Toronto, Canada's largest city and it's cultural and entertainment hub, makes not only for a great weekend escape for adults, but also for families traveling with tweens and teens. Plus it's less than two hours by air from Chicago! With so many fun options - from the walking on the edge of the tallest freestanding structure in the world to sleeping - literally - with the sharks, Toronto is the perfect spot for a family travel adventure. Here are seven must-dos for families visiting Toronto with tweens and teens.
Explore the city by bicycle. Toronto's bike sharing network, BIXI, gives you 24/7 access to a bicycle, perfect for exploring Toronto's fascinating neighborhoods. Take a bike when you need one and leave it at any station when you arrive at your destination. First, you have to subscribe or acquire 24 or 72-hour access to use the service (about $5 per short-term subscription). Take out a bike as many times as you want for 30 minutes or less with no additional fees; usage fees for longer trips apply. Check out this Toronto Bike Map, which shows on and off-street bikeways, suggested routes and connections, bicycle lockers, rental and shop locations and other important information about cycling.
Walk along the edge of the CN Tower. The iconic CN Tower defines the city's skyline and is now home to one of the biggest urban adventures in the world: EdgeWalk . Participants are whisked 116 stories off the ground via elevator. Once they reach the top, they don orange jumpsuits and bright yellow harnesses and walk, hands-free, along the edge of the CN Tower - 1,136 feet above the ground! Come prepared to face your fears and enjoy the stunning view. Edge walkers must be at least 13 years of age.
Savor a Poutine pizza. Poutine, perhaps Canada's most famous dish, is even better when it's served atop a crispy pizza.Bannock, a casual restaurant featuring Canadian comfort food, features a to-die-for Poutine pizza: a savory pizza crust topped with french fries, a light gravy-like sauce, cheese curds and crispy roasted duck. Save room for sour cream doughnuts for dessert.
Sleep with the sharks at Ripley's Aquarium. More than 16,000 marine animals live in this brand new 135,000-square-foot aquarium at the base of the CN Tower. This is your chance to get up close and personal with marine life. You can pet a friendly shark, watch jellyfish magically change colors and crawl through an "underwater" tube surrounded by sea life. Extend the fun by taking part in a family sleepover, offered on Saturday nights about once or twice a month. Your evening will include a hands-on program, exclusive access to the aquarium, an evening snack, breakfast and your "accommodations" in a shark tunnel (you supply a sleeping bag and pillow). Age four and up are welcome to attend (children must be accompanied by a paying adult).
Enjoy an acoustic brunch at the Gladstone Hotel. The Gladstone Hotel is an art-focused, historic boutique hotel centered in funky West Queen West neighborhood. Every Sunday the hotel's hip Melody Bar features an Acoustic Family Brunch from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Dine on pancakes, eggs, sausage, bacon - all the best brunch fixins' - while you enjoy some of the finest bluegrass musicians in town at a kid-friendly volume. Dancing is encouraged!
Get your laugh on at Toronto's Second City. Second City specializes in sketch comedy and improv and its resident company in Toronto guarantees a good laugh. While some of the material may be a bit too sophisticated for younger tweens or teens, older teens will be wowed by the company's creativity and flash comedy. Second City in Toronto even has a Teen Conservatory - an improv school just for teens.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: September 21, 2006
CONTACT: Campaign Press Office
(603) 626-5300
(Manchester, NH) – Today the U.S. House of Representatives is voting on legislation that will toughen penalties for illegal border tunnels (H.R. 4830), allow the Department of Homeland Security to detain dangerous illegal aliens beyond six months (H.R. 6094), and reaffirm the authority of state and local law enforcement to investigate, apprehend and transfer to federal custody illegal aliens (H.R. 6095).
"I strongly support these measures to protect our borders and to give our local law enforcement authorities the tools they need toprotect our communities and enforce immigration laws," said Congressman Jeb Bradley.
"I disagree with my opponent, Carol Shea-Porter, who said on August 21 in the Laconia Citizen that 'the immigration controversy is to distract us from a war gone wrong and other administration failures.' In my view, the events of September 11 have highlighted the vulnerability of our nation's borders. Strengthening homeland security is vital and is one of my top priorities. I have supported many measures intended to secure our nation's borders and reduce the threat thatillegal immigration poses to our nation," said Bradley.
Since September 11, 2001, 38 illegal border tunnels have been discovered. One of those tunnels that extended from California to Mexico was found containing two tons of marijuana.
On April 24 in Foster's Daily Democrat, Carol Shea-Porter said "the government needs to exercise some compassion and the government should take a closer look at the companies hiring illegalimmigrants and exploiting them."
"My views and those of Carol Shea-Porter's on illegal immigration are very different. In my view, illegal immigration hurts taxpayers and hurts immigrants who have to come to this country legally. I will continue to work in Congress to keep our borders secure," concluded Bradley.

Katashi Uchiha had created this technique to keep his and Yuuka Uchiha's identities as Uchiha's a secret. This is a technique that is simply followed up by all of his Genjutsu's that use his Sharingan as a usage.
The user will use this technique when they have trapped their opponent in a Genjutsu. It erases their memory of ever even seeing the user of this technique and their partners. When the victim is under another Genjutsu the user will look upon their mind and rid of every memory of them and their partners. When the user uses this technique, the Genjutsu that the victim had been placed under them will also be erased from their memory as soon as it ends, however, the damage dealt to the victim will stay with them.
The victim will also have nightmares of the Genjutsu they where palced under before this Genjutsu took place. Meaning that the already placed brain trauma will come back to them every time they sleep for about a week or two, depending on the users skill level. If the nightmares last long enough, the victim will go insane just not from the nightmares but from the lack of sleep they will experience will add on top of the brain trauma.

