Soupe de Poisson
Fish Soup
Delicious on a cold evening after a day on the trail, or a wonderful first course to a full traditional meal of several courses.
Fish Stock
5 salmon heads (frozen work great)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 large onion
2 carrots
2 stalks of celery- (best if leaves are on the stalk)
3 stalks of fennel – fronds trimmed for bouquet garni
7 cups water
bouquet garnish of 2 bay leaves, 3 sprigs thyme, 3 springs of parsley, several sprigs of fennel fronds-tied with twine
Chop onion, carrots, celery and fennel and sauté in oil until onions are translucent. Add fish heads, water and bouquet garni. Bring to a boil, boil for five minutes- skimming any foam from the top. Reduce heat to simmer. Simmer stock for 30 – 45 min. Fish heads should be falling apart. Cool stock enough to strain without burning yourself. Look for the fish eyes- they are the best eating in some cultures! Discard all but the broth.
2 tbsp olive oil (extra virgin)
2 tbsp butter
2 yellow onions- peeled and chopped
3 leeks-white part only- chopped
6 cloves of garlic- smashed with a knife and rough chopped
1 medium or 2 small fennel bulbs- cored, trimmed and chopped
2 carrots- chopped
2 stalks of celery- chopped
1 cup white wine
2 small or 1 large zucchini-sliced lengthwise into quarters and then chopped
14 oz. can of plum tomatoes
1/4 tsp. white pepper
Pinch saffron, crumbled
1 tsp. fresh thyme
1 bay leaf
salt and black pepper to taste
7 cups fish stock
3 pounds of halibut or de-boned salmon steaks (frozen work great)
¼ cup fresh basil- finely chopped
½ cup of grated parmesan or romano cheese
Heat oil and butter in large stock pot; add onions, leeks, garlic and sauté on medium until translucent (5 -7 minutes). Add fennel, carrots, celery and continue sautéing until carrots begin to soften (5 -7 minutes). Add white wine and simmer until wine reduces by half. Add can of tomatoes, zucchini, white pepper, saffron, thyme and bay leaf and simmer for 5 minutes more, stirring occasionally. Add fish stock, bring to a gentle boil and reduce heat to a simmer. Let simmer 25 to 30 minutes. Add salt and black pepper to taste.
Slice fish into 1-inch by 1-inch chunks- sear in a hot cast iron skilled just to lightly brown the flesh. Avoid over cooking or the fish will fall apart. Add fish to the stock pot and simmer for 15 minutes or until fish is cooked through.
Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with fresh basil and parmesan cheese

Lizzy FilanteModel Female Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, US
Mayhem # 2229725
About MeI am a relatively new model and am excited to meet and work with other models, photographers and MUA's within the field. I am professional and hard-worker, but am also highly creative and artistic, with a good eye and a keen appreciation for the arts. I value versatility and would love to experiment within various areas/types of modeling without being too sexually explicit. I hope to be successful through modeling and through the creation of a creative and aesthetically pleasing product.
Please feel free to contact me with any projects you have in mind. My schedule is flexible, and for the right project I will do my best to accommodate both of us. For bookings, please contact me via email through MM with a description of your proposed artistic vision. I am open to certain TF projects and of course regular paid work.

Stuck in the office, listening to endless monologues on mergers and acquisitions? Perhaps the answer to your corporate gloom is a 3D printed Kinematics tie.
Nervous System is a generative design studio that combines science, art and technology. They've designed this really kooky limited edition necktie, The Kinematics Tie, constructed with 204 individually 3D printed, interlocking triangular pieces.
The tie is fabricated layer-by-layer in nylon plastic using selective laser sintering (SLS). The hinges are built-in during the printing process, meaning each tie comes off the print bed fully assembled.
They're available in red, blue and black, and are 19" long, 2.4" wide. They also have a slightly different variation available here. Oh, and the ties also carry a hefty price tag of $120.
Why so expensive? These are limited edition products, made to order, and they're only available from January 5 to February 5 2016 as part of Nervous Labs release #2. In other words, you'd better move fast if you'd like one.
The trend for 3D printed neckwear is nothing new. For several years, 3D printed bow ties have been rolling off 3D printers and onto our collars. From classy, to 8-bit, to just plain weird, the maker community seems to have a strange fixation on ties.
But the cool thing about this particular item is not just how much fun it would be to wear, but the science behind it. Using 3D printing to explore intricate patterns and push boundaries has led Nervous System to several interesting new designs.
"Nervous Labs is our platform for releasing limited edition products that test out our latest ideas and experiments. Through these designs, we can introduce and evaluate new algorithms, materials, interfaces and fabrication techniques."
They have an entire section devoted to Kinematics — complex and foldable 3D printed wearable pieces. If you'd like to try some out on your printer at home, they also have a selection of designs that are free to download and print here.
What do you reckon? Is a 3D printed Kinematics tie suitable attire for a corporate raider? Let us know in the comments.

