Bought the waterproof trousers for an outward bounds trip. It was a very wet day and the trousers did their job. I put them on top of my leggings and my legs were kept warm and dry all day long. The buttons and zip up the side meant that I could easily remove them without having to remove my walking boots first. Elasticated waist for comfort so no zips or buttons to fasten. I am 5ft 4 and did find that the trousers trailed along the ground (they got covered in mud) so were slightly on the long side considering they are a short. I washed them in the washing machine. Dried very quickly both when I was wearing them and after washing them.

these are brilliant, wearing them over top of warm trousers, snowing day, working outside, was soaked but the trousers underneath were still bone dry. Bought these for male and female and will leave same comment against the womens toruser as we were both wearing them . I have bought 2 pairs now.

Started looking for this product in the summer, so pleased that have been able to purchase it before our country walks start this winter. Just the thing to go with our isodry jackets to keep the bad weather at bay.

Bought the trousers for £29.99. I haven't actually used them so far but they are lightweight and easy to put on over walking boots. Praying I won't need them much this autumn - we'll see
21/03/2013 09:37:02
Returned because them did not fit. However I was able to buy other goods - shirts etc to the the same value and I am very satisfied with products and service across two visits.

Wears well . They have them in sizes and not just small medium or large .not had any problems with water getting through and sturdy enough to copy with dogs jumping up a lot.
17/03/2013 11:21:25
Very comfortable to wear. I need these trousers to wear when I go to my dog shows in the summer when it pours down. At least I will not get soaked to the skin any longer.
11/08/2013 12:26:00
These fit really well and are very comfortable. I wore them for a full day out in the rain and stayed nice and dry underneath - and didn't make me feel hot and sweaty.
17/06/2013 11:28:32
I am very happy with my purchase, the fit is lovely andt are not too bulky as over trousers can sometimes be. So far holding up to the british summer weather!
26/09/2013 18:30:28
Slightly thicker and heavier than I expected so will take up more room in the suitcase but for use in the rain at home very good. Waist is a bit low.
29/09/2013 23:53:01
Looking forward to wearing these Can be worn on or out of my wellies Very roomy Great for wearing when talking the dog for a walk in bad weather
21/03/2013 06:47:04
Tried these on and they trailed inches past my feet. Even with boots on they were far too long. Not sure how they can be classed as a 'short' length.
13/05/2013 09:47:34
I haven't worn these outdoors yet, but they are comfortable and a good fit, just a little long in the leg which is my usual problem with trousers.
24/01/2013 13:44:33
Look good quality with side opening legs for easy access in boots. Great to get short length! I usually have to bunch the legs up on my boots.
21/01/2013 13:09:10
I like the full length zip making it easy to put these trousers on over jeans and walking boots. Have yet to try them in a heavy downpour.
07/06/2013 12:41:32
Bought this jacket in preparation for A Job working with horses, my first day it was pouring with rain, and these kept me warm and dry!
21/09/2013 19:00:39
The price was right and with the side zip these waterproof trousers will slip on easily over my boots without having to take them off.
11/04/2013 14:24:39
I haven't used these as yet but they fitted really well and as long as they do what they say they will do I will be very happy.
19/01/2013 15:10:06
Comfortable, light weight and good value at the discounted price. Hopefully waterproof - haven't been put to the test yet!
14/07/2013 14:56:45
Like the side opening and the fabric weight and it has a lining haven't tried in the wet but it seems well thought out.

Hello Newry and beyond, happy Thursday to you all. Last Thursday my youngest son, Benny turned three years old. We celebrated his birthday Friday, here at our house with friends and family. Benny's Grammie and Grandpa Brooke, Auntie Amber, Uncle Bryan and cousin Maya all came. Plus his Grammie and Pappa Corriveau, Great Aunt Judy, her daughter Amber, Auntie Bethany, Uncle Eli, cousins Jakob, Octavia and Eliza and our friends Melissa, Big Gavin, Little Gavin and Jaiden. We had a wonderful time, plenty of food and a good man tending the grill. I marinated pork ribs that came from last year's pig that we had raised ourselves and I butchered, so I was rather curious as to how they'd come out. Luckily there were no complaints only yummy noises. This was the first time since Freeman and I were married, which was eleven years ago, that we had both sides of our family together at the same time. Our party was a success so we plan to have many more this summer and hopefully my "hostess" skills will improve with practice.
The kids and I were driving past Farmer's the other day and noticed that there was fresh hay laying in nice neat rows in the field out behind the house. It was nice to see that Les was back in the saddle again. I ran into his daughter Amy, Saturday at a yard sale and talked for a minute. She told me that he had been out haying already, so soon after having his gall bladder removed. Patrick, Linda and her grandson, Logan, were all working in the field with Les to wrap the dried hay into round bales for the cows. I'll wager that he doesn't flinch much anymore at the sight of needles. What an amazing man!
Scott Berry and Doug dropped one of the large pine trees that sheltered the Bear River Trading Post. It must have been quite a sight, it was really tall and close to the road, the parking lot, gas pumps and the mailbox. The absence of the tree has left the parking area and store with a much airier open feel and a lot less pine needles to rake up. I wonder how many years it had stood there, maybe the kids and I will stop and try to count the rings. Turkey season closed June 5. The BRTP reported that they had 42 turkeys tagged there this 2010 season. Crow season starts Aug. 1; too bad that it didn't start a bit sooner. I've heard that hanging a dead crow in your garden keeps them away. It looks a bit grotesque, watching their lifeless bodies swinging in the breeze but its better than the alternatives. I myself don't practice this method but the crows around here are pretty fussy anyway. They seldom come around my corn patch, not even stopping to bother with my puny, diminutive four-inch ears. One should probably give up when year after year their corn only grows three feet tall but I don't. I keep hoping that with a little more loving care that maybe, just maybe I might luck out. But in the meantime I do get plenty of practice hilling. Besides, Norman grows some really nice corn so I usually skip down to buy some from him.
We braved the thunderstorms on Father's Day and spent a glorious wet and windy afternoon and evening swimming and catching fish, hand over fist. We took advantage of the free fishing day and were greatly rewarded. Everyone caught something, a chub, a couple pickerel and tons of yellow perch! We were slightly disappointed that the bass weren't hungry but it did save me from stinking up my kitchen
Anyway, that's all the news, that is news, that's fit to print. Keep me posted with your news and events so that our column doesn't dry up! Until next time, take a walk outside and enjoy the sights and sounds of this beautiful area that we are so blessed to live in! firstname.lastname@example.com or 824-0836

Don't Ignore Hitler
"Ignore Hitler" is a Tumblr featuring screengrabs from a guy who draws Hitler into his Draw Something drawings, then requests that his partner simply "ignore Hitler" when guessing the answer.
Yeah, ignoring Hitler is a bad idea. Just ask Poland, all of Europe, the Jews, etc.
Don't stay calm. Don't carry on. That's fucking Hitler eating a meatball and we all know it and we need to stop him before he's ruins Draw Something for everyone and we have to go back to playing Words With Friends like it's fucking 2011.

