Thank you
This could be useful for your friend who can't move his neck at work.
Those exercises in the content helped my friend recover from his neck pain. I came to know that most the people us, uk, australia are experiencing the same neck injuries that my friend has been suffering. To help those i thought of writing an article on "how to strengthen neck muscles" Hope this link will helpful one for most of them. Hey nicholas was this content a useful one...??
Hi there,
I visited the website which had the exercises to help strengthen your neck muscles. So far I have found them to be very good because it also allows you to stretch our your neck at the same time.
This article has been published after a 3 months long survey...... i am grateful that my article has been a sucess..... Thank you all for your response
If you have any more articles on the way make sure that you let us know. I sit at a desk 5 days a week for 8 hours a day and to have a break and being able to stretch my neck really helps.
i grew up in Zimababwe and we used to use the exact same excerise as part of our warm up and warm down before and after sports, i guess it is good see that it is a recommended excercise.
I have published articles on the symptoms of Brain Tumors, Blood cancer, Acid reflux these articles were also appreciated. But beaware this site is totally a commercial... Visit only if your interested..!!!!!

... This week in Metro Denver weather history...
20-27 in 2002... lightning sparked a wildfire near Deckers. Extremely
dry conditions and very strong winds the following day
allowed the fire... known as the Schoonover... to consume 3850
acres before it could be contained. Thirteen structures
were destroyed... including 4 homes... resulting in 2.2 million
dollars in damage.

snow over the Front Range foothills. Conifer picked up
10 inches of new snow; Aspen Springs... 9 inches; and
Central City... 8 inches. The sticky... heavy snow clung to
power lines and pulled tree branches down... causing power
outages to about 1200 homes in the Conifer area. It took
up to 6 hours to restore power to some residences.
Lightning struck a telephone data Cabinet in Conifer on
the 25th... which knocked out phone service to about 1500
customers. Widespread rain fell across Metro Denver...
where rainfall totaled 2.07 inches at the site of the
former Stapleton International Airport and 1.66 inches at
Denver International Airport where north winds gusted to

In 2010... high winds preceding a cold front... swept across
the Front Range foothills and urban corridor. In Aurora...
the wind damaged the roof of rangeview High School. In
Conifer and Denver... the wind downed trees and power
lines and caused several brief outages. The downed
power lines also caused several cars to catch fire in
the vicinity of 1590 Cook St. In Denver. Peak wind gusts
included: 82 mph at Highlands Ranch... 67 mph... 4 miles
east of Franktown and longmont; 65 mph in Boulder... 64 mph

moorings... which allowed it to roll onto a grassy field at
Front Range Airport near Watkins.
In 2010... severe thunderstorms pounded parts of the urban
corridor with very large hail... heavy rain... damaging winds
and a tornado. The hail... ranging in size from 1 inch to
2 3/4 inches in diameter... struck Brighton... Commerce City
and northeast Denver the hardest. The storms continued to
spread destruction to the north and east... impacting
Byers... Hudson... Deer Trail and Prospect Valley. The
combination of hail and wind stripped the bark and
branches from trees. Numerous accidents were reported
as the hail accumulated up to a foot deep. Snowplows
were called out to clear the roadways. Flash flooding
occurred along State Highway 52 between Hudson and
Keenesburg... and forcing the closure of the Highway.

Meadowlands... bike paths... roads near streams... and other
low lying areas. No significant property damage was
reported and crop damage was unknown. Rainfall totaled

International Airport and only 1.51 inches at Denver
International Airport.
27 in 1874... an apparent thunderstorm gust front reached the

lightning strike as they stood under a tree in the city of
denver's Washington Park.
In 1987... 7/8 inch diameter hail fell near Castle Rock.

trees. A second tornado (f1) touched down in Northglenn
and moved into Thornton damaging a group of self storage
garages... several vehicles... a wooden fence... several trees...
and the roof of an auto parts store. No injuries were

widespread flooding over the South Platte river basin.
Rainfall was heaviest in the foothills where 5 to 8
inches were measured over the 4 days. Heavy rainfall
west of Boulder flooded mining towns and damaged mining
properties. In the canyons above Boulder... railroads
and roads were washed out along with many bridges. The
floodwaters spread into central Boulder and covered a
wide area from University hill north to near Mapleton
hill to a maximum depth of 8 feet. Many houses were
swept away... and every bridge in Boulder was destroyed.
A few people... trapped in their homes by the floodwaters...
had to be rescued. However... the gradual rise of the flood
waters resulted in only one death. Boulder Creek spread to
a width of nearly one mile in The Pasture land to the east
of Boulder. Extensive flooding on Left Hand creek north
of Boulder washed away Railroad and wagon bridges. The
heavy cloudbursts caused flooding on Bear Creek... which
washed away bridges... Railroad tracks... and structures and
destroyed the canyon roadway. Morrison sustained the
heaviest flood damage on Bear Creek. In Denver... rainfall
totaled only 1.50 inches on the 30th and 31st... but the
heavy rainfall on upstream tributaries of the South Platte
river caused the river to rise as much as 10 feet above the
low water mark in the city... which caused some flooding of
pasture land downstream to a depth of 6 feet near Brighton.

