Approximately one year after introduction on the market of the 7-Series facelift, the 7-series continues their successful career in an intensified competition surrounding field in the segment of the luxury sedans. In the first half-year of 2006 - comparing to the period of the last year - the number of the 7-Series delivered to the customers increased with 26%. So it might be that the current model is the most successful 7-Series in the BMWS history. After 4 years and a half since the introduction on the market already 235000 luxury sedans have been sold.
Product's properties of the 7-Series, in particular regarding the control philosophy and elements of the Design language, appear today in many vehicles of the upper class. Five years ago they were still applied as very progressive and the public did not accept them totally. Today they are accepted as natural. The strategic product decisions proved as successful.
In order to increase the attractiveness of the 7-Series again, BMW offers starting from autumn 2006 four editions with exclusive paint and pad combinations, light alloy wheels and particularly luxurious interior equipment. Four editions will be available.
From the outside the four editions are to be recognized by the two exclusive edition lacquer finishes "carbon-black metallic" and "Stratusgrau metallic". They draw out by a pronounced color brilliance which is produced depending by the viewing angle.
The special editions have a new 19" light alloy wheels with the "star spoke 231"Design.
In the interior the editions captivate by extended leather equipment available in the colors "gold-brown" and "brightly". The surface of the leather is soft and supple. Leather merino is submitted of no additional surface treatment - like an applying of dye films. Only skins with perfect and intact surface can be used for the production. The leather equipment leather merino lends to the vehicle interior a natural, particularly exclusive Ambient.
Interior with noble materials, as well as qualitatively and colored co-ordinate details
The exclusive character of the editions is underlined in the interior by many additional details. Thus the vehicles have a sport leather steering wheel with bicolor steering wheel ring, co-ordinate with the pad color.
A further component of the four "Special edition exclusive one" is a roof sky. This forms a harmonious contrast for pad equipment.
The four editions will go on sale starting this autumn.

As Audi shows off the new R18 e-tron Quattro, it's proving that history can be fun. In a new video, the automaker traces the origins of its 2012 Le Mans entrant back to the original Quattro that abused the space-time continuum in Group B rallying.
This isn't exactly the true return of Quattro, however, since four-wheel drive isn't allowed in LMP1. However, according to Le Mans rules you can have "500kJ (approximately 70bhp) of stored energy to be transferred to the wheels between two braking 'events at speeds above 120km/h (75mph)."
That's where the R18 e-tron's regenerative braking steps up, its flywheel unleashing stored energy at the front axle. Check it out in the video after the jump.

Builders and Developers
Thirty-six communities in BC have adopted the Provincial Solar Ready Regulation
The regulation requires all new single family homes to be built to accommodate future installs of solar hot water systems for water heating.
A solar-ready home is one that has been designed and constructed to maximize the solar potential and to accommodate easy installation of the solar system. Benefits of solar ready homes include easier install of solar hot water system, less cost to install systems down the road, added re-sale potential of homes and increased energy efficiency and reduction of GHGs.
To read more visit our Regulations and Government Policies page. You can also read about the BC Building Solar Regulation here.
Advantages of SHW on New Homes
Solar hot water will help to differentiate proactive builders in a crowded market. Some advantages of solar hot water in new homes are:
- Unique 'green' marketing opportunity and selling feature
- Greatly reduced monthly operating costs for homeowner
- Extended life on traditional water heaters
- Increased re-sale value now and into the future
- Reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and reduced carbon footprint
- Protection from rising energy prices and security from power outages
The Built Green Checklist awards the following points:
* Ready homes (2 points). This involves a small additional cost of about $300, and the solar hot water collectors can be installed at a later date. This is considerably cheaper than installing solar hot water once a home has been built. You can also read here about the optional solar hot water ready requirements on single family homes, put forth by the province of BC.
*A fully commissioned solar water heating system, sized for 30% of DHW load (4 points) 50% (6 Points) or 80% (8 points).
Find out more about Built Green BC at www.builtgreen.ca
Easy 2-Step Installation Process
Step 1: Do a Self-Assessment
To be suitable for solar hot water, new homes should incorporate these design criteria:
- Have at least 6 square meters of south-facing roof space.
- Ensure no shade or limited shade from 10am – 4pm on the south-facing part of the roof.
- May need additional space may next to the conventional hot water tank for an additional solar storage tank.
Builders and developers should also check with their local building officials about permits and local requirements for solar hot water installations.
Step 2: Choose an Installer
SolarBC recommends choosing a Canadian Solar Industries Association (CanSIA) certified solar hot water installer to advise on the best size and model of solar hot water system for your house and to install the system. SolarBC does not monitor the installations of these installers and does not warranty the performance of any of the installers in the CanSIA Installers Directory found here. SolarBC recommends that builders and developers note the Best Practice Guidelines provided for Choosing an Installer and do the necessary due diligence to ensure that a qualified installer is used for the installation.

Hi Guy's,
I'm changing my photoshop editing system from the PC to a Mac, have a question regarding the Apple monitor itself.
Anybody have any information about calibrating "ICC Profiling" the Apple cinema display 23"
Other than the basic controls such as brightness and contrast, are there any advanced settings available for use with a hardware calibrator for colour profiling for accurate colour consistency ?
I'm familiar with using a CRT with the Spyder calibrator, just wandering what advanced controls are available when using the Mac system..
Regards. Paul.

