Unilever is one of the largest fast-moving consumer goods companies in the world. We make some of the world's most loved brands: Dove, Lynx, PG Tips, Ben & Jerrys, Marmite, Magnum, Persil and Hellmann's, to name a few. For a business whose very purpose is to create a brighter future, that future begins in Research & Development (R&D). This is the hotbed of ideas for brands, products, packaging, manufacturing and technology. Your work could impact millions across the world.
What will I be doing?
You'll be undertaking research to understand what consumers want and need, and developing the technology and science to bring new innovations to life. You'll be helping to make our brands even healthier, more appealing, more efficient and more environmentally friendly – improving our products in any way possible.

You will be a motivated and ambitious future leader who can offer their expertise in chemical/biological/physical/engineering/food related science or similar discipline. You will understand the importance of commercial success and be passionate about making an impact, contributing towards a more sustainable brighter future through exciting and forward thinking innovations.
Our people have the opportunity to create a brighter future every day on a local level, across Europe and the globe. Working within R&D across our four big categories: Personal Care, Home Care, Foods and Refreshment, you will be part of teams building the next generation of product, packaging, manufacturing and technology capabilities that will allow us to keep making products people love.
Over three years you will undertake a world-class development programme packed with variety and challenge. You'll develop your individual leadership skills by working on live projects which offer you all the experience you need to become ready for your first management role. Over at least four placement's you'll work with teams from different business areas;
- Looking at the science and technology behind our products and designing new product innovations
- Deploying our global brands in a locally impactful way or helping to grow our local brands (like PG Tips) to be market leaders
- Developing products from concept idea to full-scale production – with a heavy emphasis on feasibility and understanding consumer needs
During the three-year programme you'll have the opportunity to work across a range of R&D areas including Discover, Design and Deploy as well as our R&D capabilities such as Digital R&D, Open Innovation or Unilever's Sustainability and Environmental Assurance Centre. You'll also have the opportunity to complete at least one placement outside of R&D e.g. in Marketing, Supply Chain or Customer Management (Sales).
First-hand experience – it's the fastest way to learn. The Unilever culture is varied, friendly and encourages innovative thinking. We will push and support you to achieve your potential, whilst giving you the chance to shape your career path according your own interests, strengths and ambitions.

Fourth time's the charm
I'm not bothering with a 5-minute limit this time. There's loads of things going on at the moment and I just don't know how to feel. I've come "home" for the first time in almost a month, but I'm once again shut away in my room, alone, because just after I got home after mum picked me up, Ruth turned up on the doorstep, so of course mum is downstairs with Ruth and they've put a film on, so there is no chance whatsoever for me to actually talk to her about the things I need to... Like university, because I'm sending off my application tomorrow for it, and I am terrified. I really am, and every single time I sit down and try to finalise things, I get sharp pains in my chest, not my heart I don't think, but rather my lungs. They just hurt, and I pretty much stop breathing or breathe way too fast. Add to that the fact that the universities I am applying to are ones I have barely looked at other than to see what the course is like and a brief overview of the university, and I am just one big mess. I have quite literally chosen where I am going to spend the next 3 years of my life, maybe 4, at the casual flick through the list of universities that offer the course I want to study. How stupid is that? Mum doesn't really seem to care either way. And of course back on the subject of mum... My dad has invited me and the boys over tomorrow so mum called him earlier to confirm the details. They talked, very briefly before dad handed the phone to my step-mum so that they could discuss christmas presents, but in that short time, mum said to dad about how she has "only just got [me] back and now he wants to steal [me] away" (Sorry, force of habit from studying English, I suppose). Mum acts as if she cares though, and then hardly talks to me. Earlier, we were in the kitchen, and I'm not feeling great today, as one of my favourite teachers left today and it's just not a great day, so I wanted a cuddle from my mum, so shoot me. She gave me a hug, briefly, and then pulled away because she "had to go back into the living room to see Ruth". I kept hold of her, because I just needed a cuddle, and I was trying not to cry (God, d*mn it, I'm starting now!) but all mum wanted was to go back to her friend. Mum still hasn't met Rhys either. I was going to introduce them at my concert on monday, but then mum was "feeling like cr*p again", and so couldn't go. The rest of my immediate family has met him and liked him, and I want mum to accept him, but how can she, when she's not even met him, yet doesn't seem to like him much already? xxx

Auto enthusiasts know that a brand you can trust is built into each Chevrolet, and understand that only the highest quality repair C20 Pickup parts will suffice when repairs are needed. Your Chevrolet dealership isn't the only place to locate genuine or original equipment quality parts to repair your C20 Pickup. Chevrolet car, truck, or SUV enthusiasts have grown accustomed to a certain level of dependability when driving their C20 Pickup around town. Make no mistake, you didn't buy your C20 Pickup unless you understood you would be getting performance and American style both rolled up into one car, truck, or SUV.
No matter what, your vehicle wouldn't move without your axle shafts. Your transmission sends the engine's torque to a differential, and the Chevrolet C20 Pickup axle shafts transmit that power to the wheels. Your Chevrolet C20 Pickup has axle shafts wherever it has a live, or non-independent, suspension. Wherever the wheels on each side of a differential can move independently of one another, CV axles are used rather than solid axle shafts.
Given all the hassles associated with fixing broken parts on your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the first place you go to make buying it easy. When your Chevrolet requires a top quality replacement Axle Shaft, there's no need to trust any store other than the authority, Car Parts Discount. Trust in the value of the parts you get from carpartsdiscount.com and save time and money on all your upcoming repairs. Need 1974, 1973 Chevrolet C20 Pickup Axle Shaft parts? We've got them right here.

