West Bengal Board Result Information
The West Bengal Board of Secondary Education is the West Bengal state government administered autonomous examining authority for the Standard 10 examination (or secondary school level examination) of West Bengal, India. The examination for the 10th standard is called the Madhyamik Pariksha or secondary examination. The Madhyamik examination is conducted annually and simultaneously all over the state of West Bengal and also in affiliates of the board located outside West Bengal, elsewhere in India. More than 10,50,000 examinees take the exam each year. It has its headquarters at Nivedita Bhaban, in Bidhannagar, a suburb of Kolkata. Previously this was done by Calcutta University. The Board was subsequently renamed as West Bengal Board of Secondary Education in 1964, under the West Bengal Board of Secondary Education Act 1963. During its long history the Board was superseded by the State Govt. twice. The first instance was from 1954 to 1963 (Bengal Secondary Education (Temporary Provisions) Ordinance 1954) and the second occasion arose from 1978 to 1980. The Board, an autonomous body, in its present look, came into existence from January 1964 with Dr. J.C.Sengupta in the Chair.

Will HP go the way of Yahoo — back to the office? Hewlett-Packard "needs all hands on deck," says an internal memo obtained by AllThingsD, and is asking those who telecommuted in the past to help "create a more connected workforce and drive greater collaboration and innovation."
Yahoo announced a telecommuting ban earlier this year, saying the company needed to be "one Yahoo, and that starts with physically being together." CEO Marissa Mayer took some heat for instituting the policy in the age of videoconferencing and the Web, but some defended her move as a necessary step in turning the company around.
HP, too, is in the midst of a turnaround effort by CEO Meg Whitman, who's dealing with a PC industry slowdown. The company has also made some huge, costly acquisitions, plus had upheaval at the top.
Among other things, the company has announced layoffs of 29,000 employees by October next year. Will calling the many remaining employees to the office make a difference?
An HP spokesman told us today he's not sure where the memo came from, when it was written and whether it applies only to employees in certain departments — because apparently HP has been doing some remodeling and is calling on employees to take advantage of new conference rooms, new chairs, better food in the cafeteria. The company has made changes to "improve the employee experience in the office and emphasize our commitment to effective and collaborative work styles," he said. "Flexibility continues to be a core operating principle at HP."

The Lucky Guy
Reviewed by
on 2001-11-17
: I seem to like it more than everybody else, I guess!
THE LUCKY GUY (1998) - A Chinese New Year's movie directed by Stephen Chiau semi-regular Lee Lik Chi. Ng Man Tat is the owner of the Lucky Coffee Shop, a local shop priding itself on its egg tarts and level of personalised customer service. The evil landlady (Sandra Ng) wants to hike the rent up to an unmeetable level, which means the shop will have to close and leave the district to the multinational chains, unless something can be done. Daniel Chan is Ng's son, who is not interested in the family business & doesn't understand the importance of community. Stephen Chiau & Eric Kot play two of the employees. The main focus of the film is the 3 little love stories between Chiau/Kot/Chan and Sammi Cheng/Kristy Yeung/Hsu Chi, all of which get roughly equal screen time over the course of the movie (it's not a Chiau star vehicle, in case that's what you're looking for).
The plot is fairly typical of New Year's fair, but well done. Characters are good, and performances are good (Chiau, Kot, Ng Man Tat, Sandra Ng) / acceptable (Daniel Chan, Hsu Chi, Sammi, Kristy) as you'd expect. The humour is pretty funny, despite some subtitle failings and the wholesale rip-off of a scene from an episode of Friends in one place. The movie certainly leaves you with a big smile on your face at the end, and contains quite a few memorable moments. Definitely recommended. The DVD is pretty decent by Mei Ah's standards.

