NEW YORK (Real Money) -- Everyone gets a warning, so consider this a warning.
I am talking about how tempting it is to put Tesla Motors (TSLA) Chief Executive Elon Musk on the Wall of Shame after that horrendous -- some would say ridiculous -- quarterly report and conference call Thursday night.
I have called Tesla a cult stock for ages, the definition of a cult stock meaning that its stock can't be valued by traditional metrics. To believe in Tesla, you had to believe that the car would be better than any other car in its class and that its CEO would execute on the electric technology and allow this company to grow from an automobile start-up to the world's most lucrative manufacturing company.
Musk dashed pretty much every aspect of the dream Thursday night. The company missed on sales, earnings, gross margins, cash flow -- negative $455 million-- and guidance.
It is burning money like crazy. It is spending money like crazy.
No way the balance sheet can support the investment needed. Meanwhile, the other guys, notably BMW and General Motors (GM) are catching up and offering very competitive models.
But that isn't why I think that Musk is courting a position on the Wall. It is Musk himself and what he said during the call and in his statement.
I will let his quotes hang himself.
First, why were sales weak? There were manufacturing problems that held the company back, and delivering the cars, he said "was physically impossible due to a combination of customers being on vacation, severe winter weather and shipping problems."
Hmm. Customers on vacation.

One of my favorite things in the world is when a brand that I've hated on in the past starts to make a bit of a turnaround. I've seen a couple of decently cute new Tory Burch bags pop up on shopping sites lately, and I had been cautiously hopeful, but I wasn't sure if I should say anything until I saw the Tory Burch Efram Hobo.
This bag made me sit up and pay attention as soon as I laid eyes upon it, and I could barely believe that it was one of Ms. Burch's bags. It's lines are so clean, it's color so wonderful, and it's branding so understated that I wondered for a moment if the website had mislabeled it. But they hadn't – the very cool-looking rows of tonally colored enamel tiles running down the sides of the bag bare the brand's logo, but in a way that is subtle and tasteful. I never thought I'd describe one of her bags as subtle OR tasteful, and this beautiful, functional hobo embodies both of those qualities. And the price ain't bad either – Buy through Nordstrom for $550.
P.S. Please consider supporting our small, bag-loving team by clicking our links before shopping or checking out at your favorite online retailers like Amazon, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, or any of the listed partners on our shop page. We truly appreciate your support!

Any adventure is an opportunity to find interesting subject matter. It could be people working, the street you are walking down, or any of a thousand things you find visually exciting at any given moment. Always keep in your mind the elements of a good picture. Composition, color balance, repetition of form is good design. Does your eye follow a natural path viewing the picture?
Is the photo safari a good idea that will improve our skills make us better photographers? Yes it certainly will improve your skills. I will even tell you how and why it works. Artists and photographers are visually oriented. After they learn color and design, composition and color balance. They start using these elements in their work. Every photo we take, or picture we paint adds to our body of experience. I learn something from every picture I paint and every photo I take.
The painter is criticizing the painting all the while he paints it. What does it need? What should I do now? Sometimes he will just look at a painting for half an hour or so. Eventually, the painting tells him what should be done. The photographer works a little differently. He works while setting up the shot. He is moving around, looking for the right place to shoot, set his composition by zoom, camera height, angle, and optimal setting for exposure.
Then he pushes the button and it is done. He does the same thing for every picture he takes. The photographer goes back to his studio, and uploads his photos to his photographic software. Then he will criticize and tweak every shot he took. This self criticism by both the painter and photographer provides a new learning experience with each new work. Your body of experience and knowledge grow with every work you complete. How could you possibly do anything but improve your skills and results.

Seeking redemption is one thing, saving yourself from humiliation is another.
Canberra hope to do both in Saturday's NRL battle with a similarly desperate Wests Tigers at GIO Stadium.
Coach Ricky Stuart has invited around 60 past players and club legends to watch on as the Raiders set out to make amends for big losses to Parramatta and Cronulla.
Among them will be Melbourne coach Craig Bellamy and new Kangaroos mentor Mal Meninga.
"We need to perform in front of them," skipper Jarrod Croker said.
"I thought they would've been pretty pleased with the way we started the season, but the last few weeks have been pretty disappointing.
"It's a big occasion for the club and we want to go out there and make those guys proud."
Fullback Jack Wighton said it means a lot to have ex-stars reunite in Canberra, and is especially excited about catching up with them post-match.
"I think they deserve as much appreciation as anyone because they got us to where we are," Wighton said.
"But it's all not about them, it's about us a team. We've got to play good."
Stuart this week called on his players to "man up" and take responsibility for what's been two weeks of poor football.
They conceded a combined 76 points against the Eels and Sharks, and managed to score only 22.
"We're obviously out to redeem ourselves," Croker said.
"We've not only had two losses, we've had two pretty ordinary losses.
"We leaked quite a few points in both games after what was a pretty good first four or five weeks for us.
"We've had a big week of training, we've put (those games) behind us pretty quickly and moved forward."
Shoring up their defence, especially on the edges, will be key against the likes of custodian James Tedesco and exciting halves Mitchell Moses and Luke Brooks.
But so, too, is a shift in attitude.
"Our attitude needs to be better," added Croker.
"We were embarrassed at home last week, we can't have that twice in a row – let alone at home.
"There's 13 of us across the park that need to work on that. But we'll be fired up tomorrow night.
"Both sides are going to be desperate, both sides are going to have that energy."
For the fifth straight season, the Tigers are on a five-game losing streak and are hoping not to make it a sixth.
All five games have been lost by 12 points or less, including last week's golden-point 19-18 defeat to the Storm.
* Wests Tigers have won 11 of their past 14 matches against the Raiders since 2009, including six of the last seven in Canberra
* The Raiders have been awarded the most penalties this season (average of 10.4 per game) and it's paid off – 10 of their 23 tries have come from the set after a penalty
* The Tigers have won just one of their past nine away matches

