If they're not good, what other glasses would you recommend that's around the same price?
How are the Nashbar sunglasses? I'm looking at the Ares in particular..
If they're not good, what other glasses would you recommend that's around the same price?
I am very happy with Tifosi. cheap,durable,scratch resistent, break resistent, multiple lenses, lots of frame styles and colors. available at local shops only as far as I know. the most expensive pair Ive seen was $50
for the creation was subjected to futility,not willingly , but because of Him who subjected it in hope...that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. Romans 8:20-29
the truth may not always be popular but its always true
I don't have any experience with the Nashbar sunglasses, but I'd imagine they're pretty much identical to the Performance brand (being the same company and all). I've worn a couple pair of the Performance shades, and I think they're a great deal. My main beef was that they didn't have rubber grips on the nosepads, but I know the newer ones do, oh and they can fog easily in the rain. Plus they came with three sets of lenses. I like them a lot.
Compared to other brands, I can say this:
The optics are as pretty much as good as those on my $100 pair of Smith Sliders, and the frames feel just as sturdy. My Smiths came with three sets of lenses, as well, so that's a wash. I'd say my Smiths just seem to fit better, but that's comparing apples and oranges since the two styles are different. Also, they don't fog quite as much as the Performance ones.
On the other hand, the Performance/Nashbar glasses are no comparison to my Rudy Project Rydons. The Rudy's optics are far nicer and the lenses don't fog easily at all. The frames themselves are far sturdier than the Performance or Smiths, and they fit amazingly well. I've never had a pair of shades that fit as well, and the earpieces are infinitely adjustable. The one downfall is that they only included one set of lenses and extra sets are at least $30 a piece. But, the supplied lens is a red color that is really versatile. I only find myself wanting when the light is really dim, so I may buy a clear set. I paid $130 for the Rudys, and I would pay it again in a second.
Bottom line... The Nashbars would probably be a great deal if you were looking to spend $30 or less. If you want some thing a little higher end, try Smith, but find some on sale. I wouldn't pay full price for Smiths. If you want a sweet pair of technical sunglasses that are a joy to put on, and you're willing to shell out some dough, Rudy Projects are the answer.