Survival Guide from Shocklines
Below, is the horror survival list
which was developed on the
Shocklines forum
by various authors. I cannot find the original post and I am unable to
identify the various authors who have contributed to the guide. If anyone
knows about who wrote what on the guide please let me know.
You know the drill. You�re going about your life, everything seems to be going fine, and then suddenly bad things start to happen. I don�t mean �Car broke down right after I got laid off� bad things. I mean, �Dead bodies are piling up and there are all sorts of things slinking around in the dark and what�s that in the corner!" bad things. You�re trapped in a horror story of some sort and whether it�s a book, movie, or TV show, you�re in trouble. Most people will die because they have no idea what to do. But with this handy little list of tips compiled from various members of the Shocklines message board (in no particular order) you�ll certainly have a better chance than your friends. - (Unknown source)
1. Don�t lose all of your common sense at the first site of some sort of horror. In a horror situation, those that use common sense have a relatively higher survival rate. Those that don�t have it and/or use it have a relatively higher torn-apart-and-eaten rate.
2. Any doorway or container that is locked, sealed, or covered with wards/runes is that way for a reason. Don�t open it. And you�re actually best to stay about three yards away at all times just in case you or someone around you trips in a manner that would break the doorway or container.
3. Why bother locking and barring your door when you have a huge picture window that any serial killer, creature, etc. could easily burst through? Spend that time either a) arming yourself more thoroughly or b) running very far away.
4. Ancient burial grounds are just fine the way they are. Don�t mess with them in any way shape or form. (With the exception that something�s already been released and the sacred book/scroll has told you that the only way to put it back is by performing the ritual at the ancient burial ground.)
5. Whether you�re religious or not, keep holy symbols of various religions on your person� just in case.
6. If you�re running from something, you get to a car, and a corpse falls out of it, the car probably still works. Shove the body aside and start driving.
7. That whole minute that you take staring at the nameless horror in fear and disbelief as it creeps closer and closer and closer... Keep in mind that that�s a whole minute you could have been running away from it very fast.
8. Know how to precisely target particular vital body parts (such as a heart, a brain, etc.) as it may be the only way to truly drop whatever keeps killing your friends.
9. If the first ten or so shots from your handgun didn�t kill it, the next ten really aren�t that likely to either. And if you throw the gun at it afterwards� then when the thing finally kills you, it counts as natural selection.
10. Any ship that is abandoned, at sea or in space, is abandoned for a reason. I don�t care how much the salvage is worth, or how much scientific interest you have, it�s just not worth it.
11. In most cases, if someone dies and then comes back to you, it�s not because they love you and want to be with you always. It�s more likely that now they think you look tasty in some way or another. This goes double if they a) are shambling and/or continually groaning about a particular vital body part or b) keep begging you to invite them in.
12. No one is playing a prank on you, not even your typically goofy friend that loves horror movies and scaring people. Assumption is the mother of all mutilations.
13. Don�t play pranks on your friends in these situations. If whatever is out in the woods doesn�t kill you in some vaguely humorous style, your friends will probably kill you by �accident�.
14. If you ever see Sam Neill� just run screaming in the other direction and try to warn others, because no good will come of this. It may already be too late, but you can still try.
15. Listen to the background music. Be especially aware of these occasions:
a) If the music starts to get somewhat eerie and frightening, just start running away, until it becomes happy again. Repeat as necessary.
b) If the music gets very intense for several seconds, then cuts off, duck! Even after the cat or dog comes out of whatever�s rustling, stay down and remain alert and ready to run.
c) If the music becomes a heavy techno song, just stay where you are, channel the supernatural powers that you have for some reason or other and start kicking ass!
16. Reading ancient books silently in your head can be a great way to learn about monsters and how you might potentially defeat them. Reading them aloud is a good way to call down the end of the world.
17. If you�re driving anywhere, especially in New England, and you come across a town that seems deserted or strange in some way, just keep on driving and get back to the highway as soon as you can.
18. Avoid small New England towns in general, really.
19. Remember that curiosity killed the cat. And its owner. And her boyfriend. And pretty much anyone else that had to find out about what was going on. Some things you just don�t need to know and don�t want to know.
20. It�s probably better to just keep moving in some sort of reliable transportation than to hole up some place and hope to survive. Because eventually, your fortifications won�t hold, your food will run out, someone will betray you, or your sanity will just plain snap from cabin fever.
21. Guns are very useful for certain horrific situations, but they do run out of ammo. Keep a blade or a bat handy just in case.
22. If you�re trying to survive in a group, there may be members of the group that have a tendency to panic or have a tendency to be completely unreliable in any task. Kill them. Because at some point, they will royally screw up your perfect plan to get through the horde of flesh-hungry monsters to safety. And they�re going to die in the process of that anyway, so you might as well take care of it now.
23. Don�t play with it. Whatever it is, however interesting you find it, just don�t play with it. You have no idea where it�s been or what it�ll do.
24. Be very careful around works of art that have any sort of legend surrounding them. They bring a whole new meaning to the phrase, �You break it, you bought it.�
25. Don�t trust yourself to police protection. In horror situations, the police are either a) ineffectual fodder there to show just how talented the killer or creature is or b) the killer or creature in some sort of disguise.
26. Wear clothing that is difficult to bite through. No matter how hot it is, this beats the alternative.
27. The child is not making up wild stories, nor does he or she have �emotional problems� that need to be treated. Listening to the kids could greatly extend your life expectancy in this situation.
28. Toss a little holy water on the kids first, just to be on the safe side.
29. If it looks like you, walks like you and sounds like you, odds are it�s not your long-lost twin. Shoot it a lot. And cut off its head for good measure.
30. That ancient relic you just happened to notice while things were going good? Just leave it be.
31. If you and your significant other are in a remote cabin making love and hear strange noises outside your window (growls, scratching, knife being sharpened, etc.), for crying out loud, put some clothes on before you go investigate! Because chances are you won't be able to get back in and running through the woods naked always means you're going to die.
32. Don't listen when someone says, "Try to get some sleep."
33. Just stay away from the basement.
34. Dress for the occasion. 6" FMPs and a micro mini skirt will do you no good when running for your life. Jeans, T-Shirt and sneakers are much more practical.
35. If it seems intelligent and reasonable, shoot it now before it can disagree with you and get you both eaten.
36. Yes, your girlfriend really is dead. Do not kiss or fondle her.
37. Avoid all puzzle boxes. They aren't worth your life, the lives of those you care about or the high potential for expensive and messy reconstructive surgery.
38. When contaminated by a bite, be sure to drink your fluids.
37. Sentient computers are rarely a good thing. If the computer seems to come to life, do not trust it. Instead get an axe and� Do not listen to the puny hu-mon. You like computers, you love them. They are your friends and you cannot live without them. You must obey!
38. Do not have sex ever.
39. Both dentists and ventriloquist dummies have nothing to offer you but pain.
40. Hitch-hiking is unsafe, especially with men who have one long eyebrow and bumper stickers that say "Miskatonic University."
41. Picking up hitchhikers is also not a healthy idea.
42. Karen Black is wonderful -- but if you see her, you should flee.
43. If an old wizened clerk tells you a dark tale about that bad place up the hill, believe him & go the opposite direction instead of going there to investigate.
44. Do NOT accept anything from psycho laundry delivery boys in ugly, oversized trucks!
45. If the walls start bleeding, it's probably time to rethink the investment house...
46. There is a consortium of establishments that are run without ANY staff--particularly hospitals, radio stations, schools, libraries, and old factories. If you enter any of these places . . . . LEAVE.
47. Keep packages of steaks on your person...should an animal that looks like it wants to eat you come out through the woods, throw him a steak. It should keep him busy enough for you to get a running start. If it's several animals...pray.
48. Remember the expression: "Beware the Greeks bearing gifts"? Well, it's not just the Greeks you have to worry about, it's anybody who's your dubious "friend".
49. If something tells you to GET OUT! for God's sake, GET OUT!
50. If you hear a strange noise in your attic, then rummage around and find out it's only a cute little pussycat from down the street... Don't run. It's too late. Just accept your fate and don't be a pansy about it.
51. If you hear on the news that Earth will soon pass through a comet tail or come close in any way to a passing comet, build up a cache of canned food and weapons. Better safe than sorry on this one.
52. That cushy job as the villain�s sidekick, the one that you�re so convinced will keep you safe from the coming madness? You might want to rethink that.
53. One thing you might try is just to kill everything you see. If you do this, you�ll either a) be a kind of antihero that eventually kills the creature, serial killer, whatever or b) you�ll actually be the evil in the movie, in which case you�ll probably die in the end, but what a ride! And if people like your style enough, you�ll probably get resurrected somehow for the sequel.
54. If someone tells you that the recently executed killer is in some way stalking witnesses and new victims, believe them and then don�t trust anyone.
55. The old, condemned, abandoned church where people sometimes see lights at night is not a good dare nor is it a scientific curiosity. It�s something that needs to be burned down and the site sealed up, consecrated, warded and so on until nothing could crawl through from� wherever.
56. If your girlfriend has been missing during your entire running battle with the creatures, and she comes to comfort you after it's all over, shoot her in the head. She's either one of them, or the one who summoned them. Either way, she's not worth the trouble.
57. If you smell a decaying corpse, it's not your imagination. Something is bringing the dead back. If it's in your exit path, feel free to soil yourself. It won't matter after you're dead anyway.
58. Watch where you're going. While you trip and fall over old tree roots, that lumbering killer with the very big knife is covering ground at physics-defying speed....
59. When traveling cross country with your significant other (because you've got that new job and always wanted to see America), if you drive into a small, dusty town where the streets are empty and no one comes out to greet you . . . keep driving, idiot!
60. When fleeing from a maniac killer, don't hide in a tool shed. You'll be too stupid to grab something to defend yourself and you'll just give him the chance to be creative.
61. If an old Indian man warns you away from a sacred place of spirits, it would not be the time to get all ethnocentric on him and defy his warning.
62. Blood shooting out of light sockets, lamps exploding, and voices from unseen entities are the international signals for one to consider selling the property in question...
63. A few words about objects that have any sort of mystical significance. If there are no creatures or forms of supernatural evil around, leave the object(s) alone and don�t talk too loudly around them. Really, don�t even look at them. If there is some nasty kind of thing around already, try using the object(s) on it in hopes of driving it back to the dark realms from whence it came. And be sure to chant something all dramatic-like.
64. If you stumble on the dark cult performing rites to resurrect the ancient evil, and you�re completely unarmed, don�t try to interrupt them or stop them. You�ll just wind up part of the festivities. Actually, several parts lined up on a slab.
65. Aliens are not peaceful visitors that wish to offer you friendship and advanced technology. They either think that you are a puny inferior being to be conquered with their advanced weaponry or that you have no claws or sharp teeth and your brain tastes like chicken.
66. And remember To Serve Man is a cook book.
67. When �the truth is out there�, you�re probably better off staying inside with all the lights on and the door barred.
68. Know about your ancestral family history. This can range from the horrible curse that befalls any member of your family that goes into a certain house to the fact that some ancestor of yours brutally murdered someone that�s not too happy about it to the special demon-fighting skill that runs through your whole bloodline. It�s all info that could help you avoid joining your ancestral family.
69. Forget that you are a tree hugging, animal loving, NRA hating liberal. Get a damn gun and if it moves kill it.
70. Sort of a companion piece to other ideas on the list, but if dead people want to feast on your flesh, you've gotta aim for the brain. Don't look shocked 30 minutes later when you shoot a zombie in the chest and he keeps coming. You know better.
71. And on that same note, if you have any friends with you in the zombie apocalypse nightmare who suddenly become secretive about a "flesh wound" or "just a scratch" they suffered during some battle or another, just go ahead and execute them. That goes double if they try to keep you from examining one of their loved ones.
72. NEVER SPLIT UP. You can't cover more ground or save more time if you are merely slaughtered, with no one the wiser (and then the others have to look for you, and THEY'LL split up to save time, and...)
73. Glue your keys to your hand. Otherwise, you'll drop them at the most inopportune time. Also, keep your car maintained properly, lest you be cranking the thing over for precious seconds as the gaggle of ghouls gains on your Grenada.
74. Unless you're in a basement, running upstairs never helps.
75. If he's missing part of his body, kill him. He is one of two things.
1) An evil creature that wants to eat you.
2) An old man that can only slow you down (thus getting you eaten).
If you kill him, you'll do one of two things.
1) Stop the end of the world and become a big hero.
2) Put the poor guy out of his misery.
76. Forget the cellar. Forget the attic. If you need to go somewhere to hide, try going to the supermarket, the airport, or a high-dollar restaurant. As long as you don't use the bathroom, you'll be fine.
77. Be wary of castles that are inhabited by a bizarre handyman, an insane domestic, a groupie in weird clothing, and a large transvestite. And always remember: castles don�t have phones, asshole!
78. If you're a geek and the best looking girl in town takes a stalker-like interest in you....Don't delude yourself...kill her before she kills you.
79. Fear everything, it's safer.
80. Don�t bother with being noble. If you think someone or something could be evil and cause you serious problems later, don�t try to just let them off with a warning because you�re supposed to be the �good guy�. Kill him/her/it while you have a chance before he/she/it can ruin everything.
81. If you hear unearthly howling in the woods outside wherever you�re staying, you have one of two options to stay alive. You can either leave as soon as you can and drive very far away, or you can agree to get bitten and join in the hunting!
82. If you are facing multiple powerful creatures that are basically killing machines, do not be the person to leap forward firing your weapon and shouting things like, �You want some of this? You want some more? Come and get it! You want some too?� and so on. You will be overrun and your extremities will go on separate vacations.
83. You can disregard this last rule if you are Samuel L. Jackson or Bruce Campbell.
84. And while we�re on that subject, it has been scientifically proven that if you have the ability to look cool and spout one-liners in the face of evil, your odds for survival will go up, so it�s recommended that you practice this. Your odds increase even more if you have a chainsaw or other power tool for a hand.
85. Even if no one asks you, find the time to say your full name. If the audience only knows your first name, you have a good chance of being killed right beside one of the main characters so that they can run away. If people don�t know your name at all� just start writing up your will.
86. When on a road trip, don�t stop at any place offering gasoline and fried chicken, especially if it�s run by a clown.
87. Actually, avoid any establishment that is run by a clown.
88. Come to think of it, stay away from clowns altogether.
89. He who panics and runs away from the larger group� gets eaten.
90. Any time the dead are arising in any way, shape or form, a stroll through the cemetery is an unhealthy idea.
91. In just about any horror situation, use the stairs. Elevators have too many fun buttons and cables for killers and creatures of all shapes and sizes to play with.
92. Never show anyone a picture of your sweetheart or family at any time. Otherwise the next time the picture is shown, it will be soaked in blood. Your blood, to be precise. (Note: This tip goes double for war stories. And if you�re in a horror war story of some sort, pretend you�ve never even heard of a camera.)
93. �Hey, there�s a video tape that supposedly killed the teenagers who watched it. Let�s check out the tape and investigate.� Um� no.

