|What are all these '.CTF' files doing in my project? Where did they come from? What are they for?
|When you save a graphics page a file with
the extension 'CTG' is created. From version 3.00 onwards a 'CTF'
file is also created when you save the page. The 'CTF' file
contains a single bitmap that has all background objects rendered
onto it and all the animated objects. In other words all the
background objects have been converted into a single bitmap
automatically for you and saved into a separate file.
At runtime the 'CTF' file is used instead of the 'CTG' so that rendering of the background is faster.
The Fast Runtime Display can be disabled by selecting View|'Display Options' in the Graphics Builder and unchecking the 'Fast Runtime Display Option' option. If Fast Runtime Display is disabled then a CTF will not be produced each time a page is saved, nor will CTF file will be used at runtime if it exists.
When Fast Runtime Display is re-enabled, your are asked if you wish to update all the CTF files. This will refresh the CTF file for all the pages in the current project. Refreshing involves checking the CTG file against the CTF file. If the CTF file does not exist or is older than the CTG file then the page is loaded and a CTF file is produced.
If Fast Runtime Display is enabled, but the CTF file has been deleted, then runtime will just use the CTG file instead. The Graphics Builder never reads information from a CTF file. The CTG file always contains the 'master' copy of the page.

I am still a lover of my silhouette Cameo and mostly with the designer edition software cause it allows me so much creativity to make my own files or tweak files but I broke down and bought a new Cricut explore air because I was hearing so many good things about the cuts being so clean. My cameo has been used hard for over 4 years. Still kicking but it has been cutting pretty terribly so I wanted to "explore" my options.
The cuts are definitely cleaner so that is a big PRO but there are several cons to the Cricut as well and I will share my thoughts on that now.
1. Design capabilities are extremely basic. You cannot create files because there are no functions to edit pivot points, draw or anything like that. There is not even an option to offset to create a shadow layer or inset. I miss the slice tool also. You can accomplish a little slicing with the "Slice" function but it is really strange how you use that. You need to place a shape over the item you want to slice in order to use it so its not a functional slice to me.
2. Slow process and what I mean by that is I make alot of items for my etsy shop. Time is something I don't want to waste and everything is done with web based software so you have to wait till it tells the machine you want to load the mat, wait until the machine tells you to hit a button to cut. Lots of time goes by to get to those points. Cutting itself is much slower than the Cameo as well, although much more quiet!
3. Software, being web based you are at the mercy of the internet, Cricuts servers and the amount of people who may be accessing so more error codes might happen. Most users will tell you that occassionally you have to clear your cache. Well I am going to tell you I don't like that aspect at all. I don't like that I can open up two different projects at one time that I have saved and want to put on the same mat to work with.
4. Cartridges cannot be used directly from the machine, they have to be linked and if you have linked them to a gypsy or something than it is a pain I believe to get them on your account because they don't want to link in design space. Shouldn't it let you link you own cartridges again in design space without having to go backwards to craft space to do it first?? So that is a big con cause for people who don't necessarily want to be on the internet to design or cut that is not a possibility for them.
5. Getting ahold of customer service. You might want to brew a whole pot of coffee cause your going to be there for a while buttercup. Expect at least 1 hour for hold times but that is the least. I had problems with my machine and I will say this I did get taken really good care of by Cricut so I am thankful for that. But I hope that Cricut will see they have alot to work on since now they have a great machine.
So you can see my "CONS" are mostly on the software end of things. The machine itself is great, could be faster but still great.
So now Silhouette PLEASE come out with a machine that cuts better cause you are rocking all the rest of the equation.
Here are some new clips I cut with my cricut explore. I mean the cuts were fabulous. My cameo would have not done well with it. The little buttons on the raincoat would have just been chewed up and spit out with my cameo.

A great number of opting for to depart community, out to a good area as well as there build their particular house. You will enjoy this remedy for people who are looking for area and tranquility. Building a house must also make sure to fence. The fence separates our house from the property of other folks. Because of this, we create a safe place which is our home. Fence limits our terrain, a buffer against the outside world. As soon as inside we are able to feel risk-free without having to worry that some people invade our own premises and we steal the property. They have a multitude of fencing because they may be timber, metal, natural stone, or perhaps a simple power. It is very important to properly pick the fence for that appearance in our home. It should connect to him and a unified whole. Right here also we have many options to pick from with regards to color and elegance. It really is good to select large -quality goods, which on the other hand, end up being safe, and the other is going to be strong and we will not have to worry about them for quite some time. Popular low fence you will probably find any time a short period of your time could have problems and our garden is not safe because it easily they may be ruined. Choosing a fence is vital and it is worth a tad bit more to think about and also choose the great. Then we are going to have a very great place where we all feel risk-free.

