We are inventorying our food storage in order to donate items that are close to expiring and put together a plan for eating some of it up over the summer, as we are looking at a possible move to the Gulf Coast of Texas. (Wheee!) I found some Kraft Mac & Cheese that expired back in summer of 2011. Is it still okay to eat? Or does the cheese powder go funky?
I'm thinking of just getting plan macaroni and some #10 cans of cheese powder so that I can make my own, sans the box. Probably it would be healthier that way, too....and the cheese powder lasts a lot longer. It would also take up less space!

I've used some that was completely intact from 2009 with no loss of quality or flavor. No holes in the box or envelope of cheese powder, though.
Where words and actions disagree, the heart is revealed.
Look how often the unexpected happens... and we still don't expect it.

I'd think twice about those big cans of powdered cheese. At least with the mac and cheese boxes those little packages of cheese are UNOPENED and will keep a long long time. Once you open that big can it is going to spoil alot faster than the little packets. JMHO

I have to agree with Mimi! The Kraft Mac and Cheese has lots of preservatives that help to keep it fresh and each pouch is individually sealed.

ABP settles out of court with Deutsche Bank
08 Feb 2013ABP has settled out of court with Deutsche Bank on a lawsuit regarding residential mortgage-backed securities that the Dutch pensions giant purchased in 2006 and 2007. The bank and the pension fund did not disclose the amount of the settlement.
It is the third lawsuit ABP has settled with banks and lenders over RMBS; the first two were against JP Morgan and Countrywide Financial, now part of Bank of America. ABP has cases against five others still ongoing; Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, Credit Suisse, Morgan Stanley and Ally Financial.
It is a condition of the deals ABP has struck with JP Morgan, Countrywide and Deutsche that the amounts of the settlements not be revealed. ABP has also never revealed what its losses were. However, a source familiar with the situation said ABP could have won several tens of millions of euros from its settlements to date.
In the Deutsche Bank case, ABP had sued the German bank for making "false and misleading statements" about the securities it bought, which turned out to be backed by mortgage loans "worth significantly less than had been represented".
Deutsche Bank denied, and continues to deny, these allegations, ABP said in its statement this morning. Deutsche Bank did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
ABP is the pension fund for public employees in the governmental and education sectors in the Netherlands. It has assets under management of about €281bn.

This thread ought to make Relic very depressed as well, dont bank on it though.
This thread ought to make Relic very depressed as well, dont bank on it though.
They could argue that the best players could do it with any race... so if they don't want to be concerned they don't have to be.
And her beauty was all the more elegant and graceful, preserved forever unchanged within the depths, for her innocence and youth would last forever, within that great glacier of ice.
~ OD-Rapier
Yes but if they read DoWSanctuary then they know it's a FACT that 'top eldar players' CAN'T do it with any race. Viper is the latest to try to get chaos to the top, I believe he gave up after a week, if that..
Edit: I once managed to get a random account in the top 20 early this patch. Of course i only ran into one eldar and a few chaos so i guess i was lucky
I'll go flame some bacon up instead
Last edited by OjKa; 16th Jun 05 at 7:09 AM.
I agree, relic did a great job at balancing. It's just that the good players all chose eldar for some reason and left us mediocres with SM/Ork/Chaos ^.^
No seriously. This is a good thread and we should try to keep the flaming low. Lets just concentrate on the upsides, like Unisystem (aqwerty) being the latest 'top' eldar claiming that he can bring chaos to top 20 or top 10 or something to prove that he isn't just abusing the most op race
Apparently he has played 5 games and only lost once so far, that being to an eldar who turreted his beach on DMC ^.^
I give him 3 days before giving up in disgust.
Non mihi,
non tibi,
sed nobis.
The balance team just really needs to reconsider releasing a patch like this one. Not flaming in anyway, but I'm not going to kiss but either.
I guess if we wanted to flame someone, we could flame all the Eldar for just being better than us, as Relic would put it.
A patch isn't likely with WA comming soon. Too much money, too little benifit for Relic. I'm sure they know we will all buy WA regardless of a 1.4, any fan base doing this much complaining obviously likes its game. So if we like it, we will buy it, making 1.4 nothing more than a losing propsition for relic. If they make another patch, it still won't be perfect, and whole new problems will arise. So potentially they could lose money while making the game WORSE, which given the risk to benifit ratio seems unexceptable for a company looking to profit (which all businesses need to do).
Unlike some, I'm ok (though not totally happy) with waiting for WA to fix things.
The real question is, WILL there be changes in WA to fix things or are they balancing IG around the races, as they are now? In other words, will WA just slap down a new race and new units with out addressing current problems?
Relic said they have made a number of large changes to many units to fit in the IG. So, it probably means old problems wont be problems anymore, and new problems will arise.
This was off a E3 video on GameSpot if you don't beleive me...
I'd have agreed with you if we were still on 1.2. As things stand now, I see too many "no chaos" games (though they were present during 1.2), plus I feel somewhat unable to utilise my fave unit, because I dislike "I win" buttons and it's not worth the abuse that's often a result of using them.Originally Posted by Stepsongrapes
Even ignoring the balance issues, I seem to have more trouble getting in to games since the patch, which is a shame.
1.2 was probably better balanced than 1.3. Given the choice, I would go back to getting FP lamers every other game, at least then I lasted beyond the initial guard rush. Nerfing scout dmg rather than reducing squad sizes was a remarkably stupid move given that the guard rush leading to SS uberguards was very hard to defend anyway.
Not everyone used scouts to rush with, unfortunatley no-one realised they were an important factor in defending rushes too. Hell, even slugga rush got much harder to deal with.
I have seen the future. It's two very large groups of Warpspiders shooting at each other :weep:
Well, we're not getting another patch. According to a mod on another thread, Relic's official stance apparently mirror's Tranz's - the patch is balanced as Relic intended it to be, and we're all whiners if we can't handle defilers levelling our bases in under 30 seconds or warp spiders eating ten times their cost in Boyz.
Sterling, if you are talking about Uber's post, that's not quite what he or Tranj said.
Tranj said Relic believed it to be balanced, but there was a caveat that they would make further changes if needed.
In other words, there's no definitive "yes" OR "no" to future patches, at the moment.
If you are referring some other Mod's statement, please give me a link, because I must have missed it.
All my "by the numbers" posts and other useful info:
Actually weve had fairly strong indicators that there WILL be another patch (not a definite guaruntee yet but Id say its more likely to happen than not).
TBS, I have faith in Relic to deliver another patch.
Just not necessarily before WA ships. It really depends on how much resources they have.. for example they could release a patch which has many of the changes to the units we have now for the WA (which is work they're doing anyway for the WA), however that might not be practical if it relies on new units, or other game play changes of various kinds that may be happening in WA.
I've been lead to believe that Relic is a rather small (though talented) company which is why I assume there resources are rather limited, and working on WA, and CoH.. sounds to me like it should be taking up most of there resources (I mean giants like Bioware and Blizzard only work on 1-3 games at a time ) It might however, be part of working on WA, and so they could release a patch then with relative ease.
Good morning again!

