Simon Cowell: Cheryl Fernandez-Versini supported me
Simon Cowell says Cheryl Fernandez-Versini was there for him when his mother died.
The 55-year-old music mogul tragically lost his mother Julie last month after an illness and he has revealed his fellow 'X Factor' judge was a voice of reassurance for him as he dealt with the loss.
He said: "When you go through a tough time in your life you see who your real friends are. Cheryl was there, she was incredible - and that's the side that maybe she doesn't show to many people.
"But she is very compassionate and genuinely is a real friend. You don't get that very often in this business."
And the 32-year-old beauty has revealed her friendship with Simon on the show has changed since the sad incident.
She said: "Me and Simon are still rowing, but it's playful. He knows which buttons to press. But it's been a different circumstance this last couple of weeks, unfortunately, so it's been more banter than bickering.
"I love him dearly. And I have a huge amount of respect for him. And it's growing at the moment."
Cheryl also revealed she has buried the hatchet with former judge Louis Walsh because of what happened to Simon's family.
She added to the Daily Mirror newspaper: "We'd had a bit of a spat. But with everything that's gone on with Simon [and his mum] I thought, 'It's not worth it.'
"I texted Louis, like 'I know you're going to be affected by this' because they've known each other for ever, and I said, 'This is nonsense what's going on between you and I. And I just wanted to say it's forgotten about'. He gave me a really nice message back so I think we've made up now."

A new report from the Ookla owned Speedtest suggests that T-Mobile offers the best data speeds in the U.S. It was revealed that the carrier offers 19.62 Mbps down and 9.90 Mbps up on an average in the U.S. while Verizon offers 18.52 and 7.27 Mbps respectively.
This would count as yet another feather in T-Mobile's kitty as the carrier has already managed to take over the third spot from Sprint not too long ago. Speedtest measures data speeds on an average based on certain locations, so it's an accurate metric to judge data speeds. Over 5 million speed tests were measured to make sure the data gathered is not biased in one carrier's favor.
It is said that T-Mobile's new wideband LTE is the reason for the carrier offering better data speeds compared to the rivals. The carrier offers wideband LTE in 185 markets of the U.S. as of now, with plans to expand networks to more regions over the coming months.
In addition to offering better data speeds, T-Mobile has several user friendly promotions on offer, which makes their services quite attractive to new customers. Users from other carriers are also flocking towards T-Mobile in large numbers. If there's one thing holding T-Mobile back, it's the network reach across the U.S., which is somewhat lacking compared to the likes of AT&T and Verizon.

World economic history recorded cases when strong and steady national currency collapsed within a few days, forcing a country to pass over to the barter, as the money ceased to represent any value. The most dramatic currency collapses were caused by extremely weak state of the domestic market and problems in the national economy.
Current declines in currency
Nowadays, in the time of financial regulators and variety of tools, which can influence on the economic situation, it is still possible to damage national monetary system within a few months just by making ill-considered political decision. Practice of Zimbabwe can illustrate that it is quite possible. In 1999 government of this country started illegal confiscation of land from European business people, who had cultivated this land for many years. The confiscation was aimed at providing local people, especially war veterans, by the land property, enabling them to earn income. This ill-considered decision resulted in instant withdrawal of the foreign capital from the country, which caused collapse of the national currency. By 2008, when the local people refused to cultivate land, investments to the country stopped completely, price of food raised up to billions, growing up every 1.5 or 2 hours. In the period of escalation of tension from 2000 to 2009, government did not take any measures for economic recovery. In 2009 government decided to abandon national currency and introduce free circulation of the USD.
Postwar defaults in the currency market
After the end of the Second World War the aggressor countries have experienced devastating effect of the galloping inflation. Hungary was the country that suffered the most from the collapse of currency in 1945. Hungarian industry was completely destroyed after the war and the country did not have sources of subsistence. The prices grew by 4 times every day and government started to issue new notes - quadrillions. In 1946 government introduced a new currency –the Forint, which helped to stop inflation.
A striking example of the postwar collapse is illustrated by the conditions in Greece after the Second World War. Greek economy was paralyzed, as the country had to pay huge funds to Germany as compulsory borrowings. The famine, which followed after that, crippled the economy completely, causing steady, everyday rise in prices.
The most famous minor decline in currency
Surprisingly, the most well-known case of the currency decline in the world was a Black Wednesday in 1992, when British Pound fell by 4.49% against the USD and by 2.52% against German Mark. Although the exchange rate fell insignificantly, the fact became well-known in the world for a number of reasons:
- It was the first significant decline in the British currency, which has always has a reputation of the reliable and strong currency;
- According to various estimates, due to this decline, American financier George Soros earned from 1 to 1.5 billion USD;
- It is considered that the collapse was created deliberately by a person, who did not belong to the ruling elite.
The belief that there was a connection between the collapse and actions of Soros is based on the fact that the fund "Quantum", which belonged to the financier, had purchased the Pound within several months. Allegedly, within one day, on 16 September, Soros sold British currency for the amount to 5 billion, and bought German marks. By the end of this day Soros bought back all the funds. However, according to mathematical calculations actual amount of sales of GBP was much bigger, and this fact was later confirmed by Mr. Soros. Note that, tension in the market started on 9 September, and actions by a financier have just accelerated the process.

I was chatting with my friend and sometime-sparring partner, Washington Free Beacon managing editor Sonny Bunch, yesterday about the distribution of a large cache of stolen nude photos of celebrities. While I was turned off by the smugness that suggested that the theft was somehow the victims' fault, he was disturbed by another element of the response, the idea that there is no harm done in viewing the pictures once they are out there.
Our conversation ultimately turned to another question: the language we use to talk about the release of material like this, which has become disturbingly muddied. There are two terms that have come up frequently to describe the release of the photos: "leak" and "hack." The former term, in this instance, can suggest that this was some sort of accident, rather than the result of hard work and malign intent. We should stop using it in these situations immediately.
Cloud storage lockers do not "leak." Intimate photographs that famous women and men took with their partners in deeply private moments (and in some cases, when they were underage) are not simply dripping out into the Internet and seeping into other people's storage accounts, like a case of faulty and annoying plumbing.
These pictures were not strategically released by the celebrities, like certain sex tapes or early tracks from a forthcoming album, put out into the world in a way that lets the people who created the material test the response to it while also denying that they were responsible for distributing it. The people who amassed this cache and then released it were not even government or corporate officials, prying loose information the public desperately needed to know and getting it to the media at considerable personal risk.
These pictures were stolen. They were distributed in a way that is meant to humiliate the subjects, particularly women, and to deny them their right to choose who sees them nude and in intimate situations. The release of the pictures this weekend was the result of a series of active decisions, apparently made over a long period of time. It was not an accidental "leak."
We could also argue about whether it is proper to call the theft and release of the photos a "hack," a term that originated at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology as a way to describe pranking and practical jokes that were bound by a certain code of ethics. The term has come to be used in a much broader and more value-neutral way to describe everything from efforts to live life in a more efficient way to breaking into phone and computer systems (a practice originally known as "cracking").
It might be accurate to say that the people who have experienced this gross violation had their accounts hacked. But that term has an element of puckishness and cleverness that clings to it, blurring the malevolence and entitlement of the act.
Instead, can we please call these events what they are? A group of famous women and men experienced a series of break-ins. Their personal mementos were stolen and are being widely distributed without their consent. This is not an accident. It is on purpose. And we have a responsibility to use language that acknowledges what really happened and that makes clear that something can be done, by both corporations and law enforcement, to prevent and punish this kind of behavior.

