Well, this works wonderful as a daily RO conditioner, but I like it better as a deep conditioner, using it at I had used the HRUC above. My hair is even softer, shinier, and bouncier when using this after HRCC for my monthly deep conditioner. I did try it as a LIC too and it works well for my hair (Ohio winter conditions). Now I have 2 great products to work with for RO conditioning, deep conditioning, & LIC (HRLIC is also a great LIC & I use it for a refresher on second and subsequent days--see my review there).

Besiktas have opened talks with Chelsea over signing striker Demba Ba this summer.
The Turkish club have been interested in the 29-year-old for some time and hope Chelsea's imminent acquisition of Atletico Madrid striker Diego Costa will aid their cause.
Ba, who joined from Newcastle for £7.5million in January 2013, was a fringe member of the squad under Jose Mourinho last season, starting just six games in all competitions.
He was on the verge of joining Trabzonspor in January only for the move to break down following an injury to Chelsea team-mate Fernando Torres.
Besiktas president Fikret Orman has begun negotiations with Chelsea over a deal to bring the forward to Turkey and is prepared to take him on loan or a permanent deal.
They face competition from rivals Galatasaray and Fenerbahce but board member Deniz Atalay recently confirmed he is their main target.
He said: "We have made an enquiry for Ba, however Chelsea have not decided whether they want to keep hold of him."
Ba, who still managed to score eight goals last term, including key strikes in the Champions League win over Paris St Germain and the Premier League victory against Liverpool at Anfield, claimed last weekend that Mourinho wants him to stay at Stamford Bridge.
But Chelsea want to raise more transfer funds this summer after agreeing the £48m sale of David Luiz to Paris St Germain as they are already looking to spend £50m on Atletico Madrid pair Costa and left-back Filipe Luis, who has a release clause of £19.4m.
Tiago Mendes, who started Saturday's Champions League Final defeat against Real Madrid, is now out of contract at Atletico and is set to move back to Chelsea, where he played during the 2004-05 season under Mourinho, to provide extra cover in midfield.
Sources in Italy claim that Mourinho is also looking at former Real Madrid player Jose Callejon.
The 27-year-old, who played under the Portuguese at the Bernabeu, can operate as both a winger and a forward and enjoyed a fine season for Napoli having left the Spanish capital last year.Reuse content

Self-Storage Security
Self-storage customers are concerned about the safety of their goods in storage, and security has become a non-negotiable amenity at any self-storage facility. Most self-storage owners and operators invest in some form of access control including perimeter fencing, access gates and keypads. Others install security equipment and features including wireless door alarms, video surveillance, digital video recorders, motion-sensor beams, and site-graphics displays. More and more self-storage owners are exploring top-level security options such as biometrics and off-site monitoring. Crime prevention in self-storage is a burgeoning issue as more and more incidents of theft, arson and vandalism are reported every year.

The always brilliant Darren Franich had a new article up at Entertainment Weekly over the weekend, in which he took a look at the movies of 1999 — once dubbed "the year that changed movies" by his bosses — and asked how well those films have stood the test of time.
That was the year when everyone thought The Matrix would take the place of Star Wars as a sci-fi myth for our times. That was the year when The Blair Witch Project invented the found-footage horror subgenre and proved the value of viral marketing campaigns. That was the year when young, hip directors like David Fincher, David O. Russell and Spike Jonze produced instant cult hits like Fight Club, Three Kings and Being John Malkovich, all of which came out in October of that year. And so on.
But there was another game-changer released in October 1999 that Franich doesn't mention — a movie that may be pretty silly but still set a new precedent.

Peony Farm Peony Shop Holland Nowadays solely concentrates at growing unique, very high superior quality peonies. This hasn't been always the situation. This particular organization has got a wealthy back ground getting started in 1875 with Simon Scholten who also has been growing greens for income.
During the year 2001 this specific company produced their very own modern advertising and marketing-name & logo "Peonyshop.com" and as a result they started centering on growing exclusive peonies. Within 2002 the particular business opened their very own shop on the web", the: peonyshop together with Peonies & Buxus. Within 2003 Joshua Scholten started with multiplying peonies. After that in year 2004 this particular company started to export peonies from the Netherlands all over Europe, America and even Asia.
Currently our peony nursery is specialized in maximizing and multiplying unique, high-quality peony roots that are bought and released throughout the world. Additionally we even reduce peonies mainly assisting the Dutch peony flower sector.The most important things we pride:
The fall season is truly the right moment if you think about seeding peony plants. All the peony plants happen to be unbelievably long-term-lived plants sustaining nearly fifty to seventy yrs, so as soon an individual get them placed in the right way, a person will have fun with the plants for many, many years. The plants prefer some sort of sun-drenched position having a well-drained ground. A good air movement available the peonie is very important. All these surroundings help these plants to prevent sickness issues. To prepare the planting hole meant for a bareroot peony, dig the dirt to a level around 12-18inch. Make use of garden tools to release the edges of the seeding hole at the same time. It is usually really important and vital that the "eye", or growth, nodes, situated close to the base of the old stem, end up no greater than Two inches under the ground area.

This statue, from an ancient Roman villa on the coast north of Rome, was part of a sculptural program there that celebrated Greek culture, displaying the sophisticated taste of the wealthy villa owner. The figure's forceful body, turned head, and emotional facial features recall works attributed to Skopas of Paros, a Greek sculptor of the fourth century BCE. Similar statues, also associated with Skopas, represent the mythical hunter Meleager with boar's head trophy and dog. As the object under the left armpit is most likely not a hunting spear, this statue probably depicts a different hero, or perhaps a god. It may be a Roman variant of a statue by Skopas, or a Roman work in the style of his time. In Greek fashion, it is composed to be seen in the round, and presents us with a flawless nude male body that is meant to express both physical capability and quality of character.

