Just look at the stunning Melissa McCarthy in Va Bien's Lacey Full Figure Bustier in the February 2012 issue of W! And if there's one thing I love it's sexy lingerie! Was that TMI? Sorry, but when you wear something sexy like this underneath your outfit, that has to put a little sexy "pep-in-your-step" for the day!
Va Bien, French for "Fits Well," has been around since 1979 creating glamorous and sexy lingerie and shapewear. It's been worn by celebrities like Dita Von Teese, former first lady Laura Bush, Alicia Silverstone, Patti Labelle, and Jessica Lange. That's a wide range of shapes and sizes! I love the vintage and classic touches!
Do you want to try Va Bien as bad as I do? Or have you? What do you think?
Va Bien retails from $28.50 – $90.00 in numerous locations throughout the U.S., including online at BareNecessities.com, HerRoom.com and VaBienUSA.com.

Notebook: Gator volleyball hosts Florida State today
Published: Tuesday, September 17, 2013 at 7:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, September 16, 2013 at 11:35 p.m.
Fresh off the tournament title at the Active Ankle Challenge and a move up to No. 4 in the latest AVCA poll, the Florida volleyball team faces instate rival and No. 17 Florida State in a non-conference showdown in the O'Connell Center today at 6 p.m.
"We understand that at 6 o'clock, there are going to be fans who normally would not put a midweek volleyball match on their calendar, but when it says 'Florida State,' they will," coach Mary Wise said.
"What we're hoping is we get our volleyball die-hard fans and the die-hard Gator fans that just want to see Florida versus Florida State in anything."
The Seminoles swept the Gators, 3-0, in Tallahassee last year, their first win over UF since 1994 and one that ended a 21-match Florida winning streak in the series.
Florida (8-1), whose only loss was to No. 1 Penn State, is the defending SEC champion, while FSU (6-3), the reigning ACC champ, rallied from an 0-2 deficit to defeat No. 7 Michigan, 3-2, Saturday — the highest-ranked team the 'Noles have defeated in program history.
UF, which leads the all-time series 35-17, is 28-3 against FSU under Wise, including 16-0 at home.
Florida closes out its non-conference schedule this weekend at the Marquette Invitational in Milwaukee, Wisc. The Gators will take on the host Golden Eagles Friday at 8 p.m. and Wisconsin-Milwaukee Saturday at 7 p.m.
A 1-1 tie Sunday against South Florida in Tampa ended UF's four-match winning streak, but it didn't halt a five-match unbeaten streak the No. 9 Gators will carry into their SEC opener this Friday night at 7 against Alabama at Pressly Stadium.
Florida (6-1-1) opened the weekend Friday with its fourth straight shutout, 2-0, over previously undefeated Minnesota of the Big Ten.
"It was a good win for us to get a shutout against a team with that different a style and that kind of pressure," coach Becky Burleigh said. "It was good to see that before we start the conference.
"Against USF, they scored in the sixth minute, so obviously we had a little adversity at the beginning of that game and had to overcome that. But I really loved the way our team battled."
Florida is 14-3-1 in SEC openers, including an 8-0-1 mark at home.
The Alabama match is the only one of the weekend for UF. The Tide, which beat UF 1-0 in Tuscaloosa last year, is off to just a 2-5 start, but Burleigh is leery.
"This Alabama team is not fooling us," she said. "Their record may not look great, but it's the same team as last year, which was a very good team."
Swimming and Diving
The UF men's and women's swimming and diving teams will hit the water for the first time at the fourth annual Pinch A Penny All Florida Invitational in the O'Connell Center Sept. 27.
Both squads are coming off sixth-place finishes at the 2013 NCAA Championships, extending their respective program streaks of top-10 national finishes to 14 for the men and 13 for the women under coach Gregg Troy.
In addition, the UF men won the 2013 SEC title, the Gators' first in 20 years while ending an impressive 16-year championship run by Auburn.
The Florida men return 11 All-Americans led by seniors Marcin Cieslak and Sebastien Rousseau while the women return nine paced by senior Elizabeth Beisel.
"We had a tremendous summer and good improvement," coach Gregg Troy said. "The majority of the team was on top of the things they were supposed to be on and competed real well internationally, which is always good."
"We've also got a freshman class of six women and six men who we feel like can contribute right away."

For a while now, we've heard about Walt Disney Studios's plans to turn Phineas and Ferb into a feature film. Although production has not yet started on the film, we can tell that Disney is now serious about it as they've already got a place for it on their schedule.
The Hollywood Reporter announced that the studio had set their release schedule for 2013. The already-tumultuous adaptation of The Lone Ranger is set for a May release. Thor 2, a sequel to the "Mighty" Marvel Comics hero's film, was set for a summer release, but for whatever reason (perhaps because it would be odd for a film about two boys on summer vacation to be released in November?), it has been pushed back to the fall. Phineas and Ferb takes the hammer-swinging hero's place, and is set to be released to theaters on July 26, 2013.
With a little bit under two years to go until this date, anything can happen. But we've gotten to the point where the film has evolved from an idea to a date on a calendar. What's next is anybody's guess, but I'll keep you posted.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 23/8/2013 (1456 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Winnipeg police Chief Devon Clunis and his fellow Canadian chiefs of police came through looking progressive and persuasive at their annual conference this week in Winnipeg, what with their calls for issuing tickets for simple pot possession and urging better care for the mentally ill.
But the police chiefs missed an opportunity to be even more out front on another issue they actually control.
The theme of the conference was supposed to be communications.
Specifically, social-media trends and their use by police in their private lives as investigative tools. There was no mention of the more fundamental issue of how police communicate with the news media and hence the public -- that should have been on the agenda.
Police officers are part of organizations that guard secrets and journalists are about uncovering secrets that publicly responsible organizations such as police services would rather you not know about.
Which brings me to my colleague, Mike McIntryre, and his coverage of the deaths last month of Lisa Gibson and her two young children. On July 24 at 12:54 p.m. -- about five hours after what was reportedly a 911 call from the Gibsons' Westwood home -- a Winnipeg police public information officer emailed a news release that reported "emergency personnel were dispatched to a check the well-being incident" at the Gibson home at 8 a.m.
Then the news release said this: "Responding personnel located two young children within the residence. Both were transported to the hospital in critical condition and have since succumbed to their injuries... "
Three days later, police recovered the body of the missing mother from the Red River.
In retrospect, what's most revealing about the news release are these words:
"Responding personnel located two young children within the residence."
During the days that followed, some news reports would interpret "responding personnel" to mean the male and female officers who first responded to the call were the ones who found two-year-old Anna and three-month-old Nicholas in the bathtub.
But just over two weeks later, McIntyre would write a story that suggested police had misled the media and the public about who found the children in the bathtub.
Police sources had told McIntyre what the public affairs unit hadn't disclosed. It was the grandmother who found the children in the bathtub, and, according to McIntyre, "as much as 30 minutes after police first arrived."
"And that," McIntyre wrote, "has led to yet another in a long line of 'what-if' questions being asked in this tragic case: What if they had been found sooner? Could they have been saved?"
One can see why the police might be less than clear about what happened that morning.
McIntyre contacted the police information unit before the story asking for comment and for a timeline of when the 911 call was placed, when police arrived at the home, what time the children were discovered and when paramedics arrived. Police declined to comment. Other than to explain why they wouldn't. A public information officer alluded to the possibility an inquest could be called.
Chief Clunis repeated the police line during a later phone interview. When I challenged the chief on that, he characterized himself as open and transparent and vowed to speak with me when the time was appropriate.
Clunis may have other reasons for not being open and transparent right now, but he and his organization appear to be hiding behind a legal wall of their own. A law professor with extensive background in government told me there is no legal reason why police couldn't share the timeline information and what the responding officers' role was at the scene.
But what if McIntyre hadn't written the story, and what if there was no inquest? I asked Chief Clunis whether he would have spoken with me about his officers' involvement in the discovery of the children if McIntyre hadn't written about it.
Clunis didn't answer directly.
The Winnipeg police chief may want to see himself as open and transparent, but the organization he is responsible for leading wasn't in the Gibson case. As for how Chief Clunis handled the Gibson case, I came across some expert advice he might want to remember.
Tony Fratto, who served as deputy press secretary under George W. Bush, said this month during a National Press Club debate on the growing conflict between reporters who want to know the truth and so-called public information officers who don't want them to know: "Everyone will tell you, every professional will tell you, put out any bad news on your own terms," Fratto said. "Get it out. Push it out. Tell your story."
Then, in a statement that suggests why Devon Clunis didn't "get it out," Fratto said this: "But the courage to do that is really... lacking."

