If this post had a hashtag, it would be #dormgoals or #smallspacegoals because this is exactly how I see it – imagine going back to school and decorating your dorm or apartment with these 12 beautiful things!? And a big BY THE WAY…. I clearly remember the good old days of blogging when you'd post something like, "10 things I love from Urban Outfitters" and it wasn't sponsored nor did UO give you a single product in exchange for the post. I miss those days because everything on blogs, and now even Instagram, is sponsored and it sort of makes me think that people don't really blog anymore unless there is some kind of cash incentive in it or something where they can get a kick back.
Well, in honor of the good old days, this post (like most all of my posts) is not sponsored and I get nothing from it except that I hope you will pin stuff and share it and maybe you will like my finds. I want most of these things and I'm wayyyy past college years – especially the string clip lights – how cute and original. So… check out my 12 picks and see what you like…
1. Firefly Clips String Lights, $20
2. Rohini Daybed Cushion, $159 available in 5 colorways
3. Mini refrigerator in three colorways, $149
4. Polaroid Zip Mobile Phone Photo Printer, available in two colors, $130
5. Large Wall Wire Grid, available in 2 colors, $129
6. White Cord Globe String Lights, $28 + 20% off for a limited time
7. Magical Thinking Pom-Fringe Duvet Cover, available in 2 colors and 3 sizes, $89-110
8. White Marble Keyboard Cover, $12 (laptop cover is $30)
9. Mini Instax Glitter Picture Frame, $6
10. Magical Thinking Dye Streak (cotton) Shower Curtain, $39
11. Paddywax Concrete Candle, $14 each
12. Assembly Home Theia Hanging Planter, $32 each
Don't you love these things? I do!!! Makes me want to go shopping. :)

Quaint 2 bedroom home close to downtown Rhinelander, schools and Hodag Park. As you enter the home you step into the entry way that has a storage closet, laundry area and makes a nice mud room. The flow of the home then brings you to the kitchen and into a large living room with lots of natural light. The two bedrooms are off of the living room and a window lined enclosed porch faces the street. The living room is large enough that one could use a portion of it for a dining area. Full bath is off the kitchen. There is a new water heater and many of the windows have been updated. Exterior of the home offers a 2 car detached garage, blacktop driveway, close line, shed and a large backyard.

Dreams Los Cabos Suites Golf Resort And Spa, Los Cabos
Dreams Los Cabos Suites Golf Resort And Spa Reviews
Add a review
22 November 2010
Great all-inclusive, close enough to town but in lovely, quiet location
Mary Darlington, Cirencester
A great stay from start to finish - quality accommodation, great location right on the amazing beach. Good food, friendly willing hotel staff gave good service throughout. Quiet pool was lovely at the side of the hotel, but the larger pool right out the front is also available if you prefer a bit more action. Resort was 75% full while we were there but it never felt too busy, and there was always pool space available. Good facilities (gym, pool tables, table tennis, tennis, spa etc), 5 restaurants and numerous bars. There's a wedding probably every day, but they don't encroach on your holiday and the music never goes on too late. Highly recommended all-inclusive hotel.
The best thing about my stay was ...
Perfect weather at a great resort

A businessman in Alexandroupoli, northeastern Greece, was murdered outside his home by robbers early on Monday.
The 63-year-old was approached by two men on a motorcycle as he left his home in the village of Nea Hili, according to police. The robbers shot the businessman twice in the chest and stole his briefcase.
Officers collected a total of 10 bullet casings from the scene.

The Infomation Commisioner's Office (ICO) report for 2010/2011, released earlier this week, expresses disappointment with the response it has received from organisations that are at particularly high risk of a data breach. The ICO revealed it has contacted a number of private sector organisations, including lenders, general business and direct marketing companies which account for almost a third of total complaints, but less than one in five were willing to submit to a data protection audit.
Ross Brewer, vice president and managing director for international markets, LogRhythm, has made the following comments:
"This year has been punctuated with a number of high profile organisations that have fallen victim to data breach. As a result you would think those deemed high risk* by the ICO would welcome its help in identifying and resolving any potential weaknesses. However, the behaviour of those refusing audits is indicative of the attitude that led to this situation in the first place. Too many organisations are in denial about the scale of the threat and the possibility that they will be affected."
"One of the main reasons these companies are so in need of the ICO's help is that they are unlikely to have taken steps to develop a full understanding of their IT systems. All IT networks generate log data that can be used monitor performance and identify anomalies. However, due to a number of factors, including the volume of logs produced and sometimes just plain ignorance, many organisations are not using this crucial information effectively. Aside from accepting the ICOs assistance, these organisations should be looking to implement centralised, automated systems that provide the traceability required to spot weaknesses and, if aberrant activity does occur, provide real-time alerts so immediate action can be taken."
*Risk assessment took into account a number of factors such as volume and type of data an organisation holds, complaints received by the ICO and cases where enforcement action was considered

Overcorrected ptosis after levator resection two weeks ago?
Doctor Answers 2
Ptosis Surgery Recovery
To me, based on the photographs, you have an optimal result with nice symmetry and contour. I would not suggest manipulating the surgical site. I think once the swelling resolves, you will be very happy with the result.
There is nothing wrong with this result.
You are not over corrected. Stop messing with your eyelid or you will wreck your result. Please follow your surgeon's advice. They seem to know what they are doing.

