Traveling overseas can be extremely costly, especially if you want to enjoy all you can of the culture of other countries. This is also true of Ireland, but you can find many things to do that cost little to nothing at all. Find Ireland vacations and include some of these budget-friendly adventures into your visit.
Climb the Cliffs
Ireland offers Achill Head, Croaghaun, and Slievemore, which provide visitors with exercise and the reward of a beautiful view. They are part of the Slieve League and are the highest sea cliffs in Europe.
Hill of Tara
The Hill of Tara is one of the most important places in Ireland because it is where the High Kings once sat. It is free to visit and offers a great view. One can study both the history of Ireland and mythological history at this location. There is also an audio-visual display at the visitor center to assist with the history.
Driving to Glendalough is worth the challenge. It can allow you a chance to relax and visit what may be the most important Christian sites in Ireland. It is important that before visiting Glendalough you study the history of the site.
St. Stephen's Green
Ireland's Victorian park, St. Stephen's Green, is the best public park to visit and relax in. The park was opened to the public in 1880 by William Sheppard and is quite large. It is a centerpiece of Dublin with Merrion Square and Fitzwilliam Square located nearby.
Guinness Storehouse
Guinness is a very popular brand of beer with its storehouse located in Dublin, Ireland. It is one of the biggest tourist attractions. While you visit the storehouse, you should stop in at the Gravity Bar on the top floor where you will be able to see most of Dublin while drinking a pint of beer.
National Leprechaun Museum
Ireland is famous for the Irish heritage and ties to leprechaun folklore. The National Leprechaun Museum is one of the most popular tourist destinations. While the museum is not free, it is budget friendly. It is also fun and quirky. You can quickly learn about the history of Irish folklore and look for rainbows and pots of gold.
Just because you are traveling overseas does not mean you have to figure in spending thousands once you arrive. Ireland is one of the many European countries that offer visitors many things to do that work with any budget. Ireland is rich with both Christian history and mythological history. The landscape is serene and one can have a great vacation simply soaking up the country's beauty and drinking fresh beer. There are dozens of parks and cliffs to visit for free. However, the items that have minimal prices attached to them are worth every penny paid.
It is important that you allow enough time really to enjoy what Ireland has to offer. It may not be a huge country, but what it does offer can take hours of your time learning and absorbing.

Hospitals Compensation of Employed Physicians Violates Stark Law
A federal court's November 13 ruling demonstrates that a hospital's compensation of physicians can violate the Stark Law's prohibition against paying for Medicare referrals, even when the physicians are the hospital's own employees and their payment pool is distributed in proportion to their personally-performed services. |
Healthcare is entering unknown territory in 2014. Though the path ahead may be bumpy, it is important to identify and implement strategies around the factors you can control to support your medical staffing objectives. Here are four physician recruitment and retention related trends you can expect next year, and what your practice can do to stay ahead of the curve: |
Physicians from three top institutions report an abrupt and highly troubling increase over the last two years in the incidence of pump thrombosis in patients who have received the HeartMate II left ventricular assist device (LVAD) manufactured by Thoratec. |
Fewer than half of U.S. doctors are self-employed, down from over three quarters in 1983. Physicians in the United States are in the midst of a historic shift toward hospital employment. Between 2000 and 2010, the percentage of physicians who went to work for hospitals increased by one-third, and the rate appears to be increasing in the years since. Today, fewer than half of U.S. physicians are self-employed, down from over three quarters in 1983, and in 2014 it is estimated that three in four of all physicians hired will go to work for a hospital. What is driving this trend toward hospital employment, and is it good or bad news for patients? |
San Antonio is the most visited city in Texas. As the saying goes, "everything is bigger in Texas." Top sights include the Alamo and other historic missions, the River Walk, SeaWorld San Antonio and Six Flags Fiesta . Shopping in San Antonio is no exception! The eighth largest city in the United States, San Antonio offers an abundant variety of shops, galleries and malls containing collectibles and clothing as unique and diverse as the Texas landscape. From fine art to Western wear to spicy salsas, you can be sure no shopping list will be left incomplete. This employer is a leading urgent care provider to this region of Texas. It is the largest national provider of urgent care with more than 600 medical centers in 43 states. With over 30 years in healthcare, you'll be joining a state-of-the-art organization! For a virtual visit of San Antonio and more about this opportunity- |
Breathe deep and enjoy the scenery. There are few places in the country more beautiful that the Pacific Northwest. We are located just seven miles west of downtown Portland; your opportunities are limited only by your imagination. Whatever your preferred style of living you can find it in the Portland Metro Area. This practice prides itself on spending extensive time with each and every patient, for each encounter. This is a "happiness is mandatory" work environment and only those with a true love for their work and enthusiastic about compassionate care are being sought. For a virtual visit - |
Step into a stable, profitable practice with an existing patient base and leadership opportunities. This opportunity is perfect for the seasoned family medicine physician or those just out of residency. This is an employed rural hospital position. You are in control of your future, don't let this pass you by! This employer is a leading provider of occupational medicine services to this region of Tennessee. One look at the exceptional facilities makes it very clear that this is an organization that is a leader in the field. For a virtual visit- |
The Rio Grande Valley offers a unique cultural mix between the United States and Mexico. In fact, it is a little of both and not completely either one. The Valley is also a popular getaway for people looking to escape the harsh winters up north. So whether you want to play golf in January, get in touch with nature or cross the border for a little cultural exchange, the Valley has much to offer. This stable and rather well-established orthopedics department possesses a collegial, friendly atmosphere of support in pursuit of a shared and common mission: superb patient care. For a virtual visit- |

Bobby went on to gain success from there, including landing a cast role on MADtv. Joining the show in 1999, Bobby quickly became an audience favorite on the longrunning sketch show, which in total air for 14 seasons on Fox. Bobby became known for his unique brand of pain?inducing, physical humor. He created such memorable original characters as the comically confused film critic "Johnny Gan," the world's worst interpreter "Bae Sung;" and hapless warrior the Blind kung Fu Master." And audiences have loved his takes on such real?world figures as Connie Chung and North Korean President Kim Jong Il, and a memorable take on presidential hopeful John McCain.parodies and politically incorrect humor.

