Hi I have visited Ian for consultation a while back. I will say he was extremely helpful and done all he could to assist me in making a decision right for me . I want to go ahead with treatment but i am still getting days where i am feeling nervous about what i am about to do. I have looked at Ians hair and the photo's on here and it does look really good. However i would like to meet someone else who has had the treatment just to put my mind at ease that i am doing the right thing for me. I am based in North London and am wondering if anyone is willing to meet up that has had it done and put my mind at rest? Just want to get rid of the final jitters and get it done and get on with my life. Many thanks
Help/advice needed

Hi Terry welcome to the forum. Don't be suprised that you are nervous as anybody who said they were not would be telling fibs. Its a massive step for anybody so you are not alone. I had my consultation with Ian back in May and I was that impressed with what I saw and what I was told that I booked in for June. The days and weeks leading up to the treatment I was a bag of nerves and contemplated a couple of times not going ahead. However I did and am very glad I did so. There is section on the forum "Arranging to meet" where you can request a meet up with clients. Im sure there will be quite a number in the London/South region who would be willing to meet. Anyway good luck and if you are happy to have a shaved/clipped look then this treatment is amazing. Let us no how you get on. Damon
Had my treatment in Birmingham 2010

Terry, did you get the treatment done? And if so, how do you feel about it now?

Public Schools are Resegregating
January 21, 2003
More students attend segregated public schools now than at any time since the late 1960s, despite decades of court-ordered busing and school oversight, research shows.
In "A Multiracial Society with Segregated Schools: Are We Losing the Dream?" the Civil Rights Project at Harvard University says more than 70 percent of black students and nearly 76 percent of Latino students nationwide now attend predominantly minority schools.
Looking at more than 30 years of data, the report says the South made the most desegregation gains, moving from "virtual apartheid in the early 1960s to become the nation's most integrated region." Now, however, public schools are becoming resegregated, especially in the South. According to the report:
- Nationally, white students are the most segregated group in the country, with the average white student attending a school that is 80 percent white.
- Just 31 percent of black students attend majority white schools today, compared to 43.5 percent in 1988.
- Asians are the most integrated group, living in integrated neighborhoods and attending racially mixed schools.
- Suburban populations are becoming more diverse, but patterns of segregation are cropping up in those school districts.
The report concludes that resegregation is occurring because of changes in the racial makeup of communities and school-age children, and changes in the desegregation plans.
Several critics, however, question the report's analysis and conclusions given what is happening demographically. They point to the fact that higher income white and black families have moved to the suburbs or their children attend private schools. Says Stephan Thernstrom of the Manhattan Institute, "There are not enough white students to go around..." to racially balance urban schools.

Hadnot and Scott Parks, "Public schools resegregating, research finds," Dallas Morning News, January 19, 2003; based on Erica Frankenberg, Chungmei Lee, and Professor Gary Orfield, "A Multiracial Society with Segregated Schools: Are We Losing the Dream?"

Loved by generations of devoted fans, She Who Runs the Waves stands as one of the most famous and well-received science fiction novels of Russian author Alexander Grin (1880-1932). Grin, who has a peculiar history of being nationally adored and internationally ignored, is at his best here. With its fanciful descriptions of whimsical landscapes, She Who Runs the Waves is undoubtedly the work of an imagination that knew no bounds.

Policies and Procedures
Policy 903 – Fringe Benefits
January 11, 2012
October 1, 2014
October 1, 2014
Director of Budget Office
Budget Office
Policy Statement
Fringe benefits (fringes) are expenses directly related to an employee's salaries and wages. The type of salary or wage being paid will determine the type of fringes that apply. Fringes are required to be budgeted on all personnel dollars for personnel accounts from 511100-514500.
The Budget Office maintains the Central Fringe Pool (Fringe Pool). The Fringe Pool provides budget for all state appropriated funds (Appropriations) for fringes for personnel accounts (511100-514500). Fringes that are covered by the Fringe Pool are SPA Premium Payments (512300), SPA Longevity Payments (512700), Retirement Supplement (552320), Disability (516200), Social Security (515100); State Retirement (515200); medical insurance (515500); TIAA Retirement (515400); Law Officers Retirement (515300).
Reason for Policy
Adequate fringe budget must be maintained by the department to meet full funding requirements of University employee salaries which includes fringe benefits.
The major benefit to the department of the central fringe pool is that the budget is not maintained by the department for state appropriated funds. It allows the University to fund changes in fringe rates without processing budget entries to every University chartfield string. When new rates apply, the pool automatically adjusts the amount of budget the account receives at month end.
A secondary benefit to departments is that the central fringe pool covers accounts 512300, 512700, 515400 and 516200 without departmental contribution. These accounts are covered using lapsed fringes within the fringe pool. Fringes associated with lapsed salaries are not returned to the department.
All other non-state funding sources are responsible for associated fringe benefits and other salary compensation expenses.
Special Situations
If a position is abolished and the department can prove that it contributed fringes to the pool for that position, the fringes (at current year rates) will be returned to the department.

