Love, love , love the hair I received and also love the price i bought it at
Best hair I've gotten for a good price, minimum shedding and does not tangle up at all

I purchased this product last week and love these extensions! I cut my hair to my chin about a year ago after having it halfway down my back forever. I love these & will continue to use them for a very long time. They truly are amazing & I'm totally satis
Exceeded my thought. I really love this hair. Very cute and beautiful. Good quality for this price. Super impressed.I highly recommend.

You're reviewing: 16" #30 Body Wave Tape In Human Hair Extensions [TRHBWF1630]
Part hair on scalp into section where application is desired.
Please warm to double sided tape by a straightener or hair drier before using. The glue in the tape will be in perfect condition and can last a long time.
Peel off the label on the tape and apply to sections on the where the wanted hair is desired.
Pull a small section of your own hair over the small taped weft and repeat , and so your own hair is sandwiched between the 2 tapes of hair apply directly by using your hand and press with the double sided tape against the hair you sectioned off.
These must be applied to washed unonitioned hair.the hair must not be washed for at least theee days after aplication.
Keep your hair and scalp clean! When sweat and dirt build up your hair tangles. Use a good quality shampoo and conditioner. Detangle your hair first from the ends to the roots before shampooing. Wash your hair gentle in a downward motion (from the roots to the ends). When you're done rinse your hair thoroughly.Condition your hair after every wash. Dry your hair gently, don't rub it with a towel but move in a downward motion from roots to ends. Gently detangle your hair.
After you get your hair extensions it is best to wait 48 hours before you wash your hair.
It is better to avoid heat. Heat is your one of your hair's biggest enemy, the more you use it, the shorter your hair extensions will last. Be careful with the use of blow dryers, flat irons and curling irons. It is best to let your hair dry naturally.
DON'T sleep on wet hair. A good habit is to tie your hair together in a ponytail to prevent tangling as much as possible.
It is best to store the human hair in it's original container. However, you can store the hair in a plastic bag.To keep the desired curl pattern, you may want to set the hair on rollers that conform to the curl size you wish to maintain before storing in plastic.

Flickers in the Dew
Wonderful! We have resident Flickers I see everyday outside our flat … either foraging among weeds in the sidewalk cracks, or calling out from utility wires. I will think of these sketches next time I see them.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
Is there a form that I need to print out for this notice? How do I go about getting the Police officer notes on this citation? Do i need this to better prepare for my case?
You would enter a "Not Guilty" plea with the clerk of court within 30 days of the ticket. The clerk will set the hearing before a Hearing Officer or County Judge. If you desire to view the officer's notes regarding your ticket you will need to go to the clerk of court and ask to view the file. Inside, you will see the ticket and and any notes the officer made (i.e. Driver's attitude, statements, etc). The officer's statement regarding his observation is key to his case. Obviously, you will state you didn't run the stop sign. You will need to prepare; because you will need to see if the officer wrote the ticket correctly and if not, will those error(s) allow you to ask the Hearing Officer to dismiss the ticket.Ask a similar question
You should definitely retain counsel on this. Depending on where your citation was and who your hearing is in front of, you may end up getting a raw deal. There are multiple different hearing officers in Pinellas county, whether you're north county or south county or over at night court at the real court house. . . each magistrate has a unique way of dealing with stop sign tickets- namely, that if it's your word against the officers, they'll basically always believe the officer. So I strongly recommend your defense include one or two additional witnesses. . . Just my honest practical experience watching pro se citation hearings in pinellas county. Sounds like you're doing your research and you're showing up prepared, and that's a great start. Best of luck to you.Ask a similar question