A bill drafted by the Miami Dolphins would give Florida sports teams $3 million a year in state money to improve older stadiums, provided the owner pays for at least half the cost of a major renovation.
Under the law, the stadium would need to be 20 years old and the team willing to put in at least $125 million for a $250 million renovation. That's less than the $400 million redo of Sun Life Stadium that Dolphins owner Stephen Ross proposed this week, which he hopes will win state approval thanks to his offer to fund at least $200 million of the effort to modernize the 1987 facility.
Miami-Dade and Florida would fund the rest through a mix of county hotel taxes and state general funds set aside for stadiums. Sun Life currently receives $2 million a year through the program, and the Dolphins want to create a new category that would give them an additional $3 million.
While the Miami Marlins and Miami Heat both play in stadiums subsidized by county hotel taxes, the Dolphins receive no local dollars. The bill would change that by allowing Miami-Dade to increase the tax charged at mainland hotels to 7 percent from 6 percent, and eliminate the current rule that limits the money to publicly owned stadiums. Sun Life Stadium, in Miami Gardens, is privately owned but sits on county land.
The bill pits enthusiasm for one of Florida's most popular sports teams against a lean budget climate and lingering backlash against the 2009 deal that had Miami and Miami-Dade borrow about $485 million to build a new ballpark for the Marlins. Ross also must navigate a Republican-led Legislature that has twice rebuffed his requests for public dollars.
"I would be surprised if that bill even got a hearing in committee," said Mike Fasano, a Republican representative from the Tampa area and a critic of tax-funded sports deals. "I'm a big Dolphin fan, and have been for years. But with all due respect, we've got people who are struggling throughout this state right now . .. The last thing we should be doing is giving a professional sports team or facility additional tax dollars."
While the bill would open up the $3 million subsidy to other the teams, the Dolphins see it as unlikely that another owner would be willing to put up as much money for renovations as Ross, a billionaire real estate developer.
If the bill were enacted today, any stadium opened before 1993 would be eligible for the money, provided it could show the proposed renovation would generate an additional $3 million in sales taxes.
Ross and his backers are pitching the renovation as a boon to tourism, with Sun Life a magnet for the Super Bowl, national college football games and other major events. The National Football League is considering South Florida and San Francisco for the 2016 Super Bowl, and the Dolphins say approval of renovation funding is crucial to winning the bid.
Sen. Oscar Braynon, D-Miami Gardens, who sponsored the Senate bill, said the funding makes sense because when Sun Life hosts a Super Bowl, the entire state benefits from both tourism dollars and publicity.
"It's a small price to pay for economic development, and for all the shine we get from major sporting events," said Braynon, whose district includes Sun Life. Rep. Eduardo "Eddy" Gonzalez, R-Hialeah, is the sponsor on the House side.

It is a must-win scenario for the Tampa Bay Rays and host Texas Rangers on Monday if they wish to advance to a second must-win situation. The two teams tied for the second American League wild-card spot and will break the tie for the right to meet the Cleveland Indians in Wednesday's one-game round. Texas has won seven straight games and Tampa Bay has won eight of its last 10 contests.Rays ace David Price starts against Rangers rookie Martin Perez and Texas announced that power-hitting outfielder Nelson Cruz will be activated for Monday's game. Cruz's 50-game suspension for performance-enhancing drugs ended Sunday and he has fared well against Price, going 6-for-12 with two homers against the left-hander. Price is fired up about getting the ball in the tiebreaker. "This is a moment that I want to be in," he said. "I want to be able to relish the moment and go out there and have fun."TV: 8:07 p.m. ET, TBSPITCHING MATCHUP: Rays LH David Price (9-8, 3.39 ERA) vs. Rangers LH Martin Perez (10-5, 3.55)Price didn't face the Rangers this season but has traditionally struggled against them, going 1-4 with a 5.98 ERA in eight career outings. After being sensational in July and August, Price was 1-2 with a 3.78 ERA in five September starts. He has pitched at least seven innings in four of his last six turns.The 22-year-old Perez won seven of his last nine decisions as one of Texas' most-reliable starters over the second half of the season. He didn't face the Rays this season and his lone career outing against them was a five-inning stint last season in which he gave up two runs and seven hits. Perez has allowed three or fewer runs in nine of his last 11 starts.WALK-OFFS 1. Texas defeated Tampa Bay in the AL Division Series in 2010 and 2011 en route to back-to-back World Series appearances.2. The Rangers earned the right to host the play-in game because they won the regular-season series 4-3. The teams split a four-game series in mid-September.3. Rangers OF Alex Rios is batting .435 with two homers and seven RBIs in 23 career at-bats against Price.PREDICTION: Rangers 6, Rays 4

Color Connection #6: First Wedding Anniversary Date
My entry last week was about our wedding day though I particularly talked about my wedding bouquet because Valentine's Day was coming then. I was nostalgic and that was because that was a few days after we celebrated our first wedding anniversary. And as I mentioned, I am going to talk about where we celebrated our anniversary. And this is it. Do you recognize the place?
