Arsenal's 125th year was as special as it was challenging. The pessimist might focus only on the low points, but without question, there were some remarkable highs.
We witnessed big wins and felt crushing losses. We welcomed new faces and said farewell to old friends. But despite some tough times, as the year went on we undoubtedly experienced a renewed sense of optimism.
Here is a month-by-month look back at the year that was.
It took only 13 minutes for Arsenal to grab their first goal of the New Year - appropriately, it belonged to Robin van Persie. Arsenal would score twice more in that 3-0 win at Birmingham and were firing on all cylinders. Second place in the Premier League was within reach, but Manchester City's defense-only tactics at Emirates Stadium four days later saw the game end 0-0. Two disappointing performances followed - a draw in the FA Cup against Leeds and an away loss to Ipswich in the first leg of the Carling Cup Semi-Final.
Arsenal bounced back behind an in-form Van Persie. The Dutchman netted twice against West Ham and picked up a hat-trick against Wigan - the first of his career. The month ended positively: Arsenal moved up to second in the league, dispatched Leeds and Huddersfield in the FA Cup and overcame a feisty Ipswich to advance to the Carling Cup Final.
A gutsy win over Everton kept things on track, but the infamous 4-4 draw at Newcastle sounded the alarms. Despite cruising to a 4-0 lead in the first 26 minutes, the home side responded in the second half with four late goals to stun the Arsenal players, manager and supporters alike.
But Arsenal bounced back against Wolves - courtesy of a Van Persie brace - which set up one of the most memorable games in Club history. After falling behind 0-1 to Barcelona in the first half of their Champions League tie, Arsenal responded with two late goals from Van Persie and Andrey Arshavin. Laurent Koscielny played the game of his career and kept Lionel Messi in his pocket the entire game.
Arsenal were the hottest team in England, and the only club still in the running for four trophies. But after a 1-1 draw against League One side Leyton Orient in the FA Cup and a difficult 1-0 win over Stoke, things started to turn. The month then ended in the most disappointing of ways with a 2-1 loss to Birmingham in the Carling Cup Final.
A 5-0 thrashing Leyton Orient was the lone bright spot of the month. A frustrating 0-0 draw to Sunderland was the pre-cursor to two of the biggest games of the season.
Hopes were high for the second leg of the Barcelona tie. And after 52 minutes, Arsenal had the lead on aggregate and were closing in on a monumental achievement. But soon after, Van Persie was shown a second yellow for 'wasting' a second of referee Massimo Busacca's precious time. And despite playing valiantly for the rest of the game, much like in 2006, a 10-man side can only last so long against the Catalans.
Out of the Carling Cup. Out of the Champions League. And then out of the FA Cup after a 2-0 loss to Man United. Adding insult to numerous injuries, we dropped two points at West Brom to put a serious dent in our title hopes.
April - Sorrow and frustration
An awful 0-0 draw at home to Blackburn saw Arsenal fall further behind the league leaders. They did rebound to win 3-1 at Blackpool, but any sense of redemption was immediately overshadowed by the death of Club Director Danny Fiszman. The longtime Club servant played a leading role in the Club's move from Highbury to Emirates Stadium.
Before he died, Fiszman made one more dramatic move. He sold his shares to fellow board member Stan Kroenke, which put the American on track to become the Club's majority shareholder.
But frustration was the name of the game for the rest of April. Arsenal looked to have secured a big win over Liverpool at home, but had to settle for a draw after conceding a late penalty. How late? Three minutes after injury time was supposed to expire.
Looking for redemption, Arsenal built a 3-1 first half lead at Spurs, but ended up conceding twice to drop another two points. The game was immediately followed by a crushing loss to Bolton which effectively ended any remaining hopes for a trophy.
But then a funny thing happened. Despite the doldrums and loss of confidence, Arsenal beat Man United 1-0 at home on the back of Aaron Ramsey's first goal since his horrible injury the previous February. The title was out of reach, but the pride was still there.
Unfortunately, the wheels soon came off. A loss at Stoke followed by a home loss to Aston Villa and a draw at Fulham meant that Arsenal would finish in fourth place. And it set up what would become one of the most stressful - and short - off seasons in recent memory.
June - Tabloid time
June was a month full of rumor and speculation. Virtually all of the chatter was about the future of Cesc Fabregas and Samir Nasri. But despite all the talk, nothing would be resolved for another two months.
Just 52 days after the final game of the 2010/11 season, Arsenal's pre-season began. The Club shied away from the usual Austrian experience to take a quick tour of Asia featuring warm-up matches against a Malaysia XI Chinese Super League side Hangzhou Greentown.
The next event was a trip to Germany where newly-signed forward Gervinho made an impressive debut with two goals against FC Cologne. Emirates Stadium re-opened for business a week later with the 2011 Emirates Cup. Despite the home-hemisphere advantage, Arsenal failed to raise the trophy after settling for draws against Boca Juniors and Thierry Henry's New York Red Bulls.
The Cesc and Samir Nasri saga continued without resolution, but Arsenal did say farewell to the last player from the Invincibles squad - Gael Clichy - who left for Manchester City.
Arsenal's unbeaten pre-season run came to an end against Benfica in the Eusebio Cup, and confusion about the status of both Cesc and Nasri continued. Making matters worse, Jack Wilshere developed what originally appeared to be a minor ankle injury, so the once well-stocked midfield had suddenly become rather bare.
But reinforcements would arrive. First came the signing of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, a 17-year-old midfielder from Southampton. That was quickly followed by the news that Arsenal's Japanese prodigy Ryo Miyaichi was granted a work permit and would be able to stay in England rather than go out on loan.
The actual season kicked off on August 13th at Newcastle. Despite dominating the game, Arsenal left with just a single point after another controversial draw against the Barcodes.
The month's biggest story occurred the following day when the protracted transfer saga involving Cesc was finally decided. The former captain returned to his hometown club after eight seasons in North London. Within a week and half, two other players would also make their exits: Emmanuel Eboue and Nasri to Galatasary and Man City respectively.
Balancing the good with the bad, Arsenal overcame Udinese to secure a spot in the Champions League Group Stage for the 14th consecutive year.
But Arsenal's worst start ever in the Premier League had begun. A loss to Liverpool at home hurt, but it was nothing compared to the 8-2 loss at Old Trafford. Working quickly to fill the holes in the squad Arsène Wenger brought in five new players in the final two days of the transfer window: Ju-young Park, Andres Santos, Per Mertesacker, Yossi Benayoun and Mikel Arteta.
September - Finding their feet
The month opened amid an international break, which gave several of the new players a chance to become a bit more familiar with their surroundings. All five would be in the squad against Swansea, although it was a goal from Andrey Arshavin and - I'd like to believe anyway - the presence of yours truly that sparked the team's first Premier League win of the season.
A draw in the Champions League against Borussia Dortmund preceded perhaps the most bewildering Arsenal performance of the year: two second-half own goals leading to a 4-3 loss to Blackburn. But the loss served as a wake-up call and the team responded with three straight wins.
October started with an exasperating loss in the North London derby and - perhaps more crucially - the loss of Bacary Sagna for three months. The Frenchman joined a growing list that meant - somewhat ironically - that the only healthy member of the first-choice back four was Kieran Gibbs.
But a two-week international break let some of the walking limping wounded get healthy. And by the time League play resumed ... there was something different about this team. Arsenal won four straight and displayed the kind of assurance and mettle that was lacking at the end of the previous campaign.
The game against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge was the icing on the confidence cake. Robin van Persie's hat-trick highlighted Arsenal's fifth straight win, and the Club continued their meteoric rise up the table.
In recent years, November has been a brutal month for Arsenal, but not this time around. The team's unbeaten run continued with draw against Marseille and another three-game winning streak against West Brom, Norwich and Dortmund. A draw to Fulham was disappointing, but still extended the unbeaten run in the league to six games.
In Europe, things couldn't have gone much better. The win over Dortmund combined with an Olympiacos win over Marseille meant Arsenal not only sealed a trip to the Champions League knockout stage for the 12th consecutive season, but also clinched the top spot in the group with one game to go.
The only downside to the month was a tough loss to Man City in the Carling Cup. It was a disappointing loss to be sure, but the young squad played more than admirably against a very experienced - and expensive - City side.
Arsenal stormed back to a huge road win - 4-0 at Wigan. But as the unbeaten run in the Premier League continued, but with qualification in Europe already assured, the run in the Champions League came to a halt. In addition to losing the game, Arsenal lost another full-back to injury.
But that would not dampen celebrations later in the week. Arsenal marked 125 years with a huge fete surrounding the game against Everton. And the party became an even bigger occasion when Van Persie scored the game winner in incredible fashion. The win pushed the Club into the Top Four for the first time this season - up 13 places in less than three months.
But the unbeaten run wouldn't last. The holiday season brought with it the usual bout of fixture congestion: four games in 14 days. Another meeting with Man City resulted in the same scoreline as before: a 1-0 loss. The game was not without controversy, but it once again showed this team can play with anyone.
A win against Aston Villa put us back on track, and saw Van Persie tie Thierry Henry for the most goals in a calendar year. Arsenal played well against Wolves, but luck was elusive, and the match ended in a draw. But the year would end on a high note. Arsenal topped QPR as Van Persie broke Henry's scoring record ... and Arsenal finished 2011 in the Top Four.Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

