Been seeing a girl for 2 months, one month exclusively. I told her my ground rules in dating that I don't appreciate jealousy and will not tolerate being disrespected. With that being said it has been a great time with her until this past weekend. While out for good ol' St Patrick's day I was talking with my friend's wife and my girlfriend turned to me and said "really?" as if I was doing something wrong by talking with her. She got pissed and actually left the bar, I saw absolutely nothing wrong with what I did and refused to go get her and my buddy ended up getting her back to the bar. When she came back and talked she mentioned she's a "jealous" person but promised this won't ever happen again which I highly doubt. She will probably just keep it in until one day it just blows up. In her past relationships guys have cheated on her and I have not given her one reason why I would cheat but I will never prove that I won't cheat, I shouldn't have to. Dating exclusively is enough of a statement that I won't cheat. I know I'm a flirty/good looking guy and have plenty of opportunities to make "friends" but when I do date women I treat them how they should be treated and I expect the same in return. I have extremely high standards and still debating ending this relationship because either way you look at it this will surface again eventually. Looking for some outside viewpoints.
Most Helpful Girl
It's really hard to trust lately and it's surprising how ruthless people can be in terms of cheating. People go years and years before realizing they're being cheated on. And the people that you would least expect it from are the ones who are doing it. Yes, it sucks that she's cautious and afraid of being hurt but sorry that's life. When you get hurt repeatedly, you're afraid of putting yourself out there. And to be honest, if you're a "flirty" guy, maybe you should have enough respect for your girlfriend not to flirt with other women in front of her. That's just basic respect. No other woman deserves your attention in that manner except for her. I'm sure in your head you were just talking to your friend's wife, but maybe she noticed you got a little bit more flirtatious than you should have.
You never know who to trust and just because you say you won't cheat on her, doesn't mean that that's the truth. People lie ALL the time saying they would NEVER hurt their significant other in that way, and they do it anyways. So maybe you should show her loyalty by not disrespecting her and flirting with other women in front of her. Because that's not gonna make trusting you any easier.
If you think it's not worth it to put a little patience and understanding into things then obviously she's not the one for you. Because if you really care about her, you'd be willing to work through things.

Ralph Krueger was fired on Saturday as coach of the Edmonton Oilers after the team missed the National Hockey League playoffs, general manager Craig MacTavish said.
Krueger had only been in charge of the struggling team for one season. MacTavish did not name a replacement.
"This was about me making a decision where I thought this was the best decision for the betterment of the club," MacTavish said in a statement.
"We're very close with a coaching candidate, but at this point we haven't formalized the deal."
Under Krueger, the Oilers went 19-22-7 this season, finishing 12th in the Western Conference.
They missed the playoffs for the seventh year in a row. Their last appearance was in 2006 when they made the Stanley Cup final.
Krueger was the Oilers' third coach since 2009 after Pat Quinn and Tom Renney both had short terms.
MacTavish had been coach for nearly a decade before then, including the year they made the Stanley Cup final.