Veterinary Assistant Interview Questions and Answers
1 of 25
1 of 25
How would you handle a situation that could cause you to be late for work?
User Submitted Interview Answers
The most difficult experience that I faced at the Durham Humane Society was viewing how deplorable the conditions were within the small rodent room, and having the employee in charge of that room refuse to let anyone clean in there. I discovered a bug infestation amongst the food, which helped to resolve a major infestation occurring within the shelter.
Well, I definetly wouldn't like it but I think I could handle it. At least I knew I tried to help that animal as best as I could.
One of the most difficult situations is always euthanasia. Even though you know the animal was sick and this was the best option it is never easy.
The most difficult decision I have experienced was attending a home visit to put to sleep the family dog. I just focused on how hard it must be for the family and that they are relying on the vet and I to be completely calm and in control.
Healthy 6 month old puppy went Bradycardic on me during a dental extraction. Turned ISO down, called doctor in, turned the patient off, and drew up emergency meds.
Based on previous experience while volunteering I would have to say witnessing staff not treat animals with the respect they deserve.
Ive actually never been in a vet setting, this would be my first job working as a vet assistant and I feel I would make a great assistant as I am very passionate about helping animals big or small , and I would like to grow in this line of work.
The most difficult situation I have faced is a dog fight. I was able to break the fight apart quickly.
I was faced with the decision to keep my horse alive and in pain by permanent lameness or to put her down and out of her misery. I ended up putting her down because i knew that that was best for her.
The most difficult situation I was in was my first week as an extern at the veterinary hospital and I was watching a dental. The dogs pre-anesthetic blood work was completely normal. A few minutes into the dental the dogs heart rate dropped to 0. Although I was really nervous I stayed calm and I drew up emergency drugs for the experienced technician I was shadowing. I also administered LRS to the dog while the dvm gave CPR. I believe I handled I well because I didnt freak out and crack under the stress.

Unanswered: Large SQL Database Size
Long story so ...SQL admin resigned and I ended up managing the SQL server (I'm the developer). We were having some issues with disk space and when I run sp_spaceused on our database I got the following results:
database_name database_size unallocated space
MyDB 56207.88 MB 45544.69 MB
reserved data index_size unused
The DB has a SIMPLE RECOVERY model. What would be the best practice to reclaim space? Do I just do it directly SSMS where I can run the task to SHRINK the FILE?
Best shrink action to take?
(1) Release unused space
(2) Reorganize pages....
(3) Migrating data to other filegroups.....

I have no or little experience in reducing the size of a database. What I've done so far is simply run Shrink using Management Studio or re-create the whole db (I'm also a developer). I suppose adding a new harddrive is not an option?

Adding disks is usually pretty easy - especially when you're only talking about a 56GB database.
If you really wanted to shrink the file, you could use DBCC ShrinkFile
However, what you need to consider first is why are your database files at the size they are at:
1.) Did previous DBA just overestimate file sizes when creating the database
2.) Did something put a load of data in the database which extended the file size out that has subsequently been removed, if so is it possible another task will run that does something similar again in the future.
Remember increasing the size of a file takes time - if you have a transaction running that is going to pump 10GB of data into a database even temporarily, it needs the space to do it. If that space is not there it will need to spend a minute or two extending the file which slows down not only the transaction doing the import but also potentially other transactions.

Thanks. It was #2. We decided to upload images to the SQL server as a binary/image file. Initially, the JPG images were at its full size (several MB big per image). I had several trials on images uploads with different file size. Eventually, I resized them to a manageable level (~20K each). I didn't notice I was getting hit with an expanding DB until I saw I had 2 GB left on the server disk.
Also, I was not sure about using SHRINKFILE or SHRINKDATABASE since I was reading recommendations not to use it because it causes fragmentation.

Early this morning, James Cameron sent word from the New Zealand set of Avatar 2 to confirm a major new character had been cast in the hugely anticipated sequel. While fans were looking forward to the return of Jake Sulley and Neytiri, Cameron seems intent on taking the sequel in a brave new direction.
The legendary director has made the bold decision to cast action legend Arnold Schwarzenegger as the King Of The Na'vi: A longsword-wielding blue badass with a thirst for violence.
Speaking to WEBSITE.COM, Cameron explained what motivated the decision:
I'm just kind of over the whole save the environment thing you know? I believe that message is played out. What I want Avatar 2 to tell people is: 'Hey trees are great, but so is violence.' and I just wanted to play with that concept.
When asked why he chose Arnie as the man to shake up the formula, Cameron responded:
I just watched Conan The Barbarian for the first time with a buddy of mine and he's no fool. I couldn't get the idea of Conan on Pandora out of my head. Plus Arnie is a good friend of mine and recently came to me asking for work.
Cameron finished by saying:
When it came to fitting Jake & Neytiri back into the story I just found myself asking why? Why would I want to spend time with these characters when I could be watching 4 hours of Schwarzenegger painted blue and killing things with a space sword? It was a no brainer.
Oh and:
And, like Arnie's accent is pretty weird? Am I right? Like, when I listen to him talk all I think is: Alien God sat on a throne of stardust. Plus his character, King Pilaflo'Or, is just learning to speak English so Arnie's bizarre inflection is perfect. Is that racist? Can I say that?
After that, Cameron reportedly climbed back into his submarine while muttering "Game over man, game over."
We'll have an update on this story April 1 2015.

Messi Has Tattooed A Sock Onto His Leg In Case He Forgets He's A Footballer
If you thought the bleached hair was bad, wait for this
Lionel Messi, the best footballer in the world (sorry, CR7) has added some interesting ink to his body: an all-black sock which contains both his shirt number and a football.
The Barcelona striker was snapped with his new artwork on display whilst training with Argentina.
Is he signaling his commitment to winning the Champions League and dedicating himself to crafting immortal technique? Or does he need a reminder to pack his socks for training?
The left leg was already covered with a tattoo of his son Thiago and adorned with wings and flowers, but it looks like the black tunnel of dark ink has won his heart over an image of his offspring.
But when it comes down to it, his right calf is reserved exclusively for oversized canine companions.

