Taylor Momsen thinks girls have bad sexual experiences if they don't masturbate regularly. The 17-year-old singer-and-actress believes women should explore their own bodies and desires before sleeping with men or they will end up regretting their liaisons.
She said in an interview with The Guardian newspaper: "I'm a promoter of masturbation. Don't sleep around – learn yourself first.
"Guys do, but girls don't. And that's why girls have so many bad experiences. But you can know your body, know yourself, know what feels good.
"You don't have to give yourself away to have sexual relevance. Because I don't think sex is something people should be afraid of. It's part of human nature, so I don't think it should be shameful – particularly for girls and young girls."
Outspoken Taylor has caused controversy with her opinions in the past, including her insistence that she doesn't want to be a role model for young women.
The Pretty Reckless singer said: "I smoke, so what? Why do people give a s**t what a 16-year-old girl who they've never met does? It's not like I'm sitting there going, 'Kids, you should go buy a pack of cigarettes.'
"When I walk outside with a cigarette and someone takes a picture of it and puts it on the internet, it's not my problem. I'm just living my life and I'm not gonna live my life for other people.
"I don't read that c**p that describes me as having an attitude, but I don't know why that's a bad thing. I didn't get into this to be a role model for seven-year-olds. I have no interest in doing that."

Batelco Announces Further Reductions
A week after announcing significant reductions on INET charges, Batelco's Chairman, Ali Bin Khalifa Al Khalifa, Minister of Transportation and Chairman of Batelco announced on Sunday that a new tariff structure for Integrated Messaging Services (IMS) will be introduced on Monday.
"Batelco has developed its IMS service further to cater not only to business customers, but for home subscribers users as well," he was quoted as saying in a company press release.
"This move comes in line with Batelco's overall strategy to offer its customers the most advanced telecommunication solutions at the most competitive price. Our aim is to keep Bahrain abreast of the latest world developments in communications," he added. "This is vital to maintain its leading position at the forefront of telecommunication technology," he concluded.
"IMS makes communicating with businesses and friends faster, more secure and more reliable. Through your PC you can send and receive messages to fax and telex machines, with email to pagers and mobile phones following in the next release. A typical application of the IMS would be sending a fax to an e-mail address," the press release noted.
According to the press release, as per the new tariff structure, access charges will become optional allowing customers to use their normal dial-up or leased line connection to access IMS. Setup charges will now be replaced with a once off "User License Registration" fee and the "System Based Service" charges will be replaced with an "Application Module" to give the customer complete flexibility and choice over which IMS service is used. Usage will be charged as per the normal telephone and telex charges for personal and business customers."
Batelco is a public shareholding company of which the government of Bahrain owns 39 percent of Batelco's shares, British Cable & Wireless holds a strategic 20 percent share, while the rest of the Bahraini telcos shares are available on the Bahrain stock exhange -- (Albawaba.com)

MADEIRA BEACH — A decade after announcing plans for a five-story parking garage and 40,000 square feet of restaurants and retail, John's Pass Village has been deeded over to the lender that filed for foreclosure in late 2010.
Hubbard Properties, which owned the retail complex, filed for bankruptcy protection in January 2011. The company and the seven siblings who comprise it were struggling after the tourist business weathered severe setbacks caused by the BP oil spill, bridge construction, a cold winter and the recession. It owed $22 million to Investors Warranty of America, a division of insurance giant Aegon, based in the Netherlands.
"We had worked out a plan that over time, the amount they loaned us would have been paid back. But they were looking at interest, penalties, attorneys' fees and that added another $8 million,'' said Patricia Hubbard, chief executive officer. "There was no plan we could put together that would work."
Even Bill Edwards, the local businessman who is investing $30 million to save BayWalk, stepped in with an offer to assume the mortgage.
"He was not willing to pay what (the lenders) were demanding, which was the 2005 value," Hubbard said. "He made them a reasonable offer and they refused. It was evident (the lender) wanted this property. They saw its value and its value coming back."
The addition to of the retail complex to the existing boardwalk was completed in 2008, just months before the recession hit. It was never fully leased and many tenants were forced to move out when their sales dropped drastically.
But the complex was buoyed by the recent openings of Hooter's and the Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. Another boost was the Pier Aquarium's decision to relocate to 13,000 square feet at John's Pass Village to open a new aquarium called Secrets of the Sea later this year.
But when the lender wouldn't negotiate with Edwards, a multimillionaire, Hubbard said she realized the long battle to hold on to the property that had been in her family for more than 40 years was over.
"We were too small against them. When we first went into bankruptcy it was like going to the emergency room. We were put on life support," she said. "It became obvious we weren't going to win this so at some point you have to call in hospice."
The Friendly Fisherman restaurant and Hubbard's Marina, which are owned by Hubbard family members, are still open and doing well, she said. But now they are simply tenants like all the other stores.
Looking back, Hubbard said the company felt it had to expand because it was being taxed on vacant land at a rate of the highest and best use.
"We couldn't afford to go as status quo. We had to do something so we decided to maximize the property," she said. "It's really easy now to say we shouldn't have built so much. If I knew there was going to be a worldwide recession, yes, I would have done things differently. But at the time we started construction that wasn't in the cards."
There is good news, however, for Secrets of the Sea. It has been challenged to find lending for the $5 million interior construction of the planned facility. Investor Warranty of America has said it will guarantee a loan for a little over $2 million, said the aquarium's director, Howard Rutherford.
"IWA is in full support of the aquarium moving to John's Pass Village," he said. "And we have a little over $2 million in pledges to date. We are looking at a fall or winter opening."
Hubbard, who helped bring the aquarium there, is pleased.
"When the aquarium gets open, John's Pass Village will be elevated to a new level," she said. "My son told me even though we don't own it anymore, he said, 'Mom, every time you come over the bridge and look at that property, you will know you did that.' ''

