Spit me out.
... Amsterdam. She compared more direct arterial routes with less direct side street routes, and discussed how they're used, which were developed first (side streets), and how they're better or worse (streetlights versus few streetlights, readily available knowledge of routes versus developed knowledge of routes over time, etc).

As we were walking around town we stopped to take pictures on a bridge with the locks and the young man that offered to take our picture was from Canada with brother going to U of M. Small world.

... very pleasant and memorable afternoon.
At this point we decided to do a little exploring, so we walked toward Dam Square via the slightly-seedy Warmoesstraat, a street lined with pot and sex shops, which lies in the old part of Amsterdam bordering the famous Red Light District. At Dam Square, we turned south onto the pedestrian-only Kalverstraat, a shopping street packed with people and higher-end shops. Along the way, we paid a ...

I love this video because it is just honest and clear about what everyone wants there. Real people fucking just for the sake of sex. Great video: I keep coming back to jerk off to it with regularity.
This is nostalgic as fuck. This is an old clip - I found it when I was first watching porn as a teen, and it was one of my favorites. The site it was on went down and so I couldn't find it anymore and just now stumbled across it... wow. Talk about memories. Sweaty, writhing memories.
This video is a legend
Break time is over, back to work bitch!
She is sexy I bet her pussy tastes and feel great
One of my favourite all time vids
I dream of and wish taking my friends wife from behind over a table, thrusting and then ejaculating inside her.
she looks like that actress from Ont tree hill ...........peyton or something
Do not bother. No foreplay, no fellatio, no cunnilingus. Just a doggy style for the entire length of the video. Illustrates woman as a piece of meat scenery to show a man getting off.
I dream of and wish doing this to my friends wife.
Man she's cute!!! Would love to see her little muffin up close & personal
She looks like she having a good time. I would love to have her suck my cock when she getting fuck
Damn she is good looking I wonder how good she is at taking dicktation. Where does she work I would love to pay her a visit at the office while boss is not around and bend her over that desk too.

ich liebe diese frau .... einfach geil
She's absolutely beautiful, and he's the luckiest guy in the world.
I don't know what he's paying her, but it isn't enough.
This babe is actually very similar to my former secretary. We were at it for about 5 years. Still think about it. God we got up to some serious fucking several times a week. Then she went off to become a teacher. Would have her back in a flash...!!