Top 20 totals:
15 Eldar
3 Space Marines
1 Chaos
1 Ork
Jiav has won 2 more games as Eldar and 1 as Space Marine since the last list, which is inconclusive. If we list Jiav as Eldar than we have a complete sweep of Eldar for the top ten.
Chaos edges back in the top 20, and Charlie is back with the orks! One can only guess who ImaSmurf really is...

1 Ork
Grand Totals 1-50:
32 Eldar
8 Space Marines
8 Chaos
2 Orks
32:18 Eldar to non-Eldar, Eldar is now almost double all other races combined. Eldar continue to dominate the top 10 (all 10) and have gained 3 spots in the top 50.
Chaos is moving up and is now seen as an equal to Space Marines, both having 8.
Orks lose a spot, and are barely hanging in there with 2.
TE is pushing for the top, as Select has to fight him off. It's interesting that Select and Select2 maybe the same person, and eclipser and eclo may also be the same person. That would mean that 2 people are holding 4 of the top 10 spots! TmG still holds the lead with 7 accounts in the top 50, whereas TE has 6. It looks to be an interesting battle forming up!
I wonder what the in-house testers think of this thread?
/me continues pondering aloud questions that no one has asked, and are generally accepted as painfully obvious
That's just sick32:18 Eldar to non-Eldar, Eldar is now almost double all other races combined.
Ah well at least eldar players can be proud of there uber skills..
click auto button...click on eldar...click auto...hope your opponet isnt eldar and voila!
Let's all spam defiler's, sorceror's, WoTE, nob leaders, laspreds, termies, heroes and uber-units to knock a few eldar outta the the top 50...
...THROW EVERYTHING AT THEM!!!!!!!!(still wouldn't work)
-Eldar Player defending 120 guardsmen armour
a lot of the top 50 eldar accounts are smurfs.
IAmSmurf or whatever is [OoE]Thor... the other [OoE] account in top 50 (Rockz) is also his accounting for 3 top 50 chaos accounts. TE|Youlian is SM/Chaos player but listed as chaos because of a few more games there. Khayotic is random/Chaos... looks like sleign might have gone back to playing chaos more then random on that account ^.^. Starterkit is Chaos/Orks/Eldar but shown as chaos. Actually I think that RUW_Foozy and Thor is the only ones with pure chaos accounts in top 50 right now.
Select = Select2 yes
Eclipser = Eclo
Jiav = Inf|Xar IIRC
Roronoa_Zoro = Lufy
[4R]Lee_S_S = LeeSoonShin
As you can see, 3 people have 6 out of top 10. actually 6 out of top 8 and all top 5.
So who is www_Ownage_nl? Anyone special?
I don't know but I lost a lot of points to him got matched against him 3 times in a row, utter bollocks. I honestly don't see the point in what all the 'top' players are doing.
"OMG LOOK I CAN FLOOD THE TOP 100 WITH ELDAR ACCOUNTS WOOT I AM PART OF THE PROBLEM BUT IT'S OK BECAUSE ELDAR NEED l337 MICRO!"
Fucking idiots.
Tab F?IT'S OK BECAUSE ELDAR NEED l337 MICRO!"
2 Orks.
*waves a small flag*
Go Orks. Go Team. Woohoo. :blah:
Don't worry guys- when Ork learns about this power-teching maybe things will change. A little (like 5 Orks in the top 100? Maybe?). To correct some problems people are having with smurf names, Jiav = inF|Xar = AriXar, and he plays 100% Eldar competitively. He only plays SM in custom so yes, Eldar has swept the top 10. Furthermore, Lufy = LeeSoonShin = [4R]Lee_S_S = Roronoa_Zoro. Yep, that's right, 4 smurf names for one guy. Zoro, Lufy, and Lee are all one guy; it's some Korean who wishes he was as gosu as SeleCT (and thus plays 24/7) but really can't cut it at the top ranks. Thus, he just lodges more and more names into the low 20/30's in hopes of becoming better. Regardless, I think the Eldar domination is complete.
I'd love to see the actual top ten players. You know, without the smurfed names n such. Might be interesting to see if the Eldar really have conquered the ladder or if it's just a couple of Eldar players with a dozen smurf accounts.
the only thing that charlie prove, is that you need to be overskilled to go in the top ladder, and that only best player ll be able to play orks so high in the ladder, that prove that charlie has beter skill than all players who play eldars only cause they are overpowered, cause with same skill an ork cant win an eldar...Originally Posted by Da_Fish

