Chrysler Repair Questions? Ask a Mechanic for Answers ASAP
Unfortunately there is not a reset perse for the system. It has to see a legitimate signal in order to operate. You can try to unhook the battery or disable the remote start temporarily to see if you can get it to start. Most likely the remote start did something to the anti-theft feature. You may have to make a trip to a dealer to have that system looked at. By the way, when you added the by-pass kit you needed a programmed, cut key to put in it. How did you accomplish that if it doesn't start?

Have a Tax Question? Ask a Tax Expert
Hi and welcome to Just Answer!If you have a separate business entity and you did not file for 501(c)(3) status for your entity - you may not claim tax exempt status - and all your income should be treated as taxable. Thus filing form 990 was not correct and that is why you receive a notice from the IRS.
You did not mention if your husband registered a separate business entity. If not - filing form 1120 would not be correct either. That form is for corporations. If you do not have a corporation - do not use this form.If your husband just owns the website - that doesn't create a separate taxing entity - and he should be considered as a self-employed person.Without 501(c)(3) status - all income will be included into gross business income for tax purposes - even you are receiving donations - that will be your gross business income.
The business income and expenses will be reported on the schedule C - http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040sc.pdf
The net income (after deductions)will be reported on the form 1040 line 12 - http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040.pdf
If the business has net income over $400, it may be required to file Schedule SE, Self-Employment Tax and net income is likely self-employment income and 15.3% self-employment tax would be required (13.3% in 2012).
Self-employment taxes from schedule SE will go to the form 1040 line 56 - http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040.pdf
Also - she will deduct half of self-employment taxes on the line 27.Generally - that all you needs. Please review all possible deductions - that might help to reduce income tax liability.
I'm having problems getting my reply to you. It is seperate business entity with it's own EIN number. Registered as a non profit corporation.
It should say hit enter to reply. I was trying to send my reply by hitting the reply button and it wasn't working
I will switch to Q&A mode - so it would be easier to communicate.Please refresh your screen.Sorry for technical issues.
Then - you are correct - if you registered a separate entity as a corporation - you need to use the form 1120. You still will treat all income as gross business income and deduct all qualified business expenses.You may only use 501(c)(3) status and file form 990 - if apply for that status and it was granted by the IRS.
Where are you now?
Nonprofit status is a state law concept. Nonprofit status may make an organization eligible for certain benefits, such as state sales, property and income tax exemptions. Although most federal tax-exempt organizations are nonprofit organizations, organizing as a nonprofit organization at the state level does not automatically grant the organization exemption from federal income tax. To qualify as exempt from federal income tax, an organization must meet requirements set forth in the Internal Revenue Code.
Hi, Thank you for your explanation and link to the website. That is exactly what I was looking for. I had searched the IRS website and could not come up with that - from the horse's mouth so to speak.
I have another question on a totally unrelated issue. Should I start another thread so you can bill me again or can you answer it for me here?

From Lake George in the Mammoth Lakes, take the Crystal Lake trail. This trail switchbacks steeply out of the Mammoth Lakes basin with nice views over the lakes and out to the Mammoth Crest. up to a cirque in between the Mammoth Crest and Crystal Crag. In this cirque lies lovely Crystal Lake. The trail ends at the lake, but a use trail continues to its southern end. Crystal Crag will be pretty obvious on your left side. Above you is the west face, which Secor says has a class 3 route up some ledges (we didn't see it). From the far end of Crystal Lake, head SE towards the saddle that forms the terminus of the obvious south ridge of the crag. This saddle separates the Crystal Lake drainages from that of neighboring TJ Lake.
Route Description
From the saddle, you have two choices. The first is to hug the south ridge the entire way. This ridge is, in spots, a super exposed knife-edge. I haven't found much information on this route, but at least one guide outfit rates it a 5.4 rockclimb. The more pedestrian route, yet still quite thrilling, is to follow the ridge as much as possible, but dropping below the ridge to climber's right (the east side) whenever the going on the ridge gets too gnarly. This route is a middle of the road class 3, with some nice exposure towards the top.
The actual summit is a diamond shaped block requiring some delicate balancing to get to. However, there are about 5 "sit-able" rocks about 2 feet lower than the main summit and only about 4 feet away.
Essential Gear
No essential gear required. If travelling in May or early June, bring skis or snowshoes for the approach.
Miscellaneous Info
If you have information about this route that doesn't pertain to any of the other sections, please add it here.

I was going to lunch today and was behind an Outback in traffic. Eventually I came up around and the kid must of seen me in the rear view because he was waving like crazy when I was alongside. It was really cool, he was genuinely excited. It was infectious cos I was waving and grinning like an idiot lol.
A few other times I've seen wrx drivers they've waved or flashed a thumbs up.
That never happened with the RX8 I guess RX8 owners aren't so friendly (except me of course).

Thanks for the help..
I had the SAME sound before I did my OFHG, belts, hoses, pulleys, hydraulic tensioner upgrade, Water Pump,...
After the install of all of this, I had the SAME sound coming from the same area you mention (i.e. DISA, intake area). I was hoping the above items would fix it but it didn't. So in this case, the pulleys aren't making the sound. In addition, the alternator wasnt causing the noise either.
My next step will be to look into the DISA and possibly the ICV to see if those 2 things are functioning properly. I'm hoping one of those 2 devices is causing this "grating, irritating" noise. I will also check for the lower intake elbow for leaks. The upper one looked solid with no holes.
My question to everyone else is:
is there anyway the CCV be contributing to this noise?
I would think a hole in the CCV tubing, which is under some kind of pressure due to engine pressure could make this sound.
BTW, my idle is right on - 650-750 with no issue with it.

