I was just sitting at my desk, about to go to bed, when unprompted, I receive a text message with one of these google verification codes. That means that someone has entered my user-name and password into the google login box!
Of course, I immediately opened up my account page and set a new password... and sure enough, my "Account activity" info says:
Last sign-in countriesI live in Australia, so someone in the Netherlands has gotten my password!
Australia, Netherlands
It was a 12 character password, made up of dictionary words and numbers, so it's guessable, but not easily.
I try not to use the same log-in details on different services usually... but my StarCraft 2 login details were this email address and this password, and (encrypted) SC2 user-data was stolen recently. When that hack occurred, I did change my SC2 password, but I didn't change my google password... so I guess it's possible that someone decoded the SC2 database and recovered my email/password from it, and tried to use them to log in to google, which would've worked...
Besides making sure that I don't have any other services where I use that password (and that email as the username), what else should I be doing? Have there been any other high-profile game database hacks recently that I could point the finger at? Anyone have any recommendations for good malware scanners that I should run to be sure my own PC isn't to blame?

TheDailyBeast.com: Failed Celebrity Endorsements
1 of 9
Skip to Main Content | Skip to Categories | Skip to Search
| Celebrities and brand names have long had a cozy, mutually beneficial relationship, with designers rushing to snag seals of approval from stars. But sometimes famous products and personalities are not so eager to have their names associated with certain personalities. From Abercrombie and Fitch's rejection of The Situation to Cristal Champagne's diss of Jay-Z, see endorsements that didn't fly.

| With celebrity often come expensive gifts and swanky brand endorsements, but in the case of the cast of "Jersey Shore," Abercrombie and Fitch is begging—nearly pleading—that they stop wearing its line. The apparel retailer is offering Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, a cast member famous for excessive partying, drinking, and promiscuity, a "substantial payment" to wear just about anything else. "We are deeply concerned that Mr. Sorrentino's association with our brand could cause significant damage to our image," an A and F spokesman said in a statement. "We understand that the show is for entertainment purposes, but believe this association is contrary to the aspirational nature of our brand, and may be distressing to many of our fans."

| Spray-tanned, big-haired Snooki, another "Jersey Shore" cast member, was also targeted in a bit of a scandal involving designer purses. While Snooki may be the cast's most entertaining breakout star, given her arrest and shocking slug to the face by an ex–gym teacher, luxury lines want nothing to do with her. Designer-purse brands are going so far as to stock the reality star with—not their own merchandise, but competitor brands. This aggressive tactic was meant, in essence, to set the record straight: Snooki is not synonymous with style.

| Playmate Kendra Wilkinson expressed her love affair with Olive Garden, an Italian restaurant chain famous for its tagline, "When you're here, you're family." In 2008, Wilkinson said Olive Garden was better than any restaurant in Italy, but her free publicity was not exactly welcomed. A former Playboy cover model, Wilkinson starred in the reality show "The Girls Next Door" as one of Hugh Hefner's three live-in girlfriends, making her the antithesis of traditional "family values." Executives at Olive Garden were uneasy about discussing the matter, calling it a "complicated issue for the brand." Nevertheless, Wilkinson stayed true to form when she instigated a contest for the hottest waitresses of Olive Garden, awarding a nude Playboy spread to the winner.

| While running for the presidency in 2008, Barack Obama condemned a song released by the rapper Ludacris that praised the candidate and bashed competitor Hillary Clinton as "irrelevant." In the lyrics of "Politics as Usual," Ludacris says Republican candidate John McCain doesn't belong in "any chair unless he's paralyzed." Obama called the lyrics "outrageously offensive," despite his otherwise positive relationship with the hip-hop artist: "While Ludacris is a talented individual, he should be ashamed of these lyrics," an Obama campaign spokesman told the AP.

| Which is worse—being called "irrelevant" by an influential rap star or receiving an endorsement from a suspected killer and convicted felon? After Hillary Clinton's public slam by Ludacris, she received an unsolicited endorsement from O. J. Simpson during her 2008 presidential bid. Did it hurt her campaign? Well, it probably didn't help. Nevertheless, Simpson and the Clintons go way back. The former football great's acquittal in the most famous case of "getting away with murder" aired the same night as President Bill Clinton's 1996 State of the Union address.

|In perhaps one of the most awe-inspiring questions ever posed in all of MTV history, pop star Jessica Simpson asked, "Is this chicken, what I have, or is this fish?" referring to Chicken of the Sea tuna. The mystifying remark inspired a series of parodies and criticism, causing the canned-fish distributor to settle the matter once and for all in 2003. On a personalized tour of the factory in San Diego, the company VP explained the origins of the brand to Simpson, to which she responded: "I will be a consumer forever."

| Talk-show host and cookbook author Rachael Ray was accused of being a terrorist sympathizer when she sported a scarf in a 2007 Dunkin' Donuts ad similar to one popularized by the late Palestine Liberation Organization chairman Yasir Arafat. Fox News commentator Michelle Malkin pushed for a boycott of the ad, calling the scarf an accessory of "Muslim terrorists." The Dunkin' Donuts management complied with the request and took down the video: "Absolutely no symbolism was intended," the senior VP of communications said in a statement. "However, as of this past weekend, we are no longer using the online ad because the possibility of misperception detracted from its original intention to promote our iced coffee."

