The very best Stock Marketplace guidance you will ever read through is to learn from problems when a person else has manufactured them. So, this stock market suggestions record I made a record of some of the most typical trading problems that are manufactured. Even Ive produced some of these. If you have presently built some of the problems, you can rest assured that you arent alone in generating them. If you havent produced them, then heres a way to get around possessing to find out by building the problems your self, by reading through my stock marketplace advice list.
The Stock Marketplace assistance tip 1, and worst blunder that men and women make is that they imagine trading is the straightforward answer, a way to get loaded rapidly. Individuals will frequently expect to become wizards in the market overnight, but they fall short to know that trading is like any occupation you need to learn how to do it very first.
For instance online trading , would you go to a saturday and sunday medical doctors seminar and be expecting to carry out heart medical procedures on Monday? Of program not! I am shocked at what people today expect when they go to a weekend buying and selling seminar. They think they will create wealth without having obtaining to function, spend or assume, and it just doesnt take place that way.
After dealing with trading like a get loaded swift scheme, my subsequent stock marketplace suggestions tip 2 and most widespread error, is to approach the marketplace with out a plan. Without a investing prepare, traders approach the market place in an inconsistent method. One particular day they trade shares and the upcoming they trade the foreign exchange. Or, they could use one particular set of indicators one particular day, and the upcoming day they will toss these indicators out the window and just take on a absolutely new set. Without a steady tactic, the only point governing their investing conclusions is actually emotions, and that trading basics will doom them to failure.
If a new trader has managed to skip these last two faults, they often fall down when they consider to go it by yourself. This is my Stock Current market advice three, all traders ought to discover their selves a coach, or a mentor. Somebody who can assist them spot the glitches in their process that they may not have observed. An external level of see can aid you stay away from other high priced errors, and drastically boost your gains.
These are some widespread and fairly essential blunders. The upcoming errors Unwell mention are ones that are just as prevalent in the investing industry, but they frequently happen the moment traders have been about for a whilst. I have some private experience with these faults. Lets simply call this stock current market advice list, the several most costly problems Ive made.
My stock market tips blunder tip 4, or the 1st most pricey error buy stocks , I manufactured was to research for the Holy Grail of buying and selling. This was an incredible waste of the two time and dollars. For the duration of the initial a few years of my buying and selling job, I invested about $twenty five,677 on a library complete of books, videos and seminars as nicely as shelling out countless numbers of hrs in research of the great investing methods. Truthfully, 95% of what I bought was pure junk I really should have listened to my mentor before and realized the Holy Grail of trading is merely excellent money management!
My stock market assistance blunder suggestion 5 or the second most high-priced mistake I produced was not getting a predefined exit point. Early in my investing profession, I don't forget investing a stock I considered had a large proportion possibility of soaring. I was way too confident. I totally leveraged the place. Unfortunately, when items did not go as prepared, I did not know forex trading when to exit, and was paralysed. I stored rationalizing why I must hold onto that stock. As the stock continued to fall, I produced much more and far more excuses. At the quite end, I recall contemplating, I cant just take it any more!
I sold out. That, of study course, was the level the stock turned.
I learned two very precious lessons that day. 1st, constantly have your exit details predefined. Second, huge losses once began out as modest losses, and it is substantially simpler to get a tiny loss than a massive a person.
My Stock Market place tips mistake tip 6 or the very last most expensive mistake, I produced is not a single that took funds out of my pocket alternatively it was a blunder that made me depart dollars on the table. In reality, this reoccurring blunder value me major.
Early on, I bear in mind marketing positions as soon as they confirmed a profit. I anyoption would not let my income run, as I was far too reluctant to give the income again to the current market. I figured the revenue as mine. The outcome was that I ended up offering the stocks that had been producing me dollars.
It wasnt right up until my mentor defined to me that when you are investing, and demonstrating a profit, that is the point the place you need to be adding to the position, not closing it out, that I started to recognize what I was carrying out. As soon as I commenced subsequent his assistance, my trading profits soared.
Investing is not an uncomplicated job, but it give you wonderful benefits. Avoid these frequent mistakes on my Stock Current market guidance record, generate a basic, very well-developed trading technique, and understand your marketplace. If you get the time to review the current market, and find out from others faults as very well as your possess, you will turn into a effective trader.

Age difference
20 months between 1 & 2.
5.5 years between 2 & 3.
7 years between 1 & 3.
I really don't think there is a perfect age difference. #2 was a happy accident and I wouldn't have waited 5.5 years intentionally, but it was what I got. Having them close in age has definite advantages, like getting out of diapers quickly. But my youngest also got to be an only child during the day, while his siblings were in school.
we're ttc #2 right now, but we're trying to have 2-2.5 years between ezch kid.
we based that off of the spacing in our own families and our friends and their siblings.
I wanted mine 2-3 years apart. But I just have 1!! LOL!!
My two are 6 years apart. I love the age difference. I was able to devote myself to my DS one on one until he went into kindergarden. Then when DD was born she had my full attention while her brother was at school.
2yrs 5months between dd's 2&3
5yrs 3months between 1&3
i think the age difference depends on the person and how they feel.
Mine are 4 yrs apart. I used to think 21/2 was the perfect number. Now I think it depends on the family. 4 yrs even though it wasn't planned is working out really well.
Worked for my brother and I. So we decided that was for us.
Quoting mamaeagle216:
We have two children. Our oldest, Seth, is 18 months an one week older than his baby sister Abigail.
Worked for my brother and I. So we decided that was for us.