KATY, Texas - Thieves are targeting vehicles at more than one Houston-area gun shop and investigators say they've got their eyes open for one thing in particular.
When you pull up to the Tactical Firearms Store and Gun Range near Katy on South Mason Road, chances are you have a gun or your looking for one. In one case, a group of thieves went there here to steal weapons, and store surveillance cameras captured it all.
Jeremy Alcede spent more than 15 years in law enforcement and now owns the store. He said looking at the video, he believes these guys are not amateurs.
In the video, you can see a white SUV pull into the parking lot to serve as a look out.
Then, a silver Nissan with two more suspects inside can be seen pulling into the parking lot.
One man jumps out and cases several cars, eventually finding prime targets with valuables visible inside the cars.
The suspect quickly smashes the window and takes several guns the victim bought at the store.
The man can be seen on the video doing the same at a second car. While that man is stealing, the lookout goes inside to distract the employees and is caught on camera in the process.
Investigators said, minutes later, the men drove away. Right before turning on to a busy street, the vehicles stop. According to investigators, one man gets out and passes off the stolen items to a guy in the other SUV.
Alcede said the owner of AJC gun shop in Katy told him the cars of several of their customers were targeted a week earlier.
If you have any information, call the Harris County Sheriff's Office.

Herne Hill Harriers' Saskia Millard is hoping to follow in the illustrious footsteps of Dame Kelly Holmes and become an Olympic legend.
The 12-year-old from Balham was part of the terrific Harriers trio – alongside Katy Ann McDonald and Alex Brown – which won the Saucony National cross-country relays title last weekend, the first time the club has won the competition in its 123-year history.
Saskia, who goes to Alleyn's School in Dulwich, is winning races left, right and centre and it is a mentality she hopes to continue.
"I would love to become an Olympic athlete and run in the 2020 Olympics," she said.
"I want to follow what Kelly Holmes did and win an Olympic medal. I love her, she is so determined. She went to three Olympics and never gave up. She's an amazing person."
Saskia, pictured right, who somehow finds the time to do her schoolwork while also playing netball, hockey, water polo and football, as well as going swimming, was not aware she and her team-mates had become the Harriers' first winners of the cross-country title until they received their medals.
"I was so excited when I finished, knowing we had won, that I didn't know anything about the record – I did not have time to think," she said.
"None of us realised what we'd done until after we got our medals.
"You can never be too sure at these kind of events until afterwards.
"It was not until then that we realised we had made such a big achievement."
She added: "It makes me feel very proud and it is good to be part of a team that has done so well.
"It has given us more confidence for the coming events and has given us more medal hopes for our team."
Saskia was spotted by the Harriers coaches when, aged nine, she took part in the mini marathon trials for Lambeth and Wandsworth, which she won.
"I love training, it is such a nice group and everyone is so supportive, it's really enjoyable. I love the atmosphere of the races and my coach, James McDonald, is really nice," she said.
"It is more like fun than hard work."
Meanwhile, Herne Hill Harriers U13 boys proved too strong for the competition once again at the Surrey League cross-country meeting at Richmond Park, writes Steve Bosley.
The team was led by another fine run by 10-year-old Oscar Millard, younger brother of Saskia, who was second in the U13 race and an impressive ninth overall in the young athletes race, which also included the U15 and U17 boys.
Oscar was supported by a good run from Kingsley Ezeh, fourth, and Abdul Hakim.
The Millard siblings could be forgiven for indulging in rivalry and taunts, but this is not the case.
Saskia said: "We used to be rivals, but we're always going to be different and unlikely to race against each other – so now we're training partners and we run together."
Herne Hill's older boys were second in the combined team event for U15s and U17s, with Paul Burgess winning the U15 boys' race.
The four lads who scored in this team were Paul, who was fourth overall behind three U17s, Nick Clanchy, a U17 who was fifth overall, Tom Singholden, who was 10th in the combined race but third U15 boy, and Callum Barker, who was 12th, but fourth U15.
The Herne Hill men took second place in defence of their Surrey League cross country title.

In the recent decision United States v Windsor (PDF), the United States Supreme Court held that Section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act was unconstitutional. The court ruled that the federal government could not deny benefits to same-sex couples who were legally married in one of the states that allow such marriages.
Questions still remain for states such as Missouri where same-sex marriages are prohibited, because some federal benefits are based on where a marriage was performed and some on where the couple resides.
A short history of marriage legislation in Missouri can be found at the website of the St. Louis Recorder of Deeds and Vital Records Registrar.

The Best New Restaurants 2013
The Aerosmith guitar legend may have a thick Boston accent but his playing is rooted in Southern blues. This may account for his hot sauce line "Boneyard Brew." It has a nice heat and is thick and rich with garlic and onions. Not something you'd want to mix into your New England clam chowder but it's great on burgers and grilled chicken and also as a base for a terrific shrimp cocktail sauce. Perry also has a sweet and spicy sauce, "Mango Peach Tango," great for pork and turkey dishes.
The legendary singer has her own line of hot sauce, BBQ sauce and marinades, "Patti LaBelle's Lady Marmalade" featuring four hot sauces: "Cilantro Lime," "Smoked Habenero," "Super Woman", and "Hot Flash." As the singer herself told Esquire, "Hot flavors always fascinated me – I love the hot stuff!" Made from her own recipe using all-natural ingredients, (and low-sodium as well), her sauces are less about heat and all about flavor. "Super Woman" and "Hot Flash" have a nice kick without burning, but the delicious "Smoked Habenero" is the standout, excellent on meats and especially wings.