Time and again children tell us how we provided the first opportunity for them to see and hear a musical instrument, how they felt the power of live music making the hairs on their head "stand up," how excited they were to see their own artwork displayed prominently in a professionally mounted exhibition for all to see.
A child carries these experiences of discovery, joy, and pride with them for the rest of their lives.
For as little as $6, you can make an arts experience possible for a child. Learn more here.

customer reviews for child safety
By Judy from Macedonia
I really appreciate reading the reviews when I am considering a productView this product
"They do the Job"
By Cindy from Washington State
We purchased these shades to keep our living room cool while preserving the view. It has a southwestern exposure and really got hot. These shades keep the room cool and we can still see our view. It's great! I thought I would have to use a valance to cover the roller because I thought it would be unattractive. I was wrong. I am not going to cover them after all. They look very sharp.View this product

How Many Maps Will Star Wars Battlefront Have?
EA hasn't yet confirmed exactly how many maps Star Wars Battlefront has yet, but we can establish that it will have more than initially might have been thought at launch.
DICE's Niklas Fegraeus said, via Twitter, that Star Wars: Battlefront will include four planets from the Star Wars universe and that each would have more than one map to play on.
Somehow, this was interpreted as saying that Star Wars: Battlefront will have two maps per planet and, therefore, a total of eight at launch.
However, Fegraeus has clarified his statement by saying that there will be more than two maps per planet and more than eight maps at launch.
There will be more maps than 8, and more than two per planet at launch. https://t.co/FWk8qb6nGk

|Special Mention
Day 203
Yesterday, I hid myself in a small cave in the ceiling of the underground lake.
For breakfast: the King Crab・ Crysora that I didn't eat yesterday. Seeing as it was crab, I wanted to boil it in a pot, though I enjoyed the raw meat nonetheless.
The leg I pulled out had tender meat inside.
It's odd that a fragment of the meat of the leg didn't become tense, as it supported a big frame of a few dozen tons and still made it possible to do high-speed movements. The meat had a firm elasticity, as I bit off enough to fill my entire mouth.
And as I ate the crab bite by bite, each bite was accompanied with a burst of rich sweet flavor. The surge in flavor on my tongue hit my brain like a jolt of lightning, almost overloading me with dopamine and pleasure substances.
To be honest, it was more delicious than the Wyvern meat. The meat had a peculiar flavor, which made it very delicious. It's a very rich taste, which you wouldn't expect for a crab. Somehow it's refreshing.
【Ability learned: 【Bubble Breath ・ Acid】】
【Ability learned: 【Crystal ・ Quartz】】
【Ability learned: 【Pressurized Lightning Cannon】】
Being overjoyed because I obtained many offensive abilities, I continued to swim in the underground lake today.
The underground lake has fewer traps than the others, and there weren't a lot of dungeon monsters either. But because there are rocks sticking out randomly, making some locations very narrow, I needed to be precise in my movements.
Looking around, I spotted small caves here and there, all of them on their own, without any direct connection between them. It is necessary to swim in order to go forward, and because it's so dim I am often close to being cut by the rocks.
However, once I got used to it, there were hardly any crashes and I was able to gather items along the way, while I went forward as fast as possible.
I was able to arrive at the deepest part of the 20th floor just before noon.
A large circular space was hollowed out here, very different from bare rock surface that remained, with a diameter slightly exceeding 100 meters.
Large bubbles bubbled up from countless of empty holes in the ground of about 10 centimeters. There appeared to be a small enclave near the ceiling that was filled with air, though it was very small. Overall, the battlefield was set in water.
The sources of light on the ceiling and the floor only consist of small amount of glowing shellfish and glowing moss growing naturally on the walls, making this a beautiful place filled in blue transparent light.
The name of the floor boss that you need to fight here is "Vortex Shell Turtle".
It descended the hollow-out circular space in the center, defended by a massive, extremely solid, moving shell. This huge blue turtle is around 8 meters.
The shell has a hardness that equals dragon scales, with a dozen of pointed protrusions existing on top of it. The protrusions are hollow on the inside, it looks somewhat like the image of a syringe.
While the Vortex Shell Turtle is not moving it manipulates the flow of water in the space with its protrusions. They suck in a large quantity of water, compress it and spew it out again. This creates a huge vortex that can catch an invader trying to attack and can suffocate him.
Even if the opponent doesn't die, he would have to pass through the solid shell protecting it and try to scrape it off with his attacks. *chima chima* This combined with the terrain makes it a formidable adversary.
Honestly, an effective capture method doesn't exist.
The thick shell has the ability to complete negate any damage below a fixed amount through either intense heat, lightning, ice and/or physics.
If you assume it's possible to win, you have to forcibly smash up the facade for which it's essential that you use overwhelming violence.
【Floor boss [Shell Turtle ・ Vortex] successfully eliminated. 】
【Achiever Yatendouji is permitted to proceed to the next floor, floor boss [Shell Turtle ・ Vortex] can hereafter be passed without battle 】
【Achiever Yatendouji has been Awarded the 【Shell of the Vortex Mary River Turtle[1]】as a first time subjugation bonus 】
【Achiever Yatendouji has been Assigned the Rare Skill 【Sinker】 as a bonus for a solo kill】
Though the defense of the Vortex Shell Turtle was solid, once you force your way through the vortex, it's relatively easy to cling on for a moment and finish dealing with it.
It was simple work for me to destroy the shell as I beat it endlessly with my silver arm. I did need some time because it was a big bird to bring down.
After I killed it, I collected the corpse and the chest that was in the form of a turtle and continued to the 21st floor.
The 21st floor was an overturned river with pillars of milky white stone pillars next to it. There were 3 ships of magic metal.

