The customers, they keep coming, will they ever stop? Well, no, they won't, and they want their burgers, NOW!
Cook, assemble and serve these customers as fast as you can in this face-paced fry-cook simulator!
Grab your virtual spatula and paper hat and get ready for some burger-flipping action as you race against the clock to see how many customers you can serve before time runs out.
The customer is always right, and they all want their burger prepared to their exact specifications! After they give you their order, you have to cook it and top it with an array of burger toppings. These people are in a hurry too, so you'd better be quick about it, because the longer they have to wait, the less happy they will be when they get their burger.

Normally, I try really hard to support a person's livelihood. However, since we are all voicing opinions about the proposed smoking ban in all restaurants and bars in Juneau, I thought I would put my "two cents" in.
I was once a smoker. I smoked to my heart's content. Then I found out a family member was dying from smoking. My grandmother died from smoking and my great-grandfather (her father) died of lung cancer. So I quit. You would not believe how hard it is to be a quitter and want to go out dancing with my spouse, only to have it surrounding me. Why would I want to quit smoking if I have to risk dying anyway just to have a good time in Juneau? I had to miss out on a lot of fun with friends because I didn't want to inhale the stench and slowly kill myself anyway.
This reminds me too much of the lunch room in high school. Not being able to sit with a certain group of people because I wasn't "one of them." I can't go anywhere in Juneau to dance on a weekend without having to go to a smoke-infested place where I have to inhale the toxic chemicals to have a good time, just because I don't smoke. Why do I have to give up the fun because I don't want to die?
In the past, on the other side of the pancake, when I was out dancing and drinking (responsibly of course), I smoked. I enjoyed being able to sit down with friends and smoke. When we went out to coffee, we smoked at our table. However, I wasn't thinking of the people, including children, I was harming with my bad habit. My selfishness could possibly be killing someone and I didn't have a second thought about it. Why should they have to be evicted from a restaurant because I have a bad habit? I didn't understand then, now I do. Can't there be a smoking area with closed doors and a ventilation system that blows the toxic smoke outside or a covered area outside or on the roof of these businesses?
I don't know how to solve this issue but the fact remains, smoking kills. If you want to kill yourself, don't involve the rest of the world. We all have the right to be in these public establishments, but we all don't need the risks or the discrimination because we all want to have a good time and support our local businesses.

Twinkle gets court relief, Anita Advani won't get copy of Rajesh Khanna's will
Rajesh Khanna's daughter, Twinkle Khanna, can heave a sigh of relief now that her appeal that challenges an order favouring Anita Advani has been admitted in the Bombay High Court
Rajesh Khanna's daughter, Twinkle Khanna, has a reason to smile. The actress-turned-interior designer can heave a sigh of relief now that her appeal, that challenges an order favouring Anita Advani, has been admitted in the Bombay High Court.

On Monday, the Bombay HC allowed her to file an appeal that contests Advani's demand to get a copy of the probate proceedings of Rajesh Khanna's will. The court also stayed its previous order that permitted Anita Advani to get a copy of the will.
Sources say that Twinkle's lawyer argued that even if the will was to be revoked, Anita Advani has no locus standi to do so.

It may be recalled here that Anita Advani, who claims to be Rajesh Khanna's live-in partner in his last years, has asked that she be given a copy of the probate proceedings of the will; she plans to revoke the same alleging that it has been forged.
When contacted, Advani said that she is not going to give up on her fight. Anita Advani's lawyer Manohar Shetty says, "We are going to challenge the order and file a petition for revocation of the probate of Rajesh Khanna's will." Twinkle was not available for comment.

Some Big Features And Downloads To Consider Adding To Your Website
December 31, 2013 | Website Design | No Comments|
Too many websites these days are pretty much exactly the same as one another. These are sites filled with white pages that have a logo at the top and a navigation bar down one side. You can see a list of the latest articles on the front page, and browse through the older articles at will.
And that's it.
Not terribly ambitious is it? Ultimately it comes down to a big online book or magazine that doesn't take any advantage of the fact it's online or running code that could make it more interactive and more feature-rich. So instead of just a bunch of static pages, how about adding something a little more interesting to the mix that might make your site really stand out and provide whole new income streams for your business? Things like this…
A shop is one of the very best ways to monetise a website and will allow you to keep a lot more profit than using advertising or marketing an affiliate product. This is also a great way to strengthen your brand and to turn your site into more of a business rather than just a 'magazine'.
Web Comic
We all know how successful the right images can be in helping to promote a website – just look at the immense popularity of infographics across the web. Even better than an infographic though could be a web comic in your niche that shares jokes relevant to your interests and that will have a high potential to go viral. A webcomic can get an immediate emotional response where an article cannot and is a great way to build buzz and character for the rest of your site. Just look at Penny Arcade for an example of how a webcomic can be tied in with a blog.
Web Apps
Or why not add in some tools that visitors to your site can use. These could be calculators to help them workout figures (calories for a fitness website, interest rates for a money site) or something much more involved that can turn your site into a vital part of their workflow that you can then sell your content off of the back of.
Or if you aren't sure about linking that software to the site itself, how about creating some software that your visitors can then download and use? This can again further increase awareness for your brand and can draw a lot of people to your site. It's also a great potential source of revenue if you charge for downloads.
Finally, why not release a game to help promote your site and bring in some income? This could keep people glued to your site for hours, or if you're really ambitious you could even consider releasing it via Steam. You'll have to go through the community-drive 'greenlight' process of course, but if you succeed there you can potentially earn a lot of money there – more than the rest of the site potentially!

Croatia's Coach Slaven Bilic and players insist it is an "insult" to think they'll draw with Spain to knock Italy out, while mocking the betting scandal too.
The Azzurri will be out of Euro 2012 regardless of their result against Ireland if Spain-Croatia ends 2-2, an identical situation to the one that saw them eliminated from Euro 2004 by Denmark and Sweden.
Italian media have focused more on the fear of a 'biscotto' – slang term for fix – than their own game with the Republic of Ireland.
"I can guarantee that I and my players are men of sport," blasted a furious Bilic in La Gazzetta dello Sport.
"We will never take an option like this into consideration. Never! To claim the contrary is an insult to me, to my players and my country. We are Croatian and we are proud.
"Besides, 2-2 is a result, just like a victory or a defeat. It means nothing more than that. I'd hate to be in Italy's place right now. They have to beat Ireland and that is not a given, as nobody wants to go home with three defeats.
"We are athletes, parents and children. It's out of the question we would agree a result with Spain. Don't forget Italy are far weaker a side than Spain..."
The Croatian players were also offended by the suggestion they'll aim for a 2-2 draw against Spain and mocked Italy's own issues with match-fixing.
"If Gianluigi Buffon likes betting on games, that doesn't mean we do," noted Darijo Srna.
"I'm sure Buffon was joking when he said he'd bet on our result ending 2-2. I doubt he really thought we'd fix the match."
Daniel Pranjic was eager to point out a high-scoring draw is not beyond the realms of possibility.
"Our objective will be to win the game and therefore the group. Clearly, the game could then finish with any result, including 2-2."

