Pathway Providence announces new EB-5 Regional CenterPosted:
New Effort to Boost Jobs in RI Through Foreign Investment
Reed, Taveras, Pathway Capital Partners announce first RI-based EB-5 Regional Center
PROVIDENCE, RI – In an effort to spur job creation and boost economic development in Rhode Island, U.S. Senator Jack Reed, Providence Mayor Angel Taveras, and officials from Pathway Capital Partners, today gathered at Pathway's Providence headquarters to announce a new EB-5 Regional Center aimed at attracting foreign investment to Rhode Island.
Created by Congress in the 1990s, the Immigrant Investor Program, also known as "EB-5," is a visa program designed to attract new capital from foreign investors interested in making a substantial investment in the U.S. economy. Under the EB-5 Regional Center Pilot Program, multiple foreign investors join together, each of them contributing at least $500,000 toward new U.S. business ventures that will result in a minimum of 10 full time jobs.
There are currently over 320 EB-5 Regional Centers operating in the U.S., including a dozen in New England, but until now there haven't been any based in Rhode Island. This new center could help create jobs in the Ocean State and raise Rhode Island's profile among international investors.
Regional Centers identify investment opportunities that will create jobs in local communities, often in partnership with economic development agencies. They also assist in marketing those investment opportunities to investors from around the world and ensure that the investment offering complies with federal and state securities laws and SEC regulations as well as specific EB-5 requirements.
The centers are designated by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), the federal agency in charge of lawful immigration into the United States.
"Our designation will give developers a unique opportunity to capitalize projects in Rhode Island with the participation of foreign investors. The access to capital requires a mandate for jobs creation in order for the investor to obtain a visa," said company CEO Henry Diamond. "It becomes a very effective tool for project developers within the State; we foresee this as an important step in revitalizing the state's economy and have been in discussions with various projects within the Capital City with the continued support of Mayor Taveras and the director of Economic Development for the City of Providence, Jim Bennett."
"We need to be smart about bringing jobs and economic development to Rhode Island and this program can help the state become a magnet for foreign investment," said Senator Reed, who supported Pathway's application to be federally-designated as an EB-5 Regional Center. "We need to work together to increase Rhode Island's competitiveness and position the state as a destination for innovation, investment, and entrepreneurship. This is an important program for Rhode Island with a great deal of potential to provide new entities, businesses, developments, and entrepreneurs with a new capital channel to access foreign investment and create jobs here in Rhode Island."
"I thank Senator Reed for his leadership on bringing needed projects to Rhode Island with this important investment. The location of an EB-5 Regional Center here in Providence will help us leverage foreign investment dollars in projects within our city and across Rhode Island. These investments will create much needed jobs for area workers, supporting the work we have begun with our 20-point economic plan, Putting Providence Back to Work."
Before an investor can participate in a Regional Center's EB-5 investment program, they must be approved by USCIS. Successful foreign investors who prove that their investment generated at least 10 jobs in the U.S. are eligible to get a permanent visa.
Spending associated with EB-5 investors contributed $2.65 billion to the U.S. gross domestic product during 2010-2011, according to a report by the Association to Invest in USA. This report also found that spending by EB-5 investors also contributed $347 million to federal tax revenues and $218 million to state and local tax revenues.

Two weeks ago I interviewed my grandfather about his views on television, in particular its history. This week I had the pleasure of calling him back to question him on what his thoughts were about The National Broadband Network.
Now my knowledge about the NBN is very limited, and I had the thought that it was just of interest to my age group. But that was before I attended my lecture this week on the topic. And I have to say that in combination with my own interview and what has been discussed in class, the NBN is an issue that affects all Australians.
Luckily for me my grandfather has a broad knowledge of the NBN (it's great having technical gurus for grandparents). Although where he lives is yet to have the NBN installed, other areas around him do. He thought that the areas close to him that have the NBN including Surfers Paradise, Broadbeach and Southport have the NBN because they are the hub of the Gold Coast, and thus the demand is higher for faster internet along with a greater population to take advantage of it.
My grandparents have WiFi in their house, along with a desktop computer that isn't used as much as the iPad. They're both very satisfied with their internet service provider and are happy at the speed which it runs. That's a big issue for most people in relation to the internet, the speed at which they can download things. Australia's internet is miles behind South Korea's or Hong Kong's internet speeds. But my grandfather said that wasn't an issue for him, compared to say myself who firstly uses the internet for different things to him, and downloads.
So my understanding what the NBN would entail was starting to take shape. Firstly the basic definition I got of it was that it would allow for a faster and more reliable system of internet throughout the whole of Australia. While in the lecture we were presented with what was a delightfully ridlicious video of the "Australian NBN house of the future" type scenario. What was particularly entertaining was that the video had been originally on the NBN website, but then removed. I presume from ridicule. Anyway, the video showed several different sexist, lazy and unrealistic scenarios going on within this family. The only one which I thought could ever really be achievable in the long run was the father running his business from home. With what appeared to be several hundred smart computers in the house, that was the only one which I could picture actually happening as a result from the NBN. There was in another room of the house the typical student learning over Skype in a virtual classroom, which already happens. One example which I found to of been particularly odd was the grandmother giving herself a blood pressure test over the internet with her doctor assessing the results at his office. Now I understand that medical facilities are not always close, but this was shot in a suburban street. Which leads me to the most frustrating aspect of the promo for me. The mother was instructing the washing machine when to run (at the most economical time mind you) and then doing online shopping in a weird modern day white suburban mum like Clueless virtual closet. She could have taken Nan to the doctors, just saying….
Despite all this techno-madness trying to be pushed at consumers, the NBN does seem incredibly amazing. If it is ever rolled out everywhere. Where it has been trailed in Australia there has been a mostly positive response. Especially in relation to people not having to commute to attend work, working from a home office may be the next big lifestyle trend in Australia. Which would reduce travel and overall boost the health of people not having to travel so far to an office each day.
The biggest point that I found to have been raised in relation to the NBN is how much will it cost? If it is being rolled out in streets, people are going to have to pay. That's my final point my grandfather mentioned in our conversation. He would be willing to use the NBN, but it came down to the price of the service. If it was able to deliver what it says it will, then people will pay. If not well…
The main issue I see so far with the NBN is how it has been present. The one video we saw was of a white suburban family, not exactly the most accurate representation of Australia. Coming from the country where the NBN is not even being considered to be rolled out there yet, I feel that there needs to be a better understanding of what the whole of Australia needs. Not just where the majority of commuters need.

