3 Secrets for Getting More Sleep
- Divvy up morning chores: Lisa Ziegler, 38, of Fresh Meadows, New York, says that she and her husband sneak in more bed time by alternating who takes their kids to school: "That extra hour I get some days makes a world of difference -- I'm not a grouchy mommy," she says.
- Plan ahead: Beth Coker, 47, of Medford, Oregon, does all the prep work she can at night, when she's most efficient -- packing lunches, ironing clothes, and laying them out for the next day, collecting her work papers -- so she can sleep in later.
- Change your routine: Eliana Agudelo, 32, of San Francisco, reports that she's been getting more sleep ever since she stopped bringing books to bed with her: "I'd always get hooked on a great novel and end up staying awake for half the night!" she says.

If you're a fan of Disney's and Pixar's movie "Cars" you'll be happy to hear the Sheriff of Radiator Springs makes a pit stop in south east Kansas.
The voice of the Sheriff Michael Wallis stopped for an autograph signing in Galena at the Streetcar Station Coffee Shop. His books Route 66: The Mother Road and David Crockett: The Lion of the West were also sold at the shop. Wallis is a writers hall of fame of America inductee and helped found the Route 66 Alliance.
He says Galena is a shinning example of what the rest of the route should look like.
"I'm so impressed with what galena has done in the last year, year and a half and for me a champion of Route 66 preservation, this is a great example of what other small towns between Chicago and Santa Monica can do" says Wallis.
Wallis plans on coming back to town for the International Route 66 Festival the 1st weekend of August.
Cherokee County Sheriff David Groves. Galena Police Chief Larry Delmont and Galena Mayor Dale Oglesby also showed up to say hi to the other Sheriff in town.

right prism is composed of a set of flat surfaces.
base is a polygon. In the figure above it is a regular pentagon, but it can be any regular or irregular polygon. To find
the area of the base polygons, see
Area of a regular polygon and
Area of an irregular polygon.
Since there are two bases, this is doubled and accounts for the "2b" term in the equation above.
Each lateral face (side) of a right prism is a rectangle. One side is the height of the prism, the other the length of that side of the base.
If the prism is regular, the bases are
regular polygons.
and so the perimeter is 'ns' where s is the side length
and n is the number of sides. In this case the surface area formula simplifies to
There is no easy way to calculate the surface area of an oblique prism in general.
The best way is to work from the fact that it is composed of two bases whose areas can be calculated as above. But to find the areas of the faces, you would need to consider them separately and find the area of each based on what you are given.

ALBANY, N.Y. – For the tenth straight year, a Christmas Eve dinner will be provided to the families and loved ones at the Inn at St. Peter's hospice.
A dedicated group of volunteers will make and deliver the dinner to the Inn.
The dinner is held in honor of the late Rev. Beth Dewey, a Baptist minister who died of acute myeloid leukemia.
The dinner started in 2003, after a dinner amongst friends on Christmas Eve. There was so much food left over that all the hospice residents were invited to join.
One couple that joined was grateful because they had eaten only vending machine food for two weeks, being too busy at the hospice to cook or go out.
It was with that realization that the dinner became a staple at the hospice, and it has since become an interfaith community project.
The food for the turkey dinner is donated and prepared by volunteers. Saratoga Springs' temple Sinai's Slice of Heaven Bakery provides the homemade bread; the Ahmadiyya Muslim community in Rotterdam Junction bakes cookies, Adirondack Chapter VFP members help to cook and deliver the food. This year the Dennison Farm in Schaghticoke donated the vegetables for the meal.

And in today's Portlandia moment, live from Seattle: the front page of the Seattle Times. Caption: Melany Vorass cooks risotto with onions, white wine, mushrooms—and a gray squirrel she caught in her yard.
I might try this. I had Brunswick Stew years ago, which I think is also from the Joy of Cooking 1967 edition that Vorass mentions, but I used rabbit.
However, I think a hachet to the neck is a faster death than Vorass' technique:
Vorass traps the squirrels live and then drowns them, which she has determined is the quickest death for the animals.
I checked and squirrel is an 'unprotected species' in NY State, and therefore homeowners can trap them at will, since they are a nuisance, as are hares and rabbits.

Ayesha Takia is finally done with her sabbatical. Though she thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it, she does concede that she missed the Bollywood action.
Farhan Azmi (husband) too encouraged her to resume acting, even though he isn't too fond of cinema. "But he's seen all my films, " says a beaming Ayesha.
The actor who will be seen as an independent and mature girl in her upcoming film talks to CS about her family and films:
We are family
I might be playing an independent girl in my next project, but frankly, I'm not too independent. In fact, I'm rather dependent on my family for every decision that I make.
My mother has always been my best friend and Farhan is someone whose advice has always mattered to me.
Though he's not really a film buff, he's enthusiastic about me acting because he knows that it makes me happy. But he's also glad that I'm a part of his business (hospitality).
Business buzz
In fact, all this while during my sabbatical, I've mainly been learning the ropes of his business. But it's not been all work and no play for me. I'm quite a chilled-out person and I make it a point to enjoy what I do.
So Farhan and I head to London almost every month and we end up travelling to Dubai very frequently too. Who says that running a business is boring? For someone like me, who entered the entertainment world at the young age of 16, travelling is a new experience.
I never really got to explore the world till I got married, so now I'm enjoying the experience of seeing new places. And having Farhan for company makes it even more fun.
Heart of the matter
I might be married and all, but I'm still a complete romantic at heart. I'm also a sucker for love stories, so I end up watching all these mushy films. They remind me of the time when I first fell insanely in love.
It feels good to be acting in a romantic film after a long time. Though Wanted had a love story, it was more of an action drama.
But yes, I thoroughly enjoyed acting in Socha Na Tha. That was the time when I started dating Farhan, so the film will always be special to me.
Though I eventually found out that Farhan wasn't too much into films (laughs). But I must say that he's watched every film that I have starred in. And he loved Dor. I hope he likes my upcoming projects too.

Re: September Board
Amy: I will try out the pillow. I didn't talk to the dh last night. I couldn't. He looked beat from work and I didn't want to have that talk when he was so tired. He did ask if I had been crying and I just shrugged. It was hard to talk without crying again. But he knows something is wrong I barely talked last night and he knows that's not normal. The talk might have to wait until Sunday when neither if us are working. I've never been one for confrontations so I am dreading this. I'm not very good at writing fiction either. It has to have happened to me before I can put a fiction twist to it. I make fun of myself when I write or I use personal experiences in the story. The only crafty stuff I can do is crochet. I can semi draw and if I put my mind to it I can be creative.

