De-Jargonification of Scientific Explications (AKA How to Say Stuff More Simply)
Scientific writing is notoriously full of jargon. Jargon includes technical terms that are specific to a certain discipline, or sometimes it can be everyday words that mean something different in science than they do in normal life. Jargon has its place — it can help scientists be very precise when communicating with each other. But … Continue reading
Royal Rife's Universal Microscope (and Why It Can't Exist)
In the 1930s, microscope designer Royal Rife made a splash with reports that he had designed a new microscope that could view nanoscale objects such as viruses!1 The only problem was that it didn't work. In fact, it couldn't work, based on the basic physics of light. Rife was attempting to improve upon the optical … Continue reading

SegmentNext - "Final Fantasy XV's main programmer has left Square Enix."
I hope he enjoys whatever he does next. This won't affect development of 15 as it's in full swing someone just steps up and becomes lead, it's just like any other business.
i ve lost any hope for this game ..first it takes years to complete , from exclusive compromised and went multiplatform and now key developers go away ...Square became a crappy company ... sell the rights of FF VII to Sony at least so you dont screw up a possible remake
i think he sick of SE policy, project like FF Versus 13 or 15 toke 8 years and still not released this the biggest joke i ever heard. main programmer its impotent guy, he is the key of how games program should run.
wish good luck for that person.
Kentaro Yasui was the main programmer for Kingdom Hearts/Kingdom Hearts II. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm...
That's a pretty big fish to lose Square Enix.
I pray this game comes out within 2015. It is my most anticipated next gen game.

Thanks to Trop 50 for sponsoring my writing about fabulous bloggers. This year Trop50 is granting 50 fabulous wishes. Click here to enter for a chance to win $1,000 to help grant a friend's wish!
There are many blogs I enjoy following on a regular basis. Some because they feature great reviews, some feature great giveaways, most because of the personal stories they share, and many because their blogs are well-written and enjoyable.
Why her blog is fabulous: Natural Mommie's tagline is "Turning mommies from eco-weak to eco-chic one fabulous find at a time!" I love this; it makes living green sound so classy and fun! For anyone that's attempted to "go green" in their life, Natural Mommie proves that it doesn't have to be all Tofurkey® and hemp. Natural Mommie often features reviews and giveaways of some of the most amazing, adorable, whimsical and practical things that, guess what, just happen to be eco-friendly. The first thing I noticed is the design. It's actually calming to be on her site, it is that aesthetically pleasing.
Why her blog is fabulous: Dear Crissy is another well-designed, aesthetically pleasing blog. She has so much information on her blog, but it's easy to find, well organized, and I swear I end up on her site for one reason or another at least twice per week. If blogging were real life, I would be sitting in front yard in a lawn chair with a sign that read "You're awesome!" This is why, I am guessing, she has a ginormous following. She has some great giveaways, too.
Kylee at Two Pretzels
Why her blog is fabulous: Kylee's blog is a fantastic mix of funny stories and amusing thoughts, and she provides a fun look at her journey into motherhood after years of trying to get pregnant. She does a fantastic job of not only entertaining her readers, but including them, as well. She's even featured a poll where her readers guessed her daughter's birth stats before she was born, and winner got to name a charity to which a donation was made in their name. Awesome. Her blog is like watching that favorite sitcom family and wishing you were a part of it.
Why she is fabulous: Kylee lives a blessed life in Mexico with her adorable little girl, her adorable husband, and another daughter born just yesterday! She is a fantastic woman and was once a great mentor to me "back in the day" when she was stateside. I know a couple of women who have read her blog and commented to me how they'd love to be just like her. I don't blame them. She is a truly amazing person a wonderful friend.
Adam at DaDa Rocks
Why his blog is fabulous: I won't lie. When I think of a daddy blog, I'd have assumed fumbling around a blog that included complaints about forced diaper changes and a difficult wife, accompanied by only technology and beer reviews. Adam's blog, however, has every kind of parental subject – from baby showers to movies to video games to parenting advice. I love it. I love that you don't have to be a dad to read it and as a mom, you don't feel like you've stepped into the wrong poker game.
Why he is fabulous: I was introduced to DaDa Rocks through a series of late-night tweets and friend-of-a-friend connections when he had posted one of his awesome giveaways. He's fun, he's funny, and seems like a very down-to-earth, great dad. Not to mention he's a blogging dad in what seems to be a world of blogging moms. Props!
Amy at Resourceful Mommy
Why her blog is fabulous: Amy has created a brand in Resourceful Mommy. Resourceful Mommy is just that – a spectacular resource! Useful articles, reviews and giveaways, both of the most popular and well-known brands and ones you didn't know you couldn't live without. She also hosts the best and most popular Twitter parties this side of ANYTHING! I wish I could relay to you how much I have learned from her blog, and what amazing information she provides. Think of her as the Yoda to your Luke Skywalker.
Why she is fabulous: Amy hosted one of the first Twitter parties I attended, she was one of the first blogs that inspired me to create my own, and a it's a blog that I return to on a regular basis. She is helpful, she has great advice, and I've recommended her services several times to multiple companies. She has an amazing work ethic, she's dedicated to her brand, and she's one of the truly great people in the blogiverse. She's definitely one you should be following, if you're not already.
The greatest thing you can do as a blogger, especially as one that follows other blogs, is to try to find as many new-to-you blogs as you can. If you like their content, let them know. Vote for them, rate them, write a review about them. Bloggers thrive on referrals and word-of-mouth and are able to post fantastic reviews and giveaways because of their readers! And these five bloggers are just a few on my list of really great bloggers!
Don't forget to enter the 50 Fabulous Wishes contest for a chance to win $1,000 to support a friend's wish. I was selected for this Tropicana Trop50 sponsorship by the Clever Girls Collective, which endorses Blog With Integrity, as I do. I received compensation to use and facilitate my post.

