So, today is my last day and I saved the hardest post for the last. Saying goodbye to the wonderful Verve Divas. Man, talk about talent. For those of us who are fortunate enough to be on a design team, KNOW how important the other girls on the team are. Believe me, if there is drama, snarkiness or competitiveness it can totally ruin an experience. Not surprising, I am happy to report that the Verve Divas are WONDERFUL and talented with none of the yuckiness. Just an amazing group of girls!
I couldn't figure out what to do with today's post, so I thought it may be fun to pick a few of my favorite Verve cards and post them. I can't share cards from all Divas with me throughout my term, (that would be one HUGE ole post), I chose 8 fabulous ranging in style and stamp sets.
OK seriously, this was HARD!! I mean, have you SEEN their galleries? I wish I could have posted cards from ALL the Divas, I hated "leaving out" anyone!! Girls, you all have been wonderful to me and wonderful to design with. I will miss you all more than I can say. Big hugs to you all.
Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day. I'll leave you with one of my favs I made and here is the link to my Verve gallery.

We invited all our single friends over to help us decorate our tree on Christmas Eve. Of course one has to give in order to receive, so we lured them over with promises of food. Our traditional Christmas Eve feast is seafood, and this year was no exception. We served boiled shrimp as an appetizer. The main course was clam chowder, a calamari salad with tomatoes and capers, and a rich and luscious seafood casserole with shrimp, halibut, lobster, and a Japanese panko bread crust.
Recipes? Sure!
Ditalini used Food Network recipes for her calamari salad and seafood casserole, so to ensure credit goes where it is due, I'll just post the recipe links:
My clam chowder recipe comes from my father and has been a deMenthe family Christmas tradition for nearly 30 years. I posted the recipe last year, and here's the link.
The boiled shrimp are so easy. Just buy a a pound of jumbo (21/25 count) shrimp, the kind that are already shelled and deveined. Tail on or tail off, your choice (I used tail off this time, only because people never know what to do with the tails after they pull them off the shrimp — on the other hand, tails do give people who are squeamish about finger food something to hold onto). If you buy the shrimp frozen, thaw them out in water first, then drain. Pour one or two beers into a pot, add two tablespoons of Old Bay Seasoning, and bring to a boil. Add the shrimp and boil them for two to three minutes, until nice and pink. Serve with cocktail sauce and lemon slices. There's nothing to it, and it's a great appetizer.
Seafood and Christmas Eve . . . it's a match made in heaven!

Enter a search term such as "mobile analytics" or browse our content using the filters above.
That's not only a poor Scrabble score but we also couldn't find any results matching
Check your spelling or try broadening your search.
Sorry about this, there is a problem with our search at the moment.
Please try again later.
2013 has seen plenty of changes to paid search, mainly driven by Google. For a brand in a competitive market like insurance, little tweaks here and there matter.
Changes include the addition of Google's own comparison products to the SERPs, meaning less visibility for organic results, enhanced campaigns, and changes to the style of PPC ads.
I've been asking Heledd Jones, head of search marketing at Confused.com (and an Econsultancy guest blogger), about the challenges presented by these changes, and her thoughts on how PPC will evolve in the next year.
What are the major challenges with PPC for the insurance market?
I find one of the most basic, but frustrating, challenges is creating PPC ads that stand out. We're continually testing on our key terms, but as we work in a highly regulated industry, writing adverts that stand out and satisfy our compliance department at the same time can be fun!
As most of us are in the same boat, I think it creates quite a bland offering to consumers, as everyone is shouting about the (similar) savings they can make. Although when we have tested some 'zany' copy, quite often the boring, savings message wins!
How do you feel about Google's own 'sponsored' comparison listings?
Well, we welcome competition in the price comparison industry as it encourages market growth, but, of course, we like a level playing field.
So of course we'd love the chance to have a similar ad to the one Google has, using visual logos and unique calls-to-action within the advert, especially for our new product, Quick Quote, which could be a great solution for customers on the search page if they allowed us to integrate it via an API.
In the finance sector (on Google) we've seen a drop in searches compared to last year across most of the sector e.g. insurance, credit cards. With that comes rising CPCs through increased competition, exacerbated by the launch of Enhanced Campaigns and the prominence of Google compare in some of these searches.
So it's been a competitive year which means testing and ongoing optimisation have become increasingly important... the PPC basics of improving CTR and QS don't get out of date!
How have you adapted to Enhanced Campaigns so far?
We were initially hit quite badly as we'd worked so hard to build out granular accounts for tablet and mobile in the year prior to the launch, so we saw our overall CPCs rise quite dramatically as we lost the competitive advantage we think we had on tablet CPCs.
Now that the dust has settled on those costs, we're enjoying the simplicity that consolidation has brought to account management, and of course the fun of testing the new features.
It's interesting that Bing/Yahoo seem to be running both in parallel, and aren't talking about a cut-off date to move advertisers across.
How is PPC working on mobile for you?
Good question. We're generally happy with our performance on mobile but you need to keep a close eye on it as the top two positions get so much volume, it can be really difficult if you're not in those top slots and of course the conversion rates are so different to desktop/tablet so again needs close monitoring.
Car insurance can be quite difficult to buy over a smartphone, we've had a responsive quote engine for some time now but this year launched a new service called Quick Quote which is perfect for people comparing car insurance prices on the go.
Basically, I think to make mobile work for PPC you need to make your products as easy as possible for your customers!
Are we likely to see the SERPs becoming less organic, more paid in the next year?
I think so, in our sector our natural search space has been squeezed down by Google Compare which I can only assume it will test further next year.
I really enjoyed the recent Econsultancy posts about this – merging PPC ads within organic results will be very interesting to see, but I'm more excited by some of the opportunities for brands e.g. larger/ image adverts, as we're in a competitive industry so anything that can help us own our brand space is great, albeit it coming at a cost.
What do you see as the major PPC trends for 2014?
Data, targeting, testing. I keep hearing that this industry will be moving from targeting keywords to audiences over the next few years so it will be interesting to see which new targeting options Google might launch next year.
When you think of things they've already launched like RLSA, weather-based bidding and improved location-based bidding, I think the more data you have, the better, for winning some incremental PPC volume.
The other trend I have to mention is in-house vs. agency as we recently brought most of our activity in-house. The more tools that become available via Google and other vendors, the harder that agencies will need to work to prove their value over and above recruiting an in-house team.
Comments (2)
I would imagine the lack of a level playing field in the comparison sector must really be hitting hard on results.
I notice the the Google "Ad" doesnt appear to have a label denoting this as an "Ad" which seems rather strange.
I suspect that this is some form of "user testing" to make the interface better for customers ;)
Nice post. If you can get to grips with AdWords scripts you will save valuable time and stay ahead of the competition.

