We enjoyed our 5 days stay directly in "the heart of Rome".
The appartment was well sized, with all comfort we needed.
We felt like Romans!
Katrin and Frank
It's a very nice flat, located in the heart of Rome, close to Campo di Fiori, Pantheon and Piazza Novona. Only some meters away you have restaurants, a supermarket and a very fine bakery. Great is the portable WiFi, so you can find a lot of interesting details on you sightseeing tour. Tiziana was very kind and welcomed us with some snacks and bevarage.
A very nice host for a good apartment. Very well located and equipped, with a supermarket and plenty of buses yards away. The portable Wifi was very useful, as we had Internet all over Rome. Central heating very efficient. The only con the sofa bed, not very confortable for two people. If they get a real double bed it will be unbeatable.
The apartement was just perfect!! It was very clean and with the two bedrooms there's enough space for 4 people. It's located in the historical old town, we were easily able to walk to all major sightseeing spots. There was a Wifi-box which we could take with us, that means we had internet access all over Rome. Also Tiziana was very kind, she prepared some snacks for us and organized a pick-up service back to the airport. Highly recommended!!
The appartment is nice and clean, that for me at least is very important.
The best thing is its location very close to some places like Pantheon, Piazza Venecia, Trastevere, Piazza Navona,... and you can go on walk also to others not so far like The Vatican or The Colosseum.
Tiziana is very kind and she also gives you the first day some elemental food, what makes it easier your arrival.
The flat is nicely furnished and so perfectly situated in the historic quarter that you can reach all important sights by foot. We managed to cook wonderful meals with fresh vegetables from Campo de Fiori. Our host Tiziana gave us a very warm welcome and provided us with basic ingredients. Her English is very good and we were able to contact her at any moment, which was great and very helpful for us and we would like to thank her for that. We would like to come back another time.
It was a great place to stay, the location is just perfect. You can walk from there basically to every place in central rome and you don`t need to worry about buses or the metro. Also the supermarket is less than 50 meters away. When we arrived at the appartment their was already something on the table to snack. Everything is well equipped and clean as well and you can use the portable wifi everywhere. So we highly recommend this place.
Tiziana is so nice that she even prepared snacks for us : ) and the flat is just perfect, not to mention the mobile Wifi-gear which leads us through the whole city!! Highly recommended.
Very nice appartment, perfect located. Tiziana was very kind and helpful. You can reach many sights on foot. For all others there is
a bus station only two minutes away. You walk five minutes to the campo dei fiori! The equipment of the appartment is perfect and
it is very clean. We will come again!

Bob Melvin wore a look of disbelief Tuesday when he was announced as the American League's Manager of the Year.
His credentials left no doubt he was worthy.
The A's skipper took a team that many had pegged for 100 losses and guided it to a 94-win season and the American League West championship.
He did it while utilizing 19 rookies — 12 of them pitchers — and overcoming numerous injuries, not to mention a payroll that was the lowest in the A.L.
It was enough for Melvin to claim his second Manager of the Year award. He won in 2007 while managing Arizona, and he's one of just six in major league history to win the award in both leagues.
"It's as good a managerial job as anyone I've been around," said A's general manager Billy Beane, who took over his position in 1997. "The entire time I've been here, we've had a lot of award winners. But I'm not sure we've ever had a winner more deserving."
Melvin was watching Tuesday's made-for-TV awards show from a studio in New York, where he lives in the off-season. His look ranged from surprise to confusion after he was announced as the winner.
"I was sitting in a dark room, and it was a little claustrophobic," he joked. "I was a bit surprised. For me, it's more a validation for our organization having a great year."
He wasn't the only one shocked.
Many felt a perceived East Coast bias would sway voting toward Baltimore's Buck Showalter, who led the surprising Orioles to 93 wins. After Beane was voted Executive of the Year last week, there was reason to believe Melvin's on-field work also might get overlooked.
But Melvin garnered 16 of the 28 first-place votes from the Baseball Writers Association of America. He beat out Showalter, who received the other 12 first-place votes. Robin Ventura of the Chicago White Sox finished a distant third.
Votes were collected at the end of the regular season, so the playoffs didn't factor in.
The voting broke down somewhat regionally. Writers covering A.L. West clubs voted 6-2 in favor of Melvin. Those from the A.L. East voted 7-3 for Showalter. Writers from the A.L. Central swung it in Melvin's, giving him the nod 7-3.
Yet even some of those in the East recognized Melvin's work.
"They lost (Bartolo) Colon. (Brandon) Inge got hurt. They took some big hits during the season," said the Tampa Tribune's Roger Mooney, who voted for Melvin. "The A's were the sum of their parts. They chased down the Rangers and won the division. Melvin's team won the division, and I used that as my tiebreaker."
The A's traded three All-Star pitchers last offseason in Trevor Cahill, Gio Gonzalez and Andrew Bailey. Due to injury and suspension, they finished the season with an all-rookie rotation.
On June 30, they trailed the Rangers by 13 games in the A.L. West. But from July1 on, they led the majors with a 57-26 mark.
"Coming into spring training, obviously we all read and watch sports and know we weren't picked to do what we did," right-hander Jarrod Parker said. "Bob said, 'Don't worry about that. We know who we are.' Bob stayed upbeat when times were tough. He always knew how to say the right things and keep us motivated and going."
Reliever Sean Doolittle laughed when told Melvin was surprised he won.
"Just look at the job he did," Doolittle said. "He absolutely deserved to win. I guess that's him — really humble and a lot of humility."

Noun. A person who received a gift from a re-gifter. Usually he/she does not know that the thing given is a re-gift because the gift giver (who originally bought the wretched thing) and the re-giftee are usually not related, or have a needle-in-a-haystack chance of knowing each other (as carefully planned by the scheming re-gifter).
Uhm, I hate to be the one to tell you this, but that pink and brown scarf that your boyfriend gave you... he did not buy it. You're a re-giftee, hon.

