Ahhh, celebrity diets. The age-old 'I lost 50lbs by eating nothing but grapefruit covered in salt water and lizard's tears' diet is a staple of trashy magazines (full disclosure: I love trashy magazines). When you're tucking into your second helping of chicken nuggets, it's easy enough to think 'TOMORROW I will start the Master Cleanse because if Cheryl Cole can do it, so can I!' whilst flicking through Heat magazine. It doesn't take long, however, to realise that the whole 'quick fix' solution is a bit of a myth. But still, celeb diets continue to hold their appeal because they're a bit of a reminder that, for all their apparent perfection, celebrities are still just like us.
Case in point: Jessica Simpson. During her pregnancy, she gained a huge amount of weight – and to my mind, that's her business. I'm not going to say whether I would or wouldn't gain a lot of my weight back if I was pregnant, because it seems like one of those things that depends on whether your cravings include cucumbers and lettuce, or pizza and cake.
Almost immediately after having the baby, however, she signed a $4million deal with Weight Watchers to become their new ambassador – and is now the subject of endless articles about how she's struggling to lose the weight, is miserable, depressed, blah blah blah. It's a strange spin on the usual post-weight-loss unveiling, and one that I'm not 100% isn't going to backfire on Weight Watchers' behalf.
Don't get me wrong – I think as these things go, Weight Watchers isn't exactly evil. It's not perfect, but they've got a reasonable grasp on healthy(ish) eating and exercise, and I've seen it work for people in the past – so I don't have anything against them. But when your spokesperson is having what looks like the worst time ever hitting the gym, it's not exactly encouraging. She's recently tweeted to stress that Weight Watchers haven't put any pressure on her to lose the weight – but if she's as unhappy as she looks every time she leaves the gym… Well, it's enough to put me off going – and I bloody love working out.
And that's the difference here – if she's miserable, putting in ridiculous gym hours, and not eating in a way that satisfies her, then it's just not sustainable in the long-term. Meaning that, while hopefully it won't play out like this, she's a prime target for the aforementioned trashy magazines to drag her down if she gains the weight again.
What intrigues me about the celebrity diet industry is that when you think about those celebs who've lost a huge amount of weight – particularly among the girls – almost all of them credit some sort of diet plan for their success. That, or surgery. And it makes me wonder if it's a chicken and egg situation – if Weight Watchers approaches you when you've gained the pounds and offers you a significant amount of money to lose the weight before you've done it… Do you say yes? Or more cynically – if you lost weight for whatever reason, through whatever method, and then were approached by a business like Jenny Craig, for instance, to say that your weight loss was a result of their products – would you do it?
I'm not going to lie about this – I think if I'd been offered $4million to lose my weight before I started, I'd probably have done it, because I'm a poor student and if Belle du Jour can fund her PhD with sex, then I could definitely fund mine by going on a diet. But alas, I am not a celebrity – so the opportunity didn't present itself. Now I'm nearly there though? No way would I let on it was some miracle diet that got me here. For any money.
Because while I'd really appreciate the cash (and if anyone's interested in starting the Katie-Needs-New-Clothes-Fund, I'm open to that) I think there need to be more people out there waving the flag for eating well and exercising in a way that's sustainable. As Mr-Trainer-Nutritionist-Expert-Man has told me all along, if you're doing a diet that you can't imagine being able to keep up for the rest of your life, then it's probably not going to work. Be it shakes, meal plans, Master Cleanses, or whatever – there's no way you'd want to eat that every day. For the next seventy years.
Celebrity weight loss is all well and good – and don't get me wrong, I will continue to read about them in my lunch hour while I'm munching away on something far more tasty and nutritious than a spiced up lemonade shot. But in the real world, real food and real exercise is the only way you'll lose the weight, and keep it off. It's harder than the quick fix approach – but the payoff is that you won't have Heat magazine circling your cellulite on their front page.
Totally worth it.

What will be the impact of demonetisation on the consumerism in India?
I don't have a crystal ball but certainly the companies we spoke to do believe that in the short term consumers will be constricted by the unavailability of cash and that will trickle down through the consumer network and that will have some impact on their performance. Whether it is for months or for quarters is hard to say. A lot will depend on how the financial institutions and the government continue to respond through this constraint. But without any doubt, they will see impact on their results.
How do you expect India's consumer market to shape up? What are its challenges?
Let's start with India's opportunities. The promise of India as a market has been there for decades. It's a very large and young market in terms of consumers. Growth has surpassed most other markets of the world even in recent times. From that standpoint, it is a very important place for consumer product companies to have operations, to be part of the marketplace, to learn and develop products and grow as India grows.
Infrastructure is certainly a challenge. It's a vast country and getting your products and services to consumers is a trickle engine. So you have to have innovative ways to do that. The other challenge is reforms and policies, and those are taking shape in the last couple of years. My clients are really encouraged by the pro-business leadership in the current government. Though some of the actions taken are difficult and may create unexpected outcomes for the government in the short term, in the long term they are all very promising for continued growth and investments.
One such promising reform is GST. How is that going to boost consumerism in India?
The topic of GST is promising. It can deal with the complex set of policies and regulatory environment that have been in existence here for years. The policy is currently getting formulated. The details are still to be worked through. (It is a) promising change, but we have to see how it impacts specific consumer sectors. We don't really know yet.
What are the sentiments among global consumer companies about India?
They are very positive about the promise of India. They have also learnt that this progress happens slowly. But they are also very cautious when it comes to ramping up their investments and they are waiting to see how these policies are implemented. I think it will take another couple of years to really get that confidence for MNCs to see them ramp up their investments.
An episode like the Maggi here, how is it playing in the minds of the investors? Are they worried?
Product quality, safety and regulatory (standards) exist everywhere to protect consumers. I think in India it was highlighted phenomenally by the social media, which can take incidents like that and amplify it across consumers. So it is very important for companies in the consumer sector to really learn how to operate the digital, social media and that is a big challenge for them.
(For) Every company we meet, social media is on top of their agenda as they have realized it is an important area for growth, it is important for reaching consumers in a two-way dialogue and not just educate them on the products and services but also to extract what is working and what is not.

