SUBMITTED: Sunday, June 20, 2010POSTED: Sunday, June 20, 2010
First, I'm sorry that you had that experience. It's awful when anyone purchases a product or service and have a bad experience. But I can honestly say that I've been with Only1 Visa for about a year or so now and I have had nothing but a positive experience. I will say that the website can be a little iffy but other than that, I love my Only1 Visa. As a matter of fact, I'm no longer using my regular credit cards, I just use Only1.
When I first purchased Only1 it came with a temporary card, made out of cardboard or something. That's what was purchased in the store. When I got home, I registered the card and they sent me the actual card (plastic) in the mail. I did not have to pay an additional $5.00. The $5.00 ($4.95) to be exact was charged at the store that I purchased the card. I paid that in addition to the money that I put on the card. If I remember correctly I put $50 on the card at the time of purchase. My total came to $54.95.
As I mentioned, I've had this card for over a year and I've never paid more than $4.95, which I pay every time I add money to the card. There has never been any additional fees, not once. I get the daily e-mails of my account balance and I've never had any problems with the card.
I will have to work out the issues with their website however because I want to use the MoneySheild feature and was told that I have to do that online. And I was told that there is a one time fee of $9.95 to activate the feature.
I think it's a great card and recommend it for anyone that would like to get a better hold on their money and spending.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Steve Jobs has reached out and touched one of the Apple faithful, and the news is oh-so-good: iPhone OS 4.0 will be getting a universal inbox. The Apple CEO has famously responded to end user questions sent to his email address, albeit in his distinctive, curt style of one or two word answers, but many iPhone users will be so thrilled at this news they won't care how it is delivered.
According to 9 to 5 Mac, Steve Jobs responded positively to a user's request about being able to import data from Google Docs to iWork and the iPad, and a separate query about a single mailbox for multiple email accounts.

OK, I have about a $1,000 budget for some extra guns.
I ran across today a Sig 1911 compact (4.25'') with a duotone finish and crimson trace grips...its lightly used and priced at $895, I think thats a a decent buy yes?
But, the cheapskate in me screams in my ear and says buy the cheaper Rock Island, for this money I could buy full size RI and a compact RI or ATI compact.
I hadn't seen much about the ATI guns, they are the same as the Ri's but don't have the lifetime warranty right?
or should I buy a fancy pants Kimber or the Sig and shut my piehole.
Colt if available. If I say Kimber, others will tell you no way. RIA makes an OK 1911, but for a couple hundred more I would (and did) get another Kimber.
Kimbers are more then a couple hundy more, I can get an RIA 5'' to my door for about 415 with FFL fee's
I have a full-sized SIG 1911 and honestly, I don't really recommend them. When I initially bought the SIG, it was when they were still called GSR 1911s, and after 3 trips back to the factory for persistent extractor problems, it was finally replaced under warranty. The warranty replacement gun came with an out of spec slide stop, and they had changed over to a far less pleasant trigger and grip safety since my original gun was made. So, I had a replacement gun that couldn't lock back on the last shot, ever, and it was less comfortable to shoot than the original had been. A Springfield GI slide stop fixed the problem, but overall I was not too impressed. I have a hard time finding any RIA owners bad-mouthing their guns. However, as far as the SIG goes, we just had a post a few days ago from a member who had the same problem I had, so I remain skeptical of SIG's 1911 line.
Good Info, I will scratch the sig.
I want a colt..but have a hard time with price and features, haven't convinced my dad to sell me his colt commander 70 series 1911.
Compact is a nice feature, I see RI has a mid sized model but haven't seen much in the lines of prices. or avail.
The Sig is a good gun as are the RIA's you mentioned but my money went with an STI Spartan III (low end for STI ) officers length.
Ccccccc what? Ccccccccccc Hawks!
Don't scratch the Sig just because one guy had a bad experience.
My sig is friggin awesome. There, now you're even.
another vote for the C3.....awesome
no laser, i put on hogues and am up to 800 rounds.
it took near 300 for it to learn it was a gun and runslike a champ now
two more trips to the range and its my carry gun for sure
its not keen on CCI flying ashtrays nor LSWC's
eats RN without a trouble--200 more rounds and it goes to work.

If I couldnt get a Colt, or maybe Springer, then I would just save myself alot of wasted effort and get a darn Glock.

You can get a new Springfield for about the same or less, depending on the model, as the Sig, and it will have a lifetime warranty on it.