Ridge caused flooding of roads and basements. Water was
several feet deep in some yards. Many streets were
temporarily closed. Hail as large as 1 inch in diameter
fell in Wheat Ridge. Hail piled up to 2 feet deep in some
low lying areas of east and southeast Denver. Snowplows
were employed to remove the hail. Stapleton International
Airport... where west winds gusted to 39 mph... received 1.51
inches of rain and hail... which forced the closure of the
runways for an hour. Hail stones to 3/4 inch in diameter

a funnel cloud and 1/2 inch diameter hail. As the storm
moved northeast of the city... a large tornado touched down
near east 59th Ave and tower Road and was on the ground for
20 minutes. It demolished a 60-foot-long cinderblock cow
shed... tore a wall from a machinery shed... tore shingles off
the roof of a farmhouse nearby... and felled 12 trees on one
farm. A boy in a feed shed 20 feet from a destroyed
building was not injured.
In 1977... 3/4 to 1 inch diameter hail fell at or near
Stapleton International Airport. One inch to baseball

In 1989... Golf Ball size hail fell at the Junction of I-25 and
I-225. One inch diameter hail fell in Littleton.
In 1990... a line of severe thunderstorms crossed Metro Denver...
producing wind gusts to 60 mph and scattered areas of
pea to Marble size hail. Small trees and branches were
blown down by the strong thunderstorm winds... which also
caused minor power outages across southern and eastern
sections of Metro Denver. The strong winds uprooted a 25-
to 30-foot tree in the acres green subdivision of northern
Douglas County. The tree blocked a busy street for several
hours. A pilot reported hail as large as 1 1/2 inches in
diameter covering the ground near the north end of a runway
at Stapleton International Airport. Heavy rain caused a

This is the assembly used to house the Cricut® cutting blade. To adjust the blade depth, locate the adjustment knob on top of your cutting blade housing and turn it to the desired setting from one to six. The smaller the number the shorter the blade depth will be.
Click here to read product details
The original blade housing was metal and PC went to this plastic version. It feels cheap and looks cheap in the machine. I am very disappointed they chose to go to a plastic housing.
I had to have my original E replaced when the new one came it had this housing in it. The housing seems to drag and keep the blade from cutting any type of paper cleanly. I have recalibrated my machine but still continually have trouble with this plastic housing. The original metal one gave a much smoother cut.
I had the original personal cricut then wanted to upgrade the the expression. I am so disappointed that PC went cheap on the blade housing. I do notice that the cutting isn't as crisp. I wish I could get a free metal blade housing replacement as I am not a completely satisfied with my new cricut
My son gave me a Cricut as a gift. Took it to scrapbook retreat with 5 other machines and experienced users. Noticed my cuts were horrible compared to their metal housing with my plastic housing. Ladies tried everything, just not going to cut. Ruined my weekend-disappointed my son :( contacted Cricut, shipping new housing, not feeling good about it.
I'm so disappointed with the plastic housing that came with my Expression. Just found out recently that my machine should and would cut better with a metal housing. What to do???
Nothing else to say...this plastic case sucks. I got a new machine expression machine and couldn't figure out why my shapes weren't cutting right. Now I see why.
Well, well, well! I am not the only sucker. I am new to all of the and when I got my Expression after using my personal cutter, found it would not cut right out of the box! Call PC and was told I had to "sync" it to make it cut. I wasn't sent a cord in the package so waited 9 days for the cord to arrive. when it did, it would accept the ""sync" why? b/c it wasn't an Expression Imagine! Of course now I have wasted all of this time, called again, they tried to reset it , found I needed a new housing for the blade, said they would send one, and I got an empty envelope! NO BLAD HOUSING!! Called again, 5th call in one month for one machine to work,a bit excessive, still waiting for the housing to arrive. Hope this one will work when it gets here!
Well I have an E2 and had been cutting really well. About a month ago it stopped cutting deep enough to actually cut anything out. I have the blade depth at 6 and still nothing. Called and complained to Provocraft about the plastic blade housing. They sent me a new one and much to my amazement it was the metal housing. WOW. What a difference. The plastic blade housing made the blade jump up and down thus not cutting. The metal one is awesome and now I can use my E2. They really should get rid of the lousy plastic housing. Think about it Provocraft.
i also am having ytouble with my new Expression machine cutting any type of paper i even got new blades and just got machine in Dec could not under stand why it would not cut only used a few times even got a new cuttting mat still having same problem so realy need new metal houseing plastic just not working my old machine had a metal and worked real good let daughter have it still cuts great but my expression does not so help need new houseing
I've taught Cricut classes for years & a number of my students have had serious problems with their plastic housings - the majority of those assemblies have had the internal 'steel' blade holder [the cylinder inside] not line up with the plastic hole in the assembly. Therefore the blade is rubbing ever so slightly against the outer plastic - which doesn't let the blade swivel properly for finely detailed cuts.... I have yet to see a metal blade assembly with this problem.
This piece of equipment is absolutely terrible. It actually makes me hate my Cricut machine, but it suddenly does not work properly anymore. This new housing is made of cheap plastic rather than the quality metal that originally came with my machine. It tears the paper, has uneven cutting pressure, and basically makes my machine worthless. I have had my machine for 5 years, and just replaced the housing unit for the blade recently. I adjusted every setting possibly trying to troubleshoot and make it actually cut without ruining my paper. No luck. Big fail on this one Cricut. You need to bring the metal ones back! People are going to think that your machines are poor quality because this one vital piece is trash.

If you already know that water won't run uphill and how to handle a drill, you can do this. The most ingenious part of the design is the hose-to-barrel connection. Since the attached hose will frequently be tugged during normal use, it is important to use a mechanical connection rather than a glued connection.
This design uses a simple garden hose washer, standard garden hose parts, and a special adapter, that's not really all that special. It's expandable and useful for more than just capturing rain water.