Interested in Fort Lauderdale?
We'll send you updates with the latest deals, reviews and articles for Fort Lauderdale each week.
Topics include Dining Scene, United States: For Foreign Visitors & more!
The following article has been posted by TripAdvisor staff in accordance with Wikipedia's Terms of Use.
Fort Lauderdale, unlike many cities, has an official program for designating and recognizing neighborhoods. Under the Neighborhood Organization Recognition Program, more than 60 distinct neighborhoods have received official recognition from the city. An additional 25–30 neighborhoods exist without official recognition, although the city's neighborhood map displays them as well
Palm Aire, Florida was an unincorporated census-designated place in Broward County, Florida consisting of residential property, commercial businesses, and four golf courses. Palm Aire describes both Palm Aire Village, a collection of single family houses, and Palm Aire Country Club, a 5,000 acre property with condominiums, villas, estate homes, and four golf courses. It is now part of the cities of Fort Lauderdale and Pompano Beach. As of the 2005 census, the CDP population was 5,784 in Fort Lauderdale and a population of 12,137 in Pompano Beach. The city of Fort Lauderdale incorporates the subdivision known as Palm Aire Village West, as well as a portion of the subdivision known as Palm Aire Village East. The subdivision was unincorporated until the residents voted to incorporate into the city of Fort Lauderdale in September 1999. Although the 2000 census reported it as a separate area, by September 2000, it was fully legally incorporated into Fort Lauderdale.
The area commonly known as Palm Aire is actually a considerable portion of southwest Pompano Beach, comprising numerous condominium developments, golf courses, rental units and valuable homes. Palm Aire Country Club is home to several smaller sub-communities: Misty Oaks, Vizcaya, Fairview Pointe, Cypress Reach, Oasis, Palm Aire Gardens, & Royal Point. Additional pictures and virtual tours of all of the communities in Palm Aire may be found by viewing the external links below
Poinsettia Heights is a neighborhood in the northeast section of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and its boundaries are west of Federal Highway (US 1), north of Sunrise Boulevard and adjacent to the neighborhoods of Lake Ridge and Middle River Terrace. The original development, called "North Ridge," was built by Gill Construction Company right after World War II in the 1940s and early 1950s.
Today the simple, brightly painted homes line the streets from 15th Avenue on the west to 20th Avenue and Lake Melba on the east. The Middle River forms a natural boundary to the north and 13th Street separates it from the neighboring Lake Ridge.
Poinsettia Heights is a quiet and unassuming neighborhood that, due to existing regulations, is zoned single family residents and allows townhomes and condos only along the two main thoroughfares. Two schools are located in within the neighborhood (Sunrise Middle School and Bennett Elementary School.) Shopping can be done along U.S. 1 and its eastside location. Homes generally range from 1,100 to 1,800 square feet (170 m2) but with new construction can be in excess of 4,000 square feet (370 m2).
The Rio Vista neighborhood is a community of over 1,000 homes, situated next to downtown Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Its name means "River View" in Spanish. It is one of the oldest communities in Fort Lauderdale and features tree-lined streets, sidewalks and unique architecture.
At the close of World War I, Ft. Lauderdale had approximately 2,000 residents. An era of prosperity and new transportation in the 1920s allowed Fort Lauderdale to begin the migration from an agricultural community to a resort town. Residential areas, such as Rio Vista and Colee Hammock, began to develop. The first plat of the area was recorded by Mary Brickell (wife of William Brickell) of Miami and major landholder. Upon her death, the land was purchased by C.J. Hector, who began his "River View" development. By February 1923, the Ft. Lauderdale Herald (now the Sun Sentinel) reported that Rio Vista was booming, with over 5,000 feet of sidewalk laid and streetlights were installed.
The land boom reached its zenith by 1925, when Ft. Lauderdale's population reached 16,000. On September 18, 1926, the coast of South Florida was devastated by the 1926 Miami Hurricane which put the area into a depression, three years before the rest of the country entered its economic depression. With the onset of World War II, thousands of servicemen discovered this area and settled here after the war. Rio Vista development began again, and today, the area reflects the history.
The community is bounded by Federal Highway (U.S. 1) on the west, bordered on the east by the Intracoastal Waterway, south of the New River and north of SE 12th Street (north of the neighborhoods of Harbordale and Lauderdale Harbours.)
The Seven Isles neighborhood comprises 315 households, with approximately 1,145 residents, and is situated north of Las Olas Boulevard. The Intracoastal Waterway borders the east and north boundaries, while the neighborhoods of Sunrise Key and Sunrise Intracoastal are to the north, the neighborhood of Central Beach is east of it, the neighborhoods of Idlewyld and Riviera Isles are to the south, Las Olas Isles is located southwest of it, and the neighborhood to the west of the Intracoastal Waterway is Nurmi Isles.[1][2] There are nine streets within the Seven Isles: Aqua Vista Boulevard, Barcelona Drive, Castilla Isle, Del Mar Place, De Sota Drive, De Sota Terrace, Pelican Isle, Sea Island Drive and Seven Isles Drive.

This page is about well-known Porirua boxing coach Chris Kenny.
Top boxing coach Chris Kenny at his Porirua City gym, with Tai Ratuere (left) and New Zealand's number one welterweight, Leti Leti (right).
"There's always some new kid on the block and you think "This is it; this will take me to Madison Square Garden in New York", say Chris Kenny.
"That would be the pinnacle."
Now, he says, make a note of the name Leti Leti – a 20-year-old Samoan kid showing great promise – he's the number one welterweight in New Zealand winning the national tital last year after demolishing two opponents in quick succession.
To run through Chris's coaching career is to list a who's who of New Zealand boxing.
At the top would be Chris's son Michael: a 1984 Los Angeles Olympic contender, Commonwealth Games gold medallist, six times New Zealand champ and four times Oceania champ.
Chris has trained eight Oceania champions, New Zealand champions and Commonwealth Games team members, with Danny Hedifen, Greg Weenink, Steve Renwick and Rex Redden (Snr) among the best.
And it was Chris, Bill English (now New Zealand's Deputy Prime Minister) looked to when training for the 2002 charity Fight for Life. "He could have been a good fighter. He's a tough guy."
From 1993 to 1997 Chris was New Zealand National Coach, taking the team to the Atlanta Olympics, and for eight years he was the New Zealand National Director of Coaching.
He started a coaching for coaches' programme and developed coaching standards that are widely used today, and he travels the world conducting Olympic Solidarity coaching seminars, most recently in North Korea and Bangladesh.
Chris is still deeply involved in New Zealand boxing. He is currently president of the Wellington Hutt Valley Boxing Association and has been the International Amateur Boxing Association coach for the Pacific region since 1998.
He was made a life member of Boxing New Zealand in 2006.
Chris was a pretty handy fighter in his day – a one time New Zealand and Australasian boxing champion in his weight.
After being knocked down in his prime by a serious bout of Hepatitis, which put him in hospital for weeks he began boxing coaching.
Initially, Chris helped out at a wrestling and boxing gym in Titahi Bay, Porirua and then one day the owner gave him the keys.
At the time, it was an empty hall with nothing but a wrestling mat on the floor. For years he travelled from Tawa in neighbouring Wellington City to open up. Sometimes no one showed.
Today, the small weatherboard gym is a short jog away from his Titahi Bay home, and some nights you can hardly move with 30 and more kids competing for space.
He'd like to expand but doesn't have the cash.
Inside a boxing ring, draped with boxing gloves, takes up three-quarters of the floor space. Around it, the walls are densely plastered with old boxing posters, fight notices, photos and words of wisdom; like the picture of a kitten seeing itself as a lion in the mirror, which reads: "What matters most is how you see yourself".
For Chris the mental ability of his boxers is as important as the physical, because it's a tough road for an aspiring boxer aiming for the top.
Sadly Chris passed away on 2 February 2016. He was 78.

