A gathering of specialists at Harvard University did a study finding that Peppa Pig is one of te fundamental driver of a mental imbalance among youngsters.
This vivified motion picture has made awesome progress. There are numerous toys, shirts, and numerous different things with this character. In any case, the question still remains. Is this toon character useful for kids? The answer is NO.
As indicated by specialists, there is a proof that demonstrates an expanded inadversarial, scornful, addressing, confrontating, and rude conduct in youngsters which comes about because of watching toons, for example, Peppa Pig. Peppa is out and out discourteous and her folks permit her escape with murder. There is a scene where Peppa and her sibling George declined to clean their room, however then their folks made it into an amusement. When they completed, the whelps destroyed the room once more, snickering presumptuously.
These are the one of a kind components Peppa has:
Experiences the disorder of prevalence;
Improper conduct;
Forces thoughts paying little heed to others' sentiments;
Focused (it doesn't how to lose);
There are guardians who griped that their kids duplicate the conduct of Peppa and her sibling George, and some of them even banned the toon from being viewed in their homes.
In this manner, be exceptionally watchful, all you guardians out there. There is nothing uncommon about Peppa Pig. Similar applies to the various projects.

Elton John has launched a blistering attack on the mayor of Venice over the city's withdrawal of books depicting same-sex families from the city's nurseries and primary schools.
The British star, who has two sons with partner David Furnish, used his Instagram page to denounce newly-elected Venice mayor Luigi Brugnaro's move.
"Beautiful Venice is indeed sinking, but not as fast as the boorishly bigoted Brugnaro," John, 68, wrote in an attack widely highlighted by Italy's media on Tuesday.

Search is on for the whereabouts of the Bonhomme RichardBreaking News
Everyone's heard of the battle of Flamborough Head, where The Bonhomme Richard, captained by John Paul Jones, slugged it out by moonlight with the British frigate, Serapis. But does anyone remember what happened to the Richard? A few ARRT navy buffs will recall that it sank the next day -- but exactly where? That's what an expedition launched from the Avery Point campus of the University of Connecticut is trying to find out. The day before he left for England, the organizer of the hunt, Captain John "Jack" Ringelberg, USN Ret, pondered a map on his computer. Off Flamborough Head, the North Sea is 200 feet deep. Over the map was a grid of overlapping rectangles plotted from first hand reports and estimates of where the Richard might have drifted before she sank. "We're looking at 50 square miles," Captain Ringelberg said. "My hope is to end up with one to three high probability targets." It won't be easy. The search can only be conducted during July and August. At any other time of the year "you're going to get beaten to death," he said. The North Sea is rough water. The hope is to locate Richard using magnetometers that can detect her metal cannon. There's also competition. Among others, writer Clive Cussler, whose novels feature sunken ships, has been looking for Jones's ship for years. In his Navy days, Captain Ringelberg headed an experimental diving team. If he finds any signals, he plans to go down for a look next summer. "It would be a greater discovery than The Titanic," he says.

