.
I'd appreciate any thoughts you may have :)
Thanks so much!!

Hi Dickson and Vincent,
I listen to every episode of Twiv, Twip and Twim and often follow along with Wikipedia to help me understand terms i am not familiar with and also check out most of your picks.
I also watch Monsters Inside Me with my 12 year old daughters. I am up to Season 2, Episode 3 and was just wondering if you (Dickson) were still advising on this show?
In this episode a man got very ill and his spleen swelled to 5 times it's normal size, after a battery of tests finally a test for leishmaniasis came back positive, would this be visceral leishmaniasis?
I didn't pick this as I would expect some sort of skin lesion. Also they treated him with anti-biotics and he recovered, I am only a computer programmer but I would not think anti biotics would be the recommended treatment for leishmaniasis
Thanks for the awesome work of the entire TWIx crew puts into producing these podcasts

Dear TwiP'ers,
I recently found out that when my mum was pregnant with me she was tested for toxoplasmosis, and it turned out that she had very high titres of IgG against toxoplasma. However, she took no treatment, and had absolutely no symptoms of disease. I turned out ok, I think, so it doesn't seem to have done anything bad. So I was wondering, are all pregnant women tested for toxoplasmosis and if so why? My mum was pregnant in 1992 and it was in Lithuania, so I wouldn't be surprised if things have changed from that time or have always been different in US. Does carriage of toxoplasma pose any threats for pregnant women and their foetuses? Also, Is it likely that I now have antibodies against toxoplasma because my mother was infected while pregnant?
Best wishes,

So the wife and I set up a little honey stand inside a store that allows local people to sell local crafts and wares. We only had 19 bottles on the shelf and all the label said on it was 'Raw Wyoming Honey' from Moon Apiaries. After it was on the stand for 2-3 days a woman who also has products for sale in the store raised a big fit about it. Saying we need licenses, insurance, inspection certificates, and that the whole process would take up to 3 months. So in the interest of avoiding conflict and getting this lady whipped into a tizzy we went down and pulled all of our honey off the store shelves until we talked to the food and health inspector. When we were in there this woman was there at the same time and started giving me the riot act on how honey and dairy products were the two hardest products to sell as a small mom and pop operation. She sold goat milk soaps and lotions as well as some herbal tea's and other products. She told me the risk of botulism from honey required special licensing to sell it. I told her that it was impossible for honey to contain botulism due to it's anti-bacterial properties. As a matter of fact I told her, honey is actually used in bandages for burn victims and is currently being tested to treat MRSA as it has showed promise in treating antibiotic resistant strains of the infection. She about went through the roof raising her voice telling me it was illegal to sell anything making claims like that and that the FDA would basically seize everything I own and fine me 25,000 dollars for even mentioning something like that. I politely informed her that she didn't know what it was she was talking about and she definitely didn't know anything about honey but that we would be happy to speak with the health inspector before returning our product to the shelf. She seemed combative about the whole idea to say the least.
Just wanted to vent figured you guys could throw your two cents in on the whole deal.
Just as an after thought as I was re-reading this. She got upset and said the honey needed to be labeled as Raw honey. When we told her it was labeled as raw honey she got really upset and told us it was illegal for us to sell it as organic honey. I told her as nicely as possible there was no indication that we were selling or labeling our honey as organic or to pass it off as organic. She proceeded to tell me that unless it was certified as organic we needed to have the honey's expiration date posted on it. I tried to explain to her that honey didn't expire. In fact I told her that honey had been found in ancient Egyptian tombs that was 3,000 plus years old and was deemed to still be edible. She told me that was because that was real pure honey before insecticides and pesticides came onto the scene and now honey would expire after a few years due to the pesticides. I just gave up trying and figured the lady was batty.

