During a recent visit to Ace Sewing and Vacuum in Pompano Beach, Florida, I learned that the folks at Husqvarna/Viking decided to replace the Topaz 20 with an updated version. I reviewed the Topaz 25 and learned that it is indeed, and updated rendition of the Topaz 20.
At A Glance
When you look at it, the Husqvarna/Viking Designer Topaz 25 appears to be identical to its predecessor, the Topaz 20.
Function keys: start/stop; needle up/down; fix; cut; reverse stitch; and speed control are situated above the needle and across the top front of the machine.
A stitch selection guide is inside the lid and a backlit monochromatic LCD screen is on the front to the right hand side.
The Topaz 25 also has an automatic needle threader, a drop in bobbin, a free arm, and a seam guide etched onto the needle plate.
- 160 built in decorative and utility stitch options
- 1 alphanumeric font
- 75 embroidery designs preloaded on USB stitck
- Upper and lower thread sensors
- Updatable software
- Needle up/down
- Presser foot up/down
- Start/stop
- Speed control
- Drop in bobbin
- Drop feed
- Free arm
- Monochromatic LCD screen
- On board stitch selection guide
- On board accessory storage (when embroidery unit is not in place)
Working on the Husqvarna/Viking Designer Topaz 25
Winding the bobbin and threading the Husqvarna/Viking Designer Topaz 25 is made easy by the on board guides that are so clearly identified a beginner would have no problem navigating the process.
Once the machine is threaded, however, before you even select your stitches, it is necessary to identify the type of fabric you will be working with in order to assure that the automatic tension setting is properly engaged. Skipping this step could very well result in skipped stitches or worse.
The process is not a complicated one if you are accustomed to working with different types and weights of fabric.
You must use the buttons at the lower edge of the touchpad to indicate the type of fabric you are using and if necessary the type of overcast stitching you using. Buttons labeled A through G are for fabric identification:
A. Woven – light
B. Woven – medium
C. Woven – heavy
D. Knit – light
E. Knit – medium
F. Knit – heavy
G. Leather/vinyl
Buttons labeled 1 through 7 are to be engaged when using specific stitch options:
1. Stretch light straight
2. Overcast – light
3. Overcast – semi light
4. Overcast – baste
5. Overcast – 3x zigzag
6. Overcast – hem
7. Overcast – buttonhole
Once this task is complete, the process of actually selecting the stitch you want is quite easy. The first thing you must do is determine in which grouping your stitch is stored.
There are several different stitch groups, and each group has several different options. While this sounds a bit complicated, it is not as challenging as it may at first seem.
The on board stitch selection guide is quite useful in this process because you can see at a glance exactly which numerical grouping your stitches are stored in. After selecting the group, simply dial up the stitch number on the touchpad and you're ready to go.
The stitches produced by the Husqvqrana/Viking Designer Topaz 25 produces what could possibly be the best quality I have seen in this price range.
The default settings need no adjustment or tweaking whatsoever to yield absolutely perfect, professional quality utility and decorative stitches.

Tying Off The Loose Ends
The Husqvarna/Viking Designer Topaz 25 is a good sewing and embroidery machine that produces surprisingly high quality stitches.
If it were not for the prolonged process in setting up the machine for sewing the right fabric and the rather involved stitch selection process, I would not hesitate to recommend it for use by beginners.
I cannot in good conscious say that a beginner would be able to do anything more than thread this machine and wind the bobbin because there are entirely too many steps required before you can expect to begin to sew.
In my opinion, a true beginner should be able to thread the machine, wind the bobbin and sew without having to go through the additional work of understanding enough about fabric to be able to tell the machine what kind of fabric they are using.
Most beginners use simple woven fabric anyway. In my opinion, learning how to set or adjust the tension is part of the learning process.
Therefore, any machine that can be adjusted to set the tension for you is something that should be reserved for the more seasoned home sewer, who knows what the machine is doing and why.
Anyone who has mastered basic sewing techniques, has a full understanding of sewing machine operation and maintenance and is ready to step up their game with a computerized sewing and embroidery machine might be happy with this one.
If you ask me, there are other machines on the market that do not require as many steps to achieve equal results. This does not mean, however, that I do not like the Topaz 25.
I like the feel of the Husqvarna/Viking Designer Topaz 25. It is solidly constructed and comfortable to sit at. There is very little noise and absolutely no vibration.
I believe that it is entirely possible to work on this machine while talking on the telephone, listening to music or watching television at a normal volume level.
With all this in mind, I urge anyone who is in the market to add a new sewing and embroidery machine to their sewing room inventory to visit their local Husqvarna/Viking dealer and ask for a demonstration of the Designer Topaz 25 before making a final decision.
Although there are other sewing and embroidery machines on the market that offer many more stitch options, I wonder just how many of those stitches are really being used.
If you are one of those people who likes having access to lots of decorative stitches, but does not need to have thousands of stitches to choose from, this just might be the machine for you.
- Beginner
- Needs lots of help – able to sew a straight seam but unfamiliar with most sewing techniques; needs assistance and instruction on basic sewing techniques.
- Intermediate
- Competent – can make different clothing items without assistance or guidance, but not good enough to sew intricate projects or to sew without a pattern.
- Expert
- Expert – can sew anything without instruction or assistance; possesses an expansive knowledge of sewing techniques and terminology.
- Recipient of the Consumer Digest Best Buy Award
- Excellent stitch quality
- User friendly
- Fewer stitch options
- Smaller embroidery unit