" Genre: Fiction / Romance / Author: Jamie McGuire / Edition: 2 / Kindle Edition / 446 Pages / Book is published 2011-05-26 by Jamie McGuire, LLC "
Abby Abernathy is conservative, tough and takes no nonsense from anyone. She's determined to escape her old life, and so keeps to herself, avoiding any attention or trouble - until Travis Maddox makes an appearance, that is. Travis is everything Abby is not. He's confident, promiscuous and constantly under the public eye. From the moment they set eyes upon one another during one of Travis' underground fights, the connection between the pair is undeniable. But Travis is everything Abby has been trying so hard to avoid, and so she's left with the resounding question: should she risk everything for something that could be either simply beautiful, or a complete disaster?
I had this book on my Kindle for so long, but put off reading it over and over - until I had to procrastinate from writing my dissertation for university, that is! I was captivated from the first few pages and, by the end of the novel, sorely regretted not reading it sooner.
Jamie McGuire's 'Beautiful Disaster' has everything I look for in a YA romance - and so much more. Travis and Abby are very real. At first glance, it appears to be your typical "good girl meets bad boy" story - but, as the novel unfolds, the reader realises how fleshed out each character really is. They each have their secrets and their flaws, and are very easy to connect with. Both Abby and Travis each has a past that has affected not only the way they behave in general, but their attitudes in regards to their troublesome relationship.
The relationship itself is, of course, a complete rollercoaster of emotions. Travis and Abby are incredibly dysfunctional - but they know it, and that makes it rather refreshing. The emotions involved are raw and real, and completely draw you in to the relationship. I can't remember the last time I got so involved in a romance novel that I wanted to re-read it as soon as I had finished - but that's exactly how I felt with 'Beautiful Disaster.'
Honestly, this book, for me, was just so absorbing. McGuire's writing style is just the write mixture of formal and informal - remaining interesting and flowing whilst still retaining an element of literary merit. As mentioned previously, her characterisation is wonderful, too. The reader really cares for the characters and whether or not they will get their happy ending.
That's not to say it's the perfect novel for everyone, though. It has its faults. It can be rather clichéd it times, as well as repetitive. Some of the issues within the novel have been viewed as controversial, such as Travis' violence. However, as a whole, I thought it was a wonderful novel and thoroughly enjoyed it. I've read it twice now, and will probably read it again. I would recommend it to most fans of the genre - especially those who love a reformed bad boy and an intense love story!
This review comes from my blog, Scarlet Letters (sfmscarletletters.blogspot.com), and is also posted on Goodreads and Amazon.

Some women do odd things when they go through a divorce. Some hire the best lawyer in town to get the most out of their broken marriage, some seclude themselves at home with the kids feeling sorry for themselves, spending countless hours on the phone telling their friends about their ex´s latest moves and looking at old photo albums.
I did all of the above. And I wrote.
Since thousands of women have gone through this moment what better thing than to document the sleepless nights, the anxiety and the sad, really sad feelings that go through our veins when a love story ends? Because a failed love story began one day when the hopes were high and the butterflies ran free inside our stomachs, when the person that you meet in front of a judge today was the one taking you to cloud nine.
Crocodile and I had those moments. He literally turn my world upside down, made me forget about my former life, set my heart on fire. He was so kind, so loving and so attentive that nothing else matter.
One day, without prior notice, he changed. He began to act like I was no longer the center of his universe and that put a crack in my heart, a crack that ended up at a family court house. A crack that became bigger and bigger and caused me to suffer from insomnia, to loose a lot of weight, to feel increasingly sad, to forget or not care about important events, friends. The crack took over my peace, controlled my temper and pushed me into a serious depression.
Women endure many things for love. Many lies, many disappointments and even many insults that would have seemed impossible when you first met.
For me the worse was to be replaced by another women before I even had had time to move out with my two kids.
Crocodile wanted to fly solo, marriage was not for him he said, he no longer wanted to be in a relationship. He had filed for bankruptcy and needed to sell the house etc. At that point the level of suffering was already unbearable. He acted like a bitter man most of the time.
I left and filed for divorce. Who wants to force someone to love them back? Only a few days after I had moved into a small apartment with my two small children he asked a new woman to move in with him, proposed and took her to Bali. They posted pictures on Facebook from out bed. This girls´underwear made it to my new house though the cleaning lady that we were still sharing.
At that point you stop suffering and begin struggling with reality. Because we are women and because we are mothers, we find the strengh to remove the bullets, clean the wounds, put lipstick on, and stand up.

The total Canadian IT market was valued at US$42 billion in 2008. The computer hardware sector accounts for about 38 percent of the IT market, with a total market size of US$16.1 billion in 2008. According to the Information and Communications Technology Council, growth in the computer hardware sector has slowed to approximately 2.5 percent in 2007 and 2008, from a growth rate of 6.4 percent in 2006 due to intense pricing pressure.
Growth in this sector is expected to rebound and continue at a compound annual growth rate of 3.5 percent throughout the next three years and to reach a spending of over US$16.9 billion by 2010. The primary market drivers of growth in this sector will be new software applications and hardware replacement cycles.
The personal computer (PC) market is the largest sub-sector in the Canadian computer hardware sector and represents 43 percent of hardware spending. This sub-sector was valued at US$6.6 billion in 2006 and is expected to post an annual growth rate of 2.5 percent over the next three years to reach a total spending of US$7.1 billion by 2010.
The second largest sub-sector in the hardware market is 'other hardware' category that includes printers, handhelds, and other hardware-related items. This sector accounts for 35 percent of the hardware market. The spending in this sector was US$5.2 billion in 2006 and it is expected to have an annual growth rate of 4.9 percent between 2007 and 2010 when estimated spending to be reached is US$6 billion.
The multi-user hardware (server) market captures 13 percent of the total hardware spending with expenditures of US$1.9 billion in 2006. This sector is projected to grow at an annual rate of 3.6 percent with an estimated US$2.2 billion dollars of spending by 2010. Spending in the volume server category (multiple units) will be the main driver for the growth of this sector whereas growth in the sales of the mid-range servers will remain flat.
Finally, the smallest sub-sector in the hardware segment is storage hardware, accounting for only 8.9 percent of total hardware spending. This sector was valued at US$1.35 billion during 2006. It is estimated this sector will post an annual growth rate of 2.1 percent until 2010 when spending will reach US$1.4 billion. The main reason for the slowdown in this sector is the decline in the demand for direct attached storage and tape storage. However, the market for network attached storage and storage area networks is growing at a greater pace under this category.
Best Products / Services
IDC Canada has identified a number of growth trends in Canada's hardware market. U.S. companies seeking to enter into Canada's computer hardware market may find opportunities in the following areas:
- In the PC market, the notebook, specifically netbooks, will continue to have the biggest share in the hardware market, while the sale of desktops will continue to decline.
- In the multi-user hardware or server market, volume servers will be the growth driver.
- In the storage sector, network attached storage and storage area networks will be the main growth area.
Canadian companies have a strong preference for vendors with a local presence either directly or through a partner. Selling through value added resellers, systems integrators or partnering with a Canadian-based IT company is a quick and cost-effective way to reach a large customer base. Alternatively, U.S. vendors may choose to have a direct presence in the Canadian market.
Recently the Federal Government of Canada updated the procurement process for IT infrastructure. The federal government is interested in "Green IT" such as recycling initiatives, power-management strategies and virtualized work environments.