Quote: Hi Guy's,
I'm changing my photoshop editing system from the PC to a Mac,.
Think VERY carefully before doing that. Apple computers do have some advantages in the eyes of some but they are probably far outweighed by the negatives.
If you are currently using a CRT monitor, then obviously an upgrade is very long overdue - but think about a PC with a top quality modern monitor.
Careful Paul,
Often these threads turn into a rant about how much folk hate Mac's and how anyone buying one has more money than sense. Personally, I made the switch last year and I am over the moon - indeed I get frustrated every time I have to use my windows machine at work. It's not necessarily that one is better than the other - but for me the Mac OS is just a nicer place to be. Subjective I know, but there you have it.
This thread has come up before - so a quick forum search may be in order. I am no expert on the issues raised, but I have used successfully my old Spyder 2 with out problems. The gloss screen could be a pain if you don't place the computer carefully - so before you buy give some thought as to where its going to live. I have the 27" screen and it is great to work with.
Alos remember that if you are a student or work in education you MAY be eligible for educational discount if you buy from an Apple store rather than a 3rd party retailer.
Careful Paul
Many people passionately believe Apple products to be overpriced gloss and as a result these threads can become quite heated. Like those iMacs with all the guts in the monitor which get very hot and break.
Mac fan bois will often get in first with a warning as they know that it's hard to defend wasting so much money on a Mac and that people will attack those foolish enough to fall prey to the slick marketing
Mac monitors are glossy and this makes them trickier to calibrate than a matte monitor. It also makes them less suitable for photo editing than a matte monitor. Bear that in mind.
Oh dear ......we're at it again! It's always amazing how people leap on the forums trying to bash the Mac users instead of answering the question asked by the poster.
For their information, the 23" cinema display is a matt screen...not glossy .
Hi does your question not depend on the calibration device/software you are using rather than the OS? Sorry my advice would be to go to the FAQ section of the calibration device and look up its advice. Good luck to the OP on getting a fix. To my knowledge it is as simple for the user as you say. On all the ones I have used it has a description of the settings to drive the screen to in terms of brightness and contrast (if you have those controls), then answer the questions the calibration software asks, attached the calibration device and go have a coffee, (other beverages are suitable but sever boredom may set in if you sit and watch it) (Oh and if you have coffee make certain its Java based, flash coffees do not work on Mac's, but Late's do)
Good luck.
Quote: It's always amazing how people leap on the forums trying to bash the Mac users instead of answering the question asked by the poster.
It always amazes you? Really?
I'm not amazed by it at all, I'm surprised that you aren't used to it by now. I'm used to Mac advocates like you posting to defend the Mac instead of answering the question asked by the poster.
Quote: I'm not amazed by it at all, I'm surprised that you aren't used to it now.
Sadly I am used to it, but still it disappoints me that anyone would think that its ok. I'm rapidly coming to the conclusion that contributing to threads like this is just a waste of my time - sad as it means I can't learn from them.
Quote: still it disappoints me that anyone would think that its ok
You're right, not only is it disappointing but it's a disgrace that someone would mention switching from one system to another and that anyone would then would dare to post their opinion about those systems. It's not a forum.
Quote: Other than the basic controls such as brightness and contrast, are there any advanced settings available for use with a hardware calibrator for colour profiling for accurate colour consistency ?
It's helpful to separate the subjects of calibration and profiling when thinking on this subject, as the two are related, but different operations. Calibration settings get tagged onto colour profiles and load at start-up, whilst the profile itself needs a compliant piece of software before it can function.
Generally speaking in calibration it's best to keep tweaking of onscreen controls to a minimum, as all controls in an LCD monitor other than brightness/luminosity (black point) are digital adjustments, and as such are liable to have a detrimental effect on monitor performance. Monitor purists tend to adjust nothing other than brightness, leaving gamma and white point settings at native, but still the default settings in calibration software aren't a bad place to start (usually 2.2 gamma, 120cd/m² luminosity, 6500K white point).
These ideas apply as much to a Mac display as any other. You possibly need Spyder 3 Pro minimum for an Apple Cinema display. I'm not sure that earlier versions coped very well with LED backlighting, and the more basic Spyder packages have tended to be too limited in their functionality (you need to be able to set a target luminance, for instance).
God there's some misguided and inaccurate anti Mac rubbish on here.
Before I get flamed by the PC mob, I'm a graphic designer by trade so monitor calibration to press fidelity is vital in my trade.
I have to have a accurately calibrated monitor as of right or I'm in the shyt.
I use a top of the range 27'' Mac monitor which has a gloss finish. The image quality is superb.
If you are at all concerned about colour fidelity, the first thing to do is to work in lower ambient light, irrespective of whether you have a matt or gloss monitor.
1. Get a good third party monitor calibration system.
2. Obtain the relevant paper profiles.
3. Perform test prints to check screen to print fidelity.
This is standard irrespective whether Mac or PC
If you want to go Mac, just go to an Apple store and try one for yourself.
Is there an advantage to using a MAC over a PC? Other than some people preferring the interface, but from a technical point of view does a MAC perform better? What makes it worth the extra money? I used to own a MAC and like them but use a PC now basically because I can afford one. I would have a MAC again if I had money to spare but it would be for aesthetic reasons not technical ones.

My favourite black pants
The perfect pair of black pants. It's like the holy grail of fashion, isn't it - that and finding the perfect pair of jeans. Sometimes it can feel like mission impossible. Does such a thing truly exist?
Now, I don't know about you, but it feels like my own personal search for the holy grail has gone on for years. Most of the time it ends up with tears in change rooms and whimpers of "Nagdammit! My bum DOES look big in these!" Or, perversely, you find a pair that might just fit the bill, and then have a look at the price tag, which means that even if the pants come close to perfect, the price you must pay doesn't, so back on the rack they go. And so the search would go on. Every where you looked, black pants would dangle on their hangers catching your eye but there was always something wrong: legs too long, legs too wide, legs to short, waist too high, seat too baggy, fabric too nasty, cut too fugly. You find yourself back at home wearing your old faithful pair that have been washed and worn too many times and is starting to look beyond sad, but what choice do you have? The new perfect pair still eludes you.
If you've been in this situation, and feel like your search will never come to an end then rejoice, dear friends, rejoice! For I, Jorth, have gone boldly into black pant territory where many fear to tread, and have found the perfect pair indeed!
Ok, ok - so the caveat is that you'll have to make them yourself. But trust me - the best part about these pants is that they were a cinch, an absolute cinch to whip up. Hoorah!
Project Details
Pattern: #105 from Burda Style Magazine 6/2010
Fabric: 1.5m of "Something Black", a luscious cotton/viscose blend from Tessuti Fabrics. This fabric was so lovely to work with.
Notions: 22cm invisible zip, and interfacing for the waist band
Just in case you haven't guessed, I love these pants! They are super comfy to wear, and the weight is perfect for summer. I made mine up in size 36 without the side seam allowances, which means that they sit loosely on my waist, which is exactly how I like my summer pants to be. The fabric has a lovely sheen to it, which instantly makes the pants look quite dressy, particularly with the pleat details. I'm planning another pair for winter, but in a wool blend.
Besides the seam allowances, the only other alteration I made was to straighten and lengthen the leg. The original pattern calls for a curved hem on the pant going along the inside leg seam, but aesthetically that didn't appeal, so I made mine straight instead.