You can take simple measures to minimize your child's risk of lead exposure. For example:
Check your house. Homes built before 1978 are most likely to contain lead. Professional cleaning, proper paint stabilization techniques and repairs done by a certified contractor can reduce lead exposure.
Be sure to protect your family and belongings while lead issues are being addressed. Before you buy a home, have it inspected for lead. Before you sign a lease, ask the landlord about lead.
Keep children out of potentially contaminated areas. Don't allow your child near old windows, old porches, bare soil, dirt next to an old home, or areas with chipping or peeling paint as well as old window putty that is flaking or chipping.
If possible, lay sod on areas of bare soil or cover bare spots with grass seed, mulch or wood chips. If your home contains chipping or peeling paint, clean up chips immediately and cover peeling patches with duct tape or contact paper until the paint can be removed.
Filter water. Ion exchange filters, reverse osmosis filters and distillation can effectively remove lead from water. If you don't use a filter and live in an older home, run cold tap water for 15 to 30 seconds before using it.
Use cold tap water for cooking, drinking or making baby formula. Hot water absorbs lead more quickly than does cold water.
Avoid certain children's products and toys. Avoid buying nonbrand toys, old toys, and toys from discount shops or private vendors — unless you can be sure that the toys have been produced without lead or other harmful substances.
Don't give costume jewelry to young children. Regularly check lead recall lists, and keep in mind that commercial lead test kits may not be reliable.
Take precautions around artificial athletic fields. Don't allow your child to eat on an artificial field, and keep drinking containers — when not in use — in a bag or covered container. After leaving the field, have your child remove his or her clothes and turn them inside out to avoid tracking contaminated dust from the play area.
If clothing can't be removed, have your child sit on a towel or blanket in your vehicle. Wash contaminated clothing, towels and blankets separately. Have your child bathe with soap and water after playing on the field.
Keep shoes worn on the field outside of your home. Ideally, remove all shoes when you enter the house and wear no shoes inside or use house slippers indoors.
Take precautions after working with lead. After working with lead, change your clothes and shoes and take a shower. Keep contaminated clothing in the work area or wash your work clothing — separately — as soon as possible.
Also, keep materials used for hobbies that may involve lead, such as ceramics making, away from children and areas where they spend time.
If you think your child has been exposed to lead, ask your child's doctor about a blood test to check for lead.

DPR contains an archive of reviews on the leading diet drops, pills, patches and spays in the UK
(PRWEB UK) 12 October 2012
"Diet pills" is a loose term that refers to the many forms of weight loss products which are taken into the body. These products come in many forms such as pills, drops, patches and sprays. Diet pills, such as Proactol, aim to reduce or control weight by altering one of the fundamental processes of the human body, weight regulation, by either altering appetite, metabolism, or absorption of calories.
Diet Pills are not a substitute for dieting and physical exercise, however, in many cases users experience increased results when they take the correct dieting supplements in conjunction with a balanced diet and regular exercise.
DPR contains an archive of reviews on the leading diet drops, pills, patches and spays in the UK. You can view DPR's Capsiplex reviews page for an example of the new video reviews which have now been introduced. The reviews on DPR rate dieting products on 10 different factors including speed of results, safety, appetite suppression and value for money. DPR differs from other diet pill review sites as it does not earn affiliate commission from the products it recommends - thus ensuring that the reviews are accurate and unbiased. DPR instead earns its revenue from advertising and donations.
DietPill-Reviews.co.uk is the leading UK-based diet pill reviews website.
The team at DietPill-Reviews.co.uk pride themselves on providing impartial and comprehensive reviews of the leading Diet Pills and Diet Drops on the market. DPR has plans to introduce a forum in the new year to allow its growing user base to provide feedback on the site and discuss the results they have achieved from the various weight loss aids available on the market. The addition of a forum will also allow users to provide help and support for other members, whilst they work on achieving their weight loss goals.

Product Highlights
The Manfrotto Blackmagic Cinema Shoulder Rig Bundle from B&H Photo combines several Manfrotto SYMPLA components into a highly adjustable Blackmagic shoulder rig, and also includes a Manfrotto RC Clamp LANC Remote Control.
The rig's camera plate, called a Variable Plate, takes on a camera by quick-release functionality and features three different axes that the camera can be adjusted along -- longitudinal, lateral and vertical. You can slide the camera up and down the rods, offset the camera from the plate's center, and align the plate higher and lower. In all three instances, a separate ratchet lever tightens to lock the camera in position. The flexibility of three independent axes allows the camera to be set up for different types of shots and allows the viewfinder to be positioned right in front of your eye. The Plate also has Easy-Link fittings on its sides for attaching Magic Arms, light modifiers, lighting units and external monitors.
Swivel-joint Adjustable Handles at the front of the rig can be set in pretty much any position -- vertical, horizontal, upside down, and anywhere in between. They can be set closer together, wider apart, and rotated 360°, allowing comfort and precision. Once you find the right position, just lock it in place -- each handle has its own locking dial (and each handle can be positioned independently). The handles additionally play a part in incorporating optional remote controls to your rig.
The Manfrotto RC Clamp LANC Remote Control can be easily clamped onto the top parts of the Adjustable Handles using a quick-lock fastening clamp. It can also be attached to a pan bar. With efficient quick lock and speed controls, the unit enables quick camera set up. A max-speed zoom potentiometer allows you to adjust the zoom speed of the camera.
In addition to wide-rotation (±50°) Zoom/Focus knob, it also has a LED indicator displaying camera recording, zoom and focus settings. The remote control has an anti-scratch and dirt-repellent keypad.

Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is an immediate DNA damage-dependent posttranslational modification of histones and other nuclear proteins that contributes to the survival of injured proliferating cells. Additionally we are shipping PARP14 Antibodies (13) and many more products for this protein.
The PARP14-JNK1-PKM2 regulatory axis is an important determinant for the Warburg effect in tumour cells and provides a mechanistic link between apoptosis and metabolism.
PARP14 interacts with the DNA replication machinery component PCNA (show PCNA ELISA Kits) and promotes replication of DNA lesions and common fragile sites.
The present study further suggests that the combined targeted inhibition of STAT1 (show STAT1 ELISA Kits), ARTD8, ARTD9 and/or DTX3L (show DTX3L ELISA Kits) could increase the efficacy of chemotherapy or radiation treatment in prostate and other high-risk tumor types with an increased STAT1 (show STAT1 ELISA Kits) signaling.
PARP14 has a significant role in the development of allergic inflammation, and targeting PARP14, or even PARP (show COL11A2 ELISA Kits) activity in general, might be an effective therapy for allergic diseases including eosinophilic esophagitis.
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase family member 14 (PARP14) is a novel effector of the JNK2 (show MAPK9 ELISA Kits)-dependent pro-survival signal in multiple myeloma.
loss of PARP14 protein is a feature of gastric and colorectal cancers with high microsatellite instability and these alterations might contribute to development of cancers with high microsatellite instability by deregulating PARP (show COL11A2 ELISA Kits)-mediated signaling
BAL macro domains repress transcription when tethered to a promoter; BAL2 and BAL3, but not BAL1, exhibit PARP (show COL11A2 ELISA Kits) activity
PARP enzymatic activity is associated with CoaSt6, and this function of CoaSt6 can append ADP-ribose to itself and p100
PARP14 has an intrinsic role in Th2 cytokine control to limit the severity of allergic skin disease.
these studies demonstrate that PARP-14 regulates multiple cytokine responses during inflammatory immunity.
study provides a novel mechanism for the posttranscriptional regulation of TF expression, indicating that this is selectively regulated by PARP-14.
PARP-14 is an important factor for T helper cell differentiation and it binds to specific DNA sequences to mediate its function.
findings show that PARP14 influences the class distribution, affinity repertoire, and recall capacity of Ab responses in mice
PARP-14-deficient animals show reduced lung pathology.
Data suggest that the PARP14-dependent capacity to increase cellular metabolic rates may be an important determinant of lymphoma pathobiology.
in the presence of IL-4 (show IL4 ELISA Kits) the catalytic activity of PARP-14 facilitates Stat6 (show STAT6 ELISA Kits) binding to the promoter, and release of HDACs so as to activate transcription.
Stat6 (show STAT6 ELISA Kits) binds to collaborator of Stat6 (CoaSt6), a protein that lacks conventional coactivator motifs but contains three iterations of a domain found in the variant histone macroH2A (show H2AFY ELISA Kits).
Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is an immediate DNA damage-dependent posttranslational modification of histones and other nuclear proteins that contributes to the survival of injured proliferating cells. PARP14 belongs to the superfamily of enzymes that perform this modification (Ame et al., 2004

