I shoulda had a "shorter" run this weekend to begin taper time for this upcoming marathon thing but I knew if I did that I woulda regretted it come May 20th because I would have tapered for 5 weeks or so and would feel totally unprepared instead of just semi-unprepared…
I know I coulda hurt myself running this morning or something but I figured that would just be a sign I need to wait to have my first marathon be a different one. Because really, what difference would a week make if I injured myself on a run? Probably nothing. Three weeks to heal versus two weeks to heal does not really seem like a huge thing to me and I know the confidence I have from my run this morning is worth so much more than "playing it safe." Sometimes you gotta live a little on the edge So instead I decided to tackle one more 20 miler and just be careful and call it quits if anything got sore or started feeling weird.
This ended up being the best decision I have made in training thus far. My run this morning went awesome! When I woke up this morning, it was POURING rain and there were storms in the forecast but I decided to not get all worked up about this until my planned departure time came. And you know what? The rain stopped and the wind died down right on time! I coulda stressed out about this but I did not. Instead I ended up with the perfect running conditions, 50ish degrees and light winds. Enough to not be cold but not be hot either. Also, the sun never fully peaked out so that helped keep things comfortable too!
I left at about 7:45am this morning and went out a 10ish mile loop with plans to stop back at the house to get a water and Gu refill. I am glad I ended up doing this because it gave me time to ask Sister to pick up a bag of ice for me for recovery and stretch a little and get more fluids and gels. After the brief break, it was off for another 9.2 mile loop!
To play things a little safe this morning, I decided to run 5 minutes and walk 1 minute. I am still surprised how much better this routine works for me! Time goes so much quicker for some reason even though I get a little confused about when to turn around, take a shot, etc. In theory, using the Galloway method shoulda slowed me down a little. I mean I spend 30+ minutes walking… but instead, it took me 10 minutes LESS than my last 20 miler! I woulda put up the splits so you could see them but um… I have a total of 66 laps from my run this morning because each walk/run interval counts as a lap. I wish I could readjust this at the end though… I might have to see if I can do anything about that!
My total time running this morning was 3:18, that is an average of 9:55! This shoulda felt like forever but once again I was surprised how time really does weird things when you are running. 3 hours at work would feel like forever but yet when I am running, time just goes by so fast! I would be lying if I said this did not give me just a little morsel of hope for finishing the marathon in less than 4:30. I really don't want to stress about finish time for my first ever full but it's hard to not do the math on this and see I would have about the perfect amount of time to finish a 10K if I could keep this pace the first 20 miles on the 20th. I guess only time will tell on this one but I will use it as a little bit of motivation!
I probably shoulda spent the time on this run pondering deep thoughts but instead of that, I spent many miles dreaming of my post run eats! One house I ran by was cooking breakfast potatoes and once I smelled them, that is all I could think about for a good 3-4 miles So of course, I spent the next 3-4 miles coming up with a way to celebrate Cinco de Mayo and also get my fried potatoes in!
I probably also shoulda tried to take a nap this afternoon to rest up for babysitting tonight but instead Sister and I went to the grocery store and watched a few episodes of Lost! Hopefully I can manage to stay awake long enough for the kids to fall asleep first tonight I feel oddly awake at the moment but that will likely fade…
In hindsight, this run coulda went really poorly and left me more freaked out about Marathon Day but instead I pulled off another awesome 20 mile run and am now slightly more confident in the fact I have trained enough to make it across the finish line on May 20th. Likely not in my secret goal time but that will just give me something to work for at the next marathon, right?
Now Taper Time officially begins! It's all downhill from here and soon I will be in Green Bay getting ready to cross a Marathon off my life list. I really find this hard to believe yet it's kind of starting to sink in now since this last training run is over. A few short runs this week, a semi-long (8-10 miler) run next weekend and then really easy runs the week of and I will be totally done with training! Crazy! Here goes nothing!

