This may cause howls of outrage given the misconception of the problem over Mcleish, but bear me out.
The longer this search goes on, the more I think we are going to see a shock. OGS was left field for sure but we have not seen Randy do it the easier way. Why do I say Chris Hughton ?
Well surely he is a shoe in for the West Brom job, a perfect fit and yet no approaches and tonight stories that they have approached 'The Tinkerman'. I am glad they have got him, is all I can say because it means he can not come to Villa Park as I stated in another piece. For this reason last Thursday just as I was hearing about OGS and laid money on I had a sneaky fiver on Hughton at 40-1 and just come in slightly to 33-1.
Daily we have seen managers who will not come here and for example Martinez being photographed with John Henry means another one is out, to add to Lambert, Rodgers and others. The list is getting shorter and shorter. Every time a name disappears the good ones become less and less.
So lets give you my reasons for Hughton
Excellent coach at Spurs
Liked by all the press and fans at the clubs he has been at
Managed real difficult characters and broken dressing rooms – Newcastle, Barton, Carroll etc
Successful with Newcastle
Has had players sold from underneath him
Picks up bargains and motivates other players
Good style of football, usually wingers and two up front
Fantastic jobs at previous club
Outside bet
The previous club is of course the major problem, if he had all the problems at Blues and yet managed say Cardiff to the same position he would be wanted by many fans.
Should it matter where he came from ? At VP there was never a chant about Mcleish's background but of all the other factors and records we know about him. Maybe we as fans would actually WANT him to succeed at villa to prove all the press WRONG ?
I know many people may call me all kinds of names for suggesting Hughton but of the options out there, those that would come to work under restrictions and gettable is there anyone better ? Looking at who is left, is Poyet better ? Are out of work managers better who can not get jobs, I wonder why ?
Brave brave step to do this, I think there is no chance of Randy doing this but I personally see Hughton as a much better option than many left.
Disclaimer : I have no ITK, in fact all that has totally dried up since OGS and any little bits of info is saying who we are NOT getting.

Comprehensive Ministry Training For Apostles, Prophets and the Fivefold Ministry
Find Out About Our Live Fivefold Ministry Training
Raising the Fivefold Ministry to a New Level
No matter what we do in life, we have to qualify first, and this often means doing some study. When you come to prepare for the ministry it is no different.
And just as most first degrees usually take about three years to complete, so also we see a similar pattern when Jesus trained His disciples.
He spent three years with them, giving them first hand training before He could send them out into the world to fulfill their calling.
Training is Our Mandate
The Lord began preparing us some years ago to train God's leaders. Now we stand as Apostolic Trainers, ready to both train and impart to each believer, what they need to carry out their calling.
The GBM Academy offers specialized training for each member of the Fivefold Ministry, and then extra training for those who are also called to be Fivefold Entrepreneurs.
You Could Study Live or Online
Now that we are settled again in our homeland of South Africa, we are able to offer both live training and online training.
So if you live in Southern Africa near the Johannesburg or Pretoria area, you could attend live training over weekends. But no matter where you are in the world, you can get a front seat via the internet.
The marvels of modern technology now allow us to do some wonderful things that we could not do before. The internet has opened up a wonderful world of opportunities.
Here Are Your Six Free Ministry Training Opportunities
A. The GBM Apostles School
Training for the highest ministry level of Apostle. Here you will be taken up a notch to not only understand, but also qualify for the Apostolic Office. You will learn how to become an Apostolic Minister as well as an Apostolic Entrepreneur. Join our Apostolic School in South Africa to be fully trained live, or online.
B. The GBM Prophets School
Here you will receive full training for Prophetic Ministry and the Prophetic Office. If you are called to be a Prophet, this school will provide everything that you need to fulfill your ministry calling. Join our Prophetic School in South Africa to be fully trained live, or online.
C. The GBM Teachers School
More than a school to teach you doctrine, this school is designed to equip you to fulfill a full teaching calling, at both ministry and office levels. Join our Teachers School in South Africa to be fully trained live, or online.
D. The GBM Pastors School
There is more to a Pastor than simply overseeing a local congregation. This school will equip you to be a true Pastor, operating the way God intends a shepherd to function. Join our Pastoral School in South Africa to be fully trained live, or online.
E. The GBM Evangelists School
This Evangelists School takes you beyond the basic task of soulwinning into functioning in the dynamic power of God that is a necessary part of the full evangelist. Join our Evangelistic School in South Africa to be fully trained live, or online.
F. The GBM Fivefold Business School
Not everyone called to the Fivefold has a Ministry Calling. God also raises up those who have a Business Calling. This school will show you how to fulfill your Fivefold Business Calling and how to carry out business God's way as part of your calling. Join our Fivefold Business School in South Africa to be fully trained live, or online.
How To Study Free
You will need to first become a free member of GBMI by completing a questionnaire that tells us enough about you to enable us to give you what suits you best. Once you login as a member, you may apply to be a student in any of our schools.
Although all lessons are given freely, you will be required to purchase the course textbooks or audio files for the course you study, from one of our bookshops at http://www.gbm-bookshop.com or http://www.gbmsa-bookshop.com . Then you can start studying the subjects needed to obtain a qualification from the Academy.
You may enroll in any of our schools and start studying on line. You will be given a study schedule to follow through and access to the first subject, once you have completed a ministry evaluation. This is to help us determine the best place for you to start.
Partners of GBMI
If you are a contributing partner of Global Business Ministries International, the cost of course materials will be waived and you may read any of the materials in any of our courses free. This could cost you as little as USD$25.00 or ZAR300.00 per month.
For more information on partners, check our partner website here: http://www.gbm-network.com/
If you are unable to afford the course textbooks or audio files, you may apply for a reduction in costs or a bursary for your studies with us. Each application will be assessed based on your circumstances, and we will assess both your circumstances and your suitability based on your evaluation results.
Choice of Study Curriculum
If we give you a bursary, we reserve the right to choose your course curriculum and study order. However, if you pay for the courses, either by purchasing a course or joining as a contributing partner of GBMI, you may choose your own curriculum.
Once you start a course you will get full access to the lecture materials and the first student project. Then as you complete each project, you will be given the next project to do. Once you have completed all the projects, you will be sent a certificate of completion of the course by email. You can print this out on your printer and have it as a certificate to display if you so wish.
As soon as you have completed a course, you will automatically be enrolled in the next course in the school curriculum to continue your studies. This will continue until you have completed the necesssary courses to qualify for a degree.
Becoming a GBM Academy Student will enable you to develop all of your skills in Ministry, Business and the Arts, and use them to make an impact on this world.
Limited Time Offer
Check it out here:http://www.gbm-bookshop.com/index.php?msource=currad
Degrees and Certificates Available
Each School contains different modules of study, which will qualify the successful student to receive certification and qualification at different levels.
BMin Degree - The Bachelor of Ministry
MMin Degree - The Master of Ministry
DMin Degree - The Doctor of Ministry
Please Note
No student will be permitted to take a higher degree course without having completed the lower level of study. So you must do the Bachelors course first before commencing the Masters course. The Doctoral course will only be offered to students who have completed the necessary courses to qualify.
Graduation and Certification
Those who complete the requirements for a degree will be invited to attend an official graduation ceremony (held at least once per year in Gauteng, South Africa).
Graduation gowns will be hired for the occasion and the leaders of GBMI and GBM Academy will be present to give personal ministry and direction to graduates.
If you are unable to attend graduation, you will be able to receive your Degree Certificate via mail. There will be a cost to cover printing, shipping and handling.
Accreditation and Affiliation
Global Business Ministries International is not subject to accreditation from worldly sources such as Government, and has set a standard which will be required by all who wish to become Branch Ministries or Affiliate Ministries of Global Business Ministries International, both in South Africa and abroad.
Anyone wishing to set up their own schools as a Branch of GBM Academy will be required to become a full member of Global Business Ministries International and comply with the requirements of membership as set forth in the constitution and bylaws of GBMI.
Those who wish to work alongside GBMI as Affiliate Ministries will need to apply for accreditation with GBM International and hold qualifications with GBM Academy. Their students will then be recognized by all churches operating under the banner of Global Business Ministries International.

