Good morning. I know there have been numerous posts but I am looking to go to 1 of these the 1st week in June all inclusive from Shannon or Cork and reasonably priced. I have a 4yo and 1 yo. Any advice would be appreciated as I am on all the websites and don't know where is best. Thank u so much in advance!!
Thanks very much for the replies. Looks like it will be Majorca!!
Glad to hear all the good reports on Majorca, we are going in August for the first time. My kids are 9 & 11 so a good age to sight see. Any tips welcome! Thanks in advance.
agree with the other Majorca gets my vote esp with young kids. we have gone there the last 3yrs and will more than likely go back in august. Its hard to beat for a family holiday.
I would also say Majorca is better with very young kids. The towns just seem to have very child friendly places, like restaurants with bouncy castles or play areas for young kids. And the beaches are very good for small kids. Portugal in my opinion has much more culture, lovely old churches and buildings to see etc. In Majorca often I feel you could be anywhere, there isn't anything truly local about it. But with such young kids you might not be sight-seeing anyway and suitability for them is probably more important.

Tarhouna – Muammar Gaddafi is determined to fight his way back to power, the toppled dictator's spokesperson said on Tuesday, but a large convoy of his soldiers has apparently deserted, crossing the Libyan desert into neighbouring Niger.Also on Tuesday, tribal elders in a Gaddafi stronghold were trying to persuade regime loyalists holed up inside to lay down their arms, a rebel negotiator said.Still, Gaddafi's spokesperson Moussa Ibrahim was defiant.Gaddafi is "in excellent health, planning and organising for the defence of Libya," Ibrahim told the Syrian TV station al-Rai, adding that both Gaddafi and his sons remain in Libya."We are fighting and resisting for the sake of Libya and all Arabs," Ibrahim said. "We are still strong and capable of turning the tables on Nato."Gaddafi loyalists have been holed up in several towns, including Bani Walid, some 140km southeast of Tripoli. Thousands of rebel fighters have surrounded the town, as rebel leaders tried to negotiate a surrender deal.Rebel negotiator Abdullah Kanshil said on Tuesday that tribal elders want assurances that the rebels will not take revenge, and are trying to persuade Gaddafi loyalists to lay down their arms.A member of the rebel transitional council said by telephone on Tuesday he was in a village near Bani Walid called al-Manasser that had just raised the rebel flag."The regime is over""We want the rest of the tribes to do like al-Manasser to avoid bloodshed and to realise that the regime is over and it will not come back," said Mubarak Sabah, who is from Bani Walid and represents the town on the transitional council. "They should realise that their brothers around the country are enjoying freedom and that they can follow them."Sabah reiterated that rebel fighters would not move into Bani Walid before Saturday unless the town surrendered, so as to avoid "a bloody war" with what he said was a minority of Gaddafi supporters in the town.Across the desert late on Monday, a large convoy of Gaddafi loyalists rolled into the frontier town of Agadez, Niger, said Abdoulaye Harouna, the owner of the local newspaper. The convoy consisted of more than a dozen pickup trucks bristling with well-armed Libyan troops, said Harouna, who saw the arrival.At the head of the convoy, he said, was Tuareg rebel leader Rissa ag Boula, a native of Niger who led a failed war of independence on behalf of ethnic Tuareg nomads a decade ago. He then sought refuge in Libya and was believed to be fighting on behalf of Gaddafi.It was not immediately clear if the convoy included any members of the Gaddafi family or other high-level members of his regime.Gaddafi's regime is believed to have financed the Tuareg rebellion in the north of Niger. African nations where Tuaregs represent a significant slice of the population, like Niger, have been among the last to recognise the rebels that ousted Gaddafi.Gaddafi remains especially popular in towns like Agadez, where a majority of the population is Tuareg. The Sahara Desert market town is the largest city in northern Niger.Harouna says the pro-Gaddafi soldiers accompanying Boula were coming from the direction of Arlit.Gaddafi's whereabouts The desert that stretches north of Arlit borders both Libya and Algeria. Some members of Gaddafi's family, including his wife, his daughter Aisha and two of his sons, recently sought refuge in Algeria.A rebel spokesperson for Tripoli's military council said the rebel leadership was aware of the convoy but had few details."It was not a large number of soldiers. We think it was a protection team of some sort," Anis Sharif said.
Dictators are all delusional if they think they are immortal.Put him before a firing squad when he is caught. Problems solved.
All praises to Muammar Gaddafi
You are a fool.
It turns out you'r one of just several hundred or a thousand or so supporters of the brutal dictator who denied Libyans the right to vote for 42 years.
not a fire squad, a cage exposed in the center of Tripoli and serve him the same food his prisoners used to receive. Majozi, you are welcome to join him!
Gaddafi is "in excellent health, planning and organising for the defence of Libya."
"We are fighting and resisting for the sake of Libya and all Arabs," Ibrahim said. "We are still strong and capable of turning the tables on Nato."
In a strange way you have to admire he's persistence. He has lost and there is a 0% chance he will ever rule Libya again but he still sends he's men to die while he cowers in a hole somewhere. I wonder if other dictators like mad bob would have the same resolve against those odds or would they have already run away by that point?