Ruud recommends taking advantage of property tax refund program
Minnesota's Department of Revenue has several property tax refund programs available. One program is available for both eligible homeowners and renters based on income and property taxes paid, while the other is a special program for homeowners whose property taxes are increasing at a larger amount year to year.
State Sen. Carrie Ruud, R-Breezy Point, said, "As a proponent of growing a healthier economy and protecting hardworking taxpayers, I want to encourage my constituents to look into this often forgotten property tax refund program."
To qualify for the regular Property Tax Refund program, an applicant must be a full- or part-year resident of Minnesota for the year, and cannot be claimed as a dependent. Eligibility is based on household income and property taxes paid on the applicant's principal residence in Minnesota.
If the applicant for this program is a renter, household income for 2012 must be less than $56,220. Renters must have lived in a building that was subject to property taxes or "payments in lieu of property taxes." The maximum refund for renters is $1,600.
If the applicant for this program is a homeowner, the home must be classified as your homestead and the applicant must have a household income of less than $103,730. Higher income limits apply if the applicant is a senior citizen or disabled. The applicant's refund will depend on how high the property taxes are relative to income. The maximum refund for homeowners is $2,530.
The second program available is the Special Property Tax Refund. To qualify, a homeowner must have owned and lived in the same home on both Jan. 2, 2012, and Jan. 2, 2013. In addition, the net property tax on the homestead increased by more than 12 percent from 2012 to 2013. Last, the increase was at least $100 and wasn't due to improvements made to the property.
There is no limit on household income for this special refund. Homeowners may qualify even if they don't qualify for the regular property tax refund program. The maximum special refund is $1,000.
To file a 2012 property tax refund, the Minnesota Department of Revenue recommends that M1PR forms be submitted by Aug. 15. For questions and for the application forms (and to apply online), visit the Department of Revenue website at www.revenue.state.mn.us and click on "Property Tax Refund."
The Department can also be reached at 651-296-3781 or 800-652-9094.

Spring break of giving
HONAKER, Va. - On a gloomy day with impending winter storm approaching, it's got us all wanting to be somewhere nice and warm, maybe the beach.
Many college students do just that this time of year for spring break, but many others are giving a week of service instead. The Southeast Rural Community Assistance Project has them scattered all across the Southern Appalachians.
We ran across a group from Saint Joseph's University out of Philadelphia in Honaker.
Some hard-working students from Saint Joseph's enjoy a hardy lunch at the First Baptist Church in Honaker. Some have been here before enjoying their spring break by giving their services to others. "No one tells you that have to, it's not mandatory but you kind of feel like its you job to help out there because everyone else is doing it. You might as well do something not for myself but for other people," freshman Samantha Walshak said.
"It's about 400 to 450 kids that come down to the Appalachian region so that's really saying something. I think its a lot of kids, what they believe in and their service, their upbringing, their schools," sophomore Joe Conner added.
For some of them it's not their first trip to Honaker; they chose to come back and help out. "They know us by name and face so it was cool to feel that welcome thing, like we have a place to go away from home where you're excepted and its a family away from home," senior Therese Dallegro said.
"I love the people. They're so friendly and nice, and you can call them by their first name and get to know them so well," says sophomore Madeleine Keogh.
Not only are the students making friends with the locals, but each other by spending so much time together. "When you build a friendship with someone that is based on your desire to do good for other people, that's really strong and that's something that you'll never forget," senior Tyler Wands says.
"There's like that essence that everyone wants to be able to help someone whether or not they can find a way to do it. Maybe that's the hard part," graduate student William Puetz said.
But finding a way to give seems to come easy for these Saint Joseph's students.

Good for non-pill takers
I ordered as an alternative to the NOW 200mg tablets. I personally found this form less effective based purely on my own CNS response; with the 200mg tablets I am less easily agitated and more calm in chaos for the most part of the day. The chewables seemed to metabolize quickly through my liver and did not have nearly the same lasting effect as tablets. Thats my take. Everyone is different.
Easy to take
Chalky grit texture.

By Meg

5-HTP is very easy to take. You should really research this well before taking though. You do NOT want to overdose. We havent taken it long enough to show a big improvement but we have seen improvement with mood and sleep. Ill update if we stick with it.
Size and chewable option.
Lack of research for children and breastfeeding moms.

Ok, based on the replies, I have the following for action items:
- Continue to read/learn/watch instructional material
- Ad on CL seeking space for bees.
- Attend local and state bee club meetings (volunteer and seek mentor once comfortable)
- Consider DIY top bar hive instead of Langstroth (need lumber pricing; find out considerations for management, especially in subsequent years)
- Research commercial and/or independent operators for different perspectives
- Find out hidden beekeeping costs, especially for years 1 & 2
Have I overlooked anything? After reading the replies, I feel more optimistic that we can work things out with adequate planning. As far as that's concerned, for equipment purposes, the plan is to get smokers and commercial veils, but go with TIG welding gloves (husband already has these) and painters' suits (cheap) - at least in the short run. For the hive, we were originally thinking about contacting Dadant or Virginia Bee about 8-frame medium hive bodies. I have RA, so lifting anything heavier by myself is a no-go without my other half. (I'll have to do some research on the top-bar hive to see if that might work out.)
Are there any ways to potentially save money when buying packages or nucs? I'm kind of assuming that we don't want to skimp on bee quality, but have to ask.
Thanks again, everyone, for your time.