Big engine, small car: It's a classic recipe that's produced some of the coolest cars in history. Yet nowadays it's all about downsizing, with the next M3 returning to a six-cylinder after its foray into V8 muscle.
And while big motors are fun, who would deny that when BMW decided to give "M" aficionados a 1 Series deserving of the tricolor badge, a look under the hood at its N54 3.0L straight-six and pair of turbos confirmed it was just about the perfect combination for the 1 Series M Coupe. After all, 335bhp and 332 lb-ft in the small coupe bodyshell was sufficient to satisfy even the most ardent enthusiast.
However, tuners often like to pick up the baton and run from the point where car manufacturers stop. And where most companies would begin by massaging the ECU and increasing the boost, German tuner G-Power chose to do things differently. Very differently indeed.
For their interpretation of the BMW 1M, the straight-six biturbo was junked in favor of the S65 4.0L V8 from the E9X M3. And while even this would be enough for most people, G-Power fitted an ASA T1-523 supercharger for good measure.
With the power up to 600hp, this is the automotive equivalent of strapping a missile to its back and blasting into outer space.
G-Power's new supercar was appropriately named the G1 V8 Hurricane RS and we were granted an audience with the very first example. Since it was highly bespoke, the exact price was hard to pin down but don't budget for less than $200k if you'd like to own something like this.
Being handed the keys to such a powerful and expensive supercar was rather daunting, but opportunities like this don't come every day...
We searched for the perfect roads to take advantage of what the Hurricane had to offer, and it didn't take long to find a quiet stretch of pavement. It was here that we examined the effect of stuffing a supercharged V8 under the hood of the 1 Series Coupe.
We probably don't need to confirm that it's fast. 600hp at 7800rpm and 430 lb-ft at 3900rpm in a 3500 lb two-door was always a recipe for straight-line fireworks; but this was just the stepping off point - G-Powers has a close relationship with supercharger manufacturer ASA, allowing for the tantalizing possibility of future evolutions with even more power...
Married to the seven-speed dual-clutch DCT transmission, the Frankenstein 1M appears to compress time and distance like no other. You can melt the tires all day long if you like, but hook everything up, find the grip, and the acceleration is utterly brutal.
Wheelspin is easily provoked with the traction control turned off, but its traction is actually quite good, once it's been discovered. As a result, the supercharged V8 does most damage once the rear wheels have full purchase on the tarmac: at around 40mph in the dry. If the road is wet, leave the Hurricane in the garage!
Supercharging has become a hallmark of G-Power. And where the stock 1M delivered its torque in a wave of low-revs thrust, the V8 RS builds power in a linear fashion. So the faster the engine spins, the more power you get. As a result, the characteristic high-RPM lunge for the redline made by the M3's S65 V8 is present and correct, but ramped up about 50%. And behind the wheel of a 1 Series, it's both thrilling and faintly absurd.
We weren't able to record performance figures but the tuner claims 0-62mph in 4.4sec, 0-125mph under 12.7sec and a top speed of 205mph. In fact, G-Power has a reputation for demonstrating top speed publicly (search G-Power on YouTube) so they should soon be able to verify the numbers.
Supercharging pays dividends in other areas, too. The smooth, linear power delivery, for example, compares favorably to the thump of torque typical of turbocharged engines. It also makes the BMW easier to drive up to and beyond the limit of its grip. And once at the limit, the G1 RS was very easy to balance on the throttle.
Of course, 600hp demands respect, but it was simple to meter the power, reaching the point where the rear wheels were rotating a little faster than the road speed. The glorious result was a car that could be balanced on the throttle all day long. It was also reassuring to find a grippy and precise front-end to rely on. And although the steering wasn't the last word in road feel, every element of the 1M's fantastic chassis balance could be exploited.
Inevitably, the Hurricane is a drift champion. Sharper body control, thanks to its tailored KW suspension, played its part, as well as the DCT transmission that allowed the driver to focus on braking and turn-in. Fortunately, the huge Mov'It brakes were more than a match for the outrageous performance, with the pedal remaining firm no matter how hard we drove.
In addition to its ASA blower, the V8 engine received a cast aluminum air box with eight induction pipes to balance throttle response. It also got a large front-mounted water-to-air intercooler plus a stainless steel exhaust system that provides a vicious bark to the V8 rumble.
The chassis sports the aforementioned KW Clubsport coilovers and Mov'It brakes that utilize six-piston front and four-piston rear calipers with 396mm carbon-ceramic rotors all round. These fit under 20x9" front and x10" rear G-Power Silverstone Diamond wheels with 255/30 and 295/25 Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires, respectively.
The brakes are said to be 50% lighter than the stock parts, and G-Power added to the savings with a carbon hood and trunk - the hood possessing an M3-style power bulge and vents.
Despite being a ripped musclecar, the G1 RS is remarkably civilized inside. Rather than the customary stripped-out, roll-caged track refugee, the cabin received a full retrim in white leather with brown alcantara highlights.
It created a stunning environment to cosset you from the commotion outside. Even the exhaust was quiet when unprovoked, and the DCT allowed effortless paddle-shifts. Naturally, you could specify any exterior or interior color combination, but this exquisite combination seemed very calming.
When the car was conceived, the brief was to create the most extreme 1 Series Coupe possible, while retaining daily usability. And with the G1 V8 Hurricane RS, G-Power hit the nail on the head. So while 600bhp in a compact coupe might have been a nightmare a few years ago, lurching at low speed, burning through clutches and with an overheated cabins, what we have here is a 1M able to outrun most supercars, deliver huge grins and transport you 500 miles without stress. It's another awesome display of the tuner's art and became an instant classic as soon as the wheels first turned.

