Nico Rosberg says F1's reduced downforce was noticeable at Spa on Friday as his W04 lacked the cornering speed of its predecessor.
Ahead of this weekend's Belgian Grand Prix, several drivers spoke about how the rules reducing downforce would have an impact on their performances, highlighting a belief that they would not be able to take Eau Rouge flat-out.
And although Mercedes had the beating of their rivals on Friday, even Rosberg says the lack of downforce was evident.
"We are actually slower this year in the corners than last year - last year we had more grip so the corners felt better," he told ESPNF1.
"But," he added, "relative to the others I'm sure our car feels great here and we're going strong here today.
"Today went according to plan, it was OK.
"It's difficult here because to be quick here you have to run less downforce to be quick on the straights , which means our car is sliding more in the corners and that means it's more difficult to drive and a bit unusual - less grip in general.
"It takes a bit of adapting and finding the right set up, but all in all we are going in the right direction."
The German finished Friday's second practice with a 1:49.793, which put him 0.604s down on his team-mate Lewis Hamilton. Their closest rival, Fernando Alonso, was 0.741s slower than the Brit.
However, Rosberg isn't sure whether Alonso will remain Mercedes' closest challenger.
"I'm not really sure yet," he said when asked about Mercedes' rivals. "It's a bit of a mixture.
"All of a sudden the Red Bulls are quick on the straights in some circumstances which is awkward, so it will be an interesting evening trying to analyse everything and try to nail it for tomorrow, and also getting the compromise right between qualifying and the race."

6 easy steps to delegation perfection
It's hard to initiate task-sharing. But once you do, you'll never go back. Here's how to get started.
1. Evaluate your employees. You'll never let team members take over tasks unless you're confident in their abilities. To learn what they're capable of, review your training programs and make a checklist of the skills they've mastered.
2. Evaluate yourself. Even though the gods of medicine tremble at your healing powers, you're not perfect. Recognize that many people around you are more skilled at client education, blood drawing, bookkeeping, and a host of other common chores.3. Praise staff for trying. Foster an atmosphere that's accepting of team members' stumbles as they learn—never criticize for failing to succeed, only failing to try. Here's a way to do this: Carry poker chips in your pocket and give one to staff members who step in and complete nondoctor tasks when they see you performing them. At month's end, the person with the most chips wins a prize.
4. Write standing orders. List the procedures team members can automatically complete in certain situations, such as fecal exams on pets with diarrhea. Standing orders encourage independence and improve efficiency. Post them on the wall, so you'll be forced to abide by them.
5. Write protocols. Do this for all clinic situations: outpatient visits, surgery, annual exams, and so on. Include who should be where and who's responsible for which tasks—your only tasks should be to diagnose, prescribe, chart, and perform surgery. If the jobs don't flow smoothly, discuss it at a team meeting rather than taking over and doing things yourself.
6. Set deadlines. First, set sacred lunch and leaving times. You'll naturally delegate work to meet them. Add deadlines as you fine-tune the timing for other tasks. The goal is that your friend or spouse could call at any time of day and you'll be able to say when you're leaving—and then do so.

