Now I'll have to switch to my second choice, which is Sean escaping from both the cameras and his conventional Hollywood- and church-mediated view of romance, into the wild humid Asian night, spending the next year in unhinged polyamorous ecstasy with Catherine, Lindsay, aShLǝǝ, and a local Thai man named Thanapong, before moving onward, alone, newly confident that love is a beautiful sham and pleasure must be its own reward. Anyway. How are you today?

Signature II tires featuring H- or V-speed ratings are Dunlop's Grand Touring All-Season tire developed to meet the needs of the drivers of coupes, sedans, vans and crossover vehicles. Signature II tires are designed to combine touring ride comfort with an athletic attitude by providing the responsive handling and confident cornering that enhances the connection between the driver and the road, along with year-round, all-season traction, even in light snow.
Signature II tires feature an all-season tread compound molded into a symmetric design with circumferential channels and lateral Evaqua Grooves to efficiently pump water out from under the footprint and blend hydroplaning resistance with dry road handling and noise comfort. Multi-directional siping helps increase traction in wet and wintry conditions.
The tires internal structure includes twin steel belts reinforced by spirally wrapped nylon that helps maintain the tires shape at highway speeds to enhance handling while minimizing vibration. A Dimensionally Stable Polyester body (a special manufacturing process to pre-cure and pre-stretch the ply cords) delivers uniformity and a smooth ride.

