If anyone is proof that a few rejections aren't the end of the world, it's some of the world's greatest authors. So if the answer to 'will you be my Valentine?' wasn't quite what you hoped for, take a leaf out of these writers' books – and keep trying.
Turned down. Insulted. Mocked. These are just a few of the fates some of world's most celebrated authors have suffered at the hand of ruthless publishers.
Here, we share just some of the feedback they received. So if you're suffering from Valentine's blues, take heart… Even J.K. Rowling was rejected 12 times.
Carrie by Stephen King
"We are not interested in science fiction which deals with negative utopias. They do not sell."
Animal Farm by George Orwell
"It is impossible to sell animal stories in the USA."
The Torrents of Spring by Ernest Hemingway
"It would be extremely rotten taste, to say nothing of being horribly cruel, should we want to publish it."
The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame
"An irresponsible holiday story."
Lord of the Flies by William Golding
"An absurd and uninteresting fantasy which was rubbish and dull."
Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov
"I recommend that it be buried under a stone for a thousand years."
On Sylvia Plath
"There certainly isn't enough genuine talent for us to take notice."
The Deer Park by Norman Mailer
"This will set publishing back 25 years."
The Diary of Anne Frank
"The girl doesn't, it seems to me, have a special perception or feeling which would lift that book above the "curiosity" level."
A short story submission by Rudyard Kipling
"I'm sorry, Mr. Kipling, but you just don't know how to use the English language."
And remember – if you're after words to make your audience love you, you could always call us on 01225 731 373.

For instance, a developer may want to upgrade some dependencies used by a module his team is working on in a sandbox. If he simply drops a newer version in the shared repository, then all the developers will see the newer version upon server restart. This can be avoided by updating the artifact_aliases property file of each developer; however, this is less transparent than a solution based on an hierarchical dependency resolution mechanism. I am not sure that the above example is worth to support; at least, it is less important than a plugin adding a repository into var. Thanks, Gianny > thanks > david jencks >

Get up close and personal with new War Rock update
- Written by companynxe

Blackshark update lands this month; adds new map, weapons and more
On 15th March, free-to-play shooter, WarRock will receive a new update that brings with it an intense, close quarters map, new elite weapons, special events and rewards.
Modern House, is a brand new map that offers WarRock veterans a new type of combat experience – close quarter action. As the safe house of the BlackSharks – an elite squad of high-ranking officers from NIU's special operation force – Modern House, is absolutely loaded with their trademark tiger-striped weaponry.
Players can take up arms with newly designed weaponry from a selection of guns (MPX, VSS, M4A1, M202A1), now with the BlackShark design to fit in amongst the troops.
Darbaran has caught wind of the location of the safehouse, which means it's just a matter of time before his squad of mercenaries show up, and raise hell – turning the place upside down in a search for the arms stash.
Throughout April, all players that take up arms will be granted an 100% bonus on all EXP on Modern House. While those players who play for at least 30 minutes a day can earn up to five coupons a day which will can be used to purchase items,

The price you pay is usually lower before the vehicle arrives in the UK. To encourage a quick sale. Reducing our UK storage costs and reducing the price you pay. We only supply 6 to 8 high quality right hand drive vehicles a year to the UK public. We try our best to find one owner or low mileage original vehicles.

They are also much better built than rival/3rd party conversions, although we will sometimes get those in if they are properly constructed and in good condition.

Two smartphones called the HTC Tiara and the ZTE Vital have been revealed to be heading to Sprint. These devices have been spotted in two filings in the FCC, where they are getting tested for Sprint's LTE Network.
The HTC Tiara is a a Windows Phone 8 handset that made an appearance in last month's Windows Phone 8 roadmap. Supposedly, the device will run on a 1.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, and have 1 GB of RAM as well as 8 GB of storage capacity. It will draw its power from a 1,800mAh battery and pack a 1.6 MP front camera, and an 8 MP rear camera. For its display, the device will have a 4.3-inch WVGA Super LCD2 screen.
A previous report by Unwired View says that the HTC Tiara could be sold for under $100 with a contract. The device is expected to be released this summer, although no definite date is available yet.
The HTC Tiara is but one of the two Windows Phone 8 devices that are supposedly coming to Sprint. The other one is the Samsung Ativ S. These two devices would also be the carriers first Microsoft-based handsets. Earlier, the wireless carrier had announced that such handsets will be by HTC and Samsung.
On the other hand, the ZTE Vital, which is also known as the ZTE Quantum, is based on Android Jelly Bean. This smartphone comes with specifications similar to those found on the HTC Tiara, and is thus likely to be aimed at the same market segment. Under the hood, it is believed to come with a slightly faster processor clocked at 1.5GHz. Also onboard are a gig of RAM, and 8 GB of native storage. It furthermore features a 5-inch display with a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels. The device will also boast of a 13 MP rear-facing camera, support for NFC, and a 2,500mAh battery. Like the HTC Tiara, the ZTE Vital will possibly come with a price tag below $100.

