Advocates of extending unemployment insurance called the Senate's two-month tax and spending agreement reached on Friday a "tempered" victory.
Senate leaders agreed a short-term accord, after deliberating for the past couple of days, to extend the payroll tax cut, unemployment benefits and a Medicare "doc fix" for two months, as Congress looks to leave Washington in plenty of time before Christmas.
The deal means that unemployment benefits will continue to be paid for 99 weeks through the first two months of the year — instead of dropping to 79 weeks in January, as called for under a Republican-sponsored House-passed plan.
"The unemployed can rest assured that they will have benefits through February," Judy Conti, federal advocacy coordinator with the National Employment Law Project, told The Hill.
"It's not the best holiday present but it gets them through the first part of the year," she said.
The concern from supporters is that without a yearlong deal — or at least an agreement through the 2012 elections — is that the legislative posture will return to two- to four-month agreements, which leaves workers and states in a perpetual state of uncertainty about benefits.
In November, the economy created 120,000 jobs and the unemployment rate dropped to 8.6 percent.
But there are still only about 3 million jobs openings for an estimated 14 million job seekers, so making any decrease in federal benefits "grossly unfair," Conti said.
The inability of lawmakers to strike a longer-term deal came down to how to pay for the $190 billon package.
"We extended the payroll tax holiday as far as we could get credible 'pay-fors," Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnellMitch McConnellTrump's isolation grows Ellison: Trump has 'level of sympathy' for neo-Nazis, white supremacists Trump touts endorsement of second-place finisher in Alabama primary MORE (R-Ky.) said Friday. "Our friends on the other side had a lot of difficulty with credible 'pay-fors' for a larger package," he said.
"We wanted to make sure we didn't have any gimmicks, that the 'pay-fors' were legitimate and would be agreed to by everyone were legitimate."
The entire cost of the backstop legislation is a little less than $30 billion and it would be covered entirely by increasing the fees that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac charge mortgage lenders to guarantee repayments of new mortgage loans, according to aides and lawmakers.
Leading senators had spent the day discussing a broader deal that would last 11 months — through the November election that would, most likely, put any additional reauthorizations into the hands of a lame-duck Congress after the 2012 elections.
But they gave up after they were unable to get past a key stumbling block — offsetting cuts to pay for the overall $190 billion package.
On Friday night, Senate Republicans said they were unaware of the 11-month package idea.
Even if there was an aggressive plan to fill all of those jobs, 11 million people would still be out of work, Conti pointed out.
"Essentially lawmakers are punting instead of trying to score a touchdown," she said.
Senate Majority Leader Harry ReidHarry ReidOPINION | 5 ways Democrats can win back power in the states THE MEMO: Trump's base cheers attacks on McConnell It's time for McConnell to fight with Trump instead of against him MORE (D-Nev.) said Friday that "Democrats have worked tirelessly to prevent a thousand-dollar tax increase on middle-class families, but my Republican colleagues wouldn't agree to long-term tax relief unless Democrats agreed to cut Medicare benefits for seniors."
The Senate on Saturday passed the two-month deal and "for the next two months, Democrats will work to extend the middle-class tax cut through the end of the year," Reid said.
"Republicans can either join us, or explain why they want middle-class families' taxes to go up."
The Obama administration signaled it willing to accept the two-month deal churned out by the Senate.
A senior administration official said the deal meets the test of seeing that 160 million taxpayers who won't see their taxes go up on Jan. 1.
"This is an important step toward enacting a key provision of the president's American Jobs Act and a significant victory for the American people and the economy, because as independent analysts have said, failing to extend this tax cut would have had a damaging effect on our recovery and job growth," said White House Communications Director Dan Pfeiffer.
House and Senate Democrats had voiced strong opposition to the immediate cut in weeks of unemployment benefits, as well as an additional cut of 20 weeks — dropping down to 59 weeks by the summer.
House Ways and Means ranking member Sandy Levin (D-Mich.) told The Hill on Friday that drug testing and GED requirements were off the table in negotiations, two components of the House-passed bill.
"We are fighting to preserve the program," he said.
Advocates for the unemployment insurance extension have conceded that a compromise bill will probably include fewer than the 99 weeks they want.
Supporters, including Bill Samuel, government affairs director at the AFL-CIO, said he expected a compromise to come in between 79 and 85 weeks.
Democrats in both chambers along with unemployment benefits advocates are pressing for a continuation of the maximum of 99 weeks — that includes a maximum of 26 weeks provided by the states and up to 73 weeks for those in states with, usually, double-digit unemployment levels.
The Republican package cut benefits to 79 weeks beginning in 2012 with another 20-week decrease to 59 weeks in the summer, a move Democrats have said they strongly oppose.
Talk around the Capitol hallways has been that a compromise could mean about 79 weeks of federal benefits — in line with a 20-week cut mentioned by President Obama in his jobs bill.
That is a possibility when lawmakers resume negotiations in February, which is expected to be heated over the cost of the extension and how to pay for it.
About 10 states still have unemployment rates above 10 percent, although Georgia announced Friday that the state's jobless rate had dropped from 10.2 percent to 9.9 percent, the largest decrease in state history.
Senate Democrats expressed confidence on Friday night that they have the upper hand in February, especially on the millionaires surtax that, which has, so far, has been rejected in the upper chamber, as few other options remain on how to pay for the bill.
Democrats were opposed to further cuts to the federal workforce, while Republicans refused to consider any tax increases.
So don't expect a quick and fast fight in February.
"We'll fight this again when it comes up in two months and I think the public is going to be on our side," said Tom HarkinTom HarkinDistance education: Tumultuous today and yesterday Grassley challenger no stranger to defying odds Clinton ally stands between Sanders and chairmanship dream MORE (D-Iowa), chairman of the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee.

