The House version of the Education Trust Fund includes an extra $48 million for teachers' health insurance compared to the Senate budget. That decision came at the expense of a 2% pay raise that the governor had called for, as well as a one-time 1% bonus the Alabama Senate approved.
"We just don't have the revenue to pay for everything" Rep. Bill Poole, R-Tuscaloosa said.
Poole chairs the House Ways and Means Education Committee.
"I think that this is a responsible budget."
The spending plan is $5.9 billion overall and includes extra cash for textbooks, school supplies, and transportation. The Department of Education had urged the legislature to provide additional funding to hire more middle school teachers. The committee approved budget includes funding to hire a 400 new teacher units at the middle school level across the state.
Democrats were vocal with their frustration in the education budget.
"I think this is a travesty that this doesn't include a raise" House Minority Leader Craig Ford said.
Ford attempted to provide teachers and retirees with a 4% raise but the Republican dominated committee voted down his amendment with concerns over keeping the budget balance and below a spending cap.
Governor Robert Bentley's budget included a 2% raise for all teachers and Postsecondary employees as well as full funding for PEEHIP, the Public Education Employees Health Insurance Program. He tweeted last week that any budget that doesn't include those two items would be met with a veto.
Compared to the Governor's budget, Rep. Poole called the committee approved budget "responsible."
Democrats both praised and criticized the Governor's budget, saying they were pleased he included the raise for teachers but also added that his budget went around the spending cap that he signed into law in 2011.
The House of Representatives could debate the entire education budget as early as next Tuesday.

Angus T. Jones, best known as Jake Harper on "Two and a Half Men," is talking about why he left Hollywood behind and his embrace of Christianity.
Now sporting a scruffy beard and long hair, Jones, who lives in Colorado and attends the University of Colorado in Boulder, spoke with Houston television station KHOU about his decision.
"Extra's" Terri Seymour caught up with Charlie Sheen for an exclusive interview about his "Scary Movie" co-star Lindsay Lohan, ex-wife Brooke Mueller, the controversy surrounding his recent photo with Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, and the extension of his hit show "Anger Management."Charlie revealed that he bonded with LiLo over being tabloid favorites. "She's a good gal and I've been through a lot of the same stuff," he said. "It's like I told her when I met her, just don't take it so seriously, just lead with humor and lead with your heart and the rest will work itself out."
Actor Angus T. Jones shocked fans when he slammed "Two and a Half Men" in an online video, a rant now dubbed by Charlie Sheen as his "Hale-Bopp-like meltdown."Was Angus brainwashed? "Extra's" famed body language expert, Janine Driver, author of "You Can't Lie to Me," doesn't think so. She sees Jones' behavior as controlled and confident in the video, posted on YouTube by the Forerunner Chronicles church.
Actor Angus T. Jones issued an apology to the cast and crew of "Two and a Half Men" after slamming the hit show in a YouTube video.The online rant was a surprise, considering Jones has played Jake Harper on the show for nearly 10 years… and now earns approximately $350,000 an episode.
"Extra" was on the set of Ashton Kutcher's "Two and a Half Men," where the returning-to-prime-time star says he's not filling any big shoes for his part as billionaire Walden Schmidt. "I'm just playing the character written for me. And hoping some guy's gonna get off work and turn on his television on Monday, and take a load off."
The star, who has replaced Charlie's spot in singing the "Manly Men" theme song in the show's open, notes his new surroundings of being on the set of a sitcom. "You can't really screw around when you've got a live audience. You're either good or you're not and they're gonna let you know right away."
A new promo image was revealed for the upcoming ninth season of "Two and a Half Men," with Ashton Kutcher, Angus T. Jones and Jon Cryer. Check out the look on Jon's face!
"Two and a Half Men" star Angus T. Jones, 16, stands as the highest paid child actor on television, making $250,000 per episode.
Also scoring high in the survey, conducted by the New York Post, was "iCarly's" Miranda Cosgrove, also 16, who pockets $180,000 per episode. Selena Gomez, 17, of "Wizards of Waverly Place" earns $25,000 per episode. Their parents won't have to worry about paying for college, that's for sure.

Hope this is in the right section, wasn't sure where to put it.
We use RoyalTS in our office and are still pondering a new password storage system. Well it appears it can be done here and seems silly to have another piece of software if we don't need it.
The thing which I am struggling with, is - if I set a connection for a webpage, set all the auto connect options etc. then click on it - sometimes it opens on the dashboard, where there is an option then to 'open in browser'.
Sometimes it opens in a RoyalTS window. I would like it to run in my standard browser as it is just more practical.
Anyone got any ideas how?
Thanks :-)

I am about to start full time at WKU. I live with my family right now but will be living on campus for the semester. I like long walks on the beach, preferably on the shoreline, and preferably with a female. ;) I absolutely love playing, coaching, and reffing soccer. Soccer is my hobby and my passion. I want to be a Physical Therapist when I grow up...........errr...well I probably will never grow up, so basically I just want to be a PT. I love helping people in any way I can. To try to be the best friend I can be to people and I'm learning every day how to be a better one. I can't wait to be married and spend my life with somebody who I feel like a lifetime isn't enough time together. I want to have kids. I don't care how many because I know I will love them all with every nanometer of my being.And most of all I love God. Our relationship isn't always the best but I do have this underlying trust in Him that I can't explain but I know He is in control so it is all going to be ok. I would be nothing without Him. It's Him that I owe everything to. I wouldn't forgive without Him forgiving me. I wouldn't love unless He showed me how. And I only pray that I can be like him in every way as a friend, brother, son and father (someday).I am blessed with one of the best families in the world. And it's all thanks to God and my parents. I love my family so much and I don't know where I would be without them. They are my world and my strength. Without them I'd be lost. I am blessed more than I know and it's all thanks to God.

