Austin Healey Sprite MKIV
This car was built 24-25th February 1969 I obtained the car in 1978 and it has been in my possession ever since. The car was used as a road car in the UK from 1978 to 2002, when it was completely rebuilt from the ground up. It was then shipped to the USA, to South Padre Island Texas, where it remained(as a road car) until 2010. It was then shipped to Brazil, where it remains to this day. The car has just received the Brazilian Antique Number Plates (Black) and is now on the road. The car is the star of the local antique car club, as there are only two of these in the whole of Brazil, and this one is a right hand drive.

Why Screeners Must Go Away
By Pala Kuppasamy
I was sitting at the Dulles airport in Washington DC after missing my connection to attend the Market Research Innovation Summit organized by Research Now with a salmon fishing event in Alaska, when this unrelated thought struck me. Why are we screening out people so badly and madly in research studies? Especially in this era of mobile and big data where you can avoid these screeners mostly if not totally?
Someone told me sometime that the screener questions came into existence when the pen and paper studies and telephone studies migrated to online studies. As you had no clue who is responding, what gender or age the person is, and since some people in some families shared (?!) email addresses, asking these 'screening and demographic' questions every time became important.
But why anymore? All big research and panel companies are profiling their members, keep these info fairly updated, and yet ask people the same questions they already have the answer for, and screen them out mid way. This is counter intuitive, euphemistically speaking.
Have you met some of these panel respondents in real life and asked them about what they think of these screeners? I have. They tell me that the screeners are the worst thing that keeps them away from taking surveys and the single most reason that disengages them with the panel. They are less disturbed about longer surveys and smaller rewards. They do derive some satisfaction in responding to surveys. They DO NOT derive pleasure from being told that they don't qualify : definitely not when they notice that their odds of getting qualified is becoming meager compared to the odds of getting disqualified.
This is why screeners must go away.
But what can make it go away? Its (1) Mobile and (2) Big Data.
Mobile is perhaps the most personal device that we use. iPhone and iPodtouch are the most personal devices of my wife and daughter respectively, that they wouldn't allow me to get hold of. Until the iPhones and iPodtouch, it was their hair brushes / combs that were most personal to them.
The point is, when mobile becomes a mainstream research data collection channel, the profile information provided by the users (say via the survey app) will reliably relate to a specific individual and can be used for pre-screening them to determine if they would qualify for a study.
Combine this with the range of behavioral data that you can collect from the mobile devices – Eg., location data, app usage data, site visit data etc., you can now avoid a large set of behavior based screeners too by prescreening with these information.
Screening questions like the ones below can be avoided and by replaced with a behavioral targeting.
- Did you fly in the last two weeks?
- Did you dine out this weekend?
- Were you at a movie hall in the last two weekends?
- Do you read CNN on your mobile device?
- Do you use banking apps on your device?
- What kind of music do you listen to?
Big data:
Big data will be extremely useful if we make those small connections amongst them.
In the market research world, we collect various data points from the respondents and its not uncommon to ask the same questions to the same respondent multiple times. Let alone the possibility of connecting the dots and making inferences. There are various reasons why things are the way it is today in the industry, but I don't think we should accept it as the best practice going forward. Especially in the era of big data.
In a broader context, the level of data we deal with in the research industry may not really qualify for being called as the 'big data', but it will get there very soon when we start to include and accumulate the behavioral / passive data we gather about respondents. There is a big opportunity to think and use this data for the respondent benefit too, besides using it to meet the client needs.
Although the term bid data has become a cliché of late, the power of analytics – both derivative and predictive – that the big data wave is enabling, has interesting applicability to what we are doing in the market research industry – at pre and post data collection stages.
Think about making meaningful connections out of all the 'non client specific' data that we collect from respondents, and using them to address the biggest annoyance of the panel members by eliminating the screen-outs by means of intelligent targeting. Oh boy, we have hit on something really big, really valuable for the research industry.

All very good points and certainly the point at which Market Research agencies and panel providers finally get to grips with profiling and screening their panel is long overdue. Until mobile phones reach the point that behavioural tracking apps no longer drain users batteries within hours I believe the key will be for panel companies to get smarter in regularly profiling their panel.
n my experience some get it, some don't and some come up with solutions which skew all their other projects in field at the same time as they fail to understand the implications of poorly implemented "big data" solutions.
The other consideration research agencies themselves need to give is working out the expected incidence of groups they are trying to reach and if their usual methodology is right – targeting a 0.1% incidence group through an online panel probably isn't going to work (even if you get 1,000 of the 500,000 you send your screener to straight lining through and ticking the right options!)
August 14th, 2012 at 7:27 am
Great – another true believer – just what we needed. I want to do a study with Mouthwash users and I need to balance the stimuli among users of Listerine, Crest Pro-Health, Store Brand, and "Other" brands – how do I do this without asking which they use?
I'm sure there are crappy screener questions being used, but that doesn't make screener questions bad, it makes bad screener questions bad.
August 14th, 2012 at 7:52 am
Great points Gregory and Steve! The behavioral tracking power issue is an issue, although by tying data into POS systems through loyalty cards or via applications like Shopkick it is certainly possible to get store and product level usage info on respondents without that complication. The secret will come through synthesizing and connecting data sets. Imagine if Google starts correlating Search, Browsing, App usage, and Mobile Wallet date to deliver surveys. They could do it pretty easily. Research Now could do the same thing by linking all that e-Rewards loyalty data with panelist social media profiles. Does that mean we won't ever need screeners for hard to find populations? Nope, but we could target much more effectively than we do today and make research more user friendly, efficient and effective in the process.