Apartment well located and clean, but nothing kitchen to prepare coffee or another (some welcoming coffee capsules title would have been appreciated). Cold, minimalist home. Difficult to park and no information or advice to guide us. Poor wifi connection. Would recommend it for the location.
Appartement bien placé et propre, cuisine équipée mais rien pour se préparer un café ou autre (quelques capsules de café à titre de bienvenue auraient été appréciées). Accueil froid et minimaliste. Difficile de parquer et aucune indication ou conseil pour nous guider. Connexion wifi déficiente. On le recommandera pour l'emplacement.
The place is beautiful and the host very correct, I recommend staying here to everyone
El lugar es precioso y el anfitrion muy correcto, recomiendo alojarse aqui a todo el mundo
Exactly like shown in the pictures and spotlessly clean. Great view to Alhambra and perfect location in the beautiful Albayzin. Michael lives next door in case of any questions. I would not bring a big suitcase next time as the stairs are very narrow. Highly recommended!
The apartment is U.E. no 50 square meters, but rather 35 sqm. It is located in Granada's old town in the district Albaizin / Sacromonte. We had rented a car from Malaga, but could not go in the quarter with this, because it is only for residents and taxi drivers freely accessible. Walk from the nearest public car park about 10 minutes. The kitchen is minimalist. A stay not really possible with child. There is no coffee machine, no kettle and otherwise did not miss too many corners. Miguel we have seen only the keys, then no longer (which we found pleasant). The apartment has no balcony or terrace, as it was in the equipment description. Of this we were more than disappointed, because we rented the apartment because of the terrace described as "cozy" and other apartments had left it aside. The price of 62 € / day was therefore not appropriate. Also located just below the apartment a flamenco bar, from which it every night over boomed to our. Guests of the bar were also incredibly noisy when leaving, so that you were woken up frequently. All in all we regretted to have rented the apartment, unfortunately! Beate and Klaus
Die Wohnung ist u.E. keine 50 qm groß, sondern eher 35 qm. Sie liegt in der Altstadt von Granada im Stadtviertel Albaizin/Sacromonte. Wir hatten einen Leihwagen ab Màlaga gemietet, konnten mit diesem jedoch nicht in das Viertel fahren, da es nur für Anwohner und Taxifahrer frei zugängig ist. Gehzeit vom nächst gelegenen öffentlichen Parkplatz: ca. 10 Minuten. Die Küche ist minimalistisch eingerichtet. Ein Aufenthalt mit Kind eigentlich nicht möglich. Es gibt keine Kaffeemaschine, keinen Wasserkocher und ansonsten hat es auch an vielen Ecken gefehlt. Miguel haben wir nur bei der Schlüsselübergabe gesehen, danach nicht mehr (was wir angenehm fanden). Die Wohnung hat keinen Balkon oder Terrasse, wie es in der Ausstattungsbeschreibung stand. Davon waren wir mehr als enttäuscht, da wir die Wohnung gerade wegen der als "gemütlich" beschriebenen Terrasse gemietet, und andere Wohnungen dafür außer Acht gelassen hatten. Der Preis von 62 €/Tag war deshalb nicht angemessen. Außerdem befindet sich gleich unterhalb der Wohnung eine Flamenco-Bar, von der es jede Nacht zu unser herüberdröhnte. Die Gäste der Bar waren außerdem unglaublich laut beim Weggehen, so dass man nachts des Öfteren geweckt wurde. Alles in allem haben wir bedauert, diese Wohnung gemietet zu haben, leider! Beate und Klaus
Charming apartment in barrio Sacromonte. A bit hidden into the streets which makes at difficult to find. No quite reachable by car. We had to park it about 1,5 km distance. The apartment is really one with the barrio: same interior and exterior, practical, magnificant view. The Alhambra is great to see and the Sierra Nevada. Cross the street and you are in the middle of the Albyzin. Walk down and you're near the Darro river. It is easy to make contact with Miguel, he always respond.
I have to say that the nights were terrible. Not because of the flamencoshow very close to the apartment (it stops 00:30h), but noisy people screaming, shouting and singing through the night. Between 2:30h and 5:00h we could not sleep at all (both nights thursday and friday). Very dissapointed about that point (and the car) because the apartment is lovely.
The Alhambra views are really stunning to see by day and night. Apart from this we enjoyed our stay in the apartment very much. It is nicely designed with lovely paintings on the wall.
We walked from the station but that's not a very good idea.The street is very hard to find so at last we took a taxi.
After you have found the place it is an easy walk to the centre as well as the Albayzin and Sacromonte.
We did not see very much of our host but when we met him he was very nice.
We hope to come there again and can surely recommend the place.
Thank you Miquel.
stayed in three of Miguels apartments, all of them in best old-town position and very clean; they are individually equipped, each with a special delight: an overwhelming view, a commodious partition or beeing an inventive calm cavern;
recommend them all with their artistic touch and lovely details, would always come again...
Michael is a great host and the apartment is in a provilegiada situation. The views from the front door are beautiful with just opposite the Alhambra. The location is perfect to explore Granada and culture.
The apartment is very cozy and clean.
Miguel es un buen anfitrión y el apartamento se encuentra en una situación provilegiada. Las vistas desde la puerta de la casa son preciosas, con la Alhambra justo enfrente. La localización es perfecta para conocer Granada y su cultura.
El apartamento es muy acogedor y esta limpio.
Is a very nice place to visit again, the house is rather hidden if the place is unknown and 7 minutes you can park your host Miguel was very correct and for a weekend is not bad
Es un lugar muy bonito que volveremos a visitar , la casa esta más bien escondida si no se conoce el lugar y a 7 min puedes aparcar el anfitrión Miguel estuvo muy correcto y para un fin de semana no está mal
Wonderful apartment in fantastic location, lovely terrace overlooking the Alhambra phenomenal evening magical.

