Barware Cleaning Brush

Comments about Barware Cleaning Brush:
This works well in tandem with the wine glass cleaning brush. I use the barware brush for all of my smaller glasses (from about 1.75" to 2.5" opening diameter) and the wine glass brush for my glasses with larger openings. You will need a narrower brush for champagne flutes and the like.

Four dramas were ordered by Fox for this fall season, and two of the shows come courtesy of J.J. Abrams, and Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci.
The two shows ordered by Fox are: Almost Human and Sleepy Hollow.
Star Trek into Darkness actor John Cho will be guest-starring in Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci's Sleepy Hollow pilot.
Sleepy Hollow will be a modern-day supernatural drama, in which Ichabod Crane finds himself transported to present-day Sleepy Hollow, where troubles await him.
More details have emerged regarding Sleepy Hollow, a modern-day supernatural drama from Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci.
In Sleepy Hollow, Ichabod Crane finds himself transported to present day Sleepy Hollow, where troubles await the time-traveler.
A new drama by Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci was one of the pilots picked up by Fox last night.
Sleepy Hollow, written by Kurtzman, Orci and Phil Iscove, is a "modern-day supernatural thriller" based on the Legend of Sleepy Hollow.
Although Locke & Key, produced by Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman, did not survive as a television series, a film trilogy is now in the works for the comic book adaptation.
In Locke & Key, the Locke family moves into Keyhouse, the Locke family mansion in Massachusetts, where the Locke children find supernatural keys that unlock doors in the house that transport them to different worlds and grant special powers.
Star Trek 2's Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci have a new project on their plate; this one based on a children's fantasy book series.
The duo will produce Dragonology, a series of books based on the idea that dragons really exist.
First published in the UK in 2003, followed by a US publication, the twelve-book Dragonology series is about a team of dragonologists, led by Ernest Drake, who "embark on a quest to avert a plot to use the world's remaining dragons to wipe out humanity."
Leonard Hartman will be executive producer on the project.
Don't make assumptions about Star Trek 2 based on the end of Star Trek XI, says Alex Kurtzman.
At the end of Star Trek XI, Kirk was in the captain's chair and the crew was all together, but that doesn't mean everything is hunky-dory.
Although some decisions made in Star Trek XI were apt to upset fans, Star Trek 2 Co-writer Alex Kurtzman believes that bold moves are what make for a great movie.
For Chris Pine though, it's the people, not the major action sequences, that make for a good movie.
Star Trek 2 Co-writer Alex Kurtzman explains what a sequel should do and also why there was a delay in making Star Trek 2.
According to Kurtzman, the reason for the delay was to make sure that the very best movie would be made, and that requires that it not be rushed.
The Science Channel has acquired the off-network syndication rights to Fringe, the science-fiction series created by J.J. Abrams, Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci.
The agreement grants the network rights to the current four seasons plus the fifth season, which is due to air on FOX this fall.
Star Trek XI's Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci have signed a new production deal with Universal Pictures.
The deal is a two-year, "first-look" production deal.
Star Trek 2 Co-writers Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci will be turning their talents to the sequel to The Amazing Spider-Man.
The Amazing Spider-Man will open this summer, and the sequel to it, The Amazing Spider-Man 2, will appear on movie screens in May of 2014.
Star Trek 2's Alex Kurtzman is full of praise for J.J. Abrams, Star Trek 2 and newcomer Benedict Cumberbatch.
Set to play a "mysterious villain," Cumberbatch is receiving high marks for his work thus far in Star Trek 2. "He's incredible," said Kurtzman. "What he does with language is incredible. His training is amazing and he's so magnetic. He holds the screen in any size frame. He really is a joy to watch."
Star Trek XI's Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci are in negotiations to move their K.O. Paper Products company.
Kurtzman and Orci's deal with DreamWorks is due to expire at the end of the year, and the split from DreamWorks is "said to be a friendly one."
Back in May, TrekToday reported that Roberto Orci was interested in helping to create a new animated Star Trek series, and this weekend, word comes that both he and Star Trek XI Co-writer/producer Alex Kurtzman are serious about doing so.
Appearing on the My Geek Time radio show, the two revealed that they are seriously investigating the possibility of making the animated Star Trek. "We have asked about [an animated Star Trek series]," said Orci. "We have asked what the rights are and who owns it and what are the possibilities. It is a very early – kind of 'is this a possibility?' and we are waiting to hear back. But we would love to do it."
"We just had the experience of doing Transformers: Prime on The Hub," said Kurtzman. "We learned a lot from that experience and it would be cool to do something like that from Trek."

