I had to share it with everyone even though im sure most of you know. I was bored comparing NFCU rewards, Membership Rewards and Ultimate Rewards. (in that order) NFCU and amex were the same when it came to redeeming for merch. and gift cards and stuff points were a little inflated you know the usual. Then I went to chase's rewards site and was blown away. For instance it costs $2,199 to get a 15" mac book pro from apple. On chases UR site theyre asking 219,100 pts. thats a 1:1 ratio. thats awesome.. I think MR is asking for 297,000 for the same laptop without retina display. Im still a fan of AMEX cards but their Rewards are lacking. The only good thing going for them is their reputation and all the benefits that come with their cards. Anyone disagree?
Chase Ultimate Rewards is an excellent rewards program; points are always worth atleast a penny as you can simply choose a statement credit of a penny per point. It's a much more versatile rewards program than Amex's Membership Rewards, which has no general statment credit option and many redemption methods cost more than a point per penny of worth. The big thing MR has over UR is number of transfer partners, though it could be argued that UR has better transfer partners.
In terms of merch/gift cards, UR is definitely better than MR. Personally I don't use merchandise and gift cards to measure programs like MR and UR. The reason is you basically get 1% value. If that is what you want, you basically should go get a cash back card. You can get more than 1% with some cash back cards. And nothing is better than cash if you are looking to buy something. Why pay whatever prices whether or not they are inflated. I can get it cheaper with cash.
Worse case, you can use UR and MR points to discount your travel expenses via online reservation tool. With both you get a little more than 1% cash back with the rebates of points. I consider both programs about equal.
What makes MR and UR special is the ability to transfer to airlines miles or hotel points. With miles or points and using for right flights etc, you can get exceptional value. In terms of this I agree with previous poster. Amex has more partners, but Chase has arguably better partners. Amex has more specials going. In any case, overall I still think MR is a little better than UR at the moment but it is getting really close.

In the Sept. 5 IBJ, you can read about seven "clutch hitters"--Indy actors who, in my subjective view, can always be counted on to upgrade whatever shows they are in. The story is part of the IBJ A&E Season Preview.
All week here on the blog, I'll link you to video profiles of each of these actors in which they discuss how they got here, what it's like to be a working actor in Central Indiana, and what they'd like to be cast in some day.
Appearing in three major productions at the Indiana Repertory Theatre this season--including a one-woman show--Constance Macy is one such in-demand actress. But what she really wants to do is...Greek tragedy?

Hampshire Olympic Conference 2011 - Wednesday 22nd June (Archive)
The Rose Bowl, Southampton
As the excitement mounts in respect of the London Olympics, so do the questions as to how can we use this once in a lifetime opportunity to create a legacy within our schools.
The Hampshire 2012 Olympic Conference held on June 22nd at the Rose Bowl looked at this question and that of how can we use the Games to inspire young people and to impact on learning across the curriculum.
Steve Backley, OBE, Olympic Medalist and former World Record Holder, opened the event and gave an inspiring and illuminating talk on his career which set the tone for our 160 teachers and head teachers from across the curriculum and county to enjoy a valuable, practical and enjoyable day gaining lots of ideas to take back into their schools.Presentation - The Games of the XXXth Olympiad 3mb
Feedback from this year's conference was extremely positive – delegates told us it was 'the best Conference yet' and 'a great day full of inspiration and challenge'. Without exception the Conference met the particular needs of every delegate – and positively inspired them all to take action when back at their school. Indeed 97% rated it 'very good' and 'excellent' in respect to these questions.
Please use the links on the Conference resources page to view the wide range of presentations on offer to our delegates from schools and establishments across the county.

Body Oil, Low And High
As I try to nurture whatever tan I have left after a beach vacation that sadly ended two weeks ago, I've entered a phase of body care that I like to refer to as the oil zone. This special time of year typically commences in June when my skin is exposed to sunshine again, but seeing as how I expedited the process with an early Spring getaway, I've already bid adieu to my heavy winter moisturizers and embraced lighter, yet deeply penetrating oils that impart a slight sheen without a greasy residue (the better to showcase my fading bronze, of course). Now that I've really gotten into the ritual, I've discovered two new products that are worth slathering on:
With its square bottle and golden elixir, Lierac's Huile Sensorielle Aux 3 Fleurs reminds me of an old favorite from Caron, which is what compelled me to pick it up on a recent trip to Duane Reade. Equipped with jasmine, camellia, and gardenia essential oils that have been mixed with nourishing argan, hazelnut, sweet almond, and grapeseed varieties, it's incredibly emollient and aromatically pleasing, too, boasting a subtle, floral scent. Because the consistency isn't too liquid-y, it also serves as a great hair conditioner to treat dry ends—an added bonus.
For evening, I'm all about Tom Ford's just launched Neroli Portofino Body Oil, part of a brand extension of the designer's original Eau de Parfum of the same name. Warm citrus notes burst out of this silky Champagne-hued oil when it's rubbed on, leaving behind a soft supple finish and a delicate, enduring fragrance. It's hard not to enjoy pouring this potion out of its cubist teal bottle. One whiff, apparently, and some are even ready to strip down to nothing and have an oil fight.—Celia Ellenberg

Salome is a three-piece sludge band from Virginia currently signed to Profound Lore Records. On their 2008 self-titled debut they play sludge the way it's supposed to be played, pissed off and fucking slow. The vocals are done by Katherine "Kat" Katz (Agoraphobic Nosebleed) and she does a great job, she reminds me of a less guttural Runhild Gammelsaeter of Thorr's Hammer. If I had to compare their sound to another band I would say they are similar to Cough, but less sprawling. An interesting note to make is that like Pig Destroyer and Black Cobra, Salome proves that bass isn't always a necessity in the world of metal to be sufficiently heavy. My favorite track on the album is probably the opener "The Vivification of Ker" which plays off the same riff for most of the song, but also sprinkles in some stoner influence near the end. "Black Tides" and "White Tides" complement each other very well. The former has some post-rock vibes at the beginning (at least until the vocals kick in) and the latter is just crushing the whole way through, with some of the more up-tempo riffs on the entire album. The album closer "Onward Destroyer" can become a little tedious at times when there isn't much going on and it probably features the album's weakest moments, but it is still a fitting ending to the album. This is the first release I have ever heard by Salome, but they are definitely a band I plan on paying attention to in the future.

