I am in love with Jesus!!!! He is my best friend also I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I like to go to the movies, I love worship music, I am a worshipper at heart. I like to laugh and have fun and enjoy life. This is the life that God has given us...right? Why not enjoy every bit of it.I always say...don't sweat the small things or the big thing that may happen in your life that may seem bad...the word of God says..."Casting ALL your care upon him; for He careth for you" (1 peter 5:7). So LIVE and not just exsist. Another saying I always say when the devil tries to come and steal my joy..."I love peace and peace loves me!"

To Cover or not to Cover
Hey Guys,
Well Its Official Im taking a week off work in late July to redo my bathroom. Ive got a few issues that I need to take care of first.
The shower is against an outside wall with a window right in the center of the side of the it. I am not sure the best way to deal with it.
Here are my options:
1. Cover up the window with a 3 piece insert.
Pros: Easiest, most waterproof. wont have to mess with outside of house CONS: Window could start leaking and I would never know.
2. Leave the window and tile the shower.
Pros: Wont have to mess with window, which means no messing with the outside of the house. CONS: Dont know how to tile.
3. Cut a whole in the insert. and trim it out.
CONS: Dont want to have to cut a whole in the shower.
Ive also thought about glass bock, and tile, and a few other things.
What would u guys do? I want to do it right.
Plenty of options--all have drawbacks.
One is to install a vinyl window --then use Azek PVC trim boards for jamb extenders--then tile.
Glass block works,but might look wrong on the face of your home.
Skip the three piece surround--tile is the only way to meet the window properly.----Mike---
Glad to see your helping me again! it seems like when ever I need some advice, I find you. Lol Thanks.
Im leaning toward tile too, Never done tile before though. Im a little worried. I see alot of people doing it tho. You think it can be done by a new guy?
Tile work can be done by someone with common sense and a bit of hand eye coordination.
There are tons of threads and blogs on this subject.
1.Get the walls flat---sister in new studs where needed.
2,update the mixer valve--it's your only chance to do it easily.
3.Add a cement backer board---I like Durrock,but there are a lot of others that work just as well.
4,Trim in that damn window with something waterproof.
5. Get a bucket of Hydroban or Red Guard and waterproof around the window area---do the whole enclosure --I would.
6 Lay out your tile so you have a nice looking wall with a cut at the tub(they are never level)
Also need nice pieces around that window--Spend a bit of time on the layout---slender slices of tile look bad--
7. Use a wet saw---there are a lot of very usable cheap saws available--
8.set the tile with a modified thinset (powdered) The mastic in a bucket is water soluble--new formulas in recent years make that stuff a mistake to use---and it's very expensive.
Pictures always help---there are a number of ways to treat the window--post a picture and someone will offer suggestions.
In some cases, the window is the only ventilation. It should not be removed without replacement venting.
A ceiling fan will likely be required if you cover the window or you're asking for all kinds of moisture problems.
What type of window do you have there? If it is wood, I would not leave it as is in a shower. The amount of water hitting it on a daily basis would be asking for trouble with rot and water damage.
Tile is the way to go.
I agree with other comments that tiling is the way to go for this remodel. It will look the best from both the outside and inside, and there is no real need to cover up a window.
I'm a handyman / homeowner who has tackled many projects on my own and learned from doing it and making mistakes, asking others for help, and researching and planning; you have to start somewhere right?
With that said, you can definitely do tiling even if you haven't done it before. Just like oh'mike said, you want to make sure the area is properly prepped for tiling and that you have the right tools to do it. That will make your experience tiling much better.
Good Luck!
Holy Crap Guys!
Thanks for all the responses. I will try and get a picture of the shower up tommorow, (my camera is charging right now)
Mike, How thick do you need to coat the red gaurd? and can you thinset right over top of it?
DangerMouse, It is currently the only ventalation, but I am going to install a vent fan too.
Bloodsense, it is a new vinyl window. no worries there.
Thanks Jason!! I've got a lot of research to do.
Red Guard takes two to three coats---Use a cheap paint brush and a 6" 'hot dog' roller.
I chop the handle off on the brush so I can leave it in the bucket and close the lid.(Washing that stuff off is hopeless)---Mike----
Thanks Again Mike! your not allowed to leave until I get my project done! then ill buy you a beer!:thumbup:
You are fast---Hey,I'm hungry--What's for supper---I'll be right over!:laughing:
1 Attachment(s)
Well as mike suggested here are some pictures of what im working with.
the shower is a standard 29x60" The windows is smack dab in the middle.

Can Bakit hindi ka crush ng crush mo gross more than P100M?
By Walden Sadiri M. Belen
Published: July 27, 2013
Xian Lim, Bb. Joyce Bernal and Kim Chiu
Xian Lim, Bb. Joyce Bernal and Kim Chiu
For its on-going 20th anniversary celebration, Star Cinema offers Pinoy moviegoers its third film adaptation of a book - Bakit Hindi Ka Crush Ng Crush Mo by Ramon Bautista. An adaptation of an informative and comedy book, the film features the first movie team-up of Kim Chiu and Xian Lim.
Given the combination of the popularity of the book and the film's love team, Bakit Hindi Ka Crush Ng Crush Mo may even surpass the box-office receipts of Star Cinema's past two book-to-film projects, Bata, Bata, Paano Ka Ginawa?' and Dekada 70 with reported grosses of P89 million in 1998 and with over P92 million in 2002, respectively.
Mico del Rosario of Star Cinema explained that their latest movie pays homage to what they have done before, the film versions of the books Dekada 70 and Bata, Bata Paano Ka Ginawa.
This time around we did another one pero comedy. Siguro nag-full circle ang Star Cinema ngayon kaya ang mga offerings na makikita new flavors at ibang-iba, he said.
Carmi Raymundo, Creative Producer of Star Cinema, added, Matagal na kaming gumawa ng ganito at masasabi kong ibang-iba ang flavor nito sa mga nagawa na namin especially mga romantic comedies. Kung baga bukod sa may sipa pero nakaka-in-love. Kung baga yung tono nga ni Ramon Bautista upfront at prangka. Sa totoo lang tatawa ka habang na-iin-love!
Helmed by Bb. Joyce Bernal from the screenplay of Irene Emma Villamor, the director shared that she came in only knowing that she's making a Kim Chiu and Xian Lim movie. It was later on that Star Cinema decided that Kim and Xian will be in the film version of Bakit Hindi Ka Crush Ng Crush Mo.
According to Joyce, they even incorporated the author in the movie as a narrator of sorts like in the Tom Cruise film Jerry Maguire.
Noong una, gumawa na kami ng kwento base sa kanilang dalawa then saka pa lang dumating yung libro. Noong dumating yung libro nag-iba yung flavor, dialogue and situations. Nag-iba po lahat pero more or less yung backbone ng story ganun pa rin. Bale yung premise namin ganun pa rin. Pero nang nabasa ko yung libro ni Ramon napaka-upfron, napaka-tapang, napaka-totoo so pumunta po kami sa part na yun, Joyce described.
Working with Kim and Xian, Joyce explained that moviegoers will enjoy and appreciate the movie more because her actors delivered well.
Honestly hindi naman ito tungkol kay Xian and Kim. Tungkol ito sa pelikula at sa libro ni Ramon and dahil nagawa nila ng tama, nagawa nila ng maganda saka pumasok yung 'ah tama nga na si Xiam at Kim Chiu nga ito.' Talagang may chemistry sila kahit na siguro friends sila o kung ano man. Sa pelikula may pag-asa, may hope na maging sila, she said.
As for Kim and Xian, they both agreed that moviegoers will relate to, laugh and also learn a lot of life lessons from Bakit Hindi Ka Crush Ng Crush Mo.
Kim plays the brainy and aesthetically unique Sandy Veloso who in the middle of her mourning from a break-up meets Xian's Alex Prieto, her handsome boss who will transform her life for the better.
Also in the movie are Pokwang, Mylene Dizon, Feddie Webb, Kean Cipriano, EJ Jallorina, Cholo Baretto, Marni Lapus, Cheska Inigo, Cecil Paz, Diane Medina, Sarah Gaugler, Jojit Lorenzo, yan Boyce, Lilia Cuntapay, Tonton Gutierrez and Angeline Quinto.