It is a lovely idea in the perfect world. Let's imagine a panel company in this ideal world. The profiling survey is 18 million questions long (to account for all brand and behaviour and psychographic differentiators among people) and client surveys are no longer proprietary because we want to use their survey questions to add to our profiling data. All privacy is lost because panel companies gain unprotected access to your credit card and loyalty card and purchase behaviours and that's done whether you like it or not. Ah, the perfect world. Wait. No. I don't want to be a part of that.
August 14th, 2012 at 10:04 am
P.S. Pala – screener questions have been around since we started doing marketing research. Whoever told you it was an online research phenomenon should be slapped, sent back to school, avoided like the plague, or all of the above.
August 14th, 2012 at 12:18 pm
I think we're still a long way from when we can do away with screeners, for a few reasons.
There's a suitability issue: some questions can't be answered by "Big Data" and need a survey, and some surveys are just not suitable for mobile, so for the time being we'll need to continue with at least some traditional surveys (regardless of the channel – online, phone, in-person or something else). For traditional surveys panel sample is often OK, but it's sometimes inappropriate to use these convenience samples. In these instances we generally won't have profiling information on respondents, so screening is a must.
Even when panel sample is appropriate, panel profiles don't always have the information you need – it would be a lifelong hobby for a panelist to fill out profiling surveys with every brand and every product they use, and marrying panel data to loyalty program data to identify brands and behaviours is another whole can of worms (for instance, there's a very good reason why ResearchNow won't let you do a credit card survey with their AirMiles panel…).
There are better solutions than eliminating screeners. For instance, when we do client-identified studies where we still need to screen (and we don't want to alienate our client's clients by terminating them) we often create a short and fun survey for those who don't qualify for the main survey. The respondent is happy, we get some marginally useful extra data, and the cost is minimal.
Mobile research and Big Data are both bringing a lot to the MR table. They are part of the future of MR, but they will not replace all traditional survey research. At the end of the day, we still need to be able to make good surveys, and that means finding a good way to screen respondents.
August 14th, 2012 at 2:45 pm
One of the few questions senior marketing folk ask about Research Methodology in a debrief is: who did we talk to? Subtext: did we talk to the right people? Screening is extremely important, and often Panels pre-profiling take you so far, but then….30% (to take a figure) of the rest of the questions need to be asked. Is that "niche"? If there's a better way to do screening, then – bring it on. But make it robust, quick, cost effective.
August 15th, 2012 at 12:17 pm
Nice POV, Pala.
I can definitely confirm that screening is not an online phenomenon and has been a part of the industry all the way back to sight screening in central locations and demo and interest profiling on the phone.
However, I understand that you are not advocating dismissing screener questions altogether when they are unavoidable to get to our target, but to utilize what we should already know about consumers to minimize the intrusion (and redundancy) of our questioning.
I'm very optimistic about the various solutions that are coming into the marketplace to give us more passive insight into consumer interests and behavior. I think this evolution of data mining will go a long way toward allowing us to garner a much better understanding of who we are talking to without having to ask a ton of annoying and repetitive questions that ultimately result in a non-rep sample of outliers who represent the small minority willing to spend 20+ minutes of their life answering inane questions for $2.
Very impressed by the fairly recent sample provider apps that provide insight into what consumers like and follow via Social Media and the demo/psychographic background that can be gleaned as metadata (though obviously updates will be required as people progress through life stages).
I believe the Google approach of asking one question at a time but building to a greater collective insight is eventually where we will evolve (via mobile). However, it probably won't happen while most of us are still driving the industry's direction …
Some people are willing to give us a window into their lives with very little censorship of behavior. This seems to be increasingly true with the younger generation that has adopted Social Networking and Geolocation check-ins as a normal way of life and do not appear to be hindered by the privacy concerns of their progenitors.
With opted-in consumers, I now have the ability to know what they have viewed on TV/online and what transactions they make. With Google Glasses and the like, I may even know what they saw, picked up and purchased or rejected at a store. This is very powerful information and can help us make some insightful marketing and positioning recommendations.
At the same time, we need to do some more research about how those who are so transparent about their behavior may be vs. the "typical" consumer in order for us to make the most effective recommendations as marketing consultants.
It is truly a new era in the industry and we need to leverage all of the information we can while making our consumer interactions as pleasant and honest as possible. This will enhance our abilty to make our conclusions based on real and heart-felt data rather than doing our best interpretation of data soup from fatigued respondents …
In the end, someone will ultimatley offer a DNA analysis of our sample that will provide more info than we could ever imagine. In the interim, we'll keep taking baby steps toward knowing a little more about our respondents without having to probe. Shorter surveys, more insight, more focus on solving the business question. Eventually we will get there …

Greg, Steve, Scott, Rob, Lenny, Annie
Great comments. Thank you.
As you can imagine, I dramatized the subject line / topic to make a point. I don't expect screeners to go away in total. Its the bad screeners that must go away.
Sometimes connecting the dots and the data points we have in hand can provide a huge life. Take the listerine example here. We are testing with a weekly tracker that asks our members to scan the basket of goods that they purchased every weekend, with their phone and the survey app. That info will tell us who is buying what.
The point Im trying to make is that mobile and big data analytics are empowering us more and more to get rid of most of the screeners and this is the time to look to reinvent ourselves!
August 15th, 2012 at 3:35 pm
If you have a behavioral tracking app that gathers all the answers you mentioned (dined out, flew, music use etc….) AND Apple will allow it into the AppStore you will have every MR company (plus the NSA) beating a path to your (virtual) door. It will also be interesting to see how much panelists will ask you to pay them to give up that level of privacy.
I totally agree that screening out respondents with "I'm sorry but you don't qualify!" particularly after 10minutes of detailed questions, is completely unacceptable. Normally you want to screen out fast and take them to a different survey if they don't qualify for the first one. Most panel companies already sample based on known profile information but sometimes you need an in-survey question because you didn't have it in your catalog before and you're in a hurry. Or it's a one-shot question for one project and it's just not worth adding it to your catalog.
August 16th, 2012 at 1:21 am
This topic has been around for 10 years. It's amusing to see it arise again with the belief that mobile and big data solve the issue. Everyone agrees that we need to get rid of 10 minute screening processes that end with "sorry you don't quality", but why don't they go away then?
First, you can't just collect 100% of all data from everyone. As we all know, panelists take surveys for a reward and the CPIs don't support a full reward mechanism for 100% of your sample. Second, panel companies take their orders from market research firms. While we can say, "no, I won't conduct that survey against my panel with that screener intact", there's certainly a company that will and then we all lose our formerly loyal customer to a company with less concern bout panel quality. The "big data" concept of storing tons of data I specialized data warehouses doesn't solve the expectation market researchers have of standardized, structured pre-screening data collection.
As for mobile, the idea that behavioral targeting can solve screening whilst searching for needle in the haystack sample is naive. I'm a huge proponent of mobile, but the scale of behavioral data collection on mobile is meager today and makes it impossible to fill quotas. Screening questions don't soley revolve around location, app usage, and music preferences. When mobile behavioral targeting can tell me what brand of toothpaste you use, without me asking you, then we'll be onto something.
But I do agree that bit size data collection, ala Google, is a step in the right direction. Yahoo began progressively profiling in the '90s when they asked you a single question every time you logged in to check your email. But I still don't think Google or Yahoo know that I prefer Crest. But I guess as of right now, they do.
August 16th, 2012 at 10:26 am
Three years back people thought it was naive to think that mobile can be used to run meaningful surveys. Still many think it is only conceptual to collect behavioral data. But things are changing at rapid pace. If we keep our eyes wide open to whats going on in the broader technology space and apply the relevant ones creatively to MR space, lot of what we think is not possible will be possible. Farmers once thought that grapes harvesting can NEVER be done by machines.
August 22nd, 2012 at 12:34 pm
Screeners aren't the issue. Poorly designed Screeners and poorly handled recruiting are the issue.
RE Screeners — don't make them the lengthy. Only ask the essential questions in a manner which does not to tip your hand. We need the right people in the research, so we must screen for them. But sometimes the screening becomes excessive fine toothed.
RE Recruiting — When someone doesn't qualify, the right thing to do is thank them for their time and say that that those are all the questions for them at this time. DON'T say you didn't qualify. This makes people feel rejected. If need be, explain the need to include people with different backgrounds/demographic or product use tendencies in the research, explain the quota for their group has already been filled, and tell them you APPRECIATE their interest and willingness to participate and will reach out to them in the future.
Lastly, mobile is great for some targeting but not for all audiences or purposes.

