I don't have tons of evidence for this, but I think that it's not an accident that work like this is done by a female academic. We need to study human behavior the same way Jane Goodall studies chimp behavior, and—for various reasons—that's not what men in so-called "political science" tend to do.
Here's political scientist Cheryl Laird in Vox explaining a scientific approach to the question of why black people didn't turn out to vote in 2016 at the rate they did in 2012:
In our recent publication in the American Political Science Review, we argue that the continued social isolation of blacks in American society has created spaces and incentives for the emergence of black political norms. Democratic partisanship has become significantly tied to black identity in the United States. The historical and continued racial segregation of black communities has produced spaces in which in-group members can leverage social sanctions against other group members to ensure compliance with group partisan norms.
As a result, social sanctions are the main explanation for why black people behave in this collective manner. In other words, if a politician wants greater support from blacks, her best bet is getting the social processes within the community working in her favor.
They started with observing communities and moved on to a controlled experiment:
To see the power of these norms and social sanctions, we conducted a number of experiments that randomly assigned black participants to incentives to defect from a well-known norm of black politics: supporting Barack Obama. In one of the studies, we provided small amounts of cash that participants were told they...
But such experiments on humans are highly artificial, so an actual scientist looks to other data to either confirm or question the experimental results:
In a subsequent working paper, we expand on candidate support based on group norm and examine the reported partisanship by blacks in the face of social pressure from co-racial group members. Leveraging the race of the interviewers in the American National Election Study, we find that in face-to-face interviews, black respondents express significantly greater identification with the Democratic Party when interviewed by a black individual compared to being interviewed by a white individual or taken online (absent an interviewer).
Scientists are not perfect, including female ones. The word "leveraged" in this context is an abomination that should be left outside in a polar vortex to die. What Laird is trying to say is that they took advantage of the fact that the American National Election Study used both white and black interviewers to ask black people how they voted. This fact allowed them to check whether black people give different answers depending on the race of the interview. They do.
Good luck understanding this behavior using anything written by either Karl Marx or John Stuart Mill.

Timing as a cold&flu remedy
Everyone you chat to will have their own cure for the common cold. And they all probably work.
But few people are connected to themselves well enough to know the timing of when their cold first hits. The quicker you get in on the rise, the more effective the remedy.
Know this for yourself (mine is extra dry lips) and apply personal remedy accordingly.

Effectively Managing Blood Lipid Levels
R.D. Hawkins
The term blood lipid is synonymous with fat, and in fact most blood lipid molecules found floating around in our blood stream are primarily fat. These molecules play an important role in providing us with energy and are the primary building blocks for a number of compounds including bile, vitamin D, testosterone, and estrogen.
As you can see managing blood lipid levels is not as much about doing away with them completely as it is finding a way to balance their benefits and risks.
What are the risks if we fail to manage blood lipid levels?
The most obvious one is high cholesterol leading to atherosclerosis or hardening of the arteries. Atherosclerosis is process where the smooth interior lining of the arteries and veins becomes damaged leading to the accumulation of plaque deposits. Over time blood lipid particles floating by in the blood start to accumulate eventually culminating when calcium and fibrous tissue start to form causing hardening and narrowing of the artery. When this happens in the arteries surrounding the heart it is known as coronary artery disease, which is single largest cause of heart attack.
Are there any genetic conditions that make managing blood lipid levels difficult?
The answer is yes, and if you have any of these three genetic condition such as hypercholesterolemia, hyperlipidemia, or hypertriglyceridemia your blood lipid levels will be dangerously high primarily due to the overproduction of cholesterol by the liver. These conditions are very dangerous requiring more aggressive blood lipid management methods often including prescription medications such as statins or prescription strength niacin.
How do lipoproteins factor into my management plan?
Blood fats, including cholesterol, are transported through the blood stream by the lipoproteins HDL and LDL. HDL molecules are lean, being composed of primarily protein whereas LDL molecules are primarily fat. It just makes sense that finding ways to keep LDL low and HDL high would be one of the best ways to manage blood lipid levels.
Three helpful management tools for blood lipid levels
*Stay active: As the aging process takes hold and aches and pains become more severe it is easy to fall into a state of semi inactivity. But if you are really serious about lowering blood lipid levels and thus reducing your chances of atherosclerosis and heart disease then you must find creative ways around your maladies. Your doctor is one of the best resources you have to accomplish this. Examples he might suggest are pool aerobics, walking, or even something as simple as gardening.
*Watch your diet: Many blood fats such as triglycerides are very sensitive to diet. Be sure to eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables all the while keeping saturated fat and cholesterol to a minimum. One last important point is that some research suggests that increasing the consumption of polyunsaturated fat foods such as fish and avocados are essential to lowering triglyceride levels.
*Supplements can help: The latest research continues to support the idea that supplements can play a pivotal role in lowering blood fat levels. Three that have been getting a lot of press recently are vitamins B12 and B6, omega 3 rich fish oil, and of course safe and effective natural cholesterol reduction supplements.
R.D. Hawkins is an enthusiastic advocate of natural health and natural living with over 10 years
experience in the field.To learn more about cholesterol and blood fats along with safe and effective natural remedies for cholesterol visit lowered-cholesterol.com