Using Pro version. Trying to import a CSV made in excel, saved as .csv.
CSV import failed!
Header 12 should be 'infoopen', not 'infoopen 2'
The first marker is ID 2, so it looks like the first line after the header is not being deliminated. It's just adding it to the end of the header (infoopen 2)
This stops it from importing.
Any ideas how we can get this fixed so I can import locations.

I just installed the plugin, and it's not more than a sales counter to sell you a service.
It even goes beyond "the mechanic telling you to change stuff which is fine" (normal for virus-scanner software).
The buttons for "view what is different" on the fake scan results for a plugin marked as "DIFFERENT THAN THE VERSION IN REPOSITORY!" doesn't even take you anywhere.
I took the task to find the repository for the exact version (Akismet 2.2.7) and compared it myself with the version in my site, and THEY ARE IDENTICAL. Byte by byte.
Other features other than "SCAN AND LIE TO ME" or "UPGRADE" don't work either. It just takes you to a not found page.
My site IS infected with some spamming code, and this didn't even found it in my theme files.
Again, this is just a useless window to sell you something you might even not need, based on terror.

Hey everyone!
I got a project coming up that might need a little advanced form. Well basically its a contact form but you need to retrieve upcoming seminars from a database. In other words I need to get information about a seminar into the contact form, probably via into a checkbox list or dropdown.
It needs to be easy for the user, so he can easily create seminars and see the people who have signed up to be at the seminar(their contact info etc). Per seminar it might be up to 50-150 people signing up. So it needs to be presented in a good way.
I am unsure if a basic contact form plugin can do this, I might need to take a plugin and edit it. But I still wanted to ask if there is any good plugin able to do this? Or do I need to code it myself? If I do, do anyone of you guys have any tips for me?
Would totally appreciate it for any tips at all!

We, at Google Sponsored Ads have worked with thousands of MLM distributors all across Canada and the USA- however we do come across individual distributors such as Max International- Abidal Bassie Cripps from
10 Wooden Bridge
1-4167993969 who simply market the website for a month on Google and simply refuse to pay the outstanding arrears- after the service is provided. [continued below]....
We believe this is friendly fraud- the client has received the full benefits of the service, exposure on Google, alongside visits and clicks- yet after receiving all the benefits- is refusing to pay and has cut all communications with our company
We have tried to resolve issues, however we are finding it very hard to communicate with someone who is rejecting our emails and calls.
Distributors such as Max International- Abidal Bassie Cripps believe they are protected behind their brand Max International- and the truth of the fact is, they are simply violating their distributor agreement- our official compliant with the Compliance department is being investigated against the distributor- we really hope no other business falls into this situation with this individual/company.
We have contacted Max International- Abidal Bassie Cripps on several occasions and simply have had nothing but unprofessional responses/ and phones disconnected.
Google Sponsored Advertising is a monthly subscription, and Max International- Abidal Bassie Cripps is refusing to pay the outstanding arrears.