Sometimes the holes close up a little from paint and clear coat accumulation. I have had success running a drill in reverse with 5/16 bit to open them back up. I saw a Fender video, and the lady assembling effortlessly popped them in by hand, and I wondered if they could fall out again. I like them to press in tightly, I use a drill press (off) and chuck jaws appropriately set to press on the perimeter of the ferrule.
Great product. Fit perfectly. Sturdy
I think they look much more appealing than a traditional tailpiece.
As always the best stuff from Stew-Mac.Never had an issue with you guys or any product, you're simply the best!
Not much to say really.they look great.I didn't have access to a drill press and had a little bit of trouble getting the holes to line up exactly.A little jig of some kind would be helpful next time I use them.
They do the job, can't say much.
These string ferrules press in perfectly for all my string thru builds. No issues. Eric Cellini
adds to the tone very well
I find these ferrules to be of excelent quality and I would swear that their heavier size and weight helps improve sustain. They fit my 3/8" Forstner bit perfectly. The black is a little expensive but dispite the price I still prefer the 0196's over others that are available.
What StewMac needs to sell is a tool or bit that will route out the holes on the back of a guitar body in order to seat these ferrules properly. Alignment is crucial if your drill press does not reach.

Too much sodium in our diets has long been known to raise blood pressure and increase the risk of heart disease and stroke. A modeling study published in the journal Hypertension (Coxson, P.G., et al. 2013. Mortality Benefits From US Population-wide Reduction in Sodium Consumption: Projections From 3 Modeling Approaches) suggests that even a small reduction in sodium consumption could save hundreds of thousands of lives. I've been involved with a lot of research on the contamination of shallow aquifers from road salt (sodium chloride) runoff, but we typically focus on chloride and not sodium. Chloride is a conservative ion, so it travels in groundwater basically at the speed of the water, whereas sodium is more reactive and thus more difficult to predict in the subsurface. But sodium is definitely increasing in these aquifers. This sodium study got me wondering how much sodium we ingest through drinking water.
During the 2012 drought, the hot, dry conditions caused blooms of blue-green algae (also known as cyanobacteria) in some water bodies. These blooms can produce a toxin known as microcystin, which has a World Health Organization (WHO) drinking water standard of 20 µg/L. They can also foul the taste and odor of drinking water. Elgin and Aurora reported serious issues with algae in the Fox River in 2012, making the water difficult to treat. Here's what this stuff looks like:
(photo by Mike Bundren, Illinois EPA)
I was looking through the front section of The New York Times the other day (March 13, 2013), and there were several articles having to do with water and water quality. There was an article about the lack of potable water in India, including the depletion of some groundwater supplies. Another article told how public schools in New York City are saving large volumes of water as a result of replacing thousands of old toilets with low-flush models. There was also an op-ed piece about how the melting of ice in the Arctic Ocean is opening up sea lanes and what that might mean. But the article that really caught my attention was in the World Briefing section about how 6,000 dead pigs were found floating in the Huangpu River in China, which provides drinking water to Shanghai. Ugh.
We ask a lot of our wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). We expect them to clean up our sewage, so that the effluent that is returned to our water resources is environmentally benign. A century or more ago, the main goal was to prevent the spread of water-borne diseases, and treatment mainly consisted of dilution. Since that time, our environmental sensibilities have increased, and treatment techniques have been vastly improved to disinfect wastewater and remove pollutants to protect receiving waters. At first those pollutants were primarily limited to nutrients. Now we're asking WWTPs to remove other things. Any idea what this compound is?
A recent study investigated the cumulative effects of human activities on the health of the Great Lakes, and concluded that Lakes Erie, Ontario, and Michigan face the greatest threats, while Like Superior is the least threatened. The most stressed areas are along coastlines, especially near major metropolitan areas, which is not surprising. Threats include invasive species (especially zebra mussels and lampreys), climate change (affecting lake temperature and water levels), phosphorous from erosion of agricultural soils, and contaminants from urban areas. Stressed areas almost always have multiple stressors, complicating restoration efforts. The authors of the study note that restoration efforts in the Great Lakes are almost exclusively focused on high-stress sites, but almost never have information about the full range of stressors.
One of the first posts I wrote for this blog was that the quality of bottled water was no better than tap water. And now comes a study showing that, in fact, the quality of tap water may actually be BETTER than bottled water.
A paper just published in the journal Environmental Science & Technology (Chen et al. 2012, A Survey of Drug Resistance bla Genes Originating from Synthetic Plasmid Vectors in Six Chinese Rivers, vol. 46, pp. 13448−13454) reports on the detection of environmental microbes with antibiotic resistance genes in six rivers in China. Researchers have known for some time about drug-resistant bacteria in hospitals and nursing homes, where the large use of antibiotics has allowed such "superbugs" to proliferate. Infections caused by these drug-resistant bacteria can have very high death rates. In recent years, scientists have discovered that antibiotic resistance genes have been finding their way into the natural environment.
In a post last May, I wrote about the European Commission's intent to regulate the synthetic estrogen compound ethinyl estradiol (EE2) under the Water Framework Directive. According to a recent article in Nature, those regulations will be not approved by the European Parliament. Intense lobbying by the water and pharmaceutical industries has apparently convinced the European Union member states that the financial costs are too much.
How would you feel about drinking treated wastewater? Ick, right? But what if you were assured that it met all federal and state drinking water standards? Still doesn't sound too appetizing? If that's how you feel, you're not alone. Proposals to reuse treated wastewater as a drinking water have been consistently shot down in the U.S.
The movie "Bag It: Is your life too plastic?", which was shown at the Art Theater in Champaign last fall and which I reviewed, is again being shown in town. It will be at the Illinois Sustainable Technology Center (ISTC), 1 E. Hazelwood Drive, Champaign, on Thursday October 25, at 7:00 PM. It's located just west of the Research Park. Dr. B.K. Sharma, a senior chemist at the ISTC who is doing research on converting plastic bags into oil to potentially be used as fuel or lubricants, will give a 15 minute presentation before the film. Go!