Best Uses
Comments about Womens On Cloudracer Running Shoe: I'm a huge fan of the On line, especially the CloudSurfer, so I figured I would try these out, too. They really are very comfortable to wear and very breathable (great in Florida), but they didn't have as much cushioning or as much side-to-side support as the CouldSurfer does. These would be great for race day or for someone who prefers a lighter, more minimalist shoe or if you're more of a forefoot strikes. I'm a midfoot, so they aren't quite right for me, but they are a good shoe worth trying.

News Shopper investigates financial meltdown of South London Healthcare NHS Trust
2:00pm Tuesday 26th June 2012 in Bexley
The financial crisis affecting our local hospitals reached its lowest ebb this week with the news that the trust is the first in the country to be faced with administration. ROBERT FISK, MARK CHANDLER and KELLY SMALE find out more.
SOUTH London Healthcare NHS Trust (SLHT) is set to be put in special measures as Health Secretary Andrew Lansley seeks to turn around its dire finances.
The trust, which runs the Princess Royal University Hospital in Farnborough, Queen Mary's Hospital in Sidcup and the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Woolwich, has been criticised over standards of care and has run up debts of more than £150 million over the past three years.
Its chief executive was informed last night (June 25) that the trust is likely to be put into the "unsustainable providers regime" introduced by the last Labour government but never before used.
Mr Lansley sent a letter as the first step in the legal process towards installing a special administrator using the powers.
If an administrator is installed they will take over the board and recommend measures to the health secretary to put the trust's finances on a sustainable basis.
The announcement about the threat of administration came less than a fortnight after SLHT announced its chief executive Dr Chris Streather is stepping down next month (July).
Emergency meeting
Jo Johnson MP held an emergency meeting with the health secretary on Monday night following the news about administration.
The trust, which has been losing £1m a week, is set to be the first in the country to be put under the control of a special administrator tasked with putting it on a viable footing.
Mr Johnson said: "It has been abundantly clear for some time that the trust structure is failing.
"Saddled with dud PFI contracts, SLHT has significant financial challenges, adding to a historic debt of £150 million at the rate of £1.3m each week.
"This is money straight out of the pockets of patients.
"History shows that trusts with weak finances eventually also underperform clinically and Health Secretary Andrew Lansley is right to head that off now before it happens with SLHT."
He added: "I had an urgent meeting with the health secretary and sought assurances that there would be no asset-stripping or any rushed attempt to balance the books."
"Sad inevitability"
OLD Bexley and Sidcup MP James Brokenshire said the announcement was "more of a sad inevitability than a surprise".
He said: "It's been clear for some time that the South London Healthcare Trust simply isn't sustainable and remains burdened with debts it can't repay.
"At its creation SLHT was saddled with onerous PFI contracts and a historic debt mountain inherited from its predecessor organisations."
He added: "Unsustainable finances risk leading to unsustainable services so it is right that the Health Secretary has taken firm action now rather than allowing the situation to drift."
"Trust has to be broken up"
BEXLEYHEATH and Crayford MP David Evennett said: "I welcome the action taken by the Secretary of State as this situation has gone on for far too long."
He added: "I think we now have a real opportunity to ensure that Queen Mary's Hospital has a viable and sustainable future, providing important services and treatments for Bexley patients.
"In order to achieve all this, the Trust has to be broken up."
"An uphill battle"
Bob Neill MP said: "This is yet another example of how taxpayers and patients continue to suffer from the mess bequeathed by the last Labour Government.
"It saddled South London Healthcare Trust with two botched PFI contacts, and the Trust has since faced an uphill battle trying to return a degree of financial stability to the local health economy.
"With standards of care still well below par, and debts continuing to rack up by over £1m every single week, the health secretary is absolutely right to intervene and find a long-term fix to these inherent problems."
The view from the unions
Senior organiser for the GMB union Rob Macey said hundreds of members have already called in with concerns about the possibility of staff cuts, the closure of services and facilities being hived off to the public sector.
He said: "The decision to call in administrators is nothing short of disgraceful.
"If the Trust is dissolved there will be devastating consequences for both patients and staff.
"It cannot be right that we have a Government that is prepared to bail out the banks but not our NHS."
And UNISON's regional organiser for the Trust, Carol Shorter, said "Since it's formation in 2009, this Trust has had a PFI millstone about its neck.
"Today, that millstone has finally weighed it down.
"Poor management of the 3 legacy Trusts prior to the merger has also played a part in today's picture."
She added: "PFI is no longer relevant or effective, and South London Healthcare Trust is proof that there should now be an end to the scheme.
"There needs to be a return to conventional procurement, which will ensure a more efficient, flexible and cost effective way of building public assets, such as hospitals."
"The staff at the Trust have worked tirelessly to turn things around, despite facing numerous reorganisations, which are still ongoing.
"They have woken today to startling news, but despite this, they will be at work caring for their patients and doing the jobs that they love; for them, it's business as usual."
Thoughts from campaigners
John Hemming-Clark, from Independents to Save Queen Mary's Hospital, said: "A hospital going bust is the sort of announcement we expect from a third-world country where some crackpot dictator has siphoned off all the foreign aid relief for his and his cohorts' personal gain, not what we expect to happen in this country where the dictator (i.e. South London Healthcare Trust) that is siphoning off a billion pounds of taxpayer's money, via a Private Finance Initiative contract, to the bankers and their cohorts over a 30 year period."
South London Healthcare Trust Patients' Council member Ron Brewster told News Shopper: "The ship sunk a little while ago.
"It is obviously going to affect patients.
"It's affected patients already at Queen Mary's.
"Queen Mary's is one of the things that has got to come out of that equation.
"Then they really have to look at Princes Royal and take a very close look at Queen Elizabeth and get their finances sorted out.
"Then you could say after a couple of years whether or not there has to be more drastic change.
"There's far too much red tape in the NHS."
Chairwoman of campaign group Keep Our NHS Public Frances Hook, who held a protest outside Queen Elizabeth Hospital this morning (June 26), said her group had been campaigning against the use of PFI to rebuild the hospitals since the 1990s.
She said: "We warned that this would be like a mortgage, we'd be paying far more back than it cost to build and it would eventually collapse."
"To put two PFI hospitals together was a disaster waiting to happen.
"The people of the three boroughs concerned were never really consulted on it.
"Even A Picture of Health went through regardless that the biggest percentage of respondents to that consultation didn't want any of it."
And health campaigner Julie Mott is worried what effect entering into the 'unknown' will have on patients.
Mrs Mott, of Red Cedars Road, Orpington, said: "I'm not sure administration will be the best solution.
"We are in no-man's land because this has never happened before with a health trust and I do not know what the consequences will be.
She said: "I think management change is needed and if the only way they can do that is administration then that's what it will have to be.
"Because we are in an unknown territory I do not know whether it will be a good thing or a bad thing.
"All I know is I don't want to see patients suffer for it and it does make you wonder whether this was in the offing because of Chris Streather's resignation."
Retired consultant orthopaedic surgeon Alfred Franklin is wondering what took the health secretary so long to take this action.
He believes the management has to be kicked out and the administrator has to be brought in.
Mr Franklin, of Cumberland Road, Bromley, said: "I think the mess there is horrendous.
"The people who run the trust for the last few years have not shown any degree of competence and have not shown the courage to walk away when it was revealed to be a disaster.
"The current management is reviled by the staff.
"There are lots of good people in the hospital that are doing a decent job in impossible circumstances.
"I'm sure getting out of the mess won't be easy but this situation cannot go on.
"It is a total mess and it puts at risk the health of about a million people in south east London.
"I retired last summer because they told me to go when I reached 65 and I said 'what makes you think I want to stay?'"
What the trust says
The Trust says services will continue as normal for patients while discussions are taking place with the health secretary.
A SLHT spokesman said: "Our staff have worked hard for patients and in spite of significant financial issues we are extremely proud we now have among the lowest mortality and infection rates in the country.
"We expect these discussions to come to a conclusion in the second week in July when a decision will be taken by the Secretary of State.
"In the meantime we can reassure local patients and the public our staff will continue to provide services as normal."