? the pics show a fan and a marlin lever gun where the oob are supposed to be.. There really isn't anything to prevent the firing pin from hitting the primer on the blowback ar15's except the shape of the bolt below the firing pin which isn't ideal.
Anyone tried the Promag 9mm Mag block? With low $$ barrel info and an update with the block...ouch! - Page 3 - AR15.COM
i think i know what is going on with the bump-fire K-booms on the third page.
it ain't the mag block either--
any body else want to give it a go?
? the pics show a fan and a marlin lever gun where the oob are supposed to be.. There really isn't anything to prevent the firing pin from hitting the primer on the blowback ar15's except the shape of the bolt below the firing pin which isn't ideal.
there has been some k-booms with the bump firing the 9mm ar-15s.
i know what the cause and the solution.
what is causing this is --solid buffers --they cause bolt bounce, and
weak and or too short a recoil spring.
over at the mall ninjas the make out like blow-backs just go k-boom ever so often anyway?--i'm thinking--wtf??--LOL!
if you going to simulate auto fire you better have a strong recoil spring and a real dead blow style buffer. it don't hurt to be over sprung but under spring is s no-no!
one of my pals built one of these with all colt stuff --that damn thing was blowing the mag out on the ground every third hit and the shell casing would be split all the way back to the rim--like it was a peeled bannana
guess what? he had one of them solid mall ninja required buffers and a weak and some what short recoil spring on top of that.
some mall-ninja told him a weak spring would slow the rate of fire and the solid heavy buffer was the in style thing--
me just being an ass as usual got one of them overly light weight CAR buffers that came out of a china made stock kit, and i did put in one good recoil spring that was the correct length and pressure.
i was shocked at how well it runs in bump firing --looks a bit fast --like 800rpm too--LOL!
damn near the real thing. now he tossed that solid buffer in the scrap can anyway.
it runs like a champ now-- hell i got to get me a bump-fire stock--LOL!
J4, any one who reads this should give a cigar.
This is vital info.
Thanks for posting it, you saved some ARs from destruction.
it probably ain't a problem less you bump firing and get the bolt to bounce -
-these blow-back jobs don't act like a gas operated gun at all with simulated FA/bumpfiring is going on.
the one i tinkered with only peeled the brass when bump firing -- and it was the third round that open bolt discharged. spit the mag straight into the dirt too--
i don't get no credit cause the fix was a phone call to a fellow who ran NFA papered full auto UZIs.
it was he that suggested getting rid of the solid buffer and adding a stronger recoil spring.
he said ironically FA uzi firing from a closed bolt had a faster cyclic rate with a stronger recoil spring but operated better--
he said the dead blow action of the buffer was more critical on this type of app than the weight of the buffer--
i am inclined to think he is correct.
we test fired it a few times yesterday .
it just gobbeled up the 9mm --no more open bolt k-booms either.
it would be a bit of a scare to have one of these things blow burning powder in your face. good luck that my pal only got a ringing ear and some smoking powder in his beard when it went "boom" on him.
for the first mag or two be damn sure you hold it with the ejection port far away from you face when testing a bump firing solution on a blow-back!
their pretty nasty when she furbar!

My tank has 1.5k psi. Hopper is halo too. Motor speed 3, mic sensitivity 3. And the other setting is on.
The only thing that I noticed with it was when I put the tank in the for the second time at the field. I swear it sounded like a leak in the gripframe. So I shot it once and the hissing went away. It hasnt made that noise since. Also, when i slightly pull the trigger, i can hear air, im assuming thats normal though.
Idk if it is bolt stick or if its not enough air is getting in, no clue.

Howdy Buckeye. I just found this site and joined. Another Buckeye is here. I'm in Columbus. One of the few anti-Ohio State football fans. :smt022
I went went to OSU, met my wife there and we both actually manged to graduate as Buckeye Alumni even after our first born son was delivered at OSU hospital, it doesn't get anymore Buckeye than that :mrgreen: http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/pa...smiley-017.gif
But it's nice to have another Ohioan onboard...who do you root for?
Nothing like Hiney-gate on a crisp fall morning in Ohio!!!
Truthfully, I'm not a fan of college football. Being born and raised in Cleveland, I'm a Dawg fan. Went to most of the games as a kid. Watched the likes of Jim Brown, Leroy Kelly, Gary Collins, Frank Ryan, Lou Groza, etc. Went to the airport to meet the team after the '64 championship win. Probably before your time. My problem with Columbus and OSU football is when they lose, the community is down the entire week until next saturday. When they win, stories saturate the media. I get sick of the, we're #1 chants. Granted, the Browns don't win many games, but after a lose, they talk about it monday morning, drop it and life goes on. Since '99 we have adjusted to more L's than W's. I will admit that I did follow OSU during the days of Woody Hayes. His players behaved. Different era for both coaches and players.
P.S. I was glad OSU beat Miami for the championship. Good vs. Evil.
Hey SigZagger your telling me you are 2 days older than football right?? If you can remember Marion Motley, Lou "the toe" Groza, and Jim Brown. Back when they were a power house.
Just fun'in with ya. I was raised in Cincinnati and the Browns was our team. I sure don't miss that city. It was a fun place back then, but I wouldn't live there now. Have a Good Day you Buckeyes.
What you have to understand about Ohio State Football and Columbus, is that the Buckeye's are our Pro Sports team :smt048 :mrgreen: , yea I know we have hockey and socccer, ok, I actually love going to BlueJackets Games, but Buckeye Football, that's out pro team like the Brownies in Cleveland....I'm a life long Cleveland Fan myself, fom Youngstown, that no-mans land between Pittsburgh and Cleveland :rolleyes: :smt023
Glad to hear it. Seems like some from that area of the state slipped over to the dark side when the Browns were not playing well. For some reason the Brownies just can't seem to get jump started. :smt022 Regarding the Buckeyes being Columbus' "pro" sports team. How about the best damn high school team in the state. :smt062 Actually, they are very good. As long as they don't play anyone from the SEC, PAC10, etc. :) Isn't the Big10 really the Big5?Quote:
Youngstown, that no-mans land between Pittsburgh and Cleveland
Go Browns
7-9 would be better than last year :smt022
Sw Ohio, Warren County
Hey Buckeye, There is another Ohioan on the boards, unfortunately I am currently stationed in CT(Navy). Did you go to the game yesterday vs. Penn. State? that was pretty embarassing for the 1st half. Oh well. Go Bucks!!!!
Nice to see a fellow Buckeye here! I like Georgia too, most beautiful women I've ever met were on a roadtrip to Georgia, something about that Southern sweetness too MMMmmmm. (Mr. P...Where at from the NE rustbelt? I'm from the Mahoning valley myself, relocated to Columbus for better opportunities, wife's from Cleveland)
I didn't go to the Penn State Game, but it was on for sure. There's an OSU flag flying on my house!! Bring on Iowa :smt062
N.E. Ohio here. Between Akron and Medina. Land of many gunshows. Good to see other Ohioans on the forum.
I'm from Wayne County.
Hello from scenic and beautiful Noble county, shoot IDPA,GSSF,a little(sometimes) IPSC or USPSA. I always get them confused!!
Hi guys!
I've been in Columbus for over 28 years. I was born/raised in Dayton.
I guess the Bengals/Browns controversy is over for this year. :mrgreen:
There are NRA Bullseye leagues in Powell, New Albany and at OSU, Cowboy Action Shooting in Mt. Vernon and Circleville, IDPA in Pickaway County, .22 Metalic Silhouette in Lancaster, etc., etc. There's something for everybody!
Welcome aboard everyone...the only solace I have as a Browns fan this year is that the Steelers also went down the tubes...but, I'm a Buckeye Grad, so it's a great year anyway :)
Cuyahoga County here.
Kings Island area here!