Tin House
At an obscure South Carolina nursing home, a lost world reemerges as a disabled elderly woman undergoes newfangled brain-restoration procedures and begins to explore her environment with the assistance of strap-on robot legs. At a deluxe medical spa on a nameless Caribbean island, a middle-aged woman hopes to revitalize her fading youth with grotesque rejuvenating therapies that combine cutting-edge medical technologies with holistic approaches and the pseudo-religious dogma of Zen-infused self-help. And in a rinky-dink mill town, an adolescent girl is unexpectedly inspired by the ravings and miraculous levitation of her fundamentalist friend's weird grandmother. These are only a few of the scenarios readers encounter in Julia Elliott's debut collection The Wilds. In her genre-bending stories, Elliott blends Southern gothic strangeness with dystopian absurdities, sci-fi speculations with fairy-tale transformations. Teetering between the ridiculous and the sublime, Elliott's language-driven fiction uses outlandish tropes to capture poignant moments in her humble characters' lives. Without abandoning the tenets of classic storytelling, Elliott revels in lush lyricism, dark humor, and experimental play.
*Kirkus names The Wilds one of the best books of the year
*BuzzFeed Books names The Wilds one of the 24 Best Fiction Books of 2014
*The Wilds is on Book Riot's Best of 2014 list
*The Wilds is a New York Times Editors' Choice
*The Wilds chosen by Electric Literature as one of the best short story collections of 2014
"Elliott makes us hear contemporary English in a new way."
—The New York Times Book Review
"Remarkable . . . [Elliott's] dark, modern spin on Southern Gothic creates tales that surprise, shock, and sharply depict vice and virtue."
—Starred Publishers Weekly
Robots may search for love, but there's nothing wilder than human nature in this genre-bending short story collection from debut writer Elliott . . . This book will take you to places you never dreamed of going and aren't quite sure you want to stay, but you won't regret the journey.
"Humans, robots, and humans with robotic limbs pine for carnal satisfaction in Elliott's impressively inventive, often macabre collection, animated by her characters' outsize appetites for sex, knowledge, faith, and kindness."
"This is wacky, bizarre content, but with a nice dose of realism even in the most absurd points. If you like Karen Russell, this is a good choice for you."
—Book Riot
"[Elliott's] work is unique and haunting, often drifting into apocalyptic and dystopian territory, but in many ways rooted in reality. I could not turn away from her tales. At the end of my time with The Wilds, I was completely devoted to Elliott's dark depictions of the world.
—The Rumpus
"Elliott's inventive first collection is replete with robotic limbs and levitation — but also grit and force. A dark piece of magic that glows in the reading."
"Often using dystopian and fantasy elements, Elliott's writing is imaginative, her characters are often strange, and the whole collection is a dark treat you simply can't put down."
—New Pages
"Part whimsical fairy tale, part technological exploration, fused with biological ruminations you won't be disappointed by this vivid collection."
—True Reader Reviews
"Readers who grew up loving that fizzy, edge-of-the-lake feeling of diving into a tale will adore Julia Elliott's The Wilds. Elliott's worlds are fully imagined and wholly immersive; her sentences unfurl in the most surprising and glorious ways. These are tantalizingly strange, eerie and funny and unpredictable tales of transformation."
—Karen Russell, author of Vampires in the Lemon Grove
"Julia Elliott's magical debut collection, The Wilds, brings together some of the most original, hilarious, and mind-bending stories written in the last two decades. She journeys deep into mythic terrains with an explorer's courage and a savant's wit, and the reports she sends back from imagination's hinterlands are charged with a vernacular that crackles with insight. Angela Carter, Kelly Link, and Karen Russell are similar visionaries in the short story form, but Elliott is very much her own irrepressible voice—and it's one well worth heeding. The Wilds is simply a milestone achievement."
—Bradford Morrow, author of The Uninnocent
"Julia Elliott's stories—which thrive beautifully somewhere between the lyrically haunting works of Barry Hannah and the retrospective works of Lewis Nordan—offer nothing but the great, beautiful, dark regions of the human heart. These are stories to be cherished, taught, and brooded upon. These are stories in which to bathe oneself."
—George Singleton, author of Stray Decorum
"Julia Elliott's stories are an endangered species—vital, poignant, and rare. Readers should send themselves recklessly into The Wilds, for they will emerge spellbound, all the better for it."
—Kate Bernheimer, author of How a Mother Weaned Her Girl from Fairy Tales
"The Wilds by Julia Elliott: a very well-written book of short stories that are creepy and weird in the good way. In the title story, a girl wearing a homemade crown of bird skulls tells of getting taken prisoner by a feral pack of boys, known as the Wilds, who live nearby. 'Their chests glowed with firefly juice. They had steak knives strapped to their belts and some of them wore goggles.' How can you go wrong with that setup?"
—Arthur Bradford, fiction and children's writer (Dogwalker, Benny's Brigade)
A conversation with Julia Elliott and Jeff VanderMeer
Jeff VanderMeer: What do texture and tone mean to you when writing a short story? And do you have to get them right before you can finish a rough draft?
Julia Elliott: As a hedonistic texturist, my initial impulse is to cram every particle of a story with texture and tone, so that each and every sentence bursts with perfumed, purple language like an overripe fig—an oozing, fermenting, parasite-infested mess of a fig. When I return to early stories, I'm struck by the electric, visceral moods that end up going nowhere—especially plot-wise. Although I'm now more ruthless about gagging and straight-jacketing the bad poet within, I don't feel at home in a narrative unless I've created a palpable texture that I can inhabit as I work out character motivations and plot, elements that occur less instinctively for me.
JV: Where might we find the autobiographical in your fiction? For example, have you ever lived with a feral family? I hope you say yes.
JE: Although all of my fiction contains mutated autobiographical genes here and there, only a few stories in the collection are semiautobiographical, though ridiculously exaggerated. When I was a child, my dad liked to invent diseases ("scabrunocatosis," for example, a condition where the nose bone never stops growing, eventually bursting through the skin of the unfortunate sufferer's nose to wreathe the head in a tangle of bone, or "Puerto Rican trench mouth," a gangrenous infection caught by kissing cats on the lips). One disease that he claimed I had as a child was an "incurable hyperbolic condition." He got to witness the adult manifestation of this pathology when he read my story "The Whipping," in which the father character is a grossly exaggerated version of him, with all kinds of grotesque flourishes thrown in (though my father once fried up a mess of robins that my little brothers shot, he performed the task with considerably less dramatic flair and without the inspiration of Jim Beam). The three brothers are absurd versions of my three brothers, the mother a ridiculous fictionalization of my mother. To answer your question about living with a feral family—all families with young children, especially large families, seem kind of feral to me, and my own was no exception. In "The Whipping," I exaggerate the hellion qualities of the twins and the wildness of baby Cabbage, but the tone and texture of this childhood wildness seem true to me. Speaking of feral children, the feral boys in "The Wilds" bloomed from a very small kernel of reality—a rumor, really, about a family with eight male children—eight brawny brothers whose mother kept two industrial freezers in the garage. Although I knew only one of these guys (vaguely, in college), this anecdote festered in my mind for years. I wondered what weird genetic or hormonal quirk led to the production of an exclusively male brood. Although I'd heard that the harried mom kept over a dozen gallons of frozen milk in reserve for her ravenous sons, my imagination rioted as I envisioned neatly wrapped packages of mysterious meats, the kinds of chops werewolf-children or vampire-toddlers would devour raw.