I can tell you this from my experience,todays chessy is not the chessy we had back in the late 60`s and early 70`s.They seem to be much softer now.
Don`t get many goldens but the goldens I`ve had have been a dream to work with.
Let me say this about the labs,now we are talkin about labs that hunt nov. dec. jan. in ice and very cold water in the north.We had very little negative feedback from clients in the old days about labs no-going in cold water.I get quite a few nowadays.
One of my jobs as a kid was introducing pups to water,it involved 2 or three pups and a puppy dummie walkin back to grandma`s pond and wading in letting them follow in running water then pitch the dummy,all would swim and two days of this that was water intro.Nowadays I can spend a week or two before I get the same results.
I realize,I`m not getting the cream of the crop to work with but alot in the old days weren`t either.
When a breed gets popular ,people see a way to make money and spit pups out not paying attention to ability around water,trainability (biddable) and a host of others and I think people need to pay closer attention NOWADAYS in their purchase.
You mentioned "holding a grudge"in dogs ,my experience has been the chessy holds that honor!!!!
I`ll tell you a breed that I thught very highly of from a gundog standpoint is the Flatcoat.Just don`t see them anymore.
Back in the early 80`s I was approached by Vern Vogel (now deceased) to bring his showdog Flatcoats to senior or even MH level .HisKennel name was Bolingbroke Kennels.I might of had 6 or more at one time and there was a ton of natural ability in those dogs.Nuff rambling on my part...Jim

The Syrian crisis has entered its most dangerous stage, says this International Crisis Group policy brief. The international community and Syrian opposition have largely been ignoring issues that must be addressed, including ties between Syria and Lebanon and the militarization of the protest movement.
The Syrian crisis may or may not have entered its final phase, but it undoubtedly has entered its most dangerous one to date. The current stage is defined by an explosive mix of heightened strategic stakes tying into a regional and wider international competition on the one hand and emotionally charged attitudes, communal polarisation and political wishful thinking on the other. As dynamics in both Syria and the broader international arena turn squarely against the regime, reactions are ranging from hysterical defiance on the part of its supporters, optimism among protesters that a bloody stalemate finally might end and fears of sectarian retribution or even civil war shared by many, through to triumphalism among those who view the crisis as an historic opportunity to decisively tilt the regional balance of power.
Yet, almost entirely missing is a sober assessment of the challenges provoked by these shifts and the very real risk that they could derail or even foreclose the possibility of a successful transition. In particular, five issues likely to shape events have been absent from the public debate.

On the whole I agree with Terrie, who's done right by the breed for a long time. I'm biased in thinking, inevitably, that AKC recognition is great for the Boykin if only in offering eligibility in the best retrieving venue (my opinion). But that's not the only benefit. Nor was it the intent of the splinter group that became the official parent club upstaging the Boykin Spaniel Society. However, there's more vigilance and focus now on health issues in the breed by dint of AKC status - and I hope Terrie agrees that Boykins because of it are bred better now than ever.
I'm pro-Boykin Spaniel Society and it's been my registry from the start, as I've not started a pup since the breed went AKC. (The next one will be AKC and who knows? maybe their eligibility will be not just for hunt tests but field trials too.) But it's worth noting that Boykins only got a real breed rescue organization about a decade ago through volunteers' initiative, not from any BSS motivation; until then Boykins sort of struck me, sadly, as the disposable gundog with almost as many discards as the pointer people jettison when their dogs don't "turn out."
I'm not slagging on the BSS, but my perception is Boykins have gotten "healthier" since they went AKC (in part by Boykin puppies now commanding higher prices and breeders aware that without health clearances they won't get those kinds of prices for their pups). And that's a good thing in the end. I really don't see Boykins as a showdog split, even though there is great disparity in appearance (within the same litter, as Terrie noted). The great majority of them are workers even if it's only at bringing back a tennis ball thrown by their 8-9 year old youngster, and I see them following the model of their forebears, the Chessie, into the showring as far secondary to what they do afield. Or tertiary behind what they do afield and what they do on the arm of a sofa as little brown serotonin dispensers - not a more companionable housedog out there.
Whats hurting the breed right now is people are finding out what really good all around dogs they are. The largest breeder in the nation doesn't have a single dog at the Boykin Spaniel National Field Trial this weekend. They breeds for $$$$$ only. Boykins and two or three other breeds at the same time.
That is my biggest fear; that people are finding out what great dogs they can be and now the folks are coming out to jump on the latest bandwagon. I experienced this first-hand when someone had two dog bought over the internet and then bred them at two years of age and with no health testing, no proven hunting ability. His telling comment was that the dogs could be sold at a higher price than the Labs. I passed on that guy and several others when I searched for a dog.
I bought my two from a breeder that has been in it for many years, done health testing and hunt tests. His dogs are top ranked titled producers in the HRC and has records of health checks. I truely bought my first dog; just for a pheasant dog; but he is such a great dog I had to get another. We have done AKC hunt tests, HRC hunt tests and the Boykin upland tests. Both of mine are active but are very willingly set at my feet while I chill out at home.
My older dog is great to have at childrens parties were he delights the kids doing all sorts of tricks for them. When our HRC club had a kids camp I lent him out to a young man to run in the hunt test set up and obedience activites. My younger dog is hopefully my introduction to waterfowl hunting.
My advice to buyers is do your homework, excepect to wait a bit for your pup and when you get that adorable creature, do obedience with and sociallize him or her. They are only small in size not in heart!
What we have done for ourselves alone dies with us; what we have done for others and the world remains and is immortal. Abraham Lincoln