Increase your English vocabulary by learning new moon words
Bill Casselman
Engraved tarot or astrology card depicting the moon (der Mond in German)
At the Wording Desk
New Moon Words like Lunain
& Old Moon Words
like Epigee, Apogee & Syzygy
Moon Words you may not know like Lunain & Details of Monday's SUPERMOON
A writer whose name I have lost once wrote that the first poem in the first language ever spoken was "O, Moon."
Why, you may wisely ask, do the English words moon and month both stem from the same Proto-Indo-European root? The thirty-day earth month approximates the lunar cycle of waxing and waning. Throughout history, in some of the oldest calendars, these regular phases of the moon have made it a good timekeeper. Yes, it was superseded by the more accurate solar calendar. But the moon's regularity gave the Romans their words for measure and menstrual and menstruate whose root meaning is "go through the monthly moon time."
English named the moon after a month and Monday is moon-day, or, in the oldest English we know, Monandæg. French named Monday after the moon too, so French lundi is derived from later Latin Lunae dies or Lunis dies 'day of the moon'. Luna is the Latin word for moon. All the Romance languages borrowed that Latin phrase. Compare Spanish lunes and Italian lunedì. Hellenistic Greek copied Latin too and called Monday ἡμέρα σελήνης hemera selenes 'day of the moon.'
Lunar Etymology
The Latin word for moon luna is closely related to other Roman words that mean 'bright light' such as lux and lumen 'radiance or amount of light' as in the English words illuminate and luminous. Lux is cognate with the English noun light and with the Greek adjective for 'white' leukos.
Hematic Matters
Leukos gives English medical words like leucocyte 'white blood cell' and leukemia, a blood or bone cancer with abnormal increase in white blood cells from a German medical word, itself made up of leuk-, leukos Greek 'white' + -emia medical suffix meaning 'diseased condition of the blood' from haima Greek 'blood.' Compare other blood words like hemoglobin and the tricky anemia originally meaning 'lack of blood' = a Greek 'not' + -n- called "nu euphonic" or "nu movable" (a letter n inserted into a word to make it easier to pronounce) +-emia from haima Greek 'blood.' Nu is the Greek name for the letter n. Another scientific word with nu euphonic is anaerobic = a Greek 'not' + -n- nu euphonic + aer Greek 'air' + bios Greek 'life,' an adjective applied chiefly to microorganisms which can function without oxygen.
In the armory of modern kitchen utensils, a mezzaluna is a knife used for chopping herbs. It has a blade curved like a half moon (Italian mezza luna). Hachoir is its French name. It is similar to the Inuit chopping blade, the ulu.
Lunatics & Lovers
There are a number of lunar words we shall not cover here because their meanings are well known. Most know that madmen were first called lunatics because ancient physicians thought they were moon-mad, driven insane by the moon.
There is a glorious NASA photograph entitled "Earthrise seen from the lunain." Lunain was a new word coined in 1971 when humans landed on the moon. Lunain was the lunar surface, as terrain is the earthly one. I though it a lovely word for the cold, star-lit countenance of the moon. But no one else did. And so it wisped away and died, in obsolescent desuetude. O regrettable discontinuance! Poor abandoned wordlet.
I like the sound of this adjective, drawn from new Latin sublunaris 'taking place under the moon' from sub Latin 'under' + lunaris Latin adjective 'pertaining to the moon.' Although sublunary (pronounced sub-LOON-ary) began with meanings like 'influenced by the moon,' it came to be used—as the long tongue of English grew fond of the word—to mean 'referring to anything that happened on earth,' then with a pejoration of that sense, sublunary became synonymous with 'gross,' 'earthly' and 'mundane.' I always think it fits best in phrases (my own) like sublunary frolic, or sublunary antics that comprise the cloddish dance of life. In The Anatomy of Melancholy (1621 CE), Robert Burton spoke of "sublunary devils. . . fiery, aerial, terrestrial, watery and subterranean."
Silver was Luna
In the annals of alchemy, ancient cauldron-stirrers gave the names of the seven alchemical metals the names of the seven ancient planets, so alchemists dubbed Sol the sun Gold; Luna the moon was Silver, Venus was Copper, Jupiter Tin, Saturn Lead, Mars Iron and Mercury, of course, was Quick-silver.
Don't Trip over Those Moonbeams!
How many vampire movies feature a nubile sleepwalker, a callipygous cutie, her nightie of diaphanous chiffon abillow in a night breeze, as she lunambulates down Dracula's chill corridor. Lunambulism is a rare and delightful sleepwalk supposedly caused by the moon, from luna Latin 'moon' + ambulare Latin 'to walk.' So Michael Jackson might have used it to name his moonwalk. Callipygous or callipygian means 'having shapely buttocks' from kalos Greek 'beautiful' + puge 'buttocks, rump.' Greek καλλίπuγος kallipugos was the epithet of a famous statue of Aphrodite, goddess of beauty, to whom the sculptor had given a superior posterior. Diaphanous is a fancy synonym for transparent, from... medieval Latin diaphanus < Greek diaphanes < diaphainein 'to show through' < dia- Greek 'through' + phainein Greek 'to show.'
Luna Moth
I will never forget the summer night of my luna moth, the surprise of my first sighting in Dundas County, Ontario. One teenage midnight I was bolting my uncle's barn doors. Quietly a phosphorescent lime glow loomed in the periphery of my vision. There on the night-black weathered wood of the barn-side, key-lit by moonlight, spread large moth wings, strangely green. American writer Annie Dillard, in her cautious hymn to nature, Pilgrim at Tinker Creek, wrote a true description: "Luna moths are those fragile ghost moths, fairy moths, whose five-inch wings are swallow-tailed, a pastel green bordered in silken lavender." Actias luna, its zoological name, was named after the moon because of two large vaguely crescent-moon-shaped translucent spots on their tapered hindwings, meant to look like large animal eyes and so frighten off moth-hungry predators. The luna moth boasts the broadest wing span and the serenest beauty of all North American moths.
At The Eclose
And we shall add a neat little moth verb, to eclose, a back formation from the English noun eclosion 'emergence of an insect from its pupal encasement.' Near the onset of the twentieth century, English entomologists borrowed the word from French éclosion 'hatching from an egg' < éclore 'to hatch,' ultimately from a Vulgar Latin verb not attested *exclaudere 'to hatch out' = ex Latin 'out of' + claudere Latin 'to close,' but in etymological reality, a pronunciation change caused a spelling change, for éclore actually stems from excludere Latin 'to hatch, drive out, exclude.'
Big Moon Monday
So, my moon and luna words having pupated, I must flutter away. But I remind you that a supermoon (very large) occurs early Monday morning, November 14, at approximately 8:52 a.m. ET. On the east coast the moon will have set just after 8 a.m., so the eastern coast of America won't get the complete effect. But dwellers beside the American Pacific Ocean will get the ganze megillah (full experience), so to speak.
A Couple of Supermoon Technical Words in Astronomy
Once a month the moon is at a position known as perigee, its closest to earth, and apogee, its farthest from the earth.
A syzygy, a lining up of celestial bodies, particularly the sun, Earth and moon occurs rarely. When it happens, earthlings get a full moon. Now, when the syzygy and the perigee coincide, we get the so-called supermoon.
The moon's perigee coincides with a full moon. The perigee is the point in the orbit of the moon around the earth when the moon is closest to the earth. Perigee is from Greek περί peri 'around, round about, near to, up next to' + Greek γάϊος gaios or γεῖος geios 'of the earth' from Greek γαῖα gaia or γῆ ge 'the earth,' an etymon that appears in dozens of English words like geography, geodesic, Gaia 'the earth mother or earth goddess,' geometry and geode. Peri is the ultimate prefixal etymon in words like perimeter and periphrastic.
The opposite of perigee is apogee, when its orbit places the moon farthest from the earth. Apogee < French apogée < Latin apogæum < Greek ἀπόγαιον > ἀπό apo 'off, away from' + Greek γάϊος gaios 'of the earth.' It is said: the moon is in apogee or at apogee.
Good lunar viewing! or Happy Selenoscopy! (Greek, 'moon viewing') but I made the word selenoscopy up as a playful neology.

