She's wanted!!!! She was great and I can't believe that she didn't stay more! Please bring her back, please. She was so powerful, it was sooo cool and she stood up to Damon which is great 'cause finally he's not the one. I hate him for killing her. I hope she'll be back somehow and he will regret this. Plus it was so sad to feel Stefan's pain. She was a wonderful friend for him.
To Rachel - love the lyrics ;)
I Want Lexi Back on the show . It would be cool if everybody thought she died and she just appered out of nowhere . She could hunt down Damon and almost kill him and Elena or Stephan could show up and talk to lexi and bring the human out of her . It would be a very shocking twist to the story!

The Montreal Impact announced on Friday the signing of central defender Adrian Lopez Rodriguez, which will be made official upon reception of his international transfer certificate.
As per Major League Soccer policy, details of the contract were not disclosed.
Nicknamed "Piscu", Lopez Rodriguez, 26, was trained at Deportivo de La Coruma. He played his first two pro seasons with the Spanish club's reserve team. From 2007 to 2010, he played 26 games in La Liga, Spain's first division. He also made 10 appearances in the Copa del Rey and played in six games in the UEFA Cup.
In December 2010, he joined Wigan Athletic of the English Premier League, playing 11 games in two seasons with the club. He also suited up for three League Cup games and five FA Cup matches, helping his team to its first ever FA title in 2012-2013.
"We are very excited to have acquired Adrian, who played in top leagues like England and Spain," said Impact sporting director Nick De Santis. "Lopez Rodriguez is at a very good age and is very motivated to join the club. He
will be an important part of our defensive line now, but also for the future. We have a good group so it was not an easy decision to add players but the personalities of López and Bernardello give us that chance as they will both fit in well."
The team still has 11 foreign players on its roster as Nelson Rivas has been placed on injured reserve.

April Showers Bring Baby Showers: Great Gift Toys
Spring is all about new growth. What better way to welcome Spring than with the arrival of a new baby in the family? The question is, how to welcome the newest addition with the perfect heirloom to start them on their wonderful life?
Give them lots of love and cuddles first, of course, but don't forget to include a couple of extra-special toys to show just how much they mean to you. These cool rattles combine beauty, function, and class all into one perfect little object. But of course, they'll never be as perfect as that beautiful bundle of baby joy.

Good luck with this but consider what the parents are like - I gave a beautiful, hand-crafted rattle years ago (purchased at a serious art fair) and it was hardly acknowledged much less treasured.
love these! too bad I just bought something else for a baby shower next weekend.
I love this, but agree many of these toys will be overlooked and not appreciated. I love giving personalized and custom gifts, recently I gifted a friend a sweet/silly gift combo for her baby shower
sweet: from etsy:

2> https://www.etsy.com/listing/127203205/sale-20-off-now-baby-kitty-cat-hat-great?ref=shop_home_active
silly: I designed some (inside joke) graphics and had them printed on onesies:
1> http://instagram.com/p/YBW6i5GQe5/
2> http://instagram.com/p/YBXaGHmQfm/
While I admire the craftmanship, I can't say these appeal to me at all as a parent. They seem heavy to me. I much preferred infant toys with textures and high contrast designs (like black and white patterns) that were light.
They are gorgeous from an adult standpoint though.
Those are beautiful, and I certainly tried to push toys like that on my kids but truth be told they seemed way more into the bright, plastic, noisy toys.
We use natural toys almost exclusively and they do just fine. One thing I've found though is that most baby rattles are much too heavy for the age range they are directed to and/or too fussy.
Two utterly perfect rattles/teethers are made by Haba and all three kids of my kids have loved them. And they still look like new: Haba Kringelring and the Haba Ramba Zamba
Beautiful wood, but if baby decides to throw one of those. Plus, they kind of look like dog toys.
I purchased this rattle for my daughter http://www.etsy.com/listing/62743997/wooden-toy-baby-rattle-honey-dipper?ref=shop_home_active . She is now 4, and she still uses it to make music. It is beautiful, has a great sound, and will last for years, If you encourage shaking for rhythms, rattles can have a longer playing life, and wood rattles really are great heirlooms. I am saddened more people don't think so.