Queen Marys' was then deliberately run down by Streather the CEO of SLHT who denied it was due to asset stripping-which is the case after all. We should request our local MP Jim Brokenshire to fight for Queen Marys' Hospital particularly as Bexley is the only London Borough without an A&E.
Since the closure of QMH A&E the SLHT have had to pay millions of £'s to the Darenth Valley Hospital for the overspill; a little known fact which Streather keeps quiet about from his office within QMH with his beady eyes monitoring his 'success'.

They treat the ordinary man on the street like muppets. The tradegy is that we let them.
Time for Lansley's real intentions for the NHS to be realised. Privatisation. That is why debts were allowed to build up to the point where it was impossible to salvage the Trust from the administrators.

Somehow I doubt the likes of BUPA or BMI would have been naive or incompetent enough to have signed such a bad (PFI) deal.

They treat the ordinary man on the street like muppets. The tradegy is that we let them.
Time for Lansley's real intentions for the NHS to be realised. Privatisation. That is why debts were allowed to build up to the point where it was impossible to salvage the Trust from the administrators.
Somehow I doubt the likes of BUPA or BMI would have been naive or incompetent enough to have signed such a bad (PFI) deal.
All PFI deals are bad. Any involvement of a profit-making company in the NHS is only going to shortchange the taxpayer.
The goverment just want to wash their hands of any responsibility for the NHS. With private companies involved, they can pass the blame for anything that goes wrong onto someone else, rather than admit that problems are their fault. Plus they can get their friends all the big deals.
Lansley is a fat cat being paid off by the private companies. He thinks that the recession is a good thing as it allows people to spend more time with their families! Idiot.
The NHS exists to serve us, and it should belong to us!

The 'investment' gives some ridiculous return to the people lending it over a 30 year period so instead of public money, or tax payers money as it is, the tax payer is paying private business to profit from providing the health service. It si the privatisaion of the health service right under your noses while they blame the Trust. The Trust has basically provided care instead of putting money to the loan. The loan will give BILLIONS of pounds for an investment of millions. Everyone warned Blair this would happen.
How the trust was allowed to run up debts of £150 million is beyond me.Very sad news as it almost certainly means Queen Marys will close for good at some point.

PRUH could be a flagship hospital - wonderful staff and for the most part it exceeds ratings on cleanliness and cross infection control. Sadly its A & E cannot cope, full stop.
Where does the wastefulness go - check this. After my Mums op for a fractured leg she was sent home with some serious rehabilitation kit. Huge frame (when you aren't load bearing) and then a smaller walking frame plus crutches and a walking stick. You sign the sheet and say when you no longer require the equipment you phone a number and send it back. I call that recycling.
When I phoned the number (occupational therapy at PRUH) they said "Oh no, we don't take back walking aids of any sort". Simpleton me thought they might be thinking about a wooden stick or crutches. No they meant 'ALL WALKING AIDS'. I said so should I just take them to the local council dump and they said 'YES'.
They asked me to dump seriously expensive bits of kit. That's just a small part of the waste. No wonder why we are finding ourselves in this mess.
I couldn't bring myself to do that and instead found someone who could drop the stuff off to Social Services - I hope now it has found a deserving and needy home. There really are some serious problems with our NHS and they need fixing, sadly I don't see any one who can take control.

That is why the SLHT is paying mi££ions to the Darenth Valley Hospital to cope with the shortcomings - not only that, if there is a health crisis, whether it be an epedemic, superbug or major disaster then the inadequate provisions for patient care together with the destruction of facilities at QMH by Streather & SLHT, will the true extent of his nefarious dealings be highlighted.

Survey of Energy Resources 2007
Geothermal Country Notes
With the Government's positive attitude towards the utilisation of the country's low-enthalpy resource, there has been an increased usage during the first years of the 21st century, which is expected to continue. It is estimated that there is a sufficient resource to supply heat to several towns for hundreds of years.
There are presently two district heating plants in operation. The first, at Thisted (northern Jutland) began operating in 1984. In 1988 it was enlarged to 4 MWt and again to 7 MWt in 2000-2001. The second, a 14 MWt plant at Margretheholm, Copenhagen, started operating in 2004.
Additionally, approximately 250 groundwater-based heat pumps and 43 000 other types of pump (about 10%-20% of which are vertical closed-loop), totalling 309 MWt , are in operation.
DONG, the Danish energy company, working in conjunction with the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS), has in recent years carried out a re-evaluation of the country's geothermal potential.
With a view to the installation of further district heating plants and geothermal water production, DONG is currently in discussions with potential clients on a co-ownership basis (there is no public funding available for geothermal projects).