I have pre ordered Rockstar on flipkart and i am hoping to this album soon in my hands....but the songs are already available on the net...i must say this album is going to go places...phir se ud chala..naadan parindey..sada haq...shehar se...hawa hawa...are mind blowing..rahman is back with a bang.i always wondered how this wizard comes with such sounds, so unique..mohit chauhan steals the show..way to go rahman..you make your fans proud of you..
Superb music...Sadda Haq is the new youth anthem of India and one of the most powerful song.Katiya Karoona is a punjabi folk song.
Don't miss Nadaan Parindey sung AR Rahman himself and its gonna be a huge hit.
AR Rahman always surprises with his compositions. This time he's surprised with Sheher Mein and it has a feel good factor.
Each and every track of Rockstar is a gem.
So rahman has done it,with compositions that are not such that they can be done by anyone, its only rahamn magik, he is the best.
Rockstar music all set to set charts ablaze....rock on...!!!!
Well..Being a keyboardist n sound mixing artist myself,i take ARR as my Jesus Christ..A person who inspired me to b a musician..who taught me so muchh..
This album is one more addition to his treasure of gems.
"Aur Ho" is typically rahmaniac..xperimental instrumentation,haunting and great chord progression..love it..
"Nadaan parinde" being in ARR's own voice n great percussion work by shivamani stands out as a terrific composition..great song indeed.
"Katiya karun" is a verrrry sweeet song..folkish feeling n some funfilled punjabi loops..its a bit unusual specially when u listen to it for the first time..bt as u keep listening to it..it gets adddictive..
"tango for taj" again a very nice instrumental number..great piano work..
n finally
Both male n female versions of "TUM KO" sounds very romantic n Soulful..great mixing..kudos to kavita ji n mohit chauhan..
scaling mixing..this album delivered everything..
AR Rahman does it again..JAI HO!!!

Hmm. I noticed Lillian Thorne also encountered a similar problem with her shop.
I just attempted to add a small image into my OP for my OOC, and I got a warning that I had too many images. The message said I had 29 images and no more than 20 were allowed per post, which I thought was strange because A) it hadn't stopped me on this thread 8 images prior and B) I know several other threads run by myself and friends that have stored way more images in one post (for CS's and the like) without any complications.
Is this a new feature? It seems rather counter productive to me, if it is...

It's an image throttle due to the graphic image spam we were having issues with. I'll up the limit a little.
>.> I know quite a number of people store images in their OP or something of the like. Flames keeps a thread for his CS's for Arin Atrius, Kaga does the same thing for Data Spell, and Zelph keeps all our CS's for TJA4 on the second post....
And I imagine plenty of shops have plenty of graphics stored for reference to their previous work and to make the shop look nice....
I see a lot of inconvenience emerging from this new limit...

My mistake if I'm wrong, but shouldn't it be possible to only limit certain sections of the site? An image limit at all has the potential to cause issues in RP OOC's, plus CS threads, Galleries/shops, etc... so if the issue is spam, can't you just place an image limit on spam/off-topic?
Nvm, I get it now.
I think it was put up as a result of our latest string of porn gifs that were placed all over the site, not just in spam so limiting a section wouldn't help with this. Contra did say she would up the limit, it is probably just the price we will all pay to avoid such charming spam in the future.