As the trade deadline kicks into gear, teams who consider themselves buyers -- much like the Cardinals in acquiring Edwin Jackson and relievers, but sending away young center fielder Colby Rasmus -- are hoping that years from now, those teams will land on articles detailing moves that worked out at the trade deadline.
This is one such article looking back at the three previous years and the deadline deals that occurred. Which of these deals ended up being fantastic ones for teams? Looking strictly at those who were "buyers" -- that is, they went after the best player in the deal or made a trade clearly geared toward winning, let's take a look at the top five in reverse order.
July 29, 2009: Pirates trade 2B Freddy Sanchez to Giants for minor league RHP Tim Alderson.
The Giants were seven games out of first place, but leading the wild card when they added second baseman Freddy Sanchez from Pittsburgh. Sanchez was supposed help settle the Giants' offense en route to a playoff berth. "A kid that has distinguished himself as an All-Star three out of the last four years and a batting champ within that time frame," GM Brian Sabean told the Associated Press at the time of the trade. The timing's great."
Unfortunately for Sabean, Sanchez has neither been an All-Star or batting champion since, but this trade still comes away as a win. That's because Sanchez wasn't acquired with just 2009 in mind, as he limped to the finish line with his new team that season. Battling a leg injury, Sanchez appeared in only 25 games, hitting .284/.295/.324. But in 2010, Sanchez hit .292/.342/.397 as an important part of the team, which would eventually win the World Series that October.
This deal was actually considered a loss for San Francisco at the time, as they coughed up Tim Alderson, then ranked the No. 4 prospect in the Giants organization by Baseball America. But declining velocity took all the luster off of the lefty, who is 22 years old and attempting to reinvent himself as a reliever for Double-A and won't reach the majors unless something changes.
July 31, 2009: Red Sox trade 1B Adam LaRoche to Braves for 1B Casey Kotchman.
Mark Teixeira's replacement in Casey Kotchman wasn't bearing fruit, so the Braves gave up and shipped Kotchman north for Adam LaRoche, who came up with Atlanta and spent three years with the team before being dealt to Pittsburgh in the offseason prior to 2007. At just one game over .500, the Braves were looking for an offensive punch that could get them into the wild card and division mix.
It worked, as the Braves finished the season 10 games over .500, but they still fell short of the playoffs, despite LaRoche's patented second-half surge aiding the team with 12 home runs in 242 plate appearances, hitting .325/.401/.557. That's fantastic production with a cost in only Kotchman, who was traded after the season to Seattle for Bill Hall and hit .217/.280/.336 in full-time duty. Kotchman has rebounded this season in Tampa Bay with a .328 batting average as the club's starting first baseman, but Atlanta's happy with rookie first baseman Freddie Freeman.
July 29, 2009: Indians trade LHP Cliff Lee and OF Ben Francisco to Phillies for minor league RHP Jason Knapp, RHP Carlos Carrasco, SS Jason Donald and C Lou Marson.
This ended up being a fantastic deal for the Phillies. While the players Philadelphia coughed up have either not yet started their major-league careers or have just started -- making full evaluation of the deal impossible -- we can try. Let's go in order, starting with Knapp. What made him so highly regarded is obvious when he steps on a mound, but that's not often. He briefly pitched for the Indians following the trade, then checked in with just 28 2/3 innings all of last season and has yet to pitch this year after undergoing his second major shoulder surgery since being acquired. He could still end up an ace, but it doesn't look good.
Carrasco has developed into a solid middle-rotation starter for Cleveland. That's all well and good but Philly doesn't lack for prospects and while Carrasco has value, he's not going to make the deal worth it all by himself. It'll be up to Donald and Marson. Donald hit .253/.312/.378 in 325 plate appearances for the Indians last season and is the man with the lone hit in Armando Galarraga's not-perfect game. He's toiling in the minors and isn't much more than a backup infielder, while Marson isn't much more than a backup catcher, hitting .208/.279/.296 in 424 PA over the last two seasons in that capacity.
So the Phillies benefit by giving up a package that, so far, isn't much for an ace like Lee. The left-hander would go on to post a 3.39 ERA in 79 1/2 innings for Philadelphia, giving the club an ace it desperately needed to defend their 2008 World Series title. Philly didn't do that against the Yankees (although Lee did win the only two games Philadelphia came away with in the series), but they did capture a second straight NL pennant and established Philadelphia as a big-market team that would be around for a while.
And of course, while Lee's stay in Philadelphia would be brief as he was moved to Seattle in the offseason to make way for Roy Halladay, Lee's time in Philly was so good that he returned to town as a free agent, taking less years to get back in the City of Brotherly Love. (And we haven't even mentioned Francisco, who has continued his fine career as a fourth outfielder in Philly, although he stumbled this season when handed more playing time.)
July 31, 2008: Red Sox trade LF Manny Ramirez to Dodgers, with 3B Andy LaRoche and minor league RHP Bryan Morris going to the Pirates in a three-team trade.
Manny Ramirez wore his welcome out in Boston so badly, the Red Sox would have given anything to get rid of ManRam. They ended up walking away with Jason Bay in a three-team deal, sending Ramirez to Los Angeles. (The full details: Morris and LaRoche to the Pirates along with Boston's RHP Craig Hansen and OF Brandon Moss.) The Red Sox ended up pleased with their investment, giving up essentially nothing. But the Dodgers had the bigger coup, as LaRoche was a colossal bust in Pittsburgh and is now in the farm system of Oakland. Morris is now 24 and has an outside chance of making the majors.
But Manny was all the rage in Los Angeles for the rest of the year back in 2008, hitting an unconscionable .396/.489/.743 with 17 home runs in 53 games. Even Jose Bautista can only aspire to these levels. Ramirez took a .500 team to the division title and boasted a .520 batting average in October as the Dodgers fell to the Phillies, who would eventually win the World Series. He hit well enough in 2009 for Los Angeles at .290/.418/.531 in 431 PA, but was suspended 50 games for violating baseball's drug program. A year later, Ramirez was no longer the toast of town and quickly forced his way out to the White Sox. Still, Ramirez helped revive the Dodgers, if only for a brief period of time before Frank McCourt would do Manny one better in demoralizing Dodger fans.
July 24, 2009: Athletics trade LF Matt Holliday to Cardinals for minor league 3B Brett Wallace, OF Shane Patterson and RHP Clayton Mortensen.
This is the fourth 2009 deal on this list. It was certainly a good time to be a buyer back then, as the Cardinals well know. They picked up a slugger for ... well, nothing special. Holliday had been acquired from the Rockies in the offseason by Oakland, who offered up (gulp) Carlos Gonzalez, Huston Street and Greg Smith. They didn't get anywhere close the return for Holliday after he failed to produce in Oakland's cavernous stadium. Wallace was supposed to be a good hitting prospect -- his luster had yet to dim. But it did in the next two years, with Wallace being flipped to Toronto after the season, the Jays then immediately sending him to Houston. Opening the year as the starting first baseman for Houston, Wallace has hit .275/.352/.382 and just lost his starting spot.
Mortensen was a fleeting -- and failing -- pitcher in Oakland before being traded for next to nothing to Colorado and has been a solid swingman this season but is currently in Triple-A. Peterson was just promoted to Triple-A and has a shot to develop into ... well, something. But that's a very weak return for a man who has paired with Albert Pujols for a devastating 3-4 punch. He was so overjoyed to be back in the NL that he hit .352 the rest of the way, and is at .320/.400/.549 after inking a contract extension. That's even better than his Colorado numbers, so this was a masterstroke for St. Louis. Odd to say that on a day where the Cardinals did the opposite of a masterstroke by dealing Colby Rasmus to Toronto.