Experience The James: Lynchburg's Pathway to the World
Please visit Experience The James for more information!
Watch Our New Commercial!
Open at the Lynchburg Museum!
Experience the James: Lynchburg's Pathway to the World is an 18-month exploration of the myriad ways the James River intersects with Lynchburg's history, culture, recreation, and civic identity. The centerpiece of the experience is an exhibit at the Lynchburg Museum, 901 Court Street, which will focus on the historical impact of the James on our community. The exhibit is open now and closes on December 31, 2015.
Objects on display will include prehistoric tools, ceramics, tobacco-related items, and items recovered from sunken vessels that plied the river and canals. Some of the earliest bricks made in North America, fishhooks, Native American trade goods, food remains, and pottery are included from recent excavations in Jamestown forts. Modern and historic art, pirates, historic photographs, war, and floods are all part of the story, as is the damage done by man to the river and efforts to restore water quality and native species.
Experience the James has generated a partnership among the Lynchburg Museum System, Amazement Square, Lynch's Landing, Lynchburg Parks and Recreation, Lynchburg Water Resources, discoverLynchburg, the James River Association, and the Virginia Canals and Navigations Society. In addition to the exhibit, the museum and its partners will be offering opportunities to experience the James as it is today.
Programs will include workshops about water quality, children's environmental education programs, and volunteer opportunities to help clean up the James with the March on Litter. Speakers throughout the year will offer perspectives on early explorations of the James, memorable disasters, flora and fauna of the river, Civil War battles on the James, and more.

