GREEEEEAAATTT…..Now promoting an immoral, disgusting public display of someone's own business that no one wants to see a "Best Bet"? You in the media can try to indoctrinate us to have an 'open mind' all that you want, but the smart people left in society won't be moved any more than you will. Call me a bigot or a homophobe (which by the way I'm NOT afraid of you) or uneducated all you want……the truth still isn't on your side. Homosexuality is an immoral lifestyle with inevitable consequences that doesn't deserve anyone's respect, let alone a showing of 'pride'.

I can't believe people like bobo still exist. Go get some chic fill a and crawl back under the rock where you live. It must be a sad place there where you have to worry about the way people live there lives, when I can guarantee yours is not perfect. Let people celebrate and have a good time just because you don't support does not mean you should try and ruin it for the people that do. They would not have this event unless a lot of people wanted it and cared about it

Ummmh, what "consequence" would that be? We are all God's children so don't drag out old tired religious rhetoric.

Yes. Created right here on MMi. You can Mod your keypads now.
View the creation tread here.. > iPhoneShop tools
Get the ones we have created! Here > KeyPadMods
pf edit: we now have a guide up on editing iPhone artwork files here!
nice work guys! about to try it now...
Only small things I noticed are the all blue rectangle around the "active" keys, and when you press a key there is a small bit of white ghosting. But man... my iPhone looks sweet now. It looks even better on than in the pictures!
Awesome work.
Mmm. Ya I noted that Poetic. I scripted these and photoshop wont recognize the buttons just the overall image. So it was doing a gradient the might not perfectly match the underlaying layer. Its hard to check 100 plus images.. But If I know the exact glitchs.. and screenshots.. I can manually Fix them and update to match!
ps. Thanks Poetic. I'll look into this more. I was excited to launch =)
pss. Your phone looks dooooooooope
I love it.
looks awsome on my iphone! yeah that inverted one looks bad ***!
i want more
I did the install and now i cant send sms messages it freezes up toward the end of the upload,,is anyone else having this problem?
went back to install the default keyboard and now its fine.
That should have nothing to do with the keypad graphic. Perhaps you were having a network issue at the same time?
This is awesome work. Big thanks to LS
soon we should see full themes!!!! all backgrounds are gonna be customizable and then someone will make a simple native app to have them all and it will be the shapeshifter of the iphone. We will be able to download thm files and have them do everything for us! soon i hope! I want a all black and orange theme...
I got the the blue keyboard on my phone and it looks great! great work everyone. But i noticed near the bottom of the key when its enlarged while pressing down it has some whiteness at the bottom. In landscape and portrait mode. Is this normal?
included a screen shot..
Loring is working on an updated version.
hey Loring, any progress on the white ghosting thing?
oh okay good to hear! thanks guys
umm im pretty sure you can't as of right now. Buy you can ssh it into your phone very easily with like fugu if your a mac person. And then restart ur phone and it works great I did that. Any other ssh client works too
What does ssh mean? And do you think it will be something I can do over customize?
I've put up a guide on how to edit the artwork files here.

Nike LunarEclipse + 2 (Men's)
A different pair of feet, a different shoe mould, a different fit but the same great experience. The LunarEclipse+ 2 is set to offer runners the perfect customized fit with the introduction of Dynamic Fit Technology.
Created in Nike's Innovation Kitchen and Sports Research Lab, Dynamic Fit is designed to eliminate the space between the foot and the shoe for a customized fit that feels like a 'second skin,' no matter the foot size or shape.
Dynamic Fit technology features soft material that wraps like fingers around the mid-foot and arch for a glove-like fit. It is believed that the perfect fit can be achieved with a simple motion of tightening the laces, which are connected to the Dynamic Fit mid-foot cage for the perfect wrap.
Pushing innovation limits to help runners achieve their full potential, the LunarEclipse+2 also features ultra-soft Lunarlon cushioning for a smooth ride and the Dynamic Support stability system that works in tandem with the Lunarlon cushioning for an easy, gradual transition and smooth ride.
Dynamic Support is a two-part midsole system working in tandem with the ultra-plush Lunarlon cushioning to provide stability and support. Opposing wedges of foam move the runner from soft to stable as the heel lands and the foot flexes down, providing for an easy, gradual transition and a smooth ride.
The Fitsole 4 sock liner provides extra support and comfort by combining two densities of foam - one more resilient, one a little softer for increased smooth transition. The LunarEclipse+2 also features a TPU heel cup that works with the heel clip for fit and support.
The LunarEclipse+2 will be available in Nike stores across Malaysia at MYR 519.