A Frictionless Model of Job Flows and the Beveridge Curve
AbstractThe Diamond-Mortensen-Pissarides search and matching model is the workhorse of labor macro, but it has difficulty in simultaneously matching the cyclical behavior of job loss and vacancies when taken to the data. By completely ignoring frictions in job creation and focusing instead on firm-level heterogeneity, one can match the cyclical behavior of job flows and vacancies relatively well. In particular, one can generate a Beveridge Curve which looks much like the real Beveridge Curve, and one can replicate the approximately equal contributions of job creation and destruction to the cycle. Focusing on heterogeneity rather than on hiring costs seems to give an improved picture of hiring activity over the cycle

Sundance Interview: Adam Scott of 'A.C.O.D'
On indie film, menswear, family crisis, the Catalina Wine Mixer and other funny stuff.
In Stu Zicherman's Sundance-debuting comedy "A.C.O.D." -- an acronym meaning "Adult Child of Divorce" -- Adam Scott plays a man whose little brother's engagement not only requires negotiations between his long-divorced, bitter parents (Catherine O'Hara and Richard Jenkins) but also reveals that as a youth, he was part of a seminal -- and best-selling -- study of divorce by Jane Lynch's slightly batty researcher 15 years ago. As Scott tries to get his whole family to the altar alive, he also has to come to grips with what his parent's divorce meant -- and means -- to him. Best-known for TV's "Party Down" and "Parks and Rec," "A.C.O.D." sees Scott in yet another ensemble alongside Clark Duke, Jessica Alba and others. Scott's in every scene of the film -- and gives those comedic talents a great chance to shine thanks to his character's set-ups. We spoke with Scott in Los Angeles.
MSN Movies: I mean this is the epitome of an independent film despite the pedigree of the people involved. First of all, I'm curious about how did you find this film? Did Mr. Zicherman find you or was it the reverse?
Adam Scott: Yeah, they found me. I guess my agent or my manager passed the script along to me and just spoke really highly of Stu. And I knew Ben (Karlin, co-writer) ... I didn't know him personally, but I certainly knew his work and from "Colbert" and "The Daily Show." And so I read the script thinking "This sounds really interesting," and it was just a terrific script, and of course a great role for me. I don't get to play the lead in a movie all that often, you know ... I just kind of jumped up at the chance, and as long as they were into me doing it I was certainly onboard.
I'm also wondering if it was tonally different from ... I mean a lot of independent scripts people send around are "road trip" or "he's coming back home finally." Was it strange to get essentially a pure comedy like this as an independent production?
Yeah, that's one of the things I liked about it is that it was just kind of an unadulterated -- no pun intended -- comedy. I hate to use the word mainstream, but I think that it's kind of, like you said, an unadorned comedy. And "Flirting With Disaster" is one of my favorite movies ever; I felt like it was sort of in that vein. It has some edge to it and stuff, but it's a family comedy. I mean it's certainly not appropriate for the whole family, but it's a comedy about family. So I felt like a lot of people could relate to it. I certainly did on some levels. And I felt like there's something for everyone in it. And some of my favorite independent movies are not for everyone; they have really stark things about them that make them sort of exclusive in one way or another, and I love a lot of those movies. I felt like this was not one of those with wider appeal, and I really liked that about it. I like when those kinds of movies work, big studio comedies that have "four-quadrant" appeal. When those do work, I love them just as long as they're good, you know?
BING: Adam Scott l 'Party Down'
I'm going to say that, at risk of sounding glib, the thing I thought about "A.C.O.D." was that it worked as a post-Apatow, non-Apatow film in terms of mixing that combination of slightly dirty mouths but warm and open feelings, this really had that blend while not being specifically from Mr. Apatow.
Yeah, I think that something Judd has done really well. It's been a fairly short amount of time since "The 40-Year-Old Virgin," and he's kind of brought this James L. Brooks sensibility back into the fold, and I think that the reverberations of that are really positive. I think that because the "The 40-Year-Old Virgin" -- and I guess it kind of started with "Anchorman" as well -- but before these comedy was a lot different in the movie theaters. And the fact that we have these comedies now, like certainly "Knocked Up" and "Funny People" continue the tradition of these sort of open-hearted comedies, which I grew up with watching "Broadcast News" and "Terms of Endearment" and those movies. I think it's great for movies that these kinds of movies are in movie theaters again, and I love it. And I agree that this sort of continues that tradition in a sense.
Right, because it's not like wacky body-swapping or you've got 24 hours to spend 36 million; it's just the observations of life, right?
Right. I enjoy that other side of comedy as well. I love the kind of absurdist side as well.
You are a regular attendee of the Catalina Wine Mixer.
Yeah, and you know that's one of my, while we were making "Step Brothers" every day I was like, "I can't believe I'm in this movie. This is a movie I would probably watch over, you know, 30 times in my lifetime. And I can't believe I'm in it." And that's exactly how I feel about that movie. I'm still so psyched that I'm in that movie. I can't believe it. And I think you know, there's a real sweetness to "Step Brothers," too. Like those two guys are really sweet. There's a real innocence and sweetness to it on the kind of the other side of it being completely absurd as well.
I also have to wonder, I mean, I understand the vagaries of film financing about as well as anyone else, which is to say not especially well until the audit. But I mean, I'm presuming the rest of the cast sort of came onboard after you already agreed to do the lead and therefore were able to garner a certain amount of financing. But as the cast accumulated and was demonstrated as ridiculously strong in every conceivable mention, how happy were you?
I was incredibly happy. I mean I knew a few of the people before, and the fact that they said yes was, first of all it was flattering because they knew I was in the movie and they still said yes, so that makes me feel good that my friends want to work with me again.
Or if they waited to hear Paul Rudd was going to sign up, at least they were quiet about it.
