The LibXDiff library implements basic and yet complete functionalities to create file differences/patches to both binary and text files. It uses memory files as file abstraction to achieve both performance and portability. For binary files, it implements both (with some modification) the algorithm described in "File System Support for Delta Compression" by Joshua P. MacDonald and the algorithm described in "Fingerprinting By Random Polynomials" by Michael O. Rabin. For text files, it follows directives described in "An O(ND) Difference Algorithm and Its Variations" by Eugene W. Myers. Memory files used by the library are basically a collection of buffers that store the file content.
PHP Mobile Mail is aimed at mobile professionals who want to use their favorite MUAs (noteably pine or mutt) on their laptop, either in UNIX or Windows (under GNU Gygwin). This lets you work offline. It includes a mail_spooler program, which accepts the output of you MUA and spools (on, or offline). When connected, another process parses through the spool and sends your messages. It is also designed to "fake" using your REAL email address with free services like gmx.net, or mail.yahoo.com, when using their POP and SMTP servers, assuming you have a domain and account that you can control to this degree.
ProteomeCommons.org IO Framework is a proper Java framework for handling spectra and peak lists. The framework can read and write to a number of different spectra and peak list formats, and it provides a simple, intuitive Java object model for working with spectra or peak lists. All classes support two methods of handling peak list and spectrum data: in-memory or stream. The goal of this framework is to support all the popular MS and MSMS data formats, and to eliminate any time or effort involved in figuring out how to read and write peak list or spectrum files.

Holy Smokes! O.co ships super fast and you can't beat the free shipping. Anyways, just got the boots today. I was looking for a mid-calf boot because it is nearly impossible to find boots that fit a 16" calf. I tried them on and they fit true to size, you kinda have to work into the ankle support or frame thingy. I usually wear between an 8 and 9, they only had 8 in the Brown (which is a true brown, not the cherry brown in the picture). They are ubber comfortable, warm and stylish. Cannot wait to get a whole days used out of them. I want to order them in black in the near future. Buy them, you will not regret it! By the way, they are faux leather, but they don't look cheap or have a weird odor.
These boots are super comfortable and very warm. They are great for rainy weather too. The only down side is that the back of the boots (by the sole) are wearing down a little already. But great deal for the price. Cute boots!!!
Cute flat boot - generous space in the calf. The sole is thin, but should be fine for inside and to and from the car.
These boots worked out great, they were exactly what I was looking for in an inexpensive boot.
These boots are adorable, look even more like real leather in person than online and feel like slippers when you wear them. They are my absolute favorite shoes of the fall!
I told so many people about your website and I hope that they ordered something.
I have a brown pair of these boots and wanted a black pair. I couldn't find them in the store where I bought the brown pair and was very disappointed. My friend suggested looking here and when I found them I was very pleased. When they came in the mail I was excited to wear them. I wear them at least 3 - 4 times a week.
Nice boot but the sole is thin. They will be okay because it doesn't get really cold where I live.
I really like the way this boot feels. Good buy. The softness of the boots feels great.
The most comfortable boot I've worn. Did mot need to break them in. I ordered the same in another color the day after I put them on!

I just got back from the apple store where i purchased a new iphone in anticipation of the new unlock coming from the dev team.
anyhow, as usual the sales person says "are you using it in the US, not going to unlock it, etc"
of course i say yes
she then goes onto say that if you unlock it, it won't be functional in 3 months.
I replied, oh, there is a new update coming then?
she replies, No, its made to do that, the phone is not meant to be unlocked so once you do, it activates something inside then over the course of 3 months your phone will no longer work...
i purchased the phone anyways.
is this even possible?
Unfortunately...this isnt' the first time i've heard it from an apple CS person, the first time, the guy was a complete idiot so I took it with a grain of salt.
Has anyone else heard this?

When it comes to kids and homework, more isn't necessarily better, according to a new study out of the University of Virginia. 'When Is Homework Worth the Time' looks at student achievements in comparison to time spent on homework. Researchers said the findings were surprising.
"The more time students spend on homework, it's not clear that they are getting better grades or better test scores," said Robert Tai, an associate professor with the Curry School of Education at UVa.
Tai and two co-authors looked at transcripts and data for more than 18,000 tenth grade students nationwide. Their findings show more homework assignments didn't translate into better grades.
"What we are concerned with is that homework is just being assigned rather than being used to integrate what's going on in the classroom," said Tai.
The study isn't suggesting all homework is bad, especially when it comes to math. "When it comes to math, what we found is that there is a bit of a sweet spot," Tai said. "Students that were spending about a half an hour on math homework were reporting that their grades and test scores were actually better."
Tai says the study is a wake up call for educators. "Teachers need to be much more clear about why they are assigning homework and what the homework is for," Tai said. "If teachers aren't really incorporating homework into their teaching, it's unclear there is any type of benefit at all and it actually may end up hurting students."
The study points to factors like class participation and attendance as better indicators of students performance.