To assist in the development of a dialogue concerning harmonized food traceability requirements around the world.
Expected Outcomes
A benchmark report summarizing the existing global food traceability standards and regulations, with observations concerning gaps and duplication.
It will be necessary to limit the time and scope of investigation geographically. The investigation will start with the regulatory environment regarding food traceability in major OECD exporting nations such as: Austria, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada,China, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Norway, Russia, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, and United States.
The assessment would encompass national traceability regulations and requirements used for recalls, animal and plant health controls, and foodborne contamination.
Conduct a review of public domain information that is available on the regulations and industry policies specifically concerning food traceability, both for domestic and imported foods. Provide details of how commercial businesses are expected to fulfill these regulations and policies.
Interviews with a limited number of regulators and international organizations to gain deeper understanding of the rationale and reasons for their traceability rules and policies. Update this information with any plans expressed for near term (less than 2 years) changes being considered.
Summarize the information by country and provide a relative ranking of all countries surveyed.
The project will require food traceability research expertise and access to the breadth
of current food traceability policies and regulations for several nations, as well as
knowledge of creating relative rankings on traceability between nations.
The research for this project is complete and we expect to publish the results in early fall 2014

Witches and wizards often reveal themselves to each other in public by wearing purple or green, often in combination. In Britain (and much of Europe) purple has an association with both royalty and religion. Purple dyes, being costly, were once worn only by those who could afford them; bishops' rings are traditionally set with amethysts. Green has long had a supernatural connection in the UK. Superstition says that it ought to be worn with care; the fairies are supposedly possessive of it, as it is their proper colour. It ought never to be worn at weddings, due to a further association with misfortune and death. Green is the colour of much 'Dark' magic; of the 'Dark Mark', of the luminescent potion in which Voldemort conceals one of his Horcruxes, of many 'Dark' spells and curses, and of Slytherin house. The combination of purple and green, therefore, is suggestive of both sides of magic: the noble and the ignoble, the helpful and the destructive.

...Well, more or less. It might only have two original members, but virtually the last punk band to not cash in on the 'reunion' thing yet has finally come back. Guitarist Greg Ginn and one-time vocalist Ron Reyes have been releasing a steady stream of singles this summer in preparation for the first 'official' Black Flag album since 1985's 'In My Head.'
And with 22 songs, it seems clear the band will be returning somewhat to their hardcore punk roots. One of the singles, 'Down in the Dirt' is more akin to the group's mid-80's sludge-metal, but the others are firmly rooted in the fast-and-loud. The album will, of course, be released on the band's own SST Records.
Another collection of Black Flag survivors (including THREE original members) are calling themselves FLAG and playing the band's classics, but Ginn and company are the first to release new material. Longest-running vocalist Henry Rollins, however, is not involved in either project.
Unfortunately for Michiganders, the closest they'll be coming to the mitten is Tennessee, but more dates might show up. For now, you'll have to be satisfied with this:
...and this:

How Many People with no health care have Cable TV!
A guest at Rep Gary Miller's town hall on August 25, 2009 at the Nixon Library asks "how many people complaining that they don't have health care have cable TV?" She wept as she spoke. "I fear for my children...I fear for my parents" The illegal families of Anchor babies are covered, what about our children that we have been paying for insurance for years!

It seems like yours was much more constructive than mine.
Course I didn't agree with either speaker, so that may have had something to do with it. I look forward to watching all the videos.

Seems the longer the debate goes on, the more great points are coming to light. What an excellent video. The cable TV thing is so true.. and IPhones, and Benz or BMW's, et cetera.
And oh those "Anchor Babies." I'm as compassionate as the next person, but America has a front door and a proper path to citizenship...

JACG, it was fun being there because the spirit in the room was palpably patriotic. But it is important for all of us to populate our town halls, especially when our reps disagree with us. We must educate THEM the most about the evils of Obamacare. And about the virtue of representing the wishes of one's constituents.

Compassion is important. It's one of the highest of human virtues. However, healthcare is not a right. And government must be constrained by the Constitution.
Of course, taking it a step further, and suggesting that a broke and broken system be trusted to manage healthcare is absurd.
Good video.