The budget deal for tax hikes on America's upper crust sets the bar far higher than the previous $250,000.
The fiscal cliff deal didn't solve all the nation's economic problems, but it did answer one pressing question from the debates that preceded it: Who, exactly, are "the rich"?
The answer, apparently, is an individual earning at least $400,000 a year or couples making at least $450,000. They're the only folks who qualify for the deal's new 39.6% tax bracket, and they easily clear the $325,000 bar the government uses to separate the top 1% of income owners from the unwashed plebes below.
They're also somewhat wealthier than the demographic President Barack Obama had in mind when he suggested Monday that raising taxes on "the wealthiest 2% of Americans" could help reduce the deficit. Back then, policymakers still seemed to agree that $250,000 in income was the dividing line between rich and poor. By raising the bar, Congress just cut off 28% of the income that could have been taxed at higher rates.
Sure, people making more $250,000 still account for just under 2% of all tax filers, or about 2.85 million households, according to the Tax Policy Center. But what's the use of being "elite" if 2.85 million others are being elite right alongside you?
Clearly something needed to separate the deep-pocketed swells tacking their sloops toward Newport from the nouveau riche bombing across Lake Washington on their cigarette boats. After all, there are fewer than 1 million households with annual incomes of $500,000 or more nationwide. They're 0.6% of all taxpayers and, by jove, should get some sort of special recognition for it.
The folks below that bar don't seem to disagree. Ipsos Mendelsohn earlier this year asked affluent Americans earning $100,000 or more annually to define who they felt was in the "1%" targeted by Occupy Wall Street. On average, they cited people making at least $1.4 million a year.
According to Ipsos, those $100,000-plus households are in the top 20% to 25% of earners, but think they're in the 38th percentile. Meanwhile, super-affluent households making $250,000 a year or more in the top 2% of earners think they're in the 16th percentile.
"That's a big difference from 2006 or 2007, when everyone kind of overestimated how wealthy they were, or at least they felt like they were going to get rich, so started spending according to their perceptions," Steve Kraus, chief insights officer in the Audience Measurement Group at IpsosCT, told Ad Age. "Today, I think it's more the opposite pattern."
They may not feel 1% rich, but the $250,000-and-above earners who just dodged a tax hike are still fairly confident that they're doing better than most. According to a Gallup poll released in late 2011, it would take a median of just $150,000 a year in income for most Americans to consider themselves rich. While those making less than $50,000 a year would make do with $100,000 a year, college graduates, city dwellers, inner suburbanites and those already making $100,000 would feel flush with between $200,000 and $250,000 a year.
That's some cute schoolyard daydreaming compared to how government's newly defined "rich" view personal finance. Back in June, Fidelity surveyed 1,000 millionaires with an average of $3 million in worth and asked what it would take to make them wealthy. The answer? About $5 million in investable assets, which is down roughly a third from the $7.5 million they felt they needed a few years back.
Increased income taxes for the $450,000-plus crowd left a lot of expendable income on the table and did little to address inheritance, capital gains and other income streams that keep the top bracket on top. But wringing some more cash out of the American elite gets a bit easier when both sides are comfortable with that club's admission price.
More on Money Now
Tax Laws should be made simple, easy to understand across the board. Cut the red tape between party lines. Here is what I do, if I were elected to office:
Increase minimum wage from $ 8.50 (@18 Yrs) to $ 15.50 (@ 25 yrs. and up) pro-rate it in between. No one under 16 Yrs of age should be allowed to work. Between 16 to 18 Yrs of age, they should not pay any taxes, regardless. Taxes should be a flat rate of 10% at age 18 to 20 % when they reach 25 Yrs, provided their income is min. $30,000 ($ 65,000 family income).
Above $65,000 family income everyone should pay a flat rate of 25%. until it becomes $250,000 (single) and $ 300,000 (family) and cap it @ 30% flat rate, regardless how they make it.
This is the land of opportunity we should encourage americans to make money, get rich, invest in our infrastructure, create opportunity for our citizenry of all ages. Why do we want to penalize american people from making money? provided the rich pay there share of the taxes? The problem is our tax code is so complex, there are many loop holes, so the person making a 20 million dollars in capitol gains can get away with just 15% (Now 20%). Tax them with a flat tax, irrespective of how they make the money. More revenue for the Govt. Let the rich make money, give the new rich a break from 39,6% to 30%. Let them spend it in the economy instead of pulling out their investments to invest oversees. Win-win situation for all.
Congress can concentrate on more pressing issues. Get rid of the loop holes, keep it simple.
Don't believe in redistribution of wealth? Do a little research and discover there has been a redistribution of wealth going on for many years, except the distribution is going TO the rich, and FROM the 98%. Not much chance of rectifying the problem as long as voters prop up this charade.
Since warren Buffett only pays himself a salary of $100,000.00 does that mean he only gets taxed on his billions in dividends at the 15% rate.
We concentrate so much on taxing the working stiff that even at $500,000 a year make chump change compared to the con men who make billions and pay less taxes because their accountant knows how to game the system.
The real rich pay themselves in dividends and get taxed at 15% while I am putting 2 kids through college at a price of over $70,000 a year and being told I am rich because my wife and I have combined income of over $250.00
People have irrational views of money and these discussions are ridiculous. 100k income makes you greedy and rich? 100k in some areas of the country is barely enough to scrape by and that doesn't take into account kids or outrageous educational costs. I live in the midwest and 100k here is way more than I need to live comfortably as a single man, but add a couple kids into the mix and how much education will cost in 20 years and it doesn't measure up anymore.
The fact of the matter is that people without money envy those with it, across the board. It doesn't matter if you talk about 50k, 100k, 500k or several million a year. The people who don't make that much will always think those above them don't deserve it but they do. Life is hard for EVERYONE. Even the very rich have problems they have to deal with, it isn't all cocktail parties and sandy beaches. If you think you deserve more money, do something about it. This country wasn't built on handouts and entitlement, it is the land of the free and the home of opportunity. New flash: you create your own opportunity, it won't ever find you.
If I can get myself into a 250k a year job you can be damn sure I will. I will have worked incredibly hard and dealt with a tremendous amount of adversity regardless of whether I can ever get to that income level...
Personally, I do not sympathize with any one the list. Sorry, not being bias. For one, I am unemployed and have been unemployed for 7 years. I am Iraq war veteran (two tours) and former Marine and soon to be former National Guard solider. I cannot enlist in active duty due to service injury and who knows when VA payments will kick in(only $300). I am told just come back later. Furthermore, I was laid off from my job in 2007 and I have not found any more work since. Furthermore, my wife left me, I lost my home, my credit is destroyed due to home and I just exhausted all of my only income.(GI Bill) I know that married couples seem like they are getting mess with by the government .However, you know kids are a choice, a house is choice, extras things outside of food is choice. I will soon be living on the streets once this month ends. So I am sorry if I do not feel sorry for everyone. Yes, I am attending college but college is not a job. I think the best thing for me to do is leave the US and try finding new life in another country. I do not want to be living on the streets and eating at soup kitchens. I feel bad to make this choice because I born and raised in the US. Plus, I risked my life for this country. Then, I get look down among as second-class citizen due to the need to live on assistance. Well, in my case, I refuse to stay around to be labeled as burden. I think everyone should be happy if food is available and a place to call home and quit complaining. In reality, there are those who have it worst.

Thornton Township High School District 205 has a new person in the role of superintendent, even though the old official still has two years remaining on his contract.
The district Friday used its website to say John Arrington is now the acting superintendent for the district, which oversees Thornton High School in Harvey, Thornridge High School in Dolton and Thornwood High School in South Holland.
Arrington replaces Superintendent John Thomas, who was under contract through 2015.
Attempts to reach Thomas for comment were not successful.
Thomas had been hired away from the Carver Military Academy of Chicago in June 2012, following a nine-month search that occurred after longtime Superintendent Kamala Buckner resigned in 2011.
School Board President Kenneth Williams was unavailable Friday to comment on the situation, but Thomas' removal by the School Board comes at a time when officials are trying to remove Williams from his post.
They say Williams' criminal conviction from 1985 in Indiana makes him ineligible under Illinois law to serve on a School Board, even though he was elected by voters in 2009 and 2013 and gained more votes than anyone else in this year's election cycle. Williams was convicted of forgery and served 22 months of a five-year prison term.
Williams' case comes up Wednesday at the Daley Center Courthouse in Chicago.
Associate Judge Rita Novak is scheduled to hear arguments from attorneys for Williams and for the state's attorney's office, which has been trying to remove Williams since December. She has said previously she will rule on Williams' case as soon as possible after hearing arguments.
As for Arrington, he is not new to District 205. He has been human resources director since 2007 and he retains that title and those duties in addition to his superintendent title, according to the district's website.
Born in Dixmoor and a longtime Harvey resident, Arrington has a master's degree in public administration from the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University. He did undergraduate study at Chicago State University, and work toward a doctoral degree at Western Illinois University in Macomb, according to the District 205 website.
He served during the 1990s as an alderman in Harvey, and in 2004 tried to become the Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate seat from Illinois when GOP nominee Jack Ryan stepped down, according to the Our Campaigns website. Arrington also ran for the GOP nomination for the Senate in 2010, ultimately taking 2.8 percent of the primary election vote, according to the Illinois State Board of Elections.