Thank you judges who score Style, you are preserving Desire!
The farm bill is huge pork. I grew up on a small farm with my Dad working a full time job and mom part time. Since moving to ND, I have come to have a bad taste in my mouth regarding farmers and ranchers. I would have never have believed it prior to moving here.
The political clout held by so few is amazing to me. The Farm Bureau and Ranchers Assoc. has huge control over our 2 senators and gov. ND has two very senior senators in Dorgan and Conrad.
I am sure most of you are somewhat familiar with Devils Lake in ND. It increased tremendously in size in the late 90's. Huge FEMA dollars were spent relocating people as the lake swallowed up their property. Main roads were moved and rebuilt. One little town was basically taken from the map.
This whole thing was caused by farmers draining every slough from Devils Lake north to Canada. The farmers all sat on the water boards that allowed draining. Why this wasn't controlled by at the State level by professionals is disgusting.
The ranchers and the management of the National Grasslands is just as bad. They created a depredation hunt for elk around Teddy Rosevelt National Park. Except most of the tags are bulls. Gratis landowner tags are most of the tags. Not exactly based on biology, more creating a private trophy bull hunt for a group of 50 landowners.
Most of you from larger states would be amazed at the political power welded by such a small group. I know I was.
When I grew up there was a commodities program, most of the money went to the producer, families could sign up for relief. On distribution day, biweekly from memory, the family could go to the distribution center & receive a peck of potatoes, sack of prunes, oatmeal, flour, & other commodities. Rarely anything canned but occasionally some fresh suitable for canning. My grandparents raised me until I was 12. We were the only family in the county, not on the public payroll, not on relief. We could have gotten it, my grandparents were too proud to accept something they did not need. Many did, even in those days.
Contrast that to today, where you can be a loser, & still shop with the winners, in actuality buying many things the thrifty avoid. There is no penalty for being a loser. We also had relief, where someone who accepted same would have their name in the paper. The only time it would get questioned was when someone was drawing it undeservedly. Every one lives life with the potential of being down on their luck at one time or another.Meant to help the small farmer, just not many campaign donations from people like that. ewg.org has a website where you can go by state & check out those at the trough & the amount.Originally Posted by bbAmazing what delivering a bloc of votes, a weekend hunting on a private ranch or farm, some favorable press releases & a little bit of lobbying will do. Maybe even an occasional donation of some sort.Originally Posted by bb
But then again, look at the enormous clout of SEIU, NEA, the NDEA & many other bloc's of votes. It's just getting more than you deserve at the expense of someone else. The good old American way.Potholes Drainage Act of sometime in the mid 1930's, has it ever been repealed? To get rid of those pesky water holding structures created by the Ice Age. My Grandpa bought a 1/4 section to be able to drain a low spot on one of his properties, needed a right of way for a ditch.Originally Posted by bbPower wielded by small influential groups is not new to our society, nor is the inability to resist the temptation of the trappings of power. If you pay attention during your journey through life you will recognize many abuses. & as an attorney I know well says "There is rarely justice in the justice system."Originally Posted by bb
Many of the citizens of the fair city we reside in hate the deer & elk, we consider them treasures. They were here long before we came on the scene, so we believe they have some rights.

Dear Diary, it has been long since I wrote something, but you know... Life, stuff and everything. No hard feelings, right? OK, good! I've had some terrible months and some good months. And there has been nothing in between. April was a bad one, I had too much to do but no time to do it. School and work occupied most of time. May was good. We finished our strategy game Gecco. June good as well. I met a girl from Italy AND a girl from Gothenburg. Confused but happy. July bad, the girl from Italy went home, to Italy, and I lost connection with Gothenburg girl. August good. I and Kalle finished our Shakespeare Programming Language.
During the winter and spring I had a course called Program Development Project (translated roughly). We were to create a general strategy game which would be used by the decision support group at Nada. I don't know exactly for what they were going to use it, but the Swedish defence research department (FOI) were also interested. We had some great ideas, but had a hard time coding the thing, and although we put more effort into our project than many other groups, and even won the project competition, it still felt a bit unstable and unfinished when we left it. Nada hired my friend Kalle (who was also in the project group) to work on it during the summer though and FOI is also working on it now so it is probably going to be used for real. The one best thing about the whole project though, was that we convinced them to have it licensed under GPL. We had received some concern from FOI, but once we explained the benefits to having it open with GPL, they were ok with it. As we retain the copyrights we told them that we could change the license for them if it was absolutely necessary, but they accepted GPL. I was really surprised at first, because when we visited them for a grand tour of their equipment on which the thing eventually would run on, everything was very hush hush secret secret. As the project changed from a student project to a research project it now has a new official homepage
The Shakespeare Programming Language
It's finally finished. I and Kalle have spent way too much time on this assignment but it was worth it. The meaning of the exercise was to show that we could handle both syntactical and lexical analysis of some sort. Make a pretty printer syntax highlighting for Java code or similiar. We decided to make our own language instead, after having seen some very funny esoteric languages out there. (Chef, Sorted, etc.)
After several months we finally have an implementation of the language. The main purpose of it is to have its source code resemble a Shakespeare play. Not a real play, but more how it's built. Character declaration at the top, acts, scenes, people entering and exiting, and saying stuff to other people. We also added some stacks to have infinite memory space, which makes it Turing complete, although we haven't made real proof yet. Although Hello World is quite big, it was very easy using the stacks to write a program which reads from stdin and outputs it backwards on stdout.
I am going to study a year at Karlsruhe University in Germany. I am leaving Sweden the last week of September and I am very excited but also very nervous. I still haven't found any place to stay. I received an e-mail from a guy that said he wanted to rent me a room but I haven't heard from him in one week so perhaps he has bailed out. I guess there is no chance that someone reading this, is from Karlsruhe, who can help me with accomodation. If there are, you can have a Swedish computer geek as a room mate. What about that!? :)

Cool WikiFeature gary. This will give all those Wiki diaries out there a nicer interface :)
I haven't used my Amiga in ages. Is this goodbye? Yes, probably. But I'll buy the AmigaDE and try it out some time.
After using it for some months, I've become addicted to Ion. It's a window manager who takes care of the windows for you. It clashes with some programs because of different views of concept, but still, it's not hard to use for example Gimp, even though it follows the manymanymany small windows everywhere shadowing each other concept
Wow, it's mirwin length on this one :)

Phillips to speak on wealth and democracy, Dec. 11
Posted December 8, 2003; 10:23 a.m.
and political commentator Kevin Phillips will deliver a lecture on "Wealth and Democracy in America" at 4:30 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 11, in Dodds Auditorium, Robertson Hall.
In 1968, Phillips was the chief political and elections analyst for the Republican presidential campaign, and served as special assistant to the U.S. Attorney General for 13 months. After publication of his landmark 1969 book, "The Emerging Republican Majority," he resigned to become a newspaper and later broadcast commentator, and served as editor-publisher of the American Political Report from 1971 until 1998. From 1984 to 1996, he was an elections commentator for CBS Television News.
Phillips has written 11 books, including "The Politics of Rich and Poor" and "Wealth and Democracy." His eighth book, "The Cousins' Wars: Religion, Politics and the Triumph of Anglo-America," was a finalist for the 1999 Pulitzer Prize in history. His two most recent books are "William McKinley" in the American presidents series edited by Arthur Schlesinger and "American Dynasty: Aristocracy, Fortune and the Politics of Deceit Under the House of Bush."
Since 1997, Phillips has lived in Connecticut, where he does most of his writing, now with an increasingly historical focus. He is a periodic contributor to National Public Radio and The Los Angeles Times, and an occasional contributor to Time and Harper's.
The public is invited to attend the event, including a reception with Phillips in the Shultz Dining Room following the lecture. The event is sponsored by the University Center for Human Values, the Program in Ethics and Public Affairs, the Program in Law and Public Affairs, the Center for the Study of Democratic Politics and the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions.