Phil Mickelson Lawsuit
February 12, 2012 by staff
Phil Mickelson Lawsuit, Golfer Phil Mickelson has won a lawsuit against a Canadian Internet provider to obtain the identity of a person who posted online comments that he calls "highly defamatory."
A Montreal lawyer for the American athlete said Thursday a Quebec Superior Court judge granted a court order Monday to force Quebec-based provider Videotron to release the identity and co-ordinates of the author of several "vexatious statements" posted on a Yahoo! website.
The "vicious" comments, according to Mickelson's motion, suggested he has an illegitimate child and that his wife has affairs.
"The statements have profoundly shocked the plaintiff and constitute deliberate and persistent attacks on his impeccable reputation," the golfer's court documents show.
The individual used the pseudonyms "fogroller" and "longitude" to post comments.
Investigation established the person is a subscriber of Videotron Internet service.

In the Boston metropolitan area, walkable urbanism adds value. On average, all of the product types studied, including office, retail, hotel, rental apartments, and for-sale housing, have higher values per square foot in walkable urban places than in low-density drivable locations. These price premiums of 20 to 134 percent per square foot are strong indicators of pent-up demand for walkable urbanism.
Walkable urban places are now gaining market share over drivable locations for the first time in at least half a century in hotel, office and rental apartment development. This is good news for people moving to those locations, since households in walkable urban places spent less on housing and transportation (43 percent of total 5household budget) than households in drivable locations (48 percent), primarily due to lower transportation costs. In addition, property tax revenues generated in walkable urban places are substantially higher than in drivable locations on a per acre basis.
Previous research has demonstrated the correlation between walkable urban places and both the education of the metropolitan work force and the GDP per capita. The current research confirms this finding: for example, since 2000, 70 percent of the population growth of young, educated workers has occurred in the walkable urban places of the Boston region.
Despite the strong momentum toward a more walkable urban future for the region, there are challenges and causes for concern. In many walkable urban places, proximity to transit is a major requirement for households and employers. However, increasing congestion in the core transit system and system fragility in the face of extreme events (such as was experienced during the blizzards of 2015) diminish the value of the system and present substantial risks that may deter investors. As a result, public sector investments in MBTA capacity and resiliency are prerequisites for the billions of dollars of private sector capital seeking to flow into walkable urban places over the coming decades.
Public transit, especially rail transit, activates walkable urbanism's potential for adding real estate value, and as this report demonstrates, that potential is ample. Therefore, policymakers must weigh the costs of funding transit against its power to increase tax revenues. With the right value capture tools in place, the increased value that transit supports could be used to fund at least a portion of the system's maintenance and future expansion.
We should also be concerned that, given the flow of capital into walkable urban places and the price premiums, the affordability of these places may be diminished. The resulting increased displacement of low-income residents to less accessible suburban locations would likely have substantial negative impacts on social equity, the environment and opportunity. As a result, it is critical to establish policies that will preserve existing affordable housing in walkable urban places and leverage private sector investments to enhance opportunities for disadvantaged families to live in high opportunity/high accessibility places. However, the ultimate solution to high housing and commercial costs is more walkable urban inventory, which will occupy less than 10 percent of the metro area's landmass. This new inventory will eventually drive down land costs, the primary reason for the price premiums.
This report is published by the Center for Real Estate and Urban Analysis at the George Washington University School of Business and the Northeastern University Dukakis Center for Urban and Regional Policy, with the assistance of the Metropolitan Area Planning Council. This research was done in conjunction with Cushman and Wakefield, a Leading Global Real Estate Advisor, and LOCUS: Responsible Real Estate Developers and Investors, a program of Smart Growth America.

On Tuesday, Salman Khan's younger sister, Arpita Khan, took to Twitter to lash out against a famous multinational high-street brand's outlet in the city.
Veteran actor Manoj Kumar turns 76 today. But his family is sceptical about planning a celebration at home for his birthday as Kumar is still in the hospital. The actor was admitted when he complained of pain in his gall bladder on Sunday night.
Emraan Hashmi and Kangana Ranaut will pair up again in filmmaker Karan Johar's next production, Unglee, which is being directed by Rensil D'Silva. And we've been told that the two actors have been working out together for their respective roles.
As this global frenzy shows no sign of settling, we take a look at some of the most high-profile kids in Bollywood. Their names might not have set the bookies' schedules ablaze, but they did make headlines, earn Twitter handles and develop impressive fan bases within just hours of their birth.
Raveena Tandon might not be a box-office hit, but the actress is lighting up screens at international film festivals, while raising the bar for Indian cinema.
Actor Akshay Kumar's next film, Boss, will have a club song that is being produced on a big budget. Titled Party All Night, the song is being made on an ambitious scale, and the producers are sparing no efforts to make it a chartbuster.
From a single mother to a sex symbol, actor Vidya Balan has portrayed a range of characters on the big screen and says acting allows you to live another person's world.
Actor Sanjay Dutt, who will next be seen in Apoorva Lakhia's Zanjeer, is essaying the role of Sher Khan, earlier played by legendary actor Pran.
Actor Vinay Pathak, often seen playing light-hearted characters in films like Chalo Dilli, Dasvidaniya, and Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, says one gets typecast from his or her first film itself.
He is already busy with back-to-back biggies (Once Upon A Time In Mumbai Dobaara (OUATIMD) followed by Gori Tere Pyaar Mein (GTPM) and Milan Talkies. And now, we hear that Imran Khan is set to bag another exciting project — Vikramaditya Motwane's next.

Happy with this refurb machine purchase
I was a bit nervous to purchase a refurbished unit, but I knew that this would be a secondary coffee machine for me, not used every day (I have drip coffee daily). It has worked well, I've used it about 10 times. The shell on the top of the unit is uneven down the center seam - I suspect that is why it had been returned to become a refurbished unit. The unevenness is just cosmetic and does not affect the function. Overall I'm happy with this unit and would purchase again.

