Can't decide where you would like to go for your honeymoon? Do you think you'd rather travel during a different time of year? Consider scheduling your trip a few weeks or even a few months later.
It may sound strange to some, but delayed honeymoons are becoming increasingly popular among newlyweds today for a myriad of reasons. Although it may sound like a complete drag to wait instead of rushing off to the airport the minute you're hitched with your knight in shining armor by your side, there are certain perks that come with the choice to delay your trip. In our modern world full of hectic distractions such as unreasonable demands on our time from employers and the like, we don't always have the choice to take off a week or two exactly when we'd like to—even if we plan ahead and request the time off beforehand. It's a sad reality, but not everyone has this luxury, not even for their own wedding. What is this world coming to?
On a brighter note, there are plenty of good reasons to consider postponing your honeymoon. In fact, the benefits aren't half bad. Everything is a matter of perspective, right? First, it helps to consider all of the "technical" reasons that can sway you to book your trip for a later date. There are certain times of the year that airfare, accommodations, or weather can all fluctuate depending on the locale. If you and your hunny have any budget restrictions, these are all valid things to consider. Waiting to fly to Bermuda at the end of the summer or in early spring can sometimes be significantly less expensive if you went say, smack in the middle of the summer.
Another reason for the trend in delayed honeymoons is responsibility. Directly after your wedding day, there may be no one in town long enough to drop your dog of at the kennel, or you may need someone to look after the house for certain dates but someone isn't available that week. Things can also come up at work, as hard as you may try to avoid it. In a world of ever- changing business transactions where your phone is attached to your hip and you are expected to be "on call", it can be easy to get tied down at any time. It may make you or your spouse feel better to get some things done at work first like a lingering project or a last minute assignment. This way it can be done and you can be worry free for the honeymoon, as you should be.
By booking a trip spontaneously, you will not only open yourself up to last minute travel deals but will also add a splash of excitement to your getaway. After the hectic wedding day, take a few days to run your errands and get everything situated. Update your wedding website with pictures and posts about your wedding. Guests love to see wedding websites updated as soon as possible. Then when you both feel ready to get away, call and book the next available flight to the destination of your dreams. It's your honeymoon. Being impulsive is allowed and even encouraged. It's you and your spouse's time to celebrate! While many things can be planned ahead and taken care of beforehand so you can be ready for your honeymoon, don't be afraid to try something different and move things around to suit your personality, budget, or your unexpected responsibilities.

While Tampa and Hillsborough County is thought of as an urban center along the north shore of Tampa Bay, it has a growing number of natural lands protecting drainages into the water supply of the region, including linear areas along the Hillsborough, Little Manatee, and Alafia Rivers, all of which have hiking trails. Special protection has been accorded upland areas, too, with more scrub habitats now under protection.

UPDATE: EA has since confirmed to GameSpot AU that Queensland's Courier Mail will be carrying the Spore promotion on Saturday August 30, 2008. The Spore Creature Creator will be sold with the newspaper for an extra A$2.
Anyone in Australia who plans on picking up the Daily Telegraph, Herald Sun, or Courier-Mail on Saturday will be in for a pleasant surprise. Included with The Saturday Daily Telegraph is a free copy of the full-version Spore Creature Creator, while Herald Sun and Courier-Mail readers will have to pay an additional A$2. Electronic Arts' local arm has teamed up with the east coast publications to distribute the full version software for the first time in Australia
The give-away is the first time the full-version will be available in Australia and is a one-time offer, only available with this Saturday's paper. The software was originally released last month and within 24 hours of its release, saw over 260,000 creatures uploaded to the game's online service--Sporepedia. The disc also comes with what an EA spokesperson has called an "AU$15 off per-order at EB [Games stores]", but refused to go into more detail.
The Spore Creature Creator allows players to create, customise, and design their life forms anyway they want. When it was first released in Australia, the Spore Creature Creator only contained 25 per cent of the full anatomy catalogue. Unlike other countries, where they could purchase the other 75 per cent online, that option was not available to Aussie bioengineers.
As this is the only way to get your hands on the full version of Spore Creature Creator, five Australian states are unfortunately missing out. People who live in the Northern Territory, Australian Capital Territory, Tasmania, South Australia and Western Australia will miss out unless their newsagent carries any of the mentioned publications. Until then they'll have to wait for Spore Creature Creator's release on September 4.