This is my absolute, favorite mascara. I've been using it for years and although I love to venture out, I would say nothing compares. I have long lashes so I feel like the small spikes on the actual applicator gives me control of covering all my lashes. It gives amazing volume.
Great everyday mascara. Separates very well for a slightly amped up natural look.
By far one of the best mascaras I've ever had for length. I've tried everything from Lancôme, Chanel, Dior, Benefit, the falsies, the rocket, and I've never been as impressed with a mascara..and in one use!. I don't have to build up with this as much as other mascaras. It adds length right off the bat, without clumps..to my insanely short
Lashes. The only thing I don't like about this stuff, is that it stays on your eyelids forever! No matter what I use to get it off, I still have reminants of it a day or so later. It's still so much better than original lashblast.
2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
One of my favourite mascaras. Makes lashes volumised and fluttery.
I love this mascara it gives me a really lengthening effect, it doesn't gives that much volume but I'm OKAY with that. I love the wand it was a little bit scary because it's bigger than normal wands but I love that it holds a curl ALL DAY long, there's no need to apply it again throughout the day.
So I'll definitely will change my Million lashes L'oreal mascara for this one. The price is more accessible and it's worth it.
I wanted this mascara to work. I really did. I'm not sure if it is because I bought the black/brown version of it, but I seem to have had a very different experience to most of the reviewers here :(
From the get-go this mascara didn't work for me. The main, major issue was the flaking. I would put it on before uni and come back home 3 hours later and I would have flakes of mascara below my eyes, and on my eyelid.
Also, it didn't clump the lashes together (one thing which I really enjoyed about it) and was very good at coating them all separately. However, I would get clumps on the individual lashes which made it very noticeable that I was wearing mascara.
I persevered for about 2 months, hoping that it would get better, but unfortunately now (in addition to the above issues), the mascara in the tube has become very thick which is resulting in an even worse application.
Because of these issues, sadly I won't be buying it again. A positive though, is the black/brown colour. Often with black/brown mascaras, I've found them to be too black which looks incredibly harsh on me in the daytime. That is part of the reason why I'm so sad that this mascara didn't work for me - the colour is great.
But because of the flaking and the clumping, I've given this mascara a rating of 2/5 as these issues do make it rather unwearable for me : (

I have bought this mascara so many times by now that i have lost count. I always thought the big brush would be annoying but i absolutely love it! It doesn't clump my lashes and it stays on all day without flacking on me!
Pro: Holds the curl really well
a true waterproof mascara
Con: Doesn't give length or volume
Not easy to remove
LashBlast is so popular in the makeup community, it's almost redundant to write a review on it. But I digress; the original LashBlast is designed to simply volumize the lashes-it doesn't promise much else. Simple claims, simple standards to meet. And while I wasn't awestruck by the volume the mascara gave me, it did it's job well, and wore nonstop for over 12 hours, looking flawless by the time I removed it.
The shade I got was "brown," which is a little misleading. On the lashes, it does not look brown at all, but more of a rich, soft black. I did not have problems with the brush, because I have larger eyes, but I imagine people with smaller eyes may find the length of the wand annoying to use. The spikes on the wand are good at separating the lashes and loading on color.
It's cheap ($9 USD) and works well for what it intends to do. Personally, I like to use it best as a base to use a lengthening mascara over top of it. On it's own, it does well enough, but unfortunately it's nothing impressive.

This mascara doesn't clump or flake. It gives my lashes a lot of length and volume, but not as much as the Clump Crusher mascara. People even asked if I was wearing fake eyelashes! I did have to add lots of coats though to achieve it, though, and I wish it held a curl better. I also don't like how big the brush is, but I got used to it. I love how it's easy to remove. This is my 3rd tube. Great price too!

December 19, 2014
MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) - Justine Henin has been granted a wild card entry to the Australian Open in what she is targeting as her comeback to Grand Slam tennis.
Henin, who won the 2004 Australian Open among her seven major singles titles, announced last month she was returning to the women's tour after more than a year in retirement.
The Australian Open has up to 12 wild cards to issue in each of the men's and women's 128-player draws.
Henin will not have a protected ranking when she returns to the tour and so will need to get wild card entries or enter qualifying to get places in the main draw. She announced her comeback soon after fellow Belgian Kim Clijsters won the U.S. Open, only three tournaments into her own comeback from retirement.

Hi all,
I'm trying to style a h2 that's also a link ('a') in a class called .post.
Having attempted to inform myself from various sources, I had fondly imagined that the following might work:
Naturally, it doesn't, so would a kindly soul perhaps care to point out my errors?
I can style the h2 in .post on its own which works in FF but but not in IE.
Ha ha, no worries, I'm sorted.
Stupid mistake in markup.
hehe awesome :) well done :)

Jan. 22 (Bloomberg) -- Saudi Arabia's market regulator amended rules to allow foreign issuers to list securities on the local bourse, according to a statement posted on the Capital Market Authority's website.
"A foreign issuer whose securities are listed in another regulated exchange may apply for its securities to be registered and admitted to listing," according to the statement. "The Authority may admit the securities to listing provided that, in the Authority's opinion, the listing rules applicable in the foreign issuer's jurisdiction of listing are at least equivalent to these rules."