Vision of the Seas - Mexican Riviera: Vision of the Seas Cruise Review by Howard Kraft
Overall Member Rating
Vision of the Seas - Mexican Riviera
Destination: Mexican Riviera
Embarkation: Los Angeles
Ship- One enters the ship on Deck 4 and you will be instantly enchanted by the Centrum, a 7 deck, beautifully decorated atrium with glass elevators. There, you will encounter the first of the 5 on board lounges, the Champagne Lounge. The Vision has a 2 story dining room called the Aquarius which is located on Decks 4 and 5. The Aquarius is lovely and although accommodating 1000 passengers never feels crowded. On Decks 5 and 6 you will find the Masquerade Theater, a beautifully two tiered showroom where your nightly entertainment can be found. On Deck 5 is the Casino Royale with many slot machines and about 10 tables for your standard casino More games. Also on Deck 5 you will locate the Pursers Desk as well as the Shore Excursion desk. On Deck 6 you will find 3 lounges; the Schooner, Showboat and Some Enchanted Evening (one must go through the Schooner or Showboat to get to the Some Enchanted Evening). Also on Deck 6 are the duty free shops with everything from liquor to diamonds for sale at good prices. This is set up as if in an upscale mall and links the Centrum to the Masquerade Theater. On Deck 7 is the Library and Card room. On Deck 8 is the Internet Cafe (50 cents per minute of internet use) and also the Crown and Anchor study with an office for the Loyalty Ambassador (this person can book future RCI cruises for you and helps past RCI cruisers who have joined the club).
On Deck 9 is the Windjammer Cafe, a casual buffet dining room open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Also you will find both pools on Deck 9. Both pools are salt water and the spas are fresh water. The main pool is fairly small with an ample amount of lounge chairs around it. It also has 4 small spas and a bar area. On the other end of the ship is the Solarium Pool. This is also a small pool with a retractable roof (never saw it open), 2 spas, loungers, a bar and a cafe serving Hamburgers, Hot Dogs and Pizza as well as other snacks. The entrance to the Ship Shape Center and Spa Salon are near the rear. On the open Deck 10, just over the outdoor pool are many more loungers. On the other end is the entrance to the gym, and the Rock Climbing Wall as well as shuffleboard. On Deck 11, mid ship you will find the Viking Crown Lounge. This is a 360 degree, large glass windowed observation deck during the day and disco at night. The entire ship is beautifully appointed and clean.
Service- Absolutely top notch. From your room steward to your dining room staff to the fantastic Cruise Director's staff, you will be treated like a King or Queen. In the evening turn down service, your room steward will leave you the Compass, a newsletter describing all of the ships activities for the next day. Also, you will have a chocolate placed on your bed and some very interesting towel art (towels folded into the shapes of various animals). By day 2 our waiter from the Philippines and assistant waiter from Hungry knew us by name as well as what beverages we like with our meals. You will not even have to ask. Our head waiter from India would stop by every night to see how everything was going and to offer some tips on what to do in port or on the ship the next day.
Food and Beverage- We ate in the Aquarius Dining Room for all of our dinners except the night in Puerto Vallarta, where we had a dinner excursion. There are 2 (formal) nights, although most men wore suits over tuxedos. The women looked absolutely glamorous in their fine evening wear. These we nights 2 and 6 (both days at sea, so plenty of time for you ladies to get ready). Each night there are 4 or 5 different entree's offered as well as 5 standard alternatives, along with a choices of appetizers and scrumptious desserts. The food is prepared perfectly and almost everything was delicious. The portions tend to be small, but don't be afraid to ask for seconds or even order 2 separate entree's. The dining room has tables of anywhere from 4 to 8 people. We were assigned to a table for 8 and enjoyed the company of the other couples very much. We had asked for and were granted the 2nd seating for dinner (8:30 P.M.). Breakfast and lunch are unassigned seating. We had only 1 breakfast and no lunches in the dinning room. Most folks use the Windjammer Cafe for breakfast and lunch, as we did. For breakfast they have scrambled eggs, pre-prepared omelets, waffles, pancakes, French toast, cereals, breakfast meats, toast, english muffins and bagels, fruit, pastries and orange and passion fruit/guava juice. Lunch varied with some excellent soups and fabulous desserts. We did not try the buffet for dinner, but heard it was very good.
Day 5, after departing Puerto Vallarta, there is a pig roast and barbecue on the pool deck followed by dancing under the stars. Day 6 brings us the Gala Midnight Buffet in the dining room. Opens at 11:15 for picture taking (trust me, you want to do this) and at midnight for eating it all(WARNING-People who have a tendency to explode should skip this). Overall the food gets a 9 out of 10 on my scale.
Entertainment- All I can say is TOP NOTCH! There were 2 comedians, 2 singers, a ventriloquist/comedian and the Royal Caribbean Singers and Dancers who do production numbers on nights 2 and 6. Their voices are strong and their energy boundless. The Cruise Director John Blair and his wife/assistant Katrina and their entire staff were just fantastic. They run all the on board activities, from bingo to trivia games and game shows to the mens sexy legs (I won a medal), belly flop and horse racing contests by the pool, to Karaoke. These were the friendliest and hardest working folks you would ever want to meet. The Shari Cafaro trio in the Champagne Lounge were very good and Shari also opens for the ventriloquist. The show band in the Some Enchanted Evening Lounge (Breazen) was not very good at all. The Schooner Lounge is your piano bar and the guy cane really play. What he lacks in vocal quality he makes up for with energy and enthusiasm.
Ports of Call- We only booked one excursion through the ship and that was the Rythmes of the Night in Puerto Vallarta. In Cabo, we took a glass bottom boat tour out to th Arch and Lovers Beach and Sea Lion colony in the morning. This the the only place in the world where 2 seas meet (Sea of Cortez and Pacific Ocean). In the afternoon we walked and shopped. The town is all right there by the tender pier. In Mazatlan, we hooked up with a time share group. They took us out to a beautiful resort, fed us lunch and some great Mai Tai's. Only took 90 minutes of out time. No high pressure sales. No meant no and then we had the rest of the day to lounge and drink and eat at this beautiful resort. In Puerto Vallarta we went parasailing in the morning, walked the Malecon and shopped in the afternoon and took the Rythmes of the Night excursion that evening. If you have never parasailed, I highly recommend trying it. The Rythmes of the Night was fantastic. Boat ride with open bar out to Los Celatas (this was the home of Director John Houston and was where he filmed Night of the Iguana and also Predator was filmed there). We had a buffet dinner on the beach by torchlight, walked and toured the area and then walked up into the jungle where an ancient Indian ceremony was performed. Very beautiful. I may have drank too much Rum Punch though.
A Few Tips For You- On the ship, the only cash you would use is in the casino. For everything else you use a SetSail pass, a card that serves as your boarding document, room key and credit card. You set this up prior to departure with either a credit card or cash. You can pre-register this on line on the Royal Caribbean web site, saving you a lot of time. Cabo is a tendered port. This means the ship cannot dock at the pier. Small boats called Tender Boats take you back and forth from the ship. Tender tickets are handed out by the piano on Deck 4 in the Centrum starting at 9:00 A.M. on Day 3. Passengers start lining up for the tickets at 8:30. The earlier you get a ticket, the earlier you get off the ship and start your fun in Cabo. Note- If you have a shore excursion booked in Cabo through Royal Caribbean, you do not need a tender ticket. Gratuities- Royal Caribbean gives you a choice as to whether or not you want to use cash or charge these to your SetSail card. They will supply you with envelopes on Day 6 and if you chose to charge them to your card, they will deliver vouchers to place in the envelopes to your cabin. Otherwise, use the envelopes to place the cash in. If you chose to put it on the card, it is $68.25 per person which breaks down like this: $3.50 per person per day for both the waiter and cabin steward, $2.00 per day per person for the assistant waiter and $.75 per person per day for the head waiter. Watch You Liquor Consumption- Many times the motion of the ship and the booze do not mix well. Also it is very easy to runup a very large SetSail bill at the end of the trip. They are pushing booze everywhere. Rythmes of the Night- Book this excursion well before you cruise on the Royal Caribbean site. By the time we sailed, it was sold out. Many people were disappointed. Lose 10 pounds now, you will gain it back in this week.
In conclusion, this was the best vacation I have ever had. My wife says the same. I commend Royal Caribbean for their excellence.
Have fun and happy cruising! Feel free to email me with any questions at email@example.com Less

