What is Face2Face?
Phone: 800-789-4693 Option 4
E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
Website: http://www.thetask.org/f2f
This new program for students launches in the summer of 2013. During your 8-10 weeks in East or South Asia you will be challenged to get Face 2 Face with God, Face 2 Face with yourself, and Face 2 Face with the nations. You will be mentored by experienced Christian workers, you will examine your relationship with God, and you will reach the nations with the Gospel.
How does Face2Face work?
Face2Face is a unique opportunity to serve with a team. You will spend the first 3-5 days in orientation and training overseas. This training will prepare you for life and ministry in a different culture, and will give you time to bond with your teammates and prepare to minister as a team. At the end of the summer, you and your team will spend 1-2 days debriefing your experience and preparing to return home to the US.

See all my reviews
I bought this as a replacement for an old one that no longer fit. Have not had opportunity to use it as yet; but fit of the Large on my 5'5" 150 lb frame seems very good! Fit comfort and ease of on an off are also good. Summer finally arrived in Oregon and this will be for future snorkeling as my water stays tend to be long.

Agreed. Once again gay men come across as pets for straight women.
the prize should be a dinner for three. and they possibly have a threesome after that. LOL
Winner pic is cute but nothing romantic at all. And who knows those guys are gay or not? lol, they just tried to kiss the girl, maybe they were ashamed to kiss each others instead.
I'm tired of this kind of photo, like i saw that before in some videos and photos: a gay couple was dancing with each other then they had to put a straight woman in between and made it look like a threesome.
2 guys kissing a girl wins a gay kiss contest? Doesn't make sense.

I have 27 years of teaching experience and although I have taught several different subjects, the bulk of my experience is teaching physical science to 8th graders and physics to 9th graders.
I prefer hands-on activities; inquiry based whenever possible. I am a "true believer" in the integration of technology into all classroom activities; I use online simulations when in-class labs are not possible. I also believe that humans learn more when they are relaxed and are able to laugh every once in awhile. My classes tend to be noisy, but busy. :)
Most of my "honors and awards" have been in the athletic coaching arena, so they aren't applicable here.

NDAA, DLA, DNA... Still Clear as MudIndustry and government continue to hammer away at anti-counterfeiting measures. Dan Deisz of Rochester Electronics recently presented at the Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages (DMSMS) & Standardization Conference, which focuses on government-related matters. Deisz shared the following observations. NDAAHenry Livingston of BAE reported on the impact of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), notably Section 818. It was clear from his presentation that there will be modifications to the NDAA and Section 818, as there are too many ambiguities and wording clarifications that need to be revisited. As the presentations went on, there was continued discussion regarding counterfeit products, relating to materials other than just electronic components. On day two, an executive panel on anti-counterfeiting kicked off the afternoon session. The basis of this panel was to outline the specific modifications that should be made to the NDAA and Section 818. Between this panel discussion and the earlier presentation by BAEs Livingston, the issues within the NDAA became clearer to the audience, and more questions were asked as a result. On the table is a recommendation that the term "suspect counterfeit" or "counterfeit" be changed to "non-conformance." One reason is to appease legal minds, and another is to broaden the range of products covered across more than just the Department of Defense. The language in Section 818 that talks about "trusted sources" is going to be adjusted to "trustworthy sources" in an effort to avoid comparison to the Trusted Access Program Office (TAPO). There are a number of terms left open to interpretation in Section 818 when it comes to system integrators and long-term maintenance contracts. Questions that were brought up include: Is Section 818 retroactive, or does it apply only to new contracts? If an end-product consists of government IP integrated into OEM IP, who is responsible for the government IP's conformance with Section 818? What about DOE, NASA, and all the other government agencies? Why arent they called out in Section 818? These types of questions and more have yet to be sorted out in this ambiguous legislation. DNAThe Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) discussed DNA marking as an anti-counterfeiting measure. DLA admitted that its own inventory of parts is now suspect and is searching its entire inventory for counterfeit products, especially 59xx products, which include active and passive components. Even though the SIA has submitted letters in response to the DNA marking mandate, DLA is moving forward with DNA marking. There are inherent issues with this process that will not fully address the interdiction of counterfeit devices. There are now two sourcing distributors that have purchased applied DNA product and will be able to ship product into DLA. DLA clarified its position regarding DNA: If it gets two bids on a product where one is from a sourcing distributor that uses DNA marking and has traceability, and one from an OCM authorized distributor with no DNA marking, the DLA will opt to purchase the components from the sourcing distributor. How do you feel about these points? Is NDAA any clearer? Does DNA marking solve the counterfeiting problem? |