Sequester socks Head Start
Preschool programs in Greater Waterbury, Litchfield County brace for impact
|Family advocate Fatima Garcia helps Chef Combo teach Head Start and special education preschoolers in Naugatuck that healthy food creates strong muscles. From left, preschoolers Kaitlyn Jean-Baptiste, Lilah Niklewski and Gabriella Cordero participate. RA Archive
Federally funded Head Start preschool programs have been ordered to cut about 5 percent out of their budgets as a series of automatic reductions known as sequestration take effect.
The cut translates to a loss of nearly $119,000 from Head Start programs throughout Litchfield County, said Kathi Bleacher, the county's director of Head Start and Early Head Start.

The room was clean. Internet and cable were really good.
The neighborhood was less then ideal. Would not want my family staying there. I feared for the safety of my vehicle and my possessions inside it.
You get what you pay for. The staff tried for what they have to work with.
Light bulb was out in our room, fridge was warmer than the room, didn't have a shower curtain, carpet felt a little damp and the only blanket on the bed was the thin cigarette burned bed spread.
nothing about this hotel deserves a compliment
The beds were pure torture. Our room did not have any towels or wash cloths when we checked in, and on day 2 had to track down the maids mid afternoon to get towels. Coffee pot did not work, no ironing board, remote for tv did not work, and prices were raised for busy weekend. Not a good deal.
Pool and outdoor seating area.
The staff person was helpful, friendly and competent. After I complained about being assigned to a room that smelled badly of cigarette smoke, she assigned me to another room and called later to make sure that I was satisfied.
Easy checkout
Very noisy. Prostitutes coming and going all night long. Showers in other rooms sound like they are in your room (loud) and are on and off all night long. No sleep. Towels felt like sandpaper.
Terrific location, great value, large updated room.
Nice water pressure in the shower. No bathtub just a shower stall.
The free breakfast was ok bit that was expected when you don't pay much for the room.
Squiking ceiling. I was on the 1st floor. Hollow walls. Groutsy manager.
Very clean, somewhat new renovation with lots of room amenities. Building much nicer on the inside than on the outside. Very close to Interstate but still quiet. Multiple TV channels, including HBO but not Showtime. Free WiFi. Shower heat lamp very nice.
Hard to find.
The room was great. Noisey refrigerator loved it had a kitchen.
Location. And free breakfast is a bowl of too ripe fruit and prepackaged sweet rolls.
Hallway smelled old and smokey
fit the price
smell in the room

The compost cookie, a chunky chocolate-chip cookie studded with crunchy salty pretzels and coffee grounds; the crack pie, a sugary-buttery confection as craveable as the name implies; the cereal milk ice cream, made from everyone's favorite part of a nutritious breakfast—the milk at the bottom of a bowl of cereal; the easy layer cakes that forgo fancy frosting in favor of unfinished edges that hint at the yumminess inside.Momofuku Milk Bar finally shares the recipes for these now-legendary riffs on childhood flavors and down-home classics—all essentially derived from ten mother recipes—along with the compelling narrative of the unlikely beginnings of this quirky bakery's success. It all started one day when Momofuku founder David Chang asked Christina to make a dessert for dinner that night. Just like that, the pastry program at Momofuku began, and Christina's playful desserts helped the restaurants earn praise from the New York Times and the Michelin Guide and led to the opening of Milk Bar, which now draws fans from around the country and the world.With all the recipes for the bakery's most beloved desserts—along with ones for savory baked goods that take a page from Chang's Asian-flavored cuisine, such as Kimchi Croissants with Blue Cheese—and 100 color photographs, Momofuku Milk Bar makes baking irresistible off-beat treats at home both foolproof and fun. Amazon.com Review Featured Recipe: Corn Cookies Yield 13 to 15 cookies 16 tablespoons or 2 sticks (225 g) butter, at room temperature 1-1/2 cups (300 g) sugar 1 egg 1-1⁄3 cups (225 g) flour 1/4 cup (45 g) corn flour 2/3 cup (65 g) freeze-dried corn powder 3/4 teaspoon (3 g) baking powder 1/4 teaspoon (1.5 g) baking soda 1-1/2 teaspoons (6 g) kosher salt Combine the butter and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and cream together on medium-high for 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, add the egg, and beat for 7 to 8 minutes. Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the flour, corn flour, corn powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix just until the dough comes together, no longer than 1 minute. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Using a 2 3/4-ounce ice cream scoop (or a 1⁄3-cup measure), portion out the dough onto a parchment-lined sheet pan. Pat the tops of the cookie dough domes flat. Wrap the sheet pan tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 1 week. Do not bake your cookies from room temperature--they will not bake properly. Heat the oven to 350°F. Arrange the chilled dough a minimum of 4 inches apart on parchment- or Silpat-lined sheet pans. Bake for 18 minutes. The cookies will puff, crackle, and spread. After 18 minutes, they should be faintly browned on the edges yet still bright yellow in the center; give them an extra minute if not. Cool the cookies completely on the sheet pans before transferring to a plate or to an airtight container for storage. At room temp, the cookies will keep fresh for 5 days; in the freezer, they will keep for 1 month. CERTAIN CONTENT THAT APPEARS ON THIS SITE COMES FROM AMAZON SERVICES LLC.