We revisited the Biltmore House. And that was definitely the best place to spend our anniversary because it was two days after our wedding last year when we visited the place for the first time. And we enjoyed it the more this time because the weather was glorious. We got to explore the outside of the house more. We also had our lunch at the bistro near the winery which was a few miles from the house. I had taken a lot of photos, but I will be sharing a few at a time. Hmmm, so that means one thing. This is not the only time that I am going to talk about out anniversary. LOL.
Me and my boys. (",)

Hip pain results from damage to the hip joint—a ball and socket joint that connects the ball-shaped top of the leg bone (femur) to the hip socket. Damage to the hip joint results from a number of causes, including:
- Osteoarthritis (which causes a degeneration of the cushioning of the surface of the hip socket)
- Rheumatoid arthritis (which causes swelling of the hip joint)
- Avascular necrosis (an interrupted blood supply to the hip joint causing the eventual loss of bone tissue in that area)
- Injury (caused either by a bone tumor or by a break or fracture of the hip joint)
Conservative Treatment
Nonsurgical therapies are often the first choice of treatment but it really depends on the cause of your pain. Your physician will ask about your symptoms and then x-ray the hip joint to assess the extent of the damage. Nonsurgical therapies include:
- Physical therapy and pain relievers—Physical therapy is prescribed to strengthen the hip. Pain medication may include either nonaspirin relievers (ie, Tylenol) or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen .
- Steroid medications—In cases where NSAIDs are no longer effective and the diagnosis includes a form of inflammatory arthritis, steroid-based anti-inflammatory/pain medication such as prednisone may be prescribed. Because these don't control the pain for long and have potential long-term side effects—weakening of joints, weight loss and/or a decrease in the functioning of the immune system—steroids are not considered a long-term option.
In certain situations, other surgical treatment options may be considered:
- Osteotomy—In this procedure, the damaged portion of the hip joint is removed and the joint is reconfigured to its proper position. Recovery from an osteotomy may take anywhere from 6-12 months. In many cases, osteotomy requires additional treatments, and in most cases, it serves to delay rather than avoid the need for hip replacement surgery.
- Core decompression—is used in patients with femoral head osteonecrosis at the early stage
- Surgical debridement—may be used for a variety of hip disorders
- Resection arthroplasty —for patients who have a chronic infection of the hip or are affected by certain bone tumors
- Hip arthroscopy
- Hip arthrodesis—also known as hip fusion
Hip Replacement Surgery
When your hip problems can no longer be controlled by conservative methods, you may become a candidate for hip replacement surgery.. If you are deemed a suitable candidate and decide to have hip replacement surgery, the procedure will consist of the following:
- The damaged portion of the hip joint (including the bone and cartilage) are removed.
- The hip socket (into which the ball at the top of the femur fits) is lined with a smooth plastic material, allowing for smooth (and painless) movement of the ball in the hip socket.
- The rounded ball-shaped portion of bone at the top of the femur is replaced by an artificial ball made of either metal or ceramic.
Getting Back on Your Feet
For the first week or two following surgery, activity is very limited. After this initial period, crutches are needed for up to six weeks, and physical therapy and exercise begin (lasting for 3-6 months). Depending on your age, overall condition prior to surgery, and steadfastness in following the prescribed rehabilitation regimen, recovery from hip replacement surgery will take anywhere from 2-6 months.
Possible postoperative complications from hip replacement surgery include:
- Hip dislocation (most common complication)—occurs when the ball portion of the prosthesis dislocates from its normal position in the hip
- Pain
- Infection
- Blood clots
- Swelling or bleeding
- Loosening of the artificial joint within the hip socket (the most common long-term postoperative problem)
These postoperative complications can often be treated with medication or other nonsurgical techniques. Sometimes, however, follow-up surgery may be necessary. If the artificial joint is damaged, a second hip replacement may be required. And, even with the current advancements in artificial hip technology, the artificial hip liner or the artificial hip itself will wear out and require replacement within two decades.
Here are some things you can do to prevent complications and improve the longevity of an artificial hip:
- Prior to surgery, arrange your home so that during your initial recovery period, you can keep your movement as safe as possible.
- Follow all of your doctor's and therapist's orders as to what physical activity you can and cannot do, especially while recuperating.
- Diligently follow your physical therapy and prescribed home exercise regimen.