Mark Zona has been keeping us in touch with what David Walker is doing.
Currently, he has four fish that weigh about 6-pounds. His last fish was a male that was found guarding a bed, with a 6-pounder sitting next to him.
Zona said Walker caught the smaller male and the 6-pounder next to him bolted. That type of thing has been happening all week.

Our Honorary Patron
Jeff Healey
Born in Toronto, Ontario, Healey was raised in the city's west end. He was adopted as an infant; his adoptive father, Bud, was a firefighter. Healey lost his sight when he was eight months old, due to retinoblastoma, a rare cancer of the eyes. His eyes had to be surgically removed, and he was given artificial replacements. After living cancer-free for 38 years, he subsequently developed sarcoma (an unrelated cancer) in his legs; despite surgery for this, the sarcoma spread to his lungs and ultimately killed him. He began playing guitar when he was three, developing his unique style of playing the instrument flat on his lap.
When he was 17 he formed the band Blue Direction, a four-piece band which primarily played bar-band cover tunes. Shortly thereafter he was introduced to two musicians, bassist Joe Rockman and drummer Tom Stephen, with whom he formed a trio and made their first public appearance at The Birds Nest, located upstairs at Chicago's Diner on Queen Street West in Toronto. The new band received a write-up in Toronto's NOW magazine, and quickly were playing almost nightly in local clubs such as Grossman's Tavern and the famed blues club Albert's Hall (where Jeff Healey was discovered by guitar virtuosos Stevie Ray Vaughan and Albert Collins).
After being signed to Arista Records in 1988, the band released the album See The Light, featuring the hit single "Angel Eyes" and the song "Hideaway", which was nominated for a "Best Instrumental" Grammy Award. While the band was recording See The Light, they were also filming (and recording for the soundtrack of) the Patrick Swayze film Road House (1989 film). In 1990 the band won the "Entertainer of the Year" Juno Award. Other hits have included "How Long Can a Man Be Strong" and a cover of The Beatles' "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" (which also featured George Harrison and Jeff Lynne on backing vocals and acoustic guitar).
By the release of the 2000 album, "Get Me Some", Healey had grown weary of the world of rock music, and began to concentrate his considerable talents in a direction closer to his heart, hot jazz.
He went on to release three CDs of music from this true passion, traditional American jazz from the 1920s and 1930s. He was an avid record collector and amassed a collection of well over 30,000 78 rpm records and he had been sitting in with traditional jazz bands around Toronto since the beginning of his music career. Though known primarily as a guitarist, Healey also played trumpet and clarinet during live performances.
Healey had, from time to time, hosted a CBC Radio program entitled My Kind of Jazz, in which he played records from his vast vintage jazz collection. He hosted a program with a similar name on Toronto jazz station CJRT-FM, also known as JAZZ.FM91.
He had also been touring with his other group, 'The Jazz Wizards', playing the afore-mentioned American 'hot' jazz. At the time of his death, they had been planning to perform a series of shows in Britain, Germany and Holland in April 2008.
For many years Healey performed at his club, Healey's on Bathurst Street in Toronto, where he played with a rock band on Thursday nights, and with his jazz group, on Saturday afternoons. The club moved to a bigger location at 56 Blue Jays Way and it was re christened Jeff Healey's Roadhouse. (Though he had lent his name and often played there, Jeff Healey did not own or manage the bar.)
On March 2, 2008 Healey died of cancer at St. Joseph's Health Centre in his home town of Toronto; he was 41. His death came a month before the release of his new album, Mess of Blues, which will be his first rock album in 8 years.

A few years back I ran across a pair of old Tommy Hilfiger curtain panels. They were bright and very stand-outish as the word goes!!!!! I just loved everything about them, so I bought them, took them home, and there they laid around 'til I got the nerve up to start cutting out my pattern for my "Tommy Quilt".
And wha-la! Who knew it would turn out so beautiful. So many compliments, so many "I wants", but holding strong (not usually my strong suite), I rejected all offers and she has remained here with us in our home and is displayed in my bedroom at the foot of my bed, which is exactly where she belongs and will remain til .................!!!!!!!!!

Hi all,
After upgrading servers from Dual Xeon E5645 2.4GHz (Nehalem) to Dual Xeon E5-2620 2.0GHz (Sandy bridge) I have serious performance decrease in my multithreaded application. I have created small C++ sample (attached) that summarizes the problem. In general I have prebuild LUT with 3000 int rows, each row contains about 2000 numbers. The function just copys each row to preallocated buffer and sorts it. I tried it once in main thread and once in separate thread (main thread is waiting). I do know that there is thread creation overhead but I used to think it is up to 1ms. For precise results I am averaging 100 iterations. I tested the same code on 3 servers running Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 and my application is also x64. The code was compiled with VC++ 2012 express. The results are:
Dual Xeon E5645 2.4GHz (Nehalem): Main thread - 340.522[ms], Separate thread: 388.598[ms] Diff: 13%
Dual Xeon E5-2620 2.0GHz (Sandy bridge): Main thread - 362.515[ms], Separate thread: 565.295[ms] Diff: 36%
Single Xeon E3-1230 V2 3.3GHz (Ivy bridge): Main thread - 234.928[ms], Separate thread: 267.603[ms] Diff: 13%
My problem is with 36%. Can anyone explain me what is wrong with my code? Maybe it is not super optimized but why it behaves differently on Sandy bridge?
Many thanks, Pavel.