This burger was inspired by one of my previous beef burger entries for Build a Better Burger 2006. I realized that the flavors would work equally well with turkey and they did.
I live in East Texas and East Texans love to grill and love the Cajun influence of being so close to Louisiana.
I love Caprese salad and thought about combining those flavors on a burger.
A great tasting better for you burger!

A Mason Jar Fit For A Mojito
Mason jars are the perfect all-purpose summer mug. Great for everything from your morning iced coffee to your evening mixed drink, they look cool while keeping your libations cool, too. And that's why I'm totally crazy about this "Drinking Situation" mug from In God We Trust, which takes the typical mason jar up a few notches. Complete with a travelin' safe screw-top and a sipping straw, the Drinking Situation mug will quickly replace virtually every glass you own, not to mention all those pesky to-go cups you're always picking up that are bad for the environment and don't look that cute, either.

text: Hi guys and gals. I am about to set up a Media Center using apple products. I will be buying a mac mini for the main device and a couple external drives for storage of movies and music. That mac mini will be in the living room connected to a 42incher. I have 2 Apple TV's 3. 1 in my room and 1 in my kids room. The are both connected via ethernet. I have a Hackintosh in the computer room, my son has a hackintosh in his room and I have a MBP for my use that no one else touches. I would like to use home sharing from itunes, but would hate to have to log in with my main apple id. Is it possible to create a new, Family ID that I can log in on all devices with to enable home sharing and still use my personal id on the macbook pro? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

With roaring war drums, in the spirit of the well-known Summoning, Numenor, a talented Serbian epic black metal band, takes the underground stage by storm. What we have before us is their first official appearance, if we disregard the Tolkien Compilation where they also made a generous contribution.
Numenor music can hardly be described in just one word. True, the roots of this band reach deep into symphonic black metal soil, but the music brims with many other elements as well - elements that defy all attempts to assign a definite label to this coterie of skilled musicians. The music is symphonic and also atmospheric - at times even progressive black, but still largely within the boundaries of symphonic black.
One thing the listener won't fail to notice is a distinct, inescapable war-like feel to the first song Monarchy Divine. If you ask me, this song is the absolute highlight of the whole split CD. Think of symphonic black metal, but with a touch of that ancient warrior spirit found in Moonsorrow's music. This makes the music very epic, grand, with various symphonic elements, outstanding guitars and mind-blowing drums that would put to shame even the war drums of the Orcs! The black metal vocal is quite grim, strong and delivers a lasting impression. Marko's vocal borders between deep death metal vocal and harsh black metal - a truly interesting and effective blend.
Whereas this first song, Monarchy Divine, has the mark of a warlike anthem, the second song, Once We Were Kings, is darker and bleaker, even doomish at times! Justly so, considering that it tells the story of the Ring Wraiths and their descent into darkness. Much of Numenor music, in accordance with the band's name, is inspired by Tolkien's books. If Shagrat, the leader of the Uruc Hai, had had a CD collection, Dynasty of The Realm Beyond would have definitely been among his most prized possessions.
In conclusion, in a land where symphonic black metal is poorly developed, Numenor have taken upon themselves to carry the torch and stand as a shiny example of how symphonic black metal should sound. We can only hope that more Serbian bands will soon follow in their path!
The second part of this release is a Belgrade band Forlorn Wisp. The music of these musicians can easily be described as based on the sound of early Blind Guardian. On close inspection, we find a strong influence of Persuader and Savage Circus. The band presents three songs on the split CD. The first, Astral Shade, has an odd structure and unusual melodies. The second song, The Glade, is by far the best. It's dominated by keyboards. Of all the three songs, only this one has a precise structure with a chorus and pre-chorus, not to mention very catchy melodies. To some extent, this song reminds us of Blind Guardian: 'Nightfall in Middle Earth' album. The third song, The Pawn's Choice is the most unusual of the tree, although it has a very phantasmagoric and dark atmosphere. Besides classic power metal parts, The Pawn's Choice contains some strong riffs, more in the spirit of trash metal than power metal.
The most striking about this metal band are the vocal abilities of the young singer Nikola; the vocal is much like Hansi Kurch's from his earlier phase. In conclusion, the music is not bad. The band certainly has good ideas, though, at times, there was a bit of emptiness in the music.