For preferences on this list: http://kb.mozillazine.org/index.php?title=Category:Preferences you can use 2 files to lock preferences in place for both new and existing users.
The first file you need is local-settings.js. Unzip the firefox packaged exe, and create this file under defaults\pref. Then paste this:
pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0);
pref("general.config.filename", "firefox.cfg");
This tells firefox to look for the locked config file firefox.cfg at the root level of the firefox program files folder. The obscure value 0 sets it to read the cfg as plain text, you can also byte shift the cfg by 13 (for encryption) if you want to but its not necessary.
The second file you need is firefox.cfg. Place this somewhere that your deployment solution can copy to clients. In this file you customize settings you wish to have locked. More info here on formatting: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences
Next you can deploy the setup.exe as usual, with -ms and /INI=filename if you want as suggested above. After that, run a script to copy firefox.cfg to the root level of the firefox program files folder. Those settings will then be locked for all users.
<path to setup executable> -ms
Command Line Arguments From MozillaWiki
IMPORTANT: DO NOT MIX command line options from different lines below (e.g. don't mix /S with /INI, etc.)
Silent install (always installs into the default location. Use the "Configuration ini file" option below to set the install location and other install options):
<path to setup executable> -ms
Silent uninstall:
All version of Firefox
<path to setup executable> /S
Firefox 4.0 and later
<path to setup executable> -ms
Configuration ini file:
<path to setup executable> [/INI=<full path to configuration ini file>]
When specifying a configuration ini file the installer will always run silently. When specifying a Configuration ini file other command line switches should not be specified and may have unexpected results
Configuration ini file syntax and available settings:
; Remove the semicolon (;) to un-comment a line.
; The name of the directory where the application will be installed in the
; system's program files directory. The security
; context the installer is running in must have write access to the
; installation directory. Also, the directory must not exist or if it exists
; it must be a directory and not a file. If any of these conditions are not met
; the installer will abort the installation with an error level of 2. If this
; value is specified then InstallDirectoryPath will be ignored.
; InstallDirectoryName=Mozilla Firefox
; The full path to the directory to install the application. The security
; context the installer is running in must have write access to the
; installation directory. Also, the directory must not exist or if it exists
; it must be a directory and not a file. If any of these conditions are not met
; the installer will abort the installation with an error level of 2.
; InstallDirectoryPath=c:\firefox
; By default all of the following shortcuts are created. To prevent the
; creation of a shortcut specify false for the shortcut you don't want created.
; Create a shortcut for the application in the current user's QuickLaunch
; directory.
; QuickLaunchShortcut=false
; Create a shortcut for the application on the desktop. This will create the
; shortcut in the All Users Desktop directory and if that fails this will
; attempt to create the shortcuts in the current user's Start Menu directory.
; DesktopShortcut=false
; Create shortcuts for the application in the Start Menu. This will create the
; shortcuts in the All Users Start Menu directory and if that fails this will
; attempt to create the shortcuts in the current user's Start Menu directory.
; StartMenuShortcuts=false
; The directory name to use for the StartMenu folder (not available with
; Firefox 4.0 and above - see note below).
; note: if StartMenuShortcuts=false is specified then this will be ignored.
; StartMenuDirectoryName=Mozilla Firefox
As of Firefox 4.0 StartMenuDirectoryName is ignored due to the removal of the start menu directory for Firefox and the creation of a start menu shortcut in the root of the start menu (see bug 598779).
Silent uninstall:
"%ProgramFiles%\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe" /S
Deployment method of Firefox 4.x
1. extract the installation executable file
you will find the folder "core" and the file "setup.exe"
2. in \core\defaults you have to create the folder "profile"
it should look like this: "\core\defaults\profile"
3. in this folder "profile" you can place your own user settings to share it to new firefox profiles
4. either you can place in this "profile" folder the file prefs.js for user settings or you use my method which is explained in point 5
5. instead of prefs.js - I placed one file in the profiles folder which is called "user.js"
By this file the user settings will also set AND if one user will change his own settings, after an restart of firefox - this file will reload my settings to this user
This method is only for new profiles. Existing user profiles will receive the settings either by active setup or by one script, which I have written.
In this script, I ask every existing local user folder for the file prefs.js. If this file existing - I will write in real time my user.js in the assigned Firefox profiles folder.
Now we have one deployable firefox package for new and existing firefox profiles.
To deploy Firefox 4 silently with predefined wpad proxy settings for all users I recommend this way.
1) Install Firefox silently with parameter -ms
Firefox Setup 4.0.exe -ms
2) Create a file called "firefox.js" and put the following lines in it:
pref("network.proxy.autoconfig_url", "http://your.company.proxy:8080/wpad.dat");
pref("network.proxy.type", 2);
3) Copy "firefox.js" to the "%PROGRAMFILES%\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\pref" folder.
For Firefox (x86 en-US) 4.0 I used the following...
Full Command Line: "firefox setup 4.0.exe" -ms
These are my settings I am still testing but so far;
Download Firefox from
Run the Firefox Setup until you get the âWelcome To the Mozilla Firefox Setup Wizardâ
Copy C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Local\Temp\7zS5205.tmp\All Files to a working directory on your desktop
The 7zS5205.tmp folder name will be different but it will hold the setup.exe and folders for the Firefox install
You can exit the setup wizard.
Open your working directory on your desktop
*Disable Migration Tool â Create an override.ini and place it at the root of you working directory
Copy this in that file
*Create another file called Firefox.ini at the root and copy this to that file(I only want the start menu ICON)
Search this file and edit you settings by changing what you donât want to false in you working folder
Disable Checking for Updates
pref("app.update.enabled", false);
Disable Check for Default browser.
pref("browser.shell.checkDefaultBrowser", false);
pref("extensions.update.enabled", false);
pref("browser.search.update", false);
pref("lightweightThemes.update.enabled", false);
pref("browser.tabs.warnOnClose", false);
pref("browser.warnOnQuit", false);
*Change the default home page
Edit localized\browserconfig.properties
Delete the page and copy this
Copy the working directory to the SCCM server create a package
*In SCCM command select the setup.exe then add this to the command line
setup.exe /INI="%CD%\FirefoxSetup.ini"
Now Deploy to your test computers, play with these setting, change what you donât like and keep the ones you do like
Pretty well all of the things that worked on 3.6.x work on 4.0 RC 1 & 2 so far.
I found that the exe you get from Mozilla is an sfx, so you can extract the files, apply your own customisations, and then re-pack the files into a Self Extracting exe file that calls ".\setup.exe". You can get it to call ".\setup.exe -ms" for silent deployment, or if you are cluey, you may be able to get it to pass the -ms flag. (I haven't got this to work for me yet though).
Step 1: Extract the <installEXE> file using a tool like 7zip.
Step 2: Apply any customisations (a few outlined below)
Step 3: Use 7zip or WinRAR (or other) to create an SFX self extractor. **Ensure that it calls ".\setup.exe" (or ".\setup.exe -ms" if you like).
I wanted to deploy Firefox lockdowns WITHOUT using a GPO so this is how I got stuff to work.
ENSURE YOU KNOW ABOUT CFG FILES (if not then look here for information http://www.pcc-services.com/kixtart/firefox-lockdown.html)
1. Install Firefox 4 (using standard defaults)
2. Navigate to C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
3. Right click the OMNI.JAR file and open with Winzip
4. Extract all files to a folder somewhere on the PC
5. Go to that extraction folder and you will see the files in their applicable folder structure.
6. Navigate to the defaults\profile\firefox.js
7. Add the following line to the end of that file
pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
8. Save the file
9. Re-Zip all the files back into a file called OMNI.JAR
10. Replace the original OMNI.JAR file with the new one
11. Drop your mozilla.cfg file in the root of Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
12. Launch Firefox and see your lockdowns work
your uninstallation command line is wrong. uninstall is performed with msiexec /x {PID} /qb! (for silent).
msiexec /I is for install.
Silent Uninstall:
"%ProgramFiles%\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe" /S
unzip firefox setup 4.exe
\firefox setup 4\setup.exe /S /D=[Path]
Worked for me without a problem. It also works when Firefox <4 is installed.
Installation duration: ~3sec (gbit lan)
For Firefox (x86 en-US) 4.0 I used the following...
Full Command Line: "firefox setup 4.0.exe" -ms
For Firefox (3.6.2) 3.6.2 (en-US) I used the following...
Run Parameters: /i
Full Command Line: Firefox-18.104.22.168-en-US.msi /silent

The fact is — however unfair, however much it pains us to admit it — in some areas, men and women are not equal. Is it worth checking a box marked "Equality" at the expense of the operational effectiveness of combat units? Is it worth putting young men at risk so that we, the enlightened Western liberals, might have a new accomplishment to discuss over gougères at cocktail parties? This week, the Obama administration says, yes, that's perfectly okay. Accordingly, a platoon can and will be less combat effective in the name of equality.