- 903.2 – Budgeting for Fringe Benefits
- 903.3 – Reconciling Fringe Benefits
Additional Information
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: I am using a state source and creating a budget revision that involves new personnel budget; do I need to budget for fringes?
A: Yes. If you are bringing in new salary dollars you must contribute additional fringes to the pool. If the salary dollars are not new (transferring personnel dollars to personnel dollars) then you will need to consider whether the retirement rate will change based on the new personnel line and bring in additional retirement as needed.
Q: Is there a central Fringe Pool for non-state sources?
A: No.
Q: I submitted a budget revision to increase my fringe accounts, but when the budget revision posted, my fringe accounts did not increase.
A: The increase to fringes was taken from your Department's chartfield string to the fringe pool. View the Budget Journal ID in ConnectCarolina's Commitment Control and you will see that the lines containing fringes were changed to fund the central Fringe Pool chartfield string.
Related Data
A chart with the current applicable fringe benefit rates is available on the Budget Office webpage. These rates pertain to State and F&A funds budgeting only.
Rates that should be used for Grants are available from the Office of Sponsored Research website.

Milan, Sept. 25: Milano Moda Donna threw its arms open, wide open, for Sabyasachi Mukherjee today. The fashion week ramp in Milan ' widely considered the pr't capital of the world ' exploded with the Calcutta designer's understated expression of India, shocking an audience expecting saris and bright colours with a vintage collection bursting at the seams with colour and texture.
'Ah, a new flavour!' was the cry of delight from the press corps after the afternoon show. They had watched for just under 20 minutes, with visible delight, chic heads bobbing up and down in approval as models walked the ramp to familiar tunes of the violin, interspersed with the less familiar (to this room, at least) sounds of 'chai-coffee' at the train station, taxi horns on Howrah bridge and the jingle of handcart bells.
The look ' 'English Mary Jane meets French Lolita in Madarpur station' is how the designer describes it ' hit the sweet spot. A troupe of reporters from Italian fashion magazines made a beeline backstage to find out where they could buy his clothes from.
'You were really the top, we would like to buy everything,' gushed Emmanuela Beretta from La Seta, a fashion magazine.
While one fashion journalist felt that the collection could be a little difficult for the average Milan buyer to accept easily ' 'but only because it is different' ' the city, she added, is always on the lookout for a new look. 'It is completely novel, the colours and textures are simply amazing!' she said.
If the media were won over, the real judges ' the buyers ' also appeared enthused. 'One of the biggest head-hunters for Italian fashion houses was asking where he could meet you. He was talking about distribution,' an Asia Week official told Sabyasachi backstage.
After the enthusiastic reception from world buyers at the India Fashion Week this year, which won him space in Browns in London, the Milan conquest may not have come as a surprise for everyone, the designer included.
'I knew it would go well,' said an exhausted, drained and happy Sabyasachi minutes after the show. 'The war is over,' he smiled.
Months of slog that had gone into the 31 ensembles hitting the ramp was over in a heartbeat, but the effect could last a long, long time.
'My name is up there,' the nervous designer had pointed out while walking into the sprawling venue before the 3.30 pm show. He had been calm all morning, strolling around the sun-kissed city, finishing some last-minute shopping for the girls' accessories, which apart from the jewellery, also involved fresh baguettes, chocolate and flowers.
Minutes before the big show, the excitement had got to him at last. But as it turned out, the jitters were unwarranted. Milan simply loved him.
Sabyasachi ' or Pepsi or Sabya ' will be exhibiting his clothes at a trade show organised as part of the Asia Week here. With the number of enquiries coming in, that may prove crucial ground for real business to be conducted.

Bravos, buffalo chip to hand out this week
The Jamestown Sun hands out these bravos and a buffalo chip this week:
* Bravo to the organizers of CarFit, a program that helps motorists make sure they "fit" into the vehicles they drive. We take for granted that we're correctly "fitting" ourselves to our vehicles before we drive. The program consists of making sure there's enough distance between the driver's chest and the steering wheel, line of sight and the driver being close enough to the pedals, and checking such items as turn signals, headlights and emergency flashers.
* Bravo to Bernard Kordonowy, who found Ranger, the dog missing since an accident on Aug. 25 that killed one of his owners, Jerry Roper, of Lake City, Minn. Roper, his wife, Celeste, and the dog were traveling on Interstate 94 when the accident happened. Kordonowy found the dog near Medora on Oct. 1, contacted a Minnesota veterinarian located from the dog's rabies tag, and then got in touch with the Roper's daughter. The family was thrilled to learn the dog had been found.
* Bravo to efforts to save funding for a suicide prevention program for the Standing Rock Sioux. Federal and tribal officials worked together after a federal grant was denied. The tribe will now apply to the federal Substance, Abuse and Mental Health Service Administration for an emergency grant.
* Buffalo chip to the person or persons responsible for a burglary at Lincoln Elementary School that occurred between Sept. 25-28. A laptop computer was stolen.
* Bravo to Jim Carlascio, Jamestown resident who was named one of six Hometown Heroes in North Dakota. Carlascio received the award during the North Dakota League of Cities annual conference last month in Minot. He was recognized for service to the community and nation. His efforts include visits to veterans at the North Dakota Veterans Home, being active in various veterans' organizations, working to raise funds for the veterans' memorial at Fort Seward and (dressed as Santa) visiting nursing homes and businesses.
* Bravo to Warren Tobin, Jamestown, for being recognized with the American Legion and Scouting Square Knot Award at the American Legions' district meeting. Tobin received the award for his achievements as an adult leader in Boy Scouts and in Legion programs.
* Bravo to Laura Kraft for winning the North Dakota state girls' golf tournament for the second year in a row. The Jamestown High School junior is the first person to win two individual titles in a row since 1997 and 1998.
* Bravo to the start of the school resource officer position at Jamestown Public Schools. Nick Hardy, the first police officer in this position, will work with the public schools at all levels to build trust with students and lessen calls to the schools.
* Bravo to Helen Hample, 95-year-old Jamestown resident who was recognized (again) by Jamestown College on the 75th anniversary of being named homecoming queen at the college.
* Bravo to Vicki and Robert Thu of Jamestown for being nominated for a federal Angels in Adoption award. The two have adopted nine children and fostered 75 over the years. They were nominated for the award by Rep. Earl Pomeroy, D-N.D.
(Editorials are the opinion of Jamestown Sun management and the newspaper's editorial board)