What's a hundred bucks one way or the other? Please buy one that's made in the U.S. There are some great ones......Colt, Kimber, Ruger and more.
Okay since no one had said anything I will recommend a ruger. I love mine and it has been great for several hundred rounds. I don't know that you can get more bang for the buck and its made in the good ol us of a
I'll throw in my $.02 about ArmsCor guns. I had a High Standard Crusader that ran beautifully! Shot like a dream and looked pretty to boot. Never had any FTF, FTE, or any major malfunctions of any kind. Right up to the point that the ejector bent enough to prevent the slide from moving. I figured it was probably just a part that fell below spec, since I seem to hear nothing but good news about ArmsCor firearms. Anyway, I sent it back expecting a few weeks to a couple months at the most. 3 months later I hadn't heard a peep about it. I had my gunsmith call in and check on it, and after a few days they got back to him and said that it was "unfixable." Great. They were nice enough to offer a replacement of a different model, but by the time I got a chance to go talk to my gunsmith, they had called him back and said that the original gun had shipped back. So I got the gun back a week later and guess what? All they had done was bend the ejector straight, rather than replacing it. On top of that, it had obviously been dropped and had a nice dent and a huge scratch on the rear sight. 2 magazines through it and the ejector was right back where it started and I had a nice paperweight. Customer service is a big deal to me, and that wasn't a real positive experience. IMO, if a company can't make a reasonable attempt to correct a problem, I want nothing to do with them. I traded that gun in towards a Taurus PT1911 and couldn't be happier.
Their guns are generally very high quality, but their customer service is unacceptable, IMO.

New products for reconstructed nipples?
- Question from BrookesN: Besides using Gore-Tex or AlloDerm, is there a new product to use in the reconstructed nipple to not make it TOO firm, nor go flat?
- Answers - Marisa Weiss After mastectomy, the first step in reconstruction is aimed at recreating the breast mound. After that project has been finished, many women choose to have nipple reconstruction. There are various ways of accomplishing this. You can do the simplest solution, which is to have only a tattoo done. There is a fabulous 3D tattoo artist that I would highly recommend. You can check him out at www.vinniemyers.com. He is located in the Baltimore area and has an excellent reputation. If you want to have a nipple with some projection, then some surgical intervention is usually required. Some plastic surgeons rearrange the skin of the mound using an origami technique. Other surgeons may borrow skin from another area -- usually in or around the crotch area -- and use that to build a nipple and areola. It is not always easy to create a projection that is equal on both side and stays up. That is, many women say their nipples flatten out. This can also happen unevenly. Getting the perfect set of nipples is a challenge. You are most likely to get the best result from someone who is an expert in this field. There are some products that are under investigation that can be inserted under the skin to create a little bump, but they're not ready for prime time.

As many of you were quick to point out, Microsoft did not actually confirm pricing during the launch for Kinect. Now it has...
Rather than go the traditional route and put out an public announcement for the hugely anticipated device formerly known as Project Natal (a name I still much prefer), the company has instead just quietly released it on its store.
At the graphic shows, $149.99 is the RRP Microsoft is sticking too which works out as £101.54 so fingers (naively?) crossed for a £99.99 price tag in Blighty. This price should stick too given Microsoft boldy states in the listing: "Pre-orders are covered by our Pre-Order Price Guarantee and can be reviewed, updated, or canceled at any time before pre-order items are released." Given you can pre-order the Kinect now that would seem to nail things down.
All in all - fanfare or not - this seems a rather positive development for a potentially revolutionary piece of kit given it will set you back roughly the same as putting together a single PlayStation Move controller (39.99 euros + 29.99 euros + the PlayStation Eye).
So are you now convinced or do you actually play games without the express intention of exercising yourself into a clumsy, sweaty mess?

text: Someone here will know this, I am sure... Background: I've contributed annually for many years to a traditional IRA (I didn't qualify for a Roth IRA because my income was too high). For the last 7 years, I have also made the maximum contribution annually to a 401(k). Last year, because the laws changed, my new financial advisor had me convert the traditional IRA money into a Roth IRA. I will pay taxes on that money this year. He also set me up to make monthly IRA contributions which are debited from my checking account. Question #1: he set this up so that the money goes directly into a Roth IRA. My understanding is that, since my income still exceeds the Roth IRA limits, I must contribute to a tranditional IRA and then (as long as the laws allow it) covert that money to a Roth IRA periodically. He says it doesn't matter- as long as I was going to covert it to a Roth annually, it is okay to just skip that step and go directly into a Roth. This doesn't make sense to me because I think I need to pay taxes on that money now, rather than defer them. Who, if either of us, is correct? Question #2: My tax advisor told me that, since I contribute to a 401(k), I "cannot have an IRA." He is a strange fellow, often lacking the ability to communicate clearly in non-CPA terms. He insists that I cannot have an IRA at all. I think he means that I cannot use an IRA to lower my taxable income because I am already using the 401(k) to do that. Again, who, if either of us, is correct? And either way, wouldn't any IRA contributions on top of the 401(k) contributions need to be a traditional IRA?