Simply amazing.
Once you try the Airblaster Airpill Goggle, you'll wonder why you've been spending twice as much on goggles that are half as good. The wide frame sits close to your face so you have unrestricted peripheral vision without looking like an astronaut, and you never have to worry about scratching your lens again with the Baker lens. Simple styling and ingenuous design make for a goggle that looks good, doesn't try too hard, and works.
- Baker lens has chrome coating on the outer surface of the inner lens so you can't scratch it no matter what
- Moisture Impermeable Lens Function (MILF) technology allows air to pass in and out of the space between the lenses to prevent fogging
- Helmet compatible so you can play it safe
- Anti-fog coating keeps your lens clear

is the amber chrome lens fully reflective?
Lexi Dowdall
Member since
Hey there, thanks for the question.
The amber lens is suitable for a wide range of conditions: sunny, partly sunny, partly cloudy, cloudy, snowy. It's a great all-around lens.
If by fully reflective you mean 'mirrored', these lenses do have some reflection, but they are not fully mirrored. You will be able to see the user's face and eyes through the lenses.

MONTCLAIR, N.J. (AP) - Republican New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Democrat Barbara Buono will hold their second and final debate in the New Jersey governor's race.
The pair will field questions on the Montclair State University campus Tuesday night.
In their first debate last week, Buono attacked Christie as an ambitious politician whose every calculation is based on his national aspirations.
Christie didn't rule out a 2016 presidential run. But the governor also stressed his ability to reach consensus with New Jersey's Democrat-led Legislature.
The 90 minute debate starts at 8 p.m. and will be televised by public television station NJTV and C-Span.

We're not stupid so stop insulting us
Last updated at 13:04, Tuesday, 08 May 2012
It always surprises me how, after an election, anyone calling themselves a politician can claim to know why people voted the way they did... and even why they didn't vote at all.
Latest up was, of course, last Thursday's council elections. Big swing to Labour. Huge.
Locally and nationally the face of grass-roots representation changed its complexion. For the first time in a long time the hitherto confident and, well, frankly quite smug, were eating humble pie.
At least they should have been. In fact, they could have been, had they taken a moment or two to consider their words before recklessly speaking them.
But sadly, from Minister to humble backbencher, most gave little or no thought to what they repeated as response to an unambiguous result – which was more than could have been said of the last general election – and chose instead to insult voters.
It always happens, mid-term, they said. It's a protest vote against central government's necessary austerity measures.
The result was expected. Too low a turnout for it to be truly representative of the mood of the country.
Or in other, more simple words, voters don't know what they're doing, can't think for themselves and we clever politicos knew exactly what you sheep would do.
In that case, why hold an election at all? Or is that what they'd really prefer?
Forgive my naivety. I remain a political ingenue. But isn't the point of any democratic poll to allow the people to speak?
And, once having given the people their voice, is it wise to tell them you knew exactly what they were going to say even before they'd said it – because you're so much cleverer than the people?
It's hardly surprising so many potential voters choose not to bother at all. If we're not to be given credit for thinking for ourselves, forming an opinion and voting seriously and purposefully on conscience and belief in the greater good, what's the point?
Much talk of apathy being at the bottom of a swing away from coalition parties in local elections has been particularly irritating.
Whose apathy would that be then?
Where I live – and I have lived there for six years – I have never yet seen a canvasser or candidate of any description at my doorstep asking for my support.
No one has seen fit personally to put their case for the greater good, none has chosen to ring the doorbell and outline plans and promises of the work they will undertake on my behalf.
On the Saturday before last week's local elections, I received through my letterbox a Tory leaflet – and an envelope from Christian Aid.
I can at least be sure the Christian Aid collector will turn up and argue his case for my money at some point – which is more than I can say for anyone claiming to know how I voted and why, even without knowing I existed.
Apathy? I ask again, whose apathy? Infectious, isn't it?

TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) - A Tempe business posing as a so-called compassion club has been busted for illegally selling marijuana to customers.
Tempe police say three employees of Delta 9 also were arrested in the case Tuesday.
Neighboring businesses tipped police about Delta 9 and investigators say they found large quantities of marijuana and no license to sell it.
Police say there are two legal marijuana dispensaries in Tempe and Delta 9 isn't one of them.

2012 Baltimore celebrity news [Pictures]
What a year, when one of the most-talked-about humans on the planet just happens to be a Baltimorean. Michael Phelps, who became the most decorated Olympian of all time and the world's least AARP-y retiree, kept Baltimore's name in lights throughout 2012. But he had help from Maryland's other native sons and daughters -- from Stacy Keibler's romancing a Hollywood A-lister to John Waters' delightful Interstate adventure. In 2012, Baltimore had the paparazzi charging their batteries.
-- Jill Rosen, Baltimore Insider blog, @BaltInsider on Twitter
Image 1 of 9
Michael Phelps( AFP/Getty Images / August 4, 2012 )
Lest anyone doubt his global presence, Phelps single-handedly turned a barnyard animal into a trending search term. Goat? Ah, yes, GOAT. Phelps took London by storm and yet, perhaps fitting for a goat, still had to eat a huge loss on his Fells Point bachelor pad before moving to a shinier set-up in Canton.
A retiree at 27, Phelps kept busy pitching products, mugging for magazine covers and contending for various "being of the year" honors. He also courted a new lady-friend, introducing waitress/model Megan Rossee to the red carpet, his family and the joys of Maryland crabs.
And just like many wizened folks enjoying their golden years, Phelps took up cards and golf -- hanging out on the poker circuit and signing up for a show on The Golf Channel where pro Hank Haney taught him how to swing.