Also, Kirk is still young and relatively inexperienced in STID, so its believable that he may let his emotions get the best of him from time to time, especially when his surrogate father figure is murdered right in front of him. Picard, on the other hand, is much older and highly experienced. The Picard in FC has gone through seven seasons of the TV show, including his dealings the Borg. So Picard becoming a raving revenge-obsessed lunatic is much less believable, especially when it contradicts events in the TV show.
For one thing I don't really agree with the criticism that Picard was out of character in First Contact. Sure, he's in "action movie" mode, which made him a bit angrier than usual. He certainly acted in a different manner in "I, borg" but it's also possible that it was still eating away at him. It could have been boiling up inside him and the events of First Contact are what cause him to snap. In fact it's the scenes with Picard in First Contact that are the most interesting. That said, I think Into Darkness is the better movie. I feel like it had a deeper message, I mean what is FC trying to say? There's so much going on at once. They're both good movies though. I love first contact's score.
Both movies really are similar in that they ruin a classic villain by ramming them into an action piece that really doesn't capture Star Trek. As stand alone action movies they're both alright, but the acting is forced and the characters are different. Picard and Kirk in these movies are both cliche action heroes and not the thoughtful captains they were in TOS/TNG.
I'm sorry but what version of TOS where you watching where Kirk didn't have action hero moments? Because its sounds pretty different form the one I watched.
I'm not really interested in stating which one is better because they are not really comparable. ID is only a few months out of the theatre and FC is about 17 years old. I know Picard was out of character in FC but if I'm being honest I have to say that I actually found the FC Picard interesting. At the end of BOBW I liked how they closed out the episode with that scene that let the audience know that he was damaged in a way that would resonate for a long time. If it hadn't been for "Descent" I think the FC Picard would have been pretty accurate. I would have also been ok with the Borg Queen had they not tried to over sensualize her. Into Darkness was a lot of fun for me. It was pretty much what I expected for an action packed blockbuster. I liked it. I'm looking forward to watching it again as soon as I can snag a copy.
So what you actually have said is you prefer the underlying concept and thesis of STFC over STID. I thought we are comparing movies and their execution, however you try to dumb down the themes of STID, the movie is presented in a far superior way, far more polished and the standard of acting and scripting is very well aligned with its peers on the silver screen. The problem with FC is they carried over the same type of actors, executed the same dialog patterns, and the same technobabble driven scripting which was barely excusable in 90's Television and totally crushed by anything else in Hollywood cinema at that time. You seem to have put a spin on the themes on STID, welll I could say the cast were so fundamentally bland that the writing put Patrick Stewart / Picard into a desparate situation of going out of character with irrational outbursts of rage against the machines to keep within the 'action and drama' that FC promised, you see the spin goes both ways? You, aswell as jarod and shazam spend an awful amount of time looking for reasons to dislike STID, when it would be easier to just get over the film and enjoy the back catalog.
How exactly is Picard being out of character an argument for ID over FC? ID turns Spock into Kirk (KHAAAAAAN!), turns Kirk into a Captain who makes bizarre decisions for no reason (Hiding on the ocean against Scotty's recommendations when the ship is just as well hidden in space) and turns Khan into a sentimental daddy figure who is easily controlled simply by threatening his followers. Even after he somehow got his hands on those same followers, and, instead of waking them up and taking Section 31's technology to relaunch his plans for world domination, instead decides to just hide them in torpedoes and keep doing Marcus' bidding. Both films have significant issues. I wouldn't include either one as among the best Trek films, even though they are both reasonably enjoyable. Ultimately, the quality of the writing for both is, to me, equally dubious. ID of course has better special effects - that's a given, being released 17 years later. But the general execution of both films is more or less on the same level. I would give the very slight edge to FC, simply because the extended fakeout of demoting Kirk at the beginning of ID and then reinstating him without any real consequences rather detracts, for me, from the overall coherence of the story.
In my opinion, First Contact achieved with ease what Abrams & Co were always talking about with Trek 2009 and STD. You didn't need to know anything about Trek to get excited by First Contact. A much faster pace, a completely new visual style, more action, an exciting space battle, that closer-to-earth approach with 21st century characters bouncing against the 24th century characters. And it's LOADED with references to previous Trek without being annoying or contrived. References to DS9, TOS, VOY, previous TNG episodes (like Dixon Hill episodes), Klingons, Romulans, Vulcans, Zephram Cochrane. Holy heck, even Barclay is in it. First Contact condenses the ENTIRE franchise into one film. First Contact is the very first choice when I want to introduce someone to Trek. It IS the same as Star Trek 2009 regarding all intentions. But I like the execution of First Contact a lot more.
I don't get the complaint that Picard was out of character, let alone enough to ruin the film (although this may be a little bit from watching it before "I, Borg" and finding that a less satisfying TBoBW sequel); encountering the Borg briefly twice (the latter time being Lore's pretty different version) in seven years doesn't seem enough for him to not want vengeance against them, especially when they seem increasingly likely to take over his ship and assimilate all of humanity. How did Spock grow in ID? The technobabble seemed pretty minimal in FC and the writing overall a lot better than most blockbuster films (including from 1996).
That are my feelings as well. At the beginning of First Contact the Borg have completely assimilated Earth. The temporal wake let's Picard see this before he goes back in time. The stakes are super high for him. This is probably his worst fears come to life. And would anyone really just be "over" what happened to him. Sure he's dealt with it somewhat in the past, but that doesn't mean it's just gone from him now. The film shows how human he is. If we really look at those other episodes after BOBW we have one injured Borg with emotions and in Decent we have a splintered group that are chaotic and emotional, doing none of the things they did in the past. First Contact is the first time we have the same Borg from BOBW.
He understands the value and meaning of friendship. His cavalier attitude towards life and death have changed. He admits his choice to be stoic comes more from not wanting to deal with the emotions of losing Vulcan than from simply adhering to the philosophical aspects of being a Vulcan. That's a big personal admission.
I don't think there's even a comparison. ID is basically a TWOK reworking without the intelligence or wisdom of the original, plus Kirk as an uber-cocky bastard, plus a decent, but half-baked, not to mention undercooked social commentary. Basically terrible. FC is still a great Star Trek film, that also a great film.
I don't think that ID is anything like TWOK except for the villain(who's very different personality-wise) and the 5 minute death scene which is deliberate. Otherwise the plots are nothing alike.

