OK, Since forever I've loved how emo guys look..they just attract me..but I'm a normal girl and am a little overweight...not terribly (like 10 pounds) but usually emo/scenes are sticks weight wise..looks-wise I'm normal..I guess...ppl would say..and would love to attempt the emo/scene style...but I'm pretty much a no nonsense tomboy chick...I can shoot a gun fairly accurately for example..if you have actually had something bad happen to you then yea I will comfort the person..that doesn't really click with the emo/scene guy attitude...(Please don't say I can't date one just give me advice around stuff that seems like it won't work)
I have tried to get 'in touch with my emotions' but I kinda locked em away...yea...I act tough so I won't get hurt again..no not due to a relationship.
Also do at least some of them act dominant..I've never truly known this..I mean..I can be friends with hem and have them cry on my shoulder..whatever..but I can't have a boyfriend do that to me...I assume its different for each of them but what is the tendency for their emotions?
But basically..my question is..can I date an emo/scene guy?
P.S. I would be wonderful if emo/scene guys could answer this vs a 'normal' guy..but I'll take whatever I can get...please say if you are 'normal' or emo/scene though.
Most Helpful Guy
I'm not "emo", as in belonging to the specific culture; I'm "emo" as in deeply emotional (though I do fit some of the descriptions like being skinny, tall and having darker clothes, haha). Let me state some things before I write more however:
- A lot of "emos" are poseurs, meaning they're in it for the attention. Others really had problems and found sanctuary in simply venting everything.
- You seem to be attracted to the style, not the people that compose it. (keyword: seem)
- "Have them cry on my shoulder" ain't gonna cut it. You do NOT understand our needy nature; if you really want to date such a boy, be sure to know what you're getting into. This is a warning.
For the last part, I've been a walking emotional black hole for many, many years - that meaning, I've been craving for (female) compassion and attention for a very long time... that made me more sensible and fragile. This is because of my mother's death and generally a "lone wolf" type of life. Imagine how much I wanted to sleep in a girl's lap... there's only one person in my life that tried to understand me and fill that void for me. I'm capable of murder of anyone dared touch her (yes she's that important to me) BUT I didn't drop all my "masks" (I still keep some things to myself out of fear she wouldn't approve).. yet. I'm wary and cautious of girls, most I've met did not know to take care of my trust or my feelings. Because of that, I prefer to be a distant asshole most of the times, especially when girls approach me based on my "eccentricity" (I forgot to mention I have my hair dyed red and have an earring; makes me look like a motherf***ing pirate :) )
Oh on the dominance part... I'm not sure how those other boys would fare. As much as I am sensible, I am a beast as well. My current girlfriend is.. much stronger than me but I'm not weak. We have frequent power struggles and I think neither is submissive or dominant - better said both.
I'm still a guy in the end, even with all those things said. I hope you understand some of what I wrote here.11|00|0
Oops, sorry for writing so much. :/
Do you happen to watch anime and/or read manga, as well?
- Show AllShow Less
You're like me, with the "heal then be healed" mentality. There isn't anything bad about it, the problem lies with the other person... be careful whom you associate with, a lot of people do not know how to handle these kind of situations and the worst of all, do not even want to.
I do actually...

THE family of shot Malala Yousufzai wept with joy as they were reunited with their miracle girl yesterday.
Parents Ziauddin and Toorpekai jetted to the UK from Pakistan — where the Taliban blasted Malala, 14, in the head for backing education for girls.
Dr David Rosser, who is treating her after she was airlifted here, told the family, including little brothers Khushal, 12, and Atal, eight: "She's likely to make a full recovery."
Her dad said as he left Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham: "There were tears in our eyes out of happiness."
He branded the coward who ambushed his crusading daughter near their home in Swat earlier this month as "Satan".
Dr Rosser added: "She's very tired but managed a big smile."
Surgery to rebuild Malala's skull could take place "within weeks".

Loved the story, very funny oh and you know how you can tell if an egg is hard boiled, if u can spin the egg on it's side like a coin and it spins with no problem. If it just wobbles and it can't spin really fast than it's not hard boiled.
| FORD B chapter 1 . 10/17/2010
More hilarious than the others of this series! No more dignity!