Another year is ending. Soon we will gather, to use the parlance of another time, to quaff carouses and remember the good, the bad and simply the passage of time.
While most will raise their glasses and voices while attempting to fumble through Auld Lang Syne (have you ever met a person who actually knows all the words?), Alpha Delts will find beauty in the same melody, but with different words that each brother can sing by heart: There's Beauty in yon Crescent Moon.
While Auld Lang Syne begins with the rhetorical question: "Should old acquaintance be forgot and never brought to mind?" There's Beauty does not ask such a question because Alpha Delts find beauty in remembering all of our brothers: be they collegiate cohorts, elders, up-and-coming members or even a brother they have just met two minutes ago. We find beauty in the fact that even if we don't know a brother, we know the bridge he has crossed and that each of us contributed to building that bridge. And finally, we find beauty in the strong ties that make it an effortless action to welcome a brother back after years or miles of distance from the brotherhood.
This beauty seen through our actions mean that any year is a great year to rally round our Alpha Delt Phi.
I hope you'll join us, wherever you are this New Years Eve to sing There's Beauty in Yon Crescent Moon. Sing it loudly and proudly with brothers, be they acquaintances or old friends.
Happy New Year!

One Dozen Red Roses
February 14, 2012 by staff
One Dozen Red Roses, Valentine's Day can be a very confusing time for flower shoppers.
With several years of experience as a florist, I'm familiar with the look of a overwhelmed customer lost in an unfamiliar world of flowers.
They wander in and slowly look around, taking note as to what the female shoppers are buying for themselves. Many are even smart enough to admit they have no idea what they're looking for and simply ask for something good in their price range.
But worry not – there are a few conventions in the world of flowers, but chances are your date will love whatever you choose. However, here are a few things to keep in mind when shopping:
Buying flowers for a friend or significant other doesn't have to be intimidating, although it does involve a little planning about price and the meaning of petal color. HOLLY YOUNG/Staff
Yep, flower prices go up around holidays. There's nothing you can do about it and bargaining isn't an option, so your best bet is to know your budget and know which florist can best accommodate it.
Higher-end floral shops are pricier than grocery store floral departments, but they also produce higher quality work.
If you're willing to spend $100, a trained florist can beautifully arrange a vase with two dozen long-stem roses, but if you have only $20 to spend, a grocery store is your best bet.
So what's the difference? The length of a rose's stem is directly proportional to its cost, so grocery store flowers are likely to be smaller and shorter, which makes for a less dramatic appearance. The floral clerks are generally less experienced too, but that's not to say they can't do a good job – just remember that an arrangement is only as good as the flowers that go into it.
Floral shops are also more likely to offer delivery services and arrangement accessories, such as vase pebbles or decorative skewers.
The upside of grocery store floral departments, however, is that you can walk in with $5 and leave with something small but presentable.
Flower meanings
By convention, different flowers mean different things. A rose is more traditional and formal (and more expensive) than a carnation, but less fun than, say, a Gerber daisy.
Roses can also sometimes be seen as more cheesy than other flowers – but Valentine's Day is the one day of the year where cheesiness is seemingly encouraged, so they are perfectly acceptable and enjoyable.
If your message is more of friendship than love, a colorful mixed bunch is more appropriate than a dozen red roses, but staying in line with your recipient's personal preferences is just as important.
Stargazer Lilies are also a great choice and suitable for any occasion. They're beautiful: elegant, fragrant and are loved by many. Make sure the orange pollen is carefully removed from the flowers though, because they can easily stain the petals and clothing.
If you're unsure of what flowers to get and are not quite willing to commit to an all-rose bouquet, a colorful mixed bunch of lilies, small garden roses, Gerbers, irises and other flowers with assorted greenery and filler makes for a wonderful arrangement that can easily be tailored to match color and budget preferences.
Color meanings
Yeah, yeah: roses are red and violets are blue. But it doesn't have to be that way.
Red roses and yellow roses convey very different messages, so your intention is often considered when choosing the right color.
This is less true for flowers other than roses, whose colors are chosen more for preference – but that's not to say personal taste doesn't matter. If your date's favorite color is purple but you want to convey love – which is traditionally expressed through red roses – the right answer may not be obvious.
A successful flower arrangement could be a combination of the two colors with matching filler and dark green foliage – it just depends on which spot between traditional and ambitious is most appropriate.
Red, yellow and white roses are the most traditional arrangements, signifying love, friendship and reverence, respectively. More ambitious arrangements could consist of multiple colors of roses or a mix of different flowers and colors.
A combination of white and red or red and yellow roses is also common when the giver has several emotions to convey.
You have a few options when it comes to presenting your arrangement.
Vases are most traditional, but there are many shapes and sizes to choose from. Standard, clear vases are most commonly used and go for only a few dollars, but decorative designer vases are also an option to dress up the arrangement.
If you have a decorative vase in mind, it's a good idea to contact the florist ahead of time and see whether they have many styles to choose from. It's also perfectly acceptable to bring in your own vase, which lets you buy the perfect one from any store (think thrifty) and save a few bucks in the process.
Bows are often left off when using a decorative vase, whereas most standard vases look best with a large bow.
Marbles, plastic jewels and water beads can also be used in vases for a fancy look that serves to hold stems in place and lengthen the flowers. Craft stores have many vase fillers to choose from, and they are also just as acceptable to bring in with you.
A second presentation option is wrapping, which most stores will do for free. Wrapping involves staggering the flowers in a plastic- and paper-wrapped bouquet, tied together with a ribbon.
This may be a good option if your Valentine already has too many vases at home or if you have a long drive after purchasing them. It's also more suitable for presenting flowers away from one's work or home, though it's not as formal as an arrangement in a vase.
If no water tubes are used – which usually isn't critical, as most flowers can last surprisingly long out of water – it's important to remember to trim the stems just before placing them in water, to allow for adequate hydration.
A third option is to present your flowers in a non-traditional container. I've seen everything from a boot to a five-sided cube used as a vase, and the results are often quite visually appealing.
Lotus seed pods arranged with flowers in a mason jar will have lots of rustic southern charm, whereas roses arranged in an over-sized champagne glass make an interesting romantic alternative.
Any container that can be lined with plastic paper will do, and the possibilities for making a thoughtful, personalized arrangement are endless.
Finally, a gift basket is worth considering in some cases. Though they are more often used for birthdays or get-well-soon baskets, they can make a welcomed alternative depending on the recipient.
Baskets allow you to combine several plants without removing them from their pots. You'll simply choose a few small potted plants to be arranged inside a basket then covered with a layer of shred or moss to hide the containers.
Water-soaked foam blocks can also be used to hold cut flowers, which allows for more creativity with stem lengths and the arrangement's overall shape.
Baskets are also nice because they can incorporate edibles and other gifts, but keep in mind that they're better suited for relatives than lovers.
Finally, flowers are usually accompanied by a card and/or a balloon, which are often tied to either the vase or chocolates. Don't be scared to think outside the box though, the neck of a vase may be the perfect place to hide a bracelet and skewered chocolates may look great amongst the flowers.

