Hi, I would like to obtain this feature: Spiceworks let me to flag a software as "unwanted", but in this way I can't define a list of unwanted software because they are infinite. I would have to check every day my list and flag any unwanted installed software. Instead of this, I would like to flag only the softwares allowed in my company (a few number) and then make a report that shows any other software not included in that list.
Is it possibile to obtain that?
Thank you

Under Help Desk -> Reports you can create a report that will list "Installed Applications" that "do not contain" certain key words, such as Microsoft Office, etc. That should report PCs that have any unwanted or unknown software.

This could be a useful feature, let us know when you have added it, I will spice it up as well.

Have a look at this: http:/
Maybe that reports fits your needs.
If yes, you`re able to script the reports, so they will "autorun":

Hi, I tried these reports but they show "unwanted" software because this is the only tag that I can flag in software details. There should be a flag named "allowed software". The workaround could be to use the flag reversed, flagging the "wanted software" insted of "unwanted" and changing the report to show software where this field is "true" instead of "false". But this is only a workaround.

Classic Western Pauldrons
Medieval combat segment spaulders armor
These pauldrons are made of quality 1.5 mm (16 ga) cold-rolled (mild) steel. Absolutely functional combat armor which can be used with almost any type of body armor. Two pauldrons - left and right are the subject of this listing.
Pauldrons features:
- 1.5 mm (16 ga) mild steel;
- One size fits most;
- Upgrade to stainless steel is available for $50 extra.
Please contact us if you have any additional questions.
Do you do any blueing (since it's mild steel), and if so, how much extra would that cost?
Unfortunately we do not produce any blue-finished, blackened or darkened armor for technical reasons, sorry. Thank you for your understanding.
I have ordered these along with a gambeson, I will need them custom sized as I have a slight frame, I've sent an additional email explaining this. My understanding is you will be able to calculate the measurements of me in the gambeson so as to fit the pauldrons. Is there anything more I need to do, this is my first order hence I'm rather anxious to get the process correct.
Of course, we'll add some room for the gambeson, please don't worry. Simply add a comment with the measurements to your order.
Armor came exactly as described and am quite pleased with workmanship. Thanks!
Is the Gorget displayed in the images with these pauldrons available? I can't find it anywhere on the site.
The gorget can be made for $135.00 from 1.5 mm (16 ga) cold-rolled steel. Upgrade to 16 ga stainless steel is available for $40 extra. Shipping costs $34.00.
Hello, are the "Medieval Combat Pauldrons Spaulders Arm Armor" also made to measure? I need them for a small lady, so stock items wont fit at all... Best regards, Frank
Yes, one-size, which is suitable for most customers (men). We can make them smaller, just add a comment with the measurements to your order:
- shoulder length from neck to external point of the shoulder
- chest circumference measured along bust at widest point through the nipples
- biceps (upper arm) circumference measured at widest point
Please check how to take measurements here.
Does your company offer the option to make multiple payments on products?
Yes, we can divide your total amount into two payments if needed, please email us at email@example.com.
How much would it be to add vertical plates to these? Also, would they worsen the flexibility and manueverability?
Vertical plates (as here) - $25 extra. This should not reduce maneuverability, but note that such elements may be prohibited for use in some societies of historical fighting.
How do these spaulders attach to the gorget? Is there a set of these?
The pauldrons should be attached to the shoulders on your padding/clothing with the laces sewn to the garment, not to the gorget.
We have no set consisting of these pauldrons and gorget, sorry.
Just a quick question. The coat of plates in the picture. Do you make this product? And if so at what price? Zane
We don't produce the coat of plates any more, that model was excluded from our range, sorry.

So my boyfriend has been super stressed out lately cause he's a senior in college and he's been emotionally unavailable towards me so last night we decided too end things not cause we don't like each other anymore but cause he's stressed out and last night while I was crying my eyes out he had too hang up the phone cause I could tell he was about too start crying too.. He said he still wants too talk but I can't just be his "friend" right now and he said he can't say if we will ever get back together or not cause he can't make that kinda promise but I really want things too work out between us. And he said that it makes him upset and not happy too do this and that he's not going too talk too other girls.. advice?

Give him some space. Keep talking to him but don't pressurize him into doing anything. Let things flow, see where it goes. It may just be a phase he's going through and he may realize and come back, or he may have been looking for a subtle way to break up with you. It doesn't mean he'd want to date other girls right now, and he obviously still feels an emotional connection to you if he was about to cry. Give him a reasonable amount of time, stay in his life as a friend for now but be discreet and continue with your own life at the same time (=don't cling on him) and see if there's any progress in the next 2-3 months. If by then he's still 'emotionally unavailable' and hasn't taken any steps towards rekindling your relationship, then it's probably time for you to move on.00|00|0

