FULL NAME: Isoba Diop Alias: Solomon
D.O.B: April 15 1770
APPEARANCE: Isoba is a relatively short man standing about five and a half feet tall and is a solid 155 lbs. He has dark; copper colored skin and a neatly trimmed haircut. When not in his Assassin robes, he dresses like a simple clothes a nice collared shirt and simple slacks. When working his craft, he wears a black apron over a simple, often dirty white shirt and heavier pants. Both outfits are relatively loose fitting barely showing his muscular frame. He always wears a coin slightly bigger than a quarter on a necklace that has the Assassin Symbol on it.
HISTORY: Isobas lineage comes from when the Moors ruled Spain in the 1300s. His fathers family is blacksmiths by trade and his mothers family is a noble family exiled to Northern Africa. Although they did not care for their daughter being married to a blacksmith, they were happy to see some part of their family return to Spain. Isoba worked with his father in the family forge from the tender age of 8 or 9 starting off with minor tasks like drawing water to cool the hot iron or pushing air through the billows to keep the fire going. As time progressed he built up stamina learned as much of the trade as possible, while he was not in school.
Isobas schooling was very important to his mother so she insured that he got as much education as possible. Isobas first interaction with The Assassins came with the private tutor. Isobas family was nowhere near wealthy so the private tutor took almost all of the families money. His tutor, a very elderly Spanish Assassin, ran a small school of young men who stayed at the school for 6 months out of the year. There they learned all sorts of skills from an appreciation of music, art and language, history of war and politics. The Elderly School Keeper often brought in younger men, who were also Assassins to teach hand-to-hand combat and agility plus; when the students got older they were taught short range weapons and some sword play, all under the close watch of the school keeper. Upon graduation at 18, everyone who received high enough marks in all areas received a heavy coin slightly larger than the size of a quarter on one side was the Spanish flag with a saying, Nada es verdad, todo esta permitido underneath and on the other side was the Assassin Symbol. The School Keeper explained it as a token of good luck that the graduates should keep hidden and a reminder to always question what you may see in life. He continued to explain that life was about good and evil and those who recognized the symbol as good would be friends to you forever; those who did not were to be considered enemies to you and your family and were not to be trusted. This confused most of the graduates, especially Isoba but he decided to keep the coin with him everywhere he went.
After graduation many of the boys from the school remained friends and traveled to see each other. Like most young men the chased women and got drunk in their free time, Isoba quickly became fond of both activities. Isoba and his two best friends were always seen together, once work was over they would met in the center of town and chase after girls until the birds began to chirp then they would rush home for some sleep before the next mornings work. Eventually one of his friends visited him and asked him to punch a hole through his coin so that it could be worn as a necklace. Since Isoba was well on his way as an apprentice blacksmith this was an easy task and soon they all wore their coins as necklaces. This proved to be a good way to start conversations with the girls in the square so soon they were boasting about their time at their Academy. It was not long before the Templars caught wind of this and sent some of their younger recruits to take out the boys boasting in the market. Isoba and his friends make quick work of the young Templars, sending them home bruised and embarrassed. However, The Templars learned of the boys weakness and sent female agents to the square the next evening with the mission of enticing and killing the Isoba and his friends. That night, the female Templar agents had full intention of poisoning the young boys with while they got intoxicated but Isoba showed up late, some of the women who were used to seeing him in the square pointed him in the direction of the Inn where his friends had went. When he arrived, he found them dead with the templar agents rummaging through their stuff before Isoba could act a third Templar agent hit him in the back of the head with a bronze candle stick holder, knocking him senseless.
Isoba woke up in a familiar place, back at his old school. The School Keeper shaking his head at the bedside. It was there that Isoba learned the true meaning of the emblem on the coin and what it represented. As soon as he recovered, he started full training to become and Assassin and by the age of 21 he was fully recognized by the Assassins of Spain, he also regained his coin. A year later, as the wish of his dying mentor, he traveled to France to find and assist them in anyway possible.
PERSONALITY: Isoba is generally a likeable kind of guy. He enjoys laughter and the company of people who he is close to. He respects brotherhood as it was the other boys in the school that helped him get through a lot of things in life but, he is overly fond of women and easily gets distracted by a pretty face often times showing off for them and likely doing something stupid.
ATTITUDE: He is mostly level headed unless in the company of a woman that he finds attractive then he will sometime be show off almost recklessly to gain some sort of recognition from them. Isoba respects the dead enough not to degrade them but he will not stop to perform burials, say a few words or any other type of rituals for someone that he does not know personally.
STRENGTHS: Hand-to-Hand Combat, Strength, Agility
WEAPON OF CHOICE: Blacksmith Hammer, Dagger
WEAKNESSES: Heavy Weapons (Two Handed Swords, Heavy Armor etc.) Women, Alcohol
SN: I'm willing to adjust time frames to fit whatever RP even though I made this chara specifically for one RP.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
"This card is definitely 'clean' and classy. The design and color is a sophisticated in person as it is online. I used the same theme for my wedding invites, menus,place cards, etc...and we received many, many compliments. The only negative is that the was not an indentation to easily fold the card, so it creates a faint wrinkle and is a little inconvenient."
"The paper and picture quality are great. The card was a bit smaller than I thought it would be, but it will save us from writing a lot in each card! I like how I was able to customize the color, font, etc. - I was able to stick with the theme of our Save the Dates, invitations, etc., which I also ordered from Wedding Paper Divas. I am very happy with the purchase - I will use their sister company, Tiny Prints in the future."
"Quality of paper and printing was great. I received so many compliments on how nice they looked and how great the quality was. Very happy with this product."
"My husband and I had a destination wedding that many close friends and family were not able to attend. These cards made it possible to give them an idea of how beautiful our day really was - it carried the beach them out with the palm tree but I loved that I was able to put a photo of our wedding day on the beach with it. Everyone LOVED recieving our cards!!!"
"I loved the layout of the card since I had chosen a pic of our beach wedding, I went with green and it looked beautiful with the ocean in the background and us on the sand... So lovely!!! Got excellent reviews from our friends and family who loved our card!"