Right, exactly.
I mean that's a joke, but it has a note of truth to it.
Yeah. So yeah, I mean the fact that Amy and Jane and Richard. And I mean Catherine O'Hara is one of the best actresses around, and she's just wonderful. I can't believe I got to work with her, you know?
Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Clark is so awesome in the movie. Yeah, I mean it's a really bulletproof cast. And you know, they all make me seem way better than I am.
But it's also weird in that you're kind of for a lot of the more overtly comedic stuff, you're kind of Ginger Rogers to the Fred Astaire in that you have to do it backwards and in high heels and keep a straight face so that Mr. Jenkins or Mr. Duke or someone else can get the laugh. That's some tricky business, is it not?
Not when you're with them. I mean they're so funny that you just stay out of their way, you know? I mean you have all of these people sign up for a movie, and you know that they're going to do something really interesting and unexpected with it, you know, and hilarious. I mean every single person in the cast, they're all really inventive in the way they caught the ball and ran with it with each one of these roles. And that's why we were so lucky to get them.
On a lighter note...
I think they really make the movie, you know?
I mean it's very much an ensemble film with your great work as one of the keystones. But I mean it just sounded very interesting in that I think a lesser actor would look at the character and go, "Well I don't have any big laughs." What the character is doing is doing all of the set up so the crazier people around him can get those laughs, which I think is like in a weird way extraordinarily generous.
Oh, well that's nice of you to say, but I think that again like they all are so amazing. I mean even if I was, you know, a sound guy on the movie just to like spend that amount of time with each one of those people I would love to do it just 'cause they're all really special, lovely people.
I grew up in Canada so I have fond memories of Miss O'Hara from SCTV.
Oh my god. I mean SCTV is just a perfect television show.
On a lighter note, can we talk briefly about your amazing menswear in the film because it's great looking stuff? You look like a well-dressed stop animation badger in terms of like having this really complete, elegant, simple look. Was that a big part of the character?
(Laughs) You mean like...
Your costuming.
No, but a stop-motion animation badger from "The Fantastic Mr. Fox?"
Well not with the tie, but in terms of really well done earth tones and stuff with like an elegance and simplicity to it, if that makes any sense.
Yea,h you know, I feel like the character was a meticulous person and wanted the world to know even before he knows that there's going to be a disruption, and he gets a little defensive about it. He's someone that wants the world to know that he's got it all together, that he's got it all going, and he's in complete control. So I thought like the hair and the clothes and all should be very in place.
"My button-down shirt will always be buttoned-down."
Yeah, for sure. And nothing is out of place, and I'm aware and in charge of everything. At least that was what I was going for. And we had a great costume designer and hair person, makeup person. You know the crew was wonderful, and so they were all very, very helpful. And it was a really good experience.
When I was watching the film I was thinking about those great lines form the British poet Philip Larkin who said, "They f**k you up, your mum and dad. They may not mean to, but they do. They give you all the faults they had and add some extras, just for you."
I mean is essentially this film about somebody trying to work their way through that when they realize they have to stop working around it?
Yeah. I mean again for this character it's about control. And he thinks that he has it all together, and he's holding it together with you know. Then through the course of the film he realizes he's been holding it together with Scotch tape rather than cement. And this can of worms opens and he realizes that he hasn't been, he feels like he's been keeping this whole situation at an emotional arm's length. And then when it kind of stops being at arm's length he realizes there is a lot of pieces he needs to pick up in his own life and sort of do some housekeeping himself.
It's very kind of about the difference between damage control and damage repair.
Yeah, for sure. I think that's the shift in the movie, and I think the end is hopeful, you know? I think that he figures it out a bit.
One final thing, is it true that there is in fact a "Party Down" film in pre-production?
I mean not that I know of, and I feel like we would all know about it.
You would like to hope that you would, yes.
Yeah. I mean I think that there's always that possibility, but I think at one time it was a little stronger of a possibility. But you know, I also think that if it doesn't happen that's okay. I think that this sort of urge to turn television shows into movies isn't always a great instinct. I think that the form, the sitcom, the 22-minute form, or in our case like 27-minute form was the perfect form for "Party Down." And I feel like when you stretch that into 90 minutes it maybe would be great, but I think you're taking a risk of sort of maybe -- that's really challenging. It's a lot more difficult than what you just think like, a "Party Down" movie, great. But then you start applying it to the structure of...
...a film...
...an hour and half, two hour movie and it's a whole different thing, so I don't know. I mean I think, you know there are 20 episodes there that we're all really proud of, and maybe that's enough. I mean what "Arrested Development" did I think is great by going and just making more episodes. We know that that's a great form for the show. We don't know about it being a movie. So then going back and making more episodes I think is a perfect way to do it.
I always think of the whole square-cube law where you double something's size but triple its mass. When you make a 22-minute long TV show into an hour and a half long movie, what stuff are you tripling or expanding even more ...
... in terms of a challenge of making it well?
Yeah. I certainly never wrote anything on the show, but I would imagine that's a huge challenge. And I'm sure they could do it. I mean those guys are brilliant writers, but I think it's, I wouldn't want to do anything to kind of tarnish "Party Down" and the way people feel about it. I think I'm so proud of it, and we all love it, and we're so protective of it that it would be a real shame to do anything to sort of shake that up.
You would not be having fun yet.
(Laughs). That's right. The fun would not happen yet.