Labour-market database for South Africa with HIV/AIDS detail
This paper describes the construction of a database that underlies the labour supply module developed for South Africa, with a specific focus on HIV/AIDS. The labour supply theory imposes a stock/flow dynamic mechanism on labour market groups distinguished by labour market activity, age, gender, race, and HIV status/stage. Broadly, the theory specifies that at the start of year t, people aged 15-65 (the working age population, hereafter the WAP) are divided into categories based on common characteristics. These characteristics are age, gender, race, HIV status/stage and labour-market activity undertaken in year t-1. People in categories offer their labour services to activities performed during year t. At the end of year t, people still part of the WAP progress one year in age and may change their HIV status/stage. Some people leave the WAP due to retirement or death. After this transition, people are again grouped into categories, based on common characteristics. The process of labour supply from a category to an activity is then repeated. For the implementation of this theory, we need to create a database that contains matrices that form the initial solution of the model. Three characteristics of this database are noted: (1) it contains detailed information regarding the structure of the WAP in the base year (2002); (2) it includes a transition matrix that allows adults to change their age and HIV stage between year t-1 and year t and (3) it includes matrices describing the flow of adults from categories to activities. This paper is organised in three parts. The first part describes the construction of the activities matrix in the base year. The activities matrix describes the number of people in each labour-market activity by age, gender, race and HIV stage. The second part of this paper explains the construction of the categories matrix and the flow matrices. The categories matrix shows the number of people in each labour-market activity by age, gender, race and HIV stage at the start of the year. The flow matrices show the number of people by age, gender, race and HIV stage, moving from a labour-market category to an activity. The third part of the paper describes the construction of the transition matrix. This matrix allows people in each labour-market activity, given their gender and race, to change their age from to and change their HIV stage from to .

As we saw in a previous lesson, the .NET Framework Class Library is split up across several different Assemblies, each within its own .dll file in the Framework library folder:
Assemblies are split into separate files to reduce load on resources, maximize efficiency so that we load up only what is needed to complete the task at hand, and to make code portable. This lesson will demonstrate how to create Class Libraries off of your own custom project code, and how to add references to resulting .dll Assemblies.
Step 1: Create a New Project
To begin this lesson, create an ASP.NET project called "CS-ASP_041" and in the Default.aspx add a single resultLabel:
Step 2: Add another Project to the Solution as a Class Library
For this particular Solution, we will want to add another project to it. To do this right-click on the Solution and from the menu choose:
Add > New Project…
From the list of templates select "Windows" and "Class Library," and name the project "HeroMonster":
And now you can access both projects within the Solution Explorer. If you want, you can even build the projects separately by right-clicking on one and choosing from the menu "Build":
Step 3: Create Custom Classes in Class1.cs
The "HeroMonster" project will come with a default class file called "Class1.cs" and in this file we will create two separate classes called Character and Dice:
Write the following code for each class:
Step 4: Add an Outside Assembly to a Project via 'References'
You can now add the "HeroMonster" project to the CS-ASP_041 project by right-clicking it's "References" within the Solution Explorer:
And then selecting it under the "Projects" tab:
Step 5: Incorporating the Assembly in Code via Using Directives
Now that we have a reference to this assembly in the CS-ASP_041 project, we can add it to our class files via a using directive. Note that this directive actually loads the code library from HeroMonster, whereas the assembly reference simply allows it to be available to our project. With the directive added, you can then reference a public class, such as Character, from that library:
Step 6: Porting Over the Battle Game Code
You can now fill out Page_Load() with the code we used in the previous battle simulation game project:
We will also need to port over, into this Default class, the following helper methods:
This is an identical application to what we built before, with the difference being that we partitioned out some "Domain-specific" code – the Character and the Dice classes – factoring them out into their own Class Libraries. This is noteworthy as it allows the classes to be reused in another project, which we can also accomplish by loading the .dll created in the project's bin folder when we ran the application.
Step 7: Adding HeroMonster.dll Assembly to a New Project
Open up a new instance of Visual Studio and create a new Project based off of a Windows Forms Application template. Even though we're not going to deal with Windows Forms in-depth, this will demonstrate how easy it is to port over our custom Class Libraries into a different project environment, requiring very little changes:
Once the Windows Form project is open, turn to the Properties Window (F4) and simply rename the project's Design Name to "resultLabel":
Next, right-click on "References" underneath the main project within the Solution Explorer, and select "Add Reference":
On the next screen you will want to click "Browse" and navigate to the folder for the project we worked on at the start of this lesson. Within that folder will be a bin folder that holds the HeroMonster.dll that was automatically built when we ran the application:
Add that .dll Assembly to the project and you will see it under "References" in the Solution Explorer:
Double-click on "Form1" in the Solution Explorer to open up the code for the Form Application:
Add the HeroMonster library as a using declaritive at the top of the script:
You can then copy all of the Page_Load(), displayResult() and printStats() code from the Default.aspx.cs in the original project – that depends on the HeroMonster class library code – and paste it into the Form1 class in the current Forms project (partially represented below, substituting Page_Load() with Form1_load() ):
If you build the project and everything is set up correctly, you should notice that there are no errors. Of course, some things will have to be changed considering that the HeroMonster code was for a Web Application and contains HTML. However, the main point here is to see how you can partition your code into individual projects, Class Libraries and .dll Assemblies in order to gain portability with the code you write.
Note that you can add references to existing Framework Assemblies using the same process. This is useful whenever you have particular functionality you want to use in your project and is already available in the Framework. To add an existing Framework Assembly, once again go to:
Solution Explorer > References > Add Reference > Assemblies > Framework
And select the Assembly relevant to your project in the right-hand pane:

Snow DaysLuther Tenny (Facilities Snow Guru, and master of the Snow Plan) keeps much better track of snow storms than I. The weather station down at the track records liquid precipitation year round, thanks to a small heater melting snow in the rain guage. This has recorded .91″ so far in January, compared to 1.35″ to date last year. In December, 1.92″ of precip. fell, as compared to 1.5″ in 2009. The difference this winter seems to be frequency.
Luther reports 11 snow events so far this year, a snow event being one all of facilities needs to respond to. An average winter contains 18 snow events in total. He also states 19 of the last 20 days in January has seen some snow, and 24 of the 31 days in December.
I never got around to posting this, but here's a great satellite picture of the nor'easter that hit us on January 12. I've lost the name of the site it came from, but I remember it's from the National Weather Service. We're in a break from snow now, as the bottom seems to be dropping out of the thermometer. Some of the coldest arctic air we've seen in 2-3 years is plunging south, so stay warm.