Nathaniel's At The Hawthorne Hotel
Online Reservations
Nathaniel's has an old world elegance that is in sync with the Hawthorne Hotel. My wife and I had the pleasure of dining at Nathaniel's and would recommend it highly to anyone while staying or visiting Salem.
Never had a bad meal or service here. Best deal for Restaurant Week around too, as you can choose almost anything on their menu, as opposed to a prix fixe meal. Choosing is the hardest part, since everything is sooo good!! Already looking forward to my next visit!
Went to Nathaniels for their Salem Restaurant Week 3 course for $25 special. This historic hotel dining room complete with continuous background live piano is a gem! Most Restaurant Week menus are very limited. Here you can have, with few exceptions, virtually anything on the menu. That means, there were 4 different seafood main courses and 4 meat and vegan main courses to chose from. All creatively prepared. Our 3 main courses included shrimp and scallops, swordfish, and monk fish. Appetiser and dessert menues were also broad, fresh and delicious. Varied and not overly pricey wine list. You could pay double in Boston and not have this good a total experience.
My wife and I stayed at the Hawthorn Hotel where Nathaniel's is located. It was nice to be able to walk off the elevator and into the restaurant. We were pleasantly surprised by the service and menu not to mention the old world elegance. Very nice experience.
I love nathanial's. The food is always so good and the service is awesome.its a nice mellow place with affordable meal choices and each one is yummy!
We went on a quiet night and the food and service was very good. It is more fit for a special occasion or celebration.
Nathaniel's at The Hawthorne Hotel always lives up to our expectations. The food is creative plus you can order demi portions rather than splitting an entree. The ambience is formal but cozy. Sunday brunch includes live music and a prix fixe option if you want. Dinners are also excellent, as well as, everyday breakfasts.
We went early on a Friday night and were therefore able to take advantage of a new offering - complimentary mesclun salad and chef's choice of dessert if you order entrees before 5:30 pm. We both enjoyed the very fresh salad and mix of hot rolls with that were brought to our table along with an herb and cheese dipping oil. We then had the beef short ribs and the shrimp and scallop sofia, which were both delicious. Upon a recommendation we ordered the apple blossom for dessert, and that was served hot with vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of caramel sauce - yummy! Our waitress, Judy, was attentive and kept our water glasses full, which was much appreciated. The dining room is formal with a quiet elegance, and live piano music comes later.
Nathaniel's at the Hawthorne Hotel is trip back in time (in a good way). Both the hotel and the restaurant have the feel of old New England. The staff are very friendly and attentive without being pushy. The wine list is adequate but not extensive; Vinophiles should look elsewhere. The restaurant also has an adequately stocked bar if you desire a cocktail. The menu is focused. Clearly the chef is intent on executing a few classic dishes very well (which they do). The atmosphere is quiet and reserved (low lights and a live piano player). The t-shirt and jeans crowd or families with small children will definitely feel out of place here. That's not necessarily a bad thing.
My wife and I have been to The Nathaniel twice, each time to celebrate an anniversary, because it's that kind of a place. The dining room is intimate, the decor is pleasantly old-fashioned, the pianist is way above the usual "lounge" musician. The food is excellent (we both had the warm spinach salad with bacon and crunchy chick peas; my wife had the shrimp and scallion dish, I had the braised lamb) but not avant -- you won't find your entree piled into a teetering vertical structure, surrounding with tracks of sauce squeezed onto the plate. The service is attentive, but unpretentious. Overall, this is a great choice for a romantic get-away or a special occasion.
The Jazz Brunch was a great way to entertain friends. Better yet, was the served brunch from a menu and not a steam table version. White tablecloths also added to the atmosphere. Tables were also set comfortably apart from each other allowing for a sense of privacy.
We were a group of around 20 folks, and had a marvelous time. The food was terrific, and the wait staff was so very gracious, professional and attentive. We loved every bite--both starters, bread, entrees, and marvelous desserts. Everyone in our group was happy and grateful. Bravo!
We chose this place for a 70th birthday celebration. The menu had something for everyone. The choices were somewhat standard with some slight twists. Overall, an excellent meal and a classic atmosphere.
This was a very good restaurant - very small only about a dozen tables. Had a man playing the piano. I felt bad for him and the waitstaff though - only 4 tables filled.
The food was excellent and had several gluten free items to choose from. Unlike a lot of restaurants I have been to recently, Nathaniel's was very flexible in allowing me to pick different sides other than the ones that came with my entree. The service was excellent and the ambience quiet; my husband and I were able to talk and hear each other while low, beautiful classical music was playing in the background. This is a great place for a special occasion or if you happen to be in Salem and want a good dinner and some classic ambience.
I took my boyfriend there for a special night out and it was absolutely wonderful. We had a romantic time and the food was delicious, I had the surf and turf and he had the baked stuffed shrimp. Very happy with our waitress and the ambiance was splenid, perfect lighting and the piano player was the icing on the cake.
Went to Nathaniel's for the Sunday Jazz Brunch and it was a treat. The food and service were both very good and they have done a terrific job of maintaining the hotels historical status. The great music on top of a good meal in nice surroundings was just icing on the cake. If you get a chance to go to Nathaniel's don't miss it!!
Good food and great service from Judy our server, a great place to eat in Salem. We were late getting in from CT. and had to call twice to postpone our reservation and they were very nice about it. My only comment on a negative is they put apple sauce on top of my pork chop and I can't understand why anyone would do that. The pork chop was cooked perfectly medium rare as I had asked for it and it was incredible! I would eat here again and again, it was just wonderful....
Wonderful service wattress gave us champagne on the house.
Brunch for 8 was very good - getting there was problematic but that is always a risk - Salem, MA in Oct (before Halloween) can be VERY busy with witches etc. Even with the traffic the food was worth it.
We ate breakfast at Nathaniel's. It was very good, service was great and quick. Would recommend checking it out.
The food and service was exceptional. From the chef's complimentary appetizer to the salads and main course, all of the food was delicious. The ginger bread ice cream sandwich was phenomenal. My fiance got the chocolate roulade, and she said it was so rich and extremely delicious. What a great place to celebrate our engagement!
My husband & I went to the Hawthrone Hotel for our 4 year anniversary/ Halloween breakfast & it was delicious. On the hotels website, it says the resturant attire was "business casual". When we showed up, there were people in hoodies & sweatpants having breakfast. I guess the business casual applies just for dinner maybe? But that was our only confusion. Our breakfast was delicious and I would love to visit again.
We stayed at the Hawthorne Hotel and ate at Nathaniel's for breakfast and dinner. Outstanding dinner and best breakfast I have had in a long time. Would recommend it.
My husband and I had a romantic dinner at Nathaniel's a few years ago during a stay in Salem. We decided to return on this trip and we were not disappointed. We started off the evening with a cocktail in The Tavern and then moved to the dining room. We even got the same table we had on the last trip! The ambiance in both places is charming and reminiscent of the way restaurants used to be back in the day. Lots of dark, warm woodwork and indirect lighting. The food was excellent and we both appreciated the option of having a smaller entree portion. The staff was charming and attentive without being obtrusive. We look forward to our next trip to Salem and dinner at Nathaniel's.