Topic: Intro
I am an idiot. I have been looking for a CC support group web-site for 4.5 years but never thought to look under "www.cholangiocarcinoma.org". Needless to say, it has been interesting to read the many posts that share the same issues as my wife, Kathleen.
Kathleen is 44 years old and was diagnosed in July 2002. She has had two surgeries, several chemo regimens and now is scheduled for Therasphere treatment in two weeks. Therasphere was approved for Kathleen because she was recently diagnosed with mixed hepatocellular (HCC) and CC cancer. We are in Mpls so we have easy access to Mayo Clinic but Kathleen's primary cancer physician is a great guy from Mpls - he was an actor and comedian in NYC but changed careers after his dad died of cancer.
Kathleen has been a success story in many ways but she has also shared many of the difficulties and challenges all of you have. We have a web-site at CarePages.com and I will try to figure out how to link it with this blog section.
Good luck to everyone fighting this disease.

New interim executive director named for state brand committee

One of the Lincoln County courts frequent defendants was sentenced Monday to up to five years in the penitentiary.
Defense attorney Leonard Vhynalek asked for probation, but the request received an energetic objection from the prosecutor.
Lincoln County District Judge Richard Birch agreed with prosecutors. He said Clark has an extensive record including a previous burglary conviction, for which you were sentenced to 1½ - 3 years.
Your record includes other thefts, and drug crimes, Birch said. You committed this crime only shortly after you were released from the other sentence.
Clark was already in jail for an October burglary when he was charged with theft in connection with a wallet that was stolen in December.
Police Information Officer Rodney Brown said the 17-year-old wallet owner later learned his debit card had been used four times to buy fuel and pay for phone calls.
A charge of unauthorized use of a financial device was added to Clarks record.
Bradley has exhibited a dont care attitude in court and jail. At a hearing in county court, Judge Michael Piccolo asked him if he understood his rights, to which Clark quipped, I should, as often as Ive been here.
Clark seemed unsurprised at his sentence Monday, showing no emotion.
The latest burglary charge came from thefts of metals from the Regional Recycling Center in October. A few days after the alleged burglary was reported, McKain was filmed trying to sell some of the missing goods to the North Platte Metals recycling center. Bradley pled guilty to that on March 19.
In that burglary his girlfriend Laura McKain is suspected of helping him. McKain was allegedly driving the car when Clark stole the metals. Her case is pending.
Clark received credit for 75 days served in the county jail.
Philip Tyan, 44, of North Platte, was sentenced Monday to up to four years in prison for theft.
Deputy Lincoln County Attorney Jennifer Wellan told the court that Tyan has an extensive history of crimes, his list of priors goes back 20 years and he wasnt out of jail long when he committed this crime.
Defense attorney Patrick Hays said, Yes he does have an extensive record, but now he has serious health problems and is scheduled for surgery soon.
Hays asked for the minimum sentence.
Nevetheless, Lincoln County District Judge Donald Rowlands handed down a sentence of 1½-4 years.
Because of your long prior record and that you did not cooperate with probation on another conviction, I must sentence you to the Department of Corrections, Rowlands said.
Tyans list of Lincoln County charges includes illegal alcohol and drug use as well as thefts. He has been charged 10 times for driving under suspension.
He claims Ovid, Colo. as his home but frequently ends up in the Lincoln County Jail.
He was arrested on Thanksgiving for driving under suspension, and also charged with receiving stolen property -- a trailer that was stolen from a North Platte business and parked on another mans property in Hershey.
Jamey Koch, 41, of North Platte, was sentenced to 1½-3 years in the pen for possession of methamphetamine and attempted burglary.
He received credit for 63 days in the county jail.
During sentencing, Lincoln County District Judge Donald Rowlands noted that Kochs history goes back 20 years and includes a prison term.
Koch pled guilty March 25 to possession of meth and an amended charge of attempted burglary.
Koch was arrested in the early hours March 4 when police found him inside Gracie Mays Restaurant on East Philip. The burglar alarm was still sounding when police arrived, and the front glass door was broken, Police Information Officer Rodney Brown said.
Koch was arrested without resistance. Brown said he was carrying meth and was thought to be under the influence of the drug at the time.

Police had said they were looking for two Detroit men in connection with the case, 25-year-old Abrandon Lewis and 35-year-old Andre Michael Todd-Douglas. Police said one of the men turned himself in Wednesday morning. But they did not say if the person in custody was Lewis or Todd-Douglas.

In 1841, he married Ann Eliza Chamberlain (1823-1900), of Corryton, Knox Co., TN, whom he had apparently met a few years earlier when she and her sister came to Tazewell to visit their great aunt, Margaret (Chamberlain) Graham. Ann Eliza was the daughter of Ninian Chamberlain (1792-1877) and Margaret Watkins (1790-1863). William and Ann Eliza were the parents of five children: Lucinda B.; Ninian C.; James J.; Sarah Ellen (Sally); and Mary E. William served in the Mexican War. He is said to have died as the result of an artillery accident during the Civil War. Some sources, including DAR records, give his middle name as "Burton."

Weather, other factors trigger blood emergency
Published: Thursday, January 17, 2013 at 9:34 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, January 17, 2013 at 9:34 p.m.
The cold front moving through the Southeast Thursday that is predicted to bring snow to large portions of Alabama and Georgia is also expected to create a blood shortage across the region.
Galen Unold, director of donor recruitment and retention with LifeSouth Community Blood Centers, says the cold front and snow will mean blood drives in many affected communities could be canceled.
"This is coming at a time when supplies were already low because of reduced donations during the winter holidays," Unold said. "Meanwhile, blood usage at many of our hospitals is far above normal, making the shortage even more serious."
Unold said all blood types are needed, but blood types AB-positive and negative, and O-negative are in shortest supply.
Unold said all the LifeSouth donor centers expect to be open on Friday, and where possible the bloodmobiles will be available for donors. Donors must be 17 or older, or 16 with parental permission, weigh a minimum of 110 pounds and be in good health. A photo ID is also required.
For information about donating, call LifeSouth toll-free at 888-795-2707 or go to www.lifesouth.org.

Had a sore throat, and ate a whole pack in around 3 hours. Ended up at the bathroom for quite some time. Decided to test again if this would happen when I was feeling perfectly fine, and so it did. The taste is good, and they did help my sore throat, but the rest of my body seems to set a limit around 3 candies pr day. Note, I am not used to corn syrup, and suspect that is what set things off.

why not just honey? Why? I grew up with these drops from a local herbalist my mom would visit. I never checked labels when I was that young and this time around at 38 yrs old I was sorely disappointed to see both Sugar and Corn Syrup as ingredients. I'm sensitive to sugar (acne) so I won't be buying them again. Though they do taste heavenly!
Honees, Honey Filled Drops.