Coming to theaters on November 23, 2016 is the latest animated feature from Walt Disney Studios – Moana.
Moana stars the voice talents of Dwayne Johnson and new comer Auli'i Cravalho.
Three thousand years ago, the greatest sailors in the world voyaged across the vast Pacific, discovering the many islands of Oceania. But then, for a millennium, their voyages stopped – and no one knows why.
From Walt Disney Animation Studios comes Moana, a sweeping, CG-animated feature film about an adventurous teenager who sails out on a daring mission to save her people. During her journey, Moana (voice of Auli'i Cravalho) meets the once-mighty demigod Maui (voice of Dwayne Johnson), who guides her in her quest to become a master wayfinder. Together, they sail across the open ocean on an action-packed voyage, encountering enormous monsters and impossible odds, and along the way, Moana fulfills the ancient quest of her ancestors and discovers the one thing she's always sought: her own identity. Directed by the renowned filmmaking team of Ron Clements and John Musker (The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, The Princess & the Frog) and produced by Osnat Shurer (Lifted, One Man Band), Moana sails into U.S. theaters on Nov. 23, 2016.
Fun Fact: Filmmakers auditioned hundreds of talented young women throughout the Pacific Islands before finding the gifted Native Hawaiian Auli'i Cravalho, who did not initially pursue the coveted role. The film's Hawai'i-based casting director recalled her singing performance from a video submission for a fundraiser/talent showcase and asked Auli'i to come in and try out. Three auditions later, including her first trip to Burbank, Calif., she earned the title role, thanks to raw talent.
Check out the film's trailer.
It looks really good. I especially love how realistic the scenery looks. I also love the pig, Pua. I need to get a plush version of him (her?). How cute!
For more information about Moana you can visit the official website, Disney.com/Moana. You can also follow the film on Facebook and Twitter. In addition you can check out Disney Animation on Instagram and Tumblr.
What do you think about the film? Do you think you'll go and see it in theaters this November?

Marriage proposal at 2,000 feet ends with a shock
An incredible story is emerging from a hot air balloon crash that was caught on camera yesterday in Noblesville.
The balloon collided with power lines. Luckily, none of the seven people on board were seriously hurt.
In fact, two of the people on board, couldn't be happier.
"It's perfect. It's better than I could have hoped for," said bride-to-be Brandi Runyan.
You'd probably expect to hear something similar from any woman as she gazes at her two karat diamond engagement ring, the day after the man she loves proposes.
"He's everything that I ever hoped to have," said Runyan.
"She told me from the get go, 'When you propose, I want a story to tell,'" said Runyan's fiance Stephen Richardson.
Does Runyan ever have a story for the grandkids now.
"It was the perfect moment. The perfect ring with undoubtedly the perfect man," said Runyan.
Runyan said 'yes' from 2,000 feet in the air during a hot air balloon ride Saturday night that Richardson had planned for months.
"We had probably about a half hour of floating, enjoying it all," Richardson said about the ride after the proposal.
Then came something the couple wasn't expecting.
"For whatever reason, we got over the power lines and we just started dropping," explained Richardson.
"I remember thinking, we're going to hit those power lines because there was no way to miss," Runyan added.
There wasn't anything anyone could do though.
"The basket, went under, the balloon went over. I think there were about 12 steel cables, quarter inch steel cables and we cut nine of them during the first pop," said Richardson of the moment when they first hit the lines.
Then there were sparks everywhere and we're not talking about the kind between two people in love.
"The pilot was yelling down to the ground crew 'call the fire department,'" remembered Richardson. "We were probably there for a couple seconds, but it felt like 5 to 10 minutes and it was, 'ok, what happens now'....Somehow we drifted back off and came up and hit the power lines again and kind of bounced over them that time."
Then just as quickly, the balloon and every one inside it's basket, was on the ground and safe.
"It actually wasn't that bad all things considered," said Richardson.
Their unforgettable engagement ride, said the couple, is sort of a metaphor for love and marriage.
"Love has its ups and its downs, just like on a balloon ride," said Runyan.
They've got a piece of the charred hot air balloon to prove it.
"That's our souvenir," said Richardson, holding up the blackened fabric where he scribbled in marker, "She said yes."
A day later, Runyan and Richardson are glad to be safe and hoping for a long and happy marriage
"I hope that we can celebrate 65, 70 years together," said Runyan.
Suggested Links
They hope for plenty of romantic spark between them too, to keep it going.
"I think sparks in a marriage are a good thing," said Richardson.
They just don't want to the kind of sparks again that come from a hot air balloon hitting power lines while they're riding in it.