King Edward I of England is the main antagonist of the 1995 Mel Gibson-directed film, Braveheart. He is nicknamed "Longshanks" for his height over 6 feet, and is depicted as a ruthless, tyrannical, psychopathic control freak. He is also shown to be emotionally and physically abusive to his son, Prince Edward, Prince of Wales.
He was portrayed by the late Patrick McGoohan (who was best known for the role of Number 6 in The Prisoner).
When Longshank learn William Wallace's rebellion, he orders to his son, Prince Edward, to stop Wallace by any means necessary. But, Wallace and his army out victorious at the Battle of Stirling and then sacks the city of York, killing Longshanks' nephew and sending his decapitated head to Longshanks.
Worried by the threat of the rebellion, Longshanks sends his son's wife, Isabella of France, the French king's daughter, to try to negotiate with Wallace, hoping that Wallace will kill her and thus draw his father, the French king, to declare war to Wallace. But, Wallace refuses the bribe sent with Isabella by Longshanks. Then, Longshanks prepares an army to invade Scotland and stop Wallace's rebellion once for all.
Warned of the coming invasion by Isabella, Wallace implores the Scottish nobility to take immediate action to counter the threat and take back the country. Leading the English army himself, Longshanks fights Wallace's army at the Battle of Falkirk where noblemen Lochlan and Mornay betray Wallace. The Scots then lose the battle, and Morrison and Campbell, two friends of Wallace, die at the battle.Wallace then charges toward the departing Longshanks on horseback, to try to kill the king, but he is intercepted by one of the king's lancers, who turns out to be Robert, one of his friend. Remorseful, Robert gets Wallace to safety before the English can capture him.
Longshanks later loses his voice as his health seriously deteriorates and dies in his bed at the end of the movie.

CyteFinder is a small, powerful system for high-throughput rare cell detection and analysis with an integrated module for single cell retrieval from standard microscope slides.
CyteFinder is fast, precise, and automated. It combines a 10x, large field-of-view scan optimized for speed, with an optional 40x re-scan of objects of interest for high-resolution images. It's designed for high-throughput use, capable of scanning a slide in under 12 minutes during standard operation. Its software provides an intuitive analysis and visualization interface, designed to do the heavy lifting for the user by leveraging more than 395 different parameters to locate and identify rare cells of interest, dramatically reducing review time. It's flexible enough to incorporate the use of customer-driven, unique panels of antibodies to characterize rare circulating cells of interest. And when combined with AccuCyte blood separation technology, it has been proven to identify over 90% of rare target cells (see publications).
The CytePicker module is a unique example of RareCyte's innovative engineering. Integrated with the CyteFinder instrument, the CytePicker module enables isolation and downstream analysis of individual, rare cells. It makes advanced single-cell investigation possible in virtually any laboratory by the simple yet specific picking of a single identified cell of interest for further exploration.
CytePicker has a durable needle design that allows for retrieval from many samples. It has a very precise three-dimensional calibration and flow control to repeatedly retrieve and deposit rare cells of interest. Cells can be deposited into RareCyte's flat-bottomed PCR tubes for visual confirmation of retrieval prior to downstream processing. Sophisticated software controls the calibration and operation of the CytePicker needle to minimize user inputs – two clicks to calibrate and retrieve!

How do you align Back Button and Submit button?Asked by mgcaledonian13 on December 13, 2015 at 07:07 AM
I have tried various suggestions posted on the Forum to get this to work I have used the following css :
#form-pagebreak-back_4 {display: none;}
.form-collapse-table {
margin: 0 5%;
.form-pagebreak-back-container{margin-top: -58px;}
This does not seem to work, can you explain why?
The url is just a "test" to see what happens as I use various css that has been quoted.
The back_4 is the id for the field taken from properties #form-pagebreak-back_4, #form-pagebreak-next_4
JotForm Support
You will have to use the following custom CSS codes:
.form-all .form-submit-button {
top: 88px;
position: relative;
Please do not hesitate to get back to us if you need further assistance.
Thanks Welvin
I cleared all the Css that was generated by the Designer and then added the css into the empty editor that you gave me, went into the Designer again and set up all the button colours and the round corners again and had a look at the css afterwards and now see it should have probably gone in after.
.form-all .form-.......
Does all additional css go in after the inspect seperator or does it not matter where it goes.
It all works now, thanks

Hi Willy,
Does all additional css go in after the inspect seperator or does it not matter where it goes.
The additional custom CSS codes added goes after the comment section /* INSPECT SEPARATOR */
Thank you for letting us know all is working now. Let us know how we can be of further assistance.
That is where I went wrong !!

IPC-2581 B1 is in official review process
The IPC-2581 Revision B was passed in fall of 2014. During the adoption of revision B, members identified a few areas that needed additional clarification to avoid multiple iterations of the same element(s). The IPC-2581 consortium's technical team identified the areas that can potentially be mis-interpreted and came up with an update to revision B and is being called revision B1.
The IPC-2581 rev B1 has just entered its second official review phase following the IPC standards revision policies. Providing there are no major issues found, the next step is to approve the 2581 B1 version by official ballot.
Revision B1 updates include.
- More material description types used in the creation of printed wiring boards
- More robust function table, where specific data is targeted to different processes
- Clarification of schema details were also introduced to better describe data sets and reduce interpretation differences
- The function table was also overhauled to improve data requirements for specific steps in the fabrication process that will in turn reduce data clutter and protect company intellectual property.
Research is under way to expand 2581 to include external references, processes for augmentation of data provided by fabrication, assembly, test, and field support. Validation tools are also a general focus to ensure tool providers are following proper protocol which will fall into a certification process. Support for various design technologies such as Rigid-Flex, packaging, and 3D descriptions are also on the table for inclusion into the next revision of IPC-2581.
IPC-2581 Consortium at PCB West 2015
As we have previously stated in our "PCB West 2015" article, the IPC-2581 Consortium will be attending PCB West 2015! Visit us at Booth 610 to speak with a representative of the IPC-2581 Consortium, where we will demonstrate the input and export of IPC-2581 from different tools. The IPC-2581 Consortium will also be hosting a Free Design Session, "An Update on Design Data Transfer Using IPC-2581." Hemant Shah of Cadence Design Systems on behalf of the Consortium will be presenting on Wednesday, September 16th, from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM.

