2004 Toyota Avalon XL 4dr Sedan w/Bucket Seats (3.0L 6cyl 4A)
Just bought this car certified used as a swap from an 02 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland. A LOT easier, more fun, comfortable to drive than a top line SUV. Rides like a dream even compared to other cars I have tested. Interior is very spacious and elegant. Dash is more recessed than most and feels like there is a ton of room because of it. Classy looking car that is basically a Lexus with the Toyota emblem instead. Great cargo space as I lost nearly nothing from a Jeep to this. First car I have had and enjoying the extra fuel mileage.
Interior overall. It is both comfortable and stylish. Perforations in the leather make hot days enjoyable on leather. Ride is spectacular.
Dash looks a little funky if you are not used to the Toyota line, but it grows on you and I actually prefer it now.
We have nearly 100,000 miles on the car and it still doesn't have any problems. We really like the roomy back seat with lots of leg room in front and back. We probably will buy another Avalon if the price is right.
Heated seats are great. We travel extensively so we like the trunk space too.
Include satellite radio! Bigger glove compartment. Wider side pockets to get things out easier.
Great mileage and very comfortable. Not very stylish though and considered and "old people's car" around here. I love it though.
Comfort and room.
I like it the way it is.
I bought this car 10-04-06. It is the finest vehicle I have ever driven. Smooth, comfy, handles easy. I had no idea a car could be this amazing. I drove from Oceanside, Ca. to Las Vegas Nv. on 1 tank of gas, over 300 miles & had gas to spare, amazing!
Smooth ride, comfy seats.
I was looking for a large car for me and my family. The Avalon has a good rep for reliability (so far well deserved) and is a pleasure to ride in. While it is quick - it is not a sports car - it's more of a highway cruser of old. I have had this car for close to two years and still look forward to driving it. What a pleasure to have a car put together and so well thought out as this one. Even with the bottom package, all the stuff is included - the V-6, power windows, locks, ABS, premium sound and comfort. I looked at smaller cars with all the options added - the price is not much different.You want a large smooth comfortable car? Get the Avalon!
The ride! If you don't need to drive like you are in a race - this is a great car. Also the power of the V-6 is nice to have when you need it. This car has the resume of a Lexus at the price of a top end Toyota. The car has been reliable - turn the key and go.
Not much room for improvement. It would be nice to have it handle better and traction control on the XL trimline would also be good.

I don't use salt anymore. Instead, I just put a few shakes of Mrs. Dash.
Mrs. Dash has lots of different flavors to flavor foods without all the sodium!!
I love minced garlic and crushed ginger and Mrs Dash seasonings for added flavor and no sodium
For air-popped popcorn, instead of salt and tons of butter, I use Mrs. Dash Table Blend and a table spoon or so of heart healthy spread, melted. Put the popcorn in a storage bag, shake in some Mrs. Dash and the "butter" and shake it until it's all blended. Yummy and still healthy!

|Brad Stevens remains obsessed with Spurs
|12.01.14 at 12:57 pm ET
The defending champions came into Boston on Sunday and blew the doors off of the struggling, young Celtics. The Spurs scored 66 points in the second half en route to a 22-point victory after the C's led by four points at the break. It was a dominant performance, and Brad Stevens took notice.
"I told the guys in the locker room, it's probably the best basketball team that I've seen in my adult lifetime, as far as how they're coached, how they play, their understanding, their roles," the Celtics coach said. "And you can hear them walking back in their locker room. There's a reason they're really good. They've built a bond and a trust that is very special."
Stevens has admired the Spurs since he joined the league following the Spurs' Game 7 loss to the Heat in the 2013 NBA Finals. He often spoke of them as a model of success, and then even more so after the Spurs were able to dethrone the Heat in convincing fashion in 2014. During draft workouts and summer league practices in Waltham this past offseason, Stevens seemingly was obsessed with finding anything he could steal from Gregg Popovich to incorporate into success for the Celtics.
The 38-year-old Stevens even reached out to the 65-year-old Popovich to pick his brain — something the Spurs coach was asked about before Sunday's game.
"He didn't find much," Popovich offered (with his typical smirk while speaking with media members).
"It's both flattering and embarrassing [that Stevens looks up to the Spurs], in a way," Popovich added. "We've been so fortunate over the years with the people we've had. As I've said often, who wouldn't want to follow David [Robinson] by drafting Tim Duncan and go from there. Your biggest job is not to screw it up. And we haven't, we have not screwed it up. That's the credit that we deserve. But that good fortune, anybody would like to start a program that way. I'm flattered by what he said. We do try and do things in a certain way. I think a lot of the things we do are pretty universal, but we make mistakes, too."
|Brad Stevens knows Celtics have 'got to finish' before they can even think about winning
|11.28.14 at 10:27 pm ET
Winners go for the jugular. Losers allow victory to slip through their hands.
Unfortunately, for Brad Stevens, he's seeing much too much of the slipping and not enough killer instinct, with Friday's 109-102 loss to the Bulls the latest example.
There's a common, unsettling theme developing between Stevens' rookie season of 25 wins and this season. The Celtics' coach watched Friday as a 16-point second-quarter lead evaporated. He then saw his team bounce back as they have so many times this season, taking an 81-72 lead late in the third quarter.
Was Friday finally going to be one of those rare days where the Celtics show the mental toughness to hang on for a quality win like they did on Nov. 8 in Chicago against these same Bulls?
Nope. Not when you shoot 5-for-26 (19.2 percent) in the final quarter, score 11 points, miss all eight 3-point attempts and convert just one of five free throws. The Celtics, like they did against Toronto, Oklahoma City and Cleveland just crumbled on their own parquet floor.
"I felt good coming into the game," Stevens said. "I felt good about what we did at the end of the game. I'm not going to lose too much sleep over the ball not going in the basket. I'll go back and re-watch the execution and the defensive possessions and those types of things, but I felt pretty good about it. Hey, we scored 102 points on Chicago and that's with an 11-point quarter. So we're doing a lot of good things, but we've got to finish. It's the difference between winning and losing."
After his team fell to 4-9 on the season, losing for the fifth time in six games, Stevens was asked if he's starting to question what he's doing based on all the losing.
"We can win by 30 and I'm questioning me," Stevens said. "This has nothing to do with [score]. I don't change game to game, as far as my own analysis or being overly critical or any of those types of things."

