Makeup Bag: 10 Product Picks For A Summer-Proof Face
I'm convinced that I am one of melting makeup's worst victims. I have serious issues keeping my face on the other nine months of the year, let alone summer, when it's prime time for super sexy sweaty skin. As such, I've been forced to develop some pretty hardcore techniques for keeping my makeup on as long as possible. The best strategy I can stand behind is to keep it minimal, especially as far as foundation goes — and by that, I mean no foundation at all. It may sound scary, but a little bit of tinted moisturizer and a whole lot of a good concealer can carry you through the day (and oh, those summer nights) without the spotty disintegrating effect a thicker formula tends to cause when things get heated. Thankfully, I'm not alone in this fight — some of my favorite brands have stepped up to give me a hand in my battle against the heat. Here are ten of my product picks for makeup that stays fresh, even when you feel anything but.

JERUSALEM (Aug. 18)
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Foreign Minister David Levy have apparently managed to patch up their differences.
The two held a two-hour meeting Sunday in an effort to mend a rift in their relationship that was made public when Levy aides complained that Levy was being left out of foreign policy decisions.
The Prime Minister's Office described Sunday's meeting as good, adding that the two had agreed on ways to cooperate.
During their talks the two agreed to form a ministerial committee, headed by the premier and including the foreign and defense ministers, to formulate foreign and defense policy.
Levy and Netanyahu also agreed that the Foreign Ministry would maintain a special status in matters regarding the peace process.
In addition, they decided to appoint former Israel Defense Force chief of staff Dan Sharon to head the Israeli side of the steering committee for negotiations with the Palestinians.
The long-standing rivalry between Netanyahu and Levy resurfaced with a vengeance two weeks ago, following a series of what Levy considered slights to his position and that of his ministry.
These included political contacts carried out by the prime minister's diplomatic adviser, Dore Gold, without Levy's knowledge, and the failure of the Prime Minister's Office to brief the Foreign Ministry about contacts with foreign diplomats.
The final straw came when Netanyahu made his first official trip to Jordan this month as prime minister without being accompanied by Levy or any member of the Foreign Ministry staff.
To demonstrate his ire, Levy boycotted Cabinet meetings and sessions of a forum of senior ministers that dealt with security issues.
Levy returned to his office in Jerusalem on Sunday after making what was described as a personal trip to New York.
Prior to his meeting with Netanyahu, Levy did not attend a meeting held earlier in the day at which members of the ministerial forum discussed a Defense Ministry proposal for an IDF redeployment in the West Bank town of Hebron.
During those talks, the ministers disagreed on the details of the plan, which calls for Israeli troops to remain in more of the Arab districts of Hebron than originally agreed to in the Interim Agreement signed last September in Washington.
The plan also calls for greater numbers of Israeli troops to remain in Hebron than originally envisioned.
During the meeting, Transport Minister Yitzhak Levy, of the National Religious Party, demanded that the plan also call for strengthening the Jewish population in Hebron, which currently numbers about 450.

Saints Row
Review by Geist
"Youre dropped into a world of violence, pure unadulterated violence "
Saints Row is a new addition to the Sand Box genre and from what's out in that area its one hell of a contender. From the story line to the streets them selves Saints Row is a stellar title. The game begins out of the box letting you full customize your own character. And we're not talking about just picking a shirt and some pants. The character creation is one of the best I've seen in a while. One could spend hours just creating a character alone if they want to put in the effort. From there you're dropped into a world of violence, pure unadulterated violence. In Saints Row you play the role of a new gang member fresh off the street. You must help the Saints reclaim there territory and more. You must gather weapons and wag war on the streets. Just remember to throw some purple on before you do.
Graphics- 8
The Graphics in Saints Row are astounding. From the lighting to the rain everything is just dead on. The people and cars are very detailed and impressive. From the cracks on the highway roads to the reflection of the police lights on your character everything is bright and vibrant. There are some screen tear issues and maybe a bit of pop up while cruising max speed on the highway, but those are few and far between. All in all Saints Row is a next generation game and shows off some of the true power of the 360. Just the Molotov Cocktails and fire effects alone blew me away, especially when the car I used them on blew up and flipped over my head, I almost teared up there.
Game play- 9
Right from the start you are free to do what you want. I feel that's one of the best aspects of Saints Row. It is true to the fact that it is a free roaming game. You could spend hours doing many different things and not even have touched the main tale yet. From taking hostages (my personal favorite) to dealing drugs, or crushing rival gangs, there is plenty to do. The main story missions are great, but this is a GTA style game, so on the down side there's nothing to new mission wise. But hey you don't buy this game for originality; you buy it for violence and evil right? Well, I did...
Sound- 7
The sounds and music in Saints Row is a bit of give and take. One minute its pure brilliance and another you're wondering where it went. When it's dead on its great. Guns sound beautiful (I'm not crazy), people chat up about the weirdest stuff, cars rev and purr, and the music is dead on. One of the cooler aspects is when you're in a car with the radio on and exit the radio still plays but is muffled since you're now out side the car. Plus you get that whole base bump when others drive by you cranking the tunes. As for the dropped sound I've only noticed it once in a great while and only for a split second, so I feel it's no real issue. Did I mention the gun sound effects rock, cause they really do.
Control- 10
The controls are a give and take, they truly depends on the person. Mainly it's the aiming that people may not like. There's no auto target. Yup, you got to work for your food Billy In other words you actually have to aim at people, which I find completely awesome. Leads to some amazing gun fights (because you know I love the guns). As for everything else, it's pretty standard fair, simple to use, simple to learn. Hell you can shoot 360 degrees from you car, how rocking is that. All in all I say the controls are dead on.
Overall- 8
In my opinion Saints Row could have been called GTA4, it's great. Not as huge as San Andreas but what it misses in size it repacks in content. Saints Row is a must own for any 360 fan. From the graphics to the game play it just works out to be a grand time. I'd say fun for the whole family, but some people might not agree. As for me I'll be playing this game for quite some time. While it's not perfect, no game truly is so why worry. Its fun, it's crazy, it's violent, and it's wonderful.

