Some of the features of our online exams are:
1. Time Limited - Like in real CPA exam, you will be challenged by a nagging timer to help you be conscious of the time it takes to answer each question and to finish the exams. The time is prominently displayed atop the examination page to remind you of the time remaining.
2. Skip and Go Back - This is a new feature that allows you to skip a hard question and proceed to the next one. Like in real world examinations, you now have the option to skip right at the questions that you feel will eat up much of your time and move to the next easy one. Here you can practice the strategy of "Easy First, Hard Last" approach in dealing with the CPA exams.
3. Feedback Mechanism - With our new CPA exam engine, you will be provided, at the end of each exam or quiz, with a detailed explanation of why an answer is right or wrong. These explanations help you master the subject at hand and can give you an idea on how some questions are structured to trick you. The same feedback system offers not only the explanation why your answer is right but more importantly, why it is wrong. This is, by far, the most important feature of the CPA exam engine.
Other features include unlimited exams, random questions and subject matter mastery through logical question categories. All these and more at the new PinoyCPAReview.com CPA Exam page.

Red Velvet Cupcake Lover
This was such a sweet letter from one of our fans we had to share!
My name is Bennie Cliatt. I just wanted to take a few minutes to share an unforgettable experience with you. Oct 22, 1964 was when I made my debut into this world. My wife, whom I love so dearly, was kind enough to stop by your store to bring me one of your cupcakes. Now my wife knows I'm a red velvet man. My family on my mother's side is from Georgia and on my daddy's side is from Alabama. Between these southern states my people can bake a mean red velvet cake. I've recently, over the years become so obsessed with red velvet cake to the point I would waste a full tank of gas driving around tasting red velvet cake from different restaurants. Stay with me, I'm almost finished When my wife of 16 years of marriage, whom I love with all my heart placed that cupcake in my hand to eat after I'd just finished my 16oz prime rib steak at Logan's Steakhouse, I knew something special was about to happen. So I asked the server to bring me some milk. Miss Wilder, I tell you no lie, when I sunk my teeth into your red velvet cupcake, it was as if the world stood still. At that moment the best way for me to describe it is, it was like I had lost my virginity for the first time. I mean OMG at that point I can honestly say I forgot that I was married. I mean that cupcake was better than sex! Miss Hollis, it took every thing in me to keep my composure. If I had cut lose everyone in the restaurant would have thought I'd escaped from the crazy house. I hope you've enjoyed my e-mail. I have attached photos of me eating your cupcake.

