Neji/TenTen Rant
Personally I think Neji would either end up with someone we don't know, alone, or TenTen. Why? Because he talks to her the most excluding Hinata-sama. Well it seems I like people paired up because they are teammates. Not necessarily true. Even if we replace Sakura instead of Ino in the beginning, I would still think of Sasuke and Sakura. I do like Naruto and Hinata and they're not on the same team nor Shikamaru and Temari. There is no one else I can think of with Neji. I've seen some NejiSaku for some reason, I don't think I ever seen them talk. Well NejixGuy is also popular but I wonder why. Neji and Sasuke may have the same personality but Sasuke wants to revive his clan again and he can't do that with a guy Unless there's some jutsu or something. Like I said, he'll either end up someone not in the anime, alone, or TenTen. I'm just being realistic, I am not against Yaoi or anything but I just like Neji with TenTen. Hinata would be my next choice not Sakura because he does communicate to her but they're cousins. That's what bothers me but who says one cousin can't love another? Think of Card Captor Sakura, Meilin loves Syaoran despite they're blood cousins. Hinata and Neji bothers me a lot because I would like Hinata to go either with Kiba or Naruto but my next choice would be Neji. For TenTen, if not neji then her other teammate, Lee! If he's over Sakura then he'll go TenTen for comfort. TenTen/Lee is not bad, I have nothing against for it but I would rather like TenTen/Neji. Love triangles? I rather not read those because it would get my hopes up and down but I read those sometimes. Of course if they don't give out a warning, it bothers me but I can tolerate with it. Not flaming of course but it just bothers me a bit
Naruto/Hinata Rant
Obviously, those two are matched for together! If not that Naruto would be with Sakura, Sasuke with no one or Ino, and Hinata would be with either Kiba or Shino. XP Hinata supports Naruto greatly even though he has a great chance of losing. Like with Kiba vs. Naruto, she wanted to cheer for Naruto loudly but Kiba is her teammate and she doesn't want to make Kiba feel bad (Aww..). And against Neji against Naruto, when one of those people were talking badly about Naruto and saying Neji will beat him her face is full of disgust and I bet she wanted to say something to defend about Naruto (But because of her sweet personality she didn't) I'm not big on Naruto and Sakura even when I watch the anime and read the first chapters of the manga. My first opinion of Sakura and Naruto was...too easy. Confused? Well I don't like it how people pairs them up because they are kind of like the main characters. Sasuke's there but Naruto is the MAIN main character and they just pair them up. :/ yeah Naruto has a crush for Sakura but it seems too shallow. There's no true love between them however Hinata for Naruto was no IS true love.
How about Kiba and Hinata?
Eh? Kiba and Hinata? They're ok, they don't make me pull my own hair off. But for me it looks like they have a brother and sister relationship and that's what I see. I mean at epi 148 it looks like Kiba is teasing at her. That was one of my favorite episode because Naruto also describes her as a goddess and she was blushing like a tomato. :D well I gone off track but Kiba and Hinata I'm fine with it. Kiba/Hinata/Naruto is fine too as long as Hinata goes with Naruto and Kiba doesn't go heart broken (He's one of my favorite, I'm a dog person)
Then you must hate Hinata and Shino!
Whoa, I don't hate Hinata and Shino. My friend asked me that do I hate Hinata and Shino but I told him no I don't because I like her shy personality with a silent one. It reminds me too much of my two friends whose name I shall not say. LoL well I like this but not as much as Naruto and Hinata. XP I like Kiba/Hinata/Shino if they're funny but if it serious I guess I would still read it. I would just hope that no hearts would be broken I mean in love triangles there's always someone's heart be broken even if they don't show it.
How about Sasuke and Naruto?
I'm not into Yaoi but I won't flame it. My eyes twitch when I see those two together but I can tolerate with it. Sasuke/Naruto is pretty popular for Yaoi lovers of course. They both already kissed and they spent more time then Naruto and Sakura. Also Naruto tried to save Sasuke many times and Sakura did say "If I can't save him, then only you can Naruto,"Sasuke and Naruto...it's ok...but I don't like it much. Again I'm not into Yaoi, it reminds me too much of Yoh and Ren or Roy and Ed for some reason. I can tolerate not hate
Temari/Shikamaru/Ino Rant (Actually more of a Shikamaru/Ino Rant)
Ino and Sasuke?
Iie! Not Ino and Sasuke! Ahem well don't mind me, but I don't like Ino and Sasuke being together. 'nuff said
Ino and Chouji?
I like this one better then Ino and Sasuke. Well it looks there are many obvious hints of Ino and Chouji and I do like Chouji being with someone. Shikamaru is with Temari, Ino gets sad, Chouji cheers her up! Ya big-boned people rules! (Neh! XP)
Whould you get mad if Shikamaru and Temari hook up?
One of my friends ask me that and I said 'no'. I don't hate itin fact I kinda like it but I perfer Shikamaru and Ino being together. This section is pretty short (hehe, well I don't have that much time) Actually the reason I probably like Ino and Shikamaru then Temari and Shikamaru is that Ino and Shika known each other for a long time and it reminds me too much of Neji and TenTen. Ino and Shika are teammates and so are Ino and Chouji but it reminds me too much of Neji and TenTen. Kekeke...
What about Shikamaru and (Insert other girl's name here)?
Well if it's Sakura, I don't see them together. If it's TenTen, you're not seriously going to ask me that are you? And if it's Hinata, I'll kick your ass. (Feh not really) I think that's all the Kuniochis of Konoha. If there's more email me cause I have a very bad memory
Other pairings I like:
Digimon Season One: Takeru and Hikari (TK and Kari by the way), Taichi and Sora, Mimi and Yamato
Digimon Season Two: None
Digimon Season Three: Ryou and Ruki (Ryo and Rika), Takato and Jeri
Digimon Season Four: Kouji and Izumi, Takuya and Izumi, Kouichi and OC (He's a badass character, he should get a pairing), Chiaki and Katsuharu (There is absolutely no fanfiction of them. ;_; there was a fanfiction of Kouichi and Chiaki but I perfer Katsuharu even though he does seem arragant. These are from Frontier, check them out yourself)
Card Captor Sakura: Eriol and Tomoyo (This should be on the top pairings but surprisingly isn't oO), Syaoran and Sakura (I like the tsubasa chronicles one better)
Shaman King: Already put up Yoh and Anna, Tamao and Horo Horo (This pairing reminds me of Naruto and Hinata), Ren and Pirika (Fans...gotta blame them), Hao and Anna (I love Hao and Anna together but Yoh and Anna are better XP)
FullMetal Alchemist: Winry and Ed, Winry and Al (Don't kill me please but I love Al as a little kid. He's too cute ), Already put up Roy and Riza (OMG I LOVE THAT LAST EPISODE, FULL OF MOMENTS THERE!)
DNangel: Satoshi and Risa (Fans...blame them XP)
Pokemon: Brendan and May (Hoennshipping. That's cool)
Final Fantasy X-2: Rikku and Gippal (This pairing always make me laugh, not in a bad way), Tidus and Yuna (This should belong in FFX pile but eh), Baralai and Paine
Riviera: The Promised Land: Ein and Lina (I love this game! And Lina is so adorable)
Harry Potter: Ron and Hermione (Only pairing I like from HP)