Yesterday was an exciting day because Ringo and I did a full run through of the Prix St George test for the very first time!
...Actually, not quite. I've tried going through the PSG a few times now, but always in a super nebulous way because there have been so many pieces that simply haven't been there. It's been along the lines of, "well ok, the pirouette should theoretically go here, but we'll just make a small circle back to the corner instead in the meantime," or "I guess the tempi changes would go here, but let's just try to get across the diagonal with a single change without dying and call it a day this time around."
(We did do full sets of 4s and 3s out in this big lovely field the other day, which was definitely a confidence boost)
But yesterday was different. I warmed up very lightly, just enough to get Ringo feeling light and spry without tiring him out (a real concern for this test, as his fitness still isn't great and the hardest movements come thick and fast). After a quick walk break, I did a few of my favorite walk to half-step (ish) transitions to really get him thinking about stepping under with a long neck, added a touch of whip a few times behind the girth to get him a little more active behind, then came back to walk, took a deep breath, attempted to hitch up my big girl pants, and picked up the canter and set off. I was riding at home in my totally not standard size arena, so did my best to approximate. Here's how it went:
A Enter in Collected Canter
X Halt-Immobility-salut. Proceed collected trot.
XC Collected trot.
It doesn't seem like it should be that hard, but the collected canter entrance is something Ringo and I have really struggled with. When I first got him, he had a somewhat mystifying habit of pretty much grabbing the bit and bolting down the centerline, no matter what gait were going (or even if we were just turning up the centerline to then do something else like leg yield back to the rail). I eventually got this bad habit under control at the trot, but the canter still remained problematic. He would just start racing the second we turned toward C, making it inevitable that we'd have a crappy halt and a bad first impression to the test. Thankfully the pirouette canter has been super helpful in this, and as he's gotten stronger it has improved a lot. He was still a little squirrelly, but way, way better.
C Track to the right.
MXK Medium trot.
KAF Collected trot.
My medium trots re not great right now. They're not awful... but they're not going to score well. I wanted to work on the medium and extended gaits with Kim in my last lesson but we didn't get around to it, so I'm still hoping to get some tips before GMHA. I know it's a rider problem, because he's stronger than ever and I HAVE produced a good medium on him before. I'm just messing up somehow and I don't know how to fix it.
FB Shoulder-in left.
Good! This is our easier shoulder in direction, so I really tried to show off by having be a little slower and more cadenced like I've been working on in my lessons. It was a little wobbly because I was asking for more, but I think I can polish it to something very respectable in the next few weeks.
B Volte left (8m)
This was a time when I wish I had a real arena, because I have no idea how accurate the size of my circle was. I just tried to make the smallest circle I could. That said, it was actually a pretty good circle all things considered, as small circles are often one of those stupid movements that should be easy but that I mess up by making Ringo tight in the back or getting lazy with my geometry.
BG Half-pass to the left.
G On center line.
C Track to the left.
Kim has really been working on the half-pass with me, especially to the left (my weaker side), and wow! It really showed! For the first time, this movement actually felt sort of... easy? I can't say that too loudly or I'll jinx myself. But it was good to know that, when Ringo and I are on, we can do this with no problem.
HXF Extended trot.
FAK Collected trot.
Same commentary as the medium. I need some rider help.
KE Shoulder-in right.
Our tougher direction for the shoulder in, so I need to be super smooth with my aids or else Ringo will fuss and get tight in the back. Ok, but room for improvement.
E Volte right (8m)
Same as to the left.
EG Half-pass to the right.
G On center line.
Boom. Swag, baby. This felt really good. I love how the volte sets you up for a good half-pass.
Before C Collected walk.
C track to the left.
F Turn left.
Between G&M Half pirouette to the left.
You know, the half-pirouette actually wasn't that bad! This is a movement we've struggled with allllllll the way since second level, because when I first learned it I didn't ask very well, so Ringo learned a bad habit of sticking and pivoting with his hind leg instead of stepping around. Now even though I've learned to ask better, he still wants to stick, so I have to be proactive without making him tight. I actually got the balance right this time, and it felt good!
Between G&H Half pirouette to the right.
GM Collected walk.
Darn, I got a little ahead of myself. This one still needs work.
MRXV(K) Extended walk
I've been a little conservative with my extended walk so far this year, which is stupid because it's one of his best natural gaits and so I should show it off. I tried to go for it this time, and need to remind myself to be bold on show day too.
Before K Proceed in collected canter left.
KAF Collected canter.
Gah, another test where we have to strike off to the left, our markedly worse direction for that movement! I have to be 1000% on my game to make sure he's relaxed but collected in the walk, STRAIGHT, and going forward into the reins. Or else it's not pretty. If I don't get a good strike off (which this time around in practice, I didn't), I MUST use this first short side to get him going well or else the wheels. will. come. off.
FX Half-pass to the left.
X Flying change of leg.
I wish we could do this movement going the other way, with the right half-pass coming first, but here we are: beggars can't be choosers. So I need to go super deep into the corner, get his shoulders coming out of the turn first, then ride positively with more leg than rein to keep him supple. Surprisingly, the flying change has always gone pretty smoothly when I've practiced this movement, though I need to not take it for granted and make it as smooth and accurate as possible.
XM Half-pass to the right
M Flying change of leg.
MCH Collected canter.
The main problem I had this time was Ringo anticipating the flying change and so spoiling his (naturally very nice) right half-pass. I need to sit chilly and really guide him here to keep him on track.
H Proceed towards X in collected canter.
Between H&X half pirouette to the left.
THIS ACTUALLY WENT REALLY WELL. I WAS SHOCKED. I don't know how Kim would have rated it, but I was super thrilled.
HC Counter canter.
C Flying change of leg.
This change can get a little hairy if I don't settle and straighten him first. Fortunately this is quite similar to the Fourth level test, so at least we've practiced it a lot by now.
M Proceed towards X in collected canter.
Between M&X Half pirouette to the right.
AGAIN. THIS ACTUALLY HAPPENED. SO PLEASED. The circle was a little big this direction but he was more relaxed; that's always going to be the balance I'm going to have to strike, so I'm going to talk to Kim about which end of the spectrum I should lean towards on test day (I'm thinking bigger but more relaxed).
MC Counter canter
C Flying change of leg
Same as the other way. This is his easier change, so I need to be mentally sharp to not take it for granted. Then after the change, I need to really charge him up through the corner so that he won't be too slow or quiet coming into the tempi changes.
HXF On the diagonal 5 flying changes of leg every 4th stride.
FAK Collected canter.
The last change got pretty tense and up and down, but you know what, it was pretty good considering some of the ugly attempts I've had at the 4s in the past. Ringo and I both find the 4s harder than the 3s (more time to get tense anticipating), so it's something we've just got to keep working on.
KXM On the diagonal 5 flying changes of leg every 3rd stride.
MCH Collected canter.
Surprisingly good! Again, the very last one got a little tense, but in the grand scheme of things I wasn't complaining!
HXF Extended canter.
Ringo's boss move. I've just got to let it shine.
F Collected canter and flying change of leg.
FA Collected canter.
Ringo is actually pretty good at this move, but I've got to make sure I get him all the way back and listening to me before the change, or else he'll change super sketchily and tear off through the corner. Not good.
A Down center line.
X Halt-immobility-salute.
Ringo was definitely more tired by the end of the test and we had a slight return to our centerline bolting problems, but to a tiny degree compared to before. I could still work on our canter-halts too, but in general it wasn't bad. And most excitingly, WE DID IT!!!!! WE FINISHED!!!
So in general, I'm thrilled. Obviously it's easier to do at home where Ringo is calm and relaxed, but this was a huge confidence boost, as up to yesterday I wasn't sure if we were actually capable of stringing all the movements together, regardless of the location. There is a lot to improve in the next two and a half weeks, but I'm not feeling (as) foolish for entering now. We might still bomb at the show, but if so it will because of nerves/tension (which we can only fix by going in the ring and trying to work through it) as opposed to just being flat-out unprepared. I'm ok with that for right now. In fact, I'm getting excited!!
(In other news, my cat has started going on rides with me - very clever kitteh)

Grange Brass Flueless Inset Gas Fire is rated out of 5 by 1.
Rated 1 out of 5 by Anonymous from disappointed The transaction and delivery was a smooth process. When my Gas Safe engineer unwrapped the parts, the front artificial coal stack was cracked into 3 pieces, and then the brass trim which goes all around the edges of the fire was dented on one side. The packaging seemed adequate, bubble wrap and protective film, but the items were still damaged. I have taken photographs, I needed the coal tray inside during installation as the glass has to and seal the unit before it is tested. I have rang home base and spoke to Sandra who is chasing this up with the supplier. Its time's like these I wish I had bought in store or had the option, so I could just take the box, show the parts and have it sorted. Now it will be a waiting game....