Pizza Dough
- Prep Time : 3 hr 15 min min
- Ready Time : 3 min
- 1 1/2 cups warm water, 100 to 110 degrees F, plus extra if needed
- 1 (1/4 oz) packet active dry yeast
- 5 cups all-purpose flour, plus extra as needed
- 1 1/2 teaspoons fine sea salt
- olive oil, for drizzling
1 Put the water in a small bowl. Add the yeast and stir until dissolved.
2 In a large bowl, whisk the flour and salt together. Add the yeast mixture and stir until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add a little extra water, 1 tbsp at a time. If the dough is too sticky, add extra flour, 1 tbsp at a time.
3 Transfer the dough to a floured area. With floured hands, knead the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic, about 10 to 12 mins. Drizzle the inside of a clean bowl with olive oil. Put the dough in the bowl and cover loosely with plastic wrap.
4 Set the bowl in a warm, draft-free place, until the dough has doubled in size, about 2 hours.
5 Using a fist, deflate the dough in the center and cut it into 3 equal-sized pieces. Form the dough pieces into 3 balls and put into 3 oiled bowls. Cover each bowl loosely with plastic wrap and let rest for 1 hour. Remove the dough and wrap in plastic.
6 Refrigerate for up to 1 day.

About the Designer
Kathy Ireland
"I can't remember a time when design wasn't a major influence in my life. Nature is my greatest inspiration. I began sketching before learning math and reciting the alphabet. When I was about 8 years old, my mother designed halter dresses that we would bring to craft shows, and I was allowed the opportunity of designing handbags and jewelry to enhance the outfits. My first sale was very precious. Being compensated as a designer was and continues to be a delight. Whenever I experience something that our firm designed being worn or living in a client's home, the thrill never lessens. Modeling was never on my radar. I wanted to be the client! My fashion career exposed me to the globe and some of the most talented people in the world. Vera Wang was responsible for me working at Vogue; Scavullo photographed my Cosmopolitan cover, Herb Ritts, Bruce Weber, Avedon---all taught me so much. Fendi, Ralph Lauren and Calvin Klein were all companies that I worked for. My greatest mentors in life and fashion include my Mother, Barbara, who has exquisite taste, my Father, John who taught me the economics of fashion and economic realities of retail. It can be ugly, when people aren't honest... Jule Campbell from Sports Illustrated and Elizabeth Taylor continue to be true blessings in my life. Elizabeth took me by the hand and demanded that I express myself in a bolder, more powerful way. 'Beige is not the inner you. People will take you seriously even when you're designing something wonderful, feminine and sexy. You can also wear it!

Nice quality
Steve from Camas, WA – Verified Buyer
The desk is very heavy. Made with a dense high quality particle board. Top is finished with a thin wood veneer. Very nice. Black finish does scratch easily though. Pros: Solid, nice features. Cons: Expensive for something not made out of solid wood.

- August 2013
Grand Hotel Diana Majestic has an excellent location away from the highway. This is convenient for travelers who are looking for exploration aCôte d'Azur, and for those who prefer a beach vacation. Fresh air with beautiful views of the sea that is what we got on hotel territory. The access to the beach and restaurants in the hotel itself is very comfortable, the service is not intrusive and decent. Free parking is nearby. The food is very decent. The rooms are clean, the beds are really wide. read hotel review

The hotel situated in a great location, close to the beach. On the beach we had seating loungers. However, I recommend poolside loungers, they are much better. The pool is very nice, big and long. Breakfasts are just superb. The staff is friendly and responsive. The rooms are clean and virtually spotless. read hotel review

We stayed in the Grand Hotel Diana Majestic for a week. The hotel is far from the center of Diana Marina , 15 minutes walk along the polluted highway. But the location has its pluses. The sea is just about. The view is great. Rooms are clean. Staff in the hotel is friendly. It's a really comfortable place. read hotel review

We had a group end of may in this, actually very beautiful hotel. Sadly the prices were in the hotel bar so high, that it the majority of the guests preferred, after dinner, to her room to go, or other bars and food possibilities went to. A shame but very accessible! So was the hotel bar was usually empty. Maybe the hotel management should have other drinks thought, hence the very friendly bartender his skills can demonstrate. Aperol- sritz €1 3, - Cocktail €1 3, - read hotel review
Great family vacation