Is there any professional sports league in the world more troubled than Serbia's top soccer division? Yesterday's championship ended in utter confusion, after one side walked off to protest some questionable refereeing. Though I haven't yet seen video of the plays in question, the losing players had every right to be suspicious—Serbia has endured its […]

Whenever a plane I'm on is close enough to its destination that houses and cars appear, I can't help thinking to myself: "If I fell from here, could I survive?" There is something about having a visual sense of the ground that makes a parachute-less airplane jump seem survivable. If those motor vehicles can zip […]

I'm SO excited to be here crashing Jae's blog for the day (and celebrating her 200th post)! Can we all just agree that the girl's got some amazing style? GAH. So fabulous.
Hey there! I'm Kelly… I'm the one in the pic who's not a man or a small child.
I blog over at View Along the Way about our adventures – and misadventures – as we fix up our stinky ol' foreclosure on a teeny tiny budget.
We've been at it for four years now, so I thought I'd share some of the projects we've taken on that have had the biggest impact for the buck.
1. Removing Popcorn Ceilings
Okay friends. I had NO IDEA how much light popcorn ceilings suck out of a room until we took down our popcorn ceilings.
Check out this side-by-side comparison of a small closet before and after we removed the popcorn texture. These photos were taken with the exact same camera settings. Look how much lighter and fresher the one is on the right! Crazy, right?
The good news is that it's SO SUPER easy and virtually free to remove popcorn ceilings, although it's about as messy a project as you can take on. Here's how we removed our popcorn ceilings.
2. Paint
I mean, obviously, right? And since everyone loves a before-and-after – it's not just me, is it? – here's our baby girl's nursery before we bought our house and today:
…Ahhh, that's better. Of course, we did a little more than paint in that room. We also installed front-facing bookshelves, installed DIY crown molding, built a closet organizing system, and added a whimsical pinwheel art installation over the changing table.
But what would all that be without the happy new paint color?
3. Window Treatments
Whoa, hold on there. I am not talking about expensive, custom drapes that run in the thousands of dollars. (That's so, SO far outside my budget.) DIY window treatments make such a huge impact in a room and can look custom for tiny percentage of the price.
And they make a crazy difference both in the form and the function of a room. Here's my master bedroom before:
…and after adding DIY lined back-tab curtain panels:
(Instructions to sew your own lined back-tab curtains here.)
I've also tried painting store-bought curtains. (See how I did that here.)
Or, like Jae did, you could just hem store-bought curtains for a custom look on the cheap.
We still have a long way to go and many, many more projects to tackle, but so far, those are the biggest-bang-for-the-buck projects we've taken on. I'd love to hear what's worked well for you too!
I hope you'll join me over at View Along the Way and follow along as we post about our latest adventures. You can subscribe to the blog, or follow me on facebook or twitter.
Thanks so much, Jae!
I LOVE your featured curtains – so fabulous! Thank you very much Kelly for dropping by. Your big impacts are great ideas to keep in mind.
Today marks a blog milestone so we have a special treat: two guest posts! First up: Sherry Hart's blog is pretty funny (and stylish too). In fact, it is through her blog that I first learned of Lisa Mowry (an editor with BH&G). Please welcome Sherry from Design Indulgence.
I am so happy to help Design OCD celebrate a 200th post! Why didn't I think of that…..
It is by BoBo Intriguing Objects and I loved it the first time I saw it. In fact in the beginning of Design Indulgence a very early post was about a copy cat version…which you can read about here.
Now for my favorite room….that would have to be the small keeping room off my kitchen.
At the time we did our renovation I thought I would use this area for a table and chairs. In theory, that would have worked but it wasn't practical since it's just my husband and I. About 15 years ago I changed it and now the space is usable and cozy! Plus….it is a great little space to redecorate… which I do quite often…are you shocked?
Here is a picture of how I changed it up a little in the spring.
So there you have it! Some favorites around my house. Thanks so much Jae….for asking me to help you celebrate this milestone…..should we have a glass of wine 🙂
You didn't have to ask, the wine is already poured. Thanks so much Sherry. It's great how your favorite items are both functional AND beautiful.
All, stay tuned. This afternoon we have another post all about big impacts you can make for small amounts of money.

The state courts system is recommending that judges get a pay raise of up to 62 percent after having their pay frozen since 1999.
The recommendations come in a report from chief administrative judge Ann Pfau to the state Commission on Judicial Compensation, which is evaluating the pay for the state's roughly 1,300 judges.
State Supreme Court judges receive a salary of $136,700, but Pfau recommended judges' salaries increase to as high as $220,836 to put them on par with other states, based on cost of living standards. She recommended a salary between $192,000 and nearly $221,000.
Pfra called the recommendations "prudent and responsible."
"After such a lengthy pay freeze, the cost of the reform of past practices must not prevent this commission from fulfilling its urgent mandate to provide appropriate compensation to New York's judges," she wrote in the report.
The seven-member panel is expected to release its findings in late August. The commission's recommendations will automatically become law unless state lawmakers try to halt them.
Here's Pfau's report:

It's time to stop calling central Illinois "coal country." Several recent articles show the path of Illinois' new energy future.
The Bloomington Pantagraph reports that a wind turbine manufacturer in Clinton (North of Decatur) is adding new jobs and a third shift. The company president had encouraging news for the prospect of more job growth in the Illinois wind industry.
"The Midwest is really still the best market for the wind industry in the U.S.," Cole said this week. "With all the facilities we have, the Midwest seems to be, through these economic times, holding up the best."
The expansion was a welcome surprise Thursday for officials in DeWitt County, where Trinity is one of the five largest employers and taxpayers, and manufacturing is the No. 2 sector. The county posted a jobless rate of 8.5 percent last month, down from a year ago but still about double pre-recession levels.
It's no accident that wind power is blowing jobs our way. A Reuters article explains several factors helping to promote the industry in Illinois, including the Renewable Portfolio Standard pushed by environmental groups. It requires the state to gradually ramp up renewable energy use to 25% by 2025.
That's why new jobs are being created for yet another wind farm in Pike County.
Using the U.S. Department of Energy's latest Jobs and Economic Development Impacts (JEDI) Wind Energy Model, Affinity Wind estimates that the wind farm could create some $44 million in local spending during construction and $3 million per year once completed. More than $1 million in annual property taxes and several hundred thousand dollars in lease payments to landowners could be generated, along with 600 new jobs.
Those numbers are only for the Pike County project. Estimates for the rest of the state are even more impressive.
According to a June 2010 economic impact study by the Center for Renewable Energy at Illinois State University, wind farm development has created about 10,000 full-time jobs during construction periods and nearly 500 permanent jobs in rural Illinois, totaling $509 million and $25 million in payroll, respectively.
Annual property taxes generate $18 million for local economies, while landowners see $8.3 million each year in extra income through leases to wind farm developers. Overall, the center expects the projects to generate $3.2 billion in economic benefits over the life of the projects.
Clean energy sources are creating jobs without the big rate hikes and subsidies being sought by the coal industry. In the last several years we've seen job growth in communities embracing the new energy economy, while several towns chasing clean coal pipe dreams have met disappointment.
Politicians and development officials who only look to the past by pushing coal as an economic base are doing a disservice to their community.

I have really been slowing down in these last days of pregnancy. I am cooking fast, easy meals that do not require much thought, energy, and time. My computer is also broken, so I am using my husband's computer when he is not working. I am hoping my computer can be fixed! On the mommy front, my toddler has started walking! Yay! I have been extra busy running after him. I am really happy that he is walking now because both Jude and I were both starting to get frustrated. The poor kid just did not want to fall. I am sure he will be a pro by the end of this week. The other good news is that Jude is starting to grasp the concept of cleaning up. I thought it would be months before this occurred to him. The first thing he did was try and help me fold the laundry and put in on the pile I was working on- normally, he just gleefully throws everything on the floor that I have just folded and put in piles to put away. Later that day, I asked him to please put back all of the placemats he had just taken out of the basket. I really thought I was just practicing my mommy voice, but he scampered back and started putting the placemats back in the basket. Unbelievable. I guess you never know when something is just going to click!
I made Italian Sausage Spaghetti tonight with Tinkyada pasta. My husband and I really enjoy pasta now. He never really enjoyed it before because he always felt sick and too full after eating pasta too- and he doesn't have a gluten intolerance! I browned some gluten-free Italian sausage, made my marinara sauce, and threw it over the Tinkyada spaghetti. Voila! If only every night were that easy.

Hull City maintained their place in the automatic promotion positions after this draw but manager Steve Bruce will know what his priority is in the transfer market.
Signing a proven striker will be on the agenda to avoid occasions such as this when Leicester City manager Nigel Pearson returned to his former club and reminded them about something he specialises in; shutting out the opposition.
Bruce has re-invigorated Hull as an attacking unit since his arrival - as he looks to re-build his reputation after a disappointing exit from Sunderland - by bringing in key new signings and implementing a distinctive 3-5-2.
The problem is that, in matches such as this, Hull do not quite have the firepower.
One of their strikers Sone Aluko has been their best performer over the first half of the season but the other, Jay Simpson, has not been the most efficient goal-getter despite his work-rate.
Pearson got his approach right in this match, as his team came into the match following successive defeats and this draw has steadied things for them, leaving them in fifth position.
The Leicester manager opted for an unusual 4-3-3 formation, looking to stifle Hull and trouble them from wide areas. Despite that awkward scenario for the home team, Simpson still had two late chances, which he could not finish. It left Hull wondering whether that lack of a clinical edge could be an issue.
"It's gnawing away at us all," admitted Bruce.
"I hope it's not our Achilles heel as we are playing some terrific football. "For me, Leicester and Cardiff are the two teams to beat in this division, from what I've seen so far and the investment they have had.
"We are disappointed that we haven't beaten one of the big teams of the division, which shows where we are."
When asked about signing a striker, the Hull manager replied: "We would have to have someone who is proven, but it's difficult to do business in January. I'd be tearing my hair out if one of my best players was going to go and, similarly, other teams don't want their best players to go."
Hull made a promising start, but Leicester began asserting themselves as their confidence grew. Anthony Knockaert, arrested earlier this month for "a public order incident" late on a Saturday night, has been interesting bigger clubs and he began to show why by creating danger.
The Frenchman shot wide twice from long-range angled strikes during a period of pressure.
Bruce's men took control again before half-time though, with Abdoluaye Faye heading into the side-netting after a Robert Koren corner and, soon afterwards, Simpson rounded goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel and shot but Richie De Laet cleared off the line.
Hull were nearly embarrassed after the break when Knockaert swung in a cross and Faye sliced his clearance backwards but wide.
The game began opening up more late on and Simpson was denied twice as he had a powerful shot saved by Schmeichel, then headed into the goalkeeper's hands after a cross from Stephen Quinn.
Pearson said: "We could have won it and they could argue a similar case."
Match details
Hull City (3-5-2): Jakupovic; Chester, Faye (Proschwitz 83), Hobbs; Elmohamady, Koren, Evans (Cairney 71), Quinn, Brady; Aluko (Rosenior 83), Simpson.
Substitutes not used: Amos (gk), Mclean, McShane, Olofinjana.
Leicester City (4-3-3): Schmeichel; De Laet (Moore 45), Morgan, Whitbread, Konchesky; Knockaert, James, Drinkwater; Marshall, Nugent (Waghorn 67), King (Gallagher 81).
Substitutes not used: Logan (gk), Dyer, Schlupp, Futacs.