Ironhide, say goodbye to your dignity. Death by baby. *laugh*
Annabelle gave her specially patented puppy dog eyes, and included the pouting of her lower lip. Owwh, very cute! And poor 'Hide, gots bombed with eggs! What a luck for him, that Will found the not hard-boiled so good, what if he would have taken the wrong one ? *giggle*

Water wells that aren't deep enough -- or protected from water that flows on top of the ground or near the surface -- can easily be contaminated with the coliform bacteria. These bacteria are found everywhere in nature: in soil and plants, and in the intestines of humans and animals. Water in a well not constructed to modern standards can be vulnerable to coliform contamination.
Poorly Constructed Wells
In earlier times, wells and springs usually consisted of nothing more than a hole dug in the ground, sometimes lined with rocks or bricks and covered with a board, if that. These types of wells and springs, along with shallow wells or wells inside pits, become receptacles for bacteria washed into them during rainy seasons.
Contamination Causes
Coliform can get into well water as a result of flooding; missing or broken well caps, or construction with improper well materials; broken well casings; and contaminant leaks outside of the well casing. Flooding usually happens during the rainy season in wells with heads situated belowground in pits. Older wells made of concrete, rocks, brick or clay do not keep groundwater from seeping into the well, which can lead to coliform contamination.
Test the Water
The only way to tell if your well water has coliform or E. coli, a subgroup of the fecal coliform group, is to have it tested. The best time to test for coliform is right after the rainy season or during early summer. A water testing professional can take a sample of the water in a sterile container and send it to a laboratory for a test for multiple bacteria strains. Though most forms of coliform do not cause disease, types of it -- such as certain forms of E. coli -- can cause serious illnesses. If you have farm animals such as chickens, cows, pigs or sheep and an old hand-dug well or spring near their pasture, chances are your water may contain coliform bacteria, including E. coli.
Boil the Water
When your well tests positive for one of three types of bacteria -- E. coli, total coliform and coliform -- until it can be repaired, modified or a new well dug that meets safety standards, you need to boil water to kill the bacteria. The North Carolina Health Department says to boil the water for at least 1 minute before using it to cook with or drink. While you can chlorinate the well as a temporary solution, you must test for the bacteria after chlorination. And chlorination does not address the underlying problem of well contamination.

Lianna goes throughout the United States spreading a moving pro-life message
Lianna Rebolledo was raped at the age of 12. Two men kidnapped her in a car and threatened her with a knife. Traumatized, she attempted to commit suicide. She was at the hospital when she found out she was pregnant. LIANNA REBOLLEDO "They told me "you don't have to live with the consequences, you don't have to have the child of someone you don't know, you don't know what kind of genes they have, what type of blood they have, you're going to carry this for the rest of your life.â? At first I didn't understand why they told me this. Then they said: "Have an abortion and end this problemâ?. I asked myself, if I do that, will I get rid of this pain? Am I not going to remember the pain? Will I be able to sleep? Will I be able to go outside? A nurse told her to listen to her baby's heartbeats. At that moment, Lianna realized that what was in her womb was a new life. Her daughter Jeanette, she says, is the hope she needed to move on with her life. It was her daughter who returned the joy and strength to cope with the tragedy she went through. LIANNA REBOLLEDO "Yes, all women have the right to decide. We have the right to decide where we will live, who we want to marry or where we want to study. But we do not have to right take the life of other human beings that don't have a voice to defend themselves. Through her emotional story, Lianna travels throughout the United States talking about the value of life. MPI/JAE You Tube FA -PR Up: PM

New York Preview: Nissan Juke to Get U.S. Debut at NY Auto Show
Having just received its world premiere at the Geneva Auto Show, Nissan announced the Juke will be sold in the U.S. and will give the crossover a North American unveiling at a private event just ahead of the NY Auto Show.
Slotting in just underneath the Rogue in Nissan's lineup, we're excited to see if the European model's GTDI (gasoline turbocharged direct injection) 1.6-liter 4-cylinder engine, which makes 188-hp and 177 ft-lbs of torque. We're also interested to see what sort of design changes might be made to the admittedly odd looking ute.

We'll be sure to bring you full details and plenty of live photos on March 31st, on the eve of the NY Auto Show.

European Apple Sawfly
European apple sawfly adults are about 5/16 inch long and wasp like, but with a broad attachment of the thorax and abdomen. Sawfly larvae resemble caterpillars but have prolegs on each abdominal segment. Sawflies overwinter as larvae in the soil and have only one generation per year. Adults emerge during late pink and early bloom. Eggs are laid on the calyx end of developing fruit. Young larvae feed along the surface of the fruit and leave a winding feeding scar on the surface. These apples usually remain on the tree, and the presence of the scars can reduce fruit value. Older larvae bore deeply into one or more fruit, usually causing mid-season fruit abortion.
White sticky rectangle traps should be placed at one per 3 to 5 acres along the orchard periphery at pink on the south sides of trees at 5 to 6 feet above the ground. Treatment thresholds are 5.5 flies per trap by petal fall if no prebloom insecticide has been applied or 4.7 flies per trap with a prebloom insecticide.
An application of a broad-spectrum insecticide as soon as pollination is complete is the best control tactic for orchards with a history of this sawfly.