Red Sox Director of Player Development Mike Hazen and Lowell Owner Drew Weber made the announcement.
"We are thrilled to continue our relationship with the Lowell Spinners for another two seasons," said Hazen. "Many of our young players have their first experiences in professional baseball in Lowell, and we believe that the Spinners organization, led by owner Drew Weber and vice president/general manager Tim Bawmann, creates the ideal environment for them to thrive. We look forward to working with the Lowell Spinners for many years to come."
The Red Sox originally entered into an agreement with the Spinners when the franchise moved from Elmira, New York to Lowell prior to the 1996 season. The PDC was last extended with a two-year extension through 2010 in June 2008.
In 1998, the team moved to the new Edward LeLacheur Park, where the Spinners have had 381 consecutive standing room only sellouts, a streak dating back to August 2, 1999.
Lowell is one of Boston's six minor league affiliates, joining Triple-A Pawtucket (International League), Double-A Portland (Eastern League), Single-A Salem (Carolina League), Single-A Greenville (South Atlantic League), and Rookie Gulf Coast Red Sox (Gulf Coast League).
Red Sox first baseman Kevin Youkilis was presented with the Dick Berardino Lowell Spinners Alumni Award tonight at the Lowell Memorial Auditorium. The award is given annually to a Lowell Spinners alumnus who has displayed tremendous coachability, dedication, a passionate work ethic, determination and the heart to make it to the Major League level. Youkilis began his professional career in Lowell in 2001, reaching base in 57 of his 59 appearances (.317, 58-for-183, 70 walks) and leading the league in runs scored (52) and walks.

Apple pie in a glass…count me in! OK so maybe it's not exactly apple pie in a glass, but it's a darn delicious smoothie that's packed with protein and will keep you full all morning.
One quick tip, since apples and older blenders aren't really friends, microwave the apple for 2 minutes first to soften it up. This will help everything come together so the smoothie has the right texture and isn't gritty or chunky. Worried about it being cold? Just throw in a couple of ice cubes.

I knew I would adore Kimberly and Kevin when they chose Monticello's as their meeting place to talk over the details of their special day.
The two met at school, and through Kevin's persistence, they ended up going on a date. She thought it went terrible, and he thought it went great… but in the end, regardless of how that first date went, Kimberly was won over by Kevin's charm.
She smiles with her eyes when you mention him, and the entire morning, before she had seen her handsome groom, she was brimming with excitement. She was the perfect bride. Beaming with beauty, grace, and anticipation, you can see how in love she is with him. She is relaxed, but excited, a perfect mix for the perfect day.
He is proud. You can tell that he is full of joy, and he has been anticipating this very day for quite some time. He is confident in his decision to marry this beautiful girl, and ready to start the next chapter of their lives together. He too, is calm, but excited. He can't help but smile anytime he hears her name, and he is anxiosuly awaiting the moment he first sees her walking down that isle, straight to him.
Kimberly + Kevin, thank you so much for choosing me to document your most special day. I hope that these photos serve as memories for years and years to come, I feel blessed to have been there for you both. Enjoy.

Neatly Done
Beginning next week, the
Kettle Falls Scimitar will be pub
lished in the columns of the
W. H. Brooks, the founfler and
editor of the Scimitar, hail mov
ed his printing plant from Ket
tle Falls to Spokane, where he
will operate a job printing shop
at 1806 North Monroe. He has
turned his subscription list, ad
vertising patronage and job work
over to the Examiner.
The Kettle Falls managers of
the new Scimitar will be N. B.
Wheeler and J. M. Williams. Mr.
Wheeler has lived in Kettle Falls
22 years, and for years has been
the correspondent for the Review
and P.-I. Mr. Williams is cash
ier of the Kettle Falls branch of
theßankofColville. Both gentle
men have the interests of Kettle
Falls and the Columbia valley at
heart, and will endeaver to con
tinue the Scimitar for the bene
fit of that section. They will
have complete charge of the
Kettle Falls department, and will
receive advertising and job work
and make collections for their
All the Scimitar correspondents
will be retained. From one to
two pages of the Examiner will
be devoted to this department.
The Scimitar subscribers will
thus not only receive their own
news as usual, but in addition,
without extra cost, will receive
all the Examiner news, the of
icial county news and thetofficial
county seat news.
This combination of two news
papers, and the combination of
two subscription lists, will place
the Exaftiiner in the lead among
newspapers in northeast Wash
ington, and give an immense ad
vantage to advertisers, covering
as it does two distinct sections
of country. It will give the reg
ular Examiner readers a greater
field of reading, and will furnish
the Columbia valley section a
much greater field of publicity.
In addition to this, Meyers
Falls is to have a department of
its own, conducted by C. 0. San
ford of that place. He will be
authorized to handle advertising,
subscription and job work for
his department, and to collect
for the same.
Another new feature of the
Examiner will be a reduction in
the subscription price when paid
in advance. The cash-in-advance
price will be $1.00 a year. When
not paid in advance, the regular
price will be $1.50 a year. With
the increased subscription list,
it is the intention to gradually
place all subscriptions upon a
cash-in-advance basis, and those
who do not care to pay in ad
vance may discontinue the paper.
No more "booze" is to be al
lowed to white men on Indian
reservations while the "luxury"
is denied the Indian, the chief of
the Indian bureau has declared.
The white man on an Indian res
ervation will be denied whiskey
or other alcoholic beverage either
for refreshment or to cure his
ills or as a precaution against
ailments, even on a physician's
prescription, as long as the ban
is on the Indian. A recent cir
cular issued by the Indian bu
reau at Washington, I). C, ad
dressed to superintendents of In
dian schools and agencies, directs
observance of the law in strict
conformity with its letter. It
also calls attention to irregular
ities in observance of the law
that have come to the attention
of the bureau.
President Taft has issued his
Thanksgiving proclamation.
Among the things which many
people are thankful for, but
which the president does not list,
is that election is over.
Although the Spokesman-Re
view as usual lost the election of
every one of its leading candi
dates, there may be hope in 4, 8
or 16 years for it to pick a winner.
Anyway, President Taft will
have the extreme pleasure of
sitting back in his chair and
watching the things which Teddy
doesn't do as president.
The Woman—My husband is
forty|today. You'd never believe
that there is actually ten years
difference in our ages.
The Man—why, no indeed. I'm
sure you look every bit as young
as he does.
LaFollette's Magazine: What
has become of the progressive
movement—not that so designat
ed by the Rossevelt convention,
but the fight for real democracy
of government? The most search
ing analysis of the so-called Pro
gressive party fails to discover it
as the basis of that organization.
A party called into being at the
bequest of one man, and for his
personal aggrandizement; a party
that has shed any principles it
may have had as a man sheds his
winter coat; a party that in lieu
of those principles for which the
real progressives of the nation
still are fighting substitutes the
personal program of an individ
ual; a party that is fish in one
state and fowl in. another, and in
all states anything to win; a party
whose leader, whose platform,
whose whole program has spent
and is spending a gigantic sum
supplied from the coffers of cer
tain interests that he overlooked
while president, a leader who,
with this money still jingling in
his pocket, appeals for votes as
the enemy of the corporations
and the friend of the farmer.
This party may be the hairyneck
and hands of Esau, but its voice
is the voice of Jacob the sup
Granted that, what the so-call
ed Progressive leaders say about
the Chicago convention be true,
and that Taft delegates were
stolen, will not the people re
member that a host of bogus
Roosevelt contests were institut
ed? Will they have reason to
doubt that had these contests
succeeded Theodore Roosevelt
would have accepted a nomina
tion made possible through them?
And should not he who appeals
to the court of the people, charg
ing another man with being the
holder of stolen goods, come with
clean hands?
So long as the new party con
tinues to be a party of protest
merely against another machine,
so long as its members surrender
their will to the personal direct
ion of one man, just so long will
it fail to become a real voice of
the people. And so long as it
seeks to belittle the striving after
the better things in government
by men not of the republican
tariff household of faith, just
so long will it fail to achieve any
thing save the separation of the
progressive forces into hostile
camps, and thereby aid in the
perpetuation of legalized robbery
and wrong.
President-elect Wilson pur
poses to keep the door to his pri
vate office in the White House
always open to the public, he an
nounced this week.
Governor Wilson said he had
decided to maintain, so far as
possible, the "open door" policy
which he had inaugurated at
Trenton. During his term as
governor he has insisted that the
door to bis private office never be
closed while he is in it.
In his campaign for the presi
dency he declared that he had
always felt that if the door to his
office were to be closed his con
nection with the people of New
Jersey would be severed. The
governor was standing in the
same doorway in the statehouse
in Trenton when interviewed.
"Are you going to keep the
open door at Washington, too?"
he was asked.
"I hope so," he replied.
"I don't know what the ar
rangements are in the White
House, but I intend to have the
door open as much as possible."
His idea is that the executive
of a state or a nation should "have
no locked door" conferences, or
transact any business in his pri
vate office that the public could
not actually see if it cared to.
"When I first took office as
governor," he said, "I was sur
prised at the number of people
who wanted to talk to me behind
the back of their hands and in