Also, while in town, pick up a garden hose valve, garden hose washer, and a MHT to FPT 3/4" plastic adapter. What? MHT = Male Hose Thread. FPT = Female Pipe Thread. Plastic = plastic. You'll know it when you see it. Less than $10 total.
I had some old parts handy to draw from.
The gutter modification comes later.

Here are some of the hottest babes snapping pictures of themselves in their mirror and wearing next to nothing. Most of these babes are in a bikini or bra and panties, and some of them are using their arms to cover their boobs, which means things are heating up.
As if ice cream didn't already have a heck of a time surviving in this summer heat now it has to contend with the sizzling sirens too. There are chicks in bikinis and other skimpy outfits getting ice cream all over themselves in this sticky but very sexy collection.
Now that the weekend is behind us it is time to look back at those two wonderful days and see what some of the more sexy gals were up to. These ladies dressed up in some of their skimpier outfits and showed off their best sides as they hung out over the weekend.
This sexy Polish model has brought together lingerie, a saxophone, and a drinking location for this unique photos shoot. Wearing all kinds of lovely lingerie outfits, from a hot pink thong to a black number, she would really turn heads in any local bar.
Some people became too excited with the Queensland Rail etiquette campaign launched in Australia and made their own versions of the company's posters.
She put on a white bikini before grabbing her trusty soccer ball for these tantalizing photos. This Italian model looks good in just about anything she wears but she has an especially sexy look when she dons a skimpy bikini and heads to the sunny park.
Dakimakura, which means "the hug pillows", are the sort of orthopedic pillows with life-size pictures of anime girls on them meant to be embraced during a bedtime by those who suffer from loneliness.
While seeing this fitness maven in a bikini is nothing new these photos are different because she is celebrating her 37th birthday and the launch of her book. Lee is wearing a sparkly purple bikini that leaves almost nothing to the imagination.
A fully grown wild leopard has fallen into water reservoir tank near an Indian village. Forest guards threw a net into a tank for the animal to grab and escape.
Wearing a floral bikini while frolicking in a Miami beach this reality TV star and author was not afraid to show off her supple pale skin. You can see her lovely long legs and plenty of butt shots as she takes a dip and comes out soaking wet.

Saint John Vianney Principal Steven C. DiMezza said today that the school is investigating an incident that occurred Wednesday during a boy's basketball game vs. Red Bank Regional High School in Holmdel.
"Inappropriate comments were made with regards to the loss of RBR student, Albert Martin," DiMezza said in a statement posted to the school website. "False rumors about chanting began circulating on social media sites.
"Matters such as this one are taken very seriously at Saint John Vianney High School," siad DiMezza. "We are in cooperation with the Holmdel Township Police Department and Red Bank Regional High School. Please be assured we will continue to work toward a resolution of this incident.
DiMezza continued, "Saint John Vianney High School understands and is very sensitive to the loss of a student as we have had three losses in the past few years. One individual's insensitive comments are not a reflection of our feelings at SJVHS."
RBR students took to Twitter following the Dec. 19 game in Holmdel to express their collective outrage over reports that SJV students allegedly chanted "Where's Albert?" in the stands.
Martin, 17, a Red Bank Regional High School senior, died at Riverview Medical Center Dec. 3 after collapsing during a basketball scrimmage against Point Pleasant Beach High School.
"There was no chant," RBR Principal Risa Clay said in a letter sent to parents Thursday afternoon. Instead, there were "comments made by one or more students in a small group at one end of the gym."
"The fact that it was only a few students does not make this incident any less repulsive or any less painful for our RBR community. In no way do we excuse the actions of these students," said Clay.
Students tweeted their reactions after the game, which SJV won 47-33, one writing that she was "seriously disgusted by the lack of respect" and another who was "infuriated."
"We are family and no one disrespects our family," another RBR student tweeted about the incident.
According to Principal Clay, she and the school's athletic director met with Holmdel police and "a number of RBR student representatives" to investigate the matter Thursday.
The SJV principal and athletic director apologized to the RBR community and Martin's family and is taking the matter "very seriously," said Clay. "They are committed to finding the people who made these comments and addressing them accordingly."
"Over the course of the past several months we have shown the true resilience of the RBR community, a resilience that we must not allow to be weakened by the ignorance and insensitivity of a few, said Clay.
"Join me in rising above this negativity and staying strong while honoring the memory of Albert Martin."
7:07 pm on Thursday, December 20, 2012
This is so unsurprising. I am not one to write on a forum like this, but my kids graduated high school in '07 and '08 and played soccer, basketball, baseball. SJV kids exhibited the worst sportsmanship I had ever seen. I once sought out the AD there to complain about it. Absolutely awfl

