Supercharged HCG Review | HCG Drops Reviews
My review of Supercharged HCG is certainly positive, because like I said many times here on my blog, when I was on the diet, HCG Supercharged was one of the drops I used for my weight loss. Though there were some troubles on their site lately, as it was temporarily unavailable, it's all OK now and you can view their website without any issues again.Super Charged HCG first started in 2008 and it's been a growing and expanding company ever since. It's gotten its popularity on the field of dieting and the HCG diet and the guys from the company were able to establish themselves as an authority on the market. Their #1 priority, at least from what they claim, is to provide customer satisfaction and supply an excellent product. I consider HCG Supercharged drops a great weight loss product, not only because it can be obtained for free (one bottle of it, see in more detail below), but also because it really lives up to its hype. That's why it remains on my list of HCG drops reviews.
They claim their customers are loyal and keep coming back. While I cannot judge this statement, I can certainly say I have been a loyal customer of theirs. That's why my Supercharged HCG reviews is positive, because I have ordered 3 bottles of their HCG so far and never had any problem with shipping or anything like that.Other Supercharged HCG Reviews
On their website, Supercharged HCG have many client testimonials. Although they don't claim themselves their HCG is the best, they are said (also in the customer testimonials and reviews) that they are one of the most reliable and reputable manufacturers of HCG shipping to the USA.
Not only does Supercharged HCG produce Human Chorionic Gonadotropin in the form of drops. They also make a product they call Hyper Hoodia and other things are to be bought on their website, including a book focusing on the HCG diet and what to eat while being on it. They also sell something they call Super Food no. 12, which is a proprietary blend of 12 supplements, which they advise people to take it on a diet round. The blend consists of Alfalfa leaf, Ginger root, Green tea leaf, Cayenne, Garlic, Spinich, Citrus Bioflavonoids, Barley grass, Broccoli, Blueberries, Mangosteen, Acai Berry.

(Adds details on advertisements, prices of products)
By Diane Bartz
WASHINGTON, June 30 (Reuters) - Cosmetics maker L'Oreal USA has agreed to settle U.S. complaints that its advertisements for skin care products Lancome Genifique and L'Oreal Paris Youth Code were deceptive, the Federal Trade Commission said on Monday.
Under the settlement L'Oreal USA, a subsidiary of L'Oreal SA , is barred from making claims about the products that have not been substantiated by scientific proof, the FTC said.
In its complaint, the U.S. agency said L'Oreal claimed the Genifique line of products would cause "visibly younger skin in just 7 days" by prompting genes to "stimulate the production of youth proteins." The ads for the Genifique products, which cost between $60 and $132, ran from about February 2009 to April 2013.
L'Oreal advertised the Youth Code products by saying they would "instantly improve skin quality while revealing the new youth of your skin," the FTC said in its complaint. These products start at about $15.
The FTC alleged that L'Oreal had no studies to back up its assertions.
"It would be nice if cosmetics could alter our genes and turn back time," said Jessica Rich, director of the FTC's Bureau of Consumer Protection. "But L'Oreal couldn't support these claims."
L'Oreal said in its response that the claims that concerned the FTC had not been used "for some time now."
"The safety, quality and effectiveness of the company's products were never in question," said L'Oreal USA spokeswoman Kristina Schake in a statement. "Going forward, L'Oreal USA will continue to serve its customers through industry-leading research, scientific innovation and responsible advertising."

Baby Boomers have transformed many things in America during their lifetimes. Now, they're changing how we age. They are, on the whole, much more interested than past generations in staying active and keeping their minds and bodies at peak performance well into their 60s and 70s. Recent data show that knee replacement surgeries have doubled in the past 10 years and more than tripled among Americans aged 45 to 64 years. The projected volume of hip surgeries and other joint procedures also is rising. Short-term rehabilitation facilities must be prepared not only for this new volume of patients but also for this new kind of patient.
The average Boomer rehab patient is markedly different from the average rehab patient of 10 or 20 years ago. He or she is generally more educated about replacement surgery and rehab, thanks to the Internet and a freer flow of information. This new patient is more empowered, more likely to question care decisions and seek alternate opinions, and generally be a more active participant in his or her care. The Boomer also expects to remain active, stimulated and social during recovery—not isolated and treated as frail. Given this significant shift in their consumer base, nursing homes must rethink their approach to short-term rehab (and long-term care, for that matter). Boomers will be seeking—and expecting—a lot of it in the coming years.
In Chelsea, Mass., the Chelsea Jewish Foundation found that its path to short-term rehab innovation was obvious. In spring 2007, Barry Berman, the foundation's CEO, became interested in the Green House Project, which has developed a groundbreaking new model for delivering nursing care in skilled nursing facilities across the country.
Each Green House home is designed from the bottom up to look and feel like a real home. In each home, 10 to 12 seniors live in private rooms with bathrooms, and they set their own daily routines. Clinical care is provided by a team of versatile caregivers, all for the same labor cost of running a traditional nursing home.
At the time, no Green House homes were located in the Northeast or in a setting as urban as Chelsea. But Berman immediately thought this was a trail he had to blaze if he wanted to bring the best possible care to his residents. As he began planning to fund and build long-term care (LTC) Green House homes as part of a new community called the Leonard Florence Center for Living, he realized something else. Everything that Barry liked about the Green House LTC model—the layout that was easy to get around and felt just like home, the flexible schedule, the family-like environment—also could make it an ideal setting for short-term rehabilitation. So, he dedicated three of the Green House homes he planned to build as short-term rehab.
Since opening in 2010, the Leonard Florence Center's short-term rehab homes have been a successful testament to what's possible with the Green House model. The proof isn't just in the good things that Leonard Florence is hearing from elders, referring doctors and care staff—it's also in the data. On average nationwide, 20 percent of elders return to the hospital within their first 30 days of stay at a nursing home.1 At Leonard Florence, the rate has been half that—around 10 percent. Staff members also have reported an increase in the number of referrals from discharge planners, orthopedic doctors and repeat customers who need new procedures. The more people they send home happy and healthy, the more their customer base expands.
The reason that the Green House Project offers such a strong model for short-term rehab boils down to the concept of home. By making elders feel truly at home, the Green House model actually helps residents rehabilitate faster—and in a safer environment.
Although traditional nursing homes have specific rooms and equipment for use by rehab patients, Green House homes don't need any—because the approach is holistic. Every feature of a Green House home—the layout, the open kitchen, the private bathroom—resembles what residents will find in their own homes after they recover. So, every move made in a Green House home is practice for the return home.
The rehab is intentionally focused on building practical, transferable life safety skills. By being immersed in what Leonard Florence staff call a "functionality focused" rehabilitation experience, each senior's path to returning home becomes safer, easier and shorter. Green House model environment also may be more conducive to recovery, especially for the lively and engaged Boomer patient. Everything from the communal meals to the small number of elders makes for a tight-knit, supportive atmosphere. In addition, because the elders are on similar paths to recovery, they are able to share in their experiences and motivate one another.
"I've been in skilled rehab two times: once at a traditional nursing home and once here in a Green House home. It's not just the exercise here that gets you well again," as one senior, Bob Richman, put it. "It's the people around you having a similar experience. It's coming together around the table for our meals. It really works."
With so many Boomers in need of—or nearing the need for—knee, hip and other joint replacements, the market is ripe for a new model. For every adopter, NCB Capital Impact, the national replication organization of the Green House Project offers assistance at each step of the way, including help with financing, regulation, design and staff education. The Green House Project currently has 150 homes in 24 states around the country, but only a few of those homes are being used for short-term rehab. With the market for innovative short-term rehab heading for a boom in growth, may more should exist soon.