Juvenile alligator
The alligator is North America's largest reptile, growing up to 18 feet. The alligator was listed as an endangered species as recently as 1967, but thanks to restoration, it is now in 45 of Arkansas's 75 counties. To be classified as a reptile, an animal must be cold-blooded with scales. Most reptiles also lay eggs. Alligators have all three characteristics: rough scales, lay eggs and are poikilothermic or cold-blooded.
Carnivore – any animal that consumes other animals, whether living (predation) or dead (scavenging)
Crocodilian – any reptile of the order Crocodylia, comprising the true crocodiles and the alligators, caimans and gavials
Nictating membrane – transparent inner eyelid in birds, reptiles and some mammals that closes to protect and moisten the eye; also called a third eyelid

Ogden Myers, see in this old photo, will display his artwork at Stellar Beans Saturday. (Special to the American Press)
Last Modified: Thursday, April 04, 2013 11:33 AM
By Cliff Seiber / American Press
Hawaii resident Ogden Myers will have an exhibit of his paintings at Stellar Beans Coffee House & Edibles at 319 Broad St. Ogden will attend the opening reception from 6 to 9 p.m. Saturday.
The 85-year-old artist was born in Manhattan and grew up in Connecticut. After a term in the service, he attended the University of Arizona and the Art Center School of Design in Los Angeles. He worked in architectural firms in LA until he got a job in architecture, mostly designing condominiums, in Hawaii in 1964.
"I've been there ever since," he said.
The paintings on display will show quite a difference in style from the 1960s to 2010, he said.
"I could always draw what I could see, but as time went on, there were more and more compromises with the abstract — abstract thinking, abstract opinions, abstract appreciation."
He studied Chinese calligraphy and has "modernized" some scripts in his paintings, along with Japanese writing.
At age 65 he took a course in philosophy and has given a lot of thought to the philosophy of art.
"Real is great, but it doesn't tell me why I know in my heart that something is beautiful," he said.
His daughter, D'Ellen Myers, teaches at Sowela Technical Community College and is urging him to move here.

Acacia Park Crime Fears
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - A recent drug bust in Acacia Park is highlighting a problem that Colorado Springs Police are trying to keep a handle on for you and nearby business owners.
A successful partnership is brewing to stop downtown crime. Nearby business owners may not be seeing it yet, but the recent bust is proof of it. Some business owners tipped off police to the suspected drug activity in the park.
Springs Police have more officers on the Tejon corridor street beat. Two officers work 8 in the morning till 6 in the evening, Tuesday through Friday. Those officers were on red light street cam duty until late last year. The pair was reviewing tickets until the red light cameras were taken offline. They have been on this duty since the Christmas holiday and until further notice.
A night team of officers works Wednesday through Saturday, 6 p.m. to 4 in the morning.

Kira Meru
this wiki
Kira Meru was a Bajoran woman refugee and the mother of Colonel Kira Nerys of the Bajoran Militia.
She was born in the Dahkur Province on Bajor and as a child, like so many Bajorans at the time enslaved by Cardassians, Meru dreamed of having enough food to eat and pretty clothes to wear. She was married to Kira Taban and in addition to Nerys, had two sons with him, Kira Reon and Kira Pohl. As a woman of faith, she convinced her husband to go to services with her every day, even though he was not a particularly religious man himself.
She was a skilled icon painter and her favorite flowers were Bajoran lilacs.
She had a scar on the left side of her face, which she often tried to hide with a strand of hair, from a time when she had failed to show a Cardassian officer proper respect. (DS9: "Second Skin", "Wrongs Darker Than Death or Night", "Strange Bedfellows")
In 2346, during the Cardassian Occupation of Bajor, she and her family lived at the Singha refugee camp. Meru was chosen by Basso Tromac, a Bajoran collaborator, to serve as a comfort woman for Cardassian soldiers aboard Terok Nor. There, she became Gul Dukat's mistress. In return, Dukat made sure her family was cared for and received special treatment, such as food, housing and medical supplies. Meru continued to live with Dukat in relative luxury until her death seven years later in a Cardassian hospital.
Back on Bajor, Kira Taban told his children that Meru had died in the camp to protect them from knowing the truth about what their mother had to do in order to keep them well-fed and cared for. However, many years later, in 2374, Dukat - in an attempt to come clean with himself and his past - contacted Kira Nerys on what would have been Meru's sixtieth birthday and told her that he and Meru had been lovers. Unsettled by the possibility, Nerys traveled back in time using the Orb of Time and met Meru, under the guise of Luma Rahl. There, she found out first hand that Dukat was telling the truth: her mother had become Dukat's mistress and seemed to enjoy it too.
Disgusted that Meru seemed to be falling in love with Dukat and buying his lies about how much Cardassians cared about Bajorans, Nerys eventually participated in an assassination attempt on both of them by planting an ultritium bomb. Just before the bomb went off, Nerys heard a taped message from her father to her mother in which he thanked Meru for the sacrifice she was making which in turn had saved their lives. She panicked, suddenly realizing that maybe her mother was not the willing collaborator she believed her to be. Nerys grabbed Meru and Dukat and led them out of the room where the bomb was planted. The Orb of Time brought Kira back to the present during the explosion and back on Deep Space 9, she discussed the matter with Benjamin Sisko. She told him how conflicted she is about what her mother did, insisting that no matter what Meru's motives, it did not make it right, as she was living in the lap of luxury for seven more years, while thousands of Bajorans were losing their lives at the hands of murderers like Dukat and his kind. She admitted, however, that no matter what Meru had done, she was still her mother. (DS9: "Wrongs Darker Than Death or Night")
Background information Edit
Kira Meru was played by Leslie Hope.
In the Star Trek: Terok Nor novel Night of the Wolves, Dukat took another mistress (Tora Naprem) and his relationship with Meru began to crumble by 2348. Years later she was sent by Dukat to Crell Moset's hospital on Bajor, where she died of the Fostossa virus. He continued to take care of her family into the 2360s hoping to be able to stear Kira Nerys away from the Resistance. (Dawn of the Eagles)