Moderator: David
In this fourth session of the season hunt program, I am excited to host our first Open House. I have been affiliated with the program all four years, and this will be my third year as director. If you have taken advantage of the materials offered on our web site, you realize that we endeavor to arm you with the information required to make your expectations meet the program. The offering descriptions along with the FAQs are detailed and thorough. Additionally, we set up booths at the main wildlife trade shows in Mississippi and Alabama where we have met many of you. Tours are conducted throughout the year, and hours spent on phone calls and emails disseminating information about the hunting opportunities. This is an affordable chance to hunt the strongest waterfowl areas in the MS Delta over a variety of venues. Of the $3,600.00 cost for a four man season hunt group, 60% goes directly to the landowners, 12% to the hunt staff, 8% to program operations (blind construction materials and food plot supplies), and 16% to the company for administrative costs and profit. Of the groups currently enrolled to participate in our hunt programs for the upcoming season, 55% have hunted with us in prior seasons while 45% are joining us for the first time. As we enter the fourth season, we have the advantage of the previous years' experience. The staff continues to make changes to the blind prototype and refine the method of assigning staff members to groups and groups to holes. The program benefits from the relationships built with many of the current groups. This Open House gives those of you who are interested in the program an opportunity to get a first hand look at what is offered. Tours of the hunting areas will be conducted, a retrieving demonstration conducted by one of our hunters, and a meal served offering the groups the opportunity to network with staff and other hunters. I am excited at the prospect of renewing friendships and embarking on new ones. I encourage you to take advantage of this showcase on Saturday, October 20, 2012, from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. Give me a call at 601-479-4873 to reserve a spot at the Open House.
The first MS Delta Ducks Open House this past Saturday, October 20, was a success. We had a combination of repeat groups (hunted with us in previous seasons and will again this year), new groups (hunting with us for the first time this season), and potential groups (looking over the hunting areas and meeting members of the staff and other groups). An Avery marsh stool and a dozen decoys were given away as door prizes. Barton Ramsey, who will be hunting with us for the third season, gave two retriever demonstrations. Barton is affiliated with Southaven Kennels of Eupora. He offered some excellent tips on tuning up our retrievers for the upcoming season as well as advice on how to hunt them from the blinds that will be available to the season hunters.
We have added some additional sled blinds this season and shored up our traditional field blinds. Last season we added burlap to our blinds and experimented with raffia which is equivalent to Avery Killer Weed. This season we moved away from the raffia and have added more substantial materials to the infrastructure. Five completed blinds were already in the fields for the tours. Senior field staffer, Garrett Holland, along with returning staffer, Britt Goodman, and new staffer, Dylan Peden, were available to meet the hunters and conduct tours of the hunting areas. The habitat complex areas were beginning to accumulate ducks which, at this point, consist primarily of gadwall, northern shovelers and teal joined by a number of local mallards. The hunt groups this season will have either Garrett or Britt as their primary staff member with Dylan floating among the groups. I will also take an active role in the field operations.
In this age of social media, it is our purpose and goal to be transparent and informative to potential hunters. We make ourselves available at trade shows, publish a wealth of information on the web site including FAQs, maintain a Facebook profile and Twitter following, and give tours frequently. It is always our intention that the expectations of the hunt groups meet our program. Whether you read something positive or negative about the program in a forum or chat room, I encourage you to talk directly to me and come take a look. Be direct with any and all questions and arm yourself with current, accurate information.
I was very pleased with the Open House and plan to schedule one early in 2013 following the season and then again in September 2013 after the trade shows. In the meantime, call me with your questions or to schedule a tour. I welcome the opportunity to meet you and talk ducks. Nathan Peden

text: Im thinking of going carbon fiber with a bolt together lower like one I did in stainless a while back. I need another AR for the old lady to shoot but this one will be a dedicated .22 (shes complaning about how heavy it is.) So heres my question how hard is this stuff to machine and how strong is it really. Do you think it would work well as a bolt together? Im thinking of carbon for both the lower and the tube for a custom stock. Ive never worked any carbon fiber so I have no idea about the stuff. Thoughts??

Born: October 9, 1995
Position: Forward
Chuba Akpom is used to being ahead of the curve. The pacy young striker made his debut for the Arsenal Under-18s when he was just 15 years old, he is now a key member of Terry Burton's under-21 side and he has been called up to the England Under-19s. It has been quite some rise.
A powerful forward, Chuba scored twice in 15 appearances for the under-18s last season and caught the eye of Burton in pre-season. That led to a call up to the under-21s and he has not looked back since. Now his task is to lead the line in the NextGen Series.
"I am not really fazed by anything," Akpom said. "You have to be confident when you go out on to the pitch and if you believe in yourself, a lot of things can go well for you.
"I'm quite surprised that I am already starting to play for the under-21s because I was hoping to play for the under-18s this season, because I'm only a first-year scholar. But I hope I can get more starts and wins for the [under-21s] over the course of the season.
"It is really nice to play at this level and I hope I keep going in this way - maybe I could even get a place on the bench in the Capital One Cup. With enough hard work, that could possibly happen for me."
Considering his rate of development, you certainly would not bet against it.Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

As heard on Sirius XM Radio and NPR stations!
The Bear, the classic one-act play by Anton Chekhov, produced, directed, and adapted by Joe Bevilacqua.
Written in 1900, The Bear is one of the great works of Anton Chekhov, about the strange beginnings of love between the recently widowed Mrs. Popov and Grigory Stepanovich Smirnov. In Russian the word for "bear" which has two meanings: an animal or a rather rude, clumsy, awkward man. The play is alternately titled The Boor.
The fine cast includes Cathi Tully, Bob Miller, and William Duff-Griffin.
©1982 Joe Bevilacqua (P)2011 Joe Bevilacqua
"This is one of Chekhov's very short plays, an unquestionable comedy, as opposed to the author's full length dramas which he considered comedies, but which are certainly of a more serious ilk. The Bear condenses so much of human nature into this short, comical, bizarre, and ultimately triumphant act. Chekhov demonstrates how close (at times) is the relationship between anger and passion, and how strange and wonderful is the human condition." (Jack Coulehan, Annotated Nine Plays of Chekhov, Grosset & Dunlap)
I focus on fiction, sci-fi, fantasy, science, history, politics and read a lot. I try to review everything I read.
"Nice Chekhov Funny Short Play"
I really like Chekhov, and this was one I had not read before, as it is considered a play not a short story. I enjoyed it quite a bit. The story was funny, ironic and just a little dark. The players were good (but not great). I enjoyed both of the main characters, the dialog, and conclusion. It is only 29 minutes and costs $1.95 which was quite worth it (but don't use a full credit).

