One more post before I'm homeward bound tomorrow - it's been only four days but we're going to miss Vanuatu.
We took a final swim out to the turquoise waters just west of Tamanu this afternoon and there we were all bobbing about in the ocean, carelessly flapping our arms like a pair of crazies - Nicholas & I - and our new found friends, Victor, a roofer from the nearby island of Malakula, who was also holding onto a just-dead fish he had caught and his cousin Timmy, who had never flown on an airplane but drives Victor's bus around Efate, as their sons and nephews raced along the beach, diving every so often back into the currents singing and hollering.
And it's just that, this is where you meet new friends and their families, bobbing around in transparent waters, watching the sun, tasting the salt water, and finding out that bit more about the world and yourself.

Seeing into darkness is clarity.
Knowing how to yield is strength.
Use your own light
and return to the source of light.
This is called practicing eternity
Saracen was a term used by the ancient Romans to refer to a people who lived in desert areas in and around the Roman province of Arabia, and who were distinguished from Arabs. By the time of the Crusades, beginning in 1095, a "Saracen" had become synonymous with a "Muslim" in European chronicles.

- About Deakin
5 July 2010
A group of Deakin University researchers are aiming to put their expertise in new and developing technologies on the international cycling stage later this year by unveiling a custom-built 'smart' bike during the 2010 UCI Road World Championships in Geelong.
"With the best in world cycling in Geelong for the championships, we thought it was a great opportunity to showcase Deakin's world-class manufacturing and research capabilities in areas such as carbon fibre, titanium, and material and fibre innovation," explained project manager Dr Paul Collins from Deakin's Institute for Technology Research and Innovation (ITRI).
"We have given the project the working title of "The Smart Bike" because our design will make smart use of a number of research areas at Deakin where I think we are leading the world.
"The title is also a good fit because one of our aims is to make the bike capable – to a certain extent – of thinking for itself in a way that will help the rider get the best out of it."
Dr Collins said a number of design approaches were being looked at by researchers. These included the use of carbon tubing and bonding, magnesium for faster extruding, surface coating of titanium components for superior wear and using sensors in carbon laminate to help the rider make smart decisions about performance improvement.
Deakin's commitment to collaborating with industry is also a key part of the project.
"Deakin has a strong commitment to developing effective partnerships with industry and this is a perfect opportunity for us to work with new and existing industry partners to demonstrate the manufacturing capabilities that can be found in Geelong," Dr Collins said.
"We have several industry collaborators on this project. These include Baum Cycles – a Geelong-based company producing quality bikes in demand all over the world – Carbon Revolution, Hard Technologies and CAST-CRC."
While the bike will be the focus of new technologies, Dr Collins said he didn't think the end result would be totally unfamiliar.
"We're not planning to re-invent the bike; what we want to do is look at the structure of a bike and then explore what we can achieve by applying the expertise of both our Deakin researchers and our industry partners to that existing design.
"We hope both recreational and competitive bike riders will benefit from what we are doing with the potential to make bikes cheaper and increase safety without reducing their performance standards.
"Our goal is to cement Deakin's place as a centre of excellence for material, fibre and technical design. This project is an exciting opportunity to highlight internationally the world-class research that Deakin is undertaking in these areas."