Playing Poker Made Easy With Online Poker Games
Online poker started in the early 90's and has been very popular since. The game combines all the essential ingredients of entertainment: strategy and mental power, emotion and adrenaline when there is a lot at stake. No wonder this is a very popular game.
Online gambling is one of the most profitable businesses on the Internet
This is clear from global trends that indicate a greater interest of people in online gaming. The increased activity in online sports, online poker, online lottery and various online gaming sites is a clear testimony. The popularity of poker among gambling games is particularly visible in both versions of the game, both online and live. One possible reason for this may be the fact that poker, as a game of skill, also has an element of luck and thus becomes a really intriguing game for game lovers.
Growing interest of poker players
Poker operators around the world have noticed the growing interest of poker players and have therefore become more active to take advantage of this surging wave of demand. But as far as Malaysia is concerned, while the game has grown in popularity over the years, because of the government's restrictive gambling policies, there are not many possibilities for playing poker. The only place you can play poker is https://score88poker.bid/ Casino, which is the only legal casino in the country.
Although poker has been around for almost 200 years, the online version of the game is a recent phenomenon. Although online poker has developed in the mid-90s, it is only in recent years that this company has experienced a real boom. In addition to the ease with which online gambling can be wagered in the comfort of your own home, the other factors that have contributed to the popularity of online poker have been favorable regulations (although this has not been the case in the case of Malaysia) and the emergence of electronic money.
If you are a poker enthusiast and want to try online poker, you will first want to sign up for an authentic poker site. You can also use the help of several pokers training sites where you can get professional help to start your game. But if you're in Malaysia and want to play poker online, then you're out of luck. Unfortunately, online games are banned in Malaysia and the government does not issue licenses to open Internet betting sites in the country. But the good news is that gambling is not completely banned in the country and you can always try other forms of gambling such as lottery, casinos, slot machines or horse racing.

"We asked Screaming O to put together colorful mesh signage for the front door and front window of our new store and had it ready in time for our grand opening, which made it feel extra special," said Jorge Mendoza, owner of Los Angeles-based adult shop Amor Lingerie. "The bright pops of color and high-impact branding makes a strong impression before shoppers even enter the store and we loved working with Screaming O and their graphics department to create something that would look great from every angle."
Manuela Narvaez, store manager at Miami-based adult store Playthings, added, "We like to keep a bright and positive vibe in our store, from our signs and displays to the attitude of our staff. The front window images that Screaming O designed for us really fit with Playthings' look and feel we love how it perfectly shades the Miami sun without completely blacking out the windows. This is such a smart idea and we'd like to thank Screaming O for the opportunity to bring it into our shop."
The team behind Screaming O says they can also translate almost any language — with customer's help — to enhance window mesh graphic with an eye-catching slogan that falls in line with the store's message.
"Naughty But Nice has an especially colorful exterior, so we knew window mesh along our front windows would be a perfect fit," said Tye Constable, owner of Australian adult store Naughty But Nice. "Screaming O's art team has a real eye for this kind of stuff and chose some custom images that look perfect where they were installed and fit seamlessly into our store's color palette. I can't recommend this graphics service enough — it makes it even more valuable to do business with Screaming O."
For most effective results, Screaming O strongly recommends professional installation of all window decals to prevent damage, wrinkling or bubbling. Any exterior graphics can be made available laminated to ensure water-resistance.
"Our window mesh has to be one of the coolest graphics options we offer customers and it has been so fun to see how creative stores have been with their signage ideas," said Screaming O account executive Dan Holman. "Because the unique material allows light to shine through, many of our customers have had their entire front windows and entrance decaled with colorful graphics that attract a ton of attention. Essentially any glass surface can be given a makeover with our window mesh, and the bigger the surface area, the better the impact — something our customers have taken to heart."
To order, contact Screaming O's customer service, send photos and dimensions of the area(s) in and include creative concepts. Screaming O requires at least 30 days notice. For more information, contact Dan at email@example.com.

Automated production line is extremely efficient and well established supply chain and proper management have provided PTC with effectiveness. Introduction
In current days the dynamics of businesses are altogether changed. Organizations are adopting more and more automation and IT systems are inducted in the core activities of the businesses. Current era of powerful computing has brought efficiency, effectiveness and economy in the business processes. Operations are the transformation conducted to perform those steps necessary for the business activities. Standard raw material input to finished goods in the production is the ordinary production process is the transformation, and converting scattered information into well structured knowledge is also a transformation. Systems and operations management is the study of managing the operations and the advanced systems. Pakistan Tobacco Company (PTC) is a part of British American Tobacco. PTC was formed in 1947. Previously it was known as Imperial Tobacco Company which started its operation in 1905, making it Pakistan's first international Investment.

Value Chain
We are involved in all aspects of cigarette manufacturing, from crop to consumer PTC's value chain starts from converting raw tobacco into the consumable finished cigarette. But its operations extend from farming to distribution. PTC is largely involved in the farming process of tobacco in Pakistan. Because PTC believes that a superior quality tobacco will increase vale for the customers. PTC has two production factories in Pakistan One in Akora Khattak (AKF) and Second in Jhelum. Both of these factories are state of the art production facilities. And they are built closer to the tobacco farming areas of "Khyber Pakhtoon Khaw" To Analyse the Value Chain of PTC using the Porter's value chain analysis, Porter argues...