Khloe Kardashian gets workout tips from husband
Khloe Kardashian has praised her husband Lamar Odom for supporting her in her bid to lose weight and loves getting workout tips from him
Khloe Kardashian loves getting workout tips from her husband Lamar Odom.
The 28-year-old reality TV star - who recently lost 25 pounds - has praised her professional basketball star beau, who plays for the Los Angeles Clippers, for helping her to stay fit and healthy.
The 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' star wrote on her Twitter page on Saturday (11.05.13): ''I love when Lamar gives me workout tips and shows me new things! He's like my own personal trainer :) thank you baby!''
The brunette beauty, who recently admitted losing weight has been ''hard work'' for her, also revealed on her blog that she is drinking lots of green vegetable juices in her bid to perfect her bikini body.
She wrote on Friday (10.05.13): ''I am totally on a green kick right now! They look gross, but green drinks are so nutritious and delicious, contain tons of vitamins, and help you lose weight. Grab a green juice for a refreshing post-workout thirst quencher, or a protein-infused green smoothie for a light lunch. Drink better, feel better!''
Khloe previously revealed that she has started sneaking healthy snacks into Lamar's basketball games.
She said: ''I do sneak snacks but it's not like I'm sneaking anything bad. It's a good thing; I'm sneaking apples and edamame.
''I'm trying. It is part of the process. I definitely don't deprive myself but I try to eat, if I want something, I'll try to eat it earlier in the day.
''My problem is that I go to a basketball game every other day and you don't think, 'oh let me just have a handful of that caramel corn', you really don't think about how much it does add up.
''You leave there at 11pm and sometimes Lamar and I will go to dinner after - you really have to pay attention.
''I try to eat better later in the day. If I want something sweet or I want a cookie, I will have one instead of eating a whole box of cookies.
''It is definitely hard work, it doesn't happen over night but as long as you're consistent, that is the key.''

Meet Katie Morris from Veritrust Wealth Management.
She is located in Lisle Illinois.
She is a friend of mine as well as a valued customer.
How did you first learn about Shaklee? Do you remember?
I had heard about Shaklee a couple times in various networking groups I was in. When I met you Moyra, I finally started to listen. I liked the idea of the safe cleaners for my home and my family.
Do you have a favorite product or products?
I love the laundry products. My youngest son has very sensitive skin and I use the products free of fragrance. The clothes seem cleaner and fresher after they are washed with the Fresh Laundry. The dryer sheets are awesome and last a long time. Anything for static cling?
----We also have a fabricsoftener that can be added to the wash load. There is some mild fragrance from botanicals. It really helps to soften sheets and towels and eliminate static cling.
The kid's vitamins have been great. We use theIncredivites. They have helped with the kids immunities. We find that my kids stay well even when we are around others who are sick.
There are many other companies and products out there. Why do you stay with Shaklee?
Shaklee seems to take great care to research their products and test them for safety. I'm impressed by the fact that they remove products from their product line when there are concerns about the production of them. It says a lot when a company is willing to lower revenues by removing products from the lineup in order to maintain the level of quality and safety. Also, all of the Shaklee distributors that I have known have walked the walked, not just tried to sell a product. They live a healthy life.
I like that you are here to be an adviser to me and my health.
Are there any products that you wish Shaklee had?
Kids probiotics in a chewable form. ----We talked about the Citriboost as an option to get a pre and probitoic in the kids when mixed with a smoothie or orange juice. I also recommend trying to encourage the kids to swallow the optiflora littlepearl with a straw to begin with. Pushing the straw increases the chance of success in swallowing.
Make up. I love the skin care and wished they had a makeup line. --- of course we all miss the Minerelles make up line. I also love the Tarte makeup line that I find is very similar to what Shaklee used to have. I love the tinted moisturizer for a foundation. The concealer is wonderful also with the mascara and lipsticks. I find it at Ulta.
What does 2014 look life for you Katie ?
I have been blessed with a growing and thriving business. I love waking up every day and doing work I know I was born to do. I also have three young children, so I am always working on balancing my time so I can be there for my clients and of course, my family. So far, 2014 is off to a great start and I know there are many great things to follow.

A Bainbridge teen encourages an entire community to pay it forward. This deserving man was rewarded for his selflessness and willingness to help others.
Billy Simmons listens to music in his new car, a simple pleasure that he couldn't enjoy before. But thanks to one teen who pushed the community to pay it forward, Simmons has a new set of wheels.
"I couldn't believe it, I told my girlfriend Sandy that we got a car, she couldn't believe it either, I was just covered in tears," said Simmons. Last Friday, 15 year old Ellie Jeter surprised Simmons, who is disabled, with the car.
Jeter says after watching Simmons give his only mattress away to a family in need she was motivated to help him during his time of need.
With a plan and a prayer she reached out to the community to raise money to purchase a Firebird for Simmons.
"Up until the end we didn't tell him that we had bought it because he still thought he was going to have to pay for it," said Jeter. "Right before he got in the car we told him the last part and that he would not have to pay for anything that the community had taken care of it."
Simmons works at Walmart and while he admits he doesn't have much to give, what he does have he gives freely. "I just like to help people, it was a blessing from God…"
While Jeter says she didn't do it for the fanfare, her heart for helping has really captivated the community. "God showed me through it all, that this is what I needed to do and it was a life changing experience that I will never forget."
Walmart also contributed by paying for insurance on the car for a full year.