On May 3, the British blog bordeaux-undiscovered.co.uk published an entry stating that Brad Pitt was to star in the movie version of The Billionaire's Vinegar. On May 4, thedrinksbusiness.com picked up the story, citing no sources, adding that David Koepp is directing and the movie is set to be released this fall. On May 8, Decanter.com, rehashed the same details, citing no source. From there, it was off to the races, retweeted and picked up by wine sites from Canada to India as well as Brad Pitt fan sites and even Robert Parker.
Sorry to burst everyone's bubble but Brad Pitt is not going to star in the movie. And the movie is nowhere close to coming out this year.
I called David Bloomfield of Escape Artists Entertainment at his office in LA. Bloomfield is the executive producer of the film. I asked if the Brad Pitt item was true.
"It's literally someone in the blogosphere picking up something that was published two years ago," he said referring to the nytimes.com page that was the source of the original blog post.
And David Koepp as director? Nope. Bloomfield said, that there's "No director. No talent. No new news."
He added that the project is still officially in development and that it is "not dead." But there's nothing to report. "I hope there will be soon."
Level 1 Entertainment has purchased the movie rights to "A Vintage Crime," a story by Mike Steinberger about wine counterfeiting that appeared yesterday on VanityFair.com. Edward Milstein and Bill Todman Jr. co-founded Level 1, which has released two comedies ("Grandma's Boy" and "Strange Wilderness") as well as a thriller ("Rendition") with houses 20th Century Fox, Paramount Pictures, and New Line Cinema.
Milstein has several ties to the story. He is a wine collector and overlapped with Kurniawan, who is at the center of the story and indicted, awaiting trial. Milstein is co-chairman of Emigrant Savings Bank; a previous suit alleged that Kurniawan defaulted on a $3 million loan to Emigrant. Milstein owns or has a stake in Remoissenet Pere et Fils, a Burgundy producer, as well as The Sorting Table, a Napa-based wine importer. He also heads his family's real estate company with his brother.
"Eddie is a huge wine collector who knew Rudy, and likely bought a few bottles from him, and when we got a peek at this article, Eddie flipped for it and we bought it preemptively," Todman told Deadline. "It has that Catch Me If You Can thriller aspect, where you can't believe this guy got away with this for so long, ingratiating himself into this billionaire's club and living the high life, at least for awhile."
Since the project will need a screenwriter, a director, and casting decisions before it can start shooting (if, indeed, it ever makes it that far), that gives us plenty of time to weigh in with our choices. Who do you see in the leading roles? It will be interesting to see if they keep a young ethnic Chinese in the central role, or if they opt for more of a George Clooney, Johnny Depp, or Gary Oldman type. And how about Jean Reno as Laurent Ponsot? Or do you think the story is too narrow for the silver screen?
Okay, only about five years late on this. But, thanks to site reader Quizicat drawing a parallel to our recent discussion of moscato, I've learned that I missed an episode of "30 Rock" where wine featured prominently. Jack Donaghy is delighted to have his name on his own sparkling wine from Long Island and he shares it with Liz Lemon. They toast each other, take a sip–and then both spit it out and retch, with Liz scraping her tongue with her fingers. Jack wonders how he is ever going to sell 10,000 cases of this wine…
When Tracy likes it, Jack has the idea of getting the hip-hop star Ridikulous (played by LL Cool J) to flog the wine in a performance. In the spirit of full disclosure, Jack informs Ridikulous that Robert Parker wrote that "Donaghy Estates tastes like the urine of Satan after a hefty portion of asparagus."
But how many points?!?
You can see the episode on Netflix streaming or buy it on Amazon or iTunes.
"Ahhhhhh, the French!… Champagne…" The outtakes of this Orson Welles ad make the rounds periodically, with this one racking up 854,000 views thus far. And, yes, it is funny when you turn on the outrageously bad closed captioning…
Check out this "Hitler yelling" parody that several people tweeted to my attention. Even if it's 18 months old, it's still sufficient for your Saturday LOL needs.
"You, with such a smaller part of me than you realize, we have changed the wine world."
That's how Gary Vaynerchuk concluded what he said was his final wine video. (He had previously announced stepping down from his position at Wine Library.) I was once a guest on Wine Library TV, aka the "Thunder Show," and the show had a fun run for five years. I wish Gary sunny skies in his future endeavors.
But what does Gary's departure mean for wine video? After five years of gaining lots of traction on WLTV, he has come to define the space, with his gonzo style and spitting into a Jets bucket. Wine and TV are a difficult blend to master. Gary had his own distinctive style. It will be interesting to see what others can do with wine video, from finding a business model that works to the style of entertainment.
Meanwhile, the Jets dump bucket has to go into a wine Hall of Fame.
"Totally Uncorked" [TIME]
"A wine guru for the YouTube era" [Slate]
"The Pour – This Wine Critic Can Drive People to Drink" [NYT]
Okay, this isn't going to knock the Old Spice guy out of the advertising Hall of Fame. But, hey, it's the best wine ad I've ever seen! I raise a glass of 14.4% alcohol zinfandel in the ad's honor.
Addendum: cork marketers, take note!
UPDATE: I posted a few more details about making the ad.
In a memorable scene in Casino Royale, James Bond sipped Chateau Angelus on a train while meeting Vesper Lynd. The St Emilion maker of bold blend of merlot and cabernet franc paid for the placement in cash and wine.
Jean-Bernard Grenié told me today that the laws prohibiting advertising wine in France made the producer pursue a strategy of product placement in movies. Their agent in Paris had a connection to the Broccoli family, producers of the Bond film, and sent them a case. Grenié said that they "loved" the wines. Angelus paid "some cash and some wine" for the placement. Grenié did not specify the amount of either. Co-owner Hubert de Bouard had previously told decanter.com that the impact on sales was "unbelievable."
Will it be James Bond's wine of choice in future movies? "Yes," Grenié replied, adding "as long as somebody doesn't pay more than we did."

