A tale of love and revenge … and stamps
"Elaborately designed fantasy fun" —The Observer (U.K.)
Moist von Lipwig (Richard Coyle, Lorna Doone) is a con man and a charlatan—and he loves every minute of it. From confidence tricks to far-reaching financial fraud, von Lipwig revels in hoodwinking, fleecing, and otherwise ripping off the citizens of Ankh-Morpork. When the law finally catches up to him, the city's shrewd leader, Lord Vetinari (Charles Dance, Game of Thrones), offers von Lipwig a choice: he can take over the derelict post office . . . or suffer a painful death.
The reluctant postmaster finds himself in charge of thousands of undelivered letters, commanding a charmingly deranged staff of misfits, and at odds with corrupt businessman Reacher Gilt (David Suchet, Agatha Christie's Poirot), who will stop at nothing to crush his competition. Along the way, he falls under the spell of the icy Adora Dearheart (Claire Foy, Little Dorrit), much to her chagrin. In this delightful adaptation of Terry Pratchett's Discworld novel, Moist von Lipwig needs every ounce of his considerable charm and cunning to restore the post office, trounce Gilt, and win Adora's affections.

"A proud man is always looking down on things and people; and, of course, as long as you're looking down, you can't see something that's above you."
"Great champions have an enormous sense of pride. The people who excel are those who are driven to show the world and prove to themselves just how good they are."
"If you believe in yourself and have dedication and pride - and never quit, you'll be a winner. The price of victory is high but so are the rewards."
"The Christian faith from the beginning, is sacrifice: the sacrifice of all freedom, all pride, all self-confidence of spirit; it is at the same time subjection, self-derision, and self-mutilation"
"Discipline is based on pride, on meticulous attention to details, and on mutual respect and confidence. Discipline must be a habit so ingrained that it is stronger than the excitement of the goal or the fear of failure."

Features and benefits of the Callaway RAZR X hybrid:
Clubface with zero roll produces higher launch angle on shots hit low on the face, increasing distance with softer landings.
Precision shaping of the face thickness in each club increases the size of the sweetspot which in turn generates hotter ball speeds for greater distance.
Increased headsize on standard models increases forgiveness and produces shots
that fly higher, longer and straighter.
Standard models have an offset hosel that assists in squaring the clubface at impact while building confidence at address. Tour models have less offset to enhance workability.

OK, prepare to laugh! It's been a long time since I bought a new club - I usually inherit my son's cast-offs!. I played my very first shot with this club off the first fairway of my first round in 2014. My partner said 'wow, great shot.' Then I noticed I hadn't removed the plastic wrapping from the clubhead!! So it just got better. Nice feel; nice balance; great boost to an ageing golfer whose long irons do not always merit a 'wow'.

I have always played irons better than woods. I am delighted with the extra distance that I now get from my Hybrid which feels more like an iron.

Tunica County sets $47 million budget
At a special meeting on Sept. 17, the Tunica County Board of Supervisors approved a $47 million budget and a 30 percent increase in ad valorem taxes. The county's next fiscal year begins Oct. 1.
According to notes provided by county administrator Clifton Johnson, the budget represents a three percent decrease from the last fiscal year. Approximately $3.4 million generated from the tax increase will be used to pay "debt service."
Various entities will see reductions in appropriations from Tunica County. Tunica Museum received a $79,000 reduction from the previous year, and Paul Battle Arena's budget was reduced $75,000. The airport commission's funding was reduced $45,000. The solid waste budget was reduced by $41,000, and Tunica National's was cut by $12,000. Two positions have been eliminated in the Recreation Department and one position will be eliminated in the county administrator's department with the retirement of an employee in January.

Takes one back to Nixon, who said he "accepted the responsibility" for Watergate. When asked if that meant the blame, he wouldn't answer. People ask why on earth Clinton would accept any liability; why, in fact, she would want to help the guy who used racist tactics to defeat her in 2008. Simple. For her, Obama MUST win. Obama loses and Romney is probably in the White House until 2021, by which time she will be too old, even more haggard-looking, and yesterday's news, having been out of government office since 2013.

Bought 520 two and half weeks ago. When I swtiched it on this morning, the touch screen didn't work at all (I need put in PIN). Tried to switch it off (reboot), couldn't do it either -- need touch screen to turn it off -- great design? Windows 8 or Nokia's fault?
Then I opened the back cover, took battery out, waited, put battery in, switched on again. This time the touch screen worked.
Is this a hardware issue or software issue?
Solved! Go to Solution.
12-09-2013 8:34
that's probably a software issue, just keep an eye on it to see if this happens frequently.
you can reset your phone without using the touch screen, keep the volume down and power/lock key together pressed until your phone vibrates, about 10 seconds, and your phone will restart. this procedure has same effect as removing the battery

The fact that I'm leaving for Birmingham in six days, well, actually all the Erasmus-an-year-abroad-alone thing, scares me so much and I think that people don't really get how this thing is driving me mad.
This nine months mean a lot to me, more than what an Erasmus generally mean to people. I feel like this is my only chance to start over, to change everything I don't like about myself and my life. I want this thing to be the turning point of my life. Someday I wanna think about my Erasmus and say that it was what changed everything.
What if I screw up everything? If my crappy lazy attitude makes me wasting this opportunity? The truth is that I'm afraid of letting me down. I'm afraid I've overrated myself, that I won't be able to do anything when I'll get there.
And this is my confession. I think that if I screw up, I'll stay forever in this place, with all the same people, doing a job that I hate and live unhappily ever after.

