Detailed Description:
Lung metastasectomy is the only therapeutic option to provide a long-survival in patients with colorectal lung metastases. Recent studies have shown that radiofrequency (RF) ablation is a safe and useful therapeutic option for the treatment of unresectable lung metastases. In this phase-II trial, clinical utility of lung RF ablation will be evaluated in patients with resectable colorectal lung metastases.

Self Report
MA project
MA project
Visualizing structural character elements
Our character is the combination of our unique mental and spiritual characteristics and behaviors.
It is the way we think and the way we feel. It is an ensemble of characteristics that are formed due to some biological, genetic and hereditary as well as environmental factors, like conditions of living and growing up
and interaction with others. They are formed too early in life and stay the same until we die.
Nine people, relatives and friends, chose my structural character elements among a list they were given.
The first eight, in descending order according to the frequency of appearance in the answers, were designed
in a series of posters, one for each:
Organizing - Persistent - Perfectionist - Trustworthy - Analytic - Headstrong - Competitive - Restrained
The next three in line, let's call them behavior elements instead of character elements, were used as principles for the design, production and presentation of the project:
Seeking recognition: The poster size is 70 x 100 cm, making the whole project impose upon any other when all the posters are spread.
Tight with money: Although the posters are big and imposing, their production is totally low-budget, using black & white xerographic printing.
Resourceful: The project consists of 9 parts, which can be wrapped up in two, while one of the papers,
when folded, works as a bag for the others.
Thank You!

Should There be an Automatic Filter for Pornographic Web Sites?
Expand Messages
- Libertarian Alliance
Contact Details: Dr Sean Gabb
07956 472 199, sean@... <mailto:sean@...>
Wednesday the 19th December 2012
Immediate release
http://www.libertarian.co.uk/multimedia/2012-12-19-porn-sig.mp3 <http://www.libertarian.co.uk/multimedia/2012-12-19-porn-sig.mp3>
Flash Animation
Sean Gabb, Director of the Libertarian Alliance, speaking on BBC Radio Ulster <javascript:void(0)/*370*/>on the 19th December 2012.
The question was whether there should be an automatic filter on pornographic web sites, to protect children from the horrors of nudity and sex. Such content would still be available to adults who explicitly asked for the filter to be removed in their case, and who were not scared of being put on a list of know sex perverts. NB, the British Government had recently announced that it would not make any law to compel an automatic filter.
Sean argues these points:
That it should be the right and duty of parents alone to determine what children access on the Internet or generally read and see.
That conservative authoritarians deceive themselves when they think the authorities are fundamentally on their side. The moment you ask for a control to be imposed, you put your trust in people you have never seen, who are not accountable to you, who probably do not share your own values, and who will, sooner or later, use the control you have demanded in ways that you find surprising or shocking.
That the precedent of filtering access to pornography would soon be applied to filtering "hate speech" - and that this would be used to censor disagreement by Christians with gay marriage, or plain political dissent.
In general, Sean says that there should be no controls on the production or distribution of any sexual imagery that is created by and for consenting adults.

It is the perfect, murky conclusion to a grey story in a grey world. Those seeking neat little parables might want to look elsewhere right now.
Wednesday afternoon, a jury in San Francisco convicted Barry Bonds, Major League Baseball's career and single-season home run king, of obstruction of justice, agreeing that some of the testimony he gave before a grand jury hampered a federal investigation into the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative steroid ring.
But on the three perjury counts that were the core of this case, the jury failed to reach a verdict. The eight women and four men couldn't decide whether Bonds lied to that same grand jury when he denied knowingly using performance-enhancing drugs.
A mistrial was declared on those counts, leaving prosecutors with the option of retrying a case that took more than three years to finally make it to court. Meanwhile, Bonds's lawyers have asked that the single guilty count be thrown out, and if the judge opts against that (a hearing is scheduled for next month), they will almost certainly file an appeal.
It is worth pointing out that there was potentially significant evidence the jury was not allowed to hear because Bonds's former trainer, Greg Anderson, the only person who could corroborate it, refused to testify, a decision for which he has twice been jailed. That would include leaked, positive results from what were supposed to be anonymous tests performed by Major League Baseball in 2004.
It also should be noted that a federal appeal court ruled last year that Jeff Novitzky - the zealous investigator in this case, in the perjury case still to come against Roger Clemens, and in alleged doping in cycling including by Lance Armstrong - illegally seized the samples involved in those MLB tests.
The bottom line is that the crusading G-Man Novitzky, who has been accused of being a headline-seeker overly interested in bringing down a big name, didn't get what he was looking for. Even if the conviction is upheld, there is almost no chance that Bonds will go to jail, and it seems highly unlikely the state will retry him on the perjury charges.
And the other bottom line is that most fair-minded people believe Bonds indulged in performance-enhancing drugs at a time when their use was endemic in baseball and in other sports, and understood exactly what he was doing. Knowing everything, including what the jury wasn't told, you'd have to twist yourself in knots to come up with an alternative explanation.
Bonds isn't going into the Hall of Fame, not so long as it is guarded by the moral arbiters of the baseball writers association. Or at least he won't go in two years from now, when he first becomes eligible. If he can stay on the ballot (there's a 10-year window) with all of the great players whose careers took place in the shadow of baseball's don't ask/don't tell era, it's at least possible the doors of Cooperstown may eventually swing open.
But don't expect Bonds to go begging, or apologizing. He's not that kind of guy.
In The New York Times this week, William C. Rhoden argued that although Bonds might not belong on the same list as Paul Robeson and Muhammad Ali, great African-American athletes (in Robeson's case, a great athlete and great artist both) who were dragged down because of their political beliefs, there might well be a comparison in Jack Johnson, the heavyweight champion prosecuted and convicted under the Mann Act, largely because he insisted on keeping the company of white women, because he wasn't shy about it, because he was arrogant, because he didn't know his place.
"In 1913, the government hid behind the Mann Act to prosecute a powerful, prominent black man it felt needed to be taught a lesson," Rhoden wrote. "Now the government has invested eight years and millions of dollars to go after another prominent, powerful black man with a vigor that suggests there is more in play than the altruistic goal of protecting the integrity of a grand jury."
Even if you're not ready to see Bonds as a victim of racism - or as a victim of any sort - everything about this case, everything about the politically opportunistic crusade against drugs in baseball, at the very least seems the equivalent of killing a fly with a hammer.
In this case, a big, arrogant, unlikable and unbowed fly, the easiest target of all.Report Typo/Error