1.4 incoming ? hu
it's reality, eldar are over (oh only gardian, reaper, tower, prism, economy, peon, waygate and CLAUDETTE).
Eldar is a Key.
Um, jeantend, Ari|Xar is not skilless. Charlie and ari play at a very similar level of style and skill, you need only watch jiavs work against eldar. Generalise and you need a slap as there are skilled eldar. Ari just got sick of the eldar domination in the ladder, as have many good players and now plays eldar because it's the only thing that can really compete.
this thread makes little children cry...what about team games though? how are the races doing in auto team games? i'd imagine chaos/sm are top

27:23 Eldar to non-Eldar, Eldar still outnumbers all other races combined, but its not as bad as the 32:18 split we saw last week. Space Marines have gained 4 spots, Chaos lost 1, and Orks gain 2.
On a little side note, I made 1st place on the non-competitive ladder- too bad I don't have the skills to even get in the top 100 on the competitive one
The other races are actually starting to gain a little ground....KEEP IT UP!!!
aye, I will give Thor a run for the money for top chaos spot. Watch out top 10 eldars cause you're gonna get spanked if you don't kill me quickly enough
damn we have lost Charlie in top 20 !!!
kill the eldars ! free the orks !!!!
Congrats on that Perp!On a little side note, I made 1st place on the non-competitive ladder
I'm actually playing ladder. I find Chaos being the easiest for me, but I'm trying real hard for Orks! Been busy, he he Gotta help the cause.
Ya ain't lost nothing buddy; look again.damn we have lost Charlie in top 20 !!!
kill the eldars ! free the orks !!!!
Edit: that's not to say I wouldn't like to see the Eldars killed, and maybe 25% of the ladder Orky instead of the current 4-6%. But who am I kidding eh?

Jiav has shown no action since the last list, so we still don't know if he has gone fully over to Eldar. Select now holds both of the top spots, with a new Space Marine in Fear coming up to third. We see Chaos drop out of the top 20 completely. The last list was a 13/4/2/1 split, so Eldar gains 3, Space Marines lose 1, Chaos lose both of their 2, and Ork keeps steady with only 1.

Not only that. Playing on 1v1 Automatch it seems 70-80% of players are now Eldar. I figure people have given up trying to win with other races.
As soon as the cover artist, proof reader and everything else I rely on other people to do is done, I'll let you know.

Man the whines we will have to listen to if eldar get nerfed substantly.
eldar is my best matchup right now so I wont whine about eldars ^.^ I would much rather whine about the other races because those who play them actually knows how not to make mistake, unlike the eldar hoes who does the same things over and over again and makes plenty of mistakes for me to capitalize on :P
Probably the same thing I notice. Most Eldar players mass guardians, rush, build some reapers have a massive advantage after than. If you manage to weather the storm, a lot of them don't know what to do after that.
I figure Chaos has a much better chance of fighting off Eldar due to CSM massing and your slowing hero. Of course, there is always the chance that BSs will hop in, kill your heretics, wraith tomb the barracks, guardians + FS slaughter the Cultists and you'll never get a single decent unit out.
Well, seeing as most (eg, Sps) have been insisting that their race needs a serious buff, and any nerfs at all will make it unable to compete...Man the whines we will have to listen to if eldar get nerfed substantly.

Fishman Files FEC Complaint Against WCVB
He's been left out of a debate, and he's not backing down.
Libertarian congressional candidate Daniel Fishman has filed a complaint against WCVB with the Federal Elections Commission.
WCVB is planning a 6th District congressional candidates' debate on Thursday, and Fishman was not invited because he did not meet their criteria: A candidate must have a certain number of staff members, a daily campaign schedule, communicate on a regular basis with news media, garner at least 10 percent in two recent independent polls and have campaign contributions of at least $50,000.
Fishman's complaint alleges that WCVB's criteria are in violation of FEC guidelines.
First, the FEC mandates that a station use "pre-established criteria" to determine who is allowed to participate. In his complaint, Fishman says that the debate criteria were announced two weeks before the debate, which he says does not qualify as pre-established.
Fishman also takes issue with the station's requirement that a candidate receive more at least 10 percent in two independent polls since there have not been two independent polls in which Fishman was included and garnered less than 10 percent. He also alleges that the $50,000 requirement is discriminatory against candidates who do not take corporate contributions.
What do you think? Should Fishman be allowed to participate in the WCVB debate? Leave a comment below and discuss.
Bryan McGonigle2
11:04 am on Tuesday, October 23, 2012
He makes a solid argument that there are laws in this area and the TV station is violating the law. I'm in favor of following the law. If the law is on his side and the current evidence presented in the Patch indicates it is, he should be allowed to participate.
Whether these are good laws is an entirely different question.

