Win 7 Professional 32-bit
When I navigate to the WDM folder, device manager is only looking for folders and I cannot select the .inf file to install the driver. How can I manually enter the location of the .inf so that I can manually install the driver?
Update: Solved that issue via search available drivers>next>have disk.
When I tried to install, I got the following error:
Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it.
Creative SoundFont Synthesiser
The extended attributes are inconsistent.
I have the Creative SoundBlaster Live! card. Any thoughts? Thanks!

thanks stormy,
i've got an x-fi xtreme gamer - will i get any benefits from using danny_k drivers?
currently i'm using vanilla drivers, only problem i have with them is with fallout 3 and alchemy settings - i've tried lots of buffer/duration combinations but still get so many crashes that i hardly play that great game anymore...
Another problem with that game is that if you reach the Jefferson Memorial with out it being on your agenda the game will just keep crashing unless you start over again.
It's a well known problem with that game and it's fixed with the patch but once you get to the Memorial without it being on your game agenda it's hopeless and the patch will not fix that problem unless you start the game all over again. I reinstalled the game then installed the patch and it's working much better now.

Oliver welcome to the forums.
Have you done a thorough cleaning after all those driver installs? If not I would start with uninstalling anything Creative related in Programs and Features as well as uninstall the card (if still showing) in Device Manager. Then reboot and go into safe mode and use this,
Guru3D - Driver Sweeper
to get rid of anything left. Then try just the X-Fi Support Pack 2.0. It may also take moving the card to another slot (if available) to get it to work properly (had to do just that with an Audigy 4 that had worked flawlessly in XP but started acting up when I installed Vista).
For nabilalk, what model is your SB Live (actual number on the card that will be either CTxxx or SBxxx)?

i have uninstalled everything creative related, havent uninstalled the card yet, thats next on the agenda!

Stormy is correct, the creative card you mentioned should be getting support for Win 7 but those creative drivers can be a real pain. Once they mess up you need to remove any and all traces of the old Creative drivers before they will work again.
This sometimes involves manually removing the old drivers because Driver Sweeper doesn't always get them all.
You can get the Win 7 drivers for Audigy SE here. Creative Worldwide Support > Audigy SE
I have the Asus Xonar D2 card and it works perfectly with the newest drivers from Asus, highly recommended.

Cellulite treatment – when it comes to surgery
Cellulite is a common occurrence in a woman of any age. While doctors don't know for sure what causes cellulite, it's a fact that it can affect even the women that are in the best of shape. While there is no overnight miracle available to make your cellulite vanish, there is a cellulite treatment out there that could right for you and help to greatly diminish your cellulite or provide cellulite removal for several months at a time. When it comes to cellulite, women will try anything that may or may not remotely work. It's a challenge to get rid of cellulite and if you're a woman that's losing the battle, you may opt to even try cellulite removal surgery. While this may not be the typical route for some women, due to the invasiveness of cellulite removal surgery or simply because it's not affordable, other women trudge on, determined to find a cellulite treatment that will work for them, whatever the cost.
Cellulite Treatment: surgical procedures
Because traditional liposuction used as a cellulite removal procedure can sometimes make cellulite look worse by creating more skin depressions, aggravating the connecting tissue, doctor have come up with a special form of liposuction designed for cellulite. This type of surgery is called Laser Lipolysis. The claim for this form of liposuction is that when used with a laser, the laser will actually help to tighten the skin, improving the appearance of cellulite. There has been no type of formal study done on this type of Liposuction as of yet, considering it is a newer procedure.
Cellulite subcision is another type of cellulite treatment. This type of procedure involves the cutting of fibrous bands of connective tissue, causing the fat in this area to drop down and be distributed evenly in the area, getting rid of the dimpled pockets of fat that cause cellulite. This is said to give some individuals amazing results, but it is also a very invasive and painful treatment. It also may be hard to find a doctor that can perform the procedure as it's not widely available.
Belt lipectomy is a cellulite removal treatment where excess skin is removed. The remaining skin is tightened to fit over the area, in a new and lifted position. While it may not completely get rid of cellulite, it can dramatically leave your skin with a newer smoother appearance; however, this type of procedure will leave the individual with a significant amount of scarring.
Fat grafting is a cellulite treatment where the patient's own fat cells are grafted in areas where cellulite occurs and is used to fill in the fatty pockets of the flesh that causes the bumpy cellulite appearance. However, because the fat will eventually be absorbed by your body, this is not a permanent cellulite removal solution.
Cellulite Treatment: the less invasive approach
If you aren't ready to go under the knife, for whatever reason, there are definitely less invasive approaches available, some may work for you, but most will do their best to only diminish the appearance of cellulite.
Cellulite creams, self-massage or professional massage and an array of home remedies can help to make your cellulite appear less prominent.
Cellulite Treatment: Know your options
If you've tried all the over-the-counter creams, exercised, been massaged and changed your diet and it still you haven't found an effective cellulite treatment that works for you, there's no shame in wanting to try surgery as a cellulite treatment. There's risks with every type of surgery, so be sure to carefully research the type of procedure you're interested in as well as consult a plastic surgeon for a consultation to be sure you get all the information you need to make an educated decision.