Published Catalogue Text: Stone Sculptures: The Greek, Roman and Etruscan Collections of the Harvard University Art Museums , written 1990
A good number of copies of the lost original (which was probably in bronze) show a Greek hero, with a head like those of Skopas and a body influenced by the work of Lysippos, either leaning on a staff or with a spear against the left shoulder. The presence of a boar's head by the left foot and, seemingly, a hound at the subject's right side, plus the relationship to Skopas's sculptures for the temple of Tegea, have given rise to the identification of the subject as Meleager, hunter of the Calydonian boar, and the sculptor as Skopas.
While the original and its numerous, variant copies all show an ideal hero and have nothing to do with Greek portraiture, a head from a statue, now at Houghton Hall in Norfolk, was carved as a likeness of a Hellenistic ruler, surely a Seleucid. The marble was a copy of the Antonine period after an original based on Skopas's statue (Oehler, 1980, p. 73, no. 66, pl. 22).
Along with the head and torso of the statue as rejoined (most recently in 1961-1962) came eighteen fragments that may belong to the base (Hanfmann, Pedley, 1964, p. 62). Three fragments joined to form the hero's lower leg. Another fragment is part of the thigh. Two fragments seem to have been parts of Meleager's dog and boar's head and three fragments joined to form what might have been part of the stick(?) on which Meleager leaned and part of a chlamys falling down the left arm.
The chief difference in the Harvard copy and its mate from Santa Marinella in Berlin, one of the touchstones for the group of copies, is that the javelin held in the left hand has been replaced by a staff lodged under the left arm. The feeling is that both the boar's head and the dog were part of the original composition in bronze, the latter beside the hero's right leg and the former by his left foot.
While the more slender and youthful "boy victor" (Narcissus) after Polykleitos could be identified as Adonis when a boar's head was added to the support on which the lad leaned, there is no question here that the more mature, more formidable figure of Meleager was intended, not the least reason being that a Meleager based on this Skopasian statue appears frequently as the protagonist on sarcophagi.

After weeks of offscreen drama between lawyers and the cast and crew of popular legal show 'Ma Sibq Al Israr' (With Prior Insistency) [2], the dispute is set to hit a real-life courtroom. Many lawyers were upset when the show - which they say snubbs their career - hit TV screens earlier this year. Now, they have decided to take action the best way they know how - in the court! A case has been put forward to take the show off the air by lawyer Samir Sabri, and is set to be heard on 3 November. This is bad news for Ghada Abdel Raziq [3]who plays a starring role in the show. The Egyptian actress [4] has led the defence in the argument, telling the media that whilst her own character might be corrupt this is not a reflection of the profession as a whole. But, the star will now be forced to take these pleas of innocence to the Judge. Do you think it's necessary for this case to go to court or have lawyers overreacted? What do you think the judgement will be? Leave us your comments below!

Auditor Bump Identifies $37,949 in Wrongful Charges at Middlesex Human Service Agency
Agency to Return State Money, Revamps Accounting Practice
BOSTON, MA (February 23, 2011) – State Auditor Suzanne M. Bump today released an audit that found the Middlesex Human Service Agency, Inc. (MHSA) wrongfully billed and received $37,949 in payments from the Department of Transitional Assistance. These payments were to be used for running the Bristol Lodge Men's Shelter and providing other related services for homeless men in the Waltham area. The audit reported that the funds were improperly used to pay for employees who did not work in the program.
As a result of the audit, MHSA agreed to fully reimburse the State. The agency has also hired a Certified Public Accountant to take over its accounting and billing activities for state-funded programs.
"I am pleased the Middlesex Human Service Agency quickly acted on our recommendations and has taken steps to strengthen fiscal controls so this won't happen in the future," said Auditor Bump. "The State is faced with a bleak budget outlook, so it is more important than ever to recover wrongful human service payments."
Auditor Bump also reported that MHSA was not keeping complete records of the clients it serves at the shelter. Under the conditions of its state contracts, MHSA is required to maintain records for seven years, but could not provide documents for a number of clients during the audit period from July 2006 to June 2010.
Since the audit, MHSA followed audit recommendations and changed record- keeping procedures to ensure staff obtains information on all clients, according to the MHSA's response.

Panettiere protests Japan dolphin hunt November 2, 2007, 4:54 pm PDT
celebs: Hayden Panettiere
Associated Press
TOKYO - Hayden Panettiere and some fellow animal rights activists drew angry shouts and some shoving from fishermen in Japan when they tried to interfere with a dolphin hunt, according to video footage shot by the protesters.
The six activists from the anti-whaling group Sea Shepherd paddled out on surfboards to a cove in the town of Taiji in southwestern Japan on Tuesday to interfere with the annual hunt.
Fishermen on a boat approached the activists and ordered them to leave, shoving some of them with a long pole. An angry fisherman later shouted in the face of one of the protesters on the road above the cove. There did not appear to be any injuries.
"This baby stuck its head out and kind of looked as us, and the thought that the baby is no longer with us is very difficult," Panettiere, who stars in the NBC show "Heroes," said after coming ashore.
The local fishermen and their supporters say hunting dolphins in this case, pilot whales is a Japanese custom that outsiders have no business interfering with.
"Whales and dolphins are traditionally being used (as resources) in Japan," said Hideki Moronuki, chief of the whaling section at the Japanese Fisheries Agency. "In this light, we cannot accept an argument simply based on emotional causes."
About 14,000 dolphins are killed for food in Japan every year.
Coastal dolphin hunts usually involve herding groups of the animals into a cove using sonar equipment, or by banging metal rods in the water, creating a sort of acoustic barrier. The mammals are then trapped using nets and divers are sent in to kill them.

