He called particular attention to the "tremendous increase" in minority scores "The districts that have the greatest percentage of minorities are increasing the most, ' ' he said.

A list he distributed Saturday showed there is a back order of 22,511 books "With 32 million students and every student having five or six books, that may be a pretty small percentage in total books But it is my position that if we have any student out there without a single book, we have a problem," Kirby said Class explores Mexico in crisis SEGUIN — Texas Lutheran College is offering a three-week course which will give students a true taste of Mexico as they travel and explore the country's current economic crisis and its human impact "Mexico: A People in Crisis" will be taught May ll 29 by TLT professor of theology Tom WH kens The course is part of TLC's new May Study program and u» open to all college students and non-college students 21 years old or older.

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is a federal agency within the Technology Administration of the Department of Commerce. NIST's primary mission is to develop and apply technology, measurements, and standards to promote economic growth by working with U.S. industry. Established in 1901 as the National Bureau of Standards (NBS), the institute was renamed in 1988. NIST carries out its mission through four interwoven programs: (1) the Measurement and Standards Laboratories, providing vital components of the nation's technology infrastructure needed by U.S. industry to continually improve products and services; (2) the Advanced Technology Program, providing cost-shared awards to industry for development of high-risk, enabling technologies with broad economic potential; (3) a grassroots Manufacturing Extension Partnership with a nationwide network of local centers and business assistance to smaller manufacturers: and (4) a quality outreach program associated with the Malcom Baldridge National Quality Award that recognizes business performance excellence and quality achievement by U.S. manufacturers and service companies. NIST employs about 3,300 scientists, engineers, technicians, and support personnel and hosts about 1,250 visiting researchers each year. Fiscal year 1998 operating resources from all sources totaled about $790 million. The Institute maintains research facilities at its Gaithersburg, MD (234 hectare campus about 30 km northwest of Washington, DC with about 2,700 employees) and Boulder, Colorado (84 hectare campus about 42 km north west of Denver with about 600 employees). There are seven Measurement and Standards Laboratories. They are: Electronics and Electrical Engineering Laboratory, Manufacturing Engineering Laboratory, Chemical Science and Technology Laboratory, Physics Laboratory, Materials Science and Engineering Laboratory, Building and Fire Research Laboratory, Information Technology Laboratory.

I'd planned to be gliding calmly through the food hall at 7.30am, but instead, I woke at 8am to find my daughter's foot in my ear, having spent 2am-5am being told my hair smelled of strawberries, my bottom smelled of crisps and could she have a cuddle, please.
We tried the "How will Santa know to leave you your presents if you don't sleep in your own bed?" routine but it didn't work, and now there is no baby corn, no bread sauce and the sort of fruity stuffing that only Stella McCartney could love.
Last night, my husband announced that, unless he got on a train to some unspecified location outside London, my Christmas present might be a little bit late this year. "First they made a mistake, then I made a mistake," he muttered, one hand tapping out a deadline all the while.
He got to bed last night at 2am, because his colleague in New York could only do a 9pm phone call, and the job needs to be finished before Christmas. Like most people in London who attempt to take a few days off at Christmas, he has to work 16-hour days either end of the holiday. His footsteps on the creaky stairs woke up our daughter, which led to us sleeping in. Now today is shaping up much like yesterday, when I spent 45 minutes queuing in a Marylebone deli to get a slice of French artisanal cheese that had sold out two hours previously.
Was Christmas ever thus? When I was a child, I behaved as a child: I sat watching telly while my mother whirled dervishly around. Never is there a time more poignant than Christmas to marvel at your mother, who magicked Christmas not from a hat or an M&S branch but from the vast reserves of her own selflessness.
There are many rites of passage to adulthood but none more terrifying than the realisation that Christmas Day is down to you. You are the mother now. It's you who needs to buy the presents, source the food, make the table pretty, Lemsip yourself against the seasonal flu, hunt down the stray parcel and gather up the baby corn because it is your offspring's favourite vegetable.
Bing Crosby has a lot to answer for. There we all were, dreaming of a white Christmas, and now look at us. We imagined snowy country lanes, not blocked ones. As I stood in the M&S checkout, I wondered whether the bad weather is some sort of lesson wreaked by a god who, if not vengeful, is at least dismayed that we worship so blindly at the altar of consumerism, chasing after baby corn as though the true meaning of Christmas is to be found on a dinner plate. Maybe we are being stopped in our tracks for a reason, and the reason is to make us think.
Always lunching with the A-list
I don't get out to lunch much but on the rare occasions that I do, I seem to have a knack of plumping for the same restaurant as a passing celebrity. I have broken bread with Simon Cowell at Cipriani; slurped lobster pasta with Gwyneth Paltrow at Locanda Locatelli, and, earlier this week, appeared to be dining in the company of half the royal family at Mark Hix. "Oh look. It's Camilla Parker Bowles!" I exclaimed to my companion as the starters came. It was terribly exciting.
Hix's new Soho restaurant seems to be a magnet for trendies, who, to a man, were wearing navy blue Husky jackets by Barbour. The Parker Bowleses, meanwhile — Tom, wife Sara and cousin Ben Elliot — were dressed down, in jeans and sweatshirts. "Isn't it funny," said my companion, "how everyone is dressing posh, except the posh." "Quite," I said, surreptitiously nudging my pashmina under the table.
Seasonal irritation number 102
I paid $45 to have a present shipped via USPS (United States Postal Service) from New York. When the package didn't turn up, I duly typed my tracking number into the USPS website. Hey presto: a time and date of the package's progress, ending with the ominous news that it had been "delivered in Great Britain" three days ago. Not to my house, it hadn't.
I called my local sorting office, quoting the tracking number. "That's Parcelforce," said the woman, her mouth full of bacon roll. "Your parcel's at your local post office. Didn't they leave a card?" Er, no. They didn't even bother ringing the doorbell, seeing as on the date they claimed to have delivered it I was in the house all day. I'm glad to have paid $45 for a service that is less reliable than the second-class post.
For years reviled as a disorganised incompetent, it looks like the last-minute Christmas shopper is having the last laugh. Thanks to a number of stores bringing forward their Boxing Day sales, never has the prospect of some mad-dash Christmas Eve shopping looked more appealing.
2009: the year of the 'stealth sale'
Then again, savvy shoppers have been taking advantage of sale prices all month: stores might not have been shouting it from the rooftops but many have been on secret sale for weeks now. 2009 has been the year of the "stealth sale": I know of many luxury brands and posh department stores who have sent emails to their mailing list offering 20-30 per cent off select items.
While this might rankle with those of us who paid top dollar for our presents, at least we won't need to bother with the charade that is the January sales. After all, there will be nothing decent left.