Immortality has an EndMature
"Now you understand?"
"Yes" Adder nodded, his eyes wincing every so often as memories flashed past his eyes.
"Good". Demrin turned and left the vampire alone. Adder collapsed back on his bed as he watched over and over how he tortured Calla. Tying her down and forcing himself upon her, trying to show that...what was he trying to prove to her...he couldn't remember. All those things he had done to such a beautiful creature... stabbing her biting her, returning to kill Demrin, Ana, and Jester. A heavy frown covered his lips as he lay there staring at his hands, almost seeing her blood pouring past his lips and covering his hands.
"Calla...why did I hurt you? What would drive me to such madness?" The vampire began to pace his room, searching and hunting for the idea in his brain. Each time he tried to go near memories of Calla's torture, a burning sensation tore through his mind and over his skin. Adder collapsed to the floor, it was like someone didn't want him going near his own memories. Perhaps it was the warlocks doing, he didn't know but he felt as though he should go and apologize to her. They had already met...but it seems that they had known each other before their second meeting.Why hadn't she said that they knew each other before? Did she hate him for the torture or was she scared that he would do it again?
Moving from his bed, Adder opened the door and moved out of his room. The house itself seemed silent as though watching him, judging him and every step her took. While moving through the house, Adder discovered Jester and instantly froze. Memories of him attacking the shapeshifter in his madness had caused Jester obvious pain. Poking a fang on his lip, Adder carefully approached the man, he didn't want to spook him if he made some hasty movements.
"Jester..." Adder said quietly, his hands resting in his pockets to hide his trepidation. The shapeshifter looked a bit gaunt and pale but he turned and slightly frowned.
"Yes Adder, what is it?" He seemed tired, like all the hope and brightness had deflated out of him.
"I wanted to apologize. I know that it probably means nothing to you, but I wanted to say that I was sorry for everything that I did to you." Adder looked away so that he didn't have to feel Jesters gaze piercing gaze. "I don't know if I am the cause of your...pain right now but I only hope that my words are some consolation."
Adder looked up for a split second, seeing a mixture of shock and confusion in the other's eyes. It seemed apologizing was out of character for him but the vampire felt as though he couldn't rid himself of the guilt in his stomach. Demrin showing him all of his madness had created the guilt and it acted like a snake in his stomach uncoiling and writhing around.
Jester nodded and crossed his arms, as if thinking this was just another trick until he noticed the sincerity and pain that covered Adder's features. The vampire said a quick good bye then hurried off towards where he could smell Calla's scent coming from. Her scent was mixed with a few others, the warlocks, and...Adder stopped before the door. His ears picked up the noises and his nose took in the smell, Adder backed away a bit. Calla and Demrin were lovers locked in passion and it seemed that she cared little for the vampire that tortured her. Maybe it was pity allowed him a place by her side on the piano, she wasn't interested in making friends...just getting even, getting revenge.
Adder backed away and walked back into the house, apparently his apology to her wouldn't matter. Why did he feel like she was betraying him? Why did it hurt to see her with Demrin? They were lovers and he had no right to intervene between them...after all he had tortured her.
"There is no hope for one of my kind...." he murmured. That's when he decided...it was time to invoke the ancient ritual of the Sonne. That meant it was time to go and find a meal, one last taste of humanity before the ritual and its trials. Adder walked out of the house, his eyes lingering on the piano before he moved to the city. Many walked the streets, couples clinging to each others arms and giggling happily.
Why did he envy them so? What was the stabbing pain that he felt in his chest? Adder growled loudly, he hated all the questions that rumbled through his head and clawed at his brain. They were irritating and annoying to say the least, and painful for reasons he had no inkling to.
Walking along the streets, the vampire noticed a beautiful young girl all by herself. She wore a tight mini skirt, a nice plaid jacket, and spiked high heels. Her long blonde hair ran in rivulets of gold around her shoulders and framed a lovely face. Adder moved beside her and tapped her shoulder, the girl paused and met him with brilliant blue eyes.
"Can I help you?" She asked in a thick accent. Adder smiled weakly, though his expressions were all fake.
"Yes ma'am...I was hoping that you'd help me find my friend, she's lost and I'm kinda new to this city." he asked looking scared and hopeless. His eyes were wide and his hands clasped before his chest as if to beg for her help. The woman smiled kindly and nodded, following Adder back into the nearest alleyway. The woman kept calling for the non-existent friend that Adder had lied about, he licked his lips and let a light snarl pass his lips. The woman froze and looked around, her knees shaking.
"He..hello?" she called out suddenly alone with the vampire. Adder grinned softly, after all it was a bittersweet moment in his eyes. Suddenly appearing behind the woman, Adder locked his hands around her arms and canted her neck to allow him greater access to the vein in her neck.
"Don't worry dear, it will all be over soon." he murmured and slid his fangs into her neck, popping the vein and spilling red gems into his mouth. He drank deeply, his eyes fluttering happily and a soft moan past his lips. He had forgotten the taste of a slowly dying person in his grasp, their blood pooling in his mouth and running thick down his throat. The woman struggled and sobbed as he eyes grew glassy and her heart stopped thrumming.
With the girl dead and his hunger sated, Adder left the body in the alley and returned back to the house. The sun was nearing the horizon and it seemed that time was of the essence. It was all leading him the the building end that Adder never thought that he would see. After all, death is not something that bothers an immortal. Each step made the vampire increasingly at peace, like he was going to something that he had always been meant for.
Adder walked into the house and moved to the piano, a lovely melody flowing through him and over the keys...he didn't know that the song had once been played before he left Calla but to him it was familiar and that was a comfort. No one disturbed him as he played his own little eulogy, like his last little words that would echo through the halls.
"It's all so damned sad," he chuckled to himself as the song ended and he moved to his room. The windows curtains were always closed so to keep the sunlight out but Adder knew that they would no longer shroud such room in darkness. A pen found it's way into the vampires hand as he wrote Calla a letter. It really didn't do the justice Adder wanted but he knew that it would do. She was probably asleep with Demrin now, re-living the nightmares that he had enacted on her for what he knew was no reason at all. In a brilliantly beautiful old world script the note read...
It seems that a piece of my memory was kept from me by Demrin...he showed me this night, how I tortured you. How I kept you tied down like and animal to act away my fantasies with you for some reason that I don't know. It appears that I was driven into the darkness, deep into a madness that I have never seen in another person, vampire, or other creature. I wanted to apologize to you, but Demrin and you were together and I though it highly rude to interrupt. So here is my apology for all the pain I put you through, stealing you away to that room and making you mine for my cruel reasons. Demrin, I want to apologize to you as well for taking your lover from you. It was awful of me to deny you such a lover as it seems you two are deeply connected. To Jester and Ana, I fear there is nothing I can say to either of you to fix the pain I've put you through...I'm sorry.
Your eternal Vampire,
Cyrus "Adder" Kyote
With that Adder placed the note on his night stands and opened the curtains wide, the sun was staring to make the fringes of the horizon glow with warmth. Adder moved and sat on the bed, murmuring an old German tune that he had sang the night he was turned. His eyes shut and a peaceful expression covered his features...he had been a burden on all of the people in his home, from what he could remember. He sighed and waited for the sun to crest the horizon, all they would find of him was a pile of ash sitting on his bed...there were worse ways to die.