It's a family favourite walk on the Essex Coast (and you can always pick up the Pier Train on the way back!). Southend Pier stretches just over 1 mile out into the Thames Estuary and is one of Britain's best loved piers. Don't miss a tour of the Pier Museum at the Pier reception where you can find out all about the pier's history and visit the great onsite souvenir shop.
Book a cottage in Constable's quintessential English country landscape around Dedham on the Essex/ Suffolk border. Walk in the footsteps of England's famous landscape artist and experience scenes in Dedham Vale & the Stour Valley little changed since Constable's time.
Those in the yachting and sailing 'know' are more than familiar with the spectacular sailing waters of the Essex estuary coast. To experience a taste of it, book a short break in Burnham-on-Crouch during Burnham Week annually in August. It's one of the East Coast's premier sailing regattas!
You'll love Clacton Pier with its many traditional fairground style rides, bowling, cafes and amusements perfect for families. The family friendly sandy beach adjacent is recommended by the Good Beach Guide - perfect for classic seaside weekends this warm summer!
Colchester Castle has the largest Norman Keep in Europe and was built on the foundations of the Temple of Claudius. It's one of Britain's great heritage sites not to be missed on any tour of the country.
Napoleon never arrived on the shores of Britain in the end, but the remains of the mighty Napoleonic Forts and Martello Towers built to defend against potential invasion are numerous along the Essex Coast. The most magnificent of these is the circular Redoubt Fort at Harwich built between 1808 and 1810 to defend the great port of Harwich.
Take your pick of boat trip choice from the ancient Essex coastal town of Maldon overlooking the Blackwater Estuary. Some great replica historic boats sail from Promenade Park and lunch, afternoon tea and evening barge cruises are all on offer sailing towards Osea Island and back!
Visit one of England's most beautiful medieval market towns - Saffron Walden in Essex, which has had a market here since 1141. Markets are held twice weekly on Tuesdays and Saturdays (except on Bank Holidays) through the year in the stunning setting of Market Place.
On the outskirts of Southend towards Westcliff-on-Sea the coastal scene is more relaxed with spectacular views across the estuary towards Canvey. Two seaside gems not to be missed are here. You might have to join a queue on sunny summer days at Rossi's Ice Cream parlour on the seafront, but no visit to Southend is complete without sampling Rossi's delicious ice cream. Just above it sits beautiful Cliffs Pavilion where you can catch an award-winning West End hit musical.
There's so many hidden treasures along the Essex coast to discover this summer. The unspoilt headland coastal heaths around Walton-on-the-Naze near Frinton-on-Sea are a Site of Special Scientific Interest. Enjoy spectacular views towards Harwich on coastal walks here and look out for old World War Two bunkers along the way. An icon in the area is the famous Naze Tower constructed by Trinity House in 1720 to help guide shipping into bustling port Harwich.

Xiaomi Mi Band 2: What we want to see
Come July, and Xiaomi would be celebrating one year anniversary of its $13 Mi Band. It is indeed a no nonsense wearable that offers great value for money. The wearable ridicules almost everyone for making not-so-affordable wearable products as it managed to shake the market.
Fast forward to 2015 and you've got quite a few wearable options, breathing down on Xiaomi's neck which is why it's time for the 'Apple of China' to make its next wearable move. Mi Band 2 has been circling the rumor mills over the past few weeks and while it's hard to suggest what Xiaomi might end up offering but here are few things that we would like to see on the Mi Band v2.0.
If you consider all these features to be bestowed on the Mi Band 2 then expect Xiaomi to price the product at much more than the $13 (or Rs 999) that we have heard of till date. Stay tuned more Mi Band 2 stories just around the corner.

Crawley v Crewe preview
Team news for Tuesday's League One clash between Crawley and Crewe at Crewe Alexandra at Broadfield Stadium.
Last Updated: 26/03/13 3:16pm
Team news for Tuesday's League One clash between Crawley and Crewe at Crewe Alexandra at Broadfield Stadium.
Crawley skipper Josh Simpson hopes to return for the re-arranged visit of the Railwaymen.
The original match was due to be played on Saturday only to be postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.
Six-goal midfielder Simpson has been sidelined for a month after suffering ankle ligament damage during the 1-1 draw against Doncaster but stepped up his training last week.
Defender Joe Walsh would have missed out on Saturday as he was on Wales Under-21 duty but he could now be available.
However, on-loan Millwall striker Aiden O'Brien is with the Republic of Ireland Under-21s for Monday night's friendly against Portugal.
Centre-half Kyle McFadzean will miss out again as he continues to build up his fitness following the virus which struck him down in November.
Crewe will make late checks on three players.
Saturday's planned meeting between the two sides was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch, but the clubs quickly agreed to a new date.
The delay could prove a welcome boost for Steve Davis' side as it has given skipper Luke Murphy and winger Byron Moore more time to recover from injury, while Mathias Pogba has returned from international duty.
But the trio will still have to be assessed ahead of the game. Murphy suffered a slight groin injury in last Tuesday's 2-1 win over MK Dons while Moore is struggling with a dead leg.
Pogba has only just returned to the country after playing half-an-hour for Guinea in their World Cup qualifier against Mozambique on Sunday and may not be risked.
Loanee Brad Inman (ankle) and Jon Guthrie (hernia) are definitely out.