|Marcus Smart returns to practice, Avery Bradley tries to focus on being aggressive
|11.26.14 at 4:37 pm ET
The Celtics' main focus during their practices on Wednesday and Thursday will be on preparing to battle a tough Bulls team when Chicago arrives in Boston for a Black Friday matinee. However, a share of the spotlight will be on Marcus Smart's return to practice, with the hope that he can suit up after missing seven games with a sprained left ankle.
"It's just a matter of him getting back out here, and it's more about conditioning than it is about anything else right now," offered Brad Stevens. "Just because he hasn't done anything on the court physically, as far as five-on-five in the last three weeks, or whatever it's been."
One thing the team certainly will not do is rush Smart, especially after Avery Bradley attempted to return prematurely from an ankle injury just last season.
"I don't know [if Bradley can offer Smart any help on returning]," Stevens said. "Again, I trust our medical team and medical staff, and I think that Marcus and Avery, I'm sure, will share that discussion and talk about that. We don't want anybody to come back before they're physically able, because, obviously, you don't want to put yourself in a bad spot."
Bradley knows he put himself in a bad spot last year, so his advice to Smart was simple.
"It's tough. This is his first year. Obviously he wants to help our team out and he's a little disappointed that he hasn't been able to every single game," Bradley said. "He's back, but one thing everyone's been telling him is just make sure that your body feels good, listen to your body."
|Brad Stevens takes the fall for Rajon Rondo dribbling out the clock
|11.15.14 at 9:24 am ET
The immediate reaction by most Friday night was to blame Rajon Rondo for dribbling out the clock and not getting a shot off, the appropriate ending to a self-destruction at the hands of LeBron James and the Cavaliers in a 122-121 loss at TD Garden.
But to the cerebral Brad Stevens, there was much more to his star player not getting up a shot down a point with the game in the balance.
With seven seconds left, coming out of a timeout, Stevens watched as the Cavaliers and James took away the number one option in Jeff Green, forcing Kelly Olynyk to inbound to Jared Sullinger. The big man then dumped it to Rajon Rondo, who was fighting to get free from rookie Joe Harris. The Cavaliers switched Harris off a screen and Shawn Marion was on Rondo for the final four seconds. Then Rondo lost control before dribbling out the clock, firing up an off-balance attempt a full second after time expired.
"Well, we had a couple of different options," Stevens said. "We had Jeff over the top, which I'd have to look at the film to see if he had LeBron sealed for a lob. Obviously, it's a little bit riskier of a pass, but we had just thrown it to Jared and then we just had a simple swing to Rondo and our desire was to reject the screen. And he had a good match-up, but Joe Harris did a nice job on him, and we didn't get a shot off.
"Rondo isolated on a rookie on the right wing. I felt pretty good when he got the ball reversed to him. Again, give Joe Harris a lot of credit. He did a great job on that possession. We were trying to space and rip and drive and play. I told Rondo those plays start with me. I'll be responsible for that one."
|Brad Stevens preaches defense at practice, Marcus Smart speaks for first time since injury
|11.13.14 at 7:34 pm ET
Following Wednesday's home loss to the Thunder, Brad Stevens took the Celtics through a practice that lasted almost two hours on Thursday afternoon and not surprisingly, the focus was on defense after the C's let up 109 points to a severely short-handed Oklahoma City squad.
"I think we wanted to talk about some things we were doing defensively and not doing defensively," Stevens said. "We watched a lot of film of that. And then, you know, we'll see what the carryover looks like. [But it clearly] was a defensive oriented film session and review session."
Stevens added: "We did some good things. But we did not sustain them, and that was the other emphasis [Thursday]."
There was some positive news coming from the session.
Marcus Smart was up and walking around at the Celtics' practice facility, and also spoke to the media for the first time since spraining his left ankle during last Friday night's game.
"I've sprained my ankle before, plenty of times," said Smart. "It's a part of the game, it's a part of being an athlete. But I've never been in that type of pain with my ankle before, so it was something new to me."
The pain was obvious since Smart was ushered off the court on a stretcher, but even though the sprain turned out to be less serious than what seemed at the time, the rookie is being cautious about how he handles the injury moving forward.
"I'm just taking it slow, taking my time, [I want to] make sure I'm 100 percent," Smart said. "I don't really want to rush anything right now. Even though I'm going to feel better before I really am, I'm just trying to make sure that, you know, I'm 100 percent before I step on the court again."
Brad Stevens isn't the kind of coach to throw chairs or even raise his voice to get his point across when he's ticked off at his team.
But Wednesday night, after a complete and utter no-show in the second half of a 109-94 loss to the undermanned Thunder at the Garden, Stevens came as close to publicly calling them out as you'll see from the mild-manned coach.
"Well, I think it was, first of all, their energy and their togetherness, and their energy," Stevens said. "Their passion was obvious and evident. And I don't know if it was the fact that we missed a couple of shots that got us out of a rhythm, but the bottom line is we didn't guard them at all in the second half. And they had a lot to do with that. They ran good stuff, and they made shots."
Former Boston College sharpshooter Reggie Jackson and Anthony Morrow (28 points each) picked up the slack for a team missing Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook. The Thunder, who trailed 51-42 at the half, outscored the Celtics, 67-43, in the second half, as Boston allowed Oklahoma City to shoot 62 percent (26-of-42).
"Credit to them," Stevens said. "We talked about guys like Morrow; if you ever leave Morrow, he's going to score," Stevens said. "If you ever get hit on a screen and you're lost, he's going to score. And he scored a lot. And we let the big's run down the lane and dunk it a couple times. I mean, 67 points in a half is pretty poor."
|Rajon Rondo didn't want to miss last Saturday's game vs. Bulls
|11.11.14 at 3:40 pm ET
WALTHAM — The Celtics held practice at their training facility in Waltham on Tuesday as they prepare for a three-game homestand, beginning Wednesday night against the Thunder.
The most noteworthy news from practice was the fact that Rajon Rondo practiced in full after missing last Saturday's game in Chicago to have screws removed from his surgically repaired left hand. Although minor, this certainly was not a procedure that was planned far in advance — nor did Rondo seem happy about missing the game.
"Danny [Ainge] made a decision at halftime [of Friday's victory over the Pacers], I had no idea," said Rondo when asked when it was made official he wouldn't be joining the team on its flight to Chicago Friday night.
After Friday's game was when Rondo was notified he would be staying back in Boston to get the screws removed. Even without Rondo Saturday night, the Celtics defeated the Bulls, 106-101.
"[I] came in very pissed off, but, you know, the team got the win. … I just wanted to go travel with my team and play against Chicago," Rondo said.
Rondo added he thought he would have had the surgery on Sunday — an off day.
"Well, I thought we would have the day off Sunday anyway, and I thought I could do it Sunday, but they [Ainge and team doctors] make the decisions," Rondo said.