ʻAinapo Trail
This is the most challenging of all the summit trails. It combines a lengthy 10.2 miles at altitude and a steep rise up the southeastern flank of Mauna Loa.
This is the most challenging of all the summit trails. It combines a lengthy 10.2 miles at altitude and a steep rise up the southeastern flank of Mauna Loa.
For spectacular views of Puʻu ʻOʻo , the source of Kilauea's current spectacle, the 18-mile Napau Crater Trail can't be beat. Unfortunately, volcanic activity has forced the closure of the trail beyond the Napau Crater campground.
For solitude in a mesmerizing lava landscape, take this trail into the Kaʻu Desert, but start on the trailhead accessed via Hwy 11, along what is often called the Footprints Trail. From this approach, the trailhead access is easier, your initial commitment is low and variations allow great route extensions. This hike can be an easy 3.
On March 18, 2008, Halemaʻumaʻu Crater shattered a quarter-century of silence with a huge steam-driven explosion that scattered rocks and Pele's hair (strands of volcanic glass) over 75 acres. A series of explosions followed, widening a 300ft vent in the crater floor, which as of early 2011 continued to spew a muscular column of smoke.
Hike into the backcountry coastal sites via the Keauhou and Hilina Pali trails and you'll experience secluded snorkeling , white-sand beaches ,soaring, 1000ft cliffs and savagely beautiful landscapes. These routes are hot and fairly strenuous, so bring lots of water.
It's off the beaten path, but this heiau, near ʻUpolu Point at Hawaiʻi's northernmost tip, is among the oldest (c AD 480) and most historically significant Hawaiian sites.
Driving to the summit requires a few special considerations: you should have a 4WD, be acclimatized and do it during the daytime – the use of vehicle headlights is discouraged between sunset and sunrise because they interfere with astronomical observation.
Imagine the life of Hawaiian royalty in this palace, a simple island manor constructed in 1838 by Hawaii's second governor, John Adams Kuakini, as his private residence.
The Road to the Sea has a name that calls adventurers, but it's not the human-free destination it once was, despite being at the end of an extremely rugged 4WD-only road.
Just near Pahala, this temple makes a lovely escape. The century-old, colorful temple is wonderfully juxtaposed against the center's lush 25-acre property where peacocks roam free.
You're likely to have already heard about this beach, traditionally known as Papakolea . It's not that green, but it is a secluded, sandy patch of beach requiring a 2.5-mile hike to reach. While it is possible to take a 4WD, this area is considered sacred territory and braided tracks are tearing up the land.
This easy trail starts on the hotel's inland side, at a marked parking lot opposite the resort's little grocery store The first part of the historic trail meanders through a former Hawaiian settlement that dates from the 16th century, passing lava tubes once used as cave shelters and a few other archaeological and geological sites marked by interpretive plaques.
By 1790 Kamehameha the Great had conquered Maui, Lanaʻi and Molokaʻi. But power over his home island of Hawaiʻi proved to be a challenge.
The Mauna Loa Trail begins at the end of Mauna Loa Rd, off Hwy 11 between mile markers 30 and 31. All in, it's an extremely challenging (though non-technical) 19.6-mile hike that ascends 7000ft and takes at least three days, although four is better for acclimatization and exploring the summit area.
Officially the Onizuka Center for International Astronomy, this station was named after Big Island native Ellison Onizuka, one of the astronauts who perished in the 1986 Challenger space shuttle disaster (learn more about him at the Kona International Airport) As you climb 2500ft from Saddle Rd to the visitors station, you break through the cloud cover until it spreads out l.
In 1969, eruptions from Kilauea's East Rift Zone began building a new lava shield, which eventually rose 400ft above its surroundings. It was named Mauna Ulu (Growing Mountain).

