Next's veteran fashion boss Christos Angelides has quit to take up a new job trying to turn around troubled American brand Abercrombie & Fitch.
The surprise departure is a blow for Next boss Lord Wolfson because, although Angelides keeps a deliberately low profile in the industry, he has been a key figure in the retailer's long track record of success which has culminated this year in Next's profits overtaking Marks & Spencer for the first time.
The defection continues the changing of the guard in what has been one of the retail industry's most stable management teams, which began with resignation of property director Andrew Varley last year and continued last month when finance director David Keens announced his retirement after a 23-year stint.
The new job promises a culture shock for Angelides, a West Bromwich Albion fan who has been based at Next's Leicester headquarters for the past 28 years. He is relocating to the US to take charge of the troubled Abercrombie & Fitch (A&F) brand which, unlike Next, uses topless male models with six packs as "greeters" at the entrance to its shops and blasts pop music at its teenage shoppers.
The US company said Angelides, 51, would be brand president of A&F and Abercrombie Kids brands, which together account for half the group's $4.1bn (£2.4bn) sales. He will report to A&F chief executive Mike Jeffries and have overall responsibility for the product ranges and the financial performance of the brands.
"We are excited to welcome Christos to the Abercrombie & Fitch team and to deepen our bench of senior leadership talent," said Jeffries. "His experience with all aspects of running a business made him the perfect candidate for this newly created role."
Independent retail consultant Richard Hyman said he was surprised by Angelides' decision. "Abercrombie is one of those brands with its best days behind it," he said. "He could have had any retail job. He's done an outstanding job at Next and been at the top of headhunters lists for the last 10 to 15 years. He could have been running M&S's clothing business many times over."
After studying business and economics at Leicester's De Montfort University, Angelides joined Next as a trainee menswear buyer in 1986. He the board in 2000 with the title of group product director with overall responsibility for all aspects of the design, buying and merchandising of its products. He is a member of the tightknit management team – Wolfson has also given more than 20 years' service – nicknamed the Enderby Family after the retailer's Leicestershire headquarters.
The pay package being offered by A&F will be substantial as Angelides is already well rewarded at Next. Last year, he earned £6.6m – including a £2,000 Next clothing allowance. That was more than Wolfson, who opted to share one of his three bonuses with staff. Angelides also owns a £7m stake in the company and is likely to collect millions of pounds worth of performance-related shares albeit at the remuneration committee's discretion.
Angelides said Abercrombie & Fitch was a brand "with global appeal and a clearly defined aesthetic". But he has a tough job on his hands as the retailer's share price has slumped since 2011 as teenagers turn their backs on the preppy uniform of logoed joggers and hoodies. The global group, which also owns the Gilly Hicks and Hollister brands, has 1,000 stores.
Next, which has more than 500 stores, made profits of £694m on sales of £3.7bn last year. It said Angelides had stepped down from the board with immediate effect but would remain working within the business until he leaves in September.
Next's shares lost £1.10p to closed down nearly 2% at £65.15.
"Next is a machine and I mean that in a positive rather than a pejorative way," Hyman said. "You don't achieve the consistency of performance Next has without a rock solid operating model."
A statement from Next said: "Christos has made a huge contribution to the group in his 28 years of service and the board wish him success in his future endeavours." He would not be replaced on the plc board as it remained balanced with four non-executive directors, four executive directors and an independent chairman in situ, the company said.

His coverage not only chronicled how police finally solved the 22-year-old murder, but also the emotional aspects of the case, from the toll it took on the detective who first tried to solve it to the joy of police and residents when Anjelica Castillo's name replaced Baby Hope on her headstone.

( .__.) Late night thoughts
Miscellaneous by: Lefthanded Ronnette
Status: Finished
Genre: Personal Finance
More Than This by One Direction softly plays in the background
I used to hate reading statuses on facebook, from guysI know, who write things like:
"Lonely. Need someone to cuddle with"
"Where's all the real women cuz I'm on my grown man shit and I need someone by my side"
"All females are the same. I need a Cinderella. I'm back on my bully"
Well, one guy in particular.
How funny you should write that. You had the best thing in front of you for years, yet you've managed to royally fuck that up. You were too stupid to see that she has been there all along. From rock bottom and back. You were just too fucking busy going after the Mystiques, the Storms, AND apparently the Thors with the big hammers !! And don't get me started on the love poetry you post. You wouldn't know what love was if it was carded at the door by the bouncer working at Webster Hall.
I know they say "time heals all wounds" but this just isn't fair. How can you even still be happy ? People like you make my kind crippled !! I mean that in the most metaphoric way possible. We give so much love that you take every ounce of it that we have to offer. Once a loose bitch in a skimpy outfit struts by, we're forgotten like this
*snaps fingers*
It's almost like you broke both my legs, threw me to the ground, and left me fining for myself. Spiraling deep into a dark pit of nothingness.Paraplegia instantly settled in.
I felt so strongly about seeing things like that in the beginning. Honestly, I cried every second I was alone. Here I was thinking I wasn't good enough, not beautiful or pretty enough, and just not worthy of happiness. I hurt so fucking much, I was now damaged goods. Here you are partying with your friends, fucking bitches, and having a grand 'ol time. While I on the other hand, stayed home or went to work feeling like shit. The only time I mentally blocked it out was whenever I danced. I worked so fucking hard in rehearsals and at any workshop I've attended because I needed to out my frustrations.
Dance has literally been my crutch for the lowest points in my life. In this case, it was my life saver. I've managed to push those negative thoughts out of my head. Not completely, but I'm almost free of them. Picking up the pieces and learning to 'walk' again wasn't easy at all. The few family and friends I did have also contributed to my 'recovery'.
Me not being in your presence became my therapy. Me deleting you became my daily workout. Me focusing on my career and things that actually mattered became my doctor's blessings. Me believing that I was actually worth something and could potentially make some other guy happy became my self motivator.
Little by little, that's all it took. "Time heals all wounds", yes. Although they don't tell you how much time, the most beautiful part about that is that it's completely up to you. Use as much of it as you need. Careful not to dwell on the past too long, there's a whole life ahead of you ready for the taking.
With all this support, how could I even be upset anymore ?
Things always seem to work themselves out no matter the severity. Funny how now I can run into you and see the same pain I once felt in your eyes. You crack jokes with the guys but your eyes aren't laughing. I walk past you and your whole demeanor crumbles. You now go out of your way to say hi to me. It's you that compliments me on my accomplishment. It's you who cries in the dark.
But I must admit you were right. I am no Cinderella who sat around waiting on her prince charming. I'm more of a Mulan kinda girl. Things got rough and I got rough back. The same way she took control of her life is the same thing I'm doing with mine.
If I've learned anything from you it's to never stop loving someone, even if they don't deserve it. That positive energy will guide me to someone who will want to love me the way I'd want to be loved.
*hands you crutches*
I think you might need these.