Literature: Analyzing Poetry is a Multi-Step Process ( Day1 of 2)
Lesson 3 of 11
Objective: SWBAT determine the theme of a poem and analyze how that theme emerges by analyzing the title, structure and language of a poem about gender.
Warm Up
Throughout this unit we will read a variety of literature from multiple genres. Today we read and analyze poetry. Since we have had a lesson designed to teach the reading of poetry explicitly, I want to give students a reminder of reading poetry during this warm up. As students enter, I ask them to write down everything they remember about analyzing poetry. I project this prompt on the Smart Board:
Pretend that your best friend doesn't know anything about reading poetry. You are the expert. Write down instructions you would give your friend so they are able to read poetry well.
Accessing prior knowledge is a great step to this lesson which will expand on that skill. After students write their list, we will discuss and make a classroom list of steps to analyzing poetry. link to old lesson here.
Just like yesterday, I split the classroom into two groups, boys on one side and girls on the other. The poems we are reading deal with gender issues. I ask students to split into gender segregated groups so they can discuss each poem with like minded peers, then we will come together and discuss the perspective of the poems from each gender.
I distribute Deliberate by Amy Uyematsu and Homage to my Hips by Lucille Clifton. While both of these poems deal with females, I want students to consider how our gender influences how we read literature and what we take away from it. I give Deliberate to the boy group and Homage to the girl group. I set the timer to five minutes and tell the students to simply read and think about their poem. I tell them to read the poem numerous times. I want students to simply silently read and think (RL.9-10.10).
Next, I set the timer to five minutes and give students the following prompt:
Now that you have thought about the poem, I want you to take a few minutes and annotate. Write down your thoughts about the poem. Ask questions, note your favorite lines, etc.
I do this in two separate steps because I want the students' annotations to mean something. I've found that when I ask a student to simply read and annotate, they grab a pencil or highlighter and just start coloring. Instead, they need to know that annotation is a strategy to develop deeper meaning out of reading. I want students to read, gather their thoughts, reread and annotate.
I set the timer to seven minutes and give students the instructions.
For the next seven minutes, you will round robin your annotated poems. I will give you 30-45 seconds with each poem. Read your classmate's annotations carefully. If you have some feedback for him/her, write it on a post it and attach it to the poem.
Annotating is a great strategy to read more deeply and think more critically about a piece of text. I want students to see what other students are annotating. Students get to read the thinking of their peers. It gives the writer positive reinforcement and the reader a new perspective on the text.
Next, I give students this prompt:
Now, discuss your poems and your annotations. Make sure to read the poem aloud at least three times. You'll have eight minute to discuss the answers to these questions, 1. How does the title contribute to the theme of the poem? (RL.9-10.2). What is the poem saying literally and figuratively? (RL.9-10.2) What is the speaker's attitude toward his/her subject? How do you know that? Find the text evidence that supports your analysis of the author's tone (RL.9-10.1). Chunk your poem into sections that make sense. Evaluate how the author structured the poem and how that contributes to the theme (SL.9-10.5).
By this time, students have read the poem numerous times. Answering these questions should be an easy process. I want students to realize that to reach conclusions about literature, often a reader must read a text numerous times. These videos, students discuss the title of a poem and students discuss the structure of a poem, demonstrate this process.
Resources (2)
Write a reflection
Lastly, I ask students to do some writing. Now that they have read the poem numerous times, annotated, discussed and answered analytical questions, I want them to write about the poem. They answer this prompt:
Now that you have worked through your poem, I want you to do some writing. In an extended writing, explain what is the author's attitude toward femininity and gender? How do you know that? Provide text evidence to support your analysis. (W.9-10.9)