remote desktop like GPS?
I did a little search and the threads about remote desktop are quite old and not relevant anyway. So I decided to start a new thread. I am running on windows 7 home basic and would like to have a remote desktop installed. I am looking for a software or hardware that connects my laptop desktop from and to other computers. But more importantly, I am looking for GPS for my laptop, that is, as long as my computer is on and it is connected to the internet, I can know its location through other computers which I can program it/them to. If it can work without connection to the internet and/or doesn't require the computer has to be power on at the moment, that would be even better but I don't think that's possible without some serious device attached to it with battery on.

Guy Martin confirms he wont be racing at this years TT
Martin takes to Facebook to tell followers his possible plans for the future
GUY Martin has just used Facebook to confirm that he won't be taking part in this year's TT, and that he doesn't know what his future holds when it comes to road racing.
Instead racing at the Isle of Man this year, Martin will be taking part in the 2745-mile Tour Divide bicycle race in America. TAS Racing confirmed the news in a press release this morning.
We had an idea this was coming because Martin has already used his autobiography When You Dead, You Dead to tell fans that he would be cutting back on his road racing activities this year, and that he wanted to enter the Tour Divide.
Martin hasn't said that he's walking away from motorbikes altogether, saying: 'I'm not done with motorbikes. I'm attempting the Wall of Death record in the spring and having a go at the land speed record in the summer and if I do race on the roads it will be with TAS.'
His post on Facebook said:
'I fancy a change of scenery. I've been racing the TT for 11 years. All I've really done since I was 18, except the trucks, is race motorbikes and my brain needs something else. Every year's the same: testing, racing, then start again. It brought it home to me when I was lying in hospital after the Ulster Grand Prix crash. I've been on about the Tour Divide, the toughest pushbike race in the world, for three years and I thought I'll blink and next thing I'll be 45, so I'm going to do it this year. I like breaking myself mentally and the Tour Divide will be tough, but it's same time at TT, so that's forced me to make a choice.
'After the Tour Divide I might never want to see a pushbike again - or never want to go road racing again, I don't know. But I do know Bruce Anstey and John McGuinness are still racing the TT, and they've got a few years on me, so maybe I'll come back next year. Or maybe I'll find something else interesting to do. I've got more interests than just motorbikes and I just think let's have 'em.'
This morning's announcement follows the news that last week Guy Martin will race in the 2016 British Rallycross Championship.

