MONDAY, Nov. 1 (HealthDay News) -- The injected antibiotic
Teflaro (ceftaroline fosamil) has been approved by the U.S. Food
and Drug Administration to treat bacterial infections including
community acquired bacterial pneumonia and methicillin-resistant
Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), the agency said in a news
MRSA, resistant to a host of common antibiotics, is typically
acquired in hospitals and other health care settings.
Teflaro is among a class of antibiotics called cephalosporins,
which treat infections by interfering with the bacterial cell
In clinical testing, the most common side effects of Teflaro
included diarrhea, nausea and rash. The drug shouldn't be used by
people with a known history of allergy or sensitivity to
cephalosporins, the FDA said.

Lost a double-dog-dare bet with my best friend Mack
After the coin toss I headed home to pack
One road map, 20 Cliff bars, and a spare tire atop my bike rack
We pedaled from the Great American Ball Park to Jacob's Field –that's a fact!
Sweltering heat, semi-trucks, and a s-c-a-r-y dog attack,
I sprayed a beagle with Mace threatening to eat him for a snack
In Amish country Mack wrecked while grabbing a camera from his sack
Anytime he'd blow a tire I'd fix it—that was my knack
By the time we'd reached Perrysburg it was completely pitch black
Feathers flying everywhere, all I heard was a loud Q-U-A-C-K!
After 280 miles…, sunburned…, and a near heart attack…
Hard Rock Café, Cleveland,….beer and burgers smothered in Pepper Jack!
For Carol Brown's Contest -Ornery Best Friends

NORTHLEACH, UNITED KINGDOM - OCTOBER 23: (EMBARGOED FOR PUBLICATION IN UK NEWSPAPERS UNTIL 48 HOURS AFTER CREATE DATE AND TIME) Kate Middleton and Prince William attend Harry Meade & Rosie Bradford's wedding at the Church of St. Peter and St. Paul on October 23, 2010 in Northleach near Cheltenham, England. (Photo by Indigo/Getty Images)
Future bride and princess-to-be Kate Middleton has already soared to the top of the pop culture radar since the announcement of her engagement to Britain's Prince William, and we can expect to see her on covers galore until the royal wedding.
A WWD report confirms that editors of domestic celebrity weeklies are banking on Middleton to sell magazines—not a surprising conclusion, due to the blend of fairy tale and contemporary appeal the betrothed bride brings to the table.
As a nation, we may have broken free from the tangles of monarchy government more than 200 years ago, but that hasn't stopped little girls (and even not-so-little girls) from daydreaming of someday becoming princesses. Not only is Middleton a much more real version of, say, Cinderella, she's much chicer, too.
We personally can't wait to see more of Middleton. Unlike Diana, who was a timid 19-year-old at the time of her engagement to Prince Charles, William's bride-to-be emanates impeccable polish and poise. And she's quite style-savvy too—she's worked as an accessories buyer for the popular British chain Jigsaw, and has earned respect in the press for her sense of style. Plus, she and William live together and seem—strange as this is to say about a royal couple—rather well-adjusted.
As much as we love the fantasy lives of celebrities, knowing how stars are similar to us has its selling points—just look at girl-next-door Jennifer Aniston's track record for selling magazines.

Bated breaths no more. 3 years in development and with nothing to show DirecTV has canceled the HDPC-20, a tuner that was designed to integrate the satellite service with Windows Media Center. As stated by a company spokespersons:
"DIRECTV has suspended the development of the HDPC-20 tuner project that was designed to integrate DIRECTV service into Windows Media Center after assessing the impact of missing the August 2008 release of Windows Media Center update and considering timing of the next release. Both DIRECTV and Microsoft understand the desirability of offering consumers an all encompassing DIRECTV programming solution via Windows-based PCs. We are continuing to explore ways to integrate DIRECTV service with Windows-based PCs in the future. The HDPC-20 tuner that appears on the driver list of a pre-Beta build of Windows 7 is an artifact that was listed prior to the decision to suspend the tuner project. As our plans progress toward a Windows Media Center-compatible product, we will make an announcement at the appropriate time."