Some nice stuff on here too..
I enjoyed some of the history of Glasgow on this site too.
The History of Glasgow
Volume 3 - Chapter XLV - Glasgow Wells and Water Supply
IN modern times, when every citizen is aware of the serious dangers of a polluted water supply, it is curious to find that until the beginning of the nineteenth century Glasgow depended entirely for this chief necessary of life upon a few wells and the waters of the Molendinar, the Camlachie Burn, and the Clyde. Until the middle of the eighteenth century the wells were merely open holes in the ground, surrounded with a low parapet wall, [Burgh Records, 18th June, 1664.] and the water was drawn up by a bucket and windlass. It was only by degrees that the wells were covered, and a pump was substituted for the windlass and bucket. Of the thirty or so public wells which existed at the end of the century most were sunk in the streets of the town, and must have been liable to serious pollution from the surface filth which was only occasionally cleared away. As late as 1780 a well was sunk in Jamaica Street to supply the occupants of the new houses then being built in that thoroughfare. [Ibid. 30th Aug., 1780.]
The wells were one of the social institutions of the town. Most famous of them were the well at the Barras Yett, near the foot of Saltmarket, and the well in Trongate at the West Port, near the head of the Stockwell. There the gatherings of barefooted servant lasses, with their "girrs" and "stoups," waiting their turn to draw the household water for the day, exchanged all the latest gossip, to be carried home and duly retailed to their mistresses with exclamations and embellishments. The Town Council regularly appointed an official whose duty was to see that buckets and chains and pumps were kept in good order.
Of these wells, those still in existence, though now closed, are the famous Arns Well, [Named from the "am" or alder trees which grew about it.Strang, Glasgow and its Clubs, pp. 160, 168.] near the Humane Society House on Glasgow Green, the well in the flower garden of the Bishop's Castle, now Cathedral Square, the Lady Well under the Necropolis, the well at the Dew Hill or Dowhill in Gallowgate, which supplied the Saracen's Head Inn, and the Deanside spring or Meadow Well opposite the entrance to Shuttle Street, which at one time supplied the Greyfriars Monastery, and which made it almost impossible to erect some of the buildings round its site at 88 George Street. Of the old private wells there is one under the paving of the Argyll Arcade, not far from Buchanan Street, where once lay the garden of a pleasant suburban house. The oldest of all, of course, is St. Mungo's Well, in the lower part of the Cathedral, which was probably used for church purposes till comparatively recent times.
Regarding the water supply of the city McUre wrote in 1736, "There is plenty of water, there being sweet water wells in several closses of the toun, besides sixteen public wells, which serves the city night and day as need requires." [History, p. 144.] Forty years later, however, when the population was increasing at the rate of a thousand each year, the Town Council began to foresee scarcity. In 1769, as we have seen, [Supra, chap. xxx.] a committee was instructed to consider means of bringing good water to the town, and a fee of £12 12s. was paid two Edinburgh plumbers for their suggestions. Again in 1775 a clause was even inserted in a parliamentary bill to authorize the enterprise, and Robert McKell was employed to "enquire and search for fountains, springs, and water of good quality"; and in the following year eight guineas were paid to another man, Dr. Irvine, for similar services. [Burgh Records, 8th Nov., 1769; 1st Oct., 1770; 16th Mar., 29th Nov., 1775; 27th Nov., 1776.] Later still, in 1783, the Town Council returned to the problem, when an offer was got from David Young for bringing water from the Forth and Clyde Canal in a four-inch pipe, filtering it, and distributing it in pipes through the city. Again the surveyor received a fee, and again nothing was done. [Ibid. vol. viii., p. 633. 12th Feb., 1783; 17th Dec., 1789. Marwick, Water Supply, p. 55.]
Once more, in 1788, James Gordon, an Edinburgh architect and master of works, submitted a scheme for supplying the city with good water. There was evidently no urgency in the project, for the Town Council only took up consideration of this scheme four years afterwards, and then deferred it again indefinitely. Gordon deprecated the Forth and Clyde Canal as a source of supply because of the filth thrown into it by sloops and passage boats. The source he recommended was the Garngad Burn, to be supplemented in summer by the Monkland Canal. He proposed to distribute the water through the city by means of elmwood pipes, and pointed out that the undertaking might prove highly profitable, as several water companies in England enjoyed revenues of from £1500 to £50,000 sterling per annum. Even this bait did not stimulate the city fathers to action, and again the project was laid aside and forgotten. [Ibid. 23rd Oct., 1788; 19th Sept., 1792.]
