The last one you lost in wet and the other one in Laguna Seca when your contemporary was riding Yamaha.Hence, you need to mature much more than retiring. In fact MOTOGP has lost it's excitement since Rossi moved to Duc.
When was the last one you three fought and came winners. You guys go in frony and the other two accept that and settle for points.

Hi David
It would be wonderful if there is an option to stop the database from updating itself. Like, if I have several database files from different computers -- when I run Everything in my computer, the database will be overwritten by my own database indexed files. In other words, I would like to be able to index files in different machines and then search within them in my own machine, loading different .db files without overwriting them.


text: Australian artist Kirra Jamison dazzles the eye with colorful paintings filled with unexpected imagery. Jamison incorporates a lot of exciting elements in her work – decorative motif and patterning, unexpected ordinary imagery, repetition and disruption. Her latest series "Spirit is a bone" showcases more of her expressive painting style. Once again it incorporates the theme of duality: harmony and chaos, East and West, the ordinary and the bizarre, the unreal and the natural. Lovely!

When you go to the doctor, you KNOW you're going to have to wait…it's just a matter of how long.
The Huffington Post has some tips that could get you in and out quicker:
The hardest time to get an appointment is Friday at 10:00am. The second-hardest is Friday at 2:00pm. In fact, the toughest times for ANY day of the week are 10:00am and 2:00pm.
Mondays have the shortest average wait times while Thursdays have the longest.
For specific doctors, Mondays are the worst day to see pediatricians, Wednesdays are the worst for dietitians, Fridays are the worst for acupuncturists, and Mondays and Fridays are the worst for chiropractors.
Tuesdays are the best time to try to get a last-minute appointment but they're also the busiest days for doctors.
And even if you hit a doctor's office at their least-busy time, you're still probably looking at a wait of at least 15 minutes.

American Idol: David Archuleta Explains His Split With Record Label
February 25, 2011 09:00 AM by Lisa Princ
The web has been buzzing lately about whether or not American Idol on FOX alumni, David Archuleta was dropped by his record label or not. Despite Jive's claims that they dropped David for lack of sales, David says the record company made him offers to stay. Keep reading to hear what else David Archuleta had to say about the split!
American Idol's season seven alumni David Archuleta is now speaking out about his split with record label, Jive. David tweeted saying "Decisions. They are scary things before knowing what could happen after you make them, but I'm excited for what the future holds." and then later posted a YouTube video where he said "It just felt like the right time to part ways" in regards to Jive records. David went on later to say that he received "offers that I continue working with them, but it just didn't feel like the right thing. I loved working with them, they've been so great, you know, the people there are just awesome … I've learned a lot from them."
But apparently that is not the only split for David Archuleta, who is also said to have split with his management team and of that David had this to say "I realized that this is not where I need to be right now. Not like they were doing anything bad or anything wrong, you know, they've been great." David assures his fans however, that he still writing and doing solo work until he figures out what direction he needs to go in. Sounds to me like David is just realizing that he controls his own life and he needs to take charge which is exactly what he should be doing, so kudos to David Archuleta.

I am setting up the Virtual Environment for my grid-based Webdriver tests. And sure enough, there are problems with IE driver.
First of all, Internet Options → Security should have the same Protected Mode setting. It's an easy fix if you have an access to the browser, but in my case, I won't have physical access to the browser. In Webdriver's FAQ it says you can do the following:
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.internetExplorer();
capabilities.set(InternetExplorerDriver.INTRODUCE_FLAKINESS_BY_IGNORING_SECURITY_DOMAINS, true);
WebDriver driver = new InternetExplorerDriver(capabilities);
Ruby bindings have no reference to setting up this capability in IE. It there a way to code it out in Ruby?
The other thing is what can be done against "unsecure connection" pop-ups? Again, they are easy to deal with manually after the first run, but what about running "clean" IE instance each time?
There are probably more concerns, I'd like to hear your opinion.
Thank you!