This course covers the entire photographic workflow in Apple Aperture, from import to enhancement to output. Author Derrick Story covers organizing image collections with star ratings, labels, and Smart Albums, and using the image editing tools to adjust exposure, retouch flaws, and correct color balance issues. And one of the most noteworthy features in Aperture is explored in detail: its ability to store video clips alongside the stills from digital cameras, then combine them to create stunning multimedia slideshows.
This course was updated on 10/03/12. Updated movies cover the features added through version 3.3, including Retina display support, iCloud photo sharing, streamlined integration with iPhoto, and much more.
Earlier I talked about the metadata overlays, which are very nice. How to turn them off and on, for instance, here in the browser view by hitting the Y key, or by switching the views because you have two of them that you can switch between by doing Shift+Y and that allows you to switch between them. So that's very handy, but you can also customize the information that's in these overlays. I want to show you that right now. So I'm going to go up to the View menu and I'm going to go down here to Metadata Display and go down to Customize. Here we go.
In our pop-up menu here, we have the Viewer and our two views are Basic and Expanded. Our Grid, the List View and then we have tooltips too, which is fun. I'm going to show you that also. So here we are in the Basic View for the Viewer. Let's say I just wanted to add a piece of information to this overlay. For instance, I wanted to add pixel size. So I just click Pixel Size right here. Now on the right-hand side, I can actually even move to where that is listed.
You can drag these around and control the display order. Then down here at the bottom, we can show the metadata below the image. Right now, we're just going to leave it where it is. So we've added Pixel Size. I'm going to click OK. Now we have Pixel Size in our Basic View. Very cool! I go to Shift+Y, and we've got the big thing. Then I go to Shift+Y again, and we're back to our Basic View. So this gives us a lot of control over what information is listed.
We can do the same thing of course for our thumbnail. So we'll go back to View, go to Metadata Display, go to Customize once again. This time we're going to work on the Grid Basic View. If I wanted to add a Pixel Size there, I can also do that. It's right there. We'll just leave it at the end. We'll not show metadata below the image. I'll click OK. Now we'll go back Grid View. I'm going to hit the V key to bring us back to the Grid View.
There is our information right there. You got, oh, don't really like that so much, not a problem. You go back to View, go back to Display, go back to Customize, make sure that you're in the right mode here, and then you turn that off. You click OK and it goes away, so pretty nice stuff. Now I want to show you another thing that I like, which is also the tooltips. So I'm going to turn off our Metadata Overlay. I'm going to hit the Y key, but now I'm going to hit the T key.
Now when I wave the mouse over the image, look at this. I get the tooltips. We can also control the information that's in this view. Now this is very handy. I don't leave it on all the time, but I do turn it on when I just want a quick snapshot of the metadata of the image, because you can use it in all the different modes. For instance, if I go into Thumbnail mode here, it also works there. So if I just want to see this different data that's associated with these, then I can do that by hitting the T key.
When I'm tired of it, I hit the T key again to make it go away. So I want to add a piece of information for my movies and we have one movie right here. We hit the T key and you notice that when I go over it, I don't have as much information obviously because there isn't as much information associated with the movie as there is a RAW file. However, the one thing I would like is the duration to show up here in this view. Let me hit the T key again to turn it off. I think I can do that.
So I'm going to go up to the View menu, I'm going to go to my Metadata Display. Wander on down to Customize. This time we're going to go to Metadata Tooltips. Now this is the stuff that's showing right now, but we have these different menus that we can expand. I want to go to Audio/Video. I want to show the Frames Per Second on my video. So I'm just going to click that box right there.
I'll go ahead and leave it at the bottom. I'm fine with that. Metadata ToolTips. I'm going to click Ok. Now I'm back in View here. I'm going to hit T to turn on the Metadata Tooltips. I'm going to go over here and look at that. Now I get my frame rate on that. So now, it doesn't affect the other shots right, because they don't really have a frame rate but on the movies and notice the badge here. Unless we know that it's a movie, then my frame rate will show. Now I'm going to hit the T key again to turn that off.
So you have a lot of control over your overlays, both when you're just working in regular Grid mode. When you're working in Viewer mode, you have two options for each of those. Then you have tooltips. Then you have List mode too. You control all of that by going up to View, down to Metadata Display and Customize, set it up the way that you want so that the information that you need is always right there when you need it.

JONESBORO, Ga. (AP) -- Police south of Atlanta are investigating a shootout that began after a family set up a meeting to sell an iPhone 5 with someone they met through Facebook.
WSB-TV reports that a mother, her son and his girlfriend arranged to meet a prospective buyer at a QuikTrip in Jonesboro.
Police said that while the son and his girlfriend were in the store early Monday morning, three men got into the mother's car and demanded the phone, money and her car keys at gunpoint.
When the woman's son approached, one of the suspects flashed a gun and tried to drive off. Police said the son fired 15 rounds at the men's black Dodge Charger. No one was injured.
Officers apprehended three suspects. Few details about them were immediately available.

A British television station is searching for the "ultimate Jewish mother" for a new series.
The four-part "Jewish Mum of the Year" series on Channel 4, which is being filmed in collaboration with The Jewish News of Britain, will air in the fall.
Contestants reportedly will be judged on their skills in cooking, homemaking, matchmaking, party planning and how well they know their children. The search reportedly will focus on large Jewish communities in Glasgow, Manchester, Leeds, Essex and London.
"The competition will seek out the traditional, the overbearing, the cheek-pinching and the charming," Channel 4 said in a statement, according to The Guardian. "The winner is out there somewhere in the land of the Jewish princess and the over-pampered bar mitzvah boys, and no streudel will be left unturned in this quest to find the perfect Jewish mum. It's a television show with a heart of gold."
Channel 4 has been criticized in the past for shows that stereotype, including "Big Fat Gypsy Wedding."

Lady Blazers Make History With 20th Win
The Ohio Christian University women's basketball team made history on Thursday when they defeated the #1 team in the ORCC (Ohio Regional Campus Conference) Ohio University-Eastern 79-75. The win was OCU's 20th of the season, which is a feat that no other team in the history of the women's basketball program has reached at Ohio Christian.
The Lady Blazers jumped out to an early lead and led 46-32 at half-time. But foul trouble plagued the Lady Blazers, and OU-Eastern was able to chip away at the lead and cut it to three points in the final minute. OCU had players in double figures. Senior All-American guard Brenda Carter led OCU with 20 points, while freshman guard Dannyel Butte added 14 points and had a team high 7 steals. Freshman guard Shelby Roe chipped in 14 points and dished out 4 assists. Junior forward Danielle Fleming added 13 points and a team high 12 rebounds. Junior forward Angela Thorne had another solid game with 11 rebounds, 4 assists, and 3 steals.
With the win, OCU (ranked #3 in the NCCAA National poll) advanced to 20-4, the best record in the history of the women's basketball program. Head Coach Mandy Wray said, "I'm very proud of what the girls have been able to accomplish so far this season. But we know that the season is far from over, and our goal is to get to the National Tournament. We will keep working hard and trying to improve, and hopefully we will still be playing in Philadelphia in March at the National Tournament."