Question: Whenever I give assignments or information to one of my employees, she writes it all down in a planning system in her huge binder. The problem is that she doesn't do much with the information that she enters. She misses deadlines and lets other work fall through the cracks, but she always reminds others about their work. How should I deal with her?
Answer: Your employee apparently regards planning as a writing exercise as opposed to a functional process to help organize her work, track her progress, and meet the objectives. It also sounds like she is more interested in using her notes to exert control over others.
Rather than focusing on this employee's so-called planning system, you should focus on her performance per se. Whether she uses a binder or the most high-tech planner in the world, the reality is that she is not effectively carrying out her job responsibilities. You should meet with her to discuss her performance shortfalls, and then discuss some specific strategies to help her get back on track.
If her first step is to pull out the big binder and start writing down your comments, you should review whatever she is writing and fine-tune it as needed in order establish a real action plan with specific goals, dates, deadlines, and priorities. It is time for her to stop thinking of her planning system as a diary or tickler for her fellow employees, and start using it to truly organize her work and meet the established performance expectations. If her work continues to miss the mark, she should understand that a different kind of writing may come into play. It's called a write-up.
Question: I have an employee who marks every email he sends with a "high importance" icon. At first, I rushed to open his email, but it did not take me long to determine that he is using this tactic to get people to read what he writes. I suggested that he reserve this icon for communications that are really important, and he said that he only uses it for such email. That's simply untrue. Is there a way to get him to use this icon more discretely?
Answer: You told this employee that you would like him to refrain from classifying all of his email as "high importance," and that should have been the end of this matter.
His refusal could be due to any number of factors. For example, perhaps he truly believes that everything he says is of major importance. Unfortunately, this type of thinking is rather delusional. Maybe he is so self-centered that he cannot stand the thought of having you read someone else's email ahead of his. Or, he could be lazy and simply assume that since he cannot write a compelling subject line, he'll take the easy way out and tack this label onto his email.
Tell him that you have no choice but to disregard the high-importance indicator on his email because it doesn't accurately describe the relevance of the messages he is sending. Perhaps he needs to hear a high-tech version of boy who called wolf. Namely, there once was an employee who labeled all of his email as "high importance," to the point that everyone ignored it. And then one day when the employee actually sent a very important email, well, you know the rest. And speaking of messages that are important, he should realize that listening to his manager's messages is highly important.

APC handles large wind power project[2013-11-13]
The Project Department of APC Asia Pacific Cargo handles their largest wind power project to date, when they, early November, undertook the handling and shipping of ten 3MW wind power turbines , including wings, towers and foundation rings, from China to Sweden. The total shipment, carried on a chartered vessel, has a volume of to close to 50,000 cbm, and a weight of 5,000 tons. The sea voyage is expected to take 40 days from Jiangyin port, close to Shanghai, to Karlshamn port, in the south of Sweden. The turbines will then be taken by land, and erected on a site 40 km south west of Kalmar city.
Last year, APC handled two 3 MW wind power turbines from the same supplier, Sinovel,but to a different buyer in Sweden. That time, the turbines had to be re-loaded in Antwerp, using smaller coasters capable of navigating the canal into the Vänern, in order to get as close as possible to the site, located 30 km north east of the city of Karlstad.
Each unit are among the largest ever erected in Sweden, with wings measuring 55 meters in length, mounted on a tower, 95 meter high. Each Nacelle alone has a weight of more than 120 tons, that has to be hoisted into place, using one of the largest mobile crane available, with a capacity of 700 tons.