Finland may be the home of cellular phone giant, Nokia, but the country is beginning to make a name for itself in the automotive industry with a very special electric sports car a couple of years in the making.
We last heard about the ERA Electric Raceabout last year, so it was a little surprising that it took this long for the car to get back on the radar. Having said that, the Electric Raceabout is back in the news after spending some quality testing time at the world famous Nurburgring.
The electric sports car is the brainchild of the Helsinki Metropolia University of Applied Sciences and is being developed to become a serious player in a growing market. Details behind the car are still sketchy at best, but we do know that it weighs 1,700 kg and is built with a carbon fiber monococque chassis with high-strength steel sub-frames and double wishbones with adjustable coil-overs.
UPDATE 09/30/2011: The E-RA has turned out to be a real menace out on the track, setting the new EV record at the Nurburgring. During the attempt, the car was driven by German race driver, Ralf Kelleners, who needed to complete a full lap of 20,832 km in a time of only 8 minutes and 42.372 seconds. The average speed for the lap was 88 mph and the top speed was clocked in at 147 mph. What's more impressive is that, during testing, the car hit a top speed of 151 mph. The E-RA consumed 25.6 kWh during its record lap, measured as energy taken from the grid to recharge the battery. This results in an energy consumption of 1230 Wh/km or 123 kWh/100km for the lap.
More details on the E-RA Electric Raceabout after the jump.
Exterior and Interior
The Electric Raceabout (E-RA) features a clean design language signed by the famous Institute of Design, Lahti Polytechnic. The car weights just 1700 kilos (3747 lbs) with a 43/57 weight distribution. The new E-RA is built on a carbon fiber monocoque and features high strength steel sub-frames and double wishbones with adjustable coil-overs.
The E-RA is a two-seater model that, according to the company, defines the future sports car. It features a long front and a shorter. The model is painted in a two-tone color scheme, including visible carbon-fiber texture, and features special front fenders, a forward-leaning stance, shoulder line, and roofline.
The ER-A is based on the lightweight aluminum chassis of the Audi R8 - from which it also takes the racing brakes. It is powered by four electric motors - one placed at each wheel. The four engines deliver a total of 268 HP and a peak torque of 737 HP and they will sprint the car from 0 to 60 mph in about six seconds, while top speed is about 124 mph.
The four engines take their power from an Altair NanoTechnologies 330kW Lithium-Titanate battery pack with 250kW charger which allows the vehicle to be recharged within 10-minutes. The vehicle has an autonomy of about 124 miles.
The E-RA is still in its testing phase, taking a 800 km trip through the Alps from Italy to Switzerland and lapping the Nurburgring in 9 minutes and 36 seconds. Once the testing is complete and the car is closer to production, we're sure the pricing information will become readily available.
The ER-A is getting ahead in its testing just in time for a slew of electric cars ready to contend in the growing market, like the Opel Ampera and the Lightning GT . Of course, since production is nowhere near on the table, the ER-A may just miss the bus of opportunity and get left behind.
- Great look
- Is based on the Audi R8
- Impressive performance
- The car is still in the development phase
- There are much more powerful electric cars out there

Libyan Islamists rally to demand sharia-based law
Hundreds of Islamists rallied on Friday to demand that Libya be governed by Muslim sharia law in what organisers called a response to the emergence of secular political parties after the fall of Muammar Gaddafi's dictatorship last year.
Organised by Islamist political and religious groups, the mostly young and bearded men holding up copies of the Koran demonstrated at squares in the capital Tripoli, the eastern city of Benghazi and in Sabha in the southern desert.
In Tripoli's Algeria Square, Islamists burned copies of the "Green Book," Gaddafi's eccentric handbook on politics, economics and everyday life, to underline that the Koran should be the country's main source of legislation.
By contrast, a group of moderates who have occupied the square for more than a month chanted: "We want a civil state."
Islamist demonstrators encompassed members of the conservative Muslim Brotherhood and harder-line Salafis, who both back strict versions of Islam, and relative moderates who prefer a civil state simply inspired by sharia.
The protests offered a glimpse into Libya's political future in which Islamist and secularist parties are expected to vie for seats of a national assembly scheduled to be elected in June to draft a constitution for the North African country.

I did the peel after the Doctor recommended that it would help with sun, brown spots and fine wrinkling. Now I have more wrinkles! and uneven texture!Back in late September I had a 50% TCA peel done by a dermatologist. There were complications, slow healing, nerve damage, scarring etc. For the most part all has been resolved/being resolved except I now have wrinkles on my chin where I had none prior to the peel. Seriously, I am 34 and my chin looks like a 70 y/o smokers. It is horrible and I am embarrassed and disgusted. Is there anything that can be done?
Wrinkle Problems After 50% TCA Peel
I did the peel after the Doctor recommended that...
I don't think the doctor took my medical history seriously, therefore causing problems with healing and now a whole host of other problems.

Asb4me. I hope you are doing better now. Who was your bad doctor? Thanks

This is exactly what I am concerned about as well. I have fine lines around my lips and mouth and I attribute this to the years I was on Retin-A and it all came forward and my chin would peel like crazy while the rest of my face peeled mildly. Now I am considering a peel for the area around my mouth, but I certainly don't want it to get anyworse. I'm not sure how long ago your post was, but has the situation improved any since? And have you spoken with anyone who has had a the obaji blue peel?
- Reply
Please help. Has this improved for you. I'm devastated and have the same issue. I never had wrinkles before and now I do all around my mouth. People say they can't see but I can for sure. I've been so depressed please help.
- Reply
I believe that you have not done the proper aftercare at home; this is why it caused the wrinkle, chemical peels are not for every type of skin. Since quemical peel is too strong for you I suggest that you get couple of microdermabrations session for that area only to help repair the wrinkle but just as the quemical peel the home aftercare is very important. Sun UV and windburn can cause to bring back the wrinkle even faster and deeper.

How To Find Comfortable Shoes: Guide to Shoe Comfort
Getting a Comfortable Fit
How do you get a comfortable fit with your formal shoe? Here's an easy to use guide to finding the perfect shoe fit, no matter if you're wearing peep-toe, high heel, or a low wedge, make sure you're comfortable so you can keep those gorgeous shoes on longer!
Stop by a local shoe store to have your feet measured and test out a few sizes of shoes so you're sure to order the right size. Make sure to measure in the afternoon or towards the end of the day since feet tend to swell throughout the day.
A couple of weeks before the wedding, start wearing your shoes inside the house every day for an hour or two at a time to break them in. If you'll be wearing stockings at the wedding make sure you wear them during these trial runs as well. Not only will it imitate how the shoes will feel on your big day, it will keep the shoes clean as well.
Designer Quality
If comfort is as important as style, consider investing in a top designer brand. You'll pay more for the fine leather and top-notch fabric but the quality construction often means greater comfort.
Consider Shoe Pads
A well-placed shoe pad can help prevent slipping, shifting, rubbing and chafing so that you can keep dancing well into the night. In certain situations pads can even make your feet "look" better! Use this guide to identify common problems and get a fast, effective fix.
Troubleshooting Existing Uncomfortable Shoes
Open-toe shoes can allow toes to spill out and crowd.
A round shoe pad such as the Foot Petals Tip Toes placed under the ball of the foot or a full shoe pad like Foot Petals Killer Kushionz helps prevent toes from hanging over the foot bed. It's more comfortable and much more attractive.
In pumps and other shoes with a closed, cupped back your heel can slip each time you lift your foot to walk.
A rectangular shoe pad such as the Foot Petals Heavenly Heelz prevents feet from slipping.
High heels can cause toes to crowd into the toe box.
A round shoe pad such as the Foot Petals Tip Toes placed under the ball of the foot or a full shoe pad like the Foot Petals Killer Kushionz helps prevent toes from sliding too far forward.Tip: For Tip Toes, leave the adhesive backing on the pad when you place it in the shoe. As the day wears on and your feet swell you can easily remove the pad.
Slingbacks can slide off the back of your heel.
A thin strip shoe pad such as the Foot Petals Strappy Strips placed on the inside of the slingback will provide extra grip and cushioning so the strappy slingback stays put. Tip: Wig tape works here too!
No arch or heel support.
Foot Petals Killer Kushionz cushion your insole for total comfort and stability. They also prevent feet from slipping forward so there's no scrunching or bunching.
Mules and slides can chafe the top of the foot.
A rectangular shoe pad such as the Foot Petals Heavenly Heelz can be placed on the inside top of the shoe to prevent rubbing and chafing.