They gave you the gift of life, now you're determined to give them a gift that doesn't suck. Deep down you know that dear old dad deserves more than a bottle of whisky and a pack of socks. Your mom, who clothed and fed you for at least 16 years, is worth more than a box of chocolates and slippers. As sons and daughters we occasionally forget that parents are actual people. They too have interests, likes, dislikes, personalities and yes, sex lives. Here is our list of the best gifts you'll find this holiday season for Mom and Dad.
Your parents send you links from Reddit, spend their free time playing Tetris and don't mind spending extra cash to have the latest gadgets.

Buy This If: Your mom and dad love driving around in their convertible packed with the latest gadgets, no matter how uneasy it makes everyone.

Mom and dad forgot to tell you about their timeshare in Hawaii and have helped you develop quite an extensive collection of postcards from around the world.

Buy This If: Their love isn't enough to get them through a 3 hour layover in LAX.
Over 100: Logitech Alert™ 750i Indoor Master System ($330)

Health Nut
Your mom stopped making her heavenly green bean casserole when she read about the dangers of trans fat and your Dad has enough motivation to hit the gym at 5:30 am.

Buy This If: They're ready to take their mall walking to the next level.
Over 100: WiFi Bodyscale ($159)
Buy This If: They've never lost their lust for competitiveness or want to shed those extra pounds for their senior's cruise.
Your mom never forgets to passive aggressively mention that your wife doesn't know how to cook meatballs and your dad may or may not be sneaking slices of brie from the fridge.
Under 100: Prepara Herb Savor Pods Set of 3 ($30)
Buy This If: Your mom doesn't believe the rough economy is a valid excuse to stop cooking every dish from scratch.
Over 100: Marky's Aqua Caviar Gift Basket ($87)

Your mom and dad schedule their vacations around the harvest season.

Lifeguards honored for saving 2-year-old who nearly drowned
CAMP LEJEUNE, ONSLOW COUNTY - Two lifeguards were honored at Camp Lejeune Thursday for saving a 2-year-old girl who nearly drowned in a pool.
Members of Camp Lejeune, the American Red Cross and American Marine Corps Communities recognized Clarissa McAllister and Sarah Dodson for saving 2-year-old Lucy Kernen. The little girl fell into a swimming pool in early July.
"I was just praying, like, 'Okay, I need to do this right now,' and I had to clear everything out of my mind and just concentrate on what was going on," McAllister said.
"I just dove in and pulled her up, and then I was like... I was just freaked out," Dodson said.
Lucy's mother, Theresa, was at the pool with her children that day while her husband was deployed. She said had it not been for the lifeguards' quick thinking, her family would be broken.
"They were mature and calm at a time when I didn't feel like I was calm enough to help my daughter," Theresa said.
After pulling 2-year-old Lucy out of the water, McAllister and Dodson began performing CPR. About a minute later, Lucy started coughing, and that was when they knew she was going to be okay.
"I was shaking, and I just held her hand and wouldn't let go until EMS was there," McAllister said. "She's a regular with us so we knew her, so it made it harder."
"I would never want anything bad to happen to her," Theresa said of her daughter. "She's such a good girl."
Since the rescue, Lucy has been back to the pool.
'I'm just so happy everything turned out the right way," Dodson said.

