For just $50 you can class up your home or office with this 9/11 commemorative painting straight out of an imaginary alternate reality. I'll let the seller explain: "In an alternate universe after 9/11 (our nation's tragedy) McDonald's builds a giant GOLDEN ARCHES memorial to replace the fallen World Trade Towers. THEN, they go ahead and sell paintings of said memorial. This is that painting, and when you buy it you are living in that alternative universe. Go ahead, quit your job. It's the end of the world as you know it and you feel like eating a Whopper. Burger King is pretty good!" View Image ›
Teabaggers may have their very own terrorist. Austin Pilot Joe Stack, the troubled individual who (apparently deliberately) flew his plane into an IRS building this morning, reportedly left a manifesto behind that was largely an anti-taxation rant. (Thanks to Lefty for the nickname.) Update: Although Joe Stack's political affiliations (assuming he has some) aren't fully known yet, there's already a kind of disturbing outpouring of support for him in the form of anti-tax Facebook groups. Will be interesting to see where this one leads. Read More ›

You know when something you love becomes something you loathe? When something that was fun, becomes a task? I love you, blog, I really do. But you're starting to become a chore, and it's not cool.
So, without sounding dramatic, I'm taking a break from blogging, from product reviews, from giveaways and blogger competitiveness (yes, this really exists). But I'm sure I'll be back before you know it!
We've got kids parties almost every weekend until the end of the year, starting this weekend, I'm a couple of days away from starting my new job (which promises to keep me busy from day 1!) and my boys are getting big, WAY too quickly for my liking.
Luca's using phrases like "in the mean time" and is asking me to play his favourite song in the car on the way to school … which happens to be a Foster the People track. Really? What happened to Imvubu the Happiest Hippo???
We've got an amazing holiday, with our favourite family of Greeks, to prepare for and a home to fill, in the mean time, with the love, laughter and light of our two beautiful boys.
So, that's what I want to do: I want to play in the garden, read books (for me, as well as the boys!) and snuggle.
That's it.

Style Sells |
While the global recession has been unfolding, a weakening across the global property markets resulted. Across the board, a lack of cash flow - caused mainly by the credit crunch in the US over the last year - has urged many home owners to place their homes on the market for sale or rent, in turn putting pressure on property values all over the world. This has significantly reduced buyer confidence and the sheer amount of real estate buyers in the markets.
Fortunately, since the amount of quality real estate in dream destinations like the Turks and Caicos is limited, prices have remained much more stable than in many other places. Nonetheless, international real estate investors seem to be "sitting on the fence" rather than acting, which poses a problem for the Turks and Caicos economy. Within this overall economic environment, sellers of homes and condos have to ask themselves the questions of how to maximize their achieved sales prices and how to even end up in the relevant set of the few buyers out there. Buyers are now more careful than ever and want to know everything about what they are buying. They take every precaution to ensure that they are content with their potential purchase and that they are getting the best deal available. This is where perceived value comes into play - something, which seems to have been under-rated in the years of bullish real estate sales. With so many available listings competing with each other and fewer qualified buyers than ever before, sellers truly need to make their properties stand out above the rest. Both 'curb appeal' and 'staging' are two industry terms that all home owners hoping to sell should re-examine and actively put into practice. The architecture and interior design firm Fenimore Rosenberg Kolb Ltd. (FRK) and the furniture showroom and retail store Belongings, both based in the Grace Bay area of Providenciales, TCI, have recognized this market niche and are responding to the current down turn in the economy by offering a service focusing on all this. FRK and Belongings recently conducted informative seminars for real estate agents and property managers, acting on behalf of their clients, about how to effectively "dress up" the exteriors and stage the interiors of their properties to give them the presence they deserve and need in order to stand out above the rest. The seminars illustrated a number of examples of FRK's past and present work ranging from moderate to high-end renovations and interior staging efforts undertaken by the company to help its clients effectively sell or rent their properties. Mike Fenimore from FRK said: "We showed before and after photographs brilliantly contrasting how simply re-arranging some of their existing furnishings, removing some personal objects and introducing a moderate amount of new items could dramatically improve their space." The aim of the seminars was to reach the relevant people guiding owners to ultimately maximize their sales or rental returns. FRK's design staff can professionally asses the needs of an existing space after only one visit and suggest a number of quick and inexpensive solutions for improving the space. "Through the inventory of Belongings, we can easily suggest a number of attractive furniture and accessory items that can be rented at a nominal fee. FRK's designers will also advise on what to remove from the home to make it look and feel less personalized and more appealing to a wider array of potential buyers. This allows the client to dramatically improve the look of their home to the neutral eye, even if only temporarily for open house viewings and to photograph for advertising listings in real estate magazines and on-line." Mike Fenimore commented. He further explained, "Although FRK has always offered these services to the trade and individuals alike, we are now prominently featuring them in response to the recession to specifically help the TCI's waning real-estate market sales. It is no secret that these techniques are effective in selling homes, we have seen proof of it time and time again. The question is how long are you willing to wait to make your sale a reality?"