Domain theft is nothing new to Web-hosting business and once you lost a domain to a theif, next few days are going to be sleepless for you. One of my Bloggers friend Hesham domains (FamousBloggers.net and other domain) got hacked by a hacker and at the top of it, the guy who stole his domain, made him an offer of $999 to get the domain back. You can read the complete story here. Most of newbies, who starts with domain, they are not aware of domain security features available on their domain manager account and they miss out many important settings, which should be there from day one.
Well, as we say Prevention is better than cure, in domain business once you lost the business, you will be sitting on the thin line of getting your stolen domain back. Infact, chances are very less and there are many legal procedure involved. Here I'm sharing some of the domain security settings, which you should enable in your domain right now. These settings are available on most of the domain registrar I use like Godaddy, Namecheap, ShoutMydomain.
Domain Security settings for Newbie:
So, you are the proud owner of over 100 domains and once fine day you woke up and realize your domain manager account is missing all the domains and that's what we call WTF moment. Have you taken care of all the privacy and security settings offered by your domain service? Specially, I hate Godaddy as transferring domain from one Godaddy account to other is easy and anyone can do it, once they get access to your account. So, lets start with the security measures for securing your domain name:
As we say "Sometime we are so busy in learning advance stuff..that we forget our basics..!!! A mistake which we should never make!!". Start with creating a secure and strong password. Make sure it's a mix of alphanumeric with special characters. Keep changing your password after every regular interval. I have set a date for maintenance of my blog, and that's the day when I change all my passwords and update them. Basic but most important step.
Another thing is, many of us hire freelancer and companies to work on our site and we give them access to our domain panel, make sure to change your password when work is done. Also, check all settings like primary email and who.is of your domain to make sure nothing has been altered.
Don't use Emails to direct access to your Domain account:
How many times you Emails from your domain registrar to login to your account to avail discount and similar notification Emails. If you are tech-savvy, always check the header of Email or check the URL which you are using to login to your domain account. Phishing is most common form of social-engineering and this is what hacker do to get your account access. They will send you an Email which will look exactly the same as your domain newsletter mail, and in most of the cases people click and login to their account and lose access. It's better to login to your account by directly typing the login URL in URl field such as
- http://www.godaddy.com
- http://namecheap.com
Enable Privacy: Buy Who.is guard:
Until unless you have a company with a cyber lawyer, enable Who.is privacy for your domain. This will make sure no one can find contact details of your domain. Your who.is record will be updated with an anonymous record. Most of domain registrar like ShoutMydomain, offers free who.is guard for an year.
Though using who.is guard every year could be a costly affair for newbie bloggers, in this case make sure Email name used in who.is info, should not be the same as your domain access Email. Domain hackers usually target such Email first by various Social engineering skills.
Domain locking feature:
When you are done purchasing your domain, make sure to take advantage of Domain locking security feature. This will avoid any unauthorized transfer and domain changes. You can easily find this setting in your domain panel. Here is a screenshot of Godaddy domain manager panel.
Use separate hosting and domain account:
One of the biggest domain mistake webmaster do is, using same hosting account for domain and hosting. I will never recommend this, as once hacker get access to your hosting account, you will lose access to your domain and there is no option of restoring. My suggestion is to, use different domain registrar and also take daily backup of your hosting account on 3rd party services like Amazon S3 or dropbox.
Anyhow, I'm sure these steps will help you to add extra layer of security but even though if your domain is hi-jacked, it's always a good idea to keep domain name transfer dispute form ready. Here is one handy link for Godaddy domains, which you can use in case of your Godaddy domain is Hi-jacked. Here is ICANN guide on what to do when unauthorized domain transfer happens.
I hope this quick tutorial will help you to increase domain security and fight against domain theft. If you have more suggestion and ideas to avoid domain stealing, do let me know via comments.

Barbara R. Cooksey, CSP, ARM
Loss Control Consultant
Bouchard Insurance Agency
Clearwater, FL
Barbara R. Cooksey, CSP, ARM is a loss control consultant for Bouchard Insurance Agency, Clearwater, FL. She assists her commercial clients with their safety efforts by providing such services as: review of existing programs, providing safety program templates, mock OSHA and DOT inspections, employee and supervisor training on a number of topics chosen by her clients, site safety inspections. Cooksey has 33 years in the safety field. Prior to joining Bouchard five years ago, she was a loss control consultant for CIGNA and ACE/ESIS insurance carriers. She holds a BA degree from Centre College, Danville, KY in Applied Mathematics and Economics.
An ASSE member since 1979, she has held the chapter vice-president, president and delegate position for the Tampa Bay chapter. During her two terms as president, her chapter received the Shooting Star award and is nominated for a Chapter Star award for the 2009-10 year. As vice-president she chaired the Professional Development Conference committee for the local PDC.
Cooksey is also active in the Executive Women's Golf Association having served for 3 years as the education chairperson for the Tampa Bay chapter.
I have been an ASSE member since 1979, however for the first 26 years, I rarely attended meetings and maintained my membership in order to get CSP points. When I changed jobs in 2005, my current employer would only pay my membership dues if I was active in the chapter. As I attended meetings, I met some wonderful safety professionals in the Tampa Bay area and beyond, finally learning the true benefits of being an ASSE member.
Communication between Society and members continues to be an issue. In today's world of email overload, are all of our members reading and digesting the information provided by Society? During my tenures as a chapter officer, I read those emails and discovered little known resources. As Area Director, my role will be to be sure the chapters are aware of those resources and use them to the fullest extent.
Along with improving communication between Society, the region and the chapters, I also believe it is our responsibility to give back to our communities and to share our knowledge with community schools/organizations.Finally, I want to help chapters find a way to serve more members. With expense and travel challenges, it is time to use technology to reach members that cannot attend a traditional meeting. Our members and chapters have strong leaders and exceptional technical skills. Let's harness those resources to make the South Florida chapters a shining example to the rest of Region IV!

I have been through their site. Call me retarded, but I can't find out how to charge an amount to someone's credit card.My boss used to have a machine to run a credit card through, but he cancelled his subscription to the service once he moved to a smaller building.I have a paypal account I've used numerous times over the past three years. I would like to charge a sum of money for studio services rendered, using my paypal account. I used to work for a place that processed all credit card payments through paypal.Is it possible to simply put one's name, credit card information, etc into paypal and have the charge made, or is there more involved?Thanks.--Macbook repair in NYC
There's a link for FUNDING source, You can add a credit card with that.--Mom and Crockett...... I miss you both!
You need a business account with PayPal, and then add the Virtual Terminal service to the account which carries a $30/month fee--Lightning Bolt Technologies
The person with a credit card needs their own account.Then money can be sent from that account to your account.You can't just add a card and send money to yourself. You need two accounts.--For those of you playing a drinking game.... MY FRIENDS!
Try using their Payment Recommendation WizardYou can also call them. Customer Service: 888-221-1161--The only thing we have to fear is Fear itself...... and spiders.
SORRY, I misread that.
You will need to click "Request Money" at the top center. From this page: "You can request a payment from anyone with an email address even if they do not have a PayPal account."Basically, without a virtual terminal account and such, you can not enter credit card details by hand for sales. This goes against there merchant agreement I believe.If this is just a one time thing, Request Money is probably the easiest. Since you can make an invoice in the 2nd step and everything.--Block Accounts | UseNet Now
I process credit cards on my website through PayPal using their "website payments standard" API. It has no monthly fee, just the normal per transaction fees. It can be a bit of a PITA to do and most likely not something you can do in short notice, especially if the customer is standing there waiting.What you could do once the site is up and running is create a generic customer login for your site and login as that. The site doesn't even need to be publicly accessible but it does need internet access so it can talk to PayPal. Create a few "items" on the site for various dollar amounts depending on what you charge. This works best if you charge a flat fee based on services rendered. For hourly wages just add one and adjust the quantity needed to match the number of hours on the invoice. Run through the checkout process and checkout as if you were a normal customer and fill in the customers credit card info.Like I said, it's not something that will be easy but it gives you a way to take credit cards without any extra monthly fees.
There is google checkout. »checkout.google.com/seller/fees.htmlLooks like all fees are per transaction and they don't charge anything monthly.
Google checkout and I had a falling out a few months ago when they ran off with $1700 of my money with no customer support phone number so I could scream heads off.This is really going to be a one time thing, so getting a whole new type of account is overkill. I'm going to try request money and see how that goes.Thanks.--Macbook repair in NYC
Yes. I learned a valuable lesson, though - never use a money handling service in which there is no way to contact or speak to people the people who run it, or the people who work for the people who run it.--Macbook repair in NYC
You can also process CC payments through Quickbooks for half what Paypal charges: »quickbooks.intuit.com/product/ad···_kit.jsp
I've contacted PayPal via phone several times and they've been extremely helpful. It's been related to my PayPal account and limits though, nothing fraud related.