JV: You write stories that adhere to a nominally realistic view of the world, but there's also a strong sense of the absurd running through them. Sometimes it's overt, and sometimes it's sly. Is this something you try to tease out further in revision, or an impulse you have to tamp down? Does the balancing act come naturally to you?
JE: I'm going to blame it on the genetic pathology I was born with, the "incurable hyperbolic condition" that my father saw signs of as soon as I learned to talk. It's an impulse that may spring from my Southern heritage—centuries of ancestral looniness—combined with enduring the kinds of filthy, Southern subtropical summers that breed hosts of yet-unidentified brain parasites. The disease infects everything I write from the moment of mental conception, though sometimes the putrid purple that erupts has to be disinfected and excised, spirited away in stainless-steel medical bowls and dumped into the desktop trash can.
JV: How much of the divide between the real and the perhaps not-so-real in your stories is a function of how your characters see the world?
JE: Although I understand the binary of real and not-so-real and am very conscious of crossing into the unreal, plot-wise or stylistically, the permeability of the border between the two is less about my characters' worldviews and more about the ways I perceive language and genre. Not only is all fiction artificial, from the "grittiest" "realism" to the "frothiest" "fairy tale," but there's also a good bit of poetry and fantasy in "scientific" writing, gap-filling cultural projections that become hilariously obvious when the "science" in question is outmoded (like Renaissance gynecology, with its misogynous monsters and marvels, or Freudian psychology, with its vaginal orgasms, frigidity, and penis-babies). Interestingly, the scaly dragons that slithered from the suspect wombs of early modern women do evoke glaringly obvious "truths" about the fears and obsessions of that time period's patriarchal medical institutions. For me, minimal evocation of "unreal" elements is the best way to hit upon certain emotional or philosophical insights, though other writers do this more effectively by adhering to a strict "realism" or throwing themselves whole hog into "fantastical" worlds. Both methods, to be effective, require a meticulous mastery of language and tone. To me, genre is not a package for a story, but a vehicle to be used within it—and some of my favorite fictions genre-mix liberally and magically.
JV: There's a sly way in which you kind of comment on the randomness and spontaneity of the world in your stories. This often manifests through your dialogue, and I'm wondering how much you work on dialogue from draft to draft. It's an incredibly rare gift to make speech sound both off-the-cuff and essential to the story rather than just random.
JE: That's very encouraging to hear, because I often feel like I'm floundering when writing dialogue. I frequently cover two or three pages with conversations that I end up paring down to the few exchanges that seem relevant to the action at hand. Whereas I can sometimes nail other elements on the first draft (like "tone and texture"), dialogue is something that I tend to get "right" after one or two revisions.
JV: "Regeneration at Mukti" is a wonderful story that's got a great manic energy to it but also a sharp eye for detail that both skewers our present and helps the reader suspend disbelief about its future milieu. Was there any particular spark or catalyst for writing it, and was the first line always "Call me a trendmonger, but I've sprung for a tree house."?
JE: Again, I'm going to blame it on my "incurable hyperbolic condition." I once suffered a bout of poison oak with such horrific yellow pustules that I developed oozing, Popeye-sized forearms. When the boil-mass eventually crusted over, I felt like I was pupating, like I was about to slough a scabby layer and that some other "creature" (perhaps radiant, perhaps monstrous) would crawl from the shed casing. I devoted a great deal of mental energy to imagining different forms of human pupation, and then I forgot about the whole thing. Years later, as I contemplated the weirdness of Botox (how bizarre is it to inject a muscle-paralyzing toxin into your face?), I began to imagine absurd futuristic beauty technologies involving nanobots and stem cells. One day I read a trashy Internet article on plastic-surgery safaris, which made me laugh darkly, envisioning bandaged neurotics exploring jungles in jeeps, peering at elephants and baboons, exploiting some "developing" economy and contemplating the majesty of nature as their whittled noses or cheekbone implants healed. I've always been struck by the ways the beauty industry co-opts a kind of Zen-infused self-help when hawking its processes, particularly those involving expensive spas, and this led me to imagine Mukti, a place that melds every trendy "holistic" approach with religious dogma and freaky futuristic technologies, packaging what is essentially a vain and illogical desire for eternal youth as a spiritual transformation of the self. In the story, which takes place on a nameless Caribbean Island, the patients are infected with "controlled pathogens" through "oils, funguses, bacteria, viruses, and parasites." As their skin transforms into a scabby rind, a kind of full-body crust that they will eventually shed to reveal luminous rejuvenated epidermises, they undergo all kinds of ridiculous therapies: injection of nanobot serums, leech therapy, beer-bath isolation tanks, and so forth, all the while enjoying the island's organic haute cuisine and the luxe quarters of pseudo-rustic tree houses. Although the story satirizes the excesses of the spa and leisure industries, I found myself sympathizing with the female narrator, and the narrative began to explore her relationship with a fellow patient, which progresses as their physical exteriors become increasingly grotesque. To answer the second part of the question: yes, the story originally began with the line "Call me a trendmonger, but I've sprung for a tree house."
JV: These are unique stories that don't really owe anything to anyone, in my opinion. But sometimes there are glints and glimmers of writers like Shirley Jackson and Kelly Link. Are there are any touchstones that you feel a really personal connection to?
JE: Although I really wanted to answer this question with a five-page, alphabetized list of authors I love (it's very difficult for me to narrow it down), the time constraint made such a response unfeasible.