Anyone who is interested in the history of our area should drive to Merkel for a tour. Plan on stay at least an hour; it is not a small museum.

Xenophon Strategies, PRGN member in Washington DC, was the public relations agency of record for Virgin America during the new-entrant airline efforts to seek certification by the U.S. Department of Transportation
Foreign involvement in U.S. commercial aviation has long been a sensitive subject. Xenophon Strategies was challenged to help the airline develop a separate, positive U.S. identity while investor outreach and the certification process moved forward.
Because communications during the equity process is tightly regulated, Xenophon's strategy was aimed at creating positive news announcements throughout all stages of the airline's development. By rolling out news strategically, the airline would be positioned to enter the market with immediate impact followed by a period of sustained media coverage, including:
- Defining the airline in a positive way during the critical initial period by driving positive news throughout the equity, application and review process
- Reinforcing that the airline is owned and controlled by U.S. corporations and management teams by promoting lead investors and prominent executives in the media
- Establishing the U.S. based corporate communications staff, not those based in the U.K., as the source of accurate and timely informat for media
- Provided consistent and positive media coverage throughout the certification process in publications like The Wall Street Journal
- Monitored and corrected stories that appeared with messages counter to our desired position
- Worked with the airline's communications team to build relationships with Xenophon's longtime media contacts
- Helped establish the airline's own media presence
Our strategy was highly successful. Virgin America was granted preliminary approval by the U.S. Department of Transportation in March 2007, concluding three years of work for the airline.

Project Zomboid
May 6th, 2011 by CrusaderProject Zomboid is available to pre-order; a zombie survival RPG, it features an open world with an isometric viewpoint where players can cooperate or compete to survive in the undead landscape. There should be demo in the near term (i.e., this month), but in the meantime, the site emphasizes that this is not a game you can win:
Project Zomboid is about the choices you make, and how you choose to live your last days on Earth. As a hero who goes out in a moment of heroic self-sacrifice to save a defenseless family? Or a callous coward who saves his own skin and leaves his companions for dead?
It's these choices, and the story you weave in your adventure. That is what Project Zomboid is all about. Not saving the world with some pie in the sky cure, or flying away in a helicopter where everything will probably be okay. This is the apocalypse.
Here's a crafting demo:

Ann Biderman flanked by actors Jon Voight, left, and Liev Schreiber on the set of Ray Donovan
LOS ANGELES — On a set so authentically dressed to resemble a boxing gym that the smell of mildewed towels is almost discernible, a man on the floor howled in pain as two burly goons dragged him by the ankles.
Anyone familiar with the work of Ann Biderman, creator of the series Ray Donovan, would instantly recognize how the scene incorporates three of her favorite subjects: violence, Los Angeles and thugs.
"I seem to love writing about crime and tortured men," said Biderman, whose Southland, a recently canceled drama about Los Angeles police officers and detectives, was beloved by critics and those in law enforcement for its unwavering realism.
Ray Donovan, which premiered last month on Showtime, unfolds in neighborhoods of crazy excess such as Malibu and Beverly Hills.
This week, the series was picked up for a second season.
The brusque title character (Liev Schreiber) specializes in cleaning up after celebrities — a dead girl found in an athlete's bed, a closeted actor being blackmailed. Donovan is also constantly distracted by the needs of his wife and children; his two befuddled thug brothers; and the looming threat of his dad (Jon Voight), a murderous ex-con trying to slither back into his old spot as family patriarch.
Biderman said she had been thinking about placing a fixer at the center of a TV series for years. But Ray Donovan was born when she decided to embed the character in an unruly working-class family shadowed by the sex-abuse scandal in the Roman Catholic Church. As for the star of the series, Schreiber has been served well by his brutish intensity on Broadway, in independent films and as third leads in big-budget movies such as Salt. Starring on a TV series wasn't part of the plan, he said, until he read the pilot script for Ray Donovan.
Asked why she's so good at writing about emotionally complicated men, Biderman, 61, said, "Other kids watched Gigi, and I watched The Detective (a 1968 Frank Sinatra movie)."
But maybe she has also seen more than her fair share of such men. She was born in Miami, but, after her businessman father and free-spirit mother divorced when she was 8, she moved with her mother to the legendary Chelsea Hotel in Manhattan. Peggy Biderman introduced her to the world of film and avant-garde theater; and a life swirling with musicians, artists and gifted wordsmiths.
Although she'd distinguish herself as the screenwriter of Primal Fear, Public Enemies and Copycat, her first crack at television should have told her something: In the mid-'90s, a brief stint at NYPD Blue won her an Emmy for writing.
No one can say that Biderman doesn't believe in preparation. To sell David Nevins, Showtime's president of entertainment, on Ray Donovan, she brought in seven huge charts that mapped out the series.
Once she got the green light, Biderman assembled a writing staff on which she is the only woman.

Doug Martin's injury Friday led to questions about QB Josh Freeman, but ex-Tampa Bay Buccaners teammate Ronde Barber had an answer. Some might call it harsh. Others might see it as obvious.

Those of you who have gotten to know me know that I am absolutely a sports freak. So this time of year is absolutely my favorite, because especially in an Olympic year, I am in sports heaven.
We start off the year with the US Figure Skating Championships. The men's championship blew me away. Although I am an Evan Lysacek fan, Jeremy Abbott has been growing on me. I adored his short program choreography and his long program simply blew me away (and blew the field away too!). If you are an Olympics fan, don't you dare miss the men's final, because it will simply rock and the US has three legitimate medal contenders!

Then, we move on to the Australian Open. Huge tennis fan here. Lots of late nights were spent watching the Aussie Open, and I was thrilled to see Serena gut it out and win, although I would have loved Murray to pull through. Shame Roddick didn't make it further as well.
Next up, we have the pièce de résistance, the Winter Olympics. From Feb 12-28, I will be glued to the television. The Olympics are, to me, one of the last pure things in the world – seeing athletes come together under a common spirit to strive to perform their best when it counts… it just doesn't get better than that. During the Winter Olympics, my husband and I literally watch every single minute we can. Obviously, as a former figure skater, that is near and dear to my heart, but we love it all, right down to the curling.
The sports craze doesn't end there – oh no, it's far from over and we don't even get a break. March is chock-full of Spring Training goodness. It's every year during March that I wish I lived in Orlando, so that I could see this each day:
And of course we are big college basketball fans, so the March madness also descends upon us. Juggling the two gets tiring, let me tell you!
Then, finally – FINALLY – baseball season is here and after an excruciatingly long off-season, I can root for my Braves once again.
So I'm already tired just thinking about the next few months! But it's always so so worth the sleep deprivation.
Are you as much of a sports nut as I am?

