Hey blue jays fans. what do you think about this season? I don't think they will contend but they definitely improved. a lot of talent in that team.
In spring training they have been really good and scoring like crazy (I know it's only ST but I do believe this team can score a lot). I would not be surprised if they won 85+ games

Even though it is highly debatable as a monetization system, the economics of "freemium" are taking over the landscape of mobile gaming. A mash-up of "free" and "premium," this model suggests the best of both worlds. But nothing's really free. The anchor of the freemium business stems from converting free users to premium in-app purchases. The built-in engagement you'll find in most mobile games of today encourages higher usage and even higher returns. In fact, a recent report notes that free-to-play games earn more than $60 per user per month. A deeper look into the economics of the ever-popular freemium model are illustrated in this infographic (below).
How to monetize mobile gaming products and services is arguably the first question that comes to mind when talking about free-to-play game development. Looking at the numbers, nearly 65% of the top 100 grossing apps in App Store were generated by the freemium business model. More or less 72% of all income from the App Store came from freemium mobile games. The study also found that the main profit drivers come from game perks like extra lives, extra features, virtual goods and personalization services.
Gaming powers-up freemium business
Gaming has taken the mobility and social spaces by storm. Out of the 25 revenue-generating apps noted in the infographic, 22 are gaming applications. All of the top 5 revenue-generating games in the App Store are free-to-play. The numbers are greatly influenced by avid gamers who play multiple times per day. In 2011, 8% of this group spent more than $50 for gaming apps, while 12% and 14% cashed out $26-$50 and $11-$25 respectively. Nearly 30% paid $1-$10.
In-App purchases
Avid gamers have shown their power to monetize through in-app purchases. The same study revealed that 51% of avid gamers have made at least one in-app purchase for the following reasons: access new features or levels, improve performance or speed up progress and personalize or decorate characters. The numbers will continue to rise and consequently, in-app purchases are could outpace pay-per-download revenues this year, according to ABI Research.
Mark Beccue, senior analyst for mobile services, shares his insights on this trend, noting how Google and developers can make or break the positive prediction on gaming in-app purchases, saying,
"As a revenue model, in-app purchase is very limited today. The vast majority of current in-app revenue is being generated by a tiny percentage of people who are highly-committed mobile game players. We don't believe the percentage of mobile game players making in-app purchases will grow significantly, so for in-app purchase revenues to grow, mobile developers other than game developers must adopt it."
Helping developers to further monetize cross-platform apps through direct carrier billing, PaymentOne introduced PayOne HTML5 API. This tool will manage a more effective payment course for developers and monetize their offerings athwart all platforms and devices by way of a secured and fast "charge it to my mobile phone bill" payment method.
Social Mobile Gaming
With Zynga facing global rivals and diversifying its services beyond Facebook, social mobile gaming is on a roll. Its $1 billion IPO valuation says a lot how the industry's luck favored a barely 5-year old company. Late last year Electronic Arts acquired KlickNation to keep up with the industry's quickening pace. Zynga posted a strong fourth quarter in 2011, amidst massive net loss estimated to be at $435 million. Social gaming is also fuelling Peak Games interest as they acquire a Saudian company, Kammelma, dominate two largest emerging markets in the world at present: Turkey and MENA (Middle East North Africa).

I just purchased a used 2000 Saturn LS2 (V6 Engine, Twin Cam, 24 Valve) and I have a problem already. The vehicle has an overheating problem which is caused from oil getting into the coolant system. Usually it's the other way around but somehow it's in the coolant system opposed to the coolant getting into the engine.Can someone please help me with trying to figure out what's going on. My mechanic is kinda unsure so I'm just hoping someone who's mechanically inclined can help me out. I greatly appreciate it.
That is a tough one... usually it'd be something like a bad head gasket or head that leaves access from the coolant passages to flow into the cylinders, but oil pressure wouldn't likely surpass the coolant pressure.
----------When life throws you a curve, downshift and take it vigorously.Pheobe's@478,000-ish miles. (RIP original engine 475k)Youtube
My guess is that you have a hole in you coolant pressure line. This causes the pressure to drop and thus the Oil has more pressure then then Coolant, forcing it into the Coolant container. Also check for loose piping that may have come undone, it's a ten year old car. And look for coolant and oil inside your engine, this may be a sign of a leakage or may show you a trouble spot. And the best thing you can do is find a better mechanic. Good Luck!
____________________2007 Honda Civic Si Sedan2003 Mazda Protégé5
Thanks so much to the both of you. Very vital information. And your right there is oil and coolant in the engine that has caused it to develop a brownish glue looking like substance.
Get a new mechanic.

At left is this year's keynote speaker, attorney and author Guy C. Fraker, with committee chair Sonni Williams, President James Kane, President-Elect Craig Young and committee member Arthur Kingery. Mr. Fraker practices in Bloomington and is a leading authority on Abraham Lincoln's career as a circuit-rider in the old Eighth Judicial Circuit. He is the author of Lincoln's Ladder to the Presidency: The Eighth Judicial Circuit. Special thanks go to PCBA member John Bathke, at right, who sang the national anthem, and the Color Guard of the 182nd Airlift Wing who presented colors. Also at the banquet Jeffrey Krumpe, Miller, Hall & Triggs, was awarded the Distinguished Community Service Award for his long-time involvement with CASA. Legal Assistance for Tornado VictimsProject coordinator, Michael Gifford (at left), has reported, "The PCBA's Tornado Victim Outreach Committee's legal clinic was held at Five Points in Washington, Saturday, January 18th. We enjoyed tremendous support from our volunteer attorneys and Five Points. The following deserve a large "Thanks!" for the services they provided: Sandra Crow, Prairie State Legal Services, participating attorneys were Jennifer Bonesteel, Mary Corrigan, Ken Davies, Spencer Daniels, Angela Evans, John Heil, Jr., Ambrose McCall, Cathy Molchin, Chis Nichols, Sonya Pasquini, Karen Stumpe, Jerry Tuffentsamer and Kevin Wolfe. Attorneys from Caterpillar, Inc. were Valerie Demaret-Fleming, Darren Greca, Daniel Marcinak, Terrance (Terry) McWhorter, Ali Nellos and Gina Vollmer. Paralegal Heather Feeney was the Caterpillar coordinator."Illinois Joining ForcesMany local attorneys have been providing services to local military personnel and veterans through efforts largely coordinated by local attorney Michael Lied of Howard and Howard Attorneys PLLC. The PCBA hopes that by joining IJF, it can institutionalize Mr. Lied's efforts to find and match service members to an attorney who can assist them, while empowering a greater number of service members with legal access and knowledge. This month we would like to recognize attorney Jennifer Bonesteel of McCall Law Office for assisting reviewing a veteran's family law matter. Although she was unable to be of assistance, we appreciate the time spent. Anyone interested in helping with this program, may contact Mike Lied at firstname.lastname@example.com or you may contact the PCBA at email@example.com.