When a company innovates and the public receives the technology well, It's only a matter of time before other companies duplicate or respond to the innovation with their own solutions or versions of that technology. That means with all the new fun stuff Samsung is doing, we can expect responses from competing Android manufacturers, Apple and Microsoft.
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery
-Charles Caleb Colton
What I'm saying is that you and I, Mr. Designer, need to start thinking about how we're going to implement this tech into our next apps. We really need to utilize input features like tilting, eye tracking, wrist gestures and finger hovering- It's like a new age of mobile interaction design is upon us! Hot damn I'm excited!
Here's the skinny on what the new Galaxy brings us:
- Larger screen (1080p), Thinner (but similar) body *yawn*
- 13 megapixel rear camera, backed by many of Samsung's Galaxy Camera features.
- An IR-blaster built into the phone allows it to replace your television's remote control.
- Smart Scroll feature allows you to scroll through websites by tilting your phone.
- If you're watching a movie and put your phone down to grab a snack, video play will stop until you return and look at the screen again.
- A Smart Pause feature lets you control the screen with your eyes. (LG has a similar feature now)
- Group Play lets you share music, photos and games with the people around you. The feature can also be used to play music together as a group, turning your friend's phone's speakers into a mobile surround sound system.
- Air View features let you hover your fingers over an email, S Planner, or image gallery to view a larger preview of content before selecting it.
- Air Gesture feature allows you to change a song, scroll through a web page, or answer a call by just waving your hand.
Ignore the ignorance
While doing research on the S4′s new features, I've come across an insane amount of thoughtless opinions that simply have no substance- but still rank high in Google search. Apple fan, Windows mobile fan, Android fan, Ubuntu fan- let's agree that the industry as a whole is evolving at an awesome rate- and we couldn't be happier.
And yet, real innovation in smartphones seems to have hit a plateau ….. To that I say: whoopee, big deal.
- Cyrus Sanati, New Samsung Galaxy S4? Meh, Fortune
Cyrus Sanati, You have no idea what you're talking about. Next time you decide to write an article on a flagship product release, at least read the feature list.
@csanati @cnnmoney next time you decide to write a flagship product release article, read the feature list yuriyz.com/blog/samsung-g…

Why do so few people want to live significantly longer and healthier than a so-called natural life span?
As I have discussed the concept of immortality with people over the years, something has consistently surprised me. I ask people, "If you could live a much longer but still vital and healthy life, would you want to live, say, 200 years? 500 years?
Most people do not want to live that long - even if they could remain healthy and vital all that time. It seems what most people are saying, is that they actually *want* to grow old and die.
Yet we all supposedly want to be healthy and strong, and of course we would naturally want to heal ourselves if we got sick or injured - we seek health. Then why this death wish among most people I poll?
I'm obviously in the "Hell yeah, give me healthy immortality" camp, so I'm looking for help from other people in explaining the other side of this please.
Is that a coping mechanism to help accept our own mortality? Would you really turn down an opportunity to live much longer, along with your friends, and healthy?
Or is my own personal polling off? I guess we'll see!

Oct 21 2012: Thank you Roy. I believe you are saying that you would choose to leave this planet through a natural death, when offered the alternative to continue living a healthy, vital life, because you are sick of all the violence.
So I am compelled to ask: Why not stick around and fight the violence? And also forgive me if this sounds crass (I mean this with respect), if you are so sick of the violence, why continue living at all? Or are you saying that you're not so sick of the violence now (not sick enough to end your life), but that in another 10 or 20 or 50 years, you might be?