Vanes: I Will Not Sit Around and Wait For Saul Alvarez
Undefeated junior middleweight champion Vanes "The Nightmare" Martirosyan (30-0, 19KO's) is looking to secure a major fight this fall. The WBC's top rated junior middleweight had his sights set on a Mexican Independence Day show down with Mexican star Saul "Canelo" Alvarez but that might not come to fruition any time soon.
"Canelo and I would be a big fight at STAPLES Center. The place would be full of Mexican and Armenian fans. His style and my style go together perfectly and would give the fans the fight that they want to see," said Martirosyan.
Indications are that Alvarez will not face the Glendale, California, based fighter this year. With that news, Team Martirosyan is moving on and there are plenty of options in the loaded junior middleweight division. Martirosyan's manager Steve Feder indicated that Alvarez won't face Martirosyan until it is forced by the WBC.
"We can't keep wasting time on Alvarez. We thought we would get 'Canelo' in September but he won't fight us until he has to and even then he will try to find a way out. I don't blame him. If I was his manager I wouldn't want him to fight Vanes either," said Feder.
WBA champion Austin Trout, Miguel Cotto, IBF champion Cornelius "K9" Bundrage, WBO champion Sergiy Dzinziruk and Sergio Martinez are all on Martirosyan's wish list, "Vanes has a history with Austin Trout in the amateurs. We would like that fight. We know Cotto is already committed to fighting Margarito so that is out for now. 'K9', Sergiy and Sergio Martinez are all guys would we love to fight," Feder revealed.
Martinez recently said that the time has passed on facing Martirosyan and that the fight doesn't make sense anymore. Martirosyan finds it funny that Martinez would make that staement and and then agree to fight Darren Barker who is unknown in the United States, "How can Sergio say it doesn't make sense to fight me but he will fight Barker who no one knows in the United States?"
Martirosyan climbed off the canvas on June 4th to score and exciting 7th round knockout over Saul Roman at STAPLES Center. The fighter of Armenian descent gave the type of performance that television executives are looking for. Look for the 2004 Olympian in the ring soon.
"I only want to fight the best fighters out there and I am willing to put my 30-0 record on the line. Hopefully one of these champs will step up and fight me," said Martirosyan.
Feder closed by saying, "Top Rank has Vanes very high on their list and I've been ensured that a date and an opponent will be confirmed very soon."

Scary Pokemon Stories!
View Single Post
September 14th, 2012 (1:40 PM).
Join Date:
Sep 2012
Okay. I actually do a lot of Pokemon Creepypasta reading, and so maybe my mind is just trying to make something really pretty normal into a scary experience, but I'll let you guys be the judge. Here are two creepy Pokemon experiences of mine:
1. Lavender Town
So, I've read quite a few Pastas about Lavender Town, and I finally decided to listen to the song. Finding a legitimate-looking video on Youtube, I turned the volume of the computer to a reasonable level, and began to listen.
Almost immediately after the video started, I started to feel a bit worried and anxious. The feeling only increased as the video went on, and, by 1:30, it had developed into a splitting headache and my ears and sinuses hurt something terrible.
Not being able to take it anymore, I shut the window. The headache, along with the pain in my ears and sinuses, went away in less than a minute.
2. Smokescreen
(This one is really and truly creepy, at least in my opinion.)
I was playing Pokemon Soulsilver, and I had just beaten the Elite Four. I had my favorite Pokemon, my beloved female Ninetales named Vixen, at the head of my team.
I was wandering around Victory Road, looking for some reasonably strong Pokemon that I could beat, as I wanted to level up my Ninetales some more.
All at once, I was attacked by a Pokemon. I can't remember what it was, because this was quite some time ago, but I remember it was just as strong as I had hoped it would be.
Entering battle, I selected my move. As I always start with a move that will put the foe at a disadvantage, I selected Smokescreen, aiming to lower my assailant's accuracy.
But just as the smoke attack landed itself on my foe, the game froze. But that wasn't what surprised me, because it is an old DS, and, although I didn't have any cheats activated at the time, I did have my brother's Action Replay in, and it is prone to making the game freeze up.
But no.
What was terrifying was that at the exact moment my game froze, every single smoke detector in the entire house simultaneously went off. I nearly fainted with shock, I'm not exaggerating.
Later, when we had shut all the blaring devices off, we had a man come in to examine them. He could find nothing wrong with them. They weren't late for a checkup, the batteries were fine, all the wiring was undamaged, and there had been no smoke in the house during the anomaly.
None of us could figure out what happened.
I never told anyone about my game.

Bridge to a Thousand Possibilities
One of my favorite things about Vancouver is the Lions Gate bridge, the three-lane thoroughfare that links the downtown core to that nature lover's paradise known to locals as the "North Shore."
It's no Golden Gate, but the Lions Gate Bridge has a beauty of its own. With the majestic stone lions framing the northbound entry to the bridge, a trip across it—either on foot, by bike or in a car—rewards you with spectacular views of the North Shore mountains (world famous for downhill mountain bike trails), Burrard Inlet (where Alaskan cruise ships and cargo tankers float by), and the neighboring Gulf Islands (a year-round playground for boaters and fishermen).
The bridge is adjacent to the dense forest trails of the 1,000-acre Stanley Park, and hangs above the more than five-mile swath of the park's seawall, a winding paved path that was made for Sunday strolling.

Connie Rule (WRDW-TV)
AIKEN, S.C. (WRDW) -- It's a beautiful sunny afternoon in Aiken. Crowds line the streets as the Memorial Day Parade rolls on down the road, but celebrating the holiday isn't the only thing bringing people out. Connie's Framing, a local business, is also attracting people with drinks and snacks.
"We have popcorn and lemonade -- donations are to benefit the Oklahoma tornado victims," said Connie Rule.
Rule has lived in Aiken for 47 years but says she will never forget her home state of Oklahoma.
"I love it. I love the people, I love the climate -- love the atmosphere," she said.
Rule loves it so much that she visits once a year. Her family and friends in Oklahoma are safe after the F-5 tornado ripped through the city. However, despite the long distance, she still wanted to send help from Aiken -- no matter how big or small.
"We are also collecting money and selling bracelets -- all for the victims of the tornado," Rule said.
Money isn't the only thing Connie's Framing is taking up. They also taking up blankets, soaps, shampoos and conditioners -- anything that will help the folks in Oklahoma.
Rule says people in Aiken have been very supportive and says even though Aiken is far from Oklahoma, the community is very similar.
"It's like here. It's a small town -- everybody knows everybody. I can go out there and people know me -- I can be on our farm less than 15 minutes and people are driving up saying, 'Hey how have you been?'" Rule said.
She says the one thing that's different right now for folks in Oklahoma is they need help.
"They need everything, so if anyone is willing donate, we will make sure it gets out there to them," she said.
Rule says she will keep on collecting donations as long as she keeps hearing about the needs of the people of Oklahoma.
Here is her contact information:

Desks In the Bedroom
Lots of designer bedrooms include desks, but they are usually used (or at least styled for photos) as vanities or accent furniture. It is very rare that one sees an actual real-life workspace in a bedroom when flipping through a shelter magazine. In fact, most of the shots I found for this roundup were kids' rooms that included a space for doing homework.
I've had trouble making the home office work in my own room (image 5). I suffered through about a year of back pain before finally giving in and replacing my lovely little dining chair with a "sensible" (read: ugly) desk chair. Aesthetically, I kept everything very simple — all solid white and blue, other than my parents' old Persian rug — to counterbalance the inevitable chaos of papers and books. But try as I might, this is as neat as it ever gets. Plus, though I get to look out the window onto a peaceful courtyard and a patch of blue sky, my setup blocks access to the window, and probably also blocks about 30% of the sunlight that could come in …
If you are like me and have a workspace in the bedroom, how do you make it work?