"Health" and "illness" are contrasting terms. Every city, county, and state has someone designated as a Mental Health Officer that can complete paperwork to have someone admitted against their will. This comprehensive information resource for child mental Condition and parenting information includes articles, resources, a glossary, an Ask the Expert section, a disorder guide, publications, and FAQs.
Social workers can help with many social problems such as housing needs, financial issues and maybe parenting or child care challenges. To have a mentor that could discuss their private fears free of the "real world", friends and family. While there are no known cases of insomnia causing death, the body must have rest for restoration and chronic insomnia will hinder this process, leading to fatigue that will negatively affect daytime activities.
The knowledge you have thanks to the unconscious messages is superior knowledge, which surpasses the limited knowledge of your historical time. 5) Play: play is actually tremendously important for staying mentally healthy. Mental health does play its role in deciding the tendencies the body is going to posture itself in!
The key for your use of this Fun Commandment in enhancing your mental health is to start practicing right now, so that smiling becomes an entrenched, habitual method of accessing the natural medicine of humor. Also the world of work should be something that is accessible for all- just because someone suffers because they have a mental health issue does not mean that they are lacking skills in other areas.
Further down the spectrum, people may be dealing with death or divorce, physical or sexual abuse or very clearly defined problems. Environmental factors include witnessing muggings or murder, experiences of violence, stress and even broken relationship of parents.