Making therapeutic proteins last longer
Proteins are responsible for pretty much everything in the human body. When there is a problem with the proteins, it usually leads to disease. Protein therapy shows enormous potential for treating disease. But sometimes the proteins in a therapeutic treatment break down or are metabolized before they ever reach their target destination.
In a recent paper published in Angewandte Chemie, researchers from the laboratories of Martin Pomper, professor of radiology oncology and CCNE co-director, and Seulki Lee, assistant professor of radiology at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, developed a simple method to validate protein drugs in animal models. An illustration related to the paper appeared on the cover of the journal.
"We show that we can extend the half-life, that is, the amount of time the drug stays in the blood, while maintaining the activity of the model protein drug, TRAIL," said one of the lead authors Maggie Swierczewska, a post doctoral fellow in the Pomper lab. "This has great implications for drug screening and validation methods, especially for the growing protein drug market." According to the paper, by attaching a molecule of polyethylene glycol (PEG) to certain sites on the TRAIL protein drugs through an already well known method, the half-life of the drug could be extended without affecting its beneficial activity.
Authors on this paper include Tae Hyung Kim, Magdalena Swierczewska, Yumin Oh, AeRyon Kim, Dong Gyu Jo, Jae Hyung Park, Youngro Byun, Scheherazade Sadegh-Nasseri, Martin G. Pomper, Kang Choon Lee, Seulki Lee. Author affiliations include the departments of Radiology and Pathology at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, the Johns Hopkins Center of Cancer Nanotechnology Excellence, the Johns Hopkins Institute for NanoBioTechnology, Center for Nanomedicine and collaborators at Sungkyunkwan University and Seoul National University, both in Korea.

(2013), Mix to Validate: A Facile, Reversible PEGylation for Fast Screening of Potential Therapeutic Proteins In Vivo. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed..

AUSTRALIAN goalkeeper Brad Jones produced a string of saves after retaining his place in Liverpool's starting line-up, helping the Reds to a 1-1 draw with Newcastle.
Sunday's English Premier League clash was Jones' fifth successive match as Liverpool keeper with regular No. 1 Pepe Reina still recovering from a hamstring injury.
While Jones made two saves, a powerful strike into the far corner of the goal from Yohan Cabaye gave Newcastle the lead in the closing minutes of the first half.
Newcastle held that lead until star Liverpool striker Luis Suarez produced an equaliser in the 67th minute with a sublime goal.
Jonas Gutierrez gave possession away to Jose Enrique, who punted a ball into the Newcastle box. Suarez brought the ball under control, skipped past Fabricio Coloccini and coolly rounded Magpies goalkeeper Tim Krul in a sweeping solo move.
Coloccini's day got worse when he received a straight red card six minutes from time for a wild challenge on Suarez.
Jones may be back to the substitute bench for Sunday's clash with the competition's second-placed Chelsea, when Reina is expected to be back at full strength.
''We were outstanding,'' Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers said. ''Our possession and intensity was relentless. We went to sleep for the [Newcastle] goal but I thought we deserved the three points.
''Suarez's goal was brilliant and he has been fantastic. His first touch from that height, and touch was an incredible piece of skill and he is a world-class striker.
''Most people in football know he is a threat, he plays the false nine role like [Lionel] Messi does at Barcelona. He will be disappointed we did not win.''
The draw left Newcastle in 10th place while Liverpool climbed to 12th spot, three points behind the Magpies.
''We looked comfortable at 1-0 and lacked concentration for their goal,'' said Newcastle manager Alan Pardew. ''We looked to keep hitting them on the break, but they are clever and Suarez is a great player.''
Earlier on Sunday, Queens Park Rangers and Reading were still both left searching for their first league win of the season after sharing the points in a 1-1 draw at Loftus Road.
Former QPR defender Kaspars Gorkss opened the scoring for Reading in the 16th minute, but Djibril Cisse earned QPR a draw with an equaliser in the 66th minute. ''We don't belong at the bottom,'' Cisse told Sky Sports.

Three-alarm fire destroys south Minneapolis church
May 28, 2012 (MINNEAPOLIS) Minneapolis fire crews were dispatched to a smoke alarm call at the Walker Community United Methodist Church (3104 16th Av. S., Minneapolis) on the evening of May 27, 2012. Upon arrival crews smelled smoke and upgraded the call to request additional resources to the scene.
Crews located the fire in the attic area of the structure. In the course of fighting the fire, five Minneapolis firefighters were injured and taken to Hennepin County Medical Center. Of those three were released last night with first degree burns to their hands. Two firefighters remain at HCMC with first and second degree burns that will require additional treatment. There are no reports of civilian injuries.
The cause of this fire is under investigation. Due to the intensity of the fire, the buildings structural integrity was severely compromised and the building is being torn down this morning.
No additional information is available about the five firefighters; their names are not being released at this time to ensure that family members have been notified. There will be no additional updates until Tuesday, May 29, 2012.