Marvel taps Jon Bernthal as the Punisher in 'Daredevil' series
It has been revealed that Jon Bernthal, perhaps best known for his role as Shane on The Walking Dead, will be playing the Punisher in the Netflix original series "Marvel's Daredevil". He will be arriving in the show's second season, joining Charlie Cox who plays Hell's Kitchen's blind hero. There aren't too many details on how extensively he will play into the show, but his role in the series is described as a big one, and so it is likely we'll be seeing a lot of him next season and beyond.

GOSHEN — A New York City police officer was arraigned Wednesday in Orange County Court on charges he engaged in inappropriate sexual contact with a 16-year-old boy.
A lawyer for Rosandre Burgher, 27, of the Town of Wallkill, entered a "not guilty" plea on his behalf.
Burgher has been indicted on three counts of third-degree criminal sexual act, a felony; and one count of endangering the welfare of a child, a misdemeanor. Burgher has been free on $35,000 bond since shortly after his June 19 arrest. The NYPD suspended him pending a Civil Service hearing.
Burgher is charged with subjecting the 16-year-old to sexual contact on multiple occasions between February and June in the Town of Wallkill.

Ayurveda is a 4000 years old practice from India that has the sole purpose of bringing the body and mind into a state of health. It is a complimentary practice for every yoga practitioner to have knowledge of. Diet, lifestyle, and herbs are used to create balance within the elements of the body. Massage, meditation, and yoga may also be recommended as well.
Massage therapy can be a powerful healing tool both physically and emotionally. Most illnesses with the onset of symptoms are due to psychological distress. My sessions combine a fusion of swedish, deep tissue, cranio sacral therapy, lomi lomi, acupressure, body harmony, and zen shiatsu. You will feel deeply relaxed and rejuvenated after a session.

Chuwi Vi8 Unboxing Video and Review
Hannah V6:57 PM

Subscribe to my YouTube channel for gadget reviews and travel vlogs! Living the good life within my budget. ;)
This is a tablet that can morph from Windows OS to Android! It can fit in my purse and can act as my second work station. Something I can bring with my anytime, anywhere, just in case I have important work, or I am inspired to write a blog! Fascinating!
1. It can from Windows 8 to Android Kit Kat and vice versa.
2. Windows 8 is upgradeable to Windows 10. Although I don't recommend this because I did try to update but it did not work smoothly. The touch screen was not responsive when I updated and I had to use a mouse to maneuver the tablet to restore it to factory settings.
3. Light and compact, with the tablet weighing only 310 grams or 0.68 lbs. With packaging, it weighs 1.097 kb.
4. It's only about 8" x 4" and can fit in my usual bags. It's like an iPad mini but way lighter.
5. Expandable memory (via TF/micro SD card) of up to 64 GB, but I tried my 128 GB, and it seems to be working.
6. Decent battery time time.
Here are some things the Chuwi Vi8 can improve on.
1. Bigger internal memory (ROM) for more fun apps to install. It has a big potential to do so many things because it is Windows, it is just limited by the internal memory. I am able to survive with what I have by uninstalling apps I don't need and use just chrome browser for most things. With Chrome browser, you can use Google docs.
2. Better camera. I was not expecting the best, but the camera was something I would not bother using.
3. New version with Windows 10!
Other specs you should know about Chuwi Vi8.
- Gravity Sensing System/WiFi/Bluetooth Supported
- OS: Windows 8.1, Android 4.4
- CPU Brand: Intel
- GPU: Intel HD Graphic(Gen7)
- Core: 1.8GHz, Quad Core
- External memory: TF card up to 64GB (not included)
- Has WiFi and Bluetooth
- Screen type: Capacitive
- Screen size: 8 inch
- IPS: Yes
- Screen resolution: 1280 x 800 (WXGA)
- Camera type: Dual cameras (one front at 0.3 MP and one back at 2.0MP)
- Back camera: 2.0MP
- Ports: Micro USB and Mirco HDMI
- Audio: 3.5mm Headphone Jack and speaker capability, has Mic
- Battery Capacity: 5000mAh
- Battery / Run Time (up to): 5 hours video playing time
- G-sensor: Supported, Gravity Sensing System
- Product size: 20.7 x 12.2 x 0.8 cm / 8.14 x 4.79 x 0.31 inches
- Package size: 24 x 15 x 4 cm / 9.43 x 5.90 x 1.57 inches
- Package weight: 1.097 kg
- Included in the box: OTG Cable, Charger, USB Cable
It is highly suggested to not tinker on the app software, or hack it. Download apps via Google Play and Market. This is designed only to work with the current Android and Windows OS. Upgrades might make the tablet unstable.
The stated ROM amount shows the maximum available ROM with nothing installed. However, the Android/Windows OS and pre-installed software from the manufacturer will occupy some of this ROM. The available ROM on the device will therefore be slightly less than the ROM listed.