Chapter VIII: Friday Night Is Movie Night
"I don't give a damn about what she said!"
Buffy forced herself to calm down – or at least level her tone to something resembling calm. "You have no right to even touch any of those girls, Spike. She could have used every swearword in the book and you still wouldn't have that right."
"Stop emphasizing things, Slayer, I get the bloody point. So you're saying I should've just let her –"
"Yes! If you hadn't gotten involved, she'dbe the one dealing with the consequences right about now. And believe it or not, Dawn can fight her own battles."
"She shouldn't have to. Not yet."
"She's almost eighteen! She's been through, what, two or three apocalypses? She can handle a wannabe bully. I'm only going to say this once: unless you're showing them a new throw technique or whatever, I don't want to see the shadow of a finger anywhere near a student. Try it and you're out. Understood?"
"Aye aye, Fuhrer."
"What was that?"
"Nothing. Can I get back to doin' my job now?"
Buffy conquered the urge to reply and gestured silently at the door of the teachers' lounge. As soon as it had shut behind him she exhaled and collapsed onto the nearest sofa. Xander, who didn't have any classes scheduled for that period, handed her a mug of coffee and sat down next to her. "Bad day?"
"Bad week. Giles managed to convince the Harper woman to fly over to deliver her first report to him personally, but he says he can't get her replaced without ruffling some serious Council-y feathers. Illyria couldn't be more of a teaching disaster, so Angel might be handling all their classes on his own. I haven't been able to talk to Dawn since before term started, and…" Buffy very briefly considered telling him about the stomach-churning morning sickness she'd been experiencing lately. "And the housekeepers still haven't arrived," she finished.
"It could be worse," Xander pointed out darkly. "There could be more than one Harper running around."
"Harper twins?" Buffy shuddered. "Thanks a lot, Xan. There's enough nightmare fuel to keep me up for at least two nights."
"At least it'll keep your mind off other things for a while." He grinned. "And besides, you're taking all of this way too seriously. I mean, think about it. I'm co-Principal, right?" He paused long enough for her to agree. "So if anything goes wrong and, say, a mob of angry pitchfork-carrying parents decide to storm the school, they'll be out for my blood just as much as yours."
Buffy laughed, sending her mouthful of coffee down the wrong way. And oddly, despite the highly embarrassing coughing fit that followed, she felt a lot better. At least for a while.
"Focus." Willow sat cross-legged on one of the large cushions provided exclusively for her classroom, extending her arm until the palm of her hand was directly above the smooth, round stone she had placed on the floor. "Remember to keep your breathing regular."
Twelve girls from various age groups sat in a wide semi-circle, all adapting a pose more or less identical to Willow's. A few of them had initially closed their eyes, but she had reminded them gently that this wasn't a meditation class and they needed to keep their eyes open if they wanted to be in control of what they were doing. She had realized early on that most of these girls had never practiced magick before and some of them had some strange preconceptions of what it would be like. A common question during the first class had been, 'When do we get our wands?'
"Focus on that stone, and your breathing, and my voice. Nothing else matters. Now, bring it up to your hand." Willow lifted her own hand to demonstrate, and the girls watched as the stone rose slowly through the air.
Three of the girls succeeded easily in lifting their stones, five of them managed to move theirs but were unable to lift them from the floor, and four achieved no result at all. Willow smiled patiently and told them that telekinesis was one of the most difficult things they would have to learn.
"Spells are easier to perform, but they could get you in a lot more trouble as a novice," she explained. "Don't expect it to come all at once. It's kind of like learning to swim – you need to splash around and embarrass yourself in the shallow pool before you can go anywhere near the deep end."
The girls seemed to appreciate this, but she could still see a lot of disappointed faces as they filed out of the class. After the last one had left she was surprised to see Angel standing in the doorway. She greeted him with a smile, but he seemed nervous.
"Can I, uh, talk to you about something?"
She was even more surprised by this, but tried not to show it. "Yeah, sure. You can come in while I put this stuff away. Or not," she amended hurriedly, "if you'd rather, you know, talk somewhere else."
"No, this is fine." He paused to try to phrase his next sentence, but then decided to just plunge in. "I kind of need a favor. Or actually, I need you to ask Buffy for a favor, since you probably have more pull with her than I do."
"Oh no," Willow assured him, "you have plenty of pull. It's not like you're a stranger or anything."
Angel shifted uncomfortably. "No," he agreed slowly, "but the person I need the favor for kind of is. And… I'm not sure she'll be too happy about it."
"What – the favor or the fact that it's for a stranger?" Willow asked, confused.
Angel sighed. This wasn't going to be easy. "Both."
"Nacho cheese flavored Doritos?"
Oz picked up one of the many bowls crowded onto the living room coffee table. "Check."
"Chinese takeout?"
Gunn put down the phone receiver and flashed a double thumbs-up. "On its way."
"M&M's? Popcorn? At least a dozen cold ones?"
"Check, check, and check." Buffy grinned. "And since that wraps up the entire list, can we please get started now? We've gotten through the first week of term without any accidental deaths, we should be celebrating already."
Xander gave her a stern look with his good eye over the edge of his clipboard. "You can't have a decent Horror Movie Night without the right equipment. That would be –"
"'Wrong on several different levels'," Faith mimicked, rolling her eyes. "We know, Xan-man. Let's get on with the heckling already."
"Hey, we're not just here to heckle," Xander protested. "We can all learn something from these movies."
"That a really high body count can't hide a tacky plotline?" Buffy said innocently.
"And that any honey who spends her time snackin' on newborns is bad news?" Gunn offered.
"Oh, and if a juniper bush starts doing some serious growlin', you should probably get rid of it," Faith added sagely.
"Night Of The Living Lawn Gnomes?" Oz asked, curious.
"Nope." Faith popped a handful of Skittles into her mouth. "Personal experience."
"A possessed garden plant? Really?" Buffy was impressed. "Don't think I've ever had to deal with anything quite that bizarre."
"Take that back, or I start listing 'em," Xander threatened. "In detail. Anyone want to hear about the giant-praying-mantis-disguised-as-a-teacher incident again?"
"Okay, okay." Buffy feigned alarm. "I take it back. Just don't go there."
"Is it just me, or is it really sad that we're spending a Friday night like this?" Gunn asked conversationally.
"Oh please, like Friday nights at old Wolfram and Hart were such frolickin' good times." Nobody had heard Spike enter the apartment, but after a brief pause Oz shifted on the couch to make room and Xander handed him a beer.
"Thanks, mate. What're we watching?"
"Stroke Of Midnight," Buffy told him. She sat on one of the armchairs with her legs tucked comfortably underneath her, and the look she gave him said she hadn't forgotten their earlier argument but she wasn't going to bring it up if he didn't.
He acknowledged this with the briefest of nods. Then he grinned. "Ah yes, that time-worn old classic. Wondering when you'd get round to that one."
"Quality viewing," Buffy agreed. "We definitely saved the best for … um, first."
"The first of many, hopefully."
Buffy snorted. "You're just saying that 'cause you're getting a free drink."
"More than one, love." He smiled. "And so what if I am? It's not like you're here because you're such a bloomin' big fan of –" He peered at the opening credits passing across the TV screen, "Candy Leblanc, Ace Blackfeather, Whitney Wilcox, or… Wait. Whitney Wilcox? Are they serious?"
"You got through Candy Leblanc without flinching, but you think Whitney Wilcox is messed up?" Xander smiled crookedly. "Let's hope you never have to name any kids, Spike."
"Hey, I could burden some poor little mite with a name as well as the next bloke," Spike protested. "Can't be too hard, they're doing it all the time."
"Could we please not discuss the possibility of Spike having kids? I'm getting nauseous over here." And to back up his point, Gunn was pulling a very realistic nauseous face.
"That's 'cause you just finished half the wontons on your own, you pig," Faith said, pelting him with her last few Skittles. "Besides, what you got against people having kids?"
"He wasn't talking about people, he was talking about Spike," Xander quipped. "And what, you get engaged and suddenly you wanna talk about kids? Isn't it little early to be getting all Mother Hen?"
Although she hadn't made any public announcements about it, the news that Faith was engaged was suddenly all over the school – not that she seemed to mind, even though students would come up and demand to see her ring on a regular basis, just so they could stand around oohing and aahing over it.
Faith shrugged, and to Xander's surprise her expression softened. "Can't blame a girl for planning the future. And it's not like I'd never thought about it before Robin proposed. It's a standard girl thing, wonderin' what your kids are gonna be like. Right, B?"
Buffy was staring vacantly at the screen, arms wrapped around her middle. "Hm?" Faith repeated what she had said and Buffy nodded slowly without turning from the screen. "Right," she agreed softly. Xander gave her a brief, searching glance and a slight frown crossed his features.
Thankfully, no one else had noticed anything.
Author's Note: I know Illyria's being kept in the background in this fic, but she's a difficult character to fit in, so she's probably going to stay there unless there's fighting to be done. Hopefully I'm not disappointing any big Illyria fans. :-P