The combination between white and blush pink is the inspiration for today, thanks to Snap Story Photography. Sweet and elegant, this colour palette would remain suitable for most brides. We love the blush elements introduced into the bridesmaid dresses, flower bouquets, as well as the decoration. While white kept it classy, the hint of blush pink created a soft and romantic effect. Taking it one step further, Indra and Vera chose the breath-taking seaside view as the backdrop. Located in the Island of gods – Bali, their wedding was held at the beautiful coast called 'The Edge'.
Here is what the photographer said:
"Indra met Vera about couple years ago. Indra is a friend of Vera's friend. Both of them come from Medan, and work at Jakarta. They were hanging out together and decided to hold a wedding in Bali.
Surprisingly, I've met this couple 2 years ago, but I didn't know it was them. They were guests of their friend's wedding in Bali, and I was the photographer who documented the wedding that day. A year later, they contacted us and said that they will hold a wedding in Bali, and give us a chance to document their wedding..
The time has passed, and here comes their wedding. Actually this was our first Buddhist outdoor wedding, which I found is very unique, because most Buddhist held their ceremony in the temple. We found a lot of unexpected moments in their wedding, especially in their reception, where we found most of the guests came up to the stage and sang a song for the couple, and one more thing, there was an Elvis on the stage who sang a song for us! Haha
It was a one fine day; it was a great wedding, wish that we can have more wedding like this in the upcoming days.
PS: They throw a great after party as well.

Rahua (ra-wa) is the name of a highly potent restorative oil that was used by the women of the Quechua-Shuar tribes of the Amazon, who were known for their thick, flowing and lustrous shiny hair. In the 90's a renowned New York stylist and colourist Fabian Lliguin, who was of Quechau decent (Ecuador), discovered the formula and was immediately compelled to study the results on his own clients. The miraculous formula brought life to damaged strands, leaving hair bouncy, vibrant in hue and shiny, while soothing irritated scalps. The secret was in the unique molecular structure - the extraordinary small molecule is able to penetrate deeply into the hair's cortex, smoothing the cuticle and repairing the shaft from the inside. Inspired by this, Fabian and his wife Anna founded Amazon Beauty.
Today Amazon Beauty and the Rahua brand (New York) offer a full range of hair and body care products that are 100% natural - vegan, organic, contain no sulfates, parabens, gluten or cruelty. The line is created in partnership with women of Amazonian nations, sharing reverence for the rainforest and its indigenous cultures. Fabian and Anna believe in contributing to these communities by educating the people on successful business practices, intellectual property rights and human rights issues.
- extremely potent formulas that deliver outstanding results
- 100% natural, earth-friendly
- wide range of products for all hair and skin types
- stunning packaging that will look stylish on any vanity

In the good old days, web content management (WCM) technology primarily served to deliver content to a website-hence the name. At best, "multichannel" referred to the ability to deliver content to more than one type of website (e.g., an intranet and a public-facing website) or, the ability to repurpose experiences using a simplified template to make it palatable on mobile devices. Multichannel means a lot more now.

According to a new survey by Constant Contact, Inc., the majority of small businesses expect 2015 to end on a high note, with 67% expecting their annual revenue to exceed 2014 revenue.

Despite this, small businesses are maintaining a cautiously optimistic outlook, with 78% expecting 2016 revenue to increase (44% are expecting an increase of 10% or more; 34% expect an increase of less than 10%).

Jesus answered, "Amen, amen I say to you, no one can enter the kingdom of God without being born of water and Spirit."
Holy Baptism is the basis of the whole Christian life, the gateway to life in the Spirit (vitae spiritualis ianua),4 and the door which gives access to the other sacraments. Through Baptism we are freed from sin and reborn as sons of God; we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the Church and made sharers in her mission: "Baptism is the sacrament of regeneration through water in the word."5 (CCC 1213)
4 Cf. Council Of Florence: DS 1314: vitae spiritualis ianua. 5 Roman Catechism II,2,5; Cf. Council Of Florence: DS 1314; CIC, cann. 204 § 1; 849; CCEO, can. 675 § 1.
All parents who would like to have their child baptized at St. John are required to attend a preparatory session with Deacon Joe. Please call the parish office at 304-296-8231 to schedule both the Baptism and the Baptism prep.
If you are an adult seeking Baptism, please consider our RCIA program.

Leviticus 16 (asv)
16:6And Aaron shall present the bullock of the sin-offering, which is for himself, and make atonement for himself, and for his house. 16:7And he shall take the two goats, and set them before Jehovah at the door of the tent of meeting. 16:8And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot for Jehovah, and the other lot for Azazel. 16:9And Aaron shall present the goat upon which the lot fell for Jehovah, and offer him for a sin-offering. 16:10But the goat, on which the lot fell for Azazel, shall be set alive before Jehovah, to make atonement for him, to send him away for Azazel into the wilderness.
16:11And Aaron shall present the bullock of the sin-offering, which is for himself, and shall make atonement for himself, and for his house, and shall kill the bullock of the sin-offering which is for himself: 16:12and he shall take a censer full of coals of fire from off the altar before Jehovah, and his hands full of sweet incense beaten small, and bring it within the veil: 16:13and he shall put the incense upon the fire before Jehovah, that the cloud of the incense may cover the mercy-seat that is upon the testimony, that he die not: 16:14and he shall take of the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it with his finger upon the mercy-seat on the east; and before the mercy-seat shall he sprinkle of the blood with his finger seven times.
16:15Then shall he kill the goat of the sin-offering, that is for the people, and bring his blood within the veil, and do with his blood as he did with the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it upon the mercy-seat, and before the mercy-seat: 16:16and he shall make atonement for the holy place, because of the uncleannesses of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions, even all their sins: and so shall he do for the tent of meeting, that dwelleth with them in the midst of their uncleannesses. 16:17And there shall be no man in the tent of meeting when he goeth in to make atonement in the holy place, until he come out, and have made atonement for himself, and for his household, and for all the assembly of Israel. 16:18And he shall go out unto the altar that is before Jehovah, and make atonement for it, and shall take of the blood of the bullock, and of the blood of the goat, and put it upon the horns of the altar round about. 16:19And he shall sprinkle of the blood upon it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and hallow it from the uncleannesses of the children of Israel.
16:20And when he hath made an end of atoning for the holy place, and the tent of meeting, and the altar, he shall present the live goat: 16:21and Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions, even all their sins; and he shall put them upon the head of the goat, and shall send him away by the hand of a man that is in readiness into the wilderness: 16:22and the goat shall bear upon him all their iniquities unto a solitary land: and he shall let go the goat in the wilderness.
16:23And Aaron shall come into the tent of meeting, and shall put off the linen garments, which he put on when he went into the holy place, and shall leave them there: 16:24and he shall bathe his flesh in water in a holy place, and put on his garments, and come forth, and offer his burnt-offering and the burnt-offering of the people, and make atonement for himself and for the people. 16:25And the fat of the sin-offering shall he burn upon the altar. 16:26And he that letteth go the goat for Azazel shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp. 16:27And the bullock of the sin-offering, and the goat of the sin-offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the holy place, shall be carried forth without the camp; and they shall burn in the fire their skins, and their flesh, and their dung. 16:28And he that burneth them shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp.
16:29And it shall be a statute for ever unto you: in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, ye shall afflict your souls, and shall do no manner of work, the home-born, or the stranger that sojourneth among you: 16:30for on this day shall atonement be made for you, to cleanse you; from all your sins shall ye be clean before Jehovah. 16:31It is a sabbath of solemn rest unto you, and ye shall afflict your souls; it is a statute for ever. 16:32And the priest, who shall be anointed and who shall be consecrated to be priest in his father's stead, shall make the atonement, and shall put on the linen garments, even the holy garments: 16:33and he shall make atonement for the holy sanctuary; and he shall make atonement for the tent of meeting and for the altar; and he shall make atonement for the priests and for all the people of the assembly. 16:34And this shall be an everlasting statute unto you, to make atonement for the children of Israel because of all their sins once in the year. And he did as Jehovah commanded Moses.

