What are some sweet things you guys do for your ladies? I'm running out of ideas of things to do for my girl. I usually show up and suprise her, or buy her something like a milkshake while shes working.
Hmmm after a very trying day....
Give her a very nice back massage.
Then proceed to draw her a nice hot steaming bubble bath.
Once she is done and you have set up your romantic dinner with candle light put your hands over her eyes and lead her to the table and surprise her once again.
After dessert (which I recommend to be Cheesecake of course if your allergic to it god forbid then don't get it :P) proceed to hand her a envelope which inside holds two tickets for her and a friend for one free weekend at some nice spa, or one if you just want to spoil her.
Thus the night is complete and you are in good steading with your girl.
When I was in high school, it was a big deal to call the (one and only) top 40 radio station and have a song dedicated to your girlfriend or boyfriend. Don't know if radio stations still do that.
Not bad But I have a hot bath already for her, with a pair of towels on standby
The massaging comes later
Ahhh hits head don't do the bath first, it will just relax her muscles so the massage doesn't feel as good when its first. Oh well Nice job ;D
Depend on what's the girl wants....
If she prefer to have a rest after work...then make her feels comfortable .....like prepare dinner for her, massage her, play some soft music...and so on...(treat her like queen)
If she prefer something that can surprise her... then once a while buy her flowers, dresses, accessories, or create some romance evironment for her..such as candlelight dinner, with Jazz music, wine and so on...
Next, you need to ask the ladies what their idea of this might be.
You definitely have game. :tup:
Thank you ^^ unfortunatly I have neither the money nor the courage to have a girl ;(
Hard to believe, Calim. Some girl is missing out then.
Thank you very much ^^
Give her an 1 carat + Tiffany engagement ring during a night that she will never forget and she will love you forever. Trust me.
Cynthia and i have been together now for almost 3 years.
this one time, when we had our first argument, she said she didnt want to talk to me. so i went to where she worked with 3 dozen roses.before i arrived at her work, i seperated the bundle of roses into 6 seperate bouquets of 6 roses each.each bouquet had one of 6 different portraits that we had taken together the previous Christmas, attached to them. and along with each mini-bouquet, i had also attached a 3"x3" sticky note.
each of the 6 notes had 1 of 6 words and they were sent in to her in seqeuential order by 6 random people who were entering where she worked.i had offered each of them a little $ to help me out here, and only the females didnt want to accept my offering and turned it down only cause they wanted to watch.
the 6 words were:i'msorrypleaseforgivemebaby.
needless to say, we ahvent had a fight in over 2 years.
Jammo, you are a master.
I always bought my girl cuddly things like soft teddy bears etc she also loved gerbera's so i would normally attach the toy to the flower and write her a little poetry..although personally i thought my poetry sucked, she was always happy to recieve one of my poems..
hehe just to admit id also slip a hint of my geekyness in just to make a lasting impression.. for example i bought a tux plush toy once
small things make all the difference though..
agh i miss her :bawling: my advice probably sucks and i dont really wish to make a fool of myself by expressing myself on a forum ..
aw thanks.
im quite the romantist (sp?).
jeeeze! calim and jammo you should tell my boyfriend about those ideas!
Flowers are always an excellent thing. It's a classic but it will always make your girlfriend at time (it aleast they make mine).Have you thought about a nice restaurant maybe? You could take a little dessert with you and then, after the café, tell her that you have a surprise for the dessert. Drive to a quiet place and eat the dessert under the moon.
Another common technic is to buy beers and popcorn. Watch some football and don't even look at her. Don't forget to yell at the referee.
That should do the trick.
I am not so keen on flowers and cuddly toys etc. I like them but they are very cliche and do not take much thinking. I woould prefer it if a man DID something, rather than bought something. I went out with this guy who thought that the more expensive the gift then the more adoration he deserved so he kept buying me things. After a while that is all they are - things.

The Link Grammar Parser (link-grammar) is a syntactic parser of English, Russian, Arabic, and Persian (and other languages as well), based on link grammar, an original theory of English syntax. Given a sentence, the system assigns to it a syntactic structure, which consists of a set of labelled links connecting pairs of words. The parser also produces a "constituent" (Penn tree-bank style phrase tree) representation of a sentence (showing noun phrases, verb phrases, etc.). The RelEx extension provides dependency-parse output.
OpenCog is an Open Source software project aimed at directly confronting the AGI challenge, based on mathematics and using biologically inspired algorithms, including algorithms for common-sense reasoning and machine learning. Components include natural language processing and speech generation, robotics, game control, and vision.
DKPro Core is a collection of software components for natural language processing (NLP) based on the Apache UIMA framework. Many powerful and state-of-the-art NLP components are already freely available in the NLP research community. New and improved components are being developed and released continuously. The components cover the whole range of NLP-related processing tasks. DKPro Core provides wrappers for such third-party tool as well as original NLP components. DKPro Core builds heavily on uimaFIT which allows for rapid and easy development of NLP processing pipelines.
WebAnno is a general purpose Web-based annotation tool for a wide range of linguistic annotations. It offers annotation project management, freely configurable tagsets, and the management of users in different roles. It uses technology from the brat rapid annotation tool for visualizing and editing annotations in a Web browser. It supports annotation and visualization of arbitrarily large documents, pluggable import/export filters, the curation of annotations across various users, and farming out annotations to a crowdsourcing platform.
DKPro WSD provides UIMA components which encapsulate corpus readers, linguistic annotators, lexical semantic resources, WSD algorithms, and evaluation and reporting tools. You configure the components, or write new ones, and arrange them into a data processing pipeline. DKPro WSD is modular and flexible. Components which provide the same functionality can be freely swapped. You can easily run the same algorithm on different data sets, or test several different algorithms on the same data set.
TWSI is software that produces lexical substitutions in context for over 1000 frequent nouns. It processes English text. This functionality is realized by a supervised word sense disambiguation system, which is trained by sense-labeled occurrences of target words. A classification model is trained for each word, and used to decide which sense an unseen occurrence most likely belongs to. Associated with senses are lists of substitutions, which are injected into the text using inline annotation.