What Would Albert Do? (WWAD?) Biggie Smile - I got this... He would take the high road and just give them a big smile from his big heart. Let's do the same in honoring his integrity and character.
7:22 pm on Thursday, December 20, 2012
It's disgraceful the behavior of the sjv students. Shame on them. I think they should be punished for this insensitive behavior. Inexcusable. Prayers go out to the sjv students who have no compassion or kindness in their hearts for Albert and his rbr family.
5:05 pm on Friday, December 21, 2012
They are being punished you idiot. There was a moment of silence for Albert today at the christmas liturgy
7:59 pm on Thursday, December 20, 2012
I doubt there will be a punishment for any of those kids. Remember they are perfect little catholic students. But if the tables were turned, RBR athletes wouldn't be able to play another game the rest of the year.
10:46 pm on Thursday, December 20, 2012
I can understand everyones anger over this BUT until they find the students that said this, if at all, dont bash the SJV community. The school does a wonderful job at instilling good character in their students. Why dont you look the website and see the selfless acts these students do. Whats fair is fair and one rumor quickly started at the game and this too can be a rumor.
4:15 pm on Friday, December 21, 2012
GW. It's not a rumor. Things were said whether it was a chant or not, it has been confirmed some students said terrible statements out loud, loud enough for players of both teams to hear. So yes, SJV must do a WONDERFUL job with the students....
5:04 pm on Friday, December 21, 2012
Just to let you know the president of the school promised that those who are responsible will have to deal with unpresidented consequences
Kelly Z.
6:57 am on Friday, December 21, 2012
Unfortunately, this is not a rumor. The Holmdel police, SJV principal and coach are involved because there were credible witnesses to this event. Poor judgement on the part of the SJV students. I commend the RBR players for keeping their composure throughout the game after hearing the comments.
Olivia Dunham
8:19 pm on Sunday, December 23, 2012
The police? Are you KIDDING ME? Seriously. Not that the holmdel police are busy since all they do is sit on laurel avenue an 35 and write tickets but the police? Even if there was a chant. It is not a police matter. Get over it. You people are such babies.
7:16 am on Friday, December 21, 2012
My child graduated RBR in 2007. At a football game at SJV, when someone went to purchase food at the snack bar, the SJV student asked if the RBR had enough money to pay for it...my nephew played football for an opposing school at SJV, and when they left the field, students spit on them...I was there and witnessed it. I agree that this is not the entire SJV community, but poor sportmanship and very un-Christian behavior is part of the culture there.
8:25 am on Friday, December 21, 2012
Someone needs to take these students down a notch from their high horses at sjv. God bless the students at rbr for their composure, excellent character and their spirit!

5:08 pm on Friday, December 21, 2012
Who won? RBR won. They did not respond to the idiots. But I suppose Monmouth resident is more concerned with score.
4:59 pm on Friday, December 21, 2012
It's disgusting to see how many prejudice and buyest people there are in our community alone. It's obvious that you all have something against catholic schools, and those who are "elite" compared to you. I am a highschool athlete and i have seen both good and bad sportsmanship from sjv as well as rbr, and every other highschool for that matter. You cannot condemn the entire sjv student body because of a small group of individual's actions. Whose to say that it came from an sjv student, this was a public event. Most of these public schools should actually be trying to raise thier standards of accountability and discipline to match sjv. Some kids are able to get away with acts that would have them out of sjv in a heartbeat.
6:47 pm on Friday, December 21, 2012
@TFresident Funny that you made fun of someone above by stating that "unsurprising" isn't a word and then you make a comment and spell "biased" completely wrong.( see your comment above ) I know you are young so just keep this in mind, if you are going to mock someone for misspelling something or call them out for a word or grammar, make sure when you make a comment you are spot on with everything you post.
9:00 pm on Friday, December 21, 2012
Ok. It's obvious you're an SJV student. Secondly, it's been confirmed by staff and homdel police that it was SJV students so sorry. And getting online and calling people idiots and biased isn't a way to get your point across. Sorry, but no matter what you say will not stop the fact that whichever students said these words are absolutely heartless and have no manners or sportsmanship. Don't think they would be considered catholic school material.
7:19 pm on Friday, December 21, 2012
@Lisacw I'll keep that in mind, but that still doesnt diminish the truth of everything else i said, ( assuming you are just another one of those BIASED people commenting on this issue which most likley doesnt involve you, not to say it definatley doesnt. A spelling error by a hs school student is a little less embarrassing than a middle aged adult using unsurprisng.
10:23 pm on Friday, December 21, 2012
This is killing me. Unsurprising. Yes, it is a word. Perhaps someone could look it up.
9:31 pm on Friday, December 21, 2012
I dont know if you've been informed of this but the golden children of rbr have been doing nothing but trash talking sjv students online, there has even been threats towards the hockey team and thier game tommorow, recquiring a police escort to the game. I didnt know Albert, but he sounds like a good kid and would be ashamed to see what some of his classmates have to say. If you dont believe me check out #sjvscum on twitter. Maybe that will shed some light on this whole situation for you.
5:06 pm on Saturday, December 22, 2012
I think you'd trash talk a school when the students of that school thought it would be a good idea to make fun of an athlete who passed away, in front of his fellow teammates and classmates. Good job tfresident you're really helping your case.

Ditto Diane. Social media has spread the rumors and all the comments so fast. STOP! Let there be PEACE on earth and Let it begin .... Here and now. My prayers go out to ALL, RBR and SJV.
12:52 pm on Saturday, December 22, 2012
Judy u have made the most sense of all ..... After 9/11and now new town conn ... It's time to move on .... God bless Albert .... And god bless the students if something was said ..... We need to keep Christ in out hearts all the time not just at Christmas

Can someone get tfresident a spell checker, please?
12:44 am on Sunday, December 23, 2012
@rbresident, I guess you think it's alright to make death threats. Why don't you just accept the fact that it was one, maybe two or three shiv students acting unacceptably, but dozens possibly hundreds of rbr students cursing at and making threats towards those who were not involved in the incident. I think it's time you started to grow up.
12:49 am on Sunday, December 23, 2012
@ Fred rbpatch, this issue goes beyond spellchecking. Please, if you have something that unimportant to say just don't say it.
Enuf Already
2:00 pm on Sunday, December 23, 2012
@Nyr- You're kidding right? Have you read this thread in it's entirety? My post is the only one that made any sense here. You have 2 groups of people, many of which weren't even present at the incident (I was, were you?), making accusations, threats, etc. over a few extremely insensitive and careless remarks, and you think that YOUR advice to "...grow up" was all that worldly and insightful? Please... you think way too highly of yourself.
Enuf Already
2:45 pm on Sunday, December 23, 2012
@Nyr- One more thing "Oh Most Knowledgeable One"... This isn't about "growing up", it's about "HOW Our Children Are BROUGHT Up."... it's about proper parenting, providing a sense of family and love, and teaching respect for both the living AND the dead. If they're taught to be disrespectful, they'll still "grow up" (as you suggest), but they'll grow up being disrespectful. So the next time you feel you want to add your "important wealth of wisdom", try offering something more than a mere cliché.