There's something to be said about long-lost music finally seeing the light of day. A certain mystery, nostalgia, and, of course, curiosity. Well Johnny Cash fans, prepare yourself, because we have a regular Eddie and the Cruisers situation on our hands. An album Cash recorded in the early 1980s with Billy Sherrill is about to be released. Titled Out Among the Stars, the album was previously shelved by Columbia Records and later reported to have disappeared. As it turns out, Cash and his wife June Carter Cash had hidden the tapes and they were just discovered last year by their son John Carter Cash, who worked with Legacy Recordings to make the new release happen. Out Among the Stars will be released on March 25, 2014.

A new poll from Public Policy Polling has found that Congress is less popular than a wide assortment of unpalatable things.
The poll found that Congress had an abysmal approval rating of 9 percent, but where things really took a bad turn was when PPP compared it to better-known items of wildly unpopular things.
Overall, people preferred root canals, the NFL replacement referees, lice, Nickelback, colonoscopies, political pundits, carnies, traffic jams, cockroaches, France, Genghis Khan, used car salesmen, Brussels sprouts, and even Donald Trump over Congress.

Congressman Allen West: A Very Rare Politician Who Actually Speaks The Truth
Allen West: True Racism Lies Among White Liberals Who Think Black Conservatives Need Approval From Their Masters…
No wonder moonbats hate him with a passion. He speaks the truth.
Via Fox Nation:
"I really feel that it is demeaning to me to think that I need some individual to justify me and my existence. Look, I went through 22 years being in the military, I rose to the rank of Lt. Colonel, I have a bachelor and 2 masters degrees. And for these white liberals to believe they can have this condescending manner toward black conservatives that we need to have approval from our quote unquote, I guess "masters", for us to be able to speak — see that's where the true racism really lies governor is with the white liberals who don't want to see someone such as myself that broke away from their dependency class and is out here and able to possibly contend against them with the policies that they are promoting that's destroying the black community. I know I'm their #1 target and it just emboldens me to speak out even stronger.
And the heck with them if they think someone else needs to approve of me and what I stand for."

Radio Netherlands Worldwide
The effects of climate change are now in the news on an almost daily basis. We hear the opinions of Al Gore or how four-wheel drive vehicles affect the environment. But what kind of consequences will global warming have on Peruvian farmers and Ethiopian children? The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) says they will be disastrous.
Great Britain alone emits more hothouse gasses than Egypt, Nigeria, Pakistan and Vietnam combined. If the average temperature on Earth rises 3 or 4 degrees then the sub-Saharan African countries will lose 26 percent of their harvest. This would lead to a $26 billion loss in income, which is the amount of development assistance these countries received in 2004.g
Dramatic findings
These examples appear in the UNDP's latest report. The
organisation is the first to chart what the effects of global warming
will be for developing countries. The findings show they will be
dramatic. While the wealthy countries produce most of the pollution and
are therefore for the most part responsible for climate change, the
poorest countries will suffer the worst consequences.
Cecilia Ugaz, who does research for the UN, says climate change could erase all progress that has been achieved in the fight against poverty. She points out that more than 2 billion people in the world live under the poverty level.
The UNDP report contains a wealth of studies and statistics which convincingly demonstrate the disastrous consequences of global warming on developing countries. The chance that a resident of a developing country will be affected by a natural disaster is one in 19; for a resident of an industrialised country the chance is one in 1,500. The same applies for difference in their ability to protect themselves. Houses are being built in the Netherlands which can float when there are floods. The Vietnamese authorities provide swimming lessons and hand out lifejackets.
Concrete predictions
Ms Ugaz has made a number of concrete predictions. The rise in sea
level will be disastrous for Bangladesh, where around 11 percent of the
population's homes will be threatened by flooding.
Peru's glaciers have shrunk by 23 percent over the past 30 years. This threatens the many Peruvians whose only source of drinking water comes from the glaciers.
According to the UNDP, Ethiopian children who are born during serious dry spells have a 35 percent greater chance of being undernourished at the age of five. This has consequences for their ability to learn later in life and their chances of finding work.
Call for action
The UN organisation is calling for immediate action. It says
Third World countries should play a central role in the negotiations at
the Bali Climate Change Conference in December. The UNDP will also make
a number of commitments: wealthy countries must decrease their carbon
dioxide emissions by 80 percent, while poor countries will have to
reduce them by 20 percent. Moreover, poor countries will need $86
billion to help protect themselves from the worst effects of climate
change. For instance, they will have to build dykes to defend
themselves from the rising sea level.
Ms Ugaz says that poor countries must also change their prerogatives. If they want their economies to continue to grow they must use new technologies and clean energy.
The UNDP calls on the wealthy countries to change their way of thinking. Ms Ugaz says that if we want to continue to live on this planet we must learn to work together. Children in Ethiopia and villagers in Peru who are not responsible for climate change need the help of people in the industrialised nations. Ms Ugaz says the word solidarity must again become fashionable.