The Golden House
The centre of the New Town of Houten is undergoing a metamorphosis. As part of this process we proposed the construction of a pavilion on the main market square of the city. The pavilion should be regarded, almost literally, as a precious stone or a jewel, embedded into the surface of the square.
The building is designed integrally with its environment together with the nearby terrace and bridge. It is conceived as a solid sculptural golden mass, rising from the basalt surface of the terrace. The program consists of a bar, a restaurant and meeting rooms divided between three levels and inter-connected by spatial voids.

Author | Pallavi Goorha | Monday, Dec 11,2006 8:44 AM
ESPN-STAR Sports has bagged the broadcast rights for all ICC events for an eight-year period starting from 2007 to 2015. A statement issued by the ICC announcing the winner said, "The decision was a unanimous one, taken by the ICC Board in Dubai on Saturday, and the ICC will now seek to reach final agreement with ESPN-STAR Sports."
R C Venkateish, Managing Director, ESPN-STAR India, said, "The rights will start from September next year with the 20-20 World Cup." He, however, declined to comment on the valuation of the deal, saying ICC and the broadcaster had decided not to disclose the sum.
The rights encompasses two World Cups (in 2011 and 2015) and major tournaments such as the Champions Trophy in 2008, 2010, 2012 and 2014, two Twenty-20 World Cups, the Women's World Cup and and Intercontinental Cup, among others.
Global Cricket Corporation holds ICC's existing telecast rights and the term expires after next year's World Cup in West Indies. GCC had bagged the rights for $532 million.
According to sources close to the development, ESPN-STAR Sports had the highest bid of $1.1 billion, which edged out closest competitor Nimbus, which had reportedly bid $900 million. Among other contenders, Zee Sports bid $850 million while Dubai-based Ten Sports gave a joint bid with Infront Productions of $825 million. Sunil Gavaskar and Harsha Bhogle made a presentation on behalf of ESPN-STAR sports.
Commenting on the decision to name ESPN-STAR Sports as its preferred bidder, ICC President, Percy Sonn, said, "We are absolutely delighted that after an open and transparent process, we have what we believe to be the best deal for cricket. All the bids we received were of a very high standard and we would like to thank the unsuccessful organisations for their submissions. However, the Board was unanimous in the view that the ESPN-STAR Sports bid was the best, and we believe all of our 97 members will gain significant benefit from an agreement with ESPN-STAR Sports."
Sonn further said, "The revenue that will come into the game as a result of this deal will ensure every one of those members will be able to plan for the future with certainty, allowing us to make our strong sport even stronger. ESPN-STAR Sports has an outstanding reputation as a sports broadcaster and we are delighted that we have found an outstanding partner to provide coverage of the game for the next eight years."
Jamie Davis, Managing Director, ESPN-STAR Sports, said, "This acquisition affirms our commitment to the Indian sub-continent and the world and we are absolutely delighted to bring the exciting line-up of ICC Events to millions of cricket fans globally. Our company has done pioneering work in showcasing cricket in an entertaining and informative way and we will continue to innovate and extend the excitement of cricket through to 2015."

"Great care by staff overloaded with Work"
About: Milton Keynes Hospital Milton Keynes Hospital Milton Keynes MK6 5LD
Posted by Anonymous
Working in a hospital myself I am fairly understanding of how staff cope with and handle things thrown at them.
1/ Reception staff/ Appointments team- considering I have been under treatment for the last year and it is on-going with not the best results so far, the staff that I have dealt with on the front line have been mainly wonderful, full eye contact, smiling, listening all the things that you need.
2/ Department HCA/ Nurses- busy, and because of this, unable to offer the same level of polite communication.
3/ Consultant- wonderful when you can get in to see them, having to wait months in-between appointment is annoying when your trying to deal with a on-going issue, its not their fault though, they just have a lot of patients on their books, but January to July is a long time in-between visits, especially when your in pain and need to discuss things .
4/ Radiologist- treatment is informed, communicative, consultants actually care, they asked for feed back as I was revisiting with in a month from an ultrasound guided injection.