- If you develop any unusual pain in the new joint or develop any kind of an infection, contact your primary care doctor or your surgeon immediately.
- After your rehabilitation period is over, continue with your home-prescribed physical therapy exercises.
- Avoid activities or sports that can cause you to fall or that put a large amount of stress on your joints (jogging, running , racquetball, singles tennis, basketball, skiing). Instead, opt for exercises that put limited stress on joints ( swimming , walking , or doubles tennis).

Dimmu Borgir
In Sorte Diaboli
I'm always disappointed by new Dimmu Borgir albums. Not because they're particularly poorly written, played or produced albums. Ironically, it's because they never live up to the titillating negative press I read about them before I listen to them. I'm always expecting a bombastic black metal circus with all the unnecessary and over the top trimmings. But, what do I get? I get a solid, but pretty underwhelming blackened/melodic death metal album with some clean vocals and a few keyboard parts. As outrageous as people make these guys out to be, I always find their albums to be pretty tame, middle of the road affairs. In Sorte Diaboli is really no different. Again I was hoping a new Dimmu Borgir release would serve as a decadent and raucous guilty pleasure, and again me and my short memory are served up a workmanlike and unspectacular album that doesn't pack nearly as much audacious punch as I hoped it would.
Opener "The Serpentine Offering" begins with a brief Romantic orchestral march before giving way to triggered double bass and machine-like power chords. Not surprisingly, Dimmu Borgir put their best foot forward, as "The Serpentine Offering" is probably the best and most diverse track on the album. There's a break that features some actual black metal riffing and a welcome clean chorus by the regrettably under utilized ICS Vortex. "The Chosen Legacy," "The Conspiracy Unfolds," "The Sinister Awakening," and "The Fundamental Alienation," are mid paced, melodic, and unspectacular. Sadly, these tracks betray Dimmu Borgir as a painfully average group big on budget but short on inspiration. Elsewhere, "The Sacrilegious Scorn," and "The Invaluable Darkness," break the monotony with some satisfying crooning by Vortex, but still come up short in the riff and melody department. For a band so endlessly panned for being pompous, there's very little pomp or excitement to any of these songs.
In Sorte Diaboli is a well produced album, but the band has written so few heavy parts that their potential to truly crush the listener is never fulfilled. I've heard groups with a lot less money sound a lot heavier purely on the strength of their material.
Dimmu Borgir will undoubtedly move units. Likewise, the elite metal crowd will always consider them a joke. I find this pardigm kind of baffling, as every Dimmu Borgir album I've heard has sounded neither particularly marketable nor slag-worthy. In Sorte Diaboli is no exception. Despite my expectations for something more, for better or worse, this is just an average and pretty typical sounding album.

Reasons Celebrity Speakers Will Be More Memorable At Bigger Events
Celebrities play a big part of anyone's life whether they choose to see them or not. They are on magazines when you go grocery shopping. They are on the news. They are everywhere. They have a lot of clout as they carry weight in the movies or on the radio. Whether they are a film star or a music star, they have made a dent in the world with their creativity. That is why celebrity speakers are memorable at big events.
Celebrity speakers can make the event more attractive and hard to forget with their presence. Depending on what the celebration is, there will surely be a celebrity to be willing to be present. The celebrity may be a proponent of the cause the event is occasioning. This will help the famous person and the audience connect with each other.
Many stars are outspoken and passionate about a variety of issues. Since many people look up to them as role models, this can give added force to a cause. Meeting a celebrity in person holds a lot of power for people, who usually only get to view them from a distance on a screen or a television set.
A well known person can add energy, vibrancy and life to an occasion. They may even be able to sing or perform in addition to speaking. This can increase attendance and revenue for the special event. In addition, by word-of-mouth, there can be more revenue brought in as more people will hear about and buy more tickets. They will also, in turn, tell their friends and so on. The ball starts to roll towards profits and it can be quite fruitful.
Most well known stars do not speak for free, but their presence can be worth the money invested. Speaker fees are often quite high, but stars will attract crowds to make the event a success. Having a well known speaker can dramatically increase the turnout for an event. If it is a fundraiser, the cost of the speaking fees can easily be absorbed by the high turnout and the organizers can make money off of the event.
Several types of performers are out there such as singers, duos, cyclists, and actors. Call their publicist or manager to see if they are available. If they are really famous, this may be very difficult to do. Do not give up.
If people are very well-known, it is a good idea to plan on booking them months or even years ahead of time. This is so important. This makes sense as they are so well-known, they might invest the time to do a program unless it is big. This helps their reputation as they must further their career every day.