Movie star George Clooney tells Rolling Stone magazine in its latest issue that he contemplated taking his own life in 2005 after a stunt injury while filming "Syriana" – a movie that later won him Oscar and Golden Globe awards for best supporting actor.
"I was at a point where I thought, 'I can't exist like this. I can't actually live,'" Clooney said in the interview with the magazine. "I was lying in a hospital bed with an IV in my arm, unable to move, having these headaches where it feels like you're having a stroke, and for a short three-week period, I started to think, 'I may have to do something drastic about this.'"
The severe pain led Clooney to think about ways he could carry it out.
"You start to think in terms of, you don't want to leave a mess, so go in the garage, go in the car, start the engine," he said. "It seems like the nicest way to do it, but I never thought I'd get there. See, I was in a place where I was trying to figure out how to survive."
Fortunately, Clooney had surgery that successfully repaired the injury to his spine.
In other highlights from the article, the 50-year-old Clooney talks about losing his virginity at 16, growing up in the shadow of his TV newsman dad, and his current relationship with former WWE wrestler Stacy Keibler, 32.
"She can do whatever she wants," Clooney said of Keibler tweeting about "smiling all day long."
"I rarely tell anybody what they should be doing with their life."

George is definitely going to star in the Rock Hudson story. Jeffrey Jones will star in the Jerry Sandusky story.
Perfect casting, or what?!

Do celebs just recycle each other stories. That headline is tired. @jimbob, George is this generation's Rock Hudson. I notice George has a new beard.

Surprised to see so many comments that he's gay. I really don't think he is. I think he tried marriage when was younger and saw that it requires compromise and takes a lot of work. I don't blame him for wanting to remain single and bed beauties of all ages. Never heard that he was gay before these comments.
As to the suicide, first of all – some of y'all ought to be ashamed for wishing he'd done it. And, yeah, he's rich and has an incredible life. If he hadn't been in terrible pain and was just thinking of wasting his life, I'd be right there with you cracking jokes. But, this was related to being in excruciating pain. Makes sense that he'd want a way out.
November 14th, 2011
2:56 pm
I, too wish he would come out of the closet. As for Tyler Perry, he is more obvious than George and proves it every time he plays in one of His movies. Oh and then there is Kenny Chesney. Come on out and just live your life.
November 14th, 2011

If you are in a hospital bed for months and months, then understandable. Come On man, you were there for a couple of weeks. That's like someone saying they did hard time after bailing out of jail in 3 days.

Wow. I never considered him to be gay at all. I guess it is possible. Just thought he liked to live loose and fancy free.

Some of you are idiots! Living in chronic pain means not being able to enjoy anything…. nothing is beautiful or fun when you are hurting. As a migraine sufferer I can tell you what it is like to be on a beach in the bahamas and the only thing I wanted was for someone or thing to put me out. So all of you who make comments like "o he could just go to italy or play somewhere" just realize that you are lucky to never experience pain that no one or thing can help with…. just ask any lady in labor if she wants to go the e.r or hang out on the beach…bet money she'll tell you the e.r. -thats pain and just one example of the pain you just have to endure and no amount of money or scenery is going to make it better.

CC, I suffer from migraines and have had some that would keep me in a dark room for two or three days but never even considered suicide. Been flat of my back with my hip out of joint for three days before could get to orthopedic doctor for relief and never considered suicide. I don't wish either on my worst enemy but not grounds for suicide.

Sure is a lot of wealth envy in these comments. He's only rich because he worked harder than all of you. Please be sure to thank him for paying far more than his fair share in taxes you layabouts.

Have any of you ever seen Stacy Keibler? I don't think a gay man would be chasing her around and those of you that stated that lavish items will cure bad health, it just don't happen. If that was the case no rich person would ever die.

November 14th, 2011

Rich and famous people can be unhappy just like everybody else. Money and Italy and hot girlfriends don't buy happiness and don't cure depression or pain. I think some of these statements make him a bit more of a real person and not just a plastic 'star'. Have some compassion!
November 14th, 2011
5:37 pm
I don't think George is gay. Not everyone wants to marry and divorce several times in their lifetime. And I can understand what he means about spinal pain. I've had two serious back operations and at times the pain is so intense it makes you sweat. It even hurts to use the bathroom. You posters are the prime reasons why our kids are bullies. Jerks!
November 14th, 2011

Celebrities are normal people put on pedestals by their fans, and have similar thoughts and emotions.
On the other matter, Tyler isn't hiding behind a 'hot' girlfriend. The others like George, Ryan etc. are.

Didn't that last Clooney girl-friend – these girls never last beyond two years – say she had a father-daughter relationship with him?
November 14th, 2011
8:10 pm
My migraines have made me want to blow a hole in my head and I have several a month, in varying degrees of severity. So yeah, I can understand wanting to commit suicide because of pain. To be fair, I also have bipolar disorder so I am a little "off" (not making fun of anyone but myself…have to take it light or I will feel worse about myself than I need to). I don't think pain cares what kind of money you have.
As for who may be gay, Tyler Perry is as gay as the 4th of July and I wish he would quit playing with us. The fact that he is playing Alex Cross pisses me off. A lot. He is nowhere near alpha-male OR sexy. I have never thought George Clooney was gay but I guess I could see if if I closed one eye real tight, squinted, and used a magnifying glass. He would lose his place at the table if he came out as gay, I think, because he is cast as the sex symbol and folks would probably be pissed at being led astray/lied to. I wouldn't care because I haven't slept with him. If it was Denzel, I'd be pissed because he would have ruined all of my fantasies.

Sorry BB, but "Money and Italy and hot girlfriends" do, in fact, = happiness.

muscle spasms occurring around spinal damage make one fearful of standing or using the toilet due to extreme pain. if you live alone, then crawl to the door and collect your pizza but don't eat too often! excercise, use heat therapy and fight to come back and REJOICE- if you can. i think that an opportunistic organism (like the herpes virus) couples with nerve damage and requires you to ride it out-while you think of ending it- but be careful of ops. OOWIE!