Mayhem # 375501
About Me***DUE TO INCREASING BACK AND HIP PROBLEMS AND ON THE ADVICE OF MY SURGEON AND PHYSICIAN, I AM TAKING AN UNFORTUNATE BREAK. I WILL HOPEFULLY BE BACK ON MY FEET IN THE NEAR FUTURE. I APOLOGIZE SINCERELY TO EVERYBODY I HAD UPCOMING SHOOTS SCHEDULED AND WILL BE POSTING IMAGES FROM MY LAST BUT HOPEFULLY NOT FOREVER LAST SHOOT SOON.***
Modeling is my passion-I love it dearly, but it is (unfortunately)not my job. I do my best to be as available as I can.
I am not perfect, obviously, very few of us are ;) but I am not shy and am quite comfortable in my skin regardless of its flaws (and I thank the makers of photoshop HA).
Here is a list of what's wrong and/or right about me depending the eye of the beholder:
Body Modifications:
Left arm 3/4 sleeve tattoo
Right arm small tattoo upper arm & lower forearm
Full back tattoo - 1/2 flowers, 1/2 anatomy
Right Leg fully tattooed
Chest tattoo
Left rib tattoo
Both feet tattooed
Small nose stud
Saline boobies
Stretch marks (I am a mommy)-lower abdomen (mostly faded)
Surgical scar - low abdomen (mostly faded)
I don't expect to be a supermodel and don't expect you to turn me into one. However, if you get me published in a tattoo magazine or something fun and exciting, I will love you forever and ever :) :)
I promise to give my all and to have fun and to force you to have fun whether you want to or not ;) Time is too precious to be wasted on seriousness.
Thank you for taking the time to read about me :) What I write here isn't important anyway, what we do together is what really matters. You'll like me, I'm kind of funny sometimes :)

Cleveland Metro-area Towns Offer RecycleBank Rewards for Residents
Published: July 22, 2009
Allied Waste Adds Rewards Benefits to List of Services Offered in an Effort to Greatly Increase Residential Recycling
NEW YORK—JUNE 22, 2009—Recyclebank®, a rewards program that motivates households to recycle, announced today that they will join forces with Allied Waste to roll out service to five towns in the Cleveland Metro area. Allied Waste customers in The City of Amherst, Amherst Township, Carlisle, Sheffield Village, and the City of Avon begin earning Points for the amount they recycle this summer.
With Recyclebank, homes in the region are provided with a 68-gallon wheeled recycling cart. Each cart has an ID tag which matches the cart to the household address and account number. Allied Waste trucks, retrofitted with special technology, will track weekly recycling activity. Once the pick-up route is complete, the total weight of the amount of material the community recycled will be divided amongst participating households and converted into Recyclebank Points. Similar to frequent flier programs, the more a community recycles, the more Recyclebank Points each household will earn.
Members can watch their Recyclebank Points grow online at www.Recyclebank.com with each pick-up, as well as learn about their personal environmental impact through recycling. Residents can also get their Point balances by calling the Recyclebank Customer Care Center, 1.888.727.2978. Recyclebank Points can be redeemed for rewards, gift cards, groceries and products with national Recyclebank Reward Partners such as Coca-Cola, Kraft Foods, and CVS/pharmacy, as well as local participating businesses like Discount Drug Mart, Donatos, Aladdin's Eatery, Apple Grocery Store, Park Lanes, and Don Mould's Plantation. There is also an option to donate Recyclebank Points to local school environmental programs and non-profit organizations.
The Recyclebank program offers real value for area residents, knowing that on average, members will earn hundreds of dollars in reward value each year through their recycling efforts.
"Avon and our surrounding communities have always held small town charm while offering big city amenities," said Jim Smith of the City of Avon. "Working with Recyclebank and Allied Waste will enable us to meet our recycling goals while giving something back to our residents. During these hard times, getting money off groceries, personal care, clothing or even getting free movie tickets is of noteworthy value."
"Allied Waste and Recyclebank continue to help municipalities across the US motivate their citizens to recycle – and to educate them about the benefits of sustainable communities," said Ron Gonen, co-founder and CEO of Recyclebank. "The value we are creating in the municipalities we service is fueling tremendous demand for our program."
"Our partnership with Recyclebank is another way in which we are continuing our long history of providing innovative solutions for our customers while also being strong allies of our environment," said Keith Cordesman, general manager of Allied Waste. "By partnering with Recyclebank and offering this very meaningful rewards program, we are literally changing the way our customers view recycling. We are proud to offer our customers this added benefit."
Recyclebank services more than one million people across 19 states. By cumulative recycling efforts, those households have saved more than 112 million gallons of oil and over 1.6 million trees. Weekly pickup began for residents in Amherst and Amherst Township on June 8. Weekly pickup begins today for residents in Carlisle and Sheffield Village, and the City of Avon launches July 6.
Recyclebank is a rewards program that motivates people to recycle. We do this by quickly and easily measuring the amount of material each home recycles and then converting that activity into Recyclebank Points that can be used at hundreds of local and national rewards partners. Recyclebank is simple to implement, market-driven, and proven to work; saving municipalities' money and rewarding citizens for their environmental stewardship. Kleiner, Perkins, Caulfield and Byers, RRE Ventures, The Westly Group and Sigma Partners are institutional shareholders. Ron Gonen, the co-founder and CEO, is the largest individual shareholder. Recyclebank is headquartered in New York City. Recyclebank was recently honored as a 2009 World Economic Forum Technology Pioneer and has been named as a 2009 Champion of the Earth by the United Nations. Visit www.Recyclebank.com for more information.
Allied Waste merged with Republic Services, Inc., in 2008, forming America's second largest non-hazardous solid waste services company and an environmental leader. Republic Services provides waste collection, transfer, recycling and disposal services to millions of residential, commercial and industrial customers in 40 states and Puerto Rico through its 400 collection companies. Republic Services owns or operates 242 transfer stations, 213 solid waste landfills and 78 recycling facilities. The company is headquartered in Phoenix and has 34,000 employees. For more information, visit the Republic Services www.RepublicServices.com. Locally, Allied Waste has operated in Lorain County since the mid 1960s and currently employs more than 300 people at it's hauling company in Elyria and landfill and recycle center in New Russia Township. The company offers residential, commercial and industrial solid waste collection, disposal, recycling collection, and processing services.

The Ministry of Defence also threatened to take other actions as per terms of the contract, an apparent reference to invoking a clause in the contract for recovery of money already paid in the Rs 3,600 crore deal. India has paid more than 30 per cent of the sum.
"The defence ministry issued a formal show cause notice to AgustaWestland seeking cancellation of the contract and taking other actions as per terms of the contract," ministry spokesman Sitanshu Kar said. The company was asked to explain the bribery allegations within seven days and reply why the contract of 2010 should not be cancelled.
The action came after the ministry received "some report" from Italy, sources said. India has also written to the Italian government, seeking information on the issue. A CBI team is also being sent to Italy where the CEOs of AgustaWestland and its parent company Finmeccanica have been arrested on charges of bribery.
The defence ministry's notice comes a day after the ministry warned of legal action, including invoking integrity pact which provides for cancellation of the contract if bribes are paid and recovery of the money already paid.