Green House rehab would have helped Mom
A year ago, my elderly mother and our entire family were traumatized by a stay in a typical institutional rehab that purportedly is in one of the best skilled nursing facilities in the country. Her case was complicated, and she was subsequently transferred to long term care. There was not enough staff to help her with going to the bathroom or getting in and out of bed, separation from my father was traumatic, the floor was noisy, the aides were resentful. We were harangued literally from Day 1: "You'd better have a plan. Medicare won't continue to pay..." I continue to believe that if she had rehabbed in a home-like setting, the outcome might have been different and she might have been able to transition back to the community. In both my Mom's situation and my Dad's more recent stay in a rehab, the therapists have been excellent, but the floor is very understaffed and the social workers are extremely overworked. Culture change is desperately needed. I hope the Green House movement can help lead the way.

With warmer weather and summer activities, our hair sometimes takes a beating and needs a little more TLC. If you find your hair is drier this time of year, you can do a deep conditioning treatment at home for very little cost with fabulous results.
- Put your regular conditioner on dry hair.
- Allow it to sit in your hair for five to ten minutes before stepping into the shower.
- Once you're in the shower, shampoo and condition again as usual.
This simple conditioning treatment works well because you're not wetting your hair first. Applying conditioner before wetting your hair allows the conditioner to penetrate deeper into your hair, or 'deep condition.'
You'll have shiny, great looking, healthy hair and look like you just left the salon. Try it – you'll be a believer!
What tricks do you use for dealing with dry hair?

Hahahahaha! I've done that before, except it was with a egg. We had a egg-dropping contest at my school, so we were all naming our eggs and talking to them! In the end I dropped it out the window and it didn't crack! But it cracked when I threw it at my friend XP
| Snowlia chapter 5 . 5/20/2011
So cute and so sad. This is a lovely look into Marina's life, another character we know so little about. She isn't Hunter, and she isn't Human, she almost seems closest to a night thing, and yet the Hunter's keep her. I always wondered why. I love how bittersweet this story is, how she reflects on her pain and things she will never have and yet the tone isn't overall angsty or self pitying, it's just almost matter-o-factly, just accepting things and reflecting on what she does have, even if she didn't explicitly mention it. It seems so in character for her, to reflect on bitter things, and then turn around with a genuine smile because accepting it is all she can do. Wonderful job.
| nakimina chapter 5 . 5/7/2011
Aaawww, poor Mar! I wanna give her a hug now...
| Snowlia chapter 4 . 4/11/2011
There are so few stories about Daemon, well I suppose there are few stories at all, but Daemon is often overlooked. This was an insightful look into his life and faith, or lack there of. I thought it was a perfect ending, with him being respectful of a deity, just in case. Anathea's explanation of her belief and her attempt at explaining it were perfect as well. I always enjoy reading you work, can't wait for more!
| Snowlia chapter 3 . 2/25/2011
It's great to see a characterization of Nadya, she is often overlooked. I liked how you flowed from her strength into her mental strength and how well she can hold up against the daily life of a Hunter. I also like how you incorporated each character, explaining how they carry her and what they mean to her life. The entire group really is quite woven together. To take one out may just be the undoing of them all. Anyway, lovely addition and I can't wait for the next chapter!
| nakimina chapter 3 . 2/19/2011
Awesome! Nadya rocks in socks!
| Snowlia chapter 2 . 1/22/2011
As always, your story was wonderful. I love that it's from Jay's POV, we so rarely here from/about him. He's one of my favorite characters, though maybe that's why I like him, because we know so little of him. I don't know. Anyway this story was fantastic, it's interesting, the voice you have given him. He feels almost alone it seems, because he feels like he's not a freak and they all are. Maybe I'm looking too much into it, but it almost seems like he's slightly jealous, but not really at the same time, if that makes sense. Like he's too normal compared to them. Maybe I'm wrong, just what I thought. I am so happy you wrote another chapter of this, and from Jay's POV no less. Please continue writing!
| nakimina chapter 2 . 1/16/2011
Ok, that was just the best. fanfic. EVER! I reread it like, 5 times!
| Snowlia chapter 1 . 1/3/2011
I always love your stories, and this one is as lovely as always. I am a little confused at the last couple of sentances, what was the interaction between Cassidy and Teresa there but other than that I don't have a negative word. I loved the tradition of holding handsand making a wish in the silence of the new year. I also liked how you showed Cassidy just quietly observing all of the others doing their own thing. You are always so great at keeping them all in character, it is like you know them. Well done.