In 1795, when the barracks were being built in Gallowgate, the contractor arranged for a water supply to be brought in a one-inch leaden pipe from George Macintosh's ground at Dunchattan, and the Town Council hit upon the economical idea of asking that the pipe should be increased in size to 1½ inch, and that the extra water thus obtained should be distributed to the inhabitants in Gallowgate, whose supply from the wells and streams was running short. Two years later this arrangement was carried out by a subscription of the owners in Gallowgate. [Ibid. 1st June, 1795; 17th Mar., 1797.]
Still later, in 1800, the Town Council paid Bryce Macquiston, land surveyor and engineer, a fee of £21 for five different schemes for supplying the city with water to be pumped from the Clyde by steam engines. Public opinion, however, was against any public outlay, and the project was again dropped. [Ibid. 19th April, 1800.]
As in undertakings of more recent date, like the installation of a tramway system and of electric lighting, it was not till private enterprise had proved its feasibility that the Town Council ventured upon the undertaking of bringing an outside supply of water to the city. The projector of this business was William Harley, a native of Glendevon, who had learned weaving at Kinross, and made money as a gingham manufacturer in South Frederick Street. A man of public spirit, he carried on a great Sunday school and evening classes in the Briggate, and drew up a scheme for ensuring that every child in Glasgow should receive an education. He also joined Robert Haldane of Airthrey in touring the country to establish Congregational churches : the little church at Sannox in Arran was one of their planting.
In 1802 Harley developed in a new direction. He bought a house named Willowbank, in the Sauchy Haugh, now Sauchiehall Street, near the site of the present Blythswood Street, and two years later he set about his famous enterprise of supplying Glasgow with water. There was a strong flowing spring at Willowbank. He led its water in a pipe to a tank on the spot where the Tramway Offices now stand in Bath Street, and from that tank he distributed supplies by means of pony carts throughout the town. The water was sold at a halfpenny a stoup, and is said to have brought him a revenue of several thousand pounds a year.
This enterprise did not continue long without competition. Its evident success stimulated certain other citizens to form a Glasgow Water Works Company. In support of this scheme the Town Council subscribed £1000. The company secured powers from Parliament to pump water from the Clyde and distribute it in pipes throughout the city. It began operations in 1806, and had its pumping station and chief reservoir at Dalmarnock, with other reservoirs at Sydney Street and Rotten-row. [Burgh Records, 25th Feb., 14th March, 1805; 28th Feb., 1806.] In the following year, 1807, another body entered the arena. "The Company of Proprietors of the Cranstonhill Water-works" obtained authority to pump water from the Clyde at Anderston Quay, and distribute it from reservoirs at Cranstonhill. This company was to supply the suburbs only, and not to encroach upon the royalty without permission of the Town Council. [Ibid. 9th June, 1807; 26th Jan., 24th Mar., 1808.] By reason of increasing steamboat and other traffic on the river, the Clyde water at Anderston became unfit for use, and in 1819 the company secured powers to pump its supplies at Dalmarnock. In 1838 the two companies were amalgamated, and ten years later a further supply was introduced by the Gorbals Gravitation Company, which brought water to Gorbals and the southern suburbs from the Brock Burn and other streams and lochs in Renfrewshire, six miles away. These companies kept the city supplied till the Town Council in 1855 took over the water companies, and proceeded to bring a more ample and permanent flow from Loch Katrine, through the waterworks which were opened by Queen Victoria on 14th October, 1859. [For details see Sir James Marwick's Water Supply, etc.]
Meanwhile William Harley did not confine himself to the supply of water for domestic purposes. Adjoining his reservoir he established baths, and on the top of Blythswood Hill, now covered by Blythswood Square, he laid out pleasure gardens after the style of Vauxhall and Ranelagh at London. He feued all the rising ground westward from St. George's Church, and, as an approach to his pleasure gardens, built a bridge over the St. Enoch Burn, and laid out the street which took its name from his bath establishment. He reclaimed and cultivated Garnet Hill, and grew there strawberries of a particularly fine flavour for the enjoyment of the visitors to his Blythswood gardens, while the cream to be consumed with these dainties came from a farm which he purchased at Sighthill.
After their first novelty the public tired of the pleasure gardens, with their bowling-green and strawberry arbours, and dubbed the view tower and summer house which he had built in the centre as "Harley's Folly." The tower, however, was afterwards used as an observatory by the University authorities until the erection of a special building for the purpose, and Harley proceeded to plan the building of Blythswood Square as well as St. Vincent Street, West George Street, Sauchiehall Street, and other residential quarters.