Picks are based on fundamental strength
It's not all champagne and caviar
Join the NASDAQ Community today and get free, instant access to portfolios, stock ratings, real-time alerts, and more!
We expect diversified technology company
Emerson Electric Company
) to beat expectations when it reports first quarter 2013
financial results on Feb 5, 2013.
Why a Likely Positive Surprise?
Our proven model shows that Emerson is likely to beat earnings
because it has the right combination of two key ingredients,
namely a positive earnings Expected Surprise Prediction (ESP)
Zacks Earnings ESP: A Better Method
) and a Zacks Rank of #1, 2 or 3.
Positive ESP:
Earnings ESP, which represents the difference between the Most
Accurate estimate and the Zacks Consensus Estimate, is at +3.23%.
This is very meaningful and a leading indicator of a likely
positive earnings surprise for shares.
Zacks #3 Rank (Neutral):
Note that stocks with Zacks Ranks of #1, 2 and 3 have a
significantly higher chance of beating earnings. The sell rated
stocks (#4 and 5) should never be considered going into an
earnings announcement.
The combination of Emerson's Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) and +3.23%
ESP makes us very confident of a positive earnings beat on Feb
What is Driving the Better Than Expected Earnings?
Continued strength in Process Management, increased
investments in energy projects, strong backlog and deferred
recovery of sales from the Thailand flooding are expected to lead
to a positive earnings surprise in the upcoming quarter.
The positive trend is seen in the trailing four-quarter
average surprise of 0.36%, which was greatly helped by the 5.71%
surprise in the last reported quarter. This was possible because
Emerson did a good job of controlling expenses leveraging sales
volume. Strong end markets of the Process Management division
also helped.
Other Stocks to Consider
Emerson is not the only firm looking up this earnings season.
We also see likely earnings beats coming from these 3 industry
Interdigital Inc.
), earnings ESP of +350% and Zacks #2 Rank (Strong Buy)
Juniper Networks Inc.
), earnings ESP of +7.14% and Zacks #2 Rank (Buy)
Clean Energy Fuels Corp.
), earnings ESP of +87.50% and Zacks #2 Rank (Buy)

Human Spaceflight
Neil Armstrong's first steps on the moon marked the pinnacle of achievement of the human spaceflight effort through the sixties. But Apollo was only the last step in a series of spaceflight programs, beginning with the single-seat Mercury, folowed by the Gemini program where Americans learned to live in orbit, and culminating with Apollo 17, the last human mission to the moon.
Since Apollo 17, human spaceflight has continued to achieve new milestones, provide valuable research, and even heal some of the ties severed by the Space Race.

Respond to Review of Vanilla Black
by LaraJames
Review: It's true that if you are vegan you'd better let them know in advance. That's what we've done both the two times we've been there, and we haven't been disappointed. Vanilla Black is a french influenced contemporary vegetarian restaurant, and this is what you'll find here. It's not cheap, and it's not an everyday place to go neither. But a dinner here is an experience that you wont find in any other veggie place in London. For a special occasion, and for something really different and hight quality.

This is what we found interesting from the current issue of the The Economist (July 21st 27th July 2012).
Modern economies aspire for more and more but get less and less.
In my last column about this newspaper, I posed the question as to why its contents are still informed by the economic concepts of the latter part of the previous century. I also urged they include new and more relevant concepts because the economic climate of this century has changed. As Ron Paul says, Our central bankers are intellectually bankrupt. Their mode of thinking being followed by us may be the cause of our 21st century misery.
There are two articles in the issue that may need us to re-think these old concepts. The first article is called Schumpeter| Stephen Covey (p56), and the second Money and the markets, Insatiable longing (p67). The second article is about two new books that probe the limits of capitalism. The first book is by Robert Skidelskdy and Edward Skidelskdy called How Much is Enough? Money and the Good Life and the title of the second book is What Money Cant Buy: The Moral Limits of Markets.
Most policy makers, and economists think that economies have suffered a cyclical downtrend and with the right fiscal policies growth will return. Others, think that this is not cyclical but moral: a love of money, markets and material things (67). In the rich world, the modern economic problem, the Skidelskdys say is how to live well, emit plenty, not how to survive amidst scarcity (67). We are all chasing ways to keep the GDP growing forever. And this does not take into account The blessing of nature, or leisure (67).
Humanity has become insatiable in short says the book by Michael Sandal called What Money Cant Buy: The Moral Limits of Markets. Even if just now, the west could do with more, not less, GDP, the pursuit of wealth for its own sake is folly.

