i am having a very severe bout of itchy feet at the moment. and yes, i know that it has been less than a month since my last holiday, but perhaps that is to blame. and it is such a strong feeling that just swirls around inside and drives me crazy and seems insatiable. like when you feel peckish for something to eat, but you're just not quite sure what exactly.
everything around me reminds me of another place and makes me want to escape. i watched fried green tomatoes at the whistlestop café and that made me yearn for the usa and to go to somewhere with a simpler way of life. maybe sans the cannibal barbecuing.
oh but the most powerful and most persistent of them all is the desire to go - not even to go, but to emigrate - to france. maybe i have been spending too much time on pinterest, maybe it is because i watched "a good year" about four years ago and something stuck, but i daydream that we live in an old farmhouse with an orchard, and where the sun is always shining. we have chickens that roam around the courtyard next to our old citroen 2cv. i have an old baby blue bike with a basket on the front and i ride into the village past fields of lavender and pick up french bread and cheese wrapped in paper and chat with the locals. and then we sit and take in the sunset with cheese and wine and silence and it is just pure bliss.
or maybe it is just the winter blues.

Book me as your personal guide and get the most of your trip to Prague.
Lesser Town, the second Prague Quarter founded in 13th century, is considered as the most picturesque part of Prague. It is the least affected by recent history. It is situated on the left riverside Vltava.
The part close to the river is Kampa Island separated from Lesser Town by artificial channel Čertovka (Devil's Stream) where you can see the old watermills. This part is used to be called Prague Venice.
It is also home to Kampa Museum, the art gallery based on Meda Mládková's private collection and focused on central European fine art. It was opened in the presence of Václav Havel, a friend of Meda Mládková, just one year after devastating flood in 2002.
The centre of Lesser Town is Lesser Town Square with magnificent baroque St. Nicholas church. From Lesser Town Square via Neruda Street you will get up to Prague Castle.

Filed under: Fahrenheit, Jpop | Tags: Stay With You
Taiwanese boyband Fahrenheit will make their Japanese debut with the single "Stay With You" to be released on May 21. Well, debut might be pushing it a little – they've already released two Japanese language albums – but "Stay With You" is their first original Japanese single.
Filed under: Base Ball Bear, Jpop
The rock band Base Ball Bear will be releasing "changes" on May 8th. The title song is being used as the ending for the anime Toshokan Senso.
Base Ball Bear is a band that I feel has a generally pleasant sound. All of their songs are good, but few of them really are stand-outs, the kind of song that gets looped endlessly when it comes out. Still, I really like them because I like their sound in general – it's driving while laid-back, rocking while not being overpowered by rock instrumentals, Koide Yusuke's vocals highlighted by Sekine Shiori's in parts, the feeling of the song sometimes bittersweet and always wistful.
Filed under: Johnny's Entertainment, Jpop, NEWS
NEWS' Summer Time PV has been released! I really think I've raved and fangirled about it enough already – twice and the single isn't even close to being released yet – but the PV is out! And the PV is terrific, so terrific. (Click on caps for full size)
Filed under: Johnny's Entertainment, Jpop, NEWS | Tags: RUSS-K, Summer Time
NEWS' next single "Summer Time" will be released May 8th. The title song is used for RUSS-K's summer 08 promotion, which is the third season NEWS has been promoting the brand and the second season their song was used as promotion.
The single covers were released first, and I was a little skeptical of the single quality – it looks like a no-effort design that even photoshop beginners can throw together. Plus, the title sounds extremely generic and cheesy – I mean, really, a song called Summer Time released in the summer time, unique. I was worried that NEWS was being shafted aside with a low budget production.
But then the CM using the song was released, as well as it being played on radio, and I really shouldn't have worried at all.
WaT's new single, "Toki wo Koete ~Fantastic World~" will drop April 23rd.
WaT's releases haven't interested or inspired me for the past year or so. I don't enjoy their solo work, and together they are, for lack of a better term, boring. It's always midtempo, with WaT singing a sweet tune while strumming lightly on their guitars – mellow, cheerful, and unmemorable. I don't even remember what Yume no Tochuu actually sounds like. Still, I hold hope – I enjoyed a lot of their slightly earlier works ("5 Centi" or "Boku no Kimochi"… and I liked "Bokura no Love Story" too) and know that they could make extremely enjoyable and at least slightly inspired pop.
Filed under: Perfume, Television, Variety Show | Tags: HAPPY!, Nishioka Sumiko, Perfume, Tokuzawa Naoko
HAPPY! is a new NTV show on Friday nights hosted by electropop trio Perfume, CanCam model Tokuzawa Naoko, and comedienne Nishioka Sumiko. On the show, they go over celebrity blogs and also have fun information for the girls to play around with. It's something like a high-tension girl's variety show – bringing an odd mix of female celebrities together for interesting show presence and talking about topics girls would enjoy.
I actually don't understand much what the show is about but it's a short lighthearted watch, even if I don't understand much Japanese. It's a five person show, but it's obviously focused on Perfume, and has lots of cute moments with all the girls. …And, let's be honest, it's not like I'm genuinely that interested in celebrity blogs as much as in seeing Perfume. (Sorry for the bad quality screenshots, I youtubed these two episodes.)
Unless you've been completely ignoring J-pop venues for awhile, you'll have heard of these girls: Perfume. Produced by Nakata of Capsule. Electro-pop trio who made it big last year with "Polyrhythm" and even bigger this year with "Baby Cruising Love." Their album "GAME" is going to drop next week.
I am so hyped for this album, more so than any album this year so far – it is going to be FANTASTIC.

