Tax Debt Strategies:
Filed under: Tax Debt
Many people owe the IRS money. In fact, it is estimated that nearly 6 million Americans are in some sort of tax debt. While dealing with the IRS can be stressful, it is not impossible. There are many ways you can manage your tax debts and get out from under the eye of the IRS.
Review Your Records
One mistake people often make when dealing with unpaid taxes is failing to review their previous tax returns for inaccuracies. It is not uncommon to find a mistake on a previous return, which could lower your overall tax liability. Although it is rare to find a mistake big enough to completely erase your tax debts, it is possible to find inaccuracies that could save you significant amounts of money. Review your tax deductions and double check your employer's calculation of withholding and tax liabilities, you just my find something to work in your favor.
Contact The IRS
Most people have the inclination to ignore their tax debt problems and hope to avoid dealing with the IRS. The truth is, contacting the IRS is your best chance at finding relief from your tax debts. Whether they have contacted you or not, you can bet your unpaid taxes will catch up to you and you will owe far more than necessary in penalties. The IRS offers several ways to help you get caught up on your tax payments and resolve your debts. Contact the IRS to inquire about an installment plan or Offer In Compromise to begin the process of alleviating your tax debts.

Quick Reference
The name by which the sons and grandson of Yakub of Mitylene, a coasting captain and trader, were generally known by Christians during the 16th century. Of his four sons, Arouj, Khizr, Elias, and Isaak, the first two took to piracy and soon became feared throughout the Mediterranean for the ferocity of their attacks on both Christian shipping and the native African princes. Both were heavily bearded with red hair, which probably accounts for their name, but Khizr was also known as Khair-ed-Din. This was a name which struck even greater terror in many Christian hearts though earning for him a reputation as a great hero throughout Islam.
From 1510 to 1545–6, the two brothers engaged in almost continuous warfare, alternating their attacks on African states with descents on the Spanish or Italian coasts and the harrying of shipping in the Mediterranean. Arouj was eventually killed by Spanish troops, but Khair-ed-Din lived until 1547, his last exploit being a plundering expedition to the coast of Italy in 1544. With the vast riches he had gained, he built a large palace at Constantinople, and it was there that he died. His son Hassan, also known as Barbarossa, confined his operations mostly to the Levant and was not so terrifying a figure in Christian eyes, though his reputation as his father's son was often enough to suppress disorders along the North African coast as and when required.

Playing with this all weekend, Quad Camera by Tatayuki Fukatsu. Quad Camera is a quick iPhone app that lets your iPhone take continuous snapshots to create a single snapshot. Think, like a Holga or a Lomo with included color settings like bright, b/w, vivid, hi-contrast, etc. All this for a $1.99? Booya!
Quad Camera accomplishes what it sets out: super fast shutter time, processing speed, and saturated/vintage finishes to your iPhone photos. It brings lo-fi to your digital photos. I can't afford to purchase a Lomo or a Diana but for my purposes, I love the efficiency (and quality control) of digital cameras. I'm OK with not owning analog cameras (which cost a pretty penny for their lo-fi hipness when you include purchasing and developing film). I also reviewed Poladroid, a desktop app that is a lo-fi tribute to analog film (in their case, Polaroids). Still, Quad Camera isn't perfect -- it has to work with the 1.3 megapixel iPhone 3G camera lenses. Just like with analog cameras, how you play with your natural lighting determines the quality of your shot as you can see in my play snapshots.
The great thing about Quad Camera is its developer, Tatayuki Fukatsu
created a free animated gif app, QuadAnimator, to add liveliness to your Quad Camera shots. Nice!
Shameless mugging.

Every Friday I'll be sharing a wee collection of links with you. From DIY to my favourite music tracks, there will be something for everyone.
I wanted to save up all my Halloween posts and just do a "Halloween Themed It's Friday" but there are way too many cool links out there. This is such a cute family costume idea, and not too hard to make either! Katie did hand make a lot of the elements, but you could totally do a less intense "no sew" version.
Georgina may be the most stylish person I know. Seriously, this girl knows fashion. I'm a bit all over the place with my taste, which seems to be how I am with most aspects of life. She has the coolest outfits though, and awesome features where she mix and matches items in her wardrobe. Totally creative, and she always looks amazing. Make sure you check out her blog.
I love this post. Love it. Sometimes I don't feel like blogging, like sharing my life with a whole bunch of strangers, but this is a little reminder why I do it. No way am I on the scale that she is, I definitely don't get paid to do any of this.. But I wanted to blog for a reason, and this totally reminded me why.
I was going to say "this is one for the kids" but then I realised that I would love a crown like this. Whether it was part of a costume, or an alternative "party hat," they are totally lovely! So easy and cheap to make, plus they look mighty cute.
I LOVE this bikini set. Since I lost weight, I am feeling a bit more confident about my body, to the point where I'm quite happy to show it off. I know that my size shouldn't dictate my self image, but I'm so much more proud of my body compared to when I was bigger. Asos have the best swimsuits though, their patterns are wicked and they have some pretty interesting cuts. Summer is coming and I'm feeling pretty adventurous!
Isn't this song beautiful? And I love the video clip as well. No matter what Ed Sheeran does, I'm always a fan and this song is no different. Give it a listen, and then listen again. So lovely.
Animation is awesome. Seriously, some of my favourite movies are Disney or Pixar. This clip is pretty clever, a little sad, but mostly great.
And it's Friday! Today I'm going to a wedding and I'm wearing a crop top! I've never worn one before, I'm a little nervous, but mostly excited to try something new. The wedding is for Rob's cousin who has been engaged to his lovely lady for about 8 years now! Haha it's about time, and I can't wait to see them tie the knot. Other than that, I have another weekend of working (yay 14 day week!) so it's going to be a tiring one.
Have you guys got anything exciting planned?