I gotta get a few more Masters Of Kung-Fu. I'm thinking that arc that runs through #50 looks good.
I'm really jealous of your Fireside Books - Origins Of Marvel Comics, etc. I gotta get those back, I used to have 'em as a little kid.
And damn, the record shelves look great too. I might need you to go ahead and take pictures of everything you got, man!
And how much space does an almost full run of ASM take? Less than 2 1/2 long boxes.
Technically, I should have shown ASM -1 instead of ASM 2, but that's a lot less impressive. I pulled up all the 100 issues, as well as Annual #1 and Annual #38.
I kind of want to catalogue exactly how much space my Spider-Man collection takes up, or how big it actually is. The core series, mini series, one shots and spinoffs are easy enough, but the guest appearances are all over the place...
I love that #100 cover.
Easily one of my favorites.
Not nearly as impressive as ASM #3 (in fact, not impressive in any way at all), but I just bought Loners #6.
While looking for something else just now, I discovered that I was somehow missing the last issues of Loners and New Avengers: Illuminati.
I know that I read both, so I must have owned them at some point, but I'll be damned if I can find them now.
All I can think that might have happened to them is either I've lost them in one of my moves (doubtful) or my ex maybe took and destroyed a bunch of random issues from my longboxes when we split (also fairly doubtful. She was pretty pissed, but she was never that kind of petty, nor that devious). Maybe I loaned them out and never got them back? Doesn't seem like me, but who the fuck knows?
Anyway, the long and short of it is that I am now missing these two issues, so I have just had a quick shop around online for both.
Found Loners for £2, so bought it on the spot.
Can't find NA: Illuminati #5 except as part of a set at first glance, but I'll keep an eye out for it.
Man, Loners and Illuminati are both on a huge stack of books I've been meaning to give away. Goddamn Atlantic/entire latitude of North America.
Heh, no worries, man.
I appreciate the thought.
However, if any of you should ever stumble across this comic in your LCS or at a con (or if you already own it and are willing to part with it), I will gladly pay you for the price of the book, plus shipping, international postage rates be damned.
It's the last issue of a four issue mini.
I bought the first three as they were released, but never got around to picking up #4.
It's damned near impossible to find now for whatever reason and even though it wasn't particularly good, I really would like to own it purely for the sake of completism and teen nostalgia.
So yeah, please, if you should come across it, grab it for me?
I'm working on that Golden Daggers arc (44 is a prologue, 45-50 is the arc and 51 is an epilogue). Master has really been hitting the sweet spot for me recently: The poetic and philosophical musings (even during fights), the often-tragic plot twists, the innovative action sequences and the very-70s feel of the book just make for some great comics. If anyone wants to dip their toes, I recommend Giant-Size No. 2: Killer (really!) story and Gulacy art, plus some Yellow Claw reprints, slightly retconned to make Jimmy Woo a SHIELD agent. Highly recommended.
I never had any Fireside books as a kid, but drooled over the ads. A few years back and a couple of eBay auctions later, I scored Origins, So of, Women, Team-ups and (of course!) Bring on the Bad Guys. I'd love to get them all, but that's strictly long game.
I'll take some more pix. My mother-in-law got me the IKEA record cases. Before, I had the most jury-rigged system of small Target book cases, milk crates (I used to be quite the crate thief in my youth) and bought crates — all combined into a series of islands in my room. This is much better.
Also, I have a habit on Friday nights (sometimes Saturday nights) of drinking beers and taking pictures of comics, toys and records, and posting them on Facebook. If any wants to friend me, PM me. (The impending absence of PMs is already making me sad, but I'll see what I've got and post some weirdness in here.

Gimpy Marshawn Lynch struggles in loss to Falcons
1/14/13 in NFL | Matthew_Shovlin | 735 respect
Lynch missed two practices last week for only the second time all season due to a foot sprain. The sprain was thought to be mild, and Lynch was listed as probable on the injury report. The Seahawks seemed to have little concern over the ailment, and as a result, many fans expected to see Lynch kick it into beast mode when he took the field on Sunday. However, that was not the case at all.
Lynch's only moderate success against the Falcons came when he was running behind Pro Bowl left tackle Russell Okung. Lynch ran off his left tackle five times for 23 yards (4.6 per carry) on Sunday. However, 11 of those yards came on one run, which Lynch finished off with a fumble. On runs where Lynch ran outside of Okung or behind other linemen, he averaged 2.1 yards per carry (11 carries, 23 yards).
Though Lynch's injury was downplayed, and possibly not mentioned once throughout FOX's broadcast (that I remember), I thought his foot was slowing him down. The Falcons allowed the second most yards after contact in the NFL this season, and Lynch - one of the league's premier finishers of runs - was not plowing those tacklers backwards the way he usually does.
The coaching staff also eventually realized that Lynch wasn't himself. To start the fourth quarter, the Seahawks had the ball in the red zone. Considering there had just been a break between quarters, Lynch should have been fresh and ready to go. Instead, the Seahawks went with rookie Robert Turbin for the first two plays (granted, he did make a great play to get them down to the goal line). Lynch was handed the ball once on the goal line, then the Seahawks went back to the pass for their touchdown.
I thought that a lot of the time Lynch was in there, it was just a token move by the Seahawks' coaching staff. They didn't really want to feed Lynch the ball, but they wanted the Falcons' defense to fear the threat of one of the league's elite runners. Unfortunately, they realized Lynch's ineffectiveness a little too late, resulting in their slow first half and electric second half.
I understand that part of the reason the Seahawks abandoned the run was because they were losing by several scores, but when they came out of the locker room after halftime down 20 and in possession of the ball, the run game was still very much in play. They handed it to Lynch twice on that drive, gave it to Turbin once, and called six pass plays - an interesting ratio for the team that ranked 1st in rushing attempts and 32nd in pass attempts.
I still give the Falcons a ton of credit for locking down the Seahawks' run game. Whether Lynch's foot held him back or not, the Seahawks have a great offensive line that boasts two Pro Bowlers, and even a gimpy Lynch is no easy tackle. Regardless, I thought Lynch was struggling with that foot injury, and the Seahawks' offense could have been more effective in the first half if he was a hundred percent.