There's no separate season ticket for FIFA 13 or FIFA 14, it's all the same. But as Kristi said above, the season ticket is only available for consoles.

Since 2015, RKD – Netherlands Institute for Art History, Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam (SMA) and the University of Amsterdam (UvA) proudly present the annual Visiting Fellow of Contemporary Art.
Professor Emeritus Martha Rosler will be the third Visiting Fellow who will give two public lectures: one at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, and one at the RKD, The Hague. On January 8th, she will lecture during the first Stedelijk Sunday Seminar of 2017, as part of the theoretical lecture series of the museum.
Martha Rosler is an artist and activist who works in video, photography, text, installation, and performance. Her work focuses on the public sphere, exploring issues from everyday life and the media to architecture and the built environment, especially as they affect women. Rosler has for many years produced works on war and the national security climate, connecting life at home with the conduct of war abroad, in which her photomontage series played a critical part. The Stedelijk Museum acquired a selection of photomontages for the collection in 2010. She has also published several books of photographs, texts, and commentary on public space, ranging from airports and roads to housing and gentrification. A retrospective of her work has been shown internationally, and her writing is published widely in publications such as Artforum, e-flux journal, and Texte zur Kunst.

The Everglades are the only place on Earth where Alligators and Crocodiles live side by side. Visiting the Everglades will require long drives so your rental car will be essential. Flamingo, the main hub of the Everglades is 38 miles long, however the scenery is unique and dramatic and well worth a visit. Drive to Biscayne Bay and enjoy the beautiful coastline and the Miami Port; bustling with cruise liners. Why not take a Miami Seaplanetour unique to the area, an exciting way to see the city and soak up the atmosphere. Drive toCrandon Beach Park with excellent surf the beach attracts many wind surfers, or Cape Florida Lighthouse. Finally drive to Florida Bay North and tour the areas beaches, parks and coastline.
Alternatively drive from Miami Airport to Florida Keys, on to John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park, Key West and then to Islamoranda. Florida Keys offers many activities; Biscayne Bay is home to many varieties of tropical fish, why not charter a boat and catch a prize fish, snorkel or scuba dive to see a ship wreck on the ocean floor.

Florida Keysoffers alternatives to a beach holiday with many golf courses, shops, museums and art galleries there is something for all tastes. John Pennekamp Coral Reef Park is another great place to visit for scuba, snorkelling heading out on a glass bottom boat. Islamoranda is comprised of six villages and is one of the only places to catch sail fish in the morning or venture out into the backcountry and catch bonefish, or snook in just inches of water.

Somehow it dawns on me. I'm awake. There isn't much else making sense right now, but I know that I'm awake, conscious. This isn't a dream. The next thing that dawns on me is my head, and particularly, me headache. It's throbbing, like nothing I've ever felt before. Every beat of my heart feels like a mallet pounding away at the front of my skull. It's almost enough to drown out the noise around me, which leads to the third realization–noise, of which there is very little. Calming down, working through the pounding sensation in my head, I listen, and aside from a dull hum, I hear nothing. Moving my eyes around, another realization–I'm blindfolded. The surprise leads me to jerk my head forward, only to be met by the sensation of a strong strap holding it down. I'm lying down. There's no doubt about that. Not only is there a strap holding my head down to this stiffly-padded table, but other straps are holding down my chest, belly, biceps, forearms, wrists, thighs, above and below the knees, and my ankles. I can struggle, but there isn't much play, nor am I able to extricate myself from this position. There's something strapped over my nose and mouth. I'd know if it was a gas mask, but this isn't one. Definitely a blindfold over my eyes, and some sort of breathing mask tightly enveloping my mouth and nose. Meanwhile, this headache.

