Dada Life finally invaded the historic Shrine Auditorium in downtown LA after tickets had been sold out for well over a month. There was certainly a buzz that surrounded the area and loud thumping that shook the nearby city streets. The police force was out and about, keeping tabs on the ridiculousness about to ensue in the one of the most crime-ridden parts of town.
The security line was filled with anxious teenagers, well-seasoned ravers, cool-headed night lifers, and dudes in banana suits. Not a couple banana suits, not even a bunch (pun intended)... we are talking a sea of yellow. "What the F?" the security guards must have been thinking as they tried to pat down the foam and inflatable banana costumes. Seriously. If you had tried to meet up with friends and told them to look out for you in the banana suit, you probably would have remained lost and alone. Luckily, I was in jeans and a t-shirt, making it easy for me to... you know, walk.
I made it inside to see Pierce Fulton, an up and coming DJ who recently released the super catchy house anthem "Wanna Be" with Maor Levi. Pierce played the club mix, which really got the crowd amped up. His set also included a surprisingly large amount of Anjunabeats tracks, including the brand new Above & Beyond single, "Walter White." Pierce reminded me of a young (ironically) Porter Robinson, mixing electro-house bangers with melodic trance. A perfect opening act and someone to keep an eye out for if he ever comes to your neck of the woods.
At 11pm, Deniz Koyu took over. And I mean: TOOK. OVER. He opened with a mashup of his infamous "Bong" with The Naked and Famous' "Young Blood." He kept the energy up throughout his entire set, throwing in his new tracks like "Rage" with those from monster EDM producers like Hardwell, W&W, and the late Swedish House Mafia. My absolute favorite part of his set was the last 10 minutes. He brought everyone to the calm for the Dada-storm, surprising the crowd with Daft Punk's new single, "Get Lucky," off their new album. He masterfully mashed it with a Jordy Dazz rework, giving it a nice electro punch. Then, he transitioned into my favorite Deniz Koyu production: his collab with Dirty South, "Halo." Deniz left everyone screaming and wanting more... a void only Dada Life could fill.
On came Dada Life with a audio-visual intro that matched the absurdity of Dada-ism itself. Olle and Stefan, the men behind the Dada, were quick to remind everyone: "There are no rules but the rules of Dada" and that we came pretty, but we must "leave ugly." And with those words, the Dada was unleashed. Although they only played for an hour and half, they managed to work in almost all of their unmistakable hits from the past two years, including: "Rolling Stones T-Shirt," "Kick Out the Epic Motherfucker," and their remix of "The Big Bad Wolf." It was an awesome surprise, however, to hear "Happy Violence" and "Cookies with a Smile," both slightly older but instantly recognizable. All of these are soon to be instant Dada-classics, reminding me of the good ol' days when Dada Life used to open with "Damascus." Ah... that song... Anyway, Dada Life did a fantastic job keeping the energy high, tossing bananas from the stage into the crowd of bananas. And at one point, bringing a banana from the crowd onstage. If that isn't Dada, what is? They also played the best new tracks out there, straight from their May 2013 mix. The two that hit the hardest were: "Buzzcut" by Bingo Players and Tiesto's remix of "Get Loose." Amazing. They closed with "Feed the Dada," while every single person in the theatre yelled the lyrics at the top of their lungs, not wanting the night to end and not wanting to leave any gas in their tanks. No encore. Dada Land was officially closed.
It was an incredible performance – and I use the word "performance" intentionally. Olle and Stefan would throw their arms in the air, jump around like mad men, and put their hands on their head as if to say, "I can't believe this crowd!" And yet, this was a typical night for the two of them – they had a performance in San Francisco the night before and they are continuing their tour as we speak. In fact, they had an equally anticipated after-party to attend immediately after they ended their set at the Shrine. But for those in attendance, the night was one of a kind. Everyone left with a smile... and if you didn't, they handed out cardboard cut outs of smiles as souvenirs.