The people in charge at every level have to be on the same page and know what's going on.
It's for that reason that Pittsburgh Pirates general manager Neal Huntington believes the newest franchise in Morgantown will be a huge success for years to come.
The partnership between the Pirates, Rich Baseball Operations and West Virginia University will be Pittsburgh's short-season Class-A New York-Penn League affiliate to Morgantown and call the new Monongalia County Ballpark home when it opens in 2015.
"It's great to be getting to work with so many great people. With Oliver and the people in Monongalia County, along with the Rich family, this is a great partnership," Huntington told BlueGoldNews.com Monday. "It's the right fit for us. This is the entry level and this is where you set your expectations as an organization. It's where these guys are going to learn what it means to be a professional baseball player, and we think Morgantown will be a great place for them to start their professional baseball careers once we draft them or bring them into our organization."
Rich Baseball owns the Jamestown Jammers, the team that will be relocating to Morgantown. Although he said the process of moving a franchise from city to city is never something an owner usually does, Bob Rich said it was hard to turn down the opportunity to bring a Minor League franchise to a place like Morgantown.
With the strong fanbase for West Virginia baseball already in place, as well as a strong love toward the sport in North Central West Virginia, Morgantown just felt like the right city for Rich to bring the team.
"I like the way this city is self-contained. You have great sports from WVU, you're close to a city with great pro sports and that's a natural affiliation," Rich said. "The people respond to the values we've seen. All the pieces are there. We should be able to present something that the fans will enjoy.
"We didn't want to be shopping around for places to move, but at the same time, Oliver (Luck) made it well known what was going on here, and it just happened that the timing worked out and we could be available for that."
The franchise is going to have plenty of benefits for all involved. One of the big things talked about during Monday's press conference was the fact that Morgantown has plenty of fans of the Pirates, and all of the good things that will come with having a Pittsburgh affiliate in Morgantown. In addition to that, there are the obvious benefits that the ballpark and the new team can help bring into the city and to Monongalia County as a whole.
"Bringing the Pirates here is awesome. Who wouldn't want to go watch a game of young players who could be wearing the Pirates colors?" Luck said. "It's also a great economic story for North Central West Virginia. This will have an economic impact of about $3 or $4 million every year, and that's great. It will provide jobs and give families good family entertainment. It's great for everyone, I think."

Gwaii Haanas (Place of Wonder)
Sailing among Queen Charlotte Islands opens up an unparalleled cruising ground.
The islands lie 60 miles out to sea from the Canadian mainland, 30 miles from the southern tip of the Alaskan panhandle, and 100 miles northwest of Vancouver Island. The passage across
A deep-red sunset heralded a memorable night and brilliant phosphorescence glowed in our wake as a bright Great Bear constellation sparkled overhead.
A succulent dinner arrives on board in time.
Sea lions are among some of the other mariners one is likely to encounter on this stretch of coast.
The wind came up for a great sail to SGaang Gwaii (Anthony Island), a rugged, bird-foot shaped island off the southwest coast. Over 300-feet high and constantly battered by waves from the western Pacific, it is home to our largest species of black bears, being visited as well by migrating whales and many exotic birds, such as, black-footed albatrosses and tufted puffins. It also has the best-preserved Haida village, Nan Sdins (Ninstints), which was declared a World Heritage Cultural Site by UNESCO in 1981.
Haunting totem poles attest to the ancient seafaring Haida.
Tragically, this once thriving village was decimated by small pox, which was brought to the islands by missionaries and traders in the nineteenth century. By 1862, only 600 of the estimated 7,000 Haida in the islands still survived. In 1884, 25 carved mortuary poles still stood here. Many rotted away, so in 1957 others were removed and taken to the mainland to be preserved.
A typical Queen Charlotte's anchorage. When anchoring don't forget to account for those 23-foot tides.
The ground was springy under our feet as we walked slowly in the brilliant sunshine, frequently pausing to absorb the sight of the leaning memorial poles in their lush setting, framed by dark cedars and golden grass. It was a fascinating glimpse of life gone by, a testimony to an ancient heritage. According to legend, the Haida were created here by the raven who captured the sun after it brought life-giving light to the dark ice-encrusted earth. We felt privileged to be able to stand and absorb this poignant scene before all signs of the village disappear into the earth, which inevitably happens in this climate.
Sgaang Gwaii is part of the South Moresby Island Gwaii Haanas National Park Reserve, and stretches over 60 miles from north to south, encompassing 138 islands and 800 miles of shoreline that provide spectacular anchorages. (See sidebar for park regulations.) Scenery varies from lush green growth to bare rocks, from misty inlets to dramatic mountain vistas. There are old-growth rainforests of huge western hemlock, red cedar, and Sitka spruce that were alive during the time of the crusades, and an amazing 500 abandoned Haida sites.
|"We felt privileged to be able to stand and absorb this poignant scene before all signs of the village disappear into the earth . . . "
The annual plankton bloom triggers a fish feeding frenzy that in turn attracts migrating birds and whales. There are a quarter-million nesting birds of many varieties—peregrine falcons, hawks, aukletts, and the highest concentration of bald eagles in North America. A variety of whale species may be sighted, including blue, sperm, minke, sei, gray, finback, humpback, and orca, and there are huge numbers of sea lions and seals. Burnaby Narrows has an incredibly rich display of inter-tidal life, with nudibranchs, shellfish, crustacia, anemones, and starfish of innumerable shapes and colors, all fascinating to explore at low tide.
Even the mightiest totem pole bows to the elements over time.
"It would have been sighted on one of the expeditions to the mainland, so it was even more prestigious," she explained. By the end of the morning she had brought alive the clearing with its few scattered logs to recreate the village and daily activities of a community 700 strong of both the Eagle and Raven clans.
Who needs hot water on board when there are hot springs ashore? The captain and crew soak up the good life.
A few days later there was a sudden change in weather, not uncommon for these waters. It was amazing how rapidly the winds increased and the seas came crashing in on the shores.