I relied quite a bit on the google translated version rather than just correcting grammatical errors, so there may be some slight changes on the content as well. It's more accurate anyway. ~Akioni
Hi i just went though what you did and edited the grammar, but there wasn't much to edit. ~Anubbisk

Day 203
Last night, I went to bed hiding within a small room located in the ceiling of the underground lake.
Today's breakfast was the [Crystal King Crab] meat that I didn't dare to eat yesterday. I wanted to try turning it into soup because it was a crab, but I ate it raw instead. After ripping off one of its legs, I began to eat its soft flesh. This leg was truly abnormal, to be able to move with such high-speed maneuverability despite supporting a body that could easily weight several dozen tons. The meat was firm and elastic, on top of that my mouth was filled with juice with a single bite.
The inherent sweetness of the crab's meat filled my mouth, and the overwhelming sense of pleasure gushing forth from my tongue struck me like lightning.
Honestly, it was much tastier than the Wyvern's meat. While the Wyvern's meat certainly has a unique taste to it, the unbelievable richness of the crab was somewhat refreshing
Ability [Corrosive Bubble Breath] learned
Ability [Crystalline Wave Vibration] learned
Ability [Pressurized Thunder Cannon] learned
While being pleased from gaining so many offensive abilities, I continued my voyage to the bottom of the lake.
Although there weren't many traps and monsters about, just navigating through the disorderly piles of protruding sharp rocks and tight spaces takes quite a bit of nerve.
Naturally there are small rooms located here and there, dotting the landscape. But since they weren't connected, You'd have to swim to go from one to the other. On top of that, it was rather dim here, so you're quite susceptible to injuries from the rocks.
Once you get used to it though, it wasn't much of a problem. I was advancing as quickly as possible while collecting any items I came across.
After lunch I was able to reach the 20th floor. In front of me lies a hollowed out large circular dome that could have easily reached over 100 meters in diameter.
Innumerable bubbles 10 centimeters in diameter began to bubble up from the ground. There seems to be an air pocket on the ceiling of the dome like a small room, but the majority of the space is filled with water, for aquatic combat.
The only source of light in this room comes from [Bio-luminescent Shellfish] and glowing moss that grew naturally on the walls, filling the room with a crystal clear blue light. The room looked beautiful.
So the name of the boss in this room is [Vortex Armored Turtle]. It appears to be a giant blue turtle stuck to the center of the room, 8 meters in length, protected by a terribly thick carapace. In addition to being possessed of a hardness comparable to dragon scales and crustaceans, it also had tens of hollowed spikes covering it, not unlike syringe needles.
The turtle attacks by siphoning water with its spikes, creating a whirlpool that draws the victim towards it, drowning it in the process before dealing the finishing blow itself.
It relies on its hard shell to fend off enemy attacks while it feeds. Combining this with the surrounding terrain, this makes for quite a hard foe.
Frankly, there is no effective way to deal with this boss.
The thick armor has the ability to nullify lightning, ice, water, heat, and physical attacks to a certain extent.
To win, you need sufficient force to crush his forehead.
[Dungeon Boss [Vortex Armored Turtle] successfully eliminated]
[Yatendouji recognized the right of further progress, choice to further advance without fighting the dungeon boss [Vortex Armored Turtle] is now available]
[As a bonus for eliminating the boss for the first time, Yatendouji will receive the treasure box [Tortoise Hiding in the Vortex]]
[As a bonus for [Solo Kill], Yatendouji will be sent the rare ability [Utopia]]
The carapace protecting the turtle certainly was hard, but once you disperse the whirlpool, the fight becomes relatively easy. A blow from my silver arm was enough to break its outer armor, but due to its sheer size, it took a while to kill him.
After collecting the treasure box as well as the carcass of the turtle, I advanced towards the 21st floor. On the 21st floor was a river, surrounded by milky white columns, 3 magical metal vessels were docked on the shores.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
My husband and I have been separated for 2 years. Our children live with me and only visit him every other saturday. I am claiming the children on my tax return. I have read the IRS guidelines and I meet the qualifications. However, I think that my husband is also planning to claim them although I am pretty sure I would have to sign a consent form. What will happen if he does this? We have no agreements through the court on any matter other than child support.
The IRS will generally contact the second to file. The first time the SSN is used, it will not be questioned. The second person to file will trigger an alert because they are using a SSN that has already been claimed as a dependent.
Just be ready if they contact you.The language of the divorce decree or child custody agreement is very persuasive. Mail from the child's school which is addressed to the parent is very convincing. If a parent clearly lives in the district where the child attends school, this is also hard for the non-custodial parent to overcome. These are the types of indicia that prove the child lives with one parent for a greater portion of the year. You will probably think of some yourself. Just be prepared to send copies to the IRS if they ask.
Christopher Larson
Insight Law
Since your child lives with you, you are the custodial parent. You are correct that he would need a Form 8332 release from you to take the deduction. If he claims the deduction too the IRS will send you both a letter asking why you should receive the deduction. Explain the situation to them and you should prevail.
Any individual seeking legal advice for their own situation should retain their own legal counsel as this response provides information that is general in nature and not specific to any person's unique situation. Circular 230 Disclaimer - Advice given in this response cannot be used to eliminate penalties with the IRS or any other governmental agency.Ask a similar question
I agree with my colleagues on this matter. This is not an uncommon event. Divorce often creates tension regarding the children as deductions. If there is a problem, you should contact your divorce lawyer and address this matter in court. It is ALWAYS best to have a custodial agreement that does not leave important matters unanswered.Ask a similar question
This is excellent advise and will take the guess work out of who gets the deduction for the children. Even though a non-custodial parent is awarded the deduction the IRS still requires the custodial parent to sign a form 8332 to release the deduction to the non-custodial parent.
Agreed with all answers. It appears you are entitled to claim the benefit and a Form 8332 would be advantageous. But, some other non-tax factors to consider are your relationship with the father & your incomes. Sometimes the couples work it out so that the person who gets the most benefit claims the child and the taxpayers split the refund in some agreed way.Ask a similar question