Recently I have noticed something really interesting. I have started to get
emails from a website claiming that it is a community for VB programmers. The
emails had some technical topics regarding to Visual Basic programming. At first
it looked genuine to me but after some time things have changed and I started
to receive several emails a day with very funny topics like "How can I set
timer's label text?" or "how should I open Visual Basic?' So
they started to show up! Aren't they?
They even had a website dedicated to their fake community. I really don't know
if our email addresses are that valuable to them (spammers) but if it is then I
have thousand of them ready for them. So be advised of such fake programming
lovers and never reply to such emails or never even visit the links enclosed in
your email as those links have different destination than what they show and
will confirm that your email is real.

A Street's New Day

ALLEN STREET is interested in, but not especially excited over, the tidings that city authorities have decided to convert it into a broad and probably tree-lined boulevard. Breadth and a lining of trees will constitute radical departures for the slim thoroughfare that has never been much more than a rather wide alley covered by a canopy of elevated structure.

Minnesota mulls a bonding "jobs" bill, but does government stimulus really work the way its backers say?

One-person businesses are a crucial part of Minnesota's rural economy but does the government see it that way?

Well, I agree he looks like part Bassett or Corgi. But I don't think he's Blue Heeler. His markings are more like Plott Hound, Catahoula Leopard Dog or Dutch Shepherd. To get the ears right it would have to be Bassett/Dutch Shepherd, Corgi/Catahoula or Plott.

With all this hype about the "Swine Flu" it has brought back a story to mind. When I was at Great Lakes, a fellow First Class Gunner's Mate made Chief. He had had vale replacement surgery. That's right, in 1976, when all this open heart surgery was new, the Navy doctors replaced a valve in his heart with a "Pig's" heart valve. At his time, Chief's initiation was far more demanding than it is today. Far more "Trust" was required from the Prospective Chief than today. I am not saying what we did was better, I am saying it was far more wide open. One of the Prospective Chief's "Charges" was being the culprit who caused "Swine Flu" and made it so all of the "Real Chiefs" would have to get a vaccination!! In any case, the Cardiologist was worried that all of the festivities would ruin his good work. So, the Cardiologist volunteered to go through "Initiation" WITH the new Chief. Since I was not a Chief at that time, I don't know how it went,, but both survived and the Chief went on to complete his career.
I asked the Chief later, if they would have to replace the "Pig" valves. He said "Yes, every ten years or so." I told him they should have used Velcro to close him.
Swine flu is not new, a Chief Gunner's Mate started it!!

"The S&P 500 VIX Short-Term Futures Index measures the return from a daily rolling long position in the first- and second-month VIX futures contracts, resulting in a constant one- month maturity profile."
"The S&P 500 VIX Mid-Term Futures Index measures the return from a daily rolling long position in the fourth-, fifth-, sixth- and seventh-month VIX futures contracts, resulting in a constant five-month maturity profile." S&P Press Release
The VIX measures options on the S&P 500 or its implied volatility. It is inversely related to the stock market and will spike if the S&P 500 gets dumped. When market participants become anxious the market gets volatile and option prices are bid up to play the swings. When we were in a steady bull market from 2002-2007 the options on the S&P were very cheap since there were no big moves in the index. A few years ago CBOE rolled out VIX futures and option contracts on those futures. VIX futures trade differently than the VIX spot price. There are risks involved with these ETNs, read the articles and fact sheets below for more information.
I started watching the VIX when it hit all time lows (under 10) in early 2007. Veteran investors were warning about future market volatility and were shorting the indices. I wish I could find the Forbes article but they were loading up on DXD (short Dow Jones Industrials) and getting ready for an upsurge in volatility and a market correction. They were 6-8 months early but they made a killing if they held through 2008. If the investors bought VIX futures they would have magnified their gains since volatility exploded by the end of 2008 due to the collapse of the banking sector. Look at this 2 year chart comparing the VIX (spot) and S&P on a percentage basis. I also charted out the technicals and it looks like it's building up a wedge waiting for a big move. Hopefully it breaks down to test the 200 day moving average, makes lower lows, the S&P rallies to 1000 and Nouriel Roubini puts spike 3200%. Here's the ^VIX quote at Yahoo Finance.
These ETFs will be a great way to hedge against market crashes or even as a speculative short to play a market bottom. Check out the Volatility Sonar report via OptionMonsterTV which gives updates from the VIX pit.
So will the VIX ETN be a good tool for retail investors to hedge against market volatility? It looks like the ETN won't realize the FULL potential of VIX spot spikes since they are futures but I still like the idea. Another thing... These notes would be backed by Barclays which is having some issues at the moment. Maybe they should wait a month or two.