Some years back, The Onion, a satirical publication, announced in a headline, "Miracle of Birth Occurs for 83 Billionth Time." At our older son's Bar Mitzvah, my husband used this article to explain that we perhaps take for granted the milestones our children reach. We forget that each and every birth, and each and every event in that child's life, is unique and special. Each bris, each first communion, each first tooth, each first day of kindergarten are all miraculous. We've somehow lost our wonder in the ordinariness of life. And yet, how much greater is the miracle when it is a child who has been ill, or who has a disability, or whom for whatever reason there was doubt that he or she would reach a particular milestone?

For many parents and students August means that thoughts turn to back-to-school sales on clothes and school supplies. While those items are on the minds of parents of students with special needs, they often have much weightier things on their minds; how to make this school year experience significantly better and different than last year. At the annual review IEP at the end of last school year, schools often make promises that the issues from last year or the unmet goals will be accomplished, or progress will be made, next (school) year. Well it is time to make good on those promises and representations, as this year IS next year. Those promises need to have more meaning than the average New Year's resolution. Here are my thoughts on some things to consider, as an attorney who practices in the area of special education law, at the start of this new school year:

Humor is usually an area of the blog that I leave to my wife's column High Stakes Jesting, but the following just came across my desk and it struck me as quite funny and wanted to share it. Under the heading of "Anger Management" a local school district just emailed the following lesson overview, which is excerpted below:
" Here is an example of how you might practice these steps with your child at home: You hear a shriek from the family room. You find your child near tears because Henry, the family dog, just ran through your child's board game. You say, "Remember to stop and think. Ask yourself how your body feels. I can tell that you're angry. Calm down. Remember what you said to yourself when you needed to calm down the other day? Try saying those things again. Now that you're calm, let's go through the problem-solving steps you learned to see if we can keep Henry from messing up your game the next time." ... At-home activity idea: Write each of the calming-down methods on a small piece of paper. Fold each piece and place all in a container. Present your child with a pretend situation that may cause him to become angry (such as a sibling taking the last cookie). "
Most adults would find this lesson challenging and more than a little off-putting. I am thinking of using this paragraph above, however, as a script at the next IEP when my advocacy gets the special education director's nostrils flaring. "Now remember, that raising your voice at me did not help the last time we met and you got mad at me. You made really damaging admissions that we used against you at hearing and your attorney got mad at you too. When you went home that night how did that make your body feel." If this part of the script worked, I would go on to say "OK now that you are calm, you can readily see that no matter how much you scream and holler and bluster, this student is not literate at all and he/she is in high school. You see confession is not just good for the soul, your body feels better too." Next time, we will use a hypothetical like controlling your anger when "the teacher tells the truth when he/she has been expressely been told to lie." My body feels better just thinking about it.

It is cold and flu season. Before you give your child with special needs cough medicine consider the following. Children with special needs frequently do not metabolize medications, even over the counter products, the same as their typcial peers, as a result of underlying physical, neurologic, immune or metabolic conditions. A recent report as to the risks of cough and cold medicines for younger children should especially be heeded for parents of children with special needs even if they are chronologically older per the packaging directions. These risks are in addtion to the body of research that some children with special needs are at heightened risk from serotonin inhibitors or SSRIs.
During years 2004-2005 an estimated 1,519 infants under the age of two were treated in U.S. emergency rooms for ailments related to bad side effects of cold and cough medicines. Even scarier, in 2005 three infants aged six months or younger died and the underlying cause of death was found to be cold and cough medicines. As a result of these alarming statistics the Food and Drug Administration has issued an advisory to parents to never give cold and cough medicines to children under the age of two, unless instructed to do so by a doctor. As explained in the New York Times the FDA will convene a panel on October 18 to determine if more warnings are necessary. The medications currently tell parents not to give to children under the age of two unless recommended by a doctor, but too many parents are failing to heed this warning and more drastic measures may need to be taken.

The world continues to get smaller thanks to technology and the special education world is no exception. From specialists using video conferencing to touch base with clients to students using technology to express themselves, the possibilities seem to be endless.
Recently in Washington, a school district used technology to discuss a student with selective mutism. The insight and knowledge that school personnel was able to attain would not have been possible without the technological advances. Students can also get evaluated and even receive therapy virtually. The growing access to early diagnoses and intervention will help students all over the county.
These advances can also provide access to education for students who are unable to attend school due to health issues or other reasons. One of the most widely used practices of videoconferencing for special needs students is connecting students from remote locations to the classroom.

I am presenting tomorrow at a conference on Dravet's syndrome which is a rare type of seizure disorder. Here is an excellent resource on this rare disorder. If your child has Dravet's it is important that you work to educate the school, especially the nurse and the SLP, since schools are often slow to accept new information even on more well-known disorders such as autism or similar conditions.