Enlarge / Alternate Images
Just purchased these sheets and washed a few times. So far they are still like new. I will purchase additional sets for sure.
These sheets are soft and better than the flannel have been the last few years. Has anyone noticed that the fitted sheet is washing up differently than the top sheet? I just got these bought 6 full sets and the fitted sheet is not soft anymore and is a dingy color. I have only used them 2 weeks.
These have become my favorite sheets from here. I am in total agreement with a few others. The complaint I have is that I would love for them to be a bit bigger too. I don't use these sheets to drape clients for any extreme leg stretches. Just not enough coverage to make that maneuver safe! So that makes it a bit of a downside. My only other complaint is that sometimes they have a springy quality to them so draping can be a little more challenging than with a normal cotton sheet because they can sort of spring back once tucked. Other than that, they are very soft. My clients always comment about that, saying they prefer my sheets to other places they've been. And they are a little thicker or weighted down feeling which is nice. Definitely worth it, especially when they are on sale. Don't pass that up!
We ordered both the flat and fitted because we have become very disappointed in the quality of the flannel sheets lately. These were wonderful and will probably become permanent fixtures in our spa.
We were so thrilled with these sheets. We had initially ordered some flannel, that quite frankly weren't up to snuff. These sheets are so soft, lint free, exactly what we wanted. We love them so much, we are swearing off flannel.
I recently ordered these sheets because the quality of the NRG flannel sheets has gotten poorer and poorer every year. I really like these sheets a lot. The only constructive criticism I have to offer is that I wish the top sheet was about 6-8" longer in the length.....Otherwise perfect!
These sheets feel great and don't wrinkle easily, but questionable width and length. I wish they were made a bit larger.

When the Scotland County school board meets next week, it is expected to review the applications of those wishing to fill the unexpired term of the late James Underwood.
To date, there are four applicants — James Keith Oxendine, Stacy D. Stewart, Jamie Sutherland and Loretta R. McNeil.
If you plan to join that short list, the deadline to apply for the vacant school board seat is Monday.
The only other hard and fast rule of eligibility is that applicants must live outside the Stewartsville Township.
Several board members said they are looking for someone who shares James Underwood's values and strong commitment to education.
School board member Darrel Gibson has laid out a pretty good sketch of what the successful candidate should look like.
Gibson said the applicant should be "committed to providing excellence in education for all children, someone who is open to working with superintendent and present board to move the community forward."
We have added a few qualities of our own that we think are vital to all successful school board members:
— A good communicator. The county school board needs someone who can communicate his or her goals and the goals of constituents. Part of communicating, also means being a good listener.
— A consensus builder. The board member should want to work toward decisions that everyone can support and also be willing to compromise to achieve that goal.
— A team player. The successful applicant should be supportive of fellow board members and staff as well as work to promote the board's vision and goals.
— An educator. The next school board member should be someone who can process a lot of information, but also be able to effectively share that information with the community.
To inquire about eligibility, applicants should call the Scotland County Board of Elections at 277-2595.
Anyone wishing to fill the unexpired term should submit a résumé and cover letter to Nancy Smith, administrative assistant to the board at the A.B. Gibson Education Center. She can be reached at 322 South Main Street, Laurinburg, NC 28352.
The board is expected to begin interviews in January.