These days, it seems kids and adults can find a million reasons to stay in the house. After all, most folks have around 300 TV channels. There are computers in just about every home and even soon-to-be retired Pope Benedict has an iPad.
Its sad to think how many children are growing up without experiencing what its like to land a fish, hunt a rabbit or call in a turkey unless theyre doing it in a virtual world .
Its our responsibility to getthe next generation out of the cozy confines of their den and out into the natural world.
When I grew up, our world was filled with a life of adventure only we could create. Those BB guns felt like safari rifles and only the bravest of squirrels dared to stand out on a limb.
It didnt matter the usual catch consisted of nothing more than a few bream . With each little fish landed, I was as thrilled as the day I caught my first blue marlin, and that didnt happen until I was into my 20s.
The first largemouth bass I caught couldnt have been more than 2 pounds, but he was far more than my 7 year old strength could bear. I finally gave up trying to reel him in and decided on a new tactic.
Turning around and placing the rod over my shoulder, I began to walk back toward the house in an all out tug-of-war. Miraculously, I won. Ill never forget the look on my fathers face when I knocked on the back window and motioned for him to come see my prized catch.
Shouldnt every kid have memories such as those?
If you agree, and are willing to accept the aforementioned responsibility, S.C. Department of Natural Resources is offering a perfect opportunity.
The SCDNRs Aquatic Education Section is looking for experienced anglers to volunteer to help with a new family fishing instruction program. These Family Fishing Clinics are designed to help introduce the basics of fishing.
Participants will learn how to tie the necessary fishing knots, how to rig a rod, where to find fish, proper casting techniques and how to actually catch fish.
To become a certified DNR fishing instructors, visit dnr.sc.gov/aquaticed/instructor/ and register.
Volunteers are required to attend a training session and undergo a background check. Then host at least two clinics annually with a minimum total of 15 students and no more than 25. To learn the sport or have a child who would like to try fishing, call 803-737-8483.
Only by accepting our roles as mentors can we guarantee our fishing and hunting heritage will continue.

Fort Gibson
The Ghost of Vivia Thomas
This fort is supposedly haunted by the spirit of Vivia Thomas. Thomas was a veangeful woman who stalked a former fiance who broke off their engagement shortly before their wedding. She posed as a man to enlist in the army and be stationed at the same fort as her former lover. One night she murdered him out of jealousy. The death was blamed on an Indian attack. Feeling remorse, Vivia lay upon his grave all night until she froze to death. Her guilt has apparently caused her to linger at the Fort even in death.

6. | Cal Poly | ||
One of the BEST school's in California. Where a 4.5 GPA student with perfect 800 SAT's in Math and Spanish, and a 2110 in the SAT reasoning, straight AP, minority, number 2 of 582 student goes after rejection from UC Berkeley.
The BEST architecture school in the state. Go Mustangs! Hey, I heard you got rejected from Berkeley.
Yeah, but I don't care! Cal Poly is soooooooooo much better! :D |
1. | cal poly | ||
Better than UC Berkeley in Engineering and Science, better than any other school in the nation in Architecture. Cal Poly is the most underrated school in the west, and that is a good thing.
2. | cal poly | ||
A CSU located in San Luis Obispo, far from the egotistical hippy cock-sucking enviornmentalist tree-hugging undegraduates at Cal that have ripped their parents on tuition, gained no practical education, and never talked face to face with a professor or industry. Hi. I'm from Cal. I like to talk down to other universities using online dictionaries. I picked Cal Poly because they have excellent undergraduate programs in engineering, architecture, and agriculture. I am jealous of their practical approach to education and their small class sizes. I die a little each day I attend another 500 student lecture. I may be book smart, but I can't tell my mouth from my asshole.
3. | Cal Poly | ||
"Cal Poly" may refer to one of two universities: *California Polytechnic State University (Cal Poly San Luis Obispo or Cal Poly SLO) *California State Polytechnic University, Pomona (Cal Poly Pomona) Graduate1: I got my degree in Architecture from Cal Poly.
Graduate2: Which one? Graduate1: Pomona Graduate2: Cool, I went to SLO for engineering! |
4. | Cal poly | ||
Best Engineering School on the West coast and maybe the U.S. Has the second best architecture program in the nation next to Harvard. Where all the smart people that realize that cal is a bunch of bullshit go, because we actually want to do something with our majors other than smoke weed and complain about Bush. Best place to go for most other concentration too over Cal, since cal wont let you in some majors until you are a Junior.( Have fun with GEs for 2 years).
Great Parties, and is located in San Luis Obispo which is 10 minutes from Pismo and Avila beach where the babes run wild. Cal Poly's moto is learn by doing which is one of the greatest since half your classes will not be 500 people lectures, and yes, you do get involved with acutal things relating to your major! OMG! There is a strong emphasis on being envolved in groups and other clubs. Cal Poly recently hosted the Polybot competition where freshmen and sophmores were shown how to build and program a simple racing robot that would follow a line around a black track.(Where else can a freshman do something that fun and cool) You go to Cal Poly? Heard it's awesome there. Cal won't let me do computer engineering for atleast another year. fucken ass wipes.