Hänsel and Gretel are living with their parents in a simple house next to a large forest. One day, while deeply engrossed in their play, they begin to follow a lively squirrel. Accompanied by a deer and a hare, they move further and further into the forest and suddenly find themselves standing in front of the candy cottage of the evil witch. She bewitches the children with her cane, so they cannot leave her garden. Gretel has to do all the housework, while Hänsel is locked away with the goose to be fattened. Despite this seemingly hopeless situation, Gretel joins forces with the squirrel and they decide to defend themselves. Gretel, the squirrel and the goose overpower the witch. Her cane is broken and she and her candy cottage vanish. Hänsel and Gretel can return home, unharmed. Accompanied by the goose and squirrel, they return, and the worried parents and their children are reunited.
Lotte Reiniger's Hänsel and Gretel varies slightly from the Brothers Grimm original, particularly at the end. She herself would probably have loved to adhere to the original and would have had the witch burn in the oven, but the producers, having emigrated from Germany, regarded this as a taboo so shortly after the Holocaust, even for a silhouette film. Symbolised by the witches' cane, evil is destroyed, which can be regarded as an unambiguous symbol – by no means an accident on the part of Lotte Reiniger. —Christel Strobel, BFI
Among the great figures in animated film, Lotte Reiniger stands alone. No one else has taken a specific animation technique and made it so utterly her own. To date she has no rivals, and for all practical purposes the history of silhouette animation begins and ends with Reiniger. Taking the ancient art of shadow-plays, as perfected above all in China and Indonesia, she adapted it superbly for the cinema.
She was born in Berlin to cultured parents, and from an early age showed an exceptional and, it seems, self-taught ability to cut free-handed paper silhouettes, which she used in her own home-made shadow-theatre. Initially she planned to be an actress, studied with Max Reinhardt, and used her skill at silhouette portraiture to attract the attention of the film director Paul Wegener. He invited her to make silhouettes for the intertitles to his films Rübezahls Hochzeit (Germany, 1916) and Der Rattenfänger von Hameln (Germany, 1918).

Great puzzle game. Really makes you think on some levels. My only gripe is the loading time when it's opened. Other than that, the game runs smooth.
jack r - 2011-09-07
Challenging game, but lots of fun. A bit of lag accasionally, though nothing interfering with the game.
Alicia - 2011-09-04
This game is simple to play but very interesting! Each level challenges you a lil' more. Also very minimal ad interference. -X2
Elizabeth - 2011-09-06
It totally rapes my battery and turns my phone into a mini-furnace. So, great as the game is, not worth the abuse on my battery.
Parnia - 2011-09-11
Fantastic game. I keep at this for hours! :-D I can't give it 4 stars because it is so fun but it would be so much better without the ads.
- 2011-09-25
I love games that make you think and this is one of them. The lines can shave off the narrowest bit messing up the piece count but still a great game.
Kilian - 2011-09-02
I finished the first...episode, chapter, w/e it's called. But I'm stuck where the mirrors start. If you can handle it, it's great. Too much for me.
Natalia - 2011-09-03
It's fun when you just wana do something . And you love it leave it for a while and then love it again .
ayat - 2011-09-24
This game is superb however, it doesn't let you open the next chapter unless you either get 50 stars or download a free app samsung galaxy
Nuno - 2011-09-16
Badly in need of a paid version without the annoying ads. Would definitely pay the $0.99 of the iOS version. Ads spoil an otherwise terrific game!

N. Korea approves nuclear strike on United States
Oh thank God! We so need one. Thank you, Democratic People's Republic of Korea! Could I ask just one itsy bitsy, wicked tiny, little favor though? I mean, I think that we are all on the same page here, and that the Occupation government of America must be stopped, and our Constitution restored…. well, at least you're with us on that first part, but yadda… We let an end to the war linger undone for six-decades, so what's a little more ambiguity among frie… I mean, sane people and mental cases.
The noble favor that I beg of you is just maybe a heads up on the geography and timing involved, and that you don't effe it up. Hopefully you have the correct targeting data (38.8977° N, 77.0366° W), so only the timing is important to us prisoners. That is mostly for the purposes of stocking up on what we need to survive the liberation process, which most of us won't, because we no longer control the civil authorities and police.
Don't get me wrong guys, this is purely political. I mean, you're still a genetically defective, isolated, and more-inbred-than-even-the-population-of-West Virginia's-Lost Hollar country. If fact, your population comes dangerously close to a level of fuzzing of chromosomes to the point of your genome looking like Monet painted it…almost as badly as the British Royal Family… HA HA! I cracked myself up with that one! You need another couple thousand years to get a family tree as forkless as the House of Windsor!
What I do mean boys is that you shouldn't get the idea that we all here like the idea of dressing like a D-Con guy with a Nehru collar, and hair like from some weird troll doll, from the dashboard of some Chicano's 1963 Chevrolet Bel Air that runs either 0.00001" or 37-feet off the ground, when the driver is not dribbling it in an attempt to show prowess for mating with God only knows what, and probably even he doesn't.
Just the same, we appreciate the help. What the heck, we've hooked up with even the French a whole bunch of times.