We employ novel ultrafast laser terahertz techniques to generate high power picosecond pulses for reflection imaging applications. In one case, large area (2 cm x 2 cm) biased GaAs photoconductive switch produces THz pulses with sufficient bandwidth (0.3 to 2 THz) for far-field reflection hyperspectral imaging. High power pulses are also created using Lithium Niobate difference frequency generation with group velocity compensation. Reflected pulses are collected by a large area reflection telescope and the THz image is relayed onto a (1x1) cm2 ZnTe electro-optic image up-convering crystal. Weak 800 nm gating pulses from the Ti:Sapphire amplifier system (see Terahertz Apparatus/Facilities page) are used to extract the image imposed on the detection crystal and relayed onto a cooled CCD detector or room temperature lock-in detection microbolometer array for imaging.
In parallel to our THz spectroscopy efforts, we are also developing novel methods for real-time pulsed THz imaging of far-field objects and to perform hyperspectral imaging of inhomogeneous materials, threat agents and other species relevant to Homeland Security needs. This wavelength range is particularly attractive because THz radiation readily transmits through most plastics, cloth, papers and other non-metallic, low-density materials. Detailed analysis of high power source and THz pulse propagation is required as well as specialized collection optics to optimize image resolution. Spectral characterization of materials in an image scene at several meter reflection distances is being explored.
In earlier imaging experiments (circa 2003-2008), it was found that near-field imaging (<1 meter) of reflective objects retained expected resolution at THz frequencies. However, objects placed at ca. 3 meters from the generator produced distorted images, probably arising from pulse interference or depolarization effects. To explore these possibilities, we directly measured and modeled GHz through THz BRDF for a variety of concealment materials. Since the BRDF has not previously been measured in this wavelength region, our new results were compared to conventional BRDF models to test their applicability and accuracy for predicting image quality for hyperspectral and related applications.
These investigations use a state-of-the-art, kHz repetition-rate amplified 45 femtosecond pulsed laser for broadband (0.2-2.5) THz GaAs antenna generation and detection using a ZnTe electro-optic crystals. See the Terahertz Apparatus/Facilities page.