In her New York Times article, Lisa Damour talks plainly about the fact that most adolescents are skeptical about adults approach to these tough conversations, given that teens are witness to the wide-spread use of the drug with little to no consequence. The conversation is important one, and Lisa makes some great points about how to address the legalization issue while keeping an eye on maintaining a close relationship with your teen.
"In talking with teenagers about emerging neurological findings, adults might say: "Whatever happens with the laws, I hope you'll keep you eye on the science. You only get one brain for your whole life. I'm rooting for you to take great care of it." Some parents underscore their safety-first approach by promising to spring their teenager, consequence-free, from bad situations involving drinking, drugs or any other dangers the parents may have asked their adolescent to avoid".
The article is a great read for anyone with a teen in their life.Read NYT article

I love reading and learning languages. I'm fluent in Norwegian and speak it pretty much on a daily basis (because I live in Norway, fyi). I'm even trying to learn a dialect (dork/crazy?). Decent in Spanish comprehension but can't really speak it anymore because Norwegian pushed it out of brain. I learned how to read Middle English a la Chaucer in college. I cherish proper grammar and spelling. I'm kind of a dork like that. :) I get along really well with musicians and people who have travelled a considerable amount--I even seem to unconciously float towards musicians. I play viola and hardanger fiddle, which is a really crazy awesome nine-stringed sympathetic Norwegian folk violin. It's called hardingfele in Norwegian, sounds rather ethereal, and sometimes people compare it to a kinder, gentler version of bagpipes.
Often I am reading, making jewelry, knitting (mmm...textiles), writing poetry, articles or papers, speaking Norwegian, swing dancing (lindy hop), cooking, or playing music--essentially, engaging in some form of creative self-expression. If I'm doing something, chances are I'm extrememly passionate about it. That said, I do enjoy new experiences and am usually pretty much game for anything. Living in a foreign country has contributed to a wide variety of new experiences throughout the past year, some of which I knew I was getting into and other which I didn't, but did not regret them in the end. I suspect this year will be much the same, and yet totally different...
quickmatch people: verbivore
I am patient, quirky, and game for most things
a) Books/literature: Nearly anything by Shakespeare (Measure for Measure, Titus Andronicus, Much Ado About Nothing, Measure for Measure again and again), The Canterbury Tales, Memoirs of a Geisha, The Liar's Club, The Phantom Tollbooth, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, the Harry Potter books, Erlend Loe--Naiv Super, and Kurt Quo Vadis... Latest conquest: Watership Down. Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison, Around the World in Eighty Days by Jules Vern.
b) Movies: Quills, The Lord of the Rings trilogy, Batman Begins, The General's Daughter, Billy Eliott, I Heart Huckabees, Run Lola Run, Buddy, Bare Bea, Eternal Sunshine, Elling, The Count of Monte Cristo, Rushmore, Garden State, Amelie, Elling, Hero, Gosford Park, Eddie Izzard's "Dress to Kill," Pirates of the Caribbean, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, Closer, Shakespeare in Love, Monty Python's Holy Grail, MP Life of Brian, also Flying Circus episodes, Black Adder, Fawlty Towers, Simpsons, Family Guy.
c) Music: Beck, The Postal Service, Death Cab for Cutie, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, J.S. Bach, The Fire Theft, Cake, Norwegian hardanger fiddle/hardingfele, Swedish folk music, Frou Frou, The Fiery Furnaces, Ani DiFranco, Stravinsky, Radiohead, Elliot Smith, Sondre Lerche, Sondre Bratland, Ravel, Shostakovich, Rebecca Clarke, Bloch, Royksopp, Modest Mouse, Jeff Buckley, Kent, Bright Eyes, swing music like Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman, much more, Missy Elliott, Eminem, Miles Davis, Thom Yorke, Squirrel Nut Zippers, Andrew Bird, Rasputina, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The White Stripes, Iron & Wine, Nick Drake, Brahms, Rachmaninoff, Black Eyed Peas, The Faint, Ani DiFranco, Nina Simone, reggae music, salsa music, Tenacious D, Ben Folds Five, Fiona Apple, The Albumleaf, Colin Hay, PJ Harvey, The Chemical Brothers...and the list goes on.

Pesto and fresh tomato and mozzarella slices, fresh salmon, fresh mountain fish (ørret), pumpkin pie, good red wine with linguini and homemade sauce (onion and garlic are welcome), blue cheese omelettes, potatoes in all forms, Norwegian heart waffles, Danish pancakes, cheddar cheese (I'm a bit snobby with my cheese, but I like a wide variety), good coffee, green tea, Yorkshire tea, red wine from Chile, pear cider, Norwegian akevitt, South African Amarula, gin & tonic, whisky, tequila (especially in margeritas), Mike's Hard Lemonade and Cranberry, Corona while in San Diego, Guinness and bitters when in London, Blue Moon while in the Midwest.

