Daniele De Rossi has hit out at young players who spend more time on Instagram than on their careers.
The Roma legend, 33, is at the tail-end of his career after 16 years in the Italian capital and making over 500 appearances.
But De Rossi has said watching the youth of today on their phones in the dressing room makes him want to hit them with a baseball bat.
Speaking to Undici, he said: "When we started out, it was all different, that was 20 years ago.
"Now a 20-year-old will get into the first team and have more Instagram followers than [Lionel] Messi.
"When I was young, the older players would say, "It wasn't like in my day" – that's life and it always will be.
"Mind you, some of them irritate me too. When I see them do live Instagram videos from inside the locker room before a game, I'd like to take a baseball bat to their teeth.
"But they're 18 years old and in 20 years' time they will find themselves complaining about the youth of today."
De Rossi has become a club legend along with Francesco Totti after rejecting moves away from Roma.
But the Italian international has admitted he regrets not trying out a different league with Chelsea interested in him in the past.
He said: "My only regret about staying at Roma is that I never got to experience the atmosphere in other countries, such as in England or Spain, outside the stadiums.
"I would have liked to know how to live elsewhere."

text: WHAT PSYCHOLOGIST SAID ABOUT FANGIRLS (KPOP): "Don't underestimate those children who chase after Korean celebrities, their hearts are purer than anyone else, they love courageously, they will want to try their best to tackle difficult obstacles, the language and cultural barriers. They symbolise peace, they don't discriminate based on race, they befriend people with the same... interest from different countries, they're more passionate and warm than anyone else. They don't betray the ones they like easily, they are persistent and don't give up easily. They are stronger than anyone else on the inside, because when they are loving these Korean stars, they experience the setbacks they've never experienced in life. They are all sensitive children, easily touched to tears for a long time because of one incident.Through investigation, most of them understand gratitude. Their way of thinking is different from others, they don't easily get carried away by love, they don't harbour thoughts of doing bad things, and their criteria when looking for a partner is very high, other than looks, personality is more important, so the rate of marriage isn't high, but neither is the rate of divorce.Their memory is very good, they can easily remember the korean lyrics they don't understand, and their coordination skills are also very strong. Most of them are cheerful children, not the kind who keep to themselves. Their will of determination is also very strong, they are able to persevere all the way just to buy something related to the celebrity they like. In short, the way these children think is vastly different from others, and their thoughts are not easy to understand. Generally, only those who have similar interests are able to enter their world."

Laws are different from state to state on the use of digital equipment on the dashboard of a car, according to the Consumer Electronics Association. Video screens are banned by law from the dashboard in many states.
Many states have restrictions on the types of digital devices that can be within a driver's range of sight in the front seat, notes the Consumer Electronics Association. In spite of the restrictions, many car manufacturers are outfitting new car dashboards with much more advanced digital technology than in years past, shares Engineering and Technology magazine. However, many of the dashboard electronics installations are specifically designed to take safety into account.

Hi lovely ladies!
I come baring a gadget that will transform the way in which we cleanse our pretty faces! I have no doubt that any of you haven't already heard about the Clarisonic. I recently visited my local Boots store to pick up the Clarisonic Mia 2!
According to their website the Clarisonic Mia 2 "uses a patented sonic frequency of more than 300 movements per second to clean, soften and smooth skin. In just 60 seconds, the action removes more makeup and more dirt and sebum than cleansing with your hands alone. Removing more dirt and sebum from your pores also helps prepare for a better skin care regime. Benefits & features highlights: - Removes more makeup than manual cleansing"
It does this about 10 times over I cannot stress! As a lover of makeup, trust me I love piling it on, but there is no better feeling then taking it off to reveal fresh clean skin. I have problems with breakouts and my skin can become quite sensitive, so I was a bit sceptical at first as to how bad I would break out, as it is such a deep cleanse.
I usually start removing my makeup with coconut oil - yes its a must! This removes and breaks down the main layer of makeup, then wash with water. Next I use Clinique Facial Soap with the Clarisonic to clean my skin deep down.
It says that its best to wet the brush head before adding your choice of cleanser. I also dampen by face a little just to help with the lather. Then your ready to go!
I have only really been using the first speed setting, as I'm still getting used to it and don't want to irritate my skin. Starting at your chin, brush in circular motion around that area for 20 seconds, then your forehead for 20 seconds, and then both cheeks for 10 seconds.
I then like to use it on my neck - as I do bronze and blend my makeup down there. I just repeat the process above moving down my neck. Look at the brush head! All I'm going to say is.. you think you've removed everything - THINK AGAIN!
I then dry my face and continue my skincare routine as normal.
All Mia 2 Clarisonics come with a sensitive brush head - But there are plenty to choose from here. They recommend to change your brush head every 3 months.
Overall, I can honestly say that my face has never looked so healthy! Yes, don't get me wrong I still get the odd breakout, but with this it seems that they are not as red and blotchy as they used to be, and clear in less time! My skin looks smooth, clear, even more tanned!!
The Clarisonic range is Available at Boots, Debenhams & Feel Unique RRP £129