Gary G. Gremillion tells of this culinary mishap:
"In January 1983, my girlfriend and I were invited to a Super Bowl party at Bill Carville's apartment.
"Bill was cooking a huge pot of seafood gumbo when we got there, and announced that it would be ready shortly.
"Later Bill went into the kitchen to put the finishing touches on the gumbo, which including adding a little paprika for garnish.
"And that is when we heard the most god-awful screaming and cursing imaginable.
"Seems it does not take very much cinnamon to ruin a pot of seafood gumbo."
Generous reward
Chick St. Germaine, of Harahan, says that after a po-boy and fried chicken deli on New Orleans' Elysian Fields Avenue was vandalized, "the owner posted a reward of 1,000 pieces of fried chicken for anyone who could provide the identities and location of the culprits."
Get the lead out
Randolph Breaux, of Prairieville, adds to our seminar on non-alcoholic beer:
"In response to Anonymous, who wrote that the alcoholic content on a non-alcoholic beer is 0.5 percent, the beer drink has LESS than 0.5 percent alcohol.
"Furthermore, he/she stated that if you drink eight of these, you would have drunk the equivalent of one beer!
"Well, if I drank eight of these beers, it would take me about three hours to do so, and by the time I got to the third one, the alcohol in the first one would have dissipated.
"So, even after drinking eight of these n/a beers, I would not have the amount of alcohol in my system that you believe.
"And, I don't know about you, but I would rather be on the highway behind a car in which the driver drank eight n/a beers, versus someone who drank eight regular beers."
(Yeah, me too, Randolph. The only problem with the driver of the eight "unleaded" beers would be his frequent rest room stops...)
Good Grammar Dept.
"Here's another usage that needs attention," says Jane Honeycutt of our recent items about grammar:
"Things differ FROM one another; they are not different TO or different THAN.
"I believe the Brits may say different TO, but we should not take up that usage.
"I clearly remember being taught this in LSU journalism classes."
Thank-you note
Julie Morgan thanks those who were so helpful during the recent fundraiser for her granddaughter, Sadie Aitken:
"The fundraiser, held in St. Francisville, was a runaway success! Sadie, 6 years old, has been very ill since late October when she developed high fever spikes, vomiting, rashes, and skewered blood/platelet counts. She has spent many nights at OLOL and most recently at Children's Hospital in New Orleans. Her condition remains undiagnosed.
"Her mom has had to quit work (as a home health care nurse) to stay home with Sadie (and a 16-month-old toddler).
"The Aitken family truly appreciates the outpouring of prayer, concern, and generous financial support from the St. Francisville and neighboring townspeople as well as Heirloom Cuisine, the Pediatric Clinic and Audubon Cafe."
Meaty topic
More advice for Mitch Landry, seeking old-fashioned bone-in seven steaks for a gravy:
Pam Soileau, of Mandeville, recommends The Country Meat Block in Opelousas:
"He can order up pretty much ANY cut of meat his taste buds are demanding."
And George Couvillon, of Marksville, says, "Bone-in beef steaks are readily available in several meat markets in Avoyelles, particularly Marksville. I am a cattleman, and would be very happy to sell Mr. Landry some high-quality beef that he can have cut locally to his specifications."
Translator needed
Russ Wise, of LaPlace, comments on the "meaty topic" above:
"We West Virginia hillbillies have lived here for over 30 years, but still don't know all of the local patois.
"Mitch Landry's story had local terms I hadn't seen before.
"He reported having an 'envie' for steak, and wrote of wanting to find a bone-in 'seven steak.' (And his term 'beef gravy steak with a bone' is new to me too, but I don't know if that's Cajun-speak or Mitch-speak.)"
Portion control
"In keeping with a promise I made to myself 10 years ago, I refrain from eating fast food," says Francois.
"Between the calorie-loaded sandwiches and soft drinks, I thought it was a good way to lose a little weight and save money.
"With the Lenten season in full swing, out of town, and it being Friday, I was forced to stop and cure my hunger pains at such an establishment.
"Now over the years, I've heard people talking about the price of the meals going up and the size of the meals shrinking.
"They were right!"
(But, Francois, maybe this shrinkage is their way to reducing the calories in their meals...)

3 out of 3 people found this review helpful:A Madoka Magically Pleasant First Season with a Second Season that Doesn't CompareI started watching this because I was told it was similar to Puella Madoka Magica . I kept putting it off because I didn't want to have to follow a show where I had to memorize the rules to a card game to follow it. Fortunately the show doesn't go into details about the actual card game and it's really just more about the sad stories about the girl's who get the chance to have their wishes come ...Read more

This is what I think is a good combination of plot and art!When I first saw the anime page, I wasn't expecting me to like it, but when I watched the first 2 episodes of the first season, I've already started to love it.