Are you kidding? You're still young! Don't give up now! I often feel like I've wasted much of my life, but then I realize that there's still a lot left! You're already started on the journey to healing yourself! Because the hardest part of that journey is even stepping into the path! It's admitting to yourself that you're in pain and what's wrong in the first place! If you feel like you've lived a life that's always been set up by others, get up and do your own thing! You're obviously a very respectful person, so I'd recommend talking it out with those who've had your life set out from the start. Explain to them what's going on and how you feel about it all. Maybe break a rule, it won't be the end of the world! If you want to feel more free, stretch your wings a little, feel what it's like! Get out into the world, talk to people! There's so many things to do! Discover what you love doing and discover yourself :)00|00|0

Bought two of these for my wedding in May. Had some trouble with shipping though...the first time I was sent two dresses... One in the right size but wrong color and one in the right color but the wrong size. Had to send it back. Second time around I only received one dress in the right color and size. When they finally admitted they didn't know what had happened to the other dress, the size I needed was no longer available. I took a chance and ordered the next size down and got lucky that it worked. Overall, the dress itself is beautiful....very well made. A similar dress at a bridal boutique would probably cost close to $200. The rum color is much lighter... More of a pink champagne color. In the end, it was worth the hassle...the dress turned out perfect.Read More
Beautiful dress for a great price. This dress is for a wedding but it would work for a pagent as well.Read More

Paedo bashed in court by father of five-year-old victim
There were dramatic scenes in a Sydney courtroom as the father of a victim of a paedophile attacked the man at the end of his trial.
The defendent was convicted on two charges of aggravated sexual assault of a child and he was sentenced to at least six years.
But before the judge could finish addressing the court, the father of the five-year-old victim of the paedophile jumped over the railings and attacked him.
It is reported in the Australian press that the father landed a number of punches on the face of the 64-year-old, who screamed 'I'm innocent' throughout the attack.
It took five people to pull the father off the paedophile.
In addition, while the brawl was takling place the wife of the paedophile shouted at the child's mother that her daughter was a "liar and a bitch".
That led to the mother of the victim attacking her, also punching her in the face.
Now the two aggressors could face charges for the court room attacks.

Henderson excited to be back
Jordan Henderson is looking forward to his first return to the Stadium of Light after his £18million move from Sunderland to Liverpool.
Last Updated: 09/03/12 5:00pm
Jordan Henderson is looking forward to his first return to the Stadium of Light after his £18million move from Sunderland to Liverpool last summer.
The midfielder spent 14 years at his hometown club before making the switch to Merseyside.
The 21-year-old made his debut for the Reds against Sunderland at Anfield in August and was given a mixed reception by the away fans.
Despite that, the England Under 21 captain is looking forward to his return to Wearside on Saturday.
He said: "I am looking forward to the game but I expect it will feel a bit strange having to go into the away dressing room for the first time!
"It felt strange playing against Sunderland on the first day of the season.
"Although I have become used to the fact I am a Liverpool player, tomorrow is bound to be a bit odd for me seeing all the staff again."
Henderson remains a Black Cats fan despite his move and follows the club like any other supporter would.
He added: "I am really pleased about the way they have picked up in the last few months after a poor start to the season.
"I may have left the club but I still have loads of friends there and I want them to do well.
"I hope Sunderland win every game they play, as long as I am not on the opposing side!
"There is no reason why they cannot have a strong end to the season either because there are an awful lot of good players in the squad."
The midfielder insists he enjoyed his time he spent at the Stadium of Light, but that he had to make the move to Liverpool to further his career.
"I was happy at Sunderland but when a club like Liverpool comes in for you, you have to see it for the opportunity it is," he continued.
"I have won a League Cup medal in my first season and we have not given up on a Champions League place either."

Hyderabad: It is a coincidence that the word "Chandra (Moon)" forms part of the names of both the CMs of Telangana and A.P. Is it inauspicious is a big question. Numerologists predicted that perhaps the word "Chandra (Moon)" is not a good sign for both the States.
Congress leader of opposition in Telangana Legislative Council, Mr. Mohammed Ali Shabbir told that the pundits predicted that the situation will not be favorable for KCR after March 2017. It is quite likely that political situation in the state would create problems for the state. Mr. Shabbir further told that although he does not faith in Astrology but the predictions of the numerologists cannot be overlooked. He mentioned that during the nine year of Mr. Chandra Babu Naidu, A.P. faced drought and thousands of farmers committed suicide. In 2004, Congress assumed power and the monsoon situation in the State during the reign of Dr. YSR was satisfactory. After the bifurcation of Integrated A.P. , Telangana and Andhra states were formed and both the CMs have "Chandra (Moon)" as part of their names and both the states are facing drought. He further said that he will not demand the change of CMs but he would pray to Allah (SWT) for better monsoon and end of drought. He also told that it is the responsibility of those who believe in Numerology to ask their relevant parties to take necessary steps. It has become a common notion that for the failure of monsoon, the rural of the state is responsible. If the governance is good, rain falls as a blessing. There instances in the past that after the change of CMs, monsoon was successful and the farmers grew better crops. At present, people are struggling for drinking water. Along with rural areas, urban areas are also facing problems of drinking water.

APP OF THE DAY: Ben & Holly's Little Kingdom - Big Star Fun review (iPad / iPhone / iPod touch)1/16 Pocket-lint
It may come as a surprise to some, but not to the parents among the Pocket-lint team, that the various applications starring Peppa Pig are some of the biggest-selling titles on iTunes.
Now the other pre-school cartoon by the same production team (and many of the voice actors) of Peppa Pig has been rendered into app form and we are in no doubt that it'll do particularly well too. Because somewhere, hidden among thorny brambles, there's a little kingdom of elves and fairies and it's as addictive as crack to the kiddies (and their dads)...
Ben & Holly's Little Kingdom - Big Star Fun
- Format
- iPad (version tested), iPhone, iPod touch
- Price
- £1.99
- Where
- iTunes
Like Peppa Pig before it, the adventures of Ben & Holly - an elf and a fairy princess - have a cunning blend of silly characters, situations and enough comical asides to keep parents as amused as their toddlers. And if you're obliged to have TV designed for very young children on every morning of your life, you can do a lot worse than Ben & Holly's Little Kingdom.
Big Star Fun is the duo's first appearance in a mobile game, for all iOS devices. An Android version is being developed at present, but isn't ready in time for this review.
The game itself is actually a collection of four mini games. You can play as either Ben or Holly and the idea is that for each game completed a new sticker for a virtual sticker album is unlocked. These can then be used for a child to create a scene with their favourite characters, and there are four backgrounds on offer, all taken from the show itself.
As the mini games go, they're more complex than you'd initially imagine. There's a hide-and-seek-style game set in the Great Elf Tree, where Ben and Holly randomly pop out of windows and the player has to tap on them before they disappear. What makes it slightly harder is that other children or objects also appear.
Another, even harder game, has either Ben (on Gaston,the male ladybird) or Holly fly through a flowery field, collecting stars along the way, while avoiding bees and butterflies.
There's a game where you have to sweep up leaves outside the Great Elf Tree, which is more difficult than you think. And the final mini game has to swipe at Ben or Holly in order to throw a stick to collect stars, which is then returned to you to have another go by the dog-like Gaston.
Admittedly, that is about all there is to Ben & Holly's Little Kingdom - Big Star Fun, but with two skill levels - easy and hard - and pure innocent fun, not only your toddler will be returning for more, but you will be too. And, we have to be honest here, you may have to as you might find that on hard level you might not even complete some of the games first time.
Considering that it's almost half the price of one of the books, at £1.99 you... oops, sorry, the little 'uns... get a lot of value for the money.