Wildcats fall at Big 12 Championships
Wildcats fall at Big 12 Championships
OKLAHOMA CITY Shana Wheeler collected her first career double-double with 17 points and a game-high 10 rebounds but the Wildcats could get little else going on offense as Kansas State fell to Iowa State 57-45 in its opening round game at the Big 12 Women's Basketball Championships Tuesday at the Cox Convention Center.
Kimberly Dietz added 10 points and was the only other player to finish in double figures for Kansas State (16-14), which was held to its second fewest points of the season and was knocked in the tournament's first round for the first time since 2001.
Iowa State (23-7) got 18 points from Nicky Wieben and 12 from Lyndsey Medders to notch its third straight win of the season over the Wildcats.
But it didn't come easy. Both teams struggle from the field during the first half and Iowa State lead by just four at the break.
K-State quickly made up the deficit during the opening five minutes of the second half and tied the game a 26-26 after a 3-pointer and a free throw by Dietz.
Three more ties followed over the next five minutes before Iowa State began to pull away at the eight minute mark. The Cyclones strung together a 17-8 run down the stretch that was keyed by a barrage of 3-pointers and an old fashioned 3-point play by Wieben to go on top 54-43 with 2:26 remaining.
K-State, which was held to its second fewest points of the season on just 27 percent shooting, got as close as nine twice in the final two minutes but could never put together a significant run to get back in the game.
Turnovers and cold shooting had the Wildcats in an 8-1 hole early. K-State didn't connect on its first field goal until over eight minutes in when Lehning finally broke the drought with a slicing layup that ignited a 6-0 mini run by K-State to make it 8-7.
Iowa State scored the next six points and pushed its lead by to seven at 14-7 when the Wildcats ramped up their defense. K-State held the Cyclones to just two free throws over the next six minutes pulled within a point on a layup by Wheeler that cut the deficit to 16-15.
Iowa State again answered and pushed its lead back to seven following two free throws by Amanda Nisleit with 10.6 second left in the half. But the Wildcats again responded as Dietz canned K-State's only trey of the period with four seconds to go to make it 24-20 Cyclones at intermission.

Bearing in mind Florida's vast elderly population, Mr Perry said he advocated reform of Social Security, while adding that it should be safeguarded for existing beneficiaries.
But Mr Romney pointed to Mr Perry's past criticisms of Social Security.
"There's a Rick Perry out there that's saying that... the federal government shouldn't be in the pension business, that it's unconstitutional and to be returned to the states," said Mr Romney. "So you better find that Rick Perry and get him to stop saying that."
Mr Perry said his stance on the issue had shifted "not one inch, sir", then hit back saying that Mr Romney had changed his position on healthcare between editions of a book he had published.
In one edition, Mr Perry said, Mr Romney had advocated expanding the healthcare programme he signed in Massachusetts to the rest of the country.
"Then in your paperback you took that line out, so speaking of not getting it straight in your book, sir," said Mr Perry.
"I think Americans just don't know sometimes which Mitt Romney they're dealing with," Mr Perry added.

Though it's a point sometimes lost in American Catholic debate, the roughly seventy million Catholics in the United States represent just six percent of the global Catholic population of almost 1.2 billion. That would seem to imply the need for some attention to Catholic dynamics outside American airspace, and today the U.S. bishops made a nod in that direction, hearing a report on the 2007 assembly of the Latin American bishops in Aparecida, Brazil.
Archbishop Roberto Nieves Gonzalez of San Juan, Puerto Rico, tried to sum up the main points of the month-long gathering during an afternoon address to the spring meeting of the U.S. bishops in San Antonio, Texas.
Nieves covered a lot of ground, but he suggested that the lasting importance of Aparecida, the fifth general gathering of Latin American bishops since 1955, may be its missionary thrust. In their concluding document, the Latin American bishops suggested that the entire Christian life can be understood in terms of being a "disciple missionary."
The signature idea of Aparecida was the "Great Continental Mission," meaning a coordinated continent-wide missionary effort unfolding at the diocesan level.
Nieves called the Continental Mission "the most significant, concrete resolution" from the Aparecida meeting – though at the same time, Nieves said that the process used in the meeting, involving a wide network of consultation and dialogue, "is more important than the document."
tAt least in part, the missionary concern of the Latin American bishops reflected the striking exodus out of the Catholic church in some parts of the continent.
Belgian Passionist Fr. Franz Damen, a veteran staffer for the Bolivian bishops, concluded in the 1990s that conversions from Catholicism to Protestantism in Latin America during the 20th century actually surpassed the Protestant Reformation in Europe in the 16th century. A study commissioned in the late 1990s by CELAM, the Conference of Bishops of Latin America and the Caribbean, found that 8,000 Latin Americans were deserting the Catholic Church every day.
A 2005 poll by Latinobarometro, a Chile-based firm that conducts polls in 17 Latin American countries found that 71 percent of Latin Americans considered themselves Roman Catholic in 2004, down from 80 percent in 1995. If that trend continues at its current pace, the authors speculated, only 50 percent of Latin Americans would identify themselves as Catholics by 2025.
Nieves said that the Continental Mission is designed to unfold in four stages over 2009-2012, beginning with raising awareness and deepening formation, and then moving to work with various sectors of society and geographic regions.
In a brief floor discussion, some bishops noted that given the increasing share of the American Catholic population composed of Hispanics, including recent immigrants, perhaps the model of Christians as "disciple missionaries," as well as the idea of a "continental mission," could be promoted in the United States as well.
Bishop Jaime Soto of Sacramento, for example, urged committees of the U.S. conference "to really study this document and draw on its rich resources," as a step towards promoting "the globalization of hope."
Nieves said a regular inter-American meeting of Catholic bishops has discussed how the insights of Aparecida might be applied in the context of the United States.
Bishop Ricardo Ramirez of Las Cruces, however, lamented what he described as declining interest in Latin America within the U.S. Catholic community as compared to the 1970s and 1980s, when the Cold War and the struggles against police states in the region kept a spotlight on Latin America.
"Perhaps democracy is less interesting that dictatorship," Ramirez said.
Ramirez suggested that perhaps some Latin American bishops could be invited to join regular meetings of the USCCB, as one way to promote solidarity across the continent.