Ambush Sniper
by Special Ops Paintball on Mar 28, 2009
Like an alligator silently cruising his domain, the sniper slips into ambush position then waits. Some snipers push the envelope of paintball ballistics to fire off long, aimed shots. Others use superior camo and stealth to take targets up close and personal.
In either case, the paintball sniper turns fieldcraft and marksmanship to his advantage. While others attempt to power their way across the field, the sniper outplays the opposition on the strength of his wits. Patience is a minimum requirement and practice is a must.
Even the term "sniper" is controversial among woodsballers. Some claim that, since paintball guns have no real long-range potential, that a paintball sniper is a contradiction in terms. Paintball snipers know, however, that it takes much more than long shots to call yourself a sniper. Victory on the field comes in the wake of stealth and mental discipline—attributes that non-snipers know little about.
Tips for Snipers
* Your gearkit needs to be tuned for just one thing: stealth and concealment. If you can't make one-shot kills consistently at thirty yards, you've got no business being a sniper. So, you can get away with carrying very little paint and few other pieces of gear. A ghillie suit is a great idea and you'll probably need at least a partial ghillie before you can call yourself an expert sniper.
* You'll need an ultra-light sniping gun. Heavy guns make it too hard to low-crawl so you will want to stay away from the heavier guns. Remember, you won't be taking a lot of super long shots. Rather, you're an ace at one-shot kills within the normal range of paintballs (thirty to fifty yards.)
* Again, paintball snipers don't take very long shots because paintball guns don't shoot very far (regardless of your barrel, gun, etc..) Paintball sniping is the art of ambush, concealment and stealthy movement. You take few shots and you do it from a hidden position.
* Every time you get taken out, take a few minutes to figure out why. Pick apart the situation and determine how your cover was blown. Then, figure out what you can do in the same situation next time to stay alive. If you're having trouble figuring it out, go ask your Squad or Team Commander what he thinks you should've done differently.
* When a sniper moves, a sniper can easily be seen. Unless you're pulling a slow, flanking low-crawl, you need to stay absolutely motionless on ambush. The human eye picks up even the slightest movement. You must have the patience and discipline to stay stock-still, even when you're bored.
* Here are the keys to precision paintball shooting (in this order!)
1. Use a sight or scope. Nothing will give you more accuracy on first-shot kills than a decent sight or scope. No barrel comes close to giving that kind of advantage. As a Sniper, "instinct shooting" or "walking the shot in" are not an option. Buy a sight and practice with it often.
2. Buy premium paint. Paint quality makes a big difference to a sharpshooter. Save money by shooting less and plough those savings into the best paint you can find.
3. Become a master of estimating range. All paintballs arc drastically over distance and that makes range estimation one of the keys to one-shot accuracy. Buy a range finder and practice guessing ranges between sixty and twenty yards. You can even find small range finders that can mount to a paintball gun (they're made for bow hunting and they will add a little weight to your gun.) Learn your gun's drop at 280 fps (or at your field's maximum fps) and hold over to get your shot to drop right into target. Click here for a more complete discussion of range estimation and hold.
4. Keep your barrel impeccably clean. Carry a squeegee and a swab and if you break a ball, clean the barrel until it's spotlessly clean. Even a small amount of moisture in your barrel will blow your accuracy all to hell.
5. Use compressed air (nitro) instead of CO2. This sucks because CO2 can be used in lighter packages than air. However, air is way, way more consistent than CO2 and it's worth it to shoot air, even if you have to carry your air tank remote on your hip (recommended.)
6. Dial your gun in to EXACTLY your field maximum fps. The faster you shoot, the flatter your shots will be. Flatter shots equal more accurate, longer shots. Set your range estimation, your sights and your drop estimates to this maximum fps.
7. Build up a light paintball gun. A light gun will be easier to aim and easier to tote around the field on your belly. Think hard before you add heavy accessories to your paintgun.
8. Buy a good barrel. Okay, fine. We know you want to do it, so buy a fourteen to eighteen-inch barrel. Tests do show that barrels over fourteen-inches long out-perform shorter barrels. Click here to check out a great test matching premium paint and barrels.
9. Practice. Practice A LOT. This should be number one on this list, but we thought you'd probably already know it.
* We love the Tippmann Flatline barrel, but we don't recommend it for Snipers. If you've ever seen a ping-pong player put backspin on a ping-pong ball, then you understand how the Flatline works. The barrel is roughened and curved and this causes the paintball to pick up backspin as it speeds out the barrel. Backspin, in turn, causes the paintball to "float" noticeably further than a paintball from any other barrel. But there are prices to pay for all that distance (other than the cost of the Flatline barrel.) Each paintball is slightly different, so the Flatline affects each 'ball just a little differently than the last ball. That translates into decreased consistency and decreased accuracy. Standard paintball barrels put the paintball in the same place with greater frequency than the Flatline. Also, the Flatline's roughened interior surface is slightly more apt to shred weak paintballs than smooth-bore barrels.
Field Tactics for Snipers
* You have three basic choices of sniper style: Ambush Sniper, Ghost Flanker and Longbow Sniper. Each style utilizes different tactics:
Ambush Sniper
* When the team plan is to reduce enemy numbers before launching the main assault, you must put up an ambush-style defense. The objective of the ambush-style "D" is to suck the enemy in where they can be methodically wiped out.
* A good ambush defense is more about where you leave gaps then it is about where you position your defense. If you leave one side completely open, for example, the enemy is likely to fill into that side.
* Since the main assault is waiting to reduce the enemy numbers before attacking, you should have a ton of extra players to place in ambush positions. Decide where your gaps will be and place your defenders in a wide "U" shape to encircle the op-force attack elements. Make sure the gap is wide enough for the entire attack squad to fit inside. Otherwise, they will make contact with the tops of your "U" too soon and simply bog down trading shots. Often during capture the flag games, the "U" shape will span the entire field—giving the attackers a huge gap to fill in.
* It's often a good idea to bury the legs of your ambush along the deep side boundaries of your half of the field or along natural boundaries. Then, when the attackers fill into the middle, your side players can collapse on them and gain target-rich, side-door angles.
* Ambush D is all about patience and holding your fire until they are in your trap. If you shoot too soon, they will bunker up way before wandering into the kill zone. Unlike a survival-style defense, you want to wait to shoot until you have lethal range.
* The Ambush Sniper should conceal himself on the very tips of the "U" formation, where his concealment gives the trap its greatest chance of success.
* However, the Sniper must wait patiently, if at all possible, for the entire op-force to enter the trap before picking off players. If the Sniper springs the trap too early, then the enemy attack force will hold up outside of the perimeter and concentrate its efforts on eliminating the Sniper (which is easy to do when the Sniper is alone on the tip of a formation.)
* Any time, in fact, that a Sniper is on ambush, he should wait until the op-force is on its way out of his kill zone. By waiting, the Sniper will have easy shots on the tail end of the attack element and he will have the option of rolling in from behind the enemy. Being fired on from behind is very unusual in paintball and it will thoroughly confuse the enemy—giving the Sniper a prolonged opportunity to execute the entire op-force.
* When the team plays a "survival-style defense," the Ambush Sniper's job is very similar to an ambush-style defense. A survival-style defense is constructed to hold the enemy off for as long as possible. This gives your assault force the maximum possible time to hit the enemy flag base, take the flag and back-door anyone who's hitting your defense. In a survival-style defense, you will keep back the MINIMUM number of defenders that you possibly can and still hold your flag for the entire game time (but just barely.) By keeping only the bare minimum, you free up as many men as possible to hit the opposition's flag. By strengthening the attack force, you speed the end of the game. If the game ends and you still have a big posse of defenders, then you probably held back too many.
* On a survival-style defense, the Sniper ranges out and away from the main area of attack (that usually comes from the center and center-sides.) One of the best natural hides for the Sniper is along the deep sides of the field, around mid-field. From this position, the Sniper can slide behind an attack force without fearing that someone has gotten behind the Sniper. Often, the Sniper buries himself and the Defensive Squad Leader will call him up via radio when the enemy have filled in around the flag and the trap is ready to be sprung.
* The Sniper's side should always be the side that your friendly attack force did not move up. If you fill in behind your attackers, the chances of you seeing any enemy are very slim. Rather, conceal yourself on the weak side of the field so that the odds of an enemy encounter are higher.
* Don't forget to cover the back routes to your flag. A smart opponent will send attackers around to encircle your flag base from behind. If that happens, you're toast. A Sniper might wish to place himself in a position to interdict a flanking maneuver around his flag. Still, the Sniper should wait until the op-force has passed before making his attack.
* If you fire on enemy and they dig in and stop, sneak or belly crawl away, back toward your flag, unseen by the attackers. They will spend precious minutes trying to figure out if you're still where they saw you last. You can then slide to another ambush location and reset yourself.
Ghost Flanker
* Once your squad has the enemy position engaged and trading fire, the flanking elements are released to one or both sides. To flank, move cross-ways to the enemy and push a little up-field. The idea is to get angles on the side of the enemy shooters. When you begin to pummel them from the side, and your squad's hitting them from the front, you will have them in a cross fire and they will need to retreat or be eliminated.
* A Ghost Flanker spends a lot of the game flat on his belly. Creeping into flanking position is extremely effective since most woodsballTM fields provide plenty of low ground cover. Also, nobody expects a belly crawl in paintball, since paintballers are typically too lazy to get their cammies dirty.
* A very low, slow crawl will get you shooting angles that any other player could only dream of. Practice a slow, quiet creep until you're virtually invisible to observers.
* Beware of other elements of the enemy force. You may be flanking right into another piece of the op-force. If you do encounter more resistance, radio your Squad Leader and have him dispatch another Medium or Heavy Rifleman to set another base of fire in front of the extended force. Then, begin a new flanking move.
* Remember, if your guys and theirs' are trading fire, you can use the noise as cover. Also, you have the security of knowing that the shooters, at least, are totally focused on their little firefight. You can probably creep quickly without them noticing. Paintballers usually scoot to a firefight like moths to a flame. A fully engulfed firefight will draw attention and should give you a clear crawl into side-door position.
* Look for chances to creep all the way around back of the enemy's flag base. Sometimes, this will require that you pass up on kill shots. Getting in behind the flag is worth it. Think hard before you take gravy shots at enemy players. Achieving a superior position on the flag is often more valuable than one or two kills.
Longbow Sniper
* Again, there is no huge ballistic advantage from one paintball gun to another. If there were, we'd sell you that super-long-shooting gun. Anyone who tells you that longer barrels, etc. make your paintball gun shoot like a sniper rifle are dreaming. Longer barrels can give you slight advantages. With that said, the Longbow Sniper makes the most out of any ballistic advantage he can wring out of his gun.
* Firing from a tower or high hillside, the Longbow can extend his ballistic advantage to make long hits. Concealment isn't as great a priority for the Longbow, since connecting on long shots requires more tries and makes more noise. It's just harder to hide as a Longbow Sniper.
* Longbow is a good alternate position for a Commander since it gives him a commanding view of the field without the requirements of silence (the Commander needs to talk to his team.)
* The Longbow should carry more paint and air than the other snipers since he'll need shot volume to make up for the distances he's shooting. No matter how good you are at shooting, long shots are still very hard in paintball. There's nothing you can do to completely remove some of the variables in long shooting: wind, paint shell imperfections, inexact distance estimations, etc..
Ideal Attributes for Sniper
* Patient and Disciplined. Few paintballers have the will or the patience to play Sniper. Some games, the Sniper won't see an enemy player. Other games, he'll need nerves of steel to allow players to walk within yards of his hide. He's a meticulous person who loves a job well done.
* Decent physical fitness. He doesn't need to work real hard at being a Sniper, but he must be able to spend long periods creeping on his belly without freaking out.
* Iron-will and giant reserves of stubbornness. To out-wit the competition, he must be very committed to winning (his way.) And, yet, he can't be a total lone wolf. The Sniper is useless unless he's part of the team's larger strategy and willing to take direction from the Commander.
Sniper Skill Progression
Requires at least one paintball day playing Sniper position.
When a player proclaims that he has set his mind to becoming a paintball sniper, he is in for a long learning curve. It takes guts to even consider playing the sniper position, since failure to a sniper can mean point-blank execution when his hiding place is discovered. What's more, woodsballTM is full of yahoos who will tell you that there's no such thing as a paintball sniper.
But, if the Basic Sniper has truckloads of patience and discipline, he may have a future in the position. A Basic Sniper begins with the realization that he may get lucky, but more often than not his ambushes will be blown and will produce only a couple of eliminations. The bigger test will be if the novice sniper can wait patiently through the games where he never sees another soul. Playing Sniper is no place for dudes with ADD.
A Basic Sniper gearkit can include virtually any paintball gun. However, good camo is a must. Gun and facemask camo is also a very good idea. Do your best with the gear you have. If the sniper game agrees with you, then a better gun and better gear may be in your future.
So, get on the ground, Sniper, and get crawling!
Requires at least six paintball days playing Sniper position.
This guy has spent some serious time in the bush (BUSHES, we mean.)
By now, the man knows he is cut out to be a true paintball sniper. He's had a pretty good number of ambushes come together, though he still gets blown on occasion (his COVER gets blown, we mean.) But, he's getting the ambush down as well as his long shot.
Most likely, a Senior Sniper has put a case or two of paint through his paintball gun practicing his one-shot-kill-skill. He has figured out that the other team finds him far less often when his one-shot game is on.
His gear is coming together nicely. His paintgun packs a point sight or scope and his barrel length is growing like a high school kid's johnson in the morning. He's either going ghillie, or he's added ghillie elements to his mask, camo and paintgun.
You know this dude's serious, because his bedroom floor has scraps of leaves and brush that got drug in on his cammies. Keep on creeping, bro!
Requires at least fifteen paintball days playing Sniper position.
This dude's no joke. All those peckers who say that paintball snipers don't exist shut the hell up when he's around. That's because he's owned their sorry asses in enough ambushes that they're ashamed to open their mouths.
His legendary ambushes have forced the enemy to a crawl—their overactive imaginations see him in every bush and around every corner. And, still, the Master Sniper catches them with their pants down every game or two.
When our boy gets the high ground, the muppets run for cover. He's hell on wheels when he's got the long shot. He's an expert at measuring distances and gauging the drop and windage of a single, deadly paintball shot.
His paintgun is fully hooked up, with a reliable sight and some serious sound suppression. When he pops you from fifty yards, you can't even tell which zip code he shot from. He is a monster for stealth and the locals all live in fear of his backdoor ambush.
You best make sure you're on this dude's team.
Requires at least fifteen paintball days playing SnipeSpecial Ops Action Ghillier
position and a special commendation from Team Special Ops Paintball.
Out there in the bush, there was no forgetting this guy. He is a Master Sniper with undeniable skills. He either ran with the Special Ops guys and proved his mettle, or he put the drop
on their asses in some distant battlefield.
Either way, the SpecOps boys had to tip their hats to this stealthy badass. Even more than his gear (which is top-flight all the way,) he showed elite skills and iron nerve. He has a legendary rep as an Elite Sniper and Team SpecOps couldn't ignore his skills.
Rock on, Sniper!