Marcellus Board of Education members Jeffrey Crysler and David Kelly's terms are expiring, but both will run again in the upcoming election.
Donald F.X. Keegan has resigned his spot, and whoever is elected will finish out his one-year term.
Ryan Riefler and Thomas T. Van Nguyen are running for election, also. The two with the highest number of votes will be elected to three-year terms, while the third will finish out Keegan's term, according to the superintendent's office.
The polls will be open from noon to 9 p.m. Tuesday, May 15, at Marcellus High School's Groeling Auditorium.
Ryan Riefler
Why are you running for election?
I am concerned about what the future of the Marcellus Central Schools holds for not just my children, but for all of the children in the Marcellus School District. As the economic strain has enveloped our community, I have seen programs cut, teachers nearing burn-out and public opinion divided over where to spend the dwindling funds. As expressed at the two community budget forums this year, the status quo must be abandoned and new ideas formulated. I have great pride in this community; I went through the school system, and I made a conscious decision to raise my family here. I am not willing to allow one of this community's greatest assets, our school system, to slowly slip into mediocrity.
If elected, what are some of the things you'd like to see accomplished during your term?
The board of education decides upon policy that it feels best directs the district and its students. I would like to accomplish the following:
Sustainability. This district needs to stop thinking in one-year budget cycles and adopt a plan for sustainability. There is a wealth of ideas that the members of this community have that never make it to the board for consideration. I hope to re-instill the trust necessary for students, staff, faculty, parents and residents to voice their thoughts and understand that they will be taken in earnest.
Academic opportunity. I am tired of the idea of maintaining programs. If this community is to continue its rich tradition of producing outstanding students, we need to provide them with the means to distinguish themselves on college admission forms or for preparation for going into a trade.
Fiscal management. While we must expand course selection and extra-curricular opportunities, this has to be done in a responsible fiscal manner. Furthermore, the district needs to continue on the path of transparency that it has begun; the community needs to be made aware of how funds are used.
What would you say are your best qualities that you will bring to the Marcellus BOE?
I am a patient, methodical individual who listens to the entire problem before suggesting a solution. I am hard working and I do not accept sub-par performance. If it is worth doing, it is worth doing well. I speak my opinion about an issue regardless of whether it is popular or not. I seek other people's opinions, especially when their thoughts are contrary to my own. Finally, my persistence is perhaps my greatest asset. When confronted with an obstacle, I find a way to accomplish my task.
Is there anything else you'd like to say about the election, your platform or anything regarding the board?
I do not favor rushing into things. Over the last year, I have attended every board meeting, with the exception of one, every community forum and every budget workshop. I wanted to become informed about what is happening in the district, and I wanted to make sure I was prepared to take on the responsibilities of being a board of education member. In addition, by participating in the board meetings, community forums and budget workshops, I have been reminded of the resiliency of the Marcellus community and its commitment to our children. I feel we have all the necessary tools to overcome the problems we are facing, and I am prepared to take an active role in that process.
Dave Kelly
Why are you running for re-election?
I am running for re-election because I care about the well being of the school district and students and the community.
Public education as we know it is changing. Curriculums, teaching strategies and students themselves are different today than decades ago. The changes present a great opportunity for schools to evolve and improve.
Involvement with the MCB BOE allows me a chance to be involved with district policies and many important aspects of the direction the school will take.
And I always remember that the main reason to run is to strive to make the process better and help all students reach their full potential.
If elected, what are some of the things you'd like to see accomplished during your term?
1. Advocacy for public education. We must strive for fair and equitable distribution of state aid.
3. Focus on increasing the academic standards and performance of students, administration and staff. People want to succeed; we must provide everyone with necessary resources.
4. Continued improvement of the budget process to be transparent and efficient.
5. See the district become more comfortable with new state directions such as Common Core, APPR and mandates.
6. Successful completion of union labor agreements for fair agreements on salaries, benefits and conditions.
7. Setting a strategy of dealing with declining enrollments.
8. Set a direction for possible capital improvement such as improvement to high school science facilities.
What would you say are your best qualities that you will bring to the Marcellus BOE?
1. The realization that I am not a professional educator and that I will take the time to learn about the changing face of education.
I understand the board is a policy making group and I will not be involved in micromanagement of tactical or operational aspects.
I am fair and willing to listen and evaluate different situations. I make decisions based on what I feel is right and what the majority of the community would support.
I do not have any agendas or personal missions that will influence my behavior.
5. I believe I have the listening and communication skills necessary to interface with other board members, the school staff and the community.
Is there anything else you'd like to say about the election, your platform or anything regarding the board?
No, other than I thank the community for their support over my last four years. It's been a privilege.
The school district in totality is doing a good job in education, and nurturing our students in a positive and safe environment.
Certainly as with everything in life there can be improvements.
I ask the community's support for another term to represent you on the MCS Board of Education.
Jeff Chrysler
Why are you running for re-election?
This was a very difficult decision this year. I have been on the school board for 12 years and have enjoyed the experience. I believe with the current fiscal status of the state that my experience on the board can provide a huge asset to the Marcellus School District.
If elected, what are some of the things you'd like to see accomplished during your term?
The number one goal has been and always will be the continuous improvement of our academic accomplishments for each and every student.
What would you say are your best qualities that you will bring to the Marcellus BOE?
My experience of the board, the management of the financial situation and my involvement with the faculty committee to expand and improve our outstanding campus.
Is there anything else you'd like to say about the election, your platform or anything regarding the board?
My only platform is to assist in the process of providing the best educational experience to everyone in the Marcellus Central School District.
Thomas T. Van Nguyen
Why are you running for election?
I run because I would like to see our students achieve the excellence in education.
If elected, what are some of the things you'd like to see accomplished during your term?
If elected,
A. I will work to make the educational achievements of all students a top priority.
B. I will work to make the budget process more transparent to the taxpayer.
C. I will work to keep the superintendent and administrators more accountable for students' education.
D. I will work to make the schools operate more efficiently and economically.
E. I will work to make the board of education more accessible to the public.
What would you say are your best qualities that you will bring to the Marcellus BOE?
I am a clinical assistant professor in the Family Medicine Department at SUNY Upstate Medical University.
Is there anything else you'd like to say about the election, your platform or anything regarding the board?
They are included in my answers to the second question.