The High Court's Labour Division has said it will rule on the case pitting the government against the Tanzania Teachers Union tomorrow.
High Court, Judge Sophia Wambura who was hearing the submissions of the two sides, after the government filed a case to stop the strike, told reporters yesterday after more than six hours of hearing, that she will give the ruling tomorrow.
The government was represented by Principal State Attorney Obadia Kameya while teachers were represented by their lawyer Gabriel Mnyele.
Meanwhile on the second day of the strike, a survey has shown that while some teachers have not reported to school at all, others have were at the school permises, but were not teaching.
More pupils and students marched to government offices and police stations yesterday to seek for their rights to be taught.
There were reports of arrests and harassments of teachers and leaders of their union by security organs in various parts of the country.
Some have been arrested for persuading others to support the strike.
A survey by The Guardian has revealed that a big number of teachers were supporting the strike while some government officials at the regional and districts levels are trying to break it.
In Dar es Salaam pupils and students claimed that they have not seen teachers in their classes since morning.
"They are not teaching. They just report and stay in groups outside," pupils at Mapambano primary school in Kinondoni district claimed. Reports from Kilimanjaro region said police has promised to protect all teachers who are willing to resume work. The regional police commander, Robert Boaz said the force will deal with those breaking the law including the use of schoolchildren to march in demand for their rights.
Reports from Mbeya said four TTU leaders were arrested by police for mobilising other teachers to continue with the strike.
The Mbeya regional police commander, Athuman Diwani told reporters that the suspects were encouraging teachers to take part in their strike. In Ruvuma, Songea district, the regional commissioner, Said Mwambungu warned primary, secondary and college teachers against striking.
TTU in Mwanza region blamed police for arresting teachers taking part in the strike. The TTU secretary for Mwanza region Issac Chaushi told this paper that he received reports of teachers being harassed and apprehended by police in various schools and districts.
Reports from Kagera said there was a good turnup of teachers in some of the schools who were seen teaching. The Bukoba district education officer, Gregory Fabian told this paper that he found many teachers back in classes after a visit he paid to their schools.
TTU president Gratian Mukoba said yesterday that the strike will continue until the government listened to their claims.

13348-13352 Beach Ave.
Marina Del Rey, CA 90292
Monday May 27, 2013 The Inosanto Academy Will Be Closed In Observance Of Memorial Day.
Memorial Day, originally called Decoration Day, is a day of remembrance for those who have died in our nation's service.
Please remember and honor all those brave men and women who have sacrificed to protect our liberties and our lives so that we could be safe from harm.
This Memorial Day, share the feeling of pride and the spirit of freedom gifted by the true sons and daughters of America.
We are all climbing different paths through the mountain of life, and we have all experienced much hardship and strife. There are many paths through the mountain of life, and some climbs can be felt like the point of a knife. Some paths are short and others are long, who can say which path is right or wrong? The beauty of truth is that each path has its own song, and if you listen closely you will find where you belong. So climb your own path true and strong, but respect all other truths for your way for them could be wrong. - Dan Inosanto

Recently Marvel has played with having Fury recruit a couple of powered agents. About time. But why not take it a step further? A SHIELD team, put together solely of agents in special gear/costumes… using the items of power that supervillains have lost to them over the years.
How often has the Vulture been busted? That freaky Harness grants him flight, super strength, and armour/durability. He's a freakin' bald old jerk who actually managed to kick Spider-Man around like a rusty tin can once or twice. Imagine what that harness could do on some jacked, highly-trained agent! Like Reed Richards or Tony Stark couldn't figure that out. (And why haven't they given a copy to Sam Wilson/the Falcon?)
Or the Wrecker's crowbar. Like Doctor Strange couldn't have figured out a way to transfer that to another owner. Super-strength, moderate invulnerability, and the ability to hit like a truck with a giant, unbreakable crowbar. In the hands of a dumb construction worker, it turned him into a threat. Trained agent? Hell, yeah!
The Beetle's armour. Blizzard's cryogenic battlesuit. The list goes on and on.