An usual domain model consisting of POJOs is mapped to be persisted with Hibernate (works ok).
I am using the Spring Framework AOP cappabilities - so my POJOs are proxied by Spring to add desired aspects.
For example, lets say that a class Product is mapped to be persisted with Hibernate. Then, in the Spring mapping files, it is defined to be intercepted in a way that every method is logged (maybe not the best example). In a runtime, every object that is obtained via Spring Bean Factory and manipulated in the program code behaves like it is a Product, but if you invoke getClass().getName() on it you will get something like $Proxy123.
The problem arises when I need to store (save, update, whatever) these proxied objects. Hibernate probably tries to determine the class name, so it tries to persist %Proxy123 instead of Product.
How can I tell Hibernate "that's a proxy that can't be stored but it can give you the right object if you ask", when it try to store (or do something else) my object?
Probably the solution is somewhere in net.sf.hibernate.Interceptor interface. Hibernate3 adds Interceptor.getEntityName() method that might be helpful (I am not sure), but Spring still does not support Hibernate3.
Anyone got the solution?

Location: New England Plant, Soil and Water Research Laboratory
Technical Abstract: Dissolved organic matter (DOM) derived from fresh or early-stage decomposing soil amendment materials may play an important role in the process of organic matter accumulation. In this study, eight DOM samples from alfalfa, corn, crimson clover, hairy vetch, lupin, soybean, wheat and dairy manure were investigated using ultraviolet (UV)-visible, Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR), solution P-31 and solid state C-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)spectroscopies. UV-visible and FT-IR spectra of the plant-derived DOM samples were typical for natural organic matter, but possessed less humic-like characteristics than dairy manure-derived DOM. The C-13 NMR spectra of the seven plant-derived DOM samples indicated that they all were primarily composed of sugars, amino acids or peptides and low-molecular carboxylic acids. Carbohydrates are dominant components with very few aromatics present. In addition, DOM from crimson clover and lupin, but not other three leguminous plant DOM samples, contained significant asparagine. On the other hand, DOM from corn and wheat contained less amino acids or peptides. The spectra of DOM of dairy manure revealed the presence of significant amounts of nonprotonated carbons and lignin residues, suggesting humification of the manure-derived DOM. Significant carbohydrates as well as aromatics were present. The P and C bonding information for these DOM samples may be useful for understanding the effects of DOM on soil nutrient availability to plants.