Discussion in 'Lawn Mowing' started by bobbygedd, Jan 1, 2004.
bored, lets chat
i could use a storie
Bobby, I would love to chat, but when I try to download the AIM, page not found or experiencing difficulties.
same here . i'm waitin for jodi, or someone who can, to get us both in
technical difficulties, my azz. Bobby, I think it is a conspiracy. Ohh I know, lets talk here until they let us in. We will annoy them into letting us be part of the group.
Is this a program that allows you to actually speak to each other, or does it put you in a messenger type format where you type back and forth?
The reason I ask, is because, being a hardcore pc gamer, I have a few programs that allow you to speak to one another through the pc for free. All you need is a sound card and a microphone, and you can get a mic for $5.00-$10.00 at any best buy or something. One person hosts a session, then makes a post stating the IP (Address) and password for others to join. Works great in games, and also for chatting, troubleshooting, etc.
If anyone is interested, let me know and I can post where to download them and how to set them up. They are simple to use and the voice quality is very good.
I did invite you. I tried 3 times, and you didn't show up.
Hi Elephant - it is always good to hear from you.
The situation we are talking about is the chat room that you access by going to the chatroom section below and it uses AOL Instant Messaging. The deal is, when I try to download AIM, to reinstall in my computer, since I had to reformat my hard drive and lost that, it won't let me download. Up pops a message of page not found or experiencing difficulties. Puzzling isn't it?