WEDNESDAY, Feb. 2 (HealthDay News) -- The earlier a person
begins puberty, the lower their risk of osteoporosis later in life,
a small new study suggests.
The research was based on 78 girls and 84 boys, who were studied
from the time they began puberty until they reached sexual
maturity. The investigators found that adult bone mineral density
was influenced by age at puberty onset, with greater bone mass
linked to early puberty and less bone mass associated with later
puberty. However, bone strength did not seem to be affected by how
long puberty lasted.
"Puberty has a significant role in bone development," study leader Dr. Vicente Gilsanz, director of clinical imaging at the Saban Research Institute of Children's Hospital Los Angeles, said in a hospital news release.
"During this time, bones lengthen and increase in density. At the end of puberty the epiphyseal plates close, terminating the ability of the bones to lengthen. When this occurs, the teenager has reached their maximum adult height and peak bone mass," Gilsanz explained.
Reduced bone mineral density leads to osteoporosis, which
affects 55 percent of Americans aged 50 and older. In 2010, the
estimated cost of treating osteoporosis in the United States was
$10 billion.
The normal rate of bone mass decline in adulthood is about 1 to
2 percent each year. This means that a 10 to 20 percent increase in
bone density resulting from a naturally early puberty could provide
an additional 10 to 20 years of protection against normal
age-related decline in bone strength, according to the
The study was published in the January issue of the
Journal of Pediatrics.

You don't need an art degree or a beret to make your lady look sexy through the lens.
Ditch the flash.
The light from your camera's flash is hard and unforgiving, so she'll look shiny, and imperfections will be highlighted. You can put a piece of white masking tape over it to soften the glare or just ditch it altogether. Stick her next to a big window: Soft daylight makes Photoshop all but unnecessary. Unless she has a goiter.
Zoom in.
Take a few steps back and use the zoom to frame your lady. Wide-angle lenses make every-
thing in the middle of the picture look bigger and everything around the edges stretch like a fun-
house mirror. You may love what that does to her boobs, but she'll be not so psyched when her nose looks like it belongs on a UFC fighter's face.
Don't cut off her limbs.
A bad crop can make the sexiest model look like an awkward amputee (if that's what you're into, carry on). Try to keep some space between her arm and leg joints and the edge of the picture, and don't chop off the top of her head. It creates the illusion of a huge forehead, like some kind of sexy Frankenstein (again, if that's your thing, go for it).

about intimate relationships. His essay told the story of a mythical beast who was split in half by Zeus and rearranged. This forced the beasts to embrace each other in order to have sexual relations. It gives rise to the idea that the need for love comes from the longing to be reunited with one's long lost other half. The reunion of the two halves reconnects the ancient unity destroyed by Zeus. I wonder if the sayings, "my better half" or "my other half" comes from this myth.
I do not believe that people are incomplete when they are alone, but this story certainly speaks to the human need to be accepted, appreciated, understood, and loved.

A Beautiful Wedding
Saturday, Angela Livingston, Gini Steinberg and I enjoyed walking around downtown Selma and even crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge. We met Kelly, Meredith and Kathy at a Mexican Restaurant downtown for lunch.
The 6:00 PM wedding was at First Baptist Church and the reception afterwards was at Sturdivant Hall. ...
Rehearsal Dinner
As I drove through Alabama, I saw hundreds of yard sales. The state much have declared it a state-wide yard sale day! Larry joked that this was how most Alabama residents paid for their children's wedding.
Lots of friends from Charlotte attended the rehearsal dinner. The Friday night rehearsal dinner was lovely. It was held at an old warehouse that had been converted to an arts center. Food and fellowship was ...
Selma, Yikes.
... Photos of the hanger and the surrounding airfield are included here.
From Tuskegee we headed west bound for the Selma to Montgomery Historical Highway, which looks a heckova lot like a regular old road to the untrained eye. To be fair, this road is actually very pretty, too, in places. I guess the biggest complaint I have about it is that it ends up in Selma.
NASA space and Rocket Centre, Huntsville, Alabama
One of the best things about a road trip is being able to stop along the way when you something catches your eye. As we were driving through Alabama, we spotted the NASA space center. It looked interesting so we stopped for a few hours to have a look around the museum and space centre, and learned all about the NASA program for exploration on the moon.
AK 47 photos
... bridge today. I'm planning to hit a segregated school tomorrow, though Patrick is resisting it, before we head off to Montgomery, a great mixture where buses meet History. Struggling to find a cup of tea in this place but otherwise going well. This is our first night in a motel, so couch surfing and SERVAS has been interesting for us.
Love to all
John and Patrick

Santa Rosa, NM (CNN) — Serious storms forming over New Mexico's mountains are drifting Southward.
Santa Rosa is receiving all of what they have to offer.
Forecasters winds of 50-60 miles-per-hour, threats of flooding, along with half-dollar-size hail.
The storms are expected to increase in intensity and are on track to hit the town of Kingston, New Mexico, which escaped flames of a wildfire just two weeks ago.

