I met this girl got her number then she told me she wasn't interested by text then a week later she wanted to hang out and we had a lot of fun and today I saw her out (we have the same circle of friends) and she just acted like she didn't know me being cold and laughing with everyone and acted like I didn't exist...
im so confused what is going on?
Most Helpful Girl
to me she's really not interested into anything more than friendship/fun and she doesn't stay with you in a large crowd so that you don't get the wrong idea or other guy she may be interested in either, like to show she's not taken lol00|00|0
She is hot and cold.
- Show AllShow Less
I don't have the details, I spoke based on myself
and I've met some "hardcore church" people when my mother became christian, not all of them are what they seem to be..
hope she's a good woman and stops giving you mixed signs then 😊
I really her I'm really down about it
Most Helpful Guy
She told you she was not interested but then a week later she decided she had no better offers, so decided you would do. Now she has decided she does not need your company.
That is a slight variation of the same pattern and you are surprised?
Men, guys, you need to start having a little self respect and boundaries. If a woman tells you she is not interested but then decides a week later that she has nothing better to do and wants to have your company, tell her to find someone else to use.
At the very least, if you do decide to give her a chance, make her work for it and make her qualify why you should be spending your precious time with her.
How is anyone going to respect you if you allow others to use you?
That's how I see it anyway.

Electronic Health Records Software – Ushering In The Future Of Medical Science
Digitisation of every field has resulted in speedy technological advancements, the likes of which have never been seen before. As we all are aware of how efficient the digital record keeping can be, it is probably the only way forward. Electronic health records are playing a very crucial role in the medical field today.
Because of the dawn of this digital age, today doctors have a very simplified task of observation. Earlier whenever a patient used to be rushed into a hospital, it took several minutes before any procedures could be started as the doctors needed the detailed case histories and past procedures records which were carried around in physical files. Now, with the help of digital record keeping, the doctors get immediate access to all the medical records in split second timelines
Even every common man is now carrying a plethora of personal medical information in firm of various apps in their smartphone. Everyone has at least one or two physical activity tracking apps installed on their phone. With the gradual integration of medical record keeping apps on mobile every person will be carrying a personal complete medical record without any trouble as everyone has their mobile at hand 24/7.
Modern EHR systems are becoming more and more advanced with every passing day. These medical records can now be stored in cloud repositories over different networks and can be easily retrieved whenever needed. Loss of medical files and information is soon going to become a thing of the past as all the data is going to be secured online. Even governments have started to make efforts to push such schemes so as to promote digital medical record keeping and widespread use of EHR systems. Huge projects are being funded by the governments to provide these medical benefits to the poor and the suffering population.
Firstly specialised products were being developed for such programs but then it was found out that out is much easier to develop software which can be made to run on devices that are already in use by medical personnel and healthcare institutions. Hence, electronic health record softwares were specifically developed to function properly on the common products such as the tablets and smartphones as well as computers along with the more professional equipment used by the doctors or the medical institutions.
Now research institutions as well as universities from all over the world have access to unlimited data records to study and research. They are no longer limited to the case study files stored in the libraries of the university or the institution. Imagine being able to study cases of several thousand patients before arriving at any conclusions. The advancements in the field of medicine has already got a very big speed boost because of the fast track information systems that are becoming the standard norm. The world is definitely going to see a better tomorrow as there would be no space for any disease.

Old town in Kostajnica. Conservation and restoration works – from the onset to the final presentation