Unfortunately for this city, there are very few prominent black citizens--including and especially civil-court judges--who are not corrupt. I believe that blacks have bought into the proposition that whites "did it to them" for years and it is time that blacks can have their revenge. Unfortunately, that means that the entire city goes down in the process. Can anyone actually say that New Orleans is a well-run municipality?
Gambit is perceptive enough to recognize the citizens that are making positive differences in our community.
I would be delighted to see a black leader who is as color-blind as blacks have demanded white people to be. Instead, we have the ilk of C.Ray Nagin (who got the Gambit nod before they realized what an ass he is) and the ever-corrupt Marc Morial and his brother Jacques. Other ignominious notables include, but are not limited to, Tracie Washington, the good ole Jefferson family, the ever-inept Warren Riley, and several bribery-welcoming civil court judges. If New Orleans had a competent black person who did not simply cater to other blacks and who truly believed that all of the citizenry deserved a good city---now THAT person would be worthy of a Gambit award.

Once you have decided to relocate in the Principality of Monaco you will have to open a local bank account. In many cases opening a bank account is the very first step that foreign people do. It can be a very obvious choice because without (employment contract or) the bank proof that you have enough fund to live in the territory of Monaco you have no chance to successfully apply for a residence permit.
Monaco's banking and financing sectors offers you an estimated of forty banks and another fifty wealth managers, family offices and financial advisors. They are managing together a fund, which is almost 100 billion Euro.
What is interesting is that even if Monaco offers almost ninety banks, wealth managers and family offices, very few of them are empowered to receive all types of deposits. Therefore if you might need a specific deposit service in the future then it is always better to make some pre-check before you choose and commit yourself to a bank.
It is also good to know that all licensed banks in the Principality of Monaco, as well as the fund and portfolio manager companies belong to the Monégasque Association of Financial Services, which is a member of the European Banking Federation. Therefore Monaco is in the Eurozone and the SEPA (Single Euro Payments Area).
All the members of the Monégasque Association of Financial Services are subject to regular supervising. These supervisions take place of course with the highest confidentiality to secure the undisturbed operation of the Monégasque banking establishments. They happen in order to protect the residents and the investors' best interest.
For many years now the Principality of Monaco takes serious steps and an active fight against money laundering, corruption and terrorists financing. These steps often reaches international levels as well.
The Principality of Monaco has also created its own Financial Investigation Unit, called S.I.C.C. FIN (Service d'Information et de Contrôle sur les Circuits Financiers). The S.I.C.C. FIN works together on an international level with more than 130 countries all around the globe. It has a role to suspend financial transactions carried out by professionals who are subject to legal matters.
This special attention and care helps Monaco to develop and modernise its banking system and its whole financial sector. It supports practices and quality standards, which are globally recognised by all European financial centres.
We help you to achieve your highest ambitions in the Principality of Monaco.
No, it is not.
The common belief is that you have to have at least one million Euro to open a bank account in Monaco. This is not exactly true, let's say it can be true.
Monaco does not draw any line of how much fund you need to relocate and to live in the Principality. Despite all the expectations it has never been regulated. The only thing that the Government requests is a visible proof that you will have enough fund, income to maintain your living costs and residency once they accept your residence request.
Most banks and wealth managers prefer the big accounts whereby they can offer more services but you should not make your decision based on the requested opening amount. Furthermore you should never allow the wealth manager to control you because they need you much more than the other way around.
One of the most important thing to consider is how the banks can serve your best interest in the Principality. At this point the amount is irrelevant since even if you have small funds you can open bank account from 150 000 Euro. However if you need a custom tailored wealth management service and/or some independent investment advisor team perhaps you will look for a different level, starting from one million Euro.
You should also consider whether you need a bank, a wealth manager company or a small family office. They all can co-operate together to assist you but from your own perspective maybe it could be a key question which one has the power of attorney to your assets.
The most important for you is to find the right partner which is able to fulfil your needs. Do not be afraid to look around and to get an impression from many of the possible banks. If you have a few days in Monaco you can take a little "window shopping" to compare the possibilities and to gain a first hand impression.
You will also see that once you are considered by the bank as an important partner the amount will never be important again. In many banks you can also create good bargains by renegotiating their conditions. Do not forget that even if they will never admit it publicly they really need you since you are the client. And as a silent mark I would add that they know that probably your savings account is much higher than a standard commercial account.

Eddie Vedder attacks warmongers in passionate gig speech
Pearl Jam star Eddie Vedder lost his cool at a gig in England on Friday (11Jul14) and stopped the show to protest the world's warmongers. The ticked-off Alive singer halted the group's gig in Milton Keynes to rant, telling fans, "There are people out there who are looking for a reason to kill!"
He added, "They're looking for a reason to go across borders and take over land that doesn't belong to them. They should get the f**k out and mind their own f**king business."
As fans cheered his anti-war stance, Vedder added, "What the f**k…? They're f**king dropping bombs on each other. What the f**king f**k?"
The group then performed a cover of Edwin Starr's peace anthem War, before Vedder returned to his rant, stating, "Everyone's the f**king same, so why are people at war? Stop the f**king s**t, now! Now! Now! We don't want to give them our money. We don't want to give them our taxes to drop bombs on children!"
Vedder was not specific about who he was targeting, but he has been attacked by Israeli groups, who feel sure his frustrations were aimed at them amid their ongoing conflict with Palestinian leaders.