It was one of those random things. Mary Jo Tye was flipping channels and saw an actress in tears as she waited for her breast biopsy results. Mary Jo decided it was time for a self exam. That's when she found it — something odd.
She was a healthy 44-year-old who got regular mammograms, but wanted to make sure all was well before going on vacation. She asked her physician to check it out and he recommended an immediate mammogram and ultrasound. The results were Bi RADs Level 5, which is highly suggestive of malignancy.
Now Mary Jo had a decision to make. She needed to choose the team to help her fight the battle against breast cancer. After getting a first opinion elsewhere, she met with the staff from Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin's Breast Cancer Program. "From the first moment, I knew it was a good decision," recounts Mary Jo.
The team recommended a lumpectomy. If the margins were not clear, a second surgery would be scheduled. Mary Jo questioned why the decision to do a mastectomy couldn't be made immediately, while she was still under anesthetic. The surgeon told her he didn't want her to wake up without a breast; that it is something you need to prepare for mentally.
As she was grappling with the decision to do a lumpectomy or mastectomy, she sought the advice of Julia White, MD, Medical College of Wisconsin radiation oncologist. Dr. White told her, "Mary Jo: we wouldn't give you two options if we didn't feel both would give you the same results." Consequently, Mary Jo relates, "I trusted her. I was confident in her. I made the decision, but she reassured me."
Fortunately, the margins were clear after the lumpectomy was performed and no further surgery was needed.
Concern for her mental as well as physical well-being characterized Mary Jo's care, as well as the latest medical technology. The tumor was evaluated using Oncotype DX® testing, which helps doctors select treatment and predict cancer recurrence. Tumors are rated on a scale of 1-100, indicating the percent chance of recurrence. Tumors above 19 are generally treated with chemotherapy. Mary Jo's was rated 19.5-20.
Mary Jo chose chemotherapy. "I cried. I didn't want to lose my hair." Now her support network — both in the hospital and at home — rose to the task.
Oncology Certified Nurse Jill Royten, BSN, RN, met Mary Jo as she was about to start chemotherapy. "It's always a difficult time for a patient," Jill explains, "particularly for women, who are pivotal to the everyday function of the family."Part of Jill's role was to make the treatments work with the rest of Mary Jo's life. As a single mother and principal of an elementary school, Mary Jo's work was essential to her family. Appointments were scheduled so that the toughest recovery days fell on the weekends and she could return to school as soon as possible.
Mary Jo's mother came to live with her and her son for four months to manage home life. "I worked but I had no responsibilities at home," recalls Mary Jo. "My mother arrived just when my hair started falling out and left when it was growing back."
Mary Jo also had tests to determine whether the cancer had a genetic link, which would have implications for her son, sister and mother, as well as her own risk for ovarian cancer. Thankfully, all these tests turned out negative.
Next came seven weeks of radiation treatments, five days per week. Toward the end of the treatments, the technicians told Mary Jo's doctor they noticed a change in her mood. As she neared the end of the battle, she was feeling dispirited and anxious. "They picked up on that and told the doctor. The personal touch — from every single person — was amazing to me."
Now cancer free for 3-1/2 years, Mary Jo has nothing but praise for the breast cancer care team at Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin. She appreciates the collaborative approach to individual care and urges everyone to get a second opinion. "There is little you have control over, but you do have control over the team you choose."
The Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin Clinical Cancer Center offers comprehensive care in one location. Each specialized cancer program includes a complete team of physician experts who focus on a particular form of cancer or group of related cancers. For patients, the benefits are completely coordinated treatment and the most advanced care available.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Travelodge (formerly TraveLodge) refers to several hotel chains around the world. Current operations include: the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Spain, the Republic of Ireland, New Zealand and Australia. However, many of these are operated by independent companies who have no connection with the brand in other countries.
The Travelodge brand was one of the first motel chains in the United States. It was established by the original Travelodge Corporation's founder, Scott King, in 1939 with the opening of the chain's first motels in Southern California. The first TraveLodge opened in San Diego in 1940. For many years, Travelodge was headquartered in El Cajon, California, east of San Diego. During its early years, TraveLodge emphasized itself as a budget motel chain that offered functional accommodations at rates lower than other chains by shunning fancy frills in favor of functional amenities such as comfortable beds, free TV and room phones, carpeted floors, in-room coffee pots and swimming pools. TraveLodge also emphasized that its motels were centrally located in or near downtown areas in order to be convenient to local restaurants, churches, theatres, shopping areas and tourist attractions. Today, however, there are many different hotel "tiers" that Travelodge offers, from budget-priced properties to full-service high-rise hotels.
In North America, Travelodge is franchised by Wyndham Worldwide, the world's largest hotel chain. Targeting families with children, it is best known for its mascot Sleepy Bear, a half awake teddy bear wearing a sleeping cap with his name, a robe with the Travelodge logo, and slippers. Some time ago, Travelodge would give a free toy plush bear to any child staying in the Sleepy Bear Den room, of which every Travelodge used to have at least one. Travelodge also has a brand of lower-price motels called Thriftlodge with another mascot named TJ, a freckle-faced bear with a baseball cap and a T-shirt with the Thriftlodge logo and the name TJ on it.[1]
Skylight Inns, founded in Cleveland, Ohio in 1982,[2] was bought out by Travelodge in 1989.[3]
The Sleepy Bear Den is a room decorated in Sleepy Bear material. Each room has lampshades, comforters, curtains, and posters themed after Sleepy Bear. Travelodge used to give out free toy plush "sleepy bears" to any guest staying in the Sleepy Bear Den. Extras included a VCR in which children's films could be rented in the lobby. Several Travelodge properties are doing away with the Sleepy Bear den, citing high costs in maintaining a single type of room that is not consistent with the others. Remaining Sleepy Bear Dens are disappearing during renovations, and are being converted to standard rooms.
The Canadian Travelodge hotels are unusual for a Wyndham chain. Though operating under the Travelodge brand, Travelodge Canada administers the Master License for Travelodge and Thriftlodge in Canada. Travelodge Canada Corp. is a subsidiary of Royal Host Corp. [1] based in Calgary, Alberta.
As of November 2012, Travelodge hotels in Canada switched over from Guest Rewards to Wyndham, which means points can be collected here as well. It is free to apply, all that is needed is ones name, address, phone number, and email (though email is optional).
Travelodge Canada also shares an exclusive partnership with HBC, better known by its member stores the Bay, Zellers, Home Outfitters and more. This affiliation gives Travelodge guests in Canada the opportunity to participate in HBC Rewards [2], a program unique to Travelodge Canada.
With over 110 properties nationwide, Travelodge is the third largest hotel chain in Canada.