A rumor that we are almost certain isn't true, yet too good not to muse about: Casey Stoner is said to be making a return to motorcycle racing, competing in the prestigious Suzuka 8hr endurance race for Honda.
The rumor comes from the Sportmediaset blog of Max Temporali — usually one of Italy's more reputable sporting publications. Given Stoner's contentious relationship with the media, especially the Italian media, one can guess as to the motivations involved though.

Thanks for helping us sort this video!
Thanks for helping us associate the correct Pornstars to this video!
Help Us: Do these Pornstars appear in this video?
Pornstar Name:
now i've seen a girl douching. check that off the list...
She is washing in pussy water!!!
SimCity music ftw
Very interesting. I have to admit I never watched a woman douche before.
she keeps a clean pussy, weird vid. nice girl
Nobody likes smooth jazz anymore (if anyone ever did). Not even in porn. It's archaic and non-stimulating and it took a lot out of this video. The video itself was very entertaining though. Just being able to hear her quietly cleaning out her pussy with the splashing and sloshing of the water would have been great. I also love the lack of pretentious moaning, groaning, and otherwise FAKE orgasm sounds in the video, people honestly do get tired of that shit and I'm not the only one.
Some errors occurred, please try again later

Wells Brothers HTML version
A Wintry Crucible
The dreaded winter was at hand. Scarcely a day passed but the harbingers of air and sky
sounded the warning approach of the forthcoming siege. Great flights of song and game
birds, in their migration southward, lent an accent as they twittered by or honked in mid-
air, while scurrying clouds and squally weather bore witness of approaching winter.
The tent was struck and stored away. The extra saddle stock was freed for the winter, and
located around Hackberry Grove. The three best horses were given a ration of corn, and
on Dell's return from the railroad, the cattle were put under herd. The most liberal
freedom must be allowed; with the numbers on hand, the term _close_ herding would
imply grazing the cattle on a section of land, while _loose_ herding would mean four or
five times that acreage. New routes must be taken daily; the weather would govern the
compactness and course of the herd, while a radius of five miles from the corral was a
liberal range.
The brothers were somewhat familiar with winter on the plains. Cold was to be expected,
but if accompanied by sunshine and a dry atmosphere, there was nothing to fear. A warm,
fine day was usually the forerunner of a storm, the approach of which gave little warning,
requiring a sleepless vigilance to avoid being taken unaware or at a disadvantage.
The day's work began at sunrise. Cattle are loath to leave a dry bed, and on throwing
open the corral gates, it was often necessary to enter and arouse the herd. Thereafter,
under normal conditions, it was a matter of pointing, keeping up the drag cattle, allowing
the herd to spread and graze, and contracting and relaxing as occasion required. In
handling, it was a decided advantage that the little nucleus had known herd restraint, in
trailing overland from Texas, and were obedient, at a distance of fifty yards, to the
slightest whistle or pressure of a herdsman. Under favorable conditions, the cattle could
be depended on to graze until noon, when they were allowed an hour's rest, and the circle
homeward was timed so as to reach the corral and water by sunset. The duties of each day
were a repetition of the previous one, the moods of the old and younger cattle, sedate and
frolicsome, affording the only variety to the monotony of the task.
"Holding these cattle is going to be no trouble at all," said Dell, as they rode homeward,
at the end of the first day's herding. "My horse never wet a hair to-day."
"Don't shout before you're out of the woods," replied Joel. "The first of April will be soon
enough to count our chickens. To-morrow is only the beginning of December."
"Last year we shucked corn up until Christmas."
"Husking corn is a burnt bridge with me. We're herding cattle this winter. Sit straight in
your saddle."

Monoclonal Antibody Protocols
€ 119,99
Lieferbar innerhalb von 2-3 Tagen
Mai 1995
BeschreibungSince the initial description of techniques to immortalize anti body-producing B-lymphocytes by fusion with tissue culture-adapted myeloma cells, methods have been developed to produce monoclonal antibodies of defined specificity in multiple animal species. Stable hybrids can be readily produced in mice using a number of myeloma and hybridoma cell lines. To obviate the problem of identifying fusion partners in other animal species, xenohybrids have been produced using B-lymphocytes from the relevant species and mouse myeloma cells. The use of xenohybrids has minimized the problem of obtain ing stable antibody-producing hybrids in all species examined thus far. Although alternative techniques are being developed to produce monoclonal antibodies by molecular methods, hybridoma technol ogy will remain the technology of choice for producing monoclonal antibodies for a variety of applications in research and industry. The objective of Monoclonal Antibody Protocols is to provide investigators with a set of methods for producing and using mono clonal antibodies in biomedical, agricultural, and biological sciences. The book is not intended to provide methodology for all possible applications, but rather a series of methods presented in an easy-- follow format that can be used by new and established investiga tors, graduate and postgraduate fellows, and technical staff.