Vivus Strikes Back
Mohsin is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
VIVUS Inc (NASDAQ: VVUS) has lost approximately 60% of its share value, from its July peak of $29. This decline in stock price started to accelerate after the launch of Qsymia in September. However the stock has bounced back 8% since last week, due to positive reports about post-thanksgiving sales numbers for Qsymia. According to Bloomberg Industries-compiled data, prescriptions for Qsymia had risen 21%, by the end of November. Consensus sell-side valuations show that VVUS has a 100% upside at current levels. I would recommend investors to take advantage of this massive pull back and buy VVUS.
Free 2-week Trial
Initially, Vivus was marketing Qsymia to Physicians only, which resulted in lower than expected sales. There has been a strategy shift; Vivus is now also targeting consumers directly. The company has announced a 2-week free trial program to garner mass interest. It was high time for drastic steps, as prescription growth had been flat at around 1200 new scripts (per week) and was declining by mid-November. According to data compiled by IMS health new prescriptions fell 3.8% and Symphony Health reported a 5.7% increase, for the week ending November 16.
According to company officials, the 2-week trial is not the only step taken, to improve sales. The company is also trying to persuade payers that do not cover the drug, to cut their co-pays. A key challenge for Vivus remains the retail distribution of Qsymia. The company is not allowed to distribute through retail pharmacies and distribution is restricted to mail order because of stricter safety guidance on Qsymia. The drug is considered harmful for pregnant women because studies show that Qsymia can cause birth defects, if administered to pregnant women. Other major side-effects include an increase in heart rate and metabolic acidosis.
Why Qsymia and not Belviq?
As I have said above, Qsymia is considered less safe, even as compared to Arena Pharmaceutical's (NASDAQ: ARNA) Belviq. However studies show that Qsymia is more effective. During clinical trials Qsymia induced an average weight loss of 23 pounds, while Belviq managed only a 13 pound decrease in weight of the study subject.
What's the potential for Qsymia?
The obesity drug market is still young and there is still a lot of room for growth. According to Financial Times, approximately 33% Americans suffer from obesity and experts are increasingly calling it a disability rather than a lifestyle choice. According to these stats the company has approximately a 10 million patient market in the United States alone. According to BioPharm Insight data Qsymia sales should reach $1.6 billion by 2019.
The recent decline in value now presents a lot of upside potential for Vivus. The mean sell side target on VVUS is $23, approximately a 100% upside on the current price. I believe the challenges are not over for Vivus, but at these price levels the company is extremely undervalued (as sell side estimates show). A major factor in increasing Qsymia sales would be insurance coverage of the drug and its availability at retailers. Qsymia is currently being covered by only 30% insurers and I believe this coverage will rise. According to research, obesity control can result in cost savings of $50,000 per year, and this cost saving can be an incentive for insurance companies to increase coverage for obesity control.
Figure 1: Analyst Opinion from Yahoo Finance
As the table above shows, only a single analyst has a sell rating on VVUS and the majority of investors are bullish on the stock. I believe these price levels make Vivus attractive and I recommend investors to go long.

