Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 7/3/2014 (1239 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
A former Wolseley resident has been named the Manitoba Soccer Association's 2013 outstanding senior male player.
Tyson Farago is a 22-year-old goalkeeper who played last season with WSA Winnipeg in the Premier Development League (the third tier of North American soccer).
In November he was offered a professional contract with FC Edmonton of the North American Soccer League last November, the league that is just one step below Major League Soccer. Farago signed a one-year deal with Edmonton, with the club retaining an option for a one-year extension.
"If I do well, they can exercise the option so I can stay for another year. After that they would have to offer me another contract," Farago explained.
Farago said his team has two-and-a-half weeks left in its pre-season. The club's first game is April 12 against the Tampa Bay Rowdies at the Al Lang Stadium in St. Petersburg, Fla.. The NASL season runs until November.
"We have nine games in the first half of the season, and then there's a month off, and we play the rest of the games," Farago said.
Farago has been playing soccer for 17 years, since he was five years old. He's played with age-group national teams and he's also trained in Brazil and in the U.K.
"I love the beautiful game. It's inexpensive to play, and so many people around the world play it," Farago said.
Farago said there's more to being a keeper than keeping the other team from scoring.
"We do a lot of footwork, a lot of handling, a lot of diving," Farago said. "I'm used to being in the net, and I don't think I can keep up with the guys on the field," he added with a laugh.
Farago said he enjoys being the commander in the back as it comes with the responsibility of organizing a team's back four defenders and commanding the field.
"I like to command my team, make sure everyone is in position. I also like making the big save. It's a great feeling," Farago said.
The former Winnipegger does get homesick from time to time, and that's why he's thankful for the one-month break during the NASL season.
"I can come back to Winnipeg and hang out with family and friends," Farago said. "I've been away from home before, so it's not the most difficult thing for me anymore."
The Manitoba Soccer Association's awards banquet is March 15 at Canad Inns Polo Park (1405 St. Matthews Ave.). The reception starts at 6 p.m., with dinner at 7 p.m. Tickets are $75 each and can be purchased at the MSA office at 211 Chancellor Matheson Rd.
Tony Fonseca of the Canadian Soccer Association will be the keynote speaker.

text: Yeah it's a poor man's rip off of Testify's thread in the legends section but still let's go. I'll do a match a week, showing why I feel you should watch it and a star rating it probably won't be awfully long as it's all about the wrestling. It'll generally be shit that I watched recently and liked [size=x-large]Match 1 [/size] Volador jr Vs Rey Escorpion 29 - 01 - 13 [yt]http/www.youtube.com/watch?v=7VWwILRzVIg[/yt] A simple way to judge a competitor's selling is to watch him when he thinks everyone else has forgotten about it. Volador is a testiment for this as he doesn't stop, the match starts up with Volador taking a big bump on the outside onto his head and the ending sequence really showed the grogginess from this more than most would, anyone who says Lucha is all flippy shit with no storytelling is living for an awful stereotype. It does happen but not all lucha is like this. The first fall counter from Hurricanrana isn't overly original but the execution was solid and well built, the match really took on a new lease of life into the 2nd and final falls. Rey took the first but Volador took the second after feigning many different hurricanrana attempts he rolls him up for the second fall, also I think this is where we see a crossbody from the stage. The final fall is an example of making a match mean something, the risks are riskier, the kicks stiffer and the hurricanarana to the outside shows this well however it's the grogginess of Volador which ups this match up, along with the bump from the outside and previous injuries he's caught by a spinning package piledriver to concede the final fall. Rey wins 2 falls to 1. My star rank : **** stars maybe edging to **** 1/4 on a good day.

This might be a dumb question, but is anybody running a production environmenton VMs? What are the pros and cons?I have to provide justifications for the IT department why I need a dedicatedserver.
I don't have any specific Pros and cons, but one of the cons usually mentionedis lack of support. However, that has recently changed. Microsoft recentlyexpanded the list of virtualization that they support SharePoint on.
Yes we currently running one FE web server as a VM, and when you call Microsoft,they tell you "Best effort."We are moving our production FE servers to physical, our DB is on a cluster butour test FE's run as VMs.
Yes, we are running our production environment on VM'sSo far we have had no noticeable issues. We are running 6 VM's on our ESXcluster with a 6tb SAN. Currently we are using WSS v3, but plan on migrating toMOSS within the next month. mainly we are using the environment for imaging, butthat is changing.2 WFE's1 Pinnacle Server1 Capture Server1 SQL Server1 VM for testingwith the exception of the test and SQL server, each of our VM's is running apiece of the Knowledge Lake suite. i can post the server spec's if you needthem.
On the support side, it depends on the virtualization solution you areusing. Virtual Server R2 SP1 and Hyper-V are fully supported forWSS3/MOSS2007. Large portions of Microsoft's online servers are alsorunning on Hyper-V (MSDN for example).