|God Knows Your Needs
Lisa Barry: All this week in recognition of the National Day of Prayer, Elisabeth Elliot has been doing a special series on prayer. So far, we have learned that answered prayer doesn't always mean "yes" and that if we want to make prayer a priority, we need to make it a habit. There are many specific things that God wants us to pray about, but did you know that there are things He doesn't want us to pray about? Elisabeth reveals what those things are on this Wednesday edition of Gateway To Joy.
Elisabeth Elliot: "You are loved with an everlasting love." That's what the Bible says, "and underneath are the everlasting arms." This is your friend, Elisabeth Elliot, talking again today about "The Power of Prayer."
I want to read to you from Luke chapter 11, verses 9 to 13. "I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.
"Which of you fathers, if your son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead? Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!"
Verse ten says, "everyone who asks receives," but let's remember that we don't always receive what we thought we needed. God gives you what God knows you need. He who seeks, finds. To him who knocks, the door will be opened.
Our Heavenly Father's ear is always open. But we can't necessarily feel Him, can we? I can remember our parents trying to explain to us that we can't see God and we can't feel God, but we know that He's there. He is always there with us. And if you feel as though God is a million miles away and you are no longer in touch with Him, just remember that He is closer to you than breathing, nearer than hands and feet.
Elizabeth Goudge's definition of prayer is, "The ceaseless offering up of the whole personality--every thought, every word, every action as a sacrifice."
In the Book of Daniel chapter 9, verse 18 we read, "We do not make requests of You because we are righteous, but because of Your great mercy." Daniel is speaking directly to God there. "We do not make requests of You because we are righteous, but because of Your great mercy." And the Lord certainly has great mercy and compassion for all of us.
The Bible tells us that He remembers that we dust and we can come to Him in spite of all our fears and all our worries and we don't need to prepare ourselves greatly in advance. In fact there have been many times in my life when I have sent up to God an insistent prayer, an instant prayer. "O Lord, help me." "Lord help me to answer this question." "Lord, help me to find my way in the jungle." "Lord, show me how to raise my little daughter, Valerie."
Now, there are some things that we ought not to pray about. We come to the Lord of the Universe. He is our Maker. As one of the great hymns of the faith says, "Pavilioned in splendor and girded with praise."
He is my Father, and so we are to come unto Him as a child--utterly dependent, ignorant, expecting, not knowing what the answer is going to be. We should certainly be willing to pray, "Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done." His kingdom and His will make not look like what we really were praying for, but our petitions have to start where we are. God already knows what we are going to ask and He tells us, nevertheless, to ask.
In confession, which is a part of prayer, we need to pray "forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us." We need to confess and to be forgiven as we forgive those who have trespassed against us.
And that word intercession, what does it mean? The laying down of one's life for another. We do not know what to ask. It is interesting that in the Old Testament Aaron bore the names of the people on his breastplate. Intercession is not a game or sport. There are no experts in prayer. Prayer is work. It's concentration. It's even at times very irksome. And as C.S. Lewis says, "We are reluctant to begin and delighted to finish."
Reluctant to begin and delighted to finish. How easily can you be distracted from a novel or a TV? Not very easily. But from prayer, very easily indeed. C.S. Lewis quotes from someone, unknown author, "Many a Christian prays faintly lest God might really hear him, which he never intended." I love that, that's so much like us, isn't it? "Many a Christian prays faintly lest God might really hear him, which he never intended."
Many things which ought to be a delight, such as prayer, have to be duties. Love your neighbor. Do those things for which we were created. Behave as if you loved God and your neighbor.
What are the impediments to prayer? Well, obviously sin, evil in ourselves, a lack of love. And someone has said, "The worse one is praying, the longer one's prayers take. But we are still only at school."
Now, I just wanted to put in here something about what not to pray about. One of them is moods. Because I do believe that we have control over our moods. We don't need to blame it on God if we are moody and feeling down in the dumps. We can simply choose to be grateful, to be thoughtful, to be kind. And when it comes to matters of unequivocal obedience, we don't need to pray about those--we just need to do them.
Now, I don't know what your list is, the raw material from which God wants to produce in you the fruits of the Spirit. God knows exactly what each one of us needs and I would say all of us would probably think of love as the very beginning. Love versus unlove, joy, patience, peace.
God loves to hear us pray. He wants us like little children to come to His knee and ask. But we don't by any means necessarily get the thing that we wanted. But we are allowed and we are encouraged to pray and to make requests.
Sometimes those requests are granted and sometimes they are not. We might, for example, ask for a neighbor to feed our cat. A kind neighbor may be very happy to do that, another one may not. We might ask for a raise in pay. You may get it, you may not. A man may be agonizing right now about a woman that he should marry. Ask God. Don't hesitate to ask Him.
In C.S. Lewis' Letters to Malcolm, he writes this about the state of the mind, "which desperate desire working on a strong imagination can manufacture is not faith in a Christian sense." I'll read that again. "The state of mind which desperate desire, working on a strong imagination can manufacture is not faith in a Christian sense. It is a feat of psychological gymnastics."
He must refer to a degree or kind of faith which most believers never experience. A far inferior degree is, "I hope, acceptable to God." I love C.S. Lewis. He's so clear, so blunt at times and he opens up vistas of things that most of us have never even thought about.
Now, I have a little list of "Why does God say, 'No'?" You may have a much longer list or a shorter list. A similar one perhaps:
Will you trust Him? Even when He says no? God bless you.
Lisa Barry: We've all heard people say, "She just won't take no for an answer." And while that may be commended in certain situations, it's not advisable when it comes to God's guidance. If there is a situation in your life where you've been unwilling to take no for an answer, I pray you'll find the strength to lay that on the altar before God.
After you have done that, then I'd like to recommend that you read a book Elisabeth has written called God's Guidance. It's a book that will help you get the big picture for what God's plans are for you and the rest of the world. This is a book that will help you put your life and your circumstances in the proper eternal perspective and that's half the battle.
We are making God's Guidance available today for a suggested donation of $10.00 when you contact us and request it. Our toll-free number 1-800-759-4JOY. You can call anytime, day or night. We also have today's program available on tape. It's part of a series called "The Power of Prayer." Ask about it when you call 1-800-759-4569. If you prefer to write, our postal address is:
Gateway To Joy, Box 82500, Lincoln, NE 68501. We'd also like to invite you to dial up our Web site at gatewaytojoy.org. Gateway To Joy has been a production of Back to the Bible and is supported by the generous gifts of people like you. Thank you for the investment you are making in the spiritual maturity of the women in your area.
Tomorrow, Elisabeth will have a very special guest in the studio to talk about prayer. It's Shirley Dobson. So make it a point to join us next time for another Gateway To Joy.