The U.S. Senate today accepted an amendment authored by U.S. Senator Thad Cochran (R-Miss.) that will give Mississippi an important role in a proposed levee project that could result in new flood threats to the Mississippi Gulf Coast if not carefully studied with input from affected parties.
The Cochran amendment was incorporated into a package of amendments added to the Water Resources Development Act of 2013 (S.601 or WRDA) on Tuesday. It is the end product of three amendments introduced by Cochran last week.
The modified Cochran amendment clarifies that a section of the bill related to Gulf Coast flood protection does not authorize construction or program assistance for a flood control barrier across the Lake Pontchartrain land bridge, and that any study to advance such a project must include the consultation and approval of the governors of Mississippi and Louisiana.
"The amendment ensures that Governor Bryant will have a seat at the table if and when projects that could affect Mississippi are considered. It will give Mississippians a role in guaranteeing that a flood control project built by our neighbors won't inadvertently increase flood risk on our side of the border," Cochran said.
Cochran, who serves on the Senate appropriations subcommittee that funds the Army Corps of Engineers, expressed his appreciation to Senators Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) and David Vitter (R-La.), the chairman and ranking member of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, for working with him to reach a consensus on his amendment.
"We needed to clearly address the flood and storm surge risks that projects in Louisiana would have on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Senator Vitter has helped manage this bill in a professional manner and has protected his interests, but he understands that Mississippi has a role to play going forward," Cochran said.
Last week, the senior Senator from Mississippi introduced three amendments to WRDA that dealt with the prospect of unintended flooding in Mississippi caused by new flood protection structures built in Louisiana. (http://1.usa.gov/190lL4o)
The text of the approved Cochran amendment to Section 3018 of S.601 states:
* "Nothing in this section or amendment made by this section constitutes an authorization to construct a project or program associated with a storm surge barrier across the Lake Pontchartrain land bridge (including Chef Menteur Pass and the Rigolets) that would result in unmitigated induced flooding in coastal communities within the State of Mississippi," and that
* "Any study to advance a project described in paragraph (1) that is conducted under the General Investigations Account of the Corps of Engineers shall include consultation and approval of the Governors of the States of Louisiana and Mississippi."
The Senate on Wednesday is expected to complete debate on WRDA, which is the federal law that authorizes Army Corps of Engineers water conservation and development projects throughout the country.

61" Bunton ZTR, bought it used for a steal (at least I think so) and love it so far!
New dixie chopper classic 60" and a bob-cat 52". I will hopefully be replacing the bob-cat in the next year or two with a john deere quik trak 48".
I like the dixie and the dealer is great. The bob-cat is a good machine but the dealer is horrible, I refuse to do business with them anymore. And the deere dealer is awesome and has bent over backwards for to help me make my decision on the quik trak.
As for now, I'm very satisfied with Hustler mowers.
We run Exmark and Wright. Would like to add Lastec.
Ferris is not on the list
what no gravely? we demoeed everything 2 years ago 1 week per machine (sved me from buying one for a whole season) and the gravely was by far the best machine.we now have 6 gravely260s 1 has 1800 hrs on it and it runs like new cuts great and little maintenance. 1 grease zert.
i run john deere for special jobs toro and mtd for most other jobs
I will run my tank for a lot longer but when it is time to buy again I would buy another.
Gravely for 3 years; no problems; cuts great; mulching set up; no reason to spend more
My one Wright Stander has 1484hrs on deck. Motor was changed about 2yrs ago from the 15hp to 17hp when the motor went and still going strong. The deck is shot and welded all over. Too much hopping curbs. And the piece that covers the blades has also been welded. The middle of the deck just colapsed. But I have to say it cut like a champ till the day it retired. Keeping for parts. The other one is a 15hp also 36". You forgot Great Dane. I have a 52".

High profile British politician resigns over video allegedly showing him taking drugs with prostitutes
A high profile British politician has resigned as Deputy Speaker of the House of Lords after a video emerged allegedly showing him taking drugs with prostitutes.
In the film obtained by the Sun on Sunday, Lord Sewel, who had responsibility for enforcing standards in the Upper House, is shown with two women at his flat in Dolphin Square, Pimlico, a couple of miles from parliament.
In the Sun on Sunday footage a naked Lord Sewel is seen snorting white powder from a woman's breasts using a five-pound note.
In between snorting lines of white powder, Lord Sewel is heard complaining that he struggles to afford the £1,000 a month rent on the flat.
The peer is asked whether he receives expenses and explains that he now gets a flat-rate allowance of £200 a day.
"It's all changed and disappeared. People were making false claims," he said. "Members of her Lordship's House who are right thieves, rogues and b*****ds at times. Wonderful people that they are."
He is now facing a police investigation after Lords speaker Baroness D'Souza branded the peer's behaviour "shocking and unacceptable" and said she was calling in Scotland Yard.
"Today's revelations about the behaviour of Lord Sewel are both shocking and unacceptable. Lord Sewel has this morning resigned as chairman of committees," Lady D'Souza said in a statement.
"The House of Lords will continue to uphold standards in public life and will not tolerate departure from these standards.
"These serious allegations will be referred to the House of Lords Commissioner for Standards and the Metropolitan Police for investigation as a matter of urgency."