GUEST POST: The German 5 on the rise
By Anna Nartova
In the semifinals of Dubai Duty Free Tennis Open, Julia Goerges defeated Caroline Wozniacki for the third consecutive time, so I thought it was high time to document the whirlwind revival of German women's tennis. Although these girls haven't reached the heights of Steffi Graf yet, having 5 players rising to the WTA Top 40 is more than 'fantastisch.'
Read the rest of "The German 5" after the jump. Click the headline, y'all.
When Graf, one of the greatest players in women's tennis history, left the game to become a mother, German tennis was virtually on the brink of extinction. Yes, there was Anke Huber, Barbara Rittner, and the talented, yet injury-prone, Anna-Lena Groenefeld; but, Germany was desperately looking for bright young talents. It looks like their prayers were heard. Today, with 5 ladies in the Top 40 of the WTA rankings, Germany holds the second place by the number of representatives only behind Russia. As they continue their road to the top of the game, let's check their so different, yet so similar, success stories.
Andrea Petkovic
24 years old; 2 WTA titles; career-high ranking in singles: 9; best Grand Slam result: Quarterfinals - Australian Open 2011, Quarterfinals - French Open 2011, Quarterfinals - US Open 2011.
The best dancer and entertainer in the WTA tour was the first and only player from the new generation of German ballers to reach the Top 10, which Andrea Petkovic did after Beijing in 2011. She was also the only player on the WTA tour to reach the quarterfinals of three Grand Slam tournaments (Australian Open, French Open, US Open) that year.
Okay, maybe it is not an outstanding performance for a 24-year old player, if comparing her achievements with the ones of the Williams sisters, Maria Sharapova or Justine Henin; but, in the case of Petkovic we should take into account her biography. And her biography says it all – at the age of 20, Andrea reached Top 100 for the first time, and severely injured her knee, putting her career in jeopardy. But after being sidelined for almost 9 months, she returned to the tour to prove she could beat the best players.
If Petkovic was less prone to injuries (she had to withdraw from this year's Australian Open due to a back injury), she could become a major threat to the top players with her powerful serve and giant-killing forehand. But, while she is able to defeat the leading ladies who may be having bad day in the office, like she did last year in Miami vs. Wozniacki or at the Australian Open vs. Sharapova, Petkovic still has to work hard to prove she is a force to consider.
Sabine Lisicki
22 years old; 3 WTA titles; career-high ranking in singles: 14; best Grand Slam result: Semifinals - Wimbledon 2011
In 2011, Sabine Lisicki became the first German player to reach a Grand Slam semifinal in 12 years. But, it was in Charleston in 2009 when she won the prestigious Family Circle Cup without dropping a set that the talented Bradenton resident woke up famous. She beat Venus Williams, Marion Bartoli and Wozniacki on her way to the title.
While Lisicki's powerful hardcore game, tough serve and great personality both on and off the court has won her a lot of fans across the world, a series of injuries almost made her consider retirement. Yet, she kept going, training, and never stopped believing in order to get back to the top of the game at the All England Club last year.
Sabine is still dealing with injuries and lack of consistency, but she is a real workaholic and--who knows?--maybe one day she will be able to win 7 consecutive matches at her favorite Wimbledon. She has all the weapons to secure a major victory and, in my humble opinion, has the best chance of all the German players to lift a Grand Slam trophy in the near future.
Julia Goerges
23 years old; 2 WTA titles, career-high ranking in singles:16; best Grand Slam result: 4th round - Australian Open 2012
In contrast to Lisicki and Petkovic, Julia Goerges avoided injuries during her first years on the WTA tour, so her delayed rise can be explained by other factors. Tall and good-looking (often named 'Gorgeous' by the fans and even chair umpires), with a playing style similar to Mary Pierce and Ana Ivanovic in their best years, Goerges is highly prone to inconsistency. One day she can show some brilliant tennis, and next day she looks dull and clumsy. But during those days when the super-talented German lady finds her rhythm, she can leave people breathless like last year in Stuttgart and Madrid when Julia became the only player to hand then-reigning number one Wozniacki two consecutive defeats.
Yet, her opponents often use her weak backhand and inability to survive in longer points, but as Goerges says, she continues to get better and better step by step. I am pretty sure this girl has Top 5 potential, if she is able to cope with her nerves.
Angelique Kerber
24 years old; 1 WTA title; career-high ranking in singles: 19; best Grand Slam result: Semifinals - US Open 2011
"Dreams come true" was what Angelique Kerber wrote in her personal blog after her sensational run at Flushing Meadows last year. The little-known leftie from Bremen had only two career victories over Top 20 players and reached only 1 WTA final. But, in New York she defeated Flavia Pennetta and Agnieszka Radwanska in great style, and was one step from the US Open final after taking the first set against eventual winner Samantha Stosur.
Though she looks a little heavyset at first sight, Kerber likes and knows how to run and put her opponents out of temper, has impressive tactical skills, and a sizzling forehand. She has some weak sides too, but who's perfect?!
The more important thing is that after her US Open success, Angelique kept improving and her efforts were repaid in Paris at the GDF SUEZ where she demonstrated dominant play to win her first title defeating Sharapova and Marion Bartoli.
In addition, she has some great ranking perspectives since she's only defending 250 ranking points up to the US Open. Her rise to the Top 20 is just a question of time (her semifinal run at Indian Wells this past week should help) if she continues to show the game we saw in Paris.
Mona Barthel
21 years old; 1 WTA Title; career-high ranking: 37, best Grand Slam Result: 3rd round -Australian Open 2012.
Five. That's the number of matches Mona Bathel had won in the main draws of WTA tournaments before this season. During the first two months of 2012 this number tripled, and she became one of the few players to win a WTA title as a qualifier when she won her maiden trophy in Hobart. Barthel is not a hard hitter, but she is a great mover and plays some very intelligent tennis combining huge top spins with slices, drop shots and ground strokes. If she manages to improve in her attacking shots and psychological stability, she could easily become a Top 20 player very soon as evidenced by her near defeat of Victoria Azarenka in the opening round of Indian Wells last week.
There is no doubt German players are establishing a real force in women's tennis, and they have no intention of stopping.