My sister and I just got back from the mall. That being said, it was also one of the best events of my life.
We entered this store looking for dresses for some school function of hers and I had the squire position of running around and picking them out. With little to no respect I would either get yelled out bc I would purposely pick out the most hideous dresses for her to try on or things that were way too small. That part wasn't my fault. I guess I have horrible depth perception. Riiiiiiiiight.
So she's in the dressing rooms and I have this flamboyant gay employee following me around, occasionally asking me if I need help. He leaves towards the dressing rooms and out of nowhere comes hurrying out making a huge fuss. He looked really disturbed, almost to the point of tears.
I go into the dressing rooms to hand my sister something and she opens the door with this face. I can't even describe it. Almost like the face Jack Black makes when he really fucks up or sees a giant replica of some sort of food.
She starts to whisper. "I thought it was you."
"WUT?" I reply.
"I thought it was you knocking so I yelled… I yelled "HOLD ON, I'M GOING!! JESUS!!!"
At this point I'm on the verge of tears. How was she supposed to come out and face him as well as the other people in there?
She ran out of the store. It was beeeeeeeeautiful~*

RVV010 CAREY LAMPRECHT & RICHARD WEBB - "The Angel of Ward 5"
"Songs composed and performed under archways, in the street, in schoolyards, and other places with nice reverb to connect with the spirits who listen to music in such places. Carey (who plays with many bands including Jolie Holland) played the violin and Richard (currently making music with Lullabies for Falling Empires and sound art with Mari Matsutoya) played the guitar. Recorded on a panasonic rq-2102 in Seattle in 1996. Thanks for listening to these memories." Richard Webb, January 2013. To be released early Spring.
Listen: "The church of Al Green"
EPISODE I. January 17, 2013 41.3MB
This first edition contains some of the roots of Rustle VV: Antonin Artaud, 1967 Basement Tapes, Les Legions Noires, field recordings, etc.
PERFVGIVM & Johnny
"You Want Your Man"
To be released September 2012
"THE BORE" by Brendan Kerwin is now complete!
Another sample: White Pine
Embedded in rushing tape noise— the soft but suffocating sadness of Kerwin's compositions slowly creep in.
When he composed and recorded these songs in Asheville, NC he captured the poetic yearning every young man pines for. Few have the depth of intuition to convert such delicate emotions into a beautiful and haunting release such as this.
At times there are echoes of Elliot Smith, Kurt Cobain, Townes Van Zandt and Nick Drake— all the martyred saints of Kerwin's youth. He struggles with his inheritance but only threatens to fall into convention. Throughout the release the decay of the cassettes he recorded on, the soft warble of birds in the landscape and his shuffling, jumping and shimmering guitar keep these heavy songs from feeling flat.
At its best the tape is like Gerard Manely Hopkins' or Oscar Wilde's words resounding softly over ancient hills.