Where Do We Draw the Line on Netbook Size?
- 1 Comment
Not too long ago, many of the first netbooks had seven, eight, and nine inch screens, but nowadays, the general trend for the screen size of a netbook averages around ten inches.
Some consumers are still not satisfied though. They think that netbooks are still rather small and cramped and would prefer them to be larger. Will netbooks have larger screens – maybe eleven or twelve inch ones – in the future?
What do we really prize about netbooks? Maybe their price? Maybe their portability? What would happen if the average netbook got larger? Prices may rise. There's certainly no doubt that netbooks would then be less portable, and the line between netbooks and notebooks would be blurred even more.
If netbooks got more expensive, they'd be encroaching into the price range of notebooks. Heck, some already are. Would you personally buy a netbook if it were a slightly better performing machine but also had a higher price tag? What if it were a little bit heavier?
We'd like to hear what you think if netbook manufacturers started to make larger netbooks. Feel free to send any comments, concerns, or questions you have our way.

Burning fossil fuels such as coal and oil sends huge amounts of polluting greenhouse gases into the air. Many industrial countries have promised to limit the amount of greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide (CO[subscript 2]) they produce each year. But in May 2011, Britain became the first nation in the world to take legal steps to cut greenhouse gas emissions beyond 2020.
Chris Huhne, Britain's Energy Secretary, set a "carbon budget." He pledged that the United Kingdom (U.K.) would cut carbon emissions in half by 2027, compared to what they were in 1990. And he promised that by 2050, emissions would be down by at least 80%.
Such bold steps would change the way Britain produces energy. An industrial country has never before taken such serious steps to develop a low-carbon economy. The new rules put the U.K. on a very tough course. It is not known what sacrifices, if any, will be needed to make the changes.
The agreement will certainly be good for the environment. British officials hope it will also boost the economy. It seems likely that companies specializing in wind turbines will build in the U.K. Renewable energy, or power that comes from such sources as wind, could bring big business to Britain.
The bad news might be the price of electricity, which will likely rise. But, says British Prime Minister David Cameron, it will be worth the cost. "The transition to a low-carbon economy is necessary, real and global," says Cameron. "By stepping up, showing leadership and competing with the world, the U.K. can prove that there need not be a tension between green and growth."

It looks like this is enough to qualify him for the death penalty. I guess the jury is getting a week off before they decide his fate.
It looks like this is enough to qualify him for the death penalty. I guess the jury is getting a week off before they decide his fate.

Our local paper has been giving some coverage (I live about 60-90 minutes north of Philadelphia). They mentioned that the place was filthy, smelled, and even had some cats wondering around. They also mentioned that he was making almost $2 million a year from his "practice", and they found $250,000 in cash at his home. Wanna bet that he was making more than $2 million a year, and the cash was never taxed?
For the death of the woman, due to the overdose of anesthesia, he was only found guilty of manslaughter.
He's 72 years old ... wanna bet he dies a natural death before his appeals are over?
This man would have to be a psychopath to do this for so many years.

....and to think the Jury was deadlocked more than once and had to keep being sent back. Outrageous!
At the slam of the gavel, they should have taken him to the nearest back alley exit, told him to kneel and put a .22 in his skull. Game over!... then call his family and tell them to come pick him up.

If it's not PC, the drive by media doesn't report...
In all seriousness, I mean that. In my opinion, when folks do this kind of wrong,(Empirically proven) they need to be put down like the feral humans they are. No need to carry on with all sorts of torture methods and all that jazz. Just a simple Pop, slump and a phone call to the family to come get him.
The media will not give a great deal of coverage to the verdict because liberals are only interested in the death penalty when it comes to unborn babies.

With a new decade comes dubious planning for self-betterment and the optimistic promise of a fresh start. However, even the best of intentions have the potential to go awry, and seemingly innocuous continuing-education courses are no exception.
Here at the Portland Phoenix, we realize that continuing your education with classes in anything from self-help to knitting to karate can be a problem as well as a solution. If you're into crafting, it's easy to get carried away, as anyone with a nana surely knows. Arts also can be a recipe for disaster because, let's face it, if you're "finding yourself" through the obscure, ancient Japanese tie-dyeing art of shibori, maybe there's some kind of disconnect between you and the world around you.
Should you encounter any problems on your quest to build an arsenal of mostly useless skills, consider correcting them with follow-up courses. You'll be ready to confront your awkward addictions in no time.
PROBLEM: Hoping to grow more savvy in cyberspace and land a better position in the workplace, you sign up for a course in social networking. You quickly learn how to market yourself online, clean up your Facebook profile, and get to the bottom of what this "Twitter" thing is all about. But before you know it, you're addicted to Farmville, Mafia Wars, and online porn. Nothing you're currently involved in can be described as either "social" or "networking." Oops.
SOLUTION: Return to the tried-and-true basics by taking a course in traditional social skills and networking (remember those?). Sometimes developing your work relationships over lunch or getting drunk with co-workers can get you farther in the office than any LinkedIn profile ever could — especially if you work in the media. Cheers!
PROBLEM: You're enjoying your "Extreme Basketweaving 101" course a lot — maybe too much. Your friends and family admired your homemade gifts at first, but now you couldn't pay them to accept your over-the-top wicker creations, no matter how much your latest work resembles a stegosaurus. You don't want to stop your soothing new hobby, but you need to prevent your apartment from deteriorating into a Hoarders-like hell.
SOLUTION: Follow up your basket-making course with one in entrepreneurship to learn how to make your pre-historic-themed wicker baskets into the next disposable fad with the youngsters. Just think: with a little elbow grease and strategic placement, your creations could be planted on the arms of Disney starlets and sold in Claire's stores across the country. If you're afraid your ambition could once again get the best of you, ignore your dreams of swimming pools full of money and go with a safer bet. Take a class in organizational skills, which will allow you to make the most of your one-bedroom space while you figure out what to do with all those dinosaur baskets.
PROBLEM: Lonely and intrigued by the idea of taking an academic approach to getting' laid, you join a class at your local adult-education center on "The Art of Flirting." It's taught by a Ladies Man wannabe with a smooth voice and a bottomless cache of clichés. Needless to say, your next visit to the neighborhood bar begins with a line about "space pants" and ends with a flirtini thrown in your face. It might be time to get a cat.