The Old Town in Kostajnica is located on a river island, and is the only such island in Croatia. Its development can be traced back to the 13th century, when the princes of Kostajnica had their seat there. With the disappearance of their kin in the early 14th century, the old town begun frequently changing owners, and with the fall of Bosnia in 1463 it became the major stronghold on the border with the Ottomans. Trough treason, Kostajnica fall into Turkish hands in 1556 and remained under Turkish rule for the following 132 years. The Old Town has a tripartite floor plan. Originally, the town was directly accessible through the bridge over the river or through the square tower ground floor. The ground floor was vaulted by a barrel ceiling, so on the side towards the river one could enter through a separate vehicular and pedestrian gate with a drawbridge, while the opposite inner part of the courtyard could be entered through a semicircular vehicular aisle cantilevered by a stone frame. The sentry post is located on the western side. Once the citizens liberated themselves from Turks, the old defensive wall got enhanced on both the inner and outer sides, and thus transformed into a powerful bulwark, a pentagonal tower got built in the western part of the town, and the southeast corner of the town got a strong battery tower. The abolition of the military frontier in 1871 and the annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1878 resulted in the Old Town's loss of its strategic importance. Once the military left, its modest and dilapidated areas got inhabited by the city's poor. In 1908 the City Hall launched the restoration initiative and executed the first works in order to enable effective maintenance of the Old Town. These efforts were interrupted by World War II, and the works from the 30-ies were unsatisfactorily performed and very limited. Systematic conservation–restoration works begun no sooner than the year 1966. The first conceptual design, drafted by the local government of Kostajnica, was unrealistic. Recognizing the impossibility of realizing the desire of city authorities, repair work started being systematically planned and executed, only to be interrupted by the Croatian War of Independence in 1991. Kostajnica suffered heavy damage in the war, and the works were resumed in 2003, after the re-integration of the island in Una into the Croatian territory. Works continued according to the somewhat altered preliminary design from 1982. Repair work was conducted constructively and on all the structures of the Old Town and the interior of the square and pentagonal towers was turned into an exhibiting space for the permanent collection related to the history of the Old Town.

|The Allergy Center
Some Topics
Immune Mediated Diseases
The original concept of allergy included all immune-mediated disease and the term allergy was interchangeable with the term "hypersensitivity."
One textbook of clinical immunology defined allergy: "The original definition of allergy in 1906 was --- a specifically changed reactivity of the host to an agent on the second or subsequent occasions. This covers a whole spectrum of immune responses, both protective and harmful. However, more recently, the term allergy had been restricted to type 1 hypersensitivity. This rigid definition is too narrow to cover the range of conditions seen by allergists in clinical practice. It is likely that all four types of hypersensitivity are involved in various allergic diseases and indistinguishable reactions can sometimes be produced without immunological involvement."
Delayed patterns of allergy are not obvious and generally go unrecognized. Allergy skin tests do not show this problem. Symptom onset is delayed hours to days after exposure to the trigger foods. Allergic reactions to drugs such as penicillin and to foods are usually delayed hypersensitivity.
Many chronic diseases are either degenerative and/or inflammatory and many are recognized to be immune-mediated or hypersensitivity diseases. The delayed patterns of allergy can be the cause of chronic and disabling hypersensitivity disease. The stakes are high both for individual patients and for the society as a whole. None of the common hypersensitivity diseases have been solved and most appear to rage on, afflicting increasing numbers of patients with disabling diseases. Asthma, allergy, rheumatic diseases, autoimmune diseases, multiple sclerosis, diabetes, thyroiditis, psoriasis are examples of hypersensitivity diseases which involve humoral and cell-mediated immunity. We use celiac disease - wheat allergy- as a prototype which demonstrates the prolific ability of food allergy to produce a wide range of diseases.
Prominent allergist-immunologists such as Brennerman, Gerrard, Knicker, Hill, Brostoff and numerous others for many years made conspicuous efforts to elucidate the delayed forms of food allergy which involve the most profound immune mechanisms. Unfortunately, all the good science that has been done is now mostly ignored. Allergists for the most part act as if delayed patterns of food allergy do not exist and physicians in other specialties have no idea about food-related immune mediated disease. The only hope for patients is to resolve these problems is to take charge of their own management.
Four mechanisms of immune activity
When trying to understand the wide spectrum of hypersensitivity disorder, it is help to return to the Gell Coombs concept of 4 immune mechanisms:
Type 1 or immediate hypersensitivity is IgE-mediated or common allergy.
Type 2 or cytotoxic reactions mediated by antibody, complement, and/or cellular mechanisms. The target in type II reactions is a cell membrane and cellular damage or death is the result.
Type 3 mechanisms involve antibodies forming immune complexes with antigen. Circulating complexes activate complement, attach to red blood cells that are removed by phagocytosis in the spleen, or leave the circulation and trigger inflammation in tissue spaces (Arthus reaction), or are phagocytosed by macrophages in tissue spaces which present antigen, release cytokines and activate T-cells.
Type 4 are cell-mediated reactions take 12 or more hours to develop and are based on antigen, T-cell interaction. Inflammation is the basic tissue pattern.
Allergy can be thought of as hypersensitivity disorders with external causes. Substances that trigger allergic responses are antigens. These are often proteins that can be found in air, food and water. Airborne antigens such as plant pollens or house dust are well known. Other airborne antigens and food antigens are less obvious. Airborne fungi trigger delayed hypersensitivity diseases in the lung. New and foreign substances introduced to the body such as drugs and herbs usually cause delayed allergic reactions.
When considering the origin of hypersensitivity diseases, food materials should be given priority consideration since that are the biggest chunk of the environment to get inside human bodies. If the term "food allergy" refers to all interactions between molecules derived from the food supply and the immune system, then many hypersensitivity disorders fall into the category of food allergy.
Prototype of Type III -IV Illness Systemic Lupus Erythematosis (SLE) is an immune-mediated disease which serves as a model of hypersensitivity disease. The peak incidence of SLE is in women between the ages of 20 and 40 and who present with a typical malar rash, lymphadenopathy, arthralgias, fever, fatigue and will often complain of recurrent flu-like illness. As the disease advances, increased evidence of target organ damage can be found with protein and red cells in the urine, pleurisy, pericarditis, hair loss, and circulating auto-antibodies, especially antinuclear.

