Looks like the red button with her is her diseased vagina. What a shame.
Wow, he was even trying to fight back too. This is going to haunt him into retirement.
The only time I take my shirt off to a girl is for a whole different type of bangin.
Don't worry kid, she'll get what's coming to her the next 27 years while married to her husband Igor.
Guy beats girl after scooter accident, angy bystanders beat him up.
We're not sure what this is all about but I think he's pissed that he wasn't the prettiest one in the house.
At first I thought he was mucking around, but then the head stomps sort of changed my mind.
If only she was wearing a perfume that smelled like a 9-5 job. That would have made the instigator back off instantly.
What a douchebag, looking around if nobody sees him do it.
I think under his breath he was saying "I can't hit a woman, can't hit a woman..."
wheres a feminist when you need one...
Apparently you shouldn't be jumping into bed with guys who date Floyd fucking Mayweather.
This can't be good for street cred.
Try doing that with me in the elevator. I'd rip his head off.
He shows her who's boss in this relationship.
I'm not sure but I think this was how I was conceived.
I wonder how many vienna sausages you could fit into this douchebag's vagina? It's gotta be at least 37.
Thank christ the perp was not in a wheelchair or the cop would have had to pull the pumpaction out and shoot him.
Pimps are all the same, anywhere you go.
Ridiculous jew beats up family with kids.

Need a trainer!
Need a trainer!
I have been working out for 3 years and have taken a variety of supplements (anabolics, pro hormones, etc.) Anyways, I am at a point where I have purchased about $250 of different supplements like Lean FX, Phedarine, Anabolic pump, etc and I need someone to help me create a training program for it (when to take the pills, which ones to take, days to train, food suggestions etc.) Would anyone be interested in working with me maybe through the forums or PM/email?
I want to learn as much as I can about this stuff and I want to do it RIGHT. I've done a fair amount of research (mostly from looking at all the forums on here) and feel like I have an edge to most people (not compared to the people on this site!!) but to most people in the gym and outside the fourms SO I am somewhat an "advanced" novice in all this stuff.
Dieting tips, stacking, vitamin help, etc I have questions on. I will need someone with a lot of patience because I ask a lot of questions. Thanks. I thought this would be the right place to come to to ask training and such on. - 12-21-2008, 06:30 PM
Well unfortuately I have used none of these products, but I can list you adaptogens as well as foods to help you lose weight and gain energy.
Foods to avoid, too much dairy(milk, cheese, cream cheese, etc.), white rice, bleached flour,starchy based foods, juices with added sugar, soda, margarine, beef, candy, regular white sugar, fast food,hot dogs, processed food, canned vegetables or canned food in period, alcohol, foods high in sodium.
Foods that are beneficial: Quinoa oats(superfood), sprouted grain bread, albacore tuna in moderation(due to mercury), chicken breast, real turkey breast in moderation(due to sodium content), broccoli, asparagus, celery, spinach, banannas(day-time because of it natural high sugar content), berries, flax seed oil or flax seeds, wheat germ, grapefruit, organic cookies for snacks(at least ones that only use cane sugar), organic fruits and vegetables are always recomended, almond milk, black rice(great stuff), beans are a great source of protein and amino acids(especially pinto beans, and plenty of water.
As for your workout, hit me a pm, and maybe we can work something.doing my own thang! - 12-21-2008, 06:35 PM

have a budwieser pre workout shake and see where all your strength goes...
Seriously, i agree with andrew for the most part, but milk is not a bad thing at all. sure, it contains some cholesterol and some fat, but we need these things, Milk is loaded with protien, calcium, vitamin D and all sorts of things that are beneficial. i couldnt imagine cutting out the cottage cheese, i eat mounds of 2%fat cottage cheese right before bed, every night with egg whites. - 12-22-2008, 12:01 AM