3, 1917. It was estimated that fully two hundred and fifty of the old trail men were in attendance. The meeting place was in the ballroom of the Gunter Hotel. Addresses of welcome were delivered by Hon. Dave Woodward as representative of Mayor Sam C. Bell, by Hon. J. H. Kirkpatrick, representing the Chamber of Commerce ; Col. Ike T. Pryor, President of the American Live Stock Association, and Vice President George W. Saunders of the Old Trail Drivers' Association, who responded on behalf of the Association. Following is Secretary Lawhon's report as adopted at this meeting :
HON. JOHN R. BLOCKER, President, Old Time Trail Drivers' Association.
SIR —I have the honor to herewith submit to you, and through you to the members of this Association, my annual report as Secretary for the years 1916-17.
Assembled as we are in our second annual reunion, I am proud to be able to congratulate the Association upon its continued growth in membership, and upon the loyalty and zealous interest which has been manifested by the membership at large. This is an incentive and an encouragement to further effort on our part, individually and collectively. Therefore, judging the future by the past, I believe I am not indulging in an unwarranted assumption when I say the Old Time Trail Drivers' Association is destined to take its place as one of the permanent and popular associations of our country.
Within a few days after adjournment of our reunion at Houston last year, your Secretary addressed a letter to each of those members who were not in attendance on the Houston reunion, and enclosed a badge and the Association button with concise mention of the meeting. With this effort I am persuaded that the members at large have received their badges and buttons to be worn in the lapels of their coats. There are, however, some exceptions to this assertion. A few of the letters so

Myfitnesspal and Tea
This is for anyone using the website or app known as MyFitnessPal. So we can drink tea, lose weight and do it together :D (Even if you don't use it and want to post your wieght/fitness info with us)
My username is Aedon2 feel free to friend me :D
I think now all my profile pics from everything match up except maybe the google and facebook stuff. so steepster, myfitnesspal, runtastic and fitbit all have the same photo. So if you can't find me, look for the pic :D
I've sent you a request! You've also encouraged me to start using the app properly again.
What do you do about adding teas to your diary? I'm never quite sure as the ones I drink are hardly ever in the system, and it's a lot of effort to create 4 or 5 new entries in a day for something with little calories or fat.
As of a couple of days ago, I now have a grand total of 1 David's Tea, but at least it might be helpful for that one. I basically do that, too. It would be so helpful if they did that! And it might be worthwhile for them, too – surely it's got to have some positive affect on sales/advising? Maybe?
I think teavana also has some of theirs listed. Starbucks definitely has the tazo stuff listed. Also some Stash teas as well.
I've just been through them and it looks like there's actually a lot more than I thought! I'm finding it a lot easier.
Interesting. I tracked things pretty carefully on myfitnesspal about 2 years ago, and I just never put the tea on. I never even thought to look for it. I just figured most of the tea would have minimal calories as long as it was unsweetened and I wasn't adding stuff to the tea. Maybe I wasn't tracking as carefully as I could, but since I used it when I first stopped drinking soda, any type of brewed tea was a big improvement for me.
I was thinking along those lines, but now my tea drinking has grown exponentially, I feel like I should log it more carefully.
Even if it doesn't count caloriewise, since my diary is public I like to show people what I'm drinking :D
Ooh I'd like to do that! How do you make it public?
I have been fairly active. A little disappointed because I haven't been working out in awhile so I went from 130lbs to 144… BAD ME!!! oh well once the weather is nicer I know I will lose it. I also use Under Armour Record and I am considering a Garmin fitness device as the Garmin community is more active than say Fitbit…
Helena, the Garmin network is great. I have the VivoActive and love it for not needing a phone to track runs, bike rides, lap swimming, hikes, daily steps and daily sleep. It's also cool to be able to discreetly screen texts or phone calls (or other notifications) with your phone on silent if you set it up that way.
I was looking at Vivoactive actually for Mom. Oh all right… me too. Smartwatches are awesome for checking texts, emails and stuff. I love my Moto 360 for that. I also use Under Armour Record to keep up with my friends and it connects to Garmin and MyFitnessPal as well. I may be trapped in a web of connection….
I decided I will go with the original Vivoactive. I'm going to pick it up after work. If you want to add me on Garmin Connect it's Aedon2hg
request sent. (Seth) Hopefully I'll be able to log something other than walking on there in the near future!
Haha, you're not kidding about the web of connection. Pretty soon we'll all have microchips in us that log all of that stuff along with automatically recording what tea we drank and logging it here!!!
You say that like it's a bad thing… By the way the Vivoactive HR comes out in April. It has a better design and as the name indicates a built in heartrate monitor. I'm going to wait for it. It has a nice snazzy new look too.
I admit, 1984 really made an impression on me! And apparently Orwell was quite the tea drinker :-)
Good choice to wait for it. I'm gonna go check it out and see if DC Rainmaker has a review on it yet. Let me know how you like it once you get it. And Garmin really pushes you to integrate with MFP, too. Sadly, I'm injured all over the place right now, so I can only use mine as a watch and step/sleep tracker.
am I allowed to make a proud post?
lost over two stone in one year & have gone from 25% body fat to 16% body fat, just by a change in diet.
and add me, rasseru on there. can never have too many buddies. I havent used it as much but will when the new sport center gets built near me :)
Of course you can post about your weight status or workouts or whatever!! It's all to help keep us all healthy and enjoy tea while we're at it.