Similar to what the other users write, here is a superpower simulation that I hope you like.
Click the random button 3 times and chose 2 of the 3 pages to use as powers for you and your partner. If you get power thats is weak (i.e. Color Manipulation), to powerfull (i.e. Mind control or Omnipotence) or is useless for the situation (i.e. Mode switching) you can chouse anouther one instead. If you get Multi-power, you can chose 3rd option as a additional power to use.
NOTE: You must have a partner for this so you don't over power your enemy.
Your mission is to assainate the King-Pin of a major mob group who lives an well armed, tight security mansion in a biome that is 5 miles from your start point. Between that is a swamp full of deadly plants and animal mutations. Your objectives is to make through the swmp to find and disarm the security system, then head to the the mansion to take out the boss and escape before reinforcements arrive (if your detected that is). Use your powers wisely!

"Dino-topia... You think the name means a utopia of dinosaurs. Wrong. Look it up. It means 'terrible place'. I know. I've seen it..." — Lee CrabbDinotopia was an island populated by dinosaurs and humans in a utopia society. The population of the island had descended from shipwreck victims only, and a unique language, made up of many languages rolled into one, is used on the island.
The Island
Dinotopia was made up of a main island, and a much smaller one called the Outer Island. There were also many other smaller islets and reefs. Dinotopia's capital city was Sauropolis. The "main island" was approx. 240 miles (385 kilometers) in length, and approx. 260 miles (420 kilometers) in breadth. In the center of the "main island" was the Rainy Basin, which with the Great Desert made up most of the island. These two land-marks were separated by the Forbidden Mountains, a huge range that intersected a smaller mountain range called the Backbone Mountains. A truly spectacular place was Waterfall City; It was built in the middle of the Polongo River, a large river that held all the water from the Rainy Basin.
The World Beneath
- Main Article: World Beneath
A vast collection of caverns beneath Dinotopia. The dinosaur citizens of Dinotopia used these to survive the world-wide extinction of the dinosaurs on the rest of the world. The World Beneath also was where Sunstones are mined. Arthur Denison goes into the World Beneath through The Portal, in Red Rapid Canyon, which is near Canyon City.
"Dinotopian" was the name given to a citizen of Dinotopia. The Dinotopian culture was made up of many, many cultures from people of all corners of the globe. Ever since there have been shipwrecks there have been humans living on Dinotopia.
Different areas of Dinotopia had been built by different cultures from the past. For example, Waterfall City had Aztec or Mayan architecture origins and Sauropolis had Roman architecture origins.
Behind the scenes
Possible names before "Dinotopia" included Icland, Volcanda, Volcaneun, Canyon Padulong, Pantopia, Dinotolia, Belterra, Saurotopia, Poseidos, and Pelagion.[1]

Inferences- A guess based on evidence and reasoning
"Friends," a rich comedy series aboutsix adult friends, continues to serve hours of laughter. In fact, it becomes deliciously spicier with every season. Whether I watch a rerun about Joey accidentally buying a yacht or a new episode about Monica and Chandler getting hitched, the main dish on my plate will always be"Friends."
Based on this paragraph, I can infer that the author of this liked the TV show "Friends" because in the beginning they said that this TV show brings lots of laughter. They also said at the end that this show will always be the main dish on their plate.
"A touching human story of a time that makes us wonder how far religious and moral extremes could take us, this classic has not only survived but flourished. At once a dire warning and a moving story of the human will to survive, The Scarlet Letter is still read by scholars and laymen alike more than 150 years after its publication."
Based on this paragraph, I can infer that the author of this liked the book "The Scarlet Letter". They used very descriptive words to describe it.


text: Southwest Georgia Financial Corporation (the "Corporation") (NYSE Amex: SGB), a full-service community bank holding company, today reported net income of $571 thousand for the first quarter of 2012, up 52% from net income of $375 thousand for the same period in 2011. On a diluted per share basis, net income was up $0.07 to $0.22 in the first quarter of 2012. The growth in net income was driven by increases in net interest income and noninterest income. Net interest income grew $260 thousand on lower funding costs and improved earning asset mix while noninterest income increased $172 thousand primarily as a result of higher income from mortgage banking services. DeWitt Drew, President and CEO commented, "While the pace of loan growth has slowed and earnings have benefited from lower provisions for loan losses, we expect that credit costs will remain elevated over the near term. We continue to build a specific reserve for foreclosed assets at $75 thousand per quarter and continue to build the loan loss reserve to accommodate the growth we see in Valdosta." Return on average equity for the first quarter of 2012 improved to 7.88% compared with 5.57% for the first quarter of 2011. Return on average assets for the quarter increased to 0.71% compared with 0.48% for the same period in 2011. Balance Sheet Trends and Asset Quality At March 31, 2012, total assets were $318.8 million, up $4.6 million from March 31, 2011. The earning asset mix improved significantly due to loan growth driven by the Valdosta market. Total loans increased $16.0 million, or 9.5%, to $184.3 million when compared with the same period last year while investment securities decreased $20.0 million. Interest-bearing deposits with other banks remained artificially high at $21.6 million, a $6.0 million increase from the first quarter last year. Nonperforming assets decreased to 0.97% of total assets compared with 1.34% at the end of the first quarter 2011, primarily due to a decline in foreclosed assets of $858 thousand and a $224 thousand decline in nonaccrual loans. The reserve for loan losses increased $373 thousand year-over-year, to $3.2 million.