Republicans are blasting Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand for a rather abrupt 180 on the Protect IP Act, which she co-sponsored.
The junior senator, a Democrat who lives in Brunswick, said Friday she pulled her support of the bill — designed to crack down on foreign piracy of American movies and music — after a netizen revolt stoked by Facebook, Google and Wikipedia. She explained her reasoning here.
Republican State Chairman Ed Cox, though, attacked her for flip-flopping. Here's his statement:
"There are only three possible explanations for Senator Gillibrand's sponsorship of this anti-New York legislation," Cox said. "One: Ms. Gillibrand didn't read the legislation before co-sponsoring it. Two: She read the bill and didn't understand it. Or three: She understood the bill, but decided to support Hollywood's interests over the interests of her own state."
(Senator Gillibrand has received more than $610,000 from the Hollywood/entertainment industry in the past year, the Republicans noted in a press release.)
Many in the GOP consider Gillibrand to be vulnerable in the coming election cycle, but only Nassau County Comptroller George Maragos has formally declared his candidacy against her. He was backed this weekend by Nassau County Republicans. Another potential Gillibrand challenger, Marc Cenedella, apparently posted some controversial things about sex and drugs on a blog that was abruptly taken down.
UPDATE: The GOP also produced this video.

From Mayor Joseph A. Curtatone: Disturbing rape allegations stemming from an incident that may have happened at Somerville High School's annual sports camp have shaken our community. Three students were arraigned on those charges this week, and city and school officials continue to cooperate and provide any resources and information needed for the ongoing investigation. Our immediate focus after reporting the incident to the appropriate authorities was providing compassion, support and services to the victims, as well as the students and families in our school community. Those support services for those immediately impacted as well as the broader community, as it comes together to heal, remain our focus. I have asked Health Department Director Paulette Renault-Caragianes and Somerville Trauma Response Network Manager Patricia Contente to write this week's column and inform all of us of the services available to our community, and to encourage anyone who needs support to reach out and get the help you need.
When someone you care about reports being sexually assaulted, reaching out for help can be the first step towards healing. The impact of sexual assault is not confined to those directly impacted. News of sexual assault can trigger traumatic stress in people previously impacted by it. Even those who do not have a personal history that has been impacted by sexual assault can find themselves dealing with a range of emotions: anger, sadness and worry.
Anyone burdened by these normal reactions to a painful event must know this: You are not alone. There are experienced, trained people who will listen to you, believe you, understand and support you, and keep everything in confidence. The Somerville Health Department's Trauma Response Network at 857-221-0942 can provide the support you need and connect you with other resources, such as the Boston Area Rape Crisis Center (BARCC), which has a 24-hour hotline at 1-800-841-8371. The BARCC hotline is staffed by knowledgeable sexual assault crisis counselors who also offer support and educational information for parents, family and friends. More information is available online at www.barcc.org.
Trauma can impact people differently. You may have a physical reaction, like changes in appetite, sleeping behavior or feeling physically ill. You may feel frustrated, irritable, nervous or even guilty, with rapid mood swings. You may find yourself worried about your alcohol intake or drug use as you try to wend your way through a difficult and painful situation. You could have difficulty concentrating or making decisions, burdened by questions of faith, and changes in your social behavior, including isolating yourself from others or finding it hard to be alone. All of this is within the range of normal and can vary from person to person.
You may even find yourself feeling unburdened in the immediate wake of the news and carrying on, perhaps with magnified resolve and strength, only to find days, weeks or months later that you're once again feeling deep feelings of sadness and fear, and that's normal too. Whether you need help immediately or in the future, compassionate and understanding people are always available to give you the help you need, when you need it. Also know that calling for support does not obligate you in any way. When you make a call to an anonymous crisis line, you are in control of how long you talk and what you choose to disclose. Maybe you need someone to reassure you, or maybe you need to reassure yourself that the support is there. Whatever you feel comfortable doing, know that the door is always open and it does not close behind you.
In addition to reaching out for confidential support, there are other ways you can take care of yourself when dealing with traumatic stress. Because responses to trauma can be physical, remember to slow down, breathe and drink water to help clean out your system. Get as much rest as possible, but also get exercise and stay active while knowing your limits. Also take care of yourself emotionally and socially. Connect with people you care about, try to avoid stressful situations and be patient with yourself. Reach out to your spiritual or faith community if it feels right to you, or talk to someone else you feel comfortable with, and let people know what you need. Don't be hard on yourself. Take time for yourself. A great resource for stress reduction strategies is www.helpguide.org.
Healing is not only seeking the support you feel that you need and taking care of yourself. Regular day-to-day activities may feel funny to you, or you may feel guilty enjoying yourself, but these are important steps in healing as well. It's OK to laugh. It's OK to go to a movie, play with your kids or a pet, or whatever you normally enjoy.
Wherever you are in your healing process, remember that people react differently to traumatic stress, remember to take care of yourself and that whatever you are experiencing is normal. Above all else, please remember: You don't have to go through this alone.

The baby boy taken from the family home by a male relative three weeks ago was reunited yesterday with his mother.
Five-month-old Caleb Edwards was handed over to his mother Thereese Roy, who got an anonymous tip that the child was at a newspaper office in San Fernando where the male relative and a State social worker, were being interviewed.
Roy, who last saw her baby on July 15, said she was taken on a "wild goose chase" by the social worker who first told her to come to Port of Spain yesterday morning, where her baby was being kept.
It was only late yesterday that Roy was allowed to take her baby home.
She said "it was ridiculous and unprofessional. You can't tell me to meet you in Port of Spain. If I had taken a taxi to go to Port of Spain, you would have had me on a wild goose chase. She (the social worker) didn't come to me. She went to (the newspaper) which was disgusting. It was only when I heard the baby crying on the phone that I realised she had the baby and the man was with her."
The Express attempted to contact Minister of Gender Affairs, Youth and Child Development Marlene Coudray, on the ethics and propriety of the social worker's actions, but failed.
However, the Ministry's Permanent Secretary Sandra Jones told the Express the social worker will be asked to write a report on the incident.
"I think it s a 'good news' story that the mother was reunited with the baby" said Jones.
Roy had last seen her son on July 15 when the relative picked him up from her home in Rio Claro. The man told Roy that he would return with the child the next day, but he never showed up.
Roy, who has three other children, later reported the child missing to the Rio Claro Police Station.
She said yesterday that she wanted no further action to be taken against the relative.
"I already went through enough. I am just happy to have my baby back. I don't want to go through any stress with these people again".