West Virginia man found dead in truck
State police are investigating the death of a West Virginia man found in a truck Tuesday morning along Ralph-New Geneva Road in German Township.
Coroner Dr. Phillip E. Reilly identified the man as Jonathan Johnson, 31, of Lynco, W.Va.
Reilly said the death was not the result of a motor vehicle accident, but that the truck was found in a ditch at approximately 7 a.m.
A female passenger in the truck was taken to Brownsville Tri-County Hospital for treatment of an undisclosed illness or injury, Reilly said. Her identity was not available last night.
"It's still up in the air," Reilly said of Johnson's cause of death. "There was no major trauma. It's a complicated story to put together."
He said an autopsy would be performed on Johnson.
State police did not have a report on the incident last night.
Municipal meeting
planned for Thursday
Michael Edwards, executive director of the Connellsville Redevelopment Authority, said a multimunicipal plan meeting will take place at 3 p.m. Thursday in city hall. Connellsville, Connellsville Township and South Connellsville are working on a cooperative agreement that will benefit all three communities by allowing them to access grant money. All three communities will have to approve the agreement.
Edwards said the Pennsylvania Environmental Council will hold a design charette at a time to be announced from Dec. 12 through Dec. 14. The public input session will tie in with the Main Street building facade program. Edwards said business owners will be inspired by possible facade ideas at the sessions.
Charges filed in theft
of metal from resort
A Fayette County man was charged with stealing more than $7,000 of copper and steel pipe from Nemacolin Woodlands Resort in Wharton and damaging a steel awning valued at $5,000.
Michael David Yauger, 42, of 291 Turkeyfoot Road, Lemont Furnace, is charged with theft and criminal mischief.
The incidents occurred between April 19 and July 26, state police reported.
According to a criminal complaint filed with Uniontown District Judge Wendy Dennis, Yauger removed 12 feet of steel pipe valued at $2,000, copper pipe valued at $5,000 and steel studs valued at $127.50 from the resort.
Police said the first theft occurred around April 19 and the steel pipe came from a ski lodge pump house.
Around July 8, two witnesses saw Yauger destroy the steel awning, according to the complaint.
Surveillance video from July 25 shows Yauger stealing the copper piping and steel beams from a parking garage, police said.
On Oct. 9, Yauger admitted to police that he stole the copper pipe from the parking garage and said he cut up the steel awning. He said he took the steel pipe from the ski lodge but that he had permission to take it.
Yauger is free on $25,000 unsecured bond.
Pit bull reported stolen
from pen in yard
A woman reported her 4-year-old male pit bull was stolen from her Redstone residence late Sunday or early Monday.
Toya Madison of Cardale told state police the dog was secured in a pen in her yard.
The dog was described as white with brown spots and weighing about 25 pounds.
Anyone with information on the missing dog is asked to call state police at 724-439-7111.
South Huntingdon
Amtrak train strikes
water tanker truck
No injuries were reported in an accident involving a water tanker truck and an Amtrak train in South Huntingdon early Tuesday.
Amtrak spokeswoman Tracy Connell said the train "clipped the trailer portion of the truck."
Westmoreland County Department of Public Safety spokesman Dan Stevens said it appeared the truck was crossing the tracks when it was struck by the train at approximately 7 a.m.
"There were no injuries, no hazmat (called), no evacuations," Stevens said.
Connell said the Capitol Limited East was on its route between Chicago and Washington, D.C. and was carrying about 150 passengers. Its arrival in Washington was delayed about 90 minutes.
Smithton Fire Department spokesman Marty Ponebshek identified the driver of the tanker as Shawn Spiker of Somerset.
Ponebshek said the accident occurred between Smithton and Jacobs Creek.
The train sustained front-end damage and Spiker's truck was demolished, Ponebshek said.
1-vehicle crash
lands driver in hospital
A Jefferson County woman was hospitalized Monday after a one-vehicle accident in Fayette County.
State police said Geraldine M. Nedrow, 67, of Clover was southbound on Bear Rocks Road in Bullskin and lost control of her vehicle. The car traveled off the roadway and struck a tree at the intersection of Bear Rocks and Brown roads, police said.
Nedrow was transported to Allegheny General Hospital in Pittsburgh, where she was listed in serious condition Tuesday.
Pennsylvania receives
Attorney General Tom Corbett announced the state will receive more than $5.5 million as part of a national settlement with Pennsylvania-based drug maker Cephalon, Inc.
Corbett said the settlement resolves that Cephalon engaged in improper off-label marketing for the drugs Actiq, a pain reliever used to treat cancer patients; Gabitril, a medication used to treat seizures; and Provigil, which is used to treat sleep disorders. Cephalon had been accused of promoting uses for those drugs that were not approved by the Food and Drug Administration.
Pennsylvania's Medicaid program is receiving $5,577,859 as part of the national settlement. The settlement funds include repayment of excessive charges for prescription drugs that were allegedly made by the state Medicaid program as the result of Cephalon's off-label marketing, along with damages and penalties.
Corbett said the settlement agreement also includes a "Corporate Integrity Agreement" with Cephalon that requires strict scrutiny of future marketing and sales practices.
Corbett said the Pennsylvania settlement with Cephalon is part of a $425 million national agreement that resolves various federal and state allegations against the company.