Globalization hasn't killed borders; it's made them more interesting. We commissioned three leading writers to travel the world's most impenetrable fault lines, the global gray zones where countries and people -- and our often flawed ideas about them -- meet. And this year FP and the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting is publishing ebooks with stories from these critical frontiers, starting with Peter Chilson's We Never Knew Exactly Where: Dispatches From the Lost Country of Mali and Matthieu Aikins's Bird of Chaman, Flower of the Khyber: Riding Shotgun From Karachi to Kabul in a Pakistani Truck.
You can also read excerpts from the books in our January/February issue below to follow the surprises these writers found, from the coup that awaited Chilson in Mali, once an African model of democracy, to Matthieu Aikins's wild, smoke-filled journey over the Hindu Kush in a Pakistani truck.

Purchased an MTD snow blower, single stage model 2M1. It started up initially, but the engine died. When we tried to start it again, the pull cord seemed to be jammed - it would not pull out farther than about 4 or 5 inches. It looks like it might have a bad wrap on the pulley or something else is in a bind. Can this be fixed, or does it need to be returned for service?Be the first to comment

Monday The 13th
You don't even know the half of our moving day adventure. We glossed over it because we knew you deserved empty shots of our old place and pics of the new house's interior – but we couldn't let this story go untold. So take a moment to pantomime the buckling of your seatbelt and get ready to enjoy the ride. As we mentioned earlier, the day started off with an unexpected surprise: a snowstorm. And even though it wasn't a Friday, the thirteenth of this month (aka Monday) surely lived up to its less than lucky reputation. Which is so not a good thing when it's closing/moving day.
Sure the snow was pretty, but it definitely had its hand in a few unlucky events that day. Like knocking out power at our attorney's office, making it a bit more difficult to stay updated on what was happening and get transfers and files through in order to complete our closing on time (which is partially why it was delayed until Tuesday). But that was nothing compared to this, um, predicament:
Yep, that's our 26 ft U-Haul truck in a ditch, blocking two lanes of traffic. And it's not just any ditch. It's the ditch at the end of our driveway- er well, the driveway that we had just sold. So technically, it was someone else's ditch that was holding my truck captive about an hour before they'd be returning with the keys. Not to mention it was someone else's mailbox that the truck was precariously leaning against. Sigh.
Here's how it went down (pun intended). Sherry was already at my sister's house with Clara and Burger playing the waiting game until we could move into the new house. I had been dropped off at our old house to meet the buyers and their agent so they could do one last walk-through of our old casa before closing (apparently to make sure it was vacant and everything was still intact… can you taste the irony already?). The walk-through went fine and I was leaving right behind them in the giant truck packed full of all our worldly possessions when this happened (though they were already too far up the road to see it). I blame it on some combination of paying too close attention to keeping the front end of the truck from ending up in the ditch across the street, snow that was hiding the edge of the driveway, and general inexperience when it comes to driving a big ol' truck.
At least that's how I like to tell the story. Sherry prefers this phone conversation play-by-play:
JOHN: Hey Sherry. Walk-through went fine. They're off to go close and I'm headed to the new house.
SHERRY: Okay, be very careful. It's snowy out there so drive as slow as you need, even if people are honking at you. Just take your time.
JOHN: I will. Don't worry.
SHERRY: Great. I just don't want you ending up in a ditch or anything.
JOHN: Crap, the truck is in a ditch and I think I knocked over the mailbox.
SHERRY: You're kidding right?
We can laugh about it now, but let's just say it was definitely a disastrous moment in our heads at the time. We had visions of everything in the truck shattering and having to wait hours to be towed out (which would definitely have pissed off the new owners who would be back with the keys in about an hour after their closing). Fortunately none of that happened. Heck, the mailbox didn't even fall over.
Once I got the truck towed out of the ditch (within about half an hour- which was truly miraculous in that storm with all the other car-riddled ditches to be attended to) I drove it about one mile an hour over to our new house. Then I called our house's new owners' agent and agreed to replace the mailbox post (which had cracked in the process). Between that and the tow truck charge to un-ditch the truck, the whole ordeal ended up costing us $185. Sucky? Yes. But it could have been so much worse (so far not one thing that we've unpacked has been broken- which is a total Christmas miracle because the back of the truck crashed down at least 18″ when it slipped off the driveway). We're just happy it didn't result in a cracked flatscreen TV, a delayed closing, an injury, or any other number of things that could have gone wrong. And it somehow made making it into our house later that day that much sweeter. Like we'd battled all sorts of insane and unexpected adversity, only to end up where we belonged by day's end.
Plus, later that night I redeemed myself by surprising Sherry with this:
I snagged it on lunaCielo's Etsy shop a few weeks ago (after hearing Sherry admire Courtney Cox's small gold turtle necklace during Cougar Town). I though it made a great house-warming gift because it came with this note about the turtle's symbolism: "The turtle's whole life is one of steadfastness, effort, and patience. There is a saying, "Home is where the heart is" — the turtle is always at home within itself." As we switch from one house to another, it's a good reminder that our sense of home stays with us wherever we are.
And perhaps on this unlucky day, it was a good sign that even our ditch-bound truck itself was emblazoned with a giant turtle. Coincidence? You be the judge.
So that's the story of Monday the 13th. Don't say I didn't warn you about what can happen when a case of the Mondays merges with that unlucky number…