Rauf and his wife Daisy founded the American Society for the Advancement of Muslims with assistant imam Faiz Khan in 1997. Khan is a radical "truther", a denier of the islamic attack of 9/11, insisting instead that 9/11 must have been an inside job. This man, Faiz Khan, has led services at the Burlington Coat Factory as recently as late 2009.
Now do you want to tell me this project has no radical ties? It is about peaceful bridge-building?

Product Information
- Fairy Figure of Eight Train Set from Bigjigs Toys
- We recommend this product for ages 3 and up
What It Is
The Fairy Figure of Eight Train Set comes with 40 wooden pieces that lets kids build a figure eight of track with a bridge. There are 12 curved pieces of track, two straight pieces, and two bridge pieces. This train set also comes with one wooden train engine and two train cars, three wooden houses, several wooden tree pieces, two wooden train crossing signs, and three wooden fairy figures. The train engine and train cars stick together via magnets, so kids can push the train engine along the track and the engine will pull the train cars behind it. This set is compatible with other wooden rail systems so kids can create an even bigger track.
Is It Fun?
This is a classic-looking wooden train set that will engage kids in lots of imaginative play. The pieces are sturdy and chunky, making it easy for young kids to fit the track pieces together and pick up the accessories as they play. The addition of fairies complements a popular play theme.
Who It's For
The Fairy Figure of Eight Train Set is for ages 3–8.
What To Be Aware Of
It took us about 10 minutes to set up. There aren't step-by-step instructions, just a picture of the track pieces labeled with letters. However, the track pieces themselves do not have letters on them, so kids will have to determine where the pieces go by matching their shapes with the picture.
Also available is a more boy-themed Figure of Eight Train Set.

Best place for body work I've been to in New Orleans.
Had a small repair done here and was very surprised and pleased with the repair work.I was stopped at the red light at nap and tchoup and decided to pull in for an estimate.Nice attention to detail here, needless to say I was very impressed.Never have I seen a cleaner auto repair shop. One of the many things that I liked about this business is how nice and prompt they are. Oddly enough but I actually felt really comfortable leaving my car (2012 Infiniti JX35) here. Better there than the dealer thats for sure