Jurassic 5
Jurassic 5 Vinyl 2LP
↳ 1998 debut album from Cali MC's, Cut Chemist + Nu-Mark on the beats
Deluxe reissue of the original J5 album on double vinyl! This is the album that put Jurassic 5 on the map. Originally released in '98, their debut came at the height of the late 90's indie rap boom, but stood out with a fresh blend of old and new school styles. The combination of Cut Chemist and DJ Nu-Mark on beats with Chali 2na, Zaakir, Akil, and Mark 7 harmonizing raps on the mic was unstoppable. I remember hearing "Jayou" on college radio and losing my shit. That flute loop is still bananas! Chemist and Nu-Mark really put their best foot forward here on every beat, plus scratch interludes like "Lesson 6" showcased their skills on the ones and twos. Check "Improvise," "Action Satisfaction," and "Without A Doubt" for more freshness. If you're going to own one Jurassic 5 record, this is it.

There are a lot of agents that don't take Housing Benefit or DSS due to the way they are paid. The best thing to do is speak to the local council as they will have a list of agents that take Housing Benefit and even private landlords.

Well, that didn't take very long. It was just yesterday that we reported on the rumors of a YouTube subscription service that would remove all the ads from the popular video streaming site and here we are today with the official announcement of said service. It's called YouTube Red and there's more to it than eliminating ads.
Next, you'll be able to save videos to watch offline. There are unofficial YouTube ripping sites out there, but this is the officially sanctioned and totally legal solution. YouTube Red will also let you watch some exclusive web series starting some time next year, as well as full length movies. The first movie is something called Unicorn Time and one of the first exclusive series will be a scripted show by the Fine Brothers, the guys behind the "React" videos.
But it's not just about video either, not exactly. YouTube Red will also let you listen to YouTube videos in the background on your phone, attempting to counter the streaming music services like Pandora, Rdio, and Spotify. That'll work with the new YouTube Music app, which also grants access to Google Play Music.
How all this pans out for the actual content creators on YouTube, like your friendly neighborhood gadget reviewers on MEGATechNews, remains to be seen. If the ads that directly support these channels get nullified through the subscription service, do the content creators get a piece of the $10/month pie based on views?
And no, you're not the only one who might confuse YouTube Red for some other website with the words "Red" and "Tube" in its name. This is not that kind of website. At least, we don't think it is.

I see what you're suggesting, makes a lot of sense... it would be much more efficient than creating a new Session every time. Are there any future plans to include any implementation in Jackrabbit?

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
owner ? How much time does the defendent get after the bank has been served In order to stop the garnishment? Where do you go to request a hearing? The bank's legal division advised me to go to the sheriff's station. What can the sheriff's station do ?
Each county is different, but in most counties either the Sheriff's Court Services Division or a Marshal's Division actually execute the levy by going to the bank, etc. They then inventory and take possession of the contents of the safe deposit box. That is why the bank recommended that you talk to the Sheriff's Department. In most counties, the Sheriff holds the goods for a set time, like 30 days, before disbursing the goods or conducting a sale. During that time, you may pay the judgment amount to the Sheriff (not to the creditor) and the contents will eventually be returned to you.
As far as requesting a hearing, you file with the court where the judgment was issued and request an exemption hearing if applicable. If it is a small claims judgment, you may also file a request to pay the judgment in installments. In the latter instance, you will be required to provide your financial informatio to the court and it becomes public reord, so be careful.