The logical argument is that the more people who are exposed to your message, the more people you will have buying your product/service. Here in the real world, logic does not always apply.
The simple answer is traffic is nothing more than people moving through your website, store, or trade show booth. You need a way to get those people to fully understand why you are the only business they should deal with. You need to give them the opportunity and desire to contact you when they are ready to buy.
Most businesses have a website, a contact form, and a lot of hope. If that sounds like your marketing system let me ask, "How's that workin' for you?"
Even with a website that was supposed to help educate the customer, you still end up explaining so much in person or over the phone. That is time that could be better used talking to people you know are ready to buy right now.
Have you looked at the analytics for your contact page? Now compare that to your home page. What's the difference? Conversion!
You've got to get more people to give you their information if you want to get more people to buy from you.
The problem is you have no way of getting to the people who are not quite ready to buy right now. You're relying on a lot of "if's" for your sales.
IF – They find your website.
IF – They don't "bounce"
IF – They bother to look for your contact page.
IF – They can find your contact page.
IF – Your contact page works.
IF – They got the right information tailored to them.
IF – Your sales staff follows up.
IF – Your sales staff follows up ENOUGH TIMES.
IF – They are not agitated with your sales process.
The "if's" could go on some more but I'll spare you.
You must make a compelling offer. That has to speak directly to the person looking at your site. With so many people you have visiting your site, how can you possibly target them all and speak to them directly?
Set up more than one follow up chain and guide them to it. That's all I'll say out here. The meat and the potatoes are inside the premium section above.

THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO MARK - Chapter 6 - Verse 37
Verse 37. Two hundred pennyworth of bread. About 27 dollars, [or £6 sterling.] As the disciples had a common purse in which they carried their little property, consisting of the donations of their friends, and money to be given to the poor, (compare Joh 12:6; Mt 26:8,9; Lu 8:30
it is not improbable that they had, at this time, about this sum in their possession. Philip—for it was he who asked the question, (Joh 6:7)—asked, with a mixture of wonder and agitation, whether they should take all their little property, and spend it on a single meal? And even if we should, said he, it would not be sufficient to satisfy such a multitude. It was implied in this, that in his view they could not provide for them if they wished to, and that it would be better to send them away than to attempt it.

So here's a question I have.
Are guys scared of virgins? Or intimidated by them? I'm 21 years old and a virgin. I'm not a prude or anything the opportunity just never arose. I wasn't allowed to date in HS and I haven't had a serious-working relationship ever (I'm not heinous or a prude I'm just a little commitment phobic).
one of my friends keeps telling me to just go out and have sex because I'm losing my "prime" years and that guys are scared of virgins so I best lose my virginity soon.
Guys, what's your opinion? Are virgin's scary? If I end up in a situation with a guy I really like, should I tell him? or just hide the fact that I am? Is it a turn off?
Most Helpful Guy
The best way to describe what we are is Apprehensive.
When a guy hears that a girl hasn't had sex yet, his first question is obviously "well why?"
Now as you just explained, the opportunity hadn't presented itself.
But because you're a virgin, the first time a guy tries to have sex with you, knowing you're a virgin, your reaction will greatly affect how he judges your character, intentions, agenda, morals, character. A lot of things will then ride on your first sexual interaction.
Say you're seeing a guy and he tries to initiate sex. You don't think you've been seeing him long enough to feel comfortable doing anything with him yet. So you turn him down on it this time. Maybe after seeing him a little longer.
But knowing you're a virgin, he interprets your simple decision as a more solid choice that you're not ready to have sex yet. And he assumes you probably won't be for quite some time.
The way a guy looks at it is: "Hey, she's gone this long without having sex. She seems to be pretty consciously set on not doing it. Why would I be a pioneer and gamble time and effort on results that may or may not present themselves. Why would I be the one to convince her to have sex if no one else has?"
They kind of view your virginity like this:
If you were going to play the lottery, but had not heard a single case of someone winning, you'd be a little apprehensive.
Also, some guys feel that a girl becomes really clingy once he takes her virginity.
But if you're in this "situation" with a guy, are you talking about a sexual situation, or a relationship-esque situation?
I suppose how you treat the knowledge your virginity will affect the nature of your relationship.
If you tell him you're a virgin, he might try to take the relationship slower and be a little more sweet to you because he sees great potential in your ability to keep it that long. He could see it as a sign of faithfulness.
He could ALSO avoid going to far out of his way to commit to you until he's had sex with you.
Depends on what kind of guy he is.
All guys are different.11|00|0
Wait, could you explain that 3rd to last line in further detail? I was a virgin before my current boyfriend. We were "fooling around" for months before I gave him my virginity, and even though we had admitted to having fallen for each other and being incredibly close, he still had not asked me to be his girlfriend. About 4 or 5 months into things, I was comfortable with him to give him my virginity - about 1 week after that he asked me to be his girlfriend.
Is this what you're trying to say?
- Show AllShow Less
No. In an adult relationship, what guys often do is wait you out. To a guy, sex doesn't mean a relationship. But they also know that a relationship doesn't always equal sex.
It's more of a standoff procedure. They're basically saying "hmmm, I really like this girl and she really makes me happy, but if she doesn't have sex, I don't know if I can be as faithful to her as I'd want to be as a boyfriend."
It doesn't mean it's all about sex.
Men are just very willing to wait and see before committing
Thanks! That makes me feel better :) I believe we have a stable, faithful, and most likely adult relationship. I'm 19, but he is 25 and sure, I understand that's a large age gap, but we've had no problems. The way I see it is that if everything works out and nothing illegal is going on, age shouldn't matter. We're happier than ever!