82 million pounds of concrete poured overnight to set world record
LOS ANGELES – Workers building what is to become the largest skyscraper in the western USA completed pouring the massive concrete foundation Sunday and established a world record in the process.
More than 2,100 truckloads of concrete were poured continuously over more than 18 hours for the Wilshire Grand Center project, setting a Guinness world record for largest continuous pour, a Guinness judge said Sunday.
"Everything went about as picture perfectly as they expected,'' said Michael Empric, Guinness' adjudicator on the scene.
"It was kind of like a ballet of trucks, moving in and out all night, to get this record done,'' he said.
The overnight pour began with a Saturday afternoon celebration at the downtown construction site, where the University of Southern California marching band led the parade of concrete trucks.
Sean Rossall, spokesman for the construction project, said 208 concrete trucks delivered 21,000 loads of concrete weighing 82 million pounds, hauling the material from several plants around the region where the concrete was manufactured.
The 21,200 cubic yards of concrete was completely poured shortly before noon Sunday, besting a previous record of 21,000 cubic yards set by The Venetian hotel in Las Vegas in 1999, Empric said.
Because concrete heats up as it cures, the architect and contractors designed and installed a system of chiller pipes inside the foundation that will cool the concrete as it solidifies. Pouring continuously rather than in sections allowed for establishing a single solid base to support the building's weight without linking separate sections of foundation, architect Chris Martin said.
The $1 billion private hotel and office project is being built by a Korean group that owns Korean Air Lines.
Once finished, the 73-story skyscraper will reach 1,100 feet, counting its spire, making it the tallest structure west of the Mississippi River. It will be about 100 feet taller than the current tallest building in Los Angeles and the West, the U.S. Bank Tower. The hotel is expected to open in 2017.
"In L.A. I think people are enthused about downtown. They're excited about this building. ... It means jobs, jobs, jobs," Mayor Eric Garcetti told KABC-TV at the ceremony.

|Need Help??
rdaniels_77 has asked for the
wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
I've not been successful in finding a lot of info using Perl RegEx for binary data. Think of a high level C structure:
Let's say I have an array of MYSTRUCTs in a binary file. I want to look for a pattern, say 0xaa, 0xbb, 0xcc in each 'data' field. If I find it, return true.
For this example let's just say I have 1 structure, so the regex should skip 8 bytes (jump over the 2-32bit integers), then look for the 3 byte pattern 0xaa, 0xbb, 0xcc across the 10 bytes of the data field.

Why is the letter A used to denote mass number?
I believe the "a" represents an Atomic mass unit (amu): A unit used to express the mass of an atom equal to exactly one-twelfth the mass of a carbon-12 atom.
A is the atomic mass number
Why does symbol of mass number is given A
the A stands for the amu, the atomic mass number

Ever since I read about manipulating images to display them as HDR images, I have been playing around with various tools available for the Linux and Windows platforms. It was quite difficult to find a free tool for Windows for this purpose and I finally used a trial version of Photomatix (a very well known HDR creation and tone mapping application), which leaves a watermark on all the images that you create. For Linux, I found qtpfsgui.
Photmatix was easy to use. Requiring little or no experimentation to be carried out and gave good results. The software was powerful and easy to use. The resultant HDR image by default looked good and you could tweak it to your satisfaction. The downside is that Photomatix pro, which is the only version thats any good is not free. Photomatix basic is just not as much fun. 100 dollars is just too much for an amateur like me.
Qtpfsgui is the Linux alternative to the above. Its free and its powerful, however getting the hang of the different algorithms present in the package is a whole lot of trial and error. The resultant image is just as good as the ones created by Photomatix. Provided that you were able to get the right values for all the different settings that you have to work really hard to understand. But once you have that setting, you are good to go and changing those settings can give you interesting results. The experimentation is also good as you get quite different results when you use the different algorithms. At the end of the day, I had to use qtpfsgui as my primary OS is linux and I dont boot into Windows often. I would miss the tone mapping flexibility offered by Photomatix when I would be working in Linux.
Tone mapping is what makes a HDR image show up with astonishing results on your computer screen. Since this was what was the main process that I wanted to carry out comfortable inLinux, I started looking for only tone mapping tools for the Linux platform. That's when my search led me to the Advanced Tone Mapping Plugin for The GIMP. This works out very well for me as I use The GIMP extensively for all my post processing needs.
The Advanced Tone Mapping (ATM) plugin is very east to use, with just a few settings and very little experimentation involved. This nifty little plugin attempts to duplicate the workings of the LightZone (not Adobe Lightroom) tone mapper. It is a script developed by the author to automate the steps provided by gimpaddict in his tutorial where he has given step by step instructions on getting LightZone Tone Mapper type result from The GIMP. By the way, LightZone's Tone Mapper is considered by many to be superior to the tone mapping capabilities of even Adobe Lightroom.
The ATM plugin is ridiculously easy to use. You don't even have to start with differently exposed images to create an HRD image in the first palce. You can just start with any old image and get working on it right away. The results are surprisingly effective. I will you to decide the best of the lot from 3 examples below created with ATM, Photomatix and qtpfsgui. In my opinion, they are all equally good.

I'm certainly not going to try to claim that Gordon's 1965 film is any good, but it's such a mash-up of genres.. that you'd have to be a real grouch to not find some fun in it.
Camp fun.
Oh, it's bad. It's really bad.
Audience Reviews for Village of the Giants
This has got to be the craziest teen movie of the sixties, in terms of plot I mean. A kid is working on a growth formula, teens accidentally take some and become giants who try to take over the world? Wow. This would be a good movie if these teens didn't spend half the movie dancing around and saying stupid lines. The ending is even more disappointing. I wouldn't recommend this movie.