A few months back I paraphrased James (Snakehead) Carville, a Democratic consultant famous for getting ole Billy Jay elected some years ago, when I said, "It's the sugar, stupid!" (Although now is a good time to repeat Carville's words to all Democrats within earshot, "It's the economy,stupid!") I've watching the labeling on any number of food products lately, while food manufacturers try and repackage many of their products as new and improved, while they are still the same old junk. Here are a number of things to stay far away from:
1. Powdered cane sugar
2. Sweet and Low
3. Pure Cane Light Brown Sugar
4. Pure Cane Dark Brown Sugar
5. Molasses
6. Agave Nectar
7. Busy Bee Honey
8. Equal
9. Pure Cane Granulated Sugar
10. Corn Syrup
Sugar is sugar is sugar. And these are all "sugar," as far as your body is concerned. If you want to lose weight, you really should avoid them all, as much as possible. Agave nectar is being promoted heavily these days, especially by the vegetarian crowd, but the reality is, it's just another sugar. Just for an example, let's take cookies, which everybody likes. The best commercial cookies could have as many as 4 of the ingredients listed above, in addition to flour and chocolate. Actually, the chocolate is the ingredient least likely to screw up your system, but in all likelihood, there will be more of all the other ingredients than chocolate in the recipe. If you're looking for a sweetener, you could use Truvia, Stevia, or Xylitol. Stevia and Xylitol products have many different names and can be found in most grocery stores. Truvia is being marketed much the same as sugar packets, which from a marketing point of view makes a lot of sense. But what I would encourage more is to consume fruit in its natural form. Eat an apple, a peach, some cherries, blueberries, watermelon …there is an abundance of great fruit in the marketplace today and you should take advantage of it. It is not only sound medical advice to eat the rainbow of fruits and vegetables, but it's great for your taste buds, which believe it or not, will not steer you wrong. When you stop eating packaged products and start eating real foods, it won't take long for your body to signal you that some of that crap you've been eating doesn't pass the taste test, anymore.
Here's a few more things that are almost all sugar:
1) Welch's Grape Jelly
2) Aunt Jemima Pancake Syrup
3) Maple Syrup
4) Strawberry Preserves
5) Teriyaki Sauce
Are you starting to get the picture? This is why every American is consuming 166 pounds of sugar every year.

The lights are on
Every summer, the E3 convention descends upon Los Angeles and gives gamers plenty to talk about for the next year. These talking points usually revolve around new game announcements or console reveals, but there are usually a handful of embarrassing or odd moments in the mix as well. Below, you'll find some of the odder and more embarrassing demonstrations in the recent years of E3.
Mr. Caffeine
In 2011, Ubisoft made the baffling decision to let their conference be hosted by some unfunny uncle you met at a friend's wedding reception. From "Tom Ca-lancy" to a repeated Wayne's World reference from 1992, a never-ending stream of unfunny and annoying sayings spewed from Mr. Caffeine's mouth during the conference.
Nintendo's 2008 Press Conference
If hardcore gamers were wary about the Wii in its first couple of years on the market, the 2008 press conference made it clear that they were no longer the Japanese publisher's intended audience. Between Cammie Dunaway's awkward rapport with snowboarder Shaun White, some goober named Ravi Drums flailing around like a moron, Nintendo's insistence that 2008 would be the "year of MotionPlus," the introduction of the WiiSpeak peripheral that went nowhere, and industry icon Shigeru Miyamoto prancing around pretending to play a flute, there was no shortage of awful moments from Nintendo's 2008 presser.
Jamie Kennedy Isn't Funny
Before launching into a series of tired "gamers are lame virgins" jokes, Jamie seems confused and asks a stagehand "Where are my jokes?" We were wondering the same thing, Jamie.
Kobe Plays NBA 2K12
From the moment Kobe Bryant walks on stage and says "Give me the remote. Give me the thing," everyone watching this conference knew that we were in for a useless celebrity cameo. A seemingly bored Bryant offers such insightful comments as "This is crazy" and "This game looks a little too real," and the presentation did little to get anyone excited about NBA 2K12's Move functionality.
The Boomerang
In 2005, Sony revealed the conceptual design for the Playstation 3's controller. Shaped like some kind of metallic boomerang, it was met with near universal derision. By 2006, they had gone back to the drawing board and introduced the familiar-looking SixAxis to the relief of Playstation fans.
Sony's 2006 Press Conference
Like Nintendo in 2008, Sony's '06 presser was full of rough moments. The price was set ridiculously high, unexciting titles like Afrika, Eye of Judgment, and Genji 2 were shown off, and Sony tried to steal some thunder from Nintendo by introducing motion controller to the PS3's controller.
Rock Revolution Crash and Burn
Here's a tip: If you're going to show your game off to the press and public at E3, maybe you should know how to play it (or pick a more appropriate difficulty setting).
Konami's Insane 2010 Conference
I had the misfortune of attending this event live, and I spent most of it wondering if the convention center's water fountains had been spiked. Wacky dance numbers took up plenty of time, N3 designer Tak Fujii kept awkwardly milking the crowd, heads fell off their shoulders, and the room was invaded by masked luchadores at one point.
Keep an eye on the site next week, as we'll be sure to update you with the best (and worst) moments of E3 2013.
Email the author Dan Ryckert, or follow on Twitter, Google+, Facebook, and Game Informer.
Those are some odd oddities.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!! This was hilarious!!! Thanks, Dan! Bro, you're awesome. This was freaking hilarious.
they should have added all kinect demos
Maybe the Xbone will add it's conference to this list after E3.
Hahahahaha! XD The Sony press conference is the funniest!
Lol, the Jaws Theme for the Konami bit was hilarious.
Oh these are some classic oddities. And most were very painful to watch happen.
I too was baffled by Mr. Caffeine. Did the CEO of Ubisoft lose a bet and have to include that dipsh!t into the press conference?