Kia February sales: Optima and Soul lead sales
All-new K900 flagship sedan to begin arriving in showrooms soon
IRVINE, Calif. – Kia Motors America (KMA) today reported February sales of 41,218 vehicles, led by the U.S.-built Optima midsize sedan and the totally transformed Soul, with 11,226 and 10,584 units sold, respectively.
February also saw the continuation of the marketing campaign to introduce the all-new 2015 K9001 flagship sedan as well as the largest showcase of the company's Clean Mobility program at the Chicago Auto Show with the global debut of the brand's first-ever electric vehicle for the U.S. market – the Soul EV2 – and the refreshed 2014 Optima Hybrid. The K900 is scheduled to arrive in select dealer showrooms beginning this month. Optima Hybrid is on sale now, and the Soul EV will arrive in the fall.
The Kia Optima has become Kia's sales leader, selling more than 150,000 unitsin 2012 and gaining worldwide acclaim for its European-inspired design and fun-to-drive performance.
In a segment long known for bland functionality more than emotional appeal, the 2014 Optima cements the model's status as a trailblazer combining style, substance and value. Refining the Optima's sculpted, high-end appearance, Kia's Frankfurt-based design team focused on the vehicle's front and rear fascias and the brand's signature tabbed grille. The vehicle's bold stance and aerodynamic shape are further accentuated by updated rear diffusers and a sweeping trunk lid.
The all-new 2014 Kia Soul has been named to About.com's "Best New Cars of 2014" list, marking yet another award for the iconic urban passenger vehicle. The all-new Soul was one of 12 vehicles recognized by About.com and was touted by editors for its overall execution, expensive feel and tremendous value.
"Keeping what made the first-generation Soul special while addressing areas for improvement was no easy task, but our dealers and customers – and now the editors of About.com – have confirmed that we hit the mark," said Michael Sprague, executive vice president of sales and marketing, Kia Motors America (KMA). "With its very passionate following of fans, it was vitally important that the all-new 2014 Soul retain its iconic design, functionality, and value while providing a more premium interior and improved driving dynamics."
The Kia Soul has always been about self-expression, and its fun and funky personality, as well as an abundance of features and amenities at a great price, won over the About.com editors. The all-new Soul displays its own individuality through a blend of unique design, fun-to-drive characteristics and premium upgrades intended to set it apart from the pack. A playful color palette, including Soul-exclusive colors such as Solar Yellow, Kale Green, and Inferno Red, along with sporty new wheel designs, pump up the dynamic equation that has made Soul such a dominate competitor in the "boxy" car segment.

An Air New Zealand flight from Auckland to Tauranga was diverted to Hamilton this afternoon after a problem with the aircraft's landing gear.
An Air New Zealand spokeswoman said flight NZ2710 was diverted due to an issue with the automatic system controlling the landing gear.
"The landing gear was deployed using the back-up manual system which is designed for this purpose.
"The aircraft is now being reviewed by engineers and customers on this service will be transported the rest of the way to Tauranga by road."
There were 18 passengers were onboard the Beech 1900D aircraft, the Air NZ spokeswoman said.
The engineering issue would result in the cancellation of two services this evening, she said.

We know better than to skip our all-important face-washing ritual, but when we're traveling there's not always a sink within reach. Lucky for us, these quick and convenient cleansing wipes make it easy to stay fresh mid-flight, post-excursion, or anytime we need a pick-me-up. They erase dirt and makeup while simultaneously moisturizing your skin. The oil-free formula is great for breakout-prone and sensitive skin, and won't cause any irritation. Plus, the biodegradable wipes have a refreshing scent courtesy of its lovely blend of botanicals.
I like the foil packet version of these wipes that Birchbox sends out as samples better than the full-size version you can buy on the store. Having the packets separated individually makes them awesome for traveling when you're limited on space, especially when you're flying and can't have more than a few bottles in your carry on. The wipes themselves do a good job cleaning off makeup and don't irritate my skin or eyes. I wouldn't say they replace a good liquid eye makeup remover and cleanser, but for travel they are a nice thing to have on you.3

