Need for Closure, Gender and Social Self-Esteem of youngsters
High and low Need for Closure youngsters were compared on values and self-images related to social self-esteem. In addition, gender differences were researched. Results show that NFCL and gender significantly influence social self-esteem values like eagerness for approval and tranquility, achievement pressure and orientation, individualism, independency and appearance mindedness. NFCL and gender also affect youngster's social esteem related self-images. In addition, interesting interaction effects were identified. Limitations and directions for future research are suggested.

Bainbridge Ohio Golf Courses
|Valley Vista Golf Course
Additional Golf Course Reviews:
|Wyoming Golf Club -- Every hole a challenge
|Review by: Bill
|While this course is not too tight, every hole presents a new challenge. The first, a relatively short par 5, plays uphill and normally into prevailing winds. The green sits on a plateau and is easy to miss short or right. The second, the hardest hole on the course is a long par 4 fronted by a creek. The sort par3 3rd requires a good tee shot, and it is easy to go long on your approach to this tiny green. 4 and 5 play uphill all the way and into the wind. 6 is a short downhill par 3, 7 a long uphill par three to a blind green. * a long par 5 fronted by a creek and 9 is a short par3 over a creek.

Guys, read this. Girls, make sure your guy reads this. Very slightly NSFW, but pretty much OK.
If that`s true, girls LOVE being roofied, in my experience.
Here`s a guide: be yourself and do whatever feels natural.
If a girl really cares about you, then she won`t mind if you don`t buy her things or whisper dirties in her ear at a party.
Its like the `how to know if a girl is faking an orgasm thing`...I mean SERIOUSLY?! It doesn`t MATTER...if she doesn`t like it, she should tell you...thats called BEING IN A RELATIONSHIP.
girls, mind pointing out the exact things from the article that do not work ?
cannibalism, the fastest way to a woman`s heart... literally
Communication: Don`t be embarrassed to talk about sex with your partner. Discuss things that you enjoyed or didn`t like. Especially women. Tell your man when he is doing something you don`t like or doing something you do like. This way, he can improve his technique and do everything right for you. Every woman is different.
Foreplay: Women need it and men need to learn to enjoy the anticipation and overall experience. Nothing revs up the engines better then a good long session of stroking, rubbing and licking, from both parties. It makes everyone happier!
Simple Sex Tips to turn him on:
1. Show up.
Oh God I`m lonely.
Opie FTW...
Just because you know what the book`s about, doesn`t mean that you`ve read the book. Assume nothing, properly interpret all the subtext, the trip from A to B will be much shorter. Ignore the subtext and you might not even get to B.
Thank you.
It`s one form of mutual grooming, which they`ve used to fill a few items in the list. Like chimpanzees picking fleas off each other, but more civilised.
I rather punch the guy.
I`d go further and say that most of the whole thing is bizarre and slightly creepy.
I used to apply my woman`s lipstick, but she came home early one day and found me with it on.
That may be the biggest turn-off for me. I want something less one-sided. You`re only being asked to decide what you want, at least some of the time. I find it too much like work to decide everything for both of us. Not my cup of tea.
I`d bet good money that with almost any woman, some of this list would go down well, some would seem strange to her and some would irritate her. Not the same ones for each woman. Not even the same ones for the same woman all the time.
There are no easy answers when everyone is different, but writers need to fill pages with text,
Anyway my girlfriends turn-on is comedy and maybe some rp. Like one time we tried star wars theme and I never had so much fun in sex! I stood on the other side of the room looking strained while holding up my hands. She asked what I was doing and I said "Trying to use the force to remove your clothing". And finishing with yoda "Finish, I did. Satisfied, I am. Much joy was had!"
this list is nice. i think imma try some of the more creative ones.

Vance Joseph watched his team go from cruising along to a nearly colossal collapse over a nightmarish fourth quarter.
In the end, the newest Denver Broncos head coach was presented the game ball to go with all that unexpected late-game stress.
Joseph and the Broncos walked away a 24-21 winner over the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday night when Shelby Harris sliced through and blocked kicker Younghoe Koo's 44-yard field goal attempt with a second left.
"It's a hard league," said Joseph, whose team led 24-7 heading into the final 11 minutes.
No arguments from Anthony Lynn, who also was making his head coaching debut for the Chargers. It marked the first time two black head coaches worked their first NFL game against each other — a special moment in the league's history that one ESPN sideline reporter attempted to summarize.
WATCH: ESPN sideline reporter Sergio Dipp mocked for MNF debut
There's no way this guy actually works for ESPN pic.twitter.com/6u0xEu4xPL— Eric Hubbs (@BarstoolHubbs) September 12, 2017
"There are some things we could've done better to help ourselves," Lynn said.
Philip Rivers caught fire in the fourth quarter and guided the Chargers into range for a game-tying field goal.
Koo nailed it — but Joseph called timeout just before he kicked. The rookie coach wanted to ice the rookie kicker.
Thank you…— Sergio Dipp (@SergioADippW) September 12, 2017
And God bless America.🇺🇸✔ pic.twitter.com/mYXwBNFB6g
Koo made good contact on the second attempt as well, but Harris was right there to block it with the right side of his hand.
"I'm going to be real with you: I have no clue what happened," Harris said. "I felt it. I just couldn't tell you where I felt it. It just happened."
The Broncos held Rivers and the Chargers offence to 115 total yards heading into the final quarter. But the Broncos didn't do themselves any favours with drives down the stretch ending like this: Interception (bounced off a defender's foot), fumble (Jamaal Charles), missed field goal (Brandon McManus, who just signed a new deal) and a punt.
September 12, 2017
That opened the doors for Rivers.
"We just waited too long to get started but then you could feel it," said Rivers, who threw for 132 of his 192 yards passing in the final 15 minutes. "You could feel it in the place."
Joseph kept his team focused by imploring them to remember it wasn't over. He was right.
"Everybody in the stands was getting ready to leave," Broncos receiver Emmanuel Sanders said. "We thought it was over and then the next thing you know it's a three-point game and they're getting ready to tie … and it's about to go into overtime."
Harris' heroics saved the Broncos from blowing a 17-point fourth-quarter lead for just the second time in their history.