I think producing the patch files is practical and worthy; sending the files could use the mimemail task posted onto this list a while back. However, I am dubious about fully automating the submission process as there is the need to follow the submission guidelines, especially the bits about meaningful subjects and message bodies. If we automate the process completely, then everyone who has edited some code will keep on submitting it till they get a response, and without meaningful subjects it will be hard to make sense of the submissions. I would prefer, therfore, some task which did a cvs diff and down the tree and stuck the diffs into a submissions directory, to a full 'workflowesque' submission process.

Miller Electric manufactures a variety of electric arc welding machines for use in industrial, commercial and hobby applications. The Millermatic 185 is a self-contained metal inert gas (MIG) welding machine that uses a consumable wire as an electrode to conduct electricity into the welding piece. The electric arc melts the wire electrode as well as the project metal to fuse them into a single joint. Like all MIG welding machines, the Millermatic185 uses inert gas to shield the weld from airborne contaminants that may weaken the joint.
The manufacturer's user manual rates the welding output level for the Millermatic 185 at a maximum of 150 amperes at a setting of 23 volts of direct current (DC). As the speed the MIG wire is melted is correlated to the amperage setting, Miller indicates that setting the Millermatic 185 to 150 amperes will allow up to 650 inches per minute of linear welding. The Millermatic185 is rated at 30 amperes for its lowest level of output.
Weight and Dimensions
The Millermatic 185 weighs 165 pounds without MIG wire or a tank of inert gas installed onto the machine. It also measures 37 inches long, 27 inches high and 18 inches in width.
MIG Wire Capabilities
The Millermatic 185 is capable of welding with steel, stainless steel and aluminum MIG wire a maximum of 0.035 inches and as small as 0.023 inches in diameter. The machine is also capable of welding flux core MIG wire in diameters as large as .045 inches.
Duty Cycle
The duty cycle of a MIG welder is a 10-minute period that is divided as six minutes of continuous welding and four minutes of allowing the machine to rest. This cycle prevents the machine from overheating. A duty cycle of a welding machine is described as the percentage that the welder can meet this six to four ratio at varying amperage settings. Miller rates the Millermatic's 100 percent duty cycle at 115 amperes; the 80 percent duty cycle at 130 amperes; the 60 percent duty cycle at 150 amperes; and 35 percent duty cycle at 200 amperes. Therefore, the higher the amperage setting, the more frequent the machine will have to rest to avoid overheating.

Virtually all employees must be covered by workers' compensation insurance. The only exceptions are the following types of workers:
Any employer contracting with an independent contractor for the performance of work costing more than $1,000 must obtain a certificate of workers' compensation from the contractor, or be liable for all the workers' compensation expenses involved in a work injury. Employee leasing services and temporary agencies are required to carry workers' compensation coverage for their employees. A principal contractor is liable for the same obligations unless the contractor receives a compensation certificate from his or her subcontractor.
"No-fault" system. Workers' compensation is a no-fault system. Unlike traditional legal mechanisms for compensating accident victims--which limit recovery to cases in which the victim's injuries result from some other person's negligence--workers' compensation laws allow employees to collect without regard to fault simply by showing that the injury arose "out of and in the course of employment." Compensation is guaranteed in such cases. It doesn't matter that the employee (or a co-worker) was partly at fault, nor does it matter that the employee knew the job was risky. "Contributory negligence," "assumption of risk," and other defenses normally used by defendants in accident cases do not apply to on-the-job injuries. In return for this guarantee of compensation, employees give up the right to sue the employer for damages, thus effectively limiting the employer's liability for workplace injuries.