" Health and Beauty "
* Prices may differ from that shown
In my stocking last Christmas, I recieved a small envelope in which looked quite intrueging. Inside the envelope was a subscription to one of my favourite magazines "_TOP SANTE_.Top Sante is, in my eyes classed as a "Special Magazine" and so I was pleased to recieve this gift as it meant I wouldn't have to splash out every month.
The name Top Sante, comes from the french word "health". This indicates before you even read the magazine, that the contents will mainly be health related. My mum has been buying these magazines for 4 or 5 years and had saved up most of them. So you can imagine my delight when I came across a huge pile of them in one of my mum's drawers!
Top Sante is a magazine which comes out monthy, normally on the 1st or 2nd day of the month. The magazine contains roughly around 140 pages, and each page is jam-packed full of lots of information and stories.
My review, is going to based on the issue from this month- June 2008.
==The Front Cover==
The front cover of Top Sante is very appealing and definitly stands out among other magasines. The cover is a "glossy", thus giving us the impression the magazine is something extra special! In every issue, TOP SANTE is written in the top left hand corner. Underneath, the magazine name, it stats "Feel, Look and Live Your Best". Under this the issue and the price is printed in small writing, barely visible. The cost of this issue, and most other ones too is £2.80. Though on subscription it works out cheaper. On every issue there is a large picture of a celebrity on the front. On this particular one, the picture is of Amanda Holden. Almost every celebrity ever on the front cover is wearing something red, and this is no different. The front cover gives quite a fair bit of information of what is included inside. Some of the things mentioned on the cover are ''Shrink Your Tummy Special", "15 ways to get fit and happy", "Got A food hangover? How to bounce back from a blowout". These are among many other things. Also on the front an offer is placed, for 50% off St Tropez. Goodies. Overall I think the cover is very appealing and looks promising!
==The contents page==
Opening up my newly bought mag, I have to flick through a few pages of advertisment and "Editors note" to arrive at the contents. The contents of first look, looks very full. It is split up into sections, allowing it easier to read and to find what you are looking for. The contents sub-catogries are "Feel Younger, Look Younger, Features this month, Live Younger & In Every issue". Underneath each catogrey is a list of the pages and a small description of each. For example, in the "In Every Issue" one of the pages stated is "The Health Clinic, and under this it says "Your most embarrassing questions answered". Another example is in the "Features this month" one of the pages listed is "Can You make friends for food", then stating "_Leah Hardy_ wonders if its really possible to strike a healthy balance". All in all I think the contents is very clear and easy to understand. And some nice pictures make it all the more attractive.
Top Sante, really is jam-packed full of different things!! There are obviously too many to list, however I will name some of them; 8 things you have to do this month, Inspiring stories- eg Weight loss, Food news, Calorie Gallery, Anti-ageing news, Interviews, Your questions asnwered, 20 secrets (the secrets change every month, this month is 20 Hypnotherapist secrets), Agony aunt pages, Special features (this month is Shrink your tum fast, some other examples are Cellulite special!), Recipes, mealplans, holiday retreats and much more.
Most issues come with this page at the very begginning, basically it is what it says in the title. 8 things you are reccomended to do this month. These may include things to buy, foods to try and places to go. This month the eight are as follows; 1. Summer up your undies. 2.Donate your memories. 3. Brush to beat ticker trouble. 4. Get him cooking. 5. Fake paradise. 6. Avoid half-term holiday bugs 7. Grab your girlfriends 8. Ask him to wash up.
The titles are all kind of written in riddles to be honest, but underneath each one is a description of what they really mean. For example, number 3 "beat the ticker trouble", really means Brush and floss your teeth etc at _least_ twice a day.
I think this is a really good feature because it gives you some ideas about what you need to work towards in the up-coming weeks!
The calorie gallery is extremely useful for people who are trying to watch/lose their weight. The calorie gallery is usually 2 pages, however sometimes it can be up to 8 pages, of food swaps, to save calories. Each issue has a theme, this one being "Teatime treats". Some of the other themes in previous issues have been "Christmas foods", "Foreign food", "Fast foods" among lots more! The magazine supplies food swaps for things related to the theme. For example, being teatime treats, we are given information and swaps for things such as scones with spreads, Tarts, Eclairs, Sandwiches, Slices, Wraps and pastries. Each swap has two pictures with it, of the glorious looking foods they are advising you swap for.
More often than not, the calorie-ladden, higher fat foods, pictures look alot nicer and alot more appealing than the lower fat alternative.
The top sante clinic is usually four or five pages full of questions and answers. Each page is a different "theme". In top sante, the different topics are "The natural clinic", "The gynae clinic", "The health clinic" and "The sex clinic". A different expert is suited to each different topic, the four experts being Dr. Miriam Stoppard, Dr Ali, Dr Maggie Blott and Dr Kate Saffin.
I think these are really helpful and both my mum and I can often relate to some of the problems and diffiuclties voiced. For example in the health clinic, somebody may ask about what is causing there attacks or hot flushes, or things like "am i dehydrated?".
I think this is a really helpful feature, and is definitly not a waste of four to five pages!!
In every issue, there are various recipes and delicious things for you to try out at home.
The recipes included in this issue are, Grilled Prawns, Brushcette, Moroccon Orange salad, Seared swordfish steaks, and Strawberrys in primitivo with vanilla.
Sometimes there is a theme to the recipes given, for example at christmas there will more often than not, be recipes for cooking your turkey to perfection, gorgeous roast potatoes, and a delicious christmas cake. Around bonfire night there will most likely be recipes for warming, family dishes such as mice & 'tatties. The theme in this months issue was "Go Mediterranean". I think they did a pretty good job of supplying delicious recipes, and I may try the Brushcette one out as it sounds scrumptious!!
All in all this is a spectacular magazine.
There are an extremely large amount of pro's to the magazine, however one of the very few con's I can find about it, is that, in every single issue without fail, at the back of the magazine, are 8-10 pages of adverts for various things, such as slimming clubs, beauty products, holidays like spa breaks etc. I find this is a waste of 10 pages and could be used for far more helpful things.
Putting this aside however I can thoroughly reccomend buying this magazine as I feel it is definitly worth the £2.80 you will have to cough up.
Top Sante is available quite widely. In most magazine sections in supermarkets, and in shops suchas WH Smith. They are rarely found however, in small newsagents and garage shops!