Note: Mining for #SolidarityWithPakArmy and #LoveISI stopped on April 27, 2014 at 2pm
Twitter hashtags last week mostly focused on targeting Geo for the statements the channel ran about the military and the chief of the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) agency after the attack on Hamid Mir.
After a short run of the #BanGeo, #ShutUpGeo and #BoycottGeo hashtags, a new one expressing outright support for the military came up.
Ladies and gentlemen, meet #SolidarityWithPakArmy.
Over 12,000 tweets and retweets were mined. The top tweeter was @jeenasirjee with over 200 tweets, followed by @SiddiqueJaan (39 tweets).
Who is @jeenasirjee? Well, the user doesn't have a bio. The profile picture in use right now is a Tahirul Qadri protest march poster.
Their first tweet was sent out on December 11, 2013:

Bonus – #LoveISI
I saw this hashtag used in a couple of tweets so I figured I'll do a short roundup for this as well. Someone tried to get this going (much like the posters in Islamabad) but couldn't get too far.

Business Coaching & Mentoring
Business Coaching has become an important tool for business owners. There is increasing evidence that business coaching is one of the most powerful ways of developing people and adding to bottom line business performance.
Individuals who used a Coach saw improvement in:
Businesses using a Coach report the following benefits:
Some business owners try to save money by limiting their expenditures on training and development because they don't feel training generates immediate bottom line results. However, coaching in business can turn an investment in training into dramatic positive results.
Studies have shown that business coaching can produce over 80% increase in effectiveness of training when added to a training programme.
SME's are turning to business coaching because: (Auerbach, 2005)
Small business owners can feel isolated and therefore can welcome support and challenge from a business coach, someone outside their immediate work environment – especially if coaching and leadership development is not available in-house.
Attendance at all day, or multi-day management development courses can seem impossible in an already busy schedule – and involve significant travel and accommodation expenses. Sessions with a business coach, often conducted over the telephone / skype, can fit around other commitments.
As organisations operate with a "lean" staff – a shortage of time and increased pressure to perform is always present – and a business coach provides "just in time" assistance and individual learning and support.
Business Coaching provides for an individual "thought partner" to help the executive or manager confidentially think through important decisions in an enhanced manner.
The investment for business coaching can pay off many times over, increasing your bottom line, helping you work with renewed passion, getting more done in the same time period by working smarter, and reclaiming your life by adding more work-life balance.
What will be your next step to start working with or bringing business coaching to your organisation?

Introducing Redbourn Care Group – pdf leaflet
Redbourn is known to be a friendly village. Its beautiful rural surroundings, its spacious common, historic High Street, thriving church communities and active social life all make for creating an attractive place to live. Added to this, a highly-rated primary school, excellent nearby secondary schools, and first-rate access to motorways, stations and airports make it a wonderful place for young families as well as older people whose families have flown the nest.
Cricket on the Common, good pubs, a lovely old Norman church, the Chilterns nearby, not to mention St Albans down the road and London a short journey away. We are lucky to live here. And yes, it IS a friendly place. Nevertheless, not everyone in the village is leading a full and happy life. There are those of all ages who have been struck down by illness – stroke, cancer, heart problems – or have been physically disabled by disease or accident. Others are wrestling with poverty, frailty from old age, or are afflicted by loneliness.
Many of you will have seen the Redbourn Care Group minibus busy around the village most days of the week. Driven by a team of volunteers, the minibus provides a lifeline to local people for shopping trips, social outings, post-illness rehabilitation sessions and any manner of activities that alleviate need or loneliness. For a reasonable donation, the minibus is also loaned to organisations in the village, for example, Woollams, Redbourn Singers events, U3A, group or family socials and more.
But the minibus is only the tip of the iceberg. What is far less visible are the hundreds of trips to the hospital, surgery, and dental appointments made every year, not only in the immediate area of the village but to London and other more distant hospitals. These journeys are carried out by around 50 villagers in their own cars, who give up their time to help neighbours needing support. These drivers, and the minibus drivers and their "couriers" on board, are backed up by other volunteers in the Care Office at the Village Hall. Volunteers also look after the minibus routine maintenance, manage our small pool of wheelchairs and scooters lent to those that need them.
Run by villagers for villagers…ensuring that Redbourn's reputation as a friendly, caring, good neighbourly place has real substance. But it does not stop there. Working in hand with local schools, the Care Group has given help to Redbourn children, contributed special equipment needs for young and old, contributed a large sum to help refurbish the playground on the Common and made grants for work at the Moor, at Woollams and St Mary's transept for the Redbourn Day Centre.
Although the Care Group volunteers do not provide at-home care assistance, the objective of the charity and its members is to be a good neighbour to anyone in Redbourn who needs help, whatever their age or creed, with our time and – when necessary – with our funds.
Volunteers are ready to help in response to a phone call to the Care Group from a villager who needs a helping hand.
Redbourn Care Group draws generous financial help from the Parish Council, local bodies and many individual contributions and bequests.
There are no paid officers or helpers apart from the part-time Office Manager.
A measure of the Care Group's success was marked by its being awarded the Queen's Golden Jubilee Award in 2003. This award is of nationwide significance, celebrating the importance of voluntary workers contributions to the well-being of their communities.
Peter Fox, "Podge" to all his many friends is a local hero. Born and raised in the village, he is one of a dying breed of genuine locals who have a passionate love for Redbourn. They know the village and its old families in intimate detail and are an endless source of stories about village life.
Another is Dennis Bigham, a Parish Councillor and being an ex-professional soldier, a man of action, a stalwart of the Care Group and the Village Hall. But enough about Dennis, he is larger than life without any help from this correspondent.
Podge and friends began giving lifts to people in the village who for one reason or another couldn't get about themselves. This spread to include a wider number of drivers and "clients", and in 1980 they decided to establish Redbourn Care Group as a social self-help organisation which later became a Registered Charity in 1987. All these years later, the Care Group has grown ever bigger and is thriving.
Now Life President of the Charity, Podge is still engaged in the Care Group, and his wisdom and warmth are woven into the very fabric of the organisation. The twinkle in the eye and the mischievous smile suggests that big-hearted Podge is a lot more than a do-gooder, but the secrets of his youthful past are tightly guarded by his old mates.
We owe the Care Group to Podge and his friends. He has well deserved the award of the MBE in 1999 that honoured his achievements for the benefit of Redbourn.