Bugatti Car Company
By Raza and Easton
Bugatti is a sports car company that was founded by Ettore Bugatti in 1909. The company has been making exotic sports cars for 105 years to this date. Ettore Bugatti died in 1947, and his son died before him in 1939. Therefore, no one was able to take over Bugatti Car Company. Someone bought it because Bugatti used airplane parts in their cars and they were going to use those for their airplanes. Later on, the company was bought by Volkswagen Var Company.
Bugatti was founded after WW1 and temporarily ended after Ettore and Jean Bugatti's death.Jean's death was before his father, Ettore Bugatti. Since that happened, no one could inherit the company.Then it was founded again after Volkswagen bought the company in 1998. Since then, the cars have been improved very much. Bugatti is the leading super car companies in the world.
The documentary below is information about the newest Bugatti super car.
Answers to Questions:
1. Automobiles Ettore Bugatti.
2. It is a technologically advanced car that is faster than other cars such as a Mercedes.
3. Ettore Bugatti started Ettore Bugatti Car Company in 1902. It was created because the cars in that time period were clunky and had many flaws. The Bugatti was almost flawless.
4. It was used like any normal car, but it was faster and more advanced than normal cars.
5. It was faster and aerodynamic than it used to be.
6. The Bugatti was a means for transportation.
7. In that time period, cars were very clunky and had many design faults. The Bugatti was created as an almost flawless car that could make transporting easier.
8. The Bugatti sometimes went out of control when you take it to its top speed, causing some accidents when it happened.
9. The Bugatti needed an advanced engine that needed to be made by combining two engines you find in airplanes. This is the use of engineering in the invention. Science was used in developing the car. Math was used to make the engine. Technology was used in everything for the developing of the car.
10. I would give it a speed thing to lower its speed if you go too fast. This can be optional.
Bugatti has only made a few cars since its "revival" when it was bought by Volkswagen Car Company. The Bugatti Veyron is one of them. It is named one of the best cars in the world. Below is a video showing a race between Bugatti Veyron and Lamborghini.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 12/6/2013 (1532 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
OTTAWA — Legislation filling a nearly 30-year-old gap in protection for women living on reserves passed through Parliament Tuesday.
The Family Homes on Reserves and Matrimonial Interests or Rights Act, also known as Bill S-2, addresses a void in laws dealing with marriage breakdowns on reserves in place since 1986. That year the Supreme Court ruled provincial laws dealing with marriage breakdowns did not apply on reserves.
Manitoba Tory Leader Brian Pallister was thrilled S-2 passed, as it was his private member's bill in 2006 that started the ball rolling to fill that void.
"It kind of made my day," Pallister said.
Matrimonial property is the term used to describe assets owned by one or both spouses but used by them both. The largest asset is normally the family home. Most provincial laws allow both spouses to claim a part of their joint assets when a marriage breaks down.
But with no laws on the subject on reserves, many First Nations women were left with nothing, forced from their homes, unable to see their children, and with little ability to fight back.
Unless their name alone is on the certificate of possession for the reserve home, a judge couldn't even issue a protective order to keep an abusive spouse away from it.
Bill S-2 compels First Nations to enact their own laws regarding the use, occupation and possession of family homes on reserves and the division of other property between spouses or common-law partners.
Until First Nations pass their own laws, there are provisions in the bill to be followed. Those include equal rights for both partners to live in the family home and an allowance so courts may order a spouse to be excluded from the home in situations of family violence.
Many First Nations don't like the bill, saying it infringes their rights, doesn't include proper dispute mechanisms and doesn't address many of the underlying causes of family breakdown such as housing shortages. It also doesn't give women any better access to legal aid to help them use the courts to assert their rights.

The point on a brisket is typically the fattiest cut. Pitmasters often trim the point (and select edges) off a brisket and return those pieces to the smoker.
Are burnt ends tough, chewy worthless cuts of meat, or are they heavenly bites of smoky goodness? It depends on who you ask...
Rather than discard the trimmings and fat, we choose to savor all the information that flows through the site. So, sit down and help yourself to some burnt ends.