How can I tell the difference?
Most Helpful Girl
A girl stringing you along will be "hot and cold": she'll tease you sexually and then act like she doesn't want anything to do with you. She'll also try and manipulate you in some way so that you can keep your interest in her: like saying that she has plenty of other guys who want her, but she chose to be with you.
I don't think there's such a thing as "playing hard to get". Some women just are. They don't know your intentions with her, so they're cool to you until they get to know you better, slow to warm up.00|00|0
Most Helpful Guy
Its easy if she is playful and rejects you once or twice and then she agrees to go out with you or do anything with you then she's just playing hard to get , or if she seems uninterested but at the same time she gives you attention and she agrees to go out with you then she's interested.
However if always has an excuse , if she just knows who you are when she needs something , if she gives you no attention whatsoever yet doesn't like it when you dont give her attention and she refuses to do anything with you its safe to assume that she just wants you there for support but not for an actual relatonship.00|00|0
Okay she flirts heavily then backs off and when I don't chase her when she backs off she comes back around. Rinse and repeat but we still haven't been on a date even though proposed a date and she didn't get back to me in a timely manner so I made one plans and she has also proposed a date but then she flaked on her own date proposal, now she's trying to subtly get my attention again - well has been for a little over a month but hasn't directly contacted me.
Her excuse for getting back to me so late the first time was she had been busy with work and the reason she flaked on her own date proposal was work.
How would you consider that?
Well she did ask you out so i guess that means she is interested in you , now about the work and busy think , thats total crap , i mean really no one is that busy no matter how you look at it , my advice is to talk to her again , set a date , if she agrees to go out and has no excuse then you're good to go , she likes you. if she refuses for any reason whatsoever then leave it and find another girl she is just keeping your around for emotional support

> Should researchers who commit fraud in the lab face criminal charges in court? asks Roger Collier in the CMAJ.
How would you feel about police executing a search warrant on your lab? "Seizing" equipment, samples, computers and other electronics, and generally stuffing up work in progress….
"Activists" could find to accusations of research fraud far more effective than FOI requests for disrupting inconvenient science.

Since it started in 2010, The Walking Dead has had audiences hooked. See for yourself, why, even those who aren't usually zombie fans have been pulled in by the series.
After its huge success, a large selection of merchandise was released. If you're looking to celebrate your favourite show then there are many products you can enjoy.
The Walking Dead Series
Created by Frank Darabont, The Walking Dead is an American TV series, which premiered on October 31st 2010 in America. The rest of the world had to wait until November 2010 to catch up. It's based on a comic book which features the same name. The comic was created by Tony Moore, Robert Kirkman and Charlie Adlard.
The series starts off telling the story of a group of survivors after a zombie apocalypse. Viewers follow the group as they search for a safe place to stay. The battle for survival against the zombies (commonly referred to as 'the walkers') is compelling viewing with a number of twists and turns along the way.
The post-apocalyptic horror drama shows no sign of slowing down in popularity. It has been nominated for many awards since its premiere. The show also smashed the record for the most watched drama series in cable history.
Fans looking to relive how it all started can buy the season DVD's. As well as being able to buy them separately, you can invest in a Walking Dead boxset. The boxset is available in seasons 1-3 and there are various box designs to choose from.
There are several versions of the DVDs available. You can choose from standard or Blu Ray. One advantage to buying the DVDs is they come with quite a lot of extras. You'll get to learn more about the story and behind the scenes of the programme. There are also deleted scenes that haven't been shown on TV. It's recommended you watch these extras after you have watched the series.
The Walking Dead Game
After its massive success, developers saw the chance to cash in on this cult TV series, and a game was created. Available on all platforms, The Walking Dead game actually won more than 80 Game of the Year awards. It's been extremely well received and it offers a unique interactive gaming experience. How the story develops depends entirely upon numerous choices the player has to make throughout the game.
The main character in the game is convicted criminal, Lee Everett. After narrowly escaping prison thanks to the zombie apocalypse, Lee soon finds himself fighting for survival. Could taking orphaned Clementine under his wing help to redeem his criminal past?
You can expect to make some pretty tough, quick decisions in the game. You'll also have to deal with more than just the walkers. Starvation, heartbreak and betrayal will test your character to the limit. This is a must play game that will have you hooked right from the start.
The visuals from the game have been inspired heavily by the original comic book. This is unlike any other zombie game on the market and it's definitely worth investing in.
The Walking Dead Comic
If you'd like to see how it all started, The Walking Dead comic collection is definitely worth a look. You can buy all of the comics online for pretty reasonable prices. These collectibles are for any true fan, and they feature really impressive sketches. The series started out in 2003, and after the success of the TV series, it introduced The Walking Dead Weekly. There was one issue sold every week for 52 weeks.
It's worth noting that you can also buy hardcover versions of the comics. Some of these versions come with bonus extras. You can also find signed copies of the comic books too.
Other Walking Dead Merchandise
There's also a selection of action figures available. You can find all of your favourite TV characters, including Rick, Michonne and Tyrees. Other merchandise that's been released includes:
Pet products
There's an extensive list of merchandise available. Posters are quite common and there are hundreds of designs to choose from. You can also find pre-made men's and women's clothing, along with the choice to personalise your own Walking Dead themed clothing.
Autographs are one of the higher priced merchandise you can invest in. If buying online, it is worth double checking to see that the autograph is genuine. You can do this by carrying out a search online. Comparing the picture on the listing to signed pictures on Google images, for example, will help you to determine whether the signature is real.
Overall, The Walking Dead has come a long way since it first started out. Fans will be eagerly awaiting the premiere of the fifth series. While you're waiting, why not invest in some of the merchandise on offer? Take a look and see just how much choice there is available.