Description This is a continuation application of International Application PCT/EP2006/050530, filed Jan. 30, 2006, which claims priority to DE 10 2005 005 017.4, filed Feb. 3, 2005, which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. Monitoring blood glucose concentration is an essential part of the daily routine for diabetics. Blood glucose concentration must be determined rapidly and with ease several times daily in order to take appropriate medical measurements. In order to not restrict the daily routine of the diabetic more than necessary, mobile devices which are space-saving and simple to handle are used so that blood glucose concentration can be determined at any time. Measurement of blood glucose concentration essentially requires two procedural steps. First, a liquid sample is generally produced by perforating the skin of the patient by means of a so-called lancet system, e.g., with the aid of a lancet needle driven by a spring system to generate a drop of blood. A blood quantity of 1.5 μL (or sometimes below 1 μL) is generally sufficient for modern measurement systems. Such lancet systems and lancing aids are known in the art and are commercially available in various embodiments. Such lancet systems are described, for example, in Publication Nos. DE 10 302 501 and DE 10 047 419. Lancing aids with magazine systems for holding and dispensing several lancets are also disclosed in these documents. Second, the blood sample generated is then analyzed for blood glucose concentration. Diagnostic methods are usually used for this step and employ optical or electrochemical measuring methods. For example, a frequently used measuring method utilizes a special type of electrochemical test strip which can be designed such that a specified amount of blood is guided by a capillary system to an electrode system. This electrode system can, for example, be gold electrodes which are provided with a coating. The coating usually contains various enzymes and mediators and has the effect that charge carriers (for example, in the form of redox molecules) form within the blood sample at the electrodes. The concentration of the charge carriers are dependent on blood glucose concentration and can be determined by the gold electrodes and a suitable measuring system known to a person skilled in the art, for example, by means of a comparatively simple current-voltage measurement from which blood glucose concentration can be calculated. Such a test device is known from U.S. Publication No. 20020170823, which can be used for substance analysis in body fluids such as for measuring blood glucose concentration. The described measuring device has a hand-held device and a base station in which the hand-held device and the base station can exchange data via an interface. The portable hand-held device is powered by lithium batteries. In the first step described above for generating a blood sample, the lancet system usually first has to be manually tensioned when using systems and lancing aids known in the prior art. A spring system is typically manually tensioned, which requires a user to apply force in order to create the tension. However, this has disadvantages because children or people with physical limitations cannot usually use such lancing aids without help, and the use of such systems is inconvenient. Furthermore, operating some of these lancing aids with one hand is not always possible due to the required tensioning process. Embodiments incorporating the present invention address the described disadvantages of the prior art and provide a portable lancing aid for collecting liquid samples and, in particular, for collecting blood samples for determining blood glucose concentrations. The portable lancing aid is easy to operate, especially for children or patients with physical limitations. Furthermore, additional embodiments provide a system for collecting liquid samples which has a portable lancing aid and a charging station for charging at least one long-term energy storage component of the portable lancing aid. An exemplary embodiment of the portable lancing aid has at least one lancet system, wherein the lancet system has at least one lancet and at least one tensioning device for tensioning the lancet system. This lancet system can be one with a tensioning device that has a spring system such as those found in the prior art. This embodiment of the portable lancing aid is also flexible with regard to the design of the lancet and thus any lancet known to a person skilled in the art may be used. For example, the lancet can have at least one lancet needle, and in particular, a disposable lancet needle which for hygienic purposes is replaced by a new lancet needle after one or more lancing operations. Instead of lancet needles, the lancet can also have analogous designs such as prism-shaped, sharp-edged lancets. In particular, the portable lancing aid can have a single lancet or a plurality of lancets. In one embodiment with a plurality of lancets, a magazine for holding and/or dispensing lancets is advantageously used. An exemplary magazine is described in Publication No. DE 10 302 501. In another embodiment, the portable lancing aid has at least one electromechanical actuator that tensions the tensioning device. The electromechanical actuator advantageously has at least one electric motor such as a direct current motor. It is further possible to use other electromechanical actuators such as magnetic systems (e.g., electromagnets) or piezoelectric systems. The electromechanical actuator can, for example, be directly connected to the lancet system, and in particular, with the tensioning device, or it can be connected by one or more gear units. The gear unit can, for example, have a drive mechanism via one or more drive belts or one or more gear wheels. In addition, one embodiment of the portable lancing aid has at least one rechargeable long-term energy source that is connected to the electromechanical actuator in order to store electrical energy. In this embodiment, the energy source is used for storing electrical energy and remains substantially charged even after days if there is no electrical load. In particular, the electrical energy or charge should not decrease below 40% of the original energy or charge within about three days. This long-term energy source can be a battery and it has proven to be advantageous in various embodiments to use rechargeable batteries such as rechargeable lithium ion batteries and/or rechargeable lithium polymer batteries. It is also possible to use rechargeable nickel cadmium batteries and/or rechargeable nickel metal hydride batteries (NimH). However, it is also possible to use other types of rechargeable batteries. Thus, for example, capacitors having a long-term storage effect such as �supercaps� (also referred to as ultra capacitors) can also be used. Stored electrical energy can also be partially removed from these supercaps similar to batteries or rechargeable batteries and the self-discharge of these components is very low. Typical supercaps still have about 60-70% of their original charge after 30 days without load. Such components have the particular advantage over conventional rechargeable batteries in that they can be rapidly charged. In another embodiment, the portable lancing aid has at least one interface that is accessible from outside the lancet system, wherein the long-term energy source can be connected to the interface in order to store electrical energy and be recharged. This interface can be one or more electrodes, such as metal electrodes, which are arranged on the outside of the housing. An appropriate complementary interface (e.g., a charging interface or charging station) can then be used to supply energy to these metal electrodes via connection to an appropriate power supply unit. This allows the energy source of the portable lancing aid to be recharged at regular intervals. In another embodiment, the interface can also have a device for inductively charging the long-term energy source. For example, the interface can have a secondary coil of a transformer that is electrically connected to the energy source and a transformer core such that the energy source can be inductively charged essentially by putting a primary coil on the transformer core and applying an alternating voltage to this primary coil. This primary coil can, for example, be a component of a charging station into which the portable lancing aid is inserted. The charging operation can take place when a charge level indicator shows that the charge level is below the minimum charge value for the long-term energy source. Hence, it has proven to be advantageous in one embodiment when the portable lancing aid has a charge level indicator to display the electrical charge level of the energy source for storing electrical energy. Such charge level indicators are known to a person skilled in the art and can, for example, have simple optical displays and/or acoustic indicators. In particular, the charge level indicator can have an optical segment display in the form of one or more light-emitting diodes which indicate the charge level of the energy source. Furthermore, the user of the portable lancing aid can also be given a warning such as an alarm such as an optical or acoustic signal when the charge level of the energy source reaches or falls below a specified minimum charge level. Thus, the user can be warned when the charge level of the energy source is no longer adequate to tension the lancet system or when the charge level is only sufficient for a few tensioning operations (for example, enough