Game: Dexter / Serial Huntress
Type: Live Event
Location: 34° 2′ 19″ N, 118° 13′ 4″ W, near Hollenbeck Park / the abandoned Linda Vista Hospital in Los Angeles (Boyle Heights)
Date: Friday, August 27, 2010, in the afternoon
Status: Concluded
The players of the Dexter / Serial Huntress ARG were given a video that lead them to a new website that gave them some interesting recipes to try out.
Beef Chili To Die For
1. Brown the meat in a large skillet with vegetable oil. Add water then simmer covered for an hour until meat is tender.
2. Heat oil in medium saucepan. Add canned kidney beans, oregano, celery, onion and green pepper, then sauté for 2 minutes.
3. Add garlic-onion-flour mixture to cooked meat. Then add remaining ingredients to meat mixture. Simmer for a half hour.
4. Let soup sit and cool to about 34 °C
5. Stir for approximately 19 seconds then indulge in your meal.
Hearty Veal Roast
1. Mix together salt, pepper and cinnamon, then rub over roast.
2. Heat a teaspoon of oil in a large skillet. Add onions, garlic, parsley thyme and tarragon. Mix together then set aside.
3. Use a pan large enough to hold all ingredients. Cover then bake at 118 °C for a long time – over an hour.
4. Uncover pan and continue baking for 13 minutes.
5. Transfer meat to serving platter. Skim fat from cooking juices then pour over roast.
6. Cut roast to desired serving size then, using a fork and knife, cut a small piece off. Blow for 4 seconds then taste your hearty meal.
This is my Friday afternoon special. I hope you enjoy it. And remember, using different cooking equipment may yield different results, so be sure to check-in on your meal.
Using the numbers in the recipes (degrees, minutes, seconds), the players came up with a GPS coordinate: 34° 2′ 19″ N, 118° 13′ 4″ W. This is near Hollenbeck Park in Los Angeles. It's also right next to the abandoned Linda Vista Hospital, which is now used primarily as a filming location, which makes it an ideal setting for an event in a serial killer ARG.
The recipe says this is a "Friday afternoon special," but doesn't give any specific time or directions on what to do once you get there (besides checking in I guess). Seems odd for it to be so vague considering Friday is a workday, but it's possible that more information will be forthcoming in the next 24 hours.

Mobile and cloud-based solution to ensure organization wide best practices across
business units, locations, divisions and departments.
GreenPark Hotels operate under three brands – GreenPark, Avasa and Marigold located in
Hyderabad, Vizag and Chennai in India. They have been in the hospitality
space for more than 25 years.
With their core focus on quality service to guests, GreenPark wants to always ensure that their best practices are adhered to, across all locations, departments and subdivisions. Though their internal and external audits ensure this, there was a challenge in scheduling, reporting, tracking non-compliances, chronic issues and deadlines. Heavy and time-consuming paperwork was involved for attaching evidences along with audit reports. There was a need for automation of the whole process.
Option Matrix, along with GreenPark auditors, users and key stakeholders, has co-created a solution for audit automation. Through in-depth process assessment and gap analysis of the current audit process, Option Matrix has built a Corporate Audit application which is based on mobile and cloud technology. The application has helped GreenPark in streamlining the audit process using dynamic checklists, real-time reporting and analytics, timely notifications of schedules and deadlines, easy tracking and escalation of non-compliances through reminders & alerts.
We had challenges in tracking of offline schedules, reports and comparing them with subsequent data. Since the new application is cloud based we are now able to retrieve real-time data on finger tips.
The facility to attach evidences in an audit and timely reminders and escalations are very useful for us.
Audits at GreenPark is quite complex as it involves many departments across various locations. It was challenging to keep track of audit reports, non-compliance and audit schedules.
The new audit application developed has simplified the audit process. The application is helping in identifying the chronic issues of non-compliance.

Poll: What do you think of the new Daily Bonus in The Sims Social?
Surely, you remember the old Daily Bonus, in which players had to log in just after the 24 hours previous in order to receive the bonus. Now that the new Daily Bonus has been around for a few days, we were curious as to what you thought of the change. So, without further delay...The Daily Bonus will now reset at midnight GMT. This means that if a player logs in at roughly the same time everyday, they will now see the daily bonus popup. Previously, this may have not been the case, because you had to wait a full 24 hours from your previous login. Players will no longer have to remember when they logged in last. Logging in at a similar time each day will be fine. If a player is playing the game during the midnight GMT reset time, they may need to reload in order to receive the subsequent daily bonus.

The word on the street – and the beach and the city – is that Northwood is the "Historically Hip" place to live, shop, eat and hang out. With property values rising, and a herd of cutting edge shops, galleries, cafes and restaurants moving in, Northwood is the most buzzed-about neighborhood in the county. The Bohemian Vibe of Northwood Village has even been written up for good reasons in publications such as The New York Times, Architectural Digest and Southern Living.
In 2005, the Community Redevelopment Agency decided to up the quality of life in Northwood and encouraged revitalization with incentives for new businesses to open there and for the pioneering existing ones to make improvements. Over $4 million was spent to renovate sidewalks, street lighting and landscaping especially around 24th and 25th streets. More is happening all the time, there are monthly walking tours and several websites to help keep track of the trends.
What makes Northwood Village so great?
The Art:
Focus on the galleries of Northwood during the monthly ArtWalks on the 2nd Saturdays of each month at 6 p.m. with all neighborhood galleries open late with new shows up. The evening runs from 6 to 9 p.m., but if you're new to the area you can sign up for a guided tour that starts at either 6 p.m. or 7:30 p.m. The tours are limited to 20 people.
The tour is run by ArtX a collaboration of more than 10 galleries in Northwood. The tour guide will give a short history of the area then walk the group to the heart of the district, stopping at an eclectic mix of galleries. The art includes a heady mix of local, national, and international artists, some are emerging and others are established. It's a great opportunity to see the latest the area has to offer in art and a chance to add to a collection. There will be wine and appetizers to imbibe in along the way, sometimes artists will present demos and lectures on their work.
Galleries on the tour include Africa Now, Barrell Garrity Gallery, Bohemia AG, CCE,
Gallery 418, Northwood Glass and Gifts and The Harooki Gallery. There is a Village Mural Project to help fund and place wall sized paintings along various open wall spaces in the district. In addition to the ArtWalks, social minded folkies can sip some wonderful wines and stroll the galleries at the Art & Wine Event the last Fridays of each month happening.
One of the highlights of the tour is the recently opened ArtHouse429. The gallery's curator is Bruce Helander, a well-known and respected artist and art critic from New York and South Florida, who has curated numerous shows for galleries and museums.
"This new and modern gallery is a very positive sign for the continued creative energy and business growth that is exploding the Northwood historic neighborhood," he said. "I am proud to be a part of it!"
The Food:
A longtime area favorite lunchtime option is Relish, the prized corner location at Northwood Road finds a menu packed with imaginative burger option such as lobster burger, white meat turkey burger, black bean burger, boar burger, sausage burger and snapper burger with an extended list of toppings. There's even a burger called The Ark, a blend of elk, buffalo, boar, camel and venison.
The Sunset Bar & Grill at Broadway and 24th has a historic building and a quality menu filled with imaginative fish and chicken and steak options. Live music and nightly specials liven up the scene.
The Souvlaki Grill has classic Greek specialties including lamb, Greek salads, Gyros and kabobs.
Bistro Bistro Bakery fills the neighborhood needs for a quality bakery with croissants, breads, muffins and brioche. They also serve lunch and some luscious French desserts.
Other eateries to check out are Café Centro, This Is It Café, Garage VV and the Malakor Thai Café.
The Shops:
Garden House Décor has a funk and funky selection of new and vintage outdoor furniture that ElleDecor called "Lily Pulitzer meets the Rat Pack". Gardenhouse is vintage gone modern and brings colorful indoor fabrics outside to brighten up decks, garden patios and yards.
Nancy's Vieux Carre Café has actual vintage Lily Pulitzer in a little shop busting with everything form birdcages to paintings to knick knacks.
Northwood Market – a neighborhood staple since 1987, it's Northwoods' oldest grocery. They serve wine, snacks, juices and imaginative sandwiches.
I love this emerging neighborhood enclave. Stop by one day. You'll have your reasons too. You can also read here about upcoming changes around this lovely neighborhood.