Last year, I may have said "Man, that's crazy, that's like putting Saudi Arabia on the UN Human Rights Council!" as an euphemism for something completely insane or hypocritical.
With Saudi Arabia being put on the council five days ago, does that mean my definition of crazy must now change? Or is the World itself crazy? No, this is no joke. Saudi Arabia is now an elected member of the United Nations Human Rights Council. And the world has gone crazy.
But let's try again- "Man! That's crazy! That's like putting China on the UN Human Rights Council!"
Same story. You could also replace "China" with Cuba, Vietnam or Russia and it would seem just as mad, but all of these countries have recently become members of the 47 member "springboard of action for those who suffer human rights abuses". It would be funny if it weren't so sad.
To quote Wikipedia, the purpose of the UNHRC is to address "important thematic human rights issues such as freedom of association and assembly, freedom of expression, freedom of belief and religion, Women's rights, LGBT rights, and the rights of racial and ethnic minorities." Sweden and Norway and other Scandinavian liberal paradises spring to mind when you hear of those values. That said, I don't associate Saudi Arabia with freedom of religion or women's rights. It doesn't sound right, does it? In the same vein, I do not associate China with freedom of expression, or Russia with LGBT rights. And yet, for the next three years, these countries will help shape the world's human rights directives.
Yet this is not the irony here. The irony is that these countries have not been condemned by this council. Even if China holds the current record for internet censorship and the number of times that it has said "no" to the Council's own monitors. Even if Saudi Arabia engages in public beheadings for attempted sorcery, as well as crucifixion, and stonings; amputations of ears, noses, feet or hands for crimes such as "sexual deviancy" or "drunkenness". These countries have never been condemned for these things by this council. Russia has not been condemned for it's censorship. So perhaps it shouldn't shock the world that these countries that are the very definition of "authoritarian" are on the "most important human rights panel in the world".
What would shock the world, perhaps, is Israel ever being chosen for membership of the UNHRC. It is number one in the Middle East for every category of freedom (not that this says much) and tolerates annual gay pride parades in Tel Aviv. It has full freedom of religion for it's Christian, Muslim and Druze minorities. It has freedom of press, internet, expression, protest. It has democracy – minority Arabs sit as members of the Knesset. Yet the State of Israel has more condemnations than Russia, China, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, Zimbabwe, even North Korea combined- because these countries have never been condemned by this "Human Rights Council". Israel has- over 30 times.
On the 10th of November, it was the 38th Anniversary of the passing of UN General Assembly Resolution "Zionism is Racism". I remember this day not because of the significance of the resolution passed, but because of the speech given by Israeli President Chaim Herzog to the representitives assembled in front of him. The last paragraphs are a relevant closing quote for this article:
"I stand here not as a supplicant. Vote as your moral conscience dictates to you. For the issue is neither Israel nor Zionism. The issue is the continued existence of this organization, which has been dragged to its lowest point of discredit by a coalition of despots and racists…
We put our trust in our Providence, in our faith and beliefs, in our time-hallowed tradition, in our striving for social advance and human values, and in our people wherever they may be. For us, the Jewish people, this resolution based on hatred, falsehood and arrogance, is devoid of any moral or legal value."
This ascension of dictatorships, authoritarian nations, the very worst of human rights abusers into a farcically named "Human Rights Council" is indeed devoid of any moral or legal value, and should be perceived as such by all of us.

text: Hello, The Factory model maintains no physical characteristics, but instead allows the user to dynamically create models at runtime. A model is instantiated by passing an XML character string to a Factory model. The character string uses the same model format as the .world files. Note that the string should only contain the model description, and no other tags. The XML string is passed into Gazebo through the gz_factory interface. So, you need a factory in your world file: <model:Factory> <id>factory0</id> </model:Factory> And then you need to access gz_factory through the libgazebo interface. When you want a new model to appear in the world, just set the "string" in gz_factory to contain the description of the model. -nate On 1/19/07, laflaf3d <laflaf3d@...> wrote: > > Hi, > I want to write Gazebo client (with libgazebo) that can randomely > instanciate a robot by using factory. > But, after search a lot on web, I don't find an example at all! > > Have someone show me an example to use gz_factory to dynamically create > models? > > Thanks > -- > View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/How-to-use-gz_factory-tf3040637.html#a8451647 > Sent from the playerstage-gazebo mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Take Surveys.