The 2011+ Subaru WRX PERRIN Front Mount Intercooler is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a front mount intercooler for there Subaru. The stock top mount intercoolers can suffer from underhood heat buildup, therefore a front mount is the better choice for those looking for maximum horsepower gains. The PERRIN intercooler core is 28" long x 9.25" tall x 3.5" deep with a volume of 906.5 cu-in. Giving the PERRIN intercooler the best overall design for cooling and pressure drop. The piping is CNC mandrel bent from aluminum tubing for better weight reduction. Every pipe has an over sized beaded end to ensure the hose clamps and couplers stay connected and sealed. The intercoolers end tanks control near perfect dispersal of hot air across the intercooler core. By eliminating any 90º corners adding a smooth, and gradual taper from top to bottom turbulence is eliminated. Each end tank incorporates an innovative mounting tab to secure the core to the mounting beam. Every PERRIN front mount kit includes a coolant overflow tank, which adds clearance for better boost tube routing, holds more coolant than previous designs and uses the OEM tank cap for a great seal. The intercooler core comes in your choice of stealth back or silver. Each kit includes a free PERRIN logo intercooler stencil. Use the stencil to easily paint the PERRIN logo across the front of your intercooler.
***Please note the price you see above is for the core only, use the drop down on the right to add piping and couplers for an additional cost***

Gamescom 2010: Crysis 2 Multiplayer Preview - Invisible War Written Saturday, September 04, 2010 By Dan Webb View author's profile | |
"Be the weapon," is Crysis 2's multiplayer tagline meaning that the Crytek UK developed component of the 2011 title looks to put the power of the Nanosuit at your fingertips. Crytek UK knows a thing or two about multiplayer as well - formerly Free Radical Design - with great multiplayer titles like TimeSplitters under their belts, you'd have thought that the multiplayer aspect is in safe hands. At Gamescom this year, we put two of the maps through their paces to see whether they still had that golden touch. Boasting 6 modes and 12 recognised locations to battle in, Crytek UK are looking to spoil you with choice. Taking part in some team deathmatch, battling against various Crytek UK developers in the UK, we headed to two distinctly different maps: Rooftop Gardens and Impact, to get our multiplayer fix. Rooftop Gardens, which you might have seen if you'd caught the live-stream of the EA press conference, is set on the dizzy heights of one of New York's skyscrapers. With a few interiors, the map mostly takes place outside, with players battling through the greenhouse, ducking in and out of the ceiling fans for cover and on the chopper pad. Impact is a more interesting map and one where the creative juices must have been flowing in the conceptual stage to come up with this. Set mostly indoors, the Impact map exists where two skyscrapers have collided with one another, meaning the level has two totally different looks and feels. The power of the Nanosuit at your fingertips is immediately one of the first things that separates it from any other FPS out there and not only can you run, jump and climb your way around the map, but you can also make use of the cloak and armour aspects of the suit that are frequently used in the single player. Using the cloak may seem like a nightmare waiting to happen as it's generally quite difficult to pick someone out who has it activated. If it wasn't for the shadow - something you can remove with a perk later on in the game - they'd almost be completely invisible - it's not like Halo: Reach here when you can quite easily pick them out. However, that being said, as soon as you pull the trigger, your cloak will disappear and make you visible once again. To balance it out a little, even pulling the trigger once cloaked won't mean you immediately fire bullets, oh no, there is a split second needed first for the suit to deactivate, meaning you're completely vulnerable for a split second. The armour aspect of the suit on the other hand is a tad more straightforward and generally means you can soak up a little more damage. Choosing and coaching yourself when to use them in a match is half of the battle. Like most shooters these days, when you spawn you are given the choice of selecting 5 preset classes which are based on the traditional class bases that we see time and time again - assault, close combat, recon and so on. For those looking to mix it up, there's even the ability to create custom classes as well, so it's all about tailoring your own experience. So yeah, the gameplay… it handles in much the same way as every other shooter on the market does, with responsive controls to boot. With the ability to jump from great heights to ground pound someone into an early grave, the options are there to separate it from the competition, but with the stealth and tank abilities locked to the shoulder buttons (or L1 and R1 on the PS3), it effectively means that stuff like throwing grenades is bloody awkward because your usual grenade buttons are already taken up. In truth, they could do with a bit of work, although with so many abilities and such, it's hard to see a potential solution for that. With 80+ ranks, 20+ suit upgrades - which all have three tiers - 20+ weapons and 140 challenges, it's clear that Crytek UK has really put some thought into creating some reward for those that truly stick the hours in. They've even gone so far as to split the levelling up into three different categories: weapon, armour and stealth, which you're rewarded after the match has finished based upon how much you use each of the skills and rewards you accordingly. For instance, using the cloak ability and sneaking up behind foes to knife them in the back without them knowing will net you serious stealth points. It essentially means that'll you'll level up based upon your play style, although that being said, we were scoring heavily in each category in the post match round-up. It's fair to say that the multiplayer aspect at the moment is a little rough around the edges and with various animation glitches and a distinct lack of anti-aliasing, it's clear that the product is still in a pre-alpha state. Those minor mishaps aside and looking past that it's nowhere near as stunning to look at as the single player aspect, the fundamentals for a deep and solid multiplayer are there. With perks galore, the ability to ground pound foes to your heart's content and some seriously deep progression, the multiplayer currently reeks of potential. Tapping into that potential is now the key and we're hopeful that Crytek UK can build upon that in the coming months to provide another leg for Crysis 2 to stand on. Crysis 2 is now currently scheduled for a spring 2011 release. |