Keeps track of almost everything This app does exactly what it states, works just fine on tablets too. The only thing that would make this product better is if it had a Nicotine calculator/comparator so you could calculate your aprox nicotine usage and compare it with what you use to smoke... guess im stuck using sweet spot as well unless they add this. I'd totally pay for this if it came with the calculator / comparator.
Edmund Villasana
Great App, almost the only one I use...but wish it had... Accomodation for Sub Ohm resistance and addition of amps for calculator, please. Recommend a personal log with a way for me to rate my juices/PV/Purchases so I can look back at what worked for me and what didn't. Not necessarily for the community, but then I can go back and read my own review when someone asks me how I liked ''product x'' you could make it in an Equipment Tab or just add a star rate when you enter a new expense.
Risk Rarius
Almost Perfect This App is all but perfect. You really need to get the Achievements Module working. Otherwise it's almost exceptional. An achievement extension by way of a widget would make it 4 1/2 stars. Being able to post to your Facebook/Twitter Accounts your achievements would make it 5 stars and then some. I'd be happy to pay extra for it should you get those features going.
Barry Grant
Great but needs a few touches Great app keeps you up to date on how much money saved and how many cigs you would of smoked from day 1 of quitting. Only problem I find is that there should be more info and help options when making DIY e juice and include sub ohm resistance when calculating wattage. Keep it simple and free :)
Jeremy West
Really like this app Keeps details of pretty much everything ecig related in my life all in one app. Only thing I feel it needs is a fancier design and maybe some more options. I would definitely pay for that!
Jessie Gerhardt
Want to love this app... ...however, the screen I am on "sticks" and I am unable to back out of it. Hit home, open the app, whichever screen I pick locks me to it - I cannot access the slide back menu at all. Now, I am stuck on the Achievements screen and even going to home and restarting the app takes me right to the achievement screen. I do not want to restart my phone whenever I want to see a new screen. Please help, Vape. You have amazing potential here! <3
michael mccollom
It's not bad 2 big things for me is that the achievements don't work at all and the fact that you can't go below a 1.5 resistance when trying to calculate wattage, besides my subtank I can't remember when I vaped on anything above a 0.8 resistance. Aside from those 2 things it's a nice little app and I will continue to use.
Christodoulos Politakis
Almost perfect The only problem is that it does not unlock achievements, probably a bug but it occurs both on my Xperia Z2 with 5.0.2 and my tablet, running 4.4.2
Aadil Seedat
Good app Very nice n useful. 4th star if the app operated a little smoother n was more intuitive and included a flavour/juice rating and sharing tab. I think a bit of fine tuning is needed. 5th star if the health stats were expanded to have more milestones than just 3month, 1 year and 5 year. There's many more mileatones in quitting smoking...
Chris Jamison
Vape app Nice, useful app. A few issues though. First of all it's difficult to enter exact dollar and cents (have to save first, then go back and edit it). The ability to change tab names would be nice as well. For example, I don't DIY my juice, so I'd like to change recipes to ratings to keep track of my favorites and keep detailed notes about them.
Eh It's nice to see the money and amount not smoked that's about it.....my achievements don't unlock even though I've hit them...it's just a giant counter for me
Jeff Harris
Good but needs improved A solid app. Somethings need improved. The break even date will move as expenses are added. There is no decimal key on the number keyboard, and my expense dates sometimes change. But still a good app 4 stars.
Yvonne Guetter
Vape The feature that keeps me from smoking is the health tab. I like seeing my health improve. I am frustrated that I have no achievements. The app will not display my achievements even though I have not smoked since May 25, 2014.
Matthew Woolner
Lost data about 300 days in Phone just updated and it seems I lost all my data. This was a neat tool and more helpful when I was first getting started. After the first month or so I really just used it to keep general track of my expenses. I broke even about 3 months in and last I checked I was at least $1k better of than off I had been buying cigs all this time. Now that I know I'm spending less, the app is really unnecessary. Still, it would have been cool to see the stats after a full year.
Stewart Lockhart
Just started using app First thing I noticed was that the screen rotation flips if my Samsung Galaxy S4 is on its side even although screen rotate is switched off, also the widget doesn't seem to work, doesn't display any information
kris ohlsson
Good but falls short in a few spots Great app really enjoying seeing myself break even and now it's all money saved. The only things that let it down are as have been mentioned before me; the achievements will not work for me I can work them out myself but would be nice to have it working in the app. Secondly the widget still refuses to function which is definately a shame as this would make the app much more user friendly and quick to check basic progress. Overall though best option for vape app on playstore.
David H
Awesome but.... Achievements don't work, get them working for a 5 star rating even though I have already surpassed most of those achievements by now... Even though this app is incredible I can't give 5 stars with a broken feature.
Gillian Heffern
Pretty good I enjoy that I can keep recipes and I like the comparison of money save and keeping track of what I'm spending.. same complaints as the others though.. would rate this 4 stars if achievements would unlock and decimal points were accessible in expenses... 5 stars if you add in interchangeable/customizable interfaces, and if I could type in a new flavor I'm trying and personally rate it in a 5 star or 1-10 scale... a widget might be cool for it too
luke pogorzelski
Achievement s Please fix the achievements as they don't work been vaping now a month and none of them have opened
Harley J
Great app I just wished the achievements worked. I'd love the extra incentive those pointless achievements give you :p hope it gets fixed in a future update!
Drew Oakley
Was a great app... But since I updated to kitkat, the widget no longer works and stuck on the day i switched, so I uninstalled and tried again, widget still doesn't work and now my achievements aren't registering...
Brian Landry
Near perfect Does everything it claims to do. Only bug I have is the the keypad does not have a decimal point when entering numbers. Using a Galaxy S3 with Android 4.4.2. Stock keyboard. Also the dev's email listed here does not work.
Dominic Duval
Application is wonderful BUT, I have a problem with the resolution on my phone. Seems like there's a part of the screen that's outside on the left.
Spence Bailey
Does exactly what it says I've been keeping track of my dads progress with quitting with this and the progress is amazing!
Mike Daneshrad
Rating for potential App holds a lot of potential, but SERIOUSLY needs to be updated to work with Android Kit Kat 4.4+. Widget doesn't work, achievements don't unlock, dates display wrong day of week (which also tends to change sometimes). REALLY hope developer updates this soon, I hope it's not abandoned! Will update review to 5 stars once bugs are fixed. Want to love this app, and will continue to use it nonetheless, as annoying as the bugs may be....
Tracee Slobodian
This app is amazing! I love the features that has gone into this. Great job!
Luke Smith
The beauty... ... Of this app, was simply 'Vape requires no extra permissions'. And everything else.
Malik Depthside
Can't type a "." ? a pack of crappy cigar-like cigs is like 3.50 if i round up or down it is going to be WAY off. why the hell can't I type a decimal points?
Amber Branning
Love it Love this app...few things though, on ejuice calculator it needs more options..base needs where you can choose a 50/50 ratio..also add option to change ratio of pg to vg..and more flavor spots..other than that its a really great app!! Thanks
Rochelle Krott
Won't work Won't let me add my info just freezes then force closes. Please fix.
Joshua Ungerleider
Achievements Achievements worked on my old phone, HTC EVO LTE, but not on my new LG G3. Would really love this feature to work. Otherwise it's perfect.
Jenney Marsh
Eh My acheivments aren't unlocking. Been almost a week, no cigarettes yet even the one day acheivment of not smoking isn't unlocked. Fix this and I'll rate it 5 stars.
Amy Howard
Widget not working but love the app If I was rating this just on the app it would be 5 stars. The app is great. But the widget doesn't work, it brings through no data. This is one of the main reasons I wanted this app, so a bit disappointing really. Hopefully an update will fix this?!
Hannah Bishop
Cool but... I recently quit smoking by vaping instead.. I really like this app, but my achievements don't work. Little things like that would be really encouraging right now! I hope you fix this soon!!
Mike Joseph
excellent app but achievements wont unlock killer app. i down loaded it on the 11th and it shows how many days i have gone with out a cig and how many i didnt smoke but the achievements for them wont unlock please fix
Eric Swanson
Nice! Pretty much a perfect app for anyone who wants to track the conversion from cigs to vaporizers... Simple and effective.... Thanks!
Mike Jones
So close to being perfect. Just get an ohms law calculator in there and it will probably become the only vape app i need.
Tim Owens
Almost there. I tried to submit a list of bugs I've found as well as some suggestions, however the email address no longer works. If the bugs get fixed and a couple of the key suggestions I've offered get implemented, then this app will deserve a 5 * rating. It's almost there and is heading in the right direction. Here are my bugs/suggestions: (1) I quit smoking on 05/04/2014, but didn't start using the app until today (05/12/2014), however, the app doesn't unlock the achievements for 1 day and 7 days smoke free and so on. Sidenote: I enabled the achievements by moving the switch in settings to "1". (2) When entering expenses, I chose 05/04/2014 for the date, but after saving my expense, the date changes to May, 03, 2014. (3) The wattage calculator only goes up to 12 watts. Some mods now support up to 168 watts. It also only goes as low as 1.5 ohms for resistance, however many vapers are now using sub-ohm coils (below 1 ohm). Needs an advanced calculator interface for experienced vapers without sliders (manual keypad entry) that also shows amps. (4) Cut/copy/paste not available in expenses section. (5) Information section should also display day and week stats.
Matthew Harris
Achievements If the achievements part of the app would work, and send notifications whenever you reach one this app would be exceptional.
Rick Wheeler
Needs backup This was a great app when my phone was running jelly bean but I just had to reenter a years worth of data. Please add some kind of backup feature. Also achievements and widget are no longer working. Galaxy s3 4.4.2
Евгений Скляров
Wrong date. Can't change it What with break-even point? It shows wrong date.
Achievements don't work; and more ingredient fields would be nice,or description text box in recipes.
Very nice app but... Very nice app but not perfect. Achievements don't work at all. The widget does not show any data on my Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge and it's tiny. No sub oHm feature on the calculator. If these were sorted it would be a 5 star app!!!
Andrea Eubanks
Needs some work I really want to like this app, but with the achievements section beind dead it's just not as great. Also, a juice recipe section would be better than a diy juice section. A way to keep up with fave branda and blends and best wattage to vape at etc. Also what about sub ohms for the calculator? I would love to see this app be all it can be!!
Manolo Schilperoort
Cool Good to keep track of expenses and everything else vaping-related. Too bad the achievements don't work.
Sabi - Mrs Bilko
Compliments and suggestion: I absolutely love this app, but some few things would be nice, example, you can't mark and copy what you have written nor insert anything from clipboard, which is an annoyance if you keep track on your expenses, also it would be nice to be able to copy or make a list of something you buy a lot of so it can be added quickly. I would also love to see a battery calculator because that is the only reason I use another app as default, but I would love to let this take its place. Also some more facts about health etc. right now it's a bit inaccurate. Also if you stopped smoking before you got the app the achievements don't become unlocked. ?
Ismael Rodriguez
Take nice app, but... ... The achievements don't work at all and wattage calculator doesn't include sub ohm, which I'd like to upgrade to eventually.
adam hart
Great Would be even better if it had a log of sorts to record ejuice types with retailer etc so I can keep track of what I like in one spot. Also widget seems flaky on 4.4.1 with ART on Nexus 5. Still awesome tho. Also, just noticed achievements don't seem to unlock. My quit date was Dec. 5th but it doesn't reflect 1 day without, etc
adam karlan
Needs tweaking 2.5 stars if I could Achievement section not working. No form of explanation for us new comers on how to properly use all the sections. Tutorial and or instructions would be nice. I feel like some of the financial calculations are off. 10k in a year on analog cigs? I did the math and it doesn't add up. Please fix.
Jason Webb
Great App, But Has Bugs on KitKat My major concern with this app is that achievements do not unlock at all. Also, after adding the widget to my lockscreen, it shows no info at all. It is just blank. I've been enjoying this app very much as it is very useful. I would probably even purchase a paid version of it to support the developer. I just wish it worked as expected. Nexus 5, Android KitKat 4.4.2, Android ART
Aaron Birchley
Nice one. A sweet little app. Keeps track of the important stuff like days smoke free & $ saved. Ejuice & watts calculator, cool "acheivements" & the "health" section is a great touch. Seeing this info really helps you stay on track to a smoke free life. Update: Widget & achievements don't appear to work on HTC One M8 4.4.2
Happi Sabi