The vital criterion for being successful with women is rock-solid confidence. And the only way to get that is to be successful with women. Women have a deep, primal attraction to confidence, because it tells them that you'd go out and kill a mammoth if you had to; though some are attracted to anguished emotional cripples who can't commit, because they mistake selfishness for confidence.
Women also like to have their own confidence boosted. You can do this by complimenting hair, weight, dress, eyes, shoes and clothing in any combination. For example: "Those new shoes go well with your excellent haircut." Don't compliment her on the fact that she's running a global business, as she won't be insecure about that.
Romance is important for women. Whisking her off to Paris is all very well, but it's only going through the motions. Romance is best when it's highly personal, intensely thoughtful, beautifully executed and a complete surprise. Ideally, a romantic gesture will include many, if not all, of the following: tissue paper, jewellery, keys, tickets, chocolate, baths, letters, thick white towelling dressing gowns.
Most women demand a good sense of humour in their man. Fortunately, most men know that a sense of humour is vital for dealing with women. Be warned that women don't think belching the national anthem is funny. What they want is a man who doesn't take himself too seriously. In general, women don't take men seriously, so they won't make an exception for you. If you've got rock-solid confidence and a great sense of humour, you don't need great looks. Of course, women would prefer it if you had all three, but then you'd probably be gay and they'd be back at square one.
What women do object to is embarrassing clothes. To a woman, you are basically a glorified accessory and it's therefore very important that you don't clash or jar in any way.
Kissing is important to women, and shouldn't feel like you're rodding the drains or eating a watermelon. You should also concentrate on kissing, as it gives you extra foreplay points and will go some way to meeting that impossible foreplay target women set.
Being good at sex isn't going to help you with seducing women, because they're unlikely to take someone else's word for it and, by the time they find out you're rubbish, it's too late and the wedding guests have long gone.

Page 2 columnist
Editor's note: This article originally ran on September 26, 2002.
Just so you know, the final question of today's mailbag doubles as the most important mailbag question in Sports Guy history (even bigger than "Who would have won a seven-game series between Hickory High and Carver High?"). So let's delve right into it. ...
Q: At our fantasy football draft this year, one of my buddies (also the
commissioner) brought his new wife so she could hang out. She didn't draft a
team, but she felt the need to shout out lame comments after players were
chosen, and she told her husband what delivery food would not be acceptable
for him to eat (he was barred from having even a slice of pizza). Needless to
say, our draft was missing the usual witty one-liners and guy talk. So does
our commissioner have to step down for committing such a transgression upon
his friends? Can our draft be considered binding, or do we need to redraft
without our psychologically castrated friend? Has anyone else ever had this happen to the draft? To redeem himself, what would he need to do?
-- Paul P., Manchester, N.H.
Sports Guy: First of all, this might be the most disturbing Sports Guy e-mail ever... even worse than the guy in Vegas who pushed for his buddies to visit the Hoover Dam. I can't imagine why somebody would bring their wife or girlfriend to a fantasy draft, unless there were mitigating circumstances ... like, "I can't leave her alone because she has seizures," or "We're visiting from another state, we don't have a car and there is nowhere else for her to go unless we drop her off at a mall and leave her for dead."
Anyway, here's my ruling:
A. Your buddy has to relinquish the commissioner's chair. Immediately.
B. He can't trade with anyone else all season.
C. He should throw an extra $50 into the prize money pool for ruining everyone's else's draft.
D. He can't hang out with anyone else in the draft until March Madness. Sentence him to six months of chick flicks, apple picking, "Mad About You" reruns, and contemplating his actions and the consequences of those actions.
E. He has to wear a Doug Christie jersey to the next draft. No ifs, ands or buts. And he has to purchase the jersey with his own money.
And if he doesn't accept those terms, he's out of the league. Case closed.
Q: What girl, who's considered hot by the media, just isn't? My pick is
Brittany Murphy. She wasn't good looking in "Clueless" and has gotten worse from there ("Don't Say a Word").
-- Ed Sweeney
SG: As Ed McMahon would say, "Yes ... you are correct, sir." I couldn't agree more. Call me crazy, but when somebody looks like they haven't showered in three weeks, that's not exactly one of my "Boy is she hot!" prerequisites. My runner-up for this category is Tina Fey of "SNL," a brilliant writer and funny performer ... but how the hell did she break into Maxim's 100? I was flabbergasted by that one. She isn't a three-bagger or anything, but the Maxim 100? Has a tousled hairdo and quirky glasses ever carried anyone further?

Sugar, a soluble carbohydrate, is the most common natural sweetener. It is high in calories and is therefore also known as a nutritive sweetener.

The high-calorie content in these sweeteners makes them unappealing to the increasingly health-conscious populace, fueling the demand for low-calorie sweeteners.