I visited Callson Manor with some friends from work last year. By far the best haunt we went to last year! One of my friends was so scared she couldn't even go into the last attraction. I have been hearing the ads on the radio for this year and can't wait to see the new attractions they have come up with. If you only visit one haunted house this year, this is the one to see!Posted 10/6/10
Just awsome!!!
This is the best haunt I have been to in a very long time. It is outside and so when you go into the haunted houses that are built you really get this real feeling g of being in something creepy. A d the open areas and lines have monsters running around ans sliding on their knees. Very scary and worth every penny. Can't wait to see what they come up with this year.Posted 9/26/10

My husband and I are from New York we are so thankful that we met Dr. Dokka he has helped us greatly. My husband and I highly recommend Dr Dokka!! His staff is amazing !! The best DC in Clearwater.
I suffered from lower back pain which progressively got worse for about a year. Dr. Dokka correctly assessed my problem and helped me to be 100% pain-free. He also taught me techniques that I could do at home to avoid future problems. I referred two friends that had serious back injuries to Dr. Dokka and he was able to help them significantly. He takes the time to listen, is compassionate and seems particularly gifted in his field.
They have great rates and the doctor actually spends time hearing what your issue is so that he can properly fix it. He explained everything and staff was very friendly. Didn't wait long either. Felt like it was money well spent. I will continue to see him & I will recommend him to others.
I have been going Clearwater Spine for over five years now and can honestly say they are the best! Everyone is very friendly, highly knowledgeable and treats me like I'm family. I initially started seeing Dr. Dokka for chronic back pain that I started having after a car accident. They have taken such good care of me and helped me with many other aspects of my health as well. If you are looking for a chiropractor for the first time or are just looking for a new one, I strongly recommend going to Clearwater Spine and meeting Dr. Dokka and his staff. They really changed my life!
Nicest Dr. I have ever met. Very professional and caring. I would highly recommend.
Dr. Dokka has done so much to help me and my wife over the years. He is a wonderful doctor as well as person. J. Whitman

Early mornings turned to late nights and spirited debate echoed through the House and Senate chambers as we closed in on the final days of the 2017 Legislative Session in Frankfort. A flurry of bills were sent to Governor Matt Bevin's desk this week, highlighted by measures to empower our Kentucky teachers and create better learning environments for our Kentucky students.
On March 7, the Kentucky House of Representatives passed House Bill 58, informally dubbed the 'Tim Tebow' bill. If signed into law, House Bill 58 would allow homeschool students to participate in public school extracurricular activities for the school in their respective district.
This is a copy of a message I sent to Judge Riley and all of the Spencer County magistrates who have public email addresses. (Squire Rogers has no email address available. Do you, my fellow citizens, agree or disagree?
Either way, let your voices be heard by contacting your magistrates or judge, or by attending a fiscal court meeting.
Here is my opinion on various issues facing the county:
As director of the Spencer County Animal Shelter in Taylorsville, I would like to emphasize that the shelter report that aired on WAVE 3 last week was not to show that we have a poorly run shelter: indeed, it was quite the opposite and probably the reason there wasn't more coverage about our shelter. Being listed as one of the neediest shelters in Kentucky means just that: we NEED more to run a shelter that adheres more closely to state shelter regulations. If you watched closely, our shelter looked better than any other shelter in the news segment.
Despite the snow flurries and the brief return to winter weather, this is a great week in Kentucky. It's March Madness and this special time of the year offers a brief respite from all the political talk and hate and debate that seems to dominate the airwaves and social media these days.
We are in the final stretch of the Regular Session and the House has been hard at work to better Kentucky, not only on bills from our own chamber, but reviewing Senate bills as well. With just a few legislative days remaining, the brisk pace can be expected right up until the clock runs out. We passed several measures this week, dealing with multiple issues facing the Commonwealth.
Mike Woodford has been a busy man for several months as he has labored to help the Levee Commission prepare emergency plans that are required as part of the levee recertification process.
Last week, he held a meeting with local officials to help iron out the process of sandbagging and evacuations in the event of a severe flood event in Taylorsville, and before that, he spent untold hours researching maps, flood plans and past records needed to help put together a plan of action should the waters ever breach the floodwall.
I didn't know Joseph Sheeley, but I knew some of his family. I knew some of his friends and some of the adults who interacted with him daily at school. And like so many others in this community who never had the privilege of knowing him personally, I've still been grieving his loss.
Through social media posts, interviews with those who knew him, stories I've heard and a video that was made to honor him after his tragic death Saturday night, I feel like I've gotten to know him over the last 48 hours. This kind of story just breaks my heart.