Hey, hey, hey folks, so we have done it, Christmas day has gone and if you are anything like me you have gorged on meat for the last few days and have more of the same heading your way over New Year. Well my recipes over the Christmas lull are vegetarian and focus on pumpkin and more specifically pumpkin puree… I usually have a bowl of pumpkin puree knocking around at this time of year and this pumpkin gnocchi recipe is the perfect way to give it a lift. It would be easy to think that it is the law to serve pumpkin with ubiquitous pumpkin spice but I think there is an even better combination flavours with this seasonal vegetable. This Pumpkin Gnocchi with Roasted Chestnuts and Blue Cheese makes the most of two things that I think just make pumkin sing, nuts and blue cheese… That savoury crunch alongside the astringent saltiness of blue cheese just makes the sweetness of the pumpkin stand out and it is this combination of ideas that will form the next two recipes.
For the record I have nothing against pumpkin spice, it is lovely, but in the same way that 'oranges aint the only fruit' pumkin spice aint the only flavour to rock with pumpkin. So much so that I have dishes like Burmese pumpkin Curry that go heavy with tamarind to contrast against the sweet pumpkin and of course a good kick of heat. But give these pumpkin gnocchi a try to get started, the flavour profiles are great and you can double or quadruple this recipe with no difficulty and the gnocchi freeze fabulously, just cook in boilin water then cool and freeze. When you want them just defrost and reboil, they will just need to come to temperature and off you go.
But for now I am off to a thermal spa, the excesses of the last few days have left be exhausted and all bleurgh, unfortunately we have no snow but it is as cold as a cold thing out there and really beautiful. There is just something magical about sitting in naturally heated mineral rich waters at 38°C as the the sun sets in temperatures a few degrees below zero… Getting out of the water definitely feels less magical and the trot of shame back into the changing rooms is definitely not a pretty site, although there is always forralt bor on offer, or mulled wine as it is known to most of you 😀
Pumpkin Gnocchi with Roasted Chestnuts and Blue Cheese
Pumpkin Gnocchi with Roasted Chestnuts and Blue Cheese, AKA as the taste of winter on a plate a really satisfying winter warming treat.
- 1 Pumpkin. I usually use a small butternut squash.
- 1 Tbsp Olive Oil.
- 1 Tbsp Coarse Sea Salt.
- 200 g Fresh Chestnuts.
- 25 g Parmesan Cheese.
- 1 Egg. Beaten.
- 300 g Plain Flour.
- 50 g Butter.
- 12 Sage Leaves.
- 50 g Roquefort Cheese.
- Preheat your oven to 200°C
- Cut your pumpkin in half, scoop out the seeds and then rub the oil into the cut face of the pumpkin, sprinkle over the salt and roast for an hour and a half or until soft.
- Meanwhile cut a cross in the skin of your chestnuts and then place in a small roasting tin and cook in the oven with the pumpkin for 20 minutes.
- When the chestnuts are cooked allow to cool a little and then peel, slice and set aside.
- Once your pumpkin is cooked, scoop out the flesh and pass through a vegetable mill or mash to form a puree and set aside to cool completely before making the gnocchi.
- Take 300g of the cooled pumpkin puree and put in a bowl with the beaten egg, Parmesan cheese and mix.
- Sift in the plain flour and stir until you get a soft dough, you do not want to work this dough too much or your gnocchi will be like bullets.
- The amount of flour you will need will depend on the amount of liquid given off by your puree so be prepared to adjust the recipe.
- Set aside this dough and allow to relax for 30 minutes.
- When ready take your dough and roll into a sausage about 2cm in diameter (do this in batches),cut these into 3cm lengths, the pressure of the knife should make them turn into little pillow shapes.
- Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil, when at a rolling boil throw in the gnocchi and boil until the float, this should take 3-4 minutes, do this in batches.
- Meanwhile melt the butter in a frying pan over a medium high heat and when it stops foaming and begins to colour add in the sage leaves and cook for 30 seconds, set aside anduse these to garnish your dish.
- Now add the chestnuts and cooked goncchi to the butter and toss to cover and serve.
- Finally crumble over the Roquefort cheese and the sage leaves and serve hot.
Recipe Notes
You will make far more pumpkin puree than you need but it will save in the fridge for a week or freeze really well and it is great served along side roasted meats, stirred through a risotto or pasta. Of course you can make excess gnocchi, after boiling and cooling they freeze wonderfully.

Reebok T 7.90 Elliptical Review
treadmill Doctor Note :
The T 7.90 is another version of the Super Ramp RL 7.0, these two machines are virtually indestinguishable.
The T 7.90 is another version of the Precor design patent. Good design, poor implementation and execution. We would suggest that you buy something else.

Cold press juice shops are still an uncommon breed in Fukuoka, despite their popularity in the West, but Walker Juice is stepping up to bring the first boutique version of this health craze to sprout up in Tenjin. Fukuoka Now attended the pre-opening event to give you the first taste of this new juice bar.
This cute little shop is tucked just behind the Kokutai-doro, the main road between Hakata and Tenjin, and the first thing that strikes you as you step in is the robust mechanical whirring noise; this is the sound of the state-of-the-art juicer. This machine uses a slow spinning blade to create a pulp, which is then wrapped in linen and squeezed with a hydraulic press. This process keeps in the maximum amount of minerals, vitamins and enzymes. But if that's still not healthy enough for you, a range of superfood add-ins are also available (from ¥100 each), with names so impossible to pronounce that you know they must be good for you, including Spirulina and Maquiberry. The menu is colour-coded (green, red, orange & yellow, and white), and – because your health is at the forefront of our minds – we decided to try one of each colour.
First up was Coco Veggie: pretty in pinky-orange, but don't let that fool you. This drink packs a serious grapefruit kick, layered on top of the sweeter flavours of coconut water, lemon and pineapple. Next was Dessert, made with beets, orange, carrot, lemon and cinnamon. This vivid cherry red drink has a sweet yet gentle taste that seems to belie its appearance. Nuts Milk is a creamy, pure white drink that comes in either cashew or almond, served with your choice of maple syrup or cinnamon. We had the cashew and cinnamon, a drink that was soothing and not overly sharp or sweet; more filling than the average cold press juice, but not as strong. Last up was the Skin Trip: a rich green juice, composed of mustard green, cucumber, pineapple, grapefruit, apple and lemon. This drink is pure sweetness on first sip, then there is an explosion of vegetable and herb-y tastes which feel as if they could cure the common cold.
For superlative taste and goodness, all the ingredients need to be organic, and the juice has to be made on site, bottle by bottle. The machine itself, the Norwalk Juicer (which we have on good authority is the best juicer around), also requires expert attention and care. This all means that the Walker Juice 100% raw juice can be a little pricy, at a cool ¥900~¥1,200 per cup. But if you're a yoga bunny, or simply want to kick start a healthy new lifestyle, these juices are a great addition to your routine. For a more drastic take, juice programs and cleanses are available, from ¥7,500 a day. Whatever your take on cold press juice, this certainly makes an interesting addition to the Fukuoka cafe scene.