London: Victoria (and other airports)
Have you heard about London's new airports? No? Let me explain. Airports are characterised by an assault course of bullying and overpriced shops, a brutal clarity about where a humble pleb can and can't go, large areas of soulless grey grilles and glazing, silent but conspicuous security and the odd bit of nasty art. Temporary streams of unwilling and bewildered people lurk there, trapped, cajoled, anxious and unrelaxed, trying not to buy things they can't afford, eating things they don't really want to eat.
Victoria's new wind-blown boulevards are the latest manifestation of this airport-inspired 'place-making', preceded by More London's chiselled grey channels, Southwark Street's new over-puffed body builders and Embassy Quarter's sulky robots staring at an unfortunate courgette. Before we go further, I'm not averse to density or height – this is no simplistic rallying cry for the one-stop supremacy of the mid-rise street. It's just that yet again, the hinterland of a major London station has had its soul amputated, and its supine citizenry somehow did not see or sign a consent form.
Can I mention the visual clichés? The giant 'amusing' plant pots aka security bollards? The ranks of umbrella-ed tables lost in their 12 storey gorges? The splash of 'living wall' that says 'we care'? The over-egged and earnest public art? The blanket of overhead stagey lighting? The slow-paced men in high-vis? The obnoxious signage? The apartments 'starting at £2.25m'? My cynicism is tempered only by the generosity of pedestrianisation, a welcome new design habit in London's car-dominated urban realm.
Argent's painstaking work at King's Cross shows more sophistication (and is hugely helped by the spectacular existing fabric), but still, for me, suffers from 'inhospitable ground floor syndrome'. I simply do not hanker for the non-embrace of intimidating triple-height glass-fronted cafés, staffed by not-quite-busy-enough bow-tied and apronned lovelies, serving solitary screen-numbed tourists. No amount of distressed timber worktop, chalkboard signage or artisanal Scandinavian bread will entice me to use my entire body strength to prise open their oversized doors against the wind. (The entrance to Jamie's Italian and the huts of 'Christmas by the River' at More London show how incongruous single-storey timber accretions are needed to generate intimacy.) I don't believe that humans – even capitalist humans – want to be in these places, eating two course brunches at £21. It's not that commerce can never conjure delight: the issue is the impoverished ambition and civic meanness of today's real estate moguls, too busy serving the perceived needs of the jet-set to notice that their newly-minted 'airport terminals' are bereft of Londoners.
This stage-set city-making has troubled me before in Hamburg and in France, the latter experiencing its commercialisation on account of new high speed rail links transporting the business elite from one glazed megalith to the next. I am now seeing (through Design Review) an equivalent 'Crossrail effect' beginning to take hold in the UK. Developers are seeing the potential in every cowering station along the planned routes – not just the termini – for these cold expressions of hyper-density, dressed up as offers of public space and retail for the grateful urban commuter. Jane Jacobs prescribed mixed use, all day activity, tighter scale, finer grain, a sense of discovery, frequent turnings – in short, intimacy. Is this now impossible as an urban typology? Could someone please try it? I cannot wait for the Design Review where we see a proud developer present a complex labyrinth of alleyways and pocket spaces flanked by a close-packed huddle of mid-rise, variegated buildings. It might not only be viable, but incredibly popular.

Spy Shots: Lamborghini Cabrera Drops Some Cover and Shows Off its Sharp Lines
Let's take a little break from the auto show debuts for a second and focus on the latest spy shots of the upcoming Lamborghini Cabrera. Our spy shooters managed to catch the new Cabrera sitting in a parking lot. and as you can see, it has finally rid itself of that nasty black camouflage. Now all that obscures our view of it is that psychedelic camouflage, which does little to hide all the sexy details of this new Lambo.
We expect Lamborghini to reveal the new Cabrera at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, and it will offer some major updates when compared to the Gallardo — the model it will replace.
On top of being lighter than the Gallardo, it will also carry a revised V-10 engine that we expect to deliver around 600 horsepower.
Rumors suggest that it will sprint from 0 to 60 mph in about 3.2 seconds and will hit a top speed of 186 mph in its base version. More powerful variants will also come at a later date, pushing it past the 200 mph barrier.
Click past the jump to read more about the new Lamborghini Cabrera.
Spy shots
The prototype caught testing today dropped the black cladding that was hiding all of the intricate details, so it's now pretty easy to imagine what the Cabrera will look like. Its loss of the heavy camo is also a clear indication that the official debut is getting closer.
As you can see, hidden under the camouflage, are elements inspired by the Aventador and special editions, like the Sesto Elemento. The headlights are clearly inspired by the Aventador, while the front grille and the large air intakes feature a new design.
The back end is a little tougher to make out, but it looks like the taillights are similar to those on the Aventador, but the Cabrera's sports exhaust system has twin-pipes placed on each side of the rear bumper. Additionally, the back end seems flatter than the Aventador's rear

THE ARTS-BASED RESEARCH STUDIO ARTIST IN RESIDENCE POGRAM PRESENTS: Vocal Improvisation, Vulnerability & Play (with Karen Porrka & Maren Elliott)
This workshop will explore human interaction from both an intellectual and a phenomenological standpoint. It will begin with a brief artist talk by Maren Elliott on themes of vulnerability and human interaction as they relate to her body of work at the Arts-Based Research Studio, drawing on literature review as well as her own self-discovery through creative practice. It will then invite participants in to a guided series of vocal improvisation facilitated by Karen Porrka (director of the Vocal Improvisation Network of Edmonton). Through these two activities, the power of art production as a model of and reflection on vulnerability, play, and relationships in real life will be investigated.