Competition is a good thing!!
I'm just trying to figure out what exactly these challenges are about..I know theres no prize package involved and stuff like that. Whats the history behind them,etc? Do you just get bragging rights for "winning?"
Are you going to start a journal too?Originally Posted by "clafount":672n5rez
Saw your pix and you look soooo much like I used to a few years ago. Fairly muscular legs & arms and most of the excess wt on your abdomen: APPLES unite! :tongue
@ Betty: yes, bragging rights but most of all, having a lot of support from the other participants, mostly BECAUSE there's no real prize to be won.. just cheering each other on.
Not joining as usual but cheering everyone on from the side-lines!
Last reminder
Pics and stats are due by midnight tonight.
I was planning on it and I keep procrastinating I haven't been to the gym in a couple of weeks (just got back from vacation) so I haven't had a workout to post. But I know I should start a journal anyway...Originally Posted by "Espi":3fvfbm4x
LOL. I made a conscious effort not to suck in my gut too, so that the before pics would be more honest. I didn't have this shape until I got up over 150 or so. I used to have more of an hourglass shape. Want to get that back!Saw your pix and you look soooo much like I used to a few years ago.

Hi all. I ordered my new company car a couple of weeks ago and its slated for delivery end Nov/early Dec.
318d Sport Plus, Alpine White, 18" 193M Dark Chrome Alloys, Professional Multimedia and USB Audio Port.
My wife used to have a 318 N-reg Convertible in Red which was lovely but the advent of my youngest 6 years ago put paid to that :(
Until my new car arrives I will continue driving my Octavia vRS which is a great car as well. Actually the tax differences for company cars means a £30K car is cheaper per month than an £18K one This is also the reason I went for the 318d. The extra tax on a 320d would mean no multimedia.
Now just to find out if my blackberry bold 9000 will show its emails on the screen

Calgary: Syrian migrant family afraid of neighbour who allegedly attacked them verbally
Syrian refugee family in Calgary 'very afraid of their neighbour' after alleged verbal attack
A video posted to Facebook Thursday showed a man yelling and swearing over his fence.
"Move out of here (expletive). Get out of my face ya (expletive) idiot," said a man in the video.
A Syrian refugee family with three children between the ages of four and nine shot the video two weeks ago, according to the co-founder of Calgary's Syrian Refugees Support Group.
"This family is very afraid of their neighbour. This family is feeling very insecure right now," said Saima Jamal. "The dad says that his kids can't even play now outside."
According to Jamal, while the Syrian family loves their new neighbourhood, they are keen to find a new house although there's little else they can afford.
Too scared to show their faces, the refugee family chose not to speak to Global News on Friday.
"They feel like they're still very vulnerable because they're so new in this country," Jamal said.
However, neighbours in the area said the refugees have been living in fear for at least a month.
"The kids (are) very scared," said Wfit Khil, who lives two doors down. "The boy lives in the room right there but (doesn't sleep). He sleeps with his dad and mom."