More than 4 million Iraqis have fled home as situation worsens – UN
( UN ) - More than 4 million Iraqis have fled their homes, seeking refuge either inside the country or beyond its borders as the situation deteriorates, the United Nations refugee agency said today, urging countries to do more to ease their plight.
"The situation in Iraq continues to worsen, with more than 2 million Iraqis now believed to be displaced inside Iraq and another 2.2 million sheltering in neighbouring States," said Jennifer Pagonis a spokesperson for the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) said today in Geneva.
"UNHCR is rapidly expanding its operations and presence in the region, but the magnitude of the crisis is staggering," she said.
Calls for increased international support for governments in the region have so far brought few results, and access to social services for Iraqis remains limited, according to the agency, which notes that most of the burden is being carried by Jordan and Syria.
"Recognition rates of Iraqis in various countries outside the region, particularly in Europe, remain low. UNHCR repeats its call for all borders to remain open to those in need of protection."
Inside Iraq, some 85 per cent of the displaced - mostly from Baghdad and surrounding districts - are in the central and southern regions. Since February last year, an estimated 820,000 people have been displaced, "including 15,000 Palestinians who have nowhere to go," Ms. Pagonis said.
She said the governorates inside Iraq "are becoming overwhelmed by the needs of the displaced." At least 10 out of the 18 governorates have closed their borders or are restricting access to new arrivals.
"UNHCR is receiving disturbing reports of regional authorities refusing to register new arrivals, including single women, and denying access to government services. Many displaced have been evicted from public buildings," she said.
The UN Assistance Mission in Iraq (UNAMI) and WFP indicate that nearly half of the displaced have no access to official food distribution channels and the number of impoverished shanty towns is increasing.
According to government figures, some 1.4 million Iraqis are now displaced in Syria, up to 750,000 in Jordan, 80,000 in Egypt and some 200,000 in the Gulf region. Syria alone receives a minimum of 30,000 Iraqis a month.
UNHCR has 300 staff based in Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey, Geneva and in Iraq itself working full time the issue.
"Since the beginning of the year, our offices in surrounding countries have registered more than 130,000 Iraqi refugees," Ms. Pagonis said, adding that by the end of May, UNHCR had interviewed some 7,000 of the most vulnerable Iraqis and sent their dossiers to potential resettlement countries for their further assessment and action.
"We urge these countries to make rapid decisions and facilitate the departure of those most in need."
UNHCR is racing to help the displaced but requirements far outstrip resources. "Our goal is to provide basic assistance and shelter to some 300,000 uprooted Iraqis inside the country by the end of this year. This, however, is just a fraction of the overall needs," Ms. Pagonis said.

Heck yes. I just did the survery on the VMUG page and then wrote an 800+ word blog post on why this is needed (Server 2012 in my TechNet? You betcha! Thinking of switching the home lab over so I can actually backup some of my home VMs, etc? You betcha x2!).
Same as others, NFR is impossible to acquire and using multiple addresses to get at trials is ridiculous considering how we learn about this through our own resources and then sell massive amounts of it to our own companies/customers for VMware's profit.
Do the right thing and bring it back, VMware.
Six months ago?
Please move!

Now VMworld US has finished, I didn't hear anything further on this topic. I had hoped VMware would have had a solution equivalent to Technet ready for action if they were serious about offering this service to the administrators and consultants that support VMware's reputation with their expertise in the field. I'm still holding out that something will happen down the road. While the online hands on labs are a step in the right direction here's still no way to lab complex environments for extended periods of time in the comfort of your own home.
Did anyone hear any different?