The 1969 ford mach mustang is a favorite of both mustang fans and major vehicle collectors. The performance elements and unique design have actually helped seal the mach mustangýs position in vehicle history. The majority of automobile shows will have at least one 1969 ford mach mustang on screen that has been kept in prime condition. Even those 1969 ford mach mustang featured at vehicle reveals that have not been kept in prime condition are sources of excellent affection and can inspire much envy in those who have actually never ever owned a mustang, not to mention a classic mustang.
Production of the Mustang started in Dearborn, Michigan on March 9, 1964 and the automobile was introduced to the general public on April 17, 1964 at the New york city World's Fair. It is Ford's 3rd oldest nameplate currently in production. Original sales forecasts projected less than 100,000 devices for the first year. This mark was surpassed in three months from rollout. Another 318,000 would be offered during the design year (a record), and in its first eighteen months, more than one million Mustangs were constructed.
Best Deals Online For Buying Ford Mustangs
All these were VIN-identified as 1965 models, however several changes were made at the traditional opening of the new model year (start August 1964), including the addition of back-up lights on some designs, the introduction of alternators to change generators, and an upgrade of the V8 engine from 260 cu into 289 cu in. When it comes to a minimum of some six-cylinder Mustangs fitted with the 101 hp 170 cu in Falcon engine, the rush into production included some uncommon quirks, such as a horn ring bearing the 'Ford Falcon' logo design beneath a trim ring emblazoned with 'Ford Mustang.' These qualities made adequate difference to call for classification of the 121,538 earlier ones as "1964 1/2" model-year Mustangs, a difference that has endured with purists. Mustangs For Sale in Inkster ND are easy to find now with online shopping.
The 1973 OPEC oil embargo brought with it more rigid contamination laws and the desire for fuel-efficiency. This was also the very first time in automobile history that the Huge 3 were having to compete with imports. The brand-new Mustang II was smaller than the very first variation however, due to the added equipment required to fulfill brand-new US emission and safety regulations, was heavier than the very first design. Efficiency was decreased and in the very first year just 385,993 cars were sold.
Second generation Mustangs for sale in Inkster ND were offered between 1974 and 1978 and available in a coupe and hatchback variation. 1979 the Mustang was upgraded a third time. This time it was based on the larger Fox platform and the interior was truly huge enough for four people. The trunk was larger and so was the engine bay. The body designs offered consisted of a coupe, hatchback and in 1983 a convertible. In 1979 the 3rd generation Mustang acted as an Indianapolis 500 speed vehicle and Ford constructed 10,478 celebratory replicas. The third generation Mustangs were produced from 1979 to 1982.