It's actually been a while since I listened to anything symphonic, and Njord by Leaves' Eyes makes me glad to be back. It's a different beast altogether from Liv Kristine's first project Theatre of Tragedy, but I actually think that I like this better. Something about it just appeals to me more.
The thing that I notice more than anything else here is that the growls are sparsely used. I'd expected it to be a fifty-fifty split like with Theatre of Tragedy, but actually Liv does most of the vocals here. Alexander Krull only very occasionally growls, a number of tracks not even featuring him at all. And actually I'm glad, because Liv seems to have developed a lot as a singer and she has a lovely voice with a far larger range than I thought. Alexander doesn't need to balance out the vocal approach, it's absolutely fine as it is. Plus,he kind of sucks as a vocalist.
The guitars in the background have a surprising force to them, which I wasn't expecting. I thought that I'd get a very synth-orientated album (and I guess I was right in some respects) with minimalist guitar work, but when they come into the action they provide a very strong backing for the rest of the band. Admittedly there are plenty of long gaps with no guitar or bass and it's mostly a few simple chords, but I'm still impressed with the power. The drumming though sounds very distant and doesn't really add to the music. It's hardly noticeable, but if you listen closely you can hear the basic plodding that is a feature of so many symphonic and gothic metal bands. I'm glad that they're buried behind everything else really.
Going back to the synths, they're always present here. They do different things, from gentle tinkering that reminds me of 'Floods' by Abigail Williams (deathcore, I know, but those synths were epic) to stuff that's more reminiscent of what Imperia did on their last album. It's very varied and really adds something to the album, giving the album the Nordic feel that the title suggests it will have while also adding some folk to the symphonic metal. Alex's work here more than makes up for his awful growls.
It's damn near impossible to decide which track is best, because everything on this album is of an incredibly high standard. You have the intense epic that is the title-track, the more folk orientated 'Scarborough Fair', a couple of softer tracks like 'The Holy Bond' and 'Take the Devil in Me' and just about everything in-between. And none of it dips in standard at all. Choosing a favourite depends as much on what mood you're in as it does with the actual quality of the song.
All in all this is one of the best symphonic releases I've ever had the pleasure of listening to, and it's a safe bet that I will be back to review more of Leaves' Eyes' releases. If they're anywhere near the quality of this album, it'll be time well spent.
2009, a year that was promising for German/Norweigian symphonic folk metal band "Leaves' Eyes", that year they released their only full-length album in four years. The sound is nice and beautiful but some parts of the music are smothered by others. Liv's vocals are a highlight of the sound but are often covered up by the other instruments or take the roll of a backing instruments, which is very different than many bands where the instruments are put far behind the vocals. But with time I've learned to make out the vocal lines to make a perfect balance. The guitars are heavy and are very audible and the riffs are good, these guitars are perfectly balanced out with beautiful orchestral parts.
The reason I titled this "a Little Weak", was because at first I thought that so many parts the music fall flat. The chorus for the title track is very epic, but that was about it. But again with time I came to appreciate what this band was doing. There are many epic parts, but not the same kind of epicness. "Leaves' Eyes" rarely has what I call "Within Temptation Moments", where the symphonic parts have this giant epic bridge that sounds amazing. The second track "My Destiny" has a different epic approach. The guitars are catchy and the chorus is also very beautiful, just like a lot of the parts through out the album.
Other flaws other than thoes already brought up, the only thing I can think of are the male growls. The only sounded good in the opening track during the chorus, Alexander's occasional "njord" gave a little attitude, but this form of song writing quickly became over-used. This album is not the best album, but if you liked this band's earlier work, you'll probably still fall in love with it. But, if you're like me and didn't actually get into "Leaves' Eyes" until later, who knows.
Highlights: Njord, Our Destiny, Scarbarough Fair, and Through Our Veins
After two really powerful albums, Leaves' Eyes return to the spotlight once more with their third full length studio release, Njord, which took it's sweet ass time to make it over here to the States (September 29th). The interesting thing about this group was that it was essentially the band Atrocity with Liv Kristine as the vocalist due to the events in Theatre Of Tragedy and her marriage to Alexander Krull. Well, the thing is that the band had a bit of a line-up change in 2008. Knowing this, was it really worth being the last country on the long list of release dates to finally obtain this release?
Njord is easily a release that will have you cursing up a storm, but not because it's an awful CD. It seriously has the potential to be a masterpiece, but unfortunately it just doesn't quite make it there. Put simply, the band is really at their best on this release most of the time. Liv's vocals are perhaps the strongest they have ever been, which is spectacular because the music on this release reaches moments where you'll think you are listening to some sort of metal infused opera. While the album doesn't quite hit the ground running with the openning track "Njord", it starts to pick up around "Emerald Island", which is just a powerhouse of a song that destroys anything that this band has done in the past with it's beautiful operatic sounds.
Now, this is where the album starts to make you want to pull your hair out, and you'll notice it earlier one. Njord seems to really be missing some of the Nordic sound and appeal that the previous album had, with the exception of "The Holy Bond", and also is missing some of the nice, powerful guitar riffs that come in during the chorus to really tug at your emotions. That's not to say the music is bad, it just comes across as a slightly different route the band is taking, while trying to keep the same lyrical content as Vinland Saga. While this isn't enough to make you wanna pull the hair from your skull, the male vocals through the album definitely will. Instead of doing some decent gutteral in random spots, Alexander tries to vary his voice a bit, even does a failed gutteral shout during "My Destiny" and "Ragnarok, which winds up ruining them. Unfortunately this really does make and break some of the songs on the release, especially since they are absolutely pointless for this release in the first place.
The band's cover of the Simon And Garfunkel track "Scarborough Fair" is a pretty nice cover, but it just doesn't quite seem to fit in with the rest of the album. "Through Our Veins" is a great song, but about the time you hit "Irish Rain", pretty much the rest of the album sounds like your typical Leaves' Eyes, which is good considering some of the more epic-sounding tracks include some random gutteral in the background that doesn't really do much to aid the songs. If the band had made more epic operatic opuses like "Emerald Island", or focused on slower paced ballad-esque tracks like "Morgenland", or even tracks like "Scarborough Fair" for that matter, this release would definitely be one of 2009's most noted releases. Given how the band keeps growing with every release, perhaps we'll see more powerhouse material such as those tracks, but for now, Njord may have some flaws here and there, some tracks having more an impact then others, but either way is a release you can take comfort in knowing that you are going to enjoy.