Nitrogen δ-doped GaAs superlattices (SLs) were fabricated, and their energy structures were investigated. A number of strong transition signals are observed in photoreflectane (PR) spectra in an energy range from 1.54 to 1.78 eV for SL samples in which any transitions are not observed in uniformly nitrogen-doped GaAsN with comparable nitrogen content. Both of the E+ and E- bands formed around the nitrogen δ-doped layers compose SL potentials with the conduction band of the spacer GaAs layers, resulting in the formation of multiple minibands. The energy range of the SL minibands well explains the observed transition energies in the PR spectra. The PR signal intensity ratios of the E+-related transitions to the E--related transitions for the SLs are notably large compared with those usually observed for conventional GaAsN alloys. This enhancement of electron transition associated with the E+-related bands should be advantageous as intermediate band material. Therefore, nitrogen δ-doped GaAs SLs are expected to be an excellent alternative to uniformly doped GaAsN alloys for the use in intermediate band solar cells.

Splash into summer with the hottest swimwear - 0 Comments
It's easy to make a splash in this summer's hottest swimwear.
That's because the designer styles, from the sexy bikinis to the practical maillots, are friendly to most figures.
"They're not so avant-garde and insane that you won't find them at the mall," said Lori Bergamotto, style editor at Lucky magazine.
Bergamotto said women should consider four general trends — graphic stripes, sporty, hot brights and pretty florals — while keeping in mind their personal style hang-ups.

Antibody‐Dependent Enhancement of Coxsackievirus B4 Infectivity of Human Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells Results in Increased Interferon‐α Synthesis
ABSTRACT IgG devoid of neutralizing activity and isolated from donor plasma by chromatography formed immune complexes with coxsackievirus B4 (CVB4) and significantly increased the infection of peripheral blood mononuclear cells with CVB4. The major host cells for CVB4 infection enhanced with IgG are monocytic CD14+ cells. The roles of CVB and adenovirus receptor and Fcgamma receptor II and III have been shown. Increased viral replication and the release of infectious particles were demonstrated when interferon (IFN)-alpha produced by infected cells was first neutralized by use of antibodies. The CVB4 IgG-induced synthesis of IFN-alpha by monocytes reflected entry and uncoating of CVB4 but not of viral replication and required the presence of CVB4 RNA inside the cells. Thus, CVB4 can infect monocytes by an antibody-dependent mechanism through interactions between the virus, antiviral antibodies, and specific receptors that result in IFN-alpha production.