stands for California Polytechnic, officially designating the campus in San Luis Obispo (SLO), CA Dollar for dollar one of the best deals for an education, over 90% of graduates have jobs or grad school within in year and it costs less than half that of a Berkeley undergrad degree. UC Berkeley Student : OMG I GOT INTO BERKELEY I CAN SPEND ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE MORE MONEY FOR AN UNDERGRADUATE DEGREE. Well, at least they have wonderful research departments in underwater basket weaving...it's worth it for sure!!
Cal Poly Student : Hmmm, I wonder what the Urban Dictionary page for cal poly says....why are there so many berkeley students ranting on here, man they must be compensating for something because I dont give a shit what the UC berkeley urban dictionary page says. UC Berkeley student again : BUT BERKELEY IS RANKED 21 ON WORLD NEWS REPORT AND CAL POLY ISNT EVEN RANKED... Cal Poly Student : you're stupidity is a testament to how poor of a filter uc berkeley's admissions are....cal poly is a FOUR YEAR UNIVERSITY AND IS THEREFORE NOT CATAGORIZED UNDER NATIONAL UNIVERSITIES PAGE. What a poor level of observation on your part as to how the U.S. News ranks colleges....and yet you're so willing to talk |
7. | Cal Poly | ||
"The Harvard of the West". An extremely underrated University located in one of the best cities in California. A university that accepts about 30% of applicants yet doesn't have it's head up its ass. Ranked the #1 Public University of the West. #3 highest average alumni salary, we can basically assume that it should be considered in the top 5 public universities in the nation.. The only college in CA that denies students that get into UC Berkeley. Easily better than UCD, UCI, UCSB, UCSC, UCR, and UCSD, Cal Poly is the place to be. Im soo depressed, I got denied from Cal Poly SLO. I guess im headed to UC Berkeley then(Tear).
I wish I would have chosen Cal Poly over UC Berkeley, that way I could have had a more rational education involving hands on training. Oh well, I guess im just going to have to deal with learning through my TA rather than my professor. |

Round 2 in the battle of the "jeans".
By nmyownpriv8idaho
from Carson, CA
Previously, I returned these jeans because the size 16 was 3 inches wider in the waist than needed. I had also ordered the Virtual Stretch in a 14/16 that was a perfect fit. I then ordered a size 14 Basic Slim Leg, but was sent a size 14 Hollywood Slim Leg instead. I rechecked my order thinking that I had mistakenly reordered the wrong style, but even the invoice listed what I had ordered but did not receive. Unfortunately and oddly enough, even though the size 16 waist in this style was 3 inches too big, the size 14 waist I couldn't even zip up! Now I have to return this pair that was sent in error.There are only 2 Avenue stores in my area, both nearly 10 miles away in opposite directions. I guess I need to try on any future purchases.
Disappointed, yet again.
In the last 4 or 5 years, any fit description as "skinny" on capris and jeans rarely are skinny. This pair is tagged "fitted from hip to hem", which is the total opposite of how they fit me. These had a really nice black rinse, bordering on dressy, but the fit wasn't there. I have a huge gut because of a medical condition and even the waist was very loose for a size 16. I'm sending them back, but I'm not sure if for an exchange or refund.

Lumia 610 now shipping with 7.8 while the Lumia 510 gets a firmware refresh
Nokia is sure paying attention to their entry level Windows Phones as both the Lumia 510, which just came out, and the slightly older Lumia 610 are both getting some Windows Phone 7.8 treatment and updates.
Microsoft noted that devices would start shipping with 7.8 in late December while those with current devices will have to wait a smidge later to get the update delivered via Zune desktop.
First up is the Lumia 510, which actually launched with Windows Phone 7.8 build 8858 but is now getting a routine firmware update. Originally launching with 12460 for firmware, the device is reportedly being bumped to 12490 according to Ubergizmo (who confuse firmware with the OS). Indeed, we confirmed that such an update does exist on Navifirm, noting that it's the same 7.8 build (8858).
No word on what changes there are with this new firmware but it's most likely some tweaks and fixes to help improve the user experience. Either way, it's great to see Nokia giving that device some attention with its rolling launch. The Lumia 510 features a 4" 480x800 display with a 1GHz CPU, 256MB of RAM and just 4GB of storage.
The Lumia 610, on the other hand, has been out since mid-2012 and was Nokia's other entry level device. It's been running Windows Phone Tango since that time but like all of Nokia's phones it's slated for a 7.8 update. That device is now being sold through various retailers, including Carphone Warehouse UK with the update pre-installed.
Reader Joe sent us his extended video tour of the 7.8 OS on the 610 with a mixed opinion. Clearly the 256MB of RAM is limiting some of the performance on the device, including Nokia Drive which evidently crashes often resulting in the designation of "rubbish" from Joe. Indeed we have heard some mixed things regarding the lack of speediness of 7.8, which we can only imagine is augmented by having low amounts of RAM and 800MHz CPU found on the 610.
No word on the exact timeframe for Windows Phone 7.8 to rollout but we're expecting some news within the coming weeks, especially with CES and Mobile World Congress just around the corner.
Source: Ubergizmo, YouTube; Thanks, Joe and wpnav, for the tips