Don't call Dave Brat's win a victory for the Tea Party.
The economics professor's shocking primary victory over House Majority Leader Eric Cantor is undoubtedly a huge coup for Tea Party activists in Virginia.
But it's also a lot more than that, and framing his win in "Tea Party vs. Establishment" terms is a bit of an oversimplification. Brat said as much on Fox News after the results came in:
"It wasn't a contest between the Tea Party and the Republicans and all this," he said on Hannity, "although I had tremendous Tea Party support and just wonderful people in the Tea Party and grassroots helping me out. They're clearly responsible for the win. But I ran on the Republican principles."
Brat was unapologetic about the Republican Party moniker. But he also drew impassioned support from grassroots activists, many of whom eschew the R-word.
Virginia conservative grassroots activism predates the birth of the Tea Party by a long shot. And right-leaning activists in the Old Dominion are an ideologically diverse bunch. Their numbers include conservative Catholics, evangelical Christians, the very-much-alive vestiges of Ron Paul's 2012 presidential campaign and, of course, numerous Tea Party organizations.
This is the network that propelled Ken Cuccinelli to the Republican gubernatorial nomination, and these are the folks who came together behind Brat in Virginia's 7th Congressional District.
But while welcoming their support, Brat has taken care to emphasize his Republican bona fides. And he's had a secret weapon of sorts that helped him do this: The creed of the Republican Party of Virginia. The creed has six planks, including "that faith in God, as recognized by our Founding Fathers is essential to the moral fiber of the Nation" and "that the free enterprise system is the most productive supplier of human needs and economic justice." (You can read the whole thing here.)
Travis Witt, who chairs the Virginia Tea Party Patriots Federation and is a member of the Republican Party of Virginia State Central Committee (usually called State Central), pointed out that it's typical to read the creed aloud before county Republican Party meetings and at larger official Republican events. It's also read before State Central meetings, Witt added. As a document, it's a big part of Virginia Republican life.
Brat framed his campaign's messaging around this document, tapping into language that's very much ingrained in activists' understanding of why they do what they do.
"I struggle with individuals wanting to label him as a Tea Party candidate," said Witt, who supported Brat. "He was a man that was able to motivate grassroots. Who are the grassroots? People that work within the Republican Party."
James Parmelee, who heads Republicans United for Tax Relief and has been active in Virginia politics for a long time, said that in a way, the contest drew heat because of a conflict between an offshoot of a group founded by Cantor and activists who were irked that the majority leader's allies were looking to play on their turf.
In 2012, activists took over State Central and started using that clout to impact the party's nomination process. Grassroots activists in Virginia tend to prefer nominating conventions to primaries.
But more mainstream/Establishment/center-right Republicans prefer primaries, where nearly unelectable candidates like E. W. Jackson -- the Republican lieutenant governor nominee in 2013 who said President Obama "has Muslim sensibilities" -- are less likely to win.
Parmelee said that YG Virginia, a state-based offshoot of Cantor-founded YG Network, began working to unseat activist district chairmen who favored conventions over primaries.
"They picked a fight that they had no real interest in, they shouldn't have had any real interest in, and they got involved on the wrong side," Parmelee said. "And there was blowback."
The effort to take back State Central didn't work.
"Whether or not Cantor had anything to do with it is a point of debate," wrote D.J. Spiker at conservative Virginia blog Bearing Drift. "[Y]et by extension of the actions of his consultants, Eric Cantor was now even more of a target."
Spiker has more detail on the timeline of YG Virginia's efforts. The big picture, according to Parmelee: Politicos allied with Cantor went after conservative district chairmen, and they lost. Conservative activists in the state were angered by the group's work, and felt that it made Cantor fair game.
There's not total consensus on that. Others familiar with 7th district politics say the link between YG Virginia's actions and Cantor's defeat is tenuous at best, and that other factors played much bigger roles in his astonishing loss.
Regardless, it's an interesting facet of the story of Virginia's 7th Congressional District.
"The folks who took over State Central two years ago were not anti-Cantor," Parmelee said. "And they found themselves bearing the brunt of a Young Guns Virginia attack on them."
"I like Eric Cantor," Parmelee continued. "Eric Cantor has been a good conservative over the years. He's pushed a lot of good things. It was dismaying to a lot of people that he jumped in on the wrong side of this particular fight that he really shouldn't have been involved in. Dismayed is the right word to use. Why did he get involved in this?"
The fallout? Parmelee said that activists who might not have felt the ideological compulsion to go after Cantor decided to target him anyway. And in Brat they found a viable alternative.
"He seems like someone who would be an establishment candidate at any other time if he hadn't decided to run in the primary," said Will Estrada, a member of the Loudoun County Republican Committee and long-time conservative activist.
"I don't see Brat as a Ted Cruz or a Michele Bachmann at all," Estrada continued.
Brat might have earned and welcomed the support of Tea Party activists around the 7th district and the state of Virginia. But there's a lot more to his win than just that.