Celebrating Dia de los Muertos at Biblioteca Criolla
Celebrating Día de los Muertos at Biblioteca Criolla by Encouraging Peaceful Actions
Biblioteca Criolla, the Spanish language department at the Main Library, was honored to join in the first annual city-wide celebration of "Día de los Muertos Jersey City," which is invested in cultural arts, community wellness, creative healing and the promotion of peace – in response to the recent upsurge in violence in the area. This programming was held from Friday, November 1 through Thursday, November 7, with Criolla's program being held on the last day.
Día de los Muertos, or "Day of the Dead," is a Latin-American tradition that began in Mexico. It celebrates life and death, viewing it as a transition to a higher level of consciousness, while honoring those who have passed. Día de los Muertos is celebrated on November 1, in direct correlation with the Christian celebrations of "All Saints Day," and on November 2, "All Souls Day."
Creating bridges across Jersey City neighborhoods, the five participating cultural-artistic centers in this city-wide event include Creative Grove Artist & Designer Market, Ummi Village Community Garden, Simply Feel Better Self-Health Space and of course, Biblioteca Criolla of the Jersey City Free Public Library.
Beatriz Urrutia read two children's books that promoted peace and non-violence to the children during the regularly scheduled story time hour. The children enjoyed the story and sang along to their favorite children's songs.

Al RIGHTY THEN...day 3 is done and i will say I am starting to LOVE the new additions!!! Solid solid freaking CB finally....lots of good O Line BEEF...a RB and TE and some re-signings. I am still waiting for more BEEF on the O-line (can't have enough) but with the draft soon, we are looking much better. I can't wait to see what they have instore for the next few days??!! I have been quiet like a Lion in the grass, but now it is time to speak up...the new Leadership is really getting me a Warm and Fuzzy,,,,bring on that draft baby...oh and who knows who is still out there in FA with a Bolts jersey waiting to be put on!!
- Pete Spinning said... Mar 25, 2013, 5:13:00 PM
I think we have seen all we are going to see for a minute. There just isn't enough money laying around. They have done what they can, but it will probably be a few more weeks before we see anything substantial happen in FA, I think. After the market dries up, TT will pick up more depth on the cheap.. More youth movement players, most likely. There is still more time to see if other teams don't cut a player, or two, loose that we could use.
- Pete Spinning said... Mar 25, 2013, 5:20:00 PM
This signing makes me even more happy than the Woodhead signing! Please stay healthy, Cox!!!! TT has FINALLY done what I have been hoping for since 2011, and let Cason walk! Great move!!! If Cox can stay healthy, and be that physical playmaking CB we have been lacking for years... This defense will be even better than last year! This could potentially be the most important signing of this year... Maybe even more important than the draft!

text: I just went down to my friends farm to pick up some hive boxes. I brought back 9-shallow boxes with frames, and that many full size boxes. some of the shallow frames had just the piano wire, and some had the foundations that had a mouse hole in it. The large frames had some old brood, it was uncaped. There was 6-metal queen excluders, with wooden frames. the aluminum covered tops, and all the boxes were in great shape. Some boxes had new paint and were never used. I think it is a telescoping top, 1/2 inch plywood, with a hand hole in the middle? There were several of theses. Their is probaly that many more hive boxes that I couldn't bring because I was out of room. I have a full 8-foot bed on my 3/4 ton chevy, and it was full of bee equiptment. If I don't take it, he will burn it. I know I will never use all that stuff, but someone might need it. I talked to Mrs. Lamoine with Golden Bee Co. in Metarie, La. tonight. I mailed her a check last Monday a week ago. She said they were just swamped, but she would try to get it out tomorrow, or Friday. I can't wait to go get the bees with my new suit. then maybee I can start bee keeping. What do you think I need to do with all these hive foundations. Can I use the foundations with brood wax on them, are should I just order new foundations?