The gun rights group, The Gun Owners Civil Rights Alliance, is taking aim at Republicans in the Minnesota Senate for not taking up a bill that would change when it's legal for a person to shoot someone in self defense.
The Minnesota House already passed the bill and supporters were lobbying the Senate to pass it as well. The Gun Owners Civil Rights Alliance sent out an action alert today that says the Senate has decided to not take up the bill this session.
In a strongly worded e-mail, the group suggests that Senate Republicans "made a deliberate, political decision to refuse to put the bill on Governor Dayton's desk." The e-mail also reminds supporters to tell their Senators that "gun owners vote – and that they have very long memories.
The issue is a dicey political issue for Republicans. On the one hand, the NRA and other gun rights group align themselves more with the GOP. But law enforcement groups have lines up against the bill. Gov. Dayton has also suggested he would veto it.
I contacted spokespeople for Senate Majority Leader Amy Koch to see if GOP Senate Majority Leader Amy Koch has decided to shelve the bill for the session.
I'll post their response, if it becomes available. Senate GOP spokesman Michael Brodkorb declined to say whether the caucus is shelving the bill.
Here's part of the e-mail that The Gun Owners Civil Rights Alliance sent to supporters:
We have received word that the Republican leadership in the Minnesota Senate has decided to kill The Defense of Dwelling and Person Act by not bringing it to the Senate floor for a vote.
The Senate leadership did not sacrifice SF 1357 for other priorities. They made a deliberate, political decision to refuse to put the bill on Governor Dayton's desk.
The Senate leadership was not forced into this retreat by the DFL or anti-gun groups. They decided, unilaterally, to give up on this important civil rights legslation.
The Senate leadership did not run out of time. The Senate doesn't have to finish before Monday at midnight. They could still hear the bill if the leadership does their job.
Please call and email the Senate leadership NOW, and respectfully demand that the bill get an immediate hearing.
You might also want to email and call your own senator, especially if he/she is a Republican, with the same message.
Tell them that Minnesota gun owners vote — and that they have very long memories.

Waverley HTML version
Chapter 26
An Eclaircissement
The hint which the Chieftain had thrown out respecting Flora was not unpremeditated. He
had observed with great satisfaction the growing attachment of Waverley to his sister, nor
did he see any bar to their union, excepting the situation which Waverley's father held in
the ministry, and Edward's own commission in the army of George II. These obstacles
were now removed, and in a manner which apparently paved the way for the son's
becoming reconciled to another allegiance. In every other respect the match would be
most eligible. The safety, happiness, and honourable provision of his sister, whom he
dearly loved, appeared to be ensured by the proposed union; and his heart swelled when
he considered how his own interest would be exalted in the eyes of the ex-monarch to
whom he had dedicated his service, by an alliance with one of those ancient, powerful,
and wealthy English families of the steady Cavalier faith, to awaken whose decayed
attachment to the Stuart family was now a matter of such vital importance to the Stuart
cause. Nor could Fergus perceive any obstacle to such a scheme. Waverley's attachment
was evident; and as his person was handsome, and his taste apparently coincided with her
own, he anticipated no opposition on the part of Flora. Indeed, between his ideas of
patriarchal power, and those which he had acquired in France respecting the disposal of
females in marriage, any opposition from his sister, dear as she was to him, would have
been the last obstacle on which he would have calculated, even had the union been less
Influenced by these feelings, the Chief now led Waverley in quest of Miss Mac-Ivor, not
without the hope that the present agitation of his guest's spirits might give him courage to
cut short what Fergus termed the romance of the courtship. They found Flora, with her
faithful attendants, Una and Cathleen, busied in preparing what appeared to Waverley to
be white bridal favours. Disguising as well as he could the agitation of his mind,
Waverley asked for what joyful occasion Miss Mac-Ivor made such ample preparation.
'It is for Fergus's bridal,' she said, smiling.
'Indeed!' said Edward; 'he has kept his secret well. I hope he will allow me to be his
'That is a man's office, but not yours, as Beatrice says,' retorted Flora.
'And who is the fair lady, may I be permitted to ask, Miss Mac- Ivor?'
'Did not I tell you long since, that Fergus wooed no bride but Honour?' answered Flora.
'And am I then incapable of being his assistant and counsellor in the pursuit of honour?'
said our hero, colouring deeply. 'Do I rank so low in your opinion?'

While jumping out of a plane or swimming with sharks might give you more of a rush, this scrub will add some slightly safer excitement to your shower routine. Gritty but still gentle enough to use several times a week, this electrifying essential helps skin look and feel smooth. The added peppermint oil provides a cooling tingle that lasts long after you've dried off.
I personally try to avoid any type of gritty exfoliants as they have been shown to cause micro-tears on the skin. However, I know a lot of people feel they haven't properly exfoliated if they don't feel the "grains" scrubbing their face. If you are in that category this is a very nice option that's refreshing (the peppermint tingles) and leaves the skin feeling softer and smooth. I have combination skin and I did not experience the tightening/dryness that others have mentioned afterwards. The packaging reminds me of a cheesy martial arts film.3