text: My eagerly awaited copy of Home Theater Magazine arrived today which contained the second part of a fairly lengthy two part subwoofer test. The subwoofers on test were :- Adire Sadhara Canton AS50SC Earthquake Supernova 10 Mk 4 JBL Studio 120P11 NHT SW12 Triad InRoom Silver Totem Thunder Velodyne SPL-1000 Mk 2 The two most interesting things about the test for me were the fact that none of the subwoofers were well known in this country or widely available, even though the Velodyne brand is known to forum members, and secondly that in order to get around room acoustic problems all the testing was done outside. The summary came up with some interesting facts as his conclusion was that the bass that people hear is shaped by :- 1) The room the subwoofer is in 2) Where it is in that room 3) Where you are sitting in that room 4) What furnishings and acoustic treatments there are in the room 5) What equalization is being applied Although we know the above, the author then concludes that taken individually, each of the above factors influences bass quality to a greater perceptible degree than the difference between any of the two subwoofers in the survey. When asked which subwoofer he would buy he answered that he wouldnt buy a single one of any of them but would plump for two of the same model, probably the Totem or Triad if he had the money or the JBL or Adire if he couldnt afford the first two. He said that he would experiment relentlessly with placement and when he had it about right hed touch it up with an equalizer, leaving alone the frequency dips that are due to room cancellations and hence inherently unfixable. He would make his own bass traps and flexaural absorbers to control known acoustic problems then retest and re-equalize before coming to the best bit of all dip the lights and enjoy. I found it a lengthy but very interesting and different article to what we are used to reading.

SHERIDAN (WKZO) -- The treasurer of Sheridan Township in northeast Calhoun County has been arrested and is expected to be formally charged with embezzlement of taxpayer funds. Investigators allege she has siphoned over 80-thousand dollars in the last two years.
Treasurer Linda Lewis has been under investigation since the spring, but since the only way to remove an elected official is to recall her or convict her, she has remained on the job, under supervision. She may keep her job after Tuesday, unless a write-in candidate can unseat her. She is running unopposed for re-election.

Paraquat for sugarcane
Sugarcane is a tall grass with a thick fibrous stem which stores sucrose. As a tropical crop, most is grown in Latin America, India and the Far East. About 70% of all sugar comes from sugarcane, the rest from sugar beet.
Controlling weeds with paraquat and using associated agronomic practices can help overcome several major environmental issues in sugarcane production including:
- Soil erosionDescription Displacement of solids (soil, mud, rock and other particles) usually by the agents of currents such as, wind, water, or ice by downward or down-slope movement. Authoritative On-line References and Resources http://soilerosion.net/ This site brings together reliable information on soil erosion from a wide range of disciplines and sources. It aims to be the definitive internet source for those wishing to find out more about soil loss and soil conservation.
- Water contamination by run-offDescription The occurrence of surplus liquid (like rain) which originates up-slope and is collected beyond the ability of the soil to absorb it. The surplus liquid then flows away over the surface to reach the nearest surface water (pond, lake, river). Authoritative On-line References and Resources US Geological Survey's Water Science School and leachingDescription The natural process by which water soluble substances are carried downward through the soil into groundwater. of agrochemicals
- Weed resistanceDescription The inherited ability of a plant/weed to survive a dose of a herbicide normally lethal to that species. Authoritative On-line References and Resources http://www.weedscience.org/in.asp The International Survey of Herbicide Resistant Weeds monitors the evolution of resistant species and assesses their impact. All confirmed instances of new cases are listed. to other herbicides such as glyphosate
Soil erosion
Paraquat has been essential to the development of cultivation systems like no-tillDescription Also known as conservation tillage or zero tillage is a way of growing crops from year to year without disturbing the soil through tillage ie cultivating the soil usually with tractor-drawn implements. Authoritative On-line References and Resources No-till.com: A portal for on-line information about no-till farming. which do not rely on plowing for weed control. The less the soil is disturbed, the more erosion is avoided. Sugarcane is often grown on sloping ground or on fragile soils. Tropical rainstorms cause a lot of soil erosion. Loss of topsoil reduces fertility and productivity, makes operations difficult where gullies have opened, and the eroded soil blocks water courses. Associated run-off of pesticides and nutrients may also reduce biodiversityDescription The variety of life in all its forms, levels and combinations. Includes ecosystem diversity, species diversity, and genetic diversity (IUCN, UNEP and WWF, 1991).