The last time we talked about Gresso was last year when the company showed off a seriously high-end iPad that had a wooden case made of 200-year old wood and an 18K gold Apple logo. Not everything that Gresso makes is packed with bling and wood though. The company has unveiled its new super rugged mobile phone called the Extreme X3.

Smartphone Stabilizer: An Introduction
The iPhone gimbal smartphone stabilizer has changed the game.
Once upon a time you had to spend big bucks on expensive equipment to capture cinema-quality video. Not anymore.
Nowadays, with the advent of smartphones like the iPhone and accessories like the iPhone gimbal, you can record in 4k resolution straight out of the box! Processors are lightening fast, lens glasses are crystal clear and megapixel sensors are enormous. Smartphone video is damn near impeccable.
But here's the catch: just because you can shoot high-quality video on your smartphone doesn't mean it'll be watchable. It will just be high definition. That's because if there's one factor that separates amateurs who shoot video on smartphone and professionals who shoot video on smartphone, it's stabilization.
Nothing is more distracting to your viewers than shaky smartphone video. And sure, smartphone video stabilization software can help. But when it comes to professional-looking smartphone video, prevention trumps correction any day of the week. A selfie-stick (i.e., monopod) can help. But not with much.
If you're standing still during shooting it's great. But once you start to move you'll be right back to the shaky shots. The solution? A smartphone stabilizer. The fact is, it's not about your camera anymore. It's about you, the camera operator, your environment and your equipment. Namely, the type of iPhone gimbal you choose.
What Is An iPhone Gimbal?
A smartphone stabilizer or smartphone gimbal is designed to make your smartphone video appear more fluid, smooth and professional by eliminating shaky camera movement. It's the perfect companion for action shots of all types, including but not limited to: biking, running, skiing, motorcycling and more.
How does a smartphone stabilizer accomplish this? Smartphone stabilizers utilize 3-axis brushless motors and sophisticated software to counterbalance movement and give smartphone video that clean "floating" or "flying" appearance versus the bouncy, shaky footage you're probably used to. The iPhone gimbal will remedy all of that.
Most of the smartphone stabilizers are the market are super easy to use with zero learning curve involved. Simply snap your smartphone into the camera phone stabilizer and you're all set. From there you turn on the smartphone stabilizer or iPhone gimbal and the motors will do the rest of the work. It's that simple.
How Does An iPhone Gimbal Work?
A good quality phone stabilizer or iPhone gimbal will utilize "a 3-axis motor".
- Tilt axis motor: when you nod your head up and down, you're tilting. A tilt/pitch axis on a phone stabilizer is what will keep it steady during sudden or fast tilting maneuvers.
- Pan axis motor: when you look left or right, you're panning. A pan axis on a phone stabilizer is what will keep it steady during sudden or fast panning maneuvers.
- Roll axis motor: imagine when you're running down the street. Your smartphone is likely bouncing both up and down, and left and right. This smartphone stabilizer will protect against those movements in tandem.
All of these motors are run by a computerized control box, typically located in the handle wand or behind the smartphone clamp that holds the phone in place.
This control board is what manages the constant weight distribution and counterbalancing to ensure that buttery-smooth footage we all know and love!
In short: if you're looking to shoot professional looking video on an iPhone or other smartphone, you need an iPhone gimbal or some kind of smartphone stabilizer. Period!
To demonstrate just how awesome, check out the footage below of me walking up a friend's porch with and without the iPhone gimbal. As you can see, a smartphone stabilizer makes a huge difference even for simple shots like this. It will make your footage much more cinematic.