Wild Ginger Seattle Ratings and Reviews
We had the nam rolls, tofu skewers, and passion tofu. The first two were mediocre to bad while also being overpriced for the amount of food you got. The rolls were $9 for three little fresh rolls literally the size of my thumb. The skewers for whatever reason featured raw squash (!), and the little rice block that came with it was the worst tasting rice I have ever had (did not even know that was possible). The passion tofu was really good and full-sized, though, which made up for the lousy appetizers.
We had a reservation for 6:30 and weren't sat for over 40mins which mean we had to scarf out food to make our Seattle Symphony event. I made a reservation to make sure we wouldn't have to rush but it didn't happen. They apologized and gave us a couple free drinks but we almost missed the opening of our show.
Have been to Wild Ginger several times. (Including dining on their food downstairs in the Triple Door/Musicquarium.) Ambiance is a strange mix of dark and cozy mashed up with nearly nightclub-loud conversational decibel levels.
Food is fairly predictable. But, in a good way. It won't dazzle; but it never fails to satisfy. (For instance, I don't know what factory churns out their dumpling/potstickers, but they should be commended for consistently producing something so outstandingly substantial and delicious.) Menu has a little something for everyone. (Vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, carnivore, etc.) If you are in the mood for some well-seasoned Pan-Asian fare, that tastes almost exactly what you expect to taste like, then you can probably do no better than Wild Ginger.
Of special note... The cocktails are some of the strongest and best that I have had in the city. If you prefer your drinks watered-down, you should probably go elsewhere. Because these ones have a kick!
We were quite disappointed that many of the old time favorites are no longer on the menu and the choices are much more limited. The green beans and duck were excellent as always but disappointed in the mongolian noodles and the tuna "bruschetta" appetizer. This used to be a place I really looked forward to going to but it might be a while before I go back.
Very disappointing. Cocktails were not good, one we had to send back the others weren't mixed properly. Food delivery was very uneven (two dishes were significantly delayed and delivered when we were almost done). Mandarin chicken was poor quality (and it's our favorite dish thus we've had previously). Wine (white) was luke warm. This used to be a go to place for our family for celebratory dinners but we likely won't be back. The quality has declined significantly in lock step with prices rising meaningfully.
This was my first seattle restaurant from 8 years ago! So much that I chose this to be my 1st anniversary dinner, even called it out in the reservation, but alas the service was really poor (the waitress didn't even ask how the food was for the first 30 minutes after serving us, and took ~20 minutes to even get our drinks ordered). I'm hoping this was just a one-off because I'll be saddened to see one of my favorite asian / thai food places go down like this :-(. Additionally, I had called out in the reservation that it's our anniversary, but they didn't even inquire about anything special they could do.
The food and service were excellent as always but as someone outside the main door to the restaurant set off an entire container of pepper spray, all diners were affected and the restaurant emptied out for health reasons. Overall not a good experience. I will definitely go back though hoping that never happens again.
Always enjoy the food selections at Wild Ginger. Our waiter was attentive and enjoyable.
The food was all exceptional in flavor and presentation. Since it's been awhile since I've eaten in downtown Seattle, I was a bit surprised at the prices of the items on the menu.
Wild Ginger never fails!!! Our waiter Vincente was wonderful as he helped me with my specific dietary needs and actually made a "special sauce" to accommodate my goals. All his suggestions were spot on and he totally "got it" and made for a fabulous dining experience!!! It's always our go to place when visiting the Seattle area and can't wait for our next visit there!!!
Wild Ginger seems to have outlived its reputation as a great place to take out of town guests for good Asian fusion cuisine. The food used to be so good, now it's only passable. Not sure why it's still popular. We used to love it, but there are many other great places to go in Seattle and this one's no longer on our list. A real disappointment.
We were there celebrating a work anniversary for a co-worker, and we wanted something that wasn't on the regular menu (it was a special that wasn't currently on the menu). The waitress double checked with the kitchen and we were able to order it. Great service and food!
We have eaten here several times for 3/for/xx and from the regular menu, and always rated the food as 5 stars. This time it was 3/for/xx and they were not up to the task. We participated in 3/for/xx at five places this year and would rate Wild Ginger last in food quality and portions. The starter I had was 2 large bites, while the main course was three dry, over-cooked shrimp and some greens. I ordered a bowl of rice or would have left hungry. Most places try to high-light their special skills during 3/for/xx. W G seemed a reluctant participant. We will return though as their track record with us is quite high.
Always an outstanding choice when in Seattle. They consistently deliver outstanding food, good service in a great location. Whether you're visiting Seattle, attending the theater or looking for a great place to eat, Wild Ginger should always be a must visit.
More like "wildly over-priced & over-rated." Food quality was not terrible, but only on-par with asian-fusion take-out quality. But the prices...yow! Totally not worth it. We also got stuck with a terrible waiter who never returned to the table, brought food at odd intervals that didn't match,and we had to constantly try to flag him down. Also, had a cocktail that was pretty terrible. It was an Old Fashioned, which any bartender should be able to do well. It was bitter and tasteless and was likely cheap well whiskey. Also, a weird thing we all remarked about is the seats are quite uncomfortable and force you to sit at an odd, slightly laid-back angle, which is awkward for eating. We will not return nor recommend it to anyone.
The meal was great. Our waiter was friendly and had a great sense of humor. He was professional and kept an eye on us although he was quite busy. Speaking of busy, it was quite busy when we arrived and the noise level was high. the first hostess sort of rolled her eyes when the hostess she had seat us came back with us. The noise was so loud and carried up and I did not want to sit on the second story as my husband is hard of hearing. I explained this to both hostesses. So the first hostess had the second take us to the bar area - again, a little too loud. Third time was a charm when the second hostess took us to the dining room side which had 4 or 5 free tables. It was cooler and more comfortable as far as temperature and the noise level was good for conversation. The food and the waiter saved this restaurant's rating for me.