You Can Do: Red Lips
Perfect Red Lips
Like the perfect leopard-print stiletto, an amazing red lipstick can transform even the most basic black dress into something startlingly chic. Case in point: Despite some stiff competition from her ambitious right leg, Angelina Jolie's red lips won us over at the Oscars, and Rooney Mara's matte lipstick gives the classic look a modern edge.
The Basic Tips:
- Ditch the chapped lips! For a pitch-perfect crimson like Rihanna's, exfoliate lips with a wet washcloth, followed by a dab of lip balm.
- Fill in with a liner that matches the natural color of your lips -- not the lipstick.
- Apply color with a tiny brush, starting at the center of your mouth and blending outward.
The Basic Products:
- Available in four versatile shades, The Nude Liner by Smashbox ($17 each;sephora.com) is easy to blend, and lasts for hours.
- A blue-based crimson like MAC's Red ($15;maccosmetics.com) brightens up your smile, and neutralizes any discoloration on your teeth with its cool undertones.
- MAC's 318 Retractable Lip Brush ($23;maccosmetics.com) creates a seamless finish, and thanks to its compact size, is perfect for touch-ups on the go.
Problem: I can't find a shade for my fair skin.
Your complexion is prone to redness, so the first step should be evening out skin with a little foundation; otherwise, red can highlight ruddiness. When choosing a lipstick shade, look for sheer, blue-based reds. We loveRevlon's Color Burst lipstick in True Red($9; at drugstores). Though bold, these cool hues don't look overly harsh against pale skin tones like Gwen Stefani's.
Problem: I can't find a shade for my olive skin.
If you have medium skin like Minka Kelly, you can pull off almost any red -- even a super-bold hue like NARS's Heat Wave($24; narscosmetics.com) -- thanks to your complexion's warm undertones. To keep the overall look clean, avoid wearing bronzer, which can seem muddy when paired with intense lips. A touch of concealer and a quick swipe of mascara or black liner are all you need.
Problem: I can't find a shade for my dark skin.
This complexion can be warm or cool. If yours has golden tones, choose reds with a brown base: brick or rusty red. Is your skin more blue-based like Jennifer Hudson's? Seek out deep rubies with a hint of pink, like Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet in La Fascinante ($33;chanel.com), or a burgundy. Go easy on eyes -- let lips be the focus.
Problem: I'm scared it will look too harsh.
If a full-on red is too much commitment for you, try out a lip stain instead like YSL's Rouge Pur Couture Glossy Stain in Orange de Chine ($32; yslbeautyus.com). Just dab a bit of it on the inside center of your lips, then smack them together. The effect is subtle, rosy, and youthful -- like you've just finished a cherry Popsicle.
Problem: I don't know what kind of eye shadow to pair it with.
Although a statement lip works best with minimal eye makeup, that doesn't mean you have to swear off shadows altogether. Unless you want to channel an '80s revival, steer clear of bright shades, and stick to sheer neutrals like Solange Knowles. Even a more glamorous look with full lashes like Taylor Swift's doesn't look overdone if you use soft metallics and earthy hues.

Well, I must. I hate doing it. It seems almost like being rude to the Lord Mayor. But there's two things I can't stand—cheating in business is one and murder's another. I've got to interfere. You see, if one happens to know the right from wrong as we do, we've simply got to tell people who don't. But it isn't pleasant. I almost wish I'd never come.
Why, it's the greatest sport in the world. It's splendid.
I don't see it that way. To me those idols are just horrid murder. And this man owes money to this girl with no one to look after her, and he's got to pay. But I hate being rude to a man in a place like the Mansion House, even if he is black. Why, good Lord, who am I? It seems such cheek.
I say, Johnny, tell me about the lady. Is she pretty?
What, Miss Miralda? Yes.
But what I mean is—what's she like?
Oh, I don't know. It's very hard to say. She's, she's tall and she's fair and she's got blue eyes.
Yes, but I mean what kind of a person is she? How does she strike you?
Well, she's pretty hard up until she gets this money, and she hasn't got any job that's any good, and no real prospects bar this, and nobody particular by birth, and doesn't know anybody who is, and lives in the least fashionable suburb and can only just afford a second-class fare and . . .
Yes, yes, go on.
And yet somehow she sort of seems like a—like a queen.
Lord above us! And what kind of a queen?
O, I don't know. Well, look here, Archie, it's only my impression. I don't know her well yet. It's only my impression. I only tell you in absolute confidence. You won't pass it on to anybody, of course.
O, no. Go on.
Well, I don't know, only she seemed more like well, a kind of autocrat, you know, who'd stop at nothing. Well, no, I don't mean that, only . . .