We can definitely recommend the hotel. We had a really beautiful holiday. However the arrival is with your own car recommended, it is a somewhat remote in a quieter area. And for excursions (Monaco about 90 kilometers away and marktausflüge, shopping) was the arrival with a car the better choice. The hotel is in immaculate condition. Room size was with our baby (large bed and buggies in the room) still absolutely sufficient. The room and bathroom was cleaned every day. The waiters in the dining room were great nice and all very suitable for children. Only the staff at the ... reception was somewhat unfriendly and always made a genervten impression! The food was very tasty and is something there for everyone. Menu changes were also no problem. Breakfast buffet every day always the same, however there is everything you need (different types of bread and rolls, sausage, cheese, jam and so on. Scrambled eggs, hard boiled eggs, fruit, yogurt, juices, various cakes and pastries, beverages after choice, different muesli. The hotel's own beach very well-kept and a nice beach vacation. The swimming pool was very well-kept and the water very clean. The smaller pool is heated and was during our travels very pleasant. The sea and the larger pool were unfortunately somewhat cold. During our stay were the other guests which the age 50 + only a few families with children. The area is very quiet and for a, party, not convenient. But for a relaxing family holiday, we this hotel absolutely recommend. We will definitely go back. But only again in the low season, we suspect that to the main season the beach and the dining room is very crowded! read hotel review

I didn't think what I was saying was that difficult to follow, but here
is what I said, again: "I'd speculate that some non-zero percentage of
prematurely deceased httpd instances owed to that...." I figure that
possibly (i.e., speculate that) some quite small number of such events
ultimately owe to uncorrected single-bit memory errors that are not
associated with actually bad RAM -- but, effectively, it's way down in
the noise of undiagnosable oddities.

If you assumed I was endorsing your figure, you assumed wrong. ;->
Ironically, the most recent RAM I purchased _was_ ECC, because it was
a gig for the Intel L440GX+ "Lancewood" motherboard in my old VA Linux
Systems model 2230 server. However, let's talk about the HP ProLiant
380 I was working on recently: 128 MB ECC Registered is $42 at SA
Technologies, Inc. (where I would buy such things by preference).
Without ECC, $32. ECC thus exacts a 31% premium in that case.
Now, would I pay that premium? I might, or I might put the money
somewhere else, where it's more likely to yield significant benefit.
(In 2007, I'd actually try not to drop cash on a 800MHz PIII that I
didn't dearly love, but five years ago might have been different.)
Anyhow, I see that you go on in the same vein at rather great length,
and I hope that my point was actually abundantly clear to most people,
which will have to suffice. So, I bid you adieu at this point.

They may look like any other microbe, but don't be fooled. The bacteria growing in a Californian laboratory are the first organisms to have an expanded genetic code. Instead of four letters, their genetic alphabet has six, thanks to two artificial letters.
"We have created the first organism that stores increased genetic information," says Floyd Romesberg of the Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla.
Life on Earth, from bacteria to humans, uses the same four "letters" or bases to build its DNA: A, T, C and G. But there are many alternative molecules. Romesberg previously built two artificial letters, d5SICS and dNaM, that work well with the natural enzymes that build DNA.
Now he has incorporated them into living E. coli bacteria. The cells naturally took them into their genome, making matching pairs that face each other on either side of the DNA double helix.
"It is astounding that it could work at all," says Aaron Leconte of Claremont McKenna College in California, who helped to design the new genetic letters but was not involved in the current project.
Factory microbes
Surprisingly, other than adding a transporter protein that carried the new genetic letters into the bacteria, the team did not have to modify the cells at all. "We did nothing to the DNA replication machinery," say Romesberg. That is unexpected because cells are good at correcting mistakes in their DNA. Somehow d5SICS and dNaM evaded these repair mechanisms – perhaps because they are so different from the natural versions that the machinery couldn't do anything to them.
At first, the extra letters were slipped into the bacteria far from working genes, to avoid disrupting their function. But Romesberg is now trying to put the letters into those genes, to coax the cells into producing unnatural proteins.
Nature only provides 20 amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. Romesberg's work makes it possible to incorporate an additional 152 artificial ones. That could lead to new materials like nanowires, which could help to make miniature versions of electrical components like batteries, and better drugs.
Ultimately, the idea is to build semi-synthetic cells that operate two separate genetic codes in parallel. The original genetic software would keep the cells alive, while a parallel synthetic or semi-synthetic genetic code would allow the cell to act as a micro-factory, producing useful materials.
Because they are alive, these microbial factories could harness the power of evolution to rapidly and automatically find the best material for a job. For instance, cells could produce thousands of variations on a successful antibiotic in a fraction of the time it would take traditional chemists.