The statute of limitations can vary from two to four years, depending on whether the attendant circumstances authorize misdemeanor or felony charges. Moreover, in many instances, the State may use the Uniform Traffic Citation as a charging document. Once formal charges have commenced, the time frame is indefinite, unless the Defendant files for a speedy trial. The foregoing is not intended as legal advice, but a general exposition of time limits bearing on DUI cases. I recommend engaging an attorney for legal advice on your specific circumstances.Ask a similar question
You have a constitutional right to a speedy trial, but that will not become an issue for a good while unless you formally demand a speedy trial. If you are in a hurry to get your case over with, speak to an attorney about that. If you are hoping that the case will be dismissed for taking too long, you have a much longer time to wait.Ask a similar question
Generally speaking, the statute of limitations for a DUI is 2 years. However, many courts allow the tickets the officer wrote you to satisfy the statute. You do have a statutory right to a speedy trial if you demand one, and if your case drags on for a very long time your Constitutional right to a speedy trial may be violated. The Constitutional violation usually takes quite a long time before it becomes an issue, there is no specific per se time limit, and the judge in our case would have to balance certain factors in making this determination.

The Statute of Limitations on a misdemeanor DUI is 2 years. That means the State of Georgia has 2 years in order to file charges against you. After that hurdle is met - the case can drag on for years. If you want to have your case heard ASAP then you should file a Speedy Trial Demand. I would recommend that you retain the best DUI Defense Attorney that is available to you as quickly as you can - so that the Demand can be filed and your case fully investigated before your trial. **** Most attorneys will advise you not to rush the case to trial. If the case is delayed there are numerous problems that can arise for the state and hinder the prosecution. I hope this information is helpful to you. Good Luck!!!

What You Do, What She Sees
Here are some examples of what you do versus what she sees.
You forget to give her a key to your placeWhat you did: You've been working long hours and have had so much going on that getting her a key to your apartment just slipped your mind — again.
What she sees: A hesitation to commit. In her mind it's such a simple thing for you to give her a key that she fears your hesitation could be symptomatic of something more serious. For instance, maybe you just don't have the balls to tell her you really don't want her to move her toothbrush into your bathroom just yet.
What you should do: It's time to figure out your emotions. Are there any real reasons, other than a memory slip, that explain you not getting her a key? Ask yourself if you really do want her gaining free access to your private space. If you do, then make getting the key a priority. If you are second-guessing yourself, clearly communicate with her why you'd rather not take that leap of commitment yet.
Cut off phone or text conversationsWhat you did: You've spoken for a while, but when you're keen to end the conversation you warble off a "goodnight" and don't think anything of pulling the plug on your talk. In fact, you might regularly end conversations first.
What she sees: She's either boring you or you just don't wish to take the time to nurture the relationship with communication.
What you should do: Explain to her that you're not a big phone person and would prefer getting to speak to her face-to-face. That way, she won't feel dissed. Ensure that you have really great conversations when you do see each other so she knows you're interested in getting to know her.
Read on to find out how more of your innocent actions get misinterpreted...

My heart speaks
"My heart speaks" is a poem about all the mixed emotions that one person who has been inlove can feel. The words of this poem describes the actions and moods of someone who was inlove but is no longer in love.
My world is torn
My identity is mistaken
My heart is broken
It sounds like alliteration but in one sentence it is the only verb of my description
It describes the way I feel
At present it doesn't matter that I am hardly dressed in this cold winter's night and might catch a cold
It doesn't matter that I feel pain all over my body or that I did not eat the whole day
What matters is what I have just realised
I realised that your reality is not my reality
Your world is not my world
I am such a small part that I do not matter
I try to step into your world but you move away with each step that I take
I turn away now
I walk away now
I might be a bit high
A little too angry
A bit confused
A bit jealous
A bit stupid to make an emotional decision
I cannot speak
My heart speaks
I am hurt

Trump – why the scare, the fuss. Why is he bad ? The talk/criticism during debates have always be surreal. Hillary's mail issue is present n real, the continuation of ongoing policies, is present n real. Not enough of 8 years of current policies ? It is just a different way of getting to a point.
Immigration – may be Mexicans should go to Canada, why insist on USA ?
Just as the Islam believers keep on preferring to go to a Christian-believers countries, WHY ? Is not the Arabs among the richest of the world n of the same belief ?
I am not an American but if I would be one, I would be not happy with having my bulk of taxes paid to support allies, when general state/country support in own place is lacking.
Similar issue in JP, PM Abe happily show off face, using tax money to contribute to ODA while social support for child care, child facilities, the elderly, for instance are at critical conditions. Worse, pension fund, with the famous 18 hours hard working salariman will not be honourable in their old age, when they are all worn out. Frankly, I believe most salariman will be better off if they took care of their own pension fund. The home hardworking wives are a proof – highest saving portion. Imagine the pension contribution fund in their hands ! How sad n such a pathetic policy. If only there is a Trump in JP, who would pledge to put the people's interest first, before caring for other's. I do not see how other could be happy when your own is suffering.
TPP — fair talk, just reciprocal
What a fair big talk. If you were taxing beef for 38%, why can I not tax you for car, 38% ? Of course the JP is not happy, they have to give out also. What a contrary when it comes to treating others fairly for a nation who likes to insist on FAIRNESS to all. As in most cases, WORD ONLY in real life. What a shame.
War – why only one side
Has always been on the side thought. Of course if USA wanted to be world policeman n being acknowledged as such, then they should absorb the full cost of doing so. However, if USA is being put into such a position, should not they be compensated for the cost incurred ? Would not the facilities, equipments, for example be what naturally a government provision for her servicemen/women or they robots, who have no humane lives ? What a heartless assumption if the latter is true.

What version of Spiceworks are you running? Has that device been scanned since the alert was generated? If not, try rescanning it and see if the problem clears up.
Also, you mention deleting the alert. Are you removing the alert from the Monitor and Alerts settings page or you clearing the alert on the device 'sitestserver'? If you are removing the alert from the monitor and alerts settings table, put up a screenshot of your table for me to view. You should mark out anything network specific you don't want publicly viewed.