The surgeons listed above are members of The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, licensed by the state of Texas and certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS).
Choose Your Plastic Surgeon Carefully
Remember, any licensed physician is legally allowed to advertise as a "cosmetic" surgeon, even if he or she has no formal surgical training. Your body is nothing to take chances with, so avoid the risk. Selecting a board-certified plastic surgeon from this list is your assurance that your doctor has the highest quality training and advanced surgical skills.
ABPS Certification and ASAPS Membership Matters
The ABPS is recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties to certify doctors in the specialty of plastic surgery. Following medical school, ABPS-certified plastic surgeons must have completed a minimum of 5 years of surgical training, including an accredited plastic surgery residency program. Members of ASAPS must be in at least their third year of active practice following ABPS certification.

QuoteHow awesome is that? i think it's super when people are excited about those they elect. even greater when that excitement can be cut short! :evil:November cometh.
headway in seeing that Americans are treated as they should be.
i didn't want this to turn into a war of words on this forum
I am SUCH a extreme greenie liberal I just got back from the PRIDE parade with my daughter and grandkids.I have framed the signed Christmas Card I got from Barack and Michelle and if I got to shake hands with him I would be in liberal, extreme greenie heaven. How awesome is that?
let it be known that i never voted for him nor in the future.i dislike alot of things about him but he's our president.if i have to shake his hand every week to get him down here in louisiana so be it.i think its another photo shoot for him,but hes down here.i hope he proves me wrong.time will tell and we just have to see.just like i got yall attention on this ,he will get the attention around the world on this mess.seeing it on tv is nothing like in person.it will destroy the way of life down here on the gulf coast.i didn't want this to turn into a war of words on this forum,but i can say this im proud to be an american and proud to have shaken OUR president's hand.im sure everyone on this forum is a proud american too. ....schawee
With the garbage he has thrown at him allll the time I am dang proud of what he has accomplished already. He is making major headway in seeing that Americans are treated as they should be.
I don't know what you guys want from Obama. He took over at a time of economic collapse and was handed two wars to manage at the same time. I don't know of any President since FDR who has faced such challenges

Posted by Anthony Mullen on July 31, 2013
In 2002, the zeitgeist orchestrator David Bowie opined, "Music itself is going to become like running water or electricity." A few years later, in 2005, the futurists Gerd Leonhard and Dave Kusek proposed "music as water" in their industry-shaking book, The Future of Music (A Manifesto for the Digital Music Revolution).
The metaphor was simple — music would flow on demand, like a utility, to people's home hi-fis and portable music players. Subscription access to "all" music was the approach that ultimately ended up with no more ownership of physical or even digital copies; CDs, mp3s, and the other ground-bound trinkets would no longer be necessary. Even in my own behavior, I see this change — where once I'd spend time ripping my CDs and loading up my 160GB iPod, now I simply curate music, like my Boxing playlist, in the cloud via Spotify.
Eleven years later, Bowie's prediction is coming true and streaming is progressing at speed. In metropolitan Argentina 1 in 3 consumers are listening to streaming music - evenly split between mobile and computers (desktop, laptop, tablet). In France 15% of those we surveyed streamed on a computer but a whopping 27% used mobile. In fact this trend to streaming via mobile is likely to be one that will continue worldwide and today in metropolitan regions of Hong Kong and Mexico, as well as South Korea mobile has already considerably overtaken computers as the preferred listening method.

Icy conditions forecast for the area arrived after dark but were not as serious locally as forecast.
Meade County Schools are closed today because of weather and road conditions. Breckinridge County Schools are on a one-hour delay. Hardin County, Elizabethtown and other districts in neighboring counties are on schedule today.
McKendree University's campus in Radcliff also is closed today.
The heaviest levels of sleet and icy followed the Ohio River and went north of the area. With temperatures hovering at the freezing mark, officials warn motorists to be alert for scattered slick spots including incidents of black ice. Also, bridges and overpasses tend to freeze before surface roads.

Hey all longtime lurker !love the site.I'm spraying a 1973 MGB with Napa Crossfire Acrylic Enamel (Blaze red). This car is a driver not a show car. I'm sanding the car down with 320 scuff pads. This is the first time I have ever painted anything. I do have a 6 hp 30 gal craftsman air compressor and water seperator. I had a few questions and wanted to know what you pros think.*Should I use a conventional gun hvlp or turbine? The Turbine is a rental from Home depot and is a 4 stage. *If I go the route of Hvlp gun should I use a tip smaller than 1.4? I've read where people use 1.0 for AE SS and turn the air up.* I also read I don't have to use a hardener but it won't shine that well. Is a hardener necessary??Here is the paint[url]http://www.martinsenour-autopaint.com/media/pds/english/9104.pdf[/url][url]http://www.martinsenour-autopaint.com/en/ProductHighlights/~/media/Martin-Senour-Files/Product-Information/Crossfire/Systems-Quick-Reference.ashx[/url]Guns I'm looking at: But I'm not opposed to spending a little more to get a better flow.http://www.harborfreight.com/professional-automotive-hvlp-spray-gun-kit-94572.htmlhttp://www.harborfreight.com/high-volume-low-pressure-gravity-feed-spray-gun-66222.htmlThe car does not have any rust. I cut out all the bad and installed new metal. I'm using rage extreme for smoothing out the welds. I'll wash and remove wax, remove all the chrome, sand, filler. The new metal is already primed.Pictures http://picasaweb.google.com/102677989530297021095/20120113Any other tips will be much appreciated.ThanksBryan
Hi, I've shot a few but never used that stuff.Gravity feed HVLP is my choice from those three.1.4 should be fine.Use the hardener, you'll be much happier with the results.The purple gun is junk, I've got one. Poorly machined nozzles. Try the other or borrow a decent one for spray day.Since you are sanding with 320 grit and using a red color, I would suggest using red sealer or additional finer sanding.The sealer and hardener will yes cost a bit more but its spending the money in the right place. The sealer helps it stick and last, plus makes the coverage and "hiding" better. The hardener may mean the difference of being able to wipe off bird droppings without leaving a mark or not. To keep your DIY enamel paint job happy, do minimal polishing but maximum waxing. Keep us posted on how it goes and give a shout if you have any other questions.

