Miss Me Boot Stretch Jean 5 5
LOVE! I had to get these jeans as soon as I saw them online. I have been waiting for a casual pair of Miss Me's for quite awhile as I'm not a huge fan of all the rhinestones and sequins they put on all of their jeans. They are super comfortable and do stretch out a bit throughout the day. Love them! February 2, 2013
Simple but stylish I love the look of these jeans. They aren't too blingy so you can wear them with just about anything. They aren't as stretchy as the dark Miss Me jeans I have I think there's just a difference in fabrics. Through out the day they stretch a little and become more comfortable. January 19, 2013
Finally a Miss Me jean that doesn't look cheap with all of the rhinestones! These jeans were what I have been waiting for! I'm kind of tired of all of the rhinestones on their jeans because they just fall off and look cheap. These are simple and they look great. I'm have a 36" inseam and these jeans have about an inch under my feet. They are fantastic. I'm usually a 27. Had to get the 28. January 19, 2013
They fit good and look good They fit great and I love how they look. Miss me brand is my favorite and I would recommend this jean to anyone. January 18, 2013
Miss Me Boot Stretch Jeans are the BEST!! I own several pair of Miss Me Boot Stretch jeans, and they are the best jeans I have ever owned. The fit is second to none, and they are so stylish. People stop me to tell me how cute my jeans look. And, I LOVE the long inseams that Miss Me provides. I am 5'10 and take a 35 or 37" inseam...it is a dream!! Thanks Miss Me and Buckle for making this stay at home mom look stylish & hip :-) January 17, 2013

By Andrew Barksdale Staff writer
Army Brig. Gen. Jeffrey A. Sinclair's court-martial on sexual assault and other charges has been delayed a second time, Fort Bragg officials said Tuesday.
The trial was set to begin Monday. Based on a motion filed by Sinclair's defense team, a military judge pushed back the trial to Jan. 7, a spokesman said.
Sinclair, 50, is accused of sexually assaulting a captain under his command near the end of a three-year affair with her. His other charges under military law include improper relationships with three other women and misuse of government travel money when visiting a mistress.
Sinclair, a former deputy commander of the 82nd Airborne Division, has admitted to the affair but denies the other accusations.
His defense team, which includes several civilian lawyers and a public relations agency, says the captain fabricated the sexual assault claims to avoid being prosecuted for adultery.
Josh Zeitz, senior vice president for the MWW public relations agency in New York, said there were logistical reasons and pending appeals that require more time before trial.
"There were a number of procedural hurdles that had not yet been cleared," Zeitz said Tuesday.
The defense team has appealed a decision by the military judge, Col. James Pohl, to deny pretrial motions seeking to have the bulk of the case thrown out.
Sinclair's lead defense lawyer, Richard Scheff of Philadelphia, has raised several motions concerning unlawful command influence, or UCI. The defense argues that President Obama's public promises to pursue and punish sexual predators in the military put improper pressure on the Pentagon to charge Sinclair, despite what his lawyers contend is a weak case by the prosecution.
Scheff told The Associated Press the government agreed with his assessment to delay the trial.
"Separately, we have sought appellate review of the denial of our UCI motions, and that is working its way through the system as well," he said.
Zeitz said the defense team and prosecutors agreed they needed more time, in part because of the approaching holiday season and the busy schedule of the military judge.
"This is an extraordinary case," Zeitz said. "You have over 100 witnesses and a judge who was stationed in Guantanamo and hearing a lot of cases there. He obviously has a very full docket."
The delay marks the second time the trial has been postponed. The court-martial had previously been set to get underway in July.
In August, a panel of five jurors - all of whom are male Army generals - was seated for the trial.
A 27-year Army veteran and married father of two, Sinclair has pleaded not guilty to eight criminal charges including forcible sodomy, indecent acts, violating orders and adultery. Most of the charges come from the affair with a female captain who says Sinclair twice forced her to perform oral sex while she served under his command in Iraq and Afghanistan.

London: Rafael Nadal has lost in straight sets in the Gerry Weber Open quarter-finals to defending champion Philipp Kohlschreiber of Germany.Top seed Nadal was on a 13-match winning run that including a record seventh French Open triumph, but went down 6-3 6-4 to Kohlschreiber in Halle.Kohlschreiber will play Tommy Haas in the last eight after the German beat third seed Tomas Berdych 6-4 3-6 7-5. "I`ve played almost every match possible since Indian Wells. When I`m ready to come back, I`ll go to Wimbledon"Second seed Roger Federer overcame Milos Raonic 6-7 (4-7) 6-4 7-6 (7-3).The five-time champion will next face Russia`s Mikhail Youzhny , who beat Radek Stepanek 6-4 4-6 6-4.Federer`s path to the title looks less problematic following Nadal`s defeat by eighth seed Kohlschreiber."I said it was going to be tough," said Nadal. "He plays well on this court. You just have to congratulate him."He played very aggressively, served well, returned well. He played better than me. I was suffering when he was serving. I didn`t have that energy to change the situation."Nadal confirmed he would now be heading home to Mallorca to rest ahead of Wimbledon, which starts on 25 June."I can`t practice on grass there but it`s better not to practice for a few days. It`s time to rest with my family, friends, to relax," he added."I`ve played almost every match possible since Indian Wells. When I`m ready to come back, I`ll go to Wimbledon."Nadal was in difficulty from his first service game and Kohlschreiber, the eighth seed, wrapped up the first set in just over 30 minutes.After saving two breaks in game one of the second set, Nadal then wasted three chances to break in game four.Kohlschreiber kept calm to seal a fine victory and reach the last four.BDST: 1821 HRS, June 16, 2012Edited byChanchal Ghosh, Newsroom Editor