Home ⋅ Birthday Party Invitations ⋅ Animals ⋅ Cars & Trains ⋅ Space & Technology
"The cards came printed on heavy paper and the colors were bright and fun. I ordered them for my daughter's birthday. Everyone that saw them loved them. The picture on the card made them even better. I would buy from tiny prints again."
"I picked this card because I thought the graphics were best for a 5 year olds party. The text spacing was limited but the customer service department was excellent at warning me of issues and correcting my mistake. I was surprised that it was so small (I had envisioned a larger card) and I would have liked to put a little text on the back. But, it'll be a fine invite for this party!"
"I ordered this invitation for my grandson's 3rd birthday. He loves trains, and he was so excited when he saw the invitations. The overall quality of the invitation is great, and we have received so many compliments on the invitation! Also, the invitations were shipped super quick!"
"My son would not put down this card when we opened the box! He loved seeing himself pictured with all the bugs. The colors are bright, so I used the sepia effect on the two outer photos. It made my dominant pic stand out more."
"We were looking for some race car invites for our son's 2nd birthday. All of the ones we looked at (online) were bulky and too busy. We were so happy when we found this one because it goes with the theme but also is simple, easy to read, and a perfect size to place on the fridge. Colors are calming and the card stock is wonderful. I also like how you can add a photo to the back of the invite."

A hot mic on NBC's hit talent show "The Voice" caught Maroon 5 singer and co-host Adam Levine saying, "I hate this country," after singer Amber Carrington was "saved by America," The Washington Examiner reported Wednesday.
The co-host tried to assuage the anger that ensued after his on-air faux pas, by tweeting a series of definitions this morning.
"joke- noun 1. something said or done to provoke laughter or cause amusement, as a witticism, a short and amusing anecdote, or prankish act."
The singer also tweeted definitions for "humorless," "lighthearted" and "misunderstand."
The Examiner reports that voters cut Mr. Levine's team members Judith Hill and Sarah Simmons from the show Tuesday night.