WILTSHIRE'S darts players are gearing up for the biggest tournament on the local calendar but help is needed to help continue the growth of the sport in the county.
The Wiltshire Open is being held at the Ferndale Working Men's Club on April 5, and is set to feature the best players the county has to offer including reigning champion Dennis Smith and his fellow PDC regulars Johnny Haines, Chris Aubrey and Mark Cox.
The event has switched from its former home at the Phoenex Bar in Wootton Bassett to its new Ferndale Road base, and is in desperate need of sponsorship to help not only run the tournament but also to help fund the future of darts in Wiltshire.
"We're a self-funded organisation although we do get a bit of sponsorship from the clubs we play in," Wiltshire Darts secretary Keith Little said. "We had played at the Phoenex Bar in Wootton Bassett but we've moved to Ferndale, although we've not received any money from them yet as they are waiting to see if it's worth their while us being there.
"We have to raise money ourselves, and we do that with raffles and other things with the Wiltshire Open being our biggest money earner most years. We need the money to pay for the travel and hotels of our players for our players throughout the season, and we also have to pay the BDO to send players to competitions.
"We need this open to bring the revenue in to keep the players happy because, believe it or not, if we didn't pay for hotels and travel then a lot of players wouldn't play and that would be bad for the game of darts in Wiltshire.
"That's why this open is a big thing for us and why we need some sponsors to help us."

Filter All Elements Matching a Certain Criteria
From ErlangCentral Wiki
From a list, you want only the elements that match certain criteria.
This notion of extracting a subset of a larger list is common. It's how you find all engineers in a list of employees, all users in the "staff" group, or all the filenames you're interested in.
Use the lists module's filter or dropwhile functions. The filter function takes a list and a predicate, and returns a list of all elements where the predicate is true.
% Example of lists:filter 1> List = lists:seq(1,16). [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16] 2> lists:filter(fun(X) -> X rem 2 == 0 end, List). [2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16]
The dropwhile function scans through a list, dropping elements until it reaches the first element satisfying some criteria; at this point, it returns the remaining elements of the list. The takewhile function does the opposite, taking elements until some criteria is met, and dropping the rest.
% Example of lists:dropwhile (uses same List as before) 3> lists:dropwhile(fun(X) -> X < 5 end, List). [5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16] % Example of lists:takewhile 4> lists:takewhile(fun(X) -> X < 5 end, List). [1,2,3,4]
Erlang has excellent support for list processing.

STATEHOUSE (Feb. 5, 2013) — Two bills authored by State Sen. Jim Banks (R-Columbia City) to support local microbreweries today passed the Senate. Both passed by a vote of 41-8.
Senate Bill 100 and Senate Bill 401 would allow a craft brewery to sell its beer at nonprofit farmers' markets and trade shows. Currently, microbreweries may only sell their product as the proprietor of a restaurant or directly to another permitted retailer, dealer or consumer's residence.
"Microbreweries are increasingly popular small businesses, and these bills will give them more opportunities for growth," Banks said. "There are over 50 licensed microbreweries in Indiana that have created over 1,000 jobs, and this is continuing to grow. My legislation will provide a new avenue for brewers to showcase their craft and find new customers."
The bills now move to the House of Representatives for further consideration. Rep. Ed Clere (R-New Albany) is the sponsor of both bills.

TWO Cumbrian women are getting set to head off on the journey of a lifetime in aid of charity.
The 'Beijing Biddies' are embarking upon an 8,500 drive from Orton's Westmorland Hotel to Bejing at 9.30am on Thursday (May 1).
Edwina Sorkin, 68, and Kate Sleath, 63, will be waved off by Ford World Rally driver Elfyn Evans, friends, family and supporters as they start their 30 day expedition which hopes to raise £150,000 for Macmillan Cancer Support and Cancer Research UK.
Ms Sorkin, who lives in Newbiggin on Lune, near Kirkby Stephen, said: "Our vehicle is looking quite full with all the car accessories, camping equipment and other essentials that have very kindly been donated by local companies.
"We have Jerry cans, bottles of screen wash, oil, power steering fluid, ropes, ratchets, ladders, a folding shovel, as well as a large water container and cases of water.
"We've even packed 48 toilet rolls!"
The pair, who will be travelling the stretch in a donated Nissan Pathfinder 4x4, have both had experience with cancer as Ms Sorkin's daughter Deby was diagnosed with breast cancer seven years ago and has benefitted from the charities.
The vehicle has been specially adapted for the trip, with off-road tyres to cope with the hostile terrain they will encounter as they travel through Europe, Russia, Siberia, Mongolia and China.
In preparation for their journey, the two former neighbours have been taking courses in advanced driving skills, off road driving and car maintenance.
Ms Sleath, a car rally enthusiast, said: "We haven't forgotten some much needed luxuries and we've had boxes of goodies donated that includes our favourite chocolate bars as well nuts and dried fruits.
"But with limited space we've had to think hard about our respective wardrobes and toiletries, so it is going to be hard to keep up our usual well-groomed appearance as we head east".
For more information and to make a donation visit http://beijingbiddies.co.uk/ or simply text BBID60 £(your amount) to 70070.

603 Cherry Bordeaux
This finish is influenced by a deep claret hue. It is warm and confident enough to support either opulent or understated styling.
Cherry Bordeaux Color Story
Picture Perfect Mornings
I like to get up early. Then, I feel like I have the whole world to myself. Before the rest of the day flies by in a hectic blur, I saddle up my favorite horse, a retired racehorse named "Bordeaux", to ride out over the hills and open pastures near my home. I love to see the deep, rich color of the saddle and tack and drink in the intoxicating smells of the leather, hay and sweet feed. As we breeze through the fields and over the black fences, I notice all the beautiful colors around me swirling together into a life-sized landscape painting. In this scene of green grass and blue skies, I am a splash of my favorite color. As we turn down the lane that leads home, I begin to think of today's to-do list that waits for me. My mount nickers to me, and I tell him that I agree. We turn back for one last gallop, and take the long way home.

Dear Dolce Vita,
I love your shoes. Although, I've never owned a pair, I fall in love every time I see a pair and try them on. I just want you to know that if I ever come across a couple of hundred dollars, I will buy these three pairs above. They would probably make my feet melt, because they are so HOT!
Thank you.

Where should i create a thread to ask for book recommendations about a certain topic?
Would it be wise to have a thread in the general discussion forum? (if many people post in that thread it would be troublesome to search there in the future)
Or perhaps a sub-forum could be added to serve this purpose.
Any thoughts?

