It is natural to have many questions about your surgery. It is important that you have all your queries answered before proceeding with an operation. Below,Remember that your physician i his or her evaluation of your needs.
Yes - Mr Soldin bills for his time. Initial consultations are billed at £235 - £250 depending on consultation length.
Will I be charged for follow-up visits and treatments?
Yes - Follow up consultations are billed at £175 usually.
Charges for treatment.
Insurance claims for treatment.
If you are planning on claiming from your insurance for your treatment, it is best to await a formal quote ( with insurance codes ) that you can forward to your medical insurance in advance of any treatments. Not all insurance companies cover the full costs of care. It is your responsibility to settle any bills, so please confirm with your insurance before treatment begins.
Can I see examples of Mr Soldin's work?
Yes. Mr Soldin has pre- and post-operative photographs of his work on this site. There is also a testimonial section worth reading. Additionally some patients have agreed to chat to prospective patients about their treatment.
Mr Soldin does all procedures. During longer operations he leads a team of nurses and surgeons. In these situations some of the surgery ( suturing for example ) may be done by other surgeons. There is often a registrar who also helps during the operation. The aim is to shorten the length of the anaesthetic and make your operation as safe as possible.
It is usually possible to have your surgery within a month to six weeks after your first consultation.
Are the hospitals regulated?
All hospitals used by Mr Soldin are registered with their local Health Authority. They are regulated by and comply with the National Care Standards Act.
No surgery is without risk; these will be carefully explained to you by Mr Soldin. He believes in an absolute duty of care to his patients and at no time after your surgery will you not be able to contact either Mr Soldin or the hospital where you had your surgery. He also has extensive contacts with colleagues in both the private sector and the NHS if any more complex help were needed.

Disclaimer: I do not know very much about the ant species of Australia. My studies tend to be restricted to those found in the UK. I do have a book entitled Australian Ants: Their Biology and Identification. It was written by Steve. O. Shattuck and published in 1999 by CSIRO. Therefore, I have taken the information that follows from that publication. I will do my best to check for any updates on Australian species of ant from the Internet. Photographs of ants appearing on this page belong to Alex Wild.
However, since his 1999 publication, the number of ant genera in Australia has indeed increased and now stands at 12. This is due not only to the discovery of more but also the reclassification of some genera.
Despite Australia being a large country, much of its ant distribution seems to occur around the “edges” of the country. The most ant-populated region is 66, or more, genera). The eastern coast of Australia as a whole and down to the south-eastern regions also have high genera numbers. Adelaide appears to have between 41-50 ant genera.
Obviously, I cannot describe all the species of ant found in Australia. However, I thought I would h
A large species of ant found in Australia, with the smallest specimen being 8mm in length. There are 90 species and sub-species in 2 genera; Myrmecia and Nothomyrmecia. Both genera are similar in form and cannot be mistaken for any other of the ants of Australia. Myrmecia has long straight mandibles, large eyes and is often brightly coloured. Nothomyrmecia is a pale-yellow colour. Nothomyrmecia used to be in a separate sub-family (Nothomyrmeciinae) but is now reclassed into the Myrmeciinae sub-family. There are only one species of Nothomyrmecia in Australia (N. macrops).
Myrmecia have easily recognisable mandibles. The mandibles have teeth along the entire length of the inner margin. The mandibles of Nothomyrmecia, although straight, are not as sabre-like as those of Myrmecia.
Myrmecia is often known as; Bull ant, Bulldog ant, and Jack Jumper. They are an aggressive ant (hence the name “Bulldog”) and will ferociously defend their nests. Some species of this genus of Australian ants can also jump, giving rise to the name “Jack Jumpers”. They have well-developed eyesight and a powerful sting.
The queens of Myrmecia tend to be large and winged. However, there are some species in which the queens are ergatoid (meaning they are wingless and worker-like in appearance).
Myrmecia is most abundant in the south of Australia.
For this genus of Australian ants, I will describe the species R. metallica.
R. metallicasuch as yards, parks, and gardens. They feed on a wide range of foodstuffs, from honeydew to insects and arthropods. Some species will also gather seeds. Those in hot arid regions forage during the evening or at night when it’s cooler. Whereas those in more temperate regions will forage throughout the day. They tend to forage individually or in small numbers.
Rhytidoponera nest in the ground, either in the open, such as mounds, or under rocks or other objects. The mounds can vary in size, the larger decorated with small stones, small twigs, or leaves. Species in the forests of northern Australia may nest off the ground, in the trees.
I hope you found this article about the ants of Australia interesting. As always, if you spot any spelling and/or grammar errors,stated an incorrect fact. You can either comment on this article or contact me via the CONTACT page. Also, let me know of your suggestions for future articles. You may also make comments about the subject of Australian ants here. If you live in Australia, I would be intrested in hearing from you about the ants you have seen, or even kept, there. You will know far more than I about the ants there. Thank you.

between Trump and Russia go well beyond anything that transfixed the nation in scandals of the past, including Watergate. They fall into three categories. There’s the election-related cooperation. There are the subsequent national-security breaches. Then there’s the cover-up.
As for the particular claims of the memo, they don’t hold up to scrutiny.
Also, eager to counter Trump during the primaries and only later picked up by the Dems. The addition of Strzok, whose only offense that we know of was to express what half the country was thinking, was simply a hook to make the whole memo more newsworthy, particularly for Fox-like outlets.
So, on the fast-food burger spectrum, the Nunes memo isn’t even a sandwich. It amounts to a ketchup packet, or perhaps a used straw.
Despite the obsessions of the Nunes memo, the FBI’s investigation into election tampering goes well beyond Carter Page and the Steele dossier. The source of the information that really prompted the FBI to open up an investigation in July 2016 came from an altogether different source.
Oh, perhaps you still believe the canard that it wasn’t the Russians who hacked the DNC and vacuumed up all those emails? Well, then you haven’t kept up with the news.
Kozlovsky said he reported to Dmitry Dokuchayev, a major-general in the FSB, for various tasks since 2008. In 2016, Dokuchayev had instructed him to attack the DNC’s servers for the purpose of manipulating the U.S. electoral process, Kozlovsky testified.
So, the Russians had the goods and the Trump team was interested in the goods — did they actually coordinate or conspire?
These are actionable offenses, at least under the Federal Election Campaign Act. Conspiracy is an agreement to commit an offense; coordination would be if the Trump campaign relied on Russian sources of campaign finance. The oft-used charge of “collusion” certainly sounds ominous, but it doesn’t have legal standing.
That’s the heart of the inquiry — or inquiries, since it’s really five separate investigations — that special counsel Robert Mueller is currently pursuing. It’s impossible to know exactly what evidence Mueller has. But Wired broke it down recently: 400,000 documents related to possible money-laundering, the extensive activities of the Russian trolls on social media, specific hacking operations (like Cozy Bear), meetings between Russians and members of Trump’s team, and the cover-up.
Mueller is playing a patient middle game. He has turned two key players: Michael Flynn and George Papadopoulos. And he’s preparing to interview the big kahuna himself, Donald Trump.
The cooperation has extended to other foreign policy realms. Although the Trump administration’s more hostile approaches to Iran and North Korea have diverged from the Kremlin’s preferences, Washington has largely given Russia a free hand in Syria. That’s preferable to

John FITZGERALD, Employee-Appellant, v. ROY'S FLYING "A", Employer-Appellee.
Howard M. Berg, Wilmington, for employee-appellant.
B. Wilson Redfearn, Stephen P. Casarino, Wilmington, for employer-appellee.
This case comes to this Court ong claimant's petition for review of an agreement between the claimant and the employer's carrier.
The claimant, John Fitzgerald, was employer full-time by his father installing heating and air-conditioning units. He earned in excess of $75.00 per week. He also worked part-time for the appellee, Roy's Flying "A". Claimant worked two to three days per week and some nights at the rate of $1.50 per hour. On June 10, 1967, he was pinned between two cars and suffered a broken leg. It is not disputed that the injury is compensable; the question is how the rate of compensation is to be computed.
An agreement was entered into between Home Indemnity Company, the insurance carrier for Roy's Flying "A", and the claimant which provided for compensation at the rate of $24.33 per week based upon an average weekly wage of $24.33. The agreement was approved by the Board on August 9, 1967. On June 10, 1968, claimant petitioned *194 for a review of the compensation agreement. The Board awarded claimant $24.33 for fifty weeks from January 22, 1968, for a twenty per cent loss of use of his right leg. He was also awarded $24.33 for ten weeks for disfigurement resulting from the injury. The Board denied claimant's request for counsel fees because the appellee's insurer had offered a permanent partial award based upon a twenty per cent loss of use of the right leg prior to the hearing.
It is the claimant's contention that the averaging of the three weeks wages was not the proper method of determining his "weekly wages" pursuant to 19 Del.C. § 2302, and, therefore, not the proper basis for computing the compensation payments he was entitled to under 19 Del.C. § 2326. Claimant further argues that he is entitled to counsel fees because the offer made by the defendant's carrier was conditional upon claimant accepting the average "weekly wage" as computed by the carrier. He argues that because this computation was incorrect, he was not bound to accept it and is therefore entitled to counsel fees.
The question to be decided is how the wages of a full-time employee injured in part-time employment should be computed so as to determine the claimant's "weekly wage".
The claimant contends that his weekly wage should be computed by taking hisin his employer's "average work week".
The appellee contends that this method would compensate a part-time employee on the basis of full-time wages and that the legislature never intended this. He argues that the Board properly computed the weekly wage by using the average weekly earnings actually received in part-time employment. I do not agree.
The statute nowhere provides for compensation benefits based on part-time employment. The policy of 19 Del.C. § 2302 is that earnings be translated into a "weekly wage". The first sentence of 19 Del.C. § 2302 provides that, "* * * his weekly wages shall be taken to be that rate (day or hourly) times the number of days or hours in an average work week of his employer at the time of the injury." (Emphasis added.) Thus, the statute bases the "weekly wage" not on but on the days and hours in the employer's "average work week". Thus, the "weekly wage" is not the sum paid to an individual during a week when the period of actual work was less than the "average work week" of the employer.
Appellee cites an example of how computing the "weekly wage" in this manner may give rise to absurd results. If a part-time employee in an all-night coffee shop sustains an injury, should he then be compensated on the basis of his hourly wage rate times 168 hours? This of course would be an absurd result and is provided for in the last sentence of 19 Del.C. § 2302(b). That sentence provides that if because of exceptional causes the method of computation in the first sentence does not ascertain fairly the employee's earnings, then the weekly wage shall be based on the average earnings for six months of an average employee of the same or similar employment. In such a case then, the employee would be compensated on the same basis that an average full-time employee would be compensated at, most likely on a forty or forty-eight hour week.
In the instant case, such a result is not a problem. The employer operated the station approximately forty-eight hours per week and I hols computed pursuant to the first sentence of the statute. This would be his hourly rate of $1.50 times the forty-eight hours in the employer's average work week. Having determined that the average weekly wage is $72.00, claimant is entitled to $48.00 per week as compensation benefits. 19 Del.C. § 2326(h).
The second question is whether the claimant is entitled to counsel fees for the proceeding before the Board. The Board refused counsel fees because an award based on twenty per cent loss of use of the right leg had previously been offered. While the percentage of disability was not in dispute, the method of computation of the award had not been settled. That was petitioner's purpose in seeking a review of the agreement.
In conclusion, I hold that the Board erred in dismissing claimant's petition to review the agreement and hold thatAccordingly, the order of the Board e award and award of counsel fees.
[1] "The reason for the statutory plan is clear. The workmen's compensation act substituted a finite schedule of liability for the vagaries of a common law action. The employer is liable without fault, but even if at fault, he may pay much less than a damage award at law. The object of the statute is to compensate for the inroad upon the full-time earning capacity of the victim of industrial mishap upon an adjusted schedule of benefits, and of course a part-time job may be the setting of the destruction of an earning unit capable of full-time work, as in the case before us. At a glance, it may seem harsh to impose the liability of a full-time employer upon a part-time employer and its carrier. This is but superficially so, since the employer pays premiums only upon his actual payroll figure; and as to the carrier which receives premiums on that limited basis the compensating factor is that the chance of injury is reduced by the brevity of the actual period of work. If a man is employed for 5 hours rather than 40, the likelihood of injury is but one-eighth of what it would be in a full week of work." Id. at 36.