Find & share great dishes, not just restaurants.
Find whatever you're craving, see what's good at any restaurant and learn what foodspotters, friends and experts love wherever you go.
— Meng · New York Food Tour · created almost 3 years ago
This is the official spotting guide to Foodspotting's first ever dumpling "waddle" (since we're too well-fed from Thanksgiving last week to crawl).
Couldn't make it on the crawl? Here's our waddle itinerary to help you master this guide:
There are 1-2-3 reasons why we're celebrating with an eatup on 12/3:
1) It's 12/3 12:30 — the next best cosmic alignment after 11/11/11 11:11:11
2) We're nomming 1^2+3 types of dumplings: fried, boiled, steamed, and soup dumplings!
3) Waddling off that 12.3 pounds from your TurBaconEpic Thanksgiving the week before.
Waddling best practices:
- Even though there are amazing fried, boiled, steamed, and soup in all neighborhoods and boroughs of NYC, we're going to focus on Chinatown in Manhattan.
- We'll be doing a lot of walking, so shelve those Louboutins and take out those Vibram Five Fingers (or any other preferred athletic footwear)
- Wear layers (hopefully we'll get some cardio done between stops, but standing outside to eat can get chilly)
- Please bring cash (most places won't take credit cards, so cash is dumpling king)
- Bring a camera (or other preferred Foodspotting device) and get ready to waddle to dumpling heaven!

A television ad for a quit-smoking drug, made through a global pharmaceutical company, said that it might take six occasions to stop smoking. What they were actually saying is that they're conditioning you to neglect and keep using their product before you got so frustrated that you cease in spite of the famed drugs.
Recent government cease advertising in Australia present smokers experience encouraged this time they believe they're getting closer to stopping. They're urged to return to their own physician for one more dose of whatever did not assist them in prior attempts.
After years of helping customers to stop I am always surprised and dismayed to see smokers being mislead with guarantees of succeeding, utilizing exactly the same procedures that have frequently failed them time and time again.
Each failure can further lower your belief you could cease. So let us simply forget about everything you've heard about nicotine and all of your links, put aside all of your previous failures, let all the others anxieties and beliefs float from you, and remember something.
Other links such as with java in the morning to begin, or with friends to unwind, as well as whenever you're stressed, are merely mental link. Maybe you discovered that you're using exactly the same drug, nicotine to assist with quite distinct scenarios. How can be this case, does nicotine have magical powers to relax and similarly excite on-demand?
The quick reply is that it really will not. You just established strong emotional bonds to cigarettes in various ways, at various times and in various locations.
For this reason that getting some pharmaceutical, stop smoking drug which attempts to alter your brain chemistry, but largely succeeds in giving you nightmares, an occasional heart-attack and in rare instances a propensity to suicide, is really a waste of your time, your attempt as well as your mental power.
Any smoker can easily realize the cigarettes daily they have are linked to some matter, area, man, time or action. Smoking with java, while driving or at specific times like morning tea break or begin relaxing and whenever you get home.
The difficulty is the fact that once the basic truth is the fact that not many individuals are chemically addicted to Nicotine smoking is still treated like a drug habit, but rather they will have an extremely strong mental routine.
It's possible for you to quit, and you'll quit. By using cease smoking Lift Vapor e-cigarettes you'll begin to become free from the custom of smoking for the remainder of your whole life.

Getting started with CouchDB
Apache CouchDB is one of a new breed of database management systems. These new systems are known as NoSQL. NoSQL is a buzz word term first popularized in early 2009 to describe a database that is non-SQL… NoSQL is a term for a loosely defined class of non-relational data stores that break with a long history of relational databases and ACID guarantees. Data stores that fall under this term may not require fixed table schemas.
The first reason I am quickly growing to love CouchDB, and hence decided to write this post is due to the fact that it is a document-oriented DB, rather then storing content into set tables, it allows us to store information, in a manor that is as flexible as an array.
For example here's a sample document:
FirstName="Bob", Address="5 Oak St.", Hobby="sailing".
However another document could have this data:
FirstName="Jonathan", Address="