As accessories editors, we'd thought we'd seen it all. Then, we were introduced to Hoda Designs and realized there's a whole world of harnesses, headpieces and body jewelry we needed to know more about–and definitely have in our wardrobes. The only problem was narrowing it down to one style.
We finally landed on a true one-of-a-kind piece, the Tribal Leather Harness. It features brass-plated snake chains and oversized gold jump rings draped perfectly through its holster-like leather straps. And while it may seem like one of those over-the-top items that will sit unworn in the back of our closets, we'd argue the exact opposite. The harness can literally dress up any outfit, from classic jeans and a white tee to the ever-stylish LBD. It even works to add some edge to sweet, delicate spring dresses.
As we mentioned, choosing one was the hard part because even though it is the perfect item to dress up outfits, we also realize that one leather and brass body harness is enough for our sartorial needs. But here are some runner-ups:
Hoda Designs is a handmade line from self-taught designer Hoda Menshari, whose pieces are elegant yet edgy, versatile and unique statement-makers. No two pieces are identical and Hoda designs each to be playful, challenging jewelry norms with fresh takes on necklaces, earrings and more to attract attention and engage conversation. The Tribal Leather Harness, along with the others shown above, is part of her latest Leather Collection, inspired by beautiful geometric shapes and body sculpting lines that follow the body's natural contours. Mixed with crystals and industrial nuts, the collection is both bold and whimsical.
The Tribal Leather Harness retails for $120 at HodaDesigns.com.

Themes and Meanings
(Comprehensive Guide to Short Stories, Critical Edition)
Much of Denis Johnson's fiction deals with the strange and surreal lives of people who live on the fringes of society, and "Emergency" is a clear example of this motif. Johnson included it in a collection of stories about the same unnamed protagonist of "Emergency." The title for the collection, Jesus' Son (1992), comes from a line in "Heroin," the Velvet Underground's famous rock song about addiction. The collection was the basis of a 1999 film, Jesus' Son, directed by Alison Maclean.
Johnson went through a period of drug and alcohol addiction, and it left him with a stark understanding of its grim realities. Therefore, there is nothing romantic about drug use in "Emergency"; however, Johnson is not judgmental about it either. Instead, he clearly shows its dangers and attractions and depicts the empty cultural wasteland that helps make drugs attractive.
Much of the meaning of "Emergency" centers on the orderly, Georgie. He is in many ways an admirable character. He saves Terrence Weber's life and sight by withdrawing the knife from his eye when the rest of the emergency room staff were panicking. He claims he will help Hardee reach Canada, thereby saving the narrator's friend from prison. We also see his deep sense of compassion when he weeps over the imaginary blood on the floor of the operating room and attempts to save the rabbit fetuses after his truck runs over their mother.

Hydrodynamics of turbulent flows within arrays of circular cylinders
This article presents a detailed spatial description, employing Particle Image Velocimetry, of a flow within an array of rigid and emergent cylinders with varying density in controlled laboratory conditions. Its main objective is to discuss the spatial distribution of the key terms of the budget of turbulent kinetic energy for different areal number-densities of stems. The following crucial innovations are introduced: a) the flow is quantified from spatial measurements, avoiding the use of the frozen turbulence approximation and b) space-averaging of two-point correlations and statistics is proposed as a means to salvage the formalism of homogeneous-isotropic turbulence. Turbulence characterization follows from second and third-order structure functions, autocorrelation functions, energy spectra and cospectra. Key terms of TKE budget are calculated in the inter-stem space and discussed. For reaches with large mean inter-stem distances equilibrium between production and dissipation is obtained. Turbulent diffusion reveals itself in the interaction of the von Kármán vortex sheet and background turbulence. Convective and pressure diffusion terms are important in the vicinity of individual stems.
Keywords: Turbulence ; vegetation ; PIV ; TKE budget ; spatial analysis

|Reviews for From the Ashes
| Kalle chapter 4 . 11/17/2007
huh... I like... nice incorporation of Blue Sun... update soon!
| Elliesmeow chapter 4 . 11/16/2007
Awesome. I wonder if any of the crew are related, however distantly to the original heroes? Can't wait to read more!
| anonentity chapter 4 . 11/16/2007
Yay! I love this story. It's what prompted me to watch heroes in the first place.
I liked the chapter, mostly because we get to see Claire join up with the group. I'm curious as to how dead Peter is, though, if you've advertised Peter/Claire as a main pairing. I'm also looking forward to chapters where there's less introspection and more action.
Great chapter, fun read!
| Elliesmeow chapter 3 . 11/14/2007
Awesome concept to mix these two worlds. I didn't think it would but it actually works really well.
Thanks for posting. Can't wait to see how Mal reacts to Claire's part in the BOSV and getting more background on what Claire's been doing all this time without Peter. Hope you post again real soon.
| Kalle chapter 3 . 11/3/2007
wow... me like... some similar fragments but still good and interesting... I would suggest given translation to the Chinese though. Ah the typical Cliffhanger/cut to black line... Meet _ last... I wonder Mal's reaction... Interesting River knowing something of Claire. though granted the fragmented speech of cheerleaders confuzzled me a bit but that b/c I haven't seen Heroes. ANYWHO... I like development. Update soon!
| Gwenfrewi72 chapter 2 . 10/30/2007
This is good and I'm really curious to see who Agents Alpha and Omega are. I have a feeling they're old friends of Clares.
| Kalle chapter 2 . 10/23/2007
I really like the set-up... and all the references to the episodes... one of my favorite Book moments be the special hell and his hair... anywho... interesting ideas for why Mal likes River... and why not with Inara... I kinda wish I knew more about Heroes but oh well I'll live... i think...
| ErinM chapter 2 . 10/23/2007
from buffybot76 [her computer iz ded]:
This was an interesting chapter. I loved Mal's inner monologue about his turmoil over his feelings for River and the conversation with the Operative was so good, I could hear their voices in my head. I'm so looking forward to how this story unfolds because I can already tell it's gonna be awesome. Update soon, kay? _
| Allen Pitt chapter 2 . 10/23/2007
Yep, I figured her regeneration ability would include near immortality... so by now she must have enough experience to be very dangerous in a fight... but she'll probably still look like she's 17... though River might react weirdly to her, after skimming through her memories
I'm almost afraid to ask who the 'two' are...
| Buffybot76 chapter 1 . 10/21/2007
Oh my God, what can I say? A fic that crosses over two of my all time favorite shows AND includes my favorite pairings for both fandoms? What more could a girl ask for! This opening chapter is very interesting and I honestly can't wait for the next one to come. Bring on the Mal/River! _
| maybewecantoo chapter 1 . 10/19/2007
A fic with two of my favorite pairings! I like the start, I'd love to see how the crossover will continue, it's very interesting.
| dfshie chapter 1 . 10/18/2007
Peter is sexy.