Kim Chiu deals with loss her waygently, quietly
By Allan Policarpio
Philippine Daily Inquirer, July 29, 2013
KIM NEVER once thought of leaving show biz.
This year has got to be one of the toughest for Kim Chiu.
........... Kims search for her estranged mother didnt end quite the way she hoped it would. Last month, the 23-year-old stars mother, Louella, passed away after suffering a brain aneurysm.
The recent press con for Kims coming comedy film, Bakit Hindi Ka Crush ng Crush Mo? was one of Kims first media appearances after that loss. And though she appeared upbeat for the most part of the event, Kim still seemed uneasy when asked about that trying moment in her life, and the intrigues that came with it.
A struggle
She admitted, however, that the last two days of filming the movie was a struggle. I needed to smile and be funny. Some of the scenes that required me to be over-the-top [hilarious] took a lot of takes, Kim told a group of entertainment reporters.
But it was something that Kim knew she had to tough out. Fortunately, she said, her coworkers were all considerate enough not to bring up her mothers death. she related, I was really glad because I felt that respect prevailed on set. They would always ask me, Kaya mo pa ba?
Asked how she managed to go through her scenes, her reply was simpleshe had to. It was work. I didnt want to dwell [on what I felt], because it was going to affect the outcome of the movie, she pointed out.
In her mourning, Kim also had to deal with the bile of bashers on social media, who criticized her for flying to Thailand to shoot a commercial during her mothers wake. The deal was signed two years ago, she said; she couldnt back out. She returned to the country just in time for the burial.
What was going through her head at that time? Id rather not talk about what happened, she said. There are challenges you have to face every day, and Im happy to have overcome those. I was very lucky to have people who didnt give up on mefamily, friends, coworkers. Sa kanila ako kumakapit.
Show biz child
Although depressed, she said, the thought of giving up work never crossed her mind. She realized that show biz had become her life. Dito na rin ako lumaki, said Kim, who first gained nationwide recognition through the reality show Pinoy Big Brother: Teen Edition, which she won in 2006.
However, asked how well she was doing right now, Kim paused, then politely begged off again. Thats not related to our movie. The important thing is that we did our best and finished the movie, Kim said. From time to time an ABS-CBN staffer behind Kim would tap her back, and discreetly tell her how to replyor if she should reply at allwhen a controversial question popped up.
Amid the unwarranted bashing Kim received online, M... posted on Twitter a message, which not a few assumed was addressed to the formers Internet haters: You dont know her You just know her name.
Asked for a reaction to M...s perceived defense of her, Kim paused and shot a swift glance at the handler. Then she said, Lets not talk about her.
As for the rumored romance between her and costar Xian Lim, Kim wasnt very keen on putting any label on whatever relationship they may have. She merely said she was grateful for Xians unwavering support.
It doesnt matter whether or not were together. Wala rin namang mawawala o madadagdagan sa inyo. Whats important is that we make people happy, she said.
Based on Ramon Bautistas novel of the same title, Star Cinemas Bakit Hindi Ka Crush ng Crush Mo? is Kims first crack at what she called bonggang-bonggang comedy. She plays Sandy Veloso, an intelligent and hardworking 24-year-old virgin.
Directed by Joyce Bernal, the movie opens in cinemas tomorrow.

Kim, Xian admit they're exclusively seeing each other
Posted at 07/30/2013
MANILA - For the first time, on-screen partners Kim Chiu and Xian Lim admitted in a television interview that they are exclusively seeing each other.
In the July 30 episode of "Kris TV," host Kris Aquino asked the two Kapamilya stars about the real status of their relationship.
"Right now kasi it's not... Sinabi kasi namin, when people ask us, it's unfair to even put a label on it. It's more of nandito kami para sa isa't isa," Lim said.
This prompted Aquino to ask: "Obviously, you're exclusive?"
To this, Chiu replied: "Pwede na."
Lim agreed, saying: "Oo."
Despite their admission, Lim continued to express discomfort about putting a label to his relationship with Chiu.
"But I always say it's unfair to put a label," he said. "I don't know... I feel it's something that is private."
Chiu, for her part, said she is happy with their current "setup."
"Oo, masaya naman kami. Walang pressure na nagaganap or walang obligations," she said.
"Ako kasi, ngayon ine-enjoy ko muna. Na kung siya (Lim) talaga, gusto ko munang makilala niya 'yung family ko," added Chiu, who noted that Lim is already friends with her siblings.
Chiu and Lim first worked as a "love team" in the defunct ABS-CBN series "My Binondo Girl." They went on to star in the recently concluded soap "Ina, Kapatid, Anak" along with Maja Salvador and Enchong Dee.
The two stars are currently promoting their first film together, "Bakit Hindi Ka Crush ng Crush Mo?" which will hit theaters nationwide on Wednesday (July 31).