When preparing fields for a new crop, instead of plowing, weeds or a legume cover cropDescription Cover crops are primarily planted not to be harvested for food but to reduce soil erosion, control weeds and improve soil quality. They are usually plowed or tilled under before the next food crop is planted, in which cases the "cover crop" is used as a soil amendment and is synonymous with "green manure crop." Authoritative On-line References and Resources http://attra.ncat.org/attra-pub/covercrop.html ATTRA is the US National Centre for Appropriate Technology's Sustainable Agriculture Information Centre. grown while the land was fallow can be controlled by a non-selectiveDescription A chemical product used for eliminating all types of weeds (annual and perennial grasses and broadleaved weeds). Authoritative On-line References and Resources http://www.weeds.iastate.edu/ An invaluable source of contemporary information about herbicides and weeds from Iowa State University. herbicide such as paraquat. Paraquat has the advantage over systemic herbicides like glyphosate in that it very quickly kills shoots, leaving roots intact to improve soil structure and provide an anchoring effect to resist erosion. Cane setts are then planted in single furrows or narrow strips of tilled soil.
Agrochemical leaching
Paraquat is deactivated immediately on contact with the soil, so there are no run-off, leaching, persistence or root uptake problems to restrict its use. Residual herbicides which act in the soil on germinating weed seeds are widely used in sugarcane. However, although these herbicides give long term weed control, they have to move in the soil to be effective, so running the risk of leaching.
Sugarcane fact file
- 26 million ha of sugarcane are grown around the world
- 101 countries grow sugarcane
- 1.8 billion tonnes were harvested in 2012
- No. 1 country for sugarcane production is Brazil
- 25% increase in area of sugarcane in Brazil since 2000
Weed resistance
Weeds reduce sugarcane yields by competing for light, water and nutrients, by harboring pests and diseases, interfere with milling, and limit the number of ratoon crops which regrow from an original planting. Weed control can be one of the most costly components of sugarcane production.
Paraquat is not systemic like glyphosate so it can be applied up to the four leaf stage of sugarcane without lasting damage. In some situations the temporary scorching of the crop is even beneficial and stimulates the growth of side-shoots (tillers). Later, paraquat can be used to desiccate the crop by spraying by air 3-14 days before harvest.
Although glyphosate gives good control of perennial weedsDescription

The Atonement Part 53--Atonement School Tactics (c)
In lecture 52, we explored the first step in our strategy of systematic doubt--exposing the Atonement School's bad scholarship by questioning its English usage.
In this lecture, we take the second step in our process--exposing the Atonement School's dishonesty by questioning its Greek usage. It is TOR's position that most advocates of penal-substitutionary atonement (PSA) are good men who are simply teaching what they themselves have been taught. Sadly, this is not the case with some of PSA's most influential proponents. Outside of seminarians, few people in the English-speaking world have studied the Greek language. Aware of this, elites like R.C. Sproul knowingly exegete false theology from the New Testament, insisting that the underlying Greek supports their exegesis. In today's show, you will hear Sproul repeatedly assert that the Greek grammar of Ephesians 2:8-9 requires one to believe "A," trading on the knowledge that none of his supporters will check the reference. But when one actually quotes the Greek, one finds that the text requires one to believe "non-A." Thus, R.C. Sproul, one of the most powerful voices for PSA, has been impeached as a witness and his credibility destroyed.
We continue our process of systematic doubt with step 3--exposing the Atonement School's hypocrisy by holding it to a consistent standard. If the seventeen claims of PSA are true, then then those claims should be true regardless of what person professes them. For example, claim #14 goes: "On the cross, Christ becomes a literal curse and the embodiment of sin." Hank Hanegraaff, a self-appointed arbiter of theological purity, allows his friend and mentor R.C. Sproul to profess claim #14 with impunity. But when disreputable televangelist Benny Hinn professes precisely the same theology, Hanegraaff subjects Hinn to withering ridicule.
Sadly, one discovers that the Atonement School is less interested in systematic theology than it is in protecting its celebrity exponents. The claims of PSA are acceptable when coming from "reputable" sources like R.C. Sproul and James MacDonald. But the same claims are unacceptable when coming from "disreputable" sources like Benny Hinn and Neil T. Anderson.
Any system perpetuating itself by dishonesty and hypocrisy should be discarded. PSA is a system perpetuating itself by dishonesty and hypocrisy. Therefore, PSA should be discarded.

If a strong competitor has begun to pull away some of your customers, avoid a direct marketing confrontation with them. In other words, do not put out marketing pieces that essentially denigrate a rival.
Your Initial Attack
If you have a limited budget and, seemingly, an unlimited number of competitors, try starting your marketing campaign with a "splash".
Fight Where You Can Win
The lesson: be mindful to compete in an area where you stand a chance of winning.