READY IN: 40mins
Recipe by Stephanie_K
I learned this dish from my mother in law, who was born and raised in Manilla. I am sure you will love you this recipe.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 3 lbs pork shoulder, from any marketplace
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 6 minced fresh garlic cloves
- 1⁄2 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1⁄4 cup brown sugar
- 1⁄2 cup raisins
- 1 tomatoes, diced
- dried shrimp paste, compliments this dish very well (available at any oriental market)
Directions See How It's Made
- ~Prepare the pork shoulder by cutting the meat and fat into cubes. Do not discard the fat, this helps give the adobo its flavor.
- ~Use a sauce pot or wok and place it on medium heat. Add the olive oil and crushed garlic. Allow the garlic to soften.
- ~Then add the meat, (1 pork shoulder should feed about 3 to 4 people).
- ~Once the meat has browned, add the vinegar, soy sauce and ginger. Then cover and allow this to simmer for at least 10 minutes.
- ~Then add the brown sugar and lower your heat. Allow this to cook covered for 10 more minutes.
- ~Lastly add the raisins and allow this to cook for 5 minutes.7.
- I recommend serving this over a bed of jasmine rice. I usually prepare 1 to 2 cups of rice for this dish. If you have a rice cooker, I suggest starting the rice after your 2nd step. Traditionally, most rice cookers depending on its size takes 20 to 30 minutes to finish. Allowing your rice to cook while you cook will allow both items to finish at the same time.

Hello butterflies! You know what time it is. Yup, my August favorites. How is August already over? I feel like it just started. This month I turned 25 (EEK!), made some progress on the house we're purchasing (longest. story. ever.) and am celebrating our five year anniversary with my fiance tomorrow.
I feel like this month was the "Return of Past Favorites" mixed with some new stuff. I think that whenever I'm transitioning into a new season, I stop trying new things and I'll just keep wearing my favorite stuff from the previous season. Does that make sense?

True or False Lashes in Monroe
So last month, True or False was having a sale where you could buy up to four boxes of their new lashes "Monroe" for free, just pay shipping (Just checked and the deal is STILL currently going on!) Needless to say, I was all over that, for just the deal alone and hey, trying out new lashes was an added plus. I ended up absolutely loving these lashes! These are very va-va-voom and in yo face type of lashes - just like Marilyn would have them!
MAC Heaux
If the name alone doesn't make you go run out and buy it, I don't know what will. I kid. But I think everyone saw that this was going to be in my favorites. I gave it a pretty glowing review, if I do say so myself. This lipstick really just embodies everything I could ever want: a deep red (but no too goth), matte (but not super drying) and leaves a nice little stain. Oh, and my gurl RiRi collaborated with MAC to make it. No big deal.
MAC Soft Matte Lip Cream in Milan
I'm almost positive this was in a favorites post a few month's back and it's stuck around since. I really don't know how to describe this other than that it goes on like a lipgloss but appears as a matte lipstick. MIND BLOWN.
Maybelline Telescopic Shocking Extensions Mascara
I know 100% for a fact this has been in a few favorites posts. I can't seem to find anything better. It lengthens, volumizes and doesn't clump? LOVE LOVE LOVE.
Sigma Beauty Performance Eyes Kit + E20 Short Shader
Talk about absolute life-changing. As someone who is still a beginner (at some things) it the beauty world, nothing is more frustrating than trying something out and not having the right tools to make it work. My biggest issue with eyeshadows is that even with the most pigmented ones, using a not-so-great quality brush would make them not blend well, not pick up enough of the eyeshadow, etc. and it was extremely frustrating. These brushes totally ended that frustration. Each one does its job so well. They make blending easy peasy. They pick up product. They're just so awesome and I can't rave about them enough!
KB Shimmer Excuse Me, I Blurped, You Go Ghoul! & LCN Hot Chili
For swatches of the KB Shimmer polishes, check out my review here! I loved these two and can't wait to rock them for fall. I also reviewed LCN Hot Chili (and the rest of the collection) here and will let the swatches speak for themselves. Ay papi!
Bath & Body Works Sexy Dahlia Rush Body Spray
Oh my goodness, guys! I picked this during one of B&BW's sales and died because it smelled so good. Description says it smells like wild dahlia and black jasmine wrapped in velvet plum and I feel like there's some apple top notes or something in there.
Bath & Body Works Mahogany Teakwood
Yes, I've had this in my favorites before. Yes, it smells exactly like Abercrombie & Fitch. Yes, I love that smell. It reminds me of fall and back to school shopping so much. Thank you to my friend, Nicole for getting this for me for my birthday :)
Charlotte Russe Spike Necklace
Let's all just sit and stare at this necklace. I am so in love with it. I wore it for my birthday and received so many compliments. It's edgy with the studs, yet girly with the big pink stone.
Favorite Vloggers / Bloggers:

What were your favorites this month?
Howdy all! Today I have for you some old KB Shimmer polishes that Christy had sent with the KB Shimmer Fall collection. Let's check them out!
The Dancing Green, Iris My Case and Ice Queen
Ice Queen - is a mix of micro, hex and diamond holographic glitters in a clear base.
This is two smooth coats over China Glaze Sweet Hook. I love this! It looks like a disco ball on my nails.
Iris My Case - is a violet base with pink, purple, white, periwinkle and blue glitters.
This polish screams spring to me although I think you can wear it all year round. I love the speckled effect it has. This is three smooth coats for full opacity.
The Dancing Green - is a bright emerald base with fuchsia square glitters, chartreuse dots, sapphire hex glitters and fuchsia dots.
How fun is this polish? I don't normally fall in love with green polishes but this is fantastic!
This is two coats but I think three coats would bring it to full opacity.
So what do you all think of these polishes? Do any of you own KB Shimmer nail polish?