text: I just purchased a 2010 Gravely Pro-turn 160 almost 3 weeks ago. Here's my story with some feedback for anyone interested. 2010 vs. 2011 Yes, it's October 2011 but I purchased a brand new leftover 2010 Gravely proturn 160. For the record, I called Gravely directly and we went through the exact model differences between 2010 and 2011. The differences are: 1. The 2010 has 1/2" height adjustment vs. 2011 that has 1/4" height adjustment. 2. The 2010 has ribbed front tires whereas the 2011 has smooth front tires. 3. The gas tank on the 2010 has a marginal amount of additional fuel vs. the 2011 (9.7 gallons vs. 9.4 gallons). Both models come with the 26hp Kawasaki motor. Other than that, they are identical. Mower Use I am getting back into landscaping part time to supplement my income. I did this for about 15 years, and for whatever reason I still enjoy being outdoors while making some additional money on the side. I still own a 48" Exmark walkbehind that I could have used, but I really want to minimize my time investment because I have so much other stuff going on during the year. Boating is one of my passions, and while my boating time may decrease slightly, I am not giving it up totally. In my area, the typical sized yard is 1/2 acre to 1 or 2 acres. Neighboring developments the yard sizes can average 1/3 acre up to 1/2 acre. It really depends where you get the business at. Budget I wanted to stay in $6k region if possible. I hadn't realized the prices of these machines had increased so much over the years. So after looking I realized I needed to increase my budget or go with a used machine. After about the third machine that I viewed, I capped my budget around $7500-$8000 but I wasn't really happy about this. Mower Options I briefly looked at homeowner grade zero turn riders, but I was not impressed. They were very light duty and I did not want to go down that road. I had such good luck with my 48" Exmark, that I knew commerical was the route I wanted to use. You guys will get a kick out of this... I don't know how this is even possible, but I still have the original belts on my Exmark from 15 years ago. The only thing I have had to do to that mower is grease, sharpen blades, and change the oil and filter. That is it! Anyway, we have a ton of mower shops in the surrounding Philadelphia suburbs. I visited 10 dealerships all within a 20 mile radius. I looked at the following mowers: Exmark, Toro, Hustler, Scag, Bobcat, World Lawn, Bad Boys, Gravely, Kubota, and Ferris (I think that's all of them). I began my search and started with the Bad Boys mowers. On paper they seemed like the mower I would go with. I was further impressed with the mowers when I showed up and demoed them. I checked the the ZT, the CZT, and the Pup series. The ZT was eliminated because it was shifted more towards the homeowner side, but the CZT did impress me, and the Pup really impressed me. Pricing for the CZT was $5600 and the Pup was around $7200. The Pup fit me better and the overall machine was just more beefy. That set the baseline. From there I checked out all the other brands. I am 6'2" and 230ish with a large frame. Sitting on some of these machines I found them to be rather small for my size. My knees and legs would literally hit the control levers. Comfort was a top concern of mine. In the end I narrowed it down to the Exmark S-series ($7400 special)?, the Bobcat Procat ($8999 with a $500 little wonder blower special or $400 rebate?), the Bad Boy Pup ($7200), and the Gravely Pro-turn ($7200). I was open to deck size from 52" up to 60". The Gravely dealer who I've known forever told me he would give me $200 off if I bought now. I asked about pricing for the 2012 models and he showed me the price list. 2012 pricing was 5% greater. In the end the dealer was saving me about $560 if I bought now vs. spring of 2012. The Gravely fit me awesome too! My first ever walkbehind that I used was a Gravely pro50 way back in the 90's. They were built like tanks! If that was any indication how the new ones were, I knew this had to be a good machine. If money wasn't an option, I may have gone with the Bobcat. I had similar luck with them over the years and they also build a great machine. Anyway, I called one dealer in NJ as a last ditch effort for price matching, and he had a leftover 2010 Gravely model. He was also willing to waive the sales tax for an out of state order as well. In the end, I received a 2010 Gravely pro-turn 160 for $6200 out the door. I was very pleased to say the least. 2010 Gravely pro-turn 160 Review I brought the mower home, checked the level on the deck, checked the fluids again, adjusted the tire pressure, and off I went. Initial impressions out of the box were that this machine was a good fit for my size. The mower comes standard with a suspension seat and it's adjustable for weight. It's very comfy riding through a bumpy yard with this seat. I did not feel fatigued at all. The pro-turn 100 series mowers come with the ZT 3400 hydros which are good for 10 mph. If you upgrade to the 200 series, I believe they come with the ZT 5400's. Again, the 3 week impression is that this machine is very very smooth with these hydros. It seems to be very well balanced using the sticks for motion control. The sticks also have the ability to adjust in several different positions for rider comfort. Gravely also has a nice feature on the controls when the operator goes to exit the machine. Rather than finding the exact neutral position and then swinging the sticks to the side, these controls just fold up out of the way. Simple yet effective. The deck on this machine appears to be very heavy duty. It's a 7 gauge deck with 0.25" spindle reinforcement. No doubt this machine is commercial quality. Deck raising is done very easily with the foot adjustment. Height adjustment is done via a simple pin/hole combination. Again, the deck on the 2010 model is in 1/2" increments vs. the 2011 which is 1/4" increments. The mower out of the box strips very very well. I noticed the deck has great vacuum and seemed to cut great. Again, I can't emphasize enough that I was really impressed with this cut and the striping ability out of the box. The engine is your typical 26 hp Kawasaki FX series engine. There isn't much to say about these engines except that it has a ton of power and they are very reliable. I cut this one lawn that hadn't been cut in over 3 weeks... no bogging whatsoever. The air filtration system looks to be very well designed from what they were years ago. The only thing I do not like about the engine is the oil filter placement. It seems somewhat hard to access. Fuel consumption appears to be around 1 gallon per hour? I will have to verify this for sure. Again, the unit has a 9.7 gallon fuel setup. Access on the machine is also very easy. The foot tray swings up for pully adjustments. The seat also flips up for battery access and hydro reservoir top off. ROPS is standard on the machine along with the suspension seat. Tire sizes are 13x6.50 - 6 for the front, and 23x10.50 - 12 for the rear. The machine is about 1075 pounds and comes with a 2 year commericial warranty, lifetime warranty on the deck, and 3 year spindle warranty. That's about all I can think of at the moment. Hope this helps someone in the future. Thanks again. Doug

Thoughts of Havoc
Steady started up his black and blue Dodge Charger, and to his surprise, the first sound he heard was not that of the purring engine, but that of the local weather alert cutting off his favorite song on the radio. Steady picked up his radio and notified dispatch he was ready for shift. The wind began to pick-up as small debris flew through the air. The dark sky turned black in a matter of seconds as passing cars turned on their headlights. Steady thought in his mind what havoc the storm could bring to his small town.