Six weeks into the NFL season there remains one undefeated and one winless team. Minnesota has a perfect record (5-0) and Cleveland is defeated. What's more likely: 16-0 or 0-16?
The Vikings are the surprise team of 2016. The Purple and Gold have started fast despite injuries to Teddy Bridgewater and Adrian Peterson. The team has found success by relying on its defense. The unit is second in DVOA, tops in the league in points allowed (12.6), third in sacks (19) and second in takeaways (7 interceptions, five fumbles).
The offense hasn't been bad either. A resurgent Sam Bradford leads the NFL in completion percentage (70.4%) and the offense takes care of the ball (only one turnover).
Can the Vikings run the table?
After 10,000 simulations of the 2016 season, Minnesota has a 3.4% chance of joining the New England Patriots as the only teams to go unbeaten since the NFL expanded to a 16-game regular season in 1978.
Even though Mike Zimmer's squad is our most likely playoff participant and Super Bowl Champion, it is improbable that the Vikings go undefeated. The schedule moving forward is not easy: seven of Minnesota's final 11 opponents are .500 or better. For as well as Bradford has played he will eventually throw an interception and the injuries the team has been able to overcome could catch up to them.
The last time the Browns started 0-6 was 1999. So even for Cleveland this is a rough start. The Browns have lost nine straight dating back to last season and have started five different quarterbacks in that span.
Will Hue Jackson's team join the 2008 Detroit Lions as the only squads to go 0-16? According to the simulations, there is a 4.3% chance that Cleveland goes winless.
Just as it is difficult to win every game, losing them all proves equally challenging. Rookie quarterback Cody Kessler has been competent under center. The offense ranks 26th in points/game (18.8) and 19th in yards/game (348.0). Better than you thought probably. Cleveland has been competitive this season and the numbers suggest they will get off the schneid before season's end.
Still, when debating what is more likely to happen, 16-0 or 0-16, the Browns futility trumps the Vikings excellence.
There are Pro System picks in upcoming games for the Vikings and Browns.

BioMart recently got a facelift. I'm not sure if this was always available in the old BioMart, but there's now a link to a gene ID converter that worked pretty well for me for converting S. cerevisiae gene IDs to standard gene names. It looks like the tool will convert nearly any ID you could imagine. Looks like it will also map Affy probe IDs to gene, transcript, or protein IDs and names.

One of the biggest technology buyouts ever plans to sell shares to repay debt.
Freescale Semiconductor, the chip maker acquired in 2006 in one of the biggest technology leveraged buyouts ever, filed to go public on Friday, seeking to raise money to pay down its debt load.
Freescale said that it intends to use proceeds from the stock sale to repay debt. It isn't clear whether its private equity owners, including the Blackstone Group, TPG Capital, the Carlyle Group and Permira Advisers, will sell shares in the offering.
The filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission did not disclose a fundraising target, giving only a $1.15 billion provisional goal as a way to calculate registration fees.
Freescale has become the latest company owned by buyout firms to pursue an initial offering, as the private equity industry seeks to take advantage of improving market conditions to sell their holdings or help refinance their companies.
Other companies owned by private equity, including Nielsen Holdings and Kinder Morgan, have already and successfully gone public. More, including HCA and Toys 'R Us, are expected to follow.
Once derided as "one of the ugliest buyouts in history," Freescale has labored under a significant debt burden gained as part of its $17.6 billion takeover. But the company, which makes chips for a variety of products, including cars and cellphones, has seen its business slowly improve over the past few years.
In its regulatory filing, Freescale said that last year showed marked improvements over 2009, with net sales rising 27 percent to $4.46 billion. Its adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, a nonstandard figure that excludes several charges, roughly doubled to $1.15 billion. (On a generally accepted accounting principles basis, Freescale lost about $1 billion.)
Much of those business gains has come from improvements in car sales, which spurred greater demand for its chips.
Citigroup and Deutsche Bank are leading the offering, with Barclays Capital, Credit Suisse and JPMorgan Chase also working as underwriters.

I'm a big fan of XBMC. One of its most important features is gathering metadata from various websites (a process called scraping), depending on the type of content (e.g. IMDB for movies, TheTVDB for TV shows etc.). I've been using smuto's Filmweb scraper for scraping movie information for a while now without any major problems. Yet recently Filmweb changed their layout (again…), rendering the scraper useless. I got tired of waiting for an updated version of smuto's scraper and started developing my own from scratch. It turned out it wasn't as easy as I would like it to be.