As things unravel for a struggling single mother in Las Vegas, she must decide what she's willing to give up to get by.
Think of Me (Bryan Wizemann | USA | 103 min.)
You're a single mother, sensitive to your child's concerns, but you're struggling to stay afloat in working class Las Vegas. You've got a menial office job, but the income only covers the necessities. As problems arise—the car won't start, your daughter's shoes are falling apart—you've got to find a way to hustle up some more cash. Is it wrong to leave your kid at home alone at night to take a second job? Is it wrong to bring a man you met in a strip club home, with the hope that he might help? You're not a bad parent, but sometimes the choices you have to make could raise red flags for concerned co-workers, cynical teachers, leery police officers. When someone presents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to provide a better life for your daughter (and an easier life for you), can you take that chance?
Rooftop alum Bryan Wizemann's award-winning realist drama presents a powerful moral dilemma for contemporary America. As the economy leaves millions of Americans without a safety net, and the gap between the wealthy and the working class continues to grow, Think of Me creates an intimate and compelling modern parable based on the toil of a woman named Angela, played exquisitely by Lauren Ambrose (Six Feet Under; Sleepwalk with Me). In her Independent Spirit Award nominated portrayal, Ambrose inhabits the character with nuance and ferocity. Alternately defiant and pensive, nervous and controlling, every gesture she makes and every line she delivers are filled with a complex pathos that is believable and fascinating. Wizemann's detailed storytelling—the intricate touches of set design and cinematography—combined with strong supporting performances by Dylan Baker (Happiness), Penelope Ann Miller (The Artist) and newcomer Audrey Scott (as the daughter), all combine to make Think of Me a uniquely honest and heart-wrenching film that America needs to see.

Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is surgery to remove the inside part of the prostate gland in order to treat an enlarged prostate.
Related topics include:
TURP; Prostate resection - transurethral
The surgery takes about 1 hour.
You will be given medicine before surgery so you don't feel pain. You may get one of the following:
The surgeon will insert a scope through the tube that carries urine from your bladder out of the penis. This tube is called the urethra. A special cutting tool is placed through the scope. It is used to remove the inside part of your prostate gland using electricity.
Your doctor may recommend this surgery if you have benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The prostate gland often grows larger as men get older. The larger prostate play causes problems with urinating. Removing part of the prostate gland can often make these symptoms better.
Prostate removal may be recommended if you have:
Before you have surgery, your doctor will suggest you make changes in how you eat or drink. You may also be asked to try taking medicine. Your prostate may need to be removed if these steps do not help. TURP is one of the most common type of prostate surgery. Other procedures are also available.
Your doctor will consider the following when deciding on the type of surgery:
Risks for any surgery are:
Additional risks are:
You will have many visits with your doctor and tests before your surgery. Your visit will include:
If you are a smoker, you should stop several weeks before the surgery. Your doctor or nurse can give you tips on how to do this.
Always tell your doctor or nurse what drugs, vitamins, and other supplements you are taking, even ones you bought without a prescription.
During the weeks before your surgery:
On the day of your surgery:
You will stay in the hospital for 1 to 3 days.
After surgery, you will have a small tube, called a Foley catheter, in your bladder to remove urine. The urine will look bloody at first. The blood goes away within a few days in most cases. Blood can also seep around the catheter. A special solution may be used to flush out the catheter and keep it from getting clogged with blood. The catheter will be removed within 1 to 3 days for most people
You will be able to go back to eating a normal diet right away.
You will need to stay in bed until the next morning. You will be asked to move around as much as possible after that point.
Your health care team will:
Tell you how to care for yourself after your procedure.
You may need to wear tight stockings and use a breathing device to keep your lungs clear.
You may be given medication to relieve bladder spasms.
TURP relieves symptoms of an enlarged prostate most of the time. You may have burning with urination, blood in your urine, urinate often, and need to urgently urinate.

This mysterious cave located east of Damascus Gate in the Old City of Jerusalem goes back about 1,000 feet under the northern Old City wall, and about 2,000 years in history. Make that 2,600 years, if you include the legend that gave it its name. It is said that Zedekiah, Jerusalem's last biblical king, a Babylonian puppet deposed of during the final siege on the city, attempted to flee Jerusalem to Jericho through this cave.
He was captured and brought before the Babylonian King Nebuchadnezzar, where his sons were murdered in front of him and his eyes were put out (2 Kings 25:1-6).
In keeping with this tragic story, at the back of the cave is a tiny spring, known as "Zedekiah's tears." That is were you discover the cave has no exit; archaeologists tell us that in fact it was a quarry from which Herod the Great hewed stone to build the Temple.
The cave's dramatic lighting reveals signs of the quarrying. In 1868, the first meeting of Freemasons in Ottoman Palestine was held by candlelight in Zedekiah's Cave. Its impressive dimensions have bestowed another traditional name, meaningful to Masons: "King Solomon's Quarries."
The cave is closed on Fridays and Saturdays.