Also under the same name on ciao!
Allow me to paint a picture. of where i am at the moment. I am sat at work, In the control room, taking the odd occasional phone call and in my bored moments i am flicking through this months edition of top sante. purchased in a moment of frivolity 2 days ago, and as yet i've not had chance to read it.
I'm greeted with the a-typical glossy magazine cover featuring further a-typical grinning female. the even more a-typical headlines gracing the cover scream at me "lose three dress sizes... by WALKING!" and "shift that cellulite!" before venturing inside I am already hoping that this isnt a magazine for females looking for the quick fix weight loss or beautifying that lasts minutes and not days or weeks.
So lets take a walk through the interior pages...
Already things are looking much more promising than the cover initially conveys, with the contents pages revealing health and wellbeing, medical issues and how blogging can be beneficial to your mental health. AND reading through further, an article on vegetarian diets!! woohoo!! it is a pet peeve of mine that any and all slimming diets in all magazines are based around chicken and fish, and then chicken, and once they've suggested that they may if your lucky suggest chicken again!! This is looking promising!!
Ignoring the filler pages i go straight to and read the main articles within the magazine. and i have to say i am very pleasantly surprised. Extremely well written and informative articles abound, packed with case studies to back up teh advice given and short and snappy self help tips integrated within each article. The case studies help to identify with the fact that real women, members of the public like us, not stick-thin-paid-a-mint-to-say-it models, that have managed to change their life/weight/health for the better.
My main fear with magazines such as this is that usually they are packed with adverts. At the moment this is not the case. yes there are some, sparsely placed throughout the magazine, leading me to feel that this magazine is definately value for money. The thought of purchasing the magazine again is certainly confirming itself as a possibility.
I've just come to the article previously mentioned of "loose 3 dress sizes by walking!" and i have to say that headline does this article no favours, Instead of the usual posing celebrity boasting at their miracle weight loss, the article details country walks, city walks, walks in your lunch hour and general ways to get active! it further goes on to mention the mental and physical benefits that a quiet contemplative stroll can accomplish for mind and body alike. (and my favourite bit, they advocate recruiting a neighbouring fido to accompany you! That wins this mag serious brownie points on my part! ) The veggie article has me sat here wishing that my shift was over so i can leg it home to savour some of the recepies, the miso broth with rice noodles looks particularly appetising for my tea!
The remainder of the magazine is chock full with health tips, recepies, miracle creams and the usual problem pages.. out of 148 pages (including covers) only 43 of these are full page adverts. Meaning 105 pages of article, readers offers, money off coupons etc. At a reasonable price of £2.80 this puts the likes of runners world (£3.55) and other ladies magazines to shame, pound for pound. The subscription page details their current offer of 12 issues for £12! a bargain price of £1 per issue!! most certainly worth the money!!
Closing the back cover i feel pleased with my purchase, after a quick browse i am now looking forward to settling down once home with a nice cup of tea and having a good read of a good magazine.
___Top sante___
Top sante is a magazine with health and beauty tips.This isn't normally something i would read but someone else in my household bought it and i needed something to read on the train.
Each magazine has a celebrity on the front and how their life is now better.In the current one Denise Van outen is on the front and the article talks about how busy her life was and how much better she is feeling now.The celebrity is usually quite well known unlike other magazines when it says read about so and so and you have never heard of them.
The magazine contains loads of helpful hints and tips, i particularly liked an article in the current issue that explains the best way to create dramatic eyes-its not something i was good at but nowi feel more confident mixing eyeshadows with each other.
There always is some real life stories in this such as how losing weight gave someone more confidence.
There isn't a lot of adverts in this and they are mostly at the end which is another thing i like about this.Nothing more annoying than a magazine that seems to be 60% adverts.
Overall worth reading especially because i dont have to buy it because my sister gets it!!
****Top Sante - Feel,look and live your best****
Top sante is a health and beauty magazine- In my opinion the best one out!!!. It frequently has free gifts and sign up offers that are more expensive than the magazine. The sign up offer i got was worth £35,i got piggypoints and i am only paying £26 for a years worth of magazines!!
The current price is £2.80 and i think that this is good value(even if its not what i am paying)The magazine comes out monthly.
The magazine is made up 7 "experts" who are extremely knowledgeable about their areas so you can be sure the information you are getting is accurate
Each magazine contains articles such as healthy eating plans,switching food you like for lower fat "similar" versions ,question and answer pages... Okay so this is in loads of magazines but i like the way this one is set out .
It also has real life stories in it which i think is good.a recent article was about a women's experience with yo yo dieting and how she decided to get a gastric band.The magazine often explains procedures/operations in such a way that it is very easy to understand.
Top Sante is a monthly health and beauty magazine, published by EMAP Élan, which retails at £2.It is an excellent publication, with just the right balance between articles on health and articles on beauty and personal care. The magazine's philosophy is that to look and feel beautiful you have to first be fit and healthy. This "holistic" approach is in line with most modern thinking. The advice given in the magazine is reliable as many of the regular contributors are medically qualified, although the advice is never patronising. The Team There are currently three practising GPs who contribute to Top Sante – Dr Sarah Brewer, Dr Rob Hicks and Dr Carol Cooper.Together they write a regular page called "In The Surgery", where readers can write in for advice. (This is not intended, of course, to replace a visit to your own GP.) Other medical experts include Dr Brian Pigott, a former GP, Dr Lesley Walker, who is Head of science information at the Cancer Research Campaign, Professor Stephen Palmer, a psychologist, Dr Jacinta Yeo, a private dentist with a practice in Harley Street and Jayney Goddard, president of the Complementary Medical Association. Beauty experts include Bobbi Brown, the well-known make-up artist, the well-respected Bharti Vyas who specialises in holistic beauty therapy, Jo Hansford, a leading hair stylist and Rachael Anne Hill, a fitness instructor and lecturer. The magazine's own editor, Juliette Kellow, is a state-registered dietician and often writes articles herself. So you will see that with their wealth of expertise, the team offer sound and reliable advice on all matters of health and beauty. I am especially pleased that alternative medicine is not ignored, as I am very interested in herbal and homeopathic remedies. Sexual health is discussed, as is emotional health, both subjects being treated with sensitivity. There are no taboos, and
all topics are discussed frankly and with a refreshing degree of openness. Each month there is a healthy eating guide, not as boring as it sounds, and you might be surprised at just how many of the foods you love can come under the "healthy" label (even chocolate...yippee!) Top Sante never preaches or forbids certain foods. Actually, some of the recipes for healthy eating are so mouthwatering, you could be forgiven for forgetting that they are good for you. This month's issue features comfort food for winter months, such as Roast lemon Chicken with potato wedges, sausage and mash with spicy gravy and cheese and leek jackets. Mmm. The beauty sections contain advice on exercise, skin care and make-up tips. My only gripe is that some of the products reviewed can be rather expensive, and probably out of many readers' price ranges. I have seen face creams advertised which cost twenty to thirty pounds. Now, there is no way that I could afford such products, but I still like to look good. I would like to see a regular budget section introduced. I see in this month's issue that there is a feature on the best beauty buys for under a fiver – I do hope that this becomes a regular item. However, each month you can have a go at winning some goodies featured in the magazine. It's easy – just decide which item you would like to win and either ring the telephone number given or drop a postcard in. Yes, it is a draw and you have to hope you are lucky…but.. I did once win a jar of L'Oreal Plenitude facecream, which arrived soon after the closing date. So people do win (I was sceptical, too!) My best prize to date, though, was when I recently had a letter published as the Letter of the Month and my fantastic prize was a selection of goodies from the Elizabeth Arden Green Tea range. There are frequently some great give-aways from Top Sante.One of my favourites was an eye-gel mask,
which you cool in the fridge then place over your closed eyes to soothe and refresh (also great if you have a headache.) Another favourite was a CD of relaxing music, which I use quite often when I'm feeling stressed. This month, as you might expect, the freebie is two little diet and exercise books to put right the damage done over Christmas.Next month's freebie looks good too…three mood candles. There are quite a fair amount of adverts in the magazine, some of them full page, but then you get that in most publications. The final few pages in the magazine are devoted to adverts, and, if I'm honest, I usually skip these. But I suppose these ads do keep the cover price down. I don't mind the ads for vitamins as I often spot a product I would like to try. The same goes for ads for healthy food products which are new on the market. I'm not too interested in ads for top clinics offering expensive cosmetic surgery. One of my favourite articles is towards the back of the mag, where readers can write in anonymously with their health worries, and other readers who may have had the same worries can write back with advice. They say that a trouble shared is a trouble halved, don't they? I did once reply to a girl who was desperate to lose weight. I don't know if my reply helped her;I hope it did. If you want to, you can also take out a subscription and the magazine will be delivered to your home each month. There is usually an incentive to do this. As well as paying a reduced price over twelve issues, you also get a nice beauty treat .I haven't taken out a subscription as my local newsagent saves my copy every month and I don't want to take his business away (see how kind-hearted I am?) I've been reading Top Sante for a couple of years now, and usually file away past issues for future reference, or pass them on to friends. I suppose it's quite feasible that c
ertain topics are repeated once in a while. However, by the time they come around again, I have either forgotten about them, or there have been new advances which means the topic needs to be updated anyway. Top Sante is the only monthly magazine I buy these days so I don't begrudge paying a couple of quid for it. It's my treat, and better for me than a bar of choccy. I really enjoy the mag, with or without freebies (with is better!) Try Top Sante – I think you'll enjoy it too.