AHL to NHL: The Transition | Tweet |
Written by Stuart McDonald | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Friday, 04 September 2009 23:15 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Over the last half decade most teams have developed a three season program for transitioning their AHL scoring stars to NHL top-six forwards. It's a fairly simple formula but it's amazingly consistent. Nashville's Cal O'Reilly bucked this trend slightly, but his contract status shows that he's definitely in Nashville's plans. O'Reilly finished among the top-20 AHL scorers two years in a row - normally the kiss of death for a minor league forward. But O'Reilly recently signed a two-year deal that seals his NHL fate. The first year is a two-way deal in 2009-10 (his transition year), and a one-way deal (his top-six chance) in 2010-2011. Write comment

The Hong Kong Competition Ordinance was recently adopted by the Legislative Council. You can download our briefing here (English / Chinese).
The Ordinance introduces a cross-sector competition law regime in Hong Kong. The main features of the Ordinance are as follows:
The Ordinance will enter into force at a date to be decided by the Government. The Ordinance will be implemented in phases, with the institutional provisions coming into force first to allow the authorities to be set up and to commence work on enforcement guidelines, which will be subject to public consultation. The substantive provisions will only come into force at a later date, probably not before late in 2013 or 2014, by which time guidelines should have been finalised.
For a more detailed review of the Ordinance, please download our briefing (English / Chinese).

After much discussion at the May meeting of the Upson County Planning Commission, the board decided to allow a variance hearing for Billy Thompson, who is wishing to place a 40x40 dry stackhouse to store litter for his chicken farm located on Morgan Road. Normally, this would not be a problem, but when Mr. Thompson went to apply for his building permit, he was informed that the property did not meet the code requiring a 200- foot setback from each property line for the placement of the stackhouse.
Thompson told the board he bought the property in May of 2012 from the bank after it had been foreclosed on and according to the deed, all easements and codes are in alignment with current protocol. He stated that it is his understanding if the land is not in compliance, then the buyers is supposed to be informed of that. Planning and Zoning Director Doug Currier noted that the plot of land, which was originally owned by Wayne Watson, was illegally split, which caused the property to not allow for enough space for the setback which was established in 2004. Currier also noted the split of the land was done three years after the ordinance was put in place, meaning it was not grandfathered in.
Thompson noted that if he is not able to get a variance, he will be forced to stack the litter in front of the chicken houses until he is able to sell it or spread it on his property, which could be anywhere from six weeks to three months. He also noted that without the variance, he would not even be able to rebuild his chicken houses if they were destroyed by a tornado because they would not meet the code requirement of 200 feet from each property line.
"I am just trying to do what's right and make a living," said Thompson. "I am only asking the same thing of you and to put yourself in my position."
Thompson also thanked Currier for all of his help in this situation and stated that he understood he was only following the law, but appreciated his willingness to help. Mr. Currier also noted that he appreciated the professionalism that Mr. Thompson has displayed throughout their time of working together.
After discussing the matter, the board decided to overturn Currier's interpretation of the law, noting that while he did interpret the law correctly, since it would affect the livelihood of Mr. Thompson and was through no fault of his own they would allow for a variance hearing. The hearing will be scheduled to come before the board in roughly three weeks.

I would argue that while all these desktops change, the rate of changes is (IMO) a lot higher in Linux.

Why would a switch to Windows/Mac be any different for the last type?
It wouldn't. But two things: (1) there's a perception that proprietary vendors are somehow more "professional" or do more in-depth UI research than FOSS vendors, and (2) once people do switch to a proprietary system, they're locked in and it's extremely hard to get them back into the free software community.

Only... I got a nice new Lenovo T430 with Win7 pro, 64 bit. I was a good boy and I created restore media. Well done! Then I plopped the disk from my old laptop in the second bay and started dual booting.
All was well -- except that Windows 7 couldn't install the majority of its crucial system updates because it couldn't install them over locked files. But every reboot iteration helped a little there, and I got it up to date.
Then, after two weeks of heavy software development under Windows, I booted the laptop one morning to find it felt it had to check the disk. And yes, the night before I had performed a clean shutdown. And it felt it to repair stuff.
So I let it repair stuff. Turns out that the wifi and "internet time" services got damages. Zut... Let's try that restore media. Zut... It doesn't want to restore: indeed, restore silently fails. Wonderful. Still, deadlines are deadlines, so now laptop is tethered to its cable when doing Windows stuff.
The grass is not greener on the OSX side, either, where a regular OS update made my Mac Mini unbootable. Fortunately, that still came with OS dvd's, so I could reinstall, which is impossible with the Win7 partition on the T430.
Software sucks, hardware sucks, prices are doubling, pleasures are dwindling and nothing is as it should be!