energy for a daily number of blood glucose measurements). This prevents the user or patient from not being able to carry out blood glucose measurements due to an unexpectedly uncharged energy source of the portable lancing device. Embodiments of the portable lancing aid are advantageous over lancing aids in the prior art because the user no longer has to exert any mechanical force to tension the lancet system. The lancet system is instead tensioned by the electromechanical actuator. Hence, the portable lancing aid can also be used comfortably by patients with physical limitations or by children. The portable lancing aid can also be easily operated with one hand. If the charge level of the energy source and, in particular of the rechargeable battery, falls below a specified minimum value, the user or patient is warned accordingly so that the energy source can either be recharged or replaced. In addition, an embodiment of the device can also be provided in which the tensioning device is manually tensioned so that the lancet system can still be tensioned even when the energy source is empty or almost empty, but in this case the patient has to exert a mechanical force. In an exemplary embodiment, the portable lancing aid can include at least one tensioning status sensor which detects the tensioning state of the tensioning device. Furthermore, means can be provided such as an appropriate electronic device or element (e.g., a microcomputer or other electronic components) to analyze the detected state of tension of the tensioning device. A tensioning operation can then be triggered depending on the detected state of tension. If it is, for example., found that the lancet system is in an untensioned state (e.g., after the lancet system has been triggered), the tensioning device can be automatically retensioned. The portable lancing aid is thus again ready for operation and further intervention by the user is not necessary. This embodiment is especially advantageous in combination with a portable lancing aid having a magazine for holding a plurality of lancets. In this embodiment, the system is designed such that a new lancet is selected automatically for each tensioning operation and prevents unhygienic multiple use of the same lancet. In an alternative embodiment, the lancet can be selected manually by the user, for example, by means of an appropriate rotary knob connected to the magazine. In an advantageous embodiment, the system for collecting liquid samples includes a charging station to charge the long-term energy source of the portable lancing aid. In this embodiment, one or more portable lancing aids can be connected to a charging station. Such charging stations are known from various fields of the state of the art. In addition to the base station disclosed in U.S. Publication No. 20020170823, such systems are also disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 6,524,240 for charging portable medical devices. An example of an electronic circuit of a charging station which prevents a portable instrument that is inserted into the charging station from being actuated when a charging current flows is disclosed in Publication No. DE 4036479. The charging station can, for example, have at least one charging interface or coupling which can be connected to a source of electrical energy. This connection can be via one or more switches (for example selection switches or on/off switches) or via an electronic circuit so that an appropriate voltage transformation, an overvoltage protection, and/or an appropriate interval timer can be used which simplifies the handling of the system and makes a safer design. In this embodiment, it should be possible to connect the portable lancing aid to the charging station such that the charging interface or coupling is connected to the interface of the portable lancing aid. This connection between the portable lancing aid and the charging station can be accomplished by inserting the portable lancing aid into a corresponding recess of the charging station where the portable lancing aid is advantageously aligned during insertion such that the interface of the portable lancing aid is in electrical contact with the interface or coupling of the charging station. The above-mentioned aspects of the present invention and the maimer of obtaining them will become more apparent and the invention itself will be better understood by reference to the following description of the embodiments of the invention, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein: Corresponding reference numerals are used to indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views. The embodiments of the present invention described below are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the precise forms disclosed in the following detailed description. Rather, the embodiments are chosen and described so that others skilled in the art may appreciate and understand the principles and practices of the present invention. The portable lancing aid 110 additionally has a lancet system 120. The design and mode of operation of this lancet system 120 can, for example, be analogous to the embodiment of the lancet system 120 disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 7,223,276. Other embodiments of lancet systems can be used such as the lancet system disclosed in U.S. Publication No. 20040260325. The aforementioned U.S. patent and publication are hereby incorporated by reference. The lancet system 120 has a tensioning device 122 and a release or trigger button 124. In addition, the lancet system 120 has a drum magazine 126 (mostly hidden in The portable lancing aid 110 also has a direct current motor 134 in the embodiment shown in As shown in The portable lancing aid 110 shown in The electronic control circuit board or element 146 of the portable lancing aid 110 is designed such that the tensioning status of the tensioning device 122 detected by the tensioning status sensor 142 is used to automatically tension the lancet system 120. As soon as the tensioning status sensor 142 detects that the tensioning device 122 of the lancet system 120 is in an untensioned state (e.g., after triggering the lancet system 120), the direct current motor 134 is started automatically by the electronic control circuit board or element 146 so that the tensioning device 122 is retensioned and the portable lancing aid 110 is thus again ready for operation. Other embodiments of the portable lancing aid 110 are possible in which tensioning the tensioning device 122 by the direct current motor 134 is not triggered until the user makes an affirmative action such as by actuating an appropriate input button on the surface of the portable lancing aid 110. In the embodiment shown in An embodiment of a system for collecting liquid samples 210 is shown in The charging station 212 is additionally provided with a flat underside or bottom surface 220 such that the charging station 212 can be safely positioned on flat surfaces without tilting even after the portable lancing aid 110 is inserted. Other exemplary charging stations 212 may have several recesses 214 and charging interfaces or couplings 310 to simultaneously charge several portable lancing aids 110 for use, such as, in hospitals. In describing the steps involved in the method of The detection of the tensioning status in step 412 and checking the tensioning status in step 414 can be carried out continuously or periodically so that the lancet system 120 is kept in a tensioned state. Alternatively, as described above, the tensioning 418 of the lancet system 120 can also be initiated by user input. Finally in step 424, the charge status of the rechargeable lithium ion battery 144 is detected. This detection of the charge status in step 424 does not necessarily take place after the triggering step 422, but rather the detection of the charge status can also, for example, be carried out continuously or at regular intervals or at other stages in the method of While exemplary embodiments incorporating the principles of the present invention have been disclosed hereinabove, the present invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments. Instead, this application is intended to cover any variations, uses, or adaptations of the invention using its general principles. Further, this application is intended to cover such departures from the present disclosure as come within known or customary practice in the art to which this invention pertains and which fall within the limits of the appended claims. 110 portable lancing aid 112 housing 114 housing cover 116 screws 118 threaded holes 120 lancet system 122 tensioning device 124 trigger button 126 drum magazine 128 disposable lancets 130 lancet cap 132 rotary knob 134 direct current motor 136 drive 138 gear wheel 140 gear wheel 142 tensioning status sensor 144 rechargeable lithium ion battery 146 electronic control circuit board or element 148 interface 210 system for collecting liquid samples 212 charging station 214 recess 216 housing of the charging station 218 mains connection or power cord 220 flat underside 222 charge level indicator 310 charging interface or coupling 410 selection of a lancet 412 detection of a tensioning status 414 checking the tensioning status 416 untensioned status 418 tensioning of the lancet system 420 tensioned status 422 triggering the lancet system 424 detecting a charge status 426 indicating the charge status 428 checking whether it falls below the minimum charge status 430 falls below the minimum charge status 432 output of a warning signal 434 charging Patent Citations