The whole world kicks off the racing season in Daytona
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (January 17, 2002) -- Motor racing is a many faceted sport with plenty of individual disciplines and formats. But, once a year the broad spectrum of the sport comes together for the ultimate test of man and machine - the Rolex 24 At Daytona.
This year is no exception. With entries still coming in, the current field of 70 cars and more than 200 drivers has American entrants from 27 states and international drivers representing 18 countries from around the world.
Among that global list of racing talent are champions and participants from nearly every major discipline - sports car racing, Formula 1, Indy Car, Winston Cup, Busch Grand National, Craftsman Trucks, Trans-Am, USAC and off-road racing.
Thirteen drivers on the current entry list are former Rolex 24 At Daytona winners - Mauro Baldi (1998), Christophe Bouchut (1995), Rob Dyson (1997, 1999), Elliott Forbes-Robinson (1997, 1999), Paul Gentilozzi (1994), Hurley Haywood (1973, 1975, 1977, 1979, 1991), Jan Lammers (1990), Butch Leitzinger (1994, 1997), John Schneider (1997), Scott Sharp (1996), Didier Theys (1998), Andy Wallace (1990, 1997, 1999) and James Weaver (1997).
Of those former winners, three hold a special distinction. Only seven drivers in the history of racing have managed to earn victories at Daytona, Sebring and LeMans during their careers. Baldi, Haywood and Wallace are among that elite group. Another name could be added to that prestigious list if Steffan Johannson is able to capture the overall victory at Daytona.
Add in championship drivers like Jack Baldwin, Ross Bentley, Tommy Byrne, Alex Caffi, Jean-Luc Chereau, Wally Dallenbach Jr., Cor Euser, Kevin Harvick, Robby Gordon, Ralf Kelleners, Jan Lammers, Anthony Lazzaro, Geoff Lister, Sascha Maassen, Max Papis, Kyle Petty, Boris Said, Dorsey Schroeder, Jeret Schroeder, Tony Stewart and Eric van de Poele and the 2002 Rolex 24 At Daytona is set to be one of the best races ever.
The 40th Anniversary of the Rolex 24 At Daytona will kick off the 2002 Rolex Sports Car Series season, as well as SpeedWeeks at Daytona International Speedway. Tickets are currently on sale for the Rolex 24 At Daytona and may be purchased online at www.daytonainternationalspeedway.com or by calling the Speedway ticket office at 386-253-RACE. The Rolex 24 At Daytona will be broadcast on Speedvision.

Van Gaal defends Memphis Depay after his Holland snub
Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal giving his full backing to Memphis Depay after the youthful winger was left out of the latest Dutch national team squad.
Depay was a star turn in the Holland side Van Gaal guided to the 2014 World Cup semi-finals, but he has struggled to make a consistent impact since his move to United last summer.
Depay's exclusion from the 26-man squad could have been accelerated by an injury he has been carrying, yet national team boss Danny Blind hinted he had "problems" to resolve before he could return for national duty.
"Depay fits qualitatively in the future of Dutch football, but it's just the way that other issues also play a role," said Blind.
"In the world of football you have to be able to function in a team and Depay does not always (do that)."
Van Gaal insisted Depay will bounce back from his latest disappointment.
"He is the greatest talent of his age," Van Gaal said. "He is only 21. That is an age where you cannot expect consistency.
"He is also in a phase of his career and he has to adapt to many things.
"I have expected this but I am also convinced he is coming back stronger than before.
"But we have to give him time like we have to give time to Anthony Martial when he is a bit lower in his shape but maybe Anthony Martial shall continue scoring goals and helping us to win the matches but I expect also that he shall have a bit of a dip in form."
Robin van Persie was another big name omission from the Dutch national team squad, amid suggestions that the former United and Arsenal striker may have played his last game at international level.

Absolute Monarchy
Benefits of Absolute Monarchy
Comparison to 'The Giver'
In 'The Giver' the elders are basically a 'supreme ruler.' A supreme ruler is in other words, is an absolute monarchy, Except for the fact that they don't make a big deal about it. They are basically, 'silent rulers.' They have lots of power, but hide in the background.
King Louis the XIV
By: John, Luci, and Maddy
The Monarch
The Monarch has control over:
the price of taxes
foreign policy
Make foreign policy
declare wars
say who to worship
change the cost of taxes
King Louis the XIV wanted to make all the major decisions. He quoted, "Don't sign anything, not even a passport."
Kings are chosen by a higher power, such as the king at the time.
Absolute Monarchy is where the King, Queen, Emperor, or Empress is in charge of everything and everyone. The helpers can only give suggestions.
Current Absolute Monarchs of the World:
King Abdullah (Saudi Arabia)
King Mswati III (Swaziland)
Charles III (England)
Someone who plots against the king will not go to jail they will for sure be killed.
An absolute monarchy government is the best government because if you are the monarch, your power is not limited by the laws or the Constitution.
King louis the 13th banned all the churches except the catholic ones because he was catholic.

FileTrek In European Distribution Deal
Los Angeles-based FileTrek, the cloud-based file sharing, collaboration, and revision tracking software firm headed by Dale Quale, said today that it has linked with a European firm in a distribution deal. The firm said the partnership with Empowered Technology will help it meet demand and increasing opportunities in Europe. Financial details of the partnership were not announced. FileTrek's software allows for file sharing, with the twist that the cloud-based service also handles managing tracking of revisions of documents, and includes a number of team workflow features. FileTrek is backed by Anthem Venture Partners, Telesystem, and the Ontario Emerging Technologies Funds, and Quayle is a technology vet, having last led Integrien, which he sold to VMware in 2010.

1 Corinthians 11:23-26 is about a meal. It didn't take place in Rome, the focal point of the world at that time. It took place in Jerusalem, a city of captivity which would be destroyed forty years after the meal.