Do you think wearing on-body cameras on duty should be mandatory?
The folks at SIG have done it again. Not content to have one of the classic designs in police autopistols in their "P-series" double-action models, they have rocked the boat by introducing their own 1911 platform.
Slim and trim, this new model rewrites the book on Ruger auto pistols.
The big secret is to listen to these veteran cops, believe most of it, and put it into action in your own life. What I learned from older cops saved my life on several occasions.
The Corner Shot is a combination of an articulating gun mount and a video camera sighting system that was developed by two former senior officers from elite units of the Israel Defense Forces.
There are tens of thousands of personally owned AR rifles sitting in patrol cars, purchased in good faith by officers tired of being undergunned, but unless that initial purchase is followed up with regular training, the situation might be best described as an accident waiting for a time to happen.
Lest we all get too caught up in a case of the "gotta-have-its," we elected to take a quick look at the need for change, and how it must be balanced with an agency's budget, real-world threats, and ability to train its officers.
This is an off-duty or concealed carry pistol, not a uniform duty gun.
Today's Taurus is ISO9000 rated for quality-control excellence and has become world renowned for making fine firearms.
The firearms innovator develops a low-cost, high-quality way for agencies to field short patrol rifles.
Whenever I handle a basic 1911 pistol, either an original commercial Colt from 1918 or a more modern gun, I'm quickly reminded of just why this elegantly simple gun has been the darling of so many millions of fighting men over the decades.
The rude awakening thrust into my face during that time (the late '90s) was the fact that the majority (and I mean virtually all) of the new recruits had never shot a revolver, much less seen one in anything other than a movie.
Looking like something you saw in the hands of those nasty gorillas in the "Planet of the Apes" movies, the Storm is a lightweight (5.75-pound) pistol-caliber carbine only 29.7 inches in length.
A solid hit with a .308 or .223 will, as Clint Smith is fond of saying, "Really change your channel."
The company's pistols are so well designed that its classic CZ 52 was a mainstay of the Czech military for 23 years.
If you like the elegant curves and "just-right" feel of that definitive fighting pistol, the Browning Hi-Power, you may be a little surprised by the look and feel of FN Herstal's new FNP9 duty pistol.
That constant search, that timeless endeavor by rangemasters everywhere for the "perfect" bullet goes on. But a perfect bullet doesn't exist, and it probably won't, unless somebody invents a "Star Trek" phaser.
There's an old adage among special units of the military and police (indeed, among anyone who relies upon equipment for their very lives) that "one of something is none, and two is one."
Flat, light, and powerful, Kahr's innovative autos are revolutionary--and perfect for "cop carry."
All steel and solid walnut, the Winchester Model 1907 .351 S.L. (for "Self Loader") autoloader and the Remington Model 8 in .35 Remington are, simply put, stunning examples of the gunmaker's craft.

Should Oil Companies Continue to Receive Government Subsidies?
Big oil gets big breaks — but should the billion-dollar industry benefit from taxpayer subsidies? Lou Dobbs pumps up the debate tonight at 8/11p on The O'Reilly Factor.
According to an article on FoxNews.com , in a speech on Thursday President Obama encouraged Congress to end $4 billion in tax subsidies to U.S. oil companies, saying he's not concerned about them during record-high gas prices and doubling down on his vow to focus on alternative energy.
"'I'm not worried about oil companies,' the president said in a Rose Garden speech. 'Wind and solar power … energy-efficient cars. That's the future.' However, a Senate vote on repealing the tax breaks failed about 30 minutes later. Congressional Republicans say ending the tax breaks will lead to higher fuel prices, raising costs on oil companies and affecting their spending on exploration.
Obama couldn't end the subsidies when Democrats controlled both chambers of Congress, before Republicans last year recaptured control of the House.
'Members of Congress have a choice to make,' Obama said Thursday. 'They can stand with big oil or they can stand with the American people.'"
Read the full transcript of President Obama's remarks here. Do you think oil companies should continue receiving subsidies from taxpayers? Weigh in below and tune in to The O'Reilly Factor tonight at 8/11p for more.