Cloth Diapers
Cloth Diapers From Tiny Tush are affordable, durable, and economical. Try modern cloth diapers and you will see how easy they are to use.
Cloth diapers are available in many different styles for your cloth diapering needs.
All In One Cloth DiapersJust as the name implies, All In One Diapers are a diaper and cover "all in one". They are the most convenient cloth diaper available. They are fitted diapers and are as easy to use as disposable diapers, but much more economical, because they are reusable. |
One Size Fitted Cloth DiapersOne size cloth diapers are diapers that are usually adjustable from newborn to potty training. Some one size cloth diapers require a diaper cover and one size diapers have a water proof exterior where they do not require a diaper cover. |
Fitted Cloth Diapers:Fitted diapers are also a convenient way to diaper your baby. They are super-absorbent and most have elastic at the waist and legs with an adjustable snap or Velcro style (hook and loop) closure to fit your baby snugly and provide a customized, leak-proof fit. A diaper cover is needed when using fitted diapers. Fitted cloth diapers may come in a variety of sizes to fit your baby as he or she grows. Fitted cloth diapers are also available as one-size diapers and all-in-one one size diapers. |
Contour Cloth Diapers:Contour diapers are a basic diaper which is one step up from a flat rectangular prefolded cloth diaper. Contour cloth diapers are trimmer than prefolds, and are an economical alternative to fitted. They are a terrific way to diaper your baby. Contour diapers are contour shaped and are easy to use. Contour diapers are in-between a flat/prefold diaper and a fitted diaper. They can be used with diaper fasteners to keep them secure or can be used without fasteners when using a snug fitting diaper wrap. |
Pocket Diapers:Pocket diapers are a two piece stay dry diapering system usually made with a soft micro fleece lining that will wick moisture away from your child's skin and a waterproof outer shell. The pocket design works like an all in one with a removable absorbent core which allows for easier laundering and faster drying time. |
Prefolds or Chinese Prefolds:If you are looking for the most economical way to diaper your baby (or just want the most time-tested method) consider Prefolds. Unlike the kind you will find at a discount store, the high-quality Prefolds sold in natural baby boutiques are made to withstand hundreds of washings. They begin as rectangular-shaped diapers that are divided into three sections. The outer sections usually have a thickness of four layers. To provide absorbency where it's needed, the center section has six or eight layers. The layers are defined on the prefold packaging as 4-6-4 (four outer layers and six center layers) or 4-8-4 (four outer layers and eight center layers). To use Prefolds, simply fold and secure with diaper fasteners or secure with a quality diaper cover. |

Ohio State G Deshaun Thomas: When Thomas gets to the free throw line, he's capable of scoring 25 easily. He had 19 points or more in 19 games this season and has three years postseason experience.
Kansas State G Rodney Magruder: Stars haven't always flourished in Bruce Weber's system, a motion offense that had no room for isolation breakdowns and one-on-one basketball. Magruder made the subtle adjustments and is thriving down the stretch. He averaged just 15.7 points per game, but that ability to dominate down the stretch can help set the Wildcats apart this month.
55.4: Points per game allowed by Pittsburgh. Opponents managed only 60 possessions per game and the physical Panthers, no high-scoring outfit by any measure, are also top 10 nationally in rebounds.
18.2: Gonzaga's scoring margin, which was first in the nation.
65.2: Olynyk's field-goal percentage. He's ranked third in the nation in that category.
9.7: Turnovers per game by Wisconsin this season. The Badgers were top 15 in that category as well as scoring defense, 3-point defense, assist-turnover ratio and personal fouls per game.