Citing an Associated Press story, Michigan's stud freshmen quarterback Ryan Mallet has decided to transfer following Lloyd Carr's resignation and the hiring of Rich Rodriguez. This move could have been seen from a mile away. Tennessee is seen as a potential landing place, where Michigan's old offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach are favorites to land jobs. Mallett was widely considered the second best prospect in last year's class, following the less-than-inspiring Jimmy Claussen, of course at Notre Dame. Mallett is a big guy with a rocket arm. He fit in the traditional (boring) offense that Michigan has used the last few years (until the bowl game). Rodriguez is the father of the spread option which of course employs a dual-threat quarterback, like Pat White, Alex Smith, or Heisman winner Tim Tebow.
Here are a list of teams that Mallett could possibly land at, with the outlook of it happening. Keep in mind, I know nothing of the situation and do not know any of his family or coaches, this is sheer speculation. I also do not know what his priorities are. Obviously different schools have things to offer. Here is a list of those:
Playing Time: By the time he sits out his mandatory year, Mallett will have 3 years of eligibility remaining. He may opt to go to a school where he will be guaranteed a starting spot as a sophomore, or he may opt to go somewhere where he doesn't mind first starting as a junior. You have got to figure this is at the forefront of his decision.
Style: Michigan fit his style perfectly. He could drop back behing a Big Ten line and throw the ball. He could sit comfortably in the pocket. He could thrive and possibly become a great NFL quarterback in a system like that. However, college is a different game. He would not fit in Rodriguez's offense. He might want to attend a school where he could sling the ball all over the field and throw 55 times a game.
Prestige: This goes hand in hand with playing time in most cases. He has a better chance to play and star at a smaller school. At a football powerhouse, he would not be guaranteed to ever start a game. He might need to feed his ego, no matter how small or large it may be and go to a big school.
Weather: Since he committed to Michigan, he probably does not care about how cold the school is. Who knows if he secretly longs to live for 4 years in Califorrnia or Florida though.
Salary: Just kidding...probably.
1. Tennessee Volunteers- This has been handicapped as the top team in the race for Mallett. Phil Fulmer's squad had a good year, but needs to get ready for the future. They are expected to bring in Michigans QBs coach and offensive coordinator, which would of course appeal to Mallett. They play in the SEC and have recently been overshadowed despite being a perennial top 25 team. This looks to be a great situation.
2. UCLA Bruins- If I was Mallett, I know exactly where I would go. Rick Neuheisel knows what it is like to be a great quarterback at UCLA. He is sure to surround Mallett with a ton of talent, in addition to what is already there. He would be wearing the best uniform in college football. He would get to play at the Rose Bowl on Saturdays and be in one of the world's largest media markets. The weather is perfect and they throw the ball and are only a few months removed from a preseason top 10 ranking.
3. Arkansas Razorbacks- Bobby Petrino will do his best to woo him there. He runs a pro-style offense and has connections to all sorts of people in the NFL. He has made Brian Brohm a tremendous pro prospect. They have one of the best fan bases in the land and play in the spotlight of the SEC, and he'd be playing for a superstar coach, if he remains there that is.
4. Southern Methodist Mustangs- Who doesn't think that June Jones will do his darndest to land Mallett? God knows he loves th throw the ball, and Mustang Pride will be back with the exciting new offense that comes with Jones. They are sure to land some playmakers, also. It is always warm, if not HOT, and they have a very good football history, ending with the death penalty. He would probably be handed the starting job as a sophomore in 2009 and be able to put up cartoon-like numbers. They play in Conference USA, widely considered inferior to the WAC. Don't discount that Mallett would be playing in his home state.
5. Texas Tech Red Raiders. from Texarkana, Texas, so why not go to a home state team? The latest record-breaking Texas Tech quarterback in Mike Leech's system is Graham Harrell, who will be a senior next year during Mallett's transfer year. It gives him a chance to play close to home, and develop an understanding for their complicated offense. He will learn under one of the great minds in offensive football and watch one of the best current passers in the game. He'd be the most talented recent quarterback at Tech, and could break nearly every offensive record with luck and a good team. Looking at this, Tech should probably be up the list.
6. Georgia Bulldogs- The team that dismantled Hawaii in the Sugar Bowl is expected to be the number one team in the land next year, according to ESPN.com. Knowshon Moreno is one of the best running backs in the country and will only be a sophomore next year. They have the most returning talent in the SEC and play an under control, pro style game. He will have speed, speed, speed at every position, and Mark Richt would kill to have a better arm, less athletic Matt Stafford in 2009, when many of this year's starters will still be on the squad.
7. Missouri Tigers- Chase Daniel will be returning to lead an up and coming team. They play an incredibly easy schedule next year, so even if he was not playing, Mallett could get accustomed to a championship atmosphere. They throw a lot and have a very creative offense, and it isn't terribly far from Texas. Mallett would further bolster their recruiting.
8. Kansas Jayhawks- The story in Lawrence is very similar to the one in Missouri. Because of their weak schedule this year, hopefully Mallett won't see it as a fluke, even after their bowl win.
9. Ohio State- Wouldn't that stick it to Big Blue? His father's comments seem like Mallett will miss Michigan and that he genuinely enjoyed his time there, but who knows what he really feels. He would be a natural fill-in in 2 years.
10. San Diego State/ San Jose State/ New Mexico- Beautiful places, beautiful schools. Wide open offenses. Terrible football teams.
11. LSU Tigers- They are a little down the list from Georgia because where Matt Stafford is going to leave next year, Ryan Perriloux will probably be around, unless he decides to enter the draft. That very well might happen. Even so, Mallett would have a great chance to win a title and to quarterback a contender for 2 years if Perriloux sticks around for his senior year.

CDTA annual rider numbers highest in nearly 30 years
Capital District Transportation Authority ridership in the past 12 months was the highest it's been in nearly three decades, officials reported Wednesday.
Carm Basile, the authority's chief executive officer, reported ridership increased to more than 15.6 million between April 2012 and March 2013, CDTA's fiscal year. That was an increase of more than 675,000 from the previous fiscal year and the most since 16.3 million riders boarded CDTA buses between April 1984 and March 1985.
The 5.1 percent increase in riders wasn't as great as recorded the previous year, when CDTA saw an 8 percent increase. Still, the authority's growth in riders was significant during a time when there was no external factor driving the figures.
"It used to be ridership increased because fuel prices went up or some sort of external event," Basile said during CDTA's monthly board meeting Wednesday. "Well, that didn't happen this year. Ridership increased because of all the good things we've been able to get done."
For instance, the authority was able to garner more riders through its universal access program, which allows students from participating colleges and universities to use their school identification cards to board CDTA buses. The academic institutions each contract with CDTA, meaning students use the service at no cost.
CDTA now estimates roughly 20 percent of its riders fall under the universal access program, and that's likely to grow as the program expands. Already, nine area colleges use the program. In August, the authority also entered an agreement with ShopRite, which has four locations in the Capital Region.
"Our goal is to move into this region with this model," said Margo Janack, a spokeswoman for CDTA.
The increase in ridership also helped drive a 6 percent increase in revenue over the previous fiscal year. The additional revenue has helped keep the authority in the black, a marked change from 2012, when CDTA was faced with closing a projected $10 million budget gap.
This year's budget was balanced more easily, partly because of mortgage recording tax revenue from the four counties that was about 41 percent higher than originally anticipated.
CDTA's board also nominated a new chairman to replace the outgoing Denise Figueroa, who served three years in the post. Dave Stackrow, who represents Rensselaer County on the board and served as chairman until 2010, was appointed as Figueroa's successor; Georgeanna Lussier of Saratoga County was designated as vice-chair.
"We are a model of success, and we need to build on that," Stackrow told the board.