Recycling Batteriesby Angela On May 7, 2010
Batteries are one of the most common things I see in people's homes as we are getting their spaces organized. In many cases we will fill up a small zip top baggie full of old batteries. So here is where the debate begins. Are you supposed to recycle old batteries or can you simply toss them in the trash? I have always just tossed old batteries in the trash but about two years ago another Professional Organizer told me you were supposed to recycle them. I felt so guilty for all those years I had been polluting our environment! But I keep hearing different things from different people, so it's time to get to the bottom of this!
According to Duracell Battery "It is important not to dispose of large amounts of alkaline batteries in a group. Used batteries are often not completely "dead." Grouping used batteries together can bring these "live" batteries into contact with one another, creating safety risks. "
So if you are just tossing out one or two batteries it's technically safe to throw them in the trash, but if you are tossing out large quantities you should recycle them.
Many battery stores like Batteries Plus offer battery recycling for many different types of batteries including cell phones, laptops, cordless tools, and more. There is also a company called Battery Solutions that sells boxes that you can fill with all different types of batteries. Once the box is full you ship it to the company at no additional cost to you. This is perfect for a corporate environment or a place that is using a high volume of batteries per year.
Be sure to designate a specific container for collecting the batteries that way they do not end up scattered around the house or even worse mixed with the good batteries. Keep the container in your laundry room, utility room, or garage.
Do you recycle your batteries or toss them out?
Happy recycling!

Yesterday I posted a code snippet from inside a real piece of code inside the client side of a client/server utility in a Microsoft product.
static DWORD WINAPI _PlayBeep(__in void* pv) { UNREFERENCED_PARAMETER(pv); PlaySound(L".Default", NULL, SND_SYNC | SND_ALIAS); return 0; } LRESULT WndProc(...) { : : case WM_KEYDOWN: if (!_AcceptInputKeys(wParam, lParam)) { QueueUserWorkItem(_PlayBeep, NULL, 0); } break; }
The bug here was that the call to PlaySound is synchronous. Like many Win32 APIs, PlaySound is made thread-safe by taking a critical section around the code that does the work inside the call to PlaySound (since the semantics of PlaySound are that only one PlaySound call plays at any time, this is a reasonable thing to do). Because the call to PlaySound specifies SND_SYNC, that processing is done on the thread that calls PlaySound and thus blocks the _PlayBeep call until the sound completes. The ".Default" sound is approximately 1 second long, so the call to _PlayBeep takes about a second to complete.
Unfortunately keyboards repeat at a lot faster than 1 keystroke/second and each keystroke causes a call to QueueUserWorkItem. Because there's no thread available to process the request, the thread pool logic creates a new thread to process the next work item for each keystroke. This quickly backs up and eventually you run into the 500 thread limit in the default process threadpool. So you're going to have the machine play "Ding's" for hours before this cleans itself up.
But in this case the effects were was even worse.
Remember when I told you that it was a client/server utility? In this case, it meant that it used async RPC to communicate with the server. And async RPC uses the default thread pool for on certain applications. When the response to a server request came in, there were no RPC threads running so RPC tried to create a thread in the default threadpool. Which failed because the default threadpool was full.
So the client/server utility stopped working. It took about 15 seconds of hammering on invalid keys to get the utility into this state, NOT pretty.
The first fix was to change the WM_KEYDOWN to WM_KEYUP (so that you actually had to release the keys instead of letting the typematic feature repeat for you). That didn't work because it still could be reproduced, it just took longer.
The final fix was:
static DWORD WINAPI _PlayBeep() { PlaySound(L".Default", NULL, SND_ASYNC | SND_ALIAS); return 0; } LRESULT WndProc(...) { : : case WM_KEYDOWN: if (!_AcceptInputKeys(wParam, lParam)) { _PlayBeep(); } break; }
So instead of queueing a work item, the team changed the code to simply call PlaySound with SND_ASYNC and they were done. When you specify SND_ASYNC, the PlaySound call queues the request to an internal-to-playsound worker thread, and it cancels the old sound before it starts playing a new sound (thus the sounds don't back up).
The object lesson here is: Don't queue long running items to the thread pool because it can lead to unexpected results. And even a 1 second "Ding" can count as "long running" if it can be queued rapidly enough.

About the U.S. M1A1 Abrams with Mine Plow
Developed during the early 1980's, the M1 Abrams tank benefited from the latest technological wonders of the time, giving it enormous advantage on any battlefield. The turret, being very angular and squat, had a very roomy interior. This angular design was combined with Chobham armor for excellent protection against the kinetic energy from hollow charge projectiles. The hull sides and rear panels are vertical, with only the front angled to deflect anti-tank shots. The 1500 horsepower Avco-Lycoming AGT-1500 turbine engine provides remarkable speed and maneuverability plus being regarded as one of the quietest tank powerplants available today. During the mid 1980's the M1 underwent an improvement program to upgrade its 105mm gun to the type M256 120mm smoothbore cannon. The armor at the frontal area of the lower hull front and turret was also increased, and it was given the new designation of "M 1A1". Other improvements are seen in the enlarged rear turret bustle stowage rack, a new style crosswind sensor, a revised gunner's sightmount, plus reinforced suspension and transmission unit. One of the more specialized pieces of equipment utilized on this tank is a detachable plow for uncovering and neutralizing mine fields. Land mines are a menacing problem for both humans and vehicles during any conflict, and the operations of this specialized M1A1 helped clear the way for troops following the tanks during the recent Gulf conflict.