Series with Penguins should be a nasty one for Flyers
As much of a borebath as the 4-2 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins was Saturday, Game 1 of the Flyers' first-round playoff series with the Penguins promises to be a splash party of another sort.
And a bloody good one, at that.
"I'm sure it's going to be a battle," Scott Hartnell said of this intra-Commonwealth playoff meeting, the second between the teams in four springs. "It's going to be a chess match. It's going to be hard and it's going to be intense. I'm sure there will be a lot of blood and a lot of goals. ... Hopefully we come out on the right side."
Though a Penguins team not too terribly different from this one defeated a Flyers team a lot different from this one in a first-round playoff series in 2009, the Flyers are confident they can come out on top against a team that boasts of two of the world's best offensive hockey players, MVP-to-be Evgeni Malkin and apparently healthy Sidney Crosby.
Don't get the idea the Flyers are overconfident, however.
"I think it's going to be a tough series," Claude Giroux said. "It won't be easy. They want to win as bad as us. We're a young team with a lot of energy. We have to make sure we go out there and we outwork the Penguins."
As illustrated by the R-rated movie of a hockey game they played two Sundays ago at CONSOL Energy Center, no matter how the first couple of games go in Pittsburgh Wednesday and Friday nights, they promise to be entertaining.
Those between increasingly bitter rivals often are at this time of year.
"I think being in the same state has something to do with it," Hartnell said. "Pittsburgh don't like us and vice-versa. Hopefully, we can do a good job of negating their top guys, take care of business and move on."
Hartnell pointed out that backup goalie Sergei Bobrovsky seemed to own the Penguins — going 5-0 at Consol before he served in Saturday's loss — though players on both sides seemed to count that as an exhibition. Continued...
"You love coming into these buildings where the fans despise you," Hartnell added. "You know you're going to get a tough game. Playoffs are the best time of year."
One big difference in the Flyers' play of late, when they came back to get on the hot Penguins' heels until the final week, was the play of starting goalie Ilya Bryzgalov, who twice won the NHL's first star of the week award down the stretch.
"We know he's going to be working and give ourselves a chance to win every game," Giroux said of Bryzgalov. "If he does do that, we have to make sure we help him. When Bryz plays well he gives us confidence to go on the offense and score some goals."
"It's a couple of the best goalies in the league on both squads," Hartnell said. "Both (defenses) are playing really well and we have a lot of guys that can score on both sides of the puck."
Back in 2009, it was Max Talbot on the Penguins' side of the puck, serving as a checking line agitator against the likes of Jeff Carter and Mike Richards.
Now Talbot is on the Flyers' side of the ice, hoping Giroux and Danny Briere — who missed the last three games of the season with back spasms — take care of what they're supposed to take care of.
That way, Talbot and stingy youngster Sean Couturier can work on what they do best — denying people like Malkin and Crosby the puck.
"It's going to be whistle to whistle hockey," Talbot said. "Both teams have great special teams. The power play we know during the playoffs is a big part of the game, so we have to make sure we're disciplined, for sure.
"It's a hard battle. Intense hockey. I'm up for it. I'm ready for it."
So are the Penguins, of course. A team that could only win twice this season in six games against the Flyers, but one that many people still feel is capable of coming out of the East. Continued...
"We're not big fans of the players on the other side," Giroux said. "They have a lot of players that can make plays and score goals, so we have to make sure we're responsible defensively.
"They're pretty good all around, and so are we. It's going to be who wants it more."

July 27, 2028 — The Supreme Court today struck down Massachusetts' ban on ray gun possession, ruling that the Second Amendment guarantees an individual's right to disintegrate another in self defense.
The court's landmark 5 to 4 decision split along ideological grounds and was the most significant defense of the Second Amendment since the justices struck down the District of Columbia's ban on handguns 20 years ago.
"We hold that the states's ban on ray gun possession in the home violates the Second Amendment right to bear any kind of arms, whether that be a simple handgun or an anti-matter pistol," Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. wrote. He was joined by Chief Justice John G. Roberts and Justices Clarence Thomas, Mitt Romney and Judy Sheindlin.
In a dissent, Justice Calista Flockhart said the decision "threatens to throw into doubt the constitutionality of ray gun laws throughout the United States," and said countless Americans could end up being obliterated in ray gun violence.
Flockhart's remarks marked the first dissenting opinion she has written since former President Oprah Winfrey appointed the former actress to the high court in 2023. Flockhart said her role on the 1990s television series Ally McBeal inspired her to pursue her law degree.
Flockhart was joined in her dissent by Justices John Edwards, Lance Ito and Marcia Clark.
At least 16 states have passed laws banning possession of ray guns since the weapons entered the market in 2021. Opponents of such laws say they deny the individual's right to protect themselves from burglars, gangs and muggers. But supporters of the laws say they actually are used mainly on supervisors in the workplace – typically in cases where an employee wants his or her boss to disappear.