Once again these are Steam keys so you'll need a Steam account in order to redeem them. The keys will be posted on my Twitter account this Sunday, 06/02, starting at 5pm PST/8pmEST and released at 15 minute intervals until I run out of keys. Those of you who weren't lucky, or quick, enough have another chance at this game.
The keys themselves will be posted in their entirety except that there will be a space between the last two digits/numbers of the keys. This is to try and prevent any bots from redeeming the codes. However, be on the lookout for additional information should I feel that this step isn't sufficient and have to change how I post the keys.
So if you want another chance to win a copy of either game just follow my Twitter account which is @SeanDKnight, be on at the right time, and make sure your copy and paste skills are up to snuff and your Steam application open and ready to redeem those keys!
Remember, these keys are for the Steam version only so you must have a Steam account in order to activate them.
...it would also help if you have a PC that could run it as well.
Good luck!

text: Hey guys, I made an extensive work flow using automator. One of the actions checks the size of a given folder every 3 seconds until the file size remains constant for more then 3 seconds. It then tells the work flow to continue. Basically, if I'm copying something into the folder, then action allows the work flow to wait until it is done copying before moving on. The problem is that it is not very reliable, as automator usually is. However, I was wondering if there was a way to write an applescript that would do the same thing. That way I could still incorporate it into my work flow. Any ideas?

To: "Henning, Mike" <firstname.lastname@example.com>
Subject: Re: untied.com
Dear Mr. Henning,
Thank you for your letter of October 2, in which you reiterate your concern for alleviating potential confusion of passengers. I am certain that the majority of passengers who submit complaints to Untied.com regarding their unfortunate travel experiences with your airline would be relieved to learn that someone at United truly cares about them. As one example with which you may be able to assist, many of United Airlines' customers have experienced a great deal of confusion due to the -- for lack of a better term -- "confusing" explanations provided by your airline staff when a United flight is significantly delayed or cancelled, ostensibly because of weather conditions at the destination airport, despite the weather report indicating that conditions are fine, and while flights from other airlines on the same leg continue without interruption. Would you be so kind as to offer a statement that I could provide to my readers with questions of this nature?
Similarly, I share your concern that "communications submitted by United Airlines' customers... are sometimes lost or not directed through the appropriate channels", as is evident by the numerous posts I receive along the lines of this one from September 28:
On August 28, 2012 UA flight 427 was cancelled after many delays.
Passengers were told they should contact unitedairlines.com/feedback and
would be given travel vouchers for their inconvenience. I have sent 3
messages to this address and have not had a response. Also tried to
call the feedback line which says the mailbox is full and you cannot leave
a message.
Clearly, United Airlines has some work to do in the communications department. As I've noted already, this is one of those areas in which I can offer valuable expertise, and with which I'd like to assist you.
In any event, despite your admirable desire to facilitate communication with United Airlines' customers, there seems to be a troublesome contradiction between your concerns that Untied.com somehow impedes "the communication flow between United Airlines and its customers" and your intent, as expressed in your letter, to interfere with this very same communication flow. For those very few passenger satisfaction issues that slip between the cracks of your otherwise superb customer relations team, it seems to me that the best-placed individual to resolve their issues would be the Manager of Customer Relations. However, if Helen Chellin (Manager of Customer Relations) "has no connection to the issues discussed on [my] site", then we should begin our meeting in Montreal by considering the assignment of job titles that more appropriately describe the actual responsibilities of your team members with respect to decision-making authority in customer relations . For obvious reasons, it is essential that Ms. Chellin join our meeting in Montreal.
Similarly, in order for United Airlines to benefit properly from the one hour of my consulting service that I have agreed to provide to you, at your request, on a "no fee basis", I trust you will agree that it is imperative for your Senior Vice-President, Labor Relations, to join the meeting as well, given that the topics to be discussed include United's relations with its employees, not only its customers. I am unable to meet with you on the dates you suggested, but please let me know whether Helen, Martin, and Douglas McKeen would be available to meet in Montreal the morning of December 18 or 19.
I am in full agreement regarding the seriousness of the "very disturbing message" that you thoughtfully transcribed in your letter of September 10. I thank you for confirming, in your letter of October 2, that this matter is currently under investigation by the government. As such, I again ask that you provide me with the name(s) of the officers at the federal agency or agencies with whom you have shared the transcript, so that I may verify, for the safety of your passengers and my readers, that this matter is being treated appropriately. I'm sure you can appreciate that sharing with me the name(s) of such individual(s) would in no way compromise the integrity of this investigation. Rather, it would allow me to offer my assistance to the investigation by providing the relevant agency or agencies with any additional information that might be useful to their task. As I'm certain that United Airlines would not wish to be seen as obstructing an ongoing federal investigation, I expect to receive this information from you at your earliest convenience.
I look forward to hearing from you.
- Jeremy

Which of these bars have you visited? Share with us in 100 Places to Drink Now—The Checklist.
We sipped our way through the South to compile a list of our 100 favorite Southern bars. From down-and-dirty dives to sleek and buzzy cocktail lounges, these spots are sure to liven up any Friday night.
In the South, there are plenty of places to pull up a barstool or sidle up to the counter for a cold one. Here is a list of the South's best bars. Places like Napoleon House, Branch, and Taste are all places you'll want to linger over that drink and really get to know the locals. If you choose a bar by its name, visit Captain Foxheart's Bad News Bar & Spirit Lodge in Houston, Texas. If you prefer a bar named after where you park your car, you'll love the Garage Bar in Louisville, Kentucky. Imbibe and bowl at Pinewood Social. What the South's best bars all have in common is great service, amazing drinks, and that sense of down-home welcome that makes you stay a little longer. You should.