Things I liked:It is real light Things I would have changed:It would be great if it could use Co2, something like the daisy M14 rifle it uses 2ea 12 gram premium CO2 and its semi-auto What others should know:Its a very good rifle for the price Things I liked:I like it! Mounted the front stock iron sites on the barrel and mounted my Leopers red/green reticle sight and it lined up perfect with the front sight. First shot was just 3/4" from bulls eye. A few small adjustments and it's right on!! Gun looks good and is comfortable to shoot. Things I would have changed:I Wish they had moved the bottom picitiney rail on the barrel forward a bit. I got a flashlight mounted to it, but if the rail was farther forward it would be easier to mount the light so it would not hit the pump handle when pumping it up. They should remove the picitiney rail on the bottom of the pump handle, which, cannot be used, and replace it with 2 rails one on each side of the pump handle. It should come with three mags instead of just one. What others should know:All in all it is a very nice gun, looks good, and shoots good. I would recommend it, but purchase several more magazines just for the fun of it!! Don ;o) Things I liked:multi-pump rifles are for fun not serious hunting or getting tight target groups. I just enjoy firing this weapon reminds me of my M16 days decades ago! Things I would have changed:no What others should know:no Show Other ReviewsCreate an online review and share your thoughts with other customers

All My Children Recaps
AMC Week of January 12, 2009
Pete put the moves on Colby, who shot him down. Pete admitted to Colby that he'd lied to her about Scarlet being his girlfriend, that Scarlet was a call girl he'd hired to make her jealous. Pete told Colby that he loves her. "You're like a brother," she responded, much to his dismay. Pete tried to make Colby reconsider. A teary-eyed Colby told Pete that they could only be friends. He told her he couldn't do that and asked her to leave, which she reluctantly did.
At the Martin house, Tad interrogated Krystal about David. She insisted that JR was out of his mind on alcohol and that David had simply been helping her through a tough time. When Krystal mentioned the pills, Tad thought David had raped her. She assured him that that wasn't the case and blurted out, "David understands me." She told Tad that nothing had happened between her and David until Tad had left town. Tad blasted Krystal for throwing away their life together. Krystal said that men like Adam and David make her feel alive. He forced her to say out loud that she slept with David. Tad was convinced that David was using Krystal to hurt him. He made Krystal go with him to Wildwind. Krystal asked David to back up her account. "Tad doesn't want words," David observed. "I want you to get what you deserve," Tad nodded. He called David out on using Krystal to get back at him and to win custody of Little Adam. Tad wanted to know what would happen to Krystal once his plan succeeded. When Tad used Babe's name, David lost his temper and pointed a gun at his rival. Tad called his bluff and David lowered the weapon. Tad said that David couldn't take Krystal from him; he was giving Krystal to David. He walked out alone. Krystal broke down in tears.
At the Slater house, Reese and Zach marveled over what a long day it had been. Reese tended to Gaby and worried aloud that Bianca had left town to get away from her (Reese). Zach looked at Kendall's photo, which he put down when the phone rang, alerting him to the fact that Bianca had been in a car accident. Reese and Zach raced to the hospital. They were both thrown when Bianca was icy to them, and Binks accused Reese of having stayed behind to be with Zach. "You set me up?" gasped Reese. Bianca confirmed that she had never intended to go to Connecticut. "What's wrong with you?" snapped Zach when Binks asked if Reese and Zach were in love. They insisted that Bianca's suspicions were ridiculous. Binks was unyielding, so Zach left to check on his wife and Reese pleaded with Bianca to believe in her. Reese told Bianca that she couldn't live her life under Binks's constant, mistrustful scrutiny. "I know what I saw," Bianca hissed. "No, you don't," retorted Reese. Bianca said she was tired and turned away, resisting Reese's expression of tenderness toward her. Reese left and told Zach that Bianca was hurt and angry. Binks, meanwhile, wept in her sickbed and reflected on what had led up to her testing Reese and Zach. She received a note from Reese, who said she was returning to Paris. Bianca panicked and dashed out of her hospital room.... Zach returned home to find Reese snuggling Gaby and weeping. Reese told Zach that she can't leave her children. Bianca entered and apologized for being such an idiot. "I love you, I trust you," she said. They forgave each other and kissed.
Amanda went to Wildwind, frantic with worry about JR. David made her sweat a bit, then assured her that JR was alive. Amanda went back to the yacht, where JR was soused on the couch. "I can't go home," he slurred. She told him he could stay with her for as long as he needed. JR told Amanda about tying David to the piano and about telling Tad that Krystal is sleeping with David. JR moaned that perhaps he should jump off the boat. She told him to
do it. "I am sick of you curled up with a bottle," she said. She thrust a bottle at him, which he poured out, swearing off booze once more. He told her that it helped to have someone who believed in him. They kissed tenderly.
At Wildwind, David had a bad reaction (which he tried to conceal from Krystal) to Krystal's insistence that Jenny live with them. David pretended to be thrilled with the idea, so Krystal went to go get her baby.
At the hospital, Frank and Angie chatted about David's awfulness before Angie excused herself. Frank then became enraged when he found some staffers gawking at the lewd online pics of Randi. Frank told the interns that he could have them fired for looking at that material on the job and when one of the interns back-talked him, Frank shoved him. David arrived and barked at Frank to unhand the man. Hayward disciplined the interns, then told Frank
that he was on warning. Frank returned home and told Randi what had happened at work with the interns. An argument ensued between the lovebirds and Randi raced out, upset.
Jesse was shocked to learn from Tad about Krystal's affair with David. Tad insisted that he wasn't going to allow Krystal to take Jenny. Krystal showed up and Tad served her with a restraining order, saying he'd have Jesse arrest her if she didn't leave the premises. Krystal begged him not to do this, but Tad wouldn't back down. Jenny started crying but Jesse stopped her from rushing her, warning Krystal that he didn't want to arrest her but would have to if she didn't leave. Krystal screamed for her daughter as Jesse ushered her out. Tad was unmoved by the display, which Jesse aptly described as harsh.