San Antonio Reagan OL Derek Kertstetter wasn't a huge name in recruiting circles when he flipped his commitment from Oklahoma State to Texas. The Army All-American was overshadowed throughout the week by five star names on both sides of the ball. It came as a shock to some that Kertstetter was listed as a starter for the West team. The Texas commit just lined up and destroyed the man across from him more times than not. "It was great," Kertstetter told us afterwards. "It was just great to see what I was going to face at the next level, and it's been a lot of fun to play against everyone here."
Kertstetter started at guard, but he also played several series at the center position. That versatility will help him throughout his college career, but he said the Texas staff hasn't nailed him down on a position yet. "They have not said. Anywhere I can play is fine with me." Kertstetter is slated to visit Austin on January 13th, and he's looking forward to the visit. "Just to be in the atmosphere at Texas and get to have meetings with them. I'm just looking to enjoy myself in Austin, so it will be fun." The former Oklahoma State commitment flipped to Texas just a few weeks ago. The lifelong Texan said some state pride went into the decision. "I wanted to be able to represent the state of Texas and play in front of my friends and family. It's an honor to be able to represent them."
Kertstetter is still getting to know the other recruits in the class, but he has had some contact with the class leader. "I've talked to a couple of them. I've talked to Sam (Ehlinger) some and it's exciting. You can tell they are all really good guys." Kertstetter acknowledged that Ehlinger is the lead recruiter in this class, but he said he didn't get pressure from his future quarterback. "Not a ton, he was just cool with me. He was just nice, and you can tell he's a good guy."
Lancaster (TX) WR Omar Manning didn't get to show his skills at the Army All-American game. The elite wide receiver was dealing with a hamstring injury that's nagged him since competing at the Opening in the summer. The competitor in him thought about putting on the pads at halftime and coming out for the second half, but Lancaster's head coach Chris Gilbert was on the West staff, and he talked him down. For Manning, it was disappointing not to compete. The TCU commit visited Austin before the dead period began, and he told us all about it. "It was good. I got a chance to talk to the coaches and catch up with a few of the players."
Manning is getting attention from all the Texas coaches, but he has a connection with Drew Mehringer reaching back to his sophomore year. "He's been recruiting me since my sophomore year when he was at Houston. They were one of my first offers. He used to come to our school all the time, because we had Demarcus Ayers who played at U of H. He coached him, and he's familiar with me so we have a good relationship."
Manning also has a connection with new Texas offensive coordinator Tim Beck from his time being recruited to Ohio State. "He recruited me to Ohio State and showed me a lot of love. He kept communicating with me, and that's the same thing he's doing now that he's at Texas."
Manning is still committed to TCU, but he definitely has some decisions to make. He's pondering taking a few more visits including Baylor and Ole Miss, but he hopes to have a decision finalized soon. "I plan to lock things down before signing day," said Manning.
Quick notes on a couple of prospects in this class.
2017 Cedar Hill WR Charleston Rambo is still on the board, and if he visits Austin things could get interesting. We connected with a few sources this weekend who maintained that while Rambo likes Texas, he's deeply entrenched with Oklahoma. As of now we still think it is too little too late for the Longhorns.
There's been some talk that Temple DE Taquon Graham could be looking to make a move before signing day. We spoke with a high level source close to Graham this weekend who said that Texas is still in a really strong position, and Graham likes the relationship he's building with Oscar Giles. The source said he feels confident that his official visit next week could lock it down for good.
We spoke to a number of underclassmen at the Army All-American underclassmen combine to get the latest on where Texas stood with them.
2018 Allen OL Trey Stratford already holds a Texas offer, and he showed up to the combine in a Longhorn hoodie. We spoke briefly with Stratford during a break in the camp, and he was not shy about professing his feelings for Texas. "It was a dream come true when I first got the offer. I've always been a Longhorn fan from the moment I was born. All my family are Longhorn fans, and I'm really grateful for the opportunity."
Derek Warehime is the lead recruiter for Stratford, and he's had a lot of contact with the talented lineman. "He's told me that he thinks I'm going to grow a bit and be an offensive tackle, and he really needs guys like me that do well in the classroom. He needs guys that are natural born leaders.. Stratford told us he's hearing from TCU, Oklahoma State, and LSU as well. Stratford doesn't know an exact date for his decision, but he does have a goal in mind. "I plan to have a decision made by the start of the season, because I don't want to distract my team. That might not happen because I've only got to take one official visit to SMU, and I haven't been out to see that many places so it might not happen."
Stratford is planning to visit Oklahoma State, Texas, and SMU for junior days but he's open to hearing from more schools. It's early, but you have to like where Texas sits for this one.
2019 Coppell DB Jonathan McGill is a name to know for the future. We saw the talented sophomore at the underclassmen combine, and he impressed for the most part. McGill is coming off of a big season, and he's starting to see recruiting attention pick up. "I'm hearing from TCU, Oklahoma State, OU, and I've been in contact with SMU ever since they offered me." McGill hasn't heard from the Texas staff yet, but he did grow up a fan of the Longhorns. "Growing up in Texas you always like Texas, you always like TCU and the local area schools. TCU has been a favorite since I've been growing up, and so has Texas." Expect McGill to be a big name by the time he's a senior.
2020 Southlake Carroll DB RJ Mickens didn't look like a freshman in 1 on 1's at the combine. The son of former Aggie Ray Mickens had a big freshman season and earned 1st team all district honors. He's already starting to see offers com his way, and he's poised to be one of the best in his class. "Oklahoma State, Arizona, Oklahoma, and UCLA are recruiting me right now." Mickens hasn't heard from the Texas staff, but he said he would definitely be interested to. Growing up with a father who played at A&M doesn't automatically have him locked in for College Station. "He played, and the games were always on. I like Texas. I like A&M too, but I also like Texas." It's very early on this one, but remember the name in a few years.
Dallas Carter DE Jarell Cherry held an offer from the previous Texas staff, and we got the chance to catch up with him in San Antonio after his combine performance. "Overall the combine went well, and now I'm just ready for 1 on 1's." Cherry hasn't heard from the new Texas staff yet, but he's not too worried about that. "They've been focusing on the 2017 class, but I'm sure they'll be getting in touch with us soon." Herman's staff at Houston recruited cherry, but his primary recruiter was Major Applewhite. Cherry looks like a great fit as an outside linebacker in Todd Orlando's defense, and we expect communication to pick up with him after signing day.
West Mesquite DB Dayven Coleman is hard to miss when you see him. The big DB with recognizable hair and a big smile showed up ready to ball. Coleman told us that he's hearing from a lot of schools recently, including Texas. "I've been talking to Texas a lot. Syracuse is getting ready to offer me. I've been talking to Colorado, LSU, Alabama, Florida, TCU, and SMU." Coleman told us he's hearing most from Craig Naivar at Texas, and he plans to make a junior day visit to Austin.
Prestonwood Christian DB Jeremiah Lewis is a familiar face to HornSports. The 2018 playmaker crosses our path at many events, and we saw him once again this week. Lewis locked down the competition in 1 on 1's, and we spoke to him shortly after his testing was complete. "I felt I did well. I had a decent vertical. I think I did alright." Lewis was hearing from Texas and Houston before the coaching change, but he's still hearing from Texas since he was previously recruited at Houston. Lewis says he hears most from cornerback coach Jason Washington, and he's also hearing from TCU and Oklahoma State. Lewis plans to hit junior day for Texas and Oklahoma State, and he will compete in the Opening regional in Dallas.