There are some important qualities I'd like to see in the next governor of Maine. But they're all pretty boring. So let's get to what I wouldn't like to see.
I don't want anybody who's crazy. I'm not voting for a slimeball. I don't find dull to be an attractive trait. Likewise, an attitude that indicates an indifference to, or an ignorance of, the complex details of state policy. I'm unimpressed by a resume that includes a history of business failures. And I think a candidate who brags about having little or no experience in politics is demonstrating the sort of stupidity that would disqualify him or her for an entry-level position at the average fast-food franchise.
That seems to eliminate all the actual or potential gubernatorial hopefuls for 2010. So, I'll be calling it a day and hitting the bar early. I'll check back with you before the 2014 election.
Just kidding. Even though the latest infestation of Blaine House hopefuls is composed of characters so unappealing that I've considered calling for a constitutional amendment to allow John Baldacci to stay in office for another four years (still kidding — nobody's that unappealing), that doesn't mean it isn't my duty to denigrate these doofusses.
Les Otten was once the chairman of American Skiing Co., a job from which he was forced after failing to turn anything remotely resembling a profit. ASC was eventually sold off for parts. Otten was also a minority owner of the Boston Red Sox. During his tenure, the team signed Julio Lugo to an expensive four-year contract. If Otten is elected governor, rumor has it that Lugo will be appointed to the Maine Supreme Court. Which is preferable to having him at Fenway Park playing shortstop.
Otten, who now heads a wood-pellet company, is running as a moderate Republican, which is what he claimed to be on the several occasions over the last dozen years when he flirted with getting in the race for governor or senator, but never actually did so.
My favorite Otten quote comes from the a 1996 Lewiston Sun Journal story, before the ASC disaster. "Because I've been successful in business," he said, "does not necessarily mean I'll be successful in politics."
Dawn Hill is serving her second term as a Democratic state representative from York. Hill used to be a lawyer, but now she sits on the board of an insurance company and runs a dog-boarding facility. Her Web site hasn't been updated since sometime in 2008, so if she's done anything useful during her brief tenure in politics, it hasn't come to my attention.
Hill cleverly decided to announce her run for governor of Maine in the Portsmouth Herald, in case anybody in New Hampshire wanted to move here to vote for her. She told the paper she's "a mover and a shaker, a fiscal moderate and a social progressive."
Here's a quote from one of her enthusiastic staffers: "This is not some crazy, loony, rock-'n'-roll, you're-gonna-be-governor thing. This is a legitimate candidate."
Eliot Cutler has an impressive background. The Bangor native (he now lists his legal residence as Cape Elizabeth) got his career started around a thousand years ago as an aide to the late Senator Ed Muskie. He held important positions in the Carter administration. He became a lobbyist and then one of the top American lawyers based in China. He's worked on four presidential campaigns and been a reliable contributor to liberal Democrats at the state and national levels.

"4-0, it's fun," said UNM head coach Yvonne Sanchez. "We're a work in progress. We're going to be for a little but. But you' rather learn your lessons with a win. They're gelling together. They're doing different things in every game that's good. It's nice to see as a coaching staff. We're going to get it together and put a complete game together."
New Mexico (4-0) finished with three players in double figures – senior Caroline Durbin with a game-high 14 points and Sara Halasz and Jordan Erskine each with 10 points. Erskine finished with a game high seven rebounds and freshman guard Bryce Owens had 10 of the Lobos 16 assists for the game.
"It wasn't as big as I thought it would be," Owens said of the rivalry game. "I thought it would be more physical, maybe some 'bos (elbows) thrown."
The Aggies battled in the first half, trailing 15-4 with 9:22 left in the first half. UNM kept the lead at 11 until NMSU managed a 6-0 run keyed by Stephanie Gilbreath to cut the Lobo advantage to 25-20 with 3:03 left in the first half. Both teams managed only one field goal the rest of the first half for a 27-22 halftime score.
"The biggest thing is we had a couple of people in foul trouble with Sarah and Caroline (in the first half)," said Sanchez. "So getting them back out on the floor in the second half, they set the tone. We had a hand in their face every time."
Gilbreath and guard Danesia Williamson both led
NMSU with 10
points. Kelsie Rosenthal added seven points and a team-high six
The Lobos defensive effort in the second half led to a horrendous shooting half for the Aggies, who shot just 4 of 32 in the second half and went 0 of 13 from the three point line.
By contrast UNM shot 11 of 25 on their way to a 24 of 52 (46.2%) shooting performance for the game. NMSU finished shooting just 14 of 64 (21.9%) for the game and 0 of 18 on treys.
The Aggies did managed to outrebound the Lobos 44 to 43 but lost the battle on the defensive boards 37-27. UNM outscored NMSU 34-20 in the paint, 19-13 on points off turnovers and 10-4 on fast break opportunities. New Mexico's bench also outperformed New Mexico State's outscoring the Aggie reserves 20-10.
"It's great (to beat them)," said Durbin. "Since I've been here, we haven't lost to them and I'm trying to keep that alive.""

Great tip as celery has gotten quite expensive around here! Thanks for the tip.
I put a couple of patter towels in the bottom of a tupperware bowl and burp the cover can keep lettuce fresh and crisp for several weeks. Put the core end down............
Does the celery last longer in foil than the Tupperware keeper?
Well doggie. Wish i'd seen this earlier. thanks.
I also wrap cheese in aluminum foil -- lasts much longer.
Wonderful tip! Several weeks ago I was reading that celery helps to lower blook pressure, so I have been eating a lot of it lately. Now I know how to keep it fresh when I buy a lot on sale.
I will try this and check back.