University of Southampton (2014) Roman Amphorae: a digital resource [data-set]. York: Archaeology Data Service [distributor] https://doi.org/10.5284/1028192
This website is an online and introductory resource for the study of Roman amphorae, rather than a definitive study of all amphorae for specialists. It encompasses most of the principal types manufactured throughout the Roman empire between the late third century BC and the early seventh century AD. In the amphora descriptions that follow, the word "Type" is used loosely and is taken to represent a shape which has been recognized as being significantly different from other known shapes by previous studies. The defining characteristics are usually details of key aspects of a vessel's shape, such as its rim, neck, handles, body and spike (foot).
It builds upon two works published in the 1980s (Peacock and Williams, 1986; Keay, 1984) and presents basic typological information for c. 250 forms. It would have been impossible to include all amphorae and their variants on this site, not least because new types continue to be discovered on excavations, particularly in the eastern Mediterranean. Preference has thus been given to providing basic information about the more common types of amphorae while trying to ensure as broad a geographical spread as possible. Inevitably, therefore, some types of regional or local significance will not be represented. The site also largely excludes those amphorae, such as Punic, Iberian and Ebussitanian types, which were produced during the Roman Republican period but whose shape lies outside the mainstream Roman amphora tradition. Detailed typological information about variants has been kept to a minimum. The distinguishing feature of this website is that it provides information about the clay fabric of most types derived from the physical analysis of the clay by visual and thin-section analysis. This arises from the belief that while typological issues are important in identifying amphorae, the characterization of clay fabrics has a greater role to play than has often been the case to date.
The website has been designed by the ADS to have a standard ADS look and feel so as to be familiar to users of other ADS resources. There are basically three main sections to the website: Amphora types, fabric types and bibliographic references. These are supported by additional background information on the resource and search tools. The information is organised in such a way as to allow a user to browse in a non-linear fashion, with hyperlinks between related concepts. For example, a user may wish to find an amphora type by name initially, then find amphorae which share a particular characteristic, and finally view which fabrics are associated with these amphorae. Alternatively, a user may be interested in a particular fabric and begin by searching the catalogue of fabric types before viewing particular amphorae of interest and finally associated references. A third option would be to search for a particular reference of interest and follow the links through to see which amphora are referred to by the specified reference. As such, there are a number of starting points and paths through the information resource.
Each page within the website has the standard ADS ArchSearch banner on the left hand side providing a standard set of ADS links. At the top of each page is the project banner and below this, the website navigation pane. This navigation pane provides the following links:
Follow this link to access the main section of the database; the catalogue of amphora. The catalogue is presented as an alphabetical list of amphora names. Each amphora type represented on this website has been assigned its own entries, many of which have been put together by different contributors. Since the amount of information known about each amphora type varies quite considerably, there is some variation in the level of detail recorded - although every attempt has been to ensure a basic level of consistency. Click on a name to go to the detailed information page for that particular amphora type.
It begins with a leading Type name, and is that by which it is frequently known. Since many types have featured in a number of different typologies, many types have several names, which are listed under the heading "Classification". The type names applied to amphorae either refer to scholars (e.g. Dressel or Beltrán), ancient provinces (e.g. Tripolitania), sites (e.g. Augst), modern places near to where they were manufactured (e.g. Forlimpopoli) or general names (e.g. Late Roman Amphora).
Each amphora "page" is structured in the following way:
Distinctive features:
A brief description of the complete amphora type, emphasizing the distinguishing characteristics of its rim, handles, and spike. This is accompanied by a line-drawing(s) of a complete example, or a fragment where this is known: all the drawings on the website are drawn to a common scale of 1 to 10, and details at 1 to 5. Colour photographs are also provided. More detailed analysis of the shape, sub-types and general variations in shape can be found in the publications cited for the type. In those cases where an amphora was stamped, there is a link to the stamps hosted by the CEIPAC (Centro para el Estudio de la Interdependencia Provincial en la Antiguedad Clásica) website, hosted by the Universitat de Barcelona.
Date range:
The approximate dates (earliest and latest) for production of the amphorae. These mostly, but not always, tend to derive from the sites on land to which the amphorae had been imported and used, rather than from the sites at which they were produced since well-dated kiln sites are still comparatively rare. In some cases wrecks provide important sealed assemblages of amphorae dated to the time that the ships foundered.
A brief statement as to main known areas of production. Preference is given in this website to origins known directly from the discovery of specific forms at an identified kiln site, the identification of mineral inclusions distinctive to a particular part of the Roman empire (see fabric below), or information recorded in tituli picti and stamps. Vagueries of discovery make distribution maps a potentially erroneous way of assigning origins to amphorae. Similarities in shape are subjective and can be misleading.
Origin List:
Search criteria for a list of countries or areas where the type is known or thought to have been manufactured.
This statement attempts to summarize what is known about the broad areas of the type distribution. It is not intended to read as a list of all known find-spots, which would be well beyond the scope of this resource. The regions and places cited for each type give an approximate idea as to the extent to which the type was traded: some of the more important sites can be located on maps of the Roman empire. Detailed distribution maps have not been provided since, without a list of all known published and unpublished examples of each type, this could be potentially misleading.
Distribution List:
Search criteria for a list of countries or areas where the type has been found.
Contents statement:
A statement as to the known or hypothesized content. Occasionally this is known from food residues (mainly wine, fish sauce, olive oil) found in the amphorae themselves. In other cases, it is suggested on the basis of the content of tituli picti. For many, however, it is little more than an educated guess based upon the crops known to have been produced in the suggested production area, or the similarity of the form to others whose content is better known. It should also be borne in mind that some amphorae were re-used, holding different contents at different time, while others may have been designed as non-commodity specific.
Contents List:
Search criteria for a list of the specific products transported or thought to be transported by the amphorae.
Names of the individuals responsible for compiling the description of the amphorae (see Scientific Collaboration Below). Unless otherwise stated, all fabric and petrological descriptions were undertaken by David Williams.
Alternative names that have been assigned to that amphora type.
This page also includes:
Search criteria for capacity. This statement attempts to provide an idea of the capacity of the amphora type. Since there is often variation in the size of amphorae within a type, this should be regarded as approximate and the upper limit of size. The capacity of types known only as fragments is impossible to calculate.
Min Height, Max Height, Min Rim Diameter, Maximum Rim Diameter:
These are the approximate measurements of complete examples, or fragments if these survive. These are often an important criterion in assigning fragments to one form or another. Further measurements of rim, base or handle fragments can be found in the more detailed studies and site reports cited under references.
Search criteria for the type of fabric in which the amphora is made.
It is hoped that this information, together with the hand specimen photos (see below), will allow comparisons to be made with material belonging to those accessing the site and for the origins of particular amphorae to be confidently sourced. In this site we have emphasized the hand-specimen and petrographic descriptions of amphorae because of their visual nature in the aid to characterization and identification. However, a growing body of work on the provenance of amphora fabrics has also been deduced from chemical analysis (see for example Gurt Esparraguera et alii, 2004; Eiring and Lund, 2004). Although that kind of evidence is not presented here in detail it is incorporated into discussions about origins where relevant.
In some cases, fabric samples were unavailable for certain types so that a detailed fabric description was not possible. Nevertheless it was felt worthwhile to include the typological information in the interests of making the type better known.