NEW YORK - After years in the making, "Deadpool" hits cinema screens this week and fans of Marvel's anti-hero got to interact with the movie's cast at a special event in New York on Monday.
Ryan Reynolds, Morena Baccarin, Ed Skrein star in the movie, which, with dark humor, violence and offensive language, has an "R" rating.
"I just felt like it was a character in a comic book universe that could occupy a space that no one else could and no one else could ever in the future as well," Reynolds, who plays Deadpool, said.
"So I was always really excited about it. He's able to operate in an 'X-Men' universe in a way which other characters could never do that. So I just liked this idea of a protagonist that's morally flexible."
According to the movie's synopsis, the film tells the story of former Special Forces agent turned mercenary Wade Wilson, who undergoes a rogue experiment to treat his cancer.
The operation leaves him scarred but also with powers that allow him to heal quickly and Wilson, soon Deadpool, seeks revenge on the man who carried out the experiment.
"There is a lot of Deadpool in me. I have a much better editing system in my mind then Deadpool does," Reynolds said.
The movie comes with a legion of fans -- a surprise for Tony Award winner Leslie Uggams who plays "Blind Al".
"This is awesome. This is a whole world that I didn't know existed," she said. "And my son ... He's a Deadpool fan, so for him, no matter what other stuff I did, this is the one."

More new toys..
I have to confess that when Hubbie goes out on a Tues night i am guilty of finding what he would call 'American Trash' TV to watch. I light the fire, get my blanket and settle in for a cosy night of indulgence without any moaning about 'what on earth are you watching'
This seasons Gossip Girl is particularly appealing, since we've got back from NYC i find myself looking behind the characters to see where they are, and if I've been there.

Bunting love..
I haven't told you about my new toy, in the shape of a sewing machine that my mum gave me. It used to belong to my Gran and i've been having fun playing with it.
This is the first thing i've made with a sewing machine scince high school, and although it just looks like a few triangles on a piece of binding, to me it's much more than that!

Let it Snow..
I'm wondering if we will get any snow this winter? Proper snow. Not the stuff that turns to mush in the blink of an eye, but real sledging snowman building snow which, when piled up at the end of the drive way, the mountains are bigger than a small person.
This type of snow we had when i was little and living in the north of England.
Sometimes i wonder, were the snow piles really that big? Or was i just really small?The pic above is my littlest niece in the snow one scottish winter. Thats exactly what snow should look like isnt it?

Konnichiwa everyone,
- Since my last post of terror (with the deletion of all our data), me and the team have been, resting... Taking a little time to relax our brains and to refresh after a year of college, and getting ready for season 3 of Legend of Korra, ooh, he hee, soo excited to see [SPOILER...LOL]. Anyway, we are a little bit behind on schedule when it comes to the drawing side of things; Character Art and Backdrops. The reason for this is simply, exams! But, as quickly as the started, they finished just as quick, and we weren't really concentrating on the creative elements of The Restoration of Hope|TroH]] or starting the Design work on it...sorry... But now with college out of the way for us all involved, we can actually, and again, begin. And I can actually upload some design art after promising it for soo long!
- Eventho most of my uploads have been just some updates on the page and some random comments, I did upload the Official: The Restoration of Fear Cover Art, which was drawn by our Head of Design. I hope you will agree that it's simply EPIC! I've also been writing vigorously, completing now, 19 episodes/scripts for Book: One, wow, that's quite a lot now I think of it..pretty impressed with myself. At this stage Episode is (in my mind) perfect, and episodes 2 & 3 are almost perfect to. We've also completed our last auditions in Hitokiri, Masuka, Zilko and Hanzo. They'll be voiced by; my old friend from Kyoto Yoshihiro Morishima, who will by voicing Hitokiri, internet voice actor and new friend Christoph Happl AKA User:Sep0815, who be voicing Masuka, and the guy who screwed up the computer with all our data on it Douglas Green, who will be voicing both Special Agent Zilko and Hanzo. So, not too shabby...?
- So overall, I'm excited, I'm excited for the season 3 premier of LoK, I'm excited in getting some college done over the Hol's for my second year, and I'm ECSTATIC on making an awesome animation!
Thank you for reading...

Ampal Mulls Purchase 400-Plus California Gas Sites
Israeli firm reportedly also in talks for GPM Investment's Fas Mart, Shore Stop stores.
HERZLIYA, Israel -- Ampal-American Israel Corp. is considering the purchase of 400 to 600 gas stations in California., according to a report by Globes Online, an Israeli business news site.
Looking to enter the U.S. market through the purchase of major oil company locations now on the block, the company may spend $150 million to $200 million on the retail fuel sites, the news organization reported.
Recent reports also revealed Ampal was in talks with Petro Group Ltd., an Israel-based holding company, to purchase its U.S. fuel operations, held by subsidiary GPM Investments, at a company value of $80 million. GPM owns a chain of 300-plus gas stations and convenience stores, operating as Fas Mart and Shore Stop, in Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Tennessee, Connecticut and Rhode Island. A call to GPM Investments by CSNews Online for confirmation was not returned by press time.
Separately, Petro Group CEO Rami Greenbaum resigned, according to the report.
Ampal has tried for several months to expand its energy operations, which include primarily a 12.5 percent stake in gas supplier EMG, the report noted.