Find Out if You're a Narcissist
Think the world revolves around you? You might be what's known as a narcissist. Take the test below and find out. Let us know if you think the results are accurate!
Developed by Dr. Drew Pinsky and Dr. S. Mark Young, authors of the new book "The Mirror Effect," The Narcissism Test lets you know if you possibly fall into that me! me! me! "narcissistic" category.
Pinksy and Young advise to take the test in one sitting without asking for help or clarification, and to answer the questions honestly. "There's no such thing as a good or bad result on this test," says Pinsky. "Scoring high on the narcissism inventory, or high on any of the component categories, doesn't mean you have a disorder, or that you're a good or bad person."

1, 2 and 3: A
The average score for the general population is 15.3. The average score for celebrities is 17.8. Pinsky says he scored 16.
Young says it is important to consider which traits are dominant. For example, an overall score that reflects more points on vanity, entitlement, exhibitionism and exploitiveness is more cause for concern than someone who scores high on authority, self-sufficiency and superiority, he says.
The seven component traits by question:
⢠Authority: 1, 8, 10, 11, 12, 32, 33, 36
⢠Self-sufficiency: 17, 21, 22, 31, 34, 39
⢠Superiority: 4, 9, 26, 37, 40
⢠Exhibitionism: 2, 3, 7, 20, 28, 30, 38
⢠Exploitativeness: 6, 13, 16, 23, 35
⢠Vanity: 15, 19, 29
⢠Entitlement: 5, 14, 18, 24, 25, 27
…you care enough about yourself to finish this 40 question quiz
I wan to learn more please email me
I only scored a 7. What's the matter with me? Or does that make me a reverse narcissist? It makes me feel special and better than everyone else to score so low. Obviously, I'm the best.
all the npds that took this test try extra hard to get a high score to feel unique, these tests make them feel more powerfull and more great about them selfes.
my score?! 38