IPC-2581 B1 Update
The 2-16 Product Data Description (Laminar View) Subcommittee (IPC-2581) met in February during the IPC APEX Expo in San Diego CA. At this meeting final details for amendments and document updates as well as slight Schema modifications were addressed. The main focus of the meeting was to focus on an amendment of IPC-2581 Revision B to IPC-2581 Revision B1.
As part of the B1 modification, more descriptions, enumerated type and qualified string enhancements were made to enable adoption of 2581 Revision B without any structural changes to the schema. Examples for enhancements include, but are not limited to items such as more layer use type descriptions (flex type materials, masks, etc.), additional properties for parts and stack-up objects. The IPC-2581 Schema Document was also updated to record the new enhancements, correct spelling, and updated items overlooked between the schema and the document.
Read More: IPC-2581 B1 Update
IPC-2581 is Rapidly Gaining Support In the PCB Design Community
IPC-2581 is rapidly gaining support in the PCB design community as an "intelligent," vendor-neutral format that can bring design data into manufacturing in a single file. The PCB West conference in Santa Clara, California on Sept. 10, 2014 provided an update on this fast-moving standard and the IPC-2581 Consortium that is driving it.

redefine your workspace to boost productivity
redefine your workspace to boost productivity
mail to friend
The spaces we occupy can define who we are and affect how we behave and feel. Businesses increasingly need to consider how the workplace environments they create will influence the performance and productivity of their employees.
Companies like Google lead the way in creating office spaces that allow employees to work hard and play hard. In some offices, there is a putting green, massage chairs and games room with free arcade games. Google's new office in London will feature an open-air swimming pool, an indoor football pitch, a climbing wall and a roof garden.
Not many companies have Google's budget; however with employees spending many of their working hours sitting at the same desk, it's important to allow them the freedom to personalise and optimise their work station.
There is no set formula for designing a productive workspace – one may think a clutteredcluttered space fuels creativity, while others believe that a clear desk facilitates a clear mind. Therefore, it is up to the individual to design his or her workplace to boost their own output.
Here are some simple and effective ways to redefine your workspace to get the most out of your working day:
Clear the clutter
Despite the move towards paperless offices, common sources of clutter still include printed emails, conference papers and business cards.
Embrace new technological tools designed to help manage the amount of paper you shuffle, or try to go completely paperless. From smart phone apps which help you store business cards, to scanners that transfer important receipts and external documents to your computer, there's no reason to have a desk littered with paper that could be stored on your hard drive.
Add splashes of colour
Colour psychology plays an important role in determining people's behaviour and mood. When designing your space, consider what type of mood you're trying to achieve. Do you want to be motivated, happy, relaxed or optimistic?
Blue creates a relaxed mood and encourages concentration, stimulating workers to perform at a higher level.
Green makes people feel refreshed and symbolises nature, evoking a sense of calm.
White is popular because it is light and neutral, appears more spacious, and encourages an optimistic mood.
Red is the most emotionally intense colour that stimulates a faster heartbeat. While it increases energy and has motivational qualities, only splashes of red are recommend for the workplace.
Yellow is the most cheerful colour of all and induces feelings of happiness and boosts morale; however too much can be too bright for the eye to take in.
Personalise your space
Personalising your workspace by adding your own individual touch has been proven to also enhance productivity. A personalised desk reduces stress and makes staff feel more connected, so add your favourite artwork, powerful images, positive quotes or family photos to help boost your mood.
With the pressures of looming deadlines and escalating piles of work, it is easy to neglect your workspace. However taking the time now to create a workspace that makes you feel happy and energised will help boost productivity in the long run.

Psychologist's 'biggest concern' is its effects on children
By Mary Rezac
Photo: A gender-neutral bathroom is seen at the University of California in this 2014 file photo. (Lucy Nicholson, Reuters / CNS)
There are few Catholic ministries that exist today that minister particularly to those struggling with transgenderism and gender dysphoria.
Other than a handful of local ministries, Courage, the Church's outreach to people with same-sex attraction, is one of the few ministries addressing the issue of transgenderism on a national and international level.
"Until recently, pastoral care to individuals who struggle with their sexual identities as male or female has largely occurred at a local and personal level," said a spokesperson for the U.S. Bishops Conference.
"As attention to and awareness of this experience has grown, we are seeing more efforts regionally and nationally to respond in a way faithful to the Catholic understanding of the human person and God's care for everyone."
Part of the problem is the issue of transgenderism and its acceptance in popular culture is so new that mental health experts are still trying to catch up to the trend, said Dr. Gregory Bottaro, a Catholic psychologist with the group CatholicPsych.
"I think the mental health profession hasn't really had time to thoroughly catch up on it, besides those in the field who kind of just flow with the current of whatever is popular in the moment," he said.
But mental health professionals who are willing to follow any current trend are only "furthering the divide" between Catholic and secular practitioners, he added.
At the moment, the biggest concern regarding the popularizing and normalizing of transgenderism is the effect it's having on children, Dr. Bottaro said.
"With kids, it's really important to recognize that their sexual development is so fragile, and the influence of what's popular in the culture needs to be really, strongly filtered and studied and understood," he said.
"The Catholic response is a return to true anthropology – 'male and female he made them' – to understand that our biology and our psychology are not separate things, and so to encourage the development of a curriculum of human nature that is consistent with a true anthropology," he said.
It's not just the Catholic Church that is concerned with the effects of transgenderism on children. In a paper titled "Gender Ideology Harms Children," the American College of Pediatricians lays out specific reasons they are concerned about the popularizing and normalizing of transgenderism among kids.
"A person's belief that he or she is something they are not is, at best, a sign of confused thinking. When an otherwise healthy biological boy believes he is a girl, or an otherwise healthy biological girl believes she is a boy, an objective psychological problem exists that lies in the mind not the body, and it should be treated as such. These children suffer from gender dysphoria," the group said in its paper.
To encourage a child into thinking that "a lifetime of chemical and surgical impersonation of the opposite sex is normal and healthful is child abuse," the college added.
"So while there are biological abnormalities (children born with ambiguous genitalia or an extra chromosome), they're certainly not circumstances to build philosophical systems on, so we see those as abnormalities and anomalies," Dr. Bottaro said.
The U.S. Bishop's Conference referred back to Courage as an example of a ministry that was providing pastoral care and guidance on transgenderism.
Dioceses that have their own chapters of Courage, including Vancouver, to accompany those with same-sex attraction are also "in a good position to help people who have questions regarding their sexual identity as well," the spokesperson said.
Father Philip Bochanski, executive director of Courage International, said the organization will continue to discern how best to serve transgendered persons and their families.
"There seem to be some similarities between the experience of confusion regarding one's sexual identity and the experience of same-sex attraction, but there are also many differences," Fr. Bochanski said.
The Catholic Independent Schools of the Vancouver Archdiocese introduced a gender dysphoria policy in 2014, allowing schools to respond with special accommodation for students who have the condition. The document can be found on the CISVA website.