Thursday was the fourth anniversary of the confrontation with Spokane police that led to unarmed shopper Otto Zehm's death.
A gathering sponsored by the Peace & Justice Action League of Spokane took place at the Zip Trip, 1712 N. Division St., where Officer Karl Thompson confronted the 36-year-old, mentally ill janitor after two young women erroneously reported that he had stolen money from a nearby ATM. Read Tom Clouse's story here.
The next day, Thompson appeared in U.S. District Court in downtown Spokane, where he faces felony charges of using unreasonable force and lying to investigators. His tiral is set for June 2.
Friday's court appearances was for a motion hearing by Thompson's lawyer seeking Zehm's medical records from 2000, when Zehm went off his medications and had an episode that caused him to be involuntarily placed at Eastern State Hospital.
Lawyer Carl Oreskovich argues Zehm was suffering from "excited delirium" before his 2006 confrontation with police, making it a pre-existing mental condition that therefore justified the level of force used to detain him. A judge could rule on the request as early as this week.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
This new system is called "Achievements", right? Here's what Merriam-Webster has to say about that word:
1: the act of achieving : accomplishment
2 a: a result gained by effort b: a great or heroic deed
3: the quality and quantity of a student's work
You set a goal, you work toward it, and you achieve it.
How is getting a good roll out of the RNG to see the Squashling drop, followed by another good roll to win it, an "accomplishment" or "a result gained by effort"?
Now, I'm really stoked about the whole accomplishment system. But especially with time-limited holiday events, could "earn the capricious favor of the entropic gods of the RNG" not play such a large role? I suppose the drop rates might be greatly adjusted this year, but if the Squashling is anything like the mount drops from Brewfest, I don't really see this as an "accomplishment". Some people got lucky and nabbed a Kodo their first day in. A lot of commenters claim they ran Direbrew 5+ times every day and never got a mount. Some did little work to get the reward; others put in a lot of work and ended up with nothing to show for it. That's the RNG, and that's not an achievement.
Maybe Blizzard has a different philosophy regarding holidays in general--the "cool" stuff stays on very low drop rates to remain rare; if you keep running holidays, eventually you'll get something rare/cool. I'd like to propose making the cool stuff "expensive"--in terms of effort required to obtain it--is a better way to go. I'm thinking of Brewfest '07 here, where if you wanted the ram, you ground out 600 tickets for the ability to purchase it. That kept me engaged and running all the dailies every day, and at the end, I was excited to get my ram. Yes, anyone and everyone *could* end up with a Brewfest ram that way, which makes it less rare--but no less cool. And honestly, in the intervening year, I've seen very few other people riding around on a Brewfest ram, so I'm not at all convinced that system made the ram less rare.
One more point here--the toon that got the Brewfest ram was my warlock, because I though the glowing green eyes on the epic version fit that toon. My main is a paladin, and I can't really see him riding that ram. The beauty of the system of Brewfest '07 was that I could choose--I decided a certain of my toons wanted a reward, and I was able, with a little diligent effort, to get that reward for that toon. My paladin still ran Brewfest and got the clothes, but didn't bother with the ram. All in all, I had a blast with Brewfest '07--because achieving (there's that word again!) my desired reward was within my power, as a player.
Looking at Hallow's End, I'd really like to make my paladin "Trueheart the Hallowed". If it required consistent effort throughout the event, I'd stay engaged and enjoy my accomplishment at the end. If I put forth consistent effort to have a small chance at getting what I'm aiming for, and the RNG didn't favor me, I'd honestly think twice before really engaging Winter's Veil.
So, Blizzard, if you're reading (and we hear you do keep an eye on this site), here's my proposal: that offering players guaranteed rewards based on effort in game is superior offering players rewards that may or may not come with effort--superior in terms of player engagement with the content and ultimate player satisfaction. Especially with seasonal, time-limited holiday events. I'm sore that I've never seen the Triptych Shield of the Ancients from the Chess event despite months of weekly Karazhan runs, but I know there's always next week (at least until we're off for Northrend). Knowing there's always next YEAR for this Hallowed achievement is a much more bitter pill to swallow.

All the lonely peopleMay 21,2013Over the past decade, the United States has become a less violent country in every way save one. As Americans commit fewer and fewer crimes against other peoples lives and property, they have become more likely to inflict fatal violence on themselves.
In the 1990s, the suicide rate dipped with the crime rate. But since 2000, it has risen, and has jumped particularly sharply among the middle-aged. The suicide rate for Americans 35 to 54 increased nearly 30 percent between 1999 and 2010; for men in their 50s, it rose nearly 50 percent. More Americans now die of suicide than in car accidents, and gun suicides are almost twice as common as gun homicides.
This trend is striking without necessarily being surprising. As the University of Virginia sociologist Brad Wilcox pointed out recently, theres a strong link between suicide and weakened social ties: people and especially men become more likely to kill themselves when they get disconnected from societys core institutions (e.g., marriage, religion) or when their economic prospects take a dive (e.g., unemployment). Thats exactly what weve seen happen lately among the middle-aged male population, whose suicide rates have climbed the fastest: a retreat from family obligations, from civic and religious participation, and from full-time paying work.
The hard question facing 21st-century America is whether this retreat from community can reverse itself, or whether an aging society dealing with structural unemployment and declining birth and marriage rates is simply destined to leave more people disconnected, anxious and alone.
Right now, the pessimistic scenario seems more plausible. In an essay for The New Republic about the consequences of loneliness for public health, Judith Shulevitz reports that one in three Americans over 45 identifies as chronically lonely, up from just one in five a decade ago. With baby boomers reaching retirement age at a rate of 10,000 a day, she notes, the number of lonely Americans will surely spike.
There are public and private ways to manage this loneliness epidemic through social workers, therapists, even pets. And the Internet, of course, promises endless forms of virtual community to replace or supplement the real.
But all of these alternatives seem destined to leave certain basic human yearnings unaddressed.
For many people, the strongest forms of community are still the traditional ones the kind forged by shared genes, shared memory, shared geography. And neither Facebook nor a life coach nor a well-meaning bureaucracy is likely to compensate for these forms attenuation and decline.
This point is illustrated, richly, in one of the best books of the spring, Rod Drehers memoir, The Little Way of Ruthie Leming, an account of his sisters death from cancer at the age of 42. A journalist and author, Dreher had left their small Louisiana hometown behind decades before and never imagined coming back. But watching how the rural community rallied around his sister in her crisis, and how being rooted in a specific place carried her family through its drawn-out agony, inspired him to reconsider and return.
What makes The Little Way such an illuminating book, though, is that it doesnt just uncritically celebrate the form of community that its author rediscovered in his hometown. It also explains why he left in the first place: because being a bookish kid made him a target for bullying, because his relationship with his father was oppressive, because he wasnt as comfortable as his sister in a world of traditions, obligations, rules. Because community can imprison as well as sustain, and sometimes it needs to be escaped in order to be appreciated.
In todays society, that escape is easier than ever before. And thats a great gift to many people: If you dont have much in common with your relatives and neighbors, if youre gay or a genius (or both), if youre simply restless and footloose, the world can feel much less lonely than it would have in the past. Our society is often kinder to differences and eccentricities than past eras, and our economy rewards extraordinary talent more richly than ever before.
The problem is that as its grown easier to be remarkable and unusual, its arguably grown harder to be ordinary. To be the kind of person who doesnt want to write his own life script, or invent her own idiosyncratic career path. To enjoy the stability and comfort of inherited obligations and expectations, rather than constantly having to strike out on your own. To follow a little way rather than a path of great ambition. To be more like Ruthie Leming than her brother.
Too often, and probably increasingly, not enough Americans will have what the Lemings had a place that knew them intimately, a community to lean on, a strong network in a time of trial.
Absent such blessings, its all too understandable that some people enduring suffering and loneliness would end up looking not for help or support, but for a way to end it all.