Fastpass+ is stressful!!!
Find a Conversation
|Thu, 10-17-2013 - 10:08pm
I have been checking the "My Disney Experience" app and site daily to see if we are eligible for magic bands and Fastpass+ and we finally are! However trying to plan Fastpass attractions and times is actually much more stressful than I expected! I am thinking to Fastpass attractions in the afternoon/evening when things might be busier than at rope drop on days I don't anticipate a struggle in the AM and then in the AM for days I think we will sleep in a bit... I have only attempted the first day so far and have changed it five times already!!!!
Any advice or tips? M'Shel, did you/will you use Fastpass+
|Fri, 10-18-2013 - 12:12am
Oh, boy, Melissa! I can understand the stress. As exciting as it is to be able to use the FP+ (and I'm sooo happy that you can!! Cool about the Magic Bands and all!!) - I can see second guessing myself. From my understanding you should also be able to change your FPs even while you're at the parks, if you'd like, is that right? I agree with the reasoning you have of getting FPs for busy afternoons or lazy mornings - makes sense to me.
I was listening to the Passporter Moms Podcast and they were talking about using the My Disney Experience for their trip that they're on on right now. They had a hard time coordinating FP+ times with each other, even though they are traveling as a group. They had some complaints about the overall system - I guess Disney is still working out the bugs. Are you finding it difficult b/c you've been changing your mind or b/c the system isn't easy to work with?
|Fri, 10-18-2013 - 7:05am
The site is not giving me too much trouble. It is a little slow when you make changes and a little tough to get times you are looking for but overall it is ok. It lets you know if a Fastpass time interferes with dining which is helpful. I had a little trouble making reservations for rides that only two of us will ride but I did figure it out. It also seems like there are many new attractions with Fastpass now which may be throwing me off as well...I don't remember there being Fastpass at Nemo, Figment, Playhouse Disney, Magic Carpets... Although on the flip side I did Fastpass Fantasmic so maybe we will finally get to see that! As for making changes while there, the site says you can as long as Fastpass+ times are available so it seems that there are a different number of + passes available vs those in the park.
I found some parks easier than others to figure out what we wanted... Epcot was easy (Soarin, Test Track, and Mission Space) but I still haven't figured out day one in Magic Kingdom yet!

The Fastpass for Fantasmic requires you to arrive between 5:55 and 6:15 for a 6:30 show... I am hoping it lets us skip the line because I find that daunting with little kids! I read a review of wishes Fastpass and it seemed as though a roped area was used but the reviewer felt it could get very crowded! We avoid fireworks but I looked for the option and it was not there for me... Neither was the Fastpass for Be Our Guest lunch :( and that one I desperately wanted!!!