Once users are aware of what's being offered, they should then have the option to opt in. Leaving them without a choice at all is downright antisocial, but even an opt-out does not go far enough because many nonspecialist users click through without reading, trusting the code developer not to pass on malware. In most cases, an opt-out clause is tantamount to deception and abuse of trust.
Finally, and especially for software that has to be updated regularly or will be part of an install workflow, there should be a download freely available that contains only the software the user is installing and that does not perform any additional actions.
Summing all this up, I suggest seven metrics for identifying best practice in download services:
- Developer opts in and is compensated
- Developer is in control of installer behavior
- User opts in to installs rather than needing to actively opt out
- All installer behavior is transparent; no surprises or side effects, including global system changes
- The software is honestly described; any special issues or undesirable behavior are not obfuscated
- Malware is not permitted and there are no pop-ups, pop-unders, and so on in the sideloaded code
- An alternative non-installer download is provided
So far, SourceForge's DevShare seems to score well against this metric. The example project SourceForge directed me to, FileZilla, offers to sideload a Windows application that claims to secure Wi-Fi connections. As you can see from the screenshot, this utility might well ring alarm bells -- it's ad-supported, and it inserts itself in network traffic -- but the description provides that information, and the install requires a positive opt-in from the user.
SourceForge representative Roberto Galoppini told me that the company positively vets all software sideloads and checks them for unacceptable behavior, including popups/pop-unders and undeclared tracking. In a competitive market for in-app advertising, SourceForge goes as far as it can in avoiding deceptive offers, according to Galoppini. This can even lead to improvements in the original application being downloaded. SourceForge checks that there's a mechanism to uninstall both the original application and anything the user opts to sideload.
For projects that want to monetize their downloads along with getting full download statistics, the new SourceForge offering looks promising. It's a welcome change from the assumption by some download-only hosts that they have an exclusive right to monetize in any way they like, even to the extent of deceiving users. In particular, SourceForge's claims to prevet the software and to ensure uninstalls are possible are refreshing. I'll be interested to watch uptake as the offering heads to a full release.

how to solve y= 3cos2x + 5
pls help me
Is that really cos(2x) or do you mean cos^2 x?
I will assume that you really do mean cos(2x). In that case
cos(2x) = cos^2 x - sin^2 x
= 2 cos^2 x -1
y = 6 cos^2x -3 + 5 = 6 cos^2 x - 2
cos^2 x = (y+2)/6
cos x = sqrt[(y+2)/6)]
You can use that to solve for x, if that is what the question is all about.
You cannot solve a single equation for both x and y.


text: Styleforum Friends, I have been a longtime beneficiary of all of the advice on these forums and am excited to contribute for the first time. I have been spending quite a bit of time and effort looking for a plain navy suit. I am hoping to wear this suit at my wedding and then at many occasions after. I do not wear a suit daily or even weekly so durability is not as high on the priority list as straight up bad ass fasion. As per advice on the forums, I have been trying to stay patient and find the perfect suit. Point of reference: I am 5'10'' and weigh 170lbs. My first effort in finding this suit was the Ludlow from J.Crew. I used quite a few sportcoats from J.Crew but do not own any suiting. I ordered in my usual J.Crew Sizes: 38s and 31X30 in the slim trousers. When the suit arrived it has cut way too tight. I could fit into both items but the trousers were too tight, the lapels bowed significantly, and there was significant pull across the back (sorry, no pics). I returned and ordered 40s and 32X20. The pants fit well the second time around but the jacket was too large. After a bit more research, I decided that I would try a Suitsupply London fit. I followed the Suitsupply sizing advice and ordered a 38r. I decided on the London because I definitely like the traditional English tailored look and a lower button stance. When I received the suit, I could immediately appreciate the attention to detail and the quality in the garment. I was impressed. Unfortunately, the suit just didn't do it for me. You can see the pics below. I think the shoulders of the jacket fit but it could have been cut trimmer around the midsection and the sleeves would need to be altered (more difficult due to the functioning button holes). The pants needed some serious work. The waist (supposedly a 32 but I would guess 35) needed to be taken in. The legs also needed to be taken in and tailored. Of course, hemming would have been necessary. More than the fit, I just thought the suit was not for me. It was was more Tom Ford than Thom Browne (I guess I lean a little more toward the undersized, minimal style). The lapels were relatively wide. The suit was cut longer. This type of cut seems to be consistent across the different Suitsupply cuts. I recognize the most of these criticisms (other that the lapels) can be tailored away (at significant costs) but eventually I came to the conclusion that turning this suit into what I was looking for would be way harder than just finding a different suit that met my personal aesthetic. So... I actually, recently found I suit that I am really excited about but I am scared to share it with the community. At the insistence of my mother and other family friends, I went to Nordstrom's. I went with low expectations. I knew many of their "designer" products were low quality and high priced. However, the first suit that I tried on was perfect. It was a Hugo Boss in a size 38s. Yes, it was fused. Yes, it was not 100% wool. But, it fits incredibly well and I feel like a million bucks in it - which is exactly how you are supposed to feel when you put on the right suit. The pic above is from the store (sorry about the lighting and I know those shoes are inappropriate). The pants are currently being hemmed. If you guys want I can post pictures once I get the suit back. Thanks for letting me share my story. I hope it helps others on their journey to find the right suit. As far as morals to the story, I would say 1) Suitsupply is high quality stuff but has a powerful look that isn't for everyone and 2) it never hurts to take a look ... you never know what you may find.