Skepticism Dogs Ukrainian Poll
In richest ex-Soviet republic, voters express disaffection for government amid faltering reforms and high inflation
LVOV, UKRAINE
LIKE almost everyone else in this westernmost part of Ukraine, Viktor Chobit supported the reformist-nationalist movement that led the fight for freedom from the Soviet Union two years ago. Now as Ukraine heads toward its first parliamentary election as an independent nation, he has decided not to vote.
``I have no time for politics,'' explains Mr. Chobit, an electrician, stopping briefly to talk in this city's charming market square, lined with 17th and 18th century imitations of Italian Renaissance palazzos. He works three jobs to survive in Ukraine's super-inflationary economy and complains that the deputy whom his factory supported has not shown his face since the last election.
In a four-day swing from the Ukrainian capital of Kiev in the country's center to this western city sense of disillusionment and political apathy among Ukraine's voters was widespread. After more than three years in which a parliament dominated by old-style Communists and bureaucrats stymied attempts at reform, it is now widely feared that Sunday's election holds no real possibility of change.
Many observers worry as well that the country's confusing election laws could yield a situation where no working parliament can be seated. Western diplomatic sources in Kiev say aides to President Leonid Kravchuk are working on plans for an interim period of direct presidential rule if that happens.
The election mood is testament to the deep sense of disappointment many feel over the lack of accomplishments in a free Ukraine, the second lEven in Western Ukraine, the stronghold of the nationalist movement where anti-Communists swept to victory in 1990 elections held while the Soviet Union still existed, there is little optimism.
``We won't see the enthusiasm of 1990 again,'' says parliament candidate Yuri Kluchkovsky, a physicist who heads the Lvov regional``One can see disillusionment with politics in general and people losing hope that anything can be changed.''
Little more than a week before the vote, the lack of campaign activity is striking. Campaign posters are hard to spot in the capital, though more numerous in the politicized west. Television appearances are limited by law and candidates spend their time speaking to whatever small audiences they can find.
At every level of government, from the Rukh-controlled regional administration in Lvov to the central government, voters express the belief that government cannot solve their problems. ``Nobody trusts either the old parliament or the candidates,'' says Stepan Pisotsky, an agronomist at a Rivne region collective farm that includes his village of Ptycha.
No questioning independence
In the west, where the soft endings of the Ukrainian language are the dominant tongue, there is little questioning of the correctness of independence from Russia. ``We have some questions about the quality of our leadership but not about independence itself,'' Mr. Pisotsky says.
That skepticism also extends to Rukh, which has at times backed President Kravchuk in his wavering support for reform and Ukrainian resistance to Russian pressures.
Rukh, which began as a broad front, has splintered into numerous parties now competing, often viciously, against one another. Economic depression is weakening support for moderate nationalists here, with more extreme ultranationalists gaining some ground.
In the more heavily populated east and south, where there is a greater concentration of Russian-speakers and of heavy industry, backing is growing for those who advocate closer ties to Russia. The former Communists, organized into a Communist Party and a Socialist Party, are the strongest organized groups, while many power blocs of the state-run industry and their allies are running as independents.
But the vote for the Supreme Rada, as the 450-seat parliament is called, is unlikely to produce a clear picture of political sentiments. In contrast to Russia, where half the seats were allocated proportionally on a party basis, the Ukrainian election law was deliberately written to weaken political parties, where the democrats and nationalists tend to be better organized. Instead it favors independents who come from the still powerful state and industry apparatus. Former Premier Leonid Kuchma, a former missile factory director who is now considered the most popular politician in Ukraine, heads such a group.
The law allows for candidates to be nominated by small groups of voters, by work places, or by parties. There are a huge number of candidates competing: 5,825 for 450 districts with up to 20 candidates for some seats. Only 11 percent of these are party nominees, the most numerous from the Communists, Socialists, Rukh, the Ukrainian Republican Party, and the Ukrainian Peasant Democratic Party.
Parties have a strong presence in the west and in urban areas. But in Ukraine's vast rural lands and small towns, the candidates are almost all independents.
Still Rukh officials in Kiev believe that they can win 25 percent of the seats, with another 10 percent going to Rukh-allied parties. Together with pro-reform independents, they see the possibility of forming a reformist government.
Viktor Pynzenyk, the economist who briefly was minister of economic reform, is heading a ticket of independent reformers, New Wave, in the west. He predicts a core of 150 radicals will form a nucleus that can push through reform.
But many consider such scenarios highly optimistic. ``It is hard to see any grouping or party having a clear majority or ability to take charge of the Rada,'' says a Western diplomat in Kiev.
To complicate matters further, the law requires that the winner get a majority of the votes, with a second round in two weeks between the two highest vote-getters. The law also calls for a more than 50 percent turnout of registered voters in both rounds to be valid. Many observers, including in the Central Election Commission, worry that with voter apathy, turnout will be low and even less in the second round, leaving the Rada short of even a majority of its members to seat the new parliament.
Under these circumstances, President Kravchuk may try to rule by himself. ``If there is some form of presidential administration, they might get some reforms through,'' the Western diplomat says.
But such an attempt could trigger new conflicts, even a resumption of the mass miners strikes in the east, which forced a pledge for new presidential and Rada elections last fall. Others see an increase in tensions between Kiev and Russian-speaking regions such as Crimea and the coal- mining Donbass region.
``This place could be in a lot of trouble in a very short period of time,'' concludes Ivan Lozowy, director of international relations for Rukh.

GRE Argument Essay: Seafood Dishes In Bay City Restaurants - With A Free Essay Review
First of all, the author uses the percentage increase in seafood consumption to illustrate the increased popularity of seafoods in Bay city. To justify this argument, we need evidence about the base of this increase, in other words, what was the seafood consumption five years ago, or what is the actual seafood dish consumption now. The percentage does not give us a good idea about the popularity of seafoods, since it is possible that the base is small or the seafood dish consumption was small five years ago, or seafood consumption is only a very small portion of various food choices; then, a 30 percent increase would not be significant compared to other foods. Consequently the author’s logic would be false, and this can weaken the final conclusion.
Secondly, the author implies a link between popularity of eating seafood and the concern about healthful eating. Since the nationwide study showed that two-income families, which comprise the majority of the Bay City population, are concerned about healthful eating, the author implies these families are likely to go to eat seafood. In order to test the veracity of the implied link, we need evidence about how many people consider seafoods as their choices of the healthy diet. If people favor salads or other foods as their choices of healthful eating, then, this will not lead to the conclusion of the significant increase in seafood popularity, thus, the author’s claim is not valid.
Finally, the author claims that the new Captain Seafood restaurant that specializes in seafood should be profitable, because there is a large population of presumable customers. To test the validity of this argument, we need evidence about if people prefer specialized seafoods restaurants over other types of restaurants that also offer seafoods, and if other restaurants which also sell seafoods make a lot of money from their seafood dishes. It is possible that people like regular restaurants for seafoods because they have more other choices. In addition, if other restaurants, which sell seafood, report that seafood dishes are indeed very profitable, then, this can bolster the author’s claim.
To sum up, in order to test the validity of the author’s conclusion, we need evidence about the actual seafood consumption in Bay city, and how many families consider seafoods as their choice of healthful eating.
Your first argument is reasonable but you conclude with an assertion rather than an explanation ("this can weaken the final conclusion"). Note that the prompt says "explain how the evidence would weaken or strengthen the argument." That means you need to write sentences like: “If the level of seafood consumption is relatively small in absolute terms, then there may not be a sufficiently large market to support a profitable seafood restaurant, especially in light of the fact that existing restaurants do serve seafood. For this reason, such evidence would weaken the argument. If the level of consumption is fairly high, however, etc.”
Your second argument is also reasonable (although you neglect the obvious common objection to evidence based on "nationwide surveys"; i.e., the fact that such surveys tend not to take account of local differences from national trends). Again, the conclusion to the paragraph, which in some ways is the most important part of the essay, is relatively weak. Specifically, it does not accurately represent the actual conclusion of the original argument.
In the next paragraph, you astutely note that "it is possible that people like regular restaurants for seafood because they have more choices" but in this case you don't offer any explanation at all of the significance of evidence of that possibility on the original argument.
In reference to your comment below, I'm not sure exactly what comment of mine you are referring to, but I think you've done a reasonably good job of specifying the evidence that you want to see here.
I'm not so sure how to answer "what specific evidence is needed to evaluate the argument", last time you tell me don't ask for something they did not mention. I'm not quite sure. Thanks!!

Peterborough, South Australia – my hometown
A few facts about Peterborough South Australia – my hometown
Peterborough South Australia – is a town in the mid north of South Australia near the Flinders Ranges at an altitude of 1755ft 535m., down from around 4,000 at its peak. It was originally named Petersburg and was one of 69 places in South Australia renamed in 1917dised railway gauge, three railway gauges y hub. Since standardisation of the gauges and reduction in rail traffic (now approx. 8 freight trains a day plus the famous Indian Pacific pass through), it has become a heritage tourism town and service centre for the surrounding area.
The town and countryside around provides the inspiration for much of my work, especially my Artistree Series
The town nowon is the Steamtown Heritage Rail Centre: at the western end of town.
From the Steamtown Heritage Rail Centre:
Tour the teak panelled interior of a 1923 1st Class lounge car (complete with piano!)
Enjoy ty
Hot & Cold –e many days of 45 degrees in summer, and it can go to -5 degrees at night in winter.
The Town Carriage Museum – is in the centre of town – open 7 days a week, 9am to 5pm, free entry! It houses a time-line exhibit of Peterborough’s history, complete with an interesting and enjoyable ‘virtual’ steam train ride in the compartments.
Entry Signs –l
Town Hall – The Peterborough Town Hall is one of the largest town halls in South Australia. It stretches along the main street and dominates the streetscape. Built between 1926-1927 it originally had five shopfronts but they have all been converted into council offices. Enter the building to inspect the ornate staircases and the impressive Federation quilt, which was completed in 2001 after an estimated 2000 hours of labour, and which was donated by the Peterborough Patchworkers.
The Statue of Bob the Railway Dog – Located in the small park in front of the Town Carriage Museum is a statue of Bob the Railway Dog. There is an entire website devoted to this dog – check out http://www.bobtherailwaydog.com with vast amounts of information (he really did become internationally famous during his life – 1882-1895)
Meldonfield Miniatures at the YMCA – Located on Main Street between the Town Hall and the Town Carriage Museum, the YMCA Building now has the unusual Meldonfield Miniatures created by Eldon and Mary Zimmermann. The exhibits include a 1:12 scale model of the original Petersburg Railway Station (actually built from the old station). There are also miniature Cobb & Co coaches with miniature people as well as a display of the huge number of tools and plans which have been used to create the miniatures. Upstairs the Peterborough Historic Group has housed artefacts associated with the history of “Petersburg to Peterborough” and the surrounding region.
Peterborough Printing Works – Located at 7-9 Jervois St., this is a fascinating reminder of a world of printing and newspapers that is fast disappearing. The building was where the Petersburg Times was printed from 1891. It closed in the 1970s but it has been beautifully maintained.
The Burg’s Model Rail Yards – Come and see the latest addition at the The Burg in the Newsagency – a working 1:148 model scale of the Peterborough rail yards in the late 1960s, including 70 buildings, 50 lights over 15,000 hours construction time and much much more!

- How much vinegar and baking soda do you use in the wash? I, too, am new to Charlie's Soap.posted 04/23/2012 by tigermommytobe
- I use Charlie's Soap as well - the liquid. And FuzziBunz diapers, but the Sunbaby ones look similar. I first do a cold rinse with baking soda and vinegar. Then a wash with hot water with Charlie's Soap - same amount you'd use for a load of laundry. No bleach, no pre-soaking. If you have trouble with bad smells, just do a second hot wash with a half dose of soap or no soap. I hang dry mine on a rack for 48 hours. By the time I collect the dry ones from the rack, it's time to put up a new load of dirty diapers. Don't use a rash cream, it will not wash out completely and your diapers will be less absorbant. Use Gold Bond baby powder. It works just as well as the creams and is ok on the diapers. I also like using Kushies Flushable Biodegradable Diaper Liners. They are paper liners you put on top of the diaper.. the poop collects on the paper, so you can easily lift it out and flush it before putting the rest of the diaper in the wash.posted 03/20/2012 by a BabyCenter Member

How to Become a CIA: (Part 3) Wholesaling 101
(on)
This week, wholesaling extraordinaire, Stephani Davis of Flip this Wholesaler is gonna teach you the basics to wholesaling real estate for quick cash.
But, before I let Stephani take it away … I’d like to tell you what I like most about wholesaling real estate …
3 Things I Love About Wholesaling Real Estate
1. Little to No Risk
3. Fastest Way to Create Cash in the Biz
Learning how to wholesale real estate … developing the skills to successfully turn a contract in to cash …ce.
… and you didn’t have to put anything at risk, didn’t have to sign your life away, didn’t have to empty your bank account … heck, you didn’t even have to fill out an application.
Here’s what Stephani is gonna cover …
Stephani told me she is going to be checking back regularly to answer any of your questions … sooooo get your questions answered while you can …
3. Check out this article, Cash … there are a bunch of links to other articles and resources in that article … make sure you click through and grab the free form for building your wholesaling buyer’s list …
And that concludes Part 3 … Wholesaling 101 …
A BIG thanks goes out to Stephani Davis of Flip this Wholesaler for putting together this week’s video and for giving us access to her assignment contract … THANKS Stephani … you’re awesome!
Stephani … here’s what one of my Facebook friends, Chandra, said about the video … “I watched it! It was great to see a woman discussing investing for a chance. The information was valuable. Thanks Patrick”
You also want to make sure to get a hefty deposit from your end buyer that is non-refundable. I always get 2k from my buyers, no exceptions. This usually keeps them from walking…
.-= Stephani´s last blog ..Quitclaim Deeds and REOs- Saturday Night Reader Mail.. =-.
Hey Rhonda … another tip with earnest money is to have your contract state that your closing attorney/title company holds the earnest money check. I always put an escape clause in each contract so that if I don’t end up closing, I can walk away and easily get my earnest money back.
Dave … always good to hear from ya man … you’re welcome!
Chris … I order a title search as soon as i get a property under contract to make sure the title is clean. I like to make sure it’s clean before marketing it to an end buyer …
More great stuff Patrick generic Purchase Agreement with us. Maybe you could point us to someplace that has one. Thanks for your help. I love your website.
Thank you Stephanie! I love to see woman that are successful in this business! I know a lot of woman are involved but not many come forward to teach and share their knowledge! Great…and inspiring.
Kraig … I don’t have a generic P and S to share with you right now. Part 7 of the series is forms, contracts, and contingencies … sooo stay tuned and we’ll see what resources we can provide.
Hey Sophie … the assignment contract available above for download is what Stephani uses when wholesaling deals.
That contract would not be conducive to buying property subject to … but I may have a resource to point you towards in part 7 of the series … that week is on contracts, forms, and contingencies …
.-= Lui´s last blog ..Private Money Lending =-.
If you plan on wholesaling a home, I’d suggest that you tell the homeowner that you’re connected to an investor network and your plan is to find an investor buyer for the home. If you plan on buying the home regardless of whether you find a wholesale buyer, I’d leave that out.
Thanks alot for your time Stephanie