I had never thought that much about it but, as a public health nurse for several years I can tell you I had already taken note of the fact every single person I did a home visit on their family had cable/satellite television service.
I had literally thought in the past,"They always seem to have money for beer and cable tv but, can't afford to see (or even get themselves to) the doctor?

I hear a lot about rights, that aren't. Seems that when someone wants something he can't have or can't afford, it becomes a "right." Some folks feel "entitled" to this and that. Yeah, right.

Good for that woman, she is so right.
The Anchor baby thing is such a good point, Opus; My sis volunteers at a hospital where docents are there to inform illegals about how to get freebies..it's just awful. We Americans who pay get zip.

I haven't been able to watch the video yet, but your comments are spot on.
I pay $93 a month for healthcare because I don't get it through my job. It was a priority for me to have healthcare, so I had to cut back on things. I only recently got a cell phone (mostly for work) because I could not afford one before and I have recently cut out cable (which ran me $50 a month).
I tell people all the time that it can be done, but you just need to make it a priority.
I used to work at the library, and no joke, homeless people would walk in with iphones.
If it was important to them, then they would find a way to get it. They just feel entitled, especially if they have kids. "Oh, my poor kids can't have health care because I can't afford it." To which I have to ask - why do you have kids if you can't afford things for them? And why should I have to pay for their kids?
I worked hard. I bought my own insurance because it was important to me. I cut some extra things out so I could afford it. And now all of these people want it for free and think I'm "heartless" because I don't want them to have it. I want them to have healthcare - just work for it and pay for it like I did. It's not hard.

Wo, what frosts me is that people feel they have a "right" to the work and intellectual property of people who have worked all their lives to become doctors. No. Doctors offer a service. Pay for it. Or save and buy insurance to do so. If we just open up insurance companies to competition across state lines, the fees will go down.

Z, that anchor baby thing needs to stop.
- August 26, 2009 at 9:17 AM
- Opus #6 said...
Hazaa, good point. Homeless with iphones is a perfect example of mixed-up priorities. It is not fair to make the responsible ones pay for everything.
Maybe we need to expand the Medicaid program to cover more people. That doesn't mean we need to junk the greatest health care system in the world.

Schmidt-Wilk, Jane D.
The Maharishi Corporate Development Program: growth of experience and understanding in international top management teams
Order No. 9703935
Popular reports indicate that training in meditation is being introduced into corporations worldwide, yet systematic analyses of such programs are rare. Three case studies document the experiences and perceptions of members of top management teams who learned the Maharishi Transcendental MeditationÎ technique in the context of corporate-supported programs. The cases were generated using semi-structured interviews based on open-ended questionnaires conducted with 24 persons in managerial positions from a Norwegian company in the oil and gas industry, a British computer sales subsidiary, and a Swedish firm in the field of power transmission, and their consultants.
The study revealed the series of decisions that the managers undertook in authorizing and sponsoring the Maharishi Corporate Development Program and in their personal decisions and strategies about when, where and how often to practice the Transcendental Meditation technique and how to interpret its effects. The managers indicated that (1) their personal experiences resulting from practice of the Transcendental Meditation technique and (2) systemic development of the management team were important factors in their decision to practice this technique on a regular basis.
Individual-level changes reported across the three cases included improved mental functioning, health and health-related habits, work relations, and performance, emotional growth and more enjoyable family life, which contribute to development of the management team. Team-level changes reported across the three cases included improved communication, increased mutual acceptance and awareness of company needs and values, fewer arguments, move to fact-based decision-making, greater trust, openness, and happiness, and greater team cohesiveness and alignment.
The personal outcomes reported by the managers are consistent with extensive published findings on the Transcendental Meditation program in the general population and indicate that the Maharishi Corporate Development Program meets the criteria described in the management literature for an effective leadership and team development program. According to Maharishi's Absolute Theory of Management, these comprehensive changes spontaneously result from unfolding the organizing power of Natural Law in the awareness of the manager through practice of the Transcendental Meditation technique.