Recent State Court proceedings
Display comments as
(Linear | Threaded)
I would like to know why all those charges were dismissed and by whom? Is it Don Moore and Don Hudson dismissing them because they don't want to do any work? Or did Judge Alexander dismiss them for a legal reason. I know that Moore and Hudson dismiss a lot of bad check warrants because they don't want to have to do anything. They are the reason a lot of businesses and people lose money because they will not prosecute them. I received two bad checks at my business and paid to have warrants issued for them. My name was listed on the warrant as the prosecutor along with my cell phone number and Don Hudson had the nerve to tell me he dismissed them because he could not contact me!! BULL!! If he had picked up the phone and dialed my number, I would have answered!! Now I am out over $800.00 AND the
$ 40.00 I paid for the warrants to be issued!!! And they yell about needing to be a full time court!!! What?? They need more time to dismiss more charges!?!?!??
$ 40.00 I paid for the warrants to be issued!!! And they yell about needing to be a full time court!!! What?? They need more time to dismiss more charges!?!?!??
four cases the charges on thier face seem just a reason toarrest someone, the rest probably lacked a case mostly just way for bail bond company and the Sheriff to fatten the wallet
my2centsNo. Apply to other departments and get the tnraniig you need. The experience will put you ahead of other candidates. You should be able to transfer. As for what you've heard about other police departments you should be doing your own homework. Look at their websites and request an application. Do the job of getting the job. What you heard is not enough if you are serious about becoming a cop. Good luck with your future..
Most of this info is from the wesite at: http://www.jacksoncountygov.com/Index.aspx?page=55. Jackson County State Court. The state court was established by a 1970 legislative act that designated certain existing countywide courts of limited jurisdiction as state courts. State courts may exercise jurisdiction over all misdemeanor violations, including traffic cases, and civil actions, regardless of the amount claimed, unless the superior court has exclusive jurisdiction. State Court of Jackson County, Honorable Robert D. Alexander, 5000 Jackson Parkway, Suite 250, Jefferson, GA 30549, FAX: 706-387-6354. Phone: 706-387-6346. Don Moore and Don Hudson are Solicitors (lawyers) for Jackson County. Their phone numbers are: (706)387-6331 & (706)387-6336. Call and ask about why the high number of dismissals.
dont have to call, police will arrest on flimsy cases, flimsy why continue the charde why not just cut the loss and not risk lawsuit for false arrest, the dismissals probably come with letter stating there is enough evidence to proceed but we feel justice has been served. as opposed to the arrest was overcharged and this was something that is not meeting the requirements charged under the arrest please dont sue.
Almost all cases are settled out of court. This is nothing unusual. Notice, only one trial and he was found not guilty. We don't have a trial system. We have a plea-bargain system. It saves the government tons of money to reach deals that are good for the government and the "offenders". If those of you want a trial on every charge without a deal you will need two full-time courts and half of Jackson County will be in jail. These new problems will be much worse than the old ones.
yea but there is such a thing as to much plea bargaining.When kids r getting hurt i mean come on it has to stop somewhere.

There's a new loot item available through the TCG expansion Servants of the Betrayer: Goblin Weather Machine - Prototype 01-B. When clicked, it summons one of four different weather effects over the head of its owner. Like most small pets, the weather effect follows along with its owner and does not affect combat.
But is it a true small pet?
At least one other database site lists this item as a small pet. But I think they've got it wrong. Why? Because WoW's in-game mechanics don't consider this weather entity a small pet. You can activate it without unsummoning your current small pet. Players have only ever been able to activate one small pet at a time (bugs aside). Therefore, the game clearly does not define this entity as a small pet. Plus it cannot be selected, so it doesn't have the in-game tag of "companion" like every other small pet. To me, this is more of a neat device rather than a pet.
So should I add it to the site?
I recognize that some of you may wish to add this "pet" to your collections. So I've chosen to let you decide. I'm asking all of you diehard collectors to vote with your opionion.
The final decision
On the evening of April 15, 2008, after one week of voting, I'll be closing this topic and I'll tally the results. If the majority of people agree that this item should be considered a small pet, then I'll add it to the site.
UPDATE: Voting for this topic has been closed.