Pros+ Automatic closing system works extremely well+ Feels very sturdy even with extensions+ Gate release mechanism is secure yet simple to use.+ Comes with both pressure mount and screw in mounts+ Gate opens in both directions (in & out)Cons- Lower cross bar can be a tripping hazard - Installation can be tricky if not thought throughInstallationThe instructions that come with gate are simple to follow. However, I think the list of tools for installation should also include a rubber mallet or a hammer. As other reviewers have pointed out removing the lower plastic plugs can be difficult. The way I removed the plugs was to pry out the plugs with a flat head screw driver just a little (as shown in the instructions). I then removed the plug by positioning the head of the screw driver under the exposed lip of the plug and gently tapped it with a rubber mallet (similar motion to chiseling wood). Be sure to use a wide flat head screw driver and tap, don't hammer. My plugs refused to come out only by prying but popped out with little effort when using the screwdriver/mallet method. I also used the rubber mallet to install the extension bars onto the extension plugs. The rest of the installation took all of 5 minutes.UseThe auto close feature of this gate is terrific. The simplicity of the design makes it pretty much fool proof.The latch mechanism is also excellent. Simply unlatch with your thumb, lift, and push or pull. The amount of force to open the gate is mildly stiff but any adult should be able to easily operate this gate. When allowed to slam this gate is quite noisey. If your child is extremely sensitive to noise when sleeping this gate is nearly impossible to close completely silently but the noise is minimal with a little effort.The mounting system and gate feels very solid. Even as an adult I find that yanking on it creates very little flex.

My wife purchased three of these gates. The assembly process requires you to remove four plugs from the corners of the gate, the top two are not an issue, but the bottom two are not the same story. With some prying I was able to the the plugs out of two of the three, but was not able to remove the plugs from the third. Even spraying WD-40 on the plugs was not enough to get them out. It strikes me as odd that these plugs are even located in the gate when you open the box anyways as they could be packaged with the rest of the assembly items. If the manufacturer insists on including them in the gate for shipment, the plug should at least be modified so you can get enough leverage to pull them out. For [$] it should be pretty easy to get together.Can't recommend due to the hassle of assembly.

Comments about Munchkin 1001332 PROTECT Auto Close Metal Gate by Munchkin:
I bought this product when my almost 2 year old broke our wooden gate. So far this gate had held up beautifully, which is saying a lot since he rattles it, and try's to ram it with toys to break thru. The only issue I had with it was the plastic pieces were very difficult to remove to install the extensions.

We bought two of these gates. They are very good quality and easy to install. We thought we'd have to use the hardware mount but the pressure mount is solid.
Excellent gate, with one exception
By Cass mom
from San Antonio TX
We bought two of these gates to use on the stairs, the first was great and super easy to install, the second one we couldn't get the piece out to add the extension to make it fit ( it is supposed to pop out super easy with a screwdriver), ended up having to exchange it. The replacement works great and had no issues, very convinient to use and definately a plus that it gravity shuts itself.

See all my reviews
Great gate for the $$. It is low profile and fits into our decor nicely. It is really easy to use, but kinda tricky to put together. The directional pictures make no sense. It took longer to add the extentions than to install the actual gate. It still is a really nice gate. The only con I can think of is the slamming noise everytime it automatically closes. Sure you can gently close it, but it defeats the purpose of a self-closing gate

The brain is built to multitask, as long as the tasks require different types of perception. Some scientists have proposed that when the brain processes information from any sense, those data are then converted to an abstract code. This "code central" theory helps to explain how we transfer rules learned through one sense to another.
But it also suggests that we should be prone to mixing up information coming in from two senses at once because they would both be reduced to the same code. To test that prediction, Christopher Conway of Indiana University and Morten Christiansen of Cornell University evaluated how well people could discern complex patterns in sequences of objects on a computer screen or sounds played through headphones. The sounds or objects appeared based on two complex sets of invented rules, also known as "grammars."