Great idea to put in bag for outside use. Each drop is in individual pack. But they stick to teeth. I couldn't test it properly, my ants did it for me :(

* McIlroy toils to 75, Woods cards 72
* Kaymer opens up with one-under-par 71 (Adds quotes)
By Tony Jimenez
ABU DHABI, Jan 17 (Reuters) - Triple former winner Martin Kaymer eclipsed playing partners Rory McIlroy and former world number one Tiger Woods in their marquee three-ball in the first round of the $2.7 million Abu Dhabi Championship on Thursday.
German Kaymer, who lifted the spectacular Falcon Trophy in 2008, 2010 and 2011, carded a one-under 71 in difficult winds gusting up to 20mph (30kph) while an out-of-sorts McIlroy ballooned to a 75 and Woods had to settle for a 72.
All three trailed early clubhouse leader Jamie Donaldson of Britain who plotted his way to a five-under 67.
McIlroy, Woods and Kaymer started on the 10th hole at 0740 local time and were introduced to an excited gallery by European Tour chief executive George O'Grady.
The trio all found sand on their par-five first hole, McIlroy somehow managing to putt his way into a greenside bunker, but each saved par.
The world number one's game began to unravel when he took a double-bogey five at the 15th. He hit back with a birdie at the long second before producing an errant tee shot at the third and slumping to his second double-bogey in seven holes.
Northern Irishman McIlroy looked on as Woods made a strong move by birdying the 15th, 17th and 18th but the world number two dropped back into the pack with successive bogeys at the first and second.
A birdie at the eighth cheered up the 14-times major winner before he made a mess of the ninth and final hole, three-putting from 30 feet.
Woods, however, was not displeased with his performance.
"I'm right there," the 37-year-old American told reporters. "If I had two-putted the last I'd have been 12th or 13th, something like that.
"There are not a lot of guys going low out there. You seem like you're banking up against the wind pretty much all day.
"It's tough - these fairways are tiny to begin with and there were a lot of crosswinds today," added Woods. "I don't think it's supposed to blow as hard tomorrow, at least that's the forecast.
"The rough is deep enough where it's tough to get to the green. It's imperative to get the ball in the fairway."
Woods completely duffed his drive at the first hole, his 10th, when he struck the ground behind the tee peg and the ball only squirted out 120 yards.
"My game plan was to hit a three-iron or five-wood on that hole and then I changed my mind," he said.
"I should have just backed off and followed my game plan. I had a strategy for the day and clubs I was going to use and what spot I was going to hit it too. I didn't do that there, paid the price and made bogey."
McIlroy, who rubber-stamped a massive sponsorship deal in Abu Dhabi on Monday and is using his new Nike clubs in competition for the first time this week, lamented his driving and putting.
"I feel like I was a little bit rusty having not played competitive golf for eight weeks," said the 23-year-old. "I actually hit my irons pretty well but I just didn't hole any putts.
"I didn't drive it well and didn't putt well so I'll have to work on that. I'm disappointed because I could have shot a better score."
McIlroy refused to put his lacklustre display down to the new equipment.
"Of course, it takes time to get used to ... it's a little bit of an experimental period," said the twice major winner. "I guess when you're going out with new stuff you're always going to be a little anxious.
"I just felt like I wasn't swinging that well. For the most part I was very happy with everything."
Kaymer, also a former world number one, recorded his third bogey of the day at the last but his mistakes were offset by birdies at the 11th, 15th, 16th and fifth.
"My putting was very good," the German said. "I made a few good saves and then a couple of really nice long birdie putts went in.
"I hit only three fairways today so I if I start to hit them later in the week I think I can go lower." (Editing by Ed Osmond)

SWINDON boss Paolo Di Canio still has room in his budget for one more signing after a busy day of transfer business at the County Ground.
The Italian unveiled Charlton midfielder Danny Hollands and Norwich striker Chris Martin as the newest members of his squad yesterday, following a frustrating spell where the club's transfer embargo prevented him from adding to his injury-hit squad.
But there was also a departure as Paul Benson made a temporary switch to Portsmouth, and the striker's move as well as Luke Rooney's loan to Rotherham last week has given the Town boss money to play with.
"For this we decided in this way because with Benson and Rooney out, even if they pay a bit and not everything, it can help us to have space to bring in another player," said Di Canio.
"At the moment I know what position I want, but now it is more difficult because the few that were proposed to me in the last few days are players that don't give me extra quality, and I prefer to play with my players because they know what I want.
"They believe fully in my regime and I don't need to bring in players just to bring them in.
"I am waiting, if there is an opportunity to bring in a player in the area I need like Hollands or Martin, with the quality.
"Otherwise I will stay with my players."
In an ideal world Di Canio would have liked to have kept hold of Benson, but the Italian needed to free up money to strengthen other areas of the side.
"In the past I wanted to keep everyone because all of them were different, but we couldn't for the reason I have said before," he said.
"I decided for him although it is obvious we are going to miss a man who challenges more in the air, but the way we play now we are going to play more directly and in a manner you can see all through the middle and in the channel, so if I had to sacrifice one player, Paul was one.
"I received two requests for him and I didn't even say one to him because in my opinion it wasn't fair. League Two, a long way from Swindon.
"But Portsmouth is League One and a big club and he can remain with his family and go up and down and play football with a chance to maybe win another contract.
"This is why I sacrificed one, otherwise I would keep Paul, but we can't at the moment."

jkresh - Sunday, June 02, 2013 - linkthat could work depending on your usage, if you are always running at load (folding at home or something along those lines) it wouldnt help because eventually all the water would get warm (and without a radiator it would continue to heat up), but if you only run for relatively short periods of time (lets say an hour or two for gaming) then that might work. The most impressive system I saw, was someone ran a a server farm in his basement, with water running outside to copper pipes which ran deep under his yard, so he basically used geothermal cooling for his computers, kind of a crazy setup, but using the Earth as your heatsink has its advantages. Reply
Adamantine - Friday, May 31, 2013 - linkYou didn't setup the radiator like people who do full PC liquid cooling setups do, which is going to perform better than how you did it. Fans need to be setup as intakes on the radiator, not exhaust. It almost guarantees the radiator will get the coolest air possible which isn't possible when setup as exhaust. Reply

vishwa108 - Saturday, June 01, 2013 - linkWhilst being prejudical is an unwelcome trait, being prejudicial on behalf of Truth is an asset all men strive for. Truth be told, "Thermaltake" might sound both Tojo-ish and English, but as all know, this beastie is but a mere pretender to "watercooling", mediocrity being its forte when it comes to watercooling. Not when "Asetek" is supporting one's watercooled butt, that is. After some Bavarian ariy-fairyness having levelled Ten on the religiosity crapola. That is what you'll get for mixing Taiwanese panda greeny-loony cutieness with sophisticated Western gender-bending taste.
Even so, DNA being thicker than water, the same nonsense prevailed. LOUD and LOUDER. What is "entry-level" watercooling if it is not about lowering loudness? What? Eets about pandering to fairies and their pirouettes? This has to be some Choseness Frivolity & Nonsense masquerading as Sense & Sensibility. It looks like fashion has finally caught up with PC, Performance and Overclocking. Either that or the fairies have accidentally beached themselves on the PC Cloud Cuckooland.