Can Fedora Roll?
I'm an Arch user...well, soon to change. Arch changed on me and I'm feeling "sold"...so, (again) an other distro is in order.
I used to have Fedora, but as I looked, and still do, for a rolling distro, hat was ended.
Now, in the mean time, can I use Fedora as a rolling release? Is version upgrade feasable without having to reinstall and (the real problem) reconfigure (for ages on end)?
Thanks for some insight.
(unless - but I dont have that much luck - it is an april fool joke)
(okay - it's possibly an april fools joke, but I have to see the site back up b4 I believe it)
You sound like you need Slackware. The experience is very similar to Arch.
Development is all done in a trunk called "-current" and you can install from or upgrade to -current whenever you like. When Slackware has a new release -current is frozen and snapshotted.
I won't comment on Fedora because I don't have anything nice to say about it.
Tnx zordrak,
If the xp is about the same, and the project does not "melt" into some other goo, that may be what I need.
Fedora comes out every 6 months. Isn't that up-to-date enough for you? Unlike some distros, you won't need a re-install: updating works fine.
No no, that's not the point at all...the six months (and the full re-install eventually) are what drove me away from Fedora :) way back when, sad though. I liked it, but a reinstall and reconfig took too much time out of running projects.
But...it seems (seems, dunnow yet) that I fell victim to the april fool's prank the community "elders" played on us...
Look at this thread https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=116055 and judge for yourself.
That's why I love Arch...it is a rolling release, does not HAVE to be bleeding edge, but MUST be stable enough to be usable...
Fedora is not "rolling release" unless you use the "Rawhide" branch. In my experience, Rawhide is very much a "testing" branch and not recommended for everyday use like Arch.
With ya all the way snowpine...there IS the one reason I made the move to Arch. And happy for it.
I believe i've been the victim of the annual April Fool's joke the "elders" sprung on us, though. Sorry for the commotion. :)
Should I mark this as closed/solved? Can I ask a mod to remove it? Should I? Life is wonderfull...as long as there is Linux :D

Beware of their sole use policy. I booked this venue for my daughters bridal shower. I was told you had sole use. People are allowed and will walk through your event. We even had an urinating dog. The staff conducted a tour during our event. The bar staff was absent while we were upstairs having our meal, which meant that the public, who were sitting in our chairs, could have helped themselves. When I raised the issues with our event co-ordinator, Daniel Johnson, I was blamed. Instead of apologizing for the issues, he told me I should have closed and locked the doors myself. He also said my guests opened the doors and propped them open with chairs. That never happened.

Spare a thought for Mozaffar Shafeie, who has the invidious task of dubbing the foul-mouthed Jeremy Clarkson into Farsi for the Iranian edition of Top Gear.
Happily married, bright and courteous, Mozaffar has little in common with Clarkson, but somehow manages to render phrases that he employs such as "gentleman's sausage" and "pharoah's dry testicles" into his native language.
He talks about his plight tonight in The Fifth Floor on the BBC World Service. Clarkson is something of a come down for him. In his day, he dubbed Sir Sean Connery as James Bond. Mozaffar, by the way, smokes a mere 20 cigarettes a day, compared with Clarkson's 60.
Worcester's sauce
Admirable lady that she is, Clare Balding is not known for taking personal remarks on the chin and certainly not from the likes of the Marquess of Worcester.
Mandrake therefore feels like a bit of a sneak for pointing out that Harry Worcester noted, as he watched her fronting the racing coverage yesterday, that she is "either wearing a phenomenal amount of clothing or has put on a few pounds".
This resulted in almost instant condemnation for Worcester from various predictable quarters, but I rather admire his courage. Never politically correct, he told Mandrake not so long ago: "I wonder if London can maintain its character if it simply becomes a haven for rich foreigners."


text: Johannesburg - Delegates at the 10th conference of the Congress of SA Trade Unions (Cosatu) had mixed reactions to the alliance leaders at the start of the second day of proceedings on Tuesday.Some expressed support for SA Communist Party general secretary and Minister of Higher Education Blade Nzimande who, along with other ministers who spent over R1m of public funds on official cars, had earlier drawn criticism from Cosatu.Cosatu spokesperson Patrick Craven called the expenditures on luxury cars a "slap in the face of the unemployed and people living in shanty towns".Nzimande on Monday told the delegates: "I know very well that socialism will not come in a BMW. I have not forgotten that."'Wrong signal'"We agree that it was a mistake to accept the million rand car," said SA Transport and Allied Workers' Union (Satawu) delegate and SACP member Tinzi Lubabalo."It can send the wrong signal to the poor about the person who is advancing their interests."National Union of Metalworkers of SA delegate Fana Dlamini said he believed Nzimande was trying to walk a fine line between his position as leader of the SACP and as a member of the government."He's now a minister in government and some policies might contradict communism. As a minister and [general secretary of the SACP] he has to manage those contradictions," said Dlamini.Dlamini was more qualified in his support of President Jacob Zuma. On Monday, Cosatu secretary general Zwelinzima Vavi said delegates were not as enthusiastic about Zuma's speech on Monday as they were at a previous conference in 2006.Vavi, however, said he believed the delegates' enthusiasm was restored by the end of the president's speech.A different Zuma"In 2006, when he was not the state president he was a different Zuma," said Dlamini."I was expecting him to say a lot on the soldiers' wages and their working conditions."He believed Zuma's new position as president required him to be more cautious.However, Lubabalo believed delegates were still as excited about Zuma as they were in 2006."It was the same, except that people didn't stand on the tables," he said."He gave a well-prepared speech. It covered the values of the workers."Zuma 'surprised people'National Health, Education and Allied Workers' Union delegate Christine Mokonyane said she believed Zuma acted correctly in reaching out to political organisations beyond the left."The way he appointed people, he looked at the nation... He surprised people."I think if they can work together they can accomplish something," said Mokonyane.