Machu Picchu Hotels
by Laura Skeete
In Machu Picchu itself, there is only one hotel and this is called the Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge. Since it is the only hotel in town, the prices tend to be quite steep with rooms that can cost up to US$795 overnight. However, most tourists opt to choose Aguas Calientes to spend the night in as a cheaper alternative.
In Aguas Calientes, some of the more popular hotels people stay at are Hostel Machu Picchu, Gringo Bills Hostal Continental, and even the Machu Picchu Pueblo hotel which is closer to the ruins but is also highly priced like the Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge.
During peak season, going to Machu Picchu will guarantee at least 3,000 other visitors into the area. The way to travel from Cusco to the Machu Picchu area is to take the train which will require a ride lasting from three to four hours into the town of Aguas Calientes. Entrance into the sanctuary of the ruins is US$50 per person.
There are some tourist packages available that will give you a leisurely and luxury tour throughout Machu Picchu. It is called the Hiram Bingham class trip which will cost a tourist about US$500 per person. The class trip covers the entrance into the Machu Picchu area, gourmet meals both ways, and a specific guide to bring you through the area.
Because of the history of the place, as well as the fantastic ruins to visit, Machu Picchu and Aguas Calientes is a perfect place to meet and mingle with other visiting guests. If it fits your style and budget, the best views can be gotten if you check into the Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge because it give exceptional access to the ruins and the majestic view of the mountains surrounding it.

wikiHow to Cancel a Dropbox Account
Three Parts:Backing up Your FilesUsing a Mobile DeviceUsing a ComputerCommunity Q&A
When you delete your Dropbox account, you'll lose access to all of your files stored in Dropbox. You'll want to make sure that any important files are safely backed up to your computer before deleting your account. You can only delete a Dropbox account from the desktop website.
Part 1
Backing up Your Files
1Sign into the Dropbox website on your computer. When you delete your Dropbox account, you'll no longer be able to sign into the Dropbox website or the Dropbox mobile app. This means you'll lose access to any files that you haven't already saved. Because of the way the app works, it doesn't make offline files accessible without the app. So, the best way to back up your files is to use a computer.
2Select all of the files you want to save. Hold ⌘ Command / Ctrl and click each file and folder that you want to download.
3Click the "Download" button. This will download all of the selected files as a single ZIP file that you can open later when you need access to them. It may take a while to download large ZIP files.
Part 2
Using a Mobile Device
1Open the Dropbox website in your mobile device's browser. You cannot delete your account using the Dropbox app. You'll need to visit the website.
2Tap the "Desktop version" link at the bottom of the site. You can only delete the account from the desktop version. You'll probably need to zoom in after switching to the desktop site so that you can read the links.
3Cancel your Pro subscription if you have one. Before you can delete your Dropbox account, you'll need to cancel any active Pro subscription. Visit https://www.dropbox.com/downgrade in your mobile browser and tap "I still want to downgrade" to cancel.
4Tap your name in the upper-right corner. Zoom in if you're having difficulty tapping it.
5Tap "Settings" in the menu that appears. This will load a new page.
6Tap the "Account" tab. You may need to zoom in again to tap it easily.
7Scroll down and tap "Delete my Dropbox." You'll find this towards the bottom, underneath "Connected services." This will load the account deletion form.
8Enter your Dropbox password in the form. You'll need to enter your password to verify that it's you.
9Choose a reason for leaving. You'll need to select a reason before you can proceed, but none of the choices will affect the actual deletion process.
10Tap "Delete my account." Your account will be closed and your files will no longer sync. You won't be able to access the files on your mobile device, because you cannot use the Dropbox app or website. Any files synced on your computer with the Dropbox program or downloaded from the Dropbox website will be available.
Part 3
Using a Computer

Community Q&A
If I cancel Dropbox and only have photos on it, will my photos still remain in my current computer files or do I need to copy them onto a USB?wikiHow ContributorDropbox uses a cloud storage technology. It means that your archives are stored in a server connected to the internet, and not in your computer. You would have to download all of them, verify that you can open them, and just to be sure, back them up on a USB, CD, or DVD.
Will this method remove my account once and for all?wikiHow ContributorNot really, your account will become dormant for about six months as law determines, after that, It depends if Dropbox erases everything or if they leave some data.
Dropbox is open, although I never use it. A small window appears briefly to tell me there is no more room in Dropbox when I press the mail icon. If I try to drag it to the trash, I'm told it won't go because it is open. What can I do?wikiHow ContributorDropbox might be open in the top bar of your screen (the bar that has the small apple symbol in the left corner). Look for the Dropbox symbol there. If it is there, right-click the symbol and press "quit," then you might be able to close it.
In my account settings, I do not see a "delete Dropbox" option. How can I delete my Dropbox?wikiHow ContributorWhen you click on settings, you have to scroll right down to the bottom of the page. You will see on the left: "View Billing History" and "Delete My Dropbox."