What an honor to be given such a colorful and lovely award. Thank you, Stacy, from "Impressions of A Ribbon Addict" for thinking of me, and especially the way you did so on a week when I needed encouragement. That must be one of your love languages.
Anyway, I stumbled upon a really incredible site this evening that I immediately fell into love with, so I thought this would be an appropriate blog to pass the "I LOVE YOUR BLOG" award on to. This corner of heaven on the world wide web is centered around praying for our children. Each week, a prayer is posted to do just that. I can't wait to implement these prayers into my daily life. Click here if you would like to do the same:
I wish I knew who to thank for this ministry, but since the name on the blog reads "It's not about me," I'll just thank the Lord for it instead. My guess is that's just what she wants me to do. What a beautiful person.

Although Bill C-7 has been passed by Parliament, it is not yet law in Canada.
It must first be examined and approved by the Senate and then signed into law by the Governor General. If the Senate recommends that significant amendments be made to Bill C-7 then it will have to go back to Parliament for further debate.
The Senate has directed Bill C-7 to their Standing Committee on Legal and Constitutional Affairs, which held some hearings in December, and will be receiving more public input over the month of February.
The Chairperson of the Standing Committee on Legal and Constitutional Affairs is G?rard A Beaudoin. He must be made aware that Canadians support tolerance and harm reduction and do not back the prohibitionist agenda that exists in Bill C-7.
Canada's Minister of Health is Diane Marleau, and Bill C-7 is the responsibility of her department. She must be made to understand that Canadians will not stand for the deceptive way in which Bill C-7 was passed, nor the vicious bigotry in which it is founded.
There are two cards on the opposite page which we encourage you to cut out, fill out, put into an envelope, and mail. Letters to Parliament and to the Senate do not require any postage.
Ideally, it would be even better if you were to use our cards as a guide to writing your own letter, and give the card to a friend to send in. However, just by filling out and mailing these cards you are doing a small service for the cause of freedom and democracy.
Both of these cards allow you the option of requesting specific information from the government. It is important for all Canadians to inform themselves of what their government is up to.
Another key person to whom you should express your sentiments about Bill C-7 is Hedy Fry. She is the MP for Vancouver Centre, where Hemp BC is located. She was also on the Bill C-7 subcommittee and spoke in support of the bill as it was passed by Parliament.
Hedy Fry can be telephoned at (604) 666-0135 or (613) 992-3213, and faxed at (604) 666-0114. Her Parliament address (postage free!) is Room 558-D, Centre Block, House of Commons, Ottawa, Ontario, K1A 0A6. Her Vancouver address is Suite 106, 1030 Denman St., Vancouver, BC, V6G 2M6.

Another great resource we have here was compiled by workers in the WPA. (The Works Progress Administration, or later, the Work Projects Administration, which was signed into effect by FDR.) County histories were researched across Mississippi, and along with them, the family histories that make these such a valuable tool for genealogists today. If you'd like more information about the WPA files, I highly recommend this article from Ancestry.com.
Culling these files can be monotonous work. Sometimes, though, you run across a nugget like this:
Captain Ayers served for fourteen years as chancery clerk of Benton County, and at the time of his death was auditing the sheriff's books, in DeSoto County.This actually reads as "later as hortage was discovered" in the WPA files. I spent at least five minutes trying to find out if hortage were some sort of rare poison. I'm almost sorry I figured out the typo! Also, a whole town suspecting foul play makes me think about old English crime novels, for some reason. Here's an excerpt from the Trees of Note section:
He died suddenly, and later a shortage was discovered in the sheriff books, and it was the suspicion of a great many people that Captain Ayers was poisoned. However no proof of this could be gotten and nothing was ever done.
A very large magnolia tree on the lawn of the old Falconer Place (now the Francisco apartments) is of interest to citizens of Holly Springs, in that it was once the trysting place of Sherwood Bonner, the author, and Kinlock Falconer during a rather serious romance in their early maturity. This tree measures 80 inches in circumference.In their early maturity! That just kills me! You know that I needed to know what happened to our erstwhile lovers. Sherwood married after the Civil War and had a child, but the marriage was unhappy and unfulfilling. She moved to Boston to further her writing, and while there, published two novels, and befriended with Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. She eventually divorced, and then died of breast cancer in 1883. (olemiss.edu/) Kinloch was a soldier in the Civil War and afterwards, was elected Secretary of State of Mississippi in 1878. (apollo.lib.olemiss.edu/) Unfortunately, this was the same year of the Great Yellow Fever Epidemic. Kinloch went home to nurse his father and succumbed to the illness himself. (genealogytrails.com/
By the way, Pigman married Almedia S. Anderson in February of 1852. I'm sure they had a long and fulfilling life together, hopefully uninterrupted by war or Yellow Fever.

New grey rego discs for dogs
Dog registration discs in South Australia will be issued once-off from July this year and replace the yearly discs previously issued to reduce waste and streamline pet registration. From July 1, 2018, registered dogs will be issued with a permanent registration number and a once-off grey coloured disc. Pet owners will need to continue to renew their dog's registration yearly.
Dog and Cat Management Board Secretary Andrew Lamb said the once-off disc and permanent dog registration number will significantly reduce South Australia's plastic landfill.
"The new permanent registration number is linked with the dog, even if the owner moves to another South Australian council or if the dog changes owners," Mr Lamb said.

Using Sonar to Evaluate Your Project
Sonar is the tool that the Church uses to evaluate a project's code quality. We have configured it to a degree to accommodate development patterns that are unique to Church projects. To visit the Sonar install for Community Projects, go to http://code.lds.org/sonar. For internal projects, go to http://sonar.ldschurch.org.
Stack Links
Quality Project
The custom Stack profile builds off of Sonar's default FindBugs + Checkstyle + PMD profile.
Certain rules have been downgraded, though they are still reported for your information. Checkstyles, for example, warns about APIs that are unprotected from extension. However, to protect them (with
final, for example) is to keep Spring from dynamically extended them at runtime. This could definitely cause a lot of bugs in someone's code if they are unaware of it. Thus, it is only an Informational warning, just in case it is not a Spring-managed bean.
Custom rules can also be added to Sonar, and several custom rule plugins for ICS are already under development. Visit Current Sonar Plug-in Efforts to learn, to contribute, or to provide ideas for code checks.
A few alerts have been added to highlight code that may be in danger of brittleness.
The list of alerts is currently:
- Coverage > 50%
- Duplicated Lines > 20%
- Package Cyclic Dependencies > 20%
- Documentation < 50%
- Quality Rules Compliance < 60%.
We have added the Technical Debt and Emma plugins.
Technical Debt
The Technical Debt plugin is a great plugin to help a Project Manager see the changing need for extra time to "clean up" the code. It gives a rough time and resources estimate for resolving all violations and concerns highlighted by Sonar. Read more at http://www.sonarsource.org/evaluate-your-technical-debt-with-sonar/
The Emma plugin allows Sonar to use Emma for Code Coverage analysis, a free alternative to Clover.