The day was full of excitement. The children were back to their old selves again after not having spent time at my place for the past four weeks. Two weeks I spent traveling to be with their sister in Germany, one week I spent in Ireland visiting my friend, and another week I spent at home recovering from all the travel.
In an attempt to return to 'normal', I made polenta for us this morning as Enigma played in the background. Absent-mindedly, I somehow remembered the ratio to be 1:2 (as is the case with the 5-grain cereal I make) instead of 1:4. As a result, I ended up having to add more milk to the pot but the result was not as creamy as usual. Despite my mistake, the children ate every last bit of the polenta with maple syrup.
After breakfast, we headed out to Central Market for a few items for next week's lunches and tomorrow's brownies. Cinnamon was a bit impossible when it came to not letting her climb into the cart. 'Why does Sage get to sit there?' she bemoaned. She claimed she was tired and cold but had refused to wear socks. Instead, she put on her white summer sandals which looked a bit odd when paired with a black turtleneck, black leggings, and a puffy winter coat. My buttons she continued to push for most of the time we spent in the store. At one point, I pulled her off to the side of the baking supplies aisle and let her know we would leave the groceries in the cart and go home if she kept insisting on sitting in the cart.
Back in the minivan, I continued to play Nickelback songs via YouTube on my iPhone which played through the van speakers through the aux cable. Never would I have imagined anything such as this decades ago as I recalled having listened to songs on eight-track tapes as a child in our Oldsmobile. The children enjoyed the songs and tried to sing along. Cinnamon kept asking me the names of songs she liked which she wrote on a piece of paper as soon as we returned home.
Upon our return home, the children wanted to explore the area under the stairs which they call 'the magic door'. Sage especially was excited about the magic door. A moment later, I heard his cries of 'Mama, you lied!', followed by tears of frustration and disappointment. He truly believed there was a door on the inside where the wall would magically open up and take him to another place.
But Sage was no longer sad as he was yesterday. Instead, I heard 'I'm bored'. My boy is never bored. All but a handful of their toys reside at their father's home so the children are left with few choices at my home. Understandable and something I will remedy in time. I decided to give Sage the logging truck Lego set I purchased for him before my trip. With 228 pieces, I figured he would spend most of the weekend putting it together. In less than two hours, the logging truck was complete. Sage was most proud of his accomplishment, as was I.
Cinnamon also worked on her new Lego Friends set - Mia's Lemonade Stand. At 112 pieces, she completed the set in little time. For some reason she had several 'extra' pieces, but she did not seem to mind. The children were happy and busy which is what matters most.
Later in the evening I was finally able to speak with my friend via Skype after his return home from work. With the children playing together downstairs, I was free to speak with him without interruption. Initially, I had thought to introduce the kids to him on Skype tomorrow - on his day off - but that day came today when the children came upstairs to get some books from their bookshelf. They wandered over to me and looked on the screen of my iPad. At first, Sage thought I was talking to their papa. 'No. That's not Papa', I said. 'This is my friend.'
The introduction was casual, brief, and in a relaxed setting. The children were being children, jumping all over me in front of the screen. At one point, Sage's hard head met my nose with a loud smack. I heard a crackling sound in my nose before the blood appeared. I feared a broken nose, but thankfully it was not so bad. Sage and his sister returned to the room under the stairs and I called my friend back shortly thereafter. We both agreed this was a better way to meet the children rather than having a structured meeting which might be awkward for all. After all why delay the inevitable.

All sorts of people young and old all seem to work well together as we are all there for the same reason, To learn
I am currently trying to enroll to Charlotte Technical Center, however, their financial aid resources are very limited. My qualm with them is how they will not accept a student loan i already have. After months of being on the phone with my student loan from a previous school i was told to fill out a form and they'll use my remaining balance for my school of choice. When i asked the financial aid office about , what i thought was a solution to my financial aid problem, they refused and told me they do not take personal student loans. I feel they should expand their options so people like me can return to school and make a difference in their lives. We all deserve an education and when i have almost enough to pay for my schooling but can't use it, it makes it much more difficult. I am unable to apply for any federal loan or scholarship because of poor credit and a defaulted loan i was unaware of and i have spend 3 weeks straight applying for one scholarship after another. Without any financial aid or money i cannot even turn in my application to get noticed! i feel as though all my doors have shut and no one is giving me a chance to speak long enough for them to let me in. The tuition is low enough and for that i give an A but the process for someone like me with limited funds and resources i give a C.