Our three-week vacation flew by, and then it was time to hand Bagheera over to friends. On this trip we had five families sharing our boat over a two-month period for the visit from Vancouver. The unpredictable weather demands a flexible schedule to come this far north (almost 500 miles from Vancouver), especially by sailboat. Winds can be strong, but sometimes there are several weeks of calm and a reliable engine becomes essential if running on tight deadlines.
The vistas, the wildlife, the fascinating inter-tidal discoveries, the Haida sites, the local personalities, and the adventure of cruising in a remote area made the Queen Charlotte Islands a remarkable cruise. Adults and children alike still discuss their beauty with animated enthusiasm.
Procedures for visiting Gwaii Haanas National Park Reserve
The area is protected by a joint agreement of the Haida Nation and Canadian Government.
A reservation to visit the park must be made in advance because visitors are restricted to 300 per day in the peak season, which includes most of July and August. Call Supernatural BC at: 1-800-435-5622. There is a $15.00 non-refundable reservation fee per person. Park entry is $10.00 per person per night from one to five days, a flat fee of $60 per person for six to 14 days, and a flat rate of $80.00 per person over 14 days that allows multiple entries. In addition to those booked, six standby places are allowed. Consideration will be given to late arrival due to bad weather.
An appointment with the Park—(250) 559-8818—for an orientation is also required. These are held two or three times daily in both Queen Charlotte City and Sandspit, depending on the season. Those arriving from the south can call the wardens at Ellen Island or Huxley Island on VHF Channel 16 to make an appointment for an on-site orientation.

You heard us right. After you pay the initial $5 standard shipping charge on your first Woot order of the day, everything else you buy before midnight Central time gets free standard shipping.
That goes for any order, of any size, from any site in the Wootosphere. Buy from Woot, then grab a new tee at Shirt.Woot. Shop for the kids at Kids.Woot and yourself at Home.Woot. One $5 charge ships it all."

Um, isn't Ralphie's house in the movie actually located in Ohio, not Indiana. I know the movie was supposed to take place in Indiana, but at least all of the house scenes (at least 90% of the movie)were filmed in Ohio.

He's talking about where the movie takes place, which is northern Indiana, where Jean Shepherd grew up. All of the people and places in the story (and the film) are based, some more loosely than others, on real people and places.
Who cares where it was filmed?
Aaww, man. While I love Krampus, I'm just not a fan of the design of this shirt at all. Too bad. I still wear this one all the time, though:

Dozens of women have filed lawsuits against Wyeth Pharmaceuticals claiming that use of its antidepressant Effexor during pregnancy caused their children to be born with birth defects. These women are claiming that the pharmaceutical giant failed to provide adequate warnings about use of the drug during pregnancy and is therefore legally responsible for damages related to their children's birth defects. These lawsuits are seeking compensation for medical bills, both past and future, as well as other related costs.
Did you use Effexor while pregnant? Was your child born with a birth injury? If so, you may be able to file a lawsuit. If you have questions about taking legal action, or want to find out if you could be owed compensation, contact us today for more information.
Is This a Class Action Lawsuit?
No, the Effexor lawsuits will not continue as a class action. Each Effexor victim will have to file an individual lawsuit with an attorney. All federally-filed lawsuits alleging a link between Effexor and birth defects have been transferred to the U.S. District Court Eastern District of Pennsylvania before a single judge, Cynthia M. Rufe, in a procedure known as multidistrict litigation.
What Are the Lawsuits Saying About Effexor?
Plaintiffs in the Effexor litigation allege that the antidepressant is defective and unreasonably dangerous due to its effects on unborn children. According to the lawsuits, Wyeth knew that its antidepressant could cross the placenta, posing an increased risk of birth defects, injuries and death; however, the manufacturer allegedly failed to provide adequate warnings to doctors and patients about these risks. The lawsuits also claim that:
Lawsuits are seeking reimbursement for past and future medical expenses and lost wages, as well as compensation for pain and suffering, mental anguish, and loss of companionship, love and affection. Some plaintiffs are also requesting punitive damages, which a judge may award to punish the defendant and discourage other companies from engaging in similar conduct.
What Birth Defects Have Been Linked to Effexor?
Effexor use during pregnancy has been linked to the following injuries in newborns:
Heart defects: Enlarged hearts, septal heart defects, valve problems, hypoplastic left heart syndrome, narrow aortas, left outflow tract heart defects, Tetralogy of Fallot, transposition of the great arteries and Patent Ductus Arteriosis.
Developmental Defects: Club foot, cleft lip, cleft palate, genital malformation, limb defects and anal atresia.
Spinal and Skull Defects: Spina bifidia, craniosynostosis and macrocephaly (abnormally large head).
Abdominal Defects: Omphalocele and gastroschisis (organs protrude out of stomach).
While some of these birth defects can be corrected with surgery, others are permanent and will require consistent monitoring throughout the child's lifetime.
How Much Does a Lawyer Cost?
Many lawyers who handle lawsuits involving defective drugs will only charge their clients if they win the case. In most cases, these lawyers will collect a percentage of the final settlement or verdict award as payment.
Have you or a loved one delivered a child with birth defects? Did you use Effexor, Effexor XR or venlafaxine hydrochloride (HCl) while pregnant? If so, an attorney may be able to assist you in filing a lawsuit. These attorneys believe that large pharmaceutical companies, such as Wyeth, should be held liable for their actions and are dedicated to recovering compensation for affected families. For more information, contact us today.

Idina Menzel: John Travolta and I Are "Buddies"
She had a very awkward evening at the 2014 Academy Awards when John Travolta introduced her as "Adele Dazeem," but now Idina Menzel is ready to reveal her reaction to the now infamous pronunciation.
In the latest issue of Billboard magazine, the "Frozen" beauty opened up about performing "Let It Go" at the Oscars and discussed the "Grease" star's mistake.
"I was very zen, I had all of these visuals set for myself. Meditations," Miss Menzel explained. "I was going to think about my 4-year-old son, all this stuff to stay focused and stay in the moment and enjoy it and not think of all the crazy celebrities out there."
She continued, "That threw me for a minute, but then I just got back on track and reminded myself of where I was. [John] was really gracious and sent this gorgeous email, and we're buddies and it's all cool."
When asked about the John's error that's now made her a household, Idina stated, "Please. I mean, I've only benefited from it."