Eva's life is not her own. She is a creation, an abomination—an echo. She was made by the Weavers as a copy of someone else, expected to replace a girl named Amarra, her "other," if she ever died. Eva spends every day studying that girl from far away, learning what Amarra does, what she eats, what it's like to kiss her boyfriend, Ray. So when Amarra is killed in a car crash, Eva should be ready. But sixteen years of studying never prepared her for this. Now she must abandon everything and everyone she's ever known—the guardians who raised her, the boy she's forbidden to love—to move to India and convince the world that Amarra is still alive. What Eva finds is a grief-stricken family; parents unsure how to handle this echo they thought they wanted; and Ray, who knew every detail, every contour of Amarra. And when Eva is unexpectedly dealt a fatal blow that will change her existence forever, she is forced to choose: Stay and live out her years as a copy or leave and risk it all for the freedom to be an original. To be Eva. From debut novelist Sangu Mandanna comes the dazzling story of a girl who was always told what she had to be—until she found the strength to decide for herself
Oh hello there! My name is Emily, though some of you may know me as the Bookie Monster. As the name would suggest, I devour books like the Cookie Monster devours cookies. In my spare time, I like to bake cookies (and devour those as well) and dream about taking over the world. As if my book obsession wasn't life consuming enough,
I work in the children's room at my local library and I am currently a sophomore in college majoring in English. It's safe to say I'm a bit of a book fanatic. I discreetly shed a few tears on my eleventh birthday when I did not receive my Hogwarts acceptance letter and I waited seven hours outside in the rain just to get a good seat at the Hunger Games midnight premiere. I'm terrified of blood and Disney movies make me cry (in a good way). My passions include hippos, hugs, and Hans Zimmer…and uh,long walks on the beach. I'm just a normal girl with a slightly abnormal and frightfully expensive obsession. Nice to meet you!

So there is always the question "what are some natural brown lenses?"
Well, here's a post dedicated to that question ^^
First of all, natural lenses are lenses that blend in well with the natural eye color. One that looks "natural" and can pass as one's real eye color... what more can I say? haha
So here they are~ Be ready for loads of pictures xD
I think these lenses are GORGEOUS in design. Hands down. They are natural and give that natural shine and gloss to your iris!
Doesn't it look pretty?? And even though it is a fact that, in this photo, there is bright lighting and all, I can assure you that these lenses are very pretty in real life, up close.
I don't think these can be any more natural, the hyper circle browns look as though you aren't even wearing anything. This is super popular as a natural brown circle lens.
The photo above is a very good representation of how the lens look. However, GEO fresh browns will look slightly darker in normal lighting. The GEO fresh greys also look very natural as grey lenses.
These are also as natural as can be. There is only the difference of the lens' pattern design, but the effect and appearance of the outcome is prettty much of the same. You can see it for yourself:
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Now, among the natural brown lenses, there are those that are considered pretty natural but are less subtle. Here are some:
These were mentioned in the last post about "Popular Gyaru Circle Lens."
Yes, that's right. There is more than one color! You can find them at LensVillage's Website under the Geo Magic Color category.
And finally, there are the tri-color lenses that can pass as a natural eye color, just a tad more vivid and earthy ^^
So that's a wrap! *phew*
There are plenty of lenses other than these that can look natural as well, but these are the few that will come up very often while searching for some natural brown lenses ^^
So I hope this will anyone out there searching for some natural brown lenses!

after inauguration... is that pro-life Supreme nomination. Trump needs (in my opinion) to stiffen his spine on this, because the RINOS - WHO HAVE ALREADY GOT THEIR NOSES UNDER THE TENT - will do everything in their power to force him to nominate another Kennedy - a Catholic who KNOWS BETTER - who let Washington D.C. cocktail party friends turn his head - principally Lawrence Tribe.
I was going to post Pastor Jessie Peterson's article (today at wnd), but then read the following account of one of our American Hero service men who took his own life last month. I am familiar with the agony these young men go through. I know of 2 such suicides who were friends of friends of mine. My best friend (in Allen Park MI) - her son came back from Iraq with one of his 2 best friends [the other had been blown to smithereens in Iraq]. The other pal of my friend's son shot himself dead within the 1st year back home.
Our middle east vets - possibly worse than our Vietnam vets - have been treated like garbage by both the Dubya AND Obama administrations.
Trump made a lot of pledges to both our vets AND to the millions of pro-lifers who put him over the top. Time to deliver - time to put up or shut up.
And WAY past time to stop licking the boots of his evil opponents. And about seeking the "counsel" of Obama. Prez-elect Trump... read the 1st Psalm over and over until you get it. Don't sit "in the counsel of the ungodly" if you actually don't want your presidency to go down in flames.