Toxins are the invisible cause of illness that no one is talking about. The problem is just that – they're invisible. How do we understand and deal with something we can't even see?
We can see the soda and the fast food. We can see the sugar and the medications and the smoking. We can see sitting at our desk all day not exercising. Hell, we can even see stress and what it does to us.
But we can't see the toxic chemicals and metals that we've been exposed to slowly over our entire lives. And the damage they are doing inside of us.

Books, Bluster, and Bounty
- Local Politics and Carnegie Library Building Grants in the Intermountain West, 1890-1920
(E-bog, PDF)
Beskrivelse: Books, Bluster, and Bounty examines a cross-section of Carnegie library applications to determine how local support was mustered for cultural institutions in the lat... Læs mere e nineteenth and early twentieth century West. This comparative study considers the entire region between the Rockies and the Cascades/Sierras, including all of Idaho, Utah, Nevada, and Arizona; western Montana, Wyoming, and Colorado; eastern Oregon and Washington; and small parts of California and New Mexico. The author's purpose is to address not only the how of the process but also the variable why. Although virtually all citizens and communities in the West who sought Carnegie libraries expected tangible benefits for themselves that were only tangentially related to books, what they specifically wanted varied in correlation with the diverse nature of western communities. By looking at the detailed records of the Carnegie library campaigns, the author is able to provide an alternative lens through which to perceive and map the social-cultural makeup and town building of western communities at the turn of the century.

There seems to be a Russian proverb that runs like this:
"Ignore the past and you will loose an eye. Dwell on the past and you will loose both of them".
Well, I like that one. I have been fascinated by history all my life, even as a little boy. In school, we had a history book for each year and I have been reading it all through in the very first months.
Regarding history, there is another proverb I highly appreciate: "The nations and its people who ignore their own history are condemned to repeat it again and again".
As to the present, those gruesome and stupid wars going on in Iraq and Afghanistan might have been avoided by simply looking at precedents, similar cases that happened in the past and its outcome. This has not been done and now we have opened Pandora's box and it will take dozens of years to get it closed again.