The benefits of running a half marathon are immense. The race helps you stay motivated to run and thus burn a lot of calories, lose or maintain weight, strengthen your heart while reducing blood pressure, along with providing a host of health benefits. It also gives you an excellent opportunity to meet other runners, spend time with friends and family, support a cause, travel to new destinations, and earn a medal that you can show off proudly. Recently, Kanakia Group was honored to be associated with one such event – the Monsoon Marathon Challenge, a half marathon that brought fitness freaks, casual runners, and family and friends together from around the country.
The Challenge
Half marathons are gaining popularity around the world, with several being held at different places in Mumbai alone. The Kanakia Monsoon Marathon Challenge, held on 23rd July 2017 at the Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) in Mumbai, saw over 3,000 runners of different age groups brave the rains with grit, determination and courage. Participants ran in the 5, 10, or 21 km category of the half marathon, conquering physical and mental challenges. At 6 am, the stage was set, and the crowd was ready. Within 20 minutes, the roads were already filled with contenders. Beats of dhols and drums that were being played from the side-lines pumped up the runners during this half marathon. The highlight of the event was the participation of all types of runners – from those partaking for the first time to seasoned professionals, from older to younger generation. Some ran for their various causes, while others did it for fun.
The Winners
Although runners Parina Khilari, Anil Korvi, and Megh Bhuvad emerged as the leaders in 5, 10, and 21 km race respectively, the real winners of the marathon were all the participants who successfully aced each category. The crowd was incredibly supportive, and several contenders were seen bonding with one another by the end of each race. All-in-all, the Kanakia Monsoon Marathon Challenge helped usher in a new chapter in Mumbai's inter-community relations as all the participants ran as one.
What did you think of the Monsoon Marathon Challenge that was organized by Kanakia as a part of its #IRunWithKanakia initiative? Will it help make Mumbaikars fit and healthy? Share your opinions by posting your comments below.

As a result of the poll I posted on Instagram stories, the majority of you voted for V-Day Date Ideas rather than your classic gift guide, so here it is!
Valentine's Day is not loved by all but you have to admit that there's always a special feeling in the air on the day of, at least I think so. Today I'll be doing a bit of the work for you and sharing some of my favourite date ideas. These can count as BFF dates too!
- Home Cooked Meal – Not everyone enjoys going out to restaurants all the time so this idea is perfect if you really want to wow your partner. Personally I'd take a home cooked meal from my boyfriend over a restaurant dish any time!
- Champagne and a View Point – Take him or her out to one of the best views in the city and bring along two glasses, a bottle of champagne and maybe a sweet treat like chocolate covered strawberries! Try going for the sunrise or sunset!
- Movie Night – It's not an extraordinary date but it's a great option if you're on a budget. Don't leave out the popcorn though!
- Art Class – Got time during the day or maybe in the evening? Take a one-time art class with your partner and see if you can sneak in a couple glasses of wine! Not only can it be romantic, it's also fun!
- Indoor Picnic – Similar to a home cooked meal but different in the sense that you'll literally be setting up a picnic on your living room floor. I think it's a great idea if you're looking to do something different and have some fun with it.
- Breakfast in Bed – If your significant other has work on Valentine's Day you can express your love by surprising them with breakfast before they head out the door!
Got any other ideas? Share them below in the comments!


text: LifeRound2 4 Report post Posted November 22, 2016 (edited) I started gaming at the age of 10 with a new gaming PC, how exciting! Fast forward 15 years later and I feel like I'm waking up from a dream. I'm currently 80/90 days free from gaming, and i'm not planning on stopping there. I started gaming while looking up to my older cousins who no-lifed MMOs such as Ultima Online, Runescape, Everquest, and later on.. the dreaded World of Warcraft. I've done fairly well for myself, played sports like soccer, football, and swimming, participated in some clubs like speech and debate, and throughout highschool and uni made OK grades. However, I always felt as if all these activities were just in the way of my gaming time. My addiction was amplified with the release of WoW, and I played non-stop around 10-12 hours a day for years straight, often 14-16 hours over the Summer. My parents didn't mind at all.When I started at university I made the decision to quit gaming. For the first 4 semesters I made exceptional grades, tons of friends, and was incredibly happy. Everything was going well, then during the Summer I got a call from an old highschool friend.. the new expansion Cata was coming out for WoW and he dragged me into it. I remember saying, "Oh, i'm done with that, i've moved on... but i'll play casually". Casually indeed... After a month of playing or two I decided I would make a push for gladiator 3's. The next semester was an absolute tragedy.. My grades dropped, most of my friends moved on after I stopped returning their calls and texts, and I stopped attending most lectures. I just had 4 cups of coffee the day before exams and passed. Sadly, this habit stayed, and I started League of Legends. My ranking in soloQ became a sole source of pride.. After 5 years I graduated with grades that looked like the right side of a bell curve. After moving home with the parents post-graduation I had no job lined up and I blamed the job market, coincidence, and other things for my failings. My parents were sad and confused after I had done so well for the first 2 years (on track for law school). I felt so worthless and pathetic for failing to live up to their expectations, and my own. My parents had provided so much opportunity and I had squandered it. I decided to commit fully to quitting gaming and alcohol. I have to say the HARDEST PART was (and is) telling friends no to online gaming sessions.The first week was hell, but after selling my gaming peripherals and hardware I felt less tempted. I found a job and started filling free time with all kinds of shit like reading, meditation, tennis, jogging, weights, training my dog etc. After 80 days i'm starting to feel free from curse of gaming addiction once again, and more resolute not to slip again like I did in university. "what ifs" still tear me up however... "what if I didn't get that call to play WoW in uni or said no? Where would I be? What would I be doing now" etc... But i'm in a good place. Several videos from Cam have helped via youtube, and bloggers here as well. It's time to level up in real life Edited November 22, 2016 by LifeRound2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Germany: 15 y/o girl sexually assaulted by 4 Afghan men recalls experience. Doesn't leave home without pepper spray
On 25 May 2016, a 15-year-old girl was sexually assaulted by four immigrants in the German city of Stendal. Lisa (fictitious name) was out for an afternoon jog on the Nordwall, when she was coming up to three "foreign-looking" men. Feeling something was wrong, she changes direction.
According to a report by Allgemeiner Zeitung, suddenly a man jumps out of the bushes and takes hold of both her arms. Three more men surround her. They grab her face, pinch her bottom and fondle her breast. She screams, kicks and punches all around herself. A witness comes to her rescue. The 15-year-old is able to flee. Distraught and in tears, she telephones her mother:
"Mama, mama, I've been assaulted. Come as quickly as possible."
A year has passed since the attack. Lisa has put the 'incident' behind her. At least, that's what it looks like to the outside world. In an interview published on 29 September, her mother talks about the impact the assault has had on her daughter:
"My daughter has been scared since the assault. She is scared to go out at night. When she leaves the house, she always carries pepperspray. She often fears coming face to with one of the perpetrators."
Lisa doesn't like to talk about the assault. "There is nothing to talk about", she answered when she was offered therapy. But Lisa doesn't hide away, her mother says. She goes out jogging. Even has normal relationships with men, appropriate for her age. "She only responds badly to foreign men." Her mother has been changed by her daughter's ordeal as well.
"All of this has made me so mad. When I was in the car to fetch my daughter, an incredible hate of foreigners washed over me. Yes, I know, it could have been a German committing this crime, but in our case it was four Afghan men. I'm not hostile to foreigners, but when a thing like this happens, thoughts and feelings you wouldn't have experienced otherwise come over you. You are forced in a corner you don't want to be in. On their own, these men wouldn't have done something like this, only in a group. Then they're courageous."
Two of the four men – Esan N. and Schekib H., both 20 years old – have been convicted to a prison sentence of one year under juvenile law – of which they have served three months, as confirmed by the spokesman of the State's Court. After their time in jail, both men are to be deported to their country of origin. Charges were made against the other two perpetrators, with investigations still underway.

