Or you could just be funny?
Have an opinion?
Or she thinks you could be a great friend. Just because she's laughing doesn't necessarily mean she like likes you
Not bad. Girls typically never say I'm hot. Most if they think I'm attractive think I'm cute. If they laugh at everything you say even when you say some really corny shit then that's a sign they might like you. Though that's not enough to know for sure.

"Rivers and snow. Such things, they make my heart go. Blackbirds, whispering trees. White horses and grass so green. Oh, this place is home." - Tales of Olde

His bandmates are from West Texas and East Tennessee and New England and all over. Their songs speak truth to those who are headed home, whether that is back down South or up in the heavens for all eternity.

|"%2F" problems
|Fri, 16 Sep 2011 21:40:28 GMT
I am trying to replicate a couch database from one Windows machine to another. Replication halts with an error when it gets to an attachment of the design document. The error message in the (local) log file just before the stack dump says [Fri, 16 Sep 2011 21:22:57 GMT] [error] [<0.813.0>] streaming att. ended but more data requested {1316,208177,498001} [Fri, 16 Sep 2011 21:22:57 GMT] [info] [<0.813.0>] request for "_design%2Fbasic/docs.html" timed out, retrying in 0.5 seconds The replication was started by sending a POST to the local machine; I am using pull replication from a remote source to the local target. Admins are set up on the local machine, and I provided the admin credentials both as part of the URL starting the replication and as part of the target URL. When I use "curl" from the command line on the local machine to request a file from the remote machine, the command curl [REMOTEDB]/_design%2Fbasic/docs.html returns nothing, while the command curl [REMOTEDB]/_design/basic/docs.html returns the correct file. Clearly, there is something about the encoding of a forward slash as a "%2F" that is confusing both me and at least one of the couch instances involved in this attempt at replication. Can someone tell me [1] what is the underlying source of the problem? and [2] how do I persuade couch to just replicate the design documents properly? Thanks, Kevin

Wallabies great Joe Roff was 26 years old and at the height of his rugby powers when he packed his life into a backpack and disappeared into "normal life" as a tourist taking in sights around Europe.
Six months later he was back at the ACT Brumbies, went on to play in a World Cup final and then won a Super Rugby title to end his Australian rugby career as a champion.
Roff, who was one of the world's best wingers, knows better than anyone about what David Pocock is getting himself into after signing a flexible contract with the Brumbies and ARU this week to take a sabbatical next year before returning in 2018 and 2019.
It's a groundbreaking deal for Australian rugby, and Roff, Brumbies coach Stephen Larkham and Wallabies mentor Michael Cheika are unequivocal in their belief that the break will extend Pocock's career, make him a better person and boost his world-class rugby prowess.
"For someone like 'Poey', you find that you just get defined as a rugby player. Not everyone wants that. To step away and be defined in a different way is good for your mind, body and self identity," Roff said.
"You can go around the world and rugby is just one thing people do. We know Poey is so much more than just a rugby player and when you step away, no one defines you as a rugby player.
"It's not about doing nothing, sleeping in and watching daytime television. It's about doing something different, and that's the key."
Pocock and the Brumbies will play the Cape Town Stormers in South Africa on Sunday morning. It comes days after the superstar flanker finalised his future with a unique contract that is set to see him take up study opportunities and potentially a brief playing stint in Japan.
Pocock, 27, first raised the idea of a sabbatical to the Brumbies in December, but says he hasn't decided on how he will spend his time away from the game.
For the most part it's about stepping away to refresh mentally and physically after more than a decade of playing professionally.
Two career-threatening knee reconstructions in 2013 and 2014 took a mental and emotional toll on the former Wallabies captain.
He considered quitting the game altogether as one option. But the fire still burns to chase Super Rugby and international success when he makes a comeback.
Pocock is studying ecological agriculture through Charles Sturt University. He is a campaigner for environmental issues, same-sex marriage, is a co-founder for the Eightytwenty Vision that assists communities in Zimbabwe, and is a patron for the Save African Rhino Foundation.
When he took a stance against homophobic slurs during a Super Rugby game last year, some people turned it into an issue about what should be left on the field. Their view was tainted by Pocock's boots and jersey.
His fear was that his sporting role overshadowed the real issue. But when he steps away from the game, he will be in a different light.
"Doing more than one subject at uni a semester will be a good change, and then I'll see what I can fit in around that," Pocock said.
"Professional sport demands huge amounts physically, mentally and emotionally. I kind of feel like this little break will allow me to continue the enjoyment. It comes back to enjoyment and knowing why you play the game."
Pocock's 12-month absence will leave a sizeable hole in the Brumbies roster that they'll have to temporarily fill.
It's something the club considered through the negotiation process, and were willing to take a hit in 2017 knowing Pocock would be back bigger and better after his break.
It has helped keep one of the world's best players in Australian rugby rather than losing him to retirement or a rich overseas club offering a new experience in a different country.
The Brumbies and Australian rugby are well aware sabbaticals don't suit every player. Some would enjoy not having to stay fit and play every week.
But after seeing Pocock train with anti-poaching scouts in Zimbabwe last year and makeshift gyms while on holidays, Brumbies coach Stephen Larkham has no doubt Pocock's talents won't drop away.
"A lot of thought had to go into his decision, he just needed a break from the pressures of high-performance rugby," Larkham said.
"Poey's got no plans at this stage, there are a few options but he hasn't made a decision if he's going to play rugby at all or just get a break and pursue other interests.
"Sabbaticals are 100 per cent dependent on the person taking them. Someone like Poey, who's been through a bit over the last four or five years, it's probably good to get away.
"Other people maybe need just a smaller period of time to freshen up. Poey has taken this route, and I think it's the right one for him."
Sabbaticals work differently for individuals. Former NSW Waratahs lock Dan Vickerman walked away from his Wallabies career to spend three years studying at Cambridge before returning for the 2011 World Cup.
New Zealand let Richie McCaw and Dan Carter take separate breaks in recent years, and they returned to spearhead the All Blacks to World Cup glory last year.
Roff went to France to play with Biarritz after leaving the Brumbies following the club's first Super Rugby title in 2001.
Roff was criticised by the French coaching staff for not performing at the high level he set in 72 Tests for Australia, and then-Biarritz coach Laurent Rodriguez said: "It is time that Joe Roff put an end to his holiday in France."
The next month Roff scored 17 points in a 25-22 win against Agen to lead Biarritz to its first French title in 56 years before turning to back-packer life.
"I just needed a mental break for myself at the time. Poey's not going to lose anything having a year out of the game, he's going to come back fresher and more motivated," Roff said. "The fact Poey has indicated he wants to come back to the Wallabies and Brumbies shows the fire is still there.
"When I decided on a sabbatical was around the same time I was pulling on the boots for pre-season training and I was just going through the motions. That can be dangerous.
"I had one year left on a contract in Japan [with Kubota] at the end of my career but decided to have two years studying at Oxford, and that was magic. Whatever Poey decides to do, it will be something that rounds him out as a person. We already know he's not defined just as a football player."
Cheika was the Waratahs coach when Pocock took a stance against homophobia in sport when slurs were used during a Brumbies' clash against NSW last year.
He teamed up with Pocock for the first time last year in Wallabies camp.
"And I just saw his willingness to want to improve, both on and off the field. Be a better man and a better person, it's pretty contagious," Cheika said.
"David's very clear on what he wants to get out of his life, and when that happens it makes it very easy to make good decisions.
"It makes you interested in the person, and that's what we're trying to build [in the Wallabies]. We want players representing Australia that have good character. David certainly has that."
Sunday: Cape Town Stormers v ACT Brumbies at Newlands, Cape Town, 4.15am. TV time: Live on Fox Sports 2.
Brumbies team: 15. Aidan Toua, 14. Henry Speight, 13. Tevita Kuridrani, 12. Matt Toomua, 11. Joseph Tomane, 10. Christian Lealiifano, 9. Tomas Cubelli, 8. Jarrad Butler, 7. David Pocock, 6.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
Child support order was modified this year, now mother states her expenses have changed. So now she filed for another modification this November. How many times can she have the order modified. I was told it can only be modified once every 2 years.
Please go to this site frim NYS and you will have many of your questions answered. Whenever circumstances change, a custodial or no-custodial parent can apply for a modification. The key will be, at some, point, whether it is being done in good faith. With regard to your two-year question, I think the site answers this as well--
"Modification of Child Support Orders
Either parent or the CSEU can file a petition in Family Court to request a modification (change) to an existing child support order. The modification petition should be based on the fact that either the custodial or noncustodial parent's circumstances have materially changed (e.g., change in income or other changes in circumstances).
Cost of Living Adjustment
Every two years the child support agency automatically reviews each child support order to determine cost of living increases. If the cost of living has increased by more than ten percent since the order was made or since the last review, the child support order amount will increase by the amount of the change in the cost of living. The cost of living adjustments can be made without going to court. For non-temporary assistance or non-safety net cases, a notice is sent to both parents when a case is eligible for a cost of living adjustment, and either parent may request the adjustment. "