Accueil chaleureux et agréable.Carlo est de bons conseils et disponible.Logement et accueil à recommander
We were very pleased with the apartment, it was very clean and well furnished. In the small kitchen, everything was to make available for a snack or breakfast. The location was very good, all the buses were to be reached within 2-3 minutes and then it was in 10 minutes in the city center. Carlo was very nice and helpful and also has given us a lot of tips. If you come by car, there is no parking in front of the house, but there are 5- 10 minute walk a well-monitored car park (Via Mantova). The night costs € 25, -. That's just in Rome like this. There are also many bars and restaurants in the vicinity which are much cheaper and better than in the city, we can recommend the apartment very much.
Wir waren sehr zufrieden mit der Wohnung, sie war sehr sauber und gut eingerichtet. In der kleinen Küche war alles vorhanden für einen Snack oder ein Frühstück zu machen. Die Lage war sehr gut, alle Buslinien waren innerhalb 2-3 Minuten zu erreichen und dann war man in 10 Minuten in der Innenstadt. Carlo war sehr nett und hilfsbereit und hat uns dazu auch viele Tipps gegeben. Falls man mit dem Auto kommt, es gibt keinen Parkplatz vor dem Haus, aber 5- 10 Minuten zu Fuß gibt es ein gut überwachtes Parkhaus( Via Mantova). Die Nacht kostet € 25,--.Das ist halt in Rom so. Es gibt auch viele Bars und Restaurants in der Nähe, die viel billiger und besser sind als in der Innenstadt Wir können die Wohnung sehr empfehlen.
The owner is very helpful, in the area you can eat well and truly Italian prices. The location is not so central, but O.K.
Der Vermieter ist sehr hilfsbereit, in der Gegend kann man gut und zu wirklich italienischen Preisen essen. Die Lage ist nicht so zentral, aber o.k.
We enjoyed our stay at this apartment very much. The beds are good and fresh and it is very little noise from the streets at night. Everyone in our family, two adults and two kids age 10 and 6, slept well.
It is possible to use the kitchen for breakfast, smaller pastas and making coffee and tea.
The landlord is friendly and polite and made us feel assure that we were in good hands from the beginning of our contact. The communication in english was good. Wimdu also provided good and sufficient service.
Very nice place,, Although some improvements can be mad (for example, bed sheets, and an oven in the kitchen, missing).
Apart from That, Carlo has-been very nice with us and always willing to help.
Nice place, 20-30 minutes from the Trevi Fountain, and with good communication bus (Piazza Fiume).
We miss an oven in the kitchen and a newer sheets.
Probably we return.

Hello all, I am moving to the Tampa Bay area here in about a week and a half for a new job. What's the consensus on the duck hunting in this area? I have a boat and am willing to drive up to an hour and a half. I'm not looking for anyone's honeyholes; just somewhere to start looking.
Thanks in advance.

Please you have the nerve to talk about Snooki but at least she is taking care of her son that is more then what you are doing. I hope you have to stay in jail you need to grow up and you are a poor excuse of a mother. At least Amber took an interest in her daughter that is more then what you have ever done with Jace. Getting Breast implants is not the thing to do take care of your son thank god for your mother or otherwise Jace probably be raise by a Foster family
Posted at 10:17 AM on March 27, 2013
First of all, don't comare Snooki to Jenelle! Totally different people. I did though see on Snooki and JWOWW light something that floored me. Snooki's man told her to get out and to leave. He was keeping the baby and she had to go She complied with no hesitation. She did not even say, you are not keeping the baby! They all do questionable things. There is not one that is better
Posted at 1:41 PM on November 15, 2012
Wow, she has these tons of pictures of her and her new boyfriend, yet none of her and her SON. She shouldn't even be on the show teen MOM, because even though she gave birth to Jace, she is definitely not a mother. And the show is called Teen MOM. …. She's a teen, but not a mom. Sorry, I know the truth hurts, but it is what you make it.
Posted at 5:45 PM on November 8, 2012
shes an addict she needs help & everyone talking smack about her doesnt do anything at all if anything all this attention she gets, makes it worst. what if you had a addictive problem. would you want the same attention you guys give her. but you all probably cant even put yourself in someone elses shoes to know how it is and feels. work on your own friggen life. low lifes.
Posted at 7:57 AM on November 8, 2012
She will never grow up knowimg her mom will do it all no matter what she does. She dont need to be mom shes got one doing her job for her. Janelle is the stupidest girl in this shoow how many pics can u have making out iam suprised she aint got more kids cause to me she is way to ontop of every guy she meets man slow down and find u