The Oakland Raiders will host the Detroit Lions in their second preseason game tonight. Last week, the Raiders were stagnant in the preseason opener, but had two intense practices against the Dallas Cowboys this week to light a fire under the team. They will try to carry that momentum and competitive spirit into the Detroit game. Here are some players to watch.
Oakland played three quarterbacks in the preseason opener to varying degrees of success. Matt Schaub was the least successful finishing 3-7 for 21 yards. He should get a few more series to improve this week. There was a clear lack of chemistry between Schaub and the receivers last week, so this week he will have to improve that rhythm. Derek Carr did some nice things in his preseason debut. For him, these games are all about getting comfortable and learning the position as well as the speed of the NFL. Matt McGloin played well against Minnesota and will look to duplicate those results this week.
Running Backs
Latavius Murray was the standout in this group. He played well in the preseason opener and should continue to get serious work this week. He showed that he can carry the ball and catch the ball out of the backfield. Now, he must continue to learn how to pick up the blitz and pass protect. Maurice Jones-Drew and Darren McFadden both looked healthy and spry in the opener. They could get some more work this week against a strong Lions run defense.
Wide Receivers
This group literally dropped the ball in the opener. Oakland had far too many drops and desperately need to be more focused this week. The first unit wideouts like Andre Holmes, James Jones, and Rod Streater need to find that chemistry with Schaub. This is the time to do that. Denarius Moore and Brice Butler were two players who stood out in a positive way in the opener and will look to build on those performances.
Tight Ends
The Raiders have been ravished by injuries here with David Ausberry and Nick Kasa down with knee injuries. Mychal Rivera had two big drops in the opener and needs to play better this week. Brian Leonhardt left some to be desired after his first action of the preseason. This is his opportunity to show his ability, before the Raiders go into free agency.
Offensive Line
This group had too many penalties in the opener and need to clean that up. Other than that they did a good job in both protection and run blocking. They are just starting to play as a group and these game go a long way in developing a level of comfort and execution together. Right tackle Menelik Watson is a key to the offensive line.
Defensive Line
The Raiders defensive line was able to get pressure last week with six sacks. Seventh-round pick Shelby Harris showed very well with a forced fumble in the first game. Roster bubble guys like Torell Troup and Ryan Robinson both made an impact against Minnesota.
There were too may missed tackles by this group in the first game. Sio Moore has able to stand out because of his ability to generate pressure in the pass rush. First-round pick Khalil Mack got his first NFL action and will have an opportunity to improve this week. Miles Burris showed his versatility playing outside and middle linebacker against Minnesota. Kaelin Burnett played very well as he battles for a roster spot. He made sure tackle and pressure the quarterback in the opener. He is making a push to be on the final roster, but needs to continue his solid play.
This remains the biggest question mark of the defense. They let Matt Cassel throw all over them. Cornerback Tarell Brown was victimized and needs to be far better this week. The Raiders are counting on him as a number one corner. Chimdi Chewka was a standout in the opener, but his battling injury and is questionable for the game. T.J. Carrie is another cornerback trying to translate his ability to make plays to game situations. Seventh-round safety Jonathan Dowling struggled in the opener missing tackles. He needs to play better against Detroit.

The gun-running scandal: Sunshine, please
Congressional subpoenas must reveal what the Justice Department won't explain about a Border Patrol death and its ham-handed effort to link illegally sold guns with Mexican drug cartels.
With Justice largely stonewalling, U.S. Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, plans to subpoena officials involved with a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) program known as "Fast and Furious," reports The Hill newspaper.
A bad idea from the start, the program authorized U.S. gun stores to illegally sell thousands of firearms to Mexican cartels' "straw purchasers" -- in hopes of tracing those guns to, and prosecuting, cartel bigwigs.
But ATF lost track of some of those guns.
Two turned up at the Arizona scene where Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry was killed in a drug-gang firefight. Others might have grounded a Mexican government helicopter.
Attorney General Eric Holder touts an internal probe. But a Justice Department that countenanced "Fast and Furious" in the first place can't be relied on to get to the bottom of the fiasco that resulted.
What's needed is a clear-eyed, independent investigation -- which Rep. Issa's planned subpoenas and hearings will provide.

MANHATTAN BEACH, Calif., Jan. 10, 2014 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- There are many things that all actors, whether they are newcomers or veterans, need to be aware of when it comes to the industry in which they work. Unfortunately, many of these actors fall prey to the same mistakes over and over again simply through misinformation or plain bad advice. Jane Schulman, owner of Vesta Talent Agency, was asked by us to help clarify these misconceptions.
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20140110/MN44063)
Schulman, whose agency has been serving the entertainment industry for years, has seen many actors fall prey to the same issues time and again, their naiveté leading to costly mistakes that should have been easily avoided. Schulman, for her part, offered to share some of her expertise in order to help newcomers and industry veterans alike avoid some of the trappings that the industry sometimes has in store.
"One of the most obvious pitfalls when it comes to industry newcomers is in the selection of an agency," said Schulman. "There are so many wonderful and legitimate agencies in this industry, but there are also plenty of agencies who are working outside the parameters of the law and not necessarily looking out for the actor's best interests. The clearest example is an agency that asks for money up front. I'm always flabbergasted when an actor asked me what fees I charge. What kinds of agencies have they been interviewing with? Agents work on the commissions they earn from finding the actor work, so up-front payment is forbidden."
According to Schulman, it is also important to check the number of clients that the agent works with. Do you want to be in a high visibility agency where each agent can easily represent more than 300 actors or, do you want a boutique situation where the agents represents only a fraction of that? "It should be fairly easy to find an agent's client listing, and from there you can easily determine the number of clients and types of jobs," said Schulman. "Those are a few criteria to determine if an agency will suit the actor's needs."
Schulman noted that there is one component above all others that seems to be the best determinant of a good partnership with an agency: Communication. "Listen to what the agent is saying, not what you want to hear. Although you might hit it off personally with an agent, it is a professional alliance and it's imperative you understand what is expected of you. A misconception actors have is they think they hold the power in the relationship but it's not so. Most good agents would rather let an actor go, even if he's booking, rather than work with someone who is difficult."