Approximately 1,230 students voted during the three days of primary elections. Even though the candidates who didn't make it were disappointed, this won't stop some of them from getting involved.

Rape awareness highlighted by activities at WSU By Angela Wadman news edilOT-The Signpost One out of four women will be raped before they leave college, according to MarLee Brinton, Peers Educating to End Rape coordinator.In conjunction with the state observance of April as Sexual Violence Prevention Month, Brinton wants to raise campus and community awareness about the growing issue through the activities planned. "It is to provide a basis for people to become aware of sexual violence," she said. "It's frape a people issue, a social issue." Though people are more open today about rape, it is still continuing, she said. "We need to push forward with it," Brinton said. "One in 10 rapes will be reported. The majority is not being reported." Marisa Black, Services for Women Students secretary, said the key role in reducing rape is communication between the genders. "Dialogue is the issue. Communication is so vital," Black said. Most people arc under-educated about rape, Brinton said. "People see rape as a stranger that jumps out and attacks you," she said. J Ialf of the rapes occur in the victims home, and 80 percent of the victims knew their perpetrator, Brinton said. Black said rape victims are not only women. ; "Rape crosses all barrier lines. Men are being raped," she said. Rape can occur in any relationship, and it does not always deal with sex, Brinton said. Red flags will be displayed through the Moench Mall starting on April 27. Each flag represents a 1997 sexual survivo'. See Rape page 9 Earth Dav 1 Want to save the world? Try starting Wednesday By Kristen Geary news writer-The Signpost Weber State University's campus will come to life Wednesday as the celebration of Earth Day begins. . Tree planting and xeriscaping are among several activities WSU has planned for this nation-wide day of environmental awareness. "Celebrating Earth Day is important for both practical and spiritual reasons," said Arthur Caplan, an economics professor and member of the Environmental Issues Standing Committee. "It's a chance for individuals to become involved in a shared responsibility and accomplish tasks on a greater scale. It's also an opportunity to garner a spiritual connection with the energy, will and concern of people all over the world." Sponsored by the EISC, a group comprised of WSU students, faculty and staff, this year's events will focus on conserving water and landscaping the campus. The festivities will begin at 9 a.m. when volunteers and 20 preschoolers begin planting trees east of the Lind Lecture Hall. Then at 1 0 a.m., Nancy Fox, WSU's environmental safety manager, will give a short lesson on how to protect the Earth. This will be followed by another session of tree planting along the hillside west of the Marriott Allied Health Building. Next will be the ground breaking of the "water-wisc'Vxeriscapcd gardens, designed for the local climate with the ability to prosper with less water than traditional gardens. These activities will be accompanied by an Earth Day mall to be displayed on campus throughout the day. This mall will include many exhibitors such as Bike Utah, the Ogdcn Nature Center and the Ogdcn Canyon Club. All students arc invited to take part in these activities.

|Weber State University
|Associated Students of Weber State University; A generous grant from the Utah State Library and the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
|Weber's current student newspaper, the Signpost, first appeared on September 29, 1937. For two years prior to that time, campus news was disseminated via announcements posted on a bulletin board known as the "Signpost". As a result, the masthead of the first issue of the paper itself featured a rudimentary wooden sign with the title spelled out in rustic-looking letters. Over the years the paper has been published continuously, though the look, size and style has changed several times.