Now that the tax debate is out of the way, the members of Japan's Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) can get down to the real issues. Like discussing the possibilities of the country building a real, full-sized, working Gundam. This is no joke. Two members of the LDP want to take a serious look at what it would take to construct the two-legged, walking mech from the infamous, long-running Gundam anime series.
Beginning on Thursday, the LDP will hold a 12-hour marathon on Nico Nico, a Japanese video platform similar to YouTube, and two members of the party, Masaaki Taira and Hideki Niwa, will have a discussion titled "The Gundam Development Project." Also joining them will be Harutoshi Fukui, the writer for the Mobile Suit Gundam UC series of novels. It was estimated in 2008 that the cost to build a real working 60-foot tall Gundam, and not just a life-size statue like what was built in Odaiba, Tokyo, would cost around $725 million. But that is just the price for parts and materials, and doesn't include what it would cost to build such a ridiculous thing.
This display is most likely just an attempt for the LDP to attract a younger audience, mostly composed of science fiction and anime fans. It would become obvious fairly quickly that possibilities of building a walking, piloted humanoid robot, with arms and the ability to use weapons, are between slim and none.
[Via Geekosystem & ANN]
I would throw money at this so fast…
Oh man I remember this show from Toonami. Please make this a reality! Over a billion dollars for one? Totally worth it, Japan.
Oh God Atlast :P.
My money, ALL OF THEM, they are yours!!
Japan should make a kickstarter account and make this project. 😀
the current tech in our time cannot build such an advance mech like gundam bec. it needs advance mechanism through inside its inner frame
they could use this as weapons in war….
that will be EPIC!!!!!!!
It would be idiotic. Do you have any idea how much that would weigh? Or cost to power? The ones in-show used miniature nuclear reactors, which we are far from being able to produce, and were built of unrealistically lightweight and sturdy materials, which just don't exist in the real world.
ironman, just sayin'
Think again, Willian Gray! The US already has the miniature nuclear reactor technology. It's being on the TR-3B Aurora project, and each plane has 3 nuclear reactors on the triangular-shaped craft!!!
I'll only be able to die in peace, when this turns out to be real.
Call me when they build an Evangelion and not some boring Gundam.
nearly 1 billion dollars? f**king worth it.
Damn stupid! I don't want to see that! Get rid of the nuclear reactors! Get a life! Spend money on fixing the damn place!
" It would become obvious fairly quickly that possibilities of building a walking, piloted humanoid robot, with arms and the ability to use weapons, are between slim and none."
And the writer's great -great grandfather told the Wright Brothers that that contraption of theirs wouldn't fly.
So Cyber Men using NEET Otaku brains is out of the question. All that Chinese flesh and bone going against Coltan while Akihito's Skynet watches from above. LOVELY.
I think they should go the direction of armored core not gundam
agreed on the direction of armored core
they need to think of most efficient power plant, probably nuclear, and how to add the coolant for that plant, mobility, armor and big ass weapon.
the japanaese govt. has MOOOOOORE than enough money to build 5 of these things and the american govt already has 2 legged mechs that weve experimented with. the problem is we want to reach a level of warfare where human choice and possible insubbordination are not factors. we want to push a button and strike. thats it.

In New York, the average is 800 days and in Florida, where the "robo-signing" issue is particularly combative, it's 807.'' -- Sad to say it but this serves the banksters right.

(Portland, OR) – Breakside Brewery Founder, Ben Edmunds, and new Production Manager, Jacob Leonard, joined Beer O'Clock Radio this past Saturday to share some updates on the new facility slated to open this fall.
If you haven't read the BeerPulse piece from March, Breakside has been a small brewpub up to this point, producing 700 barrels last year. The company is about to change course drastically with the addition of a 30-barrel system (with 60-barrel fermenters and a 30-barrel fermenter) in PS Business Park Milwaukie near Highway 24.
Leonard says that the goal is to brew 5,000 barrels next year and double production in 2014. They'll eventually be able to max out production at 30,000 barrels annually before having to explore new options.
To help Breakside get there, the company signed with Maletis Beverage on Friday. Maletis will handle distribution duties for both draft and packages in Northwestern Oregon.
Breakside doesn't plan to start packaging until spring or early summer next year and will likely use a mobile bottling company at the start. The company hasn't committed to cans or bottles yet but would like to install a packaging line by the end of next year.
Lofty goals notwithstanding, the main priority, for now, is getting the brewhouse online and getting production batches out to the market. Leonard thinks this could happen around Thanksgiving. Doing so will help reduce stress on the existing brewpub system which is currently being pushed to the limits. The company plans to scale back production out of the brewpub to 450-500 barrels annually.
The new Breakside location will have 24 taps, primarily featuring beers brewed in-house.

Honey Mustard is the gnarliest of gnarly.
You can't eve taste the salad.
Have you tried ketchup?
Or BBQ sauce?
You have mighty thin skin.
This is a Food Forum and I own this forum
But if you want a salad dressing tip...... in the salad thread, pretty much every specifically stated that they use oil and red wine vinegar.
Can drop a little lemon or dijon in there if you feel like it.
Honey Mustard will destroy your pallette for the rest of the meal.
And Poppy Seed dressing should not even be legal.
And Russian dressing IS ketchup so you know.
Would you like more info?
Can also use 2%
Grab a bottle of Bernsteins Italian dressing in the bottle @ the grocery store gents. Thank me later.
PS. Honey mustard is disgusting.

Can anyone reccomend a good cheap garage in the NW London area where I can take it for a service and then MOT? also, both the wing mirrors have been damaged and are held in place by gaffer tape. They still work fine so its just a cosmetic issue, could this result in an MOT fail thanks H Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Has anyone upgraded the mint breeze package to move the reception to the beach? I really want to have both the ceremony and reception on the beach. I was looking at the sunset package, but since we are expecting 40+ people to attend, the extra charge p/p after the first 15 people is a little high.
Are there any prefered beach locations that are recommended for the ceremony?
What kind of flowers come with the mint package? My vision for the wedding is mostly white and/or creams with s few pops of colour for the bridesmaids dresses. It they are tropical flowers, can I have them changed to all white, or does that require an extra charge?
What kind of music is included in the package? Do they play for the ceremony and reception?
Can I sub the cake or photographer and save the money (we have a photographer friend hopefukly coming down) or do we get charged even if we dont want them? How are the photographers at the resort if we do end up using them?
Has anyone chartered a boat for their group? My fianc© wants to rent a boat for everyone as a thank you for them coming...
Thank you all so much! Any information is greatly appreciated. I really don't know what to do next
I can't tell you about upgrading the Mint Breeze to the beach because we decided to do it inside. It's going to be pretty hot in July and I'm thinking grandparents etc who aren't used to the heat are going to need some time in the AC after being outside for the ceremony.
As for flowers, the wedding coordinator told me that they can literally do anything you want, it will just be priced according to availability. Check out the photos on this thread (right hand side, recent images in this thread) and you will see from the pics that people have a wide range of flowers. I can email you what the WC sent me so you can see what they offer...she said also if I didn't like those, just pick other colors/flowers and send pics. Private message me your email address!
As for music, the mint breeze includes either a violin, flute or guitar (I think...?) for the ceremony, but this doesn't extend to the reception, although you can definitely rent any kind of music you want for that portion of the wedding. We are going with the ipod...just made a playlist and are going to plug it in during the reception (this option is free for the speakers etc).
I don't think you can substitute things for the cake...it's just a part of the package. As for photographers, they recommend their photographers because they have a contract with them, but you have to purchase packages from the company, it's not included! We are hiring a different photographer as well, so we paid for her room instead of paying the $500 vendors fee.
Hope that was helpful! Sorry I couldn't answer more!