Next Tuesday, 17 March – St Patrick's Day, those already reaching for their green comedy wigs won't need telling – sees another The Simpsons first. "In the Name of the Grandfather" witnesses America's foremost cartoon family heading for Ireland, where Grampa and Homer buy a pub. Irish Star Trek actor Colm Meaney is the guest star. It's not the fact that this is the Simpsons' first visit to the Emerald Isle that is making history so much as that, after 434 episodes, this is the first time it has been broadcast in Europe before it has gone out in the US. "In the Name of the Grandfather" will be screened on Sky1 on Tuesday, five days before it's shown in the States.
But isn't this just the sort of gimmick on which, according to critics, Fox's cash-cow cartoon has become over-reliant in recent years? The Simpsons has been under sporadic enemy fire since at least the beginning of the century – in fact since not long after it was hubristically declared by a 1999 edition of Time magazine as being "the greatest television show ever". "Euthanise (sic) this once-great show before quality slips any further," was a typical cry from a long-term fan as far back as 2000. "There's still greatness there, and you get to see a home run now and then, but mostly it's a halo of reflected glory," wrote the New York Times journalist Chris Suellentrop in an 2003 article for the online magazine Slate, under the headline "The Simpsons: Who Turned America's Best TV Show into a Cartoon?".
And these days, despite having almost single-handedly invented the animated sitcom genre (Hanna-Barbera's Wait Till Your Father Gets Home was doing something similar back in the Nixon-era) the show no longer has the field to itself. Not only does it have strong opposition, that opposition is about to grow with the imminent premieres of The Goode Family, The Cleveland Show and Sit Down, Shut Up. But more of them later.
Currently three of the main contenders for The Simpsons' slipping crown are the products of the same network – Rupert Murdoch's Fox Broadcasting Channel – and transmit immediately after The Simpsons on a Sunday night: King of the Hill, Family Guy and American Dad, comprising the so-called Animation Domination line-up. Actually make that two, because King of the Hill – a cartoon about a redneck Texan family from Beavis and Butt-head creator Mike Judge – has recently been axed. That leaves the superficially similar Family Guy and American Dad.
Seth MacFarlane's Family Guy has almost had as many lives as the proverbial cat. Centring around a dysfunctional family (you can see why it was considered a Simpsons rip-off) from the fictional town of Quahog, Rhode Island, Fox cancelled Family Guy twice – first in 2000 and then in 2002 – but strong DVD sales convinced the network to resume making it in 2005. MacFarlane meanwhile, given a carte-blanche by a penitent Fox, came up with his satire on the George W Bush-era mindset, American Dad – about yet another dysfunctional family, this one headed up by a CIA agent, Stan Smith.
"Family Guy and American Dad, while they are amusing and ambitious, they are essentially a string of disconnected punch-lines in search of genuine characters and a connective storyline," reckons Hollywood Reporter's Ray Richmond. I don't entirely agree with that since both Family Guy and American Dad can be darker, ruder, nastier, sharper and often funnier than latter-day episodes of The Simpsons. But I would go some way to agreeing with Richmond when he says: "The only show that comes close to the qualitative level achieved by The Simpsons is South Park."
Matt Stone and Trey Parker's fearless animated sitcom, whose 13th series premieres in the UK tonight on Paramount 1, is (as Rolling Stone magazine put it while celebrating the show's tenth anniversary in 2007) "still sick, still wrong". And its crude, cut-up animation style is by far the most radical of its contemporaries.
But South Park is now way older than its protagonists, the perpetual fourth-graders Stan, Kyle, Kenny and Cartman. What is in the animation pipeline, and will any of it finally topple the 20-year dominance of The Simpsons?
Fox's Sit Down, Shut Up, which begins airing in the US next month, sounds like it has the most promise. Based on a short-lived live-action sitcom from Australia, the animated US version revolves around the staff members of a (you guessed it) dysfunctional high school. "It's extremely character based and has different rhythms than other animated shows like The Simpsons or King of the Hill," says the co-producer Bill Oakley, a veteran from the glory days of The Simpsons.
Sit Down, Shut Up is the brainchild of Mitch Hurwitz, the creator of Arrested Development – the award-festooned live-action sitcom about another dysfunctional family, the Bluths. What is it with American television and dysfunctional families? Or rather, as President George Bush Sr once put it, why can't the US be closer to the Waltons than the Simpsons? But then Americans were too busy listening to Bart, not Bush.
Meanwhile Judge has come up with the wicked-sounding The Goode Family (for ABC this time, and not Fox), about an obsessively green family. The paterfamilias Gerald Goode is "from a long line of over-educated academic liberals", says Judge, who will also be voicing him. Could The Goode Family be to Obama's US what American Dad was to George W Bush's? American Dad neatly surfed the war on terror zeitgeist and lampooned the excesses of homeland security. With liberals now seemingly in the ascendancy, Judge has decided to get stuck into some ecological sacred cows.
And what of the state of racial politics in Obama's America? With a black man in the White House, is all right and dandy in the nation that gave us the Ku Klux Klan? If that seems unlikely then the fault lines are sure to be wittily explored by Seth MacFarlane's Family Guy spin-off, The Cleveland Show, which follows Peter Griffin's black friend Cleveland Brown as he relocates to redneck Virginia. Not that we Brits are to be spared our blushes, as among Cleveland's new neighbours are to be an English family (voiced by MacFarlane himself). Oh, and some talking bears. Expect them to get the best lines.
Meanwhile, just in case we get too carried away, two new seasons of The Simpsons have been announced, taking Matt Groening's creation to within spitting distance of its 500th episode. Will it ever end? "There are no plans to pull the plug for the simple reason that the show remains a massive cash cow in its rerun syndication afterlife," says Richmond. "The show repeats more effectively than possibly any show in history, and it's easy to see why. The characters never age, change little, and learn practically nothing from their pasts. They remain stuck in time."
Sit Down, Shut Up
The show, starting next month, revolves around the lives of seven staff members at a dysfunctional high school in a fictional North-eastern US fishing town. Developed by the writers behind 'Arrested Development', the action centres on faculty members (voiced by Jason Bateman and Henry "The Fonz" Winkler, among others) as their egos and personal agendas trump the students' needs. The cartoon characters will have a live-action backdrop.
The Goode Family
Fox having axed his 'King of the Hill', it is perhaps understandable that Mike Judge decamped to ABC with his new show about an ecologically obsessed family. Gerald Goode is an administrator at a community college, and his wife Helen is a local activist. They have an adopted son, Ubuntu, who's from Africa, while their biological daughter is called Bliss. The family dog is (forcibly) a vegan. The show is set to premiere later this month.
The Cleveland Show
Seth MacFarlane's 'Family Guy' spin-off follows Peter Griffin's black chum Cleveland Brown as he relocates to Virginia and moves in with his college sweetheart. MacFarlane has found a way to balance the cast's racial make-up, as Mike Henry, who's voiced the Afro-American Cleveland since 'Family Guy' started in 1999, is white; now, the black actor Kevin Richardson will voice Lester, a white "redneck" neighbour. 'The Cleveland Show' begins in the autumn.