Kim Chiu and Xian Lim still mum on the status of their relationship
7/28/2013 by: Patty Ramirez
Sa live interview ni Xian Lim at Kim Chiu sa The Buzz nitong Linggo ay nireveal ng dalawa kung paano sila kung may crush sila in relation sa pelikula nilang Bakit Di Ka Crush Ng Crush Mo? na showing na sa July 31.
Kapag may crush daw si Kim ay iniiwasan niya ito. Lumalayo ako kasi nakakahiya. Ang kapal naman ng face mo may crush ka, sasabihin mo pa Hi Crush! natatawang kwento ng young star. Natameme si Kim though nang tanungin ng The Buzz host na si Toni Gonzaga bakit kay Xian ay hindi siya lumayo.
Naalala naman ni Xian yung elementary days niya kung saan ay nireject siya ng kanyang crush. Sa kin naman, hindi naman sa di ko na makakalimutan, yung mga elementary days tapos may crush ako na made me feel so ugly, di naman mataba, andun ako sa awkward stage yung di mo pa alam yung gagawin mo sa sarili mo. Yung nanggagaya lang.
Naikwento din ni Kim ang kanyang unang puppy love. Yung una kong puppy love. Noong high school. Bakit ganun ang nangyari? Magdyowa lang kami pag nasa school. School lang, recess, lunch, yun lang. Yun pala yung mali dun. Pagkatapos ng school year wala na pala.
Malaking impluwensya daw ang kanilang director sa movie na si Bb. Joyce Bernal sa character ni Kim na si Sandy. Sinubukan ko and ayun na-enjoy ko naman, sabi ni Kim. Lahat ng babaeng walang confidence, akala nila panget sila but theres something beautiful sa each and every one of us, dagdag pa nito. Si Sandy kasi matalino, mapagbigay, maalaga at mapagmahal. Sobra siyang mapagmahal. Siyempre ang daming babae ngayon na magmahal at di sila nakakatanggap ng something in return. Dito sa pelikulang to malalaman nila yung tamang proseso ng pagmamahal.
Marami din daw natutunan si Kim nang malaman niyang hindi siya crush ng crush niya sa movie. Siyempre tinanggap. Tapos nagmove on. Kasi bawat isa sa atin di naman yung pinicture natin na siya na yung kasama ko habang buhay. Hindi eh. May iba dyan na para sa yo. Ano man ang itsura mo, may lalaki o babae na karapat dapat sa yo. Wag ka lang mawalan ng pag-asa. Theres always a rainbow after the rain.
Napunta naman ang tanungan tungkol sa relasyon ng dalawa in real life. Nagreact si Xian sa sinabi ni Kim last week sa interview niya with Boy Abunda na hindi siya iniwanan ng ka-love team sa mga pagsubok na pinagdaanan nito. Siyempre naman lahat tayo we face challenges in our lives so dito sabi ko naman kay Kim, Ill always be there for her. If you need someone to talk to andito lang ako, sabi ng aktor.
Iniwasan naman ni Kim at Xian ang tanong ni Toni kung ano na nga ba ang estado ng kanilang relasyon ngayon. Sagot lamang ni Xian, We love our job, we just do what we have to do. What we have to do is we have to be good in our movie di ba? Kaya dapat suportahan ng lahat.

Citation: N/A Interpretive Summary:
Technical Abstract: SGP99 was designed to implement satellite data and remote sensing techniques to accurately estimate soil moisture and temperature. The advantage of using remote sensing techniques versus ground-based measurements is that satellite data have the ability to carry out observations on a variety of spatial and temporal scales. Before satellite data can be used for modeling purposes, we must make sure that remote sensing measurements can be validated by ground-based measurements. Surface temperature and soil moisture changes during a dry-down period show some distinct relationships with different types of vegetation. For instance, this study found a rangeland field and a wheat field warm up at approximately the same rate at all three temperature depths, surface, 1 cm, and 5 cm. It was also observed that a fallow field, by far, has the steepest warming trend of land cover. However, all the fields, even, when considering different types of vegetation, show an increase in surface and subsurface temperature and a decrease in soil moisture during a dry-down period.

The graceful Ibizan Hound retains great hunting instinct, using his acute senses of hearing and smell to locate small animals, and relishing the opportunity to chase anything that moves. Unlike most Sighthounds, he barks when chasing. He is gentle, mild-mannered, even-tempered and loyal, and makes a quiet, trustworthy house pet.
As an independent and athletic dog, the Ibizan Hound needs daily exercise in a safe area. Ideal exercise allows the dog to stretch out at full speed, but his needs can also be met with long walks or jogs on leash, combined with an occasional chance to run full out. The Ibizan is not kept as an outside dog and he is a skilled jumper, which should be taken into consideration when designing an enclosure. The smooth coat requires only occasional brushing, whereas the wire coat requires weekly brushing as well as occasional hand-plucking of dead hairs.

The Ibizan Hound probably shares the same roots as the Pharaoh Hound, bearing uncanny resemblance to the dogs depicted in Egyptian tombs and to the jackal god Anubis. Phoenician sea traders may have taken the dogs to the island of Ibiza in ancient times, where they remained in relative seclusion. Ibiza saw many rulers through the ages, coming under the auspices of the Egyptians, Chaldeans, Carthaginians, Romans, Vandals, Arabs and, most recently, Spanish. Hannibal was born on a neighboring island, and some say the Ibizan Hound was the dog that accompanied him across the Alps. With little outside influence, the dogs of Ibiza remain uncontaminated by crosses to other breeds. The hard conditions on the island imposed stringent selection by islanders because only the best rabbit hunters could be allowed to procreate or, for that matter, survive. These factors produced a hardy, true breeding dog that is little changed from its ancestral stock. The first Ibizan Hound came to America in the 1950s. The breed's striking appearance aroused much attention but has failed to attract a great number of pet owners. The Ibizan Hound gradually gained enough popularity to warrant AKC recognition in 1979, but he remains one of the rarer breeds.Copyright © 1998, 2005 by Barron's Educational Series, Inc. based on

I don't trust this "review" at all. READ COMMENT
Thank you for your response as I was going to make an appointment with a local Doctor for this procedure, but having read so many negative (and truthful sounding) comments, I've changed my mind. READ COMMENT
I meant, did the bleeding stop quickly or was it bad at the time of the procedure. Thanks. READ COMMENT
I'm concerned that you were punctured somehow by the machine and had bleeding. Did the bleeding stop and do you have scaring from the procedure? Also, did your Doctor tell you why you were punctured? Thanks. READ COMMENT
I understand as that's where I have the worst fat deposits, despite diet and daily exercise. I keep reading that Zeltiq is only effective for the trunk and abdomen. Did your Doctor even mention this? READ COMMENT


text: I joke with Palaniuk about the roller coaster ride that has been his Elite career so far. He seems to be either right in the mix or way, way out of it. This year, unfortunately, he's mostly been out of the hunt. Unless he can win here (or at an Open or the final Elite), he'll miss the 2014 Classic, and that would sting. He's been a strong contender in two of the last three Classics, and in typical Palaniuk fashion, he finished near the bottom in the other one. I call him "Reggie" (as in Jackson) sometimes, because it's either a home run or a strikeout for him at this stage of his career. Looking at his numbers throughout his Elite career, I can tell you that he catches fewer bass than the average Elite angler, but the ones he catches are bigger than average. Catching big ones gives you the chance to win occasionally, but catching limits day after day keeps you consistent and qualifies you for Classics.