Busted!! ... Wait What Did I Do? 2
Later that night when I came home from four movies by myself, I snatched a couple of cookies from the cookie jar then started climbing the stairs to the second floor, remembering to dodge the 5th step because it squeaked. I didn't want to get cornered by my mother, even though I have no idea why she wants to talk to me. As I opened my door, there she sat, on my bed.
"Hi hun. How was the movie?"
"Good. I…uh…we watch four movies."
"Oh okay, well I forgot who you went with. Who was it again?"
"It was um Elliot, Brandon, Courtney and Brittany."
"Oh well, thats interesting. Courtney just called asking if you wanted to go shopping."

Sam: Temper TemperMature
We had decided to hold our first practice session together at five in the evening. When the time came, I took my guitar case and headed for the practice room. While I was approaching the entrance, I heard Emma's voice coming from inside.
"It's right here in the register book." she was saying. "5 pm: Emma and Sam. We have the room booked. You should come back later."
I went in and recognized the four guys to be Brian and The Kooks from last night's party.
"First come, first serve, babe. That's how it works around here." Brian replied.
"But that's not the rule!" protested Emma.
"Listen, I make the rules around here. My father could buy and sell this whole damn school if I told him to."
Emma seemed to give up and turned around. Catching sight of me, she gave a weak smile and I walked up to her.
"I don't know what to do," she said. "Maybe I should complain to the head co-ordinator."
"Don't bother, we're in no hurry." I reasoned. "We'll come back a little later tonight, okay?" She smiled and nodded.
I walked up to Brian, who was fixing up the amplifier, to ask him if they'd be done in two hours.
"Hey..." I started.
"Listen, freak," Brian interrupted. "I'm getting tired of this. Either take your girl and that excuse of an instrument that you call a guitar and get the hell out of here, or I'm gonna make you get the hell out of here."
I smiled. I guess it's a strange thing to do when you're angry, but I've done it all my life. People who know me take it as a dangerous sign when I smile for something that's not funny. I guess I have a bit of a nasty temper.
Living on the streets had taught me many things. One of them was how to throw a punch. Hell, you can't survive on the streets if you don't know how to throw a punch.
Brian never saw it coming.