Yes there were embassies attached and we regret any loss of US life. But on 9-11 Bushie let Bin Laden attach us right on US soil. Pres.

The first time I took photos in a long while. Such a nice return. San Francisco is a wealth of material, and I got pulled in block-by-block, subject by subject.
Speaking of subjects, my penchant for the inanimate can only bring me so far; despite my strong feelings for many of these shots, I've been considering switching it up and giving myself a new challenge. Going in the complete opposite direction, I would like to try some people as subjects. Lighting, composition, mood, patience, and interaction will be completely different. Looking forward to it!
Enjoy my angles.

Not too much going on. The way I like it. There's something serene in these types of shots. Composition is paramount. Patterns are everywhere.
It's no secret to my friends that I love colors. This collection highlights some of my favorite color digital photographs that I've taken. All of them are straight-up photographs except where otherwise noted in the captions. Opposed to my other series, Color Corrections, these only have minimal levels editing, with no adjustments to hue or saturation.

Go visit Clarion Alley in the Mission, between Valencia and Mission streets. Most of the murals are respected and go untagged for long periods of time. The mix of colors and styles is captivating. I grabbed all these shots in a short window of time on a sunny day on my way home from something-or-other.

Small Business Success without Government HelpBy Jim Gammon
Our revolution was about individuals and business being forced to do business in accordance with British dictates. It was called Mercantilism. Colonists were allowed to buy only products specified by King George III from approved suppliers. The justification was that we colonists owed our existence to the Crown that provided the environment for our success. Trade laws were enacted between 1650 and 1674 designed to give Britain a virtually complete monopoly on colonial trade, with them setting the prices. The problem wasn't just taxation and a lack of representation that caused the revolution; it was excessive government controls and restrictions on everyday business and life. What Mr. Obama, most liberals, and too many Republicans in our government don't understand is how real business works. America was an experiment. The concept was "What if people were allowed the freedom to live their lives under a minimum of government interference?" As it turned out, things would work out very well indeed! I worked my way to success, and it was a long time.... (Read Full Article)

In a bit of good news for Japan's battered economy, Moody's Investors Service raised the country's foreign currency debt ceiling, making it easier and cheaper for big Japanese companies like Toyota to borrow dollars and other foreign currencies.
By raising the ceiling to Aaa, its top ranking, Moody's made it possible for Japan's most solvent companies to borrow money at lower rates than the government. That development is unusual, particularly in a developed industrial economy, and reflects both the strength of some Japanese exporters and the problems confronting the government.
Japan's national debt is exploding and the country's yen-denominated debt has fallen to A2, the sixth-best ranking. At the same time, companies like Toyota have strong prospects and plenty of cash.
The decision lets Moody's rate credit issued by companies in foreign currencies, including dollars, at Aaa, the highest allowable. Japanese companies that operate overseas raise funds in currencies other than yen by issuing bonds and other securities. Higher credit ratings suggest less risk to investors, so companies can offer lower interest rates on their debts.