Q. My husband does not have a problem getting an erection, nor does he lack desire to have sex, but he almost never ejaculates. Is it possible for a man to feel satisfied by intercourse even though he does not ejaculate? I know he used to be able to ejaculate if he masturbated but cannot now. Can you help me out here? I enjoy sex and want to make sure he does too.
A. It's important to recognize the full extent of the male sexual response. The arousal phase marked by erection also includes other physiological changes including increase in heart rate and blood pressure, rate of breathing, flushing of the skin, increase in muscle tension, nasal congestion as the "erectile tissue" of the nasal cavity become engorged, lubrication of the urethra (producing a sticky discharge from the end of the penis), and a shifting of blood to the pelvic area. As orgasm approaches, all of these changes increase until the orgasmic release occurs.
Orgasm is most obviously signaled by ejaculation, the forceful emission of seminal fluid from the penis. This produces only a part of the pleasurable sensation of the orgasm. The contractions of the vas deferens and outer leg muscles in a rhythmic cycle; the intense muscular contraction of large muscle groups such as the buttocks, thighs, and abdomen; sweating, a respiratory response; and the relaxation that follows all contribute to the intense pleasure of orgasm. These may occur to varying degrees during a particular sexual experience.
Consequently, a man may have a satisfying experience without ejaculation. If the other aspects of arousal and orgasm are present, there may be no cause for concern. One explanation for this may be that he is having "retrograde" ejaculations. In this condition the seminal fluid is directed back up the urethra into the bladder rather than externally out of the penis. This is not a dangerous pattern, and a urological evaluation can identify whether this is the case.
It is also possible for ejaculation to be inhibited by psychological factors (such as fear of pregnancy or guilt over sexuality), physical factors (such as fatigue or alcohol use), or as side effects from some medications (such as tranquilizers and antidepressants).
From your question, we assume that you and your husband enjoy your sexual relationship and have not suffered from the lack of his ejaculatory response. Since many women find the "mess" of ejaculation to be a problem, you may have had an unusual blessing to celebrate. If your husband has in fact been frustrated or disappointed, a urologist should be able to identify the cause and reassure both of you that there is no serious reason for alarm.

SThree's chief executive is to leave the white-collar recruiter four months earlier than expected, after 26 years at the FTSE 250 firm.
Russell Clements, who became SThree's second employee in 1986 and has been chief executive since 2004, was to hand over to chief strategy officer Gary Elden in April, but today SThree said: "Russell and Gary have been working closely together to ensure a smooth handover of responsibilities, with a number of key tasks being completed ahead of schedule.
"In light of this... Gary will succeed Russell as chief executive with effect from 1 January 2013, at which point Russell will retire from the board."
Clements has said he's leaving SThree because he "wouldn't want to leave the planet having worked in one industry since [he] was 22."
The recruiter, the third-biggest professional jobs firm in Britain, said gross profit for the year will come in at £205.4 million, up 8% on the previous year, helped by growth in filling energy and engineering jobs, and the pharmaceuticals and biotechnology sectors. But Elden may have a tough time ahead as that level of growth has slowed to 2% in the fourth quarter compared to the same time a year ago.
Clements said: "The group has traded satisfactorily during the year, against a macro economic backdrop that became increasingly difficult across the period. As I leave the business after twenty six years, I believe SThree is in good shape."

Tornadoes of 2011: Birmingham Edition
The students and community of Birmingham, Alabama and in particular Wilkerson Middle School were affected by the vicious storms that raged through Alabama at the end of April. The students of Wilkerson Middle School needed an outlet for their feelings of fear, anger, sadness, and confusion. This podcast provided them with not only that outlet, but also an opportunity to express themselves in regards to their safety, and the survival of their community. As the comments are sometimes off the cuff and completely child created, there is no transcript, only the mention of the student's names.
The Land of Alabama
ArchiTreats: Food for Thought will celebrate the Year of Alabama History through a series of sequential lectures in Alabama history by leading experts in the field. Join us for the first in the series at noon on Thursday, January 15 as John Hall presents The Land of Alabama, a talk on the physical geography and geology of Alabama. This presentation will be held at the Alabama Department of Archives and History. The varied landscape of the state is often taken for granted, but the state is the result of a half- billion years of changes. It has endured continental collision, the up-thrusting of a mountain range, deposition of a giant coastal plain—twice—and the recent massive erosion of its valleys. It has survived near-misses by glaciers, strikes by giant meteorites and its mountains being worn flat and thrust up again. Parts of it have been sea bottoms full of giant reptiles while dinosaurs roamed its hills and valleys. All this before the Indians arrived and made it theirs. This presentation will introduce the physical landscape of the state and set the stage for the talks to come in the rest of the 2009 ArchiTreats series. John Hall is presently Curator of the new Black Belt Museum at the University of West Alabama. He is the retired chief naturalist at the University of Alabama - Museum of Natural History in Tuscaloosa and is a well-known Alabama naturalist and teacher. He specializes in the connections of science and history in Alabama. He is well-known for his programs on botanist William Bartram and the Sylacauga meteorite. This ArchiTreats presentation is made possible by the Friends of the Alabama Archives and a grant from the Alabama Humanities Foundation, a state program of the National Endowment for the Humanities. The public is invited to bring a sack lunch and enjoy a bit of Alabama history. Coffee and tea will be provided by the Friends of the Alabama Archives. For more information, call (334) 353-4712.

Dan Records Randolph was on the air in the 70's and 80's for KADA, as well as on the air for KTLS in the middle 80's. Since Dan got into trouble on the air a little too much, and the cops repremanded him one too many times, Dan decided to join the guys taking him in. In 1989, Dan Records Randolph put down the radio microphone, and picked up a different microphone, yelling at criminals. Dan was a Deputy Sheriff from 1989 to 2009.