Black Cats edge through tight tie ...
Carlisle United put on a great performance at the Stadium of Light as they pushed Sunderland all the way for the right to progress to round four of this season's FA Cup competition.
But it was the Black Cats who won through as they stayed patient and grabbed two second half goals to send their stubborn visitors packing.
United kicked off to a loud chorus of chants from the packed away section of the ground and they were immediately on the front foot as Noble fed Amoo on the right flank. He went past one but was stopped in his tracks as he tried to make his way into the box.
Another quick break involving Guy, Buaben and Amoo brought the first corner of the afternoon but Wes Brown jumped high to head it clear.
Sunderland slowed the pace of the game down and Sean O'Hanlon had to time his sliding interception right as Altidore bent his run to meet a through pass from Ki. The Black Cats came again moments later with a neat passing move and Buaben survived loud home appeals for a penalty as he nicked the ball off Gardner just inside the area.
Both teams were guilty of conceding possession in good areas as the game became scrappy but Johnson showed guile to create space for a cross with United light at the back. Ehmer put it behind for a corner and Larsson disappointed with a wayward shot which was always going wide when the half clearance landed at his feet.
The first clear cut opening of the day came on 17 minutes when Altidore took a defence splitting pass in his stride. Fleming stayed big and completed a fantastic save as the big forward bore down on goal.
Carlisle picked up the loose pieces and sprang forward and a blocked Potts delivery fell nicely for Amoo to clip back into the mix. Noble stepped forward to put his boot through it as Sunderland struggled to clear but a brave interception robbed him of his moment of glory. The action ebbed and flowed and Ji Dong-Won was frustrated by another double block as Ehmer and O'Hanlon closed ranks.
The Cumbrian contingent were on their feet on 22 minutes when Prince Buaben twisted and turned his way into the box. His shot went through legs and had to be clawed away from the bottom corner by a full stretch Vito Mannone. Tom Lawrence hooked the punched corner clearance back into the area and Amoo watched in hope as his looped header was plucked out of the sky by the attentive stopper.
A long ball forward from defence brought an unexpected opening for Robson as he controlled the ball on his chest. It was on his right foot and he was frustrated to see it bobble harmlessly wide.
The Black Cats enjoyed a good spell either side of the half hour and Fleming completed another excellent save to deny Gardner as he let fly from 22 yards. The pressure was on from the corner and Celutska asked for more from Altidore as he worked hard to recover the ball wide on the right. The striker had his back to goal and miscued his connection as he spun to volley it goalwards.
Set pieces were a constant danger and Ji Dong-Won was a millimetre away from getting the touch he needed as Larsson curled a beauty across the face of the six yard box.
Disaster struck on 33 minutes when Dossena hit the floor within shooting distance for left footer Adam Johnson. Greg Fleming had no chance as the bullet free kick angled over the wall before finding its way into the top corner.
Heads didn't drop and Ki Sung Yeung was mightily relieved when he fell deep to deal with a cross from Berrett. Under pressure from Robson he tried to control it with his thigh, and he was a whisker away from guiding it into his own net.
United's resilience and persistence paid off just before the break when David Amoo mesmerised the back line with a wonderful run. His cross had the keeper in state of panic but Matt Robson kept his head, took a touch and rifled the bouncing ball into the back of the net off the underside of the bar.
Carlisle looked confident and Buaben and Amoo combined to open things up once more on the stroke of half time. Berrett checked his run and he was well placed to pick up the ricochet as Amoo went for the target. Mannone was wrong-footed but he scrambled across to deal with the deflected shot.
The Cumbrians were quick out of the blocks again after the break and an early corner had to be dealt with as United flooded the box. Ehmer and O'Hanlon challenged but Brown stepped in to loft the ball away.
But United were dealt a cruel on 50 minutes when Adam Johnson sent a first time volleyed cross back across the face of goal. Sean O'Hanlon had to stretch to try to block it and he was visibly devastated when it spun up off the top of his boot and into the far corner of the net.
Carlisle responded by taking the game to their hosts and an inch perfect through ball from Noble took Potts to the byline. His cross was hacked clear as Guy waited to strike.
The Black Cats slowed the pace of the game whenever they had possession and United had to stay patient as goalmouth action became hard to find. Substitute Duncan Watmore almost marked his arrival with a memorable goal when he ran from deep at the heart of the defence. A one-two back heel from Altidore left the goal at his mercy but Fleming closed the angles and made a fantastic two-handed save.
United were forced to bide their time but a mistake high up the pitch gave Symington a chance to go on a run. He made his way down the touchline but his cross was cleared by Brown as Miller jumped to challenge.
The Premier League strugglers were happy to keep the ball as the clock ticked down but they still looked a threat as they sent balls into the area. Altidore was once more foiled when he got onto the end of a flick but he couldn't get it out from under his feet and Fleming gratefully pulled it into his chest.
Sunderland defended their lines well and a whipped cross from Robson typified the visiting frustration as it was cleared on the rebound with five blue shirts waiting for their chance.
The United contingent applauded their players off the park at the final whistle having seen a hard working and determined display which, in the end, wasn't quite enough as Ba made sure of the result when he ran through to slide a late goal under the stranded Greg Fleming.