On April 15, 2010, members and friends of Ewha gathered at The Ridgewood Country Club in New Jersey to celebrate 40 years of committed, compassionate work by the International Foundation for Ewha Womans University.
At this meaningful event, a slide presentation of the foundation's history was presented to appraise the growth and revalue the original purpose and meaning of the foundation. Also, the Helen Kim Heritage Society and Leadership Society members were recognized and honored with the Alice Appenzeller Award. To brighten up the event, Mezzo-soprano HyoNa Kim, a Ewha graduate who became one of the finalists of the 2010 Metropolitan Opera National Council, gave a wonderful vocal performance of Shin Arirang and Mon Coeur s'ouvre a ta voix.
The gathering's presentations began with Bishop Sharon Z. Rader offering an Invocation & Welcome, and Dr. Soon-Young Yoon presided as Master of Ceremonies throughout. Following the slide presentation on the Foundation's history, the Helen Kim Leadership Society was introduced by Dr. Hai Won Chang and the Helen Kim Heritage Society was introduced by Dr. Ben Bumsun Lee. In closing, Dr. David Vikner, President of United Board for CHEIA, offered a toast to those assembled.
As Foundation President Bishop Sharon Zimmerman Rader described, the dinner was "an almost perfect evening the weather was lovely, the country club setting was beautiful, the reception was delightful, the dinner was delicious, the musical program exquisite and most importantly the fellowship with all those present was truly wonderful."
Thanks to the dedication of the attendees and the supporters who were unable to attend, the donation reached a total of $96,825, along with pledged Helen Kim Leadership gift of about $450,000. Dr. Hwain Lee and her husband Dr. William Lee generously covered the dinner and beverage as well as the printing expenses for the event's luxurious program book. The undesignated income from this event will be the initial gift of Sharon Zimmerman Rader Scholarship Fund with a goal of $100,000 to be utilized for summer school, international study for students from North America (non Korean-American/ Canadian).

Harper brings his "Wacky, Witty Songs" to Belle Isle Library, 5501 N. Villa, 843-9601, for a great way to race into the holiday season on Saturday, December 7, at 2:00 p.m. A long-time performer at library events, Harper's presentation is fun for the entire family.

Monty had entertained library audiences in Kansas, Texas, Arkansas, Alabama, South Dakota, and even New York as well as all around Oklahoma. If you've never experienced one of his performances, come to Belle Isle Library on December 7 for an early Christmas present."

Cathedral Square is dominated by the towering red-brick Rīga Cathedral, established in 1211 and featuring one of the biggest organs in Europe. On the other side of the cathedral, is the worthwhile Museum of Rīga's History and Navigation, featuring Bronze Age and medieval artefacts, such as a mummified criminal's hand, as well as temporary art exhibitions.
From Cathedral Square, Pils iela runs down to Castle Square (Pils laukums) and Rīga Castle (Rīgas pils), built in 1515 and now home to the Latvian president. Follow Mazā Pils iela from Pils laukums to see the Three Brothers (Trīs brāli), three charming medieval houses, one of which, built in the fifteenth century, is thought to be the oldest in Latvia.Read More

Opposite the cathedral, the former building of the Latvia stock exchange at Doma laukums 6 contains the Rīga Bourse Art Museum (Mākslas muzejs Rīgas birža), the nation's collection of old-masters and archeological treasures.

More About Tickets for Fleetwood Mac
The legendary band Fleetwood Mac formed in London in 1967. Originally led by the rock and roll hall of famer Peter Green in the 1960s with Brixton born Danny Kirwan on guitar, 1969 saw them top the European charts with their hit single Albatross. Their self titled blues rock album debut Fleetwood Mac hit number 4 in the UK album charts and paved the way for their rise to fame. In the 1970s John McVie's wife Christine joined the band as Fleetwood Mac continued their hit success with pop centric rock albums "Future Games" and "Bare Trees". Mick Fleetwood on drums, John McVie on bass, Lindsey Buckingham on keyboard and Stevie Nicks setting the vocals which would make her become known as the queen of rock and roll. 1975 saw the blues rockers take their greatest step in mainstream success through their tenth and second self titled album "Fleetwood Mac" (also known as 'The White Album'). Their highly dramatic eleventh album, Rumours received the pinnacle of their critical acclaim due to its mixture of harmonious vocals and high production quality.

With 70-degree weather forecast for this weekend, it will be the first boating weekend of the season for many boat owners. But there are some things you should do, first before heading out on the water.
Many people have not touched their boats since last fall. If that is the case with your boat, there are many things you should check before you go putting that boat in the water and leaving the dock.
"Check all of your fluid levels, make sure you have got a plug. I always carry an extra plug with me just in case," said Smith Marine owner Buddy Smith. "But check our your hose. Just back it into the landing, check it out before you just take off. You never know what can happen, over the wintertime, or from last year."
"Check your fuel gauge. You would be surprised at how many people are out of gas and when we check it out, it's just out of gas," added Smith. "Everybody has got to have a life jacket, one for every member, under 12 needs to have a life jacket on full time."
Whatever you do, run that boat for a little while before you leave the dock, to make sure everything is working right and it won't run hot on you.