Game Reviewed: The Walking Dead: Michonne Ep. 2
Release Date: March 29th, 2016
Developer: Telltale Games
Publisher: Telltale Games
Platform: [Reviewed: PlayStation 4], Xbox One, PC
Genre: Graphic Adventure, Interactive
Rated: M for Mature
In too deep was a great way to describe the closing of episode one of The Walking Dead: Michonne. After having a group ready to kill you and those around, you found Michonne left with making decisions that could cost someone there life. And in the end, it did.
It's the aftermath of the gun smoke and a shot at revenge Michonne is left in an awkward situation, only to hope the right decision has been made. It's here where you are everyone's only hope in episode two: "Give No Shelter."
This episode reminded me that I was playing as Michonne and not some poor sap that never stood a chance. I made my bed and I'm fine with lying in it. Is it possible these decisions I made could affect everything moving forward? Possibly; But when the moment settles in, you never know what you'll do until your name is called. By the way, this was just within the first five minutes.
While this episode delivers more action then we could ask for, it feels to have taken a darker path to where humans are more dangerous than the walkers, similar to the TV show in its current season. The story picks up where Michonne and Pete attempts to escape from the hands of Randall and Norma. Every decision is up to you as Michonne continues to deal with PTSD from the possible death or disappearance of two daughters and getting back to their crew.
Give No Shelter ends with a great cliffhanger to ensure an awesome finale to the miniseries, but it's too short to appreciate the overall progress and story altogether. Unlike previous Walking Dead titles, I never had enough time to care for any characters as far as their trust, bond, loyalty, anything. What made the series now lacks in comparison.

The Binatone sat nav range promises to give a serious competition to the TomTom's sat nav range. Mio was bought over by Navman earlier this year and there were apprehensions about the future of Mio's sat nav systems. However, Navman has ensured it has done justice to the takeover by introducing newer and better features in Binatone. While many of the Binatone models are priced affordably, one cannot but wonder the usefulness of some archaic features. Here is a look at some of the models in the Binastone sat nav range.
For more REVIEWS of the binatone sat nav range please CLICK HERE
The Budget Binatone Sat Nav Carrera C350
This is one of the budget buys. One gets the feeling of having bought those yesteryear sat nav devices, thanks to the user interface. Although different indicators like speed, the information bar on the left hand side of the screen cannot be removed – which can be a bit prickly. It reduces the effective size of the screen as well and with no volume hardware, one has to delve a bit inside to change volume. However, it is easy to do a whole lot of things including postcode recognition and the auto zoom feature enables one to get an overhead perspective of where one is going. It's easy to add in waypoints and the Binatone Carrera C350 also gives drivers the simplicy they deserve by calculating complex drive routes easily and making route choices that are largely sensible.
The Binatone DVR505 – Monitor the road ahead
This is another of Binatone's offering that does a bit more and comes with a large 5-inch screen, making instructions be seen clearly. With a camera installed atop the car, the sat nav device monitors and records the road ahead. From indicating nearby toll roads to hotels, the Binatore DVR505 does a great job at making driving easy. The camera recording quality is good too and one doesn't need to buy a standalone dash cam any more. As a combo, this is a good budget choice.
Binatone R435 – Quick and easy
With an anti reflection touch screen, this sat nav device rests with a screen size of 4.3 inch. While that screen size might be of a standard smart phone, this sat nav device boasts of features like speed camera alert and full postal code search. The price is affordable for its range, and is priced at £54.99. The Binatone R435 boasts of an additional SD card storage as well where one can store more maps. The updates are available real time and with the turn-by-turn directions, it offers users an easier way to drive. It also features preloaded maps of UK and Ireland including maps of all petrol stations and restaurants.
Binatone R430 – It's light!
With a 4.3 inch screen size, this sat navigator supports multiple languages. It's touchscreen like most sat nav navigator these days and rubberized design for extra protection. The voice system is good, telling the driver everything from turns to speed lights. There is the SD card as well for installing extra maps and routes. At 122g, the Binatone R430 is pretty lightweight too and can even be used by pedestrians. However, this is a sat nav system designed for the cars, so don't be fooled by the lightweight. There is the car mounting and charger unit included as well.
For more REVIEWS of the binatone sat nav range please CLICK HERE
Binatone Sat Nav – Are they too basic?
Most people believe that Binatone's sat nav systems are a tad bit basic. If complex systems with more complex graphs and stats are the need, then these Binatone sat nav systems might not be the best choice. For most divers though, it is the availability of correct route calculation as well as the availability of 2D and 3D maps. From knowing best routes to which hotels and petrol pumps are nearby, Binatone's sat nav systems do a great job at making driving easy. It lets drivers know about approaching speed cameras and does complex route calculations within seconds by giving best route options. All of Binatone's sat nav devices come with USB cable, in-car mounting kit as well as in-car charger so it is pretty easy to set things up. The manual is pretty easy to read too, though one might not really need it; the process of setting the sat nav devices up is pretty simple. With Navman buying out Mio, one can expect to see more changes coming in soon.
Don't expect the quickest from these Binatone sat nav offerings though. But they do quite well for the price on offer and can be bought for a good deal on Amazon. We hope this post on the binatone sat nav range has been helpful.