EDITOR'S NOTE: This year's Week of Prayer for International Missions in the Southern Baptist Convention earlier this month centered on the theme of "BE His heart, His hands, His voice" from Matthew 16:24-25. Each year's Lottie Moon Christmas Offering for International Missions supplements Cooperative Program giving to support Southern Baptists' 5,000 international missionaries' initiatives in sharing the Gospel. This year's offering goal is $175 million. To find resources about the offering, go to
BIHAR STATE, India (BP) -- On a bright December morning in India, while most Americans were tuned to the Christmas season, Jagdish Kumar* set out on an 11th-hour mission to save his ministry.
The 34-year-old elementary school principal had devoted the past 12 years of his life to sharing the Gospel in Bihar, India's poorest state. But in that time he had started only a single church and witnessed a mere handful of his countrymen follow Jesus.
Worse, he knew many of those who believed were perilously weak in their faith. The results were discouraging, especially compared to the explosive response to the Gospel experienced by Jesus' disciples in the Book of Acts. What was the point if no one seemed to care about Christ? Jagdish deemed his ministry a failure and nearly convinced himself to abandon it.
But he couldn't shake the nagging feeling that, before he quit, God was asking him to try one more time. He had recently been given a new tool from a friend and fellow church planter, Elvin Trueb*, a Southern Baptist missionary from Life Church in Leander, Texas. Trueb had spent the past six months training Jagdish in a church-planting method known as RAD (Rapidly Advancing Disciples).
It employs a strategy to bring the Gospel into unreached villages based on Luke 10, when Jesus sent out disciples two by two, searching for "men of peace." RAD had never been used in Bihar, and Jagdish doubted it would make any difference. But since he was on the verge of quitting, he reasoned he had nothing to lose.
Jagdish chose a village about 20 miles from town and went to work that December morning in 2008, just a few days before Christmas, field testing some of the techniques he gleaned from training. Rajeev Kumar*, a church-planting partner who was in Jagdish's RAD training group, accompanied him. As the day wore on, Jagdish's doubts about RAD and his utter failure as a church planter seemed to be confirmed. Once again, no one was interested in hearing about Jesus.
A divine appointment
As he and Rajeev wandered into the last corner of the village, Jagdish believes God presented a divinely appointed opportunity. Two men were sitting together, talking. When Jagdish introduced himself as a disciple of Jesus Christ, he was surprised to find they genuinely wanted to know more. So Jagdish shared the Gospel -- and one of the men immediately accepted Christ.
"He was saved!" Jagdish says with a grin, remembering the sweetness of the moment. It was a Christmas present tailor-made to encourage a weary church planter.
The man invited Jagdish and Rajeev into his home for dinner. Recognizing this was a "man of peace" that Jesus spoke of in Luke 10, they accepted. Over that meal the men formed a bond that quickly blossomed into the village's first church.
"I said, 'This [RAD] method looks good to me,'" Jagdish recalls. "We will apply this method in 2009. And after that we have applied this method wherever I go. It's very good news."
Using RAD principles, Jagdish started six churches in the first three months of 2009. Rajeev started five in a similar timeframe. More and more Bihari villagers came to Jesus as new churches were planted. There was discipleship, communion, evangelism and dozens of baptisms -- all marks of healthy, growing churches. Jagdish and Rajeev wasted no time in teaching the church planting techniques they'd learned from Trueb to each of the 11 churches they started. Within two years, second- and third-generation churches were popping up across Bihar, all offspring of the original 11.
The effect was exponential. Over the next few years, God continued to multiply Jagdish and Rajeev's work, starting with that single new believer they'd met that December morning. Armed with the RAD training and a passion for making Christ's name known, Jagdish and Rajeev watched the Book of Acts come alive in Bihar. Together, they have been the catalyst that God used to start more than 300 new house churches across the state since 2008, representing more than 3,000 new believers -- the foundation of what's known as a church-planting movement (CPM).
"It was amazing for me, but I have not done this," Jagdish says with humility. "This is not our method. I have only applied the method [in Luke 10]. This is the work of God."
How has this multiplication happened so quickly? Trueb gives credit to RAD's biblically based methodology but also points to two other factors: the power of the Holy Spirit and a simple model of house church -- no paid staff and no building required. He believes this model is essential to church growth in rural Bihar, where spiritual and economic poverty are compounded. According to India's government, Bihar has the lowest gross domestic product per capita in the country.
A Sunday visit
Dusk is falling as Trueb, Jagdish and Rajeev pay a visit to a third-generation church started by a 28-year-old construction worker and church planter named Dileep Das* in Lalitpur* village. Das was led to Christ by another Bihari church planter named Abishek Das,* who was led to Christ and trained by Rajeev. Worship "services" at Jhunathi church would be almost unrecognizable to many American evangelicals.
Every Sunday, 15 to 20 adults and about 15 children pack into Dileep's 10x8 mud-and-brick hut, topped by a bamboo-and-thatch roof. They sit on woven mats on the ground because there are no pews or chairs. There's no electricity either, which means there is no air conditioning when summertime temperatures top 115 degrees F. Light comes in the form of a single oil lamp fashioned from a discarded hydrogen peroxide bottle. There is no running water or bathroom -- members must remember to "go" before church. With no sound system, projection screen or praise team, the only worship instruments are a lone tambourine and the believers' hands and voices. Yet despite the lack of trappings, this tiny group of believers praise Jesus -- and the Gospel flourishes as a result.
Before he met Abishek, Dileep had never heard of Christ. Neither had any of the people in the seven churches Dileep has started in seven different villages surrounding Lalitpur. It's a remarkable feat for a young church not yet two years old. Every Sunday Dileep visits two of the churches to continue teaching their members; he meets with all seven of the churches' pastors once a month to train them in RAD. And he leads by example. Dileep has helped more than 35 people come to know Christ in the two years he's been a believer.
Trueb says it's the kind of growth that's needed to win Bihar for Christ. That's because in India -- the world's second-most populous country -- sharing the Gospel can be a bit of a numbers game.
Roughly the size of the state of Indiana, Bihar is home to 103 million people -- about one-third of the entire population of the United States. Fewer than .05 percent are evangelical Christians; 80 percent of Bihar is Hindu, 15 percent Muslim and 5 percent Buddhist.
In the area Trueb serves, which includes Bihar and eastern Uttar Pradesh, part of West Bengal and the plains of Nepal, approximately 4,000 people die each day. In contrast, the daily birthrate is nearly 12,000, resulting in a net growth rate of 8,000 -- per day. Trueb says that means if Christians there aren't "sharing the Gospel 8,000 times a day, we lose the battle of lostness. At first, that seems like it might be really discouraging, but it's not, because in Acts we know God overcomes those types of things."
Spiritually, Trueb says Bihar has long been an "enemy" stronghold. It is the supposed birthplace of both Buddhism and Jainism and is bisected by the Ganges River, sacred to Hindus. Surprisingly, Trueb says persecution against Christians has practically been nonexistent since 2006, another boon to unimpeded church growth. But he doesn't know how long that will last, and despite impressive progress, Jagdish and Rajeev have a lot more work to do.
Their goal? A house church in each of Bihar's 45,000 villages.
"This is a very good time for harvesting, but laborers are few," Jagdish says. "If our people will work and will pray, very soon every village and every district will have a church."
"This is the right time and we have the right tools," Rajeev adds. "And we are harvesting fast."

Myocarditis - pediatric
Pediatric myocarditis is inflammation and weakness of the heart muscle in an infant or young child.
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
Myocarditis is an uncommon disorder. In children it is usually caused by viral infections that reach the heart, such as the influenza (flu) virus, Coxsackie virus, and adenovirus. However, it may also occur during or after other viral or bacterial infections such as polio, rubella, Lyme disease, and others.
When you have an infection, your body's immune system produces special cells that release certain chemicals to fight off disease. If the infection affects your heart, the disease-fighting cells enter the heart. However, the chemicals they produce can damage the heart muscle, causing it to become thick and swollen. This leads to symptoms of heart failure. In addition, the virus or bacteria may damage the heart muscle.
Other causes of pediatric myocarditis include:
- Allergic reactions to certain medications
- Exposure to certain chemicals in the environment
- Infections due to fungus or parasites
- Radiation
- Some diseases (autoimmune disorders) that cause inflammation throughout the body
- Some drugs
Pediatric myocarditis tends to be more severe in newborns and young infants than in children over age 2.
Symptoms may be mild at first and difficult to detect.
In newborns and infants, symptoms may sometimes appear suddenly and may include:
- Anxiousness
- Failure to thrive or poor weight gain
- Feeding difficulties
- Fever and other symptoms of infection
- Heart failure
- Listlessness
- Low urine output (a sign of decreasing kidney function)
- Pale hands and feet (a sign of poor circulation)
- Rapid breathing
- Rapid heart rate
Symptoms in children over age 2 may also include:
- Belly area pain and nausea
- Chest pain
- Cough
- Fatigue
- Swelling (edema) in the legs, feet, and face
Signs and tests
Pediatric myocarditis can be difficult to diagnose because the signs and symptoms often mimic those associated with other heart and lung diseases.
The doctor may hear a rapid heartbeat or abnormal heart sounds while listening to the child's chest with a stethoscope. A physical examination may detect fluid in the lungs and swelling in the legs in older children.
There may be signs of infection, including fever, rashes, red throat, itchy eyes, and swollen joints.
A chest x-ray can show enlargement (swelling) of the heart. An electrocardiogram and echocardiogram should also be done.
Further tests may include:
- Blood cultures to check for infection
- Blood tests to look for antibodies against the heart muscle and the body itself
- Blood tests to check liver and kidney function
- Complete blood count
- Heart biopsy (the most accurate way to confirm the diagnosis)
There is no cure for myocarditis, although the heart muscle inflammation usually goes away on its own in time.
The goal of treatment is to support heart function and treat the underlying cause of the myocarditis. Most children with this condition are admitted to a hospital. Activity can strain the heart and therefore is often limited.
Treatment may include:
- Antibiotics to fight infection
- Anti-inflammatory medicines called steroids to control inflammation
- Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG), a medicine made of substances that the body produces to fight infection, to control the inflammatory process
- Medicines called diuretics to remove excess water from the body
- Medicines to treat heart failure and abnormal heart rhythms
Expectations (prognosis)
How well the child does depends on the cause and his or her overall health. With appropriate treatment, most children recover completely. However, some may have permanent heart disease. Newborns have the highest risk for serious disease and complications (including death) due to myocarditis. In rare cases, an urgent heart transplant is necessary.
- Enlargement of the heart that leads to reduced heart function (dilated cardiomyopathy)
- Heart failure
- Heart rhythm problems
Calling your health care provider
Make an appointment with your child's pediatrician if signs or symptoms of this condition occur.
There is no known prevention. However, prompt and adequate treatment of viral, bacterial, or parasitic diseases may help reduce your child's risk.