Never in my wildest nightmares did I ever imagine that one day I would be writing an opinion on what is basically a "girly" magazine. But that day has come and no I have not flipped or had a sex change or anything like that. I was attracted to the magazine for one reason only. A few days ago I read an excellent opinion on Top Sante Health and Beauty that came with an audio CD in the September issue. This CD is a compilation of 15 tracks of mood music to relax to. I have never had any problems relaxing when wanting to, even in the noisiest of places (like a warship with all guns blazing) so the reader may wonder why I wanted such a CD. I was interested in the country and sea sound effects as a source for a project that I have in mind. It was claimed that the CD is worth £9.99 so paying £2.00 for a magazine seemed like a bargain especially as I can give it to my daughter-in-law and notch up another rare star with her. I know that the reader wants to know all about the magazine but if you just bear with me for a while, I'll do my best on that score. But first the CD. Well it is the reason why I bought the magazine. Longshore – A moody tune with a background of waves breaking on the seashore. Forest Dawn – A tinkling tune with the sounds of birds greeting the dawn. The Meadow – A chorus of spring birds accompanied by a symphony of piano sounds. Seagull Serenade – Seagulls calling to a steady rhythm. Paradise Garden – Birds chirping and orchestral music. What did you expect? The Swan – Conjures up visions of a lazy swan on a summer's day. Swirling Seas – Slow soothing sound of the tide coming in. Sunlight Rhapsody – Rhapsody of insects chirping. The Mandrin – A Chinese feel with birds but not an orange in site or sound. Undercurrent – Breaking waves again. Butterfly Breeze – Insects yes but no butterflies. <
br>The Cycle – Those birds get everywhere. Water Echoes – The sounds of the sea with echoing voices. Twilight Haze – Without the music it would be like being in the jungle at twilight time. The Tiger – Indian feel with those damned birds again. The music is composed and played by Van Christo. I can find something of use on this CD but the music as a whole is boring and would send anyone to sleep but that's not the same as relaxing. OK then, the magazine. It is glossy with 130 pages of all things to do with health and beauty with loads of adverts thrown in extolling the virtues of anti ageing creams and the like. There is the obligatory "letters" page where readers can write in and say their piece and a page where readers can have their diet questions answered. I was surprised to find that there was not an "Agony Aunt" column, or at least it was not in the index and I wasn't going to trawl through all the pages to find out. Come on! Let's be reasonable, this IS a "girly" magazine with an opinion written by a feller. If you really want to know about the magazine and don't fancy forking out two quid then go and read Xxxxx's excellent opinion as she does a much better job than me. Can't name the writer 'cos that would be touting for reads on her behalf and that, to me, is no different to quoting my own userID for referrals. You'll find the opinion without my help anyway. That's it! That's all you get on the magazine so if you want to rate the opinion NU then be my guest although for the CD bit alone it is surely worth at least an SU. I still get the 5p though. Must dash as the film The Cruel Sea is on in a minute and I never tire of watching it. Hueeeey!
Every Thursday I pop along to WHS for a couple of magazines. Normally I buy Chat and Take a Break and on the odd occasion I buy Top Sante. I do have good intentions of getting myself healthy one day, so buying this magazine always puts me in the mood for a right good workout/diet etc. The September issue cost me £2.00 and with that I got a free CD worth 20p, no seriously I don't know about that. It's an Ultimate Relaxation CD with music for you to chill out with. I put it into my CD Rom drive whilst I was writing an op and nearly fell asleep . There are 15 tracks consisting of, Forest Dawn, The Swan, Water Echoes. The first two were very relaxing, there were the sounds of nature, birds tweeting, waters flowing. After the first few songs, they all started to sound the same. Oh well at least it was for free. The magazine itself has had a new look to it, it's all glossy and very colourful. The headlines "Look and feel young forever" attracted me seeing as though Iam nearly reaching the BIG 40. I quickly turned to the article on page 61 and scanned for some miracle tips. Basically I was unimpressed, there was just a load of bumff about a professors verdict. What they probably meant was to have a face lift, no thanks it hasn't quite dropped just yet!! I suppose there were some good tips on "50 ways to relax". I liked number 14, it said to eat an Orange and the Vitamin C will lower stress hormones. I get stressed trying to peel an Orange. Also number 8 tip was to Fantasise, it said to close your eyes, breathe slowly and think of something you would like to happen, bloomin heck I do that every night lol. On page 36 it shows you how to correctly measure yourself for a bra, it says "Is your Bra damaging your health". Mine was, the wired bone popped out and stabbed me in the titty the other day, I must go and get a new one. I mu
st admit, nearly all women wear the wrong size bras. I know I do, I keep thinking my bust size is going bigger, what it really is I think, is my back is getting bigger through days of stuffing my face with choccie yum yum. I like the In the Surgery section, here there is always an article on a health problem, this month it's about Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. I read that and found out I must have that problem myself. It's an injury to the hand, for years I always thought I had RSI, repetitive strain injury, I get tingling sensations in my fingers and my hands hurt sometimes. I found it worse when I worked as a sweing machinist and had to wear a support bandage. On the same page you can write in with your health problems and get a reply from a Doctor. There are lots of adverts featuring the latest shampoo or cleanser in this magazine and normally it is a good read. This month though I was slightly disappointed, there wasn't a good choice of interesting articles to read. I only buy it every few months, so I will see what the next one brings. Ah well back to the birdie CD. ZZZZZZZZZ.
Along with Here's Health, Top Sante is, in my opinion, the best news stand health magazine. If you are interested in a really broad range of health and fitness issues this title is a 'must have'. What is so great about Top Sante is the wide range of topics you'll find in every issue; Complimentary / alternative health, womens issues, healthy eating, hair and skin etc and along with the feature articles there are lots of regular column features including diet, beauty, wellbeing, relationships, celebrities etc. Every issue is packed with top class articles by the best health and fitness writers around. The current issue has articles on anorexia and bullemia, treating psoriasis, surviving the Southall rail crash, secrets of the dead sea, cloning, how to survive a long haul flight, the life of an environmental health officer ... and there's lots , LOTS more inside. I am shortly going to send off for some of the freebies they are giving away this time, including skincare kits, aromatherapy products and nail kits. The ratio of reading to adverts is excellent and there is so much *relevant* content, this magazine could have been written just for me. Therefore as I'm your average UK woman I'm certain there will be many features here to appeal to many others. AND IT'S ONLY £2! Thumbs up Top Sante!
I have read the Health Magazine Top Sante, for over a year now and I find it very easy to read and very useful with it wide range of articles. I read the magazine from cover to cover. The magazine covers reviews on Make up, Cosmetics and articles on Health, Fitness, and Ailments. You can write in and ask for readers experiences on problems which you are having. There is also a prize crozzle for you to win a break away. There are always very useful healthy recipes. They have a section called Complementary World, where they review alternative therapies and natural solutions.
Top Sante is a great read and isn't as sanctimonious as the other health magazines on the market. A lot of health magazines seem to be aimed at young, single, well-off women who spend hours in the gym. Top Sante is aimed at more 'normal' women and there are articles aimed at different age groups. The magazine is divided into sections on health/medical concerns, beauty and fitness. The exercise pages don't assume that the reader can afford expensive equipment and the health pages are easy to understand. There are a lot of mini articles and titbits in Top Sante which mean that it is great for long bus journeys. It does have a cheaper look than the other health magazines on the market though. The articles are not always that indepth, but there are always suggestions for further reading. The competitions are also great!
Yes, top sante is easy to read... in fact, i think it is too easy. I find that all of the articles are quite vague and never go into enough depth. It is all very well serving as an introduction to areas of health and beaty such as different types of holistic health, but i think that maybe they should dedicate more of the magazine to a new topic each time, rather than just one article. this way we could learn more than just the basics. I think that top sante has a broad appeal to all age ranges and most interests within health and beauty. Top sante is one of the cheaper health magazines and the subscription rates always look to be good offers but they have never managed to tempt me. The best aspect of top sante is their competitions and the giveaway pages. There are loads of interesting products to win, and i have won several things from them. All in all, i find this magazine good value for money but if i really wanted to find out about a specific area of health and beauty, i'd look at a specialist mag or book.
As a glossy magazine, it's quite expensive. It does tend to repeat itself, so I would not recommend a 12-month subscription. But it's good to dip into now and then. It reminds me how much water I should be drinking, that I should really be taking the stairs rather than catching the lift and it does to special issues that, depending on the issue, are really useful to many readers. I like the educational sections – they've recently run reports on epilepsy, which is good for general awareness of the condition. Thumbs up really, but too many editions and you may feel guilty about stepping outside your front door in anything less than a hermetically sealed plastic bubble! It also seems to have jumped on the vitamin and supplement band wagon. If you bought every vitamin and supplement that it says you need, you would have nowhere to put them and they would bankrupt you. I fully support the use of supplements but it has to be sensible. Top Sante seem to recommend everything to everyone. This magazine also seems to assume a certain readership and that they have prior knowledge of many things. Even though it runs educational articles that start from the most basic level, on the following page they 'drop' in a paragraph about endomorphins and lactic acid - not easy reading for everyone. It's not a bad magazine, bnut don't be too influenced by it!
Top Sante is lively and easy to read magazine. It achieves this whilst not putting off the older (well over 30) audience too much. It is full of health and fitness articles that look at their subjects with a fresh perspective. It is not all about calorie counted diets and face packs, but looks to give advice in an interest, holistic way, that a reader can dip into and be better for. The reading is light and easy as well interesting and worth dipping into if you have any interest in the area. There are also different competitions or prize draws in the magazine as well as special reader offers.