Ok so here is the new deal, I went to circuit city in an attempt to save some money...yep I'm not happy... I bought a pretty decent head unit a JVC KD-HDR30 and with circuit city I get a free install... now I was totally aware of the fact that the speakers on my right side were not working correctly at all...but I figured I'd give it a shot and just throw the car at them... so here is what happened...they installed the radio with a harness adapter that hooks up to the ford harness...when I went to go pick up the car they let me know that the ford harness is not working properly and that they need to rewire the whole thing...which cost me an additional $80 for them to do... ok so they gave me 3-4 hours ETA ...so I got the car later, and the store was already about to close..... But the guy did tell me that I may wanna invest into an upgrade on my speakers which I thought was a little odd....my speakers say MACH on them (not sure if that means they are the MACH 460 or not) so I was messing with the radio, I do like the headunit and all...but there was something weird with this...it was all the way up to volume 35 and not very loud at all....the Bass was little to nothing...(I KNOW there HAS to be more bass to this system)...I played around with it even more and noticed that the BALANCE was set almost all the way to the right side....why???? why is it that they are not balanced at 0?? I parked the car at home...changed the settings to all be at ZERO and guess what!...the tweeter speaker on the left side was SOOO loud....WAY too loud...and the rest of the speakers were WAY too low... I put my ear up to each speaker....the bass speaker in the door on the left side was OFF, and the tweeter on the right door was OFF...and of course the balance was way off! I am very ****ed off and they know it now because I gave them a pretty nasty call....and they agreed to fix it.... but I don't wanna have to go through this again....do you guys think that they didn't bypass an amplifier possibly?? why so little bass??? I don't understand (I REALLY do think that they did not bypass one of the amps tho) please help!!
Your issue is basically the sole reason I won't mess with my Mach 460 system in my Mustang. I have added a subwoofer to it, but that is it. The rest of the Mach 460 system is stock. If ever replace the head unit, I am going to rip out the entire Mach System and replace everything with aftermarket. You are not the only one who has issues with the Mach 460 system when it comes to replacing the head unit. You might also want to ask this question in the sound forum. Good Luck!
My advise is that if u were going to invest in making your system sound better i would get it totally rewired with new speakers and take it to an actual pro. , and the guy at circut city may not be the best choise but thats just me.
I used to sell, build, and install stereo systems in a couple different shops. If you want an upgrade to the stock Mach460 system, you should take it all out and start from scratch. The amp system is all intertwined. Basically, the signal goes from the dash unit, to the amp in the back and then distributed to the speakers throughout the whole car. If you change the head unit, then the whole system fails, since the amp is controlled by the stock unit. And if you decide you want to have a custom box built for your trunk, then you'll have some serious space issues because the amps are mounted underneath the rear dash in the trunk.
Mach 460 Radio Fix The easiest way to interface with a Mach 460 system ( or any factory amplified system if the factory system is working properly) and retain the volume level and bass. Is to use a quality interface like a PAC Mach interface. They basically convert the high level speaker output to the specific low level input signal required by the Mach system. Sometimes they will produce a turn on signal for the amps but normally that is simply the remote turn on provided by the aftermarket head unit. The reason Circuit city did not use it is probably cost they typically run $50-$75 and you have to pay for parts (even with "free" install). It does plug directly into the factory so no labor is required. They like to say rewire it because the labor makes them more money. There is another way to interface but typically the sound is not as good as the factory that is using a bypass plug. Its a standard ford plug behind the radio (no line level change) and then you go to the trunk and use a amplifier bypass plug (you unplug the connector from the amp input and the output and this adaptor connects the two. Making it straight through from the radio to the speakers. The second option is around $25-$40 in parts but does not sound quite as good typically. I do not recommend a full rewire unless you upgrade the speakers or are having a problem with something else. You do spend more money doing it right but trust me it is well worth it and will not lose quality of sound.
Hello All, not sure if I'm doing this right or not, but here goes. I have a 2000 V6 convertible with premium sound (not mach 460), it has a head unit and separate 1 disk cd player. I bought a Mach 460 6 cd changer and the amps and speakers for the mach 460 system, anyone know what wiring-stuff I'll need to convert the thng????? <I realize the mounting of the unit itself will be a little challenging>. Please advise!
The Mach 460 in my 2004 is all stock except for my Alpine CDA-7897 receiver. You can use aftermarket receivers to get rid of the POS factory headunit. The headunit powers the mids/tweets, with the subs/woofers powered by the separate amps. I had the wiring schematics and added male RCA connectors to the signal wires heading to the sub amps. I can now control the sub level and x-over freq. in the receiver. The amps use a standard turn-on signal like aftermarket amps. It F-ing ROCKS! It makes the Mach 460 system sound like a completely different system. The Alpine has Bass Engine Pro that lets me fine tune the output. I run the woofers at <200hz, 24dB/octave and the mids at >200hz, 24dB/octave. One note - DO NOT do this unless you are able to control the levels independently for sub out/main speakers and frequency cut off. A low end receiver will not likely provide the level of control you need. You could always use the capacitor method to filter lower frequencies from the mids. It will not take much power at <200hz to destroy those speakers.
There is your problem...ever hear the phrase "you get what you pay for"? You'd do better taking your car to the local high school auto shop class...
This thread is 5 years old...i don't think they will be back. I'd be surprised if they still owned the car