Why Interns
The best time to seek work in an internship abroad and to prepare for an international career is while you are a student or soon after graduation. You may be considering an overseas work experience for many reasons: an adventure, a chance to gain in-depth knowledge of another culture and of yourself, an inexpensive way to improve foreign language proficiency, or as preparation for an international career. -- William Nolting
Who are Interns?
An intern is one who works in a temporary position with an emphasis on education rather than merely employment, making it similar in some respects to an apprenticeship. Interns are usually college or university students or other young adults. They can also be adults later in life seeking skills for a new career. Thus interns may averagely be around 20 - 22 years old.
Why Hire Interns?
Through internships, employers can find talented students to assist with necessary and important tasks. An internship is mutually beneficial. While employers provide the learning experience, students offer the necessary office, project, or department support. The cost to employers is minimal yet the rewards for the students are numerous. Interns provide employers with trained recruits already familiar with the corporate culture.
The reasons why employers are recruiting interns can be listed below:
1. Cost Reduction
Since interns are not permanent employees there is less cost and commitment involved in having them as a temporary part of your team. Most of them are paid on a hourly basis and some being unpaid! This is an inexpensive way to find motivated employees.
2. Evaluation Period
Working with a recent or soon-to-be graduate on a non-permanent basis is a great way to evaluate the performance of potential future recruits. Previewing ensures a better match. The employers are able to observe the interns as prospective employees. Sometimes internships also allows interns to have a hands-on experience on the job. After trying out for sometime, they can be sure whether they like the job a not. In fact, many companies consider internships to be a 10-week "interview".
3. Current and Up-To-Date knowledge
Interns bring up-to-date training and skills to their assigned projects as well as to your team as a whole.
4. Great Learners
Interns have great attitudes. Interns bring with them new perspectives and ideas. Student interns are wonderful additions to a team because of their desire to learn as much as possible and willingness to perform a variety of tasks. As they are young, they learn fast and have better memory too.
5. Special Projects
There are a lot of interns available. Sometimes company needs to carry out pilot project and need the use of majority of people. Interns are useful in such cases where they are hardworking and it is inexpensive. It gives the company a chance to get special projects done.
6. Good Reputation
Hiring interns would indirectly increase the company's reputation on campus and in the community.
Paid vs. Unpaid Interns: Employers may choose to offer interns a salary or stipend, or they may offer internships on an unpaid basis. An issue to consider in deciding about salary is supply and demand. In certain fields, students are often willing to volunteer their time to gain experience: entertainment, social service.
Paid internships are most common in the medical, science, engineering, business (especially accounting and finance), technology and advertising fields. Internship positions are available from businesses, government departments, nonprofit groups and organizations.
What Interns Gain from an Internship
Internships may be part-time or full-time; typically they are part-time during the University year and full-time in the summer, and they typically last 6-12 weeks, but can be shorter or longer. Interns can :
- Gain professional work experience.
- Gain more skills and abilities.
- Have broader professional network.
- Have a better chance of eventual full-time job search. They will learn how to network, write cover letters and a resume, and interview effectively.
- Decide if they are interested in or compatible with a certain major or career field.
Many employers and agencies work with student interns to fulfill social and civic responsibility. They find gratification in providing students with important opportunities for intellectual, moral, ethical, career, and leadership development. Employers realize the immeasurable value an internship can provide for students.
There are literally hundreds of opportunities for internships abroad. Intern Town is an UK based website that communicates between companies and interns. The website is fairly new but one can find interns all over the world and for companies worldwide to advert their internships.

What Past Guests Are Saying
Houston TxPerfect Getaway!!
Everything was beauitful from the room to the staff and the beach. They made us feel very comfortable and safe. We couldnt leave the room because the bed was so comfortable. Everyone was so nice. I truly love this place and cant wait to go back. The room very very clean and beautiful. It looked just like the pics.
Atlanta, GAWonderful Experience at The Palmyra
I stayed at this one bedroom condo in The Palmyra for 4 nights, and it was exactly what I needed. It was immaculately clean, well appointed, very peaceful, and luxurious without being over-bearing. I wanted someplace quiet, private, and inconspicuous--and I got all three.
The service was great. The concierge desk was always attentive and very patient while I asked them all the questions that I needed to get answered in order to be comfortable.
While I absolutely loved the place, if you are looking for a bustling complex with lots of entertainment,amenities, and restaurants, you may be a little disappointed. I wanted the opposite, so it was perfect for me.
One important detail is that, unless you have a car, you should be prepared to do all your grocery shopping on the way in from the airport.
In terms of the owner, she was great. Making my reservation, getting a driver to pick me up at the airport, and paying my deposit were all smooth transactions through FlipKey.
I've already made recommendations to my friends and plan to stay here again if it's available at the same time next year.

In my dreams I am a wild woman living in a forest of pine trees high against a mountain. I stroke the she-wolf who watches out for me as snow falls and the land is purged white and clean. In my dreams I wear animal skins around my waist and shoulders and as boots on my feet. I wake at daybreak to see the sun sparkle, knowing the day is all mine, as is tomorrow, and the next. In my dreams I walk with my head held high and at night the crackle of the camp fire warms my bones. This is a life so unlike that of the working woman whose chaotic days have no space for light or sound. And so I dream, shutting my eyes to visualise the call of the wild, and to touch the woman locked inside.