I want to have a simple page and give the user a couple of simple choices.
I then make 3 buttons.<do this><do that><do some>
But I know my customer."But the user get confused. You need to add lots of text that should explain the user what to do, what to expect, what not to do, and whats important to do, and the...."
So I usually have to make ugly pages with lots of text, red text, warnings, popups. And warnings about what to do and not to do on next page... <do not close this page>
I was thinking of suggesting something cleaner.
what if I make large buttons with text inside them?
background: #D3D3D3;
padding: 0;
color: #000;
border: 2px solid;
border-top-color: #8799FF;
border-left-color: #8799FF;
border-right-color: #0026FF;
border-bottom-color: #0026FF;

Do This

If you want to do this and some stuff then this is the place for you.
Ugly as h*** but you get the point??
What about doing some rounded corners?? That would make the large button look more buttonish?Not sure if css can help me there.
I tried and modified this:http://www.roundedcornr.com/rc5.php
But the code is ugly, and it doesn't work properly with IE and there is limits with the size. And I'm not found of maintaining images, especially not this kind of type.The project is probably going to be handed over to someone who are not skilled at html/css, and I want something simple and easy to maintain.
Do you have some ideas please?
Without a more specific description of the project, it's hard for me to determine the necessity of these "explanations." Though, it sounds as if you disagree with the client but feel forced to abide.
This brings me to my first point - control your client or find a new one. I have worked with numerous idealistic clients - often with great compensation - but trust me when I tell you it is not worth it. Along with that great compensation, I've earned myself some gray hair and a level of burnout that someone 20-years-old should not experience. I recommend that you explain to the client your professional opinions, and if they expect you to work outside of your own limitations - then they need someone else.
Now, as for your little problem, and what exactly your professional opinions should be - I think you need to step outside of the box a little bit.
You could use JavaScript tool tips with a little (?) next to each "confusing" link that explains it to the user upon hover of the (?). You could simply use the title attribute on your links to specify the link's action. You could also use jQuery/JavaScript show/hide containers for your instructional information, allowing your page to not be bloated with instruction but still allowing confused users to find instruction. These are just a few simple examples of how you could handle this situation from a developmental standpoint.
EDIT: Oh, and if you plan to use a JavaScript solution, be sure to consider graceful degradation.
EDIT 2: In hindsight, I think this belongs in a different forum as it's more of a layout concept / page design issue than it is a CSS issue.
Apart from what Alex has just commented on I should also point out that you can't wrap div elements inside an anchor so your code inside the anchor would need to be inline elements like spans instead.
If you want round corner type buttons then you have little choice but to add the extra elements required unless you get the corners added with some JS (see nifty corners - which doesn't use images)
You can do it manually without using images but the code becomes bloated and pretty ugly. This sounds like the type of thing you were asking.

Cambridge man sentenced in 'road rage' incident violates probation
by Rachel Kytonen
Isanti County News
A 74-year-old Cambridge man sentenced to one year in jail and 20 years supervised probation in June 2014 for a road rage incident has been found guilty of violating his probation.
Joseph Duane Kadlec was found guilty in March 2014 of felony first-degree assault, causing great bodily harm; felony second-degree assault with a dangerous weapon, causing substantial bodily harm; and felony discharge of a dangerous weapon in a municipality relating to a September 2012 road rage incident that escalated into a shooting in the Isanti Police Department parking lot.
According to the criminal complaint for the assault, witnesses saw Kyle William Ronning, of Columbia Heights, and another motorcyclist trying to pass Kadlec heading southbound on Highway 65 between Cambridge and Isanti. When the motorcyclists tried to pass, witnesses said Kadlec swerved his vehicle toward them.
Kadlec then turned onto County Road 5 and headed west toward the Isanti Police Department with the two motorcyclists following. An incident ensued, and as officers walked out of the police department, they heard a gunshot and saw Ronning holding his mouth. The officers observed a 9 mm handgun lying on the driver's seat of Kadlec's car and took possession of it.
When officers looked closer at Ronning, they observed a large quantity of blood, shattered teeth, a lot of damaged tissue and determined he had been shot in the face. It appeared there was a bullet protruding from the lower portion of the right ear, which appeared to be where the bullet was lodged.
At his sentencing in June 2014, Kadlec was ordered by Judge James Dehn to not use or possess alcohol, drugs or controlled substances.
On March 18, 2015 a probation violation hearing was held before Dehn and the probation violation was denied by Kadlec regarding the consumption of a beer.
On April 24, 2015, a revocation hearing was held before Dehn, and after hearing from two witnesses on behalf of the state, and one witness from the defense, Dehn found Kadlec guilty of violating his probation by consuming alcohol.
Dehn sentenced Kadlec to 90 days house arrest that will be served following the completion of his original one-year sentence. Dehn said Kadlec can be furloughed for medical appointments and procedures as arranged with his probation agent.
Body found near Scandia
By Ryan Howard
Forest Lake Times
On May 4, shortly after 6 p.m., the Washington County Sheriff's Office recovered the body of an adult male from the St. Croix River, north of Scandia's Log House Landing. The man was identified as Troy Michael Henry, 41, of Scandia. The cause of death is still being determined by Ramsey County medical examiners, but law enforcement does not suspect foul play at this time.
No other information has been provided about the death.
Motorcyclist on meth tries to leave arrest scene
by Jeff Hage
Princeton Union-Eagle
Nearly 9 grams of methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia were found on a motorcyclist April 30 who was pulled over for expired tabs on his motorcycle's license plates.
Now instead of a small fine for expired registration, Shane Anthony Werlein, 28, of St. Croix Falls, Wisconsin, faces felony drug charges and a maximum sentence of 40 years in prison.
Werlein told arresting troopers with the Minnesota State Patrol that he uses methamphetamine almost constantly and had used it twice prior to being pulled over on April 30, according to a criminal complaint filed in Mille Lacs County District Court.
Werlein was pulled over on Rum River Drive in Princeton for expired registration. Upon stopping his motorcycle, he quickly dismounted and began walking away, the complaint states. Werlein was told by the trooper to sit on the curb, but he refused, and again tried to walk away.
As the trooper spoke with him, he observed Werlein's eyes to be glassy and bloodshot. The trooper believed him to be under the influence of a controlled substance, the report states.
An inventory was taken of the motorcycle, which allegedly uncovered a digital scale, a plastic bag containing several smaller plastic bags, and two small bags inside a flashlight that contained 8.7 grams of what was described as a crystalline substance. Werlein alleged told troopers that the substance was meth and it belonged to him. That's also when he told troopers of his alleged recent drug use. He was arrested and booked into the Mille Lacs County Jail and later charged with felony second-degree possession of a controlled substance, gross misdemeanor third-degree DWI, operating without proof of insurance and driving after revocation.
Werlein has a DWI from March 2006 and was convicted of fourth-degree controlled substance possession in Isanti County in September 2006 and a conviction for fifth-degree controlled substance possession pending in Isanti County for which he failed to appear for sentencing.
At the time of his April 30 arrest in Mille Lacs County, Werlein had two outstanding warrants for his arrest.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 23/11/2012 (1730 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
After the Russian Revolution of 1917, Soviet Communist ideologues dreamed of creating a new kind of total state, which would encompass and control all aspects of social, political and economic life.
What was envisioned was not merely a new society, but a new kind of person, who would be so conformed to the system that they could not even conceive of alternatives to Communist rule.
This was the type of society that dictator Joseph Stalin attempted to realize in the Soviet Union in the 1930s. And it was this totalitarian system that the Soviets attempted to impose on the diverse nations of Eastern Europe occupied by the Red Army in the wake of the Second World War.
This process of Sovietization is analyzed by American journalist Anne Applebaum, who won a Pulitzer Prize for her previous study of Soviet forced labour camps.
Applebaum evokes the tragic plight of Eastern Europe under Soviet domination. She brilliantly reconstructs what life was like in the various totalitarian states; she has produced a superb historical narrative.
Applebaum focuses on the experiences of Poland, Hungary and East Germany.
Her study is divided into two parts. In the first, she explains the steps through which the Soviets consolidated their hegemony over the societies of Eastern Europe.
They installed a secret police force, usually trained in Moscow, which immediately began to target perceived enemies of the regime. They also took control of the region's interior ministries, and sometimes the defence ministries.
The Soviets ensured that local Communists ran the national radio stations; the radio, which was then the most important form of mass media, was integral to Soviet plans for the creation of new totalitarian societies through propaganda and "education."
Furthermore, the Soviets sought to co-opt or eliminate non-state institutions like churches. They were particularly concerned with youth groups. As Applebaum observes, "Even before [the Soviets] banned independent political parties for adults, and even before they outlawed church organizations and independent trade unions, they put young people's organizations under the strictest possible organization and restraint."
Finally, another hallmark of Soviet rule was the implementation of mass ethnic cleansing. Millions of Germans, Poles, Ukrainians and Hungarians were forcibly removed from towns and villages where they had been present for centuries.
Initially, the Soviets and their local Communist acolytes were amenable to free elections because they thought they would win. When elections were held and the Communists failed to win power through the ballot box, they resorted to even harsher tactics to impose their ascendancy -- tactics that Applebaum describes in the second part of her book.
These included the destruction of all non-Communist political parties, arrests and murders, the expansion of labour camps and much tighter controls over the media, intellectuals and the arts.
The extraordinary achievement of Soviet communism, Applebaum writes, was its ability to get so many apolitical people to accept Soviet rule without much protest. Applebaum explores the factors that contributed to this acceptance.
For example, Eastern European populations had been devastated by the Second World War. They were too exhausted to resist.
Moreover, the ubiquity of Soviet propaganda, and the threat of violence from the secret police, made resistance seem futile.
And there was a carrot as well as a stick: at least some who conformed became functionaries of the system and enjoyed higher living standards than their compatriots.
From the outside, the Communist regimes of Eastern Europe appeared solid in the early 1950s. But the moment of what Applebaum calls "High Stalinism" was to be fleeting.
Communism, she argues, proved to be inherently unstable. By attempting to control every aspect of society, the Communists made every aspect of society a potential source of protest and defiance.
Applebaum depicts the rise and fall of a massive project of social engineering, a project that may have seemed invincible, but which nevertheless contained within itself the seeds of its own destruction.
As Applebaum writes, "Human beings do not acquire totalitarian personalities with such ease... [T]he spell can suddenly, unexpectedly, dramatically be broken."