When will educators admit that their own longitudinal studies of the benefits of Full-Day Kg. prove that by the fourth grade you can't tell which kids had Half-Day Kg. and which had Full-Day? When will they stop BSing the legislatures about the benefits of FDKg? When the money stops, that's when.
Either the taxpayers are paying for children to be separated from parental influences for a half day more, or for half of a day of free babysitting.
Puleeze, don't tell me how much more they are learning. The studies mentioned above show they are not learning more. Even the EVSC had a study done after 8 years of ADKg and it showed the same thing and they buried it. The kids' learning abilities averaged out around the 4th grade or 10 years of age. Mom Nature at work.
Our kids are learning that teachers/aids/strangers are the people they should be modeling themselves after, not their parents and creating weaker bonds with their families as a result.
I don't remember having Columbine or Newtown type incidents before we started sending our kids out of our homes so we could go to work to pay to have them out of our homes. When are close bonds supposed to be created? While they sleep?
The benefits of All-Day Kg are primarily more jobs for teachers, when the national birthrate has declined for the first time in 50 years, and an excuse to renovate or build new classrooms.
Too many education administrators are mostly money orientated and self-serving. They need to get their heads out of the clouds and their fannies back in the classroom for a couple years.

Ummm.... did I tell you guys that I am taking CoCo to Venice? Yep.
The Passports arrived Saturday, and their timely arrival ruined my last chance to call this whole thing off. I mean if we hadn't recieved the passports then I would have an excuse, right?
And I am terrified.
As it gets closer I am beginning to wonder why I thought I could do this.
Take my baby off to a FOREIGN country...which is something I've never done, gone to a FOREIGN country.
And I don't know if you know this but in a FOREIGN country they don't speak AMERICAN (I won't say English, but you know what I mean). Also they don't have Starbucks, in fact, Lola and Thurston both on different occasions have told me that they don't have artificial sweeteners! Whaaaa? And, the food is supposed to be really expensive. And they don't speak AMERICAN. And they don't make coffee correctly. And they don't speak AMERICAN.
We should still go, right?

Well the CJ news just keeps on coming. Have not been able to find out anything accept what's in the PR. Not sure how this will affect us or how we can utilize it yet.
Did anyone else know about this? Was it posted somewhere else and I missed it somehow? Or was I the 1st to discover this?

OCHOA DIAZ, HÉCTOR and RIOS MILLAN, ANA MARÍA. Leadership as a core competence that transformed a Colombian company into an international giant: the case of Cementos Argos. estud.gerenc. [online]. 2011, vol.27, n.121, pp. 39-58. ISSN 0123-5923.
Cementos Argos has long been regarded as a giant in the Colombian cement manufacturing industry. Thanks to its large capacity to reach a solid position in the domestic market as well as to its unconventional internationalization strategies, it has earned a prominent place in Colombia and other Latin American countries and even in such strong markets as the United States. This research study is an effort to document the international experience of Argos from the perspective of the most widely accepted theories of internationalization available in specialized literature, using the methodological case-study approach. As a result, it was found that retention strategies and the organizational redesign generated by the leadership of corporative management, are vital tools to ensure growth of the company in local and external markets.
Keywords : Internationalization; essential competencies; leadership; loyalty; Antioquia Business Group.