The River of the Blind Monk was born in the Lake of Sorrows, streaming southwest in the border of the Crane provinces until it reached the ocean Yakamo's Heart near Kyuden Doji. [1]
Name Edit
The river was named for an old monk who lived in a small shrine by the river bank. He would ferry anyone across who could answer a simple riddle. He had lived here at least two hundred years and if anyone dared ask him his age he smiled and threw them into the river. [2]
Kyuden no Kin Edit
The hills nearby were considered haunted, and the grounds where Kyuden no Kin once stood were never crossed by villagers. The palace was built by Asahina Mifune in a decleration of his love for Mirumoto Tanoshiko, but the couple were attacked by bandits in the palace and Tanoshiko was killed. Mifune killed the bandits and in his grief moved used dark magics to move the palace and everything inside into the void. It was said that some nights the tortured bandits can still be heard and strange lights flicker. [3]

Author | NULL | Monday, Jan 01,1900 9:28 AM
Prasar Bharati received only three
bids for the prime time slots on DD Metro. After the
pre-qualification bids were opened at Mandi House
yesterday, it became clear that those in the fray
included Sir Adhikari Brothers (SAB), Pritish Nandy
Communications and a little known company Prachar
Communication. The big names kept away again from
The bids will be opened today, but
it is highly unlikely that these will outstrip Rs 121
crore, the amount which Nine Broadcasting paid last
year for the 7 and 10 p.m. slots on DD Metro for a
one-year contract which comes to an end later this
year. This year, the contract will be signed for a
period of three years.
However, controversy seems to be
building around PNC's bid. According to DD sources,
PNC has some outstanding against it - grounds good
enough for the mandarins of Mandi House to raise
questions on the validity of PNC's bid.
Prasar Bharati board is yet to
take an independent view on the lone bid of Rs 50 lakh
received during the first round from Moving Pictures
for the 11 pm-12.30 am slot. Terms and conditions for
bid state there shall be a 10 per cent annual increase
in the bid amount quoted.
Dividing the time band into
one-hour slots, it had laid the floor price of Rs 22.5
crore, Rs 32.5 crore, Rs 42.5 crore and Rs 17.5 crore
for the four hourly slots between 7 p.m. and 11pm.
One of the concerns of the big
media companies was that original programming had to
be supplied to DD, coupled with other stringent
programming restrictions.

Kristen Stewart Chris Hemsworth
November 6, 2011 by staff
Kristen Stewart Chris Hemsworth, Movie tough guy Chris Hemsworth is nursing a black eye and busted nose after he was knocked out by Kristen Stewart on the set of Snow White and the Huntsman.
The Twilight actress plays the lead role in the upcoming fantasy film, alongside Hemsworth as The Huntsman.
Filming had to be postponed last month after Stewart tore a ligament in her hand during a fight scene with dwarves, but the star admits she isn't the only one suffering from an injury – she accidentally punched Thor hunk Hemsworth in the face.
During an appearance on US TV's The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on Thursday, she explained, "It made such a sound. It was in a scene. Girls, if you've ever wondered if it (punching) works, it works! It literally spun him right around! I was supposed to miss him…
"I basically knocked him right out of his close up (shot). I was (crouched) down and he was over me, 'huntsman-ing' out, (and I made) just really good contact. And I could hear the cameramen go, 'Woah!'."