Can you recall the first time you ever took a bite of delicious, scrumptious bacon? Probably not, but we think this kid might just remember this moment for the rest of his life.
It's something most of us would never even think about until you realize it exists: a drive-thru that can accommodate the deaf.
Last week we shared the viral video of Brick Township mom Su Shtab flipping out after finding a spider in her kitchen.
Some had concerns that we shouldn't have posted the video because it constituted bullying -- a claim I take VERY seriously -- so we went right to the source for a response.
In a video that's now gone viral, a local mom is seen absolutely FREAKING OUT after seeing a spider in her kitchen.
Sometimes kids are just way too awesome.
Watch as one little boy dances his heart out while watching Dirty Dancing, copying Patrick Swayze's moves every step of the way!
The song 'Rude' by Magic! is everywhere, and one singing dad took the time to craft a hilarious response in a video that's since gone viral.
Have you or a grossed out friend seen the video of a packaged fish filet from Costco, complete with a worm crawling in it?
It's supposed to serve as a 'warning' about the freshness of the store's food...but...it's leaving out some important info.
Kevin Bacon is addressing Millennials in a great new video explaining how hard life was in the 1980s.
Actor Seth Rogen appeared before the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee to testify about the impact Alzheimer's Disease has had on his family, and his speech is very cool.
This video will blow your mind...and have you wondering, 'how the heck did he DO that?'
Apocalypse now.
Remember back in 1992 when a young man with an epic mullet sang about his 'Achy Breaky Heart'? Billy Ray Cyrus is back...with his song...and he's gone hip-hop.
You ever watch an interview so awkward you wish you could just help the reporter hide?
One reporter probably wishes he called in sick after confusing Samuel L. Jackson for someone else...and then getting ripped apart for it!