Congress has the opportunity to give low-income parents in the District of Columbia scholarships of up to $7,500 to enroll their children in a private school of their choice. The proposal, passed by the Senate Appropriations Committee and the House of Representatives, will come to a final vote in the near future as part of the FY 2004 D.C. Appropriations bill or an omnibus appropriations bill.
During floor debate or conference, it is essential Members not add additional mandates to the legislation's existing requirements on schools and families. Additional requirements will reduce the number of options for participating families and are unlikely to improve the program in any way.
History of the Legislation
Earlier this year, frustrated parents and prominent elected leaders such as Mayor Anthony A. Williams (D), D.C. Councilman Kevin P. Chavous and School Board President Peggy Cooper Cafritz called on Congress to pass legislation to provide needy students with scholarships to attend private schools. Despite D.C.'s per-pupil expenditure of over $12,000, students continue to fall behind. Less than 10 percent of the District's 8th grade students are proficient in reading, math, and science according to national assessments, and more than half lack basic knowledge of these subjects.[1]
On September 9, the House of Representatives passed an amendment to the FY 2004 D.C. Appropriations bill (H.R. 2765) modeled after the D.C. Parental Choice Incentive Act (H.R. 2556). The $10 million proposal would grant low-income children in the District a scholarship of up to $7,500.
The Senate Appropriations Committee approved a companion bill on September 4, 2003, which authorized $13 million for the scholarship program. The reform proposal also includes an extra $26 million for D.C. public schools and public charter schools. The $545 million D.C. Appropriations bill (S.1583)was reported out of Committee on September 4 but foes of parental choice have prevented it from reaching the Senate floor.[2]
For more history see D.C. Scholarship Proposal Would Give Students Access to Quality Schools by Krista Kafer (http://www.heritage.org/Research/Education/Bg1671.cfm)
Requirements in the Legislation
The Senate and House bills contain a number of requirements for organizations that administer the program and schools that participate. Organizations that administer scholarship programs must:
- Apply to the U.S. Secretary of Education,
- Have a majority of voting board members be residents of the District of Columbia,
- Ensure schools are financially responsible, and
- Use a random selection process for admissions, with priority given to students in low-performing public schools.
The House bill requires that scholarships be limited to children from families whose annual income does not exceed 185 percent of federal poverty guidelines, which is currently $34,040 for a family of four. The Senate bill requires that families' incomes not exceed 200 percent of poverty. Furthermore, both the House and Senate bills require an annual evaluation of the scholarship program.
The evaluation is to be conducted by the U.S. Secretary of Education and presented to Congress. The evaluation must include:
- A comparison of the students' academic achievement (including drop-out, retention, graduation, and college admissions rates as well as measures of safety issues) compared to those who do not use scholarships,
- Success of the program in expanding choice options for parents,
- Reasons parents choose to participate,
- Impact of the program on public schools, and
- Degree of parental satisfaction.
Additionally, the participating schools must report once a year to parents on their children's academic achievement, the aggregate achievement level of his or her classmates, and the safety record of the school. Schools may not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, or sex and must accept any students on a religious-neutral basis.
An amendment offered by Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) and adopted during committee mark-up in the Senate contains additional requirements. Organizations administering the program must test scholarship students with the same standardized tests given to students in D.C. public schools, and teachers at participating private schools must have college degrees. During committee mark-up and floor consideration, Senator Mary Landrieu (D-LA) and others failed in attempts to add additional requirements that would have required:
- Private schools meet adequate yearly progress (AYP) and teacher mandates under the federal No Child Left Behind Act,
- A loss of funding after three years if students did not make AYP. Public schools do not lose funding under such conditions,
- Teachers would have to be "certified" and to have met NCLB subject area mastery stipulations. Some of the best, most competitive private schools in the District such as Sidwell Friends and Georgetown Day School do not require "teacher certification," though many of their teachers hold Masters degrees and Ph.D.'s in the subjects they teach.
Another provision would have restricted the program so that only children from the D.C. public schools identified as failing under NCLB could participate. Had the amendments been adopted, only students from 15 District schools, mostly middle and high schools, could benefit from the program. Furthermore, these measures are not required of the charter schools in the District of Columbia, which enjoy significant bipartisan support.
Congress should pass legislation that will enable as many of the District's poor students as possible the opportunity to choose a good school. While negotiating the final appropriations legislation, Members should resist adding any new requirements that would restrict the number of schools or students who participate. Specifically, they should:
- Oppose adding mandates requiring private schools to meet the terms of the No Child Left Behind Act that are intended to raise achievement at ailing public schools. Private schools already are accountable to parents for their performance; NCLB sought to address the lack of accountability in the public system. Teacher certification and AYP requirements under NCLB would be superfluous to private schools. They would increase the cost of compliance and dissuade schools from participating, thus reducing the pool of schools from which poor families may choose. The District's private school students consistently achieve at higher rates than those in public schools. Private schools are inherently accountable to their clientele and should not be saddled with additional requirements.
- Do not constrain the number of students who can participate to those attending the worst public schools.Limiting the number of students who may participate according to where they attend school is unfair to the rest of the students. Just six percent of D.C. 4th graders are proficient in math, and only 10 percent are proficient in reading. In other words, a great many students at the District are "higher performing" schools are struggling. These students should be given an opportunity to attend a school that better meets their needs.
No New Restrictions
According to the FY 2004 D.C. Appropriations bill, "Parents are best equipped to make decisions for their children, including the educational setting that will best serve the interests and educational needs of their child." The bill will enable poor families in the District of Columbia to enroll their children in a school that best meets their needs.
Research on privately funded vouchers in the District and on private and publicly funded programs nationwide has shown school choice to be beneficial to students and to the public school system. [3] In order to make the most of this opportunity, it is essential that Congress not add new restrictions on schools or students to the legislation. Congress should send a strong bill to the President that will give the greatest number of families the greatest number of options for their children.
In the words of Mayor Anthony A. Williams, Councilman Kevin P. Chavous and D.C. School Board President Peggy Cooper Cafritz, "We, as local leaders, are simply imploring Congress to embrace our efforts to help our long-neglected student population with every available tool. We believe the current proposal adequately addresses legitimate concerns about constitutionality, separation of church and state, accountability, selection of students and other issues."[4]