A look from the Spring 2012 Alexander McQueen collection, shown on the runway in Paris.
Sarah Burton's third collection for Alexander McQueen debuted in Paris on Tuesday, revealing a fantastical series of ensembles with breathtaking headgear and masks.
Some masks covered the models' faces entirely, while others seemed more like lace veils. The overall effect of the collection was a spooky kind of beautiful, with bondage details like shoes laced up the calf and corseting were paired with lighter materials like tulle and lace.

Think Yourself Slim
Pages in this Story:
- 1. Define Your Motivation
- 2. Choose an Attainable Goal
- 3. Design Your Own Plan
- 4. Visualize the New You
- 5. Get Your Priorities Straight
- 6. Uncover Emotional Obstacles
- 7. Celebrate Every Achievement
- 8. Forgive Yourself
1. Define Your Motivation
Weight loss is a three-part process: Exercising and cutting calories are vital, but your mental outlook can mean the difference between success and failure.
"Self-defeating thoughts are often the most overlooked factors when a dieter gets off track," says Jeffrey Wilbert, PhD, author of Fattitudes: Beat Self-Defeat and Win Your War with Weight (St. Martin's Press, 2000). "You feel disappointed when a quick fix turns out to be anything but, or weak if you succumb to an intense craving for ice cream." Without the resolve to overcome such thoughts, sticking with any major lifestyle change can be difficult, if not impossible.
The key is to adopt the right attitude before you start your plan. "If you're really serious about slimming down, you need to think long-term. That's why it helps to ready yourself emotionally to take on the challenge," says Daniel C. Stettner, PhD, a behavioral-medicine specialist at Northpointe Health Center in Berkley, Michigan. These eight strategies will help strengthen your mind-set.
You probably have lots of reasons for wanting to lose weight. Not all, however, may be good ones. "If your decision develops primarily out of pressure from someone else, your conviction to succeed could diminish over time," says Stettner. "To ensure success, you need to develop the will to improve your life, not someone else's vision of it."
Start by listing all the reasons you can think of for slimming down. Highlight any that include other people. Rewrite the list, omitting the highlighted items. Next, inspect each one for phrases like "have to" or "must." Such words imply obligation, not desire; eventually, they'll also invite the instinct to rebel. (Test the theory: Stand in front of a piece of chocolate cake and tell yourself over and over that you must refuse it. You'll instantly want to dig in.) Translate each "have to" into a "want to." If your reasons lose their relevance, pare down the list again, until you find two or three of the most compelling motivations.

In today's world of gemstone jewelry fashion, it's all about green. And what better way to stay on the cutting edge of style than with a dramatic stone of Nevada-mined chrysoverde? This gem is an exciting swirl of green-toned colors that makes this bold ring sparkle with mystery and beauty. The oval cabochon is set in a foundation of highly polished sterling silver. The silver shoulders gather and twine in a textured metalwork design that wraps around your finger like wearable art. Measures 1" long x 3/4" wide. Mined and made in America.
Like all fine jewelry, Carolyn Pollack Sterling Silver Jewelry should be handled carefully. Store jewelry in a plastic bag, dry and wrapped in tissue paper, when not being worn or displayed. Clean sterling silver with a silver polishing cloth when necessary, but never subject to chlorine, silver dips, chemical solutions or ultrasonic cleaners, as these substances can cause the genuine gemstones to discolor. Never wear jewelry in a swimming pool.