AMD's 'Centrino' Strategy Worries Wi-Fi Vendors
vendors like atheros and broadcom report that their own customers have begun asking them what their contingency plans are, in case amd buys a smaller wireless vendor. such a purchase would place the hundreds of millions of dollars each wins from pc oem revenue in jeopardy.
the model, of course, is intel's "centrino" strategy a bundle made up of an intel-manufactured processor, chipset, and wi-fi card. by buying ati, the argument goes, amd has already taken a step forward down the road of emulating intel's centrino platform model. the obvious next step would be to invest in a wireless maker. for now, however, amd seems content in allowing customers a choice of wi-fi components, as it traditionally has.
what amd's wireless partners fear are statements like this:
"amd has long been a leader in providing solutions for networked computation and communications. going forward, our efforts will focus on providing communications-enabled solutions at the personal computer platform level, where we can leverage our chipset design and systems expertise and the amd athlon processor. the interests of our customers, shareholders and employees will be best served by our action."
fortunately for atheros, broadcom, and others, that statement was made in october 1999 by w.j. "jerry" sanders, then chairman and chief executive officer of amd, in his decision to sell the company's communications products division. in 2000, the company sold the unit to francisco partners, a private equity firm, and disbanded its wired networking unit, retaining its employees.
this week, dirk meyer, the president and chief operating officer of amd, told pc magazine that intel's centrino strategy was a "silicon land grab," and that amd didn't have plans to follow suit. amd will "continue to rely on the ecosystem and great partners like broadcom," he said.
"we're not going to do that," meyer said of following centrino. "the strength of our approach is for customers to have access to best of breed components."
"we don't see the communications controller needing to be as intimately tied to the processor as the graphics and video inside a computer," meyer added.
that hasn't stopped companies like broadcom from thinking of the possibilities, however. according to mike hurlston, vice president and general manager of broadcom's wireless lan business, the company claims to sell over half of all available wlan components mounted on a motherboard with an amd microprocessor. hurlston declined to break out the company's exact sales, however.
"we're certainly getting that [kind of question] from a lot of customers," hurlston said, when asked to comment on the implications of the amd-ati deal on the wi-fi space. "our answer has been that it's too early to tell."
of course, amd's buy of ati is in fact a "land grab," according to chipmakers and analysts. they note that the so-called "attach rate" the ratio of a particular component to a pc or notebook of a graphics chip, and microprocessor, is 100 percent. wi-fi components are now found in virtually all laptops, and chip vendors argue that there's a place for the in desktops as well, even though intel's plans to include the technology inside of its intel 915 "grantsdale" chipset was scrapped in 2004.
compared to the size of ati, analysts say, the representative size of the wi-fi component and its current value as part of a silicon platform isn't all that meaningful. analyst nathan brookwood of insight64 said he didn't believe that amd felt they needed close access to the wi-fi component at this stage.
"communications isn't that big of an issue it's not that big of a hunk of silicon," added jon peddie, principal analyst at jon peddie research.
"i think the big picture, setting atheros aside, is that all semiconductor companies have a challenge in capturing more silicon,' said craig barratt, chief executive of atheros. "in those platforms, in that context, the amd-ati deal on its merits makes a lot of sense."
"you'd obviously want to have all three legs of that," broadcom's hurlston added, regarding the microprocessor-chipset-communications chip trifecta. "still, maybe [amd] goes off and buys a smaller wireless company. that would obviously be not so good for broadcom."
and who might such a takeover target be? amd lists three wi-fi companies as its key partners inside of promotional literature, such as what accompanied the launch of its turion64 chip earlier this year. those three companies are atheros, broadcom, and airgo, a small startup known for its mimo technology, a key part of the as-yet-unfinished 802.11n standard.
airgo is also small enough that even amd, which is financing its ati deal through stock, and cash $2.5 billion of which was loaned to the company by investment house morgan stanley might be able to swing a deal. broadcom, by contrast, recorded $2.6 billion in revenue its last fiscal year. jpr's peddie also noted that ati also has a strong relationship with qualcomm.
airgo officials were unavailable for comment.
in such a scenario, companies like broadcom and its rival, atheros, would be forced to fight amd and intel for a spot in a notebook, something that atheros' barratt said he's used to doing since inte began is centrino strategy. during the second quarter, atheros reported that 44 percent of its chip sales go into retail (such as routers, pc cards, and adapters); 24 percent to oem customers like acer, fujitsu, sony, toshiba, and others, and 19 percent to enterprise and carrier customers like juniper networks.
"we sell into routers and cell phones, into game devices, many many other devices," baratt said. "our intersection with the laptop market is as significant as it is modest."
the argument against airgo as a possible takeover candidate, and another point in favor of the wireless companies, is that wi-fi isn't the endgame for the networking portion of a pc. laptop makers have already sold notebooks with external 3g cellular cards, and intel has spoke of integrating wimax and ultrawideband (uwb) components inside the notebook pc. bluetooth is nearly as prevalent in cellular phones as wi-fi is in notebooks, and dvb-h video and hsdpa communications could also be integrated one day, although they seem more suited for a handheld, wireless vendors say.
"i think the pc will continue to have a richer and richer set of wireless technologies," barratt said.