TEACHERS: Current events podcasts for the classroom!
Colleges and Universities across the state of Texas are providing food pantries in order to keep students from going hungry. Schools don't want students to skip meals, so they are providing this short-term fix to avoid their students going hungry. Some colleges have considered providing more access to school cafeterias or temporary meal plans for these students. Colleges don't want to stop recruiting students who come from low income families, but they have had to increase tuition due to a decline in state funding. Listen to hear more about hunger on college campuses.

Your niece's 18th birthday certainly represents a milestone in her life as she transitions into adulthood. If you want to go beyond giving her a card or gift, plan to make a quick speech for her party. It helps if you prepare the speech ahead of time. But keep in mind that her party guests will include her peers who might not want to sit through a lengthy talk.
Start with a very brief introduction of yourself, unless you're amongst close family only. The people listening to your thoughtful speech will want to know your relation to the birthday girl.
Share a brief anecdote about your niece. It should be somewhat entertaining, but not too personal or embarrassing. Baby stories work well. You can also tell about any of your niece's "firsts" that you can recall, such as her first day at kindergarten or her first time riding a bike.
Let everyone know how proud you are of your niece. You can allude to her accomplishments or simply thank her for being who she is.
Congratulate her on reaching a milestone birthday. Then finish off by wishing her a bright and happy future.
Tips & Warnings
- Only you can decide how emotional the speech should be. Don't try to take over the celebration with a lengthy, personal speech. Save that for a private talk or write it in a card.

Do people have to sign up with jotform to see form on Jotform Tab?Asked by Mbleseri on May 29, 2014 at 03:21 PMDo people have to sign up with jotform to see this form? When my friends click the tab they receive a signup jotform!
This is a re-post of a comment on How to Add A Form to Your Facebook Page
Thank you for contacting us.
No. They don't have to sign up to JotForm to fill out the form. Everyone who can view your page will be able to see and fill out the form.
Let us know if this answers you question.
JotForm Support Manager
Please disregard the previous answer.
I think you are right, I will be reporting this to our developers so they can correct this problem.
JotForm Support Manager
Actually, making more tests, I can see it should not send you to Jotform Sign up page,you need to open the page in an Incognito window (at Chrome) or clear your browser's cache.
Please test this FB page, find the Contact US tab
It should show you the form rather than the sign up page
Chief Technology Officer
It redirects you to JotForm's login page, because you're the admin of the facebook page.
It gives you the ability to use Gear icon on left side that you can easily change the embedded form from your forms without going back to JotForm.
Behaviour changed, we will not redirect you to JotForm login, but if you're logged in on JotForm, it will show the Setup (Gear) icon.
If you have any further questions, please let me know,
Kindest Regards,
- Ertugrul.
Just an observation, in case it was missed or overlooked... The requester did state the following... "When my friends click the tab they receive a signup jotform! ". Not "When I...".
Please accept my apology if I have misinterperated something somewhere!.
@Jeanette - I did a test myself from your link and it worked fine for me. It showed me the form.
@Mbleseri - If you like, I can test the link for you as a complete outsider with no connection.
(I will never be offended if you decline. I will understand and respect. Just helping wherever I can!)
As our Developer above you had previously stated that was the case at first. We've now corrected the way the JotForm Tab behaves so that if you are an admin of the page and are logged into your JotForm Account at the same time it will now just show a gear icon linked to the Tabs Control Properties. As far as I can tell it looks like this has been fixed since I did not get redirected when testing it further. And also, thanks for the extra input as well as lending a hand. ;0)

It's 1977, the year of the SIlver Jubilee, and the platform wedgies, the red plastic stoves and even a smattering of fluffy mohair jumpers are all here in vivid day-glo to convey what it must have been like back then to be on the right side of 20, flicking V-signs at Her Majesty courtesy of Messrs. Rotten, Vicious and co. Unlike Sid & Nancy, however, Isaac Julien's low budget Young Soul Rebels - his feature debut and winner of the coveted Special Critics' Prize at this year's Cannes - focuses on the '70s soul scene to describe what it meant at the time to be young, British, but more crucially, black.
For old chums Chris and Caz - promising and exceptionally cute movie debuts for Valentine Nonyela and Mo Sesay respectively - it appears to mean having a funky time spinning vinyl for a pirate black radio station called Soul Patrol, until - and here the plot, aided by some desperately indiscriminate editing, takes a somewhat complicated twist - a fellow Soul Boy is murdered in the local park and Chris takes the rap. Several detours later - into, among others, buddy-buddy territory, racial discrimination, politics, and sexuality of both the hetero and homosexual kind (including one brave but really rather embarrassing scene involving mutual masturbation, cringe-inducingly introduced to the tune of X-ray Spex's Oh Bondage Up Yours) - the whole murky business is finally resolved in appropriately anarchic fashion.
Young Soul Rebels is undoubtedly a bold, stylish effort which certainly has its moments - the music, in particular, is used to superb effect, while Frances Barber is a treat as Chris's joint-puffing Mum - but ultimately suffers from trying to say too many things too fast to too many people, the penalty, one suspects, for working a British film industry where your first film so easily doubles up as your last. As a piece of contemporary anthropology, however, it sure as hell beats watching Travolta dance his socks off in Saturday Night Fever.