With safety the main priority Ascent has used a steel free Australian standard safety toe (AS/NZS 2210:3-2009 Approved Expoxy Fibreglass) within the full grain leather upper. In addition to this the toe cap has been reinforced with a TPU toe wear protector which is excellent for added durability within the upper. This shoe also has a unique support feature for work boots with the use of a firm thermoplastic heel counter that wraps around the heel providing rearfoot motion control, perfect for blister prevention and movement within the shoe. Leather 'fingers' over the elastic gusset protect against welding sparks. This is a totally steel free (Airport friendly) standards approved 6" shoe
Maintaining the safety standards the Delta has an anti-static cushioned insole that prevents the build up of static electricity. The interior has then been surrounded with Drilex, a moisture management liner for added comfort and breathability
Poron' (heel & forefoot) cushioning and 'Insulon' (heel) cushioning will ensure that you have a shoe that is comfortable to work in all day while the dual stability bridge 'crib' thermoplastic midfoot stabiliser provides you with the support you require. Together, these features deliver a 'workboot that you can run in'
This outsole is unique as it is oil, acid & slip resistant (water on tiles), has non marking TPU materials and 4cm lugs for grip on uneven surfaces

2009 Dodge Grand Caravan Minivan - Consumer Review

Beautiful Minivan
By jcchem on
Vehicle2009 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT 4dr Minivan (3.8L 6cyl 6A)
ReviewWe have had this minivan for only three weeks so keep that in mind. So far we've put 1100 miles on a few road trips and no complaints about the performance. Not great gas mileage in the city, but hey, it's a spacious minivan. With the stow 'n go seating you get a lot of cargo space, great for a trip to home depot. I think the exterior styling of this minivan is better than any other in the market. Can't wait to take it on an extended trip with the family.
Best FeaturesStow n' go seating allows for a lot of cargo space without having to lift out any seats.
Worst FeaturesMaybe more padding on those stow n go 2nd row seats. The center console I got could have more function. Right now it functions as the place for four more cupholders for the driver and front passenger, which doesn't make sense when there two more that pull out underneath the AC/Heating controls.

Quor'savs[2] were a sentient species with long thin legs. A Quor'sav was in Mos Eisley spaceport on the planet Tatooine when the former moisture farmer Luke Skywalker sold his X-34 landspeeder shortly before the Battle of Yavin.[1]
Behind the scenesEdit
The legs of a Quor'sav first appeared in the film Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope when it was released in 1977.[1] The Quor'sav was later named as Kal'Falnl C'ndros and his species identified in 1995 on a card in the Star Wars Legends Premiere Limited set in the Star Wars Customizable Card Game made by made by Decipher, Inc.[3] Although the species' name has not yet been used in any canon source, Lucasfilm Story Group member Leland Chee confirmed on Twitter that all Legends species names should be assumed to be canon unless stated otherwise.[2]

The Defenders Mega-Sonic cat and dog repeller is motion-activated. When its sensor detects animal movements in its assigned area, a blast of sound is emitted through its speaker unit. The sound frequency is too high for humans to register, but deters cats, dogs and foxes effectively.
It's easy to set up with its ground anchor and adjustable stand height, and there's a push button testing feature with LED activation.

there's a guy who's way taller, with better proportions, and handsomer than your boyfriend,
and that later when you become an adult, you guys start working together.
But that guy slowly begins to seduce you, what would you do?
That guy has the personality and manners too
post response:
original post: here
- ㅇ |2016.09.04 10:33
- I know that I will get a ton of dislikes but I would break up with my current boyfriend and date with the other guy.. Even if he's just flirting with me, I would want to try meeting him.. How many chances would you have in your whole life to date and meet someone like Seo Kangjoon or Park Bogum?
- 19916
- ㅇㅇ |2016.09.04 01:22
- If it were guys, and that it was Suzy or Seolhyun, they will ditch us anyways. F*ck why would I stick with that average guy if Seo Kangjoon's there? The average guy might have average personality and maybe our relationship is average too.
- 1684
- ㅇㅇ |2016.09.04 11:34
- Yah, of course we won't know if you will do that for sure but let's say you are doing fine with your girlfriend and that Seolhyun comes in the picture and goes "woohoo~ let's have a drink", you will go right?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Or let's say Suzy comes and says "oppa oppa, can I kiss you on the cheek?" you will go with her, or if IU or Park Boyoung comes crying and ask you for a hug, you will hug them right? Don't try to act all good and righteous guys..
- 401
- ㅇㅇ |2016.09.04 10:49
- To be honest, we will all go with themㅋㅋㅋ Of course there are people who won't but if a much handsomer guy flirts with you, won't you get seduced?
- 271
- ㅇ |2016.09.04 10:43
- I'm sorry but if a mannerful guy like Seo Kangjoon who's more capable than my current boyfriend and who likes me in retyrn, who wouldn't go with him?

MObile Faith Website
Welcome to MObile Faith
Catalog of Courses
For more information, contact Liz Otteson at email@example.com or 612.723.5283
Get to know our senior pastor-elect by exploring this study of the Gospel of Mark through this online course. Mark provides the first written account of Jesus' life, and serves as a source for Luke and Matthew, making it a meaningful book for study.
"The beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ, the Son of God." It doesn't get more powerful, direct, or enticing than that. The first verse of one of the most intriguing books of the Bible is also a brilliant confession of faith--and the beginning of our own story.
Cost: $20 (includes one year of unlimited classes) for new MObile Faith users
We see the cross every week in church. It is a familiar reminder of the foundation of our faith. The cross can also be fearsome, difficult to comprehend, or threatening. Its importance can be muted by our theories and theologies. We invite you to revisit what the cross means to your faith with a special MObile Faith online learning opportunity led by none other than our Senior Pastor-Elect David Lose. In a three-part series Pastor Lose explains how the cross is "the pinnacle of God's story of creation, love, forgiveness, and grace." Explore one, two, or all three of the courses at your convenience. They will serve as a powerful reminder that God knows us, loves us just as we are, and is unwilling to lose us.
Cost: $10 for the three-part series for new MObile Faith users. No additional cost for current MObile Faith subscribers.
"Making Sense of the Cross" MObile Faith DiscussionSun Mar 19, 7-8:30pm, Mpls LoungeAfter exploring the online series, come and connect with other Mount Olivet members and friends for a live, in-person discussion of "Making Sense of the Cross" facilitated by Liz Otteson.No cost for the discussion.
We invite you to explore MObile Faith as a convenient tool for growing spiritually and learning more about God. Check out the complete course catalog for more titles. Contact Liz Otteson at 612.767.2268 or email@example.com if you have any questions.
Make me to know your ways, O Lord; teach me your paths. Lead me in your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; for you I wait all the day long. Psalm 25:4-5