It is pretty hard to find a simple-yet-functional and good looking datepicker script.
The most popular one is probably the jQuery UI's picker but it is heavy in size for any project that actually does only need a datepicker.
Pikaday is a standalone JavaScript datapicker which is small in size (<5kb) and can work well with Moment.js if advanced formatting is needed.
The design of the picker can be easily customized with CSS (the default style already looks good) and offers "quick year switching".

Cory tank, version 3 1 Attachment(s) Gone is the piece of wood with the little plant (let's just say I've already caught 2 snails), I have added another hideout, 4 Amazon Swords, 3 male Phantom Tetras (2 females coming tomorrow, boys), and an assassin snail for any additional hitchhikers...I don't think he'll hurt the fish, and he might grab scraps that the cories miss. You can see by the photo that the tetras are near the bottom of the tank with the corys...1 under the coconut, and two on the bottom right. I bet if Byron were here he'd tell me that they are freaked and are under the plants where they feel safe ;-) I'm on the lookout for plastic floating plants. Oh, and I replaced the hydro sponge filter with an AquaClear HOB (needed the space for plants). I figure if anyone decides to spawn I can throw a prefilter sponge over the intake. Any other ideas for improvement? |
It looks nice. I like the rock decoration. How about a black background? I think the background would really bring out the color in the plants. |
I would need to find pre-cut backgrounds. Ask anyone who has received a gift from me how well I cut paper :-D I got a few little pieces of floating water lettuce that should provide a tiny bit of overhead cover while not blocking all the light for the real plants. Hopefully those swords will grow enough to make them redundant. I also completed the tank with 2 female Phantoms. Frozen bloodworms for everyone tomorrow! |
Um, you can buy black backgrounds.. Or! Those like packs of black paper you can buy. Just overlap a few pieces. Thats what mine is. |
if the wood was real wood, I would put it back (rocks are nice, leave them); believe me, wood is very useful for fish, plants and water. Snails are not a problem, they are a sign of a good ecosystem, especially Malaysian livebearers, but even pond snails or bladder snails are useful. I have more than I can count in my aquaria. Looking good Mike. |
I'm afraid I already pitched the wood...I was afraid of being overrun with the little buggers :-( I have a small piece of arched driftwood that will be going in the tank in the morning...it is on day 2 of it's soak now.:-) |
You can boil the wood to decrease the soaking time dramatically, as it accelerates the leaching out of tannins. It also kills whatever hitchhikers and parasites that may be on the wood. Adding a little baking soda while boiling won't hurt, either. |