our vision
Our team
We believe that African organizations need the best talent in Africa to help them realize their potential.
We subscribe to the idea that the most brilliant, hardest working and most focussed individuals have the potential to be as much as 100x more effective and productive than 'the usual' and it is this talent that is part of our team.
We are frustrated by the fact that today, leading African organizations find it challenging to find the right skills to help them grow while countless brilliant young people aren't able to apply their skills to help corporates, non-profits and governments in their regions.
IPC will change this paradigm.
We recruit Africa's brightest talent. We work closely with our partners at the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences (AIMS), an award winning programme which seeks to enable the emergence of African Einsteins who can transform both African and global societies through their work.
This team is supported by an international experts network, each having deep and varied expertise in IPC's sectors of expertise.

Tsang agrees to ask radicals to stop filibustering
Related topics
Financial Secretary John Tsang Chun-wah will meet four radical pan-democrats on Friday to convince them to stop the filibustering that is blocking the passage of the budget bill, as it edges closer to the government's self-imposed deadline in mid-May.
Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying yesterday also called on the lawmakers to "fulfil their duties", but at least one pro-establishment lawmaker suggested Leung should join the meeting as well to show an effort to end the saga. People Power's Albert Chan Wai-yip, one of the four lawmakers who, in total, filed more than 700 amendments to the annual appropriation bill, yesterday said a meeting with Tsang had been arranged for late Friday afternoon.
He reiterated the group's demands of a universal cash handout of HK$10,000 and consultation on the universal pension scheme, despite the fact the government has made it clear it would not yield in the meeting.
"I do not see huge difficulties for the government to fulfil these demands," Chan said. "It only depends on their will."
Legislative Council president Jasper Tsang Yok-sing said he was delighted to see the meeting happen and hoped it could help to end the week-long filibuster. In a dinner reception with pro-establishment lawmakers last night, Leung was quoted as saying that the filibuster issue had reached a crucial stage and he was worried the bill might not be passed by the deadline in mid-May. This would affect public expenditure on livelihood and the city's development.
Lam Tai-fai, an independent lawmaker, said Leung should consider joining the meeting with radical lawmakers to convince them. Some lawmakers have also urged Jasper Tsang to halt the debate quickly.

THE Australian women's hockey team have beaten Japan 5-2 in Perth, comfortably wrapping up their fifth and final Test.
It only took Georgia Nanscawen three minutes to find the back of Japan's net, before Jodie Schulz got in on the action, notching up her 50th international goal for Australia with a powerful drag flick.
The Hockeyroos dominated the first half to go to the break 4-1 up, but were less composed in the second half.
However, they always looked in control in sealing their fifth consecutive win over Japan in the Test series.
"It was a really promising first half," Hockeyroos head coach Adam Commens said after the game.
"We had efficient goal scoring ... which was really pleasing.
"The second half became a little inconsistent in which we passed too many opportunities to Japan, however, once again we held control of the game and it was a solid effort."
The Hockeyroos are now preparing for the Six Nations tournament to be held in New Zealand next week.
"We are still trying to work out our best combinations as we head into the World Cup," Commens said.
"New Zealand will give us a good chance to develop our game and experiment with players and positions.
"Ultimately it will give our team balance and preparation before extending our tour in Europe."

Nice Hotel - Shame About The Room
Stayed for 1 night 22/11/2014.
Arrived early, free parking on site very good. First impressions of the hotel were very good. Had a drink in the bar, very interesting room in the oldest part of the hotel. Although, there didn't seem to be a member of staff just designated to the bar, so service was a little slow. We then checked in, very quick and easy and pleasant enough. Then we made our way to our room. We knew there was a little work going on in the hotel but I am afraid we were a bit disappointed with our Executive Double. There was a plastic covering over the carpet in the hallway leading up to our room as decorating was being done, which is fair enough. The room was large enough, with adequate seating ect. but there had obviously been a leak from the bathroom at some point and paint was peeling away from the skirting boards in the room and you could see where the damp had crept up the wall. The radiator had
been taken out in the bathroom and having a tiled floor and it being November was a bit cold after getting out of the shower in the morning. I could go on but I will just say that if I had paid £100 for the room I would not be complaining, £154.80 plus breakfast for this room is a little steep.
It was such a shame because we did like the rest of the hotel and the surrounding area. And by the way the breakfast was quite good.