Matt Lucas
Good little vaping app Achievements and widget not working but everything else is great. Would be nice if there was a way to backup your info, ie: expenses, date quit, etc. Other than that it's a nice way to track how much you're spending and saving.
Brian Smith
Great Program Keeps track of everything you can think of. The only things I would suggest is a way to export/import or backup your information, so if you to reinstall or install the program on another device.. And a way to have both VG/PG base in the ejuice calculator.
Mandey Clark
Some features don't work I downloaded this yesterday and entered my quit info and it won't unlock my achievements. I've been quit 4 days off tobacco cigs but it won't show those achievements. Otherwise it's a pretty decent app. Oh and the widget is blank and doesn't show my stats. :(
Zachery O'Keefe
Great app. Simple. Does what it should. However, it isn't reporting my achievements properly. I've been clean since July but it doesn't even show that I've been one day cig free. Will rate 5 starts if simple bugs are fixed.
Matt Campbell
It's helpful, but could be much better Achievements do not work. Is useful to keep track of expenses, but could use features like a store finder or something along those lines. Little or no updates from Dev in months.
Daniel Reedy
Great idea, needs some work Obviously, people on Android 4.4 KitKat are having issues, and voicing their opinions bout it. Why the dev isn't doing anything about them, idk. Dates don't enter correctly, achievements won't unlock. App crashes and loses all data at times. Widget doesn't work. Definitely needs work, it'd be nice if he backed his product.
Loretta Miller
I like it but... I can't get the achievements to show. I have tried both on and off settings. I have used this app before and it provided me a lot of encouragement. Seeing the health benefits and achievements is a big part of that for me. Anyone else have this issue with the app? Once this is fixed (app or by me) I will give app 5 stars.
sMiLEy sLOth
Widget is broken The widget is completely broken on my note 3 and simply displays a "-" where information should be. The app works well and is easy to use but with the widget not working I cant give more than 2 stars.
Arne Ueland
Almost perfect app This app keeps track of almost everything. The only thing is that Achivements does not work when installed on new device. And the widget does not work at all on my phone. Other than that it's a great app.
Jacey Kotyk
Best Vape App For Stats I think this is the best vaping app for keeping track of your "quit smoking" count. Only two things keep me from rating this 5 stars. First, I'd like to be able to enter in the full amount on my vaping costs and not just dollars. And second, the widget looks amazing but is not displaying info on my note 3. Fix those and this would be the best app!!
Jesse Quackenbush
Pretty cool but... I like this app a lot. All the "quit smoking" stats, the juice calculator, wattage calculator. But my only gripe with this is that the wattage calculator doesn't go lower than 1.2 ohms on the resistance, but all the way up to 5.0, And wattage only goes to 12. It makes it completely useless to me and probably most people. Please fix this to meet up with modern mods and it will get 5 stars.
Derek Bain
Very nice I'm really liking this app as it's a constant reminder of how much I used to smoke, and how much money I'm now saving by vaping. The only addition that I would really like to see is a current draw calculation to the Watt Calculator section. This will help users to know how much power their atomizers are using from their batteries.
kevin beach
Great app, BUT.... Everything you would ever need to move from Death Sticks to vaping EXCEPT the achievements don't work. Neither does homescreen widget. 5 stars when they work.
Breanne McCoy
Is it possible to have a greater range in the wattage/voltage section? 1.5 ohms when using a .5 ohm tank make it unusable. Also the achievements aren't unlocking but that appears to be a common complaint. I haven't yet tried the expense section. Looks like a useful app with a required modifications.
Jason Vivirito
Good app This app is great but none of my achievements are unlocking. Also the resistance meter in the watt calculator does not go below 1.5 ohms. I sub ohm, so this makes the watt calculator useless.
Juan Collazo
Expense record doesn't work I've tried multiple times, but the expense record doesn't save my entries. The expense record is the only reason I purchased this app as I need a place to record my purchases so I know which website to go back to when I need the item again. I'll re-download once this is fixed.
Alicia Shamel
Achievements don't work. The achievements don't work, which means the widget doesn't work. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling and no change. I'll give more stars when that works.