And, regardless of whether they contribute to regional ozone levels, Maine's industrial polluters should still be held to strict emissions standards, at least for the benefit of those who live in the immediate vicinity of those facilities, not to mention the rest of us assholes who depend on policies such as the OTR to tamp down emissions worldwide.
Enviros also point out that if Maine were to succeed in this endeavor, other states that are in compliance (such as Vermont, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island) could request similar waivers, which would only result in higher emissions across the Northeast. "We'll be back where we were 25 years ago, with dirtier air," Brand says.
The rule change must be approved by the federal Environmental Protection Agency. In response to requests from several environmental and public health organizations, the DEP announced on Tuesday that it would host a full public hearing on this issue in the fall.

ED Magedson – Founder
Ripoff Report
Liberty National Insurance CompanyBirmingham, Alabama United States of America
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
Liberty National Insurance Company Trainwreck Birmingham, Alabama
Liberty National is a "trainwreck"
Their creed is the following and appears in there literature
Since its organization in 1900 "The Guiding principle of Liberty National Life Insurance Company has been to achieve sucess by deserving it, to protect its policyholders with a fair unselfish contract and to serve them faithfully,adequately,honestly and economically"
"Every decision considered at Liberty National must benefit the customer,the agent and the commpany."
Each is equal in importance,and if any one of them is missing we simply won't do it
IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING JOINING LIBERTY, DO NOT BELIEVE this propaganda for a minute.Check the history of this company withs regards to its cancer exchange program lawsuits.This company will also allow you to pay more into a policy than you can recieve.
I personaly have seen 2 policies recently where the insureds had paid in two times what the beneficiarys are going to recieve.
The company cares about one thing and one thing only and that is maximizing the earnings for the shareholders and the analyst.
Liberty is a 100 year old company and its management team has hundreds of combined years of expeirence.
You have to ask yourself how did the company lose 30% of their agents in 2004 and 50% in 2009
Ask the person interviewing you to show you a copy of the recent AM Best report
If you really want to see how Liberty is performing you can read about them in the annual reports which are on line.The comments from the President are a "broken record" of comments ."We are turning the corner at Liberty or I am optimistic that the next quarter will be better"
How is that this company with all of its changes and management leadership in the past 10 years has not made the company grow.In fact since 1998 inforce life premium has declined.Compare this record to their competitors.
Branch managers recruited 60,000 applicants last year and less than 300 agents will make it past their 1st anniversary.(Mgrs are required to recruit 10 prospective agents per week.Multiply this times 160 offices at 40 weeks a year)
The company promotes their agent position as an "Opportunity of a Lifetime"
If this was such an opportunity why are agents and managers leaving as fast as they come in ?
Branch and Unit Managers and former managers owe hundreds of thousands of dollars to the company due to lapsed policies which are a result of wholsale recruiting, poor training and mediocre products and ineffective leadership in the home office.
Thes managers are paid for the most part on newer agents ( less than 6 months in the business).If you can make it for 6 months the manager neither cares nor can afford to help becasue his # 1 job is to recruit and not manage
In fact he would he or she would prefer to see you leave and then the manager could give your accounts to a newer agent.
Liberty's niche is worksite and the middle income market.
Their focus is to specialize in writing insurance of $ 50,000 or less.In my opinion they have no regard for the well being of customers family, otherwise they would encourge agents to write more insurance and not penalize them when they do
Yes that is true, Liberty pays less commssion when you write bigger/larger face amount policies.
The true purpose of life insurance is to replace the economic value of the person
Liberty's agent for the most part are nothing more than "policy peddlers".
Before going to work for this company Do You Homework
Check the AM Best Report and other internet website comments
Ask the person or manager recruiting you the following
How many agents have you trained that are still in the business ?
The answer will shock you
Don't believe all of the hype
Only 200-300 agents are making any enough money.
Ask for the weekly bulletin and get the manager to explain in detail what it is and means.
In the last 3 years mgt has changed the compensation plan 7 times
Does this sound like a company that has it act together
Thank You Rip Off Report for allowing me to write this
The insurance business is a good career but this company, well let me just say this
Their record speaks for itself
No growth in the past 10 years
Lose 30 % of their agents in 2004 and then 50% in 2009
Agent Who Can't Afford To Retire Yet
Birmingham Alabama