Water, water everywhere ~ how pure is the water you are drinking? Do you realize how important water is for the functioning of your organs, for digesting your food and even for the life of your cells?
Water is composed of hydrogen and oxygen, with the chemical formula of H2O and is a vital ingredient for life's existence. From Wikipedia:
Much of the universe's water may be produced as a byproduct of star formation. When stars are born, their birth is accompanied by a strong outward wind of gas and dust. When this outflow of material eventually impacts the surrounding gas, the shock waves that are created compress and heat the gas. The water observed is quickly produced in this warm dense gas.[15]
Water has been detected in interstellar clouds within our galaxy, the Milky Way. Water probably exists in abundance in other galaxies, too, because its components, hydrogen and oxygen, are among the most abundant elements in the universe. Interstellar clouds eventually condense into solar nebulae and solar systems such as ours.
From a biological standpoint, water has many distinct properties that are critical for the proliferation of life that set it apart from other substances. It carries out this role by allowing organic compounds to react in ways that ultimately allow replication. All known forms of life depend on water. Water is vital both as a solvent in which many of the body's solutes dissolve and as an essential part of many metabolic processes within the body. Metabolism is the sum total of anabolism and catabolism. In anabolism, water is removed from molecules (through energy requiring enzymatic chemical reactions) in order to grow larger molecules (e.g. starches, triglycerides and proteins for storage of fuels and information). In catabolism, water is used to break bonds in order to generate smaller molecules (e.g. glucose, fatty acids and amino acids to be used for fuels for energy use or other purposes). Water is thus essential and central to these metabolic processes. Therefore, without water, these metabolic processes would cease to exist, leaving us to muse about what processes would be in its place, such as gas absorption, dust collection, etc.
Water is also central to photosynthesis and respiration. Photosynthetic cells use the sun's energy to split off water's hydrogen from oxygen. Hydrogen is combined with CO2 (absorbed from air or water) to form glucose and release oxygen. All living cells use such fuels and oxidize the hydrogen and carbon to capture the sun's energy and reform water and CO2 in the process (cellular respiration).
Water is also central to acid-base neutrality and enzyme function. An acid, a hydrogen ion (H+, that is, a proton) donor, can be neutralized by a base, a proton acceptor such as hydroxide ion (OH−) to form water. Water is considered to be neutral, with a pH (the negative log of the hydrogen ion concentration) of 7. Acids have pH values less than 7 while bases have values greater than 7.
A huge factor in being healthy is consuming lots of pure, toxin-free, water. If you are drinking bottled water, you are drinking petrochemical toxins and you are harming yourself! People in the U.S. buy more than half a billion gallons of bottled water every WEEK. That's a lot of water, a lot of plastic bottles, and a big part of our everyday lives. Check out this video and discover that it requires oil to create water bottles, that filtered tap water has been bottled and labeled for your consumer dollars and other important facts!
The human body is anywhere from 55% to 78% water depending on body size.[34] To function properly, the body requires between one and seven liters of water per day to avoid dehydration; the precise amount depends on the level of activity, temperature, humidity, and other factors. Most of this is ingested through foods or beverages other than drinking straight water. It is not clear how much water intake is needed by healthy people, though most advocates agree that 6–7 glasses of water (approximately 2 liters) daily is the minimum to maintain proper hydration.
Did you know that water is also crucial for our body to be able to cleanse itself internally, through our kidney's, intestines and normal elimination processes, but also through breathing and perspiration?
There is a natural solution to purifying your water as well as enhancing the amount of oxygen in your water by adding the benefits of aromatherapy in the form of therapeutic grade essential oils to your water! These oils are natural chelators of toxins, so you must be sure to use a glass when adding our oils to your water, otherwise you will be drinking chemical soup! One of the benefits of adding therapeutic grade essential oils to your water, is that they will help your body eliminate toxins, petroleum residues, metals and other harmful substances – all naturally.
Lemon essential oil is a wonderful purifying agent. Just add one drop to 8 oz of water and enjoy a refreshing, revitalizing and healthy drink! Did you know it takes 3,000 lemons to produce 1 kilo of essential oil? Lemon oil has been documented to kill meningococcus bactera in just 15 minutes by Dr. Jean Valnet, and to kill typhoid bacilli in just one hour, Staphylococcus aureus in two hours and Pneumococcus bacteria within three hours! Lemon has also been used to cleanse the skin, reduce wrinkles and acne. I also use Lemon mixed with purified water in a spray bottle to clean my organic vegetables. Just inhaling the aroma of Lemon essential oil will boost your emotions and bring joy to your life! Therapeutic grade Lemon essential oil contains a molecule called Limonene, 59-73%, which has been proven to reverse cancer cells so I recommend ingesting Lemon on a regular basis as a preventative measure.
Lemon essential oil is also used as a wellness solution for circulatory issues, arteriosclerosis, obesity, parasites, urinary tract infections, varicose veins, relieving anxiety and hypertension, and digestive issues. The fragrance of lemon essential oil was also found to increase mental accuracy and concentration by University researchers in Japan. And a 1995 MIE University study found that citrus fragrances boosted immunity, induced relaxation and reduced depression. Lemon also prevents cellular mutation and enhances DNA repair (Reddy et al., 1998) as well as helping to retain an alkaline environment in the digestive system.
Another wonderful choice of oils to add to your water is Orange therapeutic grade essential oil which contains 85-96% of the molecule Limonene. The aroma of Orange oil always makes me happy and I love knowing that I am being proactive in my health care by ingesting this oil every day. Orange oil has also been studied for its ability to inhibit tumor growth in over 50 clinical studies.
My third choice of oils to add to my water is Grapefruit therapeutic grade essential oil which contains 88-95% Limonene. Grapefruit oil is a wonderful metabolic stimulant, antiseptic, detoxifier, and for those with cellulite, Grapefruit is a wonderful fat-dissolver! It also helps the liver to function properly.
Another choice is Tangerine therapeutic grade essential oil which is also rich in Limonene at 85-93%! The aroma of Tangerine promotes happiness as well as boosts the immune system and it has been used for circulatory and digestive issues.
And for a wonderful pick-me-up, add just a touch of Peppermint therapeutic grade essential oil to 8 oz of purified water! I recommend using just a little bit since our Peppermint is very concentrated; here's a tip: insert a toothpick into the top of the Peppermint oil bottle and then swish it around in your glass of water. You can always add more to your liking! Peppermint is wonderful to ingest for digestive issues as well as liver and respiratory diseases (Jean Valnet, M.D.). Did you know that just inhaling this oil can increase your mental accuracy by 28%? (Dr. William N. Dember, University of Cincinnati) Peppermint oil can also help you to reduce excess weight because of its ability to stimulate the brain's satiety center in the hypothalamus (Alan Hirsch, MD) as well as restoring the sense of taste because it stimulates the trigeminal nerve. Peppermint is also very effective in eliminating headaches (University of Kiel).
And if you like the mint family, Spearmint is also a very refreshing therapeutic grade essential oil to add to your drinking water which has also been shown to increase metabolism and soothe digestive issues.
With the recent oil spill in the Gulf, we must look at our own bodies and the water within our bodies ~ are we polluting ourselves? I would say yes, the majority of humans on this planet are polluting themselves – as above, so below. Mother Earth is showing us through her own body how we are each contributing to the current chemical and toxic reality that humans have created. The plants have been here for millions of years, evolving and ever-changing and are ready to help us shift our consciousness as well as purify our minds and our bodies.
I invite you to purchase therapeutic grade Lemon, Orange, Grapefruit, Tangerine, Peppermint and Spearmint essential oils today and have fun experimenting with them as you add them to your water to restore health and well-being, add much needed oxygen to your cells, and detoxify and cleanse your internal water!