If you are a small business owner, you might believe that getting personal recommendations and advertising in newspapers is the best way to approach marketing. I recently came across a client who complained that he was asked on a daily basis whether or not he had a site featuring his products. He simply did not. I was shocked.
Do You Need a Website?
The answer is: Absolutely yes. People are looking at websites, read reviews, and want to see high quality images of the products they intend to buy. As a basic, you need a 2-3 page site that tells the visitor what your small business is about, what you are selling, and how you can be contacted. The truth is that there are many companies offering an easy tool to set up your site in less than a year. There is, however, one problem. You are limited to a few templates, and your pages will be like a shop window in a remote village without applying some local SEO.
A Website Without Local SEO
Who would like to open a shop in a remote village with about 200 visitors passing by the window every year? Not many businesspeople, I guess. The good news is that search engine optimization for small businesses can be cheaper than weekly ads in local newspapers. In fact, you can see benefits in years to come.
How Can a SEO Consultant Help
Instead of ordering a service from a large company that applies cookie cutter methods, you might decide to hire a cheap local SEO consultant. They will take the time to sit down with you and listen to you. Trying to understand the needs of your small business and your goals, they will build a custom SEO marketing strategy that will deliver the best results. They can make suggestions about your existing website, and help you with the essential search engine optimization tasks that seem complicated at first. They will also be able to manager your social media accounts to drive targeted visitors to your sales page.
The Benefits of Search Engine Optimization for Small Businesses
Search engine optimization can increase a small business' brand reputation, and increase their customer base. Using local SEO is cheaper and simpler than trying to rank for one search term worldwide. It also takes less time. There will be no need for expensive newspaper or radio ads, any more, and you save money on distributing flyers in the neighbourhood. You can make it easy for customers to contact you, as your site will be linked to social media accounts, and messenger systems. We, at SEO Article Content Writing Ellesmere Port provide free consultation and assessment of existing sites, so small business owners know what to expect from our search engine optimization services. Get in touch today and find out if you would benefit from local SEO.

Sławomir Sierakowski: In your article in the New Statesman, you expressed your solidarity with Charlie Hebdo. Do you think that the global reaction to what happened was adequate?
Slavoj Žižek: Think about the pathos of universal solidarity which exploded in the days after the Paris killings, culminating in the Sunday January 11 spectacle of big political names from all around the world holding hands, from Cameron to Lavrov, from Netanyahu to Abbas — if there ever was an image of hypocritical falsity, this was it. The true Charlie Hebdo gesture would have been to publish on its front page a big caricature brutally and tastelessly mocking this event, with drawings of Netanyahu and Abbas, Lavrov and Cameron, and other couples passionately embracing and kissing while sharping knives behind their backs.
SS: You very interestingly pointed out that Muslim terrorists are strange kind of fundamentalists since they see themselves in the social mirror of the West. Real fundamentalists like the Amish would just ignore Western hedonists and their stupid caricatures. So what, if not fundamentalism, is really behind these terrorists? Do you think that it is simply a desperate need for a transcendental cause, so lacking in this post-ideological world?
SŽ: Things are much more ambiguous.

WHEN Gary Rincke, former London managing partner of US firm Morrison & Foerster, joined Pearson on 1 July, the company was about to embark on the largest rights issue the UK has ever witnessed.
In a bid to consolidate its position in the education publishing market, where it already owns Simon & Schuster, Pearson launched a 3-for-11 rights issue to raise £1.7bn in order to acquire US educational software company National Computer Systems (NCS).
Explaining this bold move for Pearson, Rincke says: "It was a vehicle that was used quite often until six to eight years ago, and then it seemed to fall into disfavour."
The issue, underwritten by Cazenove and Co and Goldman Sachs International, was the largest since 1987, when BP raised £1.5bn through a similar vehicle.
Apart from its size, it was also noteworthy by the company's shares being offered at £10 under the rights issue – a heavily discounted price, considering that at the time Pearson's shares were fluttering around the £17-£18 mark.
The company was advised by Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer and, since NCS is a US-based operation, by Morgan Lewis & Bockius.
While Rincke is quick to acknowledge the calibre of the legal and financial advisers working on the issue and the subsequent acquisition of NCS, he says that the in-house team maintained a very hands-on approach to the whole procedure.
"Internally we were very involved. I would say that the core people working on this were from within Pearson," says Rincke. "The decision to do a discounted rights issue came from Pearson on the strength that it's a good vehicle for raising capital without costing as much or diluting shareholders' interests that much."
This independent attitude is deeply ingrained in the culture of Pearson, especially in its small in-house legal department, which acts as a catalyst for the coordination of the 40 other lawyers who are housed within Pearson's ever-expanding maze of operating companies.
Rincke says: "Work tends to come up from the operating companies. What we spend our time concentrating on at the plc level is M&A work and substantial [£1m-plus] litigation.
"With the operating companies, we tend to spend a fair bit of time on commercial matters that are important to the business, but we don't try and replicate the infrastructure of a law firm."
Rincke adds proudly: "Our people here are as well versed as outside lawyers, and we'll only get a second opinion if there's a very large project that is multinational in scope – only then will we go outside.
"Part of what we do is just to coordinate, but often at times what we are able to do is to add value by being lawyers in the process as well."
On seeking external advice – which has been many times this year considering the amount deals Pearson has been involved in (see box) – Rincke says: "We employ more law firms than you'd care to imagine."
The usual suspects are firms like Freshfields and Herbert Smith, which acted with Morgan Lewis on the merger of the Financial Times' asset management division with the Data Broadcasting Corporation in November last year.
Also, since Pearson ope
rates in over 50 countries, there is a significant need for European legal advice.
This year, for example, it launched the Financial Times in Germany, and it has an extensive presence in the Iberian market through Recoletos Publishing.
However, Rincke does not subscribe to the view that because he chooses to use a firm in the UK he will necessarily use its overseas offices.
"We wouldn't automatically go to it, but we have used the overseas offices of Freshfields, Herbert Smith and Denton Wilde Sapte," says Rincke. "But then, we've used the overseas offices of Simmons & Simmons, but we haven't used them in London.
"Our choice is based on the strengths and capacities of the individual offices."
Pearson will also employ the services of smaller, more specialised firms for advice in areas such as libel. For example, the company used Davenport Lyons in the high-profile and ultimately successful libel case against historian David Irving, and it will also look to firms such as Peter Carter-Ruck should the need arise.
The company also has a heavy need for US counsel, since 60 per cent of Pearson's revenues are generated on the other side of the Atlantic. Morgan Lewis is a much-used firm, while Rincke says his former firm, Morrison & Foerster, is also beginning to pick up work from the company.
Rincke explains: "The US is a big market so we employ a number of law firms. We try to engage people locally where the work arises.
"We have a large presence on the East Coast. Pearson Education is based in New Jersey with the Family Education Network in Boston, but it also has a substantial presence in San Francisco. The demographics of our hiring, then, tends to follow where we have people."
The tendering process is not a favourite with Rincke, who prefers a more personal approach to choosing external advisers.
He says: "Because we operate in certain areas – media publishing and education – it's not difficult to find who the specialist practitioners are.
"If we use people we get good work from and have a good relationship with, we tend to go back to those people again and again."
He adds: "We get the best value out of the people who know us and know our businesses so that we don't need to have too many people who are in the same position – there are diseconomies of scale in that."
The US has become an increasingly important market to the company since the arrival of chief executive officer Marjorie Scardino, who formally held the same position at the Pearson-owned Economist Group at the end of 1996.
At that point, the media company had its finger in an odd assortment of pies from Madame Tussaud's to a stake in investment bank Lazards.
In 1998, a programme of divestment began in earnest, with Pearson selling off non-core businesses to concentrate on what it does best – media and publishing.
The importance of the US market was reflected in the appointment of Rincke, who took over the running of the in-house legal department from group legal director and company secretary Paul Vickers, who left last year (The Lawyer, 12 July 1999).
At the time of Vickers' departure – he eventually landed at internet incubator company antfactory (The Lawyer, 29 March) – Pearson announced that it would be looking for a US-qualified lawyer, as the company moved to a US-orientated general counsel system.
The eight-member company secretariat department is now separate from the head office legal unit, although the two liaise with each other on a regular basis.
Rincke is now committed to growing the in-house legal department to reflect the consolidation of the company.
He says: "There's so much more overlap, and therefore legal issues, arising in common between the businesses, so it makes no sense to independently reinvent the wheel. It makes more sense to bring in people centrally."
At present, Rincke and his small in-house team within the plc look after the US, but he says: "Our next move will be at Pearson Inc to have another central legal player who works with the operating companies in the US."
Rincke predicts that this plan will come into play within the next three years – it will not be an overnight occurrence.
But with the rate of growth at Pearson, it seems inevitable that the need to increase the legal department will come sooner rather than later.