Imagine that a computer is built to make empirical generalizations with inductive logic (whatever that may be) and that this computer is in a simple universe with a limited number of individuals,number of properties, and relationships between these properties the individuals can have. Furthermore, the universe operates with a limited number of 'natural laws'. In this universe a computer can be created such that in some reasonable period of time it will discover the 'natural laws'. If the laws were modified, then the computer would find a new set of laws. If this universe were further complicated, then this computer could be enhanced to be able to formulate hypotheses, to test these hypotheses, and to eliminate those that do not survive testing.
This induction machine is limited insofar as it is limited by its programmer's intellectual horizon: the programmer decides what is or is not a property or relation; the programmer decides what the induction machine can recognize as repetitions; it is the programmer that decides what kinds of questions the machine should address. All the most important and difficult problems are already solved by the programmer, and this induction machine is little more than a speeding-up process of a room full of bean-counters or punch-card holders.
Here we have today's work in artificial intelligence, which is precisely limited by this constraint. The theories that these computer programs develop are conditional on the initial conditions that are needed for in an induction machine. Inductive inferences does not then occur within the context of discovery; the programmer provides these. Inductive inferences occur within the context of justification, and even then it still does not satisfactorily solve the problem of induction, for the problem cannot logically be solved. These computers have become problem-solving machines that operate on conjecturing the most parsimonious theory and attempted refutation of that theory.

Varicose Veins and Other Vein Disorders
Basic Facts & Information
Varicose veins are swollen, and sometime painful, veins that have filled with more blood than is usual. As many as one out of every two people over the age of 50 is affected by varicose veins.
Varicose veins happen most often on your calves or inside of your legs and bulge above the skin's surface. Varicose veins are usually dark purple or blue in color, and may look "ropey" or twisted. Smaller varicose veins may be thinner and red rather than purple and swollen; these are called "spider veins."
Other Vein Problems
A blockage in a vein can occur close to the surface of your skin, called superficial thrombophlebitis. Blockages can also happen in veins deeper inside your body and in thise case, the condition is called deep vein thrombosis. Deep vein thrombosis is a serious condition that requires prompt medical attention.

I have a constrained maximization problem of two variables. The
function itself is rather complicated. Some properties of the function:
* There is a summation involved.

evaluate the expression over a matrix to find the maximum. To
implement the constraint, I assign a flag to combinations of the choice
variables which violate the constraint.
This method works, but is extremely slow as I must perform this
optimization many times. Can I use any of the functions in Mathematica

wet sanding and saving my finger tips....
I am about ready to do the finish wet sanding on my moms 1990 Dodge Daytona and I am wondering what some of you do to save your finger tips. The block sanding isn't the problem it is the soft block for the curves and edges that get me. The last time I sanded down a whole car was my 1971 Mustang, I sanded my finger tips off to the point were they all bled. I know some guys who taped their finger tips but the tape get wet and comes off, and others who wear rubber/neoprean gloves but that takes my feel away from the sanding surface. Does anybody else have this problem or is it just me, any advice would be appreciated.
You might try using superglue on the tips of your fingers. Spread a dab of it on there and smear it around quickly. You'll have messy fingerprints for a couple weeks, but it acts like a callous.
Just dont get your fingers all stuck.. its not fun to pull them apart when the stuff drys.
This is gonna sound so girly! Anyhow, when we did the '91 Mustang, I taped up my fingertips with this glueless tape. It's tape the adheres to itself, and believe it or not, it holds up pretty well to the moisture. :)
I never would have though about using super glue, and the tape thing would be ok to if it holds up good to being constantly wet. BTW what kind of tape is it 3M or just some cheap stuff you get at the hardware store. I am thinking almost anything is better than sanding my finger tips off but I wont use gloves, I need to feel when sanding with a soft block.
Actually, it's medical tape. The kind you'd buy to say, tape gauze on your arm, without ripping hair off. It's pretty inexpensive, and believe me, it ain't coming off until you TAKE it off. :)
P.S. The super glue thing is a kick *** idea. Another laternative would be liquid bandage.........that stuff burns like mad when applied to an open cut, but like the super glue, it forms a barrier, and it'll definitely stay put. :)
Go to Harbor Freight and get a box of latex or vinyle gloves...they work great.
You shouldn't be applying pressure with your finger tips. I've sanded thousands of cars and never hurt my finger tips.
I keep a box of finger condoms to protect my fingers when I get a scraped knuckle or cut. they will stay on when a band aid will not and the keep it clean and dry.
Remember use the palm and keep your hand flat.
If you don't make mistakes. your not doing anything.

If you are wearing down your fingertips then you a sanding wrong. Also by using the tips you will end up with bad places that will most definately show up when you paint.
I know what he is talking about, even using a sanding block, your finger tips take a beating. It doesn't mean he is sanding with only his finger tips.
Very rarely have I ever used tips of the fingers to sand. Also I don't ever think I had the tips sensitive from sanding either. When I would sand along a body line I would use the area right at the base of the thumb to sand with. I'm not sure what you would call it, maybe the ball of your hand. If I had to get in a tight place like along a drip rail I would crease the paper, insert it into the area and use the thumb to sand keeping pressure light. Everyone has a technique that they use and it is kind of hard to explain how to do it. Also when you sand make sure you keep the paper wet to keep it clean. Usually I have a bucket and a sponge to keep things wiped down and keep the paper dipped between sanding to keep it rinsed out. That makes the paper go farther and makes the sanding easier. Of course quite a few people will sand dry. That is your option. The only thing you really need to be sure of if you wet sand is that the car is thoroughly dry before painting. Water can stay trapped in cracks and crevices where you would not expect it. I always would take the air hose and blow out all areas just to be sure. Nothing can ruin a paint job faster than water coming out of a crack.
I really am not a novice at bodywork, I used to be a bodyman I even went to school 2 years for it. I might be sanding wrong, but it doesn't matter how I sand. My finger tips take a beating, thats what I rembered when I did my 71 Mustang 11 years ago. I knew some old timers who were doing bodywork from 1940s to 70's and they wore tape on there finger tips. Maybe it is just my technique, I never have had any problems with my sanding jobs either so I know I am not sanding wrong. I really don't want to argue about sanding I just wanted to know if I could do something to keep me from messing up my finger tips. I am going to be doing alot of wet sanding here in a few days. I started to do some bodywork again after a 9 year hiatus, my mom wants me to paint her 89 or maybe its a 90 Dodge Daytona. I have most of the work done, I just need to do a prime on it and wet sand it out and hopefully I will be off to the paint booth by next Friday. I will put some pictures up when I get done, even though its a Dodge Daytona. Thank You to everybody for your input on this. :)
I also have never had any finger tip problems when wet sanding. I do fold the paper so the grit will keep my hand from slipping. I try to use all the fingers and palm in even contact with the surface and sand back and forth in one direction the first time and then 90 degrees to that direction the second time.I only apply enough pressure to keep the paper against the surface.
OK, I have had some finger tip abrasion when wet sanding. This has not come from the tips of my finger contacting the sanded surface, but from holding the sanding block which has sand paper wrapped around it. Could just be my techinque, or lack there of:D
Well as long as everyone agrees that techniques are correct it's just some people have longer fingers than others and get run over by the paper. LOL!!! Try getting some finger cots. They look like little prophylactics for fingers. You could probably get them at any drug store by the box. That way the tips are protected without having something wrapped around them or glued on.
onebadmerc... You don't need to wet sand anymore... Stop at your paint store and ask them about 3M's Soft Pad system. It goes right on your DA. I used this for the first time this spring on my full size pickup and I had the whole vehicle sanded down with 600 grit, ready for paint, in an hour... I did have to do a few spots by hand but this soft pad thing works like a dream. If you don't have to do a lot of body work this thing is a real time (and finger tip) saver.