Seth Kincaid survived a fire in a cave, but he's never been the same. He was always a reckless youth, but now he's gone over the edge. He ran off to the Civil War and came back crazier than ever.
After the war, nearly dead from his injuries, it appears Seth got married. Oh, he's got a lot of excuses, but his wife isn't happy to find out Seth doesn't remember her. Callie has searched, prayed, and worried. Now she's come to the Kincaid family's ranch in Colorado to find her lost husband.
Callie isn't a long-suffering woman. Once she knows her husband is alive, she wants to kill him. She's not even close to forgiving him for abandoning her.
Then more trouble shows up in the form of a secret Seth's pa kept for years. The Kincaid brothers might lose their ranch if they can't sort things out. It's enough to drive a man insane--but somehow it's all making Seth see things more clearly. And now that he knows what he wants, no one better stand in his way.

My Thoughts
When Seth Kincaid was a child his favorite place to play was in the caverns. He almost lost his life and thought he lost his soul due to a fire in the cave. He has been haunted by this near death experience ever since then. Now as an adult he has many scars especially after the Civil War.
The most noticeable is his mental scars that cause night terrors not just about the war but from that terrible day in his childhood when he caught fire in the cavern.
Callie Kincaid is in route to the Kincaid Ranch to seek what is due her sixteen month old son, Connonr's birthright. As son of Seth Kincaid, a father he has yet too meet, his Uncles can provide Connor a safe home and just maybe tell his mother where her absentee, no good skunk of a husband has got off to so she can fill him with holes. It has not been an easy haul going from Texas to Colorado with a baby in tow.
When Callie finally gets connected with her husband she let's him know real quick at the end of her rifle that she wants him to pay for abandoning her and their son when they needed him the most.
Seth is determined to prove to Callie he can be trusted to be there for her and his precious son. He had a very good excuse for not being there in the past. The problem is he can't really remember her but he recognized the feeling of love and concern he has for this woman that is his wife.
The older two brother's definitely had there issues mentally concerning the accident in the cave. Each of the boys felt like the accident was their fault and not that of the other brothers. Then to be abandoned by the death of the frequent absences of their father and the death of their mother left them with no one to lean on other than their brothers. They definitely needed to unburden unto God their guilt and grief over that day for He is their true Father.
I hope there will be another book to this series maybe about Heath. He seems to be the most level headed of all the brothers. But he will have to get a little older before any woman decides to rope him into marriage.
I have decided Mary Conneally is currently my favorite author. She managed to put her all into what it takes to write a humorous, romantic and adventurous fun novel that kept me up laughing and crying until I finished reading the whole book. I have all daughters and love them to pieces but I fail in love with this motherless son, Seth Kincaid. My heart broke for him and all of his scars physically and mentally.
I highly recommend this book.
I rated this book a 5 out of 5.
I received a free copy of this book from Litfuse/Bethany House for review. I was in no way compensated for this review. It is my own opinion.

text: HONG KONG (MarketWatch) -- Hutchison Port Holdings Trust has brought forward the deadline for subscriptions to the institutional portion of its initial public offering to Thursday from Friday, while also narrowing the pricing band for the offer, according to newswire reports on Thursday. The port unit of Hong Kong-listed Hutchison Whampoa hk:13 huwhy is expected to be priced within a band of $0.99 to $1.03, putting it on tack to raise as much as $5.5 billion, according to a Reuters report Thursday which cited unnamed sources. The band translates into a yield of 6.5% to 5.5%, according to Reuters. Marketing materials for the IPO had initially estimated the price range at $0.91 to $1.08 for up to 3.9 billion shares. The institutional offer received overwhelming demand, according to newswire reports citing sources Wednesday, although no formal data on the bids were made available. Hutchison shares ended Thursday morning trade up 1.5% in Hong Kong.

We are delighted to offer a superb champagne from one of the most recognisable and desirable brands in the world: the 2002 Bollinger R.D. .
James Suckling recently scored the R.D. it at 99 points - the second time he has done so - and has previously called it a "thrilling Champagne". Antonio Galloni is also a fan, calling the 2002 R.D. "striking in its beauty" with "exceptional balance and harmony" and commenting that it "should also age impeccably".
The RD, or Récemment Dégorgé (recently disgorged), is the same wine as the excellent Bollinger Vintage Grand Année but matured for eight years on the lees, providing a delicious complexity, richness and depth. It is stunning, with Antonio Galloni calling it "one of Champagne's legendary wines."
Given the costs involved in the production and the length of time the R.D. has spent maturing, it offers outstanding value for money and is sure to be a highlight of any collection. We are very pleased to offer:
|2002 Bollinger R.D. Champagne

Have you guys had a chance to check out the Pattern Anthology Winter Wonderland Collection? It's crazy gorgeous. I was so so excited when they asked if I would like to be a part of of their pattern tour. I've sewn with patterns from a number of their designers and just love them and these have been just as top notch. For my stop on the tour I'm sharing my version of Blank Slate Patterns' Amaryllis Dress.
Yeah to getting the nieces' Christmas dresses done early right? Not only am I sharing these darling dresses but I have a 10 minute pom pom cowl tutorial to share since I whipped those up to wear with the dresses.
I thought it was fun to make them hold my Christmas Banner that I usually have up in the house. I've never been one of those decorate for Christmas before Thanksgiving but seriously the temptation is STRONG this year!
Before I get to the tutorial here's some shots of the different pieces in the Winter Wonderland Collection. They are being sold at a highly discounted bundle rate (full collection, girls collection, or boys collection) for a few more days (until 11/18) after that you'll still be able to get the individual patterns but just from the different designers. I've had a chance to peek through most of the other patterns too and I can say they are all fantastic. I can't wait to have a chance to sew them all up. See more of the tour at Melly Sews, The Train to Crazy, See Kate Sew, and Shwin and Shwin and at the Winter Wonderland Gallery.
There are so many cool things about the Amaryllis Dress. It's designed to be fully reversible. The nieces love it and were fighting over the one before I finished up the second. And once they put them on they both just started twirling it was so cute. But my favorite is the fit. I think this has got to be one of the most flattering dresses I've mad for the girls. Just go by whatever size matches your kiddo's measurements and you should be good to go. There's a lot of fabric but it was pretty straightforward to put together.
As part of the pattern tour the Anthology girls are having bloggers share a bunch of different things from sibling photo and styling tips, ways to customize the patterns, and scarves to coordinate. I love cowls because you don't have to worry about them staying on or staying tied right and when it comes to kids it definitely reduces the hassle. Not only that but they are super duper easy to make and since you can make them out of almost an fabric super easy go coordinate with any outfit or personal style.
What You Need for a Kid's Cowl (for an adult sized see this cowl tutorial)
- Outside Fabric 11×25 inches
- Inside Fabric (I like fleece or flannel) 11×25 inches
- Pop Pop Trim 25 inches
- With fabric right sides together sew down both long sides leaving a 1/2 inch seam allowance.
- Turn right side out and iron.
- Fold one end under about 1 inch.
- Tuck the other end in to form a tube and pin.
- Sew down to fasten the ends together. I like to use a zig zag stitch just since it gives more coverage so I make sure to catch the inside layer. Now you have a basic cowl.
- Pin the pom pom trim to the bottom edge on the outer side of the cowl and sew.