That ended up deleting their account of which they had both many posts, blogs and profile posts. So I was like oops and installed Undelete Users by Waindigo but it did not restore anything. It just made their name and avatar appear again. I can't find any of their old posts or threads unless I come across them on the forum.
My question is, did I really delete their profile posts because it disappeared but their posts didn't?

Puppy Roasted Alive Over Open Fire
A woman in China has been captured on photograph roasting a live puppy over an open fire, using what appears to be a portable stove. ...
The gruesome incident is reported to have taken place at Kengkou market in Guangzhou, according to an article carried on a Chinese website.
The woman is seen grilling the live puppy with a pair of tongs, in front of a small crowd, including children. After a while, the dog's body appeared stiff and its skin slightly charred.
Respondents on the website were horrified by her actions.
One user known as VIP posted a comment, "Are you still human? Think for a moment, how would you feel if you were roasted alive/barbecued alive?"
Another who wanted to be known as Love, said, "What's wrong with people these days? They don't even seem like people/human anymore."
This abuse comes hot on the heels of another animal cruelty concerns in Indonesia where live cattle exports were subjected to mistreatment.

Let me introduce myself. My name is Mark Sisson. I'm 63 years young. I live and work in Malibu, California. In a past life I was a professional marathoner and triathlete. Now my life goal is to help 100 million people get healthy. I started this blog in 2006 to empower people to take full responsibility for their own health and enjoyment of life by investigating, discussing, and critically rethinking everything we've assumed to be true about health and wellness...Tell Me More
While caution is required in interpreting the longer-term benefits of surgery and weight loss, this study presents strong evidence to support the early consideration of surgically induced loss of weight in the treatment of obese patients with type 2 diabetes.
via Science Daily
I have to comment on this recent study that confirms, albeit circuitously, what we have said here for years: type 2 diabetes can be cured. In this case, the so-called medical solution falls under my Rube Goldberg term "Digging a hole to put the ladder in to wash the basement windows." In this study we see that portion control – when rigorously enforced using risky lap-banding surgery – actually improves insulin sensitivity and, hence, returns blood sugar to more normal levels. Duh. And don't you love this quote: "Type 2 diabetes is a disease that should aggressively be treated with surgery and not merely controlled with medications."? Wow.
I have said for years that type 2 diabetes is both preventable and curable in 99% of cases. It's a matter of appropriate exercise choices, portion control and the right mix of protein and healthy fats. Cutting sugars and simple carbs is critical to the process. It doesn't require risky surgical procedures. Watch those people on "Biggest Loser." No matter who they are, they ALL lose weight in a matter of weeks and they all experience big improvement in blood glucose metabolism. And they're not even cutting the carbs as much as I would have them do!
This video is from last night's broadcast of NBC Nightly News. Watch the whole thing if you would like but pay special attention to the quote at the 1:40 mark in the video. I am almost speechless.
On a related note:
High-risk morbidly obese patients who lose 5 to 10 percent of their excess body weight before undergoing gastric bypass surgery appear to have shorter hospital stays and more rapid postoperative weight loss, according to a report in the October issue of Archives of Surgery, a theme issue on bariatric surgery.
via Science Daily
People who undergo bariatric surgery are encouraged to lose 10% of their body weight before the surgery to improve their recovery! If they can lose 10% of their weight themselves in time for the weight-loss surgery, why are they having the surgery at all?

Is this bariatric or barbaric surgery?
I believe a chnage to a Primal or Evolutionary Diet would be the better alternative.
I only can see what has happened to me without surgery.
When it comes down to "weight loss" i don't believe in quick fixes. I believe that anyone CAN lose their desired weight if they just exercise and eat the right things. If they "believe" they CAN lose 10% of their body weight, why can't they "believe" they CAN lose "ALL" their desired weight!!! I also believe that it's wisdom if you want to lose weight to do it slowly which is the healthier way to do it. (Just my 2 cents)
Surgery is efficient yes, but not a fix. It takes a lot of hard work and dedication to lose it as well as keep it off. Some people feel overwhelmed with such high amounts to lose. Please try not to judge.
What you don't have, is a comparison of people who had the surgery and DIDN'T gain it back. We are the ones that you encounter on the street or at the gym, of a normal size, who you had no clue had surgery.
Also, the type of surgery makes a big difference. Lap band has a much lower success rate than gastric bypass. And yes, if friends brother wasn't compliant with the program, he'd gain. Thats why its only a tool, not a cure
I'd like to see a comparison of people following a low carb or paleo diet vs those having surgery.
"if I find a single MD who is healthier than I am, I will listen to what they have to say."
Start paying attention, Brian A

I had lapband surgery in march 2006. I was basically a "healthy" overweight person – but I believe I was with suffering Syndrome X type problems. My blood sugars were so screwed up that it got to the point where it really didn't seem to matter what I ate – my body was messed up – thanks for the "fat gluttonous slob" comment there Fixed Gear! :-/
I am not looking to argue with you "Fixed Gear". As I explained in my post there were deep underlying issues and I also used a low-carb method, not a "no-carb" method. Perhaps you can read my post again. I'm sorry you felt you were a glutinous slob – that's not a very nice way to view yourself. 🙂
i miswrote, she weighs 333, not 233. no time like the present to regain her health.

