0.430021 | 2.934191 | -1 | 4 Core Beliefs Of Successful People Rory MacLeod Success is
based on action, and actions are the result of beliefs, notes
Dharmesh Shah, founder of HubSpot, in a recent LinkedIn post.
He outlines 10 things he says almost all successful people
believe. Here are a few of our favorites: "Success is often
the result of perseverance," Shah says. "When the first person
to the game stops trying, stops striving, or starts compromising
their principles and values, the person who relentlessly seeks
perfection is the person who wins." So, don't worry about being
the first one in. "Focus on being the best one still in the
game." "I don't know anyone who has accomplished something
amazing on his or her own," he says. "Great leaders focus on
providing the tools and training to help their team do their
jobs and achieve their goals." When you're "in it" only for
yourself, initial success is always limited - and often short-
lived. "When you're in it for others, they succeed - and so do
you." "The downside of the e |

noticed that I've started taking a more personal approach to the
stories I share with you. And to my surprise, this has had some
unintended consequences. I do my best to share stories with
happy endings, but unfortunately, a lot of those stories do
begin with a tragedy. Although I certainly felt pain and anger
when I reported stories of abuse and neglect, writing those
stories as "straight news" allowed me to put an emotional buffer
in place as I made those articles as impartial and factually
based as I could. But being more of a blogger and less of a

we knew there were other accurate yet easy ways of telling that

get this out of the way right off the bat. For the specific task
microwaves excel at, they’re much more efficient than stove tops
and ovens. The basic stats on energy use prove this to be the
case. However, the savings are relatively small. Per comparable
use (one hour in the oven versus fifteen minutes on the stovetop
or in the microwave), you’re saving on the order of 1 to 1.5 kW
by using the microwave – a savings of about $0.20 per hour of
stovetop use, in other words. In truth, though, the savings are
bigger than that. Let’s dig in a little deeper. Don't Use the
Stove when the Microwave Will Do (20/365) The one task that
microwaves really excel at is bringing water to a boil. They can
do this much faster than virtually anything else in your home

incredibly expensive investment). I can bring a few cups of

vegetation, creating slightly acidic water. When this water
reaches the limestone aquifer, it moves through spaces and
cracks slowly dissolving the limestone and creating a network of
cavities and voids. As the limestone dissolves, pores and cracks
are enlarged and carry even more acidic water. Water not only
contributes to the chemical dissolving of the limestone but it
also affects the support or lack of support provided to a cavity
when the water level changes. A sinkhole is formed when the land
surface above a cavity collapses or sinks into the cavity or
when surface materials are carried downward into the voids. A
natural drought or the pumping too much groundwater can leave
underground cavities empty. This can make conditions favorable
for sinkholes to form. Also, heavy rains following a drought
often cause enough pressure on the ground to create sinkholes.

violate the U.S. Constitution? Judge Greg Galler Guest
Columnist The role of the courts has received a lot of
attention following hearings at the U.S. Supreme Court regarding
the law commonly known as “Obamacare.” Many, including the
president, have discussed something called “judicial review.”
Judicial review refers to a power held by the courts to decide
if a law violates the U.S. Constitution or not. If the law
violates the constitution, the courts will “strike down” the law
declaring it invalid. Perhaps ironically, the court’s power to
declare a law to be unconstitutional is not specifically
addressed in the U.S. Constitution. Instead, it is considered to
be an inherent power of the courts. The U. S. Supreme Court
first declared a law to be unconstitutional in 1803 in a case
known as Marbury vs. Madison. In that case, Chief Justice John
Marshall described and outlined the power of judicial review by

Black Widow was the one who was able to figure out what Loki's

traffic and was able to inform the other Avengers where they

being extremely skilled at what he does, has no special ability

number of specific scientific issues that must be considered as
conjugate vaccines continue along the development pipeline. For
instance, researchers need to determine how many pneumococcal
polysaccharide antigens can be incorporated into a single
vaccine using the same carrier proteins. They would also like to
know what sorts of immunization schedules and routes of
immunization will be most practical. Another important question
is whether more than one type of protein carrier can be combined
into one vaccine for several diseases (for example, Hib

it's how hard it is to feel judged by others. When you have
kids, your whole life changes and most (if not all) of the
decisions you make in life take another little person (or
people) into consideration. I spend most of my day caring for my
kids, trying to make sure their needs are met and they are
growing up to be good individuals. So the last thing I want to
hear is that I'm doing something wrong that's going to
negatively impact them for the rest of their lives. It's hard to
take criticism about your parenting skills, but that's what a
lot of people feel when their child's weight comes into