While there are many restaurants that serve soup, only a few offer bowls so distinctive that customers crave it, returning for it week after week, year after year.
We've selected 12 favorite northern Utah signature soups, bowls that we think are worth ordering again and again or trying for the very first time. (And please email us at email@example.com if you think we've missed one.)
Soup Kitchen chicken noodle • This hearty soup, made with thick locally made noodles, roasted chicken and vegetables, is a welcome meal on cold day, said Mark Aitken, whose parents opened the first Soup Kitchen some 40 years ago. Today, there are five locations around the valley. The tomato soup is another popular offering, Aitken said, but his favorite is the clam chowder.
Deer Valley turkey chili • This Southwest-style chili is made with black beans, corn, red peppers and thickened with masa harina and rice flour, which means it's gluten free. Julie Wilson, Deer Valley's food and beverage director, said the recipe came about some 25 years ago. "I was walking through the kitchen and saw chicken fajitas that we had over-produced for a banquet. I told the staff to make a chili with it. It tasted so good we thought skiers would like it."
Carlucci's tomato basil • Milk, not cream, makes this version of classic tomato soup lighter than some. A touch of sugar balances out the fresh Roma tomato flavors. Have it alone or with the cheddar/mozzarella grilled cheese sandwich served on the bakery's nine-grain bread.
Sweetly Divine polish dill pickle • Every other Tuesday, owner Mark Grodkowski gives a nod to his native Poland by making this creamy soup of dill pickles, potatoes and carrots at his Logan restaurant. "People are hesitant to try it at first," said the classically trained pastry chef. "But once they do, they get hooked."
Thai Delight tom ka gai • This coconut milk soup, with chicken, straw mushroom, lemongrass and kaffir lime, hits every flavor note: sweet, sour and spicy. When ordering, you'll be asked to choose a heat level from one to five, with five being the hottest.
Greek City Grill lemon rice • Traditional avgolemono egg-lemon soup at this quick-serve eatery is smooth and creamy and has a long history, says owner Bob Daskalakis. The recipe was given to him by Mary and Jim Maroudas, who operated the Grecian Gardens restaurant on State Street for many years.
Taco Taco posole • This traditional Mexican soup, made with hominy and tender roast pork, is available on Friday, Saturday and Sunday only. It comes garnished with shredded cabbage and radishes and a homemade salsa on the side, said owner Ray Anderson, who opened Ogden restaurant with his wife Patty, and her parents more than 18 years ago.
Market Street clam chowder • This is Utah's most popular version of New England clam chowder. Thick and creamy, it's filled with bite-sized pieces of potatoes, onions, celery and leeks, and is especially good with a hunk of crusty bread for dipping.
Lamb's Grill lentil • If it's Thursday, then it's lentil soup day at Lamb's Grill in downtown Salt Lake City. Customers have been enjoying this hearty tomato-based soup with vegetables, spices and beef broth sorry, it's not vegetarian since long before lentils were dubbed a super food, said Rick Lim, general manager.
Desert Edge French onion • The Pub started serving its French onion soup in the late 1970s. Drippings from the roast beef are added to house-made beef and chicken stock, along with red wine and sherry, said owner Scott Hale. Caramelized onions, toasted bread and Swiss cheese cooked until golden and bubbly finish this warming soup.
Little America cream of chicken noodle • Served only on Sundays, this creamy soup with tender chicken and noodles has become a religious experience for many Utah residents. The hotel started serving it about 40 years ago, using a recipe from the family of owner Earl Holding.
Green Pig Pub reuben • All the ingredients used to make a corned beef and sauerkraut sandwich as well as potatoes, beer and heavy cream are infused into this popular daily soup.

Save money when you book a flight + car together. Our car hire, in partnership with Avis, is easy and convenient. Enjoy great rates and a range of exclusive benefits.
British Airways car hire, in partnership with Avis, includes all of the mandatory charges that you'll need to drive away your car in Houston.
Less than an hour from the Gulf of Mexico's shore, Houston is the gateway to the Texan coast. This region is easy to explore with a Houston fly-drive holiday, and you can be at Galveston's Schlitterbahn Water Park or on the quieter beach at Surfside within hours of touching down at Houston airport. For an urban contrast with Houston, the Texan state capital of Austin is two and a half hours drive away, a hip, laid-back city known for hosting the alternative-leaning springtime SXSW music festival. Just beyond Austin are the Texas Hill Country's wide-open landscape of forested hills and the city of San Antonio, still a pilgrimage site for many Texans as the site of the Battle of the Alamo.
Drive from one major Texas city to another, taking in rural Texas on route. Potential stops include Centerville, with its colonial courthouse and Fort Boggy state park, or Huntsville, where the grave of Sam Houston is located, or Conroe, where you can try golf at one of the many local courses or visit Sam Houston National Forest, where outdoor lovers can enjoy year-round hiking. End up in Dallas, where JFK was shot and home to a lot of shopping centres.
Stop off in Katy or La Grange, a unique small town Texas experience filled with history, culture, trendy shops and delicious cuisine. Or visit Bastrop and take a stroll along the Colorado River, or Brenham, with its outside activities like geocaching, wineries and lavender farms. Austin is known to embrace alternative cultures and is home to the State Capitol, a beautiful building. Depending on when you are there, you may be able to hit up one of the many music and film festivals.
Only about an hour's drive southeast from the city, Houstonians go to Galveston island for its Gulf Coast beach, the Strand, Schlitterbahn Waterpark Galveston and Moody Gardens. Popular with locals, many of whom own summer houses here, Galveston offers lots to do including Haak vineyard and the Texas Seaport Museum which is home to several historic ships. There is also a Pleasure Pier, which can provide house of fun.
With four miles of less crowded beaches, offering an alternative to Galveston, about an hour's drive away from Houston. Enjoy a variety of activities from surfing and other water sports including jet skis and boats, to crabbing over the pier. Fishing is also possible here and you can buy fresh shrimp and fish over the bridge in Clute or Lake Jackson.
Stroll along the boardwalk, which provides a great selection of restaurants and amusement rides, located south of Houston and on the way to Galveston Island. Visit the Johnson Space centre, which is great for a personal tour or 'Murder by chocolate', a dinner theatre that is great for families.

Michael-Is that starting on finished foundation? Or fresh combs? August or past seems awfully late in the year. By September or so they slow down so much on comb production. I just can't see how they'd get finished with 2 supers before winter.But I started a 2 pound package on fresh frames at the begining of July, and I had people tell me that was too late. I wasn't. :) They got the work done in time.Beth
Let's keep the terminology straight or it will become as confusing as suger water.
I'm thinking it is sort of a long shot on finding a package right now.
Beehopper, if you can get a 3 lbs. package shipped to you soon, the weather has been nice enough around here that you could get a hive full of two boxes full before winter, using foundation. Or you could use the permacomb, I suppose, but I have no experience with that.Where are you in town that you need to find an outyard for your hive? -- Kris
I'm not that familiar with that section, but Liz seems to remember it as older homes in a development? How large are the lot sizes? That said, I'm not certain it's the code enforcement officer's place to give legal advice regarding the "liability issues" of keeping bees in town. Talk with your insurance agent, or your attorney. Consider where the fencing and shrubbery in everyone's backyards runs, and how high they are, etc. And talk with your neighborss.I've seen some pretty intense looking dogs kept behind flimsy fences that are a greater risk of liability than are bees.-- Kris

Hello everyone,
I have recently passed the Cambridge CELTA, and I am now looking for my first job.
I would love to hear any suggestions that you might have about my profile and what I could expect.
To make it short, Here I am:
- French national, 32 year old
- Living and working in London since 2005 (working with loads of different nationalities(as a gardener)). I decided to change career.
- Passed the Cambridge CELTA this year (at a College in London / 6 months part-time course), enjoyed every second of it! I taught both elementary and pre-int levels (6hours)
- I have no other teaching experience
- Near native level of English
- Passion for languages
- I have been to Uni in France (10 years ago), for 2 years, studying Applied Languages in English and Italian, and Italian Language and Civilisation. But I haven't got a degree.
- I have got an A'Level in Litteracy and modern languages (English, Italian, German)(obtained in France)
Being now Celta qualified, I am looking forward to sart teaching abroad (south of Europe, Thailand, Vietnam, Brazil would be my favourite destinations).
I am aware that the lack of a degree might be an issue, but I would love to hear what you think of my profile ( - and + ), and how would you prospect for a first job with this profile?
=) There are so many contradictoy things on the net..... I thaught I would just ask directly what you experienced teachers think.
Thanks a lot for your advice, suggestions, ideas.... =)