As we were planning our Belize Honeymoon, advice flew forth from friends, fast and furious:
"Go to Ambergris Caye! It's more posh and there's more to do."
"No, Caye Caulker is so much better! It's so chill and relaxing."
Back and forth the factions battled, until at last Colin and I settled on three nights in Ambergris Caye, followed by one night in the center of Caye Caulker.
That way we could sample each and compare.
What's the verdict?
We loved both islands, each in their own special way, but we were happy with how we timed our stay.
Here is the tale of our time in Caye Caulker so you can make your own decision.
Colin and I were so relaxed during our stay in Ambergris Caye that we guffawed when locals told us, "Caye Caulker is where we go to chill out. It's much more laid-back than here."
"How is it possible to be more relaxed than Ambergris Caye?" I asked in shock.
But the moment we stepped off the water taxi onto Caye Caulker, we understood.
The vibe on the tiny island is so completely chill that we fell immediately into a hazy, happy stupor.
We dropped our bags at the hotel (a two minute walk from the water taxi, as most things are, given the size of the Caye), and began wandering.
There are no cars on the island, so except for the occasional slow-moving golf-cart, we could stroll down the center of the dirt roads in peace. It's so relaxing to hear zero motors in the air!
First we wandered south of the water taxi dock. I was starving, but it was 4pm and not much seemed to be open.
We sauntered along the beach, which grew wilder as we walked on.
"Oooh!" we cooed, ogling a hotel that featured weather-worn beach bungalows on stilts between the sea and jungle.
Speaking of jungle, we then came to a wall of green trees.
Ever-resourceful, Colin spotted a path into the thicket. I trailed along behind, scouring the earth with my eyes for snakes.
We trudged through the thick, steamy jungle. "The last time I blindly wandered an island, I was in Thailand," I muttered. "I'm scared!"
"Don't worry," said Colin, "Hippies have been here!" He pointed at the neatly painted signs labeling each of the tree species in front of us.
"Oh good," I sighed.
Sure enough, after a few more minutes of jungle tromping, we emerged into a dusty golden dirt road. We peered around and realized we'd hiked to the end of the tiny island.
"Let's hike to the other end now!" I sang.
So this time we walked through the center of Caye Caulker, passing wind-caressed wooden houses, locals sitting or strolling tranquilly outside, a man wheeling a giant cart of brightly colored plastic thingies, happy visitors, and so on.
Not much time had passed before we spotted the far tip of Caye Caulker.
"It's called "The Split" because that's where it split from that other land over there," I told Colin.
All around the island tip, azure water lapped at the crumbling concrete barriers. Gleeful swimmers of all colors and backgrounds bobbed in the water and reggae music wafted from a homey wooden restaurant.
We bought ice cream because we ached for it. Colin's cone was better than mine, despite my initial certainty that "Chocolate Crunch" would best "White and Dark Choco." Luckily, my husband was kind and let me take some bites.
Then we spied several piers stretching into the water, unguarded.
"Are those hammocks swinging from the end of that pier???" I exclaimed. We closed in to investigate. Yes, by golly– there were two delicious hammocks overlooking the Caribbean Sea.
Colin and I snuggled into the rope cocoons and swung gently in the breeze.
We licked ice cream and watched two people attempt unsuccessfully to kite surf.
The kite made a "BLAT!" sound each time it smashed onto the ocean surface: the loudest sound we heard our whole time in car-free Caye Caulker.
After an hour of hammocking, it was a respectable dinner time, and thus we walked to the first open-air restaurant we found: an excellent Belizean-Italian joint.
I ate seafood lasagna and Colin scarfed a fire-grilled lobster with watermelon and mango.
"This island is awesome," I purred between mouthfuls.
"We would have had a different Honeymoon flavor if we spent more time here," said Colin, "but I'm content how we timed things."
"What?" I said. "My brain is not on right now."
The equatorial sun sank behind the beach palm trees in front of us, turning the ocean periwinkle, then silver-black.
So what about you, dear reader? Which seems more your scene: lively and refined Ambergris Caye, or chilled-out-to-the-max Caye Caulker?
12 Responses to "Caye Caulker vs. Ambergris Caye, Belize: Which Wins?"
Hello! My fiance and I are currently planning our honeymoon in Belize coming up in August! I'm curious – which hotel did you stay in on Caulker Caye? I think we are going to spend 2 nights there
Hi Sandra– Congrats! I actually don't remember the name of that hotel because we chose a budget option after the fine luxury we did for the rest of our trip. I recommend using online hotel rating sites to pick a place, as they're usually on target if they have enough respondents. You'll love Caye Caulker! Have a wonderful time!
Sounds so relaxing! And clearly, you must be super-relaxed, because you actually shared ice cream
Hehe. It was all in the name of upgrading my flavor!
Congrats on your wedding, and nice to see you made it to Belize. I'm a Caye Caulker girl myself. Enjoy the rest of your honeymoon!
Thanks so much, Lily! I just did a great snorkeling trip with Splash Dive Center and Patty says hello to you. And yes, it is not hard to enjoy our Honeymoon in Belize. What an awesome country!
Aw so nice! Tell Patty I said hi if you're still in Placencia. Happy to hear you're loving Belize. Now you see why I went back so many times.
Yes, yes, and yes!
Great photos! Glad you enjoyed your honeymoon!! Sounds like two great locations! Lisa-
Thanks so much, but don't use past tense– still in Belize and rockin' it out!
You guys are truly amazing! This is great information based on a real experience! Thank you!