Ivy League Release
PHILADELPHIA - Senior captain Thomas Mattsson has been named first-team All-Ivy for the first time in his career. With this honor, he becomes the first men's squash player since the 2007-08 season to be named All-Ivy when Lee Rosen was selected in that year. Mattsson recently finished competing at the individual national championships where he won two matches.
In his final season at Penn, Mattsson compiled a 10-9 mark. He spent the entire season playing at No. 1, his fourth straight year that he held down the top position for Penn. His 10 victories were two more than he had during any other season and he finishes his career with 24 victories overall. In Ivy League matches, the senior won two at the top spot, highlighted by his victory over returning first-team All-American Kenneth Chan of Yale.
In total, Mattsson finished the year with three wins against players that were also named first-team All-Ivy performers. First-team All-Ivy is normally made up of the top-10 performers based on coaches votes, but was expanded to 12 players this year with ties in the voting.

Marketwatch published a list of the most-hated companies in America. The list would imply to investors that these companies would be stocks to avoid buying, but a deeper analysis is needed. Questions to ask would be: · What metric is used to measure "most-hated?" · What was the time frame used? · Who was asked of this opinion? · Is the customer negative opinion measured in the same way, or are the qualitative and quantitate measures all different? The companies listed were: [Related: The List of Best Places to Work Is A Solid Watch-List for Shareholders ] 1. J. C. Penney Company, Inc. ( JCP): Through its subsidiary, J. C. Penney Corporation, Inc., operates department stores in the United States and Puerto Rico. Market cap at $4.11B, most recent closing price at $18.73. This company is a retail stock to avoid at this time. The company changed its pricing policy in a way that sales deals occur regularly. Prior to that, J.C. Penney had a sales strategy that incentivized customers into coming to their stores. The company is also embarking on a new unproven sales strategy.
2. Dish Network Corp. ( DISH ): Provides direct broadcast satellite (DBS) subscription television services in the United States. Market cap at $16.93B, most recent closing price at $37.50. Dish was featured on Business Week as being a difficult work-environment. The company is still good for its customers: commercial-skipping is possible using services offered by Dish. 3. AT&T, Inc. ( T ): Provides telecommunication services to consumers, businesses, and other service providers worldwide. Market cap at $190.9B, most recent closing price at $33.61. MarketWatch cited the AT&T (T) merger that failed. Customer service is cited as a reason to dislike the company.

1 in 5 credit reports have errors: Is yours one of them?
A February 2013 study by the Federal Trade Commission found that one in five credit reports contains errors. Over the past decade, savvy Americans have learned that their credit score is the most important aspect of getting credit. They also know that the credit score is derived from the credit report. To get the best interest rates for a mortgage, car loan, or credit card, you'll need a high credit score. So it behooves every consumer to keep an eye on their credit report and credit score.
There are many free places to get your credit report, but usually you have to pay for your credit score. A new entry into the credit sites is WisePiggy.com, where you can get your TransUnion Vantage score and your "Credit Report Card" – all for free. (WisePiggy.com is operated by the same company that owns ConsumerismCommentary.com.)
To create an account, you'll need to fill in the usual personal information, including a Social Security number, which is retained only to do a soft pull of your credit report. Once that's done, you'll be taken to a dashboard (found under the My Credit tab), where you can see your current Vantage score – which ranges from 300 to 850 — and Report Card. Your score will be refreshed every 30 days.
Credit Report Card
The Report Card gives you a letter grade, from A+ through F, for each of the components that go into your credit score. These are on-time payments, open credit usage, average age of credit lines, new applications or hard inquiries, and mix of types of credit.
The Report Card contains all of your open accounts, including credit cards, car loans, student loans, personal and home loans. Want more details on about your score? The Score Card provides them.
My Savings Finder
Under the Savings Finder tab, you can find ways to save money by getting a credit card with a better interest rate, a lower mortgage rate, and auto insurance comparison rates. The site also shows the most competitive savings account rates available.
My Loans
The next tab is My Loans, where you can see all of your loans with details on each one. For example, under credit cards, you'll get the name of the card issuer, your credit limit, current balance, and estimated monthly payment.
The Debt Reduction tab offers two calculators: a mortgage amortization calculator and a debt repayment calculator.
Finally, the Credit Tutorial provides helpful articles about credit scoring, credit cards, debt reduction, mortgages and ways to improve your credit that will help you save money. These useful articles are also available on the homepage for those who do not have an account. You can also compare credit cards, mortgages, car insurance and savings accounts without opening an account.

A YOUNG sex fiend who approached young boys and exposed himself looks set to be detained in a secure hospital.
Peter Gudgeon, 21, made sexual advances to young boys in parks, including a 12-year-old with learning difficulties, in 2010.
He was given a three-year community order by a judge in December of that year and placed under a five-year sexual offences prevention order.
But earlier this year he came to the attention of police again, for similar behaviour, and was arrested, Burnley Crown Court heard.
Gudgeon, formerly of College Court, Accrington, pleaded guilty to a charge of engaging in sexual activity in the presence of a child, in relation to the May incident.
He has now been assessed by two psychiatrists at Calderstones Hospital, who recommend he is detained under the Mental Health Act.
A 12-week hospital order has been imposed on Gudgeon by Judge Simon Newell, who said he was satisfied with the experts' evidence.
Judge Newell said: "In light of what I have read about you, and your background, and having regard to the nature of the offence, it seems to me that the appropriate way forward is an interim hospital order."
The court heard that the doctors had diagnosed Gudgeon, who has learning difficulties, with a mental disorder relating to his sexual behaviour. He will now be assessed by medical experts before it is decided whether he should receive a permanent order.
The parents of his 12-year-old victim in 2010, who ran home in tears after being approached by Gudgeon, had supported efforts to offer him help.
But his mother was worried if he was freed to offend again.
Gudgeon was also given a reprimand aged 15 for sexually assaulting a 14-year-old boy.