Mimicking charisma
Page Tools
A lot of people use a single word to define that feeling of warmth, charm, personal impact a person just has or hasnt got - charisma.
Some believe that it is something you are either lucky enough to have or not. But as Arnold Palmer famously said when asked about his lucky shots from the bunkers. "Its a funny thing, the more I practise the luckier I get."
Practise makes perfect Winston Churchill, like many leaders, was not a natural public speaker. In one of his first speeches to Parliament in 1904 he delivered it without notes and had to cut it short as he become totally lost.
After he sat down in embarrassment, he was quoted as saying that this would never happen again. After that he prepared relentlessly for every speech. For every minute of delivery he spent an hour preparing. It was not unusual for him to prepare for 30 hours on one speech.
Although a lot of research indicates how you say it has more immediate impact than what you say - what you say will be remembered for a great deal longer. So make sure you are clear about what your intention is. If it is to be helpful and honest, people will forgive many shortcomings in delivery, body language and tone.
On the whole, people are pretty good at picking up intentions. We generally know when someone is lying, or being economical with the truth.
However it is good practice not to totally rely on your good intentions. You may have the best intention in the world but if the audience is not in tune with you they may not recognise this.
This could be due to all sorts of reasons - some history with you or something currently going on in the workplace that you know nothing about. If this is the case, the effect you have on your audience may not be the same as your intention and you will need to rethink.
Walking the walk
Studies show leaders appear more powerful by acting as they think leaders should act. The fake it till you make it process. The more you act like a strong, powerful person the easier it is for people to regard you as one and the easier it is for you to become one.
If you have someone in mind as a role model that makes this process even easier. Copy what they do when they enter a room or answer a question. Suddenly after a few weeks of acting authoritatively you realise you are not acting anymore. Within a few more weeks you will start adapting and developing your own style.
In terms of public speaking, there are a number of simple, straightforward tips that can make a huge difference. From the start you need to take control of the environment. This means controlling everything you can control. Both the physical aspects (lighting, numbers, seating arrangements, screen, handouts) and the non-physical aspects (introductions, questioning policy, number of slides, timing, your appearance, knowledge of the audience, your preparation, posture).
Expecting the unexpected Do not be distracted by oh, itll be okay - its the same as last time". Get them to show you, check and have back ups for everything. Also recognise that even when you have done everything you can, things will happen that you have not thought about. When that fire alarm goes off accidentally, or the police rush in chasing an armed robber, adapt and do not start thinking about who to blame. Well, not for the time being at least.
The vital part of this is non-physical. Make sure your introduction (if you are having one) is correct and more importantly is what you want. If you are making a speech in front of 500 people do not let yourself be introduced with: "Tonight we have someone making their first speech in front of a large audience so please be gentle on them."
Tempting though it may seem to get some audience sympathy it just will not work. In a classic experiment two sets of students were given identical lectures and told that the first lecturer was new, and the second an expert. Guess which one received vastly better ratings?
There are some leaders who, I admit, do have that special something. But I guess they have worked hard at developing other aspects of themselves and I really believe anyone can learn to lead.
The outside part is easy (well relatively). The hard part is inside - the intention and the vision. If these are solid then with hard work, the rest will follow.

Things We Miss
Things we miss:
- Good wine in the form of cold, white Sauvignon Blancs from New Zealand and deep, rich red Rioja and Ribera del Dueros from Spain and Sangioveses from Italy. For now, we must settle for an occasional splurge on Moldovan or Crimean Cabernets. They never talked about these kinds of sacrifices in on the Peace Corps website!
- Gulf seafood – all of it. Apalachicola oysters, stone crabs, blue crabs, shrimp fresh off the boat, grouper, snapper, amberjack, scallops and everything else. So good, yet so far away.
- Easily accessible bathrooms, the type which don't require planning your liquid intake hours in advance to ensure you'll be in the right place when you just have to go.
- Hugging our nephews and niece and watching them grow.
- Tour de France daily coverage (thanks dad for the emails!).
- Hurricane watching.
- Making beer and cheese.
- Baseball games and keeping score.
- And of course most of all, all of our family and friends.
Things we don't miss (at least yet):
- Driving. Especially commuting to and from work in traffic.
- Drip coffee. The German-based Jacobs instant coffee really isn't so bad once you get used to it. Maybe it is the name? And when we need a fix, we can have an espresso or cappuccino at one of many cafes in Vinnitsa.
- Hot summer weather in Florida.
- Air conditioning in our apartment. Most of the time, you just don't need it here. Although it would be nice on the trams and trolleybuses in the summertime.
- The dryer. Let's face it – we're lucky to have a washing machine.
- Television. It's been a pleasure to be without, to be honest. We've read some wonderful books, ranging from historical non-fictions like The Founding Brothers, classics like Boris Pasternak's Dr. Zhivago, and modern tales like The Kite Runner, Casino Moscow and Siberian Dreams. In fact, we highly recommend the last two as fascinating reads for anyone wanting a snapshot of life in the post-Soviet world. We're saving the big classics like War and Peace and The Brothers Karamazov as a distracton for the long winter ahead.

At 6-3 1/2, 210 pounds with good speed and all-around athletic ability, Auburn's coaches made an early scholarship offer to Mitchell as an offensive player who could line up as an H-back/wingback for Coach Gus Malzahn's Tigers.
Last week the Opelika High junior and his father Mario, who played college football at Troy, stopped by the Auburn football complex to visit with Malzahn and offensive coordinator Rhett Lashlee.
"It was exciting and I had a lot of fun," he said of his short trip to the AU campus. "It was just a great experience. Auburn was my first SEC official offer and it was exciting.
"They talked about how I would be used in the offense, the approach they are planning to take for the next few years and what the are trying to bring back to Auburn," said Mitchell, who helped OHS reach the state championship game at Jordan-Hare Stadium where the Bulldogs fell to Hoover playing before a crowd estimated at more than 40,000 fans, many of them cheering for Opelika.
Mitchell said it is exciting to get early offers from Auburn, Duke, Tulane, Rice, North Carolina and Wisconsin, but noted that he is planning to keep working hard to develop as a player despite the early attention.
As a junior Mitchell played a variety of positions. He caught 26 passes for 365 yards and led the team in rushing touchdowns with 14 playing running back, tight end and linebacker.