Ride-on Vehicles
Shopbot Selection
Ride-on vehicles are very popular toys for kids from 12 months to 10 years old. They are good for developing the child's first steps and serve as walkers and exercise equipment for their young arms and legs. They have an average price, but parents who can afford them get one or two ride-on types for their kids.
Types of Ride-On Vehicles
Push-along Ride-ones have a detachable handle, a steering wheel, a safety tray, a sound and some songs. When the child gets older, parents manage it and the safety tray can be removed for a continuous enjoyment of the ride-on toy. The Bruin 4-in-1 Activity Rocker Ride-on has these features. This is recommended for children who are 10 months old and above. It is effortless to assemble, sturdy, fun and safe. It is useful indoors or outdoors. It is convenient to bring along wherever possible because it is portable.
However, there is no control to keep the rocker from over rocking forwards or backwards. The hard puzzle objects in front of the ride-on vehicle can hurt the child's mouth if bitten hardly. There were reports about bleeding babies' mouths because of those hard puzzle pieces. Ride-ones for Toddlers are for babies learning to walk. These ride-ones help them with their first steps and serve as walkers. The rider needs to stride his legs in order to move the vehicle and this becomes easy because of the strong four wheels.
The Fisher-Price Laugh and Learn Stride-to-Ride Puppy included some educational features like three shapes for sorting or for feeding the puppy which are really very few; 50 plus sing-along songs that teach letters, colors and numbers while the baby is riding or playing with the vehicle. Positive phrases can also be heard for baby's encouragement. The head of the puppy swivels sideways, ears flop, nose and collar light up along with the music. Pressing the nose makes the puppy say different phrases for the child. However, this vehicle is inflexible and hard to maneuver whether on carpet or hard but smooth floors.
Loosening the screws to make this ride-on more maneuverable is not a good idea and is not helpful at all. Wheels are not big enough, look feeble and have rotation issues. This ride-on makes sounds that it is very pleasant for both parents and children. Battery Powered / Electric Ride-on Vehicles use rechargeable batteries and come with a remote control that works within 100 feet and would automatically stop the vehicle beyond that distance. The rider can control the vehicle with the pedals, steering wheel and buttons or if the parents prefer, they can control the vehicle with or without their kids inside it by only using the remote control.
The Razor Ground Force Drifter Kart is very popular among older kids from age 8 and it has won many awards which including "Toy of the Year". This ride-on vehicle runs 12 miles per hour and is powered by two 12-volt batteries for a 45-minute drive each charging. Anyone who weighs 140 lbs. which is the maximum weight allowed can ride this drifter kart. Users say that the battery lasts even as long as one hour, longer that what is advertised. But there are unlucky ones who complain about the battery life which is less than 45 minutes. The sad part is that batteries need recharging of around 12 hours for every less than an hour use. It doesn't have a rear or a headlight, so, driving at night needs some creativity.
Others just use a flashlight as a magic bullet just to enjoy driving when the streets are not too busy for playing. The rear tires, although hard-looking, get out of shape after around twelve rides. They still work but become a little shaky. This kart should not be used on grassy areas or rugged roads. The Power Wheels Dune Racer is another ride-on that uses a 12V battery and a charger. It has rugged tires that are big enough to accommodate two kids in the cockpit. This is good for kids who are 3 years to 7 years old. It can carry a maximum of 130 lbs. and its steel frame looks heavy-duty. The pedals are a little bit far from the seat, shorter kids might find it hard to reach the pedal. Assembly is fast except for the tires which have directional threads. Front wheels are marked but the rear wheels are not.
There is a big chance to interchange them. Wheel installation seems impossible to reverse. The wheels can go anywhere from up to downhill, grassy, rugged or smooth grounds it's not a big deal. Pedal ride-on vehicles need the use of pedals to move them around. They don't need any battery to power up. These ride-ones are dual purpose, enjoyment and exercise. One very attractive pedal ride-on is the InStep Fire Truck Pedal Car which is definitely unique and looks like a classic fire truck for kids who 3 years old and above. The steel frame has a lot of details and looks sturdy. The pedals are kind of hard to use especially for younger kids. Assembly is definitely a challenge. Those who want to have something easy to assemble and made of a light plastic should look around. This ride-on would last for more than a decade but it's kind of hard to maneuver at first and needs skills to assemble.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "The flowery, crisp, nutty, fresh, light straw-colored 2006 Fino en Rama was aged for two years in American oak. A delightful wine, it cuts a broad texture throughout the mouth, but its fresh acids, floweriness and vibrancy make for a remarkable drink. Consume it within a year or so of purchase."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The ripe fruits go straight to the heart of this powerful, orange peel and citrus wine. There are yellow fruits, balanced with fresh acidity. The ensemble is rich, but balanced."
Cellar/Tasting Notes Clear, deep lemon with a clean and pronounced nose of lavender blossom, stewed figs, green beans, and a really fun shade leaf characteristic. The palate reveals a sweet wine with medium acidity and a full body with flavors of dried apricots and nectarines, sultana, ginger, and palmetto honey. The..
Cellar/Tasting Notes Produced on a small property owned by the Medeville family, who also own Château Gilette, this wine is of excellent value. It offers up aromas of pineapple, peach and spring flowers; the wine is unctuous without being too heavy, the palate balanced beautifully by an almost racy acidity.
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Keen aromas of olives and seaspray carry through on the rich, almost oily palate, where flavors of herbs and black pepper are assertive yet delicate..." - Wine Spectator
Cellar/Tasting Notes Vidal Icewine displays rich tropical aromas of papaya, mango and apricot. Bold fruit flavors balanced with fine acidity caress the palate and conclude with an exquisite silky finish.
Cellar/Tasting Notes "A richly liquorous wine, ripe and packed with harmonious sweet textures. At the same time over the ripe structure there is a layer of lively lemon, spice and ginger, spiked with fresh tangerines. The end result is smooth, balanced and vibrant."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Ebulliently floral on the nose, this decadently creamy Tokaji bursts with characteristic honey, peach preserve and dried fig sweetness. A streak of citrusy acidity adds balance, while subtle hints of caramelized sugar and tea leaves add twists to the long, honey-kissed finish."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Bold, lush and tropical in feel, with creamed papaya and mango notes seamlessly gliding together, while coconut, green plum, ginger, quince and white peach flavors fill in the background. Offers a succulent finish, but stays pure and steady thanks to perfectly embedded acidity."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "A blend of barrels taken by Nicolas Tari. A total of 46 barrels produced. This sample taken before any racking has taken place although there will probably be one in May (instead since the 2004 vintage, the wine rests upon its lees with batonnage dependent upon each barrel.)