Those loveable and laughable 3 Stooges are back for more in this video game version of the popular computer game.
Guide each of the stooges through a variety of obstacle courses and reflex testers to gather money and pay off the mean old land lord who holds the mortgage on the orphanage!
Superb animated intermissions from the movies, as well as the digitized voices of Moe, Larry and Curly make the 3 Stooges as fun to watch as it is to play!
People say:
3 Stooges is one game made up of several 'mini-games', none of which are complex or action-packed. Most are simple obstacle courses, with pay checks cashed depending on how well you do in each. Not a lot of excitement, but the graphics and sounds are absolutely incredible and worth a look.
3 Stooges is oriented to an older crowd that can appreciate the slapstick humor. For us older gamers this game is a riot, with non-stop laughs and entertainment. The digitized graphics are exceptional and the sound effects are the best in any Nintendo game released.
There's not much game here, but there are some interesting scenes that unfortunately don't change from round to round. The voice effects, of course, are what you notice first. The stooges do look and sound like the stooges but the game is just too shallow to hold up to repeated play.
3 Stooges is O.K., but it's not a great game. The full screen graphics are very detailed and humorous, but the rest of the game graphics are poorly done. It seems like most of the attention was put on the graphic pictures and sounds and none on the game characters or play.

Racing Engineering car made contact with the nose of the Caterham car of Rossi causing damage to the sidepod and the turning vane.
Once again the weather at the Sakhir circuit was very hot for the 23 lap Feature Race with an air temperature of 30° and a track temperature of 42° and all the drivers were starting on the harder Pirelli compound.
Following yesterday's race win Fabio Leimer was starting from 8th on the reversed grid with Julián Leal in 19th.
The young Swiss then held position for the rest of the lap to cross the finishing line 0.7 seconds behind Nasr and 0.3 seconds ahead of Calado. Fabio now began to close on Quaife-Hobbs and on lap 5 the gap was 0.4 seconds and he was now being chased by Palmer who had passed Calado.
By lap 7 there was a very close battle for 5th between Quaife-Hobbs, Fabio and Palmer with just one second between the three cars, Fabio was still looking for a way to pass Quaife-Hobbs but he had to be careful not to leave an opening for Palmer.
The gaps between the three drivers began to slowly open out and by lap 13 Fabio was 1.4 seconds behind Quaife-Hobbs and 2.8 seconds ahead of Calado.
With 5 laps remaining Fabio had closed onto the tail of Quaife-Hobbs and was putting the MP Motorsport under increasing pressure but once again Palmer was right behind him and on lap 19 he lost places to Palmer and Calado dropping to 8th.
With two laps to go Leimer was now battling with Abt but the Racing Engineering car was now right behind Palmer however, with his front tyres now badly worn, he was unable to keep Abt behind him and he lost the position to drop to 9th which was where he finished.
Julián got away well at the start but contact in the first corner between two cars caused the Racing Engineering driver to run wide and lose several places dropping to 19th at the end of the first lap. On the second lap Julián lost a place to Evans but on the following lap he passed De Jong to regain 19th.
The young Columbian was now battling with Frijns and he dropped to 20th on lap 6 but once again he moved back up to 19th when he made a good overtaking manoeuvre on Berthon five laps later.
Julián quickly pulled away from Berthon and was now looking to close on Evans who was 0.6 seconds ahead with eight laps still remaining. Julián was now involved in a fight with Frijns, Richelmi and Evans and on lap 17 he passed Frijns place and he was now right on the gearbox of Evans.
For the remaining laps Julián continued to chase the Arden car and he completed the 23 laps in 16th place, just 0.7 seconds behind Evans.
Thomas Couyotopoulo, Sporting Director of Racing Engineering: "Disappointing results in race 2 today. In the end we could not score any points, even if both drivers have made good starts.
But unfortunately Julian lost positions with the accident in turn 1 and Fabio's start was directly affected by the contact with Rossi, which damaged his car and affected the rest of his race, not allowing him to perform with a standard car.
Having said this, the pace of the cars around him was very similar today and there was no big time difference. We will look into it in detail to see what has happened during this race. We will be busy now and work hard to prepare the next round taking place in Barcelona."
Fabio Leimer: "It was a hard race today. I actually had a quite good start and my plan was to go to the outside, but when there was no space I went to the inside of turn 1. In the end it wasn't too bad a decision as I was already ahead of Palmer and Rossi. But then unfortunately Palmer hit Rossi, who lost control of his car and hit the side of my car.
So in the end his front wing went into my sidepod and it stayed there for the rest of the race, which greatly affected the car in high speed corners, where I suffered from quite a lot of vibration and turbulence. It was really, really hard as I had this problem with the wing, but also tried to save tyres. In the end we missed the points only by one position, but we can actually be happy I was able to finish the race like this."
Julián Leal: "I think today there was no big difference between all the cars. At the start, things went quite well until turn 1, where someone crashed. In order to avoid a collision, I had to go wide in turn 1 and lost some positions. After that I fought a bit during the first laps, which put some pressure on the rear tyres.
I kept the pace and cooled down the rear tyres as I could not push at that time. So I was saving tyres and towards the end the car was quite good and I could attack again. The tyres started to work again and I overtook several cars.
I think the pace was quite good, but when you start from so far back, it's not easy. I think we paid the price for my mistake from yesterday. I have to be more concentrated and focussed in race 1, which will allow me to have a better starting position in the Sunday races."