Worst date? Best date? Share your stories
Sat in awkward silence or danced until the lights came on? Charming bistro dinner or peculiar pickled eggs? Share your best and worst date stories (instead of reading ours). Comment in the field below - We'll publish our favourite stories on Valentine's Day
While waiting for a supposedly very handsome man and standing by the perfume counter looking for a sensual scent, I was telling the salesperson that no man could look as good as the pictures he had sent me and that he was probably overweight...well little did I know, he was standing 2 feet away from me, extremely handsome and smiling...the salesperson laughed and said one word: Oops!
I could smell him from 10 feet away. We met outside a bar and I could smell him before I knew it was him. Bad start. It was very crowded and loud bar after a CFL game; we didn't know about the game, so it was bad planning. We agreed to meet at a quieter place where we could talk. He kept me waiting inside the bar for 20 minutes; I thought I was being stood up. Turns out, he waited for me outside. But he waited not outside the main entrance, which I could see from my seat, but outside the back one! He finally came inside and we ordered drinks. When the glass I was drinking from broke, he neither offered to help me clean up nor went to get a staff member to help me clean up. He just watched and kept talking about himself.
Although he knew I was a server myself, he stiffed the waitress, even though she comped our drinks, helped me clean up and dry myself and apologized profusely. I couldn't let that go, so I went to tip her. As I did, my purse spilled and he didn't help me pick up my stuff, he just stood there. At this point, not only I, but the other customers were just stunned. And giggling. I went home. When I got there, I had not one, but THREE messages on my voicemail about how rude it was to stand someone up, which, he never bothered to share with me that he left.
Just as I was getting into the well-deserved hot shower, the phone rings. It's 11:30 at night, and, you guessed it! It was him! Telling me what a great time he had, and could we do it again tomorrow? Um, how about NO?
Why are all the stories bad? Doesn't anyone else have a good first date story? OK, I'll share mine:
We were both 19. We had known each other at university for three months. She was from a small town, and I was from the big city. I was intoxicated by her sweetness and innocence, so I summoned every bit of charm at my disposal, I swept her off her feet, took her on a whirlwind tour of Toronto's downtown, showed her the sights, put stars in her eyes, and won her forever. It's now 23 years and two kids later, and we're still together, still holding hands in public, still in love. And she still counts that one night as one of the highlights of her life.
A good first date is not just some trick to get a woman into bed: it's an opportunity to give her an experience she won't forget: to show her something different, and set yourself apart. I took her for a short ride on the subway that night, and you might think "The subway? That's not romantic". But SHE had never ridden one before, and that's the whole point: the experience has to be something memorable for HER, not you. If you know what you're doing, anything can be romantic.
So I was meeting up with a guy from a fraternity at UofT to pick up some... er... study notes. I had met him a few times before, but this was our first time hanging out alone. We studied at his frat house for a bit, then he decided to accompany me home. We were having a good time chatting it up, and the chemistry seemed to be flowing as well. He tried making the moves on m, and I let him know he wouldn't be getting THAT lucky. Eventually we got hungry and decided to go out for sushi at NewGen. He ordered a ton of food, and I settled for a roll. At the end of our 'date', he told me he had no money and asked if I could pay (I asked him why he ordered so much, and he said it was for us, although I never had a bite).
Best date: My husband and I met in Havanna, Cuba, while I was studying at the University of Havana. It turned out we were both from the same city in Canada. Our first date involved hanging out on the Malecon (sea wall), and heading to the Hotel National, where we sat on the bench and watched the ocean. It was a simple date, but I thought "wow, if I can sit on a bench with this person, in silence, and feel totally at ease, then he's the one for me." Five years later, and we're still going strong!
MY first and ONLY date with this guy started with him making fun of me for waiting outside the restaurant where we AGREED to meet....it gets "better". He was rude to the wait staff and the chef who was cooking our food in front of us. When we started eating, he showed me the "right" way to hold chopsticks...uh, huh. My questions ( conversation starters ) were answered with one or two words...no questions for me....
We had been seeing each other for a couple of months and I was definitely smitten. For Valentine's Day, I decided to take him out for a really nice dinner (think $300 nice !!) on my barely more than minimum wage salary. He picked me up with a lovely card and flowers. We had a wonderful time, and then he drove me home. At the door he kissed me on the cheek and said goodnight... Strange, I thought, but it was late and we both had to work early the next day. About 15 minutes later the phone rang. It was him, and he broke up with me over the phone! Did I mention we worked at the same firm ?
First date with someone from online. He seemed so busy in his life I had no idea how he'd have time to date, but was a bit flattered he found time for me. However, a day-date starting at 9am Saturday was the only mutually convenient time. In advance, he told me he had all kinds of special surprises planned - I was excited! Sat rolls around and he is at least 20 mins late - hungover as all hell. Not just mildly - crippling. I had to accompany him to the pharmacy for gatorade chapstick and advil. He said he had planned to finish the surprises for me that morning but slept in. Ironcally, the only think he had managed to arrange were tickets to a cocktail exhibition even tho I said I didn't drink. Father of two, govt worker and aspiring lawyer - what a catch.
Certainly the most memorable. I was dating a guy who was already partnered. I knew they lived together but at that point not sure of their "status". So we went to this restaurant in Tokyo. Tokyo's pretty big, right? The staff seat us at a large table and we're having a good time. Who shows up at the restaurant? His partner/room-mate and HIS date for the evening. Doing what the Japanese do, the staff saw a number of white people and decided to put us all at the same table. Thousands of restaurants in a city of 12 million and they walked into ours. We all had a chuckle about it. We broke up, they broke up, but we're still on good terms. Actually, the 3 of us are.
For all of my years except one - and that's more decades than just a couple or a few - I have spent Valentine's Day alone. Dating in this age is tough enough, not to even say anything about getting to a relationship. So all I've ever known is that one Valentine's Day with someone special that will have to keep me inspired, hopefully just for now until it gets better. Till then, still a dreamer.
I went out with a guy last year who was two years younger than me. We got to the restaurant and he told me that his mother didn't approve of our date because I was older. I asked him how he felt about it and he told me that my "biological clock" was ticking so he wouldn't enter a relationship with me. Then we split the bill.
We were both exchange students in Denmark. We agreed to meet on a Friday night in the city centre. But I misheard the location due to his accent and a bad cell connection... I waited almost an hour at the wrong spot! So I started walking around to figure out what to do with my evening and I ran into him. He was glad to have found me and know I didn't stand him up! I explained where I was and we had a good laugh. It was a fun night in the end.
First 'date' met at a Student Political Gathering at U of C, felt a connection, but part of the gathering was a big sleepover in the student centre. Both woke up at 5:00 am unable to sleep, so went for a walk around campus talking about anything and everything...really deep connection. We came from different backgrounds (small town vs. big city) but had a ton in common. Then went to go back inside because we were freezing, and the doors to the Student Centre were locked until 7:00 am, so we shivered in the doorway for nearly an hour, trying to get someone's attention on the inside. Turned out ok, we were married just over 2 yrs later, and are still together 19 years after that.
He arrived at my door with roses and a bottle of wine. This was particularly appropriate as I met him in the Vintages section of the LCBO (where he worked). We drove up to Chelsea, Quebec for a tour of an art gallery, then we spent the rest of the evening in the Market in Ottawa, sharing our stories with one another. I was shocked to look at my watch and see that it was time to go home. When he dropped me off, we shared our first kiss. Both of us walked two feet off the ground for days afterwards. That was in 2008 and we were just married this past October. It feels like the perfect date that has never ended.