A real hotel with old fashioned values
Noisy neighbours
Lots of door slamming in the night and loud voices outside( possibly other hotel guests consigned to the car park to smoke/have loud drunken debates) until 4am did nothing for a good night's sleep.
Staff seemed unaware of the issue. Everything else OK though. Good location for exploring Norwich.

I think through out Star Wars history troopers have been considered the butt of the Republic. But take into consideration that without soldiers to aid them the Jedi would be poodoo and the Republic little more than a Rancor Zit (do Rancors get zits??).

I also dislike how in KotOR 1 & 2 and through out the Clone Wars, troopers are little more than fodder.

Scientists Excited After Safe Mars Landing
The Phoenix Mars Lander touched down Sunday on the Red Planet without a hitch. Onboard instruments will analyze the ice and look for signs of life at a relatively boring-looking landing site. Joe Palca was at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., for the landing.
RENEE MONTAGNE, Host:
This is MORNING EDITION from NPR News. I'm Renee Montagne.
ROBERT SMITH, Host:
And I'm Robert Smith.
Imagine sending your baby 422 million miles through space and then finding out that it made it safely to the surface of Mars.
RICHARD KORNFELD: Phoenix has landed. Phoenix has landed. Welcome to the northern plains of Mars.
SMITH: That was Richard Kornfeld at the Mission Control at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena.
Phoenix is now sitting on the frozen soil near the North Pole of Mars. Its mission is to study the icy soil near the pole, trying to see whether conditions there might've once been favorable for life.
NPR's Joe Palca was at the lab for yesterday's landing.
JOE PALCA: A staggering number of things have to go just right to slow a spacecraft down from 12,000 miles an hour to five miles an hour in just seven minutes. That's why everyone here at JPL refers to this as the seven minutes of terror.
MONTAGNE: Atmospheric entry on my mark. Five, four, three, two, one. Mark.
PALCA: The seven minutes started when Phoenix reached the top of the Martian atmosphere. Even though the air on Mars is extremely thin, it was enough to slow Phoenix down to about 750 miles an hour. A parachute continued the deceleration. Then retrorockets fired to bring things to the speed of a brisk walk.
All the way down mission managers were getting information about the spacecraft's status. In the control room, mission managers held their breath as Phoenix made its final descent.
Unidentified Man #1: Fifty meters. Thirty meters. Twenty-seven meters. Twenty meters. Fifteen meters. Standing by for touch down. Touch down signal detected.
PALCA: About an hour after the landing signal, an elated gaggle of mission managers met with reporters.
Unidentified Man #2: So how'd it go?
PETER SMITH: It was OK.
SMITH: Did you guys see it?
Unidentified Woman: Yes.
SMITH: Did you see it? Unbelievable. Fabulous. Picture perfect. Picture perfect.
BARRY GOLDSTEIN: It was better than we could've possibly wished for. Everything we wanted in the telemetry. Everything locked up the way we wanted it. We rehearse - over and over again we rehearse all the problems. And none of them occurred. It went perfectly, just the way we designed it.
PALCA: That was Barry Goldstein, a JPL engineer who was the project manager for the Phoenix mission. And before him you heard Peter Smith from the University of Arizona. He's the chief scientist for Phoenix.
Both men warned that the real celebration would have to wait until managers could be certain the lander's solar panels had opened. Without solar panels to recharge them, the batteries on the lander would only last about 30 hours. But the wait wasn't very long.
PALCA: Less than an hour later, the first pictures from Phoenix arrived on Earth, showing fully opened panels as well as a flat Martian terrain marked with the occasional small rock.
Peter Smith admits the landing site looks a little, well, boring.
SMITH: I know it looks a little like a parking lot...
SMITH: ...but that's a safe place to land, by gosh. And there are not any big rocks. I think we really, really nailed it. That was the place we were looking for and that's what we found. Now, that makes it exactly the place we want to be, because underneath this surface, I guarantee you, is...
SMITH: ...ice. There's ice under this surface. It doesn't look like it. You don't see any ice, but it's down there.
PALCA: And it's the ice that Smith and his fellow scientists want to study. They will be using instruments onboard Phoenix to measure the characteristics of the ice - what kinds of minerals and salts it contains and how it interacts with the surrounding soil and air.
While it can't find life directly, Phoenix will look for the building blocks of life and for evidence that the conditions on Mars could, just possibly, be suitable for living organisms.
SMITH: This is a scientist's dream, right here on this landing site.
PALCA: The nice thing for Smith is it's a dream that's scheduled to last for 90 days and possibly longer.