ALVIN, Texas - A man was shot to death during an apparent robbery, investigators said.
Brazoria County sheriff's deputies said they were called out to the 19000 block of County Road 927C in the Alvin area about 8:45 a.m. on Tuesday.
Detectives said they were responding to a robbery in progress call, but when they got to the scene they found that 24-year-old Albert Garcia had been fatally shot.
A second man, Reynaldo Garcia, was shot in the leg and taken to a hospital for treatment.
Investigators said they searched the area and found two men hiding in a field about 400 yards from the scene of the shooting. They were taken into custody and were being questioned about the killing.

Did you know?
The Blyde River Canyon is the third-largest canyon in the world (after the Grand Canyon in the United States and the Fish River Canyon in Namibia) and the largest 'green' canyon.
Bordering with Mozambique and Swaziland, Mpumalanga is known for its stunning flora and fauna, soaring mountain peaks and game reserves teaming with wildlife. However, the province is also an eco-adventure buff's paradise.
Eco-adventure involves minimising your impact on the land, increasing your environmental and cultural awareness and undergoing a positive nature experience. Mpumalanga offers you all that and more.
The province may not be a coastal region but at least you can take to the rapids of the Sabie, Blyde or Olifants rivers for some aqua action. Whether it's a quiet float along the river to focus on the wildlife and scenery or an adrenaline-pumping rapids scream-fest, Mpumalanga's rivers offer both and everything in between.
If you would prefer staying on dry land, you may want to climb on a quad bike and experience nature on wheels. Riders are given a crash course before setting off to assess their levels of experience, and although there may be a little technical riding involved, there are always experienced riders on hand to guide you through any sticky situations.
Eco-adventuring does not only involve spiking your adrenaline levels, you can also simply take a leisurely hike and enjoy nature in a more relaxed manner. Komatiland Forestry offers a number of hikes for you to enjoy, from the one-day Loerie Trail, Forest Fall Trail, Secretary Bird Trail and Rooikat Trail, to the multi-day Fanie Botha, Soutspansberg and Uitsoek hiking trails. You'll be able to see, among others, bush pig, bushbuck, baboon, jack buzzard and, possibly, the rare bat hawk as you walk along any of the routes.
Head to Mpumalanga for a short, or long, adventure break – it may be just what you need to feel excited about life again.

EDIT: This post originally went up with the wrong images. Sorry about that.
This is not a photograph.
But it's still amazing.
An important thing to remember about science is that some of the stuff we talk about in the general public as "fact" — like, say, black holes — haven't actually been seen by anybody. Instead, black holes exist on paper, as part of theoretical astrophysics. They also exist in indirect evidence — we can look for things in the universe that should exist in a certain way, in a certain place, if our theoretical astrophysics is correct. So far, that lines up, too.
And then there's this thing. Like I say, it's not a photo. It's more like a model. Telescopes — the kind we point at deep space — don't collect images, they collect information. This is a digital rendering made based on information collected when researchers pointed four different telescopes at a galaxy called (poetically) galaxy M87. What you're looking at is a series of simulations, over time, showing massive ribbons of gas undulating and spinning around the something at the galaxy's center. If the theoretical astrophysics is right, this is the closest we've ever gotten to seeing a black hole. Read the rest

Improving Care Transitions, Reducing Avoidable Hospital Readmissions
There are dangerous gaps between the health care people should get and the care they actually do get—especially in the treatment of chronic conditions that affect millions, such as asthma, diabetes, and heart disease.
Launched in 2011, Care About Your Care focuses attention on what people can do to provide and receive better health care. This Robert Wood Johnson Foundation national initiative focuses on improving care transitions to reduce avoidable hospital readmissions, and how nurses, care coordinators, doctors, consumers, caregivers, patients, and others can work together to achieve this.

An abbreviation of the name for the practice of 'tantric wanking'. This is when one masturbates to the point of near ejaculation, but then suddenly removes his hand from his penis and proceeds to sit on it in a meditatory stance, thus ceasing the self-stimulation. The wanker repeats this process over the course of two to three days. Needless to say the result is incredibly spectacular, but can unfortunately result in knob-ache.

Did you know?
The Paarl Wine Route is known as the Red Route for its legendary red wines.
The Paarl Winelands are framed by the majestic Groot and Klein Drakenstein and Franschhoek mountains. Running through the Paarl wine estates is the Berg River, which sustains the winelands in Paarl as the area is dependant on irrigation.
Paarl is the third oldest town in South Africa. Founded in 1687 when Dutch settlers were given farms along the Berg River, it quickly established itself as a centre for fine wines, many of which are considered amongst the best in the world.
This route includes more than 40 estates among them Fairview (where you can sample cow's milk and goats cheeses) or eat at the Goatshed restaurant which serves mediterranean style fare and has an al fresco area..
Then there's one of the oldest farms in the area located within the town precinct, Laborie, which was granted to French Hugenot Isaac Taillefert in 1691. Here you can sample wines or dine at the restaurant called Harvest.
Also on the route is the historic Nederburg, famous for the annual Nederberg Auction which is considered a must for discerning wine buyers.

Paarl is easily accessible by road and some of the drives boast amazing scenery. Hire a car to get to the winelands or speak to your tour operator.
Best time to visit

Get around
Paarl is well sign-boarded and there are brochures and maps readily available to show you the various routes.
What will it cost
Depends on how much red wine you glug!
Length of stay
Give yourself at least a day. Better still, make a weekend out of it.
What to pack
Comfortable clothes and walking shoes. In summer it is very hot so dress lightly. Winters can be cold and wet, so warm clothes and an umbrella.
Where to stay
Paarl has numerous quality establishments from budget guesthouses to award-winning hotels.
What to eat
There are great restaurants in the old town and on most of the wine estates.
What's happening
Why not take the Paarl Wine Route, which is a great way to see the area. There are also scenic drives over the many passes that connect the Paarl winelands to the rest of the Cape.
Best buys
What else but wine!