Recently I wrote a post on how to remap your Caps Lock key in a context sensitive way using KeyRemap4MacBook. Since then (just now) I have started to use my Mac laptop with an external keyboard. Not anticipating any issues, I got a little scared when the key remap I'd spent a while investigating and setting up didn't work. It is with great relief that I now post the solution. You also get a bonus tip if you make it to the end of the post.

Caps Lock for Terminal Junkies Using OSX
It's been a couple of years since I've owned a Mac, but now I'm happily back in Apple's clutches. During the intervening period between owning my last Mac and this one, I fell in love with remapping the Caps Lockkey to be another control key. Given that I spend a fair chunk of my day in Vim and a terminal, this saves alot of strain on my pinky finger and puts an otherwise useless key to good use. However, now that I'm back in Mac land I faced a dilemma: should Caps Lock be the control key, or the command key. You see, I've become very use to hitting caps+c/v to copy and paste, but Apple, bless their infinite wisdom, have a command key that is used for this purpose. What's a geek todo?
HDMI Audio on LMDE/XFCE
While at home sick today I fired up Firefox to watch some videos on my media centre PC and was quickly disappointed to hear the audio coming from the laptop's speakers rather than through my television. XBMC on this machine uses HDMI for audio out, and has since I set it up, so I was confident that it was just a matter of configuration. After some messing around trying to find config windows in XFCE and searching the world wide web, I found a post mentioning pavucontrol. Hoping pavucontrol offered a solution I installed it and launched it from the command line. It gave me a nice GUI as seen below, and more importantly, allowed me to configure the output device that PulseAudio should use by default.
After I'd enjoyed my video, I thought I should try and gain at least a cursory understanding of what I'd just done. Wikipedia came to the rescue with a high level description of PulseAudio, and a helpful diagram that shows where it sits in the grand scheme of things. One thing that really caught my eye was the following; "One of the goals of PulseAudio is to reroute all sound streams through it…". With that in mind I'm guessing that a fair few applications on my system are using Pulse, but I'd just never noticed the issue because I could configure XBMC to use a specific output (it has an independent sound system?). In any event, I hope this helps some other confused soul to get their audio pumping through HDMI.
XBMC on Linux Mint Debian Edition
Since I built my file server (now running FreeBSD after a stint with Mythbuntu) I've used a variety of front ends to view all of the juicy media stored on it. My second most recent front-end was a re-purposed Lenovo Thinkpad Edge with a broken screen. It ran Windows 7 with Windows MCE and a Microsoft MCE remote. It was dead easy to setup, requiring only that I plugged in a HDMI cable and the IR receiver, and provided some media locations from the comfort of my couch. Unfortunately, the terrible WiFi performance meant that video often lagged for brief periods of time, or at its worst, stopped playing altogether. After a few months of frustration, I decided to try out Linux Mint Debian Edition to see if it performed better, given that all of the other WiFi connections in the house worked well. It did. So far I've been very happy with the whole system, so I thought I'd share how I got here. A warning now: if you're not comfortable with basic Linux commands and editing configuration files by hand, then you should probably stick to Windows or Mac. Having said that, attempting things beyond your current skill level is how you learn. If you get really stuck, you can always post a comment and I'll see if I can help you out.
Swearing at your File System
Recently I was working on a Solaris box remotely and lost my temper. I can't remember why, and it's not relevant. What is relevant is that in my rage, I swore at my file system. I know it was childish, and I definitely know better, but in the heat of the moment, I made a mistake. Unfortunately, I was in the process of naming a file in Vi, and I ended up with a file name full of punctuation marks. Realising my mistake, I immediately tried to remove the offending file. To my surprise, while I could see the file by issuing a simple ls, I couldn't remove it. Bash issued a syntax error, interpreting the punctuation marks as special symbols. I now realise that I could have very easily escaped the offending characters, but I wasn't that smart at the time, so what follows was my rather roundabout solution. While these steps may not be useful in this scenario, parts of the solution may prove useful for others.
Remembering back to my systems architecture classes at university, I started thinking of how I might get to my file via its inode rather than its file name. A quick search of the man page for ls revealed that I could list all of the inodes in a directory. Success; I now had another method of accessing the file. Checking the man page for mv and rm, I couldn't see any way to rename or delete the file via its inode. Having recently done some work with find I knew how versatile and useful a tool it is. Checking its man page, I was pleased to find that I could search for files by their inode number. Combining this with the exec flag, I was able to rename my file to something sensible. The code snippet below gives an example of how this all fits together.
ajmccluskey@solaris $ ls
^()$@ Documents
ajmccluskey@solaris $ ls -i
264015 ^()$@ 262180 Documents
ajmccluskey@solaris $ find . -inum 264015 -exec mv {} test \;
ajmccluskey@solaris $ ls
test Documents
So there you have it. My lacking knowledge of Bash will never get in the way of me solving a problem; albeit in a very roundabout manner.

Hijaz College aims to nurture young Muslims so they may become dynamic Muslim scholars with a robust Islamic and secular education. Graduates from Hijaz College may then return to their local communities as role models and leaders, equipped to tackle contemporary societal issues. Many young graduates have enrolled at Hijaz since 1994 from varying backgrounds. Their common achievements have been to return to their communities as thoughtful, astute and sincere young Muslims, ready to embark upon their professional careers

Does she dare have seconds?
Mallory Ford hasn't seen her ex, Travis Kincaid, since she caught him in a rather compromising position a year ago. Now he's back in town, and while heat still flickers along Mal's skin when he's near, she's already learned her lesson—the oh-so-hard way.
Except that Travis is playing to win Mal's heart, for good. Which is perfectly ridiculous. Nothing can put Mal's heart back together again, especially not the man who broke it. Some mistakes can't be erased…unless Travis can prove to Mal that what they have is too perfect to forget.

Brad's on an undercover operation, one that's targeting potential terrorists…and unintentionally bringing danger to Joy. They'll have to work together again, except this time it's not only justice they're after—it's survival. If they make it that far, they won't waste a second chance at love.