We were introduced by his roommate and we were both instantly drawn to each other. We went on twelve dates and he still hadn't kissed me. Fearing major halitosis or lack of interest, I confronted him and was shocked by his reply. He said that if he kissed me he knew he'd want to marry me and he had to make sure it was right. We've been happily married for 26 years now and he kisses me everyday. Vonda Ottawa
Online dating is like finding a needle in a haystack. I thought I potentially found a needle. We chatted non-stop (pictures, texts, phone) for two weeks due to prior commitments and single parenthood before meeting, and we both admitted we had hit it off. Got together one Friday night to watch movies and hang out. I said he could bring Star Wars (his fave) as I had not seen in a while. We chatted on and off throughout, had wine, snacks etc. After the first movie, I thought if he was staying that it was a good sign but I had no plans to watch the ENTIRE trilogy!! Yes, we watched all three. Never heard from him again. Seriously?!
I`m a gay and ended up on a "date" with a straight guy once. ...My friend and his colleague insisted he was hot for me. He was certainly friendly and interested it seemed, but I was still uncertain about his sexuality. My friend said if i didn't ask him out, she would ask him out on my behalf and don't be such a chicken. OK, but I was never so nervous to ask anyone out in my life. "Would he like to go for dinner?" "Sure," he said. I was almost sick as I headed over to pick him up; guess my subconscious was telling me something. Anyway it turned out a disaster with him offended and me withdrawing from the dating game for a couple of years. It's still not funny (expect I'm laughing).
He picked me up and we went to a movie out of town. While waiting in line to pay he turned to me and asked "Can you get in for child?" I looked at him and said "Seriously?" He was too cheap to pay adult price for me (I was 16 at the time) so I said to him "I may look young but I DON'T look 12!" That was the first and last date with this cheapo. And the movie? "Star Trek".
My best date was a blind one : we met through a Web site, but that was wayyyy back in 1997, when most people were not necessarily exchanging pictures before they agreed to meet. So after many great emails, we decided to meet in a coffee shop one night. He said he would be wearing jeans and a black turtleneck. I got there early, and it turned out there were several people there wearing jeans and dark turtlenecks. One must have been 14 years old. Another appeared to be severely disturbed, or on crack. Another one... suffice to say, I was getting ready to leave, when yet another turtleneck-and-jeans guy at the counter turned his head and looked at me, and then I knew. I fell in love that night and we've been together ever since.
I met my current bf working a pub. He'd come in and I'd switch tables just so I could serve him. Eventually he took the hint of my flirting and asked for my number. We went on our first date a few weeks later and just sat and talked for hours, found out that his great uncle was best friends with my grandfather and we had met members of eachother's family a few times when we were young. We've been together for 4 years and are currently expecting our first baby...and we can still just sit and talk for hours.
I have an encyclopedia of bad date stories but let me share a recent online dating horror. Met this guy on one of the online dating sites - tall, handsome, an engineer, doing MBA - his pictures looked really good (so check, check and check)so I was quite motivated to meet him. After a week of chatting on bbm (a week of my life I will never get back unfortunately), we decide to meet up for a drink in Yorkville. He shows up and I was impressed that he actually is as handsome as his photos (as opposed to the guys that send you pictures of themselves under really "good lighting"). And then......he spoke...omg he had the voice of the homosexual hairdresser! I was horrified but thankfully the place had loud music. I stuck it out as I was trying to decide if his looks were enough to compensate for that voice. After a few drinks, he suggested we go dancing (yippee a place with even louder music!). We get into his car and as he pulls out of the parking garage, he takes out a bottle of vodka he had hidden under the driver's seat, pours the vodka into an empty starbucks cup and starts drinking WHILE driving. If things could not get any worse, he asks if we can pass by a bank machine. He pulls over and then starts to smoke a spliff!! Needless to say, I was not impressed and I had to put up with his incessant messages for weeks afterwards calling me "babe" and "sweetie" and asking if we can do the "wonderful" night all over again. He even started getting upset and accusing me of being "weird" when I would not reply to his messages!
Don't give up on dating online! I didn't and found a great guy and we just got married. After meeting for coffee in Yorkville, we went out after Thanksgiving in October 2010 on our "first date" golfing in Niagara and dinner at a Brazilian
Steakhouse. It was a
Worst Valentine's day date: I was in a long term relationship for about 5 years. She went to the UK for school/work for one year, leaving in September. I visit her in Feb, we go out for dinner on Valentine's day and she proceeds to tell me about a guy she slept with a couple of times when we are apart. She didn't seem to get why I drank so much alcohol over dinner and ended up screaming at her just before the check arrived. I had to stay in the UK for another week. It gets better. I return home and within a few months I bump into an old friend from high school. We had been living in the same neighbourhood for years without ever bumping into one another. The UK girl hears about my new relationship, calls me and insists she is returning to Canada. I asked her why? She wanted to save the relationship. I laughed in her face and told her not to waste her money. A few months pass and I am engaged to the new woman, who I have known for 15 years. Within days of my engagement, the UK girl calls and tells me she is pregnant with some Brit's child. I wished her well and told her that I was getting married...there was a very long silence. It is now six years later, I am happily married with a 3 year old son. I have heard through the grapevine that UK girl regrets becoming a mother and is still working on her doctorate--year 8 going on 9. Funny how life works out sometimes.
I met a guy through an online dating site. We talked online for a while, then met in person. The date went alright, but there was no chemistry at all, so we didn't go out again. I kept trying, and did meet someone I liked through the same site. About 6 months later, my new guy took me to meet a friend of his in Toronto. We met her and her husband... the same man I'd had a date with 7 months earlier. They had been married for about seven years, so they were definitely together when we met. I didn't say anything about it, but he was obviously extremely nervous. He made his excuses, and left very quickly. His wife got a call a few minutes later: he had hit the back of a parked car on his bicycle, and had a broken hand and other injuries. His wife didn't have a car, so my new boyfriend and I had to take him to emergency. Very weird, and very awkward.
Oops iPAd sent before finished :). Online first date continued! It was a 12 hour first date and I knew he was the one when he kissed me good nite. One kiss at my front door and we set up our next date. I had a lot of "first dates" via online dating but I knew this guy was the one for me when one date quickly progressed to the next. So happy to be married to him for lots more awesome dates!!
Lacan 1:15, is chillingly similar to my experience, 5 years, she moved to UK for 2 years to do a Master's, also trapped in UK for 1 week or so, but escaped to spain, bumped into a friend there Travelled around with her, but the rest was different....I met my new wife a few years later online (12 hour first date kinda thing, knew she was the one!).
So I meet a man while attending a family event. My family does not know him, but knows his associates and feels OK about me setting up a date for the following Friday. I am excited and set up a babysitter, get a pedicure and new outfit. On the day of the date, I text him to confirm our meeting. No response. At 4pm I call and leave a message. He calls back at 8:30 to say he is too tired and can't make it. He wants to reschedule and I politely decline making it clear that he missed his chance. Must not be meant to be, I tell myself and consider the matter finished.
@you So I consider the matter finished and go about my life. The following Friday night I get a text at 3am. It is a picture of his junk! My family laughed and I posted on line for all the world to see. Really dodged a bullet there! Who does that?
Met her online a few years ago, we arranged to meet in a bistro on Bloor St one night. Everything going well, she excuses herself and disappears to the Ladies. 10 minutes go by. 15, 20. She eventually reemerges and excuses herself, saying she's in the midst of a panic attack and has to go home immediately. "I woke up this morning and FELT it coming on, should have stayed home." I ask her if she