with fisher in the other side of the bench, nagkaroon ng tyansa ang bench ng lakers plus the 6th man award is kind of a curse.......
OKC has backcourt and wing advantage. Lakers have size in the frontcourt.
This series will boil down as to who uses that advantage the most. Gasol cant afford to have an offnight again and Bynum needs to play defense like he did in Game 1 of Denver series.
in 6 games, it's the Lakers. if it goes to 7, it's OKC.
What is the status of Perkins? Laki chance ng Lakers if he can't play. If Lakers can steal 1 from the first 2 games in OKC then Lakers in 6 but if not OKC in 5.
^ Perk is listed as day-to-day.
Thunder in 6.
OKC has a good defensive frontcourt that I think can contain Bynum and Gasol. Also, unlike 2010, the best player in this series belongs to OKC (Durant). They are hungry, younger and faster.
OKC in 6 or 7.
OT: pag nanalo ang Clippers bukas, scheduling nightmare ang mangyayari sa Staples Center, with Lakers, Clippers and their NHL team Kings playing in Game 3 and 4.
Latest: kaya pala nagkaroon ng back-to-back games ang Lakers sa homecourt nila is because the Kings will be using the Staples Center for their Game 3 and 4 of NHL WCF on May 17 and 20.
MWP will handle the Sixth Man of the Year.
It's key for the Lakers to limit Durant's teammates' scoring. Westbrook will be his Westbrick self again in this series.
Hmmm.. This will be an exciting series!
OKC in 6 or 7.
Advantages of OKC
1. Much tougher bigs (defensively)
2. Derek Fisher on their side
3. Consistent bench player (Harden)
This is going to be the best matchup in the 2nd round of the playoffs.
Durantula VS Black Mamba - who's more clutch?
Harden VS MWP - round 2! sapakan na!
I'm feeling Fisher will deliver at least 1 game winner in this series. =)
if pau and bynum play focused instead of pu$$y basketball from game 1, lakers in 6 or 7.
o Bynum, wala nang easy ngayon ha? Oklahoma City na ang kalaban. Hihirit ka na naman sa media.
OKC in 5 or 6 games... sweep kung bawas turnovers si Westbrook...
This series is so fucking on."Its not my concern. It's their concern," World Peace said of the Thunder fans. "We live in America freedom of speech. You have freedom to do anything that you want to do."
World Peace can be both wonderfully and dangerously oblivious, and on this night he was dressed only in a button-down shirt, his underwear and a pair of flip-flops as he spoke. No, he hasn't personally apologized to Harden for flooring him with that vicious elbow on April 22. Nor does he plan to do so. Even a simple handshake seems out of the question.
"I dont shake substitutions' hands, World Peace said in a reference to Harden's Sixth Man of the Year status. He doesnt start."
If Fisher torches the Lakers in this series, I might think of killing myself.
Thunder will sweep the tired Lakers. Just like last year.
If Lakers can win at least one of the first two games then the Lakers will have a chance winning it. Lakers in 6
Sana wake-up call yung series against Denver.
magandang pagkakataon to kay bynum, mukhang isisingle coverage lang nila si bynum dito at kobe....
and mas focus ang magiging game plan ng lakers in terms of defense sa okc dahil most of the time sa 3 tao lang nagtatagal ang bola di gaya sa denver.......
hmmmmmm mukhang may isang laker fan nag-ala singson at pumusta sa kalaban ha.........kung tama ang hula ko.......

PRC Extends Deadline for Comments on Ratesetting Reforms to Sept. 24; DMA to Host Teleconference Calls
August 29, 2007 The Postal Regulatory Commission (PRC) today extended the dates for comments on the agencys proposed regulations to implement a modern ratemaking and classification system for market dominant and competitive mail products. The comment period has been extended from September 14 to September 24, 2007, and the date for reply comments is extended from September 28 to October 9, 2007.
According to the PRC, publication of the proposed regulations in the Federal Register has been delayed for an unusual and unanticipated length of time, and the extension of the comment period assures that the public has an adequate opportunity to provide views. The PRC added that it remains committed to expediting the development of these important rules.
On Monday, the Direct Marketing Association (DMA) announced it will host two teleconference calls to provide DMA members with an opportunity to discuss their views relating to the PRCs proposed ratesetting rules in accordance with the provisions of the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act (PAEA). Open to all interested members, DMA will conduct the teleconference calls on:
· Thursday, August 30 at 3:00 p.m. (ET)
· Wednesday, September 5 at 3:00 p.m. (ET)
To participate in either of the two calls, DMA members should contact Tom Foulkes, DMA vice president for government affairs, at email@example.com.
While the PRCs proposals have not yet been published in the Federal Register, which is still expected soon, they are accessible on the agencys Web site by clicking August 15 on the PRC calendar at http://www.prc.gov/main.asp?Left=calendarL.asp&Right=calendar_detail.asp?CalendarShow=Listings.
In addition to encouraging members to submit individual comments to the PRC, DMA this week met with Commission staff. DMA also continues to work with other mailing community groups and is developing its own formal comments for submission to the PRC.
In unveiling the proposals earlier this month, PRC Chairman Dan G. Blair said, Early implementation benefits all customers of the US Postal Service. In three separate appearances before Congress this year, I said the Commission would meet its goal of issuing final regulations by the end of October. The regulations will reflect the input we received through our two Notices of Advanced Rulemaking issued this year, as well as the three field hearings we held this summer. The parties contributions are appreciated. Were on track, and I thank my fellow Commissioners and Commission staff for moving forward so quickly.
Blair noted that there was a general consensus that avoiding a final omnibus rate case under existing procedures would allow the Postal Service and the Commission to dedicate more resources to implementing other aspects of the PAEA. Having this new framework in place, will allow the Postal Service to operate with the flexibility envisioned by the Act, he said.
The PRCs proposed rulemaking consists of three parts:
· Regulations related to competitive products;
· Regulations related to rate adjustments for market dominant products, including the formula for calculation of the rate cap under which annual adjustments may be made; and
· Establishment of a Mail Classification Schedule, which categorizes products as either market dominant or competitive.
The proposed regulations provide a broad framework that will evolve over time, and we will issue proposals shortly amending the Commission rules concerning complaints and reporting requirements to provide additional transparency, Blair said.
The Commissions proposed regulation seeks to make the new rate system workable for all stakeholders by:
· Enabling the Postal Service to price its own products;
· Ensuring competitive products pay their own way;
· Improving accountability; and
· Maintaining universal service at affordable rates.