Window Balance Replacement
A home owner from Southern California says:
August 4, 2012
I need help in identifying the right part to order. I need to replace 2 window balances. The length of my current one is 34 inches. the window weighs 23 pounds. It appears that the product that looks closest to what I already have is the 34" Series 380.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Tom from SWISCO responded:
August 6, 2012
Thanks for posting! Before I can offer an applicable replacement for this channel balance, I just need to know a bit more information about the bottom attachment. Please take a look at our 15-004 and 15-005 channel balance shoes, and note their depths. As you can see, they are 1-3/32" deep and 1" deep, respectively. Which one more closely matches your own bottom attachment?
A home owner from Ca says:
August 6, 2012
I believe it is 1-3/32", but it's difficult to know for sure with my tape measure. Is that going to make a difference since I'm replacing both balances?
Tom from SWISCO responded:
August 6, 2012
It could potentially make a difference, yes. It could cause extra friction forn the window as it's being raised if the shoe is too big. Besides, it's always best to replace your hardware with what you had installed originally.
If you are certain that it's 1-3/32" deep, though, you would want to look at our Series 385 channel balance. I would double check the measurement just to make sure, though.

Patrica Bath Laserphaco Probe Inventor
Patricia Era Bath born November 4, 1942 is an American ophthalmologist, scientist, inventor, academic scholar & humanitarian. She began her amazing rise to fame after graduating high school at the age of sixteen. She earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in chemistry from New York college in 1964. After relocating to Washington DC that same year to attend Howard University Medical School, she then received a doctorates degree in medicine in 1968. Bath later returned to her hometown of Harlem, New York to begin her internship at Harlem Hospital Center. While at this facility she developed an interest in ophthalmology mainly due to the lack of care that blacks & elderly patients received at the hospital which had no form of eye surgery available to it's patients during this time period. Bath also during this time completed a fellowship at Columbia University where ongoing research in eye surgery was taking place. She convinced her fellow professors at Columbia to began eye surgery care at Harlem, the first of it's kind. She went on to pioneer a worldwide discipline of community ophthalmology- a volunteer based outreach to bring necessary care to under-served populations which has now been adopted worldwide.
After completing her fellowship at Columbia, she became the first woman & African American to head an ophthalmology training program in the United States at New York University. She was also the first woman & African American to ever serve on the board of the prestigious Jules Stein Eye Institute at UCLA Medical Center. During her tenor there she faced extreme racism & sexism. Bath was offered an office in the basement of the facility next to lab rats but refused to take up such an insulting offer. She was eventually given a decent office space in the building. Bath was also severely limited in her ability to further her research in ophthalmology & laser eye surgery technology because her fellow colleagues refuse to take her ideas seriously. Driven by her desire to help others especially those patients she met during her stint at Harlem Hospital, Bath research took her to Berlin were she headed a team in laser eye surgery in 1983. As a chemist & scientist, she discovered lasers could dissolve human cataracts within minutes. Her discovery led her to invent a device that would allow lasers to be used in the removal of cataracts during eye surgery. Her ground breaking device which she dubbed the laserphaco probe was adopted in numerous countries in Europe, Asia & elsewhere in 1986 but because her device was ahead of its time it took a few more years for it to later be patented in 1988. In the United States, it was even more difficult because of her status as a woman & African American. Bath was the first African American woman to receive a patent for a medical purpose."The laserphaco probe is a device which quickly and nearly painlessly dissolves the cataract with a laser, irrigates and cleans the eye and allows the easy insertion of a new lens causing previous blind patients vision to be completely restored (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patricia_Bath)". Bath invention has given many victims of cataract & previous blindness a new chance at life. She has been honored for her remarkable achievement in medicine by various organizations and she is currently the founder of The American Institute for the Prevention of Blindness in Washington DC. Patricia Bath is the holder of 4 U.S patents.
Charles Drew-Blood Banks
Dr. Charles Drew (June 3, 1904-April 1 1950 ) was an American doctor, surgeon and researcher. He is best known for his development of large scale blood banks during World War II which save thousands of soldiers lives during this time period. He is also well known for his development of blood transfusions which continues to save countless lives around world today.
Thomas Elkins-Refrigerator for food/human copses & Improved toilet inventor
Thomas Elkins was a pharmacist, inventor and abolitionist from Albany New York. He would often work with local abolitionists to help former slaves escape re-enslavement. Thomas Elkins was a member of the Vigilance Committee. During his free time he would spend hours inventing various items for everyday usage. His best known invention was his 1879 Refrigeration Apparatus which was strangely also used to store human corpses. Before his invention during this time period, food was stored in container using large blocks of ice. Of course this method wasn't practical because the ice would quickly melt causing the food to go bad. Thomas invention allowed food and human copses to be chilled in a large apparatus using the evaporation of water method instead of ice. He was granted U.S patent #221,222 for his invention on April 11, 1879. He is also credited with inventing a chamber commode which consisted of a mirror, toilet and dresser.
George T Sampson-Clothes Dryer
George T Sampson (July 24, 1861-1902) was an American inventor. He is best known for his early invention of the clothing dryer. He was awarded U.S patent # 476,416 for his invention. He is quoted as saying "My invention relates to improvements in clothes-driers. The object of my invention is to suspend clothing in close relation to a stove by means of frames so constructed that they can be readily placed in proper position and put aside when not required for use." Sampson also invented a sled propeller which earned him U.S patent #312,388 February 17th, 1885.