If there is a best part about playing five pre-season games in five nights, its that there is little time to dwell on the day before.
So just 24 hours after a flat effort and a 5-0 loss to the Ottawa Senators, the two teams will be back in action at the Air Canada Centre Wednesday night.
In bodies anyway, the Leafs team iced by coach Ron Wilson will have little resemblance to the one that was overmatched by a Sens team missing most of its stars on Tuesday night. Only tough guy Jay Rosehill and rookie winger Jerry DAmigo will be playing in back-to-back games for Toronto.
Notable, however, is the first action this fall of the Leafs top line - centre Tyler Bozak and wingers Phil Kessel and Nikolai Kulemin.
Wilson said Wednesday that he continues to have high hopes for Bozak, especially if he lasts a full season as Kessels centre.
If Phil can be a 40-goal scorer this year, (Bozaks) probably going to be in on three quarters of those and then a few others, so 50-60 points would be a great year, Wilson said. He might be able to produce more if he continues to improve the way we think.
Another interesting forward line Wednesday will see Mikhail Grabovski between DAmigo and Clarke MacArthur, the off-season acquisition Wilson would love to see score 20 goals.
Defenceman Mike Komisarek, who hasnt played since injuring his shoulder in February returns to game action as does Francois Beauchemin.
Both J-S Giguere and Jonas Gustavsson - the projected top two goaltenders will have the night off giving James Reimer and Ben Scrivens a chance to show their stuff.
As for forward combinations, Wilson plans to continue to mix and match depending on who shows chemistry. He said he would like to keep Bozak and Kessel together but wouldnt rule out re-uniting Grabovski with Kulemin at some point.
Grabovski has been as good an any forward weve had in training camp to this point, Wilson said at his pre-game press conference. I have to make sure hes out there with people who produce points.
For the Senators, Brian Elliott is expected to play the entire game in net. Minor league prospect Robin Lehner recorded the shut out on Tuesday stopping 24 shots.
If he keeps playing the way he did (Tuesday) night, it would be pretty hard to not have him here, coach Cory Clouston told the Ottawa Sun Wednesday morning.

Egypt privatizes 13 companies in 2001
Some 13 Egyptian companies were privatized over the course of 2001 bringing privatization proceeds to 1.1 billion Egyptian pounds ($239 million) for the year, reported Al-Wafd.
Out of the 13 firms four were to sold to anchor investors and two were bought out by the Employee Shareholders Association (ESA). Two of the companies were liquidated, the assets of three companies were sold off and two companies were privatized under the lease financing system.
Egypt's National Company for Construction and Development (NCCD) has lined up 20 of its affiliated firms for privatization in 2002. The companies chosen realized revenues of 3.4 billion Egyptian Pounds ($734 million) with equity of EP 317.7 pounds in 2001. — (menareport.com)

My 15 Year Medication Tapering Journey I am not out of the woods… yet. I am down to 2.6301 milligrams from 100 milligrams of Haloperidol. And I am not sure what will happen each time I taper. I am a guinea pig of the Medical system; an experiment. And no expert knows how to successfully

THIS month Joanne Dreeben has been taking baby squirrels to work. Once there, they reside on top of her computer, which provides warmth and a convenient location for feeding them every three hours.
For some this might seem unusual at the workplace. But for Ms. Dreeben, a longtime wildlife rehabilitator who makes her living as an office manager for an auto parts supply wholesaler, it's the norm.
It has been more than 22 years since, as a docent at the Bronx Zoo, she responded to a notice seeking volunteers to serve as rehabilitators. Since then, says Ms. Dreeben, who lives in northwest Yonkers, she has come to the rescue of thousands of distressed birds and animals.
''I feel in this life you have to give back,'' she said. ''There are so many organizations dedicated to helping people or children. Animals are voiceless; at least they don't speak in languages we can understand.
''We've created most of the problems they come into. We cut down trees. We pave over their habitat. We dump oil in the water. All these things put wildlife in peril.''Continue reading the main story
Ms. Dreeben is one of a handful of volunteers in Westchester County to whom residents can turn when they find a vole wounded by a cat, for instance, or a nest of abandoned birds. The helpless patients reflect the variety of the region's wildlife: opossums and raccoons; waterfowl and cottontail rabbits.
Volunteers -- who are not allowed to charge for services, but can accept donations -- have proved ''invaluable in caring for injured, sick or orphaned animals,'' said Maureen Wren, a spokeswoman for the state Department of Environmental Conservation, which licenses wildlife rehabilitators.
The state has 851 people listed as having licenses, and about 400 people listed serving as assistants to them.
But while about two dozen rehabilitators are listed as working in the county, Ms. Dreeben and other volunteers say the actual number is far smaller.
Finding them is not always easy, either. The conservation department can provide referrals, but Internet listings by various groups -- including the New York State Wildlife Rehabilitation Council Inc. -- are incomplete or lacking in Westchester resources. Police stations, local nature centers and veterinarians also frequently have names of volunteers.
One helpful resource is a hotline set up recently by Jill Doornick, a rehabilitator who is phasing out her operations after a decade of work in Rye. The hotline, reachable at (914)967-0511, provides referrals as well as detailed directions on what to do if you find wildlife in distress.
Ms. Dreeben is one whose services the hotline recommends. But judging from her schedule, she is not really in need of any more referrals. As it is, she says, her evenings out are infrequent, and vacations unheard of.
''How often do we get through dinner without the phone ringing?'' Ms. Dreeben asked her 12-year-old granddaughter, Toni Gallagher.
''Once,'' Toni said.
''You give them advice or tell them to bring it over,'' Ms. Dreeben. ''There is always something to deal with.''
Like most rehabilitators, she says she begins her day about 4:30 a.m. feeding her charges and cleaning cages.
Her methods include using tweezers to coax puppy and cat food into the mouths of young birds and syringing dog milk supplement into the mouths of newborn squirrels.
She tries to keep the scope of the rehab operations to a minimum, doing all her work inside, in one small room.
''I don't want to annoy my neighbors and I don't want them to annoy me,'' she said.
Her enthusiasm has involved her with pet-shop-type animals as well. For instance, she rescues unwanted ferrets, a rollicking roomful of which live in her converted garage.
Ms. Doornick, on her hotline tape, instructs those who call during regular business hours to contact any one of four animal hospitals that volunteer their services to help wildlife. She also provides alternatives by type of bird or animal. Song bird issue? Press 2. Squirrels and small mammals? Press 4 and on up to 8 (for a turtle or any other reptile or amphibian).
Ms. Doornick estimates that she worked on about 600 animals last year and says the hotline is her idea of a legacy. She is closing up shop -- at least at her current residence -- because town buildings officials have ordered her to get rid of her flight cages. (Asked whether the order had come in response to neighbors' complaints, the officials would not say.)
She was drawn into volunteering as a rehabilitator 10 years ago, she says, after finding a tiny pink squirrel in her neighborhood. After an unsuccessful search for help close to home, she located a woman in Connecticut who explained how to feed it puppy formula.
''I raised it until it was about 12 weeks old,'' she said.
From squirrels, she segued to mammals like raccoons and woodchucks, and to birds -- particularly time consuming, with babies needing to be fed every 20 minutes in the first weeks.
For her, cutting back means getting rid of 50 birds: pigeons; white doves; Easter ducks unwanted after becoming too big to be cuddly; a mallard with a bad foot; two handicapped Peking ducks; a goose with a broken leg; a couple of chicks and a guinea fowl.
''I have to deanimalize my beautiful sanctuary,'' she lamented.
But beyond the town's edict, there were other factors in her decision to move on: She mentioned burnout and the need to make money after years of living off her savings.
''It's like being the only doctor in a hospital,'' Ms. Doornick said. ''Every year we get more and more animals. There's more development; there are more animal getting in the way of people.'' As for Ms. Dreeben, she wouldn't even hazard a guess at the amounts of money she has spent over the years caring for the animals.
''I don't even want to think about it,'' she said. ''Sometimes I wonder if I have 'sucker' stamped on my back.''Continue reading the main story