About Marc
I have had experience owning several rescue Greyhounds and grew up with lots of different breeds. At present I don't own a dog and love walking. This would be a lovely opportunity to share my time with dogs again!
I'm available 7 days a week. I work in Winchester and can have a generous lunchtime anytime between 10 - 2pm and finish working at 3pm. So after 3 pm I can cover anywhere between the Winchester and North Baddesley area and I will be able to cover Eastleigh as well.
I am comfortable and confident with all breeds of dog large and small (l'm 6'4"!).
I'm more than happy to have a chat so we can discuss what works best for you. Please don't hesitate to get in touch. I look forward to speaking with you.

Past Lives: Incredible Past Life Experiences
List Price: unavailable
Sale Price: Too low to display.
Availability: unspecified
Product Description
Past Lives: Incredible Past Life ExperiencesIntrigued by the existence of past lives and past life regression? Fascinated by reincarnation and how it affects your life today? This is an insightful and sensitive account of what it's like to experience past life regression, the experience itself and the resulting learning that comes from that experience. These reincarnation stories are intimate and personal recollections.It's engaging and exhilarating, you won't want to stop reading."I trained in Past Life Regression Therapy several years ago and have been asked many times to write down some of my own past life stories.I have been shocked, elated, stunned and at times frozen with fearThese are my experiences, never anyone famous, just real experiences of past lives, usually with some pertinent reminder or similarity with events in my current life".With DeSilver's usual style, to the point and easy to read, the reader can certainly identify with her personal and truthful account and her natural sense of humour shines throughout.Her unique manner of combining the therapeutic viewpoint as well as that of the client is addictive. A must read for anyone interested in the existence of past life regression and reincarnation."My experiences of the existence of past lives has never been purely for entertainment purposes. I have loved being able to touch my spirit and that of others. Within all of us, lies the potential to access ancient memories, times long past. I do believe that the body holds onto such memories, even if we don't consciously know how.There is an intelligence in every single cell of your body. The mind is not the brain, it includes the brain but it is not limited to it. The brain is the physical organ, the mind is less tangible. It expands further than we think and communicates in ways I believe we have yet to master or fully understand.There may be things in this life that just don't make sense to you, a recurring thought or dream that seems to bare no relevance to your current life. Sometimes specific aches, pains and physical imbalances may not be confined to an event in this current lifetime you are experiencing. If that is the case for you, you will know it in your heart and in your gut as you read these words. Using the sensations and feeling ability of the body is one of the ways we access these deeply held memories, thoughts and beliefs. It's as if they are frozen in time, crystallised if you like, especially if they are associated with strong emotions and events of the time".

Katharine Whittemore is a freelance writer who frequently reviews books for the Boston Globe, among other publications. She is bright and insightful. Over the weekend she reviewed a number of books on Pope Francis and his young papacy. Once again she captures the flavor of Francis and some of the challenges he faces. I think she does impressive work.
All this allows me to say that in the process of writing about Francis she offers her readers a throw away paragraph that is hurtful and seemingly dismissive of the Leadership Conference of Women Religious, and by extension, the U.S. women religious.
Referring to Pope Francis, she writes: "He's no liberation theologian, though. And he's just endorsed the censure (begun by Pope Benedict XVI) of the leftist group of US nuns known as the Leadership Conference of Women Religious. Then again, he sure can sound like a lefty: 'We are tired of systems that produce poor people so that then the Church can support them.'"
But is LCWR properly described simply as a "leftist group of US nuns"? Is this the impression we are to be left with after decades of its work? Is this what LCWR means to the church and wider US society?
What has caused this simplistic impression?
First, LCWR is "leftist" only if you think the word connotes a gospel-based, caring and intelligent organization. Now some might think is is precisely what "leftist" means. But I suspect this is not the context Whittemore is offering in her used of the word as an adjective.
Maybe Whittemore meant "leftist" as a compliment. If so, I take this back. But as written, her adjective comes across as dismissive, even a tad condescending. It seems Whittemore has fallen into a perception trap set by Vatican prelates who have served LCWR a huge injustice.
LCWR is a networking organization of elected leaders of women U.S. religious congregations. As such, it is the head to the body of the U.S. women religious. Nothing less; nothing more.
NCR readers know the story of the secretive Vatican doctrinal investigation that has painted LCWR as a renegade organization, which it is not. The Vatican "probe" found LCWR guilty of highly exaggerated, misleading, "doctrinal" lapses of fidelity, charges, which are nothing less than slanderous. A charge of "radical feminism" says more about the indictors than it does about the objects of the accusation.
That the Vatican infidelity findings came out of the work of a small group of men who acted as prosecutors and judges behind closed doors without allowing the women a defense to the specifics is an outrage, one deeply hurtful to the mission of the church.
Pope Francis has an opportunity to right this terrible wrong. it might not be too late. But first he needs to sit down with the LCWR leadership and other women religious from the United States to hear their stories of faith and their perceptions of LCWR and the process that led to the Vatican muggings.
He will have an opening later this week when women religious leaders from around the world gather in Rome for a once every three-year meeting.
Meanwhile, don't stop reading the works of Whittemore. She obviously works hard and is a fine reviewer of books. No doubt, she will at some time review some of the fine books being written about the work of women religious today.

This short film, if you don't know, is the short that Trey Parker and Matt Stone made in 1995 for Fox executive Brian Graden. It's making was also parodied in A Very Crappy Christmas. And, yes, it's as sick and twisted as you'd want South Park's pilot short to be. Also like the show, it's genius. It's disgusting, profane, and original like the show. But, without comparing it to the show, it's still worth watching for the titled fight alone. I recommend The Spirit of Christmas: Jesus vs. Santa for not just South Park fans, but anyone who wants a good laugh.