While you were glued to your flat screen, with your eyeballs popping out every time the ball was hit for a six, in a dark corner of India – in a Haryana village very close to the national capital – a dog was barking. Since it was a Dalit dog (in India, even dogs have caste), the upper caste Jaats were getting all riled up. So they decided to teach the dog a lesson. A bunch of them surrounded a Dalit house and set it on fire. Inside the house were trapped an 18-year-old girl and her old father. Since the girl was physically challenged and could not move out of the burning house, she and her father were engulfed and consumed by the fire. This is how people teach a lesson to dogs in New India: by making the poor, lower castes die like dogs.
Even as you were glued to TV, watching the IPL drama – both on the field and off field – a few more things happened. Highly dangerous radioactive material affected several people in a scrap market of Delhi; more than 100 people died in the cow-belt areas as mercury touched 43 degree mark; more people died of hunger and starvation across the country; new figures revealed that the number of poor in India stands at 800 million and not 327 million as claimed by the government; and it was reported that the government was tapping the phones of important political leaders. It may also be tapping the phones of ordinary citizens.

I took a babysitting course and I'll be babysitting my little cousin. But I'm afraid he will be sad and start screaming as soon as his parents walk out the door. What should I do if this happens? - Rosario*
Young kids can get something called separation anxiety when a parent leaves. This usually doesn't happen until a child is at least 6 months old and it can last until the child is around 2 years old. Separation anxiety happens because kids worry that a parent who is leaving might not come back.
Separation anxiety is a normal stage in a child's learning and development. It shows the child is advancing enough to grasp that mom or dad has gone away. But since little kids don't have a good concept of time, they don't understand if or when mommy or daddy will come back.
A child's worry at this stage is all about the person who is leaving, not the person who will be looking after them. So it's not a reflection on your skills as a babysitter. Still, it can be upsetting for a new babysitter to have a child start crying right away. The good news is, separation anxiety usually passes after a few minutes. Once you've been babysitting for a while, you will get used to it.
Here's what to do: If your cousin cries, soothe him for a minute after his parents leave. Then, even if he's still crying, try to distract him with an activity, toy, songs, games, or anything else that's fun. You may have to keep trying until something just clicks with the child.
Try not to mention mommy or daddy to your cousin, but do answer any questions about his parents in a simple and straightforward way. So if he asks, you might say: "Daddy [or Mommy] is going to be back as soon as he [she] is done running errands. Let's play with some toys!"
Of course, kids might not cry at all when their parents leave, especially if they're with someone who's been babysitting them regularly. It all depends on the age of the child and what kind of mood he or she is in at the time. A kid who is tired or hungry may be more likely to cry than a child who isn't.

Not awake this week. Dunno why, but I've need extra dosings of caffeine to get going.
Possibly it's due to just not being as swamped as last week, possibly it's just the phase of the moon, or my lazy nature grabbing hold again. Whatever, but it leaves me muddle headed and klutzy. I'm tired of walking into things the past 2 days.

Cold Feet star James Nesbitt's Ireland adventure continues on ITV. This week James Nesbitt goes in search of the flavours and scents that define the magic of Ireland
Once I caught a fish this big…
The Hobbit star James Nesbitt is on a mission to taste and smell the flavours of Ireland. From the crystal clear waters of the Dingle coast to the bustling streets of Dublin, James Nesbitt is in for a treat.
In County Kerry, local Dingle man Ryan Coote is an expert at the traditional art of spear fishing. The clear waters of the Atlantic are home to many flourishing fish species, supplying the restaurant plates of Dingle town with delicious, fresh seafood. Ryan teaches James Nesbitt a thing or two about spear fishing. Does Nesbitt manage to spear his own dinner or does he go hungry? Wait and see.
Foodie Revolution
On the streets of Ireland's capital Dublin, a 'food revolution' is underway. Jekyll star James Nesbitt hooks up with baker Kate Packwood who explains that there's a new focus on homegrown Irish produce. "We're really on the crest of a wave here", says Kate, "We're moving with a real drive towards wonderful Irish produce and it's very exciting to be part of it." James Nesbitt wastes no time in tucking into some of Kate's famous lavender shortbread and caramel brownies. We thought he was sweet enough already – but go figure!
Perfume on the air
With crumbs still on his face, Hobbit star James Nesbitt hits the Burren in County Clare. If he senses something familiar about the place it's no surprise. The Hobbit author JRR Tolkien was inspired by the ecological mysteries of the Burren when he was penning Lord of the Rings.
With up to 70% of Ireland's flower species growing in the Burren it was the perfect place for Sadie Chowen and her husband Ralph to set up their unique perfumery business. The couple are determined to capture the "scent of the Burren" by using the naturally occurring flowers of the area in their perfume. They show the Cold Feet star around the Burren and get him sniffing some of the wonderful flowers they use. Will Nesbitt come up smelling like roses? Wait and see…
A curious cure
Next up Antrim actor James Nesbitt meets with father son duo Mick and Neil Watson. The Watson lads are re-discovering the healing and therapeutic properties of… seaweed. Yes, the twosome has built their business upon this traditional remedy. Neil explains to Nesbitt, "Seaweed is an amazing plant. It has every vitamin and mineral that the body needs. Once you put it into a bath, because the seaweed is alkaline and the seawater is alkaline, your body detoxes and then you absorb all the goodness from the plant as well." James Nesbitt in a seaweed bath! This we've got to see.
Sufficiently full, healed and smelling lovely, James Nesbitt is rejuvenated and ready to continue on his Irish odyssey. Tune in next week to see where his adventures take him in Ireland.
The next episode of James Nesbitt's Ireland will be transmitted on ITV on Monday 22 April at 8pm

In this publicity image released by Pegasus Motion Pictures, "Lost in Thailand" stars, from left, Bo Huang, Xu Zheng, and Wang Baoqiang, pose together. Xu, the director, writer and star of China's biggest box-office hit, says "Lost in Thailand" succeeded by showing a rarely seen subject: modern Chinese life. The historical epic, fantasy, action and thriller genres have long filled China's domestic movie screens. But "Lost in Thailand" was a low-budget and light-hearted road-trip tale about an ambitious executive who goes to Thailand to get his boss's approval for a business deal. Along the way he's pursued by a rival co-worker and encounters a wacky tourist who helps him rethink his priorities. (AP Photo/Pegasus Motion Pictures)