I'm sure back in the 80s, the idea of a computer costing less than $100 was unthinkable. Now there's a laptop for that price, and Raspberry Pi's go for even less.
(I'm sure the flying noise I heard was the point of the comic going over my head.) -
or, congress slashing the budget so that 750k people will lose their jobs, because it is acceptable sacrifice for limited gov't.
Cute, Sillstaw. Hmm, my C64 cost $200. But … I had to get a TV/monitor to hook it up to … and a disk drive … and a printer. I guess I spent $800-$900 after all. Aw. Now I spend less than $500 and get millions times more computing power, gaming, communications, graphics, storage, printing, etc.
I spent $100 just to add 16K of RAM to my Apple II Plus.
My first computer was an Apple //e, it costs something like $2,200. If I would have waited 2 weeks, I could have gotten it with more features, duel 5.5" disk drives, for $600 bucks less.
Yep Ronny Raygunz thought that millions of casualties were acceptable losses during the Cold War.
Not really, which is why nothing ever happened. Both sides realized the price was far too high.
True. Apple //c here. And yet it was an exciting time. A voyage of discovery. The same type of challenges today are just a pain in the butt.
hate buying electronics today, for tomorrow twill be less to pay.
I never could afford a computer and still cant'. I am happy that my brothers help me.
$39.95 ??? That's better than a Commodore 64!!
Where are my car keys!!! -
I bought a Commodore II for two sons to "Learn" with, and I was the one that learned the inherent lesson, namely any electronic thingamajig will be obsolete the minute it hits the shelves, no regrets though!
Heck that's better then the Vic 22 which predated the 64
A raspberry pie? They're $6.95 at the local grocery…. Bananas? Apples? Raspberries? —Maybe I should trademark as many fruit names as I can and take over the future of computer marketing….

Kristen Stewart Sex Scene with Robert Pattinson: Finally The Payoff
Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are going to finally have sex in the new Breaking Dawn, the latest installment in the Twilight Saga. There's even a picture of it on the internet. Great. Only in the cinematic climate of the 21st Century can the Hollywood machine make a blockbuster series, based around a couple with no chemistry, that don't even have sex for three full-length films.
No sex. No chemistry. Sounds like middle school.
Which is fitting, because I feel like the only people who should be able to enjoy these films are middle school girls. But…surprise! Adults go to these movies! Am I the only person that finds this shocking?
Regrettably I've seen Twilight and Eclipse (girlfriend but it's really no excuse), so I'm aware that Robert Pattinson is ashamed he's in these movies. You can tell by the way he stares awkwardly at Kristen Stewart and quivers his lips that he's feeling shame, not love.
The fundamental problem with the Twilight Saga though is not just the mediocre acting. It's the idea that vampires are attractive creatures. Has anyone seen Nosferatu? Vampire romance books have unfortunately been around for some time. I see plenty of them when I go to laugh at the romance section at my locals Borders.
But the fact that an unremarkable series of them took off to become the Twilight craze doesn't make any sense. But then again, does anything really make sense when people care about the guy from Motley Crue that didn't shtup Pam Anderson? Oy vey.

Kennel Von Der Zahnburg -
Has anyone ever had any dealings with this kennel?
Kennel Von Der Zahnburg It is owned and operated buy a fellow forum member Zahnburg and I was hoping for some input if anyone has dealt with them before. I have no concerns about them since all of my communications with them have been timely and well answered. I am considering buying a Puppy from them and just want to do my research. |

Deprived? Puh-lease!
I always think it's funny when people think that I'm "deprived" when I tell them that I've completely ditched soda and sugary sweets.
I just don't understand how my taste buds could possibly be deprived when I'm eating such delicious food (see below)!