So I found this picture, I think, a night ago and knew that I needed to post it here.
This is my Depression.
It's not knife cuts and black mascara. Eating disorders and severe anxiety problems.
my depression lies within my mind.
I often wondered if I could even call it a depression…haha…not your average cup of coffee huh?
The demons represent everything I've ever been told in my life:
"Fuck up"
"Attention Seeker"
"Forever Aloner"
"Cradle Snatcher"
Among many others.
I survived my high school life with these demons within me.
pat on the back?
No thanks.
These demons LIVE within me.
From years of being judged and misunderstood, they were born into my mind and torture me when I am alone.
Some days I say "Fuck it" and choose to be happy, knowing that they hate it when I do that.
But they never leave.
You see my friend, that's the thing about pain.
Once you've begun to ignore it, the more it DEMANDS to be felt.

Weather Averages for Malaga in March
Averages for Malaga in March
Weather lowdown
Temperatures usually begin to climb in March in Malaga but they are moderated by the Mediterranean Sea to the south, which is close to its coolest at this time of year. On average the temperature rises to a daytime maximum of 19°C and falls to an average overnight minimum of 9°C. Frosts are extremely rare and snow has not been recorded during March although it sometimes snows in the mountainous area to the north of Malaga.
March is typically quite a dry month, but it rains occasionally, with an average precipitation total of 49mm and six days per March with measurable precipitation. Occasionally, when the jet stream tracks further south than usual, such as in March 2013, an individual March can be frequently wet, but some Marches have very little rain at all. Frontal rainfall from the Atlantic is relatively uncommon during March but due to the increasing solar heating, it is quite common for heavy showers to break out during the afternoons following a dry sunny start to the day. Rainfall tends to be heavier and shorter-lived than is normal in central and northern parts of Europe.
Sunshine tends to be quite abundant during March with an average total of 218 hours per March, which equates to an average of just over 7.0 hours per day, which is in excess of half of the possible total. The average relative humidity falls to approximately 67% in March, while the average sea temperature lags the warming trend over the land and averages just 15°C, which is rather cool for swimming.
Dates for the diary
The Malaga Film Festival is held in late-March each year, arranged to promote Spanish films and it features repeated screenings of the most important Spanish film releases of the previous year. It has awards and honorary awards for the best films of the year.
The unusual El Entierro de la Sardina festival is held on the 9th March at various sites across Andalucia, including Malaga, and features parades of sardines through the streets, followed by a phase of eating and drinking and, in some cases, the festival is rounded off with a fireworks display.
Things to do
The Alcazaba, located at C Alcazabilla s/n, 29015, is arguably the most significant of Malaga's historic landmarks and features well-restored and well-maintained castle ruins. Two of its original three walls remain, and visitors pass through an ancient defensive castle entrance on the way into the main grounds. The castle boasts some gardens, palaces and courtyards and some good views around the periphery of the fortress. There is also a small archaeological museum on-site, which features exhibits of Roman pottery and statues.
Alcazaba, Malaga.
Those who fancy a massage can try the Arabic Baths at Calle Tomás de Cózar 13 in the centre of Malaga. These are well-decorated and have historic artefacts, providing pleasant historic hamann surroundings. There are dry heat and steam rooms, and cooler rooms with basins and fountains for cooling off after heating up in the steam rooms. There are many massages offered although it is strongly recommended to book in advance to ensure availability. Massages include the Turkish Massage with water, olive oil soap and a horsehair glove. The most high-end and expensive massage is a 50-minute chocolate massage. Yum!
Arabic baths, Malaga.
Hit the beach
March is not one of the better times of the year to hit the beach, as the seas are at their coolest at this time of year, but on a fine day the weather is often warm and sunny enough to enable a relaxing trip. A good nearby blue flag beach is the family-friendly Los Melilleros Beach at Benalmadena, while outside Malaga, the El Candado beach offers a good view of the coast and is protected by two water barriers, and is ideal for windsurfing.
Where to eat & drink
There are many high-quality restaurants around in Malaga. A good family-run Spanish-themed restaurant is the El Cortijillo restaurant at Avda Cadiz, La Cala de Mijas. For a British-style option, the Horizon Bar at Avenida de Antonio Machada, Benalmadena Costa is generally regarded as one of the best, which serves Irish-style breakfasts and a range of traditional pub foods including steaks and burgers.
The Cafe-Concerto Puerto Oscura at Molina Lario, 5 is a relaxing 19th-century style cafe which features live chamber music in the background. Fans of flamenco dances are unlikely to be disappointed visiting Amargo at Calle Franquelo 3 on an evening between Thursday and Sunday, when the locals perform flamenco and salsa dances and live Spanish music.
Where to stay
There are many reliable accommodation options at Malaga. The Vincci Malaga at C/ Pacifico, 44, 29004 is set on Malaga's sea front promenade and has a contemporary design and has a large continental breakfast selection, and offers 4-star accommodation. The AC Hotel Malaga Palacio by Marriott at Cortina Del Muelle 1, 29015 overlooks the old town and the cathedral, and has 4-star accommodation. A good romantic retreat is the three-star Hotel Villa Guadalupe at C/ Bandaneira 6, Urb. El Atabal, 29190.
There are many good budget options, including the 1-star Hotel Domus (reputed by some reviewers to be worthy of 2 or 3 stars) at Juan Valera 20, 29017, which serves a continental breakfast and has a terrace and bar. Malaga is also close to some good camping sites and the Campsite la Buganvilla at Marbella, 29600, offers good access to many nearby facilities and a range of amenities on-site.
Quaint accommodation in Malaga Village.