McNair grants to strengthen TRIO Programs
By Kris Rodriguez
Public Affairs Specialist
(Nov. 12, 2007)--UTSA received more than $17 million in federal funding in the last 17 years for its TRIO Programs, which help low-income, first-generation students earn a college degree. That support will extend even further with $1.1 million for the Ronald E. McNair Post-Baccalaureate Achievement Program.
Today's headlines
- La Prensa Foundation is newest member of UTSA Lone Star Society

Established in 1986 after the death of astronaut and engineer Ronald McNair in the Space Shuttle Challenger explosion, the McNair grants are designed to increase the attainment of doctoral degrees by low-income, first-generation college students, including groups underrepresented in doctoral studies.
The five-year McNair grants will support 25 students annually who are pursuing doctoral studies through research opportunities, summer internships, academic counseling, and assistance in securing admission and financial aid.
To celebrate the announcement, Rep. Ciro Rodriguez joined UTSA President Ricardo Romo, TRIO executive director for outreach Rita Cortez and high school students from John Jay, Warren and Marshall high schools who are already enrolled in the TRIO Programs.
Romo and Rodriguez, both of whom ran track and were raised in low-income families on San Antonio's West Side, encouraged the students to set high goals, take positive chances and continue learning throughout their lives.
"The beauty of education is that it gives you opportunities and opens up choices for you," said Rodriguez. "An education gives you the opportunity to pursue what you enjoy doing in your life."
Rodriguez expressed the need for more students to enroll in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) courses, since increasing demand is expected for doctors, scientists and engineers.
Since 1990, more than 15,000 students have participated in UTSA's TRIO Programs.


text: On my truck the passenger side parking lamp is somehow getting moisture in there. I've had the truck for a long time and never had a problem with this before. I tried taking it off and submerging it in water to find the leak, but didn't find anything. After that, I added a layer of RTV silicone to the rubber gaskets that seal the bulb connector with the reflector housing and it still gets wet in there. Any suggestions?

Libya Facts Flag
Water-poor, oil-rich Libya has the highest per capita income of continental Africa. Most Libyans live on the Mediterranean coast, many in Tripoli and Banghazi. The largest water development project ever devised, the Great Man-Made River Project, brings water from aquifers under the Sahara to the coastal cities. From 1969 to 2011 this former Italian colony, independent since 1951, was an authoritarian socialist state under Muammar Qaddafi—whose backing of terrorism led to a U.S. bombing in 1986 and UN sanctions in 1992. In 2003 Libya ended its international isolation and abandoned its weapons programs. Qaddafi subsequently made significant strides in normalizing relations with Western nations. The U.S. rescinded Libya's designation as a state sponsor of terrorism in June 2006.
Unrest that began in several Middle East and North African countries in late December 2010 spread to several Libyan cities in early 2011. The Transitional National Council (TNC) was formed in Benghazi with the stated aim of overthrowing the Qaddafi regime and guiding the country on an interim basis through the transition to democracy. After several months of fighting, anti-Qaddafi forces in August 2011 captured the capital, Tripoli. In mid-September, the UN General Assembly voted to recognize the TNC as the legitimate interim governing body of Libya. Qaddafi was killed during fighting between the TNC and his loyalists on October 20, 2011.

Word Made Flesh Bolivia seeks abundant life for those affected by prostitution in El Alto, Bolivia.
Bolivia is beautifully diverse and rich in natural resources, yet one of the poorest nations in Latin America. The capital city La Paz and its crowning metropolis, El Alto, are striking at 13,300 feet above sea level. With its raw poverty, intense environment and notorious reputation, it stands as an ideal urban center for service among the most vulnerable. Here racism runs deep, as do tightly held folk traditions intertwined with modern-day expressions of faith. Men tend to wander, women are undervalued, children often overlooked. But WMF Bolivia has made a home here and from our smallest acts of love, we persistently work towards Transformation and hold on to Hope. Specifically, we work directly with those in the sex trade. We understand that when a woman feels there is no other option, she may turn to the streets. Maybe hungry tummies await her at home or debts crowd heavy around her. Maybe he beats her viciously and she's inconceivably trapped. Most likely someone wounded her long ago, and under desperate circumstances, she considers the unthinkable. Over time she withers away, hating what she does, yet unable to see any other way out. The WMF community accompanies her during this journey, sharing the Hope we have in Christ along the way.
Abundant life for those affected by prostitution in Bolivia.
In community we seek to practice and proclaim the Kingdom of God among persons affected by prostitution, through relationship and opportunities for transformation.
Presence (Awaken)
We seek solidarity and understanding. We value presence and relationships. We desire to be compassionate people and witnesses of Hope in dark places. For that reason, we consistently visit the largest red-light district in El Alto – and have done so since 2001. We offer a ministry of encouragement and prayer, along with an invitation to our drop-in center.
Paso a Paso (Heal)
At our ministry center, we sit at the table together. We listen to stories, and we share our own. This is a place of connection and mutuality, a space where women can come and know they are loved and valued. We offer hospitality, discipleship, medical support, and strategic workshops, as well as tutoring and day programs for children. It is a place of healing – a refuge – where women are challenged to seek the Lord's best for their lives.
SutiSana (Equip)
Many of our friends have little education, are the only provider in their home, and have no sustainable alternative to prostitution. In 2010, we founded a social enterprise to provide them dignified employment, allowing them to reach their full potential. Word Made Flesh coordinates sewing training for women to prepare them to work.
When a woman joins SutiSana, she learns new life skills and rhythms, and is invited to address the deep issues that led her to her reality and can find space and guidance to respond to that still soft voice. She and her children are supported through community, and she is given opportunities to continually grow – learning to design bags, work with new materials, and even coach other women as they leave prostitution. Shop their bags and totes and support their journey at www.sutisana.com