Spivey, acquired on June 10 from Milwaukee, broke his right wrist in a freak accident while hitting off a practice T.
"The ball bounced back off the T and I didn't think anything about it," he said. "I kept swinging, then I felt it pop. It's unbelievable"
Spivey, a 2002 NL All-Star, was hitting .232 with seven homers and 24 RBI in 72 games. The 30-year-old Spivey is a career .270 hitter with 48 homers and 201 RBI.
Spivey was acquired to provide some insurance when Jose Vidro was out with a partially torn tendon in his left ankle. With Vidro back, Spivey had been relegated to a backup role.

At first I thought you were talking about Larsson being a poor man's Pietro. I feel better now that I actually read what you wrote.
I'm on the "WHOOO POINTS FOR LARSSON!" train. I see him a lot like Hedman. They both have very underrated (at least these days, for Hedman) offensive skill imo because they entered the league and were expected to play defense before offense. Hedman's offense shined in the KHL and it's starting to blossom in Tampa as well, and I think Larsson's gonna have the same sorta path.
Call me crazy, but I could see Larsson pushing 60 points in his best year. He's just got that vision to make things happen effortlessly. However, if Merrill and Gelinas both end up in Jersey (which I'm not saying is likely), and they end up on the top PP, it's gonna be more difficult for Larsson to have those big point seasons.

Martino weary of questions about Messi's form
By Elena Gyldenkerne
BARCELONA (Reuters) - Barcelona coach Gerardo Martino appeared fed up with questions about Lionel Messi's perceived loss of form on Tuesday and predicted the World Player of the Year would rediscover his sparkle sooner rather than later.
Messi's season has been disrupted by a couple of minor injuries and the Argentine said on Chinese social networking site Weibo at the weekend he was still not fully fit.
At home to Espanyol on Friday he failed to score for a fourth successive La Liga match in which he played the full 90 minutes, his most barren run in almost six years.
"I think that this must be the third news conference in the last five days and more or less the 20th question about Leo's situation," Martino told reporters ahead of Wednesday's Champions League match at home to AC Milan.
"And I will continue saying exactly the same thing," added the 50-year-old, who took over from the ailing Tito Vilanova in the close season.
"What I am is happy to have him, to be able to coach him and have him in the team.
"Let's wait for the next match and see whether he continues to contribute what he has been contributing to Barcelona, when everything he does is decisive in the match."
Martino said Messi had not been given a special recovery program and was training normally with his team mates. Continued...