When talking about body fat regulation we always have to adhere to the basic laws of thermodynamics. We know that increases in body fat mass happens when energy intake is higher than energy expenditure, and that we have to either decrease energy intake, increase energy expenditure, or both in order to lose weight. This basic fact has led many to believe that weight loss is all about eating less and/or exercising more. However, what we also have to account for is that the body is not a passive vehicle that just comes along for the ride. We already know that carbohydrates, fats, and proteins have a different thermic effect in the body and thereby differentially influence energy expenditure. We also know that food choices and diet composition have an impact on hormone levels, inflammatory processes, gut microbiota, reward centers in the brain, etc. and can thereby influence appetite, energy intake, and energy expenditure.
Are Gut Bacteria Making You Fat? Part III: Two Emerging Hypotheses of Obesity

so i realized there was no reason why Orca wouldn't work with grids as well, had some time today and now it supports both! the cool thing is you can hotswap them at any time. i had to make some changes to make it work (mostly parameter ranges and some other things needed due to the fact you have more control when using it with a grid).
i've updated the OP with the link to the new release (v1.2), need to completely redo the manual, but should have a tutorial video in a bit. in the meantime a teaser:
here is a video tutorial that should cover 90% of the functionality, i'll do a proper manual soon. for folks that are upgrading - there was a number of tweaks made which will change things a bit, divisors are now controlled by encoder #1, and phase is #2. you'll lose whatever preset you currently have in flash when upgrading to this. arc2 still supported, but grid-wise mostly done for varibright grid 128, not sure how / if it will work on other grids.
big thanks to monome for making it open source which really made it very doable.
you are on fire. thanks for sharing! will be testing with a monobrightness by the end of the week and report back..
wait a minute. how about using both grid and arc via a usb hub? did you try? (does that even make sense technically?)
monobright should work in theory, and VB doesn't play a big role here really, let me know how it works.
re: usb hub - no, that won't work unfortunately. there was a thread on the old forum discussing this in details, but basically as i understand it there is no code to support usb host functionality for hubs running on avr32, which is what you need. hopefully it will be possible eventually.
what would work reasonably well is an opposite of Switch - same idea but instead of being able to switch 1 device between 2 hosts it would let you switch between 2 devices. i wonder if there is something like that already...
thanks for the clarification!
I've actually seen that thread. but I thought it was more about adressing different ports individually, and I imagined this situation to be just broadcasting to several devices.. then again I really just understood half of the stuff in there, so might have another look.
edit: my statement above confirmed to be not true. no hub support.
wow, @scanner_darkly, that might actually compel me to get a second white whale. will test it on my current one first. great job, and excellent overview video. thanks for sharing!
I am having these thoughts also... @myecholalia
thanks guys!
came up with a good way to edit scales and somehow ended up making all 16 scales fully editable with a 3 octave range, all can be stored in flash memory. coding is done, but i want to test it a bit more, will post the new version tomorrow!
edit: incidentally, the scale editing mode also makes it much more clear how notes are selected!
Cool grid mod! YES
pwm would be totally possible! the current software timer resolution is 1ms, so not great for pwm audio. but you could easily implement a higher-resolution and more efficient timer structure-- (ie, array of fixed timers instead of the fancy linked list). unfortunately the pins attached to the jacks are not pins with hardware PWM, which would make this exercise trivial.
the bottleneck with the DAC would be SPI, but also whatever calculation you were doing (DSP loop) which includes pushing memory around. at any reasonable resolution this would take a lot of processing.
thanks @tehn, this clarifies things! got a couple more questions, i'll use the firmware mod thread as it seems a more appropriate place.
new release v1.3 is ready - now you can edit all 16 scales, and they can be saved to flash memory!new release is here: https://github.com/scanner-darkly/monome-mods/releases/tag/v1.3now i just need to do a proper manual - will hopefully have something much better than the old one end of this week.
[okl, i still want to think about how to capture loops in a way that would preserve them better but that can wait]
video tutorial for scale editing:
edit: removed outdated diagrams - new proper manual is available now.
forgot to mention - v1.3 also fixed a bug where a small chance was still applied even when set to 0 (i was wondering why it would still add variations every now and then...)
It's been a while since I promised to do a proper manual and I finally have a good excuse for the delay - as I was writing it I kept thinking of all the new features I should add, and there is no point in writing about something that keeps changing!
I've reached the point however where I can draw the line and happily call this Orca v2. That's quite a version jump, but justified imho by all the stuff that was added. Here is a shortened list:
I do want to add that just as much work as went into the above list was spent on multiple usability tweaks, making everything work intuitively. And in the process it somehow became not just an automatic melody generator (although it's great at that) but also, surprisingly enough, a great performance tool. Partially due to reworked algorithm which recalculates counters whenever you change parameters, so everything keeps running smoothly no matter how much you tweak it.
Off to much needed sleep, but this time there are demo and tutorial videos and a proper manual (which has the links to the videos and the release): https://github.com/scanner-darkly/monome-mods/wiki/Orca
And here is a preview of what's new in v2. Hope you like it.
i'm getting an extra white whale just to run this!!!! THANK YOU!!!!
Again: Amazing work!
So, has Orca become a grid project in the end? Or are all the features implemented on Arc as well?
it would be difficult to provide the same editing capabilities on arc. having said that i would never drop arc support from Orca, i mean it's in the name!
at this point i would say i view it as something you would use with both. i wanted to make sure that switching between the two is as smooth as possible, you can swap them at any point without interruption, you can change things with arc and continue fine tuning them with grid.
a typical scenario would be using grid to set things up and then connect arc to do variations while using the grid with MP or another WW. a couple of things i'm thinking of adding to provide better support for this would be:- use grid to define the arc presets- instead of tying up an encoder to control chance use it instead to select from grid presets, so then you set it up with grid and use arc to select between presets and add variations.
That sounds like a good plan!(I am yet to run Orca, partly because I think I will need to get a second WW for it.)
Wow! Wow! Wow! Brilliant! Just by looking at the videos and the manual this is just awesome. The work and attention that went into this free alternative freeware is just staggering. I'm so happy I stumbled into the monomeverse!!!

Transmission et inégalité des fortunes : une étude empirique de la mobilité des patrimoines entre 1800 et 1938
This paper uses historical data from the "3000 familles" survey, covering individuals in the Lower Loire departement in the 19th and early 20th century, to measure the intergenerational transmission of wealth inequality over the period 1800-1938. Our results reveal a large degree of intergenerational immobility: those whose father had twice the average level of wealth themselves die with a wealth level 1.45 times the average for their generation.