Various types of rats, including the brown rat or barn rat (Rattus norvegicus), are often found living in barns. Rats are a nuisance to many farmers because they eat grain and animal feed and carry diseases. In some cases, barn rats will attack livestock, especially poultry and juvenile animals. Take immediate steps to minimize your livestock and grain losses by killing or removing rats in your barn.
Things You'll Need
- Rat trap
- Rat poison
- Bucket
- Lumber
- Peanut butter
- Ultrasonic rodent device
- Rat repellent spray
- Cats
Set up rat traps to trap and kill the rodents. Place the traps in areas frequented by rats. Focus on common hiding or traveling areas such as along barn ceiling beams or behind trash containers. Set the traps up in the evening and put them away in the day time to minimize the chances of catching other animals, such as squirrels or birds.
Use rat poison to kill the rats. Rat poison can come as chunks of poison or as granules. Place the poison in areas that you've noticed rats or near common rat attractants such as feed storage containers. Exercise extreme caution when using rat poison if you have livestock or pets in the barn.
Build a homemade humane rat trap if you don't want to kill the rats. Set up a bucket in your barn at dusk. Lean a piece of lumber against the outside of the bucket, forming a ramp from the ground to the bucket's edge. Scoop a large spoonful of peanut butter into the bottom of the bucket. The rats will smell the peanut butter and scramble up the piece of lumber. Once they jump inside the bucket, they will not be able to climb out. Drive the rats several miles away from your barn and release them.
Turn on an ultrasonic rodent repellent device. These emit a high-pitched screech that is inaudible to humans but intolerable to rats. Place the devices throughout your barn. This option may cause stress to other animals and should be avoided if you house livestock in the barn.
Spray rodent repellent solution around your barn, especially on areas like feed storage bins that attract rats. The sprays mimic the smells of predators and will scare the rats away.
Get cats. Barn cats are a popular method of both rat removal and rodent deterrence. Train the cats to stick around the barn by keeping their food and water in the barn. Feed the cats only as much as they will eat in a sitting to prevent excess cat food from being left out, which may attract rats.
Tips & Warnings
- Discourage rats from taking up residence within your barn by securing all grain and feed items in sealed storage bins.

At a meeting with 115 outstanding businesspeople in Hanoi on Saturday, President Quang said the 12th National Party Congress was determined to push ahead with a comprehensive national reform and businesspeople were considered a vanguard force in the process.
Mr. Quang said: "I expect Vietnamese businesspeople to develop specific action programs for production, trade, and market expansion, promote internal strength, attract foreign resources, acquire advanced technology and managerial knowledge, and improve product and service quality to strengthen Vietnam's trademarks internationally."

(Adds details on the strike, comment from Bombardier and background on the plant)
By Solarina Ho and Susan Taylor
TORONTO, July 14 (Reuters) - About 900 workers at Bombardier Inc's railcar production facility in Thunder Bay, Ontario, went on strike on Monday afternoon after contract talks hit an impasse over pension changes and benefit reductions.
The union, Unifor Local 1075, said its contract with Montreal-based plane and train maker Bombardier expired on May 31 and workers have been free to strike legally since June 10. No new talks are scheduled.
"We've rejected their last offer," Jerry Dias, president of Unifor, Canada's biggest private-sector union, said in an interview. "We have zero interest in that."
Bombardier's latest proposal would enroll new hires in a defined contribution pension plan instead of the current defined benefit plan, and workers who started after May 2010 would lose their post-retirement benefits, Dias said.
Union members at the Thunder Bay plant, which is in northwestern Ontario, held a three-day strike over similar pension issues in 2011 before Bombardier dropped the proposals.
"Bombardier Transportation is deeply disappointed that members of Unifor Local 1075 have made this decision to strike," said spokesman Marc Lefebvre, adding that the company felt it offered employees "a good contract proposal...that provides for well-paid jobs".
Lefebvre declined to provide details on how Bombardier would deal with the impact of the strike.
The Thunder Bay plant is currently working on multibillion-dollar contracts primarily for the Toronto area's transit system, including new subway and commuter-rail cars, and next-generation streetcars and light rail cars.
The union, which is concerned about production moving to Mexico, is also pressing Bombardier about the fate of some 300 plant jobs after a key rail program concludes next year.
"We can't even get straight answers from them about what they're going to be doing with the 300 people who may very well lose their jobs," Dias said. (Editing by Chris Reese; and Peter Galloway)