Nairobi (AFP) Oct 15, 2011
Kenyan forces will pursue gunmen accused of a spate of kidnappings of foreigners across the two nations' border, the internal security minister said Saturday.
Branding Somalia's Al-Qaeda inspired Al-Shebab rebels "the enemy", George Saitoti said Kenya intended to track down the kidnappers whose raids on two beach resorts have dealt a major blow to Kenya's tourism industry.
"Our territorial integrity is threatened with serious security threats of terrorism, we cannot allow this to happen at all," said Saitoti.
"It means we are now going to pursue the enemy, who are the Al-Shebab, to wherever they will be, even in their country," he told reporters.
In just over the past month, a British woman and a French woman have been abducted from beach resorts, while two Spanish aid workers were on Thursday seized from a refugee camp.
Police have blamed the abductions on the Islamist Shebab, but experts say the kidnappings could also be the work of pirates, bandits or opportunistic criminal gangs.
"If you are attacked by an enemy, you are allowed to pursue that enemy until where you get him," said Kenyan Defence Minister Yusuf Mohammed Haji, speaking alongside Saitoti. "We will force them far away from our border."
Security forces were still searching Saturday for the two Spaniards, both logistics officers with the aid group Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF, Doctors Without Borders), who were abducted from Kenya's Dadaab refugee camp and are believed to have been taken over the border.
"The militants are still being pursued," Saitoti said. "We have mobilised adequate security forces who are still pursuing them."
Large numbers of Kenyan security forces including helicopters were reported close to the Somali frontier on Saturday, an AFP reporter in the area said.
Kenyan military vehicles were seen driving through scrubland near the Liboi border post.
"Everything possible is being done to ensure those kidnapped are found," Haji added.
Kenya is still reeling from the kidnapping of the French and British women from coastal regions which has badly damaged its key tourism sector.
Aid agencies said they were halting all but life-saving relief efforts in Dadaab -- the world's largest refugee camp, and home to some 450,000 mainly Somali refugees fleeing drought, famine or war -- as they reviewed security.
Kenyan authorities have on several occasions expressed fears Islamist extremists would infiltrate the Dadaab camps from Somalia, as the border lies barely 100 kilometres (60 miles) away.
Kenya also said it had shut its border with Somalia, although enforcing that move across the porous frontier will be a near impossible move in reality.
"We have closed the border with Somalia and we have no apology to make," Saitoti said, adding that security officials would search all refugees entering and already in Kenya, claiming not all were "a bona fide refugee".
The Dadaab camp complex has seen a huge influx of people this year -- over 7,500 people have arrived in the crowded complex of rag, tin and plastic huts this month alone.
The exodus has been sparked by a severe drought that has affected more than 13 million people across the Horn of Africa, hitting Somalia especially hard.
"Why is it that this refugee issue is being seen as a Kenyan issue?" Saitoti added.
"We want the international community to stabilise Somalia so that these refugees can be taken back there," he said.
Somalia has had no effective government ever since it plunged into repeated rounds of civil wars beginning in 1991, allowing a flourishing of militia armies, extremist rebels and piracy.
The Shebab have reportedly denied involvement in the kidnappings, according to the World Health Organisation's representative for Somalia.

China urges investigation of Mekong attack
Beijing (UPI) Oct 14, 2011

The attack of the story ballets...
Fri Nov 17 2006
Or perhaps a better expression, at least at New York City Ballet, is "Money matters!" The company, founded by George Balanchine and Lincoln Kirstein—who, among other things, wanted to stretch the art form beyond its story-ballet roots—will present a new full-length production of Romeo and Juliet on May 1. Still, it's described as being "the centerpiece of NYCB's spring season celebration of the centennial of Lincoln Kirstein's birth." But there's more! It will be choreographed by Peter Martins—a man who really has a grasp on romance (kidding—his hard-edged Swan Lake is about as romantic as an episode of Sex and the City). On the positive side, there are many contenders for Juliet—Jenifer Ringer is number one. The production will also include students from the School of American Ballet, which means there should be some opportunity to bask in the glory of little Austin Bachman (who, sadly, has stepped down from Nutcracker prince duties this season). Unfortunately, sets and costumes are by the Danish painter Per Kirkeby, who created the hideous sets and costumes for Martins's Swan Lake. Oh well. Jenifer Ringer would look pretty in a laundry sack. Maybe this time around, the look of the whole thing won't be sloppy graffiti.
There's less unexpected news at American Ballet Theatre, which is reviving Lar Lubovitch's full-evening Othello in May. Two guest artists will play the title role: Desmond Richardson (the part was created on him) and Rasta Thomas. They're both wonderful.

Gildan New Mexico Bowl Notes - Week 11 in PDF format
WHAT TO WATCH FOR THIS WEEK: The biggest Pac-12 game of the regular season takes place Thursday night on The Farm in Palo Alto as No. 3 Oregon travels to No. 5 Stanford. BCS National Championship Game stakes are on the line as the 8-0 Ducks look to avenge last season's 17-14 home loss to the 7-1 Cardinal. On Saturday, Washington has a chance to become bowl eligible as it hosts Colorado at 5 p.m. PT. Later that night No. 19 UCLA travels to to Arizona State in a huge Pac-12 South battle at 7 p.m. PT on ESPN. The winner will be in the driver's seat for the Pac-12 Championship Game on Dec. 7.
For the second straight week the Mountain West has all but one team (Boise State) in action. A Friday-night matchup between Air Force and New Mexico gets things started at 7 on ESPNU. On Saturday, Utah State travels to UNLV at 6 p.m. MT as each team looks to become bowl eligible. No. 16 Fresno State looks to remain undefeated as it faces the task of traveling to Laramie to face Wyoming at 8:15 p.m. MT on ESPN2. The week concludes as San José State also looks to become bowl eligible when it hosts San Diego State at 7:30 p.m. PT. A complete list of each conference's games is available on the first page of the PDF.
WEEK 10 RECAP: Only one Mountain West team, Wyoming, was off last week as conference play dominated the schedule. Air Force earned its second win of the season in the only non-conference matchup, as it defeated Army 42-28. Meanwhile, Utah State, San José State, San Diego State and Boise State all picked up conference wins. No. 16 Fresno State remained perfect on the season by defeating Nevada 41-23.
There were only four Pact-12 games last week, including both Thursday night and Friday night contests, as three teams became bowl eligible. Arizona State got the week started by winning at Washington State 55-21 on Thursday. USC, which is ineligible for the postseason in 2013, continued its mid-season resurgence with a 31-14 win at Oregon State on Friday night. No. 20 UCLA earned its sixth win by defeating Colorado 45-23 while Arizona held off Cal on the road for a 33-28 victory. Complete results from week 10 are:
10/31 Arizona State def. Washington State, 55-21 / 20,617 11/1 USC def. Oregon State, 31-14 / 45,379