Author's Note: Heavy M, with a kinda funny ending. Do please enjoy. ;).
Rachel sighed softly, slipping down into the chair beside the kitchen table, cradling the mug of coffee in her hands like it was a precious little baby before lifting it to her lips and taking a sip; a low moan escaping her lips as the taste hit her tongue before the warm liquid slithered down her throat. The redhead's pink tongue darted out from between her parted lips and ran over the soft flesh.
The redhead's green eyes fluttered open a couple of moments later only to be met with her raven haired roommates smouldering black eyes. Rachel smirked softly from behind the mug of coffee at the expression on the living vampire's face - it looked like the woman was contemplating eating her alive... which wouldn't be entirely a bad thing.
"Did you really have to do that?" The vampire asked in an annoyed fashion closing her eyes and trying to regain control of her instincts, however the movement her eyes reopened she knew that she was doomed because that same tongue was wrapping around the end of one of Rachel's fingers and sucking on it lightly as the woman moaned softly, almost quiet enough that even the vampire couldn't hear it.
"Just enjoying my breakfast lover." The woman replied as she placed the mug down on top of the kitchen table and walked over to her girlfriend's tense frame and wrapped her arms around the woman's body. The redhead's palms slid underneath the small tank top that the girl wore as her lips pressed against the taller woman's throat, lightly sucking on the woman's skin, flicking her tongue out to taste it before pulling away and drawing Ivy's lips down onto her own and moaning softly.
"Rachel..." Ivy moaned in almost a pained fashion before she surrendered to the kiss and allowed their tongues to tangle between their lips. The vampire's hands quickly made their way onto the redhead's body, gripping her hips and pulling the woman against her body. "God Rachel, you feel so good."
"You do too." Rachel moaned softly against Ivy's lips as she tangled her fingers in the woman's hair, keeping their lips locked together.
The raven haired woman walked forward slightly until Rachel was pressed against the edge of the kitchen table before taking a hold of her hips again and sitting her on top of the table, standing in-between the woman's spread legs for a moment before the long limbs wrapped around her waist and drew her back against the redhead's body. A pale hand reached down to the bottom of Rachel's tank top and gripped it tightly, tugging it upward and moaning softly when the woman's bare breasts were exposed to her eyes. "Beautiful." She whimpered softly, throwing the shirt to the floor and reconnecting her lips to Rachel's as fast as she could.
The witch didn't take any time in gripping the hem of Ivy's tank top and tugging it up off her body, but she did have to take a little more time in making the vampire step back enough that she was able to get the material off her body over her head. The woman's hands cupped the vampire's breasts softly, squeezing them lightly and flicking her thumbs over her nipples for a moment. Ivy's body shook as she tried to bring herself under control but everything that the witch was doing to her was sending that control further and further out of reach. Moans escaped out of the vampire's mouth and into Rachel's while their lips remained locked, Rachel's tongue inside the vampire's mouth, but it didn't stay there for long. Instead the woman coaxed the vampire's tongue back into her own mouth and let it explore the warm cavern for a few moments before Ivy gasped and pulled away.
The vampire's tongue had glanced over the redhead's teeth, and felt the hard tips of caps on her canines as she did so. The woman pulled back for a moment, looking deeply into Rachel's eyes as she tried to work out why the woman was wearing caps.
"I want to bite you too..." The redhead blushed as she spoke. "I want to leave a mark... a claim on your skin."
"Really?" Ivy asked, hope shining in her tone as she spoke, she had wanted the other woman to bite her - it was a thing that vampire liked having done to them by their partners, and it was something that would bring her a lot of pleasure.
Ivy shivered for a moment before she nodded her head and pressed her lips back against the redhead's forcefully, taking over the other woman's mouth, nipping her bottom lip and sucking it into her mouth. Rachel moaned shamelessly into her mouth as hands cupped her breasts again and thumbs stroked over the hardened nipples, flicking them roughly for a moment before soothing them and repeating over and over again. The redhead squirmed on the table, trying to grind her body against her girlfriend's, desperate to feel the vampire's fingers between her thighs.
"Please Ivy, please." She begged softly, moaning louder as the vampire broke away from their kiss to press her lips against the column of the woman's throat, flicking her tongue out over the throbbing pulse and groaning at the need that arose in her - the vampire inside her wanted nothing more than to plunge her fangs into the side of Rachel's neck and suck on her pulse, taking in her blood.
The raven haired woman growled loudly, making the redhead's scars burn for a moment before releasing a wave of pleasure all over her, leaving her shaking slightly and moaning. The want that coursed throughout her body doubling with every rumble of the older woman's chest. The redhead could feel herself getting wetter with every movement that the other woman made against her, the flick of her thumbs against her nipples sending bolts of pure pleasure down her spine before it settled in her crotch and throbbed almost painfully.
Ivy growled against, sensing that Rachel was growing even wetter than she had been before, slipping her hands into the waistband of the woman's short before literally tearing them off her body leaving the redhead naked upon the kitchen table. "Fuck me..." Ivy moaned at the sight of Rachel's dripping pussy, bending down and pressing kisses to the woman's stomach before the tugging on her hair became too hard and she was forced to look up at the woman writhing under her touch. For a moment their eyes stayed connected, sharing their emotions and their wants silently before Ivy picked the other woman up slightly and settled her back on the table, climbing on top of it with her and straddling her hips as soon as she had discarded the rest of her own clothing.
The vampire rocked her hips against the witch's softly for a handful of moments before she leant down and pressed her lips against the slightly tanned collar bone, sucking and licking down towards the hard little buds that rose out of the witch's breasts. Taking one of them into her mouth the vampire wound her tongue around it expertly and sucked hard, scraping her fangs along it in a way that she knew the other woman enjoyed, and what's more, she knew made the other woman writhe and moan helplessly. A pale slender hand disappeared between the two women's bodies, settling on the redhead's hip for a moment before she slid it down further, between the woman's legs.
Rachel moaned incoherently as Ivy's lips and tongue played with the pert buds on her chest, her hips rocking slightly upward trying to press against Ivy's body in a way that would allow her some relief, but the vampire always moved away just enough that the pressure was barely there.
The redhead gasped suddenly, groaning loudly as two of Ivy's fingers slid inside her pussy. Her insides clenched around the intruder for a moment before they relaxed when the vampire's thumb began to stroke her clit softly. White teeth bit down onto her lips as her hips bucked, her eyes fluttering closed every few minutes before opening and staring directly into the vampire's black ones.
"Please, please... fuck me... please." Rachel moaned shamelessly begging the other woman to allow her to fall over the edge, but every time she got close the vampire would always change the way that she was moving inside her and take her away from the orgasm she was craving again before building her back up to the edge. But the fourth time the vampire had done that the redhead was sobbing softly as her hips bucked desperately.
Ivy smirked widely from her position above Rachel, shifting down the woman's body and inhaling deeply. The scent of Rachel's wetness was the first, and only, thing that the vampire was able to process. The scent that made her growl with want and need, her body shaking and her mouth watering at the smell anticipating the taste. Ivy lowered her face towards Rachel's dripping wet pussy, flicking her tongue out and licking along the woman's slit, moaning loudly at the taste of it before she was overwhelmed and had to dip her tongue into her lover's pussy.
Rachel's fingers tangled in the long locks of flowing dark hair as she tried to keep the woman pressed against her pussy. Ivy chuckled at the way that Rachel was writhing sending vibration through the redhead's clit ripping another pleasure filled moan out of her throat in the process. Finally the vampire looked up into Rachel's pleading green eyes and took pity on her lover, thrusting her fingers deep inside the warm slick cavern and rubbing the tips over the soggy flesh inside her that would make her back arch and body quake as the coil of heat in her stomach snapped.
"Ivy!" Rachel wailed at the top of her voice as she crashed around the woman, fingers hanging onto the locks of hair with a dead grip as her hipped bucked.
The vampire smirked even as she drew her tongue up and down the woman's slit, getting all of the sweet tasting nectar as she cleaned her lover up. "Beautiful." The woman whispered shimming up the woman's body and pressing her lips against Rachel's, "You taste go good Rachel."
The witch was barely able to respond so indeed she just slid her tongue into Ivy's mouth and worked over the fangs, flicking them with her tongue in a way that she knew the other woman enjoyed. The long languid kiss was suddenly changed as the witch rolled over and straddled Ivy's stomach, grinding her wetness against the vampire's toned abs as she sat above her smirking.
"My turn." The redhead murmured softly as she nipped down Ivy's neck, lavishing it with kisses and nibbles on her kiss. Ivy's dark eyes fluttered closed, her hands settling on Rachel's hips, fingertips stroking the soft skin that she found there as she lost herself in the sensations spreading throughout her body from Rachel's kisses.
The witch wasted no time in kissing down Ivy's throat and down to her breasts; taking one of the vampire's nipples into her mouth and sucking on it hard even as she scraped the tip of one of her caps over the hardened bud. Ivy's hands tightened their grip on her hips as she did so, fingernails digging into her flesh hard enough to break the skin as a low growled moan escaped the woman's lips. Pulling away from the vampire's nipple the witch smiled gently, pressing her lips against Ivy's again for a moment before descending the woman's body and parting her legs, settling between them as she looked up the length of the vampire's body. With their eyes connected the redhead leaned down and kissed over her lover's clit, nipping it once with her teeth before she licked it with her tongue and began to flick it back and forth. Two fingers parted the vampire's folds, dipping inside and sliding into the woman's tight passage, feeling her lover clench around her the redhead moaned softly.
"Rachel.." Ivy whimpered softly, looking deeply into the woman's eyes as she set a slow pace, fingers and hips working together to get the witch's digits as deep inside the vampire as they would go, sliding along her walls and smoothing over the different pleasure spots inside her.
Rachel worked Ivy up to the edge slowly and steadily, her mouth on the woman's clit and her fingers thrusting inside her at a pace that would arouse the vampire slowly. The dark haired woman's eyes fluttered closed for a moment before she was able to reopen them, and that was the point that Rachel knew Ivy was about to fall over the edge. The witch took her mouth off the woman's clit and kissed up the vampire's body as if she was going to press her lips against the parted swollen pair that belonged to the vampire, but instead she stopped at the woman's throbbing pulse, working the skin there for a handful of moments as Ivy's orgasm built. Then at the moment that the woman's body tightened and she started to crumble Rachel bit down hard on the throbbing pulse, sucking gently as the caps broke the skin and drawing the woman's blood into her mouth. "Fuck!" Ivy yelled as she came, crashing around her lover, their auras joining in a weaker form of what happened when the vampire bit Rachel.
Lapping up her lover's blood the witch stroked Ivy's stomach softly, drawing her down from her high and relaxing the woman, pressing a kiss to her lips when she was sure that she had come down.
"Mine." The vampire whispered softly, sliding her tongue into Rachel's mouth lovingly.
"Yours." Rachel whispered back into her lover's mouth, her arms wrapping around the woman's waist.
"What in the name of tink's boxers is going on here!" A loud yet tiny voice boomed from over by the window, though neither Rachel nor Ivy paid any attention to it as they continued to kiss softly.