Here's my situation: sometimes for my workouts I drink a protein shake after in order to ensure my body has adequate protein. Also sometimes I'll drink a protein shake at night on days the workout is really intense (at night I drink Muscle Milk the natural version).
Since the paleo diet forbids dairy, what do you use after your workouts or before going to bed to make sure you're getting enough protein? During the day I don't always have enough time for a meal plus since they're in liquid form protein shakes usually deliver protein that can be rapidly assimilated into your body, which is important after working out. Thanks

XSM introduces business consultancy and web development packages to help small businesses make the best use of the internet. More information can be availed on http://www.connecttotheworld.com/.
Denver, Colorado (PRWEB) December 12, 2012
A survey conducted by Citibank on small businesses found many of them fail to make the best use of the internet, or are unable to optimize its use. The survey found that many of the business owners found that the medium is not time and cost effective.
"The perception is that these channels are expensive and time-consuming, but the reality is there are simple ways to reach current and prospective customers online. Small businesses have a great opportunity to leverage online tools and social media to market their businesses and to help drive growth," said Tracey Weber, Citibank's Managing Director of Internet and Mobile for North America Consumer Banking. She added, "Today, the web is the first place consumers go for information on products and services,"
The survey also found that only 70% of the small businesses had a website. With the growing trend of the internet, XSM introduced web development services to help small businesses make the best use of the internet. Since many of the owners of the businesses might be unfamiliar with the latest tools available on the internet and the various internet marketing strategies, XSM provides techniques on how to optimize the use of the internet.
XSM is one of the fastest growing online based business which has catered to the needs of about 30 plus businesses this year alone. It ensures unique strategic plans are devised in order to help small businesses grow and increase their market share. Much of XSM's work can be found on its website http://www.connecttotheworld.com/ where it showcases its past work along with its web development packages. Along with educating businesses about the internet and helping them make an online presence, it also provides business consultancy services on how to optimally build a brand online. The packages have recently been updated to suit the needs of businesses and can be found on http://www.connecttotheworld.com/.

Antivirus software reviews are varied and there are many anti-virus programs available in the market. Through these reviews users are able to get the well-known and reputed software programs available. Any anti-virus should be easy and convenient enough for any user. Such kind of reviews should give users a clear guide on available the antivirus program and downloads, and if possible where to find them. These reviews are a product of professionalisms put by individuals who have taken their time to test the effectiveness of each single antivirus program.
In doing these, the professionals are out to find the weak and strong points of each antivirus program as they take time to research and try them out individually. Operating Systems like Mac are known to have their own anti-virus programs. This aside, compatibility is one of the features that the professionals consider, before going out and giving the public any review regarding a product. Some of these products despite their effectiveness are little known and can only find their place amongst users through such reviews. Antivirus software reviews are usually a clear picture of the features available and the effectiveness of a particular product.
Through such antivirus software reviews, manufacturers have the chance to get back to the drawing board and improve where their weak points as notably stated. Antivirus programs like Kaspersky, Norton, Eset have this year (2011) surprised their users with better products. They did improve their products using comments made in earlier reviews regarding their products in the market. Such reviews apart from the noted effects, they have brought to their users; they are also considered one of the best marketing tools for such programs. The reviews in their effort to bring out the best in these products, also bring out the available free downloads for those who are willing to try them out.
Antivirus software reviews, bring with them the advantage of allowing users to choose from a variety of programs. Threats like Trojans, if not attended to from the beginning are able to clear a computer from all its data. While going though such reviews, a user is able to find that some of the software comes with software programs that effectively handle and dislodge these offending horses from any computers hard disk. It is only through such reviews that one can give their computer a new lease of live. Computers are our source of livelihood and there is need to keep them from the marauding threats.
Through such reviews, users are able to find other effective programs that can be used in keeping their computer programs up-to date. Programs like MacAfee stingers, which are little known among computer users, can only be got through such reviews. Through such reviews users of other applications, like the android, iPod, iPhone, can learn which best ways to protect their priceless properties. The reviews are not only meant for computer users, they are meant for those who spend considerable time on the internet. They either use the internet to download music, surf, play games or chart with their friends. The antivirus software reviews is definitely an answer in saving their applications.