Oh, I feel your pain and I'm not even there yet... looking toward our 60 days with both excitement and dread, lol! I was thinking of basically the same strategy that you mentioned, but I've already changed (and changed back again) our ADRs several times, I can't even imagine what adding FP times is going to do!
I was thinking originally that they said a certain percentage would be held back for day-before or same-day reservations, but I can't remember... I'm hoping that's the case because I see us doing a lot of last-minute changing, lol!
|Wed, 10-30-2013 - 8:55pm
It was VERY hard choosing for me, too! However, one night we got in around 10 and knew that we couldn't be ready for EMH at 8 am the next day, so I switched DHS with MK. That meant that I had to switch FP+ too! However, I didn't have a problem getting what I wanted, but it was time consuming.
Here's one thing I found. One morning we were in the park and had used our first FP+. I decided (based on low wait times) that we didn't need a FP for one of our attractions that we had FP+ for, so I went to my smartphone to change it. Nope. Once you've used the first one, you can't change the rest of them (apparently). That was a little discouraging.
And like you said, it's difficult to choose. I also made the mistake of getting mine too close in time which seemed like a good idea at the time. However, I hadn't thought about us not wanting to criss cross the park! But we did it so that we didn't waste our FP's. I also discovered that there's a little leeway if you're late. Our first night, our plane was late, and it took FOREVER to check in at POR. So we were an hour later getting to Epcot than I had planned. We totally missed the first FP attraction and were 15 minutes late for Soarin'. I decided to beg . I went to the desk and explained about our lateness, and the CM said that we were ok because we were within the leeway time (forgot the word she used). Well, we took advantage of that at least 2 more times! It was so crowded, too, that it took longer to do anything.
One thing I didn't try was to get a regular FP. I thought of it one day, but I didn't have our tickets with us (only MagicBands), so I wasn't able to do it. And at least one attraction (sorry, can't remember which!) had already taken out their FP machines. It looks like eventually you will HAVE to do everything online since I believe the machines will all be a thing of the past in the future. It's different, that's for sure LOL!
|Thu, 10-31-2013 - 11:50pm
Oooo, I had not read that you could not change your FP times if you already used the first one...that's good to know! And, I booked most of mine as close together as Disney would allow...I wonder if that is a bad idea...i am sure we move slower than you and your daughter do, M'Shel!
I am getting excited to see how I like it! A friend was there in mid October and LOVED the bands/Fastpass+, I wonder if I will feel the same.
|Fri, 11-01-2013 - 9:54am
Melissa, I didn't ASK anyone if that's the way it worked, but that was my experience (it wouldn't let me change). I had heard that there would be plenty of people hanging around with iPads to help you. I never saw anyone like that. And the one person standing at the Fastpass+ "stands" (wish I'd taken a picture of them), didn't seem to know much. Like when I asked if I could use my hard ticket to get a regular FP, he said he thought I could. Well, I would have preferred a definite answer lol!