I started talking with him a few months ago. I never dated any guy before even if I am 21. This guy seems really smart, he is studying for his masters degree and also working as an engineer. So far our discussions online are interesting so I never get bored while talking to him. He REALLY shows me how interested he is, he is very understanding and has a cute face.
Here comes the problem. I always told myself that dating will never be for me. My plans on having a boyfriend were nonexistent.
In my opinion, having a relationship, while having 0 experience would be a lot of burden and I would most likely suffer a lot and be really immature while in a relationship, so I would rather not do that.
His personality tho, makes me question my previous thoughts regardless relationships.
Because I decided not to focus on meeting guys, I focused on my studying. In September I will take some training lessons in another country and right after that, because I applied and I was accepted, I will be an exchange student in another country for 5 months, that means that I will be outside my country for half a year. Not to say that I already planned to get an Internship abroad during next summer holiday, so I would be only for a few months in my country.
I don't want to hurt his feelings. The idea of going on a first date, seems quite exciting. If I would decide to go on a date, would it be selfish for me to hope that he will hate my guts and not ask for another date? (because that's exactly how I feel). I am honestly very confused. He insisted and waited for me to go on a date with him for so many months so he seems very serious, yet I don't want to create more drama if something happens because I will be out of the country.
To be honest, it seems pointless to me. Yet I somewhat feel like I should give him a chance. What should I do?
Thanks everyone who took the time to read everything! :D
Most Helpful Guy
I say go on the date and see what happens. This guy seems like a great guy and in today's society, that is saying a lot. He wants to better himself by studying and working at the same time. That honestly takes a lot. However, I'm confused that you said you aren't into dating yet you are talking to him online? Does this mean you found him on an online dating website? Either way, you seem like an intelligent girl so you not ever being in a relationship is not going to hinder you trust me. Maturity is maturity. You don't need experience in being a relationship you just need common sense.11|00|0
Thank you for your advice and kind words! :D Actually, I met this guy on one of my University parties but when the party was almost over, so we told each other just a few words. Because of that, he added me on Facebook. At first I wanted to ignore him because I thought that he was not serious, but he sent me a long message right when he added me and I was impressed so I started talking to him more often. I will follow your advice and go on a date with him ^^ Thanks again!
- Show AllShow Less
I only ask because I have always wondered if meeting a girl briefly and then adding her on Facebook followed by messaging her about hanging would creep the girl out or actually work. I would ask you more about this considering I'm hoping to be in a similar situation, but I don't want to bore you anymore. Good luck with him.
Oh, I understand. Well, let me tell you something. Whenever you hear stuff like "don't show her that you like her, be cool, play hot and cold" it applies only to immature people. I'm sure that your girl would not be creeped out. Creepy would be having a vulgar language or telling her right away that you want to marry her and have her babies. If you are sincere about your feelings with her, she would most likely will appreciate it. Creepy would be a guy who only cares about bangin' girls and has no motivation to care about other stuff in his life. Not a super friendly message on facebook. Don't worry, you don't bore me at all! The conversation is enjoyable, so feel free to message me anytime :D. Thanks! Good luck with your girl as well!

Ann Arbor, MI — Modern History Press, Michigan, has just nominated authors Tyler R. Tichelaar and Anya Achtenberg for the 96th Society of Midland Authors (SMA) Book Awards.
Tichelaar's The Gothic Wanderer: From Transgression to Redemption raises the bar for literary criticism of the gothic classics for a new generation while linking them firmly to today's 21st century media, such as Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series. A seventh-generation resident of Marquette, Michigan, Tichelaar's past scholarship includes definitive histories of Marquette as well as in-depth examination of Arthurian genealogies.
Achtenberg's Blue Earth is an excoriating journey which connects America's largest mass execution – the hanging of 38 Dakota Indians in 1862 with the farm crisis of the 1980s in rural Minnesota. The cultural scars of generations past reverberate in unexpected dimensions in this new novel. Minneapolis resident Achtenberg has taught creative writing widely, including at Intermedia Arts and The Loft in Minneapolis, New York University, Springfield College Boston, Hamline University, the University of Minnesota and elsewhere. In addition to fiction, her passion for poetry has landed her a finalist position in five major awards.
Past nominees from Modern History Press for the SMA Award include: Sherry Quan Lee for How to Write a Suicide Note, Larry Hayes for Mental Illness and Your Town, and Mark Elswick for PadMan. Victor R. Volkman, Senior Editor at Modern History Press, says, "It is my greatest honor to put forward our strong team of midwestern authors for the annual SMA awards. Each year, I am awed anew at the diversity of our work and its contribution to the literary heartland of America. I wish each contestant the best of luck in the process."
About the SMA Book Awards
Each year since its inception in 1915, the SMA has presented awards for excellence to authors and poets. Currently the Society presents awards of cash and recognition plaques to winners in the categories of adult fiction and nonfiction, biography, poetry, and children's fiction and nonfiction published in the previous year. The juried competition is open to authors and poets who reside in, were born in, or have strong ties to the twelve-state Midwestern Heartland: Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota or Wisconsin.