As long as the property is registered then you will be able to obtain a copy of the title deeds from your local Land Registry office or office. I've posted the link below - they cost £4. Alternatively if you own one of the properties, speak to the solicitor that acted for your purchase, they should be able to shed light on this.

Great results
I had neck surgery 7 years ago and my neck has been pain free every since then. I am now under his care for a herniated disc in my back. He is a skilled surgeon. He explains everything so that I can understand it. I would definitely recommend this Doctor.

Dr. Bartolomei and his office staff were all amazing! My husband was in excruciating pain as we came into his office. He could not even sit in the wheelchair I brought him in on. They literally rushed out to us and took him back to a room so he could lay down! They were extremely attentive and sensitive to our needs. Dr. Bartolomei was so very kind and compassionate. He cut right to the chase of what needed to be done. He spent a lot of time with us with no sense of being in a hurry to leave. He sat close and made us feel cared for, answering ALL of our questions. Thank you Dr.!!!!!

Honest, Kind, and Trustworthy
Dr. Bartolomei was so kind and really listens to you. He doesn't rush you and he isn't knife happy as some spine surgeons are. He is also honest with you about your condition whether the news is good or bad. I highly recommend him .

Highly Recommended
I had a pretty big herniated disc. and leg nerve damage. Dr. Bartolomei explained my options and minimally invasive surgery looked like the best way to go. He explains things so you understand the entire process. Surgery was a breeze. Most people around me were against this surgery, let's say I have changed many of these people's opinions once I walked out of the hospital, pain free, with my life back :)

Great doctor with experience
I had neck surgery performed by Dr. B in September. Prior to the surgery, I had two appointments just to understand the diagnosis and surgery option. Dr. B. explained the surgery (perhaps a little more detail that I could manage) but it was extremely helpful. He also explained that on the SpineTeam Texas website there was a video showing the procedure. This was also very helpful for me. After the surgery, during his visit with me the next morning, he showed great concern with how I was feeling and provided more information about the surgery. At the post op appointments I am seeing his assistant who is also very helpful. I would have loved to have seen Dr. B. again but understand it is a business too. I would definitely recommend this team of doctors for anyone with spine issues that they treat. Previous to this surgery, I had numerous sterroid shots performed by Dr. Ryan Reeves (also with this group of doctors). Dr. Reeves also took time to explain and truly cared about my well being.

Time wasted
The visit was to discuss my trigeminal neuralgia and this is what I had indicated on the paper work submitted prior to the visit. As soon as he walked into the room he announced "I do not treat trigeminal Neuralgia" and I thought why I was not informed of this prior to the visit.Pushed him into discussing various treatmemts and he did recommend a neurosurgeon. He was very nervous during the meeting and looked ready to bolt out of the room. Anxious to see the billing for this event.

Dr Bartolomei is a vengeful mean money hungry doctor
Dr Batolomei deliberately misrepresented his staff as being qualified in areas they are not. My wife went to the hospital with seizures after being treat at his office. I would advise you find another physician. This doctor only cares about money.

Unbelievably Caring and Great Doctor
First of all I was able to get an emergency appointment within 48 hours because my Dr. said they have a STAT program for emergencies. His staff was very nice and pleasant to deal with. Then when Dr. Bartolomei came in to discuss my pain issues, I explained to him the problems (meanwhile I left the disc with the MRI at home), and he read the MRI report that was faxed over. We discussed how surgery should be a last resort, and to use a pain management program first, like the one I went through 9 years ago. He was very polite and cordial, explained everything with a common sense approach, not with an arrogant aura. I was so pleased to have him make the effort to discuss every option, and then I went to see Donna his scheduler to set the dates for my out patient procedures. She was just as polite and fantastic to talk too. My procedures will be done next week and I will try to remember to make a report about that experience. I can safely say that I am thankful to meet a Dr. that appears to be genuinely concerned about a patients health, and willing to make life easier without ever recommending going under the knife. On a 1-10 experience, I would give him a 9.99 because I believe we all have a little space for improvement, but I am 100% satisfied.

Dont Waste Your Time and Money
I saw De Bartolomel because i had extreme pain and was referred to him from a local hospital. I had my mri report and cd with me for him to diagnose. I have a annular tear with a high intensity zone (which he did not share ) with me. I also had borderline spinal stenosis, two posteroir disc herniation one with a extruded fragment, arthritis of a facet joint, lateral disc bulges with mild to moderate compromise of the neural foramina and other protrusions. I was in so much pain and all I did was lay on his examination table because i could not even sit up because of the pain. He walks in the room and sit down and says "well I am not going to do surgery so how else can i help you". Then went on for an additional minute and told me he did not know why I was in pain basically telling me that I was a hypercondriac. I left his office so furious and thinking how can a neurosurgeon with his knowledge not even have an idea why would be in pain. Then a week later I went to pick up my medical record just to see what he said and I read my report. My report said that I have normal range of motion. How can that be true I though, he never even touched me or spent more than two minutes with me but then he puts that in my medical record which was not accurate. To sum it up I would never go back to him nor would I recommend him to anybody.