Mark your calendar today!Fitness, Health & Wellness Committee: Member Link to WellnessBy Ron Hanna, FHW Committee ChairWork Life Balance in Law: Lawyers have all consuming jobs -- assisting clients at the worst times in their lives, juggling multiple client matters, working to fix or prevent serious problems, managing staff, managing money and running businesses. Many lawyers also have a deep commitment to public service and donate many hours to pro bono services, service on boards and volunteering in the community. Is the ability to balance professional demands with health goals and family time a myth? The FHW Committee wants you to take a moment and think about what is most important to you and what you should do with your valuable time. Check out some thoughts and suggestions at: http://home.innsofcourt.org/for-members/current-members/the-bencher/recent-bencher-articles/novemberdecember-2012/lessons-from-lawyers-achieving-work-life-balance.aspx http://lawyerist.com/lawyer-mindset-balance/FHW Member Tip: It's easy to fall into the trap of doing nothing but working, sleeping, and looking after the kids, but over the long haul you will find yourself on the road to burnout. Make sure you carve out a few hours in the week for exercise and outside interests. You and those around you will benefit if you avoid sacrificing your own needs.Lawyer Referral Service (LRS)Special thanks go to the following attorneys James LeFante, Ryan McCracken and Richard Steagall on a case they settled returning attorney referral fees to the PCBA in the amount of $7,800.

We welcome new volunteers and send a huge thank you to those who have donated their time in the past! The Mock Trial Invitational would not happen without volunteers like you, who have made this program a success for 30 years. This year's Mock Trial problem is based on the 1938 radio broadcast of "War of the Worlds", which caused fear and panic among some listeners who did not realize it was a fictional dramatization of a Martian invasion of Earth. You can review the complete problem, the Mock Trial Rules, and guidelines for volunteers on the website of the ISBA's Law-Related Education for the Public Committee at: http:// www.isba.org/teachers/mocktrial.

The awards are coming up, and I want to make sure that all your hours are considered. Only hours on closed cases are considered. Thank You!Noteworthy CasesThere are two interesting cases closed this month:Ambrose McCall, Hinshaw & Culbertson, represented a husband and wife who had entered into an extremely unfavorable Contract for Deed. Their payment included an amount for taxes and insurance. The clients applied for assistance in obtaining new windows for the home, and were denied because the taxes had not been paid on the home for 2 consecutive years; despite the fact the clients had made the payments. The client came to us for help. Attorney McCall filed suit and the Contract for Deed was cancelled and voided. The clients were able to relocate thanks to the help of Ambrose McCall.Attorneys Kevin Schneider and Jason Story, Westervelt, Johnson, Nicoll & Keller, assisted a non-profit organization in amending the Articles of Incorporation and in changing their name. This was necessary to better describe their services and to have the ability to apply for much needed grants. This was a small organization, but they did a lot of good for other low income people in our community, but lacked resources to retain a private attorney to review their documents. The organization is now in a position to apply for grants and other resources. LegalEase Newsletter

The article says that the use of the Stone Theme in Chamber of Secrets is considered thematically incorrect because William Ross adapted the themes--I don't think this is an accurate statement, as it has generally been said that Williams quite strictly guided Ross in adapting the themes, telling him exactly how to use them.
I think that the Stone Theme should be changed to a General Mystery Theme, and the line about Ross taken out completely.
220.127.116.11 03:30, October 26, 2009 (UTC)
- You are right! The theme is clearly The Stone Theme in PS, but it's more like a Mystery/Voldemort Theme in CoS. User:Lilleby O7:77, October 26, 2009 (UTC)

I'm sure this has been discussed at one point or another, but I'm curious what you guys think. My buddy and I recently debated which is more difficult to hunt, turkeys or deer. My vote was for deer, for a variety of reasons, but # 1 is because the scent component can stop things before they even begin.
What do you guys think? Turkey or Whitetail?

We have both the Craftsman 18v and the 19.2v battery powered tools. It seems like the 18 v batteries last a lot longer in life-years longer to be exact.
Both are craftsman tools-saws, sawzall, lights, drills-they were purchased in kits with carrying cases.
The saws are mighty handy when removing boards in a cutout situation, nice to be able to use when no A.C is available.
I do not have any experience with all the name brands or higher quality tools, but the craftsman is just fine for the occasional need.

Your reply about replacement batteries... is that what you were discussing in another thread?
With the DeWalt & Makita, you can still buy the old batteries. Some of the other brands may not support their product a few years down the road.
The batteries last longer if you use them, compared to letting them sit around the garage.
Lowes has smokin deals right now thru 12/1. On the first page the B&D set I bought. List price Lowes $159.00 on sale for $60.00 24 volt set. Mine is 18 volt. They even have the better name brands marked way down.

Hello Everyone!
Just came over from a couple other forums.
One of the "other" forums began requiring huge sums of money in order to remain a member, so, well, I did not renew my membership.
The other one seems to be getting a little strange as of late, so, here I am.
I'm looking forward to a great summer online, at the range, and buzzing around Montana's events this year.
I drive an ice cream truck (as well as make the ice cream and serve it retail) for Virginia City Creamery in Virginia City, Montana.
More to come.
Good morning everyone!
Thanks for the warm welcome, everyone! Nice to be here! I can see by glancing over the posts and replies that there is a treasure house of good information here to be had for the asking! I'm looking forward to gaining and sharing experiences and technical information!
I'm recently having a few questions regarding the .44 special, but will post them on a more appropriate thread! Thanks again for making me feel welcome!

I was wondering if some of you might know what they mean. I mean, the Mythosaur is cool, but if anotherone has a cooler meaning, then I'll by all means get that one. I'm brand new to the forums by the way, so, hello all.