What is required to network storage to storage?
by Hu Yoshida on Apr 6, 2007
I spoke at a SUN storage event in Burlington last week and had a chance to compare notes with Randy Chalfant, a CTO at SUN. Randy spends a lot of his time with customers analyzing storage requirements. He confirmed that utilization of storage for open systems today is only about 30% as I posted in my blog last week.
I remember having similar conversations about 10 years ago, when the utilization of capacities were at the same low levels. Back then, most open systems storage were direct attached to servers, creating islands of storage with average capacities in the 1 to 2 TB range. The game changing technology that occurred during that time was the Fibre Channel SAN fabric. In addition to faster FC transfer speeds and extended addressing capability, the SAN enabled multiple host servers to connect to multiple storage systems. IT shops set about acquiring, host bus adapters, switches, FC storage, rewiring their data centers, and installing HBA drivers and SAN management software, to realize the benefits that SAN promised.
SAN's delivered on the promise to network host servers to common storage systems, and for a while we saw the consolidation of storage frames from six or eight 1 and 2 TB frames to one 18 to 20 TB frame. In 2001 and 2002 we saw the rate of capacity growth slow down dramatically to between 25% to 35 %. Consolidation of storage appeared to be working and some shops claimed that they were at 80% utilization.
Now 10 years after the adoption of SAN we see capacity utilization of about 30% and compounded capacity growth rates of 60 to 100%. What happened?
The analysts at ESG, Tony Asaro and Steve Duplessie point out that while SANs network the servers to storage, the storage is not networked to storage. "Aside from being on the same network, individual storage systems do not, in any way, interact with each other. They do not work in concert, but rather separately: individually; discretely; and therefore inefficiently"
Virtualization of storage is intended to solve this problem, but not in the way that many vendors are approaching it.
Many vendors have taken the volume pooling approach. They have inserted a cluster of servers in the middle of the SAN on which they run volume management software to aggregate extents from external storage systems, and remap them into virtual volumes which they present to the host servers. The problem with this approach is that it inserts a layer of unnecessary complexity between the host and the storage and it lacks the data mobility for the storage to interact with each other. It is a static mapping across multiple storage systems and does not provide an interactive network of storage to storage. This will not address the problem of 20% to 30% utilization.
The reason I call this unnecessary complexity is that volume mapping is already being done in the control unit of the storage system. Compared to a cluster of two servers, each with 4GB of cache, a Hitachi USP control unit has 128 processors that access storage through a 256 GB global cache. With these resources The USP provides a large menu of storage services to support mirroring, replication, migration, copy on write, without disruption to the host applications. The USP provides data mobility, provisioning, and security services that enable the efficient networking of storage to storage. Simply by attaching other storage systems through its fibre channel ports (there are 192 physical ports, each of which can be virtualized to 1024 virtual ports) the storage services of the USP are extended to externally attached storage. This virtualization approach effectively networks the externally attached storage together.
In order to solve the storage utilization problem, the industry must implement storage virtualization. However, the storage virtualization solution must provide the data mobility that is required to network storage to storage.

I would like to suggest another reason for low utilization: To many containers. For example, in UNIX a typical server has many Volume Groups and each of those Volume Groups have many, many file systems.
Typically each File System will have room for at 30-50% Growth. Even though each file system could be very small – they all add up to a big number. I think was we need is some good White Papers to share with our DBA folks on how best to design these types of containers for maximum efficiency.
If anyone can post a link to papers on this subject -or anything on this subject – I would be much obliged!

Julia Roberts reunites with 'Mystic Pizza' cast on 'Good Morning America'Add to Favorites | Good Morning America
It was a momentous occasion as the cast of the movie "Mystic Pizza" reunited on "Good Morning America," nearly 25 years after the movie premiered. Julia Roberts joined her cast mates, Vincent D'Onofrio, Lili Taylor, Annabeth Gish, William R. Moses and Adam Storke to talk about their experiences making the movie, and share some of their secrets and favorite moments.
One of the revelations from the interview, done as part of EW's annual reunion issue, is that D'Onofrio was considering pulling out of the movie, until he had a table reading with the three female leads, with each impressing him enough to make him want to stay. "Miss Roberts here -- you just knew when she met Julia she was gonna be a huge star," he says. "There was no doubt in our minds, any of us. She was like a bomb waiting to go off. A big bomb!"
They also play the name game, where it's learned that Vincent was the most intense actor in the cast, and also the biggest drinker on the set. They all agree that Julia had the most fun, though. "I'm always happy," she says.

HSBC "lift" by Grey London
Agency: Grey London
Rating: 5.0
By Paul Frampton, campaignlive.co.uk, Thursday, 01 November 2012 08:00AM
Think about the last time you heard the word "data". Less than two minutes ago, I would gamble. After all, it is the new gold and, like gold, it is becoming an obsession for a lot of people.
However, I think this obsession is in danger of becoming a problem, as a lot of these people (clients, agencies and media owners alike) have not yet worked out how to use it effectively.
Everyone knows they need to use digital to harness data and there has been a fair amount of investment in technology and platforms and this is great. There is a wonderful opportunity for media agencies to stake a claim in the burgeoning cash-rich ad tech sector if handled properly.
But, in the gold rush, agencies have to be aware of the dangers. By putting too much emphasis on the platform or the process, you forget the critical bit - the human element.
At its core, data gives us a never-before-known ability to understand human behaviour and throw away the reliance on claimed behaviour from flawed surveys. But it is only effective if it is underpinned by a deep understanding of the audience and is connected with all media touchpoints. You first have to understand what the audience wants and where they want it.
The industry needs to differentiate strategy from tactics, and then from the platforms that enable these tactics. The platform is not the hero. Data needs to be seen as a strategic asset that drives value across the full marketing cycle - whether acquisition or retention. This is what advertisers are concerned with - not how do I use data to buy my media better, but how do I use data to make my digital business more efficient and more profitable?
Data also needs to be used to feed your ideas and make them meaningful - data is no good sitting unused in isolation of your planning teams. It may need to be translated, but it is pure gold in providing human understanding and informing where and when to compete. If you knew it was there, you wouldn't let gold sit deep underground without mining it; why allow the same thing to happen with the sources of today's insight?
As well as investing in technology, agencies also need to invest in the development of ideas from rich data insight. We have created an Ideas function that works closely with our strategists and insight directors to curate bigger, better cross-platform ideas. These ideas often arrive as the result of a deep digital insight that is then pushed back down through our business and brought to life through our cross-discipline experts.
Data may be the new gold, but remember that gold is dense and can weigh you down if you try to carry too much.