EDIT 2: Best Of All Time list!! Wooooooo!!!!
EDIT: Holy crap, that was the fastest front page EVER! AND two awards, a 4.5, and 62 reviews in only a 12-hour time span. Thank you all so much!
As for me making yet another one, I MAY make a Fable III video sometime in the distant future, but I need a pretty good break from screaming into a microphone and burning my retinas out with computer glare every waking moment :)
Also, Rodriguez shirt :D (Remove random spaces): http://www.zazzle.com/rod riguez_awesome_shirt-2352 22008320738360
So, the title is different on the site than in the movie cause it won't fit in the allotted space, just fyi.
So sorry about the large delay in the video's release, but it took a LONG time, my god. I can say for sure that the technical quality is in every way better in this one than the first one, and I really hope the content and jokes are the same.
Please enjoy very much :)
-Kyle (White Lightning)
Note: Please do NOT post comments along the lines of "you suck," "this is stupid," "this is nothing like Fable II," " Fable III is out already, you idiot," or "Jon looks like the Vault Boy from Fallout." I'm very aware of these opinions and that they are probably true. I'm sure that won't stop you, but worth a shot.
Love it!
It made me laugh uncontrollably!
Is it just me, or is it that John looks like Vault-Boy?
Nice stuff, m8!
I'm not really all that familiar with the Fable series, but this was hilarious, as I had an idea what the game must be like. Please do more!
I totally liked the part with the woman and the giant hammer.
loved the first one, and now i get to watch a second awesome vid. keep up the excellent work!
If u can make one on fable 3 about were is Lady grey :D That would be awsome :D

THX™ Certified 7.1-Channel A/V Surround Home Theater Receiver
Setting the Quality Benchmark as the World's First THX™ Certified 7.1-Channel A/V Surround Home Theater Receiver Certified Integrated Home Theater System
When THX created a category for integrated systems, with parameters set for overall system performance rather than for separate loudspeaker and amplifier performance, the challenge was too tempting for Onkyo's engineers to resist. Piling their energy into the world-first HT-S990THX, they came up with a powerful, high-performance solution that combines the convenience of all-in-one systems with the performance of much higher-priced separate components. On top of a full suite of THX processing capabilities, the HT-S990THX is anchored by key Onkyo technologies, such as Wide Range Amplifier Technology (WRAT). The HT-S990THX will cater for virtually any DVD/universal player, cable/set-top box, DVR or gaming console through its switching capabilities—all upconverted and then delivered to your display via a single component video connection. And if that level of integration isn't enough, you're also primed for the launch of HD-DVD and Blu-ray Discs through 7.1-multichannel inputs delivering the full potential of HD audio formats. This system has been designed for flexible placement in all but the largest of rooms—a clear match for any lifestyle.