Grantee: Rodney Jackson
Rodney Jackson is the founder and director of the Snow Leopard Conservancy, a fellow at the Mountain Institute, and an honorary fellow at the California Academy of Sciences.
Endangered snow leopards in Central Asia face significant threats from retaliatory persecution after livestock predation, depletion of their prey, and trade in their valuable fur and body parts. In the worst-case scenario, a snow leopard enters a poorly constructed corral and kills 10 to 50 confined sheep and goats in a single night, effectively obliterating all of the herder's property. Fortunately, predator-proofing the pens of vulnerable livestock, especially those located within or near snow leopard habitats, may readily prevent such devastating losses.
Jackson is using his Big Cats Initiative grant to build livestock corrals in at least four Nepalese communities. Villagers will collect stones and help construct secure walls, and the Snow Leopard Conservancy provides secure doors and wire mesh to prevent the cats from gaining access to herds in the future. These corrals could each protect five or more snow leopards from retaliatory persecution.

The Smithsonian American Art Museum displays its collections and presents special exhibitions in two locations in Washington, D.C. Its main building is located at the heart of a vibrant downtown cultural district, while its newly renovated branch museum for contemporary craft and decorative art, the Renwick Gallery, is located nine blocks west, near the White House.
Before you visit our main building in the Penn Quarter neighborhood, please take a moment to look over our Gallery Guidelines so you know what to expect. If you are looking for a quiet place to work or to check your e-mail, free public wireless Internet access (Wi-Fi) is available in the Kogod Courtyard and the Luce Foundation Center.
If your time is limited, stop by the Information Desk for a self-guided tour brochure, Ten Highlights, visit the innovative Luce Foundation Center for American Art and the Lunder Conservation Center, or take advantage of one of the daily docent-led tours of the collection. If you are visiting us with your kids and want to explore the museum, pick-up a copy of our Self-Guide for Families or stop in the Luce Foundation Center for the latest art scavenger hunt. Don't forget, American Art's main building is open every evening until 7 p.m. so you can visit your favorite painting before going to dinner or just relax in the Courtyard Café.

The Food Network Kitchens peered long and hard into its crystal ball to come up with its annual list of the top trends that will define 2012 in food. Check out two of the trends here, then visit Food Network's Dish and Healthy Eats for the rest of the list.
1. Old-Fashioned is the New Fashion
History is on the menu for 2012. From high-end chefs to home cooks, fascination with old ways will gain momentum. The historical turn has been on display for several years in the revival of homesteader arts such as canning, pickling, salting, and kitchen gardening (and even backyard chicken–keeping and home brewing). If the economy remains slack, expect to see more books, tools, and products to feed this habit.
The shift has been most striking at the cutting edge of modern cooking, where some of the world's most influential chefs—Jose Andres, Grant Achatz, Sean Brock, Rene Redzepi, et al.— spent the year resurrecting dishes and ingredients seldom seen since the invention of the electric range: blueberry ketchup, spiced pigeon, pokeweed, pickled oysters.
Suddenly, for many, the way forward is going back into the past to recover things discarded in the march of progress: lost dishes, wild foods, heirloom seeds and breeds, tools and techniques of preservation and preparation. What's going on is no mere exercise in nostalgia. Rather, it is a recuperation of neglected culinary riches, forgotten foodways, proud agricultural heritage.
Get In On the Trend:
- Pickled Grapes
- Heirloom Country Duck with Oven-Dried Jonagold Apples and Foie Gras
- Heirloom Baked Beans
- Spiced Heirloom Pumpkin Pie
- Two Fat Ladies' Woodcock Pigeon and Potatoes
2. The Sub Goes Global
Forget the grinders of your youth, the subs of 2012 will be UN summits of intercontinental flavors and cross-cultural mash-ups. The Mexican-Korean fusion spearheaded by Kogi in L.A. will find its way onto sub rolls—think avocado & jalapeno + kimchi + galbi. Vietnamese banh mi will continue its march into the American mainstream, getting some clever tweaks along the way (e.g. Michael Voltaggio's bahn mi with pork cheek and chicharrones at ink.sack). And increasingly, submarine rolls will host global barbecue traditions from India, China, and the Caribbean. Anybody for a char siu hoagie!?
Get In On the Trend:
- Tortas de Chorizo y Frijoles Negros, aka Black Bean Chorizo Subs
- Vietnamese Banh Mi
- Pulled Pork and Kimchi Sandwich
Check out last year's predictions to see if we got them right (punch for New Year's Eve, anyone), and get more trends for this year on The Dish and Healthy Eats.