Drawing on cross-cultural and
Drawing on cross-cultural and interdisciplinary empirical research and numerous revealing case studies from their own therapy practices, the authors present a variety of innovative models for understanding and fostering relationships with clients that engender constructive change--and that can be used regardless of theoretical orientation, cultural background, or clinical setting. Pulling together the essential threads that weave the intricate fabric of the client-therapist relationship, they examine through first-hand accounts how the personal relationships, characteristics, and cultural biases of both the client and therapist affect their interactions during the therapy process, as well as influence relationships in their personal lives. They describe the conceptual building blocks of a healing encounter--including authentic engagement, projected images, and interactional patterns--and show how each of these can promote or impede a healthy and effective relationship. ...show less

- READ: Home schooling without God? Humanists find a way (RNS)
Fewer home-school families cite religion as their main motivation
WASHINGTON (RNS) When Jennifer Pedersen-Giles started to home-school her son Westen six years ago, it was because he needed a more hands-on environment than what public schools could offer. Now the eighth-grader studies writing, music, art, geometry, literature and world religions from his home in Arizona. Religion, in other words, had nothing to do with his mother's decision. She's not alone. According to the federally funded National Center for Education Statistics, the share of parents who cited "religious or moral instruction" as their primary motivation for home-schooling has dropped from 36 percent in 2007 to just 16 percent during the 2011-12 school year.

Successful or unsuccessful attempts at artificial insemination fertilization or in vitro fertilisation also influenced by season. In the spring season, the chances of conception greater than in other seasons.
Scientists have long known that birth rates naturally tend to increase in certain seasons. However, never known for sure what causes it, was limited to allegations that the temperature or the temperature affects the chances of conception.
Recently scientists revealed that a similar trend also occurred in the technology of artificial insemination and IVF. Chance of success in these methods also vary in each season in one year.
The team of researchers from Sao Paulo, Brazil, led by Dr. Daniela Braga revealed that after observing 1932 patients who underwent mating syringe. Each masign participants underwent the procedure on the season
vary in the same year.
When fertilization occurs, the opportunity to obtain embryos with the same excellent quality is not very different in each season. But for the occurrence of fertilization, it appears the difference in success rate is quite significant in some seasons.
Fertilization was recorded at most occur if done in the spring, which is 73.5 percent. Row below it is the fall by 69 percent, 68.7 percent of summer and winter 67.9 percent.
The researchers also noted increased production of the hormone 17-beta estradiol in the spring. Hormone is one form of estrogen, which is produced by women during their stay on the fertile age after puberty and before menopause.
"The success rate is higher in the spring of nearly 1.5-fold. This means if you have difficulties to fertilize, try to do at that season," said Dr. Braga as quoted by the ScienceDaily, Thursday (16/09/2010).
Alleged causes of these differences is a change in one neuron in the brain that produce gonadotrophin-releasing hormones (GnRH). These hormones regulate the release of estradiol, the highest observed in the spring.
Up to certain levels, increased production of estradiol is needed in the process of egg maturation. Estradiol levels are sufficient to make easier the egg to be fertilized.?

Public Meeting for Friendship Trail Bridge
Lindsey Kratochwill
WMNF Drive-Time News Wednesday | Listen to this entire show:
Tuesday evening, the first of two public hearings to discuss the course of action for the Friendship Trail Bridge was held at the Weedon Island Cultural Center.
The Hillsborough public works department recently managed an engineering analysis of the structure of the bridge, which was closed in December. The analysis of the damage to the bridge was offered at the meeting by Dave Thompson.
With the findings of this analysis, four different alternatives were presented for consideration. Alternatives 3 and 4 include demolishing the entire bridge, with alternative 3 including building fishing piers on each side. Alternative 2 includes demolishing the center of the bridge and repairing the ends as cat walks. Alternative 1 is to repair the entire structure and keep the bridge standing. Bob Kersteen of the Friendship Trail Bridge Corporation, noted the high support for alternative 1.
One funding option that best fits alternative 1 could come from a federal stimulus program. In order to qualify, the project would either have to cost more than 20 million dollars, or apply for a waiver. Brian Smith, a Pinellas County Staff official, described the possibilities for the federal Tiger Grant.
Ben Ritter is the local government relations director for the Paralyzed Veterans of America. He told the committee about the benefits the bridge has for the people he represents. He supports seeking the grant money.
Many who spoke, such as Doug Davidson of St. Petersburg, offered ideas to help the bridge become more profitable.
Joe Bates of Clearwater doesnât think that the bridge restoration is economically logical. He doesnât see it as something that would make enough money or jobs to deserve the grant.
However, former Pinellas County Commissioner Barbara Sheen Todd says that the Tiger Grant does fit the restoration of the Trail Bridge.
Alan Snel of the South West Florida Bicycle United Dealers, said the bridge is not only something for recreation, but also for greener transportation.
Beth Connor of St. Pete sees the range of people that enjoyed the bridge. This is something she strongly believes in, and would like to see the restoration of the bridge regardless of funding.
While nearly all who spoke supported the bridgeâs restoration, there was what Frank Miller, of the Friendship Trail Bridge Corporation, called the âGorilla in the room.â That is, the future of the bridge which is proposed to last for 10 years may still face demolition to build a new traffic bridge.
The next public meeting will be held tonight at 7 PM at the Jan Platt Library in Tampa. At the end of this meeting, the final recommendation will be made for the two County Commissions about which alternative should be further pursued.