NIX CHAPEL, TEXAS. Nix Chapel was a farming community off Farm Road 1975 and just east of the Union Ridge Community Center, ten miles northeast of Gilmer in northeastern Upshur County. The community was first settled sometime after the Civil War and developed around a church. In the mid-1930s Nix Chapel consisted of the church, a school, and a number of houses. The school was consolidated with the Union Ridge school and later with the Gilmer district, and the church disbanded. By the mid-1960s the community was no longer shown on highway maps.

A first-rate thriller with grit and intrigue to spare.
August 3, 2007
You may be surprised by the fact that this formula spy thriller has been delivered with a matter-of-fact efficiency that proves highly entertaining.
July 26, 2007
A sleek espionage thriller that reduces the world to the size of a postage stamp. Matt Damon is terrific.
Full Review | Original Score: B+
July 23, 2007
The movie is about muscular speed and skill, and that's all it's about. Like its hero, it's blank by design.
Full Review | Original Score: 3/5
December 30, 2006
For once, a sequel would be welcome.
Top Critic
February 9, 2006
Efficient set pieces come neatly spaced every ten to 15 minutes -- just often enough to keep you credulous -- and the trans-European settings lend a classy backdrop.
March 3, 2005
...Liman is also clever enough to make the real action start when the motor stops.
January 15, 2005
Plenty of very cool fight scenes, edited such that although they are fast-paced, you can actually see what's happening.
Full Review | Original Score: 5/5
December 6, 2004
The Bourne Identity is an intense, violent, bite-your-nails-to-the-quick thriller.
Read More | Original Score: B+
August 7, 2004
Also helped immeasurably by an unusually cool score by John Powell, Mr. Liman also makes good use of the European settings, alternating between close ups of Damon's frustrated face and wider pans that slurp up the snow clad France setting.
Full Review | Original Score: B-
July 23, 2004
...puts the snap, crackle and pop back into the spy thriller.
Top Critic
May 19, 2004
Liman can uncork leap-out-of-your-seat shocks, draw out suspense scenes with malicious finesse and even ease a touch of romance and droll humor into the yarn.
Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/4
February 1, 2004
The result is an intriguingly paced thriller that knows how to milk some excitement out of smaller scenes.

Charles Pollock -Knoll—
After graduating from Pratt Institute and working with George Nelson, Charles Pollock assembled a portfolio of designs and presented them to Florence Knoll. Planning Unit member Vincent Cafiero saw promise in a leather and steel lounge chair and encouraged Pollock to keep working on the design. The 657 Lounge, as it was introduced in 1961, showed the young designer's precision handling of line, form, and materials.
Pollock again demonstrated his command of line and material when he conceived the 1250 series executive collection, introduced in 1965. His idea for the chair was to use an aluminum "rim," which outlined the chair as the main structural and design element. This rim would hold the parts together, without any further support; slots in the aluminum held the back shell and the upholstery in place, and the plastic back became rigid only after being fitted into the frame. The resulting design was an achievement in structure and aesthetics, and the chair remains a Knoll classic to this day.

James A. Michener, 1907 - 1997 James Albert Michener was born on February 3, 1907 in Doylestown, Pa. He earned an A.B. from Swarthmore College, an A.M. from Colorado State College of Education, and an M.A. from Harvard University. He taught for many years and was an editor for Macmillan Publishing Company. His first book, "Tales of the South Pacific," derived from Michener's service in the Pacific in World War II, won the 1947 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and was the basis for the Rodgers and Hammerstein Broadway musical South Pacific, which won the 1950 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Michener completed close to 40 novels. Some other epic works include "Hawaii," "Centennial," "Space," and "Caribbean." He also wrote a significant amount of nonfiction including his autobiography "The World Is My Home." Among his many other honors, James Michener received the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1977. He was married to Patti Koon in 1935; they divorced in 1948. He married Vange Nord in 1948 (divorced 1955) and Mari Yoriko Sabusawa in 1955 (deceased 1994). He died in 1997 in Austin, Texas.Jacques Cousteau, 1910 - 1997 French marine explorer, writer, and film producer, Cousteau has popularized the undersea world for people of all ages. In 1943, he was partially responsible for the invention of the Aqua-lung, making it possible to extend the duration of underwater swimming. After World War II, he persuaded the French naval minister to create a marine study center at Toulon. Several years of study dramatized the need for application research, so with a 25-million-franc gift, the ferry Calypso was purchased. Its voyage to the Red Sea resulted in a film that won the Grand Prix at the Paris documentary film festival. It was followed in 1956 by The Silent World, an Oscar winner. Ensuing explorations resulted in over 36 films. The Undersea World of Jacques Cousteau (1967) documented a scientific world cruise from the Red Sea through the Indian Ocean to the Pacific Ocean, as far north as Alaska. A 1972 television series filmed the expedition in the Antarctic and along the Chilean coast, and a 1975 archaeological expedition took Cousteau and his team to Greek waters. Cousteau has also written over 15 books, including a 20-volume encyclopedia, The Ocean World of Jacques Cousteau. He has produced numerous videotapes and has written a column, "Pulse of the Sea," for the Saturday Review, in addition to numerous articles for National Geographic magazine from 1952 to 1966. In 1974, he founded the Cousteau Society to preserve the oceans. He estimates that in his lifetime he has spent over seven years underwater, and that "during that time I have observed and studied closely, and with my own two eyes I have seen the oceans sicken."