RLL were at E3 2017 to catch up with our friends in the games industry, and from our conversations it's safe to say that most games companies are very much in experimentation mode when it comes to VR.
With the range of titles stretching from Doom VFR to The Inpatient to Moss there seemed to be a broad and exciting difference in how games companies were approaching the medium.
This augers well for those of us engaged in transporting the technology over into non-games usage as it expands the palette of possibilities available to us in both technical and creative terms...
VRFocus have a great summary of the highlights at E3, which you can find below:

Monday Morning Thread
Just wanted to say, I've got a week off.
This is good - http://www.collegehumor.com/video/6616758/photoshops-new-hover-hand-tool
What are you all up to today? Good weekend? I nearly got into a fight with a kid with braces, I would have gone to hell.
Did I mention Ive got the week off?
it was the george foreman's birthday
so i had a good weekend. went to an arts and crafts fair and bought baby sized boots for a to be released neice or nephew. i spent yesterday making cakes and cooking dinner, as well as finally getting to grips with the game OpenTTD, a Transport Tycoon open source clone.
Sounds a very twee weekend? Did you wear a cardigan?
Is transport tycoon like rollercoaster tycoon? I loved that game.
actually, no - grey hoodie and a berghaus water proof. it was pishing down heavily.
umm... well, transport tycoon was before rct, so it's similar but a little more in depth. if you like rct but fancy trying a transport game (if you can be arsed) Locomotion is the best. it was supposed to be transport tycoon 2 but the guy making it changed his mind half way through making it and turned it into RCT. And then made that.
Berghaus. Good, sensible choice
I'll check it out. I think Im going to be the kind of guy who has a model train set in his attic when Im older. I dont even like trains. I just like the idea of them going around a massive model world completely based on a real town that Ive spent my entire life making.
me and the gf were watching james mays toy storys with the one about the model train and it was really fun and she quite liked it. i mean... i think she sees my silly tainsport games as a bit of a folly, but i love making train routes and stuff. i am actually picking up a laptop this weekend just so i can play locomotion as it's kinda hard to get into openTTD as it's quite behind the times.
you can get fully featured train simulation games where you are the driver in a 3d version of train lines, like Railworks. i love them too.

yeah good weekend, thanks
friday night: pizza, wayne's world
saturday: picnic with mrs ccb and the little'un, then FENINO (see other thread)
sunday: feeling like utter death; pulling it together enough to attend a christening; unexpected barbecue lunch and lazing around in someone's garden; shouting at X Factor; went to bed shortly after 9.
Gossip about fenino? Did anyone try to instigate an all man orgy?
I dont know what xfactor is - Ive heard lots of people talking about it on facebook though. Can you talk me through the basic premise and why you were shouting?
i can't confirm or deny what happened at thewarn's flat when they all got back
shucks and kelly jofo are going to meet up some day for dinner and videogaming.
X Factor's just a singing competition. There is a really deranged woman on there called Kitty, who I can't believe they put through, until I remembered that it's all just contrived to generate the maximum about of speculation / water-cooler discussion. and then I felt stupid for having cared.
Shucks is obviously a playa. Did he talk about leisure suit larry? I bet he did.
Well this is a music board - Im not suprised you care about it - sounds like a great idea, Im suprised it hasnt generated more interest on these boards. Kitty?:
sadly she's just a bit of a nutjob with an average diva-ish voice
if she was the punk girl-group from the mid-90s we'd be okay.marilyninthesky this'd this
yesterday a lady in the car next to me at the traffic lights was digging my tunes (finley quaye)...then she jiggled a packet of Revels at me...i nodded, she threw one through my open car window! It was most unusual.
Great weekend though, rugby, Regents Park in the sun, Doombar evening, watched Dragonheart hungover yesterday (what a film!)then got fitted for some new climbing shoes by a lovely broad and watched UFC over at my buddies, lovely stuff.
The seduction tool of the cool kids. I always carry a load of them round with me. Just in case. Dragonheart - synopsis please.
Sean Connery plays a dragon.
What else do you need to know?Noblet this'd this
Did you know that Connery in French means is 'bullshit'?
(well it's spelt Connerie but it's pronounced the same)
Morning all
Back at work after my mighty 3 and a half week holiday. Bizarrely enough I have absolutely nothing to do, so my day will be spent pretending to work and sifting through the many emails I received when I was away. Was quite unnerved to receive an email from myself telling me to turn off my out of office thing.
Didn't do much this weekend, but didn't feel like I had to after my holiday. Went to a great sushi place that somehow remains open despite there never being anyone there.
One of the things I think about most
Is how takeaways and restuarants that Ive never seen anyone go in stay open. It literally makes no sense.
^this deserves its own thread
there's one down the road from us that sells (mainly) filled jacket potatoes. Only ever seen about two people in there in the four years i've been living near it. maybe a front for a drug dealer's premises or something?
Thats the conclusion Ive come to
Might start ringing crimestoppers with my findings
In Norwich
there's an establishment which is apparently a Jamaican food shop, an internet cafe, an actual cafe and a petshop ALL AT THE SAME TIME. It always has its blinds down and gives out a strong odour of weed. Seems above board.
I always find myself doing the mental arithmetic to see how much they'd need to make to break even
Try to work out how much they're paying everyone, how much they spend on food, electricity, rent etc. However I do it I can't ever imagine this place doing anything but making a massive loss, but they've been open for 7 years and the food is always excellent.
I end up feeling sorry for them on the way past
Its a curse
I normally choose my takeaways based on this
by going into the emptiest one I can find out of pity (plus they often give you freebies either out of gratefulness or to get rid of ingredients they have no chance of using). Salmonella probably beckons for the same reason :(
Good morning
I'm going to see the Meloncholia tonight, I hope its good. There's no milk at work, so I'm having bran flakes with some Onken on. Terrible business, I'd like to warn people off it. I hope that DiS isn't shit again this week. The only thing that saved it last week was the MJ FoX thread.
are you fucking kidding me?
onken still exists?
yeah, fat free.
Its nice, but mixed with Bran Flakes, it tastes like puke.
Sounds like a very Scandanavian breakfast
I have no idea if Bran Flakes are liked in Scandanavia or if Onkens from there though
Scandanavian is a language?
I never knew
All Bran <3 gonna eat it now
Onkens? wtf is that
It doesn't go :(
Fuck fuck fuck
Left work early so I could pick up a gizmo on the way home. Missed my bus by 30secs and now the shop will be shut before I get there. Might as well have stayed at work and finished what I was doing.
the fact that I don't have a name for it
and, indeed, am not even sure if it exists is the reason why I actually have to go into the shop.
Sounds like you need to speak to a specialist
in this particular field of 'gizmos'
Miraculously the next bus got me to the store 3 mins before the hour -- at which point I discovered that the store was open for a further half hour anyway.
And I've managed to Mcgyver what I need by purchasing 1 x male and 1 x female RCA gender changers.
Went to that Bodeans for the first time.
Absolutely. Sensational. As a striker you've got to be delighted with that kind of service.
I also went to Bodeans this weekend.
The pulled pork, sausage and chicken combo thing is too much for one man.
Wow. That's three of you then.
Pretty sure that el went as well...
I think I saw El there actually.
The devestatingly handsome chap with curly hair and glasses right?