BOWL PREDICTIONS: It's another week closer to this year's Gildan New Mexico Bowl , and the projections are becoming more and more unified. San José State is the most popular pick to be the home team and represent the Mountain West, with Colorado State and UNLV also receiving some attention, while Oregon State and Arizona are the clear favorites to be the visiting team from the Pac-12. Here is the breakdown of what has been selected for the 2013 bowl game:

WHO'S GOING BOWLING: There are 35 bowl games scheduled for the 2013-14 postseason equaling 70 slots. BYU was the first team to grab a slot, accepting a bid to the Fight Hunger Bowl. Currently, there are 49 bowl-eligible teams and 21 have already been eliminated, leaving 55 teams that can still become eligible. For the Pac-12, which has seven bowl tie-ins for its 12 members, six teams (Oregon, Oregon State, Stanford, Arizona, Arizona State and UCLA) already have the necessary six wins while Washington is just one victory away. California has been eliminated from the postseason. The Mountain West, which has six bowl tie-ins for its 12 members, has two teams (Fresno State and Boise State) that have already qualified for the postseason and three teams (San José State, Utah State and UNLV) a single win away from eligible status. Air Force and Hawai`i have been eliminated from bowl eligibility.
NATIONAL RANKINGS: The third BCS rankings of the season were announced Sunday evening and the Pac-12 Conference had four representatives among the top 25, while the Mountain West Conference has one. Leading the way is Oregon, which dropped a spot to No. 3, behind Alabama and Florida State. Stanford moved up a spot, coming in at fifth, followed by 19th-ranked UCLA and 22nd-ranked Arizona State. For the MW, Fresno State held steady at No. 16.
The latest Associated Press and USA Today/Coaches' top-25 polls were announced Sunday and the Pac-12 has four teams in both polls, including two in the Top 10. It's the 40th consecutive AP polling period where the Pac-12 has had three or more teams ranked in the Top 25. Oregon leads the way, sitting at No. 2 in both polls. Stanford moved up a spot in the USA Today/Coaches' poll to No. 6/6 while UCLA also moved up one spot in each to No. 16/18. Arizona State climbed in to the 24th spot in the USA Today/Coaches' poll and moved up to No. 23 in the AP poll.

The MW's largest attendance figure came in Fresno, Calif., as the Bulldogs hosted Nevada in front of over 41,000 fans.