Dr. Sinclair reviewed the footage of Annie that she'd secretly taped. She arranged for a visit from "Mr. Stone" (really Aidan). Aidan, meanwhile, asked his contact for a favor, explaining that he needed to see Annie. The administrator wanted to know what Aidan wanted with Annie, but he remained tight-lipped. Aidan hid when Dr. Sinclair came by looking for Mr. Stone. Dr. Sinclair then went to see Annie, who was agitated and didn't understand why
she was in the hospital — or why the doctor had called her Emma. Lucid, she demanded to see her husband, Ryan. The doc said that Annie couldn't leave because she had hurt some people. Annie had a vision that led her to believe that she'd killed Ryan, which the doctor said was not the case. She asked to see Mr. Stone, but refused to tell Dr. Sinclair his real name. Burly attendants came in and restrained Annie, who was then medicated.
Ryan and Greenlee sent Emma off to school, then received a visit from Jack. He told them about Bianca's minor car accident. Jack delivered Ryan's divorce papers and also Greenlee's divorce documents. Aidan's signature was required, but Greenlee didn't know how to find him. Greens called Aidan, who took the call from his hiding spot at Oak Haven. She explained that she
needed him to sign the divorce papers quickly because she and Ryan were getting married. Aidan hung up. Jack excused himself and Greens beat herself up for having told Aidan over the phone. Greens was stunned when, shortly thereafter, Aidan showed up at the door, claiming he'd gotten back from D.C. the night before. He icily complimented Greenlee on her engagement ring. After some harsh words to Ryan about Annie, Aidan signed the papers. He then got a call from the administrator, warning him that he had to return at once because Sinclair was on the warpath.
A frantic Krystal went to the hospital and begged David to help her. Angie spied Krystal in David's arms and demanded to know what David had done to her. Krystal told Angie that it was Tad who'd done this to her. Angie recoiled from Krystal's description of what had happened back at the house and went to Tad's to confront him. Angie opined that Krystal is the victim, not the enemy. Angie urged Tad not to give up on Krystal but he was adamant that he wasn't going to lose Jenny to David. Back at Wildwind, David
promised Krystal that they would get Jenny back. He introduced Krystal to an attorney friend, who, it was clear, had orders from David that Krystal wasn't privy to. The attorney warned Krystal that getting custody of Jenny wouldn't be easy. Privately to David, the lawyer expressed his misgivings about misleading Krystal, but David snapped that that wasn't what he was paying the lawyer for. David then vowed to Krystal that they would win the case.
Randi went to the Valley Inn bar and ordered a shot of tequila. She was ogled by a male patron who asked her, "How much?" "A thousand for the night," she responded. He proceeded to whip out a badge and tell her that she was under arrest.
Aidan returned to Oak Haven and tried to sneak in to see Annie but was stopped by Dr. Sinclair, who suggested that he tell her his real name and why he's so interested in Annie.
Annie had a horrific nightmare about Ryan being stabbed — by Greenlee. She woke up with a start. "It was Greenlee!" she gasped. "Greenlee killed him!" With a maniacal look in her eye, Annie resolved to find Greenlee and kill her.
Josh sneaked back into town and skulked around the casino. He then went to the hospital to see his comatose sister, telling Kendall that he loved her and that he planned to make Zach pay for allowing "this" to happen.
Randi name-dropped Jesse Hubbard in order to get out of the soliciting charge. Jesse came and demanded answers from Randi. After hearing her out, Jesse got Randi out of the jam and urged her not to give up on Frank.
At ConFusion, Frank opened up to his sister, Natalia, about his upset regarding the pornographic Web site featuring Randi. Nat urged Frank to reassure Randi of his love. Nat was stressed about letting Jesse know that she is serious about joining the police force. The sibs bonded as they discussed Jesse's job in law enforcement. Jesse dropped by and took Frank aside to talk about Randi. He advised his son to go find his lady and pledge his support to her. Nat then broke the news to Jesse about her chosen career path. He told her to listen to her heart and was thrilled with her decision.
Frank caught up to Randi and swept her into his arms.
When Dr. Sinclair brought Aidan in to see Annie, she thought he was Ryan. Annie was relieved that Greenlee hadn't killed "Ryan." Aidan feigned a paranoid episode to get out of Annie's room. Sinclair put him isolation and indicated that she was going to speak to the administrator about him. The administrator came to see Aidan and demanded answers about Aidan's interest in Annie. Aidan said he needed to help Annie; that he owed her. Sinclair
went back to Annie's room and interrogated her about what she'd done when she had escaped from Oak Haven; Aidan listened in through the air conditioning duct. Annie remembered her confrontation at the penthouse with Greenlee and also remembered being at ConFusion in her wedding dress. Hysterical, Annie fretted that she was going to be killed. Once alone, Aidan and Annie began to converse through the vents. Aidan promised Annie that he
would get her out.