The Go-Rock Quads (Japanese: ゴーゴー4兄弟 Four GoGo Siblings) are recurring characters in Pokémon Ranger. They are a musical quartet and the admins of the Go-Rock Squad. Together, they are the children of Gordor, the leader of the Go-Rock Squad. In their first appearance, they were villains, but after the team's disbandment, they travel the world playing their music.
Tiffany (Japanese: ミライ Mirai) is the only female sibling. Her favorite activity is shopping in Fall City where she makes her brothers or the grunts of the Go-Rock Squad carry her purchases. She was put in charge of searching for the legendary Pokémon in the Krokka Tunnel, so she blocked the entrance with rocks, making Aria and the player arrive to clear the rocks. Aria soon left and the player had to beat all the grunts while clearing the rockfalls and then had to face off against Tiffany, who summoned one Camerupt with a violin Styler to try to beat the player. Then Spenser arrived and Tiffany fled. The second time the player encounters her she is in the Go-Rock Squad's main base and battles the player again, still with her favorite Pokémon, two Camerupt.
Clyde Clyde (Japanese: ヨウジ Yōji) is a very "cool" person that likes to "stay with the trends" and is always hip and popular. Despite this, he oftentimes comes across as very lazy. He is put in charge of guarding the Jungle Relic while Gordor captures Entei. When the player meets him, he has just defeated Aria and battles the player with a Slaking, summoned by playing his instrument, a drum that appears to be of the 'ashiko' variety. When the player defeats him, he lets the player battle Gordor. The second time the player faces him, in the Go-Rock Squad main base, he has a Slakoth, Vigoroth and Slaking.
Garret (Japanese: ユウキ Yūki) is a smooth, polite person that can "put people down with the simplest of words". He is left to watch over the Dusk Factory in the seventh numbered mission of the game while it creates the new Power Stylers. When the player meets him he uses a Scizor (summoned by a bass guitar) to try to defeat the player but to no avail. When the player meets him in the Go-Rock Base his Scizor is joined by two Scyther.
Billy (Japanese: ヤライ Yarai) is the eldest and assumed leader of the four. He is clever and comes up with all of their plans. He is not faced until his siblings have been defeated a second time in the Go-Rock Squad Base and when that happens he gets very angry and attacks with more ferocity than all of the others. Billy uses a Larvitar,Pupitar and Tyranitar that he summons with an electric guitar.
After Billy is defeated, the Go-Rock Quads leave the Go-Rock Squad in shame and concentrate on their musical act. They do one last performance under the Joy Clock Tower before leaving Fiore to bring their music to distant lands.
The Go-Rock Quads also appeared in Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia as performers for Altru's seventieth anniversary. They are first seen rehearsing at Altru Park but are disrupted by Blake Hall at one time. Clyde storms out of the park first to think of a new song to replace the horrible song Dream Energy by Blake Hall. He goes to Brook's grandmother and hears a folktale. He then comes up with the song The Song of Vatonage and returns to the group at the park. They reappear there once Team Dim Sun takes over Altru Tower and make their final appearance performing outside the tower during the last scenes of the game.
They reappear once again in Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs, where they are the subject of a Quest. The player must track down Billy, Garret and Clyde and return them to Tiffany. Once reunited, the siblings perform a concert, with Ukulele Pichu as a special guest.
In the manga
In the W Mission Story: Pokémon Ranger - the Comic mangaThe Siblings in W Mission Story: Pokémon Ranger - the Comic
The four Go-Rock Quads appear as the main antagonists in this adaptation.
The first of the Quads to appear is Clyde, who reports to Garret that two Rank 10 Rangers have exited the Ring Town Ranger Base. After getting the information, Garret informs Clyde that he sent Tiffany to intercept them at Krokka Tunnel. Later, after Lunick and Solana battle Deoxys, Tiffany taunts them, revealing that she was the girl that had dumped Lunick the night before.
Garret arrives next and reveals that it was him who had defeated the Ranger Leaders, Spenser, Joel, and Elita by provoking Deoxys into attacking them. Clyde is the next to arrive and reveals that he had defeated Cameron, the last Ranger Leader, and throws his unconscious body at Solana and Lunick. Lastly, Billy arrives with a Manaphy Pokémon Egg, which was stolen from Cameron. All four play their instruments and introduce themselves as the Go-Rock Quads, the leaders of the Go-Rock Squad.
When Lunick demands to know what they want to do with the Egg, Clyde and Garret tells them that they intend to hatch it, but Billy interrupts them before they can reveal any more information. Tiffany is sent to the Go-Rock Squad Base alone with the Egg, leaving the rest to deal with Lunick and Solana. The two Rank 10 Rangers break free from Deoxys's control and Solana goes after Tiffany, leaving Lunick alone to face Billy, Clyde, and Garret.
Lunick attempts to use various Poké Assists to try and stop Deoxys, only for the Quads to have it change form to break free from each one. Billy sends a Tyranitar to send Lunick flying and steps on his Capture Disc, crushing it to pieces. As Tiffany makes her way to the Quads' base, she is ambushed by Solana who intends to take the Manaphy Egg back from her. As they battle, Tiffany reveals that her and her siblings instruments are actually the Super Styler, an upgraded Capture Styler whose designs were stolen from Professor Hastings.
Overhearing Tiffany mention a Sea Crown, the Ranger Leaders that were defeated by Deoxys realize the Quads objective. Elita realizes that the Quads aim to hatch the Manaphy Egg and use it to find the Sea Temple, Samiya, to obtain the Sea Crown and rule the world with it.
As the battle with Lunick continues, he realizes that three brothers can each use their instruments to control three of Deoxys's four forms. Clyde, with his drums, controls the Attack Forme; Garret, with his bass guitar, controls the Defense Forme; and Billy, with his electric guitar, controls the Speed Forme. Lunick is furious at the three for manipulating Deoxys, but Garret sends a Scyther to hold him into the air.
Before dropping Lunick, the Quads decide to capture his Minun as a last attempt to torture him. As Solana continues battling Tiffany, she receives an e-mail from Joel, who has figured out the secret to defeating Deoxys. While Tiffany tries to attack, Solana uses Ground-type,Rock-type, Ghost-type, Poison-type, and Dark-type Poké Assists to relay a secret mission to Lunick. Knowing how to free Deoxys now, Lunick breaks free from Scyther's grip and uses Minun to soften their fall. Lunick then has Minun break the Super Stylers Capture Lines, turning Deoxys back into its Normal Forme and allowing Lunick to capture it.
After Deoxys is freed, Solana has her Plusle break Tiffany's violin and retrieves the stolen Manaphy Egg from her. Lunick reveals to the Quads that when he was held by Scyther, Solana sent him the message "Normal", which gave Lunick the idea to force Deoxys back into its Normal Forme, allowing him to capture and free it. Defeated, the Quads make their escape, but not before swearing revenge on Lunick and Solana.