The Morgan EV3 will be on display at the Geneva auto show in March. The electric three wheeler is based on the original Morgan but updated with a rear mounted electric motor from Potenza that produces 75 horsepower and 96 lb-ft of torque. Its has a top speed of 100 mph and goes 0-60 in 8.5 seconds. Range is 150 miles.
Jonathan Welles, Morgan's design director, tells AutoCar, "You adapt to the noise of the wind and the sensation in place of the engine, and it's exhilarating and impressive in different ways, not least because of the acceleration. The weight distribution is similar so it's very familiar to handle, and you can disturb the rear wheel in a corner."
Morgan already has 10 customers for the car and will use feedback from them to modify the prototype before regular production begins this summer. The company expects to build one EV3 a week.
Morgan expects the EV3 to attract younger buyers to its cars. Prices for the car have not been announced.

Sunday of last week marked the fifteenth anniversary of the September 11th attacks, the worst terror attack on American soil. During a memorial held at the site of the attacks, Hillary Clinton left early, fainting on her way out. She later revealed to the public that she had been diagnosed with pneumonia the prior Friday. She did attempt to politicize the tragedy, reminding us all that refugees didn't cause 9/11, though I don't think anyone ever argued that they did.
Meanwhile, Barack Obama had been busy trying to block a bill that would benefit families of the 9/11 victims. A bill that would allow the families of the victims of the 9/11 attacks to sue Saudi Arabia had passed the House and Senate unanimously. Saudi Arabia threatened to divest heavily from American assets if the bill is passed, which seems like something of an admission of guilt to me.
Who could be against such a bill? Barack Obama, of course. As Downtrend reported:
Democrats are starting to show cracks in their support for legislation that would allow families of 9/11 victims to sue Saudi Arabia — suggesting White House opposition to the bill may be resonating with lawmakers preparing for the first veto override vote of Barack Obama's presidency.
But to sustain his expected veto, Obama will need to persuade 34 senators to change course and oppose the bill — a very difficult task. The legislation sailed through both chambers with no opposition. And the White House now has scant time to make its case to Capitol Hill, with a veto override vote in the Senate expected this month.
Still, there are glimmers of hope for the administration. Key lawmakers are now making it clear they remain undecided on overriding Obama's presumed veto — a notable departure from the overwhelming show of support behind the legislation when it unanimously passed both chambers earlier this year.
California Sen. Dianne Feinstein, the top Democrat on the Intelligence Committee, indicated this week that she was rethinking her support for the Saudi Arabia legislation amid renewed arguments against the measure from the Obama administration.
"I do have some second thoughts with respect to that," Feinstein said. "I think it could bring on a whole host of unintended consequences."
Should the corrupt Congress be able to uphold Obama's veto it will be one more piece of pre-election evidence as to whose side that our stalwart "representatives' in Washington are truly on and will only serve to provide more fuel to the fire for the anti-establishment forces looking to pull off an unprecedented peaceful revolution at the ballot box.
What do you all think? Of all the disagreements I've had with the President, I think this may be my greatest. How can anyone argue with the families of those who lost loved ones in 9/11?

Because of the recent news of Brett Favre retiring
To be fair, it was a little tough, especially since I haven't watched cable television in about six years. I went to Barnes and Noble, bought four books, rented a movie, and just hung out. Anyway, not to get all Monday Morning Quarterback on you, but I thought as a sports freak like myself, avoiding all the sports channel I have on my television was a little tough, but it did help that the prime time game on ESPN was Arkansas against Ole Miss.

RIM said Balsillie was responsible for authorizing stock option grants, which turned out to be backdated in 63% of cases between 2002 and 2006, the company said. "In many instances, including in connection with some option grants to the co-CEOs, COOs and the CFO (the 'C-level officers')," RIM said, "hindsight was used to select grant dates with favorable pricing on grants, resulting in grantees receiving an in-the-money benefit that was not recorded in the financial statements as stock-based compensation." RIM said its finance chief, Dennis Kavelman, will become operating chief, and that Balsillie and co-CEO Mike Lazaradis have agreed to give the company 10 million Canadian dollars to defray costs tied to the probe. RIM had previously predicted that the option probe would result in a charge of $25 million to $45 million. The company said it continues to work on its restatement. RIM had previously said it aimed to file restatement paperwork by the end of its March 3 fiscal year.