CommentsTagsab exercises abs workout burn fat cardio Circuit Workouts Eat Clean exercise fitness i want my bikini body red carpet ready Strength Training Valligators valslide
10 Reasons Why You're NOT Beach Body Ready
1. You don't make it a priority. Getting fit is not about having more time but rather deciding that it's important to you. More important than 30 minutes of sleep. More important than TV or Facebook. More important than endlessly checking email or Twitter. When you make exercise and healthy eating a MUST and not a should, you will get fit.
2. You thought you could start on Monday. It's Friday. Why start your diet now? Better to have 1 or 2 last hurrahs this weekend. Drinks and greasy appetizers after work on Friday, pizza and a movie on Saturday. Who starts a diet on Sunday? You have to finish off the last of the bad stuff in the house so you can start fresh on Monday. Meanwhile, you probably just gained 2 more pounds. What if you start right now? Drink a big glass of water. Resolve to make a healthy choice at your very next meal, and then do it. The bowl of Skittles at your colleagues desk – ignore it. Get a friend to meet you for a workout Friday evening instead of happy hour. You could try a yoga or spinning class. If you have to meet your friend, it guarantees you will show up. Remember, you are one meal away from someone who eats healthy and you are one workout away from being someone who makes fitness a priority.
3. You leave your nutrition to chance. Please do not assume that wherever you are, where ever you go, healthy food will be an option. The easiest way to beat this is to bring your food with you. Pack your lunch and don't forget snacks. Carry water with you, always. If you know you are meeting someone for a meal, check the restaurants in the area ahead of time. Look at their menus online. Decide what you will order ahead of time so you don't get overwhelmed when you get there or swayed by what everyone else is ordering.
4. You are only doing cardio until you lose weight. This one kills me – for heaven's sake, get your butt in the weight room!! You will get results much faster and look WAY better if you are doing strength training. If you strength train in a circuit like I suggest in my Red Carpet Ready or my soon to be released I Want My Bikini Body Express program, you will feel like you had an intense cardio workout. Of course to really lose weight, you MUST be eating clean but you know that. Eating clean, along with my strength training circuits will give you the body you long for.
5. You've been doing the same routine for 6 months. Just because you lost 10 pounds doing Zumba, The Biggest Loser workout DVD of my super effective I Want My Bikini Body program, doesn't mean it will continue to work for you. So to keep getting the best results, change your program, every 6 to 8 weeks.
6. You're trying to crunch your way to better abs. First of all, crunches are not going to burn the fat covering your abs, so you need to clean up your diet and do full body strength workouts and interval style cardio, like in my I Want My Bikini Body Express. Second, you need to upgrade your ab exercises. If you've mastered the plank, then it's time to move on to The Valslide Body Saw, Valslide 1 Arm Slide, Stability Ball Roll Aways, Valligators and Witches Cauldron. You're abs will love it. You can thank me later.
7. You give up too soon. I know you want your beach body yesterday, but you must persevere and you must be consistent. Enough with the "I'll workout 3 hours a day and eat less than 1,000 calories". You cannot sustain that. That doesn't mean that sometimes you don't lighten things up occasionally or do a detox, but if you are tired of starting over, stop quitting! I don't think 3-hour workouts make sense if you're not a pro athlete so let's look at something more sustainable, and then sustain it!
8. You don't know how OR are too tired to cook. You do not need to be a master chef to cook clean. Make an effort to learn a few basic recipes and keep staples on hand. With a little practice and a stocked pantry you can have a healthy dinner on the table faster than the pizza delivery guy can make it to your door.
9. You stay up watching Leno, Conan or Jimmy. Sleep is often the missing ingredient in a weight loss program. I know I asked you to get up earlier to workout but if you are consistently sleep deprived, you will not lose weight. In fact, you may gain weight. So, turn off the TV, computer, etc. Darken the room and get to sleep, ideally before 11. If you are in your 20′s and can sleep later and can't miss a night out, so be it. Just get your 8 hours – it really truly is important!
10. You give your power away – you tell yourself you can't do it before you've really tried. I assure you, you can lose weight, you can get strong, and you can be fit. Get your best body now. What are you waiting for?
My programs work. So do some other programs. The best ones have some things in common. Here's your 10-step guide:
1. Decide
2. Commit
3. Focus
4. Eat Clean
5. Lift Weights – circuits are best
6. Do interval style cardio
7. Sleep – 8 hours a day
8. Drink more water. More than that!
9. Don't quit
10. Believe in you. You need to believe too.

The sharp shooters of marine life
The archerfish's long distance spitting can fire a bug off of a branch and send it down to the water's surface, and the nearly-blind pistol shrimp uses its gigantic claw to stun its prey with a bubble nearly as hot as the Sun. However, if the archerfish didn't have keen eyes enabling it to detect an insect against a vegetative background, and if the pistol shrimp lacked its protective eye covers, called orbital hoods, these animals might never have developed the ballistic mechanisms that characterize them.

This will go nowhere.
A pleasant surprise - and grounds for a glimmer of hope. This is exactly the right path. It may be that economic reality -competition for jobs in a tight market- will scrape off the ideological barnacles and fungi that have accumulated since the Sixties and restore education to the schools and universities. Political correctness and dumbed down courses with phony majors of no value to anyone may soon be a luxury American society can no longer afford. Of course it is just a dream - but dreams sometimes come true, especially when reality is behind them and pushing them forward. The rubbish preached in schools and universities doesn´t justify the time and expense of going to school. About all modern education seems to be good for is producing Obama voters who can´t find jobs and expect the government to take care of them.
The Common Core is yet another way for Big Government/Big Education to micromanage teaching. This idea did not emanate from teachers, teacher educators, or even administrators. It came from politicians -even Republican governors.Yet billions of dollars will be spent on inservice to prepare teachers to accommodate these standards. Education is a local responsibility. No Conservative should give CC a second thought.Ramona (the Pest)
It doesn´t make any different how great David Coleman is. Education is a state responsibility and the feds need to butt out!
I have been in schools that have started implementing Common Core. To me it is a nightmare and I´m glad I am no longer teaching. The books and materials are being dictated by the state or regional education service agencies with orders not to deviate from the set curriculum. The amount of time to be spent on each skill is dictated. The abilities of students or their interests don´t matter and the principals are enforcing this. All creativity is extinguished and the joy of teaching is disappearing. Common Core might be appropriate for teachers with no training, but it is horrible for any teacher who thrives on individualization, creativity, relevance, and appropriateness.

When applying for personal accident insurance cover you should include all relevant information on your application - failing to do so is known as 'non-disclosure' and could eventually result in a claim being refused by the insurance company.
When the insurance company receives your application, specialists may assess it. The information you provide on the application form helps the insurance company to decide whether your application is accepted at face value, needs supporting with more information, has exclusions or is deferred for a period of time, or is declined altogether.
On Personal Accident insurance, if they do not like what they see, almost all insurers will just turn down your application rather than seek ways of offering you cover.
Premiums can also be increased if your occupation or activity is known to be hazardous t – e.g. someone who flies a lot will pay higher insurance premiums.