Top Uses For a USB Flash Drive
USB flash drives are convenient little gadgets. I remember the days when we were using 1.44 MB floppy drives to move things around. What a pain those were! The capacity was pitiful, giving rise to utilities designed to split up a single file among multiple floppies. Then CDs became the norm. CDs offer much higher capacity, but they do not operate like a hard drive. They are also pretty slow. DVDs offer even higher capacity, but you are still dealing with all the restrictions (and annoyances) of optical media.
USB flash drives are so much better. Today, they offer respectable capacities. USB 2.0 makes them pretty fast. The BIOS of many motherboards even has the capability of booting from a USB drive. They are more dependable then optical media because they cannot be scratched. They are more dependable than even hard drives because they have no moving parts. So, there are a lot of possibilities for these little sticks.
Below, I will go over the most useful uses for your USB flash drive.
(1) Moving Files Around
This one is really obvious and goes without saying….so let me explain. Unless two computers are on the same network and sharing files, it can be a pain in the butt to move a file between them. If the files are small, email is usually a good way to go. For really large files, email may not work. CDs and DVDs are one way to go, but unless it is rewritable, you're essentially sacrificing a whole disc just to move a file. USB flash drives are much more convenient. Move files between your PCs. Even carry some of your important files around with you. Since almost any computer running Windows today can recognize and use your USB drive without any further setup, you have ultimate portability.
(2) Having a Portable Computing Environment
Some software is designed such that it can be run exclusively from a USB flash drive without needing to use the hard drive of a host computer. PortableApps is one such way of doing this. PortableApps is a free suite of programs that are designed to run totally from your USB drive. It includes programs such as Firefox, GIMP, Filezilla, OpenOffice, Thunderbird, Audacity, and more. All open source, and all hacked slightly so that they can operate in a self-contained environment. This means that you can use your own computing environment, with all your data, on any computer anywhere. Just plug in your USB drive and up comes your computer.
PortableApps is also updated quite often.
(3) PC Troubleshooting
Another useful way of using a USB drive is by loading on a bunch of diagnostic utilities for PC troubleshooting. Then, you can troubleshoot any PC you come across by sticking in the USB drive and running the diagnostic of your choice. This is commonly done by PC technicians. Need to do a virus scan on a computer without antivirus installed? Just move your personal favorite antivirus utility from the USB drive and run it (perhaps AVG). You can also store the rescue/recovery data for a PC on a USB drive and use it whenever you need to fix an ailing PC that won't boot properly.
(4) Booting Your Computer
Many motherboards in use today are equipped with BIOS that can boot from a USB drive. To take advantage of this, you will need to enter your BIOS and change the boot order so as to put your USB drive in front of your hard drive in the sequence. Then, you can install an operating system to your USB drive. This is sometimes referred to as Live USB. Now, obviously, you will not be able to install a copy of Windows in this fashion. Windows is too big and is not designed to run from a USB drive anyway. However, there are some smaller, portable versions of Linux that can fit on a USB drive, such as Puppy Linux or Damn Small Linux.
(5) Using Windows Vista ReadyBoost
ReadyBoost is a technology only available in Windows Vista which allows a USB drive to be used for caching in order to boost performance of the PC. It basically takes some of the active system files that are randomly called upon and caches them on the flash drive. ReadyBoost employs a logical system on the drive to make access very quick and the end result is that requests for data from the USB drive are said to be 80-100 times faster than a hard drive. To use this, you just plug a compatible USB drive into a Vista-powered machine. The AutoPlay dialog will provide an additional option for speeding up the system. Select that option and you will get a Properties dialog window for the drive with an extra tab for ReadyBoost. Windows will test the drive to see if it is up to specs for ReadyBoost. For a USB drive to be ReadyBoost ready, it needs to be over 256MB, have an access time faster than 1 ms, be capable of 2.5 MB.s reads and 1.75 MB/s writes. It is also recommended that the USB drive be 1-3 times larger than the amount of system memory. So, for example, I have 2 gigs in my desktop. I should have a USB drive that is at least 2 gigs in capacity.
(6) Sew a Pattern Hi-Tech Style
OK, I wanted to throw one in here that is just off the wall. Let's enter the world of sewing. Yes, many modern sewing machines today have USB ports on them. You can use the USB drive to put software updates onto the machine. You can also transfer patterns to the machine for automatic creation on your fabrics. Yes, it is the old time world of sewing merged with the world of technology.