Most kids in Michiana were heading back to school Thursday after an extended winter break. The polar vortex that brought snow and frigid temperatures to Michiana canceled classes for all area students earlier this week.
Parents we spoke to at Liberty Elementary in Mishawaka were happy to see the kids getting back into their normal routine. "I love my son," said Danielle Chester, "But it's nice to see him go back to school."
Danielle said her son wasn't quite as happy about the return to classes. "He was dreading this morning," she said. Some kids were excited, though. Anna Porter said he grandson was definitely looking forward to school. "He happier than I am," Anna told us.
Schools have been granted a waiver for the first two days of cancellations by the state. That means they'll only have to make-up the Wednesday classes sometime in the future.
Teresa Caroll with PHM schools says they'll do their make-up day on March 21st. They are also pushing back finals for the first semester a few days. Caroll says the end of the first semester is now January 17, instead of January 14.
Shawn Hannon with Elkhart schools says they have not decided whether they are going to request a waiver or not. Elkhart has three snow days built into their calendar, and are prepared to teach a full 180 day school year.
Mishawaka told us they also applied for the waiver and will make up for yesterdays closing with a make-up day on March 28th. They and most districts have some snow days built into their calendar. They also have a make up day scheduled for April 21st -- to make up for their snow day earlier in December.
South Bend Community School Corporation told us they applied for the waiver on Wednesday. They will use Monday, April 21st as a make-up day. They will end their semester on time.
Other schools are considering changes to their schedules as well. You should check with your school district for information on make-up days.

Time to give credit where credit is due: the 2007 Presidential Green Chemistry Challenge Awards are in, recognizing some very hard working EcoGeeks who are doing their part to make our world a better place. Winners this year have discovered a nanotechnology-based catalyst capable of producing hydrogen peroxide from renewable feedstocks, a formaldehyde-free adhesive for making wood composites, a process for synthesizing an ingredient for polyurethane foam (used in bedding and cialis mail order furniture) without petroleum oil, a green technique for prepping donor tissue for transplant, and a new class of chemical reactions using hydrogen and metal catalysts which minimize waste in industrial applications.
"The EPA estimates that over the past 12 years, the winners' work has led to the tramadol 50 mg tablets elimination of over 940 million pounds of hazardous chemicals and solvents, [the use of] over 600 million gallons of buying levitra in canada water and more than 340 million pounds of carbon dioxide.
Kudos to Professors Michael Krische and Kaichang Li, and the innovative chemists at NovaSterilis, Columbia Forest Products, Hercules Inc., Headwaters Technology Innovation, and Cargill Inc.

Somerset Place is a representative state historic site offering a comprehensive and realistic view of 19th-century life on a large North Carolina plantation. Originally, this unusual plantation included more than 100,000 densely wooded, mainly swampy acres bordering the five-by-eight mile Lake Phelps, in present-day Washington County. During its 80 years as an active plantation (1785-1865), hundreds of acres were converted into high yielding fields of rice, corn, oats, wheat, beans, peas, and flax; sophisticated sawmills turned out thousands of feet of lumber. By 1865, Somerset Place was one of the upper South's largest plantations. Continued

Attracted but Unsatisfied: The Effects of Arousing Content on Television Consumption Choices
AbstractThis paper investigates experimentally the effects of arousing content on viewing choices and satisfaction in television consumption. We test the hypothesis that the portrayal of arousing content combines high attraction and low satisfaction and is thus responsible for suboptimal choices. In our experiment, subjects can choose among three programs during a viewing session. In the experimental condition, one of the three programs portrays a violent verbal conflict, whereas in the control condition the same program portrays a calm debate. A post-experimental questionnaire is used to assess subjects' satisfaction with the programs and the overall viewing experience. The results support the hypothesis: the presence of arousing content causes sub- jects to watch more of a given program, although they experience lower content-specific and overall satisfaction. Arousing contents also significantly increase the discrepancy between actual and desired viewing.