Orientation Ride Schedule:
Orientation Rides will be held every Saturday and Sunday August 2 through Sept 21.
Meet at 8:00am, ride at 8:15am from The Bikery:
7556 Van Buren Road
Baldwinsville, NY
Rides will be 20-25 miles. Please arrive early to check in and get prepared to leave promptly at 8:15.
Orientation Rides are mandatory for NEW riders. All participants that are new to the RIDE must attend 2. Please plan on attending at least 2. These rides are designed to prepare you for paced, group cycling. Endurance training should be done on your own time using the suggested training guide below.
So, you have decided, or are thinking about participating in the 2014 Syracuse Ride for Missing Children September 26th, but you may not be sure if you are prepared.
First, relax! This is not a difficult Century ride. The ride makes a lot of stops, has a lot of support, and best of all, the 2014 route is relatively flat.
. Our promise is that what you gain in personal fitness will only be overshadowed by the positive experience you will get by your contribution to helping spread the child safety awareness and by providing financial support that benefits the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children\New York Branch.
First, your fitness: You are the only person that really knows how fit you are. Please be sure that if you feel it is necessary, discuss your fitness level with your Doctor. This guide assumes that you are in reasonable fitness and you know how to ride a bike etc., but you may not have been riding all that much lately or may have never ridden in a ride of this distance (approximately 100 miles).
Cycling Training Guide
Second, your bike/equipment: The Syracuse Ride for Missing Children has the terrific appreciation towards The Bikery VanBuren Rd. in Baldwinsville and Syracuse Bicycle for their support of this ride and we highly encourage you to contact them regarding any equipment need you may have prior to the ride.
Here are a few things to think about:
Equipment Tips:
• Helmet: Wearing a helmet is mandatory to participate in the Ride for Missing Children, but it is not necessary to spend a great deal of money on one. All helmets commercially available must meet the same crash safety standards, so your choice should be determined by comfort, preferred style and/or budget. Both Syracuse Bicycle and The Bikery will have a large selection to pick from if you do not currently own one.
• Gloves: Recommended. They help prevent fatigue, and if you happen to fall over, they become significant in value.
• Shorts: Some people are rather tough and can ride in just about anything. Our recommendation is to look at a pair of cycling shorts in the $50-100.00 price range for optimum comfort.
• Shoes: Cycling shoes are simply better since they are designed for cycling. We recommend a quality road shoe combined with a clip in pedal system.
• Socks: A quality wicking cycling sock is best.
• Jersey: If this is your first ride, we will give you one.
• Foul Weather: Say it isn't so! But just in case, a suitable cycling rain jacket, pants and overshoes will make life a lot easier.
Bike Tips:
• Bike: A road bike is highly recommended. The technological evolution of cycling continues to make the sport more and more enjoyable. If your bike is old (over 10-15 years), take the time and go and test ride a new bike and talk to local riders, clubs or participate in a Ride for Missing Children (RFMC) Orientation Ride and we can offer suggestions. Triathlon specific bikes and fixed gear bikes are not allowed.
• Position or bike fit: Call your preferred bike shop, cycling club, or participate in a RFMC Orientation Ride and have your fit evaluated. In general, the road bike position when properly fitted (but perhaps with a slightly elevated handle bar) is best for long rides.
• Saddle: There has been some terrific advancement in saddles in the last few years. If yours is not comfortable (and you already wear good shorts) the best thing you can do is to talk to your favorite bike shop and see what they have and try a few different saddles out. Saddle comfort is key to an enjoyable ride.
• Tires: A good quality tire with a Kevlar layer is best. Keep the pressure near the maximum that it is rated for, but not in excess of 120 psi (they roll faster when hard but they will make the ride more harsh).