Hilarious! I was laughing so hard…ahhh, the joys of moving day! ;) Then you finished with the touching turtle surprise. Great writing!
Thanks for sharing your "ditch" story with us…I think we've ALL had our own ditch stories for sure!!! :D Glad you got it OUT and are unpacking even now! So exciting, can't wait to see all the wonderful ideas you both have percolating in those minds of yours come to pass!! ;) —And the turtle necklace, such a beautiful gift and so thoughtful!! Loved the little "sentiment" that went along with it! Perfect!! Wishing you 4 a very MERRY CHRISTMAS in your new home!!
That's why I always make hubby drive those trucks!! Glad you were ok. Something's ALWAYS gotta go wrong on closing/moving day, I swear.
I can just hear you thinking "Ok, now I have to get out of the truck and take a picture of it in the ditch for the blog!" :-D
Ohhhhhh! John, you are a sweetie! What a great gift! How thoughtful. The adventure has begun!
Oh, it brings to mind the chaos from moving out of our first house. The new owners stopped by the night before to park their moving van in the driveway. The dogs were going nuts and carrying on as I chatted with them outside. I come back in only to find blood ev-ery-where! One of the dogs cut their paw and tracked it all of the light carpet. I was supposed to leave that evening and drive the 3-1/2 hours to our new location. In a panic, I called our real estate agent and explained the situation. She told me to go ahead and leave, and she would take care of getting the carpet cleaned in the morning prior to closing. Thank goodness for her…she was such a life (and carpet) saver. Sorry you had such an adventure, as if having two house closings on one day isn't adventure enough. Best wishes in your new home!
Love the story, the necklace, the symbolism.
When we were closing on our current home, 23 years ago, we were doing the final walk-through about an hour before closing. Flipped on the HVAC and nothing. Turned out someone ( we assume the teenage juvenile delinquent that lived next door )had loaded the outside breaker box, that controlled the HVAC, with firecrackers and blown up the breakers. Went to closing with the electrician at the house replacing the box.
Great truck story. Glad everyone is okay. The necklace story is priceless. Good Job on that one.
OMG! That is super sweet. I think I am in love…er..your sweet for the necklace. Great Gift. Sorry about the Uhaul….it happens and it sucks. :)
I love your blog, and all your posts, but this is one of the best ever. So funny and moving all at the same time. And the turtle; I have been a real estate agent for years and I truly believe that there are no coincidences. Everything that happens is meant to be and for a reason. I love the symbolism of the turtle and it doesn't surprise me at all that the truck had a big turtle on it. Congratulations on your new home and may it bring you nothing but love, luck and happiness!
oh my goodness. . . i laughed so hard. moving always seems to go that way for us. . . so i am sorry this happened to you but am also kinda glad we are not alone! gotta love unforeseen expenses. . . moving always does that (just not always to the tune of new mailbox parts at your previous digs)
LOVE this story, love this gift—love that the truck had a turtle on it—thanks for sharing your life with us!
Oh, it brings to mind the chaos from moving out of our first house. The new owners stopped by the night before to park their moving van in the driveway. The dogs were going nuts and carrying on as I chatted with them outside. I come back in only to find blood ev-ery-where! One of the dogs cut their paw and tracked it all of the light carpet. I was supposed to leave that evening and drive the 3-1/2 hours to our new location. In a panic, I called our real estate agent and explained the situation. She told me to go ahead and leave, and she would take care of getting the carpet cleaned in the morning prior to closing. Thank goodness for her…she was such a life (and carpet) saver. Sorry you had such an adventure, as if having two house closings on one day isn't adventure enough. Best wishes in your new home!
LoL, that's awesome! BTW, if my husband and I were the buyers we wouldn't get mad :D We would have probably tried to help somehow actually, that's just who we are.
Just kudos to you for trying to drive that thing in the first place, and to top it off, in the snow! When we drove ours (done it 2x so far) I was always amazed how well Nick (hubby) did. I will not drive it. Period.
This past move we hooked up our car to the back, talk about a heavy load, the small hills that you don't notice in a car brought us down to about 30mph on the highway (we didn't have a diesel)….you know, people who don't know what its like driving on roads in a heavy load like that really do not respect you while you are driving. The people who get it, they're the nice ones!
The only complications we had was a flat tire before we loaded everything, thankfully-b/c it got fixed before stuff was packed, and getting the trailer on the hitch in small, awkward spaces, one of which had a slope (we had to play superman and superwoman and lift/move it with our own strength at times-the trailer pre-loaded). Nothing like feeling ridiculous in broad day light while people are waiting for you to move and you can't get a trailer on and then can't squeeze out of a small space!
I feel you guys! Sending the love! :)
Congrats on the new home. Can't wait to see what you have in store since the last one looked so awesome too!
Congrats on the family! Clara looks like Mommy :)
John and Sherry,
That is a HUGE truck. I would have been terrified driving it. Glad everything turned out ok. Amazing how fast the tow service got you out of the ditch. I'm enjoying following your renovations in your new home…truly inspiring!
I'm so glad you love the turtle necklace from my shop. I have even more turtles now! I have set a a coupon code for your awesome followers. Enter code YOUNGHOUSELOVE for 10% off through Oct.31, 2011. You can purchase directly from me if you don't wanna make an etsy account. http://www.facebook.com/lunacielojewelry.
Thanks! Erin
This exact same thing happened to us when we moved to London, Kentucky! We got our UHaul stuck in the ditch in front of our house, so we had to just unload it that way to get it unstuck. Weeeeeell, out in the country, they don't wait for you to get out of the way, so this guy decides to go into someone's yard to get around us and HE gets stuck IN THEIR YARD! To make matters worse, the snow was so deep at that point that the TOW TRUCK got stuck! Finally, 8 hours later, we had all three vehicles pulled out of their respective ditches and all the boxes inside :)