Smartphone Stabilizer FAQ
Although they're designed to be ready to use right out of the box sometimes you have to trouble shoot your phone camera stabilizer. Technology isn't perfect and neither are we. Here are the most common issues people have with their phone stabilizers.
Why won't my smartphone stabilizer stabilize?
The most common problem is that the phone stabilizer isn't.. well, stabilizing! Thankfully, this is a simple fix and likely due to a low battery. Make sure to charge your batteries thoroughly after using it and right out of the box. Also, be sure the screws and bolts are tightened and your smartphone is securely fastened into the phone clamp.
Why won't my phone fit in the smartphone stabilizer clamp?
Sometimes, for whatever reason, a smartphone won't fit into the smartphone stabilizer clamp. It happens. You can fix this problem by trying it with or without a phone case. Most phone stabilizers come with different size clamps to accommodate the wide variety of devices available. If you still aren't having any luck, contact the seller ASAP for a solution.
How long will my smartphone stabilizer battery last?
Battery life varies by manufacturer. The iKan smartphone gimbal lasts 2-3 hours. The KumbaCam smartphone gimbal lasts 3-7 hours. The LanParte smartphone gimbal lasts 3-4 hours. Consult your owner's manual for specifics on battery life for iPhone gimbal or smartphone gimbal.
What's The Best Smartphone Gimbal?
There are a large plethora of options when it comes to the best iPhone gimbal or smartphone stabilizer. Thankfully, we're here to help you save valuable time and money by sharing comprehensive iPhone gimbal and smartphone stabilizer reviews.
These are the top 2 iPhone gimbals/smartphone stabilizers:
Why is KumbaCam the best smartphone gimbal?
- KumbaCam has superior construction. KumbaCam makes their iPhone gimbal and other stabilizers with aircraft-grade aluminum. Compared to it's plastic counterparts, the KumbaCam just blows them away. It feels lightweight but not cheap. Heavy but not cumbersome.
- KumbaCam has less parts to keep track of. Although the LanParte is easier to customize with smaller size clamps and other components (and it also comes with a sturdy, great looking case for easier storage and portability) there's just way too much to keep track of. No assembly required.
- KumbaCam is easier to recharge. Although the LanParte gimbal comes with a battery charger, the batteries have to be recharged externally. With the KumbaCam smartphone stabilizer, all you have to do is plug it into any portable power pack or USB charging port. That's it.
But don't get me wrong, the LanParte has a lot of good things going on too.
- LanParte is cheaper. At only $259.99 compared to the KumbaCam's $349.99, you're saving big.
- LanParte has a GoPro clamp. Any iPhone gimbal or smartphone gimbal is really going to shine during action shots. By including the GoPro accessory adapter you can attach the LanParte damn-near anywhere -whether on a helmet, to your chest or to a set of handlebars- and get smooth footage.
- LanParte is detachable. This is another big positive. It's not completely detachable or wireless but it allows you much greater flexible for shots. All you have to do is mount the smartphone gimbal to whichever GoPro accessory and tug the wand in someplace secure, and you're good to go.
Ready to buy an smartphone gimbal?
So you've made up your mind and decided you absolutely need one of these.
Awesome! If budget isn't an issue and you plan on doing lots of hand-held footage, I'd absolutely recommend the KumbaCam smartphone gimbal. If you're looking to mount your smartphone to a GoPro accessory and detach the base from the wand I'd say go with the LanParte.
Both are are a ton of fun to use and will work wonders on your footage. Both also have applications you can download to use in sync with your smartphone or iPhone. They also come with comprehensive instruction guides should you get stuck (I give KumbaCam the edge in the instruction manual department).

Armored Trooper VOTOMS
In the early 1980s, the real robot mecha genre was at the peak of its popularity thanks to series such as Mobile Suit Gundam and Super Dimension Fortress Macross. In 1983, veteran mecha director Ryosuke Takahashi (Dougram, SPT Layzner, Gasaraki) took the real robot concept to a new level with Armored Trooper VOTOMS. In a departure from even its other real robot cousins, the ATs of VOTOMS were walking tanks that are not special prototypes, don't fly and don't transform. In the distant Astragius Galaxy, a brutal intergalactic war has been waged for over a century between the Gilgamesh Confederation and the Balarant Union. The VOTOMS TV series begins at the end of the war and focuses on Chirico Cuvie, a Melkian AT pilot with a deadly past who becomes entangled in a massive interstellar conspiracy. Following the conclusion of the TV series, several short OVA installments were released. Most of these focus on the past or continuing adventures of Chirico, but the 12 episode OVA series Armor Hunter Merowlink is a standalone story featuring a new hero. In 2007, the franchise returned from inactivity with the 12 episode OVA series Pailsen Files. Sunrise is currently releasing the OVAs VOTOMS Finder and Alone Again in Japan. The TV series was released on DVD in the U.S. by the now-defunct Central Park Media. No other anime company has picked up the license from CPM, leaving the TV series to fall out of print.

I have been testing the spiceworks inventory program. As of yet I have been unable to discover the PC's on my network . They show up as unknown devices. I have tried setting group policy according to your instructions but have still been unable to inventory the network. ANy ideas on how I can get this to work ?
This topic was created during version 2.1.