Microsoft Raises Its Licensing Fees to Cash in on Bring-Your-Own-Device

BYOD fees for "user CAL" licenses of Sharepoint, Lync, etc. will jump 15 percent
Microsoft Corp. (
) has announced a change that's good news for its investors and bottom line, but likely bad news for business clients.
The change affects Microsoft's so-called client-access license (CAL). If you own a business, you purchase a CAL from Microsoft, which allows your on-site employees to use software such as:
Bing Maps Server
Core Suite
Enterprise Suite
Exchange Server Standard or Enterprise
Lync Server Standard or Enterprise
Project Server
SharePoint Server Standard or Enterprise
System Center 2012 Client Management Suite
System Center Configuration Manager
System Center Endpoint Protection
Visual Studio TFS
Windows Multipoint Server
Windows Server
Windows Server RDS, RMS, Terminal Services
There are
two flavors of CALs
-- User CALs, which allow a unique user to connect any device they own, and the Device CALs, which associate a per device license fee. Previously Microsoft had set these two licensing options to the same price.
User CALs (left) are the preferred solution for BYOD users, versus Device CALs (right).
That was great news for enterprise users, as one of the hottest trends right now in IT is the bring-your-own-device (BYOD) craze. BYOD means that one user may not only connect from both a work machine (say a work laptop), but also personal machines they own (say their personal tablet and laptop). If a business was to buy a Device CAL license, it'd have to buy three licenses for those devices, but with the User CAL, the employee had the flexibility to use any of those devices, while the employer was on the hook for only a single license fee.
But the deal is about to get a little less sweet, as Microsoft has announced that it will be bumping the price of its various User CALs by 15 percent. The price change will take affect Dec. 1. However, large customers that have Enterprise Agreements, Enterprise Subscription, Open Value Subscription, and Open Value Perpetual will be able to hang on to their current pricing until the end of their contract.
Ultimately this seems like a smart move for Microsoft. After all, a 15 percent premium User CAL is still the cheaper option for enterprise customers, if the average user connects with 2 or more devices. But the move could also backfire, forcing some smaller clients to free, open source alternatives. However, making such a switch can be costly and the end result may be inferior software, in some cases.
For those reasons it seems unlikely that Microsoft will see mass defections, even if it may be offering up an irritating change to its business clients.

Labor Day, should it be changed?
Original post made by Parent, Another Palo Alto neighborhood, on Aug 27, 2007
This idea has been brewing around in my mind for a while. As we busy ourselves in Palo Alto for back to school tomorrow, for four days and then a long weekend which is now really quite defunct as a time to go away, moving the holiday to August would give us the psychological readiness we are used to. The four day week may be a good idea for the first week of school for many reasons, but two four day weeks much make it more difficult for the administration. Even the local stores would probably do really well with Labor Day preceeding the school year and those parents who work full time have the benefit of the long weekend as the time to do all the back to school shopping. For those who want a last weekend away, the extra day would make it more meaningful. Even those who celebrate Labor Day in its true meaning, would probably celebrate more wholeheartedly if it wasn't back in the school year.
Many people who don't have children in school would probably bemoan the change out of traditional reasons, and there is nothing wrong with being traditional. I am just looking at this in a more practical sense and feel that my family would definitely enjoy having school start after Labor Day and getting down to business without the impending day off and the feel that school starts too early.
If we can't change the school year, maybe we should change the holiday.

This idea, if I didn't make myself clear, would have to be at a national level not a state or even PA level. Labor Day is a national holiday and would require to be changed at the national level by the federal government. However, it has happened before that national public holidays have been changed both in this country and others. It is no reflection on the holiday just when to celebrate in terms of how life is changing the optimum day to celebrate.

The real question is whether the summer vacation period should be contracted, as the teachers' unions, and many professional educators, would like to see happen, or should it be kept at its traditional date (at or near Labor Day).
There is backlash from parents, because it interferes with vacation plans, sports tournaments, etc. I don't have kids in the system any more, but if I did, and I had specific plans, I would live out the traditional summer, even if it meant starting school a week (or two) late.
In the end, the school system belongs to the parents and taxpayers, so we need to decide what is best for us. If the parents want a shorter summer break, so be it; if not, then they will vote with their absence.

So how would I know when to put away my white bucks and boater if not for Labor Day?

We have had four days of school. For my family, this has been a very long week and we have not got into routine yet. Some sports have started and some have not. However, I would really like it if Monday was a regular Monday and not a day off. Today feels like summer break again, the kids didn't get out of bed til mid morning, no one wants to do anything and they all complain they are bored. I would rather that at this stage we had some homework and some sports games and then we could really feel that we were back to normal rather than this half and half.
Whether the calendar says August or September, I don't know. But, I do wish we could start school and get into routine straight away.