News: New Website has Launched!•January 30, 2011 • Leave a Comment
We just launched the new OneBloom Photography wedding website. Also in the works is a new blog, portrait photography website and commercial photography website. Yes, we do it all. Where should we put the personal/artistic photography?
We love how the new site shows a stunning intro of 28 beautiful wedding images. The site works in smoothly in flash and HTML, including on the iPhone and other mobile devices. The new wedding photography website features weddings and engagement photography from Portland, Oregon and Vancouver, Washington as well. The goal was to create a simple open website that wasn't cluttered or filled with anything unnecessary. So, we had to drop the personal work and that also meant portrait and commercial photography. So – two more websites are being created! The new OneBloom Photography Blog will match the wedding website and be a showcase for all of our photography projects and wedding updates!
Also, currently facebook group is experiencing awesome growth! The audience that it reaches is huge and the feedback we recieve is fantastic! Thank you all for your support and love!

Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Threats to Azir with this build
|Not a threat to you at all. Melee ranged champion is easy to deal with. Deny her farm and experience. Zone her and punish her before she roams.
|Very very easy to handle. Keep poking him and deny him farm even under his turret if you are aware of the enemy jungler's location. Don't freak out when he lands his ult on you because you can push him back with your ult and punish him by kiting.
Champion Introduction
|Hi everyone, I'm Namikaze Minato and my IGN is MindCrush currently in Platinum IV and this is a guide to my all-time favorite champion, Azir. I want to help everyone who wants to play this awesome champion by sharing this guide. Do note that this is based from my playstyle so I do appreciate feedbacks and I highly encourage everyone to adjust to your liking. This is just to give you insights of how i play him so this is not the only way to play Azir.
To start off, Azir is fun to use with his soldiers. Almost everything will be about your soldiers doing the work for you. You can outrange almost everyone while laning and will easily zone out your enemy by properly placing your soldiers. Why auto attack yourself when the soldiers can do it for you and in a much longer range? Thank you for taking your time to read this guide and I do hope it helps you.
Pros / Cons
|+ Long ranged poke and auto attack
+ Can easily zone enemies
+ Emperor's Divide is useful in team fights
+ Shifting Sands provides a lot of utility
+ Can easily win in melee duels
+ Shurima's Legacy is awesome for zoning
|By strategically placing your soldiers and relocating them with Conquering Sands, your enemies will have no choice but to deal with your soldiers active. Azir is highly dependent on his soldiers so this should be favorable to you. If the situation gets tough, you can always get away with Shifting Sands and block their way with Emperor's Divide.
|- Heavily reliant on Arise!
- No sustain
- Lacks CC
- Hard to master
- Uses a lot of mana
- Shurima's Legacy gives huge gold to enemies
|Nobody is perfect and Azir also has a lot of imperfections in his kit. It's a rough time laning against a champion who pokes a lot from afar ( Xerath and Ziggs for example). The worst time to duel with Azir is when he has no soldiers near the enemy. As listed, his role is put to a minimum when Arise! is on cooldown and with badly positioned soldiers because he heavily relies on his soldiers to do pretty much anything. Finally, his killing potential is good for individuals and not group killing because you will rely mostly on your auto attacks and Conquering Sands which cant really damage a whole group.
- Greater Quintessence of Ability Power: My main source of AP early to help me zone and poke. You want to dominate early and keep your enemy on a leash at all times so you need to show them how painful you are early and tell them to keep cowering.
- Greater Mark of Magic Penetration: Only decent rune for mages. You can get attack speed from your passive and items, you wont need it from runes.
- Greater Glyph of Scaling Ability Power: Your choice to get this or Greater Glyph of Ability Power. For me it's enough to go with scaling to poke and zone.
- Greater Seal of Armor: Helps you mid-game to late-game because you will have to deal with physical damages too when your team clashes.
Alternate Runes
- Greater Glyph of Magic Resist: If you need to deal with pesky champions you hate like Xerath.
- Greater Seal of Health: If you want to do this then go ahead but its only good early game when laning.
My masteries are the usual set-up of 21/9/0. You can go for all sorts of usual set-ups for the mastery as long as you get the 5% Cooldown Reduction from Sorcery because the 35% will come from Nashor's Tooth, Athene's Unholy Grail and Ionian Boots of Lucidity. However, if you build Nashor's Tooth and Athene's Unholy Grail, then you can swap the points from Sorcery to Fury . Maximizing Ability Power from the offensive tree and just take the Juggernaut mastery from the defensive tree and you're good to go.
Summoner Spells
Ignite: This is standard spell if you want to aim for a kill early on. This is also useful for champions with good sustain like Swain.
Flash: Staple Spell, always have this since the utility of this skill is just so good. Flash over walls, dodge skillshots with huge area or even flash behind your enemy and push them to your team with Emperor's Divide.
Teleport: I don't usually get this unless I am swapping lanes with the top laner. This is used when you have to defend your tower after pushing their lane. The use of this spell is to defend your lane tower while helping out your other allies elsewhere. Don't waste this spell by teleporting to a lane with no clashes. Just save this up for defending your lane towers or when a clash is going on far away from you. And remember that teleporting to a lane tower reduces the cooldown of teleport by a lot.
Heal: This spell is basically to survive if the enemy could easily zone you. This is used to get HP from nowhere but avoid using when an ignite is active on you.
It's arguable why I don't usually go for Athene's Unholy Grail and I get where it is coming from. But from how I play him, I keep my distance most of the times that I rarely get hit by spells except for really long ranged spells like Xerath and Ziggs. The mana usage isn't a bother to me since i rely on auto attacks from my soldiers and Nashor's Tooth to deal damage. Another thing is swapping out Rabadon's Deathcap with Liandry's Torment. I choose to do this if the enemies are building up a ton of HP and Magic Resist as it grants a good passive to burn down their HP and Magic Penetration and since it goes well with Rylai's Crystal Scepter too. If you want to go without Magic Resist than dont bother building them and go for glass cannon, at least you can survive physical damages because of Zhonya's Hourglass.
Skill Overview / Tips & Tricks