Home >> Advertising >> Article
Liril girl gives way to romantic couple sans waterfall
For decades, people have associated Liril soap with a fresh-looking, lively bikini-clad girl under a waterfall. Even the tune "laa-la la la laa' became a familiar ring with viewers. Conceptualised by ad-guru Alyque Padamsee, the advertising was a huge success. Till very recently, apart from the models, the visuals in the advertisements have been fairly consistent. Naturally, Hindustan Lever didn't want to tamper with the popularity and success of the brand.
Circa 2005. No waterfall in the Liril ad. Instead, a couple cuddling and giving themselves to the romance replaces the vibrant Liril girl.
One can't help asking the obvious question, "Why?"
The client brief for the campaign wanted a focus on 'freshness in relationships,' according to R 'Balki' Balakrishnan, National Creative Director, Lowe. He said, "As married people, there are little things that you need to do. The campaign aims to rekindle relationships and highlight the freshness in relationships."
He insisted that there is no shift in the positioning. "Liril still stands for freshness. However, freshness has to be interpreted in a number of ways. The recent campaign deals with the freshness in relationships," he said.
T Krishna headed the team that worked on the campaign. Other members of the team included Preeti Nair, Nikhil and Balki himself.
When asked why romance was chosen as the subject for the campaign, Balki justified this saying that it is a new interpretation of 'freshness' that Liril has always stood for. According to him, the response to the campaign has been "damn good."
Anand Halve of Chlorophyll believes that after a period of definite uncertainty (Liril Lime, Liril Icy, Liril Orange), the brand has decided to commit itself. "This is a good sign," he said.
He said that earlier people could easily identify with the freshness that came across through the Liril waterfall imagery. "The current Aloe Vira campaign revolves around active sensuousness which is quite different from tranquil or passive sensuousness of Aroma therapy," he explained.
Halve further argued that to the young generation, "the earlier waterfall imagery may be irrelevant." When asked whether the campaign has worked for Liril, he said, "It's too early to tell." However, there is no denying the commitment of the brand.
Raj Kurup, Creative Director and Creative Head, Grey, is of the opinion that all Lever brands are making an attempt to shift from their traditional image, including Liril and Surf. He added that Liril had for long "occupied the freshness plank which other brands have tried to exploit too." Considering this, the recent campaign is good for the brand as it will keep the market afresh, he observed. Kurup, however, didn't comment on whether it has worked well or not.
Prasoon Joshi, regional creative director, South and South East Asia, McCann-Erickson, expressed his liking for the advertisement. He said, "Liril stands for freshness. What is freshness without fresh attempts?"
He further asserted that he likes the advertisement and though the consumer will finally appreciate or put thumbs down to the advertisement, it surely is good for the brand. "If the brand stands for freshness, the advertisement should also reflect it.," Joshi said.

New Mice Created To Fight A Disease
Published: June 21, 1994
WASHINGTON, June 20— In an advance that could speed development of a drug to treat Lou Gehrig's disease, researchers have genetically engineered mice so they contract the neurodegenerative disease.
"It's a key step in finding a cure" for the disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, said Dr. Mark Gurney, an associate professor of medicine at Northwestern University. "Now we can rapidly test therapies with greater safety and also less expensively."
Dr. Gurney and colleagues reported on the new mouse in the current issue of the journal Science.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and other neurodegenerative diseases have been difficult to study because they have no true counterpart among animals used in laboratory research. No Cure for Disease
From 20,000 to 30,000 people in the United States suffer from the disease, for which there is no cure. The disease involves the degeneration of motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord, which leads to progressive weakness and eventual paralysis and death.
The new mouse has been engineered to develop an inherited form of the disease. Although only 10 percent of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is inherited, scientists said they hoped the mouse would help in the development of therapies for all types.
The scientists bred the mice so they would express two mutations in a gene that produces an enzyme responsible for ridding the body of oxygen-free radicals, toxic chemicals that have been implicated in several neurodegenerative disorders.
The research on mice indicates that the mutations, which occur in 20 percent of people who have inherited forms of the disease, instead of merely canceling out the enzyme's functions, turn it into a malevolent entity.
The mutations change the enzyme from "a beneficial one into a toxic one," Dr. Gurney said.
He said the new mouse might help scientists understand other neurodegenerative disorders, like Parkinson's, Huntington's and Alzheimer's diseases. "If we can understand the basis for neurodegeneration in A.L.S., we may be able to apply that knowledge to tackling these other diseases," he said.
Several biotechnology companies are developing potential drugs to treat amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

It comes when we don't expect it. Sometimes it's subtle. Other times it's overwhelming. Temptation. In Luke chapter 11, Jesus taught us to take our weaknesses to God in prayer. He said Lead Us Not Into Temptation. Learn more on Truth For Life Weekend with Alistair Begg! More
When You Pray, SayMartin Luther referred to the Lord's Prayer as "the greatest martyr on earth," because it was used, he said, so frequently without thought or feeling and without reverence or faith. In our Christian lives, nothing is more important, and nothing more difficult to establish and maintain, than a meaningful prayer life. Although we can find time to do just about everything else; good things, industrious things, ministry things, it seems that when we get to the issue of prayer, everything works against us. When we look at the Lord's Prayer, we realize that there is much instruction contained in it. We shouldn't think of it as something that is simply liturgical. Rather, we ought to consider it a realistic help to us in establishing our own prayer lives. As Christians we must be committed to seeing prayer become a central part of our daily walk with Christ. Prayer shouldn't be supplemental - it should be fundamental. In this series Alistair Begg explores what it means to use the Lord's Prayer purposefully, seeking to understand then apply the principles it teaches.

Sagem and Stemme present Patroller UAV
At the Paris Air Show today, Sagem (SAFRAN group) and Stemme unveiled Patroller, a new dual long-endurance surveillance drone for both defense and security missions.
Developed within a French-German industrial partnership, Patroller combines the Sagem's expertise in operational drones with Stemme's long experience in high-performance powered gliders. Patroller features an imaging system based on the Sagem Euroflir gyrostabilized optronic observation system, along with a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) by OHB, and a low data rate Satcom. Depending on user requirements, it could eventually carry other payloads, including an airborne relay and maritime radar.
In the medium term Patroller could be deployed in civil airspace for homeland protection, or border and coastal patrol missions, as well as emergency services for civilian populations.
Patroller made its first flight on June 10, 2009 at the Kemijarvi test site in Finland. During this flight the drone met its objectives in terms of flight control, automatic takeoff and landing, and transmission of video images captured by its Euroflir observation system.