Too often busy moms just take care of everyone else. But you shouldn't neglect yourself, especially when looking lovely has never been simpler. Here are a few ways to put beauty back on your to-do list.
Vibrant visage: Smooth on a tinted moisturizer. It acts like foundation, giving you a polished look, and protects your skin from the sun at the same time. Look for one with SPF 15 or higher. And don't forget to thoroughly clean your face at the end of the day.
Bright eyes: Feeling tired? Brush on two coats of curl-enhancing mascara. Long, curled lashes open up eyes and help you look awake in seconds.
Chic cheeks: A light wash of color will make you look fresh-faced all day. Use your fingers to swirl creamy blush directly on the apples of your cheeks. Or try a bronzing blush for a sun-kissed look.
Glossy lips: Keep a tube of tinted lip gloss in your purse. It's a no-fuss alternative to lipstick and looks good even when it fades. If in a rush, then dab a little Vaseline® Petroleum Jelly on lips for a simple sheen.
Luscious locks: For sleek hair, use a smoothing cream to get rid of frizz. Look for a product that goes on both wet and dry hair, so you can use it after the shower and for daytime touch-ups. With curly locks, scrunch a curl-enhancing mousse into wet hair for defined curls that don't need to be blow-dried.
Modern mane: Upgrade your ponytail to a braided bun. Loosely braid hair and twist it into a low chignon at the nape of the neck. Secure with bobby pins.
Decorated do: Ditch the scrunchies and try a wide headband or a scarf to decorate your do instead.
Spa shower: Use a moisture-rich body wash that is rich in aloe and vitamin E, which will hydrate your skin. Or opt for an invigorating scent to boost your energy.
Healthy hands: No time for a manicure? Help prevent chapped hands and ragged cuticles with a non-greasy hand lotion. Carry a travel-size bottle in your purse and apply throughout the day.
All-day fresh: Feel fresh and confident all day with an antiperspirant that keeps you cool and dry. Make sure the product goes on smooth and does not leave marks on your good clothes.
"It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed."
"Envy comes from wanting something that isn't yours. But grief comes from losing something you've already had."

Barton Snyder couldn't put all his eggs into one basket even if he wanted to.
The Allentown man has what is possibly the largest private bird egg collection in North America.
Hal Harrison, author of two of Peterson's field guides and a friend of Snyder, terms it one of the largest. A survey titled "Inventory of Bird Egg Collections of North America, 1985" made by the American Ornithologists Union and published by the University of Oklahoma singles it out as the biggest private collection in North America.

There's tons of airfresheners on the market. Some work, some make it smell like garbage mixed with flowers, some cover up smells for a few minutes then go away. Aroma Trees is awesome at pretty much everything.
It can be used as a air freshener, as a fabric deodorizer, and as a poo-pourri! It comes in a tiny bottle, but 1-2 sprays is enough to take care of anything! The apple scent I got smells like someone just cut open a bag of ripe juicy apples and just put them on the stove. It's heavenly! And the smell hangs around long enough to get rid of any odors and leave a faint fruit smell even a half hour later when used as a room spray.
You can even spray it 3-5 times in the toilet to create a scent layer before you do your business. It doesn't help super strong smells that way, but it works on light odors. I've ditched my other brand name air freshness in the bathroom solely for this one. It works wonders! I highly suggest picking up a bottle and trying it out!
I have received a product at a reduced cost, in exchange for my honest unbiased review. Regardless, all opinions are my own and truthful. I was not compensated in any way other than a discounted product.

The Best Ulysse Nardin Marine Chronometer Manufacture Replica Watch features a crown designed for ease of handling, complete with a rubber notch for comfortable winding. There are two new versions of the 45mm Marine Chronometer.
Powering the two new Marine Chronometers from Ulysse Nardin is the UN-118 caliber, manufactured entirely in house. Created with Silicium and DIAMonSIL, these advanced materials were pioneered by Ulysse Nardin in the first, 2011 version of the Caliber UN-118. Each of the two is adorned with a handsome dial. One in an elegant blue sunburst, offset by white markers and cherry red accents for a style that hints at classicism while retaining a strong contemporary edge.
The other is glossy white lacquered with blue numerals and hands, presenting a chic, maritime aspect. Water-resistant to 200 meters, able to run autonomously for 60 hours, the Ulysse Nardin Marine Replica Watch has a date that can be adjusted either backward or forward. It also benefits from the rigorous testing required to pass the COSC and the Ulysse Nardin Certificate of performance.
The movement represents a significant step forward in the quest for absolute precision in mechanical time-keeping. It brings together the technological advancement of an anchor escapement in DIAMonSil with Ulysse Nardin's own oscillator and patented hairspring.
Regarded as a cornerstone in the brand's development and continued independence, this self-winding caliber offers hours, minutes and direct-drive small seconds. Like every member of the Ulysse Nardin Replica Watch family, the design of the dial is inspired by the early Ulysse Nardin chronometers. It features a power re-serve indicator at 12 o'clock and small seconds at 6 o'clock, positioned next to the date window. Distinctive roman numerals, cathedral hands and a fluted bezel on the stainless steel case mark it as a Marine Chronometer.