The Berkshire Hathaway annual meeting takes over Omaha every spring with the force of a Hell's Angels rally. The cheapest tickets cost $3,000, the price of a Berkshire Hathaway B share. This year's hoopla drew 19,500 shareholders eager to glean advice from the investment sage. Alas, Buffett's musings are philosophical and historical; he doesn't give stock tips.
That doesn't stop Buffett fans from trying to imitate him. They may ape his stock purchases once Berkshire's holdings become public. Or they may apply his style of value management to the selection of other stocks. But nobody else's stock-picking record comes close to Buffett's in both cumulative percentage gain and dollar magnitude. Berkshire shares were worth $15 apiece when he took over the company 39 years ago; now they go for $85,500, and the company's market value is $131 billion. In recent years, however, the performance engine has lost some steam, and some imitation Buffetts are doing better than the real thing.
|The Sincerest Form of Flattery
|Two beat Warren, one tied. The oldest fund lags: Sequoia, closed to new money.
|in Berkshire Hathaway
High fees make this magazine skeptical of hedge funds but don't stop us from admiring their stock-selection skills. Los Angeles hedge fund manager Mohnish Pabrai, 39, seems to have some talent as a stock picker. Since he started Pabrai Investment Funds in 1999, he has delivered a 35.3% compound annual return (after fees), to the 14.2% a year you would have made owning Berkshire shares.
There are two reasons the $116 million portfolio has done better than the competition in Omaha. One, says Pabrai, is that he doesn't try to emulate Berkshire's holdings in wholly owned subsidiaries. That has kept him out of property/casualty insurance, which accounts for a big part of Berkshire's revenue and had suffered some setbacks (such as claims from Sept. 11). The other is that he hews a little more closely to the kind of value investing espoused by Buffett's mentor, Benjamin Graham. Graham liked to buy companies for less than net current assets, meaning cash, inventory and receivables minus all obligations. Buffett has pushed the definition of intrinsic value in new directions. He is willing to pay for intangibles, like a consumer brand name or a newspaper monopoly, provided those assets throw off "owner's profits"--cash that can be extracted from a business after necessary capital outlays are paid for.
Like Buffett, Pabrai keeps his distance from Wall Street. He buys no research and has no hired help. If he can't understand a company, he doesn't buy the stock. Further, Pabrai won't meet with a company's executives; if he socializes with one, he'll never invest in the stock. "Chief executives are salesmen, as Graham says," Pabrai intones. "That's how they get their jobs."
Pabrai last year bought the Norwegian oil tanker firm Frontline when shipping rates fell to $5,000 a day. To remain profitable, the company needs rates of at least $18,000 a day on its 70 double-hulled oil tankers. Investors fled the stock, and it fell to $3. Frontline wasn't a classic Graham value play since it didn't have much in the way of net current assets. But it did have hard assets--those tankers.
After noticing the stock on a new lows list, Pabrai looked into the oil shipping business and discovered that small Greek shippers with near-obsolete single-hulled tankers were being hurt more than Frontline and were selling their ships for scrap. So he knew that when oil demand next surged, Frontline would be better able to command premium rates. Near the end of 2003 Frontline was charging $50,000 a day per tanker. Pabrai is long gone, but the stock, at $29 a share, trades at a cheap five times trailing earnings.
In 2002 he beat Buffett to the convertible bonds of Level 3 Communications. Like his hero, Pabrai saw value in telecom's distress.
C. Douglas Davenport, manager of the $52 million Wisdom Fund in Atlanta, is Buffett's shadow. If Buffett does something, Davenport will, too--going so far as to buy proxy stocks for companies that Berkshire acquires. Davenport keeps the identical proportion of cash that Berkshire does, a sizable 22% of his portfolio.
Davenport's fund, with backing from Sir John Templeton's family, started in early 1999 as the Berkshire Fund but changed its name after the real Berkshire complained. Davenport, 53, follows Berkshire's public filings and news reports to see what Buffett has been up to. "Buffett is quite well followed. It's amazing how much you can find out about the man on the Internet," he says. Thus Davenport has 8% of his assets in Coca-Cola, and 4% in American Express, just like Berkshire.
When Berkshire acquired carpetmaker Shaw Industries in 2001, Davenport went after competitor Mohawk Industries, waiting two weeks for its share price to settle down. Last year Berkshire bought Clayton Homes, a builder of prefab homes, and Davenport bought into similar Champion Enterprises. To roughly match Berkshire's huge stakes in auto insurance and reinsurance, Davenport has American International Group.
Since inception just over five years ago Wisdom is up an annual 5.2%, after its 1.5% expense ratio, matching Berkshire's showing.
The Fairholme Fund, managed in Short Hills, N.J. by Bruce Berkowitz, Larry S. Pitkowsky and Keith Trauner, has a fourth of its $130 million in Berkshire shares. But it has done better with its non-Berkshire holdings. Net of 1% in overhead, Fairholme has returned 18.1% a year since its inception in 2000, besting Berkshire's 13.9%.
The fund's second-largest holding is Leucadia National, a Berkshire-like conglomerate run by recent Buffett partners Joseph Steinberg and Ian Cumming. Alongside Buffett, Fairholme invested in White Mountains Insurance Group, holding on even after the Sept. 11 attacks, when insurance stocks looked dicey. Fairholme makes bets on distressed companies that would scare off a classic Grahamite. In 2002 it started buying debt of troubled Williams Communications, saw that debt converted to equity in a reorganization and bought more equity. When Leucadia acquired the business last year, Fairholme's stake appreciated 50%.

(WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA) -- Stable President Donald von Wiedenman, winding up a marathon month-long negotiating session, announced today that industry favorite Blake Harper [http://BlakeHarper.com] has accepted a partnership position with the production company von Wiedenman founded in 1998.
Harper, who moved to Los Angeles from San Francisco at the beginning of June to get settled in before starting full-time with Stable, had been looking for an opportunity that encompassed his past three award-winning years in the industry. One of his considerations was to gradually move from one side of the camera to the other.
"I had already decided to limit the number of features I was going to appear in this year," says Harper, "before Donald approached me about joining Stable. My interest in the industry has held steady due to the vast spectrum of opportunities it has presented. From my early vanilla scenes in 1998 to my eye-opening bisexual role in Stable's "Goosed 3: A Bisexual Love Affair" just a few weeks ago -- and all the kink in between -- I've experienced virtually every sexual act imaginable. "It was time to use that experience." Harper continues, "and move ahead. Joining Stable as a partner is a personal and professional milestone that continues to feed my interest and hold my attention within the adult entertainment field."
At the moment, Stable is in a position of unparalleled growth due in part to its high profile productions and its unprecedented number of GayVN nominations in its first two years [http://GayVN.com]. This year Stable took home two GayVN awards, Best Bisexual Video for "Goosed Again!" and Best Art Direction for "The Servant," in which Harper starred.
Harper brings his own award-winning background and versatile, nice-guy personality to his new position. In addition to receiving GayVN's Performer of the Year award, he was the recipient of Men in Video's Hottest Ass Award and Hottest Cocksucker Award, and he walked away with the Best Supporting Actor award at the Grabby's two weeks ago [http://www.GRABBYS.com].
By all accounts, Harper is one of the most popular performers in the business. "Blake has a first-hand knowledge of the industry that is very different than my own," explains von Wiedenman of his decision to hand over many of the responsibilities that he himself has administered since the company began. "As he becomes familiar with Stable's long-term goals, he will become more involved in the overall marketing and decision-making process."
"I've recently experienced a lot of changes in my life," says Harper." I choose to focus on the positive aspects, and this partnership with Stable is one of them. I plan to contribute to the ongoing success of Stable by maintaining the high standard by which it operates." Harper has already moved into the Stable offices and is currently focusing on the preproduction aspects of Stable's next two projects, both of which star Harper.
"I was already committed to those projects before Donald even mentioned the partnership. My arrangement with Stable is structured so that I am free to perform for other companies should I chose to, but right now I'm not taking on anything new for at least the next few months."
"I didn't build Stable from the ground up to run it alone," concludes von Wiedenman, "although that's how it seems to have worked out - until now. I would not have brought Blake into Stable in such a critical, high profile capacity if I weren't going to listen to what he has to say and act on his input.
"More than anything else, however, Blake possesses two of the most important traits that I value in both my personal and professional life - and those are honesty and loyalty. In the end, that is all that really matters when two people are in any kind of relationship."