Mr Doris (We Love / Space, Ibiza / Bang Records)
After a 10 month hiatias Break da House re-launches it monthly breaks, electro & eclectic beats night at our previous & much loved venue Dusk Till Dawn, Bournemouth where we resided for the best part of 2 years between 2005 - 2007. Over the summer we've put on some great parties, with our 4th birthday & the party in the villa some of the higlights. But we felt it was time to gt back to running monthly again as we've missed doing our monthly parties. So with this very fact in mind we give you... The Break da House Halloween ball!!!
We've been very lucky indeed in the fact that we've managed to book one of our favorite breaks dj's on the plannet (if not our fave) all the way from Melbourne, Australia Mr NICK THAYER... Nick first played for us last year as part of the 2020Rocks series which we co-promoted. We were some impressed with him we jumped at the chance to get him back again. Since then he's released a new ablum on Aquasky's Passenger label, toured extensively across Usa, Canada, Aus & Europe & has ended up at Dusk Till Dawn on Halloween with us!
Also for the VERY FIRST TIME all the Break da House residents are playing on the same night. MR DORIS is back from a summer rocking Ibiza where he held down residencies for We Love & Carl Cox & friends at the world best club, Space Ibiza. BEN LOGUE has come out of semi retirement (well not really but seems like it!) to play a rare set outside his Speakeasy sessions. As always d*FUNK & LEE NAZARI will be residing over proceedings alongside BdH new kid on the block DR FISH & dtd legend BILLY CASPER...
See you at the front....

What are you looking to do?
I have used a variety of software inventory solutions ranging from 100K setups to free, and this is a phenominal product. Maybe you were looking for something else? Or do you have a more specific question we can help you with?
Aug 18, 2008 at 11:15 UTC
Spiceworks is an excellent tool for Network admins, IT Managers, and help desk tech's among others. This program lets me sleep at night knowing that if something goes wrong Spiceworks will let me know. The program (the way I use it) is like robot that crawls around the network looking for problems and calls me if it finds anything. When I first got the program I thought the same thing. Try looking at the tutorials. They helped me understand it and I am sure you will get a good idea on what Spiceworks is all about.

Either from guys you have (or someone else you know has) dated or asked out by...what made this guy "boring", "stale" or "unexciting" that turned you off attraction-wise?
What did this guy do or not do, say or not say, that made you classify him this way (whether you actually dated him or not)?
Could he have done or not done, or say or not say, something that would've immediately make him desirable to you (or at least give him more of a chance)?
Please be detailed (giving examples if you want) so we can understand your reasoning and knowledge! 8-)
Most Helpful Girl
Someone who gives me one word answers to everything would be a huge turn-off. "How's school going?" "Alright." "How's your band? Have you had any gigs this week?" "Yeah." Ugh, that's terrible.
Someone who either never wants to leave the house or never wants to stay home. Take me out once in awhile! Girls want to be shown off, it makes us feel proud and it totally boosts our confidence. However, I don't want to go out to a party seven times a week. It's totally fine to stay home and relax sometimes.
A guy who can never stop talking about work. Before my parents split, my dad would come home and talk for hours at a time about how much he hated this client at work, or how terrible his boss was that day, or how annoying the girl across the hall is. It gets old VERY fast.
Someone who always has a negative attitude. We all have bad days. But seriously, when every single day of your life is "awful", it won't last long. I need someone with a positive attitude and the motivation to make the bad days as good as they can be.
Hope this helps. :)43|11|0

MEG Energy provides an update to its 2014 capital program and outlined its 2015 capital investment plan and production guidance.
2014 Capital Investment Update
MEG expects to invest approximately $1.2 billion in 2014, a reduction of 31% from its original 2014 budget of $1.8 billion, which included $200 million in discretionary spending. The lower level of 2014 capital spending was driven primarily through cost savings captured due to a change in emphasis from major greenfield projects to incremental brownfield expansions of existing facilities, as well as a shift in timing associated with longer-term projects.
2015 Capital Investment
"Our 2015 capital program is illustrative of MEG's ability to adapt to the current market conditions while still delivering meaningful growth," said Bill McCaffrey, President and Chief Executive Officer. "With only twenty per cent of our budget required to maintain our current level of production, we have significant flexibility within our plans should we need to further respond to the market environment."

Bending a Bore Through Iron
I'm picking up a set of 1985 Wilson Staff Tour Blades on Friday and they have the bore through hosel. Will bending them be an issue? I'm looking to go about 4* flat from the factory specs. A little flatter than the Hogans I'm playing right now.