The Dacha* - a modern, beautiful 2-story home located on Bandon's famous Beach Loop Drive - combines sleek contemporary style and comfort with the privacy of a coastal forest and white-water ocean views. With expansive open-concept living, dining and kitchen areas on the second floor, connected to a large deck with barbecue, The Dacha is great for entertaining and family gatherings. The huge secluded and wind-protected backyard can be used for receptions, outdoor sports, or just lounging in the deck chairs below the tree tops. The Dacha is fully equipped with flat screen TVs with extensive cable selections, wireless internet, stereo, and has 2 living areas, one upstairs and one on the first floor. With four bedrooms, The Dacha is an excellent choice for golf foursomes and has special equipment to keep golf gear dry and off the floor.
The Dacha's fully equipped, large gourmet kitchen - with new granite counters, stainless steel appliances and plenty of cabinet and countertop space - has bar seating as well as a separate breakfast nook. All linens and towels are provided and stored in a roomy custom-made linen cabinet.
A fully renovated house, The Dacha has many green features, including bamboo floors in all the bedrooms, use of no or low VOC finishes on all walls and cabinetry, non-toxic finishes on all tile, including the beautiful slate floor downstairs, and use of green cleaning products.
*A Russian word for country home, 'dacha' (rhymes with cha-cha) conjures images of relaxing days and evenings with family and friends far from the city's hectic life. The Dacha has touches of old world Russian charm that bring the house to life.
Keywords: House
I discovered the beauty of Bandon, Oregon, in 2004, when I traveled west to visit family. After more than a decade living and working in Moscow, Russia, I wanted to have some roots in the US and a place for family and friends to visit. I bought some land and built a house on the ocean in 2006, commuting to Bandon from downtown Manhattan, where I was working in financial services after returning from Russia, to oversee construction. In the spring of 2008, I abandoned city life for good and moved to Bandon to live full time. Later that year, I purchased a foreclosure - a diamond in the rough with great ocean views - and undertook a full renovation of the house and lot, working to incorporate as many green features as possible. I am particularly interested in green building and look forward to more projects to help with the 'greening' of Bandon.
The Owner purchased this house in 2008
Bandon is developing a first-rate infrastructure for golfers, families and all kinds of visitors. The spectacular golf courses at Bandon Dunes have brought new investment to the area, convenient non-stop flights from San Francisco and Portland, and more awareness of what the town has to offer. The beauty of Bandon's beaches is really unparalleled and prestigious Beach Loop Drive, where my vacation rental, The Dacha, is located loops and winds around some of the most breathtaking ocean views I've ever seen. I bought my vacation rental property as a long-term investment and hope it will provide lasting and wonderful memories of Bandon to all of its visitors.
From the Dacha, you can walk to the beach (3 minutes), go next door to play golf at Bandon's in-town 9-hole course, Old Bandon Golf Links, or dine at Bandon Bill's, a full service bar and restaurant with stunning ocean views that's also next door at the Best Western hotel, The Inn at Face Rock. Horseback riding on the beach is a short walk. Everything else - Bandon's Old Town, Bandon Dunes and Bandon Crossings golf courses - is a few minutes drive.
House was amazing. Well stocked with anything you would need such as garbage sacks, paper towels and soap for laundry and dishes. If i could change anything it would be to have a couch or something like that down stairs for kids to watch movies and a bigger couch for people to watch movies upstairs. Had an amazing time. House is roomy and beautifully decorated.
It was a great house for 8 women. Lot's of room and privacy. The only complaint was that the fireplace wasn't working. Other than that, it served us well. Great views off the spacious deck.
I brought my wife and daughter's family with a toddler. We enjoyed the short walk to the beach and the ocean view from the upper floor and deck. The kitchen is very well stocked and all of the appliances worked well and were of very high quality. Managers were very helpful and responsive before and during the stay. Four bedrooms, two large TV's were a plus. If perfect, maybe a queen bed instead of a double downstairs and faster internet (that may just be the local service). Would be a superb "golfing buddy" place with all of the single beds. Heating system worked perfectly.
This contemporary styled interior is such a surprise when viewing the weathered home outside...a hidden gem! An open, airy, comfortable home with an updated kitchen for cooking-- and fun dining (table for 8)-- Dacha is a spot for family & friend entertaining and autumnal relaxing.
Part of our adult group of seven (ages 31-68) golfed at Bandon Dunes, while the rest walked on the beach, shopped, played tourists, and cooked. The home is not on the beach but has a good view of the wave action (so you don't get the roar), and nearby beach access. ( We did not use yard/bbq.)
The owners have thoughtfully provided quality functional furnishings, very comfortable bedding, and a well-equiped kitchen. And it was very clean... with green cleaning products used throughout. Managers were very helpful and quick to reply to my questions. Great getaway!
We were in town for a wedding that was being held around the area. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Dacha. The owners accommodated an early check in which enabled the toddlers to get a nap in before the wedding rehearsal.
With the closeness of the property to the beach, we were able to squeeze in a trip to the beautiful beach before all the wedding festivities.
We enjoyed the openness of this updated house.
It was a very comfortable stay for us. We were three couples with 3 children.
The house was as beautiful as it looks in the pictures - spacious open floor plan, lots of light, cozy corners for reading, a beautiful kitchen. The views were indeed wonderful since the ocean can be seen very nicely from the second floor. It was clean, in short walking distance to the beach, and very quiet. There were plenty of towels for the 5 of us and even small shampoo and soap packets.
The reason we only give it 3 stars is that the owners seemed somewhat abrupt if not even a bit unfriendly during the whole reservation process. This, combined with the warnings throughout the house, gave us the impression that we weren't really welcome. Also, the kitchen was poorly stocked if you actually wanted to cook in it. The only spices we could find were salt and pepper, no oil or vinegar or anything else. Furthermore, we only saw 8 beds in the house even though we had originally booked it for 9 people (the other family had to cancel on very short notice). And even though it has 3 bathrooms, the shower head in the downstairs bathroom is so low that it would have been uncomfortable to use for anybody over 5' tall.
Overall, we'd give the dacha a 3.5 rating - better than fair but not as good as others.
Bandon's Face Rock Creamery opened in 2013. Try the award-winning vampire slayer and cheddar cheeses and curds. On Fridays and Saturdays, visit the Farmers' Market on the wharf. Washed Ashore, in the Harbortown Events Center in Old Town Bandon, displays beautiful sculptures made from ocean trash. Kids and adults are welcome to help build sculptures. In September 2013 Bandon welcomed Foley's Irish Pub in Old Town to its growing list of good restaurants.