Nvidia Benchmarks GTX 480 Against Radeon 5870
Nvidia shows its tessellation muscle against ATI's Radeon HD 5870. Interestingly enough, the ATI part hangs on fairly well until Fermi pulls ahead with its hardware tessellation.
Nvidia's GF100/Fermi GPUs, the GTX 470 and GTX 480, will be officially launched later this month on March 26. Until then, we're being teased by unofficial board shots and unverified benchmarks.
Today, however, we bring to you something completely official: a benchmark demo straight from Nvidia that compares the upcoming GeForce GTX 480 and the ATI Radeon 5870.
While Nvidia doesn't put the two video cards up against our usual battery of tests, it does chart the two in an demo that leans on hardware tessellation. With tessellation demands piled on, the GeForce GTX 480 performs significantly better. Other times, however, it seems that the Radeon 5870's performance will be on par with Nvidia's upcoming high-end GPU.
Until developers take advantage of hardware accelerated tessellation however, the 5870 still gives a GTX 480 incredible competition for being over six months old.
See the video below for more.
It won't stand a chance against the 5970 by the looks of it.
24postmortemfear , March 8, 2010 10:59 PMglad i got my 2x 5770's fermi isnt looking to impressive so far
Vendor-supplied benchmarks? Awesome!
27yannifb , March 8, 2010 11:04 PMConsidering the 5xxx refresh or 6xxx series that is coming out h2, this isn't to great for nvidia.
24sarsoft , March 8, 2010 11:06 PMWow ati holds its ground. I guess i wont be changing my 5970 any time soon.
yeah but nvidia 480 will cost you a kidney
25Honis , March 8, 2010 11:07 PMcangeliniVendor-supplied benchmarks? Awesome!/sarcasm
It's nvidia, they've never lied or used smoke and mirrors before!
Closed benchmark done by the competitor without showing the actual settings before running. Yep, totally reliable.
erm now /sarcasm
23belardo , March 8, 2010 11:07 PMUntil its done by a 3rd party... who knows what the real performance is.
Besides, the newer GF cards are more for computations than 3D gaming.
0Bluescreendeath , March 8, 2010 11:08 PMDidn't this exact same article come out a week ago? O_o
21kewlx , March 8, 2010 11:09 PMFail the 5970 seems to blow them and I've heard of 6XXX series from ATI
24duk3 , March 8, 2010 11:16 PMThis is looking pretty bad.
If based off closed benchmarks we think the 480 is screwed, the 480 is really screwed.
24ColMirage , March 8, 2010 11:16 PMTHX 2249Nvidia > ATI.The end.
-5Tomtompiper , March 8, 2010 11:18 PMAt last a Benchmark! A very small and selective one but still a benchmark.
-8jurassic1024 , March 8, 2010 11:20 PMI'm pondering two 5830's, but only cuz I know the GTX 470/80 will be $$$. I'll wait for the already planned Fermi refresh later this year. The 5000 series is built off RV780. GF100 is 100% new. Remember Barcelona? Or R600?
15blackbyron , March 8, 2010 11:31 PMHow about Nvidia power consumption? I want to know that too besides performance.
9jurassic1024 , March 8, 2010 11:31 PMkewlxFail the 5970 seems to blow them and I've heard of 6XXX series from ATI
AMD has nothing new til 2011. Check their 2010 roadmap.
5jurassic1024 , March 8, 2010 11:33 PMblackbyronHow about Nvidia power consumption? I want to know that too besides performance.
GTX 470 - ~220w
GTX 480 - ~300w
What do you expect from 3 billion transistors though.
9Anonymous , March 8, 2010 11:33 PMI am waiting for 5890
9tpi2007 , March 8, 2010 11:39 PMThe one thing they don't say is how much power a GTX 480 actually consumes... if what Semiaccurate has been saying is correct, and they seem to have been right in their last articles, then the GTX 480 consumes so much power that they won't be able to build one using two chips, because that would largely exceed the 300w PCIe certification limit, which means the 5970 will have no competition.
Also, from what's being said - and shown, the GTX 480 will need a power supply with a single 12v rail giving 42A. You will clearly have to check you PSU carefully to see if it delivers those 42A over a single rail or something like 18A over two or three rails.

Limited Edition Cassette (Ltd. 100)
About a year-and-a-half ago I first met Dwight and his then girlfriend Liz while touring with Born Gold (then Gobble Gobble). It was obvious from the first handshake that I had just discovered two of my best friends in the most unlikely of places, West Virginia. It was upon this first meeting while smoking a bowl on the front porch that the idea of Crash Symbols was born. Fast forward to now; we've released around twenty tapes, our first vinyl release (both a 12" and a 7"), plus Dwight and Liz got married! The three of us couldn't be happier with everything we've accomplished in so little time. To celebrate we bring to you today the second volume of our inaugural mixtape, Dope Mountain Fuck. With just as much energy and twice the confidence, DMFv2 is a symbol of achievement for us. It features new bangers from Main Attrakionz, Oxykitten, Ghibli, changemod, Gahza, Ricky Eat Acid & more; as well as remixes from Emily Reo & Ryan Hemsworth and a Deniro Farrar cut over a previously unreleased Clams Casino beat. This is potentially our most ambitious mixtape to date and we're pretty damn proud of it. 2012 belongs to us and ours.
Head over to the Crash Symbols bandcamp to snag all twenty-five glorious tracks from Dope Mountain Fuck Vol. 2!

With months of gardening comes months of water use. During summer, in fact, municipal water requirements usually double.
It doesn't take a green thumb to save water, however. Take a look at a few things you can do now, in the autumn, to lower your costs and to protect this natural resource:
• Plant and fertilize into the fall. Cool-season grasses like fescue, rye, and bluegrass flourish in the later months, and will help to thicken up your lawn early in the springtime, reducing the amount of watering necessary as your lawn comes back to life.
• Replace struggling plants with hardier, drought-tolerant species. These substitutions will reduce your watering needs, especially during times of water scarcity.
• Consider the efficiency of your automatic irrigation system. Does the layout of the system avoid wastefully watering paved surfaces? Can you set up your system to run once or twice a week instead of every other day?