All new Camry -oops, sorry, ES....Thought this time Lexus would be a bit more imaginative with there design theme...Why does a company do that when they have a winner -in terms of design, like the IS?
Soory, here is the picture link: http://carscoop.blogspot.com/
Sorry, that website sucked my computer's memory.
That car follows all the Lexus family lines, I can't see how you call the IS a winner and this bland.
Well, its a matter of proportions. The IS is beautifully balanced in term of its body proportions, nearly as good as the BMW 3 Series. On the other hand, the ES isnt. Just because they used the L-Finesse –or how they call it, design language on the ES, it doesn't mean it interoperates Lexus latest theme. It just uses clues like the front mask, the rear light scheme etc.
cuz they want a cheaper entry model for Lexus
That center console looks like some alien lifeform.
Quote:That center console looks like some alien lifeform.
good god! that is ugly!
Unfortunately I can't see the picture.
I just want to know from where they took the design ideas. Toyota (Lexus) is copying a lot of ideas from other designers/carmakers and execute it very amateurish. "Alien lifeform" sounds very suspicious to me.
Could anyone post just 1 (one) image please?
Here are the pics Lutz.
Thank you my friend! I appreciate your help. I think the interior is o.k. for that car. It's original enough.
I really like the car...the exterior styling is quite good, and the interior is OK too. But I can hear the magazines now. "The Lexus ES350 has a plastic dash. This is absolutely unacceptable. We give this car 1 and a half stars because the interior is so bad. It does have heated leather seats and wood trim, but that plastic dash leaves much to be desired."
Sounds good! They are so predictable! ...maybe they have too much plastic in stock... The car is o.k. Personally I don't hold Toyota/Lexus in high esteem, but the quality is always good.
Toyota has some really fabulous looking stuff, quality wise. But the exteriors are bland and they aren't a very performance oriented company.

Who's up for a new NBC/WSJ poll based on a bad sample?
posted at 8:07 pm on July 24, 2012 by Allahpundit
Last month's sample was questionable. This month's sample is terrible:
The 2008 national exit poll sample, taken when Hopenchange fever was at its zenith, was 39D/32R/29I, or D+7. This one, after three years of Obamanomics dreck, is somehow D+11 if you include leaners and D+12(!) if you don't. Anyone feel like taking these results seriously?
And yet we soldier on, my friends, reminding ourselves at every step that lame content is still content. One interesting takeaway: The attacks on Bain are driving Obama's favorables down too, even with a very Democratic sample.
[T]he percentages signaling a less favorable impression about these candidates – especially at this point in the race – are greater than what the NBC/WSJ poll showed in the 2004 and 2008 presidential contests.
"This is not characteristic … for July," says Republican pollster Bill McInturff, who conducted this survey with Democratic pollster Peter D. Hart. "These are numbers you usually see in October."…
The president's favorable/unfavorable score in the poll is 49 percent to 43 percent, a slight change from June when it was 47 percent to 38 percent.
Moreover, 33 percent view Obama very positively, while 32 percent view him very negatively – which is his highest "very negative" number in poll.
By comparison, Romney's overall favorable/unfavorable score is 35 percent to 40 percent, with 24 percent viewing him "very" negatively – also his highest mark here.
In fact, Romney would be the first GOP presumptive presidential nominee since 1996 to head into his nominating convention with a net-negative favorable/unfavorable score.
Only once before has Obama been as high as 30 percent when people were asked if they viewed him "very negatively." This month he's at 32 even though NBC's respondents are heavily blue. He still leads overall, 49/43 among registered voters and 49/41 in battleground states, but Romney leads by two points among voters who are "high interest." The Bain attacks haven't done much to tilt people's opinion about Bain either: In May, the favorable/unfavorable split for the firm was 9/19 whereas this month it's 12/23. And yes, Obama's earning himself a reputation as a negative campaigner:
Romney's lead on the economy is increasing, too, as pessimism about a recovery deepens. The first column in the first table here is O, the second is Mitt:
So what explains Obama's lead (besides the help he's getting from the sample, natch)? Three things, I think. One: He still leads on likability, although some polls say he leads big and others say his lead is more modest. His favorable rating here is 49/43 compared to 35/40 for Romney, which is interesting insofar as his negatives are now actually higher than Mitt's. See why he's putting out those warm let's-you-and-I-chat ads? Two: O leads on virtually every issue and leadership metric except the economy. Maybe that's a simple function of voters not having sized Romney up yet, but it could be that by investing his entire campaign in building an economic edge, Mitt's more or less abandoned the field on lesser issues. Three: Just because the Bain attacks aren't doing much damage doesn't mean all of O's attacks are fizzling.
The fact that Obama's now running positive ads makes me think he's concluded that, for the moment, the attacks on Romney are hurting him more than they are Mitt. But I wonder if that'll change if he can build up enough of a lead in likability. Obama won't mind seeing his favorables turn negative, I assume, as long as Romney's are turning at least as negative in the process. Something to look forward to in September and October!

My Next Path (Advice)
It's been awhile since I've posted a topic here! I have recently come up on a decent amount of money and I plan on putting it towards my education. I am one of those IT guys caught between Programming and Pentesting; Can't decide which one I love more because I like them both. My ultimate dream is to do development for awhile then move into Penetration Testing (or even alternate in between the two of them). I am posting because I'm in a bit of a bind on where my path lies ahead and I'm wanting some advice on courses I should take.
GPEN looks great to me, I am considering the OnDemand course. I have always wanted to hold a GIAC certification because they're well respected (although pricey). Do any of you have experience taking the OnDemand version of the course? Does the fee include the certification take cost? I noticed the promo code on here which will save me $150.00, so that is great! On an alternate end, I'm kind of thinking, I hold an OSCP certification. I've heard there's some information overlapping between GPEN and OSCP, is this necessarily true? If it is true, what path would you recommend going down to obtain the GPEN certification? Self Study?
Somewhere in my twisted brain, I kind of feel the desire for pain - I've had my thoughts on considering doing Offensive-Security's CTP course. If I would be able to become OSCE certified I would feel like someone at the top of their pen test game! I am just kind of skeptic whether I have the skills to go in to the lion's den almost blindfolded, and expect not to get bitten. Surely I have endured til the end in my PWB adventure, but I hear CTP is a whole new level of pain. What are your guys thoughts on me considering this?
And then lastly, for some odd reason I feel the need to want to officially fit in. I never thought it would be on my mind, but obtaining the CEH just to stick it on my resume does not sound like a bad thought to me. I am considering online training for all of these, and would like to hear some of your guys experience taking the training for CEH online (or self-study). Is this certification all that it is hyped up to be? I haven't heard many positive experience on folks who have taken v7 on here.
Anyway, I have an open mind, and money to spend, have CEH, OSCE, and GPEN on my mind. I may just say, "Bring them all on", but i wanted to hear your guys thoughts on what I should go after. If you think I should tackle them all, feel free to list off the order!
Hope to hear from you all!