Becoming an Uber driver is within the reach of everyone. However, th industry. Youe. You will also be required to have your car licensed by the Uber company. Before you embark on this adventure, take the time to find out all of the formalities upon entering this industry.
Getting licensed as a professional driver
Before you can become an Uber driver, you must already be licensed as a professional driver. That is, you need to be licensed to do passenger transportation. The way to access this VTC document is a set of exams that you must pass. In this environment, there are two exams, one of which is the option of a VTC card to practice with a single car. The second exam is for people who want to set up a business of transporting people with a fleet of vehicles. To learn more about the chauffeur business, check out this full article.
Formalizing your status as a professional driver
Once you have your authorization in hand, you need to formalize your status vis-à-vis the law. Indeed, as a professional driver, you practice on your own account. Your activity is comparable to a service provision and is subject to a specific regime. Therefore, think about getting in line with the jurisdiction. If you have to set up a company with several people, you will have to choose among the statutes of the type SARL, SAS or EURL.
Have a car approved by the company
Once you have the documents proving your status as a professional driver up to date, you will need to think about acquiring a vehicle. Then submit it for approval with the relevant Uber departments. Depending on the specifics of the car you have, the company will put you in one of these vehicle categories. In the UberX category, they put cars that are 6 years old and dark in color. In the Van category, they put vehicles that have 4 years of life on the clock and that have a dark color. The Sedan category groups the vehicles that have for working ground in the big cities. Finally, the UberGreen range includes hybrid or electric cars. The last action consists in subscribing to an insurance to cover the risks of damage which your customers or third persons could face during the exercise of your job.

Spring is here and it’s time to get outside and get active. My little one is learning how to ride a balance bike, and part of the fun of getting your first bike is kitting it out with all the bells and whistles (literally). Unfortunately, there aren’t a lot of little boy accessories, so I promised him I would make him his own little basket so all his stuffies and toy cars can go for a ride, too.

the company is Dynamic Recovery Solutions so I'm assuming from the name they are some sort of collection agency. They left me a very aggressive voice mail and I have no intention of calling them back.
The first time I tried to answer, there was silence then it disconnected. I thought it was a telemarketing call, because they are usually on dialers, so it takes a few moments before they cime on the line. Apparently, it's a collection company for subscription magazines. I was told I owe $600.00 in magazine subscriptions. First, if I want a magazine, I buy it off the rack. I explained that I never had any magazine subscription and how can it cost that much anyway. The woman was nice, she said its for a subscription for 3 years. She confirmed my name and address and said I was not the first today where there was an error, but she will research with the post office before closing this that no magazine subscriptions were sent to my address. I asked what is the name of the magazine? She said the company doesn't tell them the name of the magazine, which I found strange. She said she would call back after her research to let me know the case is closed. Now I feel like this was some scam and am worried that I confirmed my name and address. I didntvgivevany other info, so hopefully this company is legit.
I have had the same thing "Sean White" calling. Then he started getting creepy, saying do I have a big butt, and cursing at me! I left the phone on and told him I was recording his conversation and he just got louder and saying the same thing. Then for 6 min he kept saying hello until he finally hung up. Who are these people?
I called the number back and got a answering machine to take my number off their calling list..they said it will take 48hrs...its been three week. When I did answer the phone I told the Man I was not interested in grants he said ok. but they continue to call and say notthing
always getting calls from this number. when i call them back, this lady says that she never called my number. i receive calls early in the mornings and in the afternoons.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) is the technology that allows a device to receive both power and data over a single cable. PoE has become an important part of modern IT networks. It enables many new applications,as, to be powered and connected directly to the network without needing additional power cabling. But not all PoE switches are created equal. Industrial grade PoE switchesmore demanding applications in harshindustrial grade PoE switch in your network.
What is an industrial grade PoE switch?
An industrial grade PoE switch is a type of networkindustrial settings. These switches are made to withstand harsher conditions than a standard consumer-grade switch, such as extreme temperatures, dust, and vibration. Industrial grade PoE switches also offer more robust features and performance than consumer-grade switches.
If you are looking to add an industrial grade PoE switch to your networknumber of ports you will need. The second is the amount of power that each port can provide. And the third is the degree of weather resistance that you require.
When it comes to port count, you will want to make sure that you the devices you plan on connecting. If you have a lot of devices that need PoE, then you will want to choose a switch with a high port count. Conversely, if you only have a few devices that need PoE, then you can get by with a lower port count.
The next thing to considerThis is important because not all devices require the same amount of power. For example, some IP cameras may only require 5 volts while others may require 48 volts. Make sure that the switch you choose has enough power output on each port to accommodate all of your devices.
Finally, you will want to consider the degree of weather resistance that you need from your switchmoisture, then you will want to make sure that your switch can withstand these conditions. Look for switches that are rated for outdoor use and have extended temperature ranges.
Industrial grade PoE switchelso have a higher power budget than standard PoE switches, meaning they can provide more power to ts. When installing an industrial grade PoE switchthe switch is able to operate safely and correctly in your environment.
As you can see, an industrial grade PoE switch brings numerous advantages to your network. Not only does it offer more features than a regular PoE switch, but its rugged design also ensures reliability in extreme temperatures and environments. With all these benefits taken into account, investing in an industrial grade PoE switch is sure to pay off in the long run.