James is one of the 100 most famous people on Earth. We can
agree on this, right? Basketball is the world's second- or
third-most popular team sport (behind soccer and cricket), and
LeBron is, at worst, its third-most famous player (behind Kobe
Bryant and possibly Yao Ming). So one wonders: Why, exactly,
does he feel the need to host parties in Kansas City,
Philadelphia, Miami and, on Thursday, The Venue in Clearwater?
He doesn't need the money. Doesn't need to boost his Q rating.
Doesn't need the hassle, frankly, of looking like he's partying
too much off the court. So, taking all that into consideration,
it's probably no surprise LeBron skipped out on his planned
appearance at Thursday's "Dawn of a Dynasty" party, where a
smattering of fans had paid between $30 and $100 for the chance
to party with the King. Why didn't he show? Your guess is as

The first wave of Muslims to arrive in Sri Lanka came from West
Asia. Therefore let us briefly look at the Muslim achievements
in West Asia. Islam originated in the Arab Peninsula, where the
Prophet Mohammed preached in 622 AD. Islamic religious teachings
are held in the Koran and the Islamic social life is guided by
the Islamic Sharia Law. The Arabs, once converted to Islam, went
on an expansionist spree which eventually swallowed up Egypt,
Syria, Persia, Iraq and finally, in 711 AD, Spain. Virtually all
those countries had their own civilisations prior to
Islamisation. Persia had developed the Persian script and had
the Zoroastrian religion. But they all converted to Islam and
accepted the Arabic language. By the end of the 8th century, the
Islamic empire extended from Persia to Spain and included parts
of Northern Africa as well. There were two political centres.

greatest fame when they performed the music of a fictional band

question: Who wrote the first novel on a word processor. Though
her original Times's story suggested some big names who were
likely candidates, the paper's Jennifer Schuessler followed up
with a Tuesday morning blog post, linking Kirschenbaum's
theories with the Times readers stories. The post is
inconclusive about the answer to the big question of who wrote
the first book on a word processor, but we've been able to
compile a list of likely candidates. Spoiler: a lot of them are
science fiction writers. Read the full story at The Atlantic

landlords, knowledge is power August 24, 2013 The occasional
landlord-tenant dispute is to be expected in a town like
Lawrence, where more than half of all housing units are occupied
by renters. Landlords must trust relative strangers to take
care of their property, and renters can feel helpless if a
problem arises in their homes. While the city’s proposed rental-
unit inspection program aims to mediate some of the landlord-
tenant tension, complicated leases still can lead to confusion
about who is responsible for what. The best advice for everyone:
Know the law and your rights. ‘As a tenant, I have rights.’
Recent Kansas University graduate Jenna Jakowatz spent part of
her last months in Lawrence researching state rental laws. Since

Katia Hetter Not long after John Kennedy entered the White
House in 1961, his sister Eunice Kennedy Shriver began one of
the most heartfelt campaigns any Kennedy ever undertook. She
argued to family members that it would be immensely helpful if
they revealed one of their most closely guarded secrets: that
one of their own, the president's sister Rosemary, was mentally
retarded. It took more than a year to bring the idea to
fruition, and it finally won sanction after the clan's two
central figures blessed it: Patriarch Joseph Kennedy made clear
he could live with the disclosure as long as President Kennedy

thousands for a home that's not been used in years. What's worth
is they can't get an answer as to why it's so high. The

MIAMI -- Cole Hamels probably had it right Monday when he
stormed out of the visitors' clubhouse at Marlins Park without a
word. If he had spoken candidly, imagine what he might have
said? The Phillies lost to the lowly Marlins, 5-1, so there
could have been any number of things on his mind. It could have
been the fact the Phils lost for the fourth time to a team on
pace to finish 46-116. It could have been the fact Philadelphia
is 1-9 in his starts or the offense has scored two or fewer runs
in 40 percent of its games, or maybe that the Marlins, who have
a historically anemic offense, scored five runs against them.
It could have been any numbers of things. "I think it's a lot
of tight ballgames, his contract," Phillies pitching coach Rich