text: Candy Cigarettes Officially Banned By FDA 6/24/2010 4:48 PM ET Candy cigarettes have officially been banned by the Food and Drug Administration. The ban is a part of the Family Smoking Prevention and Control Act. Officials have been arguing for years to eliminate candy cigarettes because of the likelihood that children would eventually move on to the real thing. A recent poll revealed that 22 percent of current or one-time smokers ate candy cigarettes during their childhood. On the contrary, just 14 percent of non-smokers used the fake cigarettes.Flavored cigarettes were banned a year ago when the original law was put into act. Now all of the fake smokes have been banned.

Sending video or large images is easy with the right tools. Most e-mail providers allow only up to 10 MB, including the encryption of e-mail. Realistcally, 7.5MB maximum size of attachments. Discover a great site for file transfer to work. You can use my sister-site to send files up to 2 GB, .. It's free and you can use your existing e-mail.
In addition, you need to compress a folder with photos of course. The free account can only be up to 20 plants at a time.
If you have a good packer, see ZipGenius. It is completely free and offers all the nice features that offer the other.

First, it depends on the restrictions imposed by your e-mail provider.
I usually charge hundreds of photos or video clips on my Facebook account and access to friends only. Have you all my friends to view images while preserving privacy.
Something in order to create a one-to-one, open a new Facebook account, and just so the other person as a friend. But make sure that all possibilities are limited privacy "only my friends." - February 21, 2010 at 2:22 AM

Donaji & the Magical Poncho
This is the story of a fearless girl and her encounter with the wicked cold wind god
4.31 / 5.00 5,679 ViewsCOREY STUCK IN PURGATORY EPISODE VIII :
an enigmatic encounter with the hermit.
Corey and Virgil need to get across the river Styx. Unfortunatly, the river is shrouded in darkness, and Phlegyas the ferryman refuses to transport them without a lightsource. And since plutus has stolen the lightbulb from Phlegyas's lighthouse, Corey and Virgil descend into plutus's cave to retrieve it.
Meanwhile, Saint Peter is still being chased by the vestibule's wasps. Can he possibly escape them?
This episode includes a track by my band, AUDIOFUNGUS.
I found it very boring.
I've read Dante's work wich is called ''the divine comedy'' and I don't understand why it's called ''Corey stuck in purgatory'' because the styx is in hell...
St Peter suited in joggong clothe's?!
I just found the humor very dull and I was deceived,maybe I expected too much but I though that someone who read such a book would have though of something more funny to parody Dante's Voyage trough hell.
Still,good art.
My name :O
LOL ITS GOT MY NAME INIT I'LL GIVE IT A 10/10 AND 5/5 :) and my name is corey not rory :)
I agree with guy under me....
Needs some work on the voices also... just try to make the jokes a lil better =)
Really good except one part
The art and animation was great, but the voice acting took away form the movie IMO. The voices need work, if you can get more voioce actors or something I think this could def be way better.

So we have 1.125", 1.125"-1.5" tapered and 1.5" fork steerers - am I imagining things or are stems only sized by handlebar diameter (25.4 or 31.8) and length and rise? If so, how do they fit the different steerer tube diameters?
Bike Forum
Stems and steerers...
Posted 5 years ago #
For a 1 1/8th steerer you buy a 1 1/8th stem.
for a 1.5" steerer you buy a 1.5" stem
For a tapered steerer you still buy a 1 1/8th stem as it obviously tapers from 1.5" at the bottom to 1 1/8th at the top.
You then have to choose a model with the correct size handlebar clamp or use a shim.

Dielectric anisotropy and relaxation time of a liquid crystal (LC) system, containing fullerene and methyl red (MR) dye, were studied via impedance spectroscopy technique under a bias voltage. Dye concentration is tried to be 0.1%, 0.5%, and 1% in host nematic liquid crystal coded E7. Dielectric permittivity and dielectric anisotropy values of the samples were investigated between the frequency ranges of 100–10 MHz. It is seen that dielectric anisotropy is strongly affected by doping ratio and this value decreases with increasing dye. Also, relaxation time τ and critical frequency values were calculated depending on voltage of different dye ratios.