Here’s what it boils down to: since at least the start of the 2011 season (or earlier) there has been some discussion about whether Joe Flacco is an “elite” quarterback. Now he’s playing in the Super Bowl and it sounds like he’ll be demanding “Drew Brees money” when he gets a new contract in the off-season. Throughout all of this, and even up to this point, I’ve personally been skeptical of this praise of Flacco and the desire to rank him among the best QBs in today’s NFL. However, maybe there is something to all of these stories and arguments. Maybe Flacco is actually better than I give him credit for. In an effort to see if Flacco is indeed one of today’s best, I’ve compiled a list of criteria for what I think makes an NFL quarterback one of the best. Please be aware that this is a personal, non-professional/expert analysis. It’s just one fan doing amateur statistical and career comparisons in order to convince himself that he’s right, or find out that he’s wrong.
Here are the 5 criteria by which I’ve decided to judge active NFL QBs (in order for them to be considered among the best in the league, or, if you want to go that far, the ELITE):
1. Since becoming a starting QB, the QB must have started a majority of games over his career, including the most recent season.
2. The QB must have put up consistently good (read: top 10) numbers throughout his career
3. The QB must get his team to the postseason
4. The QB should have won (or at least appeared in) a Super Bowl during his tenure as a starter
5. Perhaps slightly less important, the QB should have won the league MVP and/or been voted/invited to the Pro Bowl
A couple of notes about each of the criteria.
1. It can be difficult to decide who qualifies as a long-term starting QB in certain cases because players can lose entire seasons due to being injured (Peyton Manning, Tom Brady), going to prison (Michael Vick), being a bench warmer (Aaron Rodgers) or suffering a lapse in playing ability (Kurt Warner). I’ve considered any active QB who has been a starter for the majority of his time in the league. From there, I mostly considered statistics from seasons where a QB started at least 8-9 games (“eligible” seasons). If they started fewer games than that, I left those particular seasons out of my calculations.
2. Numbers. I’m married to a statistician, but I hardly consider myself statistically skilled or even mathematically inclined. I just like to take a look at lists and numbers and spot trends, or perhaps just create them myself. I decided top 10 was a good cutoff because if you’re not in the top 10 very often, you’re probably not one of the elite and also because that’s how seasonal statistics are listed. I chose the first four categories listed above (yards, TDs, passer rating, completion %) because they’re the major passing categories that the media seems most interested in. I chose the fifth, adjusted yards/attempt, (or adj y/a) because it’s apparently the statistic with the closest correlation to wins in the NFL (which is why I’ll try to list it separately below). I then looked back at the past 15-or-so years of top 10 lists to see how many times any particular QBs name appeared on any one of the seasonal lists in these categories in “eligible” seasons. I turned this into a percentage, an amateur/inexpert calculation which I’ve taken to calling the “top 10 score.”
For example, if a QB has five eligible seasons, they have five lists each season in which they can potentially place in the top 10. Multiply that by five eligible seasons and you have 25. Divide their actual number of appearances on those lists by 25 and you have their top 10 score, OR, a number that tells you how often you should expect to see that particular QBs name on a top 10 list in any of these categories during an eligible season. Basically, the higher, the better. Like I said, inexpert, clunky and wanting for much (including weighting based on number of eligible seasons and actual rank on the lists). Also, none of this analysis really takes into account the reality of good QBs on bad teams and bad QBs with good defenses, plus, none of it even acknowledges the existence of Brett Favre. Still, I think it can at least show us a little something and hey, it’s just for fun.
3 & 4. Getting to the postseason means a QB is a winner. Getting to the Super Bowl means a QB can win big games. Winning the Super Bowl means that a QB can win the biggest game (and join the select few who have accomplished that feat).
5. An MVP award is slightly less important in that only one person wins it each year and that person is not necessarily a QB. A Pro Bowl selection/invitation is perhaps even less important given how much people seem to care about the Pro Bowl nowadays and how many QBs could end up going (see: 6 NFC QBs in 2012).
With that over-explanation behind us, I want to turn to the QBs themselves. Before measuring the individual QBs against my criteria, I’ll just go ahead and briefly list those whom I consider to be at the top. I think it’s safe to say that there are really only about 3-4 obvious choices for the NFL’s elite QB club right now, followed by 2-3 others who are more debatable, then maybe 3-4 more who are certain second-tier guys, followed by everyone else. I think the top four quarterbacks in the NFL right now, whether based on my criteria or not,Very controversial choices indeed, huh? Next, I’d rank Ben Roethlisberger and Eli Manning, probably in that order. Then there’s a level featuring Flacco, Philip Rivers, Tony Romo and Matt Ryan. I know there are some first and second year guys who might deserve consideration as part of this last group, butmselves, yet.
When we take a closer look at the top four QBs, we see that they meet all 5 of my criteria, to varying degrees.
Since taking over as starter in the 3rd game of the 2001 season (his second season in the league), the only games Tom Brady has missed came in his “lost” 2008 season (leg injury). Leaving out that season as “ineligible,” Brady has ranked in the seasonal top 10 in the five statistical categories listed above 48 times, out of 55 “opportunities.” That gives him an 87.2% chance of appearing on any given top 10 list from those categories. Or, put simply, he has a top 10 score of 87.2% (tied for #3 among active QBs in adj y/a at 7.71). He’s only missed the postseason one year (2002) as a non-injured starter, winning at least one playoff game in eight of those 10 seasons and posting an overall postseason record of 17-7 (70.8%). In that time, he’s appeared in five Super Bowls, winning three (notably in his first, third and fourth seasons as a starter). He was named Super Bowl MVP twice, league MVP twice and he has been voted/invited to eight Pro Bowls (a 72.7% success rate) including the last five (not counting 2008).
In the same number of seasons as Brady, Drew Brees has never missed a game due to injury. He was pulled for five games in 2003 due to poor play and he sat out the 2004 and 2009 season finales, missing a total of seven games since he became the starter in 2002 (his second season). Brees’ top 10 score is 70.9% over his career (#9 on adj y/a at 7.31). He’s gone to the postseason five times (out of 11) and has a playoff record of 4-4 (50%). He won his only Super Bowl appearance (2009) and was named MVP of that game. He has never won a league MVP award, but he has been voted/invited to seven Pro Bowls (63.6%), including the last five.
Peyton Manning has started every game of his NFL career with the exception of the 2011 season which he missed entirely due to injury. Manning’s top 10 score is 91.4% (#6 on adj y/a at 7.55). This is a remarkably consistent level of quality considering how long he’s played. He has taken his team(s) to the playoffs in all but two (1998, 2001) of his 14 active seasons, posting a playoff record of 9-11. Winning just 45% of his playoff games is probably the biggest black mark on his record. Still, he has appeared in two Super Bowls, winning in 2006 (game MVP) and losing in 2009. He has been named league MVP 4 times (in a 7 year span) and has been voted/invited to twelve Pro Bowls (85.7%), missing only 1998 (his rookie season), 2001 and 2011 (his injured season).
After sitting on the bench as a backup for his first three years in the league, Aaron Rodgers has been a starting QB for the past five years, missing only one game due to injury and sitting out the 2011 finale. Rodgers has yet to rank outside of the top 10 in any of the five noted statistical categories, meaning he has a top 10 score of 100% (ranking #1 in adj y/a with 8.63, which is .86 higher than #2). He has gone to the postseason in four of his five seasons as a starter (all but 2008, his first), posting a record of 5-3 (62.5%). He won the only Super Bowl he has appeared in (2010) and was named MVP of the game. He was named league MVP the following year and has been voted/invited to three Pro Bowls (60%).
Ranking just behind these four, in my opinion, are the only two other active starting QBs (until today, at least) to win a Super Bowl.
Ben Roethlisberger has been a starting QB since the third game of his rookie season. He has missed ten games in nine years due to injury, four games in 2010 due to a suspension and he sat out the 2007 finale. His top 10 score is 55.6% (#5 in adj y/a with 7.66). He has gone to the playoffs in six of nine seasons, with a record of 10-4 (71.4%). He has appeared in three Super Bowls, winning two (2005-his second season, and 2008) and losing one (2010). He has never been Super Bowl MVP or league MVP, but he has been voted/invited to two Pro Bowls (22.2%).
Eli Manning has started every game since he gained the starting job in game 10 of his rookie season (2004). Not counting that first season (as he only started 7 games), he has a top 10 score of 35% (#15 in adj y/a with 6.57). He’s gone to the playoffs in five seasons with a record of 8-3 (72.7%). Manning won both Super Bowls in which he appeared (2007 and 2011) also winning MVP of both. He has not won the league MVP, but has been voted/invited to three Pro Bowls (including the last two) (37.5%).
As you can see, Roethlisberger and Eli keep good pace with the top four, particularly when it comes to playoff records. They don’t quite have the top 10 scores, MVPs or Pro Bowl appearances, but they each have two Super Bowl wins, second only to Brady among active QBs.
Before getting to Flacco, there are a some other guys who deserve some consideration. First, two guys who put up consistently good numbers and who are actually #2 and #3 on the list of active QBs in Adjusted yards/attempt (again, the stat most closely associated with wins).
Since becoming the starter in game seven of his third season, Tony Romo has missed 13 games, all due to injury. His top 10 score is 80% (#2 in adj y/a with 7.77). He has taken his team to the playoffs in three seasons (out of six as a regular starter) posting a playoff record of 1-3 (25%). He has never won a league MVP and has been voted/invited to the Pro Bowl three times (2006, 2007, 2009).
Philip Rivers has started every game since week one of his third year. His top 10 score is 71.4% (tied with Brady for #3 in adj y/a with 7.71). Rivers has taken his team to the playoffs in four of his seven years as a starter, posting a record of 3-4 (42.9four times, including three straight from 2009-2011.
I include these guys because, despite their moderate-to-poor postseason records, they consistently put up good numbers, kind of like Peyton Manning. Unlike Peyton, neither has been to, or won, a Super Bowl. Before looking at the QB who prompted this post, Joe Flacco, and his draft classmate Matt Ryan, I’m going to do my due diligence and look at four other long-ish-tenured QBs.
After backing up Michael Vick for three seasons in Atlanta, Matt Schaub was traded to the Houston Texans (ending the great David Carr Experiment), where he has been a fairly consistent starter. In his six seasons he has missed 16 games, all due to injury/illness. His top 10 score is 56.7% (#7 in adj y/a with 7.51). His team went to the postseason in 2011 and 2012, however, due to injury he did not play in either 2011 game, going 1-1 as the starter in 2012 (50%). He has never been league MVP but has been voted/invited to two Pro Bowls.
Carson Palmer didn’t play a single snap in his rookie season. He has missed 23 starts over the nine years since then including 16 games due to injury, and seven games in 2011 (because he did not report for Bengals training camp for weeks 1-6, and he came off the bench for Oakland in week seven). His top 10 score is 37.5% (#12 in adj y/a with 6.67). He has posted only two winning seasons in eight as a regular starter, losing a postseason game in each (0-2 playoff record). In his defense, he was knocked out of the 2005 postseason game after throwing only one pass (a 66 yard completion). He has not won a league MVP but was voted/invited to the Pro Bowl twice (2005, 2006).
Jay Cutler has missed eight games in his six seasons as a starting QB. He has a top 10 score of just 13.3% (#13 in adj y/a with 6.61). He has two winning seasons and played two postseason games in 2010, going 1-1. He has never been league MVP and has one Pro Bowl appearance (2008).
In the seven seasons in which he has started at least eight games, Michael Vick has missed 17 total starts. He has a top 10 score of only 8.6% (#14 in adj y/a with 6.59). He has been a regular starter in three winning seasons and has a 2-3 record in the postseason (40%). He has never been league MVP but has gone to four Pro Bowls (2002, 2004, 2005, 2010).
None of the four guys directly above have a great postseason record, nor do they have stellar passing numbers (though Schaub isn’t bad). I’ve only included them because they’re still legitimate starting QBs and (apart from seasons lost to prison time) have been around for quite a while.
As an aside, I’ve left QBs like Matthew Stafford, Josh Freeman, Sam Bradford, Alex Smith, Matt Cassel, Ryan Tannehill, Blaine Gabbert, Christian Ponder, Jake Locker, Mark Sanchez etc… off of the list for various reasons, but mostly because they lack the seasonal statistical achievements, the postseason prowess or the longevity in the league that would justify the space it would take to write up a bit about each of them (though Sanchez had a surprisingly good postseason record of 4-2 (66.7%), losings). I’ve also left off first and second year QBs because they haven’t really had much chance to prove themselves (though Andy Dalton has an 0-2 postseason record and a Pro Bowl appearance, anall went to the playoffs and were voted/invited to the Pro Bowl in their rookie seasons). Also, as much as I’d love to heap praise upon Colin Kaepernick, the Super Bowl is only the kid’s 10th NFL start. Notably, he had the highest adj y/a in the league this season, at 8.62 in his eight games played (seven starts). Man, is he exciting to watch!
Now let’s (finally, though not quite finally) take a look at Joe Flacco.
But first, his draft classmate Matt Ryan. Ryan was the unquestioned starter from week one of his rookie year. Since then he has missed just two games (injury) in his five seasons. His top 10 score is 48% (#10 in adj y/a at 7.13). He has posted winning seasons every year, going to the postseason in four of five seasons and posting a playoff record of 1-4 (20%). He has never won the league MVP but has been voted/invited to the Pro Bowl twice (2010, 2012).
Joe Flacco has never missed a start in his five years in the NFL. His top 10 score is 16% (#11 in adj y/a at 6.89). He has a winning record in every season and has gone to the playoffs in each one of his first five seasons, a record for a QB to start his career. He has an overall playoff record of 8-4 (66.7%, not counting the Super Bowl yet, obviously). He has never been league MVP and has never been voted/invited to a Pro Bowl.
So, is Flacco elite? Is he one of the best in the league? Does he deserve Drew Brees money? His perfect attendance record speaks for itself, but he’s lacking in steady top 10-worthy passing production. Clearly, numbers aren’t everything, but compared to everyone above he’s ranking below all but Cutler and Vick (and Manning in adj y/a), at least on my scale. On paper, Matt Ryan is arguably the better 2008-draftee, or is at least no worse than Flacco. However, what really works in Flacco’s favor is his postseason success. The guy hasn’t lost in the first round of the playoffs, ever. Plus, he’s been to three AFC Championship games, finally winning this year. The guy gets enough done during the regular season to give him an opportunity to get it done in the postseason. I wouldn’t ever call him a “game manager,” though his middling stats could suggest otherwise, but instead, I think he’s probably just the perfect fit for his team, and that’s the best argument he has for getting a big paycheck. Flacco wins games. He often wins big games. The Ravens can’t threaten to go with someone else because they’ve built the team around him and they’re not going anywhere without him. Keep in mind, I’m saying all of this even before he even sets foot onto the field for the Super Bowl. If he wins today, he can probably name his price (also, a Ravens win thankfully almost guarantees that Ray Lewis retires, so they won’t have to pay him next year, freeing up some dough for Flacco). Even if I don’t think Flacco is as good as Brady, Brees or Peyton, what do I care how much they pay him? It isn’t my money.
Maybe this is kind of a letdown after making you read a bunch of boring stuff about other starting QBs, but personally, I’m not ready to call Flacco one of the elite. A Super Bowl win will definitely help his case, and anoint him as the seventh active starting QB with a ring. Should that happen, I’d still hesitate to rank him above any of the other Super Bowl winning QBs in the league. However, along with is postseason success, a ring would give him a definite edge over Romo and Rivers, though they’ve never even been to a Super Bowl. Oh yeah, and he’s only been in the league five years. If the Ravens continue fielding a good defense, Flacco’s postseason streak could continue until he retires.
Before closing out this epic, I want to take a quick look at two other QBs who might be comparable to Flacco, but who didn’t fit the above list because they’re not really starters anymore.
First, Matt Hasselbeck. Since becoming a starter for the Seahawks in 2001, Hasselbeck has missed 29 starts. There was a bit of a QB competition between him and Trent Dilfer in 2002 and Hasselbeck missed nine starts in 2008 due to injury. His top 10 score is 34% (#19 in adj y/a with 6.36). He went to the playoffs five seasons in a row from 2003-2005, and again in 2010, posting a record of 5-6 (45.5%). Still, he got the Super Bowl in 2005 (but lost to the Steelers) and was voted/invited to the Pro Bowl three times (2003, 2005, 2007). He has since lost his starting job (with the Titans) to Jake Locker.
Perhaps Flacco and Hasselbeck don’t have that much in common, but they both are pretty good about getting to the postseason (with five consecutive seasons each), and have both been to a Super Bowl. Hasselbeck’s top 10 score isn’t much better than Flacco’s, though Hasselbeck has only posted one top 10 appearance (in the selected categories) since 2007 (and that was #10 in comp. % in 2011). This suggests that in his prime he was probably better than Flacco is right now and has just dropped off in his past few seasons.
The other, perhaps better, QB comparison to Joe Flacco (though certainly not in overall style of play) is Donovan McNabb. McNabb started six games of his rookie season. Over each of the following five seasons he posted winning records (though he missed six games in 2002 due to injury and sat out the 2004 finale). His top 10 score is 30.9% (his career adj y/a is 6.83, which would rank him at #12 among active QBs, just .06 behind Flacco). He made the playoffs in seven seasons (out of 11 as starter), including five in a row from 2000-2004 (then in 2008 and 2009). His overall postseason record is 9-7 (56.3%). McNabb made the Pro Bowl every year 2000-2004 and also in 2009, though he never won league MVP.
I don’t know that anyone would call McNabb and Flacco similar when watching them play, but their early records are somewhat alike. If we leave out McNabb’s rookie season, but instead look at the next five years, they compare reasonably well with Flacco. McNabb has 91.25% games started vs. Flacco’s 100%. 40% top 10 score vs. Flacco’s 16% (maybe that’s not so close, but if we leave out McNabb’s stellar 2004 season his rate drops to 25%). Here’s where things get a bit closer. Both Flacco and McNabb went to the playoffs every year during the five year spans in question. McNabb posted a 7-5 playoff record vs. Flacco’s 8-4 (which will become either 8-5 or 9-4 tonight). McNabb tookculminating in a Super Bowl appearance (and loss) in 2004 vs. Flacco’s three total AFC Championship games culminating in a Super Bowl.
Of course, Flacco is a bit less mobile than McNabb (which may improve his longevity), running for 430 yards and seven TDs in his five seasons. By comparison, McNabb ran for 460 yards and six TDs in his 2002 season alone (amassing 2146 yards and 20 TDs from 2000-2004). So they’re not all that similar, but there are some interesting points of comparison. McNabb started as strong as Flacco (if not stronger, as my criteria would suggest). McNabb’s only losing season as the Eagles starter was in 2005, the year after the Super Bowl loss, when they went 6-10 (though McNabb was only 4-5 as a starter that year). It will really be interesting to see how Flacco progresses from here, especially after a Super Bowl appearance. Win or lose tonight, Flacco’s amazing postseason run this year may just be the spark that sets him off for several more years of even better play.
If you’ve come this far, I hope this h research. I know it’s amateur, particularly with my creation of the “top 10 score” stat, but I never claimed to be an expert, just a fan. I planned to put some of this into an easy-to-read and compare table, but since the Super Bowl is today, I wanted to get this posted before I have to rethink everything I’ve said about Joe Flacco. If you’re so inclined you can revisit in the future to see if I’ve done it. Also, if you’re reading this anytime after the start of the 2013 season, many of the stats and calculations listed above will be (even more) wrong. I welcome any comments, questions, arguments, recommendations, corrections, rankings or better examples of research (provided you’ve already done it). If you’re interested in NFL stats, I highly recommend this site. I hope to write more on the topic of the NFL and QBs in general, though in more concise and less sprawling posts. We’ll see if I can rein myself inaron rodgers, adjusted yards/attempt, ben roethlisberger, drew brees, eli manning, joe flacco, matt ryan, MVP, NFL, peyton manning, playoffs, Pro Bowl, Quarterback, Super Bowl, tom brady by slazenger1.

Love it! Anything that ends with Joe Flacco not being a top-tier quarterback is alright in my book. Give a league-average quarterback Coach John Harbaugh and that defense and you actually have Joe Flacco.
Also, I’ve been getting really into sports statistics and analysis. If you haven’t been reading Bill Barnwell on Grantland, it’s time to start!
I’d like to add that Flacco was absolutely sick for the entirety of this year’s playoffs.