2.07371 | 8.64852 | -1 | In basic (that is to say, one-dimensional) calculus, a function
is a rule that assigns to every real number in its domain some
other real number. It is under this framework that certain
essential terms (continuous and differentiable functions, for
example) are defined. When moving from one-variable calculus to
multivariable calculus, we wish to preserve as many of these
concepts as possible. Unfortunately, many of these concepts are
defined in a way that assumes implicitly that the output of a
function will be a single real number. In order to generalize
these concepts, we can introduce the concept of a component
function. If f is a function that maps a set of points A in Rn
to points in Rm, the ith component function of f, denoted fi, is
defined as follows: For all points x in A, if f(x) = (a1, ... ,
am), then fi(x) = ai. To put it another way, f(x) = (f1(x), ...
, fm(x)) for all points x in A. Therefore, the range of these
component functions lies in R. Example: If f(x,y) = (2x + y,

defectors are women. What awaits them across the border is not a

cytokine produced by regulatory, but not effector, T-cells and
plays a role in immune suppression. It is a dimeric protein
composed of IL-12α and IL-27β chains, which are encoded by two
separate genes called IL12A and EBI3, respectively. Secreted by
regulatory T-cells (Tregs), IL-35 suppresses inflammatory
responses of immune cells. IL-35 is not constitutively expressed
in tissues, but the gene encoding IL-35 is transcribed by
vascular endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells and monocytes
after activation with proinflammatory stimuli. [1] Studies in
mice show the absence of either IL-35 chain from regulatory
Tregs reduces the cells' ability to suppress inflammation; this
has been observed during cell culture experiments and using an

Companies: Watch Out for the 500 Shareholder Rule There has
been a trend for domestic companies to remain private longer
instead of rushing to an IPO (good recent example is Facebook).
It is not surprising, given the high costs associated with legal
and accounting compliance. Also, there is now a way to obtain
financing and provide liquidity in the secondary market without
being public. For example, this can be done through companies
like SecondMarket, which provide a trading platform for resales
of stock and other financial instruments issued by private
companies. There is a concern, however, that companies may
accidentally become “public” by triggering the 500 shareholder
rule. This may happen if, for example, shareholders grant or
sell some of their shares to others, thus increasing the total
number of shareholders. It may be difficult for a company to
control, unless it imposes stringent buy-sell restrictions in

orange juice. Just like the Beatles' "In My Life" is used to
sell mattresses — mattresses. Is nothing sacred? Oh, I know.
All sorts of quality rockers sell stuff with their music. Bono
— Mr. Social Consciousness — sells iPads. John Mellencamp — Mr.
Man of the People — sells Chevys. Even Bob Dylan — Mr. Voice of
a Generation, or two, or three — sells Victoria's Secret, and
Pepsi. And, yes, Michael Jackson bought most of the Beatles
catalogue, much to the dismay of the Beatles and their
survivors. That's why other Beatles songs that Jackson bought,
like "Revolution," have been used to sell stuff like sneakers.
But c'mon. Lennon and McCartney didn't write those songs to sell
OJ or mattresses. As Paul McCartney said after "Revolution" was
used to sell those |
1.514142 | -0.678466 | -1 | Mar 22, 2010 Cinical Realism and Modern Chinese Art In 1985,
Chinese art saw the emergence of a new set of rebelling artists
led by Xu Bing. Between 1985 to 1988 China produced many good
artists and many new ways of looking at art. But this movement
was very short lived. The 1985 Movemet soon gave place to the
phase of Cynical Realism which continues to afflict the Chinese
Art. Xu Bings Scroll depicting 4000 senseless Chinese
characters heralded the begining of New Wave in Chinese Art
Liberalization of Chinese Economy had brought in a lot of
western attention to Chinese Art and soon Chinese art galleries
started to cater to the needs of this new set of buyers. Most of
these art works showed cynicism about Chinese administration.
This apparent rebelling style started with a lot of promise and
appeared that it would soon surpass the popularity of the
previous 85 Movement. Cynical Realism started with a bang, but
very soon lost all its steam. It always sold, but it lost all
its charge. They painted predomin |

Log.i(TAG, "stroke style: " + paint.getStyle()); Log.i(TAG,
"stroke cap: " + paint.getStrokeCap()); canvas.drawPoint(p.x,
p.y, paint); prints 'STROKE' and 'ROUND' to the logs, but draws
a black SQUARE to the map! Anyone know what I need to be doing
differently to produce a dot instead of a square!? EDIT I'm
going to give the below suggestion(s) of using drawCircle a
shot, but I was just confused I guess because everything I've
read indicates you should be able to indicate you want a circle
that way. One example being this google book entry

and not for Shapes. – S.D. Feb 25 '13 at 18:46 3 Answers 3 up
vote 0 down vote accepted you can try drawCircle() with p.x and
p.y as center (first and second argument) and use 1 or 2 as
radius depend on how big you want the dot to be and use the
paint with stroke style FILL.. share|improve this answer Try
to use drawCircle instead circlePain |