WMM and delays on TP-LINK routers
I was quite puzzled recently when, after unpacking a TP-LINK TL-WR740N router, plugging it in and configuring a wireless network on it, ICMP ping delays between the router and a laptop connected to it via Wi-Fi were reaching 100 milliseconds, despite a mere distance of a couple of meters between the two devices (without any obstacles). Changing channels and supported speeds didn't help. It turned out that the reason was WMM (Wi-Fi MultiMedia) which is enabled by default.
Sony Ericsson Elm, YouTube and TP-LINK routers
If you have a Sony Ericsson Elm J10i2 phone (the issue probably applies to other models as well) and you're trying to watch YouTube videos via your home WiFi while accessing the Internet through a TP-LINK router, it probably won't work. The TP-LINK TL-WR541G V4 (probably other models as well) performs NAT in a way that makes it impossible for the RTSP protocol, which is used for streaming YouTube videos on some Sony Ericsson phones (the Android app uses HTTP), to work.
Non-root media mounting using udisks-glue
Due to HAL deprecation, I'm using udisks-glue for media automounting on my Gentoo box. Its documentation is pretty good and it includes sample configurations for the most common cases, but it doesn't say a word about giving non-root users the possibility to mount media.
Non-Latin characters in archive files
I was recently moving files whose names contained non-Latin characters between Linux and Windows. Using Samba (version 3.4), everything worked fine. Yet creating a ZIP or TAR archive on Linux and extracting it on Windows resulted in mangled filenames. As it turns out, this is an expected behavior: neither ZIP nor TAR format allows including character encoding information in the archive. As a result, creating an archive in a system which uses e.g. UTF-8 (most modern Linux systems) and extracting it in Windows causes weird characters to appear in filenames due to the lack of conversion between UTF-8 and Windows' codepage during extraction. The same goes for creating an archive in Windows and extracting it in Linux. The solution is to use a format which saves character encoding information in the archive (e.g. 7z) or to use Samba (which is able to automatically convert filenames between different encodings) for moving the data.
Trunks on old Cisco switches
When dealing with older Cisco switches it is worth remembering that ISL was once the default trunking protocol on these devices. You can check the trunking protocol used on a given interface using the
show interface [interface_name] switchport command. To force a specific protocol, use the
switchport trunk encapsulation [dot1q|isl] interface configuration mode command. I've come across this problem while trying to setup a trunk between Cisco WS-C3524-XL and HP 1700-24 switches (the latter uses 802.1q by default).
qTranslate and localized permalinks
I have finally managed to migrate to "pretty" URLs. It was a real ordeal, basically only because of the fact that I'm using qTranslate for publishing in two languages. It was all about translating so called slugs – thingies that appear in a URL in place of the
%postname% tag in permalink format.

Posted on 02/18/2014 2:03:47 PM PST by 12th_Monkey
Having a Democratic president in the United States is linked with a reduction in infant mortality rates, according to a controversial new study.
Researchers analyzed U.S. infant mortality rates from 1965 to 2010, a period that spans nine presidencies (four Democratic and five Republican).
They found that infant mortality declined significantly during that time, dropping 75 percent over the nearly 50-year period.
But when the researchers used statistical methods to focus on short-term changes during this time period, they found that infant mortality rates were about 3 percent higher during years in which a Republican was president, compared with the years in which a Democrat was president.
The findings held even after the researchers took into account factors that might affect infant mortality, such as unemployment rates, smoking rates, abortion rates and measures of national education and income level. And the researchers did not consider the first year of any president's term, they said, because a president's policies would not be expected to affect mortality in the first year of his presidency.
The researchers acknowledged that their findings could be accidental: infant mortality and the president's party may be completely unrelated, and instead, what seems to be a link between the president's political party and infant mortality could actually be due to other factors that shift back and forth over four to eight years.
However, the researchers said they were "struck by the consistency of the association we have uncovered," according to the study published online in the International Journal of Epidemiology on Dec. 30, 2013.

Wag your head and enjoy this liberal inspired pile of dung.
And, if they do happen to make it (what is it, 25% chance in some leftist cities?), nothing like being immediately $300,000 in debt.
They probably first tried to tie it to "global warming", but then that didn't work, so tried some other concepts until they found one that would show some correlation.
That could be because a preemie that you don't try to save is not counted as an infant death.
If you try to save them and they die, then it is counted as "infant mortality."
Just another way bureaucrats play with numbers.
good point.
Numbers can be manipulated easily and the run of the mill consumer who reads that article will buy into it without a second thought.
thats about the size of it.
sun spots too
When a Berkley professor critcizes a study like that you know it is in trouble.
study brought to you by the DNC, george soros and public broadcasting.....
oops, must have missed that. I expected the study to have fallen out the butt of some Berkley moon bat.
Gee - I wonder if the highly negative partisan press creating an atmosphere of doom and gloom may cause extra complications...
Or if having a less baby-killing man in the white house would lead to more at-risk pregnancies being brought to term...
Crap science is crap.
It all depends on what the meaning of the word "babies" is, doesn't it?
Another bunch of crap and lies.
Yep, garbage in garbage out.
Truman and JFK were the only ones since who were even arguably close. And they were both merely mediocre.