Fitbit Flex Unboxing Video and Review
Hannah V3:12 PM
sweets for free!
I was deeply involved in a conversation with friends when I realized that I am lucky I was able to live the prime years of my life in this century. This is the time when technology and creativity meet to fit my wants and needs in my lifestyle. I am a licensed CPA and I do obsess with numbers and analytics. I am also a Pole Fitness instructor and just a general health and fitness buff. Science and numbers fascinate me, and a few years back I struggled to measure my progress and my goals because I did not have the means to do so. All I could do before is count my steps manually (as in, in my head) because when I was younger I did not have even a pedometer with me.
It's such a great time because now, there are lots of gadgets that I could use to track, analyze and be better to achieve my personal goals.
I have received a Fitbit Flex for me to review and here are the things logged down after using it for 1 week!
What's in the box?
If you have seen my unboxing video, you will notice that I struggled a little in opening the box. At least you know that when you buy it, it should be sealed tightly as so. Here are the things you can find inside the Fitbit Flex box
- Removable Fitbit Flex™ tracker
- 2 wristbands (small and large) - I use the small wristband
- Charging cable
- Wireless sync dongle
What is the Fitbit Flex wristband made of?
I am quite sensitive to a lot of things, metal, dirt, dust, and so many other things that wearing a watch is kind of tricky for me. I was worried that when I start to sweat with the Flex wristband, that I would start to itch, but I didn't! I wear it with me all the time when I take a stroll in the mall, when I go to the gym and when I warm-up my pole class.
The Flex wristband is made of flexible, durable elastomer material. Most sports watches usually use this material. It has a surgical-grade stainless steel clasp to secure the band to your wrist.
I'm glad that the designers thought about this so I can wear it for longer periods of time. Sometimes I forget that it's there and I can sleep through without it bugging me.
Functions and specs
- 3-axis accelerometer to monitor daily activity
- Vibration motor to monitor sleep
- Discreet LED display with 4 white indicator lights
- Tap twice to see progress against the goal you set in your dashboard
- Tap rapidly for 1 to 2 seconds to start or stop sleep tracking. I don't even do this but it still tracks my sleeping activity.
- Water resistance. Fitbit Flex has been tested up to 1 ATM. This means it is sweat, rain and splash proof. This device is however not meant to be taken with to the shower or for a dive or swim.
- Radio transceiver is a Bluetooth 4.0
- Operating temperature is 4° to 113°F
- Maximum operating altitude is 30,000 feet
- Flex tracks data for 7 days of detailed motion data, minute by minute
- Tracks daily totals for the past 30 days.
- During the day, it tracks steps, distance, and calories burned.
- At night, it tracks sleep quantity and you can set it to wake you up silently in the morning. It works when you sleep with another person and you don't want to use the sound alarm to disturb them.
- You can encode your personal stats and set goals, and the app will do all the tracking work for you.
- Set goals, log food, see progress, analyze trends and earn achievement badges through your mobile and online dashboard.
- Share and compete with friends and family on the leaderboard and in NEW Fitbit challenges.
- Syncing range: 20 feet
- Syncing to computers requires Internet connection and USB port
- Syncing to mobile devices requires Bluetooth and Internet connection
- Syncs with Windows Vista and later, Mac OS X 10.6 and up, iPhone 4S and later, iPad 3 gen and later, and leading Android and Windows devices
Caring for Fitbit Band and Helpful Tips
- Keep the band dry and clean.
- If the band gets weat, remove completely and dry before putting it back on. Moisture breeds bacteria and germs.
- Clean the wrist band with a mild soap-free solution like Cetaphil or Aquanil, rinse throughly and again, let dry
- Rest your wrist by taking off the band once in a while.
- Charge accordingly. Unlike other wearable watches, the Fitbit Flex can be used for 5 days on full charge. That's what was said on their official website, but I was able to use it for 7 days, because I forgot the charging wire and I was out of town.
Packaging is good and well-sealed. However, it was little bit hard to open. On the good side, you will know that the band is really secure and you should not worry about it slipping off your wrist and lose it. As for the wrist band, it was hard for me to snap the wristband to my wrist upon initial use. I guess the rubber needs to be warmed up. Suggestion, warm up the wrist lock by locking and unlocking it a few times before using it.
What I love about Fitbit Flex is that it is stylish enough to be worn with my other accessories. Unlike the other fit bands that I use, the design is sleek, simple and not as attention-grabbing as its other sibling models that have a huge screen or watch.
It fits perfectly and I love wearing it!

Random Brain Farts
Hannah Villasis2:45 AM
1 sweets for free!
Hello online blog! :)
It's 2:32 am and I can't sleep. Insomnia. Hyperactive brain. Social media distractions. Back in May 2008 (when I first started my blog), I would write and talk about what happened during my day - just like a diary. The difference is, there's no secret lock or secret text codes (I do have a secret language only I can understand lol), the world can see my thoughts and my brain farts, like this one you are reading.
What is so interesting about my life? Pretty much the same as you. I believe that each one of us has our own story unique to our own. Mine is mostly all about my curiosity, dreams and passion. To some, it could be all about just daily struggles or the lack of it. Whatever it is, I'm 100% sure you have a story to tell. Something just unique to you. Write it down on a blog like me and find people who are attracted to your uniqueness and follow you. Who knows? Or not. Maybe you're secretive or you just don't care.
Just do one thing that scares you, or something that's outside of your comfort zone. You will be surprised how your story could evolve.
Boredom. Insomnia.
Two words that gave birth to my blog. I'm on my 7th year of blogging now. I've been on a hiatus a few times. The one thing I like about my blogging is that there really is no pressure at all. I share what I can and I hope to inspire people to become their best selves.
If you are reading this, please say "hi" on the comment section below :) It will take just a minute. :)
Until the next brain fart.