Iowa State erased an 18 point second half deficit to defeat UNI 91-82 in an overtime thriller Saturday night.
After UNI stormed out and grabbed a 48-31 lead, the Cyclones used a huge 23-2 run to get back in to the game. However, things once again looked in doubt when Panther center Seth Tuttle banked in a heavily contested 3-pointer at the buzzer to send the game to overtime.
Iowa State point guard Deandre Kane led the effort in the overtime that kept the Cyclones undefeated on the season.
Melvin Ejim and Georges Niang led Iowa State with 22 apiece, 20 of Ejim's came in the second half.
Sophomore Nate Buss led UNI with a 23 point effort.

University of Oklahoma senior cornerback Aaron Colvin and the Sooners are off for the next few days, but will arrive in New Orleans for the Sugar Bowl on Friday December the 27th.
The Owasso native will be playing his final game for the Sooners and he should be close to full speed when Oklahoma takes on Alabama.
OU Head Coach Bob Stoops thinks Aaron's return for his senior year has helped his chances at the next level. "Aaron has been a major factor in our defensive improvement this year." said Stoops, "His return this year I believe has really helped him. His draft prospects, I know everyone who has been coming through here has been paying special attention to him. So hopefully that happens for him. I believe it will."The #11 Sooners will face the #3 Crimson Tide in the Sugar Bowl Thursday, January the 2nd in New Orleans.

Being the fastest – so far, at least – production car on the planet affords you certain perks and privileges, one of which is you get to be in the news with just about anything you do.
The Bugatti Veyron Super Sport holds the distinction of not only being the fastest production car in the world, but for also being the center of attention just by its mere presence. Recently, the 267 mph-supercar paid a visit to the legendary Paul Richard race track in France for a little lap around the circuit.
Not much is seen in this video, except for the dashboard of the Bugatti as it makes its flying lap, but if you're a fan of hearing the car's powerful engine at its full, unbridled, and roaring best, this three-minute of the Veyron Super Sport running a lap at Paul Richard is just what the doctor ordered. All you need to do is turn up the volume, hit play, and enjoy the sound of a record-breaking supercar at work.

Child Welfare Reform and Advocacy
Children's Rights fights to give abused and neglected children a better chance of growing up in safe, loving, permanent homes.
When we take on failing child welfare systems, we aim to hold public officials accountable to their constitutional and legal obligations to act quickly in working to either safely reunify children with their birth families or to find them adoptive parents if reunification fails.
We launch comprehensive reform campaigns designed to secure federal court orders mandating that child welfare systems:
- Develop plans quickly for moving children in foster care into permanent homes through either safe reunification with their birth families or adoption, spelling out goals, tasks, and timeframes in detail.
- Work intensively to recruit adoptive families — including families willing and able to take in children with special needs and others regarded as difficult to place.
- Provide adequate post-adoption services so children thrive with their new families, parents receive the support they need to enable them to adopt, and the adoptions remain stable.
And we complement our legal efforts with research and policy advocacy at the state and national level to improve the public policy that guides child welfare systems — and to produce better results for the abused and neglected children in their care.

Critical Essay by J. M. Ferguson, Jr.
SOURCE: "Hawthorne's 'Young Goodman Brown'," in The Explicator, Vol. XXVIII, No. 4, December, 1969, item 32.
In this essay, Ferguson points out the importance of color symbolism as it pertains to Faith's pink ribbons in "Young Goodman Brown."
Much concern has been expressed about the significance of Faith's pink ribbons in Hawthorne's "Young Goodman Brown," and this commentary has perhaps been initiated in part by F. O. Matthiessen's observation that the author's "literal insistence" on them, as they first appear to Goodman Brown in the forest, damages the effect of what is otherwise portrayed as "the realm of hallucination" (American Renaissance, New York, 1941). More recently, Richard Harter Fogle has attempted to explain this apparent inconsistency by suggesting that the...