Libraries and Workforce Development Work Together to Help Jobseekers
With an interview scheduled for the afternoon, Jane, a jobseeker in her late 30s, stopped by her local library in need of a resume. While her Warren Branch librarians could direct her to a resume builder site and print resources, due to a new partnership, they were also able to connect her directly with a trained WorkOne professional for help. Working alongside the jobseeker, WorkOne's Robin Blair helped her create and tailor her new resume for her interview. Three days later, Jane came back to the Warren Branch, sharing her good news that she got the job.
Mobile Labs Improve Job Searches and Outcomes
Libraries have always been a valuable resource for job seekers. Access to computers and the Internet, critical tools for today's job search, allow patrons to find open positions and apply to them. But in a challenging economy and facing their own budget cuts, the Indianapolis-Marion County Public Library (IMCPL) recognized that patrons needed more personalized services like resume writing help, interview preparation and help managing online application processes to help them compete in today's difficult economy.
In partnership with EmployIndy's WorkOne offices, IMCPL created Job Center Mobile Labs in six library branches in 2011. This project receives financial support from the Indianapolis Foundation Library Fund and the Glick Fund, both Central Indiana Community Foundation (CICF) funds. WorkOne staff and library assistants work together in the Job Centers, providing individual support to job seekers. With six laptops available at each participating branch, people who need help can find both the expertise and technology needed for success in today's job market.
Since the Job Center Mobile Labs launched in June 2011, more than 4,000 visitors have used the labs' services to advance their job search, resume writing, interview and computer skills. They also receive free USB flash drives, transportable memory devices on which they can save resumes and important documents. In addition to these services, 34 Job Center visitors connect to more in-depth WorkOne services and programs on average each month.
The IMCPL-WorkOne partnership provides local job seekers with the individualized help they need. Beyond that practical reality, the Job Center staff helps patrons find hope and realize small but necessary successes on their path to employment like refined resumes, interview practice or just the confirmation that their online application makes it to a hiring manager.
Unemployment in 2012
Americans over 55 have faced significant challenges in the current economy. In November 2007, the unemployment rate for people over 55 was 2.9%. By November 2011, that rate was 6.2%, falling from its peak at 7.6% in 2010.
The job search of 2012 is very different from what many older workers have experienced in the past. Employers generally require applicants to complete online forms or submit resumes and cover letters online. Industries may use new keywords to assess qualifications.
The economy downturn has reached other diverse groups, too. Youth between 16 and 25 who are actively seeking work are twice as likely to be unemployed than the average worker. Workers without a high school diploma were twice as likely to be unemployed in 2011 as they were in 2007.
The greatest challenge for many of these workers, as well as all unemployed Hoosiers, is the difficult task of starting from scratch. A qualified partner at the library, a neighborhood resource, can make that process a bit easier.
Partnership in Action
Several forms of partnership drive the success of the Job Center Mobile Labs. IMCPL not only identified a critical need for their patrons, they engaged a highly qualified group to meet that need. The library interns and WorkOne staff share their own skills; interns learn to provide resume help and WorkOne employees can manage basic computer glitches. Through the Library Fund and the Glick Fund, CICF provides necessary financial support for the project.
The most powerful partnership, however, takes place between the clients of the Job Center Mobile Labs and the staff who offers the boost of knowledge, hope or skills that can propel a search into a well-paying job.
A New Place to Find Help
On a brisk winter day, three men and one younger woman sit in front of laptops at the College Avenue library branch. Their chatter and smiles rises and subsides, as they focus on the next steps in their job searches.
A man in his 50s receives guidance for tailoring his resume to fit the management positions he's interested in instead of the labor positions he worked 20 years ago while two other men sit side-by-side, comparing notes on online applications. A young woman, barely over 20, revises her resume. Two staffers – one from WorkOne and one from the library – move around the room, offering feedback on writing, help navigating web-based applications, and affirming words when the group hits barriers large and small.
"It can be a job to get a job," says Rene Arndt, a WorkOne staff member working with the College Avenue Branch Job Center. But with the help of WorkOne, IMCPL, the Glick Fund and The Indianapolis Foundation Library Fund, that job just got a little bit easier.
You can make a difference!
Our mission at Central Indiana Community Foundation is to inspire, support, and practice philanthropy, leadership and service in the community. We do that by: identifying community-wide issues; working with effective not-for-profits to address those needs; and serving as a philanthropic partner to individuals, family foundations and businesses who are interested in making central Indiana a better place for everyone.

The US is NOT freindly to teachers from abroad. Each state has its own rules for what is required for a teaching license. It usually requires one or two YEARS of additional college classes.
While the pay is not as high there are MANY openings in commercial pre-schools where there are not such difficult qualifications.
Best to decide where you want to live and THEN ask about teacher license requirements.

Some designers with amazing talents are rightfully given the attention their work deserves from their peers, while some designers with mediocre talents, perhaps, are not so deservedly brought into the spotlight. As much as meritocracy sounds nice, I don't believe it's truly accurate, popularity does not equal skill or talent.
There's no numeric figure to represent popularity, it's relative to the level of work being created and what is being compared to what. Some listed might seem like 'under the radar' isn't an appropriate label for them. However, in the huge expanse of the internet, and with the rising popularity of letterforms I think they should have more attention than they do already, on dribbble at least.
Regardless of the point made above, these accounts light up my feed.

After the news Christina Aguilera and her husband Jordan Bratman have split comes the revelation the singer has already filed for divorce.
Christina put her name on a divorce petition which was filed against her husband in the LA Superior Court on Thursday.
She cited "irreconcilable differences" as the cause of the collapse of their marriage of five years.
The petition said the couple had signed a prenuptial agreement to separate their assets.
It stipulated that Jordan would get none of the money his wife earned before, during or after their marriage.
Christina, 29, is also asking the judge to grant joint custody of the couple's two-year-old son, Max.

Really, I understand: Our city was attacked. Two fuck-ups scared the shit out of us on Marathon Monday. #BostonStrong
Okay. I'll be frank with you, Boston. I'm so sick of hearing and seeing #BostonStrong. Aside from location, I don't see why this tragedy is a Boston thing.
Atlanta was bombed; Oklahoma City was bombed; NYC was torpedoed with planes. Then, it was a human tragedy. But, here, it's something else. Why is Boston so special as to warrant an exclusive camp of "Boston survivors," Bostonians?
The terrorists lived here—as actual residents. They weren't an "external force" targeting Boston folk, history, or culture. They were sick fucks who took advantage of a large crowd.
This was an attack on people, and some of them weren't even from Boston or the US. In fact, one of the three murdered marathon victims was from China.
My point: Boston has always been stuffy and self-centered. This tragic event only reinforces that notion.

Mat Luschek / NBC Bay Area
Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak thinks the product ecosystem of Apple puts it in position to soar its stock price.
Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak said today that Apple still has potential for tremendous growth and that its stock price could easily hit $1,000 this year.
"You know, people talk about $1,000 stock price... you know, at first you want to doubt it but I actually believe that and I don't really follow stock markets," Wozniak said.
While we aren't inclined to agree with the overly optimistic $1,000 price unless we see some tangible evidence of innovation and sales, it's more than likely the stock price will continue to rise in the near future. With the impending iPad 3 announcement fueled by Apple fanboy fever, shares could reach more than $700 by next week.