A high-profile doctor who encouraged board members at his Toronto hospital to get the H1N1 vaccine last week shot says he now regrets it.
Board members at Mount Sinai Hospital were offered the vaccine last Monday, the first day it became available, despite public health officials advising only those who were most vulnerable to line up for the shots.
Donald Low, chief microbiologist at the hospital, said a clinic was set up on the first floor for staff and others. There was no word of a vaccine shortage at the time.
"It happened to be the same day that there was a board meeting at the hospital. And I encouraged board members to get the shot," Dr. Low said today. "There was no indication that there would be any shortage."
"What seemed like a good idea at the time was a bad idea. And you got to pay the price for it."
About 65 people, including physicians, volunteers and board members, got the shots, and roughly 15 of them were from the high-risk groups. Dr. Low said. Those considered high-risk include pregnant women, young children and adults with underlying conditions.
In a statement posted to its website, the hospital detailed the timeline behind the decision, saying that a shortage was not expected when the board members were given the vaccination.
Dr. Low said that the next day, news of the death of 13-year-old Evan Frustaglio, which resulted in more people wanting the vaccine. In the days following, the hospital restricted the shots to high-priority groups.
Queue-jumping has made Canadians edgier, especially because many have to wait in long lineups outside clinics or be turned away because of a shortage in supply.
Ontario's Health Minister Deb Matthews told reporters today that she frowns upon hospital board members, not in the priority groups, receiving the vaccine. She said that once this pandemic is over, there will be conversations about "where judgment perhaps was not used as it ought to have been."
As the H1N1 virus spread across the country, the vaccine roll-out has hit a few bumps. GlaxoSmithKline, Canada's sole vaccine manufacturer, has said there would be a shortage of the product because it had to interrupt production at its Ste-Foy, Que., plant to make a version of the vaccine for pregnant women.
Public health officials have rebuked teams who have already got the shot, as other at-risk groups continue to line up for limited doses. Hockey players for the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Calgary Flames and the minor league Abbotsford, B.C., Heat have all been offered the vaccine.

Royal Marines converged on Falmouth from land and from sea as part of a gruelling Europe-wide fundraiser, |and took time to remember the St Nazaire raid.
To commemorate the 350th anniversary of the founding of the corps in 1664, marines are undertaking challenges involving skiing, cycling, sailing and canoeing, and running, with each leg consisting of 1,664 miles, and raising money for the Royal Marines Charitable Trust.
As part of the Plymouth to Falmouth section of the challenge, the corps team of captain Sam Morton, colour sergeant Richard Hayden, corporal Anthony Fairclough, corporal Tom Rounding, lance corporal Matt Robb and marine Tom Barker ran from Truro to Falmouth, while members of 42 commando were due to run to St Mawes before kayaking across the river. However due to logistical issues, they eventually arrived in landing craft.
The men assembled by the St Nazaire Monument on Prince of Wales Pier, where there was a short ceremony attended by the town mayor John Body, which included an address by Major Baz Lewis, officer commanding K Company of 42 Commando, followed by the last post and reveille.
Major Lewis said: "The 1664 Challenge is an extraordinary event, attempting to raise a huge amount of money for a very deserving cause.
"The Royal Marines Commandos, as the UK's maritime soldiers, have a natural link to Falmouth, through events such as the St Nazaire Raid."

If you would NOT date an inexperienced girl is it because you are not looking for a relationship and just a hook-up or fling?
P. S. I'd rather just have guys my age early to late 20's answer this please!! I know a 40 year old guy probably wouldn't want an inexperienced girl at his age ;)
Most Helpful Guy
19 and a half, but guess i'm close enough to answer. I don't have anything against inexperience really. It'd mean i wouldn't have her past experience to judge by, but it can still turn out well.
Honestly, i'd rather want her inexperienced than dating a girl with a reputation for running from guy to guy.
But yeah, i wouldn't really mind dating either, it's more down to who they are as persons11|00|0

I look back at our financial journey now and it's clear the one thing we did that totally changed our financial future was to try out living on one income before we had to. It's such a simple idea, yet it completely transformed our finances and has allowed us to live the life of our dreams (on a very average income).
The idea came to me when we were on our annual two-week holiday in Fiji. Crazy ideas often occur on tropical islands, I'm pretty sure that's a scientific fact.
In the taxi to the airport at the end of our holiday, we were feeling a little glum. I said something like, "I don't want to go home. Let's just quit our jobs and go travelling". Now, I only kinda meant it. But my husband said yes, even though he had no idea how we could afford it. (Side note: My husband has a way of validating my crazy ideas. He almost always agrees with my plans, and sometimes he says nice things like 'being married to you is such an adventure'. )
Never one to let the lack of money get in the way of a good idea, I quickly started to brainstorm ways we could afford to travel. We both earned OK incomes, and perhaps more importantly, we lived in a shared apartment with another couple which meant our weekly rent was about 10% of our combined income. We had no consumer debt but we did have rental property mortgages and my student loan payments to consider.