Common issues plague the search space within the global search market. The most common of these issues occurs when a U.S.-based company expands globally. While this company may have an extreme advantage in the U.S. with both brand and search engine presence, these companies typically spend little or no time with their expansion plans overseas.
For example, adding a link to bring a user to a different database. Let's look at the UK. A cookie may be set up when a user clicks on the link, which will then bring the user to a localized session. This session may be optimal for their needs, but search engines won't accept the cookie and won't travel down such a path.
The only way a search engine can determine if a particular page or "site" should be listed within a specific country is seen by one of two options:
- The domain name or top-level domain. Most countries require address verification during the registration process in order to deliver a local domain.
- Location of the hosting environment. Each country has been assigned IP ranges. These pools of ranges are then passed down to hosting companies and providers of Internet access. Search engines are able to determine which data centers they belong to based on a check to see if they are within a given range.
Google has provided a service within the Google Webmaster Tools that helps Webmasters tag their site(s) to a specific country. This can be especially helpful if a Webmaster or company is using sub-domains that may or may not be hosted in a single country.
A few things to consider when making a decision to either keep your hosting in either a single country or multiple countries:
- Search engines like Google commonly have local data centers. They may not crawl a site completely from this location, but it's extremely likely that they'll calculate the user experience based on a local attempt. Thus, if you don't have a dedicated pipe to this market and you're competing in an aggressive space, you may want to consider other options — especially if you wish to compete with other local companies and or services, which may be based out of the specific market you're looking at. The operations department within your company may consider this to be a low priority. Thus, research and educate these teams on what the possible upside and or ramifications of their choices may be.
- Another extremely important note: if you move a domain from one IP to another, you'll likely reset "filters" that may throw your site out of the index for a period of time. Take care in any location change and calculate a loss in rankings with any major decision you might make.
In conclusion, it's important to keep an eye on the user experience and make sure that everyone can get to the pages in a reasonable amount of time. Anything over one second is too slow, so try to keep your latency below 500 milliseconds for optimal coverage within Google.

Ham, Cheese and Mayo Sandwich
Recipe by Perfect Pixie
I know this is so simple, but I just had to post it because my memory is very slack so I forget sometimes so need reminding.
Top Review by foodtvfan
Great sandwich. Turned this into a grilled ham and cheese sandwich. I made the sandwich with ham and cheese on the inside, spread the mayonnaise on the outsides of the bread slices, and grilled it. Restaurants do make grilled sandwiches with mayonnaise instead of butter, as the other reviewer said. Served it with potato chips and sweet pickles.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 4 slice white bread
- 4 slice cheese, thickly cut
- 2 slice ham
- 29.58 ml mayonnaise
Directions See How It's Made
- Spread mayonnaise evenly on two pieces of the bread.
- Place a piece of cheese on the bread.
- Place a slice of ham on top of the cheese.
- Place the other slice of bread on top.
- Cut in half.
- Enjoy.

Two Aussie actors and a Brit have joined the previously announced Leslie Odom, Jr., in ABC's "Poe", which has Alex Graves handling the directorial reins for its first episode.
Penned by Chris Hollier for Warner Bros. TV and Lin Pictures, "Poe" is a new crime procedural TV series that will follow Edgar Allan Poe, the world's very first detective, as he uses unconventional methods to investigate dark mysteries in 1840s Boston.
Per The Hollywood Reporter's Live Feed the Aussies are Tabrett Bethell (pictured below, left), whose previous TV credits include "Legend of the Seeker", as Sarah and Christopher Egan (pictured below, right), who appeared in "Kings", "Vanished", and "Everwood" and will play the part of Poe. They'll be accompanied by the UK's Kevin McNally (who coincidentally appears in The Raven with John Cusack as Poe), who portrays Kyle Kilpatrick.
Shooting begins March 14th in Toronto so look for more soon.

Colored Coconut Flakes
Recipe by Spicy Gal
There are endless uses for this decorative topping... It's fun to put around individual servings of fruit salad or ambrosia. At Easter, I made a cake in the shape of an egg, and used the colored coconut flakes as "Easter grass" around the cake. I've also made carrot cake in the shape of a carrot, and used green coconut flakes to make a decorative pretend carrot top. You can also make a "fluffy" or "furry" cake by putting the colored flakes on top of the cake's frosting. I'm sure you'll think of many more ways to use it!
Ingredients Nutrition
Directions See How It's Made
- Put the coconut in a ziploc bag.
- Dissolve a few drops of food coloring in the teaspoon of water, then pour this colored solution over the coconut in the bag.
- Seal the bag and shake until all coconut is uniformly colored.
- Tip: if you make primary colors first, you can use any leftover of that color to make a secondary color (e.g., if you have leftover yellow coconut, add red to make orange).