Cindy Green and Jim Green, a childless couple, become frustrated with their inability to conceive, so one night they dream up their ideal offspring and write the child's characteristics and life events on pieces of paper, including "scoring the winning goal." The couple places the notes in a box and buries them in their backyard. After a stormy night in Stanleyville, a 10-year-old arrives at their doorstep, claiming the Greens as his own. Soon they realize that the child, named Timothy, is far more special than they originally thought.

Featured Articles
2012 Guide Analysis: "A strange looking family fantasy drama from Disney that novelist & musician Ahmet Zappa originated as an idea, this first came to many's attention with the release of a very early teaser trailer back in August - a full year out from release.
The story follows a childless and infertile couple who bury all their wishes and hopes for a baby in a box in their backyard. The next day they awaken to find a ten-year-old child on their doorstep, one who isn't all he appears to be and claims to be theirs.
Considering the pain and anguish some couples have to go through to have a child, a film with a trivial and "'Benjamin Button' but younger-skewing" approach like this almost comes off as vaguely insulting. Yet there's obviously something here, something strong enough to attract a good cast and for Disney to schedule this far ahead and push forward this prominently. Could be pleasant enough if you can buy the central premise."

(h/t to Angry Black Lady)
See this girl? Her name is Lauren Pierce.
She's president of the UT College Republicans in Austin, Texas. She wants to remind y'all that you shouldn't shoot the president because if you do, then he won't be the WORST president EVER! Lulz!
Yeah, seriously.
From ABC News:
Hours after Pennsylvania State Police arrested a 21-year-old Idaho man for allegedly firing a semi-automatic rifle at the White House, the top student official for the College Republicans at the University of Texas tweeted that the idea of assassinating President Obama was "tempting."
At 2:29 p.m. ET, UT's Lauren E. Pierce wrote: "Y'all as tempting as it may be, don't shoot Obama. We need him to go down in history as the WORST president we've EVER had! #2012.
Pierce, the president of the College Republicans at UT Austin, told ABC News the comment was a "joke" and that the "whole [shooting incident] was stupid." 'Giggling, she said that an attempted assassination would "only make the situation worse."'
"Insofar as she's a representative [of the College Republicans], maybe it shouldn't be said, but she's made a positive statement in a way," said Cassie Wright, the group's vice president.
"I don't really see anything wrong with it," Wright added. "It's just a personal comment, not representative of any group. Just freedom of speech, you know?"
Um, no.
So I'm going to make y'all a deal, College Republicans. And by College Republicans, I mean all of you across the country. How about you stop posting the picture of the supposed OWS protester pooping on the cop car, and painting Occupy Wall Street with that broad brush, and I won't claim the only thing stopping College Republicans from assassinating the president is that he needs to go down in history as the WORST president EVER, mmkay?
Oh, and acting like you need to remind people to not shoot the president isn't a "positive statement." It's a wink and a nod to those tempted. "Like, OMG, I so get it! I totes get why you wanna do it! I mean you shouldn't, y'know, but COME ON?! Who HASN'T thought about it, amirite?!"</sarcasm>
Making statements like this is sure to make you a lot of friends in the city of Austin, I tell ya what.
Hope she gets a visit from the Secret Service.

David Perry gives an assured account of Pleyel's D major Violin Concerto, combining its original first two movements with a later substitute finale (the original finale is available as a free downloadable bonus track). He demonstrates fleet-fingered dexterity, substantial accuracy, well-proportioned shaping and crystal-clear sonority, but his somewhat measured tempos result in the opening Allegro, cadenza included, seeming prolix and lacking in brilliance. His warm, genial lyricism provides ample compensation, especially in the central Adagio, and his performance overall has a winning equanimity of gesture that brings a smile to the closing rondo. The recording is natural, immediate and well balanced.
Perry is joined by violist Victoria Chiang in a somewhat literal, laid-back account of Pleyel's two-movement Symphonie concertante in B flat major. They are given a comparatively small solo image and are balanced almost within the orchestra. A touch more bite and more spacious recorded sound would have lent greater immediacy and impact, but their easy and fluent interaction in solo figuration is admirable. Perry and fellow violinist Isabella Lippi are more extrovert in the A major work, meeting the technical challenges of its outer movements, including Suzanne Beia's stylish first-movement cadenza, and contributing some shapely, poetic lyricism in the Adagio.

text: BOISE, Idaho (AP) - House lawmakers have pulled the plug on legislation designed to restrict teens using tanning beds. The 25-43 vote in the House Monday killed the bill aimed at preventing dangerous or deadly skin cancer. The measure was a renewed effort to prohibit the use of ultraviolet tanning devices for minors under age 16. A similar bill introduced last year included fines up to $1,000, but this year's bill reduced that citation to $100 for first offenses. Lewiston Democrat Rep. John Rusche said youth who tan regularly face heightened risks of cancer. He argued the restrictions parallel similar teen limitations on driving, smoking and drinking. But Nampa Republican Rep. John Vander Woude said the bill hurts small business and argued parents - not government - should have control over their children's decisions.(Copyright 2013 The Associated Press.

whats up with a 3.55 DEX (with peek and poke and used to install retail PKGs)?? Can a dex 3.55 run PS3 games higher than 3.60 (retail fw)?Sponsored Links
If not then whats the point in enable peek & poke and also set it to read retail pkg... When you can just flash it/convert it to retail Rebug 3.55.2 and run the same stuff....
Well well why not do peek and poke on the Dex 4.20 and include retail pkg install or is that harder because of the firmware version? Just wondering, I'm not an expert...
you can remove the PS3 DEX to CEX Switcher PUP's (327.35MB) they are useless. it doesn't change the console eid. so its still dex but without dex features. if you goto update by internet you will see that the option is still greyed out and also system recovery shows your consoles minimum firmware version. and you cant install any other retail firmwares.Sponsored Links
Well, we keep everything for archival purposes even if most of the stuff is of little to no use, but THANKS for the feedback update technodon as I'm sure it will save others time and +Rep!