I feel like I probably shouldn't write any more blog posts about being lost and confused, for fear of a) sounding like a broken record, and b) getting any more concerned pats on the shoulder from people who know me in real life and read my blog. I do really appreciate the concern and the support (some people have been so kind), it's just that in some areas people have made assumptions about how I am, and tried to diagnose me with various things, and honestly... I really am okay. It's just kind of a weird time - a time of growth, and reflection, and decision-making, and sometimes it's felt a little wearing, and tiring. But the only way out is through, right?
I am trying really hard to bring my blogging back to the realm of catchup posts, reviews, photos of days out, but the truth is, I'm just so exhausted at the moment that I feel like I've been doing little else than commuting to and from work, cooking dinner and then collapsing into bed. My commute is one of the things I feel like I really have to change in order to improve my overall wellbeing and happiness. I'm actually boring myself how much I whinge about it now! If I had no commute I'd have an average of an extra three hours to myself a day. Can you imagine that? Three hours! I've been working on the workbook section of The Desire Map and I've just completed a section on 'things that aren't working', and it's surprising how much 'time' comes up (or perhaps it's not). I've noted that I don't have enough time for hobbies, for creativity, for running, for yoga - all that good stuff that makes me feel content, and relaxed, and fulfilled, and happy. So just from a practical perspective, not losing so much time per day to sitting in my car would be a win. (Of course I also need to prioritise making time for things that make me feel good).
img credit: iconosquare.com
I think I'm quite a selfish person sometimes - it's an accusation that's been levelled at me on many occasions. I'm quite strong-willed, impulsive and stubborn and I don't like anyone telling me I can't do things. Of course, when you're married and settled in a particular location, you can't just uproot your life and move because you want to shorten your commute. I feel wedded to my job because I love the organisation I work for (Tom and I both work for the same organisation), and the location I work in is where the majority of my friends live; but we live 26 miles away. I feel lonely where we live - we don't have any friends within ten minutes of our house, and though we have a handful of friends a little further out, I long to have friends and family to close enough to pop round for a cup of tea and a natter with. But where we live is perfect for Tom - he can surf, kitesurf, walk the dog (which he loves), he has friends here, and it's a good location for his work. So it's a tricky situation for us as a couple as obviously we want to find a way to make decisions that make us both happy.
In many ways we are so lucky - if my desires were to live (almost) in the middle of nowhere, have a fluffy little dog, a garden, a nice house, and places close by for walking the dog and going for the odd pub lunch, I would have it nailed. But as much as I like the quiet of living somewhere quite rural; seeing deer in the forest when I get the train home, being late for work because there's cows in the road (ha) ... I also long to be able to walk to restaurants in the evening, to go to the cinema without having a half-an-hour drive, to be able to easily go to shops or for a drink now and then. I miss being able to walk to friends' houses, or being able to visit my parents without a two-hour round trip (much less than some people, I know) I've been thinking a lot about my personal values recently and I also discussed them with my life coach a couple of weeks ago. Some of the things that are important to me are connection, friendship, and creativity. These things are really lacking from my life at the moment - so many of the people I feel closest to (Sarah and Katy for example) live several hours away, and even those friends who live 'in the area' who I love spending time with (like Emma, and Olivia) are still a minimum 25 minutes away. I am envious of people who have a 'best friend' who knows everyone about them, who they speak to almost daily, and see regularly enough that you don't have to have a lengthy 'when did I last see you' catchup every time you see each other. It would mean so much to have someone like that to talk to right now.
Creativity is another thing my life coach quickly identified as being important to me. She thinks that creating things, and writing, is the antidote for my stress and feelings of unrest, and that I should pursue it wherever possible. I've been trying to write more personal 'stream of consciousness' type blog posts on here lately (like this one!) and I've been writing more poetry, and it definitely makes me feel better. (I hope they're not dull to read!) I just can't help feeling like having more time to write (not least just not being tired all of the time) would just be amazing.
There's a lot of decisions to be made at the moment - where we might live (which unfortunately means us both significantly compromising - which I'm learning is the foundation of a successful marriage!), whether I ought to change jobs and which hobbies and goals I should prioritise (I just don't have enough time unfortunately to blog, run, do yoga, take on a new qualification, read the books on my 'to-read' pile, watch all the box sets I want to watch, write poetry, put things in my project life scrapbook, read all of the various magazines I subscribe to, travel, go away for long weekends, see friends and family, go on photography trips, go to boxing class, and so on).
It feels like a strange time. Your early-30s really are when you make decisions that will affect the next 5 or 10 years of your life (or the whole rest of your life if you decide to have children - not something I want right now, or maybe at all). What makes it tougher is, as I've explained in lots of other posts, I just don't have any of the answers at the moment. Do I want to live 'the good life' - grow my own vegetables, bake at the weekends, live in Dorset, go on long walks with the dog, visit country houses at weekends... or do I want 'the city life' - drinks after work, shopping trips, cocktails with friends, weekends away in different European cities, a big, spacious flat (with a garden for Bodhi!). A mix of both, I think - who says you have to be 'all one column' anyway? But it's tricky to know sometimes what you do really like, and what you just 'think' you like, because social media, films, friends, etc, make you feel like you should. (I both love and hate watching Made In Chelsea because I always end up feeling depressed that I'm not jetsetting around the world, going to pool parties and blowing money on designer clothes).
There's no resolution to this post, of course - just a lot of decisions that need to be made, a lot of ideas and thoughts, and a lot of confusion. If only I had a time machine - I quite fancy being 17 again right now, being 31 is complicated.