Castle Village Farm's NY=bred gelding Dr Disco won the 4th race at Aqueduct on Friday, April 11th. Dr Disco, trained by Bruce Brown and ridden expertly by Mike Luzzi, tracked the early speed, took over at the head of the stretch and then held off a late charge by Jeter to prevail by a head on the wire.
Castle Village Farm's three-year-old NY-bred filly Underthemoonlight (Golden Missile-Yon Van Dance by Yonaguska) finished third in a state-bred N1X allowance/optional $75,000 claimer at Aqueduct on March 28th. Under jockey Manny Franco, Underthemoonlight sat behind the two early speed horses, on a day when speed was doing very well on the rail, then fended off challenges in the stretch to preserve her in-the-money finish. Underthemoonlight now has a record of 1-1-1 from five lifetime starts, with total earnings of $56,180.
Snow and poor track conditions forced a postponement of the East View Stakes, scheduled for December 15th. The race is now scheduled for Sunday, December 22nd, going as Aqueduct's 8th race. CVF's two-year-old NY-bred filly Underthemoonlight, fresh off a maiden win on November 29th, will face 7 rivals and will likely go off at double-digit odds, with regular jockey Manuel Franco aboard.
Good luck!
Castle Village Farm Racing Manager Steve Zorn was featured on an NPR Marketplace radio segment on Friday, December 13th. Steve was interviewed by Marketplace's Lizzie O'Leary on the expiring tax break that allows owners to depreciate the cost of yearlings and two-year-olds over three years, rather than seven years as under the law before 2009.
The interview is available at http://mktplc.org/18IBvfU
Castle Village Farm's two-year-old NY-bred filly, fresh off her maiden win on November 29th, is entered in the East View Stakes, a $100,000 two-turn race restricted to NY-breds, at Aqueduct on Sunday, December 15th.
Underthemoonlight will once again have jockey Manuel Franco aboard, and will face a field of six, headed by multiple stakes winner Miss Narcissist, the likely odds-on favorite.
Castle Village Farm's New York-bred two-year-old filly Underthemoonlight (Golden Missile-Yon Van Dance by Yonaguska), fresh off a maiden special weight win on November 29th at Aqueduct, has been nominated to the East View Stakes, the final NY-bred two-year-old filly stakes of the year. The $100,000 East View will be run at a distance of a mile and 70 yards at Aqueduct on Sunday, December 15th. The race drew a compact list of 11 nominations.
While the 15-day turnaround time from Underthemoonlight's win to the East View may be too short, and the distance may be too long, still, it's great to have a filly that shows enough talent to justify making the nomination. We're looking forward to good things with Underthemoonlight, whether she ends up running in the East View or not.
Castle Village Farm's New York-bred two-year-old filly, Underthemoonlight (Golden Missile-Yon Von Dance by Yonaguska) won the 7th race at Aqueduct on Friday, November 29th. The race was Underthemoonlight'ssecond career start, following a runner-up finish in her debut November 1st. In her maiden special weight win, Underthemoonlight tracked the early leaders, then went through between horses off the far turn and prevailed in a prolonged stretch duel.
Congratulations to trainer Bruce Brown, jockeyManuel Franco, and especially to EoodberryPayne, who found the horse for us
Castle Village Farm's East of Danzig won the 10th race at Belmont on Sunday, October 13th. Under a well-timed ride by Manuel Franco, East of Danzig saved ground down the backstretch, then angled to the outside coming into the stretch and ran down the front-runners in convincing fashion, winning by three-quarters of a length.
East of Danzig was claimed out of the race, so our CVF 2012 claiming partnership is once again looking for a new horse.

Yeah, a 30-06 is plenty. But my question is...plenty for what?

Since I can't afford an AR, what rifle would you recommend?
would a bolt action 30-06 be plenty?
Yeah, a 30-06 is plenty. But my question is...plenty for what?
There are only TWO kinds of people in this world; those who describe the world as filled with two kinds of people...and those who don't.
What are you wanting to use the rifle for? Hunting, home defense or both.
How much have you got to spend?
Do you have a 12ga shotgun?
If you haven't got a shotgun I'd get a Mossberg HD, hunting combo for around $300 to $350 first.
If you answer the above questions I can better answer your original question
A real man loves his wife, and places his family as the most important thing in life. Nothing has brought me more peace and content in life than simply being a good husband and father.
Ok these are my plans.
I'm going to be getting a Remington 870 Express.
I'd like to get an AR for HD, but they're way out there on prices so i'd figured I'd get something more in my ball park...
So that's why I brought up the question.
oh by the way, yes for both...
What about an AK? They're usually more affordable than an AR.
"Wise people learn when they can; fools learn when they must." - The Duke of Wellington
pistol caliber carbine? the keltec 9mm is darn hard t find, but I want one. The .40cal is plentiful for around $300, I think. 30.06 is too much for HD, IMO.