I really hope that this is the last Farrah Abraham post ever on the Sex.com Blog.
For months, we've been jerked around by Vivid and TMZ to care about an MTV reality star making a porn movie simply because they called it a sex tape.
I was lucky enough to stream the Farrah Abraham sex video for free on Sex.com before it was taken down. As I've said before, it's nothing special. If she really did make 2 million dollars to have sex and anal sex with James Deen, I think Vivid made a poor investment because it is by no means fun or exciting to watch.
But that's just my opinion. If you haven't seen the uncensored photos from the sex tape (which is actually a professional porn movie) click here to see them.
Those photos will help you decide if it's a porn movie you'd like to see.
But I'm not here to talk about whether or not Farrah Abraham's sex video is any good or not. I'm here to talk about the fallout from the sex video.
After a few tearful interviews, denouncing James Deen for revealing that their movie wasn't a personal and private keepsake, and crashing the Vivid site because there was just too many people trying to download or stream the sex tape, what will Farrah Abraham do now? What is the fallout from filming this porn movie?
Well last Thursday, Farrah Abraham was spotted at a hookah lounge in Los Angeles with pornstar and glamor model Riley Jensen.
Hanging out with pornstars after filming a porn movie is usually signifies that you've been initiated into the pornstar club.
However, I'm reluctant to believe that Farrah Abraham is now a pornstar just because she was photographed with Riley Jensen sexily exhaling smoke into her mouth. That's because Riley Jensen doesn't do porn anymore. She retired in February to focus on more mainstream modelling.
A Riley Jensen-Farrah Abraham sex tape would be infinitely better than the one that currently exists because Riley Jensen is the hottest, but I wouldn't expect anything to happen specifically with Riley Jensen. Who knows though, maybe Farrah has been enticed by her night fame and now that her 15 minutes is almost up, she'll become a full pornstar as a means of maintaining her fame.
I really hope that this is the case, not because I think she's sexy or would make a particularly good pornstar, but the other possible fallout from her sex tape would be extremely troubling.
TMZ spotted Farrah Abraham buying pregnancy tests…Yeah…Pregnancy tests…
In the video, James Deen doesn't wear a condom and although he pulls out for the cumshot, the pull-out method is not very effective at preventing pregnancy. Farrah Abraham meanwhile was not on any birth control and James Deen is reportedly the only person she's had sex with in at least a year.
I don't know about you guys but the thought of Farrah Abraham getting pregnant is absolutely horrifying. First of all, the only reason anybody knows her was because she was on Teen Mom an MTV show that showcases irresponsible, sexually active teens who got pregnant. The fact that she didn't learn the importance of birth control and safe sex from her experience on the show is absolutely shocking. How dumb can a person get?
The second reason for why this is absolutely terrifying is that a person could be born as a result of this publicity stunt and cash grab by Vivid and TMZ. That's no way to bring a person into the world.
Hopefully this is just a sick joke planned by Vivid or TMZ to squeeze the very last ounce of life out of this story. Either way, I'm sick of hearing about and writing about Farrah Abraham and her fake sex tape.