New faces of the Ultera Barkada Family
Hannah Villasis10:49 AM
sweets for free!
PLDT HOME Ultera is known for Ultra-fast LTE and what more to celebrate this fun feature by having talented and fun-loving volleyball players Alyssa Valdez, Jaja and Dindin Santiago, Rachel Daquis, Ara Galang, Mika Reyes, John Vic De Guzman and Peter Torres. Each of these young athlete-celebrities has been making waves in their field, with a fan base that multiplies by the day.
"I am so excited to officially represent PLDT HOME Ultera," Valdez said. "I'm the type of person who goes all out in everything I do not just in court, but also at home with family and friends. I value moments where I can stay home and have fun with my three brothers and PLDT HOME Ultera lets us siblings go all out with movie marathons and video game play-offs."
Multi-award-winning athlete Valdez is one of the country's top volleybelles, the UAAP Season 77 MVP and the Shakey's V-League 2015 Conference MVP. Joining her in the PLDT HOME Ultera family are "Twin Towers" Dindin and Jaja Santiago, who have each garnered impressive titles to their names from Shakey's V-League 2015. They are close friends on top of sisters and even now that Dindin is married, they are still able to keep in touch and maximize their bonding moments with the help of PLDT HOME Ultera.
Among the skilled bunch is Philippine Super Liga 2015 Finals MVP Rachel Daquis, who comes from a close-knit family of seven people and is dedicated to being an ideal role model for her two younger siblings, niece and nephew. UAAP Season 75 MVP Ara Galang makes the most of her free time through movie nights with her parents and gaming with older brother. UAAP standout Mika Reyes spends time at home taking care of her younger siblings and catching up with relatives through social media.
Completing the Ultera Barkada family are top male volleyball icons Peter Torres, who is constantly protective of his four younger siblings, and John Vic De Guzman, who cherishes karaoke nights at home with his mom and siblings. Not only do these ambassadors excel in their sport and at home, but they are all friends off the court, making them the perfect Ultera "barkada family" who epitomize all out fun through their bonding moments.
There is no doubt that PLDT HOME Ultera will continue to bring in fun in our household as in line with their advocacy for sports excellence among the country's youth. I, for one, am very happy that companies like PLDT recognize the benefits of sports and encourage it in our country's youth. It is thus more than fitting to strengthen the association of the country's prominent volleyball players to the brand.
"This power roster represents what PLDT HOME Ultera is all about," PLDT VP and HOME Marketing Head Gary Dujali said. "Each of them has gone all out in volleyball, rising to excellence through hard work and dedication. Now we're showing a side of them that goes all out at home with family and friends. The Ultera lifestyle is about going all out in anything you do and we apply that mantra to our home-based Internet connection. When it comes to the Internet, some think that WiFi hotspots and Internet cafes are as good as it gets. But PLDT HOME Ultera offers ultra-fast LTE connection and affordable broadband to enable all-out fun at home so you don't settle for anything less. Our Ultera barkada family embodies this message perfectly."
PLDT HOME Ultera delivers Ultra-Fast LTE for a Happy Family with Internet speeds of up to 10 Mbps. Plans start at P999 a month. Log on to pldthome.com for more ultra-fun offers.

MySlim Capsules and MySlim Yerba Mate - Flair Review
Hannah Villasis1:28 PM
sweets for free!
I have always been looking for a lifestyle program (not diet program) that will totally give me a healthy and fit physique, but also sustainable. Sustainable in a sense that it does not make me depressed or cause a certain imbalance in other aspects of my being.
Ever since February, I stopped eating meat (beef, pork chicken) and decided to have a pescatarian diet (veggies, seafood and eggs). This is because for some reason, my nosebleed is triggered by eating meat.
I thought I would lose weight, because after all, I gave up meat as a part of my diet. I only lost around 2-3 lbs in 3 months. Not much progress.
Metabolic Hack
Then, I discovered this new program from a friend who taught me the ways. I realized, the most effective way to lose weight is to target your metabolic rate. No matter how calories you take, it won't matter if your metabolism is slow. In fact, starving yourself or restricting your calories could make your metabolism slower.
Carb Cycling and Good Bye Sugar (except on cheat days)
This is just a disclaimer to tell you what kind of lifestyle program I am in before I tell you about my MySlim review. I just started doing this early May 2015 and I lost 10 pounds in one month. All I had to do is give up sugar, starch and bad carbs. A lot of people, though wanting to lose weight, are not willing to give up on these. It actually takes will power and commitment to do this and to achieve great results.
Carb Cycling is alternating low-carb and high carb days in a week, plus one cheat day (mine is Sunday). High carb day would only allow good carbs (slow-burning, low GI carbs - so yeah, still no rice). I combine this with at least 3x of gym time a week.
This is where MySlim Capsules and MySlim Yerba mate comes to a good cause, it complements my lifestyle program and when I learned about this product I got excited because of the many features it has all in one capsule and all in one drink.
This is the book that you can read if you want to know more about Carb Cycling. It worked for me and I highly recommend it.
MySlim CapsulesThese capsules came in handy. I said I gave up on sugar, starch and carbs but sometimes, you can't help but eat them especially when you are really starving and you don't have any food choices, you are traveling and it's hard to prepare food according to your diet, or you're out on a date or dinner with friends and family.
You can't kill the moment and just say, "no I can't eat that!" So in those times, I always have MySlim Capsules with me so that I can block the carbs from being processed.
Key ingredients of MySlim Dietary Supplement
1. Yerba Mate (Finomate)
- Boosts metabolism
- Increases caloric burn rate
- Suppresses appetite
- Stimulates mental focus and clarity
- Increases energy
2. Garcinia Cambogia (GarCitrin)
- Reduces appetite
- Blocks an enzyme in your body, preventing carbohydrates to be stored as fat
- Burns Fat rapidly
3. L-Carnitine (Carnipure)
- Converts fats into energy
- Promotes fat burning
- Reduces the sensation of hunger and facilitates a reduction in food intake
4. Green Tea Extract (EGCG)
- Increase Fat burning
- Fat loss
- Improve brain function
- Improve physical performance
I am actually aware that these 4 ingredients help boost metabolism and burn fat individually. I was so pleased and excited to hear that these are all in one product!
It is recommended to take one capsule, two times a day after meals. It is not recommended for children, pregnant and lactating women. Please consult your with your doctor before using this if you are taking prescription drugs.
Yerba Mate DrinkYerba Mate drink gives you twice the fat burning power with Yerba Mate (Finomate) and hi-grade L-Carnitine (Carnipure) in a sugar-free drink with Palatinose. It claims to burn fat the whole day while balancing sugar levels and bringing up your energy.
This bottle is very helpful if I drink it during my cheat day! I drink it at night after I ate already so many things. The next thing I wake up, I have the urge to go to the toilet, I weighed in again and I only gained about 0.5 - 1 lbs after binging out. When I say binge out I mean really eat till the food is up to my throat kind of binging!
Yeah I ate all that 😅😱🙊😵🍴😈 i really did. It's a must for this metabolic program 🔥 @sofitelmanila #cheatday #photogrid @photogridorgA photo posted by Hannah Villasis (@flaircandy) on
Weight ProgressI have been taking them since I arrived from Korea and on my first cheat day back (May 31). Here is a photo collection of my weighing scale as I track my progress. Again, I am doing Carb Cycling program plus, MySlim capsules and Yerba Mate.