um, aren't these the cutest?! I found them at Homegoods, of course.
Happy Happy November!
November is so special to me for so many reasons, my anniversary, my dogs birthday, and Thanksgiving!
These quotes are all verses on thankfulness!
And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. - Colossians 3:15-17
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. - Philippians 4:6
Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. -1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
Remember this month to be thankful to the Lord for everything he has given you and be kind to others!

To create a vision statement, make a list of long-term business goals. Choose one or two goals that represent where you want the business to be in five to 10 years. Write two or three sentences that incorporate these goals to create an inspiring message employees can understand.
Effective vision statements can help motivate employees by keeping everyone focused on the same business goals. A vision statement is more than a list of long-term goals, a rehash of your mission statement or a collection of hopes and dreams. It is instead used to influence employee decision-making, encourage problem solving and solidify your employees' commitment to meeting these goals.
Maintain a positive, motivational tone when crafting a vision statement. The length of the statement isn't as important as its tone and message. You may have to revise the statement several times before finding the right mix of words and phrases. If you don't know how to start, review your mission statement and business plan to determine long-term business goals.
Keep in mind that, unlike a mission statement or business plan, a vision statement is meant to motivate your employees. It is not meant to inform customers and investors about how your business works or how fast the business is growing. As your business grows, revise the vision statement to reflect new goals.

Material previously published on this page has been removed. We have expurgated this content in good faith with the parties described in the text. It is not our practice to self-censor, and this will never happen on this news blog, but in light of circumstances, it is both desirable and appropriate that we amend the content.
This brings us to "that" White Genocide rally and certain videos made by Nick Folkes with the fat piss boy who follows him about like a bitch on heat.
A video came to our attention featuring Nick Folkes and his obese mulatto piss boy. What struck us was the utterly moronic commentary — a statement so dumb with every conceivable bogan cliché that it might well have been a far left parody. But it wasn't.
Nobody will ever accuse Nick Folkes of possessing a genius IQ, but it would be amiss to assume that he was not aware of what he was doing.
In fact, what he and the Lardboy Wonder were doing was ridiculing the entire notion of White Genocide by making it a mockery. This is curious because it means that the very party he created is being used as a now dispensable battering ram.
Yet, by treading on nationalist turf where he fully knows he neither belongs nor is welcome, Folkes has given it his best shot at making nationalism look stupid by acting absurd. He always was a willing fool, who inserts objects into his rectum, sticks condoms to his face, and wraps himself in bog roll. It didn't require a lot of nerve for this natural buffoon to debase himself and such a serious issue.

There was a similar thread to this on the info pop site I was reading a few weeks ago. One guy there posted he had put 175,000 MILES (280,000K?) on WVO on his semi trailer with no problems what so ever
There were lots of people posting having used wvo for tens of thousands of miles.
As I understand from what I have read, the lubrication properties of SVO and bio are enormously better than those of low sulphur diesel so it would stand to reason if a WVO system is correctly set up with proper preheating of the oil, engine life should be increased.

Valentines Ecards - Charming, Funny, Inspirational
Cupid, arrows, hearts - these are all signs connected with Valentine's Day. You can have these exact same signs and more when you opt to send Valentine's ecards this year to everybody on your contact list. You don't need to spend hours browsing amongst the selection in a retail store searching for one that reveals your sensations, which may be romantic or just relationship. Find more info on http://ekarda.com here.
Searching through the vast option readily available online provides you a lot more ideas that you probably realized existed and you can do this shopping from the comfort of your home at any time of the day or night.
The practice of sending out ecards is getting appeal more and more each year as individuals realize that this is a way in which they can secure the environment. Electronic welcoming cards do not require paper and for that reason no trees need to be ruined in order to produce them. The numerous additions you can have with this choice make them really appealing, particularly if you just cannot create an appropriate message in a traditional card. You can customize each and every card with your own message and you have endless space for typing in this message. Let somebody whom you haven't seen in a while everything that is happening in your life.
You do not have to spend a cent in order to send out Valentine's ecards to whomever you kindly, no matter where they live. All of the websites for ecards have free designs to choose from and as long as the recipient has an email address, the card will be provided to him or her.
Send a Valentine's ecard to your friend or to someone just to tell them how much their relationship indicates to you. You can have loads of enjoyable selecting a card that applies to individual tastes and hobbies and with the animations and music you can consist of, this will reveal your feelings better than a traditional welcoming card might ever do.
It might take you fairly some time to pick Valentine's ecards for everyone on your list. However, it will be enjoyable and you won't even recognize how much time has actually passed. Just choose a category, such as an ecard for mom, daddy, husband or spouse. Take a look at each design and play the card so that you know what the recipient will see when he/she opens the email including the link to the card. You might want to look into each card in the category just to get a look at the different animations, characters and music. In this way, you can have as much pleasure picking an ecard for Valentine's Day as the individual will have after opening it.
Since many people are really cognizant of phishing frauds through emails, you must alert the recipient that you may be sending ecards his/her way on celebration. It is really most likely you will get a Thank you message or an ecard in return when the recipient does open and check out the card.