Teenagers Talking
This is a fictional blog entry I wrote for part of my English Language coursework.
Feel free to add your own blog entry through the voice of a fictional character and topic of your choosing.
(See Author's Guidance for more details)
This blog entry is directed at my young followers.
My friends, the ones that haven't already fallen off this mortal coil, are always telling me to move with the times, 'go with the flow,' it's the 21st Century. Stopping short of dying my hair pink and wearing, what my granddaughter informs me are called onesies (which are utterly ridiculous by the way, you look like overgrown babies), I like to think that I am fairly lenient, even actively interested, when it comes to the youth of today. To some extent my views changed when I went online and saw how you are all shamelessly abusing the English Language; if this makes me an "old fart" then so be it!
I became a silver surfer several months ago; my family bought me a computer for my 75th birthday and since then I've joined various social networking sites (Facebook and Twitter) and contributed to several forums. It was hard work adjusting to this new piece of technology, coming from a time the younger generations refer to as B.C. (before computers). Yet retired life has given me free time to master its complexities, challenges that I know my young readers may take for granted.
Before I incite a riot of outraged teenagers I would first like to point out that I do not see anything seriously wrong with the occasional use of acronyms – such as BLT, BBQ or BBC – in informal everyday conversations. In fact, I quite enjoy working out the ones in the paper each Sunday morning. Neither are they a new invention. They existed in written language a long time before technology had a chance to interfere with our lives. It was not long ago that LOL stood for lots of love. I myself used to sign off letters to my late husband with SWAK (sealed with a kiss). So what's my problem?
Nowadays acronyms are cropping up left, right and centre on the internet. It is impossible to track their meaning. What irritates me the most is that the majority of them are spawned from laziness. How hard is it to type "be right back" instead of "brb," or "see you later" instead of "cya l8r"?
There's also this whacky teenage craze of putting numbers into words. Leetspeak, I think it's called. My grandson uses it all the time when he's on his X-box. But it doesn't end there. These "words" also include a bunch of random characters found on the keyboard and deliberate misspellings. It's as if Standard English never existed and the world had been taken over by mindless, foul-mouthed aliens.
Back in my day, if we were caught saying such vulgar atrocities we would have had soap forced down our throats and would be left choking up bubbles for weeks afterwards – I didn't do it again, well at least not where any adult could hear me. In school, spelling and grammatical errors were corrected by a sharp slap of a ruler.
I understand that you young folk feel the need to distinguish yourselves from the rest of us alter cockers. Moreover, I realise that one of the ways you do this is by creating new slang words, forgetting old "uncool" ones and trying to avoid any use of the Queen's English. But, really, is that an excuse to use such foul language over the internet?
Teenagers today can act however they please, whether online or in real life, and show little regard to the consequences. Just the other day I had a run-in with a bunch of hooligans at my local grocery shop. They were crowding round the exit, in their hoodies and low-slung jeans, refusing to let anyone pass. When I confronted them, politely asking them if I could past, my response was a mumble from inside the dark abyss of a hood. Only the swear words were perfectly articulated. It was not until the owner threatened to call the police that they finally decided to leave.
On the internet there is no authority to put the yobs in their place. There are virtually no restrictions and you can post whatever you like. I personally find it disgusting that most sites do not censor out bad language and others sites don't even give users the option of reporting abusive comments.
So I urge you, young followers, if you love the English language as much as I do: protect it. Don't soil its value. As the younger generation its future lies in your hands.

The Glaciers of the AlpsGetting to the top of these mountains happened just in time, late on a cool, crisp day on one of my first afternoons in Switzerland. I knew things would be beautiful way up here in the upper atmosphere, but I honestly did not expect the streaming confluence of flowing ice. This is always a nice and unexpected aspect of glaciers - how they look like they are flowing and still at the same time.

Can Spiceworks create a forum/discussion group for WAN acceleration technologies?
We're using Cisco WAAS and I wanted to see what other admin's experiences are with it.
4 Replies
Feb 17, 2010 at 5:38 UTC
Do you find the Cisco or Networking groups too broad to meet your needs?
Feb 18, 2010 at 6:46 UTC
They are a little broad, and it would seem to me that the subject of WAN optimization / accelration would be a topic with a lot of vendors and options. I could only find a couple posts about WAN optimization.
Just a thought....
Feb 18, 2010 at 12:16 UTC
Thanks for the suggestion Sam. Generally we find that adding forums to try and start more conversations doesn't work too well. If you'd found a lot of discussions about WAN optimization, that would be evidence for needing a separate forum. Best to use the forums Ben suggested, and then if we see a growing number of posts, we'd consider a separate forum.
Feb 18, 2010 at 12:24 UTC
We'll do...

Back-To-School Shopping: Tips For Getting It Right
Florida's tax-free, back-to-school shopping weekend is taking place from Friday, August 1st, through Sunday, August 3rd.
Back-to-school shoppers can take advantage of sales many stores are staging for the holiday.
Tax-free items are clothing and footwear $100 or less, school supplies $15 or less, and computers and certain electronics $750 or less.
Local financial advisor Richard Ehrlich from Secure Wealth Planning Group has some tips to help keep families from breaking the bank with back to school shopping.
Ehrlich says research shows families are shopping the wrong way by spreading out the shopping days.
It turns out that actually increases average spending.
Ehrlich recommends making a shopping list with a budget and a plan to get all the shopping done in one day, emphasizing that the sales-tax holiday is definitely a good time to save money.
Ehrlich says there are other strategies to saving, though, including waiting on things your child does not need right away.
You can hold off for clearance sales that come up after Labor Day.