Our day at Epcot started off with some rides. We commence with Spaceship Earth...a ride within the Epcot "ball". We went up and around viewing the various displays. Once we were done we were amazed at the amount of stuff we had seen inside. The next stop was the Universe of Energy. A ride back in time to the age of the Dinosaur and the making of one of our energy sources, then flying forward to the modern era of solar and wind generating power. We then visited Mission: SPACE, where we chose to join the Orange Team for some intense training for a mission to Mars. Our team, flying our rocket ship to the red planet
Back on earth we end up at the Test Track. Replacing some Crash Test Dummies we test out some new GM models to ensure the vehicles are road worth for the general public. Driving down some of the worse roads imaginable, that is, until I remember the roads I've been down during my travels. Avoidance manoeuvres...high speed banking and crash barrier testing. The vehicles barely passed but we survived to drive around the real world.
We calm things down with a ride under the Sea with Nemo and Friends. Aboard the "clamobile" we join Nemo, Dori and Crush for a visit to the world of the ocean. We walk over to The Land to get "fastpass" tickets to Soarin', a hang gliding experience. The line ups are quite long and with the fastpass ticket we can get through quicker at a specified time.
With time to kill we head to the World Showcase. In my other blogs I've talked about my visit there on New Year's Eve. Certain Pavillions have cultural shows to showcase their country. We make a stop in Mexico for a Grand Fiesta cruise with the three caballeros...Donald Duck, Panchito and Jos� Carioca. Outside the China Pavillion we stop and watch the Dragon Legend Acrobats in mind boggling feats of body twisting movements
We stop for something to eat at the American Adventure. Our final stop of the day is at the French Pavilion. There we watch a 20 minute movie showcasing the French Countryside. Having been to France as a teenager this reminds me of my desire to return to Europe and visit so many other places there. We grab some patisserie in one of the French establishments. Katrine, who hasn't been feeling well most of the day, is looking progressively worse. We decide that maybe it is time to leave even though we haven't done the Soarin' ride, seen the remaining Pavilions, and were hoping to stick around for the IllumiNations light display.
Day 2 at Disney was at Disney-MGM. There were a lot more people at Disney at the end of the week then there were at Universal at the beginning of the week. Quite early the park was packed like sardines. We start off on Hollywood Boulevard and the Great Movie Ride...where we travelled through classic film scenes and Hollywood moments. Next up was Sounds Dangerous with a wacky audio show in complete darkness. With the number of people in the park we knew early that we wouldn't be able to see everything we wanted.
We stop and eat the sandwiches we had made then go see the Honey, I Shrunk the Kids Movie Set Adventure. After having been watered down by the sneeze of a giant dog we fight the crowds to get to the Disney-MGM Backlot Tour. That finished we find out that we won't be able to make it to the Indiana Jones attraction for the allotted time of our Fastpass tickets. The Lights, Motors, Action! Extreme Stunt Show is about to start soon anyways so we follow the mass of people to the grandstands for that. Check out the video for this amazing stunt show.
There were 2 rides left at the far end of the park that we hadn't been to yet. From the line-ups we knew we would have to chose one or the other. The choices were the Rock 'n' Roller Coaster and the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror. We walk to the Rollercoaster and after talking it over decide we've done quite a few rollercoaster's this week and we can hear the screams of the people on the Tower of Terror. We get in line there for what must have been at least an hour of zigzagging towards the front of the line
It's almost time for the first Fantasmic light show. We decide to watch this show instead of the later one then grab a bite to eat outside the park. See the video of the beginning of this show. We had seen the Fantasmic show in Disneyland a few years ago and I thought that one was better. Maybe we just had better seats, but the experience was different.
We stop at Chili's for a late night supper. Then head back to the Resort to finish packing as checkout is early and we have to get all our stuff into the trailer so that I can move it to the campground.
Saturday the 22nd
So that was our three days at Disney. With the exception of the Tower of Terror and the Stunt Show we found Universal a better park for an older crowd. The volume of people at Disney also impacted our perception of the fun factor. Maybe going back to Disney when there are less people might change our view but we thought Universal was the better park.

Here are the pictures you've all been waiting for!
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Here are the pictures you've all been waiting for!
Eat, quilt, sleep, repeat
and of course big brother Mick
Eat, quilt, sleep, repeat
Isa just melted my heart with that gorgeous smile.. they are both beautiful Anael thank you for sharing
Is that Lemon Squares I see Mick eating ?????
Thanks Mirabelle!
No though he had a bite but didn't like it much. He's having a sloppy Joe with cheese. My DS, who doesn't like lemon had a piece of the Lemon Square and would have had more if there were more
Eat, quilt, sleep, repeat
I am going grocery shopping tomorrow and have lemons on my list, will be making it on the weekend, hope mine turns out as nice as yours and QuiltE's...
Anael, thank you for starting my day out with a big smile and a happy heart! What beautiful pics of "our" 3 grand babies!
Imagine all the people living life in peace...(John Lennon 1940-1980)
Love those pictures of the Sew Grand babies...and older brother, too.
Maybe OKsewGlad can get her camera working for more pictures of her Sew Grands to show us before they all leave tomorrow!! children grow up all too quickly and we need more photos!!!
Jeanie, I went back a hundred on pages and came forward trying to find you photo and model of your table; no luck. Then I went to the Wal Mart site and tried it there without success so will have to wing it at the Wal Marts in the area. The photo of how the cutting mat was laying on the table helped.
Mirabelle, if I said North, my dh would say South; I want to trade his GMC (2004 4 x 4) truck in on a new vehicle and he wants to trade my (2000 Town and Country) Chrysler in on a new vehicle. His has the greatest value to trade in and is newer but more things are wrong with his than mine. Since My 'buying' of all the sewing machines and tables, there is no argument 'cause there is not any extra monies until next Spring, or Summer. Meanwhile I hope to get the sewing room going this next month.
Dublb, when we sold our home in CC to our daughter's friend, Dallas and her dh, came down and packed up our big house in a couple of weekends...or rather, Dallas packed it up. She worked so fast, I just sat in a chair and watched her take one room at a time and pack everything into boxes. Never did find all of it again, but she sure packed us up in a hurry, (even the pennies and loose change was in some boxes!) so they could move in. It remained packed while we survived in a rental on Padre Island for a horrid year, before retiring and moving up North almost on top of the Iowa/Missouri border. It had been home for almost 20 years and was so hard to leave. I kept my sewing machine out and sewed quilts on the dining room table that year on Padre Island.
Anael..I love the pics of your little ones. How they have grown to be out and about to DG's house! Lucky you.
QuiltE...no surprises with those ribbons. Keep up the good work.
Dubib...small boxes are good. The closing is in just a couple of days. Will you be painting or anything in the new house before you move in? So many decisions when moving. I think that's why I always hated it so. Can't take everything.
Mirabelle...It's a good thing that your DH is concerned about your shoulder and is reining you in a little. He LOVES you.
Jeanie...do happy that your home now feels clean even if it is a little empty. Thanks for the pictures of the tables. I think I will wind up with the sewsteady adjustable one instead of an entirely new table. I will never have all of the room I really want for quilting a large quilt I might as well face it.
I've been working on the Aiming 4 Accuracy quilt along and have learned a lot which is crossing over to other quilting. I'm posting a pic of how far along I am. The colors aren't very true but it gives you an idea. The quilt is for my daughter and the main prints are all roses. I'm using the green as my constant and the cream as a second constant. I wanted something neutral to help the prints play together well. Enjoy.
GardenGal, you have more skills than I; I joined but have not sewn a stitch. Could not download the 'chart' and make it work; dismayed at the last instruction page number four some 17 pages long that wouldn't print out for me. Some 500 people have joined, so I guess that puts me the bottom of the heap where I may peacefully remain. Michele Foster has some interesting designs, but beyond my abilities. Happy that you can sew along with the best of them, and I wish you lots of time, and luck in finishing the project.