Grade: D (For no D)
Doing it at: 69% (sort of…)
Catnip: Doing it with the Boss; Snowed In; Ex-Athlete; Hate Read; Bland Characters; All the Cliches
Shame Scale: It's a non-YA romance without any sex. Like a sandwich with no cheese. It's not really shameful, but I don't know why you'd want to read it
Fantasy Cast: NA
Book Description:
There's no time like the present… Unless you're still running from your past
Executive assistant Emma Taylor is desperate for a little time away; away from her job, her life and from thoughts of her boss's son who doesn't seem to know she even exists. Tired of waiting for the time to be right, she takes advantage of her boss's generous offer for a little weekend getaway to thank her for helping out with a difficult business deal.
Former NFL superstar Lucas Montgomery is still suffering from a career-ending injury. His self-imposed exile from life is exactly what he wants; a sanctuary where there's no chance for disappointment or distractions and that's exactly the way he likes it. While his family has been patiently waiting for Lucas to come around and embrace life once again, they don't realize that it wasn't just his career that was lost, but his sense of identity.
Lucas thought everything was fine until sweet, sexy and completely off-limits Emma Taylor comes crashing into his carefully constructed world one snowy weekend and turns his entire life upside down.
I don't remember how I found this book. I know it was on a list of recommended snowed in titles, but I can't find the original source to properly shame them. I think some of my anger is stemming from the fact that I wasted one of my precious library hold slots on this book for the TWO ENTIRE MONTHS it took to become available. You know how in older soap operas they would show a couple kissing and falling to the bed, then the camera would pan to a candle and they'd cut, and then the next scene would pick up in the morning? That was this book.
Emma works for Lucas's father as a bland and mousey, yet terribly competent, assistant. Lucas is the broody youngest son, who injured his knee – ending his pro-football career, and has been living full-hermit up in the mountains in a picturesque cabin. Lucas's dad has been noticing the "glances" between the two during Lucas's visit into the office each month, so he decides to play matchmaker and send Emma up to his cabin in the middle of a snowstorm.
This is where I would complain about the inappropriateness of one's employer meddling in their love life, but office romance/banging the boss books are catnip for me, so carry on with all of these workplace harassment policy violations please.
Things don't go quite as planned, and Emma ends up crashing her car into a *tiny* ravine in Lucas's yard, and gets a concussion. She wakes up in his house, very confused, and there's a bit about being in heaven and why is god shouting so loud???? that makes me think this book is actually a sneaky Christian romance. This is reinforced quite quickly when Emma and Luke start to get down to it, and then the book picks up the next morning.
"I could lie here all night kissing you, Emma," he said gruffly, "but I'd be lying if I said that was all I wanted to do."
She smiled with womanly satisfaction. "What is it that you want to do, Lucas?" she whispered, and then let out a squeal of delight as he switched their positions again so she was on her back beneath him.
"I'm not really good with words, Emma," he said with a wicked smile. "I'm more of a man of action."
Emma found that she could easily live with that.
Chapter 8
There was nothing like a good full body stretch when waking up. Emma always found that a great way to start her day. The feel of a very warm, hard male pressed up against her back as she stretched, she decided, was an added perk.
So there I was, fairly engrossed, glad that the book was finally getting past the dumb cliches and bad dialog and on to the good parts (remember, we forgive bad books if they give us good spank material here at Mybookshame), when this happened, and I was all What the shit? I tabbed back and forth between pages a few times to see if it was a glitch, because why would you cut the sex out of what is clearly a romance novel for grownups? I don't know why. Maybe Samantha Chase is targeting the small subset of romance readers who like to order their sandwiches with no cheese.
The rest of the book is lots of implied sex and cliches and misunderstandings. Bla bla bla. I read it to the end, just to make sure nothing good happened. Bottom line, I had to give it a D. It would have gotten the mandatory D- for no D, but it wasn't completely virginal, and there was one brief mention of feeling a clothed "arousal" which is a D of sorts, I guess?
Plus side: Now I know the title of a book I can throw out there when someone like my mother in law asks for a romance recommendation, or if my dentist asks what I'm reading and I'm eyes deep in something like A Forbidden Rumspringa.

Editor's Note: Linux in the Jobs Market
Linux Jobs are Plentiful
When economists want an indicator of how an economy is performing, they run through various statistical measures (unemployment rates, consumer spending, tax payments, et al.)--and then they add one not-so-scientific measure: how many want ads are appearing in the daily newspaper.
The reasoning is simple; if the economy is going well, then companies will be looking to fill positions, and the best way to reach a mass audience is via the classified advertising. If there's a collective bad feeling about the economy, then companies will be more conservative in creating jobs.
Simple stuff, really. We could also apply the same principles to see how healthy the Linux economy is; by perusing the job listings of several large Internet job-postings sites, we can judge the state of the Linux economy and decide whether Linux is still in start-up mode or is now a major player in the computer world.
There are several help-wanted sites on the Internet today. Most are geared toward technical jobs--because, after all, most technical types are on the Internet in some form or another--and so they're a ripe place to see who's hiring who for Linux-related jobs.
Search the largest help-wanted sites on the Internet and you'll see a plethora of such listings. A search at monster.com is limited to 1,000 matches, so there's no way to tell exactly how many Linux jobs are listed, as you'll reach the limit of 1,000 returns. The jobs are mostly what you'd expect--analyst, programmer, systems administrator--but there are some surprises, including postings for kernel/device-driver programmers, Python developers and Linux/Oracle administrators. The companies posting the ads are a mix of recruitment firms, pre-IPO startups and established computer-industry players (like Dell). In addition, every level of experience is advertised, ranging from technical interns to IS directors.
Other jobs sites yielded similar results (for instance, there were 675 Linux-related jobs posted at hotjobs.com).
What does this tell us? That there are thousands of Linux-related jobs on the market should tell us that Linux is now mainstream fare for the computing community. Corporations are adopting Linux and treating it on the same level as Windows NT and UNIX. In short, Linux isn't a precious hothouse flower that needs to be nurtured--it's a mainstream operating system.

One doesn't discover new lands without consenting to lose sight of the shore for a very long time.
Andre Gide (1869 – 1951)
I don't think I slept much at all last night. Or, much at all this year come to think of it. I picture what Columbus must have felt as he set to sail. Did he have sleepless nights, wondering where his ship might go?
While Columbus believed the world was round, most people of his Era were sure it was flat. He could have listened to them. He could have silenced his inner belief and followed along. But instead, he chose to sail.
Once on their journey, Columbus and his crew battled starvation, volatile weather and deteriorating ships. Worse yet, his own crew lost faith in the mission and even plotted his death. But they persevered and eventually opened the Eastern world's eyes to a whole new shore.
I know Columbus' treatment of natives makes him a less than worthy role model, but I still find the scenario that surrounds his belief and his journey fascinating. If he can take his belief to the edge of the earth, through every obstacle and rocky condition, then perhaps I can feel a little more secure in my journey. Even when others doubt what I believe. Even when conditions make me nervous. I'll choose to sail.