I was in need of a good attorney in 2012. I have been in business for 40 years and have worked with many lawyers on different projects. I know whether a firm is good or not. This firm was a very good experience. This firm treated us fairly for the cost and did a good job. John did his homework to prepare and asked questions about our case I did not think of. I would recommend his firm to my friends and business associates. It is difficult to find an attorney who takes on what he can handle and not what his checkbook needs. We don't know at this time whether we will win or lose, but it doesn't matter because he has done a top notch job.
Posted by anonymous
Very poor customer service and an incredible lack of organization. I was told repeatedly that I would receive return phone calls with information about my case and not once did I ever get a call. The city of Walker requires that you go through Valen Law Office for business related issues which is sad. Be warned, they will not take your case seriously and their information gathering skills are very poor. Calling the court administrator gave me information about my case that they didn't even know about even after they took a week to "figure out what was going on". If you want a lawyer that won't represent you then here is your guy otherwise go anywhere else.

The Six Hours War was a series of battles that took place on the date of Mar 14, 2011, resulting in a complete unconditional blockade by The International Union. All of the Grim Troopers and CPC contractors that took up arms during the war were permanently banned from all TIU simulators.
Several days earlier, Corpus Private Contractors, a Private Military Company based in the city of Sachiel were contracted to do an inspection of a Kratus Mepita energy facility, to which Kratus Mepita obliged. After discovering that the Kratus Mepita Energy facility was actually a front for creating weapons of mass destruction, Corpus Private Contractors was ordered to oversee the dismantling of the facility. Kratus Mepita officials then decided that dismantling the facility would mean billions of dollars in wasted L$, and ordered the CPC to leave.
When the CPC did not leave, and immediately requested that the facility be dismantled, Kratus Mepita forces became hostile and began to shoot at the CPC inspectors. All the CPC inspectors ended up being held in a forced labor camp within Kratus Mepita territories.
CPC saw that this would be a crucial loss of assets, and within several hours, evacuated the weapons inspectors to Sachiel.
Almost immediately afterwards, Kratus Mepita were almost ready to invade Sachiel, located in West Oasis, and the Grim Troopers saw this as an intrusion of Grim sovereignty, and immediately started an offensive along with CPC contractors that spearheaded the assault on the Kratus Mepita energy facilities.
Within a week, the Grim Troops & CPC had dismantled and destroyed the reactors of the Kratus Mepita facing huge resistance, but due to the poor training, outdated equipment & lack of tactical planning, the Kratus Mepita forces were decimated.
Kratus Mepita then immediately declared war on the Grim Troops of West Oasis, and began an offensive to retake their reactors. It was then that the Six Hours war had begun.
RAID Forces, allied to Kratus Mepita immediately signed on to the war, while the Kratus Imperatine Miche Cortes boasted about how he was allied to the Vanguard, which was only a bluff to get the Grim Commander, Outcast Core to surrender.
The Grim/CPC Armored divisions under Dezno Parx led the spearhead to assault the last remaining reactor at Forks, and completely decimated the enemy armor along with Ranga Surtees and Outcast Core who led the air divisions to successfully rout the Kratus Air divisions.
Mbgunsling Bardach, the later 2IC of Grim Troops assisted in the raid at several points with the use of a shotgun, rifle and tactical knife, assisting in the push.
William2 Alexandre, is remembered in this war for being the "Butcher of Forks" for holding down a machine gun post and holding his ground in order to secure the transport of the dismantled Forks energy core back to Sachiel. His PKM, which was used to kill hundreds of Kratus Mepita forces advancing his position, is now in a museum.
With the Grim Troops and CPC Operators in the area having successfully routed the Kratus Mepita forces, KM Forces immediately proceeded to retreat to R.A.I.D. and their desert simulator, "Revenge of Time". Arvene Price, the commander of the RAID forces was caught by surprise as the Grim/CPC forces eventually butchered the untrained RAID forces and what was left of the Kratus Mepita forces as Miche Cortes & Arvene Price retreated.
Immediately afterwards, the Grim Troops were instantly blockaded by the badly beaten Kratus and RAID forces, with almost all of the Grim having been marked for estate ban.
A book, written by William2 Alexandre, titled "Mess with the best, DIE LIKE THE REST!" grew to be a bestseller within West Oasis, Grossdeutchland, and surprisingly enough, Kratus Mepita. An excerpt from the book, is now in the Sachiel Veterans Museum.
"Those six hours lasted like six years. I never thought of all the people I fired at, it all meant nothing. The constant pounding of the PKM deafened my ears until there was nothing but a faint ringing sound. All those confused soldiers that were running in my direction, I shot down. I didn't think of myself, I didn't even think the battle would end, The only thing racing through my mind was 'They were sent here to murder me and my friends, and I won't let that happen"
Everyone that participated in the Six Hours War was awarded with a the "Six Hour War Veteran" medal, and many of the CPC contractors that participated in the Six Hours War eventually were ranked up to Executives in the company.
Kratus Mepita and RAID afterwards led a propaganda mass defamation campaign against Comrade Reynaud that turned out to be as ill-fated as their failed offensives against the Grim Troops and CPC Operators.