The mighty Coromandel Peninsula offers holiday-making in excelsis. Blessed with bucket-loads of sunshine - lighting up its sapphire waters and warming its long stretches of beaches - its glint of gold powered its first population surge in the late 19th century.
Before succumbing to the shoreline pleasures, dip into the region's pioneering past, steeped in gold and logging, by starting your exploration in the main settlement of Thames.
Most of the period buildings can be found in Grahamstown, although the bustling heart of Thames, Pollen St, still exudes vestiges of its past.
The Thames Historical Museum is a cutie, and the Thames School of Mines and Mineralogical Museum features a collection of minerals encased in Edwardian glass.
Located on the legendary Golden Crown mine site, check out the working five-head stamper battery and the underground mine with the Goldmine Experience. Run by volunteers, this attraction was developed by former miners eager to preserve the region's gold-mining heritage.
Then take a short drive to the Kauaeranga Valley, a pretty river valley criss-crossed with walking trails, from where kauri were once felled.
If you have the stamina for an all-day or overnight tramp, the saw-tooth peaks of the Pinnacles are a major draw.
Heading north from Thames, in the summer months the narrow coastal road hugging the Hauraki Gulf is ablaze with the crimson of pohutakawas.
Coromandel Town boasts a collection of period buildings, many of which are lookalikes. Arts, crafts and cafes abound in this story-book village. Have a pint in the restored Star & Garter Hotel Saloon Bar, and immerse yourself in the history festooning its walls.
Just outside the township is Barry Brickell's Driving Creek Railway & Potteries. The ingenious potter devoted 32 years of back-breaking work to building his narrow-gauge railway track, complete with viaducts, tunnels and switchbacks.
Built primarily to supply clay for the pottery and pinewood for the kiln, this magical railway hauls you up to Barry's Eyeful Tower (designed to mimic the Bean Rock Lighthouse on the Waitemata Harbour) and its viewing deck.
Clattering on the train through rugged bush, you can see the 25,000 plantings of the native tree re-forestation programme. Slowly but surely, kauri trees are rising again.
If you're heading east to the ocean-side delights of the Coromandel, take the 42km-long 309 Rd from Coromandel Town to Whitianga.
There's the quirky recycling-themed Waterworks leisure park, the scenery of the Coromandel Ranges, Waiau Falls and its swimming hole, and best of all the Kauri Grove with its 13 towering specimens.
Fresh from its New Year holiday stampede, Mercury Bay is a red-carpet destination for water sports such as boating, kayaking, diving or simply lazing on the broad sweep of Buffalo Beach.
Catch a ferry across the harbour to walk in the footsteps of Captain Cook, who landed here in 1769. There are some enchanting walks taking in Whitianga Rock, Shakespeare's Lookout and Lonely Bay.
Afterwards, plop down at the Salt Restaurant and Bar. The seafood could not be fresher and the open-air dining overlooking Whitianga Marina is blissful.
Whitianga also boasts an extravagant geothermal pool retreat, the Lost Spring. Landscaped with a heady mix of native and tropical foliage, I lazed in the sculpted rock pools, hop-scotching from one to the next, before ordering a pool-side cocktail. Now that's what holidays are all about.
Top tipsMarina Park Luxury Apartments occupies a prime spot on the Whitianga Marina. The spacious apartments range from one to three bedrooms, and are equipped with balconies, kitchen and laundry facilities, plus a spa, pool and on-site gym. Check out the best rates at www.marinapark.co.nz.
Go Rentals operates a large fleet of vehicles across New Zealand, with handy airport and city locations. Grab a rental from Auckland Airport and be in the Coromandel within two hours. See www.gorentals.co.nz or call 0800 467 368.

The Précision Oasis collection features six subdued mellow shades, but don't be fooled, there are some stunners in here!
It's been quite awhile since I have reviewed any shades from Précision. Since 2009 in fact! They are a really great brand but not super easy to find. I've never seen them in person, but you can find them online. And the price is definitely right!
Précision has been in business for 30 years now. They have over 80 shades and are big 3-free and cruelty free.

Sandman Slim (Hardcover)
August 2009 Indie Next List
"How a book this dark can be this much fun to read is just one of many amazing things about Sandman Slim. After surviving 11 years in Hell -- literally -- Stark is ready for vengeance on the magicians who killed his girlfriend and sent him there. If he happens to avert the Apocalypse while he's doing it, that will be icing on the cake. Good Omens meets Raymond Chandler!"
— Carol Schneck, Schuler Books & Music, Okemos, MI
Supernatural fantasy has a new antihero
Life sucks, and then you die. Or, if you're James Stark, you spend eleven years in Hell as a hitman before finally escaping, only to land back in the hell-on-earth that is Los Angeles.
Now Stark's back, and ready for revenge. And absolution, and maybe even love. But when his first stop saddles him with an abusive talking head, Stark discovers that the road to absolution and revenge is much longer than you'd expect, and both Heaven and Hell have their own ideas for his future.
Resurrection sucks. Saving the world is worse.
Darkly twisted, irreverent, and completely hilarious, Sandman Slim is the breakthrough novel by an acclaimed author.
Praise For…
"If Simon R. Green wrote an episode of Dog the Bounty Hunter, it would read much like Sandman Slim – violent, vivid, non-stop action of the supernatural kind. I couldn't put it down."
-Charlaine Harris
"If Simon R. Green wrote an episode of Dog the Bounty Hunter, it would read much like Sandman Slim – violent, vivid, non-stop action of the supernatural kind. I couldn't put it down."
-Charlaine Harris
"Nicotine and octane in equal parts might come close to the high-energy buzz from Richard Kadrey's Sandman Slim. Crisp world building, recognizable and fully-realized characters, and a refreshingly unique storytelling style make for an absorbing read.Sandman Slim is my kind of hero."
-Kim Harrison
"The most hard-boiled piece of supernatural fiction I've ever had the pleasure of reading. … all confident and energetic and fresh and angry. I loved this book and all its screwed-up people."
-Cory Doctorow, author of Little Brother
"Paced like greased lightning (watch out for friction burns on your turning finger), blend the movie-ish delights of tough guy noir and such smart-mouthgore-fests as "Reanimator" and "Army of Darkness", seasoned by soupcons of Gaimanian romanticism and Koontzian sentiment."
"Sarcastic, irreverent and ridiculously enjoyable riff on the Urban Fantasy genre. … a lot like a mosh pit -- rough, exuberant, unpredictable -- and a heck of a lot of fun."
-Miami Herald
"The best B movie I've read in at least twenty years. An addictively satisfying, deeply amusing, dirty-ass masterpiece, Sandman Slim swerves hell-bent through our culture's impacted gridlock of genres…it's like watching Sergio Leone and Clive Barker co-direct from a script by Jim Thompson and S. Clay Wilson."
-William Gibson