Greatful patient
I have the utmost confidenc and trust in Dr. Bartolomei. His warm,personal and caring manner do not interfere with his professionalism.I have referred several people to him and will continue to do so. I would not hesitate to see him again if needed. I like the fact that he does not push for surgery unless it is absolutely necessary but will tell you when it is indicated. He is very good at explaining just what a procedure will entail. I feel like you are not just a number with Dr. Bartolome and he shows respect for his patients.

The Great Hydraulic Bridge!!!
My group and I decided to create a hydraulic bridge for our project. We found this bridge really interesting and cool since it can accomplish two tasks. The way it accomplishes its first task is to raise up slowly and carefully allow tall ships to pass through safely. Another helpful task that this hydraulic bridge can accomplish is, when the bridge lowers. This is useful to many cars in the need to get to the other side of a river. For example lets say you were taking a long trip and you wanted to get there as soon as possible. You decide to pull out your G.P.S and type in the address to were your going. Its starts telling you that you need to turn right after 500 meters. Then on your turn it tells you to keep to the right side of the road for another 5 kilometers. You spend about half an hour driving a 2 kilometer distance with all the traffic, when all of a sudden it unexpectedly tells you that there is a bridge up ahead. It then reminds you to go slowly since you will have to drive over the drawbridge. This is the first time you have ever saw a drawbridge and as soon as you pass it you are so thankful that it exists. After a while of driving you reach your destination and notice that you were 1 hour early. Now imagine this really happened but there was no drawbridge. First off you would have to go around the river which is using more gas than you wanted to use and second off you would reach your destination slower without the bridge there.
My group and I chose to use Popsicle sticks throughout most of our project. We chose Popsicle sticks because it would be strong enough to hold everything in place and well as hold everything up neatly. We agreed that it would be a good idea to use glue in order to keep the Popsicle sticks up since the Popsicle sticks support most of the materials. We also decided to use the glue for the cardboard pieces and the cubes. My group and I found that if we were to use two syringes plus some tube we would have an easier way to make the bridge lift up and lower. We will be using cardboard for the main base of the bridge and another piece for the top part of the bridge as well. Our last material are some small cubes in the colors blue and green. These will be found on all the ends of the Popsicle sticks.
My group and I chose the design of the hydraulic bridge because we found it the most interesting and saw it as a cool project to create and show to the class.

Well, this isn't good:
Islamabad (dap) – At least three Pakistani soldiers were killed and four injured Tuesday when a mortar fired from Afghanistan hit their outpost in the north-western tribal area, security officials said.
The incident occurred in the Angoor Adda area of South Waziristan, one of seven districts where thousands of troops have been deployed since military operations against the militants began in October 2009.
A security official said that at least six mortars were fired from across the border and one of them hit a post of the paramilitary Frontier Corps (FC), which is responsible for monitoring the cross-border movement of militants.
South Waziristan would put the mortars in either southeast Khost or northeast Paktika—in relative terms an unguarded, lightly monitored area (compared to Torkham, Chaman, or even North Waziristan). Militants also attacked another Pakistani army post in Kurram, just to the north.
While Hamid Karzai has been adamant that Afghan forces are not to return fire when Pakistan attacks Afghan territory, there was widespread concern that the Army would not pay attention to the restriction and would shoot back. If this becomes routine—if Afghanistan starts responding in kind to Pakistani attacks on its territory, then we could very easily see a full-scale war.
At this point, it seems only a matter of time before Pakistan launches an incursion into Afghan territory with ground troops. If and when that happens, we will see catastrophe.