text: Always important when discussing dividends is the fact that, in general, dividend amounts are not always predictable and tend to follow the ups and downs of profitability at each company. In the case of General Electric Co, looking at the dividend history chart for GE below can help in judging whether the most recent dividend is likely to continue, and in turn whether it is a reasonable expectation to expect a 3.1% annualized dividend yield.Turning to the other side of the option chain, we highlight one call contract of particular interest for the November expiration, for shareholders of General Electric Co ( GE) looking to boost their income beyond the stock's 3.1% annualized dividend yield. Selling the covered call at the $24.50 strike and collecting the premium based on the 40 cents bid, annualizes to an additional 24.1% rate of return against the current stock price (this is what we at Stock Options Channel refer to as the YieldBoost), for a total of 27.2% annualized rate in the scenario where the stock is not called away. Any upside above $24.50 would be lost if the stock rises there and is called away, but GE shares would have to advance 1.3% from current levels for that to occur, meaning that in the scenario where the stock is called, the shareholder has earned a 2.9% return from this trading level, in addition to any dividends collected before the stock was called.

Cash flows into communities for fresh water
The Federal Government will spend more than $20 million on water storage in five Northern Territory Indigenous communities.
Large water tanks will be built at Wadeye, Nguiu and Angurugu, while water bores at Galiwinku and Umbakumba will be upgraded.
The Parliamentary Secretary for Water, Mike Kelly, says cleaner, more reliable water services will improve the health of Indigenous people.
"These projects relate to not only greater efficiencies and securities in terms of bore and storage capacity, but also in treatment and reverse osmosis and other aspects to make sure that the quality of the water that our Indigenous communities are being able to draw upon is the best possible."

Wolff's opened yesterday for regular service (I think they've been in soft opening for a week or so), and I met my daughter there for lunch. Basically a garage space, in the Albany warehouse district, next to the Miss Albany Diner. Order your food at the order-your-food counter, then your drink at the long bar. Good selection of German/Czech/Belgian beers on draft and in bottles, some wines. Menu had a selection of wursts, frankfurters, knackwurst, currywurst, weisswurst (knackwurst was good, served with sauerkraut and German potato salad. We sampled potato pancakes, spaetzle, brussels sprouts, and cucumber salad, spent about $30 for too much food. They call your name, and you take your food to communal long tables; good classic rock on the soundtrack. Recommend.

Smalling reveals Fergie factor
Chris Smalling has revealed Sir Alex Ferguson was the reason he opted for a move to Man Utd.
By James Riach
Last Updated: 06/03/10 12:39pm
Fulham defender Chris Smalling has revealed Sir Alex Ferguson was the reason he opted for a move to Manchester United.
The 20-year-old centre-back will switch to Old Trafford in the summer for more than £10million, having only made his debut for non-league Maidstone United in August 2008.
A whirlwind few months has seen him make his first Premier League start for Fulham, before Ferguson came knocking at the start of the year.
Arsenal were also in the frame to secure the signature of Smalling, but he revealed the personal touch of the United boss, who came to talk to him on the eve of the Carling Cup semi-final with Manchester City, persuaded him to move North.
"For him to come down the day before a big game was a huge compliment," he told The Guardian.
"That made it feel incredible. I went up the next day to the Manchester derby and got to meet some of the players afterwards.
"I went to see the training ground, did the medical, and everyone was very welcoming.
"When Sir Alex came and met me and I went to go up and visit, I had the gut feeling this was the place for me to continue my football education."
Before his move, though, Smalling still has some unfinished business at Craven Cottage this season.
Fulham are enjoying another strong campaign - they are currently well placed in the Premier League, set to face Juventus in the last 16 of the Europa League, and play Spurs in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup on Saturday.
The young defender added: "The chance of getting to Wembley, and playing against the likes of Juventus, shows how far we have come as a group."