I'd like to quit my office job, move around the globe and make money online. As I have very little experience in online marketing, I'm thinking about some in-depth education program, which is IMHO always better than reading articles here and there without guiding. What would you recommend? Which university does have good program? Thanks in advance for your time reading and answering it!
sort by best latest
In my opinion, E-marketing is good to earn some additional cash. There is possibility to make big money ofcourse but it requires maaaaany work and time...

Thanks Buddzzz for your answer. It's a little bit disappointing, cause it's very time-consuming to look through THOUSANDS of threads, forums, articles and blogs to find just FEW fragmented ideas or pieces of advice. I want to get all information and skills in one place, it is much more time-efficient. I don't need degree, I have master degree in economics, but I am really looking for some course or program or book or site which has answers to all questions about online marketing. Does it exist?

Honestly, no.
You are better off just experimenting with different areas of online income in your spare time. This is really weird that this question even popped up, because my fiancee and I were literally just talking about how her cousin went to school for journalism and still cant make any money online.
If you can write HALF WAY decent, which you can judging from your question, you dont need school.
You need to learn about SEO, keyword density/placement, traffic generation, authority backlinks and much more - but NOWHERE in this list of things you need is a college degree.
I am a full time internet marketer (who dropped out of high school) and I make a damn good profit. I love waking up to watch everyone else go to work while I just flip on my computer and see how much I've made as I slept.
Join a few marketing forums and just read other people's threads/questions/answers. I recommend www.ES5.com
You can't imagine how much you can learn just by browsing other people's threads.
Also, I recommend you get Tweet Attacks PRO & Tweet Attacks Account Creator, which you can get at:
Then I recommend getting ScrapeBox, which you can get at:
Those are LIMITED discount links.
It usually costs 97 but using those links it's only 57 dollars.
If you need any other help feel free to message me or contact me on Skype.

If you are looking to start a niche blog site and generate income from affiliate marketing and adsense, then you will want to pick a good niche that gets a decent amount of traffic. You can do this via the Keyword Research Tool from Google. This would be a long term strategy that you must consistently work at over time, but you would undoubtedly receive great results and a good income.
If you are looking to service businesses through helping them grow an online web presence, then you can start generating a monthly income right away. Again, in both these scenarios traffic to website is generated over time.

These boots were given to me by a guy who had been given them whilst he was in the navy but never actually worn them. They had sat in his wardrobe in pristine condition for 15 years, beautifully made from solid, good quality leather.
I passed them on to one of my friends in the Sudanese camp who only had a womans pair of bejewelled sandals that he had been squeezing his feet into. He was BUZZING and put them on straight away!
I wonder what story those boots will have to tell another 15 years from now!