Four, I went on Sunday evening
The g/f and I shred a platter. It was good.
I like the image of hunks of meat being slowly lowered into your mouths
and getting sprayed out of the other end all over your neighbouring diners.
I've heard nothing but good reports.
Just need to find someone who craves excess meat as much as i do. All my friends are borderline vegetarians, or meat minimalist as one of them calls it. pfffft.
I went with a vegetarian.
They enjoyed their vegetable burger, although I think I saw the staff pointing and laughing at them.
- marckee this'd this
Going this weekend
Looking forward to it
Someone took money out of my account.
I got the money back, but I had to have my cards cancelled and spend a lot of yesterday on hold to the bank.
Other than that, it was a good weekend. Went to Nestor's gig on Friday, and went to an architecture exhibition and played hockey on Saturday.
I'm going to try and get to Marissa Nadler's gig tomorrow and we're going to see Tyrannosaur on Thursday.
Come on!
Oh yeah, and I watched Merlin on Saturday.
Great to have it back. So much better than Channel4's Camelot guff.
What do you think of the gig?
I played a gig at the singer of slowcoaches house once and passed out. When they played with Shonen knife they had nowhere to stay and them and two friends stayed in my tiny one room flat. Was cramped.
Were you there?
I liked them. I think I preferred the support act, New Year's Evil, though, especially when they were like Guided By Voices, without voices.
Didnt make it, had planned to be
Ive never heard of new years evil - but if they sounded like guided by voices without vocals, that can only be a good thing
Odd weekend.
Friday, met with old journo buds, laughed so much it hurt swapping ridiculous anecdotes. Good times.
Saturday, headed to Cambridge for FENINO - lovely sunny day, great bunch o'lads, many ales, some good bands.
However, the father of the guy I was staying with had a heart attack and died on Saturday afternoon, so he and his wife dropped everything to fly back to Sweden where the family live. I had keys for their flat, but it felt massively odd being in there alone knowing what had happened (especially after the jaegerbombs of Fenino). After the worst's night sleep I can remember, I tidied the flat, cleared the fridge of perishables, did the washing up, switched off plugs and generally tried to be a responsible and helpful grown up. Don't know if I achieved it.
Sunday, came home, watched Doctor Who, slept. Think I'm starting a cold.
Oh shit, I watched Dr who the god complex last night, Ive got ot watch the last one
I enjoyed it more than any other episode until the FAITH bit. Absolute bollocks. Thats a massive downer. Hope it didnt ruin your weekend anyway!
Sounds like you might get a card thanking you for your consideration. Or an angry phonecall asking why you binned all of their cheese.
- ChintzyLacroix and colon_closed_bracket this'd this
And why all their fish are dead
cos someone turned off the filter. Good one h_y_g
*half a pint of milk and a chicken breast that was already a long way past edible.
I haven't spoken to either them, though I've swapped a few texts with Emma. It's so sad. I've met his dad a couple of times, at graduation and at their wedding last year. His speech basically had every man in the audience welling up - despite the fact it was done entirely in Portuguese (the family are Portuguese/Swedish).
I don't know whether I should tell our mutual friends or not - obviously it's something that they will share when they have the chance, but if I'm seeing my mates on Thursday I can't really not mention it. I don't want to send out a mass facebook message or anything though.
Not your place to tell anyone
That's how I feel.
But if I see my friends on Thursday and they still don't know and they ask me how my weekend was, I can't very well avoid it.
I have.
Do you speak Portuguese?
You're probably right, it's not really your place to say but it's almost inevitably going to come up. I wouldn't make a point of saying in advance but if it comes up it comes up.
I left my job yesterday and don't start my new one until thursday
So i'm going to spend the next few days in bed watching TV. YEAH.
Ive got a new job, its reporting on a person at the level of my current role. I get more money for reporting on the level of job Ive just been doing. Absolute insanity. This is why theres a global crisis
I'm going to basically be a caretaker
Congrats on your new job.
That sounds absolutely amazing
Well done!
hope not
my throat's a bit sore. very busy this week :(
Put brandy in your coffee
Works a treat
like I can afford brandy
Did just get offered a pretty reward for finding a purse and personally tracking down its owner. And I refused????!!!
- DarwinDude this'd this
got blind drunk on saturday with the help of old friends and new. Great times but i can't remember it. Ladyfriend couldn't wake me up to say good bye in the morning so just left. Tad embarrasing. Played football while hungover. Awful.
I'm dreading today and tomorrow.
it'll be ok.
up until wednesday it'll be hell but its time to kick ass.
- andyvine, ChintzyLacroix, and Verbal this'd this
I've got a sore throat and glass in my foot.
Linked at all?
In some way?
I've been...
eating my foot in my sleep?
Ive only seen you once
but your teeth did looked pretty glassy
The end.
I've had a sore throat since I saw you
and I stung the bottom of my foot on Saturday. WHAT A COINCIDENCE
Right foot?