BeschreibungThe book represents a compilation of case studies about Japanese intellectuals' relationships to modernity in three majors arenas of art (art and aesthetics, theater, and literature) beginning in the 1850s to the 1970s. It discusses how inevitable wave of modernity was responded to, discussed, assimilated, changed by some of the most notable practitioners of art and intellectuals in Japan during this period.

PortraitHiroshi Nara is professor of Japanese language and Japanese linguistics at the University of Pittsburgh.
PressestimmenInexorable Modernity has the clear virtue of addressing modern Japanese aesthetics, painting, and theater in a single volume, one of very few recent works to do so. Journal Of Japanese Studies By drawing together essays on art and aesthetics, theatre, film, and literature, this volume provides a broad, nuanced view of the landscape of modernity in Japan. It is a most interesting and useful resource for teaching-a fine tribute to an outstanding scholar and teacher whose erudition and creativity have afforded pleasure and insight to so many readers over the years. -- Elaine Gerbert, associate professor of modern Japanese literature, University of Kansas

Why does placement of an implant over the muscle have an increased risk of capsular contraction? (Photo)
I am looking to have a natural, modest Breast, I want my breasts to behave like breasts, I also want to carry on with my HIIT workouts. I have mild asymmetry so my PS will use sizers to match the breasts. My left breast will have 270cc textured silicone. He will decide on the day whether to go over or under. I think the overs offer a lot of benefits but I keep eating about increased risk of cc, why?
Doctor Answers 2
Why does placement of an implant over the muscle have an increased risk of capsular contraction?
Data about increased capsular contracture higher in subglandular augmentation are mostly older data before the new cohesive gel implants. The new implants along with the no touch technique using triple antibiotic solution have greatly reduced capsular contracture rates. The key is that you need adequate breast tissue to cover the implant. A pinch test of the gland can be done and if you have more than 2 cm of gland thickness -especially on the left smaller breast-then you can have a sub glandular implant. Please read below about the no touch technique:
Web reference: http://www.bostonplasticsurgeryspecialists.com/better-breast-implant-results-with-the-keller-funnel/
Breast augmentation
Anatomical implants with 5th generation cohesive gel above the muscle may be a good option for you and there is no evidence to suggest that these implants have an increased chance of capsular contracture. You need to consult with a PS who can examine you and run through the pros and cons with you. Implants above the muscle thin the breast and skin and implants under thin the muscle with time.

Beth Jones should be promoted for simply being right among a legion of incompetents.
A newly-released government email indicates that within hours of the Sept. 11, 2012 attacks on Americans in Benghazi, Libya; the State Department had already concluded with certainty that the Islamic militia terrorist group Ansar al Sharia was to blame.
The private, internal communication directly contradicts the message that President Obama, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Susan Rice and White House press secretary Jay Carney repeated publicly over the course of the next several weeks. They often maintained that an anti-Islamic YouTube video inspired a spontaneous
demonstration that escalated into violence.
The email is entitled "Libya update from Beth Jones. " Jones was then-Assistant Secretary of State to Hillary Clinton. According to the email, Jones spoke to Libya's Ambassador at 9:45am on Sept. 12, 2012 following the attacks.
"When [the Libyan Ambassador] said his government suspected that former Qaddafi regime elements carried out the attacks, I told him the group that conducted the attacks—Ansar Al Sharia—is affiliated with Islamic extremists," Jones reports in the email.
There is no uncertainty assigned to the assessment, which does not mention a video or a protest. The State Department provided the email to Congress in Aug. of 2013 under special conditions that it not be publicly released at that time. Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) sought and received permission to release it Thursday. //

Uhoh! Summer camp letters are starting to arrive….ewe!
It's about that time of year when kids are off to summer camp and their letters to you start to roll in. In the case of one mom, who sends her son off for the first time, the responses that she received for her letters are...interesting. Let's just say her son mentions push pops, a horse, and his toothbrush among other things.
This boy's letter is hilarious!