The commercial mortgage market is booming, having experienced some of the most favorable lending conditions since 2008, The Wall Street Journal reported Nov. 20. The market likely will see $46 billion of new mortgage issues by the end of the year, and as much as $65 billion in 2013.
The market also is experiencing an increase in the availability of mezzanine debt, something that has been even rarer than commercial mortgage-backed securities, the Journal reported. Mezzanine debt is a subordinated debt or preferred equity instrument that represents a claim on a company's assets and is senior only to that of common shares.
With greater financing availability, borrowers are obtaining much needed capital while benefiting from lower interest rates. The Journal reported that the rate on recent CMBS issues has been as low as 0.83 percentage points over interest rates swaps — the lowest since 2007 and down from 1.6 points earlier this year.
With lower interest rate refinancing opportunities, many borrowers have been taking cash out of their properties. Centerbridge Partners, Paulson & Co. and Blackstone Group, owners of hotel chain Extended Stay America, are looking to borrow $3.5 billion by selling CMBS and mezzanine debt with the hope of pocketing $700 million of the proceeds and using the rest to replace existing debt. And Cerberus Capital Management shored up its balance sheet by taking out a $1.8 billion loan to refinance hotels in Hawaii and San Francisco. The deal included mezzanine debt as well as a senior mortgage, the Journal reported.
A year ago, there was concern about the availability of refinancing for commercial mortgages. Investors were facing $41 billion of CMBS scheduled to mature in 2012 and $30 billion in 2013. However, the easing of credit and less-than-anticipated defaults and foreclosures have opened up the market. However, some analysts expressed concern that the expansion of mezzanine debt can raise loan-to-value ratios to unhealthy levels, the Journal reported.

Detailed description
CAudioEqualizer is used for audio effects. This class constructor has overloaded functions, such as CMdaAudioPlayerUtility and CMdaAudioOutputStream. The CAudioEqualizer* NewL (CMdaAudioOutputStream &) function does not work because it is not implemented internally. It returns KErrNotSupported.
However, CAudioEqualizer* NewL (CMdaAudioOutputStream &) is implemented from S60 3rd Edition, FP1 onwards. CAudioEqualizer can be used with CMdaAudioPlayerUtility without any issues.
No solution available.

The City Park Apartment II is elegant, stylish, unfussy and yet it's a very cosy home. Beautiful location by Vondelpark!
The City Park Apartment is elegant, stylish, unfussy and yet it's a very cosy home. The neutral colour palette of greys and browns with hints of creamy beige warms the place up. The result is a contemporary home with a modern edge. The open plan living/dining area has a serene atmosphere with a lot of natural light coming in through the large windows.
A partition separates the living/dining room from the sleeping area, which is fitted out with a double bed. The living/dining area also features a large comfortable sofa which can transform into a bed, allowing the apartment to house up to four persons. There is a handsome dining table for four next to the kitchen – fully equipped with everything you might need to prepare your meals plus a very convenient dishwasher. The bathroom is white tile fresh with a fantastic shower head. And for your entertainment there is Flat Screen TV.
The City Park Apartment II is on the third floor with elevator. A dapper!
This apartment is located in a Solid building. A Solid is a beautiful sustainable building that gives space to what people want. Tenants are completely free in the use of the space. Housing, business, or a combination. This creates a solid mix of a free variable functions. A Solid is a 'city in a building'.
Important information:
Construction work takes place on the main road and pavement alongside the apartment building until the end of April 2012. This may cause inconvenience and the building is not directly reachable by car.
Services and facilities:
Bed linen and towels are provided.
This apartment features COCO-MAT beds. Established in 1989, COCO-MAT today is a recognised leader for natural sleep products, bed linen, towels and furniture for homes and hotels.
Fair-trade Max Havelaar Cotton
The bath linen we use is made of Fair-trade cotton. Fair-trade cotton is cotton that is produced durable without any insecticides in developing countries. By paying an honest price to local farmers the environment of those who are directly involved is improved step by step.
We always keep looking for new ways to contribute to a better environment.
The City Park Apartment is next to the Vondelpark, Amsterdam's most popular park. A favourite of bohemians and nature lovers, this park spreads out over 47 hectares and is distinguished by its classic 19th century English-style landscaping and the many elegant late 19th century mansions which surround it.
Throughout the months of June, July and August, Vondelpark offers free open air theatre presenting around 125 performances of classical music, jazz, dance, cabaret, ethnic, etc. The Centrum de Roos, a beautiful rose garden with over 70 species is also worth visiting. Both the Filmuseum's Vertigo café and the Blauwe Theehuis have terraces where you can sit and chill out, sip a drink while people watching under the sun.
Nevertheless, the City Park Apartments are at the city centre! Just five minutes away is Leidseplein Square vibrating with bars, restaurants, clubs and theatres such as the Stadsschouwburg municipal theatre, the Leidseplein Theatre, Paradiso and Melkweg Theatres, the Nieuwe De La Mar Theater, the Holland Casino, the American Hotel and the City Theatre cinema. From here you're already in the Canal Belt and you could walk the whole city centre if you so desire or, easily, find a mean of transportation. Beware: before crossing the streets watch out for bicycles, but specially for the TRAMS!