We got back from three days on the Norfolk broads last night. I had to sleep on a shelf but it was still brilliant.
Two main highlights:
- A man smirking at us from a boat going along the other side of the river. When we went round him, we found out he was completely naked, just taking in the view.
- Whilst waiting at Acle station, some local teen whipped out his acoustic and started playing and singing Wonderwall. I've never seen my boyfriend so happy.
Today we are going to Westfield to do some shopping, have some dinner then going to meet some friends for drinks.
We've all had to sleep on a shelf at some point.
I dont think being on a boat allows you to be naked. Its not like because you're on water you become immune to social norms and etiquette.
I would argue
that by living on a boat, you're already outside of normal society so, you know, fuck tha police.
I walked some dogs on Saturday morning
It was okay.
- ChintzyLacroix this'd this
You realize that since you're replying to yourself
the 'your mum' in question is your mum?Royter-Hatfood, Songs_about_ducking, and ChintzyLacroix this'd this
I was going to make a joke about taking his mum and sister out for the day
but thought it was too much
What do you think of McClaren going?
and the whoile board? League 1 beckons, right?
the team is good enough to avoid relegation, it just depends who replaces McClaren. Not sure about this whole Doughty staying til the end of the year bollocks, if you're going to go then go.
As a Derby fan who watched the 1-2 demolition with 10 men
Im not sure you are good enough!
I am hoping I get offered a job interview today.
I applied to this job in August, finally got a reply two weeks ago - a reply asking what my salary expectations were. I told them, they said that was OK, "are you still interested in the position?" I said YES I AM PLEASE (but more professionally than that) and then... nothing. Sent a follow-up a couple days later and got an out-of-office reply saying this woman was on holiday until today. So, yeah. Fingers crossed for that.
Been temping since early July, helping on some project at this office, but even if I stretch it out loads I've got until the end of next week, tops, before I'm unemployed again. Wish other jobs I'd applied to would get back to me. Applied to a BBC job too which I'm vastly overqualified for but which would be kickass. Might hear about that too.
Waiting to hear back about jobs
is the worst. Good luck!
Some stories
If you live along the Piccadilly Line, you'll know who I mean when I say the tap dancing guy off the tube. He seems to have turned to God, since on Saturday he burst into the carriage and shouted "I DON'T CARE 'BOUT BLACK AND WHITE... EVERYBODY KNOWS IT'S GAWD!". He then tap danced down the aisle of the carriage, singing "everybody knows it's gawd, YOU know it's gawd [points], and YOU know it's gawd [points]" and so on. Then... some LADs noticed that he had a Rubik cube in his bag, so they convinced him to try and solve it in return for some money. He tap danced on the spot for about 5 minutes, singing his new hit "Everybody Knows It's God" and SOLVED IT. The LADs were howling with delight and handing him tenner after tenner. He must have made about £60 out of it.
Also, very early on Sunday morning
I heard a bloke making a fuss on the benches outside the hugh rise flats near my house. At first I thought he was just a bit crazy, but as I listened more, it turned out that he was having a painful break-up phone call. He clearly hadn't been to bed yet. He was so upset that he had managed to turn his voice into a very comical thing, both gruff and high-pitched. As I walked out of earshot, I heard him say "YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT ME ANYMORE, JANINE?!" He sounded like the cookie monster. :D / :'(
Hugh Rise-Flats
Thought this was about my brother until you got to Janine.
My dad said he rang home at 2.30am on Sunday in tears, walking the streets after breaking up with girlfriend. My dad had to keep him on the phone for half an hour as he tried to talk him into going back to his flat and to bed. He's always been a bit intense.
oh dear
breaking up is bad, breaking up in the early hours of the morning is badder
er what?
tell me more about this guy.
He's a black guy with a short afro hairdo
Who gets on the tube on the northern part of the Piccadilly line quite often. Usually he just stands in the area near the doors and does a bit of a shit tap dance thing, although it's not normal tap dancing, it's more like stomping out a beat on the floor. Sometimes he sings a couple of incomprehensible lines along with his stompy beat. But this time he was full on banging on about god and had dialled up the crazy a few notches. He's usually pretty good value and I quite like him being there.
Not like the guy on the FCC trains from Moorgate who goes on about how sorry he is and how he doesn't want to offend anyone. That shit is annoying...
he sounds pretty great.
have i just made up in my head that he looks like michael jackson?
more like randy jackson
with bigger hairmeths this'd this
I had a massive problem getting up this morning
I just couldn't get up, i ended up running to work in high heels
I'm still drunk
Saturday was the hottest day in October history
so I spent it at an all dayer in a room that holds about 80. Still recovering.
I went to Manchester on Friday night to the opening of my mate's new bar