The most successful and profitable firms are those that know how to manage their customers' expectations, explains Paul Shrimpling.
client service
Steve Pipe offers a five step guide to hosting tax surgeries for clients' employees which could create increased fees.
Steve Pipe reveals how successful practices are improving client service, fees, profits and cashflow by adopting a new business model.
There are two ways to handle your clients, one of which will bring return trade and profits and the other won't. Paul Shrimpling explains the options.
The politicians are vying to be elected right now, but how you can make sure your clients continue to re-elect you as their financial leader in the years to come?
You may not have spoken to them for months, but it pays to re-establish contact with those fair-weather clients, argues Jack Downton.
You know those slimy salespeople who try to talk you into things you don't want to do? Don't be one of those if you want to get referrals, says Paul Shrimpling.
One Lincoln based practice is on target to more than double its turnover to £1m using a selection of innovative client-centric activities. Steve Pipe shares their bright ideas.
Peter Gill explains how practices can up their game and ensure they stand out from the competition.
Too many accountants pay lip service to client care without knowing what it entails in practice. Finola McManus explains why accountants need to stop talking and start doing.

Product Information
- The LEGO Movie Ice Cream Machine from LEGO
- Part of the The LEGO Movie brand
- We recommend this product for ages 8 and up
What It Is
The LEGO Movie: Ice Cream Machine from LEGO is a 344-piece building set from The LEGO Movie. The set builds the Flying Ice Cream Machine, a Micro Manager robot and three minifigures: Ice Cream Mike, Ice Cream Jo and Cardio Carrie.
The Flying Ice Cream Machine is a bright and colorful vehicle where everything has an ice-cream look to it. Even the two wing-mounted flick missiles look like popsicles. There are two control areas so both Ice Cream Mike and Ice Cream Jo can have their own stations and there's plenty of room in the open area for Cardio Carrie so she is safe from the attacking Micro Manager robot. The robot has moveable claw arms and three flick missiles that fire out of its body.
This set is a "2-in-1" set, which means the pieces can be used to build two different items. One set of instructions will build the Flying Ice Cream Machine but there is also another instruction booklet that builds an Ice Cream Van.
Is It Fun?
Kids who have seen the movie will get a kick out of building and playing with these new characters and vehicles. However, their bright, colorful pieces don't really require kids to have seen the movie.
Who It's For
This set is recommended for LEGO fans, ages 8 to 14. However, it is most likely to appeal to kids at the younger end of the age spectrum. Given the colors, themes and the characters, these sets are likely to appeal to both boys and girls, whether or not they've seen the movie.
What To Be Aware Of
The directions are excellent and most LEGO builders should be able to complete this set in about 35 minutes. The robot's flick missiles are a little tricky to fire at first so kids might need some practice with them.

YIELD: Makes 8 jalebis
To make the batter
Dissolve the yeast in 1 tablespoon of the water and let sit for just 10 minutes, and no longer. In a large bowl, combine the maida flour and Bengal gram flour. Add the yeast, melted ghee, sugar, lemon juice, yellow food coloring, and remaining 2/3 cup water and mix until there are no more lumps.
To fry the jalebis
Melt enough ghee in a heavy-bottomed pot to fill it 1 inch deep. Line plates with paper towels for draining the fried cakes. Pour the lime-saffron syrup into a saucepan over low heat, to keep it warm. Fit a pastry bag with a small writing tip, and pour the batter into the bag.
Squeeze 2-inch round whorls of batter into the hot ghee, working closely from the center out. Fry until golden brown on the bottom, then flip to fry on the other side until it's golden brown. Remove the jalebis from the oil and set on paper towels to drain. Transfer the hot cakes to the lime-saffron syrup and let soak for a minute or two.
To serve
Serve the jalebis warm in small bowls with syrup. Or you can remove the jalebis from the syrup and set on a rack to dry for 3 to 4 hours, until the syrup has formed a hard shell.
Indian Spice Jalebi Add 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom to the batter and 3 whole cloves to the syrup.

This sex blog (or porn blog, depending on who you ask) can be a bit of a boy's club. While it's fun, it's kind of boring. That's why I spoke with female porn blogger and friend EMJA from HotMoviesForHer.com to get the female perspective on porn for a change.
So please enjoy our chat about trends in porn, male pornstars, and how having a personality can make a pornstar.
Chico: Lately I've been noticing more bush and tan-lines in my HOTMOVIES. I'm somewhat ambivalent to these old trends coming back. As a woman, what do you think is in vogue for male pornstars?
Emja: First of all, I really hate boosh and lines. Like, hate. Cannot stand. In vogue for male pornstars? I honestly don't see a trend at all.
Chico: Woah, woah, woah. What don't you like about bush and tanlines?
Emja: Pubic hair is gross and smells bad and have you ever seen that movie Waiting?
Chico: I've never seen it but I know of it because like everyone else in the world, I'm a HUGE Ryan Reynolds fan. It also popularized the game where if someone sees your balls, you get to punch them.
Emja: Go to 1:21. You'll understand.
Chico: Yikes.
Emja: It's gross and that's all I think of every time dani daniels sends out a vine of "daily boosh". I can't even look at it. Wanna yak.
Chico: Do you ever worry that the steroid-monster look will return for male pornstars? Continue Reading

Country Cousins: 3 Books About Rural Living
By editor
Originally published on Wed December 12, 2012 9:31 am
As a small-town girl, I love depictions of rural living when they've got a little style and sass in their makeup. Replete with enough quirks and quaintness to choke a mule, small towns are timelessly fertile ground for writers. But the best authors ignore — or even play with — stereotypes to tell truly compelling stories.