Cozumel Ready for Ironman 70.3
Last Thursday, the island began preparations for the half Ironman 70.3 with the arrival of some 6,000 tourists between athletes and family members who will attend the International sporting event. This is the third annual event, confirmed Juan Emmanuel González Castelán, municipal tourism director. The Manager of the Association of hotels in Cozumel, Isela Valenzuela Jiménez, stated that the occupation of rooms rose up to 75% of the 3,050 rooms available, while at the sponsoring hotel, the occupation will be around 100%. About 2,000 athletes were expected to participate and go the distance of 70.3 miles between swimming, bicycling and running.
González Castelan said that the presence of sports of this type contribute to the popularity of the destination as a point of reference at the international level. It has been the objective to bring tourism to the Island in the months of September and October when activity is low. That is why six years ago, the State Government and the municipal authority attracted the Ford Ironman to improve tourism and economic benefits.
On Sunday the race was held in clear, fine Cozumel weather which brought out big crowds all around the island to watch the competition.
Cozumel Participates in International Beach Cleaning
On Saturday Sept 20th, Cozumel participated in the International Beach Cleaning program. The goal was to provide the removal of any residue covering 25 kilometers of beaches. The annual program is carried out by the Parks and Museums Foundation of Cozumel (FPMC). This annual beach cleaning activity has taken place all over Mexico since 1989 and was pioneered by the FPMC.
Approximately 450 volunteers assisted to clean coastal glass, metal, but mainly plastics that are thrown by beach goers. Strong sea currents are also responsible for depositing trash on the islands beaches every day.
According to Héctor González, this year marks the 25 anniversary of FPMC participation supported by inhabitants of the island making the cleaning of beaches in the framework of the International Conference in which over 123 countries participate and with over 648,000 volunteers around the world.
Since the inauguration of the event, 12,329,332 pounds of waste covering 12,914 miles of beaches has been collected.
Construction of Artificial Reefs to Begin
The absence of natural reef systems for the practice of diving in the Northern part of Cozumel past the El Cozumeleño hotel will lead to the project of placing a total of 64 pieces of an amalgam of stone and steel. The project is expected to have an investment of one million pesos.
The entire burden of diving-related activity is concentrated on the South coast of the island, generating hundreds even thousands of divers per day especially in the high season.
The Northern part of the Island offers activities such as sand, sun, kayaks etc but no such activity such as snorkeling although there are so many fish to admire. The issue of diving is somewhat out of place in this site, until the possibility was discussed by Francisco Camaño, director general of the company responsible for the manufacture of structures, Qualti. He specifies that the immersion of the sculptures is due to a restoration project to release the strain to natural reefs of the South of the island. There could be an option for the practice of diving in the north and avoid any further damage to the natural reef in the south.
Each artificial structure would be one meter high and one meter wide and two meters long, weighing two tons. These monoliths trapezoids would be placed and would need approximately 10 years under water to begin colonization of marine flora and fauna.
Cozumel's "Coati" Species in Danger of Extinction
The International Union for the conservation of nature has placed an endemic species to Cozumel the "Coati Cozumel" (Nasua nelsoni), also known as a Badger, on in the red list of threatened species. Its population is already very low stated an official according to reports by the staff of the National Commission of Natural Protected Areas in Cozumel. The Dwarf Raccoon along with the Coati Cozumeleño is also in danger of extinction. Cozumel Islands Coati is smaller than their relatives on the Mainland and the environmental authorities of Mexico consider it as a separate and endangered species.
More Promotion Needed for Existing Artificial Reefs
It has been several years since the sinking of the boats "Laguna de Mandinga" and "Lake of Patzcuaro" off the waters of Cozumel however, the quantity of tourists who dive this area has been low. It seems to be clear that visitors who come in search of diving prefer natural reef areas. According to information provided by the National Marine Park of Cozumel reefs, this attraction not has been promoted adequately by both the authorities and dive operations.
These boats are located outside the Marine Park area at La Casitas Beach and they were sunk in June 2006 during the administration of Gustavo Ortega Joaquín, after being donated by the Navy to the city of Cozumel Mexico to create artificial reefs following the devastation of Hurricanes Emily and Wilma that hit the island in 2005.
Sources from Marine Park said that since the wrecks have not been promoted properly, the authorities have not been fulfilling their mission of subtracting the workload placed on the natural reefs. It is urgent to implement strategies allowing more publicity of this type of attraction in Cozumel. The two sunken ships already house villages of coral and a large amount of marine life which have taken shelter in this area. Along with diving, snorkeling could be encouraged more so that tourists experience a different aspect of Cozumel.
Cozumel to Provide Maps for Reference Points
The head of the Department of Urban Development, Humberto Suárez Castillo, reported that the Island will put into place 27 maps starting from the center of the city and throughout the entire island. He said that in conjunction with the office of tourism, an analysis was made and officials studied the places with the greatest influx of people. These maps will direct visitors to places of interest. He added that the maps will show access to the piers as well as in the Municipal market among other places visited by tourists. For greater durability, the structures will be made of stainless steel, a weather-resistant material.
Jellyfish in Abundance in the Riviera Maya
Jellyfish, known in the Caribbean as Agua Mala are invertebrates of which little is known. However, an abundance of these Jellyfish in the area has led to an investigation. They have begun to populate the oceans here probably due to the fact that the characteristics of ocean water has changed such as changes in temperature and salinity.
In some Asian countries, Medusa are captured for food as if it were any other fish. In China, for example, it is consumed to regulate blood pressure. There are some studies on medical treatment, but not in Mexico.
A specialist in marine zooplankton and microorganisms, Iván Castellanos Osorio, states that in the Caribbean Sea there are about 88 different species of recorded jellyfish. 15 of these different species can be found off the coasts of Quintana Roo.
The body of a jelly fish is made up of 95% water. That is why they appear transparent. A fact that provides a perfect camouflage.The body consists of three main parts: the umbrella, the oral arms surrounding the mouth and stinging tentacles. They have an internal cavity where digestion takes place, called the gastro vascular cavity, and has a single opening that performs the functions of the mouth and anus.
They are carnivorous and feed mainly on zooplankton, small crustaceans, although part of their diet could consist of some small size fish or other jellyfish. .