"The Saints"
Sacrificial Lambs of the U.S.
The old hymn, "For All the Saints," was sung by a few voices on Saturday, July 19, 2008, inside the Emmanuel Lutheran Church at Hide Away Hills, Ohio. Some of the men who attended this memorial had been members of a military force who had been referred to as "The Saints," Just across the road from the church is a hillside cemetery which contains the mortal remains of a young Christian Soldier for the Cross, Cpl. John Alan Coey. Corporal Coey had served as a medic and was truly one of "The Saints."
To understand the significance of this memorial service, one must think back to the years between 1965 and 1980. There existed in a far distant African country a war being waged against both the black and white population. The enemies attacked from Uganda, Zambia and Mozambique. These radical black forces were aided by China and Russia. The U.S. and Britain were attempting to secretly destroy this white-ruled country. These two powerful English-speaking countries placed sanctions upon this far-off land populated by their own people.
Landlocked Rhodesia put up a desperate struggle against the communists Marxists who brutally executed missionaries and mutilated black or white Rhodesians. The echo of Rhodesia's wounded cries were heard by the world, but those cries for help were ignored. Dedicated young men volunteered from eighteen different countries to battle for Rhodesian freedom against the forces of darkness and oppression.
These young men who faced the foe were often strong anti-communists and Christians who felt the need to aid a friendly country that was in dire need. Some of these volunteers gave their all while others were wounded and disabled for life. John Alan Coey, an American gave up his life in Rhodesia as the first American to die in that dirty little-known war. Another six American volunteers would breathe their last in that foreign land. Two of the Canadian volunteers were killed in action during bloody encounters with black guerrillas.
The date of July 19, 1975, has a special significance to three different families as three young soldiers each from a different nation were killed in Rhodesia on that one day. One soldier was from South Africa, one a native of Rhodesia and another soldier was from Hide Away Hills, Ohio, U.S.A. The memorial of July 19, 2008, was the first ever reunion held in the U.S. to recognize all of "The Saints" who had served in the highly decorated Rhodesian Light Infantry battalion.
The Rhodesian Light Infantry existed from 1961 until 1980. From 1965 until 1980 the unit was involved in a fifteen year war. The battalion headquarters were in Salisbury at the Cranborne Barracks. The forces of the R.L.I. were trained to parachute into the bush at low altitudes. Paratroopers were dropped into the bush to do battle with black insurgents and it was dangerous work.
The Rhodesian Light Infantry officers taught their foreign volunteers a type of fire force warfare developed especially for fighting in the African veldt. These foreign volunteers were not soldiers of fortune or mercenaries. They received the same pay packet as the Rhodesian soldiers. They fought side by side with the native-born soldiers some of whom were black. The foreigners were required to sign a three years contract with the military. Cpl. John Alan Coey had volunteered for five years service with the R.L.I.
The Rhodesians and foreign volunteers fought a strong military defense, but were unable to fight off the overwhelming forces and the political intrigue. Rhodesia fell upon its knees due to the underhanded efforts of the U.S. government which always claims to be opposed to communism. President Jimmy Carter presided over the birth of Zimbabwe and was the midwife of that monster, Robert Mugabe.
How many times must the Americans be led down the garden path? We have been led to believe that the U.S. despises Marxism, and yet the U.S. has aided in the creation of cruel Marxist regimes. This has been achieved by the use of U.S. sanctions, secret backroom deals, bribery and outright lying to the American people.
Zimbabwe and the "never-ending presidency" of Mugabe are a direct product of U.S. interference in Rhodesia's internal affairs. We would not allow a white-ruled country to survive. The U.S. worked for its destruction even though the Rhodesian government did not practice apartheid. Our government also operated with deception in its treatment of the sovereign country of the Republic of South Africa. Just look at the current black Marxist leaders of African countries brought to life by our leaders' spawn!
During this July, 2008, the U.S. President George Bush and his cronies were congratulating Nelson Mandela upon his birthday. How can our "democratic" U.S. President give such recognition to a convicted terrorist and a Marxist leader? Our political poltroons with the assistance of the Zionist media will celebrate while Mandela's bandits continue to terrorize innocent white farmers. The truth about the criminal acts perpetrated by Mandela both in his past and in the present have been totally whitewashed.
I read about the planned memorial for Corporal Coey in the July edition of The First Freedom newspaper. It only gave me a few days to contact Phyllis Coey, John's mother, and make arrangements to travel to Ohio for the service. John had one sibling, G. Edward Coey, who is an older brother. Ed drove up from Alabama to give the eulogy at the church service and at the cemetery.
Rich Byrne from Pennsylvania helped to co-ordinate the memorial. His uncle, Trooper Joseph Patrick Byrne, was killed in Rhodesia on October 26, 1978. Emily Dwyer Barda drove to the memorial from Indianapolis, Indiana. Her uncle, Trooper Stephen M. Dwyer, was killed in action on July 16, 1979.