Lease Options -The BBC Want to Know Your Experiences
I was contacted yesterday by the BBC and they wanted to know more about lease options.
Anyway, following my conversation with them, I was sent the following eMail:-
"Some people who are in negative equity or are having real problems paying their mortgage are being approached by investors offering to by their property.
The investor will promise the seller a fixed fee in, say, 5 years time. In the meantime the investor takes over the mortgage. The seller can move into somewhere cheaper with the knowledge they will receive a lump sums when the investor sells the property.
The investor benefits because they are able to rent the property out at a price that more than covers the mortgage payment. They also hope that the value of the properly will rise above the amount they have agreed to pay the seller on the agreed date.
The BBC would like to speak to anyone who has entered a deal like this. Your conversation would be off the record and for research purposes only.
Please contact –
Kirsteen Knight on 0208 752 7774 or at email@example.com "
This is also on the Property Tribes Forum:
"I am a producer at the BBC. We are considering making a programme about Lease Options.
Some adverts portray Lease Options as being able to provide wealth without debt but I also see there has been some concern about them expressed on Property Tribes.
I would really like to speak to people who could take me through the pros and cons of Lease Options.
If you can help please do give me a call on 020 8752 7444".

A truly unique label or packaging design goes a long way toward having potential consumers purchase your product over a competitors. These beer and champagne label designs for hot air balloon company Reve, by Laura Berglund certainly do the job.
Laura examples the concept:
I discovered during my research of hot air balloons that the first balloon to take flight landed in an angry farmer's field, who came running out of his house with a pitchfork ready to attack the intruders. The flyers appeased him with the champagne they brought along, and ever since, it has become a tradition to drink champagne after every balloon excursion.
Thus, I created a line of food packaging, including champagne of course, which was designed upside down to reference the shape of the hot air balloon.
What do you think?
While the whole line of packaging is obviously good, the champagne and beer labels are particularly great.

A couple of days ago, I attended a briefing at Microsoft in Reading (, England for the non-British amongst you) that included a presentation on .NET support of REST by Mike Taulty. Mike is very good incidentally, even if he does deliver hundreds of little nuggets of useful knowledge at supersonic speeds, leaving your brain slightly jellified after an hour's presentation. At this briefing, he commented upon not knowing the difference between URL and URI and apologised if he used the terms wrongly. This set me thinking: should I actually care what the terms mean and try and use them correctly myself?
So today I got off my backside (metaphorically speaking) and read up on the matter. My conclusions are that I wish I hadn't bothered. The subject is a minefield of utter techno-babble.
Having consulted a series of documents:
- Uniform Resource Identifiers (URI): Generic Syntax
- URN Syntax
- Uniform Resource Identifier (URI): Generic Syntax
- URIs, URLs, and URNs: Clarifications and Recommendations 1.0
- Uniform Resource Identifier (Wikipedia)
I have constructed the following (hopefully correct) summary:
- The original intention of identifying resources (URIs) on the internet was that they have a name (the URN) and an address (the URL). An analogy is a library, whereby books have both a "name" (the ISBN number) and a "location" (normally, at least here in Britain, expressed using the Dewey decimal system). Thus one can trace the book to a shelf with its Dewey decimal "URL" and there find its ISDN "URN". Alternatively, if the book moves (is borrowed), one can trace its new location by looking up its URN in the library's lending records. Thus URLs (and URNs) are subsets of URIs.
- This scheme was largely ignored by the great unwashed masses. URNs fell by the wayside and URL and URI largely became synonymous in the minds of many who knew of the terms. Most actually just use the term "web address" and URL at a push.
- The W3C responded to all this by trying to clarify things. They did this by "depreciating" URLs and insisting everyone call them URIs. I can only assume this is because the W3C's membership consists of brainy boffins without even an ounce of good sense between them.
So in conclusion, I ought to use the term URI, and never use the term URL again. But I don't think I'll bother. I like the term URL and so I'm sticking with it and those that prefer URI are welcome to stick with that.

Ads for penis enlargement pills can be seen everywhere which pursue a person to increase the natural length of a penis by mentioning the related benefits from it.
Unfortunately, it's a myth that men with the long penis are attractive for women and their remaining life spend with sexy women.
Young boys tempt for different ways of penis enlargement and most of them go for the pills considering them easy to use.
However, one should consider the possible health risks related to the pills as temporary benefits can lead a person towards the permanent detriment.
What are Penis Enlargement Pills?
Penis enlargement pills are usually made of natural herbs which increase the blood flow, but with the passage of time, chemical formulation of compounds became an ingredient of the pills which remarkably increased the health risks. Capsule, tablet, and caplet forms are available in the market.
How Penis Enlargement Pills Work?
There are several techniques used for penis enlargement that are widely being used all over the world. Here are the four major types that I have found after reading many reviews.
- Penile Surgery
- Penis Enlargement Pills
- Penis Pump
- Penis Weight
- Penis Enlargement Exercises
All the above-mentioned ways let the body enter more blood in the penis during the arousal which automatically increases intercourse time and provide extra energy as well. After the use of penis enlargement pills, the user doesn't observe any significant change in the length of the penis, but he finds harder erection and better control over ejaculation.
Major Health Risks from Penis Enlargement Pills
People feel happy after the immediate use which results in a stronger erection. However, the health risks are threatening to both physical and sexual lives.
Damaged Body: Low quality and cheap pills destroy body cells and affect the immune system which is directly related to your physical health.
Abnormal Penis Size: In the initial days, the pills show positive results and the person feels satisfied. The continuous use leads towards fatal results and decreases the penis size, effects the muscles, and lowers the erection time.
Insomnia: The permanent user finds difficulty in sleeping and becomes a victim of habitual sleeplessness and restlessness . The person always feels unhappy and depressed.
Increased Heartbeat: Most of the pills include ingredients which increase blood flow and body pressure results in increased heartbeat. The long term excitement and high blood pressure disturbs the normal functionality of veins and put pressure on the inner walls.
Hearing and Vision Problem: It's reported that after the use of the pills' users observed serious and abrupt change in their hearing and vision senses. It happens because of the increased blood pressure, which effect the nervous system.
Sexual relations are a necessary part of life, but it's not a wise way to go for fantasies and neglect your overall health. Check the ingredient list and reviews of the users before buying these kinds of pills as they directly impact on your mood and physical health. There are some good products which have received a positive feedback from users.