There are many outstanding hiking trails within easy driving of Cornucopia at Oldfield. Many of our guests enjoy walking out our door on going for a 2.5 mile walk through some beautiful parts of Southbury without having to get in a car. Most of the walk is on rural roads (mostly unpaved). Along the way you will see a high-end horse stables, historic houses, wetlands and a historic marker.

The legal action is one of a flurry of suits being taken by phone makers and software firms as they fight over who owns the patents used in the world's hottest-selling portable devices.
Recent actions have seen Nokia sue Apple, which in turn has sued Taiwanese handset maker HTC.
However, Apple's case against Samsung could prove to be one of the biggest, as it is one of the fastest-growing smartphone makers and has emerged as Apple's strongest competitor in the booming tablet market with models in three sizes.
John Jackson, an analyst with CCS Insight, said Samsung is essentially Apple's only real tablet competitor.
Samsung's Galaxy products use Google's Android operating system, which directly competes with Apple's mobile software.
However, Apple's claims against Samsung focus on Galaxy's design features, such as the look of its screen icons. The lawsuit alleges Samsung violated Apple's patents and trademarks.
"This kind of blatant copying is wrong," Apple spokeswoman Kristin Huguet said in a statement.
Samsung said it would respond to the legal action "through appropriate legal measures to protect our intellectual property.
Its relationship with Apple is complicated as the company supplies Steve Jobs' computing giant with billions of dollars worth of semiconducters and screens.
Apple was Samsung's second biggest chip customer last year.

Today's guest post comes to us from Andrew. Andrew has been working in the finance industry for several years. He has helped many people with debt issues by advising debt consolidation solutions and short term loans.
Consolidating your finances is an option many people tend to overlook because they do not understand what it entails. Many credit providers and lenders offer many debt consolidation loans because there is a constantly increasing demand for such products. It is not surprising that now is the best time to get such loans.
Debt management is something you should master if you want to relieve your current financial stress. If you consolidate your debt, you could save a lot on interest costs, but you should also consider each loan's early repayment fees, if there are any. Take advantage of financial calculators available and compute how much you could save if you would repay all your loans simultaneously and instead repay a single loan in a month.
Effective debt management is assured by taking advantage of consolidation loans available. The single loan could replace the multiple debts and loans you may have. Thus, in a month, you would only need to pay one debt in a lender, instead of many debts in different lenders. It could also help save time and money. Consumers with consolidation loans rave about how they get more effective in avoiding possible loan defaults, which could be more troublesome.
Have you ever computed how much you are paying in interest rates of each of your loans? If you would consolidate all those rates, you would be surprised at how much you are shouldering in a month. By that alone, there is no doubt debt consolidation loans are very advantageous. The money you could save could be added to the repayment for a consolidated loan in a month. This is logically more practical.
Debt consolidation loans could give you the opportunity to pay lower monthly repayments. You have the option to take a longer term or repayment period, which comes with lower monthly dues. This is the best option if you are aiming to more effectively manage your overall finances. Thus, you need not worry about having to spend all your monthly income just to repay your debts. In the long run, you could be able to generate more savings, which you could use in investments for added revenues.
Are you one of those consumers who dread taking telephone calls every now and then from various creditors? It could ruin your day and affect not just your mood but also your productivity. It is time to get rid of that kind of pressure. Debt consolidation loans are there to help you eliminate that kind of problem.
Lastly, you could improve your credit record or maintain a good one if you would repay all your debts now and replace them with a single consolidation loan. This is possible because you could easily avoid incurring late payments or worse getting to a loan default. It is always best to come clean after emerging out of your debt obligations.
How about you all? Have you all ever used a debt consolidation loan? Do you think this could be something useful to your current financial situation?