I was particularly interested in this event as I had lived in the Republic of South Africa in the 1970s. After returning home to Louisville, Kentucky, I kept in touch with events occurring in Rhodesia. More recently, I read and reviewed John's book "A Martyr Speaks" which is still available for sale. The first publishers of John's book attended the memorial service. Pat and Richard Brooks drove up from North Carolina with some Christian books written by Pat. They kindly offered them for anyone to take and read.
In Louisville, three of us formed a group which we called The Friends of South Africa. We organized several protests against the African National Congress which has always been a communist front. We attempted to awaken our fellow Kentuckians to the subterfuge created by the U.S. government about their motives for supporting the leftist Marxist leader, Nelson Mandela. While the Zulus were the majority tribe in South Africa, they remained ignored by the U.S. The Zulus were represented by Buthelezi who was a moderate; therefore he was not allowed a visa to enter the U.S. in order to speak!
The parents and brother of John Alan Coey were subjected to discrimination in a variety of way after John volunteered to fight for Rhodesia. During this period, the U.S. government could have refused John the right to keep his American citizenship or refused to allow him to return to his home. At the very same time the American Jews could hold two passports, one U.S. and the other Israeli. Jews could fight against Palestinians for Zionist Israel while retaining their U.S. citizenship.
When John was killed, the Coey family was financially assisted by Rhodesians in their travel expenses to Rhodesia for the funeral. John received a military funeral and he was buried in Que Que, Rhodesia. It seems that John had been planning to break his five year military contract after having completed more than three years as he had become engaged to a Rhodesian young woman. He was looking forward to returning to the U.S., but God had other plans for John Alan Coey.
In 1979, when it was apparent that Rhodesia could not hold on and would fall to the black barbarians, another kind of hero stepped forward. Rt. Hon. Viscountess Patricia Malvern, a Rhodesian, generously financed John's reburial in Ohio. It is due to her courage and generosity that he now rests in the Hide Away Hills of his youth.
The highlight of the memorial service was the opportunity to actually meet four of "The Saints" who traveled long distances to be at this service. Michael McDonald, a Canadian, attended with his Rhodesian wife, Rhona. Michael and Rhona live in Toronto, Canada. Michael almost lost his left hand after being shot in an encounter in the bush. His wife told me that she felt "fortunate" to have been raised in Rhodesia. Sadly, Rhodesia is now just a ghost in the mist of the past.
Jeremy Hall served in Rhodesia as a South African volunteer. Jeremy studied art in South Africa. He made many low-altitude parachute jumps while serving in the Rhodesian Light Infantry. Jeremy also now resides in Canada with his Rhodesian wife.
Craig Bone, a Rhodesian, studied art along with Jeremy in Durban, South Africa. Later on, both Craig and Jeremy wound up serving in the Rhodesian Light Infantry. Craig is a renowned African wildlife artist. His military career came to an end after he was seriously wounded in combat. Craig drove up to Ohio from his home in Florida.
Keith Nelson, an American, served in Viet Nam and after it fell in 1975, he volunteered to fight for Rhodesia. Keith was a R.L.I. medic and lost both legs after stepping on a mine. He is married to Mary, a Rhodesian woman. She also attended the service. Keith remained in Rhodesia for six years and became a Doctor. He and his wife live near Cincinnati and he has recently published a war novel entitled "Shadow Tracker."
These four men showed physical evidence of their sacrifices. "The Saints" were indeed the sacrificial lambs who were slaughtered or mutilated with support from our corrupt government. Some of their wounds are probably emotional scars from being in combat, losing their homeland, and realizing the betrayal of their own governments. This is the legacy left to these brave soldiers.
After the church service was finished, we marched across Hornsmill Road and walked up the hill to the spot where Cpl. John Alan Coey is buried next to his father, George Coey. We carried the Rhodesian flag and sang "The Saints Go Marching In." This was the passing out song for the R.L.I. and the origin of the appellation "The Saints." Lovely floral arrangements had been brought to the service and they were placed at the gravesite.
Seven American flags, each one to represent an American soldier, were placed in the ground. One additional flag was left there to represent all those who served in the Rhodesian Light Infantry. A bugler played "Taps."
We returned to the church basement for fellowship. Phyllis had planned for everyone to have lunch at the church. Melody Gordon, a member of the church prepared a fine meal for those in attendance. We looked at books and letters and articles and probably thought of how things might have been or should have been.
This is the list of the seven Americans killed in Rhodesia by date of their death:
Corporal John Alan Coey, July 19, 1975
Trooper George W. Clarke, May15, 1977
Sergeant Richard L. Biederman, December 6, 1977
Trooper Frank P. Battaglia, March 6, 1978
Trooper Joseph Patrick Byrne, October 26, 1978
Trooper Stephen M. Dwyer, July 16, 1979
Sergeant Hugh McCall, July 16, 1979
This was the first time members of the Rhodesian Light Infantry have had a reunion in the States. Let's hope there will be yearly reunions in order that their heroism and history will not be forgotten.
God Bless the Rhodesian Light Infantry (1961-1980) and all "The Saints."