NASA's Phoenix to Look for Ice on Mars
Past Blasts to Mars
There have been 39 separate missions to Mars, and more than half have failed.
Get the highlights of these Earthly attempts to film, circle and touch the cold Red Planet.
Phoenix Mission Tools
An emissary from Earth has landed on Mars. NASA's Phoenix probe touched down near the Martian North Pole on Sunday shortly before 8 p.m. ET.
Unlike the successful rover missions that continue to roll around on the Martian surface, Phoenix will stay in one place for its 90-day mission. But it has brought sophisticated equipment that will help determine whether Mars could once have harbored life.
Phoenix is in a part of Mars no lander has yet explored. Peter Smith from the University of Arizona is the scientist in charge of the mission. He says all the landing missions to date have gone to the dry, equatorial zone on Mars, where much of the landscape hasn't changed in billions of years.
"By landing on the northern plains, we're looking at active processes that are taking place today," says Smith. Scientists know that there is water in the form of ice at the Martian poles. "And these active processes have to do with the expansion and contraction of that ice," he says. "We're going to see climate change written into the soils."
In addition to several cameras, Phoenix has onboard chemistry labs that will allow scientists to see what kinds of chemicals and minerals are in the polar soil. While the labs can't detect life, they can tell if conditions were once favorable to life, whether the water in the ice was too acidic or too salty for life to exist.
The Phoenix mission is intended to last 90 days. It may last a little longer, but not much. When the sun drops below the horizon during the Martian winter, there will be no way to recharge the lander's batteries. Once they drain completely, the mission is over.

Discussion in 'Sports Zone' started by CanadianCowboysFan, Jan 2, 2007.
Weis will be cursed with many many 9-3 and 10-2 seasons. Darn shame, he could be a great NFL coach.
If we go the college route, I want Kirk Ferentz.
Good. I don't want him back with the Giants.
For now.
A few weeks ago, Nick Saban supposedly had no desire to go to Alabama.
Now, he's probably going to take the job.
This is your run-of-the-mill denial.
Doesn't mean much overall.
Now now Al, Weis said not all coaches are liars.
There really isn't much there that he couldn't backtrack on and it really wouldn't be "lying".
"I plan on being here until [his son] Charlie graduates from Notre Dame, and Charlie is in the eighth grade," Weis said. "Hopefully after that, we'll have enough money to be sitting on a beach somewhere sipping pina coladas."
Well, plans can change. Especially if someone, relatively soon, throws enough money at him to expedite that sitting on the beach activity.
I don't think the Giants would.
But someone else might.
Some people will believe what they want to believe no matter if there is nothing to back them up at all. Weis can say this 100 times a year for the next 10 years and idiots will still say he is lying. They will say he is going to jump next year for 10 years in a row; no matter how stupid they sound they believe it.
Well, that team would have to pay him and Notre Dame. Not chump change, either.
Notre Dame will fire him after a few mediocre seasons. They have zero patience over there.
$15 million buyout pretty much dampens things. Then add the at least $4 million you would have to pay him a year to match what he is making right now. Probably Danny Boy is the only one dumb enough to pay that much money; but I am confident that the ONLY Pro job HE MIGHT be interested in is the Giants. In about 8 years.
Give him a couple of years to upgrade the talent (and his class for this coming year is already a lot better then any of Losinghams classes) and Charlie will be winning it all.
I'd like for him to be fired for planting the image in my mind of him sitting on a beach wearing a bathing suit.
He coached an underacheiving team this year as well......may as well keep Tuna in that scenario.
Yeah, their only loses were to Michigan and USC. How is that under achieving?
College coaches have to say those things for recruiting purposes.
Had they lost to Georgia Tech and Michigan State, that would be underachieving. But they won both contests.
Ferrentz had a real bad season; and he was to blame for at least some of it. the Blume is certainly off of him.
You still haven't shown anything that states that there is a $15 mil buyout. You showed maybe some speculation.
But it is what it is... Alex said it best. As early as 12/21, Saban was saying, "I have absolutely no desire to go to Alabama" And then yesterday, "Well, lemme think about it, and I'll let you know by 10 tomorrow"
These guys really shouldn't pigeonhole themselves like that. Just say you're satisfied with your current situation and leave it at that.
The article listed at the top of this thread, as regards the contract. It was known that CWs first contract had onlya $1.5 mil buyout. White, the ND AD flat out said that the new contract was designed to make it very hard for any pro team to buy it out. The $15 million dollar figure was mentioned many times and no one has ever denied it. Other contracts of about the same 30-40 million dollar range had buyouts of around 25 to 40% of total contract value. So if the contract is a total value of $35 million (which seems to be accepted) the normal buyout would be between 8 and 14 million. Since White emphasized the difficulty part, it was speculated at the time that the buyout was higher then that- maybe up to 50%. Rumors abounded about the $15 million number- and no one has denied it, and as a ND fan I haunted the boards and forums and elsewhere during that period. Putting all the hints and such together that is why pretty much everyone in ND nation accepts that figure.