It was 1998 and the dot-com boom was in full effect. I was making websites as a 22 year old freelance programmer in NYC. I charged my first client $1,400. My second client paid $5,400. The next paid $24,000. I remember the exact amounts — they were the largest checks I'd seen up til that point.
Then I wrote a proposal for $340,000 to help an online grocery store with their website. I had 5 full time engineers at that point (all working from my apartment) but it was still a ton of dough. The client approved, but wanted me to sign a contract — everything had been handshakes up til then.
No prob. Sent the contract to my lawyer. She marked it up, sent it to the client. Then the client marked it up and sent it back to my lawyer. And so on, back and forth for almost a month. I was inexperienced and believed that this is just how business was done.
Annoyed by my lawyering, the client eventually gave up and hired someone else.
But lucky enough, another big company came knocking. A fortune 500 company needed an e-commerce site. I wrote a $400,000 proposal (ahh, the boom days…). The client okay'd it and gave me a contract to sign.
This time, instead of sending it to my lawyer, I sent it to my Dad — a lifelong entrepreneur.
"Just sign it," he said, calmly.
"But it has all kinds of crazy stuff in it!" I replied. "It says I'm personally liable if anything goes wrong! It says I owe them money if it's late!" and so on.
"Just sign it," he said.
"But what if something happens?? What if the site crashes? What if I'm late? What if..??"
"Do you think any of that stuff is going to happen?" he asked.
"Probably not. But what if it does?"
"Then you know what you do?" he said. "Tell them, 'fucking sue me.'"
He was right. I got the job, they paid, things went well, nobody got sued.
Then there was the time I wanted to hire my first full time employee. I was apprehensive to do it because I only had enough money to pay him for 2 months, unless I got another client fast.
"Worry about that in 2 months," Dad said.
He worked for me for several years.
This lesson in total disregard for risk served me well. They say entrepreneurs are risk takers. I think of myself as too lazy and irresponsible to fully understand the risk.
It works for me.
I'm not sure what the lesson is here.