NOW with Alex Wagner | November 03, 2012
>>> with all the issues facing the country, governor romney has focused on for the last three months, he is going to get rid of planned parenthood . by the way, he doesn't even know he doesn't control planned parenthood . he should talk to big bird . he is gone.
>> that was vice president joe biden earlier today taking aim at governor romney 's vow to eliminate funding for planned parenthood . this year single ladies could play the deciding role, with 55 million of them eligible to vote. according to a recent pugh poll, president obama is whomping, i believe that's a technical term , mitt romney by 25 points among that group. in many respects, the election has become a choice between the past versus the future, a choice between a bygone era and a brave new world . joy reed explores this dynamic, writing it takes for granted that billy might have two moms or two dads, or that the ceo might be a she. it could care less if guys serve in the military. it can't imagine abortion or conservatives being illegal. i thinks madmen is a good tv show , but so is the walking dead . cecil richards is the president of planned parenthood . and today she is joining us behalf of the obama campaign . part of my favorite thing is how much i get to see you. thanks for joining the program, as always.
>> thanks for having me back.
>> cecil, the numbers on women voting in this election, and the number of women who are single, i quoted that, 25% is a shocking margin. i wonder what you make of that. and then let's talk about this gender gap clothing, the myth making in the romney campaign, which "the huffington post " says really was at the end of the day just a little bit of residual bump from the first debate performance.
>> yeah. the gender gap isn't closing. if anything, i'm out here in ohio today. and what we're seeing, i think this election is coming down to who do you trust. and women know they simply can't trust mitt romney . i mean he is obviously willing to say anything to get elected. and every woman has met a guy who will tell you one thing and do another. and that really is i think why we're seeing this -- particularly with young women , they're saying president obama has been there for them. he has been on health care issues, on equal pay issues, and he is a guy you can trust with your future.
>> cecil, i wonder what you make of him. we talk a lot about mitt romney 's late stage pitch to the middle. a political scientist at ohio state says as far as mitt romney and his strategy to be a more sort of lovable candidate, at this point in the campaign, we're switching from who we're going to line up with -- who we're going to line up with you to get at your supporters to turn out. romney didn't start running that compassionate strategy until it was probably too late. too many people have probably already made up their minds. could he ever have embarked on a compassionate strategy? is there run in the republican party for someone who doesn't want to defund planned parenthood or does believe in a woman's right to choose?
>> that's just not who mitt romney is. he has pledged repeatedly he would be delighted to sign a bill overturning roe. he wants to get rid of planned parenthood . just hope to goodness that women don't know his position. this is where we're seeing the enthusiasm is on the president's side. frankly, i'm in columbus, ohio . and i've been to phone banks. i've been to canvas operations. and there are women everywhere coming out of the woodwork who are volunteering for president, and who are turning out to vote.
>> heather, i want to bring you in here. you know, part of the problem that romney has had, he has not tried the say too, too much on anything related to women . but then he appears in ads with people like richard mourdock , and the republican party is filled with these whackos that say the things they do and can't help themselves. bill clinton had plenty to say about richard mourdock yesterday. let's take a listen to what he had to say.
>> the nominee who defeated him said he wanted to go to washington to bring more partisanship, that his idea of a happy day was enforcing his opinion on someone else . i don't want and governor romney endorsed the guy. we cannot afford to put the white house and the congress in the hands of people who say it is my way or the highway.
>> now he -- clinton is of course focusing on mourdock's partisanship. but calling attention to the relationship that the two men have. and romney has not disavowed richard mourdock or walked back his endorsement in any way.
>> i think it's very clear. people say oh, he was misconstrued, mourdock was. but he is reflecting what was an incredibly extreme policy position that is in the republican party platform, which is saying that there should be no abortion even in the cases of rape or incest. and that's something honestly as a young woman , i never thought we would be having that conversation actually at this point in time. so of course. i think mitt romney has to walk this line of sort of recalling his former massachusetts moderate ways, playing the way he did during the primary, which was incredibly right-wing on these issues, and then saying that, you know, i'd be happy to sign a bill outlawing roe v. wade , but then he also said around the first debate when we saw the new etch a sketch romney , he said he didn't know of any bill that he would want to pass to limit abortion. it was really quite shocking. and with no information there, you have to go with where the heart of the party is.
>> right.
>> because that's actually where laws are generated is in congress. and that's a very scary place for women .
>> cecil, you've been at the helm of this stuff for a while. why in your opinion is the heart of the republican party where it is right now as far as women 's reproductive issues? how did they get to this point? we know in the late '70s and early '80s they began to court social conservatives . it feels like we are literally having arguments that were settled on 50 years ago.
>> oh, absolutely. that's what women are saying to me out here in ohio . they can't believe we're fighting about whether women should get access to birth control . but that's actually what is happening. mitt romney has taken a position he wants to allow employers to refuse to allow birth control in insurance plans. alex i don't think that is the heart of the republican party . i think that mitt romney and the folks that are running, some of the folks that he is supporting, todd akin , richard mourdock , these interest most extreme part of the republican party . because the bedrock of the republican party was historically small government and keep government out of your personal lives. that's why i think they are on completely the wrong tangent, and that's why republican women , many are going to cross over this november.
>> i do think you're right there. i think this is an issue that women cross the aisle on. thank you as always to planned parenthood , cecile richards .
>> good to see you, alex. thanks.