Ok, so we all love a little frilly bottom, don't we? I was thinking about how babies are having all the fun, and since my baby isn't necessarily a baby anymore, I ought to remedy the lack of frilly bum situation.
Start with some pants that fit your kid like a charm! Use them as a pattern, first using the back (this will be the wider part to accommodate little diaper bottoms),
Then the front, and cut out your pieces about 1/2" from your original pant to allow for seam allowance (this picture is the back of the pants again, just to clarify).
I'd label your back pieces, which is something I didn't do… or you might end up with a nice saggy front. Not like I've ever done that… anyway, put a front and a back piece right sides together, and pin well. I'm using knit here, because comfy is important!
Sew the inseam, or the bottom of the pant to the crotch. Don't sew the whole side! Finish your edges however you like.
Next, match front pieces right sides together and back pieces right sides together. Pin and sew this U-shape.
With a little unfolding magic (it took me a second to figure out what was what! But it is there!), you will be at this point:
Now, ruffle up some fabric! I chose 4 coordinating knits cut at 2". To gather, just sew a long stitch about 1/4" from the edge, and pull on one of the threads while moving the fabric along to gather it up.
Make sure the front of the pants are out of the way. Pin your first ruffle about 2"-3" from the crotch seam, making sure the ruffle extends just slightly from the edges of your pant.
Sew over your gathering stitch using a zig-zag stitch, so a tiny hiney can bend after all the ruffles are sewn.
Continue to pin ruffles and sew them down.
After a few rounds, you will have a cute ruffle bum!
Now, turn the pants so right sides are together again. Pin the pant legs, making sure you catch those ruffles. Sew and finish your edge.
Make an elastic casing at the top, and insert your elastic. I also chose to finish the pant legs with a small hem.
Put them on a little bottom squeal with delight as your little girl toddles around with a frilly bottom!!
Go ahead, make two pairs!
**for these pants, I did three 3" ruffles, which made it look more like a skirt. I'm a bigger fan of the smaller ruffles, but the baby loved this pair just as much! I used t-shirt scraps and other scrap knits (cheap stuff from Hobby Lobby) for both pairs of pants.
***Linking this fun project up to Today's Creative Blog, Blue Cricket, and Sew Much Ado!
Don't forget to enter the giveaway! You'll love a little Eva in your life!

Public Relations and Propaganda Initiatives of Obama's First Year
Rep. Darrell Issa (CA) of the GOP House Oversight Committee has published a report with some damaging information against the Obama Administration. The report covers how the Administration uses campaign-style PR and propaganda to push its policies — using federal funds to promote a political agenda.