Long story short - about 4 1/2 years ago, I was involved in a car accident where I was hit from behind and suffered whiplash. Well, the pain never went away and subsequenlty diagnosed with fibro.
I am asking because my lawyer informed me that when I finally get to go to court later this month, I am going to come across as a malingering, drug-seeking, doctor shopper because I have seen 3 different orthopedists, 2 different rheumatologists, 2 different physical therapists,2 different pain management provides, 2 different chiropractors, in addition to an accupunturist, massage therapists, in search of "the answers" and trying to find the right combination. Either they had nothing to offer me, brushed me off (gee, imagine that?), or I chose not to return due to distance. When I tried to explain to him that each of these professionals brings a different perspective and/or treatment modality to the table, after he was done yelling at me, he basically told me that I should give up seeking alternative treatments, and "learn to live with it" as that is what he would do. Guarantee you, if that pain was in his testicles, he wouldn't want to "live with it." When I told him that I did not think that he really understood, boy he did get hot and really go off on me. I told him that I was not going to give up as my youngest child was only 8 years old and I am not even 46. Just for the record, I have never received pain medication from any other practitioner than my family doctor, who I have seen for 20 years and is testifying on my behalf and have used the same pharmacy. I started out with Tylenol No. 3 and have been on Vicodin 5/500 for the past year. That is it. Not really heavy-duty meds.
I have read numerous articles and books that have stated that chronic pain suffers do seek care with multiple providers before they find the right combination. How about yourself? I would really appreciate your feedback because I am really feeling defeated about now.
gentle hugs, robin :)

First let me say your lawyer is an idiot!!!! He is one of those people who doesn't believe that this horrible disease is real. Second, never ever stop trying to find a dr that will help you. It sometimes takes a very long time and can very easily involve more than one dr. Sometimes a Rhuemy and a pain management dr or many other combinations. I myself am still looking for a GOOD dr. The one who first diagnosed me I had to quit seeing because of my ex. Haven't found another dr. who is willing to treat me. So I just keep looking. It's really tough but you will find a good one or two and eventually find the right combo of meds to help you. Don't give up. Gentle hugs to you

I've been where you are Sportsmom, I raised 4 boys of my own. The answers are out there I promise. You hang in and let me know if you ever need to chat. Try kicking your lawyer in the gonads and see if he thinks that pain is real. I always wanted to do that. lol

I've seen a number of doctors for the same reasons. Some have different ways of treating fibromyalgia and some don't treat it or know how to treat it.
Hope things work out well for you.
Sending you Hugs and Prayers

Print what you wrote and take it with you to court and give it to the judge! Or send it to the judge. It will probably do more for you than your attorney! Best of luck to you. NEVER GIVE UP!

Doesn't sound to me like you did anything wrong. It's hard to accept that there are no answers to a fix a problem, especially since someone else caused it. Excuse my bluntness, but your lawyer sounds like a real ass! He's supposed to be working on your behalf not recommending your medical treatment. Maybe he has issues of his own! Is it too late to find a new lawyer?

I agree with the others. Don't give up.

Can you get a new Lawyer? He sounds horrible!! He is hired to help you and work for you, not against you.
I guarantee, if his testicles or any of the other doctors testicles hurt like a son of a bitch too, with no "apparent reason or cause" they, too would be understanding and accepting the nature of fibro a WHOLE lot better.
I dont think you have seen too many doctors at all in your 4 year quest to find help and answers. This Lawyer just floors me.
Dont give up. Just dont give up.
Me...yeah...I was telling myself, I give up too...back to ibuprophen and just live like this. I cant. There has got to be a doc somewhere out here who gets this and I just have not found him/her yet.
When my gait was totally off yesterday afternoon, last night and it still is this am--I tell you...I cant do this alone. Theres no way. Unless I get a cane and just deal with it. The knee pain during my sleep time was excruciating last night. It is too much pain.
I know exactly how you feel about wanting to give up...but seriously we cant.
I owe my kids to be a good Mother.
If I give up; I think I would fail them if I do that.
I hope I am making sense. Im rambling and waiting for the caffeine to energize this weary body of mine.
Hugs and love

of course we shouldn't give up. everyone with sense is trying to better their lives. we have a big challenge with this disease so poorly understood and accepted. that is not our fault. keep trying to find releif. that's is the humane thing to do. have empathy for yourself. we are all so tired and achy and without the necessary help. someday there will be a treatment that works. hang in there. and keep trying to be well. i'm not giving up though there are days.

your lawyer had no right to say any of that i've beensick for years and if hadnt switched ddoctors i never would have been diagnosed correctly and would have died last year!!! as far as fibro goes i too have been told by my fibro dr the one pill he has tried is my only option cause of my other illness and i should apply for disability and start a physical therapy program for fibro, hang in there fight for yourself!! we shouldnt just have to deal with it, we just have to keep looking for the doctor who will find something that helps us!