Easy going. Any problem, comfortable. 1 minute walking to the underground station.
Quick and fast Check In.
Great location, nice bathroom, wifi, nice kitchen, but toilet upstairs not very convenient. I had one strange situation when one man pulled a door handle of our room when he thought noone was inside. After this I haven't met anyone from staff to share with this so I write it here.
For a short stay totally sufficient
Clean and warm place to stay in London, near tube- and busstations. Nice room, living room, kitchen. pretty cheap.
Hi Hester, i was very satisfied of my journey at the Bethnal green road room.
It was nice and warm and the location in the east-end ol Londonisvery convenient!
I shall comeback sometime,
It really was a last minute life saver and I am totally impressed both by the service and the host. Sincere Thanks and I am now a huge fan who will use this almost every week as I travel a lot!!
Clean room, warm and everything that the host promised. genuinely good and much appreciated.
the flat was good, my room was very squashy but usable. if you book very early, keep in contact with her about your room. one shower for about 10 people = bad. the location was great everything close by. and a firework display. no tv in the front room was a bit disappointing but we used a laptop and sat on the sofas to relax. our room was on the 2nd floor, not good for mother with a walking stick.
The photo of the room on the site does not portray the less than acceptable standard of the room we were given. The photo was not the room we believed we had booked. Whilst we appreciated the fact it was a budget room and not ensuite, we did not appreciate the fact we would have to climb a step of 18" to get to the toilet which then could only be used by sitting sideways due to the lack of space to the front and side (lack of space being 4" or less). An alternative toilet was available but down a flight of stairs and through the kitchen to the rear of the building.
Security was a joke (front door key dangling behind letter box) and individual rooms secured by a Poundshop padlock which would generally be used on suitcases. Once in the room the door could only be secured by what can be described as a cheap flimsy bolt.
Fixed bars across the bedroom window meant the only apparant means of escape was down two flights of stairs to the front door - in our view a potential fire trap.
Whilst the view from the window was not of great importance we would have preferred not to have been greeted with a view of rubbish and empty paint pots.
A bonus was the fact that there was a PC with internet access which we made use of to make another booking for far better accommodation at very similar cost.
nice flat, the rooms on the street side are a bit noisy but very good place to stay, well situated and with all comodities

The Automobile Association believes motorists have good reason to feel ripped off when they fill up with gas.
The price of a litre of unleaded petrol has crept up again, and currently it is sitting at about $2.20.
At the same time the New Zealand dollar is trading at five-year highs against the greenback, cracking US$0.85 to the dollar last week.
The AA's Mark Stockdale said prices rose three cents a litre last week, but there was no explanation.
"It's very worrying.
"We're just a couple of cents off our record high for the price of petrol, and I think motorists will really be quite confused as to why fuel prices are so high when our exchange rate is also so high."
Mark Stockdale said hopefully one company will decide to drop its price, and the rest will follow.

First stop after a couple of grey and cool days in Montevideo (again!) was La Paloma which was around 3 1/2 hours east by bus. I got chatting with a girl from Israel and we decided to share a HUGE pizza and then go to the cinema - a bit like going back to the dark ages in that you could hear the film reel going round - the sound quality was pretty poor but nonetheless I enjoyed seeing Colin Firth in action in The King's Speech. This guy has to be one of the most versatile actors on the planet...
The next day (10th) I walked to the next resort called La Pedrera along the beach and back stopping for a cool off in the sea now and again, tough life eh..
After a run along the beach the next morning I got on the bus again, this time heading for Barra la Valisas where I met Lucia from the Montevideo couchsurfing group. I stayed with her and her parents in their friends' beach home for 3 nights, nice! A very relaxing 3 days, beach in the morning, lunch and a siesta in the afternoon and back to the beach late afternoon followed by food and wine/beer of course. Although one of the days I decided I needed to do some exercise, and so walked from Valisas to Cabo Polonio which is a pretty tough walk across the dunes in the heat of the day (as I set off a bit late), but it took around 2 1/2 hours to walk 10km as I was motoring... CP is even smaller than Valisas and can't be reached by road. You have to leave your car at the main road car park and take a special jeep across the sands to the cape. I did that journey on the way back so to avoid the walk back across the dunes. There was a huge queue for the jeeps at around 6.30pm but there are many coming and going to cope with the demand.
On the Friday night in Valisas a couple of bands hit town (quite an event I believe) so we bought some beer (usually sold in litre bottles) and sat and watched under the stars
On the Saturday night we watched an AMAZING sunset but sod's law I didn't have my camera with me at the time, so we have to make do with Sunday's sunset instead, not half as good...
On the 14th I took another bus to the resort of Punta del Diablo which is getting pretty close to the Brazilian border. Another long beach walk, this time returning from Santa Teresa national park and the Fortaleza. That was as far as I decided to go before turning back and heading to Montevideo once again...

Secure coding is often an afterthought
from being read slolen, or destroyed by malicous people and processes. Security cannot be added as an afterthought, it must be built and restitant to attack. There is usually a big push to get an application out the door and devilered and it takes some strong persusion to build in security from the start. What ways are others out there using to persuade business and government to build in secure coding. Sometimes , I have noticed that using FUD - Fear Uncertainty and Doubt can be effective, but that should really be necessasary.
Tell me what you think!

Pushing the popular Jak and Daxter world in new directions through the eyes of Daxter, the title will complete the Jak and Daxter story and allow players to find out how Daxter came to free Jak at the beginning of Jak II ™. A no-compromise platformer with a full-featured moveset, comparable graphic capabilities and incredible animation detail, Daxter takes players on a classic platform game thrill ride.
Daxter takes the Jak and Daxter franchise in a whole new direction, taking place during the two years Daxter searches for Jak, who was imprisoned during the events that led to the start of Jak II ™. Daxter, now on his own in an unfamiliar place, quickly realizes that being small and furry won't help his chances of survival. To help stamp out a mysterious metalbug infestation, Daxter takes on a job as a pest exterminator, enabling him to explore parts of Haven City in an effort to collect the clues that will lead him to Jak. But Daxter will soon discover that he'll get more excitement from his job than he originally bargained for.
Daxter allows gamers to play from his animal perspective, chronicling his back-story during the two years spent alone in Haven City and answering the questions of how he managed to free Jak.
A special "Animal" mode allows Daxter to climb walls and creep up on enemies. As Daxter is an ottsel and not a human, players will have a unique moveset with agile abilities, as Daxter can crawl on all fours, fit in small places and maneuver vehicles.
One of the first games to offer PSP and PlayStation 2 interoperability, game via USB connection. Gamers can use their PSP to unlock drivers, vehicles and graphics for Jak X: Combat Racing or connect to their PS2 to open up secret features in Daxter .
Daxter's swatter and bug spray gun offers unique action mechanics across numerous seamless environments. Utilize the spray gun to hover around in the levels and add another dimension to classic platforming gameplay.
The graphical style stays true to the Jak and Daxter universe, as players will get to explore locations unseen in Jak II and Jak 3™ .
Players can join Daxter inside his most secret dreams where he finally gets to act out his fantasies of becoming the hero he always has pretended to be. When he falls asleep on the job, players can enter his dreams in special bonus levels and see him act out his ego-driven fantasies showing off his unique attack mechanics.