New research conducted by the California Department of Health suggests a link between autism and in utero exposure to endosulfan and dicofol, organochlorine pesticides that are banned in many countries, but still used in the United States. The study, published by Environmental Health Perspectives, is the first to explore the connection between maternal residential exposure to organochlorine pesticides at different concentrations during key periods of gestation and risk of ASD (autism spectrum disorder) in children. ASD risk increased with poundage of organochlorine applied and decreased with distance from field sites. The study concludes that risk for ASD was consistently associated with residential proximity to organochlorine pesticide applications during critical periods of embryonic development. The study also states that the possibility of a connection requires further study.
Many pesticides, rodenticides and other toxins applied in public spaces operate on the nervous system of the targeted pest. The application tends to be around base boards/floors where younger children spend much more time than adults or older children making them more vulnerable to the effects of these neurotoxins Over time these chemicals can have particularly negative effects for students with special needs who often have immune system deficits or nervous systems that have already been injured in some way. The effects of neurotoxins in schools, in my opinion, is factor that is rarely considered when IEP teams convene to consider behavioral or learning issues. Only the most obvious situations, like overgrowth of toxic molds, are ever even considered as a problem typically because the effects are widespread and not subtle.
According to Science Week pesticide poisoning is a commonly under diagnosed illness in the U.S. and can resemble acute upper respiratory tract illness, conjunctivitis, and gastrointestinal illness. Studies have also shown a 50-70% increased risk for Parkinson's Disease with exposure to herbicides, insecticides, and pesticides. Exposure to chemicals, including pesticides can cause multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS), a disorder which is triggered by exposure to chemicals in the environment. Use of chemicals in schools can prevent children who have MCS from having access to a mainstream education. For example, two children in Maryland were forced to attend a home school program when their school was being reroofed and sprayed with pesticide.
(case law 18 IDELR 1041).

When it comes to websites like myspace there is an innate fear that parents often succumb to without exploring the possible benefits. While there are dangers, there are also benefits, discussed below, which are too often overlooked. Many children with disabilities are socially isolated and have little opportunity to express thoughts, participate in meaningful communication with peers, or otherwise fit in with mainstream society.
This is a site that may allow these teens to do just that. Myspace is a free website that allows people to set up a profile including pictures, personal information, music, and videos, among other things. Once a profile is set up the user can share pictures and messages with anyone else who has a profile and is approved as a friend. Profiles can be set to private which prevents anyone who is not approved from viewing. Myspace is easy to use and very popular with both children and teens. The site was developed for teens and adults ages 14 and older, but it is easy for children of all ages to join. A child is best protected by a parent who educates themselves, and their children, about the risks and benefits of myspace.

It gets three stars because I had to rework the recipe. Taking a cue from other readers who desired more flavor in this recipe, I added 2 tsp light soy sauce, 1/8 tsp red pepper flakes and 1/2 tsp ground coriander to the dressing. I made it early in the day to allow the ingredients time to blend and I also made certain to sprinkle with additional lime juice just prior to serving. It gave it the right amount of punch without overwhelming the other ingredients.

I thought this was delicious. I did double the dressing and added extra onion and lots of extra cilantro, which I really like. For the rice I used leftover Garlicky Brown Rice, also a CL recipe, which I happened to have left over from the previous night. With these modifications what resulted was very tasty and fresh.

Very bland. Very dry. Very disappointing.
laebrown Posted: 05/17/10
Not really a fan of this one. Something about the sauce - it needs something, just a certain je ne sais quoi. I added some soy sauce as suggested and that seemed to help...it just seems a little bland to me. I wish I knew how to improve it, but this one just wasn't my bag.
KellyG73 Posted: 05/13/09
I thought this was a tasty fresh recipe. I use extra dressing and added both soy sauce and fresh ginger. For additional crunch, I added bean sprouts.
AndreaBW Posted: 05/18/10
I love this dish especially for potlucks. I can prep it ahead, and it requires no attention when I get there, so I'm not cluttering up somebody's kitchen trying to reheat something or fussing over my dish making sure the components are set up right. At the last meeting, two people asked me for the recipe, and one pointed out what I've always liked about this dish: that it's also great to take along as lunch for work, and you get a hit of veggies, grains and protein all in one delicious bowl. The only way this dish could improve by my estimation would be if I could get my kids on board with it.
ESmith6 Posted: 08/19/10
This was really tasty with a few small changes. First, I switched the quantities of the canola oil and the sesame oil. Much more flavor that way. Second, I added a tsp. of sesame seeds and a tsp. of black sesame seeds. Third, I added about a tbsp. of chili paste (sambal olek). The change and additions made it very flavorful. It was also very tasty the next day.
hillravens Posted: 02/12/11
Good filling alternative to traditional chicken and salad recipes. Recommend using half the garlic and using a soy-mirin sauce for added light flavor. B
MsLala Posted: 04/06/11
Came across this recipe yesterday and made it for dinner last night - got rave reviews! I used Tahini instead of sesame oil and a sweet onion that I diced and caramelized instead of green onions, because that's what I had. Brought some leftovers in for lunch today, and it is just a good cold as it is hot. Definitely saving this recipe to be made again!!
ebekwel Posted: 05/31/11
We thought this was a great recipe. My husband and four-year-old daughter enjoyed it as much as I did. We did all agree that the dressing needed a little something extra to give the dish a kick of flavor. I added about 2 Tbsp of rice vinegar and it did the trick. It was delicious!
casey45632 Posted: 04/29/12
This was delicious and light. I used meat from a rotisserie chicken, instant rice, and pre-cut match-stick carrots and it was very easy.
kallen18 Posted: 05/17/12
Easy to prepare but I felt it was lacking in flavor somewhere. There is potential to be found though.
Clobberella422 Posted: 06/18/12
I made a few changes to the dressing in order to head off the blandness that some reviewers complained about, and it worked out great. First, I used extra virgin olive oil instead of canola and added an extra tbsp of the sesame oil. Then I added a tbsp of soy sauce, 2 tbsp chile garlic paste and 1/2 tbsp minced ginger. I also used a couple extra tbsp of the chopped cilantro. It was very good and flavorful. I can imagine adding all kinds of different veggies to this, like cucumber, red bell pepper, snow peas, asparagus, even avocado.
Joann138 Posted: 04/30/14
Nice simple dinner. I took earlier suggestions and tweaked dressing with a little more sesame seed oil, olive oil rather than canola, sweet chili garlic sauce and soy sauce. I loaded the salad with red peppers, carrots, red onion (our preference), cucumber, cilantro, sweet corn (steamed and cut whole kernels-just because the grocery had fresh). I forgot to add the peanuts but it wasn't missed. Plenty left over for lunch tomorrow.
daneanp Posted: 05/20/14
This was a big hit with the family and it went together easily, so it will go on our regular rotation list. I doubt I'd make it for guests or anything. I forgot the limes at the store so had to sub some season rice wine vinegar instead. I used peanut oil and sesame oil and added some chili sauce and minced ginger for a little zip. It would be easy to play around with the veggies - bean sprouts, pea pods, steamed broccoli, baby bokchoy - the possibilities are endless.