Bayern beats Braunschweig 2-0 in Bundesliga
Credit: The Associated Press
BERLIN — Arjen Robben scored twice for unbeaten Bayern Munich to beat bottom side Eintracht Braunschweig 2-0 in the Bundesliga on Saturday, while Borussia Dortmund needed two late penalties to win 3-1 at Mainz.
Robben scored in the second minute after Mario Goetze picked him out with a ball over the top. The Dutchman's initial effort struck the post but the rebound fell kindly for him to head home. He added his second in the 30th when he cut inside two defenders before letting fly.
"It was clear that it was going to be a huge challenge for us," said Braunschweig coach Torsten Lieberknecht, whose squad reportedly cost 128 times less than Bayern's.
Bayern utterly dominated the first half but the visitors were unlucky not to score in the second as the home side relaxed.
David Alaba saved goalkeeper Manuel Neuer's blushes by clearing Domi Kumbela's goal-bound effort off the line, and Kevin Kratz hit the crossbar with a deflected free kick late in the game, which Bayern ended on the counterattack.
"It was a difficult game because we've come from Dortmund and Moscow," said Bayern coach Pep Guardiola, referring to his side's previous league and Champions League games.
"It's another game more and we won. In the end I'm very satisfied with the performance," the Spaniard added, after Bayern stretched its record unbeaten run to 39 games.
Dortmund found Mainz a tough nut to crack as Juergen Klopp returned to the club where he spent his entire playing career and coached for 7 ½ years.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang finally broke the deadlock in the 70th, with a free kick that went in off the left post.
But Mainz equalized through Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting's penalty four minutes later after Lukasz Piszczek brought down Yanus Malli.
Robert Lewandowski restored Dortmund's lead through another penalty five minutes after that, and Mainz midfielder Elkin Soto was sent off for handling Aubameyang's effort on goal, before Lewandowski gave the scoreline a flattering look with another penalty in injury time.
"I'm totally happy with the result and with the way the game went," Klopp said.
Werder Bremen scored in the last minute for a 4-4 draw at Hoffenheim, Bayer Leverkusen beat relegation-threatened Nuremberg 3-0 and Hertha Berlin drew 0-0 with Augsburg.
Schalke defeated Stuttgart 3-0 in the late game to climb fifth and ease the pressure on coach Jens Keller.
"We played well here. It's crazy that it could end 3-0," said Stuttgart coach Thomas Schneider, whose side has just one win from its last seven games.
Jefferson Farfan scored in the 34th when Julian Draxler set him up on the right and claimed his second in the 47th from the penalty spot — the seventh awarded in the Bundesliga on Saturday — after Draxler made the most of Christian Gentner's contact to go down.
United States midfielder Jermaine Jones, who ran over 12 kilometers (7 1/2 miles) during the game, secured the result with a powerful shot inside the left post in the 79th.
"I have to pick one player out — Jermaine Jones has taken criticism before, from me included, but he was outstanding today and I'm happy he got his goal," Keller said.
Earlier, Sejad Salihovic scored two penalties within six minutes for Hoffenheim to lead 2-0 by the 18th minute.
Bremen captain Aaron Hunt pulled one back in the 45th, also from the penalty spot, one minute before Eljero Elia equalized when Hunt's harmless-looking cross slipped through Koen Casteels' fingers.
Salihovic crossed for Kevin Volland to score four minutes after the break, and Kai Herdling made it 4-2 with a fine strike four minutes later.
But Nils Petersen pulled one back in the 59th and Philipp Bargfrede scored his first Bundesliga goal very late to secure an unlikely draw for Bremen.
"I'm happy for all the neutral fans and the journalists — they enjoyed the game. For us coaches on the other hand, it would often make you tear your hair out," Bremen coach Robin Dutt said.
His counterpart was equally unappreciative.
"If we played normal games for the whole season, you could say that such a game is awesome," Hoffenheim coach Markus Gisdol said. "But it's like that every week with us. It's starting to get annoying."
Leverkusen, humiliated in Wednesday's 5-0 home defeat to Manchester United in the Champions League, remains four points adrift of Bayern after the side's 11th win from 14 games.
Sami Hyypia's side endured a difficult start against Nuremberg before Son Heung-min scored with a neat finish in the 36th, Jens Hegeler set up Stefan Kiessling with his heel two minutes after the break, and Son scored his second in the 76th.

I am currently using a Wyse Thin client for our conference room pc. When a user needs it they use RDP to connect to their own PC so that they are working off of their native workspace.
The problem is that i am going to be setting up a term server and want that Wyse back in my server room for testing and such. Does anyone have a suggestion for an OS i could load on a pc that would only offer internet browsing and RDP? I thought about using BartPe but it runs a little slow off of CD and if it were restarted users would freak when asked about the network settings.

Just a comment on your BartPe remark.
Can't you run Bart (now) off a USB stick which is writable and therefore you don't need them to put the network settings in again and again?
Jun 23, 2008 at 3:37 UTC
You are correct i should be able to... When i have a spare moment i am going to try it out.
Jun 23, 2008 at 3:48 UTC
It runs really well from an external usb hdd.
Jun 23, 2008 at 3:51 UTC
Well, if it runs from external hdd shouldn't it run from an internal hdd? I havent messed with it more that just for a win32 platform to run ghost on.
Jun 26, 2008 at 5:24 UTC
akp982 is an IT service provider.
I use thin clients and we currently have 2x thin client manager running http://www.2x.com/
currently using free version but soon to upgrade to full version, it has rdp and browser settings

First I'd like to personally thank everyone who participates in the yearly Ubuntu community user survey and hope that you find the data and results as useful and interesting as I do.
To preface this data remember that we conduct these surveys to help understand and improve Ubuntu for everyone, not to get behind a general consensus and bash other viewpoints.
With that said, the most recent Ubuntu community survey has been completed for a few months and I finally had the time to publish the results here. There are lots of interesting points to pick out but I wanted to start with something I wrote about a while back, Ubuntu online search results.
From this user survey we can see that 74 percent of the respondents opt to disable the online search results. That's a huge staggering number considering the amount of time and effort put into developing this feature, promoting it, and defending it from Canonical's shoes. Obviously the next path we need to take here is to fully understand why users are opting out of using the online search results feature without jumping to conclusions.
Then we (Canonical employees and Ubuntu users) need to determine if the problems with Unity search can be easily fixed or if the feature should be scrapped completely. If the majority of users are disabling a feature is it worth the time to continue developing it? Then, if the feature relaunched could you convince users to give it another chance?
If I had to speculate the two main reasons why users are opting out of the online search results feature it would be
1. Privacy concerns – with no regard or stance to the legitimacy of the concerns because this article isn't about that
2. Usefullness – anywhere from the speed of the tool (to slow), lack of scopes, poorly returned results, etc.
Do you have Unity online search results disabled? Care to tell us why? I would love to hear your thoughts and comments.

I know there already is a blog about this, but what do you want to see in Season 7 of AT?
Here are the things I want to see:
- Long forgotten characters returning in a future episode (e.g. Susan Strong, Flambo, Penny)
- Maybe an episode with Jake only (I mean, Jake was absent in four episodes (if you count the Lemonhope episode) in the 5th season). I don't have anything against Finn, but they should lay off him for a while.
- A flashabck episode with Finn's parents (I'm talking about how his birth parents abandoned him)
- An episode where Charlie, Jake and Lady's daughter, has a speaking role.
- More characters singing licensed songs (like when Simon sung the Cheers theme song in Simon and Marcy)
What are some things you want to see in Season 7?

Does economic upgrading generate social upgrading? Insights from the horticulture, apparel, mobile phones and tourism sectors
Abstract We implement a "parsimonious" and operational approach to measuring economic and social upgrading over 1990-2009 in four global value chains -- apparel, mobile phones, agrofoods and tourism -- based entirely on data published by international institutions. Economic upgrading is defined as a combination of growth in export market shares and export unit values. Social upgrading is a combination of changes in employment and real wages. We find considerable variation across sectors in the relation between economic and social change. "Downgrading" is not uncommon, especially in the social realm. Economic upgrading is often not associated with social upgrading, but social upgrading occurs almost always when economic upgrading is also observed.

Acclaimed director Steven Spielberg admits he likes to take on projects that intimidate him, and says he is always nervous when he is on the sets of a new movie.
Steven Spielberg
"Fear is what drives me. Every movie is scary for me and every day I shoot the movie is scary. And I need fear because it drives me to explore things. It keeps me looking for a new variation on constant themes," femalefirst.co.uk quoted Spielberg as saying.
However he admits he did not struggle with working with horses on his new movie "War Horse" which is about a boy whose beloved pet is sold by his father.