VFB Lingerie Europe, a company that manufactures lingerie and swimwear and has been part of the North American Fruit of the Loom Group since 2007, owns some of the famous brands on the market, such as Belcor, Intima Cherry, Gemma, Lou Paris, Variance, Bestform and Vanity Fair. One of the reasons for the success of VFB Lingerie Europe is its consistent use of traditional business methods, such as a distribution system. The company contacted Zetes because it wanted to optimize distribution and provide a faster, more efficient service for its various distribution channels. Zetes's voice solution is used for automating the picking and cross-docking processes at VFB Lingerie Europe's main warehouse in Igualada, Spain, which has an area of 8,000 square meters. All the company's multinational brands are distributed from there. The Igualada facility can send out anything from 15,000 items a day to 25,000 at its busiest times. The voice solution was integrated into the warehouse management system used by VFB Lingerie Europe, and did not require any middleware. Zetes also adapted its voice solution to meet the company's needs. Since the company has a wide range of products and a high volume of information, Zetes customized the voice system so that the company could conduct picking and cross-docking tasks using voice technology. The system performs various tasks simultaneously and manages all shipments, taking into account styles, sizes, colors, etc. and obtaining real-time information whenever required. After designing and implementing the solution, Zetes was also involved in change management and staff training. "In just six months, our initial expectations have been fulfilled. Zetes and its voice solution have enabled us to increase productivity by around 20 percent," said Toni Solé, IT Manager of VFB Lingerie Europe." We can offer a faster, more efficient service to various companies without any errors, unlike the previous paper-based system where errors were inevitable due to the wide variety of products we handle."

Barrelling out of the Banner-Herald's photo vault this week - much like he did over Bill Bates on the Neyland Stadium goal line in 1980 - is former Georgia running back Herschel Walker.
Unquestionably one of the greatest - and maybe THE greatest - player in the history of college football, Walker's three seasons in Athens marked one of the most successful periods in Bulldogs history.
► See more archive photos of Herschel Walker.
Georgia posted a 33-3-1 record with Herschel on the roster, including three Sugar Bowl appearances and an undefeated season in 1980 when he was a freshman.
By the time Walker capped his college career with a Heisman Trophy in 1982 following his junior season - after finishing third as a freshman and second as a sophomore - he held 10 NCAA rushing records, 15 rushing marks in the Southeastern Conference and 30 at Georgia.
His career totals include 5,259 rushing yards, 52 touchdowns, 5.3 yards per carry and an average of 159.4 rushing yards per game.
Walker went on to strike a landmark deal to play in the USFL with the New Jersey Generals before later moving on to the NFL, playing for the Minnesota Vikings, Dallas Cowboys, New York Giants and Philadelphia Eagles.
But he'll forever be known to most football fans - particularly those around these parts - for his impact on the college game.
He's featured today in the third installment of "From the Vault" at onlineathens.com in a gallery of Banner-Herald photographs depicting Walker on and off the football field.

If, like me, you feel like you may be suffering from some sort of Seasonal Affective disorder in these cold, long days and terribly high winds we've been experiencing – a bit of springtime fashion may just be the answer. Boden have just announced the launch of their new season collection, which is just filled with beautiful dresses and vintage inspired pieces. And, if that wasn't enough to return the smile to your face, they are offering a very special new season discount.
Here is a look at some of the new season treats.
Had any wedding invites yet, I have had two so far, one for Spring and one for Summer, and I'm thinking that this blue dress will be a must for at least one of the weddings. This shade of cornflower blue is just so pretty!
This pretty shift dress with flower burst design is perfect for a touristy mini break. Amble around Paris or Rome in style in this vibrant design.
This embroidered spot cardigan feels like a vintage piece that Grace Kelly would've worn. Pretty enough to be worn over the simplest shift dress, or even with high-waisted shorts for a 1950s look.
A perfect pair of comfy shoes that will look great with jeans, palazzo pants and capri pants for a French Riviera look. I just love these moccasins.
Boden voucher code – 15% Off with Free Delivery and Returns
• Offer: Save 15% at Boden.co.uk with Free Delivery and Returns
• Code: AF02
• Starts: 06/01/2012
• Expires: 31/01/2012