Well it's a good think Linux runs tickety-boo when your disk starts returning bad data.
(PS: >All was well -- except that Windows 7 couldn't install the majority of its crucial system updates because it couldn't install them over locked files. But every reboot iteration helped a little there, and I got it up to date.
I imagine many people here don't have direct recent experience of Windows Update; suffice it to say that the above is a major exaggeration. Windows does indeed still have the crazy file locking semantics and has no equivalent to ksplice, so some updates will still require a reboot, but this talk of 'reboot cycles' is a tired old canard. The only Linux distribution I have recent 'desktop' experience of is Ubuntu, and that pops up 'reboot required' reminders somewhat more often than Windows does.)
Posted Nov 13, 2012 13:31 UTC (Tue) by boudewijn (subscriber, #14185) [Link]
No, my hardware didn't fail Windows failed. The disk wasn't actually broken, Windows 7 was broken.
And no, Nye, I did not lie about the windows update problems. I did not exaggerate, let alone majorly.
It was exactly as I described. On starting the laptop after unboxing, the update center informed me that it needed to install a few dozen updates, and I said Ok. Then it informed me that it needed to reboot, and I said Ok. Then it tried to apply the updates, failed, and on showing the desktop told me it had crucial updates to apply I said Ok, and it asked me to reboot, and I said Ok -- rinse and repeat until Windows was satisfied.

OS X (10.7 Lion) is pretty painful for me at the moment because my Macbook Air WiFi goes mad man times a day - usually turning WiFi on and off, or rebooting, or power cycling the WAP, will fix it. I resorted to installing a driver from previous OS X version just to improve the WiFi. Ultimately I think it's that OS X doesn't like working with my Asus WAP (RT-N10), which works fine with a couple of iOS devices, some Windows laptops, etc. There's a 150 page thread on the Apple forums about this WiFi issue with Lion.
Ironically enough, I got this WAP because of an iPad 3 having WiFi problems with a WRT54G running Tomato.
Macs are quite nice in some ways as a reasonably sane Unix environment that also has nice software you can buy if you want, plus a lot of open source software - but in my experience the Apple WiFi support is truly awful. I suspect Apple only tests with their own Airport WAPs.

If you are having unexplained file corruption, it could be a RAM error as well, of course.

Mac OS X was a large change from OS 9 but since then its desktop has remained pretty much the same. It has added a few features and changed a few minor things but I could be just as comfortable using OS 10.3 as 10.7. (10.0, .1 and .2 were a bit too clunky).