User review on Nissan Terrano written by Rishabh shukla on 27 August 2015
Rishabh shukla's review on Nissan Terrano XV D THP Premium 110 PS
Year of Manufacture : 2015 | Driven no. of Kms. : 6300
- Pros: Pickup and mileage.
- Cons: Fuel Efficiency
Pick up and mileage is excellent of the car and currently I'm getting mileage of the 1461 cc Diesel, powered variant delivers a fuel economy of 18 kmpl in city and 20 kmpl on highways. Awesome ride quality and handling, but during overtake I need to shift to 4th Gear which I felt something difficult but its manageable. The steering needs to have integrated audio controls and boot lid is too hard.

One of the hardest thing about being a photographer is going out for a few hours taking pictures and coming back and not being happy with nay of the shots you took. At least with digital it is a lot easier to take than with film.
Today I went up to Bonner park looking for a particular shot but I also wandered around a bit. I met up with a friend and we were going on the trails looking for the shot we wanted. We found and both took some pictures. I got back and loaded them into Lightroom and was pretty unhappy with the results but I've tried to make them work as best I could.
This is the location we were looking for. I didn't get the lighting right at all unfortunately.

Indigenous Trailer (2014)
"There are places you should never visit. This is one of them." 20 April 2014 Horror 86 mins
A group of five American friends on the cusp of adulthood travel to Panama to relax and reconnect. They befriend a local woman in their hotel bar—and despite some ominous whispers—she goes against the specific instructions of her brother and brings the Americans on a daytrip into the pristine falls at the nearby jungle. What begins as an innocent outing to a picturesque waterfall quickly turns terrifying after she suddenly goes missing. As night closes in, the friends realize too late the truth behind the rumors—the legendary, blood-sucking Chupacabra is now stalking them.

Spiral Balance identification question
A home owner from USA says:
November 25, 2014
Need help identifying window balances it is 31 inches long. The vinyl tube od is 7/16 and the metal spiral od is 3/8 the tip is a white to clear plastic bottom window tilts and bottom window weight is 20 lb may also need a tool to install them. thanks.
Dave Sr. from SWISCO responded:
November 26, 2014
Thanks for posting. Can you confirm the diameter of the plastic tube? It should be either 3/8" or 5/8".
A home owner from Georgetown Ky says:
December 2, 2014
Sorry for the late reply. The plastic tube is 5/8.
Paul from SWISCO responded:
December 3, 2014
Thank you! In that case, I recommend our S600-31 spiral balance. I would also recommend the Red Tip option, but weigh your sash just to make sure. Also keep in mind that our balance tubes are metal, not plastic. We find that plastic tubes get brittle and shatter too often.

i'm still in love with my ex .. we still talk a lot and even when he went abroad he send me messages everyday to ask me how I am and tell me what he's up to i'm confused what are his feelings?
sort by best latest
Ask him and stop being "confused".
So many women fall into the trap of looking for "signs" or "clues" like 7th and 8th grade girls asking friends to find out if a boy likes them....etc You have a history with this guy so it should be easier for you to be direct with him.
When you become grown at some point you have to drop your "sippy cup" and put on your "big girl" pants.
No one enjoys having their feelings hurt or being rejected. I get that. However life is short and the upside to getting rejected is it saves you time!
This is time and energy you could be investing in someone who is actually (there for you) physically, mentally, and emotionally.
We tend to romanticize past relationships over time.
Keep in mind an ex is an ex for a reason and it's usally a good one. Your future lies ahead of you and not behind you.
If you are afraid to find out (if he wants you back) ask him if he is dating anyone or has met anyone yet. I suspect the real reason why he is staying in constant contact with you is because he has yet to adjust to his new surroundings.
Whenever someone is far away it's only natural for them to want to reach back for a taste of "home". Gradually as one becomes more acclimated to their new environment the frequency of calls, texts, and email will drop off significantly. Finding out where you stand keeps you from shutting down your life while he is "exploring" what his new home town has to offer.