Interesting, huh?
All this is to distract you from the fact that my outfit is pretty meh today. I thought it looked nice in the mirror this morning, but I am less enamoured of it in my picture. What the hey, I am comfortable and perfectly warm. I do like the interesting little peep of floral cross-stitched silk skirt coming out the bottom. Ah well, you win some me-made days and you lose some. :)
I've finished my "wacky" project, and will wear it soon; not tomorrow, but soon. I'm pretty excited about how it turned out now! It is weird and wonderfully so!! Imo, anyway... :D
And this afternoon after I have finished my office work I am planning a little dyeing session, on another recently almost-completed project (wish me luck ;))
Watch this space!
Picture taken around 1pm; Temperature at the time 21C.
Overnight low: 13C; Today's high: 22C
Mostly fine and cloudy, very very windy. That is my excuse for the hair :)
Dress; Burdastyle magazine 06/2011, dress 102, purple shot rayon, details and my review of this pattern here, and see this dress styled in 6 different ways here
Skirt; Burda 8071 with the bodice removed, cross-stitched silk dupion, details here (as a dress) and here (turning it into a skirt)
Cardigan; knitted by me, Jo Sharp's Knitted Cardigan with the addition of knitted lace edging on the sleeve hems, using Jo Sharp Soho Summer DK Cotton in Sapote (col 216), details here
Shoes; Bronx, from Zomp shoes

I would measure health as "Not being sick" and all things functioning normally.
Measuring fitness would be tougher as it will mean many different things to many different people. But I guess the basic measurement would be in your ability to perform everyday tasks without difficulty. And BMI is crap. You could be very unhealthy and have a good BMI. I've known some cancer patients with a good BMI... |

If you do more than sit on the couch all day, BMI is pretty useless. It would call derek poundstone obese. On the other hand, its much more than how you feel.
I have a very different opinion on what fitness is than a long distance runner would. The whole thing is too subjective for a single definitive answer. Health has very little to do with how you feel though. You may not even know how bad you feel until you get healthier.

how you feel and BMI have very little to do with health and fitness, in terms of health a doctor would say absence of disease is health which is shit, health is a combo of mind body and spirit that when in flow with one another make up this abstract concept called 'health', as for fitness this should be measured with a baseline stress test for your age group, I personally believe anyone claiming they are fit should be performing in the top 10% of their age group in any standardized testing measure. When you consider that these tests are standardized on random sectors of population, being average really means you are overweight and out of shape. According to government 66% of pop is overweight or obese leaving 33% underweight or normal weight pretty ****ing pathetic.

Height/weight and BMI never factor in. I'm the heaviest I've ever been and my BP and cholesterol are the lowest they have ever been. Now as far as fitness, I guess I could say cardiovascular fitness as measured by endurance-type activities like walking, hiking, running.
"Look son, there comes a time in every man's life when he has to make a decision. Do you want to be big, powerful, jacked, yoked-up, have women everywhere want you and men fear you . . . or do you want to do crossfit?" |

Hard question to answer. People slightly higher on the BMI scale than what is considered normal tend to live longer.

You can be fit but not necessarily healthy and you can be healthy yet unfit. But the simple answer to your question is that neither of you is right because it's more complex than that, as highlighted by the other posters.

On the few social occasions that I had a chin-wag with Larry Hagman, he talked not at all about his acting career, not much about the renown of his birthright -- a reference or two to his mother, Mary Martin -- and a great deal about renewable energy and living "off the grid."
Yep, the man whose TV career was founded on oil -- first thanks to that fetching genie living in an ancient oil lamp and then as a Texas petroleum tycoon -- was a devotee of alternative energy.
At a lively dinner in Brentwood and then at a couple of New Year's events in Ojai, where Hagman had what Texans would call a small "spread" of 42 acres, he described ardently to me how how he and his wife, Maj, had outfitted their property to be as self-sufficient and energy independent as possible. He had a couple of hybrid cars, and this was maybe a dozen years ago, when, if you said you drove a Prius, people said, "a what?"
He clearly took pride in being able to run a self-sustaining operation, even having factored in his own water supply and water conservation on his property.
His foundation endorsed solar undertakings, and Hagman also supported SELF, the Solar Electric Light Fund, to bring energy to developing countries.
It's not the conversation I would have predicted when I first found myself sitting with Hagman at a friend's backyard dinner that evening. But over the years, I'm sure his enthusiastic green version of the Golden Rule probably made more environmental converts among even Texans than a film festival's worth of admonitory documentaries could have done. And there is his foundation's motto, a spin on what his J.R. Ewing character made possible: "Evil does good."

Crispin Odey to launch Swan fund
by Emma Dunkley on Feb 20, 2013 at 11:07
Crispin Odey is launching a multi asset 'swan' fund for his eponymous investment boutique.
The Odey Swan fund, which launches at the start of March, will give investors a Ucits IV version of Odey's (pictured) flagship long/short strategy.
While the fund has the flexibility to invest across all asset classes, it will aim to deliver an absolute return mainly through developed market equities, where it will take both long and short positions. It can invest up to 20% of the portfolio in emerging markets.
The Dublin-domiciled fund will adopt a research-intensive strategy, leveraging off the firm's macro and fundamental research.
It will use the euro as a base currency, with sterling and dollar share classes also on offer.
The fund levies an annual fee of 1% for the institutional share class and 1.5% for the retail share class, with a performance fee of 20% of net gains.