Shurima's Legacy: This is Azir's passive skill which has two purposes. First is the real passive where he gains 1.25% attack speed for every 1% cooldown reduction you have. So the maximum bonus attack speed is 50% attack speed and 40% cooldown reduction. The second "passive" is the sun disc where you can right-click a destroyed lane tower and return it as if it was not destroyed.
Conquering Sands: This is his skill that can move or relocate his soldiers and damage enemies they go through and applies slow for a brief duration. This is definitely maxed first aside from Emperor's Divide.
Arise!: This is Azir's skill to summon soldiers and is the only available skill he can learn in level 1. The range is short but you can keep it from afar (I will confirm the range). Soldiers have vision so you can use them as temporary wards. Remember to keep one stack of soldier for utility purposes. Additionally, soldiers cannot attack enemy buildings and at the same time, they disappear quicker when near an enemy turret but you can attack enemies cowering under their tower with your soldiers and not get hit by the tower.
Shifting Sands: This is Azir's skill to relocate himself to one of his sand soldier. He stops when he bumps an enemy champion and gives him barrier that lasts for a few seconds. Good for interrupting channeling skills.
Emperor's Divide: The impassable wall of soldiers (you can't use your skills with these soldiers) that grants movement speed to you and your allies when you go through it like Jayce's Acceleration Gate and Anivia's Crystallize combined. This skill will block dashes but not blinks like Flash, Arcane Shift and the likes. Use this beside your AD Carry when you see from what direction the enemy assassin is coming so you can peel damage from assassins that aims for him. Casting this from an enemy LeBlanc's direction will peel a lot of damage from distort and make her turn around the wall first or back off. The wall becomes longer as rank increases.
- To maximize damage, cast Arise! near an enemy and hit them once with your auto attack. As soon as you hit them, immediately cast Q Conquering Sands on them then land another auto attack.
- Always keep a stack of soldier from Arise! to use in sticky situations. Either to use it as escape or use it for a sudden burst before casting Q Conquering Sands.
- Emperor's Divide is very useful against melee duels. Shove it on their face and push them to a corner. Go near your wall and harass the enemy with your Q Conquering Sands when he's going towards you and run pass your wall when he gets near so the enemy turns around the wall and you go through your wall again when he gets near. Repeat this until you munch his HP or kill him.
- Sand Soldiers can be used as ward so instead of face checking a brush, you can check with Arise! over a wall or by moving them with Conquering Sands.
- I recommend quick casting your skills because Azir is all about his soldiers and their mobility. Besides, high Cooldown Reduction means more skills to spam so why bother smashing your mouse. Display your range indicators to get the hang of it.
- Enemies champions hit with Shifting Sands and Emperor's Divide are knocked-up and will also benefit Yasuo's Last Breath.
Teamfights are different from the laning phase because this will require cooperation between allies and alertness on all of your enemies. Ideally, you would want to keep your distance from your enemies and hit them from afar. Dont be afraid to dish out tanks since you will most likely only be able to aim for them. Aim for melee champions like Master Yi, Fiora and Yasuo if in range and you can get near them as long as you wont get hit. Do keep in mind that assassins are after you or your AD Carry and you will be defenseless against their burst if neglected and would cost your team damage output. If the enemy assassin aims for you, Zhonya's Hourglass is a good option. If the assassin aims for your AD carry simply push them away or to your tanks with Emperor's Divide if needed.
The last think you would attempt to kill would most probably be their AD and AP Carries since they will also be keeping their distance from you but you can go for them as soon as the enemies going after you or your AD Carry won't be much of a threat anymore.
Overall, Azir is very fun to use with his very unique kit and gameplay. I do hope you learned a lot from my guide and I will update this as often as I can. I do appreciate feedbacks, criticisms and other opinions because I too am willing to learn from everyone and adjust accordingly. I will also update my match-ups as often as I can and will give more tips from what I experience against them. I again remind that this is a guide to how I best work with him and you are always free to change the build. I hope you find this guide very helpful in showing how fun it is to play as the Emperor of Shurima. Do remember that this is a game and it should be fun, and not all about winning and trash talks. Good day to all and have fun!

Re: Trent Weatherman jailed for public intox...
How about the name Long Truong from the list?
Re: Trent Weatherman jailed for public intox...
Middle name Duck?
Re: Trent Weatherman jailed for public intox...
Thats to bad but at the end of the day how many college kids do get busted for public intox? I hope he turns this into positve motivation and it serves as a wake up call for him to refocus on his wrestling career.
Re: Trent Weatherman jailed for public intox...
Here we go! (ala bud light)
Re: Trent Weatherman jailed for public intox...
At least he's of age and didn't have to pull out a fake ID like Long did repeatedly. He'll probably have to miss a meet at most or something.
Says Public Consumption, not intox
Am I missing something??
Re: Trent Weatherman jailed for public intox...
It says public consumption not intox.... edit
You get jailed for public consumption? Is that like an open container or something?
Shame on you Trent. That was very naughty of you. You need to go in the corner and think about what you have done. Then after that you can go out to play.
This could be as simple as sneaking a beer into the movie theatre. Who hasn't!
Um. People that aren't alcoholics and can go more than two hours without drinking?
Well, that was a ******* thing to do. I thought public consumption was just a ticket though, not something they hauled you in for.
I know in M'town it's just a city ordinance with a fine around $180 including court costs.
lol I saw him at Walmart earlier in the evening.
Iowa State wrestler Trent Weatherman arrested for public intoxication | The Des Moines Register | DesMoinesRegister.com
Register says it was public intox. Sounds like he was being a drunken idiot, though not on the level of Long. My guess is after what went down with Long last year he'll get a pretty severe internal penalty, and probably miss a few meets to start the season, probably either up until the Iowa meet or until just after the Iowa meet. But as long as he doesn't have any further issues I think that would be sufficent.
Maybe he should drink before meets, bring a little bit of that aggression to the mat and be better than a .500 wrestler.
maybe I'm a softy, but at 2:15 am on Welch ave, who ISNT intoxicated
there's a big difference between being intoxicated and being a drunken idiot.
yea a stumble constitutes being a drunken idiot