Hi Mjones! After much deliberation, we decided to just go with the strawberry package...they really don't accommodate for anything unless you pay for the pricier packages (kinda irritated by it actually!). They won't even let you move to nearby palapas outdoors in rainy weather UNLESS you buy the strawberry package or have 50 or more guests. (They stick you in a banquet hall) which for us would be awkward because we have a very small group of 17. To answer your question... our WC quoted us $70/person to add on the beach reception ($26 for kids). Also FYI that the menu will be the banquet menu - surf and turf option is only on the strawberry package menu. Hope that helps
Hi ArtisticBride, can you let me know what the cost was to upgrade to the beach reception? I haven't chosen a wedding package yet since I'm hoping to be able to upgrade one of the cheaper packages to a beach reception. Thanks!!!
Posted 24 June 2013 - 09:28 AM
Thanks! I would love all white peonies so I'll have to ask them when they get back to me
I do know that peonies are one of the types of flowers they charge extra for... I sent a picture of a bouquet of roses and peonies and my wedding coordinator said it would cost about $50. I know some things are seasonal so maybe that would change the cost...
Posted 25 June 2013 - 09:30 AM
I was also thinking to get all peonies for my flower bouquet. Peonies don't grow in Mexico and are very pricey. Barcelo charged $35 in December for 1 steam and you need from 8 to 12 of them at least. Total price around $300/400. Way to pricey.
We decided to go with just white roses. Roses that they are using are fully opened and looks like peonies from far away and on the pictures ( See my pictures in my profile)

Oh good one! Your bouquet looks gorgeous! I want to do the same thing, all white flowers. How much did you pay for this bouquet?
Posted 25 June 2013 - 12:46 PM
I had white lilies and they were included in the strawberry package, I had them throw some purple in because it was one of my wedding colours.

Hello everyone,
I am on step 2, choosing the menu and cake.
Does anyone have a photo of the cake that came with their strawberry passion package? The one that feeds 10 people. I imagine it's one tier and very basic, which i'm totally fine with, just curious to see how some of them turned out.

text: Hey all, Steelhead rookie here (first fish this past week on the Klick). I'm newly relocated back to the PDX area and I want to fish the area rivers. I don't mind venturing out and fishing them on my own (I've been exploring the upper N. F. of the Lewis for trout) but I'd love to meet up with some other local steelheaders to further my knowledge of fly fishing for steelhead. I grew up fishing the Kalama, Washougal, and EF of the Lewis (spinners and spoons) and know some of the spots but as I said, I'm still not terribly Steelhead literate (fly speaking). I also am aware that the area rivers are VERY low and we need some rain to really get things cooking again. I'm not begging to see your favorite spots, learn your secret tactics, or any other possible inflammatory/suggestive responses that may occur as a result of this post. I just want to fish with others. I have several references on the boards of people that I have fished with before. I'm always willing to drive, bring the beer, and am a fun guy to fish with. Anyone care to head out this coming week and chase some steel? Or in the following weeks? Thanks!

"This kit is an awesome item! It was amazing to watch the transformation from caterpillars to beautiful butterflies! My son really enjoyed watching this!"
"What an amazing experience! Can't wait to do it again!"
See the Amazing Butterfly Life Cycle
The Butterfly Pavilion With 2 Live Cups of Caterpillars gives children, students and families an unforgettable opportunity to watch caterpillars change into chrysalides and then emerge as beautiful Painted Lady Butterflies. Raise and feed your very own butterflies and then release them into the wild! The entire transformation from caterpillar to adult butterfly takes about three weeks, depending on the temperature and humidity in your area.
The Butterfly Pavilion With 2 Live Cups of Caterpillars Includes:
- Pop-up, reusable 2-foot tall habitat perfect for butterfly viewing in the home or classroom!
- Super clear mesh for better butterfly viewing
- Feeding Pipette
- Complete Caterpillars to Butterflies Instruction Guide
- Two cups of 10 live caterpillars (5 caterpillars in each cup) - 6 of the 10 caterpillars are guaranteed to develop into perfect specimens
Observe An Amazing Transformation
10 caterpillars will arrive in 2 clear plastic cups (5 caterpillar in each cup) with all of the nutritious food they need to grow into adult butterflies. Place the cups in a safe place away from direct sunlight. The caterpillars will remain in the cups and will eat, spin silk and grow to TEN times their original size! After seven to ten days they will hang upside down in a "j" shape and then harden into chrysalides.
Your Very Own Butterflies
The Butterfly Pavilion Habitat is a reusable, 2-foot tall cylindrical mesh container perfect for up close butterfly viewing! It conveniently hangs from the Velcro strap or can be placed on a table or desktop. When not in use, it folds flat for easy storage. Once the chrysalides have hardened, gently move them to the pop-up mesh butterfly home. It will take about seven to ten more days for them to complete the transformation to adult butterflies.
Once your butterflies emerge, children will love feeding them! The habitat's see-through mesh and zippered entry allow for easy maintenance. To make the butterfly nectar, thoroughly mix 3 teaspoons of sugar with 1 cup of water. Place fresh flowers in the habitat for your butterflies to rest on and then use the feeding pipette included to sprinkle the nectar on the flowers daily. You can also feed your butterflies using our adorable new Insect Lore Butterfly Feeder. Watch your butterflies eagerly sip the nectar with their long proboscises. Butterflies also love to feed from fresh slices of watermelon and oranges!
Let Your Butterflies Go!
Enjoy your butterflies for a few days, and then experience the excitement of letting them go to continue their amazing life cycle. Release your butterflies within a week of their emergence from the chrysalides when temperatures are above 55 degrees. Simply take the butterfly habitat out to your yard, unzip the cover, and let your butterflies go. Butterflies will often visit on little hands and faces before flying away. Watch for your butterfly friends, as they may decide to remain in your garden for a few days!
Shipping: Live caterpillars are shipped to destinations within the Continental USA and Alaska. We cannot ship live caterpillars to Hawaii.
Manufacturer Recommended Age: 4 and up with adult supervision.