It is common to not get enough sleep at night. No matter the reason, this loss of sleep can have important consequences on health. How does sleep deprivation cause hormone changes in the body? Learn about some of the potential impacts of inadequate sleep on your endocrine system.

A Word on Hormones

First, it is important to understand a little about the vital role of hormones within the body. These chemical messengers serve a key function in nearly every major process of our body, holding influence over everything from growth to metabolism to reproduction. These various hormones and the glands that secrete them are collectively called the endocrine system. Many hormones are ultimately controlled by structures within the brain, including the master control called the pituitary gland. When disrupted, there can be important changes that occur in the body.

Inadequate Sleep and Hormone Changes

Hormones can be highly influenced by the natural pattern of light and darkness and by the presence or absence of sleep. Variations in hormone levels can be measured with consistent patterns from day to day. Many of our body's processes are linked to this timing through the circadian rhythm, controlled via the suprachiasmatic nucleus, an area within the hypothalamus of the brain. The hypothalamus is important in regulating body temperature, appetite, and energy use. When the hypothalamus is disturbed by sleep deprivation, other systems of the body are impacted.

There is a lot of research that supports the association between sleep deprivation and disrupted metabolism. In 1999, it was noted that when subjects were restricted to 4 hours of sleep per night for one week that their metabolism changed. There was impaired glucose tolerance, a marker of insulin resistance that predisposes to diabetes, and changes in hormones linked to weight gain and hypertension. Fortunately, the changes were reversible with a return to normal sleep times.

In 2004, researchers found that sleep restriction changes hormones that regulate hunger and appetite. In particular the hormone leptin, which importantly suppresses appetite, decreased by 18%. An associated hormone called ghrelin, which normally increases appetite, increased by 28%. The subjects were also noted to more likely select calorie-dense foods with high carbohydrate content as a result. (Think about the foods you might choose when you aren't sleeping enough and you want to feel better with a treat.) These changes may lead to weight gain.

These effects are not limited to adults, unfortunately. In 2005, the British Medical Journal reported that short sleep duration at 30 months predicts obesity at 7 years in children. This suggests that poor sleep may have a permanent impact on the hypothalamus, influencing long-term appetite and energy expenditure.

In addition, inadequate sleep at night may reduce slow-wave sleep among children. It is during this stage of sleep that growth hormone is normally released. Therefore, inadequate slow-wave sleep may impact growth, a consequence that is also seen when sleep apnea fragments this sleep in children.

Prolonged wakefulness in both children and adults may affect the thyroid gland. Inadequate time spent sleeping seems to increase thyroid hormone release, with increased energy needs raising work demands.

Which Hormones Are Not Affected by Sleep Deprivation?

Fortunately, there are many other hormones that are seemingly not affected by sleep deprivation. These include many of the sex hormones. The full list of hormones not affected by too little sleep include:

Cortisol (stress hormone)

Adrenaline (also called epinephrine, the fight-or-flight response hormone)

Catecholamines (including epinephrine and norepinephrine)

Luteinizing Hormone (stimulates ovary and testicle function)

Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (stimulates ovary and testicle function)

Testosterone (stimulates sperm production in men)

Progesterone (promotes conditions for pregnancy in women)

In order to prevent the adverse effects of sleep deprivation, make sure you understand your individual sleep needs and try to obtain adequate rest on a nightly basis. If you are struggling with insomnia or your sleep seems to be of poor quality, get checked out by a sleep specialist to ensure you don't require treatment to get the sleep you and your body need.

Rupee at nearly 3-month high, up 53.80 vs dollar
The rupee on Tuesday gained 45 paise to end at nearly three-month high of 53.80 against the American currency on persistent selling of dollars by banks and exporters on the back of sustained capital inflows from foreign funds.
Mumbai: The rupee on Tuesday gained 45 paise to end at nearly three-month high of 53.80 against the American currency on persistent selling of dollars by banks and exporters on the back of sustained capital inflows from foreign funds.
Extending gains for the second consecutive day, the domestic currency ended at 53.80 per dollar, showing a gain of 45 paise, or 0.82 percent. The rupee had last ended at 53.50 on February 8, 2013.
The rupee resumed higher at 54.12 per dollar as against the last closing level of 54.25 per dollar at the Interbank Foreign Exchange (Forex) Market and hovered in a range of 53.79 per dollar and 54.25 per dollar before ending at 53.80 a dollar.
Persistent capital inflows from foreign funds mainly boosted the rupee value against the dollar, a forex dealer said.
Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) bought shares worth a net Rs 620.38 crore yesterday as per provisional data from the stock exchanges.
The Indian benchmark Sensex rose by 117 points or 0.60 percent to end at 19,504.18.
Pramit Brahmbhatt, CEO, Alpari Financial Services (India) said USD/INR Pair continued to trade high for the second day taking cues from the dollar which traded weak against the major currencies mainly against the yen.
The RBI is likely to cut interest rates for the third time this year by 0.25 percent as fall in inflation is expected to lift the economy from its lowest growth in a decade.
However, in London, the euro fell in their early trade after weak economic data gave further weight to expectations of an interest rate cut by the European Central Bank later this week.
Losses in the euro are likely to be limited on prospects the US Federal Reserve's ultra-loose policy will be maintained and weigh on the dollar.
In Los Angeles, the Japanese yen moved between small gains and losses against the US dollar in the wake of mixed data from the major export economy.
The premium for the forward dollar declined further due to sustained receipts by exporters.
"The Indian rupee was seen getting stronger against the US dollar. The gains in rupee were attributed to the speech of the Finance Minister where he said they will be making some amendments to the Finance bill so as to attract more fund flows to the Indian markets.
"The finance bill FY14 has been passed by the Lok Sabha. Also, the taxes on the interest payments to foreigners on government and corporate debt have been brought down to 5 percent from up to 20 percent for a two-year period," Abhishek Goenka, Founder and CEO, India Forex Advisors, said.
Globally, the euro rally above USD 1.3100 fizzled after the weaker-than-expected German retail sales. The discouraging data put a cap on the EUR/USD pair. The key question that remains unclear for now is whether the data is bad enough to prompt the ECB to act at this month's policy meeting, Goenka.
The benchmark six-month forward dollar premium payable in September finished lower 147-1/2-149 paise from Monday's close of 151-152 paise and far-forward contracts maturing in March also ended down at 310-311-1/2 paise from 314-1/2-316-1/2 paise.
The RBI fixed the reference rate for the US dollar at 54.2190 and for the euro at 70.9775.
The rupee recovered sharply against pound sterling to 83.27 from Monday's close of 84.22 and also bounced back against the euro to 70.34 from 70.98 previously.
It too rose against the Japanese yen to 55.17 per 100 yen from last close of 55.49.
The Forex and Money markets will remain closed Wednesday, May 1, on account of Maharashtra Day.

One of the last great records ever made by Sarah Vaughan – a really solid session of Brazilian tunes, one that's produced by Sergio Mendes, arranged by Dori Caymmi, and which features guest vocals by Milton Nascimento! The general approach is west coast mellow – as the group features Alphonson Johnson, George Duke, Hubert Laws, Tom Scott, and Ernie Watts – and most of the tunes are English translations of older Brazilian tracks from the 60s and 70s, done by Sarah in an easy, jazzy tone. Titles include "Love & Passion", "Your Smile", "Obsession", "Make This City Ours Tonight", "Nothing Will Be As It Was", and "Photograph".

WILMINGTON, Del. (AP) Republican Senate nominee Christine O'Donnell of Delaware on Tuesday questioned whether the U.S. Constitution calls for a separation of church and state, appearing to disagree or not know that the First Amendment bars the government from establishing religion.
The exchange came in a debate before an audience of legal scholars and law students at Widener University Law School, as O'Donnell criticized Democratic nominee Chris Coons' position that teaching creationism in public school would violate the First Amendment by promoting religious doctrine.
Coons said private and parochial schools are free to teach creationism but that "religious doctrine doesn't belong in our public schools."
"Where in the Constitution is the separation of church and state?" O'Donnell asked him.
When Coons responded that the First Amendment bars Congress from making laws respecting the establishment of religion, O'Donnell asked: "You're telling me that's in the First Amendment?"
Her comments, in a debate aired on radio station WDEL, generated a buzz in the audience.
"You actually audibly heard the crowd gasp," said Widener University political scientist Wesley Leckrone, adding that he thought it raised questions about O'Donnell's grasp of the Constitution.