|DO NOT REPLY [Bug 37926] New: - BasicDataSource.createDataSource() memory leak on SQLExceptions
|Thu, 15 Dec 2005 23:47:53 GMT
DO NOT REPLY TO THIS EMAIL, BUT PLEASE POST YOUR BUG· RELATED COMMENTS THROUGH THE WEB INTERFACE AVAILABLE AT <http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=37926>. ANY REPLY MADE TO THIS MESSAGE WILL NOT BE COLLECTED AND· INSERTED IN THE BUG DATABASE. http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=37926 Summary: BasicDataSource.createDataSource() memory leak on SQLExceptions Product: Commons Version: unspecified Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows XP Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Dbcp AssignedTo: email@example.com ReportedBy: firstname.lastname@example.com Using: commons-dbcp-1.2.1 commons-pool-1.2 When using BasicDataSource, if the datasource is initialized while the database is down, or a wrong user/pass is given, each call to getConnection() results in a memory leak. Here's what I've tracked down: In the BasicDataSource.createDataSource method, if the datasource was previously un-initialized, a new GenericObjectPool (or AbandonedObjectPool depending on configuration) is always instantiated. The GenericObjectPool constructor (and also the call to setTimeBetweenEvictionRunsMillis()) starts a new thread for the Evictor. This thread runs until it's cancel() is called. The problem is that if a SQLException is thrown when the PoolableConnectionFactory is instantiated (like with a bad user/pass), the exception is rethrown, but no attempt is made to clean up the Evictor thread that was started in the GenericObjectPool, so that thread just keeps running forever. Since this happens before the datasource was created, the next call to getConnection() will again attempt to re-initialize the datasource in createDataSource(), and if the same error happens again, another Evictor thread will be left running, -> repeat a few thousand times and it starts to bring down systems. Changing BasicDataSource to only initialize the connectionPool when it is null seemed resolve the issue. Alternatively, catching the exception, and calling close() on the pool (which then cancel()'s the Evictor) also seemed to work.

When it comes to breast augmentation, the "have they" or "haven't they" question haunts many of our favourite Hollywood starlets. But whether or not they've gone under the knife, the breast trends of Tinseltown are what influence the cosmetic surgery decisions made by females all over the world. Providing insight in to the world of celeb surgery, Senior Surgeon from The Cosmetic Institute, Dr Huy Tang, shares his views on the good, the bad and the ugly side of celebrity breast augmentation.
Going…Going…Gone too far!
According to Dr Tang, serial implant enthusiast Heidi Montag has simply gone too far. Starting out as a modest B cup, Heidi has made her way to a generous G. "When women request such a drastic change, I'm always careful to make sure that they understand how this will affect their lifestyle. Whether natural or augmented, large breasts like this can increase the risk of complications and lead to back and shoulder problems as well," he said.
Athletic assets
According to Dr Tang, whose patients have included personal trainers, body builders, professional swimmers and even Mixed Martial Arts fighters; breast augmentation is a popular procedure for women with an athletic physique. "These athletic women generally have a lower body fat percentage, meaning they tend to lose a fair amount of their breast volume."
According to Dr Tang, Cameron Diaz is a great example of a celebrity who has selected the perfect sized implant to complement her athletic frame, going from what looks like a small B cup to a C cup. "It's very important that patients who are active consider their lifestyle before choosing their implant size, so that they don't become a hindrance to physical activity," he said.
When something goes wrong…
One of the most infamous displays of curious cleavage has to be Tori Spelling's. According to Dr Tang, this is an example of a condition called "pectus-excavatum," which is a sunken breast bone. "This condition will make the augmented breasts appear 'crossed eyed' as they fall inwards towards the concavity. This effect can be magnified when larger implants are used, so instead of camouflaging the problem, it actually makes it look worse," said Dr Tang.
To bolt, or not to bolt?
When you think of obvious breast implants, Victoria Beckham is one of the first celebs that comes to mind, having since had them removed. This obvious "bolt-on" style of implants is in stark contrast to our very own Miranda Kerr's suspected upsize. According to Dr Tang, Victoria's implants have been inserted above the muscle, which is why they have that unnatural, bolt-on effect. "This "sub-glandular" look is not something women request much anymore," he says. "In fact, there are three names women most often mention when explaining what they don't want. And that's Dolly Parton, Pamela Anderson and Victoria Beckham."
Yummy mummies
"One of the most common groups of women to get breast implants at The Cosmetic Institute, are mums," says Dr Tang. "Unfortunately, motherhood can result in breasts becoming deflated and saggy to varying degrees and one of the most successful ways to fix this is through breast augmentation," he said. While neither Sarah Jessica Parker nor Nicole Kidman have ever publicly confirmed going under the knife, Dr Tang believes both may have made the transition from an A to a natural looking D. He also points out that "glam grans" are starting to emerge as well. "Breast augmentation has become much more socially acceptable and we are seeing an increasing trend of older women undergoing augmentation," he said. "My oldest patient is in her mid-sixties," he added.
Keepin' it real
In stark contrast to the Heidi's, Tori's and Victoria's of the celeb world, Hollywood darlings Kate Hudson and Taylor Swift have played it safe by opting to stay relatively small. "Not all women choose to have a significant enhancement," says Dr Tang. "Many, who have been flat chested their whole lives, are happy to go up to a modest B cup."
Dr Tang believes both Hudson and Swift have done a good job of taking their own shape and size into consideration when deciding on the size of their implants. "At The Cosmetic Institute, we base our surgical recommendations on a mathematical formula that takes a client's height, weight, chest width, and existing breast tissue and skin elasticity into consideration, in order to achieve the most natural looking results."
The Cosmetic Institute operates two clinics, in Sydney's Parramatta and Bondi Junction, with a host of highly trained cosmetic surgeons offering exceptional surgical outcomes, patient care and support at a fair price. Breast augmentation is available for $5,990.