Selling Guide
When it comes time to sell your property you want it sold as quickly as possible for the best possible price. You need to get the attention of qualified potential buyers and your property should be presented as well as it can be.
Since each property is unique it requires a customised marketing plan. Your real estate representative will be the best person to put together a plan to market your property via one or more mediums, in the appropriate market and with the most exposure.
Take a moment and watch these short videos:
> Tips for Successfully Marketing Your Home
Choose a Representative
The first step in the process of selling real estate is to find a knowledgeable representative who will provide invaluable help to you throughout the process of selling your property.
Your real estate sales representative should have access to a property listing system that will make your property available to hundreds of thousands of people and several thousand other associates all searching for real estate in your area.
Getting Sale Ready
Discuss your property in detail with your RE/MAX real estate representative so they can get a sense of the features and benefits of your property. Recall the features of your property that you find compelling or desirable - upon visiting the property your representative may also find details about the property that are well worth highlighting in their advertising and marketing materials.
The property itself should be neat and tidy both inside and out and certainly a fresh coat of paint can make a world of difference in the appeal of a property. Remember, the more appealing the initial impression of your property, the more likely you are to attract the right buyers. Ask your RE/MAX Sales Associate what you might be able to do to increase the appeal of the property. Depending upon your budget, they may be able to suggest something as simple as a coat of paint or minor repairs to more in-depth work which may increase the salability of your property.
Advertising & Showing your Property
Once your property is ready to go to market your RE/MAX real estate associate will organise photography of the property and will list the property in an international database which is searchable by both consumers on the Internet and other Sales Associates through this proprietary listing tool.
As well, your representative may organise ads in newspapers, online, flyers and other publications depending upon the plan to market your property. Open houses are also a powerful way to get many potential buyers looking at your property but may not be common practice in your area. Ask your RE/MAX real estate representative how they plan to market and sell your home.
Be prepared to have prospective buyers come to your property and look through it very carefully. For most, this is one of the largest purchases they will make and therefore will be very interested in the details of the property. You may need to leave the property during this time but this allows potential purchases to see themselves living in the house, and this is well worth it if the visit turns into a sale!
Offer & Negotiation
Your local RE/MAX real estate representative will be able to outline this process for you. In all cases, any offer will be presented to you and your representative by the buyer's representative, both of whom who will remain involved in the process until it is complete.
A knowledgeable real estate agent will be able to guide you regarding the acceptable and legal approach to the process of offer and negotiation in your market.
In all cases, it is not unusual to have an offer go between the seller and the buyer a number of times before it is accepted, slightly modified each time to suit the buyer or seller.
Once your offer has been accepted, there will be an interim period of time (which varies from State to State but is typically approximately 6 weeks) between this date and "settlement". Settlement is the time where legal ownership is transferred. It may involve the sellers bank releasing mortgages and your bank placing a mortgage over the property. If the buyer or seller owns the property outright mortgages may not be required, your Solicitor or Conveyancing Company look after these details for you.

The Butterfly Outdoor Compact Wheelaway full size table tennis table is the ideal choice for homes and gardens where storage is limited and cost is an important factor.
This is a full size table. One of the most important features is the 10mm plywood resin playing surface which produces good bounce and the playing performance similar to many good quality 19mm indoor tables. It is superior to most outdoor models.
The extra strong top is weatherproof. It is as strong as steel and yet feels just like wood. Polyurethane paint protects the surface from bad weather. All of this makes the top virtually unbreakable and provides a long playing life. It is further protected by a strong galvanised steel frame. Magenta tips pieces protect the table corners.
For movement and storage the table divides into two equal halves. Each half has four legs which fold into the top for economic storage. The table takes up a width of only five inches or 12.5 centimetres. Two wheels are set into the centre of each half, providing a wheelaway system to assist with the movement of the table before and after use.
The table is available with either a green or blue playing surface, and light silver legs.
An outdoor net and post set is provided. Also included are two outdoor reverse sponge bats with a polypropylene blade and 3 quality practice balls. The posts have a clamping system which includes a rubber cover to avoid damage to the centre corners of table.
A protective full size weatherproof cover is provided for use when the table is in the storage position.
The table is delivered ready assembled. All you have to do is take off the packaging, set up the table, add the net and post set and in a matter of two or three minutes you are ready to play.
The table conforms with the new Central European Norm Safety Regulations EN 14468-1 and is protected by a three-year guarantee.
The delivery of the table is made by appointment and is carried out by a specialist two-man service, ensuring safe and convenient delivery. Delivery is made in four to seven days, dependent on customer availability and location.
The Butterfly Outdoor Compact provides fun and fitness for all the family.
Product Description
About This Product

The legs on the table fold up for easy, economic storage and the plywood playing surface gives a good consistent bounce for enhanced playability.

Marijuana may be legal in some states, but not here… not yet anyway.
Murfreesboro Police received an anonymous call about possible drug activity at a home on Palmer Drive in Murfreesboro and went to investigate on Sunday. Upon their arrival they met with 54-year old Robby Lee Gann. The person who tipped off the authorities told Police Gann was the one who was selling drugs out of the home.
Police smelled the odor of *Mary Jane (marijuana) emitting from inside the house so they invited themselves in. According to an arrest report, police found two bags of a green leafy substance sitting on an end table next to a recliner. The report stated, "Then on a consensual search I found a grinder on Mr. Ganns bed and rolling papers beside the two bags of marijuana."
Gann now faces felony marijuana possession charges and possession of drug paraphernalia charges. He will appear in court on April 24, 2014.
MPD Arrest Report #13-00310 (14-00310)
*Mary Jane: Mary Jane is a slang word used to describe marijuana.

Who does not like olives on pizzas, sandwiches, salads, pies, or alone? Well, stay here and continue to read this article. After reading this, you'll definitely love these tiny delicacies. Here, I'm going to explain the amazing health benefits of eating olives that improve overall human health.
Olives are small, delicious and healthful fruit that grow on olive trees, Olea europaea. These medium-size trees are naturally originated from Mediterranean countries. They belong to a group of fruit named drupes or stone fruits. In the Mediterranean countries, 90% of olives are used to prepare olive oil which is known as a key ingredient of a healthy and balanced diet. Ancient Greeks believed that growing olive would bring prosperity and peace in the region because entire nation would rely on this crop in order to protect most of the life essentialities.
Olives are incredibly delectable and affordable food which is mainly consumed as a starter in various counties. You can also enjoy them with or without bone, whole or chopped, on top or as an ingredient in many recipes. This fruit not only gives you a heavenly taste but also offers a lot of healthy attributes that it brings to our body as goodness of nature. However, it is crucial to consume a moderate dose of olives. Excess of everything is usually not beneficial. So, whenever you have the opportunity to eat olives, a moderate dose will always be healthy.
Popular Type of Olives:
Olives come in dozens of varieties depending on the region where they are originated and cultivated. There are widely available in different shapes, sizes, and colours. Black and green olives are the world's famous types of olives which are commonly used. Followings are some popular olive varieties:
This giant-size olive comes in both green and black colours. The green variety has a mild and bitter vegetal taste, while black is subtle, softer and sweeter, as well as having a fruity taste.
Although this small brownish black olive is hard to pit, it has a nice flavor, which is just like the taste of nuts.
This small brownish-purple variety is commonly found in southern France. These chewy and flavourful olives are hard to pit as compared to other varieties.
This purplish Greek variety is very popular in US markets and used in most recipes as a good choice of ingredients.
Sicilian Green:
They are sometimes called Sicilian Colossals. These oversized olives have a dense and sour flesh.
These wrinkled black olives are often very salty, having a meaty and chewy texture.
The Nutritional Value of Olives:
Nutritionists recommend that you should take 7 olives a day if you want to live longer and healthy. Olives are considered as one of the world's healthiest fruits which have high nutritional value. These tiny delicacies are a rich source of vitamin E, vitamin A, and vitamin B, which helps in maintaining a healthy life. They also contain several minerals including iron, iodine, potassium, sodium, copper and calcium. They have low carb content and are high in monounsaturated fat and water content. Additionally, they also have many antioxidants and plant compounds which make them more nutritious.