enterprises have switched over to Active Directory because it's
not possible to run a large Windows shop without it." Last time
I checked, many Fortune 1000 companies were still eDirectory (or
even NDS) shops or remained NT Domain shops. We have Windows
2000 but stuck with the NT Domain model. It wasn't important
anyways as we have Novell's directory service in play and use
Novell Account Manager to manage both NDS/eDirectory and the NT
Domain model. NAM will also manage UNIX PAM and Windows
ActiveDirectory services. Using other Novell tools such as
DirXML we can control just about anything. Microsoft's
equivalent is more of an "uberdirectory" than a metadirectory.
In that, the data is controlled and stored in AD rather than
sync'd as in eDirectory with the other services. This means that

to lose weight Posted Jan 29 2008 10:04am Don't skip snacks
during a long bike ride or other hard exercise, even if weight
loss is your goal. You will need to eat food or drink sugared
beverages to be able to ride long enough to burn significant
calories and lose weight. Your muscles need a constant supply of
sugar to keep you going. Cyclists who do not eat run out of
their stored muscle sugar in about two hours. When you run out
of stored muscles sugar, your muscles hurt and you lose
coordination. You will not be able to ride fast because when
your muscles run out of their stored sugar, they use fat for
energy. Fat is not an efficient source of energy for exercising
intensely. You will ride much faster when your muscles are full
of sugar. Intense exercise helps you to burn extra calories
after you finish your ride. Taking food or sugared drinks during
a ride will allow you to exercise |
-2.768877 | 4.777903 | -1 | After this item, on Friday, about speculation that the Chinese
government might stonewall and refuse even the slightest gesture
toward revaluing its RMB currency; and this news, yesterday,
that at least some "flexibility" will resume, here's a note from
Damien Ma, of the Eurasia Group. He's the one with whom I've had
several video "China Today" discussions, of which there will be
more shortly. He writes: I think this was ultimately a
political decision, and was in some way a signal of the mutual
leverage between the US and China. There was a time during the
depths of the economic crisis when the currency peg had a
decidedly economic logic, but I think once they saw their 1Q GDP
was growing at 12%, that turned the corner on thinking. The
argument [inside China] had always been between the exporters
and the inflation hawks (the liberal financial set in the
central bank, think tanks, et al). The exporters quickly lost
their support when the emphasis shifted to inflation and
overheating. Of course, the eurozone |

Comicbook: The Falcon So wait, who's Falcon and who's Redwing
again? Samuel Thomas "Sam" Wilson also known as The Falcon is a
Marvel Comics superhero introduced in Captain America #117
(September 1969). Born and raised in Harlem, New York, Sam was
initially a happy child who was quite fond of birds. As a teen,
his experiences with racism and his parents' deaths made him
bitter, jaded and angry. Leaving his past behind him, he becomes
"Snap" Wilson, a professional criminal, gang member, and pimp.
While traveling to Rio de Janeiro, he purchases a pet falcon and
names it Redwing. Attempting to hijack a plane filled with
laundered money, Snap crashed it into the Isle of Exiles. Snap
and Redwing are found by the Red Skull. Red Skull uses the
Cosmic Cube to alter Snap's memory, from being a criminal and
pimp to social worker. The cube also gives him an empathic link
with Redwing, giving him an ability to communicate with him

(Interscope) (STAR)(STAR)(STAR) 1/2 The debt to the Pixies'
"Surfer Rosa" and Nirvana's "Nevermind" is obvious, which keeps
this whip-lash disc from drawing even higher praise. But there
isn't a dead spot to be found, as guitars and drums rampage from
peak to peak in filler-free two- and three-minute bursts. What
keeps this from becoming alterna-rock parody, on the order of
Stone Temple Pilots' Seattle homage, is the songwriting: A
chance discovery is turned into a haunting meditation
("Rapejacket"), while "Domestique" and "Eating" concisely
illuminate paranoia and obsession. |

Tasting Room Daily, Tours 11am, 1 & 3 pm. (tour charge) Current
Production 85,000 acres Vineyard Size 865 acres property, 420
acres in vines The origin of Santo Tomas is inextricably tied to
the Spanish mission movement in Mexico. Whenever a new mission
was established in the New World, vineyards were planted and
sacramental wine was made. By the time they decided to found a
mission just south of Ensenada, the Dominican order was in
charge. In 1791 they named it the Mission of Saint Tomas
Aquinas, located in what is today the Valle de Santo Tomas. This
valley turned out to be a very favorable location for both the
mission and sacramental wine production. In 1857, the Mexican
government expropriated all church property and the land was
sold off. In 1888 it was bought by two Ensenada businessmen, Don
Francisco de Andonegui and Don Miguel Ormart, who founded