Naughty Las Vegas Vacation Ideas
Ideas for a naughty Las Vegas vacation or a couple's getaway in the Sin City in 2014? This is probably one of the most popular questions I've been asked! There are, in fact, so many fun things to do for a couple. To make things easier, I decided to sum up here all the naughty, adult things to do in Vegas for a couple.
Naughty Las Vegas Vacation - Best Strip Clubs For Couples
|Olympic Gardens
People are wondering which are the best strip clubs in Las Vegas for couples. The thing about Vegas strip clubs is that some of them are really "gentlemen's" clubs - ladies are not allowed in, and they only feature female strippers. It's always best to check their website or call in advance. You can find all the websites and more tips on what to do and what not to do in Las Vegas Strip Clubs.
These strip clubs are a perfect choice for a naughty Las Vegas vacation - they either have a special "ladies night", or have both female and male strippers on the same night so you both can enjoy your night out.

Naughty Las Vegas Vacation - Best Shows For Couples
|Beacher's Madhouse
|Carrot Top
|Defending Caveman
|Penn & Teller
|Divas Las Vegas
|Sin City Comedy
|Marc Savard
|Hypnosis Unleashed
|Anthony Cools
You may be wondering which are the naughtiest shows in Las Vegas suitable for a couple. Provided you are going to have fun together and not separately, I would swear by these shows as the most fun shows that almost any couple would enjoy. (If you are going to have fun separately - check out Male Revue and Topless Shows).
These are the naughtiest adult shows in Las Vegas that cater to both men and women. Of these, my personal favorite is Absinthe - but you also need to be able to appreciate adult crude humor to enjoy it. Zumanity is a naughty, very enjoyable show by Cirque du Soleil, with acrobatic stunts mixed with eroticism. Jubilee! will give you a taste of Old Vegas - it is more "retro" than naughty, and may be more appreciated by an older couple. Sin City Comedy Show is a mixture of stand up comedy and half naked dancers, so both of you will have something to enjoy during your glorious naughty Las Vegas vacation as a couple!
For a naughty Las Vegas vacation, you can't go wrong with either one of these hypnosis shows. The premise is more or less the same for all of them - a hypnotist and volunteers from the audience. Hypnotist hypnotizes volunteers and makes them do hilarious stuff, usually of adult nature. Remember - you must be really, really into dirty jokes and have no inhibitions to enjoy these shows!
And finally, here are my favorite shows in Las Vegas that are not really naughty, but very, very funny or just that good. Carrot Top is a hilarious red headed comedian, Penn & Teller are the best magicians, Divas is a musical show where all female actresses are portrayed by men-impersonators, and Defending The Cavemen is a hilarious one-man comedy show that makes fun of stupid misunderstandings that married couples tend to fight over.
Naughty Las Vegas Vacation - Best Hotels For Couples
Every vacation starts from finding the most suitable hotel - and we are no exception. Therefore, I found the naughtiest Las Vegas hotels suitable for a couple's getaway. My top choice are Planet Hollywood and The Mirage - both very adult hotels, frequented by party-loving public, where you surely will see some skin even if you are not looking for it. They offer plenty of entertainment, bars, night clubs. Planet Hollywood, for example, hosts the largest number of shows in Vegas. The wife/girlfriend could even take a Stripper 101 class to learn new tricks to entertain the husband/boyfriend!
Rio, Palms and Hard Rock hotel also cater to revelers with their 24/7 party atmosphere. Palms and Hard Rock Hotel host some of the hottest concerts in Vegas and the most incredible pool parties. Rio is home to a free show catering to adults -Show In The Sky with dancers dancing in gondolas hanging from the ceiling.
|The Mirage
|Planet Hollywood
|Hard Rock
Naughty Las Vegas Vacation Packages
Do you enjoy partying? Then you definitely need to get hold of one of those V Cards - the ultimate party pass in Vegas! This card, or more like vouchers, will give you absolutely free access to most of night clubs and even Strip clubs and pool parties (provided it's summer season) in Vegas. And if you are wondering whether the girl needs the card too - after all, women can get in most clubs for free, I'd suggest that you do need it. First of all, not all clubs are free for women. Second, with this card you would avoid surprises such as having to wait in line while the guy already got a free VIP access. On the other hand, if you are prepared to enjoy at least part of your naughty Las Vegas vacation separately, the girl could get a What Women Want Pass instead.

Naughty Las Vegas Vacation - Best Night Clubs For Couples
Assuming you have your V Card, where would you start partying? Here are all the best, naughtiest Las Vegas night Clubs - all of them are currently included into V Card. Otherwise, the cover charge is around $30 for each club. In other words, with only 2 night clubs you will justify the cost of the V Card.
Naughty Las Vegas Vacation - Best Pools
And I know you want to ask this question - what are the best, naughtiest pools in Las Vegas? Well there are 2 types of naughty adult pools here - pools with the hottest parties, and pools with European (topless) area. To make things more fun for your naughty Las Vegas getaway, I separated the pools into 2 categories.
Las Vegas European Pools
Here are the best European pools in Vegas. Please keep in mind that you do need to arrive to the pools in a nice presentable attire, and sober preferably. Otherwise they might not let you in!
|The Voo
European style
|Moorea Beach Club
European style
|Bare Pool
European style
Naughty Las Vegas Vacation - Guided Party Tours
If you don't want to do night club hopping by yourself, there are many guided party tours conducted by professionals! With most of these tours, the party starts even before you get to a night club - in the limo, with champagne toasts or other bottled services. Here are the most popular party tours for a perfectly naughty Las Vegas vacation.
|Pool Party
|Nite Tours
|Rock Star Tours
|Limo Party Tour
Best Las Vegas Pool Parties
These are the most fun pool parties - a perfect addition to a naughty couple's getaway in Las Vegas! Many of them are included in the V Card and you can get there absolutely for free and without having to wait in line.
|Encore Beach Club
|Tao Beach
|Liquid Pool
Naughty Las Vegas Vacation - Best Bars
Every naughty Las Vegas getaway should include some bar-hopping. But which bars are the naughtiest? I have selected the most fun theme bars in the city. They all have something to offer that other bars don't: either half dressed beautiful dancers, or stripper hosts, non-stop parties, famous bands, stand up comedians. I promise you won't get bored in them!
|Stripper Bar
|Carnaval Court
|Blondies Sports
|Coyote Ugly
|Dicks Last Resort
|Beauty Bar
|Hard Rock Cafe
|Diablo's Cantina
|Cabo Wabo Cantina
Naughty Las Vegas Vacation - Best Spas For Couples
Finally, after partying and playing, you may be interested in a relaxing massage, spa treatment or just soaking in a Jacuzzi. While you can't really find "naughty spa" in Las Vegas, the next closes thing is a spa that caters to couples or allows co-ed spa experience. Here are these magical spas:
|Spa at Encore
|Qua Baths & Spa
|Spa at Mandarin
|Spa & Salon Bellagio
|Canyon Ranch Spa
Hope you have a fabulous, naughty Las Vegas vacation that you will remember for ever!

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
My main problem is that the so called 'complexity' they added to ret when Cata hit wasn't very.. complex. That is unless complex is defined as underwhelming finishers and missing out on an underwhelming finisher in order to keep up a static buff that's well... generic and thoroughly uninteresting. I like to think of ret as a plate rogue without the quick/smooth rotation, and with a much more boring 'combo point' system. All in all it just feels like it was a rushed revamp of ret, pretty much the same as any other attempt they've had at reworking the spec over the last few years. I'd just like to see some solid thought put into finally getting ret where it needs to be fun-wise and balance-wise.

I write a blog called Love From The Brain. I like to examine love and relationships from a cerebral point of view and write about my thoughts. I have written several columns but my desire is to address questions or ideas presented to me. Real Ann Landers-ish. I believe that I have a unique perspective and it is worth reading. What I don't believe is that I know everything that people go through or have questions about and so while I can generate topics internally, the best columns I have written have been those that began with a person presenting me with a question.
So, I have turned here for questions. I am soliciting emails. I am asking you to write me. Ask me about anything love and relationship related and I will in turn answer your email on my blog.
Thank you and I hope to hear from you.