Good morning Dinks and Happy Thanksgiving. Another year has passed and it's time to look back on the past year and think about all the things we're thankful for this year. These are all the things I'm thankful for this year:
My family, most of the time anyways. My family has definitely had our ups and downs and I've shared a lot of that here on Dinks Finance. I complain about my family, but at the end of the day I have to be thankful that I still have a family…what's left of it. At the end of the day I'm thankful to have my family around because some people aren't so lucky. Choosing not to talk to your family is one thing, but not even having the option to call is a whole other story.
My friends all five of them. There is a quote that says "Friends are God's way of apologizing to us for our families", this really hits me personally. I don't have the best family situation and at the end of the day my friends have always been there for me. After my family fall out my friends have always been around to celebrate every birthday, Easter, Christmas and any other holiday so I don't have to be alone. Friends have a special bond because you choose your friends, but you can't choose your family.
My job, however long I have it. I love my job in digital marketing, I really do. I'm thankful that I was able to make a career change from financial planning to marketing at 33 years old. I had experience in writing for the web and social media from blogging and I went back to school to get a diploma in journalism; but the truth is no one had to give me a chance because all my work history was in banking. I'm thankful I found a job I love and when our company is sold in the next few weeks I'm hoping I still have job.
Our new apartment. Nick and I moved October 1 and as I've said here many times it's a money pit. However I'm thankful for our new apartment because I absolutely love the space. We are finally settling in to our new space and things are coming together, just in time for the holidays. I love living with Nick and I'm thankful we've been together all these years, but this year I'm really thankful for our new apartment.
Money situation has improved over the years. I am definitely thankful my money situation is not the same as it was five years ago. Back then I was over my head in debt and now I'm not. Now I live on less, but I don't live without and I'm happy with that. I know improving my finances by increasing my income and lowering my debt was my doing, but I truly believe the powers at be gave me the will to strength to do it – for that I'm thankful.