By Katie Vloet
When U-M Museum of Art officials needed more information about a sculpture they had acquired, which was made in Cambodia of decommissioned weapons, they asked Clinical Professor of Law Nick Rine for help. Rine and his wife spend much of their time in Cambodia, so they were able to meet with the artist, Ouk Chim Vichet, in person on a recent visit. Their conversation led to a greater understanding of the meaning behind the sculpture, Apsara Warrior.
Watch a video of Prof. Rine at the Museum of Art, talking about Apsara Warrior.
The piece had become a favorite of tour groups, especially schoolchildren, who were drawn to the giant female deity made of detonated AK-47s from Cambodia's 25-year civil war. Docents at the museum previously knew little about the sculpture, until Rine filled in the gaps.
"In traditional Cambodian art, there are figures known as apsaras, which do a kind of dance that is a strenuous and graceful sort of ballet," Rine notes. "This figure is aggressive and is in a somewhat uncharacteristic pose, and she is breaking an automatic rifle. The apsara is going to conquer brutality with beauty and grace."
The piece came about through the Peace Arts Project Cambodia, which was designed to promote nonviolence and young Cambodian artists.

No Emanuel for Chicago
12 comments:
Rahm worked for boutique M&A investment bank Wasserstein Perella for two and a half years after his stint in the Clinton administration but before he was elected to Congress. His 2.5 year career as an investment banker earned him $18 million.
The world of M&A banking is very clubby and it is crawling with big donors to the Democratic Party and Democrat candidates. I'm sure Rahm's Rolodex is filled with the names of Wall Streeters willing to give him an office.
Rahm will be fine.
Here's what the NYT reported about Rahm's short but lucrative investment banking career:
http://dealbook.nytimes.com/2008/12/04/in-banking-top-obama-aide-made-money-and-connections/Discussion of the actual legal issue had my head aching in record time. Apparently, Rahm's position is that, even though he moved to D.C., he never "gave up his residency" in Chicago. WTH? Is "residency" such an elusive concept? Seems to me that if someone moves from City A to City B, he necessarily "gives up his residency" in City A. It's not actually that complicated.
ReplyDeleteI love this ruling for a couple of reasons:
1. It couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.
2. This quote from the text of the ruling
We begin this task by resort to familiar principles of statutory interpretation. For a court interpreting a statute, the primary goal is to ascertain and give effect to the intention of the legislature, and the best indicator of that intent is the statute's language, given its plain and ordinary meaning. Cinkus,228 Ill.2d at 216…
How refreshing to see a judge actually say you must interpret the law as written and understood by its plain language.

Special Thanks to Corporate Video Cinematographer Barry W. in the UK.
If you upload a video to Youtube or Vimeo, what's the average length of time that your video is watched?
Your tendancy might be to answer, "doesn't that depend on the length of my video?"
And you'd be wrong.
Most of the videos uploaded never get past the first 5 seconds.
That's regardless of whether your video is 1 minute long or 2 hours long. Most videos aren't captivating. they just don't bolt the viewer down long enough for them to get your climax, the call to action, the resolution to the build up, or whatever else you spent thousands of dollars to put at the end of the video.
This is why you can have a fancy marketing firm like ours: http://sparkah.com get your video 100,000 views but you only get 100 sales out of the deal. You have a 0.1% conversion rate to
1. sale
2. new user registration
3. new user subscription
4. download of your app
5. or whatever else the goal of your video is
2% Of the people who pressed play on your video ever made it to the end.
2% Of the people who pressed play on your video ever made it to the end. That means 2,000 people got to see your phone number or website address or other call to action if you buried it at the very end. And of the 2,000, if you got 100 to act, you're golden. You've got a real 5% conversion rate.
Now how many conversions would you have if you got 50% of the 100,000 people who watched your video to watch to the end? 5% conversion on 50,000. You'd have 2,500 customers. That's a prettier number than 100.