What Can I Plant Under Pine Trees?
I've been asked this several times and last week I responded off the top of my head azaleas, rhododendrons, hydrangeas, and some types of berries. But then I got to thinking.... it would be nice to be able to plant a bigger variety of things under pines, since that understory of empty space seems like such a wasteland. I did some online research and came up with many choices and some that I will definitely try!
But first I need to warn anyone that is considering this - you need to commit to doing a lot of watering. If you have one of these stately trees in your yard go take a look at the ground under them. It's probably very very dry. Pine trees tend to have roots that grow just under the soil in order to soak up as much moisture as they can. This means that anything you plant under them will compete for the water the tree needs. You really need to water a lot, in fact leaving a soaker hose out there and turning it on frequently is the best option. Leave the pine needles there as they make great mulch and contribute to the acid that these plants thrive in.

by Ravi Popat I have been homeless for almost 18 years. Or maybe, I should call it "homeland-less." I am a citizen of France, was born in England,...
Between watching Homeland and Zero Dark Thirty, you could be forgiven for thinking our nation's defense and counterterrorism operations are run by rail thin, whip-smart blonde women and a cadre of loyal but less brilliant men.
Mad Men is back, and I'm glad. Even though the two-part premiere episode wasn't perfect, it brought some keen acting, sharp dialogue, and stunning visuals. And it brought the show fully into the beginning of the fire that consumed the late 1960s.
This week, The Israel Film Center Festival opens in New York City with over a dozen premiere Israeli films. Over the last decade, Israel has become a major international player in the world of film.
A certain beautiful princess once announced to the world there were three people in her marriage. I have to confess something along the same lines. Except one of the three people in our marriage has four legs and a tail.
The days of traditional entertainment houses capitalizing on veteran's stories may soon be doomed. Doomed may be the wrong word used here however, the point is, traditional entertainment houses better beware. Veterans are on to something very unique.
Though Ray Winstone has been a TV star in Great Britain since the mid-1970s, a lot of Americans got their first sighting of the beefy British actor with Gary Oldman's 1997's Nil By Mouth or 2000's Sexy Beast.
Once upon a time, "homeland" was a word of little significance in the American context. There was a reason: "homeland" had a certain ring to it and anyone would have known at once just what that ring, that resonance, was.
On Valentine's Day, we often hear glorified versions of great and enduring love, Hollywood romances, soaring passion. We even put names and faces to them -- Tracey and Hephurn, Liz and Dick, Brad and Angelina and their expanding brood. This is the stuff of fantasy!
The history of inter-connectedness between culture, media and US interests in the Middle East offers a great contextual window into the ways in which the entertainment industry at once mimics and solidifies foreign policy.
According to bootleg scripts for the upcoming season, the White House will express its strong preference that all investigative activity be centralized under the umbrella of the Commission. Consequently, other investigative bodies will, naturally, insist on doing their own thing.
When you are a hammer, everything looks like a nail. When you are a parent, everything sounds like a parenting message.
Unfortunately, while women have made great strides in the realm of foreign policy, they remain underrepresented across the intelligence, defense and security community.
Year-end lists are a holiday tradition along the lines of mistletoe and eggnog. Some people love it and some people hate it, but like clockwork, every year critics and viewers alike start listing the shows that were naughty and the ones that were nice.
Not to trivialize the brutal killings of the children and school personnel in Connecticut on December 14th. Not at all. I was shocked, saddened, worri...
It was always about drones. Almost everyone in "Homeland" has been piloted by something or someone else, at one time or another.

With Halloween around the corner, this DragonCon video, chronicling the recent convention in Atlanta over Labor Day weekend, might give you some ideas. It's one of the few places you'll see Spider-Man, Catwoman and Steampunk detectives in one place.
The video was fittingly edited over DJ Panic City's remix of "Rel Hero." Cosplayers might get a reputation for being geek-tendencies but this celebration looks pretty damn epic. The team is also preparing an extra long video that will include the convention's parade coverage.
Watch it here:
Sarah Hyland
What she's wearing: The Modern Family actress showed up to the 6th Annual Power of Youth Event in Los Angeles, California in a floral Zimmermann dress.
Why we love it: The draping on the bottom half takes this floral dress to the next level since it adds a contrasting texture to the look. The draping technique continues to the back of the dress making for a pleasant surprise when Hyland turns around — it goes from sweet floral dress to a total knockout stunner! She paired it with Brian Atwood shoes in a cobalt colour and a matching Kotur clutch that both bring out the blues in the dress.
Takeaway: Pick a floral dress with interesting design elements instead of just basing your choice on the print itself. If you took away the print from this dress and remade it into a solid fabric, the dress would still be hot.
Kate Middleton
What she's wearing: The Duchess of Cambridge arrived in the Solomon Islands in a bright geometric Jonathan Saunders dress during her royal tour of Southeast Asia.
Why we love it: If only everybody looked like this while getting off a plane! Then again, there's usually not a red carpet waiting for you on the tarmac when you get off. We're suckers for bold geometric prints and this dress has that in spades! Plus it's in a unique colour combination of aqua, forest-green, and white, which makes it stand out and makes it fun. She accents the look with cream accessories: the heels, the clutch and hat (the Brits sure do love a good hat!).
Takeaway: When wearing bold prints, accessorize with neutral items to minimize the in-your-face quality of the bold print. The neutral accessories will really let the print stand out.