Baños de Agua Santa or just Baños is an Ecuadorian city of the province of Tungurahua. It is a major tourist center of the country, is located about 45 minutes from Ambato. He is the head of the canton Baños and has a population of 12,995 people. The most important economic activity Canton inbound tourism. The WWF gave him a bath nominative "A Gift to the Earth"
Baños, is located on the slopes of the Tungurahua volcano a height of 1820 meters (m), close to the geometric center of the Ecuadorian territory. It enjoys a pleasant climate almost all year round; despite high humidity. The Sangay and Llanganates national parks. They are located on the flanks of the canton.
Baños is also a center of religious pilgrimage since the hot springs are popularly associated with "miraculous" cures by the influence of the Dominicans community that is settled in this area for a long time.
The oldest Spanish chronicles refer to the populations of this region and people who spoke languages Puruhaes and Panzaleos, the ancient name of the valley was Ipo (in language Puruha). The population of the valley was not stable and there Quichua groups.
The first inhabitants that populate Baños almost certainly belong to such men of Lagoa Santa (Brazil), who infiltrated venturing through the basin of the Pastaza River to the border of the Andes (remains found in the caves of San Pedro in 1919, 44 skulls, stone and clay artifacts that are now in Jijón Jacinto Caamano Museum and the Catholic University of Quito, as well as archaeological remains found in Runtún, Machay, etc)
Baños according to reliable historical data, some had no founder or founding date. Simply was populated with the arrival of small scattered groups of Indians (before the conquest) and Spaniards and mestizos especially traded goods from the East to the Highlands and viceversa.Se spoke to Bath was founded by the Spanish in 1553, but this is not real. The confusion is because in that year was when the Order of the Dominicans is assigned to evangelize the Canelos region and Bobonaza. When the Spanish first arrive on this site, which called it IPO in Puruhá language, they find small groups of Panzaleos and Puruháes, many of them, who had fled the massacres of the Spanish. In addition they found a certain coming of East Indians. This population was not stable
Of the 15, 16th and 17th centuries there are very few original writings historical data, among which we can mention, in this regard, the following: In 1541 Father Vacas Galindo tells the arrival of Gonzalo Diaz de Pineda, Martin Street, Alonso de Orejuela along with a contingent of Spanish soldiers, who were accompanied by huambaloes Indians, who had told them that on the slopes of Tungurahua was a silver mine. These conquerors, ambitious for wealth, are made to allocate these lands for exploitation, along with his other relatives, by the Cabildo of San Francisco de Quito. Luckily, the desire to find gold in the country of El Dorado (expeditions Baeza), made these gentlemen of the alleged mines forget.
The chronicler Ruiz Toro Isaiah tells us that in 1585 Pedro Fernandez de Espinoza property gives the priest Alvaro Guerrero Zalamea, the chieftainship of IPO. This religious comes to take possession of this land and called Stay of Our Lady of Monserratte. This man comes with Alonso Guerrero, which takes possession of what Hacienda de San José de Juivi be called. These two partners likewise indigo factory installed at these locations. It was just supposed to Alvaro Guerrero who began with the cult of the Virgin Mary, and is itself in the years when they built the famous Shrine of Our Lady. Pilar Ponce Leiva (Archive of the Indies), tells a story that dates back to 1604, which states that when they arrive at this point called "Seat of the Baths" since 8 blocks from the tiny village at the foot of waterfall, 2 water sources (cununyacus) were, as inhabitants are 40 Indian carriers and a few Spaniards who bathe in these waters (a hot pool and a cold, which mix them). For the Indians enjoy this water call ishpaypae which means bathing in piss Mama Tungurahua. Almost next to these aspects, he says, it is a small church of adobe thatched (La Ermita de la Virgen).
In 1694 the new owner of these lands is the Spanish General Antonio Palomino Flores (owner of the Hacienda San José de Juivi and San Vicente, of which the Baños of the time it was composed) pact with the clergy of this site and agrees For each year in the sum of 3,000 pesos for the chaplaincy and the maintenance of the priest. This money, of course, taken from the work of their workers. This controversial deal is seen by some as an act of a benefactor and others simply act as a landowner more than one operator. For 1764 the Italian Father Mario Cicala in his description Historical Topography of the Province of Quito, described these people as follows:
"It properly Los Banos, a place of waters to which people come from across the province, pilgrims and important people. There are some 300 souls who live almost entirely in squalid thatched houses. Almost all are mestizos. A Dominican priest . It has a warm, humid climate. They are grown on their land maize, cassava, sweet potatoes, camotillos, bananas and peppers of various species. For near the town passes the Rio Grande de los Banos (Pastaza from 1778.Longitud to the Amazon 643 km) .
Its small church burned producing a great miracle, as the wooden image of the Virgin remained intact. The faithful were proposed to build a new church and are building a church of lime and stone "(which was concluded in 1788). On February 4, 1773 the first eruption of historically described Tungurahua occurs. A catastrophe for Baños and surroundings . Before this eruption, several writers and historians, including Father Juan de Velasco, say the volcano was shaped like a pyramid finished in a very pronounced peak, which suggests that the crater we know today began to form with this eruption. Fiery clouds and lava flows launches colossus. The hill of Calvary is formed in this catastrophe. The lava through one of the channels of Bascun going by what is now the street Martinez and reaches the gates of the Ermita de la Virgen was something rebuilt since the last fire. By these years begins to visit Baños likes of Pedro Vicente Maldonado and First Marquis of Selva Alegre, Montufar and Frazo.
The chronicler Isaiah Toro Ruiz, reports that, in 1585, the encomendero Pedro Fernandez de Espinoza property gives the priest Alvaro Guerrero Zalamea, the chieftainship of Ipo. This religious takes possession of the land in the valley and called Estancia (ranch) of Our Lady of Monserratte. Simultaneously another encomendero Alonso Guerrero takes possession of an area called Hacienda de San José de Juivi. These people have also partnered to establish a factory for the production of indigo. Presumably they were also the initiators of the cult of the Virgin Mary in these places.
In 1694, these lands were entitled to Spanish General Antonio Palomino Flores (owner of the Hacienda San José de Juivi and San Vicente, of which the Baños of that time consisted) pact with the representatives of the clergy and promises to give each year the sum of 3,000 pesos for the chaplaincy and the support of a priest.
During the second half of the nineteenth century, there were many political conflicts and civil wars nationwide, Bath became an oasis of neutrality and shelter for both conservatives and liberals, including Juan Montalvo (Finance Puntzán). Many Colombian immigrants take possession of land and property in the area with the approval of President Garcia Moreno, among other families Romo, Erazo Gonzalez Fierro and Argoti.
Notable estates around the village were: Ulba, Ulbilla, Valencia, Vizcaya, Agoyán, Puntzán, San Vicente, Illuchi, Juivi. Baños population was divided at the beginning of the century between landowners and rural laborers.
Twentieth century and today
In 1887, he arrived as pastor Thomas Halflants Belgian priest, who also assumed the duties of mayor and made possible the development of many works, among which are: the delineation of the city streets, building bridges of San Francisco, El Topo, San Martin and the Boards, the first water catchments in Chigla, rebuilding the old church building of the Basilica of the Virgin (1904-1944) and the acquisition of the bronze fountain in the Plaza de El Higuerón . In 1909 the Belgian priest happens Van Shoote. This influenced the religious character of the population.
From 1916-1920 the second contemporary eruption of Tungurahua, in 1918 a huge explosion that shakes the earth in Riobamba, lahars and washed down to Nahuazo occurs occurs. Rain rubble and ashes that day in that time.
In 1928, President Isidro Ayora, built the old road Ambato - Baños, making it the main access to the Amazon region of Ecuador. The December 16, 1944 was officially founded Baños Canton; the First President of the Cantonal Council was Pedro Tomás Vargas and the first president elected in popular votes was Carlos Gonzalez.
Ambato earthquake of August 5, 1949 seriously affected Baños, reducing to rubble almost all buildings in the city. The population declined dramatically, there were many dead and many of the survivors left the city.
In 1999, the Tungurahua volcano was activated; Baños and population was evacuated completely. Since then, the still active Tungurahua presenting major eruptions in 1999, 2000 and 2006.