Olives are luscious, exquisite, wholesome and satisfying fruits widely available all around the world. There are a huge number of health benefits that they can offer. Here are 10 reasons why you should incorporate into these little delicacies every day.
When free radicals oxidize cholesterol, blood vessels are damaged, and fat builds up in arteries, possibly leading to a heart attack. The antioxidant nutrients in black olives block this oxidation of cholesterol and help in preventing heart diseases. They also have healthy monounsaturated fat which can reduce the risk of atherosclerosis and improve the amount of good cholesterol. According to recent research, monounsaturated fat found in olives is also helpful to reduce blood pressure and to keep LDL cholesterol at a normal level, which supports a healthy heart.
It has been shown by research that monounsaturated fat found in olives may help in weight loss. The moderate olive oil consumption not only supports the fat breakdown inside fat cells but also burns belly fat and reduces insulin insensitivity. According to research, the aroma of this oil can give you a feeling of fuller and cut calories intake by almost 200 a day.
In the Mediterranean region, people commonly consume olives and olive oil and rarely experience cancer and other chronic diseases as compared to American and European countries. It is possible that olives are rich in antioxidants and also have anti-inflammatory properties which make them a natural protection against cancer. They are also full of monounsaturated fatty acid and oleic acid which reduce chronic and excessive inflammation to fight various kinds of cancer. Test-tube experiments indicate that this little healthiest fruit can disturb the life cycle of cancer cells in the colon, stomach and breast because of containing a high content of phenolic antioxidants and anti-cancer compounds (terpenoid and squalene).
If you often suffer the itchy eyes, runny nose, shortness of breath and congestion of allergies, then you should consume olive and olive oil on a daily basis. New Research reveals that olives may play a special role in the anti-allergenic diet. Because of anti-inflammatory properties and a high amount of antioxidants, they are considered as a home remedy for allergies. When you eat olives every day, you'll be able to breathe easier. They will improve blood flow and help to lessen the effects of illnesses like asthma.
Black olives are abundant in fatty acids and antioxidants that can protect your skin too. They contain vitamin E, which is potent to provide the optimal protection to the skin from ultraviolet radiation. This healthiest fruit also helps in fighting skin cancer and premature aging. Consuming this oval-shaped fruit can also eliminate wrinkles by 20% as they have oleic acid. So, if you want to make your facial skin healthy, glowing and younger, just apply a few drops of olive oil to vulnerable spots of your face and let it work its magic for 15 minutes and then wash your face with warm water.
These little fruit are rich in iron which plays a vital role in the production of energy. If you're suffering from a lack of iron, it means that your tissues don't get enough oxygen, and you often feel cold or weak. Iron offers assistance in the synthesis of carnitine, an amino acid that converts fat into energy. In this way, it not only boosts power but also improves the function of immune system. According to research, an average cup of olives provides you with 4.4 mg of iron.
Olives are also better for eye health. According to research, one cup of olives have 10% of daily recommended intake of vitamin A. When you eat this tiny luscious fruit; it is converted into a retinal form in your body, which is beneficial for healthy eyes. Vitamin A enables the eye to make the better difference between light and dark, since improving night vision. Moreover, it is believed that vitamin A is effective against several ocular diseases such as macular degeneration, cataracts, glaucoma and other age-related eye diseases.
Olives are a rich source of a powerful compound called oleocanthal which contains strong anti-inflammatory properties. Because of these features, they naturally reduce the pain of chronic inflammatory diseases like arthritis. They are also helpful to reduce the risk of osteoporosis, a disease in which bone mass and bone quality are decreased and the chances of bone fracture are high. So, add olives to a daily diet and get an effective aid for pain reduction and bone health.
This healthiest fruit also contains polyphenols, a natural chemical that lessens oxidative stress in the brain. According to research from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, consuming a daily serving of olives helps improve your memory by 25%. So, include them into your daily diet and have a healthy brain and sharp memory.
A recent study in Italy has revealed that eating 10 olives before a meal can reduce appetite by up to 20%. This is because of the monounsaturated fatty acids found in these green tiny food. These fatty acids slow the digestion process and stimulate the hormone cholecystokinin, a hormone that delivers messages of fullness to the brain. Additionally, these acids also stimulate the production of adiponectin, a chemical that burns fat for five hours after ingestion.
Common Serving Methods of Olives:
As we all know that cured and ready-to-eat olives have been an essential part of Mediterranean diet since ancient times. But, now they are getting popularity as finger food in numerous other countries and easily available in the grocery stores and supermarkets. Both black and green olives are used in a huge number of traditional recipes of different countries. You can eat this little fruit as you like. Here are some serving tips which you should know:

Ahhh... can't believe it's already a week after Apink was here.
I can't believe that I somehow get that PCD too. Plus, I think I can also be a real jinjja true Pinkeu Panda. Cause why not? I actually know all of their songs and did fan chant together with the pandas like a real one ㅋㅋ
Apink 2018 Asia Tour in Kuala Lumpur
Oh! I went there with my closest pinkeu panda which is non-other than my lil bro. Yes, he is a Pink Panda and that is how I get to know Apink quite well, too. And psst, he's a fan of du dum: Jung Eunji!
Actually, we planned to have him shout for her name (like fans always do at a certain time) but we can't get it done cause we were just so bad at timing. heol~
Okay me, let's just post the photos, shall we? I meant we don't really have a lot of it but my bro has like few quick shots of them and video snippets to be saved on his ig highlight. Maybe you can check his profile for that here: Pinkeu Panda Bro
안대! 끝이야?! ㅠㅜ
Ah! I still can remember the fan chants haha. It goes like either this: 영원히 사랑해, 영원히 함게해, 영원히 우리는... 에이핑크! or this: 박초롱, 윤보미, 정은지, 손내은, 김남주, 오하영... 에이핑크! and the others were just following the words from the songs ^^
Just how our day went?
Firstly, we went to have lunch with our family and they dropped us off at KL Sentral so that we can go to the venue by MRT which is easier. But before that, we strolled around NU Sentral first to go for gifts hunting for my brother to give to Eunji (I have mine ready for Bomi from home). So we bought few items and wrapped it on the spot somewhere in the corner near MPH haha (but too bad we can't give them gifts emm so we're planning to just post them over) then off we go to the MRT station. It was exciting for me cause that was my first time on MRT whoopsie.
Reached the place and went for a lucky draw which was why we were there quite early, too. Unfortunately, we both got the high-touch pass only. emmm but later we were so grateful to have gotten that instead of photo pass cause it ended quite late than we expected lol. Went to get the official merchandise and still, we have a lot of time to wait. We moved around few spots to find a good resting spot but couldn't find one and made a decision to just go to Sunway Velocity which is just nearby and grabbed some dinner.
Dinner taken and just hanging out by going to a few shops before heading back to the venue. The timing was quite good cause we reached there at around 7 and went for Maghrib before entering the hall :) And it begins~~~
Oh! They sang quite a lot of songs. Maybe I can try to list out some which I can remember.
Not in the real sequence.
I'm So Sick, Five, No No No, Boom Pow Love, Drummer Boy, Mr Chu, Luv, Cause You're My Star, Remember, Always and more but I can't remember the titles.
It ended at around 2230 and we waited for the high touch but as usual, the securities were just so asdfghjkl annoying cause they kept pushing us and said "hurry hurry!" and so again I can't really remember what happened during that 1 sec? (I just run through them with the sound aaaaaa with my hands out at the side to just make sure my hand did touch theirs lol) Plus, they dimmed the light and we didn't get to really see their faces lol what? They were so cautious and caring, too cause they each wore a glove so that everyone can high touch with no problem.
Pfft: we literally have to hold up both our hands like you know when we gotta show our hands are clear from things to the police? but not like the 'hands up' position hahaha
에이핑크 다 넘나 이쁘다~ 에이핑크 짱! 또 와요~
A star among the pandas,
Dyna d Dayn,
(慧琳, 다이애나)