Bohemia, NY (PressExposure) June 28, 2011 -- Renowned real estate investor and visionary entrepreneur Billy Alvaro, the creator of Max Returns LLC, has announced a new, novel approach to helping home owners who are considering the need to sell a house fast in Suffolk and Nassau Counties, Long island. A seasoned and prolific buyer and re developer of Long Island real estate, Alvaro - who guarantees his ability to sell a home in seven days for cash - has announced he will now be offering to pay home owners $250.00 for nothing more than the ability to see if their house meets the criteria of his program, featured at soldin7daysforcash.com.
Alvaro, whose network of companies have helped nearly 12,000 families since 1996 and whose multiple organizations have accounted for $1.3 billion dollars' worth of volume on an annualized basis, developed the $250.00 cash giveaway as a means to enlist more interest in the seven-day sale program. The seven-day program is designed to ease the burden on home owners with no certificate of occupancy and to provide a viable "as-is" solution for would-be sellers whose homes are in varying states of disrepair, poor condition or are cluttered with accumulated belongings.
The seven-day program and the $250.00 cash giveaway - which belongs to the home owner whether their house qualifies or not - are further designed to stimulate market movement and reflect a bit of light toward the end of the real estate tunnel.
"Anyone can buy or sell a house, but what I am trying to do - because this specific area is a big part of who I am - is to try and find ways to not just sell a house in Long Island, but to help home owners in need find solutions that can bring them some quick relief and substantial value," said Alvaro, a former Columbia Association Businessman of the Year. "By helping home owners in distress sell a house fast, and get them some value in the process, we give folks a chance to get back on track with their lives and get back to the work at-hand; the work of toiling on in pursuit of the dream - just like our parents and grandparents did - and the work of making Long Island one of the best places in the world to live, love, work and play."
Founder of The Billy Alvaro Group and also a key proponent of The Center for Homeowner Awareness, Alvaro - generally considered the top 'all cash' buyer in New York - said that the process of qualifying a home for the seven-day program requires a bit of time and simple due diligence. The $250.00, though, is available immediately to home owners who sign up and belongs to them whether their home, in the end, qualifies or not.
"My record speaks for itself, and I've been doing this for a long time," said Alvaro. "I'm not like one of these billboards, blinking, 'Sell house fast!' I don't want to just sell a house. That's not me. I want to use my position and experience to help promote movement within the market."

Unfortunately, we aren't all lucky enough to live in a town where you can catch your first chairlift within 20 minutes of waking up. Most people must make the commute for day trips and many people live far enough that they need to make a weekend out of it.
The thing about driving to a mountain ski resort is, well, it's in the mountains. This means the journey can be precarious at times as your car traverses across sketchy mountain passes. Winter conditions only intensify the roads you may have to navigate. While you can never be completely prepared for speed bumps in your road trip, make sure you're as prepared as possible! Here are our safety tips for a successful mountain road trip.
Before You Leave
Check the Car
Give yourself plenty of time to make sure your car is ready to handle mountain driving. This can include things such as being up to date on all service work like oil changes and inspecting your tires for appropriate tread levels (which is 1/8 of an inch).
Without proper traction, even a car with All-Wheel Drive can have trouble in extreme conditions. Some states have traction laws that, when in effect, issue tickets for cars that do not meet tread standard.
To make sure your tires are ready to go, get a little help from George Washington. Use a quarter to test your tread depth. Insert the quarter into the tread with George's head facing down. If the tread covers the top of his head, then it is at least 1/8 of an inch deep. If the tread does not cover it at all, your tire's tread is too shallow. Check multiple spots on each tire, and if any of the spots fail George's test, your car isn't the safest it can be. It's time to get new tires.
Another important, but often looked-over item you should check is washer fluid. Make sure the car is completely full and you have extra in the car. The splash back from other cars can cake dirty substances to the windshield that can freeze. Without washer fluid, it can become impossible to see and therefore unsafe. Make sure your wiper blades are ready to tackle the elements as well.
Emergency Car Kits
Stock your car with everything you may need in case of an emergency. Here's a quick list of items you should have for a road trip, especially in adverse weather:
- First aid kit
- Plenty of water
- Food, such as trail mix and granola bars
- Blankets and extra layers
- Flashlight with fresh batteries
- Car cell phone charger
- Shovel
- Kitty litter (To pour under tires for traction if you get stuck)
On the Drive
Be sure to get a good night's rest before the drive. Have a good selection of music and books on tape to help keep you alert and awake. Of course, you'll be anxious to reach your destination, but be cautious when driving on roads that are not dry.
Even if the road appears to be only wet, there could be black ice hiding underneath. If driving at night, dim the dashboard lights to help eliminate anything that could disrupt visuals on the road. It's always best to have your headlights on when driving in the mountains regardless if it's night or not, and especially if it's snowing or raining. Even if it's not providing you any noticeable help, it makes it easier for other cars to see you.
It can be stressful planning for a ski trip but don't let the drive worry you. Follow these safety tips and have a successful mountain road trip.