The pic. was taken today, outside for a better light, and believe me, the hat looks fine. He did not want buttons or anything else, yours perhaps will want to be a wallhanger, some pockets , mine is for my son, nothing that he could take out or swallow (LOL, he is grown up!). Both are now sleeping as babies......
Tapestry needle for embroider eyes, teeth belt, legs. ( Do not add any button if it is for a kid)
If you use another kind of yarn/ hook all over the rug, it is not important, only the measures will change.
Important: When changing colors, do not forget to work the last st until 2 loops remain on hook, drop old color, pick up new color, yo and draw through both loops on hook.

Panel Discussion - Solar Energy and Sustainability
The third lecture presents evidence, largely from McIntosh's lab, that shows how microtubule depolymerization can move chromosomes in vitro and explores the nature of some of the protein complexes that can couple chromosomes to microtubules and take advantage of this reaction.
The second lecture describes some key experiments showing the dynamics of a formed mitotic spindle and the ways these may contribute to accurate chromosome motion. Experiments that reveal aspects of the processes by which chromosomes attach to the spindle are presented. Mitotic motors are introduced and discussed in the light of what they probably do and do not accomplish to effect chromosome motion, including acting to improve the accuracy of chromosome segregation.

Present West Bengal Human Rights Commission chairperson Justice Asok Kumar Ganguly has been identified as the former Supreme Court judge against whom a law intern has brought sexual harassment charge, according to media reports following the submission of a probe panel's report to the Chief Justice of India (CJI).
The statement of Justice AK Ganguly has been recorded by a panel set up by the Supreme Court to probe the allegation after the law intern wrote about it in a blog post.
The three member judges' panel of the Supreme Court investigated the charges of the woman and submitted their report to the CJI.
The panel was set up by the Chief Justice of India P Sathasivam.
"We cannot take it lightly. As the head of the institution, I am also concerned about the allegation and anxious whether the statement is true or not," CJI Sathasivam said while setting up the panel after the allegation.
Justice Dattu, Justice Desai and Justice Lodha are on the panel.
Stella James, who is a Fellow at Natural Justice: Lawyers for Communities and the Environment, blogged: "In Delhi at that time (during protests against the brutal Dec 16 gangrape), interning during the winter vacations of my final year in University, I dodged police barricades and fatigue to go to the assistance of a highly reputed, recently retired Supreme Court judge whom I was working under during my penultimate semester.
"For my supposed diligence, I was rewarded with sexual assault (not physically injurious, but nevertheless violating) from a man old enough to be my grandfather."
"I won't go into the gory details, but suffice it to say that long after I'd left the room, the memory remained, in fact, still remains, with me," she wrote in her blog for Journal of Indian Law and Society.
She said the incident affected her deeply.
"As a conditioned member of the society, I had quickly 'gotten over' the incident. But was that what worried me: that I had accepted what was essentially an 'unacceptable' situation," said Stella.
"While the incident affected me deeply, I felt little anger and almost no rancour towards the man; instead I was shocked and hurt that someone I respected so much would do something like this. My strongest reaction really, was overwhelming sadness," she said.
However, speaking to Mail Today earlier, Justice Ganguly said earlier: "I do not want to make any comments at this juncture. But this allegation is coming after almost a year and that too through a blog. A committee has been formed by the Supreme Court and it will take a decision after recording the girl's statement."

Thank You, Tiny Little Angry Man. ~ Kyra deGruy
So I'm leaving church today, and am minding my own business driving on the highway.
I'm feeling pretty good, enjoying the sun shining and thinking about the sermon that I just listened to.
As I'm switching lanes, a guy in a huge truck comes up on my car, totally hauling ass. He almost hits me, and flips me off with both hands (slightly dangerous…). I, being the smartass that I am, slow down to what turned out to be the speed limit (I was previously speeding), but it pisses him off nevertheless. He pulls past me in the left lane and, in an attempt to cut me off, hits the side of my car with his enormous truck.
I'm mad. My hands are literally shaking, and I want to scream at this man for being angry with me and hitting my car. For coming into my space and harming me.
But I'm given a moment of pause.
I remember the teachings I talk about, and claim to practice. I remember the eight limbs of yoga, and the benefit of the doubt.
Perhaps this man's child is dying of cancer at home and he's in a rush to kiss him goodbye. Maybe his wife is in labor, or if he doesn't make it to work in the next 10 minutes, he'll be fired. Who knows? And even if he's just an asshole, I still have to practice the principles of:
>Non-violence (in both tongue and action)
>Honesty and humility (I did slow down and provoke retaliation.)
>Non-stealing (Who's to say that portion of the highway was "mine"? My entitlement can tell me that everything belongs to me.)
>Moderation (in my emotions and actions)
>Contentment (I'm totally taken care of, and trust that everything happens for a reason.)
And, maybe most importantly:
>Self-awareness (If someone were watching my actions, would I be proud of how I behaved? Probably not in this circumstance.)
We pull over, and a tiny man jumps out of this huge truck and apologizes profusely for being such an agro asshole. He gives me his information and takes full blame for the accident. As he drives away, I am able to wish him a beautiful rest of his day, and feel gratitude that I no longer have to live in a series of "rage blackouts," as one of my best friends fondly refers to this terrible cycle.
I couldn't be more thankful for these guidelines to live by, and moments to pause. With a little bit of humility and acceptance, I am now able to walk, with class, through situations that used to lead to utter deterioration.
Thank you, yoga, and thank you, tiny little angry man, for today you were my guru.

Kyra…I feel it is important that we not attribute pop culture's proverbs to "Buddha". Here is a very useful link for all of us who wrongfully use false quotes from the Buddha. We should take it upon ourselves to really consider these quotes and their meaning before we use them. Because someone else on the world wide web uses it doesn't make it right. http://www.fakebuddhaquotes.com/all-fake-buddha-q…
Thank you for your feedback and concern, Padma. I will look into the website.
In this particular case, the sentiment of the quote is more important to me than who might have said it — or not. Nice story, Kyra. It's beautiful to see someone step back and really try to apply these principles, even when it's really hard.
Well done, Kyra.
However, the angry little man wasn't your guru. You were your guru.
As Master Hua used to say:
"Everything's a test, to see what we will do.
Mistaking what's before our eyes, we'll have to start anew."
I liked the article Kyra, Well done. It's funny thing when you realize everyone has something to teach.

NFL Week 2 Football - What did you Learn?
Usually after week 1 of the NFL Season, it is still unclear what to count on in terms of handicapping because there are so many variables in week 1 with new coaches and schemes and players, even after the preseason you many times do not get a great feel for teams because coaches try not to show their hand. It was apparent to me that many things were still left up in the air in terms of many teams direction after week 2, but then again some other teams clearly showed me that week 2 results were in fact a confirmation of final results from the previous week, yet other teams still have me scratching my head.
Here are my Week 2 NFL observations and conclusions:
- New England is the Worst 2-0 Team in the NFL– No chemistry on offense and bare beat 2 subpar teams.
- Seattle and Denver are CLEARLY the front runners for the Super Bowl
- Seattle is unbeatable at home and are the real deal
- Tampa Bay has no offense other than Martin running the ball – but they DO have a great defense.
- Kansas City, as I predicted, are the real deal and their defense is going to be top 6 in the NFL this year.
- Dallas is still Dallas, nothing has changed and no running game. Dez Bryant needs 8 -10 catches a game for them to win
- Philly is still an experiment on offense – clearly their defense is a major issue
- Washington Redskins a go against team. No defense and RG III a shell of himself as compared to last year
- Jacksonville went from bad to horrific this year. Johnny Manzeil welcome to your new team.
- Aaron Rogers proved again he is one of the best QB's in the NFL
- The Eagles, Redskins and Giants bad defenses, (WOW), will allow Dallas to win the NFC East division and make the Playoffs this season
- The BEST team in the NFL is Seattle – Hands Down.
- The Dolphins may in fact make a run at their division.