In 1911, Field & Stream paid Charles DeFeo the whopping sum of $75.00 per issue for the cover art for their sporting magazine. Illustration had always been a passion for the burgeoning young artist born in Delaware only twenty years earlier. He soon began producing cover illustrations for other magazines when America entered WWI. After failing his army physical he actually joined the Royal Canadian Air Force before upping with the U.S. Army as a sergeant. After the war, DeFeo studied art in New York City under Francis Vincent Dumond, whose passion for angling and fly-tying was passed on to his student.
Throughout DeFeo's professional career he illustrated and painted angling scenes for magazines and books including Roderick Haig-Brown's book Return to the River (1941), Sparse Grey Hackle's Fishless Days (1954), and Dean Sage's The Ristigouche and its Salmon Fishing (1973) with Ogden Pleissner. Although considered an amateur fly tyer (because he did not sell his flies), DeFeo's flies are of the finest in quality and originality. His impressionistic style of tying mixes well with his use of brilliant colors and dramatic angling scenes in his paintings. In both his art and flies one cannot help but see DeFeo's celebration of and enthusiasm for fly fishing and life.
Megan Boyd (1915–2001) was born Rosina Megan Boyd in England and moved to the Sutherland coastline of Scotland with her family at the age of three. She later moved to the village of Brora, where she stayed and established herself as one of the most important salmon fly tiers of the twentieth century.
Many will be surprised to learn that Boyd never cast a fly rod her entire life: "Now to disappoint all my customers, I do not fish, have no interest in fishing, and cannot even tie a fly to a cast," she once said. She began to tie flies at the age of twelve when her father encouraged her to apprentice with Robert Trussler of Carrol Rock. Another local sponsor aided her studies by gifting the book How to Dress Salmon Flies by T. E. Pryce-Tannatt (published 1914), a book Boyd referred to as her bible. By the end of World War II, she was able to save money to purchase tying supplies, and at that time she began to earn a living as a fly dresser. The vast majority of her flies were from existing patterns; she is credited with developing the Megan pattern later in her career.
Although Boyd never produced brochures or price schedules for her Kintradwell shop, her client list included some of the top names in the fly-fishing community. She tied flies for many generations of the royal family, including Charles, Prince of Wales; for author Joseph Bates of Massachusetts; and for others from Sweden, Norway, and America. Her impressive list of customers and four years' worth of back orders never stopped Boyd from teaching her art, free of charge. Boyd's fly-tying talents were recognized during her lifetime. She received much praise for her precise use of materials and her techniques to create exacting patterns. She won her first award in 1938 at the Empire Exhibition in Glasgow and received the British Empire Medal from the Crown of the United Kingdom in 1971.
By 1988 Megan Boyd had developed eye problems that prevented her from tying. She passed away in 2001 and left behind some of the most sought-after salmon dress flies ever tied.
Jim Holland Jr. was a 24-year-old law student when he became the first person to officially catch a 200-pound tarpon on a fly. It was a feat many had begun to think impossible, as legends like Billy Pate and Stu Apte had sought and failed to achieve what many considered the most coveted milestone in saltwater fly fishing.
In May 2000, Jim and his father, James Holland Sr., booked Florida guide Steve Kilpatrick for a week of tarpon fishing off the Florida coast. On the final day of their trip, while on the flats off Homosassa Springs, Jim hooked his tarpon, and the battle was on. Over the course of the next two hours, the fish pulled the boat the men were on nearly four miles; at one point, Kilpatrick had to rev his outboard motor to ward off a big bull shark that was looking to steal Holland's prize. When the tarpon was finally brought boatside, Kilpatrick measured its length and girth, estimating the fish weighed 204 pounds. Knowing the tarpon was a potential world record, the fishermen mutually agreed to bring it in to be officially weighed—it took two of them to hoist it onto the boat. Once they reached the dock, the tarpon officially tipped the scales at 202 lbs, 8 oz, and history was made.
Today, Holland is a personal injury attorney in Seattle. While he can often be found fly fishing in Oregon and Montana, he still finds that "the real adrenalin rush is fishing for tarpon."
Bill Curtis grew up with a fly rod in his hand (literally), but it was 1948 when he moved to Miami, Florida, he found a passion that changed his life and the future of fly fishing forever. In 1958 he started guiding in the Biscayne Bay for tarpon, bonefish and permit. In 1968 Bill took Curt Gowdy and Joe Brooks to Key West for an episode of American Sportsman and it was that show that brought the amazing fishing in the flats of the Keys to the attention of America. Curtis is credited with the introduction of what was to become the classic flats boat poling platform. "I used to stand on the motor to spot fish," he says. "It was not too steady, and I made a little stand bolted to risers off the deck. Although Bill retired from guiding at the age of 84 he can still cast a fly (at the age of 89) with the best of them, and his knowledge of the flats, tides, and fish patterns is unsurpassed. Curtis was one of nine saltwater pioneers who recently participated in the AMFF's filmed interview project. Last year he was honored by the IGFA, becoming the seventh captain inducted into the "Legendary Captains and Crews" Hall of Fame. His contributions to fly fishing the flats have been an inspiration to more anglers than can be counted.
Jack Gartside (1942-2009) was a fixture in the Boston area and was known by many as the taxi-driving fly tier. Gartside pursued his passion for angling by committing to a modest lifestyle and felt that expensive equipment did not equal great catches. One day, to prove his point that one does not need an expensive boat to enjoy angling, he inflated a beach toy in the shape of a giraffe and, using it was a float tube, set out to fish.
One name that is synonymous with fly fishing and casting instruction is Cathy Beck. Beck was born and raised in northeastern Pennsylvania, and she began to fly fish in 1978 after receiving casting instruction from another Pennsylvania native, Barry Beck. The pair has been inseparable since. Cathy has written books, teaches casting, and guides, and the couple hosts fly-fishing trips around the world as well as photo safari trips to Africa. Barry has taken some of the world's most memorable fly-fishing photographs, and Cathy is his most well-known subject.

hate to break the news - but a vote for GJ is a vote for Bambam.
1. vote Rombama
3. Get involved ahead of time and PREVENT Liberal-lites (aka "the establishment") from picking a Tweedledum candidate.
Why do you think they picked Rombama? They were afraid they would get a Representative as a choice, but they knew they could count on the non-participants to break away from the GOP. They won - so far - but you can grow up and keep moving in the right direction. no pun intended.