The top commander in Iraq, U.S. Army Lt. Gen. Ricardo Sanchez, said a Shiite militia has at least partial control over two southern cities, Kut and Najaf. He said coalition forces will move soon to break the militia's hold in an operation dubbed "Resolute Sword."
There were also signs that Moqtada al-Sadr's Shiite militia controlled Kufa.
Fighting this week has left 36 Americans and at least 459 Iraqis dead. This includes more than 280 Iraqis killed since the Marines' siege against insurgents in Fallujah, west of Baghdad, began early Monday said Taher Al-Issawi, the director of the city's hospital.
The intensified violence on two fronts — one Sunni, one Shiite — has forced the U.S. military to consider sending more troops to Iraq and to postpone the removal of forces due to rotate out.
"You can be certain that if they want more troops, we will sign deployment orders so that they'll have the troops they need," Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld said at a Pentagon news conference Wednesday, though he insisted fighting was not spinning out of control.
Sanchez said it appeared there are links "at the lowest levels" between the Shiite and Sunni fighters.
In other developments:
The United States has about 135,000 troops in Iraq. The continuing rotation of forces in Iraq gives American forces an advantage by having about 20,000 more troops than would otherwise be there.
Gen. John Abizaid, the U.S. commander of the Iraq campaign, spoke with President Bush Wednesday and did not ask for more troops then, a senior defense official said on condition of anonymity.
Some members of Congress said they believed more American troops should be sent to Iraq.
Democratic Sen. Robert Byrd, the Senate's senior member and a fierce critic of the war, said he heard "echoes of Vietnam" in the talk of increasing U.S. forces in Iraq.
In response, Sen. Gordon Smith, a Republican, paraphrased Ho Chi Minh, noting that the North Vietnamese leader said the Vietnam War was won by dividing the American public, not on the battlefield.
"We must win," Smith said. "We must not have the will of the American people broken by the naysayers."
Gen. Richard Myers, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said fighting in Iraq came in two broad categories.
West of Baghdad in cities such as Fallujah and Ramadi — where 12 Marines were killed Tuesday — the main opposition is "former regime loyalists," including supporters of former president Saddam Hussein and anti-American foreign fighters loyal to Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, a Jordanian-born terrorist believed linked to al Qaeda, he said.
The fighting in the south — which on Wednesday spread for the first time to central Iraq — is waged by the Shiite Al-Mahdi Army militia, which launched a wave of attacks against coalition troops in southern cities and Baghdad this week after U.S. authorities began a crackdown on its leader, al-Sadr.
Rumsfeld discounted the strength of al-Sadr's militia. "There's nothing like an army," he said. "You have a small number of terrorists and militias coupled with some protests." U.S. officials estimate al-Sadr's force at about 3,000 fighters.
But The New York Times reports intelligence officials believe that the uprising goes well beyond al-Sadr's force. And the week's fighting showed a strength that few expected from the al-Mahdi Army.
That militia virtually controlled the Shiite southern cities of Kut and Kufa and were in partial control of Najaf.
Al-Sadr fighters battled American troops in the town of Baqouba, northeast of Baghdad — the farthest north that the Shiite violence has reached.
Overnight, al-Sadr militiamen battled with Polish troops in the city of Karbala throughout the night and with Spaniards in Diwaniya and Najaf. Nine Iraqis were killed in Karbala, the Poles said.
Police in the cities have abandoned their stations or stood aside as the gunmen roam the streets. Their performance raises questions over a force U.S. leaders are counting on to keep security in the future Iraq.
In Baghdad, U.S. forces before dawn struck and damaged al-Sadr's office in his main stronghold, the sprawling Shiite neighborhood of Sadr City, residents said.
In Fallujah, Marines battled again around the Abdel-Aziz al-Samarrai mosque, which Marine Capt. James Edge said insurgents were again using as a base despite a six-hour battle the day before to uproot them. Helicopters were deployed to support the Marines, he said.
Iraqi witnesses said some 40 people gathering for prayers were killed in a U.S. airstrike on the mosque compound, but U.S. officials said they had no report of civilians killed.
Brig. Gen. Mark Kimmitt said U.S. Marines did not attack the mosque until it became clear enemy fighters were inside and using it to cover their attacks.
Heavy fighting was heard Thursday in several neighborhoods, and U.S. Marines grabbed rooftops of buildings, firing on gunmen in the streets.

When a woman cheats everyone and I mean everyone points fingers and calls her out. Yet when a man cheats some people call him out others just find it normal. Why?
Most Helpful Guy
There is this impression on society that guys are just going to cheat but women never will. That's so obviously not the case, but that is the impression that society has. Women should be the ones that are waiting at home for their man, not going out and finding a new one. What too many people don't realize is that women and men have the same needs. I've met girls that want more sex than I do and I've met guys who want no sex. But society would have us believe that females are the purer gender and can control their lusts in ways men could never hope to do. At the end of the day, we are all animals, none of us can really control what we want.
It's the stigma that pushes everyone to point fingers. With so much demand for equality on all sides, anything that can show the other side isn't better can be construed as a victory. Women like to say that you need to keep an eye on your man so he doesn't cheat, men like to point fingers when women cheat. It's all a game to people.
My answer: men are often accused and suspected of cheating. When they cheat everyone expects it. Women are held to a higher standard by both men and women. When they cheat, everyone likes to jump on it to make themselves feel better.11|00|0
Well written.
I thank you. This is actually something I struggle with myself. I was raised by a feminist and a sarcastic (lovable) asshole of a dad. Father doesn't understand women all that much and Mother sees sexism where there isn't any. Childhood was interesting. But it allowed me to clearly see two very different, and often warring, sides of society. If you were to ask me, a woman cheating isn't much different than a guy cheating. Most of the time it arises from problems in a relationship. Sometimes they are just weak and need something new. Gender here doesn't matter much, the cause and result are similar enough that we should ignore the gender of the cheater. When there's a problem in a relationship, words are the answer, not random sex.