In late June, the Office of the Attorney General (OAG) and the Illinois High School Association (IHSA) reached an agreement, settling two pending federal court cases, aimed at ensuring that student athletes with disabilities have full and equal opportunities to compete in interscholastic sports.
The settlement has its origins in a 2012 case initiated by a former Illinois high school student, Mary Kate Callahan, against the IHSA under the Americans with Disabilities Act and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 for failing to address her requests to compete with her school's swim and track and field teams at the state level. The OAG filed a similar companion case. The IHSA also filed a complaint against Attorney General Lisa Madigan seeking a declaratory judgment that it was not in violation of state or federal law. In 2013, the IHSA and Callahan reached a settlement; the OAG and IHSA have now reached a final agreement to resolve all remaining matters.
The agreement calls for the IHSA to take several measures to improve opportunities for student athletes with disabilities including:
- Adopting a new accommodation policy by August 7, 2015, and publicizing it to member schools and participants;
- Designating an ADA Coordinator to review all requests for accommodation as well as promote and publicize opportunities for athletes with disabilities;
- Providing training for IHSA staff on disability rights and awareness; and
- Preparing and posting a webinar outlining the programs and policies of the IHSA related to participation by athletes with disabilities.
Perhaps most notable in the agreement is the requirement that the IHSA implement a system for students with disabilities to compete and earn points in the Combined State Championships for track and field and for swimming and diving. These new opportunities will be provided alongside long-standing IHSA programs like the wheelchair basketball tournament. The IHSA will also be tasked with maintaining all results and records for student athletes with disabilities as it does for student records for all sports and activities. Additionally, the IHSA will host an annual road race open to all students, including racers in wheelchairs. The goals of this race are to encourage participation of all high school students and increase interest in all high school sports, including by students with disabilities.
To ensure that the IHSA complies with the provisions of the agreement, the OAG has authority to review IHSA's compliance at any time. The IHSA ADA Coordinator will also be available to assist member districts in allowing students with disabilities to earn team points in swimming and diving, track and field, and bowling during the regular season.
The settlement marks a significant expansion of the opportunities for student athletes with disabilities to participate and compete with their classmates at the state level. Many districts already allow and encourage students with disabilities to compete at the local level. Through this agreement, the IHSA will now be able to provide guidance and support to those districts and to districts seeking to expand opportunities.

Deuteronomy 16:18-17:13 New International Version (NIV)
18 Appoint judges and officials for each of your tribes in every town the Lord your God is giving you, and they shall judge the people fairly. 19 Do not pervert justice or show partiality. Do not accept a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise and twists the words of the innocent. 20 Follow justice and justice alone, so that you may live and possess the land the Lord your God is giving you.
Worshiping Other Gods
21 Do not set up any wooden Asherah pole beside the altar you build to the Lord your God, 22 and do not erect a sacred stone, for these the Lord your God hates.
17 Do not sacrifice to the Lord your God an ox or a sheep that has any defect or flaw in it, for that would be detestable to him.
2 If a man or woman living among you in one of the towns the Lord gives you is found doing evil in the eyes of the Lord your God in violation of his covenant, 3 and contrary to my command has worshiped other gods, bowing down to them or to the sun or the moon or the stars in the sky, 4 and this has been brought to your attention, then you must investigate it thoroughly. If it is true and it has been proved that this detestable thing has been done in Israel, 5 take the man or woman who has done this evil deed to your city gate and stone that person to death. 6 On the testimony of two or three witnesses a person is to be put to death, but no one is to be put to death on the testimony of only one witness. 7 The hands of the witnesses must be the first in putting that person to death, and then the hands of all the people. You must purge the evil from among you.
Law Courts
8 If cases come before your courts that are too difficult for you to judge—whether bloodshed, lawsuits or assaults—take them to the place the Lord your God will choose. 9 Go to the Levitical priests and to the judge who is in office at that time. Inquire of them and they will give you the verdict. 10 You must act according to the decisions they give you at the place the Lord will choose. Be careful to do everything they instruct you to do. 11 Act according to whatever they teach you and the decisions they give you. Do not turn aside from what they tell you, to the right or to the left. 12 Anyone who shows contempt for the judge or for the priest who stands ministering there to the Lord your God is to be put to death. You must purge the evil from Israel. 13 All the people will hear and be afraid, and will not be contemptuous again.

~*~*~ I will take this chance to welcome everyone to Room 13 ~*~*~
It is going to be an amazing year and you should all be ready for some fantastic new learning
You get two grades learning how to do addition from each other!
Today we all took advantage of the beautiful weather to demonstrate just how hard our two grades have been working. My class and Mr French's classes got together to let the students demonstrate their knowledge of addition. They were given chalk and had to find a space in the yard where they would become the teacher. Their job was to teach their class (small group) how to add. They were able to choose how difficult their "sums" were and then let lose into the wild.
We even had a surprise visit from Henry and Duyen from Room 16 who helped us demonstrate what they know.

Jerry Lee, the Queens NY SEAL
Don Shipley sends us this note;
Hello Guys… I have a new buddy, a corporate Head Hunter with access to job resume postings from around the world… He searches "Navy SEAL" and send them to me for verification… In the month we've been doing this he has sent me several HUNDRED resumes that are total fakes… I've sent the below clown to you.
Perhaps you can find something to post him on "This Ain't Hell." In my opinion, when they "Post Online" all their contact information seeking work then they should appreciate us posting their resumes in their entirety for the world to see and for others to contact them with job offers…
I've also attached Jerry's picture. When I asked Jerry if he wanted to work for me as a SEAL Instructor he explained that he was VERY HAPPY at his new position working at Olive Garden…
You can't make this shit up…
Cheers… Don Shipley…

Hi Tracie,
Can you help me understand the math on the Duncan Hines frosting/cake deal? If the coupon states B1G1 cake mix WYB 2 frostings/glazes, you would pay $1.50 x2 for the frosting and then have to buy a cake mix on top of that in order to get a free cake mix, right? It seems to me that you'd need to pay $3 for the two frostings and then whatever the cost of the 1 cake mix is. This doesn't seem like that great of deal. What am I missing? You say each item will be $0.50.
Yes, I was confused by that also. It is a great deal but I would like to know how it works.
I was wondering, where in the Hen House ad can I find the Green Giant Steamers? I've searched it front to back three times and can't find them.
The Duncan Hines coupon is buy 2 frostings, get one cake mix free. The green giant veggies were .79 last week on the clipless coupon deals. You have to register your Hen House card online and the clipless coupons are automatically added to your card each week. Can someone tell me if the C&H sugar is on sale? I see it above, but I don't see it in the ad and it didn't have a sale sign by it at the store this morning. Thanks!
I was wondering the same thing about the C&H.
There"s a coupon for $.75/1 Kraft 2% cheese singles on Coupons.com. If you can't find it try zip 85743. HTH 🙂