(StatePoint) As more of our communications take place over the Internet, it's no wonder that an ever-growing number of singles are meeting each other through online dating services. In fact, Online Dating Magazine estimated in 2011 that more than 280,000 marriages a year are a direct result of people meeting online.
"While your soul mate could be only a few clicks away, there are risks associated with online dating," warns Lis Wiehl, Fox News Legal Analyst and author of the recently released novel, "Darkness Rising," of the East Salem trilogy. "From financial scammers to criminals, strangers on the Internet are just that -- strangers."

Our patented technology allows for complete extraction and detection of drugs of abuse. This technology is unique to Psychemedics.
Used by Over 10% of the Fortune 500
Psychemedics is used not only by Fortune 500 companies, but also schools, courts and major police forces.
Unmatched Legal Track Record
Psychemedics' hair test has been upheld in more state and federal courts than any other testing lab. Psychemedics has over 25 years of experience in defending workplace testing and our results are routinely upheld when challenged.
The Psychemedics Advantage
On average, 85% of the drug users identified by Psychemedics would have been missed by urinalysis. This is due not only to our much longer detection window of approximately 3 months, but also to our unique patented technology.
Because Psychemedics' technology is the only one that removes virtually 100% of the drugs from the hair, we are able to provide superior detection and accurate results; especially when compared to other hair tests, as well as urine.
Psychemedics is the test for companies serious about drug testing and creating a drug free workplace.

TwitPic Clone
Twitter has seen a previously unheard of rise in popularity in the last couple of years and many analysts are saying that this can be attributed in part to the open API that they use which allows any other site to piggyback off their membership database. These Twitter powered sites (sometimes referred to as just Twitter apps) can add a whole host of additional features to the otherwise lean layout and functionality you get with Twitter.
One of the most popular Twitter apps that have sprung up is TwitPic. This easy to use application acts like the photo album for many Twitter users who simply upload their photos and then share it on Twitter to all their followers. The concept couldn't be simpler but it's by far the most popular site powered by the Twitter membership database.
If you are looking for a TwitPic clone or trying to create a new twist on the TwitPic concept get in touch with Agriya who can take your ideas and create the perfect Twitter app for you. Our experience developing Twitter powered websites backed up with over 10 years of experience in developing successful websites means that we are well placed to meet your TwitPic clone requirements.
TweetPic uses the Twitter API to piggyback on the success of Twitter by letting your visitors signup to your site with two clicks using their existing Twitter account. This then connects their account on your site to their Twitter account and anthing that they share with others is automatically tweeted on Twitter. If you upload a picture on our demo then on your Twitter account it will tell all your followers that you have shared a picture and include a handy link for them to check it out - and this is how your Twitter sharing platform goes viral by leveraging the popularity of Twitter.
A case in point to show how quickly your site can grow is back in 2009 when the pilot of a passenger plane had to ditch in the Hudson river the first images for the scene were posted to TwitPic and the popularity of the site when global. All it takes is for one of Twitters millions of users to upload an in-demand picture and your site will receive world wide fame.

Agriya's software enables you to run a group deal website which is similar to Twitpic.