I would like the submit button to be replaced by Facebook login buttonAsked by markdg1991 on December 15, 2015 at 04:26 AM
I want to know how can I perform the same function for my submit button on my website. If the user is not connected, FB Login button should show first before showing submit button which would also let me save the details of fb basic info and form inputs to my database.
Thank you!
In this case you should use the App Fit Forms:
User will be asked to login in order to submit the form, and this will allow you to have shorter forms, as the personal information will be used from user's Facebook profile and sent to you.
Let us know if we can assist you further.
Hi Carina,
How about if I want to add just the button of Facebook Login to integrate to my form. There are some fields in my form that will come from PHP Coding and from user inputs in my site. My form is not really for personal details but I also need to save their fb uid, fb name and fb email along with the inputs of the users to our database. Is it possible to use JotForm for that? or if in any case, would you mind sharing on how you do the implementation for this button?
Thank you!
JotForm Support
The fit form does that as well. In order to integrate the app, you have to login to your facebook account first by clicking the login button. I suggest to make a test first so you'll see how the fit form works. To integrate, please check this page: https://www.jotform.com/fit-forms/
Just a heads up, the fit form integration does not include FB UID in the options, only the following.
Hope this information helps!

Height of productsAsked by milladesignmaccom on May 12, 2016 at 11:53 AM
Hi, I want to change the hight of product area in my form, it seems to change well when i change the css to:
.form-product-item.hover-product-item {height: 320px!important;overflow-y: scroll;overflow-x: hidden;}#cid_1 img.form-product-image-with-options {height: auto!important;},
but when I preview its no change? I want to cnhage the hight because it will prevent most of the boxes to have to scroll, but I will keep the scroll thats fine because some of the products are high.
Is this possible?
And as well I want all of the product text to come under the picture, not on the left side.
JotForm Support
Do you want that your form looks like this?
I have cloned your form and inspected CSS code that you added and I found some errors inside of your code. You need to fix that code.
You can also clone my form https://form.jotform.com/61325245176958
Hope this will help. Let us know if you need further assistance.
ok, thnx I think I have made the right changes now.
I've been told not to make changes in the designer mode but in the preferences, and Inject css. But actually now the hight is ok, so I don't know what went wrong,but the text I would very much like to go underneath the picture not on the left side ..

I have moved your other question to separate thread and we will provide you an answer there shortly.

I was seeing a guy on and off for about 10 months we broke up again because he decided that he didn't want a relationship right now due to school and work. I texted him later that night and told him that it was time that I move on with my life and no hard feelings. He texted me back in kind and texted me the next day to apologize about treating me badly.
Like I said, we've been on and off, so us getting back together is not out of the question at some point. The first and second time we broke up he was the one that wanted us to try again but I had to initiate overall contact the first time (the second time he did).

Auto enthusiasts appreciate the a brand you can trust built into each Chevrolet, and understand that only the best repair K20 parts will suffice when your car or truck needs fixing. It's not all the time that you discover you need a replacement Window Regulator for your vehicle. Chevrolet vehicle enthusiasts have grown accustomed to a certain level of reliability when driving their K20 around town. Anyone who operates a Chevrolet knows that when it comes to repairing their car, truck, or SUV only the highest quality replacement parts will do.
In order to get full functionality out of your car, your windows have to roll up and down. Your Chevrolet K20 window regulator moves the window glass; keeping the environment outside your car separate from the passengers inside your car. It's easy to take the window regulator on your vehicle for granted when it's working, but easy to see how much you need it once yours breaks. It's not fun to be forced to drive your Chevrolet K20 with the windows down in the dead of summer while air conditioning escapes from your car because your window regulator doesn't work.
Bring your K20 back to life with the best new or rebuilt parts from the experts at Car Parts Discount. Given all the hassles associated with repairing damage to your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the number one store you go to make buying it easy.

anyone deploy Vista SP1 yet?
19 Replies
Apr 24, 2008 at 1:38 UTC
1st Post
If you are talking about people that have already updated their systems to SP1 for Vista then I have.
I haven't had any troubles out of it so far and it actually did increase some of the loading time to get to the desktop. (Probably from around 8 to 10 seconds before SP1 and about 3 to 6 sectonds after SP1, then again I don't have really that much on my computers for it to load....lol)
I would suggest upgrading to it as it does fix a few issues and helps protect you against viruses.
Hope this help
Apr 24, 2008 at 2:02 UTC
nope still xp sp2
Apr 24, 2008 at 6:42 UTC
I have upgraded one of my PCs at home to Vista SP1, I haven't had any problems with it. My son's Vista PC doens't show SP1 available in the Windows Updates yet. My other two PCs at home are running XP SP2 and XP SP3.