TAMPA, Florida - The stars came out in Tampa Bay to support the 10th annual Derek Jeter Celebrity Golf Classic.A glitzy, Hollywood-style launch party was held at the Hard Rock with Jeter himself as the host.
"I fell in love with Tampa Bay and I love it here.I love it that people come for the tournament each year," Jeter told 10 News.
He added with a big smile, "I can hide out here and be myself."
The red carpet was full of Jeter's buddies, such as local favorite Shelton Quarles, the Rays' own Don Zimmer, and star of the hit show Entourage, Kevin Connolly.
Quarles said, "Once you become part of a community, you never want to leave.I think we should have more events like this."
Zimmer and his wife also stopped to speak with 10 News. "This is tremendous. I'm so glad Jeter has his tournament here each year."
Jeter's foundation helps disadvantaged youth make healthy life choices through sports and education.
Connolly said, "I love helping out Derek."He has roots in Wesley Chapel where his extended family resides.
The tournament will help raise money for young people in both Tampa Bay and New York, along with the city of Kalamazoo, Michigan, where Jeter is from."I'm not much of a golfer. In fact my game gets worse each year.But we do this for the kids," he said.

Everybody knows that drinking water is good for the health. In my case, even carying a bottle of water never motivated me. My new solution? Fruit flavoured water beverage! No sugar added, no calories (or almost nothing) and it tastes so good :)
If you have trouble drinking your water try getting one of the water cups with straw before you know it your water is gone.
Water when you get up to get your system going, water before meals and you won't eat as much, water in the evenings to keep metabolism working well.194
The less like water the color of your urine looks, the more water you need to be drinking!

-It is finally starting to get green around here!-
It has been a heck of a week around here. Starting on Sunday afternoon, my websites were under attack. We experienced what is called a DDOS attack. If you want to know what that is, you can read here. DDOS Attack. It was a nasty, illegal attack that virtually shut down all of my websites, Rawmazing, Shooting the Kitchen and Susan Powers Photography. Apparently SusanPowersPhotography.com was the victim of the attack but since all of my sites are on the same server, the server was completely overwhelmed and all the sites went down.
What is so frustrating with these attacks is that it takes a while to figure out what is going on. The first 8 hours were spent trying different fixes. I went to bed thinking we had everything under contro, only to wake up early the next morning to find that all of my sites had been suspended. We located the problem, cleaned it up and it was off to business as usual, until the scrip regenerated. At that point, we realized that it was a very nasty attack and the only thing to do was to completely delete my photography site.
A lot of people think that there is a whole team here. A tech department, a shipping department, many people running around doing everything it takes to make Rawmazing what it is. The truth is that it is just me. So when stuff like this happens, it is extremely stressful. I do have to give some props to my friend, Mark the Geek, who selflessly takes pity on me in times like this and points me in the right direction.
After 2 days of fighting to keep all the sites up, Rawmazing and Shooting the Kitchen survived unscathed but SusanPowersPhotography was a total loss. At that point, I decided to completely rebuild and redo the entire site starting from scratch. I am thrilled with how it turned out but not thrilled at having spent the last 2 1/2 days working on it from sun-up to sun-down. If you want, you can check out the new site here: www.SusanPowersPhotography.com And before I get any comments…I shoot that food, I don't eat it.
While all of this was happening, Facebook required that we upgrade the Rawmazing Facebook Page. What happened next has me completely baffled. Somehow our "like" page that was set up for followers of this website and other friends of Rawmazing, has become an open group and feels completely out of control to me. I am in the process of recreating a specific page for Rawmazing on FB but it is frustrating that all of the people that were following, and all of the posts that are there will be gone. On the other hand, I am not comfortable with the fact that the page has now become a free-for-all. It is difficult when you have worked to hard to create a common sense, friendly brand, only to see it used in a way you had never entended. I will keep you updated as to when the page is ready, if you are interested in following on FB.
This week has been a bit of a bust. I have some beautiful recipes for you that will be posted soon, so hang in there…we are finally back to normal and after I take a deep breath, I will be back in the kitchen!

Secure Waiting Space: Men in transition
Friday, 02 April 2010 13:38
Julie Desmond • Plan Your Career
This morning, people all over America woke up in a bed, hit the snooze on the alarm, and eventually dragged themselves through a shower routine and out the door. They might have thought, "this is going to be a great day," or they might have thought, "I hope I don't get fired today." The challenges of getting a job and keeping it are daunting enough. For the homeless, reporting to work or school every day is a challenge that must seem insurmountable. Add, I hope I can find a place to shower, to the morning thoughts list, and having a great day takes on a completely different meaning. Fortunately, for homeless men in the Twin Cities, a place called Secure Waiting Space makes the morning routine possible.

Seasoned workers, you know who you are. You are the people who remember video cassettes, and life without them. You are the people who still polish your own shoes and iron your own jeans. You are the people who did things in the 70s that you are no longer proud of. You are experienced, knowledgeable, reliable and hire-able, and the reality is, you are unlikely to retire any time soon.