By Rep. Pete Olson (R-Texas) - 03/28/12 12:00 AM EDT
March has been an exciting month in space exploration. The media has been abuzz with stories about future lunar missions to gather soil samples, continued development of lunar probes and record-setting numbers of rocket launches. Unfortunately, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is featured in none of these stories, which is unusual, given that the United States has long been the global leader. Sadly, these stories are all about China's escalating ambition to eclipse the United States as the global leader in human space flight.
China's lofty ambitions and recent successes are a sharp contrast to our current space program, which has lapsed into a state of uncertainty and malaise. Since the Space Shuttle was retired last summer, the United States has no access the International Space Station (ISS), a critically important investment that we have just begun to fully utilize. Our astronauts must pay $60 million per seat to the Russians for a ride on the Soyuz capsule. While NASA is working with commercial companies to develop private access to the ISS, we are years away from a viable commercial market for low earth orbit transport. Even more troubling, the Obama administration refuses to adequately fund the Space Launch System (SLS) and Multi-purpose Crew Vehicle (MPCV), which are the future of NASA's deep-space exploration.
President Obama and NASA Administrator Charles Bolden Jr. continue to laud their "vision" for the future of human space exploration, which centers on a vague mission to a "yet to be determined" asteroid in 2025 and possibly a mission to Mars at a later date. However Obama's federal budget cuts funding for the MPCV by more than $300 million, pushing back its first manned flight to 2021. This funding cut is symptomatic of his lack of commitment to American leadership in space exploration. NASA must be given the resources and funding necessary to develop a rocket capable of exploration beyond earth orbit as soon as possible. Without the SLS rocket, we will be confined to low earth orbit operations while China makes large strides toward the moon and beyond.
America's ability to compete globally is at risk if we cede global dominance to China. Every move China makes has a primary goal of expanding its military capabilities, and China has already demonstrated its ability to deploy military resources into space. In 2007, its military successfully used a ground-based missile to hit and destroy one of its aging satellites in orbit. This test illustrates China's ability to target regions of space that are home to U.S. spy satellites and space-based missile-defense systems. Space is the ultimate high ground, which must be protected. Our ability to protect our assets in space is a matter of national security that requires the United States to maintain a robust and constant presence in space, both in low earth orbit and beyond.
For half a century, American human space exploration has been a source of pride and inspiration. The extraordinary challenges of getting to low earth orbit and beyond have also motivated and accelerated the development of technologies and industrial capabilities that have contributed to the technological excellence of America. However, the president's NASA failures jeopardize our national security by relying solely on commercial partners to achieve our goals. There is an important role for both NASA and commercial space flight, but America cannot afford to continue to widen the gap in accessing space and holding the high ground. This president and the next must demonstrate a commitment to the SLS and MPCV, which will carry American astronauts to deep space and represent the future of human space flight. Otherwise, China will soon control the ultimate high ground.
Olson is a former Navy pilot and a member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee.

Toddler 'murdered in vicious attack by mum's boyfriend who claimed tot fell down stairs'
A TODDLER was murdered in a "vicious" attack by his mum's boyfriend, a court heard.
Cardiff Crown Court heard Finley John Thomas was 17 months old when he died after suffering severe head injuries.
Paramedics were called to his home in Tonypandy, south Wales, and found Finley motionless and looking "ghostly" in colour.
Doctors discovered a 10cm by 10cm swelling on the back of his head and a bruise on his right ear.
"He has shown no remorse, no regret"Roger Thomas QC
Sean Buckley, 28, of Tonypandy, has pleaded not guilty to murder.
He has also denied causing child cruelty – a charge also denied by Finley's mother Chloe Thomas, 25.
Roger Thomas QC, prosecuting, told the jury that Buckley and Thomas told emergency crews Finley had fallen down the stairs.
But in his opening of the case, Mr Thomas said the injuries Finley suffered had not been caused by accident.
He said: "The catastrophic injuries sustained by Finley Thomas were not the result of a simple fall or accident down the stairs – but rather as a result of a deliberate and vicious act by Sean Buckley that had immediately devastating effects.
"His persistent and deceitful account of what occurred is assisted by the lies of and support of Chloe Thomas."
The court was told that Thomas rang 999 on September 23, 2014, and told the operator her son had fallen from the top step of the stairs at her home before she found him lying floppy on the floor.
The prosecution said both defendants told doctors they had not seen Finley fall, with Buckley saying he was upstairs when he heard a series of loud thuds.
Thomas said her son was a "clumsy" boy and that an older bruise found on her son's ear had been caused when he had been alone in the front room.
However, the prosecution said Buckley had offered a different explanation, saying Finley had been upstairs and hit his ear on a cupboard after being knocked over by a dog.
Mr Thomas said: "Sean Buckley knows the exact truth about what he did to [Finley] on September 23.
"He has shown no remorse, no regret.
"He has lied constantly to protect himself."
The trial – which is expected to last four to five weeks – continues.

Hey there, this is just and intro to my story.
Disclaimer, I don't own their lives
Marzia grinned at the group of teens pointing at Felix. "I think I see some bros over there." She nodded her head at them. "Really? We go to this park all the time, how have they not seen us before?" He rolled his eyes, but was smiling. The park was only a five minute drive away from their home. It was a small park that had enough room for a fountain, a small garden, and a duck pond. It did have a very good paved path, which Puga loved to walk on.
They kept walking, looking at the familiar garden of ferns, or as Felix calls them, 'old people flowers'. After a few minutes they heard some voices behind them. "Hey, are you Pewdiepie?" Felix turned around and smiled at the three teenage boys. "Yep." Marzia kept walking, leaving her boyfriend to talk to his fans alone.
It was a warm morning, about 11 o'clock. Maria woke up at about 6 that morning with a sick stomach, just like the past few weeks. 'It has been almost a month, right?' Marzia thought as her uneasy stomach come on again. "Hey Felix?" She yelled over her shoulder, just loud enough that he would hear. Felix turned around, waved goodbye to the bros and jogged over to her. "Yea babe?" She looked at him, and her queasiness must of shown in her eyes, as he guided her to a bench, as he left to go get the car.
He pulled up to the side walk that was close to where he left Marzia. She walked over to him, and got in the passenger side. "Felix? Can we stop at the store? I need to get something." She planned to pull the 'girl items' card on him, even if it was kind of true. "Sure babe, I'll wait in the car." Marzia leaned over and kissed him on the cheek. "I'll be right back."
Marzia POV
I tried to get my mind off of the sneaky feeling that I had, but It wouldn't happen. The girl's isle was just up ahead, and I was tempted to turn around and run off. But I swallowed my fear, and just quickly grabbed the first pregnancy test I could find. The older woman at the counter smiled at me when she saw what I was purchasing. "That will be $2.50. Good luck!" (I don't know how much those cost.) She waved at me as I left, making me feel uncomfortable.
Felix tried to talk to me on the drive home, but I just smiled and nodded, my mind lost in possibilities. 'What if I am pregnant?' And then a horrible thought came through my mind. 'What if Felix doesn't love me anymore?' Then thankfully we pulled into the car into the garage. "Marzia, are you alright?" He gently grabbed my arm before I got out. I nodded. "I just have to use the bathroom." He frowned at my lie, but let me go.
I raced to the bathroom, and shut the door and locked it. I opened the little box. Ok. A plus means I'm pregnant. I did the test. The next six minutes were the longest of my life. I held my breath as I looked at the results. There it was, a big, fat, plus sign.