X-Men Origins: Wolverine
Movie Review
If last summer taught us anything, it was that comic-book movies can encompass the ridiculous, the sublime and everything in between. Sure, some naysayers still refuse to take seriously any film where the protagonist has superpowers and an epithet for a name. But they may eventually go the way of those who insisted that a great Western or a great horror film was an oxymoron.
That said, X-Men Origins: Wolverine marks a return to the summer tradition of the just-plain-dumb superhero movie. It plays out like the most expensive DVD special featurette ever made, delving into the backstory of a protagonist whose origins were already pretty well explained by previous films. Legions of supporting characters pop up and vanish, presumably as shout-outs to fans of the X-Men comics, but a reason to care never materializes.
In the first three X-Men films, Wolverine was the mysterious bad boy of the mutant ensemble, the man with a Dark Past who routinely lost his shirt and got young girls' hearts a-hopping. The problem is, Hugh Jackman's rendition of the brooding Byronic act only works in small doses. Now that he has an entire movie to rage at the heavens and utter lines such as "Where I'm going, there is no redemption," it's more obvious that exuding animalistic menace isn't his thing. Every time he scowls really hard (most shots), he looks like he might rather be singing and dancing at the Kodak Theatre.
So, just what makes Wolverine so pissed off all the time? The film begins way back in the 1840s, when, we learn, the dude first popped his superhuman bone claws after he accidentally killed his own daddy. This prelude is so rushed that it seems like a pure concession to comic-book canon. But then writers David Benioff and Skip Woods revise that canon by making their hero's half-brother grow up into the likewise manicure-needy Sabretooth (Liev Schreiber), Wolverine's enduring but unrelated rival in the Marvel universe.
Not that it matters. Check the Wikipedia entry for any long-running comic-book character, and you'll find dozens of alternate origin stories and reinterpretations. What does matter is that the film's new Cain-and-Abel dynamic isn't dynamic. In a well-crafted credit sequence, we watch the two clawed Canadian brothers fight side by side in every modern conflict from the Civil War to Vietnam. The last is too much for Schreiber's character, who soaks up the general decadence and becomes a raping, murdering sociopath. (If you watched Watchmen, you've already seen this part.)
What he never becomes is interesting. Schreiber has the acting chops and charisma to do a villainous turn like Alan Rickman's in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. But not with a script where his motivation boils down to playground logic: "You're totally lame, so I'm gonna impale you with my claws."
Having noted that they can't be killed by normal means, the sinister Col. William Stryker (Danny Huston) recruits the brothers for a mutant task force. A blur of mad-scientist experiments, superfluous cameos and fight scenes follows, from which a few break-out stars emerge. One is the majestic "Canadian" landscape (actually various parts Down Under), pictorially shot by director Gavin Hood. Another is Ryan Reynolds, who savors the one-liners in his all-too-brief role as the mouthy mercenary Deadpool. Taylor Kitsch and Dominic Monaghan add color to the proceedings as mutants with human quirks, but their characters are so superfluous to the action that they seem to have been inserted merely to keep X-Men experts alert.
Right now, superhero movies have evolved to a point where filmmakers often opt to cram in maximum trivia to appeal to the hard-core fan base, while appeasing clueless casual viewers with bone-crunching fights and explosions. It's nice to see the long-maligned comic-book nerds wielding serious demographic clout. But the "something for everyone" strategy barely worked for Watchmen, which had a strong source plot, and it doesn't work at all for Wolverine, which doesn't. Not all moviegoers know or care who Professor X or Gambit is, but everyone appreciates a good story well told. Let's hope the summer's next blockbuster has one.

"Nice hotel. Easy on-off access to I-80."
Very nice facility. Squeaky-clean windows and doors upon entering told us that this must be an American owned and operated hotel and the entire rest of the facility did not disappoint. Winner of Chairman's award. Unexpectedly nice for a Days Inn. Nice complimentary breakfast in the morning. If all Days Inns were like this their overall corporate image […] would be a lot more positive and one would not have to think twice about booking a room in one of their hotels. We would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to our friends and business associates. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Would stay again!"
Room was VERY clean, one of the cleanest rooms we have stayed in for a while. Swimming pool was a little too cold and chlorine was very strong in the pool as our eyes burned. A few more choices for breakfast would be nice.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"One of our worst nights sleep"
The bed was SO UNCOMFORTABLE. The bottom sheet and mattress pad kept slipping off the corners at the head of the bed. Horrible night's rest!! Reported it to the desk clerk. Someone else we met in the breakfast nook reported the same occurrence. Won't stay there again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
The stay was nice. Beds are VERY comfortable. Room was clean. It was out pit stop driving from MKE to Rapid City. Breakfast could have had more selections especially for teens. We ended up eating on the road.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Pool needs more flexability."
We were in town to visit relatives...relatives joined us at the hotel and wanted to swim...but we could only get 2 more swim passes for our room. We were the only ones in the pool. This rule was not useful....we only needed 2 more passes but couldn't get them. This rule needs to be changed. We were more than willing to pay for them.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Decent Hotel"
Decent hotel. Rooms and furnishings are a bit worn and could use some updating. The room we were in had a sagging spot in the floor as well. Overall not a bad place and has a very nice pool area. Some renovation would help this hotel considerably though.Genuine Expedia guest review
"good for one night"
clean, good serviceGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"very old"
I wasn't very happy about our stay. First, the beds feel like they are 20 years old plus. There was absolutely no support in either bed. My spouse and I kept rolling into one another in the center of the bed. Secondly, the air conditioning. This isn't even the hottest time of the year, and we couldn't get the room too cool down! The room was always […] stuffy. Lastly, the breakfast. We were downstairs by 7am. It was perfect timing - or was it? By 7 am, we shouldn't have to be running after staff because there is no OJ left in the machine and no milk for cereal. When my husband tracked someone down for milk, the attendant reached into the refrigerator and poured enough milk in the milk cannister for a bowl of cereal only. We didn't bother about OJ, and opted for apple juice instead. Sugar water... it tasted like sugar water. You have the potential to have a great with your water feature. You need to improve the hotel and charge more if necessary. Don't use your water feature as an excuse to let everything else go to ruin. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice place to stay while visiting family"
Owners were very nice and helpful, rooms were very clean and well kept.Genuine Expedia guest review
"OK but needs improvements!"
When we arrived and wanted to check in we waited at least 15 to 20 minutes and no one came so we rang the bell,we heard a flush of the toilet and then finally someone came to check us in. She explained everything well but we were surprised at the FEE to take our grandchildren swimming!! I understand that it is not a public swimming pool but we have […] never been charged before at any other motels!! Your waterslide and pool is NOT that spectacular to charge a fee for a few xtra people who are with the guests who paid to stay there! Unless you really love your carbohydrates, your breakfast really did not impress me. We were told that the exit door we would be using was tricky and she was right, during the freezing and windy weather we had to fight this door to open!! If you know it is broke, please fix it! And finally we really didn't appreciate the fact that our room was NEVER cleaned, beds were not made, coffee & etc, was not restocked when we left during the day during our stay there!