Here are six unexciting but necessary living expenses, with some techniques to minimize them.
Occasionally, my wife would come visit me next to my grill, look at my broken down charcoal starter and tell me I should get a new one. I would just shake my head, refusing to shell out $15 for a new one. I didn't care how ugly my chimney was, or how nonfunctional it appeared.
I shared the questions with my husband and he stopped cold in this tracks. What were we thinking? We were very nearly on the verge of blowing our budget big time with absolutely no regrets - just thoughts of fun, fun, fun! We decided to sleep on this and see how we felt tomorrow.
Here are three ways I use my smart phone to keep me on budget, and get the most for my money.
My daughter had used the time to search the internet and had managed to match our cat's symptoms to a serious feline disease. When my wife and I got home, our daughter was very upset which resulted in my wife also becoming quite upset about the state of our cat. A few phone calls later, we were off to the vet.
We were planning to throw some Mahi Mahi and asparagus on grill, and had more than enough to share with our friends. They responded via text and said they already had a tri tip roast on the grill, and were making mashed red potatoes as a side. We suggested combining dinners at our house.
One of our favorite things to do is get dressed up and have dinner at a nice restaurant. We are able to do this just as we have done everything since retirement - by looking at things differently and thinking out of the box.
I showed Vonnie, and we both shook our heads. We both knew that in years past, we would have been forced to overpay, and buy the $60 backpack because we were in one of the stores for which we had a store credit card.
We don't feel we are doing without or that we are not enjoying life. Instead, choosing what is really important and saving our money for it has become an imaginative, fun challenge. We aren't living the life we had before retirement; we are enjoying a totally new way of thinking and living.
Before committing to one or the other, I did a little price comparison to see which would be the better choice.
Credit card balance protection insurance comes in a few different varieties; depending on the kind you have, it could pay out in the event of an involuntary job loss, disability, critical illness, or death.
I didn't think I could ever trust myself to keep from falling back into the trap of revolving credit by paying the balance in full each month. A lack of communication with my wife, and a sense of entitlement resulted in credit card abuse resulting in $109,000 of credit card debt.
How do you decide what to stockpile? I looked at our needs and went from there. Canned goods are very easy to stockpile because there is usually a sale on canned goods weekly. When something was on sale that we ate and liked such as green beans; instead of buying the sale quantity, I doubled and sometimes tripled what I bought. Pay close attention to the outdates of whatever you buy. I'm buying canned goods with 2 to 3 years forward outdates.
Going through an intense debt elimination program, it's easy to make it the focus of your life. It's easy to think that working on your relationship is something that will have to wait until you get your financial footing back.
My husband and I are retired and living on a fixed income and have tried many things to supplement our finances. Some ideas have worked and some have not. Some have created a great deal of "fast cash" and others have only generated a small amount.
Between writing, email, surfing the internet and a whole basket of other activities, I use my computer a lot. But I noticed that I hardly EVER use the speakers. So infrequently that I'm kicking myself for not buying the less expensive speakers, or just plugging in headphones I already own when sound was required.
There are quite a few retailers that do promotions similar to Old Navy's Super Cash. Pay attention to what they give you, and what the fine print says. Otherwise, you might just find out the hard way that two 10s don't equal 20.
Young males are the highest risk category for having an accident, so I wasn't looking forward to seeing what having my son become a driver would do to our insurance rates. But, I knew it needed to be done so we called up our agent and had him gently tell us the damage.
Life insurance eases the burden of the people who survive you. It's not a windfall; even policies for hundreds of thousands of dollars are usually calculated precisely. (We'll explore how shortly).
It's the phrase that popped into my head recently when I came across a fantastic sale on charcoal. Twin packs of grill fuel shrink wrapped together for the usual price of a single bag. It's a phrase that maybe you've used once or twice as well.
Before you start making piles of 10 in your shopping cart, be sure you know the rules. Can you get the sale price ($1.00 per item) if you don't want 10? Can you combine different items to total 10 and get them for $10.00? I have shopped at stores where they just won't allow this and require that you buy 10 of the same item to get the $1.00 each price.
I used to say I didn't care at all about my credit score. I've posted countless times to threads in the forums stating that I just pay my bills on time and let my score take care of itself. Then, earlier this year, my wife and I walked through the doors of our bank and started the process of trying to refinance our mortgage.
I'm usually a fairly passive guy in these kinds of situations, and would have just accepted what the cashier said, and would have made a point to use the second coupon the next time we were at the mall.
Since we completed our program, we've working through a list of "to dos" to solidify our financial well-being.
Rebates are a form of advertisement for some companies. Companies offer rebates to try to entice you into buying a specific product. In return for buying the product, they will send you a reward, usually a check or a free product coupon.

Zinfandel is rich, bold and ready for just about anything.
Zinfandel lovers are a particular breed. By and large, "Zin-heads" are not tucked away in a dark corner. Zin-heads tend to revel at the boisterous table smack dab in the middle of the room. They're the ones having a great time and wanting you to join the fun! Indeed, a juicy red Zinfandel is practically a party in a wine glass.
Although it is thought to be related to the native Italian Primitivo grape, Zinfandel is quintessential California. It is the most widely planted red grape in the state, and more of it is planted in California than anywhere else in the world. Much of it is used to make white Zinfandel, a slightly sweet blush wine. It is also sometimes used as a blending grape in other red wines.
But it is the ultra-ripe, intensely flavored red Zinfandel wines that have created the craze. They have a lush richness that is just plain hard to resist.
Zinfandel can be bright and medium-bodied or jammy and decadent. Either way, Zin's raspberry, strawberry, blueberry, cherry, chocolate and spicy black pepper flavors are positively delicious.
One of the reasons Zinfandel is so much fun is that it's not a wine that wants to be overanalyzed. No need to stare off into the distance as you try to discern the nuances of a vintage or the oak regimen of the winemaker. These are slurpably bold, richly flavored wines.
Zin's richness is something to keep in mind when pairing it with foods—it will simply overwhelm anything delicate or subtle. Zinfandel is just about the best burger wine in the world. It goes well with any rich and meaty dish. If you have a favorite pot roast recipe or are wondering what to pair with a crockpot stew, look no further than the Zinfandel section. The rich, lush red berry and spicy pepper kick will be the best "sauce" you can imagine.
The same goes for grilled foods. That smoky, charred flavor just sings when contrasted with the jammy richness of a Zin.
Zinfandel's richness and body can also tame the flame in spicy, peppery, chile-spiked food. From Tex-Mex to Cajun potato wedges and spicy sausages, Zinfandel is a great pairing for your flavorful favorites.
Buying Tip: California's Dry Creek Valley (a sub-region of Sonoma) and the Sierra Foothills (part of Amador County) are often thought to offer outstanding Zins

My Ohio season
I've had a good season so far, 3 nice corn fed does. One with the bow and 2 with the shotgun. My landowner and her farmer are thrilled! And my freezer is full and a few needy families have some meat in their freezer, too. I'm tagged out for zone B, but if my butt thaws out anytime soon I may go to zone A and try for a buck.
Plus, I took a young buck in GA.
Sorry, no pics.:(
What no pics? ;) 3 deer in one season is nice! I have yet to do that. Harvest numbers have been down so far this year and really I haven't seen a whole lot.
Congrats Deb. You should have some great eating with those cornfed deer in your freezer.

This is a beautiful modernised hotel in lovely grounds but it is outside the village. There is no food of any kind other than a light breakfast & the staff didn't seem particularly interested in finding a restaurant for us. One evening we EVENTUALLY found a restaurant 5km away but without the hotel's help.