Fish Burgers With Fresh Herbs
Recipe by French Tart
A light supper dish made from left overs! I had fish and mashed potatoes left after a lovely lunch - so, I decided to make one of our favourite comfort food dishes, fish cakes.......I added a few fresh herbs from the garden, a toasted bun, tartare sauce, lettuce (also from the garden) and we had a delicious light supper! You could of course also have these fish cakes with a salad, chips (French fries) or a baked potato - but we love them served in the style of a fish burger!!
Top Review by dianegrapegrower
Very nice. Real, versatile, comfort food. Had difficult sticking my cakes together - had to put the beaten egg into the mixture instead of using as coating. And they still crumbled while eating as burgers - not sure why. But very tasty. Served with potato salad and tomato wedges on a warm spring evening. Thx for sharing.

Hello. Uhm, im in a long distance relationship for like 2 and a half months and i can say that its really hard. We never see each other. by the way im 16 turning to 17 (oct) and my boyfriend is 18 turning to 19 this coming June. our first month, everything is perfect, no misunderstanding, we're just happy all the time. we talk everyday using fb or Skype. we always spend 3-5 hours talking and talking. In our 2nd month, i feel like our relationship is starting to fall, we dont talk that much and sometimes, we have a misunderstanding. Thats because of our time and distance, he started to work and i feel like he dont have time for me. Yeah i love him and i can't deny it. The day of our second monthsary, we talked and since that day, we fixed and we tried to understand each other. he's aloof sometimes and he's the one who told me that but i noticed it. A while ago, we talk about the distance again.
(He knew that im impatient)
i told him that i can't afford to go to his place coz its too far and the plane ticket is expensive (we're like 9000 miles away) i told him that if i will go to his place, i will not stay long, i have to go back where i came from. and he said
"Why would you go back? It would be so hard to get back to the US again, Plus if you were going away again, i wouldn't do it in the first place"
(i live somewhere here in asia and he lives in the US)
.. i told him that i can't stay forever because im not a citizen there, and i told him
"only if i will get married there then it would be easy"
and he said
"yeah, i know, Its just I don't know if im ready for that."
i told him that im not forcing him , he's the one who will decide on it, he said
"were both young, i will be 20 next year and u will be 18 but okay, i will think about it"
i told him that im ready, just decide if he wants... (the condition is, when we get a marriage papers, we will not form a family, we will still treat each other bf/gf and not wife and husband, we have to work before we will form a family) .
.. what if he will say yes, what should i do? i feel ready but im not sure if i can handle my part if the time comes. what do you think? am i goig to marry him if he will say yes?
- yesVote A
- noVote B
Most Helpful Girl
So you're waiting for him to propose and then you will marry him?00|00|0
Uhm, maybe yes. Im not yet sure.

Dormant pruning, the most-important practice in vineyard management, is done after the vine has been bare for at least a month, between mid-December and bud break in March. Pruning too early impedes the absorption of the remaining nitrate nitrogen from the xylem fluid within the woody stems, needed for conversion into arginine for next season's growth. If a test cut in the vine does not emit any of this watery substance, the vine is dormant and ready to prune.Continue Reading
Fall-pruned grape vines are more-susceptible to winter injury than those not pruned. For best results, prune grape vines about a month before spring bud break. In areas where late frosts are frequent, protect vines by pruning near the end of the dormancy season, thereby slightly inhibiting early spring growth.
The principle behind pruning and training the grape vines is to create the best conditions for optimizing production potential by maintaining a balance between vegetative growth and fruiting. The wood removed in the pruning process makes the grape vines stronger and hardier and removes excess vegetation, creating a more-balanced vine. Effective vine-pruning also involves an understanding of what should be retained in the pruning process. Retained canes are those with less-persistent laterals, with a location on the outside of the vine canopy that exposes them to abundant sunlight. The canes exhibit good wood maturation, are 1/4- to 1/2-inch in diameter, have 4- to 6-inch inter-nodes, and are a rich, dark-brown color.
Hand tools used for grape vine-pruning typically include loppers, hand pruners and handsaws. It is essential to avoid injury to the plant by using the most-appropriate tool. A hand pruner is effective for year-old shoots, but a lopper or handsaw is needed for cutting larger vine wood.Learn more about Outdoor Plants & Flowers

#mothersday2015 #tackkthursday
My Mom is a hard worker who would do anything for my sister and I. She goes above and beyond everyday to make sure we have the best life possible. She drives my sister, Lexi, downtown every single day so she can go to a school with better advanced programs. My mom is constantly thinking about our futures. She drives me to volleyball several times a week and pays for it all. She says that we make her very proud, but also it is the other way around. My Mom is willing to help anyone. Which doesn't sound true but it really is. She treats all my friends and my sisters friends like there her own daughters. She treats everyone kindly no matter who it is and helps many people without them even asking. Shes sorta crazy but that's okay. I love my mom to death and even know we fight sometimes... I know she will always love me too! I cant imagine life without her... I wouldn't be 1/2 the person I am today with out her.
Happy Mothers Day!!!
I love you to Carol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -Madison your trouble maker

This is not an apologie
Wednesday, 20 June 2012
It's good just to go to bed for a couple of hours during daylight.
I've always loved my bed, not that I was a stay-in-bed-all-day type of teenager… but I did always want to go to bed early. And still do. Mostly.
Not to mention, if I don't get at least my 8 hours I'm quite capable of being the bitch-from-hell.
Now, in the days of laptops, there's just no stopping me sometimes. I could
waste wile away an afternoon reading blogs, stalking looking at peoples photos that I neither know nor have any real interest in on face book.. (you've all done it)
And do you know what? I don't even feel guilty about it. My life. My choices. My bed.

A nice Church…shame about The Rules
Over Jubilee weekend Mr D & I took Bertie the jeep out for a run. We decided to visit the lovely village of Dedham.
I liked the Jubilee flowers.
Mr D always likes to look in Church's even though he is not in the least bit religious, he loves to look out the architecture and read the history.
We wandered around the old graveyard, which always interests me.
When I got home I looked on the Church's website & found some rules about the tributes…
The following is copied from the website…
Only real flowers are permitted. These should be placed on the grave without paper, cellophane or plastic wrapping. The exceptions to this "real flowers" rule are poppies in November, and Advent wreaths nearer to Christmas, and these should be removed within a month of them being placed on the grave
For safety reasons the only kind of flower vases permitted are those made of stone or metal. Where these are not an integral part of a stone memorial then separate permission for them must be obtained. Glass and plastic vases will be removed.
No other kinds of ornament are permitted on any grave in our country churchyard. Thus toys, balloons, candles, lights, pictures or garden ornaments (all of which have been placed in our churchyard in recent years) will be removed. If this causes offence, please try to appreciate that the grave you tend is not in a private space such as a garden, but in a public space; one which has to be maintained safely and in a way that pleases the many other people who must share the space with you. This is why there are churchyard regulations, and also why I have given instruction for them to be maintained.
Although I can understand they don't want the churchyard to look like an advert for some cheap garden ornament market stall, reading it still made me a bit sad.