He's always up for a good time, and last night (November 4) Jimmy Kimmel hosted a post-CMA Awards show featuring some of country music's biggest names.
During the course of the program, Kimmel pulled out his Celebrity Mean Tweets segment and invited Nashville's elite to join in the fun.

Stepping out for an evening of fun, Hunter Hayes showed up at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas for the 49th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards earlier tonight (April 6).
The "I Want Crazy" hitmaker couldn't wait to mingle with fellow famous folks outside the MGM Grand Garden Arena before checking out all the action inside.
Following up music's biggest night of the year, Warner Music Group hosted a star-studded bash at their Los Angeles headquarters on Sunday evening (January 26).
He's one of the hottest young stars in Country Music, and Hunter Hayes brought the crowd to their feet with a moving performance at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards tonight (January 26).

@DailyCUScan Now on Twitter
The League's newsletter Daily CU Scan is staking out space on Twitter (@DailyCUScan) in order to get the latest breaking news out to member credit unions on a real time basis. "A daily newsletter is a tremendous communication tool," said League President Paul Gentile, "but when it is coupled with the ability to get the word out in real time we can really take the idea of timely information to the next level."
According to the plan, as @DailyCUScan gathers momentum, it will be a focal point of a larger Twitter community of local credit unions who are sharing news and information. This kind of presence will raise the profile of credit unions among younger consumers and journalists who make great use of the medium.

With a slightly healthier spin, this dish is still very Greek. The sauce still has a hit of cinnamon and the béchamel still has a hint of nutmeg. In this recipe, the amounts are more slight so if you prefer a bolder taste then use a little extra spice!
Although this dish takes a little effort and a lot of cleaning pots and pans, it is totally worth it. Make it once or twice and you will get the hang of it in no time!
It is officially Holy Week here and this is the beginning of the biggest 2 weeks of the year. Stay tuned for more info on how Greeks celebrate Easter! This is one holiday that is definitely more special in Greece.

Monsters after "R" Edit
Is it just me, or are the monsters after the "R" section not appearing in the list? --Andrew Arnott (talk, email) 13:16, September 8, 2009 (UTC)
- I figured out why. In the DPL installation, you can set the max number of results that are returned, which defaults to 500. The rest of the results are just truncated. We either need to have a link to the next 500 somehow or have this value changed to a larger number. --Andrew Arnott (talk, email) 17:32, September 8, 2009 (UTC)
- We'll switch it over to Semantic MediaWiki, which doesn't have this problem. Surgo 17:35, September 8, 2009 (UTC)

Wiki Project Edit
I think it would be nice to have all of the creatures switched over to the Stat Block 2 format. That way we can easily set properties in the template and track information for all of the SRD creatures (like Str score, HD, etc). After we finish transferring all of the missing SRD/UA pages over, would anyone be interested in helping with this project? Is anyone opposed to this idea? --Andrew Arnott (talk, email) 18:42, December 17, 2009 (UTC)

Ask an Eye Doctor and Get an Answer ASAP
Hello, Thank you for the question.I am Dr.A.S.Desai and I look forward to assisting you .
Are you available for chat now?
Actually the muscle that lifts the eyelid or helps to keep the eye open and the muscle which helps the angle of the mouth to rise when we smile are supplied by the same nerve which is the seventh cranial nerve ( facial nerve). Thus a drooping of the eyelid and the angle of the mouth on the same side does appear to be due to a partial weakness of the seventh cranial nerve. When there is a weakness or paresis, there may not be all the signs of Bell's palsy . This could be reason why you may not be having all the signs of it.
Seventh nerve paresis could be due to diabetes, hypertension, ear infection,idiopathic ( when the exact cause is not known), autoimmune disorders and other less common conditions. Idiopathic facial paresis could be due to a viral infection of the facila nerve and is usually self ,limiting with complaete recovery within 6 weeks to 6 months.
I am sorry for a small mistake in my typing. Kindly let me clarify it. It is likely that the normal eye is drooping while the other eye is lagophthalmic due to facial paresis. " Actually the muscle that lifts the eyelid or helps to keep the eye open and the muscle which helps the angle of the mouth to rise when we smile are supplied by the same nerve which is the seventh cranial nerve ( facial nerve)." It should have been the muscle that helps to shut the eye and the muscle which helps to close the lips or purse the lips are supplied by the seventh nerve.There is a possibility that there is weakness of the right side of the face ( the right eyelid is unable to close completely which makes the left lid appear droopy).In facial paresis , on attempting to smile, on the affected side , the angle of the mouth does not move making the other side of the mouth appear to move ( this could give the appearance of a droop in the left side of the mouth).
I guess I would agree with the doctor who thought it could be Bell's palsy .It is likely to improve in a few weeks time naturally. It is better to use lubricating eye drops to keep the cornea moist and avoid dryness ( especially the right eye). However it may not be needed if the right eye shuts completely.
Please let me know if you have any more queries in this regard. I look forward to you reply.
If you need more help, please use the reply tab to continue our conversation. If you do not require further assistance, kindly rate my service.
Thank you and best wishes.
It was a pleasure to have answered this question. Views expressed are for information purpose only and cannot substitute a visit to an ophthalmologist
I can see that you have entered the chat. My screen shows that you are typing.... I sorry about the initial error :(
Have you been examined by an eye doctor? Drooping of the euelid is called ptosis and is again due to weakness of a different muscle ( levator muscle which lifts the eyelid up).
Two years is a long time for drooping of the eyelid.
Ptosis can occur due to nerve paralysis ( third cranial nerve), muscle weakness as in myasthenia gravis or aponeurotic which is age related , mechanical( due to any mass lesion of the upperlid).
Are you there?
It is likely to be aponeurotic ptosis since it is involving one eye only . It is unlikely to be due to myasthenia gravis which is bilateral whereas third nerve palsy would have caused other symptoms such as double vision and deviation of the eye. Aponeurotic ptosis can be corrected with eyelid surgery.
You are most welcome.
Is there anything else that I can answer for you?