OXFORD – For some, the Ole Miss-Mississippi State football rivalry is a year-long event.
That isn't the case for Hugh Freeze, who is about to participate in the game as the Rebels' head coach for the first time.
At his weekly news conference Monday, Freeze said he did not mention Mississippi State to his players until Sunday when the Rebels had returned from Baton Rouge after an emotional 41-35 loss to then-No. 8 LSU.
"I have family members on the other side," Freeze said. "We have great respect for them, and we want to beat them as badly as they want to beat us. I understand the impact it has on our program and the people of the state."
Along those lines Freeze wants to remove as many distractions as possible – including this newspaper and others – for players who suddenly have more time on their hands during the Thanksgiving holiday break.
Before Freeze took the podium Monday, Kyle Campbell, the school's assistant athletics director for media and public relations, announced that all practices would be closed and that there would be no player interviews.
Before Freeze left, a compromise was reached, and selected players will be made available this week, he said.
Freeze this season has maintained one of the more open media policies of SEC schools. Media can view the first four periods of practice, and most players are available by request at the Monday press conference or after practice.
Assistant coaches are also available during interview times, which is not the case at all schools.
Freeze said he considered the media ban because he didn't want his players to say something to stoke the rivalry flames or to say something with good intentions that could be received the wrong way.
When he was hired as Ole Miss coach last December, Freeze, a native of Independence, had this to say regarding the MSU series at his introduction press conference: "It is not big, it is paramount. I have great respect of the job he (Dan Mullen) has done there. I take nothing away from that job, but being raised here I have a quite good understanding of what that game means.
"The administration does not have to tell me that. I get it. It is about us regaining the momentum."
Almost a year later, he coaches a team that many believe has over-achieved but must still win one game to qualify for postseason.
"I can't wait for Saturday," Freeze said. "I'm trying not to be anxious, but it's difficult to fight it. There's a lot riding on this game."

The unstated implication (imo) was that, by this guy saying "I made the whole thing up", the WMD's were never there.
By analogy, if one has demonstrated a proven past history of spousal abuse, a current allegation is likely to be taken much more seriously, even if/when the current one turns out to be fabricated for whatever reason.
In addition, one who has demonstrated WMD use on his own country and a neighboring one would logically be considered a major threat to use them again.
The emperor has been shown to be naked underneath now, but he had clothes (WMD's) at one time. RK & I merely pointed that out. The resistance to the inspections made it all the more likely that they were stashed away in a closet somewhere.
That this guy thinks he is a hero and an example to his sons by being a good liar is indeed a sad comment.

Just so you know its not just me making up numbers, others also came up with these numbers. I'm sure the source will be attacked, and I don't defend it...just showing there is a wide range of estimates, that encompass the numbers I put up.
Edit: I hope we can agree at least that it was a GIAGANTIC waste of our treasury and a tragic loss of American lives, all based on lies and pi$$ poor planning even once the decision was made.

Your constant bashing of Bush, even in a backassward way as this view of the destruction of the Hussein regime, is as typical un-American as burning the flag.
Has it ever occurred to your airheaded thinking of what we might be facing at this time, were there a Saddam Hussein to be dealt with along with all the rest of the middle east antagonists?
The lack of WMD's is a non sequitur in the big picture of the Iraq war...it only is fodder for the small minds that just can't imagine how all their leadership was duped into that belief, and I don't mean the Bush folks.
How often do you need to be reminded of the entire liberal establishment that was absolutely positive those WMDs existed, along with the majority of the UN, not to mention the majority of the Kurd nation that lost millions already to that madman's WMDs.
Just for S & G's, try donning your military outfit as a 'uniform', rather than a 'costume', and attempt to take a little pride in your nation, rather than putting it down every chance you can. I realize you are just following your President's lead, but realize there is an entire movement of TEA Partiers that feel we don't need to apologize for what this nation stands for, and we are getting pissed at all you liberal/socialists that continue to put up with this POTUS that keeps bowing to our enemies, and ignoring our friends. His sham oligarchy is going down. Time to choose sides.
When the one you love becomes a memory, that memory becomes a treasure.
I cited your source even before you did.
The Washington post's source was including the financial crisis and housing collapse. They are really stretching.
You can spin this anyway you would like but it is real hard to get to 3 trillion.
When I come to you for a surgical procedure and ask what the cost is, does your price include my transportation to your office, the fact that I may or may not be out of work for a couple of weeks, the future rise in my health care premiums, or the possibility that I may contract MRSA and all medical expenses involved in that.
That is exactly what your source is trying to do- take into the account all future costs that may or may not exist as well as every economic calamity in the past 8 years.
I will say it again. EXAGGERATION!

Hmmmm. More personal attacks. On my wearing of the uniform as well.
Really, I'd prefer a simple "thank you", rather than the insults.
And if you think I would do anything akin to burning the US flag, just try doing it in front of me and see what happens!
BTW, I will point out things when I think they are bad for this country. You have NOT heard me ever refer to Bush as "Dumbya" or other derogatory names. YOUR side constantly refers to Obama as "obumma" "bumface" "obongo" etc....
THAT type of disgracing of the President is more aking to descecrating a symbol of this nation (ie flag burning) that stating one's opposition to policy. You just can't handle it when your man's flaws are pointed out, and thus resort to personal attacks upon people, their profession, and even stoop so low as to attack a fellow veteran's service! That's pretty sad, Bill.