19th July is a very important day in the lives of children all over the world. For, 19th July is celebrated as Father's Day in most of the countries. On 19th July 1910, First Fathers' Day was celebrated when the governor of US state of Washington proclaimed nation's first father's day.
Father's day is a celebration meant to recognize the efforts put in by our fathers in raising us, giving us good education and sacrificing many material comforts for our well being. In fact, father's day is the day when we should celebrate not only our father but all the fathers of the world who do so much for their children without making any fuss about it.
The origin of this special day lies in the efforts made by an American woman named Sonora Smart Dodd. Sonara heard a sermon about Mother's day in a church. After hearing the sermon, Sonara decided that there should be a day to show our love and respect towards fathers since her father had raised her and her five siblings after her mother passed away. Celebrating father's day seemed a right way to honor her father.
Initially people mocked the idea and it met with resistance from the influential people of the society but Sonara persisted. Later on, on 19 July 1910 first father's day was proclaimed but it was only in 1972, the day became an official holiday in USA.
This year, celebrate father's day as a mark of respect for your father and honor him by fulfilling his wishes. Don't hesitate to utter a few words of thanks to him and show your love and respect for him.

A thrilling, science-fiction adventure that takes its readers on a journey of discovery and imagination thousands of feet deep, deep into the centre of the earth. When a priceless coded parchment falls from a book, eccentric Professor Lidenbrock and his nephew Axel set about working out its instruction. Once they've read it, they set about their exploration, which is a miraculous combination of science and fantasy. As Diana Wynne Jones says in her introduction, as this is an old book the story is slow to unravel but the imagination is unequalled while Professor Lidenbrock has the distinction of being the original mad professor who has had since had many imitators.
Journey To The Centre Of The Earth (with an introduction by Diana Wynne Jones) by Jules Verne
An ancient book is opened by the eccentric Professor Lidenbrock and his life - and the life of his nephew Axel - is changed for ever. An old piece of paper has tumbled from the book, a priceless parchment that will lead them on a terrifying journey to find what lies at the centre of the Earth.

Re: socom 4 updates???
Same issue here, tried deleting game data and re-installing but still get the same problem.
Only way I've been able to play the game is to delete the game data, disable the network connection re-install from the disc. Problem with that is I'm not playing with any of the latest patches and can't play online...
Any ideas/help anyone?

At the same time, the researchers also tested area residents, using skin prick testing to assess the levels of sensitization to the five pollens. If someone reacts on a skin prick test, they're said to be sensitized to that substance. However, being sensitized to a substance in an allergy test doesn't always translate to noticeable symptoms, though there's often a correlation between the two.
"We observed a constant increase of the percentage of subjects sensitized to olive, parietaria and cypress, whereas the percentage of subjects sensitized to dust mites remained unchanged over 27 years," Passalacqua said.
Estelle Levetin, a professor of biology who chairs the biological sciences faculty at the University of Tulsa in Oklahoma said that "the data already show that pollen seasons could be longer and pollen levels could be higher, and although this needs more study, it may be that the pollen grain is becoming more allergenic when plants are grown with higher carbon dioxide levels."
This means that people with allergies might need to start taking allergy medications earlier and continue them for a longer period of time, Levetin said. Anyone who feels that their allergies are starting earlier should discuss this with their doctor, she said.