The Adventure Designs tool kit was the first thing I bought for my 2012 GSA. (the second was their cylinder head guard bars) When u guys drop the "they're okay if you like tools made in China" I would challenge you that you would not be able to tell the deference from (pick any high $$ brand) in a blind tool test. i have done a far amount of wrenching, and find these tools of high quality, heavy feel and firm smooth action. I have used them for six months to install all of my many accessories and have never found something I could not address with them... everything I need. I would by them again in a heart-beat. They have an open house tomorrow,
(vendors, food, sales, and there will be tons of adv riders there..should be a good time) at their head quarters, and I'll ask the owners about the tool kit, and advise. Unless you're a pro mechanic, and really need another snap-on calendar, there is no need to look any further in my opinion. Very happy with their kit, but what is worth more to me, is the great advice and service I have and continue to receive from the two brothers who started this business in their garage. This company does not deserve your "shippin' jobs to China" wrath... i know them, have done tons of business with them...they just don't. Go there and see them for yourself. I'll be there tomorrow.. with both my ADV stickers and an Adventure Design sticker. Two groups I will continue to support.

[1]With U.S. unemployment still hovering at historic highs, it's good to remember that even little things can sometimes have an over-sized effect[2].
That is apparently the case with the Doritos Locos Taco, a creation of Yum Brands' (NYSE:YUM[3]) Taco Bell. The popular restaurant chain hired 15,000 new workers last year and company executives say the taco — based on the popular snack ships made by PepsiCo's (NYSE:PEP[4]) Frito Lay division — was mostly responsible for the payroll increase, ABC News notes.
Taco Bell introduced the Doritos Locos Taco[5] this time last year. Since its debut, the restaurant has sold 375 million of the tacos. Company executives hope to leverage the taco's popularity with Doritos-starved consumers to open 2,000 new restaurants over the next decade.
Not bad for a taco.
Taco Bell is expanding its lineup of Doritos Locos Tacos, adding a "Cool Ranch" flavored version[6].

This Oct. 2011 photo shows composer Marvin Hamlisch at Heinz Hall in downtown Pittsburgh. Hamlisch, a conductor and award-winning composer best known for the torch song "The Way We Were," died Monday, Aug. 6, 2012 in Los Angeles. He was 68. (AP Photo/Tribune-Reivew, Stephanie Strasburg)
NEW YORK: Marvin Hamlisch was blessed with perfect pitch and an infallible ear. "I heard sounds that other children didn't hear," he wrote in his autobiography.
He turned that skill into writing and arranging compulsively memorable songs that the world was unable to stop humming - from the mournful "The Way We Were" to the jaunty theme from "The Sting."
Hamlisch, who died Monday at 68 after a short illness, composed music for film heroes like James Bond, for powerful singers such as Liza Minnelli and Aretha Franklin, and for high-kicking dancers of the Tony-winning "A Chorus Line." To borrow one of his song titles, nobody did it better.
"I'm shocked by the loss of a great colleague, as is everyone in the theater and film business and every corner of the arts where song and score matter to people," said Alan Menken, the Tony Award-winning composer. "The fraternity of songwriters has lost a great friend."
Hamlisch collapsed and died in Los Angeles, his publicist Ken Sunshine said, citing the family. Other details were not released.
The New York-born Hamlisch composed more than 40 film scores, including "Sophie's Choice," ''Ordinary People," ''The Way We Were" and "Take the Money and Run." His latest work came for Steven Soderbergh's "The Informant!"
He became one of the most decorated artists in history, winning three Oscars, four Emmys, four Grammys, a Tony, a Pulitzer and three Golden Globes.
"There is some kind of gorgeous music in the heavens tonight," said Emmy-winning singer and actress Lucie Arnaz, the daughter of Desi Arnaz and Lucille Ball, who performed with Hamlisch for years.
Hamlisch received both a Tony and the Pulitzer for "A Chorus Line" - the second longest-running American show in Broadway history - and wrote the music for "The Goodbye Girl" and "Sweet Smell of Success."
Hamlisch also reached into the pop world, writing the No. 1 R&B hit "Break It to Me Gently" with Carole Bayer Sager for Franklin. He co-wrote "One Song," sung by Tevin Campbell and produced by Quincy Jones, and "I Don't Do Duets," sung by Patti LaBelle and Gladys Knight.
"He was classic and one of a kind," Franklin said Tuesday. "Who will ever forget 'The Way We Were'?"
Hamlisch won the 1974 Grammys for best new artist and song of the year for that ballad, performed by Barbra Streisand. "The Way We Were" - a big, sentimental movie ballad that became hugely successful in the rock era - exemplified his old-fashioned appeal.
His interest in music started early. At the age of 7, he entered the Juilliard School of Music, having stunned the admissions committee with his renditions of "Goodnight Irene" in any key they desired.
In his autobiography, "The Way I Was," Hamlisch admitted that he lived in fear of not meeting his father's expectations. "By the time Gershwin was your age, he was dead," the Viennese-born musician would tell his son. "And he'd written a concerto. Where's your concerto, Marvin?"
In his teens, he switched from piano recitals to songwriting. Show music held a special fascination. Hamlisch's first important job in the theater was as rehearsal pianist for the Broadway production of "Funny Girl" with Streisand in 1964. He graduated to other shows like "Fade Out-Fade In," ''Golden Rainbow" and "Henry, Sweet Henry," and other jobs like arranging dance and vocal music.
"Maybe I'm old-fashioned," he told The Associated Press in a 1986 interview. "But I remember the beauty and thrill of being moved by Broadway musicals - particularly the endings of shows. The end of 'West Side Story,' where audiences cried their eyes out. The last few chords of 'My Fair Lady.' Just great."
Although he was one of the youngest students ever at Juilliard, he never studied conducting. "I remember somebody told me, 'Earn while you learn,'" he told The AP in 1996.
He was versatile, creating musical themes for the Woody Allen comedy "Bananas" and the somber family drama "Ordinary People." His music electrified 007 in "The Spy Who Loved Me," especially the torch song "Nobody Does It Better," performed by Carly Simon.
Although known for his hits, Hamlisch had fallow periods, including two theatrical flops in the mid-1980s: "Jean Seberg" on the London stage and "Smile," loosely based on a 1978 movie about a small-time beauty pageant, on Broadway.
"Normally I can balance two or three things," he told The AP in 1991. "The problem is when you're out of work and don't have anything to balance. I think people assume you're always busy. You go through dry spells."
Hamlisch was working on a new musical, "Gotta Dance," at the time of his death and was scheduled to write the score for a new Soderbergh film on Liberace, "Behind the Candelabra," starring Michael Douglas and Matt Damon.
He is survived by his wife of 25 years, Terre, a television producer.