The injustice of China's One-Child Policy has gone on long enough. It's time for us to walk in Jesus' freedom and together see the least of the least — China's girls and mothers — restored to life, value and dignity in Christ. It's time to simply love HER, in Jesus' name — the aborted baby girl, the abandoned daughter, the trafficked child, and the abused mother.
Join the work of All Girls Allowed in seeing God transform...
[Last month, a forced abortion took place in the coastal province of Shandong, China. Because the victim's family has since agreed to a compromise with the government, All Girls Allowed will not publicize any real names or addresses in order to protect their identity.]
Shandong, China – In April 2013, a group of Family Planning officials ambushed a man and his pregnant wife (Mr. and Mrs. T) while they were returning home after visiting her relatives. Eight of the officials took Mrs. T's husband to a small, undisclosed hotel while the remaining six officials forced Mrs. T into a van. Since they had been traveling with their three-year-old son, the officials left the boy in the care of a...
All Girls Allowed Speaks with Family Planning Official
In the latest development in the forced abortion case of Ms. Lü, All Girls Allowed spoke last night with Fengyang County's Family Planning Office and received official acknoweldgment and confirmation of the forced abortion on March 22, 2013. In the conversation, which occurred last night at 11:43pm EDT (11:43am Beijing time), the Family Planning Official admitted that the case was being dealt with by the local county government. The full translated text of the interview is below:
Forced Abortion Violates Anhui Provincial Law Forbidding Late-Term Abortions
[GRAPHIC IMAGE: To view unblurred photograph, click here.]
Chuzhou, Anhui, China — The graphic photograph of an aborted 7-month boy is widely circulating China's internet waves following a forced abortion that took place on March 22, 2013, in Chuzhou City, Anhui Province.
Ms. Lü, a 33-year-old Chinese woman whose husband reported the case and released the photograph, was...
The human toll of China's One-Child Policy became clearer this weekend when the government acknowledged that it had carried out 336 million abortions under the policy.
The report came from the newly minted Ministry of Health and Family Planning, which has taken over family planning enforcement from the National Population and Family Planning Commission.
To some, the end of this merger was a sign that the government might be rolling back the policy despite publicly claiming it would continue "unchanged." Population expert Wang Feng...
Image: Feng Jianmei shares with a reporter from Dragon TV about her long recovery from a forced abortion last June.
For the first time since the months following a horrific forced abortion last June, Feng Jianmei sat down with a reporter to share about her journey of recovery.
It's been a tough road.
On June 2nd, 2012, Chinese officials ambushed Feng. They beat her, blindfolded her, and took her to a clinic where they injected her womb with a chemical solution that terminated her late term pregnancy. She delivered a stillborn child soon after, and workers left the baby on her hospital bed in a plastic bag. A...
This year, the world woke up to the horrors of the One-Child Policy.
Why? Because stories of forced abortion jolted people out of apathy. When Chinese officials kidnapped 23-year-old Feng Jianmei and aborted her baby on June 2nd, her sister-in-law photographed the graphic aftermath and posted it online to seek justice.
Chinese citizens viewed these stories online and responded in outrage. Feng Jianmei's name is widely known in China, where millions of people have posted online about her story.
It is our hope that this outrage is just the beginning. We pray it will grow into a wave of justice that sweeps over China to end the...
After China Bans Late-Term Forced Abortion, New Evidence Suggests Tide is Turning on One-Child Policy
"My justice will become a light to the nations."—Isaiah 51:4
Over three decades ago today, China's government declared the beginning of the One-Child Policy, a brutal policy of forced and coerced abortions. Today, based on new evidence from China, we have reason to believe that God is bringing about an end to this horrific policy. God is honoring the faithful prayers and diligent efforts of his people to bring life, value and dignity to mothers in China. We would like to begin by first...
Beijing, China—All Girls Allowed received word that China's central family planning leaders have ordered local affiliates to modify their enforcement of the One-Child Policy.
Yesterday All Girls Allowed reached the family planning office in Chongqing, the city where disgraced hardliner Bo Xilai ruled as Party Secretary until this spring. A committee member confirmed that they had issued an order on August 30th prohibiting forced sterilization and banning the use of late-term abortions to enforce the policy. "Parents must make their own choice," the...
Boston, MA—We have received some great questions about what the document issued to family planning offices might mean for women facing forced and coerced abortions in China. (We usually speak of "forced" abortion as the violent act of dragging a woman to undergo an abortion; a "coerced" abortion involves the use of economic, social or other threats to pressure a woman to agree to undergo an abortion.)
Since speaking with the official in Chongqing about the directive banning forced late-term abortion, we have discovered that the same directive has been announced in many other provinces following the media exposure of ...

More Pony Game News
Well, I did say I wanted a pony MMO.
Saltyjustice has sent in a playable demonstration script for another upcoming pony MMO project. It is significantly smaller than the 3D one I just posted!
You can get the details in the thread here, though you need to register. If you just want to jump in and play, you can grab the game here, or without sound here.
There's a video of it in action after the page break, as well.