9 Feature Stories We're Reading This Week: Serpent Handlers And A Rivalry Remembered
This week for BuzzReads, Gemma de Choisy profiles a rural pastor who's fighting the law to continue handling deadly snakes. Read that and these other great stories from BuzzFeed and the rest of the web.
Pastor Andrew Hamblin Would Rather Die Or Go To Jail Than Give Up Handling Snakes
As part of a traditional Appalachian sect, the 22-year-old church leader illegally handled venomous snakes — and starred on the reality TV show Snake Salvation — until wildlife authorities seized them all. Risking his life and his livelihood, he's taking a stand in the name of Jesus, and, he argues, in the name of religious freedom.

How much to ask for a used 2piece hardtop?
1 Attachment(s)
I have a beautiful 2 piece Keystone Restyling hardtop with the slider upper doors (new $3,000) that I am thinking of selling. It has the upgraded roof rack to put the front piece on when you wan it off and it looks great! I would say its in 98% perfect condition. How much do I ask for it used here or Craigslist? I included a pic for reference thanks!
IMO....... store it for 3 or 4 months and ask $2k.... which will leave room to bargain. Right now I think you would be lucky to get $1k...but that is just my opinion. I have thought about getting a hard top for my TJ since I bought it in '04 ...and it is an '04..but maybe I am just too cheap....If I find one cheap I would buy it but not this time of year.
That sounds like good advise!
It is good advise. I'm trying to sell my hardtop for my 2010 and have only had one guy call about it. It's been posted for more than a month on CL.

These are a few of my favorite things
... pretty exilerating. Thank goodness for good seat belts and hand straps! We had the two back seats, and there were two young women from China in the two front seats. Although they could see out the windshield, the middle front seat beside the pilot wouldn't have been as good, as she wouldn't have had the full doors-off experience of looking right out below you, and feeling the flap-your-cheek-skin pressure of the air beating around you. Brie, that middle front seat ...
In Search of Volcanic Activity
... about it. After at least 4 or 7 years of being a ranger there, he is still excited by seeing that eruption. He said it isn't just the smoke or steam coming from it but huge chunks of the cooled lava on the sides fall into the hot lava and create erupting fountains. That would be something to see if it happened, but we weren't there long enough because it was too cold for us and we hadn't brought warmer clothes.
We had an ...
Day 29 - Steam and Wine Tastings
... odd walking through natural steam vents; and they were warm! While there was a roadblock, we headed to the Volcano winery, situated near our cottage. It turned out they did wine tastings for $5 - Dev was a very good sport while I tried 7 different types of wine, and possibly got a little bit drunk! Dev tried a little bit here and there too ;-) After the road block went away, we headed up to the Jagger museum, where we had been the night before. Last night you could see the ...
Zoo, Lili'uokalani park, and Scenic Drive
... Park to view the King Kamehameha statue. It's all decked out in gold and bronze. Then we drove a few miles up the Hamakua coast, to take a 4 mile Scenic Drive, with stops to view some waterfalls and the ocean. We thought about visiting the garden that is on the drive, but it started to get rainy, and we needed to get Pam back to pick up her car from the repair ...
Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden

We even spent a little bit in the gift shop at the top. They had some cool hand-crafted tiles and would look fantastic in a kitchen. We ended up getting an ornament for the Christmas tree, because hey, what says holidays more than a bird of ...

Security Slice: Are Retailers Cybercrime Victims or Cybersecurity Laggards?
California has a new state assembly bill that would require retailers to notify customers in the wake of a data breach. Retailers and business groups opposed the law and say it cannot keep up with constantly evolving technology, and successfully lobbied to remove a clause that would hold retailers responsible for data breaches.
How should retailers respond to data breaches in the future?
Listen to episode 152 of our security slice podcast and hear Ken Westin, Dwayne Melancon, Tim Erlin, Craig Young, Lamar Bailey and Tyler Reguly discuss why this bill could be a more about political posturing than protecting consumers, the line between retail cybercrime victims and criminal negligence and why it's so difficult to tell the different.

Then to Al's grocery which beat the heck out of Walmart. Since we walked we will shop in the morning and fill up with gas too. Back to the park, which is right next to the highway as most parks are.

