Quite possibly the best deal on Kauai, Mango Hale is a generous, clean, 3-bedroom house with a 4th bedroom/studio option for larger groups. Nestled below a landscaped, sloped berm off the highway, and sheltered by enormous fruit-bearing mango trees, Mango Hale is directly adjacent to shopping, restaurants and a 5 minute walk to one of Kauai's most beautiful beaches, Kalapaki Bay.
There are few accommodations on our mostly rural island that can boast "rental car optional". Mango Hale is most definitely in this category. Walk to Kalapaki Beach Hut for breakfast, enjoy cocktails, dinner and sporting events at JJ's Broiler right across the highway, or peruse the many shops of Anchor Cove and Harbor Shopping Malls--all by foot. A quick drive to the airport and the center of Lihue Town, Mango Hale presents a unique opportunity to be close to everything that Kauai's East shore has to offer for a fraction of what most vacation rentals cost.
Imagine accommodating your entire family of 8 for less than the cost of a single hotel room.
Kalapaki Bay enjoys year-round beginner surf swells. Activities on Kalapaki bay are constant; watch the outrigger paddlers racing their canoes, take kayaks provided in your stay out in the bay or just enjoy the hot sun and powdered sugar sand of Kauai's East facing beaches just across the highway from you. Some of Kauai's only beachfront restaurants are at Kalapaki and local nightlife is close enough to walk.
Budget travelers will be greeted by this charming, plantation style home. The generously proportioned 3 bedroom, 2 full bath main house can accommodate up to 6 travelers. A large studio with full bath and sitting area can be rented additionally to accommodate 2 more travelers. Each room is tastefully decorated in authentic Hawaiiana. The home is bright, cheerful, clean and has cable TV, Wireless internet access, a fully appointed kitchen and dining area. Ideal for students, surfers, families and groups, Mango Hale enjoys an epic proximity to one of the most vibrant parts of the Garden Island.
Mango Hale is able to provide such ideal, budget pricing because of its location directly adjacent to Rice Street feeding into Kalapaki Bay and Nawiliwili Harbor. As such, there can be considerable road noise at peak traffic hours to one of the bedrooms and light to moderate road noise to the entire house. A white noise machine is provided for the road-adjacent room.

Two men face charges in Illinois store Black Friday shooting
CHICAGO — Debbie Turner was leaving a Chicago area Kohl's store with her daughter when she saw a police officer, his shirt off and his shoulder bandaged, getting into an ambulance. Other officers were taking a man into custody.
Then she saw her car, surrounded by crime tape and not far from a black Pontiac Sunfire with a side window shot out.
Turner had been inside the store with her 26-year-old daughter Meghan Thursday night, getting a jump on holiday deals with a crowd of other shoppers, when a suspected shoplifter was shot by police after dragging an officer in the parking lot, authorities said.
"I didn't hear a thing," said Turner, of Lockport.
The crime scene caused a spectacle in the bustling parking lot but did not halt shopping at the department store. People stared and took photos before walking around the yellow tape blocking one of the store's entrances.
The commotion began about 10 p.m. when police were alerted to a theft in progress at the store, Romeoville Police Chief Mark Turvey said. Police officers waited outside the store and soon saw two men bringing a shopping cart out of the store toward the Sunfire, police and witnesses said. One of the suspects ran toward the Sunfire, police said. An officer caught up with him but the suspect "closed the car door on the officer's arm, not allowing the officer to disengage from the vehicle," police said in a statement. "The driver then drove away, dragging the officer with the vehicle.
"A second responding officer verbally ordered the driver multiple times to stop the vehicle as it continued in the parking lot, dragging the officer," the statement said. "After repeated orders to stop, the officer fire three to four shots at the driver."
The driver, 52, was wounded in the left arm, police said. The Sunfire stopped and the driver and a passenger were arrested. A third suspect was arrested in the store.
Felony charges were filed against two suspects Friday morning: Robert Russell, 51, of the 500 block of Francis Avenue, and Gerald Chamberlain, 28, of the 1300 block of Englewood.