More info please. I assume you are on a domain. You mentioned setting up a group policy and assume it's for the Firewall. Please tell us what other configuration you've done to get Spiceworks to detect your network devices.
Is your own 'host' machine getting picked up during a scan?
Are any workstations/devices getting detected at all?
May 15, 2008 at 3:29 UTC
Yes My device can be detected nad some of my network devices. But most of my PC's are showing up as unknown devices.
I have only tried the group policy settings for the windows firewall.
May 15, 2008 at 3:48 UTC
On the Inventory page > Environment Summary header > click on the Scan Errors button
1. What is the general error in the table under 'Error Condition'?
2. Open a command prompt and run this command FROM your host machine TO one of your "unknown" machines:
c:\ wmic /user:username /password:your password /node:remotemachine systemenclosure get serialnumber
Please forward me the output. Let me know if this doesn't make sense

Q) Should I apply for the Full-time MBA program at Harvard Business School? I am a 45-year old UK-based doctor will 13+ years of experience. With an MBA, I would like to switch careers from medical practice to hospital administration with an eye on taking a C-Level position in the next couple of years. I am not interested in part-time or Online MBA programs.
Age is a big factor when it comes to Business Schools. The oldest candidates in Harvard, Stanford, Wharton and other top schools for Full-time MBA programs are in the 37-38 year age group. They are in the minority. Maybe 1 or 2. Getting a Harvard brand associated with your profile can create wonders, but applicants rarely make it to top MBA programs when they look at the admission process with "How to get into HBS." It should be what you can offer and what you can learn from your peers. You can offer a lot given your 13+ years of experience, but your peers in a full-time class won't be able to offer you much in terms of perspective.
Case study method depends on that daily interaction and peer-to-peer learning. Another bigger factor is that the Harvard MBA brand depends on how they can keep the Employers happy. The largest chunk of employment is in Consulting. The big 3Cs don't like older candidates. I am talking about 35+ year olds. One reason is that when you are older, the motivation to put in 90+ hour work week...

Q) I am from India. I have average academic score in schooling and in graduation. (59.2%). I am worried about my low academic performance. I would like to know whether this will create difficulties in taking admission in top Canadian, US universities. How I can compensate this. I have 8 years of experience in project Management, now working as a senior project coordinator. What needs to be done to get admission?
If you received low marks in important quantitative subjects, you can take classes now and perform well to prove your abilities. Calculus is the most important class. After that I would suggest Accounting and Statistics.
Applying on Round 1 or Round 2. Which round increases the chances of being accepted to a top MBA program?
Categories : Round 1 vs Round 2
We would say that a strong candidate has an equally good chance in either round. What is important is to submit a strong application that one feels puts one's best face forward, rather than try to rush things just to meet the Round 1 deadline. It is a myth that applying in Round 1 increases one's chances of acceptance at a top MBA program. If you are ready with the application in time for the Round 1 submission, there should be no reason to delay until Round 2. If you are not ready, do not hesitate to spend additional time polishing up the application till you feel it is as good as it can get.

Teresa Palmer's baby-boosted beauty
Teresa Palmer has had to get used to her baby son "throwing her make-up around" while she's trying to get ready.
The Australian actress and her husband Mark Webber welcomed their first child together, a son called Bodhi, in February last year.
While she's getting used to caring for a baby, the 29-year-old has realised how well being a mum suits her lifestyle.
"It complements my beauty routine, because before Bodhi was here, I was really natural, and now that he's here, even more reason to be natural," she smiled to Byrdie.com when asked about motherhood.
"It has actually aligned perfectly, because I'm really extremely casual. I don't spend too much time focusing on the physical beauty, because I have a little guy to tend to. And every now and then, when I go on a date night without him, I would say I just have a little less time to do make-up. He's usually either breastfeeding or throwing my make-up around, so I have to do it very quickly, in a couple of minutes."
While Teresa keeps her look casual away from the camera, she's often getting her hair and make-up done for roles in films such as Knight of Cups and Point Break. Thanks to her career, she's managed to learn some beauty tips to take home.
"A main one that I've been learning a lot about recently is don't be afraid to use oils on your hair. I can get very wild hair because it's this beachy texture, so I've been using coconut oil, which I learned on my last film, all over my body, including completely lathering it into my hair," she explained.
"And I'll just sleep like that, and in the morning my skin just absorbs the moisture of the oil, and so does my hair. It's pretty transformational, so that's a big tip I've been learning a lot about."

From Our Editors
Hang Glide Miami's USHPA-certified hang-gliding instructors and seasoned boat crew help novice gliders take to the skies over Biscayne Bay. Boats tow gliders and their instructors out above the glassy waters of the bay, and once they've reached the correct altitude, pilots un-tether themselves from the line and freely glide for several thousand feet before landing in the water. Safely strapped to their veteran instructor, clients take in breathtaking views of marine life and the Miami skyline, and experience the exhilarating feeling of soaring through the clouds, just like their winged ancestors.