A mother will lobby New Zealand companies to pull their advertisements from a Latvia-based social networking site after her 12-year-old daughter was asked to provide explicit photos and subjected to extreme abuse while using it.
The woman, who declined to have her name published to protect her daughter, said local companies would be horrified to see what their brand was aligned with on ask.fm.
And yesterday, after Herald inquiries, State Insurance and BNZ both said they had taken steps to ensure their adverts would not appear on the website.
The police and NetSafe are in contact with ask.fm's owners about concerns, including that users can pose questions anonymously, enabling bullying and abuse.
The woman said within a month of her 12-year-old daughter signing up to the site she was asked to provide naked pictures of herself, told to kill herself and called a whore and slut.
She looked at her daughter's friends' profiles, and in three days found two children threatening to kill themselves in response to abuse on the website.
One, a 13-year-old girl, was sent violent pornography depicting a rape, was challenged to fights and was told, "I am outside your house watching you" at night.
"How a 13-year-old copes with all of that I just do not know, it gave me bad dreams for a few nights. The horrifying thing is you can send pornography in video or picture form, and there is no way to know what you are going to open."
She said she took screenshots of the worst abuse and reported it to ask.fm, but has had no response after six weeks.
She is working with other concerned parents from Britain - where the suicide of a 15-year-old was linked to ask.fm in April - to target the website's advertisers.
Ask.fm has more than 40 million users and is based in Latvia. A spokeswoman said content was monitored constantly and processes were in place to help prevent antisocial behaviour.
"We are committed to providing a fun, informative and safe service for our users - so we urge users who witness or experience unpleasant behaviour to report it to us immediately by clicking the 'report' button."
Genuine complaints were swiftly acted upon, she said.
NetSafe chief executive Martin Cocker said ask.fm was "saying the right things, but they are yet to be doing the right things".
"We should be clear that ask.fm doesn't advertise themselves as having a particularly safe environment."
Staying safe on ask.fm
*NetSafe recommends that young users of ask.fm prevent anonymous questions being posted by choosing "do not allow anonymous questions" in their privacy settings.
*It is possible to block an abusive user after receiving a second message from them, by pressing "block" next to each question.
*Users can also use a "report" button to notify the site of abuse.

Patrice Bergeron: 'It's not bad to win in regulation'
|05.19.13 at 1:43 pm ET
The Bruins are hoping to keep up their one-goal magic in Game 2 against the Rangers.
The Bruins can take a 2-0 lead against the Rangers with a win at TD Garden before the series shifts to New York for Games 3 and 4.
"The last two games were good," Shawn Thornton said. "I don't have a ton of confidence in overtime. I'm on the edge of my seat the whole time. But the experience we've had in the last few years, the core group here, helps in the extra frame. We're not jumpy, we're not edgy. We're trying to control pucks and play our game. That's helped. These are two teams pretty evenly matched. There are going to be a lot of close games. Let's hope we can continue to feed off that experience."
Thornton would like his fourth line to finally put one in the net after coming so close in the last two games.
"We're pretty deep as far as the lines go," Thornton said. "I'm still waiting for us to chip in. We've talked about it. Listen, we've been close. We've had a ton of chances. We're not putting them in right now. It'd be nice if we could take the pressure off some of the big boys with a couple of goals from our line.
"With three different guys [scoring in overtime so far], it's kind of been the thing for our team the last few years. When we're successful, we have everyone chipping at different times. That needs to continue for us to have success."
Daniel Paille, another member of the Merlot line with Thornton, was asked about what a 2-0 series lead would do for the Bruins.
"If the situation like that were to come today, we'd feel pretty good about ourselves but we try not to jump too far ahead," Paille said. "New York was down 2-0 in [last series] and they fought back to win the series and won two games at home right away. Obviously, we want to put ourselves in that position but we have to do the little things first."
"I think every second, every shift is important and it's about making sure you're ready for that one shift," Patrice Bergeron said when asked about the overtime magic. "It goes with experience, also. We've been through it so many times, we know what to expect. We know that we have to keep putting pressure to keep going at to get some results. It's not bad either to win in regulation, also. If you do have to go into overtime, you have to keep your poise but still keep attacking."

Here is the link to the 2011 Exchange
PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING FROM BELOW. I SPENT A LOT OF TIME AND EFFORT AND MORE THAN A FEW PEOPLE SEEMED TO PUT IN NONE. WE EVEN HAD PEOPLE NOT EVEN SEND ANYTHING. I had people PM me 4 or 5 times for the address they were supposed to send to. Some people made NO effort in sending their item on time. Others basically went through their junk GU and sent them off. If you will be one of these people this year----please don't join!
On the flip side we had some INCREDIBLE gifts given by people who are looked down upon here on the forum.