|Hello post from yours truly.
Camp stuff:
Andrew Stueber had an old-fashioned sort of recruitment: he camped for an offer (twice), got one, and immediately committed. Back in the day this was usually a good sign, because up-close evaluations were often more revealing than recruiting rankings still based largely off highlight reels and absurd physical claims. As things crept into the late Carr era and a… less enthusiastic coaching staff started to rely too heavily on camp, guys who committed at one flamed out at increasingly prodigious rates.
The lack of camp guys in Michigan's recruiting classes of late should restore faith in the guys who do come out of nowhere to claim spots. Steve Lorenz:
He's actually a relatively polished prospect who could very easily see the field in his second season in Ann Arbor if he puts in the work. … Michigan took Stueber knowing full well where they sit with a plethora of tackle targets. They evaluated him twice in person. … it says something when they not only offer Stueber, but take him almost immediately.
Also the fact that the two camp offers—Benjamin St Juste is the other—flew up to four star territory, or at least the edge of it, afterwards.
Stueber did not start there. He was ranked like a new-era Michigan State recruit when he committed: 1485th on 247. By the time I wrote him up he'd already moved up several hundred spots, but was still a virtual nobody. ESPN had nothing on him; he was a generic three star at Scout and Rivals.
This isn't a huge surprise for a player from Connecticut, a barely scouted state. If anyone laid eyes on Stueber it was a different prospect entirely. Stueber went from a 320 pound sophomore to a 280 pound junior, with the usual results:
"My strength is improving, I definitely feel better as a player. I can get off the ball faster and I feel like a better player when I'm faster."
He proved that at Michigan's big man camp, where he won four of five agility/explosiveness events.
Stueber went from some lower-level and Ivy offers to a suite of regional/academic suitors (Maryland, UNC, Pitt, Duke, Vandy) and Penn State, which was actually first off the mark with a shrewd, if ultimately unsuccessful, courtship. This wasn't their fault, really. Stueber had already made up his mind:
ANN ARBOR - Andrew Stueber was a freshman when he targeted Michigan.
He was just one year removed from his first season of competitive football and admittedly a raw prospect, but felt Michigan was his ideal future home - despite being an East Coast prospect with no ties to the Wolverines.
"I picked them out in the beginning as the school I really liked academically and football-wise," Stueber said. "That's what my parents always told me about - you've got to plan for the future and I think Michigan does a great job of that academically."
If this sounds like a Harbaugh kind of guy, yep:
"I don't mind working for my offer. I had some offers that were just over the phone, I had some that were in-person over my visit, but the fact that I had to work for my offer at Michigan was something that I like.
"I don't like anything coming easy. I know it takes a lot of work to get your offer so it just made me more intrigued that I would have to work for my time there and it kind of set the tone for that school and that offer."
Hand in glove.
Once Stueber committed, recruiting sites started catching up. Three of the four would eventually offer four stars, with Rivals the lone holdout. And even though Rivals didn't bother with a rerank their regional analyst talked him up anyway:
"excellent frame. Even though he's over 300 pounds he doesn't have much bad weight on him. There's still a lot of room left to fill out his frame … moves really well. He's a great bender and is a very athletic guy … very good run blocker because he also does a good job level keeping his balance when moving forward. … great wingspan and that's helped him a lot in pass protection. …could easily play at 320 or 330 and still be an athletic guy."
That sounds like a top 100 eval, but he's the #74 OT in the country. Rivals shruggie dot emoji. Other evals accompanying much higher rankings are actually less effusive. Still good, but not that good. ESPN:
Tall with good bulk and big, lengthy frame … good arm length to be able to push rushers past the pocket. Doesn't display a real powerful punch. Flashes effective kick-step … can set too high and open too quickly at times. … adequate balance and lateral quickness … Big body that can engulf defenders and control and steer them when he gets hands on, … Limited range, but locates well with good balance. … big fish in a smaller pond.
…engulfs defensive linemen … quick off the snap, has a tremendous burst and is strong with his initial punch. … drives his legs well while maintaining engaged on the defender. He can scrape and get to the linebackers quickly, and he has the body control to make the block. … needs to improve his pass protection. … needs to widen his base and sit back more. … needs to work on his kick step. … natural right tackle, but he could develop into a left tackle.
"very athletic … possesses great initial quickness. We love his athleticism. He has a great frame and going to put the right kind of weight on … will play with great strength and can be a force for us."
The more athletic version of Stueber started bubbling up the rankings. Scout said he was "already technically sound" and that his improved athleticism warranted a 16-spot jump in the position rankings; ESPN and 24/7 both moved him up to low four-star range as well. Like Khaleke Hudson last year, I shook my fist at these changes for removing a slam dunk from the "sleeper of the year" pool, which is restricted to guys with at most one four-star ranking.
Even after the rerankings, if you poke Steve Lorenz in his sleep he mutters something along these lines:
Will beat his ranking: Andrew Stueber. This one is relatively easy for me. …we've reported for months that the staff believes he could potentially contribute in year one. … Fans should maybe start looking at Stueber in a similar light to some recent versatile OL the staff has recruited like Ben Bredeson and Mason Cole.
Elsewhere he picked Stueber out as Michigan's "most college-ready" OL commit—this was pre-Filiaga but when Kai-Leon Herbert was in the class. This despite the fact that he's pretty young. He was just 16 when he committed a year ago; he'll just be turning 18 around when fall camp starts. That further enhances some already promising upside and provides an easel on which his high school coach paints a hell of a picture:
…he still has three or four years of physical maturity that will turn him into a monster. … Andrew is unusually strong for his size. Usually a 16-year old kid who's that big can be a little awkward and a little weak. They are as big as a house but they are weak and haven't put it together yet — not this kid. He can squat 450, he can bench press 275 with extremely long arms. Coaches love that about him, by the way. And he also cleans about 240 and that's the measure of athleticism.
"So if you take those numbers and fast-forward three years from now, oh my God."
Early returns agree. Stueber didn't enroll early but has been on campus for a couple months doing summer conditioning. As you might remember from the Honigford profile, both he and Chuck Filiaga rate as "huge dudes" to John Runyan while Honigford checks in as "pretty big, too."
Etc.: Got nothin'.
Why Taylor Lewan? Lewan was another late rising OT from a state that doesn't get much attention—in his case Arizona—with the height, strength, and arm length to project to left tackle at a high level. Lewan rose more quickly, becoming a consensus four star, but stayed outside of everyone's top 100s. Lewan did field more praise about his upside than Stueber, who is not likely to become an All Pro NFL tackle. Because that's not likely for anyone.
Fellow huge dude Ben Braden is another potential comparable, if Stueber only sort of works out and ends up stiffer than is ideal.
Guru Reliability: Moderate. Stueber was at least afforded the courtesy of a re-rank from three of the four sites and his rankings are more in line with his potential than Honigford. Still: OL against questionable competition.
Variance: Moderate. OL, questionable competition, but of all of Michigan's OT candidates he's the closest to a finished product physically.
Ceiling: Very high. Could be an ideal left tackle at this level and maybe the next.
General Excitement Level: High. Lorenz's chatter is coming from folks close to the program and is a reliable proxy for the opinios of the coaches; I'd bet they think Stueber is the best of the tackle prospects they brought in.
Projection: Will have a shot at the right tackle job immediately and is the most likely freshman to wrest it away from Runyan. The other guys are too small or too big; Stueber is just right. The bet here is still on Runyan, which then creates a bit of a redshirt dilemma: obviously you'd like to preserve a fifth year for a high upside tackle, but if Stueber is the #6 or #7 guy that might be tough to accomplish.
As for the rest of his career, see the Hall and Honigford profiles: big opportunity next year for anyone tackle-shaped when Mason Cole graduates. The winner of that battle is going to be a 3 or 4 year starter. The losers of it will have to wait two more years for anyone to depart. I'd give Stueber the slight edge in that race.
Report: Michigan Hires Hoops Assistant DeAndre Haynes
The Michigan Insider's Josh Henschke got the scoop last night on Michigan's assistant coaching search: John Beilein has reportedly hired Illinois State assistant DeAndre Haynes for one of the two open spots. Haynes hasn't actually coached for ISU; he was hired there in May, and Beilein obviously coveted him if he was willing to put another program into such a tough spot.
When Billy Donlon departed, multiple hoops insiders mentioned that Beilein would try to fill the two open spots with an experienced coach and a younger up-and-comer. Haynes fits the latter bill with the added benefit of being a local guy. A standout point guard at Detroit Southwestern, he went on to be a four-year starter for Kent State and won MAC player of the year as a senior. He left KSU as their all-time leader in assists and steals before spending six season playing pro ball overseas.
After his playing career, Haynes returned to Kent State as an assistant in 2012, spending four seasons in that role before taking the same position on Toledo's bench last season when the Rockets offered a contract he couldn't turn down after he'd previously passed on opportunities to leave his alma mater. He's coached under a couple successful mid-major coaches in Tod Kowalczyk and Rob Senderoff.
ISU planned to have Haynes focus on coaching their guards, and he could have a similar role at Michigan. The other assistant coach spot remains open. Director of Player Personnel Chris Hunter will presumably continue to serve as an interim assistant with permission to recruit until that spot is filled.
Haynes may not be a big name, but he's about the same age as LaVall Jordan and Bacari Alexander were when Beilein hired that pair. That worked out alright.
Ann Arbor City Council Endorsements: Part I
I quit playing video games so much this summer and I have definitely not improved my life by reading a bunch of MLive stuff. To my horror, it dawned on me that I was now a Person who had Opinions about Local Politics. The memorial service for my youth is scheduled for about five years ago.
I can think of no revenge better than trying to inflict this curse on others. I'll be less lonely during the next full moon if there are some dudes in "A More Perfect Union" T-shirts at the library as we have impassioned discussions about pedestrian safety. Also it's actually a very important time to get an opinion, city-wise.
But just in case here's a super super early jump.