|Admissions and Degree Requirements
Chair: James Leighton, Ph.D
Dir. of Admissions: David Reichman, Ph.D
Dir. of Graduate Studies: Ruben Gonzalez, Ph.D.
Office: 344 Havemeyer Hall; Tel: 212.854.2433
For more than a century the Columbia Chemistry Department has played a major role in the development of the study of chemistry in the U.S. Until World War II, Columbia University dominated the academic scene by numbers, graduating more Ph.D.s and staffing more academic posts in chemistry than any other U.S. university. Since the 1940's graduate programs have grown and expanded at many other institutions, and now Columbia is known more for quality than for quantity. The department runs one of the best graduate research and training programs in the country, famous for its lively intellectual atmosphere and for the intensity of effort put forth by its faculty and students.
The first year of graduate study is largely given to course work, the course requirements for each student being determined individually in accordance with previous training and interests. To some extent during the first year, and increasingly thereafter, students are engaged in research for the doctoral dissertation. Research is the most important part of the graduate program, and the selection of a sponsor to guide the research is the most important decision a student makes. To help with this decision every faculty member discusses his or her research at a symposium held during the first term. Students choose a sponsor only after attending this symposium and talking privately with at least three faculty members. All students are expected to complete the degree requirements and defend their theses within five years of entry into the program. The system works well; the percentage of entering students who complete the program is very high, and about twenty-five Ph.D. degrees in chemistry are awarded by the University each year.
Columbia offers a remarkable variety of seminars in all areas of chemistry as part of the graduate program, and the department maintains comprehensive support services and the wide array of complex instrumentation necessary to modern chemical research. The department is housed in three connected buildings: Havemeyer Hall, a magnificent limestone and brick structure built in 1897 and recently renovated into modern labs in a manner that respects the dignity of the original structure; Chandler Laboratories, named for the famous Columbia chemist and founder of the American Chemical Society; and Havemeyer Addition, a well-designed combination of teaching and research labs completed a number of years ago.
Fellowships are awarded in recognition of academic achievement and in expectation of scholarly success. Teaching experience is considered an important aspect of the training of graduate students, so all graduate fellowships include some teaching apprenticeship.
Full-Time Degree Programs: M.A., M.Phil., Ph.D.
The requirements listed below are special to this department and must be read in conjunction with the general requirements of the Graduate School.
Comprehensive Examinations
All graduate students are required to take comprehensive examinations on the material of undergraduate chemistry courses during the registration period preceding their first term of residence. The results are used in advising the student on the choice of courses, and if the student does not achieve sufficiently high standing on one or more of these examinations, he or she must retake the comparable examination given later inthe year.
Students in the doctoral program receive three degrees in the course of fulfilling the Ph.D. requirements in the Department of Chemistry: the M.A.,M.Phil., and Ph.D. degrees.
The department accepts only candidates for the Ph.D. degree. The M.A. degree is awarded as the first step toward the Ph.D. The requirements, which must be met satisfactorily by the end of the second year, are listed below.
For the M.A. Degree
Required courses: Students must take the equivalent of five 4.5 point graduate-level courses (two 2.5 point courses are considered equivalent to one 4.5 point course). The courses must be selected from at least two of the following categories, with the equivalent of at least one 4.5 point course (or two 2.5 point courses) taken outside a student's declared research area: (1)physical and theoretical chemistry; (2) organic chemistry; (3) inorganic chemistry; (4) biophysical chemistry. All courses must be completed to the satisfaction of the graduate committee by the end of the student's second year of study. The graduate committee monitors the academic progress of first year graduate students and in general expects students to maintain at least a B+ average.
Students may be exempted from a course if they have previously taken an equivalent course at another institution and pass an exam given by the instructor at Columbia on the course material.
Examinations: The comprehensive examinations described above.
Residence Units: Two.
Required courses: Same as for the M.A. degree. Depending on the student's interests and field of specialization, additional courses may be taken for either letter grade or R credit. The course programs of all students must be approved by the Graduate Committee of the department.
Teaching requirement: Participation in the instructional activities of the department for a minimum of one and a half years. As a rule, for three semesters in the first and second years of study, students gain exposure to teaching as recitation and laboratory leaders.
Examinations: Six cumulative examinations in inorganic,biophysical, organic, and/or physical chemistry. In addition, each student is required to submit and defend a report on research progress at the end of the spring term of the second year of graduate study and is required to submit and defend an original research proposal in the fall term of the fourth year of study.
Residence Units: Six (including the two for the M.A.), at least four of which must be completed at Columbia. The department recommends candidates for the M.Phil. degree upon satisfactory completion of all the requirements.
For the Ph.D. Degree: A candidate for the Ph.D. degree must have earned the M.Phil. degree at Columbia. The student must prepare, with the approval of his or her sponsor, a dissertation embodying the student's original research and must successfully defend it in a final examination before a committee of the faculty. It is expected that the thesis defense occurs before the end of the fifth year of graduate study at Columbia.
Note: Programs leading to the Ph.D. degree in chemical physics are offered under the auspices of the Doctoral Program Subcommittee on Chemical Physics.JOINT TRAINING PROGRAM WITH BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES
The departments of Chemistry and of Biological Sciences offer a joint training program, the Chemical and Molecular Basis of Life Processes. The departments cooperate closely in administering programs of courses and subsequent graduate training in the chemical aspects of molecular biology, including biochemistry and biophysical chemistry. Dual sponsorship of graduate research is possible under this program. Students interested in these areas may apply to either department.GRADUATE COMMITTEE
The Graduate Committee supervises the doctoral program and examines the status of all graduate students at regular intervals. A satisfactory rate of progress toward an advanced degree is required at all times. A student whose progress is insufficient may at any time be requested to withdraw.FINANCIAL AID
A comprehensive program of financial aid is available, including fellowships and appointments in teaching and research. All Ph.D.students receive the annual prevailing stipend and appropriate tuition and health fees for five years, provided that they remain in good academic standing. If students receive a year of advanced standing they are entitled to only four years of fellowship funding.HOW TO APPLY