Yes, you are correct...I did ask who Cain has fought, and I did say Overeem was coming in to his own. You can read at least apparently.
UFC (HW) Tournament just as good, or BETTER? LOL. With who? The guys I listed? I listed any HW the UFC hypes and there golden HW's. The very limited Brock Lesnar won that title recently. The belts been held by guys like Tim Sylvia!
Why don't you list why UFC tournament would be just as good, or better, and list who'd be in it, and why there good/ still good? The only two guys you can list that nobody would argue with is Santos and Cain, and nobody can argue because they haven't beaten that many prime HW's, or really fought that many fights. And Santos loses that respect if he gets beaten by Lesnar in his next match...

You may be expecting our regularly scheduled Wednesday episode of Wed Bed Dead. Unfortunately, Jen and Ashley got a little too awesome last night (whiskey) and don't have one for you. Next week they will! Still, they dragged themselves out from under their oppressive hangovers this morning and made you a Fuck Marry Kill in the old written format, concerning a few of Mad Men's main anti-heroes, Don Draper, Roger Sterling and Pete Campbell.
Ashley: Okay. So. Let's begin with you taking me up to speed. I've only seen the first three seasons of Mad Men and… I didn't find it as… uh… nuanced as everyone else so I kind of fell off. Are there any major changes to Don/Roger/Pete that may affect decision making?
Jennifer: Not a single thing, honestly. Umm, Pete cheated on his wife. Roger got remarried. And then divorced. Their personalities have remained virtually identical. Okay, so, there have been no substantial changes to any of the character's personalities since season three.
Ashley: Good to know.
Jennifer: Roger remains a charming bon vivant who belongs drinking martinis in a bar with Hemingway on one side and a young blonde on the other. Pete remains smarmy but correct in almost all of his business predictions. And Don Draper is still Don Draper. So, a lying, cheating, manipulative human being, somehow redeemed by the fact that he looks like Jon Hamm.
Ashley: It's pretty effective, looking like Jon Hamm the way he does.
Jennifer: That's his only good quality, honestly.
Ashley: But Don's still a piece of shit. So, obvious kill.
Jennifer: Well… He must be REALLY good in bed, right? If only because of all the practice?
Ashley: I don't know, Jen. It seems unlikely that Don would care much about being good in bed, as far as ladies are concerned. Then again, that hippie chick in season one is pretty taken with him, and she seems like the sort of lady who gets hers.
Jennifer: Ladies are only with him for the sex.
Ashley: I think ladies are with him for the face, mainly.

Let the speculation begin. AMC has unsheathed the tantalizing first poster for the final season of "Mad Men," set to premiere on April 13 -- and it's a visual bacchanalia indeed!
Given the psychedelic swirl of colors, and the fact that in this first half of the seventh season we're in the '70s now, are drugs and drink still afoot for our man Don Draper? Of course they are! Recall last season that America's favorite morally bankrupt ad exec was shut out of Sterling Cooper & Partners, quite literally leaving our gal Peggy Olson lovelorn and in the hot-seat. Don's disenchanted wife Megan jettisoned to California to pursue her fledgling acting career, and a few of our SC&P friends also went west.
Here's the poster, as well as the profoundly vague first teaser for the new season. Stir up those martinis, because it's time to start obsessing again.