Blood and tears as the world observes Muharram
Muharram, the first month of the Islamic calendar, is one of four sacred months in Islam. The tenth day of Muharram, Ashura, is a solemn day of mourning and one significant for the martyrdom of Hussein ibn Ali, the grandson of the Prophet Muhammad, in the battle of Karbala in AD 680 by the armies of the Caliph Yazid.
From the first day of Muharram, Shia Muslims take out processions in the street mourning the death of Hussein. Chanting, weeping and flagellation with whips as well as self-mutilation with knives are characteristics of Muharram observance and can be observed in countries where there is a significant population of Shia Muslims. These pictures of Muharram observances from around the world come to you from Afghanistan, India, Iraq, Lebanon, Trinidad and Tobago, Yemen, Myanmar, the United Kingdom and Iran.

For a team that was on life support just two months ago, Towson University's baseball team sure shows a lot of life.
How great is the story the Tigers are writing this spring?
In March they were told by school president Maravene Loeschke that the program was being dropped for budget and Title IX compliance reasons, only to have it saved when the state stepped into the huge PR disaster with an infusion of cash.
Now here they are going to the NCAA tournament after winning their first ever Colonial Athletic Association championship Saturday with a 5-2 win over William & Mary in Harrisonburg, Va.
The whole thing reads like a Hollywood script: once-doomed team, now a gritty No. 4 seed in the league tournament, goes undefeated in four pressurized games to make it to the Big Dance for the first time since 1991.
"I had all my hair back then and it was all brown," Tigers coach Mike Gottlieb said with a laugh Sunday. "And I didn't have to wake up at night to go to the bathroom."
Gottlieb is 56 now, a cheerful transplanted New Yorker who's been the Tigers' coach since 1988. He's probably experienced more than his share of ups and downs with the program.
But that March weekend after Loeschke made her bombshell announcement that Towson was dropping baseball and soccer felt like the worst gut punch Gottlieb and his team had ever taken.
That Friday, the Tigers dropped a 3-2 game in 10 innings to Delaware at Towson's John Schuerholz Park, and the sense of grief was palpable.
"At the end of the game," Gottlieb recalled, "I take the kids to the locker room and every ounce of energy is drained from them. It was like a funeral home. That was painful to watch. At that point in time, I didn't know what to say to them. I couldn't help them."
Then came the surprise April announcement that Gov. Martin O'Malley was including an additional $300,000 in his 2014 budget to save baseball.
Gottlieb likened it at the time to the Death Row inmate who gets a last-minute reprieve from the governor. But state lawmakers quickly stepped in and agreed to send money to the University System of Maryland instead, to be used as matching funds by the baseball and soccer programs.
No matter — Towson baseball was saved. And the Tigers made the most of their new life.
"They certainly didn't show any quit," Gottlieb said. "They're a unique bunch."
The modest Gottlieb downplays his own role as a steadying influence or a motivator for his players back when the team's future looked bleak.
The Tigers definitely didn't hear any fiery speeches that would make anyone forget Knute Rockne or Vince Lombardi or anyone else who could peel paint off the locker room walls and send a team charging out the door in full froth.
"I can't tell you I ever said anything that could go down in the history book of great coaching quotes," he said. "Heck, I don't even remember what I said. Nothing that'll ever end up on my tombstone, that's for sure."
But here the Tigers are anyway, 29-28 and CAA champs, ready to see how long this wonderful ride lasts.
They got a great game from senior right-hander Mike Volpe in the final win against William & Mary. Pitching on just two days rest, Volpe gave up seven hits and two runs. He walked two and struck out six and didn't allow a hit after the sixth inning, retiring 11 of the last 12 hitters he faced.
"The last time someone pitched on two days rest," Gottlieb crowed, "it was Sandy Koufax in Game 7 of the 1965 World Series!"
Junior DH Kurt Wertz also came up big, going 2-for-4 with a homer and double and three RBIs, batting .412 for the tournament with six ribbies. And third baseman Zach Fisher was named the tournament's MVP, batting .476 with a double, three home runs and 10 RBIs.
When it was over, when the Tigers had finally untangled themselves from a jubilant scrum on the pitching mound and posed joyfully for team photos with the championship trophy, it was Wertz who offered the perfect coda for this crazy season.
"This," he told his coach, "is the best moment of my life."
"When I hear [that], it makes it all worthwhile," Gottlieb said.
Now the Tigers will gather Monday afternoon at the Charles Village Pub in Towson to hear who they'll play in the first round of the 64-team NCAA tournament.
The great ride isn't over yet. And no one wants it to end.