Catch-22 at the Fed
Money and Markets
Dear Roy,
Martin here, with an urgent pre-Fed update.
It's Monday morning, just 24 hours before Ben Bernanke and the Fed meet to decide whether or not to raise interest rates for the eighteenth time.
Wall Street is on pins and needles. The whole world is watching. And perhaps more so than ever before in recent memory, no one at the Fed -- not even Bernanke himself -- seems to know what to do.
Reason: He's caught in a Catch-22 dilemma of unprecedented dimensions, squeezed from two sides.
On one side, Bernanke is squeezed by the slumping economy. Until just a few months ago, the economy still had momentum. Now, suddenly, housing is busting ... GDP growth has plunged ... new jobs are disappearing ... and unemployment is rearing its ugly head.
On the other side, Bernanke is plagued by surging inflation. You'd think 17 consecutive rate hikes would have been enough to nip the inflation in the bud. But the rate hikes were too slow, too little, and too darn late. Result: Even if you exclude rapidly surging energy and food costs, we now have the worst inflation in 11 years.
Here's the dilemma:
If Bernanke decides to raise rates tomorrow, it could break the back of the already-hobbled housing market and tip the economy into recession.
If he decides not to raise rates, it could be the last straw for the U.S. dollar, inviting out-of-control inflation.
Sinking Sectors
All this is not exactly a good omen for stock investors.
Sure, the Dow Jones Industrial Average may be holding up. But major sectors are sinking.
Take the Dow Jones Transportation Average, for instance.
One hundred and twenty-two years ago, when Charles Dow first devised his averages, he focused on transportation companies -- the big railroads. They were the ones that dominated the stock market.
Indeed, back in those days, few industrial stocks were publicly traded, and even those few were considered highly speculative.
So contrary to what most people think, Dow's first index wasn't the industrial average. It was composed mostly of railroads, and he didn't create a separate industrial index until two years later.
Today, the Dow Jones Transportation Average includes not only railroads, but also major shipping companies and air freight carriers. But its importance is grossly underestimated ... and it's plunging.
The facts: Just three months ago, on May 10th, the Dow Transports reached an intraday high of 5,038.58.
But on Friday, they closed at 4,378.56, down 14.1%.
That's no small decline. If the Dow Jones Industrial Average had fallen at the same rate, it would now be trading at 10,175, or 1,065 points lower than its closing level on Friday.
Not convinced the Dow Transports are a big factor?
Fine. Then consider the Nasdaq. If any market has been at the forefront of investor attention in the last 10 years, it has been the tech-heavy Nasdaq.
The Nasdaq Composite Index reached this year's peak of 2,738 in April. Still a long way from its all-time high in 2000, but high enough to get lots of investors exuberant.
Now, it's back down to 2,085, off nearly 24% from this year's high.
Had the Dow Jones Industrials plunged that far from its peak, it would now be at 8,916. That's a whopping 2,325 points lower than the Dow closed on Friday.
Anyone who doubts the critical importance of these two markets need only look back at Charles Dow's original theories.
His view: All the major sectors of the economy are tied together. If one falters, it's a bad sign. If two falter, it's worse. And right now, you have at least two that are clearly running into serious trouble -- transportation and technology.
Indeed, these falling sectors are now being squeezed by the very same forces that are squeezing the Fed: They're impacted by a slowdown in consumer spending. They're getting caught by rising interest rates. They're getting slammed by the sky-high cost for energy and raw materials.
But if you think these averages are looking ugly, wait till you see the stocks that are caught in the crosshairs of investors looking to get out of the market while the getting's still good ...
Individual Stocks
Falling Like Flies
Just last Friday, the shares of Career Education Corp. (CECO) plunged a whopping 29.3%, and all it took to trigger the slide was one bad second-quarter report.
Excluding an $85 million impairment charge and including the cost for expensing stock options, the company still earned 36 cents per share.
Sure, that was a disappointment for analysts, given that they expected about 49 cents per share.
But for a stock to lose almost a third of its value in just one day is not a good sign for its industry ... or for the market as a whole.
Meanwhile, Friday's plunge in a leading biotech stock, Icagen Inc. (ICGN), makes CECO's plunge look like a joy ride by comparison.
Until May, Icagen was holding firmly between about $6 and $9 per share.
Now look! Friday, it closed at $1.12, down a whopping 73.6% in just one day of trading, and off nearly 90% from its high of the year.
Big Players Also
Getting Hit Hard
If this were happening strictly in less prominent companies, it would be of no big concern.
But some of the most widely-held companies are also feeling the pain. Just in the last three months ...
Ebay has plunged 25.2% ...
Legg Mason is off 26.1% ...
Harrah's Entertainment is also down 26.1% ...
Boston Scientific has fallen 27.2% ...
Qualcomm is off 32.6% ...
Corning is down 35.3%, and ...
Broadcom has plunged a shocking 42.4%!
We see stocks falling like flies not only in technology and transportation, but also in housing and construction ... employment and education ... gambling and entertainment.
More and more, the broad stock averages that are still holding up are giving you a misleading, distorted image of the real world.
Reason: A big portion of their apparent strength is due to oil, energy and natural resources.
Indeed, when you look at the Dow Industrials and the S&P 500, you might think the broad market is doing relatively well. Not true. Once you subtract oil and energy, you can see these broad averages are also slumping.
Most Investors
Still Fast Asleep
Despite the growing evidence, most investors still don't get it. They don't understand how you can have a slumping economy and surging inflation at the same time. But as we've been telling you for many months, you can. And, indeed, that's exactly what we're looking at right now.
Wall Street's response on Friday to the jobs report is a classic example.
When the news first came out that we had the worst unemployment rate in five months, investors actually rejoiced. They figured:
"Good. This means the Fed will have an excuse not to hike interest rates on Tuesday."
But by the end of the day, the reality began to sink in:
fewer jobs = sinking economy = sinking profits
That was the first disappointment.
Then, to add insult to injury, investors also woke up to the fact that, even while unemployment was up, wage inflation was also heating up!
That was the second disappointment.
The biggest disappointment of all, however, is bound to come in the weeks ahead:
Even if Fed Chairman loses his nerve on Tuesday and fails to raise interest rates, the markets will push interest rates higher on their own, with or without him.
Gold, silver and other metals will take off to the upside.
Oil and other commodities will roar.
The dollar will collapse.
Inflation will take off.
And in that kind of hot environment, bond investors will run for cover, driving bond prices sharply lower and interest rates sharply higher.
What to Do
Don't wait for millions of other investors to discover what you already know. By that time, they will have started to unload their shares in a big way, and it could be too late for you to get out of your vulnerable stocks at a still-decent price.
Instead, start to take action ahead of time: Sell stocks that are vulnerable to:
* Surging energy and commodity prices
* Higher borrowing costs
* A bust in the housing industry, and
* Slower consumer spending
Meanwhile, hold the stocks in sectors that stand to benefit the most from inflation: Mining, energy, and other natural resources.
Some investors say they can't sell because they don't want to take a loss.
I think that's baloney. If your stock is selling for less than what you paid for it, you already have a loss, and you can't turn back the clock.
Others investors say they can't sell because they don't want to take a profit ... and pay the taxes to Uncle Sam. That's also baloney. No matter when you sell, those taxes will be due. So it's irrelevant to your decision today.
My recommendation: If you believe things have turned sour -- or are about to do so -- the only rational approach to the market is to act on your belief. Period.
Suppose You Still
Want to Hold On?
Then, be sure to buy some "crash insurance" -- protection against stocks in your portfolio that may be vulnerable to either a slumping economy or surging inflation.
No, you can't buy crash insurance from your insurance company. Nor would I recommend it even if you could.
Buy you can easily buy a form of crash insurance through your stock broker, online or off. Here are some simple steps to follow ...
Step 1. Make a list of the worst stock market dogs you can find. These are the companies with the lousiest track records, the shakiest financial statements, the worst management.
How do you find them? They're everywhere -- in the news, in the latest list of worst performers for the day or among the stocks with the lowest Weiss ratings at www.WeissWatchdog.com.
Step 2. Check to see if there are options available on the worst dogs. Then look for options designated by a "p" -- for "put options."
Step 3. To better understand how put options work, consider this situation:
You own a home appraised at $250,000 and you need to sell it one year from today. But you're worried. Home prices are falling, and you can't afford to wait a whole year. If you do, you fear you might lose $25,000, $50,000, maybe even more.
So you go to your real estate agent and you say: "I need to lock in the current sale price, or something close to it."
Sure enough, for a fee, he can do that for you. He guarantees that, if he can't sell it at an acceptable price, you can "put it to him." In other words, he'll buy it himself at your price and eat any difference.
That's, in essence, a "put option" contract.
Or consider this example:
You own 100 shares of Microsoft, and it's selling for $25 per share. You're unwilling or unable to sell the shares, but you're worried that in the next six months or so, Microsoft could crash to $10.
So you go to your broker and you say: "I need to lock in the current price, or something close to it."
Sure enough, you can buy put options giving you the right (but not the obligation) to sell 100 shares of Microsoft for $24 per share. If the stock goes higher, you rip up the put option and throw it away. But if the stock plunges to $10, you can put the shares to the seller of the option, and he's going to have to buy your Microsoft shares for $24.
In this kind of a market, that's cheap insurance. It helps you lock in the current value of your shares. And it does not expose you to any risk beyond the modest cost of the options.
Step 4. With money you can afford to risk, consider going beyond protection and using put options as pure profit plays.
In this case, you don't own Microsoft shares. You just buy its put options to profit from its decline.
You buy the same ones as in the previous example -- giving you the right to sell 100 shares of Microsoft at $24 per share. And, as in the previous example, the shares fall to $10.
That's a great position to be in: That means you can buy the 100 shares of Microsoft for $10 each. Then, using your put options, you can turn right around and sell them for $24, giving you a profit of $14 per share.
Or, better yet, you don't have to touch a single share of Microsoft. All you have to do is sell the put option itself. The option may cost you no more than a couple of dollars per share. And in this example, it's probably worth close to $14 per share.
Indeed, with put options, your goal is no different than with any other kind of investment: Buy them low and sell them high. And when stocks crash and burn, it's not uncommon to see the value of their put options surge from, say, $1 or $2 per share to as much as $10, $15 or more.
Good luck and God bless!