The 13 Spring Fashion Trends You're About To See Everywhere
18/08/2015 12:59 AM AEST | Updated 15/07/2016 12:50 PM AEST
Leigh Campbell Head of Lifestyle, HuffPost Australia
Birds are chirping, flowers are blooming and the stores are filling up with new season wares. It's Spring! While we might not have their bodies or bank accounts, we can take cue from the stars of social media as to what's about to hit the shops.
Sundresses with sneakers. Styled to off-duty perfection by Miranda Kerr. BYO Vespa.
Bell sleeves. As modelled by Leandra Medine of Man Repeller in our own home-grown label Ellery.
Brimmed hats. Along with pajama dressing and distressed denim. Leave it to Chiara Ferragni to pull off three trends at once. 4.3 million Instagram followers can't be wrong.
Off-the-shoulder sleeves. Trust one of Australia's most chic fashion icons Nicole Warne of Gary Pepper Girl to show us how to expose just the right amount of shoulder.
Summer leather. Model Anja Rubik perfectly points out that leather need not be only for warmth.
Lace-up Tops. One half of Aussie blogging duo Tash Sefton of They All Hate Us demonstrates how to do the lace-up top with total class.
All of the denim. Olivia Palermo and her pal prove that double denim is a 'do'. Add a classic pump to dress it up.
White jeans. Our own Ashley Hart makes us want to wear white jeans. Pair them with your chambray shirt and all denim bases are covered.
Lace-up shoes. Don't think trainers -- think ballet flats and pumps featuring leather lace-up details. Elle Ferguson, the other half of They All Hate Us combines it with fringing which of course, is also huge this season.
Belting. Cinch-in anything that calls for a more feminine silhouette, just like Aussie Instagram darling Margaret Zhang.

i gave up on Arch Linux 3 hours after i got into it. At that point, i already managed to get myself into the wonderful KDE 4.3 desktop environment, but it was just so much effort for a relatively insignificant payoff that i abandoned ship and went back to Fedora 10.
Guess you could say that Windows (Vista and Win 7) and installer-based distros have spoilt me up to the point where i expect an OS to be up and kicking within 30 minutes. And adding on another 10 minutes to download and install the latest proprietary drivers from Ralink and ATI/Nvidia .

IMO the biggest hurdle to new linux users is the perception that it takes hours and hours to configure linux. Typical users just want a quick install and go-to-work OS. That's also why a lot of users first come to linux through Ubuntu.

If you want a kde desktop then I would suggest PClinuxOS but for gnome either Ubuntu or Mint.

I've been pretty happy with Ubuntu as a simple distro which you can get up-and-running quickly. Mind you, that's from someone who used Gentoo as a desktop distro for yearsStumbling around the 'net:

I voted for Ubuntu. When I started using Linux in Nov. 2009, I decided to try Ubuntu after reading and informing myself about the many distros for a month. It's easy to use if you're used to MS Windows, and I dare say that it's a good OS/distro for anyone completely new to computers in general.
By now I've tried a few other distros as well (Lucid Linux, Zenwalk, DSL, anti-X), and I still find Ubuntu to be the easiest one to install, configure, maintain, and use.

openSUSE or Mandriva
I think openSUSE or Mandriva as they both have central config tools (YaST and MCC) which make it easy for new users to set up their computer

Have been using Linux for over 10 years and have tried most distros. My first was with Corel Linux. However the version I am most happier with is Ubuntu (any flavour).Their repository and install setup is hard to beat and best of all the support from ubuntu forums is tops. For a beginner converting from Windows try a version based on ubuntu and made to resemble windows Ylmf OS-YlmF Operating System

That looks impressively like XP which could be counter-productive in that new users will expect it to work like XP as well and that could cause frustration when it doesn't. I like the look of some of the other themes though. Sadly, clicking through to have a look gives a 403Should you be sitting wondering,

I just installed Pinguy on my daughters computer and it is very user friendly. Everything worked right out of the box. Even flash and youtube with sound.
It is not intuitive to find things that are not on the desktop but it is pretty easy to find them without reading instructions.

Family Therapy-Just Once
3 July 2016
Just Once My sister Riley is SO FUCKING HOT!!! I've been wanting to fuck her for awhile now, but today I finally grew some balls and did it. Our parents went out of town this morning for a couple days, so it was just me and my little sister. I totally perved on her getting out of the shower, I was jerking off too. I told her to chill out but she screamed at me and told me to get out. Then she was changing in her room and I snuck up behind her and grabbed her butthole! She freaked out again and called me a pervert. Later that night I crept up and tried to kiss her while she was sitting on the couch in the basement.
She told me I was sick and I was acting crazy. I tried to explain to her that she's really hot, and that I really wanted to fuck her, and our parents were out of town. I told her we could fuck just once and I'd get it out of my system and then I'd leave her alone. I even told her about all the taboo porn I've been watching on the internet lately and that it's not that big of a deal these days for a brother and sister to fuck each other. She didn't think any of those where good reasons for us to have sex. But she changed her mind when I told her I took pictures of her FUCKING HERSELF WITH A BIG BLACK DILDO and I was going to post them on Facebook if she didn't let me fuck her. She agreed that we could do it just one time, as long as we kept it a secret. SO I TOTALLY DICKED DOWN MY LITTLE SISTER!!! I fucked her like a filthy whore, because I know she secretly is one. And she even started to like it by the end, that is until I BUSTED A HUGE NUT INSIDE HER PUSSY!!! She freaked out and said she wasn't on birth control. I told her to just take a shower and she'd be fine, she disagreed. So I guess my little sister is pretty mad at me.... Whatever...she's a bitch anyway.... I THOUGHT IT WAS FUCKING AWESOME!!! ***Starring Riley Reynolds & a REAL creampie from her sick twisted brother***