Beards, beards, beards. Seems like every third story on the Internet is about beards these days. Probably because no one can decide if they still rule or if they're a dated hipster fad best left to the Oughts.
Well, research says women aren't feeling beards much anymore, which is exactly what YouTube user Nick Mirka found when he documented the birth, growth, and reaping of his own beard.
After a couple months, Mirka's wife was over the facial fuzz, and "proclaimed its robust awesomeness was overwhelming for her heart. RIP Beard."
To that we'd like to echo: RIP beards. You were the hairiest.

Friday Dialogue from
Your Two Favorite Educators
As Emily and Aubrey look back over the week they use their razor sharp wit to assess their innermost feelings about helping students writing analysis.
How would you describe yourself as a writer in high school?
Aubrey: Dramatic. I was very overwrought and used lots of adverbs. There is this paper that I wrote over Faulkner's Light in August that I keep in the bottom desk drawer of my desk at school. It is the worst paper I have ever read. It is probably the worst thing I have ever written either. And I've read a lot of bad papers, things like AP essays that make up fake professors with fake research. This far surpasses the badness of all of those and is primarily a result of me trying to use big vocabulary and I was trying to make my sentences as complicated and emphatic as possible.
Emily: I was madly in love with a boy in high school and that seemed to find its way into everything I wrote. I very distinctly remember a piece I wrote for DJ Nell, the best English teacher to live, with the directions to write a narrative. I wrote about my boyfriend coming around the corner as a big hulking specimen of a man (you know you love the allusion, Gatsby lovers). I constantly remark now at how embarrassed I am of the person I was in high school. It is amazing I turned out halfway normal after high school. And, yes, I realize I am running a big risk with my students who read this blog for admitting this narrative topic. I've learned to accept and embrace my flaws as a 17-year-old!
I argue that developing analysis in writing is the hardest thing for students to do. What is their "go to" strategy they employ because it's the easiest?
Aubrey: They are very good at using rhetorical questions. Really terrible rhetorical questions. They also spend a lot of their time using phrases/words like "throughout history" or "epic" when I'm not sure they even understand what those mean.
Emily: I want to throw up every time I see a quotation as an opener to an essay. It never fails. Students think it is engaging their readers and insightful when, in reality, it is just copying someone's else genius idea to trick their readers into reading. Jokes on the students though…all it does is signal they have to rely on someone else's ideas to write an engaging piece of literature!
This week I introduced my "Add the Commentary" exercise. To practice what I preach, I would like you, Aubrey, to add the commentary to the following example:
Claim: Lindsay Lohan is a bit hot mess.
Evidence: Lohan has not completed any of her required community service and as a result is now required to complete her hours in the morgue.
Aubrey's Commentary: Clearly, Lohan is struggling to meet the expectations of her parole agreement. However, it seems as if ending up with "morgue" duty is indicative of a larger problem. First, it isn't clear how this forces her to interact with people in a meaningful way. Second, it seems to send a message about morgues that flies in the face of what CSI: Las Vegas teaches. Regardless of these two large issues, Lohan is still, if nothing else, a complete disaster. Any person who uses fingernail polish to send inappropriate messages, steals jewelry and forgets to wear underpants is truly has no shame.
Emily: What do I say to that. First, you wrote the word "underpants." Hysterical. Okay, I'll take a stab at it but know my commentary cannot hold a flame.
Emily's Commentary: Lindsey Lohan's transfer to the morgue signals a move of intolerance against idiocy. If Lohan weren't so dumb, she could actually avoid the whole scenario of jail/no jail that she is currently facing. Let Lindsey Lohan serve as an example to America's youth that you can weasel your way through situations, but, eventually, the man will always win.

I had heard of Create Space, and had friends publish there, but I wasn't sure if it was for me or not. As part of my reinventing my author "self", I created a Twitter identity for my work as an author (@bonniecehovet). In a conversation there with the amazing Carolyn Howard-Johnson, I found that I had some misconceptions about Create Space - the biggest one being how much it would cost me to get a book up.
I could do the basic prep work myself - format, add the page numbers, convert to PDF etc. This allowed me to put my book up (with ISBN number!) free! That's right - it did not cost me a penny! I chose to put it up on Amazon.com as a print book, and on Kindle as an e-book. In this way, I feel that it will reach a fairly large audience. It is a nich book (Tarot interviews), so the audience will be somewhat limited.
I just ordered a preview copy, and am hoping that I do not have to make any chnages. I used the site template for the book cover and back, and am very, very pleased with the result. I chose cream colored pages (which you can do if all that you have is text), which I think will make a "statement" presentation.
That I could get this out while working on a contracted book (for Schiffer Books) is to me absolutely amazing! The good word for the day - as authors, we can make things happen!

Poor Mrs. Ciavelli - this would be her lonely future after the heist. One of my favorite movies, not least for its spare and bleak realist viewpoint, but Jean Hagen's work here was exemplary and human - between this film and "Singin' In The Rain" she should've gotten a couple statuettes. Every part was perfectly acted, and Monroe and Calhern were pitch-perfect together - she played well off his performance, and it's my favorite Calhern part as well. "You big banana-head" never seemed lovelier coming out of a girl's mouth. ;-) It's also remarkably true to Burnett's novel, even hinting at Doc's nasty vice a little.

Vanwall, couldn't agree more, Hagen is phenomenal! I love her talking to Hayden while her eyelash comes off. Great and in many ways underrated movie all around. The confrontation between Hayden and Dexter is excellent too. I'm always surprised that this one doesn't get talked about more...