Glossary of Terms Used For the Description of Condition
In a bid to avoid any confusion NICHOLNACK have standardized the terms we employ to describe the condition of our antique and vintage ceramic items.
Item in new condition in original box, generally the box will show the signs or wear, but the item itself will be as it originally was when it left the factory.
Item is in NEW condition as it was when it left the factory. There will be no crazing if this term is used and no wear.
Item may have some minor wear to glaze and paint work and the item may be crazed, BUT not STAINED. In most cases items described as being in excellent condition will not have been used or have had infrequent use.
There could be some visible signs of minor Wear, or some crazing. There may well be staining or the odd fleabite. Any flaw will be described so if there is and wear of a fleabite it will be DISCLOSED. Generally though, items I describe as being in this condition are still good for display and only the most fastidious should be put off by this condition
This is the worst condition that I will bother to sell an item in, all flaws will be described, but collectors should be aware that these items are really only being listed as they are rarity mean that many collectors will put up with the flaws to have an example of this item.
I will always describe crazing. A HINT of crazing means there is the odd isolated craze line. SOME crazing will mean that there are lesions of crazing but it is not all over. ALL OVER crazing will mean that there is all over crazing, but it is not stained. DISCOLOURED crazing will mean that it is heavy all over crazing with discoloration to that crazing.
I generally will not offer items that have cracks unless they are very rare and I feel the item is still salable as they are just hard to come by.
Firing cracks are under the glaze cracks from the time of production. I have no qualms with selling items with firing cracks, but I will describe them if they are large or significant. It is my belief that if the manufacture could live with the firing flaw then why should we make a song and dance about it today.
If these are large and noticeable we will describe them, but on minor production flaws may not be described. I do not bother to mention marks from the kiln furniture. On the production of some makers' - Royal Doulton, Royal Winton and Clarice Cliff come to mind - there are three small dimples or diverts on the underside from small stilts or kiln furniture used during firing. I do not bother to mention these dimples; they are an integral part of manufacturing process, as without the use of this kiln furniture these items would not exist.
From time to time we will get the odd item professionally restored – we get very little restored as it is very expensive to have good repair. A good repair is a work of art. It is our policy to disclose any restoration that we are aware of. This is where we can get in trouble, sometimes we just don't see repairs, we buy items in good faith and sometimes they have been restored and we just don't know. We offer a no questions asked guarantee on our items, so please email us, we do not want unhappy clients. There is a note I must add here, if you treat any item you purchase off us with a paint stripper or decalcifying agent and a repair is found the guarantee is void. Items that are returned to us must come back in the condition that they where sent out.
While all care is taken in the description and our photos, we are only human so sometimes we may miss a flaw. If you feel that we have misrepresented an item by erring in our description we will give a full refund on the purchase price on receiving the item back in the condition that it was sent out. If we agree with your claim we will not only refund the purchase price, but all of your out of pocket expenses, this includes postage charges. We only put two provisos on this guarantee:
You must contact us within 7 days of receiving the item.
Item MUST be in the same condition it was when we posted it.

My fifth-grade teacher, Ms. Ann Landers, had a tree house in her classroom.
Built high in the far corner, a polished wooden ladder led to a king-size, well-worn mattress and a treat for the first few students who completed the daily assignment correctly. Looking down on the rest of the classroom, we read up there, passed notes and bounced around in a general state of superiority. Getting to spend time in the tree house was better than pizza in the cafeteria on Fridays, recess or room mother birthday cupcakes.
There is not one, but two, secret tree house lofts in the house for sale at 1016 Clifton Lane in Green Hills.
Set a few blocks to the right of Granny White Pike just before it turns into 12th Avenue, 1016 Clifton Lane was designed in 1968 by Nashville architect Clay Hickerson for his father, engineer Faulkner Hickerson. The elder Hickerson took his son

There are hundreds of varieties of sweet, mild, and hot peppers to grow in your garden and a pepper for every culinary use.
After tomatoes, the pepper is the most popular vegetable grown in most gardens (although it's technically a fruit). Every gardener seems to have a favorite, whether it's mild, hot, incredibly hot, sweet, yellow, red, purple, brown, or just a traditional green bell.
But given the same growing conditions, peppers can be much fussier than tomatoes. Even though the two are frequently grown together, slight changes in your local weather or rainfall can have significant impact on your pepper plants – anything from slowing their growth to killing them – while your tomatoes may continue to thrive.
Peppers are native to Mexico, Central America and South America, which will give you a clue in creating conditions favorable to growth. Plants native to that part of the world thrive on lots of sunlight, very warm temperatures and dry air. Not much has changed from the pepper plant's perspective in spite of hundreds of years of breeding and cross breeding by humans.
From Wikipedia: "The misleading name "pepper" (pimiento in Spanish) was given by Christopher Columbus upon bringing the plant back to Europe. At that time peppercorns, the fruit of Piper nigrum , an unrelated plant originating from India, were a highly prized condiment; the name "pepper" was at that time applied in Europe to all known spices with a hot and pungent taste and so naturally extended to the newly discovered Capsicum genus. The most commonly used alternative name of the plant family, "chili", is of Central American origin. Bell peppers are botanically fruits, but are generally considered in culinary contexts to be vegetables."
Start peppers from seed indoors
Pepper plants bought at a nursery will sometimes mysteriously wither and die a few weeks after you transplant them to your garden. Assuming they are disease free, the culprit could be the change in weather conditions, light exposure, soil pH, moisture, or nutrient levels (fertilization). The best way to insure success for your pepper plants is to start peppers from seed indoors about 8 weeks before the last frost in your area. Many seed packages will recommend a start date 4-6 weeks before last frost, but I've found the extra weeks indoors makes the plants more hardy and able to withstand most of what your local outdoor conditions may throw at them.
Keep the soil in the starter pots as warm as possible (between 80-85 degrees) to insure quick seed germination. Peppers do best when they get off to a quick start.