Maynard Webb was a Florida football player heading for a career in criminal justice. But he taught himself how to program, saved eBay (EBAY) when it couldn't keep up with all the demand, and now finds himself happily giving back to the Epicenter of Innovation — the Silicon Valley Start-up Common (SVSC) — through his Webb Investment Network (WIN), a fund that offers "young entrepreneurs seed capital, mentorship, and on-demand access to experts."
Lloyd Carney, CEO of Xsigo introduced me to Webb after our August 22 interview – an example of the SVSC in action. As Carney told me, Webb "When I was at Bay Networks I interviewed Maynard for the CIO job which he got. He left when Nortel bought Bay. He next joined Gateway as CIO — later leaving there and returning to the Valley as eBay's CIO."
Carney believes that Webb has a great reputation thanks to his work at eBay. As Carney said, "If you mention his name [former eBay CEO] Meg [Whitman] will tell you, Webb is the guy who saved eBay. When he got there people's transactions weren't going through…the network was up and down all the time, there wasn't a reliable platform, there wasn't a secure platform and he solved all that."
Carney sees WIN as a great example of the SVSC since it gives accomplished Silicon Valley executives an opportunity to invest in promising entrepreneurs without paying Webb a fee. As Carney described it, WIN consists of "people like myself and other execs in the Valley who are successful and have investment money. [Webb] is doing angel investing but [unlike other angel networks that charge participants a 2% management fee] — he does it gratis."
Carney said of Webb, "He set it up. He is bearing all the costs. He is an angel investor and he exposes all these deals to quite a few of us who are investors who have also who invested in other VC funds."
Carney said of WIN, "It is easy to invest, you write a check, you sign a couple pieces of paper and you know you are invested in the company."
WIN works well for young entrepreneurs. As Carney suggested, "If you are a young person trying to develop a good idea – instead of shopping around to 10-12 different VCs — you go to [Webb] and his team and they vet the idea. If they think it's worthy they present it to a group of people who then invest."
As Webb explained to me in a September 13 interview, before finding his way to eBay, Webb was a security guard at IBM in Boca Raton. Along the way, Webb taught himself how to program and after he graduated from Florida Atlantic University, IBM transferred him to Minnesota where he developed a specialty as "a hacker that traveled around the country for IBM and broke systems."
Webb retired as eBay's chief operating officer in 2006 and became CEO of LiveOps, "a private company over a hundred million now" of which he is now chairman. As he said, "I stepped down last year 'cause I had promised my wife I wouldn't run companies anymore. It was important to maintain a work-life balance."
The SVSC has helped Webb in a very basic way — people he worked with in the past have helped him get new career opportunities. As he said, "The guy that hired me in Austin — [Webb was an IT manager at Thomas Conrad, a company there] — that had worked at IBM became the CEO in Austin of that company, and he was, like, 'I want you. I know you've never done that job, but I believe in you, and you're coming.'"

MANCHESTER, Iowa - Isaiah Sweet stood behind his grandfather with a baseball bat, contemplating hitting him, before shooting both his grandparents, according to a search warrant filed Friday in Delaware County District Court.
Isaiah Sweet, 17, of Manchester, told investigators he decided later to shoot his grandparents, Janet, 62, and Richard, 55, of Manchester, according to a search warrant. Family members, who had gone to the Sweets' home about 2 p.m. May 13, found a back window broken out and then found the bodies of Janet and Richard Sweet on a living room sofa. They each both had bullet wounds to the head, according to the warrant.
In the past, Manchester Police had been called to the Sweets for verbal and physical abuse involving Isaiah, Richard and Janet Sweet, according to the search warrant. No further details of the abuse were included in the warrant.
Isaiah Sweet was charged with first-degree murder last week after a short manhunt in Cedar Rapids. According to a criminal complaint, Isaiah Sweet told three witnesses he killed his grandparents. The last time Janet and Richard Sweet were thought to be alive was the evening of May 11. An autopsy report released last week revealed the couple died from gunshot wounds but police haven't indicated when they may have died and there was no information in the search warrant.
According to the search warrant, no weapon was found in the home by family members, but investigators found one spent rifle casing on the floor of the living room.
Isaiah Sweet, who lived with his grandparents, wasn't at the home when the family or the police arrived, according to the search warrant. A 2005 silver Chevrolet Avalanche pickup registered to Richard and Janet Sweet was also missing that day. It was found later that day in the possession of Isaiah Sweet about 2:40 p.m. in Iowa City.
Isaiah Sweet had been stopped by Iowa City police at a convenience store in the early morning hours of May 13 and was cited for driving with a suspended license. Police at that time didn't know about his grandparents death.
Kelli Fisher, 19, of Cedar Rapids, who met Isaiah Sweet for the first time May 12, told The Gazette last week he was driving his grandparents pickup without their consent. Isaiah Sweet gave Fisher and her three friends a ride to a party in Iowa City, she said.
According to the search warrant, Isaiah Sweet told investigators he was wearing sweatpants at the time of the shooting and had left them at the home. Police collected two pairs of sweatpants and a baseball bat from Isaiah's room.
Other items collected from other rooms in the house included a computer, three bags of bullet fragments, one bag of lead fragments, two bags of copper fragments, a Rolex watch, one prayer card, boxer shorts, a Nike T-shirt, Nike shoes, socks, jeans, two knives and brown leather pouch containing ammunition.

The number one rule I go by is to not study excessively and especially not before a big quiz or test. My reason being is because I don't like to cram study because when I cram study and finally go take the test I feel unready for it. My philosophy is that I would rather relax before a big test that way I can get the rest I need to take the tests and I feel better about it after I am done taking it.
Another thing is that I think it is just best to know all the information beforehand. Cram long before the test and quiz and review over the week before testing that way the one day before the test can be used for minimal studying and relaxing before the big day.
My second plan is to study before the test in the case that I couldn't find time to study at all. If I couldn't find time to study I would definitely make some time to cram in info. Though I don't like doing this sometimes the situation just doesn't allow time. I do the best as I can as a college student.
Some more things that also helps with studying is too have practice quizzes or tests which are always nice to have. Another thing is to have people you can study with because it's a way to review with each other.
Places that I really like to go study is Keller Hall right behind Lind Hall, MCAE in Appleby Hall, and I like Folwell Hall right on University Ave. These are the places that I enjoy going to the most because I find I can focus well in these places and I sometimes meet friends here so it is a win-win situation.
Back to study time!]]>
In the latest mid-term I took I got an okay score if it was an in class I would've not done as well as I did. I am thankful that it was a take home mid-term. So I need to study hard for this next mid-term because after that there is finals after thanksgiving break. I am quite amazed at how fast school is moving along it is already around half way through the semester and time is not slowing down for anyone.
I feel the need to just be more proactive about managing my life right now. I priorities that I need to straighten out. I am slightly falling behind in a few of my classes and I need to get back on track. This is the true account of what it is to be a first year student in college. There is no time to waste for education, sometimes you just have to pull through and be strong. It is as simple as that. This is my account on being a first year student in college. Find a rhythm and stick with it.