Accommodation summary
|Berliner Straße, 63065 Offenbach am Main, Germany
|Property type
|Property ID
Loosely marked off from the spacious working/living area you'll find the sleeping area. It's divided by cloth/fabric and adjacent to an outside miniature garden on the smaller balcony, equipped with tatami mats and an original Japanese futon sleeping place. Back-friendly, ground-level bedroom - starting the next day rested and refreshed! This is true not only for our Japanese guests.
The rest of the flooring in the apartment is made of hardwood (kitchen and bath tiled), the kitchen - equipped with hot plates, stove, fridge, kettle, rice cooker, oven toaster and coffee maker - offers access to the large roof balcony, with planting pots of grasses and bamboo, and the opportunity of dining with views to the green river side of Offenbach. This balcony is not private - other tenants of the house can access the roof as well - though this apartment has direct access to the balcony. There are doors leading to the staircase but it's rather seldom that other people pass through - it leads you to the roof. The second smaller balcony is totally private with a view into the city itself.
The spacious living / work area, separated by flexible room divider, is furnished with hand-selected single items still scattered loosely (dining / work area with chairs, cupboard/cabinet with drawers, radio / CD player, desk lamp); Guest bed on request; flat Internet Access / washing machine usage: on request.
Towels and fresh bed-linen is all inclusive of course.
The apartment for 1-2 persons is part of an art project in the German-Japanese Cultural Exchange: In collaboration with students from various disciplines there are currently five apartments in the making, all of them representing different authentic and genuine Japanese living styles. The special feature of the concept is that this is not a calculated cool design, but an authentic and cozy atmosphere is desired, in which Japanese and Western style elements, tradition and modernity combine casually.
Shops and plenty of restaurants are very close - in two minutes you are right in the middle of the pedestrian area of Offenbach with all the shops. Also you're only five minutes walking distance from the Main river, which invites for jogging, biking and walking.
Grocery shopping until midnight (a three minutes walk to the supermarket); late shopping kiosk in the station until 2 am. Easy train connection to Frankfurt / Exhibition (messe frankfurt); travel time to Ffm-Hauptwache: 12-15 minutes/ to Ffm-Fair 20-25 minutes.
There is public parking in the house, but you will need to pay for it and it closes at night. Nearby free parking can sometimes be a hassle. Have a look in Französisches Gäßchen behind the building - you might find something there.
German, English, Japanese spoken and written
House rules- Courtesy and kindness to neighbours and the janitor are of utmost importance :-)
- The main entrance of the building must be locked from 7pm whenever leaving or entering
- The plants should be watered in case of an extended stay - the next guest will like it more if it's still a hint of green! :-)
- In case you find a short term notice hanging on the bulletin board - saying for example that people from supply companies will need to enter the apartment - please, pass the info on to us, thanks!
- In case something breaks or does not work, please, inform us in order to provide a rapid solution!
Thank you a lot for keeping these few "golden" rules in mind :-)

Reviews of this property
I had been striving to get hold of my regular visits to Offenbach for a few days in the Japanese furnished penthouse. For good reason, this wonderful apartment is very booked up. Hostess Elisa has then done everything to allow me a few days, which certainly requires extraordinary coordination efforts. She was always available for questions and has provided for a smooth stay. And so I had some wonderful days with a long soak in the large tub to celebrate the transition from day to evening (very traditional Japanese), relaxing work and evening readings in tatami and Futonraum or at a desk with a view over the rooftops of the city . The apartment has everything you need for working, relaxing and cooking is very centrally located, right next to a tram and a bike share station. Only downside for drivers: Parking is very limited in the vicinity. Very much hope that the apartment for my next visit is available again!
Ich hatte schon lange versucht, für meine regelmäßigen Besuche in Offenbach ein paar Tage im japanisch eingerichteten Penthouse zu ergattern. Aus gutem Grund ist dieses wunderbare Apartment sehr ausgebucht.
Gastgeberin Elisa hat dann alles getan, um mir einige Tage zu ermöglichen, was sicher ungewöhnliche Koordinationsanstrengungen erfordert hat. Sie war auch immer erreichbar für Fragen und hat für einen reibungslosen Aufenthalt gesorgt.
Und so hatte ich einige wunderbare Tage mit langem Bad in der großen Wanne, um den Übergang vom Tag zum Abend zu zelebrieren (ganz traditionell japanisch), entspannenden Arbeits- und Leseabenden im Tatami- und Futonraum oder am Schreibtisch mit Aussicht über die Dächer der Stadt.
Das Apartment bietet alles, was man zum Arbeiten, Entspannen und Kochen braucht, ist sehr zentral gelegen, direkt bei einer S-Bahn und einer bike share Station.
Einziger Nachteil, für Autofahrer: Parkmöglichkeiten sind sehr beschränkt in der näheren Umgebung.
Hoffe sehr, dass das Apartment für meinen nächsten Besuch wieder verfügbar ist!
Since the long leave was taken this time, he stayed together with the partner.
The place was very near also from the station and it was very convenient for there to be also many shops in the surroundings of an apartment and to live.
Moreover, it is only 10 minutes by train also going to the center in Frankfurt.
In all, conditions of location are perfect.
It is very clean the inside of the room.
the food utensils of equipment [ room ], a towel, a sheet, and a bed (Japanese style) -- it is perfection altogether.
Although I am living in Japan usually, this room changes the apartment in Japan, and nothing, but is relaxed and can live.
It is after it is clean and environment required for a life is ready.
However, since it is a Japanese-style apartment, it may not get used to foreign one, but probably, it will be satisfactory at all.
It is because Japanese culture also with foreign surely good one can be got in touch with.
I think that it is an apartment very good for Asians including Japan, of course.
Moreover, correspondence when troubled, and the exchange of connection are also early polite.
He can stay without troubling nothing.
Moreover, the partner was decided on, when going to Germany and this was used.
The really good travel was completed by the favor of this apartment.
Weil die lange Erlaubnis dieses Mal genommen wurde, blieb er zusammen mit dem Partner.
Die Stelle war auch von der Station sehr nah, und es war sehr günstig für dort, auch viel Geschäfte in den Umgebungen einer Wohnung und zu leben zu sein.
Überdies ist es nur 10 Minuten neben Zug, der auch zum Zentrum in Frankfurt geht.
In allem sind Bedingungen für Lage perfekt.
Es ist sehr sauber das innerhalb des Zimmers. die Essensgebrauchsgegenstande der Ausrüstung [Zimmer], ein Handtuch, ein Laken und ein Bett (Japanisch entwerfen), es ist insgesamt Vollendung.
Obwohl ich normalerweise in Japan wohne, verändert dieses Zimmer die Wohnung in Japan, und nichts, aber wird gelockert und kann leben.
Es ist, nachdem es sauber ist, und Umgebung verlangte, damit ein Leben bereit ist.
Aber, weil es eine Japanisch-Stilwohnung ist, wird es vielleicht zu man nicht fremd benutzt, aber wahrscheinlich wird es überhaupt befriedigend sein.
Es ist weil japanische Kultur auch mit gut kann einer fremd bestimmt sein, kam damit in Kontakt.
Ich glaube, daß es eine Wohnung für Asiaten einschließlich Japans natürlich sehr gut ist.
Überdies, Übereinstimmung wenn gestört, und der Tausch der Verbindung ist auch früh höflich.
Er kann bleiben, ohne nichts zu stören.
Überdies wurde für den Partner entschieden, als zu Deutschland und diesem zu gehen, benutzt wurde.
Die wirklich gute Reise wurde von der Gunst dieser Wohnung vervollständigt.
Very close to subway to city centre. The flat has its flows, but the help from the owners made it all gone. In fact the help from the owners was priceless! Very good contact.
We sincerely spent good days stay in Offenbach. Elisa she's very kindly and polite. She has being at time at meeting without waiting etc.
what we dind't appreciate so much is that we booked an appartment for 2 people very early and last days she has change our location in another place little where one bad was between entry door and kitchen without doors. The first kitchen seems was more confortable , but whate we found was on hte house were we stayed was enough for cook one plate. Probably two much money for the flat she offered us.
after the first two nights in Offenbach
we decided to spend more time at Musikmesse
Luckily I was able to extend my stay early in the morning ..
very flexible ..
The design has inspired me extremely .. to rebuild , -)
positive ;
less is more
simple and practical
Breakfast on terrace
Sunny and large
Negative ; we had to leave ; (
thanks again for that perfect stay ..
LG Misha
We booked 2 nights
the communication with Elisa was uncomplicated and relaxed
the apartment has everything you need
This was my first booking through Wimdu and we were not disappointed.
Beautiful bright sunny apartment with large terrace and just
furnished very minimally and creatively .. For me, in any case the first address
in Offenbach. central location!, railway station too quickly come to Frankfurt Fair! little mall is open till 24 clock,
but quiet
Everything was great thanks to ELISA;)