Review Roundup: Seth MacFarlane Comedy A MILLION WAYS TO DIE IN THE WEST
'Family Guy' creator Seth MacFarlane steps in front of the camera for the very first time in the new comedy 'A Million Ways to Die in the West', which opened today, May 30th. MacFarlane wrote, directed, and stars in the film.
The plot revolves around sheep farmer Albert (played by MacFarlane), who loses his girlfriend (Amanda Seyfried) after withdrawing from a duel out of cowardice. After falling in love with another woman (Charlize Theron) and regaining his courage, he is forced to face face his new love's ex fiancee (Liam Neeson), who seeks revenge against Albert for stealing his ex-wife.
The film features a star-studded cast, including MacFarlane, Amanda Seyfried, Charlize Theron, Liam Neeson, Sarah Silverman, and Neil Patrick Harris.
Let's see what the critics had to say!
Stephen Holden, The New York Times: If the plot of "A Million Ways to Die in the West" isn't as helter-skelter as a typical episode of "Family Guy," the movie is really still a live-action spinoff of that cartoon, with different characters.
Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News: But all these first-rate performers are pushed to the sidelines so the movie's creator can also be its undisputed leading man. Unfortunately, he doesn't yet have the generosity required to build any real connections: to the character, his co-stars or the audience, which is left with a giant hole where there should be some heart.
Scott Foundas, Variety: In following up his 2012 smash "Ted" with a lavish comic Western,Seth MacFarlane has delivered a flaccid all-star farce that's handsomely dressed up with nowhere to go for most of its padded two-hour running time.
Betsy Sharkey, Los Angeles Times: MacFarlane is a very funny dude, and there are times "A Million Ways to Die" is indeed funny. But too often the movie feels half-baked.

Donald Trump came under fire from his Republican rivals during Tuesday night's presidential debate — a prime-time event that featured candidates tussling over who would be toughest in protecting America from terror threats.
Almost all presidential hopefuls united against Trump's plan to bar Muslims from entering the United States — except Ted Cruz, who not only refrained from directly berating the business mogul, but also said he understands why Trump proposed this ban.
In fact, the Texas senator has a plan of his own when it comes to Muslims and terrorism.
"I understand why Donald made this proposal," Cruz began, breaking his silence on the inflammatory proposal. "I introduced legislation in the Senate that I believe is more narrowly focused at the actual threat which is radical Islam terrorist. … What my legislation would do is suspend all refuges for three years from countries where ISIS controls substantial territory."
While Trump does not have an ally in Cruz, it is no secret the two have maintained a somewhat neutral relationship in public so far. Some even believe the Texas senator hopes to win over Trump's supporters eventually.
"In this instance there are millions of peaceful Muslims across the world like India where there is not the problems we are seeing in nations that are controlled by Al Qaeda or ISIS," Cruz continued, adding he doesn't agree with Trump. "We should direct at the problem and focus on the problem and defeat radical Islamic terrorism. It's not a war on a faith it's a war on a political and theological ideology that seeks to murder us."
Well, at this point in time, Cruz's future plans to ban refugees coming in from ISIS-controlled areas do not seem much different from what Trump has proposed. Perhaps Trump is not the only candidate to look out for when it comes to Islamophobia.