Ryan surprised Greenlee with a motorcycle of her own. They took a nap on the couch and Greens had a nightmare about Ryan dying on the motorcycle. She woke up and insisted that they get rid of the bike. Ryan assured her that he would dispose of the bike. He then welcomed Dr. Sinclair to the apartment. She said she was there because of Greenlee. The doc said that she wanted to get Annie competent enough to stand trial for her crimes, including Richie's
murder. The doc believed that Annie would most likely spend the rest of her life in prison.
Erica came home to find Opal in her suite. Erica explained that she had brunch plans with Reese. Reese, meanwhile, left the house with "good luck" wishes from Zach and Bianca. Zach told Bianca they needed to talk. He told Bianca that he loves Kendall with all his heart. Binks apologized for having questioned the nature of his involvement with Reese.... Over brunch, La Kane apologized to Reese for misconstruing her relationship with Zach and the
ladies made amends. When Binks barged in, the ladies let her know that they had mended fences. Reese excused herself to meet Zach and La Kane apologized to Binks for having caused problems for them. Bianca told her mom that she was proud of her. They got back down to the business of planning the bridal shower. Downstairs, Reese noticed that Zach was distant and called him out on it. He asked her if something had happened between them that he had missed. Reese said that they had a special connection but that she sees all his love for Kendall. Josh spied on them. Later, Zach and Erica encountered each other at the hospital and when La Kane spoke about having mended fences with Reese, Zach asked her what she was up to. At the casino, Josh approached Reese, pretending to be an aspiring architect. Reese left the security schematics for the casino unattended to fetch Bianca. Josh made himself scarce, having copied the schematics onto his PDA.
At ConFusion, Adam told Tad it was his (Tad's) fault that Krystal had fallen prey to David. Livia excused herself while Adam proposed to Tad that they team up to keep David away from Little Adam. A drunken JR showed up, offering to testify against Krystal. Adam and Tad were both disgusted by JR's condition.
At the hospital, Krystal fretted to David about the possibility of losing custody of Jenny. David assured her that he wouldn't let that happen. At the courthouse, Krystal encountered Opal, who said she had to testify against Krystal so long as she was entangled with David. Distressed by the confrontation, Krystal popped some more pills.
At Oak Haven, Aidan communicated with Annie via the air conditioning duct. Aidan implored Annie to keep her mouth shut about her desire to hurt Greenlee in front of Dr. Sinclair, lest the doc never release her from Oak Haven. Aidan explained that Annie blamed Greens for the dissolution of her marriage to Ryan. "Keep your memories a secret," Aidan advised. When Dr. Sinclair entered, Annie claimed that she'd been talking to herself and that
she felt a lot better. Sinclair grilled Annie about what had happened at Ryan's penthouse the day she escaped, but Annie claimed not to remember. She had a series of flashbacks about her troubled history with Greens but didn't reveal her memories to Sinclair.
Ryan and Greenlee had Reese and Bianca over to discuss wedding venues. Ryan and Greens had found the perfect spot in Connecticut, where Reese and Bianca's marriage would be legal. After they left, Ryan told Greenlee that he had packed up Annie's belongings. Greens left "for work"; Emma arrived and Ryan tried to hide from her that he was getting rid of her mom's stuff.
Zach didn't believe Erica's claim that she was genuinely trying to get along with Reese. La Kane tried to assure Zach that she knows how devoted he is to Kendall. David strolled up with news for Zach about Kendall. David explained that Kendall's condition had taken a turn for worse ‹ she had mere days to live. Zach vowed to find his wife a heart, even if he had to kill somebody. Zach concealed David's update from Erica.
Armed with a gun, Josh pored over the security schematics for the casino. He skulked around the casino and when Zach arrived (after having no luck getting Joe to get a heart to be transplanted into Kendall) he made himself scarce. Zach saw Jake at the casino bar and asked him how to get Kendall moved to the top of the transplant list. Jake said that he couldn't offer assistance.
David joined up with Krystal at the courthouse. He chastised her for taking too many pills. He reassured her that he was not using her to get to Little A. Tad, Little Adam and Livia arrived and Tad shot a snarky comment David's way.
Instead of going to work, Greenlee went to Oak Haven to see Annie. Dr. Sinclair brought her in and with difficulty, Annie told Greenlee that she was sorry and that she forgave her. Greens didn't buy it, which she made clear to Sinclair. Greens warned the doctor not to believe a word out of Annie's mouth. In her room, Annie asked Aidan through the vents why he was helping her. He said he understood her and that they needed to get better, together. Greens returned home to find Ryan and Emma napping on the couch. She left in a hurry.
Erica joined Bianca and Reese at ConFusion. La Kane told him about her encounter with Zach at the hospital. Binks was worried that Zach may have gotten bad news about Kendall. Bianca, Reese and Erica accosted Zach, demanding answers about Kendall's prognosis. He was about to tell them the truth when the alarm went off and a masked Josh ordered everyone to lie down, firing his gun. Zach went after Josh, who pointed the gun directly at him.
Jake ran into Amanda at ConFusion, where she ordered a club soda because she wasn't feeling well. Amanda became nauseous and ran off.