I started to make this post a poll, but I knew how the poll would turn out. The poll question would have been: "Do you do a good job of ministering to the wealthy people associated with your church?" Most of the pastors I know do a great job of ministering to the poor -- the poorer the better. Most don't do as well ministering to the wealthy. Many times, they don't even realize who the wealthy people are.
I am aware of several instances when people died and left multi-million dollar estates and no one in their church even knew they were wealthy.
If I understand the scripture correctly, people who are wealthy need to be generous -- not because the church needs their money. They need to be generous for their own spiritual health. An effective pastor will identify who in the congregation needs encouragement toward generosity.
Several times I have recommended the book, "The Millionaire Next Door." Jeremy Scott just pointed out to me that it is now available on Amazon for $2.99 as a Kindle download -- even cheaper if you buy a used copy in print. This book will help a pastor have a better understanding of who is wealty and who isn't. The book is several years od, so the data is not current. Still, I believe the insights would be helpful to pastors.

PicShop would have to be my favourite for touching up. Photo Studio (Free) is great for adding for frames, although for more frame options you have to buy the paid one. Similar situation with PicShop, but if you want you can just use the free ones... Freely.

The (very good) Pixlr online has an offline counterpart named Sumo Paint Air (paying but cheap). To my knowledge it's the only one app that allows you to correct photos with a luminance intensity Curves tool, which for me is indispensable to any serious processing*. Now, Pixlr definitely is not a native app, and this is very visible: minuscule controls, some not working (the clone tool involves a control-click to define the source area...)
I use Sumo Paint air with an Adonit jot pro stylus (to aim precisely) whenever I need Curves, otherwise my preferred are Photo Studio (android port, which is a clear advantage here because it allows easy handling of separate photo folders) and Photo Editor Ultimate Free (same comment).
Beware there are other clones of Pixlr that look like they are offline while it is not the case; be sure to check before buying. (and if the situation has changed don't hesitate to repost here )
And if you buy a native app be sure to verify it won't just use the Playbook default file picker, otherwise when asking to "open" you'll see all the tablet photos, flat-presented, after what can be a very long scan delay as soon as you have more than a dozen: just unusable.

Wizards 90, 76ers 87: John Wall scored 16 points - including the last six of the game - and Emeka Okafor added 12 points and 16 rebounds as host Washington rallied to send Philadelphia to its 10th straight road loss.
The Wizards trailed 87-84 after Thaddeus Young's jumper with 2:10 left, but Wall knocked down an 18-footer to cut into the lead, hit a pair of free throws to put Washington ahead and buried another jumper with 4.4 seconds left to help seal it. Philadelphia's Dorell Wright missed a 3-pointer for the tie at the buzzer.
Martell Webster also scored 16 points and Nene had 15 points and nine rebounds for Washington. Wright scored 15 points off the bench and Jrue Holiday, Spencer Hawes and Young each scored 14 for Philadelphia.
It was tight throughout the first half, as the Wizards took a 50-49 lead into halftime. The lead changed hands four more times early in the third quarter before a Bradley Beal 3-pointer and a Wall layup put Washington ahead 62-57.
Washington's lead was as large as 10 in the third quarter and eight in the fourth before the Sixers stormed back. Holiday grabbed an offensive rebound and hit a 3-pointer from the corner to cap a 9-0 run that put Philadelphia ahead 83-82 with 4:26 left.
GAME NOTEBOOK: Beal rolled his left ankle after landing awkwardly with 2:08 left. He had to be carried to the locker room and did not return. Beal scored 14 points. … Hawes also had 11 rebounds and Evan Turner had 11 points and 10 boards for Philadelphia. … The Sixers have lost 10 straight on the road for the first time since Nov. 17-Dec. 16, 2006.