Johann Lombard has been a professional safari guide for 23 years, but he's never had an elephant do what it did while on a guided safari in Kruger National Park in South Africa. An unprovoked female elephant charged toward his group and then smashed into and flipped over the vehicle in what was called "an elephant encounter of a lifetime." Watch the exclusive footage provided by JukinVideo on YouTube:
At first, one elephant makes a charge and abruptly stops, along with a second elephant. A third elephant charges right past the other two and doesn't stop, despite Lombard's best efforts to "talk elephant."
Evidently, "no, no" and "come on, move!" and "easy, easy" and "hey, hey, hey" doesn't always work to stop charging elephants.

Re: Fighters that would have ripped through Mayweather's 43-0
Seriously, what is with people naming Roberto Duran?
He was 19 years old the last time he made 130 pounds. He left the division at 21-0. He had one notable opponent there, Ernesto Marcel who certainly is good/great, but for Marcel it was his first fight above featherweight, the fourth highest he would weigh in his career, and also before his peak. He fought no one else of any relevance. You think a he could keep weight without being drained at 130 for enough years to match Floyd's resume at that weight? Than to gradually move up at the pace Floyd did, not the pace that he did?
Even if you picked the supreme best version of him from each weight class, do you really think a 19 year old novice Duran would go through Genaro, Manfredy, Corrales, C. Hernandez, and Chavez undefeated? Highly doubtful, in my opinion. And that's just Mayweathers' run @ super feather.
That's no knock on Duran. I clearly view him as the much better ATG than Mayweather, that's not in question. More or less just showing the questionable nature of this thread.

Michael Niyitegeka is a lecturer at the School of Computing and Information Sciences at Makerere University and an adjunct lecturer at ESAMI Business School. He is also a sharp dresser who credits his wife for his style. He told Alon Mwesigwa more about style and grooming.
What is your take on how men have evolved in their approach to looking good?
Times have really changed. Looking [good] is also relative but the ideals of smartness have not changed. The dress etiquette for different occasions still holds irrespective of the generation. Fashions and styles change but the principles have remained the same.
Do you shop for yourself or does your wife shop for you?
We are both active in shopping for ourselves. If she finds something good, she will buy it for me. I procrastinate a lot when it comes to shopping for myself.
Are you a high-end shopper or do you go-down town too?
I am not an impulsive shopper. I really shop when I have to. If I travel somewhere and find a good shirt, I will buy it. I pay attention to good stuff; I have shirts from downtown and [have] no remorse about it. The truth, though, is I no longer go there as often as I used to.
Do you care about particular brands?
No, I am not that kind of person that when it's not Marks and Spencer or Gucci, I won't buy it. My rule of the thumb is if it is good and I really need it and within my means, I will go for it. I also love tailored trousers and suits for one simple reason - perfect fitting. I am very particular about that.
What has been your wife's contribution here?
She is my total make-over consultant. She pays attention to detail, occasion, venue and expected guests before she recommends something. And often, she is spot-on!
What are some of your add-ons?
I can't move out without my belt, wedding ring which makes me complete, my wrist watch and pen. It is a Parker pen; I learnt this from my dad.
Last word:
The most important thing is that men need to know themselves. Understand what makes you smart and be sensitive to the occasion. Exercise regularly; eat healthy food as clothes only complement a great body shape.

Novak Djokovic claimed a second Wimbledon title after coming out on top in an extraordinary battle of wills against seven-times winner Roger Federer, eventually triumphing 6-7(7) 6-4 7-6(4) 5-7 6-4 in a gripping encounter on Sunday.
The Serb, who has now won seven grand slam titles, denied Federer the opportunity to win a record eighth All England Club trophy but was pushed all the way by the Swiss who faced a match point in the fourth set before forcing a decider.
Djokovic eventually wrapped up the contest that will go down as one of the greatest Wimbledon finals in three hours and 56 minutes, falling to the ground in celebration before climbing to the players' box to greet his camp with an emotional embrace.
"I don't know how I managed to do it," said a teary Djokovic, who had lost his last three grand slam finals.
"I want to dedicate this win to a few people, first of all to my future wife and our future baby. I am going to become a father soon and I am still preparing for that.
"To my family and my team for sacrifice a lot of their lives to allow me to live the dream and to my first coach Jelena Gencic, who taught me everything about playing tennis and how to behave. Unfortunately she passed away last year but this is for her."
Federer was magnanimous in defeat and even slightly disbelieving of his own resolve having forced a decider after looking down and out at 5-2 down in the fourth set.
"It was a great final. I can't believe I made it to five, it wasn't looking good for a while," he said.
"Going into a match with Novak, you know it's going to be tough. I can only say congratulations to him. It was an amazing match and an amazing tournament. It's well-deserved."
The Djokovic serve had seemed impregnable in the early games of the match. He held three times for the loss of a single point, while he was also able to apply gentle pressure on his opponent with some stinging returns.
The Stefan Edberg effect on Federer's game seemed to be in evidence as the Swiss made frequent forays to the net, with limited success, but both players held their nerve to take it to the tiebreak.
Federer, chasing a record eighth title, raced into an early 3-0 lead but was then pegged back and saved two set points before coming out on 9-7 when Djokovic netted a backhand after 51 minutes of scintillating play.
If Djokovic was simmering with a sense of injustice at losing a set in which he lost only four points on his first serve, he hid it …continued »

EVERYONE wants to be famous. Scientists are lucky because they win their recognition in relatively meaningful ways primarily by publishing articles that are well received by their peers.
The downside is that all too often these papers are dismissed as being so standardised that they take little skill or effort (Forum, 25 June 1994, p49), or alternatively so arcane that they merit facetious comment (Forum, 10 December 1994, p46).
The truth is that writing papers is extremely hard work. As Derek de Solla Price, the American science historian, notes in his essay "Little science, big science and beyond" (Columbia University Press, 1986), out of every 165 scientists, 100 will only ever produce one paper. And only 10 will ever produce more that 10 papersthe critical mass necessary to gain a bit of academic gravitas.
So why is this? Most papers are based on experimental work, which requires experience and is ...