The tale revolves around the return of the prodigal son of Major Laxton, the devilishly handsome Harry Laxton. Harry, after leading a life of childish indiscretions and falling head over heels for the village tobacconist's daughter, has made good and returned to lay claim to his tumbling childhood home and introduce the village to his beautiful new wife. But, the villagers are prone to gossip about young Harry's past, and one person in particular cannot forgive him for tearing down the old house.

Promote Downtown
As part of our mission to create a vital and active urban environment, Downtown Spokane strives to assist community events and organizations in activating downtown through a variety of promotional opportunities.
Street Banners
You may have noticed distinctive event banners lining the streets on light poles promoting some of your favorite iconic Spokane events. Downtown Spokane manages the production, implementation and instillation of these banners. As per City Ordinance, street banners cannot be advertising, but may promote community events. More
Construction on Spokane's expanse of sky bridges began in the 1960's when the Parkade was connected with the historic 1890 Bennett Block building and the Bon Marche (now Macy's). The convenience of going between a covered parking area to shops and restaurants without being exposed to the elements caught on quickly. As one of only three North American cities to boast a skywalk system, these covered walkways are uniquely our own. Currently 16 skywalks cover a dozen city blocks. In the spring and winter you will notice seasonal messages highlighting all that Spokane has to offer. In collaboration with building owners, the BID assists in using these gems for promotion of community events. More
From red, white, and blue for Independence Day to the royal purple of the Lilac City, color adds an element of fun to any celebration. Downtown Spokane maintains lighting systems installed on the south side of the Davenport Grand Hotel and the north face of the Fox Theater. Add your color to our downtown skyline for free when you contact us regarding an event or promotion. Downtown Spokane also coordinates color schemes with the Lincoln Building and the Steam Plant Stacks. In addition, your BID maintains eight lamps capable of projecting large images on building flat surfaces. More

Where are my custom fields ?
Apparently, i have to start my own topic, here it is.
I made several different cunstom post types, each with its own custom field template
My first TEMPLATE #0 was shown in the accompanying custum post type that I gave up. I made a second TEMPLATE #1 which should be visible in another custom post type. When I create such a new custom post type, I see in the editor only the custom field template tittle. Furthermore, I do not see any fields that I can fill?
Since I created a second template (TEMPLATE #1), also my first template (TEMPLATE #0) no longer appears. Only with existing posts I can see the custom fields with their value. When I make a new one, I only see in the editpage the title of the custom field template plugin (nothing furthermore)?
I noticed also the following.
When I create a new custom post with TEMPLATE #0 (ref. my previous post) the custom fields are not visible. When I give the new custom post a title and save it, suddenly al the fields appear???
Unfortunately, in a new custom post type with TEMPLATE #1 this solution does not work?
What am I doing wrong?
Dear author, you can please check this. I would be very happy. I'm a little desperate! Currently, I can't use this plugin anymore! It would be a pity for all the time that I put into it.
This plugin worked inital fine. It would be a pity that I have to look again for a new plugin!
Hopefully someone can help me.

Which Countrys Food is the best why
What do you think of when someone mentions Italian food? Mexican food? Chinese food? You may think that you really know what these things are, but the truth is unless you've visited the countries of origin, you have a skewed perception of these cuisines. In America, we are notorious for one thing, making our own

Git Merge Conference
Git Merge brings together developers from across the globe for a full-day of Git-focused lectures, breakout sessions, and workshops. In 2016, we worked with GitHub to create the conference identity and website.
The Identity
A brand that lasts
GitHub wanted a brand system that could be used year-after-year, but had room to grow and stay fresh. We created a flexible visual identity that's anchored in typography. While the conference type stays consistent the imagery can be reimagined in the future.
The Identity
Conference collateral
Since this is the first year using the new identity system we wanted to build the visuals around something all Git users would recognize, the git graph. The graph is not only a familiar element from the product, but also speaks to the principles of the conference of bringing people together and the sharing of ideas.