Tad took the stand and testified about how he learned of Krystal's
infidelity. He said that Krystal was too unstable to be a good parent to Jenny. Adam testified against Krystal, as well. JR had a drunken outburst against David and nearly got thrown out. Opal took the stand and said that Krystal was addicted to pills given to her by David. She also referred to Krystal as a "two-timing junkie." Krystal testified and tried to explain her pull to David in her time of grief. David tried to come to her aid and Krystal ended up spilling her pills all over the floor.
At ConFusion, Amanda moaned to Jake about her queasy stomach. Jake suspected that she was pregnant. He disqualified himself as a possible babydaddy. Amanda rushed out.... Jesse and Angie sat down for a meal and chatted about Tad and Krystal's predicament. Angie beat herself up for not having intervened more seriously when she caught David and Krystal smooching. She vented about David's monstrosity and expressed her desire for Jesse to get a
search warrant so that she could prove that David is a criminal; Jesse tried to change the subject. Jesse got a call about the casino and left. Jake joined Angie and they talked about trying to prove that the pills David is feeding Krystal may not be FDA-approved. In lieu of a search warrant, they decided to break into Wildwind. Jake picked the lock and got him and Angie inside the manor. Jake found a record of the $5 million check that David had made out to Amanda. Angie pocketed some pills, which she brought back to the hospital.
Krystal's pills spilled all over the floor while she was testifying at her custody hearing. She apologized to the judge and rambled on about Babe's death and its effect on her. She broke down crying and yelled at JR, reminding him that she'd raised the woman who changed his life. The judge decided to award sole custody to Tad. Krystal's pleas for her to reconsider fell on deaf ears, though the judge did grant limited and supervised visitation to Krystal. Tad stood up and told the judge that Krystal was a great mom. He told Krystal that she could come and see Jenny right now, so long as she came along. David stayed behind and exchanged icy words with Adam.... Krystal was overjoyed to be reunited with Jenny back at the Martin house.
A masked Josh trained his gun on Josh, then bolted. Security followed him while Zach, Erica and Reese tended to an unconscious Bianca. She came to and Reese said she recognized the gunman from earlier, when he'd approached her pretending to be an architect. Reese described his ring, which Erica had a reaction to. Zach's team returned with the news that the man had helped himself to $10 million. Jesse arrived on the scene and Erica demanded that she be allowed to leave. Reese and Bianca insisted that they accompany her. Zach told Jesse that he thinks he's seen the shooter before.... In Erica's room, La Kane told Reese and Bianca that she thinks the ring Reese described was the one that she gave to Josh. Josh then revealed himself and blasted Erica for "giving away the surprise." Clearly unstable, Josh blamed Zach for
ruining his life and Kendall's and he accused Erica of having thrown him away. Bianca tried to intervene and Josh ordered her to get out of his way. Erica agreed to help Josh escape, though Bianca begged him to reconsider. After leaving her suite, Erica tried to slip past Zach and Jesse, who blocked her from leaving the casino. Josh emerged with a hostage: Reese. "Welcome home," said Zach sarcastically. Jesse tried to talk Josh down and not to leave with Reese as a hostage. "Let's work this out," Zach proposed. That further angered Josh. All efforts to get Josh to release Reese failed,
including Erica invoking Kendall's name. By the end of the episode, Zach and Josh were facing each other, both with guns drawn.
Amanda bought a pregnancy test and brought it back to the yacht. She hid the kit when JR showed up unexpectedly in search of a drink. JR filled Amanda in on Krystal's performance on the stand. Amanda vowed to help JR get his life back on track. He was about to kiss her when she became queasy and rushed out of the room. Amanda returned and chalked up her condition the flu shot she'd gotten earlier. She let JR crash on her bed then went to the bathroom and prayed for her test to turn out negative. Unbeknownst to her, Jake arrived and JR reluctantly let him in.
At the hospital, David learned that Kendall's organs were beginning to fail. He asked someone to contact Zach. "I need to tell him his wife is dying."

Let's say someone is going to buy SO and all its property, how much do you think it's worth?
Whatever somebody's willing to pay for it. | |||||
Probably about three fitty. | |||||||||||||||||
1 Billion dollars - pinky in corner of mouth | |||||||||
What currency we talking about here? The real question is of course what it will be worth in 6 - 8 weeks? What about theoretical dollars? Sneezing Panda is worth billions! | |||||||||||||
I'm not sure what it's actually worth, but it's very likely Google will buy it for a few billion dollars, give it away for free, and somehow get even richer by doing it. Those guys are evil wizards, I tell you! | |||
According to http://www.websitevaluecalculator.com/ it is worth $127! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
http://www.websiteoutlook.com/www.stackoverflow.com $3.84 million or 44.72 million pesos. That's a lot of franks and beans... | |||||||||
Good question! How big a problem is SO, and how can we convince the industry at large to buy out Jeff et. al. before all of our productivity is sucked away? Perhaps we should multiply the average time a user spends on SO by the average IT person's salary and the number of users. For illustrative purposes, if we're conservative and we say there are:
That's US$1,250,000 per week. Therefore, SO has cost US$65 million in lost productivity in the past year alone. It must be worth that much to close it down, for all our sakes, before it's too late! | |||||
I'm thinking of a number between enough to cover Jeff's mortgageand enough to cover Jeff's mortgage, the next three mortgages, and five new cars | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