Detailed Description:
The metabolic syndrome (MetS) portends diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Dyslipoproteinaemia, reflected by elevated plasma triglyceride and reduced high-density lipoprotein (HDL) concentrations, is a cardinal feature of MetS that independently predicts CVD and is accordingly a therapeutic target for risk reduction. GW5015156 is a new PPAR-delta agonist that could be used to treat dyslipidemia in insulin resistance and obesity. However, the precise mechanisms of action of this agent on lipoprotein kinetics in MetS subjects have not yet fully been investigated. We therefore carried out a study to study the effect of GW5015156 on lipoprotein transport in subject with metabolic syndrome.

Capitol Report – Correction to Amendment 1
Unfortunately, when finalizing this week's Capitol Report, a sentence was accidently deleted from the paragraph to the Amendment 1 – Right to Farm summary. Please see below the correct summary.
Amendment 1 – Right to Farm
Amendment 1 will give Missouri voters the opportunity to enact a constitutional amendment affirming the right of farmers and ranchers to engage in farming and ranching practices. Known as the "Right to Farm" bill, it would, upon voter approval, "ensure that the right of Missouri citizens to engage in agricultural production and ranching practices shall not be infringed." The amendment would prevent changes made to state law that infringe on the rights of farmers. The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS), People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), and other groups that would love to end all animal agriculture in our state vehemently oppose this measure, because it makes it much more difficult for them to enact their agenda through legislation/ballot measures (which they are in a continual process of trying). There has already been a considerable amount of political spin/rhetoric surrounding this issue, with some saying that "the language is vague," "this would unduly protect agriculture," or "this will benefit corporate producers." The truth is this; Amendment 1 will benefit and protect all of agriculture (small, large, private or corporate) across our state from those individuals/groups that do not have our interests or food supply as a concern.
As always, please do not hesitate to call or write me anytime with your questions or thoughts on these or any other issues. My Capitol office is 573.751.1490 and my email is firstname.lastname@example.com. Thank you for the honor to serve as your Representative in the Missouri House of Representatives.
Working on your behalf,
Representative Robert Ross
Proudly Serving the 142nd House District
Texas, Howell, Phelps, & Pulaski Counties

Your Ideal Tampa Home Office
The California Closets Home Office Quiz
When I enter my home office, I want to feel:
a) creatively inspired, ready to invent and discover
b) highly effective -- like I can get what I need to get done in 20 minutes, tops
c) as if I were in my outside office -- but with better coffee!
The most important thing to have in a home office is:
a) lots of open desk space to spread out my papers
b) incredible filing and organizing systems
c) a communications hub -- phone, videoconferencing, etc.
The only rule I would make for my home office is:
a) if you enter, you have to collaborate with me and share ideas
b) absolutely no food or drink!
c) if you see the red light, it means "Do Not Disturb"
What Kind of Home Office Do You Need?
If you answered "a" to most of the questions, your ideal home office type is Creative. You want your Tampa home office to be a place where you can create, undisturbed when you need to be alone, but welcome to visitors to help you with brainstorming and feedback.
If you answered "b" to most of the questions, your ideal home office type is Functional. You plan to use the space to work on the family finances, or focus completely on some of your own work projects. It is important to you that the space remain clean and clear of all clutter, because one mislabeled item or misplaced document will cost you time that you don't have.
If you answered "c" to most of the questions, your ideal home office type is Connected. You need your home office to be an extension of your real office, so that you can be just as efficient working from home as you would in your downtown Tampa office. Phone, internet, video -- you name it, if it helps you communicate, you'll need it in this home office.
Get started today by speaking with a California Closets Tampa design consultant to create your ideal home office.