Twenty years, two months, one week, four days, nineteen hours and what seemed like the shortest trip to my children's bus stop I have ever taken. This is the time frame of years since I had my first baby. My last one started school the other day. I was so busy at the bus stop taking pictures, it didn't dawn on me how I would feel until I hopped back into my empty car. I burst out crying, sobbing uncontrollably for five minutes until I stopped to wonder what it was that I was crying about? Was this day part of my new beginning or part of my new end? I had spent many years juggling work, businesses, daycare and nannies with the others, but Ginger had been by my side since day dot, until she left me the other day.
I still had all the same daily things to do, except I didn't have anybody to share them with now. Those first few moments of loneliness were filled with a burning desire to make the most extravagant 5th birthday cake, and a middle-aged need to write a list of all the things I could do with myself. Should I learn how to drive a tractor and quadbike, so I can be a real farmer? Nah, I could see that little number escalating into slave labour. I could always go and harass local government? Nah, I think I would see more action watching kauri trees grow old. The men around here tell me pig hunting is fun? Nah, that camouflage attire would just clash with my skin colour, LOL. I hear opening gift shops is a trend amongst middle-aged women. No thanks. I've had a few offers for committees. Why on earth do people think that as soon as your last goes to school you have an undying urge to sit on committees? The truth is I know exactly what it is I want to do. I would desperately love to study millinery under a master craftsman. The selfish soul inside of me has long held the burning desire to create beautiful, extravagant couture hats. However, I don't think this is possible in New Zealand, and I just can't see my husband allowing me to run away to Paris for a couple of years anytime soon!
I live my life around the hours ticking by on my clock, and I will try my best to continue what I started all those years ago, and that is to see my children into adulthood. Anyway, don't worry about me. I won't be diving for the potato crisps and landing on the couch watching daytime TV anytime soon. On the contrary, my husband and I are in the throes of starting a tourism venture, which I will tell you about in another column. In the meantime, feel free to pop in for a coffee anytime. I will welcome you with open arms. I often find humans far more diverting to talk to than walls!

Well, you did it......

You guys ruined me for hot dogs anywhere else lol. My wife and I stopped at Rutts on our way out of NYC Saturday and all I can say is OMG, they are about the best dogs I have ever had (wife concurs btw).
We each got two rippers with relish and an order of onion rings which were also out of this world. We didn't finish one order between us. Thats how much they heaped on the plate.
But back to the dogs... I have never tasted anything like them. Don't know whether it was the deep frying or the dogs themselves or just a combination of the two. But DAYUM. And the relish was unique. It tasted like there was some kraut mixed in. Excellent. I did get one for the road without relish to experience the taste of just the dog like you guys suggested. I'm still thinking about them.
A note on ordering..you don't have to specify "ripper" if thats the way you want your dog; just say 'one or two or a hundred' and you automatically get a ripper. We got there just before the lunch crowd so I couldn't observe anybody in front me. I told the guy "four rippers with relish" and he just yelled out 'four'. You put your own relish on after they serve them. So I certainly didn't come across as a local (don't have the accent anyway). But next time I'll know. Trouble is, next time I have the hankering for a hot dog I'm going to have a 4hr round trip drive. Thanks lol.

Rutt's is located in Clifton, a few minutes away from Paterson. In fact, there is a place in Paterson called Libby's that is famous for their Texas Weiners. They use the same dog as Rutt's and cooks it the same way. I prefer Rutt's because they cook the dogs to different degrees of doneness, and of course the relish goes great with those dogs.
Glad you enjoyed Rutt's. It certainly is a different type of hot dog. Made by Thumann's specifically for deep frying. It contains soy protein and semolina. Plus Thumann's makes the highest quality franks in my opinion. The relish contains mustard, cabbage, carrots, and I think onions. Funny thing, some people hate this dog. My family won't eat there, so I have to go alone or with friends. But whatever your opinion, they are different and unique. I know a pizzeria owner who orders his meats from a Thumann's distributor. Just today I had him put in an order for 5 lbs of these franks. You must get them from a distributor as they aren't available in stores. I get them for what they sell them to Rutt's and other restaurants which is $2.99/lb. Rutt's will sell them to you for $5.00 a lb. I cook them in a deep fryer until well done (I prefer the "wellers") at 350 degrees like Rutt's does. Then I add Rutt's relish that they sell to take home. And I have the same franks that are served at Rutt's in the comfort of my home. If you know someone who owns a pizzeria, deli, sub shop, etc. that uses Thumann's meats, ask them if they will order some of the "deep fry franks" for you. Then just pay the owner what he is charged for them. Only thing is, you have to purchase a minimum of 5 lbs.

text: Hi everyone, So since I got my Mini Pro I haven't been able to log into messenger and 3's customer service are being pretty unhelpful about the problem! When I open the Windows Live Messenger app, I can put in my login details like normal and then press "sign in". The status bar loads to full and then I get the error message - "The application Windows Live Messenger (process miyowa.android has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." and then the only option is to "force close" the app. BUT if I'm logged in to Windows Live on my laptop at the same time, I get the message saying that I've logged in elsewhere. I've tried reinstalling the app and that hasn't worked. I would use a different app like ebuddy or something, but 3 will only give me free messenger if I use their official WLM version. Someone help, please! Before I have to phone the horrible 3 helpline again!

This is your life Penny Nichols....
Penny Nichols is a historical researcher working on a big-budget film in the south of France when she gets an urgent call. Her Aunt Penelope has just died, and Penny's presence is required in London for the reading of the will.
A rather lovely inheritance....
With only a slim recollection of her eccentric aunt, Penny is astonished to learn that not only is she the bona fide heiress - but she's also been invited to put her research skills to work. This time, the history she's researching happens to be her very own.
To the irresistible dare of a lifetime....
What she discovers about Aunt Penelope, a pair of wills, double lives, secret histories, and a family tree of 'vultures' is about to sweep Penny and a long-lost relative across France, over the hills of Italy, and through half of Europe on the adventure of several lifetimes. This is her life, her past, her chance at love - and Penny's going to live with the kind of passion she's always dreamed of!