"Fraxel AGED and DAMAGED my Skin..."
I looked young for a 30 y/o. Most people thought I was 25. After only one fraxel treatment my skin and face look 15-20 years older. Motivation for this was minor acne scarring. I had beautiful SMOOTH and TIGHT skin but just wanted to even out the shallow mild acne scars. Instead I have SUFFERED greatly (with only 1 treatment): BURNED SEVERELY Fat loss/volume loss!!! Orange peel... more
"Dual fraxel - very good results...."
Had Dual Fraxel 3 15 13 for sun damage, very ugly freckles and uneven skin tone. Now 4 5 13. Very happy with results, 80% better. Fraxel treatment wasn't bad. post treatment was like bad sunburn but didn't need any medications not even tylenol. watching pigement slough off with vinegar soaks was great. So would do again and thank you Dr. Cobos! . Office staff and doctor super nice. very nice... more
"Fraxel Laser - Laser MD Cosmetics -..."
Had my first Fraxel Laser procedure yesterday at Laser MD Commetics in Long Beach, Ca. A couple of nurse friends referred me. The physician performing the procedure is quite competent and has been performing laser for many years. His RN assistant Lisa has taught many physicians around the country how to use lasers. The procedure was well tolerated after the numbing cream. Felt like... more
"Fraxel for Skin Pigmentation and Sun..."
Being 22 I must say I was a bit worried about doing the fraxel, but I am so happy with the results. If you have lighter skin tone with freckles as I do the recovery time does take longer. (my skin stayed pink for longer, six months) but nothing a little makeup can cover. The worst part is having to stay completely out of the sun for six months to a year. It was harder then I imagined it to be.... more
"Lorrie Klein's Office is More..."
I had Fraxel ReStore done by Klein's nurse practitioner in 2009. There were zero side effects, yet learning that a good Fraxel ReStore is supposed to give you puffiness or some swelling, redness, etc. I walked out of the office on all occassions like nothing had happened. Not even slight peeling. I recently found out through another doctor that they must of performed the "light" Fraxel on... more
"Experience Some Brownish Reddish..."
Hello everyone just trying to see if I can get some feed back on my co2 laser treatment... Iv had co2 done two and a half weeks ago I went through where I was bright red to brown than to peeling which I hear it normal but after I was told to start the bleaching cream again after the 7th day noticed it made my face turn red so I was told to minimize the amount. But its been two and a half weeks... more
"Great Bang for the Buck - Seal Beach, CA"
When I go in for fraxel, I go in for a portion of my face. $150 is the cost for treating a cheek from my smile line to my outer cheekbone and my cheekbone down to my jaw. I have had my cheeks treated 3 times each. I've had 150$ worth of my forehead, including between my eyes, once. And a $150 area of my arm, once. The fraxel laser Aesthetic Laser Care (ALC) uses is not Dual, but similar... more
"In Panic Mode Days After Fraxel Dual..."
Im 45 and had fraxel dual March 1. I had had thermage the week before and was very pleased with that procedure. It hurt, but there really was no healing process. I may have been a little pink and puffy but that was for like a day and i could wear makeup no problem. I am ashamed of myself because on a whim i purchases a package which included both treatments. I went to a top dermo office in oc... more
"Had SmartSkin Fraxel 11 Days Ago -..."
I'm 54 years old and wanted to get rid of the lines around and above my mouth. I've always had peaches and cream skin, but was told to do my entire face so the color would match. I also had my chest and neck done because that was the special the plastic surgeon was running in December. Lidocaine was applied to my face for an hour and I was given something to relax. Let me just say... more
"Love my Fraxels! - Laguna Niguel, CA"
My first Fraxel was in March 2009 at the age of 48, and I bought a series of 3 for a discount, and had them nearly 3 months apart. My skin improved each time, not within the first 10 healing days, but defintely after that. After the 3rd, I had beautiful skin. I have had two more since, once each year to update me, on a slightly stronger setting each time, as my skin was obviously able to... more
"Fraxel Re:store - Laguna Niguel, CA"
I am 35 yrs old, with fair skin, freckles and strawberry blond hair (German/Irish background). I decided to get the Fraxel Re:store to help with crows feet and wrinkles around the eyes, and crepey skin/laxity under the eyes. I chose the Fraxel Re:store for the minimal downtime vs the Re:pair (and I thought I would save the stronger Re:pair for when I'm older). I got the "eye... more
"Very Happy with Fraxel Restore - Los..."
My doctor recommended the Fraxel Restore because my skin didn't need anything drastic, just something to help even the tone. Also, I just started getting cystic acne (at my age!) and every time I get a zit, it turns into a scar. So yes, I wanted these new additions to my face to be gone! I was, however, really really concerned about getting Fraxel after reading all of the negative... more
I had theramge the week before so this was a scheduled procedure. The numbing gel worked and best advice, make sure you ask for sun goggles. My face is still warm and swollen, starting to flake and red and blotchy. Luckily my job has flex hours so I can work from home. I'm hoping it gets rid of my sun damage, broken capillaries and blotchy skin tone. I'm very thin skinned with... more
"Innovative - Highly Competent..."
During my initial visit I had Dr. Klein surgically remove a tiny mole on my face. I also inquired about the laser treatment procedures to remove old acne facial scars. Dr. Klein provides the latest in laser technology treatments that are both safe and effective. She has a complete knowledge of the products and services she provides her clients and a customized approach that is designed... more
"I love the fraxel laser - Los..."
I am in my early 40's with an olive complexion and some scarring from acne. Fraxel has reduced (not eliminated) my scarring, it evens out the pigmentation and creates new collagen. I describe it too friends by saying if your skin was like an orange peel, Fraxel would make it more like an apple peel. I find it to be an extremely painful procedure but I have the absolute highest setting on my... more
"Fraxel Re Store - Santa Ana, CA"
I have had the fraxel restore four times for my sun spots. My face still has it with 40% less than the initial. When I returned, the doctor said I have to wait two months for it takes ito affect. So, is the doctor telling the truth or is she conning me? Are the treatment fix the sun spot or melasma disappear? more
"Fraxel Ruined my Skin, Should Be..."
A friend and I made appointment for Fraxel to clear some very minor discoloration of the skin and as pre-treatment for minor fine lines in very early stages. My friend had hyperpigmentation from an old chemical peel in her teens, which had left her with mildly blotchy skin in one area of the cheek. After my first treatment, which was excruciatingly painful, I had good results. The skin... more
"Fraxel Treatment for Acne Scars"
I had fraxel treatment to treat acne scars. I had 2 treatments already and I have seen improvement so far but the scars are still obvious and I would still breakout.I have been hearing good things about the vitalize peel but I'm just wondering if I can go for that after a fraxel treatment? And if so, how soon can I do it after a fraxel? more
"Fraxel Was Really Painful but Good..."
I have had a total of 2 Fraxel treatments. The first time I wasn't prepared for how much it would hurt, and I had to call in sick to work the next day because I looked like a burn victim. The second time I was prepared for redness and the pain so I scheduled the treatment for a Friday. They upped the strength on the second pass and wow was I swollen all weekend! My poor boyfriend had to... more
"Post-Fraxel Restore Healing for Acne..."
I did the treatment to diminish acne scars and improve the texture of my skin. It didn't hurt and I didn't swell, but I seem to be having some issues with the healing process. I had a Fraxel Restore treatment on July 2 of this year. As expected I broke out, but not expected, I remain pink with small points of whitehead acne and small cystic bumps that others on the site have... more
"Dermaplaning After Fraxel Laser -..."
Good so far! Hoping it will only get better in the weeks to come, Painful but not bad. Down time a little longer than the 48 hours but still OK. I had a Fraxel restore treatment on Friday and so far have what seems to be the normal redness/brown skin, white bumps etc. I was thinking of going in this week and having some dermaplaning to help with the exfoliation process. Is... more
"Fraxel Result - Laguna Niguel, CA"
I have had two of four fraxel restore treatments I wanted to reduce some mild acne scarring but mostly wanted to reduce wrinkling and pebbly-type skin on my upper lip. So far I am not seeing a difference of any significance. I had all the typical reactions- red puffiness and the bronzing and peeling afterwards. The acne scars seem slightly better, but not the upper lip wrinkles. more
"Fraxel...Not Sure if It's Worth It"
It has been 1 year since I had 2 (supposed to have 5) treatments of Fraxel. When the skin first peeled off, I was pretty happy with what was underneath. That does change. Even though I lather in sunscreen, and walk around with hat or umbrella. Living in Southern California, there is almost no way to escape some sun exposure, thus I have some new pigmentation problems. Redness, what looks... more
My first Fraxel must have been set at a low setting, and I was happy with the results. The second Fraxel must've been set quite a bit higher, was VERY painful and I swelled up immediately causing me much concern. I thought my skin was going to burst! The second Fraxel destroyed the surface texture and muscle tone under my skin, and I look older than when I went in! When I brought pictures back... more
I had Fraxel done 5 days ago and I'm very pleased. I've read quite a few of the reviews on this website and I'm surprised that more people haven't had as positive an experience as I have, so far. My doctor was awesome. She was very honest about 3 different treatment options, detailing the pros and cons of each and didn't try to sway me one way or another. I decided... more