Can someone please tell me if 7.8 includes screenshot support?
cannon#WP says:
No it does not.
jordanfernandes says:
Lol.. Why can't Microsoft add screenshot capabilities while XDA Devs can?
blessthejon says:
Damn. I would much rather have screenshot support than a new startscreen. Oh well. :/
iamSherlocked says:
I hv l610 with 7.8 updated. It do not hv lenses. Does the one with 7.8 out of the box had it?
kunwar_91 says:
no 7.8 build for any lumia has the lenses , nokia will probably release cinemagraph and other lenses as standalone apps :)
ZuNuKoo says:
By the time I'm able to upgrade to a wp8 phone. (April) I should be able to get this. Wonder if it's worth it to upgrade. When is 7.8 coming to phones already out? If lower end models already have it on theirs.
pankaj981 says:
Q1 2013 as stated by MS
SymoClod says:
Thanks to Joe for the video...very informative.
Marty Larsson says:
7.8 come out already for all users or at least give a date to legacy phone users Jesus they have dragged this right out!! Meh!!
walter1832 says:
Any day now, people. Just sit by the pc and have Zune open and ready to go. Have your USB ready. Go to the bathroom now, because I don't want to hear about it later. I'm not stopping.
walter1832 says:
I just reminded myself of some comedy sketch/movie...I forget from where. Where one person tells the other, "Dial 9 and 1 and when I say go, dial 1 again."
Jeebus137 says:
It's from the Simpsons. It's the episode where Bart sells his soul for $5. He races over to Milhouse's grandma's house (where Milhouse is staying since his house is being fumigated) in the middle of the night and knocks on the door. She has them dial 9 and then 1 before she opens the door.
chataddicted says:
What 7.8 without bing start screen wallpaper feature!!!!! Omg...
krishna6233 says:
wrong ..510 is havin 800mhz processor
sunnybyday says:
Indeed we have heard some mixed things regarding the lack of speediness of 7.8 .. That is not good news for guys like me waiting for the 710 to be updated to WP7.8. Is it really sluggish and slows down the device?
Trappiste says:
Some Lumia 800's are now shipping with 7.8 out of the box in Finland.
Rockartisten says:
The 7.8 update I have still doesn't support Microsoft Account (outlook). Judging from the pictures, this does though.
Rockartisten says:
Scratch that, it seems like it still doesn't. Lazy bastards!
WinFan1 says:
data sense lol thats what hes trying to figure out. Speaking of data sense when are we getting it for the 920
drjekel_mrhyde says:
That stock photo always make me laugh
camptime says:
Not happy with having to wait for these up dates for so long. We have 2 L 710, 1 L 800,and a L 900 that i wanted to update for Christmas wile i was home, now these family menbers will have to wait till July for the update.(All of these family members are over 60 and do not own a PC).
JacksonSQD says:
And here I am stuck with WP 7.5 on my HTC 7 Trophy.. :(
jordanfernandes says:
HTC has not said anything about windows phone 7.8. I hope they got something cool to give us..
androidnav says:
I have the HTC titan UK, I myself hope HTC say something regarding thus matter. At least they should do what Nokia are doing. Just keep us updated. Saying that this is similar to those waiting for a Jelly Bean update on Android handsets. But they don't have to wait over 6 month after announcement!

Tyron74 says:
i don.t know about the rest of Europe, but in the UK you can update your Lumias FOR FREE at any Nokia Care Point what i did yesterday (v.7.10.8858 now, they have it for 2 weeks already, it took 1 hour to flesh it.). But don't expect to have everything Nokia promised for update via Zune- there is still no BT file transfer, Ringtones Maker, Cinemagraph etc.
My L 800 has got 3 sizes of tiles, additional themes colours and Bing screensaver -that s it...
Just check on nokia website your nearest Nokia Care Point in Greece, mate!
rahul sivanathan says:
the 7.8 update is available in nokia care india. i got it two weeks back..

We have our Ava again, and it is wonderful. We got to Almaty at around 4:20 AM (flight from Frankfurt was delayed 4 hours), met Lola, got to our apartment around 5:30 AM, showered, and then tried to rest a bit. At about 8:20, we met the car downstairs, and sitting in the back seat was our Ava nicely bundled in her snowsuit. Amber quickly grabbed her, and it was just a wonderful moment that we've waited so long for. We gave her hugs and kisses and she was all smiles. It did seem like she remembered us – almost that she was surprised to see us!
We then went to the doctor's office. They took her weight and height, a blood test for HIV, and then a general exam. The only problem is that she has a little head cold right now, so we're going to try to help her feel as good as we can before the flight home. The pediatrician who brought her down on the train said she was perfect the whole way, staying quiet and very content for the 10 hour train ride. Hopefully she likes flying too. She's been a lot more talkative so far than she was on our first trip, but other than that and being a little longer; she's very much the same little girl we left – sweet, smart, and easy going. She still has only the one tooth, though it's much more pronounced.
The apartment is pretty nice, though not exactly baby friendly. We have no crib, and there are a lot of low things for her to go for. The toilet is in its own room as is the shower with the only sink being in the kitchen, which is inconvenient to say the least. The décor again is a bit odd, just haphazard like Karaganda. The grocery store is a block and a half away, but it's a long block, past their "White House" and uphill. Almaty has some really good architecture, and the drivers set a new standard for barely controlled lunacy.
Tomorrow at 3 we go to the US Embassy to finalize her US papers and get the US visa for her Kazakh passport. From what we've been told it's a straightforward process, but it is all needed to get her to leave the country. She's our child officially to Kazakhstan, now the US has to agree. According to our plan, after that Friday & Saturday will be leisurely days getting to know our baby and her getting to know us, then a long trip home with our Ava.
Internet access so far has been a little problematic, so I'm not sure how many updates we will have this trip, but here are a few new pictures:

Romney's Claims Contradicted by His Own Peers: Street Whispers
Story updated to reflect Bain Capital's investing history.
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Mitt Romney says businesses and investors are turned off to President Barack Obama's high taxes, costly regulations and the government's expansion of power over the private sector.
Romney's peers in the private equity world would disagree.
A total of $74 billion, or about 70% of global private equity investments, have targeted U.S. companies this year, much higher than in other years, according to Bloomberg data on completed and announced deals. That's up from 53% in 2011 and 61% in 2007, the year before Obama was elected and a banner year for the industry.
The top five buyouts in 2012 have targeted U.S. companies, highlighted by Apollo Global Management's(APO) $7.15 billion acquisition of El Paso's energy exploration unit. Only three of the top 10 involve companies outside of the U.S., the data show.
Newly opened private equity investment funds are increasingly concentrated in the U.S., according to PitchBook data. Funds based in the U.S. have grown to over 70% of the private equity industry, up from 60% in 2007.
Those facts rebut Romney's argument that private capital is fleeing U.S. shores. You would think that Romney, as the former CEO of Bain Capital, would know. The private equity firm's buyout history shows that 77% of its investments are concentrated in the U.S., according to Bloomberg data. Since 2009, Bain has diversified itself and pushed into foreign markets, highlighted by its acquisitions of Japanese restaurant chain Skylark and Swedish security provider Securitas in 2011.
"When the price of doing business in America rises, it does not come as a surprise that entrepreneurs and enterprises cut back, let employees go, and delay hiring," Romney says in his 'Plan for Jobs and Economic Growth.' "
On the other hand, European deals have withered because of the debt crisis and Asia has taken on greater significance.
Still, amid a worsening crisis in Europe and fears that once red-hot markets like China and Brazil will cool or even crash, private equity industry leaders have said the U.S. remains the most attractive region for investment.

Roberta Markbreit: Teacher, Author, TV host
Skokie resident Roberta Markbreit has written an autobiography about her childhood on the North Side of Chicago during the World War II years. | Photo cortesy of the author
Updated: February 11, 2013 6:08AM
Longtime Skokie resident Roberta Markbreit never forgot from where she came.
In fact, she cherished her upbringing in her North Side Chicago neighborhood so much that she decided to write her autobiography: "On the Street Where I Lived: Autobiography of a Child."
"I keep coming back," Markbreit writes to open her book. "It would be late afternoon, and there was I, sprawled on the shadowed sidewalk, playing jacks, the chill along the inside of my arms and legs, under me, inside my skin, the chatter of my friends swirling about me. The sun was settled beyond the street where I lived, warm against my back."
Markbreit writes lovingly of her childhood world during World War II years, a more innocent time, and she captures the relationships she had with her father and mother with warmth and great feeling.
Married to former NFL referee Jerry Markbreit, the author was a newspaper writer and substitute taught and was a full-time English teacher at Niles Township High School District 219 for eight years. She also has produced and hosted the Contempo cable TV show and another show for more than 20 years in Skokie.
"On the Street Where I Lived: Autobiography of a Child," self-published by Inkwater Press, is available at local books stores such as The Book Bin in Northbrook, The Book Cellar in Chicago and Women and Children First in Chicago as well as Amazon.Com and other on-line sites. The book is also available at www.robertamarkbreit.com.
Q. What made you decide to write a book?
A. I didn't consciously decide to do it. I sat down and it all came pouring out. I just felt a need to write about my childhood because I had all these memories that I carried with me all of my life.
Q. How long did it take to write the book
A. It was 10 years on and off. I was dedicated to making a schedule – like two hours a day 2 p.m. to 4 p.m, but it wasn't so easy to stick to that because a lot of things happen in life. I wrote whenever I could.
Q. Did you share your writing with anyone as you wrote over the years?
A. There were some vignettes that I shared with my husband who encouraged me, but not the whole book. I think the reason it was so important to me to do this was because my childhood was a time I remembered so vividly. There was an innocence about the time I grew up in that I wanted to share and that I could never forget. I really wanted the book to be about how important childhood is. The way a child sees the world."
Q. Can you describe the "Contempo" local access TV show?
A. It's an interview show I've hosted and produced for many years. We talk to all kinds of interesting and different people — everyone from public relations people to doctors and lawyers and many others. There never seems to be a shortage of interesting people to talk to.
Q. Are there any shows that stand out over the years?
A: There was a girl who had disabilities all of her life and she said she was called stupid by people, but she was smart and made something of herself. She owns a McDonald's now. There's been others – so many interesting people over the years."
Q. What do you like to do when you're not writing or putting on a TV show?
A. For 10 years or so, I painted in oils and I really loved it. We've travelled, too, and we have enjoyed that so much.
Q. What has kept you in Skokie for so long?
A. We really love Skokie. It's become such a melting pot here. Our own block is like a little United Nations here.

(FILES) - A file combo released on July 8, 2011 shows former Finance, Economy and Industry Minister Christine Lagarde (L) on June 20, 2011 and the current owner of the Nice Matin press group Bernard Tapie (R) on February 15, 2008. IMF chief Lagarde will be heard by judges at the Court of Justice of the Republic (CJR) on May 23, 2013 in Paris. The CJR court ruled on August 14, 2011 that IMF managing director Christine Lagarde was to be formally investigated for approving a compensation payout to businessman Bernard Tapie when she was France's Finance minister. The Court of Justice of the Republic backed the prosecutor's request which argued that Lagarde abused her authority by approving a 285 million euro (405 million USD) payment to Tapie, a supporter of French president Nicolas Sarkozy.