Phonocardiograph, Cambridge, England, 1921-1929
Physicians listened to and recorded the sounds of the heart and lungs using a phonocardiograph machine. It was known as the Cambridge Electrite Cardiograph. Unusual noises such as heart murmurs can indicate abnormalities within these organs. This machine was used at the Cardiothoracic Institute in London. It was made by the Cambridge Instrument Company Limited sometime between 1921 and 1929. It allowed doctors to listen to the heart and lungs via binaural stethoscopes. The machine also printed a trace of the patient's heart beat to assist diagnosis.

AUBURN — Defensive backs can tackle, too.
That's what Jonathon Mincy felt he and his fellow secondary mates proved Saturday, in Auburn's 38-9 victory over Arkansas State.
Senior corner Chris Davis was the Tigers' top tackler, totaling 10 with seven solos. Corner Ryan White (five tackles) and starting safeties Jermaine Whitehead and Josh Holsey (four tackles apiece) had their share of stops, as well.
Seeing all those takedowns attributed to those on the back end of the defense brought a smile to Mincy's face.
"It makes us feel good, and that's something (where) we don't want to base ourselves on just being coverage corners," he said. "We want to be up there with the tackles as well, so that was good seeing (Davis) come out and leading the team in tackles."
Mincy didn't get in on the action as much himself, collecting only one tackle. He was pleased to see Davis took care of the other side of the field, though.
"I know their offense was more so going toward the boundary, so it was a great opportunity for Chris to make a lot of plays, which he did," Mincy said. "So we were very happy with that."
Auburn coach Gus Malzahn agreed. He said that the play of the secondary (corners specifically) was one of the highlights of the spring.
More importantly, that high level of play has carried over to the fall.
"We felt like that was one of the strengths of our defense," Malzahn said. "(Cornerbacks) Coach (Melvin) Smith's done an excellent job with those guys, and he's put them in position to make plays, him and (defensive coordinator) Coach (Ellis) Johnson.
"They're playing extremely well. Not just in the pass game, but they're helping us in the run game too."
Mincy made one thing clear: giving all the credit to the secondary would be wrong. Take away the push the defensive line gets up front, and Mincy's job becomes much harder.
"It's just made this defense click a lot better when you have pressure," he said. "You have some outstanding people on the line that's going to rattle a quarterback or make any time of interruptions, and that will help us in coverage and make us better (at forcing) turnovers."
FROST EJECTION LEARNING EXPERIENCE: Malzahn never considered appealing Kris Frost's ejection when it occurred Saturday.
Of course, that's because he couldn't. Showing off his familiarity with the rules on reviewing plays, Malzahn noted that once the call was made, there was nothing Auburn could do about it.
"You can challenge it, but once the booth guy makes the call, it's set," he said. "I did not challenge it."
Much like the players, coaches are still learning the intricacies of how targeting will be officiated going forward. Malzahn said Frost's ejection and subsequent suspension for the first half of Saturday's SEC opener against Mississippi State would serve as a teaching moment for the coaching staff.
"You've got to coach it different," he said. "We kind of understood that before, but there's also experiences."
INJURY UPDATES: Defensive end Dee Ford and "Star" Justin Garrett practiced on Monday, Malzahn said. He also said the pair would take part in Tuesday's practice. However, the coach didn't hint whether either would be available to play Saturday.
There were no such worries about the team's reigning tackles leader, Davis. The senior cornerback gingerly walked off the field late in the game and did not return.
"Chris is doing fine, and we expect him to play," Malzahn said.
Defensive end Keymiya Harrell, who has been sidelined since the spring following surgery on his right knee, may be back soon.
"(He's) getting close, or closer," Malzahn said.
At the opposite end of the spectrum is Jonathan Jones. Jones broke his ankle in an off-field accident days before the end of fall camp, and Malzahn said it is "going to be awhile" before Jones takes the field again.