Talk:DigiXros Charts
this wiki
Back to page
Do we want to have these all on one sectioned page? Most of them are going to be quite short. Tabs are also an option, if you want.(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ (ಠ_ೃ)Bully! 05:27, May 20, 2011 (UTC)
Also, CloneWarrior has most if not all of the Part 1 videos here, for checking.(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ (ಠ_ೃ)Bully! 05:29, May 20, 2011 (UTC)
why can't we just stick to the basic digimon first (e.g. ballistamon) before branching out articles? Sclera1 05:43, May 20, 2011 (UTC)
- We are. I'm setting up the list now, so we know what all needs to be made, but only a few of the basic articles have been started. Also, most of the Bagra army ones are jogresses, and NeoVamdemon w/ Lopmons isn't really a digixros or jogress, so much as just eating their data for sustenance, like Myotismon or Sangloupmon.
- Lanate, do we want to merge modes with their main articles? It would make SkullKnightmon, Dorbickmon, and NeoVamdemon easier to deal with.(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ (ಠ_ೃ)Bully! 05:57, May 20, 2011 (UTC)
- That sounds fine with me. Lanate (talk) 06:29, May 20, 2011 (UTC)
- So, besides "Main, Mode", how do we want to organize these? Specifically, what's the theory behind Ballistamon's chart order?(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ (ಠ_ೃ)Bully! 23:00, May 20, 2011 (UTC)
- That sounds fine with me. Lanate (talk) 06:29, May 20, 2011 (UTC)
so, what is the difference between DigiXrose and Jogress? Sclera1 04:36, May 21, 2011 (UTC)
- As far as I can tell:
- DigiXros modifies and joins the component Digimon's data, while Jogress recompiles and fully combines it (so, DigiXros is like what is done with Chaosmon).
- Jogress turns the other Digimon into data, while DigiXros keeps them as full Digimon.
- DigiXros, you say "DigiXros".(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ (ಠ_ೃ)Bully! 12:33, May 21, 2011 (UTC)
Can someone please tell in which army, Xros Heart, Blue Flare, or Twilight, are Darkdramon, ExVeemon, Stingmon, WarGreymon, and MetalGarurumon in P.S. ThanksKiriha3 11:11, June 14, 2011 (UTC)
- ExVeemon and Stingmon are in Daisuke's army, and WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon are in Taichi and Yamato's army. I don't believe Darkdramon has a specific army, though. http://carddas.com/digimon (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ (ಠ_ೃ)Bully! 12:52, June 14, 2011 (UTC)
Xros Loader
Is this going to include DigiXroses from the Xros Loader toy and Digimon Xros Wars Mini, or are we keeping them solely as extensions of the Infobox (and thus, they follow DW:EVOLVE rules)?(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ (ಠ_ೃ)Bully! 01:13, July 6, 2011 (UTC)
- I was thinking they could follow DW:EVOLVE unless you don't want to. If you don't, however, then we have to find some way to separate the ones that follow DW:EVOLVE and the ones that don't. Lanate (talk) 16:26, July 6, 2011 (UTC)
- Honestly, Doing DigiXros Charts for the Xros Loader toy would be a nightmare, even if we exclude the weapon Xroses. I'd prefer they stay as game-evos.(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ (ಠ_ೃ)Bully! 19:15, July 6, 2011 (UTC)
I have a suggestion: What if we do a DigiXros Chart/Humans subpage? I think we may need it if we see another Human Xros someday. For now we could do only a Nene Amano Chart, but since Nene Amano is not a Digimon species and there's chance that we see another Human Xros, even if only in the manga, it seems better to put all Human Xroses that might appear in a single Chart, if they ever happen. Anime... PAAWAA!!! 03:49, December 16, 2011 (UTC)
- ? + Takato > Gallantmon, too, and Zenjirou Chibick Sword. Sure, treat "human" as a species if you want.(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ (ಠ_ೃ)Bully! 04:44, December 16, 2011 (UTC)
- I thought the Chibkck Sword was only the red Pickmon and Chibickmons. Are you sure that human in the flashback is Takato (Xros Wars version or anything) and not some human designed to look like him? Anime... PAAWAA!!! 13:35, december 16, 2011 (UTC)
- It's pretty clear that it's Takato, given the situation they're talking about. The XW manga makes plenty of references to past series.(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ (ಠ_ೃ)Bully! 14:26, December 16, 2011 (UTC)
- I know about the references, but I thought it was someone being designed to look like him or Takato's desing being generically used to represent someone. But on a Brazilian forum someone said the manga makes reference to the Legendary Generals, which is the title given to the previous heroes on Super Digica Taisen. Is this title also used in the manga? Anime... PAAWAA!!! 14:37, December 16, 2011 (UTC)
- I have no idea about that, but DarkKnightmon explicitly talks about the Adventure Millenniumon, and Gatomon references Kari.(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ (ಠ_ೃ)Bully! 16:06, December 16, 2011 (UTC)
How do we want to handle Nene-Shademon to Nene-Moon (or just Moon?)? would it be workable to have it be "DarkKnightmon Bloat, Nene-Shademon + Millenniummon > ZeedMillenniummon, MoonMillenniumon"? Or should they be separate? Or do we want to consider Shademon-Nene > Moon a digivolution?(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ (ಠ_ೃ)Bully! 14:50, February 8, 2012 (UTC)
- What is "DarkKnightmon Bloat"? I think it's "Shademon (Nene) + ZeedMillenniummon = Moon=Millenniummon", but are they the only components in the DigiXros? Didn't ZeedMillenniummon also absorb Tactimon's essence? And Dynasmon, did he die or was absorbed? I didn't get that part (maybe because I still didn't try to translate that).
- I think we should put the Shademon (Nene) Base on Shademon's chart, but Nene is clearly visible on these forms. Should we list on both the Shademon and Humans charts? Anime... PAAWAA!!! 15:03, February 8, 2012 (UTC)
- Oh, sorry. I was being informal, DarkKnightmon bloat is that bit before he got digixrosed with Millenniummon.
- I'd have to read the manga again to determine exactly when Shademon-Nene got absorbed, but for Tactimon and Dynasmon, I don't think they were components of a DigiXros, unless it actually showed the chains forming or something...I dunno, I guess we should wait until we get a translation.(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ (ಠ_ೃ)Bully! 18:07, February 8, 2012 (UTC)
I've noticed that on a few of the pages, the link to here was changed to DigiFuse Charts. Does that mean this whole thing's getting renamed to that? Chimera-gui (talk) 01:44, September 7, 2014 (UTC)