I saw Kym Marsh fall down the grate of a drain and then caught her as she then proceeded to tumble down the stairs. (the cocktails in this place were good). She gave me a huge smooch. She's actually very pretty in real life but SO thin and too much makeup.
Stayed up and got the 5.25am train back to Lonodn. Went to a whisky tasting with the boyfriend. It was AMAZING. If anybody is interested, the guy is doing a groupon deal soon for a whisky and choclate pairing tasting night. DO it.
Saturday night met up with stealthy and we went off to aid and abet in getting verbal astonishingly cunted. Mission accomplished.
yesterday I lay about in the park wearnig a bikini and drinking champagne and wheat beer. IN OCTOBER. Global warming etc.
I don't really watch corrie
but I think she was there with Maria (?) and Carla (?) They were all very orange and super glamorous looking, and Maria (?) asked me where I got my blue shoes from. I'm not gonna lie, I was like ---> :DDD
my dad gave Kym Marsh singing lessons
when she was but a young teen mum still at high school.
Apologies for the foreign question
but who are these people?
stars of a Manchester soap opera
I use the term 'stars' loosely although to be fair, in Manchester these girls are absolute A list and up there with the likes of Rio etc in terms of celebrity status.
was great to see you guys, sorry for being so late!
and an astonishingly drunken mess, but i guess that comes with the territory.
It was fun!
And i got to talk about cheese with 'goo. Happy days! Other than that, it's all a bit blurry but I do remember your friends were charming and your new lady, yumyum.
thanks! glad everyone got on well
the last thing i remember was waving through the windows saying goodbye to you and rob frantically, i must have looked like a mentalist.xylopwn this'd this
Weekend was lovely.
Ran around Vicky park on Saturday morning, and then met up with a mate and his new lady friend - who is from New York, Japanese and works as a buyer for Macy's (in short she's a pretty cool chick)
We had lunch in Brick Lane, then mooched around East London for a bit. Sunday, did a bit of shopping in town and chilled the rest of the WARM afternoon.
Otherwise, this week looks good - but busy. Off to Amsterdam for a day trip on Thursday - gutted it can't be longer. Also, the girl who sits next to me is driving me nuts - she is the laziest person I have ever met and I just want to punch her.
The end.
I paddled in the river
saw bats, owls, cool bugs, had champagne whilst star spotting, had the first bath for ages, watched all of Spiral series 3, made apple crumble, saw a friend but conversely worried a lot about how I'll afford to eat in the next few months and other troubles so overall it was sad and lonely, but I did make friends with two shield bugs so that's something.
oh but I did find out that I'm getting to snoop about in this amazing builing
which has secret tunnels that lead to the pub for the old performers
Did the butchery course on Friday
Really good fun. Most of the time spent with the butcher telling us about bits of meat and getting us to have a go. Amazing slices of some of the best fillet steak I have ever had were then passed around. We then got round to preparing our own joints, which were double cote de bouef roasting joints. Everyone does there own and gets to take them home (me and the missus had 2 x £60 pieces of meat sitting in our fridge until yesterday when one of them was eaten). We then ate a huge piece of beef that had been cooking in the shop and smelt amazing, with homemade dauphinoise and salad. The plate was full of meat so many had left the potatoes, serous meat sweats on the go but some of the best roast beef I had eaten, and my Mum does a mean roast beef at Christmas. Washed down with red wine and for pudding bread and butter pudding.
So all in all well worth the money, good fun, the butchers are great guys and you get to eat most of the cost of the class in beef and take home a couple of roasters for yourselves.

Brief course description
Through the years I've constantly heard the same question from students: "I can follow a tutorial, but I don't feel confident enough to build apps/features from scratch". This course is my answer to that question. I'm not satisfied in simply teaching you how to build an application, my goal is to teach you to understand how to build professional web applications, not to simply follow a tutorial. This is the most comprehensive course I've ever put together and combines my 14+ years of development experience.
I took a completely different approach in building this course. This course is unique for a number of reasons:
So with all that being said, let's talk about everything that we're going to build throughout the guides. We're going to build a feature rich portfolio application that you can actually use for your own portfolio (I'm even using it for my own portfolio). Let's walk through the full feature set of what the application will include:

The Arlington County Fire Department has introduced a new, hand-held device to identify unknown solids and liquids in hazardous-materials situations. (Thermo Fisher Scientific) It may look like a portable video game straight out of the 1990s, but Arlington fire officials say it gives them a major leg up in confronting hazardous-materials situations.
Using federal grant funds, the county government has acquired a Gemini hand-held chemical-identification system. Designed by Thermo Fisher Scientific, the machine is designed to allow for quick identification of unknown solids and liquids by the military and first-responders.