Transit strike expected to hit Toronto on Monday
By John McCrank
TORONTO (Reuters) - Commuters in Canada's biggest city will likely face a long, slow trip to work on Monday morning, as a strike by members of Toronto's main transit union looks virtually certain, a source close to the contract talks said on Friday.
The person, who asked not to be identified, said talks between the Amalgamated Transit Union and the Toronto Transit Commission had broken down.
"The TTC, as early as this morning, has told the union there is no more," the source said.
"They are not putting anything on the table and this follows the union's press conference where they said if there is not an acceptable offer by Sunday at 4 p.m., there will be a strike on Monday morning. So, it looks bad."
The TTC carries more than 1.5 million passengers every weekday.
The Amalgamated Transit Union, Local 113, which represents nearly 9,000 TTC employees, said the main issues are benefits and compensation.
It said its workers have a substandard benefits package compared with Toronto city workers, and that TTC employees are paid less than those at other transit authorities in smaller cities surrounding Toronto.
The union source said the top mediator in the province, Reg Pearson, who has been involved in negotiations between the TTC and its union in the past, has been called in to help get the two sides talking again. Continued...

A contractor tied to disgraced former Rep. Randy "Duke" Cunningham describes America's congressional appropriations process as little more than a shakedown.
WASHINGTON—In 1992, Brent R. Wilkes rented a suite at the Hyatt Hotel a few blocks from the Capitol. In his briefcase was a stack of envelopes for a half-dozen congressmen, each packet containing up to $10,000 in checks.
Mr. Wilkes had set up separate meetings with the lawmakers hoping to win a government contract, and he planned to punctuate each pitch with a campaign donation. But his hometown congressman, Representative Bill Lowery of San Diego, a Republican, told him that presenting the checks during the sessions was not how things were done, Mr. Wilkes recalled.
Instead, Mr. Wilkes said, Mr. Lowery taught him the right way to do it: hand over the envelope in the hallway outside the suite, at least a few feet away.

Blairsville winery goes up for sale
BURRELL TOWNSHIP — The Walnut Hill Winery in Burrell Township is going up for sale, although an exact sales date and who may buy it are unknown.
Samantha Crissman runs the business with her daughter, Jamie, but because of physical ailments, they have decided to sell.
"The work is physically challenging," Crissman said. "It has been our life 24/7."
Although she is unsure of the exact closing date, she trusts that when the time comes, she'll know. She also plans to finish out the scheduled summer events.
"I have no idea when we will close," she said. "But I'll know when I know."
Crissman said she will miss the winery, and she will also miss the customer base that she has connected with on a personal level.
"We really love the people that we have met," she said. "We contact about 4,000 customers each week, so we have a very good following."
Crissman said she hopes that whoever purchases the winery will "take it to the next level."
"I hope that whoever buys the winery will love it as much as me," she said.
She said she also hopes the new owner will continue to support local businesses run by women.
"I love supporting local businesses owned by women," she said. "I sell products made by local businesswomen in my store."
As she looks back on her time as the owner of this quaint winery, some of the highlights were the events held there such as bridal and baby showers.
"It is so nice to see their faces when everything goes well," she said.
Her time as owner winding to a close, Crissman is looking ahead to spending time with her kids and enjoying some quality quiet time.

A slim external battery case for my iPhone 5, which I can change out to a traditional case when I don't need the juice? Yes please! Let's look at the NuCharge by iKit. The Kickstarter campaign ends Thursday, so check it out asap if you're interested!
iKit, and it's flagship product (and only at the moment) is the product company outlet for Shark Design, a new company based in Miami, FL. Oliver, the founder of the company, and a UK designer, has been designing Apple accessories for 3 years. His Kickstarter video tells us (a bit drily, ha, in true UK fashion) he felt it was time to branch out to making his own - enter iKit, from Shark Design.
In the Box
The box for the NuCharge is a sturdy and noticeable thing - a cardboard box in white, black, and "brushed aluminum" is further housed in a rubbery outer case. Although their Kickstarter states Shark Design and iKit are based in Miami, FL, the box proudly displays the British flag and "Designed by iKit in London." Welcome stateside, good sir!
In the box, you'll find a micro USB to standard USB cable (for charging the NuCharge - no AC adapter is provided), the "snap case," the battery attachement, and a "fashion case" attachment. In the pre-production unit we received, the fashion case was brushed aluminum.
The NuCharge is designed well - and offers the user options. A smoky-clear base "snap case" attaches to your iPhone 5 by snapping into place, protecting the back and sides of your iPhone 5 well. The display is left easy to access and unaddressed by the case. On the back of the base are a few slots, similar to if you ever removed the back of your iPhone 4/4S. This is a bit of the uniqueness of the NuCharge.
You can slide any of the NuCharge's attachements directly onto this base case. The (extremely slim!) 1900 mAh battery pack slides directly into place, and when you're done you can remove it and slide the fashion case on for a clean and protective case.
The battery pack is obviously the focus here, and it works well. I charged it up and tested a few times - and while it didn't fully charge my dead iPhone (got into the 90 percents though), it was able to bring a 20% iPhone back to full health in a bit over an hour.
There are a few very cool features to the NuCharge - one of my favorite being the Lightning connector. It's actually built into the battery pack, with a flexible cord and a hiding place on the bottom of the pack. When not in use, a flush fit hides the Lightning connector easily in the battery pack. When you need to power up, pull the connector out, and attach to your iPhone 5's Lightning port. The flexible connector is just long enough to reach perfectly, without having to do any fancy maneuvering.
Charging the NuCharge is simple - connect your iPhone 5, and use the provided micro USB cable (you can connect it to a computer or even your iPhone 5 power adapter) - it will charge both the iPhone 5 AND the NuCharge simultaneously. I simply did so while I was sleeping.
You'll also notice the kickstand - bringing your iPhone 5 to a comfortable viewing angle for videos. The kickstand also fits flush into the battery pack's silicone, and in production will be made out of "unbreakable" aluminum.
Another HUGE improvement over other battery packs - the audio port is easily accessible, and any pair of headphones that would normally fit your iPhone 5 still fits fine.
One of the best things about this accessory is it's support for "fashion cases." When you're done charging the device, you can simply slide off the battery pack, toss it in your bag, and slide on one of the fashion cases iKit provides. There are already a wide variety - white, black, brushed aluminum, and a half dozen other brushed aluminum colors. iKit also has a bunch of colors available in "brushed leather" which has a similar brushed look to the aluminum, but with genuine leather. Very easy to customize your case with iKit, and keep things fresh by having a few colors to swap out.
The NuCharge also comes with a microfiber cleaning cloth. A 4-dot blue LED on the side lets you know your battery life with the press of a button. In our pre-production unit, I had a couple issues getting the iPhone 5 to recognize the device was attached, and pressing the battery life button for a couple seconds seemed to "wake up" the battery pack, to get the iPhone charging again. This didn't occur every time, but was noticeable.
Price / Conclusion
At $79 (available only through Kickstarter - free shipping - at the moment, shipping in April), this is very well priced - competitive with other battery solutions, plus you're getting the added bonus of a standard case with this. The convenience and attention to design in the NuCharge makes it our favorite battery case.
The Kickstarter campaign ends Thursday! Make sure to check it out asap if you're interested.
We're giving the iKit NuCharge 4 leaves. A few charging issues will hopefully be ironed out in production; the overall design and features of the NuCharge are thought out and executed well.
As is customary for an MMi review, iKit is hooking up our readers with free stuff! (Thanks guys!) You're getting a brand new, in-box NuCharge with a brushed aluminum fashion case. No microfiber cloth is included.