- Anastasia Miller was sent to Eden because the voices told her to burn down her family home, causing her parents to die in the accident.
- Anastasia had always been a shy girl, she never really spoke up, or spoke out about what was happening in her life. She didn't have many friends at all. She didn't trust people, simply because of the things going on in her home life. Her parents were perfect, nobody could be better parents than them. But her uncle, who lived with them was an awful man. Her parents didn't know that he'd been sexually abusing her whenever he got the chance and Ana being the quiet, shy little girl she couldn't speak up to tell anybody. So she let things get worse, and worse. Before she knew it she was sixteen and still going through it. But her strength was wearing thin. Every time he did it she just felt even more disgusted with herself. Her body literally couldn't take anymore and that was what caused her first suicide attempt.
- When her parents found out, they didn't understand and made her see a therapist, but that was doing nothing when she wouldn't say anything to anyone. Her mind was slowly deteriorating, all while her uncle was still abusing her whenever he got that chance. She was self harming, drinking and smoking, anything to take a little bit of pain away. But one night, Ana came home from school to see her uncle doing the same thing to her sister and she lost it. Getting her sister out of there and making her stay with her friend while she got some gas and started pouring it on outside of the house and she blew it up, not even realizing that her parents were in the house and her uncle wasn't. When she found out that it was them who had been burned in the accident, Ana blamed herself and fessed up to the cops, which sent her to Eden and her uncle to prison.
- Now, Ana's personality has completely changed. She just doesn't give a shit about anyone but herself. Her whole life now revolves around making herself happy, but due to her schizophrenia, there certainly is more than her fair share of psychotic breaks. When she's like that, people just have to let her ride it out. There is no stopping her whatsoever during an outburst. If the voices are telling her something then she knows she has to do it or there will be consequences.

Tonight the Youngsville City Council will take up the issue of failing road construction in neighborhoods, with this ordinance, they're trying to figure out how they can make higher quality roads in neighborhoods after so many road failures happening in such as short amount of time.
The city council wants developers to follow new standards. First by increasing how much asphalt and concrete is laid on the ground and investigating soil conditions to determine what type of road will be most suitable for Youngsville neighborhoods. Also inspecting the road after is done and increasing the warranty period before the city takes ownership.
"Its a concern of I think everyone in Youngsville today since we're growing so fast we're really taking a look at how we're growing and where we're growing and we want to make sure that roads we're acquiring through private development like neighborhoods are built to last," said Youngsville City Councilman Ken Ritter.
This ordinance is up for final adoption. The vote takes place tonight during the council meeting at 6p.m.

UPDATED: $30,000 needed to repair damaged tombstones at Nashua cemetery
NASHUA— Nashua police are asking for the public's help in identifying who toppled, and in some cases smashed, 86 tombstones at the historic Woodlawn Cemetery over a period of at least two nights.
Tombstones as old as 200 years lay broken and split on the ground along with newer stones. In the wake of the vandalism, cemetery staff have worked to inform family members about the damage.
Police were first told by officials from Woodlawn that 82 gravestones had been damaged on March 14, and then received another call on the 15th that four more had been vandalized. Len Fournier, cemetery superintendent, estimated it would take $30,000 to repair the damage.
"That is just a guess though. I can't even begin to guess how much it will cost," Fournier said.
Fournier said that based on the size and weight of many of the stones, multiple people took part in the vandalism.
He added that while many stones can be fixed, the older stones, called tablets due to how thin they are, might not be able to be repaired.
In response to the destruction, police increased night patrols in the area and the areas of other city cemeteries in an effort to catch the culprits or at least deter them from doing any more damage.
Lt. Mike Moushegian of the Nashua Police Department refused to speculate on why the damage was done and by whom, but did say that once caught, the vandals will probably be charged with a felony.
Moushegian said those responsible would probably be charged with criminal mischief. He said a prosecutor might also have the option of instead charging the vandals with a felony for destruction of objects of sentimental value.
"But that's up to the prosecutor to decide, just like it is up to the prosecutor to decide if there are charges for each individual gravestone or not," Moushegian said.
Due to the fact that the gravestones were vandalized during the course of at least two nights, police are hopeful that someone in the area saw something that could lead to a break in the case.
"It's hard to say what the motivation was. It's not unheard of that this kind of thing happens on successive nights, but it highlights the fact that the public had an opportunity to see something," Moushegian said.
Fournier though said that might not be the case, as the destruction was focused on areas of the cemetery that are the most difficult to see from the road. He added that he expects the cost to repair the damage will probably come out of his annual budget.
Open to persons of all faiths, Woodlawn Cemetery was enacted and named by the state Legislature in 1895, although it has a history that precedes that date. Open year round, the main gate on Kinsley Street stays open to allow after-hour visitation.
Police ask anyone with information about the incident to call the department at 594-3500 or report it anonymously by using the Crime Line at 589-1665.

I went grocery shopping tonight, and got a few things I need for my lunches/suppers this week.
- red leaf lettuce (the darker and more colour in your lettuce, the better)
- carrots
- whole wheat buns
- pretzel (not pictured because I ate it on the way home)
- Blueberry Green Tea Superfruit
- tomato
I'm going to make salad for my lunch/supper, and what I usually put in it is: red lea lettuce, tomato, cucumber, celery, and carrot.
I'm either going to eat the bins at breakfast with peanut butter (my peanut butter has one ingredient: peanuts), or I might make chickpea salad and use them for sandwiches.
I have blueberry ginko herbal tea, but I find it really strong, so I don;t drink it every often. Today when we were at the mall, Zach got blueberry herbal tea, and I tried it, and I liked it a lot more than the one I have, so I thought blueberry green tea might be good (I have pomegranate green tea, which I really like).


text: Everyone be safe today. I have to pick up the kids in this mess and I can barely see out the front window. And remember, while you may be an excellent driver, there are a million other people on the road today who got their licenses from cracker jacks. So everyone please be careful.