"just ok, not great.."
Several items need painting and redoing in the hotel. All of the doors were full of screw holes and just looked run down. Towels were cheap and two different colors????

"Mitchell, SD hotel"
We stayed here for a night during a cross-country drive. The only bummer was that the big water slide was only open at night. When I checked in, she gave me the pool hours, but didn't specify that that slide was only open from 5-10pm. We chose to wait to swim until the morning, so my kids were disappointed when the slide was closed. Otherwise a good […] place to stay that's close to the highway and many restaurants.

"Quick overnighter"
The hotel was great for our purpose - a quick overnight stay before continuing on to Spearfish the next day. Even though we had a late check-in, close to midnight, we got service at the front desk quickly. The rooms were in decent condition, although ours smelled heavily of cigarette smoke. The room was very quiet which was nice.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Wonderful waterpark"
My daughter loved the various pools. At 2 1/2, she's fearless so she had no problem going between the 2 pools - the kiddie with a small slide and the adult with the 150' waterslide. We went down the waterslide 3 times, but she could have gone down 300 times if I let her. It was a good respite during our road trip to Rapid City.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The Sarasota County Sheriff's Office announced this afternoon it has identified a suspect in a string of home invasions in Sarasota and Manatee counties.
Delmer Smith III, 38, was arrested Sept. 10 on a federal warrant for a violation of probation after a bar fight in Venice, and he was subsequently linked to four home invasions:
Feb. 22 at 3534 Osage Terrace
March 7 at 1946 Bougainvillea Street
March 14 at 5240 Carmilfra Way
May 26 at 20 Whispering Sands Drive
During its investigation, Venice police discovered a cache of electronics in his home and notified the sheriff's office. Sheriff's investigators discovered that some of the electronics were stolen during two home invasions — Bougainvillea Street and Carmilfra Way.
Sheriff Tom Knight said DNA collected at all four locations matched Smith's DNA.
He's been charged with four counts of home invasion robbery, five counts of false imprisonment and two counts of sexual battery.
Knight said Smith is a prime suspect in other unsolved home invasions' including one in the East County.
The East County incident occurred March 31 on State Road 70 East. In that case, a 70-year-old woman was attacked at her front door. The suspect pistol-whipped the woman and stole her purse.
"(Smith)'s definitely the best suspect we have now," Manatee County Sheriff's Office Public Information Officer Dave Bristow said.
Manatee detectives also are looking for a possible links between Smith and the slaying of Terra Ceia resident Kathleen Briles on Aug. 3.
Smith was formerly held in federal prison in Michigan on a bank robbery conviction. He was released in late 2008.
He became a suspect for a string of burglaries in the Venice area after getting in a bar fight. Upon further investigation, Venice law enforcement found a federal warrant accusing Smith of violating his probation on the 1995 bank robbery conviction and arrested him Sept. 11.
Searches of Smith's home revealed items, such as laptop computers, that were identified as stolen by investigators. A DNA match later linked him to the Sarasota home invasions.
Smith is being held in Pinellas County on four counts of armed home invasion, five counts of false imprisonment and two counts of sexual battery and aggravated battery.
Anyone with information about Smith is asked to call the sheriff's office at 861-4900 or leave an anonymous tip with Crimestoppers at 366-TIPS (8477).