|Hello post from Ace.
Joel Honigford is this year's edition of Devin Bush, in that Michigan hired a new coach who must have gone "yowza!" when he checked out the recruits he was inheriting. Bush is the perfect dreadlocked missile for Don Brown's linebacker corps; Honigford is the kind of athletic jumbo tight end who Greg Frey has consistently turned into NFL linemen. (JaRaymond Hall is also in this category.) Lorenz asserted that he "fits Greg Frey's body type to a tee."
Honigford popped up as a frame to hang muscle on. Scout noticed him at a big man camp, praising his "great frame" and "bright looking future." He then proceeded to hang muscle on his frame. After his commitment to Michigan last summer he talked about where he was, and where he's going:
"A little over a year ago, I only weighed 240 lbs. and had one scholarship offer. … I have a great frame that I can continue to build weight off of and I work hard every day already, so putting in the time isn't going to be a thing for me."
A year after checking in at 240 he was up to the mid-270s. Now a year removed from Honigford's commitment he reports a weight of 285 and looks like a before-and-after photo from an infomercial:
He says he's been in the weight room a lot. He appears to have taken the Swenson lesson to heart:
Colleges talk about how on your film they don't want to see you good one year and just a little bit better the next and just kind of plateauing," Honigford said. "That was a pretty big deal to me, so I made sure that didn't happen."
One dollar says Michigan was the coaching staff hammering this information home most fervently.
This is the kind of kid Frey turns into Taylor Lewan or Mike Schofield or Jason Spriggs, and Honigford has the upside of any of those NFL gentlemen. His coach was still talking up his future potential even after he'd shot up 40 pounds:
"I think they're getting a hell of a ballplayer," Wallick said. "Obviously, with that length - 6-6, 280 - that much bend and athleticism. He's got a lot of room to grow, a great frame to build on. They're not going to get anyone that's going to work harder in the weight room and on his footwork than he is."
He'd repeat that more or less verbatim to anyone who asked.
National scouts didn't have a take too far off from that—at least the ones who said anything. ESPN's evaluation touches on a lot of things you want to hear about an OL still on the way up:
Very good height … lean build … should be able to add the needed size … adequate initial quickness and shows good patience and balance in set, though at times can lunge and get top heavy. … good knee bend with enough lateral mobility to mirror rushers when gets hands on. … needs to add more mass to help him anchor against power. …good quickness and can come off with pad level, roll hips at contact …good balance and body control when asked to pull and work to second level and can locate and get a piece of targets. …promising upside. … don't see an early contributor.
Other evaluations are in a similar vein, down to the fact that they were almost certainly not revisited after Honigford's senior season. MSR Ohio:
…very athletic for his size. … Long and can, eventually, add 30 or more pounds to his frame and not miss a beat. Good bender. Excellent feet in pass pro from his left tackle position. Although mostly in a two point stance, Joel drive blocks well for his size. [ed: 240 at this juncture] Needs to get better, but he has a good "get-off."
…height and frame are legitimate. He's a good athlete with good overall coordination, balance and flexibility. …on the raw side as far as pass protection. … room to fill out and get stronger … probably a right tackle, possibly even an interior guy at the next level.
Overall, Honigford's maybe not as nasty or athletic as Taylor Lewan, but I would put him a notch or two below. I think he's someone who could play either tackle position, or he could be a pulling guard with some work. I like him as a blind-side pass protector, and he has good run-blocking skills.
Rivals did actually catch him as a senior and got a little overheated about him:
…solid top to bottom and has long, powerful arms …far bigger and stronger than any defender on the field but he also moved better than most as well. When he got out in front on screen plays or when he was asked to pull it was a sight to see. He runs very well, can change direction like a slot receiver, and absolutely punished people when he got his hands on them. Honigford's head coach said he could probably be a Division I tight end because of his natural athleticism and hands.
I'd still put my money on Eddie McDoom in a shuttle competition.
The main catch, other than weight-related uncertainty about what the finished product looks like, is Honigford's competition level. Dude is from Amish country and played in one of the lowest divisions of Ohio high school football:
"It's pretty surreal. … I guess a kid coming from where I do, such a small town, population of a little over 2,000 people, no one was expected to do what I am doing. My school, personally, has never had a Division I football player come out."
That's less of a big deal with OL, who are almost always absurdly overpowering in high school and await a severe reality check upon arriving in the realm of Rashan Gary and friends. It does make an already high amplitude guessing game a little less reliable.
On the other side of the ledger, Honigford racked up an impressive suite of offers for a relatively camp-averse kid out of Amish country. Most of those seem legit: he was thought to be favoring Oregon, Oklahoma had him out for a visit, Auburn made his top four. It's always tough to discern "offer" from OFFER but the list here belies his modest rankings even when surveyed with a jaundiced eye. Lorenz noted that…
One great indicator that Honigford is a top-level prospect is the fact that he plays in a tiny town and still got the nearly 30 offers that he did. That's not common.
…and Ohio State sites had several articles mentioning Honigford as a guy who usually would have been in their class:
…intriguing prospect and in most other years, he would have probably landed an offer already. It seems the staff is highest on him out of all of the other names on the board, as he is a guy who is really just starting to scratch the surface when it comes to his potential. … If I were a betting man, and had to pick a player to sign with OSU today, I would go with Honigford.
This is obviously a good news/bad news kind of thing since Honigford was pre-empted by an out of nowhere commit from big-timer Wyatt Davis. (FWIW, OSU did pick up an OL late when a spot opened up; Honigford had already signaled that the ship had sailed.)
Also in Honigford's corner are the ol' intangibles. He's a 3.9 student who took a lot of AP stuff and now plans to be a mechanical engineer. He was a three sport athlete in high school, which should mean yet unexplored upside when he focuses on one. He's a farm kid with Opinions About Barns.
Despite this post's general optimism about Honigford's future he is still the least likely member of Michigan's recruiting class to see the field early. Runyan's description of the three tackles who didn't enroll early is telling:
"The first thing that really jumps out (about) them is their size. Chuck – huge dude. Andrew – huge dude. And Joel's pretty big, too."
Meanwhile Hall had a spring practice that Honigford did not. Don't expect Honigford to hit the field running. In a couple years he could easily be the top tackle in this class.
Etc.: They call him Big Nasty. He was also his high school's kicker(!), going 30/40 on extra points. So… not a good kicker.
Why Mike Schofield? Schofield was an athletic tight end to slap weight on when Rich Rod and Greg Frey scooped him up. He entered at 6'6", 270-ish. That's more or less where Honigford finds himself. He also had a bit of a scouting gap between the end of serious evaluations at the end of his rising senior summer and the closer-to-finished product he'll enter college as. Schofield wasn't quite the talent Taylor Lewan was and mostly played RT as a result, but he was a third round pick and is still a starter with the Broncos.
Lewan is the other obvious comparison since he's the other "tall man needs weight" OT success story under Frey.
Guru Reliability: Low. Barely any camps, poor competition level, radically different weight through the evaluation period, OL.
Variance: High-minus. Could easily get overwhelmed but he's on the right track physically and should have the mental aspects down. OL.
Ceiling: High. Could easily develop into an NFL level tackle despite the rankings. Evaluations are a bit cautious about his lateral mobility.
General Excitement Level: High-minus. Hey, it's our (almost by default) Sleeper of the Year. Honigford gets the nod over his competitors by virtue of his ideal fit with Greg Frey and engineering inclinations at a spot where intelligence is very important.
Projection: Redshirt. Will compete for a starting tackle job next year as Cole departs; like Hall he's going to be fighting against his classmates, Runyan, and maybe Bredeson for two spots. I'd say he's got as good a chance as either of the yet-to-be profiled gents despite the rankings gap.