Have you noticed an improvement coming out of sleep or hibernation?
Apr 25, 2008 at 4:33 UTC
Yeah I have noticed a difference in it loading up from sleep or hibernation. Apparently microsoft made it where it stores more information in the RAM so that everything loads up quicker.
Just so everyone here knows.....lol, I have the windows sidebar running with 4 apps, my background is a video of a waterfall (I have vista ultimate), I have
like 4 applications running in the system tray, and task manager says that I have 67 running processes in the background.
Then again I do have the intel quad core CPU, 8GB of Ram, and like over 1TB of hard drive space total on my computer, with 2 NVIDIA 8800 GTS PCI-E Video Cards installed and running in SLI mode.....lol

We have one Vista machine out of almost 200 computers throughout our companies. Just deployed it sometime last week with a fresh load and all of the updates. Worked great until ESET's NOD32 threw a fit for some reason. But once that problem was fixed everything turned out fine. It's not the operating system that's tough to work on, it's getting all the software up and running correctly as well as having beefy hardware.
As for all of the other machines, 90% of them are still on XP SP2 and a few recent deployments have SP3. All stable...
I think we'll stay with XP for probably another year or so... as long as we can. Most of the machines' hardware just isn't enough to run Vista and I'm sure the last thing our employees want to do is have to climb any learning curve because we "had" to switch operating systems.
May 28, 2008 at 8:44 UTC
I've updated 5 stations with Vista SP1 and I'll say that it resolved somes issues we had with Vista, but there's 1 installation that still have the problem...
One of our employees did install the sp1 over her HP laptop and it never gone trought the installation and had to restore the laptop to vista without sp1.
I've also done 1 laptop to sp3 and I'm not sure (I didn't done any tests yet) but it looks like it's a little more faster than on SP2 and I was able to make a new clean image with sp3 without all the updates installation we had to make if we were installing from sp2.

Deployed Vista on IMac ( for Senior Partner) using bootcamp and parallels. Vista SP1 works fine on its own partition (i.e. using bootcamp) but major problems with locking up when run on the MAC OS under parallels software.

Spiceworks says I've got about 20 Vista systems out of 80ish total. I've put SP1 on all but one or two and I've only seen imporvements (or no change in a couple of cases).
I did have one system go into infinite reboot, but luckliy that was new out of the box and we had an early release SP1. A rebuild fixed it and all is well now.
Recently I've had a couple of problems with updates that never seem to complete (so the system always says there's more updates) but that's pretty minor and only seems to be on two computer
May 28, 2008 at 1:27 UTC
May 28, 2008 at 1:29 UTC
I just installed Vista's SP1 on a Dell Inspiron 9300 running Vista Ultimate, all went smooth, the machine is a little bit speedier than before the SP, it also "thinks" less when advising with security prompts. it definitely improved the speed when storing files.
So far good news!
May 28, 2008 at 1:53 UTC

OS is Vista business, upgraded to sp1, run around 70 processes, seems a hair slower on reboots, biggest difference i noticed is the warning on remoting into other computers.Seems to be extremely tolerant. System has a quad core intel with 3 gb of memory.

Deployed Vista SP1 on 3 systems in a Corporate network. Terrible compatibility with network resources (takes too long to configure due to the security advisory warnings), and making a fresh image of the system (after standardization) didn't make things any easier. Vista is installed on hardware with corporate standards for the company.

Standard Mid-Tower 800mhz bus
1GB of RAM

Its a Windows Shop with Citrix App Management and Vista RC and SP didn't take too well to published applications being provided to the clients.
I'm definitiely considering a 2 year wait before I try this again.
May 28, 2008 at 4:17 UTC
I have Vista SP1 on two HP laptops dv9000 and dv6000 both run great other than some flaky wireless drivers at my house.
At work we run all XP SP2 about 150 machines with no problems really havn't looked to move to SP3 because everything is already patched with WSUS.
WSUS 3.0 SP1 FTW, so much better than previous versions.
May 28, 2008 at 4:37 UTC
There is a known problem with some HP systems with AMD CPUs. The system image copied to their C: was created on a machine with an Intel CPU and has both HAL drivers. A left-over registry entry causes the Intel driver to be loaded after SP1 is installed. There is a workaround available. GOOGLE it.
May 29, 2008 at 10:49 UTC
65 Workstations and 15 Laptops all on Vista Enterprise SP1, we just updated our BDD2007 with it also. Vista is the most stable Microsoft OS out of the box we have ever deployed. SP1 seems to have made it even more stable. We have moved all of our laptops to VE64 and have started moving workstations also. The 64bit version, in our environment seems to bullet proof, no crashes, no freezes or even issues with our old software packages.

LOS ANGELES – Wooden Award candidate Reeves Nelson of UCLA was suspended indefinitely by Bruins coach Ben Howland on Monday after showing up late for a team meeting and then skipped two practices.
Nelson, an All-Pac-10 forward last season, also got into a verbal confrontation with Howland over the weekend.
The junior will not play against Middle Tennessee State tonight at the Sports Arena and his status will be reviewed later in the week with a permanent suspension an option.
""This is a very disappointing situation for Reeves and our basketball program," Howland said." We have a high standard and code of conduct that our student-athletes are expected to adhere to and Reeves has fallen short of our expectations."
Nelson showed up late for a team meeting Saturday, the day after the Bruins were upset in their regular-season opener against Loyola-Marymount. After getting into a confrontation with Howland he missed practices Sunday and Monday.