Swine flu: Will U.S. media tell us the whole truth?
Swine flu virus (CDC)
The Associated Press, as published in the LA Times, looks at the possible connection between swine flu and the corporate pig farm called La Gloria in Veracruz, Mexico. This thoughtful article does a good job of explaining how difficult it can be to trace the origin of this new flu strain. However, as a journalist myself, I am as interested in what is left out as what's left in.
Glaringly absent is any reference to the connection between La Gloria and Smithfield, the U.S. corporation that dominates the production of so much of the pork we eat. According to the Times Online (United Kingdom), Granjas Carroll in Mexico owns La Gloria, and Smithfield owns part of Granjas Carroll. Leaving those facts out of the story - and the fact that the Mexican farm produces almost a million pigs a year - means the AP provides no analysis of any corporate responsibility for outsourcing pig production to huge factory farms in countries like Mexico where environmental and labor laws do not match ours and where enforcement of their relatively feeble laws is often lacking.
The Times Online (United Kingdom) may have gone too far in headlining its story as directly linking this new flu strain to the manure lagoons at La Gloria, but it also gives much-needed context to the problems of industrial ag. Why isn't the press in the United States as willing to tackle this issue of corporate responsibility? Too much lapdog, not enough watchdog?
Newspapers across the country are begging for our sympathy, arguing that we must save them from financial ruin because of the crucial role they play in keeping government honest. But it is that narrowness of focus - always on government, never the corporations - that is part of the reason that people like me don't trust them. U.S. news organizations are quick to investigate the mayor with his hand in the till but not the companies robbing us blind legally. Why is the AP telling us only part of the story? I would be interested in knowing what the editors took out.
UPDATE: The AP is now reporting that the Centers for Disease Control has confirmed that genes that part of the new swine flu virus habe been circulating in pigs for at least a decade. The article says that the team investigating the origins of this new flu strain warn that pig populations should therefore be monitored more closely. Another good reason that the U.S. press should do a better job of watchdogging corporate agriculture.
Still, I wouldn't press the panic button just yet. Nutrition and sanitation have greatly improved since 1918.
But your general point is well taken, that all too often the media act as lapdogs for the giant corporations, rather than watchdogs.
I agree that some oversight needs to be done. Really, we should do away with these factory farms, but sadly, the money makers will never allow this.
No reason except modern medicine, better communication, and the CDC. I'm not saying it could never happen, but in 1918 things were much different: there were no flu vaccines, there wasn't an internet or 24 hour news stations to warn people and to help doctors connect the links of how the disease was spreading and therefore take preventative action. Then again, worldwide air travel is a factor now so a virus could spread much more rapidly. Let's hope the positives outweigh the negatives.
some posts on swine flu in my blog. how about the bombshell element that maybe aspects of it were mfg'd in a lab?
I dont see how the usa gets away with not claiming
responsibility for the Swine Flue. It can be pretty easily
traced, in electromagnetic evidence,
to the sources...but we do nothing about it, yre right
becuz its just a story in the paper,
which focuses on govt doings,
not corporate doings....until the corporation spills
bad taste over us all....like a drug ugly uncle
here for the holidays...
we give him our labor,
we Common Man,
and he shits in our living room and
expects us to clean it up
if hes comin to visit today...
the shit hit the fan when the corporations crumbled and
the system shook and it broke
into a thousand million billion private affairs
feudal rules are in force...tha t means
as it always has at these "feudal" shifts in the
historical fabric..
the brotherhood, or the sister and brother-hood...get the brotherhoods together...the meeting of the Tribes..
Roomey the Arab Philosopher said:
"at the tiem of the last dance,
when the tribes come to see
the way to be free...
at that time, rejoice, and
not before...fot it is pre
mature rejoicing that they willalways use against ya
and lock ya up
in the "manacles of yr mind"....amen jim
Wired reported on 1 May that H1N1 was linked to US industrial pig farming and a virus identified in 1998. See my April commentary at Newsvine.
This is not due to close proximity to the animals. Dog owners are constantly getting kissed by their dogs. If these diseases were a natural progression, humans and dogs (and cats) would be passing diseases around left and right.

European route E134
|Highway system
|International E-road network
European highway E 134 goes through Norway, eastwards from Haugesund, over the Hardangervidda mountain plateau. With the highest point at 1085 meters above sea level, the road is sensitive to snow conditions and foul weather during the winter season, during which the mountainous sections may be closed in short periods. The part of the mountain is called Haukelifjell, to not confuse drivers with Rv. (state road) 7 which is further north. The road ends at Drammen near Oslo.
All places are in Norway.
- Haugesund
- Tysvær
- Vindafjord
- Etne
- Odda
- Vinje
- Haukeligrend, connects to Norwegian National Road 9
- Åmot
- Tokke
- Kviteseid
- Seljord
- Hjartdal
- Notodden
- Kongsberg
- Øvre Eiker
- Nedre Eiker
- Drammen, connects to E 18
A road over the mountain along this route was opened first time in 1889. In 1968 the Haukeli tunnel (5.6 km (3.5 mi)) was opened allowing reliable winter time traffic.
The road was European route 76 before 1992, when the numbering system of European routes in the Nordic countries was revised. To begin with, there was not room for it in the system, and road became state route Rv. 11. Due to local wishes and steadily increasing of the road standard, from the end of the 1990s, it again received European route status, with the number E 134.
The route has many tunnels, especially in the mountainous sections, and also in the western part, along the fjord Åkrafjorden, where is passes the Langfossen water fall. In sum their length is 27 km (17 mi), the longest being 7.4 km (4.6 mi). Before the tunnels, some of the fjord sections of the road were quite steep and very narrow; around 5 metres (16 ft). This was far from the 8.5 metre minimum requirement of European routes, and below the minimum requirement to allow two trucks to pass.
Places of interest[edit]
- Stave church in Heddal
- Silvermine in Kongsberg
- Skimuseum in Morgedal
- Old Hotel Haukeliseter
- Stave church in Røldal
Useful words for the road condition reports[edit]
- Haukelifjell = The main mountain pass on E 134
- Midlertidig stengt = Temporarily closed
- Kolonnekjøring = Driving in line after a snow plough truck only.
- Nattestengt = Closed by night
- Vegarbeid = Road work
- Kjøreforhold = Driving conditions
- Snø / snødekke = Snowy road
- Is / isdekke = Icy road
- Glatt = Slippery
- Bart = Bare road
- Vått = Wet road
- Fare for elg = Watch out for moose