We have been most interested in your items on the Russian "ekranoplan" and the Japanese trains that operate on the same principle ( 25 March, p 14; and 11 March, p 11). We have been working on a further development of this idea for some time.
Briefly, we believe that, by extending the "wings" and adding further motive power, such a device could be persuaded to leave the ground altogether. This would enable it to move directly through the atmosphere to its destination, where it could alight on a suitably prepared area where its passengers could embark and disembark.
We propose to call this an "air-o-plane", or possibly "aer-o-plane", and if all goes well we shall have a prototype ready for testing by about 2003.

text: WASHINGTON (AP) â?? House Speaker John Boehner said Friday there has been no progress in negotiations to avert a â??fiscal cliffâ?ť combination of automatic tax increases and spending cuts in January and called on President Barack Obama to produce a new offer. Four days after House Republicans offered a plan to raise tax revenues and cut spending, Boehner told reporters that the White House has failed to outline its proposal and instead has pushed the nation closer to a fiscal cliff that economists warn could plunge the country into another recession. The two men also spoke privately by phone on Wednesday. Boehner described the conversation as pleasant â??but just more of the same.â?ť â??Since then, thereâ??s been no counteroffer from the White House,â?ť Boehner complained. â??Instead, reports indicate that the president has adopted a deliberate strategy to slow-walk our economy right to the edge of the fiscal cliff.â?ť Boehner singled out for criticism White House aides who have said Obama was willing to allow Bush-era tax cuts for everyone to expire on Jan. 1 and automatic, across-the-board spending cuts to kick in the next day. He called their comments â??reckless talk.â?ť Boehner repeated the long-standing Republican argument that raising tax rates would be detrimental to small businesses and â??is not going to help our economy and itâ??s not going to help those seeking work.â?ť Obama has insisted that any deal must include an increase in the tax rates for high earners. But Boehner declined an opportunity to take a hard line on tax rates, skirting a direct question on whether he might be willing to accept some increase in the top tax rate, currently set at 35 percent. â??There are a lot of things that are possible to put the revenue that the president seeks on the table. But none of itâ??s going to be possible if the president insists on his position â?? insists on â??my way or the highway,â?ťâ?? Boehner said when asked whether he might be able to accept a compromise top rate of 37 percent. â??Thatâ??s not the way to get to an agreement.â?ť The Republican leader pointed out that he had offered on Monday to raise tax revenues by $800 billion over the next decade by ending or reducing tax breaks, particularly on the wealthy. The Republican plan would cut spending by $1.4 trillion, including by trimming annual increases in Social Security payments and raising the eligibility age for Medicare from 65 to 67. â??When is he going to take a step toward us?â?ť Boehner asked of Obama. At the White House, officials used Fridayâ??s mixed jobs report, with its modest growth in hiring, as an argument to embrace Obamaâ??s plans to avoid the fiscal cliff with a package of rate hikes for the rich, public works spending and refinancing help for struggling homeowners. â??Most pressing, President Obama has proposed, and the Senate has passed, an extension of middle-class income tax cuts that would prevent the typical middle-class family from facing a $2,200 tax increase at the beginning of next year,â?ť said Alan Krueger, chairman of Obamaâ??s Council of Economic Advisers. Obama met at the White House on Friday with top House Democrat Nancy Pelosi, discussing a number of issues, including the fiscal cliff, a White House official said. Tax cuts enacted during President George W. Bushâ??s first term are scheduled to expire Dec. 31, automatically boosting tax rates to levels in place under President Bill Clinton. Obama wants those increases only to affect households with earnings of more than $250,000. Obama is insisting that rates for upper income taxpayers rise and also wants permanent authority to prevent Congress from blocking increases in the nationâ??s borrowing limit. The government is on track to hit its $16.4 trillion debt ceiling later this month, though the Treasury could extend the day of reckoning to February. Separately, Pelosi, D-Calif., called on GOP leaders to schedule a vote on Senate-passed legislation to hike the top two tax rates for individual income exceeding $200,000 and family income over $250,000. â??Why are you not bringing this to the floor?â?ť Pelosi said. â??Is this a forever, forever protection of the wealthiest people in the country at the expense of the middle class?â?ť