Signs of Summer & what's not to miss
This past week the hose pipe ban was lifted. The people that must be obeyed decided that a month of on and off torrential rain would do for now. So then the sun came out. Just for a little while.
Mr D & I BBQ'd one evening. Lit the wood burner & I has some Pimms
It was so nice it got me to thinking about this year, this summer & how much of a changed woman I feel.
I thought I'd share with you what's not to miss about working in my previous role serving the good old general public, by way of giving you some hints about how not to behave as a customer.
Please don't…. Move the sign/chairs/general barricade that has been put in your way before the shop is open to stop you from walking over the floor that is being cleaned! Yes see that girl with the mop? She's not ready! That sign on the window? That says Closed!!
Please don't…..Walk in and assume you can jump the ten person deep queue by sneaking around the the other end of the counter and trying to catch the eye of the new girl who hasn't got her confidence up yet to tell you that there's a queue! So join it!!
Please don't….spend the few minutes while you've been waiting your turn gossiping to your friend then realise you don't haven't a clue what you want…there are other people waiting to be served!
Please don't…. keep talking on your mobile phone when the girl is trying to figure out by your hand gestures what it is you want. Hang up! It's just rude!
Please don't…. tell the girl how she should make a coffee/ice cream because that's how they do it in Italy/America. You are in England. If they make it so good over there, don't let the door smack you on the arse on the way out!
Please don't….let your child run riot around the shop, see that sign? It says Children are not allowed to play on the stairs..or go into the kitchen. That girl with the big heavy bucket? That's going to land on your precious child's head if you don't get control!
Please don't…..ask where the milk is when you are brought your cups of coffee. Only two hands………
Please don't…..walk in at 5 to closing, order something and settle down for the night.
I'm quite fussy when I go into a shop/cafe about customer service, but having been on the other side of the counter I do feel for the poor staff running around.
As summer is approaching, I'm often asked if I regret changing my job.
Although there were obviously things I loved about it or I wouldn't have stayed for 8 yrs, the bottom line is that no. I don't regret it. I might do a post about my new job ( s ) soon and how they have changed my lifestyle…

Lament. Book Review No. 14!

Festival Footwear
This weekend saw Mr D & I at a small local music festival where the boys made an appearance.
Festival? You don't have to ask me twice, any excuse to get the wellies out.
My pink Hunters were half price so no turning noses up at the brightness.
With it being an out doorsie gig, I managed to get some half decent photos of the boys themselves with my big girls camera. All you bloggers with ambition to be fabulous photographers (don't lie) will feel my pain when it comes to low light fast moving photography!
They certainly were high energy
And a bonus that the event had its own sound man giving Mr D time to spend with wifey
Don't let the lovely sunny pics fool you. It has rained for two days straight. Funny there's been no mention of the hose pipe ban lately. Wondering what would happen if one was to break it? Jail time?
I'm off to bed now, with my book and my teddy bear.
Nighty Night.

Happy Day
Back from Yorkshire with a Land Rover full of treasure. Oh how Mr D would be glad he took the roof rack off, or there would really have been no stopping this girl.
Today has been spent in the garden, taking pictures and sorting treasure. One of my favourite past times, along with reading.
See that lovely skirt I have on? My lovely bloggy friend made it from a Vintage Pillow case. It came all.the.way from Australia. Proof to Mr D that they are real. Bloggy friends that is. Because sometimes he has been known to question. How cool is that. To see more about it hop on over to My Other Blog.
Mr D & I have started to feed the birdies. We have tried in the past but they didn't really want to know us. Now we have a secret weapon which is Suet Pellets. And Fat Balls. They are now our very best friends.
So now I'm like a regular Disney Princess. They'll be cleaning my house and mending my clothes before you can say
PS. Yes Brunty Bear is with me in the garden. So section me.

Salisbury City Hall
THE last show of a 53-date tour finally found its way to The City Hall on Sunday night, with the Eels' frontman 'E' telling the crowd that "anything is possible, and even a loser like me can play to beautiful people like you in a beautiful place like this".
The show itself was one of true beauty and was made extra special by 'E' walking along the central aisle giving members of the audience heartfelt hugs.
Mistakes of My Youth was a stand-out track from a set list of old and new numbers. It was clear the band enjoyed playing the City Hall, so let's see more recognised touring bands here in the future.

If your reaction to the announcement of a sequel to A Link to the Past was anything like mine, you probably thought it would be a decent Zelda game. But at the same time, that it would in no way surpass the level of perfection on display in its predecessor. How could it? A Link to the Past is the Zelda game. although more recent entries like Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask are wonderful in their own way, nothing could possibly beat the SNES classic's incredible dungeon design, nor its masterful pacing. Yet somehow, A Link Between Worlds does just that. Continue Reading

With Mario stepping to the side for what Nintendo is calling "The year of Luigi", Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon is — in theory — the perfect opening for everyone's favorite green-wearing underdog. With its predecessor being such a beloved cult classic, could a portable rendition with a significant amount of both gameplay and progression changes do anything for fans of the GameCube launch title?

Household water varies greatly in temperature due to variable settings. Most people do not think too much about the temperature of their water supply, However, certain guidelines should be followed to achieve adequate temperatures.
Ideal Temperatures
The ideal temperature for household hot water is 120 degrees Fahrenheit, while the tank itself should be around 130 degrees F. These temperatures are hot enough to kill any bacteria that may be lurking in the system while releasing water cool enough to not scald the skin.
Temperature Variations
Test the temperature of the water at a faucet with a thermometer. Check the systems manual on instructions for changing the temperature on the thermostat, because each system is different.
Some sanitary fixtures have a tempering valve that allows the system to heat water to higher temperatures while reducing the temperature for basins, baths and showers. This means appliances such as dishwashers will produce high temperatures for efficient cleaning, but water in other areas of the home will not reach scalding temperatures.