Houston (Texas) Bellaire wide receiver Devin Lauderdale was one of several players on the docket to attend Texas Tech's spring game but missed out, including Houston (Texas) Sharpstown inside linebacker Reggie Chevis, Manvel (Texas) cornerback and fellow Tech commit Tavares Garner, and Houston (Texas) Yates running back Arthur Lockett.
The foursome drove together on their initial trek out to Lubbock, but got lost on the way. Lauderdale said that the group believed they knew the way to the Hub City, but didn't use a GPS and ended up in East Texas. The same players do, however, intend on visiting the Hub City before the spring is over.
"(We) didn't use a GPS, and we didn't even know we were going the wrong way. So we were driving (and we ended up) in East Texas," he said. "We're (still going to) go down there this spring."
Article Continues Below
Lauderdale has been in contact with several member of the Red Raider staff regularly, including running backs coach Chad Scott and defensive line coach Robert Prunty.
"I talk to a lot of them. I talk to Chad Scott," he said. "We talk about random things. He makes me feel like family.
"Robert Prunty, he's very cool, too. He's a straight up guy. He's a straight up kind of guy, and he's real cool."
With a recent bevy of offers coming his way, many thought Lauderdale might be wavering from his commitment to Tech. While he isn't 100 percent, the wideout said that he is very solid with the Red Raiders.
"I'd say like 85 percent," he said. "It's because Texas Tech, it really fits me. Especially because they throw the ball a lot, and I'm a receiver. They throw the ball a lot, and I want to go to a school that I can actually get the ball in my hands and be (deadly) with the ball."
The Rivals 250 receiver is happy with football right now. His recruitment couldn't be going better, and he's ready to get back to the grind of spring ball.
"Everything's going great. I have a lot more offers. Everything is going fine," he said. "We start spring football in two more weeks. I'm very excited to get these pads on again."
Lauderdale committed to Tech in February over offers from Alabama, Colorado, Baylor, Notre Dame, TCU, and Texas A&M.