The 1957 Corvette Continued to Improve in Both Speed and Handling Departments
The 1957 Corvette saw little changes to the outside and really it didn't need any changes as the 1956 improvements were working just fine. What did change for the super car in 1957 however was yet again more speed and better handling. The biggest gain however came with the introduction of a new technology called fuel injection.
The 283 V-8 that Chevy was using at the time was fast becoming a very revered engine and while many of GM's competitors were fast making new and improved engines, the Chevy boys just kept figuring out new ways to pump more ponies out of what they had. This came by the way of what was to be known as fuel injection.
Back in the 50s there was little known or done with the technology of fuel injection, but as other name plates began to use the technology Chevy was forced to throw together a team of engineers to work on the new project. The results were trying at times but when Chevy got it right, they got it right in a big way.
The 1957 Corvette already had improved upon its horsepower output with a four barrel carburetor helping the 283 belch out 220 horsepower and this was improved upon even more with twin four barrel carburetors that saw the car get between 245 to 270 horsepower. But the biggest development for the year was that of the 'Ramjet' fuel injection system which gave the 283 cubic inch engine 283 horsepower. This 'fuelie' helped Chevy hit the coveted mark of one horsepower per cubic inch and they did not miss the opportunity to let everyone know about their achievement.
Also new to the 1967 Corvette was the new four-speed transmission which had been sought by enthusiasts since the car had first been brought to production. This new transmission was basically just the typical three-speed of the past with the reverse gear being moved to the tail shaft housing thus allowing the fourth forward gear to be added. This was complimented by Chevy's optional Positraction which helped drivers get the most out of their engines and gearboxes.
To combat the complaints of the poor handling and break deficiencies of the past models, Chevy answered the call by offering the RPO 684 package. This package included a heavy duty racing suspension, Positraction, a thicker anti-sway bar, a faster steering ratio, and ceramic-metallic brake linings that featured finned ventilated brake drums. Add this package to the Ramjet 283 fuelie and you had a car that was darn near ready to be driven off of the showroom floor and right on to the racetrack.
Finally it all seemed to be coming together at a rather rapid pace for Chevy. The 1957 Corvette proved that the car maker could not only be tops at the sports car game but also let the car maker flex its muscles just a bit in the technology game as well. Sales for the 1957 Corvette stayed steady and the car gained much acclaim from the critics and the enthusiast that seemed to be multiplying by the year.