Big Ten Media Days Presser 7-25-17: Jim Harbaugh
[Isaiah Hole/247 Sports]
I wasn't there but I figured this would make for a good workday read since it took place during a workday. Have at it, you transcription junkie.
"Good afternoon. Wonderful to be here. Gotta come from behind the curtain. Can't enter from in front of the curtain, apparently. I can take questions."
Your team took a trip to Rome in April where they practiced and had many unique experiences mixed in. You said about the trip that it was the best thing you've been a part of on a football team and that not all learning is done in the classroom and not all learning is done on the football field. After this season you plan on taking a team trip to Paris, Normandy, and London. My question is can you expound on why the Rome trip was valuable and why trips in the future will be valuable to your football team?
"Yes. It's just incredible to connect with somebody from a different country, to see something that you've never seen before, taste food that you've never tasted or hear a language that you've never heard and then experience it as a team, like eighth grade classes that go to Washington D.C. for a field trip or a twelfth grade class the goes to Rome, much like that.
"To be able to experience it as a group makes it so much better, 900x better, because you're getting not only your own experience but everyone in the group's and it's a chance to put the 'college' back in 'college football.' It's a chance to have the whole world be your classroom. Not all learning is done in a classroom or on a football field. It's out there living, out there seeing and doing. I would recommend it because it has bee the best thing that I've ever done personally as a part of a football team."
Could you talk about Rashan Gary? I can't recall any D-lineman at Michigan having this much preseason hype since LaMarr Woodley. Talk about how Rashan has handled that and how high the ceiling is for this young man.
"Thank you, yes. Very interesting to see how Rashan has handled it. To me, I've watched it—was one of the top recruits, maybe the top recruit coming out of high school. He's had a lot of hype. He's had a lot of adulation. You know, there's some people that that's what they live for. They live for that approval of others and to be recognized as a hyped-up player and then there's other people that they see that hype or that adulation and they go by it like it's a cone, an orange cone, on the side of the road.
"There's some people that are just aspiring to greater things than just the adulation of somebody, and I think Rashan is that type of guy. You really like him. He really doesn't care too much about that. He's gone by it like it's a cone, an orange cone, on the side of the road. He just works, and I really think competing is his favorite thing to do. And he has the license and ability to be great, to be really good. I don't know what more to say about that."

PITTSBURGH -- Ben Roethlisberger has surprised his
Pittsburgh Steelers' teammates many times during his unbeaten
rookie season. He did so again Tuesday, announcing he'll donate his
first NFL playoff paycheck to the tsunami victims relief effort.
Even on a team that openly encourages its players to participate
in charity activities and community events, Roethlisberger's
$18,000 gesture before Saturday's Jets-Steelers game created a
positive stir.
"Wow, I didn't even know that," wide receiver Hines Ward said.
"Guys do a lot of different things in different ways that people
don't always hear about, but that's great -- that's for a great
cause, definitely. That's a big tragedy, and I hope everyone will
at least donate (something)."
Unlike the regular season, when each player earns a weekly share
of his base salary, playoff salaries are determined by the league's
collective bargaining agreement and each player is paid the same.
Roethlisberger, who is 13-0 as a rookie quarterback, hopes other
NFL players will follow his lead.
"I'm going to donate my game check this week to the tsunami
relief -- and hopefully maybe (it will be) a challenge for other
people to do that, too," Roethlisberger said.
Roethlisberger became motivated to act after numerous NBA
players -- including Kobe Bryant, Jermaine O'Neal and Bob Sura --
donated $1,000 per point scored last weekend to the relief effort.
The NBA players' union also donated $500,000, and the NBA will
match the gift.
In the NFL, the Patriots made playoff tickets available to fans
who donated at least $1,000 to efforts to aid the estimated 5
million tsunami victims.
"A game check isn't anything like some of the Yankees and some
of those people who've donated a million dollars, but every little
thing they can get can help," Roethlisberger said. "Hopefully,
it's a challenge to other NFL players. We've seen the NBA players
do it."
Roethlisberger, the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, has a base
salary of $230,000, but also will collect $9 million in signing and
roster bonuses by early next year and as much as $2.6 million in
first-season performance bonuses.
Roethlisberger's gesture impressed Steelers coach Bill Cowher,
who has talked all season about the rookie's maturity.
"That's a heck of a gesture on his part. That says a lot about
the kid for him to do something like that," Cowher said. "I've
said all along the kid's got a great perspective on things and
that's another example of it."
No other Steelers players have said if they will match
Roethlisberger's gesture, which was announced just before practice
and may not yet be known to them.

Worldwide levels of carbon dioxide are the highest they have been in almost two million years. Sub-Saharan Africa, Central America, Amazonia and Australia would lose the most species of plants and animals.

In celebration of the longest day of the year, I get up at 5am and head to Roan Mountain, aka the legendary mountain in my work in progress manuscript. Mid June brings thousands of catawba rhododendron to life. These evergreen bushes cover the mountain top with a blanket of dark pink / red. Waves of blue Appalachian Mountains stand witness to the short lived beauty that will soon be cast away by wind and rain.
For the peak of the summer solstice, I can think of no better place to be than the pages of my manuscript come to life. The curved branches underneath these blooming bushes are as captivating as the flowers. It is a whole other world under their canopy as you walk along the paths. Buzzing bees provide the background music, moving in and out of the flowers. An occasional butterfly stops long enough for you to see the color of its wings.
Other parts of this mountain are shaded and quiet. The Doe River flows over rocks and along moss covered trees in this magical forest.
Still other parts are high grass covered hills. I climb the one at Carver's Gap while thunder rolls in the background. Once up there, I have enough time to record some video of the 360 degree mountain view, and take a few photos before a bolt of lightning hits the hill next to me.
Knowing lightning hits the tallest thing (and at this moment on this hilltop—I am the tallest thing) I gather up the tripod and electronics and run down the hill. I will admit there was serious praying going on too as I realize the irony of meeting my end on the mountain I have focused on for the last year. Seeing two more bolts of lightning, I finally reach the forest area of the hill. The minute I dive into the trees, I feel safe and protected by the strong branches surrounding me.
When I exit the forest area, a lone rhododendron bush greets me. It is so peaceful in the shade of the incoming storm clouds. I can breathe; it is going to be okay. I give thanks and of course take out my camera, just for a minute, before the last of the downhill climb. It is time to head home. In a way, this mountain has become a second home thanks to the story and characters.
Until we meet again on mountain, trail…or keyboard 🙂