I am particularly disappointed because the stylist at the salon "SUPPOSEDLY used this on my hair after a recent highlighting treatment, and it worked great. The version I purchased online-from Birchbox-did not work anywhere near as well. It feels like a different product-much less rich than what was used at the salon. I'm wondering if the salon made a mistake in telling me what they were using. In any case, the "at-home" "Art of Hair" mask left my fine, not particularly damaged hair (other than 4-5 yearly highlighting sessions, I do nothing to my hair-no blow dryer, no curling irons, no hair spray), rather dry. My hair looked dull and slightly brassier after using the illuminating shampoos and mask, which is so weird, as this is not at all what happened in the salon. I am really perplexed and dismayed. Together, the shampoo and conditioner cost me roughly $140, and I feel like I would only use them again in an "I'm all out of every other shampoo/conditioner" emergency. I would not purchase either of these products again (i.e. the illuminating shampoos" or the "Art of Hair" mask). I did everything right- I applied it to damp hair, left in for 12+ minutes, rinsed in cool water....I have no idea what happened. *The only props I can give this product are for its scent, which I'm not that fond of, but which did not irritate my chemical sensitivities, which many products do. Shu Uemura must actually use mostly natural fragrance extracts in its product line. It's the synthetic stuff (the phthalates, etc) that provoke my sensitivities. So, kudos to them for that, but seriously, this product needs to be more shine & moisture enhancing.1
My hair felt great after using the deep conditioning mask with the illuminating Shu Uemura shampoo.
It was smooth and shiny after using it, but I thought the musk-rose scent was a tad bit too strong. I hope that using this conditioner did not clash too much with my perfume!

Shiver Security Systems Plans to Build New $3M HQ
Based in Dayton, Ohio, since 1971, the security provider is building a 12,500-square-foot facility in nearby Springboro.
By SSI Staff · August 13, 2014
DAYTON, Ohio — Shiver Security Systems, based here since 1971, is relocating its headquarters to Springboro, Ohio, and constructing a $3 million facility.
Shiver Security Systems provides integrated security solutions, access control, video surveillance and fire protection for about 6,000 customers in southwest Ohio and Northern Kentucky. The company plans to move 35 of its 50 employees to its new 12,500-square-foot facility, Shiver Security President Chip Shiver Jr., told the Dayton Business Journal.
"Our plan is definitely to expand, we've outgrown our space here in Dayton," Shiver said of the company's existing headquarters.
Shiver will maintain a second location in Mason, Ohio, which will serve as its sales and service center, but the new Springboro headquarters building will house its central station where it monitors security alerts, the newspaper reports. Shiver hopes to be operational in the new building within a year.
Springboro Planning Commission will vote this week to approve the building, said Chris Pozzutto, assistant city manager for Springboro, told the Dayton Business Journal.
Shiver Security plans to use the move as a chance to grow market share in southwestern Ohio and northern Kentucky, Shiver said.
"In our industry, you grow one customer at a time, and we're going to keep focusing on doing that in Southwest Ohio," he said.

The People have spoken 5 spending Props FLAMED
Original post made by Concerned, Another Pleasanton neighborhood, on May 20, 2009
Web Link
for an overview of the state vote totals. Of special note was Prop 1B. This is the only Prop that had any traction - only three counties in the state had a majority in favor of it. All the other spending Props lost the majority vote in every county of the state. Prop 1F, the salary freeze, won in every county. The people of the State of California have spoken, loud and clear.
Can you say FUNDEMENTAL C-H-A-N-G-E?

If we really want to see fundamental change then we need to get a voter pushed referendum on a special election to get a flat tax of 6% and then we will see real change.

Wow, after reading that site, is it telling or what that the only counties in CA not clued-in to 1-B were in Santa Cruz, San Francisco, and Santa Clara counties? I think we should pay more attention to what those counties are doing to our state.
The ENTIRE rest of the state only voted 1 MM more votes than those three counties combined. Pretty scary that those looney lefties can take us so far down when they are given the opportunity.
Although, I shouldn't be so surprised...look at what those counties alone did to the entire nation by voting for Princess Nancy Pelosi!

hmmmm, and which of these "looney lefty" counties have more jobs, successful businesses, and economic opportunity. There are way more home foreclosures in Alameda County than Santa Clara. I wonder how all these looneys are able to pay their mortgage.

Alex, they are probably on government assistance of some type. Barack will help you if you want a house, car, money, or now an oil change.

Why do the wealthiest people live in those looney counties. Does living there make them looney, or do they move there because they are already looney? I guess Barack is just helping to put them through college to get their PHD's, and of course he helps them with their house,car,money, and oil changes too. It must be nice to be a looney leftie and have Barack on your side. (sigh)

Well the Governator is 0-2 in special (spending, btw)elections that were both soundly defeated. I think we need to hold another special election to vote for never having another special election for a "vital" spending issue ever again.
Oh wait...almost forgot about the June 2 SPECIAL ELECTION for yet another "vital" spending issue.
But this one is "for the children..." Right?