Green Flash Beers have arrived!
Based in San Diego, CA, Green Flash has made quite an impression on the beer world. Their incredibly hoppy beers are some of the highest rated on Ratebeer.com.
West Coast IPA 95 Ibu's 8.1% ABV
As craft beer pioneers, Green Flash embarked on an expedition to brew the benchmark West Coast IPA. They ventured into the unknown and struck gold, discovering a tantalizing menagerie of hops. Simcoe for tropical and grapefruit zest, Columbus for hop pungency, Centennial for pine notes, Citra for citrus zest, and Cascade for floral aroma are layered throughout the brewing process. 98 points on Ratebeer.com
Road Warrior (Imperial/Double IPA) 80 Ibu's 9.0% ABV
Hop on and enjoy the rye of your life! Green Flash's imperial rye IPA is brewed with Columbus and Mosaic hops, rich crystal and spicy rye malts. Mosaic and Amarillo dry hopping boldly shines through in the finish. 98 points on Ratebeer.com
Hop Head Red (Double Red IPA) 70 Ibu's 8.1% ABV
A luscious beauty, Hop Head Red® exudes resinous hoppy qualities from Amarillo, Warrior and Nugget to overtake the full-bodied depths of a caramel malt base. Captivating and seductive floral aromas and alluring hop flavors are the result of dry hopping with mountains of Amarillo. 95 points on Ratebeer.com
Green Bullet 100+ Ibu's 10.1% ABV
New Zealand grown Pacific Gem and Green Bullet hops combine to create this adventurous Triple IPA. Green Bullet leaps onto your palate with bold, spicy pine and citrus flavors including tropical notes of mango and pineapple. 98 points Ratebeer.com
Imperial IPA 101 Ibu's 9.0% ABV
Reaching new heights, the mountains of Summit and Nugget hops in this intense high gravity Imperial IPA will thrill even the extreme beer adventurer. Unearth savory pine, evergreen and pineapple aromas and experience the colossal rush of a hoppy adventure. 99 points on Ratebeer.com
Double Stout 45 Ibu's 8.8% ABV
Green Flash explored 19th Century British Stout recipes, then charted a fresh course to land on a modern American version of the old-world classic. Their Double Stout encompasses the very best of both worlds. Golden naked oats, dark crystal and roasted malt offer a luscious balance of bittersweet chocolate and hints of coffee. 99 points on Ratebeer.com
New Beers
Brouwerij The Musketeers
Troubadour Beers
Brouwerij The Musketters was founded in 2000 by 4 brew-engineers, after being graduated from KaHo St. Lieven in Gent, the best known brewing school of Flanders. Their names: Kristof De Roo, Rikkert Maertens, Stefaan Soetemans and Sven Suys. Just out of University, it was soon pretty clear to them that brew-master jobs are not easy to find in the Belgian beer world. Family traditions and brewing secrets are kept closely guarded within the brewing family. Like the real French Musketeers of the 18th century, the 4 friends bundled their enthusiasm and efforts, and created "the Musketeers brewing company."
Troubadour Magma
Troubadour Magma is an amber colored beer with the bitterness of an American IPA but balanced with the fruitiness of a Belgian Triple. A Triple IPA if you will. Czech bittering hops with Simcoe for Dry-hopping giving an explosion of fruity aromas.
97 points ratebeer.com.
Troubadour Westkust
Troubadour 'Westkust' is a dark, almost black beer with a hoppy aroma, roasted malt, coffee and light notes of chocolate and vanilla. The taste is a balance between the taste of roasted malt and coffee followed by a strong but pleasant bitterness that slowly gets the upper hand and ensures a long hoppy finish. A great Belgian Black IPA.
97 points ratebeer.com
Troubadour Obscura
Troubadour Obscura is a dark red-brown colored beer, with a rich, malty body combined with different touches of a stout but in a very nice balanced way: roast, chocolate, coffee, vanilla. A mild stout with a Belgian body.
96 points ratebeer.com.
De Brabandere Petrus Beers
The De Brabandere Brewery produces a fabulous range of specialty beers under the brand name Petrus. Each of these high fermentation beers reflects the brewing artistry of the master brewers. The whole Petrus family is renowned both nationally and internationally and can be classed without a doubt as the height of beer brewing.
Petrus Aged Pale
This beer has an old gold to bronze color, rather than the burgundy more common in the breweries of West Flanders. This is the 'mother beer,' used in various quantities to blend with the other Petrus beers, and to give them their unique and very distinctive taste. This mother beer is rather sour with a bite like the best Brut Champagnes. Aged 24-36 months in oak. A connoisseur's delight! The only one of its kind on the U.S. market.

Petrus Dubble Bruin
Petrus Dubbel Bruin Ale is a top-fermented dark beer with a subtle and slightly carmelized flavor. Brewed with pure spring water and carefully selected hops and malts.
Poperings Hommelbier
For many centuries the Southern part of West-Flanders has been known as an Agricultural region, with a solid reputation for its grains and also for the hops.
During World War I the entire region around Ieper was completely bombarded to the ground. Life as they knew it, and all economical and agricultural activities came to an end.
Shortly after the great war, with a lot of hard work, people rebuilt the area and after a while hops were replanted in the Poperinge region. Very soon they were able to harvest the hops (hops is called hommel in the Flanders dialect) and the production and export started again.
Every 3 years the city of Poperinge has a Hops procession, and by the end of the 70's they decided that they were looking for a worthy ambassador to represent the hops culture. Combining all his knowledge and craftsmanship Karel Leroy introduced in 1981 poperings hommelbier, that immediately shook the Beer world.
This refreshing gold colored ale has a honeysuckle sweetness that is nicely balanced by a full solid hops bill. It also has a late, spicy, cumin-seed, dryness, that amazingly enough never gives you a dry after mouth feeling.

Scotch Silly
Brasserie de Silly, a sixth generation independent family brewer, is located South West of Brussels in the Hainaut Province of Wallonia. Silly is a little dormant farming village just outside the old city of Enghien, which was once world famous for its tapestries. Larger farms used to have their own brewery up to well into the 20th century.
The written history of the Brasserie de Silly starts in 1852, when Nicolas Meynsbrughen bought the farm and started to keep records on his brewing activities. All farming activities were ended around 1950, when the focus turned to brewing quality beers.
The velvety mouth feel, the darker red-ruby color, and the licorice undertones are typical for a real Scotch Ale. Candy sugar is added with the yeast in the bottle, and in the keg, for the refermentation. It offers a finely wooded nose hinting at hazelnut, and is therefore distinct from traditional British scotches. It has a more rounded taste letting a discreetly full-bodied bitterness come to the fore.

Arsène Wenger says Thierry Henry asked to train with Arsenal - but it was the manager's idea to sign him up.
Henry is set to re-join the Club he left in 2007 on a two-month loan deal from MLS outfit New York Red Bull. The deal is not yet complete but Wenger confirmed it would probably go ahead in his pre-match press conference on Friday.
Wenger has cast his eye over Henry in training since the middle of November and has been impressed enough to make his move.
"It was my idea because I decide and he was happy with it," said the manager. "It was his idea as well to come here, but I had to make the decision to do it.
"He is certainly very happy and modest about it as well. He just wants to help us get through a period where we lose two strikers.
"I don't know [when his first game will be]. The first game is tomorrow [against QPR] and that is the important one. He won't be part of that at all. I don't know if he can play against Leeds - we have two massive games before then."
With Gervinho and Marouane Chamakh both set to depart for Africa Cup of Nations duty in the coming weeks, Wenger has been keen to bolster his attacking options.
He believes that Henry, who scored 226 goals in eight years for the Club, is the man to help his side through another demanding period.
"First of all we do it because Gervinho and Chamakh go to the African Nations Cup and to cover for two months is ideal," said Wenger.
"He is experienced, he is quality, he knows the Club, he can help the players on and off the pitch. He has vast experience.
"No one can measure that but I know it can only be positive. He has exceptional talent; he is a very intelligent man and has a desire to help the Club, so it can only be positive. But it is difficult to measure how positive an influence he is."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Daily Obsessions: Fave Fragrances
You may have heard: Mother's Day is May 12th. If your mother is anything like mine, she's worn the same fragrance for the last 20 years. If she's not, you may be in need of some of some assistance in the gift-giving department. Not to worry! I scoured the Daily Obsessions archives to bring you Sephora staffers' favorite fragrances.
So get on it. Because your mother would tell you not to procrastinate.
1. Chloé Love, Chloé
"I keep a bottle of it right next to my desk and spray it on my wrists every night before I leave work
for a perfume 'pick me up.' It smells floral yet modern, which I think is really unusual." - Jessica F., Marketing Assistant
2. Tom Ford Black Orchid
"I love everything by Tom Ford, but my favorite is this scent and its chic bottle design." - Kelley H., Social Media Writer
3. Dior Miss Dior Eau de Parfum
"Miss Dior's bottle is too cute for words—and the scent makes me feel sexy and confident." - Michaela S., Business Development
4. Chanel N°5 EAU PREMIÈRE SPRAY
"When I wear this fragrance I feel expensive. It's like the easy-going sister to its more classic and sophisticated older sister - the original Chanel N05." - Sam D., Beauty Writer
5. Prada Infusion d'Iris
"I spray on this fragrance every morning before I leave the house. It's so light and fresh. The notes of iris and Sicilian mandarin bring me straight back to my vacation in Italy." - Nicole G., Beauty Writer
6. Marc Jacobs Daisy Eau So Fresh
"I am in love! This fresh scent makes me feel like everyday is a sunny Friday." - Joey E., Merchandise Coordinator
"Perfect for someone who deserves to be spoiled a little extra. Not only does this fragrance smell delightful, it looks incredible on display as well!" - Stephanie S., Sephora PRO Artist