Ouidad Deep Treatment Intensive Conditioner
I tried a 2 ounce sample of Ouidad Deep Treatment conditioner because I'd always heard the virtues of its effectiveness on curly hair. It softened my hair and left it shiny and detangled after rinsing. Since it is a bit pricey I would recommend using it at least once a month for deep conditioning treatments.

lmcd - Tuesday, August 05, 2014 - linkDoes anyone know if Windows Dev Preview on Lumia Icon strips out the Verizon tethering restrictions, by chance? Reply
Stephen Barrett - Tuesday, August 05, 2014 - linkit does not for my AT&T Lumia 920, so I doubt it. Reply
Duraz0rz - Tuesday, August 05, 2014 - linkWhat tethering restrictions? Unless you are on an unlimited plan, you can tether for free. Reply
CaedenV - Tuesday, August 05, 2014 - linkInstalled it last night and it works great! I am using a Lumia 920 with Black firmware and it is smooth as butter. Phone was getting slow with some of the minor updates of WP8.1, but it was easily fixed with a hard reset/reload of the OS.
As annoyed as I am about WP hardware offerings on the highend, with no new hardware in sight until well into next year, I am super happy with how the newest software runs on my old 920. I mean, the device itself is coming up on 2 years old, and the platform is it based on is closer to 3 years old, but it keeps on kicking just fine!
As for the update, it is mostly IE and Folders. Folders are great, and I think I have gone a little folder crazy with literally everything on my app list being in a folder on the main screen now, we will find out soon if that will become an issue with so many live tiles as I know previous versions of WP were limited to a fairly small number of live tiles before they would stop updating, and that many updates may ping the CPU too much to allow for proper sleep times. But at least I can find all of my apps! And as things like OneNote pages and web pages can be linked separately it is great to have the stand-alone app, and then a folder full of quick links right next to it!
IE is MUCH improved! on WP8 IE had issues, but most of them were pretty easy to work around, and as things like adverts were broken which was sort of like having AB+ pre-installed on my device. But sites like Amazon and ebay simply didn't work. Then came WP8.1; with that the layout of websites was much more accurate, but it still wasn't right. Advertisements started working... but with no way to close them. Layouts mostly worked... but sometimes scrolling side-to-side would not work. It was technically better, but functionally a step backwards. But the new update seems to fix a lot of that. Sites that were forcing me to use mobile when I prefer the desktop layout now respect my selection. Sites (and adverts) are formatted correctly which make pages navigateable. Sites like Amazon which have never worked on WP, now work perfectly. Still annoying on some sites to not have Flash or Silverlight support, but that is to be expected, and thankfully those are loosing support as time which makes them less of a problem.
I was hoping that the online version of Word, Excel, PPT, etc. would work well with the new mobile IE as a way to get a better/updated office suite for the phone; but sadly when you select to start a new document or template from the website it just opens the apps. Still, when selecting the new document you can see the word website displayed properly behind the selection, so maybe we will see it work before long, or the much needed update based on the website running directly on the phone.
All in all it is not as large of an update as WP8.1, but as far as usability goes it may impact my daily use more than 8.1 did (outside of the quick-launch feature which I use all of the time to manage settings, wifi, and Bluetooth). Reply
maximumGPU - Tuesday, August 05, 2014 - linkgood mini-review, thanks! Reply
theNiZer - Thursday, August 07, 2014 - linkThank you for sharing and caring :) Reply
MonkeyPaw - Tuesday, August 05, 2014 - linkRegarding 7" screen support, I do wonder if this is not for phabet+ phones, but perhaps actual 7" tablets. Even at 8", Windows 8.1 can be a challenge, as too much of the UI is too small (even for Modern UI). It only makes sense in MS's unified app endeavor to pass mini tablet duty to WP 8.1. Reply
CaedenV - Tuesday, August 05, 2014 - linkI would bet that the 7" support is more a function of the continued merging of WP and RT than support for a specific device or device class. Remember that both platforms will merge with the next version of windows+Gemini, and the desktop will likely go away for such devices. The difference between a phone and tablet is mostly going to be a radio and a dialer. Reply
Giri1985 - Wednesday, August 06, 2014 - linkI have Lumia 520 and I updated my phone to windows phone 8.1 GDR1 for Developer Preview. Everything is working fine except DISPLAY option. When I click Display it keep showing loading for 5 seconds, then grades out. Anybody facing this issue ? And anyone having solution for this? Help me with these issue which I am facing. Reply

Hey guys, I'm trying to reach some table variables with the help of outer apply. The query i got so far is this.
SELECT T.Firstcol, T.Secondcol, Z.Timmar, B.Timmar, C.Timmar, D.Timmar FROM @tble AS Z, @tble3 AS B, @tble4 AS C, @tble5 AS D
OUTER APPLY (SELECT TOP 1 L.Timmar FROM @tble2 as L
ON A.Personnummer = T.PNRCol OR B.Personnummer = T.PNRCol) AS tempres
Is there any way to make this query work?
Error message
Invalid object name 'Z'.
can't help you with APPLY...
... but you've got @tble defined as Z, and then apparently another table called Z inside your subquery, where you're joining L to Z on some column in table A but you have no table A, and some column in table T but you have no table T
so, in short, in order to make your query work, you have to fix all those problems
I read somewhere that outer apply makes it possible to reach references outside the subquery, is that false?
I've had no experience with APPLY either... Do you mind presenting some sample table data and your desired result and perhaps we can attack it another way?
references outside a subquery are possible in ordinary non-APPLY subqueries as well
but references to tables that aren't mentioned anywhere in the query? that won't work
SELECT u.id, mbg.marker_value FROM dps_user uOUTER APPLY (SELECT TOP 1 m.marker_value, um.profile_id FROM dps_usr_markers um (NOLOCK) INNER JOIN dps_markers m (NOLOCK) ON m.marker_id= um.marker_id AND m.marker_key = 'moneyBackGuaranteeLength' WHERE um.profile_id=u.id ORDER BY m.creation_date ) AS MBGWHERE u.id = 'u162231993';
Example from Stackoverflow, he can access the u from inside that subquery.
As I remember cross apply is equivalent to inner join and outer apply to left join and it make a bit difference on query performance apply is mach faster.fasck publish your table structure. Your SQL looks not right, but it is hard to fix without knowing your tables...