Boston (5-0-1) vs Montreal (1-4-1)
This one is easy. Barring a spectacular performance from Carey Price or Jaroslav Halak and Boston taking a ridiculous number of penalties, the Bruins will win this one easy. The Bruins have better goaltending, significant better defense considering Montreal's injuries, and better and bigger forwards. Boston dominated the regular season series and will take this series in 5 games.
Washington (3-0-1) vs NY Rangers (0-3-1)
The Capitals are the young and offensively talented team while the Rangers have more experience (though not significantly so) and play a more defensive game with excellent goaltending. The key for the Rangers will be to have one of their forward lines really step up and consistently produce offense. If they can do that their defense and goaltending may be enough to get them past the Capitals. In the end though I just think the Capitals have too much offensive power with Ovechkin, Semin, Backstrom,Green etc. The Capitals will win in 6 games.
New Jersey (1-3-0) vs Carolina (3-1-0)
This is a very intriguing series. You have the hottest team in the NHL in the Hurricanes (won 9 in a row before dropping the final 2 almost meaningless games) against a veteran team who struggled at times down the stretch. The Devils won 4 of their final 5 games, including a season closing victory over the Hurricanes so maybe they are back in the winning mode. Brodeur struggled a bit down the stretch as well but we know he can, and likely will, pick up his game during the playoffs. Cam Ward has been awesome for the Hurricanes the past few months as well so it could be a low scoring series. This is a tough call but I'll go with Brodeur and the Devils in 7 games.
Pittsburgh (4-2-0) vs Philadelphia (2-4-0)
If the Devils-Hurricanes series is a low scoring one, this will be a high scoring one. Both the Penguins and Flyers have very strong offensive teams and both are capable of putting out two very good offensive lines. Both teams have some good offensive defensemen as well. Defensively both teams have some issues and both teams, particularly the Flyers, have experienced streaky goaltending. For the Flyers Martin Biron can be exceptionally good for a few weeks and then be exceptionally bad for a few weeks. Same for Niittymaki. I am going to give an edge to the Penguins in this series because I think they are playing better hockey heading into the playoffs. Penguins in 6.
San Jose (4-2-0) vs Anaheim (2-4-0)
The Sharks fired Ron Wilson as head coach and brought in Detroit Red Wing assistant coach Todd McLellan to take over as head coach last summer. The reason for the move was in hopes of having more playoff success. For whatever reason, the Sharks didn't perform up to expectations in the playoffs despite some really good regular seasons under Wilson. The big question is, is this the year for the Sharks? In my opinion they have drawn a pretty tough opening round matchup. They Ducks ended the season on a high note going 10-2-1 in their last 13 games while the Sharks haven't played as well in the last month or so as they did for most of the season before that. The Ducks can match the Sharks in goal and on defense but the Sharks should have a bit of an edge up front with a little more depth. The Sharks edge in this series is not as significant as many might believe based on each teams regular season point totals. I like the Ducks to upset the Sharks in 7 games.
Detroit (3-2-1) vs Columbus (2-3-1)
This is another upset waiting to happen because the Blue Jackets have generally held their own against the Red Wings and they have a rookie goaltender who is capable of stealing a game or two all on his own. The Red Wings meanwhile have goaltenders that are more than capable of giving away a few games on their own. Outside of goaltending there is really no comparison as the Red Wings are by far the better team. I'll predict the Red Wings will win in 6, but if the Blue Jackets can pull an upset and take the series I will not be shocked.
Vancouver (2-2-0) vs St. Louis (2-2-0)
Both the Canucks and the Blues played excellent hockey down the stretch with the Canucks surging into the Northwest division title over the Flames and the Blues surging into a final playoff spot. The question I have about the Blues (and somewhat applies to the Blue Jackets too) is will the Blues just be happy to have made the playoffs or will they still have fuel left in their tanks to win a long series. I think for the Blues they may find themselves drained after a tough playoff push which shifts the series into Vancouver's favour. But the key reason I'll be picking Vancouver is because I believe Luongo has something to prove and will have a very strong series. I am picking Vancouver in 5 games.
Chicago (4-0-0) vs Calgary (0-3-1)
Of all the 'good' teams in the west I always believed the Blackhawks were the team you wanted to face in the playoffs because they have up and down goaltending and a lot of young, inexperienced players. But then I look at how Chicago dominated the Flames in the regular season and how the Flames struggled down the stretch and I have to start thinking that the Blackhawks have the edge in this series. No doubt the key for the Flames is Kipprusoff. When he struggles, the Flames struggle. Kipprusoff struggled down the stretch and if he doesn't pick it the playoffs will be short for the Flames. As much as I hate to make this prediction, I have to predict the Blackhawks in 7.
Further down the road:
Eastern Conference Winner: Pittsburgh Penguins
Western Conference Winner: Vancouver Canucks
Stanley Cup Winner: Pittsburgh Penguins

Pittsburg? No way. How will they beat Boston?
Why can't they?
Boston's forecheck will really trouble Pittsburg's defense, and Boston's ability to trap will stifle their offense. Plus they've got comparable goaltending. I just don't see them able to beat Boston four times.
blackhawks all the way

Mow: But the Cent 1 is a good tank! Its just that it's VERY squishy.
Now for a sample of the craziness this afternoon. Yoyo'd a bit before finally ending on a 23 wins versus 19 losses ratio. Some Tier 9s. The T-54 game was particularly crazy, as I actually fell off one of the ravines on the northwest... Then some of the enemy tanks followed me down. Needless to say, they died stupidly. And finally that EXTREMELY rare perfect 15-1 wipeout game on tier 10. Also, a bit of irony: according to WoT Stats, my Efficiency actually went down for some reason.

There is the possibility though that people will catch on to this tactic, and then flood entire games with B1's just to earn top 50 at Tier IV. Well, I wanted to try the French line anyway, so why not go with Sodoko and the Kamo-san team

What annoys me most now is how... I seem to have one of the BETTER averages with the B1 ever for the NA server (56.48%). But the most unmodified experience I've EVER gotten from it is around 1400 (from 5 kills). It's hard to get higher that that with its 47mm, unless the whole enemy team just stands around in line for me to shoot and kill them.

When did this became a GuP image thread? Not that I'm complaining or nothing.
In other news, I had a fun demolition derby time with my IS, in 2 of the 5 battles I got Top Gun, while the next where very close ones to die but I managed to survive (like cleaning en entire city on Lakeville all by myself against an IS, a BDR, Wolverine and Pz4, promptly granting my team time enough to cap the enemy base while they held the line in base. 1200+ xp in those battles, I wonder how much will I need to get in the top 50 of the contest.