Social Security to provide helpful health care information to over 3 million disability applicants each year

Michael J. Astrue, Commissioner of Social Security, announced the agency is providing helpful health care information and website links to the more than three million individuals who apply each year for Social Security and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) disability benefits. The website links take disability applicants to two U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) websites – www.healthfinder.gov where they will find information and tools to help them better understand and cope with their conditions; and www.healthfinder.gov/rxdrug where they may be able to get help paying for prescription drugs.

Top five reasons to fill out the 2010 census form
Friday, 12 March 2010 14:49
Better Business Bureau Tips for Consumers
Every ten years the US federal government is required to count every man woman and child in the country. Not surprisingly, the census is a massive undertaking requiring the work of more than a million people to accurately count the hundreds of millions of people living in the country. Contrary to the myths, participation in the census is extremely safe and easy, and the Better Business Bureau (BBB) of Minnesota and North Dakota encourages everyone to take a few minutes to fill out their census form when it arrives in the mail in March.

Specialized Toupe Gel £78.29
High end perch combines low weight and comfort
Weight 205g Contact www.specializeduk.com
Previous Review
Next Review
No, Specialized have not branched out into hairpieces, rather the Toupe is a high end minimalist perch brimming with space age materials and surprising levels of comfort.
Available in a choice of durable black or white the micro-matrix weather-resistant faux leather covering, hollow titanium rails and carbon fibre reinforced shell combine low weight with durability. The patented BG cutaway, designed to relieve pressure on the prudendal nerve, improving blood flow to the genital area is further supplemented with a very thin gel layer and the availability of three widths (130,143 &155mm) – the width of saddlle that's right for you is determined by the width of your sit bones (rather than the size of you rear end) and to some extent your style of riding.
Traditionally saddle choice has been based upon word of mouth or trial and error whereas the body geometry concept is concerned with tailoring an anatomically perfect rider fit. Our 143mm test model, far from randomly chosen was based upon my own measurements taken at an earlier BG consultation- a very thorough, holistic analysis of rider dimension and corresponding component sizing.
This is pivotal to getting the best from the Body Geometry range (shoes, saddles, gloves, shorts) and whilst £125 for a 90-minute analysis does seem expensive, it ensures precision and therefore maximum comfort if you were going to buy something from the complete Body Geometry range doing otherwise could be considered false economy especially if you consider the cost of experimenting with high end components.
That said, if you don't want to go the whole hog and you are just after a saddle, your Specialized dealer should be able to measure you up for one (for free) with the Specialized Assometer – a pad of memory foam you sit on which leaves an impression of your sit bones with a chart on the back relating the resulting measurements to saddle sizes.
The Toupe's low profile demanded I raise my seat post by an inch or so, nearing the limit mark, which might demand a longer seat post for some- especially taller riders aboard compact frames. In contrast to my old BG comp, the toupe felt very firm but as the rides and mileage racked up it has proven immensely comfortable and very supportive-even after several continuous hours.
The titanium rails and carbon reinforcement provide welcome damping over uneven surfaces - I even took it off road with no problems – and I'm no off-roader – which suggests it might be a viable option for 'cross. The micro-matrix cover is more durable than it looks, shrugging off accidental brushes with brickwork and street furniture.
Water repellence is excellent, minimising any likelihood of slippage, but by the same token it doesn't present the restrictive sensation of being anchored to a sheet of fly-paper.
with the Toupe, I was measured and all that palaver, but still it caused me all sorts of grief.
It was fine for the first few weeks, I'd even say it was comfortable. But it seems to put too much emphasis on the sit bones, and after a few hundred miles it seemed to build up to the point were I became really sensitive to it.
I finally ended up with a condition called Ischial Bursitis which was pretty unpleasant, a switch back to a different sadlle (Fizik Arione) and a fair bit of rest, ice and ibuprofen eventually made it better, so for me the Toupe was not a good fit. It seems good as long as you don't spend hours on end on it, which I do unfortunaltely.
Saddles really are a very subjective....errr...subject.

There have been no changes in carrier or active ingredients since day one.
Formeron is still the king of OTC AI's.
I haven't used it in almost two years, and it was great back then. Noticeably better than some of the RC's I have used. I haven't been in the game for a while, so I just wanted to see if any changes have been made since back then, and to make sure the stuff was still kicking ass. Need a good AI on back up for my upcoming cycle.

Hi Brundel,
What do you think of Formeron as a stand alone product? I've been researching over again and see that it's usually recommended to be run with a SERM but that only seems to be the case when you're taking a product that causes aromatization. On another forum called Blue Light I see some moderators totally condemning suicidal AI's altogether and this worries me because I'm on my second cycle of a suicidal AI the first having been Forma Stanzol.
I'm 25 years old and I work out intensely every other day, I understand the scheme of short intense workouts coupled with calisthenics and heavy lifting. My diet is mostly clean except for when I drink heavy if you know what I mean. I've seen results on my own by weighing 164 at 5'7" with bf at 15.2% but got on a heavy egg eating diet as recommended by Vince Gironda (stupid or not?) bumped up to '72 with bf at 18% most recently back to 167 at 16.1% bf, my goal is just to be at about 170 with about 14 or 13% bf.
Can Formeron as a stand alone help me achieve this goal? I have Winstrol and Dianabol on deck and am beginning to understand the use of SERM's but want to know how Formeron works in my case. Thank you for any and all feedback.
SERMS should only be used for PCT or in extreme gyno cases. Period.
AI's work very well. Bluelight is a recreational drug forum not a steroid forum or AI forum. Its like me starting a thread here condemning Heroin.
Except Heroin you really do want to avoid lol.
AI's are great for maintaining healthy estro levels on cycle or for increasing test during PCT.
Or...solo for bumping up test levels.
Formeron at 4 pumps is pretty anabolic.
I would not every use Dbol or winstrol without testosterone. Period.