TUSCALOOSA — This week's matchup against Texas A&M presents an interesting task for Alabama's defensive linemen. The Crimson Tide want to rush the passer, but have to be disciplined and keep Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel contained.
"Our strategy is to keep Johnny Manziel in the pocket as much as possible and try and keep good pass rush lanes, try and keep him as a traditional quarterback," Tide defensive end Jeoffrey Pagan said. "When he gets outside the pocket, that's where he makes the most plays."
But how do you keep him in the pocket?
"It's all about the games we run, the stunts that we'll have up front," Pagan said. "If we have a game where something is inside, then we'll have somebody outside to cover the game. It's all about really our rush lanes and us staying in the right position."
What about when Manziel escapes the pocket?
"You've just got to look at his hips and look at the right things," Pagan said. "You can't get caught looking at his feet or hands or his head or anything like that. You've just got to look at his hips because his hips will never lie."
Still, there's no secret formula to stopping Manziel.
"We've just got to play Alabama football, play the way the coaches have our game plan mapped out and just pretty much do what we do here," Pagan said.
TRASH TALK: Tide coach Nick Saban sees no reason for his players to ever talk to Texas A&M players during the game.
When asked whether trash talk is a part of the Tide's game, Saban shot down any notion of his players using it against any opponent.
"It's never a part of our game," Saban said. "I mean, we tell our players there's no circumstance where you need to talk to another player, and there's been very little of that with our team."
Manziel received an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty during the Aggies' season opener against Rice for taunting. Aggie coach Kevin Sumlin benched Manziel following the flag and said he wouldn't have returned to the game no matter the circumstances.
Manziel kept a calm head, for the most part, against Sam Houston State, and Sumlin spoke highly of his quarterback's calm demeanor after the week 2 victory.
"I think he saw some times today that he saw some questionable things happening after the play that he walked away from," Sumlin said. "That's going to happen. We had that conversation last week about things happening on the field and people saying things to him and taking shots. That's the way it is.
"Is that fair? Probably not, but that's where we are."

Audit committees used to press veteran CFO Christine Russell on why her cash investments weren't earning higher yields. Now, after witnessing liquidity freezes in once-safe havens like auction-rate securities, they are less concerned with making money than with hanging on to it.
Scrutinizing a routine cash-management issue is just one of the new items on top of audit committees' agendas these days. As companies across all industries reassess their risk appetites, their audit committees are conducting similar self-evaluations — and often reordering the priorities they deem worthy of their worry.
That has resulted in broader mandates, more discretion in agenda-setting, and many more questions for company executives, particularly CFOs. Certainly audit committees still have to pay attention to compliance and other tasks related to Sarbanes-Oxley, but "the emphasis has changed to strategy, operations, and managing financial risk," says Ed Thompson, former CFO of Amdahl who chairs four audit committees, including those at ShoreTel and InnoPath Software.
Finance executives should expect to hear from audit-committee members more frequently and answer more-probing questions. Many already do. "There's been a shift, and audit committees have had to become more proactive," says Ed Terino, a former finance chief who heads three audit committees, including that of Phoenix Technologies. He says he often speaks weekly with the CFOs of those companies.
Somewhat surprisingly, what's not high on the new list is heightened concern about financial-statement fraud, which was the big hot-button issue following the last crisis. For the most part, in fact, "the number of financial-reporting failures has been relatively small given the magnitude of the latest downturn," says Joseph Carcello, an accounting professor at the University of Tennessee.
What has risen to the top of the priority list for many audit-committee members is monitoring the safety of cash investments, thanks to lessons learned from such events as Lehman Brothers's rapid demise, the freeze-up in the commercial-paper market, and lack of confidence in credit ratings. "Audit committees are taking more seriously the types of investments their companies are allowed to make with their cash," says Russell, who is CFO of Evans Analytical Group, which runs a network of laboratories, and chairs the audit committee for semiconductor company QuickLogic.
Likewise, the financial crisis and its accompanying controversy surrounding banks' "fair-value" valuations of assets such as mortgage-backed securities, plus accounting-standard-setters' attention to the matter, have forced audit committees to ask more questions surrounding nonfinancial companies' valuations of their securities. These estimates "involve tremendous judgment, and they're hard to do well," Carcello says.
Audit committees have also become a prime source of risk-management oversight, in ways that go far beyond the direct risk to financial statements. Nearly two-thirds of audit committees are now responsible for some type of risk oversight; of those, 36% now track strategic and emerging risks, double last year's number, according to a recent survey of executives by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and North Carolina State University.