Pz4 Hydro was only on the test server, it was pulled. Same with the SU-85 built on Panzer 3 (? or 4) chassis premium.
Regarding brit stock grinds: Next tier is "hey, you just got the same tank again, with 10% more HP and now you fight tougher enemies. ENJOY YOUR GRIND >:] " |

Well... the Pz4 Hydro look like the actual Pz4, and the only recognizable fetaure of the hydro was the turret and the porsche esque back, so it's only a cosmetic change at the best.
And the SU-85 in the Pz3 chassis is a special prem in the RU server and they sell it over there. Whonder why NA don't put it on sale.

See here, that type of exp is nearly impossible to get on a B1, unless you annihilate a good chunk of the enemy team (7 or 8 tanks) AND get spotting damage on top of that. Its because the damage of the 47mm is pretty lethargic.
On other news, unlocked the final engine to the Leopard PTA. This leaves the 66k for the Ordinance gun. Not transferring out the Indienpanzer crew juuuuuuuuust yet as a result. This means I'll play one more time and get the x3s, then vanish for a week again.

Moving all of your belongings to a new home is a huge hassle, but Pensacola interior designer Jim Goldman has figured out a way around it. He had his new home brought to him.
Michael O'Donovan, who designed and built a nifty, 180-square-foot wooden home for Goldman, towed the little orange building from his East Hill workshop to his customer using just a Chevy pickup on Friday.
Despite its small size, the little house is packed with features, including a kitchen, a sleeping loft that fits a king-sized mattress and a fold-out dining room table. ...

The prognostic importance of two easily obtainable noninvasive markers after intravenous thrombolytic therapy in acute myocardial infarction. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 8314684 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
The predictability of left ventricular function, short- and long-term prognosis, assessed by means of two easily obtainable noninvasive markers, was prospectively studied in 110 consecutive patients undergoing thrombolytic therapy for acute myocardial infarction. Positive noninvasive markers were defined as follows: a) > 50% reduction in ST segment elevation within 120 min of initiating therapy, and b) early peak of creatine kinase (CK) activity < 12h after the start of thrombolysis. Seventy-five (68%) of the patients had two positive markers and are classified as the responder group. The nonresponder group consisted of 35 patients (32%) who had 0-1 positive markers. Left ventricular function was assessed 6-12 weeks after therapy by equilibrium radionuclide ventriculography. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and survival rates at 1 month and 36 months were significantly higher in the responder group compared to the nonresponder group (54 +/- 12% vs. 43 +/- 11%, P < 0.05; 99% vs. 89%, P < 0.06; and 95% vs. 80%, P < 0.05 respectively). Thus, the combined analysis of two easily obtainable noninvasive markers can predict post-treatment preservation of left ventricular function and survival up to 36 months in patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing thrombolytic therapy. |

I can't help but laugh over some of the silliest things that cause LO to throw a tantrum or get upset. I know I shouldn't but like today for instance, Tues is my day to go to a 5:30 class at the gym but I don't want to stick DH with him and trying to get dinner ready since we usually tag team dinner and watching LO so on Tues I pick up LO from DC, take him to the childcare at the Y, take my class and then we go home and DH has dinner ready. I take a snack when I first pick him up since dinner will be later then usual. Anyways, back to the story, I went to give him a granola bar and he was all talking and happy and as soon as I opened it for him, he started crying like I'd taken away his favorite stuffy. There was no way he would have been able to open it on his own but he sure as hell didn't want me opening it for him. I couldn't help but to just start laughing over how silly it was that such a little thing set him off like that and he was so serious about it. What are some of the things that get your LO going that you wouldn't have thought would?
Can't help but laugh
My LO has been doing crap like this daily lately.
Example: I fill his sippy and set it on the counter and tell him to come get his drink. I hand it to him..... "NOOOOOOOO" whine whine whine. He takes the sippy out of my hand and sets it back on the counter and then *RE*grabs it. He wanted to get it off the counter himself.
I ask him if he wants to hold my hand up the stairs, "NOOOOOOO" BLAAAAH mini meltdown.
DD will flip her wig if I open the refrigerator. SHE must do it.
Heaven forbid I cut the leaves off the strawberries too. That is her 'hando"... handle.
a.k.a. Jäger Spice. Cuz that's what every mom deserves at the end of the day.
Me + Him = Silly Boy 8/07 & Pretty Girl 12/10
Putting her in the carseat instead of her climbing in herself. It was 15 degrees... I couldn't wait all day!
Sabrina (40) DH (34) married 7/1/07
"No way this is a viable pregnancy. Hope you m/c naturally" - RE... Result? DD born 12/7/10, 5 lbs, 3 oz.
Thank goodness, I'm not feeling like such a bad mommy now laughing at my kid's meltdowns.
ANything involving dressing, brushing teeth, bathing, strapping into booster...ANYTHING. Get it??? Lol.