Welcome to SEO Firepower
When it comes to choosing the right type of marketing for your business, there is no better place to start than going to the source of where most people these days are looking for answers – Google.
SEO, or Search Engine Optimization, is by far the best way to generate hundreds, or even thousands, of new visitors every month to your business who are looking for the very thing you are offering – but it doesn't happen overnight. When it comes to choosing the best local web marketing company to help you with getting more traffic from search engines, you must be very careful which SEO agency you ultimately decide to work with.
To make your life easier right from the start, SEO Firepower has laid out the most important factors we believe a business owner should take into account for any business looking to hire the best local SEO expert to handle their internet marketing needs.
Factor 1: The size of your company
Every company is different. Depending on the size of your business you'll want to know that the SEO company you choose can tailor their approach to what you need – there is no one size fits all in this business. SEO strategy definitely shouldn't be the same for all businesses, and SEO Firepower Premier Local SEO understands that each has a particular set of ideal potential customers to reach. Not all SEO marketing strategies are created equal, and because of this we never recommend a cookie-cutter formula. The first step when working with us is that we will provide you with a video analysis of your website, and online presence, that will tell you things you probably never even knew existed. We use cutting edge analytics tools and SEO information to provide you with the most accurate diagnosis of where you currently stand, and what to expect going forward for a company of your size and needs.
Factor 2: Specific Keyword Optimization
Keyword optimization is one of the top 3 most important aspects of making sure that you are showing up above your competitors in the search engine rankings. After our initial analysis, the next thing we do at SEO Firepower will be to analyze your content to paint the clearest picture of how your site is set-up, and where we can immediately start improving what you already have going on. Once we analyze your keywords, we will make recommendations for further optimization, propose additional keywords that you can take advantage of to generate more traffic, and then provide you with a detailed, yet simple to understand, analysis of our findings. This step will get us on the same page about how the ranking process will work for you. Also, an important thing to note, our keyword optimization and ranking strategies will help your business rank for not only your 'seed' keyword (meaning your primary and foundational term) but also 'long-tail' keywords, which as the name suggests are longer versions of your main keyword. For example, our company is a local online marketing company so a keyword could be local online marketing or even local online marketing expert – there is even a difference between that and local online marketing experts! Just by adding an s to make the word plural, you are unlocking a plethora of different phrases that consumer type into Google that your business can benefit from – and we take care of all of that for you.
Factor 3: Award Winning Customer Service, aka "The Human Factor."
Just because we are in the business of internet marketing, and can do all of our work from behind a computer screen, does not mean that we have forgotten what we feel is the primary goal of every business – creating win-win scenarios for all parties involved, while providing world class service and transparent communication. It can be too easy for a business owner to get lost in the technical jargon and over complication of a big SEO agency, and for this reason, we pride ourselves on making sure that you know where you stand at all times. By addressing your questions before they become concerns, you can rest easy and focus on running your business to prepare for the influx of new traffic, leads, and customers you will receive from our local online marketing. When looking to hire the best local SEO company, always make sure that you will get the attention that you deserve.
Factor 4: Paying for Quality Service
One of the biggest problems we see that our clients have had to deal with in the past was either having paid too much for not enough results or paid too little and not received the quality of service necessary to make a difference. We tailor our pricing strategies with two things in mind: The difficulty of ranking you above your competition; and some keyword searches you want to dominate. We are experts in creating a pricing strategy that makes sense with the amount of traffic potentially generated from the increase in rankings you will see from our services. Bear in mind, local SEO services are not something that can happen overnight, but with the right methods and SEO tools, your business will get more traffic than you have ever previously had.
Factor 5: Time is of the essence
When it comes to search engine optimization time is always working against you. The longer you wait to start, the more of an advantage your competitors will have to seize brand share and search results. SEO marketing is a lot like working out, in the sense that if you're not moving forward, you are moving backward – mostly search atrophy. The SEO Company you ultimately choose to work with should focus on delivering you realistic results, in a reasonable time frame. Any company who promises rankings too quickly will most likely be using techniques that may jeopardize the safety of your business, and any SEO company who quotes you an excessive time frame might not have your business's best interest in mind. At SEO Firepower, we are totally upfront transparent with how long we believe our campaign will take to rank your website – based on our in-depth analysis and previous experience with many rankings we have done in the past. We pride ourselves in our transparency with the length of campaigns and the expected results – and we consistently deliver on those promises. Contact us now, and speak to one of our local seo experts, to learn more about our superior local SEO services or our other digital marketing services – from e-commerce to reputation management to local online marketing, we have success with it all.

It wasn't the prettiest win, in fact, it was pretty ugly, but it was a win. There were plenty of times the Sooners could have folded, because frankly it wasn't their night, they were down by as many as nine at one point the 2nd half. But the Sooners pushed through, hanging on for a close 79-74 victory against the Houston Cougars in the All-College Classic Saturday evening.
As mentioned, it wasn't the most impressive performance on the Sooners part, particularly on the defensive end of the floor. There were too many wide open looks for comfort, which really is what allowed Houston to linger around for so long. There were costly turnovers at pivotal moments in the game. However, the Sooners did have one thing going for them tonight, and his name was Steven Pledger.
Pledger recorded a season high 31 points on 10-13 shooting and 4-5 from three, including a dagger around the 5 minute mark that seemingly sealed the fate of the game, as after that, the Sooners never trailed again. It doesn't stop there though, Pledger also added a career high 10 rebounds to get the double-double and made his presence known on the defensive end swiping two steals. Any other choice for the Sooner Player of the Game, would be the wrong one.
Tyler Neal continued to provide a spark off the bench, netting nine points in 23 minutes tonight, and pulling down six boards. Neal only seems to be getting more and more comfortable with his newfound role as 6th man after the transfer of Calvin Newell.
Cameron Clark also added some solid minutes for the Sooners, scoring six of their first 10 points and finishing the game with a total of 14, second in scoring behind only Pledger.
Romero Osby gave some quality minutes that should not go unnoticed, but, he did the dirty work down low for the Sooners grabbing 10 rebounds and adding a steal and a block apiece.
Sam Grooms was two assists shy of a double-double with 10 points, eight of which came in the first half, and eight dimes. He displayed perfect control, never turning the ball over once in the game.
Overall, it was a solid win for the Sooners. This has become a theme for Houston this season to hang around late in ball games, and not be able to finish, and the Sooners were simply another one of the games for them. Though in all reality it was a pretty sloppy win, it was the play late of the Sooners that impressed the most, hitting clutch shots and getting key stops to put the game away. Really, it was a good win, and the Sooners, a pleasant surprise to many, are now sitting at 8-1.