How to Profit From the Currency War
If you want to know how to profit from the currency war, just look to Japan.
That's because Japan's aggressive move to cheapen the yen in order to stimulate its own economy is working.
Of course, Money Morning's Chief Investment Strategist Keith Fitz-Gerald predicted this would happen months ago, and he was dead on.
But even if you missed the first moves in this currency war, it's not too late to profit.
To hear Keith explain how investors can still take advantage of the "race to the bottom" and profit from the global currency war, click here.Read More...
Why Your Financial Future Will Be Built Upon the Chinese Yuan
It's the Yuan's world, and the West is just living in it.
It's no coincidence that Yuan-settled trade jumped 41.3% - to nearly three trillion Yuan - in 2012, after it increased by more than 300% in 2011.
In fact, since June 2005, the Chinese Yuan has risen 24.66% against the U.S. dollar, backed in part by 1.3 billion consumers and real assets. To borrow a tech term, China's currency is the world's new "killer app."
Here's how you can make it part of your investing future… Read More...
Are You About to Lose Your Savings in the Currency War?
In the Currency War, the "end game" is a race to the bottom. Because really, under a fiat money system, there's nowhere else to go.
Unfortunately, I believe the U.S. is on the same path.
This was just confirmed by Kyle Bass, founder and principal of Hayman Capital Management, a Dallas hedge fund, who has profited handsomely from prescient calls on events from the subprime mortgage meltdown to Greek sovereign debt restructuring. In a recent discussion with a senior Obama official, Bass disclosed that he asked how the U.S. would be able to grow exports if they don't allow nominal wage deflation. The official's answer: "We're just going to kill the dollar."
There is one way to protect your net worth from all these central bank shenanigans. In my view, the answer is to own and accumulate gold.
So I suggest you ignore what central banks say, and instead do what they do... Read More...
Is Japan About to Fire the First Shots in a 1930s Style Currency War?
The great currency risk right now is not the "race to the bottom" you hear about, but a full-blown 1930s-style currency war.
This is not front-page news yet, but I have a sneaking suspicion it will be shortly...
It's going to blindside Washington and most of Europe, where central bankers, politicians, and economists fail to recognize that events from nearly 100 years ago are now primed to repeat themselves. Worse, it will devastate an entire class of investors who have put their faith in the current economic dogma of endless bailouts and money printing.
I'll explain what happened in 1931 in a moment. But first, ironically, this currency war won't start because of international problems. Instead, it will be touched off in earnest because of domestic concerns - only not American ones.
Here are three reasons I think Japan will fire the first shots. Read More...
Three Ways to Profit as China Dumps Japanese Debt
As a veteran trader, I have a tendency to look past the day's top headlines. That's why a recent Bloomberg News story - which stated that China sold a net total of 769.2 billion yen ($9.24 billion) worth of Japanese debt in September - really caught my eye.
By itself, this story probably wouldn't be a big deal. But this development is the start of an important new trend in the global currency markets. And the following three factors tell me that we should be taking a close look at why China has decided to dump Japanese debt. For instance:
- Given that the same thing happened in August, September marked the second straight month Beijing has sold more Japanese securities than it purchased.
- This marks the reversal of a seventh-month stretch of China being a net purchaser of Japanese debt.
- The two months of sales nearly wiped out the net surplus of 2.32 trillion yen ($27.86 billion) that China had amassed as a result of seven months of buying Japanese debt.
- Finally, the 2.02 trillion yen ($24.26 billion) worth of Japanese debt that China sold in August was China's single-largest monthly sale of Japan government bonds since 1995, when these statistics first started being recorded.
Let me explain....

United States To Face Attacks on Quantitative Easing Policy at G20 Summit as Currency War Rages On
The United States will go on the defense at this week's Group of 20 (G20) meeting, having to explain its quantitative easing (QE2) policy to foreign leaders who have criticized the move as a currency war tactic to weaken the dollar and damage other countries' export-driven recoveries.
China, Brazil, Germany and South Africa all have spoken out against the U.S. Federal Reserve's announcement last week that it will buy $600 billion in U.S. Treasuries through June. Finance policymakers from around the globe say the move will depress the dollar and drive capital flows to emerging markets, creating asset bubbles.
Brazil's central bank president Henrique Meirelles said the extra liquidity in the U.S. economy would cause "risks for everyone," and German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble called the Fed's move "clueless."

Currency War Carries On as G-20 Meeting Fails to Secure Specific Trade Targets
Despite securing an agreement from Group of 20 (G-20) officials to avoid weakening their currencies any further, the Obama administration failed to convince member countries to implement specific guidelines to measure compliance and monitor trade imbalances.
At a meeting last weekend in Gyeongju, South Korea, finance ministers from both developed and emerging economies agreed to try to maintain trade balances at "sustainable levels," which they left to be negotiated at a future date. They were unable to reach consensus on precise targets, as the United States proposed. G-20 members will meet again in Seoul on Nov. 11 and 12.
The G-20 was able to hammer out a deal to get China and the United States - as well as the other G-20 nations - to agree to "refrain from competitive devaluation of currencies," and to let markets set foreign-exchange values. China is widely seen as keeping its currency undervalued to boost its exports, while the United States has been accused of pursuing a weak dollar policy, also to increase its overseas shipments.

Money Morning Mailbag: China Needs to Boost Domestic Demand to Continue Economic Recovery
China released data this week showing its economy grew 9.6% in the third quarter from a year earlier, slower than years past but still significantly ahead of other countries that are struggling to stabilize their economies.
A slight dip in growth is what China wanted. Its gross domestic product (GDP) has grown on average more than 10% annually since 2006. The country's central bank lifted rates this week by 0.25 percentage points for the first time since 2007 to further cool the risk of overheating.
While working to maintain a healthy level of growth, China now has to contend with other countries devaluing their currencies to compete against a cheap yuan that is fueling an export-driven recovery. However, the whole world can't depend on exports – somewhere along the line there must be growth in demand.

Currency War: China Stands Firm on Yuan as Global Criticism Escalates
Germany and Japan are joining the U.S. in pressuring Beijing to let the yuan appreciate to prevent an international currency war from spiraling out of control. Still, China remains firm that a gradual rate change is all it will allow.
German Economy Minister Rainer Bruederle warned yesterday (Wednesday) that a trade war could erupt if China didn't float its currency for a more fair value. As the China-U.S. currency tensions have heated up, other countries are saying China's unfair trade advantage is threatening export-driven recoveries around the globe.
"We have to take care that the currency war doesn't become a trade war," Bruederle told German business paper Handelsblatt. "China bears a lot of responsibility for ensuring that it doesn't come to an escalation."