Hey beautiful! How was your weekend? I celebrated my 25th birthday this weekend with hibachi Friday night, shopping at Captain's Cove with my family Saturday and then a party Saturday night, a picnic on Sunday and finishing it all off with a Toby Keith and Kip Moore concert. PHEW! Thank goodness I have this whole week off to recuperate (and blog my butt off)!
Let's hop right into this week with an Ipsy bag review! For those who don't know what Ipsy is,
This month's theme is "Glamour Academy" - Get ready for your first day at the "Glamour Academy" at ipsy! This month's August Glam Bag is perfect for the professional or student. It's full of beauty essentials that are perfect for stashing in your school bag or when you're prepping for your next big party!
Sneak peek of what's inside!
The Bag - A royal purple material with gold print. This bag is perfectly-themed for back to school. I love that the crest has beauty products in it. So cute!
Pixi Beauty Lash Booster Mascara in Blackest Black
As a mascara freak, I was excited to see this in my bag but after using it, I can honestly say it didn't do much for me. Sigh. I didn't notice any difference in my eyelashes minus them being covered in mascara. It didn't lift. It didn't lengthen. It didn't volumize.
Pixi Beauty Lash Booster Mascara
MicaBeauty Cosmetics Eyeshadow in Bronze
Bronze is a mid-toned shimmery brown eyeshadow. This eyeshadow is super pigmented, smooth and easy to blend. The website says you can mix this into clear lipgloss, nail polish or mascara for color. MicaBeauty also boasts that they're extremely gentle, free of preservatives, chemicals, dyes, talc, oils, and other fillers.
Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer
I really like this primer! It's velvety smooth and is oil free. It says it helps reduce the appearance of pores and fine lines and creates a smooth foundation. I do find it comparable to Benefit The Porefessional but I think Benefit's primer is better and cheaper.
Michael Todd Pumpkin Nutrient-Rich Facial Mask
Yay! I had my fingers crossed this one would be in my bag. This facial mask is made with pumpkin and glycolic acid. I have yet to use this but I can't wait to try it.
"This rejuvinating facial treatment removes dead skin, impurities and toxins, moisturizes and firms, improves elasticity and pliability of the skin, unclogs pores allowing skin to breathe and facilitates movement of skin oils. Adds brightness and radiance to the skin and significantly improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles."
Urban Decay Revolution Lipstick in 69
Wee! Another product I was hoping would be in my bag! I received the color 69 which is a bright red with pink undertones. It is so pigmented and left a nice stain after wearing off around 5 hours.
So what did you guys get in your bag? If you aren't subscribed to Ipsy, what product would you like to try?

Good afternoon, gorgeous! On the blog today is my review of my first ever Lime Crime lipstick - Babette! I've always wanted to try Lime Crime because they're a cruelty-free vegan company and I really admire that. When the press release for Babette came out, I died and knew I had to have it! Let's see if Babette matched up to my hype!
Lime Crime Babette
First off, the packaging is SO FUN! Even the box that it was shipped in was all white on the outside but the inside was hot pink polka dots and lime green tissue paper. A+ on that!
And the unicorn! How adorable is this?
Lime Crime Babette
Babette - is described as a pastel coral and to think of it as Coquette's pinker sister.
I agree that it's a pastel coral but one thing that bothered me is that this looked so different on me than shown on the site. Wahh. It's still pretty though. On me, it seemed a bit darker. That being said, it's super pigmented and is very thick and creamy. It did settle into my lip lines a bit within a few hours but never felt dry to me. Some have said Lime Crime lipsticks smell like vanilla (a la MAC) but I didn't smell it. Lasting power was about two hours. Overall, I really like this color and the formula. It's so smooth and creamy to put on.
What do you think of Babette? Would you buy it?
Availability: Currently sold out on Lime Crime
Price: $15.99

Hello (again!) dolls! Awwww yes. It's a two posts in one day kind of day! I'm feeling pretty darn productive if I do say so myself. *Brushes shoulders off*
I have swatches and a review of the LCN Shades of Desert Collection - inspired by the bold, colorful hues of the Orient, this quad of jewel-toned hues embodies all of the luxury and mystery that is the Far East.

LCN Shades of Desert Quad
Shades of Desert Collection
Pink Pepper - is a jewel-toned magenta.
First off, I love the name! The polish itself is fantastic. One smooth coat was full opacity but if you're OCD like me and think it always needs at least two, that's works too :)
Fiery Cumin - an exotic, spicy orange.
I didn't think I was going to like this but I think it's my favorite from the collection. One coat will do the trick. Excuse the indents in my nails. I had one stickers before this and the removal was not kind to my nails. Wah.
Blue Oasis - a cool, calming turquoise.
Besides one coat giving me full opacity, I feel like I have a million of these turquoises and it didn't seem to stand out. I will say that this is the best formula of the turquoises I have.
Hot Chili - a bold, passionate red.
OHEMGEE. I love this red! It's almost neon, that's how bright and bold this baby is. Two coats did the trick for me and were super smooth. This is the perfect cherry red.
Availability: In stock on LCN
Price: $7.50 each or $24.90 for quad
What do you think of this collection? How amazing is Hot Chili and Fiery Cumin?!

Happy Sunday everyone! Fingers crossed this next week flies by because Saturday is my birthday (!!!!) and the week after, I have off from work. Expect LOTS of posts that week!
As for today, I have my first fall collection of the year to show you all and I think you're going to flip over it - it's the KB Shimmer Fall 2013 Collection! Let's check it out.
KB Shimmer Fall 2013 Collection
You Autumn Know - is a white crelly with fuchsia, gold and orange hex glitters and micro bars sprinkled in. This polish is inspired by the first snow of the year lightly covering the crunchy autumn leaves.
This is two very smooth coats. For those who don't want to layer for opacity, this would be fine over just a plain white polish.
You Go Ghoul! - is a black jelly with grape, berry and orange hexes and glitter mixed in.
I love, love, LOVE this polish and these colors together. This is one you can rock on Halloween as well as year round. This is two very smooth coats but is still a little see through. I recommend three coats or using a plain black polish as a base for full opacity.
GUYS. This polish is amaze-balls. This is three very smooth coats. For some reason, this picture is giving this polish a more pink-ish tone, but I would say this is more red in person. Do you see those holo circles!? Ahhh. So fun. I had no issues pulling those circles out of the bottle.
Ahh, this is such a fun polish and I love the name of it. This is three smooth coats with no top coat.
What an unexpected yet AMAZING surprise to find a matte polish in this collection. This is two coats. The formula on this was absolute perfection.
Turbulence - is a satin matte finish slate gray inspired by storm clouds with silver flakes and micro blue and fuchsia sparks inspired by lightning and rain.
This is one of my favorite polishes from this collection! I just love the sparks and flakes in this. It turns a simple grey into so much more. The formula was awesome and smooth. This is two coats.
Teal Another Tail - is a teal green polish with a pink duochrome shimmer. Inspired by a mermaid's tail.
Oh hello! Right off the bat, this polish reminds me of RBL Aqua Lily on steroids. This is so chock full of duochrome, it's ridic. I mean, I still have this on which I think proves a huge point. This is two incredibly smooth coats.
Availability: KB Shimmer / Release date is Sept. 1st!
Price: $8.75

So what do you guys think of this collection? My absolute favorites are Turbulence, Teal Another Tail and You Go Ghoul!