Also below is a brief guide on how to increase the number of games allowed in PS3Gen for DEX consoles by xerius (via eurasia.nu/modules.php?op=modload&name=Forums&file=viewtopic& topic=6672&forum=87) by default this is limited to 4 slots but with this hexedit you can have up to 255 games maximum.
Note: Another way according to carldenning is to use PS3Gen v3.30 (above) and open the file called genelib.dll in a hex editor, search for the offset 5D979 and change the 04 to 50.. it will make 80 images when u format the hdd with PS3Gen.
PS3Gen after formatting creates only 4 games.
You can create up to 255 games (FF in hex)
1. You will need a hex editor. I use Winhex. Run winhex. Open Tools-> Open Disc. Select the hard disk is formatted in PS3Gen.
2. Go to Offset 2000B
3. You will see this:
4. Change the value of the byte at offset 2000B for the desired number of games and add bytes 05D3A0 and 0B as much as you need. An example. I did 5 games. Do not forget after change Winhex click Save.
5. Here's what happened:

Here is another guide from gledian as well:
How to Bypass the 4 slots limit of PS3Gen & Edit the Size of Slot and HDD's Partition
You will need:
- HDD formatted with the "BD Emulator Format HDD" from the console (NOT PS3Gen);
- A HEX editor that supports disk editing (for this guide a use WinHEX)
How to edit the size of HDD
If you do not want to dedicate an entire HDD to PS3 backup, with this guide you can edit the size of the ps3gen partition and have one that you will use with Ps3Gen and one that you can format in FAT32/NTFS or in another format of your choice to be used normally.
1. Connect the HDD to your PC;
2. Start a HEX edit of your choice;
3. If you use WinHEX, from the menu bar select "Tools -> Open Disk Drives";
4. Now open "Disk Management" ("Start -> Right click on Computer -> Manage", go to "Disk Management" in the left menu) and browse to your HDD.
5. Now you have to select your HDD from the window of the "physical disk" , NOT logical units;
NOTE: If you fail to select the HDD and change the wrong values could compromise your system, it would be your responsibility.
6. Go to 'Offset "1CA", you can use the command ALT + G (with WinHEX);
1 sector = 512 bytes
Size my HDD = 500107862016 bytes
500107862016 : 512 = 976773168 sectors
Convert 976773168 into HEX = 3A386030
Reversed bytes 3A|38|60|30 -> 30|60|38|3A Maximum size of partition 2TB
7. Now using the above procedure we can choose the size that we want to give our PS3 partition.
My HDD is 500GB and I want to dedicate the 300GB PS3, so I will do so:
a. Size that I want to give to the partition = 300GB -> 322122547200 bytes
b. Transform the bytes into sectors 322122547200 : 512 = 629145600 sectors
c. Convert sectors into HEX 629145600 -> 25800000
d. Reversed bytes 25|80|00|00 -> 00|00|80|25
e. Finally, I replace it and save the changes.
Bypass the 4 slot limit of Ps3gen, and edit the size of slots and HDD's partition
NOTE: If you want to partition the slots so that they take up less space on the hard disk, you will have a newly formatted HDD from PS3 and if you want to partition it must do so before following this guide, why do it later may not allow proper backups.
1. Follow the guide above until step 5.
2. Go to 'Offset "2000B", you can use the command ALT + G (with WinHEX);
3. To increase the number of slots you have to replace the number 04 with the number of slots that we want (I did not understand how it works because if I enter 20 I create 31 slot and not 20, not too bad ) and for each slot we have to add one 0B and its size in HEX.
4. Now I will explain how to get the HEX to partition the slot of the size we want. Example:
We want the first slot occupies 10gb:
a. Convert gigabytes into bytes 10gb -> 10737418240 bytes
b. We divide the bytes to 512 (bytes per sector) 10737418240 : 512 -> 20971520 sectors
c. Convert the value obtained in HEX 20971520 -> 1400000 HEX
d. 1400000 is divided in this way 01|40|00|00, we start from the right and divide every 2 digits, zeros are added at the end in order to always have 4 pairs.
e. It replaces and save the changes.
Here you have a screenshot of my HDD Slots partitioned. Slots are in order, the first at the top coincides with the 0 and so on.
The other numbers occurring on the screenshot are automatically generated from PS3Gen.
NOTE: Once you have partitioned the slot, if you edit the dimensions again, the games in the successive Slots not start.
The guide is a bit long, but I hope I explained well enough for even the least practical of these changes. For any explanation do not hesitate to ask questions.
Here is yet another guide from PatrickBatman:
BDEMU Change Size of Partitions to Match Game Rather Than 46GB (default) DEX
By default when you format your external drive to BDEMU on ps3 console it'll make 46GB sized partitions same goes with ps3gen BDEMU format utility except ps3gen will you give you 4 slots for games, problem is you can only have 4 and if your external isn't at least 184GB+ you can't use all partitions.
For instance since I am using a 32GB sandisk thumb drive i would only get one partition each time, meaning only one game. Because each partition has to take up 46GB (Bluray dual layer basically) it doesnt take your drive size like mine 32GB and divide by 4 slots meaning I should have four 10.6GB slots but it doesnt work that way.
So i found another way that works requires a hex editor. I'll use HxD for this tutorial or whatever you want to call it. I also used aldostools start_ps3gen.exe to have any # of slots I wanted up to 255 instead of just 1 or 4. (you can also edit the ps3gen dll to do this)
1. Put start_ps3gen.exe in same folder as ps3gen (check both to run as admin)
2. Open start_ps3gen.exe pick number of slots you want.
3. ps3gen should start after you do this, pick command then BD Emulator HDD Utility... (May have to format BDEMU drive on ps3 first)
4. pick your drive then pick Format HDD for BD emulator, say yes to all warnings.
5. this should make the # of slots you picked in step 2 into images on disc.
6. Now build a game in ps3 gen (find out how to do this yourself)
7. at the end of building game where you the select output image format pops pick For BD Emulator (direct) and choose Image0
8. Game will write to ext HD (takes about an hour for a 10gb game)
(Since you'll be fooling with your hard drive in this section, make sure you fully understand this guide to do this, it works ive tested, i take no responsibility for possible damage)
9. Open Hxd (or other hex editor) go to Extras, open disk and pick your external disk with ps3 game and uncheck read only
10. Press ctl+g or pick search, Go to..., type in offset 20000
11. If you're in the right place to the right of the hex you should be able to read BD-EMU-1
12. At offset 20034 starts your first slot partition size 46GB hex 05D3A0
13. to the right of hex 05D3A0 there are some zeros then more hex this is the ACTUAL size of the game you just put on there
14. Open up calculator in windows, pick view, programmer take the ACTUAL SIZE OF GAME in hex and multiply by 4
example: my Resident evil 6 was 513F40 (10.1GB) multiply by 4 is 144FD00
15. Take this new hex value (ACTUAL GAME SIZE multiplied by 4 in hex value ex: 144FD00 for my RE6) and replace the 46GB hex number with it so 05D3A0 (46GB partition size) becomes ACTUAL GAME SIZE multiplied by 4 hex value (Example: 144FD00 hex value)
16. As you may notice every other line there is pattern, each time you see 05D3A0 thats the next partition. Since I picked 3 slots I see this 05D3A0 3 times.
17.Pick file, save in HxD close program.
18. Add another game to Image1 (the next partition) via ps3gen and start from step 9, do this for each new game added
Finally, below is a log from a PS3 DEX unit running hello (via nanoflow-cell.googlecode.com/hg-history/ps3-devkit-algorithm2/data/92-1275969833/run_5.log?r=ps3-devkit-algorithm2):