Recipe for roasted-veggie bacon pasta
I have been really lax about making much of anything this summer, which explains why I've been blogging so irregularly. When I do cook, it's been dishes with a little of this and a little of that.
Lately, our meals have been driven by "We need to eat this garden vegetable right now," which makes the resulting recipe difficult to write down and share.
However, this is the second time I've made this dish this summer, which makes me think I know it well enough to share it. Last night, I made it with garden kohlrabi and small turnips.
Keep in mind you can substitute any variety of vegetables or greens. The amounts in this recipe are estimates, so keep that in mind.
This recipe unfortunately uses several pots and pans for cooking, but it's so summery and delicious, I think it's worth it.
Roasted-veggie Bacon Pasta
16 ounces of a large pasta. I like rigatoni, but large shells would be good, too
8 ounces bacon
8 ounces spinach, Swiss chard or other greens
2 large kohlrabi, peeled and cubed
4 small turnips, peeled
3 large cloves garlic, chopped
1 Vidalia (or regular white) onion, cut into wedges
1 bunch of kale
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
shredded Parmesan or goat cheese to taste
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a ceramic baking dish, put prepared kohrlabi, turnips, garlic, onions and kale and toss with two tablespoons olive oil. Put in oven and roast for about 25 minutes.
(Your kale will get crunchy while the other veggies roast. If you don't want that texture, you can skip the kale or combine it with your other greens, which will be used later in the recipe.)
As vegetables continue to roast, boil water for pasta and start frying bacon. (You'll want to roast the vegetables for about 40 minutes, or until they're starting to turn golden at the edges and the kohlrabi is tender-crisp on the inside).
Cook pasta and drain bacon well on a paper towel when it's done. Set it aside.
Discard almost all of the bacon grease, except for what coats the pan. Wilt spinach or other greens on low heat in the remaining grease. Set aside.
After draining pasta, return to pot and add a tablespoon (or less) of olive oil and lemon juice. Crumble or cut up bacon and add to pasta, and then add wilted greens and roasted vegetables. Stir well to combine.
Serve with cheese of your choice. Grated Parmesan is really good, and so is a soft goat cheese. You might also want to enjoy this dish with some freshly ground black pepper.