Kazvin, also spelled Qazvīn , city, Markazī (Tehrān) ostān (province), north-central Iran, in a wide, fertile plain at the southern foot of the Elburz Mountains. Originally called Shad Shāhpūr, it was founded by the Sāsānian king Shāpūr I about ad 250. It flourished in early Muslim times (7th century), serving as a base for Islamization, and was surrounded by strong fortifications by Hārūn al-Rashīd. Genghis Khan laid waste the city; however, it revived under the Ṣafavids when Shāh Ṭahmāsp I (ruled 1524–1576) moved the capital from Tabriz to Kazvin. The city lost its eminence once again when ʿAbbās I (the Great; ruled 1588–1629) transferred the government to Isfahan in 1598. Nāder Shāh assumed the crown in Kazvin shortly after his return from invading India in 1739 and before returning to Meshed, then capital of Iran. Āghā Moḥammed Khān of the Qājār dynasty reestablished Kazvin about 1796 as a major base for foreign trade with the Caspian Sea, Persian Gulf, and Asia Minor. Interference by Russia and Britain in the internal politics of Iran in the 19th century and the autocratic rule of the country resulted in unrest and the growth of a nationalist movement. The city fell to a nationalist force from Rasht in 1909. The British established a military headquarters in Kazvin in the 1920s; a coup d'état was launched from Kazvin in 1921 that led to Iran's consolidation under Reza Shah Pahlavi. There were riots and fighting between the local people and the Iranian army during the Iranian Revolution in 1978–79.
Kazvin is a regional communications centre, connected by road and rail with Tehrān and Tabriz and by road with the Caspian Sea and Hamadan. Industries include cloth weaving, cotton ginning, wool carding, flour milling, food processing, and electrical equipment manufacturing. There is also a thermoelectric plant, and a modern poultry-raising complex was developed with the help of the former Agricultural Development Bank of Iran. Buildings dating from the time of the Seljuq sultans include the Jāmiʿ Masjid (Friday Mosque); the Madrasah Haidariye, a square hall surmounted by a cupola; the tomb of Mostowfi, the Persian traveler; and the mosque of the shah. In the mountains about 37 miles (60 km) northeast of Kazvin are the remains of a castle of the Assassins. Pop. (2006) 355,338.

Focussed on the activities of five friends on a weekend, Danny's portrayal in Human Traffic captures the ups and downs of modern youth in contending with the responsibilities of life, while being a part of the club and chemical culture that is rife in Britain. Although his first film, Danny gives a masterful performance on a generation battling with social institutions, peer pressure, drugs and British nightlife.

|The Game Story:
|MEDFORD - Sophomore Devin Clarke (Ridgewood, NJ) blistered a shot off
the post and into the net with just 36 seconds remaining to lift the
Tufts University Jumbos over the Bates Bobcats, 10-9, in NESCAC Men^Ys
Lacrosse action this afternoon in Medford. With the win, Tufts clinched
one of the seven berths into the upcoming NESCAC playoffs.
The winning goal was Clarke^Ys second of the game, and he also chipped in with two assists to lead all Jumbo scorers. The victory lifted the Jumbos to 7-3 overall and 4-2 in the NESCAC, while Bates fell to 5-9 overall and 1-7 in league play.
The game was evenly played as each of the first three quarters ended deadlocked. Tufts had 4-1 second-quarter lead and an 8-5 third-quarter margin that Bates was able to erase before the periods ended. After the teams scored five goals apiece in the third quarter, there was only one goal in a tense final stanza and it proved to be the difference.
Tufts sophomore goalie Luke Chicco (Merrick, NY) made 15 saves for the win. Senior Alex Kerwin (Bethesda, MD) had an excellent game for Tufts registering a hat trick. The Bobcats got four goals and an assist from leading scorer Brad Frost (Winchester, MA). Senior Mark Dobbyn (Warren, RI) made 10 saves in the Bobcat cage.
This was the fourth straight year that Bates and Tufts played a heart-stopping, one-goal game. The last two were won by Bates in overtime.

B&C Morning Show: Craig Goes Off On A Superman Tangent
August 24, 2011 7:30 AM
Boomer & Carton Read More
During one of Jerry's updates this morning, Craig made an innocuous comment about Superman, and that got the ball rolling on a mini-tangent regarding the superhero's love life.
Craig claimed that Superman should have had his pick of the litter when it came to women, and that he settled when he chose Lois Lane to be his one and only gal.
Jerry tried to play the 'Clark Kent was a nerd' card, but Craig wasn't having that excuse, because even with that said Clark was still a handsome man. He even went as far as to say that Lois Lane was a nag, and hammered home the point that Superman sold himself way short.