I've got this friend of mine that likes to make me feel like an idiot ... more than my usual amount of idiot.
The other day I stopped by his shop in the morning on my way to work. We've known each other forever, so I'll do this on a semi-regular basis just to bug him. The other day when I stopped by, before I even got my foot in the door, he was asking me if I could help him fix his electrical service. If you've ever read this column before, you might be aware that I am pretty far down on the list of people to assist on any kind of electrical project or most projects in general.
Before I could even answer him with a resounding "no," he had moved on to telling me something about it being a three-phase junction box thing-a-ma-jiggy, and it had to be moved. As I was preparing to tell him where he could put his three-phase whatchamacallit, he was moving on to some other part of the project that needed to be done. How rude!
As I stood there in the door of his shop, giving him the best haughty look of derision I could muster, I realized he was blabbing on about something else. Didn't he care what I had to say and that I was haughtily and derisively gazing at him?
I started to suspicion that there was a gas leak in his shop because my friend was really starting to act a little goofy. He was telling me what time he would be at the shop and where the fusebox was. I told him in a loud and slow manner, "You are already at your shop, and I cannot possibly care less where your fusebox is!" I couldn't have made it any clearer.
I really got worried for his mental health when he looked me directly in the eye and said, "Thanks, Steve. See you later." Oh great, I thought, now his invisible friend, Steve, is also in the room. The crazy people, real and imagined, had me outnumbered.
He then reached up and touched his stocking cap-covered ear, and I realized that he had his stupid Bluetooth earpiece in, and it was somehow magically hooked up to his fancy-schmancy iPhone, and he was talking to an electrician the whole time. Evidently, an electrician named, Steve.
I would like to say that this was the first time I had been fooled by this ruse, but alas, it was not. Due to the fact that my short- and long-term memory are not that good, I have fallen prey to the "I'm talking on my Bluetooth and you look like a fool" ploy on many an occasion.
This brings me to the crux of this column. I have no problem with Bluetooth devices. I just don't like it when people have a nicer cell phone than me. Sadly, it doesn't take much. My phone is basically one evolutionary step above those bag phones that you'll see in movies from the early-1990s. Of course I'm exaggerating, but not by that much.
At this time, I would like to mention that I like my cell phone. My cell phone works just fine. It has worked just fine for a long time. My cell phone is used primarily for talking to other people. I know that sounds crazy, but I'm telling you the truth. I can text on my phone, but I really don't like to because for some unknown reason, this particular phone likes to spell words wrong. Isn't that weird?
When I see everybody taking their phones out and flinging angry birds at little green pigs and listening to their well-stocked music libraries, the funnest thing I can do is get my phone out and calculate a tip. I think I can take a photo, but my 7-year-old daughter hasn't shown me how to do that yet.
I used to get mad as a youngster when the other kids possessed cooler toys than me. I guess in some ways it's today's version of the 1973 "… but he has a Big Wheel," episode all over again, except this time I can't have a conniption fit in front of my parents like I probably did back in the day. The only person I can get mad at now is myself. I stink.
One of these decades, when my contract is finally up, I'm going to buy myself one of those snazzy cell phones with all the bells and whistles that you can possibly imagine. I'll be able to get fancy apps, and I'll be able to play cool games and listen to out-of-date music. I'll be a Facebooking, Twittering fool. With that cell phone, I'll finally be one of the cool kids.
And that will make it that much more unfortunate when I accidentally drop it in a toilet.

John Galliano Spring 2013
For spring, John Galliano creative director Bill Gaytten took us on a trip East with an architectural and delicate collection that showcased oversize volumes that were reined in with a Geisha-worthy level of binding. Obi-style cotton poplin bandeaus in crisp white or black were paired with full, folded skirts that hit the knee, and roomy dresses had creases and tucks that created exaggerated shapes that hovered around the body. The long, strapless numbers with swooping asymmetrical hems were dramatic options for evening and all the more uplifting for their shell pink and coral palette. (In fact, Gaytten's use of color, including graphic combinations of turquoise and royal blue, was especially appealing.) There were some elegant trapeze coats, too, that were draped so lightly it was as if the fabric defied gravity.
Stephen Jones dreamt up the fantastical hats, echoing mille-feuille and birds' nests, that lent a specific femininity and playfulness to the clothes. Altogether, the portrait Gaytten portrayed was of a gentler, softer, and still somewhat sharp woman. Were the collection shown in a brighter, more optimistic space—as opposed to the inconveniently located and industrial docks of the Seine, which may have provided contrast, but unnecessarily so—it would have made a stronger impact.

Topic: I think this is good news
The doctors have run all the tests to determine if the cancer has spread beyond the liver. All the tests have come back negative; a huge relief for us. We can only view this as our first good news in a while.
We go see our first surgeon, a Dr. Steiber at Dekalb Medical Center in Decatur GA, on Monday afternoon after the MRI on Monday morning to start discussing surgery options at this point, if any.
I am still trying to get an appointment for her to see an oncologist at Winship (Emory Hospital). I am getting a little impatient and frustrated that I made the request on Monday and here it is Wednesday evening and we havent heard anything. Does anyone have any advice? I don't want to be "too pushy" because I don't want to be put "on the bottom of the list" to be seen.
I've read good things about the doctors and care at Winship (Emory). I know nothing about this Dr Steiber we're seeing on Monday afternoon, other than what I can find at this site...
Any opinions or advice on how to deal with Emory will be appreciated.
Best wishes to us all.....

LithiumScience brain teasers require understanding of the physical or biological world and the laws that govern it.
A boy ran to tell his father that he had found a chunk of lithium in their backyard. He said that it was pure lithium and it was very shiny. His father said, "No son, you found something else." How did the father know without even coming to see?
AnswerLithium is an alkali metal. It is never found in pure form because it is so reactive. Also, pure lithium isn't shiny if it has been exposed to air for more than a few moments.