Maintaining > it should be the least of our worries, either by direct > commit or by patch. Like I said in the Lenya lists thread as long as I have commit access to it I don't care where it goes, lets just get on with it. Why do I want commit access? Because I know I will be working on this, but in my own time. I don't want to hang around waiting for patches to be applied, if I supply a patch on Monday and find I have a little time on Tuesday I want the patch to have been reviewed so that I can proceed. If I *commit* the patch I know it's been reviewed, if it is sitting in a patch queue it has not been reviewed. Sure I can do more work and then submit a new patch, but what if there is a fundamental flaw in the first patch that is taking me in the wrong direction? So apply the patches faster. OK fine, if they get applied quickly (i.e. within 24 hours) that can work, but why increase everyones workload? I'd rather spend my time reading more commit mails than applying more patches, it takes less time, and in a busy schedule every few minutes saved are valuable - multiply that up by all the PMC members responsible for oversight of the project. --- OK, I have commit access to Forrest, commit it there, but there are Lenya folk in the same position as I am. They don't want to wait for the patch cycle. So we need a joint SVN. --- Will they commit because they have access? Probably not, at least not in this first phase. But the time will come, hopefully soon, that they will commit. Doco is important to both communities and to the ASF as a whole. It's now months since I showed how easy it was to render Lenya pages with Forrest. I only did a quick example, with Gregors assistance on the Lenya side. I never created a plugin, we now have one (thanks to Joachim), this first tiny step requires changes to the Lenya publication) - that's why I never created the plugin, I didn't have the knowledge about Lenya, nor the time to understand their language on the Lenya lists. Wouldn't it be great if I could have created the framework of the plugin and said on the Lenya list "OK, please modify the Lenya publication here to do XYZ". [I'll address the joint list thing later] --- Will opening write access undermine the meritocracy process? I'm not sure, I've heard good arguments for yes and no, both pretty convincing. As far as I am concerned this is the only important issue. I'm not sure if it will harm things, but I want to find out. I stated I was against simple committership for the project generally, however, I think this new use case is worth the "risk" since folk have already gone trough the meritocracy process. It will be simple enough for us to revoke it (on an individual basis) if things go wrong. For these reasons I will leave my existing +1 in the vote thread: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=112551931500004&r=1&w=2 Thanks to everyone for their views on this contentious issue, especially those who felt the need to say something like "I'm new/not a committer but here's what I think...", I've not changed my vote, but I think I now have a better understanding of what we need to look for to ensure things are not going wrong as a result of this - everyones input is *extremely* valuable in this thread. Remember PMC members can -1 this, if you really believe this is wrong then use your veto. I've stated my case, if it doesn't convince you then I will argue no further since I am not 100% certain this is the right decision. I'll work with patches if I have to. >>Why not a new incubator project or a new list? >>============================================== Because it moves the important development work away from the core communities that will be creating it. If the project gets too large and creates too much noise, then we can think about splitting it off. But if we do it too early we will only serve to split the communities. > What we actually need is not shared SVN (that is just > a minor convenience). I think I've given a case for it being more than a minor convenience, but maybe not... > What we need is shared communication. > This common mailing list idea is excellent. Yes, but only if it is a "virtual" list as suggested by Nicola. I would not want to see these discussions going on away from the two core communities. I see from another thread Thorsten is on the case (thanks). Ross

When Elizabeth was in China we took a trip to Yangshuo. It is an old town in Guangxi province. It was a good time, but I have never seen so many foreigners in China. The city was filled with tour groups. It didn't bother us, we still enjoyed our stay.
We took a bamboo raft down a river, went to underground caves and had mud baths, toured the city and just had a great time relaxing. The mud bath pics are on my facebook and I can't access facebook now, so I will have to post them later.
Check out the pics.

Scalia Forms Search Committee for New Pope
20 September 13
The article below is satire. Andy Borowitz is an American comedian and New York Times-bestselling author who satirizes the news for his column, "The Borowitz Report."
aying he was "sorry it had to come to this," Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia said today that he was forming an "independent search committee" to select a new Pope.
The visibly upset jurist appeared at a press conference with the sole other member of the newly formed search committee, Justice Clarence Thomas.
Justice Scalia said he had "no other alternative" but to pick a new Pope himself after reading what he called a "disturbing" interview with Pope Francis today: "The Pope said he doesn't want to speak out against abortion and gay marriage. Well, sorry, my friend, but that's the entire job description. You should have thought of that before you let them blow that white smoke in Rome."
Justice Scalia acknowledged that only the College of Cardinals has the legal authority to choose a Pope, but added, "Quite frankly, those jokers got us into this mess. Right, Clarence?"
Justice Thomas had no comment.

Who understands that beloved man/God Jesus was martyr of all martyrs, with his kicking of the money grabbers out of the temple, demanding we care for the poor (yep, Jesus was a 'socialist') etc.? Could be this Pope. From my mouth to God's ear, as we'd say in Ireland.

"See the Web sucks" hating at an all-time high thanks to Zuck's comments yesterday. Not so fast, says @dalmaer ...
Adam Rifkin stashed this in Zuck!
Stashed in: Mobile!, Web Development, The Web, Awesome, The Oatmeal, Haters!, Firefox!, HTML5!
Roaming Twitter I notice a lot of jerks on the "see the Web sucks!" bandwagon after Mark Zuckerberg's interview yesterday.
I like this response from Dion Almaer:
The cross platform strategy may have been wrong, or maybe execution was part of the deal? Having stacks of WebViews was awful. The networking was wack. Many wonder if the implementation was at least part of the problem. I have to think that it was part of the problem.
I paraphrase this to mean:
HTML5 doesn't suck. Facebook's implementation of its app sucked.
It's just that Dion Almaer is much more polite about how he says it than I am.
The Oatmeal says HTML5 is lightning fast, like cheetah balls.
Having abused the crap out of my iPad for the past 7 weeks with Cordova (fka: PhoneGap)
I can attest that the hybrid solution is legit yo!
Glad to hear hybrid is legit. Bonus points for Tone Loc!
Even Zuck acknowledges that HTML5 is good:
"It's not that HTML5 is bad. I'm actually, on long-term, really excited about it. One of the things that's interesting is we actually have more people on a daily basis using mobile web Facebook than we have using our iOS or Android apps combined. So mobile web is a big thing for us."
Mozilla's Brendan Eich interprets Zuckspeak for us:
If you read between the lines, what it seemed he was saying is what they tried to do was hybridise native and HTML, and when you do that there's always a seam between the systems.
A friend of mine, Joe Hewitt, used to be at Facebook and did the first hybrid app and did a very good integration. But he left, and the skill required to keep that seamless — and possibly some of the support from Apple to do it — weren't there in the later versions.
I don't think the web ever loses. It's just a matter of pragmatics and spin that you get into with these things.
Companies like Facebook can afford to do a native [app], especially on iOS, but for the long tail, developers will generally do the Web and often be content there.
If the web can be evolved to include the missing APIs and have better performance, [developers] won't need to go beyond the web.
Well said, Brendan. Well said.
Curious mention of Joe Hewitt by Brendan, considering this bomb;
Joe Hewitt quit Facebook so he could work on a Web related project; that post likely stemmed from the frustration of not having anyone responsible for the Web having (fill in the blank).
Hewitt himself quit iOS development BECAUSE a single entity was controlling it, to his dissatisfaction:
I really feel for Facebook. It seems that not much has changed since 2008 when my team had fallen into the same trap.
Facebook attempted to make the traditional Web tech work in a situation where both Google and Apple stall and control the stakes. Facebook is big, but like us it had zero influence over the matter. When Android OS just came out and Google announced an Android contest, we made a bet trying to give Web all the native power. It felt good. It felt like this was what at least a million people needed. We open sourced the WebView wrapper http://code.google.com/p/bhoost/ and we built a NeoYou movies app on it. See Bhoost video and NeoYou screenshots at http://bhoost.com, preserved unchanged since then.
We had hoped that this was what Google, a Web company, wanted to happen, but WebView bugs which we and others submitted to Google were not even looked at for 2 years. And when they did look, it was someone at Google working against the internal policy, on a personal passion. We learned that we needed to bend the rules of Web tech pretty hard to squeeze out any kind of performance. We used all the tricks that iUI used, we added our own cache manager that pre-fetched assets via XMPP messaging, we separated out most of the native code into a service leaving minimal code on a WebView wrapper as the only way to get any kind of stability and match native apps in some key features, like background operations, surviving reboot, etc., etc., etc., until we finally realized that we would for years be swimming against the stream.
It seems this is the Web-- approach that LinkedIn had taken with their new iPad app (http://engineering.linkedin.com/mobile/linkedin-ipad-nativeweb-messaging-bridge-and-websockets) and may even have worked for them. May be Facebook engineers thought that bending the Web game to such a degree was just not worth it.
We need another player that will change cards on the table, or we will be dragging our sorry Web asses well behind native apps for 10 more years. The only hope I see is Firefox's fast and pretty mobile browser on Android, their https://wiki.mozilla.org/WebAPI effort and a community revolt against Apple blocking all browsers from iPhone. Any other contenders?
Gene, I hear you: Both Google and Apple slowed down the evolution of the mobile Web so they could build huger bases for the platforms.
Firefox is really the only company poised to push for mobile Web, unless a new player emerges.
That player COULD be Facebook or LinkedIn or even Yahoo if they were willing to commit to it.
Mozilla has finally made a real move. I just tested their device WebAPIs in Firefox on Andorid ICS 4.04, Galaxy S2. The battery, vibration, network, accelerometer, camera APIs are already working. But the most exciting thing is that they are planning to get browser to run as a service, hopefully the one that will start on reboot too. I am very excited, and we will start working on incorporating this into our mobile webapp platform. I wonder if we should architect it like MS OnX? Does anyone have good/bad experiences with OnX? Another way to style it is IFTTT. Any suggestions?
I don't have any experience with OnX, but I really like the IFTTT style.
I also applaud this move by Mozilla.
"The Mozilla WebAPI team is pushing the envelope of the web to include --- and in places exceed --- the capabilities of competing stacks."