Summer 2014 Programs
Spain & Morocco | Brazil | Netherlands | Hong Kong | Trinidad & Tobago
The Global Sustainability Studies Program enables students to apply classroom learning in a global context and build problem-solving skills that are critical in an ever-evolving field. These summer study abroad programs are led by School of Sustainability faculty members, and program cohorts are limited to small groups of 15-20 students to maximize the intercultural learning experience.
Scholarship funding is available to enable all motivated and eligible Sustainability students to have this crucial experience.
Last summer, 85 students, including graduates and undergraduates, participated in our four summer programs: Dubai, Spain/Morocco, Ecuador and Washington DC/London. Over $350,000 in scholarships were awarded to these students for their summer studies.
Information Sessions:
Spain and Morocco
Sustainable Development across the Mediterranean
May 17 to June 10*
3 credit hours (SOS 494 or SOS 598)
Dr. Mary Jane Parmentier
Energy problems are global in nature, but solutions are not always easy or equitable. Spain and Morocco share the only current power line link between Europe and North Africa; one is a reasonably wealthy EU country, while the other has a population that, on average, makes one tenth of the other. Yet the two countries share a rich and interconnected past, with similarities in culture, architecture and religion. They also have close economic and political relations, though often fraught with disagreement. This region provides an excellent context for us to learn about issues of socio-economic disparity, politics and sustainable energy challenges in varying environments.
Human Rights and Sustainability
May 19 to June 9*
3 credit hours (SOS 494 or SOS 598 or SOS 456)
Dr. LaDawn Haglund
Explore the connections between human rights and environmental sustainability in the Brazilian context. The right to food, housing, resource control and a healthy environment are all areas where human rights and sustainability overlap. Conservation efforts can create obstacles for access to housing, land and livelihoods. At the same time, the world's poor and indigenous populations often bear the costs of environmental degradation, pollution and climate change resulting from patterns of production and consumption from which they do not personally gain. This program explores these complex issues through site visits in São Paulo, Curitiba, Brasilia and the Amazon.
The Netherlands
Sustainable Solutions for Mobility and Accessibility in the Netherlands
May 24 to June 8*
3 credit hours (SOS 494 or SOS 498 Capstone or SOS 598)
Dr. Arnim Wiek & Dr. Aaron Golub
Examine transformational solutions to urban mobility issues in Haarlemmermeer, Amsterdam and other cities in the Netherlands. Solutions include bike- and pedestrian-friendly infrastructure, solar-powered cars and public transit, car- and bike-sharing programs and transit-oriented development. Learn how to analyze solutions by taking into account their history, evaluating their transformational potential and impacts, considering unintended consequences and exploring their transferability to the U.S. and the Phoenix metro area.
Participants are expected to participate in a 1-credit pre-departure course offered in Spring (Session B).
Hong Kong
Urban Sustainability in Hong Kong
June 14 to June 30*
3 credit hours (SOS 494 or SOS 598)
Dr. Rob Melnick
In the absence of successful global and federal leadership on sustainability, cities are increasingly taking the initiative for sustainability policymaking in GHG emissions, renewable energy, alternative transportation, water management and community resilience. This summer course will use Hong Kong as the setting to provide students with knowledge, insights and an experience to understand how cities formulate and apply public policy to the challenges of local sustainability.
Trinidad and Tobago
GlobalResolve: Connecting with Communities in the Developing World
May 18 to June 7*
3 credit hours (SOS 494 or SOS 598)
Dr. Mark Henderson and Dr. Odesma Dalrymple
Trinidad and Tobago is a twin island republic each with very different lifestyles. Trinidad is the larger island with 1.2 million people and a vibrant lifestyle. Tobago is more of a tourist destination with lazy beaches and a population of 60,000. Environmental problems, however, are global in nature, and solutions are not always easy or equitable. This trip will explore some of the indigenous culture such as the steelpan (also known as steel drum), as well as the mix of people who have immigrated over the years when the islands were a slave destination to today when they have one of the largest natural gas reserves in the western hemisphere. This will be an immersive study-abroad experience where you will get to practice sustainability by contributing to two projects: 1) working in partnership with the faculty from the University of the West Indies on a project to harvest energy from ocean waves, and 2) partnering with the Tobago House of Assembly, Division of Agriculture to learn about the harvesting of cassava and the production of farina. This faculty-led program takes place in a beautiful location that provides an excellent context for us to learn about issues of socio-economic contrasts, politics and sustainable energy challenges in the Caribbean.
*All dates are subject to change.
Financial Support and Scholarship Application
Award amounts up to $5,000 are available to qualified sustainability majors, with up to $2,500 available to sustainability minors and concentration students. The scholarship application is now posted and will close on February 3. Awards will be based on essay application, academic merit, financial need and total cost of the program chosen. Funding is made possible by the Rob and Melani Walton Sustainability Solutions Initiatives.
- Sustainability majors, minors or concentration area students, applying to one of the programs listed
- Minimum 2.75 gpa
- 56 credit hours completed by the time of participation
- Two of the following courses, completed by the time of participation: SOS 100, SOS 110, SOS 111, SOS 300, or equivalent
Program Application
2014Global Sustainability Studies program applications will open in December 2013 after scholarships have been awarded. Scholarship awardees will have priority placement in their preferred program(s).
If you have any questions or would like to be added to a specific program's interest list, please contact:

- Samick Little Fox ow Review by LittleFox
Price Value Quality
Just got this bow last week and was amazed at how brilliant it is. I used this bow for the first time at my local archery club and everyone was amazed when I told them the price and are now looking for the same bow. I highly recommend this bow to beginners.

- Nice Youth Bow but not as pictured Review by MrSinister
Value Quality Price
Just got the samick little fox. Looks like the usual samick construction. Not at all flawless in finish but a nice looking little bow. I am greatly disappointed in the bow not matching the image or description. If you look at the photo it shows the riser being cut past center just like the sage and in the description it also clearly states cut past center. The bow is only cut to center a smooth shelf not cut past center and not as pictured. That was my reason for purchase to upgrade him to a center shot recurve and this is not that. They either need to make what they advertise or change the item listings.