Can Sunderland's resurgence continue?
Jordan Florit | August 15, 20122011/12 Campaign (13th in Premier League)
A 10th place finish the season before last was an improvement for Sunderland: it marked the third successive season that The Black Cats had climbed up the Premier League end of season standings, having finished 13th in the 2009/10 campaign and 16th the season before.
With their Premier League status well and truly consolidated and going into their fifth consecutive season in the English top flight with a whole host of new signings, a top half finish was expected and when, thirteen games into the season, Sunderland were within two points of the relegation zone, former Sunderland defender Michael Gray told BBC Radio 5 Live that "everybody's expectations were for the top 10 this season and we are nowhere near that."
However, considering that Sunderland had lost Darren Bent, Danny Welbeck and Asamoah Gyan up front, as well as the continued injury-inflicted absence of Frazier Campbell, and furthermore, Jordan Henderson departing for Liverpool having had a barnstorming second season in the first team, contributing with three goals, five assists and appearing in 13 clean sheet results, it wasn't surprising that Martin O'Neill's appointment, as resurgent as it was, could only secure a 13th place finish.
Steve Bruce's return, before he was fired, was simply not good enough: his win ratio had become pitiful, averaging at 30% over his entire Sunderland stint, but dropping severely to just half of that figure at 15% for the 2011/12 season, with just two wins in Sunderland's first 13 games. Falling within two points of the relegation zone was enough for Ellis Short, club owner and chairman, to change the manager at The Stadium of Light and Steve Bruce was sacked having lost to the club he left Sunderland for just over two years ago: Wigan Athletic.
It was the synergy of the Northern Irish Martin O'Neill and his compatriot James McClean that instigated Sunderland's turnaround in fortunes. For The Mackems, the goal between January and the end of the season should have been to maintain their then position of 8th. The previous year should have served as a lesson: at the end of January 2011 The Black Cats were 6th and slipped to 10th by the end of the season, following the departure of Darren Bent. Unfortunately, Martin O'Neill couldn't capitalise on breaking in to the top ten and satisfy those beginning of the season expectations that looked dead before he entered the building.
On a transfer front Sunderland have thus far been almost mute: signing Carlos Cuellar, which reunites the Spaniard with the man who brought him to the Premier League – O'Neill, was like an infant giving up it's dummy; tabling several bids for Wolves' 25-year old Scottish striker was an attempt to utter their first words (of intent); approaching their first Premier League game with nothing but a free transfer to their name is perhaps indicative of imminent speech therapy being needed. Yet this infant still comes across as bashful with the ability to cause some serious damage to the bigger boys in the playground this year.
Their preseason results have done little to inspire Mackem fans, either: their first four preseason friendlies reaped just one victory and three goals – they all came in that once victory, too. The other three games ended in defeat. Although preseason results are meaningless, they have indicated areas that deserve attention and warrant improvement – the unsuccessful attempt to secure the services of Fletcher illustrates this. O'Neill remains unfazed, however: "I've been involved in preseasons where we have won every game and then struggled when the league started, and I've seen pre-seasons where we couldn't win a match and then did well when the season got under way."
Their two friendlies since that point, against Championship duo Derby and Leicester, read no better. Derby equalised in the last moments to cancel out James McClean's opener and Leicester defeated O'Neill's side 1-0. It leaves Sunderland with one win in their six preseason friendlies, and just four goals scored. Worryingly, 4 games were goalless from Sunderland's point of view – that's 66% of games Sunderland failed to score in. Last season they failed to score in just 34%. If the loss of Nicklas Bendtner as he returned to Arsenal after his loan wasn't enough to encourage Sunderland to buy a striker, that stat is. They currently have Frazier Campbell, Connor Wickham and Dong-won Ji. They scored just five goals between them last season.
Despite failing to create any real fervour in their preseason campaign, Sunderland do have the ability to achieve a top ten finish. Martin O'Neill is undoubtedly a large factor in this, currently, rather bold looking statement. When at Aston Villa, the Northern Irish manager finished 11th in his first season in charge and then recorded three consecutive 6th place finishes. As the season past was already 13 games long when O'Neill took charge of Sunderland it is unfair to compare his debut season with The Mackems to that of Villa: however, if you extrapolate O'Neill's win ratio (he won 9 games in 25) over the course of 38 games, he could have potentially bettered an 11th place finish with Sunderland.
All this gives weight to the prediction of Sunderland having the potential to break into the top ten: or in other words, what Sunderland expected to achieve last season – with Steve Bruce, also. Any higher seems incredibly unlikely and a repeat of a top seven finish, like those O'Neill secured with Aston Villa, are some way off at current. The likes of Liverpool, Newcastle and Everton seem too strong for Sunderland to compete with over the course of a season and a 9th place finish seems an appropriate prediction for The Mackems.
Prediction: 9th.

Drum Castle is deeply rooted in Scottish history. In 1323 the castle was granted to William de Irwyn by King Robert the Bruce. The castle remained within the Irvine family until 1975, when it was handed over to the National trust of Scotland. Irvine memorabilia is shown in the Family Room and the house contains an excellent collection of portraits and good Georgian furniture.
The High Hall of the castle tower is still in its medieval state which is accessed by a narrow newel stair offering fine views from the battlements. The original house was enlarged with the creation of a very fine Jacobean mansion house in 1619 and a later addition during the reign of Queen Victoria.
It is a welcoming castle with the feeling of a family home, enhanced by the recent creation of the Day and Night Nurseries. The grounds contain the Old Wood of Drum ancient oak woodland with Site of Special Scientific Interest designation mixed woodlands, three way-marked walks and an arboretum. Within the old walled garden is a fine collection of historic roses.
The chapel, dining hall and estate may be hired for weddings and corporate functions. There is also a small shop and tearoom within the castle.