About MeHey, I'm Clare.
I'm 24 years old and am from San Diego, California. Have been living in Northern Ireland for 13 years now.
Modelling has been a great step for me in regaining my confidence. I am nervous at first but I do lighten up quite a bit once I'm more familiar and comfortable with somebody.
Funnily enough I am most comfortable doing nude photoshoots, and being on the floor (don't know why lol.)
I have one tattoo on my left wrist which is quite small, 3 ear piercings which can be taken out, and the centre of my lower lip which has been done.
My hair is dyed red, though it's naturally auborn.
I am a bigger girl. I have a seven month old daughter and do have quite a few stretchmarks (gross to some but may as well be honest.)
As well, I have a number of scars across my body.
I do wear glasses. However I normally take them for shoots.
At the moment I'm looking to do more shoots that are in public places, have water as a main theme or nature, but I will do most things as to bulk up my portfolio.
If there's anything else, just ask.
I don't bite :)

The plot continues to thicken as more information has surfaced of a 'Nixonian' effort by the Cleveland Browns' organization to plug those darn leaks during an investigation that preceded the firing of director of player personnel T.J. McCreight, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
As we first reported, Plain Dealer columnist Bud Shaw writes that a Browns official was trying to determine if McCreight was leaking information to reporters. While performing that, ahem, due diligence, the erstwhile investigator was given the wrong cell phone number for how to get in touch with McCreight.
Eventually, the official figured out after asking a few questions that it wasn't McCreight on the line. It was a reporter. Hence, the secret was revealed that the Browns were looking into McCreight's phone calls.
A few days later, McCreight was fired.
This 'Watergate' episode would seem to lend further credence to the reports of how coach Eric Mangini operated as HC of the NYJ and will conduct business with the Browns. As Shaw writes, paranoia is making a comeback.
What's next? Are the Browns going to hire G. Gordon Liddy to run the security department?
In all fairness, it's worth nothing that McCreight, who interviewed with team owner Randy Lerner for the General Manager job, was the top lieutenant of former General Manager Phil Savage and could probably expect to be dismissed in a regime change.
Meanwhile, the highly-anticipated coronation of Baltimore Ravens director of pro personnel George Kokinis as the new Browns' General Manager has yet to happen despite Mangini's prediction last week that something big was in the offing. Kokinis is expected to eventually formally accept the job.
Interestingly, Kokinis worked with McCreight in Baltimore for several years, which led many to believe that McCreight would be retained. Apparently, Mangini or someone else had other ideas.

You sure there is gonns be a "Kokman" regime in C-town?? Parcell's could be available now that the ownership in Miami has taken place. How about some "Parman"?? Yeah…I know…thats pathetic!!!

The Randolph and Benito Mangini. What a team.
sorknesa says: Jan 25, 2009 4:47 PM
Maybe this is why Mangini was so successful in NY, focusing on who is talking to the media. What coaching jobs are going to be open for him in three more years?
levitt99 says: Jan 25, 2009 4:56 PM
It bears mentioning that the Browns employ (as Senior Vice President with responsibilities that include security) Lewis Merletti, the Director of the US Secret Service during the Clinton Administration.

bradtor777 says: Jan 25, 2009 6:13 PM
Mangini worries about everything except what his team does on the field. He's all about PR, which is a job he held the last time he worked in Cleveland.
onewolf says: Jan 25, 2009 6:21 PM
Hey Florio,
7 Days and no coronation of the Kok yet. Maybe the next GM is currently awaiting completion of next Sunday's game. I only offer this up because nobody ever raids the Steelers staff much less the Cardinals. With the success of Weisenhunt, who was raided after 06 SB win, one could say it is pausible that there is an interview or 2 still yet to be conducted.
VBG says: Jan 25, 2009 6:46 PM
Stop trying to be "cute" with the Watergate stuff. 90% of the people reading this are more than likely too young to even know who G. Gordon Liddy is and think Deep Throat is only a sexual act.
Fat Frankie The Fella says: Jan 25, 2009 7:37 PM
Good one spanky07, you're right, it is the Browns and no one cares, but it sure is fun watching Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey in Cleveland every year. So glad I'm a Steelers fan. Other than the fact that nothing fun ever happens in Pittsburgh like the stuff that goes on there in Cleveland. ho hum (yawn), another super bowl for us in P-town…bring it!
Trey says: Jan 25, 2009 8:28 PM
What next we are going to have a bunch of protests concerning the Browns' firing of employees based on innuendo?
Spectre says: Jan 26, 2009 1:41 AM
Sounds like T.J. got ManKok-blocked.
dgt2008 says: Jan 26, 2009 8:16 AM
Florio, weren't you the guy a week or two ago who was complaining that the Browns organization was far too chatty with the press. You compared them unfavorably to the close-lipped Chiefs process and talked about sealing up all the leaks. Separately, you also commented about how certain long-term Browns employees (the ones who had delivered little but failure during the last 10 years) probably needed to be replaced, but insinuated that Lerner would not be smart enough to clean house.
Now, with ManKok in place cleaning house and plugging leaks, you're going around making Watergate comparisons.
Which is it?
bingolittle says: Jan 26, 2009 10:23 AM
Bud Shaw for years has been know for his know nothing attitude towards all Cleveland sports. He is an embrassement. If out of towners what to know something about Cleveland sports pay attention to Tony Grossi with the Browns or Terry Pluto for Cleveland sports in general.
Lsachere says: Jan 26, 2009 2:24 PM
Ever heard of McCarthism? J. Edgar Hoover? Nice bit of constitutionality goin' on at the Browns. Oh, sorry, it's Manginism, aka Totaliarinism. What a sick buckeroo. Here they go again!