First Pitch
First Pitch: Trying to Make Sense of Today's Moves
First Pitch
The Pirates had a busy day. They traded Chris Resop, who was arbitration eligible for the second time and projected to make $1.3 M. They also dealt Yamaico Navarro (same link), who wasn't arbitration eligible, but was designated for assignment the other day.
They non-tendered Jeff Karstens, then reached a deal with Charlie Morton for $2 M (I'll get into this in a bit).
Finally, they tendered contracts to everyone else on the roster, including arbitration eligibles Joel Hanrahan, Garrett Jones, Neil Walker, James McDonald, and Gaby Sanchez.
With those moves, and the Russell Martin signing being made official, the 2013 payroll is at a projected $64 M. To make sense of the biggest topics today, let's take a closer look, starting with Karstens.

I love the work here that the designers put into their templates. Its really great work however I did stop purchasing due to the fact that even though they are not the same templates, they all follow each other too much and they all end up with the same features and really the same basic look. For example, most of the templates on here have the same boring small text boxes for things like about and so on. You have this whole screen yet they create this small box with grammed in text. I have noticed the same repeats with news sections. Again I really love the work here but just trying to give a feel for at least what bugs me and what I am looking for. I hate wasting all that space. Rather then giving the user this tiny box and making them scroll so much, I would rather see the screen get used up more.
Also still waiting for some type of voodoo, gothic, or bright color jungle theme of a template so I can buy! Just please… No small text boxes with wasted space
Em… Your avatar is cool!
lol thanks!
you will definitely like our upcoming template… 25% completed by now…
REALLY ! Please keep me updated!!!! email@example.com Like I said, been ready to purchase for months now. Not trying to take anything away from the great work that is done by all here it just seems that 95% of it all as far as templates go have the same basic design and feel. And the little text boxes drive me nuts! lol Nothing drives me more crazy then seeing this little text box come on the screen thats full of text and needs to be scrolled and wastes 70% of the screen.
Can't wait to see it!
yeah, almost there, I can say its 80% ready now, I will be upload it here on ActiveDen… to get updates, follow me on Twitter http://twitter.com/myflashlab/
or register in our newsletter at www.myflashlab.comForum mods, was that ok to post my twitter link here?! do remove it if that's not.
I don't know how the other authors are working, but my templates have the ability to switch font face, size and color; right out of the box.
Still waiting for something that is not like all the rest….
Still waiting for something that is not like all the rest….voodoo, gothic, template are very specific subject, very few will gamble on a template like this here .

I no longer build it for anything other than my personal use, and then only on Mac with the current master code source tree for LibreOffice. I haven't yet tried building AOO on Mac, so have no experience there.

The major Linux distribs eventually get around to providing it with the versions that they ship of LO, so there's no need for me to hog my very old and slow processor, just to match master building. So for my Linux boxes, I just wait until the next version is released/updated. If that means that I don't get to test it with current development, well, that's just tough, if there are problems, they will show themselves soon enough :-)) For something to happen on Windows, it would require someone with the dedication and knowledge to build AOO on that OS, and to know how to re-integrate the build of the connector back into the build tree (make/config files), because my understanding is that it has been ripped out, unless there is just some magical configure switch that lets you turn it back on again. My current thinking is to move away from Base altogether as a UI front-end for mysql/mariadb/postgres etc, and work on manipulating ODF documents directly with output from my dbs via another programming language (probably php, python or perl, or some strange combination of all of them).

April 11, 2014
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Tennessee basketball player Jarnell Stokes announced Friday that he will forego his senior season and enter the 2014 NBA Draft. The power forward from Memphis, Tenn., was a first-team All-SEC selection as a junior this year. He owns or shares 10 Tennessee statistical records.
The NBA Draft takes places Thursday, June 26, and will be televised nationally on ESPN.
"I have made the decision to forgo my senior season and enter the NBA draft," Stokes said on Friday. "I will always be a Vol for Life."
Despite playing less than three full collegiate seasons - he graduated high school early, enrolled in January of 2011 and played in just 17 games as a freshman - the 6-8, 260-pound Stokes leaves Tennessee as one of the most prolific rebounders in school history.
He'll also be remembered as one of the sparkplugs of UT's 2013-14 Sweet Sixteen team, which overcame adversity to win 24 games and fight its way to three NCAA Tournament victories for only the second time in school history.
In four NCAA Tournament games, Stokes averaged 18.0 points, 12.8 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.0 steal. His NCAA Tournament rebounding average of 12.8 rpg ranks No. 1 among Vols who have played at least two career tournament games. He scored a career-high 26 points and ripped down 18 rebounds in UT's third-round win over Mercer March 23, which clinched the eighth Sweet Sixteen berth in Tennessee history.
"First of all, I think Jarnell is going to go down as one of the best big men to ever play at Tennessee - certainly one of the most dominant rebounders ever to wear the orange," UT head coach Cuonzo Martin said. "I hope our fans will celebrate his career, because the growth and development he's shown over the past three years has really been impressive, and I'm proud of the player and man he's become.
"I know this wasn't an easy decision for him, but his goal has always been to be a pro, and he's worked incredibly hard to put that goal within reach. We all support him and know he'll be a great representative of Tennessee basketball at the next level. It's my hope that he'll eventually return to Tennessee and graduate, and he knows we'll do everything we can to support him when that time comes."
Stokes appeared in 87 career games, making 84 starts (he made 79 straight starts to end his UT career). He ranks among Tennessee's all-time leaders in offensive rebounding (337, first), double-doubles (40, fourth), total rebounding (836, eighth), blocks (94, 14th) and scoring (1,129, 41st). The Vols averaged 21 wins per season during Stokes' three-year career.
Stokes' 22 double-doubles this past season ranked second among all Division I players and tied the Tennessee single-season record set by Hall of Famer Bernard King in 1976-77. Stokes nearly averaged a double-double for his career, posting three-year marks of 13.0 points and 9.6 rebounds per game.
His 155 offensive rebounds and 4.19 offensive rebounding average as a junior both stand as the best by a Vol in a single season since offensive rebounding statistics have been tracked (1996-97). His 4.19 offensive rebounds per game also ranked third among all players in Division I last season.
For his career, Stokes averaged a school-record 3.87 offensive rebounds per game.
Stokes was a first-team All-SEC selection last season, and he also earned All-District honors from the NABC, USBWA and Basketball Times.
Tennessee has produced 43 all-time NBA Draft picks, dating to 1948. The most recent Vol to have his name called in the draft was Tobias Harris, who was selected 19th overall by the Charlotte Bobcats in 2011.
Harris, who now plays for the Orlando Magic, is one of three former Vols who suited up for NBA teams this season, along with C.J. Watson (Indiana Pacers) and Scotty Hopson (Cleveland Cavaliers).