Former deputy Minister of Youth and Sports, Joseph Yamin, has shifted the entire blunder that occurred before, during and after the shameful Black Stars exit from the ongoing World Cup in Brazil to his former boss, Elvis Afriyie-Ankrah.
Addressing an arranged crowd of National Democratic Congress (NDC) supporters at the Ashanti Regional Coordinating Council last Monday, Mr. Yamin sought to purge himself of the much brouhaha leading to the shambolic performance of the Black Stars at the Mundial.
He told the rapturous crowd that since he was not at the World Cup tournament, it would be improper for anybody to blame him for any error on the part of the ministry.
"You have heard several controversies on the airwaves about me during the World Cup but I didn't even go there, and I was not in the thick of affairs, so why should anybody blame me for any mishap?" he said to the youthful crowd.
As if he was referring to some inner party members, the embattled former deputy sports minister continued, "but no matter what they say about me, I still remain the regional secretary of the NDC."
Sources close to the deputy minister told this paper earlier that former Minister of Youth and Sports, Afriyie Ankrah, 'mafiad' Mr. Yamin with regard to the 'plenty soup' which was supposed to have come out of the World Cup arrangements.
"Do you know that Afriyie-Ankrah rather put his brother in charge of many committees instead of Yamin?" he asked rhetorically.
A source close to Mr. Yamin also whispered to Today that Mr. Afriyie-Ankrah gave Mr. Yamin only 10 slots for the World Cup while he took about 700 slots for himself.
It was therefore not surprising that Mr. Yamin tried to absolve himself of any blame from the Black Stars debacle in Brazil.
Mr. Yamin has been in the news for the past few weeks for the wrong reasons. And that action by the deputy sports minister led to his reshuffle by the president as the Ashanti regional deputy minister.
First, it was alleged by the current regional Youth Organiser of NDC, Kwaku Boahen that he had opened a travel and tour company which he intended to use to reap huge benefits from people who would like to travel to Brazil.
This allegation, though unsubstantiated, raised a huge question of conflict of interest against Mr. Yamin.
Then came his infamous statement that only NDC supporters would be sent to Brazil, since they worked hard to ensure the party's victory in the 2012 general elections.
Just when Ghanaians were thinking of releasing his throat to allow him some breath, Mr. Yamin then phoned into a live program on Joy FM to announce that government had chartered a flight to send three million dollars ($3m) to the Black Stars in Brazil.
The said announcement showed how shallow the ministry's communication mechanism was since it has emerged that there was no need for such announcement.
All these have added to the many errors of the sports ministry, the Football Administration and the team leading to the great embarrassment the nation has suffered so far.
However, Mr. Yamin says he is not to be blamed for any mishap that occurred at the World Cup because he was not there and was also not in the thick of affairs during the preparations.

ATLiens actually had a few days of lovely sunshine and no rain during the week. So while I stayed home and slaved away at my desk, Hubby and his nephew were able to get a little more work done on Rehab this past week. Below is the last "living room" wall that needed replacing/rebuilding. Just below the window, those dark spots are rotted wood and the "white" along the bottom is actually the bare steel hull. (Out the window you can see we have new neighbors this season)
Below are two AFTER shots. As you can see, the entire wall (and a half) have received all new studs, insulation and drywall.
Next, we will frame out all of the windows, tape, mud, sand and PAINT! The entire space will be fresh and airy white!!
All hands on deck for the paint party coming soon! So exciting!

Vegan Restaurant Tour Launches in Canada
The Taste of Vegan tour features prix fixe menus and special culinary creations from London's best vegan eateries—including the world's first vegan 24-hour drive-thru, Globally Local.
Canada's first vegan restaurant tour launched last week in London, Ontario. The Taste of Vegan tour encourages local chefs to create special dishes to showcase the variety and complexity of vegan foods in an effort to attract curious diners. "We aspire to draw vegans and non-vegans alike," event organizers said, "and establish a new food event which will support the tenets of veganism and celebrate the power of this rapidly expanding community. Participating restaurant Plant Matter Kitchen offers a three-course meal that begins with a brie cheese fondue appetizer featuring local vegan cheese brand Nuts for Cheese, a second course of linguini with mushrooms and a smoked artichoke cream, and a third course of tiramisu for dessert. Globally Local—the world's first 24-hour vegan drive-thru—offers two specialty dishes: ChickUN Chimichangas (a fried burrito stuffed with vegan chicken, caramelized onions, and chipotle sauce) and Nacho Supremacy (corn tortillas slathered in jalapeño vegan cheese). The inaugural Taste of Vegan tour will continue until November 20.

I love love LOVE nut butters. I turn to them when sugar cravings kick in- especially on a Friday afternoon or if I'm wanting something a little sweet after dinner. When I did an 8 week sugar free program, peanut butter was my saviour!
This recipe would also be delicious with any nut butter, so if you or your child has a peanut allergy swap the peanuts for hazelnut, cashew or even almond butter.