Damn, Theon aint dead? I thought they kilt his ass!
I think it's possible that it could be Theon seeing himself. But the one thing that doesn't past the smell test with that is the Hooded Man calls him a Kinslayer. We know that Theon didn't slay his "kin" Bran or Rickon.
I'd throw my guess in that it could be Benjen Stark (I read somewhere that Martin debunked that he was Coldhands) since "A Stark Must Always be in Winterfell" and I think someone has entered through the crypts.
I wish that I could bring myself to read the books, theyre just too frickin long.
- That Jon's parents are Lyanna Stark and Rhaegar Targaryen (pretty much gospel in most parts these days)
- That Jon will be Azor Ahai reborn.
- That Dany could potentially be Jon's Nissa Nissa when it's all said and done.
For those who are wondering WTF Azor Ahai and Nissa Nissa are you can read here:
- The Weirwood paste that Bran eats to awaken his latent Weirwood seeing late in ADwD is actually made up of some of Jojen Reed. If you recall, Jojen is currently unable to be found and was pretty sick when they arrived at the caves. There's a lot of descriptions of the paste tasting like blood, looking veiny, and etc. I figure it either has parts of someone in it or is a representation that the Weirwoods are "alive".
Theon doesn't know what has happened to Bran and Rickon though. He has to assume that they are roaming around the North in the dead of winter. Its a pretty logical conclusion to think they are dead. Therefore he has to think in the back of his mind that he drove them from the safety of Winterfell and ultimately killed them.
My problem with Benjen is I believe he would've went to Castle Black first. He is far too loyal to break his oaths to the nights watch and that is exactly what he did if he is in fact in Winterfell.
Im curious man, love the story and I like to read but frick its hard to read a book after knowing whats going to happen.
Maybe I should pick up the third book but then that leads to issues itself.
Whats a Nissa Nissa? Sounds sexual
When he forged Lightbringer he was forced to temper the blade by stabbing it through the heart of his wife and only love
Did Martin explain why he was forced to do that?

edit : solution for this problem was mentioned on the first page . i look to bios but i couldnt find anything useful pls help me i dont wanna format my mint
i am using gt 540m with optimus technology. i installed bumblee project a month ago but just before installing nvidia driver today , i've deleted it from package manager. recovering my system is more important for me now than install nvidia driver
solved by myself
If you are installing the Nouveau drivers after uninstalling the Nvidia ones, be sure to delete the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file that the Nvidia driver created (or undo the changes), or else X will fail to properly load the Nouveau driver.
Install the DDX driver with the xf86-video-nouveau package.
Also make sure you have Xorg properly installed.
If you want hardware-accelerated 3D support (to run GNOME Shell or KWin's effects, for instance), install the DRI driver with the nouveau-dri package. For Arch x86_64, install lib32-nouveau-dri from the Multilib repository, as well.
this worked for me finally i get my full screen back ! and i decide to use primus for bumblebee

Bullying can take many forms: hitting or pushing (physical bullying), teasing or calling others bad names (verbal bullying). And it also involves relational forms, such as manipulating peer relationships by spreading nasty rumors, threatening to terminate friendships or excluding someone from a social group. Students who are bullied in any of these ways may suffer from depression and anxiety, and have academic problems.
In the past two decades, relational aggression has received an abundance of media attention. Books, movies and websites have portrayed girls as being cruel to one another, thus creating and reinforcing the stereotype of "mean ... Continue ReadingPosted in Specific Groups

The earlier we start, the better the outcomes. Brain scientists, educators, economists and public health experts agree that the foundation for healthy relationships begins at birth. The earlier children can adapt and develop critical social-emotional skills – like attentiveness, persistence and impulse control – the earlier they can engage in healthy social interactions with their peers.
Given the tremendous amount of social and cognitive development that occurs from birth through age 5, it is no wonder there is a growing body of ... Continue Reading

Bullying is more than a problem of one child bullying another. The power imbalance that defines bullying is also reflected in classroom social relations. Whereas those who bully are frequently considered "cool" or popular, their targets are "uncool" are typically rejected by classmates.
Those who witness bullying play a key role in reinforcing and maintaining the social imbalance. Although in studies ... Continue Reading