Examining the Regulation of Investment Banks by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
Securities, Insurance and Investment Subcommittee of the Senate Banking Committee
May 7, 2008
Comments of Cate Long, Multiple-Markets
I appreciate an opportunity to forward comments to the Subcommittee on the regulation of investment banks by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Like members of Congress and other market participants I have been concerned that our regulatory framework may have gaps which developed as our capital markets have evolved and accelerated.
The draining of liquidity from Bear Stearns which lead to its near failure on March 16 demonstrated the high level of interconnectedness that exists between our largest broker dealers.
The concentrated reliance of our largest investment banks on each other for funding and liquidity lead to the need for the New York Federal Reserve to mediate and fund the acquisition of Bear Stearns by JP Morgan Chase.
This extraordinary action by the New York Federal Reserve has lead some market commentators to suggest that the oversight of our largest investment banks (who are the Federal Reserve's primary dealers) should be transferred to the Federal Reserve.
I believe that this is a direction that Congress should pursue with great caution and deliberation.
The Exchange Acts of 1933 and 1934 have generally created an effective framework for securities regulation. Recent events suggest that additional authority for the SEC, beyond the scope of the '33 and '34 Acts might be necessary to enhance America's role of having the freest, most transparent and deep capital markets.
Recent proposals for reform put forward by the Presidents Working Group enshrine "market stability" as a prime regulatory function.
The elevation of "market stability" as a central regulatory premise would represent a landmark shift in our approach to regulating the securities markets.
The '33 and '34 Acts embody the principles of disclosure, transparency and the varied responsibilities that parties operating in the markets have towards each other.
Granting a regulatory entity the responsibility for "market stability" was not the focus of lawmaking in the aftermath of the Great Depression.
We can assume that Congress and the Roosevelt administration believed that financial markets would inherently regulate their own stability if they operated in an open and transparent manner.
If markets are going to regulate their own stability the truth is that some firms will fail through difficult parts of a credit cycle.
If we believe that markets naturally create successful and unsuccessful firms then the failure of Bear Stearns was an ordinary market event.
Bear's counterparties and creditors acted on their belief that the firm was over-leveraged and unstable.
These counterparties sought additional compensation for the risk of transacting with Bear or in many instances "backed away" from lending and trading which they had formerly engaged in.
Bear's counterparties, who trade and lend to the firm on a daily basis, were in the best position to judge the stability of Bear.
Bear's counterparties were in a much closer relationship to judge creditworthiness and stability than a regulator who operates on secondary and delayed information.
SEC Chairman Cox made the following statement in his testimony to the Senate Banking Committee on April 3, 2008 (page 2)
~~~~ "…In the cauldron of these events, the actions that the Federal Reserve took – in particular, extending access to the discount window not only to Bear Stearns, but also to the major investment banks – were addressed to preventing future occurrences of the run-on-the-bank phenomenon that Bear endured.
It remains, however, for regulators and Congress to consider what other steps, if any, are necessary to harmonize this significant new safeguard with other aspects of the existing legislative scheme, and the regulatory structure that resulted from the enactment of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act.
The SEC, of course, does not have the function of extending credit or liquidity facilities to investment banks or to any regulated entity.
Instead, through our consolidated supervised entities (CSE) program, the Commission exercises oversight of the financial and operational condition of Bear Stearns, Goldman Sachs, Lehman Brothers, Merrill Lynch, and Morgan Stanley at both the holding company and regulated entity levels.
Our oversight of the CSEs includes monitoring for firm-wide financial and other risks that might threaten the regulated entities within the CSE, especially the U.S. regulated broker-dealer and their customers and other regulated entities, here and abroad.
In particular, the SEC requires that firms maintain an overall Basel capital ratio at the consolidated holding company level of not less than the Federal Reserve's 10% "well-capitalized" standard for bank holding companies. CSEs provide monthly Basel capital computations to the SEC.
The CSE rules also provide that an "early warning" notice must be filed with the SEC in the event that certain minimum thresholds, including the 10% capital ratio, are breached or are likely to be breached.
At all times during the week of March 10 – 17, up to and including the time of its agreement to be acquired by JPMorgan Chase, Bear Stearns had a capital cushion well above what is required to meet the Basel standards…." ~~~~
The markets knew that Bear Stearns was failing. Bear was the first and most significant broker-dealer casualty of the credit crisis of '07-'08.
The failure of Bear has clearly raised the specter that broker dealers operating with leverage ratios of 30-1 risk collapse in unsteady market conditions. Hopefully this event has spurred other large broker dealers to delever. Markets have absorbed this lesson and investment banks are supplementing their balance sheets accordingly.
I believe that the Committee has several useful paths for information gathering and review.
1. What signals and methods of information gathering is the SEC utilizing to assess the soundness and liquidity of the CSE participants? (How is the Commission working with the Federal Reserve and international regulators? Is the Commission utilizing publicly available market data such as subscribing to various credit default swaps pricing services?)
2. Is the oversight broad enough in scope? Should it encompass all the major broker dealers?
3. Is additional lawmaking necessary to give the SEC the required authority in this area?
4. What authority does the SEC require to ensure the orderly dissolution or sale of an unsound CSE participant?
5. Does the SEC require additional resources to fund this program?
Also it might be useful for the purposes of the Subcommittee to request that the SEC and various trade groups such as SIFMA, ISDA, and FIX Protocol prepare backgrounding information on the current state of the financial markets.
This backgrounder could include the following types of information:
1. Trade volume and product mix of the registered exchanges
2. Size and member mix of the self regulatory organizations (SROs)
3. The levels of leverage and asset quality of the major broker dealers (i.e. levels of Level 1, 2 and 3 assets)
4. The size and ownership of the various ATS (alternative trading systems)
5. Information on the tiered pricing used by broker dealers to various types of buyside clients and other counterparties
6. The volumes of trading conducted over-the-counter for various products (for example who are the dominant dealers)
7. The condition of the interdealer market for various products
8. The extent of reliance of the major broker dealers on each other for liquidity and funding and the levels of borrowing they have done at the Federal Reserve (liquidity concentration)
9. Any feedback from the trade groups on areas of regulatory weaknesses
10. Any feedback concerning lack of transparency and competition in the financial markets
I laud the efforts of the Subcommittee in this vital area of inquiry.
I thank the Subcommittee and Chairman Reed for an opportunity to forward these comments.
Please advise if I may provide additional information.

Takeover talk was circling Inmarsat again last night, as the return of vague bid rumours sent the satellite telecoms group into orbit. A frequent subject of speculation, the latest revival prompted a late spurt that saw the company close 15.2p better off at 437.2p – a new, two-month high.
Hopes that Inmarsat – which was demoted from the Footsie last year – might be snapped up have been around for a while now, and its boss, Andrew Sukawaty, helped stoke the rumour mill last September by admitting it was "natural" that private equity firm could be interested in investing.
However, its share price has been on the slide in recent months, with the group hit last month by its partner LightSquared's plans to build a high-speed wireless network across the United States facing difficulties with regulators amid claims it interferes with GPS systems.
Yesterday's reheated rumours – which suggested a potential price for Inmarsat of 700p a share – once again claimed a possible approach could come from private equity. US giant General Electric was another name in the frame, although City voices were rather sceptical over the idea while traders were treating the familiar talk with a large dose of salt.