Walgreens no problem for council candidates
All four say residents should take their business elsewhere if they dont like chain stores. By Benjamin Graham, Jackson Hole, Wyo. Date: October 31, 2012 The four candidates running for Town Council said they wouldn't stop chain stores, such as a Walgreens proposed for West Broadway, from coming to Jackson. But candidates Phillip Cameron, Jim Genzer, Hailey Morton and Jim Stanford had different opinions on the value franchises pose to Jackson residents and on how local businesses should be promoted. Questions about box stores and a proposed 13,328-square-foot Walgreens for the corner of West Broadway and Budge Drive arose at an election forum Oct. 17. "I think it sets a really dangerous precedent," to try to block Walgreens, Cameron said at the forum. "I think that door has already swung open," he said Monday. "We already have a number of regional and national franchises in town." Residents can promote local businesses by choosing not to shop at chain stores, said Cameron, who placed third in the primaries. "I don't see it as the council's place to obstruct that," he said. The council can make sure the aesthetics of a store match that of town, he said. Stanford held similar views. "It's a free market," said Stanford, the third-place primary candidate, said. "I think the horse has gone out of the barn on trying to keep chain stores out of Jackson." Still, national franchises won't necessarily be successful in Jackson, he said. "I've seen chain businesses come and go in this community," Stanford said. "Just because one opens, doesn't mean it's going to be a slam dunk." He cited Kentucky Fried Chicken, Polo and Arby's. Like Cameron, Stanford said it would be up to consumers to "vote with their dollars." "If you don't like these types of chain businesses," he said, "don't shop there, don't spend your dollars there. "I don't think you're going to be able to buy your elk tag at Walgreens." Morton, the top vote getter in the primary election, said that she probably would shop at Walgreens if it came to town and that she wouldn't obstruct the approval of such a store. "For Walgreens, it's not a huge building," Morton said. "It does, I think, serve a purpose for the community." But the council can ensure that the building matches the look and feel of town, she said. The proposed Walgreens was shot down in October by the town of Jackson's Design Review Committee because of its appearance. The developers will come back to the committee with a different proposal in November. "When we move forward with more LDRs to reflect the comp plan, we can make it more clear cut," Morton said of design standards for new development in town. "I want to keep it a level playing field for all businesses," she said. Genzer isn't a fan of having more stores like Walgreens in town but said he wouldn't oppose them. "Personally, I don't like the idea of the big-box stores," Genzer said. But the council shouldn't block particular businesses from coming to town and serving the community, he said. "As long as they're attempting to fit into the community, I don't think there's anything we can really do about it," Genzer said. New stores should blend in with town's Western atmosphere, he said. He prefers "log accents." The personalized service of locally owned and run stores will help them survive, he said. The candidates are competing for two open seats on the council. General elections take place Nov. 6. |

6-11 prep star lives dream, plays for John Calipari
Karl Towns
, a 6-foot-11, 230-pound rising sophomore from
St. Joseph (Metuchen, N.J.)
, is living a dream this summer.
He is playing with the Dominican Republic national basketball team (his mother was born there) as it bids for an Olympic berth. Not long ago he played before 16,000 fans as his team defeated Puerto Rico 80-72 to win a 12-team tournament featuring professional teams from Central America. The victory provided him with his first of what probably will be many gold medals.
His teammates include NBA players Al Horford of the Atlanta Hawks and Francisco Garcia of the Sacramento Kings along with several former Division I college players.
AND he is coached by John Calipari, who guided Kentucky to the latest NCAA basketball championship.
Towns told the Newark Star-Ledger that playing for Calipari has improved his game "at least 150 percent. Coach Cal has taught me things about basketball I didn't even know existed. He is such a great coach and a great guy. I'm actually learning NBA plays and NBA defensive schemes. We spend so much time on little things like how to react in different offensive and defensive situations within 24 seconds, things I could not get anywhere else.
"I'm working on my post-up game with Del Harris, who has been an NBA head coach for over 30 years. I'm working on my ballhandling against NBA players, Division I players and great players who are 25, 30 years old. I guard Al Horford every single day in practice. We go at it all the time and he's one of the best power forwards in the NBA. When I think about all this, it's amazing. God has given me this opportunity and I don't take it for granted. It just makes me want to go out, to keep working and to keep succeeding."
A terrific bonus for his future (one and done?) college is that he carries a superb 4.3 GPA on a 4.5 scale with accelerated courses. Towns, who averaged 12 points, 10 rebounds and 3.9 blocks, also was president of the freshman class.