A. That is right, sir.
Q. After refreshing your recollection, can you tell us, in substance, what Mrs. Baniszewski told you with reference to the girl coming to the house - after refreshing your recollection?

Q. Who - did she give you a note, did Mrs. Baniszewski give you a note?
A. That is right.

A. She read the note apparently and she stated she was out with some boys.
Q. Is that about the sum and substance of your conversation?
A. Yes, sir.
Q. Can you recall anything else I may have omitted or you may have omitted here?
A. I think you asked me a question a short time ago that I might rephrase, if you don't mind.
Q. What was that?
A. You said I advised her she should have counsel. She was not under arrest at that time, sir, that is the reason.
Q. I understand. You did interrogate her?

MR. NEW: We object.
THE COURT: Objection sustained.
MR. ERBECKER: Alright, for the purpose of making sure, I respectfully ask the Court to direct the court reporter to read back the one question I objected to.

A. As I say, normally.

SkyDome, Toronto, Ontario, Canada: Round 1, 2005 THQ World Supercross GP
Team Makita/Suzuki's Ricky Carmichael finally won another Supercross. It's been awhile, if you think about it. Since skipping the entire 2004 season with a knee injury, not to mention finishing second in the final six rounds of the 2003 season to 2004 champ Chad Reed (plus two U.S. Opens in a row), Ricky was way overdue. So what'd he do? He went up to Canada, where a couple things were sure to sort themselves out. One, winning was a virtual certainty. Secondly, he could work on shaking off the funk that he's had of never winning an opening round of Supercross, which had typically meant Anaheim. Now, Anaheim will be his round 3, which means racing in Toronto (and Vancouver next weekend) also served another purpose – to shake out any potential problems with the new team and bike.
Shake them out he did, and luckily before the checkers flew for the main event. Ricky had little trouble disposing of holeshot master Kyle Lewis after following him for about 2/3rds a lap to check out on eventual runner-up Mike LaRocco. Iron Mike held a strong but distant pace behind RC for the duration of the main, just a short distance ahead of the real battles, which were for third through fifth between Ferry, Voss and Tortelli. Those four seemed to find each other all night, but it was Ferry who finished up on top, and on the final podium position. Tortelli, who had swapped plastic with Ferry a few times in the duel, ended up going down and out of the race (uninjured), allowing Nick Wey and Voss to make their way up to take his spot. Tyler Evans on his graphics-free RM250 was next, after an inspired ride which put him in the middle of that factory rider mix for several interesting laps. In somewhat of a peculiar twist, the only Canadian to make it into the Main event was Doug Dehaan, who finished in 10th. A couple of Canada's other top riders chose to hit a supercross in Europe instead of this one on their home turf.
In the Midweight (125) class, another predictable winner – Red Bull/KTM's Nathan Ramsey – brought home the loons, but not before being pushed fairly hard by none other than Bobby Kiniry on his Team ECC CRF250. Ramsey had looked fast all weekend, clearly outpacing everyone else on the track, except for Kiniry. Bobby actually set fast lap time in Saturday's first practice, and looked to maybe have a little something for Nate Dawg. Those two ripped off the line and immediately pulled a few bike lengths on a field made up primarily of Canadian racers who, when all things were considered, had never ridden on a track of this caliber before. Kiniry kept Ramsey's pace for all 15 laps, following between 3 and 5 seconds back. Lapping up to 4th place, both riders had a lot to contend with – not the least of which was a severely rutted and fairly rocky track – but both kept their cool ahead of third place finisher Ryan Lockhart.
So, the inaugural THQ World Supercross GP in Toronto went down as a success. With a respectable crowd estimated to be around 30,000, everyone looks forward to returning next year.