Rose turned, the moon was full, and stars covered the sky. She slit her eyes. Where were Aquilia and the others? She heard a rustle in the bushes behind her. She scowled and removed her fan from its holder. She knew she was lithe enough to dodge almost any attack. A boy about a year older than her appeared, a copper sword in hand. His brown hair was soaked and falling in front of his icy blue eyes. His stare was unerving. Rose flinced. The boy lunged foward. Rose gasped and jumped aside, the boy falling over. "Damnit..." He cursed, getting back up. But he was too late. Rose's feline fan hit him over the head. She put it back on its holder and put her hands to her mouth. "Crack!" She cast as a small ball of ice hit the boy on the head. Rose laughed slyly. "Thats what you get." The boy looked at the floor, his eyes burning with regreat. "Darn....who the hell do you think you are?" He called. Rose's smile faded, her expression grew dull. "Rose." The boy rolled his eyes. "I mean last name idiot." Rose looked up, tears in her eyes. "My last name.... I don't know.." She sighed. The boy looked at her. "Well i'm Aaron Wilkin." He muttered. She raised her eyebrows. "Ooooo amazing." She said saracasticly, punching him hard on the head.
Aaron awoke in a small hut. He was laying on a bed, his hair soaking the pillow. The fire at the end of the room alarmed him for a second. Rose was sitting at a table. Her brown eyes were glancing at the window. The rain still fell. Aaron shook his head and got up. "Finnaly." She muttered. Aaron looked around. This wasn't Erinns house. He looked her in the eye. "Where am i?" Rose got up. "My old house..." Her voice drifted. "Just come outside." She snapped, opening the door. Aaron made sure his copper sword was firmly in its holder before stepping out. A couple of Cucumbers with spears were outside the door. Before Aaron had a chance to think, they lunged. "Fight!" Called Rose, bringing out her fan. Aaron nodded. He slashed his sword at one, but got punched in the stomach at the same time. He hit his head on the house. Rose was quickly flung into the same position, her head hitting the wall hard. Aarons eyes fluttered. "Damn..." He cursed. "Damn..." Rose repeated.

It is time for commemorations in Kingston Falls and 20 years have passed since the disaster that occurred when the Gremlins came to town: plundering, destruction and persecutions have left a bitter memory in the minds of the peace-loving residents of this small town. A large party is organized for all the town's inhabitants to pay homage to Gizmo (the courageous Mogwai,) and Billy -- the two heroes and Gremlin fighters. But inadvertently that night, Gizmo gets splashed with just enough water to provoke the emergence of a new Mogwai with a white mane, Stripe, who has plenty of mischievous intentions. Stripe manages to stir up trouble in the dance hall and locks all of its occupants up tight so that he can attempt to take control of the city, multiply and let chaos rule again.

Schalke threatened early on and took a deserved lead through the prolific Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, who drilled a classy opener in from 20 yards.
But Bilbao pinned them back before the break courtesy of a sumptuous strike by substitute Ibai Gomez.
Schalke edged ahead through Raul's emphatic strike, but Markel Susaeta put the game out of reach with a low finish. The result was soured only by the yellow card for Javi Martinez, which rules him out of the first leg of the semi-final against Sporting Lisbon.
Having been ambushed 4-2 at the Veltins-Arena last week, Schalke found themselves needing to win by three clear goals at the San Mames. Quite the task given how impressive Marcelo Bielsa's side have been in Europe's second tier club competition this season.
And Schalke were forced to repel some early pressure from the Basque side, who came close when Iker Muniain found the hands of Lars Unnerstall with a header after his run was picked out by Oscar De Marcos's beautiful lofted pass over the defence.
But Huntelaar has been red-hot this season and he looked in the mood as he lashed a volley just over the bar. The Dutchman was a constant menace and put Schalke ahead with a fine low effort from 20 yards.
Rather than kick-start a full Schalke revival, however, the German side were pinned back as Athletic Bilbao reacted with wave after wave of pulsating attacks with Muniain and then Fernando Llorente coming close for the home side.
Bilbao did not relent and Gomez, a first half substitute for the injured Ander Herrera, raised the roof at the San Mames, unleashing a majestic curling effort from 20 yards that nestled in the bottom corner.
The goal put Schalke back to square one, and seemed to have terminally damaged their hopes of an unlikely fightback.
But hope was renewed when the Bundesliga side edged ahead again on the night courtesy of an emphatic strike from Raul, who notched his 77th goal in European competition.
Running onto Chinedu Obasi's lay-off on the edge of the box, the former Real Madrid striker lashed into the top corner with a shot that Gorka Iraizoz could get nowhere near. But just as Schalke have done throughout this two-legged affair, they threw their lead away soon after.
Collecting Muniain's perfectly-weighted through ball, Susaeta squeezed a low shot inside the near post to restore parity on the night.
Schalke continued to threaten through Obasi and substitute Jefferson Farfan, but could not find the goal to make Bilbao sweat in the final moments.
Bilbao, who famously knocked out Manchester United in this competition, now face Manchester City's conquerors in what promises to be another thrilling clash.

'The Lords & The New Creatures' at Nye+Brown: How Jim Morrison's Poetry Book Inspired an L.A. Art Show About Cars
A lime green Pinto is one of the seen-better-days cars that Rob Reynolds photographed for 32 American Cars
Rob Reynolds
"Modern life is a journey by car."
This sentence could have been written yesterday, but it actually appeared in The Lords and the New Creatures, Jim Morrison's first book of published poetry in 1971. Forty years later, little has changed: The car is still king in Los Angeles.
Now, a group show takes on the art of the car -- with a wink to the Lizard King, of course. "The Lords & the New Creatures," which runs in conjunction with Pacific Standard Time, is on view through mid-November at Nye+Brown, Tim Nye and Lexi Brown's new Culver City gallery.
"The show started with a shared interest and curiosity about art making in Los Angeles, and the special status of the car in all of that," said Rob Reynolds, a participating artist who co-organized the show with Nye and Brown. "Taken together, I think the work points to something anxious and interesting about how machines act on the unconscious, and our expectations of total mobility even as we understand how crazy it is."
Sampling three generations of predominantly Los Angeles-based artists, the lords of the show's title include artists such as Peter Alexander, Billy al Bengston, Chris Burden, Judy Chicago, Laddie John Dill, Dennis Hopper and Ed Moses. Juan Capistran, Patrick Lakey, Catherine Opie and Reynolds, among others, represent the new creatures.