No shade, to be honest.
The rationale is just so that we can laugh (and of course, ponder too) on some of the points that will be shared in this brisk post about certain music videos released by our superstars.
1. Who You Epp?
Olamide's sensational and viral hit (as is the fashion of YBNL) fell flat on it's drab behind, the moment the video dropped. It was everything devoid of creativity. It's almost like as if Olamide doesn't care at all to use the good head he has for music, when shooting his music videos. That shxt hurts.
2. Where
Who allowed Tekno to be scripting the plot for his music videos? He has applied this same 'girl meets guy, girl falls for guy' concept in three consecutive music video releases. And to think he wasted all that resources going abroad just to kiss some chic? Please let Flavour show you how it's done jare.
3. Count It All Joy
Joy indeed! With this video, it became clear what exactly Mr 2kay meant by 'count it all joy'. Did you see all the 'joys' in their scantily clad numbers? Were you successful at counting them all or you probably lost count sef? Okay now, we'll see what side Mr 2kay will be standing on the day of crucifix.
4. Standing Ovation
You see ehn, these streets aren't for everybody o. Watching Tiwa Savage go ghetto is one sight I still cannot fathom. Of course, she effortlessly relays this aura of a Disney princess, but it is sure not Cinderella who like Wizkid sang, was the girl wey come from ghetto make am.
5. Ready
Ah. Adekunle fell hand bad bad with this video. Like he went from some sharp genius shown on Orente and Pick Up, then came down to settle for terrible less on Ready. It's as if the low budget concept didn't correctly spell 'DOOM' for him, he needed to read the writing off the wall with tacky fast food and roadside scenes. Dude ain't even ready yet!
6. The Vow
I'll be clear, Mrs Busola Dakolo is an uber-friggin' hot mom who doesn't even stand competition with some of these badly weaned trolls who like to go under the title of vixens. But! She is NOT a video vixen. Timi should please keep certain aspects of his life business in serious check.
7. Dance
It's possible that Flavour didn't realize that Clarence Peters sampled an entire unoriginal concept off another music video, in his own until it dropped and people started to make their thoughts known on the creative theft. If I were in his shoes, I'll just ask for my money back. No jokes.
8. Ferrari
We can forgive the fact that Ferrari was styled awfully much after Johnny but it would have been sensible to keep the video purely western. If it's that he was buying her bell bottoms now, we totally agree with the hamlet setting. But Mama Africa was feeling like the best of both worlds. So her video tells us about the confusion encountered on what they exactly set out to do.
9. Slow Slow
Muno happens to be the fast-rising artiste of 2016, having gathered plenty buzz since his signing to Paul Okoye's Rudeboy Records. He's a fine singer and looks hella good in his videos. But! Slow Slow reminded us a little too much of bad gal Riri's Work whose release came in weeks before. Son, unoriginality can sometimes bury one's career. Remember yours just got started.
10. Oluwa Ni
Aswear, Reeky Tom Tom almost had us totally sold until the bikini clad ladies just had to troll into his video. There's several other ways the Oluwa Ni context could have been represented other than with skin baring ladies. Banks is kuku a badt shiyd, nobody is disputing that, so yes, I really want to know where he'll be standing on crucifixion day. Perhaps Oluwa ni!

Do you disagree with any of the video choices presented in this post? Why not share your thoughts in the section already provided below.