The Quiz is the third episode of the first series of The Office.
It's Tim's 30th birthday, so he shows up to work early, in the goofy radio hat his mother bought for him. David is excited because the quiz is tonight, and he and his pal Chris Finch, sales rep extraordinaire, intend to dominate, as they have in years past. But David fears a threat when he learns that Ricky was once a contestant on "Blockbusters," a television quiz show. Lee and Dawn present Tim with a giant inflatable penis. Lee talks about his plans for the future with Dawn. He figures they'll move in with his mum, and after having a few kids, Dawn might get a part-time cleaning job. "Got to dream a dream," sighs Dawn, and when Tim chuckles at this, Lee takes offense. Dawn tries to organize drinks for Tim's birthday, but David is worried that it will interfere with the quiz. Gareth is the quizmaster, which guarantees no shortage of questions about warfare. When Ricky and Tim team up to beat David and Finch, it leads to drunken recriminations, another challenge, and one employee's humiliation.
- Ricky: You really are a couple of sad little men, aren't you?
Gareth: Oh yeah, they're sad little men. He's thrown a kettle over a pub, what have you done?
- Gareth: What ones are your that I use?
David: Same shit, different day, that's mine. Exsqueeze me, instead of excuse me.
Tim: Wankyou very much.
David: Yeah, I invented that.
- David Brent: To be honest I think you're mad to let me and Finchy on the bleedin telly. We're like Morecambe and Wise when we're together. No, not Morecambe and Wise, because there's no straight man, there's no dead wood. I'm more sort of character based, and he's more of a gag man. I do gags as well. But we're good together, by now. We sort of read each other's minds - we'll be doing a bit of shtick and we'll just start cracking up, and people watching will go 'Why's that funny?' and we tell them why and they go 'Oh yeah, yeah, you are the best.' It's their opinion.
- Chris Finch: Give me half hour with her I'd be up to me nuts in guts.
- David Brent: There are limits to my comedy. There are things that I'll never laugh at. The handicapped. Because there's nothing funny about them. Or any deformity. It's like when you see someone look at a little handicapped and go "Ooh, look at him, he's not able-bodied. I am, I'm prejudiced." Yeah, well, at least the little handicapped fella is able-minded. Unless he's not, it's difficult to tell with the wheelchair ones. Just give generously to them all.
- David Brent: No, everyone does not get one point. 'Carpet Munchers' don't get a point, 'Dr Wankenstein' doesn't get a point, 'Stephen Hawking's Football Boots' don't get a point.

Mental Health
Have Mental Health Questions? Ask a Psychiatrist Online
He has been offered support by several mental health services but goes only a few times and quits. His wife is going to alanon but I don't think knows the extent of his mental illness. She has submitted to his sadism for a while and now refuses. She is loyal but is strong and will protect herself and child, but has little support from family.
My son, I don't know about friends or other support. I feel he was being honest with me tonight, but is dishonest with all of the other family that live in his town. He is very charming, hightly intelligent, and manipulative. He has tried many many medications and has had shock treatments for depression. He cannot stick with any meds.
Yes, he did elaborate about being a sociopath. He said he wanted to hurt others and that it would give him pleasure, that the only thing he was afraid of were the consequences of being put in jail. I know of two incidences where he hurt others and was not remorseful. When a teenager he shot a friend with a BB gun and he shot at a girl he did not know with the same gun. He also stabbed a boy in the foot for taking food from his tray while in a mental health facilitiy. He was under lock down in that facility after that......but he managed to escape and elude police.
Since he is an adult now, I know nothing that he has not told me himself, but I would not be suprised to find that he had hurt someone.
His wife is very loyal and will not say a bad word about him, but I am afraid for her. I want to call and tell her what he told me last night but am somewhat concerned that she would feel I am interferring or would not belive me.
I remember now that he also admitted killing a squirrl by chopping of his head when he was very young 10 or 12. I thought he would be horrified but he was not.
As I write this I am seeing a picture emerge that I had not, or preferred not to see.
I hope this is all confidential information I am giving you, it makes me afraid just to write this letter and admit to myself that something is very very wrong
Thank you for your kind words