Old school versus new school aside, almost all of the artists take on the car in some form. There is Chicago's Bigamy Hood, the hood of a 1965 Corvair covered with symbols in bright yellow, red, pink and blue; Hopper's Double Standard, a black-and-white photograph of a boulevard reflected in a rearview mirror; and Ruscha's minimalist lithograph of the intersection at Melrose and Vine.
If Los Angeles provided the map for the show, each artist chose their own route. For example, Peter Alexander's polyester resin diptych suggests the vanishing point on the horizon while Reynold's photographs of classic cars and old trucks -- a yellow Superbee, a lime green Pinto, a black Electra -- document what he calls "personal monumental sculpture."
Peter Alexander's Diptych (7/20/11)

To set the scene, well-worn books are displayed with the artwork, such as Joan Didion's Play It As It Lays, Ed Ruscha's Twentysix Gasoline Stations and, of course, a copy of Morrison's The Lords and the New Creatures.
"We were thinking about Los Angeles at a particular time in the 60s," Brown explained. "We were thinking about what was happening here, what was popular, what was being read, what people were listening too, what artists were getting into, what the work looked like. It just seemed natural that elements of popular culture at the time were influencing the show."
At the recent opening, the crowd spilled into the alley behind the gallery. Perhaps it was only fitting that at one point, a vintage American car spent several minutes revving its engine and spewing fumes before, finally, rumbling off into the night.
The crowd was left wondering: Performance art or just a ride home?
"The Lords & the New Creatures" is on view through mid-November at Nye+Brown, 2685 La Cienega Blvd., Los Angeles, 310-559-5215 or www.nyeplusbrown.com.

Dawoud Bey
August 2, 8 PM
Dawoud Bey
Dawoud Bey began his career as a photographer in 1975 with a series of photographs, "Harlem, USA," that were later exhibited in his first one-person exhibition at the Studio Museum in Harlem in 1979. He has since had numerous exhibitions worldwide,
at such institutions as the Art Institute of Chicago, the Barbican Centre in London, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Detroit Institute of Arts, the Walker Art Center, among many others. In 2012 the Renaissance Society at the University of Chicago organized Dawoud Bey: Picturing People, a survey exhibition of his work from 1981-2012. Harlem, USA was published by Yale University Press in conjunction with the Art Institute of Chicago in May 2012, where the work was exhibited in its entirety for the first time since it was first shown in 1979. Bey recently completed a commissioned project with the Birmingham Museum of Art that commemorates the bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church fifty years ago. Bey's works are included in the permanent collections of numerous museums, both in the United States and abroad. He has been honored with numerous fellowships, including the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship (2002) and a fellowship from the National Endowment for the Arts (1991).
Bey's larger project over the past three decades has been the making of resonant photographs of peoples within marginalized communities that seek to position those subjects within their own social space and histories as well as the larger historical conversation about the portrait and issues of representation. While using the portrait as a site of psychological representation, narrative meaning, historical reimagining, and social agency, Bey's work raises the questions of who is represented or not, and how.
Dawoud Bey holds a Master of Fine Arts degree from Yale University School of Art and is currently Professor of Art at Columbia College Chicago, where he has taught since 1998. He is represented by Mary Boone Gallery, New York and Rena Bransten Gallery, San Francisco. www.dawoudbey.net

ATLANTA (AP) Eric Hinske's (FSY) two-run double broke an eighth-inning tie and Chipper Jones (FSY) had three RBIs to help the Atlanta Braves win their fifth straight game, 8-5 over the Kansas City Royals on Sunday.
Melky Cabrera (FSY) added an RBI single in the eighth off Blake Wood (FSY) (0-1) for the Braves, who improved to 24-7 at home. Atlanta moved 2 games ahead of the second-place New York Mets in the NL East.
BOX SCORE: Braves 8, Royals 5
Craig Kimbrel (FSY) (2-0) earned the win by pitching a scoreless eighth, but it wasn't easy. The right-hander loaded the bases on two walks and his own fielding error before striking out two and escaping the jam on Billy Butler's (FSY) popup.
Billy Wagner (FSY) struck out two in a scoreless ninth for his 14th save in 16 chances.
Jones' RBI double off Kyle Farnsworth (FSY) in the sixth scored Jason Heyward (FSY) from second to tie it at 5. Atlanta took a 4-0 lead in the first on two-run doubles by Jones and Omar Infante (FSY).
The Royals rallied for a 5-4 lead with RBI singles in the second by Brayan Pena and Chris Getz (FSY), and with a three-run third that included Jose Guillen's (FSY) RBI single, Mitch Maier's (FSY) run-scoring infield single and Getz's RBI double.
Kenshin Kawakami (FSY), the first starting pitcher in Braves history to begin a season by losing nine straight decisions, was chased by Guillen's hit in the third, the last of three consecutive singles to begin the inning.
Kawakami allowed six hits and five runs — four earned — with no walks and one strikeout. It was the shortest of his 39 starts in the major leagues. He also has committed three errors in his last two games.
Cristhian Martinez (FSY), who allowed two of his inherited runners to score in the third, pitched the next three innings. Eric O'Flaherty (FSY) worked the sixth and Peter Moylan (FSY) the seventh for Atlanta.
Royals starter Kyle Davies (FSY) walked a career-high seven in 4 1-3 innings. The right-hander gave up four hits and four runs while striking out six. In his last five starts, Davies is 1-2 with a 9.78 ERA.
NOTES: Braves RHP Takashi Saito (FSY) could come off the 15-day disabled list before Tuesday's road game against the Chicago White Sox. Saito struck one in one inning of a rehab appearance Sunday at Triple-A Gwinnett. ... Royals manager Ned Yost said RHP Gil Meche (FSY) has "moved out of recovery phase" with a bullpen session. Meche, on the DL with shoulder bursitis, is 0-4 with a 6.66 ERA in nine starts. Kansas City hopes he can return next month.