Eat (too much…), Drink (too much…) and Just Be Merry!
Only in America could an event where people are able to eat unlimited amounts of food, drink a plethora of beer, and spend the day at one of the most iconic stadiums in the country make people unhappy, but…sigh…they were there.
The complainers.
The fight starters.
The standing-in-line texters who didn't move quickly enough and the line-cutters who hopped in front of them and the line waiters who howled in protest.
I am, of course, talking about Burgers and Beer — an LA institution that demands you show up hungry and HAPPY!
On Saturday, the other half and I had the great privilege of going to the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, where the event took place. I had a speaking gig downtown that morning, and (full disclosure), had press passes for both of us, so it was a no-brainer to go.
The LA Weekly puts on several of these food festivals each year (Tacolandia, Cookie Con, The Essentials…) and they are one of the greatest things about this city. As a girl who has a tiny appetite, but wants to taste every item on the menu whenever I go out, this is my jam. And here's a confession — I like that the lines are long!
It takes me a while to eat each morsel, and I need a bit of time to digest between, so this works out perfectly. Grab a plate from one stand, go get in the next line, eat while inching forward, be ready for the next bite by the time you get there.
Every now and then, take a break to grab a drink (if not a brewki fan, there are still plenty of water stands and other drink sponsors, including Honest Tea and Hubert's Lemonade). And no one under 21 was admitted — no one! The only children were the people behaving like children.
The weather was perfect, the parking was overpriced, the lines for burgers were long and slow-moving, the lines for beer were short and fast (probably because beer stands outnumbered burger stands two-to-one and it takes a lot less time to pour a beer than grill a burger), the live music was GREAT and the crowd was really friendly. Except for the few who weren't.
I get it. Some people thought it was too pricey, but c'mon — it's all the burgers you can eat and beer you can drink for the price of one burger and two beers at most of these restaurants (with tax and tip).
Some people drank too much, but mostly they just seemed to fall over and be funny to watch.
Some people were prepared to be Line Police, even when not called for, and to all of them I say, watch this (and appreciate the irony of who is in it):
Now, spend ten minutes reminding yourself how blessed life is for anyone with the resources and ability to read this.
Here is my thought process whenever my happiness might be challenged by costs, crowds and crankiness:
- I'm alive
- My body parts function
- I don't live in a war zone
- I'm safe
- I'm fed
- Life is good
Everything else is gravy. On a really tasty burger!
For me, the best burger of the day was Slater's 50/50, without equal.
A good second was Belcampo's lamb burger.
And it's always nice to see LA's finest keeping the drunks from hurting themselves…

I'll have much more on this next week, but the headlines on the annual union membership report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics are these:
- The percentage of wage and salary employees who belong to unions is 10.7%, down from 11.1% in 2015.
- In the private sector only 6.4% of workers belong to unions, down from 6.7%.
- 40.3% of local government employees, which includes public school teachers, firefighters and police officers, were unionized, down from 41.3%.
- Though there were about 2.4 million more workers in 2016, there were 240,000 fewer union members.
- The states with the largest drops in union share of the workforce were Alabama, Alaska, Louisiana, Nevada and Oregon.

If you are one of those people who are just itching to finally have a whiter smile then better make sure that you at least consult teeth whitening reviews first before you start booking an appointment with the dentist or start hoarding teeth whitening products at the grocery or pharmacy.
When it comes to teeth whitening products, expect the packaging and practically every marketing tool about it will say how great the product is but how sure are you that it will be as effective on your own teeth? You need to be more a little discerning when it comes to choosing such a product as this type of product doesn't necessarily come cheap. So the best way for you to be able to see if a teeth whitening product you've been eyeing will be a good fit for you better checkout the available teeth whitening reviews first.
This will only take around an hour of your time so you need not be lazy about it. Aside from comparing prices, do make sure that you read up on how long people started experiencing the actual effects of the product and if they're satisfied with the results. Also, if you can, try to ask those people about their experience too so that you'll get a better understanding of how the product really is.
If five people claim that a product is not good enough then it probably is worth checking out a different brand, there's no need to stick to something if it won't produce the results even if it's the more affordable choice because you'll only end up wasting more money in the long run.

HB 318 of the 2013 Session: Unconstitutional, but who cares, right?
by Bill Simon
Just an update to the story on Sunday, the Bill# passed that did establish the multi-million dollar, taxpayer funded, unconstitutional "venture capital fund" was HB 318.
Here is a link to the Bill: http://www.legis.ga.gov/Legislation/20132014/135871.pdf
Here are the State Representatives who voted for, against, or who were excused or did not vote on this unconstitutional bill: http://www.legis.ga.gov/Legislation/en-US/vote.aspx?VoteID=11103
Here are the State Senators who voted for, against, or who were excused or did not vote on this unconstitutional bill:
One of the most fascinating things to look at for the Senate roll call vote was that both Senator Bill Heath and Senator Vincent Fort voted against this unconstitutional bill.
You could not find any two senators MORE diametrically opposite in political or government policy than those two, and yet, they both voted against this clearly unconstitutional bill.
Well, I am personally inspired, actually, from my review of this legislation, and all the Crapitalists* who voted for it.
'Cause if the Legislature insists on so blithely ignoring the Georgia Constitution…then there is no need to follow any part of it, is there?
And, as a really odd result of my research of Georgia Supreme Court case law regarding the Braves-Cobb County deal, I now know something that I did not know before. I believe there is case law established by the Supreme Court of Georgia that will allow the following to occur without being in violation of the Georgia Constitution:
As long as the proper, specific steps are taken by a municipality, there is a legal path that relies on established case law for casino gambling enterprises to be built without amending the Georgia Constitution. Blackjack, Craps, Roulette, Texas Hold-'Em…all for real money. And, there won't be a damn thing the Legislature will be able to do about it.
I resolve to find some time in the New Year to strike-up a conversation with Fulton County Commissioner Robb Pitts. He wants to bring gambling to Fulton County…I'm going to let him see the case law and the thought process the Georgia Supreme Court followed for cases I've read and maybe there will be a simple, direct path to getting casinos built in Fulton County. Won't that be sweet?
And, if I can find someone on the Atlanta City Council who is interested, I'll show them the way too. Heck, it can be done in any county or city, as long as the votes are there to do what needs to be done.
Remember, in this state, the Supreme Court can re-write, amend, or nullify the Constitution without either the Legislature putting something on the ballot, or having the people vote to pass an amendment. They not only "can" do it, but, they relish doing it, Boys & Girls.
* A "Crapitalist" is a word I just coined, and it means any legislator (or city council member or county commissioner, or member of Congress, et al.) who says they believe in "free market capitalism," but they will happily take your tax dollars and shove them into a "loan" to someone that doesn't really have to pay it back, or shove it into a "VC fund" run by the state ('cause, Georgia would never repeat anything like the idiots in Rhode Island did with '38 Studios'), or use your taxpayer dollars for THEIR cronies to piss away on "economic development" activities (like, the Braves-Cobb County crap).
In short, they will treat your money like their money, and produce nothing but CRAP with it. So, they are not a "Cap-italist," but they are a "Crap-italist." And, Georgia appears to have far more than a fair share of them.