Starting seeds indoors
How to save seeds from your garden (peppers are one of the easiest)
Transplanting peppers to your garden bed
One week before planting, it's essential that you harden off pepper seedlings. Transplanting them directly to your garden from under your grow lights, window sill, or the plant nursery can be lethal. They've been indoors in very controlled, consistently warm, windless conditions and now they're subject to swings in temperature, wind, moisture, and new soil.
To harden off peppers, leave them on your porch or other sheltered outdoor space for at least one week, avoiding direct sunlight until two or three days before transplanting. Don't feed the plants during this time and reduce the amount of water they've been used to. Keep the soil moist, but not saturated.
Wait to plant peppers until nighttime temps are consistently over 60 degrees (15.5 celsius) – usually 2-3 weeks after your last frost date. Plant peppers in a location that gets full sun all day. If that's impossible, pick a location that gets sun in the morning until at least mid afternoon (some late afternoon shade can actually be beneficial).
Create a hole at least twice as large as the root ball and load the area around the roots with compost. Set the plant a little deeper in the hole than it was in the pot. Backfill with soil. Remove any flower buds at this time, as the immature plant won't be able to hold the peppers. This will also encourage the plant to send out deeper roots and produce more flowers, which means a bigger, healthier plant with lots of peppers.
Space pepper plants at least twelve inches apart (depending on its mature size) and mulch to stabilize the soil temperature around the roots. Add additional compost around each plant's root zone (but not touching the stem) every four weeks. Little else in the way of nutreints is needed, but if necessary, give them a feeding once a month of liquid fish emulsion to give them a boost – but be careful here, because this is a nitrogen heavy liquid fertilizer and too much nitrogen will create spindly, leafy growth and a plant unable to support the fruit.
After planting, pinch off the first flowers (I now it's difficult, but it should be done). This encourages deeper root growth, earlier fruit production, and a healthier plant.
Peppers are sensitive to cool temps
Peppers need warm soil and air temperatures to thrive and you'll notice almost immediately if they're unhappy in the garden. Plants which seem to stop growing or begin to wilt are many times responding to air and soil temps which are too cool. Peppers grow best when daytime temps are in the 80-85 degree range and nightime temps are around the 70 degree mark. Frost is an absolute killer for them. If you experience a cool early season, cover the peppers with milk jugs to keep them warm until temperatures rise. Floating row covers are a good option, too. The warmer you keep the plant at night, the more growth you'll see.
If you live in Northern latitudes with late-to-rise soil temps, try covering your garden bed with black garden mulch for one week prior to transplanting. The black plastic will seal in the heat and warm the soil about ten degrees. If you want to leave it in place, cut a hole in the plastic before planting each pepper.
Watering peppers
Peppers don't need loads of water, so give them one deep watering (one inch of water) each week and they'll be fine. Too much water increases the chance of fungal infection and too little water may result in bitter fruit. Water the roots, not the foliage – this is really important as many fungal diseases of peppers and tomatoes are encouraged by wet foliage. Mulching the root zone helps retain moisture in dry weather.
Diseases of peppers
Most diseases of peppers are bacterial or fungal, usually caused by too much moisture and consistently wet foliage and fruit. It can also be caused by the previous year's infected crop, as bacteria and fungi frequently overwinter in the soil. Crop rotation reduces the chance for infection, but don't follow tomatoes with peppers as they are vulnerable to many of the same diseases.
If you have consistent problems with these diseases, grow resistant varieties (symbols indicating resistance are on plant tags and seed catalogs).
The most common pepper diseases (click links for images)
Anthracnose infection appears on fruit as soft, dark watery spots
Bacterial spot appears as yellowish, green raised spots on young leaves. Dark spots with light-colored centers appear on older leaves and fruit
Early blight appears as dark spots on leaves, stems, and/or fruit, eventually killing the plant
Verticillium wilt appears as discoloration on lower leaves first and moves up through the plant
Mosaic Virus appears as dark and light splotches on the leaves of young plants. Later, they curl and wrinkle and fruit becomes bitter.
If you spot any of these diseases, remove all infected leaves, stems and fruit immediately and dispose – do not compost.
Harvesting peppers
All peppers first appear on the plant as green peppers. As they mature they take on the characteristics of the mature fruit: sweet, hot, mild, red, yellow, orange, brown, purple, etc. They can be eaten anytime after they appear to be full size, but the sugars and heat don't enter the fruit significantly until they take on the mature size and color, at least 8 weeks after transplanting. It's actually a good idea to harvest some of the peppers early, as it will signal the plant to produce more fruit.
I've learned the hard way that one should use a heavy duty scissors or knife to cut the peppers from the plant, instead of trying to snap them off. When I'm impatient or lazy about this, I've ended up with half the plant in my hand and immature peppers lost. The plants are remarkably easy to break, considering the weight of the fruit.
If you're saving pepper seeds, save the seed from the first pepper that grows to perfection. This is the seed best adapted to your climate and soil. Saving pepper seeds is incredibly easy. Just take out the core of the pepper, separate the seeds and let them dry on a paper towel for a few days. Then mark a plain white envelope with the type of pepper you took the seeds from and the date and year you harvested it. Place the seeds in the envelope and put the envelope into an airtight plastic jar (like a caning jar). Store in the refrigerator until next spring. Pepper seeds remain viable up to three years.
Green, immature peppers can be set next to apples to ripen indoors. Because peppers are fruit, the ethylene gas that ripe apples give off triggers the peppers to set color and sugar.
Companion plants for peppers
Peppers like the company of carrots, tomatoes and onions, and herbs like parsley and basil.

In 2004, Hewlett-Packard Co.'s former chief executive officer Carly Fiorina hired Marcela Perez de Alonso to head human resources. In February 2005, board members fired Fiorina.
Shortly thereafter, the highly admired Hewlett-Packard (HP) became the subject of criminal investigations and public criticism. Not the best time to be the top human resources executive.
Yet, when Mark Hurd came on board as CEO in April 2005, Perez de Alonso prevailed as a trusted team player—giving both leaders a head start in a relentless drive for efficiency.
Hurd "not only supports us, but relies on us to help the business grow," says Perez de Alonso. It's a mandate she takes seriously: Pending regulatory approval, 3Com will become the latest in a string of 39 acquisitions. Perez de Alonso integrated workers from those companies into the computing, printing and technology services giant with about 321,000 employees in 170 countries—including thousands with HR responsibilities—and fiscal 2009 revenue of $114.6 billion.
Early training in organizational psychology, the scientific study of solutions to human problems in work, proved to be fine preparation for an efficiency campaign. Ann M. Livermore, executive vice president of HP's enterprise business, finds Perez de Alonso "astute and quick in terms of her perception of strengths of business leaders," sometimes accurately assessing job candidates in five or 10 minutes.
HP's Chilean-born vice president of HR began as an HR generalist with a Chilean startup bank. A recruiter from Citibank, now Citigroup, came calling, offering the irresistible lure of international assignments. She has worked in Florida, New York and Mexico. "My boss said, 'You should go and run a business; get out of your comfort zone,' " Perez de Alonso recalls. She did, serving as a division head for Citibank responsible for showing a profit. Such positions are vital for top HR leaders, she insists, because they teach "how to combine business outcomes with HR outcomes."
This insight helped Perez de Alonso contribute to HP's restructuring. While paring more than 15,000 jobs, the overhaul gave business-unit leaders more authority in operations, supply chain management and sales, for instance, and bolstered global shared services, including HR.
HP's largest acquisition, with EDS, came in 2008 and added about 139,000 employees. John M. Renfro, HP vice president of global workforce strategy and planning, lauds Perez de Alonso for assimilating these holdings with HP's culture. He admires her for building workforce planning and talent management systems—the latter includes career development and performance management closely tied to incentives—that permit managers to drive productivity with rigor. Perhaps as a result of such efficiency, HP had no layoffs attributable to the recession, and its stock, at $52.24 on Jan. 12, was near a 2007 high above $53. However, most employees took a 2009 cut in base pay; at year end, they received a supplemental one-time bonus equal to the reduction.
In June 2009, Perez de Alonso launched a tool that she claims will precisely predict productivity drivers. HP's "HR Optimization Model" features cost, productivity, quality and employee engagement metrics. "Is the workforce producing the results we expect?" she asks. If not, "Anyone can sit in front of a screen and look at all these variables and do a diagnostic," she explains. "You can sit down with a business leader and say, 'We can optimize your workforce to deliver those results.' " The tool helped earn Perez de Alonso the Society for Human Resource Management's 2009 Human Capital Leader of the Year Award.
"I not only think about how much we could do to help business grow, but how much we can grow the people," she reflects. "I have passion for combining both."