Magic Affecting Normal Animals!
With your typical fantastic world, there is magic everywhere, spellcasters, magic environments, magical monsters and so on. In thinking about this, and the potential effects magic may have on a world in general, have you considered magical effects on farm animals? Your normal cows, goats, sheep, pigs and chicken. Of course, one could also consider any number of animals, birds, and fish. Turkeys, vultures, eels, weasels, apes, and more.
For example, in my own world of Thandor, I have the Gomiyev Boar, Jhaandiya Storm Bison, and the Sebbari Chicken.
Gomiyev Boar--Gomiyev Boars are larger and more fierce than standard boars, though they are also intelligent and malevolent. Gomiyev Boars speak their own language, and also share a form of limited telepathy amongst themselves. Gomiyev Boars embrace a deep hatred towards humans in particular, but also other humanoids such as Elves, Dwarves, and Halflings. Gomiyev Boars travel the wilderness in packs, and lurk, watching humans and waiting for opportunities to kill, eat, and otherwise cause chaos and fear amongst humanoid populations. Packs of Gomiyev Boars often gather together so as to make coordinated attacks on isolated farmsteads and rural villages. Gomiyev Boars also make alliances with bands of evil humanoids, dark witches, and other such forces so as to further strengthen their resistance against the advance of civilization. Gomiyev Boars have two sets of powerful tusks, and have large feet, with 6 coal-black toes.
Jhaandiya Storm Bison--Jhaandiya Storm Bison are immense creatures, roughly the size of a rhinoceros. The Jhaandiya Storm Bison are resistant to lightning and thunder damage. The Jhaandiya Bison cause bludgeoning and thunder damage against opponents that are struck by their hoof attack, or that are trampled. Jhaandiya Bison fur have strands of glimmering, silver blue hair, which gives the creatures a distinctive, semi-sparkling appearance.
Sebbari Chicken--The Sebbari Chicken are a breed of chickens that have gold coloured eyes, dark auburn coloured feathers, and large, milk-white legs and feet. Sebbari Chickens are often larger than standard chickens, and strong. Sebbari Chickens are comfortable in cold, icy environments, and have advantage on all cold-related saving throws. Sebbari Chickens are largely omnivorous, and are very rugged creatures. Sebbari Chickens are often domesticated, especially by barbarian tribes living throughout cold, northern forests.
In Dragon Storm this sort of thing was the norm since pretty much anything could be twisted by the warp and tox contamination and mutate into some horror. A few have sorta-kinda stabalized into new breeds. Others are just random victims of the necros spread of the taint.
The Gamma World game might also be useful for coming up with new critter variants of animals.
Was going to mention Gamma World, but its not a fantasy setting. But you can port over mutations fairly easy.
Also consider just renaming existing critters to fit this. A gorgon is some magic induced bull, as is a catoblepas for example. Cocatrice, and so on.
Eberron seems to run on this and is what they mean really when they say any race or monster from D&D is possible because... magic! rather than because these are stable genetic stock.
Similar to the draconians in Dragonlance and drakes in Neverwinter. They are not natural and are created via magic and dragon eggs.
Dragon had for 3e an article on various ways animals can end up corrupted or radically changed by magic. Including Unicorns driven totally insane after having their horns harvested and becoming Bloodlances as the blood from the wound forms a saber-like horn.
I'd have to dig it out but Red Steel setting might also have elements of this as animals likely can end up corrupted by cynnabar as well. And Neverwinter had this whole Black Ice thing that corrupted anything that came into contact with it too long. Similar to Red Steel.
Theres also been a few articles on this in older editions of Dragon.
I did mention at the start porting over mutations. And AD&D has that little section on crossing over between the two for shi-fi/post-apoc meets fantasy.
Yes, indeed, my friend! I thought, "Hmmm...what if a group of boars were mutated, and gained superior intellect, and their nature was malevolent, infused with a kind of racial memory of always being hunted, imprisoned, and slaughtered by humans?" I kept having these visions of groups of boars lurking in the forest, watching humans working a farm nearby. The boar's gaze full of hatred and rage...and then, several of them speaking amongst themselves, whispering together about a scheme to catch the humans by surprise, biting and tearing into them relentlessly...the young boys being flung into the air...a woman trampled under their feet as she screams...the triumphant boars forcing their way into the farm house, eating everything in reach...guzzling a large urn of milk. Satisfied with the silence of their victory, save for the dying moans of a few victims bleeding out, the savage boars gather together, and head off into the forest.
Calm down lol.
Eyes of flame, spikes protecting his neck, tusks the size of an elephant's, and lighting breath. And so ferocious, it drove the people of the countryside to seek shelter behind the walls of the city, as if besieged.
Though the most interesting parts of the story aren't the boar itself, but the intrigue surrounding it. The boar didn't just happen, it was sent to plague a region. By a god, who was pissed off because the king forgot to honor her in an annual rite. In response, the king sent out messengers to seek out those who would try their hand at slaying the beast, and earning its hide and tusks as trophies. One of the heroes is a savage huntress representing the scorned god, another is the son of the king, and there were assorted other kings and princes, and others that were just heroes.
Before it even ensued, most of the heroes, driven by jealousy and prejudice, refused to hunt with the huntress. Though ultimately, they were won over by the besotted prince. During and after the hunt, many heroes turned on each other, trying to keep the spoils to themselves. Accidents happened, like the hero who inadvertently killed yet another king, who happened to be his father in law, and thus had to flee.
Ultimately, the huntress took first blood, and the prince slew the boar. But out of love and honor, gave the spoils to the huntress. Which precipitated another fight, because of the sons of another king claimed that if the prince refused to accept the spoils, it belonged to them by right of birth. In a fit of pique, the prince slew the sons of the other king. But his mother was sister to the other king's sons, so she magically killed her own son in return. All of which was due to the god's meddling, in order to get revenge against the king.
Even after it died, the boar's hide was taken to a temple where it rotted and shed hair and bristles in majestic glory. The tusks were taken by a great empire, and one was broken.
To turn that into a game scenario, start with criers, rumors, or posts on billboards that notify the PCs of a great event. Bring in all kinds of heroes and adversaries the PCs have met or heard rumor of, including NPCs of high stature. Have a celebration before the hunt, where the PCs can ask questions, observe, spy, and otherwise figure out who else is there, and open and secret motivations, including conflicts. They might spot liaisons or suspicious gatherings, overhear plans of ambush, see spells being cast, and so on. Then have at least one incident happen that night, to demonstrate, even to the less perceptive PCs, that hidden trouble boils beneath the surface of the gala.
However they're distributed, the ideal is to make the trophies them long-standing fixtures of the campaign. Have them staged in important locations, like in the hall of a mighty lord, on the altar of a great temple, above the gates of a grand guild, or so on. Give them magical powers, but make them more domain-level than personal -- the PCs can't wield them as weapons or armor, for instance. But they might dispel the clouds in the hex around them or bring rain in drought; or maybe they can be rubbed to endow magical properties on items; or perhaps they ward a great area against certain creatures; and so on. Wherever they go, have them affect the course of the campaign.
Well, it's not really science fiction either, so...
Back in the 80s writers were plenty willing to mix the two. That’s why we got D&D adventures about exploring crashed spaceships.

Warner Bros. Plans Temple Run Feature Film
Somehow this is actually happening. David Heyman is set to adapt the popular video game, "Temple Run" into a film. Heyman is most known as being one of the key producers behind the "Harry Potter" franchise and the recent science fiction film, Gravity. So I guess, if this has to happen, he will at least make it look awesome.
"Temple Run" ("Temple Run: Brave" and "Temple Run: Oz"), "Temple Run" released a direct sequel, "Temple Run 2," earlier this year.

Kim Jong Il’s death has a lot of people talking about the terrible suffering in that totalitarian state. Comparing it to the world and to South Korea in particular provides a useful perspective. Income inequality in the US is nothing compared to the misery caused by Kim Jong Il, but I found it fascinating how similarly economic inequality looks comparing North and South Korea with the top 1% and the lowest quintile in the United States.
Can you guess which graph is Per Capita GDP for North vs South Korea and which graph is US real average after-tax income?

as required in order for such benefits to accrue. Averhart App. at 7 (emphasis in original). The court cited the fact that plaintiffs left the active payroll of the company during 1989, either under the EMTP or through regular retirement, and thus were not "on the payroll as of February 28, 1990 or on a leave of absence which guaranteed reinstatement" so as to qualify for 5 + 5 benefits. Id. at 7-8support for plaintiffs' claim that the EBC ignored any of the evidence before it in ruling on plaintiffs' benefits claims. Moreover, our review of the record convinces us that to the extent the relevant evidence was considered by the committee, it did not as plaintiffs argue, conclusively demonstrate that plaintiffs were "active employee[s] on the payroll as of February 28, 1990" so as to entitle them to 5 + 5 benefits. Instead,sustain the committee's contrary finding, including the undisputed evidence that plaintiffs had retired or had taken leaves of absence with no guarantee of reemployment as of February 28, 1990. Averhart Supp.App. at 2, 66; Sabell App. at 33. Based on the foregoing record evidence, we cannot set aside the district court's decision to affirm the EBC's denial of benefits to plaintiffs. See Torix, 862 F.2d at 1429.
3. The EBC's grant of 5 + 5 benefits to employees retiring under the Directors' Program.
An employer can wear two hats: one as a fiduciary administering a pension plan and the other as the drafter of a plan's terms. Therefore, because the functions are distinct, an employer does not act as a fiduciary when it amends or otherwise sets the terms of a plan.... Because the defendants here wplan, they breached no fiduciary duties allegedly owed ... when they altered the plan's eligibility requirements.
Accord497-99 (3d Cir.1994); Elmore v. Cone Mills, 23 F.3d 855, 860-61 (4th Cir.1994) (en banc; Belade v. ITT Corp., 909 F.2d 736, 737-38 (2d Cir.1990); Landry v. Air Line Pilots Ass'n Intern., AFL-CIO, 901 F.2d 404, 414-15 (5
Because the EBC's adoption of the 5 + 5 amendment was done in the committee's capacity as "drafter," it was not subject to ERISA's fiduciary standards. "[A]n employer when it does so it makes a corporate management decision, unrestricted by ERISA's fiduciary duties." Haberern, 24 F.3d at 1498 (citation omitted). The fact that the 5 + 5 amendment may have "discriminated" against plaintiffs by denying them benefits extended to employees who retired under the Directors' Program is immaterial. 97, 77 L.Ed.2d 490 (1983); accord Owin order to state a claim under ERISA, "[i]t is insufficient merely to allege discrimination in the apportionment of benefits under the terms of the plan."); McGann v.

I like a lot of Prince, but I've never cared too much for this song.
The whole "horse" thing he has going on...it's like he's a 12 year-old boy who is way too impressed with himself for discovering what a metaphor is.
The stupidest line ever in a song: "she had a pocket full of horses/Trojans and some of them used." But then he keeps going and going with the horses, jockeys, etc.
At one point after I sang the line (which is hard to sing loud and uninhibited at night in a quiet house when your family is sleeping) "I'm going to try to tame your little red love machine," I said, "'cause it's a vagina!" but I took it out because the song was already shaping up to be goofy enough.
Anyhow, I kind of went for a Sun Studios sort of thing.
Another one for the "BetterThanTheOriginal" tag. What did you use for the bass on this one?
The choice of the "Sun" sound was very cool, and you got it down perfectly. And you are up to three requests now, what speed, I gotta catch up.
Man, I've never liked this song either, but I do now.
I am in awe of your productivity. You're like a musical Dickens.
That was most unexpectedly cool.
David Lynch and Django Reinhardt drink Ouzo out of Prince's navel. Gold.
Thanks guys. I felt kind of embarrassed of this one this morning, like a musical hangover. It was done so quick and just posted right away; I regretted it today, like a drunk dial or something.
mica: why, that's my giant standup bass, can't you tell? Garageband "upright bass" played thru midi with the Moog.
I had to do several tracks of those low, moany background vocals, over and over, trying to sound like the Jordinaires. This morning my wife said she had a dream last night that there was some kind of animal moaning in the alley beside our house. She maid the noise and it was exactly my moany singing.
I caught myself really paying attention to the lyrics since you mentioned the horses/trojan thing.
This is REALLY smooth. Diggin' it!
I can't believe you feel embarrassed of it. And the garageband bass does the job alright, doesn't it? This weekend I recorded the bass of that other song with an acoustic guitar and then modified it with a software, some bars it sounds ok, some bars it sounds like an electric and some bars it sounds like a cheap keyboard. A 21st century schizoid bass.
I smiled -- I'm listening to all the cover requests in a row, and I was like, "what song is this?" Nice.
HAHAHAHA! Best effing cover ever!