Request: Goofy sings BRING ME TO LIFE
Anonymous asked:
I know you get asked to do Goofy too much, but a cover of Bring Me to Life would be hilarious <3
Let me transport you to a simpler time, where you're putting the final touches on your Inuyasha AMV in Windows Movie Maker.
Welcome back to 2003.
Oh god thank fucking christ.
I usually don't reblog these, but I feel like some of my followers could probably use the reassurance. I definitely have these kinds of thoughts sometimes.
so i'm not crazy for randomly thinking such thoughts? what a relief!
Edgar Allan Poe had a name for it too: The Imp of the Perverse. he compared the impulses to a demon that urges people to do the wrong thing simply because it can be done
The compulsion to jump from high places is called "l'appel du vide" in French. The call of the void. I think it's specific to that one instance, but I think it's a cool phrase for this phenomenon in general.
I think about this with random sharp objects laying around, too. "What if I just jammed this into my eye or throat right now? … oh god WHAT." Just… fucking christ, brain. Don't.
Reblogging this again because most people don't/never know how normal these thoughts are, and that can be a major source of stress. It's okay. You're okay. Just, you know, don't follow through on that shit.
1. Enter the Boss Level
2. Prepare power-ups and special weapons
3. Start your attack
4. Friend loses health and dies
5. Freak out and attack irrationally
5. Escape and start from scratch
bla bla bla
Sorry for my absence. I'm not sure how many of you read this, but still, this is a place where I put everything off my chest…
I've been thinking a lot about my life, what I want to do, etc. There are things which require immediate change- mainly my attitude towards people. My attitude towards MYSELF. I'm not gonna explain it cause it would be a long text, but I do realize there does need to be a change.
Some of you might say "just be yourself", which I agree, but being yourself is about striving for who you want to be aswell. Discovering yourself, where you want to stand, and what you want to do.
With that said, I hope I can be more of "myself" next year.
Take care, Happy holidays and a Happy new year!
this means a lot, my boyfriend considers him self fat no matter what I tell him. One of my best guy friends thinks no one will date him because he is over weight which is the most un true thing every. All guys bodies are attractive.
This means a lot to me too because my boyfriend also thinks he's fat regardless of what I say. The saddest day was when I watched him step on a scale and get sad at a number he saw. Spread the love.
My boyfriend always puts himself down because he thinks he's too skinny, :(
shout out to all my male followers (;
how is it only now that more people seem to be realising that guys suffer too? this isn't aimed at anyone i'm just saying… i'm a guy and i hate my body, people have laughed in my face before when they found out that i hate myself because they think that only girls suffer… so yeah, boys suffer too.
people don't seem to realize that men get objectified in ads just as much as women do, they get advertised to about being worthless if they aren't fit/muscular/handsome/don't have a girlfriend/don't have a big dick.
and people say that this is a "mans world," and they get a lot of flack for not being, acting, looking, or even sounding manly enough.
my boyfriend gets low about his looks compared to others, and no matter how much i tell him otherwise i can tell it still eats away at him.
just like when i get low about my looks.
just remember that guys get degraded by the standards of the media just as much as women do.
Holy shit thank youuuuu
I was at a concert on Friday and one girl at the merch table asked for a small sized t shirt and the guy asked if she preferred men's or women's small and the guy behind her said "there's a men's small? that's embarrassing" and it actually was embarrassing knowing that I was about to go up there and get one for myself and this is actually a big issue okay
I have a lot of fans who tell me I'm not overweight and that I shouldn't be hard on myself. These people are lovely. But honestly I imagine it's what a girl feels like when she's rocking a "no makeup" look and people say "see, look how pretty you are without makeup!"
I put a lot of time and effort into dressing, posing and framing myself in a way that I can hide my weight because the millisecond I drop my guard I get a thousand comments from my audience telling me I'm looking fat.
I'm pretty damn certain the pressure on women to look good is far worse than it is for men but as someone in the public eye I can safely say that yes, it sucks a whole bag of fucks.
you're killing me bro
I'm a social retard, explain to me why this is a bad thing. If all I have to say is "nice" then all I say is "nice." Nice is good isn't it?
That's fine. Nice is good.
It's just frustrating when someone prompts a conversation and doesn't put any effort in continuing it lol. When the other person KEEPS GIVING really lackluster, terse answers that shows, to me, that they have little to no interest in me, what we're talking about, or this friendship/relationship.
Not much to talk about when "nice" is the most they can say.
yeahhhhhhhhhh i used to have a friend like this and bOY OH BOY AM I HAPPY I'M NOT FRIENDS WITH THEM ANYMORE
REBLOGS THIS x MILLION
Im that friend
I hate it but even if i initiate a conversation i dont know what to do after that and i always feel terrible because im lonely and want to talk but
I am that person, thanks for making me feel like shit for being introverted and for not throwing as many words into a chat box as you did.
Uh yea.