(1) War demands chronicling as few human endeavors do, with representations spanning from cave drawings to cell phone photographs. German experimental filmmaker Hito Steyerl considers the volatility particular to the filmic war document in her elegant short November (2004), playing in Kino21's series "How We Fight: Conscripts, Mercenaries, Terrorists, and Peacekeepers" (kicking off Sept. 25 and continuing through October, with the last program screening Nov. 23). Steyerl's essay-film turns on her reexamination of some spunky "feminist martial arts" footage she shot of her friend Andrea Wolf in light of the woman's later martyrdom as a Kurdish freedom fighter. Competing renditions of Wolf commingle, each containing elements of documentary and fiction, with the only real truth being Wolf's sublimation as a "traveling image."
(2) The YouTube hell of the footage captured in Iraq and Afghanistan as dramatized in Brian de Palma's angry Redacted (2007) and the damaged fictions of Michael Haneke was perhaps foreseen by Walter Benjamin in 1936: "The destructiveness of war furnishes proof that society has not been mature enough to incorporate technology as its organ." So it is that the crudeness of the digital loops shot by coalition forces and insurgents alike countervails the US military's computerized advancements. "How We Fight" opens with a compilation of this undigested material: footage from both sides synthesizing an implacable wave of mutilation. Insofar as any war can be said to have a film aesthetic, Iraq's is that of the surveillance shot the natural complement of the conflict's signature weapon, the IED. As if we were watching some perverted version of the Bazinian long take, we observe, in a real time blighted by dirty pixelation and distorting zooms, as a convoy approaches an explosion.
(3) In an expanding field of unprocessed moving images, the documentary increasingly sees its own role shift to that of an interpreter of visual information already at hand. How else to explain all the recent documentaries dedicated to contextualizing id-like streams of footage from the battlefield and newsroom? It remains to be seen which of these works will deliver as lasting an indictment as Winter Soldier (1971), a collectively directed project that counterposes soldiers' colored 8mm footage from Vietnam with the mauve black-and-white of their testimonies. For "How We Fight," Kino21 screens the rarely seen Interviews with My Lai Veterans (1970), a short film that cuts to the same bone.
(4) The issue of how these films garner testimony is of paramount importance, as evidenced by Errol Morris' problematic probe of Abu Ghraib's "bad apples" in Standard Operating Procedure. Exemplary in this regard is Heddy Honigmann's Crazy (1999). The Dutch filmmaker is a master interviewer who treats her subjects as autonomous beings Honigmann isn't afraid to prod, but she's not after dramatic effect. In Crazy, she stitches together interviews with Dutch veterans of United Nations peacekeeping missions by asking them to share songs they associate with their deployments. The music, which ranges from Cambodian pop to Guns N' Roses' take on "Knockin' on Heaven's Door," opens the channels of memory in unexpected ways and midwifes the guarded soldiers toward reflection and emotion. The passages in which Honigmann holds close-ups of the veterans listening to their songs possess a plaintive mystery unavailable to Morris's occupied camera.
(5) In the singular, combat films of all kinds often extol the false premises and ideals endemic to war. But taken as a collective enterprise, war documentaries pull back the curtain on the state-sponsored stagecraft and reveal the threads connecting disparate battles.

Had the best surprise in the bar last night when one of the best out there, my brother from another mother Sam, came walking up to me, haven't seen him looking so well in so long.
He was diagnosed with testicular cancer a while back and has been recieveing treatment for some time. We didn't talk much about 'the C word', but everyone that was involved in the brief conversation agreed that there ain't no shame in talking about it or getting checked out. It takes 5 minutes lads, if you haven't already, get on it.
Also, Sam gave me this rad bracelet from the team that took care of him when he needed it. Gonna be rocking this bad boy for a long time.

Hibbert on Manchester City, plus Arteta on Fellaini.
The views on this page are taken from the local and national media and do not necessarily reflect the views of Everton.
TONY HIBBERT insists Everton will not be daunted by the task of ending Manchester City's mammoth unbeaten run at the Etihad Stadium.
Roberto Mancini's side are undefeated in 36 Premier League home matches, dating back almost two years to December 2010.
But the defender, who made his injury comeback during Wednesday's 1-1 draw with Arsenal, believes Everton should take plenty of encouragement from being the last side to beat the reigning Champions on home turf in the league.
He said: "The big teams are who you want to play against and the lads look forward to this game every season. The bigger the team the better.
"The character we have shown over the years is really blossoming and we are taking games by the scruff of the neck.
"It's been like that all season. That's more or less how we started. Teams are expecting us to play good football and the fans are happy with that."
Hibbert is pleased to be back in the side as the Blues embark on a sequence of high-profile fixtures – with City, Spurs and Chelsea on the horizon before January.
A groin injury had kept the right-back out of action since the home match against Newcastle in mid-September.
But after impressing against the Gunners, Hibbert now wants to help keep City's star-studded forward line and Spurs at bay as Everton seek to force themselves back into the top four mix.
"I picked the easy game (to come back)," the 30-year-old quipped. "I have had a long lay-off. The injury was niggling and kept coming back so I eventually got it sorted and I am happy to be back.
"It's been frustrating and I don't think any footballer likes to be sat in the stands and watching the team, so it was just good to get back out there."
Hibbert's defensive colleague Phil Jagielka was equally upbeat about the signs of recovery against Arsenal.
He said: "Fair credit to the boys – they dug in and we played some decent football," was the stand-in captain's assessment.
"We put them under pressure but unfortunately the second goal never came. After the first minute we were value for our point.
"We know we are playing some good football and we mix it up as well. Felli was again a great target man for us and brought a lot of people into play.
"Having Gibbo back with Ossie, we have two great footballers making us tick. Stevie (Pienaar) and Bainesy speak for themselves, so we have got some decent footballers out there."
ANY side would miss the 'complete midfielder' and that is one of the accolades bestowed upon Darron Gibson in an admiring Goodison dressing room.
Indeed the Blues have sorely missed the Irishman's under-stated qualities during his agonising three-month spell on the sidelines – and whether by coincidence or not – things are looking up swiftly after his return.
Gibson's 73-minute run-out during the much-improved 1-1 draw with Arsenal was one of many promising signs in a game which restored some of the positivity to all things Everton ahead of a tough run of fixtures, and stand-in skipper Phil Jagielka was quick to praise the 25-year-old.
"It is nice to have him back," Jagielka said. "He learnt his trade at Manchester United. He's composed and has a good range of passing.
"He knows when you put the ball in behind and when to play to feet. He's not afraid to tackle or head, so he is pretty much the complete midfielder.
"He's a character as well and good to have around the dressing room."
The man himself is rarely given to over-statement, but admits he is delighted to be back after struggling to overcome the thigh injury which saw him hobble off against West Brom on September 1.
"It was nice to be back. It's been a long time coming and meant a lot of work in the gym so I was pleased to be back," he said.
"It felt good. I came off with a knock on my foot but I'll be alright for Saturday.
"It was frustrating to come off actually but maybe not doing the full 90 prevented any other niggles.
"It shouldn't take too long before I'm back to full fitness. I've been putting it in with the physios and fitness coaches for the last six weeks."
The announcement of Gibson's name as the line-up was read out before the game received a noticeably louder cheer, and after he was given a warm ovation when he was replaced, the midfielder acknowledged the crowd's appreciation of his talents.
"It was nice to be fair. I've been getting it for 12 weeks on Twitter asking when I was going to be back so it was a real lift," he said.
"It's been hard being out and I've had a few setbacks. Seeing the team play so well and not being involved was hard to take too so now I'm glad just to be back.
"I'd had a few problems with my thigh before the injury anyway and it needed sorting out so now hopefully it is.
"It doesn't get any easier being injured. You just know how to deal with it. The physios here are great and they help."
The Blues' seventh draw of the season saw them slip back a place to sixth in the Premier League table, but Gibson feels they were unfortunate not to take all three points from Arsene Wenger's men.
"I think we were unlucky over all," he said. "We didn't have the best of starts and it took us a while to settle but once we did we created chances although we couldn't take them.
"We've got a tough run of games coming up but we're playing well and creating chances. It would be worse if we weren't. If we can keep everyone fit and carry on playing this way I think we'll be alright."
Nikica Jelavic showed signs of returning to his best against the Gunners, but Gibson knows he and his team-mates must help ease the scoring burden on Jelavic and top scorer Marouane Fellaini.
"We'll have spells when we're missing chances and not scoring," he said.
"The rest of us have got to try and help them out. Hopefully we can start taking them now."
Gibson's highlight of last season was undoubtedly scoring his first goal for the Toffees in their 1-0 January victory over Manchester City, and with Roberto Mancini's men up next tomorrow he is excited about facing the champions.
"I don't look forward to it because of my United ties as such, it's more because they're probably the best team in the league at the minute," said the Derry-born player. "You always want to play against them.
"They haven't been as good as they were last season but it's still early on.
"They're still up there even though they're not at their best.
"When we play at our best I think we can beat anyone."
Everton have enjoyed a good run of results against the Citizens, and Gibson is ultimately confident that can continue – while he is focusing on staying fit and contributing to the Blues' fight to get back into the top four.
"If we play as well as we did against them last season we'll do alright," he said.
"The main thing for me is trying to stay fit and if I do the rest will come."
Arsenal star Mikel Arteta reckons rivals Everton have a powerful weapon in the battle for a Champions League place – Marouane Fellaini.
Former Goodison idol Arteta returned to his old club on Wednesday, as the Gunners and Toffees played out a 1-1 draw.
And the Spaniard says Fellaini, who replaced him as hero of the Blues fans and scored in the midweek clash, is so good that at times he becomes unplayable for opposition defences.
Arteta said: "Fellaini is one of the most difficult midfielders to play against because of his size.
"You don't normally come up against players like that in that position.
"When he's used in that forward position around the box it is much more difficult to play against him.
"He creates a lot of problems, uses his size well and is a threat around the goal – as you can see from his goals.
"For me, he is much more efficient playing there than when he is deeper.
"I have seen a tremendous improvement in Fellaini, especially in that forward position."
ARSENAL'S Mikel Arteta says his side now have a fight on their hands to qualify for the Champions League.
Arsenal's failure to capitalise on Walcott's opener after 49 seconds against Everton on Wednesday means they have won just one of their last five league games, the 5-2 win over Tottenham – who have now moved above them in the Premier League.
Arteta said: "Spurs are challenging now, West Brom have lost but have been doing really well and I think Everton have got a good chance if they keep everyone fit.
"The first 11-12 is really strong and they have started the season well, which I know from my time here is not normal! In the long run they will be there.
"I always want Everton to do the best they can. I love the players and the club and they are a big part of my life.
"That is not going to change because I play for a different club now."