All correct!
Yea I agree how will you be saying oluwa no ni and you have bikini girls all over the place..its a shame bcus the vid wz passing a differnt message all together I tink our artists should take note of that its too bad!
o don't agree wit READY…. Dvideo follows d concept perfectly nd itz sharp nd dope
I def had a P with count it all joy.. Clarence was tired I guess. Just picked up his camera and gals.
Tot he'll line cars in his compound, show his mansion, family and all.
All I saw was s#iT…
I disgree wit muno – slow slow,i dont understand the comparison wit rihanna's work,d choreography is quite difft,d scenes are difft…d make ups are difft as well…the comparison is uncalled for jare…rudeboy was creative wit the video and for adekunle ready,d concept was simple nd lovely
i totally agree except for who you epp and ready!!
Ferrari is the worst
I strongly disagree with the fact that you characterized Busola Dakolo as "not a video vixen." It presents the impression that she was meant to be a video vixen but she was not. The song was written for and dedicated to her so it is only apt that she was the female character. Also, the word vixen is contextually inappropriate as it presents the notion that she is some sexual subordinate figure as represented in hip-hop and other genres of music where they -vixens-are prevalent. Busola was/is not a video vixen because she is and was not meant to be one.
Mr G1 tha'freshmeat
Let's not blame the artiste for d misinterpreted videos, the vid directors shud crucified for that, I don't if u guys can still remember Tiwa's #wanted video, twas totally outta point…yeah? D video directors these days hav been too lazy to work not d artistes.
Reading ur pontification on Mr. 2kay, counting it all Joy, I screamed EEEEEEWWOOOOO in Jim's dialect.Jim is a bad shiyd.
I didn't see any sense in what you said about Standing Ovation. That video was and still amazing. Tiwa did fantastically well there. You dont have to put any bullshit that comes to your head on paper you know.
oh oh dond gree?
I agree with some of ur submissions……not all.
I totally agree wiv u on standing ovation, Ferrari and Oluwa ni. M disappointed in the Oluwa ni video… I neva expererit. For wu yu epp, m nt surprised coz I dnt see any amazing video Olamide has ever had. I lyk d guy buh his vids, a no no. Flavor has always had nice vids, dunno wah went wrong.
watch video n be happy fr reekado for he has seen #oluwani yhu guys just wanna stroke d hommie bt his #gbedu still #deburstbrain

By: David B Williams(Author)
226 pages, b/w illustrations
Naturalist and Seattle native David Williams offers his original perspectives on the wonder and resilience of nature in and around the Northwest's greatest population center. Illustrated by hand-drawn maps, Williams's writings are interesting, intelligent, and challenging at a personal level. He approaches the notion that his beloved city, as hip and urbane as it is, remains a wild place on the Northwest landscape – in the quarried rock of the historical buildings, in the branches of a pocket-sized city park, in the twists and turns of a stream that has been abused by polluters, hedged in by lawns, and buried under expressways. And yet it is a living thing, worthy of rescue. Williams looks beyond the skyline, beyond the postcard views of the Emerald City, and into its wild heart.
" [...] we can learn much about our environment by paying closer attention to bits of nature we pass by everyday."
– Seattle Audubon Society, September 2005
"Best Urban Nature Writer – Williams has hunted up the obscure and notable quirks of the natural world within our city [...]"
– Best of Seattle, August 3-9 2005
"Each chapter [...] features a topic of interest to the hiker-naturalist-historian [...] "
– Washington Trails
"Even if you are not familiar with Seattle [...] there is plenty to relate to in this book."
– The Ledger, September 8, 2005
"For anybody thinking that cities are only concrete, asphalt and grassy lawns, Williams wants you to look again."
– Capitol Hill Times, July 13, 2005
"Messing with mother nature can get you in deep doo-doo."
– The Seattle Times, July 17, 2005
"Reading The Street Smart Naturalist is like suddenly acquiring X-ray vision [...] Every page [...] brought me revelations [...] "
– David Laskin, Author of The Children's Blizzard and Braving the Elements
"Williams' essays demonstrate [...] a keen eye is as useful as an unlimited travel budget in studying the world around you."

Paizo Publishing
|Role-playing games, board games, science fiction, fantasy
|Redmond, Washington
Key people
|Lisa Stevens, Erik Mona, James Jacobs, F. Wesley Schneider, James L. Sutter, Jason Bulmahn
|Pathfinder, Planet Stories
Paizo Publishing is an American publishing company in Redmond, Washington that specializes in game aids and adventures for "the world's oldest fantasy roleplaying game"[1] (Dungeons & Dragons) and its flagship spin-off game and setting, Pathfinder. The company's name is derived from the Greek word παίζω paizō, which means 'I play' or 'to play', and in 2014, the company changed its name to Paizo Inc.[citation needed] Paizo also runs an online retail store selling role-playing games, gaming aids, board games, comic books, toys, clothing and other products, and has an Internet forum community. The current CEO of Paizo is Lisa Stevens.
D&D and Pathfinder[edit]
Paizo formerly produced Dragon and Dungeon magazines,[2] both published under license from Wizards of the Coast. Publisher Erik Mona is former Editor-in-Chief of Dragon. The former Editor-in-Chief of Dungeon is James Jacobs, who is now Creative Director overseeing various Pathfinder accessories. In early 2007, it was announced that the license had lapsed and would not be renewed, effective September 2007.[3][4][5]
Paizo announced on March 18, 2008, that they would be launching the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game.[6] Through the new product line, Paizo would modify, update, maintain, and publish the 3.5 System Reference Document (under Wizards of the Coast's Open Gaming License). The Pathfinder Roleplaying Game would also support Paizo's Pathfinder Chronicles campaign setting. In March 2008 Paizo also announced that it was introducing an organized play program called "Pathfinder Society Organized Play." The program was loosely modeled on the RPGAs "Living" campaigns. It releases 28 scenarios each year (two each month, four in July and August) for members to purchase. Scenarios are short adventures meant to be completed within four to five hours.
Paizo's flagship product line, Pathfinder Adventure Path, continues the Adventure Path concept featured in Dungeon. Additional products set in the Pathfinder campaign setting include Pathfinder Modules, Pathfinder Campaign Setting, Pathfinder Tales Novels, and Pathfinder Player Companion.
Other products[edit]
The company started producing a bimonthly magazine called Undefeated in 2003,[7] and in 2004 resurrected the venerable science fiction title Amazing Stories.[8] The two publications were placed on hiatus in 2005, and finally canceled in 2006.[9]
Other Paizo products include the Titanic Games line of boardgames such as Kill Doctor Lucky,[10] and the Planet Stories line of classic fantasy, science fiction and science fantasy novels.[11]
In May 2016, Paizo announced a new sci-fi roleplaying game, Starfinder, scheduled for release in August 2017.[12]