This site is dedicated to all health solutions out there and I plan on expanding this projects in years to come!
But first I decided to share my weight loss journey in this site as I believe it's a BIG challenge for all humanity and I firmly believe that showcasing a case study fully documented will be inspiration and motivation to anyone who wants to lose weight.
>>Follow my weight loss journey HERE!
In the past I have tried tons of ways to lose ways but the thing that always makes me get back my lost pounds are those temptations that the family (I still live with my family, something which I really want to change even as I am 22 years old) buys so the temptation is always there and eating junk food is the #1 problem I face in losing weight. But fortunately enough, this time around I decided to create this blog as a future project but as well as a public journal of my weight loss adventure and I decided to do this as it will be my motivation to finally reach my goal.
I am a 22 years old mexican guy that suffers from obesity but I am willing to do my very best this time around to achieve my perfect health and proof that a willing force is the best weapon against any barrier. Where there's a will there's a way, and those wise words will be my leader in this journey!
I believe it WILL be tough but I WON'T GIVE UP, I will do my very best to achieve my goal, even if it takes months!
I have to say that a few weeks ago (around early May 2015) I went to Hong Kong to incorporate my business and there I met this guy (which I got to know from the Internet) called Club, who was a really cool guy that showed me tons of places there but one of the best impressions I got was that there were NO fat people! Everyone was either fit or simply normal but not fat! (There were tons of cute girls too, though! Haha) Seriously, going to Hong Kong was an extremely inspiring experience as well as motivation to be fit as well as a very good experience for being the first time out of Mexico on my very own!
So, in Hong Kong when I went with this agency to help me with registrying the company and opening the bank account, there was this girl working there who was really cute but I just couldn't find the courage to actually make a move! Yea I had to talk to her about the company and everything but I just couldn't find the courage to actually go take the long shot and actually TRY something! I know, I know it may sound funny or whatever but I learned I didn't have confidence in myself and though a lot of people out there says that confidence comes from the inside and not the outside, I believe that being fit is a BIG factor in self confidence and that was one of the two BIGGEST motivations for me to take responsibility and finally become fit!
I want to be the very best of myself to be able to be confident in myself and be able to take all kind of oppotunities that cross my way, as well as creating new ones! There are tons of times where we let pass a beautiful woman in our lives because we are not confident enough to act! This and tons of more examples, in my humble opinion, are opportunities that cross our way and we don't take action! There's always the chance for us to create our own opportunities but there are simply times that opportunities knock on our doors and we are not even polite enough to let them in! In my situation I believe if I were confident at the time I met this girl I would have made a move but whatever the outcome would have been at least I would have tried!
It will take a lot of effort to become my very best but at the same times I believe it will be a VERY interesting journey!
If you want to follow me on my weight loss and self confidence journey, stay tuned as I will start tomorrow Sunday June 6th, 2015!
Let the rest of your life be the best of your life!

Murphy is at best a situational WR. Why you didn't include Randle in the thread title is beyond me.
PS: Myers is an awful run blocker. Downgrade the run game.
5) Doesn't mean **** if they're all healthy if we don't do anything about the offensive line
Murphy isn't all of a sudden becoming a receiving God. IMHO Randell and JJ will contribute more than Murphy. Murphy will be used but cool your jets a bit,he contributed little to the Panthers last season and Newton could of used some help in the receiving department
Our Oline needs improvement opening holes in our run game. They are pretty decent protecting Eli in the pass game.
Beyond personnel, I think we have to tweak our offense to match the adjustments that the league made to our scheme. Ravens coach said he wasn't really worried about our offense doing much before the game and we didn't do jack. I want to see more intermediate and short options. The deep ball is to hit or miss to be relied on as much as we do. When Eli plays like he did in 2011 we're unstoppable, but 2011 level of performance is not what we've come to expect from Eli. I expect him to be better than in 2012, but not like 2011.
We just gotta believe in Eli everyone. Just believe. The o-line will improve. The defense can't be worse than last year. They will be a force this year. We'll all come together and win the Super Bowl at Giants stadium. We can do it. Eli's gonna win one for his new baby on the way. (Congrats Eli.) I believe in you guys. So does everyone else. Just win it already. Lol. To the New York Giants. ... Super Bowl 48 Champions!!!!! Hell yeah!!! Cheers.
P.S. f*** the Jets. We own MetLife. =Giants stadium.