Mayo Clinic foot and ankle specialists in the Department of Orthopedic Surgery work with an integrated team to ensure that each patient receives individualized ankle surgery and treatment. The integrated team may include specialists from rheumatology, physical medicine and rehabilitation and other departments, who collaborate to find the most appropriate treatment for each patient.
The experienced physicians at Mayo offer high-quality orthopedic care for more than 70,000 patients each year. Physicians and researchers have access to the most current technology and treatment options for ankle and other orthopedic conditions. For many years, surgeons at Mayo Clinic have performed complex ankle surgeries to treat ankle conditions, such as ankle fusions and ankle replacements.
Many types of ankle surgery and treatment options are available at Mayo Clinic, depending on the age and activity level of the patient and the cause and severity of the condition. A foot and ankle specialist conducts a comprehensive evaluation to determine which type of ankle surgery is most appropriate for the patient. Treatment options include, but are not limited to, debridement, ankle fusion or ankle replacement.
To relieve the pain of mild osteoarthritis, Mayo surgeons may recommend debridement, a minimally invasive surgical procedure that involves cleaning up the cartilage around the ankle joint. Surgeons use an arthroscope, an instrument that permits small incisions, and insert a small camera to see the joint. Special surgical tools are used to remove damaged parts of the joint, loose pieces of cartilage and bone around the joint.
Ankle fusion is often recommended for people with severe ankle misalignment, osteoarthritis, an inability to move the foot due to a neurological lesion or a history of infection or dead bone. Ankle fusion generally is suitable for patients who are younger than 30 and wish to participate in high-impact physical activities. It also may be an option for larger patients. Ankle fusion usually allows patients to walk without a limp and without pain. Read more about ankle fusion surgery.
Ankle replacement surgery is often appropriate for patients who avoid high-impact activities, such as skiing, basketball and football. Ankle replacement may be better suited for people with near-normal alignment of the ankle, no history of infection in the ankle joint, and no dead bone (avascular necrosis). Most patients who have ankle replacement surgery have osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis or arthritis caused by a prior trauma, such as a broken ankle. Read more about ankle replacement surgery.
Each ankle supports a force about five times a person's body weight during walking. Normally, cartilage in the ankle joint cushions the bones, so walking is painless. When the cartilage is destroyed or seriously damaged by arthritis or an injury, however, the pain can be debilitating. Patients may need ankle surgery to treat their injury or condition. Surgical options include ankle fusion surgery, ankle replacement surgery or debridement.

Most of us have been witness to the unprecedented development of internet and how it evolved from the traditional Web 1.0, which was a one-dimensional communication, which involves just the simple collection of data from the internet. Nowadays, we talk of the Web 2.0, which is the latest development in the World Wide Web, and is basically used to refer to the new World Wide Web. The Web 2.0 is highly interactive and allows users to participate in the communication, allowing the creation of virtual communities, whose members share their ideas and opinions with each other.
With all these fuss about the brisk development in technology, we are sometimes left groping for the best web hosting company which can help us in our online undertaking—a company which would not compromise the integrity and security of our data—while at the same time giving us the perks and privileges which are due to customers, who are the backbones of every company. You can make a cursory look or you can make a thorough study of all these companies, and you may tire yourself in the process. But in the end, there is the consolation that you might discover the particularly distinctive company to which you are going to subscribe.
One remarkable company, which offers a lot of perks for their beloved customers, is the HostGator. This company boasts of a commendable evolutionary development since 2002. For instance, let's take a look at the major draw of this company which is basically the very best HostGator coupon code. HostGator floods its customers with a lot of coupon codes which they could readily use to avail of the different discounts indicated in those coupons. Let me give you a little backgrounder on these different HostGator coupon codes, which may help elucidate why HostGator has been continuously gaining a lot of adherents and customers.
- The most common HostGator coupon is the one which you will immediately find right after you have chosen the plan and billing cycle for your initial order. A coupon code will readily be accessible to you and usually this coupon code entails a 20% discount off your total initial order. This may apply for services such as Shared hosting, Reseller hosting, Dedicated hosting, and VPS hosting.
- Another HostGator's perk which you can take advantage of is the alternate coupons which amount to $9.94 discount. You can use these coupons on your initial order.
- There are also other coupons which are seasonal in nature, such as the Black Friday coupon, which can be used on Friday succeeding the Thanksgiving. This can also be used for your initial order. Likewise, there is the Cyber Monday coupon which allows you to have a discount on the Monday after the Day of Thanksgiving.
- Another remarkable HostGator coupon code is the SEO hosting coupon, which permits you to have a discount of $35 for your initial purchase. This perk enable you to save a lot from your hard-earned money considering the fact that if your initial order is just $35, you just have to pay a penny for the minimum charge of signing up.
All these perks and privileges make the HostGator, the ideal web hosting company for most customers around the world.