Synopsis for "Spidey Strikes Back!"Edit
The Daily Bugle continues its editorials on Spider-Man being washed up, but Spider-Man comes out of nowhere and rounds up bank robbers. As J Jonah Jameson learns the news, he takes his frustration outside where Human Torch is distracted and gets tied up by the Enforcers and smothered out by the Sandman. As Peter goes home from another day at school, he sees Fancy Dan walking down the street. Suspecting something sinister might be afoot, Spider-Man follows him and fights them at their hideout, but as the police show up, The Enforcers flee. Peter then turns up at the Daily Bugle and Betty Brant introduces him to another reporter, Ned Leeds and gives his approval of her seeing him much to her surprise. Meanwhile, at another hideout, we see Human Torch trapped in a glass jar with just enough air to breathe but not enough air to turn his flame on and escape. Sandman plans to use Human Torch as bait to lure Spider-Man in his trap and Spider-Man learns this from a stool pigeon named Louie. As Spider-Man descends he sees The Human Torch and plays ball with Sandman and the Enforcers and finally rolls into the glass jar to set Human Torch free. The Enforcers are rounded up, but Human Torch and Spider-Man get tangled in Spidey's webbing as Sandman runs away but gets caught shortly after by two policemen. The issue ends with a mysterious figure who's following Peter Parker home from school and reporting to the surveillance a mysterious figure in a green robe whose face cannot be seen.

Ripoff Report

PC Support Helpline, Matthew Wilson Company did not respond to e-mail or phone calls. When I asked for help, they were not there as promised. I paid $219.99 for their services in Nov of 2013. Internet
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
Back in November 2013 (11/5/13), I received a phone call from someone describing thenselves as PC Support. They seemed to know alot about my computer and issues I was having.
After a lengthy discussion, I signed up and paid them $219.99 for a 2 year agreement to service my computer if I had issues. They added a program called Windows Defender.
They said I would have no issues. When I did, call or e-mail them and they would fix them. Well it turns out the no one has made any contact with me from PC Support Helpline at all. The windows defender program is useless, and I use other protection programs.
I have a reciept and thank you e-mail from them, but they have never called me back when I asked for the quarterly update and maintenance due in January 2014.

Use a qualified painter for painting our homes
We are often dissatisfied with what we already have. Sometimes we feel there is something missing in our life if anything less is not equipped. We must check all ours to find the something missing. We can start in from our home. Maybe we don't have a good place for sleep or it was not big enough for us. If we compare our home with another home, we know it's bigger than others but we still not satisfied with it. Maybe our home not so interesting because the paint is bad. We have to replace it with a new and better.
We can search any painter for painting our home but we don't have to quick for find them. We must find a qualified painter and their works with nicely. Before we look at them on the internet, we can ask someone that have an experience about using the qualified and professional painter. You can ask someone who knows painting companies in Portland. Maybe we will find many painters that were often painted but we don't know if there are a professional or not. We can determine whether they are professional or not if they are already licensed.
Usually, their license to prove that they are not an amateur painter because an amateur is not working properly and we must be careful with their work. If we have found a licensed painter, we could ask for their help to change the performance of our home. We can ask them for painting our home with the right paint. We can also consult with them about the type of paint that is suitable for our homes. Make sure that you have a better home than before because if you don't have it, you will always feel not satisfied with what you have.

My advice to you is to go take a class from a certified instructor before you do anything; they will step you through the process of becoming familiar.
FYI, the XD pistol has two very distinct ways to alert you off the condition of the pistol; First, on top of the slide there is a loaded chamber indicator; on the back of the slide there is a small pin which protrudes to tell you that the striker/firing pin mechanism is ready to fire when the trigger is pulled.
And the difference in price between a used and new XD cannot be that significant, I would buy new, especially if you are as inexperienced as you say you are. then, before I loaded, fired or did any serious handling, I would take that class I mentioned earlier.
then practice a lot before I carried it.....

No "High Tea" stuff with me. Stinks and smacks of snobbery
of the ruling "Raj and Colonial Office of the White Hall/Westminister"
elite of QE Victorian days!
Still If pushed I'd take the High Tea rather than MacDonalds !!!!
I didn't know that cocktails went with this High Tea business.
"Goodness Gracious Me" - what would Her Majesty think????
I think off with the head of this rogue and disrespectful chef at
the Sydney Shangri-la.
Colin of Cordobes and of the Sunshine Coast "push"
PS: Day 6 of August - all going well - cloudless, windless and sunny
with just unfortunately a tinge of warmth!
25 days to go and counting!
We have a certain fondness for the rogues - more cocktails I say! I am all too easily swooned also with a good scone - I'm little bit of a scone fuss - so if they're done right, I'm smitten.
Mmm... now you have me thinking of the Sunshine Coast... will investigate for the next return home.
Hazy day over here. Please blow some of those blue skies our way.
Oh you are naughty - ha ha.
Cocktails with scones, cream and cherry jam - must try it one day.
Very fattening I think. Will definitely need that Andalusian steed
for galloping off exercises - bad back will have to take second place!!!!
Surely not haze from that Bali volcano????
It certainly is disrupting the tourist trade for the island with all
these cancels flights. Terrible situation for the Balinese.
Colin of Cordobes.
Now where did I put my scones etc. I have my beer.
I suppose beer will be OK????
Ooooooo....scones! I love em' English cream teas! Pile on the clotted cream and fruit jam!ReplyDelete
I'm with you on the scones - the base of any good afternoon tea.Delete
You are speaking my language!!! I love tea, and high tea, especially, and all the goodies that go with it! I absolutely love this post! (but, then again, I love all your posts). :)ReplyDelete
You are a sweetheart (and sweet tooth I see too) Linda. I especially like the variety - a little sweet, a little savoury and a good scone.Delete
Berry Me looks amazing...ReplyDelete
Love the savoury items in a good high tea as well!ReplyDelete
that's a very dramatic and striking first photo, with the high tea set juxtaposed against that amazing view! :)ReplyDelete