By Jeff Zillgitt, USA TODAY
Gilbert Arenas' future with the Washington Wizards is unclear after NBA Commissioner David Stern suspended the guard without pay Wednesday for the season.
Stern also suspended Washington guard Javaris Crittenton for the season, stemming from a Dec. 21 incident when both players brought guns into the Wizards' arena. That is a violation of the collective bargaining agreement between the NBA and the players association.
"If there's any doubt of any of our players about it in the future, we will be dealing with this in an even more severe way," Stern said.
Arenas will not challenge the suspension; Crittenton had not decided.
Arenas, out most of the last two seasons with knee problems, is in the second of a six-year, $111 million deal.
The Wizards could try to void his contract, buy it out or trade him. "It's going to be a combination of many things to see which direction we go," club president Ernie Grunfeld said. "We are exploring all of our options."
WIZARDS: Won't rule out voiding Arenas' deal
TIMELINE: Chronicling Arenas saga
The incident bruised the NBA's and the Wizards' images. Late Washington owner Abe Pollin changed the team's nickname from Bullets in 1997 " to express his abhorrence of gun violence in our community," the team said in a statement.
The commissioner acted after both players pleaded guilty to gun possessions charges — a felony for Arenas, a misdemeanor for Crittenton. He met with both players this week, Crittenton on Tuesday and Arenas on Wednesday.
Stern acknowledged both players "expressed remorse" and he accepts "fully the sincerity of their expressions of regret," he said in a statement. Yet, "There is no justification for their conduct."
On NBA TV, Stern said Arenas' and Crittenton's remorse was a factor in the punishment.
"I would've done more if I didn't believe their contrition and their sincerity," he said.
In a statement, the Wizards said they "understand and fully support" the NBA's decision.
"Their poor judgment has also violated the trust of our fans and stands in contrast to everything Abe Pollin stood for throughout his life. … We hope that this negative situation can produce something positive by serving as a reminder that gun violence is a serious issue," the Wizards said. "We look forward to putting this unfortunate incident behind us and once again focusing our full attention on playing exciting basketball in front of our great fans at Verizon Center."
Arenas and Crittenton argued over a card game on a flight from Phoenix to the D.C. area on Dec. 19 and into Dec. 20. According to court records, both players threatened on the plane to shoot each other.
On Dec. 21, Arenas placed four guns on Crittenton's locker room chair with the words "Pick 1" written on a piece of paper on top of the guns, according to court records.
Crittenton, who said he feared for his safety, said he had his own weapon and took a handgun out of his backpack.
Stern also made clear the suspension had nothing to do with legal gun ownership and possession and was "about the possession of guns in the NBA workplace, which will not be tolerated."
Stern predicted he and players union executive director Billy Hunter will produce tougher punishment for NBA players violating collective-bargaining agreement gun regulations .
"This is not a subject on which we find ourselves in disagreement," Stern said. "And we've already begun those discussions. Because this is about the health and safety of our players and all players as well as our overall image of our players, and we're going to make, I would guess, an even stronger statement on this subject than is being made by this penalty being announced today."
Arenas, suspended indefinitely since Jan. 6, misses 50 games, Crittenton 38. Then-Indiana Pacer Ron Artest got 73 games for the brawl with Detroit Pistons fans in 2004. Ex-Golden State Warrior Latrell Sprewell sat 68 games for assaulting coach P.J. Carlesimo in 1997.
It will be costly to both players, especially Arenas. The ninth-year player was expected to make $16 million this season. He will forfeit roughly $9.8 million.
Crittenton, who has not played this season because of a left foot injury, was scheduled to make $1.47 million this season.
Before Arenas and Crittenton rejoin the league, they should rehabilitate their images, crisis management expert Gene Grabowski said.
Arenas "needs to take a page from Michael Vick's book and find himself someone who can serve as a senior mentor … much as Tony Dungy," Grabowski said of the NFL player's return from animal abuse charges.
"Arenas has to do those symbolic things, as well. And he has to show remorse."