New Zealand would be "out in a war zone with a pea-shooter" if it intervened on a large scale in the foreign exchange market, says Finance Minister Bill English.
Speaking to reporters after appearing before Parliament's finance and expenditure select committee yesterday, English said the Government was not prepared to take the huge risks involved in large-scale speculation on the exchange rate with taxpayer dollars.
"Some countries are, like Switzerland, building up a huge position on their exchange rate and their taxpayers will take a bath if it goes wrong," English said.
"We are just not prepared to take that kind of risk. We are a small country."
Intervention by the Swiss National Bank since September 2011 to defend an exchange rate of 1.20 Swiss francs against the euro has seen its holdings of foreign exchange expand to the equivalent of three-quarters of Swiss gross domestic product.
Scaled down to New Zealand size that would be about $150 billion.
English said those advocating a lower dollar had to demonstrate there was a way to choose what the exchange rate should be and how to keep it there without significant cost to the rest of the community.
"International experience is that is difficult, if not impossible."
He had raised hackles among Opposition MPs, who are running an inquiry into the manufacturing sector, by saying: "What they are telling you is that they want to cut the real wages of their workers, because that is the other side of the equation. No one is sticking up for the workers in this debate, because the exchange rate underpins their living standards."
English had been pressed by Greens co-leader Russel Norman: "Most of our trading partners are lowering the value of their currency using unorthodox mechanisms like quantitative easing or whatever. And the result is our currency is overvalued, which is having a dramatic effect on the tradeables sector ... It is being devastated. That's what manufacturers are telling us."
English said there was nothing New Zealand could do to affect the monetary policies being run by much bigger economies with much bigger economic problems.
He also questioned the exit strategy for the unorthodox measures being undertaken.
"They are getting well down a road that no one has ever been down and they have no idea how to get back. And that is going to be the challenge of the next few years in most developed countries."
Norman cited a recent speech by the outgoing chairman of Britain's Financial Services Authority, Lord Turner, in which he argued that printing money to finance the government deficit should not be taboo just because 99 years out of 100 it was a very bad idea.
English said that Britain, like Japan, regarded itself as being in extreme circumstances.
"They are patients in an emergency room and New Zealand by comparison is out training for a triathlon."
To Norman's suggestion that the economy faces a "nasty hard landing" when rising interest rates trigger a downturn in house prices, English said interest rates would rise at some stage.
"And that may well be a good thing. There are people arguing right now that the fact that savings rates are flattening out and house prices are rising tells you interest rates are too low and why doesn't the Reserve Bank governor get on with lifting them? Manufacturers would probably disagree with that."
Norman accused English of failing in a key task the Government had set itself on taking office, that of rebalancing the economy, citing forecasts of a deteriorating current account deficit.
English said some of the deterioration was a one-off, the result of the need to rebuild Christchurch. Some was the result of a normal and desirable cyclical pick-up in investment during recovery from recession.
But the long-run drivers of a better current account position would have to be improved savings behaviour by New Zealanders and improved competitiveness relative to the rest of the world.

White House: Yes, we asked YouTube to consider removing that Mohammed movie
posted at 4:42 pm on September 14, 2012 by Allahpundit
The first mention of this that I saw online was in a LA Times story about the filmmaker, where it was mentioned in passing five paragraphs down. If you thought General Dempsey pressuring Terry Jones to pipe down was bad, how much worse is it to have the U.S. government leaning on one of the world's most influential online media companies to suppress "offensive" content? Google spent nearly $4 million to lobby the feds in the second quarter of this year alone; they have strong financial incentives to comply with "requests" like this, and it's to their credit that they refused in this case (while agreeing to block YouTube in Libya and Egypt, do note). What that means is that, at the moment, Google seems to be more strongly committed to free speech than your own government does. And I should have anticipated that two days ago in this post, when I was half-jokingly wondering about a future blasphemy exception to the First Amendment. The government doesn't need to enact anti-blasphemy laws if it can lean on private media platforms to enact their own anti-blasphemy policies "voluntarily." It's a "soft power" approach to censorship, and the more cronyistic the government is with business, the more leverage it'll have in pursuing it.
And yet, the LA Times barely thought to mention it. The only way you're going to get the feds to stop doing this is if the media shines a big bright spotlight on whenever it happens, but that won't happen until a Republican is back in office. Free speech is, for our concern-troll media, largely a partisan issue.
The White House has asked YouTube to review an anti-Muslim film posted to the site that has been blamed for igniting the violent protests this week in the Middle East.
Tommy Vietor, spokesman for the National Security Council, said the White House has "reached out to YouTube to call the video to their attention and ask them to review whether it violates their terms of use."
However, the video remained on the site as of Friday afternoon, and it is posted many other places on the Internet.
Lots of stupidity in this strategy. First, as noted, getting YouTube to dump the vid will greatly reduce its visibility but won't cause it to disappear completely. If anything, demand to see it would skyrocket. Second, by leaning on Google, the feds are actually confirming the worst suspicions of Islamist nuts that the U.S. government has some sort of control over offensive speech by U.S. citizens. The message the State Department should be pushing right now is that America doesn't meddle with what its citizens say and therefore bears no moral culpability for cultural insults. Instead, they're meddling. Third, per Mark Hemingway, this actually vindicates Romney's critique of the Cairo embassy statement. Romney accused the administration of "sympathizing" with the sort of Islamist cretins who later assaulted the embassy, annnd that's basically been proved true. Islamists were insulted, and now the White House is trying to make the insult go away.
Since the feds couldn't get Google to bend on the clip, though, I guess it's time for plan B: Actually imprisoning the guy responsible for the movie.
U.S. probation officials are looking into potential violations of prison release terms by a California man linked to an anti-Islam film that triggered violent protests at U.S. embassies in Muslim countries, a court spokeswoman said on Friday…
[The filmmaker,] who lives in the Los Angeles suburb of Cerritos, pleaded guilty to bank fraud in 2010 and was sentenced to 21 months in prison, to be followed by five years on supervised probation, court documents showed. Prison records show he was released in June 2011, shortly before production began on the video…
Under the written terms of his release, [the filmmaker] was forbidden to use the Internet or assume any aliases without approval of his probation officer. A senior law enforcement official in Washington indicated the probation investigation relates to whether he broke either or both of these conditions.
Violations could result in him being sent back to prison, court records show.
Newsweek also has a story about the parole-violation angle, which I recommend reading just because it's palpable how much of a pretext it is to punish the guy for the crime of "unhelpful " speech instead. (The last paragraph of their story sums it up.) Even if he technically violated his parole by using a computer and an alias, as far as I'm aware no one's alleging that he used that computer and alias to commit any crimes since leaving prison. Bringing him in for that is like going after Al Capone for tax evasion: That's not his "real" crime, but you'll happily prosecute him for it just to impose some measure of justice on him. The filmmaker's "real" crime is antagonizing lots of violent Islamist lunatics by blaspheming their religion, but since that's still technically legal, maybe we can bring him in on the charge of using an alias instead.
Exit question: Since everyone understands that this guy is now marked for death, why does the media — with the help of law enforcement — insist on publishing his name and whereabouts? Finding out who's behind the film and what his motive was in producing it is a legitimate story, but you could write that story without using his name: "The filmmaker, who's name is being withheld for security reasons, is a Coptic Christian who's been to prison for fraud and drug possession," etc etc. Every clue to his identity and whereabouts makes the job of jihadist nutbags a little easier, and yet the media insists on dropping some very, very big clues.
Update: Ed DMs to say that he's familiar with the filmmaker's hometown and that it's small enough that it shouldn't be difficult to pinpoint him. So, yeah, this guy's probably going to be killed. But I guess he had it coming, huh?