This blog is meant to serve as a tool for both reflection and sharing of information that would be useful in the areas of instructional design, content development, and online delivery (facilitation) of courses.
We need all three!
Missing one of these components increases the instability and risk of having a less than successful course. Through the writings of this blog, I hope to impart some techniques, helpful hints, tips, and strategies in each of these areas in an effort to make your online course a success.
First off, let's talk about each 'D' a little.
|Make sure that you are using the right tool for the job!
D3 Simplified
The design aspect is like drafting up the blueprints for a new house. No one says to the carpenter - "Go and build me a house." - and expects to see a finished product in a few short months without some additional planning of what the finished house should look like.
Likewise, we would not want to say to teachers, professors, or facilitators - "Go and build an online course." - without some planning as to how that finished course should look. Just as a house to be custom built should address a great many needs for the residents, an online course should address the needs of the learners.
A needs analysis can go a long way in helping you to build a successful course. In addition to analyzing needs, we should look at the learners, learning environment, content, and time frames, just to name a few things.
What are the outcomes? What are the objectives? What things are acceptable as evidence of learning for you? What kinds of activities are most appropriate for leading the learner towards a point where they are capable of producing that evidence? Are we taking accessibility into account when thinking of all of these things?
Certainly there are many more areas we could list here but the point is that we need to think of these things.
|Good design early on can reduce problems later
Someone has to build it! Is that you or someone else? What kinds of training do you need in order to develop the content on your own? What will be made - PowerPoints, videos, simulations, or SCORM objects? Are you developing with third party tools or completely within your content management system?
Have you considered the organization of the information? Formatting and navigation, while not related directly to your content, are very important elements of a positive experience on the part of the learners.
Your digital carpenter can take the designs and work wonders for you - just make sure that there is a design available. The developers have the training and expertise to do the building so that you can focus on being the content expert.
|Don't let technology be a burden for you.
Let someone help you develop great content!
Just like a joke - the delivery can make it or break it. Facilitating an online course is very different than facilitating a face-to-face one. It will be important for you to know some of the techniques and strategies for building relationships with your students. You will need to know how to manage your workload and use good time management while working in the online environment. Do you take time to give quality feedback? What would students say about your "presence" in the online classroom?
Teaching online can be a very rewarding experience - especially when everything is well planned and when the facilitator feels comfortable with how to manage everything.
All the best ingredients for the most awesome tasting sandwich in the world will get some pretty awful results if it is delivered to the customer like this...
Likewise, even a well planned and beautifully developed course can fall flat if it is not facilitated and managed well.
|Spend time working on your presentation.
How you deliver the course will make a difference.
As the blog gets going - I would love to have some ideas and questions from you. What are you interested in? Are there some areas where you are struggling? Please feel free to leave some comments or suggestions for future posts.
Have an awesome day!

A Wisconsin Rapids Attorney and President of the Port Edwards School Board announced on Tuesday that he will run for the State Assembly in the 72nd District this fall.
Dana Duncan, a Democrat, has lived in Port Edwards since 2003, after moving from Wisconsin Rapids.
In a press release, Duncan said Wisconsinites deserve the same opportunities that he was able to take advantage of and make himself into a successful business owner and civil servant. Duncan wants to focus on important issues like jobs and the economy, education, healthcare, and bridging the partisan divide if elected to the Assembly. He wants to put an end to the dysfunction that has negatively impacted economic growth in the state for the last four years, and rely on a history of bipartisan problem solving he used while on the School Board to return Madison to a center of progress in the country.

Grades have no direct impact on the overall score.
Brat Sluts is up for review today, and this site features women ages 18-25 (by my guess) just doing what girls do best - getting naked on camera and showing off their sexy bodies. There's not a whole lot of a theme here or anything, but they get their point across pretty well. It's part of a network called Girlies Pass, which features a lot of solo sites of the more popular girls here. You have two join options: $20 recurring at $15 for this site alone, or $25 recurring at $20 for network access as well.
Newer videos come in HD!
I really like the look of the newer videos, especially when compared to the older ones. They're not perfect or anything, but they are high definition, and they do look pretty good. I'll be even happier as the proportion grows going forward.
Other Good Stuff:
Could still use some growth.
Thankfully, the site isn't tiny or anything. However, a site like this really needs more content. I'm thinking several hundred scenes would be a good start, which will take some time unfortunately. But with the multi-model setup, and no real niche or anything, I think numbers play a big deal here.
Older quality isn't as good.
Once you get past the HD material, you're kinda stuck with some videos that seem older for sure. Plus, they aren't even labeled or anything, so you're left just guessing (based on file size?) as to whether or not any specific video comes in HD or not.
Minor Negatives:
Decent for now, but it will be even better in time with some growth.
Brat Sluts is definitely off to an okay start, but it'll take some time before I get really excited here. They mostly need more content. The site isn't necessarily tiny, but a site like this really needs more to see in my opinion. Adding to the site will also increase the HD proportion of the videos, which will help things as well. For now, you get some hot chicks showing off their hot bodies, and that's probably good enough. Adding the extra cost for the network access honestly sucks, but it might not be a bad join there.

As salty breezes blow in from the ocean and Jamaica Bay, they intermingle with the scents of contemporary Thai cuisine on the outdoor deck at Thai Rock. Specialties include the Poh Taek, a hot-and-sour hot pot filled with a combination of shrimp, mussels, squid, and whitefish. Chefs also stir-fry rice noodles with egg and dark, sweet soy sauce to create pad see-ew, available with a choice of protein such as chicken, certified Angus beef, pork, duck, or tofu.
As far as party spots go, Thai Rock lives up to its name. Live music rocks the indoor dining room year round, while tunes echo onto the outdoor deck and bar during warmer months. The eatery frequently hosts events, from karaoke contests to outdoor Zumba classes on the deck. The deck, with its panoramic view of?and direct access to?Jamaica Bay, is definitely a highlight of Thai Rock, allowing for warm-weather fun including pre-dinner jet skiing thanks to Rockaway Jet Ski at Thai Rock.