A selection of works from the exhibition
Paul Mellon (1907-1999) was one of the most passionate and discerning art collectors of the twentieth century. Dedicated to the mission of the National Gallery of Art, which was founded in 1937 by his father, Andrew W. Mellon, Paul Mellon provided both visionary leadership and magnanimous financial support. Just as Andrew Mellon had underwritten the construction of the original West Building, the East Building came into being through the extraordinary philanthropic support of Paul Mellon and his sister, Ailsa Mellon Bruce. The first president of the Gallery's board of trustees, Mr. Mellon served as a trustee in various key roles from 1938 to 1985, a period of almost fifty years, interrupted only by his military service during World War II. During the many years of his active board leadership, and even after he stepped down and became an honorary trustee, Paul Mellon's intense commitment to the quality of this museum, and his devotion to the idea of the National Gallery as the nation's artistic standard-bearer, assured its position among the first rank of the world's great art institutions.
Mr. Mellon contributed to the National Gallery more than one thousand carefully selected, distinguished works of art--primarily French and American paintings and drawings--originally acquired for his and his wife's private enjoyment, but always with the idea that they would one day be shared with the American public. He cared deeply about creating a gracious and hospitable setting for museum visitors and about providing the opportunity for direct encounters with great works of art. He commented in 1967, "There is no intellectual or emotional substitute for the authentic, the original, the unique masterpiece." Paul Mellon was a sincere and devoted art collector in whose life works of art were integral. In this exhibition, honoring his memory and celebrating his matchless contributions to the cultural life of the United States, only a fraction of his gifts to the nation are on view. This selection demonstrates that the range and quality of his collection, now a part of the American cultural patrimony, are unparalleled, a loving bequest of beauty to his country.

Fimble File of Newspaper Clippings 1901-1944
The Fimble File of Newspaper Clippings is a collection of three scrapbooks containing obituary notices and other clippings from the Victoria Advocate and other area newspapers. The 3 scrapbooks cover the period from 1901 to about 1944.

Did you know that summer leeks are traditional on Sephardic tables on Rosh Hashanah? I did not. Here's how it goes:
The Aramaic word for leeks is "karti", which is very similar to the Hebrew, "yikartu", meaning to "cut off". We pray that our enemies will be "cut off", allowing for safety and security of the Jewish people and all of our friends.
Long, layered stalks of Leeks are neatly lined up in your local markets now along with the long-awaited abundance of perfectly ripe tomatoes and gorgeous eggplants.
This is how we connect seasonal ingredients to holiday dishes. Yup, it goes beyond apples and pomegranates, for sure.
This deeply delicious side dish is called Imam Bayeldi. The story goes that when the Imam (substitute Rabbi, Guru, Minister, Priest, Deacon) tasted it, he fainted from pleasure.
Ok then. You may want to consider making this and providing smelling salts for your guests.
Imam Bayeldi may be made 2-3 days in advance and served at room temperature. It highlights end of summer tomatoes and eggplant and is savory with an abundance of leeks.
If you like to make your side dishes ahead of the holidays, you'll love this one. It only gets better as it rests and patiently waits to be devoured.
Thank you, Ronnie Fein, Stamford author of Hip Kosher and blogger at Kitchen Vignettes, for this super easy and beautiful side dish.

Hot Or Not? Selena Gomez Gets A Bit Bridal At Glamour Women Of The Year Awards
In light of her recent split with Justin Bieber, it seems a bit funny (not funny haha but like funny hmmmm) that Selena Gomez would show up at an event like the Glamour Women Of The Year Awards on Nov 12 shortly after the announcement wearing this outfit which looks a WEE TINY BIT like a wedding dress. Not like a beautiful princess wedding dress but more like a second-time-around wedding where you don't want to wear an extravagant gown because that's tacky so you wear something more subtle and streamlined.
What do you think of her dress choice? Do you like it or is it a bit weird?

Physical and Electrical Performance of Vapor–Solid Grown ZnO Straight Nanowires
1 Department of Physical Chemistry, University of Science and Technology Beijing, Beijing, China
2 Institute of Microstructure and Properties of Advanced Material, Beijing University of Technology, Beijing, China
Nanoscale Research Letters 2008, 4:165-168 doi:10.1007/s11671-008-9218-1Published: 3 December 2008
Physical and electrical properties of wurtzitic ZnO straight nanowires grown via a vapor–solid mechanism were investigated. Raman spectrum shows four first-order phonon frequencies and a second-order Raman frequency of the ZnO nanowires. Electrical and photoconductive performance of individual ZnO straight nanowire devices was studied. The results indicate that the nanowires reported here are n-type semi-conductors and UV light sensitive, and a desirable candidate for fabricating UV light nanosensors and other applications.