Cyprus bank bailout agreement is pure theft: 40% of private deposits to be looted from selected accounts
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
(NaturalNews) A brand new looting arrangement has been reached concerning Cypriot banks. It involves seizing the funds of all accounts over 100,000 euros, then stealing up to 40% of those funds sometime over the next few weeks, or whenever EU bureaucrats get around to deciding exactly how much to steal.
So instead of 10% being stolen from most accounts, as was originally proposed, the new deal is that 40% will be stolen from selected accounts, but not from accounts holding less than 100,000 euros. Why the 100,000 threshold for having your money stolen by the banking system? Because all EU bank accounts are insured up to 100,000 euros. So the banksters figured they could just steal anything over 100,000 and say, "Heh, it wasn't insured, your loss!"
IMF chief Christine Lagarde characterized the theft as "a lasting, durable and fully financed solution." And if that's not enough of a solution, they can always loot more private accounts to reach a new solution!
Sure, it's a great solution... if you're the banksters stealing all the money from private account holders. But from the point of view of depositors, this "solution" looks a lot more like a mugging.
Entire accounts seized indefinitely
It's actually worse than just the 40% being stolen from private accounts: all accounts over 100,000 euros are now
indefinitely frozen
(seized) until the banksters figure out exactly how much to steal. "Large deposits with Bank of Cyprus above the insured level will be frozen until it becomes clear whether or to what extent they will also be forced to take losses, the Eurogroup of finance ministers said in a statement." (
USA Today
Not everybody is fooled by all the bankster happy talk, of course. As Colm McCarthy writes on the
Independent.ie website
...the eurozone countries collectively do not have an actual deposit guarantee fund in place, and the volume of deposits in many eurozone countries, not just those already in financial distress, is large relative to the fiscal capacity of the state. Bank runs by retail depositors are a serious risk, particularly in those countries whose governments lack financial credibility.
And from Mats Persson of
The Eurozone set a risky precedent when it decided to go for depositors. Images of long queues outside ATMs will have registered in other parts of the Mediterranean. If Cypriot depositors are forced to pay today, why not Spaniards tomorrow? ...Events in Cyprus have shown just what a high-risk gamble the euro was... If you could design a system whereby a splinter could take down an elephant, this would be it.
No deposits are ever safe while the central banks are running things
The bottom line truth in all this is that no deposits are ever safe in any bank run by a government. Governments are inherently liars, and when it comes down to a crisis,
it's always easier to just STEAL money from depositors
and call it a "tax."
The business of banking, it seems, has largely become a business of theft. No wonder everybody's flocking to bitcoin, the decentralized crypto-currency that's not controlled by any government anywhere:
That's also why the Natural News Store has just announced it is
now accepting bitcoin currency
as payment for orders. Anyone with bitcoins can now buy prepared foods, superfoods, organics, supplements and much more, directly from the

Looking for kids party ideas? Look no further, call your local Chuck E Cheese? First, Look at this face. I was sorting through pictures for my scrapbooks and I came across these pictures from one of Xavier's parties. I thought I would share a few from our Chuck E Cheese party. The kids had a great time and so did the parents. As a matter of fact, out of the 9 birthday parties that we thrown for this little guy, this one is in the top 5.
Most importantly, I love parties where the work for the parents is minimal. Luckily, it was just that at Chuck E Cheese. There were lots of activities, pizza, a dance with the Big Cheese, and no clean up. It doesn't get any better than that. There was a snack bar for parents to purchase other food if they didn't have an appetite for pizza. I must recommend their salads, they are wonderful. We had the Superman Cake made and we purchased the Superman Tablecloth at Party City.
We had a hostess assigned to our tables who take care of serving the food, coordinating the dance with the Big Cheese, lighting the cake and all the other activities around the Rock Star's table. It was nice to be able to take pictures and just relax.
Because Xavier loves Spider-Man so much, it was the theme for the birthday cake. We had this cake made at Farm Fresh. They did an excellent job decorating it, and it was delicious. I love that store for other reasons too. For example, their deli is wonderful when you need a quick meal. The kids love their chicken, and so do I. Lets not leave out their fresh produce. I digressed didn't I.
So, if you're unsure of how many guests you will have or you have a set budget, I suggest that you check out the packages available. You can plan the party around the package. Actually, Chuck E Cheese offers 4 packages: Star, Super Star, Mega Super Star and Play More, Eat More . We choose the Mega Super Star package, which included pizza, ice cream cups, tokens, a goody bag and a Rock Star cup for the party guests. Additionally, the tables were reserved for two hours, which was sufficient time for everyone to enjoy the activities, eat and go back to the activities.
We had a great photo opportunity here, Xavier is dancing with Chuck E Cheese. The look on his face was worth a million bucks.
Next, he had so much fun blowing out the candles on his cake. However, we did have a mishap. The hostess set her hair on fire lighting the cake. Thank goodness it was quickly extinguished and she wasn't hurt. She didn't miss a beat, she served the cake and ice cream as if nothing happened. We gave her a hand for handling it like a pro. Most people at the tables didn't even realize that her hair was on fire. Imagine that!
Additionally, they have the Ticket Blaster. It gives the Rock Star an opportunity to catch tickets, which can be redeemed for games. I wasn't sure how he would feel about being enclosed in a booth, but he did well. He's such a brave little guy.
Finally, we ended the party with the kids using the remaining tokens and tickets in the games area. Somehow, Xavier lost his shoes. But he didn't think twice about finding them. Thankfully, we were able to locate them before dragging him out and heading home. Best part of the day, he totally enjoyed his birthday party and his friends. Did I mention, he still takes his shoes off at every opportunity.
In conclusion, I hope you like our kids party ideas. I would highly recommend having a birthday party for your child at Chuck E. Cheese. Just as importantly, the service was excellent and all of the children left happily exhausted. For parents, you can sit back and relax. Because there's no cleanup! It doesn't get better than that.