Indicative of their growth, the boutiques have been hiring at an impressive rate. Greenhill, for example, has added 26 managing directors in its advisory unit in the last 18 months, a 93% jump in head count. Its revenue per employee has fallen to around $900,000 from a high of $1.93 million in 2007, but it still remains higher than all its rivals except for Goldman. Another trend favoring the boutiques is that they all have expertise in restructuring, a trade very much in demand at the moment and one that is difficult for larger banks to ply because, as lenders to struggling companies, they are often conflicted. The emphasis on improved corporate governance has also favored the boutiques, according to JMP's Hecht. "Boards of directors
want a truly independent point of view when considering an acquisition and not just some large bank trying to earn a fee on the deal financing," he wrote. The boutiques also like to stress that they have a lot of senior dealmakers who bring gravitas to a boardroom, such as Evercore founder and Chairman Roger Altman, a former Deputy Treasury Secretary in the Clinton Administration. They portray the large banks as being filled with cocky youngsters more eager to sell products than to listen to what their clients want. "You're the same age as the board members, you're not someone who's just going through puberty," says John Studzinski, head of the advisory business of The Blackstone Group ( BX), a giant private equity firm with certain boutique-like characteristics.

Sharjah: With Sri Lanka making it to the final of the ongoing Coca Cola Cup tri-nation cricket series winning three league matches in a row, India would definitely like to gain the psychological upper hand by winning the last league match against the islanders ahead of Sunday's possible showdown for the title.A defeat in Thursday's match against India would send Zimbabwe packing, but Saurav Ganguly and his men would look for avenging their 5-wicket loss to the Lankans in the opening tie.
Sri Lanka are expected to experiment with their reserve strength, but coach Dave Whatmore made it clear that there would be no room for complacency. ''We would like to win everything and remain in the right habit,'' he said after the team's thumping 123-run win against Zimbabwe last night. ''There might be some physical changes (in the side), but mentally it will be the same,'' he said.After a three-day rest, India had to enter the second phase league with a depleted batting strength as vice-captain Rahul Dravid had to go out with a broken finger, the injury sustained while fielding in the last match against Zimbabwe.
Mohd Kaif was flown in as a replacement but it is likely that Ganguly will persist with Tamil Nadu batsman S Sriram to fill Dravid's slot for the remainder of the series.The Indian bowling also suffered a dent with Anil Kumble developing a sore shoulder and Ganguly saying that he would not like to risk him with a long series ahead. ''We will play him only if absolutely necessary like in the finals,'' Indian coach Aunshuman Gaekwad added as the players went through the paces ahead of the back-to-back league matches.Left-arm spinner Sunil Joshi, who came in for Kumble bowled admirable in the last match taking a wicket at a crucial juncture when Zimbabwe were steadily progressing towards the Indian total.
Ganguly has made known his preference for seamers saying they are one of the best in the world (along with the Pakistanis) for the slog overs.''Indian and Pakistani seamers are the best in the world for bowling in the slog overs,'' Ganguly said.UNI

5.0 stars 5 totalReview Lauren Cirlin
Posted by David
Lauren took over a very involved, complicated and ugly divorce. She hit the ground running!! She's thorough, competent, imaginative, reliable, and down right fantastic! I definitely came out on top thanks to Lauren.
Posted by Ganka H.
Lauren is extremely knowledgeable in her area of the law and is an indomitable advocate for her client's best interest. Her in-depth preparation of cases and prudent approach to issues calls for the respect of the opponents and carries the day in highly disputed court procedures.
Lauren has the unique talent of seeing through the strategy of the opposing party and spotting the weaknesses in arguments. I have observed Lauren obtain beneficial results for her client in situations where the other party initially had the upper hand. She is not intimidated easily by experience or aggressive argument and always rises to the occasion.
With Lauren by your side, a client is sure to get the best advice and the staunchest advocacy.
Posted by Laurie
"You get what you pay for"...After more than 6 months, 2 continuances, and a lot of false statements from the opposing party, Lauren clearly did her homework! The day of my alimony hearing, undaunted by her opponent, Ms. Cirlin respectfully put on her 'boxing gloves' and professionally 'knocked them out'. I couldn't be more greatful for her diligence and hard work on my behalf.
Posted by Sandy
Ms. Cirlin is providing excellent counsel. My situation involves a complicated community property business, and a special needs child (autistic). I recently graduated law school, and Ms. Cirlin and her firm came highly recommended. Her reputation for integrity, professionalism, and diligence has served me well. I am very pleased, and also note the managing partner, Lawrence Viola, provides excellent supervision. I feel confident with my choice of counsel, and highly endorse Ms. Cirlin. Any new areas of law she is quick and diligent to research-utilizing her professional resources and contacts.
Posted by anonymous
Ms. Cirlin worked diligently to get caught up on a difficult situation after my divorce trial where I was unrepresented and one major issue was found to be out of the court's jurisdiction. She and her firm, Viola Law, successfully petitioned for a re-trial, then successfully negotiated an out-of-court settlement that was fair for both parties.
Ms. Cirlin always empathetically listened to my point of view while at the same time provided sound, grounded advice that eventually led to closure on this chapter of my life.