AR Training: Zemoga Responds To PSFK Future Of Health Report
An augmented reality application that helps doctors and other healthcare providers train using 3D animated simulations.
AR Training
Augmented reality's most revolutionary applications have resulted from advances in mobile technology, which can point to potential benefits for the healthcare industry. Doctors and other healthcare providers simply download and install software to their smartphones that render printed trackers, or coded digital patterns.
Augmented reality is especially useful in medical training. For instance, a healthcare provider (HCP) can download a program or application to his or her phone, which presents a basic menu of medical procedures for them to choose from.
When the HCP selects one of the procedures the first screen will show where the tracking patterns must be located on the body of the patient. Once the patterns are applied, the training simulation can start. The training program will display an animated simulation in 3D, showing exactly how, when, and where the different maneuvers must be executed. The user can change the point of view of the simulation by moving the mobile device, move forwards or backwards through the animation, as well as view additional notes during specific points of the procedure.
The HCP can also use the tracking patterns to record him or herself completing the training. Later, the user can compare his or her individual execution against the animated simulation and detect possible mistakes to be corrected.
Taking it a step further, augmented reality can layer the recorded training over the simulation, and can be hidden or shown at any time to facilitate the comparison.
PSFK's Future of Health Report shines a light on innovation occurring within the health and wellness space around the world. This document brings together both literal and lateral inspiration to provide a framework within which businesses can begin to contemplate the issues facing UNICEF and community health workers. These issues include limited resources, technological constraints, lack of health education, and limited access to timely and relevant health and wellness information.
In an effort to start this exciting conversation, PSFK challenged advertising and design agencies from around the world to react to the Future of Health report. They were tasked with developing concepts in the form of products, services or communications that addressed one or more of the needs set forth by UNICEF. The end result of this initial phase of ideation is more than 40 innovative concepts.

Lately I have been getting into RC and I have been taking shots in between my races. Nothing too serious but it has been bringing in some good income from racers wanting large prints of their truck/car. I am still learning and trying to get away from center heavy action shots. Anyway here are a few samples.
Little oof on this one but I like it anyway

Rory MacDonald workout routine? He's really strong
I was wondering if anybody had an idea of Rory MacDonald's workout rountine? I ask because he is really strong. Stronger than most males in their late 20's, and he's only 23. He seems to overpower almost everybody, not just with technique, but with physical strength.
What is this specimen's secret? Is he lifting weights? Kettlebells? Or hardcore bodyweight stuff?
In before 'Rory is taking steroids'.
^Let me do the honors...
First I'd recommend some stanozolol and throw some HGH in there. If you wanna get rid of the backne cortisol is just the thing.
In before 'Rory is taking steroids and you know it!'.
P.S. To the OP, it´s perfectly normal to be stronger in the early 20's than in the late 20's if you work out since a young age.
Paging Dr. ROFLCopter....
Rory's super strong, I just want to know if he works out with weights or if it's purely bodyweight and stuff.
Rory was weak as **** when he was a lightweight.
They didn't call him "The Waterboy" for no reason.
I knew dudes in my HS that were stronger than this dude in HS and they certainly aren't specimens like he is. And they play football in college.
I would say Rory looking strong is due to him training *smarter not harder* with some of the best in the business at cultivating wrestling strength.
GSP and Rory manhandle ppl and look really strong because they have the best training methods for developing that type of strength. Anyone could develop the strength GSP and Rory have if they only knew how.
Developing that kind of strength isn't as easy as doing squats or running a lot. You're using different muscle groups. If a person took the time to study human anatomy and recognized which muscle groups were most important in successfully executing a takedown. Then, experimented to figure out how to best target and develop those muscle groups to their full potential -- they could probably enjoy a big advantage over others who aren't willing to go to those lengths.
I think at some point GSP and his trainers may well have done exactly that. That's the reason why GSP's legs are so massive in comparison to everyone else's and its also the reason why GSP and Rory have such dominant wrestling and top game.

John Duffield has become the latest public face of the global crunch, as his New Star Asset Management outfit admitted today that investors are pulling out their investments in huge volumes.
Duffield's success in building up fund management firms and falling out with his employers has already given him a high profile.
The cult of Duffield helped him build New Star from scratch in 2001 after he fell out with the German owners of Jupiter, his previous firm.
So crucial is publicity to a fund management group's success, that Duffield will not be impressed with the startling admission from his company about the current state of affairs. It will also inflict pain on him personally. The 30% fall in the share price will have the same impact on his paper wealth as he owns almost 8% of the company while the near halving of the dividend could curb his cash flow this year.
Even so, he will remain very rich. As well as making an estimated £200m from the sale of Jupiter, he took £150m out of New Star last March when he cut his personal stake from 20%. Well known throughout the City for his V-neck sweaters, Duffield is far from flashy; his frugality demonstrated by his M&S pullovers and Ford Mondeo car. His wealth is illustrated, though, by his farms near Oxford and Newbury and flat in Knightsbridge, the plush central London borough which is home to his favourite resuarant Signor Sassi. Duffield is clearly a creature of habit, having lunch and dinner in the cosy Italian every day he is in the City.
Once married to Vivien, daughter of the late Sir Charles Clore, the retail and property tycoon, he has two adult children.
He is said to work a four day week, preferring 11am starts rather than the punishing early-morning routines at other City firms. His office does not have a computer and he is said not to carry a mobile phone. Even so, he is so focused on New Star that he is said check bill boards sporting the firm's adverts to ensure they are properly displayed.
The advertising may yet need to rethought as may his attitude towards commercial property investing. A year ago he was asked about whether a bubble in property was about to burst. He told his interviewer that commercial property was different to residential property. He may now be eating his words.