Other than being one of the late Dennis Hopper's last screen credits, there's little else to distinguish this obnoxious 3D tooner.
Justin Long and Hayden Panettiere voice two wolves from opposite ends of the pack that must set aside their class differences after they are relocated to a park hundreds of miles away.
Sadly, their journey home is anything but incredible, feebly punctuated by grizzlies, rednecks and an annoying Canadian goose (Larry Miller).
Hopper, for what it's worth, voices a big bad wolf out to steal territory from a rival lupine chief (Danny Glover).

Jay-Z & Kanye Wests New Album WATCH THE THRONE Deluxe Edition Available Exclusively at Best Buy, August 12th - August 22nd
The DELUXE CD-version of Kanye West and JAY-Z's WATCH THE THRONE will be available exclusively at Best Buy locations nationwide from August 12th – August 22nd. The DELUXE album includes four bonus songs from the duo. The most anticipated release of the year from JAY-Z and Kanye West – also known as THE THRONE - has already been deemed a "masterpiece," garnering critical acclaim from press and tastemakers alike.
"It's been an exciting year so far for the music industry with some major releases, and we're particularly excited about partnering with leading artists JAY-Z and Kanye on the launch of their highly anticipated album," said Nate Jarpe, merchant director of music at Best Buy. "With entertainment at our core, we are always looking for new ways to give people more when it comes to the hottest releases. With this exclusive offering, our goal is to make it easy for our customers and true fans to choose Best Buy."
The DELUXE packaging for "WATCH THE THRONE" is high-end art created by acclaimed designer Riccardo Tisci of Givenchy.

The package also includes an 18-panel poster that features Tisci's artwork as well as lyrics to the entire album. The CD is a special edition black colored disc which is not standard with normal packaging. In tune with his codes for Givenchy, Riccardo Tisci created an artwork that channels most of his aesthetics: symmetry, lightness, darkness, sharpness and 3D.
WATCH THE THRONE Deluxe edition CD will be available at additional retailers beginning August 23rd.

Blaming the current raid design as the reason your rogue is retired is really lame, IMO - especially since Paragon stacked ROGUES for their Al'Akir world 1st, and had plenty of rogues in raid for many of their other heroic 1st kills (I see 3 rogues for sinestra, 2 for cho'gall, 1 for ascendant council, 2 for valonia & theralion, 3 for chimaeron, 1 for omnotron, 2 for conclave, etc etc.).
Melee spots have always been difficult to get in good raids. You need to be good, you need to be persistent, and you need to be consistent to earn a spot in a good raid. Melee dps is the most common type of wow player out there, so you are going to be in competition with a lot of like-minded players. Even in more casual raiding, there is a certain amount of competition for spots among melee dps. I'm sure anyone who has run a pug has turned down what seems like a bajillion "dk dps here" /tells.
If you are really good, and follow through, you'll get those raid spots though.

The Arizona football team opens the season on Friday night vs Northern Arizona. They're dancing into the season.
The Wildcats decided to get down with a memorable dance-off to end summer camp. The video was captured on video by Arizona Athletics.
The dance moves, which included players doing the worm and the dougie, were priceless. Even the student equipment manager started shaking it (with his hat backwards).
Coach Rich Rodriguez capped things off with what looked to be the electric wave.

Top of the morning to all of you. I know it's a day early, but happy St. Patrick's Day. I'm in the mood now, as I just watched my sister Sheila, a third grade teacher, win the Jig Contest at her school. She drafted me to attended for moral support and my particularly loud clap. But she didn't need my help to take the crown ( and the flashing Shamrock necklace). She had the support of the entire third grade which cheered particularly loud for her Riverdance routine. Erin Go Bragh, Sheila Rigby Dolan!

"In my wildest dreams I envision a scenario where fury, arms and protection warriors are all viable for DPS and tanking, and it comes down more to 'what do you want to play' choice instead of 'you must be fury to DPS, you must be prot to tank, you must be arms to PvP' design philosophy"
That would be a pretty wild dream indeed.
Why don't we give prot pallies the ability to heal great, and dps hardcore.... or wait.... give shad priest the ability to do shad damage and be main healer in raids... or wait... lets give druids great healing, tanking AND good magic damage.
Wtf. Why even put that statement in the article.
Totally agree with Rossi. With more and more talents, Wraith is getting into the philosophy that all talent trees are useful for various portions of the game, no longer are you pigeonholed.
As a non-warrior, i'd really like to see arms/fury at least decent for tanking. Its just stupid that we have all these warriors running around leveling, and none of them will tank. Hopefully this will at least encourage them to think about it.

text: The Pilgrimage DVD introduces the way of Christian meditation, and the work and vision of The World Community for Christian Meditation (WCCM). In four parts, and narrated by Fr Laurence Freeman OSB, the video describes the tradition of this ancient way of prayer, John Main's personal journey and re-presentation of the tradition. A teaching on how to meditate is followed by the sharing of experiences by meditators around the world who build the practice into their daily lives. An overview of WCCM describes the life of this global community that has been created by meditation, and which is vibrant in the weekly meditation groups that help newcomers to persevere on the inner journey. The "Meditatio" outreach expresses the aspiration of WCCM to express its contemplative life in work for peace, justice and compassion. "Pilgrimage" would be particularly useful for viewing at introductory workshops, group gatherings, and for sharing with people who are interested in the teaching and work of the community.These are the track titles: 1. An Introduction to Christian Meditation (27:10min)2. The Daily Practice (20:00min)3. Meditation Creates Community (16:10min)4. Meditation for the World (19:10min)Total duration: 82:30 min

I am happy to present to you, "Share it Maybe."