A wide spectrum of representatives at eight different churches in California, Colorado and Washington who have been dismissed or are presently seeking dismissal recently reflected on their reasons for leaving Presbyterian Church (USA). In spite of characterizations to the contrary, gay and lesbian issues were not particularly important in their deliberations – their primary concerns centering on what they saw as an increasing politicization and theological drift of the denomination.
Phone interviews, oftentimes quite extensive in length, conducted with a wide variety of ministers and staff, elders and members at these churches revealed results at variance with those who assert that the motivation of churches seeking dismissal is "95 percent about gay and lesbian issues." The approval of gay ordination naturally caught the attention of many in these churches, and led to serious discussion around the topic – as several members had gays or lesbians as sons or daughters or grandsons or granddaughters. These people often felt somewhat conflicted, especially if there were to be a vote for dismissal, as they might somehow be "voting against" members of their own families.
The discussions within the churches, however, soon revealed an outpouring of support of welcome to worship and "sitting beside us in the pews" for gays and lesbians. Remarkably, this level of understanding and welcome to all "children of God" removed almost entirely any level of concern – and the congregations soon moved on to what were considered more profound problems with PCUSA. When queried about the gay and lesbian concern, people said it was "an issue, not the main issue," or it "wasn't much of an issue." Gays and lesbians at a 4,000-member church – after an overwhelming percentage voted to leave and join ECO – were asked about their reaction. They said they were not that upset, that they were staying, and that "this is our home church, and we're not leaving."
The conversations, at "town hall" as well as small group and one-on-one meetings then soon focused on the increasing politicization of the national denomination – with PCUSA seen as taking stands on very sensitive political, social and economic issues that often diverged from the beliefs of large numbers of Presbyterians. One particularly salient example was the stand of PCUSA on abortion, with its emphasis on unlimited public funding of abortions and no limits on access to abortions. That there should even have been discussion about late-term abortion, as well as the fact that members were actually funding abortions through their per-capita contributions to the denomination's medical insurance (which covers any and all abortions for those who are employed by PCUSA), was considered especially problematic. Even for those who were conflicted about their own views on abortion, or were frankly pro-choice, it struck them as odd that the denomination should take any public stand at all on what is, after all, such a sensitive issue.
The problem expressed by those in these churches, over and over again, was how much time and effort was being devoted to these topics, time and effort that was being taken away from what members felt was their main mission of serving Christ. One person in particular reflected on how difficult it often was, in trying to encourage new members to join his church, to explain how statements from the national body did not necessarily reflect the opinions and beliefs of all Presbyterians.
The main concern of those at these churches, of course, was theological – or what is sometimes described as theological pluralism. The problem was over simple, core beliefs, not arcane doctrinal disputes. Mentioned most often here was the change in the language in the Book of Order that we are to make decisions "in obedience to Scripture" to "guided by Scripture." People found that this change in language violated, for them, one of the most basic aspects of what it mean to be Christian, allowing people to "pick and choose" how they might live their lives. In fact, if there was one phrase that was repeated more than any other in these conversations, it was "authority of Scripture."
Of equal level of attention was the nature of Christ. Of course there was review again of the famous Kaseman case, in which more than 30 years ago, a minister who was being examined for acceptance to a church denied both the divinity of Christ and the resurrection. The striking thing about that case was how the pertinent presbytery could approve him for acceptance, and how the Permanent Judicial Commission could subsequently agree with the presbytery. This case still has currency in the debate, these many years later.
More recent, however, is the testimony by ministers – and even one secretary at one of these churches – that in conversations at PCUSA events how they felt among the minority of those who held belief in the resurrection and the divinity of Christ. Equally concerning was how ministers from PCUSA pulpits regularly suggest that the Bible – especially the life of Christ – is fiction, that there is no salvation, no heaven, no hell and indeed no afterlife.
Although not a reason for leaving, an important element of the experience of these churches was the subsequent impact after they left on their membership and overall level of giving. These churches found that they did lose some members in the short run, even though many of those who voted against dismissal chose to stay in the church community they had come to value. Soon, however, membership often began to grow – often considerably – as it turned out that people had been quietly watching and waiting for these churches to "take a stand."
The same thing frequently happened with financial contributions, even in the short run as churches lost some members – since those among the large majorities remaining simply increased their pledges. This fact would seem to call into question those who posit that leaving would necessarily pose a grave financial threat to any church seeking dismissal. The direct quotes from the churches are noteworthy: "we were not harmed financially because of our decision," "we gained more than we lost," "we are stronger now that we were before," and "financially we are stronger, because we took a stand."
In summary, an extraordinary group of individuals at eight different churches provides some important guidance on why they felt, always quietly and without rancor or acrimony, that they could not in good conscience remain affiliated with a denomination that no longer reflected their core beliefs. These beliefs, and their discussions, had little to do with gay issues, but rather with what they felt had become a national body seemingly more interested in political issues than with representing Scriptural authority and the lordship of Christ. As many of these people said, "we felt that we were not leaving PCUSA, we felt that they left us."

A BURGLARY case has been officially closed after the accused man was found hanged at HMP Hewell, between Redditch and Bromsgrove.
Jamie Oliver, also known as Jamie Manning, aged 33, was found on November 14 last year, Charles Hamer, acting on his behalf in the proceedings, told Worcester Crown Court.
He was born in Redditch but his address was given as HMP Hewell in Tardebigge and he had been committed for trial at crown court for burglary.
An investigation had concluded that he committed suicide by hanging, Mr Hamer said. He presented a death certificate to the court.
Recorder Chris Bright, QC, said it was tragic when anyone felt driven to take their own life and the court process marked the end of the case.

What's the difference between Zaroff and Rainsford in "The Most Dangerous Game"?
- print Print
- list Cite
2 Answers
At the ending of this story, it is not clear that there really is a difference between Rainsford and Zaroff. At least, some have said that the ending implies that Rainsford may just step into Zaroff's place and start hunting himself.
However, you can argue that they are different, especially if you don't believe this interpretation of the ending. While Rainsford does like to hunt, he does nothing that shows that he is brutal like Zaroff. Rainsford does set all sorts of traps for Zaroff, but that is completely self-defense. Rainsford kills Zaroff, not in self-defense, but it's hard to imagine what else he should have done -- go to sleep and hope Zaroff wouldn't come kill him?
So, I think that Rainsford is not cruel and inhuman like Zaroff is. Rainsford is only violent when he needs to be.
Zaroff and Rainsford are both hunters. Rainsford is world renowned for his skill as a hunter, but General Zaroff believes that he too is a skilled hunter and he has heard of and is excited to "hunt with" Rainsford. The biggest difference between the two is that Rainsford hunts big game that are only animals, while General Zaroff hunts what he calls "dangerous game" and that is humans. He believes that his "game" where he hunts a human for three days is fair and it intrigues him because he feels he has finally found his intellectual match in a hunt. He feels that only humans are cunning and clever enough to be hunted. Rainsford does not agree, but is forced to play.

To decrease your risk of spreading HIV disease to others, do all of the following: (1) continue to take all HIV medications exactly as prescribed by your doctor, (2) always use an effective barrier method (latex or polyurethane condoms/dental dams) during all sexual activity, and (3) do not share personal items (such as needles/syringes, toothbrushes, and razors) that may have contacted blood or other body fluids. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for more details.OTHER This section contains uses of this drug that are not listed in the approved professional labeling for the drug but that may be prescribed by your health care professional.