I've been talking to the girl for 2 months, but she left me twice to go back to her ex who she was with for 3 years. She came back 3 weeks ago, she said she was just confused and really wanted to work things out with me.
lately on Twitter for the past four days she has been posting pictures of us together every day. We're not even dating just talking right now. She even already made us her profile pic.
be real for a second this doesn't seem right at all.
3 weeks ago she was posting pics with her ex, 3 weeks later she's blowing up social media with pics of me. Confused
Most Helpful Girl
As much as it be great that she'd be serious this time. It sounds like she's using you as the rebound guy. Meaning she uses you to get back at her ex to make him jealous exc. And to mask her hurt.
The truth is she's been with him for years and known you for months. If she's jumping in into things in only 2 months, she's emotionally confused. Even if she is or was interested in you she's got to much history, and she wouldn't be going back and fourth if she wasn't hoping her and her ex will get back together or work things out.
Point is even if she's willing to start something with you, it's not healthy, why? Because 1. she's more than likely not over and still thinking of her ex, 2. She hasn't taken proper time to get over him so her relations towards you are more than likely rebound, not wanting to be alone after 3 years, and she's rushing so she has not moved on from the old relationship.
If your really going room give her another chance after already leaving twice, than take this advice at least, take it slow, you don't want to rush into things with a girl you've only st at te talking too and vice versa
Goodluck though00|00|0

Mazda Miata With BMW Z3 Front End Conversion Spotted On eBay
There's a whole lot of head-scratchers out there in the world of automotive customizing and this one may rank towards the top. Mazda's Miata is similar to BMW's Z3 in that they're both convertibles.
At quick glance, this 1995 Mazda Miata plays the part well, and it wouldn't surprise us one bit of the common non-automotive enthusiast would think it's an actual BMW, rather than a cheesy replica. But really anyone that has a clue is probably laughing on the inside. The eBay auction is starting at $4,200 and currently has no bids (surprise, surprise).
We're just hoping it's the only Miata out there like this!

Tegan and Sara Call Out Tyler, the Creator for Homophobic Slurs; Tyler Bites Back
In a blog post, the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) backed Quin, stating, "Tyler has said in interviews that he is not homophobic, yet his Twitter feed and rhymes are rampant with anti-gay slurs and references. His defense that 'people take things too seriously' or that he's 'just a kid' is inexcusable. Using hateful language, regardless of the context, is unacceptable and in fact, very serious. Tyler's attempts to be provocative as well as his indifference towards the consequences of his actions are irresponsible."
On the track "Analog," fellow Odd Future rapper Hodgy Beats lays down a line in which he says, "I poke her face, her throat for taste, give me head like I'm on her mind." How lovely. And if you're wondering what Tyler the Creator's song "Bitch Suck Dick" is about, well, you guessed it. It's littered with misogynistic lyrics in which every other word refers to some chick as "bitch," and it's clearly overused and unnecessary. If this kid gets married in the next 10 years, I'll be shocked.

GAMBIER, Ohio - The men's swimming team wasted no time in opening up a commanding lead through only two events after the first night of competition at the Total Performance Invitational at Kenyon College. Penn racked up 191 points to hold a 93-point lead on the hosts, with third place Carnegie Mellon well back with 58 points.
Thursday's lone individual swim came in the 1650 Freestyle. The Quakers put four swimmers in the top five, and seven in the top nine to gain early control over the proceedings. Chris Swanson won in his first collegiate attempt at the 1650, finishing in 15:21.21 and coming in nearly 14 seconds ahead of second place, breaking former Quaker James Fee's pool record in the process. Bradley Wachenfeld (15:35.41), Alex Elias (15:42.26) and Stephen Carroll (15:49.64) finished third, fourth and fifth, respectively.
The night ended with the 800 Freestyle Relay. Penn's 'A' team of Chris Fleming, Konner Scott, Alex Porter and Rhoads Worster missed out on the victory by less than two-tenths of a second to Kenyon despite blistering third and fourth legs from Porter and Worster, who each cut over a second off the Lords' lead. The Quaker 'B' team of Eric Schultz, Dillon McHugh, Swanson and Wachenfeld were close behind in third place, touching the wall in 6:41.35.
Action resumes tomorrow morning from the Kenyon Aquatic Center with preliminary races beginning at 9:30 a.m. Tomorrow's championship and consolation finals will begin at 5:30 p.m.

(2) ...at the right time of year.
My race was in mid-October and I'm so thankful it wasn't any later than that. When the days started getting shorter it was getting harder and harder to fit runs in the daylight.
(3) Look at a training program, but don't live by it. Stay on track, but every body and everyone's schedule is different. You do you.
(4) Invest in an ad-free music streaming service and in making a killer running playlist. It's going to be your soundtrack for the next few months so it's worth it. Don't add all your favorite tunes at once, that way you still get new variety throughout your training.
Need a few suggestions?
(5) Invest in the right pair of shoes...
I went and got fitted for a pair of running shoes at Road Runner when I got serious about training. It made a huge difference. I was wearing shoes for people who pronate and I don't actually pronate (obviously I bought them just because I liked the colors).
(6) ...and know when to replace them.
Most sources say to get a new pair of running shoes every 300 to 500 miles. The best advice I heard though was get a new pair when you feel like you need them. Unfortunately the week of the race I had flash backs of having a bit more skip in my step, but no time to break them in a new pair.
(7) Try to have changes in your routine inspire you rather than derail you.
During my training I was traveling a week per month to New York and had a ton of fun weekend trips planned. It would have been easy to let travel be an excuse to skip my routine, but I actually found enjoyment in having new environments to run in.
(8) Pockets can become your new best friend.
Pockets are always a friend, but as a workout class fanatic I never realized how amazing they are in active wear. For short runs a pocket was just what I needed. For longer runs at the end of my training you better believe I rocked that fanny.
(9) GU is the best worst dessert you'll ever have.
There is nothing like jazzing up mile 8 with the grossest thing you'll ever love eating!
(10) Find a running path that inspires you. Mine -------------->
(11) Let your emotions run you.
I definitely had miles where Eminem blasted through my headphones and I ran through anything that had happened that day at work. I also had miles where I found my inspiration by being thankful to be healthy and for having the freedom to spend my time running.
(12) Be prepared for the elements.
On race day there was a 30% chance it was already raining. I read this article when I saw the forecast which helped me feel prepared (and also gave me a good laugh).
(13) Have a cheerleader and be a cheerleader. It made a big difference to have support at the finish line and I'm looking forward to returning the favor soon.
(13.1) And lastly, in the worlds of Christopher Robin, "You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem"

If there was any hope left that the generals who overthrew Egypt's elected president six months ago might ease the state's crackdown on dissent, a suicide bomb that ripped through a police station may have destroyed it. The most populous Arab country enters the new year with deeper divisions in its society and more bloodshed on its streets than at any point in its modern history. The prospects for democracy appear bleaker with every bomb blast and arrest.