List of 2017 units of study
PHIL2646 - Philosophy and Literature
Semester 1, 2012 | Credit Points: 6
Coordinator: Moira Gatens
This unit will examine the relationship between philosophy and literature. Is it necessary or incidental, a long and fecund marriage, or a patchy history of questionable affairs? Beyond the problem of identifying the two parties (what makes a text 'philosophical' or 'literary'?), the quality of their intercourse will be investigated: 1. by examining arguments for the philosophical significance of literature; 2. by exploring philosophical issues (eg. 'personal identity', 'time, memory and consciousness', 'freedom and determinism') through selected literary works.
1x2000wd essay (40%), 1x500wd tutorial paper (10%) and 1x2hr exam (50%)
1x2-hr lecture/week, 1x1-hr tutorial/week
12 junior credit points in Philosophy

Vodka, Swimsuits and Tattoos
"Years go by I'm lookin' through a girly magazine. And there's my homeroom angel on the pages in-between."
The Doctor was humming a tune and it was driving Rose mad.
They had just gotten back to the Tardis after a quick stop off in her time to visit her mum and see some of her friends. He'd been grinning at her ever since she came out of the bathroom at the pub and wouldn't tell her why. Then when they'd been walking home he started humming and despite it's extreme familiarity, she couldn't figure out the song. Finally she had to ask.
"Alright, I give up. What song is that?"
He smiled at her from behind the console but didn't answer. Just kept right on humming. She could hear it in her head, the words just out of her minds grasp. Little bits and pieces were coming together, but nothing substantial to give her the answer. Memory sold... Never-never land... And that incessant chorus of Na na nana nana that he just kept humming.
Suddenly she clicked her fingers and smiled. "Got it! Angel is a Centerfold, right?"
He nodded, then looked as if he was trying to hold back a smile. Then he snickered.
"Nothing." He turned away from her, feigning interest in one of the controls. It was obvious he was hiding something.
"No really, what?"
"It's nothing. Just... something Shireen showed me."
His coyness was rapidly becoming more annoying that the humming had been. "What was it?"
"Just a photo."
She waited for him to clarify. Thankfully she didn't have to wait long as he quickly caved.
"Of you... in a hot tub."
She looked at him in confusion for a moment, then froze, her face turning red when she recalled a certain night of a mix of vodka, swim suits and Shireen's new digital camera. "She didn't."
He raised his eyebrows teasingly.
"What?" He smiled at her. The perfect image of innocence.
"Which one did she show you?" Rose asked with a little trepidation. If she was lucky, Shireen had shown him one of her more decent poses.
"I told you. You were in a hot tub."
"Well, what was I wearing in it?"
His skin flushed but he didn't answer. She had a feeling that her fears over what he'd seen were about to be confirmed.
He swallowed hard. "Right. What were you wearing? ...nothing. Well, I say nothing, but you may have had socks on for all I know."
Rose nearly passed out from the blood rushing to her face and cheeks. How could her friend have done this to her? "Now look. We were just playing around, and she swore she wasn't gonna get them developed. Oh God, I can't believe she showed you." She buried her face in her hands in a futile attempt to hide. The Doctor grinned at her.
"What? There's nothing to be embarrassed about. It's not like you have some hideous scar or something. Although I never knew you had a tattoo."
"It was the one where you could see the tattoo?!" She was practically shrieking now. She turned away from him, muttering to herself. "What am I gonna do? I'll kill her. Yes, kill Shireen first..."
"Aw now, don't do that."
She turned to glare at him. "Why not?"
He looked away, not giving an answer.
"Doctor?" She had a warning tone in her voice that he thought it was best to heed.
"She... may have mentioned... having more to show me."
He took off running before Rose had a chance to react. She fought against her bodies desire to fall to the floor in embarrassment and took off after him.
"Doctor, you better be joking!" She could hear his footsteps echoing down the halls along with his voice.
"Why would I joke about that? Besides, I thought you'd be happy. She told me you wanted to be a model."
"What?" She rounded a corner and caught site of his ankle disappearing at the end of the corridor.
"Weren't you supposed to send them in to a magazine?"
"Shut up!"
"Honestly Rose. Here I thought you were a sweet little girl. Never knew you were the type."
"I'm not! Now shut up about it!"
"So where were you going to send them? Glamour?"
"I thought I told you to shut it."
"Doctor, that's not even funny!"
As she turned around the next corner she found him standing still, hands in his pockets and a casual smile on his face. She came to a stop just a few feet in front of him. "What are you grinning about?"
He shrugged, his smiled widening. "Nothing. Just a thought."
"Oh yeah? What's that." She crossed her arms and raised an eye brow, tell tale warning signs that his answer better be good.
"Well," he began, glancing off to the side. "It's just a good thing you didn't send those pictures in."
She raised both eye brows, waiting for his explanation.
"I mean, if you had, you'd be some famous model in Milan right now and I'd never have met you."
Immediately, all signs of anger drains from Rose's face and she smiled. "That… that's sort of sweet."
"Sweet? Yep, that's me. Sweet as candy. Sweet as honey. Sweet as, well, you get the point… I do mean was I said though. You really don't have to be embarrassed."
Rose scratched at her ear and looked away. "Yeah I do."
"Because it was you."
"Oh." The grin on his face fell just slightly and she immediately felt guilty.
"Not that I'm upset you saw or anything, just..."
"Just what?"
"Rose really." He stepped forward to look her in the eyes. She lowered her gaze to stare at the floor.
"It's just... I don't know how to say it." She looked up at him and smiled nervously. "I guess, I would have rather shown you my tattoo myself."
"Oh." It was a much happier 'oh' this time, and he smiled at the implication of her words. "Well, if that's all it is."
She smiled back at him, relieved that he had taken her somewhat-confession in stride. Then she got an idea. "I've gotten another one since then."
The Doctor raised his eyebrows in interest. "Oh really? Where?"
Rose's tongue appeared at the corner of her mouth as her smile broadened. "I guess you'll have to find out on your own without Shireen to help you."
"Can I take pictures?" He chanced a quick grin and took off running.
Rose gasped in mock horror and chased after him, laughing as he teased her all the way to her room.