It should be relocated at Mal'akh because the Babewyn are the Mal'akh.
Talk about it here or check the revision history for additional comments.
Babewyns were a race that existed in a dimension just beyond that of the human consciousness. They were led by the King of Beasts.
History Edit
The Babewyns escaped from the Kingdom of Beasts when humans began to become curious about the world around them, breaching the boundries of the Kingdom. The creatures manifested as apes to represent the lack of knowledge that was being pushed aside in favour of the enlightenment and reason that mankind was beginning to explore.
The Eighth Doctor decapitated the Babewyn's leader; the King of Beasts, with the "screwdriver sonique" in combat, the device representing a new power that the creatures couldn't understand despite its normal inability to cause that kind of harm. (PROSE: The Adventuress of Henrietta Street)

Mike Tyson stopped talking about boxing for a moment in his Yahoo! Sports interview on the In Depth With Graham Bensinger show to share a crazy story that involved him walking in on Brad Pitt having sex with his now ex-wife Robin Givens.
The 46-year-old boxer, who is now married to his third wife Lakiha Spencer, explained the scenario, telling Bensinger, "I was doing a divorce but I/we [had sex] every day before I would go to my lawyer's office to say she's a pig and stealing. I would go to … [Givens'] house to have sex with her. This particular day, someone beat me to the punch. And I guess Brad got there earlier than I did."
What was Tyson's reaction? "I was mad as hell. I was going to ... you should have saw his face when he saw me." He added that he has no hard feelings towards Pitt over what happened.
That wasn't the only reveal the heavyweight champ drudged up. He also revealed he had a severe cocaine addiction while filming the first of The Hangover films. "They had to know I was messed up," he said of his co-stars and crew. "I couldn't talk. I had the cocaine talk. … So those guys are just beautiful people. They had my back, and I appreciate that and stuff, then they asked me to come back."
Tyson told Bensinger that he has since received treatment for his addiction.
What do you think of Tyson's explosive new interview? T.M.I.?

Tearful rocker James Durbin exits "American Idol"
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Rocker James Durbin, fighting tears of disbelief, was thrown off "American Idol" on Thursday as viewers chose their Top 3 on the TV singing show.
Durbin, 22, who was widely seen as a sure bet for going all the way to the finals, got the least number of votes despite universal praise from the judges during the week of inspirational songs.
His shock departure left 17-year-old country singer Scotty McCreery, pop/country singer Lauren Alaina, 16, and Haley Reinhart, 20, to compete for a place in the finale.
"I worked so damn hard and I was hoping to get there," said a stunned Durbin, tears streaming down his face.
"But I did so much stuff that's never been done on the show. I did what I came here to do, and that was to give metal a chance," he declared.
Durbin, who suffers from the tic disorder Tourette syndrome and describes himself as a high-functioning autistic, made a name for himself on the top-rated show with a series of hard rock performances, often against the advice of in-house mentor Jimmy Iovine.
But on Wednesday's performance show it was Reinhart who got a big thumbs-down for her rendition of the Michael Jackson's "Earth Song." In an unusually harsh remark, judge Randy Jackson chided Reinhart for "screaming."
For all the controversy earlier this season about audience bias toward male contestants, the final three is now made up of two women and a sole man.
"Idol" has increased its audience this year after three years of slipping ratings, thanks mostly to the arrival of new judges Jennifer Lopez and Aerosmith rocker Steven Tyler. Continued...

Bad taste..:delete if needed...
Surely Oscar Pistorius can't be the first bloke to wake up legless on Valentine's Day after shooting a load into his girlfriend's face whilst imagining she was someone else?
Last edited by thinwhiteduke; 02-21-2013 at 02:54 AM. Reason: Bad taste
Cell Phone Etiquette ??
After a tiring day, a commuter settled down in her seat and closed her eyes.
As the train rolled out of the station, the guy sitting next to her pulled out his
cell phone and started talking in a loud voice: "Hi sweetheart. It's Eric. I'm on the train".
"Yes, I know it's the 6:30 and not the 4:30, but I had a long meeting".
"No, honey, not with that blonde from the accounts office. It was with the boss".
"No sweetheart, you're the only one in my life".
"Yes, I'm sure, cross my heart"
Fifteen minutes later, he was still talking loudly.
When the young woman sitting next to him had enough, she leaned over and said
into the phone, "Eric, hang up the phone and come back to bed."
Eric doesn't use his cell phone in public any longer.

A well dressed and sophisticated Lady was in the lobby of a Big Hotel in New York waiting on the elevator.
The bellhop came up to her and said - "There's a wealthy gentleman over there that wants to know if you will sleep with him for a million dollars?"
The Lady blushes and replies "yes I will but it will have to be kept secret"

So the teacher says "OK kids, I am thinking of something round, and red"
Little Suzy pipes up "I know, it's a tomato".

So Little Johnny stands up, places his hand in his pocket and says "I am holding onto something that is round, hard, and has a head on it"
"Go to the principals office" says the teacher.
"No but you're thinking", say Johnny, "It's a quarter"
the Irish priest
An Irish priest was transferred to Texas .
Father O'Malley rose from his bed one morning. It was a fine spring day in his new west Texas mission parish. He walked to the window of his bedroom to get a deep breath of the beautiful day outside. He then noticed there was a jackazz lying dead in the middle of his front lawn.
He promptly called the local police station.
The conversation went like this:
"Good morning. This is Sergeant Jones. How might I help you?"
"And the best of the day te yerself. This is Father O'Malley at St. Ann 's Catholic Church. There's a jackazz lying dead in me front lawn and would ye be so kind as to send a couple o'yer lads to take care of the matter?"
Sergeant Jones, considering himself to be quite a wit and recognizing the foreign accent, thought he would have a little fun with the good father, replied, "Well now Father, it was always my impression that you people took care of the last rites!"
There was dead silence on the line for a long moment.
Father O'Malley then replied: "Aye,'tis certainly true; but we are also obliged to notify the next of kin first, which is the reason for me call."
Once upon a time, there was an officer of the Royal Navy named Captain Bravado who showed no fear when facing his enemies. One day, while sailing the Seven Seas, his lookout spotted a pirate ship approaching, and the crew became frantic. Captain Bravado bellowed, "Bring me my red shirt!"
The first mate quickly retrieved the captain's red shirt, and while wearing the brightly colored frock, the Captain led his crew into battle and defeated the mighty pirates. That evening, all the men sat around on deck recounting the triumph of earlier. One of them asked the Captain, "Sir, why did you call for your red shirt before battle?"
The Captain replied, "If I were to be wounded in the attack, the shirt would not show my blood. Thus, you men would continue to fight, unafraid." All of the men sat and marveled at the courage of such a manly man's man. As dawn came the next morning, the lookout spotted not one, not two, but TEN pirate ships approaching. The crew stared in worshipful silence at the Captain and waited for his usual orders.
Captain Bravado gazed with steely eyes upon the vast armada arrayed against his ship, and without fear, turned and calmly shouted,
"Get me my brown pants."
As a bagpiper, I play many gigs. Recently I was asked by a funeral director to play at a graveside service for a homeless man. He had no family or friends, so the service was to be at a paupers cemetery in the back country. As I was not familiar with the backwoods, I got lost and, being a typical man, I didnt stop for directions.
I finally arrived an hour late and saw the funeral guy had evidently gone and the hearse was nowhere in sight. There were only the diggers and crew left and they were eating lunch.
I felt badly and apologized to the men for being late. I went to the side of the grave and looked down and the vault lid was already in place. I didnt know what else to do, so I started to play.
The workers put down their lunches and began to gather around. I played out my heart and soul for this man with no family and friends. I played like Ive never played before for this homeless man.
And as I played Amazing Grace, the workers began to weep. They wept, I wept, we all wept together. When I finished I packed up my bagpipes and started for my car. Though my head hung low, my heart was full.
As I opened the door to my car, I heard one of the workers say, I never seen nothin like that before and Ive been putting in septic tanks for twenty years.
Apparently, Im still lost