So, I went to Zinc Bistro a Vins (aka Zinc Bar and Restaurant), AGAIN...., Friday, February 13th. I took my mother and my niece for a pre-Valentine's Dinner. We started with the beet salad (house salad) , lovely...and simple with red beets a very light vinegarette dressing topped with jullienned endive..., escargots "pastis" served in puff pastry- buttery almond sauce, wild mushroom and Morbier tart - Petite salad and a crock of la soupe à l'oignon (French Onion Soup). I've been here a couple times now and I always get the escargot and the French Onion Soup…excellent as always. My niece loved the mushroom tart as well as the FOS and the escargot (she's 7 yrs old, has a very mature palate). For entrees, I had the Grilled Steak Frites, my mother had the whitefish and lobster risotto (special that evening), my niece ordered the petite size, rabbit stew and pasta. All dishes were wonderful! The steak was perfectly prepared (medium rare…closer to rare), the whitefish and lobster risotto, delicious…with generous chunks of lobster and perfectly prepared risotto, the fish was light and flavorful as well. The Rabbit, was so tender and prepared a Dijon style sauce and thick pasta (made fresh "paparadelle like"). The small size was large enough for a meal, I'm sure the entrée size would have been large enough for 2. For desert, we ordered the chocolate bread pudding (another favorite of mine) and the chocolate mousse...perfect closers to another excellent meal and wonderful dining experience. The service was excellent as always! Zinc Bistro a Vins is now one of my favorite dining destinations!

As Denis mentioned in Good Morning News (and as your Twitter feed is probably still freaking the fuck out about), Comcast is trying to acquire Time Warner, at which point will they not only will control a huge swatch of media and infrastructure, but they'll also probably change their name to OmniCorp and expand Comcast's home security business into national security.
Over at the Verge, Bryan Bishop has a solid post that articulates exactly why—well, look at the headline: "Why You Should Be Scared of Comcast and Time Warner Cable Merging."
It would turn the behemoth into a titan, expanding Comcast's reach and power in unprecedented ways. Tie in the fact that Comcast also owns NBCUniversal—which means it has a movie studio as well as broadcast and cable networks of its own—and you're looking at a vertically integrated media juggernaut. One that wouldn't just be in control of our televisions, but would be ready to steer the direction of any future online services as well. (Via.)
And if that's not chilling enough, just think of how much shittier Comcast's customer service will get when they have one less major competitor to worry about. Read the whole thing here.

i meant to get this post up a long time ago for a friend... but if you had a very bad gluten intolerance, children, lived in markham and would like to keep costs in the low-mid scale... where would you go?
i would say they're limited non-traditional canadian experiences as well and so places that were a bit more mainstream would be best. part of their reluctance with trying much cross-culturally has been because of a fear of not being able to communicate their gluten-free needs with service staff though and so perhaps they will eventually branch out.
thoughts and suggestions are welcomed! thanks!

By Leika Kihara
TOKYO (Reuters) - The Bank of Japan will likely choose to deepen negative interest rates than expand its bond purchases if more policy easing is needed, as the cost of cutting rates is less than topping up an already huge bond-buying programme, former central bank policymaker Sayuri Shirai told Reuters on Monday.
Shirai, who was an International Monetary Fund economist before serving a five-year term as BOJ board member until March, also said it was hard for the central bank to buy foreign bonds as that goes against an agreement between the Group of 20 nations to refrain from competitive currency devaluation.
"Buying foreign bonds would have an impact on the currency market, so it would be difficult to do under the current G20 framework," said Shirai, now a professor at Japan's Keio University.
Shirai said the BOJ's purchases of long-term bonds have had a much bigger effect in flattening the yield curve and hurting financial institutions' profits than negative rates. The BOJ's bond buying was also drying up market liquidity, she said.
"The BOJ shouldn't ease further. If it were to ease, it will probably choose to deepen negative rates rather than expand bond purchases because the demerits of accelerating bond buying are bigger than those of rate cuts," she said.
The comments by Shirai, who retains close contact with policymakers across the globe, come ahead of the BOJ's policy meeting on Sept. 20-21, when it will conduct a comprehensive assessment of the effects of its policy framework that combines negative rates with a huge asset-buying programme.
Once a vocal advocate of BOJ Governor Haruhiko Kuroda's radical monetary experiment, Shirai has recently warned of the rising cost of maintaining a massive stimulus programme for too long.
While undesirable, the BOJ may be forced to ease this month if it maintains its pledge to achieve 2 percent inflation as soon as possible, since the comprehensive assessment will show Japan won't see the price target being reached any time soon, she said.
"Given the BOJ has been committed to doing additional monetary easing in case the path toward 2 percent inflation is questioned, it's hard to think how the central bank can get away with not easing this month."
The BOJ decided in January to charge a 0.1 percent interest on a portion of excess reserves financial institutions park with the central bank. It has maintained that rate so far, including at its previous policy meeting in July.
Shirai also dismissed speculation about a possible change to the BOJ's base money target - set at 80 trillion yen ($774 billion) - to a range of 70-90 trillion yen. Proponents of this idea say it will give the central bank more flexibility in its bond buying.
"It's inappropriate to set such an ambiguous range. It would only heighten market volatility by causing confusion," she said.
Kuroda on Monday signaled his readiness to ease further using existing or new tools, suggesting he has no intention of watering down the price goal.