GreatSchools Rating
As you can see from the reviews, WISCO is an ALL or nothing experience. Your child will do very well or it will be a disaster. It's your risk to take with your child's future. My suggestion is if they struggle at all in the first semester pull them out early second semester and find someplace else.
We sent our son to WLHS because it was an opportunity for him to have a cross cultural experience in a safe setting. His classmates were a mix of suburban, urban, and international teens. No where else could he have found a nurturing, safe environment like this one. He had the opportunity to excel and grow emotionally, intellectually and spiritually. What a terrific foundation this school builds for its students!
My son has several learning challenges and came to WLHS with a documented IEP. The Wisco faculty was superior in following his educational plan and we couldn't have been happier with the outcome! He graduated with a 3.0 and is on track for a 4 year college program. Great guidance program!
Wisconsin Lutheran High School is a special place because it does a great job of blending a variety of cultures into a very positive school culture. Along with excellent academics and co-curricular activities, WLHS provides an excellent Christ-focused education! Teachers care about the bodies and minds of their students, for sure. But above all, they care for the souls of their students. Over 100 years of experience in Lutheran, Christian education makes this a strong, vibrant, orderly, and academically excellent school!
If you want a high quality, Christ-centered education in an atmoshphere that feels like family, Wisconsin Lutheran High School is the place for you! In my 15 years as an educator, I have never seen another school as high performing in so many areas than I have at WLHS. From athletics to music, acedemics to spirtual life, AP classes to low level support, this high school does it all and to the glory of God! Our volunteer coahes put more time and effort into their season than most coaches who are paid. Both coaches and teachers have a genuine Christian love for all students. They want students to succeed in the classroom, in athletics, but most importantly, they want to encourage students to be Christ-like leaders in their homes, communities, and churches. The cost of WLHS is reasonable for a private Christian school and is money well spent for parents and of course the graduates who will reap the benefits of all Wisconsin Lutheran has to offer. Anyone who has seen this school in action during a school day is amazed at how friendly everyone is and how well behaved the students are. This high school is one of few in the country that is operating at such a high level! Awesome!
WISCO is a great school for kids who have a history of excellent grades in junior high school or middle school, strictly A&B students, all others need not apply and shouldn;t apply you will be wasting a lot of money. Statistics are very important to WISCO and students who bring down the statistics will be cast aside, regardless of race. The put little effort into helping the kids that need it most. Rules are inconsistently enforced. Less than half the teacher even keep up the weekly reporting on line let alone daily. All the while the guidance office and administration hale the value of the online progress reportign system. I have seen weeks go by with no updates by more than 1 teacher. Guidance does not do as they say. they told us to trust them as they know what they are doing. That's a laugh. Trusting them cost a small fortune and a teen with nowhere to go for an education. So unless your child has a history of A&B's save your money and your child's time look elsewhere for an education. An utter waste, practically criminal!
Very biased school, coming from a student that attended Wisconsin Lutheran High School. This school does not really allow students to speak their mind compared to a public school were creativity and open mindedness are encouraged. So many kids at this high school have many gifts and great ideas, but they administration seemingly scares the kids away from handing out opinions in fear of being degraded. If you want your child to have a closed mind and only pertain to Christ, go to WISCO, but if you want your child to explore their minds pick a public school. May I remind you ask half of the kids when Black history month is, and why ethnic fest is not part of the schools schedule.
The teaching staff is extremely dedicated to teaching the students to achieve their goal. If your child has the desire to achieve great things, they will do everything in their God given abilities to help.
Great school if you enjoy being an unimaginative meticulous brown noser. However, if you enjoy deep thinking outside of the box, and exiting points of view, along with encouraging inspiration. Run... and run fast. Good for traditional German Wisconsinites who want to teach at a Lutheran Grade School while trudging around in the snow 6 months every year for the rest of your life. If you want to go back to 1947, the doors welcome you. You will never want to leave your comfort zone here at WLHS! Otherwise, if you desire intellectual stimulation and creativity, don't even think about it. Teachers (not all) are often condescending/arrogant and the school is very discipline based, but if you hate being a unique individual it's cool i guess.
There is a fine line between ethical responsibility and completely ignorant legalism. Constructive criticism is nowhere in the vocabulary of wisco administration or staff, some of which resort to putdowns and arrogance to compensate for their lack of ability to harness ingenuity. It's highly unfortunate to see so much talent wasted through the unfairly subjective views of the judgmental administration tactics. I am conservative and realize that ethics and moral responsibility are important for the development of a teenager, but not in place of their confidence as a human being. It's more of a pharisee's temple than Jesus' garden at WLHS. I say this not to condemn, but to warn. Good school for musicians, pastors, and teachers. Not for engineers, scientists, or serious intellectuals. Academics are focused on busy work and procedures, less on relevant projects, tests, and application as seen in higher education and real life careers. This is a good school for a child to learn submission for authority and the daily grind of life. Not as well at harnessing creativity or visionaries. It's more of a protocol based bootcamp than an academic institution.
I love WLHS - thanks for partnering with us in teaching our children. What a blessing to know they not only grow academically, but also spiritually!
Wisconsin Lutheran is a fantastic school and I sincerely believe that there is no racial tension, espeially between teachers and students. For that to be suggested on here is absurd. I'm a student and the only racism I've ever encountered at Wisco is people being accused of it. I've never once witnessed it myself. The teachers all handle themselves in a professional manner and I can't think of one teacher who would make a racist comment to any student, of any race. Fantastc school, great students, great teachers. You can definitely tell that the teachers care about the success of their students and do all they can to help them towards of their goals of high school graduation, and their long term of graduating college and starting their career. I'm very proud of my school!
I believe that the great reports that are listed here are from the majority race, because I found that being a minority even in a so called Christian school is still being treated like a inferior individual but God knows the heart of men even when they try to pretend and all will be dealt with accordingly! Treat people the way you would want to be treated, children are children black, white, hispanics and asians in God's eye they are His and they are all the same!!!
My two daughters and other children who were not of the caucasian ethnicity were treated unfairly by the staff and unprofessional racist comments were made to them by the staff on many occasions so I recently chose to withdraw my two daughters out of this school.
Wisco is the best school ever, my child loves going to school each day because of the great education and christian fellowship she receives each day. Great overall.
Awesome!!!!!! I love Wisconsin Lutheran! Everybody is so nice and I am looking foward to going their all my four years.
Excellent teachers, staff, and students! My boys love the school and are involved in extracurricular activities. Both scored high on Act and plan to attend 4 yr colleges.
I have had two children at Wisco, and i myself am an alumni. I would never send my childen any where else. Wisco's values mirror our own, and I highly recommend this school to anyone looking for an excellent high school.
My child currently attends Wisconsin Lutheran High School. The school is based upon Christian values. If you are looking for a school for your 8th grade child entering into 9th grade or if you are interested in transferring your child to a Christian prayer school, then WI Lutheran is certainly the school I would recommend. This school's administrative staff has a very low tolerance of unethical behavior. Each student in this school is expected to accept their own personal responsibility of being on time and following the school's guidelines. Parents are encouraged to get involved and you will even have access to your student's grades online. Each student share the same team spirit and the school's values of serving Christ. So if you are looking for a Christ-centered environment, WI Lutheran is a school you should consider.