SOLVED.Newbie wants to install ubuntu on windows xp sp3 with 256 mb ram 40gb hd
SOLVED. I am totally new to the concept of Linux. I spent the entire day reading this site, in order to post my question. Compaq presario 40 gb hd 256 mb ram, Amd 1808mhz processor, Windows XP SP3, 28 gb free space. I want to try to install unbuntu and dual boot. Is this possible with my current system? Can you use KDE with Ubuntu? Is there a better way for me to go, considering I am almost computer illiterate! Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
Should be no problem - although ideally you'd want more RAM but it'll work fine. You can use KDE with Ubuntu - once installed open package manager (called 'Synaptic') and install kubuntu-desktop.
Alternatively just install Kubuntu which is the same as Ubuntu but with KDE as default desktop environment.
Thank you Klearview for your response. The reson I was going with Ubuntu is a guide to install called "The extremely simple guide to installing Ubuntu" that I found earlier today on this site. I read it and I believe I can follow the instructions Ok. Since I am not joking about being almost computer illiterate, I would need a step by step for any installtion. Is there something like this available for Kubuntu? Thank you
As far as installing goes Ubuntu and Kubuntu are pretty much identical - the exact same install process applies to both.
You can get a CD from here:
http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download (for your machine you just need to go with default download options, just select the closest location)
But once again - you can easily use KDE on Ubuntu - once installed go to 'System' -> 'Administration' -> 'Package Manager (Synaptic)', search for 'kubuntu-desktop' and select it for installation. When installed log out and on login screen choose 'Session type' and choose 'KDE'. It will ask you if you want to make KDE you default desktop environment or just use it that time. Make a selection and log in as normal.
If you won't to add some rams for your computer, try Xubuntu. CPU is enough.
I am talking to you with : PIII 667 MHZ + 256M + Ubuntu 8.04 (blackbox + bbeys + rox-filer + firefox3 + mousepad + xterm, and some files, about occupy 1G harddisk space.)
The standard installation CD usually fails with 256 MB! This CD needs 384 MB of RAM. You'll have to use the alternate installation CD. It is text-based but otherwise more or less the same. Though the machine really should have more RAM to run Ubuntu or Kubuntu on it.
Ubuntu System Requirements
Thanks to all for your input. I downloaded Kubuntu. Immediately lost access to lan. Had to switch to dial up. I did not have a cd burner program to burn the iso image. Once I finally got that downloaded, it wouldn't write to a cd-r. Do you have to use a cd-rw? I thought either would work. Am not sure which way to go after reading comments. I am concerned about the 256 ram, that is total for the entire system. I think I want to look at some distros that run inside windows, with a somewhat familiar desktop, something that would be similar to windows until I get used to linux. It would need to have small memory requirement. Also, download file that I can do with dial up without taking all day. Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks.
Puppy, Slitaz, DSL, CDlinux
They are very small(e.g., Slitaz less than 30M), and can run without a full installation(just extract the ISO file and copy the files in the extracted ISO into hard disk then you can get a way to boot them).
For Xubuntu 8.04:
1, download that alternate cd image( xubuntu-8.04.1-alternate-i386.iso ) with a p2p download tool such as "uTorrent":
2, download hard disk installtion kernel and image file:
Note, if the the file name of downloaded "vmlinuz" be changed by download tool, please change its name back to "vmlinuz", no suffix.
Then, copy "xubuntu-8.04.1-alternate-i386.iso", "initrd.gz", "vmlinuz" into a hard disk partition, e.g. C:\ .
Then, download grub4dos (https://gna.org/projects/grub4dos/) to boot the installation.
The menu.lst of "grub4dos" for refering: (suppose your files are in C:\)
KDE requires more memory to run than GNOME, so given your current configuration I would say that you should stick to using Kubuntu rather than Ubuntu.
Thanks for all the input. I could not get Kubuntu 8.1 to work on my system. It loads ok, but when I access anything on the desktop it freezes the entire program. I allocated 10GB of disk space, and loaded to hd. It didn't help!! I ran memtest86, it ran for 4 1/2 hours, lots of errors. I finally had to just shut the system down. I think maybe it is not going to work with 256MB ram. Actually it only has 223Mb, some allocated to video, or something. If you have any other suggestion I appreciate it. I finally downloaded puppy 4.1. It took 7 hours to download with dial-up!! When I boot into Puppy, it will not run with Xorg option, had to use Xvesa. Now I can't get internet connection!!
No knowledge whatsoever about Linux. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Sorry this post is so long winded, but Iam feeling kinda desperate with all these problems. Thanks.
I ran memtest86, it ran for 4 1/2 hours, lots of errors.
If that's the case then your RAM is damaged. Nothing will work ok with that.
SOLVED.Thanks for the reply,
That is what I was thinking. The strange thing is my windows xp is running just fine. I just replaced the HD a week ago. If this keeps on, I could have bought another computer!!. I was not familiar with memtest86, so I thought it might be similar to chkdsk /r in windows, where it scans and repairs bad blocks. Thanks. Need to post solved. Cannot find option on this forum, please advise.
Repairing bad blocks on a harddisk means copying their content elsewhere and marking the bad blocks as unusable. You can't do such a thing with RAM. It either works or is broken.
A new computer would have been a good idea, and you should still consider it. You can put the HD in the new one, too.
You can edit the thread title along with your initial post to include [SOLVED].
Perhaps you should try installing Ubuntu Linux as a windows application. For more details please refer to my blogpost at buzznol.http://buzznol.blogspot.com/2008/11/...s-windows.html