Montenegro Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey 2005
Monitoring the situation of children and women
Translated Title
Istraživanje višestrukih pokazatelja stanja žena i dece, Crna Gora, 2005
Survey Type
Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey - Round 3 [hh/mics-3]
Series Information
The Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey, Round 3 (MICS3) is the third round of MICS surveys, previously conducted in 1996 (MICS1) and 2000 (MICS2). Many questions and indicators are consistent and compatible with the prior round of MICS (MICS2) but less so with MICS1, although there have been a number of changes in definition of indicators between rounds. Details can be found by reviewing the indicator definitions.
ID Number
Version Description
Version 1.0: edited data used for final report
Production Date
The Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) is a household survey programme developed by UNICEF to assist countries in filling data gaps for monitoring human development in general and the situation of children and women in particular. MICS is capable of producing statistically sound, internationally comparable estimates of social indicators. The current round of MICS is focused on providing a monitoring tool for the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), the World Fit for Children (WFFC), as well as for other major international commitments, such as the United Nations General Assembly Special Session (UNGASS) on HIV/AIDS and the Abuja targets for malaria. Survey Objectives The 2005 Montenegro Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey has as its primary objectives: To provide up-to-date information for assessing the situation of children and women in Montenegro. To furnish data needed for monitoring progress toward goals established in the Millennium Declaration, the goals of A World Fit For Children (WFFC), and other internationally agreed upon goals, as a basis for future action; To contribute to the improvement of data and monitoring systems in Montenegro and to strengthen technical expertise in the design, implementation, and analysis of such systems. Survey Content MICS questionnaires are designed in a modular fashion that can be easily customized to the needs of a country. They consist of a household questionnaire, a questionnaire for women aged 15-49 and a questionnaire for children under the age of five (to be administered to the mother or caretaker). Other than a set of core modules, countries can select which modules they want to include in each questionnaire. Survey Implementation The survey was carried out by the Statistical Office of the Republic of Montenegro (MONSTAT) and the Strategic Marketing Research Agency (SMMRI), with the support and assistance of UNICEF and other partners. Technical assistance and training for the survey was provided through a series of regional workshops, covering questionnaire content, sampling and survey implementation; data processing; data quality and data analysis; report writing and dissemination. In 2005 Serbia and Montenegro was the State Union composed of the Republic of Serbia (92.5% of population) and the Republic of Montenegro (7.5% of total population). The MICS 2005 survey was planned and implemented on the whole territory of Serbia and Montenegro, and all documents regarding survey plan and contracts with implementing agencies covered the State Union. In May, 2006 the Republic of Montenegro had a referendum of independency and the State Union broke apart. The results of MICS 2005 survey were presented separately for both countries and two separate reports were prepared. The survey was implemented by the Statistical Office of the Republic of Serbia (in Serbia) and the Statistical Office of the Republic of Montenegro (in Montenegro) and the expert research agency - Strategic Marketing & Media Research Institute (SMMRI), which covered the survey implementation in both Serbia and Montenegro. Special tasks performed by the Statistical Office of the Republic of Montenegro: Preparation of questionnaire for the survey: Preparation of methodological guidelines for realization of the survey; Updating of lists of households in the selected census block units; Conducting the pilot ; Selection of households to be covered by sample; Coordination of work of their teams in the field; Interviewing of the households; Work control of their teams; Preparation of report. Special tasks performed by the SMMRI: Sample selection; Preparation of survey tools; Organising the training; Conducting the pilot; Updating of lists of households in the selected census block units; Organising field work; Coordination of work of their teams in the field; Interviewing of the households; Work control of their teams; Data processing and analysis.

Ready for some scary facts? A study by The Campaign For Safe Cosmetics found that TEN OUT OF TEN tested children's face paints had unsafe levels of lead and heavy metals. Experts agree that there is no safe level of lead exposure for children. And "exposures early in life can lead to hyperactivity, impulsive behavior, IQ deficits, reduced school performance, aggression and delinquent behavior. It can also impact fertility, including increasing risk for miscarriage and reducing sperm quality. Early-life lead exposure can even increase risk for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease."
And those heavy metals which showed up in levels way above the recommended safe threshold, can cause sensitivities and skin rashes later in life, even without subsequent exposures.
As if these statistics and facts weren't scary enough, these toxins were found in face paints that were labelled hypo-allergenic, and the presence of these chemicals is never listed on labels. It's a serious issue and breakdown in our cosmetics industry, but this time of year, when we're slathering our little fairies, cats and goblins in face paint, we must think seriously about the products we're using.
Thankfully, there are some safe alternatives.
For starters, you can try your hand at a homemade recipe. By choosing your own skin cream (or even organic diaper cream) as a base and adding organic food colorants, you can make face paints with completely safe ingredients. Be sure to check out this round-up of recipes from The Campaign for Safe Cosmetics for all the details and how-to.
There are also a few brands of safe face paints made specifically for kids. A company called Luna Star sells themed kits for animal costumes, pixies, ballerinas and fairies. You can also find a box of play makeup from Pure Poppet, and this set specifically for Halloween from TerraFirma–a website that's also a great resource for mixing and matching your own colors instead of buying a complete kit.
So before you put together that perfect Halloween costume for your little one consider trying one of these safer options for their sweet little faces.