Every once in a great while we come across a story that is extremely heartwarming. Such was the case this past weekend. I happened to stumble across a Facebook video with the caption "Daughter and Father reunited after 14 years."
In this case, I actually didn't know the original poster, the only reason that I saw the post was because a mutual friend of ours commented on it. However, the caption caught my attention, and I decided to take a look at the video. Here is the video that I saw, which prompted me to reach out to 18-year-old Miranda.
First things first, how awesome is it that the background music playing is the ice cream truck jingle? I was going to edit the video and play Sarah McLaughlin's, "In the arms of an angel." That song is always perfect for emotional scenes like this one. However, I could not get myself to edit out the ice cream truck jingle, that is just too freaking classic.
What you are witnessing is a father and daughter seeing each other, literally for the first time since she was four years old. As I mentioned early on, Miranda is now 18 years of age. Her parents had some differences, and due to these differences, they ended up going their separate ways. Miranda and her mom moved quite often. As her mom was not happy with her husband's decision to leave, she cut communications with him. You have to remember that Miranda was a child, and this was well before cell phones, and Facebook were common household items. So, father and daughter lost touch.
My son is 14 years old. It's amazing that these folks have lost contact for the entire duration of my son's life! So how did they reconnect after all this time you may ask? It wasn't easy. Miranda explained to me that for many years she has searched and searched for her father with no luck.
It would appear that luck was in fact on Miranda's side. Her dad has since then remarried. Those of you familiar with Facebook know that it has been responsible for uniting a lot of people, from classmates, to war veterans, and even father and daughter. Miranda's father has a somewhat tech-savvy wife, and she sent her a Facebook message way back in May of 2013. You know that "other" folder that Facebook has in your messages. Well, you should check there from time to time. Turns out the message went there, unseen for over a year, then by sheer curiosity I suppose; Miranda checked the "other" tab and saw the message on October of 2014.
Once seeing the message, Miranda assumed that this was an old friend of her mother, and they engaged in some back and forth chat. As the woman made continuous references, to how "he," said she was so beautiful, Miranda felt confused and uncertain. That is until she sent her a picture of the man, the man that she knew as her father. They exchanged numbers, and arranged for the meeting that you saw above.
I asked Miranda how that first meeting was, she said her father was emotional, and at a loss for words, while she cried the tears of joy. They went to a restaurant for a nice dinner. She brought her photo album and updated her dad on her life. She showed him her high school diploma and inquired about his last 14 years. They dined at Tu Casa restaurant here in Kew Gardens, get that, me and Miranda are neighbors! It's a small world I tell ya!
While spending time together for the first time in so many years, their similarities would astound them. They stood up alike, similar in their posture. They shared the same health issues, and both were born with 12 fingers! It's amazing how much of our DNA we pass on to our children, and even though time can keep us apart, nature, DNA, cannot be denied. Both of them work in the design field too, Miranda simply said "It was fate."
They continued their first "date" with the film "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" and then went on to eat again after the film. Apparently, papa has a major appetite, as most of us fathers are known to have! I know I can eat quite a bit!
On behalf of NYCTalking, I congratulate Miranda on her reunion with her dad. It goes to show us the cycle of life, as I am telling stories of my dad passing away some weeks ago, another person is telling stories of her dad coming to life. That's the circle of life.
God bless these two, and may they continue to have a long and happy life together.

The large city of Espoo stands on the coast in southern Finland, just 12 miles west of the capital. This means it forms part of the Helsinki metropolitan area. So visitors who hire a car here can easily reach all the capital's attractions, like the Sibelius Monument, Suomenlinna Island and the underground church. Seurasaari Open Air Museum and the Tamminiemi Museum are both on the Espoo side of Helsinki. Other highlights of the area include the Nuuksio National Park, home of the Siberian Flying Squirrel, and the Rantaraitti waterfront walkway. Beaches, watersports and archipelago adventures are close at hand too.
Finland's second-biggest city may be almost joined to the capital but it has retained its own identity and attractions. If you hire a car in Espoo you'll be able to tour round them easily. The highlights include the EMMA (Espoo Museum of Modern Art), housed in an old printing works, and Glims Farmstead Museum, in a collection of 200-year-old wooden rural buildings. There are several stately homes around the city; the best is Pakankylän Kartano on the shore of Lake Bodom. Look out for Espoo's old stone cathedral too and, for children of all ages, 'Santa's Cottage', an attraction in the woods on the outskirts of the city.