Strengthen Your Personal Branding By Building Your Reputation
If you want to strengthen your personal brand, you need to begin by focusing on your reputation. I have had the honor of mentoring quite a few inspiring marketing professionals, and it doesn't surprise me that they want, to begin with, their logo and building the marketing assets. Personally, I believe that is the wrong approach. I started working on my personal brand by the network I began to establish. Through time, my reputation for being creative, flexible and educating started defining Kevin Iriarte to potential customers.
If you want to start a professional version of yourself, you begin with your reputation. The logo doesn't define you, the marketing won't create you, it's the word of mouth from your customers that cement you. Honestly, I never advertise myself as a marketing consultant. I have business cards but that's only for the exchange of information. I never made flyers, ads, nor did I make a logo for Kevin Iriarte. I began with the conversation and delivering a product that the customer was proud of.
A brand for a company is like a reputation for a person. You earn reputation by trying to do hard things well.
– Jeff Bezos
Don't be afraid to be creative with your marketing
Mike Volpe, " Don't be afraid to get creative and experiment with your marketing."
According to a recent study by Robert Half International, a staffing agency, workers are so focused on following policies that they don't want to take risks (2012, November 19).
Leadership are extremely focused on protecting the organization from making mistakes in their marketing that they extremely inhibit productivity and innovation. Employers need to learn how to truly trust their workers (2012, November 19). Why else did an employee earn the honor of working for a company if their own judgment isn't trusted?
I have worked in marketing in a variety of industries and I have to say the most fearless industry was entertainment. When I was part of the entertainment industry my colleagues were bold and fun with their ideas that it made being creative a normal day-to-day function. We were able to create trends, develop processes, and learn what works with our clientele. We failed more than we succeeded, that I can tell you. However it's in the many failures we shared that our drive for success become more dominant.
Marketing isn't a guaranteed formula. You follow a set of processes that help you structure a marketing campaign but you still have to deviate from the template. The absence of successful predictions leave marketers vulnerable to leadership because they are unable to provide definite results. This uncertainty starts regressing the very character that makes marketing professionals unique.
Marketers have to let go of their feelings as well. I have learned to put my emotions aside when pitching ideas to leadership. You have to. You can only learn to adopt philosophies and provide expert opinions without the fear of rejection. In my 20 years of marketing I have learned 3 things that helped me stay productive and creative in my profession.
- You are a professional.
- Learn that all ideas will never stick. As you expect your leadership to take on your ideas respect their rejections as well. Yes you have to be fearless and unattached to your work. As long as you can back up your suggestions with research, case studies, and internal surveys, you have done your part.
- Not every idea is completely dead.
- I have had hundreds, if not thousands of ideas rejected. However I never delete any of them. I have saved majority of my ideas just so I can bring them back up again when I feel the moment is right. I have taken concepts with me from industry to industry only to have my ideas embraced for an unexpected business.
- Know your audience.
- As marketers we tend to overthink our campaigns in the beginning of the process. Usually we are enthusiastic enough to being pitching our ideas incomplete to leadership only to see them rejected with abusive confidence. This happens because we forget who we are audience is. Yes we have to consider the main demographic, our customer but don't forget your leadership is your in-house customer. You need your leadership to understand the campaign. Keep your idea simple, clear, then have a beginning and an end.
It's frustrating being a marketing professional. Social media, internet, and viral success seems to be on everyone's agenda but what works for one business won't work for another. I find that organizational leaders take benchmarking too far and forget what makes their company, different. The same goes for marketers. Don't forget what makes you diverse. Rejection is part of our business. Not every idea will be embraced with open arms. Don't be afraid to get creative and experiment. Be fearless.
Cutrone, C. (2012, November 19). These Five Statistics Show Just How Much Fear Cripples Employee Performance. Retrieved February 15, 2016, from http://www.businessinsider.com/the-best-way-to-innovate-2012-11
You lead I follow
If you lead I will follow. I can't even fathom to explain how this graphic is a true testament of how I feel. I'm tired of the so-called bosses that feel that they are leaders. It's something I learned when I was helping with raising 12 kids all at once. If you want the kids to listen to you, the only way to get them to follow you is to lead them. SET THE EXAMPLE. Greatness if followed by greatness if you nuture it right. I have had the opportunities to work with some great leaders. I mean amazng leaders. I would follow them anywhere. I learned that I wanted to be the best becuase I was following the best. That's it. You don't have to be stern, forceful, just nuture my hunger for growth by simply being the best example. Lead I will follow, tell me what to do constantly and I shut down. I'm ok with being number 2 or 3 if it's contrasted to 1 billion others.

True, you can't make up the Michael Campbell story, which is why it is so delightful.
But on the women's tour, going into the U.S. Open at Cherry Hills, you don't want to.
That is, unless you're really open-minded.
There are, of course, lots of stories on the LPGA Tour, many of them either under-told or not told at all. Paula Creamer jumps immediately to mind, and so does Lorena Ochoa, and Dorothy Delasin, and Rosie Jones, and on and on.
But given that this is America's year to catch up to Annika Sorenstam, a Michael Campbell story just won't play as well for the casual fan.
Which is probably fine. I mean, why not celebrate the golfer who comes out of nowhere and is so overwhelmed by victory that she can barely describe it?
But given that Sorenstam is the LPGA Tour's prime directive, and given that she is having the year that made Tiger Woods Tiger Woods, the greater sentiment is to see if she can Slam, and codify for all time for people who normally don't pay attention to such things her singular gifts.
I mean, Tiger was Tiger before the Tiger Slam, but the Tiger Slam put him out of reach for even Tiger. And here, on the women's side, is where we find Sorenstam today.
She is such the dominant player that one is drawn to the chase for ultra-Annika in the same way casual fans were drawn to the 72-win Chicago Bulls, or the 125-win New York Yankees, only without the ancillary loathing for Jerry Krause or George Steinbrenner.
You want to care about Michelle Wie, Creamer and the rest of the field playing on the kind of course that punishes all the most precise players, but in the back of your web-encrusted brain, what you really want to see is just how high Sorenstam can fly, just how long she can laugh at the gravity of big-time golf.
And how long the rest of the tour has to wait.
The PGA Tour didn't wait all that long. Woods scared the rest of the tour for awhile, maybe through the middle of 2001, until Phil Mickelson stopped trying to draw gutshot straights on every hole, until Vijay Singh became an even more fanatical preparation junkie, until the rest of the tour realized that there is still room at the top.
And every once in a while, as a result of the tour's trying to catch up to the tiny speck on the horizon, you get Michael Campbell.
The LPGA is not there yet, at least not so anyone can tell. The tour has been divided into Sorenstam events, and non-Sorenstam events. In fact, few people refer to her as Sorenstam any more. Just Annika, as in, "Did you see Annika shot 66 again today?"
There is still room for her to rise, you see. She has her Grand Slam goal in sight, and there is no foil for her yet. She is still determining how much distance there is between her and the field.
Which is why she is the tale du jour at the Open this week in Cherry Hills Village, Colo.
People love the underdog, when you ask them. But when confronted by peerless talent, skill and perfection, those same people want to see just how high is high. They want to see if Sorenstam has the Slam in her, and if not, whether the person who beats her has the staying power to make the LPGA a two-woman show, or a three-woman show.
In other words, if they can't have Sorenstam alone, they want to see who the women's Singh is, or the women's Mickelson. But first, they want to see Sorenstam run her course, or run the course she's on.
Thus, the Open will help provide us a more tempered metal template for Sorenstam. She may be playing against the field, and then against herself, but she is also playing against the nation's expectations for her. She has hyped her game by playing it at such a preposterous level that she stands breathtakingly alone. She is Tiger 2K, and everyone wants to see just how long, and far she can go.
Because one day, there will be a women's Michael Campbell, and it will be a delightful tale especially when placed against the legend of Annika Sorenstam, The Woman Who Owned The Field.