Podiatry medical billing certainly has been one of the most intricate physician practices when it comes to medical billing and coding. One vital element for conducting a sustainable podiatry medical service is to increment the Revenue Cycle Management via Outsourced Podiatry medical billing services.
Download Policy: Content on the Website is provided to you AS IS for your information and personal use and may not be sold / licensed / shared on other websites without getting consent from its author.While downloading, if for some reason you are not able to download a presentation, the publisher may have deleted the file from their server.
Why MBC…
Our group of professional medical billing and coding experts has the knowledge and abilities needed to effectively work on denials to provide the podiatry physicians with profitable inputs. This helps physicians with overseeing, and diminishing the most regularly observed denial types. Staying updated on all fronts of medical billing and coding, we have narrowed our focus to the different principles and rules issued by the insurance suppliers, to help our customers in streamlining their income and lessening their rejection and denials, so all the parties involved get paid quickly.
As a certified third-party medical biller and coder, we deliver high quality results in every step of medical billing procedures. The main aim of our work structure is to lower the number of denials, reducing the AR days, checking for billing and coding errors among others.
1.Coding according to procedures and billing necessities:
An astounding example of particular procedure type requirements deal specifically with routine foot care. In numerous previews, routine foot care (11721) must be billed with a systemic condition for payment. Indeed, even beyond that, Medicare claims are required to have the Primary Care Physician and Date Last Seen on the cases specifically for any reimbursement by any means. It is important that the doctor office and the billing agency be in clear and direct correspondence to ensure that this information is obtained and transmitted.
Many of the procedure codes charged for podiatrists have set post operation period that insurance carriers will observe to the precise day. Do remember that routine foot care as a rule requires a sixty day lapse before the patient can be seen again for the procedures. Accordingly, two things are assured, one is receiving the reimbursement on time, and second is it does not hamper your Revenue Cycle Management.
3.Using appropriate modifiers:
As you must be aware that many of the CPT codes for podiatry are particularly related to foot/toe/nail, it is imperative to note this information on the charges at the time of administration. This incorporates assigning the right foot (LT/RT), the toe (T1-TA), notwithstanding the class findings (Q7-Q9). Insurance providers require that specific CPTs have this information keeping in mind the end goal to review the case and process it for payments. It is a petite, however crucial step in the billing procedure.
If your Podiatry center or hospital is still not aligned with these latest coding and billing developments and procedures, a wise thing for a profitable outcome would be outsource your medical billing work to certified offshore entities. This way you would not only lower the operational costs, but increment the RCM as well.

I came up with the database design for the comment table. Is this table considered to be good enough to handle a comment or can it be improved?. Please take note that the originatorId and recipientId is related to the memberId in the member table.

The ParentCommentID should be NULL for parent comments. Then you can remove the CommentType column: if the ParentCommentID is NULL then it is a parent, if not then it is a child.

Unanswered: A Difficult One...(I Think)
Hello Everyone,
OKay, i have a slight task that i need to complete and i dont have enough knowledge of access to put it off.
As it stands, i have a login dialog form, which uses a table containing member details, where the users select their name, and click "login".
That works fine, and when the user clicks "Login" the form "Login Home" is opened. The Login Home form has the users Account Information In there.
I need to know how i can do the following:
I need to some how "jump" to the same record as was chosen when the user logged in.
If the user chooses "Derek Jones" and clicks login, i need Derek Jones's record to be displayed when the Login Home form is opened.
Thanks in advance,
I am able to upload my database if you need it.

You don't want to jump to the record, you want to "filter" for the record. An easy way to do that is by adding the filter criteria to the openform command. Look up openform in Access help for details.

Or you could change the "Login Home" form's Record Source SQL to include a WHERE clause that restricts it to only that user. That would be better if you don't want users to hit "Remove Filter" to get to everyone again.
You'd have to do it with your Login button's code.Owner and Manager of

Update: There was a trackback here to Brian Williams's blog, but unfortunately, due to the 100s of comment spam attacks each night, it got lost.
So 2 years ago this day, I called my mom to tell her I made it to the Visual Studio homepage for my Visual Studio tips and tricks, just to share my excitement. Then she says, equally excitedly, "the big one is coming." (it's a New Orleans thing to be excited about hurricanes). I turned on the TV to see "Katrina" for the first time. My life would never be the same again.
2 days later, my blog became an accidental Katrina Information portal for all things related to the western section of the Mississippi Gulf Coast, and I followed suit 6 weeks later as an accidental relief worker.
And now, 2 years later… Brian Williams will re-interview my family. It will air Tuesday, August 28 on King5 at 6pm PST for those in Seattle.
Waveland vs Katrina Cliff Notes:
- USA Today described my hometown of Waveland, Miss (7,000 people) as The Town that Vanished. If you've ever been to Ocean Shores.. that's Waveland (although Waveland is a lot warmer)
- A single cell phone tower survived, allowing my mom to give me daily updates from the beach, which in turn I posted on my blog… the story starts here.
- NBC Nightly News Brian Williams interviewed my mom and dad 2 months after the storm. Video and Transcript from Oct 4, 2005.
- There's just no way to describe the devastation unless you were there. My diary post Blogging from Katrina Ground Zero: Waveland, MS – Day 1 is my best attempt.
Expanding on "speed" as described in David Whyte's book Crossing the Unknown Sea… it's been 2 years since Katrina, but it might as well as happened yesterday, and I've been in Seattle for the past 6 years. It's like we've all been a race car in the red, flooring it for 2 years, trying to go as fast as we can, to get back to what we had as fast as we can, or just try to stay in constant motion, because speed blurs everything around us, not having to accept where we are at.
But we can't maintain this speed, and things start to break down. Our 120% becomes 100%, then our 100% becomes 80%, and the next thing we know, we're flooring it, but barely going over 30mph. Our speed disappears and we're forced to finally take a hard look around us. a very hard look.
And now that I'm literally barely moving (I've been injured, unable to walk for the past 4 months), I'm forced to realize just how homesick I truly am. Some things will never change – Mardi Gras, Saints, etc., and some things will never be the same – 411 Water Street, Waveland, Miss.
But if there's anything to be learned from this, it is that life always goes on. always. Eating at a soup kitchen, looking around at the various families sitting beside you, watching as parents entertain and educate their little kids, you realize that life will always go on, it just depends how you chose to go along with it.
I am so proud to be from the New Orleans area. I am so proud to be from a small town that never gave up hope and survived. I am so proud of my family for rebuilding.
Renew Rebuild ReNew Orleans. (and geaux saints!)