See me at the Mustang Ranch Resort!
Hi guys!
I love spending time at the Mustang Ranch Resort! It's located in Sparks, Nevada about 20 minutes from the Reno airport. The Wild Horse (http://www.thewildhorse.com ) is now known as the Mustang Ranch Resort. The Mustang Ranch Brothel is the "sister brothel" which is part of the entertainment complex.
The Mustang Ranch Resort, along with the Mustang Ranch Brothel, is the most upscale, beautiful brothel that you will ever see… the beautifully decorated rooms, fabulous 5 star suites, pools, Jacuzzis, and bars with nude dancers will have you impressed. The food is fantastic, and soon there will be an exclusive steak restaurant. I'm glad there's a gym! It's become my "home away from home." The owners treat everyone as if they are family and maintain an atmosphere of fun in a safe environment.
Over the years, I've had fans ask me the question, "Where can I see you?" When I was invited to spend a couple of weeks there for the first time over a year ago, it was a new thought to me. Prior to that, I had never thought about working in a brothel. But it made perfect sense to me to go because safety to me is a priority and the ambience is amazing. Ever since that first trip, I've made regular trips!
Yes, besides just having a website EricaLaurenXXX about the "Girlfriend Experience" I really enjoy being with someone for real…giving him a memorable experience. Whether you have an hour to spend, or a weekend, you can spend time with me. And while I can't discuss prices anywhere but there, I do work with a range of budgets. You can make an appointment or find out when I'm there next by calling the Mustang Ranch Resort (http://www.thewildhorse.com) at (775) 343-1224.
see ya

Richard Berry
Richard Berry
If for no other reason than that he was the original writer and performer of "Louie Louie" (itself based on "El Loca Cha Cha" by Rene Touzet), Richard Berry holds a permanent place of honor in the history of rock & roll. Beyond that, though, Berry was an important, if secondary, figure of the early- and mid-'50s Los Angeles R&B scene. As a teenager with the Flairs and as a solo act, Berry recorded quite a few singles that demonstrated his versatility with ballads, novelty songs, and even Little Richard-styled numbers. His facility with deep-voiced comic material was a clear forerunner of the Coasters, and in fact he was the uncredited lead singer on Leiber & Stoller's "Riot in Cell Block #9," recorded by the Robins (later to mutate into the Coasters). He took another uncredited vocal as Ella James' deep-voiced sparring partner on "Roll With Me, Henry," one of the biggest R&B hits of the mid-'50s. Berry originally recorded "Louie Louie" in 1956; the record was a regional hit in several West Coast cities, but no more than that.