Expanding plywood pathways, grating bulldozers, groaning cranes and legions of construction workers are part of Harvard Square's ambiance these days--but it's a change some can do without.
The Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority (MBTA) is expanding the Red Line, and has uprooted plenty of negative feelings along with the Cambridge mud.
Robert M. Godinho, a driver for the K.S. taxi service, said yesterday construction in the Square has cut his daily fares in half.
"We're all working longer hours, and a lot of guys don't even want to come into Harvard Square anymore," he said, adding "The MBTA is going to hurt us for the next two years."
Construction officials set up temporary taxi stands in several different locations, but when the drivers objected, they finally settled on a 15-cab stand outside Lehman Hall on Mass Ave.
"We were going to pull a strike if they hadn't given us this stand. I'd like to find out if we could get a lawyer and sue them," Godinho said.
Juri R. Prince, a taxi driver for Ambassador Brattle Cabs, echoed Godinho's feelings, saying the finished product may not be worth the trouble.
But Larry Hurley, a union laborer for the MBTA, said yesterday while it's noisy, dirty and "a little hard to take, when it's finished the new station will attract more people and business to the Square."
But the sweep of construction inconveniences more people than only those who work in the Square.
Theresa D. Hord '82 said yesterday simple things like not being able to cross the street and having to catch the shuttle at Quincy Square annoy her most. "My gripe is that it has made things inconvenient for students. Things could have been done better," she said.
A freshman from Lesley College, Linda J. Maleros, said yesterday she spends about half an hour a week walking around construction. "I won't come into the city unless I have to. It's one big rush and you're always being pushed around."
Ricardo H. Coca, who moved to Brighton two months ago and commutes through the Square, said yesterday he's looking forward to a more convenient and comfortable transit system.
"If they don't go through all this construction now they'll have a problem anyway--they need more space," Coca said.
Charles P. Galatis, a Cambridge resident who works in Boston, said yesterday the benefits of the construction outweigh its disadvantages.
"The extension of the subway system is a positive thing for the community--there can be no doubt about that," he said. "On that basis we can tolerate it for a couple of years."
Galatis added, though that the MBTA could have handled traffic and noise problems more efficiently. 'My impression is that they're not doing everything they can," he said.

Steve Hillage - University Of Kent 1979 [Bootleg]
Pirates on the open seas in 2008!
Sorry but am I the only person in the world who is slightly surprised that a ship carrying $100 million worth of oil (or anything for that matter) doesn't have any kind of arms on-board?
I mean, maybe one guy with an old Glock pistol? Even a friggin' Musket or some amateur archery wizard would be better than erm, oh, just the people required to make the ship move.
I say this because they were in the area that they know to be full of these pirates and they know these pirates have already got so many ships and hold so many civilians as hostages.
Ie. they were putting the crew at risk bigtime.
So um, did no-one think of getting some kind of friggin' security on their ship?
Moving on.
Well at least we are not the only pirates then.
There are few guitarists that merit the amount of awe I have for this next guy.
There is, of course, Jimi Hendrix which goes without saying really. To tell the truth I don't have many in my list at all. I know loads of guitar players for sure but, those with some kind of 'gift' that makes me unable to react as I am overwhelmed by the amazement their playing gives, are not so many.
Not for me at least though I would welcome any you would like to recommend?
(David Gilmour is one too).
Steve Hillage isn't as well known as the two names I just mentioned and yet, he is one of the most capable and very original and inventive players you will ever hear. He literally feels the guitar. He doesn't just play it, he becomes it!
Hehe. I know it sounds a bit hippie but that's tough shit.
It was during my 'hippie phase' that I got so into listening to him but it's carried on and stayed with me for life because his talent is a lot more and goes so much deeper than just the 'something that sounds cool when you're off your head' music. (Although it does!)
He has that spark of something that can't be explained very well...he has the ability to control you with his music. I don't mean he makes you go out and revolt against the government(!), he is the best I know at stroking the audience gently...inviting you in slowly with a hypnotic, uncomplicated riff and building on it, bit by bit, transforming it into a journey where you feel you could be soaring above the skies, out into space even, twisting and turning, through different dimensions and warped time...then he will hit you with a solo so strange and fast that your comfort zone, the one he helped you create, is suddenly shattered and you find yourself spinning wildly.
Have no fear of course, for he will lead you back into the hypnotic and meditative where he will eventually set you down slowly so that you can 'land' back where you started, feeling enlightened and refreshed!
Wow. I tried to describe what it's like listening to his music and I think I kind of covered it there :)
This is a live show - and that is another thing about him...playing live, he is just incredible. Doesn't miss a note.