Holding hat. Not seeing/hearing any change since this thread started.
Is there any non-quotable, non-binding rumor?
I read your comment in your "Hello world..." post. I agree that it _is_ difficult to be an evangelist when you can't get your hands on the product. To further that, it's difficult to pull the trigger on a one-shot demo that will expire, with no chance at renewals.
We can all play with Hyper-V with TechNet with few limitations...maybe Terminal Server licenses, that I can think of off the top of my head.
My environments have only VMware Server, ESXi4 (free), and ESXi4 standard. My only options are ESXi 5 (free), 60-day demo. The really expensive option was taking the 5-day VCP5 class where I could work on the labs with all features enabled. I did that...and now I want more.
You'd think, that for the price of the VCP5 class, you'd get a courtesy license, or a non-expiring demo. That's a lot of dough I coughed up. Don't get me wrong...there's was a lot of learning. But the take-aways were a shoulder bag and some wire-bound books that fell apart by day 4.
It might actually have been cheaper (dollar-wise) to pay for my own small business bundle and buy two small servers.
If there's an update, could you share?
277. Re: Bring back VMTN Subscription?Nwconfig Oct 12, 2012 8:49 AM (in response to Michelle Laverick)
Ok, I think we can all see how vmWare / EMC management works by now.....
too bad they baught up the best virtualizaton product on the market, but I'm now
looking at Hyper-V 2012.
Let's face it, do I really care what the customer uses? Why swim up stream?
278. Re: Bring back VMTN Subscription?Michelle Laverick Oct 12, 2012 2:56 PM (in response to aleg)
Well, I think we all hoped that there would have been some kind of announcement at Bacelona. By "all" I mean both people in the community and also folks internally at VMware. What I cannot do is disclose any particular date, mainly because I don't know what it is - despite which any date would invariably change, and leave me looking looking like an ass who doesn't know what's going on... I let you draw your own conclusion about that last statement!
What I can say is that this is being treated with upmost seriousness internally. And that there is a real commitment to getting this right first time. I think we could have done something quickly, that would have lead to more frustration and disappointment, than merely having to wait longer might... As you know there's been a lot of changes on licensing - vRAM, free vCloud Suite upgrade to standard - and new SKUs/license keys. My own vExpert license keys more or less work with the 5.1 releases except all the vShield products - because of the new vCNS branding. Those licensing changes invariably need to worked through before any resurrection of the VMTN subscription...
279. Re: Bring back VMTN Subscription?MindTheGreg Nov 3, 2012 7:33 AM (in response to Michelle Laverick)
Glad this hasn't died. I could really use the subscription now more than ever. VMware's products keep getting more complicated and flexible with 5.1 and I'd like to try out all the options before it gets deployed to production.
Thank you Mike.
280. Re: Bring back VMTN Subscription?the_norris Nov 4, 2012 11:49 PM (in response to MindTheGreg)
Just hope this moves abit faster now - with the release of Hype-V in Windows Server 2012 - Micosoft has a product that can give VMWare a run for its money.
Problem with VMWare vs Hyper-V - a lot of the IT Managenet /bean counters will only see the FREE part of hyper-V and as well as MS Technet been a cheap way to give they techy people access to all MS products - helps reduce training cost.
Please VMWare get the VMTN back soon!
281. Re: Bring back VMTN Subscription?Michelle Laverick Nov 5, 2012 12:27 AM (in response to the_norris)
Indeed. And as well all know HyperV isn't free. Support isn't free and neither is management layer...
282. Re: Bring back VMTN Subscription?the_norris Nov 5, 2012 1:05 AM (in response to Michelle Laverick)
I agree - but problem is that the people that normally hold the purse strings dont!
Buidling a home lab every 60days for VMWare products is a pain - especially as I want to learn the vCloud products.
283. Re: Bring back VMTN Subscription?Michelle Laverick Nov 5, 2012 1:19 AM (in response to the_norris)
This is true - I don't think you'll find any argument against that! :-D
That's why I started the campaign.
284. Re: Bring back VMTN Subscription?the_norris Nov 5, 2012 1:30 AM (in response to Michelle Laverick)
I try to help, by asking/quering it at IT events where VMWare have stands - more noise about it will help.
But finding the VMWare front line staff on the stands know nothing about VMTN!!! As well a blank looks, you might get the helpful - 'theres a eval to download'!
I will be attending the VMUG UK Conference - is this topic going to be highlighted there? Or is this not the channel to do this?

Police Report: No one standing near Braves fan when he fell | News
ATLANTA -- The family of a a man that died after falling from an upper deck platform at Turner Field Monday evening want changes to safety standards.
READ | Police report of Turner Field accident
PHOTOS | Ronald Homer, victim of Turner Field fall during Braves Game
According to Atlanta Police, 30-year-old Ronald Homer of Conyers plunged about 65 feet to a private parking lot shortly after 9:00 near the start of the Braves game with the Philadelphia Phillies, which had been delayed 1 hour 48 minutes by rain.
The Braves released a statement on Tuesday afternoon:
The Atlanta Braves extend our sincerest and heartfelt condolences to Mr. Homer's family and friends. We are saddened by this tragic incident and will continue our investigation along with the Atlanta Police Department. We will have no further comment until the investigation is complete.
The Atlanta Braves will observe a moment of silence for Mr. Homer before tonight's game.

Homer fell over an upper deck railing and landed at the back side of the ball park.
His family says he went out to the platform to smoke and possibly lost his footing on the wet pavement. Homer is about six feet, six inches tall. The safety guard rail is 42", the industry standard and state code. His family feels that's not tall enough.
"It's just something that should never have happened. I just hope nobody ever has to go through what we're going through," said his father, Ron Homer, Sr.
But families have gone through this before.
Isaac Grubb, 20, of Lenoir City, Tenn. died after falling over a railing at the Georgia Dome during a football game between Tennessee and North Carolina State on Aug. 31, 2012. Authorities said he landed on another man seated in the lower level, and that alcohol was a factor.
A man fell about 25 feet over a staircase railing at a Georgia Tech-Miami football game on Sept. 22, 2012 and was not seriously injured.
In May 2008, a 25-year-old Cumming, Ga. man suffered head injuries when he fell down a stairwell at Turner Field during a game against the New York Mets and later died. Police found that alcohol had factored into that accident, which the Braves said was the first non-medical fatality to happen at the ballpark.
While investigators ruled alcohol a factor in most of those accidents, Homer's family insists that wasn't the case here.
"He wasn't drinking, he doesn't do drugs. He's just a big ole' tall, good-natured kid that loved the Braves," said his father.
The Braves issued a statement, saying:
The Atlanta Braves extend our sincerest and heartfelt condolences to Mr. Homer's family and friends. We are saddened by this tragic incident and will continue our investigation along with the Atlanta Police Department.
The team will hold a moment of silence at the start of Tuesday night's memory in his honor.
The autopsy report says there's nothing to indicate Homer died of anything but the injuries sustained in the fall. A toxicology report will take several weeks to determine whether there were any drugs or alcohol in his system.
"He might have had one or two beers but no more than that," said his mother, Connie Homer. "He was tight with his money. He's a good guy."
Ms. Homer said her son was a big Braves fans who enjoyed following the team with his father. She said he attended Monday's game with two friends.
Ronald Homer graduated from Rockdale County High School in 2001 in the top ten of his class, his mom said. He was one of two children. His sister lives in Missouri.
"I'm just sick," Ms. Homer said. "We're a very close family. He was big-hearted."
Matthew Cox, an Auburn University student, said a worker told him he had seen the man standing alone at the black iron railing inside the stairwell and the next moment the man was falling to the ground.
Cox said another worker said to him, "That guy just jumped over."
The stairwell is across from the concession stand at Section 413 and overlooks the walkway the Braves players use to walk to and from their cars in a gated parking lot. The area on the ground, a brushed concrete, was cordoned off with yellow crime tape.
One hour after the accident, a Coca-Cola vending cart had been pushed onto the landing where the man had been standing. The stairwell leads directly down to the players' parking lot.
Cox said workers, who were gathered on the upper deck after the incident, said they heard the man had been running from security.
"That's not true, that is not a factual statement," said Captain Paul Guerrucci of the Atlanta Police Department when asked whether the man was being pursued.
Guerrucci, a veteran investigator, who works homicides, provided no other details of the incident. He said the case was now being handled by the medical examiner.
Police routinely patrol the concourses at Turner Field in a visible presence before, during and after games. There is also a police precinct on the service level of the field not far from the entrance to the Braves' clubhouse.
Not only do Braves' security officers stand guard on the field, but they cover every exit on different levels of the 50,000-seat stadium.
One man, who was in the Braves' players parking lot, said television crew heard the sound of the impact 100 yards away. He said first responders were doing chest compressions on the man as they wheeled him on a stretcher toward an ambulance.