For those who endure migraines … seriously – look into using magnesium oil, its cheap, natural, cannot really be taken in damaging amounts. You spray it on … a few times a day. Look up The Magnesium Miracle on Amazon by a MD who is an expert in the field.
Clooney is a giant far left hypocrite and uber uber smug. Thoroughly loathsome man.

Gosh, these people are obsessed w/ themselves. Does everything have to be made public? If this is something you went through discuss it w/ close family, friends or get help. It's like they have to keep up w/ the kardashians. Nothing stays quiet gotta talk, talk, talk.

Clooney was raised Roman Catholic so whatever "problem" he's having not being "fruitful and multiplying" is more than understandable: He's just working out his own salvation as each of us must.
That being said, and I wish him the best (hoping for him to awaken to Holy Matrimony and healthy offspring one day), his service to Our Nation in the creation of "Syriana," "Good Night and Good Luck," and "Michael Clayton," even if he were to pursue no other artistic endeavor, mark him as a great man and a great American worthy of the respect and appreciation of all true patriots.

most of you people need…to just…get a…life. depression can last longer than the hospital stay. no one cares when you insult each other, (not much, anyway)–but you are such haters! you do not live his life and money aint ever bought love nor self appreciation.

Too bad it didn't work out for George.
November 18th, 2011
2:06 pm
I have Trigeminal Neurgial and have two nerves rubbing against the major 5 th cranial nerve going into the brain. It causes serious face pain and migraine. TN is call the suicide disease or the worse pain know to man. I have this for 17 yrs. It took 44 docs 9 yrs to find out what I had while I live in pain that no one person should have to endure. The mess that I had to help me for those 9 yrs were quite heady and beyond morphine. When I found the right doc my life took a turn. But I still lived with face pain and 24 hr headache. Without the correct mess and my husband I do not know how I would have ever gotten out of bed. I finally have had 2 brain procedures that may help 5% to 35 % of the pain. I thank God for even 5% relief. There are so many people. Who suffer from chronic pain and for George to complain that he thought of taking his life is such an insult to all of the millions of people who carry on with their lives for theirselves and for their families. George's comments were of a week man. The rest of the article shows what a silly boy he is. And go
W dare he think that he can comment on world affairs when I have noted his comments are not original but just the repeated lines he is fed. He should spend his time reading history and open his mind before he speaks. If you are interested go to YouTube and look up Trigeminal Neurial and see what this horrible affliction is and understand what pain really is for so many. Thank for understanding my need to vent in view of such comment by George.

My name is Jared. This blog is designed to teach what I know and what I am learning about homebrewing.
I caved and spent $20 on a bottle of DFH Fort.
Anytime I cellar beer I like to buy at least two bottles. One of these bottles is consumed immediately while the other ages for 12 months. This beer was too expensive for me to justify buying two, so I wont find out how it tastes until 2013. At 18% ABV this will age wonderfully and I very well may let it go for a few years.
Maybe I can live vicariously through one of you until then. Has anyone else tried this?
Oustanding. Just can't believe how much this beer worked. Just a crazy amount of fresh raspberries in every sip. Upfront...

Three Powell residents — Dr. Valerie Lengfelder, her husband Matt Lengfelder and their business partner Christopher Cox, are seeking the license. Dr. Lengfelder would own 80 percent of the business, with Matt Lengfelder owning 15 percent and Cox the remaining 5 percent.
They want to open a restaurant/liquor store called Wyold West Brewing Company at 221 N. Bent St.
According to a design submitted to the city, it would contain a dining room, banquet/meeting room, kitchen and storage area, dispensing room, restrooms, a tasting/demo room and a liquor store, as well as an area identical in size to the dining room that is listed as "reserved for future use."
Sunlight Mattress & Appliance was at that location until it closed last year.
Michael Bailey of Riverton, who does business as Bailey Enterprises, has also applied for the license. He plans to open Pit Stop 13, a convenience store and liquor store, at 555 S. Fair St. The business would be divided into two sections: a convenience store and a liquor store.
It would be located at the site of One Stop Motor Sports, a Polaris dealership that plans to relocate. The address has also housed a Burger King and a movie rental store.
Bailey Enterprises owns several convenience stores, including two in Powell, Pit Stops 11 and 12. Pit Stop 11 at 733 E. Coulter has a liquor license. Bailey said he bought those in late 2012.
He said he is not sure what will happen to his plans if he is not granted this license.
"That's going to affect our plans on what we do. That's when we would have to decide," Bailey said. "A liquor store would be a vital part of what we plan to do."
Both applicants were required to pay the fee for a retail liquor license in advance. They were given pro-rated prices based on the license being issued Monday.
Bailey paid $832.96, while Wyold West's prospective owners paid that same price plus another $549.72 for a second dispensing room, since the liquor store would count as one as well.
Whichever applicant does not get the license will have their money refunded, said City Clerk Tiffany Brando. Both businesses were also required to pay $180 to have legal notices published in the Powell Tribune. That fee is not refundable.
All four applicants wrote on the city form that they have no felony convictions and have never been convicted of alcohol-related offenses.
City Administrator Zane Logan said the council may make a decision during Monday's meeting. Mayor Don Hillman and the council took home the applications after the Feb. 18 meeting, so they will have two weeks to consider the choice.
"I would assume they will (decide)," Logan said Tuesday. "They could table it."
While this is the final retail license available, there are other options for a business to sell liquor by the glass, including a bar and grill license. But both businesses plan to open liquor stores and would need a retail license to do so.
Logan said the burst of business interest in Powell, with The Red Zone opening, Hansel & Gretel's, now H & G's, changing hands, a proposed new restaurant just south of it, and these applicants, is welcome news.
"It shows people might have more dispensable income, or at least these folks feel there are signs that show that," he said.

Noah grew up in a home that had his whole life planned, his father wanted him to be a football star when all noah wanted was to be himself, he went along with it and kept his real self hidden even from his best friend, Lance. When the apocalypse started Noah and Lance teamed up and fought zombies together.
Lily May
She is half vampire half werewolf but can only turn into an actual wolf, unlike Jacob or Noah. She's been a loner for quite some time and is desperate to find a place to settle down in.
After his entire family was killed by the apocalypse, he tried to outrun the spread of the disease, little did he know he'd end up at a high tech safe haven. They knew this would happen, the disease. He didn't even ask them when they said they had been planning for years to prepare (Twist? I think so.) They helped him back onto his feet then hired him as a guard. It's only his 8th day on duty when he sees huge wolves roaming around the area. One had icy blue eyes and a white coat while the other was a dirty blondish color and wonderful grey eyes. the next day he can't think of anything else except the white one. The day after that an entire pack comes...