Johannesburg, Dec 01(ANI): Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger feels his team can bring back to life their sinking title challenge in December after a disappointing start to the season that left them trailing Premier League challengers like Manchester United, Chelsea and Manchester City.
The north London club are currently seventh in the table and 12 points behind leaders United but, ever the optimist, Wenger feels a good run as the calendar year winds to a close can propel them back into the race.
Arsenal have played eight of their 14 matches to date away from home, but four of their six December fixtures are at the Emirates Stadium.
"At the moment the two Manchester sides (are ahead). They have not been spectacular but efficient, and they have made the maximum of the chances they have created," Sports24 quoted Wenger, as saying on the club's website.
"For example, Manchester United have already lost three games and have lost in the Champions League as well. It is exactly what we have done but they took more points and had less draws than we did. That has been the difference until now," he added.
"We will come back. Now we have six games, four at home, and if we do well in this block I think we have a chance to come back. But of course it is vital for us to do well in these games," he said.
Arsenal face Swansea City at home on Saturday. (ANI)

The beautiful Isle of Purbeck is a walker's paradise. From coast to country, the variety is unsurpassed. Why not consider a walking in Dorset holiday this year?
The Dorset coastal walking is spectacular. From a stroll along the beach in beautiful Victorian Swanage to a serious hike along the South West Coast Path and the Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage site, the Swanage & Purbeck Walking Festival is truly special too. But walking in Dorset hinterland is extraordinary too – wonderful heathland, walking through designated Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Sites of Special Scientific Interest, with the added attraction of sea glimpses wherever you turn.
This tranquil area of Dorset is home to many rare species of birds, wildflowers, butterflies and reptiles. Walks take in the wildlife paradise of Durlston Country Park, heathland at Studland, limestone cliffs along the coast and the RSPB reserve at Arne.
Walking in Dorset
Purbeck offers something for everyone and our walks have been designed to show as much of the area as possible. Some include a pub lunch in a typical Dorset village and others a ride home on the steam train .
The area is steeped in Dorset history, the Civil War ruin of Corfe Castle, the evacuated village at Tyneham and, of course, the unique geology of the area. This year we have three walks with a 'War' theme commemorating both World Wars, a new 'Family Bug' walk, quarrying, shipwrecks, smuggling, fossils, literature, art, photography and ghost stories. Really a walk for everyone.
Purbeck Stone has been quarried for generations and evidence of the industry can be seen all around you. Blasted caves on the coast, machinery on the cliffs and the architectural gems of Swanage attest to the area's quarrying legacy, which still continues today.
Accommodation is plentiful and varied. Choose from a wide selection of hotels, guest houses, B&B's, pubs, rural farmhouses, caravan and camping sites.
After your walk, whether you fancy a cream tea, fish and chips, a bar meal or fine dining, you will find what suits you.
We look forward to welcoming you to this unspoilt and often overlooked part of the country. Enjoy all it has to offer and make walking in Dorset a must for you in 2016.

Each year, The SF/SPCA find homes for thousands of dogs and cats and provides veterinary care to as many as 30,000. Our subsidized Spay/Neuter Clinic has performed procedures on approximately 150,000 cats and dogs, greatly reducing the number of surplus kittens and puppies.
Unlike "pass/fail" application programs, we strive to match people and animals through education and discovery. We accomplish this through conversation to create an effective, pleasant adoption experience — and most important — to make lasting matches.
Each situation, adopter and animal requires a different approach. And while we reserve the right to refuse an adoption, we always make every effort to work with you to address concerns or find the most appropriate companion animal.
Please plan on spending at least one hour for the adoption process — we're confident that you'll agree that this small investment of time will be well worth the countless hours of enjoyment that will result from finding "the perfect match."
Requirements for Adoption
Before falling in love with one of our animals, please make sure you are aware of the following:
Adopters must be at least 18 years old and present valid photo ID with proof of current address.
Some adoptions require attendance of a training class.
We encourage or may require all household members to meet the new dog or cat prior to adoption.
If you have a dog and want to adopt another, please bring your resident dog.
Written landlord approval, proof of home ownership, and/or home visit may be required.
While we always make every effort to work with you to address concerns or find the most appropriate companion animal, we do reserve the right to refuse an adoption.
Thank You!
Your message has been sent to The San Francisco SPCA.
You'll receive a copy, too, at to help you keep track of which pets you've inquired about, and which shelters and rescues you've emailed.
NOTE: Some shelters have physical locations you can visit; some of these shelters may only have pets for a limited time, so please do not wait for a reply—just go visit the shelter! Other organizations are rescue groups run by busy volunteers who may take a while to reply. You can find information about the shelter or rescue group caring for this pet, and their adoption procedures, on the pet's details page on Adopt-a-Pet.com.

TRAVELLERS could be allowed to set up home permanently in Burnley under a council plan.
An authorised camp site is being proposed at Spa Wood Farm, off Billington Road, as part of a long-term vision for the town.
The idea has been welcomed by a travellers charity but a former leader of Burnley Council has blasted the plans.
Gannow councillor Charles Briggs said: "I don't want travellers in Burnley. I'm one of those people who feel Burnley is not the place for that.
"We had problems at Cog Lane and Hameldon Community College just before Christmas. The kids were throwing stones at residents' windows.
"If they pay their dues then that's fine but they don't seem to want to pay. It must cost the council a fortune in time and effort to remove them."
Mike Doherty, from The Traveller Movement charity, said: "We welcome any creation of new permanent sites.
"Burnley Council is to be applauded as long as the site is suitable and viable. A lot of unauthorised encampments are a result of a lack of authorised provision - sometimes councils have to step in.
"Most well-managed sites become an active part of the community after a bedding-in period."
The Burnley Council report, based on a study carried out by the University of Salford in 2012, envisages a need for 28 pitches to be created between now and 2026.
That would mean the creation of 22 pitches by 2016, with a further three between 2017 and 2021, and another three between 2022 and 2026.
According to the report, Spa Wood Farm is currently used by gypsies and travellers without permission, while the council is awaiting the results of a survey to discover if protected animal species use the land.
Trinity councillor Howard Baker said: "I wouldn't expect any problems with that site. It's out of the way, with good motorway access and not too many residents.
"I'm not sure whether it will alleviate the problem in Trinity but it seems like a good site to me moving forward."
In the past 18 months, travellers have set up camps at several sites across Burnley, including Towneley Park, the vacant Ivy Bank High School site in Byron Street, and the car parks of the General Havelock pub and the Travelodge, both in Barracks Road.
Caravans have also been served with notices to leave land off Harwold Avenue on the Stoops Estate, Whittlefield Recreation Park in Gannow, Cog Lane, Tay Street and Hargher Street.
The proposal is part of Burnley's Local Plan: Issues and Options.
It said: "Research has shown that a lack of suitable accommodation and poor conditions is related to poor educational attainment and health, as well as being at the root of ill-feeling between the non-traveller community and gypsies and travellers.
"In addition, addressing accommodation will reduce the costs of maintaining the process that surrounds unauthorised encampments and developments."
The Housing Act 2004 placed a duty upon councils to produce assessments of accommodation needs for gypsies and travellers.
Neighbouring Hyndburn has had an authorised caravan site for up to 15 pitches at Whinney Hill Road, in Altham, since 1981.
The draft Local Plan document, which highlights the borough's prospective housing and infrastructure needs for the next two decades, will be presented to Burnley Council's executive next Tuesday, when councillors will be asked to approve a public consultation on the issue.
Coun Shah Hussain, executive member for regeneration and economic development, said: "We have to get this right so we can control future development and do all we can to make sure it happens where and how we want it to, in the best interests of the whole borough."
If agreed, the consultation will run for six weeks from mid-February to the end of March. It will then go out for further consultation later this year before a final Local Plan is submitted to the Government in 2015.