Few figures in rock and roll history have attained the mythical status of Doors lead singer Jim Morrison. For some reason he got to pass himself off as a poet when everyone else was just an asshole, but regardless: He's the American Poet, the Lizard King, Mr. Mojo Risin and all the rest.
He was found dead in a Paris bathtub July 3, 1971, supposedly of natural causes along the lines of heart failure. But, Rolling Stone writes, one of Morrison's friends has a new book on the way saying something completely different.
Sam Bennett, among other things a former New York Times journalist and friend of Morrison's, wrote the forthcoming book The End – Jim Morrison. Bennett states in his book that Morrison died of a massive heroin overdose in a club bathroom and was later moved to the hotel bathtub where he was found.
Bennett claims that in the early hours of July 3, 1971, the Lizard King showed up at the Rock and Roll Circus club on Paris' Left Bank looking to buy some heroin for his girlfriend Pamela. He scored some dope and headed for the bathroom. A while later, the cloakroom attendant said one of the bathroom stalls was locked, and after having a bouncer break it down, Bennett saw Morrison slumped over on the toilet, a mixture of blood and foam coming out of his mouth. A club patron who worked as a medic declared the rocker dead.
It's at this point that the dealers Morrison bought the smack from insisted he was still alive and said they would take care of him, carrying him out of the club. A club representative later told Bennett and Marianne Faithful, who had been present the whole time, that the club was in no way responsible for what happened to Morrison and it would do them both good to keep their mouths shut.
The statute of limitations on Morrison's case expired 17 years ago, so there isn't much that can be done in light of these new accusations. For his part, Bennett says he just wants to say his piece and clear the air. Paris officials say they will investigate these charges, as action can still be taken in civil court.
So Morrison possibly joins the ranks of the overdosed. We all kind of figured that's what happened, bloated, bearded and disheveled as he was toward the end, but now we (sort of) know for sure. The manner in which his old buddy finally came forward raises an eyebrow or two, but regardless, chalk up another '60s icon done in by the drugs they cherished.
I'm sure Bennett was getting down with some kind of dragon that night, as well, but at least he's still around to tell his side of the story. It would be nice if some of the people who actually wrote the music made it through the era with him.

Ban is currently on a visit to Lebanon.Plumbly has been a Middle East specialist during his 35 years in the British diplomatic service, including as ambassador to Egypt and Saudi Arabia.The post was set up after the 2006 war between Lebanon and Israel to represent the UN on all political and coordination aspects in the country. It replaced an earlier post coordinating UN activities in south Lebanon and international efforts to maintain peace and security between Israel and Lebanon.
Good luck hope his methods will better off Williams's not that he ddnt do good of a job

I spent a while today with Effi in his foster home and was struck by his complex personality. He is not one to fawn all over you. He's also not a cat to be fawned all over. He wants to be treated like an equal; and so demands some personal time and space. He has a sense of humor and likes to play; he is friendly and companionable. But make no mistake about it, he's his own man.

Minneapolis, Minnesota (PressExposure) May 03, 2012 -- According to recent reports by PhishBucket, online job scams have increased significantly since the start of the recession. These scams often come by email promising home-based business opportunities that do nothing but charge the person a high fee and leave them with nothing.
"My MRMI SuperCash system is designed for people sick of online scams and who are tired of hype about turn-key systems that don't come with a key. Inside SuperCash I teach the same principles I do to my coaching students, which include Fortune 500 CEOs."
What 9,000 + SuperCash Members Have Seen So Far
Now entering its third year, MRMI SuperCash continues to increase in popularity, with over 9,000 members signing up for the program. Because the training materials are delivered electronically, members can start benefiting moments after they sign up after paying the modest $1 fee for a full access 30 day trial.
"I provide members with ongoing training, weekly webinar coaching and step-by-step instructions." says Pierce. "This is a legitimate turn key business where we don't forget to give you the key."
There are many business models members can choose from. Some members have specialized in creating websites and then selling them at a profit. Others create websites devoted to selling products as an affiliate and earning generous commissions. Some members already have an established offline business and join SuperCash so they can learn how to market their businesses online.
Pierce plans to continue to offer MRMI Super Cash at the low price of $1 to join for the foreseeable future. "I'm bound and determined to make sure everyone with the desire to earn a legitimate living online from home has the opportunity to do so without any barriers and without falling for scams anymore."
About Stephen Pierce
Stephen Pierce has been a celebrity in the internet marketing world the past ten years. He runs a highly successful business now, even though he was broke and homeless in the late 1990s.