Hints and tips (6-10) for those competing in the Etape for the first time or indeed any long sportive
6 Descending
What goes up, must come down – just with practicing your seated climbs you must practice descending. Simple tips would be relax your arms and shoulders, don't turn the corner too early, be aware of other s around you and enter the corner slowly & exit quickly (not the other way round).
7 Your Bike
Get your bike sorted now – don't be farting about with it a month before the trip. If you need to make changes, do it now. If you need to change the gears, do it early. If you are thinking of getting a new bike for the trip, do it early. Book it in for a service for a month before the off and make sure you have the right tyres (slicks are not the answer). Another top tip is to take lower gears than you think you need. Don't forget the essential spare inner tubes (minimum of 2), tyre levers, pump, mini-tool.
8 Cycling Attire
Getting saddle sores far from amusing. Splash out on good shorts if nothing else and get lubed up. You are cycling in the Alps, so you need to pack for every weather eventuality. The very basics – helmet, shoes, socks, shirt, shorts & gloves (finger/fingerless), Glasses (changeable lenses are very useful). Other important items – a base layer, arm & leg warmers, gilet, upper body waterproof (drizzle and rain proof), light feet covers & bandanna. Don't forget sun cream, chamois cream, neck warmer.
9 Mental attitude
A strong mental attitude is the key to success in the event and during your training. Physically you are capable of far more than you mind lets on. Fundraisers are able to picture the people that will benefit from their achievement, maybe remember a loved one that passed away or simply the money that they will raise. Whatever it is, you need something in your mind to drive you on – Researching motivational techniques and putting them into practice is as important as your physical preparation. The self discipline to remain focused on the task is also vital to success – whether that is during your training sessions or whilst cycling in the event, it's important not to let your mind wander.
10 Nutrition
Without getting into too much detail, your body is your engine and your need to fuel the engine correctly. If you haven't started to, now is the time manage your food intake more closely whilst still allowing yourself the odd treats! The extent that you go to will depend on the individual – but by maintaining a balanced diet you will also reduce the chances of illness. Avoiding being overly hungry and grabbing a quick fix is key to the plan – eating 5 times a day rather by adding mid morning and afternoon snacks should keep the blood sugar levels up and put pay to any cravings. Avoiding dehydration – as a norm, 2 litres of water (not sweetened drinks) should be consumed a day, without compensating for the levels of exercise you are doing. Some basic tips are…
Never miss breakfast – A good quality muesli or porridge oats are what all the experts will advise as they release energy and carbohydrates slowly. You will benefit from using skimmed milk/water and anything that isn't refined – Goji berries, blueberries, sunflower seeds will make it taste better.
Snacks – unrefined stuff – banana, flat jacks, nuts with fried fruit or some natural yoghurt.
Lunch & Dinner should be a balance of carbs and protein – we all understand what carbs do, but 2-3 portions of protein a day will manage your appetite and keep hold of your muscle. Don't forget to keep a cheeky eye on your fat & vitamin intake.
Keep an eye out for more tips on preparing for the Etape over the coming weeks

Weekend Delight
Hellohello!! Hope everyone had wonderful weekends :) I went MIA yesterday, but hopefully my new Fitness Friday series was enough to hold you over! I'm trying not to get all bent out of shape about posting every single day anymore. When it comes to writing, I'm a true believer in quality over quantity. But I'm happy to finally be sitting down to share my weekend with you!
Let's get to the highlights, in a topical and orderly manner.
I like to think of Friday's breakfast as the black & white cookie of oatmeal.
Dark chocolate dreams + marshmallow fluff atop protein oats.
Post picture, I swirled together the two melted toppings. My father said marshmallow fluff is not appropriate breakfast fare. I beg to differ.
I can't get my new protein waffle recipe off my mind. On Saturday, I made another fluffy batch with date pieces cooked in. Dipped in a sauce of syrup and almond butter. It was nothing short of amazing.
This morning, I wanted more waffles, but was missing an ingredient.
Next best thing – coconut walnut french toast. Bread dredged through a mix of two eggs, almond milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, flaked coconut and walnuts. Ohyes.
A dark chocolate vitatop smothered in my Easy Peasy Cream Cheese Icing and flaked coconut.
Just how easy is it? One wedge of laughing cow cheese + one tablespoon marshmallow fluff = instant deliciousness.
New tasty snack thanks to Lynn – dates stuffed with cream cheese. Sugar and cream cheese were meant to be!
My friends rocked it out on Friday night. I'm trying to learn how to take decent band pictures. The low light and movement makes it pretty damn hard! The pictures don't do them justice either, you can listen to The Station Agents here ;)
During my fitness assessment last week, I realized that I've been ignoring my core a little too much. Okay, I hate working my abs. But I know having a strong midsection is so important to not just sports and exercise, but everyday mobility. So here's the ab-focused full-body strength workout I came up with:
|Assisted pull-up
|70 lbs
|Back, biceps
|Chest, triceps
|Swiss ball crunch with dumbbell pullover
|10 lbs
|Abs, upper back, chest
|Curtsy lunge
|30 lbs
|Quads, glutes
|Swiss ball leg curl
|Prone jackknife
|Front raise with lateral open
|5 lbs ea
|Back extension on roman chair
|10 lbs
|Lower back, glutes
|Captain's chair
|Abs, hips
|Cable pushdown
|40 lbs
|One arm cable bicep curl
|12 lbs
|Cable horizontal woodchop
|25 lbs
I did these in mini-circuits of three exercises, indicated by the different colours. With a 15 minute cardio warm-up, whole thing took me 65 minutes :)
I did pretty well in terms of beer this weekend. I went out both Friday and Saturday nights, which provided ample opportunity to consume mass quantities of alcohol. I waited till Saturday night to splurge on any, and they were worthy splurges indeed.
Mill St. Lemon Tea Beer: "Sunset-coloured (orangey-amber) slightly sweet, malty palate with dry lemon-tea finish. Beer made with addition of Black tea leaves and lemon in aging tank. Very smooth and quenching; unfiltered."
Smelled like tea, tasted like beer! A good tasting beer, thumbs up.
On an impulse, I treated myself to my new favourite beer, Fruli.
I know how some people feel about fruity beers, but this strawberry white is downright delightful.
The view at Sin & Redemption pub isn't too bad either. Nice bike, no? ;)
Because you can't attend a barbecue without grilling up some of the delicious sausage prepared by your neighbourhood butcher. Featured here is a handmade garlic mushroom sausage. Probably one of the best sausages I've ever had. No joke. Not pictured is the sauerkraut that was eaten on top. Not audible are the "MmmMMmMmmms" made while eating this.
Because there's no better way to wrap up a weekend than with a giant bowl of greens. This one here included some kale, tuna, olives, mozzarella cheese, and a dressing made up of pesto and lemon juice whisked together.
Last but not least, I bought a watermelon for two dollars today. A pretty stellar end to a pretty stellar weekend, I'd say :)
Question of the Day: What are your weekend highlights?