Noah_ After taking for ever to find her file there was a copy of the birth certificate with Lance's name on it," Hey I found it." I then looked for the DNA test original copies.
Captain_ " Too harsh, we are in the middle of an apocalypse and you say im being to harsh, your really have gone soft." I said and rolled my eyes. " My decision still stands Dayton step it up or you and your girlfriend will learn the hard way." Two guards came in and grabbed him to take him to the 'interrogation' room.
Noah_ " Lance won't believe us he is all buddy buddy with her now, she laughed when he ran off after she told him and punched me square in the face, she knew what she was doing." I clenched my fist, " And now Amber has to raise Cole all on her own." I said quietly as I shook my head, once this got out I was going to kill that nurse and Lance for even believing that Amber and I would ever do that to him.
Captain_ " This is not a fight you want to be in Dayton, believe me." I said and then he took off, running out of my office and he was probably going to look for that girlfriend of his, but I will give him this slack, because this will work out my way soon enough.
Emma_ " What wrong?" I asked Dayton he looked like he was scarred just not for himself, I knew this couldn't be good, great more drama.
Noah_ I thought about what Emma had said, maybe she was right, but what if she was wrong and lance did not care, I couldn't stress that we show him the proof soon but what if he doesn't believe it?
Emma_ My eyes widened," What? What are you going to do?" I asked, I could tell he was hiding something he still had not mastered closing his thoughts.
Amber_ I went back to The room Lance and I shared only to find that he wasn't there, tears streamed down face and I fought back sobs, Cole had fallen asleep I layed him down and paced the room back and forth, trying to compose myself. My heart was shattered like glass and I felt like I had no one to help me through this.
Ridely_ " Hi, Lance." It was hard to come up with words to say because he did not have a shirt on at this moment in time," Look I just came to say I am terribly sorry for what has happened."
Amber_ I paced the room thinking about everything that has happened, I had never seen Lance that angry and upset, everything in my life was crashing down.
Emma_ " Great, just great." I groaned," Why can't he just leave us alone." I added, I guess just more drama added to my life.
Ridely_ " Why don't we go for a walk, it might help for soothing your nerves." I said, kind of awkwardly, I might have a chance if he accepts.
Emma_" Yeah probably." I said and shook my head. I thought about a world where you did not have to hide who you are and who you want to be because of someone. Like that would ever be achieved.

@ nitsua, that video made me nearly crap my pants when I first saw it... Awesome.
While I understand Poseidons point about clock for clock speed, I don't want to diminish that, but the fact still remains that instead of comparing this device to the market that its supposed to be infringing on, they instead chose to compare it to cell phones. That said, this article does nothing to dissuade me from keeping my netbook and/or waiting until the Courier comes out.
The car anology doesnt quite apply here, because the they are not the same processors. this is like a 2JZ in a Supra (Nexus) going against a RX-8 Rotary (3GS) thats been tweaked and stuffed into a Honda Pilot (iPad).
As someone else pointed out, I would like to see the A8 benched against an Atom Z620, or the Intel SU7350. Those are the ipad's real "competitors", based on size and general purpose. It may edge out an atom but all of you know it would get the holy sh*t kicked out of it going against the SU class. Lets be totally honest here, for 800 bucks you can buy an iPad, or an Alienware M11x. Yeah, thought so.
Or if I wanted to be a real douche about it, I'd ask for a flash video playback benchmark...
cpkirkley, im sure this story is pretty much to elude on how the 4th gen iphone will perform with the new proc vs the nexus one. thats all.
as for the cars, it would be the 2jz vs 20b, idk about the suv it would go in becuase mazda didnt really have a big suv back then. maybe the mpv?
I was trying to think of a truck that Mazda had, was gonna use the tribute but its just a rebadged Explorer, lol.
I dont even think you realized it, but you pointed out a great point with that post, iPad is the apple equivalent of a crossover - its not a coupe or sedan (Macbook), nor is it a full fledged suv or pickup truck (iMac and Mac Pro). Its a niche market vehicle for which there is no viable comparison (yet).
The other thing to keep in mind, is that I would imagine the the refresh of the snapdragon processors around the same time as the iPhone 4's release date - so the better bench mark would be the 4G's A8 against the whatever the newest iteration of snapdragon is. That is until someone actually releases a phone based on nVidia's Tegra chipset, which will pwn all your base.
Guess not. Everyone is saying native multitasking is coming in 4.0, but I don't think its viable with only 256MB ram in the 3GS and iPad. Perhaps they'll only allow 2 apps at a time.
And I know you can run much more than 2 apps with backgrounder smoothly, but im pretty sure Apple has a different definition of smooth.
theres gotta be a vid out there of an mpv sleeper.
didnt realize it, but thats pretty much what everyones been sayin, its the xuv of the apple world.
i love nvidia, that would be sweet if apple would use it in the future for the iphone.
all the more reason to buy one