a fictional extraterrestrial race of mutants from the British science fiction television series Doctor Who. Within the series narrative, Daleks are cyborgs made from their original forms, extraterrestrial Kaleds from the planet Skaro, genetically modified and integrated within a tank-like robotic mechanical shell. They were created by the scientist Davros during the final years of a thousand-year war against the Thals. The Daleks are a powerful race bent on universal conquest and domination, utterly without pity, compassion or remorse. Various storylines portray them as having had every emotion removed except hate, leaving them with a desire to purge the Universe of all non-Dalek life. Despite featuring as regular villains, in an off-screen war taking place before the revived series, the Daleks were destroyed. As such, all Daleks featured since the show's revival in 2005 escaped the war in some way. Collectively they are the greatest enemies of the series' protagonist, the Time Lord known as the Doctor. They are popularly known for their catchphrase "Exterminate!" and are a well-recognised reference in British popular culture, and are listed in several major dictionaries.

More than half of migraine sufferers are affected by weather. The most common weather factors that affect migraines are:
Major weather changes over one or two days
Changes in barometric pressure
Some migraines attributed to weather are not related to it at all. Many people tend to pin their headaches on weather patterns, when other triggers, such as excessive consumption of caffeine or changes in sleep patterns, may actually be the cause. If weather truly is a trigger for you, watch the forecasts. Then you can take preventive medications when troublesome weather lies ahead. Please consult with your health care provider about the general use of preventive medications for migraine.

Madeleine Albright: Putin 'Delusional'
Madeleine K. Albright, who is speaking publicly this week about defusing the explosive situation in the Ukraine, will explore the issues in detail at a Women in the World event on Wednesday in Washington, D.C. While Vladimir Putin claims the recent military build-up in Crimea is intended to protect Russian interests in the region, the international community isn't buying that. In an interview with CNN on Tuesday, Albright said "Putin is delusional about this," adding, "I think that either he does not have the facts, he is being fed propaganda or his own propaganda." In another interview with Fareed Zakaria over the weekend, Albright urged the U.S. to stand up for Ukraine's sovereignty. "[We need] to make absolutely clear Europe's and America's support for the people of Ukraine, their possibility of having a functioning government, helping them with economic assistance." The former secretary of State, who has extensive experience with conflict resolution in southeastern Europe, forged during wars in Kosovo and Bosnia, will discuss the ongoing conflict with Tina Brown.

God's Cure for Weariness
Stay spiritually and physically energized with these techniques drawn from the Bible.
Weariness isn't something new. It's been around as long as work and frustration, as long as difficulty and daylight. Jesus, more than 2,000 years ago, said, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest" (Matthew 11:28).
But weariness is more than simply being tired. It's a lethargy that worms its way into our souls. We become worn down in a way that isn't eradicated by the usual prescription of rest and recreating. It's more than something physical. It's spiritual. Where does weariness come from? What can we do about it?
Featured Product
The Daily Bible
Laid out in chronological order so you can follow the Bible just as it happened – like a magnificent epic novel!
Staying focused on our faith and on what God asks us to do is the best prevention for weariness. Here are some simple precautions that help us along the way:
1. Don't do unnecessary things.
Focus your heart on doing what God puts right in front of you today before you pay attention to anything else on your to-do list. His work doesn't have to be outwardly grand or glorious; it may be something very simple (and easy to overlook). "Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain" (1 Corinthians 15:58).
2. Stay connected.
We are made for companionship and community, and living in isolation is tiring to the soul. If no one is reaching out to you, take the initiative and reach out to others! For "whoever refreshes others will be refreshed" (Proverbs 11:25).
3. Confess your sins regularly.
"Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord" (Acts 3:19). If God can be worn down by our trespasses, so can we! Carrying around a guilt-laden soul is sure to weary us.
4. Seek revitalization instead of numbness.
When we're tired, the easiest course of action is often to do something mindless. But it is the Lord who "refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name's sake" (Psalm 23:3). Turning to Him works far better than turning on the television.
5. Know what brings you joy.
When we are weary, we often cannot even remember what lifts our hearts. Keep a list of your blessings handy, to help you re-focus on what really matters.