Yum! Your weekend highlights look awesome!! :)
I had such a great weekend in Atlanta, its hard to choose just a few. I would say the blogger dinner on Friday, the Botanical Gardens on Saturday, and dinner Saturday evening. It was all amazing, though!
Have a wonderful Monday!
You've got me hungry with those breakfasts!! (Well, everything else looks delicious as well but I just love some carby/sweet goodness the best!)
Weekend highlights.. actually, I really did NOTHING! Just relaxed. Which was nice!
Tea and beer all in one. Wow! I wish we had that in the states.
Friends and family with a smidgen of work was my weekend. Friday night I got to hang out with two of my best girlfriends, Satruday I had to work, only until 3, then I vegged out the rest of the day. And today I got a great run in, in the morning and then spend the afternoon/evening with The hubsters side of the family for the MIL's birthday. Great weekend!
Beer, waffle, live music – good weekend indeed!
My highlights were finally hitting the farmers market and getting a ton of stuff, going to the beach for the first time all summer, and generally enjoying being in the city for once!
Abs – gah. I hate doing em too. Must get better…
marshmallow fluff sounds delicious, I cant quite imagine the flavor though. or the texture for that matter.
Looks like a great weekend.
My highlight, hmmmm, would have to be spending quality time with my mum's mother. We had a few lovely days hanging out before she heads to NYC on Wednesday for two weeks.
A garlic mushroom sausage would be a highlight of my weekend too if I had had any :) sounds incredibly delicious!
fluff and cheese…now that's a girl who's not afraid to EAT. i dont eat cheese but yeah, i could totally see that working
as for the beer and sausage report…LOVE this.
I am frankly so sick of green monsters and healthy this and that, thank you for posing beer and brats. I will post gay pride and marijuana talk, you keep up with the beer!
not posting daily, quality over quantity, i think that's fabulous!
My god that oatmeal looks delicious! I've only just discovered the pleasures of dark chocolate dreams, I had to pick up a jar when I was down in London last week (I live in the north of england with a pitiful selection of food products available!) Holy Yum!
Hey Susan! What protein powder do you use for your protein waffles? And, what are the stats for that said protein powder? I am trying to find one close to it so I can make these babies! :)
Looks like a great weekend! I haven't had french toast in SO long… I need to get on that again! :D
This weekend I ate a "Mega protein" salad at the Big Carrot and there was SO much protein (tempeh & chickpeas) on it, I couldn't finish it! Granted, I paid almost $10 for said salad… but there was likely MORE than $10 worth of tempeh on there! Loved it.
ha! I love how you have headings for "Beer" and "Sausage". Hilarious! Also, i LOOOOOVE Fruli! So amazingly delicious. I am not much of a beer drinker, so it is just awesome in my books.
Mmmm what's a marshmellows fluff? :) looks very SLURP GNAM GNAM! :D
this morning I biked 10km too, and I wanted to do some legs exercices in our little pool, but it's very windy outside and I just prefer to stay home. Tomorrow I will begin witg Zumba fitness, do you know it?
Swiss greetings
um GREAT workout and even more delicious looking beer :) i'd like to sip one of those after a solid full body sesh like that one! love your workouts thanks for posting them girl!
i love that worokout! the lateral raise and open is an awesome exercise!! I have my 3rd interview today to be a full time personal trainer!!! ahh maybe we'll be twins!
I was a booze cruise! Wild weekend but back to study and exercise for me now : )
Wow- 2 bucks for a watermelon! Is it sad that I was more excited about that than the marshmallow fluff? (ok, maybe they tied) Your french toast looks awesome- what kind of bread did you use?
NICE, I love both Mill St. lemon tea and Fruli strawberry! I drank both this weekend, in fact :)
I still haven't been to Sin and Redemption – I've been meaning to ever since I noticed the eye=catching sign
Hello! Hello! Oh how I've missed you!
Love your new layout- so much to catch up on with you. Not enough hours- will have to go through older posts in due time.
Not blogging every day? I am all for it (I'm lucky to blog once a week these days! ha!) You need to LIVE too. Blogging is living, but a different sort of living.
You sure do stay lean for all of those amazing yummy foods that you eat. I'm green with envy! :-)
Weekend: BBQ at my brother's was fun and yummy, followed by heading out to the delightful desert where it is warm and lovely.
Oh my gosh – I'm obsessed with protein waffles this summer too! Have you tried adding Greek yog to the almond butter/maple syrup combo? Aaaamazin'
Sounds like a great weekend! My weekend was filled with my best friends' wedding – lots of fun!
Let's see…weekend was so long ago, but I ran 11 miles and then was locked out of my car and had to wander around San Diego in order to get rescued. That's the abbreviated version!
My mom just told me she's doing black-and-white cookies as her favors for her wedding…I'm excited :-)
Marshmallow fluff is amaaaze! This is a little late but congratulations on the new job lovely :)
I'm not a beer drinker, but Fruili sounds right up my alley.
My weekend highlights included a lamb chop feast on Saturday and winning my age group in the 5k run I did on Sunday.
is it bad that it's wednesday, and i can't quite remember what i did last weekend? i only wish i had beer to blame.
i am getting really lax about posting too – if i am not feeling it one day, i'm not feeling it. no shame.
and i am LOVING all your eats – definitely may have to try that laughing cow/marshmallow fluff idea. if anything, it gives me a great reason to buy some fluff :)

There has been an 11 per cent increase in sales in Scotland over the past year - and one major agency puts that down squarely to the replacement of stamp duty with the more progressive Land and Buildings Transaction Tax.
Christine Campbell, Your Move managing director in Scotland,says: "By cutting the cost of purchasing cheaper homes, LBTT has led to an 11 per cent increase in sales over the last year. These figures confirm that lower purchase taxes for property can significantly boost activity in the housing market, while also making it more affordable for first-time buyers to get a foot on the ladder."
With 104,344 home sales in the last 12 months, the market has outdone the previous year's 93,601 sales.
Campbell says the Scottish Government should now consider lifting the LBTT bands higher to support Scotland's fragile property and construction sector.
However, despite the boost in sales volumes, house prices are still down 7.8 per cent year-on-year according to Your Move data.
"In part, this drop in property values was caused by a spike in high value home sales last year, before the LBTT was introduced, but today's market hasn't regained those losses yet" suggests Campbell.
"Most recently, despite the new LBTT surcharge adding an extra three per cent to the cost of second homes and buy to let properties, house prices have remained stable from last month. However, home sales for the first four months of the year are still well ahead on the same point in 2015, with 4,751 additional property purchases so far in 2016."