Elin Nordegren breaks her silence.
The former wife of Tiger Woods opened up with People magazine – her first time being interviewed since the cheating scandal broke back in November. Elin shared her sadness over losing the family she had hoped for: "I have been through the stages of disbelief and shock, to anger and ultimately grief over the loss of the family I so badly wanted for my children." Despite all of that, she feels confident in the way she's handled it all. "I also feel stronger than I ever have. I have confidence in my beliefs, my decisions and myself."
Elin also shared her future plans, including giving herself plenty of time to bounce back: "My immediate plan is for the kids and me to continue to adjust to our new situation. I am going to keep taking classes, but my main focus is to try to give myself time to heal."
Elin's full interview can be found in the current issue of the magazine. I give her a lot of credit for being brave and opening up about such a private event that became such a public nightmare.

Google Docs – Documents are just a fingertip away
Google Docs was released on April 24th 2011 and has since been downloaded over 1 million times. Not too shabby, but how good is the app, really? How easily can photos of printed texts be converted into documents?
Find out if this app packs as mighty a punch as we all hope(d) it would in today's review.
|Reviewed version
|Latest version
|Varies with device
Features & Use
Test device: HTC Desire
Android-Version: 2.3.3
Mods: Root, CM7 Custom ROM
A pop-up greets you when you first start up the app, informing you of the Google Docs app's most important function:
• Dashboard
• Filtering (swiping right/left lets you access other categories)
• Accounts (how to select another account)
• Upload (how to upload files)
This information can be revisited at any time via 'Quick Hints' in the menu.
Hit 'OK' to access the app itself. The first thing you'll see is an overview in classic Google apps style: a nice, clear display granting instant access to the app's main functions. Return to this overview at any given time by clicking on the icon in the upper left corner. The icon is always displayed, meaning you needn't waste your time navigating backwards. There's a 'Create new' and a 'Search' button to the right of the icon.
The following functions can be found and accessed in the main overview:
• All items
• Collections
• Starred
• Documents
• Images
• More (this opens up a drop-down menu via which text/table/presentation files can be accessed)
The 'Send feedback' option displays a small window (similar to the one that pops up after an app has crashed, grrr) via which you can send information regarding system data and a screenshot to Google.
There are settings, but the only the cache size can configured. The caches can also be deleted.
Text editing:
As was to be expected, editing texts with the Google Docs app is a breeze. Only the way in which formatted documents are displayed leaves quite a lot to be desired (more details in the Screen & Controls section).
Table documents can be viewed as well as edited, but, in all honesty, looking at graphs and tables on a smartphone screen is exhausting. Long texts are never displayed in their entirety; in order to display it click on it as though you intended to edit it, it will then be displayed in full.
PowerPoint files can also be viewed. Click and you will see options for skipping ahead or navigating backwards. Editing PowePoint files is not possible.
Another function that works brilliantly: looking at pictures. Swipe across the screen to navigate through the images. There's also a pinch-to-zoom function.
Click on any file in the overview and an options menu appears:
• Private (this is not being supported yet)
• Owner (this is not being supported yet, either, but in the future you can assign an owner in case you have more than one Google account)
• Add Contacts (as well as select contacts you can also allow them to view and/or edit files; contacts will receive an email with the relevant information)
Google Docs is registered in the Android Share Function, meaning you can send certain file formats from all other apps to Google Docs. When doing so, pick a file name and account and select whether the file should be converted to a Google Docs document.
The image-to-text function:
OCR (Optical Character Recognition) is a pretty great thing in and of itself. Take a picture of a text and have it transformed into a real text that can be edited and copied.
In order to use this function, click on the 'Create new' button followed by 'Document from photo'. Unfortunately, I have to report that this only worked sporadically during my test run of Google Docs. For instance, only the first paragraph was recognized and turned into text for every multi-paragraph text photo I took. That being said, the texts of every first paragraph that successfully underwent OCR were spot on.
It works like this: you take a photo, the file is uploaded to Google where it is 'transformed' into text—all this takes but a moment. The new document is not adapted to the screen size, meaning it isn't zoomed down but rather stays in its original size, which does not exactly make for optimized viewing…
The app comes with a 4x1 widget via which marked documents can be accessed and new files/docs can be created.
Lastly, there's also an option for printing, provided you've integrated a printer to Google Cloud Print.
Bottom line:
Google Docs already is quite a mighty little thing: with it you can view your files (texts, tables, presentations and images) as well as edit texts and tables. That being said this doesn't always work optimally. The share function is a great tool for sending files to contacts as well as to Google Docs.
A few functions are still missing but will be integrated into the app as soon as they are ready.
Screen & Controls
As mentioned in the previous section, editing tables using Google Docs isn't exactly a walk in the park. At times only a few letters a re displayed, but what can you expect—smartphone screens aren't exactly gargantuan.
The formatting of text files is equally problematic. For instance, space characters are not displayed well, meaning that if you have a two column layout it can happen that words from the right column spill over to the left, or else to the next sentence.
Text displays are not always adapted to fit the width of the screen—in one case a letter had slipped off to the right even though it was meant to be at the beginning of the sentence.
Aside from these minor (but annoying) glitches, the app can be navigated quite easily and the information window is very helpful.
Google, take note: there's still room for improvement on this front!
Speed & Stability
Google Docs crashed once at the beginning of my test run, but that kind of thing never reoccurred. I should add that the app hasn't been on the market for very long.
Aside from this the app performs quite well, though loading files does take a while, seeing as they have to be accessed via Google servers.
Price/Performance Ratio
Google Docs can be downloaded for free (and without ad banners) from the Android Market.