Lemon essential oil is one of the best starter oils. There are endless uses of how to use lemon essential oil in your life. You can practically use it on a daily basis!
Lemon essential oil is one of the best starter oils, and I use it almost every day! I use it in my allergy remedies and in my water sometimes, there are just so many amazing uses for lemon essential oil! If you're not quite sure what to do with your lemon essential oil, check out these 10 uses for lemon essential oil.
Removes Laundry Odors
Lemon essential oil works great for taking out laundry odors, especially those caused by leaving your load in the washer too long.
Works as a Disinfectant
Add lemon essential oil to a spray bottle of water, and attack anything from your table tops and your counters, to any other surfaces. Add a little vinegar to add some chemical-free firepower.
Polish Silver
If you need to polish your silver, look no further than lemon essential oil. A lemon oil treated cloth is great for early stages of tarnish on silver and other metals as well.
Help your Dishes Sparkle
Add a few drops of lemon essential oil to your dishwasher soap container, and with each load your dishes will come out like new!
Zest up Sugary Indulgences
There are an infinite number of ways to add a bit of freshness to your sugary savors from lemon frosting to lemon cookies, even homemade lemonade.
Refresh your Toothbrush
If your toothbrush seems to be a little overworked, add a drop of lemon and peppermint oil to refresh your toothbrush.
De-Scratch a Scratchy Throat
Add a couple drops of essential oil to warm water and honey to de-scratch a sore throat. Lemon works great at fighting bacteria as well as viruses.
Brighten your Complexion
Lemon oil works great at removing dead skin cells and helps exfoliate the skin. For a homemade exfoliator just mix 4-5 drops to a small amount of oatmeal and water for a homemade facial scrub.
Remove Grease Stains
To remove sticky grease stains, simply add 1-3 drops to the stain and start scrubbing. Your grease stains will be gone in no time.
Get rid of Fridge Odors
Has your fridge started to smell? Add a few drops of lemon essential oil to a cotton ball and place it in the fridge to get rid of odors.
As you can see Lemon Essential Oil has many uses. So many, I couldn't list them all. But this gives you some great ideas! Be sure that you are using a high grade type of oil. If you decide to add it to food, please be sure that you are using a food grade oil.
Let's talk! Leave me a comment telling me if you've used any essential oils. What are your favorites? Have you used lemon? If so what did you use it for?

When it comes to NFL talent, where is the appropriate balance between risk and reward?
Janoris Jenkins is amping up the buzz on this annual draft question.
When you hear that name do you think Northern Alabama standout? Probably not. You likely remember him as the Florida cornerback who got booted out of school for multiple marijuana arrests and a failed drug test.
A shame. Jenkins is a first-round caliber defensive back. He's explosive, he's got good technique and coordination.
But coaches had to probe into his past at the NFL Combine. Jenkins says he looked his firing squad in the eye.
"I was honest, straightforward, told 'em I did it. I admitted to everything, I take full responsibility, and I learned from it."
He talked about the failed test, the drug charges, and the bar fight. The Combine certainly wasn't the first time he'd thought about the past; those Thursday night Northern Alabama games provided a gauge for how far he had fallen.
"There was a couple times. We didn't really play on Saturdays. My Saturdays I watched Florida, watched some of my old teammates play. It struck me, it hit me as a kid. I was just like, 'Man, I'm supposed to be there with those guys.' Just thinking about my past."
How much will teams like the Patriots think about it? Teams that need talent. Period. The 23-year old's arrest record is unimpressive -- that in combination with four children under the age of three has his basic sense of responsibility under the microscope.
Do not underestimate the need for examination.
Brandon Meriweather should be entering his prime in New England. Think about that.
The former Patriots safety should be preparing for his sixth NFL season; he should be playing on a sweet four-year deal. But he was a knucklehead in college and a knucklehead in the NFL. New England gave up on Meriweather after four seasons. The Bears tried a one-year contract but, according to Lovie Smith at the NFL Combine, that "didn't work out" either.
Meriweather has talent -- enough that the Patriots spent their 24th pick of the 2007 draft on him -- but he never grew out of the immaturity and recklessness he displayed at the University of Miami.
Jenkins is another gamble.
He says he's grown up. The dismissal from Florida called for a life change; he believes he's committed to making it.
"Eliminate myself from some of those guys I used to hang with. I think about my mom all the time and my kids. In order for me to be successful and them to have a great life or a nice life I've got to put it behind me. In order for my kids to get what they want, I can be a father to my kids and just be there with my mom."
Getting a team to commit to him is the next step. Might it be the Patriots? Depends on how how lucky they feel.

Service Area
We currently serve the following Georgia cities in Cobb County: Marietta, Kennesaw, and Acworth. We provide services for the Town Center, KSU, Legacy Park areas. Please contact us to verify locations within the Service Area. Additional charges for locations outside Service Area may be assessed at the Initial Consultation. For locations outside the Service Area, please visit the Georgia Network of Professional Pet sitters (GNPP) where you can [Find a Sitter] by Area or Zip Code.
Initial Consultation
Please do not schedule a consultation with us if you are still interviewing other sitters. We want to be the last service you contact, because we will be the last service you will ever need!!
NEW CLIENTS: At least two weeks prior to your first visit, an initial consultation will take place in your home. This give you the opportunity to introduce your pets and provide details about what care they will need. You will want to have ready copies of your house keys and sign the service agreement which will detail your pet sitting services. For security purposes, keys are kept in lock boxes and labeled such that they cannot be identified with your address. Once this initial consultation is complete, you will no longer need to complete the consultation in order to make future reservations.
Once your service request has been processed, you will receive a confirmation email showing your service order. If you have any questions about your service order, please contact us immediately.
About one week prior to starting your service order, a follow-up meet and greet at your home may be set up to give you the opportunity to introduce yourself and your pets to the pet sitter who will be completing your service order. Keep in mind your pet sitter may have other clients to serve and you may be busy getting ready for your trip or vacation. During holidays and peak travel times, you may want to arrange your pet care services well in advance.
If you are not receiving confirmation emails, you may need to add our outgoing email address to your address book or your allowed addresses list. Let us know if you have any problems and we will be glad to help.