Irving, Texas, Becomes Latest City to Drop ICLEI & UN Agenda 21
Officials in Irving, Texas, recently decided not to renew the city government's membership in a highly controversial organization known as ICLEI, an international group linked to the United Nations' "Agenda 21" working to quietly impose so-called "sustainable development" on local communities. Tea Party groups, conservative activists, and supporters of private property rights promptly celebrated the news as yet another victory in the battle against the UN plot.
Tennessee Lawmakers Pass Resolution Blasting UN Agenda 21
Legislation attacking the United Nations' "Agenda 21" agreement as a radical socialist plot at odds with American liberty and values was approved overwhelmingly by members of the Tennessee House of Representatives last Thursday, sparking some criticism by far-left activists but widespread praise by conservative groups and Tea Party organizations across the nation.
Ocean County, New Jersey, Blasts UN Agenda 21 in Resolution
In yet another victory for liberty-minded activists, local lawmakers in Ocean County, New Jersey, approved a stinging resolution last month blasting the United Nations' highly controversial Agenda 21, a radical plan to foist so-called "sustainable development" on Americans by stealth.
Texas City Withdraws From ICLEI, UN "Agenda 21"
Officials in the City of College Station, Texas, announced that the city government would be withdrawing from ICLEI, an international organization linked to the United Nations and its controversial "Agenda 21." Local Tea Party activists and concerned citizens promptly applauded the decision as another victory for national sovereignty and property rights.
Obama Forms New "Climate" Coalition Led by UN
The Obama administration announced without congressional approval Thursday that it was forming a new international coalition overseen by the United Nations, supposedly in an effort to fight "climate change" by regulating certain types of emissions. Dubbed the "Climate and Clean Air Coalition," the emerging alliance includes the governments ruling Mexico, Bangladesh, Canada, Sweden, and Ghana.
UN May Get Global Carbon Tax on Air Travel to Avert "Trade War"
The United Nations may be able to seize an opportunity — presented by mass resistance against the "carbon tax" on air travel imposed by the European Union — to extract global taxes from airline passengers, with claims that failure to adopt a worldwide taxation regime under the UN International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) could result in a "trade war."
UN Bosses Secretly Plot Global Govt Through "Green Economy" for Rio+20
United Nations boss Ban Ki-moon and his top deputies gathered in secret last year to chart the future course of humanity through "sustainable development," a controversial concept the UN equates with "saving the planet" in what would ultimately entail a radical and complete transformation of human civilization. But even though the erection of a global so-called "green-economy" regime is a top UN priority, leaked minutes of the meeting revealed that the term itself remains undefined.
China Rejects "Illegal" EU Carbon Tax on Airlines
The Chinese government announced on Monday that it would prohibit its airlines from paying a controversial "carbon tax" on flights to and from Europe imposed by the European Union, putting the continental regime in a tough bind as it seeks assistance from Beijing to tackle the region's spiraling debt crisis. Unspecified retaliatory measures will be taken if the EU persists, according to Chinese officials, who say the taxes violate international treaties.
Ambitious UN Sustainability Conference in Rio to Avoid Climate Talk
This June's United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development (UN CSD) in Rio de Janeiro will largely sidestep discussions of climate-change theories as leaders perceive the subject to be too controversial, according to summit insiders seeking ambitious and wide-ranging agreements on the world's future. What is being touted as the biggest political gathering of the year will instead focus on framing UN "green" goals in terms of economic prosperity and environmental necessity.
UN Climate Summit Fails on Binding Treaty, But Danger Remains
Government climate dignitaries and the Associated Press hailed the "landmark" deal reached Sunday at the United Nations' global-warming summit in Durban, South Africa. According to environmentalist groups, however, the agreement represented a failure of the 17th Conference of the Parties (COP17) to "save" the world from supposedly "dangerous" carbon dioxide emissions.

UIAA introduces new Executive Director 15 Jul 2010
It is with great pleasure that l am able to announce that the UIAA has engaged a new Executive Director. This person is Ingo Nicolay who joined the UIAA on July 1, 2010. Ingo comes to us with very impressive credentials. Not only in business but more importantly for us, as the president of the Heilbronn Section of the DAV, the German alpine club. In this capacity he has been the president of a club of 10,000 members. As such Ingo knows how to work with people in a not-for-profit organization where the challenge is to work with the motivated volunteers within the UIAA. At this time we must express our gratitude to Ingo's predecessor, Judith Safford, for all of her hard work in the past and we wish her all the best in the future. I hope you will all join me in welcoming Ingo to the UIAA. Mike Mortimer President |


text: Bourbon Barrel Food's aged Worcestershire sauce is a unique take on the traditional all-purpose seasoning. Handcrafted in small batches using local ingredients like sorghum and pure Kentucky limestone spring water, it's then mellowed in repurposed bourbon barrels. This tangy, slightly sweet Worcestershire sauce has just the right touch of smokiness to enhance the piquant flavor of the classic condiment. Made without anchovies, it's also vegan.

State Rep. Rex Damschroder, State Sen. Dave Burke and Gov. John Kasich have gone absolutely flaccid on crime. They have signed off on legislation, House Bill 86, that allows property crimes to rise from a ceiling of $500 all the way up to a new ceiling of $1,000 per occurrence before they become felonies. The list includes theft, receiving stolen property, unauthorized use of property, passing bad checks, Medicaid fraud, Medicaid eligibility fraud, illegal use of WIC benefits, insurance fraud, falsification, corrupt activity and many more. The above politicians are only for private enterprise in the sense that a pickpocket is enterprising. However, a pickpocket does not respect private property rights. Apparently, our representative, senator and governor are against protecting private property and the public trust from thievery.
If this is not enough, in a time when our homes and small businesses are increasingly burgled by young drug addicts, the above politicos signed Senate Bill 337, which turns a fourth-degree misdemeanor for drug paraphernalia for pot into a minor misdemeanor. This is less serious than a speeding ticket, because it cannot increase in penalty for multiple offenses. In addition to the thievery this drug habit produces, it is also the favorite tactic of pushers to lace pot with cocaine and narcotics to create strawberry girls and drug mules who violate all of the mentioned laws to support their addictions.
This attack on our private property rights is a continuing assault on law enforcement by these politicians. Apparently, they never noticed the second stanza of "America the Beautiful," which ends with "Confirm thy soul in self-control, thy liberty and law." The law is the fence around the playground that protects us so we can play and frolic in safety without fear from the harsh world of violence and theft outside the perimeter. Our playground just got smaller. I would not be a true Republican if I did not go to battle against the betrayal of our private property rights.
Very truly yours,
Richard H. Palau, Tiffin