Hi dolls! So a few weeks ago, Sigma Beauty had a crazy 20% off sale going on and I decided this was the perfect time to go cray cray and buy a few things I always wanted to try out!
So I ended up getting the Sigma Beauty Limited Edition Resort Palette, Limited Edition Paris Palette, the Performance Eyes Kit and the E20 Short Shader brush. Let's check them out!
Limited Edition Resort Palette
I have been dying for this palette since it came out earlier this summer. The colors in this palette seem to be perfect for summer time and are very bright but totally wearable. I don't think I would've even thought about purchasing this palette if it wasn't for LollyDolly28 and Casey Holmes rockin' amazing eyes with this.
Limited Edition Resort Palette
Limited Edition Resort Palette
Neela & Midori
Really? Like, how beautiful are these two colors?
Luna & Topaz
Quick swatches show Topaz being extremely pigmented and Luna being amazing for an inner corner of the eye highlight.
Muse & Fawn
Every summer palette needs some beautiful neutrals!
I really like that they added a summer-appropriate blush to this. The color is ah-mazing!
Luminesce Liquid Highlighter & Dual Eyeliner in Daydream and Earth Goddess
I couldn't ask for more in this palette. 8 eyeshadows, one blush, a highlighter AND (technically) two eyeliners!? DEADY DEAD DEAD.
Swatches of Daydream, Earth Goddess & Luminesce
KILL-ER, guys. These eye pencils are out of this world. So pigmented and creamy. I'm a tid bit nervous of this hightlight (Hi, I'm pale and gold may not work for me as a highlighter) but I'm excited to find some way to work this.
Sigma Beauty Performance Eyes Kit
After hearing nothing but rave reviews about their brushes, I knew I had to try them. I chose the Performance Eyes Kit (although it was a toss up between this and the Mr. Bunny Kit). The kit includes eight high quality brushes that range from an eye liner brush to blending brushes to crease brushes. It's everything I could ask and more for an eye kit. The brushes are SUPER soft and it feels like I'm rubbing nice, soft, hair pillows on my eyes (weirdest analogy award goes to...). I'M USED TO SCRATCHY BRUSHES OK!?
Performance Eyes Kit
Wee! A fun picture to show you which brush is which.
Sigma Beauty Limited Edition Paris Palette
Truth? I have no clue what made me buy this. Probably that damn "limited edition" tag again. It was a total whim and THANK GOODNESS because this palette is heaven. What I really like about this was that seven beauty gurus on YouTube came up with this palette - everything from the packaging to the brushes! Each one had a monument to get inspiration from to make their eyeshadow.
Eiffel & Seine
Excuse Eiffel's surroundings. It looks like some of the edges of the eyeshadow broke off and it was EVERYWHERE. Also, Eiffel is EXTREMELY pigmented. Like, holy crap pigmented. Eiffel developed by MakeupbyTiffanyD / Seine developed by all the beauty vloggers.
Louvre & Orsay
Sweet niblets. I haven't swatches these yet and I'm so afraid Louvre is going to be chalky but the color is beautiful. Louvre by Petrilude / Orsay by MACNC40.
Elysees & Notre Dame
Yay for some gorgeous purples! Elysees by DulceCandy87 / Notre Dame by xteeener.
Triomphe & Versailles
JAW. DROP. Just look at these two. Do you guys see the duochrome in Triomphe? Triomphe by frmheadtotoe / Versailles by xsparkage.
Rouge, Peche & Lumiere Blushes/Highlighter, Large Angled Contour Brush & Eye Shading Brush
Another full circle palette. I love how much this includes into it and the Paris theme flows through. I have yet to try these blushes but I really like how they seem to be universal.
So how much did I save? Total I would've paid with no discount? $179.55 and total I paid with discount? $147.15 - Cha-ching! $32 saved! I'm so thrilled with everything I've purchased and can't wait to put up full reviews of these palettes and brushes!
Anyone else buy anything from the Sigma sale? Anyone have these palettes? What do you think?

On March 2, 1975, eight university representatives met in Harrisburg, PA, to discuss the formation of a new collegiate basketball association. A similar meeting was also held on May 23 of that year, with the final formation of the Eastern Collegiate Basketball League announced on August 13, 1975. The NCAA granted allied affiliation status upon the ECBL on October 15, 1975, and granted the league an automatic berth to the NCAA Tournament on June 17, 1976.
The ECBL began operation at the start of the 1976-77 season with Duquesne, George Washington, Massachusetts, Penn State, Pittsburgh, Rutgers, Villanova, and West Virginia as its charter members. Several changes happened quickly in the ECBL, the first coming in 1977-78 when the league changed its name to the Eastern Athletic Association - better known as the Eastern 8 - to reflect its changing mission. That year, the Eastern 8 became more than a basketball league as the men's sports of baseball, cross country, golf, swimming, and tennis were added to the championship schedule.
The next major change came in 1981 when the office of the commissioner was instituted. Leland Byrd, who had served as president and executive director of the league since its inception, as well as athletic director at West Virginia, was named the Conference's first commissioner and established the commissioner's office in Pittsburgh. Byrd guided the Eastern 8 through several membership changes as Rhode Island, St. Bonaventure, Saint Joseph's, and Temple replaced Pittsburgh and Villanova. After membership stabilized, the Eastern 8 transformed into the Atlantic 10 Conference with Byrd orchestrating the drive to make the league more broad-based as the women's sports of basketball, gymnastics, softball, tennis, and volleyball were added to the championship slate.

I wonder this. People tend to just go through the main feed but people need to check out that part because it's getting so full lately! Then people will get more opinions for their questions. :)10|10|0
i'm da only who does as it seems... :|
- Show AllShow Less
As soon as anyone posts an opinion on one of them, it no longer is in the "No Opinion" section, so all that gives the asker is one opinion, not more opinions.
@Red_Arrow I know but when you answer them, it shows up in the feed and they usually get more eventually.

The +1 xper had it's advantages and disadvantages. Since then, less people have been motivated to go there due to no incentive. Not all the people were xper hunters. I don't know, I wouldn't be opposed to bringing back the +1 xper for this.
Perhaps maybe a +1 xper point if the question doesn't get an opinion after a certain amount of time, like a day or whatever? So that it will reduce clutter at the bottom while still discouraging xper hunters from quickly answering whatever new posts there are first?
The other problem is that I can't go down to the bottom of the section without hitting "show more posts" a hundred times. It makes it frustrating to answer questions at the bottom of the page.10|10|0
i do dat often though... :|

I was wondering why all the ones at the bottom tended to be "girls only" questions xD