Short answer...time is the glue
Hey I like that..
Terse and powerful, to the point!
Only work moves time. You work so hard you fall into bed and sleep.The slumber of forgetfulness till dawn but each day pain will get less
sometimes what has been said and done cannot be un-said or un-done.

all one can ever do is move forward, to the next great adventure =)
lol u never kno bro - mine has me back where i was 2 and 3 decades ago rekindling old friendships and relationships. it is a wild ride for sure!! =)
a broken heart can never be put back together,it is the most horrific pain i ever had to endure-------but life has to go on------one minute,one hour one day,one year at a time-----i am an unhappy survivor-----------
tyvm,but its my job--------
It's like the death of the dream, what could have been, so you need to grieve for it and that takes time.
i can not answer, but my comment is, when i am broke, people think i am weak, and when i superglue my heart back, people say i am heartless.
if you have a concrete example, i will help. message me.
Cause time takes too long.
Because you still have some deep feelings for the person.
Because it's love that the heart needs to make it whole again, and when it was love that broke it in the first place, it's harder to find love to put it back together.
Hearts are fragile things but sometimes it takes something to stitch it back into place, let it be a friend, hope, intervention or occurrence.
What happened?
Sounds like you're not using enough duck tape! lol

but in all seriousness, time is the best healer and it will never be completely healed. everytime your heart breaks a few little pieces go missing. I hope you feel better. keep your chin up :)
oh yeah! i forgot about gorilla tape... yupp that should work ;)
The more of yourself you pour into that other person, the harder it is to take what they poured into you out.
The suckiest part is it takes a long time sometimes.
People think that they are their body, mind, and emotions. They have yet to discover their true self. Broken hearts are an illusion. The whole cosmos is your heart if you expand your feeling consciousness. Limited attachments once broken cannot be put back together. Whatever you loose in the physical cosmos, will be returned to you in expanded awareness of the infinite through meditation and prayer.
Yeah...it's a process and you need to stick with it like training a child.

Windows 7 Professional 64 bit
Resizing browser issue
I saw some old threads about this issue, but I thought I'd post to see if anyone else had this problem.
I usually have my browser windows shrunk down to about a third the size of the screen, then I leave it open that way while I use other programs.
Fairly often after that window has been idle for awhile,
I'll click the box in between the underscore and the X, but then the window seems to freeze for a moment.
This happens in IE & Outlook & unfortunately the most trouble is with Google especially in an app my company built in house. It usually corrects itself except in this Google app. Unfortunately, so far our IT hasn't been able to reproduce the error. They've asked me to find bugs, but after finding this one; no solution so far.
Any ideas are welcome.
I am looking to Google forums, but since it happened in Microsoft products too & other folks have had the problem before, I'm hoping for some advice or patch, etc.

Welcome to Sevenforum ThanGam6,
Is there any difference if you use the F11 key instead of the Maximize button,
Just left click to regain focus to the window and press F11.
Or you can use 3-d flip,

According to Scott Coker, Viacom is serious about investing in MMA and is prepared to show that by making a strong run at soon-to-be free agent Brock Lesnar.

Burton Poacher Insulated Pant - Men's - 09/10
Great Pants
I have worn these 3 times since i bought them a month ago and really like them. The pockets kept all my stuff dry on long sessions. They are big in the waist on me because im 6 3 and 195 pounds with a 32 waist but the adjustable belt works really well. I had to get the Large because of my height. They are extremely comfortable on those long days on the mountain