Next to moving files between non-networked computers, my favorite use of USB flash drives is to load them up with .mp3 or .m4a files and stick them into the USB port of my car stereo (Sony CDX-GT410U). I can add an insane amount of music onto a 4GB USB drive. I've stopped carrying CDs in my car altogether. One of my favorite gadgets.
Blue August 27th, 2007 at 5:47 pm
How is it possible "Ready Boost" hasn't been recognized by the tech media as the biggest farce since crop circles?
Given the fact that today's system memory can run as fast as 2-8GB/s (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DDR2_SDRAM) and hard drives are good for 150MB/sec on up to 6GB/sec (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SATA2#Throughput), how is it possible that a 16MB USB 2.0 thumb drive is anything but horribly misleading?!
How much was MS paid by flash memory manufacturers to push this fake technology?
Alec September 23rd, 2009 at 2:05 pm
Ok First of all wikipedia. Not exaclty the most reliable source of information since anyone can change it. But even if its reliable the thumb drives aren't ment to replace RAM they are ment to supliment it. Its easier for a computer to draw information of a flash stick then a hard drive or RAM because they are designed for quick access of information Ram and Rom memory are ment to store more and take longer to search
Rick October 4th, 2009 at 4:00 pm
I don't think I am ready to go to a stick drive for my backup. I can't begin to tell you how many of those I have misplaced around the house. I guess if I ever move, we will find most of them.
What I like are the Western Digital Elements drive with the 1.5 or 2 TB backup. That will let me back up all three of my computers onto one drive with plenty of space left. When I buy or build a new computer, then it will be a simple matter to restore my data files as well as my apps.
Another drive I like is the Seagate FreeAgent Extreme I have long been a fan of the Seagate drive though some of them tend to be a bit noisy which is not a problem unless I am dealing with video.
There are many USB portable drives from which to choose and the price has literally fallen through the floor.
Mark June 20th, 2010 at 9:58 am
Not a chance it is quicker to access a USB stick than RAM. The architecture of the computer precludes it – data would have to be loaded from the USB stick TO RAM before it can be used. RAM is designed to be the fastest storage to access short of cache or the CPU registers. You'd be better off to supplement your RAM with MORE RAM. I'm sure in some (very specific) situations it makes a difference but Readyboost still sounds like a scam to me.
Blue August 27th, 2007 at 5:49 pm
(correction) 16MB/sec USB 2.0
CP August 28th, 2007 at 6:30 am
This is very true. I ordered my "readyboost" drive, and while I can still use it as a high capacity flash drive, I was half expecting to see amazing things. Unfortunately, I didn't notice any visible difference at all! If you do a search for "readyboost stats" etc then the figures really are damming!
Vino August 29th, 2007 at 10:49 pm
Readyboost only really helps computers with small amoutns of memory, like 512mb. But 1GB and higher workstations don't require the facility of Readyboost. It seems like it has been made redundant by cheap memory if you ask me.
Dale September 1st, 2007 at 9:42 am
I work on the computers at my elementary school. Periodically, I switch out computers that the teachers use. How do I move what is in their Outlook on the old machine to their new machine without losing anything?
ding42 December 1st, 2007 at 6:41 pm
Go to the file menu of Outlook and use the export feature. Just export everything to the default outlook file type (can't remember what it's called, starts with a p). Then just import that file into the new install with that same export/import feature.
Dave Jones April 4th, 2008 at 9:53 am
You also need to make sure that you copy the .pst file to the new computer (this file contains all of the emails received by that person). Perform a search on that PC for any files ending .pst and copy them to a safe location. Then copy that file back to the ame location on the new PC.