'American Idol' Experts Cut Through the Judge Hype, Call for a Show Overhaul (ANALYSIS)
But looking past the notion of the buzz created by a spikey-haired, pop-punk, the Lambert possibility could be interpreted as the ring of a 911 call for the FOX competition.
"The ratings are now plummeting at an alarming rate and the show looks and feels older and stodgier than the competition," Richard Rushfield, who wrote the extensive tome on the show, American Idol: The Untold Story, tells Celebuzz. "This may be the last chance to shake it up if it's to avoid a freefall."
The Hollywood Reporter's Music Editor, Shirley Halperin, says that the falling ratings can be alarming to not only FOX, but several other companies with stakes in the show's success: FremantleMedia, 19 Entertainment, Universal Music, Ford and Coca-Cola among them.
May's Idol finale was the least-watched of the series' 11-season run. And while 21.5 million viewers is still quite impressive, it represented a 26 percent drop from last season's finale.
"It's not the kind of drop you can ignore," Halperin tells Celebuzz. "It could mean make-goods to advertisers, smaller budgets to work with, things that directly affect the bottom line. In times of desperation, drama often works and that's what these alleged public shake-ups are. They're also a way to test the field and see who the public reacts to."
Rickey.Org founder, Rickey Yaneza, also stresses the importance of creating buzz at a time when Idol's ratings are at an all-time low and other shows are crowding the genre. Simon Cowell famously dropped judges Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger, as well as hunky host Steve Jones after an inaugural season that averaged about 12 million viewers – eight million less than his now-famous pre-debut prediction.
"I think that Idol is taking a page from The X Factor playbook," Yaneza, whose comprehensive coverage of the FOX talent competition and other reality TV shows has made him popular as a go-to source for fans, says.
Idol isn't alone in taking the X Factor's approach. The CW's way of freshening up its long-running and ratings-challenged America's Next Top Model meant firing original stars Nigel Barker, J. Alexander and Jay Manuel before its next Cycle. That definitely got the media and the show's fans' attention.
"There may be some contract negotiations in play here, but I think Idol needs the chatter now in a very competitive space," Yaneza also says. "It seems that it's all about The X Factor right now and it will be that way into the fall. Can Idol beat the Britney [Spears]/Demi [Lovato] combo? I don't know. The Adam Lambert buzz was a bit weak from a non-fan standpoint."
After Lambert came the obligatory rush among the media to name as many people that it could siphon off from tips, whispers and sheer conjecture. Of the many artists who are reportedly up for a judging position, our experts say that Miley Cyrus' youth may be a good match for The X Factor's Lovato and that Will.I.Am and Fergie (who had earlier this year shot down rumors she was in consideration for an X Factor slot) would bring experience and career success to the panel.
Meanwhile, Katy Perry is on record with THR as saying that she has been approached by shows, but she has some big creative projects she'd rather spend her time and energy on over judging a talent competition.
But, is a change even necessary? The ratings would say yes. And our experts pretty much agree that while Lopez is the lone keeper on the current panel, Idol should do something pretty drastic at this point.
"I think it either has to reinvent itself or go down with its aging audience," Rushfield says.
"They really need to stop reacting to the competition and think outside of the box," Yaneza says. "All of these things: The judge dynamics on The Voice, the over-the-top production and now the Britney star power of The X Factor — American Idol could have done earlier, but now they've fallen behind on those ideas."
Halperin suggests a pretty huge makeover of the judges panel – as in they should be replaced every season. "That would be the most exciting thing they can do at this point," she says. "And that's based on the same principle of having a new batch of contestants every year."
"It wouldn't require too much of a commitment from the music star — so he or she doesn't have to stop touring," she continues. "And would keep people guessing but in a good way, not engaging in a pointless game of speculation."
Overall, the experts we spoke to seem to think that an overhaul of some kind – especially a youthful one as Lambert's consideration would suggest – is necessary right now.
In the meantime, one thing is clear: We'll just have to suffer through the numerous speculations as to what (or who) those changes will be. Meanwhile, all the dimming show's interested parties are probably crossing their fingers and hoping that this period of buzz is enough to keep the flame burning.

Three premier educational institutes of the country I.e the IIT Mumbai, IIT Madras and the IIT Kanpur have expressed interest in acquiring the Aakash tablet. This move is to reportedly boost the sales of the beleaguered Aakash Tablet.
The Indian H.R.D. Ministry also has plans to improve the Aakash based on inputs by these institutes. The H.R.D Ministry also has plans to incorporate the Aakash with only Indian components and stop the import of foreign components so it has resorted to interacting with the three premier institutes.
Ever since the IIT- Rajasthan lost out on the Aakash deal, there were a lot of speculations about the future of the Aakash tablet, but now ll these rumors seem to be put to rest. The Government has pinned a lot of hopes on the upgraded version of Aakash tablet and has a received an order for 22 crore units. Looking at this, the question that is likely to crop up is Is the future of Aakash Tablet secure?

Well this is a fine example of "Serza not having anything to do with this comminity for a while" but I suppose leaving blogs and such wouldn't be too bad. I only really do it because I don't want to bother my Tumblr too much with Vocaloid posts despite it being so much Pokemon.
Either way, I was thinking what more "Macne" characters would be like since we have Nana, Coco and Papa for names, and names for new characters could be like Mama or Gaga. But then Roro came to mind, who, if you don't know is a character that won a contest to represent VY2 and is popularly used as such (Article : 66_(Roro)).
What I find particulary amusing that if he was re-designed a tad bit more he could potentially come off as a Macne character and in all honesty; I wouldn't particulary mind that. And i'm sure some of you will be saying "Wait- wouldn't that confuse fans?" but you have to keep in mind that we still live in an age where people still beleive CUL uses VY1's voicebank.
But yes rambling over, this disconnecting for a while thing clearly isn't working but then again i'll be on vacation soon so yes.

U.S. back on right path
I concur that it is the right of our citizenry to criticize the president. However, I do not believe there is a modicum of truth in John Schlosser's criticisms (Letters, June 16) except one. Obama is rapidly changing this country, and I couldn't be happier.
Schlosser suggested Bush did not ruin this country's reputation. He envisions a world where America rules through fear: both its own population and that of the world. America has, for much of its history, been an international beacon of hope. I want to see that restored. Fear-based politics and xenophobia cannot be allowed to pervade our policies.
The world is changing and the example we set is extremely important. We have learned in Iraq democracy cannot be granted by the sword; it must be desired by the people. Even as we speak, the Ayatollah's grip over his people has been weakened. The mantra of the moment: change.
Our greatest weapon is our ideals, beliefs and inalienable rights. Bush was lured into conflicts that destroyed our world reputation. I do not doubt his sincerity; he was outsmarted and played directly into their hands.

Q: Bhagavan, kindly tell me how to experience the suffering of the other as vividly as I do my own?
Bhagavan: Very often you try to explain away your suffering. You try to understand. If on the other hand, you stop doing these things, experiencing automatically happens. Let us say, you are married and your wife is shouting at you, and if you have read a lot of books on psychology you would try to explain her behavior, or would be busy trying to understand her. If you do neither of these, then you actually begin to experience her nagging. That is when something very strange and beautiful happens. It is only in the absence of explanations, judgments that we could experience another. That's why in the Movement many have learn to experience each other. Hitherto they complained about the nagging of the husband or the wife, today they are in ecstasy the moment the nagging begins. Hitherto they would run away from their homes, but now they don't. You could very well start with your intimate relationships.
Seeker: I am hounded by too many negative thoughts. I am not able to stop them through the best of efforts. What should I do to stay clear? Will these thoughts block my awakening?
Amma: Is it possible to classify any thought as being particularly negative? What exists is fear. Lust, jealousy and hatred are all interconnected and have their roots in fear. Humanity is ridden with fear, which is flowing through you. What could you do about it? Is there a door to shut out these thoughts? They come and go. Fighting these thoughts and digging into them would land you in depression. Get going with your work and help your fellow humans. All things will fall in place. No matter what your thoughts are, when the time comes, I will liberate you.
Q: What exactly is love, Bhagavan? Is love also an emotion like anger, like jealousy or is it a power that is hidden within man? Would love lead to suffering or to joy?
"The love that we are talking about is not an emotion, nor some power, as you say. It is none of these things. This love cannot be spoken about. We can tell you what it is not. The love of a parent for the child is not this love. The love between a man and a woman is not this love.
Your love of your friend is not this love. It is not attachment, it is not possession, it is not concern, it is not caring, it is none of these things. It is the stuff with which this universe is created. It is the stuff of the universe. It is your true nature. It is that which is there. If you go deeper and deeper into reality what there is, it is emptiness. It is all emptiness.
That emptiness is love. That is the love we are talking about. It has to be experienced. At the first level you have to become enlightened, at the second level a divine being must come into you, only
then you will know what it is. Otherwise it is beyond your grasp. We are not condemning the love you are experiencing now. This kind of love is perfectly fine.
What we are telling is, `that' love has no cause. If you see somebody, there will be `that' love. If you see an ant there will be `that' love. There is no cause for `that' love. For the love that you know there must be a cause. It must be your child, wife, friend, then there is love. On the other hand, when you experience causeless Love, you are in Oneness. You are no more separate from the dog, the leper, the beggar, or the rich.nobody is separate from you. There is complete Oneness. It is a love born of Oneness. So, It has no cause." source