I'm part of the Netflix Stream Team, all opinions are my own and honest.
After you had your children did you find yourself changing? It starts with the minute they're born and you start realizing that you really are a parent, this little life is your responsibility. Then you start to teach them the basics: crawling, eating food, talking. You think you have it all under control and then come the ABCs, numbers, spelling, and you realize you're going to constantly evolve your role in parenting as they grow older.
Like the character Kimmy in the new Netflix series Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, she thought she had everything figured out but all of a sudden her life is flipped upside down. Thinking the world had ended she was rescued from an underground bunker and now she has to deal with the real world and find herself.
I had my finding my parenting style moment when we found out that Korey has developmental delays. There was a long grieving process that I went through when I found out that I wasn't going to have a "normal" parenting experience. Instead of thinking I was going to be having the laid back parent approach in just making sure that he was able to go through life having nothing but fun and that I was going to be able to home school him.
I could have let it break me, but instead I chose to buckle up my boot straps and learn as much as I could on how to help him. Thankfully we were matched with a wonderful speech therapist and educational teacher. Throughout Korey's first year in Early Intervention I learned how to teach my son, I understood how he learned best, what he struggles the most at how and how to work on that daily.
It's been 2 1/2 years since he started therapies, and now he's in preschool. While we still have to do therapies daily, and are constantly learning about what he needs to work on, I've embraced my new role. I understand that I'm a teacher, a mother, a source for encouragement and his biggest fan. While I may not have expected to take on so many roles I love the me that I have become, it's changed my self-esteem and my outlook on life. I embrace every day unbreakable.
Tell me about your unbreakable moment:
You can watch Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt now on Netflix.

Cavett once said "If you don't think every day is a good day, just try missing one."
Cavett Robert (1907 - 1997) is considered by many to be the founder of the modern professional speaking industry. He was a good Mississippi boy and Ole' Miss graduate and began his career as a teacher in his home state. Returning to school he studied law at Washington and Lee and became a lawyer in New York City and Arizona and then a highly successful and groundbreaking salesperson. His success in selling and creating new methods (such as "preneed" selling) led him into the field of training and "professional speaking."
After joining Toastmasters International he became the World Champion Of Public Speaking after his 2nd attempt. Through his tireless efforts and his "If its to be it's up to me" mentaility he eventually established the National Speakers Association in 1972 after many years of trying.
One of Cavett's tenants was to help "build a bigger pie" for other professional speakers and to help others learn and grow in the speaking industry.
Cavett, may your generous spirit, your gracious attitude and your legacy live on forever!
Al Argo,
International Speaker, Marketing Strategist & Achievement Coach
Great Cavett Quotes
"If its to be it's up to me."
"True success is a journey, not a destination."
"True Progress in any field is a relay race and not a single event."
"When it's foggy in the pulpit it's cloudy in the pew."
"Character is the ability to carry out a good resolution long after the mood in which it was made has left you."

The main site was upgraded to the latest version of phpwebsite (0.9.3-4) plus the core security patch. Update went smoothly and took about an hour overall. There doesn't seem to be any significant changes or functionality. The announcements admin menu bug is still there and also discovered a bug in Calendar (having 2 all day events on the same day, will have to research). Overall everything seems to be fine.

Yoot Tower (known in Japan as The Tower II) is a 1998 construction and management simulation computer game. It may be considered the spiritual successor to the 1994 game SimTower.
The lead designer, Yoot Saito, who also worked on SimTower, produced this game as a sequel to SimTower, adding several new features while retaining the same general interface and style. The game's premise is largely unchanged from its predecessor; players must build a profitable and unique tower block complete with various amenities and living accommodations, while balancing the needs of the occupants.
Using the provided starting funds, players must begin to build a tower from scratch. As in SimTower, offices and food courts can be built to generate income, as well as condos that can be sold to families. There are plenty of new facilities that can be placed such as rented apartments, vending machines and public restrooms for food court patrons. There are also many changes to existing items that featured in the original game, i.e. a notable difference between the shop item in Yoot Tower and the one originally in SimTower is that it no longer functions as a rented space where the player has no control over what the shop sells; rather the player is provided with different types of shop from the start from which the income they make is part of the player's earnings. Another interesting addition is the ability for players to build two or more towers next to each other and join them with sky bridges. Other income sources also exist, such as placing billboards outside and renting them out as advertisement space.
Also new to this game is the ability to choose where the building is built. What the player can do in these locations varies, such as how many stories high the building can be, what the player is actually allowed to build, and how much money the player starts off with. The variation gives each location its own difficulty level compared to the others.
A new addition of the game is the ability to expand the game using plug-ins released for download which would add new features, such as new facilities (e.g. additional shops, restaurants, and services, ranging from a Glico store to a swimming pool), new events, billboards, and movies, as well as other aspects of gameplay. Inspection of the game's official website through web archives indicates that although the American version never got any true additions, the Japanese version got several updates, including new movies and locations. However, none of these appear to have survived when the official websites relating to the game and its developer OPeNBooK9003 went offline between the years 2001 and 2002. Through translations on the Japanese downloads page, an Austin Powers movie can be downloaded.
The original Tower II game came with Tokyo and Hawaii. The American version had Tokyo, Hawaii, and Kegon Falls. However, unlike in Japan, America did not get updates. In Japan, each expansion pack was sold under the Towerkit title.
The easiest of the three scenarios, Hawaii has users building a mixed-use structure featuring condominia and hotels. After building up those plus an underground shopping mall, users can place a cathedral on the top floor (the 45th).
The advanced Tokyo level has users building a fast-paced tower with primarily offices and eventually other uses as well. Users place a stadium on the top level.
In this scenario, the player is required to construct mostly underground, building a vast underground tourist attraction through hotels, shops, and a museum. This was initially sold in Japan as an expansion, but is included in Yoot Tower and later The Tower II releases.
This expansion, was released in Japan in February 1999 under the name Towerkit CD-ROM: The Statue of Liberty. It was also originally meant to be available to download from the American official website, but the English version never materialized. The expansion is rare in Japan.
In this game, player build below Tokyo Tower. Yoot Saito also indicated the Tower team was working on another location, "Tokyo Tower"[1], but the addition was only released in Japan as Towerkit. This is not to be confused with the "Tokyo" location.
The Kyoto Station was launched as a product based on the Gamera 3: Awakening of Irys movie. This version was sold as Towerkit, or bundled with the base The Tower II game.
In this add-on, player built around Tsutenkaku.
This version was sold as Towerkit, or bundled with the base The Tower II game.
In this add-on, player builds a log building to collect Christmas-themed items. This version was sold as Towerkit and the rarest and most obscure of the released items. This expansion is so obscure that it cannot be confirmed to have actually been released - it may only be a rumor.
Yoot Tower includes a non-invasive form of static in-game advertising. Users can place billboards for Apple Computer and Sega, while there are tenants featuring real-world stores like GameWorks, Orange Julius or Air Jamaica. Some updates include more real-world tenants and billboards. The Japanese version of Yoot Tower even has a Glico store.
The game was dismissed by some game review websites and magazines as being too much a rehash of the original SimTower. Many wrote the game off as being basically identical to its predecessor. Due to the average reviews and spotty distribution, the game was largely ignored by the mainstream gaming public after release, possibly contributing to its poor sales. This in turn is the most likely reason why none of the new locations or expansion plug-ins were ever localized for the English version.. It sold well in Japan, however, and received several new plug-ins. Another criticism was that some in-game text was not localized effectively. This resulted in some minor text errors and unfamiliar items to American audiences (such as placing cigarette machines commonly).