The mid-1980s weren't the best of times for Haus Pelikan. The firm's product lines had grown large and unwieldy (including, oddly, cosmetics and sporting goods), and the unsuccessful takeover of Lumoprint (a German maker of photocopiers) drained the company's cash still further. While their pens were still of good quality, they were not as compelling or as distinctive as they had been in decades before. In 1982, Pelikan AG declared bankruptcy and its shares were sold to the Swiss firm Condorpart.
A generous infusion of Swiss cash enabled Pelikan in 1987 to launch the Souverän (Sovereign) series of writing instruments, capped by the M800 fountain pen. This oversize, traditionally-styled pen, only slightly smaller than the competing Montblanc 149, helped Pelikan to retain its reputation as a maker of fine pens. The M800 has since gone on to become a sort of benchmark among pen fans. Even most die-hard vintage pen collectors will make allowances for the M800, perhaps because of its traditional styling and construction, and its legendary performance.
Although the M800 was essentially an all-new product, it drew its technical and design cues from the venerable model 400 (which had itself just been reissued and could, in turn, trace its lineage back to the original model 100). The M800 is made from handworked cellulose acetate plastic (most 800s coming in the stripes made famous on the model 400). The M800 uses a smooth, faultless piston filler mechanism (that takes in many pages' worth of ink) and contains a brass sleeve to give it a bit of heft.
The earliest M800s used 14k points, but these are now of 18k with a silvery masking and hand-chasing (the points are made for Pelikan by the Bock firm). Like other contemporary Pelikans, the M800's point and feed are combined into a single unit that can be removed and exchanged by a dealer or even by a reasonably careful owner (this makes the pens much easier to clean than other piston-fillers). Beginning in 1996 with the translucent "Blue Ocean," the M800 became the basis for a number of limited editions and special editions (Pelikan carefully distinguishes between the two), perhaps the most famous being the P900 Toledo (above) with its handcrafted Spanish-style silver overlay (the Toledo motif was first used on selected model 100 pens on the 1930s).
The 800 and 400 series were eventually joined by the middle-size 600, and the smaller 300 series, which together now form the complete Souverän ('sovereign') line (around the year 2000, the M800 was finally tipped off the top of the Pelikan heap by the truly huge M1000). Also available in the 800 range is a mechanical pencil (with 0.7mm lead), a ballpoint, and a capped rollerball.
Before the German reunification in 1992, Pelikan pens were marked "Made in W. Germany," and some collectors seek out these older models (although there's little real difference that I can see between the West and non-West versions of the 800). Earlier production M800s did have monochrome (non-masked) gold points, some in 14k (rather than the now-standard 18k). The most noticeable change in trim came in the late 1990s, when the coin-like end jewel (with a cut-out pelican motif) was changed to what looks like a screened gilded pelican; although many admirers complained bitterly at the time that Pelikan was 'cheapening' the pen, I have a few pens with this new decoration, and none has shown any signs of wear. I think the new bird looks rather smart, myself, and it is more historically accurate.
There have been numerous Pelikan-issued limited editions and special editions based on the M800; also, many independent craftsmen have found the M800 to be a good platform for showing off their advanced metalworking skills. These latter pens are fairly rare and expensive, and must be considered one-offs more than limited editions.
An indispensable pen, although perhaps not yet what one might call a "collectible" (although some variants were produced only briefly and are fairly rare). Aside from the LEs and SEs, there are few variations in style (the basic black pen and the green-stripe "Stresemann" model were only recently joined by blue and green striped finishes in the standard range). Look for the very rare tortoise stripe models (these were not distributed in the US, and I've seen only one of these in the flesh).
The M800 fills, feeds, and writes flawlessly, and is easy to maintain. Replacement points are unusually widely available, and come in many different grades; some entrepreneurs have taken to custom-grinding these points to customers' specs. The Pelikan points are often praised as being "flexible," but although this may be true as far as modern pens go, I'm more inclined to call them "slightly resilient."
This pen is made of a natural resin, and there are sound reasons why people don't use this kind of material much anymore for workhorse pens. It can get nicked up, and can even shatter (although I've neither heard of nor experienced any epidemics of spontaneous cracking with Pelikans as is the case with other big black Germans). Keep it in your shirt pocket or purse when you aren't using it, and resist the temptation to employ it as a stand-in for your Leatherman tool.

"Fishing Girls in Collioure..."
Fishing girls or fishing girls - make your choice.
3 girls out there at the quay fishing is not to be seen everyday, neither in Collioure. But I like this moment from Nov. last year.
I will tomorrow go down again to this fine little village in the South of France, close to the Spanish border. Only for a week this time

Hello Jack,
I agree -- this is a delightful and unusual shot. I like its arrangement, the colors and the way, despite the evident cold, the girls look very absorbed. They appear to have been unaware of being photographed -- a real plus. Have a good week.

Bonsoir, cher Jack,
Eh ! oui, les garçons n'ont pas le monopole de la pêche, la preuve !
La pêche est un bon moyen de laisser vagabonder son esprit et de se relaxer !
La photo est bonne comme de coutume.

Nice this new upload from you, Jack. Good use of the zoom to show the three girls being more or less focused on their fishing activities. Nice subdued surroundings with the brick wall around the port. Have a good weekend.

Hello Jack,
The subdued and more uniform light, I believe, is frequently preferable to direct sunlight which creates harsh contrasts in light and shadows. I like this shot taken last November, revealing not only the activity of the young damsels, but the colors and textures of the stonework. There is obviously iron in the rocks, judging by the rust. Warm regards,

my ranch, I remained there until 1886 and started up the trail again for Presnall, Withers & Co., this time for Northern New Mexico. I left Presidio County in April and this trip was full of hardships all the way out to Roswell, New Mexico. We went by way of Alpine and Toyah and struck the Pecos River at Hash Knife Ranch, and the night we got there our herd stampeded early in the night and we did not get them checked until early morning. Again at Toyah we had a stampede that lasted all night and until sunrise the next morning, and this time we lost 22 head of steers. We went up the Pecos to Seven Rivers and on up. Striking the Pecos again, we followed it as far as Roswell, New Mexico. We had a tough time getting there, with no grass and no rain. We suffered heavy losses all the way up the Pecos, pulling and digging cattle out of bogs every day and losing some each day. We were a dilapidated looking bunch, cattle, horses and men, and when we arrived within five miles of Roswell we had a glorious rain and storm that made our trip the balance of the way very good. We left the Pecos at Roswell and went up by old Fort Sumner, crossed over to the Canadian River and by the old Bell ranch, then went on up the Goodnight Trail through the mountains and reached the market in July with 1,600 head of steers out of the 2,200 that we left Presidio County with in April. This was my last trip up the trail and I came back to Atascosa County and am still here.
My parents are Robert J. and Dorcas Ann Jennings. I was born September 30, 1881, in Guadalupe County, Texas, and when I was three years of age my parents moved to Frio County, where they resided near Pearsall until I was fifteen years old. The following three years