- "The results showed that preexisting antibodies against EV71 in local mucosal surfaces correlated with following viral infection , which suggesting an antibody dependent enhancement (ADE) of viral infection. The phenomenon of ADE has been documented for many viruses, including dengue virus, respiratory syncytial virus, human immunodeficiency virus, and Ebola virus (Girn et al., 2002; Halstead and O'Rourke, 1977; Hober et al., 2001). ADE was also observed in many members of the Picornaviridae family including poliovirus and enterovirus such as EV71, coxsackievirus B, which were identified for targeting macrophage and monocyte in vitro (Tirado and Yoon, 2003; Wang et al., 2010). "
Article: EV71 infection correlates with viral IgG preexisting at pharyngo-laryngeal mucosa in children[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Enterovirus 71 (EV71) infection causes severe central nervous system damage, particularly for children under the age of 5 years old, which remains a major public health burden worldwide. Clinical data released that children may be repeatedly infected by different members in enterovirus and get even worsen. Mucosa, especially epithelium of alimentary canal, was considered the primary site of EV71 infection. It has been elusive whether the preexsiting viral antibody in mucosa plays a role in EV71 infection. To answer this question, we respectively measured viral antibody response and EV71 RNA copy number of one hundred throat swab specimens from clinically confirmed EV71-infected children. The results released that low-level of mucosal IgG antibody against EV71 broadly existed in young population. More importantly, it further elucidated that the children with mucosal preexsiting EV71 IgG were prone to be infected, which suggested a former viral IgG mediated enhancement of viral infection in vivo.Virologica Sinica 03/2015; 30(2). DOI:10.1007/s12250-014-3555-2
- "Various studies have reported that HEV-B RNA can be detected in blood/PBMCs of type 1 diabetes patients [14], [48], although the source for the viral RNA remains unknown. Previous studies have shown that monocytes can be infected by HEV-B via antibody-dependent mechanisms [49], and more recently it has been described that pDCs become activated by CVB in an antibody-dependent fashion – although whether the virus also productively infects pDC was not extensively studied [50]. Our data reveal that myeloid DCs can be infected with EVs (in the absence of antiviral antibodies) and thus might be an enterovirus target in vivo and serve as a virus reservoir in blood. "
Article: Differential Susceptibility and Response of Primary Human Myeloid BDCA1+ Dendritic Cells to Infection with Different Enteroviruses[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Coxsackie B viruses (CVBs) and echoviruses (EVs) form the Human Enterovirus-B (HEV-B) species within the family Picornaviridae. HEV-B infections are widespread and generally cause mild disease; however, severe infections occur and HEV-B are associated with various chronic diseases such as cardiomyopathy and type 1 diabetes. Dendritic cells (DCs) are the professional antigen-presenting cells of our immune system and initiate and control immune responses to invading pathogens, yet also maintain tolerance to self-antigens. We previously reported that EVs, but not CVBs, can productively infect in vitro generated monocyte-derived DCs. The interactions between HEV-B and human myeloid DCs (mDCs) freshly isolated from blood, however, remain unknown. Here, we studied the susceptibility and responses of BDCA1(+) mDC to HEV-B species and found that these mDC are susceptible to EV, but not CVB infection. Productive EV7 infection resulted in massive, rapid cell death without DC activation. Contrary, EV1 infection, which resulted in lower virus input at the same MOI, resulted in DC activation as observed by production of type I interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs), upregulation of co-stimulatory and co-inhibitory molecules (CD80, CD86, PDL1) and production of IL-6 and TNF-α, with a relative moderate decrease in cell viability. EV1-induced ISG expression depended on virus replication. CVB infection did not affect DC viability and resulted in poor induction of ISGs and CD80 induction in part of the donors. These data show for the first time the interaction between HEV-B species and BDCA1(+) mDCs isolated freshly from blood. Our data indicate that different HEV-B species can influence DC homeostasis in various ways, possibly contributing to HEV-B associated pathology.PLoS ONE 04/2013; 8(4):e62502.