Hey, Jack and company, thanks for making all that effort to get screenshots a la EGF. However, I had to edit them (read: cover up your personal details). You sent me images showing your contact details, your buddy's mother's PayPal email address, and everything I could use for identity theft (that is, if I were a crook). Good job but next time, take out the ID details, okay?
Moving on…
Here are two of the images contributed by Jack et al:
So as Jack mentioned, no phone verification was made after the payment was received by Susan Express, which was foolish on the part of SSEX because the order details showed that the email address in the contact information was different from the PayPal email. Now such a discrepancy, in my experience, would trigger any gold seller's Fraud department to ring up the customer. WHY THEY LET THIS SLIP IS BEYOND ME! Are they so desperate for a sale that they would just turn a blind eye and go process the order? Man, if that's the case, then any 13-year old who knows his parent's PayPal log-in would surely get away with murder ordering from SSEX. (Ugh, that sounded really bad..and dirty).
Oh, and check out their bizzaro delivery instructions:
From: susan
Subject: SSEX09XXXXXXXXXXXX
Dear XXXXXXX,
Thanks for purchasing gold on our website. Please follow the instructions as below:
1. Could you forward the paypal receipt(payment invoice email) to [email protected]
2. Usually we prefer to use auction house for delivery.
Could you go put 2 bandages for 1060G a piece in Auction House? set "Buyout",48hours(very long). Like this:
bandage(any type) very long(48hrs) char name buyout 1060G
bandage(any type) very long(48hrs) char name buyout 1060G
Total auction amount: 2120G= 2*1060G (The extra gold is a 5% commission fee to AH.)
3. For safety issues, it's better to use a low level characters without the letter (i) in it to put the bandage in AH.
After you done it, pls tell us what stuff and which char you put in AH by email. We will check it,and try our best to buy them out as soon as we can. Thanks.
4. We will make a phone confirmation with you, if you are our new customer. Thanks!
If you have any question and request, welcome to our livechat or MSN or email us anytime. o(∩_∩)o
Waiting for your early reply.
Sales Department
Okay, this is retarded. First, they ask for your toon's name in the order process, then they send this email telling you to use a low level character instead (sort of like your bank alt) to put up the auction at the AH. Why they don't want the letter 'I' in a toon name beggars the imagination.
Now picture 2 bandages selling for 1060g in the AH. As I mentioned 10,000 times, that is akin to screaming to the entire realm that you've made arrangements with a gold seller. Can you be any more obvious?That's about as subtle as a live sex show in the middle of Battery Park! I mean come on, who sells bandages for 1060g????
Oh yeah right, only those who've purchased gold from a Chinese gold seller and foolish enough to listen to their stupid trade instructions.
To be continued.

They are sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo desperate to get a sale. 1 order is very rare for them because players aren't stupid enough to place orders from them. No offense to Jack, though. I mean, it wouldn't be triggered if these spammers won't flood the mails and chatboxes with their nonsense ads.
Mike on 20 Nov 2009 at 11:57 am #
SusanExpress is great as of right now. One: They don't spam in WoW anymore. Two: I always get my gold within 24 hours. They don't have the toon level requirement anymore (I use my main all the time to put up the auctions, probably epicly retarded, I know.) Still no "I" in ur toon name. All I can come up with is that someone there made a mistake once and typed a "J" where an "I" should have been. Who knows. They do use the auction house method, which I will never understand because, as stated above, you are announcing to the whole server (and Blizzard!) that you are buying gold. Why don't they just do a face to face? Whatever the case, I have bought tons of gold from SusanExpress and am happy with the service. Though it still scares me to put that auction up every time.
Mitch on 21 Jan 2010 at 12:07 pm #
Your all freaking retarted. Who has never put something stupid on the AH for an ungodly amount of cash. People with toons on other factions do it all the time. Say you have a 80 human and a 20 Bloodelf and you need some cash. Your Bloodelf puts something stupid, "Bandage" on the AH for 2000G, then you get on you human go to the AH and buy it, basically just like mailing 2000G to another toon. Blizz won't think twice about it because people do it all the time. So if you think about it, its alot smarter dealing through the AH because Blizz cant track it, and it's less obvious than a lvl 1 naked ork running up to you in org and giving you gold in front of everyone. Everyone kinda gets the hint of whats going on there.
Rob on 02 Jun 2010 at 11:59 pm #
The reason they don't want the letter "i" in the name is because the capital "I" and lower case "l" in wow look exactly the same.
Stanley on 08 Jun 2010 at 1:52 am #
Mitch// Not really, because some people make bankalt with random names and maybe sometimes with gibberish because they dont find it necessary to give creative named toward bank alts, so it is hard to tell between someone's bank alt and delivery mule.
Nathan on 26 Apr 2011 at 9:54 pm #
@Everyone… mmosavor is much better. 15minute delivery gaurenteed. Face to face trade! and if you dont receive money within 15minutes, call them and they will make sure you get it!