Skip to comments.U.N. Chooses Three Human Rights Violators to Head Up Panel
Posted on 02/09/2005 11:58:32 AM PST by Joe Taranto
The United Nations has chosen a group of nations which will decide the agenda for its next Human Rights Commission meeting. The only problem is that three of those nations are human rights abusers themselves.
The U.N. has chosen Cuba, Zimbabwe and Saudi Arabia to join the Working Group on Situations, which will plan the course for effectively dealing with human rights violations. The panel also includes Hungary and the Netherlands.
The U.S. State Department has denounced the choices of Cuba and Zimbabwe, which Secretary Condoleeza Rice called outposts of tyranny in her confirmation hearings.
The United States believes that countries that routinely and systematically violate the rights of their citizens should not be selected to review the human rights performance of other countries, said Tom Casey of the State Department press office.
The State Department does not place Saudi Arabia in that category, despite violations of religious freedom cited by human rights groups such as the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom. The group says that the nation bans all religions except the governments interpretation of Islam, and has tortured and detained those who have publicly practiced a non-Muslim religion.
In September, Saudi Arabia joined China, Iran, North Korea, and others on the State Department list of countries of particular concern for human rights violations. However, the department maintains that there is a reform movement underway in the Saudi Arabia, which includes local elections, scheduled for this week.
For now, the State Department says, it can only urge the group to conduct its procedures in a balanced and transparent manner. The main function of the group is to determine the admissibility of human rights complaints, before they are heard by a 53-member commission.
Maybe next time, the U.N. could tap Osama Bin Laden to head up a committee on fighting terrorism.
I guess they're operating under the "it takes one to know one" ideal.
Perhaps it's a form of sensitivity training for them.
Some things just never change, do they? And the politicians want us to trust this body?
Good grief. You'd think these jerks would know better by now. Cheez.
This will get filed under the "somehow I am not surprised" file. :)
What's next? Slickster heading a Sexual Harassment Prevention seminar?
Yep. I don't know how the U.N. can possibly expect to do this, when a majority of the human rights complaints will likely be COMING FROM Saudi Arabia, Cuba, and Zimbabwe. Why not just add Sudan, China, North Korea and Iran, so that we could further avoid dealing with this issue. Thank GOD the U.N. did not join us in the war!
Good one
The U.N. has chosen Cuba, Zimbabwe and Saudi Arabia to join the Working Group on Situations,
Weve finally translated their recommendations on treating political dissidents! Run! Its a cook book!
Good, because we wouldnt want to offend them in the least. Supose we left them out of this? They have feelings too. (That also means the UN would have done something right.)
Oh, good. Now let's just put Thailand in charge of sexual slavery, Indonesia in charge of religious tolerance, Mexico in charge of immigration reform, and Ethiopia in charge of agriculture. Then they should host a big party and put England in charge of catering.
Get US out of the UN and UN out of the US!!
I thought the Sudan, China, and N. Korea were already on the human rights committe......
Go to: http://www.getusout.org/un/index.html . Then go lobby at http://www.conservativeusa.org/megalink.htm .
The United Nations is a corrupt disgrace and it is time for the USA to WITHDRAW from and defund the United Nations. Please tell your senators, congressmen and everyone you know to support Representative Ron Pauls bill H.R. 1146 which would WITHDRAW the USA from the United Nations, prohibit US funds going to the UN and prohibit US troops serving under UN command. H.R 1146 is the American Sovereignty Restoration Act.

Conjoined twins with two faces and separate brains born in Australia
A couple in Australia have welcomed the birth of conjoined twins, who have separate brains and identical faces, but share a body.
Sydney couple Renee Young and Simon Howie found out their new arrival would be born with a rare condition called diprosopus at the beginning of the month.
Despite advice from doctors they decided to go ahead with the pregnancy, and on Thursday their conjoined twins were born.
Named Hope and Faith by their parents, the girls share an enlarged skull with identical faces and separate brains, with one set of limbs and organs.
The pair were born six weeks premature by caesarean-section but have impressed doctors with their "fighting spirit" at Westmead Children's Hospital.
Speaking on Australian TV programme 'A Current Affair', Renee Young said: "If I only get two days with the baby I only get two days. I'll at least have some time with her."
"Even though there is only one body, we call them our twins," Howie told Woman's Day magazine. "They are breathing perfectly on their own and feeding."
"They are little Aussie fighters."
The newborns remain in intensive care in stabled condition and doctors have told the couple they are unsure as to what will happen in the near future: "We are still in unknown territory," Young said.

Generally, your DUI lawyer will handle the court process, but may be able to help you understand the California DMV process, too.
DUI Arrest & CA License Suspension
If you fail or refuse to take a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) test, you will be arrested. The California DMV will suspend your driver's license soon after your arrest for:
- 4 months, if you're at least 21 years old.
- 1 year, if you're younger than 21 years old.
NOTE: CA DMV penalties are separate from any penalties given to you by the court system and DO NOT require a conviction in criminal court.
You can request a California DMV hearing within 10 days of receiving your driver's license suspension notice.
Criminal Court Penalties
NOTE: Court penalties may not be handed down until many months after your arrest.
If you're convicted of a DUI, the court can suspend your driver's license again as part of your criminal penalty, which could also include:
- Attending a DUI program.
- Paying a fine.
- Serving time in jail.
- Completing community service.
A DUI attorney may be able to help you:
- Satisfy these requirements.
- Pay your fines.
- Avoid some penalties altogether.
Long-Term DUI Penalties in CA
After a DUI conviction, the California DMV will be notified and you will receive 2 points on your CA driver's license. They will stay on your driving record for 10 years.
Your driver's license can be suspended if you receive too many points in a specific time period. See our DMV Point System page for more information.
A conviction can also raise your car insurance rates:
- A suspended driver's license and/or DUI conviction makes you a bigger risk to insure and raises your premium.
- You may be required to file an SR-22, which most insurance companies charge for.
While these consequences are unavoidable, having a DUI lawyer handle the legal aspects of your conviction may help ease some of your stress.