There's a lot of talk about MMOs. Are people actually planning on maintaining huge servers for these games to serve hundreds, if not thousands, of players playing at once? It will cost a lot to maintain such servers and to make money from the game to pay for them they will require copyrights from Hasbro.
I don't think any of these projects will go that far and they will probably end as free single player games and perhaps have some multi player functionality, but I doubt they will go MMO. - May 24, 2011 at 3:31 PM
I would call this game Megamane.
Also: Lyra is bad-flank in this game! - May 24, 2011 at 3:33 PM
While everything you have said is a possibility I would like to mention the large number of emulated MMO servers such as Project1999 for Everquest as an example. Despite a large number of players they still manage to survive with little harassment from Sony.
Anyhow, we won't know how things play out till these games are complete so lets give them all the support we can. - May 24, 2011 at 3:38 PM

Project1999 is free to play. How do they maintain the servers that handle hundreds of players? Someone must pay for the bandwidth.
I'm all for a MLP MMO, but a small group of people creating an MMO based on something they do not hold the copyrights for is nothing I've heard of before. - May 24, 2011 at 4:07 PM

This is nice, but is this just to demonstrate sprites and control, or is this how the game is going to play?
I'm happy either way, for whatever that's worth. This looks good, and controls pretty smoothly. It's going to take some time getting used to spacebar being the jump button. - May 24, 2011 at 4:46 PM
Hi, thanks for the comment, im more or less the the guy helping out and overseeing the art side on this game and your worries are extremely valid and things we have considered.
We are making this with an MMO in mind, the core team is not half assing this. We have sent a letter to Hasbro explaining our position in hopes they may reply. So far they have not replied and even if they dont, we will continue to work on this unless they send us a C&D directly.
I am not the guy in charge of the servers but rest assured we all know what we are doing. We arent just a bunch of friends getting together. We are sourced from all around the world and all have experience, or, like in my case, work and study in those fields that help us build the game.
This is a long term project, and playable alphas or maybe betas may take till season two of the show to get of the ground. - May 24, 2011 at 5:15 PM
@ Taylor
This is a demonstration of scripts and programming. It is a proof of concept or some other for the software and coding dept.
Such code will be going into areas like the combat of the MMO (which has been shown here before, look through the EQD archvives), and areas like specifics quests/minigames within the MMO itself. - May 24, 2011 at 5:18 PM
- Kapten-N said...
Thanks for the reply. It's nice to hear from you and see that you guys at least have considered the problems that might come up. Stating that one is going to make an MMO without having thought things through would be a very naive thing to do. :) - May 24, 2011 at 6:27 PM

So many cool MLP games are currently being made. I'm etching to play some beta already. This game is just awesome.
- May 24, 2011 at 7:16 PM
Pretty interesting, I do like how the hitbox for both characters seems pretty tight compared to the actual megaman games I remember playing. So many times I'd get a body collision when it obviously shouldn't have.

Sports Kabob - 9/22
Originally published: Sep 22, 2010 - 4:31 pm
Ladies and gentlemen (and especially ladies), welcome to the Sports Kabob, a skewered look at the world of sports and pop culture.
Here are the top stories:
Reggie Bush will miss "at least" six weeks after suffering a right leg injury in the Saints' Week 2 win over San Francisco
Experts say Bush not playing could cost the Saints 1 or 2 wins, which is ironic because at USC, Bush playing cost USC 13 wins
Bush says that he hopes with aggressive rehab he will no longer have the pain in his leg.
That's the pain in his leg. The pain in his ass he got rid of a few months ago when he broke up with Kim Kardashian
Darrelle Revis was not on the practice field for the New York Jets, and later coach Rex Ryan said he will not play Sunday against the Dolphins.
"What was I to do?" says Revis of his injury. "It's not like the Jets had a mandatory, several week long gathering to work on training and conditioning before the season."
Kurt Warner advanced to the second week of Dancing with the Stars
Meanwhile, Derek Anderson is about to start week 3 of Screwing with the Fans
Michael Vick will take over as the Philadelphia Eagles' No. 1 quarterback, coach Andy Reid said Tuesday, a day after he announced he would go back to Kevin Kolb.
Vick said this was the biggest change of plans he's had to deal with since his dog electrocution machine went on the fritz and he had to drown the animals with his bare hands instead
Dodgers manager Joe Torre said Tuesday he was sorry for saying he was curious about the New York Mets job and current Mets manager Jerry Manuel accepted the apology after taking offense earlier in the day.
In all fairness, the insinuation that Joe Torre would coach Mets is fair more insulting and offensive to Joe Torre
Mets closer Francisco Rodriguez is scheduled to face contempt charges that he violated a judge's order not to contact his girlfriend. Queens District Attorney Richard Brown says Rodriguez is to be arraigned on Wednesday on charges that he violated an order of protection by sending text messages to his girlfriend.
Upon hearing this, Rodriguez released a statement saying "FML"
The Arizona Diamondbacks have set a dubious record: most strikeouts by batters in a season.
The previous record for most times striking out was set by female groupies trying to hook up with the male cast of "Glee"
Jets reporter Ines Sainz has stopped covering the team after allegations that she was sexually harassed.
Experts applaud Sainz on that front, but are already questioning her next job choice : working for Bishop Eddie Long's church
Following the Cowboys 0-2 start, Coach Wade Phillips says that he "can't sleep and can't eat."
He then went on to say, "Well, I can eat."
That's all for this week, leave comments and remember this is Jarrett Carlen leaving early to get drinks with Braylon Edwards, though I'll be taking a cab home