Eric Gives His Thoughts On The Passing Of The Ultimate Warrior [VIDEO]
After a great weekend celebrating the 30th Wrestlemania, I was so glad that one of my favorite Superstars of all time was finally honored in the WWE Hall of Fame. I got to see The Ultimate Warrior on my TV for the first time in years on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. Unfortunately, on Tuesday, he tragically passed away at the age of 54.
Watch the Warrior beat Hulk Hogan for the WWE Title at Wrestlemania 6 in Toronto. This is still one of my favorite Wrestlemania matches of all time, and I watched it live on Pay-Per-View.
This is one of the greatest surprise moments ever in wrestling, as The Ultimate Warrior returns after a long hiatus to save Hulk Hogan at Wrestlemania 8 in Indianapolis. I was there and the sound was the loudest I've ever heard! I remember trying to yell at my dad who was right next to me, "It's the Warrior!" and he still couldn't hear me.
Here was the promo from this past Monday, the first time, Warrior had appeared on Raw since 1996. It's eerie that he said these words, but I'm so glad we got to see him one more time before his untimely death.

To link to this article, copy this persistent link:
(Sep 21, 2009) The Fisheries Agency under the Council of Agriculture of Taiwan's Executive Yuan (Cabinet) announced on September 14, 2009, that it had reached consensus with mainland China's Fisheries Council on recommending that a fishing cooperation agreement be signed between Taiwan and China through their representative bodies for handling cross-strait ties: Taiwan's Straits Exchange Foundation and China's Association for Relations Across the Taiwan Strait. Maritime safety, fishing resources' conservation, and increased bilateral exchanges would be among the subjects covered by the agreement. In the past, a number of fishing disputes have arisen between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait because of the extensive overlap in the sea areas in which their fishermen operate, but there has been no institutionalized, formal channel to allow resolution of such disputes and other cross-Strait fishing-related issues. (Taipei, Beijing to Ink Pact on Fishery Cooperation, TAIWAN TODAY, Sept. 15, 2009, available at http://taiwantoday.tw/ct.asp?xItem=63745&ctNode=452&mp=9 [citing to the COMMERCIAL TIMES].)
During discussions held from September 5-12, the two sides reached consensus on a broad range of issues, such as establishing a dispute-resolution mechanism, a system for aiding ships in distress, and an information exchange mechanism for the timely correction of illegal practices and increasing "mutually beneficial and complementary" exchanges. They also agreed in future to more strictly enforce laws prohibiting certain fishing practices such as electrocution, poisoning, and blasting of fish and to more tightly control fishing techniques that harm the environment. (Id.)
The two sides failed to reach consensus on the issue of protecting fishery resources. Mainland China requested that Taiwan impose fishing moratoria to allow depleted fish stocks to be replenished; Taiwan responded that while the fishing authorities have tried to encourage the practice, and it is legally binding in some sea areas, it is not possible at present to implement "the same kind of all-encompassing fishing moratoriums that are found on the mainland." (Id.) Taiwan, for its part, objected to the mainland fishermen's practice of trawl net fishing because it results in "extensive ecological harm." The mainland China side foresaw no short-term solution to this issue, but indicated measures would be taken to reduce the practice. (Id.)

Serious fans of the legendary musician John Lennon will now be able to browse over 70 of his private letters thanks to a forthcoming iOS app,.
According to a report by Digital Music News, the app will feature 78 letters from Hunter Davies' book The John Lennon Letters plus a further ten pieces of correspondence which are exclusive to the app.
In addition to this material, which the report claims users will be able to "cut, paste, email, comment, and tweet," the app also features a selection of audio readings from actor Christopher Eccleston and a selection of Beatles music.
A handwritten letter by John Lennon. Picture: AFP
This application, obviously aimed at more-than-casual Lennon fans, is one of several to be dedicated to the singer, with others including John Lennon QuickQuotes ($0.99), John Lennon Educational Tour Bus (free) and simply John Lennon ($0.99), which features some of the musician's musings.
Rare John Lennon letter to Eric Clapton up for auction
John Lennon held out the promise he could bring out more musical greatness in legendary guitarist Eric Clapton in a letter that could fetch as much as $30,000 when it is sold at auction next month, the organizers of the sale said on Monday.
The signed, hand-written letter by the Beatle, who died in 1980 at the age of 40, is one of a selection from some of the world's great musicians that will go under the hammer in Los Angeles at the Profiles in History auction on Dec. 18.
In a draft letter dated Sept. 29, 1971, Lennon expressed his respect and admiration for British guitarist Clapton and suggested that they form a band together.
"Eric, I know I can bring out something great, in fact greater in you that had been so far evident in your music. I hope to bring out the same kind of greatness in all of us, which I know will happen if/when we get together," Lennon wrote in the letter.
Picture: AFP
The letter will hold special significance for Beatles fans as auctioneer Joe Maddalena said it was widely known that there were problems in the Fab Four's relationships with each other, and that Clapton had almost become a Beatle.
Clapton played in the Plastic Ono Band, formed by Lennon and Yoko Ono in 1969 before the breakup of the Beatles in 1970. He also played on the George Harrison song "While My Guitar Gently Weeps", which was on the Beatles' White Album.
"There was a point in time when George Harrison thought about leaving the band and his replacement was Clapton, so this letter is a link of what could have been," Maddalena said.
The letter is one of 300 manuscripts and letters from literary, musical and political greats, that will be auctioned from the holdings of an American collector.
"What we know of history is from the written word, without these letters, it would all be verbal. It's a really unique area of collecting as you're getting a glimpse into people's minds," Maddalena said.
Other highlights include a handwritten letter from George Washington, with a pre-sale estimate of up to $300,000, and a Charles Dickens manuscript with an obituary of novelist William Thackeray, expected to fetch between $40,000 and $60,000.
Also on the auction block is a signed, handwritten letter from German composer Ludwig van Beethoven to Tobias Haslinger, a friend of his publisher, in which the musician discussed the second performance of his Ninth Symphony and the Missa Solemnis, two of his most revered works.
The letter, written in German, is undated, but both the Ninth Symphony and Missa Solemnis debuted in performances in 1824. Because of the rarity of the letter, it is estimated it will sell for between $40,000 and $60,000.