DMC Sinai-Grace Hospital Breaks Ground on $77 Million Renovation
A new Emergency Department, Intensive Care Units, Radiology Department and lobby will dramatically upgrade care and comfort for DMC Sinai-Grace patients – while also bringing an economic boost to northwest Detroit.
Sinai-Grace, the DMC's largest hospital, has begun construction on a $77 million development that will include:
After more than three years of careful planning and design by teams that included physicians, nurses, patients, architects and construction specialists, the massive renovation will more than double the size of the current ED, expand the hospital's lobby , create a new Radiology Department, and completely overhaul the Intensive Care Unit. The new facility introduces an abundance of natural light and landscaping to help bring the openness of the outdoors inside. Special attention has been giving to way-finding, including the main entrance and ED entrance, which will be a bright beacon to those arriving at the hospital. The "creature comforts" extend into the ED, ICU and radiology department. For example, currently the ED has curtained exam areas. After the renovation is complete, patients will be able to enjoy the privacy of staying in one of 42 new hard-walled rooms. All of the updates are designed to provide patients with more privacy, and allow us to deliver care more efficiently. The comprehensive upgrade –scheduled to be completed by the end of 2015 –is the largest investment in northwest Detroit in nearly a decade, and will create more than 200 full-time construction-related jobs in northwest Detroit. The new emergency facility at DMC Sinai-Grace is part of Vanguard's commitment to Detroit. Vanguard's construction projects for the DMC make up the single largest private investment in the city's history and will total $850 million in capital improvements. Together, we will build a world-class healthcare center in southeast Michigan.

Victory in Europe Day
Victory in Europe Day | |
Date | 8 May |
Next time | 8 May 2014 |
Victory in Europe Day—known as V-E Day or VE Day—was the public holiday celebrated on 8 May 1945 (in Commonwealth countries, 7 May 1945) to mark the date when the World War II Allies formally accepted the unconditional surrender of the armed forces of Nazi Germany and the end of Adolf Hitler's Third Reich, thus ending the war in Europe. The formal surrender of the occupying German forces in the Channel Islands was not until 9 May 1945. On 30 April Hitler committed suicide during the Battle of Berlin, and so the surrender of Germany was authorized by his successor, President of Germany Karl Dönitz. The administration headed by Dönitz was known as the Flensburg government. The act of military surrender was signed on 7 May in Reims, France, and on 8 May in Berlin, Germany.
Upon the defeat of Germany (Italy having already surrendered), celebrations erupted throughout the Western world. From Moscow to Los Angeles, people cheered. In the United Kingdom, more than one million people celebrated in the streets to mark the end of the European part of the war. In London, crowds massed in Trafalgar Square and up The Mall to Buckingham Palace, where King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, accompanied by Prime Minister Winston Churchill, appeared on the balcony of the Palace before the cheering crowds. Princess Elizabeth (the future Queen Elizabeth II) and her sister Princess Margaret were allowed to wander incognito among the crowds and take part in the celebrations.[1]
In the United States, the victory happened on President Harry Truman's 61st birthday.[2] He dedicated the victory to the memory of his predecessor, Franklin D. Roosevelt, who had died of a cerebral hemorrhage less than a month earlier, on 12 April.[3] Flags remained at half-staff for the remainder of the 30-day mourning period.[4][5] Truman said of dedicating the victory to Roosevelt's memory and keeping the flags at half-staff that his only wish was "that Franklin D. Roosevelt had lived to witness this day."[3] Later that day, Truman said that the victory made it his most enjoyable birthday.[2]
Massive celebrations also took place in Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami, and especially in New York City's Times Square.[6]
Soviet Victory Day[edit]
As the Soviet representative in Reims had no authority to sign the German instrument of surrender, the Soviet leadership proposed to consider Reims surrender as a "preliminary" act. The surrender ceremony was repeated in Berlin on May 8, where the instrument of surrender was signed by supreme German military commander Wilhelm Keitel, by Georgy Zhukov and Allied representatives. Since the Soviet Union was to the east of Germany, it was May 9 Moscow Time when the German military surrender became effective, which is why Russia and most of the former Soviet republics commemorate Victory Day on 9 May instead of 8 May.
Commemorative public holidays[edit]
(May 8 unless otherwise stated)
- United Kingdom - 1995 May Day Bank Holiday was moved from the first Monday in May to 8 May, for that year only, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the ending of the Second World War.

The Sainsbury Collection is primarily shown in a gallery known as the Living Area, where modern European art is interspersed with works from across the globe, grouped by geographical region. In 1978 the presentation of ancient world art alongside modern masters was greeted as a revelation today it continues to provide juxtapositions across time and culture that can inspire and surprise.
Robert Sainsbury bought his first sculpture, Jacob Epsteins Baby Asleep, in 1931 or 1932. Epstein was one of many artists in the early 20th century who was passionate about the art of other cultures. Robert and Lisa Sainsbury were to share this passion - their collection is distinguished by friendships with artists, such as Henry Moore and Alberto Giacometti, and their interest in the world art from which those artists drew inspiration.
Robert and Lisa Sainsburys purchases were guided by an instinctive response to sculptural form particularly that of the human figure. They also shared an interest in contemporary painting which is evidenced by works in the Collection by Chaime Soutine, Francis Bacon and Antonio Saura. Lisa Sainsbury developed a passion for studio ceramics, amassing a considerable collection of modern pots which contains bodies of work by Hans Coper, Lucie Rie and Rupert Spira. This collection is now displayed alongside the Sainsbury Collection at the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts.