Clean, spacious, good location, nice view
Inadequate amount of towels and pillows.
cleanliness, modern, views,
no wifi
The apartment was modern with nice views and access to the park at the rear. We would stay here again.
The leather sofa was torn, the crockery was mis-matched. There were no instructions on where to collect the keys on arrival. We didn't find the wi-fi information until the last day as they were hidden in a bottom draw at the back. More care needs to be taken by the management regarding the up keep.
There was a problem with the hob in the apartment, however the management fitted a new one the next morning and offered us a free breakfast as compensation.
I should say I didn't enjoy myself last Thursday at all. I have stayed preveoius times and its been amazing. Mid afternoon was having a nap woke up to banging in the hall way I find a main trance man has let him self in after I had double locked my door he pulled up while carpet an he said 5-10 min job after 45 mins he eventually left .. Surely you should NOT have maintenance coming when people have or are in apartment and the fact when I checked in nothing was mentioned about this. One thing is lacking and that's " do not disturb signs" for the doors. He said he knocked but I watched him approach another room next door it wasn't a loud knock. I'm very disappointed and left shortly after as I could not concentrate after that. What a waste of money!!!!
Same as above!!
Location was great
Lovely clean apartments, would recommend to anyone
Reception to check-in and out abit far from apartments.
Clean and easy to find. Good to have parking spaces. Good value.
One of the chairs and one of the doors were broken
The check in was early than expected
When we went in the apartment the pillows were dirty and the facilities were not good. The single bed did not have a head board and there was only one thin pillow which was very low. The ironing board cover was disgusting .
Friendly staff
Kitchen unit doors were falling off Could not for the life of us get the heating to come on - even after we asked for help. Scart leads hanging out of tellys because there are no DVD players. Couldn't get the balcony doors to lock - this felt very unsecure and made us both feel very uneasy about our entire stay. We ended up leaving early!!
Lovely apartment, well equipped
Apartment not where you pick up key. Hard to find, no signage, we went to wrong address as it was raining and dark and were 'chipped ' by a man for going on his property, quite rightly, street address not at all apparent.
Location, very convent for,accessing London or Oxford by rail or road.
The double bed was in the smaller bedroom, and the two singles were in the master ensuite! There were a further two singles squeezed into the kitchen/lounge area. It was evident nobody counted the inventory as there was a mishmash of cutlery, glasses and plates with not enough for the six occupants.
- Very new and tidy apartment - Helpful staff - Good value for money - On site parking
big apartment
we had lots of problem locating the apartment as the house was not numbered prominently.
My 6 bed family apartment was given to someone else and I was given 2 smaller apartments, I was not informed of this until check in when it was too late to look for somewhere else.
The location is excellent for young children. The apartments (which are separate from the hotel rooms by about 400 metres, a fact not apparent from the website at the time of booking) back on to a park with a huge amount of flat run around space and a very good playground.
We booked two apartments and there was no consistency in the kitchen equipment. One had an abundance of pots but only two breakfast bowls; the other had only two very small pots and no frying pan or milk in the fridge. There appeared to be no attention to detail when preparing the apartments for new visitors.
The fact that the staff very quickly dealt with all our concerns, including calling in someone was was off duty to sort out the power problems and re-establish the heating, lighting and hot water. Also the apartment was cleaned daily with new towels provided. It was also situated next to a well maintained green space with an excellent play park which would be great for visitors with a young family needing to let off steam. The views from the balcony were lovely, especially the sunsets, and it was very convenient for Oxford as well as London. Overall it was excellent value for money, working out at approx £25 pp per night with full kitchen facilities and two bathrooms plus a supermarket close by.
When we first arrived the apartment was short of 1chair (only 5 for 6 guests), no chopping board for kitchen despite it being fully functional for cooking but only having melamine worktops so no good for cutting. Then, within less than an hour all the lights went out, the cooker stopped working and there was no hot water. Also found one leather 2 seater settee a bit inadequate and very uncomfortable for so many guests. The two single beds set up in the kitchen were also a surprise, although comfortable. A bed settee that could be shut down during the day to provide more comfortable seating and more room would be much better.
Roomy and spacious, off street car parking, clean, very pleasant and helpful staff.
Too hot at night and unable to open windows due to road noise. Needs air conditioning.
Location and value for money. Very well kept with excellent facilities.
Great sized appartment ideal for family, clean and ideally located
Very hot, especially upstairs - perhaps could do with air con during the summer? Or provide fans. Windows did not lock properly which was worrying with young children. The dish cloth left on the sink was dirty and had obviously been there for quite some time, I hope it hadn't been used to clean the crockery/cutlery! There were a couple of staples sticking out on the stairs (staples that hold the carpet to the stairs). Didn't like the two single beds being in the lounge area - perhaps better to put two bunk beds in either the upstairs bedroom or the ground floor bedroom, thus still providing room for six people. Having the beds in the lounge area meant there was only enough room for one sofa which does not accommodate six people which the apartment is described as! If there are two bunk beds in another bedroom, this would then give space for two sofas in the lounge area. Also, no lift! How would a disabled person manage?

It's JOHNNN!
In his youth, no one confused him with an institution, even though he grew up not too far from Baltimore, in the suburbs of Washington, D.C. Things changed fast, though, when he got involved in medicine. Then, a couple of years ago, John Hopkins was offered a job at Johns Hopkins as a financial liaison with the Home Care Group. He almost turned it down—because of his name.
Happily, he didn't, and these days, Hopkins supports the director of the five Johns Hopkins Outpatient Pharmacies (managed by JHHCG) with financial analysis and special projects. Affable and good natured, he's taken all the jokes and gibes in stride. Not that it's been easy.
What's it like to be John Hopkins at Johns Hopkins?
When I started working here nearly two years ago, I was like the fat lady in the circus. People would come by and say, "I want to see the guy called John Hopkins!" Now, I'm no longer the new guy on the block. I know everyone in the Home Care Group, they know me, and it's turned out to be a great place to work.
What about dealing with the public?
People call and ask for "John Hopkins," meaning the institution, and get transferred to me. They need medical care, or durable medical equipment—things I know absolutely nothing about. Or, there's an overdue bill and the caller—some guy from a collection agency in, say, Dubuque—expects me to pay. I try to explain that Johns Hopkins is a huge institution.
I used to answer the phone, "Outpatient Pharmacy, this is John Hopkins." Now I just say, "This is John." Sometimes I use my co-workers' names when I want something shipped to me. It's just easier.
Do you notice when people mispronounce "Johns Hopkins," omitting the "s" in "Johns"?
It really registers. How can they work here and mispronounce the name? People don't call the Mayo Clinic the May Clinic.
Has your name ever opened doors?
Definitely. I used to conduct market surveys for dialysis equipment. I'd call clinics and hospitals and say I was John Hopkins, and the information would just pour out. People would tell me everything, because the name Johns Hopkins has so much clout.
With a last name like Hopkins, why did your parents name you John?
They didn't name me after the institution. My name is John Michael; they just liked the way John sounded with Michael.
Did kids in school tease you about your name?
No. In my family, we all went by our middle names, so everybody called me Michael. During roll call on my first day in a new high school, I decided on the spur of the moment to switch to my first name. All my records were under John, and I thought it would be better to begin using my first name. The last thing on my mind was the world renown of the Johns Hopkins institutions.
When did people start paying attention to your name?
When I got into the medical field. I worked for 20 years in dialysis, then went into infusion pharmacy in Washington, D.C. People would say, "Are you related to Johns Hopkins?" or "Hey, you've got a university named after you." I've learned to pause whenever I'm introduced to give people a chance to comment. Lately, I've been able to reply, "Yeah, and I work there, too."
Advice for parents who want to name their child after a famous person or institution?
Don't do it. If I had to do it over, I'd change my name to Michael John. I'd go back to being Michael again.
—As told to Lydia Levis Bloch

Themyscira: Returning Home
After dreaming about bringing Warrior Wonder Woman to life for years, this shoot at the Palace of Fine Arts feels like the zenith of the project. The setting was perfect, the weather beautiful, and the photographer - Andrew Ho - incredibly talented. I actually felt like an Amazon at home on Themyscira.

This is Princess Dead Pool. My 3 year old told me EXACTLY how she wanted the costume to look and walked me through the entire thing, bossing me around. It was so much fun.
am i the only one kind of turned off by the fact that somebody is letting their 3 year old know about Deadpool?
a foul mouthed, murderous, psycho anti-hero?
even if it's all "properly supervised and explained", come on dude?
or is this one raised on the child friendly, silly deadpool that's featured in the ultimate spiderman cartoon?
She learned about dead pool at Emerald City ComiCon. She said, "Mama that looks like spiderman!" We explained to her who he was and then had her watch the ultimate spiderman cartoon.