Loss is a natural part of the process of living. Everyone experiences it. Some losses are more painful than others: loss of a loved one, loss through divorce, loss of a job, loss of friends because of a move or retirement.
Loss brings with it another natural and very human response – grief. Like resting when we are tired or drinking when we are thirsty, grieving is a normal, necessary and natural part of staying healthy. It's nature's way of healing an emotional wound.
Grieving can be difficult and emotionally exhausting. But unresolved grief can lead to serious emotional or physical problems. If left unresolved, grief can lead to depression, anxiety, sickness, alcohol or other drug use, or even suicide.
Experts say that the process of grieving can last a year or longer, depending upon the individual and the circumstances. And each person experiences and expresses grief differently. The key to healing from a loss is to let yourself grieve for as long as it takes.
If you have experienced a severe loss, such as the death of a loved one, you may experience the following stages:
Some stages may take longer than others to work through, or something you thought was resolved may reappear. Give yourself time and stay as active as you can – exercise, take a vacation, stay in contact with the world outside. Avoid making major decisions, such as selling your home or changing jobs, for at least a year.
Avoid using alcohol and other drugs to manage your feelings. Their use can lead to serious health problems and may actually delay or block the healing process of grieving. Medications should be monitored carefully and used only under the supervision of a physician.
Just talking about your problems sometimes leads to
new solutions. If you or someone you know needs information, guidance or help, call our Respond
program at 1-800-366-1132. Respond offers
confidential, caring assessments and referrals for individuals dealing with problems related to
mental health issues and substance abuse.
If you or a loved one are experiencing an emergency, please call 911 immediately.

Top car, truck to be named at Detroit auto show
Web Producer: Mekita Rivas
DETROIT (AP) - The press preview days of the North American International Auto Show start with the naming of the North American Car of the Year and North American Truck/Utility of the Year.
The announcements are to be made Monday morning at Cobo Center in Detroit.
Car finalists are the Cadillac ATS, Ford Fusion, and Honda Accord. Truck/utility finalists are the Ford C-Max, Mazda CX-5 and Ram 1500.
The word utility was added this year to reflect the rising number of crossover vehicles.
Forty-nine automotive journalists vote on the winning vehicles from the selected list of finalists.
A vehicle must be all new or substantially changed to be eligible.
This is the 20th year for the awards. Organizers accept no advertising, though carmakers try to capitalize on the marketing value of the honors.

Essie's DIY Nail Wraps Review
Essie Gets In On the Nail Appliqué Trend
Like us on Facebook
To apply the nail appliqué, start off with clean nails. Try using a swipe of nail polish remover to get rid of any stray oils and debris that might prevent the wrap from lasting. Next, find the right sticker for each nail size, peel away from the film, and apply to your nail. Use the provided plastic tool to firmly adhere the sticker to your nail, making sure to press out any air bubbles. Then use the provided nail file to remove the excess.
These wraps are a little firmer than other versions, making them easier to place, but be sure to smooth out the sticker at the tip for a nice finish. And in terms of wear, I have found them to be impressively peel- and chip-resistant, especially if you wait about an hour before getting your nails wet so the wrap has time to fully adhere to your nail. As for removal, swipe on some cuticle oil and peel off. Are you excited to try Essie's version of the nail wrap? Finger's crossed they hit Australian shores soon.