You Heard it Here First: China's Plan to Dethrone the Dollar Continues to Unfold
The U.S. dollar is on the way out as the world's top reserve currency. And as Money Morning Chief Investment Strategist Keith Fitz-Gerald predicted more than a year and a half ago, the yuan could be set to replace it.
The greenback has served as the world's benchmark reserve currency since the mid-20th century, but soaring deficits and the U.S. Federal Reserve's loose monetary policy have drained the dollar's value. Meanwhile, emerging markets - many of which are vibrant manufacturing hubs, net creditors, and have rich caches of commodities - are more fiscally sound than the United States, which has a $1.3 trillion budget deficit.
"If you look at the fundamentals of a lot of these emerging markets, they are considerably better than developed markets," Kenneth Akintewe, a Singapore-based investment manager at Aberdeen Asset Management PLC told Bloomberg in an Oct. 11 interview. "Who wants to be holding U.S. dollars at this stage?"
China, which leads the world with more than $2 trillion in currency reserves held mostly in U.S. Treasuries, is chief among the countries seeking respite from the dollar's decline. Beijing has long bemoaned the depreciation of the dollar, stating outright that it should be replaced as the world's main reserve currency.

Global Currency Wars: Three Ways to Profit From the "Race to the Bottom"
Short of sitting on the sidelines, investors can't escape the global currency wars - a "race to the bottom" shootout that has countries debasing their currencies to boost overseas sales.
But here's the only thing you need to know: As the central banks of the world slug it out in the global currency markets, individual investors who understand the currency-war strategy can reap some extraordinary gains.
Let's take a look.

International M&A Boom Fueled by Global Currency War
A binge of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) is being fueled by the global currency war, which has increased the value of emerging market currencies.
The value of worldwide M&A totaled $1.75 trillion during the first nine months of 2010, a 21% increase from comparable 2009 levels and the strongest nine month period for M&A since 2008, according to Thomson Reuters.
But mergers and acquisitions involving companies located in the emerging markets skyrocketed by 62.9% during the same period over 2009, totaling $480.7 billion.� During the first three quarters of 2010, emerging markets accounted for 27.4% of worldwide M&A volume compared to 21% during the comparable period in 2009.
And companies are showing more willingness to venture across borders to find the resources they're after.
M&A activity in deals across international borders has surged during the first nine months of 2010, totaling $723 billion accounting for 41.2% of overall M&A volume, compared to 26.1% last year at this time.

Money Morning Mailbag: Japan's Rising Yen Struggle Signals Need for Industrial Shift
The yen strengthened as much as 82.75 per dollar Wednesday, fueled by speculation that the U.S. Federal Reserve would buy more government bonds after a drop in U.S. payrolls.
The yen's rise came after the Bank of Japan tried yet again this week to devalue its currency. On Tuesday the Bank of Japan lowered the benchmark interest rate to "virtually zero," and announced a $60 billion (5 trillion yen) plan to buy government bonds - similar to the 'quantitative easing' policy employed by the U.S. Federal Reserve.
"With today's decision, the Bank of Japan paved the path for the next step," Junko Nishioka, chief economist at RBS Securities Japan Ltd. in Tokyo told Bloomberg News on Tuesday. "What will be critical will be how foreign-exchange rates move as a result," along with the impact of any additional easing by the Federal Reserve, she said.

IMF Warns of Slower Growth As Currency War Rages On
Meetings of the Group of Seven (G-7) countries in Washington this week could feature a clash of views that have sparked an international currency war even as the International Monetary Fund (IMF) warned that growth in developed economies is slowing.
The conflict represents a fundamental disagreement about how to sustain the global economic recovery among countries that prefer flexible exchange rates like the United States, and others that are resisting calls to allow its currency to appreciate, like China.
A renewed push for easier monetary policy came as the IMF warned growth in advanced economies is falling short of its forecasts.

Who are all the countries in the world in debt to?
I hear everywhere how Greece is in debt, France is in debt, the UK is in debt, Poland is in debt ....
I hear that part of these debts are so called internal debts i.g. governments owe money to their respective citizens, which boils down to us being in debt to ... ourselves. This concept in itself does not boggle my mind as much as the fact that anyone in their right mind is willing to buy it.
Part of these debts are so called external debts. Now, this can basically make sense only can anyone explain to me where does the buck stop i.e. who is the ultimate source of all that enormous credit? Since I am a kind of a redneck, can someone explain this in very simple terms steering clear of the language of economics which of course was developed for anything but explaining things?
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Craig HallFeb 14 2013: You are right to smell a rat. We do indeed owe most of the money to ourselves. Two thirds of UK Gvt debt is owed to the pension and insurance funds. More of a private Gvt playing with our money. The rest is mainly owed to China. Mainly on the back of a cheap labour force.
The Capitalists or the 1% are desperate to maintain this false debt, it's good for them, it works rather well because we do all the work.
We all need a sense of purpose in life and to be able to enjoy the fruits of our labour. There are currently 200 million unemployed around the world, not much purpose for them.

Well I finally got around to doing this recipe from November 2009. I decided to try and can up these pickles. I had to make a few adaptations to fit what was on hand but the recipe sounded intriguing. I made the pickles using lemon cucumbers because that's what was in the garden. No limes so I used lemons for the juice. I considerably reduced the salt, too, by 2/3rds. The recipe made enough brine to do 3 pints. The pickles are great on sandwiches! Very spicy!

UNDATED (WSAU-Wheeler News) For the first time, there's evidence of an Asian carp in the Wisconsin waters of Lake Michigan. A new study by Notre Dame and the Nature Conservancy turned up D-N-A for the bloated invasive carp at Sturgeon Bay, near Potawatomi State Park in Door County.
The D-N-A was found in a water sample taken at the end of May. It was not screened until this fall, when a comprehensive survey was conducted in search of a different type of invasive species. It was the only positive sample among 282 taken from the Wisconsin portion of Lake Michigan, as part of a larger invasive fish survey by Notre Dame researchers and government crews. About 50 of those samples came from the Sturgeon Bay area.
State natural resource officials plan to do more testing in the area next week -- and for now, at least, they say there's no reason to panic. The D-N-R's Bob Wakeman says his agency needs to clarify what the new discovery really means. Dozens of water samples in the Chicago area have turned up D-N-A for Asian carp, which gobble up the food that native fish in the Great Lakes rely on.