Paleofantasy. Let's see. On grassy plain in skimpy leather, gathering grasses for tea, dragged off to cave by equally scantily clad big taciturn type with large club …
No, wait, that's not what evolutionary biologist Marlene Zuk's book title meant at all.
Rather, she was referring to the idea that the reason so many of us are unhealthy and miserable is that we are slow evolving, so our bodies have not had time to adapt to our contemporary circumstances.
Followers of the palaeo fad believe the solution to being healthier and happier is to live more like our ancient ancestors. That means eating heaps of meat (grass-fed only), few vegetables and no dairy.
It means eschewing not just factory foods but all grains, because grains are the result of agriculture, which was the start of all our problems. And it means exercising in short, sharp bursts, as if hunting mammoths.
The kindest thing Zuk has to say about the palaeo diet is that it is probably better than junk food. She dismantles the implicit assumption that we somehow stopped evolving when our bodies were perfectly adapted to the palaeolithic environment. Instead of being set in the Stone Age, we are always adapting to our changing living conditions. Mutations can occur well within 10,000 years, however short that span may be in evolutionary terms, Zuk argues. Exhibit one is development of the gene that allows us to digest milk even after weaning, thought to have occurred after cattle were domesticated about 7000 years ago.
Meanwhile, if you're looking for me, I'll not be out gathering grasses but browsing on cavemanforum.com. I might try the method that was celticcavegirl's helpful response to unwashed_ape's (rather plaintive, I thought) request for advice about palaeo biscuits. Just adapt a normal biscuit recipe by substituting palaeo flour (made from chestnuts), maple syrup for the sugar and use guar or xanthan gum to bind it instead of butter, milk or eggs.
On reflection, I might not be that adaptable. Pass the muesli bar.

Amazon Profit Drops in Q4 2011 Earnings Report
Tiffany Kaiser
February 1, 2012 10:42 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos with Kindle Fire tablet
(Source: minnpost.com)
Analysts place blame for profit drop on increased spending on new products like the Kindle Fire
Amazon released its fourth-quarter earnings from 2011 today, showing off its massive holiday success with e-readers and its
Kindle Fire tablet
, yet still missing previous estimates.
Amazon reported a 35 percent increase in net sales from $12.95 billion in Q4 2010 to $17.43 billion in Q4 2011. Despite the increase, the company missed Bloomberg analyst expectations of $18.3 billion.
Amazon also saw a 58 percent drop in quarterly profit from $416 million, or 91 cents per share, in Q4 2010 to $177 million, or 38 cents per share, in Q4 2011.
Amazon reported $260 million in Q4 2011 operating income, down from $474 million in Q4 2010. Operating cash flow increased 12 percent to $3.90 billion, up from $3.50 billion in 2010, and free cash flow fell 17 percent to $2.09 billion from $2.52 billion in 2010.
The online retailer ended Q4 2011 with 56,200 employees, which is a 67 percent increase from Q4 2010.
For the full-year 2011, net sales jumped 41 percent from $34.20 billion in 2010 to $48.08 billion in 2011. Operating income fell 39 percent to $862 million from $1.41 billion in 2010, and net income dropped 45 percent to $631 million ($1.37 per share) from $1.15 billion ($2.53 per share) in 2010.
While Amazon's first entry into the tablet arena, the Kindle Fire, was
wildly successful
with both Fire and other Kindle e-reader unit sales increasing 177 percent during the nine-week holiday period ending December 31, 2011 from the same period in 2010, the products were clearly slow to pay off. Increased spending on the
Kindle Fire
as well as other new products and facilities put a dent in the company's profits.
"We are grateful to the millions of customers who purchased the Kindle Fire and Kindle e-reader devices this holiday season, making Kindle our bestselling product across both the U.S. and Europe," said Jeff Bezos, founder and CEO of Amazon.com. "Our millions of third-party sellers had a tremendous holiday season with 65% unit growth and now represent 36% of total units sold."
Amazon predicts its Q1 2012 revenue to land between $12 billion and $13.4 billion with a $200 million operating loss and $100 million operating profit. Analysts were hoping for a Q1 2012 revenue of $13.41 billion.
"Well, there may be a reason why they call them 'Mac' trucks! Windows machines will not be trucks." -- Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer

Pioneers knew how to spin, weave and sew along with the many other chores needed just to survive. With all the labor required every day just to persevere, why would they take the extra time to learn the additional skills and techniques to decorate basic everyday objects? We'll go back in time and try to understand the creative heart of the pioneers.
Pioneer Pets
Could your pet make it in the Old West? How do you pet a chicken? Can you envision your pampered lap cat with the job title of "Rat Killer"? Just like the pioneer children, the animals had chores too! During your workshop, learn a lesson in Donkey Care 101, what Fluffy would have to do to earn her keep and more.