9. Fresh Hesperides Grapefruit

10. Stella McCartney Stella
"I smelled this on a complete stranger and immediately became obsessed. It's light enough to not overpower during the day, but distinctive enough to make an impact at nighttime." - Cassandra H., Fragrance Buyer
What fragrance would you recommend for Mom? Show & Tell in the comments!
Shop Fragrance> http://seph.me/ZUCIfs
I'm a huge fan of Marchesa Parfum d'Extase for Mom myself- or me!
If she's a clean, summery scent person, I'm also a big fan of Armani Aqua di Gioia.
I also think you can't go wrong for Mom with a Chanel scent- probably one of the Chance versions.
I know my mother swears by Chanel No 5 when she's able to wear perfume (my dad is sensitive)
@starletta - Chanel No 5 is a classic! Eau Premiere is a bit of a lighter version for people who might not want something so strong.
@MoreGun89 - how interesting! Now I have to go hunt that down and smell it.
For a younger mom, YSL Parisienne or Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Mandarine-Basilic.
For in between or anyone who likes richer fragrances, Tom Ford White Patchouli.
For the fashionista (what I would want if I weren't just a cat mom), Bulgari Black (you'd probably have to know she liked this fragrance or is a risk-taker...it's shared and one of my favorites). Bulgari Jasmine Noir would be a more universal choice (but fragrance is so personal of course)!
For a mature mom/ one that likes statement fragrances, Stella McCartney Stella or YSL Opium.
And +1 on these for moms who like lighter scents:
Prada Infusion d'Iris
Fresh Hesperides Grapefruit
I personally love Viktor & Rolf's Flowerbomb, Especially Escada, and Viva La Juicy. My mom, on the other hand, is a fan of Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue, Jennifer Aniston and Donna Karan Cashmere Mist.
Cashmere Mist is very classic...very powdery!
I recently became a fan of See by Chloe! It has a really unique almost powdery smell to it. I find the fragrance delicate, yet still bold.
All great recommendations!
@makeupmaven - I luuuuv Bulgari Black. It's definitely a a strong scent, but not too much for me.
@colorobsession - +1 for Light Blue and Cashmere Mist! I know a lot of moms who wear those.
I'm giving my mom YSL manifesto....smells lovely!
I don't know if it is new but i've never heard of it before until I bought the fragrance sampler and tried it.
I like it so much that i'm buying one for myself :-)
Here's another vote for Cashmere Mist. It's a lovely classic fragrance that doesn't give off an outdated vibe.
I think Flowerbomb just smells so good and is easy to wear. It's the kind of fragrance that makes me feel peaceful.
I think Dot by March Jacobs is a great idea for a gift. The bottle is adorable and the fragrance is Spring/Summer flowers and fruit-totally yummy! It's a very happy fragrance.
Is See by Chloe a bit young for mom? I personally love it but I don't know if it's a bit on the younger side...
I like Clinique happy heart, d&g light blue, burberry. obsession, nina ricci apple, Jessica mclintoc, viva la juicy, versace pink, Jessica simpson fancy love.
I absolutely love the Lancome Tresor Midnight Rose! I have been eyeing for weeks now and am getting closer and closer to purchasing it.

Thank you for supporting gorillas
The western lowland gorilla belongs to the family Pongidae, which includes four species of great apes: gorilla, chimpanzee, bonobo (formerly called pygmy chimpanzee) and orangutan.
There are three recognized subspecies of gorilla: western lowland gorilla (Gorilla gorilla gorilla), eastern lowland gorilla (Gorilla gorilla graueri) and mountain gorilla (Gorilla gorilla beringei). The western lowland gorilla lives in six countries across west equatorial Africa: southeast Nigeria, Gabon, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Congo and Equatorial Guinea.
All gorillas live in primary and secondary tropical rain forests. Different subspecies range throughout various altitudes, from sea level to 12,500 feet (3,790 m).
Adult male: Approximately 8 feet (2.4 m) Adult female: Approximately 6.5 feet (2 m)
Adult male weight: 350-600 pounds (157-273 kg) Adult female weight: 150-300 pounds (66-136 kg)
Estimated at 30-35 years in the wild. Average life span is 35-45 years in zoos, with the record being 54 years.
In the wild: Trees and herbaceous vegetation including leaves, shoots, stalks, stems, vines, bark, fruits and berries, and occasionally invertebrates such as termites.
At the zoo: Vegetables, fruits, leaf eater biscuits, browse (cut branches from a variety of trees, herbaceous plants, alfalfa, ferns, clover), non-fat milk and yogurt, and a vitamin and mineral supplement.
All subspecies of female gorillas sexually mature in the wild between the ages of 7 to 8 and in captivity approximately 5-1/2 years old. Males sexually mature in the wild between 8 to 9 1/2 years old and in captivity as early as 6-1/2. Males are not considered fully mature until about 15 years old. Gorillas do not have a distinct breeding season. Gestation lasts from 250 to 270 days. In the wild, female gorillas usually deliver their first offspring at 10 1/2 years old and at four year intervals thereafter. One infant is normally produced and twins are rare.
At birth, infants weigh 4-5 pounds (1.8-2.3 kg) and have sparse hair covering their pink-gray skin. At about nine to 10 weeks, they begin to crawl on their own and soon walk on all four limbs. A white patch of hair appears on the rump of gorilla infants at about the same time they begin to walk. The white patch helps the mother keep track of the infant and assists other group members in identifying the gorilla as an infant. The rump patch begins to disappear at about age 3, the same age that weaning usually begins. Females remain with their natal group until about age 8 or 9, then join an unrelated group or a solitary male. Males remain with their natal group until about age 12, then begin to go off on their own. Solitary males try to attract females from other groups to form their own group.
A family group includes one dominant silverback male, several adult females, adolescents, juveniles and infants. The group may also include one or two subordinate silverbacks. All adult males are silverbacks. Although gorillas are normally not aggressive, they can exhibit certain aggressive actions when disturbed. Adult males perform elaborate displays, including chest beating, running sideways and tearing up vegetation to frighten off an intruding male or other threat. Males also use these displays as a show of dominance within the group. Adult females can become aggressive when defending their infants, or while helping each other drive off rowdy, young adult males. The silverback is the peace keeper and stops occasional squabbles between females.
Gorillas are incredibly powerful, the largest great ape in the world. Regardless of their imposing appearance, they are in fact quite shy, gentle animals. Gorillas are virtually vegetarian and forage throughout the day in search of a variety of plants to consume. The hair of the western lowland gorilla is grayish-black and usually reddish on their head (particularly prominent in adult males). At about age 10, males begin to grow the distinctive silver-white saddle of hair on their back, which in western lowland gorillas continues to extend down the rump and thighs as the male gets older. Mountain gorillas have darker, longer hair.
Woodland Park Zoo has three gorilla groups in total, two of which can be viewed at any time in the zoo's Tropical Rain Forest. Head to the Our Gorillas tab of this fact sheet to see which individuals can be found in each group.
All gorillas are endangered. The estimated population of wild western lowland gorillas is about 110,000 and the estimated population of eastern lowland gorillas is 10,500. Mountain gorillas are the most endangered and number about 650. The primary reason gorillas are endangered is because of habitat destruction caused by logging and agricultural expansion. The bushmeat trade, facilitated by logging, has become an immediate threat to the western lowland gorilla population, particularly in Cameroon. Additionally, infection from the Ebola virus has recently become a great threat, killing many gorillas.
Woodland Park Zoo participates in the Association of Zoos & Aquariums' (AZA) Species Survival Plan (SSP) for gorillas. We have helped diversify the captive gene pool with our breeding efforts. The zoo also works to educate the public about gorillas and this is the first step to gorilla conservation.
The effort to save endangered species requires cooperation and support at the international, national, regional and individual levels. You can help in this cause. Join and become active in a conservation organization of your choice. Don't buy products made from wild animal parts. Let your elected representatives know your views about protecting endangered species and wild habitats.