A9 TV; 7 November 2011
Age, beauty and everything are feelings inspired in our hearts by Almighty Allah. Otherwise we would know none of these. Thanks be to Allah. Thanks be to Allah for giving us the concept of beauty. Thanks be to Allah for giving us the concept of handsomeness. We might never have known it. Everything might have been lovely, but we might never have known. Fresh water might have seemed bitter to us. Food might have caused unpleasant sensations in us. Roasting meat smells very delicious. Apples and oranges and everything are delightful. But our bodies might have been repelled by those same smells. Allah has created our perceptions in perfect form, masha'Allah. But these smells are pleasant; ultimately, they are the vibration of molecules. Allah represents the vibration of molecules as the blessing of a pleasant smell or taste in our brains, masha'Allah.
A9 TV; 11 September 2011
Human beauty is the greatest blessing in the world, there is nothing greater. We have flowers, but this is a billion or trillion times lovelier. Human beauty is incomparably lovelier. It delights me enormously and instills a feeling of great well-being in my heart, insha'Allah. I am filled with love of Allah. Because Allah manifests Himself in the other person. Allah manifests Himself in human form. And I look with amazement on that beauty and give thanks to Allah, insha'Allah.
A9 TV; 21 October 2011
Some of them are people with no understanding of esthetics, beauty or love. They have no love for children or women or flowers or animals, no love for cats or birds and, above all, no love of Allah. They are not used to it. People have gone wrong. They are amazed. "How does this love arise? There cannot be that much love," they say. They even say, may Allah forbid, "Not even Allah can be loved that much. You must not love Allah too much. You much just love Him in moderation," they say, may Allah forbid. So what can you love? You must love money and position. That is all that bothers them. A beautiful woman is a manifestation of Allah and the greatest blessing in the world, and if you notice they are radiant and immaculate. People are really shocked. I see it everywhere. They look with amazement at your beauty and reflect on it with astonishment. They appreciate it with amazement. Because a woman does not look full of love at someone she does not love, and she will lack the strength to be well-groomed. That is why many women are dirty and unkempt. Because they hate. Who is going to look at them for them to reveal their full beauty? Most women do not reveal their full beauty because they hate. Why should a woman have any dealings with people she hates? Women are normally immaculate and radiant. But they turn their backs on life in the face of base, mocking and loveless guys. There are many people like that. One can see the woman is tired of life. She is unkempt, her hair is all tangled, her hands and face are uncared for, and she is weary and loveless. Her heart and soul have frozen, she lives like a dead person. But when you give love to such people it literally enters their souls, and life returns. Their eyes shine, their hair shines, their skin glows and they have a joyous love. Blood flows to their brains. They are fully restored to themselves. They realize they are Allah's servants. Their souls rejoice with love and passion for Allah. Everywhere and everything is beautified. Their language and their hearts are beautified. But if you have no love of Allah and do not submit to Him, then He will put strange people in your way. Allah will drown you in filth because of your own filth. That is why you cannot see. So do not envy. There is no other problem. I have hundreds of attractive female friends. They have only seen a few of them. Light radiates from their hands and faces. Female acquaintances used to come here all bedraggled, frozen, with matted hair and wrinkled faces; life no longer had any meaning for them. They used to smoke and drink from time to time. I had many female acquaintances like that. But they came to me and became really lovely. Through faith, the Qur'an and love of Allah their skins and faces came to glow, their eyes became huge and they acquired the finest manifestations of passion for and love of Allah. They were filled with youth and vigor. Masha'Allah. When envious people see them they say, "We never saw them looking like that before." Because even stone would turn black alongside types like that! Not even a plant or flowers could survive in that horrible world of theirs with no Allah and no Book, in that characterless and artificial world of self-interest and perversion. Even the flowers in their homes all die.
But faith beautifies people and makes them younger and healthier. The Qur'an means health. Health of the body and soul. People who live by the Qur'an are beautified. Their lives and bodies become beautiful. Their passion and love become beautiful. Their depth and everything becomes beautiful. Allah then gives them strength and goodness and beauty. For example, I look at people, may Allah forbid; I see how they look without any make-up on. I see how wretched and haggard they become. Lovelessness makes the cells cancerous. The cells say, "I want love." But these people say, "I can only offer a state of being accursed, filth, hatred, envy, artificiality and insincerity." The cell says, "But I cannot bear that, please don't." But they say, "We are going to do it whether you like it or not," and so the cells begin dying off one by one. Hundreds of cells die. Eye cells die. Their bodies collapse. And finally, may Allah forbid, they die in a state of misery. Yet if they were to submit to Allah and the Qur'an, if they lived with a love of Allah, then light would radiate from their hands and faces. Allah would bestow radiance on their very veins and everywhere in their bodies.
A9 TV; 29 November 2011
Real beauty is beauty with faith and purity. A person will respect and value it. But since people attach no worth to a man with no character they are repelled by him even if he is attractive. I take no pleasure in such people. I do not like. Their existence disturbs me. But a person with faith whom I value and respect produces a great excitement within me. A very serious excitement. Because I think we have a chance of being together in paradise. How excellent! But the other types are ignorant of Allah and His book. What kind of mind can someone who is unaware of Allah has? I cannot imagine. How can I respect him. I just pity him. But there is a majesty to purity. A radiance. A beauty. No matter how beautiful a person is, since one can attach no value to them they have a bad effect on one. They are most discomforting, insha'Allah.
A9 TV; November 30th, 2011
The display of blessing is beautiful. Our Prophet (saas) says, "Get blessed and show the blessings." This is a nice thing for Muslims. Seeing a blessing on his or her brother or sister opens the heart of a Muslim. It also makes the hypocrites angry, insha'Allah.
A9 TV; October 30th, 2011
The greatest blessing is faith. Once guidance is granted, that person is saved in all aspects Insha'Allah.
Love, reason, knowledge and logic will prevail. Beauty will prevail. Sound, strong thoughts will prevail. Goodness and honesty will prevail.2012-10-31 11:19:31

With the US government missing in action, the statisticians who usually draw up Friday's non-farm payrolls numbers are kicking their heels at home. In their absence, the market is likely to turn to today's estimates from payrolls processor ADP – which has direct access to data on about a fifth of total pay packets.
This should make ADP's numbers more reliable than those from the government. But because investors focus on the government survey, rather than ADP, what really matters is how close the ADP estimates are to the official figures. At first glance they look pretty good:

PLAINFIELD, Ind. (AP) -- At least 10 people have been injured and one is in critical condition after a pileup involving more than 30 vehicles on a snowy highway west of Indianapolis.
Indiana State Police Sgt. Rich Myers says most of the injuries in Thursday's crash were minor but that one victim's condition was "very critical."
State police say about 20 semitrailers and about 15 passenger vehicles were involved in the crash during a snow squall that reduced visibility and caused slick roads. The crash closed I-70 in both directions for hours as crews worked to clear the wreckage and clean up oil spills.
Local firefighters and police took motorists who were stuck in a miles-long backup to area hotels and restaurants.

GLOUCESTERSHIRE legend Mike Procter has revealed that he may never have played for the club if it was not for David Allen.
Procter was team-mates at Gloucestershire with Allen, who passed away last month, and admits he owed a lot to the former Thornbury chairman and president for putting the wheels in motion for his move to the club in 1965.
"David Allen was actually the instigator in getting me to Gloucestershire," Procter told the Gazette.
"When he was on tour with England in 1964-65 he asked the South Africa captain at the time, a guy called Jackie McGlew, if he could recommend a few players to come to Gloucestershire and he recommended myself to David Allen.
"So I've got very fond memories of David Allen because he got me here.
"I have fond memories playing a football match pre-season with David.
"My football skills are actually nil so the only way I could stop him from going past me was to run at him with my shoulder. He wasn't very impressed about that but it was a bit of a laugh."