Despite the adventure that the urban landscape of New York has to offer, some city dwellers can't shake the itch to climb boulders, hike mountain trails, and surge through whitewater rapids. One group of New Yorkers decided to remedy this, organizing weekend retreats to places such as the Adirondacks and New Hampshire's White Mountains. As word of their adventures grew, more and more people asked to join, and thus began Outdoor Connections. Today, its guides lead outings for adventurers of all fitness levels, from a day of apple picking, hiking, and wine to full-moon hikes with campfire roasts and unabashed howling. Loading up large passenger vans, Outdoor Connections' team takes guests to places such as state parks and preserves in the Adirondacks and Catskills, as well as along the Hudson River Valley and Delaware and Lehigh Rivers.
Reber River Trips offer the best of what's old and what's new?via raft, kayak, or tube. Though their boat launch on the Delaware River is one of Barryville's newest, the Reber family has been helping guests who are exploring leisurely wilderness adventures in the region since 1947.
For a trip through history, the Rebers can direct boaters and floaters to especially well-preserved portions of the waterway, where adventurers can keep their eyes peeled for eagles and deer. Rod-brandishers reel in the river's plentiful assortment of fish, and party rafts host up to 20 revelers and up to three pi?atas filled with trout.
When Joan Schaming and Ronald Williams opened Balic of Clinton in 2004, they wanted to make sure their clientele understood the importance of sampling wines before they commit to a bottle. In their shop, they hold daily tastings of their rotating selection of reds, whites, dessert wines, and specialty potables, which they recommend to pair with selections from their inventory of gourmet foods and chocolates.

Haha fuck. You seriously have no life. Stop commenting on that post if you don't like it. You have nothing better to do than start shit with people you don't even know haha that's laughably sad! Oh jesus. Not to mention half the shit you were getting pissed about wasn't even there. Typical XD
…but I understand the difficulty. We've only been dating for a complete month and 10 days, but I have fallen for the boy, not the uniform. I honestly wish he weren't leaving nor I. I wish that we could just be together for months and…
You specifically said you understand the difficulty. If you know it's disrespectful to claim a title you don't have don't try to act like you know how it feels if you haven't experienced it.
No one even said anything about a deployment lmfao, I just said don't tell someone you understand their situation if you have never been through it. I'm not going to tell a cancer patient I understand how they feel, because i don't. You don't understand how we feel, you don't. The end. Log out.

microscopically. Thus, evaluation of airborne indoor allergens depends on sensitive immunoassays and requires a method for collecting particles. This can be done either with a filter or with a multistage impactor (Solomon and Matthews, 1988; see also the discussion in Chapter 6).
In 1981, Tovey and colleagues (1981b) showed that fecal particles were a major form in which the allergen Der p I becomes airborne and that very little or no (i.e., <1 ng per cubic meter of air) mite airborne allergen was detected in undisturbed rooms (de Blay et al., 1991b; Platts-Mills et al., 1986; Swanson et al., 1989; Yasueda et al., 1989). Furthermore, airborne mite allergen falls rapidly after disturbance. These results support the view that mite allergen is predominantly airborne on particles that are larger than or equal to 10 µm in diameter. The levels found in the air during disturbance depend critically on the form of the disturbance and vary from 5 to 200 ng of Der p I/m3. Assuming that airborne Der p I is carried predominantly on fecal particles, it is possible to estimate the number of particles that become airborne and to an estimate of the number of particles that could enter the lung, since the mean allergen content of the particles is known. Chapter 6 discusses methods of assessing exposure and risk.
Voorhorst and his colleagues (1967) found that dust from the houses of symptomatic allergic patients generally had more than 500 mites/g of dust. During the 1980s, further data accumulated demonstrating a dose-response relationship between exposure to mite allergens (or mites) and both sensitization and asthma (Bernton et al., 1972; Kang et al., 1991; Pollart et al., 1989, 1991). From these results, it also appeared that there were levels of exposure (or thresholds) below which the risk of sensitization or asthma was much less. This finding notwithstanding, the results suggest that in areas in which all houses contain high levels of mite allergen, sensitivity to mites is a major risk factor, not only for wheezing but for hospitalization of children with asthma.
Fewer data are available on the levels of exposure associated with sensitization or disease for allergens other than dust mite. However, there are data about the levels of cat allergen present in house dust. Dust from all houses with a cat contains at least 8 µg of Fel d I/g (the levels range as high as 1.5 mg of Fel d I/g). In houses without a cat, levels vary from less than 0.2 µg/g to 80 µg/g; it is thought that this allergen is transported into the houses on the clothes of inhabitants. Levels of cat allergen of less than 1 µg of Fel d I/g of dust appear not to give rise to sensitization or disease.
For cockroach allergen the rarity of sensitization among suburban patients suggests that the levels found in suburban houses (i.e., less than 1

The Shepherd's Dream, 1793, by Henry Fuseli
Fuseli referred to this text when he first exhibited the painting:
Behold a wonder! they but now who seemed In bigness to surpass Earth's giant sons Now less than smallest dwarfs, in narrow room Throng numberless, like that Pygmean race Beyond the Indian mount, or fairy elves, Whose midnight revels, by a forest side Or fountain some belated peasant sees, Or dreams he sees, while overhead the moon Sits arbitress, and nearer to the earth Wheels her pale course: they on their mirth and dance Intent, with jocund music charm his ear; At once with joy and fear his heart rebounds.