Who's responsible for merging changes between branches so that unstable gets all the changes that go into stable and trunk? That seems likely to be painful. Also, is the expectation that a given module only goes in one place (so transactions, if high-quality, have source only in stable or whatever), or is the same code in all 3 and you're just expected to know where to work on it? If the latter, that sounds unwieldy too. If the former, then we should just have 2 or 3 separate dirs with their own trunk, branches, and tags, right? Aaron

Government aid as a teenage single parent.
This can be very tricky depending on the rules where you live. If you still like with your parents their income and resources may be considered instead of your own. If you live outside of the home you generally have to show some sort of legal documentation of marriage or emancipation in order to be considered a non dependent. The best advice is to talk to a social worker at social services. They want to help you but you have to be very honest about your situation in order for them to do that.
Comment deleted
Right, I was just thinking of the teenage parent who either is or is not a dependent of their parents. You can say you don't live with your parents but without some documentation you will be required to submit their income regardless since they are legally responsible.
Very important to note that. There are some people that put a different address down so it looks like they don't live at home so they can get benefits. You can lose your benefits and future benefits if you try to defraud the government. There is help, just have to ask and be honest about it.

Dealing with a loss to your home or business is devastating; relying on someone you can trust is the first step to getting your life back to normal. Knowing what to expect is helpful in bringing peace of mind.
Below is a guide of what to expect when an insurance claim is made on damage to your home or business:
1) Our certified and trained estimator will meet with you personally to gather ALL the critical information necessary (pictures, measurements, etc.) in order to provide an accurate and detailed estimate.
2) Using the software, Xactimate , utilized by 80% of insurance agencies, we quickly prepare a fair and honest estimate.
3) Your estimator will then meet with your assigned insurance adjuster on-site to walk through each line item of their estimates, determining any differences, and preventing critical items from being missed.
4) Because we work with insurance providers on a daily basis, we are able to advocate on your behalf to ensure all the necessary repairs are agreed upon and that you are compensated in full for your loss.
5) Our Accounting Manager will bill your insurance company directly, and will personally walk you through the process, which can be complicated and frustrating at times.

Question: Suppose that a thrift institution s liquidity division estimates that it
Suppose that a thrift institution's liquidity division estimates that it holds $19 million in hot money deposits and other IOUs against which it will hold an 80 percent liquidity reserve, $54 million in vulnerable funds against which it plans to hold a 25 percent liquidity reserve, and $112 million in stable or core funds against which it will hold a 5 percent liquidity reserve. The thrift expects its loans to grow 8 percent annually; its loans currently total $117 million but have recently reached $132 million. If reserve requirements on liabilities currently stand at 3 percent, what is this depository institution's total liquidity requirement?

Dedicated to the preservation of California's native plants
The mission of the California Native Plant Society is to increase understanding and appreciation of California's native plants and to conserve them and their natural habitats through education, science, advocacy, horticulture and land stewardship.
Workshop: Backpacking 201
Thursday, July 13, 7:00 – 9:00 pm, SLO Vets Hall
This is an opportunity to meet hikers who have spent time on the PCT (Pacific Crest Trail).
They will bring their equipment to illustrate what essentials are needed for a backpacking trip, how to lighten one's load before you get out on the trip, and discuss an assortment of food options to consider.
Join backpackers Bill and Diana Waycott, Jacqui Stone, and Timothy Kershaw of the Sierra Club and the California Native Plant Society for this workshop.
Meet at the SLO Vet's Hall, 801 Grand Ave. Bring questions and equipment, if you think it needs a critique.
For more information, contact Bill at (805) 459-2103, email@example.com.
Workshop: Survey of a Rare Plant Habitat
Saturday, July 22, 8:30-11:30 am, Los Osos
If you have an interest in collecting data at a rare plant habitat site, please join plant biologists Melissa Mooney and Bill Waycott for this workshop.
San Luis Obispo County is home to many rare plant habitats, most of which have not been surveyed in many years. We will work in teams to identify and record the dominant plant species within a 60-foot radius from a predetermined GPS point. We plan to survey other rare plant habitats in the county over the next two years. This data will be forwarded to the state office for inclusion in the Manual of California Vegetation.
Please meet at the corner of Highland Drive and Broderson Ave. in Los Osos.
Bring a clipboard, sharpened pencil with a good eraser, a phone or device that reads GPS locations (if available), along with a hat, water, and snacks.
For more information, contact Melissa at 459-8099, email@example.com.