History: A member of the original Woodland Park Zoo group, Pete is the group leader. As an older male with much parenting and leadership experience, he provides a lot of stability for the group.
Characteristics: Red hair on head and silver back, asymmetrical facial features, deep-set eyes, "frowning" expression
Adult Female
Born: Wild-born in 1970. Mother of Ngozi and Calaya.
Weight: 218 pounds (98.9 kg)

Characteristics: Prominent silver back, small but muscular stature (especially in upper body), small, smooth face with longer hair on her arms than Jumoke.
Born: January 26, 1979. Father of Ngozi, Naku, Akenji and Calaya.
Weight: 395 (179.2 kg)
History: Vip was the first captive-born gorilla in the Netherlands, eventually moving to the Franklin Park Zoo in Boston. In 1996 he moved here and became the leader of this group. Because he has no breeding relative in North America, his offspring are especially valuable to the captive gorilla population. Vip is an excellent father and takes great interest in his offspring. He has sired five daughters while at Woodland Park Zoo.
Characteristics: Very low brow ridge (which makes him look agitated), extremely large head, very black hair with a striking silvery back. The toes on both feet are often curled.
Born: May 9, 1985 at Woodland Park Zoo. Daughter of Pete. Mother of Nadiri and Akenji.
Weight: 255 (116 kg)
History: Reared in Group 1, Jumoke was moved out to avoid inbreeding. She was unable to rear her first offspring, Nadiri. She then proved to be a good mother to her second offspring (who now lives at another zoo), but surprised zoo staff by refusing to rear her third offspring, Akenji.
Distinguishing features: Black back, taller than Amanda, has a higher, more pointed crest. Jumoke is a good tool user and is very confident around Vip.
Juvenile Female

Adult Female
Born: February 12, 1996. Daughter of Congo and Jumoke. Half sister to Akenji.
Weight: 221 pounds (100 kg)
History: Jumoke was unable to raise Nadiri due to a traumatic delivery. Nadiri was hand-raised by zoo staff and gradually introduced at 5-1/2 months old to her adoptive gorilla family. Nadiri is gentle and playful with Akenji. She is very important genetically to the captive population of gorillas because she is the only living offspring of her father, Congo, who died two weeks after Nadiri's birth.
Characteristics: Nadiri often plays with zoo visitors through the viewing glass.
Born: July 24, 2001 at Woodland Park Zoo. Daughter of Vip and Jumoke. Adoptive mother is Nina.
Weight: 180 pounds (81.7 kg)
History:Jumoke was unwilling to raise Akenji, so she was partially hand-raised by zoo staff. She was slowly introduced to her adoptive gorilla family and formed close bonds.
Characteristics:She is the smallest member of the group. Very independent and confident.

Hempstead, NY - Hofstra Head Men's Lacrosse Coach Seth Tierney announced today the signing of eight scholastic student-athletes to National Letters of Intent to play lacrosse at the University beginning in the Fall of 2011. Included in the eight were seven Long Island natives who decided to stay home and play at Hofstra.
"We are extremely pleased with our recruiting class for the 2012 team," Tierney said. "We are excited with the talent and athleticism of our future student-athletes. We are quite pleased that we are bringing an outstanding student-athlete from North Carolina to Hofstra, and keeping seven of Long Island's best and brightest players at home."

"We used this design for our daughter's 16th movie/dinner birthday party invite. Pink, bright colors aren't her style so this card suited her perfectly. The pearl finish gave the card a nice sheen that added a feeling of girly, glamour. Thanks Tiny!"
"I actually found this item in the corporate section for a company casino night but personalized it in a way to use for my sister's bachelorette party! I actually work at a design firm but just didnt have time to think of something new and this was so quick and easy and the paper quality was great as well as the print. For the price, you can not beat this product! Everyone just loved the invites and it sets a great precedent for what will be a great weekend!"
"I received so many compliments on my party invitation. As I received rsvp's, people would add, "and that invitation was adorable!!" I will definitely order again. Also, customer service was great. They even helped me with the wording on the invite."

Hi all,
I've been away from the forum for years, but I thought it would be time to update my suit.
The number one thing I need is a new flight suit.
I'm working too much, so I have no time to work on one myself this time, so I would love to get one as screen accurate as possible for a budget of maybe 150$ or so...
Any ideas who to contact?

Arsène Wenger believes an Under-21 competition could be an excellent replacement for the Reserve League.
The structure of reserves and youth football is under scrutiny as top clubs explore ways to improve the development of their young players and the Arsenal manager has distanced himself from suggestions that 'B teams' should be permitted to play in the Championship.
Wenger admits that the 'feeder club' proposal would suit Arsenal but he prefers a different solution.
"It [having a B team] would suit us, yes, but there are two problems," he said.
"In the education of a young player you have until the age of 18 where he can play, let's say in the youth teams or in the Reserve League. Then the biggest problem, that they want to sort out here, is the problem between 18 and 21. Basically that is what you call the integration of the player into the first team.
"It would give you a better indication of how competitive a player can be at a certain level. Today we give our players out on loan to the lower leagues and that is not bad as well because they learn how to cope with different environments and if they manage to convince people that they can play in there they come back. So it's not bad in England.
"But at the moment the academy will be restructured and they will create an Under-21 league that I find quite interesting, with all the best teams in England together in an Under-21 league. That could basically be the replacement of the Reserve League that we have today."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

I apologise for the very newbie questions but i dont really have an information source to ask any questions so feeling a little lost a disorientated by the world of ESl, so any help and info is massively appreciated.
i'm from the UK and a native English speaker, I have completed an online tefl qualification (from i to i) and have BA degree.
My plan is to head to yangshuo in china, find a few months work to save a little money (enough to cover me to go to Japan) then with the experience i have travel to Japan to find work for a year.
Is it best to apply for jobs outside of the country and then let the school help with visas, or just turn up on a tourist visa and sort it after finding a job.
I already have a fairly comprehensive CV, but its designed to help me find an internship in England, does anyone know of any resources where i can get advice for tailoring my cv for esl jobs?
basically, im stuck as for whats my first/next step for getting a esl job?
Many thanks for any advice offered

Kim Kardashian's Christmas Blast from the Past
Stepping out for a beauty treatment, Kim Kardashian hit up a nail salon in Beverly Hills this morning (December 24).
Joined by her boyfriend Kanye West, the "Disaster Movie" dame got a mani pedi at Beverly Hills Nail Design while her man tended to some business affairs on his mobile phone.
And it sounds like KimYe will be so happy together for Christmas, as West has been invited over to the Kardashian Family shindig.
Kim's brother Rob Kardashian told press, "My mom has a really big Christmas party every year on Christmas Eve. We all sleep over at the house, and on Christmas morning we wake up at like 6 a.m. and do presents."
"They all make breakfast, all the girls. We watch basketball. It's a family day. Christmas is home, so everyone will be home and we'll all hang out together."
Enjoy the pictures of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West out in Beverly Hills (December 24).