Is it possible to install OEM Windows 7 starter from a CD ?
Hi I am having an HP net book mini 210 with windows 7 starter . It came as OEM and i did not receive any windows 7 starter cd . But there is a windows 7 serial number on the sticker at the bottom. I made 3 restore disks as advised. The original windows configuration in this machine has 4 primary partitions .(C drive , Recovery, HP tools and a partition named system).
I would prefer to have windows in C drive and all my data in another drive. I don't need HP tools . Deleting this partition will enable me to have linux as dual boot( right now it is not possible as it has already 4 primary partitions ).
Is it possible to reinstall windows 7 starter from a cd or pendrive and just enter the serial number given in the sticker at the bottom (like windows xp which came with an installation cd). This way I can partition it the way I want. If it is possible, where can i download an installation cd ?
Thanks in advance.

We're not allowed to link to Windows 7 downloads here as it encourages piracy, so you'll have to try to borrow a friends DVD to copy using ImgBurn (save image file, then burn to DVD at 4x speed).
If you download from web, check the comments and rightclick scan the ISO with your AV and Malwarebytes.

W 7 64-bit Ultimate
Hello deepla, welcome to Seven Forums!
Here's some interesting information you may find useful and be sure to post back with any further questions you may have and to keep us informed.
After you have copied out or made back-ups of the data you need to save, if you can find an exact Windows version that the PC shipped with you can do a clean install using the activation key on the COA sticker attached to the PC though it may require a robo-call to MS to sort the OEM batch-key.
How to Activate Windows 7 by Phone
If you can't find an exact same version, you could use the info in this tutorial to create an "all Versions" installer of any version Windows installer, to install using the same method I posted above.
Windows 7 Universal Installation Disc - Create
Though if there's nothing on the PC you need to save, I'd do a complete wipe (secure erase) of the entire Hard Disk Drive first.

If you know someone with an original Windows 7 DVD, it doesn't have to be starter as long as its 32 bit, ask them to make you a copy. You can then make a universal install DVD from that or create a bootable USB thumb drive to do the install from. There is nothing illegal about getting a copy, you already have a legal product code, all you need is the install media. The instructions for creating a universal install disk are already linked to in the post above.

Hi , gregrocker, Bare Foot Kid,theog and alphanumeric. Thank you very much for your prompt reply. I dont have a dvd for the windows 7 so I will try out the other methods which you suggested. My netbook is 64 bit will the technique described by alphanumeric work if i use a 64 bit dvd and make a bootable pendrive ? If i install 32 bit windows in this netbook , will there be a problem in the activation of windows or its functionality

Your Windows 7 license is good for either 32- or 64-bit.
You can extract the DVD ISO using ImgBurn, then write the ISO to flash stick using UltraISO trial version which is easiest: on File tab Open ISO, on Bootable tab Write Disk Image, Format, Write. Boot under USB or HD's in BIOS one-time Boot Menu.

Your netbook may be 64 bit but Windows 7 Starter is only available in a 32 bit version. The 64 bit Windows 7 DVD won't list Starter as an option. I assume their logic is it's only meant for Netbooks and other entry level PC's so there is no need for a 64 bit version.

Embraer's China joint venture nearly defunct
Multiple deadlines have passed since Embraer early last year said its Chinese joint venture would cease to exist if it couldn't reach an agreement with its partners to build E-Jets in Harbin. Today, Harbin Embraer Aircraft remains open, but with enough work to last it until this quarter at the latest. In fact, its backlog consists of just one more ERJ 145, expected to go to Tianjin Airlines some time this spring. Once it delivers that airplane, the factory will close unless the Chinese government intervenes.
Embraer had originally given itself until the middle of last year to reach an agreement with its Chinese partners on adapting its assembly line in Harbin to produce E190s. Any delay, it said, would result in a gap in production. After the summer passed without an announcement, it shifted the deadline to the end of last year. It seems clear now, however, that even if the sides do reach an agreement in the coming months, the plant will lay fallow while workers retrofit new tooling to build the larger E-Jets.
Some three weeks after the year-end deadline passed, Embraer CEO Frederico Curado told AIN that negotiations hadn't concluded. Since then Embraer has repeatedly declined to comment on the status of the talks.
All signs point to an anemic or non-existent market for Harbin-Embraer ERJ 145s after the joint venture builds its last 50-seat jet this quarter. As the rate of 50-seat jet retirements continues to accelerate in North America and Europe, a robust supply of used airplanes appears likely to satisfy any demand that exists for the relatively fuel-thirsty jets in the rest of the world, including China.
Of course, much of the exploding demand for new 50-seat jets in the 1990s came as a result of scope-clause restrictions negotiated by the pilots of the major airlines in North America. With the subsequent relaxation of those restrictions, regionals in the West gravitated to larger RJs capable of delivering superior seat-mile costs.
Now, as U.S. majors in particular practice exercises in "rightsizing," they most often target their least fuel-efficient asset–namely, 50-seat jets–for removal from their route networks.
As of last month, Harbin Embraer Aircraft had delivered 39 of the 41 ERJ 145s that filled its backlog during the eight years of its operation. Embraer had delivered five ERJ 145s built in Brazil to Chinese airlines before the first Harbin-made aircraft left the factory, meaning 44 of the 50-seaters had entered service in the country as of last month.
Embraer's efforts to sell Brazilian-built E-Jets in China have proved somewhat more successful; as of last month 37 E190s flew for Tianjin Airlines, Henan Airlines and China Southern Airlines. Another 28 airplanes remained on back order, meaning Embraer's order book shows a firm-order total 65 E190s from Chinese customers.
Now flying some 85 airplanes all told, Chinese customers have placed orders for 115 Embraer jets, 100 of which Embraer expects to enter service by year-end. o