The Bengals rewarded defensive tackle Tank Johnson with a four-year contract after turning around his career last year in Cincinnati, a source said on Monday.
Johnson was an unrestricted free agent after signing a one-year deal last season. At the age of 28, Johnson provided leadership and run-stopping ability to a Bengals defense that was one of the surprises of the NFL.
A former second-round choice of the Bears in 2004, Johnson played three seasons for the Bears and two seasons for the Cowboys before joining the Bengals.
He started 13 games for the Bengals last season and had 29 tackles and two sacks.
Senior NFL writer John Clayton covers the NFL for ESPN.com.

We have been living in our property, a new build, for 6 months now. We don't deal with landlord directly, we go through a letting agent called Tenant Network.
We live in Portsmouth and although friends had warned us with horror stories about Tenant Network, we stupidly ignored them because we were so in love with the property.
We never imagined damp and mould would be an issue in a new build because we were nowhere near the sea but as winter came the guttering collapsed and water started to leak through our roof.
It then started to spread up the walls of our property. We cleaned twice a week but it kept coming, covering entire walls. My partner's health began to waver and he ended up in hospital with pneumonia. We explained his decline in health since the damp arrived and the doctor told us it was directly causing his bad health.
After telling Tenent Network this, they came round to the property and told us it was our fault because we hung washing out and would we like a leaflet on damp?
The property has no ventilation and no windows. We were then told to leave the doors open in the middle of winter and as it rained down heavily outside, were told to hang our washing out in the garden.
They have strung this out for months, doing absolutely nothing, passing the blame onto anyone but themselves and we're feeling ill and stressed and very disheartened by the whole experience.
It was our first home together since getting engaged and we're just distraught at what has happened to us.
They have ignored most of our emails, laughed in our faces when we speak to them and have failed to fix the back door to our flats so homeless people squat in our hallways and shout abuse at us as we leave for work.
This whole experience has put us off renting forever.
Please tell us there is a way out of this?

A year ago, one of my sites got the dreaded Google Adsense suspension saying it cannot display ads because I'm showing copyrighted content. Which totally bummed me because that site is where I share my graphic design work for digital scrapbookers. Everything was made from scratch. I guess that pissed me enough to not bother appealing that 'verdict'.
So I searched for alternatives to Adsense. And yes there are plenty and some very good ones at that. I 'm listing it out here. I'm leaving out CPC networks already mentioned in most listings for alternatives to Adsense, but instead I'm sharing some not so known ones but performing very well.
- Media.net – Yahoo's answer to Adsense. Serves contextual ads and works really great for a lot of website owners. Its somehow stricter when it comes to approving sites, but its worth the hassle.
- Burst Media – offers CPM advertising from brand advertisers.
- Pulsepoint – ad-exchange program where you set the price.
- Lijit – an ad network helping 'publishers engage and understand their readers'
- RivitMedia – a highly specialized ad network for crafting and DIY specialists.
I personally only have limited experience to Media.net which is really good. But for the other ad networks listed, I'm all set to try it out since I've heard positive things about it as well. The thing with blogging and monetizing blogs, it really helps to diversify and try different ad networks that fits right to your niche.