Yashar [7:20]d "2×45" do"Yashar." ar's "Eddie's Out."
In May of 1983, Factory Records released the only "single" from "2×45," in John Robie's remixes of "Yashar." Tthe "Eddie's Out/Jazz The Glass" 12″/7″ combo and "2×45." Early exposure to "The Voice Of America""Yashar""Eight Crepuscule Tracks" "t"'s voice "passing for female." Alan Fish'no was added to the mix along with some drum machine percussion hits. Synth crescendoes were also added as the top heavy mix threatened to wobble completely off the rails.
I do like how he isolated the bass synth, sounding here not a million miles away from the kind used on "Sensoria." I'm less convinced by the soprano doubling the main synth leitmotif. Or the intrusive shouts of the title [not shouted by any member of the band] or the "over here" pitch shifted vocal drop-ins. Ultimately, the many overdubs used here arrived at a "hit and miss" aesthetic that listening to now sounds potentially jarring and compromised. One addition that I think worked was the elka string topline that added melodic complexity to the frankly minimal song. Enough to take it into single worthy territory though the end result was like lipstick and makeup crudely added to glossies of the traditionally unsmiling band. While the A-side mix was done within a year of the song's release, it sounds like a typical post-modern mix, perhaps made years after the original. The overall effect is not unlike the shock of hearing "Blue Monday '88" for the first time. In fact, it seems like Quincey Jones completely stole every technique from Robie's playbook here to the same deleterious effect.
There was a reason why the B-side 5:00 dub mix was included on "Eight Crepuscule Tracks;" it's a rather effective dub mix! The sound didn't cross the disco line in the sand that was premature on the A-side for such a doom-laden piece of late early [?] period Cab Volt. Okay, so the soprano was still here but all other added vocals were excised. The drum track was beefed up with dubby echo that made the track more psychedelic. Another addition I liked was the distorted metallic noises that sounded like stressed metal about to rip.
One thing that is apparent while listening to this again decades later, is that it was absolutely a harbinger of the band's fertile imperial period that officially began four months later when the now iconic duo of Kirk and Mallinder released "The Crackdown" on Some Bizzare/Virgin and were far more successful in meeting the industrial funk dancefloor on their own terms. If the somewhat compromised Robie mix of "Yashar" had any impact on Stevo thinking he could sign this band profitably, then it was perhaps acquitted by history.
Afraid I'm a massive fan of John Robie and Yashar slips right in well with his remixes of New Order which I adore. I get that it's all a bit much – kitchen sinks mentality on display here – but it lends itself to a feeling that the band was embracing new directions and took an all or nothing stance with using Robie… This is Cross-Atlantic Electro and it's over the top and sublime…
Echorich – I find I much prefer Robie painting over New Order, who lack the menacing undercurrent of Cab Volt. Cab Volt need malevolent power even on their funk workouts; not garish frippery. That said, you hit the nail on the head with your "all or nothing" remark. There's no subtlety left though the final product remains ambiguous. Ambiguity being a chief CV trait.
Hint on how high I hold Robie, my blog's name is a tribute to his Soul Sonic Force track, Looking For The Perfect Beat.
I like the electronics and cut up sampling of Robie's verison of The Cab's Don Argue as well.
Robie is truly the unsung hero of Electro. He is the music behind Planet Rock, Hip Hop Be Bop, the "engineer" (this means he cleaned up Baker and Benitez production) on New Order's Confusion, NYC A GoGo remix by The Armoury Show (making them almost palatable for me) the music behind Freeez's gigantic I.O.U.,C-Bank's Get Wet and so many other tracks that were the clubbing soundtrack of early 80's NYC.

Does CBD get you high? That’s one of the most common questions we’re asked.
If you’re one of 40 million people affected by anxiety in the US then you’re at least aware of the growing CBD market. In addition to oil, you can now find everything from CBD-flavored toothpaste and toothpicks to CBD mascaras and hair pomade.
CBD stands for Cannabidiol and it’s a substance found in marijuana. This naturally-occurring substance has been used in oils, foods, and cosmetic products for decades at this point.
Unsurprisingly, the same year, the market for CBD and similar products grew by 260%. By the end of 2018, the market surpassed $10 billion.
The experts are predicting a bright future for the CBD market. The BDS project researchers predict that the market will grow immensely in the following few years. As Forbes reports, by 2024.
The cannabis plant has hundreds of ingredients, however, the two main ones are CBD and THC. The latter occurs in the largest quantities in cannabis.
Naturally, CBD is only found in traces. In the last few years, cannabis growers have started cultivating plants with higher CBD contents.
Now, while both substances are psychoactive, only THC can get you high because it’s an intoxicant.
- THC is also Intoxicant: The substances diminish your physical and mental abilities similar to hard drugs such as opioids and alcohol.
To conclude: CBD may be a psychoactive substance, however, it won’t give you a feeling of being highwo substances, we should go o CBD.
1. What Are the Effects of CBD?
3. How Long Does It Take CBD to Kick In?
Even though the effects last similarly to THC effects, it takes a lot longer for CBD to take effect. While your body can feel the effects of THC right away, it takes more than 60 minutes for you to feel CBD. The time also depends on the way CBD and the body act together. Once you realize how long it takes for CBD to take effect, you’ll be able to take your dosage during the day and even drive a car.
Making sure that the edibles and vapes you plan on ingesting are free of THC will ensure that you start your CBD therapy the right way.
So, does CBD get you high? No. The question we’re left with is, should you use CBD? The answer depends on your needs. You shouldn’t try CBD if you’re looking to get high. That one’s easy. People who want to treat anxiety should look into CBD after talking to their doctorts:
- NIDA research shown that it can reduce stress in small animals
- Journal of Psychopharmacology revealed that it can treat PTSD symptoms
- Journal of Psychiatric Research stated that it can have antipsychotic effects
With that said, we still can’t stress enough. Nonetheless, you can rest assured that CBD won’t get you high if you decide to use it. It may be psychoactive, however, CBD isn’t intoxicating at all.
Head over to our shop and see which CBD products are right for you!

In the Maison et Objet show in Paris this year (one of the best shows in the world) it was evident that many suppliers had introduced mixtures of wood and metal into their new collections. I also noticed that whilst we were highly individual last year, there seemed to be a huge number of companies making derivatives of Halo?
“My Mulberry washbag goes everywhere with me, and has done for about the last 18 years!I think it is now as authentic as some of our furniture!”
My last holiday was in Tuscany, we stayed in a delightful B&B called Ankhura Ankhura in a village called Monterongriffoli. It is run by a Scandinavian couple who offered cookery classes and the chance to prepare dinner for the other guests. It was a real Masterclass in Tuscan cooking, and great fun ?probably for the added opportunity to sample their comprehensive wine cellar whilst I was cooking!We also loved a restaurant called La Locanda del Castello in Giovanni d’Asso, near Siena. The rwhich itself is within the ancient walls of the hamlet. It was a real experience to enjoy some of their local specialities that really are produced on the doorstep. The fact that Italians love their interiors too makes the visit extra special!

A recent review gave Sub Rosa 5 stars!
Reading Writing teaches an entire system of analyzing handwriting. It will take some memorization and you'll have to sharpen your skills at recognizing the subtle differences, but there are single sleight of hand moves that take far longer to master.
What's The book explains mentalism "experiments" regarding: determining favorites, lie detection, a prediction, a book test, matching writing to a person and more. There are also angles on classics such as ambitious card.
I's "Reading Writing" I'll sign to it.
Ariel Frailich recently posted about the convention. It would be nice if the memories could all be collected in one place.
Magic is theatre, not circus. With proper attention to presentation, we can invoke any emotion we want, we can show who we are, we can become real people instead of cardboard cut-outs. Then we become unique, uncopyable, and with any luck, in demand. It's the difference between people saying, "I saw Ariel perform", rather than, "I saw a guy do card tricks".
For those of you who won't be able to attend the Reading Writing book signing party at The Browser's Den on Sunday, I understand that Full Circle Magic is doing a Q&A with Ariel on Facebook, Monday May 6 at 5PM EST.
BONUS: FREE TICK SHEET TEMPLATE FOR THOSE WHO BUY THE BOOK OR PICK UP THEIR BOOK ON THIS DAY.
Mr. Ariel Frailich author of past best-selling magic books has finally finished his latest work after almost 4 years of work. It is one of the most unique books for magicians, mentalists and hobbyists I have ever seen. READING WRITING is hardcover and 196 pages in length and loaded with illustrations.

Toronto's wonderful magic shop, the Browser's When Jeff invited me to perform at the July 2nd meeting, I was at a bit of a loss as to what to show. In my experience, young people who start out in the contemporary 'flash and flourish' school of magic consider our older, 'hide-your-skill' style passé. This is hardly surprising, as their idols put forth the idea that a magic performance is a display of dexterity. Hence, every gesture must be flashy, every action must be a flourish.
I asked myself: what could I show that wouldn't be greeted by stifled yawns and polite applause?
I 'Rise, rise, rise!'"old school" techn"new school"'r'sIt was a success. I caught their interest and fooled them. I got oohs and ahhhs, laughter, applause -- and even a minor avalanche of questions, for they were eager to learn. I showed them that "old school" magic may not be as passé as they had thought. I taught them a few techniques that they can use. And I showed them that magic without obvious displays of skill can look very magical indeed'"new school" 'n.

a microlesion.15 Facts supporting this hypothesis are that (1) an acute decline in some executive functions is observed in the days after surgery37 or in the absence of STN stimulation,38 and (2) similar cognitive side effects exist, whatever the surgical target, i.e., the STN or the globus pallidus interna.6,7,38
Stimulation of the more ventral (limbic) part of the STN induced hypomania, as previously reported in both patients with PD11,12 and patients with psychiatric disorders.30 Hypomania was mainly observed in younger patients, those with shorter disease duration, and those with a higher levodopa responsiveness, i.e., a disease dopaminergic dysregulation.39 Conversely, postoperative depression was not found to be related to electrode location, but to the presence of a preoperative depression, parkinsonian mental deficit, and axial motor signs, as previously reported.40
The STN, therefore, and not the surrounding areas, appears to be the ideal target to improve motor disability in patients with PD. This technique may provoke memory or emotional disturbances, especially if the electrodes are too ventral in the STN. This confirms the role of the STN in motor and nonmotor processing and its possible importance in nonmotor diseases.

I’ve been stalling on this one for awhile.
My training as a scientist had blinded me.
Several years ago while I was taking some time off from my booth at the Toronto Total Health Show I came across a sacred bookseller. Her booth was so “energetic” I was compulsively drawn to it.
When I returned home I started kinesiology testing my racks of books (and I have a lot of them).
I own quite a number of sacred texts and writings from around the world.
Some versions do much better than others. My top 3 favourites in order are:
Here is a sampling of some more books that will increase your energy or even help you to meditate just by having them in your life:
- The Way To Love by Anthony De Mello
- Whispers Of The Beloved by Rumi
- Serenity Prayers by June Cotner
- A Course In Miracles by Foundation For Inner Peace
- Tao Te Ching translation by Gia-Fu Feng & Jane English. I have another translation of this text which does not test well.

"Designing Classic Grotesque was more complex than I had anticipated," McDonald said. "This was largely because I initially based my design solely on the early Monotype Grotesques. As a result, elements of the Arial® design – which also has its roots in the 1926 sans serif typefaces – kept intruding into my design. Then one day I realized that all I had to do was go back to the same typefaces that Monotype had used to develop the Grotesques. After that, Arial ceased to be a problem and I found myself working on a new design inspired by three classic sans serifs: the Ideal Grotesk, Venus™ and Monotype Grotesque designs. As if by magic, I also discovered that this was what I had wanted to do all along."

and Jedi Order invaded and devastated Mandalorian Space[7]—surpassed even the Republic's onslaught on their worlds. With the pacifistic New Mandalorian regime ascending to power, the Mandalorians' ancient warrior traditions were forced under the thumb of peace. Yet, there were some by the name of the Aka'liit, translated from Mando'a as the "Faithful," who refused to let the old ways atrophy. Determined to preserve their cultural heritage, the Faithful secretly continued to pass the ancient traditions from generation to generation.[1]
The following centuries tested the unity of the Faithful, with disagreements and divisions spawning conflicts like a crusade against the Ithullan species. The breaking point came[1] in the year 60 BBY,[2] when two opposing factions attained prominence: the reformist True Mandalorians and the violent and reactionary Death Watch.[8] The ensuing Mandalorian Civil War claimed many lives, culminating with the massacre of the True Mandalorians at the Battle of Galidraan[9] of 44 BBY.[10] However, the Mandalorian Civil War did little to mend some growing rifts back on Mandalore, the heart of Mandalorian Space, where squabbles between the Mandalorian clans were quickly intensifying.[1]
- "But even as Mereel's ideas died on Galidraan, Mandalore was in flames. The Great Clan Wars had begun. We declared ourselves and sought to rally our kinsmen to our standard, but we were too few, weakened by petty clan disputes that had flared into conflagrations while the fight with the True Mandalorians distracted us."
Satine Kryze, protected by then–Padawan Obi-Wan Kenobi, ended the Great Clan Wars.
Around 44 BBY,[3] the inter-clan dissension on Mandalore reached a boiling point, erupting into all-out civil war.[1] Multiple warlords turned on each other, with their clans and even families caught in the middle of the crossfire.[6] Although the Death Watch, under the command of the warrior Tor Vizsla, entered the conflict in an attempt to garner public support, it too had suffered from the clan disputes.[1] The battles that followed resulted in many deaths and further devastation to the Mandalorian homeworld.[6]
Amidst the fighting, the warlord of Clan Kryze sent his daughter, Satine Kryze, to the Republic capital of Coruscant for diplomatic training. After her father died in the conflict, Kryze became the best hope to save her clan. As she gained leadership over the New Mandalorians,[6] the Jedi High Council assigned her two bodyguards for her return to the embattled Mandalore:Jinn and Kenobi's mission to protect Kryze lasted a full year, as the insurgents opposed to her rule sent bounty hunters after the young duchess. Kryze and her Jedi allies were forced off-world at times,[5] taking refuge on nearby planets such as Draboon.[5][11] Kryze and Kenobi's shared time together shaped a budding romance between the two, a bond that was complicated by their greater commitments.[5] Ultimately, Kryze was able to convince the majority of the war-weary clan chieftains and warriors involved to adopt the pacifism of her regime, ending all hostilities[6] prior to 32 BBY.[4]
Though defeated, the Death Watch kept working against the New Mandalorians.
In the episode, the conflict was merely identified as a "civil war,"[5] which left it open to interpretation as to whether it was a reference to the Mandalorian Civil War from the 2002 comic Jango Fett: Open Seasons[9] or an entirely new event. It was confirmed to be the latter in Jason Fry's 2012 young readers' book Darth Maul: Shadow Conspiracy, which named and detailed the conflict.[6] Further information on the event has since been published in 2013'st.[1]
The Official Star Wars Fact File Part 17, released in 2014, contradicted much of the information from The Bounty Hunter Code. Instead of depicting Kryze's rise to power during the Great Clan Wars, The Official Star Wars Fact File placed Kryze's ascension as during the twenty-six years of the preceding Mandalorian Civil War, with no direct reference to the Great Clan Wars.[12] Due to the timeline of events established in The Bounty Hunter Code, this article assumes that The Official Star Wars Fact File is in mentioned)

We had very violent rainstorms here in Virginia today. Since this is a low lying area, there were many flash floods all over the area. I’m just surprised that the power didn’t go out like it did last month when we had a tropical storm. When the power goes out around here, it goes out- aka, it doesn’t come back on for at least a couple of days.
Benedict refused her request because he didn’t want to break his own Rule byca asked God to let her brother remain and a severe thunderstorm broke out, preventing Benedict from returning to the abbey.
I have confidence that St. Scholastica’s prayers are as effective at making storms fizzle out just as her prayers had the power to create a storm! Thus, for anyone else who is in a similar situation or facing a hurricane, tropical storm, etc., try praying to St. Scholastica!