We were in Baltimore for the last week. While there we stopped at Vaccaro's Italian Pastry Shop in Little Italy. Besides wonderful pastries they had "Muffuletta" on their menu. This was the first time I had seen Muffuletta on a menu outside of New Orleans. I always thought that the Muffuletta was named after the large, round, and somewhat flat Sicillian bread found in New Orleans.
I ordered Vaccaro's "Muffuletta". What was presented was a heated Panini made with provolone cheese, ham, Mortadella, Genoa salami and a chunky style olive tapenade. It was very good and filling. With multi layers of meats and cheese it was large enough to feed more than one person.
Has anyone had experience with Muffulettas outside of New Orleans?
Is it really a "Muffuletta" if it isn't made on Muffuletta bread?

Do you know that you can actually pawn your car and still use it? Auto pawn loan is a kind of secured debt that uses the car of a person who is going to loan and use it as a collateral. Do you need cash because of an emergency but you cannot go to your bank because of your credit rating, well you could go to an auto pawn loan and they could immediately release the cash and you do not need to give your vehicle.
How does auto pawn loan operate?
Everyone knows how pawn shops operate here in America. This is how it works, the pawn broker will let the customer borrow money for a period of time and get valuable asset from the customer as a collateral. Once the debt is paid by the borrower then the pawn broker will give back the asset of the customer. If you cannot pay your debt then the broker will own your collateral or he or she could sell it. The site of amanet auto bucuresti amanet autoturisme amanet masina amanet masini can give you more ideas.
Most pawn shops uses electronics, jewelries, fire arm and many more valuable things as a collateral. Auto pawn loan is not like traditional pawn shops since they have a different deal, like you can use your car as a collateral and still keep and use your car.
Since, the lender is taking a higher risk than a pawn shop, they have a higher interest rate.
These lenders will only lend a certain amount to borrowers, because they also want to get their money back if the borrowers fail to pay their debt. The value is higher than the price of the car. Check out this related post too: http://www.ehow.com/info_8262463_do-loans-work-through-banks.html.
How could you apply for an auto pawn loan?
It is easy to apply for a car loan,since you can apply online. It is important that you check the website first, make sure that it is secured because you will be sending important information to the lender.
You could also apply through the phone if you are not comfortable in applying online. You will need to talk to the lender for your loan approval.
When you submit all of the documentation then you could easily get approved and receive your money in a few hours. The document that will be needed is the title of the vehicle.
If you have a car then auto loan is the best way for you to get quick cash for emergencies. You can use the money to pay for home or car repairs, for student expenses, for medical and dental bills or to pay for smaller debts.
It does not matter what you do with your cash, as long as you pay it back. Visit our official amanet auto bucuresti amanet autoturisme amanet masina amanet masini site.

Toffee Glazed Macadamia Nuts
Toffee Glazed Macadamia Nuts..these are crazy addictive and SO easy, made in just minutes on the stove top!
Over the last few years I have developed an addiction to sugary, glazed nuts. I blame all the magazine articles on "celebrity diets" and how skinny celebs eat 16 almonds at 4:00 pm for an afternoon snack. Let me explain…
While I think the prospect of eating 16 almonds is just precious, I thought I would give it a try and see if it worked.
So it didn't.
I mean, first off I am allergic to almonds, so there's that…but even if you sub in 16 pecans you do NOT get full. Trust me. 16 nuts is a snack for ants, not human people.
In an attempt at cracking the celebrity nut case I took a little liberty with the portions of my nut snack…I feel like "16" might be more of a loose suggestion, not a hard limit, right?
Also, I found that nuts are MUCH tastier if they are coated in sugary, buttery toffee or nestled inside of a chocolate chip cookie. Who knew?
So yeah, 16 almonds for Jessica Alba = 1 cup of Glazed Macadamia Nuts for Shelly. It's celebrity math. I looked it up.
AND turns out that making your own Toffee Glazed Macadamia Nuts is majorly easy. It literally only takes minutes and then you too will be on your way to being a chubby version of Jessica Alba. We'll be twins!
I'm sharing the full recipe today over at Imperial Sugar!
Hop over to get all the details!!

15 Comments on "Toffee Glazed Macadamia Nuts"
These look amazing! I love macadamia nuts as a snack alone, but you've taken it to a whole new level adding sugar to them!!
oh that's must try recipe! I love macadamias!
I laughed out loud at skinny celebs eating just 16 almonds for their snack because I always think, well, I should be skinny, I eat almonds too for my snack….oh…but I eat 116 almonds, like the whole bag. Oh well. You will some you loose some. Anyhow macadamia nuts are my absolute favorite nut, I am a nutcase for them!!! They are like nothing else on earth, but toffee glazed? Holy cow, you just made my day.
16 pieces of almonds for a snack? Crazy. I tend to eat the whole bag, especially on movie nights. I love your celebrity math, though, except I'll go for two cups of these macadamias. Maybe even three.
Love your comedy!! And always look forward to getting a new recipe from you. I think this is one I'll have to try for sure. I don't have macadamia nuts on hand but I do have some mixed nuts in my freezer. Hmmmmm
I'm an addict!! I'm a super snackaholic! I might just make a batch for me!
Yum! I love macadamia nuts! And the sweet and salty combo never gets old.
This made me giggle! That celebrity math totally works for me too! LOVE love love these toffee macadamias!
Made these last night with almonds, because that's all I had. YUM!!! And soooo easy!! Can't wait to try them with macadamias. 🙂
Amazing dear.I also try this recipe.
Celebrity NUTCASE – You are such a crack-up! (Get it, crack-up?!) The wheels are turning in my head,as to what could be done with those yummy nuts: mixed in cookies, brownies, blondies, etc. Maybe include browned butter in such items with the crunchy nuts…..YUM! Just discovered brown butter – where to head to first?
made these yesterday, using the brittle option, (halved the less nuts)…..results were awesome. I have tried many different brittle type recipes and this is the easiest and yet totally dleicious. The first batch, i overcooked 🙁 but regulated the timing……. a little under 5 minutes for me as it continues cooking a little after taking it off heat.. Thanks heaps.