how many sheets of letter does this use?
how many sheets of letter does this use?
38 sheets of letter paper.
It comes to somewhere around 25 square feet, you'd need roughly 3 32"x40" sheets.
That's not too bad
Thanks Ruze, I couldn't remember off the top of my head and I'm a little busy here.
Nice work so far!
Looks Great, can't wait to start the Classic pack, already used your jango jet pack with moderate success.
If it's ok with you, I'll post some pics.
Sure thing mate.
Here we go, It is EXTREMELY rough, I rushed it, I had a troop later that day, so It looks like junk.
Also, the cone looked a bit "all-consuming" so I went with some household items, which I am eventually going to replace.
It doesn't look that bad mate. Though rushing will kill any good build. Still, look on the bright side, you can learn from it and start over. Or put some time into fixing it?
Probably just going to start on a new jet pack build, "Classic" is my guess.
Thx 4 the kind words though.
How did you get that middle piece in if its not even atached to any of the paper? Sorry if I get anoying. I'm a man with alot of questions.
What do the letters do?
Wow. I am really stupid. I am very sorry. This happends sometimes when I get lazy and dont really look around.
Im thinking of using this template to build a jetpack for my son's mandalorian costume Im working on (he is almost adult size). So, just a silly question perhaps, what level of thickness card (GSM) should I be printing this on? Also is there any technique for strengthening it once its done, like perhaps fiberglass?
Guys just wondering did Skip ever do the pdf of the boba pack?
If he did can you point me in the right deriction?
Hey TDH! Ok. Finally I found a place where I can contribute (in some fashion!). As some of you know I am in the process of building a Jango Fett costume for my son. One of the areas that I have been scratching my head on is the Jetpack. I found this thread here and downloaded the Pepakura software that Skupilkinson talks about and WOW. So. I figured I would save each page as its own PDF so then you can scale it to the size you need. So here are both packs (Jango Areana and Boba Jetpack) in Letter not A4. I would still recommend you download the Pepakura software and the files that Skupilkinson developed. This way you know where each piece goes (there are alot). Skupilkinson did a great job and I hope that my contribution will help some one else.
Jango Arena Jetpack PDF's (Letter Size)
Boba / Jango Classic Jetpack PDF's (Letter Size)
this is brilliant,just what I needed
spotter301 go and buy some Cardstock from your local office store (Staples, probably). It's thick, and its easier to work with than paper. But they still will run through a normal printer, so don't worry. Oh and I would use some Loctite superglue or any other superglue to speed up the process a bit. You shouldn't have to manipulate them as long as the paper is also A4 sized. If not then just use the Letter size instead.
thanks gray, unfortunately I lost patience and money and ordered one!
Oh don't worry, I think I'm headed in that direction too. Papercraft is quite a *****. Who'd you go with?

In the Appeal of :
Delivered by the Hon. Acting Mr. Justice J.L, Khepl.a on the 3rd May. 1984.
On the 28th October, 1983 the appellant appeared before the Resident Magistrate of Leribe charged with the theft of a motor vehicle belonging to Reisisi Mokoena. He pleaded guilty to the charge and was sentenced to 3 years' imprisonment. He now appeals against sentence only. His grounds of appeal are that
"the trial court failed to take into account the personal circumstances of the appellant, i.e. his age was not considered by the court, he is a first offender, he is the sole breadwinner of his family, he has a small child aged only five months."
I shall give a very short summary of the facts of this case before I can consider the grounds of appeal in detail. The vehicle is an E20 combi with registration No. FMM501T. On the evening of the 14th October, 1983 the complainant parked his vehicle outside the house at Maputsoe. At night when he got out of the house he
discovered that his vehicle was missing. On the following day the vehicle was found in Maseru in the possession of the appellant. It was still intact except that the number plates had been removed and the ignition system had been tampered with because the appellant had to disconnect certain wires in order to start the engine.
Mr. Ramodibeli for the appellant submitted that the learned Resident Magistrate failed to take into account that the appellant is a young man of only 21 years of age and that a long term of custodial sentence would do more harm than good to him. He referred me to the case of S. v. Van Niekerk 1981 (3) S.A. 239 in which it was held that "imprisonment for a first offender on a charge of fraud is not unusual. Account must be taken of the circumstances under which the offences were committed. Where a Court, in the imposition of sentence, has to do with a person who is a "first offender" or has a "clean record," such a person can be either a "fallen angel" or "an incorrigible rogue," All that can be contended in the interest of the latter is that he has not yet been punished by the court for his crimes or has not been warned. In the criminal career of every person it is of the greatest importance how it came about that he committed his first crime. For the purposes of an appropriate sentence and his rehabilitation thereafter it is of material importance to investigate the matter and to consider carefully the accused's explanation thereof." It was contended on behalf of the appellant that he had been a fallen angel and that a sentence of three years' imprisonment
was too harsh. The trial Court did take into account that the appellant was a first offender but went on to say that car theft was not only a very serious offence but was also committed with such "monotonous repetition" that the courts must impose deterrent sentences.
I entirely agree with the trial Court that a first offender should not be under the impression that he will not be sentenced to a custodial sentence. The Court is entitled to take into account the frequency of that particular offence in its area and that is exactly what the trial Court did.
There is no doubt that many magistrates fail to make any investigation into the personal circumstances of the accused before passing sentence. The present case is a typical example of that. After the verdict was pronounced the prosecutor informed the Court that the accused had no previous convictions. The record reads:
"In mitigation: Pray for clemency.
" Sentence: Three years' imprisonment."
Clearly the trial court made no inquiry about the personal circumstances of the appellant because if it had done so the record would reveal that. The proper procedure is that where an accused person is not represented by a legal practitioner the Court must make the investigation by putting questions to the accused in order to find out why he committed the offence and then consider an appropriate sentence for him in the circumstances. It should not be taken for granted that the age appearing on the charge sheet is the correct age because that may
have been estimated by the investigating officer who may be wrong. The accused must be asked his age and if the Court disagrees with him further evidence must be led or the Court's estimation is final if no evidence is available; he must be asked whether he is employed or not; his family background in general. This investigation is very important because the rehabilitation of the accused is a factor which must be taken into account as well as the interests of the society,
I agree with Mr. Ramodibeli that there is nothing in the record of the proceedings to show that the trial Court considered the age of the appellant. He is a fairly young man of 21 years of age and I have a feeling that if the Court considered his age it would probably have imposed a less severe sentence than the present one, I may mention here that the Crown did not support the sentence and they referred me to the case of Nthongoa and Another v. Rex 1980 (1) L.L.R. 196 in which the consistency and equality of sentences was emphasised. It was submitted that the general average sentence in car theft cases is 2 years' imprisonment. See Khabo Molati v. Rex CRI/A/27/81 unreported, Charles Makotoko v. Rex CRI/A/12/81 unreported, I agree with this submission but I must point out that two years' imprisonment is the maximum term of imprisonment a magistrate of First class powers may impose. Some magistrates may be reluctant to commit people for sentence by the High Court because in the past this Court appeared to be discouraging such
procedure. See Rex v. Ramalefane 1981 (2) L.L.R. 355. In other words, it may be that 2 years' imprisonment has become the average sentence simply because the magistrates' jurisdiction is limited.
Taking into account the age of the appellant; the fact that he is a first offender; that the vehicle was recovered only a day after it was stolen and still intact and the fact that the appellant pleaded guilty to the charge, the sentence of 3 years' imprisonment appeared to me to be too severe and substantially different from what I would have imposed. For the reasons I have stated above the sentence imposed by the trial court is set aside. A sentence of fifteen (15) months' imprisonment is imposed,
3rd May, 1984.
For the Appellant : Mr. Ramodibeli
For the Crown : Mr. Kabatsi.

I'm probably one of the few people who prefers the beach during a rainstorm. The colors are so moody: The ocean blends with the clouds and the air is fresh. I love these photos of Malibu, posted on flickr by imagebysp, a seascape photographer extraordinaire. The last picture is fantastic: the surf forms the median between air and sea. Gorgeous.

I purchased my first (and second) handguns within the last month. I have enjoyed going to the range and already hooked on this sport / hobby.
I purchased a Glock 17 Gen 4 and right after purchased a Beretta U22 Neos (to minimize ammo purchase cost). I have enjoyed both guns and very happy with my purchases so far.
Also appreciate the input that was provided through this forum.
I would like to purchase a revolver (not very soon, but hopefully within the next year). Probably in a .357 or .38.
Trying to get an idea of what brand / models are out so I can spend some time researching and keeping an eye out for sales.
Any suggestions?