Looking at the facts on the 2012 Acura RL spec sheet, you'd expect it to have promising performance credentials. There's a big, high-revving, 300-horsepower V-6, a new six-speed automatic with paddle-shifters, and a sophisticated SH-AWD all-wheel drive system to put the power to the pavement (and smartly manage it from side to side) even on tight, roughtly surfaced corners. But somehow, something's missing in the translation to the driver's seat. But somehow it doesn't manage to transmit those sensations through the driver's seat.
The RL's (271 pound-foot) engine isn't the torquiest off the line, but it builds to a sonorous and impressive power peak, for as quick of a super-legal two-laner semi pass as we could ever see laid-back drivers wanting. And one longtime problem with all V-6 Honda and Acura cars—lumpy, almost harsh shifts on gentle acceleration—seems to have been completely solved with the six-speed automatic, which with a multi-clutch torque converter adds smoothness while boosting fuel economy.
And there's something in the way the RL is tuned (and how well it's isolated, perhaps) that doesn't invite you to drive it hard, but it has no problem being driven fast. Thanks also to the isolation, you'll likely end up pushing way past the speed limit because. Body motion is kept well under wraps, but you don't give up any comfort, so it's a go-fast touring machine capable of eating up the miles. But, that said, the RL isn't on the same level as some sport sedans, because It's let down by numb, innocuous steering and overall, a dynamically isolated feel that keeps you from pushing it hard.Otherwise, we'd wish for a steadier brake feel as well. While they're strong, they have an initial, almost overboosted bite that can take some getting used to.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, and good with dogs.
Here's a little bit about my background. Back in late June 2016, my owner decided they didn't want me for whatever reason -- I have no idea why -- and they decided to take me to the pound. If you know anything about the pound, it's not the safest place to be for a dog like me -- black pit bull mixes tend to get killed pretty quickly there. It's sad, but true. But, I just kept my head up and kept a big smile on my face, knowing I would be okay somehow.
And, guess what?!?! I was right! CageFree came across my happily wagging tail and decided to save me! I'm having a great time here at the rescue facility, while I'm waiting for my new family to come along. I get lots of attention from all my human friends here, which I love, and I also get to play with other pups. What could be better? Well, of course, a forever home would be better!
I'm ready to go to my new home right away. I have all my shots, I'm already neutered and I've been microchipped, too!
So if you think you're the right match for me, please contact CageFree right away & tell them you'd like to meet me. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!
MITCH (video), a Los Angeles Labrador Retriever/Pit Bull Terrier dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Labrador Retriever/Pit Bull Terrier for sale in Los Angeles, or seeking a Labrador Retriever/Pit Bull Terrier dog from a breeder in Los Angeles.

Despite strong sales in recent years, Subaru has long faced a major challenge in the American marketplace: Because of its commitment to all-wheel drive—standard on all vehicles except the Toyota-fied Subaru BRZ—the brand's vehicles have struggled to achieve the kind of high fuel-efficiency ratings offered by the front-wheel-drive competition. Things began to change when the all-new Subaru Impreza was engineered to achieve up to 36 mpg, yet that was still a full 6 mpg behind the FWD segment leader. The next new Subie, however, will mark a notable breakthrough. The 2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek will be able to reach 33 mpg on the highway, giving it not only the highest marks of any AWD crossover in the nation, but also the exact same EPA grade as high-efficiency FWD choices like the redesigned and EcoBoosted 2013 Ford Escape.
The starting price for the 2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek? A mere $21,995 for the Premium model and $24,495 for the up-level Limited version.

Immediately after taking office earlier this year, President Obama worked with Congress to put together a bold response to the economic challenges and hardship that Americans have been facing.
The stimulus package, known formally as the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, has already made a difference, helping to jumpstart our economy while also making important investments -- in education, health care, clean energy, new technology, infrastructure and transportation -- that will continue to pay off well into the future.
I remain concerned about the high level of unemployment in California and nationally and will continue my efforts to help put more Americans back to work. Although we have a way to go, there are signs that the economy is indeed rebounding and job losses are slowing. Economists credit the stimulus package for preventing a more severe crisis and even higher unemployment.
Funding in the stimulus package has prevented layoffs of many nurses, police officers, firefighters and teachers, enabling them to continue both to provide for their families and serve our communities. In addition, the stimulus has created jobs for workers constructing and repairing vital infrastructure and transportation projects.

Conditional emails should be indicated in emails listAsked by SunbridgeInstitute on April 26, 2016 at 12:57 PM
Many congratulations on the new look of emails--it is very easy to follow, and a nice upgrade.
The one thing that I miss, however, is being able to tell at a glance which emails are conditional, and which are sent with every submission. Could this be added back in?
Thank you for continuing to make Jotform an awesome forms product!

Hey guys, this is my first blog.. And everybody can express you opinion here.
Well, some people are wondering if that script, which Freddie tells Carly that he isn't in love with her, will be used in iOMG - Part 2. Guys, for me.. That script just could be used in one situation: if Carly wants to put Sam and Freddie together. There isn't another way. Cause if Carly is jealous about Sam and Freddie.. The script would be like this:
Carly: Are you really in love?
Freddie: (beaten) Yes.
Carly: YAY! *grabbes Freddie and kiss him*
But it's not like that. In the real script, Carly is worried about if Freddie is still 'in love' with her. Maybe cause she wants Sam happy, so she doesn't want Freddie in love with her, cause this would break Sam's heart. However, Freddie tells Carly that he is NOT in love with her, but someone else.. (hopefully Sam) So, I think this script would be used JUST in that occasion.
Why Carly asked Freddie if he's in love? I really don't know.. Maybe Carly used the Mood Face on him.. We have to wait. We don't even know if that script will be in iOMG - Part 2. But I have a prediction ;) *SEDDIE FTW*
What do you guys think?? Tell me your toughts. And I'm sorry if this blog was confusing.. My english sucks xD

While cursing on the wiki is not allowed, we aren't that sure how to solve it on the chat. While some people find it exaggerated to not allow it there, others want it, and so we thought we'd let you decide with a vote. There we have it. Even if it gets allowed, you are not allowed to use it in every other post but only every now and then. Also, it is going to be forbidden to use it to insult a fellow user.

Non-Waterproof LED Strip available in White (6000k) and Warm White (3500k) and RGB (Colour Changeable) Light Strip.
The White and Warm White can be dimmed by using either the Remote Control Dimmer or Electronic Dimmers.

Dimmers for LED Strip
We stock 2 Dimmers for controlling the brightness of the LED Strip; one is a Rotary type dimmer, and the other a push button remote control dimmer.
Power Supplies
12vdc Switchmode Power Supplies, from 1A to 12.5A.
LED Light strip is ideal for illuminating inside cupboards, and cabinets. It is regularly used for creating a halo or wash of light above picture rails, coving, and cornicing. You may have seen it in friends homes or even in bars, restaurants and clubs, the effect it produces can be stunning. Other lighting can be switched off allowing the light from the LED Strip to create a relaxing atmosphere.
We stock the Non-Splashproof version in 2 variants, single colours and RGB or Colour Changing.
The same high quality Epistar Triple LED Chips are used as with our Splashproof version.
The Non-Splashproof LED Strip is much easier to cut and join since there is no resin or silicone to remove to get access to the solder pads. The solder pads are ready to be soldered.
To get around corners such as under kitchen cabinets or plinths the LED Strip can be cut to the nearest 100mm usually just before the corner begins. Wires can be soldered from where the first length of LED Strip ends to take the power around the corner to the next length of Strip. The wires should be no longer than 2 to 3 inches otherwise they will hang down and look unsightly.