Have you ever watched one of those "As Seen on TV" commercials (a.k.a. infomercials) and thought…Why didn't I think of that?
That's exactly how I felt when I saw the Turbie Twist commercial for the first time. And when I finally got my hands on one, it was confirmed…I should of invented this!
I've been throwing my wet hair up in towels since I can remember. And when you're hair is soaking wet, it takes for ever to dry and you have a heavy towel on your head. My hair is long too!
Not with the Turbie Twist. I don't want to sound like an infomercial, but when I used it for the first time I was kinda in love. It's so comfortable and easy to put on, I kind of forgot I had it on in the first place. And because this new one is made of microfiber, my hair did dry a lot faster. It's a one size fits all, machine washable, and affordable.
I will admit I haven't washed it yet, so I'm not sure of the quality after the wash. But, for now…it's doing its job.
Take a look at the commercial below:
Have you ever tried the Turbie Twist? What do you think?
Disclosure: This is NOT a sponsored post. The item was complimentary. The above is my true and honest opinion.

The Crap We Missed – Monday 7.16.12
"Relax babe, McConaughey's old man drove the Winnebago coast to coast like this."
Welcome to Monday's The Crap We Missed which is almost entirely comprised of Comic-Con T&A and/or anyone who showed up in Captain Douche cosplay. Fortunately there was enough room to squeeze in Shauna Sand's nipple saying it all with its extremely uncalled for close proximity to her child's face, Biz Markie, who's apparently got what your kids need too, and sure, it seems like Mickey Rourke has some good friends, but will they be around to mold his face into a human expression when the cameras aren't around? Only time will tell.

I checked and it is a for sure a real user. Why would she be signed in under another user's account?

Who Is Ian Mahinmi?
by Jared Wade on July 12, 2012 at 9:31 am · 5 comments
The newest Pacer is someone with whom many Hoosiers many not be familiar. He has never put up high numbers and rarely been featured on Sportscenter. But he has been a solid rotation player for much of the past two years and did mop up some quality minutes in the NBA Finals when the Mavericks beat the Heat. He is also generally viewed positively by those who have played with and coached him, and he still has a lot of room to improve as a player, even though he will never break out into someone who really should ever be starting for a contender.
For more, I reached out to Rob Mahoney with some questions.
Mahoney literally wrote the book on the Dallas Mavericks' 2011 NBA Title and probably has written the equivalent of 40 more books on the Mavs over at The Two-Man Game in the past few years. He is also among the top half dozen or so NBA writers on the planet and proves it day after day for The New York Times, Bleacher Report, and The Classical, among others. (Follow him on Twitter.)
Here is our Q&A on Ian Mahinmi. (Pronounced Yan MY-ee-me, FYI.)
Rob Mahoney: Ian deciphers basketball as if it were a foreign language — fitting for a French national attempting to find his way through the most innately American game. He's come a long way since his days as raw material for the San Antonio Spurs' developmental complex, but that doesn't mean the game comes naturally to him or that his athleticism makes anything simple. Mahinmi has some impressive physical tools, but he plays as if he's solely the product of what he's learned, with no instinctive basis to call his own.
That said, Mahinmi has put together a nice little repertoire over the years. He grew into a wonderful pick-and-roll finisher opposite Jason Terry. He worked on his mid-range touch and became relatively consistent in spotting up from about 15 feet. He honed a post move or two even if he hasn't gotten much of a chance to work from the block. He's a mobile defender, and active shot blocker, and a hard worker. Some elements of the game (bits of defensive judgment, box-out technique, etc.) just manage to escape him.
My general assessment may seem negative, but that's hardly my intent. Mahinmi is just a student of the game — a term I use not to indicate that he's a basketball junkie, but simply that his knowledge base (and his effectiveness) is still growing, as it has been over the last several seasons.
What did he contribute to the Mavs over the past two years?
Rob Mahoney: Mahinmi chipped in solid minutes as a reserve big for Dallas, first as a third center and more recently as a member of a triumvirate that split minutes at the position. His flaws are more apparent the longer he stays on the floor, but with regulated playing time, Mahinmi brings a nice infusion of energy, some decent catch-and-finish potential, and active defense. He doesn't have any standout strengths, but legitimately does many things quite well.
Why did Dallas seemingly have such disinterest in bringing him back? Was it totally due to wanting to maintain cap flexibility and not commit anything to a role player? Were there other reasons?
Rob Mahoney: Mostly that; Brandan Wright's emergence has made Mahinmi a bit expendable in Dallas, and that development compounded with the Mavs' salary considerations made bringing back Mahinmi improbable at the least. My understanding is that Mahinmi was looking for a multi-year deal, and with Dallas unable to oblige and a few other teams interested (Indiana obviously included), a split was almost inevitable.
How do you see him fitting in behind Roy Hibbert and David West?
Rob Mahoney: Pretty well, though he's hardly a cure-all. The rebounding deficit could prove to be a bit problematic, though Mahinmi is nevertheless a better overall fit than Tyler Hansbrough or Lou Amundson by way of his defense. Offensively, I'm not sure who couldn't fit in with such versatile bigs; Hibbert and West are both so high-low flexible, and while Mahinmi doesn't have some particular patch of real estate to call his own, he should do well in revolving around either Pacer big man.