- The Mind Trick I Used to Cure My Credit Card Debt
From some rough scribbles (I'm such a pen and paper gal) I figured that we would be able to save 50% of our income if we were prepared to live frugally and make some sacrifices.
How we started living on one income (when we actually had two).
1. Write down your combined expenses
The first step was working out our actual cost of living. I completely ignored what we earnt and focused on what we needed to spend to stay alive. That included rent, food, insurance, medical, clothes, transport. With our very low rent, we had a surprisingly low essential cost of living. It was a complete eye-opener for me, as I realised then we'd been spending most of our money on nice things like eating out most nights, drinking at the pub (a lot) and going on holiday whenever we felt like it.

2. Give yourself an 'allowance' for fun money
Once the essentials were covered I set aside an amount for each of us to blow each week. It started off at $170/wk each (that sounds crazy to me now) and we eventually got it down to $100/wk each. I know that's a lot of money but we were young professionals we liked to spend a lot on our social lives. So at the time, it was tough to reign in our spending to under $170/wk.
3. Open a joint bank account and have both incomes transferred in
Both of our incomes went into one joint bank account. This was a simple online saver.
4. Establish an automated transfer of one income to a savings account
I set up an automated transfer out of the holding account each payday into a high-interest online saver. As I was on a salary, my income did not fluctuate so I allocated my entire paycheck to the savings account
5. Set up an automated transfer of joint living costs to an everyday/checking account
From the holding account, all joint living costs and expenses were paid. Plus our weekly allowance was transferred into there. We each kept our own personal cheque accounts to access our 'blow' money.
6. Micromanage your money for extra savings
This was my favourite part of each week (I know how sad that sounds). As Dave was paid each Friday I would get up early to log on to internet banking before work. If he'd worked overtime the week previous we'd have extra cash to allocate towards our savings goal. I kept a spreadsheet with percentages and would text him things like 'today we are 2% closer to our goal – YAY!!!!!'. Poor Dave stuck with a money nerd like me.
If we were able to spend less on groceries than we'd budgeted, or we had quiet weekend we'd have more to go into savings. I cannot tell you how many times I transferred micro-savings of $1.26 or $3.34 into our high-interest online saver. It probably wasn't healthy but I totally nerded out about that.
7. Invite as much extra cash in as you can
One of the largest benefits of living on one income is that any extra cash can be saved. So even though I'd earn more in my day job, little extras like taking paid online surveys, market research and using coupons and cash back sites whenever possible actually went a long way. Anything made from those little extras went straight to the savings fund.

8. Accumulate
If you've never saved money before you are in for a treat. Have you heard that saying 'Money attracts money'? Well, it's totally true. Once we had a few thousand in our savings account money just seemed to accumulate itself. At the time we were earning around 4.5% interest which helped greatly, but it was something else. We'd changed. Our whole perspective on money had shifted. We now knew how powerful our combined incomes were and with a little planning and sacrific, we could do whatever we wanted. Most importantly, we were shooting for the same goal – it was a joint effort and we were equal players. I don't think we could have done it if one partner wasn't highly motivated.
9. Enjoy
In May 2011 we boarded a flight from Auckland to Santiago de Chile. From there we worked our way up the continent to Bogotá, Colombia. We had a daily budget of $60USD to cover food and accommodation, and we managed to stick to it. We splurged a little on an eco-lodge in the Amazon rainforest and to stay in slightly nicer hotels when we were feeling burnt out. But that was just the beginning of our trip, after that we met my husband's parents in Los Angeles and enjoyed the City of Angels and Las Vegas with them before flying to the Cook Islands where we had a little wedding in the garden of our bungalow.
In total, we spent less than $9000USD for 4 months in South America, the US and for our super-cheap wedding in the Cook Islands. 3 months later I threw up in the waste-paper basket of my new temp job and realised I was pregnant. Thankfully, we had our money mindset all sorted so my first thought wasn't 'how are we going to afford to have a baby?'.
(It was 'Can you travel with babies? No seriously, before I even told Dave that I thought I was pregnant I went to the library to research travelling with babies. If you're interested, you can read more about that here and here)
My tips for living on one income (so you can save the other)
1. Start living on one income before you actually have to
We started 'living' on one income when had 2 incomes. It meant we could mess up and fail and make adjustments. Now we truly only have one income as I'm a stay at home mum but we are totally fine, we know how to live like this because we've been doing it for over six years.
2. Set a budget that gives you some wiggle room, you can tighten it later
Be kind to yourself when you are making major life changes. Give yourself an allowance to blow whichever way you like. And budget more than you think you'll need, you can always tighten it up later when you're in the groove of living on one income.
3. Have big audacious goals to keep you motivated
Whether you want to be a stay at home parent, buy your own home or travel the world with your kids, your goal has to be big. Little goals are easy to disregard, but having an audacious goal and letting everyone know about it will help keep you motivated.
4. Be prepared to change your lifestyle
Nothing changes if nothing changes. If you want to live a big, full life and do all the things, you need to make sacrifices. You might downsize your house, move to a cheaper suburb or take on an extra job. You might sell your car and start cycling everywhere. Keep your goal top of mind and it'll all be worth it in the end.
All our travel was amazing, and we have more planned. But it's the everyday living that is made easier by living on one income. It's the one reason I'm able to stay home with my boys and write this blog, taking freelance writing jobs as they suit. There is no pressure on me to earn money (although I'm super-ambitious so I have big plans for the near future) which is a lovely way to live when you have young children. For us, living on one income skyrocketed our savings account, taught us how to live within our means and on a budget and gave us the ability to appreciate the simple life.
It's my number-one tip for couples with two incomes – if you can do it (and I realise many can't), live on one income and save the other. I promise you won't regret it.