Steve Carell is done with Dunder Mifflin.
He completed his last day of shooting on NBC's The Office on Friday, wrapping up nearly seven seasons on the sitcom. Co-star Rainn Wilson broke the news when he tweeted,
Steve Carell's last day on 'The Office.' And the angels of comedy wept... #saddestdayever.
Mindy Kaling also tweeted:
Fun people descending the set for Steve's last scene. @KenTremendous aka Mose Shrute is here!
Carell announced in June that he would be leaving the series, and he's exiting before the season runs out, allowing Will Ferrell to appear in four episodes.
"He is the new manager that Michael Scott has brought in to replace him, but we kind of swiftly realize that that's a terrible idea. Terrible," Wilson told MTV News last week.
Just in: The one-hour finale of The Office airs May 19 at 9 p.m.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) As anguished conservatives protested the confirmation of the first openly gay Episcopal bishop, church leaders weary of debating homosexuality are tackling yet another divisive issue: blessing ceremonies for same-sex couples.
The House of Bishops, composed of bishops from around the country, voted Wednesday to reject a proposal to draft an official liturgy for the ceremonies which are already performed in some parishes.
But by voice vote, they overwhelmingly approved a document saying: We recognize that local faith communities are operating within the bounds of our common life as they explore and experience liturgies celebrating and blessing same-sex unions.
There was disagreement over the significance of the statement, which needs final approval from the clergy and laity in the House of Deputies. A vote could come as soon as Thursday.
Bishops already decide whether to permit same-sex blessing ceremonies in their own dioceses.
But the Episcopal gay advocacy groups Claiming the Blessing and Integrity said that, if approved, the measure would be the first time the church acknowledged in a national document that such ceremonies are held.
Bishop Robert Ilhoff of Maryland said the statement had little practical effect: It continues the policy that is in effect in all our dioceses.
Ilhoff said he understood why gay advocates would consider it a victory, because it brings the practice to the surface.
Bishop Keith Ackerman of Quincy, Ill., called it recognition without approval that allows bishops to continue to set local policy.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 14/5/2014 (1170 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Progressive Conservative Leader Brian Pallister has a new radio ad that promotes his party's court fight against the NDP hike of provincial sales tax last year.
The ad will start running Thursday.
Pallister's Tories are taking the NDP to court June 4, claiming the NDP ran afoul of the law by hiking the PST one point to eight per cent without holding a public referendum, as required under the 1995 Taxpayer Protection Act.
Here's the text of the ad:
I'm Brian Pallister.
The Progressive Conservatives are standing up for all Manitobans. We are taking the NDP to court on June 4th to have the PST increase reversed.
In the last election the NDP promised not to increase taxes. They raised the PST while taking away the chance for Manitobans to vote on the increase.
In fact, the NDP is going to court to fight against Manitobans. The PCs are standing up for Manitobans.
We're standing up for you.
I'm Brian Pallister.

They asked which was his inn, and gazed foolishly at the sooty flue-branchings of the Pipes.
There was about Merlier a smell of death like the smell of sooty smoke.
Aye, it's worse where there's nown, but on yer oath now d'ye think sooty Ann washed her han's?
He would like to be with her at a sap-boiling, in the sooty shadows.
All this while the sooty bundle was lying on the brick hearth at the feet of the startled Corner House girls.
I am encircled with squalor, with hunger, rage, and sooty desperation.
It was highly fitting for sooty little Tom, seeing he had to turn into something, to become a Water Baby.
And into what a heaven—a vault as of hell, sooty black, from which soot descended!
He came out down the passage, unwashed and sooty, straight from his work.
The ascending air was hot, and had a heavy, sooty, paraffiny smell.

Can you guess where I'm eating a burrito jolted with jalapeños?
Lori Midson
I've cruised by this Mexican joint more times than I can count, and last night, after a long day, I finally pulled into the parking lot, and what I found inside was a gracious staff, a small but festive dining room and a menu that made it hard to choose what to order. I settled on a burrito smothered with hot green chile -- and it was -- plumped with carne asada and specks of fresh jalapeños.
Can you guess where I'm eating?

Metal Master Easy Cut Metal Cleaner & Final Shine and
More Britemax Products:
Britemax Black Max Swirl Remover |
Britemax Review Intro |
Britemax Metal Polish |
Britemax Spray & Shine |
Grime Out
Metal Master Easy Cut and Final Shine look, feel and smell different than
any of the similar types of products that we've tried. Their purpose
is to polish bare metal or chrome and the formula includes some
precipitates, so the bottles must be shaken thoroughly prior to and during
They use petroleum distillates, which apparently endow them
with better cleaning properties than other metal polishes, but which also
give them a heavy chemical smell. We recommend using these products in
a well-ventilated area!
Although we still haven't found a "rub on buff out" product that will
restore bare semi-rough oxidized aluminum castings, such as cylinder heads
and engine casings, Easy Cut and Final Shine do a remarkable
job on most bare metals, especially aluminum.
The liquid is very thin, so a little will go a long way. It doesn't
take much effort to apply either product. They seem to produce an outstanding shine on
chrome and aluminum, two of the most common metals used on motorcycles.
Easy Cut is designed to clean light to heavy oxidation, while Final Shine and Sealant can be used alone as a metal cleaner and
polish to remove light oxidation on chrome and stainless steel or as a
follow-up after an initial treatment with Easy Cut.
We found Final Shine to be the fastest and easiest to use chrome polish
of any that we've
tried, and it produces an outstanding shine on most metals, especially
chrome exhaust pipes and aluminum pieces. We were not able to remove
exhaust pipe bluing with either product, but they were not explicitly
designed for that.
Final Shine leaves a slippery, "waxy" feel on the chrome that
we assume is the
claimed protective finish. The metal parts that we treated developed a deep shine
very quickly.
We did notice that it isn't as effective on some metals (albeit with unknown
properties), such as the metal body of a Progressive shock absorber.
We're not sure if the shock absorber body is made from aluminum or if it's
clear-coated, but the deep shine effect wasn't as noticeable as it was on mufflers
and other chrome bits.
We created a new category, called "Chrome/Aluminum Polish" in our "Best
in Class" list for this pair.