- "The present study demonstrates that CV- B4 in ADE conditions can stimulate the synthesis of IFNa by differenciated-THP-1 cells. Although the level of IFNa in the supernatant fluid was low in the THP-1 model, the antibody-dependent enhancement of CV-B4 infection in this monocyte-like cell line associated with the synthesis of IFNa is in agreement with previous reports demonstrating that monocytes were the major target of the virus and were IFN-a-producing cells among PBMC in response to CV-B4eIgG complexes [24] [43]. This study shows that PMA-activated THP-1 cells can be considered as a model to investigate further the mechanisms of the infection with CV- B4 that is enhanced with antibodies. "
Article: Antibodies enhance the infection of phorbol-ester-differentiated human monocyte-like cells with coxsackievirus B4[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Coxsackievirus B4 (CV-B4), in presence of antibodies and through a specific viral receptor CAR and Fcγ receptors II and III, can infect monocytes which results in interferon-α synthesis. The antibody-dependent enhancement of CV-B4 infection in the human monocytic-like THP-1 cell line has been investigated. The preincubation of CV-B4 with human plasma or human polyvalent immunoglobulins enhanced the infection of phorbol-myristate-acetate (PMA)-activated THP-1 cell cultures. CV-B4 replicated in these cells as demonstrated by the intracellular detection of infectious particles, viral protein VP1 (immunofluorescence), positive and negative viral RNA (RT-PCR). The viability of infected and control cell cultures was not different up to 20 days post-infection. Activated cell cultures inoculated with CV-B4 harbored intracellular RNA up to 14 days post-infection and produced IFNα that was detected by intracellular immunofluorescence staining as soon as 4 h post-infection with a maximum at 48 h post-infection and by RT-PCR all along the experiment. Together, these data demonstrate that PMA-activated THP-1 cells can be infected with CV-B4, can produce IFNα as a result of interactions between the virus, antibodies and specific receptors. This cellular model can be used to investigate further the mechanism and the result of the antibody-dependent enhancement of CV-B4 infection.Microbes and Infection 10/2012; 15(1).

Journal Sentinel sports columnist Bob Wolfley offers his take on the local and national sports scene.
NBA TV to air Chamberlain documentary
"Wilt 100," an NBA TV original film narrated by Bill Russell, is to premiere at 6 p.m. Friday on NBA TV.
The one-hour documentary is about the night Wilt Chamberlain scored 100 points for the Philadelphia Warriors in his team's 169-147 victory over the New York Knicks on March 2, 1962 in Hershey, Pa. Friday marks the 50th anniversary of that game.
There is no film of the game. A crowd of 4,124 saw it, but many more remember being there.
In the 1962 National Basketball Association season, Chamberlain averaged 50.4 points and 25.7 rebounds.

Google builds on its Favorite Places program with retail barcodes designed to be used with mobile applications.
Google plans on mailing around 100,000 window stickers to restaurants, hotels, bars, and other retail entities around the nation during the next two weeks. Each sticker will have a unique scannable barcode that is designed to work with numerous popular mobile phones and help local businesses target on-the-go consumers with promotions such as coupons.
From the user perspective, the phones will need to include a camera feature and have an app that scans barcodes, according to an announcement by the Mountain View, CA-based online giant earlier today. The initiative builds on the brand's "Favorite Places" program for Google Maps that started last summer, while beginning its first outreach to local businesses in an effort that's expected to continue into 2010.
A spokesperson for the search site explained the local businesses for this initial run were selected due to having an established account in Google's "Local Business Center" and producing a high number of clicks on their Google.com and Google Maps listings. Site stats were included in the literature that accompanied the decal-styled stickers, said the spokesperson, as well as "ideas for how to use the 'Local Business Center' as a daily tool for running their business, and an overview of why the sticker could be useful to them, and how their potential customers could use them."
The spokesperson added: "We removed categories that we felt were inappropriate to receive a decal from Google. We did not impose arbitrary cutoffs by city; for example, there were around 3,700 businesses receiving decals in New York City."
The rectangular sticker is about the size of a large postcard. The Google Maps logo is featured at the top, with the copy "We're a Favorite place on Google" prominently appearing below. The barcode sits in the lower right-hand corner alongside the search engine's signature red pin that's regularly seen on its maps.
If shoppers choose to scan the barcode with their phone, they will be taken to a mobile version of the "Place Pages" application that was announced by Google in September. There, the viewer will see consumer-generated reviews and possibly coupons if the store chooses to implement them.
End users will also be able to place a star next to the business to remind them that they are interested in patronizing it in the future. Such information would be stored in their Google/Gmail account if they have one.
At any rate, after the two-week mailing is completed, the window stickers will appear in around 9,000 U.S. towns and cities.