Above-Ground Filters
Keep your pool clean, clear and free from debris with an above-ground pool filter from Poolcenter.com. Spend more time relaxing in the water and less time worrying about tedious upkeep with a filter that can cleanse and purify water in pools of any capacity. Above-ground filters must be matched with above-ground pool pumps. Be sure to choose a filter size that best matches your pool size in gallons, as larger pools require larger filtration systems.

Shop pool filters for above-ground swimming pools
While above-ground pools tend to be easier to maintain than their in-ground counterparts, they still require proper maintenance and filtration to keep the water clean and contamination free. Above-ground filters work by collaborating with your pool pump to purify water in a cleansing cycle before sending clean water back into the pool via special pool eyeball fittings. Water that exits the filtration system and is pumped back into the pool stimulates motion, which in turn prohibits harmful bacteria growth and makes for healthy swimming.
As you're shopping around for the right pool filter, opt for high efficiency and low maintenance. Whether you choose a DE, sand, or cartridge filter, make sure you select a filter with an exterior that can hold up in severe weather conditions, as the filter is set up as a permanent outdoor fixture beside your pool. Some filters can trap particles as small as 30 microns, and filter areas with a large dirt capacity makes for less maintenance because you won't have to backwash or clean the elements as often.
Even with routine maintenance, you'll occasionally have to change the filter sand or filter cartridge. If your pool is cloudy or tinted green from algae growth and your filter seems to be taking a long time to clear up the water, it's possible that your filter was either undersized for the volume of water in your pool or that the sand or cartridge need replacing. When you're purchasing a new pool filter or replacing an existing one, be sure to also browse filter accessories to ensure you have everything you need to keep the water clean and healthy.

BILLYCAN, Jan (Djan NANUNDIE)
All a long the jila (waterhole) this side, my country, we been walk, wanga (my people) belong to him … We get him cold water and carry him on our head in round one (like coolamon). This is all the jila in my country including Karrparti, Kawarr, Jurntiwa and Wirrguja jila. It also shows Dodo, Kartal and Kiriwirri and Yukarri and others. When I was young I walked all around these places, with my mummy and daddy. In living water there is a quiet snake. Sometimes he rises up, but we sing him down, sometimes he can travel and bring rain … Ilyarra is my country, Ilyarra, where I grew up. Lots of tali (sand dunes) and jila in this country. This is big dog country.

The perfect gift for any art enthusiast:Memberships start at just $85.
NARRATOR: In this drawing, Number 8 – Special, several dark strands spiral from the lower-right corner to the center of the page. As you follow these strands, you'll notice some are tightly wound. Others have a more luxurious, sensuous curve. These forms don't picture anything in the world. They describe emotions that O'Keeffe felt but could not convey in words. At the same time, they create an illusion of real space, moving our eyes deeper and deeper into the drawing. We can imagine being in this space, experiencing its pulsating energy.
O'Keeffe made this charcoal drawing in 1916. Exhibition Curator Barbara Haskell.
BARBARA HASKELL: The spiral form is something that repeats throughout. She returns to it again and again, as a symbol for her of this world of nature and the inexpressibility—the sort of inexhaustibility—of the world around her.
NARRATOR: Take a look at the other charcoal works in this area. They are modest in scale, and use simple materials. But they are extremely radical works of art. In 1916, many American artists were very excited about the expressive possibilities of modern art. But almost no one besides O'Keeffe was making fully abstract images.
GEORGIA O'KEEFFE: I decided I was going to begin to make drawings, and I thought well I have a few things in my head that I've never thought of putting down. That nobody else taught me. And I was going to begin with charcoal, and I wasn't going to use color until I couldn't do what I wanted to do with color or black paint. And went on from there.
NARRATOR: O'Keeffe was one of the first American artists to produce an abstract work of art. But she avoided the fragmented, forms that were hallmarks of much American and European modernism. O'Keeffe's concern was to record a sensation, or feeling, of the fluid rhythms of the natural world.

The Real Housewives of New Jersey cast has definitely had their share of crazy women over the years. Danielle Staub, Teresa Giudice, Dina Manzo, etc. These women definitely know how to play their respective lead roles and carry the spotlight, but the show would be nothing without the people backing them up. Personally, the Real Housewives sidekicks are 100 times more hilarious and entertaining than the women. They're way more real and unfiltered because they feel like they're not the center of attention so they can say whatever. I don't think the show would survive without these awesome characters, so I've narrowed down a list of some of my favorites from over the years! Check out the gallery below to see who I chose!