"All parents damage their children. It cannot be helped. Youth, like pristine glass, absorbs the prints of its handlers. Some parents smudge, others crack, a few shatter childhoods completely into jagged little pieces, beyond repair." - Mitch Albom

F1 2011 Review (Playstation 3)
Posted by Christophor Rick (TheSuperGuido), Oct 05, 2011 20:59
F1 2011 comes back with a vengeance and all the official drivers, teams and circuits in the 2011 FIA FORMULA ONE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP including the latest rule changes and it is everything you could want in an F1 game.
While multiplayer was included in last year's version of the game, it's been super-powered this time round. Online multiplayer? Sure. But what about local split screen racing? Yes, for the first time ever in HD F1 gaming history. Plus a new co-op mode.
Full grid, online racing is also achievable with 16 players and and up to 8 AI racers to give the full experience. On top of all that, there are two new tracks, more intense Be the Driver, new drivers, and tires.
But you're not here to listen to a list of the new features like DRS and KERS, and day and night racing, you're here to find out if it's all it could be. So sit down, strap in and let's get up to speed.
F1 2011 offers four preset levels of difficulty from easy to pro and the ability to customize on the fly. So for those less experienced racers, if you still want some guidance in the corners at a particular circuit, no worries, you can do that. You can also toggle things like braking assist, ABS, traction control, etc.
This is great because, obviously, each gamer is different, some want simulation to the point of realism while others want a more arcade-style of racing with foot to the floor action. In essence, there is something for everyone here and that means the game can appeal to the most novice of F1 fans as well as the most skilled.
Granted, F1 is known more for technical racing than it is for anything else and the lower the level of difficulty the less you have to worry about it all. But it's still a fun experience at the lowest setting for some.

"Good, solid recipe" is the perfect description. Nothing fancy, but a tasty and satisfying weeknight dinner. I made a half batch for 3 people and had leftovers even though 2 of us went back for seconds. I used whole wheat penne, a very flavorful homemade tomato sauce with lots of herbs, and also sauteed some onion and garlic with the beef and seasoned it with dried thyme, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. I didn't have mozzarella, so I used pre-shredded Mexican blend cheese mixed in with the pasta and then topped it with a mixture of smoked gouda and fresh grated parmesan. My only complaint was that it was almost *too* meaty... I would add a little more pasta next time. Served with fresh bread and green beans... good comfort food!

Did not care for the rigatoni. Too much trouble without the wows.

Excellent recipe! Husband gave it a 10!

This is a regular in my kitchen. Nice and easy when you can't think of anything else to make. I can't believe it's only 300 calories per serving!
Bunnymom321 Posted: 08/22/11
Excellent, easy, and quick recipe! It will be a staple in our home.
kemorton1986 Posted: 04/06/12
This was probably the most delicious baked pasta dish (besides lasagna of course). I will completely make this again... very yummy and easy to make!
kaseybrock Posted: 03/03/12
This tastes great and is very easy to make. I found it to be extremely satisfying and filling for 300 calories a serving. Instead of homemade Tomato Sauce, I used store bought. It tastes very similar to spaghetti - so I wouldn't say it is really unique or special - but I think it is much easier to have accurate serving sizes out of a casserole dish. So if you are really watching what you eat - this is a good choice! The leftovers heat up great!!
charoulli Posted: 01/13/13
My husband is a Rigatoni fan, his favorite type of pasta. So I saw this and thought I'd give it a try. We loved it! Very tasty. I also made the tomato sauce and froze the leftovers which I used again after a couple of weeks but with tagliateli since I didn't have any rigatoni on hand. We also ate the leftovers the next day.

Caring for Bamboo Floors?
Good Questions
Hi there! I'm in the process of buying my first house, and learned that the home I'm looking into has bamboo floors. I love how they look and feel — but I know NOTHING about the care, advantages or disadvantages that tag along. Help?
Sent by Meredith
Editor: There are hundreds of variations of bamboo and bamboo floors! It's important to understand exactly WHAT you have! Who has advice? Please share sites and suggestions with Meredith in the comments — thanks!