Going into utter meltdown, she walks out of her London office, gets on a train, and ends up in the middle of nowhere. Asking for directions at a big, beautiful house, she's mistaken for an interviewee and finds herself being offered a job as housekeeper. Her employers have no idea they've hired a lawyer, and Samantha has no idea how to work the oven. She can't sew on a button, bake a potato, or get the #@%# ironing board to open. How she takes a deep breath and begins to cope, and finds love is a story as delicious as the bread she learns to bake.
But will her old life ever catch up with her? And if it does...will she want it back?
©2005 Sophie Kinsella; (P)2005 Books on Tape
"Kinsella's genuine charm and sweet wit may continue to win her fans." (Publishers Weekly)
"a dream.."
I could really relate with this character and to step away from the rat race is something that makes me long for at times. I not only really liked this book but could imagine myself in her shoes. This book was wonderfully written and well narrated. Other reviewers are correct in that it's probably better on audiobook because you get the English accent.
"Laugh out loud funny!!!"
I love Sophie Kinsella audio books.. They MUST be audio because part of the fun effect is having the book narrated by a Brit... I have listened to almost ALL of her books and experienced great enjoyment!!! I had truckers on the freeway honk their air horns at me because they could see I was alone in my vehicle but hysterically laughing! I'm sure they were quite curious as to my behavior.
"Super entertaining"
I loved this book. I have listened to it twice now. It makes me laugh often. The story is witty and the narrator tells it very well. I will probably listen to it again, when I need to laugh!
"laugh out loud funny"
I thought that this would be fun to listen to at work. I was right! I really enjoyed this listen and couldn't put it down! I even looked for an excuse to go to the grocery store without my husband so that I could continue to listening. It was light-hearted and funny which was exactly what I was looking for. I would definitely recommend this book to others looking for a something funny, with a cute story.
"A wild ride!"
I absolutely adore Sophie Kinsella. The story was not at all believable, but oh so much FUN and really different! It was purely silly and zany, and it made me so uncomfortable all at the same time. I thought the narrator was a little "off" with some of the male characters' voices, but I got used to it.
"A lighthearted listen"
I?ve listened to all of Sophie Kinsella?s books and found them to be funny and easy to listen to. This latest book did not disappoint me although I thought the story line was a bit far fetched, but it was entertaining all the same. If you liked her other books, you?ll like this one, too.
I love all genres of books. However, when I listen to audio books as I clean, garden, drive they are better with a lot of heat!
""A Light Hearted Listen"
This the first Sophie Kinsella book I listened to and found it to be funny and easy to listen to. This book did not disappoint me although I thought the story line was a bit far fetched, but it was entertaining all the same. The book would have scored 5 stars if the loves scenes were a bit more descriptive. I hate it when lots of sexual attraction is described between a couple. Then when the couple actually get together the scene is written off "with they kissed and then afterward" descriptions. Roslyn Landor was outstanding as the reader and really made the story come to life.
This was a delightful "read". The story of a stressed-out lawyer, stripped of her job and accidentally ending up in the unlikely position of a housekeeper for a nouveau riche couple at a country estate, was very entertaining. I was sorry when it ended. The narrator was superb. It was a great yarn for all who fantasize about a simpler life.
"Rosalyn Landor is a wow!"
It was a fun book to read, and an even more enjoyable in the audio version because of the talented interpretation of the characters by Rosalyn Landor. Sophie Kinsella is one of the few writers out there that appeals to several generations. My daughter, mother, and I have all read and enjoyed this engaging, witty author.
"Loved it!"
I loved this book. It was my favorite of all of Sophie Kinsella's books.

Discover Adionomy, Your Online Radio Advertising Campaign, Fast, Easy and Custom-Made!
Yvonne Marianne Elliman is an American singer. She may be best known for originating the role of Mary Magdalene in the Andrew Lloyd Webber rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar. Her biggest success came in 1977 with her #1 hit from the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack, "If I Can't Have You" which was also written by the Bee Gees. The huge success of the latter song has resulted in Elliman being remembered as a disco artist, though this style of music was an exception to the medium-tempo ballads that she specialized in, and which comprised the bulk of her recordings.

Burn all of your bridges
just so that you can build them again
with thicker ropes.
Hurt all the people you love
and then commit every felony to win them back.
Drown yourself in bleach until not even Heaven's light
can compare to how bright you can burn.
Turn yourself inside out
and paint your organs the color of what you see
in your dreams.
This is the art of
living with a ticking heart — a grenade you
throw through windows to make a
point that language
has no room for.
This is how I destroyed you. And this, is how
I kept you alive.
Dig yourself a ditch, six
feet deep, and bury everything that you've ever
said, everything that you've never
meant, and everything that has
burned you and left you with nothing
but ash.
There among us in infinity and solitude,
life sparked and blazed in warm corners
and in the brace of other-worldly lands.
It is there I hold memories of life and the silent frenzy.
They resonate in my body and happily play.
On this land, no King, Queen or Emperor
No Lord or pilgrim.
The sky and sea do not talk back
They meet in chaos and beauty
One melting its cold hypnotic hues
into that vast sea world with its erratic expression.
We stand and watch, I held you there on the beach,
clutching each other, as we formed our place.
The cosmic wind stampeding across the sea rushing around us.
I felt our feet rooting to that ground
As it could only whirl in orbit as we glow our presence in this world
I fantasized it took us and consumed us in its place,
Lost from past and time. I know there is that place.
I have seen a hundred autumn trees
raised from the soil— great and ancient
weightless rising to the sky
to move in droves around the world—
roots hung limp
save for their slow tendril
searching through the blue
these great trees were beautiful
but for their wilting in the clouds
and their rubble of soil
breaking, as it fell,
the image of the night's half moon
in a distant lake.
Absent now some three years
I walk the mass of holes you left,
as if a war had passed, and think—
happiness seems a silly wilting thing
and nothing like the lasting ground—
I love.
When I say,
"And at night
I watched the storm— alone"
do you see
the sky erupt
in sheets of rain,
fingers of lightning
moving in the clouds
like a chill across the spine of the world?