Fourteen Reasons for an Internet Business
Are you worried in retirement or about going on retirement? Are you unemployed? Are you laid-off? Are you worried about insufficient income? Are you worried about the economy? Are you worried about your paycheck? Are you burdened with debt? Do you want to spend more time with your family? Are you looking for self-esteem? Do you want to contribute to your community? Do you want to benefit from large tax deductions? Do you want to save money on working clothes and eating out? Are you looking for flexible working hours? Do you want to work at your own pace? Do you want a business you can sell out profitably tomorrow?
If yes, then embrace an Internet home business.
But a word of caution: do not go into an internet home business just to please somebody. Moms-at-home especially feel under pressure "to do something useful." They feel that they must undertake a home business to make a lot of money to feel successful, be a perfect at-home-mom, or do something to avoid that extra pound. Start an internet home business solely to satisfy your urge to make money on the internet.
You must also know that running a business is not for everyone. But if you really itch for it, starting an Internet business at home is the best way to earn money from the internet.
Now, let's look at fourteen reasons for you to engage in an internet home business.
1. Worry about Retirement
The U.S. Social Security Board reports that 85 out of 100 Americans reaching age 65 don't have as much as $250. Worse, only 2% of them are self-sustaining. To survive, the rest rely on family, church, or the government. With lots of legitimate internet home businesses out there, you can easily get money online and assure your retirement.
2. Worry about the economy
We all know the sluggish state in which the American economy is. Any employee would be worried stiff in such circumstances. But should that be the case when one can do a home business part-time or full time to earn extra income on the internet? Know that our individual incomes add up to the national income and that way we can salvage the national economy.
3. Insufficient income
Not having enough money in one's pocket and especially in the bank is a source of great worry. How would you manage should an emergency arise? That thought alone is enough to run one crazy. Fortunately extra income is only a mouse click away.
4. Unemployed or laid off
In these days of economic doldrums, millions of people are out of work and many more are being laid off every day. When your means of livelihood suddenly vanishes, life could be very disastrous, leading to depression, etc. But that doesn't have to be the case. When the door of you regular employment is closed, the one of internet home business still remains wide open. Take the decision to walk though it. Running your own business means you are no longer at someone else's whim who can decide to lay you off any minute. Of course your home business can also bring surprises but here, at least, you are in control of your destiny.
5. Worry about paycheck
Living from payday to payday is not a life. You have no room to maneuver, therefore no insurance and cushion against life's unexpected twists. An internet home business could bring you a stream of paychecks if only to make ends meet.
6. Burdened by debt
If you have debts, your life will be filled with sadness, anguish, fear and frustration. There is nothing worse to make you feel worthless. But with the right internet home business, you can start gaining money on the internet in no time and get out of debt.
7. Spend more time with the family
Who wouldn't want to spend more time with the family? But commuting to and from work takes up much of our time and the working schedule also fatigues us. We come home battered and start thinking of tomorrow. Hence we don't even entertain the thought of spending time with the family. But if you dream of spending more time at home with your kids, an internet business—being based at home—is your ideal job.
8. Gain self-esteem
Being a busy mom or wife, being dependent on others, taunted by work or money or debt, and forced by circumstances "to turn one's back" on the family all reduce one's worth in the eyes of others. Engagement in an internet home business can boost one's feelings of self worth.
9. Contribute to the community
Businesses, in addition to their legal obligations of contributing to the welfare of the community (payment of taxes to support the police and fire for example), also reduce unemployment by employing people. They can also exhibit social responsibility towards the community by financing community projects, etc. Businesspeople, by their positions, become role models for the young generation. A community where people create jobs, have work, work hard and feel pride is a better place to live in.
10. Benefit from tax deductions
Home businesses are eligible for large tax deductions. The home business owner will therefore have more money in their pocket for personal development, for reinvesting in the business and for the family's welfare, and why not, the community's also.
11. Make household savings
One does not need expensive wardrobes to work at home. This will translate into much more money saved on the family budget. Working at home also does not oblige one to eat out at break at expensive convenience foods and restaurants.
12. Have flexible working hours:
One big advantage of working at home is the ability to fit one's working schedule around one's and the family's needs. You go on break when you want, you take a day off if you wish, and you can go on vacation when and as frequently as you want.
13. Work at your own pace
Being your own boss, you decide when to start work, how long you work, and how much you make. Knowing however that the harder you work the more you earn, does not leave room for laziness in an internet home business.
14. Sell out your business later
And when you work that hard and consistently and your home business grows large and becomes successful and popular, you can sell it for a handsome sum. Cases of website owners who have sold their sites for hundreds of thousands of dollars and even millions are common.
Now that you know what you can do to lose your financial worries, to add a second paycheck, to create an immediate supplemental income stream, to wipe out your debt, to build residual and leveraged income, to take back your life, to join the "2 per centers of retirees," to trade your job for a yob (your own business), to not work for 40 years or more to make $40,000 a year or less just so you can retire on 40% of what wasn't enough in the first place, why don't you start your own Internet business from home now?

WITHINGTON's vastly experienced professional Steve Marr is looking forward to the challenge of his new job at the popular Mersey club in south Manchester.
Following the recent sad death of long-serving Bob Ling he was offered the post after working at the club for four months prior to Bob's death.
Although Marr has travelled around the world during his career he has strong local connections having begun his golf at Ashton-on-Mersey as a junior with the likes of David Screeton.
His professional career saw him serve for a year at Withington under professional Keith Oliver before moving to Prestbury where he enjoyed five great years as assistant to Pat Collins whose father Sid was a chief coach at the PGA training school at Lilleshall.
Having gained his PGA qualification at the age of 19, Marr had high playing ambitions at the time and played on the European Tour alongside former Didsbury junior Andrew Murray.
His next move was to become the professional at Cheadle for a year before moving into Shropshire where he worked at Shifnal and Telford Golf and Country Club where he concentrated his energies on teaching golf.
The next big step was to use his teaching skills at Krefelder Golf Club near Dusseldorf in Germany where he worked for five years before then returning to England to teach at the Shropshire Golf Club.
Then the last big move came in 2000 with a job in Orlando, Florida, before returning to England in late 2003 when a contact with North Region PGA secretary Jim Croxton saw him take up the temporary post at Withington.
Croxton said: "I am delighted that Withington have offered the job to Steve who has done a great job at the club and deserves the chance to establish himself at a fine club.
"He has had great experience of golf and will be a real asset to Withington.
Marr added: "I aim to give the Withington members a great service with deals in the shop and lessons where I have access to a video teaching room in the clubhouse.
"I have enjoyed running a short-game clinic for ladies and will look to continue this in the future.
"I will also look to play as much as my commitments allow in Manchester Alliance and regional competitions as well as in matches for the club and I am looking forward to all of the challenges ahead."
Colin Webb, one of Withington's finest-ever golfers, took the Cairncross Trophy with a terrific 67-5-62 card.
There was a full field for the Withington Salver and there were clear winners in Roger and Penny Fielding.

SEMINAR - Swift and The Historical Content in 'Gulliver's Travels'.
As the text is complex and has two and half centuries of fierce criticism with regards to Swift's character and the content of the text and its meaning, it has been necessary to reduce the seminar topic too a manageable section.
In this seminar I will be discussing one aspect of Swift and the text 'Gulliver's Travels', that of the historical content and its focus and its indirect relation to the question 'To what extent Swift was a critic of the Enlightenment?'The answer is a complex one as is Johnathan Swift and the text. In order to make the answer more comprehensible I have broken up this seminar into two main areas of discussion under the subheadings-
1:- The Historical and Biographical factors that influenced Swift in his life.
2:- The Historical Content and its Focus in the text.
1:- The Historical and Biographical factors that influenced Swift in his life.
Swift was born and brought up in comparative poverty in Ireland, this meant that he grew up among an unstable society torn by fundamental political and religious differences. His father died several months before he was born and his parents marriage had been, by his own later account, rather imprudent. So he was brought up in modest circumstances depending on his Uncle who later paid for him to get an education. Swift had direct and personal experience of revolutionary instability of a kind few of his English contemporaries would have had. His father and Uncle had settled in Ireland as late as the restoration, being thus among the newest, most rootless, of the alien English racial and religious minority.
The peasants life in Ireland which had a large population had a profound affect on Swift due to the severe...

There has long been a saying in the real estate market that potential homebuyers don't buy according to the home price or the mortgage rate. Instead, "they buy the monthly payment." The monthly payment is, of course, a combination of rate and price, but the weight of each can change dramatically.
For example, home prices were able to soar uncontrollably during the last housing boom only because risky mortgage products at the time made monthly payments minuscule and down payments often nonexistent.
Of course when those monthly payments turned into pumpkins, the housing market came crashing down. A dramatic rise in home prices, like we saw last year, can slow home sales even when mortgage rates are low if mortgage availability is tighter. That's what we saw in the first half of this year.