Let me start by saying, anyone that chooses to participate in this year's exchange, get your gifts mailed out on time so everyone can open their gift on Christmas. Put some effort into this.
Don't join to receive a gift but to give one.
The following excuses will not be accepted for not getting your gift mailed out in time:
1. I was cracking a PSA/BGS slab and accidently stabbed myself in the nuts with the screwdriver. Get over it, be a man.
2. My dog ate the gift and I need to wait till it passes in order for me to mail it.
3. I'm snowed in and I had to eat the cards because we ran out of food.
4. The mailman must have stolen it.
5. I work for Topps in the mail-in redemption department. I will be mailing the gift somewhere between 6-10 months....enjoy!
Also, if you want a certain member to be your recipient let me know. I would do this if you had something you knew that member would really love. (
This worked out really well last year
RULES and Regulations:
Each participant will be obligated to send a GIFT to another participant. The GIFT should have a cost value of approximately $25.00 or more (
This means you spend at least $25
). The GIFT should be gift wrapped according to the season BEFORE it is packaged to be mailed . On the outside of the package, should be placed the words BLOWOUT gift exchange. This should help people from just randomly ripping a package open.
The package should be mailed on or shortly after the 1st of December in order to insure a delivery in time for the holidays
. GIFTS should not be opened before the evening of the 24th of December. Besides the return address on the package, no identification of the sender is necessary.

GIFTS are limited in their nature to being sports related or at least something that PSA or BGS might grade or authenticate. (in the rare case of a nonsports card or autograph)
PLEASE put some effort into this. If someone wants to receive current Boston Celtics please don't send Chauncy Billups.
Let's have mature members who ALL make this a fun experience!
All effort will be made to match up givers to receivers interest wise, however there are NO guarantees.

MoDOT to finalize I-270 Environmental Study in North St. Louis County
North County residents will get one more chance to provide their thoughts on improving the I-270 corridor between the Chain of Rocks Bridge and I-70.
The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) will be seeking input from North County residents, commuters and businesses to finalize the I-270 North Environmental Assessment Study by the end of this year. The study began in 2013 but was put on hold in early 2015 due to limited funding.
"Because of last year's increase in Missouri's major sources of transportation revenue such as motor vehicle sales tax, driver license/registration fees and gas tax, we are able to resume this study. However, these increased revenues are not sustainable long-term. They simply help us maintain our existing system, and finish planning studies such as this one," said North County Area Engineer Lisa Kuntz.
The I-270 North Environmental Assessment identifies potential improvements for addressing safety, mobility, congestion, and aging infrastructure along the 15-mile corridor. In addition, it analyzes social, economic and environmental impacts to the community. Under federal government guidelines, such impacts have to be considered early so they can be avoided and/or minimized.
I-270 is a vital commuter and commercial corridor that connects five interstates. The study area includes 16 interchanges and the municipalities of Bridgeton, Hazelwood, Florissant, Calverton Park, Ferguson, Dellwood, Bellefontaine Neighbors and the City of St. Louis.
The I-270 North Environmental Assessment is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2016. At this time, MoDOT has identified partial funding for the I-270 North Corridor in its 2017-2021 Statewide Transportation Improvement Program. This partial funding can be used for design, right-of-way, or construction.

cuts to social spending, health, or education. It was hard for anyone to credibly claim the Budget was anything like the
austerity that is being forced upon governments in Europe.
The Budget's spending and policy initiatives are relatively modest and, other than increased funding for research
and innovation, there is little 'transformational' content which would quickly address New Zealand's economic imbalances.
As a result we will continue to see a long, slow grind as the economy recovers and rebalances. The benefits to the people on the street will take time to be realised.
That said, Federated Farmers is pleased with the Budget's projected path back to surplus in the 2014/15 year, although we know there is plenty of downside risks with the forecasts and global events could throw us off the path.
We have long called for Government spending to be capped and reduced over time to below 30 per cent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP). This is forecast to be achieved around 2015/16.
However, it will only be possible if fiscal discipline is maintained. History has taught us that there is no guarantee
it will endure. It is great the Government has committed to amending the Public Finance Act to cap future growth in
Government spending to the rate of inflation and population growth.
If only this provision had been in place in the 2000s it would have stopped the doubling in spending, much of it
wasteful, that took place in that decade. New Zealand would have been in a much stronger position to weather the impact of the global financial upheavals and the Canterbury earthquakes. All the Federation can say is, ''about time''.
One of the Budget's features were the changes to Livestock Tax. Making the Herd Scheme election irrevocable was
well-signalled. Federated Farmers accepts the need to change the rules to prevent farmers and their advisors from
inappropriately using the rules to receive unintended tax breaks.
Having no change was estimated to cost the Government $184 million over four years and we accept this simply is not tenable in the current environment. So, overall Federated Farmers gives Budget 2012 a pass mark.