I Could Watch This Showany day, just not everyday, all day, love it when there are marathons.
Its funny, I used to joke about living in the twilight zone. And it would be funny, and others would agree with me that yeah, when they thought of my life and things going on with me, it was like the twilight zone.
Now, I really feel like it sometimes, it doesnt feel like its a joke anymore, and those that used to joke with me about it, stopped joking with me. They just look at me and say, life is crazy.
If they new more than what I let them know, they would look at me like there was something wrong with me. I already went from being the clown to being a skitzo in their eyes. How would it be if they knew all that there is to know. At least they do come around me still. As long as I don't try to talk about the things that worry me, or get my mind rolling, I'm in good standing with my friends and family.

Do Syrian rebels have U.S. stingers
Russia's top military officer, general staff chief Nikolai Makarov, said Russia's military had learned that rebel forces "have portable missile launchers of various states, including American-made Stingers." Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said he had no knowledge of the United States supplying Stinger missiles to Syrian rebel forces, after Moscow said the rebels had acquired the U.S.-made surface-to-air missiles.

Perfect Family Time
We had a wonderful time at Mermaid's Pearl! The decor and amenities (towels, dishes, basic food necessities, etc) made it feel like a "home away from home". It reminded us of a couple of family members' homes, which was a nice nostalgic moment for all. The backyard was perfect for evening music and family time. We were excited about the location-just a few blocks from the seawall!! We truly enjoyed our stay and will return for future family adventures. An added bonus to this stay was the lovely property manager. She went above and beyond to help return an item we had left behind-Thank you Wendy!!
Tranquil Paradise
WOW !! This incredibly peaceful home was so hard to dart with. We could have easily stayed another week. The well kept landscaping set a tropical ambiance right off the bat. The home was nestled in a quite neighborhood however, it was within walking distance to shops, the beach and one of the best restaurant in Galveston. The home really hit all five senses of relaxation. Which is why we came to get away from the city life. Inside is a scene from an HGTV home, updated that has any homeowner in awe over the craftsmanship. Extremely clean inside. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. The kitchen was immaculate and the view out to the landscaping was nice. The backyard has a table where we enjoyed the provided coffee, and watched birds fly in and out of the landscaped gardens. Overall experience was nothing but greatness. We can't wait to come back and visit this blissful home for our next vacation.

New details on Pokemon X and Y expected next week. You better believe we'll catch 'em all
Matthew Diener
Pokemon X / Pokemon Y
Game Freak
Adventure, RPG
Although the October release of
Pokemon X and Y
for the 3DS is still months away, a trickle of news has already given fans an idea of what to expect from the games.
That news trickle may turn into a torrent next week, however, as
reports that the weekly Pokemon Smash broadcast will feature Game Freak director Junichi Masuda who's scheduled to reveal more information about the games.
In fact, the May 19 episode is already being hyped as an
X and Y
special so there's a good chance plenty of details will be revealed.
But why wait?
Details on
X and Y
may come earlier than that, however, as
Nintendo Life
reports that the weekly issue of CoroCoro Comics - which has a long history of leaking
news - may be in on the Pokemon Smash reveal.
If this is true, details may start leaking as early as midweek. Perhaps one of our 10 suggested new Pokemon will make their way into the official roster?
We're not really holding our breath for that one, but we'll be sure to keep you updated with news on
Pokemon X and Y
as it becomes available.

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) – The courts have cleared the way for a 15-year-old charged with his stepbrother's murder to possibly be tried as an adult.
Since June, Joshua Young has been at the Jefferson County Youth Corrections center, but he may soon have his time in an adult courtroom. That's exactly the news Trey Zwicker's family says they were hoping to hear.
"I miss his smile," said Trey's stepmother Teri Zwicker. "He was a good big brother. I just miss him."
It's been five months since 14-year-old Trey Zwicker was found dead in a ditch behind Liberty High School.
Even though some time has passed, it doesn't get any easier for his stepmother. "One day you just hope that he comes walking through the door, but you know he's not," said Zwicker. "He's really gone and you can't bring him back."
But Zwicker says a little hope came Wednesday morning when a judge ruled to move this case to Circuit Court.
"You choose to make a decision that no one should ever do, but you want to do something that bad, you should be tried as an adult," said Zwicker.
Zwicker was in court during the ruling in the same room with 15-year-old Joshua Young, Trey's stepbrother, and the boy police say beat Trey to death.
"It's anger, sadness, that you are sitting there staring at the person who did this to Trey and you never get to see Trey again," said Zwicker.
While Zwicker says justice may be a long way off, she hopes Young gets the time she says he deserves. "I would like for him to have to spend the rest of his life in jail," said Zwicker. "He gave us a sentence when he took Trey that we will have to carry with us for the rest of ours, so he should spend the rest of his."
Young was arrested in June outside Birmingham, Alabama following an unrelated arrest with his father, Joshua Gouker. Gouker remains at Louisville Metro Corrections after he was mistakenly released from jail in Alabama.

First Aid & Emergencies
Heat-Related Illnesses - Topic Overview
Other things that may increase your risk of a heat-related illness include:
- Age. Babies do not lose heat quickly and they do not sweat effectively. Older adults do not sweat easily and usually have other health conditions that affect their ability to lose heat.
- Obesity. People who are overweight have decreased blood flow to the skin, hold heat in because of the insulating layer of fat tissue, and have a greater body mass to cool.
- Heat waves. People who live in cities are especially vulnerable to illness during a heat wave because heat is trapped by tall buildings and air pollutants, especially if there is a high level of humidity.
- Chronic diseases, such as diabetes, heart failure, and cancer. These conditions change the way the body gets rid of heat.
- Travel to wilderness areas or foreign countries with high outdoor temperatures and humidity. When you go to a different climate, your body must get used to the differences (acclimate) to keep your body temperature in a normal range.
Most heat-related illnesses can be prevented by keeping the body cool and by avoiding dehydration in hot environments. Home treatment is usually all that is needed to treat mild heat-related illnesses. Heat exhaustion and heatstroke need immediate medical treatment.
Check your symptoms to decide if and when you should see a doctor.