BlackBerry Torch 9860 Review
The BlackBerry Torch is has finally gone all touchscreen. It started out as an iconic qwerty slider phone and slowly evolved into a touchscreen smartphone. Check out our full review of the BlackBerry Torch 9860 after the jump.
There were actually two BB Torch handsets that were launched recently. The BB Torch 9810 still features a sliding qwerty keyboard and touch display while our review unit is the Torch 9860 that's a full touchscreen handset.
This isn't the first time BlackBerry had a full touchscreen phone in their line-up. I can still remember how they implemented it on the BlackBerry Storm around 3 years ago.
Though not as thin as its other siblings (Curve 9360 and Bold 9900), the Torch 9860 is still relatively thin at 11.5mm.
The display is just 3.7″ (diagonal) which is just enough and slightly larger than the one on the iPhone 4 and the Torch 9810. The screen resolution is 480×800 pixels giving it a density of 252ppi.
The display is bright and crisp with good contrast and color saturation. The capacitive screen is pretty responsive to the touch and gesture commands.
Despite its full touchscreen interface, the Torch 9860 still sports a number of physical buttons for navigation — actually, all the usual buttons are there in physical form, including the optical trackpad which has long replaced the optical trackball.
The microUSB port is on the left side while the volume controls are on the right, along with the dedicated camera shutter and the 3.5mm audio port. The lock button is also found on the top or forehead section of the device, same one on the Bold 9790 and the Curve 9360.
The back panel is made up of anodized aluminum with a laser-etched logo of BlackBerry. The 5MP autofocus camera is there along with the LED flash.
Speaking of the camera, shots are actually decent but the sensor isn't that fast enough to be able to get really sharp photos so you oftentimes get blurry shots.
[uds-billboard name="torchbillboard"]
The 720p video recording looks good though. Not very sharp but good enough. You'll notice some dropped frames in this sample below.
I guess the biggest deal here is the touchscreen or virtual keyboard. We're already very familiar with how good the physical qwerty keypads of the BlackBerry line and having used and reviewed the latest iterations (Curve 9360, Bold 9790, Bold 9900), I'm already impressed with how soft, tactile and ergonomic those keyboards are.
The same cannot be said of the virtual keyboard of the Torch 9860. Although I already expected as much, I was still surprised at how they implemented it on the handset.
In portrait mode, the virtual keyboard is plain and simple yet feels a bit cramped. I guess they can't do anything more with that narrow space.
It's a little hard to type into the screen because the individual keys are so thin even if they spaced them apart, you'll likely to miss a key or two. If you're a seasoned touch-typist on a touchscreen phone, the one on the Torch 9860 still lacks some sort of visual or tactile feedback.
To remedy, BlackBerry offers additional keyboard layouts. The reduced keyboard provides for Sure-Type (bigger keys but with 2 letters per key) and Multi-Tap (which is similar to the standard alphanumeric layout).
In the landscape orientation, the typing experience becomes more comfortable and easier. You'll end up using both hands to touch-type but the spacing is wider and the keys are fatter.
I guess this is the best way to type on the Torch 9860 especially if you're an experienced BB user. I would have suggested they added an alphanumeric keyboard layout but that's already a departure on the BB qwerty signature (unless of course you include the BlackBerry Pearl).
Where the Torch 9860 excels is the multimedia department. This is primarily because you get a much more usable screen real estate to play with. Unlike the flagship Bold 9900 or even the Torch 9810 with their 2+ inch screens (the Torch 9810 has a 3.2″ display), the BlackBerry Torch 9860 offers a relatively large 3.7″ display.
As such, playing games from the AppWorld is much more enjoyable, browsing the web with its built-in browser is more comfortable and running apps like FB, Twitter and Maps makes more sense because of the screen real estate.
The Torch 9860 performs really well, much like the Bold 9790 and the 9900. The specs will speak for itself and since it's running on BlackBerry OS 7, you get a fluid and more optimized environment. That gives you a different perspective and experience of the OS and its UI design.
BlackBerry Torch 9860 specs:
1.2GHz Qualcomm 8655 processor
3.7″ TFT capacitive display @ 480×800 pixels
4GB internal storage, 768 MB RAM
HSDPA 14.4 Mbps, HSUPA 5.76 Mbps
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n
Bluetooth 2.1 w/ A2DP
GPS w/ aGPS support
5MP autofocus camera w/ LED flash
720p video recording
Li-Ion 1230 mAh battery
BlackBerry OS 7
Conspicuously absent is the NFC feature which is already available on the Bold 9900.
Battery life is tricky. It will last you the whole day but that really depends on how much you use the handset. For the most part, you will likely need to recharge by end of the day. BlackBerry handsets suffer from poor battery life because they are mostly connected to the net (specifically, for BBM to work).
The Torch 9860 is a hit or a miss — either you hate it because you're so used to the physical keypad of the previous BB handsets or you'll love because it offers the screen real estate no other BB handset has ever provided (giving you better appreciation of the apps, web browsing and games).
The BlackBerry Torch 9860 has a suggested retail price of Php24,690 and comes in two-year warranty.

I purchased a BB 8520 a few months ago. I wanted to know how to get the version of OS installed. Also, can I upgrade it to OS 7?
The Curve 8520 does not support OS7. (actually, all previous devices because RIM said that OS7 is too big that previous handsets cant handle it.).
Well, to upgrade your OS, try downloading Blackberry Desktop Software on your PC and plug your device in. it will detect if there are any available update for your device :)
Hope I was able to help you :]

This was supposedly named after its predecessor Storm however RIM decided to cut the Storm series so they had this phone under Torch. Camera is really nice and at this point i can say that it is better than the 9900's camera. Great stuff Yuga! Keep it up
Technically, Storm is a click to touch screen device while Torch is RIM's first full capacitive touch screen device.
Dude dont be technical with me because i work with RIM. The 9860 was supposedly under the Storm line whereas as you said "full touch screen" but RIM decided to remove the Storm line altogether and added the 9860 to the Torch line. Don't embarrass yourself i know what im talking about :)