Don't blame device, blame BluetoothPros: see other Cons: see other Other Thoughts: Not being able to use a Bluetooth(BT) device during an IBM/Microsoft ISA BIOS boot process is normal, expected behavior. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Good, but minor issuesPros: It's light, but well built and feels solid .It runs on two AAA batteries and has an off switch on the bottom to conserve battery life. Cons: The keyboard goes into a 'sleep mode' after sitting idle for several minutes. It can take anywhere from 10 to 20 seconds to wakeup, which is most annoying. Other Thoughts: The F11 and F12 keys are only available by holding the 'fn' key, then tapping F9 or F10 respectively. The pageup, pagedown, home and end keys work the same way, using the 'fn' key and navigation arrow keys. This functionality isn't a problem for me, but might be aggravating for some, depending on your use for the keyboard. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
so soPros: Good compact size. Trackball mouse. Cons: Keeps dropping connection. Everytime you close the lid on the laptop, you have to do the connection process from scratch: delete old blutooth item then add it again. Misses the point of wireless if you have to manually do it. 1 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Nice little keyboard however with a big ProblemPros: small size making it nice for an HTPC application. Cons: Will not function during the boot process of your OS so you will not be able to log into your system, You will need to have a real keyboard to do that with! With respect to Jamie's comments about the keyboard not being able to function during the boot process. IT IS THE FAULT OF THE KEYBOARD! I have a Logitech keyboard and mouse and they both function during the boot process and they are both bluetooth! Other Thoughts: I am sorry but I do not need to have two keyboards to use my PC a real one and this partly functional one that is very expensive. So in my opinion it is redundant and not worth the money and will be returned today! 1 out of 5 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Pleasantly suprisedPros: Excellent product. I manufactured computer accessories and them at retail for 9 years. This is a great product. Includes USB bluetooth adapter in the box and a nice little cover for the keyboard. Nice touches.. Plugged everything in, paired the device and everything worked like a champ and as expected. Cons: It would be great if the keyboard was backlit... since I am a touch typer this isn't as big of a deal for me... but it woud be nice. Since the ' key is in an alternate place. Other Thoughts: I'd buy it again for my PC connected to my TV. This was all written with the keyboard and it is doing a great job. 8 out of 8 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
great little, not so "solid" KBPros: SIZE: if you are looking for a tiny KB, this is it. Cons: BODY: cheap shell detracts from the over-all experience. Other Thoughts: This is a great little keyboard for its purpose. Using it as a Mythbuntu remote control. 6 out of 6 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
tiny keyboardPros: it is very tiny and works good with both my laptop and newly built mediaPC. it pairs well with the Kingwin KBT-150M. Cons: goes through batteries quick Other Thoughts: i bought this because i thought a small keyboard would be good for a mediaPC. so far it has met my expectations 3 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Nice ProductPros: I needed a wireless keyboard/mouse combo for my HTPC. It is connected to my LCD monitor and a 47" LCD TV. This wireless combo allows me to configure things, browse the internet, read mail, etc from my couch. Cons: Touchpad and keys are small, but of course this is intended. The touchpad is very sensitive. It makes navigation difficult. Other Thoughts: Great product for people with HTPC, although don't rely on this to be the primary keyboard and mouse. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Moderately happyPros: Bluetooth, compact size for HTPC Cons: Needs "on" light so you don't forget to switch it off when done; uses regular batteries which could get expensive - others have recharging dock stations; build quality is suspect and feels like a FAR keyboard - sorry but for $80 I'd like to have some substance to it; mouse pad is small with hard to hit left/right buttons, and mouse jumps during use - you'll be able to do what you want on the screen, but it's not a smooth operation like on a laptop or wired mouse pad. Other Thoughts: I would personally look elsewhere or spend some extra money for the logitech. This keyboard just isn't worth it for $80, but the idea is right for a small HTPC system Did you find this review helpful? |
great idea, but...Pros: Very compact - simple to set up in both Linux and Windows. Cons: Touchpad utilities are not included on the driver CD and a web search doesn't bring up anything. I do know that under Linux Synaptics utilities won't work and under Windows I have a set of Alps Glidepoint utilities I'm getting ready to test. Solidtek's website currently doesn't list the product or have any place I can find to download drivers. Without touchpad utilities it's not possible to adjust trackpad sensitivity (I think it's a little too sensitive) or do any advanced trackpad stuff. It's not a dealbreaker for me but is something to be aware of. Other Thoughts: Great little keyboard if I can get the touchpad configured. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

This is a series of scripts that implement various layer effects:
Some effects can have contours (a.k.a. curves) and noise added to them. Effects can either be applied on a separate layer, or be merged into the active layer (which in some cases gives better results).
Tested with GIMP 2.4.2.

Hi all
a german description for Windoof can you find under:
loves from Germany
Many can appreciate this script/plug-in, myself included, but is there a way to add anti-alias option to the various layer styles?
I was wondering if anyone else had trouble with the color of the overlays. Specifically, all of the overlays I've used have been desaturated. I don't know if I'm missing a selection, but I've trued changing all the settings I could find. If anyone has any suggestions, they would be greatly received.
Ubuntu 10.0.4 Lucid
Gimp v2.7.1
Installed Gimp 2.7 - http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/12047/install-gimp-2.7.1-on-lucid-lynx-us...
Added layerfx.py to Gimp plugin folder with (right click) Permissions => 'Allow executing file as program' can now find it in the Layers menu.
However trying to use any of the effects results in errors in the gimp console, or if you ignore the errors most of the effect don't work.
GIMP Warning
WARNING: Plug-In "layerfx.py"
called deprecated procedure 'gimp-drawable-parasite-list'.
It should call 'gimp-item-parasite-list' instead!
/*======*/ Update...
Ubuntu 10.0.4 Lucid
Gimp v2.7.1
I've just compiled Gimp 2.7 so I can run 2.6.x and 2.7.x. Just tried layerfx in 2.7.x and works perfectly. So something must be wrong in the link of the ppa version above.
Ubuntu 10.0.4
Gimp 2.6.11
Still works! :)
Windows 7 x64
Gimp 2.7.1
After I got this installed (installing python and various other addons) everytime I tried to run layerfx it crashed Gimp.
Windows 7 x64
Gimp 2.6.11
Still works!
For Ubuntu I'm not sure if this is a compile difference 2.7.x and 2.6.x which is why it doesn't play nice with 2.7.x. Hopefully someone will get this awesome time saving script updated just a shame it can't be added to Gimp forever!
I think, you tried to use ".py" file, and it doesn't works. Try to download the ".scm" file and paste into the "scripts" folder.
You'll find the layer effects in the menu "Script-Fu"
The description says, that Script-Fu version is basically for windows, but it's not. Works fine under Linux.
I hope it helps.
Not sure what 2.7.x you are using
in the most recent from Git you will see that NONE of the third party plugin would work,
and even the plugin included (bundled)in gimp 2.6 will never work if transferred on 2.7 and vice versa.
not sure if is the same for py scripts but from the error messages you posted seems so.
not even sure if will be worth adapt the script to 2.7 because more changes are still possibles, changes that may break again the script
Recently installed Python (Windows) GIMP and going back and looking for some cool Python plugins. Excellent by the way. Thanks for sharing. :)
I am a newbie in Linux. you said:
If you're on a UNIX system, make sure layerfx.py is executable by typing this in the shell:
chmod +x layerfx.py
my question is, what is shell? where can I find it? thanx :-)
= terminal
the thingy you type command in
Thanks for an incredibly useful plugin. Now that I've compiled and installed Gimp from GIT, and seen the new features there, I have some suggesitons:
- Add an option for grouping effects with the current layer (layer groups). This will make it easier to work with many effects and layers.
- The gradient settings don't work. For example gradient strokes.
Would that be possible?