Why are virtual machines always so slow?
I love the idea of virtual machines....being able to test/use software in a program, without affecting anything else, but they always come out with bad results for me. On whatever computer I use, on whatever OS and hardware, the virtual machines are always slower than if you had it installed on the computer. I'd love to have Windows Vista and or XP on a virtual machine along with a Linux OS, I've already tried with various virtual machine software, and they're always just so slow. I gave XP Mode a try, and it was too slow to use. My system has relatively good hardware, so I don't understand why they are slow. Is this normal? Or is there a fix for this?
|My System Specs
|22 Feb 2011
Windows 10 Pro x64, Arch Linux
Your CPU may be the cause of this slowness, it is clocked at 1.3GHz which is barely sufficient for running VMs
|My System Specs
|22 Feb 2011
That might be the cause, my CPU is pretty weak compared to the newer ones available. It was nice when I got this machine two or so years ago, but everything changes.
|My System Specs
|22 Feb 2011
Windows 7 Ultimate x64
I'm not entirely sure what you are seeing, or why. In my environment, my VM's are always quite speedy. In fact, they boot up and shut down was faster than my physical machine. Overall, they are a tad bit slower than the physical machine when it comes to running a CPU intensive application....but i believe that a majority of this is caused by the weaker simulated hardware devices that the VM uses. My experience has been the same with XP Mode, Virtual Box and VMWare Player 3.x.
For me, I normally run my VM's on these machines;
--Laptop with Pentium Core 2 Duo P8600 at 2.4Ghz with 4GB of RAM.
--Desktop with Pentium Core 2 Duo E8400 at 3.6Ghz with 8GB of RAM.
--Desktop with Pentium Core 2 Quad Q9400 at 2.66Ghz with 8GB of RAM.
--Desktop with Pentium Core 2 Quad Q9550 at 3.2Ghz with 8GB of RAM.
One thing to make sure of is that you install the products "tools". VirtualBox calls them "Virtual Machine Additions" and VMware calls it "Vmware tools". These will certainly improve the performance of the VM.
Also, be sure to set your expectations right. You aren't going to be able to setup a Virtual XP machine for hardcore gaming. The video subsystem simply won't be able to handle it. But to setup a Virtual XP machine to surf the web to avoid malware from your physical machine should be just fine.
|My System Specs
|22 Feb 2011
I totally forgot about virtual machine additions....maybe I'll give those a try , but I'm still guessing its my low-clocked CPU
I'd still like to be able to use Vista somewhere.....a virtual machine seems like the best option, I'd prefer to have a dual-boot, but I already have a data partition, and my hard drive is too small for 3 partitions (250GB).
|My System Specs
|22 Feb 2011
Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit
It depends on how much of your CPU (including cores, if you have a multi-core CPU) and RAM you allocate. I have an AMD Phenom II X4 @ 3.0 GHz and 4GB of RAM and I can run 4 VMs at once. Of course, it also depends on what you're running. Virtualizing XP doesn't take much of a resource, but Windows 7 is a different story.
|My System Specs
|22 Feb 2011
I have no complaints about Ubuntu in vBox. I run it on a 2.5GHz Duo Core and a 2.4GHz Quad. But both systems have SSDs - maybe that makes a difference. I have, of course, the guest additions.
The Chromium on Ubuntu is just as fast as Chrome on Windows7 native. Also other operations are quite fluent. At the time I was also running Win7 Beta in vBox and was very pleased with the performance.
Your 1.3 GHz low power CPU is unusual - even was 2 years ago. Is that a Netbook?
|My System Specs
|22 Feb 2011
Its sort of like a netbook, I'd call it halfway between a netbook and a laptop. Its got a 12.1" sized screen, so the form factor is like a netbook, except its far more powerful than one, it runs Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit pretty fast....
|My System Specs
|22 Feb 2011
|My System Specs
|22 Feb 2011
Yeah I'm really curious about SSDs....I'd definitely consider doing that except I have no clue how to replace it, my laptop is so small and locked down....so far the only thing I've been able to do on it is upgrade it to 4GB RAM from the stock 2GB lol

I currently have 2.3.13 on my droid x and I don't want to update to the official ota until an SBF is released. However, I don't have the full market on 2.3.13. I know that I can fix this by editing the build.prop so that my phone looks like a droid 2 to the market, but it seems that I should be able to edit it so that it looks like the official ota for the droid x. Does anybody know what I need to do to the build.prop to do this? Alternatively, does anyone have a build.prop from the official ota that you could upload? Thanks!

sneak preview
I've started a new quilt based on the Sashiko inspired cushion I made a few weeks back. It's going to take a few months so I thought I would show you 'work in progress' as I go along.
Above is a photo of a lovely pile of folded fabrics, mmmm...
Unfortunately I don't have enough Kaffe Fassett fabrics to make a whole quilt from so I had to choose from my stash.
I had a (relatively) strict criteria - large patterns (not just a small motif repeated) and with at least 3 colours. And no stripes or checks, the patterns needed to be bolder
and more complex.
Next I cut out 81 x 5 and a half inch squares using my trusted rotary cutter. And a whole bunch of 1 and a half inch strips of different shades of denim (all cut-up jeans, mine, my mum's and my sons!).
Next I pinned all the squares on to my Sun Wheel Mandala quilt (which hangs on the wall of my sewing room and gets treated appallingly!) and juggled them about till I was happy with the result.
I have already started sewing the strips and squares together. This should only really take a few weeks. I am making it in 4 quarters and intend to do the quilting/sashiko on each quarter and piece together when finished - more on this later!