Harrington Calls Out Wasserman Schultz To Release Her Tax Returns
By Javier Manjarres
DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz has just bet the house, again. Wasserman Schultz is again calling on Republican Presidential nominee Mitt Romney to release his tax returns. The Weekly Standard and Fox News picked up on this yesterday, citing Wasserman Schultz's first request of Romney to release his tax returns back in April.
In the article, Wasseman Schultz's Republican opponent in the November general election, Karen Harrington, calls out Wasserman Schultz, asking her to release her tax returns. (Source-Fox News)
WCVB-BOS: Are you the best attack dog on this particular issue considering you've never released your income taxes?REP. DEBBIE WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: Absolutely. I'm not running for president. Mitt Romney is running for president.WCVB-BOS: You are a public official, though, are you not?WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: I file full financial disclosure required under the law. Mitt Romney is actually the first candidate in modern history to only release one year of a tax return.
Here is Harrington's press release from April 15 (Tax Day)-
Karen Harrington Calls On Congresswoman Wasserman Schultz to Release Her Tax Returns
This week millions of taxpaying Americans will fulfill their requirement of filing their tax returns by paying any and all taxes due to the federal government. Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz has been asking Republican Presidential candidate Mitt Romney to release his 2011 tax return even after Governor Romney released his 2010 tax return.
Congresswoman Wasserman Schultz's request of Governor Romney to release his tax returns screams of hypocrisy, because to the best of our knowledge, Congresswoman Wasserman Schultz has never released a single tax return of her own. As a Member of Congress, she is required to release a yearly 'financial disclosure,' this yearly disclosure is not a tax return.
While asking for Governor Romney to release his past tax returns, and in keeping with the spirit of President Obama's call for 'full transparency,' we ask Congressman Wasserman Schultz to release her own tax returns.
Karen Harrington will release her tax returns upon media requests and ask that Congressman Wasserman Schultz do the same.-Karen Harrington
Now in light of Wasserman Schultz's recent request of Governor Mitt Romney, Harrington reaffirms her call for Wasserman Schultz to release her tax returns-
Will Rep.Wasserman Schultz Release Her Tax Returns?
Congressman Debbie Wasserman Schultz continues to ignore our request for her to release her tax returns. While she continues to harangue Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney to release his tax returns, Debbie doesn't believe that full transparency applies to herself, as she has dodged our request to release her own tax returns by stating that she is "not running for President."
Debbie may not be not running for President, but she is running for federal office. We believe that what's good for the goose is good for the gander- if you are repeatedly calling for your political opponents to fully disclose their tax returns, Debbie should be prepared to do the same.
To this point, Debbie continues to dodge our request for her tax returns. The question now arises- just what is the Congresswoman hiding?
In the interests of full disclosure, we once again call on Congressman Wasserman Schultz to release her most recently filed tax returns. Karen Harrington has already pledged to immediately disclose her tax returns once Congressman Wasserman Schultz decides to disclose her own.-Karen Harrington(Source)

Love this lotion, especially in the winter when the heat causes even drier, thirstier skin. It's very moisturizing and somewhat thick. I don't purchase any other lotions now.
Alpha hydroxy acids smooth skin and help with exfoliation. After a few weeks or so of regular use, keratosis pilaris disappears.
This lotion is only sold in a few places online, so use a search engine to find it. That's unfortunate because it's one of the better lotions I've tried. I've tried many formulations at many different prices over the years and have not had any better results. Actually, in most cases, I've had less than stellar results with more expensive products.
This is a great product at a great price. I usually order 3 bottles at once. It's important to store lotion in a cabinet or something, as sunlight can break down the AHAs, making them less effective.
Now for the cons:
1. As others have mentioned, no fragrances have been added, so it just smells like bland lotion. But at least it won't interfere with perfumes.
2. The bottle could be better done, perhaps adding a pump dispenser. At least configure the top so the bottle can be stored upside down.
The lotion is somewhat thick so, as the amount dwindles, you end up shaking and/or squeezing the bottle wildly to dispense enough lotion. It's a pain. I prop it upside against something and wait a while (or leave it overnight), but there has to be a better way.
3. Also related to the bottle, making it opaque would help prevent sunlight from eventually reducing the effectiveness of the AHAs.

I really love this body lotion! I have only been using it a few days, so I look forward to writing another review in a few more weeks, but so far so good. It is very moisturizing. Stings a tiny bit when you first put it on, but that goes away quickly. Leaves my dry arms and chest extremely silky smooth. I am excited to see if it makes any difference in my porokeratosis on my arms. They are very dry and rough. Time will tell...

It's an ok body lotion...leaves my body smooth and the smell is ok. I bought it to use it on my feet because the ingredients are the same as in the foot cream but didn't really do anything great to make me buy it again.

This is saving me. I have struggled with body acne (my whole back, especially my shoulders, between my breasts, my butt, and sometimes the sides of lower sides of my back) since I hit puberty... so it's been almost 8 years now. It has gotten progressively worse as I got older, though it has leveled off by now. I would not say it is severe my any measure... somewhere between mild and moderate, with fluctuations. The thing is...it is consistent and stubborn. I was originally using the 10% lotion for the face all over my back and chest which cleared me up. AHA is the first thing to ever work on my body acne. When I saw this product on their website, I jumped and immediately ordered it. I am SO pleased it has no smell to it, and it is extremely moisturizing and effective. For full effects, it does take about two months, with definite improved in the first 2-3 weeks. The only thing that irks me is that it never truly dries on your skin... it kind of remains moist and a little bit tacky all the while you have it on. I don't care. I'll take that over embarrassing and self-esteem crushing scabbed over blemished and red marks all over my body. The price is right, too. NOTE: Please don't listen to the negative reviews below, this has been reformulated since those reviews were written and is much improved, I'm sure of it! Don't let it discourage you from how great this product is.

I wanted to add a new review for the improved version of this lotion. I've been looking for a good AHA body lotion due to icky texture on my arms, and dry elbows no matter what kind of torturous process I put them through to soften them up (I've been in pain many-a-time from taking a pumice stone to them with only one-day of softness to show). I was hesitant b/c the reviews below talked about the awful sour smell which I am familiar with from other AHAs. However, the new scent is great. It's VERY light, something I would almost classify as unscented. It smells almost identical to CeraVe Moisturizing Lotion IMO. In addition, the product itself works great. My skin texture has been steadily improving, and my elbows are actually soft now, and not dry and scaly anymore. I wish this came with a pump b/c I don't particularly like the squeezy bottle for a lotion generally, and this one is a bit stiff to squeeze...you either use a lot of force and get a ton of product or nothing; but I can always transfer it to a different bottle I suppose. Product is definitely worth it, and its much cheaper than other high quality and high % AHA lotions out there.