Its going to get worse before it gets better. The only real fix will be when its gets bad enough that the light goes on with voters that socialist states don't work - they never have and they never will. If you want to see change, you are going to have to vote out the left-wing-loon legislature.
Another good step would be to have the state assembly and senate disrict boundaries drawn up by a completly impartial computer. This is the only way to break the incumbents lock and restore competitive elections.
Lastly, there is no hope of having a balanced budget until they jettison the HUGE cost of illegal immigration.
a resident of Another Pleasanton neighborhood

Tu, a.k.a. Massive Unit ;),
I agree with the points you make.
Modify defined benefits for all state workers.
All local, county and state workers should have to risk termination of employment if they strike.
Eliminate redundant local, county and state departments.
All local, county and state employees must take a salary reduction of 5%.
Those making over $85k take a 10% cut.
Over $100k get a 15% cut.
Over $150k take a 20% cut.
Other ideas?

Don't do it by salary level but rather take 10% off of all salaries.

It is always interesting to me that when given the chance to spend "someone else's" money, people have zero problem with voting for a tax increase. When given the chance to let others destroy their lives, no one cares and votes for "other people's" choices.
Then, seemingly, when taxes will finally really affect the bottom line of every individual in this state, suddenly everyone gets a conscience. When someone else's "rights" are now going to intrude on yours, now you don't want them to have it.
Knowing your own convictions, and staying consistent in them even if you feel uncomfortable (how "easy" it would be to just vote for Measure G and get past the cutbacks), that is how you vote with conviction and maintain real values.

True economic reform and prudence will only be attained when we give people back their own money to invest in the items they want it spent on and thus this will drive a thriving economy with low unemployment and meaningful revenue. In reading the WSJ recommendations for California they suggest we adopt an across the board flat tax of 6% on the state income tax level and also significantly reduce the sales tax rate. This way we will GAIN revenue as currently there are estimates that as many as 17,000,000 in California pay no income tax at all per LA Times editorial (surprisingly) of April 16th.

Fred, I like the progressive increase for two reasons. First, the pain is felt the higher up the food chain you go. This works as a payback to all the tax and spenders that advocate progressive income taxing.
On that note, the low paid social worker making $35k per year won't be hit as hard as the big cheese making$150k+.
a resident of Mohr Elementary School

The way you are discussing would create class warfare and it is not at all healthy for the economy. 10% or whatever from everybody is relative and fair and can be defended. Why punished the rich for busting their hump and being sucessful as they are the ones who create jobs for you and me. By the way I am not rich.

Have the Legislature in session a maximum of two months a year. A number of other states have part-time legislatures and are better run. The Texas legislature is typically in session for three months or less EVERY OTHER YEAR! They are in session only during the odd-numbered years. The result is that the legislators are not professional politicians. They earn there livings some other way, such as being businessmen are having to meet their payrolls. Its time to get rid of the professional political hacks in Sacramento.
Once we get that done, then we can work on having Congress a part-time body. That the way it used to be. Think what that would do to the lobbyists.
a resident of Pleasanton Meadows
on May 23, 2009 at 1:29 pm
I hope that you all will take the time to write to your state assembly member, state senator and the governor as well as posting on here. The latest plan to "borrow" money from cities and counties to resolve the budget crisis will not rein in spending but will hurt our local services.
Don't miss out on the discussion!

Standard Ligatures
Standard Ligatures
The feature replaces a sequence of glyphs with a single glyph which is preferred for typographic purposes. FontFonts include at least ligatures for 'fi' and 'fl'.
Small Capitals
Small Capitals
Turns lowercase characters into Small Capitals. Forms related to Small Capitals, such as Oldstyle Figures, may be included.
Small Capitals From Capitals
Small Capitals From Capitals
This feature turns capital characters into Small Capitals. It is generally used for words which would otherwise be set in all caps, such as acronyms, but which are desired in small-cap form to avoid disrupting the flow of text.
Case-Sensitive Forms
Case-Sensitive Forms
By default, glyphs in a text face are designed to work with lowercase characters. This feature shifts various punctuation marks up to a position that works better with all-capital sequences or sets of lining figures. This feature changes also automatically Oldstyle Figures to Lining Figures.
Capital Spacing
Capital Spacing
The Capital Spacing feature adjusts inter-glyph spacing for all-capital text. Most typefaces contain capitals and lowercase characters, and the capitals are positioned to work with the lowercase. When capitals are used for words, they need more space between them for legibility and aesthetics.
Lining Figures
Lining Figures
This feature changes selected figures from oldstyle to the lining form.
Proportional Figures
Proportional Figures
This feature replaces figure glyphs set on uniform (tabular) widths with corresponding glyphs set on glyph-specific (proportional) widths.
Tabular Figures
Tabular Figures
This feature replaces figure glyphs set on proportional widths with corresponding glyphs set on uniform (tabular) widths.
The feature replaces figures separated by a slash with common (diagonal) fractions. The number of fractions in a font may vary. FontFonts include fractions for at least 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4.
This feature replaces selected figures which precede a slash with numerator figures, and replaces the typographic slash with the fraction slash.
Replaces selected figures which follow a slash with denominator figures in order to build additional fractions.
This feature replaces default alphabetic glyphs with the corresponding ordinal forms for use after figures.
Scientific Inferiors
Scientific Inferiors
This feature replaces Lining or Oldstyle Figures with inferior figures (smaller glyphs which sit lower than the standard baseline, primarily for chemical or mathematical notation). May also replace lowercase characters with alphabetic inferiors.
Lining or oldstyle figures are replaced with superior figures (primarily for footnote indication), and lowercase letters are replaced with superior letters (primarily for abbreviated French titles).
This feature may replace a default glyph with a subscript glyph.