A big Texan stopped at a local restaurant following a day roaming around in Spain ...
While sipping his wine, he noticed a sizzling, scrumptious looking platter being served at the next table. Not only did it look good, the smell was wonderful.
He asked the waiter, 'What is that you just served?'
The waiter replied, 'Si senor, you have excellent taste!
Those are called Cojones de Toro, bull's testicles
from the bull fight this morning. A delicacy!'
The cowboy said, 'What the heck, bring me an order.'
The waiter replied, 'I am so sorry senor. There is only one serving per day because there is only one bull fight each morning. If you come early and place your order, we will be sure to save you this delicacy.'
The next morning, the cowboy returned, placed his order, and that evening was served the one and only special delicacy of the day. After a few bites, inspecting his platter, he called to the waiter and said, 'These are delicious, but they are much, much smaller than the ones I saw you serve yesterday.'
The waiter shrugged his shoulders and replied, 'Si, Senor. Sometimes the bull wins.'
A husband and wife are shopping in their local supermarket.
The husband picks up a case of Budweiser and puts it in their cart.
"What do you think you're doing?" asks the wife.
"They're on sale, only $10 for 24 cans!" He replies.
"Put them back, we can't afford them!" Insists the wife and so they carry on shopping.
A few aisles farther on, the woman picks up a $20 jar of face cream and puts it in the basket.
"What do you think you're doing?" asks the husband.
"It's my face cream. It makes me look beautiful," replies the wife.
Her husband retorts: "So does 24 cans of Budweiser and it's half the price!"
"Man down on aisle 5!!!"
Jack Daniels Fishing Story
I went fishing this morning, but after a short time I ran out of worms.
Then I saw a cottonmouth with a frog in its mouth. Frogs are good bass bait.
Knowing the snake couldn't bite me with the frog in its mouth, I grabbed it right behind the head, took the frog, and put it in my bait bucket.
Now the dilemma was how to release the snake without getting bit. So, I grabbed my bottle of Jack Daniels and poured a little whiskey in its mouth. Its eyes rolled back, and it went limp. I released the snake into the lake without incident and carried on fishing, using the frog.
Not long after, I felt a nudge on my foot. It was that damn snake ... with
two more frogs.

The tiny cabin !
A social worker from a big city in Massachusetts recently transferred to the mountains of West Virginia and was on the first tour of her new territory when she came upon the tiniest cabin she had ever seen in her life. Intrigued, she went up and knocked on the door.
"Anybody home?" she asked.
"Yep," came a kid's voice through the door.
"Is your father there?" asked the social worker.
"Pa? Nope, he left afore Ma came in," said the kid.
"Well, is your mother there?" persisted the social worker.
"Ma? Nope, she left just afore I got here," said the kid.
"But," protested the social worker, (thinking that surely she will need to intervene in this situation) "are you never together as a family?"
"Sure, but not here," said the kid through the door. "This is the outhouse!"
"I got fired today", I told my buddy, "For downloading porn on the work computer and causing everything to crash."
"That's a bit harsh!" He replied.
"They don't muck around at Air Traffic Control" I said.

Police Know All Too Well About Fireworks Days
Grand Rapids police received what WOOD TV reports as "hundreds of complaints" about fireworks noise on Sunday.
But Sunday, Monday and Tuesday are three of the days in Michigan that the state government has set aside for personal fireworks.
Grand Rapids has made no local restriction.
On the other hand, the city of Holland imposed local restrictions last month. The Holland Sentinel had reported the city council says fireworks are not to interrupt your sleep between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m.

Three million New Yorkers are having difficulty affording food, including children, seniors, single mothers, and the working poor. As the only hunger-relief organization that takes a multi-pronged, integrated approach to ending food poverty the Food Bank For New York City is there with a solution. They work through a citywide network of soup kitchens, food pantries, senior centers, classrooms, after-school programs and more to serve New York City's most vulnerable populations. One in every five New Yorkers relies on the Food Bank for food, resources, and nutrition education to help them lead and sustain healthy lifestyles.

This paper examines the initial development and application of a framework for Multidisciplinary Design and Optimisation (MDO) in aeronautics. Traditional deterministic optimisation techniques for MDO are effective when applied to specific problems and within a specified range. These methods are efficient to find optimal global solutions if the objective and constraints are differentiable. But if a broader application of the optimiser is desired, or when the complexity of the problem arises because they are multi-modal, involve approximation, are non-differentiable, or involve multiple objectives and physics, more robust and alternative numerical tools are required. Emerging techniques such as Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) have shown to be robust as they require no derivatives or gradients of the objective function, have the capability of finding globally optimum solutions amongst many local optima, are easily executed in parallel, and can be adapted to arbitrary solver codes without major modifications. In this paper, the formulation and implementation of a framework for analysis and optimisation of multidisciplinary and multi-objective optimisation problems in aeronautics is described. The framework includes a Graphics User Interface (GUI) a robust EA optimiser, several design modules, and post-processing capabilities. The application of the method is then illustrated with application to a multi-objective wing design problem. Results indicate the practicality and robustness of the method in finding optimal solutions and trade-offs between the disciplinary analyses, and in producing a set of individuals represented in an optimal Pareto front.