The play is based on the journal and stories written by senior class president C.J. Smith Jr. in the final year of his life. CJ was a member of the Starlight community, a 1974 graduate of Providence High School and a student at IU Southeast when he died of a terminal illness just before his 19th birthday.

Dream of lock tanking? We have had some encounters with lock tanking in mind! Searing Pain originally was a big threat grab. The twins in AQ40 in classic, in SSC and with sl/sl for BC, Wrath saw the taunt ability in demo form and stats that allowed us to tank decently with our voidwalkers. There have been a few encounters in Cata that I have seen the tank bite the dust and soul burned out my voidwalker with health tunnel for the win. Tanking as a warlock is really just a matter of taking advantage of the resources blizzard throws our way. Hopefully they give demonform back its taunt.

The point is that Nether Plating doesn't foreshadow Demonology becoming a full-on tank spec, with the ability to queue as a tank and serve as the group's main tank. Obviously, the history of Warlock tanking is pretty cool regardless.

It could be a rough day for the fine people of Tahiti. After being annihilated by Nigeria in the opening game of the 2013 Confederations Cup, they will be taking on the best team in the world. It will be no easy task for the Tahitians to avoid an embarrassing loss, and you would have to believe that they realize that in the back of their heads.
With a win by Spain, they advance past the group stages of the tournament where they will meet either Brazil or Italy.
For Tahiti, they have to be looking simply for a moral victory in this game. If they can come away with a goal, that would be all this team could ask for.
How can you catch all of the action without missing a beat? We've got you covered with all of the necessary action you will need to tune in to the Spain vs. Tahiti match up.
Date: Wednesday, June 20
Start Time: 3 p.m. ET
Location: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Venue: Estádio do Maracanã
TV Info: ESPN
Live Stream: ESPN3.com
Who do you think will come out of this afternoon's action with the win? Share your thoughts in the comments section.

Jason Wahler, Katja Decker-Sadowski Planning Weddingby Free Britney at . Comments
Jason Wahler and Katja Decker-Sadowski are getting married.
That they're engaged is nothing new - but it could be a sealed deal within a year, according to the former Laguna Beach star's bride-to-be!
"We want to do it sooner rather than later," said Katja, a student at USC.
"My parents want me to finish school first and that won't be until 2010. So we want to do it probably a little bit before graduation, but I need my parents' help to plan the wedding!"
Added Jason Wahler (who used to date Lauren Conrad):
"And if her parents don't agree, it's a no-go! So we are looking, realistically, at 12 to 15 months from now.
Katja Decker-Sadowski and Jason Wahler: Still engaged and happy.
Jason and Katja are pitching a reality show - reportedly called 22 and Taken - and the wedding "will be a part, but it's not the focus of the show."
Even if they've got another year to go, he and Katja Decker-Sadowski have already gotten into marriage mode by moving in together."It's going well," Jason Wahler said.
"We have my assistant/best friend there too. It's kind of awkward, but what the hell!"
Katja Decker-Sadowski's take?
"It's like You, Me and Dupree! Sometimes it can be a little too much!"
At least they aren't living with Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag.
Asked about the pair (he detests them both), Jason Wahler laughed and said to his publicist, "I'm being very careful."
"I wish them the best of luck. Seriously, they're just not my type of people, so, I mean, I don't follow them, I don't care about them.
"They do their own thing," he added, "and I do my own thing."
hahaha ya right lauren is so ugly and desperate katjais so pretty mucchhh better!
jason shouldnt marry her! he could do sooo much better!!!
The groom looks sad because he's WASTED! Way to pick 'em Katja!
Yeah, Jason Wahler has husband material written all over him!!! People should not be allowed to marry before their frontal lobe is developed.
I wonder why the groom to be looks so sad?
please dont marry katja jason she looks like an ex hooter grl omg lauren and you were made for eachother go and win her back!!!!katja go and get a new head my god grl you are bloody ugly!!!you make amy winehouse look like a super model!!!