I guess this isn't specific to the Bombcast, but it's the only stream I listen to on my phone and I don't frequent any android boards, so I'm asking you guys.
I have a 45 minute drive to work and the same back home at least twice a week and I've gotten to where I prefer listening to the guys talk over listening to music, so I stream it through my phone into the car stereo. The only problem is the stupid built in streaming app that launches from the browser won't let me start the stream midway, so on the way home, I have to start at the beginning and then scan forward to where I left off in the morning. Also the timing on the scan is off and it says I'm an hour in when I get around the 20 minute point. On top of all that if the phone falls asleep and I wake it up at any point, it quits the streaming app and forgets where I was.
I tried Google Play's app and not only does it do the same, it has problems listing the Bombcasts in any kind of chronological order, so it's pointless.
I don't want a million "Android sucks" replies and I'm not likely to change phones any time soon. Does anyone know a way around this? An app I could get that's better at dealing with streams? I suppose downloading it would probably solve the problem, but it seems like there should be a simpler solution.

Central America has an area of 524,000 square kilometers (202,000 sq mi), or almost 0.1% of the Earth's surface. As of 2009, its population was estimated at 41,739,000.
Central America is currently undergoing a process of political, economic and cultural transformation that started in 1907 with the creation of the Central American Court of Justice. In 1951 the integration process continued with the signature of the San Salvador Treaty, which created the ODECA, the Organization of Central American States. However, the unity of the ODECA was limited by conflicts between several member states.
Disability in Mexico:
Mexico, officially known as the United Mexican States, is a federal constitutional republic in North America. It is bordered on the north by the United States; on the south and west by the Pacific Ocean; on the southeast by Guatemala, Belize, and the Caribbean Sea; and on the east by the Gulf of Mexico. Covering almost 2 million square kilometers (over 760,000 sq mi), Mexico is the fifth-largest country in the Americas by total area and the 14th largest independent nation in the world. With an estimated population of 111 million, it is the 11th most populous country and the most populous Hispanophone country on Earth.
According to the general census of population and housing in the year 2000; there was 1,795,000 people with a disability in Mexico, which represents 1.8% of the population. Only 15% of people with a disability between the ages of 15 and 29 have an education. The legal standing of disability rights in Mexico is contradictory. A Federal Act for Persons with Disabilities is currently under legislative consideration, and Mexico has been very active in United Nations attempts to create a Comprehensive and Integral International Convention to Promote and Protect the Rights and Dignity of Persons with Disabilities. However, much current legislation lacks regulations, and compliance is a problem. Moreover, awareness of disability rights is low among both people with and without disabilities.

Out of state pro se. The commiss found in my favor so defense objected and now the judge wants a hearing set for aug 31st. Been trying to find rep to handle but looks like I will be flying out to rep myself
The objection should set forth why the case should not be exempt from arbitration. Frequently, the issue stems from the value of the case. Depending on the type of case you should be prepared to show why the case is valued above $50,000.00 dollars by showing medical and lost wages. If the case is truly a civil rights violation you should also be prepared to support the basis of the cases or the basis that you previously submitted to the commissioner.

Breach of contract duty
On a breach of contract you need to show that you might be entitled to a sum of $50 K or more would restore the injured party to the economic position they expected from performance of the promise or promises (known as an "expectation measure" or "benefit-of-the-bargain" measure of damages).
Breach of tort duty
Damages in tort are generally awarded to place the claimant in the position that would have been taken had the tort not taken place, in your case it must be in excess of $50k. Damages in tort are quantified under two headings: general damages and special damages.
In personal injury claims, damages for compensation are quantified by reference to the severity of the injuries sustained (see below general damages for more details). In non-personal injury claims, for instance, a claim for professional negligence against solicitors, the measure of damages will be assessed by the loss suffered by the client due to the negligent act or omission. Financial losses are usually simple to quantify but in complex cases which involve loss of pension entitlements and future loss projections, the instructing lawyer will usually employ a specialist expert actuary or accountant to assist with the quantification of the loss.
General damages
General damages, sometimes styled hedonic damages, compensate the claimant for the non-monetary aspects of the specific harm suffered. This is usually termed 'pain, suffering and loss of amenity'. Examples of this include physical or emotional pain and suffering, loss of companionship, loss of consortium, disfigurement, loss of reputation, loss or impairment of mental or physical capacity, loss of enjoyment of life, etc.[3] This is not easily quantifiable, and depends on the individual circumstances of the claimant.
General damages are generally awarded only in claims brought by individuals, when they have suffered personal harm. Examples would be personal injury (following the tort of negligence by the defendant), or the tort of defamation.

A study titled 'The Rising CCO', which was released on January 24, 2008, identifies a strong correlation between a company's corporate communications organisation and the company's ranking on Fortune magazine's 'World's Most Admired Companies' list.
Specifically, the study finds that the professional background, communications priorities, and inter-organisational relationships of the executive who leads the company's corporate communications department – commonly referred to as the Chief Communications Officer (CCO) – are all meaningful indicators of the ability of a corporate communications organisation to make a positive impact on a company's reputation.
'The Rising CCO' compares responses from communications officers in the 'World's Most Admired Companies' with those in 'contender companies'. The 141 survey participants were top corporate communications executives from Fortune 500 companies in the US and Europe.
The survey, which was conducted by global executive search firm Spencer Stuart and global public relations firm Weber Shandwick with KRC Research, examines the changing role of today's CCO.
"In a fast-paced and dynamic business environment, communications officers are increasingly seen as a business partner for the CEO and leadership team in the stewardship of a company's reputation," said George Jamison, Corporate Communications Practice Leader at Spencer Stuart.
"CCOs are expected to create value and mitigate risks for the corporation by developing innovative strategies to proactively communicate with a company's myriad stakeholders," he added.
"Our research identifies how the corporate communications function can be a critical force in driving a company's reputation in good times and bad. With the right organisational structure and partnership at the top, the best CCOs can significantly contribute to building shareholder value and corporate reputation," said Dr Leslie Gaines-Ross, Chief Reputation Strategist at Weber Shandwick, and leading corporate and CEO reputation expert.