The Bachelor of Arts in Geography was first offered at Hofstra in 1936, and has been an important part of the Hofstra curriculum ever since.
Geography is the science of place and space. Geographers ask where things are located on the surface of the earth, why they are located where they are, how places differ from one another, and how people interact with the environment.
There are two main branches of geography: human geography and physical geography. Human geography is concerned with the spatial aspects of human existence - how people and their activity are distributed in space, how they use and perceive space, and how they create and sustain the places that make up the earth's surface. Human geographers work in the fields of urban and regional planning, transportation, marketing, real estate, tourism, and international business.
Physical geographers study patterns of climates, land forms, vegetation, soils, and water. They forecast the weather, manage land and water resources, and analyze and plan for forests, rangelands, and wetlands. Many human and physical geographers have skills in cartography and Geographic Information Systems (GIS).
Geographers also study the linkages between human activity and natural systems. Geographers were, in fact, among the first scientists to sound the alarm that human-induced changes to the environment were beginning to threaten the balance of life itself. They are active in the study of global warming, desertification, deforestation, loss of biodiversity, groundwater pollution, and flooding.
Geography is an attractive major for students. Its theories and methods provide analytical techniques applicable to a wide range of questions asked over a broad spectrum of occupations. For students planning to end their formal education with the bachelor's degree, a geography major provides marketable skills and the broad perspectives on environment and society that enable graduates to move beyond entry-level positions.
Geography also provides a sound foundation for students who plan to enter graduate work in a variety of fields, from geography to business, land use planning, law, and medicine. The advent of GIS has substantially expanded the job openings for geographers. GIS is now used in almost all large corporations, and in public sector activities as diverse as the Census Bureau, the military, police departments, geological surveys, and most municipalities. In a recent article in Nature, the U.S. Department of Labor identified geographic information technology as "one of the three most important emerging and evolving fields, along with nanotechnology and biotechnology. Job opportunities are growing and diversifying as geospatial technologies prove their value in ever more areas." (http://www.aag.org/nature.pdf).
After graduating with a degree in geography, you have multiple career sources in both the public and private sectors. If you are interested in a career in geography, follow the links on this site or feel free at any time to consult with one of our faculty.
Programs and Courses
B.A. Major in Geography
The Bachelor of Arts in Geography is offered by Hofstra's College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. The Department offers a wide selection of geography courses, balancing offerings in thematic and regional geography.
Use the prefixes GEOG (Geography) or GS (Global Studies) to find the most up-to-date information about courses offered in this department.

EA will publish Star Wars games for multiple years, with the developers of Battlefield and Dead Space working on new projects.
Time to weigh in on the latest news out of the Disney/Star Wars camp.
There's no way we could've believed Star Wars games were going to die with the closing of LucasArts. No,it was the Monkey Islands, Full Throttles and Grim Fandangos of LucasArts glory years that were truly lost in that unfortunate studio closure.
To be perfectly frank, you can probably count on one or two hands the fun, good and notable Star Wars games that have come out since 2000.
I know the knee jerk reaction from the gaming community is to be wary, skeptical or even insult EA. Lots of gamers are mistrusting of EA as a whole, despite putting out some of the most successful and best games on the market. That's not to say they put out winners all the time. Their games run the spectrum of great to shitty so often you'd think someone is slipping their devs Ex-Lax at random. There's a very real possibility that their take on Star Wars games could be a disappointing waste of time, but more than likely they'll provide a few good titles.
DICE, Visceral and Bioware are strong studios with fair track records and everyone's already familiar with Bioware's Star Wars related work. Imagine a new, re-vamped Battlefront 3 for the current gen by the makers of Battlefield or a brand new KOTOR! This is just my opinion, but I think maybe it's time to step away from the Old Republic era. I understand there's a lot of freedom there since nobody really addressed it before Bioware, but I think at a certain point you're just beating a dead horse. It'd be nice to maybe see the Knights of the New Republic or 100 ABY where Darth Talon and Cade Skywalker are at odds. It's just a thought, they could use anything and I'd probably eat it up.
I was reading through reaction comments on Facebook to the news and someone referred to Visceral as "declawed" probably based on the more action oriented vibe to Dead Space 3 and the overall "why bother" vibe of a brand new Army of Two game. I disagree, though really, it could've gone to any studio do we need another crass, sardonic poorly written shooter, EA?
It'd be really cool if Visceral could pick up where LucasArts left on 1313. The concept of the game alone had me sold. It's not the strongest of stories, but imagine a Dead Space-esque Death Troopers game that injects some much needed graphic violence into an otherwise blood-free universe.
The possibilities are endless for this galaxy far, far away even with general trust issues people seem to have with EA. Healthy skepticism is apart of any reaction, but a quick, emotionally charged fanboy outrage just displays a form of ignorance the industry and community alike need to learn to get over.
With all that said, better not fuck it up, EA!
Seriously though, just read some of the comments on this photo
it's mostly sniveling and bitching. There's a certain air of truth behind itself

Allergic reactions come from activity in your immune system. Your immune system looks at every protein it comes across as either "friend" or "foe." Allergies happen when the immune system reacts against a food or environmental protein that should be a harmless "friend." This takes time and usually repeated exposures.
Why you react to an allergen that has not triggered an allergy in the past is one of the mysteries of the immune system. This process is known as "sensitization." In some cases, sensitization happens after your immune system is exposed to a very large "dose" of an allergen. For example, it is common for people who have multiple bee stings, and are exposed to a lot of bee venom, to develop an allergy to bee venom.
In the case of a food allergy, some scientists think that certain illnesses could cause allergens in your digestive tract to become more "visible" to the immune system. This might allow your immune system to spot proteins it had not seen before and start to react against a food protein.
An infection can stir up a reaction from the immune system. Sometimes good antibodies (which fight a bacteria or fungus) can "cross-react" with proteins from another source. Scientists think autoimmune problems -- when your immune system attacks your own tissue -- can be triggered by certain infections. It is possible this is a trigger for allergies as well.
Most allergies begin in childhood, but the reaction does not occur the first time a person is exposed. Allergies can also arise in adulthood.