Poetry Compared with the Victorian period, the 20th century has witnessed a great achievement in English poetry. 2. Aestheticism and Decadence 3. Fiction 4. Drama Thomas Hardy (1840-1928) Thomas Hardy (1840-1928) ► ► ► English poet and novelist, famous for his depictions of the imaginary county "Wessex" . Hardy's work reflected his stoical pessimism and sense of tragedy in human life. At the age of 22 Hardy moved to London and started to write poems, which idealized the rural life. In 1867 Hardy left London for the family home in Dorset, and resumed work briefly with Hicks in Dorchester. Emma Hardy died in 1912 and in 1914 Hardy married his secretary, Florence Emily Dugdale. Hardy died in Dorchester, Dorset, on January 11, 1928. His ashes were cremated in Dorchester and buried with impressive ceremonies in the Poet's Corner in Westminster Abbey.

Romances and fantasies b. novels of ingenuity c. novels of characters and environment ► pessimistic philosophy According to his pessimistic philosophy, mankind is subjected to the rule of some hostile mysterious fate, which brings misfortune into human life. ► strong elements of naturalism ► symbolism Naturalism: A post-Darwinian movement of the late 19th century that tried to apply the "laws" of scientific determinism to fiction. The naturalist went beyond the realist's insistence on the objective presentation of the details of everyday life to insist that the materials of literature should be arranged to reflect a deterministic universe in which a person is a biological creature controlled by environment and heredity. Major writers include Hardy and Gissing in England; Crane, Dreiser in America. Tess of the d'Urbervilles Rising Action ► Tess's family's discovery that they are ancient English aristocracy, giving them all fantasies of a higher station in life; Tess's accidental killing of the family horse, which drives her to seek help from the d'Urbervilles, where she is seduced and dishonored. Tess of the d'Urbervilles Climax ► Tess's new husband discovers her earlier seduction by Alec and decides to leave her, going off to Brazil and not answering her letters, and bringing Tess to despair.

Summary: Chapter XIV ► The following August, Tess decides the time has come to stop pitying herself, and she helps her village with the harvest. Her baby boy, conceived with Alec, falls ill, and Tess becomes worried that he will die without a proper christening. She decides to christen him herself and names him Sorrow. When he dies the following morning, Tess asks the parson if her christening was sufficient to earn her baby a Christian burial. Moved, the parson replies that though he cannot bury the child himself, Tess may do so. That night Tess lays Sorrow to rest in a corner of the churchyard, and makes a little cross for his grave. Summary: Chapter XXXV ► Angel is distraught by Tess's confession. He begs her to deny it, but she cannot. He flees the house, and Tess follows after him. For hours, they walk the grounds of the mansion. Tess tells her husband that she will do anything he asks and even offers to drown herself. Angel orders her to go back to the house. When he returns, Tess is asleep. After an uncomfortable moment looking at the d'Urberville ladies' portraits, Angel goes to sleep in a different room.

A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man b. Dubliners c. Ulysses d. Finnegans Wake Two Periods ► His first two books deal with the life of Ireland that he rejected when he went to live in exile. ► His last two books represent his second period. In them, Joyce tried to understand and explain the development of an artist and the workings of the human mind. Dubliners may be arranged into four categories as follows: 1. 2. 3. 4. Stories of childhood stories of adolescence stories of mature life stories of public life. His Point of View ► He believed that there are 3 stages of literature: ► 1. lyrical form (personal, emotional) ► 2. narrative (no longer purely personal) ► 3. dramatic (the highest, perfect stage) ► significance of his works a. He changed the old style of fictions and created a strange mode of art to show the chaos and crisis of consciousness of that period. b. From him, stream of consciousness came to the highest point as a genre of modern literature. c. In Finnegans Wake, this pursue of newness overrode the normalness and showed a tendency of vanity.