Just burst a Bartholin's Cyst - Have I done a bad thing??
(42 Posts)Apologies in advance if the detail offends anyone! DIY fanjo 'surgery' under discussion!
OK, so I've had a Bartholin'c Cyst for well over a year. It's been about the size of a very large marble but hasn't caused any pain or discomfort. The GP said just to ignore it but I didn't want a lumpy lopsided fanjo thank you very much.
Anyway, this evening I just decided that I'd had enough of it - wine may have played a part - and having read various articles on the web about surgery, draining and abcesses I took the plunge and popped the damn thing. I used a sterilised needle, made a little hole and squeezed and squeezed. Lots and lots of gunk came out, not pus or blood, looked more like erm old secretions, very sticky and slimy yuk, and the lump has now gone completely. I've washed and cleaned the area with anti-septic but do I need to do anything else? Have I done a bad, bad thing????
don't know, but not sure I could have resisted the urge either. Must be a bit like when you have a big zit on your face that you just HAVE to squeeze!
I would have done the same. I got a giant spot on the area last month and loved squeezing it.
I've also dug a needle into my arm before when i got cat scratch disease and an enormous amount of pus came out.
It will feel lovely in a couple of days
drink more wine.
Not sure? I had one for ages and it seemed to just go? Glad you seem ok though.
Thank you ladies. As you might have guessed I am a dedicated squeezer too. I love nothing more than digging out an ingrowing hair but thought this might be a step too far. My son hid from me during puberty knowing my liking for spot squeezing!
So far so good anyway and I feel so much better that the damn thing seems to have gone. I'll keep a close eye on it over the next few days and am due a smear test in the next couple of weeks so can point it out to the doctor if things don't go well. Hmmm, the GP's attitude just annoyed me. Bet he wouldn't have just ignored a large marble sized lump on his cock!!
Am having more wine thank you Laurie!!
That must have been great! (secret squeezer)
I love squeezing and am so
I would put salt or savlon in the bath for a few days and keep an eye on it.
pmsl <sorry>
yes drink more wine and it will be fantastic.
lmao [secret squeezer too]
perhaps carry on the wine for the next 24-48 hours? medicinally, as an analgesic, of course
I thinky you were right to self operate. It would have driven me crazy..
How is it?
Oh yes you did the correct thing
I love squeezing spots!!
How theraputic!!!
Oh thats what i have [boils kettle whilst looking for needle]
Just make sure you keep an eye on it (so to speak) in case something goes septic....
(both my Bartholins glands had cysts, eventually became abcesses, and had to be operated on.... grim and painful).
Bathe in salty water as well. Really salty water. Apparently it helps draw out all the fluid in the cyst.
(wish I had done that rather than go through all the horrors of abcesses and surgeries!)
Dear ladies, I am so glad I'm not the only one who couldn't leave something like that alone. I must confess - it was soooooo satisfying and I'd do it again in a heartbeat.
It seems to have healed up nicely, no swelling, infection or pain. It's just like it was never there. I suppose the real test will be doing the sex thing with DP but he's working away at the moment and not back to the weekend so it has another day or so to recover.
louii - the only pain was sticking the needle in and that didn't last long. There was no pain whatsoever during the squeezing process. Just make sure everywhere, including your hands, the needle and your bits are super clean.
orangina - sorry to hear about your trauma. That was what I was trying to avoid but I realise that it could have - and possibly still could - come back and bite me.
So far so good anyway and am still self medicating with wine.
Bellawella, sounds so satisfying, well done.
Love the 'bet he wouldnt have ignored a cyst the size of a marble on his cock' comment.
Have a lump on my arm currently that wont come to a head and has no outlet, am now very tempted to sterilise a needle.
There was a similar thread a while back to yours and someone linked to www.popthatzit.com that will either interest or totally horrify you. Look at your perril (sp?)
Hi im new to this site and have really enjoyed reading about other peoples experiences with cysts and bursting them!! (strangely I feel sick whilst reading about pus but secretly love it!) I have quite a large cyst on my head under my hair and am VERY tempted to pop it!!
Any thoughts or advice on this...
LilMiss - yes do pop it but go in the bath and soak your head first so the skin is softer, and draw outwards rather than squeezing inwards (prevents pushing bacteria deeper in and also lowers the amount of damage to the skin).
Bellawella - well good for you for doing it but do keep a close eye on it (that may be hard without a mirror) for signs of infection. Oh and I'll lay off the sex for a week or so. You can get internal bruising from these popping so I'm guessing lancing it is the same and it's quite painful very suddenly if a hard thing hits a soft and bruised thing IYSWIM
You've just reminded me that I used to have one, but somehow went away after being pregnant! I even had a date for surgery, but managed to give the OB/GYN the slip!
Hope it doesn't come back. I think that's essentially what they would have done if you had surgery, although think there's a magic wand they use
I am transfixed.
Monitor the situation.
I had 'marsupialisation' (ie. they popped it in hospital and then stitched the little hole back up). It got infected and was gross. It healed and went away...then came back and has been there ever since. Just keep an eye out. Once the pop, they are prone to infection.

i thought doctors dealt with bartholins.....why do they occur?
i have home drained a ganglion
ROFL ! What is it with this place tonght ! First, fanjo deodorants and now this. PMSL just what I needed after the last couple of days.
I, too, love nothing better than squeezing out an ingrown hair on my lady garden. It must have been so satisfying bella !

Jimmy Russell (Douglas Fairbanks Jr) is a
reporter in love with an ambitious young woman, Mary (Frances Dee). When she
confesses she has debts she can't repay, and he tries to help, he seems to have
arrived too late. A local gangster (Lyle Talbot) got there first…
One of things I absolutely loved is that
there aren't any real heroes here. Jimmy can do the honourable thing or not,
but his choice is based on what's most advantageous to him. The same goes for
Lee Tracy's character – although, if you have seen him once (no matter which film), he
does his usually routine here: drunk, loud, expedite but loyal when pressed.
Mary is really not as nice as she is pretty, and she easily stoops to use her
charms to achieve what she wants out of men. And a special mention to Cecil
Cunningham as Mary's aunt, who clearly never heard of scruples. In fact, the
closest to a nice character the film comes is Ann Dvorak's Sally, who is an
honorary "one of the guys" (and very much in love with Jimmy) but has not much to do (niceness doesn't pay?)...
The plotting is solid, with a few minor twists in the tale which really grabbed my attention, particularly one great scene involving a newspaper left behind which would have made Hitchcock proud. And (spoiler alert), if you take the comedy and the innuendos, the film covers some real menace: Talbot's character wants Mary and will stop at nothing to get her (he starts with blackmail...).
I am surprised that this film is not better
known. Wellman, is clearly in shape here and is celebrated enough to have had several
of his films of the period released (Warner's Forbidden Hollywood volume 3 includes
only films of his).