Image: Re-Nest | EcoTimber introduces Formaldehyde-Free Bamboo Flooring
19 Comments
The biggest advantage is that the color penetrates the entire thickness of the planks -- when you want to redo them, a light sanding and new polyurethane are all that's needed -- no staining.
Find out the kind of bamboo floors that are installed- are they the floating kind? Nailed in? The realtor should be able to find out easily enough.
We had nailed in strand bamboo installed 2 years ago in our kitchen & dining rooms. The flooring company recommended daily sweeping (esp. since it's a high traffic area) & then either using a microfiber floor cloth or vacuuming as needed. It's fine to damp mop it with hot water/ white vinegar mixture weekly, taking care to dry up any water spots. Basically, treat it just like a hard wood floor.
Congratulations on purchasing your 1st home!
My friend had been assured that bamboo floors are tough, and was disappointed after putting one in her kitchen. Her dog's claws, her own shoes' heels, and the breakfast nook chair legs quickly left permanent scratches and dents in it. I thought it still looked good and gained character with use, although it quickly stopped looking new.
Never, ever wear heels on them.
It scratches like crazy.
sometimes they get sun bleached, depending on the manufacturer!
You'll really be able to tell the difference between the high traffic areas and less used areas. Chair legs can mark them up, in addition to the other things listed by other commenters.
Bamboo floors are incredibly soft - so if you have dogs, kids, wear shoes or move furniture around - they get scratched up pretty fast. on the other hand - if you put those felt floor protectors on everything, don't wear shoes and don't have kids or pets - they can stay pretty nice looking.
for cleaning and maintaining - just clean like you would normal hardwood floors.
The photo sure is gorgeous, but ack! All these comments make the floors seem pretty scary to take care of. I'd love to see a photo of a bamboo floor that has the "well loved" look. Anyone got one?
we have bamboo in an institutional setting and have found that the floors scratch easily and are a little "fussy" to clean.
I had bamboo floors installed in my kitchen (dark fiber strand). They are extremely strong, extremely dent resistant, and incredibly fragile when it comes to scratches. The tiniest bit of grit under your shoe will leave a scratch.
The issue with my floor is not the bamboo itself so much as the "diamond" finish that smith & fong put on it. It is utter rubbish. I've had it for about a year and a half and I expect I'll have to sand the whole thing down and re-do it in another 3 years. I still love the floors, but I expect they won't really come into their own until I re-do the finish with something that isn't just a flimsy coat of plastic on top.
Everyone is right about them scratching easily. Pets nails trimmed and if ever to have a no shoe policy this would be the time. get slippers just for indoor use only.
Dirt should never sit there for any period of time. Use a dust mop and vacuum.
Use a non toxic, environmentally low pH neutral cleaner with damp mop, they do not take to a lot of water.
Be sure not to use a vacuum with a beater bar.
Get a vacuum that is suitable.
The Bona system is the best product to use for cleaning them. Get the one that comes with the dust mop.
I hate to be rude, but why write into AT - google answers that question pretty thoroughly. Perhaps I'm disgruntled because I once sent in a specific design challenge I had and got no response from AT.
They are a nice eco choice, but they do dent and scratch very easily, but they still look nice. Just sweep and damp mop, never leave water on them.
Please see that it is borer treated, although we had ours treated it had still had some borer and you would find powders falling. We had put it just for show in our ceiling instead of wooden rafters all over the house. Finally we had inject some more of the chemical to treat it and finally it has stopped. It can spread to other furnitures too.
there is a huge range of hardnesses in bamboo floors. You need to figure out if you have horizontal or vertical laminations or (if you're lucky) the strand type of bamboo flooring. Vertical laminations are the worst because the expose the softer inner part of the bamboo. Strand is the toughest because it is compressed into very sturdy planks. Carmelized is also slightly softer than natural. Also there is even variations between manufacturers and planks because not all bamboo is created equal. The larger, older pieces tend to be tougher but of course take longer to reach maturity and are more expensive. The best bamboo floor will be much more durable than your average oak floor, but the less expensive stuff can be like finishing your floor with pine. Beware!
Also if your bamboo floor is stained (i.e. not natural or caramelized) that means that any scratches will show a different color underneath.
We bought our townhouse because it had beautiful bamboo floors.
Unlike others, I have to say we have not had any problem with scratches or dents. We didn't install them so I do not know anything about them other then I use BONA cleaner (I was told not to use regular hardwood floor cleaner) and use a microfiber pad for cleaning.
Thank you so much for all your advice! I asked this a little while ago, and all your answers are incredibly helpful =) We moved forward with the house, so I've bookmarked this to keep all your ideas in mind. Thanks again everyone!!!
No-shoes policy, here we come!
And Joey C - I asked this on AT because I wanted to hear current advice from the great home- and house-minded folks that frequent this site! I did google search, but not everything went as in-depth as many of these terrific suggestions. Sorry your question didn't get answered, but AT is a great resource, and many people are willing to help and give some great advice.