Introduction: Snoring is common in the general population, with up to 25 of women and 45 of men reporting habitual snoring. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is frequent and affects 4 and 2 of middle-aged men and women respectively. In some study, Snorke in men and women. Epidemiologic studies in Caucasian populations have shown association of snoring and sleep apnea with vascular disease. We examined whether snoring was directly related to cardiovascular disease. Methods: This article was case-control study. All patients underwent cardiac vessel angiography in two catheter labs in Qom hospitals. 92 patients were normal or minimal stenosis (<50) and another 92 patients were with 1, 2 or 3 vessels disease. Then Berlin questionnairewas completeed by and compare two groups and analyzed using and the P Value less than (�0.05)was consideredstatistically significant. SPSS16 software. Results: mean ageof patients was  55.83± 10.83,and 64.1 118 (64.1) patients were femalesnoring with coronary artery disease (P=0.349). In the other hand, there are significant relationship between snoring and hypertension (P<0.001) and between risk factor of (P=0.008). However, we didn't show prominent relationship between snoring and diabetes mellitus also between snoring also hyperlipidemia (P=0.853, P=0.214 respectively) Conclusion: according to this study, in spite to correlation among risk factors, simple snoring was no.

Andre Villas Boas expects to be firee 33-year-old Portuguese was hired last week as Chelsea’s seventh manager in eight years after quitting Porto.
Asked about the “Special One” tag adopted by one-time mentor Jose Mourinho, Villas-Boas instead styled himself as the “Group One” with a collective mentality.
If that doesn’t materialise, Villas Boas acknowledged that his tenure at Stamford Bridge could be brief.ay,” the 33-year-old said at his official presentation on Wednesday.
“I will be surprised to be kept on the job if I don’t win.
“The expectations of the club are at the maximum. No dre’s nothing that the owner told me that I didn’t
Villas Boas rated coaches by winning three trophies with Porto last season, including the Portuguese league, in his one year in charge.
“It was a difficult separation. It’” said Villas Boas, who revealed he received offers from other leading clubs in Europe.
“I always felt well in Porto …“…. But this was a bigger challenge.
He said he wouldn’t necessarily make drastic changes to Chelsea’s ageing squad, rejecting opinions it was short of quality after failing to land a trophy last season.
“I agree that minor changes can be done and we can put some input here or there in certain sectors, but my confidence in the players is for them to return to me and judge from there,” Villas Boas said.
Villas Boas also hopes to have autonomy in the transfer market, something that hasn’t happened at the club recently and which was a key factor behind the departure of Mourinho four years ago.
Villas Boas, who announced former star Roberto Di Matteo as his assistant, also said he hoped his teams would entertain.
Villas Boas has already raided Porto to appoint Jose Mario Rocha in the backroom staff.

The Truth about the First Month
First of all, let me say that I absolutely love being a mom. There is nothing better than staring into your child's eyes, watching his every expression, and wondering how in the world I am lucky enough to be blessed with a son. However, I'd be lying if I said this past month was cake.
When I say that the 5 days I supplemented were some of the worst days of my life I really don't think I am exaggerating. First of all, it was extremely emotional for me to give my baby formula after fighting so hard to prevent supplementation from being necessary. I felt like a failure as a mom for not being able to give my baby what he needed and desperately missed being able to breast feed him. I had to pump my milk, put it in a bottle and add formula to it. Evan immediately became more fussy, more gassy, and spit up what seemed like constantly. He was uncomfortable and it broke my heart. I knew it was best for him though and pushed forward feeding him every two hours, even at night, and handing him off to Frank immediately after each feeding so I could try to pump enough milk for the next feeding. When I wasn't able to produce enough for the next feeding I had to give formula to Evan which I desperately tried to avoid. I had to rent a hospital grade breast pump and was a slave to it during that time since I had to pump about two times in between each feeding to produce enough milk for the next feeding.
So, all that being said...the first month was not a piece of cake. It was the most challenging, grueling, and the most beautiful and rewarding lesson I think I've ever learned so far. I am so thankful that I had to go through this challenge and I hope one day I can be an inspiration and a support to someone else who has to endure a similar struggle. a new mother struggling to breastfeed, here is what I've learned:
4. Don't underestimate your instincts. I've only been a mom for a month and I've learned if you really tune into your baby you can learn so much about him/her. This whole experience really taught me about listening to Evan and tuning into his needs and also listening to my own motherly instincts that I really believe God gives to us to help us know what our babies need.

Well said. I think our more "natural" embracing culture sometimes has the unintentional outcome that we try, as moms, to cling to what we have decided is best or right, when sometimes that can lead us into worse situations. I also tried not to have to give formula to my kids, I enjoy breastfeeding, but its demoralizing in when you're covered in spitup and poop and trying to pump and haven't slept more than 45 minutes at a time in days. and that little break of someone else giving your little one a bottle (or cleaning your bathroom, or giving your baby a bath so you can nap, etc.) can be SO rejuvenating. It's hard to remember sometimes that it's not really about what I want, but about what's best for my baby AND myself. And often, that's hard to adjust to. Glad you made it through :)

- Create a new file in `/layouts/partials/` called `gs-metadata.html`
- Copy the following code and paste it into the `gs-metadata.html` file
<meta name="citation_title" content="{{ .Title }}">{{ range .Params.authors }}
<meta name="citation_author" content="{{ . }}">{{ end }}{{ with .Params.doi }}
<meta name="citation_publication_doi" content="{{ .Params.doi }}">{{ end }}
<meta name="citation_publication_date" content="{{ .Params.date }}">{{ with .Params.pdf }}
<meta name="citation_pdf_url" content="{{ .Params.pdf }}">{{ end }}
Templates also allow you to loop over fields with multiple values and apply conditional logic. For example, the `range` function is used to iterate over a list of items, like authors. For each author, the template will create a new `<meta>` tag with the `name="citation_author"` attribute until all authors have been added. The `with` function is similar to `if` statements in other programming languages. In this example, `with` checks to see if the page has defined a `doi` in the YAML front-matter. If so, then Hugo will create a `<meta>` tag with the `name=citation_doi` attribute. Hugo has an extensive list of [functions](https://gohugo.io/functions/) for [creating templates](https://gohugo.io/templates/introduction/).
Once you've created the file and saved the site, test it by running `hugo server` in a terminal and opening `https://localhost:1313` in a web browser. Because we are editing web page metadata, and not web page content, we can see the changes we are making by viewing the source of the web page in our browser. You can view the source of any web page by right-clicking the page in your web browser and selecting the `View page source` option. The Google Scholar metadata we are adding to our demo website will appear near the top of the page when you're viewing the page source.
This concludes the introductory tutorial on static site generators with [Hugo](https://gohugo.io/). **Congrats!** The following sections are intended to provide guidance on publishing and archiving static websites in a real-world contexts.
**Looking for more training and exercises?** Check out the workshop by [<NAME>](https://github.com/kaitlinnewson) and [<NAME>](https://github.com/kimpham54) from the Code4Lib 2018 conference.
## Appendix I: Tips for Publishing Static Websites to the Web
Static site generators can build your website to a _local_ or _production_ server environment.
- **Local Environtment**: This is sometimes called a _development_ environment. When we've been previewing our site with the `hugo server` command, we've been using the _local_ environment. With this environment, the `hugo server` command turns our machines into mini web servers that host and deliver the website in our web browsers at a `localhost` URL.
- **Production Environment**: When we're ready to deploy the website online, we need to use a different command for a _production_ server environment. With Hugo, this command is simply `hugo`. The `hugo` command will create a new subfolder in your project called `public` that will contain all of the final HTML, CSS, JavaScipt, images, and other asset files (e.g. PDFs, datasets, etc.) you need to have a fully-functioning static website.
One of the primary differences between the `hugo` command and the `hugo server` command is how it handles URLs and permalinks. With `hugo server`, all of the URLs will be relative to a Base URL called `https://localhost:1313` by default. The `hugo` command, however, will set all of your URLs and Permalinks according to whatver you set as the `baseURL` value in the `config.yml` file. The `baseURL` refers to the hostname and path address to your website. For example, if you purchased the `https://example.com` domain name for your website, this line would be in your `config.yml` file: `baseURL: https://example.com`. The `baseURL` can also be a subdomain (`baseURL: https://conference.example.com`) or a subdirectory of a website (`baseURL: https://example.com/conference/`).
While deploying to a production server can get complicated, we don't need to worry about the server meeting specific software or operating system requirements. We just need to be able to upload static file to it. Here are some popular static website hosting options and some tips on using them:
[GitHub](https://github.com) is a platform for hosting [Git](https://git-scm.com/) repositories containing source code for software packages. It's popular website for finding open source projects communicating with users of specific pieces of software. [GitHub Pages](https://pages.github.com/) is a **free** static website hosting service offered to users of the [GitHub](https://github.com) platform.
The following steps will show you how to move your website files to GitHub and deployed publicly on GitHub Pages. This is intended to demonstrate the process of moving a locally developed static website online; this is not a recommend workflow for static site deployments (more on that below).
_In your Hugo Project Files_
1. Open the `config.yml` file and add the valye for the `baseURL` field. Use `https://YOURUSERNAME.github.io/conference-proceedings/` where `YOURUSERNAME` is replaced with your GitHub username
2. Run: `hugo` to build your site to the `public` directory
_In GitHub_
3. Login to GitHub
4. Create a New repository: Title menu `+` > `New Repository`
5. Enter `conference-proceedings` in the `Repository Name` field
6. Click on `Create Repository`; this will display many options to add files to the repository
7. Click on the link that says: `upload an existing file`
8. Upload all of the files within the `public` directory to the Github repository. It is important that the `index.html` file is at the root of your of repository. Do not upload the public folder itself; upload the files within the `public` folder
9. Click on the `Commit` button. This will upload your website files, which might take a few moments.
10. When the upload is complete, click on the `Settings` tab
11. Scroll down to the `GitHub Pages` section
12. In the `Source` drop-down menu, select `main`, make sure that `/(root)` path is selected, then click save.
13. This will deploy your website to this URL: `https://YOUR_USERNAME.github.io/conference-proceedings`
This is all you need to do to manually deploy a website using the GitHub Pages service. Static site generators, like open source software in general, make heavy use ofoftware. What we just did was intended to demonstrate a manual deployment of a static website to a public web server. As a reference, here's what a more common workflow would look like:
1. Create your website's project folder: `hugo new site new-website-name`
2. Change directories into the website folder: `cd new-website-name`
3. Initialize a Git repository: `git init`
4. Create and edit your website locally (just as we did earlier in this tutorial)
5. Upload your local Git repository to GitHubnew-website-name.git
6. Set up an automated deployment workflow that pushes a new build of your website to a server with every change to the git repository on GitHub.
By storing your source code in a GitHub-hosted repository, you can deploy static sites directly to GitHub Pages or third-party services like Netlify for free.
The Hugo Documentation includes a lot of [hosting and deployment

Phyllis, our longtime friend!It is so good to hear from you!Yes, Pan pastels are great to use when painting a large sky, ocean, or grassy field…I recommend that they are a great alternative to regular pastel chalks in the over-all color coverage and quick use…especially for those students that tire quickly of filling in areas or are impatient like Nana!

Gala Bingo Win Described As ‘Life Saving’
Posted on April 5, 2017 by Jessica Fish
So how exactly could a Gala Bingo win be life-saving? Could it be that it was to pay for specialist treatment not covered by the NHS? If so it would have to be quite substantial….
No, the win was just £2.50 but the winner, Tom McLoughlin who is 56 and a bus driver, attributes the win to saving his life.
How Did A Gala Bingo Win Save A Life Or Three?
Mr McLoughlin had been at the Gala Bingo hall in Croft Retail Park and got lucky with his little win. Whilst most of us wouldn’t be overly impressed, it was the delay in collecting his winnings that may well have saved his life and that of his son and daughter in law.
You see Mr McLoughlin lives on Bebington Road, a road that saw a massive gas explosion happen on 25th March.
Had he not been delayed by collecting his winnings, the family may well have suffered serious injury, or worse still, loss of life in the explosion!
Turning in to his road he was greeted with scenes of devastation having arrived before the emergency services on the evening of 25th March.
He picks up the story by saying
Ours was the first car coming up Boundary Road; we were very, very, very lucky! The explosion must have happened just seconds before we turned the corner. Thank goodness my first Gala Bingo win happened that day!
It may have only been £2.50 that kept us from leaving earlier, but considering what has happened, it feels like winning the lottery.