This review is for the newest Silk Wrap Body Lotion, 12% Glycolic acid. It smells GREAT! Unlike earlier reviews that referred to previous versions of this product, the company has really worked on the scent and it is wonderful: light, soft, just a bit floral.
I'll update after I've used this for awhile (just got it today in the mail). But, I'm hopeful because other AHA products in their line are awesome!

The brand has changes packaging and lables from time to time, so just know this review is for the 10% AHA body lotion.
Pros: My skin is as smooth and even textured as it ever could be. Its a good one step moisturize and exfoliate, instead of scrubbing for hours in the shower with a grainy scrub and then getting out and slathering with body butter. I used to have bumpy skin on my hips and the upper parts of my arms and now they are perfectly smooth.
Cons: Smells like vinegar. So I only wear it at night, and that's fine because one application per day is more than enough.

This has made my skin so incredibly soft on my body & because it cleared up some bumps on my upper legs & upper arms; I decided to try using it on my face. I apply this on my face twice per day, then apply my regular moisturizer & eye cream. I've been using it on my face for a few weeks & I am loving the results. As I was hoping, my blemishes (I always have at least one or two on my face) are so much better! I have a few that are going away & no new ones have surfaced. It makes my skin so smooth & has been helping clear my acne. I have dry skin and it has not made me dry at all. In fact, I think it may be clearing away my dry flakes that I usually have in my tzone area because I haven't had much of since using. I do use the Retinol ResQ once or twice a week at night instead of this, just to help combat the future wrinkles & since I bought that along with this gem. I ordered online from the official website, was on sale buy one at regular price, get one for $1.00. You can catch this on sale periodically. Stock up when you can. The smell is a bit floral/perfume but it doesn't bother me. I tried the Souffle but it stung a bit & I didn't see results like I do with the silk wrap. I stopped using this all over my body, but I do use it daily on my upper back of arms & chest & upper back. I have not broken out or had bumps in those areas either, like I normal do have a few here and there. This may be HG for me...must give a couple more months to know for sure. I've gone through one whole bottle & am at the top of my second.

I reviewed this a few years ago and was looking for a glycolic cream recently, so I read the reviews again. It looked like the fragrance had improved, and Alpha Hydrox was having a buy one get one sale, so I bought a couple of bottles. I'm really glad I tried it again! I try to use it every night and my skin is really smooth. There is barely any scent at all, it goes on smooth, absorbs quickly, and isn't sticky. A great bargain if they're running BOGO sales!

This product is probably very effective, but I'll never know: The AquaNet smell is completely overpowering. I've even tried mixing it with better-smelling lotions, but what a hassle (and it doesn't work entirely well-- I just hate to think of wasting money on this abysmally stinky product!)

Microsoft Standalone System Sweeper Tool1.0.856.0 Beta
editor's review
Curing an infected PC is no easy feat and sometimes not even the most powerful tools are able to completely remove the viruses. Nonetheless, one can at least try and the first step is getting inside the malware contaminated system, a task that is made possible by rescue utilities like Microsoft Standalone System Sweeper Tool.
Simple wizard interface for creating the recovery ISO
This program is designed to help anyone create a rescue CD or DVD and it is also suitable for use with bootable USB storage devices. It functions in a straightforward manner, guiding the user through the few steps that are necessary to complete the job.
Informative and easy to go through, the setup of Microsoft Standalone System Sweeper Tool needs only a few minutes to achieve its goal, namely to create a safe environment from where one can fight the viruses that affected a computer.
Quick device selection to speedily create the bootable media
Since there are only three possible choices regarding the device where Microsoft Standalone System Sweeper should be installed, the whole process should go on smoothly. Thus, it is possible to use a blank DVD or CD, a USB drive without password protections or create an ISO image that can be stored locally and written to disc at a later time.
The last option enables users to choose the location where the disc image will be stored and after downloading the content, the ISO file will be created automatically, without requiring any user intervention.
A convenient method to create a portable system rescue disc
All things considered, Microsoft Standalone System Sweeper Tool is a handy software solution devised to offer a simple means of building a secure environment that can be used for disinfecting malware infested PCs or attempting to rescue some files from that computer.