It has been a busy weekend. Andy and Ed arrived on Friday to help Peter pour the crawlspace floor. They stayed overnight and Larry arrived on Saturday morning. Everyone helped put in the floor joists and the subflooring. Andy and Ed left Saturday afternoon and Larry and Peter finished up the floor. Larry stayed overnight and he and Peter are doing the entry subfloor and the supporting walls in the basement. It sure is nice to have Marinette friends!
Wednesday Andy and Peter are going to pour another section of the basement and Micah will be coming from UW Madison to pour the last section on Friday. Then the last section of floor joists and subflooring will be completed Saturday and Sunday. It really looks like a real house.
Jack Jonkman and Peter formed and poured the basement and crawlspace September 5-9.
It is very energy efficient and straight. It was great to spend time with Jack and see the two of them working together. They probably scared a few New Holstein residents because they both resembled mountain men (both in need of a haircut and shave!)
Micah Thill had been here for about a week as the foundation was dug. He and Peter poured the footings. We took him to college Labor Day. Just in time for my first day of school on the 2nd!
Projected SIPS panel arrival-the week of September 29th.

University applications system 'out of date'
The university entrance system should be switched so students apply after they have their A-level results, says Keele University's vice-chancellor.
Prof Nick Foskett says the current system was designed for an era when many fewer students applied.
Applying before results creates unnecessary uncertainty, he says.
Universities are now "increasingly unclear about how many students they are enrolling just a few weeks before the start of term", he says.
The Ucas admissions service says that students can already apply after their results through the clearing system, which should not be seen as a "last chance saloon".
Hundreds of thousands of young people will receive their exam results this month and will see how this affects their university applications, which have often relied in part upon predicted grades.
Chasing places
But Prof Foskett says that a better system for both students and universities would be to complete the application process only after they knew their exam grades.
He says that students could still visit universities during the previous year and decide where they wanted to apply, but they would be able to make a much more informed, more mature decision, if they could leave the final choice until they knew their grades.
At present, he says young people are "locked into" a system that expects them to make decisions at an early stage.
Young people change a lot during their sixth form years, he says, and it would be better to allow them to decide at a later stage when they were likely to be clearer about understanding the implications of their choices.
He also says that it is a wasteful system when students and universities spend so much time on so many different applications that are made irrelevant when pupils receive their results.
"We're working with a model that is more than 50 years old and was created to accommodate a handful of universities, but now processes tens of thousands of student applications each year," he says.
Relying on predicted grades creates anxiety for students and uncertainty for universities, he says.
When students are facing annual tuition fees of £9,000, he says students need more time to think about their plans, rather than feeling they have to take a back-up place if they do not match the predicted grades needed for their first choice university.
Clearing system
The admissions system is also facing changes from the government's push for a more market-driven approach.
Last year universities could offer more places to students with A-level grades of AAB or better - but when fewer students than expected achieved these grades it left universities with empty places.
This year there will be even more flexibility, with universities able to expand for students who achieve ABB grades.
"Until we know how many students have met their ABB requirements and how universities will respond to those who don't meet these grades, it is always going to be impossible to predict the impact on the sector as a whole," says Prof Foskett.
Instead of the current system, based on predicted grades, he says there should be a so-called "post-qualifications application" system (PQA), where students apply after A-levels.
"It would enable students to make more thoughtful decisions about the next step in their education and could help get them on to their chosen path more quickly, particularly at a time while the rise in tuition fees is making A-level retakes and reapplication more attractive to students than settling for insurance offers."
A major government-commissioned study into university admissions, carried out almost a decade ago, concluded that the switching to applications after exam results would be much fairer.
Many university courses do not interview students and the most significant factor can be the grades predicted by schools - but there were warnings that these predictions are often incorrect.
The government backed calls for a change to a post-qualification system, but this was never implemented.
A subsequent proposal for such a system, put forward by the Ucas admissions service, was also not introduced.
Predicted grades
A spokeswoman for the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills said: "A Ucas review of admissions processes completed last year considered the barriers and benefits to the introduction of a system of post-qualification admissions.
"Based on responses from across the higher education sector Ucas recommended not to move to post-qualification admissions, and we accepted their advice."
The chief executive of Ucas, Mary Curnock Cook, said: "We already have a PQA system - it's called 'clearing'. With changes in the dynamics of admissions to higher education, we are already noticing a shift of perception about clearing.
"It should not be seen as a last chance saloon but a credible application route for all applicants and a serious recruiting opportunity for all types of institutions.
"That said, I'm certain that the predicted grade/conditional offer model will also continue to be used and viable for the foreseeable future."
But Rachel Wenstone, vice-president of the National Union of Students, said that students should be able to apply after their exam results and the NUS had been disappointed with the outcome of the Ucas review.
"The current system benefits those with the support, resources and family experience of higher education, to play the complex and confusing processes," she said.
The UCU lecturers' union said that changing the admissions timetable would be difficult.
"In principle, a post-results system would be desirable. However, at present there are too many issues with a post-results system that would make it difficult to implement," said the union's president, Simon Renton.
"We are seeing more universities getting involved with clearing this year and believe the government's attempt to create a bogus market in higher education has created so much instability and uncertainty."