They were probably thinking the same thing as they glanced periodically over at us. We made up a whole story about them and what they do and just cracked ourselves up making it crazier and crazier. The bursts of laughter coming from the trolls huddled in the back must have added to their enjoyment of the evening.

Daniel Snyder holds firm on Redskins nickname in open letter to fans
In an open letter to the Redskins fan base, owner Daniel Snyder laid out the reasons the team will not be changing its name.
With the president of the United States weighing in on the topic of the Redskins nickname, saying that perhaps a team name change is in order, and with Washington tight end Fred Davis declaring that he could see how the Redskins name could be offensive, it's now time to hear from owner Daniel Snyder.
He's written a long open letter to his fans, and (surprise!) it sounds like he's not interested in changing anything.
"I've listened carefully to the commentary and perspectives on all sides, and I respect the feelings of those who are offended by the team name," Snyder wrote, via the Washington Post. "But I hope such individuals also try to respect what the name means, not only for all of us in the extended Washington Redskins family, but among Native Americans too."
Snyder goes on to defend his decision with some helpful bullet points. Thus, he cited the following:
- A poll that talked to nearly 1,000 Native Americans that concluded that 90 percent of them did not find the Redskins name to be offensive.
- In an AP poll earlier this year, 79 percent of respondents said they didn't have a problem with the name and that only 11 percent believed that it should be changed.
- In May, the Richmond Times Dispatch interviewed three leaders of Virginia Native American tribes and none was offended by the name.
Thus, Snyder isn't going to cave into pressure. His kicker:
Our franchise has a great history, tradition and legacy representing our proud alumni and literally tens of millions of loyal fans worldwide. We have participated in some of the greatest games in NFL history, and have won five World Championships. We are proud of our team and the passion of our loyal fans. Our fans sing "Hail to the Redskins" in celebration at every Redskins game. They speak proudly of "Redskins Nation" in honor of a sports team they love.
So when I consider the Washington Redskins name, I think of what it stands for. I think of the Washington Redskins traditions and pride I want to share with my three children, just as my father shared with me -- and just as you have shared with your family and friends.
I respect the opinions of those who disagree. I want them to know that I do hear them, and I will continue to listen and learn. But we cannot ignore our 81 year history, or the strong feelings of most of our fans as well as Native Americans throughout the country. After 81 years, the team name "Redskins" continues to hold the memories and meaning of where we came from, who we are, and who we want to be in the years to come.
We are Redskins Nation and we owe it to our fans and coaches and players, past and present, to preserve that heritage.
And that, as they say, is that. (For now, at least.)

Hi Hoggy
Amen to all the above - it is a nice course, 2nd half nicer than the first in my view.. I did it last year and weather was lovely, mid 60sF or thereabouts. The incline at the end lasts about 4 miles - nicely done course planners! One tip - it was clearly stated in the instructions, but I somehow didn't realise that the bag drop is in Retiro (the park where the finish is), which is a good mile or more from the start.. so give yourself plenty of time to drop your bag off. Made for a good warmup for me, running from the start to bag drop and back again...
Good luck!