Being invited to a wedding is a fun and exciting thing to look forward to, and for many, it starts with the question "What should I wear?
Nobody likes a clown, especially during something like a wedding, but you can still be funny and stylish in a more subtle way. Think of parts of your wardrobe that aren't seen at all times: the lining of your jacket, your socks, the back of your tie and the under part of your shirt collar. These are the places you can "hide" something fun, like a pattern, pop of color or even a funny message. The fact that it's only visible sometimes will cause an "Oh, look at that – that's clever!

terrified of physicians. We chatted, and when she found out that I was a doctor, she freaked, so the family asked that I pretend to be a grandson.”
Once Flynn did, the dementia patient was fully cooperative. “I’m going to college, Grandma, so hope you don’t mind if I practice on you to take your blood pressure,” said Flynn gently as he examined the elderly patient. When the good doctor started to ask questions, the elderly woman became suspicious.
The warning signs of dementia are: repetition of stories, language problems, personality changes, dis-orientation and confusion, lack of hygiene and odd behavior. Many primary care physicians who diagnose their patients with dementia or Alzheimer’s refer their clients to specialists – typically neurologists or physicians in geriatric medicine – like, Flynn. “There have been a couple of cases where the patients were diagnosed with dementia, but after further testing, they didn’t have the illness, they had more problems than expected.” If a family member needs someone to help delineate problem solving, they see Flynn. “I am able to give them more of my time. I spend 1.5 hours per patient, most of whom are referrals from their primary care physicians,” he says.
The challenge is that there are numerous elders in our state who have not received any kind of care at all, not until they hit a crisis and end up in the emergency room. Some have no family members to keep an eye on them; others are on the edge where they shed weight and their refrigerator has a lot of bad, moldy food. “It’s a major crisis, because if they don’t have family, there are not a lot of options for them, unless they have enough financial resources to pay for private care, assisted living, nursing home or care home,” says Flynn.

The association’s Five Core Program includes: Information and Referral, Educational Classes, Support Groups, Care Consultation and Medic Alert, and Safe Returns, involving ID bracelets. Call 591-2771.
Other agencies, such as St. Francis Home Care Services, can come in to help with bathing, and Meals on Wheels assists seniors who have a difficult time obtaining groceries.
Flynn believes baby boomers can expect a “Silver Tsunami” on the horizon – a tsunami where a large group of our population living out their golden years will include a huge wave of dementia patients, some of whom may be our dearest friends and loved ones. </s> ‘We are backing our bowlers to do the job’
Electing to bat, the Virat Kohli-led India scored 239 for no loss on the opening day as Shikhar Dhawan (150 not out) and Murali Vijay (89 not out) demolished the Bangladeshi attack, which comprises four specialist spinners. Ashwin said the Indian bowlers will certainly do better than their Bangladeshi counterparts when their time comes.
“I think it’s an individual perception, they probably saw the wicket in a way they wanted to see it and we are seeing it in a different way. We have got bowlers who can exploit with 140 kmph plus, if there is a bit of reverse swing,” Ashwin said at the press conference after the opening day’s play.
“As far as I see it, c it is very hard. Youd,” said 28-year-old Ashwin. “We have played five bowlers and we will look at the best possible result. If the time is there and if we bowl really well and we get a little bit of help and a little bit of luck then we can force a result. We will control the controll </s> Impact capital outlay.

I keep getting this message when I try to print the Shipping Label.
The label contains the “Ship From” and “Ship to” addresses.

Hence, we request you to fill the “Ship From Address Preference” details and also all Origin Address details including city, state, postcode, etc. </s> Developments to enhance your staff profile
Easily personalise your staff profile to create a landing page that highlights your teaching and research expertise
Rather than simply functioning as a contact page, a staff profile should be seen as an engaging landing page to showcase your expertise. This is important because your profile will likely be the first page a visitor lands on after performing a Google search for your name. First impressions count.
We have made it easier for you to edit your staff page through the same CMS used for editing other webpages. Our developments have combined data from three separate sources – HR's record system, publications pulled from Elements and user-generated CMS content – into a simple to use back end.
You can update your profile by going to and ensuring your content is as engaging as it can be for your key target audiences.
It is now possible to choose up to three members of staff to have delegate access to edit your profile. This is particularly useful if you would like help with uploading images and creating and publishing galleries.
You can now create and add an image gallery, giving you the opportunity to show examples of your teaching and research to visitors to your profile.
Have a project to share? A new book published? Is your latest collection of work available to share? If so, you can feature this in four different types of image galleries.
The Digital and content team will be notified when a user updates or adds a gallery to their staff profile page.
We have created a new publication feature that can be shown within your staff profile, which uses up to six highlights from your publications in Elements.
If you choose to highlight your publications, they will appear at the bottom of your staff profile biography page, and also at the top of the 'publications' tab of your profile. If no publications are featured, then the highlights section on a staff profile will not show.
We have made it easier to highlight your teaching and research areas of expertise by connecting staff profiles with our expert directory for the media.
These relevant areas of expertise (e.g. marine pollution, robotics) will show on your profile beneath your photo.
This greater transparency will help a member of the media know how to contact you about your expertise so that they can request an interview.
In the CMS edit view of your profile there is now a checkbox to confirm if you would like research groups to show. Search from the list and choose all relevant ones.
This is another simple and useful way to showcase your research expertise.
As well as it being easier to update your biography, teaching and research interests and publications, social media fields have been added to yourOrcid.
Considering how professionals use social media accounts to communicate news and share knowledge, linking to your accounts is a fantastic way to let visitors easily connect with you and explore your full range of research, news and opportunities for engagement.

I hasten to explain - people do wince - that not since Dynasty went off the air have I been so reliably assured of an hour's side-splitting hilarity.
Life is hard. Spartacus is spectacularly silly - and unlike antidepressants, comes with no pesky side effects.
One was illustrated by a photo of rock singer Jamie Hince wearing cut-offs and nothing else. The caption takes him to task for revealing too much leg. Honestly, he doesn't. There's nothing remotely obscene or suggestive about these shorts, and in the context - he's at the beach - Hince is appropriately attired. Elsewhere, there's an amusing picture of fashion designer Marc Jacobs striking a Bettie Page pose, while wearing small, tight bathing trunks. They're not quite Speedos, but nearly, and luckily he's got the figure for them. But the caption squeals, "Put it away, already."
What gives with our ridiculous double standards? When and why did it become acceptable to the point of being de rigueur to display women's secondary sex characteristics, while at the same time we deem it shockingly poor taste to even hint at a penis?
Spartacus is full of well oiled muscles and taut buttocks, but has thus far featured just one instance of full frontal male nudity. We were invited to linger lasciviously - and not before time, I say! During most of the rest of the transmission I'm seeing more naked female breasts than pass through your average mammography clinic in the course of a year.
For every advert starring David Beckham's tantalising bulging pants, there are dozens featuring actually naked and near-naked women. Illogically, even women's magazines are guilty of this, parading as much lady flesh as an issue of Zoo in both adverts and editorial.
In the world of pop music, someone seem to have issued a diktat forbidding trousers if you're female. Now I feel as intimately acquainted with the lower regions of Lady Gaga, Florence, Madonna and Beyonc as any gynaecologist.
We treat the penis with respect and something like fear. Why should that be?. How did this become the norm? I say give us more penis or less breast. It's not the nudity, it's the disparity that rankles. So, really, I'm arguing on behalf of equality.
Why should the penis - and by extension, the guy it's attached to - be awarded more dignity than a woman's anatomy? That's a rhetorical question. I know better than to expect a logical answer to a nonsensical state of affairs.

TECHNOLOGICALLY SPEAKING, I'm more of a late bloomer than an early adopter. So I'm just getting around to Skype.
Of course I'd heard of this remarkable free international telephone service that you accessed via the internet. I'd even read about its clever Scandinavian inventors. But part of me, the part tutored in the "no such thing as a free lunch" school of hard knocks, refused to believe there wasn't a catch.
That changed the other week when my brother emailed from Dallas to say they'd signed on for the service, and suggesting that I do the same. Being an obedient older sister (firstborns are so receptive to authority), I did so immediately.
Except I'd forgotten how daft we Randalls can be. The next thing I knew they'd Skyped me and for three fleeting seconds, I glimpsed the sweet, grinning faces of my niece and nephew. I was too slow to respond intelligently and wound up shouting ineffectually at my computer, which, it goes without saying, also lacks a microphone. So I sent a message, instead.

Home » Why Action Films are a Close Cousin to Horror Films
Michele Eggen February 3, 2016 No Comments 31 views 0 likes
t’I’ve been watching a lot of action films myself lately–reacquainting with old ones that I’ve loved for years and discovering new ones that are quickly becoming some of my favorites. These films are a great way to offset all of the horror movies we watch while still staying within a similar genre.
Another thing that these two genres have in common is the violence. A Just like horror fans seem to prefer something practical over something computer-generated, I feel the same way about action films. For it to really be a true action flick, I want the movie to feel gritty and raw, and most importantly, real. In the recent Avengers: Age of Ultron, there’s a huge fight scene in the middle of the movie between Iron Man and the Hulk. They tear through thath as Iron Man tries to subdue the Hulk during an epic rage. The fight goes on for a long time and there are a lot of special effects–and I was bored to tears the whole time I was watching it. I feel the same way about horror films like the Underworld series, for instance. Movies that are as effects-laden as those make me disconnect from what I’m seeing, and it becomes more about style over substance.
What does make me connect when watching either type of film is seeing real people getting into some real shit. I want to see the dust and debris fall from gunshots or explosions. I want to see real people throwing punches and getting all bloody and sweaty. I’m not knocking those aforementioned special effects at all–without them, we would not have been blessed with Terminator 2: Judgment Day. But neither horror movies or action movies should feel so clean all the time. I’m sure Rob Zombie would agree with me on that. The hero or heroine should be a mess by the time it’s all over, so you can really see all that they’ve been through. The action movies of the 80s and 90s (Lethal Weapon, Die Hard, Speed, The Terminator, Desperado, etc.) always seemed to have that “dirty” quality to them, which makes them much more fun to watch because it makes it easier to believe that it’s really happening, and there aren’t all those constant reminders that you are watching a movie. The same is true for horror. Adding to the dirty feel of action movies, let’s not forget that they can be just as gory as horror movies sometimes. People die, and they can die very bloody deaths. The World War II tanker drama Fury has a moment that was more gory and disturbing than any of the horror films I had been watching at the time. Most recently, the mostly quiet, more character-driven western Bone Tomahawk made me literally curse out loud in one very surprising and very disgusting death scene that alone could move it into the realm of a horror film.
There are times, though, when you maybe don’t mind a little style over substance; when a movie may not have everything you want in terms of character development or story, but still delivers the goods anyway. The 2008 film Taken has definitely got some logistical holes in it, but I don’t care. They did the smart thing and took an actor that we already knew and loved–Liam Neeson–and just had him kicking ass all over Europe for two hours. It’s genius, and I love it. But the movie was also shot beautifully and handled with the right skill to really show off the fight sequences. However, if you want to see the best fight choreographyn Gareth Evans’ The Raid: Redemption. I actually prefer this film over its sequel, though The Raid 2 has just as much martial arts awesomeness in it as its predecessor. Showcasing the silat fighting style of Indonesia, The Raid is a contained action movie with some of the most amazing fight sequences for almost a straight 90 minutes and it is amazing. There are even a couple of unique kills (i.e. the staircase) which should get a horror fan’s blood pumping just as much as their beloved genre films.
I would say that the main thing that brings horror films and action films closer to the viewer’s heart is the characterization. Horror movies are always in danger of being meaningless or less powerful without a strong protagonist to lead us. Our heroes have to be able to kick ass, but they also have to be likable and engaging for the audience to watch. A good action film should also utilize this power of characterization. Peppering in a generous amount of humor, like horror movies often do, can certainly help with this. Who doesn’t love the buddy cop bromance of Will Smith and Martin Lawrence in Bad Boys? I don’t know if Die Hard would be the beloved movie it is today if it wasn’t for John McClane and all his wise-cracking one-liners. However, it isn’t this trait alone that makes us root for him. John isn’t exactly the perfect guy to take on the skilled group of thieves who invade Nakatomi Plaza–he’s all alone and out of his element. He doesn’t even have shoes. It’s the fact that he doesn’t give up, and continues to fight and succeed at every step that makes him a hero that the audience wants to see win. His backstory with his estranged wife and the communications he has throughout the movie with Sergeant Powell on the walkie-talkie also humanize him.
My absolute favorite example of excellent character exploration in an action film is Luc, and always loved it because I thought it was just a cool action flick with a girl the same age as me doing cool stuff. Then when I saw it as an adult, I realized that what elevated the movie above others was the characters of Leon and Mathilda and their relationship. Jean Reno and a young Natalie Portman excel in these roles. Though they are technically criminals, or wannabe criminals (in Portman’s case), we can still see that Leon has a good heart and a strong moral code. Mathilda is the energizing life-force that brings this loner out of his shell and teaches him to love and connect with another human being again. That’s really what the story is about. The fact that this story is wrapped up in an invigorating action movie with Gary Oldman as one of the best villains ever is just icing on the cake.
So if you’re a horror fan that has maybe been avoiding action films like these, give them another shot. You’ll likely find plenty of the elements in these movies that you enjoy from your favorite horror films–plenty of violence and good gory kills, but also strong characters. The two genres really are close cousins, and.

If there is another narrow needle, I think that it is a perfect product. It is handy and convenient.
I threw it on the cab OH and used it by removing clogging of the main jet. Price, ease of use is the best.