About the Creator
Morsi is a writer and photographer, but in a past life he's also earned his bread by programming commercial aircraft, designing websites, and doing graphic design, not to mention all types of construction trades, including carpentry, electrical engineering, and ship building, as well as fishing, skippering boats, or driving trucks, cars, or forklifts. A native of Egypt who's spent a good deal of his life in Copenhagen, Denmark, he's travelled the world twice over, and is now based somewhere in Asia or Australia. But these words merely describe the way he earns a living, but not the way he lives. He's an example of that rare breed one is lucky enough to encounter but a few times in a given life; the autodidact man. ~Erik Thomas Johnson~

Is it possible to fire terra cotta clay on a gas grill? I read some posts about using a charcoal grill to fire clay and thought that a gas grill might work, but after leaving it on the grill for an hour and cooling overnight, the clay still dissolves in water. I am interested in making ollas or pitchers buried in the ground with just the opening spout showing at the ground level for irrigation purposes. The clay needs to be waterproof, able to hold water, but porous so that the water seeps into the soil slowly as plants have need for water.

In order for clay to become 'permanent', able to get wet without slaking down, it must be fired to at least 1100F degrees, preferably even hotter to make it durable. This can be accomplished with a charcoal grill, but a gas grill won't do it. The charcoal grill method can result in a pretty high loss rate if you go too fast.

To fire terra cotta to a vitrified maturity is should go to ^1 or 3 depending on the terra cotta.
You won't stabilize the clay body on a grill.

Segmented Crash Pad
Made up of fully-integrated shock absorbers to provide cushion and smooth heel-to-toe transition, maximizing the efficiency of every stride.Learn more
What is it?
Brooks DNA is an innovative and uniquely adaptive cushioning system. By adapting to your specific weight, pace, gait and running surface, DNA offers customized cushioning and adds a spring to your step.
Traditional cushioning takes a one-size-fits-all approach, but we know that each runner is different. Brooks DNA was developed to continuously tailor the level of cushioning to your specific needs – even as they change during the run.
How does it work?
Brooks DNA is made up of a highly viscous non-Newtonian material or more simply put, a material that adapts to the specific force you apply to it. Part of the brilliance is that this compound was engineered to perform at the molecular level (picture millions of resilient 'nanosprings').
If you looked at Brooks DNA through a microscope, you'd see that it's made up of individual molecules connected in strands. These strands (which form chains) react to the amount of force placed on the foot, dispersing pressure and providing resiliency. Bottom line of this physics lesson: You get tailored cushioning that reacts to your specific weight, pace, gait, movement and running environment – "made-for-me" cushioning vs. "one size fits all."
And, as with all good technology, we've taken it a step further (two steps actually):
- BioMoGo DNA is DNA technology blended with the BioMoGo midsole to provide adaptive cushioning throughout the midsole vs. just in the heel and forefoot.
- BioMoGo DNA midsole includes an organic, non-toxic additive that biodegrades the midsole 50 times faster than traditional EVA when it comes into contact with anaerobic landfill microbes (otherwise known as active, enclosed landfills).
- 30% more cushioning than standard midsole materials (gel or EVA)
- Twice as much energy return for more pep in your step
- Great performance no matter your weight or running pace
- Smoother transition from heel to toe
What is it?
The Segmented Crash Pad customizes your foot's lay-down to provide amazing cushion and smooth heel-to-toe transition throughout the run.
How does it work?
We know that a key component of maximizing your run is to provide the smoothest possible heel-to-toe transition. The Segmented Crash Pad is one technology we use to achieve this goal.
Shaped like a caterpillar, the Segmented Crash Pad is a midsole made up of independent, yet fully integrated shock absorbers. As your foot strikes the ground, the segments work together to customize your individual lay down to provide the right amount of cushion and seamless heel-to-toe transition for you – making the most of all that effort you put into each stride.

Bevin's Adventure with JRA Begins
5 comments:
I know it's a tough situation, made tougher by having to watch your child in pain and not being able to help but things will get better. Just have to find the right medicines to help her, sometimes it takes months to find a combination that works. My husband has RA and has had it since he was a kid, some days you'd never know he has it, others you can tell he's in severe pain and trying to hide it. Kids are resilient and with you catching it early there's plenty of time for her to adapt and find something that works. You're a strong, smart, beautiful mother and you're doing the best you can and that's what matters. It may not seem like things are getting better for a while but just remember that everything happens for a reason.ReplyDelete
Thank you for sharing. Know that you have many people near and far that are wishing they could send you more than just happy thoughts and encouragement.ReplyDelete
Nicole, just read your blog and comment on our blog this morning. As I am scheduled to go into Kaiser today for some minor surgery myself, your story has brought me courage. You are such an amazing person and I know you will continue to keep up the fight in finding root causes for Bevin's challenges and doing whatever you can to remedy them in seeking all of the help and research that you need. Even in her passing, we are still finding that it is ultimately up to us to advocate for Grace and make sure that her short time here was definitely purposeful. Seeing you start this blog about your own daughter has meant the world to me. I hope it is as helpful and therapeutic as it has been for us. I am including Bevin in my prayers and thoughts every day, as well as your family. I hope that in 2011 you find the answers that will bring peace and happiness, no matter what life's road has in store.ReplyDelete
Hi Nicole, thank you for sharing Bevin's story. I know this may seem like a lot right now, but you and your family will be able to handle it. With adversity comes strength. You'd be surprised what you can handle when the needs of your child calls upon you.ReplyDelete
I don't know much about JRA, but it sounds like it can be manageable with the right meds and treatment. I hope to learn more through your blog. We'll be pulling for her during this difficult time.
Hi Nicole! I just read your blog and my heart ache's for Bevin and you and you start on this journey. What Brien said about being able to handle it is exactly true. It's just an amazing strength that comes to you. My daughter Meghan started having seizures two years ago, and everyday is a battle filled with so much unknown, but I pull my strength from her.ReplyDelete
I have to tell you that Meghan sounds exactly like Bevin. Because of Meghan's seizures and the medications that she is own, we have said 100 times that she walks like a drunken sailor!!! We even call her Captain Jack sometimes :) Also, she has the strongest personality along with the fit throwing. Hang in there :)
Thank you for sharing Bevin's story. I will keep you all in my prayers!