"Happy escapism"
Katherine Kellgren is an excellent reader, and the perfect voice for this piece of very enjoyable escapism. I have read other novels in this series and decided that this is an author who is better listened to than read - Kellgren's lively, sometimes dry narration really lifts the prose which might otherwise be a bit cloying. But this is fluffy fun: the Riviera, art theft, an inherited house - a great antidote to grey British winter weather.
"Fast, Breezy and Thoroughly Enjoyable..."
Katherine Kellgren as narrator...she is probably my most favorite when I want a light and breezy story to listen to over breakfast each morning. The story was interesting, lively with just the right mixture of suspence and humor delivered with precision by Katherine Kellgren.
I had never read, nor listened to C. A. Belmond before so I had no basis for comparison with this author, but was certain that it would be good because I so enjoy the narrator.
This story has the same lightness and appeal as Her Royal Spyness series by Rhys Bowen and the same narrator which was great for me since I've exhausted that series and was searching for a similar adventure.
I liked the entire storyline but I guess my favorite scene was when Penelope found herself in London for the reading of her great aunt Penelope's will and once again reunited with her "cousin" Jeremy whom she had known and played with as a child on a visit to her mother's family in London for a summer.
LOL...ALL of the audible books that I have listened to have that quality! But I try and pace myself to listen to only a chapter or two each morning, although I confess that I did listen to several chapters at one sitting during the more exciting middle of the story.
I throughly enjoyed listening to this presentation and I hope that C. A. Belmond and Katherine Kellgren team up again...and soon. I've listened to a wide variety of stories with my "breakfast" and have never been disappointed by audible, nor Katherine Kellgren's delivery she has the ability to transport you to whatever she is reading with different voices for each character and an ease of confidence that brings the listener the same "lost in the story" that I get when I read a good book, or watch a good show.
"A nice change of pace"
This was a charming story about a young woman who becomes an heiress unexpectedly, and then events ensue where it all gets threatened as she has to figure out who is trying to steal it all away from her. It was very light-weight, and even though nothing much was a surprise, it was a lovely listen. I believe that the book itself was great enhanced by the wonderful narration of Katherine Kellgren, who also reads the delightful Royal Spyness series. This book was a nice treat if you are in the mood for something that is a bit of love, a little mystery and a good bit of fluff (I mean that in an endearing way). I found it a pleasant listen.
"Delightful Story with Excellent Narratation"
Story, interaction of characters, dialog, narration -- couldn't pick just one!
Penny & Jeremy (both!)
passion, keeps your interest, makes the story & characters come to life!
Aunt Penelope (although she is dead in the story) -- fascination conversation
For those who like sex, sex, sex and foul language dripping for the pages, this book is not for you. For those who like mystery and subtle romance (thereby engaging the imagination), this book just might be for you! Plus, you will not be embarrassed if your children are around while you listen to this. A very important plus for me!
"Story OK"
Story line was interesting, but the writing is very flowery and overly dramatic at times. Reader was excellent.
"A Rather Good Find!"
I am always on the lookout for a new Cozy Mystery Series.
I am huge fan of the Royal Spyness series and the Molly Murphy series (both by Rhys Bowen) and I am looking for more of the same. I thought I hit the jackpot with the Very English Mysteries series, but it turns out that one only contains 2 instalments.
I just want to sit back and enjoy a light read that doesn't make me roll my eyes in disgust because it's just insipid, cliché, trite fluff. I'm not looking for literature nor a meaty story to sink my teeth into, I just want to be entertained. I define cozy mysteries as something light and fun that never disintegrates into to stupidity… I don't know if that makes sense to anyone not in my head.
I think the "Rather Series" might turn out to be a good find! I liked the characters, the story was interesting, there was a bit of humour that made me smile, the romance was predictable yet didn't get on my nerves… I'm up for more. The series is up to 4 books (so far?) so I'll have lots more to enjoy.
Best for all is that it was narrated by Katherine Kellgren who also narrates the Royal Spyness series. I think she really adds a lot to the tone of the story; she's quite outstanding.
"Predictable and sweet"
You won't feel like you read Dickens, but this story will distract you from real life.
"Superficial & boring"
The synopsis sounds fun, but for a book featuring so many glamorous settings, this book is curiously devoid of atmosphere and therefore of pleasure. I just couldn't believe in the characters, settings, or plot and quit listening before it ended.
"Best Narrator"
Loved the story and Katherine Kellgren is a wonderful narrator. I will ne listening to the next book in this series
I listened to the whole book because I loved the storyline and the characters, but it was difficult at times because the narrator has a GHI voice (Grating, Harsh, & Irritating) and that sort of voice was in complete contrast to the main character's (a woman) personality! Penny, the main character, is described in several places as unsure of herself, timid, not much self-confidence, etc. and yet Katherine Kellgren had her practically shouting most of the story. And the thing was - - when she did other character's voices, especially foreign accents, she did them wonderfully - she spoke naturally and normally. Even when the male main character, Jeremy, was supposed to be speaking in a loud voice, it was not as grating and harsh as Penny's. I can't figure out why she portrayed Penny so badly?! And she talked in that same awful harsh voice when she was just narrating the plot. It was very hard for me to listen, and I might not have if the story wasn't so well written. CA Belmond SHOULD NOT have Ms.Kellgren narrate any more books, unless she can tone down her shouting and make her voice congruous to the character for which she is speaking. The storyline itself was written very well, and was intriguing and exciting enough for me to overlook the terrible narration and Penny's voice. I will look to see if there is another book that continues the story of Penny and Jeremy, but I hope it has a better narrator!
"Not my cup of tea"
Not what I was looking for. Trite, yet melodramatic. Characters too typecast. I felt I had wasted my time by the end.

As some of you may know, we have recently launched our new and flavorful Neocate Junior product, Neocate Junior with Prebiotics, Vanilla. One question we have heard from some families is about the use of in products. Some families have asked if our new Neocate Junior with Prebiotics, Vanilla product has any aspartame. The answer to that is 'no!' Some families have noticed that some products and formulas on the market do use aspartame, and that some products even use multiple artificial sweeteners.
Neocate Junior with Prebiotics, Vanilla only uses one type of artificial sweetener, sucralose (found in Splenda®), as well as natural table sugar. Artificial sweeteners are key in flavored amino acid-based formulas to provide a formula that tastes good without being laden with sugar to have that great taste.
There are a few artificial sweeteners on the market in the US that have been reviewed and accepted by the . Here is a list of some of those artificial sweeteners:
- Aspartame - found in
- Acesulfame Potassium – found in
- Sucralose - found in
- Saccharin - found in
Most of the flavored Neocate products use sucralose, which has a balanced sweetener profile and has become more popular in recent years. A few of the flavored Neocate products use acesulfame potassium, which works well with citrus flavors.
You may note that in Neocate Junior with Prebiotics, Vanilla, sucralose is toward the end of the ingredients list, meaning a small amount is used in the product.
In developing the Neocate Junior with Prebiotics, Vanilla, was conscious to develop a balanced sweetness profile. Some of the sweetness comes from natural table sugar, which you can see in the ingredient list towards the top.
Have you tried Neocate Junior with Prebiotics, Vanilla yet? How did you like the taste? We always enjoy hearing from you!