Hi friends,
according the link about external pop:
I´ve done all the steps, but I do have problems to send the mails to the simbra-user.
I have created an user, fe: mardoc with the mail-address: firstname.lastname@example.com
I guess, the problem is, that I only have a privat address (FQDN) fe: zimbra.home.lan and I only want to use this server for downloading my external pop-accounts central to this server, where I can access and sync my mails with my laptop. Additional I think, the problem is regarding downloading mail with fetchmail and sending this downloaded mails to the same zimbra-server.
Is there a way, where I can check / trace some log files to find out, where exactly the problem is?
Is there a "new" way to include fetchmail or something else to use external-pop-accounts with zimbra.
thanx mardoc


text: Posted November 20, 2012 I never said I didn't value leadership, only that I know that the outcome of football games have almost nothing to do with it. Anyone with a modicum of NFL history under their belt would remember the long line of dysfunctional but talented teams that won consistently despite fielding some of the most selfish, infighting and downright stupid players imaginable. Football is a game, not a company, and all this squawking of "leadership" issues overlooks the real problems (like idiotic coaching.) Eh - player leaders aren't the most important thing in the world but you'd be foolish to discount the value of an emotional leader on the field. Ray Lewis, for instance, had an impact on that Ravens defense far beyond what his (admittedly plentiful) talent brought to the field. The same could probably be said for Breesus in New Orleans. We could make a list. Units with an emotional team leader on the field with them can play with an edge that teams without that often don't have. I wouldn't focus on leadership above other things but I certainly wouldn't treat it as an afterthought. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites


text: So my basic question is do modern bikes last like their predecessors? I've been debating hard on which wabi cycle to get: Classic or special. They both use Reynolds 725, the difference of course being TIG welded or lugged frame. I've read pages and pages of arguments that really just leads to a stalemate in whether or not it matters if the joining method is welding or using lugs. I want to get a lugged frame but I'm thinking to myself, if most mountain bikes which are meant to take abuse are TIG welded then why wouldn't TIG welds hold up on a road bike? I really can't justify paying 200+ dollars for barely noticeable lugs (at least on the wabi) unless they serve some sort of additional purpose. Then I pondered the issue of having my bike for the long run when I started leaning towards lugs again and I thought to myself if I'm on the east coast and have to deal with all four seasons to include lots of snow and salted roads; how much longevity can I really expect from my frame even with proper care? I know there are bikes around from the 70s and 80s but from what I read that type of steel (reynolds 531 I believe) is no longer being used. How realistic is it to expect a modern bike to last a theoretical 'lifetime'? Thanks for your time in advanced.

Impact of the Level of State Tax Code Progressivity on Children's Health Outcomes
Granruth, Laura Brierton, Shields, Joseph J., Health and Social Work
Social work has a history of caring about the health of children (Axinn & Stern, 2008; Karger & Stoesz, 2008; Petr, 1998). Trattner (1994) noted that in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, children were seen as deserving of social work intervention given their dependent status and the opportunity to ensure their optimal growth and full participation in society. Children remain of great concern to the social work profession, because they continue to be at risk for negative life outcomes (Annie E. Casey Foundation [AECF], 2007; Petit, 2006, 2008). Today, federal, state, and local governments share financial responsibility for providing programs and services to promote child welfare; most of the funding for these programs and services is raised through tax revenue. Although the responsibility for child welfare has varied among government levels throughout American history, currently state governments are responsible for a large share of programs and services costs. Policy devolution remains politically popular despite the recent economic recession.
The purpose of this study was to address a segment of state tax policy that has not been examined--namely, the impact of the level of state tax code progressivity on selected indicators of children's health outcomes. Progressive taxation often is assumed by some to be good social policy on its merits because it conforms to a distributive social justice perspective. In this manner, taxation should not unfairly burden those in society with the least resources. However, many progressive tax policy advocates do not link tax code structures to measureable outcomes. This study examined whether children living in states with more progressive state tax codes were healthier than children who were living in states with more regressive tax codes. Although many other aspects of state tax policy have been studied by economists, political scientists, and lawyers (for example, Cassou, & Lansing, 2004; Farrelly, 2004; Mehrotra, 2005), the field has not been well-explored by social workers.
Health Outcomes for Children
Child welfare was formalized as a primarily federal responsibility with the Aid to Dependent Children and Mother's Pensions program, passed as part of the Social Security Act of 1935 (2009). Prior to this legislation child welfare was a state or local responsibility. From 1935 until the mid-1980s, federal government involvement in child welfare programs increased. Currently, due to increased devolution of federal government programs, many child welfare policies and programs are becoming, once again, primarily a state and local government responsibility. Federal devolution was not entirely a "push down" from the federal government to unwilling state governments. Many state governors had lobbied for greater control over social programs, believing that state governments could devise more appropriate responses for the needs of their residents than a federal "one size fits all" approach. Former Wisconsin Governor Tommy Thompson led the charge in developing new state programs for families and children that later became the basis for the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (Haskins, 2008).
Unfortunately, children's health may be affected by their state of residence. For example, Petit (2008) found that infant mortality rates, child death rates, and the likelihood of a child not having health insurance (among other indicators) vary significantly by state, leading to what he identified as a "child well-being gap." Petit identified several elements that contribute to poorer health outcomes for children. These elements include poverty, race, and education. Children living in states with higher rates of poverty and a higher proportion of children who are from racial and ethnic minority groups tend to have poorer outcomes. Petit also identified a state's political culture, the amount of revenue collected through taxation, and declining federal investment in child welfare policies as contributing elements. …