I ask for your prayers and blessings over the family of my friend, Jennie Huff. Both of her parents are elderly and extremely ill. Her father is being treated by Hospice and here mother has been in and out of the hospital as well. She is repeatedly trying to fight of infections and symptoms that doctors could not find for weeks and she is very frail and possibly giving up. Jennie and her other siblings are all working full-time and, of course, taking time off and spending as much time as possible to care for and be present with her folks. Jennie is a single woman and does not have anyone at home to fall back on. She has physical issues of her own and the stress is putting her health at risk. I know you will pray for Jennie and her family, to ease their hardships and provide understanding and some sort of renewal in their days as they walk through this very difficult time. Thank you so much and God Bless You, too. :-0
My prayers go out to Jennie and her family. Please remember that God is in control at all times and he watches over each and everyone of us. He has his arms wrapped around Jennie and her family as we speak. Just continue to lean on him and trust him. Faith will guide you through.
Thank you for that word! Its a blessing & inspiring.
I will put my hope, trust,and faith in God who is my help. I am dependent on Him only.
Thank you for those words of encouragement May God continue to Bless you
Your articles are uplifting and inspiring, to me. I also, appreciate your kind prayers, at times when I really needed them. I have come so much closer to God, because of your prayers and faith in God. Thank you, sincerely, Claudia Murch

Over the years many people have posted great things about Paul Tiffer. I want to add my experience to the others. My brother in law and his family had struggled for practically two years with a different lawyer trying to advance through the residency process and never got anywhere. I heard about Paul on Nicaliving and we met with him in April. He walked all of us through the whole thing and it worked exactly as he said it would. They received their cedulas last Thursday. I don't want to sound like a commercial for Tiffer & Associates, but when you find someone as good at his craft as is Paul, credit must be given where it is due!
Paul Tiffer
I, too, used Paul to get my residency. He was efficient and honest. I would recommend him to anyone.... The whole thing took 6 months for a retiree cedula.
That's longer than local average
Are you ex-miitary or ex-police? Those categories do appear to take longer.
Rebecca Brown
I would like to endorse the posting regarding Paul Tiffer. My family has used Paul's services to obtain residency and I can unequivocally report that he has been both prompt in response and highly efficient in getting everything done smoothly. Yes, credit where credit is due.
Paul Tiffer, Attorney
Two years ago, Paul Tiffer worked very hard to help me obtain my residency under a new status, Rentista. At about the same time, INTUR got organized and started processing applications in accordance with the rules and regulations. As an attorney myself, I was nervous about the whole process, particularly since I was not any where near fluent in the language. With Paul's guidance and the help of the folks at INTUR, we got the job done and I was granted residency status. Although it took some time, footwork and patience, it was worth it, and a good introduction to the Nicaraguan legal system and its agencies.
Paul is a good guy, and a good and ethical attorney who speaks English. If I have legal or governmental policy questions or concerns, I always bounce them off of Paul and he always responds. You cannot go wrong referring your friends to him and, if he doesn't know the answer or that area of the law, he will tell you that too – what a breath of fresh air, especially here in Nicaragua.
Extraordinary comment and recommendation
Thank you Jeff for you extraordinary comment and recommendation, the true is have been working during several years – in Residency, Real Estate purchases, Corporations, and other legal topics for my clients - and try to do in a smooth way for them, sometimes there are delays, because the applicants send documents too late or without authentications; because in Immigration department without previous notification change internal rules & nowadays they have more applicatioins than some years ago. I am learning everyday how to deal with those delays in favor of applicants. Thank again for posting this comment.
--- I invite you to ready: How to legalized my documents to apply for Residency in Nicaragua. http://www.nicaliving.com/node/21747 ---
Best Regards Paul Tiffer Attorney at law firstname.lastname@example.com

Greetings, World.We are #OpMaryvilleTwo young girls have been raped in the town of Maryville, Missouri. Another high school football star, the grandson of a Missouri state official, has walked free. The people of Maryville turned their backs on these victims and one family has been forced to flee the town. Their house was later burned to the ground.We demand an immediate investigation into the handling by local authorities of Daisy's case. Why was a suspect, who confessed to a crime, released with no charges? How was video and medical evidence not enough to put one of these football players inside a court room? What is the connection of these prosecutors, if any, to Rep. Rex Barnett? Most of all, We are wondering, how do the residents of Maryville sleep at night?I, too, wonder how the people of Sodom sleep at night.
I swear between this and the stealing of Phineas the dog in Salem, I'm beginning to be embarrassed to be from Missouri.

Remember that time Jarvis, King Robert Baratheon, The Joker and Wash hung out.
And my longheld love of this movie's cast has been fully justified.
Loving A Knight's Tale never requires justification, because it is and has always been a 100% valid life choice. It is a perfect movie.

RALEIGH, N.C. — The biographer whose extramarital affair with then-CIA director David Petraeus triggered his resignation says she regrets the relationship and the harm and grief it caused her family.
Paula Broadwell told WSOC-TV in Charlotte on Thursday that she credited her husband and friends for standing by her as she rebuilds her life six months after her relationship with the married Petraeus was revealed by an FBI investigation and ignited a political firestorm. TV crews camped out front of her family home for days and Broadwell went into seclusion. The couple has two young children.

Oct. 22, 2008 -- All adult cigarette smokers should get the pneumococcal vaccine, the CDC's vaccine advisory committee today recommended.
The panel previously recommended that as of 2009, adults with asthma should get the vaccine. Adults aged 65 or over, and those with chronic illness, are already advised to get the vaccine.
But more than half of serious invasive pneumococcal diseases occur in people who smoke cigarettes.
Smoking just one cigarette a day doubles pneumococcal pneumonia risk. There's nearly a fourfold higher risk in those who smoke 15 to 24 cigarettes a day. More than 24 cigarettes a day increases risk 5.5-fold.
Risk increases with years of smoking and number of packs of cigarettes smoked.
During its deliberations, members of the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) wondered whether risk could already be elevated in 19-year-old smokers. Nevertheless, the panel voted to make a clear recommendation for all smokers, advising the vaccine for all smokers aged 19 and older.
Doctors who offer the vaccine to smokers, the panel said, should also offer counseling on quitting smoking.
Currently, vaccination with pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine is recommended for:
The CDC usually follows the recommendation of the ACIP.