Heath MacDonald, minister of economic development and tourism leaves the floor of the P.E.I. Legislature after the end of the day's sitting Friday, Nov. 13, 2015.
Finance P.E.I. will provide loans up to $15,000 per applicant for new, expanding businesses
A new provincial micro-loan program has been established to support entrepreneurship on Prince Edward Island.
Finance P.E.I. recently implemented the new program – a loan initiative for entrepreneurs that will help provide them with both financing and working capital.
New categories for the micro-loans include: trades, qualification recognition, small-scale food production, business start-up and winter production financing.
Finance P.E.I. will provide loans up to $15,000 per applicant for new and expanding businesses to further respond to the capital needs of entrepreneurs.
"We're thrilled to introduce new offerings to assist in the start-up of great entrepreneurial ideas," says Economic Development Minister Heath MacDonald.
"New entrepreneurs looking to start a business to call their own, individuals returning from out west, youth entrepreneurs, individuals looking for a career change, or current entrepreneurs looking to expand their business can all benefit from this type of support."
Wendy Drake, president of the Greater Charlottetown Area Chamber of Commerce says supporting entrepreneurs through initiatives like this is an important part of growing the Prince Edward Island economy.
"Access to capital is often a barrier for new and expanding businesses. Offerings such as the micro-loan program from Finance P.E.I. provide valued support to Island entrepreneurs."

Unusual places to meet the love of your lifePosted on: February 25, 2013 16:41:41
Don't be disheartened if you haven't had much luck finding love recently, as you could stumble across the one in the most unlikely of places.
You don't necessarily need to meet someone as a result of going to a speed dating event, after sharing a drunken kiss on a night out or an awkward blind date set up by mates, as even the most mundane of outings could be the place where you find someone special.
A trip to the supermarket or a visit to the local gym might seem like an unlikely time to find your dream person, but of course there are other UK singles out there doing the day to day tasks you do too.
So, be open to the idea of approaching people and similarly, don't shun people who might try to spark up a conversation with you if they take a shine to you. While it might be easier on a night out to put your flirting into practice and make the first move, there is no reason why you can't do the same by day when on public transport, in a shop or even in the workplace.
Dog owners also can have the opportunity of meeting someone when taking their pooch for a walk, with their four-legged friend providing a great way to start a conversation down at the local park.
According to Pets At Home, as many as one in four dog owners have found love when walking their pet, and there is no reason why you can't be part of that statistic too.
Maeve Moorcroft from the company said having an animal is a great way to make new friends, the Daily Mail reported.
"We tend to find that dog owners have a natural affinity with other dog owners," she said. "Talking about your dog's quirky habits or sharing tips on pet care can be great ice-breakers."
Of course, online dating is also a great way to find someone you are compatible with for friendship or more.
If you lead a busy life or want to avoid awkward single social events, then starting the search for love online can help you find someone, at a time best suited to you.
Looking to find other like-minded UK singles? Give online dating a go!

A supercargo (from Spanish sobrecargo) is a person employed on board a vessel by the owner of cargo carried on the ship. The duties of a supercargo are defined by admiralty law and include managing the cargo owner's trade, selling the merchandise in ports to which the vessel is sailing, and buying and receiving goods to be carried on the return voyage.
He has control of the cargo unless limited by his contract or other agreement. For instance, the supercargo has no authority over the stevedores, and he has no role in the necessary preparatory work prior to the handling of cargo. Because a supercargo sails from port to port with the vessel to which he is attached, he differs from a factor, who has a fixed place of residence at a port or other trading place.
|This section needs expansion. You can help by adding to it. (February 2014)
During the Age of Sail from the 16th to the mid-19th century the supercargo was the second most important person aboard a merchant ship after the captain.[1]
On ships of the Swedish East India Company (1731–1813), the supercargo represented the company and was in charge of all matters related to trade while the captain was in charge of navigation, loading and unloading of cargo as well as the maintenance of the ship. In reality, the captain could do nothing without a written order from the supercargo. A new supercargo was always appointed for each journey who also had to keep books, notes and ledgers about everything that happened during the voyage and trade matters abroad. He was to present these immediately to the directors of the Company on the ship's return to its headquarters in Gothenburg. The supercargo received a heavy fine for each day the books were delayed. Helping him in all this he had a staff of assistants: a concierge, a cook, a footman and his own ship's court consisting of seven persons. According to historical documents, the court remained busy throughout the voyage. The supercargo also had to maintain and run the company's factory at the trading destination.[2]
Having the highest rank aboard the ship, the supercargo also received the highest salary. In addition to this he received six percent of the value of the cargo the ship brought home.[3] Every person on board had the right to buy, bring home goods and sell them back in Sweden. The amount of goods permitted was regulated by the person's rank aboard the ship and his financial means. At the top of this list was the supercargo.[4]