They don't have to change the eid. They are for DEX consoles, so the 'CEX Switcher FW' will be CEX 3.55 disguised as DEX, and the 'DEX Switcher FW' will be a DEX Firmware disguised as CEX. So they should be installable without causing a brick.
There is no reason why it shouldn't let you install other CEX CFWs, once you install the switcher CFW because the FW will be expecting a CEX FW. I might be wrong, there may be more to it, but this is most likely what is happening here.
you are wrong, i tested all this. all it does is swap dev_flash for retail files and probably retail coreOS but it doesn't give you retail firmware. you might as well just stay on dex and have dex features, it just like rebug on cex which gives you dex features but none of the good stuff works cause the eid is still cex.
A swapped dev_flash? that's just lame, that's no switcher FW. Say technodon, do you think installing a CEX firmware would brick a DEX unit. If you disguised it as a DEX FW using a similar method MFWBuilder uses to disguise CEX as SEX for Kiosk to Retail conersions, it might work.
If you really want switching between CEX&DEX then you need 2 linux shell scripts for flashing, called from petitboot and both "dumps": flashCEX.bin & flashDEX.bin. You will get the illusion of triple-boot with that:
1) linux (normal Linux boot)
2) DEX (script 2 flash "flashDEX.bin")
3) CEX (script 2 flash "flashCEX.bin")
Of course you need 2 reinstall a FW for 3) & 2)
Why do we need the downgrader PUP? I thought in dex you are always able to downgrade??
Also, could someone explain the target manager to me?
- Load and run executable files
- TTY view
- Fileserving provides the target with access to the host file system
- Manages connections to multiple development hardware on your network allowing simultaneous debug sessions or sharing of development hardware
- Color-coded display of printf streams
- Target Manager SDK provides programmatic access to the functionality of Target Manager
hi, i have a ps3 60 gig which plays all playstation games. is it worth converting to dex or stay on 3.55 cfw?
I have few questions, please anyone answer it, I have PS3 with 3.55 Kmeaw CFW, i never updated it, so if i update it to 4.20 ofw and then convert it to DEX, will i still be able to play the 3.6+ games ? and is my ps3 really CEX ? i don't have much idea about it.. and will i be able to downgrade to 3.55 again ?
My friend has updated his ps3 from 4.0 ofw to 4.20 ofw, can this ps3 also be converted to DEX ?
thanks, please it will be great if i get to know about these things. thank you

Friday afternoon (8.17.12) – Weather Update
We're still tracking a thick layer of cloud cover overhead with isolated showers in our eastern counties – heads up in Rowan and Bath counties. The cloud cover could act to further suppress our daytime high temperatures. Though our initial forecast is calling for upper 70s this afternoon, with the clouds, mid 70s for highs may be the name of the game through midday.
Your forecast for this weekend still looks great!
Make it a great weekend!
You've made it to your weekend…well almost! We're tracking a few isolated showers this morning with temps by lunchtime in the low to mid 70s. Clouds will stick around overhead before thinning into the evening hours tonight. Along with the clouds, a few of us in the Blue Grass may see an isolated shower or storm through the afternoon. Our best chance for a shower or storm will be in our southeastern counties. That happens to be where our cold front is…which will be the culprit for cooling our temps today and into the weekend. Heading out on the town tonight, I'm calling for dissipating clouds as the clouds and moisture continues its track towards the southeast.
Saturday will be filled with sunshine! That sun will help warm temps into the mid to upper 70s tomorrow and Sunday!
Summer isn't quite over just yet…check out your 7-day forecast to see to see the warmer week ahead.