Unions representing teachers and support staff workers in separate announcements last week unveiled endorsements for Metro's school board races in advance of the Aug. 2 election.
The Service Employees International Union Local 205, which represents the school district's support staff workers, opted not to endorse in the District 5 race in which board chair Gracie Porter is looking to fend off three challengers.
Mark Naccarato told The City Paper none of the District 5 candidates returned the SEIU's questionnaire, so none received the union's endorsement.
Porter, who enjoyed SEIU's support during her first school board run, voted to outsource school custodians two years ago and has supported Director of Schools Jesse Register's decision to undo the district's "memorandum of understanding" policy with support staff employees. SEIU vehemently opposed both moves.
In the District 1 race between two sitting board members — Sharon Gentry and Ed Kindall — the SEIU endorsed Kindall.
"He's often the only one in the school board meetings who asks the tough questions and tries to hold Dr. Register accountable," said Cordelia Howard, a school secretary, in the SEIU's announcement.
In the District 3 school board race to fill departing board member Mark North's seat, SEIU endorsed Free Lee, a licensed teacher and attorney.
SEIU endorsed Al Wilkins in the board's District 7 race and Amy Frogge for District 9, the seat currently held by Kay Simmons, who has opted to not seek re-election.
The Metro Nashville Education Association's Political Action Committee for Education endorsed both Gentry and Kindall. The two sitting board members were drawn into the same political boundaries during redistricting last year.
"The decision to choose between two dedicated, experienced people was impossible," MNEA president Stephen Henry said.
"It's a shame two dedicated current school board members have been forced into a race against each other," he added.
The teachers' union endorsed Jill Speering in the District 3 race. Other District 3 candidates are Lee and Jarod DeLozier.
MNEA, in the District 5 election, endorsed Porter over her three opponents: Elissa Kim, Erica Lanier and John Haubenreich.
In the District 7 contest, MNEA endorsed Will Pinkston, a former aide under Gov. Phil Bredesen. Other District 7 candidates are Wilkins and Alan Sharp.
In District 9, MNEA endorsed businesswoman Margaret Dolan. Other candidates are Frogge, former Councilman Eric Crafton, Bob Bogen and Ronnie Osborne.
Just remember when you vote that these unions' existence parallel the the decline of Metro schools. Also remember that they people they endorsed in prior elections were the ones surprised by the state's implementation of charter schools just for the silly little reason that the schools they replace happen to suck enough to be in Memphis.
If it were not for unions, There would be 40 plus children in a classroon, no Phy. Ed and all the good things to protect children would not be there. If you think that the teachers were the ones to gain from unions,. you have no idea what you are talking about. Just watch the class size this fall. This is just the beginning. Without unions, we would not have 40 hours work week, two weeks vacation. This is just to name a few things that we enjoy. But, the most important thing is that children are protected from working like an adult. Go back and read about the working people and thier rights before unions.
pswindle - Thank you for those accomplishments from 70+ years ago. Now unions are nothing but a corrupt group of people stealing from their membership to prop up the ones in charge. Union leaders make $100,000+ a year while thier "brothers and sisters" worry about if they'll have a job. If you are so worried about the children, then let Jesse Register do his job and fire all the teachers who under perform. You are more worried about the size of the class instead of the quality of the teacher.
Register has been moving teachers out for the past three years. Have the test scores increased? You've got to do more than bring in outside "consultants" to change a school district especially when those consultants are his friends from Chattanooga who didn't do anything great in Chattanooga.
Just like MNEA to endorse both candidates in one race to make sure they
had the winner. Board members that support mediocre Leaders like we've
had for so many years, like Retired Mr. Kindell, is a big part of the problem!
It's good that MNEA and Service Employees International Union, one of the
Nation's largest, have given us their endorsement. Vote the opposite for
a better system!
Thanks for the info...anyone who is endorsed by SEIU will never get a vote from me.
SEIU, better known as the active arm of the Communist Party, shouldn't have any business in MNPS business. MNEA supports all the "old school" types, like dinosaur Ed Kindall. So, that being said, if you use these organization's endorsements as to who NOT to vote for, then you will serve Metro Schools well. Make sure if you're in District 9 that you vote for Eric Crafton. He will hold Register and Company accountable and will accept no excuses. And he has no respect for unions of any type.
> In District 9, MNEA endorsed businesswoman Margaret Dolan. Other candidates are Frogge, former Councilman Eric Crafton, Bob Bogen and Ronnie Osborne.
Eric Crafton? My god, does he never stop? Forgive my rhetoric, but knowing this guy is on the ballot gives me a reason to go on living.
Phiber O.
Unions still serve one good purpose; telling us who NOT to vote for.
So glad these money grabbing power hungry albatrosses are on the decline.
Anyone who is involved with SEIU would be as evil as they are... never vote with them. GUARDIAN-GOD, COUNTRY, FAMILY and FRIENDS. The American Way.

Hello my fellow beauty junkies!
You guys have heard me rant and rave about the Glossier phase one set enough already, but now I'm here to tell you guys about the newest products in their line up. Introducing…the mega greens galaxy pack, and the moisturizing moon mask! Yes, face masks. I really thought the next product from Glossier would be a face wash (I had even suggested that one) but they created two different, yet complimentary face masks instead.
The packaging is plastic tubs of 3 oz. of product each for $22
Both masks have a totally different feel and are different colors
The mega greens galaxy pack has been dubbed the "juice cleanse" for your face by Glossier. This means its loaded with super fruit and leafy greens such as parsley, spinach, lemon, etc., and is really good for your skin. Its base is kaolin clay, which is the lightest form of clay for a clay mask. However, don't let that fool you! This mask does a lot of work without looking or feeling (hello non drying clay!) like it.
Glossier's Claims:
Detoxifying, balancing, nourishing, and helps to calm inflammation. They also say it helps draw out excess oil and impurities, and leaves your skin feeling soft with a velvet- matte finish.
My Experience:
This mask is a thick (ish) one that is very light green in texture with a slight scent that is very pleasant. I moisten my face before putting it on (as per Glossier's instructions), and slather it on with a few fingers. Upon contact I feel that there is a slight tingling and burning sensation which goes away in the first few minutes of application. It dries to a translucent finish and almost disappears into the skin. You can see tiny green particles around your face from the leafy greens. After removal, I found my face to be very soft, and conditioned, as opposed to dry and tight which is usually what I feel like after using clay masks. My skin felt clean, did have a velvet matte finish, and produced less oil throughout the day. However, I didn't see a gigantic difference in my skin or anything in particular that I felt wowed me.
Overall Grade: B
The moisturizing moon mask is meant to brighten skin with sweet almond oil, plant based squaline, and hyaluronic acid. This mask is also packed with lots of natural products such as honey, licorice, and lemon fruit extract to plump up and hydrate the skin
Glossier's Claims:
Hydrating, plumping, brightening, smooth fine lines and restore elasticity. It is also supposed to even out the complexion and soothe the skin while pumping in moisture.
My Experience:
This mask is so different than I was expecting. It looks something like Pond's cold cream but has the texture of a gel and cream in one. Thick, but not heavy, bouncy, but not like flubber (sorry, I had to). I apply this with a few fingers and try to get a thick layer so I can see it more- but as time goes on it soaks into the skin and turns completely transparent. When I went to the mirror after 20 minutes, I was shocked to see my face looking very shiny and the mask virtually having disappeared. It looks like your skin would look after applying a toner or a serum. Basically, very shiny. This made me think the mask has completely soaked into my skin, and when I wet my hands and started taking it off, I realized that it really did soak in very much because this mask was hard to get off! My hands slipped and slid to remove all of it, but that made me very happy! I also noticed a huge difference in the brightness of my complexion and the obvious glow there was. I also loved the fact that my face did not feel tight at all, rather very comfortable and soft to the touch.
Overall Grade: A
I follow both the masks with the Glossier face mist and then the priming moisturizer, and I love the results. Glossier says to use both the masks in one sitting (first the mega greens for 20 minutes, followed by the moisturizing moon mask for another 20), but I like to use them separately. I prefer using the mega greens in the morning since it helps reduce oil production throughout the day, and the moisturizing moon mask at night. I feel like the next morning after having used that mask there is a huge difference in my normally dull skin.
Each mask retails for $22, and are 3 oz. each. Not bad at all, considering how many brands charge an arm and a leg for skincare such as this. You can purchase them HERE. Don't forget to check out my video review on both of them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_YT6blPVkrw&feature=youtu.be