What's New at The Screen?
Don't miss two new films gracing The Screen on Oct. 14. Girl Asleep and When Two Worlds Collide are two drastically different films that will join The Screen family. The Screen updates its screenings of films every Friday, hoping to sway more Santa Fe citizens and SFUAD students into attending. Charlotte Martinez, manager of The Screen, isn't in charge of curating the films but finds herself excited for new films whenever Friday comes.
Girl Asleep, an Australian family film and recipient of "Best Feature" in the 2015 Adelaide Film Festival, portrays Greta Driscoll, a teen of the late 1970s who is thrown the 15th birthday party of her wildest dreams. Driscoll plays the part of the awkward but potentially popular new girl in school. Not only is Driscoll uneasy on her feet and unsure of who she is as she quickly stumbles into herself, her coddling parents intrude on her social life. Her parents throw her a birthday party and invite the entirety of the school, ultimately and indefinitely mortifying her. The film borders on Driscoll's conscious and unconscious mind, allowing viewers the freedom to assume anything is to happen. This lucid dream-like state gives the film freedom to fluidly move between the genres "comedy" and "coming of age."
When Two Worlds Collide, winner of countless awards, is a documentary filmed throughout the Amazon Rainforest, as well as the U.S and U.K, focusing on the Peruvian government forcefully extracting oil, minerals and gas from protected indigenous land. The documentary follows the fight between the government and its people, led by indigenous leader Alberto Pizango of the Shawi people. Pizango is the president of the Interethnic Association for the Development of the Peruvian Rainforest (AIDESEP). The film exposes the peaceful protests turned into violent riots at the hands of the 38 police officers sent to control the citizens. The aggressive and heinous subject matter is a strong contrast against the beautifully composed shots and passionate Peruvians fighting for their right to a environmentally safe and protected land. What is most captivating about the film is its ability to tell both sides of the conflict, all the while perfectly portraying the horrendous truth of corporate fracking and logging. The documentary acts as a voice for the indigenous people still fighting for their rights in the Amazon. The producers have encouraged viewers to take action by spreading the word and signing up to their website for updates and petitions.
"You have two dynamics, the documentary is super intense. But this little Australian comedy is fun for students, if they wanna take a break," says Martinez. Girl Asleep and When Two Worlds Collide will premier at The Screen on Oct. 14. Catch Girl Asleep at 7:45 PM after you see When Two Worlds Collide at 3:50 PM.

SFUAD Students/Staff – $3

Husband's agony for Roisin
Courageous Stephen pays tribute to loving wife
HE hobbled up the Church aisle on his crutch, behind the coffins of his beloved wife and his unborn child.
Stephen Connolly bore the marks of the horrific three-car crash that resulted in the deaths of his wife Roisin and two others in Monaghan last Monday.
But nothing would prevent the devoted husband from taking to the altar to pay a moving tribute to the love of his life from the Book of Sirach.
"A faithful wife is a safe shelter. Whoever finds one has a real treasure. A loving partner is something beyond price, there is no measuring their worth. A loving partner is a life-saving remedy, and those who respect the Lord will find true life as a person is, so is their love," he told the congregation.
Roisin (39) was brought to her final resting place along with her unborn child Catherine after a heartbreaking funeral Mass at St Mary's Church in Fanavolty, Fanad, Co Donegal.
Pictures of Roisin (nee Langan) and Stephen on their wedding day just eight months ago were dotted around the altar. Chief celebrant and close family friend Fr Pat McGarvey fought back tears as he spoke.
Fr McGarvey told how Roisin and her mother Kathleen had invited him to Christmas dinner, just days before she was killed on her way back to her home in Drumcondra in Dublin.
He was forced to cancel attending the dinner after a parishioner had died suddenly.
"But being the person she was, Roisin came and waited outside my house for 45 minutes to see if I could make it. What kind of woman waits for a man like that on Christmas Day -- a priest?" he asked.
Fr McGarvey said Roisin was "the happiest woman in the world" and was so looking forward to becoming a parent along with husband Stephen.
He said Roisin and Stephen lived for each other, which could be seen how they constantly looked after one another.
The priest jokingly referred to an internet clip of Roisin doing an Irish jig and said how she was a beautiful woman who always tried to look her best.
"Roisin had a beautiful spirit. Later after we sat saying the rosary, Kathleen, Stephen, Roisin and I decided to go down to the local to discuss how life had been for them for eight months of marriage," he said.
"We spoke of the birth [of her child]. Roisin had a twinkle in her eye. There was a joy, a pride, a hope for the baby and herself. She was the happiest woman in the world. The photographs (on the altar) capture part of that day. She had a broad smile," he said.
He added: "Let her life be an inspiration. Roisin played her part through to the end."
The Government was represented by Army Commandant Michael Treacy. A letter of sympathy was also sent by President Mary McAleese's office.
Among the many other people in the packed congregation were Roisin's friends from the Educate Together National School in Balbriggan and also representatives from the Donegal Association in Manchester where she lived for some years.
The offertory gifts brought to the altar included a GAA jersey from St Lawrence's GAA Club, a school project book and the sash which Roisin wore proudly when she was crowned the Manchester contestant at the Mary from Dungloe pageant.
There were further heartbreaking scenes when people lined both sides of the graveyard to lead Roisin and baby Catherine to their final resting place in the adjoining cemetery as the choir sang the folk song 'Mary from Dungloe'.