Choose from Three Options
- $49 for a bartending experience for one (a $110 value)
- $99 for a bartending experience for two (a $220 value)
- $179 for a bartending experience for four (a $440 value)
- See the schedule

Students learn the basics of bartending––such as when to use each glass type, how to measure spirits, and how to use basic bartending terms––before they watch a pro make classic martinis and seasonal specials. The entire experience lasts about four hours, two of which are spent in a cocktail-party setting. Before they leave, the pupils receive a complimentary glass and a certificate of completion.

Bistro 7
It's hard to commit to a favorite dish at Bistro 7. Menu items can be here-today-gone-tomorrow, much like a snowman or your trust in Margaret. At the farm-to-fork restaurant, the cooks source from local farms whatever ingredients they can't pluck from the onsite garden. Luckily, there are always tasty new takes on American cuisine––presented via small plates, burgers, and entrees––to delight dinner guests, or large parties at catered on- and off-site events.
And though the lengthy menus showcase an impressive array of ingredients, the bistro's owner, Breno Donati, is perhaps most proud of his wine list. More than 50 plus varieties have been hand-picked by Donati himself from farms and small wineries, including several organic selections. Even the specialty cocktails are blended with fresh fruit, which diners enjoy while feasting eyes on the exposed bricks and dark wooden tables that lend the space a rustic-yet-refined ambience.
93% of 101 customers recommend
"This place is busy..well known with locals.make a reservation!! Wonderful !"
"Great food. Great service"
"The kale and ham on the eggs Benedict were VERY salty, but the ages were cooked perfectly."

Eating on the square or in this case Plaza is always a gamble and normally we try to avoid the overly obvious or tourist hot spots.

Came across San Juan plaza quiet by chance as we were out strolling looking for somewhere it have dinner. Walked into San Juan and saw about five restaurants there. Decided on Pepe el Torroa and must say it was excellent.

A busy Saturday lunchtime service and the square was buzzing - so a great atmosphere. The waiter was very friendly and our starter of clams, artichokes, prawns and wild garlic (to share) was excellent. But John Dory chopped up, floured and deep fried until crisp was not a good idea.
We got coupons from an ad in a newspaper and decided to buy since this is one of the most popular restaurants in town. Besides the paella, we got some starters and everything was fresh and correctly cooked. Our paella was made with lobster and it was delicious and more than enough, the portions were huge. The service was good...
Popped in for a drink at the bar, and after sampling a couple of tapas, decided to stay for dinner.

World Vision
FORT LAUDERDALE, FLORIDA (Sun-Sentinel) - Runners in next week's ING Miami Marathon and Half Marathon will have a chance to channel their energy into aiding victims of the earthquake in Haiti.
Participants in the race always have the option of directing their entry fees toward various registered charities. Last year's race raised more than $3 million for charity.
Race organizers are asking runners not already associated with a charity to join Team World Vision, which has been providing aid to Haiti since the hurricanes of 2008 and has stepped up efforts to raise funds and awareness since the 7.0 earthquake devastated the island nation.
"With such a large Haitian population in our South Florida community, we want to do our part in assisting with the recovery efforts for the people of Haiti," race director Dave Scott said.
Runners interested in joining Team World Vision and running or walking for the Haiti relief effort should visit http://www.teamworldvision.org/miami . To join the team and gain entry in the race, one must make a donation (tax deductible) equal to or greater than the entry fee.
Details about charity options and race registration can be found at http://www.ingmiamimarathon.com.
More than 18,000 runners are expected for the marathon and half marathon on Jan. 31, which will be a record for South Florida.
The deadline for advance registration is Friday with a fee of $75 for the half marathon and $100 for the marathon. Registration will resume on race weekend at the Nissan Health and Fitness Expo, Jan. 29-30 at Miami Beach Convention Center, and the fee will increase to $125 for either race.
You go, girl! That could be the rallying cry, as women will be in the majority for the first time in the eight years of the event.
Registration is about 20 percent ahead of last year, and women are largely responsible.
"In previous years men outnumbered women by a 54 to 46 percent ratio, but now that number is shifting with the increased numbers of female participants," Scott said.
The trend has been evident for some time throughout the running world. A recent survey by Running USA found that in 2007 women made up 49.4 percent of road race finishers. That was up from 26 percent 15 years earlier.
Consider that in 1967 a Boston Marathon official tried to rip the number off Katherine Switzer, who gained entry without making her gender clear. He'd be trampled today.
Women outnumbered men among finishers of the recent Palm Beaches Half Marathon.
Miami is the biggest of the three South Florida marathon/half marathon events. The races begin simultaneously at 6:15 a.m. in front of AmericanAirlines Arena and wind through South Beach, downtown Miami and Coconut Grove.
A memorial ride is planned Sunday in Key Biscayne for Christophe LeCanne, the 44-year-old cyclist struck and killed by a motorist last weekend.
Cyclists in Broward County are invited to join in a mass ride to the memorial forming at Alex Pro bike shop in Davie. The group will depart at 6 a.m. from the parking lot adjacent to the shop at 11466 W. State Road 84.
They will join the memorial ride beginning about 9 a.m. on Rickenbacker Causeway across from Mast Academy School.
LeCanne was killed Sunday in a hit-and-run crash. Carlos G. Bertonatti, 28, of Key Biscayne was arrested and charged with DUI manslaughter.
Running for Haiti
Matt Nelson is planning to run 80 miles from Wellington to Little Haiti on Friday with the goal of raising $5,000 for the Haiti relief effort. He will leave from St. Terese de Lisieux church and run to Notre Dame D'Haiti Catholic Church in Miami.