Family Law
Family Law Questions? Ask a Family Lawyer Online.
Have you already gotten a divorce? with a support and custody order setting out the custody agreement?
If not, then you can make that part of the support and custody agreement.
If you already have one in place, you would need to draw up a new contract setting out the terms that you are agreeing on with both of you signing and having it dated and notarized. It would then be a binding contract that would supercede any previous divorce agreement.
There is no special legal terms you need to use. You would just draw up the agreement in simple terms stating what you are both agreeing to, both sign it and date it in front of a notary, and then it is a binding contract that is enforceable by either party.
Does he pay child support directly to you or go through the courts child support division?
Ok, then technically he would have to continue to pay the support if you don't want to go through the courts to get it set aside. But your written agreement would be considered a binding contract enforceable by either party. So you can just state that you are voluntarily transferring physical custody to him and that you will refund his payment each month as long as he retains physical custody.
And yes, you can enter into any agreement that you both agree to and have it be legally binding as long as it is not for an illegal purpose (this isn't).

Jason Statham In Talks To Smash Heads In Layer Cake Follow-Up Viva La Madness
By Nick Venable 2013-11-11 15:18:06 comments
I expect there would be no small uproar if it were ever announced that Jason Statham would replace Daniel Craig in the iconic role of superspy James Bond. But that probably isnt the case with any of Craigs other characters, and so it is with only a minimal amount of trepidation that we accept the news that Statham and his producer partner Steve Chasman acquired the rights to Viva La Madness, J.J. Connollys novelized sequel to his hit 2000 novel Layer Cake, which Matthew Vaughn turned into Layer Cake a feature in 2004, with Craig in the unnamed lead role. Does this mean Statham will be coming back to the quick-witted Brit crime capers that launched his career? Lets hope so.
Not to give away the ending to Layer Cake, but the protagonist bad guy wasnt exactly in tip-top shape, and his future trials and tribulations arent going to make his life any easier. Deadline reports Connollys follow-up will follow the character as he looks for a sandy beachside to retire to, but instead gets himself thrown headfirst into a plot involving "trans-Atlantic drug deals, money laundering, high-tech electronic fraud, London lowlifes and Venezuelan drug cartels." In other words, just your average weekend for a Statham character.
As with Layer Cake, Connolly will be adapting his own novel into a screenplay. He recently scripted a heist film called H for Guy Ritchie, whose Lock, Stock And Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch first introduced American audiences to Stathams tight-lipped badassery. And when you consider Vaughn was an executive producer on Ritchies early films, this all seems like it was meant to be.
Its unclear whether Vaughn, who is currently filming the comic adaptation The Secret Service, will be back in any capacity on Viva La Madness, but it doesnt really matter to me either way. Layer Cake was almost too heavy on the flashy cinematography, and while Vaughns Kick-Ass and X-Men: First Class were fine films, they didnt really do much for me from a filmmaking standpoint.
This wont be the first time Statham has taken over a role popularized by others, though his take on Donald Westlakes most popular character in this years Parker left much to be desired. Well see Statham reprising his own roles in both The Expendables 3 and Fast & Furious 7 next year. But first well get to see him fight James Franco in the admittedly awesome looking Homefront, and then hell be protecting important people in Simon Wests crime thriller Heat, the first film that Statham and Chasman produced under their SJ Pictures imprint.
If you havent seen Layer Cake, which is quite possible since no one ever brings that movie up, then check out the nifty trailer below, featuring chef mastermind Marco Pierre-White.

Naeem Khan first hit the scene as an evening wear designer in 2003, and has dressed everyone from the First Lady to Sarah Jessica Parker. Now ten years later, he's bringing his signature embellishments and intricate embroideries to the bridal world! Three cheers for that!
I had the pleasure of getting up close and personal with Khan's debut Fall/Winter 2014 wedding dress collection, and as a bride-to-be and a fashion fanatic, I was instantly smitten! Pairing sleek silhouettes with decadent beading and appliques, each gown (inspired by a different great city around the world) was more gorgeous than the last.
The Florence dress (below) is my personal favorite, which surprised me given my affinity for lace and beading. I just love the romantic threadwork, flattering sweetheart neckline, and blush pink underlay.
But as I mentioned before, all the Naeem Khan bridal gowns are out-of-this-world amazing! Prepare to swoon and get your Pin It trigger finger ready, then start scrolling to take it all in...