While plenty of high-yield opportunities exist, investors must always consider the safety of their dividend and the total return potential of their investment. It is not uncommon for a struggling company to suspend high-yielding dividends which could subsequently result in precipitous share price declines.
TheStreet Ratings' stock rating model views dividends favorably, but not so much that other factors are disregarded. Our model gauges the relationship between risk and reward in several ways, including: the pricing drawdown as compared to potential profit volatility, i.e. how much one is willing to risk in order to earn profits?; the level of acceptable volatility for highly performing stocks; the current valuation as compared to projected earnings growth; and the financial strength of the underlying company as compared to its stock's valuation as compared to its stock's performance.
These and many more derived observations are then combined, ranked, weighted, and scenario-tested to create a more complete analysis. The result is a systematic and disciplined method of selecting stocks. As always, stock ratings should not be treated as gospel — rather, use them as a starting point for your own research.
The following pages contain our analysis of 3 stocks with substantial yields, that ultimately, we have rated "Buy."
AT&TDividend Yield: 5.00% AT&T (NYSE: T) shares currently have a dividend yield of 5.00%. AT&T Inc. provides telecommunications services to consumers and businesses in the United States and internationally. The company has a P/E ratio of 10.51. The average volume for AT&T has been 22,629,300 shares per day over the past 30 days. AT&T has a market cap of $189.2 billion and is part of the telecommunications industry. Shares are up 2.2% year-to-date as of the close of trading on Tuesday. TheStreet Ratings rates AT&T as a buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, attractive valuation levels, good cash flow from operations, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures and notable return on equity. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had sub par growth in net income. Highlights from the ratings report include:
- T's revenue growth has slightly outpaced the industry average of 3.5%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly increased by 3.6%. This growth in revenue appears to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, improving the earnings per share.
- Net operating cash flow has slightly increased to $8,799.00 million or 7.31% when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, AT&T INC has also modestly surpassed the industry average cash flow growth rate of 1.93%.
- The debt-to-equity ratio is somewhat low, currently at 0.88, and is less than that of the industry average, implying that there has been a relatively successful effort in the management of debt levels. Even though the company has a strong debt-to-equity ratio, the quick ratio of 0.42 is very weak and demonstrates a lack of ability to pay short-term obligations.
- The company's current return on equity greatly increased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of significant strength within the corporation. Compared to other companies in the Diversified Telecommunication Services industry and the overall market on the basis of return on equity, AT&T INC has underperformed in comparison with the industry average, but has exceeded that of the S&P 500.

STM8-bit BCD Cycle Delay and 1 Wire Library
Electronics Projects, STM8-bit BCD Cycle Delay and 1 Wire Library article "arm project, microcontroller projects, " tagged with
STM8 delay implementation of delay_us and delay_ms in Cosmic-C inline assembly. All delay done using inline macro _delay. Register X used as cycle counter, number of cycles per microsecond calculated by US and MS macros (decrement/branch lasts 3 CPU ticks). Millisecond delays made by delay_ms function. STM8 1wire library Library intended for communication with 1-wire devices. delay routines. To use it define (or edit ds1w.h) in/out port and bit macros DS1W_IN_PORT, DS1W_OUT_PORT, DS1W_BIT. STM8 bin to BCD conversions Useful for number indication. There are 8bit, 16bit, and 32bit conversions (Cosmic inline-asm). 8bit and 16bit conversions use hardware division, 32bit conversion done by shifts and BCD correction.

The US Supreme Court has finished the first day of a landmark hearing on the constitutionality of President Barack Obama's signature healthcare reform.
Twenty-six US states have brought the Republican-led challenge to the administration's 2010 law.
The act expands health coverage to 32 million Americans, but critics say its requirement that people buy insurance intrudes on civil liberties.
A ruling is expected by late June - in the thick of the election season.
Yesterday's hearing focused on whether the judges actually had the power to rule on the case.
The Washington DC court, which holds about 400 people, was packed with lawmakers, senior Obama administration officials and members of the public.
People had been camping outside the white marble building since Friday.
The most eagerly anticipated day is today, when the judges will hear arguments on the constitutionality of the individual insurance requirement.