Kernan holds out hope for Connolly as Fenton ruled out for owing to shoulder surgery
Joe Kernan remains hopeful that Diarmuid Connolly will play for Ireland in this year's International Rules Series.
Connolly, who captains St Vincent's in Sunday's Dublin SFC final against Ballyboden, has not been part of any of the Ireland training sessions conducted thus far, though he has had discussions with both Kernan and team captain, Bernard Brogan, and both have indicated that he is interested in playing in what would be his first International Rules involvement.
Essentially, it appears that Connolly participation hinges on Vincent's progress over the coming weeks.
Should they win on Sunday, Vincent's will play Louth champions St Patrick's in the Leinster club SFC quarter-final on November 8 where a victory would have them out again on November 22 in the provincial semi-final, a day after the only International Rules Test in Croke Park.
"We are leaving the door open as long as we can and hoping we can finalise the squad then," Kernan outlined.
No better
"A player of Diarmuid's quality would really suit this game because we want to kick the ball and there is no better player in the country at kicking the ball right or left than him and maybe throw in a few scores along with that.
"But he is captain of his club and it's a big commitment so we'll know in the next week or so."
Brogan outlined that he had spoken to Connolly and suggested that his involvement wouldn't necessarily be dictated by Sunday's result.
"I wouldn't say he will just say 'no' if they do win," Brogan stated.
"We'll just have to look at it. You have to be fair to everyone that has been training with Ireland as well, you can't just turn up on the day, you have to come in, learn the systems and learn the tactics as well."
One Dublin player who definitely won't be involved is All-Ireland final RTé Man of the Match, Brian Fenton.
The Raheny rookie had been part of an extended training squad, though he recently underwent surgery on his shoulder and won't play again this year.
"He thought it was okay and he played a club match," Kernan outlined.
"It's only minor but in fairness to his club and county - the boys are getting things sorted out now and they want it sorted before Christmas and that means they will be fully recovered for the new year and they are able to play with their county.
"You can plan for everything but you can't plan for injuries. It's a simple procedure but it knocked him away from us."
Jack McCaffrey and Philly McMahon have taken part in training and look set to make the final cut when Kernan settles on a playing panel in the coming weeks.
"In fairness to the clubs and the players we have worked with them and given boys time off but it is coming to the time now which will be our time to finalise the squad," Kernan added.

I just picked up my new toy, its the camo stock version.
I've got one myself got a great deal off a buddy who won it and didn't have a use for it. Unfortunately I have yet to get out and make some fur fly. Good Luck to ya!
Not with you shooting it, they'll keep on rolling
Congrats man, enjoy that thing!!!
Congrats, I've had one since Christmas. It is an impressive rifle, but comes with a horrible trigger. Fortunately, it is a 15minute fix. All you have to do is trim the trigger spring and you can get it down to just over 3 pounds. Have fun!

Fitch Ratings cast doubt Friday on the budget discipline pact European states intend to adopt being able to solve the eurozone debt crisis, and warned it may soon downgrade six countries, including Spain and Italy. Also Friday, Moody's ratings agency took action against a eurozone member, downgrading Belgium's credit rating by two notches. Fitch also changed the outlook on France's top triple-A rating to negative. "Fitch has concluded that a 'comprehensive solution' to the eurozone crisis is technically and politically beyond reach," following the crisis summit last week at which the pact was announced, it said. All EU states except for Britain agreed last week to draft a strict pact with penalties to ensure they cut budget deficits and reduce their debt, aiming to get it drafted and signed by March. While Fitch praised announcements that private bond holders would no longer be asked to accept losses in bailouts and the eurozone's permanent bailout fund would be brought into operation sooner, it expressed concerned over the absence of a credible financial backstop. "In Fitch's opinion this requires more active and explicit commitment from the ECB to mitigate the risk of self-fulfilling liquidity crises for potentially illiquid but solvent Euro Area Member States (EAMS)," it said in a statement. The European Central Bank, strongly supported by Germany, has resisted stepping up its limited purchases of bonds of eurozone states, let alone explicitly taking on the role of a lender of last resort to governments. While the markets have welcomed the idea of the fiscal pact to help lock in budget discipline in the medium-term, they have been looking for stepped up involvement by the ECB to calm fears that countries like Italy and Spain will be driven by high borrowing costs into needing bailouts. "In the absence of a 'comprehensive solution', the crisis will persist and likely be punctuated by episodes of severe financial market volatility," said Fitch. It warned that such market volatility "is a particular source of risk to the sovereign governments of those countries with levels of public debt, contingent liabilities and fiscal and financial sector financing needs that are high relative to rating peers." Meanwhile, Moody's, citing too tough conditions for indebted European countries to borrow with little chance of a quick end to the eurozone crisis, cut the credit rating of Belgium by two notches, from Aa1 to Aa3, with a negative outlook. "The first driver underlying Moody's decision to downgrade Belgium's debt rating is the fragile sentiment surrounding sovereign risk in the euro area," the agency said. "The fragility of the sovereign debt markets is increasingly entrenched and unlikely to be reversed in the near future," it said. Fitch said it was reviewing for possible downgrade the credit ratings of six eurozone countries facing such higher risks. Placing Belgium, Spain, Slovenia, Italy, Ireland and Cyprus on Ratings Watch Negative "indicates that the above ratings are under active review and are subject to a heightened probability of downgrade in the near-term," said Fitch. It added that any downgrades of ratings would likely be limited to one or two notches and that it expects to make decisions by the end of January. Belgium currently has an AA+ rating from Fitch, Spain AA-, Slovenia AA-, Italy A+, Ireland BBB+, and Cyprus BBB. While affirming France's triple-A rating, Fitch revised its long-term outlook on the rating to "negative" from "stable", although this does not signify the rating is under review. "The intensification of the eurozone crisis since July constitutes a significant negative shock to the region and to France's economy and the stability of its financial sector," Fitch said in a statement. France's national statistics agency said Thursday the country has likely entered a shallow recession that will last through the first quarter of next year. France's top rating was under more immediate threat from Standard & Poor's, which has said it plans to quickly review for possible downgrade the ratings of most eurozone countries following its evaluation of measures announced at the summit. The third major ratings agency, has also announced it is reviewing its ratings of European countries.

Sakura Haruno Fic Recommendations
I'm an admitted serial Sakura shipper. If there's a single man in Konoha (or outside of it), you can almost bet I'll find a way to somehow ship them. But honestly, even if I don't necessarily ship them, I may find the story beautiful and put it here for others who ship them. Most are in the Naruto-verse but will be stated otherwise if not.
Most, if not all, are Rated M. So be warned that almost all of them contain smut/adult content of some kind. I'm trying to branch out and read things that don't contain smut but it's a little challenging. I like steamy reads.
Happy Reading!