missing from the right-click menu of INSERT. The activation keys for QNX
modem and network versions are swapped in others.scn. There are some

To reduce duplicate bug reports, I have created a "Known Bugs" page that

Chrysoprase was used by the Greeks, Roman and Egyptians to make seals, signets, jewelry and other ornamental objects because of its vivid color. The modern word comes from the literal Greek translation chrusos meaning golden and prason, meaning leek, indicating the golden-leek green color of the stone.
Alexander III, an ancient Greek king of Macedonia, was on of the most successful, undefeated military commanders in Greek history. A strange story regarding a chrysoprase stone reputed to have been worn by Alexander is related by a Dominican friar named Albertus Magnus.
According to Magnus, Alexander always wore a girdle into battle that was embedded with a bright chrysoprase stone. On his return from a successful campaign in India, he laid aside his girdle to bathe in the Euphrates River. While the girdle lay unattended, a serpent came and bit off the stone and dropped it into the water. Alexander III didn't win another campaign after loosing this precious talisman.
After the discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamen in the early 1920s, the well-known Art Nouveau period, which celebrated exotic sensuality and romanticism, came to life in prolific glory. Chrysoprase was used extensively during this Nouveau era with Egyptian revival jewelry that mimicked the vast treasures of the newly discovered pharaoh's tomb.

Worried about scars after surgery? Know the types of scars to expect and how to best care for them.
Scars are an inevitable part of the breast augmentation process. You will have one, whether it's around the areola, under the arm, or under the breast. TUBA (navel incision) offers the least noticeable scar. However, there aren't an abundance of surgeons performing this particular procedure. Fortunately, breast augmentation scars, regardless of where they're located, tend to heal extremely well.
Under normal conditions, the collagen fibers in our body produce scars that are flat and over time turn into the same color as the individual's natural skin pigment. However, there are two types of scars that can form after breast augmentation, and proper scar treatment post-operation is essential to avoiding them:
Hypertrophic Scars:
These scars are raised, thick scars at the incision site. These often resemble the scars burn victims receive as a result of their injuries. The area most vulnerable to hypertrophic scars after surgery is the presternum, or upper chest area above the breasts – or any skin that is tight or under a lot of tension. These scars can occur within 1-2 months post-operation and grow rapidly from that time. They should gradually recede over time but inform your doctor if you encounter this type of scarring.
Keloid Scars:
A keloid scar is the worst type of scarring post-operation: it's a red and raised area, which can be uncomfortable and restrictive, depending on the part of the body on which it's located and the size of the scar. Keloid scarring is the result of the build-up of collagen in the area, making the scar larger than the actual size of the wound. In other words, the scar extends outside of the actual wound. Keloid scarring is more common with darker skin tones, such as African Americans or Hispanics. In appearance, the Keloid Scar can appear dark in pigment and shiny on the skin. They can also be tender to the touch. Patients can develop Keloid Scars within months or years after the surgery, making it important to attend post-op checkups and be diligent in any changes you find.
The photo below depicts a keloid scar.
Regardless of the type of scars, there are options available in scar treatment.
Silicone Sheeting
Silicone sheeting is the most popular of scar treatments. Patients apply the thin sheeting over the incision area during the day for two months, and they often see more rapid healing and less noticeable scar sites.
Silicone Gel Treatments
Silicone gel treatments are another popular option for healing scars. They are painted on to the incision site and self-dry. Patients are instructed to gloss over the incision site once or twice a day to see improvement in the look of healing scars.