She keeps this up and she will go …
Comment posted [Audio] Jennifer Hudson Explains Why She Went HAM On A Twitter Follower by starjonesinthemaking.
She keeps this up and she will go the same way that Star Jones went.
starjonesinthemaking also commented
- She can say she wears a size 0 to the cows come home, but the chick still
wear a size 8. If she wears designer clothing (which she does)
their 0 is a size 6/8 in regular retailer clothing. Designer cut their
clothes BIG! I also do not go by tag size, she has never released her
actual measurements, she seems to be very secretive about giving out
any kind of measurements of actually weight. All she does he throw
clothing size arounds in the media and that really means a whole lot of
nothing because each designer and clothing manufacturer cut their clothes
differently. Plus, she is not tone, it looks like one of her thighs
is carving in due to lost of muscle mass.
- She definitely is not a size 0.
If she puts on anything with a size 0 tag on it, its a pinkie ring
and maybe not even that. She's a size 8 and a size 6 on a very good day.
- I don't believe in the term 'superstar' that's solely
that person's perception, not everybody else's. Jennifer
or any other entertainer is no better in my book than
a person who delivers the mail. They have different
careers but are not judged for being less or more of a person
because of their career choice or the money they make.
That's why no one should be shocked with her real
personality is shown. Folks should not be so delusional,
thinking she will act a certain way or carry herself
a certain way because she makes more than someone who
carries the mail. She's just an average jane in my
opinion who just happens to sing and appeared in a few
movies. Nothing more, nothing less.
- Cause she got a nasty attitude