Princess Deadpool by Hailey Boe
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the winner of Halloween 2013.
Everyone else may now go home.
Halloween Night
Hailey made an addition to her costume, glasses. Her dad wears glasses and she told me that she wants to be just like her daddy.
We had a great night and she trick or treated until I dropped. Her candy haul was more than enough candy for a three year old.
To top it off, instead of saying "trick or treat" she constantly yelled "Chimichanga!" In suburbia, nobody has any idea what dead pool is until a little girl comes knocking at their door and has to explain it to them, "He's kind of like Spider-Man except usually he just laughs at Spider-Man because he is silly!"

This is a great mascara, if you can get to work the brush (It can be a little tricky) you can work wonders with it. It separates my lashes and it doesn't clump even if i build up. I guess it's a love it or hate it product, just like the original. I guess it would be great as a spare mascara to have in case you lost yours, but to me it's the perfect on-the-go mascara. I love it and would recommend it to everyone. And the price, it's just a plus.
I gave this mascara 3 lippies because I like the brush very much, however, the formula isn't my favorite. I am not a fan of huge mascara brushes and this one is indeed, the little grabber. It does a very good job at getting the tiny eyelashes in the corners. For the price, it's an okay mascara. I would buy it again and a cheap option.
I was so disappointed in this product. When i first bought it i thought the new style of brush would make it easier to apply and not clump, unfortunately, it's the exact opposite! This brush makes the mascara clump not only on my eyelashes but the brush too, so automatically when i apply, my eyelashes just become one thick, gross-looking, glob. I still have this product but it's buried in my makeup bag waiting to get thrown out. I wouldn't recommend it but maybe i just got a defective tube or something.
I don't know why I'm just now seeing (or maybe just now noticing) this in my area, but I picked it up at Walgreen's and it appeared that they were marketing it as new. In any event, I'm a fan, just as I am of the original Great Lash mascara. I have found that half of a mascara's worth is in its brush, and I like the way that this one is designed. It really is conducive to precise application of the product on both the upper and lower lashes. The formula is also very black, as promised. I'm not experiencing any clumping and even when I touch my lashes I don't end up with a transferance of the product onto my fingers. I'd purchase again.
More reviews by BohemianChic89
I absolutely adore Great Lash. However, I dislike the brush on this version. I have tried it several times and it simply does not work for me. Love the original brush.
Will not purchase this version again. I will however continue to purchase the original version.
The first couple uses or so, this mascara is super clumpy and hard to work with. After this initial "breaking in" period, the formula dries out a bit and you can create full, thick lashes fairly easily with a bit of de-clumping. I had great results with it for about 2-3 weeks, then the formula gets too dry. I would rather spend more on a mascara that doesn't dry out as easily instead of having to replace this every 3 weeks.
Please note that this is definitely not the same formula as the original Great Lash. It's much thicker and dries out a lot faster.
I love this mascara it's cheap, makes my Lashes look fantastic and the bottle is cute. It looks better if you use a clear mascara first then apply this but over all I love it and will be repurchasing
More reviews by rachaelhubbard
This is the first version of Great Lash that I didn't throw away after one use, so that's saying something. I try it every 5 years or so, thinking "Well EVERYONE loves it..." and then remember why I don't. I did use this tube for a month... the brush is a VAST improvement, and makes it usable... but I still find nothing special here. The brush, while better, isn't great and I poked myself in the eye with it's sharp little bristles more than once (they are different lengths depending on which way the brush is turned... tricksy!). The formula was fine, not clumpy.... but I wasn't wowed either. Will not repurchase, but glad to see that the iconic pink-and-green bottle (which, let's be honest, is at least 90% of the reason why I WANT to love it so much) is getting an update to make it more usable in the 21st century.
I purchased this product because of the performance of the original Great Lash mascara. This brush is horrible. It caused clumps, and did not separate my lashes like the original. Major fail, Maybelline. :(
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
The "heart" shaped brush wasn't too bad, but I prefer a baguette shape. It did grab my lashes and I think it applied evenly and pretty nicely on my lashes but they're naturally pretty long anyway just need some colour and volume.
Problem was that it lasted no time at all. This stuff flaked like crazy, even after like an hour of wearing, OR LESS.
To sum it up
No clumping at all, applied well with a strange but ok brush, flaked like black Christmas snow and didn't last long.

A Multicenter, Double-blind, Controlled, Randomized, Parallel Group Comparison Phase IIIa Treatment Investigation on the Efficacy and Safety of MAX-002 Suppository Versus Placebo and Active Medicine in Mild to Moderate Ulcerative Proctitis
Hypothesis: The responder rate of the MAX-002 will be superior to placebo after 6 weeks of
treatment in patients with mild to moderate ulcerative proctitis.
Summary: The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of new
mesalamine suppositories (MAX-002) as compared to placebo after 6 weeks of treatment in
adults with mild to moderate ulcerative proctitis.
Prior to randomization, all inclusion and exclusion criteria will be verified to confirm

TFFT's life story—like any good story—is filled with challenges, successes, tragedy, love, and great hope. TFFT's life unofficially began in the summer of 2004 when Meghann HG Bourne spent a summer volunteering at Nkoaranga Orphanage. The general state of despair at Nkoaranga Orphanage, the women who struggled to care for 30 children under the age of five, and the sweet children who called the orphange their home struck a deep chord with Meghann.
Helena, Matayo, and Yusufu, in particular, captured Meghann's heart. She spent many nights brainstorming how she could help these four-year-old triplets. You see, there are over one million orphaned and abandoned children in Tanzania, and, because of that staggering number, most orphanages do not have the capacity or resources to care for children over the age of five. Therefore, with their 5th birthday, many children age out of their orphanages and are pushed to live on the streets.
What began with a plea to family and friends to help place these triplets in private boarding school has grown into The Foundation For Tomorrow, an organization passionately committed to investing in children and the power of education.
TFFT officially incorporated at the end of 2006, and our Scholarship Program remains our paramount program. TFFT was born from a vision to educate Helena, Yusufu, and Matayo, and our focus remains that personal. TFFT partners with orphanages and private boarding schools. Our scholarship students come from our Partner Orphanages, and we place them into our Partner Schools.
Additionally TFFT operates Full Circle, an after-school program for our Scholarship Students, and our Teacher Training Program, which the Ministry of Education has applauded. Helena, Yusufu, and Matayo celebrated their 11th birthdays in November 2011 and are thriving at Usa River Academy with 80 other scholarship students.