The Nike shorts are great, but I ordered a Women's XS. The order confirmation SAYS I ordered an XS, the packaging and the tags say the shorts are an XS. My daughter ripped the package open, tore the tags off and ran out the door for the evening with them. I thought they looked a little big on her.... and when I went to wash them they are marked MEDIUM inside. SERIOUSLY? Now I'm stuck with these HUGE shorts for my 12-year-old XS-sized girl! UGH! I only ordered them because the store was out of selection in the XS size and the clerk was "nice" (?) enough to suggest we order online in-store. I won't do that again.

Comments about Women's Nike Tempo Track Running Shorts:
I wear these shorts for training runs. The first time I tried them I went on a 6-7 mile run in 70-degree weather. Even though I got pretty sweaty near the end and the shorts were wet, they didn't interfere with my movement and stayed lightweight. I would definitely buy these NIKE shorts in other colors.

I use these shorts for hiking, running, and everyday around the house wear. Plenty of leg room, cool colors, and quick dry fabric make these shorts great. I gave them 4 stars because there is no key pocket.

I've gotten off-brand shorts that are supposed to be like these a couple of times. These are so much better. They are a little bigger than I thought, but still fit so well and are so comfortable. I like the black shorts bc they have the inner/undergarmet lining in black also. They look great and are super stylish as far as gym shorts go. They are also comfortable enough to wear around the house and sleep in the night before a morning work-out.

This was my 7th pair of Nike Tempo Track Shorts, I absolutely love them. The fit is perfect, and you can do just about anything in them- I go to class, run, workout at the gym, play volleyball & soccer, and lounge in them. They keep coming out with great new color combinations, and it's impossible to resist! I can also attest to their durability, as I haven't had a pair wear out on me yet. I highly recommend these shorts!!