Vaccinations "pointless/a con/water"?(8 Posts)
I have reserved a rescue cat today and am very, very excited. Two friends came round this evening and, of course, we talked cats. One friend has three and the other two. They were adamant that vaccinations are a complete con, that no cat ever dies from diseases they catch out, that they are probably just water etc etc. Both have dogs as well, which they do vaccinate. I have known these people for ages and both are animal-mad, so I was totally taken aback by their views.
I have had cats all my life and it never occurred to me not to vaccinate them. My parents always had them and used to cut corners in a lot of ways (untrained dogs etc) but all pets were vaccinated.
Have we been wasting our money ?
Cost was a factor they both mentioned, but I don't think they are that expensive. One friend also mentioned she will let her new cat have a litter before neutering, which also struck me as an odd decision.
All my cats are chipped, neutered and vaccinated. We had a rescue cat when I was younger who had feline leukaemia, she died at a very young age (5) and it was very upsetting. To me it's not worth risking for the price as its only once a year so not really that dear.
Good god what utter tosh. Are they creationists as well by any chance? Or maybe they believe that all MPs are really lizards - all that has as much basis in fact as their views on vaccinations.
And as for the one who wants to let her cat have a litter. Well not only is she stupid she has obviously no concept of animal welfare issues. Please try to persuade her to rethink. Basic arguments below:
If you let your cat have a litter, and manage to find homes for her kittens, you will use up homes that a litter of kittens sitting in a rescue centre could have had. They may end up being destroyed.
Many female cats in season become lost when they are chased by numerous male cats. They often become disorientated and cannot find their way home. Invariably they become pregnant and have kittens on the streets. This is how colonies of feral cats are formed. These cats struggle to survive, hungry, often sick or injured.
So many unneutered male cats carry the F.I.V. virus that female cats are at risk if they are bitten during mating. Feline sex can be very violent, particularly when several males are fighting over one female. F.I.V. and leukaemia virus can be passed to female cats under these circumstances.
Really all it should take to make anyone realise they are making a mistake in letting their cat have a litter would be a trip to a rescue centre. There are just too many cats and not enough homes. Thousands are destroyed every week simply because there are not enough homes to go round. Deliberately bringing more cats in to this situation is just unforgiveable.
Well I see cat flu about once a month and as it becomes a chronic condition very often owners end up spending hundreds to control it.
Panleucopaenia is on the rise again it is a disease similar to parvovirus in dogs which also on the rise again use to poor vaccination rates, it is almost always fatal.
Again we are seeing more feline leukaemia which whilst we can manage it for a while it is almost always fatal.
Cat vaccines are some of the most sophisticated vaccines out there using technology that is not even in the human market yet, they provide good protection against these awful diseases.
They don't love cats as much as they say they do. When we had cats they had their vaccinations and annual boosters/health checks. It is what responsible cat owners do. Besides, when we went away we used to put them in a cattery, so they needed to be up to date with their vaccinations anyway.
Yes, that's what I thought, but you know when two people you have known a while and respected suddenly come out with something unexpected...
thecatneuterer your post is absolutely shocking - I knew there was a problem, but those facts and stats are just sickening. Very glad I have got a rescue, though all my pets have been from rescue centres.
New cat is neutered and I will definitely be keeping her boosters up to date.
OP please try to persuade your friend with the new cat of the error of her ways. She may just not realise. People often think that if they can find homes for their kittens then that's not a problem, but the point is that they are taking up homes that could go to kittens/cats in rescues.
In an average week at the moment we are having to take into our care/having dumped on us around 8 mother cats plus and average of 30 kittens a week. And we are asked to take many more but we have to prioritise those in most danger. And we are only a small rescue. I've got five tiny kittens in my spare room at the moment as they were going to be thrown on the street and we literally had no space at all in the rescue to put them. And just on my small street three kittens were dumped in a garden about a month ago and two last week (and I only managed to catch one of them, which was living inside a car, a couple of days ago), and they are having to be fostered by neighbours as again, we have no room.
Do try to talk to her about it.
Personally I couldn't continue to be friends we anyone who deliberately allows their cat to breed, but I do realise I'm a bit extreme
I wish I could find where these dozens of kittens are. I've tried our local ones and they seem to have about 6 cats and no kittens! If only a little ginger tabby would come my way... assuming he didn't get beaten up by the black and white bandit!

text: Today the temperature dropped and we put aside our shorts and tees for jeans and jackets. There's a constant drizzle and lots of wind. It's the kind of weather that a few of my dear friends back in the States adore (Alex, Michael Y, Rory) and it makes me think about them and miss them. A day like today when we are wearing layers makes the blazing heat and humidity of summer seem like a hazy dream. On Monday I was complaining that all the pools in Macau were already closed for the season. It was 85F with 95% humidity and we were all seeking relief from the unexpected warmth. Today, I was complaining that the bus had the air conditioning blasting. We're all a bit congested. No surprise there. Welcome to Fall, finally.