Me- 29 DH -30
Married June 2005?
Logan born 12/28/10
My DS is the same way, he will see me open the cabinet to get a sippy out and he will throw a fit if it's not one he wants. He also wants to do everything on his own now. It is very hard not to laugh sometimes, I don't there is anyone more melodramatic than a toddler. :-)

Million-copy bestselling author Cathy Glass tells the story of Dawn, a sweet and seemingly well-balanced girl whose outward appearance masks a traumatic childhood of suffering at the hands of the very people who should have cared for her.
Dawn was the first girl Cathy Glass ever fostered. Sweet and seemingly well balanced girl, Dawn's outward appearance masked a traumatic childhood so awful, that even she could not remember it.
During the first night, Cathy awoke to see Dawn looming above Cathy's baby's cot, her eyes staring and blank. She sleepwalks – which Cathy learns is often a manifestation in disturbed children. It becomes a regular and frightening occurrence, and Cathy is horrified to find Dawn lighting a match whilst mumbling it's not my fault in her sleep one night.
Cathy discovers Dawn is playing truant from school, and struggling to make friends. More worryingly she finds her room empty one night, and her pillow covered in blood. Dawn has been self-harming in order to release the pain of her past.
When Dawn attempts suicide, Cathy realises that she needs more help than she can give. Dawn's mother eventually confides in her that Dawn was sent away to live with relatives in Ireland between the ages of 5 and 9, and Cathy soon realises that the horrors Dawn was exposed to during this time have left her a very disturbed little girl.
Reviews for 'Damaged':
'Cannot fail to move those who read it.' Adoption-net
'Heartbreaking.' The Mirror
'A truly harrowing read that made me cry.' The Sun
'A true tale of hope. ****.' OK!
'Foster carers rarely get the praise they deserve, but Cathy Glass's book should change all that.****' First Magazine
'A hugely touching and emotional true tale.' Star Magazine
When Cathy discovers she is pregnant with a baby of her own, their lives seems to be complete, but it soon becomes obvious that Dawn is going to be much harder to help than they had first imagined.
Cathy awakes in the middle of the night to find Sawn standing over her baby's cot, and a nightmare begins. When Cathy asks Dawn about the scars covering her arms, Dawn insists there is nothing to tell.
Cathy slowly discovers the terrible childhood Dawn has had, rejected by her parents, left to fend for herself, then subjected to violent treatment by her relatives. But Cathy soon realizes that Dawn's worst enemy is herself.

And they are from my neighborhood!
As to the band of the aughts, it's a shame that the music industry has gotten so AmericanIdoledhiphopped so that we can't even figure out the top contenders. I'm still listening to stuff I listened to 20 years ago with a few new additons once in awhile. I have no idea who the band of the aughts is, but I do know we need something/someone to jumpstart rock and roll.
Do Korn, or tool belong in this discussion?
Personally I think they do.
I think Tool merits discussion, though I much prefer A Perfect Circle. Korn? Meh. I'd rather talk Staind.
If we expand the discussion beyond rock, how about Outkast? Speakerboxx/The Love Below was great. The Love Below is one of my favorite albums of all time and I don't even like hip hop.
Outkast crossed my mind, but it's been five years since they put out a new record. They very well might have held the title during the first half of this decade.
Tool, while not my cup of tea, definitely belongs in the discussion. From what I understand, can't say for sure because I don't their stuff that well, Korn been slumping with its past few releases, no?
Another band that probably deserves a mention, but likely is past its heights, is Weezer. I'm sure that'll make a few heads explode. Weezer seems to have that effect on some people.
Raisel Ghul, the Demon's Head
Make that a thing.
I know what you mean, and I couldn't agree more. I guess thats not what I was trying to say.. I just see a lot of potential.. music is exciting again IMO, if you stick your nose in a crate and dig a little bit. I honestly couldn't feel I felt that way in long time. But I'm not trying to say there is def. a world's greatest rock band at the moment. I'd agree, that if there is one.. its still one of the legends from yesteryear. Floyd, Zep, the Stones.. The Beatles are back at the forefront with their "Love" exposure, if they even ever left.

Music these days is like going to the grocery store for Cheerios.
It used to be just plain Cheerios.
Now, you go look at the cereal aisle and there is honey nut, berry burst, yogurt burst, multigrain, fruity, frosty, little o, big o, breakfast bars with cheerios, cheerio classic, cheerios out the wazoo, blah blah blah, ad infinitum....
With so many options, your brain tharns over from all the choices.
Teach tolerance.
I dont know, you tell me.. please enlighten me... I dont think there's ever really been another like the Beatles, Kinks, Zep, Floyd, Who, etc. To me, I group them all together. There's been other UK bands that have been hits.. see u2, the Cure, radio head.. maybe you consider punk? i dont know.. But I dont know if theres every been another invasion.

I agree on A Perfect Circle, just don't know if that project has quite the same reach as tool at this point.
My thoughts on korn, while perhaps they don't quite have the requisite chops, were that they've been pretty influential (and I believe contemporary influence is an essential element). They started the Family Values Tour and have a sort of cross-genre reach that makes them somewhat difficult to pin down. I think M2 is right, though, that too much of their success is 'too' '90s for them to be highly considered as a "Band of the aughts". As bad as limp biskit is, korn pretty much brought them the attention they needed to break out. I think it could, further, be said that lb then provided a similar service to the aforementioned staind. So, that's more where I was coming from on korn. More about their aggregate influence on music than anything else really.