With so many sexually transmitted diseases being spread from partner to partner because of the acceptableness of having multiple sex partners throughout life, more and more people are choosing safe sex or abstinence.
Not only is there the serious risk of acquiring HIV/AIDS by having sex with someone, who has a disease, with the increase in cases of CA-MRSA (Community Acquired), those who are sexually active with people at risk for MRSA are wondering if this bacterial infection is transmitted through sex. (What to Do If You Contract a MRSA Infection?)
MRSA isn't commonly transmitted through sexual contact, but it can be, depending on the location of the infection and it takes more than a condom to protect from MRSA during sex. (Sex spreads MRSA infection – USATODAY.com)
Bacterial Spread And Sexual Contact
During sexual contact there is often intimate contact with a partner in addition to contact with bedding and clothing. When a person has been diagnosed with MRSA it can be a localized infection or it can be from an infection that has spread throughout the body to organs and even has infected the blood.
With a healthy person the good bacteria that are also part of the natural skin flora will keep the harmful bacteria in check. When illness, medical treatments, antibiotics, or even excessive use of anti-bacterial products cause good bacteria to be destroyed, the harmful bacteria will thrive and cause illness.
Spread Of MRSA During Sex
MRSA is spread during sex with contact with the following:
- Infected rash, sore, abrasion, cut, etc. on skin
- Fluid from an infected boil, carbuncle, or abscess
- Clothing or surfaces that the bacteria came in contact with
- Bedding and towels used by an infected person
- Infections on genitals
- Oral MRSA infections
Partners of people with MRSA can still enjoy sexual contact and intimacy by taking some precautions.
Preventing The Spread During Sex
Following guidelines for preventing the spread of MRSA (MRSA Guide: Preventing) will keep the bacteria from spreading from an infected partner to an uninfected partner. One of the best ways to prevent the spread of the bacteria is for the uninfected person to have a strong immune system and the person infected should be in treatment with a healthcare professional. Other ways to prevent the spread of this type of infection includes the following:
- Avoid direct contact with infected area
- Cover all abrasions and breaks in the skin
- Have any suspicious skin infection looked at by a doctor
- Abstain when the infection is on genitals
Commonly this type of infection is not spread through sexual contact. MRSA is not considered a sexually transmitted disease because it is spread in so many other ways.
Sexually Transmitted Diseases And MRSA
Sexually transmitted diseases (STD's – cdc.gov) are diseases that are commonly spread through intimate contact. These diseases may also be spread from mother to baby during birth. Though MRSA can be spread during sexual contact, it is commonly spread other ways. This bacterial infection is highly contagious and the bacteria are extremely adaptable and highly resilient. It can be spread in medical facilities and in the community. It can be through direct or indirect contact.
STD's are spread through direct contact with bodily fluids associated with sexual contact, including oral sex.
It can be safe to have sex with someone with MRSA especially if the precautions are followed. Additional, talking to a doctor about more ways to prevent the spread would be helpful. Last but not lease, being aware of symptoms of MRSA will allow it to be even safer to have sex with someone with this type of bacterial infection.

St. Sabas, a leader of the monastic movement, was a very important person in Jerusalem during the Middle Ages. Recently a lead seal, bearing his image and dating to the 13th century, was discovered during an archaeological dig in the Bayit Vegan neighborhood of Jerusalem. (photo)
Used to seal letters and documents with wax, the seal features the "saint's image, wearing a toga-like himation and holding a cross in his right hand." On the reverse side, the seal says "This is the seal of the Laura of the Holy Sabas." The Laura refers to the Monastery of St. Sabas, known as the "Great Laura" in the Byzantine period.

Chart Of The Decade: European Banks Fleeing German Banks Like Rats From A Sinking Ship
from the Lee Adler, Wall Street Examiner
Smaller banks often deposit funds in bigger banks. The level of banks' deposits at other banks is a reflection of their confidence in the system as a whole. The ECB measures and is kind enough to share with us the level of bank deposits in other banks in Europe, breaking the data down by country and the Eurozone as a whole.
Banks have been pulling their money out of other banks in Europe like rats deserting a sinking ship since 2012. Even the advent of QE in 2014 only slowed the stampede. European banks are still gettin' out of Dodge.
Current data is as of month end April. Since June of 2012 when European interbank deposits peaked, the banks have pulled €1.28 trillion or 19.4% of their total deposits from other European banks. That's an annual rate of decline of 5.2%. In the past year they have withdrawn €164 billion at an annual rate of decline of 2.8%. And the number is only that good because of a seasonal dead cat bounce in April.
The picture is even worse for Germany, with its biggest bank, Deutsche Bank on the ropes. European banks have pulled €243 billion, or 16.2% of their total deposits from German banks since the 2012 peak. That's an annual rate of decline of 4.3%. But unlike in the rest of the European banking system, the withdrawals from German banks have accelerated in the past 13 months, falling by 8.9%. That's more than triple the rate of decline from 2012-2015. And it's more than triple the rate of decline from European banks in total.
Frankfurt, we have a problem.

Scheduled Flight To Old Crow
I was on a scheduled flight to Old Crow with my airline and I enjoyed the flight. The runway was way bigger then I needed, in my Dash 7. I landed and had to turn around at the far end of the runway and back-taxi to parking. I noticed that the entire town is about 25 feet off the side of the runway. The main road for the town led right on to the parking ramp. I made it in and noticed some sand blowing around. Good flight.

Evolution family:Mienfoo> Mienshao at level 50
Of all the pure Fighting-types in Black and White, Mienfoo and Mienshao are the most elegant. Although Fighting-types are normally purely offensive, the Regenerator ability works beautifully in conjunction with Mienshao's awesome speed stat. Paired with the Bug-type move U-turn, Mienshao can function as a scout for your team, simultaneously doing damage with U-turn and regaining health while switching out.

Are there any plans to make 'name' a standard attribute for all tags similar to 'id' so that unlike 'id' which needs to be unique within the document the 'name' needs to only be locally unique. Thus one can use something like: document.names.s1.p to access element id e3 in this document: ....

   .... Thanks. OmarReceived on Sunday, 28 September 2008 20:34:42 UTC