Here we go fresh new hour Fox News alert now a new showdown shaping up in Washington after a difficult.
In sometimes politically bloody battle over the fiscal cliff.
The White House now as plans for -- more controversial issue that being immigration.
-- -- sticky points on this -- brand new hour starts right now on America's Newsroom and I'm Bill Hemmer good morning here Martha's.
How you doing another nice to be there and you feels like Friday for some reason.
We can think yeah.
-- lines and absolutely right again I'm Heather Childers -- for Martha MacCallum now the administration.
Has already butted heads with congress on this in June the president infuriated lawmakers actually by issuing an executive order.
Allowing certain young illegal immigrants to stay in the country.
But this time the White House believes congress will be more likely to play ball in light the other difficult battles ahead.
Including of course raising the debt ceiling and resolving delayed spending cuts chief White House correspondent Ed Henry joins us now.
The White House so Ed how quickly do we think the president will move on this.
Well good morning Heather we think quick enough that'll be in the next few weeks because.
He knows full well that -- reelected president can become a lame duck president.
Pretty quickly and so -- as you mention all those battles that are brewing here in Washington they know that they've got to get going quickly so we expect.
In the weeks ahead right after the inaugural they're going to be moving forward on some sort of immigration reform legislation remember.
The reason why the president they see as the head of steam on this is that in the reelection battle.
He had the Latino vote won by an overwhelming margin over Republican Mitt Romney and remember he made this pledge.
Just a week after getting reelected in his first news conference -- So we need to seize the moment and my expectation is that we get a bill.
And we begin the process.
In congress.
Very soon after my inauguration.
And in fact some conversations I think are already beginning to take place among senators and congressmen and my staff about.
What would this look like.
-- -- remember though we've heard this from this president before back in the 2008 campaign he pledged.
To get immigration reform done not by the end of his first term but by the end of -- first year in office.
That obviously did not happen but the White House privately believe they've got a much different political climate now they think they have a better shot at getting this done him.
And and as you just said -- it we've all heard the phrase day -- -- all over again.
And did they think that is the -- they just mentioned this time around to making -- different.
Well -- the difference when you talk to senior administration officials in private is that they know they're gonna have to have some Republican by and if they're gonna really make this a bipartisan effort -- so there's some key elements to a deal.
That they talk about one would of course be.
Coming up with provisions in here that have stronger border security.
That is key for Republican by and also.
Penalties for companies that purposely hire undocumented workers they're also talking about a pathway for legal status.
But only after people who are here illegally paid back taxes and possible fines.
Also learning English -- key to getting a deal as well you mentioned.
The DREAM Act there had been some bipartisan efforts on Capitol Hill to try and move forward on that Republican Marco Rubio and others working on that and they were frustrated that the president few months ago move forward.
There's hopes now that may be they'll go a different route and and work together on this him.
And -- reporting live horse in the White House thank you -- the.

Paschal honors longtime educator who started college test course
Paschal names library for longtime educator who started college test course
FORT WORTH -- Paschal High School's 10-day summer college test preparation course may have the reputation of an academic boot camp, but it has evolved into a coveted spot for students from Fort Worth and beyond.
Veteran Paschal employee John R. Hamilton started the course nearly three decades ago in an effort to help students perform better on college entrance exams so they could earn scholarships and recognition from the National Merit program. The course has grown from a few dozen students in 1985 to nearly 1,000 from Fort Worth and beyond each year.
Paschal, an academic powerhouse, had 19 National Merit semifinalists for 2012-13, the most of any private or public school in Fort Worth. National Merit semifinalists rank among the top 1 percent of high school seniors nationwide.
The school recently named its library in honor of Hamilton, who is in his 51st year at the campus.
"We knew we had lots of smart kids, but we had relatively few scholars in the public schools. The whole point was for me to set out to change that by working on advanced academics," Hamilton said. "You can't just magically turn a bunch of students into better students. There's nothing easy about any if it. It's still a matter every year of trying to convince kids to take as much advantage of advanced courses."
Former students and colleagues gathered in the campus theater for the library dedication.
"What was really neat is that the alumni from classes he taught in the '80s and '90s talked about how he had changed their lives and that he pushed them to study more and to take advanced classes," said Jan Hull, president of the Paschal Alumni Association.
Hamilton, a former math teacher, became the district's first academic coordinator in 1983 after he proposed starting the position at Paschal to improve academic quality. Now, all Fort Worth schools have academic coordinators.
In the 1980s, Hamilton was the only calculus teacher at Paschal, which currently has six. Paschal offers college-level Advanced Placement courses in 30 subjects, and about two-thirds of the student body -- nearly 1,800 students -- is enrolled in honors or Advanced Placement courses.
The school's first National Merit semifinalist was named in 1987, based on scores on the 1986 Preliminary SAT test.
Although Hamilton retired in 2006-07, he still works part time under the title of academic coordinator emeritus, crunching data, working with teachers and performing other tasks.
The summer test preparation course, in which students can enroll every summer after completing the eighth grade, helps boost the average student test score by 100 points, said Barbara Ozuna, who was hired as the academic coordinator when Hamilton retired. Ozuna was Hamilton's student when she attended Paschal in the mid-1980s. The course draws about half its students, who pay $150 per summer to enroll, from the Fort Worth school district.
"We've got people who've got relatives from other states who come and do their vacations here so they can take our class," Ozuna said.

This small restaurant is in a strange location- behind the moviehouse ticket counter at the top floor of the mall.