Monday June 30, 2008
LAUSANNE, Switzerland (AP) -- Floyd Landis lost his final chance
to retain his 2006 Tour de France title today, when The Court of
Arbitration for Sport upheld his doping ban. A three-person CAS
panel agreed with a previous panel's decision that his positive
doping test during the Tour two years ago was, indeed, valid.
It was the last step of the American cyclist's
multimillion-dollar challenge that attempted to poke holes in the
anti-doping establishment. Landis also has been ordered to pay $100,000 toward the legal fees of the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency.
The decision comes just six days before the start of the 2008
Tour. Landis won the 2006 edition after a stunning comeback in
Stage 17. But the rally turned out to be fueled by synthetic
testosterone. Landis' two-year ban from cycling is due to end on January 30th of next year.

Monday and Tuesday last week were sort of write offs as far as cooking was concerned so we had a couple meals left over for the weekend and we decided to tack on the tilapia at the end of this week. Rick's favourite dish was the pork loin, which I just served with green beans as I'd failed to get more potatoes. I was partial to the mushroom ragu, although I would have preferred a greater mix of mushrooms. We used regular and king oyster mushrooms, but something a little stronger like some shitake or portabello would have been nice too. The cantonese chicken was pretty "meh", although I'm sure some sriracha would have perked it up.
Monday: Spinach Linguine with Tomato Sauce
Tuesday: Chicken Tikka Masala (made dairy free) – Rick's day to cook
Wednesday: Shrimp Sandwiches with Chipotle-Avocado Mayo
Thursday: Herb Mustard Pork Loin with Maple-Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Parsnips

Thank you.
Thank you for making such a simple, effective plugin for this widespread need!Wish I had installed it months ago instead of insisting that I would get the .htaccess file working. I simply wanted to hide a duplicate of my site that I was using for testing purposes. Your plugin worked perfectly.
If you need to lock down a site for private view, this plugin does the job very well, it adds a good few functions to change so that you can set varying levels of lock down and user vetting.
This plugin has help up through many WP upgrades and consistently does just what it should. It took me a little while to figure out some of the instructions, but that's my inexperience talking, not the plugin, which is actually quite easy to use and understand. A great way to control spam and keep an eye on who's using my site.
This plug in makes it really easy to hide a site while its still in development.
Thank you so much!

Discover the lessons that helped bring about a new golden age of Disney animation!
Published for the first time ever, Drawn to Life is a two volume collection of the legendary lectures from long-time Disney animator Walt Stanchfield. For over twenty years, Walt helped breathe life into the new golden age of animation with these teachings at the Walt Disney Animation Studios and influenced such talented artists as Tim Burton, Brad Bird, Glen Keane, and John Lasseter. These writings represent the quintessential refresher for fine artists and film professionals, and it is a vital tutorial for students who are now poised to be part of another new generation in the art form.
Written by Walt Stanchfield (1919-2000), who began work for the Walt Disney Studios in the 1950s. His work can be seen in films like Sleeping Beauty, The Jungle Book, 101 Dalmatians, and Peter Pan.
Edited by Academy Award®-nominated producer Don Hahn, who has prduced such classic Disney films as Beauty and the Beast and The Lion King.
For nearly thirty years, the artists that passed through the gates of Disney Animation, and even non-artists like myself, were influenced by the craft, skill, wisdom, writings and sketches of Walt Stanchfield.
Roy Disney
Walt was a kind of Mark Twain for us at Disney. He always taught with humor and skill. You learned to see the world through his eyes. I remember him one day encouraging us to leap into our drawings with boldness and confidence, "Don't be afraid to make a mistake. We all have 10,000 bad drawings in us so the sooner you get them out the better!" Sitting in Walt's class was as much a psychology course as it was a drawing class. One couldn't help walk away with your mind and soul a little more open than when you entered.
Glen Keane, Walt Disney Animation Studios
Walt Stanchfield's classes and writings were little distillations of the man: quirky, strongly stated in a genial voice, and brimming with a lifetime of sharp observations about story telling and graphic communication. Whether he drew with a ball point pen or painted with a brush dipped in his coffee cup, he got to the essence of things and was eager to share what he learned to his eager disciples, myself among them. He was grizzled and he was great and proof that there was more than one Walt at the Disney Studio that could inspire a legion of artists.
John Musker, Walt Disney Animation Studios
Walt Stanchfield was one of Disney Animation's national treasures. His classes and notes have inspired countless animation artists, and his approach to drawing of caricature over reality, feeling over rote accuracy, and communication over photographic reproduction gets to the heart of what great animation is all about. Huzzah to Don Hahn for putting it all together for us!
Eric Goldberg, Walt Disney Animation Studios
During the Animation Renaissance of the 1990s, one of the Walt Disney Studio's best kept secrets was Walt Stanchfield. Once a week after work, this aged but agile figure jumped from drawing board to drawing board, patiently teaching us the principles behind the high baroque style of Walt Disney Animation drawing. Being in a room with Walt made you feel what it must have been like to have been taught by Don Graham. Having one of your life drawings be good enough to be reproduced in one of his little homemade weekly bulletins was akin to getting a Distinguished Service medal! Senior animators vied with trainees for that distinction.
Tom Sito, Animator/Filmmaker/Author of Drawing The Line: The Untold Story of the Animation Unions from Bosko to Bart Simpson
This exciting collection of master classes by the great teacher Walt Stanchfield is destined to become a classic on the order of Kimon Nicolaides' exploration of the drawing process. Stanchfield (1919-2000) inspired several generations of Disney animators and those of us outside the studio fortunate enough to happen upon dog-eared copies of his conversational notes, which we passed around like Leonardo's Codex Leicester. Stanchfield beautifully communicates the essence and joy of expressing ideas through the graphic line and accumulating a visual vocabulary. DRAWN TO LIFE is a treasure trove of cogent, valuable information for students, teachers and anyone who loves to draw.
John Canemaker, NYU professor and Academy Award-winning animation filmmaker
Walt Stanchfield, in his own unique way, taught so many of us about drawing, caricature, motion, acting and animation. Most important to me, was how Walt made you apply what you had observed in his life drawing class to your animation. Disney Animation is based on real life, and in that regard Walt Stanchfield's philosophy echoed Walt Disney's:
'We cannot caricature and animate anything convincingly until we study the real thing first.'
Andreas Deja, Walt Disney Animation Studios
Walt Stanchfield's renewed emphasis on draftsmanship at the Disney Studios transformed the seemingly moribund art of animation. His students were part of a renaissance with The Little Mermaid and Who Framed Roger Rabbit, a renaissance that continues with films ranging from The Iron Giant to Lilo and Stitch to Wall-E.
Charles Solomon, Animation Historian
I'm so grateful to Focal Press for publishing these fabulous Walt Stanchfield books. They are veritable 'gold dust' for the serious (and aspiring) animator! So 'hurrah' to Focal and 'hurrah' to Don Hahn to committing himself to compiling them. I ordered my copies the minute I saw them and will of course hope my students are smart enough to do so too!