Amphibious Warfare
Britain's grasp of amphibious warfare was one of the secrets of its empire‐building. The American colonies had ample exposure to its uses prior to the Revolution. Not surprisingly, the Continental Congress foresaw amphibious as well as shipboard uses for Marines and authorized the raising of two Marine battalions on 10 November 1775 for a never‐executed operation against Nova Scotia. The British, however, repeatedly moved amphibiously against the Americans, but the one large‐scale operation attempted by the Americans against Fort George at Penobscot, Maine, in July 1779, was a failure, chiefly because of squabbling between the naval and land force commanders. More successful were amphibious raids conducted by the Continental navy against the British in the Caribbean and even against the British home isles.
The British gave the Americans further lessons in amphibious warfare in the War of 1812 with their harrying of the Atlantic Coast, which included the burning of Washington and the failed attack against Baltimore. The war would see, however, the humiliating defeat of Britain's largest amphibious expedition of the war. Sir Edward Pakenham executed a technically superb landing and approach to New Orleans in December 1814, but in a final, overconfident attack against Andrew Jackson in January 1815, he met his own death and disastrous defeat.
In the Mexican War (1846–48), the United States made singularly enlightened use of amphibious warfare. Not only were there a series of highly successful amphibious raids and lodgments against the California and Gulf coasts of Mexico, but the conclusive operation of the war hinged on the landing of Winfield Scott's army at Vera Cruz in March 1847.
Most of the amphibious lessons learned in the Mexican War were forgotten by the time of the Civil War, less than a generation later. Landing operations, often ineptly conducted, against Confederate forts and positions on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts were an inevitable extension of the Union blockade. As the war went on, successful Union lodgments increased. The final large amphibious operation was the assault against Fort Fisher, which guarded the river approaches to Wilmington, North Carolina, the Confederacy's last remaining major port. The first assault, made in December 1864, failed. The second assault, in January 1865, after Grant's personal intervention in matters of command, was an overwhelming success.
During the remainder of the nineteenth century, the United States, increasingly involved in foreign affairs, found its navy making dozens of landings, amphibious operations in very rudimentary form, to "protect American lives and property" around the globe.
The Spanish‐American War (1898), because of the insular nature of Spain's colonial possessions in the Carib bean and the Far East, was largely naval and amphibious in nature.
Thereafter, the United States increasingly involved itself in interventions, in such places as China, Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Santo Domingo, of much longer duration than the transitory landings of the previous century. The experience of the Spanish‐American War and the increasing professionalization of their officer corps caused the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps to give at least some attention to the development of the doctrine, tactics, and techniques needed for modern amphibious warfare. These largely experimental studies had an almost comic opera testing in the April 1914 landing at Vera Cruz.
In World War I with secure bases available in France, there was no requirement for amphibious operations to introduce the American Expeditionary Forces to the European battlefields. The sole great amphibious operation of that war, the Franco‐British landing at Gallipoli in 1915, had ended in disaster for the invaders.
The experience of the first two decades of the twentieth century seemed to leave the U.S. Marine Corps with two destinies: to provide colonial infantry for the garrisoning of such places as Haiti and Santo Domingo, and to provide cloned augmentation of the U.S. Army in larger wars. Some Marine officers, most notably Lt. Col. Earl H. "Pete" Ellis, and some fewer Navy officers studied War Plan Orange, the long‐lived plan for the evantuality of a war with Japan, coupled with a study of the British failure at Gallipoli, and saw a need for specialized amphibious ships and troops and a doctrine to manage their use.
In 1934, a Tentative Manual for Landing Operations was published by the Marine Corps Schools at Quantico, Virginia. In the few years that remained before the entry of the United States into World War II, this tentative manual, tested in fleet exercises, was refined into a doctrine accepted by the U.S. Navy, the U.S. Army, and perforce all the Allies. The amphibious ships and landing craft needed to make the doctrine work also evolved, and were built in huge quantities.
The reentry of the Allies into Europe was predicated on a series of amphibious invasions, first of North Africa, then of Italy, and then of Normandy and the South of France. In the Pacific, with its vast watery spaces and limited land areas, amphibious operations were more often seizures rather than invasions. The abrupt end to the war precluded the planned amphibious invasion of the Japanese home islands.
The Korean War saw not only the amphibious triumph of Inchon Landing (September 1950) but also the very successful amphibious withdrawal of the X Corps from Hungnam (December 1950).
In the Vietnam War, there were no great amphibious assaults of defended beaches. The possibility of a great turning movement in the manner of Inchon, perhaps at Vinh, North Vietnam, was much discussed but never ventured. Amphibious techniques were used to land American ground forces in South Vietnam as a substitute for adequate port facilities, and there were many minor landings that attempted to catch the elusive Viet Cong along the coast.
The next large use of amphibious techniques was in the Persian Gulf War during the buildup of American and Coalition forces in Operation Desert Shield (1990). When Desert Shield became Desert Storm and the allies went on the offensive to recapture Kuwait, U.S. Navy and Marine forces afloat in the Persian Gulf, although unused, posed a palpable threat to Iraq's seaward flank.

amphibious warfare
amphibious warfare (ămfĬb´ēəs), employment of a combination of land and sea forces to take or defend a military objective. The general strategy is very ancient and was extensively employed by the Greeks, e.g., in the Athenian attack on Sicily in 415 BC The term is, however, of modern coinage. It is sometimes applied to the joint operations of the Allied army and naval forces in the disastrous Gallipoli campaign (1915) of World War I. Amphibious warfare was widely employed in World War II. When the Japanese entered the war on a large scale in Dec., 1941, they used combined air, land, and naval operations to capture strategic islands such as the Philippines, Java, and Sumatra. However, the Japanese landings, like the Allied landing in N Africa (Nov., 1942), encountered little opposition and did not offer a true illustration of the problems of amphibious warfare. The problem faced by the Allies in the reconquest of Europe and the Pacific islands was how to land their forces on a heavily defended coast line. It was solved by the construction of special vessels called landing craft that were seaworthy and yet capable of allowing tanks and infantry to emerge without difficulty into shallow water for landing. The typical Allied amphibious operation consisted of heavy and continued air and naval bombardment of the enemy defenses, followed by a landing of troops with complete equipment from landing craft; the landing forces were supported in the early stages by naval guns until land artillery could come into action. By use of this method the Allies were able to invade heavily defended Pacific islands such as Tarawa (1943), Saipan (1944), Iwo Jima (1945), and Okinawa (1945). In Europe the Allies made landings on Sicily (1943) and Italy (1943–44), but the most spectacular example of amphibious warfare was the invasion of Normandy by the Allies from England on June 6, 1944 (see Normandy campaign). That action was a prime example of combined movements of naval craft, land forces, and aircraft (used for offense, protection of other forces, and transport). The U.S. invasion of Incheon (1950) during the Korean War and the British and French invasion of Egypt during the Sinai crisis (1957) utilized the same basic tactics. Amphibious landings later occurred in Vietnam War and in the British retaking (1982) of the Falkland Islands. Modern amphibious assault ships use helicopters and VTOL airplanes to mount and support amphibious attacks.