Patient Comments: Vaginal Yeast Infection - OTC Medications
What OTC medications have you found effective in treating a vaginal yeast infection?
Comment from: gladys, 35-44 Female (Patient) Published: May 09
I am tired of treating this STD called candidiasis for the past 10 years. I have visited the hospital, taken drugs like fluconazole, Gyno-Daktarin pessaries, doxycycline, Flagyl, Funbact-A, Amoxil, clotrimazole, etc., but to no avail. I had to throw all my underwear and get new ones and strictly keep to hygiene, but no way. I was later advice by my doctor that this type of candidiasis is very difficult to treat, i should go and get a natural yoghurt that has not been processed and douche with it, but it has not been easy for me to get the yoghurt. I am tired of this candidiasis.

I have a strange problem witha new install of Ubuntu.
Our ip range is 192.168.0.0/23
with most servers, switches, printers, WAPs on the 192.168.0 and the clients start at 192.168.1.1 but the default gateway and proxy is 192.168.1.254.
Now for some reason the new server just wont connect with that IP no ping no nothing. It will ping all the local servers on the 0.0 range and the random clients on the 1.0 range but just not 192.168.1.254.
The default gateway is just a stock smoothie at the moment so nothing exotic there and I have already discounted it being a subnet mask problem by pinging a few clients.
So is there some reason it might think that 192.168.1.254 is an invalid ip for that network or something?

Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Airline pilots spend nearly all their time monitoring automated cockpit systems rather than "hand-flying" planes, but their brains aren't wired to continually pay close attention to instruments that rarely fail or show discrepancies.
As a result, pilots may see but not register signs of trouble, a problem that is showing up repeatedly in accidents and may have been a factor in the recent crash landing of a South Korean airliner in San Francisco, industry and government experts say.
Teaching pilots how to effectively monitor instruments has become as important as teaching them basic "stick-and-rudder" flying skills, a panel of experts told an annual safety conference of the Air Line Pilots Association, the world's largest pilots union, on Wednesday.
"The human brain just isn't very well designed to monitor for an event that very rarely happens," said Key Dismukes, a former top NASA human factors scientist.
While people "do very well" at actively controlling a plane, "we're not well designed to monitor for a little alphanumeric (a combination of alphabet letters and numbers) on the panel even if that alphanumeric tells us something important," he said. "We can't just sit there and stare at the instruments."
The "sheer volume of monitoring required even on the most routine flights and the diversity" of systems that must be monitored has increased, he said.
Concern about the problem is great enough that government, union and industry safety officials formed a working group last fall to come up with a blueprint for teaching pilots techniques for how to overcome the brain's natural tendency to sometimes see but disregard important information. For example, if pilots see airspeed indicators showing appropriate speeds landing after landing, their brains may filter out an unexpected low or high speed, they said.
"The human brain filters out information it considers unchanging," said Helena Reidemar, an airline pilot and the pilots union's director of human factors.
Asiana Flight 214 crashed short of a runway at San Francisco International Airport on July 6 after a nearly 11-hour flight from Seoul, South Korea. Of the 307 people on board, three have died and dozens of others were injured. One of the issues that have emerged in the National Transportation Safety Board's investigation of the accident is whether the pilots, who were supposed to be watching airspeed indicators, were aware the plane was traveling at speeds so dangerously slow that it was at risk of losing lift and stalling.
The flight's pilots set a target airspeed of 137 knots for crossing the runway's threshold. The plane reached speeds as low as 103 knots just before its landing gear and then its tail collided with a rocky seawall at the end of the runway, shearing off the tail, dumping three flight attendants onto the tarmac and sending the rest of the plane spinning and sliding.
Dismukes cautioned that it's too soon to reach conclusions about whether the three Asiana pilots who were in the Boeing 777's highly-automated cockpit were closely monitoring the plane's airspeed, "but what was going on there in terms of monitoring systems obviously is going to be a crucial issue."
Robert Sumwalt, an NTSB board member, said: "The question is, did the pilots recognize they were slow? And if not, why not?"
The board's investigation hasn't turned up any mechanical or computer problems with the plane, NTSB chairman Deborah Hersman said at briefing last week.
The board has repeatedly investigated accidents in which pilots' failure to closely monitor key systems contributed to the crash, Sumwalt said.
In 2007, after an investigation of a fatal business jet accident in Pueblo, Colo., the board recommended that the Federal Aviation Administration require that pilot training programs be modified to contain segments that teach and emphasize monitoring skills and how to manage multiple tasks, Sumwalt said. Since then, the board has twice repeated the recommendation in response to other accidents, he said.
The FAA, however, hasn't required airlines to change their training programs, Sumwalt said. Instead, the agency suggested airlines revise their procedures to "promote effective monitoring" if pilots are found to be inconsistent in their monitoring techniques, he said.
The board doesn't believe the advice goes far enough, and has categorized FAA's response as "unsatisfactory," Sumwalt said.
One of the accidents that led NTSB to renew its recommendation was the February 2009 crash of a regional airliner near Buffalo, N.Y. In that case, the two Colgan Air pilots weren't closely monitoring the Bombardier Q-400's airspeed and so failed to notice that the plane's speed had rapidly dropped about 50 knots, Sumwalt said. The startled captain responded incorrectly to an automated warning of an impending stall, sending the plane plunging into a house below. Fifty people, including a man on the ground, were killed.

State laws on breastfeeding in public vary, but MOST states have a law that says that wherever a mother can be with her baby, she can breastfeed. While private home owners and certain businesses (not national chains!) can have their own private policies, public places and government-owned buildings are always available.
But up until the passing of a new law, Tennessee toddlers were treated like second-class citizens, because you see ... this is the law until July 1:
68-58-101. Right to breastfeed in any location. — A mother has a right to breastfeed her child who is twelve (12) months of age or younger in any location, public or private, where the mother and child are otherwise authorized to be present.
Toddlers weren't allowed to eat with other people in public ... well, not breastfeed, anyway. The law revision is better, but still not good enough.
On July 1, the age restriction removal goes into effect, thanks to Governor Bill Haslam. But what remains is wondering why it would have been there in the first place, not respecting the AAP's beliefs that nursing should go until a minimum of a year (not only UNTIL), and the LLL, Surgeon General, CDC, and WHO's support of nursing until TWO years old as a minimum. In no situation should breastfeeding your own baby be illegal.
One of the problems even with the bill's revision, and the bill in many states, is a lot of the general public has an issue with women nursing in public. And the most businesses, security guards, or employees get when they go out of their way to make a breastfeeding mom feel like she is doing something wrong is a verbal slap on the wrist telling them that the law says it's okay.
Obviously, despite being protected by law, there's more that needs to be done if we want women to REALLY feel comfortable nursing in public, whether they choose to use a cover or go into a back room or sit right at their table with their shirt lifted up. What good does a law do if it's never enforced and there's no punishment for breaking it?
Come ON. So I'm glad Tennessee stopped discriminating against people who nurse full term, but really, so many of these laws really just give a mom the right to not go to jail, but they don't help support nursing. We need to impose at least a fine or give people some reason to not completely and utterly ignore it entirely.
What do you think should change about the laws to help protect breastfeeding moms' rights?