Chapter III: Party?Mature
There was an awkward silence walking home, I couldn't find out what made me act so different with him, why the hell did he manage to melt my exterior? How? I glanced at him, staring at his looks, sure he was cute. With his sparkling eyes and spiked hair, heck, he was really cute. I started to become dazed as I thought about him and I cursed myself, though admittedly it wasn't that bad.
But he broke my dream when he decided to talk, "You alright?"
"Umm, yeah," I stuttered as he caught me off guard before returning to my usual state, "yes. I'm just fine, why'd you ask?" I get really defensive when someone catches me off guard, just a warning.
"You're being very quiet, that's all," well if you haven't noticed Einstein, I'm not very talkative anyway.
"Thinking, this is... new for me. I'm used to being alone, so I'm sorry my company won't be that amazing," fuck it, my company won't be worth jack.
"Oh that's fine."
"I'm not so inhospitable all the time. Just, reputation to uphold, you know?" Yeah, I don't care about my reputation. I don't become the rebel so people love me for shouting at teachers and skipping school. I'm the rebel so people stay away from me and leave me alone. I guess I got a short temper from that too. It's very rare for me to be this cool.
"Yeah, I know. I've got one too - everyone knows me as the friendly guy, but I'm not always in a friendly mood," he shrugged, hah, I couldn't imagine social whore to turn and shout at someone. Well, I could imagine him fighting with me.
I held a hand to my mouth in mock shock, "never!" I gasped.
"Oh, you know it," he winked, giving me a playful shove and I actually laughed as I stumbled a few steps away from him. Nudging him back as I took my place beside him I suddenly felt very comfortable.
"You should stop by the music room more... if you want to." Okay, I was feeling too comfortable, that room was a room that I could stay away from everyone. To be alone and to play, I would never, ever invite someone to watch... what was wrong with me?
"Yeah, maybe, I prefer my garage... but you never know. You might see me up there again sometime soon," I suddenly really wanted to squeal, like one of those popular kids when they get a date with a guy off the football team, get a grip.
I smiled and nodded instead, "cool."
"You're welcome to come over and jam some time if you like;" he offered as our pace slowed, we neared my house and we both wanted this conversation to last longer, awkwardly.
"Oh uh..." I stuttered. I was actually invited to someone else's house? Wow. Savour this moment, "I don't know where you live though..." blew it.
He just laughed and pointed his thumb over his shoulder, "We just walked past it a couple of minutes ago," what? Why'd he keep walking, the weird social whore.
"You should've gone! Now you're just gonna have to walk back, stupid," I sighed, trying not to accentuate the word, 'stupid.'
"What and sit in my room being a Facebook whore instead?" he shook his head smiling; "I don't mind walking with you," this I chose to ignore, seeing as he was obviously lying.
"Is that all you do after school, Facebook?" I laughed, although I never really saw it coming, because I expected him to go out with friends all the time. I did expect that if the social whore was to stay at home he'd whore it up on the social websites.
"Homework... Facebook... music... Facebook," he thought for a moment, "I need a life," I nodded in agreement.
"You need a girlfriend," I laughed again, but a life works too. I don't know why I said this and I hoped that he didn't think of anything meant by it. By this time we had reached my house, though I was a little reluctant to stop the conversation. I stopped just a little away from my house.
"Yeah, well, maybe I'll find one at my mate's party on Saturday," he joined in the laughter, "You know Jacob, right?"
"Yeah, a little," all I knew was that he was a sex-obsessed popular twat. It was enough to say I did know him.
"So I'll see you there then, right?" Hah, me, party? What you been smoking?
"I... haven't been invited," I muttered to continue being polite.
"Consider yourself invited." He paused, "you're the rebel. Get rebellious." he grinned and I wanted to slap him again.
I rolled my eyes and laughed, "Meet me here, on my door tonight at seven. We'll go to Shots. I'll unlock your rebellious side," I grinned, motioning toward a house a little in the distance, "that is, if you're up to it," I challenged him, my brow rising a little.
"You think I'm not capable of rebelling?" he laughed and I shook my head, "I'll be here. See ya later," yeah bye... weird guy.
I smiled, "Yeah, see you." He laughed again and walked away as I called after him with the remark, 'goody-two-shoes.' That's what he was, he was friends with everyone and focused on being kind to people, even if they did hate his guts. I unlocked the door to my shabby house and breathed a sigh of relief. Empty.

Nissan, as a company, has always tried to do things a little more "right" than other manufacturers. Toyota might focus on making cars marketable and reliable, Honda's got the market cornered on non-hybrid efficiency, and Mazda's held onto "crazy" like it held stock in the concept. But Nissan, like BMW, builds great engines and great cars, like the Altima, just to build great cars.
The Right Tire
The difference between a 215/60 and a 205/60 tire is that the latter uses 10 mm -- about 1/2-inch -- narrower tire tread, and sidewalls that are about 4 mm -- 1/8-inch -- shorter. Generally speaking, installing a slightly wider tire on a given rim is playing it safer, since it reduces the chance of the tire coming off the bead under hard cornering or low air pressure. However, it's not uncommon to mount tires on rims that have exactly the same tread width as rim width; manufacturers will generally mount wider-than-the-rim tires for more absolute cornering grip and ride comfort. In this case, the stock 215/60 tires have tread measuring a little over 8 inches wide, which leaves plenty of room on a 6.5 to 7-inch rim to go down by 1/2-inch to 205-series tires. Expect a slightly harder ride, and a bit less grip during sustained cornering maneuvers. In exchange, those shorter and stiffer sidewalls will give you sharper turn-in and steering response, and more feedback through the steering wheel. The car's ultimate handling limits may be just a tad bit lower on a racetrack, but it will feel sharper and more agile around town.