Hello Readers,
Before I start my discussions with you all, Let me introduce - ironlot.com
Iron Lot sells both aluminum trench boxes and steel trench boxes. They feature the full line of the Kundel Trench Shoring Safety Equipment. Our aluminum products include, Trenshore Hydraulic Shoring, and the ShoreLite Aluminum Trench Box Series.
In addition to their aluminum trench shields, our steel products include the Titan Trench Box Series, and Titan Bedding Boxes.
Trenches are very common on many construction and engineering sites. They are used for the laying of pipes, telephone lines and many other constructions. Digging trenches is a necessary part of construction and engineering work, while some are very shallow others can be deep. Depending on the soil quality the walls of the trenches will only support themselves for a limited amount of time. A Trench box is of aluminium or steel construction that secures the walls of the trench to make it safe for work to be carried out without risk of the walls collapsing with people or equipment trapped within. Other names for these structures would be manhole boxes, trench shields, sewer boxes or tap boxes.
Before an excavation begins a full risk assessment of the site is required to highlight any potential risks, the equipment required and the staffing required. Does the site require additional access?
Then the trench itself needs be considered. How big does the trench need to be, how deep? Trenches over 5 foot need support either from sloping, shoring or trench box. However if it's over 20 foot deep the support for the side of the trench needs to be designed by a registered professional engineer. How will the trench be accessed? by ladders, steps or does it need a ramp? There should be safe access within 25 feet of workers at all times, in case of emergencies. There may also be the need to test the atmosphere in the trench for low oxygen levels or toxic gases. Trench boxes are articulated to allow for easy installation; however this makes it unsafe to stack the boxes on top of each other.
A number of factors determine the stand-up time that an individual trench will have. Stand-up time is the amount of time that it generally takes for the walls to cave in after the trench is dug. Soil quality and composition, humidity, local weather conditions, climate and other factors can change the stand-up time, and using safety equipment like trench boxes will allow for much more time for workers to perform their duties before any structural problems are encountered. They will also keep the workers from experiencing the worst effects of a cave-in, giving them time to get out or even allowing them to continue working if the cave-in is minor.
These shields work in a very simple way, by providing a solid wall for the trench and the support infrastructure necessary to keep that wall in place. The walls are made out of heavy-duty aluminum or stainless steel, and they can be ordered in various thicknesses that are depth-rated so that you know what you can safely use them for. This is very helpful when deciding exactly what kind of trench shield you need to get the job done.
There are multiple uses for trench boxes in the engineering and construction industries. From residential repair work to extensive construction projects, aluminum trench shields are crucial at many of these work site. Trench boxes, also known as trench shields, can be used by municipalities to perform repair work and maintenance for the city. Trench shields allow the workers to get the job done safely, more quickly, and more affordably than they would otherwise. It causes minimal damage to the sidewalks, lawn, streets, and existing pipes and utilities. Boxes made of aluminum are lightweight, making them easy to be used in conjunction with rubber-tired backhoes.
Aluminum trench boxes are used for manhole installation. Lightweight aluminum shields surround the trench walls that have been created to construct manholes. They also provide a clear work area for building and excavating the manhole. Utility contractors also use aluminum trench shields in the field when laying wire or working underground.

So since last time I have been working on the face of my character. I have mostly the face done, but the mouth has been giving me a lot of problems. I have the general outline done, but I still have to do some tweaking to get it just right.
Hopefully by next time I will have all the face done and maybe even the ears. Anyways, thanks for reading!

what's that? you like grey?
pattern: Le Slouch by Wendy Bernard
yarn: Patons Classic merino in dark grey
needles: 4.5 mm Addis Turbos
First off I have to assert that even though I am totally into (even as a little girl to which my mother can attest...) "matchy-matchy sets of things" (actually I think this may well be a family trait handed down from my Nana...) I still am obliged to tell you that I would in fact NEVER wear that grey seed stitch vest at the same time as what has turned out to be it's matching hat. It's not even the same yarn as said vest --though you'd never know it to look at those two things.
(image deleted)
I love this hat/pattern. I am all about the snoody/slouchy hats right now. I made this beret earlier this year in a less than stellar yarn choice so I'm much happier with the results this go round and have already gotten lots of wear out of it.
"hmmmmm, methinks I need something similar in orange...you know for the fall" Well that's what I think this tired 7am face is saying:
(image deleted)
Want a sneak preview? Well, you can't suckers because this photo is virtually in darkness.
So I'll save Snood #2 for another entry. Plus, give me a break, I need the blog fodder.
It's been an absolutely glorious fall here so we drove up to Prince Edward County on the weekend to enjoy the fall colours and a little knitting on the beach.
(image deleted)
As well as an impromptu slouch (and foliage to come) photoshoot (sorry, I know, photo overload!) But it was such a gorgeous day that we couldn't resist.
My BFF from California is here in a couple days, which means a week long vay-cay for me, and I am SO ready. Hopefully I'll have time to post again before she gets here because I don't think there will be much knitting happening while she's here...just drinking. And shopping. And eating out. And the giving of baby knits to my other BFF. Really it's all win-win.

Marks: 50% of the overall assessment for the course
Submission: Online via Moodle
Format: One file in .doc or .docx (MSWord) format.
Submissions in any other file format (e.g. .zip) will be treated as a nonsubmission.
Word limit: 3000 words
Due date: Week 12 Wednesday (04-Oct-2017) 04:00 PM AEST

Extensions policy: The university policy on extensions of time will be strictly
enforced. Extensions will only be considered if made via the online system
and based on medical or compassionate grounds. Any extension application
should be made before the due date for submission. Medical conditions
should be supported by a medical certificate, and, since students are
expected to start the assignment early, temporary or last-minute conditions
are usually not grounds for an extension. Professionals are expected to
manage their time to meet their obligations, so work or personal commitments
are insufficient grounds for an extension.
Plagiarism: The university's plagiarism policy will also be strictly enforced. If
plagiarism is found, a minimum penalty is likely to be zero marks for the
assessment. It could be worse.
Question 1: 25 marks, 25% of the subject

QUESTION 2: 25 marks, 25% of the subject
Compare and contrast how international commercial disputes are resolved in

The assignment will be assessed according to the following criteria:
~ accuracy, detail and comprehension of the legal issues (20%)

WarpPLS 4.0 now available: 3D graphs, new fit indices, causality assessment coefficients, and more!
Dear colleagues:
Version 4.0 of WarpPLS is now available, as a beta version. You can download and install it for a free trial from:
The full User Manual is also available for download from the web site above separately from the software.
Some important notes for users of previous versions:
- There is no need to uninstall previous versions of WarpPLS to be able to install and use this new version.
- Users of previous versions can use the same license information that they already have; it will work for version 4.0 for the remainder of their license periods.
- Project files generated with previous versions are automatically converted to version 4.0 project files. Users are notified of that by the software, and given the opportunity not to convert the files if they so wish.
- The MATLAB Compiler Runtime 7.14, used in this version, is the same as the one used in versions 2.0-3.0. Therefore, if you already have one of those versions of WarpPLS installed on your computer, you should not reinstall the Runtime.
WarpPLS is a powerful PLS-based structural equation modeling (SEM) software. Since its first release in 2009, its user base has grown steadily, now comprising more than 5,000 users in over 33 countries.
Some of its most distinguishing features are the following:
- It is very easy to use, with a step-by-step user interface guide.
- It identifies nonlinear relationships, and estimates path coefficients accordingly.
- It also models linear relationships, using standard PLS algorithms.
- It models reflective and formative variables, as well as moderating effects.
- It calculates P values, model fit indices, and collinearity estimates.
At the beginning of the User Manual you will see a list of new features in this version, some of which are listed below. The User Manual has more details on how these new features can be useful in SEM analyses.
- Users can now set inner and outer model algorithms separately, and are also allowed to set inner model algorithms for individual paths.
- New causality assessment coefficients are now reported, which can be used in the assessment of the plausibility and direction of hypothesized cause-effect relationships.
- Seven new model fit and quality indices have been added to the three previously available, bringing the total number of indices to ten.
- Many new graphs and related features are now available, including 3D graphs. Both multivariate and bivariate relationship graphs are now provided, for linear and nonlinear relationships, using standardized and unstandardized scales.
- Users can now segment curves based on increments in the first derivative of the predictor latent variables on each of their criteria latent variables. This provides an alternative to data segmentation approaches such as FIMIX-PLS, without any reduction in sample size.