It is not the first company that has been boosted by the return of bid rumours this week. Takeover speculation was revived around Shire on Monday, and the blue-chip drugs maker was still advancing yesterday. It gained another 50p to 2,179p, with Goldman Sachs' analysts helping by keeping the drugs maker on their "conviction buy" list.
The FTSE 100 edged down for the second straight day, finishing just 1.94 points lower at 5,890.26. Still, there was plenty of optimism doing the rounds that, despite the benchmark index having already added over 300 points this year alone, there was more upside ahead.
Pointing out that last month was the strongest January for more than a decade, Citigroup said "recent improvements to the macro backdrop" meant it is "more confident the current rally can be sustained".
Meanwhile, Morgan Stanley's Bruce Hamilton predicted "a further leg-up" for the markets and upgraded his recommendation on interdealer broker Tullet Prebon (up 7.9p to 322p) and fund manager Henderson (up 1.5p to 121p) to "overweight" as a result.
Not everyone was so optimistic, however. Northland Capital's Zeg Choudhry said he feels that "even if we assume economic conditions improve, we are very close to a correction of between five and 10 per cent before we resume a rally as markets are pricing a lot of good news".
The top-tier index was being weighed down by a warning from China that its industrial growth this quarter looks set to slow. With Burberry particularly susceptible to any bearish noises from one of its key markets, the luxury brand retreated 26p to 1,420p, while the heavyweight miners were also badly hit.
Xstrata and Glencore dipped 61.5p to 1,200p and 17.5p to 443.25p as leading shareholders voiced their opposition to the merger after an all-share agreement was announced. Talk was also doing the rounds in the Square Mile that, because of the valuation difference between the two in the deal, a number of investors were trying to short the latter but were unable to thanks to a lack of available stock.
Fears Capita may be about to lose out on yet another contract helped the outsourcer to finish in the red. The group has had a number of disappointments this year already, and Espirito Santo's David Brockton claimed that – despite being the favourite – the likelihood of being chosen by the army to take control of its recruitment activities is not as clear-cut as the market believes.
The analyst also reduced his rating on the group to "sell", warning that it "will continue to attract greater competition, with the business insufficiently diversified by geography to offset this pressure", and Capita promptly responded by slipping 1.5p to 633p.
Having climbed 50 per cent since December, Misys took a breather after Berenberg's Daud Khan said that it was now "richly valued" and downgraded his advice to "hold".
The software firm was left 8.9p worse off at 326.1p on the FTSE 250 as the analyst added that merger talks with rival Temenos should be concluded "within a short timeframe", although there has been persistent chatter suggesting a rival bid could soon emerge.
Down on AIM, Solo Oil was smacked back 23.33 per cent to 0.58p after the first drilling of the explorer's joint Tanzanian well with Aminex failed to strike oil or gas.
Going in the opposite direction was Totally. The media group was in rude health following confirmation that it had won a NHS contract worth nearly £1.6m, jumping up 172 per cent to 1.7p.

Tenure for teachers will take a year longer to earn, be tougher to achieve and easier to lose under a new law signed Monday by Gov. Chris Christie.
And for school districts and the state Department of Education, the hard work of implementing the law and the teacher evaluations will dominate the next school year.
Even as he signed the bipartisan bill, Christie called on the state Legislature to address other measures he supports that did not make it into the bill. Those include eliminating the last-in/first-out process of reducing jobs, and adding a pay scale not based solely on time served.
"We are taking a huge leap forward in providing a quality education and real opportunity to every student in New Jersey," Christie said. "But our work to develop laws that put students first is not done."
The TEACHNJ law, which stands for Teacher Effectiveness and Accountability for the Children of New Jersey, passed unanimously in the Legislature in June. It had the support of the state's largest teacher's union, which was active in its development and will now track its implementation.
"It's like we built the house, but now we have to put the foundation under it," said Steve Wollmer, spokesman for the New Jersey Education Association. "It's not the best way, but it's what we have."
Under the new law, tenure will be earned after four years, rather than three. New teachers will be mentored their first year. They will then have to earn at least two evaluation ratings of "effective" or "highly effective" in the next three years to obtain tenure.
Tenured teachers or principals who get either two "ineffective" ratings in a row, or a "partially effective" followed by "ineffective" ranking, will face tenure charges and dismissal. Contested cases will go to binding arbitration through the Department of Education rather than an administrative law judge, a measure designed to expedite the process and save money.
A legislative analysis of the potential costs estimated $52.4 million for teacher evaluations and $11.9 million for principal evaluations. The law also requires the state to pay for all costs, including tenure case arbitration.
Eleven school districts, including Ocean City in Cape May County, participated in a pilot evaluation process in 2011-12. Stafford Township in Ocean County will participate in a pilot principal evaluation program during the 2012-13 school year.
Every district must develop a plan for evaluations during the 2012-13 year, which must be approved by the state Department of Education. The state Board of Education last week introduced new regulations for the evaluation process.
Judith Destefano-Anen, superintendent in Stafford Township, said the district wanted to be part of the development process because research has shown that principals are crucial to a school's success.
"We want to be in the forefront so we can help mold the process rather than just get it delivered to us," she said. The kindergarten through sixth-grade district of about 2,400 students has five schools.
Ocean City Superintendent Kathleen Taylor said the district did a lot of valuable training during 2011-12, and she sees the value of using an established set of expectations for the process. The district used a framework developed by educator Charlotte Danielson, which includes an online tool that gives immediate feedback to the teacher and suggests professional development options where needed.
"I think it was helpful to have the rubric because everyone could see what was expected," Taylor said. She said a "highly effective" ranking is a very demanding standard.
"You don't live there," she said. "It's a place you go once in a while."
Teachers will get to see how they did on the pilot evaluations, and the district will compare the evaluations against the 2012 student test scores, though the state will not give districts their new "student growth percentile" measures until the fall, too late for major changes in the classroom.
"We really need them in the summer, so we could use them to plan changes needed in the fall," Taylor said.
Taylor said teachers were supportive and professional throughout the process, but there are still statewide challenges to full implementation, including the evaluation criteria, the time and staffing it takes to do longer and more numerous evaluations, and funding the process. Ocean City got almost $82,000 from the state to fund its pilot program, which did not cover all costs.
"We are committed," she said. "But we are still asking how do we manage it."
A major issue is the role and weight given to state tests, especially when not every subject and grade is tested. The law calls for evaluations to be based on "multiple measures" but state tests are included as one of those measures.
"How do you ensure fairness in the nontested areas, like art or social studies?" Taylor asked.

There is something wonderful about paper. It provides a way to capture and transmit thought, preserve knowledge, beautify a space, or entertain. But that's not all, paper can also be used as a medium to create spectacular pieces of art and sculpture.
A couple of months ago, while attending a conference in San Francisco, I stumbled on the Paper Tree, an origami shop in Japan Town. Though I didn't really intend to, I stayed for nearly an hour. I was inspired.
Though I don't aspire to be an origami artist, it is hard not to appreciate the craft and care it requires. An origami master is simultaneously balances aesthetics, planning, and architecture.
But origami isn't the only type of paper art. There are other techniques — paper case, papier-mache, paper collage, and cutting — which are beautiful in their own ways. In the months since visiting paper-tree, I've enjoyed looking at many examples of paper art and thought I might post a small gallery here.
The artists on display are:
- Allen and Patty Eckman, Paper Case Sculpture
- Helen Musselwhite, Paper Collage
- People Too, Paper Cutting
- Galen, Origami
- Peter Callesen, Paper Cutting