This is a guest post by Margaret Jules from SEO Morpheus.
Of late, Negative SEO has been much in discussion. Many people are spreading false information about this concept being a new one.
But is it really so?
Actually, Negative SEO is not a new concept to deal with. Ever since the concept of search engine optimization hit the market, there has been positive and negative SEO strategies. Shady tactics were there during the past as well in this present era. In fact, it will continue in the near future also.
Applying negative SEO strategies can help in quick success; but, site's reputation will definitely come at stake. So, be very careful and stay away from negative SEO attacks.It is also necessary to identify the necessary negative SEO threats and opt for proper preventive methods. Before learning about the steps to prevent negative SEO attacks, it is necessary to know one basic thing. Negative SEO do require high dedication, monetary involvement, and time to work properly. Not every site can be easily targeted with such an approach.It is not only about those low quality websites that are pointed by the site. It will never hurt the reputation of a site as long the other factors are carried out in a proper manner.
Those who have carried out some unsavory activity in the past regarding website false hosting, then chances are there that there will be negative SEO attacks. However, if someone has taken enough time to develop a website while focusing strongly on certain organic strategies, then lesser chances of negative SEO attack is there.
Below are some points that emphasizes strongly on identifying negative SEO threats and suitable prevention steps to apply.
Setup for weekly Emails
Google Webmaster Tool is one of the best option available for setting up the website for weekly email notification. The "email forwarding" option is present in Webmaster Tool. However, it is better to update the site in Bing's Webmaster Center for receiving emails where there is some new messages. It can be set on a weekly, daily, or even monthly basis. Having connection on two notable search engines will help in receiving immediate notification as soon there is something wrong or negative with the site.
Check the Website on a regular basis
Hand checking of the website is a must. It is better to appoint a professional for such an act. The volunteer will work privately and will provide updates on the performance of the website. Pay some remuneration to the volunteers for their time and effort. This is one of the process that helps in identifying the performance of the site on a regular. This process gives you peace of mind that the site is working right and also gives you some information about usability.
Regular tracking of Site Links
There are several online web tools like Majestic SEO, AHREF, and OpenSIte Explorer available that can effectively track down the we link metrics. Choose any of these availale tools and use it regularly for output. Focus strongly on the total number of root domains and links associated with the site. In case there is some changes, the reason needs to be sorted out.
So, let's start with the above mentioned three procedures to check whether the site is attacked with negative SEO or not. In fact, take time to develop sites while following the above mentioned strategies and negative SEO will be out of question.

Summary: Hinata finally had enough courage to tell Naruto that she loves him but he doesnt feel the same will someone heel hinata's heart or just break it again.
Hinata was walking home all of a sudden she heard Naruto . She walked over to where she heard Naruto. Sakura looked mad she punched Naruto in the head every time he asked her out or said a bad comment about Sasuke. As Sakura and Natuo still holding his head from where Sakura had punched him. They were waiting for sasuke well sakura was any way. Hinata was finally going to tell Naruto that she liked him hopifully he'll feel the same when all of a sudden
"What do you think your doing hear" a voice said codly (but you can guess who this is) Hinata slowely turned around to be faced to face with the ice prince himself (well thats what every calls him) "Well are you going to answer my question or just stand there" he said "Oh I-I was jjust..." before she could finish what she was going to say she was cut off by Sakura "Sasuke-kun your hear finally I was worried you know" Sakura said with glee in her voice (glee means like happy)
all of a sudden she jumped on sasuke hugging him he could hardly breath "Is there any girl in konoha who isnt a fangirl" Sasuke thought as he tried to get loose of Sakura's grip on him "Sakura...let...me...GO!" he said when he finally got loose of Sakura's grip he noticed that Hinata had lefted "Great now where she go" he wondered as he looked around. He noticed Hinata staring at Naruto " What does she see in that... DOBE that I dont have" Sasuke thought as he stared at Hinata unkowingly that she and everyone else had noticied
" Why is he staring at me like that Oh no I dont have anything on face do I hopifely Naruto didnt notice well he is a little dense" Hinata pondered as Sasuke stared at he like if he ws in deep thought about something "Why is MY Sasuke-Kun he doesnt like her does he no he doesnt" Sakura thought but her inner-self was more like "what does that girl have that I dont have I'm 10x prettier than her" (Sakura is sorta concetied in this story)
Sakura's inner-self said. On the other side Naruto was too dence to really notice "Hey BAKA what are you starring at"Naruto said/asked. Sasuke looked up and blushed just a little but noone could see it well except Hinata "Did he just blush no it must just be my mined playing tricks on me again" Hinata thought not knowing that Naruto just noticied her "HINATA-SAN WHEN D'YOU GET HEAR" Naruto practily yelled in her ear " Oh I-I was j-just walking a-around when I n-noticied you g-guys standing h-hear" Hinata said Sasuke couldnt STAND Hinata's stuttering problem he thought it was annoying.
Naruto just grinned his famous grin which of cource mad Hinata blush madly which Sasuke also thought was very annoying "I cant even make her blush like that- WAIT why do I even care its not even like I like her" Sasuke thought to himself "Um N-Naruto-Kun I w-was just w-wondering if you w-would l-like to go w-with me on a w-walk" Hinata said nervoucely awaiting her answer while twiddiling her fingers like she always does when she's nervouse
"Sure Hinata-san I'll go for a walk with you" Naruto said while Hinata sighed in relife strangely Sasuke was jelouse?. As Hinata and Naruto were walking she finally had some courage to tell Naruto "N-Naruto-kun I-I need to t-tell you some t-thing" Hinata said not knowing if she was making the right desicions but unkowingly two onyx eyes were following them while they were walking (Bet you know who that is too) "What is it Hinata-san" Naruto said
" W-well I-I like y-you alot N-Naruto-kun and I-I was w-wondering if y-you" before she could finish her sentence Naruto cut in "Hinata I think its sweet how you like me but you know I like sakur plus I think your kinda Weird " Hinata was heart broken she was about to cry on the spot but she didnt she wanted to look strong, confedient in front of Naruto even though he just broke her heart she was not going to allow herself to cry.
All she could say was " I-I understand" and all Naruto could say was "good we should stay friends cause I dont want you to get hurt" even though unkowingly he is the one who hurt her the most as she left Hinata could feel like she was being followed, stalked she just could feel some one eyes on her so her first instict was to run so she did she ran as fast as she can not knowing that tears were pouring down her face when all of a sudden she trips awaiting the impact which didnt come? instead she opens her eyes to be in the hand of non-other then...

About us
|Nufarm has been helping European farmers grow a better tomorrow for over 15 years.
We always listen to the local needs of our customers and develop innovative solutions that enable them to meet the complex food, feed and renewable energy requirements of tomorrow. We are committed to simplify farming so that our customers, distributors and partners can succeed inside the unique European environment. This is why we manufacture our own products within the EU, so we can ensure they are made to work here.
We employ a large development team in Europe that create products to work on highly-resistant weeds, and products that work more quickly upon application and from packaging that saves time.
This is why we have on-the-ground staff in all the markets we operate, so we can offer farmers training and stewardship programs with simple and effective advice when and where they need it. It is also why we find ways to create tailored crop protection, and develop new seed technology that offers the best mix of value and performance. We support the local communities of our distributors and growers.
At Nufarm, we grow a better tomorrow by making farming easier.