[1]The $20.1 billion acquisition of Mexico's Grupo Modelo (PINK:GPMCY[2]) by Anheuser-Busch InBev (NYSE:BUD[3]) has hit a major roadblock[4].
On Thursday, the U.S. Department of Justice sued the companies in federal court, seeking to block the merger. The government contends that the deal would give the combined company almost half of the $80 billion-a-year beer market in the U.S., reducing competition, the Associated Press noted.
Despite the news, shares of Anheuser-Busch rose more than 2% in Friday morning trading.
The Justice Department argues that Anheuser-Busch, which produces Bud Light, the best-selling beer in the U.S., could raise prices in 26 metropolitan markets if the merger is completed. Corona Extra, made by Grupo Modelo, is the nation's best-selling imported beer.
Negotiations between the companies and the government prior to the lawsuit had failed to reach an agreement to assuage the government's concerns. Anheuser-Busch InBev announced plans to purchase Grupo Modelo last year[5].
Anheuser-Busch indicated that it would fight the lawsuit and planned to continue to pursue the merger.

Are Joe Jonas & Taylor Swift Getting Back Together?
The couple famously broke up during a 27 second phone call — with both singers later talking smack in song about the other. Now it appears their relationship is on the mend, as Joe was recently in the audience at Taylor's concert in San Jose, CA.
"He wants her back," a Jonas source tells Us. "He wants to show her he's a changed man and would love to see what's possible between them."
As for Taylor, it appears she's considering the offer. "They're putting their past behind them," a Swift source says. "And maybe rekindling an old flame."
Taylor also recently reconnected with another ex, Taylor Lautner. In fact, both he and Joe were in attendance at Swift's concert, and Swift even went so far as to give Lautner a shout-out during Back to December, stating "This is for the boy from Michigan," (which is Lautner's home state).