Reviews for this host's other properties
good organized and very friendly contact. Appartment was clean an close to any main attraction in the old city. Those love partying be adviced that area is at night times more laid back and you had to walk a minimum of 10-15 minutes for touristik areas with bars and restaurant. Quite close to the appartment building is a street stuffed with fish restaurants where mostly turkish people with families are around and live music everywhere. For women travellers: best when come late to check a taxi.
One word : perfect! We had a great flat in an awesome location. Saban was really nice and available. I would go back there with pleasure!
The apartment is very well situated in a walking distances from the main attraction of Istanbul. It has all the basic things one can need. Saban is nice and helpful man.
We had a great time in Estambul. We were traveling with two children so the location was quite important for us. In this case it was perfect! Very close to the AyaSofia and the Blue Mosque.
We couldn't meet Saban, but he has always been quite accessible through phone or Whatsapp. He can even arrange transfer to the airport if you need it. He helped us saving our luggage during the last day until our transfer arrived.
The house itself was ok, the bathroom was clean and comfortable. There is one double bed and two single beds. There are also two sofas in the the living room that can be transformed into beds.
There is a cleaning lady that comes every day.
The tab water in Estambul is not potable, we missed having a bottle of water when we arrived.
Apart from that, everything was perfect.
Thanks Saban!
Very nice
Sehr schön
The apartment stretches over 3 floors and is adequately dimensioned terms of surface area for 6 persons.
However, there are only 2 bedrooms with 2 and 1 bed, so 3 persons to stay in the living room on the sofa or folding bed.
Only drawback is that only 1 shower is available, resulting in a maximum occupancy of the apartment to some delays in the morning hours. Both toilets are also only on the respective bedrooms available, so that the three persons from the living room had better have a good bubbles when at night do not want to disturb the others.
The location for activities in the city is good, so it can but the evening sometimes even because of the restaurants are a little louder when falling asleep in front of the door.
WLAN was clean and trouble handover were offset by the landlord to another location.
Die Wohnung zieht sich über 3 Etagen und ist von der Fläche her für 6 Personen ausreichend bemessen.
Allerdings gibt es nur 2 Schlafzimmer mit je 2 und 1 Bett, womit 3 Personen im Wohnzimmer auf den Sofas bzw. Klappbett übernachten müssen.
Unschön ist auch, dass nur 1 Dusche zur Verfügung steht, was bei einer Maximalbelegung der Wohnung zu gewissen Verzögerungen in den Morgenstunden führt. Beide Toiletten sind zudem nur über die jeweiligen Schlafzimmer zugänglich, so dass die drei Personen aus dem Wohnzimmer besser eine gute Blasen haben sollten, wenn sie die anderen nachts nicht stören wollen.
Die Lage für Unternehmungen in der Stadt ist gut, deshalb kann es aber abends beim Einschlafen auch schon mal auf grund der Restaurants vor der Tür etwas lauter werden.
WLAN lief sauber und Probleme bei der Wohnungsübergabe wurden durch den Vermieter an einer anderen Stelle wieder ausgeglichen.
Pros: the Disc. is located een the heart of Sultanahmet, is very clean and the maid comes every day, okay climatizadoy bed is very good.
Against: although they warn that it is better not to drink the tap water, there was not a bottle of water when we arrived (at nearly midnight)
The kitchen is devoid of cooking basics like a sieve or a salad. The internet did not work well, it is permanently cut.
We had a small problem and notify Saban who responded quickly and resolved.
In short the best is the location and cleanliness, should improve the equipment and let even a bottle of water when a new guest arrives.
A favor: el Dto. está ubicado een el corazón de Sultanahmet, es muy limpio y la mucama viene todos los días, está bien climatizadoy la cama es muy buena.
En contra: si bien te avisan que es preferible no beber el agua de la canilla, no había ni una botella de agua potable cuando llegamos (casi a medianoche)
La cocina está desprovista de elementos básicos para cocinar como un colador o una ensaladera. La internet no funcionaba bien, se cortaba permanentemente.
Tuvimos un pequeño inconveniente y le avisamos a Saban quién respondió rápidamente y lo resolvió.
En resúmen lo mejor es la ubicación y la limpieza, deberían mejorar el equipamiento y dejar aunque sea una botella de agua para cuando llega un nuevo huésped.
Very nice apartment. Very well maintained and decorated. Kitchen well equipped. Was cleaned every day. When the electricity stayed away again, has Saban late evening an acquaintance passing sent to help. All very net. Super surroundings: quiet, close to the sights & Tram (path), nice restaurants nearby and Turkish / original district. We felt very comfortable! THANK YOU!
Sehr schönes Appartment. Sehr gepflegt und geschmackvoll. Küche gut ausgestattet. Jeden Tag wurde gereinigt. Als der Strom einmal wegblieb, hat Saban spat abends einen Bekannten zur Hilfe vorbeigesandt. Alle sehr net. Super Umgebung: ruhig, nahe zu den Sehenswürdigkeiten & Tram (Laufweg), nette Restaurants in der Nähe und türkisches/ursprüngliches Viertel. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt! DANKE!
Everything was perfect. Saban was very helpful. The Location was very convienent for the Blue Mosque. Nice restauerant we within a few blocks of the Apartment. The neighborhood itself was not the best, but in no problematic. In General we found it was better to pay with credit card or lires, not euros.
from the airport by metro and tram easy to reach super located apartment-a couple of minutes walk to Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia and Topkapi Palace (and tram stop) ... all around a lot of small shops and stalls selling the freshest fruits and vegetables-all there, what you need ...
vom Flughafen mit Metro und Straßenbahn einfach zu erreichende super gelegene Wohnung-ein paar Minuten zu Fuß zu Blauer Moschee, Hagia Sophia und Topkapi-Palast (und Straßenbahnhaltestelle)... ringsum viele kleine Lädchen und Stände mit frischestem Obst und Gemüse-alles da, was man braucht...