Is cloSe The breakfast
This guest did not leave comments about this hotel.
Very nice clean room. Free breakfast was just okay. Cereal, toast, yogurt. No hot food. No fresh fruit. Fine for one night stay.
Room was big. I was in Radford for a court hearing. Needed to print a piece of paper in the morning and I could not because they didn't have a computer in the lobby. Front desk clerk spent 30 minutes trying to print it from the reservation computer.
The room was clean. The staff was friendly and helpful
The room was clean. We needed a place to stay overnight when visiting Virginia Tech. It was no frills -- 2 beds, a bathroom and a TV. People in the office were nice. Continental breakfast was good. There is a bar nearby and it was noisy at night.
Toilet was clogged and backed up. When it was reported, desk clerk handed me the plunger.
The bed was super and everything looked great until you got to the bathroom. Owner was very helpful and friendly . The free breakfast saved you even more money. Why do bargain hotels always skimp on cleaning the bathroom. I know. It's a dirty job but, it has to be done. Toilet hadn't been touched and hair in the shower, moldy shower curtain and handles. More evidence that the cleaning person needs retrained or replaced. Unless it is the owners wife? Two stars
Close proximity to our family reunion and friendly staff. Mattresses were hard, but were being replaced as we were checking out. Microwave in breakfast area did not work.
The rooms were a bit dated but certainly clean enough, and the beds were comfortable. Check in was quick and easy and the people we interacted with were friendly. The common areas and hallways just reek of old smoke, although the rooms do not.
Smoke smell. So bad
Nothing Smoke smell, bed, (lack of) hot water, price e t c. God awful smell, broken toilet and so on
All All was good no problem
Staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was very clean. I was worried having read some of the other reviews but I was very satisfied.
Clean room. Clean bathroom No fridge in room. But I got over it.
The staff was friendly and helpful... But this location is getting worn and run down. Needs some major updating... I booked a nonsmoking room but the hotel put me in a smoking room. They blamed it on third party booking agencies, like Kayak, for over booking. It's not worth the few buck you save if you can't breathe after staying and you smell like shit!! Also room phone didnt work and wifi was terrible!

Piers Morgan and Penn Jillette Discuss Watching Rush Limbaugh Have Sex
The Rush Limbaugh-Sandra Fluke birth control controversy took a disgraceful turn Friday when CNN's Piers Morgan and magician Penn Jillette discussed watching the conservative talker have sex.
The host of Piers Morgan Tonight also said, "I would love to know who Rush Limbaugh has had sex with over the years, how many times he has sex (video follows with transcript and commentary):
PIERS MORGAN, HOST: But when -- when I hear Rush Limbaugh go on like this, he sounds like some archaic --
PENN JILLETTE: Exactly.
MORGAN: -- Dickensian dinosaur. It's like we're -- mate, we're in 2012. You ridiculous, old man.
JILLETTE: I think it's going to be really hard for us to argue about this.
MORGAN: Is it?
JILLETTE: Yes, I agree --
MORGAN: Well, do you -- or do you have a slight position because you're an atheist, that actually -- this is what happens --
JILLETTE: No. No. No.
MORGAN: -- when you -- when you take religion to its extremities?
JILLETTE: Well, I -- I actually think that this does certainly -- anti-sex does start often in religion. But he doesn't -- he doesn't actually mention religion.
MORGAN: I would love to know who Rush Limbaugh has had sex with over the years.
JILLETTE: You would?
MORGAN: How many times he has sex.
JILLETTE: You would?
MORGAN: Yes.
JILLETTE: Oh.
MORGAN: I want to see what he does in his perfect little world. The idea that some student who is taking responsibility for her life, who is probably struggling. I don't know about her case -- but many students struggle financially, because in this country it's very, very expensive to go to college.
JILLETTE: Yes.
MORGAN: Let's wake up and get real. The idea that she wants to take responsibility, she's at law school, and she wants to take responsibility for her life. She's sexually active, and she's saying, "I want to have contraception." This makes her a slut and a prostitute? I think it's absolutely disgusting.
Actually, Limbaugh didn't say Fluke was a slut for wanting to have sex or use birth control. His point was her desire for others to buy her contraceptives was prostitute-like, a distinction that has been completely lost on her supporters in the media.
Another sleight of hand by Limbaugh's detractors has been in depicting Fluke as some young, innocent college student.
Quite the contrary, Reuters reported Saturday that she's a 30-year-old women's rights activist making her hardly the victim the press have made her out to be.
But let's get back to Morgan and Jillette for things really took a turn for the surreal on CNN Friday night:
JILLETTE: I stopped listening right after you said you wanted to know all about Rush having sex.
JILLETTE: I was -- I was so kind of gob smacked by that, because I don't, I'm not sure I share that with you completely.
MORGAN: I'm amazed --
JILLETTE: But I'll get into it. I'll go -- I'll go with you. I'll go with you. I'll go watch Rush Limbaugh have sex with you.
MORGAN: That's perfect.
JILLETTE: I'll do that. I'm not -- I'm not completely comfortable with it.
MORGAN: I actually tell you anything I'd rather let's do than watch him have sex, but I would love to be his interrogatory about his private life as he wants to be about this woman, because she's acting perfectly responsibly.
So it's okay for a CNN anchor and a magician to joke about watching a conservative talk radio host have sex, but it's verboten for said conservative talk radio host to joke about women who have their birth control purchased by taxpayers having to make videos of their sex acts in return?
Doesn't make much sense, does it?

Being a new mum takes a bit of time to get used to – in fact, according to one survey, it takes an average of four months and 23 days.
But the amount of time it can take to feel comfortable I the role can vary, as some mums took up to two years to really feel on top of the motherhood role.
In the survey of 2000 mothers, conducted by British baby brand Munchkin, it was also revealed that 50 per cent of pregnant women were scared or nervous about being a mum, while 25 per cent admitted that the idea was completely daunting.
It didn't get much better after birth, when more than half the mums admitting to being overwhelmed with their new roles. Six in 10 said they went through a period of feeling they weren't capable of being a mother – but the majority said they wouldn't admit that to other mums, as they didn't want to be seen as being a failure.
Munchkin spokesperson, Claire Rayner, said, "It's perhaps reassuring that so many mums went through the same period of worry, as it shows just how common a reaction it is to feel that you might not cope."
Becoming a mum is a massive change, and the flood of self-doubt or worry as to how you'll cope is perfectly natural
Australian lactation consultant Pinky McKay encourages mums to discuss these kinds of feelings with other women.
"There's a conspiracy of silence that isolates mothers, and because they don't want to face criticism they perpetuate the very conspiracy that divides and holds them hostage," she wrote in her article The myth of mummy failure.
"Accept that if things are tough right now it's not your fault, and that it's okay to reach out for help."
So what were the key markers the average mum used to indicate that everything had clicked into place around that five month mark? Getting into a routine, knowing what to do when the baby cried, and not being worried about dealing with the baby in public were the top three things that made them feel like a 'proper mum'.
"[Becoming a mum] is a massive change, and the flood of self-doubt or worry as to how they'll cope is perfectly natural," Rayner said.
"But the fact they care so much only proves what good mums they will eventually develop into."
Top 10 things mums felt had to be mastered before motherhood 'clicked into place'
- Getting a good routine sorted.
- Knowing what to do when the baby cries.
- Not being worried about dealing with the baby in public.
- Not panicking when the baby is sick or has a temperature.
- Always leaving the house with a spare change of baby clothes.
- Never leaving the house without food/milk for the baby.
- Being able to change a nappy quickly.
- Having the baby sleep through the night.
- Feeling able to keep on top of the housework.
- Always having a baby toy in their handbag.
Do you agree with the list? How old was your baby before you felt like you knew what you were doing? Comment below.