Price based on width and height entered by customer
Hello there. I have a problem that I thought would be solved by the measurement price calculator extension, but that extension doesn't do what I expected at all! (I wonder if I'm the only person to think that?)
I'm creating a site that sells banners and other printed products at custom sizes. The customer needs to be able to enter a width and a height and have a price generated that is an area calculation based on that width and height.
The measurement price calculator ties this calculation into the quantity for some reason (ie. it works out how many of a product to order based on the given dimensions), I can't image many people wanting to use it like that, but I might be wrong.
I need a customer to choose, say, a 2m x 1m banner, have a price displayed that's calculated from a per square metre price, and then be able to update the quantity to decide how many of those 2m x 1m banners they want.
Can I do this in any of the following ways:
* With the measurement price calculator extension
* With a "width" and "height" attribute
* In some other way I haven't thought of?
- The topic 'Price based on width and height entered by customer' is closed to new replies.

Vineyard Enigma : A Martha's Vineyard Mystery
Violent crime is a rarity on the tranquil shores of Martha's Vineyard, which is why ex-cop J.W. Jackson turned in his Boston badge to retire to the idyllic isle. And that's what makes a six-month-old murder so troubling to the perplexed locals. But Jackson's got troubles of his own -- including a loving wife, Zee, who's becoming curiously distant ... and the arrival of a mysterious visitor who's searching for a valuable set of stolen statues, and who's certain J.W.'s the man to hunt them down. It's an assignment that plunges the fisherman/chef-cum-private investigator into an unfamiliar milieu: the Vineyard's cutthroat world of art aficionados. And suddenly J.W. finds himself pitted against some of the island's most powerful and unscrupulous figures, uncovering lethal threads that may connect an unsolved mutilation/slaying with those who would stop at nothing -- including murder -- to add rare forbidden objects to their collections.

Seoul (AFP) July 15, 2011
A South Korean lawyer said Friday he plans to launch a class action lawsuit against US technology giant Apple over an iPhone feature that can track the location of users.
Kim Hyung-Suk last month received one million won ($950) in compensation from Apple's Korean unit, following an interim order by a court in the southeastern city of Changwon.
It was the first such payout by the company.
Kim said that as of Friday some 20,000 iPhone users had joined online preparations for a class action suit.
"Users who bought iPhones or iPads before May 1 will be able to join the action," Kim, who works for the Miraelaw legal firm in Changwon, told AFP.
Apple in May released updated software for iPhones to fix "bugs" that resulted in location data being unencrypted and stored for up to a year.
"In the first round of the class action which I plan to file around the end of the month, I plan to include the Apple head office as a target," Kim said.
The lawyer said no representative from Apple Korea was present during his court hearing in Changwon.
"In the action, I said my privacy was breached by Apple because it collected location information without my consent, which is illegal, and asked for damages," Kim said.
Park Jin-Su, spokesman for Changwon District Court, said the compensation order it issued was "a simple, quick decision" that did not involve extensive deliberations on the merits of the complaint.
He told AFP that Apple Korea had failed to raise objections within the legal limit of two weeks after the court order, and therefore the claimant collected the money.
The court spokesman said Apple "has every right to dispute the decision and if it does so, full-fledged hearings and a court ruling would follow".
South Korea has about three million iPhone users.
earlier related report
Apple filed a complaint against HTC in March 2010 with the US International Trade Commission (ITC) accusing the Taiwanese firm of violating ten patents related to the iPhone.
A preliminary finding on Friday reportedly said that HTC had violated two of the patents. HTC maintains none of the ten were infringed.
"We are highly confident we have a strong case for the ITC appeals process and are fully prepared to defend ourselves using all means possible," said HTC general counsel Grace Lei in a statement.
"We strongly believe we have alternate solutions in place for the issues raised by Apple. We look forward to resolving this case," she said, without elaborating.
The ITC has already ruled in a separate case that Apple infringed on patents held by HTC subsidiary S3 Graphics, according to the Taiwanese company.
As the legal battle between the rivals escalated, Apple filed a new compliant against HTC with the ITC on Monday involving patents related to iPads and iPhones. It has also lodged a suit against HTC in a US District Court in Delaware.
HTC touts its own brand of smartphones and also makes handsets for a number of leading US companies, including the Nexus One unveiled by Apple rival Google.
Patent lawsuits are a regular occurrence among technology giants. Apple is currently being sued by Nokia for patent infringement, and has fired back a countersuit against the Finnish mobile phone giant.
Last week Apple also hit back at an infringement claim by Samsung, calling for the South Korean company to be investigated.