We're very excited to be able to present one of the greatest albums of the last 20 years live in it's entirety next July at London's stunning Alexandra Palace.On the 1st July 2011 The Flaming Lips will perform their seminal classic The Soft Bulletin as part of ATP Concerts Don't Look Back season. On the album's release in 1999 it was hailed by critics as 'The Pet Sounds of the 90s', receiving adulation from fans and writers alike, topping many year end charts and spawning two classic singles ('Waiting For A Superman', 'Race For The Prize') and going on to influence countless bands. In 2003 Pitchfork placed the album as the third best album of the 1990s alongside Radiohead's OK Computer and My Bloody Valentine's Loveless.For this special show they will be joined by two other stunning acts; Dinosaur Jr will perform their 1988 classic Bug. Bug was the bands third album with their original line-up and included the instant alt-rock classic 'Freak Scene'. Finally San Francisco's Deerhoof, one of the most acclaimed live acts around (fans include Radiohead, Beck and Blur all of whom they have been personally invited to support), will perform their 2004 album and fan favourite Milk Man.

Hayleigh Hillskotter consistently puts forth her best effort in turning in all her work in a timely manner. She is also responsible and has a wonderful sense of humor.
I admire her sense of initiative. She often comes in before school starts to help out and stays up to an hour after school changing bulletin boards or passing out papers. She is not a school hero but a hero in my class.

Ok...just look at that picture and try to tell me you don't want some of this...like, NOW! Yeah...that's what I thought :) Trust me, this was just as good as it looks. Jesse and Heath absolutely devoured it. That cream cheese/whipped cream topping was SOOOO good, and definitely necessary. This was the first time I ever made pancakes from scratch (with actual flour and eggs, not just Bisquick), and it was surprisingly easy! Yes, it's a little more time consuming than just throwing together some pre-made pancake mix, but it's definitely worth it. I still love Bisquick for when I don't feel like a mess, and just want to eat, but this is a great recipe for a Saturday morning breakfast when you want to get a little more creative. I think next time I'll try it with bananas!
'Blueberry Cheesecake Flapjacks'
Source: Taste of Home
1 package (3 ounces) cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup whipped topping
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1-1/4 cups buttermilk
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
3/4 cup maple syrup, warmed
Additional blueberries, optional
For topping, in a small bowl, beat cream cheese and whipped topping until smooth. Chill until serving.
In a large bowl, combine the flour, cracker crumbs, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Combine the eggs, buttermilk and butter; add to dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in blueberries.
Pour batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto a greased hot griddle; turn when bubbles form on top. Cook until the second side is golden brown. Spread topping over pancakes. Top with warm syrup; sprinkle with additional blueberries if desired.

What are other ways we can take an astonishing solution (livestock) to reverse climate change (once caused by that very solution)?
Allan Savory took the unthinkable idea of using the "problem" to solve the problem, using livestock to reverse the desertification once caused by the livestock itself. Is it possible to use fossil fuels to reverse greenhouse gasses? How about fertilizers to reduce water nitrification? Do you think these solutions are possible?

Mar 5 2013: Thank you for posting the link to that fascinating and important video.
As an American, I can speak as one. In America, the most watched (by far) news channel is FOX. Every time the grave threat of global warming is mentioned, there is a refusal to discuss how this will impact us no matter who or what is causing it. Viewers are never told that this will impact the ability of Americans to survive - just as it has impacted other parts of the world. Most people don't know that much of the USA is really a desert, and that the desert is growing as quickly as the glaciers in Glacier National Park are melting.
I am stunned that the national conversation is limited to what is to blame (Nature or man) and it never turns to what it means to our survival, regardless of who or what is causing it. There is a large block of Americans who believe that they and their families will be raptured before hunger and thirst enters their own homes. Because of this, they refuse to even acknowledge the threat. Those who are not raptured deserve what they will get (their thinking), so there is no need to limit any damage or even conserve (which is odd for those who call themselves conservatives).
My question is one of how we can get this message heard without having billions of dollars to buy air-time on those networks that will allow such a video to be aired.
Mar 5 2013: I think the first step is moving away from what you pointed out- the argument about what/who is to blame, and instead move towards acceptance. For even those who do not believe we are the cause of it, or even that the problem is something so dangerous it deserves the name of Global Warming, cannot deny that our earth is in need of some help. (Or maybe that's just me being hopeful?) If we got the help of big companies making big moves (not necessarily big sacrifices), taking social responsibility, maybe more people would follow. There are facets to a solution out there, like this live stock strategy, that are making real change, that if we did even minimal reporting on it on stations like FOX, do you think more people would begin to believe that there is hope for meaningful change and sustainability?
Mar 5 2013: No, because as soon as you inflame Democrats with lies, they will react in equally childish ways. That's how political leaders convince the people to vote for the continuation of the corruption. Both sides have sheeple who follow their fears. The American educational system exists in order to teach people how to NOT-think, and our fiscal system rewards sheeple for being sheeple.
We need to think outside of the box.

Mar 6 2013: FOX News (shown in the attached link as FNC (Fox News Corp) is consistently the most highly watched news-type program in America in every time slot. You certainly can't expect popular CBS Sit-coms to have in-depth discussions about these types of things.
(Here is a rundown for 3/4 - but all rundowns for the past couple of years show the same thing. Numbers are showing thousands of viewers.)
Net Morning programs (6-9 AM)
FNC FOX & Friends 1,152
CNN Early Start/Starting Point 193
MSNBC Morning Joe 397
CNBC Squawk Box 174
HLN Morning Express w/ Meade 282
FOX (FNC) certainly is the main-stream news media that they complain so bitterly about.