This is going to make me really unpopular, but please tell me WHY mothers must breastfeed their toddlers in public? I am not saying that they shouldn't feed their children breastmilk. The two are different. But toddlers are well able to eat solid foods, and in fact, at that point, should be eating solids in addition to breastmilk. What is so horrible about pumping some breastmilk and bringing it along to feed? Put it in a cup and nobody is any wiser.
I think it's ridiculous that a government would make such a law, and I don't think that it should stand. But I don't see why it's such a massive problem, when a mother has other options.
I can't pump, don't respond to it. And why should I have to for YOUR comfort?
Oh and my toddler and preschooler get a lot more out of nursing than just sustinence.
@PonyChaser - you said it yourself. We have options. Breastfeeding our children is one of them. Why should I put breastmilk in a cup when my child can easily get it from the source? I don't pump now that I no longer work and I don't see why I should when I don't need to. I don't care if anyone else is 'wiser' to what I am doing.
When the other option is having an overtired one year old tearing at your shirt and screaming boobies, breastfeeding your toddler in public is very appealing. My one year olds weren't very good at drinking from a cup until around 18 months. I also found pumping very difficult after 9 months or so.
I got a few looks nursing my toddlers but never had anyone say anything to me. I think if you are brave enough to nurse a toddler in public most people don't want to mess with you, lol!
The same people who get so offended at nursing toddlers in public are the most likely the same ones who get so offended and irritated at toddlers throwing tantrums in public. Would you rather my child be screaming and crying or quietly nursing while they recover from whatever upset them?
I think any place of business that harasses a nursing mom ought to be publicly flogged. ;)
I get enough negative attention & hate from envious women as it is, and, unless it is an emergency do not plan to nurse my toddler publicly...unless nursing in one's car counts as public nursing, well then, look somewhere else.
My daughter is picky, only milk from the boob because it is the proper temperature. My breastfed toddler is visually much healthier than the unbreastfed toddlers whose faces tend to be inflammed due to teething. Breastfeeding a toddler really helps them through the big molars, and, somehow reduces the facial inflammation. Those chipmunk cheeks on a toddler always make me sad. In additon, nursing my toddler forces me to slow down and relax, something I don't normally do because as an ADD there is always something to do....so many projects so little time (it was very useful as a farmgirl).
I can also, safely say, that breastfeeding beyond 24 months really helps to keep mommy's weight down, also. Not that anyone in this society is concerned about being the most physically healty as possible, but JIC someone else is, I thought I'd throw that in there.
I work with Dr. Julie Ware who was the front runner in getting this bill passed. It isnt completly what she wanted but it's better. So go DR. JULIE!!
But in my personal opinion, there is no necessity for a toddler over the age 2 to be BF in public. At this age, the majority of what they eat is not breastmilk. My 2 year old is fine drinking out of a cup and eating food until we are home.
I think it's absolutely ridiculous that something that is COMPLETELY NATURAL to our species is being legislated in such a manner. I'm feeding my child. I can't stay home ALL THE TIME so you don't have to see a glimpse of less skin than you see on half the magazines at the news stand. Seriously?

the Army 2001). "Deployment" is defined as a troop movement to a land-based location outside the continental United States that does not have a permanent medical treatment facility (i.e., funded by the Defense Health Program). Deployment is the result of a Joint Chiefs of Staff/Unified Command deployment order and lasts for 30 or more consecutive days (U.S. Department of the Army 2001).
The role of U.S. military forces has changed and expanded. Increasingly, U.S. troops are deployed for operations other than war, including peacekeeping, humanitarian, and nation-building missions of varying scope and duration. (See Figure 1-1 for an illustration of potential conflicts and likelihood of occurrence.) Deployments differ in the degree and nature of tactical risks (i.e., risk due to the presence of an enemy or adversary). However, with or without tactical threats, there are risks of accident, disease, and illness inherent in deployment. Those might arise from contaminated local environments, from the intensive activities of the deployed forces, from exposure to hazards associated with mission tasks, from intentional exposures to pesticides and prophylactic agents, and from the rigors of exposure to climatic extremes.
In deployment situations, commanders must balance the effects of multiple risks. Effects can include casualties, impacts on civilians, damage to the environment, loss of equipment, and levels of public reaction against the value of the mission objectives. The Army's Field Manual 100-14 (U.S. Department of the Army 1998) outlines the principles, procedures, and responsibilities of applying an operational risk-management (ORM) process to conserve combat power and resources. The manual defines risk management as "the process of identifying, assessing, and controlling risks arising from operational factors and making decisions that balance risk costs with mission benefits. . . . It applies to all missions and environments across the wide range of Army operations." The ORM process is a cycle of (1) identifying hazards, (2) assessing the risk associated with those hazards, (3) developing controls and making risk decisions, (4) implementing the controls, and (5) supervising and evaluating the effectiveness of the controls. The process is depicted in Figure 1-2. The basic principles for implementing the process include the following:
Integrating risk management into mission planning, preparation, and execution. Leaders and staff continuously identify hazards and assess both accidental and tactical risks. They then develop and coordinate control measures. They determine the level of residual risk for accidental hazards in order to evaluate courses of action, and they integrate control

Mystic - Workers at the Mystic Seaport H.B. duPont Preservation Shipyard lifted an extension ladder into place on the starboard side after rolling the 19th century whaleship Charles W. Morgan the 50-feet from the side-track rails onto the main shiplift rails system as part of the two-step process to return the ship to the waters of the Mystic River Monday.
On Wednesday, the ship will be rolled the 200-feet onto the shiplift and be lowered partially into the water to begin the process of swelling the planking to render the hull watertight.
The Morgan, the last remaining wooden whaling ship and the oldest American commercial vessel still in existence as well as a National Historic Landmark, is slated to be re-launched on July 21 and embark on its 38th voyage, a tour of historic New England ports in the spring of 2014.