Hey guys!! OMG can you believe it's September? Where has the year gone? What I was assuming was going to be a small week ended up pretty big. I got a lot of awesome books for review! And I just now realized that it's my 2 year Blogoversary tomorrow, but I suck and didn't plan anything. Still, I'm excited I've been blogging two years!! I love all of you and I can't believe that you all want to read what I have to say! Also, by 8 year wedding anniversary is on Wednesday! Pretty exciting week for me.
Lol! I'm covering my ears because the train is going by and it's loud! This frame is a total win!

Soy Sauce
Thais use a number of different seasoning sauces in cooking, especially in stir-fried dishes. One of the most basic and universally used sauces is soy sauce. In their development of the humble fermented soy beans, Thais have gone well beyond their Asian neighbours. Soy sauce - see-eew in Thai - in Thailand is like vinegar in European cooking, in its variety.

We're very excited that our new culture analytics essay on creativity and MFA programs, as well as issues of gender and racial diversity in publishing, has been published at the Atlantic Monthly. We use text mining techniques to reveal some troubling patterns in creative writing today, and tell a new story about institutions and creativity. In the next week or so, we'll be publishing more details and findings about our experiment.

Send us your rejected manuscripts!
Donate your ideas to science not Facebook! Every day we post valuable information to social media sites. These platforms use that information to learn all sorts of things about us. But they never share that learning back with us. We want to start a new culture of idea donation in which the knowledge gained is given back to you the participants.
Have you ever written a novel or a short story and had it rejected? We want to hear from you!
In this project, we're interested in understanding what makes a work of creative writing pass through the gatekeepers of editors, publishers, and marketing departments. What are they selecting for? Does anyone on the outside really know?
We have lots of examples of things that have been successfully published. New novels, new short stories appear every day. But what we can't see are the piles and piles of rejected manuscripts from which the successful ones are chosen.
Knowing how these choices are made can help aspiring writers of the future navigate these filters better (assuming it isn't random, but we might learn that too!). But it can also give us a critical lens through which to view the often narrow ways we think about creativity today.
If you want to donate your manuscript to our project, please send it as word document along with a copy of your rejection letter/email (if you received one) to:
Of course, if your material becomes a part of our published study, we will not include any information about your name or identity – everything will be kept anonymous.
And we will definitely share our findings with you.

I know people are going to say your media card is busted but I can view and play my media on Astro and I can access & play my roms from my SD card for my emulators. Can anyone think of why my media isn't showing up? Thanks in advanced.

Memorial Tributes
"" Uncles have a special role. Not being our father, they can be a friend and a supporter in a different way than anyone else in our lives. They are both a relative and a companion; one of the few people able to be both. Whether they are crazy and weird and only seen at holidays or our fishing buddy and mentor, the loss of an uncle is a particularly hard one. Their loss, however, is filled with the years of happy memories we had.""

The Grain Hedge Team provides a macro-focused daily view of the world's grain markets. Kevin McNew received a bachelor's degree from Oklahoma State University and his master's and Ph.D. degrees in Economics from North Carolina State University. He spent 10 years as a Professor of Economics with the University of Maryland and Montana State University focusing on commodity markets and is widely regarded for his ability to boil-down complex economic situations into easy-to-understand concepts for applied life.
On Tuesday, bulls and bears each got a sliver of hope in the latest round of USDA data, with corn bulls finding a silver lining in lower stocks, while wheat bears saw higher carryout than had been anticipated. But, the net result was not much in the way of strong conviction in terms of price direction. Overnight, trading was mostly sideways with soybeans picking up a few cents while corn and wheat were mostly unchanged.
The brightest news on Tuesday came from corn where ending stocks were below 1,800 MB thanks to improved usage forecast for ethanol and higher exports. Soybeans were modestly lower at a 150 MB as compared to expectations of q152 MB. USDA bumped export projections by a modest 25 MB, waiting to see if the exports will be able to sustain their lofty levels or whether deals will be canceled later this year. Wheat stocks bucked the trend showing higher than expected stocks on higher US imports from Canada.
Following Tuesday's report, several key Western Corn Belt soy plants reduced their continuing a trend of softening spot basis levels over the past 3 weeks. However, with a negative carry beyond the next month, cash buyers are starting to bid up basis levels for March delivery with the overall cash market spread between January and March at a -14.8 cent discount across all cash buyers on average, as compared to the futures which is trading at a -16.25 discount between Jan & Mar futures.
Overnight tender business was fairly active with a Taiwan company seeking 23,000 MT of US corn and 12,000 MT of US soybeans. Bangladesh bought 50,000 MT of optional origin wheat. Egypt's GASC is seeking wheat from a tender issued on Tuesday, but overnight they amended the tender to only source Russian wheat.