I have the following para from William Ophuls' 70-page book "Immoderate Greatness - why civilizations fail" to share with all. Now I know proud men never reads a single book in his life, still he owes it to himself at the end of his life to do some reflection to see if what he has left behind will really outlast him? And if he really cannot read, ask his dog kish mabu to read him a few pages each nite, sure to finish before he kicks the bucket, I think...
"Probably the greatest agreement among scholars, though, is that the failing civilizations suffered from growing hubris and overconfidence: the belief that their capabilities after many earlier tests would always rise to the occasion and that growing signs of weakness could be ignored"

When Yaacob Ibrahim said: "I think it is important for us to ensure that they (ordinary Singaporeans) read the RIGHT thing" ... I am reminded of the
following words from the old fart:
"I am often accused of interfering in the private lives of citizens. Yes, if I did not, had I not done that, we wouldn't be here today. And I say without the slightest remorse, that we wouldn't be here, we would not have made economic progress, if we had not intervened on very personal matters - who your neighbour is, how you live, the noise you make, how you spit, or what language you use. We decide what is right. Never mind what the people think."Replies

Yeah right. What your enemy has accused you is that your people (citizens) has beome afraid to speak their mind, you retard! And that is a good reflection of you and your legacy for the last 45 years. The karma is turning around now.

Sportsbook Sportsbook
Only couple of decades back, betting on games, which you were not aware of, was considered a huge risk. There were possibilities of you losing out on your entire winning of the day, if the team or player, which you chose, lost.

It is not only easy for you to bet on the game of your liking, but you can also be aware of the games, which you are betting on, in a matter of minutes.

As I was searching the net looking to share a few interesting information about fashion and photography, I came across these guys fashion photography blogs
I found many of their advice and blogs very useful; here is a good example of one of them:
- Fashionista.com I love these guys! I keep up on the latest trends in the fashion industry, which is SO important as a fashion photographer, with their latest posts. The thing I love about fashionista.com is their writers! This is not your average, run of the mill, dry and bland fashion news reporting. I do not know any of their staff but I can tell that they love their jobs, they LOVE fashion and they know their shit! I trust their input and their feedback. They weed out the useless boring updates and inform on only what really needs to be reported on.
- Style.com Personally, folks, this site is where I find out what all the designers are doing. When I hear a stylist suggest a designer, say, Gareth Pugh, and I can't bring a visual picture into my head of what Gareth has done, I go to Style.com, enter Gareth Pugh in the search window and then click on all of Gareth's shows. It's a very useful resource site to find any designer and their collections. Important when communicating with your stylists and editors.
- Lightroom-Blog.com Okay, I know Sean McCormack through Twitter, but this guy runs the most comprehensive and informative site on lightroom out there. And he's been doing it for a few years. While I save the real digital tech stuff to my pro team, don't think for a minute that I turn a blind eye to all of it. Of course not, I sneak and read what I can on the digital medium. This site lays it out so well that even someone like me who sort of still resists digital can navigate my way around the site and find information that actually makes sense and helps me.
- DPS.com Otherwise known as Digital Photography School. It's a full blown information HEAVY site for all things digital photography. How to shoot better portraits, how to market your wedding photography business, how to use photoshop plug ins. I mean, you want to know about anything digital photography, go there. I visit this site just to learn MORE about my medium. It's constantly about learning! It never ends. DPS.com is a great resource for learning!
- Fashion.net This site has everything! It's Super Information Fashion Highway. Seriously I don't know why I'm listing them, they refuse to link to my blog, but hey, I'm being honest here. They have links upon links. To magazines, blogs, designers, books, modeling agencies, fashion weeks around the world, photo reps, etc. etc. They really are a great library of sites for fashion photography and it's business.
- X-Equals.com Another great site chock full of information on digital post production. Brandon covers everything from best tips for archiving to the latest photoshop feature and getting around the complexity of it all. Brandon is a virtual friend. We have never met but I wouldn't endorse a site that I didn't believe in as well. I visit plenty of websites, I don't need to share them all.

High-end, super-light and carbon components require precision tightening during set-up and adjustment. Bontrager's Preset Torque Wrench is a 4mm Allen torque wrench preset to 5 Newton meters so that you can tighten many stems, bars and seatposts accurately. This prevents damage from over tightening.

Jason Chaffetz, a GOP Representative, is looking to fire federal employees who owe back taxes. He has proposed a bill that will not only terminate federal employees for being tax evaders, but will also keep "tax scofflaws" from being hired by the federal government in the first place.
Chaffetz emphasizes that the Federal citizen employees "draw their compensation and funds from the American taxpayers (so) they owe it to the taxpayers themselves to be compliant."
According to data provided by the IRS, about 100,000 federal employees owed a total of nearly $1 billion in unpaid federal income taxes in 2009 alone.
The bill specifically targets those with tax liens and will exempt those who are on a plan to repay taxes or are military personnel.
The House voted on the bill Tuesday, July 31 and it passed by a vote of 263 to 114. It will now be sent to the Senate.