Vernon Davis worries me. And Alex Smith's running worries me. 49ers d is nasty. It is a very tough test for the Giants especially with how injured they are.
Spin that Webb young Davis
Nice writeup OP. I want your thoughts on this possible scenario: The 49ers are down by two possessions to the Giants (Any moment in the game will suffice) due to an unexpected surge by the Giants offense. Do the 49ers make any changes to their offensive gameplan and if they go to the pass more, is there confidence in any of their receiving options sans Vernon Davis?
I respect what the 49ers bring out on the field but I do want to see them win a come from behind game this year to solidify their mental toughness in such a situation. The Falcons did that against the Panthers and that's why I have them ranked as the best team in the NFL as of this moment.
The G-Men are resilient, I'm as nervous as anyone. But with Eli manning our ship I'm confident going to battle against anyone.
A classy post...see you Sunday.
I stopped fighting my inner demons. We're on the same side now.
you can go gloat about your team on your own MB. nobody here cares.
btw, what happened to A.smith against the gmen in the playoffs last year? Oh yea..now i remember....what was it, 2 completions to WR's?
I always felt like he just needed the right coach
and the 49er defense scares the hell out of me
we also have no answer for Vernon Davis
if the Giants pass rush cannot get to Smith it will be a long day
I can see lots of over pursuit resulting in getting slashed by the screen pass
still predict a Giant victory 37 - 34 on a late FG
should be a fun watch
can't wait
Last edited by YATittle1962; 10-08-2012 at 03:43 PM.
I expect to see Eli drop back ALOT this game and I bet Gilbride will be focusing on a more west coast style of offense with quick slants and back shoulder throws.
Counter SF's run game with
-efficiency on offense
-avoid drive stalling plays and penalties
-no turnovers

Mossberg Factory Replacement Shotgun Choke Tubes go in flush with the top of the barrel. The replacement tubes are Corrosion-resistant for use with all types of shot. 12 gauge and 20 gauge.
Turkey – This choke is a good all-around turkey choke for birds under varying circumstances. .685 constriction is tight but not so tight that misses occur at close ranges. Only to be used with Hevi-Shot and plated lead shot.
Full – Can serve as a dual-purpose turkey tube and a long-range trap or upland bird-hunting choke. With a constriction of .695 it throws an even, tight pattern, equally at home killing turkeys up to 30 yards and busting clays from the 27-yard line. To be used only with Hevi-Shot, steel and plated lead shot.
Extra Full - Lead only
Improved Modified – A perfect choke for those in-between situations. Tighter then modified, more open then full. .700 constriction.
Modified – A good all-around choke. With steel shot, it patterns like a full choke with lead, for the ultimate long-range goose choke. With lead, it gives a more open pattern that is perfect for wary roosters, high-flying doves and clay pigeons. .705 constriction.
Improved Cylinder – A perfect all-around hunting choke. With lead it provides an open pattern that works great for most upland hunting and sporting clays courses. With steel shot, it patterns tighter and is ideal for most waterfowl over decoy situations. .715 constriction.
Skeet – An extremely wide-open choke with lead, it works best under tight quarters such as some sporting clay stands and formal skeet ranges. Also works well with steel loads for fast-flying teal at close range. .720 constriction.
Rifled – Turn your smoothbore into a slug shooting machine with this rifled choke tube. Great for deer or bear or anytime you want to wring the most accuracy from your slug shooting.
Image does not represent all chokes listed.

Like many of you, I've had Shazam on my iPhone since the app launched in 2008. What started out as a party trick for me (look what MY phone can do!) slowly, over time, morphed into a "So what are the kids listening to these days?" necessity. But one thing that remained frustrating about the app was that it couldn't tell Mozart from Bach. In fact, it didn't seem to have ANY classical music catalog in its database.
Well, it's nowhere close to perfect now, but in recent months, Shazam has actually started identifying most of the major pieces of classical music I've thrown its way. And, this will come as little surprise, even giving me the specific recording I'm listening to in that moment complete with conductor and orchestra names and year recorded. This is especially important when trying to discern the difference between, say, Glenn Gould's Goldberg Variations recorded in '55 vis-à-vis the one recorded in '81. (For the, er, record, I prefer the '55… less singing! heh. heh.)
The good folks at Shazam haven't done any major press around this advancement. My hunch is they're keeping it on the DL until they expand their archive. So for now, this post on this blog might be the only Google-able news on the app's classical music evolution. A little over a year ago, I wrote about Shazam's inability to tag classical music over on the mental floss blog and people in the comments were suggesting other apps like Soundhound. I've tried them, but this new version of Shazam is much, much better than all the others. Plus, I'm totally loving the new UI. It's a much improved tagging experience. Now if they'd only get rid of the annoying ads! Sigh. Well, "I can dream, can't I?" (Written by Sammy Fain with lyrics by Irving Kahal, published in 1938, from the musical, Right This Way.)

I am looking to help market my wife's Honey Bee themed glass desings to more shops. Can you PM me the Brick and Mortar stores in your area that sell bee keeping supply's.? I am looking for the mom and pop stores not the Mann Lakes and Dadants. Basically the people that buy from them and resell to us.
Her stuff sells really well in this type of places. It is very artsy. We sell really well in stores like Made in WA and Exclusively WA. Her bee stuff sells in the local B&M stores up here also so I was trying to get a list of all of the stores Nation Wide or WW to contact so they can carry a few pieces of her work. Names, City's and locations numbers if you have them. I can Google and find the rest of the info.
PM me if you can find the time to let me know what stores you visit locally to you.
Thank you in advance for all your help.