Big Brothers Spies On Your...Recycling?
Image via: vermont_news on Flickr.com
That's right, in communities across the US, recycling bins are now being outfitted with Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) chips. And if you don't recycle, they'll let you know that they know.Savannah, GA, Howard County, MD, Cranberry Township, PA, and Pleasant Prairie, WI have all gone RFID when it comes to recycling. The technology is provided by Motorola and is the same system used in EZPass cards. The recycling trucks have a mechanism by which they can track which households are recycling and which are not. The municipality can then contact uncooperative households and educate them about the need to recycle. One upside is that these new tracking numbers ensure that all carts (or just about all carts) get picked up on recycling day. If one is missed, the tracking id lets the driver know that one was missed so that it can be picked up on a second round.
San Francisco currently has a fine for households that refuse to recycle. No word yet on how this system plans to target individuals or businesses that refuse to recycle or what to do when individuals that are educated on recycling but still decide, "nah, not for me." Maybe they will just sit them down in a room and make them each hug a tree until they feel like recycling.

How Your Salary Compares to Online Marketers Across the WorldBlog Post: February 11, 2014
I too agree. The data are inspiring yet make me sad.
I was hoping to see average salary in "whole" Asia but when I saw the figures I was like "oh, well...". However, it's nice that Cyrus pointed out that our industry is mostly composed of self-taught professionals the fact that I'm no college grad and yet I have more than 4 years of internet marketing experience.
Yes, passion is the key and that makes us Filipinos "versatile" professionals :)

Gmail has made it easy to sign into more than one account at one time. Now, you can use the same browser to login to multiple accounts at once and seamlessly switch between accounts at will. The best part is that the process is easy and straightforward.
Adding a Google Account
First, you will want to sign into your email. This can be done by doing the following steps:
- Go to Gmail.
- Login using your email address.
Once you are logged into an account, you can now add more accounts that can be logged into all at one time.
Sign Into Another Account
If you have followed the steps above, you should be signed into your main Gmail account. From here, you will want to do the following:
- Click your profile picture on the top-right of the page.
- Select Add Account from the drop down menu that pops up.
You will now be sent back to a login page where you can add in your login information and proceed with logging into your account. This takes just seconds and once you have logged in, you will able to access your alternate Gmail account.
Switching Between Accounts
You will now be able to easily switch between the accounts that you have signed into. This can be done by doing the following:
- Click your profile picture at the top-right of the screen.
- Choose the account you want to sign in to.
You will notice that there are two indicators that help you differentiate the accounts which you can choose from. These are as follows:
- Profile picture. You will see the account's profile picture listed. If you haven't added a picture, it is often best to add one to easily switch between accounts.
- Email Listing. To the right of the profile picture, you will see the account owner's name and the email address underneath it.
You will now be able to merely click on the account that you want to enter. Keep in mind that you can log into many accounts at one time – not just two. This means that you can log into your personal and business Gmail accounts, and switch between several with just a few clicks.
Understanding Default Accounts
You will be able to access many Google products, such as YouTube, using the multiple account login feature. There are, however, a few products that Google does not allow multiple accounts to access.
The products that will not work with multiple accounts are:
- Adwords
- Analytics
- Blogger
- Picasa
In this case, you will be logged into the site with your default account. This is the first account that you signed into on Gmail. Furthermore, when you access Gmail going to the main site, you will always be logged into your default, or first account that you signed into.
Signing out of just one account is not possible. Once you click sign out, you will be signed out of all accounts at one time and will need to sign into each of them again following the steps above.