sometimes more blatantly so than others.
An assistant district attorney in the state of Oklahoma lived rent-free
in a house confiscated by local law enforcement under the practice of
asset forfeiture.
Another district attorney used $5,000 worth of confiscated funds to pay back his student loans.
Regarding use of the property or money after seizure, audits of district
attorney's accounts by the State Auditor and Inspector's Office have
found the assets in a number of cases were misused or not accounted for.
Yes, someone's trying to do something about it; and the usual suspects are squealing.
State Sen. Kyle Loveless, a Republican, has sponsored a bill to make
these practices less common. He would prohibit asset forfeiture unless a
suspect was actually convicted of a crime, and stipulate that the money
go to the state's general fund.
Law enforcement officials counter that forfeiture is necessary to combat
drug trafficking and say that abuses are rare. They say Loveless is
hyping the issue and using scare tactics to push his bill.
Sonsabitches want to be able to continue to steal property, including money, without even having to prove there was a crime committed, because "Doing Good Things!" And if you have a problem with it, you're 'hyping the issue'.
Screw you; stop violating the 4th Amendment(and acting like dicks) for profit and you won't have to worry about being called on it.

suckerPUNCH: Describe your project.
4of7 Architecture & University of Belgrade: This is by far the largest prototypical model built in the Inconsistencies series. It was built at Kula Nebojsa in Belgrade, in June this year, as a result of the workshop conceived as an integral part of the Design Studio curriculum 1112M5 for 16 students at University of Belgrade. There are several key aspects to this exercise.
The model was built in the open air space, to interact with weather conditions over the period of few weeks. Elastic material behavior was of essential importance to construction process and structural stability. A custom made plug-in was developed for Rhino to allow for geometric modeling with material constraints. Construction of the model is carried out as a collective effort, according to the design protocol structured as a set of simple rules based on easy to do techniques, albeit the baking sun and five meter distance to the concrete floor.
sP: What or who influenced this project?
4of7 Architecture & University of Belgrade: Weather.

The assignment was to get a "pretty photograph" of a flood ravaged river in the middle of winter. After two weeks of hard backpacking down the river in the Texas Hill Country, I had found nothing pretty to photograph. Everywhere I looked was bare and desolate.
On the last morning of my trip I arose before dawn to give the assignment one last go, but felt that my efforts were to be futile. When dawn broke I sat on my camera case and just gave up. While sitting there the clouds broke. The most beautiful sunrise appeared before me. I had found my photograph!
I had given up all hope, but by giving myself one last chance I found victory in my efforts.
"Defeat is only present when we let it be there.
Always give yourself "one last chance."

Although user names are publicly known, passwords must be kept secret and known only to users. Each user account should be assigned a password, which is a combination of six to eight letters, numbers, or special characters. You can set a user's password when you create the user account and have the user change it when logging in to a system for the first time.
To make your computer systems more secure, ask users to change their passwords periodically. For a high level of security, you should require users to change their passwords every six weeks. Once every three months is adequate for lower levels of security. System administration logins (such as root and sys) should be changed monthly, or whenever a person who knows the root password leaves the company or is reassigned.
Many breaches of computer security involve guessing a legitimate user's password. You should make sure that users avoid using proper nouns, names, login names, and other passwords that a person might guess just by knowing something about the user.
Good choices for passwords include:
Phrases (beammeup)
Nonsense words made up of the first letters of every word in a phrase (swotrb for SomeWhere Over The RainBow)
Words with numbers or symbols substituted for letters (sn00py for snoopy)
Do not use these choices for passwords:
Your name, forwards, backwards, or jumbled
Names of family members or pets
Car license numbers
Telephone numbers
Social Security numbers
Employee numbers
Names related to a hobby or interest
Seasonal themes, such as Santa in December
Any word in the dictionary

I'm brand new to installing OS X onto a physical machine, so please pardon my newbishness
note: I posted this in the wrong place (OSX 10.9 installation), so If this is also the wrong place, could an admin please move me to the right place thanks!
So Here's the build I'd like to install OS X 10.9 (or 10.8 if 10.9 wont work):
Processor: Intel Core i7-4770k
Graphics Card: MSI Twin Frozr GTX 660 Ti (The MSI version of Nvidia's GTX 660 Ti?)
Memory: Patriot Viper 32GB (4x 8GB cards)
Motherboard: MSI MPOWER Z87 Chipet (Does have the UEFI thing)
DVD Drive: ASUS 24x DVD Burner DRW-24B1ST
HDD: 1 or 2 TB (Don't think it matters)
I built it with the best that I could get, thinking that it would be better so that OS X would run really fast
So will my hardware support? and what boot flags (I read some of the instructions) should I use?
Will provide everything necessary to get this baby working xD
P.S. Could I also possibly install Xcode and iLife on it (via the DMG files that I found)?