The NSA is watching what you do. NSA spying on internet and phone activity is a scary thought. Luckily, here are five things you can do to stop the NSA from spying on your internet and phone activities.
1) Install Tor
Tor is a web client which makes your internet activity impossible to monitor by the NSA. Tor works by establishing several different access points between your computer and any website you access. If you use Tor, the NSA may see that monitored sites have been accessed, but will not be able to trace the info back to your computer. Tor can be slower, however, so you may need to sacrifice your internet speed for your security.
You can download Tor here.
2) Use Silent Circle on your phone
Silent Circle is an IOS app that blocks NSA surveillance on your phone calls. With Silent Circle activated, you can make and receive calls that cannot be tracked by the NSA, or any other organization. Silent Circle does not have access to your phone records, so even if the NSA demands Silent Circle's compliance, they will not be able to give away your data.
Download Silent Circle here .
3) Use pre-paid phones to make important calls
There's a reason pre-paid cellphones are still popular. Known as "burners" on the street, pre-paid cell-phones may still be tracked, but are much harder to pin back to you. Buy the phone with cash and there will be no paper trail leading back to you. Once you make call or calls you need kept private, dispose or destroy the phone in a public area. These phones are cheap enough that they can be bought and thrown away regularly.
4) Remove your phone battery when not in use.
The NSA is able to spy not only on your conversations, but also on your location. The NSA can chart your phone's distance to local cell towers to figure out your location. By removing the phone's battery, your cell phone will not send out data that reveals where you are.
5) Join in the fight against the NSA
Americans are not happy with the NSA spying on them, and the backlash has already begun. FreedomWorks is an organization which is bringing civilians together to fight against the NSA. Follow the site's advice, and send a message to Congress demanding that your information remain private!

What do 41, 87 and 1.1 trillion have in common? They're all important numbers this week, where we've compiled seven stats about VR interest, ad spend projections and marketing budgets.
The digital marketing industry is so full of numbers that it can be overwhelming. We've curated seven interesting stats from the last week, starting with one particularly staggering one.
1.1 trillion: The value of Chinese ecommerce market by 2020
China officially became the world's largest ecommerce market last year, surpassing the U.S. Despite a dip in economic growth, that number doesn't look to be slowing down, either. By 2020, the market is estimated to be worth the equivalent of $1.1 trillion.
It's not just China; ecommerce growth in the APAC region is far outpacing the rest of the world. The second-fastest growing market, India, will be worth $75 billion. Another $225 billion represents the combined projected growth for Japan, South Korea and Australia, as well.
2017: The year digital ad spend will surpass TV
According to eMarketer, TV was 37.7 percent of the ad spend last year, compared with digital's 32.6 percent. The gap between digital and TV ad spend keeps getting narrower, with the former set to outpace the latter by next year
eMarketer anticipates that in 2017, TV spend will be $72.01 billion, or 35.8 percent; digital, $77.37 billion, or 38.4 percent. But nothing is growing as quickly as mobile.
Mobile made up 10.9 percent of digital ad spend in 2014, a number that's expected to more-than-double by this year. In 2020, mobile ad spend is even projected to equal that of TV.
41: What percentage of Americans would consider digital subscriptions
While ad blocking continues to rock the publishing world, the industry is also plagued by the struggle to monetize in the digital world. Meclabs surveyed 900 adults about whether or not they'd even consider paying for a digital newspaper subscription.
Only 41 percent said yes, provided the newspaper has a persuasive enough argument. The value of individual subjects varied across demographics. Nearly all adults aged 55-64 (94 percent for both) call international news and politics "essential," compared with 83/84 percent of those 25-34. Along gender lines, 70 percent of men and 70 percent of women prioritize business and finance, and health news, respectively.
33: The percentage of Americans interested in virtual reality
Virtual reality (VR) is touted as the next big thing, but is the industry overplaying its value to the public? Probably.
A new Horizon Media study surveyed 3,000 people, finding that when it comes to VR, only one-third are interested. The numbers are so bleak, in part because three-quarters of consumers find the technology cost-prohibitive. Only one-quarter of the survey respondents said they'd pay more than $250 – less than half the cost of Oculus Rift – on a VR device.
Fifty-five percent plain don't find the technology interesting. But those who do like VR tend to like it a lot; the pro-VR consumers find it twice as exciting as the Apple Watch.
87: What percent of retailers plan to dedicate more money to mobile marketing
The move toward mobile certainly applies to retailers. RetailMeNot released a new report, which found that 87 percent of the 200 retail marketers surveyed plan to invest more in mobile marketing this year.
In fact, 39 percent expect to dedicate at least half their marketing budgets to mobile in 2016. The reason for such high figures? Marketers believe mobile drives sales. Three-quarters of the respondents feel that mobile unique promotion codes provide above average ROI.
60: Number of seconds it takes for marketers to continue a response "real-time"
Similarly, 59 percent of marketers plan to dedicate more of their budgets to real-time marketing, according to Evergage. Like mobile, real-time is seen as having a strong correlation with ROI. Sixty-five percent say real-time marketing drove ROI by at least 50 percent; only 15 percent don't see a connection between the two.
When asked about responding to consumers on social media faster, 95 percent of respondents said it's important; 56 percent "strongly agree." The ideal response time? Less than 60 seconds.
44: The average number of months CMOs stay at brands
According to the 12th annual CMO tenure study by executive search consulting firm Spencer Stuart, the average tenure of CMOs at 100 of the top U.S. consumer brands has declined for the first time in the decade. The average dropped from 48 months to 44, with a median of 26.5 months.
Could the shorter tenures have something to do with the CMOs still establishing their careers? Of the 100 marketers surveyed, 73 percent are in an executive-level role for the first time.