An argument which ended in a shooting at a party in Los Angeles killed 3 people and wounded a dozen others.
Three people were killed and a dozen wounded in Los Angeles early on Saturday after an argument at a party resulted in gunfire, a police spokesman said on Saturday.
A man and a woman are in custody over the shooting, which occurred shortly after midnight in southwest Los Angeles, a police spokesman, Officer Mike Lopez, said. The two people being held were not identified.
"From what I understand, they're the ones responsible for the shooting," Lopez said.
Three men died at the scene, and both men and women were wounded.
Conditions of the wounded range from critical to stable but serious, Lopez said.
The shooting took place at a party being held at a home that was serving as a makeshift restaurant.
A man and woman left the party after an argument, then returned and gunfire erupted, Lopez said.
"It's a bloody scene with shell casings everywhere," LAPD spokesman Sergeant Frank Preciado told the Los Angeles Times, adding that there were about 50 people in the restaurant at the time of the shooting.
A firearm was recovered at the scene, Lopez said.

You'll find 63 movies and 159 photo sets nestled each in their own section. The babes are showing off nylons and pantyhose of all types and colors. You have black patterned ones, electric fishnets, opaque reds, whites and greens and of course tan hose. Some of the babes perform a simple, sexy striptease, others rip them up to get at their pussies with toys and still others engage in some sucking and fucking with the horny cameraman. It's a grab bag of nylon fun.
The scenes are all downloadable in average-quality Windows Media files and the vids last about 10 minutes each. The more hardcore ladies suck cock like pros and it's all shot POV style, so it feels like you're the one running your hands over that hosiery and getting a good, close-up view of that chick's ass as she rides dick. Some of the chicks stop after the blowjob and slurp up the cum that spurts out of that very erect penis.
The photo galleries can be saved in Zip files and also watched in a slideshow. I tried to set up a slideshow of a brunette cutie in sheer black pantyhose, but the pic never changed and there are no arrows to manually change the slide myself. Also the pics open quite large, which is great, but you have to scroll to move around the pic and see all the nylon-clad chick has to offer. I think it might be a little efficient to make the pics smaller in size so you can see the whole image without using the scrollbar.
In terms of updating, the two latest and upcoming updates are listed on the homepage. If I go by those dates, it looks like you get three new items a week, but it could be a set of photos or a video. That said, I get the feeling that this site either rotates its content or takes an older set/video down when they post something new. I can't be sure of this right now, but thought I'd give you a head's up.
If you freak over pantyhose and also like some panty porn, you'll really going to enjoy the bonus content from All Panty Pass. You can sign into 11 more sites when you sign up and these include Best Nylon Girls, Cute Panty Girls and Jeans And Panties.
Pantyhose fetishists will appreciate the variety of hose and action on Legwear Passion. I could muster up a little more passion for this site if the videos were a little higher in quality and they maybe offered a streaming format, though.

Cooking with the Cobb is like a great love-match it requires patience, technique and understanding.
A sense of humor is a huge advantage too. But like the perfect partner the more time put into the relationship the greater the rewards. Unlike love the unique Cobb Premieroven cooker, which looks like a shiny escapee robot from Star Wars, comes with instructions on how it works.
If only human relationships were so simple. The new $349.90 Cobb Supreme with carry bag is the latest addition to the Cobb range. This is the seriously sociable (up to 10 mouths)version of the Cobb concept. It is certainlyfamily-size. Two chooks and vegetables can be on the go at the same time firedby two Cobble Stones or between 12 and 20 charcoal briquettes.
The Cobble Stones are Cobbs easy to use $15 for fivefuel source and have their own built in ignition point in the middle.
The variation in thenumber of briquettes suggested depends on the size and weight of the food andpersonal cooking preferences.
The Cobb Supreme comes standard with a base, inner sleeve, fire basket, Teflon coated grill grid, lifter,dome cover with 100 percent silicone handle and a carrier bag. A roast rack is available as an optional accessory.
GoSee found the quality of the fuel -briquettes/charcoal used can affect estimated cooking time.
The Cobbs healthy, hot; moist cooking strips fat from roasts and grills and drops it into the Cobbs marine grade steel steamer moat for disposal when the Cobb is cleaned. It is a feature which has to be good for a healthier body.
The tastes and flavors it creates from its recipe book in its eco-oven process must be tried to be appreciated.
34 The Cobb fits Silvergull and looks good too
7 Heatbeads take 25 to 30min before you can cook.
2 Use Heatbeads in the fire basket. They work.
9 Foil wrapped potatoes and carrots in the Cobb moat.
1 Three Firelighters in place in triangular formation
6 Allow for firelighter flare.
27 Grill plate in place and lid retained by the strop and rubber
25 Ready for marine use Lock-pin in Cobb coupling
35 The Cobb packs away neatly
20 Cobb ready to assemble with instructions and recipes
3 Redheads firelighters work too. The veggies are ready wrapped in foil.
4 Firebasket and Heatbeads in place.Two-prong handle and tongs make Cobb work easy
8 At 15min Heatbeads start to show grey white.
11 30min and its Cobb cooking time.
12 Veggies have steamed an hour. On goes lean prime pork.
14 Foil wrap veg sausage-style to fit Cobb moat.
15 30min on the Cobb produces healthy low-fat savory meat.
16 8 hours later. All done ready for cleaning. Note the fat cooked out of the meat in the Cobb moat.
17 Clean the Cobb like a pot.
18 Take care not to loose the spacers
19 The spacers fit here.
21 Pop-rivets hold marine adapter base
22 The steel arm and seat clamp to the boat pushpit. The steel pin locks it in place.
23 Lock-nut on stainless restraining strop
24 A firm pull puts the strop in place. The rubber ring slips over the cobb cover handle
26 Bullseye bubble shows the Cobbs spot-on
28 Heat beads warm up for about 30min
29 Roast and trimmings
31 Looks good so add a little water to the moat
32 Heavy rain did not stop the Cobb in its sock wet suit
32 Roast ready to carve
33 The handle (front) clips in to lift the grill plate