The top 9 shoplifted items
Retail theft rising, with more middle-class shoplifters, study finds.
It's no surprise that, in this economy, shoplifting is up. Worldwide, retail theft grew 5.9% last year, accounting for about $208 per family.
A new Global Retail Theft Barometer study, produced by the Centre For Retail Research, found that the greatest increase in retail theft came in North America, where the rate grew 8.1%. (The highest rate of theft was in India.) The study's authors attributed the increase in theft to the recession and also to stores cutting their security budgets. The survey covered July 2008 to June 2009.
Bruce Crumley, writing for Time magazine from Paris, talks about "one of the more surprising findings: A growing number of new shoplifters are outwardly reputable, middle-class people who are walking off with French cheeses, quality meats, cosmetics, mobile phones, clothing and other goodies that they feel they need to maintain a quality of life they can no longer afford."
Crumley quoted Joshua Bamfield, director of the Centre for Retail Research, who said that organized criminals account for the biggest segment of shoplifters, but that retailers are seeing more middle-class thieves, too, some of whom believe they're completely justified in stealing during the recession, even if they're not stealing necessities. Several publications have written about the rise of middle-class shoplifting in Britain, but we didn't see any comparable reporting about middle-class theft in the United States.
- Bing: Shoplifting in America
"Though most thieves rationalize their acts, the current situation has many people feeling the entire system is broken, that politicians are too corrupt or inept to fix it, and that there's nothing wrong with stealing from these big companies and fancy stores that -- the thinking goes -- are themselves making out like thieves," Bamfield told Time. "There's a real perception among many new shoplifters that if you work hard, put money away and play the game, you're asking for someone to come along and rip you off."
And what were people stealing, you might ask?
Seth Figerman of Main Street has done a round-up of the most shoplifted items of 2009:
- Razor blades and shaving products.
- Cosmetics, especially face creams and perfumes.
- Wii and other gaming systems.
- Alcohol.
- Meat.
- Satellite navigation, or GPS, systems.
- Brand-name clothes, purses and accessories.
- Infant formula. Some stores lock up powdered formula, which is not only sold on the black market at a higher price but used to cut drugs. Who knew?
- Watches.
So there's the list of the goods most prized (or at least the most purloined) by thieves. Any surprises? We can't think of any situation, beyond total destitution, that would justify shoplifting, but are we just hopelessly old-fashioned?

"What I often see is that people are scared of fashion–because they're frightened or insecure, so they put it down. On the whole, people who say demeaning things about our world, I think it's because they feel in some way excluded or not part of the "cool group." Just because you like to put on a beautiful Carolina Herrera dress or a pair of J Brand blue jeans instead of something basic from Kmart doesn't mean you're a dumb person. There is something about fashion that can make people very nervous."