Probably, the real question you need to ask is ... "are they legal for use in your country? That is, do they have the necessary certification for use in your country, ie. BSA, CE, UL, etc?
Otherwise, they look good enough!
Edits: 03/11/17 03/11/17 03/11/17Follow Ups:
The question has to do with sound quality, not whether or not an AC connector is safety-approved by a governmental agency, which is not always the case when it comes to many audiophile AC delivery products. Furthermore, to say "they look good enough" is entirely against the notion of a true audiophile-quality connector, of which a "look-alike" product can be of great deception when it comes to how it actually sounds from an audiophile POV.
From what I can gather, the OP is not after sound quality, just something functional, cheap, and looks good.
> From what I can gather, the OP is not after sound quality, just something functional, cheap, and looks good.
Absolutely not. I want a good quality plug that won't reduce the quality of the sound I get from my expensive system - otherwise I wouldn't be changing from the supplied power cables.
What I'm asking is "Can anyone positively identify this plug and comment on its quality?". I don't want people saying "if it's a sensible price, it's a fake" Some here have said this without a shred of evidence.
We all know that there are VAST mark-ups at each stage of the retail audio trade and that the fancy IEC plug bought in an audio store will have typically a �50 price tag. We also all know (unless we are totally ignorant of how the audio trade works) that these plugs are essentially not expensive to make (but much more than the few cents ones on standard moulded cables) and the asking price is dictated by those who enjoy the big profits - the importers, distributors and dealers each wanting 100+% mark-up. So if someone close to the manufacturing base buys in big quantities for a big discount and he sells them direct to the consumer from overseas (thus avoiding 25% import duty and sales tax / VAT) with a modest mark-up, he can still make a worthwhile profit.
I suspect that these plugs (advertised on Ebay.uk and Sonar Quest in US) are as genuine as the more costly ones offered by the "audio trade".
If someone can definitively offer FACTS about these plugs, I'd be happy to listen. If people simply say "sensible price equals fake or crap" I'm inclined to suggest they keep their uninformed opinion to themselves. The description of these plugs on the Sonar Quest site clearly states the manufacturer is Oyaide. If they are mis-selling these and they are not made by Oyaide, then they will be prosecuted. Has their claim of manufacture been challenged? Have they been shut down, fined or imprisoned for illegal trading or fraud? I suspect not.
So constructive comments only please. Thanks
So all I can say is you're just a stubborn dude.
On the other hand maybe you really do not get it.
This particular ward of A.A. is for folks who DO think cable and wires and cords and shiny bits matter.
It is NOT for folks who want to argue about cheap stuff is good since it HAS to be just as good since it looks the same.
Or defending the low prices since all that markup must be the reason why the good stuff costs so much. (Since in your mind it has to be the same as the cheap stuff.) LOL
By all means have a rant and avoid answering the question. I shouldn't have come to this particular forum as there are many here who sadly have totally closed minds. I last started a thread here some years ago and received equally unhelpful responses.
I'll try to remember to visit another AA forum where people are open-minded, helpful and will fairly consider a questions asked by others. We want to KNOW the answers to questions not to be fobbed off with the sort of crap you've been spewing out. However thanks to those who've been more constructive.
You have no idea how many lurkers visit Cable Asylum who stay silent rather than post a defensive response every time a question about the audiophile quality of a particular cable, power cord, AC outlet, AC connector, and other audio connectors of so many kinds pass through this forum, and how many posts are either ignored or responded to in a less than favorable way. It's the responsibility of the OP to provide the best attitude to follow within a thread, rather than simply attract an argument in a public forum as your reward.
> It's the responsibility of the OP to provide the best attitude to follow within a thread, rather than simply attract an argument in a public forum as your reward.
Yes, I appreciate that point entirely. Was my original post anything other than a genuine and politely worded enquiry about a product that appears good value? Did my question deserve the bile that some here have spewed out without actually addressing the question objectively?
If people can't answer the question as some obviously can't, they should keep their cretinous and insulting views to themselves
Just to remind those who've chosen to behave so objectionably, the original post read:
"Has anyone experience with these IEC plugs? They are offered in gold and rhodium plated copper at sensible prices. They are sent from Hong Kong and doubtless made in China, however provided the materials are as described, what's not to like at these prices? Thanks"
Please enjoy AA and I have found your posts to be ok, so, all good
I have never used them, so you should try them and let us know if they are any good. Perhaps they will surprise you and us!
I am NOT sure if they are legal, though.
Edits: 03/14/17
You need to go buy yourself a mirror.
Your initial question -- "Has anyone experience with these IEC plugs" -- was answered by me, for one. I replied quite simply that I thought they were a good value for the money, but a far cry from a genuine Oyaide or Furutech. Guess you didn't like that answer. Your response, wanting to know what "magical" properties the Furutech had followed by a dismissal of the "gullable"(sic) audiophiles that would spend money on them is exactly the "cretinous and insulting" view you accuse others of. I figured you were a troll then, and the more you post, the more you prove it.
Thank you both for your constructive comments.
bcowen provided a link to Sonic Quest, a company that offers the identical plug to the US market at a similar price to Gear City who offer it in UK - and probably Europe too.
Do we know anything of Sonic Quest? I'd like to know if they are US-based because if so, they are presumably operating under US trading, copyright and fraud laws. In view of the fact that SQ state that this plug is manufactured by Oyaide. I presume that's probably true - if they are US based. If they operate from outside the US, then I agree one has to be wary.
Has anyone here actually bought these plugs (my original question) and if so, do they agree with me that they are well made and seemingly as specified?
People such as Duster and 3+4=5 have jumped to unsubstantiated assumptions and have followed up by unwarranted rudeness to me for challenging their ignorance of this particular product. If they've never bought or used the plug, then they should have kept their prejudicial feelings to themselves and read comments by any respondents who HAVE bought and used them, rather than accusing me for being naive. I was in the trade side of this industry for several years and I know what sort of mischief the trade gets up to - particularly when it comes to profit margins on accessories such as cables and plugs.
Once they started with their ranting nonsense, I admit that I've wound them up a bit more by questioning their claimed "knowledge" (call me a troll if you wish) but they frankly deserve it. My replies to intelligent responses have, I think been polite and appreciative. I'd still like to get the question of SQ's county of operation answered and to speak with someone who has also bought and use these "sensibly priced" plugs.
As usual, your impression is spot-on. The OP still does not get it. You don't know how many times I've seen this kind of thread dissolve into a battle of wills against the forum during my 14k plus posts and far more reading of other folk's posts, as if every response is some type of reflection upon the nature of Cable Asylum over the decades. Staying on-topic is the best approach, with staying silent and reading more often being the most informative option if there's nothing better to say or ask in this forum. just my 2 cents
In which case, he got exactly what he was after.

Bounce houses are among the most popular back yard party amusements for a reason—kids love them and the adults love them too. When you think about it, is there anything better for a party-load of kids who have just eaten more sugar than you might eat in a month, than a towering outdoor playroom with a thick, inflatable, bouncy, floor, padded walls, and their favorite TV character emblazoned across the front and top of it?
Can you hear the shouts of joy and all the laughter coming from the back yard? Did you know that an inflatable bounce house is nearly indestructible and that they are a fun rain or shine? That makes them ideal for almost any kind of out party or event in South Florida.

110th Congress
- The Global Change Research Improvement Act, S. 2307: The purpose of the bill is to update the Global Change Research Act of 1990. Introduced by Kerry, cosponsors: Klobuchar, Nelson, Snowe. Approved by the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation. No direct House counterpart bill, but the Global Change Research and Data Management Act of 2007, HR. 906, introduced by Congressman Mark Udall, has some similarities.
- The Climate Change Adaptation Act, S. 2355: This bill directs the US Global Change Research Program to develop a National Strategic Plan for Climate Change Adaptation, and NOAA to develop a "National Climate Service" and prepare ocean and coastal impacts assessments and adaptation plans. Introduced by Senator Cantwell, cosponsors: Klobuchar, Kerry, Lautenberg. Approved by the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation. There is no House companion bill. UCAR has provided comments, which have influenced the language of the bill considerably, and has been generally supportive of this bill. But we do have some reservations regarding potential overreach by NOAA and the need for clear roles for and coordination with other federal agencies.
- The Federal Ocean Acidification Research and Monitoring Act, S. 1581: Introduced by Senator Lautenberg and 7 cosponsors. Approved by the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation, this bill has a house counterpart, the FOARAM Act, HR. 4174, introduced by Allen with 14 cosponsors. Passed the House 7/9/08 (House Report 110-749) and has been placed on the Senate Calendar.