Bhagavan Answers on Life Love Suffering
Q: Bhagavan, kindly tell me how to experience the suffering of the other as vividly as I do my own?
Contemplative Questions
They are not meant to serve as solutions nor are they meant to lead you anywhere. These questions are meant to serve as tools to discovering yourself.
1) Do you perceive the Presence of a benevolent force guiding, protecting and shaping your life? What name do you give that Presence? When did you best feel this Presence?
2) What is your opinion of God? Is your opinion drawn from religion, books, parents and or your personal experience of life?
3) Do you pray? Do they get answered? How often?
4) Do you think it is possible to relate to the Divine? What relationship would you opt?
5) Here is a story for you - Two fierce enemies once did a penance to placate god and receive boons vying with each other. God appeared to the first man and asked what he wanted. He said "give me twice of whatever you give my enemy". Then God appeared to the second one. Even before God could say anything he asked, "God, would you please tell me what my enemy asked for? On knowing his prayer request, he said, "then God, blind me in one eye."
Now what would you wish for yourself, your best friend and your worst enemy if God gave you a chance?
6) Have you ever experienced a coincidence or chance that seems to have involved so many people and factors that you can't stop wondering if a mastermind was behind this operation? If yes, do you savour the experience often and have you shared it with someone close to you?


text: Dave's Daily By Dave Fry, founder and publisher of ETF Digest and author of the best-selling book Create Your Own ETF Hedge Fund. April 13, 2010 PROPPING CONTINUES These "prop jobs" are becoming a daily "in your face" activity plain for all to see; but more importantly, we're basically long so why complain? Alcoa's earnings were a miss. That dragged down global equities fearful that economic growth via demand for materials would suffer. But, Alcoa always reports funky earnings numbers replete with write-downs and all manner of unique quarterly mumbo-jumbo. For the most part, markets marked time waiting for results from Intel, Linear Tech and CSX Corp among others. After the bell, earnings from all three beat estimates handily. Again, volume was light perhaps in advance of the first round of earnings news as investors wait to commit. Breadth was basically flat. The NYMO is a market breadth indicator that is based on the difference between the number of advancing and declining issues on the NYSE. When readings are +60/-60 markets are extended short-term. Per Investopedia: The McClellan Summation Index is a long-term version of the McClellan Oscillator. It is a market breadth indicator, and interpretation is similar to that of the McClellan Oscillator, except that it is more suited to major trends. I believe readings of +1000/-1000 reveal markets as much extended. Per Investopedia: The VIX is a widely used measure of market risk and is often referred to as the "investor fear gauge". Our own interpretation is highlighted in the chart above. The VIX measures the level of put option activity over a 30-day period. Greater buying of put options (protection) causes the index to rise.

List of 50 MPs key to marriage equality reform released
Valentine's Day Roses delivered to MPs who are targets of nationwide "We're Waiting" Campaign
National "We're Waiting" campaign puts a face to the millions waiting for reform
Growing number of Straight couples now waiting to get married, including David and Emma Pocock
The targeted parliamentarians and some delivery times are attached.
Australian Marriage Equality today revealed the 50 Federal MPs targeted by the new nationwide "We're Waiting" campaign. Only 25 more MPs are needed to support reform for legislation to pass the Parliament.
The 'We're Waiting' campaign will put a face to the millions of Australians waiting for reform and empower local communities in targeted electorates to help reform happen.
All targeted parliamentarians will today receive a rose from people who are waiting. This includes gay couples waiting to marry; straight couples who have put their weddings on hold until their gay friends can marry; parents waiting for their sons or daughters to be treated equally by the law; and the majority of Australians waiting for reform to happen.
Australian Marriage Equality National Director, Rodney Croome, said, "Today we launch our new campaign to activate grass roots support in the 50 electorates we have identified are key to achieving marriage equality,"
"We have selected 50 MPs who we believe may be persuaded to support reform, and if we can persuade just half of them, marriage equality will pass."
"Tens of thousands same-sex couples are waiting to get married, 65% of Australian are waiting for the laws to change, and now even straight couples are waiting to get married till their gay friends can.
"Our campaign, 'We're Waiting', will put a face to the millions of Australians waiting for reform in key electorates, and will empower these communities to do something about it."
"This starts from today with marriage equality supporters, gay and straight, visiting their MPs office for the first time to deliver roses, start the conversation about marriage equality, and ask them the question "what are you waiting for?"
"From the WA seat of Cowan to the Queensland seat of McPherson, over the coming weeks and months we will support these local communities to build the profile of the issue in key electorates and open the hearts and minds of undecided MPs."
The campaign has the support of Wallaby David Pocock, who is waiting to marry his partner Emma until the laws change. Mr Pocock said, "It comes down to equal love. I don't think it's the government's role to tell people that their love is right or wrong."
"I couldn't keep quiet while people I loved dearly were being penalised for their sexuality - something they can do nothing about".
He added, "Oh, and also the sky didn't fall during the few days of marriage equality in Canberra - which no doubt many anti equality groups predicted".
The campaign's video featuring gay and straight couples across Australia is at www.werewaiting.org
There's plenty for supporters to do while waiting, including:
- Meeting with undecided MPs about Marriage Equality
- Straight couples can pledge to wait to marry till reform happens
- If you are unable to wait to get married, have your celebrant express your support for reform
- Asking coalition MPs for a conscience vote
- Signing up to support marriage equality
- Educating yourself on the need for marriage equality
- Chipping in to support the campaign
For further comment contact Rodney Croome on 0409 010 668 or Ivan Hinton on 0419 124 826.
For information on constituents delivering roses to MPs call Bronwyn Middleton on 0425 210 023

Among the several changes to the program: Manufacturers seeking the Energy Star certification for products must submit complete lab reports and results for EPA approval before labeling; and EPA and DoE are requiring manufacturers to submit test results from an approved, accredited lab.
"Testing in an accredited lab is currently required for certain product categories including windows, doors, skylights and compact fluorescent lighting. The new process will extend the requirement to each of the more than 60 eligible product categories under the Energy Star program," the agencies said in announcing the program changes.
Another revision:
"Following a thorough review of the Energy Star qualification approval process, EPA has strengthened its approval systems and is no longer relying on an automated approval process. All new qualification applications will be reviewed and approved individually by EPA."