Riders: Chaos inside MBTA trolleys that collided
Posted: 11/29/12 at 5:20 pm Updated: 11/29/12 at 8:36 pm
Tags: MBTA Green Line collision Boylston
BOSTON (WHDH) -- Passengers said it was chaos inside two trolleys that collided at the Boylston "T" stop in Boston Thursday.
"In the beginning we didn't know what happened everybody just violently went in one direction -- people fell onto the floor," said Dan Singleton, a passenger.
Passengers said it took a while for everyone to figure out what happened.
"It was hard enough that it could have been -- If you told me a bomb or explosion I might have believed it. We didn't know what it was in the beginning," Singleton said.
Dan Singleton was headed outbound from Park Street. He said he was lucky he grabbed a seat because some passengers chose to stand.
"I smashed into the railing that I was sitting next to -- the metal bar that hurt my knee, my knee hurts, my back is sort of off. But I can walk and move and I think I'm lucky but some people are bleeding," said Singleton.
Even though all of the injuries appeared to be minor, people on the trolleys were still thrown around.
"It was going and all of the sudden 'boom' and everyone piled up on each other -- I see people like smashed into the pole some hit their head and shoulders," said Walter Lazare, a passenger.
Most passengers said they were lucky because the situation could have been much worse.

Defense-related companies already feel the effects of threatened cuts in federal spending, according to several who exhibited at Tuesday's Defense and Economic Development Trade Show in Fayetteville.
On Jan. 1, $1 trillion in cuts to federal spending - spread across 10 years - would kick in if Congress and the president continue to let the country go on without a new spending plan. Half of the cuts would be to the military, a prospect that worries companies that supply Fort Bragg.
"Sequestration," the term for the reductions, was a bad word among some of the 700 visitors and 86 exhibitors at the 11th-annual conference at Fayetteville Technical Community College. Some wore anti-sequestration stickers passed out by the Fayetteville-Cumberland County Chamber of Commerce.
"If I had a nickel for every time sequestration was mentioned, I'd fill the jar," said Dan MacLachlan with Kidde Aerospace & Defense. The company has seen the aerospace sector flourish, but budget cuts have affected sales forecasts.
"Our projected sales aren't quite as rosy as we'd like them to be," MacLachlan said.
Sherry Lyons, director of global sales at tactical apparel manufacturer XGO in West End, said cuts could mean her company will lose 10 jobs.
"It will end up costing some jobs, and I hate to think that way," Lyons said.
Lyons said she's in touch with lobbyists daily who inform her about the congressional climate.
Rich Young, director of special operations forces strategy and business development at Concurrent Technologies Corp., said he's seen military organizations crack down on conference funding. A joint missions conference that Concurrent Technologies planned to attend was recently canceled because of lack of financial support from the Navy, Young said.
He's also seen bigger companies such as Lockheed Martin and General Dynamics going after smaller contracts.
"The smartest and the most agile will survive," he said.
Scott Dorney, executive director of the N.C. Military Business Center, said the mood at Tuesday's workshops, teaming event and trade show was hopeful.
"In everything, there is opportunity, and it's about finding your niche and taking advantage of the situation," Dorney said.
Democratic U.S. Sen. Kay Hagan of North Carolina blamed "political gamesmanship" in Washington for the looming crisis. She spoke during Tuesday's events.
"We know that sequestration is a threat that is hanging over our country. It is an issue that we can't keep kicking the can down the road," she told reporters. "We have got to solve the long-term debt, the annual deficit issues in our country today, without the sequestration that would negatively impact our defense industry and our military."
Hagan and Republican U.S. Sen. Richard Burr of North Carolina sit on a bipartisan group to solve the problem - "10 Democrats and 10 Republicans that are working closely together on this," she said.
Burr, who also attended the conference, blamed President Obama and a general lack of political courage in Washington for the budget impasse.
He hopes the problem is solved before the November election, he said, "but an aversion from this requires leadership, and up to this point we've seen no leadership from the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue. A bipartisan group of members of Congress would like to have a solution to this."
Burr cited recent legislation the Senate approved to extend an $80 billion business tax credit for a year.
"Just $60 billion of that could have foregone sequestration for next year for the military," he said. "It's easy, but it takes a tremendous amount of courage on the parts of members of Congress to cut programs that might affect them directly."
State Rep. Larry Kissell, a Democrat from the 8th District, said Congress should have avoided sequestration last year when it had plenty of time to find a solution. He said he voted against the sequestration legislation, which was crafted last year in a last-minute bipartisan compromise to prevent the nation from defaulting on its debts.
Kissell predicted that congressional leaders will fix the problem. He said the consequences of failure are too great to allow.
"If they've sat through the meetings I've sat through, then yes, they will come up with something," he said. "Because the cuts to defense and civilian programs will be so broad and irresponsibly non-specific. It doesn't matter if the program's good or bad, they just cut. It's just blast everything and see then what's left."

No chance I'm afraid!
It's true, once you play a collection guitar it kind of reduces or eliminates your PRS GAS. These guitars are so different and great that nothing seems to compare. When I was at the 2013 PRS Experience I mentioned this to a couple guys that work in the final assembly area. They both agreed that they felt the same way about how great the collection guitars are. The bottom line is that every private stock I play has similar magic. It's just a great guitar!
By my calculations there are only 7 or 8 International Collection Vs out there, so you may have quite a wait for one to come up for sale!!!
Some of the most rad guitars I've ever played were Collection Series instruments. I'm normally not a big fan of Rosewood necks but the Coral Snake McCarty 408 I played was life altering. The Collection DGT I played was also the same experience. I think those Celtic Knots are some ancient X-Files action and alter your mind to believe that you're holding the best guitar ever made. That or they simply are. I'm going with X-Files!!!
Plank Owner
Guitars - PRS
Amps - PRS, Orange, Bogner, 5150 III
I'm not sure why it's listed as Coral Snake in a few places? The colour of the V is Blue Tourmaline with Smoked Burst...
I have a couple of Pernys and wish I could get more...
Thanks - they're pretty rare here in the UK...

Chocolate and Cheese: Handsome men in hairnets discuss a New Winter Sport?
September 22, 2011 - 4:59pm | by stephanieTaza Chocolate in Somerville Ma.
5 years ago Alex Whitmore and partners Larry Slotnick and Kathleen Fulton (also Alex's wife) started this mesoamerican-style bean-to-bar chocolate factory. And true to their vision, this chocolate is handmade from start to finish. They buy their beans in the DR, Mexico, Belize, and they recently added Bolivia. (note: if you get a chance, try the 87% bolivian choc bar side by side with the 80% DR...then you'll really see what terroir means to the cacao bean.)
Their beans are fermented, which means, like all things fermented, flavor is amped. And then they get roasted (in the fabulous Willi Wonka machine pictured below. don't you want one? I do. and it's RED!) The beans are then stone ground, on mexican stone mills that Alex hand chisels himself (check out the pic below of him holding one.) Impressive.