On appeal from the State Board of Education No. 47-06.
Per curiam.
Submitted: September 16, 2009
Before Judges Cuff and C.L. Miniman.
The State-Operated School District of the City of Paterson (School District) appeals from a final decision of the State Board of Education (the State Board)*fn1 affirming the findings of misconduct of Ardeena Long, a teacher in the School District, and imposing a six-month suspension, loss of pay, and loss of increments for two years rather than removal as determined by the Commissioner of Education (Commissioner). The School District argues that the State Board decision is inconsistent with the findings of fact and public policy. We affirm.
Long commenced her employment with the School District in the 1980-81 school year as an English teacher. During the 1985-86 school year, while assigned to East Side High School, she was suspended for five days. At the conclusion of that school year, she was transferred to another school and no other disciplinary proceedings were filed until the charges filed in January 2006 for incidents that occurred at the beginning of the 2004-05 school year.
In the 2000-01 school year, Long was assigned to a special alternative high school operated by the School District. Several incidents occurred between September 8, 2004, and October 5, 2004, that led the School District to file charges and to seek to remove Long, a tenured teacher, from her teaching position. The January 19, 2006 Statement of Charges alleged insubordination, leaving her class unattended, conduct unbecoming a teacher, dishonesty, theft of district property, conduct of personal business during instructional time, improper entry into supervisor's personal portfolio, improper taking of supervisor's personal material, possession of stolen items, dishonesty during the investigation, and unwillingness to cooperate in the investigation. The matter was transferred to the Office of Administrative Law as a contested case and, following a five-day hearing, an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) rendered an Initial Decision in which she sustained seven of the fifteen charges and part of two other charges.
The ALJ prefaced her analysis of the evidence and the governing law with the following observation:
It is clear that the relationship between Ms. Long and Mr. Moody [the principal of the special alternative high school to which Long was assigned] deteriorated rapidly in September 2004. It can be gleaned from the testimony that, prior to the 2004-2005 school year, the parties maintained a strained, but working, relationship. However, this bubbled over immediately at the start of the 2004-2005 school year. It was apparent from the testimony that the two main characters in this case, Ms. Long and Mr. Moody, had entirely different philosophies and orientations. Ms. Long was from the "old school," rigid in her approach and set on "going by the book." Mr. Moody was more experimental and did not necessarily know all the rules and regulations that govern school administration. Neither party behaved admirably in dealing with the other; the situation soon deteriorated into a storm of memos filled with recriminations. It is in this context that the charges against Ms. Long must be judged.
The ALJ proceeded to find that Long entered her principal's file cabinet, removed, copied and replaced material about her in a personnel file, but when confronted, denied that she had done so. Therefore, the ALJ sustained the charge of dishonesty in Charge 4.
The ALJ also found that Long was responsible for the removal of the sign-out book and sustained the charge of theft in Charge 6. The ALJ found that Long did not leave her classroom unattended in order to make personal photocopies but did at some time during the school day make personal photocopies. Therefore, the ALJ partially sustained Charge 7. The ALJ also found that Long conducted personal business on her computer during instructional time (Charge 8) and that Long improperly opened her supervisor's personal portfolio, and removed her supervisor's notes of her observation of Long's performance in the classroom (Charges 9 through 12).
The ALJ found that Long did not commit an act of insubordination by objecting to another preparation that was not required under her contract (Charge 1), that Long did not leave students unattended because no students were in the room (Charge 2), that Long did not permanently remove any item from her personnel file (Charge 3), and that Long had a right to have a union representative present at a meeting requested by Moody and her emotional state precluded completion of a report requested by Moody (Charge 5). The ALJ also found that the School District failed to submit sufficient evidence to support its charge that Long committed an act of insubordination that was an act of unbecoming conduct by failing to cooperate in an investigation of the charges against her (Charge 13). Finally, the ALJ found that Long could not be considered insubordinate when she refused to meet with a union representative because she had a right to refuse to participate in the grievance process (Charge 14).
In fashioning a penalty, the ALJ noted that the two theft charges involved the theft of the sign-out book and a supervisor's notes and pre-observation report. The ALJ also recognized that Long lied when she denied entering Moody's file cabinet and denied making copies of personal material. In addition, the ALJ questioned the credibility of Long's version of her interaction with the supervisor sent to her classroom to conduct regular observations of her teaching performance. The ALJ concluded that Long has difficulty taking instruction and direction from superiors whose experience and authority she questions. Nevertheless, the acts were limited to her interaction with other professionals in the school and did not involve or have a negative impact on the students assigned to her classroom. Furthermore, the only discipline imposed in her long career had occurred in 1985. While her dishonesty represented by one act of theft and several instances of lack of candor within a relatively short period of time were serious, the ALJ recommended a six-month suspension without pay.
The Commissioner accepted the findings of fact but disagreed with the recommended penalty. Stating that the ALJ "inexplicably concludes that these charges do not rise to the level so as to warrant the loss of her tenured position," the Commissioner noted that the School District had proven multiple charges of unbecoming conduct that amply demonstrated her unfitness to discharge her duties as a teacher. The Commissioner observed that the import of even a single act of theft should not turn on the value of the stolen item. Characterizing Long's dishonesty as flagrant and not ascribable to a momentary lapse or an impulsive indiscretion, the Commissioner concluded that Long "is either incapable of recognizing truth or ...

Would you date someone who had a good heart and treated you well, but you aren't physically attracted to them? Like, nothing about them physically appealed to you in any way. Yes or no? And why?
- NoVote A
- YesVote B
Most Helpful Guy
Nope, I need physical attraction as well as emotional attraction.
I figure attraction works with a two part process.
As far as the physical side is concerned...
There is a general level that a girl needs to hit for me to find her attractive or in the dateable range. (Can be labeled perhaps as "standards") Otherwise, I remain unnattracted romantically. This is where the friendzone comes in. Basically, if a girl is emotionally attractive but physically unnattractive, they become a great friend but nothing more.
However, once the certain level is reached, the main thing becomes emotional attraction. Once one reaches the certain level, whether they barely reach it or surpass it, they're in the clear for this part.
So no, I wouldn't date someone I wasn't attracted to at all, but they'd be friendzoned. I simply can't really feel a romantic connection to someone I'm not physically attracted to. I'd pursue more so a friendship with them. :) I don't think I have too high and impossible standards, but I still have some level of standards nonetheless.32|10|0
You couldnt have said it any better!👌👌
Most Helpful Girl
It's important to determine if physical attraction is important to you AND to the other person. It's not fair to assume they would be okay knowing you aren't physically attracted to them, but would date them anyway. I'd honestly be offended and wouldn't want someone to date me if they didn't find me physically attractive. But that's my preference.22|00|0


text: I was watching Hogan's turn at BATB and this was a comment on it or words to similar effect "They should have turned him 4-5 years ago, now instead of shock people will simply say about damn time. Don't expect anything big from a Cena heel turn. " Is this correct or will the turn shock the world still? I've let my opinions on this be known before and I still believe it's the biggest story left in American wrestling, the elements are there for a Hulk style turn but with a more ferocious backlash already occurring to his character than Hogan ever had.

David Merkel, who writes the Aleph Blog , isn't buying into the enthusiasm surrounding China these days. Its Shanghai stock exchange composite index has risen more than 75 per cent this year and the authorities reported on Thursday that the economy grew by 7.9 per cent in the second quarter. Slowdown? What slowdown?
However, Mr. Merkel is concerned that China may have created what he calls a "lending bubble." He explains:
"What seems to be happening is that the powers that be in China are encouraging banks to lend aggressively. Firms in China aren't finding a lot of opportunities in export markets, so they build up inventories 'that they know they will need eventually.' Financial counterparties and individuals speculate on financial assets like real estate and stocks as they find cheap financing available."
He's not just thinking out loud here. He's moving money away from export-driven sectors that are driven by Chinese demand, such as commodities, and instead embracing steady-she-goes utilities.Report Typo/Error