CFO and Market Researcher who work hard, but enjoy getting away on relaxing family vacations. We think our rental property is in the perfect location and by sharing it with others we hope they'll think the same.
Jean Crumrine purchased this house in 2005
We've always loved the beach and want to share one of our favorite locations with others. You'll receive personal and direct attention from the first contact through your stay in our home.
We love the location of this home on the island. It's close enough to the center of the island that you can easily walk, but far enough that you aren't hearing any noise. The beach access is close and the beach is never crowded.
Our family started a countdown months before taking this vacation. For years and years our family has gone to Myrtle Beach but decided to try something a little different this year. We researched and located this home large enough to accomodate our family. We had such a wonderful time here. The grandkids loved the pool, the adults loved the porch and rocking chairs. The kitchen had everything we needed ... which was very helpful because we ate most meals here. We have already started discussing what week we would like to come back next year. Thanks for allowing us to stay in this beautiful home.
This house was amazing! This was the first time we had investigated this area and were extremely satisfied. The bedrooms and common areas were large and very modern to accommodate our 16 people. I would strongly recommend this house for a great getaway family vacation.
Last year was our first visit to Ocean Isle and to this beach house. Our family of 16 from ages 63 down to 2 loved it so much we returned this year. The house more than met all of our needs. The kitchen is very well stocked and has plenty of room as does the entire house for such a big family. We enjoyed the pool when we wasn't at the beach which is just a short walk . In the mornings we enjoyed having coffee and breakfast seeing the ocean. Jean was prompt getting back to us and made the process a breeze. Thank you for sharing your beautiful house with us!
Spacious, comfortable, nicely decorated, close to beach, and perfect for our family of 6 adults and three children! Having a bathroom for each bedroom was key for us! We loved the outside shower, and pool. It was very refreshing to cool off in the pool after a warm day at the beach. Kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. Our kids had a great time fishing off of the pier, playing putt putt, and playing in the ocean. The house had plenty of parking, and is pretty close to a grocery store. The beach access was just a few houses down. This access did not have a ramp for our wagon, but there were a few handicap accesses if needed. We liked that most of the rooms had TV sets with DVD players for night time relaxation. It was a very nicely decorated house, with a great A/C and large enough table for us to all eat or play cards. We liked the new key code lock system as well that made it much easier not having to keep up with a key at the beach. Thank you for a wonderful house, and response time on questions! Really the only suggestion we would have is to add a TV to the rooms without them, other than that we were highly satisfied with the rental and value.
Excellent beach house for family fun. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you need. The bedrooms were all large, nicely decorated, and very comfortable. We enjoyed the relaxing on the deck, playing some of the many board games, and cooling off in the pool. The beach was uncrowded with an entrance just a few houses down. I highly recommend this house for family vacations. The local activities were great with concerts, craft shows, and mini golf, if you want to stay close, but Myrtle Beach is just a short drive you want to take a drive. The Pirates Voyage show was fun for the everyone. We had a group of 12 with a lot of room to spare.
The house was large enough for 5 families. We have found that when you are vacationing with a lot of people having a bathroom for each family is a must. The rooms were large enough and none of us felt cramped. This home met all our needs, close to the ocean, great deck and a private pool. We have been at Ocean Isle multiple times and really liked all this home had to offer. We have stayed at the other end of the beach before so it gave us a different view and things to try-we liked The Perch for lunch and they had good entertainment on Thursday. The owner was prompt with information and getting back to us with any questions. It was a great place to stay, Thanks Jean.
Beach house was I/2 block away from beach access. Really enjoyed the front porch with outdoor table and chairs and comfortable rockers with a nice ocean view and breezes. The children spent a lot of time at the pool...with again plenty of seating. Loved the fact that each of the 5 bedrooms had their own bathroom. The 2 bathrooms that had hall access could just be closed off during the night and entered through the bedroom itself . Smallest bed was a double..hate it when house has a lot of twin or bunk beds. Their was also a new handicapped beach access about 2 blocks up which worked out great since we rented a golf cart to load up beach chairs and umbrella and grandchildren. (Husband on oxygen and myself needing knee replacement soon) Didn't plan on eating in often but found that the kitchen was very well stocked which made it easy.
Stocked with more games than could be imagined. Loved the two outdoor showers...very nice... hot and cold water.
Would highly recommend!!! Great for multiple families!!!
Owner called the first day...just to check in to be sure everything was OK. Very pleased overall!!