Walter Cohen Job Talk
English Literature, European Literature, World Literature
What do world literature and European literature have to tell us about English literature? And what does English literature have to tell us about European and world literature? In pursuing these questions, I provide a historical overview, identifying two overlapping temporal arcs. The first, stretching from the 7th to the 18thcentury, sees the emergence of multiple vernaculars in the Old World, out of high-cultural, cosmopolitan, often Classical literary languages. The second, beginning in the 15th century and extending to the present, witnesses the emergence of a systematically global literature. I conclude by summarizing the findings that emerge from that overview, the methodological assumptions that inform it, and the disciplinary contexts that bear on it. I will focus on matters of form at the expense of theme. In the first arc, form is understood as language and literary language; in the second, more conventionally as standard genres and subgenres. But the argument operates at multiple levels throughout—from versification through literary genres, to language, religion, and history more generally.

Exhausting, educational and fun!: Azamara Journey Cruise Review by nannyja
Overall Member Rating
Exhausting, educational and fun!
Destination: Baltic Sea
Embarkation: Copenhagen
The rooms were small as we expected but very very clean. We were well aware before the cruise of the small showers.. so we anticipated small showers.. They were small but not uncomfortable because the lighting in the bathroom was so good and every corner was immaculate which is very important to us. The decor of the cabin was just lovely and everything looked new and was kept very clean everyday by our wonderful room steward, Mohammed.
We ate breakfast up in Windows at the buffet every morning outside on the deck. The food was always fresh and hot. The waiters were very very attentive to our every need and even remembered how I liked my coffee in the morning. A couple of mornings I More ordered room service at the last minute as I was too tired to go up to the buffet and the breakfast was delivered quite promptly. We loved dining in the Aqualina Dining room the best although Prime C was good also. Daniel the head maitre'd took care of our every need as far as changing and reorganizing nights. He always had a smile and enjoyed helping us..We preferred eating in the other rooms We had 2 days at sea which was really needed as the trip was so land intensive.
Re: the pool area.. It was also immaculate and the deck chairs looked brand new and were very very comfortable. The outside service regarding drinks was great although I didn't care for the bloody Mary's and the margaritas.. The wines served by the glass were just fine.. very drinkable. You could also order more selective wines at dinner if you desired.. We did once but it didn't make that much difference to us and we are pretty picky about our wine.. We did put together a wine connisseur dinner with the case master. It took place in the Prime C restaurant and it was a gourmet dinner prepared for 10. We had a great time.. the food was yummy but one of the wines they served was one that we buy at costco for $12.00 a bottle.. That was a little disappointing but we learned a lot about wines. The head chef came out and described every course and how she prepared it.
The 3 day stop in St. Petersburg was fabulous. We were very happy we scheduled that but it was extremely grueling but very important to see everything we saw. We are both in great condition but there is so much to see and learn! We booked the tour through Azamara and it was just fine. Our tour guide was terrific. Her name was Nadia. Every evening before dinner we would go the the library bar for a cocktail. The bar waiters were also very helpful and wanted to be sure we were happy with our drinks. That area is a great area as it is quiet and a nice place to meet friends for a drink before dinner. The piano music is also lovely by the boutique on level 5. He plays very nice tunes and takes requests. On the nights when we were revived from the days tours, after our delicious dinner we would go dancing where the Diamond Duo would play music from the 50's and one night when we were in Stockholm they played all Abba's tunes. It was perfect for our generation...60-70 years of age!
We thoroughly enjoyed the cruise as you can tell by reading my review so if you want elegance, fun. We feel the cruise is a notch under Silversea and 3 notches above Princess as we have been on all. We loved the fact the the age group and level of sophistication filled our needs.The food was just delicious, the itinerary was perfect .. It was a trip of our dreams! Less

How do you think the new GigE standards will influence the machine vision industry?
Respond or ask your question now!
VANCOUVER , British Columbia, Nov. 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Braintech,Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: BRHI), a leading provider of vision guided roboticsoftware solutions, announced today that it has received an additional orderfrom ABB Canada for a major automotive tier supplier, to identify and locatebrake and axle components in an assembly application using Braintech'ssoftware, eVisionFactory, (eVFTM).
The application, as part of an ABB TrueView(TM) vision guided robotsystem, utilizes Braintech's SC3D(TM) (Single Camera 3D) vision to identify,inspect and locate components in imprecise positions. SC3D first locates abrake assembly in non-precision dunnage and then is used again to accuratelylocate the axle's position on a conveyor for assembly of the two components.In both cases, the required offset information is communicated to the ABBrobot via eVF.
Owen Jones , Braintech's CEO, commented, "We're receiving more requests formaterial handling operations where vision is used both on the 'pick' and'place' of the operation. The value is in the elimination of precisionfixturing on both sides of the process. Through sales and marketing efforts,we expect to see a rising demand for these types of systems from bothautomotive and non-automotive manufacturers."About Braintech For more information, visit www.braintech.com.