Can the familiarity with math assist a new winning player for you to win?
One could often listen to the fact that greatest sugestion distributed by a new mathematician to a lover regarding playing video game titles is undoubtedly an affirmation which will is the fact the most effective strategy throughout betting game titles is finish quarante by engaging within them. A lot of mathematicians think about that one of the most that the theory regarding possibility and also the hypothesis regarding video games can give the casino player will be the techniques next which often this individual refuses to shed an excessive amount of.
It is difficult to estimate if the Us mathematician Edward cullen Thorp shared this perspective, while after investing winter weather holiday seasons throughout Las-Vegas, this individual, obtaining joined the on line casino, chose to attempt their good luck hanging around involving twenty-one. Since it demonstrated, Dame Good fortune ended up being particularly unkind to him or her. We do not learn definitely just how much income that teacher regarding math concepts of merely one of yankee schools shed in which winter months night whole often the 50-s the start of typically the 60-s of the continue centuries, nonetheless judging by the events the total amount wasn't small. Usually, so why is all of us take into account the fact progress a fantastic approach of the sport started to be for several years a good idte fixe in our leading man. Apart from, the problem was not solely inside degree money shed from the mathematician. Possibly, Thorp seemed to be easily a very venturesome man, spectacular delight both these styles any bettor and also a expert-mathematician had been hurt. Furthermore, can suspect the croupier regarding dishonesty, because, as he previously observed, business cant be found shuffled following each activity. Although, during the sport on its own the idea failed to help make him or her very apprehensive. But after doing that, getting frequented internet casinos many instances, he / she pointed out that as the principles didn't presuppose essential shuffling involving control cards right after each online game, thus it was hard to animadvert on any croupier regarding anything at all. Anyways, he / she been able to establish a earning technique amongst gamers connected with twenty-one.
This investment strategy amongst others was based on the identical very element which will possessed put a overcome mathematician on his shield memory cards are not shuffled too much. Too, this particular, apparently, typically, had been carried out not really as a consequence of many wicked design, but also in in an attempt to steer clear of, to properly claim, pointless slowdowns amongst gamers. The effects associated with his studies Edward cullen Thorp you want to within a publication published inside 1962 (Thorp Elizabeth. To The fatigue vendor. A winning method for the action involving twenty one. rapid New york city: Blaisdell, 62. ) that manufactured keepers associated with gambling properties inside the state connected with Nevasca in essence change the rules from the game connected with twenty-one. Although let's take a not necessarily ride prior to hounds.
As outlined by the game rules of twenty-one of this time one croupier dealt gamblers a couple cards each from some sort of thoroughly shuffled contain which involves 52 cards. Players them selves did not display their own business into a penalties croupier. As well out of a pair of credit cards considered regarding himself the official of an internet casino revealed at least one (usually the very first one) to be able to gamblers. Bettors take a look at all their cards in accordance with the next degree. Jacks, a queen and also noblemen have got a worth add up to 10 tips, a advisor can be designated both just one stage or perhaps 11 items, the value of Pokerspiele all the other cards coincided using mathematical value (eights got eight things, nines had taken being unfaithful, as well as etc). In which bettor was regarded as successful who memory cards on hand using the sum of details closest to 21 from the end. Which, getting considered typically the got control cards every gambler (including any croupier) acquired a right to use from a group or maybe placing that simpler, have a widow, anywhere connected with cards. Nevertheless , in the event that, subsequently, the entire variety of things from a widow, will certainly surpass 21 years of age things then a gambler should opt out of a activity acquiring demonstrated his or her credit cards.
Unique rules were being set up pertaining to levels. Primarily, upper and lower range ended up set, and each bettor got a good of choice of the precise stake (within these types of bounds) based on the review associated with his position. If, because of this, it had been which according to the overall game regulations any casino's customer possessed any "better" volume of points on hand compared to a croupier acquired, this individual got a gain from the amount of the actual position that he or she had produced, or else, this gambler lost his or her share. In the case of an equal variety of parts of the winning player and a croupier, the sport resulted in serenity, that is the reaction the sport is considered safe for both some sort of risk taker as well as a gambling establishment.
Let's state this contrary to common bettors a croupier is absolutely not obliged to spread out their business in that case in case the amount of details in these business is greater than 21 years old. In addition, in fact the bettors have popped their own cards, and for that reason, each of the levels examine casino bettors could not virtually discover what is the number of parts of some sort of croupier, to be able to create all their game method for your next sport (whether to help threat or not to stand up jim, as well as etc). Its fair to say, it gives a croupier extensive rewards. In addition to, all the players are generally surely aware about this specific, as well as, keep play. Absolutely nothing can be achieved regarding it, would you require dangers, as is known, is not going to gain.

WOW, that's really hmm….I will be nice. Disconnect for a few minutes and use the Microwave. lol
You'll also get all the dust the cpu fan circulates on the pizza…
Funny, but not a good idea !
Nice idea… but perfectible!!
For Example, you can make a square hole on your desk, it with a metal plate, and set up a covered aluminum foil drawer, under it… -
That will only work with thick, soft, pizza. Real thin crust pizza requires an oven temperature of around 600f, about 200 to 300 degrees higher than you can achieve with the typical laptop.
That was a brilliant idea! You really have a very intelligent mind. Thanks for sharing this.
That's what I call a Great IDEA. You can EaT without leaving your PC. HARDCORE !!!

I am having the same issue with id_member_updated. I have been trying to figure out the originating phpBB column that I am assuming is null. I looked at the code, found where id_member_updated is being written and searched back to where the corresponding variable was being set. I copied the SQL that pulled the value in. It is below. I then ran that in phpAdmin with the thought being to find the bad data and correct. Every value returned as myid_first_msg and myid_last_msg is null. So I am skeptical that this is bad data specific to my database or the several others that have had the problem.
--- Code: ---SELECT t.id_topic, MIN( m.id_msg ) AS myid_first_msg, t.id_first_msg, MAX( m.id_msg ) AS myid_last_msg, t.id_last_msg, COUNT( m.id_msg ) -1 AS my_num_replies, t.num_replies

GROUP BY t.id_topic
HAVING id_first_msg != myid_first_msg
OR id_last_msg != myid_last_msg
OR num_replies != my_num_replies
--- End code ---
It looks like it is probably earlier, I am looking the SQL file instead of convert.php. I added the order by and am getting one null.

Convert to 1.1.14 and than to 2.0 its easy and fast, save your time :)
My concern about doing that was your last post still indicated you were having issues. I take it you resolved them.
I think I can fix the one topic that is giving the problem. The post indicated by the last post ID in the topic does not exist. I need to figure out the post ID of the real last post.