OUTDOORS NOTEBOOK: Online oil impact petition, Long-term campsites etc.
N.D. online petition tackles oil impacts
An outdoor recreation enthusiast from Dickinson, N.D., has launched an online petition drive to bring awareness to the impact the state's oil boom is having on recreation, tourism, wildlife and agriculture.
Marc Landblom said the petition drive is necessary because too little is being done to protect the Badlands and other public lands. The impact of the oil boom, he said, has been a "disaster" for North Dakota's wild places.
"Oil wells are being placed near campgrounds, on top of the Maah Daah Hey Trail and near the National Park boundaries," Landblom said. "Wildlife is being pushed around or out of their habitats and being replaced by well locations, roads, substations, etc.
"I realize that I sound like a tree hugger. But this is the truth."
Landblom said the petition has attracted attention across the state and even led him to Washington, where he addressed the issue on Capitol Hill.
"It has caught the attention of a few outdoor and recreation groups and brought them together to address the issues locally," Landblom said of the petition. "And it has allowed individuals to stand up and speak out in defense of our public lands. But there are still many people in the state that don't know about the petition."

Report outlines impact of warming climate
RESTON, Va. -- A new report from the National Wildlife Federation outlines the impact a warming world stands to have on fish and wildlife resources. "On Thin Ice: Warming Winters Put America's Hunting and Fishing Heritage at Risk," tells how this year's warm winter impacted hunters and anglers across America and details steps to protect the traditions for future generations.
A few examples:
- America had its fourth-warmest winter on record.
- 27 states across the Northern Plains, Midwest, Southeast and Northeast had winter temperatures among their 10 warmest on record.
- Winter snow cover ranked as the third-smallest on record.
- Trout fishing is threatened by reduced snowpack that feeds cold water to rivers.
- Ducks are "shortstopping" migrations, traveling only as far south as they need to go to find unfrozen water.
- Declining moose populations are tied to a global warming-fueled tick explosion.
"America's sportsmen have a special connection to the outdoors, and for that reason, we're on the front lines of global warming. It's impossible to ignore the changes happening before our eyes -- you don't need to be a scientist to know something is seriously wrong," Larry Schweiger, president and CEO of the National Wildlife Federation, said in a statement. "Climate change is also a threat to America's economy. The outdoor recreation industry supports 6 million jobs, contributes $730 billion a year in economic activity and delivers $49 billion in tax revenue."

The original and most widely studied PAC model for learning assumes a passive learner in the sense that the learner plays no role in obtaining information about the unknown concept. That is, the samples are simply drawn independently from some probability distribution. Some work has been done on studying more powerful oracles and how they affect learnability. To find bounds on the improvement that can be expected from using oracles, we consider active learning in the sense that the learner has complete choice in the information received. Specifically, we allow the learner to ask arbitrary yes/no questions. We consider both active learning under a fixed distribution and distribution-free active learning. In the case of active learning, the underlying probability distribution is used only to measure distance between concepts. For learnability with respect to a fixed distribution, active learning does not enlarge the set of learnable concept classes, but can improve the sample complexity. For distribution-free learning, it is shown that a concept class is actively learnable iff it is finite, so that active learning is in fact less powerful than the usual passive learning model. We also consider a form of distribution-free learning in which the learner knows the distribution being used, so that 'distribution-free' refers only to the requirement that a bound on the number of queries can be obtained uniformly over all distributions. Even with the side information of the distribution being used, a concept class is actively learnable iff it has finite VC dimension, so that active learning with the side information still does not enlarge the set of learnable concept classes.

Glee Whitney Houston
February 15, 2012 by staff
Glee Whitney Houston, "Glee" honored the late Whitney Houston last night — but it wasn't intentional.
Last night's Valentine's Day episode included Amber Riley performing one of Whitney's biggest hits, Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You" — but it was filmed long before the singer died Saturday in Los Angeles.
The performance was simple and understated, but still moving, especially in the wake of the singer's passing.
After her song aired, Amber tweeted "Ok I got through it, only minimal tears. I hope you are proud Ms. Houston. thanks guys for the kind words."
The show ended with a memorial title card as well.