Legally, children under 18 generally cannot make important decisions on their own, such as education, residency, and medical care. Instead, major decisions are made by their custodian(s). In the absence of a court order, the custodians of a child will be the parents.
Obviously, children cannot be divided like properties upon divorce or separation. The children must live with one parent or the other, and major decisions have to be made on behalf of the children from time to time. In many cases, the court will award "custody" to one parent, making that parent responsible for making decisions on behalf of the children.
Most parents are emotionally attached to their children; in a bitterly contested divorce, both spouses are afraid that the other will take the children away and never be seen again, or that the spouse who has custody will intentionally make bad decisions for the children. In my experience, 8 out of 10 clients who come to me for family law cases are contemplating the scenario above and insist that they must have sole custody of the children.
However, the scenario they have been contemplating is (fortunately) usually far from reality. In most cases, the non-custodial parent will have "access" to the children and is entitled to be informed of the children's well-being. The non-custodial parent, although not legally entitled to make the decisions for the children, generally has input into major decisions regarding the children's education, residency, and religious upbringing.
The law dictates that the best interests of the children must prevail when awarding custody. It is now well-recognized that in the absence of compelling reasons, the children should have as much contact with both parents as possible. Only in exceptional circumstances would the non-custodial parent's right to access be terminated.
I generally advise my clients that meaningful, regular access to the children can be more important than custody. Rather than spending tens of thousands of dollars on a custody battle, the parties may be better off to work out a schedule allowing maximum contact between the children and both parents – and spend the cash somewhere else.

Take that Google
In a single move, IBM to join OpenJDK, Oracle kicks the Google's butt twice.
I can't restrain myself to read the press release like this:
- Oracle is also an Open Source champion.
- Sorry but your Android is based on a dead project (ironically named Harmony).
It's most probably unfair, but I find this move is brilliant.
So Google is the fall guy ... until the next press release :)

by jshohel - 2010-10-19 12:34
I really do not see how the law suite was a kick butt, and now pulling IBM from Harmony is again a kick butt. Specially when still its not sure who will win the suite. Lets consider the worst case, that Google will loose, what will happen then? I will say nothing, its not a rally biggie for Google to implement sub set of class libraries (but not hole as Java) by themselves.
Second thing is, pulling IBM from Harmony might create some impact on Harmony project, but I really don't think that it will be really biggie again. I understand author's comment "dead project (ironically named Harmony).", because he is from Oracle/Sun, which has parallel product.
There is no doubt that the author is biased or don't really know what he is talking about. All he is doing is speculating and making random comments, that anything Oracle does against Google is kick butt ;)

by Anonymous - 2010-10-14 03:51Larry acquires Sun and run some ads "We have a full stack and we are comming for you IBM" and shortly after Larry is now dragging IBM with a leash around IBMs neck - I'm impressed! :) But post-trial Oracle will still only have javame which will continue to be unattractive while Google will continue its success with Android and have won over the devs who don't like Oracles aggressive patent game..
It is not that big for Google
by Anonymous - 2010-10-13 11:13It is not that big for Google to move forward with Java for Android based on Harmony. Think! They should not support that bloated Swing /Awt code. They could just remove this garbage. It leaves rather compact code to support/develop.

by Anonymous - 2010-10-13 11:02It may be brilliant for the legal point of view. But in the mobile area Oracle/Sun has nothing even close to Android. J2ME is dead for some years, Personal Java is dead, SavaJ is dead as well (aka J2SE mobile device). JavaFX was dead from the start. So Oracle has nothing today except of cause this brilliant move :)

by Anonymous - 2010-10-13 08:14Android is amazing because Google has done so well. If android is stopped, it'll be a serious loss for consumers (and developers). I just don't see how that's a win for oracle/sun.
Yeah. The article states
by Anonymous - 2010-10-13 09:47Yeah. The article states that its bad if you are a "Google or an Android developer." I'm neither, but what about consumers? People who are looking to Android for a way out of the lock-in of Apple and Microsoft? Oracle is making enemies out of the people who they most want to be future customers.

by fabriziogiudici - 2010-10-11 15:32
Brilliant, is brilliant. And it makes clear which is Oracle's strategy, lawsuit included. To understand whether is good or bad for the community will take some time.
BTW, while this is probably a sink for Harmony, is not automatically a sink for Android: Google is clearly able to sustain the development on its own, but "alone" also adds another perspective. It's clear that Oracle wants Google to align on OpenJDK too.
Take that Google
by forax - 2010-10-12 11:18
Don't underestimate the cost of developing something as big as the JDK.
I don't think that aligning Android library to use OpenJDK is easy because Android Java library use Apache licence (ASL) which is know to be incompatible with the GPLv2.
I am afraid they do not need
by Anonymous - 2010-10-14 00:02I am afraid they do not need to develop full JDK as you see it. Google needs just some of JDK packages for Android. The list of the packages needed is pretty short. You do not all Swing /AWT stack.