Supply Drive For Sandy Victims Saturday in Plymouth Meeting
The Pennsylvania Chapter of the Terry Farrell Fund needs your help.
If you see fire trucks at the Metroplex shopping center in Plymouth Meeting on Saturday, don't worry. It isn't bad news, it's a group of firefighters doing some good.
The Pennsylvania chapter of the Terry Farrell Firefighters Fund has two 26-foot-long box trucks to fill, and they need supplies to do it.
In addition to organizing the supply drive, the fund has obtained a fire truck donation from the Royersford Fire Department. A Pittsburgh fire department is also donating a truck and the chapter has collected fire gear from companies in Pennsylvania, Maryland and Tennessee for Long Island's fire companies.
Members of the public can drop supplies off from 8am-8pm on Saturday at the Metroplex shopping center.
Washington Fire Company Captain Mike Maxwell said the collection point is where WMMR's Preston Elliot and Steve Morrison hold their yearly Camp Out for Hunger.
"We'll have fire trucks there, you won't be able to miss it," Maxwell said.
Maxwell said the group will be collecting non-perishable food, diapers, clothes, and water. Several other donation sites have suggested items such as cleaning supplies, hand sanitizer, and toiletries, and Maxwell said they will accept those items too.
Maxwell said the drive "started small, but has exploded into something huge."
The group has collected all the fire equipment they needed, which includes not only the two fire trucks but hoses, tanks, boots, and protective gear.
"It's been spontaneous and overwhelming," he told Patch. "It's tremendously larger than I imagined.
"I'm anxious to see what Saturday brings. I have two 26-foot trucks and I'm afraid I'll need more before the day is over!"
6:55 pm on Friday, November 9, 2012
Is there an exact address & a phone number contact person to pinpoint the precise collection spot & MOST needed items ?
Alyson D'Alessandro
6:58 pm on Friday, November 9, 2012
Kathy, I was told they are accepting everything. The Metroplex address is 2250 Chemical Road, Plymouth Meeting, PA. I wasn't told where in the parking lot they'd be, but Captain Maxwell said he has several fire trucks coming to set up so they'll be easy to find.
3:52 pm on Saturday, November 10, 2012
PLENTY of Empty Space is left on the trucks for More Donations !
They will be at Metroplex until 8pm.
They can definitely use MORE Donations.
Thanks to Patch for getting the word out !

The Alienware M18x r2 has arrived but has disappointed many. Though RAM options have increased and become cheaper with increased quality of GPUs but Lesser storage capacity is an issue . The Storage Capacity is Max. 1 TB. They claim it is a Monster. So a Monster should have a Storage Capacity of More than 1.5 TB. Moreover, Ivy Bridge has arrived. So , if Ivy bridge processors are introduced in Alienware M18x Laptops then they should become Sleeker at least as sleek as the Alienware M17x r3.
May 7, 2012 Comment Link
I agree with the sleeker design. If ALIENWARE laptops were made a bit thinner and with thinner bezels, they would weigh less and be easier to use on the go. As of today, they are desktop replacers and LAN laptops. They're a bit too bulky and heavy to carry around to classes or meetings.

I recently found a craving for Thai food and like most things, when you are looking for quality service and food, its always good to have a recommended place. My friend told me about Sala Thai and the amazing Green Curry plate they offer. In particular, I enjoy an Extra Spicy flavor and the chef will cook your meal to order with 5 levels of spicy to choose from. The customer service is fantastic and the drink specials are decent for the area. If you are looking for a Thai Restaurant in U street near our DC Hotel, then this is the place to go. It's just a short walk (25 minutes) down U Street at the corner of 14th and U Street NW.

Obama administration has more blood on it's hands: Thousands flee bomb attacks by US drones
AMERICAN drone attacks on the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan are causing a massive humanitarian emergency, Pakistani officials claimed after a new attack yesterday killed 13 people.
The dead and injured included foreign militants, but women and children were also killed when two missiles hit a house in the village of Data Khel, near the Afghan border, according to local officials.
As many as 1m people have fled their homes in the Tribal Areas to escape attacks by the unmanned spy planes as well as bombings by the Pakistani army. In Bajaur agency entire villages have been flattened by Pakistani troops under growing American pressure to act against Al-Qaeda militants, who have made the area their base.
Kacha Garhi is one of 11 tented camps across Pakistan's frontier province once used by Afghan refugees and now inhabited by hundreds of thousands of Pakistanis made homeless in their own land.
So far 546,000 have registered as internally displaced people (IDPs) according to figures provided by Rabia Ali, spokesman for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, and Maqbool Shah Roghani, administrator for IDPs at the Commission for Afghan Refugees.
The commissioner's office says there are thousands more unregistered people who have taken refuge with relatives and friends or who are in rented accommodation.
Jamil Amjad, the commissioner in charge of the refugees, says the government is running short of resources to feed and shelter such large numbers. A fortnight ago two refugees were killed and six injured in clashes with police during protests over shortages of water, food and tents.
Pakistani forces say they have killed 1,500 militants since launching antiTaliban operations in Bajaur in August. Locals who fled claim that only civilians were killed.
Zeb said he saw dozens of his friends and relatives killed. Villagers were forced to leave bodies unburied as they fled.