Anticipation grew as I sat in a darkened movie theater with my friend Yvonne Kaye, waiting for the film to begin. Ever since I saw the trailer a few months earlier, I knew it was a must-see. Inside Out is a brain and heart child of the creative geniuses at Disney Pixar. The movie has been hailed by clinicians who work with children as a primer into understanding the developing young mind. Having been a therapist for three decades and alive on the planet for five and a half, I am familiar with the importance of emotional fluidity. Does that mean I always give myself permission to experience all the feelz? Nope. I tend more toward glowing, rather than glowering.
The movie begins with the baby's eye view of her parents (Diane Lane and Kyle MacLachlan) gazing adoringly at their new born daughter Riley (Kaitlyn Dias), calling her their "little bundle of joy," and then takes the audience on a journey through the tiny tot's budding years as a happy go lucky kid with friends, fun, hockey and a close bond with mom and dad. We get to see what goes on behind the scenes in Riley's mind through the anthropomorphized emotions of Joy (Amy Poehler), Anger (Lewis Black), Disgust (Mindy Kaling), Fear (Bill Hader), and Sadness (Phyllis Smith). All seems to be going well in the life of Riley until her parents uproot her from her Minnesota home and trek cross country to San Francisco where a new job awaits her father. When they arrive, she is less than thrilled by the circumstances that await her; from the dingy apartment into which they move, to feeling like a fish out of water in her new school, to missing her BFF, to overhearing how her father's new job brings with it unexpected stressors. As a result, she is encouraged by her well meaning mother to maintain her happy persona.
Those in Riley-Central are busily working the controls, headed up by the predominating emotion of Joy. It is an exhausting job keeping Riley happy. She does her best to manage the other emotions; especially the literal and figuratively blue self deprecating Sadness who inadvertently touches Riley's memories and dims the previously bright light. These are symbolized by variously hued marbles that match the colors of the characters- red for anger, green for disgust, yellow for happiness, blue for sadness, purple for fear. Each time that happens, Joy attempts to jolly everyone into a more positive state so that Riley can maintain cheerfulness. It is when something goes awry as Joy and Sadness get accidently sucked out of the double entendre' named Headquarters, that for the rest of the film, they are on a mission to return and save Riley from falling into a pit of despair from which Joy fears she will never emerge. The other emotions are left to fend for themselves in their absence. Dark and light, loss and love, chaos and calm dance together, sometimes in precarious teeter tottering balance. An imaginary friend named Bing Bong, voiced by Richard Kind adds comic appeal as the wildly pink mish mosh critter who cries hard candy and rides a red wagon with broomstick engines fueled by singing a special song he and Riley created together helps to get Joy and Sadness back on track.
One of the most enjoyable aspects of the film was observing the ways in which each of the characters, from mom and dad, to Riley's teacher and the other kids with whom she interacted had all of their own emotions personified and interacted with each other in the same way that hers did. So as not to spoil the ending, I will leave the rest to your own vivid imagination.
As I watched the movie, I became acutely aware of my emotional landscape as well. In my life, I had let Joy run the show nearly all of the time, while shuttling aside the other less savory emotions, that frankly, I have sometimes held in contempt and with impatience. I repressed sadness in the service of not wanting to make anyone else feel it. I pushed back fear since I wanted to bravely take on the world. I barricaded the door behind which anger dwelled, because I had seen the destruction it wreaked in the world. I do my best to avoid stepping into anything literal or figurative that my son used to refer to as 'asgusting' when he was young. It has been when I have fully embraced myself in my entirety that I can safely arrive back home.
Inside Out is an insider's view of the emotional landscape through which we all traverse.

Today, everyone is busy and have lot of work to do. From morning 9 to evening 5 you have to work and then there are lot of commitments as well. Apart from that if you are running a business then forget about time at all because where it goes you will never know. A business gives birth to another business and it is actually well said. One such kind of example is a child care business. As we know that how much moms are busy today and why not they should be? Everyone wants to make their future secure and earn good reputation. This gives birth to child care business because corporate moms cannot afford wasting time sitting at home. They have lot of work to do but one cannot ignore their child as it is the best thing happened to them. If you are planning to opt for a child care business then I would say it is a good line of business where the growth and income is sure but it all depends on the service which you give because you are going to handle something which is everything for someone.
Now, you must be thinking that how to start a child care business. Initially if you are planning to do everything on your own then in that case it needs a huge investment to be made. Because for taking care of a child you have to take care of multiple things such as the location which is the most important thing because for a parent security of their child is the first concern, then comes the infrastructure.. After this quality plays a major role for which you have to be creative because keeping a child happy is the toughest job in the world and it is hundred percent true. Let us come to the main topic. There are various ways you can go for a child care business.
One we have already discussed which demands a huge investment or you can do the same on a small scale where you can start taking care of ten to fifteen kids on your own and gradually start growing your business. This is the most common way which initially people go for. But if you are doing it all alone then you have to take care of each and every single thing that is from food to taking care of hygiene and it can be anything because these are children and what is next you never know. It can make your day worst sometimes and can frustrate you. There is another way which generally beginners opt for and it is common in almost all line of businesses. Rather doing everything on your own you can hire a child care organization and can act as a middleman and trust me it is the best way to start your own child care business quickly. Because you will be acting as a consultant whose work will be arranging meeting between a parents with the organization which you have hired. In exchange you will get a good brokerage fee. By doing this gradually you will learn each and every aspect of the business and eventually can open your own. Patience is the key of everything and for this you have to be super patient. If you are going to hire someone to do so you have to be specific about the quality of service they are giving to their clients and that is how a business becomes successful.
For doing so, you have to take care of few things like promoting the business and a contact address where you can run your business. These days promoting a business is as simple as making a tea. Everything is online. You can get your business logo designed online and if we are looking for advertising our business, there are social networking website and many other online firms which help you do that. You can take help of a third party advertisement firm as well to do that but it will need more money. It depends on your budget. For office you should always select a location which is peaceful and cleanliness is the biggest factor which will be considered when you are talking about a child care business and that is what the business is all about, care.
Even if you give the best infrastructure and best price to your customers you have to be attentive and careful at all point of time because in front of you there is one of the toughest challenge and that is taking care of a child. Nothing is expected and the business never goes the way you think. It can be anything which you never thought of doing and you have to do that because it will affect your reputation if the child is not happy. It is very well said that making everyone sad is easy but making someone happy takes a lot and that is what it takes in this business. There is another way you can run your own well organized child care business from the beginning. Hire flyers, I mean to say hire people who can go to the door steps to take care of a child. This is the best practice I would suggest to follow if you are a beginner. And this doesn't takes lot of investment.
In the end I would like to give few tips for those who want to make their career in child care business. Use an out of box marketing strategy, add your business name in an online directory, distribute marketing items with your business name, spread your network and develop a referral process. If possible write a script for anyone who answers the enquiry calls. There are other techniques as well which people use for the growth of their business that is hosting an event like a gaming event or a fancy dress event. It can be anything which attracts parents. Here you have to keep in mind that you are not attracting kids, you are attracting parents toward your business so think as a parent does. All the best.
Do not forget about the compliance side of the business and make sure your company tax return Sydney is lodge by Accountants Sydney.