Our home is a former bed and breakfast originally constructed in 1907. We are proud to be the fourth owners of this special home. The home boasts five bedrooms, plus a sleeping porch, and four full bathrooms (three showers and one claw-footed tub). It is a great family vacation home in every sense.
The home is located in the countryside near the quaint town of Cashmere (approximately 15 minutes to Leavenworth and 10 minutes to Wenatchee) on a former apple orchard. Today, the grounds hold apple, plum and cherry trees, a vegetable garden and an expansive manicured lawn. The property is fully-fenced and is an incredible place for children to play. Our care-taker lives in a separate home on the property and is available for any needs you may have.
A large, private, in-ground swimming pool (seasonal) makes this the perfect place to relax.
The home is located just a few minutes from the Wenatchee River, rock climbing in the Peshastin Pinnacles, as well as the legendary mountain bike trails of Mission Creek and Devil's Gulch. There is great jogging and cycling on quiet country roads out the front door. Beautiful public tennis courts are located less than a half mile away. Skiing is available at both Mission Ridge (35 minutes) and Steven's Pass (45 minutes).
The Bavarian village of Leavenworth is just a short drive away, as is the small city of Wenatchee. Cashmere is a quiet town, and a great place to relax. It is also the home of the world famous Aplets & Cotlets candy factory and the fascinating Pioneer Village Museum.
The house has hosted families and travelers in comfort for more than a century. The master bedroom is located on the main floor with French doors opening to the pool. The second floor holds four additional bedrooms, and three more bathrooms.
The kitchen was recently remodeled with stainless steel appliances and beautiful concrete counters.
The home is heated with both central heat and classic radiators. There is a wood-burning stove in the kitchen as well as a large brick fire place in the living room. There is also central air-conditioning and ceiling fans in every bedroom.
The porch room is equipped with comfortable sofas for lounging and a large flat screen television. Cable TV and DVD/VHS player are available. Wireless internet is also available throughout the house.
Clothes washer and dryer are available for use and located in the basement.
There is a large dining room table, which seats at least ten. The dining room also holds an upright piano.
In full disclosure, this home is not new. It is well over 100 years old and with those years come many marks of character. The home is exceeding comfortable, but not luxurious. It is clean and well-kept but not flawless. Above all else, it is our home, and we are happy to share it with you.
The Wenatchee Valley is a recreation paradise. We enjoy four distinct and beautiful seasons, and endless opportunities of recreation.

EJ, Sami, Kate & Gabi are the only one who officially broke the law regardless of Nick's view point.
My father is a lawyer, the right things would have been for Will & Sonny to turn the woman in but that lacked proof and all the had was the woman's word about what the did that lacked proof ... IT an error in judgment not a crime.
BB contract is up this month, not mention of renewal ... no mention of BB being on set after the May Sweeps storyline's had been taped.
It what the law considers hearsay or secondary evidences (NO one can be charged for that, forced to testify against EJ, Sami, Kate & Gabi if certain acceptations to said law is met yet charged as assessory as NICK claims no. Nick trying to justify is continued threats and blackmail of Will & Sonny plan and simple.
Will & Sonny (Guy & Freddie) aren't heading off the show, so there not going to be a twist to make them accessories at this point ... Gabi it seems is going to lose Arianna and I think that going to be due to legal troubles either from Mel or from Nick attempt or murder to come... Sami & EJ exits I think they well be regarding their illegal acts as well.