A rifle........a shotgun? Well now, let's see. Keeping well below the avarage price of an AR-15, you could probably have both. Say I had a total budget of $400 (less than half an AR-15)....what would I get if I wanted a rifle and a shotgun? Shotgun--One of my local Wal Marts had the Mossberg Maverick88 on sale here about a month ago for $147...I don't know what the regular price is on them, but I figure it would still be less than $200. The rifle-----cost of ammo, price.......I'm going to say what comes to the top of my head here, and if you were just wanting a rifle and nothing else, my thinking would be different, and I'll explain that here in a minute--but I would get a Ruger 10/22. Now of course, that's if you even entertained the thought of both rifle and shotgun. For the rifle only (and I'm not sure what your allowance is for that), I might go for the 30-06. The model of 30-06 I would choose would be the 750 Woodmaster, but that might even set you back $700 if new...I would look for used hopefully around or under $500 with a scope already mounted. The 10/22 would be a good game-getter in a survival circumstance, and very effective for keeping things at bay at 75yds or under and very accurate once you learn the ballistics, and easy to feed with 500 rounds of ammo under $15. Defensively, it should be used anywhere above the chest area. If you want something more, maybe a 22 magnum, still under $300 and lower cost ammo.

A .22lr is a good choice, it is great for small game ammo is cheap and you can carry alot of ammo. High cap mags are available which can give you a high volume of fire with little recoil. This is highly portable and when coupled with a large caliber pistol it makes an almost perfect BUGOUT survival combo
If you are wanting a larger caliber rifle for under $400 then a bolt action or single shot is about your only choice, unless you go for a SKS or AK. The SKS can be used for hunting fairly easily but the AK is more limited.

Have you looked at a Ruger Mini-14? Cheaper than a AR and very reliable.
While people are saying "Peace and safety," destruction will come on them suddenly, ... and they will not escape. 1Th 5:3
I'm new to the gun world so all this stuff is new to me lol..
I bought a Magtech .22 that holds 10rds.. I got a heck of a deal.. $40
Very nice shape..
is that what's meant by .22lr?
I use to have a 30-06 bolt action savage but I sold it like 4 yrs ago.. I thought I was going to be a hunter but decided I wasn't cut out for that lol..
Now I wish I had never sold it..
When people just say '22' they almost always mean '22lr', unless there is something more specified such as '22 magnum'.

TRICKORMATE, RamRod has a good piece of advice. Get a mag-fed deer rifle with optics. It will be your best-buy, at the moment.
I find .30-06 unnecessary(long-action), but .308, 7mm, 6mm, and related are all fine choices. Go to WallyWorld, and check the prices of a caliber you like and go from there. A 2x-whatever optic is a good choice, since at 2x, it can reasonably function as a dot-scope. 'Course, if you have a ready supply of .30-06, by all means!
If I was looking at a HD rifle, and didn't want to go with an AR, I'd be looking at something lever-action, probably .30-30.
Marlin 336 would probably be the way to go. However, Mossberg has come out with a new lever action (464) for a quite reasonable price.
You could, conceivably, get a .30-06 lever action (Browning BLR, Winchester 1895), but they cost more than most AR's.
You could look at a Remington 7600 pump-action .30-06; around here, they usually go for less than $400 used. IIRC, somebody made 10 & 20 round after-market magazines for them.

Full Product Description
If 'God is dead', then we spend an incredible amount of time talking about him. 'New atheists' like Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens have created a huge new interest in debating (and demolishing) the existence of God. But in this book the philosopher Mark Vernon takes a more nuanced approach, pulling together fascinating strands from philosophy, literature, science, theology and psychology. He argues that there is something odd about the way God is discussed today - as if the divine were being examined in a test tube, in a search for empirical and objective confirmation of his (or her?) existence. Yet for people of faith, today and through the ages, God is nothing if not subjectively real; they know God, insofar as they do, in their lives. It's more like the love of a parent than Newton's apple falling from the tree.

Hollywood turns up hype for Comic-Con
By John Gaudiosi
RALEIGH, North Carolina (Reuters) - Tens of thousands of pop culture fans will descend on the Comic-Con International event this week in San Diego that in recent years has changed from a convention of comic book lovers to a Hollywood movie bazaar.
Comic-Con begins its 40th year on Wednesday night with a preview of new comic books, graphic novels, science-fiction and action movies, television shows and videogames.
More than 125,000 people -- many dressed as their favorite comic superheroes, "Star Wars" or "Star Trek" characters and even "Ghostbusters" -- are expected to swarm the convention that runs through July 26. It's a far cry from the 300 comic book fans who first congregated at the U.S. Grant Hotel in 1970.
"Years ago, when Comic-Con was in its infancy, the attendees were 99 percent teenage fans," said comic book great Stan Lee, who will be showcasing a new Activision videogame "Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2" game at this year's convention.
"The Con was all about comic books, their artists, writers and editors. Today, it's still about comic books, but the major emphasis is on movies, TV shows and videogames ... It has become a huge 'entertainment' Con rather than just a comic book Con."
Several Hollywood movie studios will screen new films and host elaborate question-and-answer panels with actors and directors of major upcoming releases including Paramount Pictures' "Iron Man 2," Walt Disney Pictures' "Alice in Wonderland" and 20th Century Fox's "Avatar."
"I make movies for the 14 year-old in me, and I know they're going to dig this stuff," said "Titanic" director James Cameron, who unveils his highly anticipated new 3D sci-fi film, "Avatar" and Ubisoft's "James Cameron's Avatar" 3D videogame.