Amazon.com で最も参考になったカスタマーレビュー (beta)
There are two volumes, each with over 400 pages. The reason for two volumes is probably to make the books easier to handle. Both are on gesture and life drawing, even though the cover art might suggest otherwise, especially the one with the lion. You can start reading from any book and any lecture. The order isn't important.
There are plenty of essays in the books. Each is a lesson relating to drawing and animation. It can be tangent drawings, creating believable characters, learning to observe, understanding gestures, etc. There are tips on almost anything relating to drawing. Loose and sketchy sketches serves as examples to the lessons.
These books are more thinking than drawing technique books. For example, the lessons are not about how to draw perspective, the lessons are about how to use perspective. You can view sample pages for volume one and volume two on amazon.com to get an idea.
The books represent a tremendous wealth of information and insight into drawing, animation and observation. After all, Walt Stanchfield has more than 50 years of experience in animation.
This book is recommended to those who are into animation and drawing.
(More pictures are available on my blog. Just visit my Amazon profile for the link.)
What this book is, is a very specialized art instruction book aimed at animation artists and Disney animation artists specifically. Still, it does teach focus on, and simplification of gesture in a way that can be effectively used in any medium. Had I to reduce Drawn to Life to its barest topic, it would be just that - capturing and communicating gesture. Animation requires special techniques adapted to 2D line drawing. Those are the heart of the book, along with Walt Stanchfield's philosophy, optimism, and personification of Disney post-WWII history.
The book is a collection of Walt Stanchfield's weekly lectures to the Disney animators, consisting of drawing handouts and notes. The lecture topics were, and are, essentially random (his own term) as this wasn't intended as a course of study, but as professional development and continuing ed for an existing, highly-accomplished staff of artists. There are 149 lectures in the first volume alone, under such titles as "Using Cylinders", "Think First ...", "Get Out Of Your Way", "Action Analysis", "Silhouette", and so on.
Having dabbled in art classes and books over the years, I often find such material highly-technical ... and deadly dull. Drawn to Life is neither. Though the volume is large (nearly 400 pages), each lecture chapter is short and to the point. Stanchfield's teaching style is literate and personable, often humorous and riddled with stories. Drawings accompanying each lecture are quite loose and sketchy, invariably on-point, and amazingly convincing. Who knew that the subtlest shift in the slant of a line could be so compelling?
I walked away with a renewed appreciation for animation artists, an enhanced vocabulary that includes terms like stretch and squish, and tools I lacked to evaluate animation quality. Recommended, not just for artists, but for anyone intrigued by animation. Naturally, the Disney characters and commentary sprinkled throughout are fun, too.

I love browsing the bookstore.
It has a pretty geeky/elitist selection of quality literature. You can find classics (mostly things in public domain) for £2.50, new biographies, histories of London, quirky non-fiction publications, well selected fiction and non-fiction, travel books, some cookery books, gifts and non-tacky/actually useful London paraphernalia.

There's a great local feel to this lovely bookshop. They have a great selection of books relating to the local history of the area and a good range of multicultural books giving a sense of community to the feel of the place. They also stock plenty of other books from good fiction to documentary, children's books and more.
As well as books Eastside sells some a brilliant range of nice cards....more
Really, a lovely little bookshop with a long-standing history in this area. Where it could have succumbed to the temptation to sell cool books to all the cool people that pass through this street (y'know how Fopp does it - bit of Orwell, bit of Camus, bit o' Kafka), they actually got a really well-stocked selection of fiction.
The kind of fiction you've always wanted to read, or thought...more

An iconic hotel renovated with style and sophistication.
Much loved for its isolated storybook setting, complete with swans, swaying palms and almost twelve acres of lush gardens and tiled courtyards, Hotel Bel-Air has renewed its dedication to luxury with a complete renovation. The hotel's longtime clientele of celebrities, dignitaries and industry leaders relish these changes while appreciating the preservation of the familiar Spanish Colonial architecture awash in signature "Bel-Air Pink." Different design themes in the guest rooms and suites represent the glamour of the 1930s, '40s and '50s. There are also twelve new accommodations built into the hillside, with canyon views, sliding glass walls, outdoor fireplaces and decks with private spa pools. Seven individually designed specialty suites include a new 6,775-square-foot Presidential Suite complete with a chef's kitchen and private dining for ten. Also new is a 12,000-square-foot structure (in Spanish mission style), featuring a fitness studio and three loft-style guest rooms with open floor plans. The addition of Spa by La Prairie adds cachet to the hotel's already established reputation for pampering. Wolfgang Puck at Hotel Bel-Air focuses on California farmer's market cuisine with European and Mediterranean influences --- showcasing the culinary expertise of a master. As for the swans, they remained throughout the renovations, as faithful as ever during the seamless melding of classic and modern that is sure to make the Hotel Bel-Air a favorite for generations to come.