Englewood, CO (Sports Network) - The Denver Broncos announced they have released linebacker D.J. Williams and quarterback Caleb Hanie on Monday.
"We appreciate the contributions made by D.J. Williams during his time with the Broncos," said Broncos executive vice president of football operations John Elway. "He was a solid player with this team for a number of years, showing a lot of versatility at linebacker. Our organization wishes D.J. all the best going forward."
Williams, 30, played in seven games last season before being suspended by the NFL for failing a mandatory league drug test.
Over a nine-year career, all with Denver, Williams has recorded 824 tackles, 20 1/2 sacks and two interceptions.
Hanie, 27, was inactive for all 16 games in 2012. In 10 games -- including four starts -- with the Bears (2008-11) and Broncos, he has 679 passing yards, three touchdowns, 10 interceptions and a 50.9 completion percentage.

South Carolina Mother Jailed Because She Let Her 9-Year-Old Daughter Play in the Park Unsupervised
Here are the facts: Debra Harrell works at McDonald's in North Augusta, South Carolina. For most of the summer, her daughter had stayed there with her, playing on a laptop that Harrell had scrounged up the money to purchase. (McDonald's has free WiFi.) Sadly, the Harrell home was robbed and the laptop stolen, so the girl asked her mother if she could be dropped off at the park to play instead.
Harrell said yes. She gave her daughter a cell phone. The girl went to the park—a place so popular that at any given time there are about 40 kids frolicking—two days in a row. There were swings, a "splash pad," and shade. On her third day at the park, an adult asked the girl where her mother was. At work, the daughter replied.
The shocked adult called the cops. Authorities declared the girl "abandoned" and proceeded to arrest the mother.
Direct source: http://www.wjbf.com/story/25915218/north-augusta-mother-charged-with-unlawful-conduct-towards-a-child
The war on working class Black women in the U.S. continues apace. This time, a mother of a 9-year old child is arrested and jailed for the "crime" of dropping her daughter off at the park to play with other children while she had to go to work at a minimum wage job at McDonald's (which fittingly happens to be located inside a WalMart).
Now the woman's poor child is in the hands of the South Carolina state authorities [a state which STILL proudly flies the Confederate Flag at its Capitol building].
The irony is that the justification employed by state officials is that the mother put the child at risk by leaving her in the park where some random strangers might have just come along and kidnapped her child. As it turns out, that is exactly what happened, but the kidnappers were the police! They came along and snatched this woman's child and now she risks losing her daughter forever!