Target follows Starbucks with nameless logo
The discount chain joins a list of retailers that have changed their branding in the past year.
By Jeanine Poggi, TheStreet
Target (TGT) is following Starbucks (SBUX) by quietly shedding its name from its iconic bull's-eye logo.
The change comes as the discount retailer looks to make a foray into markets dominated by rival Wal-Mart (WMT). The company has been beefing up its grocery offerings, and in October it introduced its 5% loyalty program.
Target joins a list of retailers that have changed their branding strategies this year, with mixed reaction. Retailers say they're trying to make themselves more identifiable in key international markets.
Last week Starbucks decided to remove the outer green ring that bears the Starbucks Coffee name from its logo, and it enlarged the mermaid in the company's signature green hue. The change goes into effect in March, when the coffee chain celebrates its 40th anniversary.
The original Starbucks logo was brown and was changed to green in 1987. The logo has gone through two other small changes since then. But now "the world has changed and Starbucks has changed," Schultz said.
Gap (GPS) attempted to change its logo in October but returned to its original version after significant backlash from consumers and marketing gurus.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I am so excited to send these out to my family and friends. The perfect invitation for my special day. My husband to be loves them."
"I absoulutely love my invitations! Everything about it is PERFECT for my wedding, our venue is a place called Roaring Camp Railroads, were everyone (including guests) rides a steam train up to the ceremony site, so again.... this was PERFECT to fit the theme. Besides fitting the theme, i loved that it was not so formal. seriously.... why would i spell out the date as "The Twenty Eighth of September Two Thousand and Fourteen" I chose the "ticket trim" to give it a real ticket feel. I also opted to add one of our engagement photos to the backside which came out great!(at no extra cost....why not!) i am very sentimental and it seemed like the right time to show off our "mushy" love. :P"
"We love this invitation! We made some personalizations by changing the border color, the stripes on the back and adding in our wedding website. We also got the the pearl shimmer which looked great. The customization process was super easy and the staff was very helpful."
"I really like this design, very creative and it makes sense. I love the idea of a ticket can really go with more of the non traditional themed weddings. The quality was great and the paper used was nice and heavy."
"the online process of selecting our invitations and RSVP cards was easy. it was a pleasure to work with the designer on the revisions, which were configured and returned to me quickly for approval. the order was processed and delivered quickly. we are very pleased with the final product and highly recommend this company."

OK from the man himself:
"We both have them. There's a specific arrangement with those two characters that would allow us to use them with Avengers, but not discuss or reference their mutant or Magneto-related lineage. They can use them as mutants and as Magneto's relatives, but cannot have anything to do with The Avengers." - Kevin Feige
There you have it.

Finding a comfortable, quality shoe that fits—that's the stuff of legends and fairy godmothers, right? The demands of mountain biking dictate that shoes [32] be stiff and rugged, that they can be worn all day, and that we can walk easily in them when the trail becomes too difficult to ride. Finding one that meets all those requirements is not at easy task.
Pearl Izumi [33], however, believes it has just designed the perfect shoe—no magic wand required. The new X Project line is built around the idea that mountain bike shoes can be stiff and comfortable, and the shoes incorporate some intriguing designs to get the job done. They use a flexible carbon sole that Pearl says is rigid enough to deliver power to the pedals yet flexes when you're walking or running. According to Pearl, the sole has the same power transfer as its top-of-the-line mountain bike shoe.
X Project shoes also use a full-length, but tapered, carbon plate that aids in power transfer without restricting the shoe's flexibility. An EVA foam heel helps absorb trail impacts and co-molded rubber tips on hollow lugs should provide better traction than the hard plastic lugs on many shoes.
This isn't the company's first alternative to the traditional cross-country mountain bike shoe. The company's X-Alp line uses lace enclosures and soft rubber soles. The models resemble trail-running shoes more than mountain bike footwear. But those shoes sacrifice efficiency and performance for comfort. The X Project is something else. The shoes were designed with input from two of Pearl's pro riders, Brian Lopes and Ross Schnell [31], and are targeted to mountain bikers who demand pedaling efficiency, but also crave comfort and versatility on and off the bike.
The X Project 2.0 comes in a lightweight women's version that costs $210.
The shoes come in three models. The 1.0 has a lightweight, breathable mesh upper, weighs 320 grams costs $280. The 2.0 and 3.0 weigh slightly more and use different uppers. They cost $210 and $160, respectively. Both those models are also available in women's versions.
We tried on a pair of X Project 1.0 shoes and took them for a quick spin at Bootleg Canyon near Las Vegas. True to Pearl's claims, they were remarkably easy to walk in, offered good power transfer and fit about as well as any other high-performance shoe we've worn. They weren't quite as comfortable as a slipper, but it was close.
The $160 X Project 3.0.