OCTOBER SEED EXCHANGE – Marti Rutherford There WILL be a seed exchange at our October meeting, and so we will need seeds. Many of our natives are just beginning to flower. But seed set has already occurred on some plants, such as manzanita. So keep your observational skills tuned and your collecting bags ready. Don't forget the flowers that bloom in the summer and early fall.
NEW VEGETATION COMMITTEE BEING FORMED Are you interested in vegetation sampling? Do you have a favorite plant community, alliance or association? Then please contact Melissa Mooney, chair of the newly-enlivened Vegetation/Plant Communities committee of our SLO Chapter (email: firstname.lastname@example.com). We've been in touch with Julie Evens and Jennifer Buck of the State CNPS Vegetation Program, and will be coordinating with the folks in the East Bay Chapter who are doing similar work. First order of business will be to prioritize what communities need focus for possible assessment and mapping and lay out our goals. Serpentine communities? Morro manzanita maritime chaparral? Valley Oak Savanna? Get those ideas coming and lets do some sampling!

Braised Rabbit
Recipe by Dreamgoddess
Posted in response to a request for recipes using rabbit. This recipe is from the cookbooklet "Blue and Grey Cookery - Authentic Recipes from The Civil War Years".
Top Review by RogerOH
First of all let me state that my Father use to make the most wonderful fried rabbit. This recipe comes real close to his. The best fried rabbit I have tried yet on my search for his. We used wild rabbit and it turned out tender and tasty. I ran a little short on the egg wash and will double the wash the next time. I would also added more water, perhaps another cup, will simmering. There was not much liquid left for gravy. Thank you for posting.

7 hours later, and still on the XIV ZAM main page is what amounts to an ad for Rifts. And the forums remain silent.
The silence speaks volumes.
Admittedly, I lurk. And I'm good at it. I lurked here during XI, and for months during XIV. But, honestly, this is a kick in a tender place. Well-placed, might I add.
Perhaps I am a bit ****** off. It might have something to do with the fact that we the players voted overwhelmingly "Content" in the first players poll. Or that, since that day, we have received nothing for content. Or perhaps it's the fact that, though we have gotten nothing along the lines of additional things to do in XIV, Yoshi tends to throw out the word "Content" every third sentence in his "Letters from the Producer", while still focusing entirely on the UI (Thus far. Apparently future patches will tell the tale) which if one reads between the lines on his first letter was -his- major beef with the game...
...Perhaps it's the fact that Yoshi's idea of UI fixes don't match up with mine. I.E., a way to find a bloody party without having to donate my firstborn on the appropriate day when the stars align...
...No. No, that all ****** me off....but it's not that.
It's the fact that I couldn't answer "Nuking the **** out of everything still moving" as to how I prefer to spend my time playing XIV.
I don't want to be a cure-bot. I don't want to buff/debuff/scratch-***. I want to kill it with fire. And lightning.
But now I have to read about Rifts on the ZAM welcome page? WTF?
...wait...do they have blm love over yonder?
(Apologies if this offends. Tequila is bad. And no doubt I'll regret this in the morning. But that's how it goes.)
Edit: Tequila. See above. >.<

At the time that the Caliber first came out, Dodge might have been at the leading edge of a new small-car styling movement; alas, the Caliber's bold, upright style never quite caught on, and that leaves the 2012 Dodge Caliber looking like an outsider today. Upgraded for the 2010 model year, the interior is pleasant but far less distinctive.
With sheetmetal that's a little overwrought, and a chunky, gawky, slab-sided look from the front or back--combined with a taller-than-typical, almost-crossover profile, the Caliber simply now has trouble fitting in with anything else on the market.
The 2012 Dodge Caliber looks gawky and dated on the outside, but inside its chunky, upright look still has some design appeal.On the inside, the look is more ordinary, with the chunky, angular look that Dodge was trying to imbue in all its products before casting its trucks outward as Ram products and softening its cars and crossovers a bit. While the Caliber's dash and door designs haven't changed much, the instrument panel, center console and storage bin, and door panel trims were resurfaces with higher-quality plastics--some of them soft-touch--back in 2010. Cup holders are even illuminated by LED lighting, and Dodge is proud of the "bright accents" throughout the interior, including chromed surrounds for the heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning vents, the shift bezel, and the instrument cluster rings. We'd hardly call the Caliber top-notch inside, but it's pretty well coordinated.