Examples: # Xephyr :1 -screen 800x600 -a -v -noreset # DISPLAY=:1 # /path/to/qtile/qtile or using built in code:<ref> https: // groups.google.com/group/qtile-dev/browse_thread/thread/26191253a8190568 qtile-dev Google Group </ref> # echo "exec qtile" > .start_qtile ; xinit .start_qtile -- :1 For further information, see the Documentation section. dmenu Qtile uses dmenu as the application launcher. # emerge dmenu You can run dmenu from a keybind in the config.py. xinitrc An example of preparing Qtile to start with a startup-session script for autostarting apps. My ~/.xinitrc #!/bin/zsh xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources xcompmgr & if [[ $1 == "i3" ]]; then exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session i3 -V -d all > ~/.i3/i3log-$(date +'%F-%k-%M-%S') 2>&1 elif [[ $1 == "razor" ]]; then exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch startrazor elif [[ $1 == "awesome" ]]; then exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch awesome elif [[ $1 == "qtile" ]]; then exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch ~/.qtile-session else echo "Choose a window manager" fi My ~/.qtile-session conky -c ~/.conky/conkyrc_grey & sh ~/.fehbg & dropbox & X and RandR NOTE: RandR and Xinerama do not play together. Use one or the other. I use an AMD HD 6870 with 3 monitors (2 DVI and 1 with an AMD validated Mini DisplayPort™ to DVI dongle). Install xrandr: # emerge x11-apps/xrandr and if you want a GUI with xrandr: # emerge x11-misc/arandr If you do not have X configured yet, follow the link on the Gentoo Wiki My xorg.conf.d folder for example: 30-screen.conf Since the names of the monitors are already known in xrandr, I just use those names in my 30-screen.conf configuration. It doesn't matter what you use in your X configuration however. Once you have X configured however you like, start qtile with either: # startx or, in a case similar to mine, # xinit qtile Starting with CDM Another good tool for starting qtile is CDM (short for Console Display Manager). To make it work, just merge cdm # emerge -avt cdm and add it to autostart with # cp /usr/share/cdm/zzz-cdm-profile.sh /etc/profile.d/zzz-cdm-profile.sh Now add to /etc/X11/cdm/cdmrc the following lines: binlist=( "/usr/bin/xinit ${HOME}/.start_qtile --:0" "/bin/bash --login" "/bin/zsh" ) namelist=(qtile "Console bash" "Console zsh") flaglist=(C C C) consolekit=no and check that ${HOME}/.start_qtile contains just the following exec qtile Notes <references/> Resources Qtile on Github Sample Configurations Hacking Qtile Retrieved from "http://www.funtoo.org/index.php?title=Qtile&oldid=2137" Category: Desktop


text: Mariah put on a big show this past weekend in São Paolo, Brazil and we can't help but notice she may have a bun in the oven! (Congrats Mimi?!) But celebrity gossip aside, the Karmaloop ladies are extremely excited to see our in-house line, Double Dees, gracing the stage of the Festa Do Peão de Boiadeiros way down in this lively Brazilian hub. Even more titillating (notice the pun?? ha!) is to see the "Diva Next Door" put her own twist on the You Like Fun Tunic with rhinestone detailing. We hope Mariah likes Double Dees as much as we love her sing-in-the-shower approved power ballads and flirty pop hits. Transport yourself to the southern hemisphere for a replay of 2005′s catchiest summer tune below.

Commenting on the publication of a Welsh Government-commissioned report – that recommends 'a new Welsh approach to the publication of death rates in hospitals' and concludes that 'RAMI cannot be used to compare the quality of care between different healthcare systems' – Welsh Conservative Shadow Minister for Health Darren Millar AM said:
"For Welsh Conservatives - the answer is not to blame the data - the answer is to look at the problems.
"I have serious concerns over the reform of statistics that recently showed 11 out of 17 district general hospitals have higher death rates than should be expected.
"Public confidence in the Welsh NHS has taken a big knock in recent years due to poor performance against key targets. But, instead of getting to grips with these issues and investing in our NHS, Carwyn Jones and Welsh Labour have signalled an intention to scrap the targets and measures which paint them in a bad light.
"Today Welsh Conservatives will lead a Senedd debate calling for an independent Keogh-style inquiry into standards of care in the Welsh NHS.
"Such an inquiry will help to expose the root causes of poor performance in the Welsh NHS and put these right once and for all.
"Professor Keogh has himself raised concerns over Welsh mortality data and senior Labour MP Ann Clwyd has supported our calls for an inquiry.
"Instead of giving excuses for poor performance and denying that a problem exists, we need to see determined action from the Welsh Labour Government to ensure that hardworking NHS staff have the resources to provide the high quality services which patients deserve."