"Here" a film by Luca Guadagnino ft. Agyness Deyn
The Luxury Collection Hotels & Resorts, a glittering ensemble of over 75 hotels and resorts in more than 35 countries, has reunited Waris Ahluwalia with Luca Guadagnino, the director of their Golden Globe-nominated film, I Am Love to create a cinematic experience that offers a glimpse into the hidden treasures of some of America's favorite destinations. The short film stars Agyness Deyn with music by Jason Schwartzman and Woody Jackson, and was shot at three of The Luxury Collection's most iconic properties across the United States, aiming to inspire global travelers to explore and discover destinations in a unique and authentic way.
As an impassioned traveler and The Luxury Collection's newest Global Explorer, Ahluwalia, conceived the project with Luca Guadagnino, Sandro Kopp and Tilda Swinton, who gratefully acknowledged The Luxury Collection's philanthropic contribution towards the foundation of a new school for the inspired education of teenagers in the Scottish Highlands. The brand's mantra, "Life Is A Collection of Experiences. Let Us Be Your Guide," led the creative direction for the team to explore the unexpected joys of a cross-country journey. From the stately Equinox in Vermont, to the sun-soaked beauty of the Phoenician in Arizona, and across the Pacific to the legendary Royal Hawaiian, Agyness Deyn is the muse styled by costume designer Heidi Bivens with hair and makeup by Nico Guillis. The short film is produced by Waris Ahluwalia and Lucy Cooper through New York production house ALLDAYEVERYDAY.
"I am honored to work with dear friends to create such a profoundly beautiful film that highlights the American landscape and the unique indigenous experiences we seek as travelers," says Ahluwalia. "The American continent offers great diversity, great beauty and great adventure – the film captures this spirit through The Luxury Collection's exceptional destinations."

'BANG!' by Simon Cave for Vogue Italia, featuring Lily Kwong
Model: Lily Kwong
Director: Simon Cave
Hair: Raymond McLaren
Makeup: Mariel Barrera
Digital Capture: Luke Lanter – Capture This Digital
In today's world of mindless youtubing and unimaginative viral "sensations", it's rare to come across a video that is truly a work of art, and Bang is just that.
Created by photographer Simon Cave and his writer/model girlfriend Lily Kwong – who features in the video – the project breaks new ground in the world of 3D technology. By painstakingly collecting data on every curvature of Lily's face and body, Simon constructed a 3-dimensional model, to tell the story of a girl in the technological age.
Both visually and aurally stimulating – featuring an original score by Adam Crystal – the project took months to perfect and is the first 3D beauty story of its kind. "The technical aspects of the project totally consumed Simon – he was up most nights making Bang come to life" explains Kwong, "while I helped develop the concept and narrative".
The link between fashion and 3D technology is increasingly apparent – Burberry screened the first 3D runway show last year while Gucci has launched a pair of 3D glasses – and Bang is at the forefront of this totally innovative artform.
See below for the behind the scenes video and the finished product.

With Jakarta's infamous traffic and our hectic lifestyles, the upcoming Lebaran holiday is the perfect time to relax and recharge our minds, bodies and souls. With this in mind, we've narrowed down three perfect destinations for you: a tropical island, a cosmopolitan city and a little bit of both, all within close range of Indonesia. So choose a destination, pack your bags and begin your much-needed escape!
Located some 45km off the coast of Terengganu state in Malaysia, Redang Island is tucked away in the Redang archipelago. Known for its crystal-clear water and sandy beaches, the island boasts beautiful marine life such as tropical fish and coral reefs, which makes it the perfect destination for snorkelling and diving. There are also several upscale resorts that offer up comfort and luxury amenities. Visitors can fly to Terengganu, an hour's flight from Kuala Lumpur, and continue their journey by boat for about 45 minutes.
For travellers seeking a different side to the usual Asian cosmopolitan city, Taipei might just be the answer. The capital city of Taiwan not only provides sanctuary for modern travellers with its tall skyscrapers and vibrant nightlife, but it also offers rich heritage. Visitors have plenty of options, ranging from learning about the country's history at the National Palace Museum to exploring hiking trails at Yangmingshan National Park or indulging in a little retail therapy at the city's supertall Taipei 101. Tip: don't forget to visit Taipei 101's observation deck on the 89th floor and its gorgeous outdoor terrace area on the 91st floor.
Widely known as Australia's coastal city destination, Gold Coast is our pick for travellers who crave a beach break but don't want to completely lose sight of the city. With more than 30 beaches to its name, Surfers Paradise is the most popular, while Burleigh Heads is less crowded. For those who travel with families, don't forget to check out the city's theme parks: Warner Bros Movie World, Dreamworld or Wet'n'Wild Gold Coast, which is the largest water park in Australia. No visit is complete without indulging in Gold Coast's myriad dining experiences. Find the best seafood restaurant in town at The Fish House or head over to Bumbles Café for warm breakfast and delicious pastries.
Speaking of Australia, do you know where are the 5 interesting places to visit in Perth?

There are many ways you can help children and their families get the care they need.
A child with cloacal exstrophy is typically born with many intra-abdominal structures exposed. Although it is a serious condition, and requires a series of operations, the long-term outcome is good for many children.
In cloacal exstrophy, a portion of the large intestine lies outside of the body, and on either side of it—and connected to it—are the two halves of the bladder. In boys, the penis is usually flat and short with the exposed inner surface of the urethra on top. The penis is sometimes split into a right and left half. In girls, the clitoris is split and there may be one or two vaginal openings.
How does Boston Children's Hospital treat cloacal exstrophy?
Cloacal exstrophy is corrected through a series of operations. Children's physicians and surgeons have extensive experience in repairing cloacal exstrophy and supporting you and your baby throughout the process.
Boston Children's is so much more than a hospital—it's a community of researchers, clinicians, administrators, support staff, innovators, teachers, patients and families, all working together to make the impossible possible.

LOL, she changed her story after the fact. It's called damage control. I don't buy into damage control. Fortunately most sane people know what she was saying and she's finished in this state just like the rest of the truthers and paulbots are around the rest of the country. I'll take a RINO (Perry is a RINO) any day over a pro-abort or truther any day of the week. Get rid of your commie up there in Washington State. Perry will go no where nationally since he is Mitt with a Texas accent, but he's still better than a truther or pro-abort.
Changing Stories should be liar Slick Charlie Perry's made for TV movie on Lifetime.