Imtiaz Ali and the art of last-minute filmmaking
MUMBAI (Reuters) – When Imtiaz Ali began filming his new movie "Highway", the Bollywood filmmaker had little more than a one-line script for a story he came up with years before his industry debut as a director.
Ali, 42, shot the film sequentially and often improvised dialogue on set, relying on the ambience to decide what his characters would do in a particular scene.
Issaq: Doomed love story
What director Manish Tiwary was trying to achieve in "Issaq", his version of Romeo and Juliet, only he can say. If you didn't know you were watching a modern-day retelling of Shakespeare's classic, you'd be forgiven for walking out halfway through the film.
The movie starts with a bizarre killing on a deserted bridge and then moves on to more bizarreness. "Issaq" is a disjointed effort, one that ceases to make any sense after the first few minutes.
Bajatey Raho: Much ado about nothing
Shashant Shah's "Bajatey Raho" is a comedy about a motley group of people who try to con a businessman out of the millions he made by cheating gullible clients.
Ravi Kishan plays evil businessman Sabharwal, who owns everything from schools to dairy farms and treats his staff like dirt.
Hollywood primed for film on Indian math genius Ramanujan
MUMBAI (Reuters) – A new Hollywood film starring Dev Patel as Srinivasa Ramanujan will put the spotlight on the Indian math genius best known for his work on the theory of prime numbers.
Ramanujan, who died in 1920, was considered one of the brightest minds in mathematics, despite his lack of a formal education.
Ship of Theseus: Looking for the right answers
During an interview about his 2012 film "Shanghai", director Dibakar Banerjee spoke about the difficulty of asking existential questions and portraying them coherently on the big screen.
Anand Gandhi, director of "Ship of Theseus", has the same problem but is able to execute it almost perfectly, a task most filmmakers would have found difficult.
D-Day: Gripping enough
(Any opinions expressed here are those of the author and not of Thomson Reuters)
The search for India's most wanted criminal and a fictitious operation to capture him in Pakistan is a great idea for a Bollywood movie. Filmmaker Nikhil Advani uses this premise in "D-Day" and exploits it to maximum effect.
Advani builds a gripping tale that chronicles a covert operation to bring back Goldman, a fictional mafia don undoubtedly based on Dawood Ibrahim. He lives in Pakistan, masterminds terrorist attacks in India, is protected by the government of the country and speaks to his henchmen in Marathi (The real-life Dawood Ibrahim is from Ratnagiri district in Maharashtra).
'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag' a rare sports film from Bollywood
MUMBAI (Reuters) – A new Bollywood film brings to life the story of one of India's greatest track athletes in a rare sports movie from a country obsessed with cricket.
"Bhaag Milkha Bhaag" (Run Milkha Run) is a three-hour biopic on Milkha Singh, known as the Flying Sikh, who finished fourth in the 400 metres at the 1960 Rome Olympics, missing the bronze medal by a hair's-breadth.
Bhaag Milkha Bhaag: The game is over
Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's biopic of Milkha Singh is one of the few sports movies to come out of the Indian film industry. It is also a perfect example of how not to make a sports biopic, and a telling comment on the compulsion of most filmmakers to "Bollywoodise" what starts off as an unusual subject and premise.
It seems Mehra and writer Prasoon Joshi started off with the noble intention of making a gritty film on India's most successful athlete, but fell back to their Bollywood ways. They added a bit of romance here, a song there, topped off with over-the-top melodrama, and convinced themselves that this was the heart-wrenching story of a man who fought against all odds to succeed at the international level.
Bollywood star Shah Rukh welcomes new baby with surrogate
MUMBAI (Reuters) – Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan announced on Tuesday that he and wife Gauri were parents of a baby boy born with a surrogate, putting to rest rumours swirling around the latest addition to the actor's family.
"Amidst all the noise that has been going around, the sweetest is the one made by our new-born baby, AbRam," Khan said in a statement.
Bollywood adapts O. Henry's 'Last Leaf' for 'Lootera'
MUMBAI (Reuters) – Vikramaditya Motwane first caught the attention of Bollywood in 2010 when his debut film made it to the Cannes film festival, competing in the "Un Certain Regard" category for emerging directors.
"Udaan" was a small-budget film about teenage angst and three years later, Motwane is wooing audiences with a big-ticket period romance inspired by "The Last Leaf", a short story by American writer O.Henry published in 1907.

Put some clean laundry away
more laundry
on the agenda today;
Put some clean laundry away
more laundry
I managed to get a little more sorting done in the kitchen yesterday so it's looking tidier. Clearing out the bedroom today then the work starts tomorrow. Then the real sorting out begins.....
I am the same i hate clutter but i also hate to be doing housework when everyone is in. So i tackle it when im alone Music blaring and im off . At the moment we have work being done to the outside of the house and have scaffold up,Its been there since October and i cant clean the outside of the windows and doors Its doing my head in !!!!! So i find myself out and about more but that means less housework getting done .Cant wait until its all finished and i can get cleaned up properly .
Scrubbed my hob and overhead fan today
Didnt really plan to do it Kinda just happened but was badly needed
Also gave the grill a wipe out while I was at greasy stuff
Cleaned toilet, sink and mirror as the kids bathed tonight
Have a list of whats needed for up there and will pick them up tomorrow along with a few other bits
Good flying day for me
Done the kids bedroom today You should have seen the crap that came out of there LOL they are now incased in a spotless room with all clean bedding under strict instructions not to mess it up ,Oh and when i was washing their rug my washing machine broke down
Well done both !
I've not had the best week fly-wise but I'm sure I will catch up !!
Why is it that whenever you clean somewhere, you turn your back and its a mess again?
Today's plan - bathroom scrub the tiles and skirting boards, mop the floor
Office - hmmm hoover & dust
Play room - 15 minute declutter 27 thing fling and sort out mount washmore which has erupted on the sofa bed.
Today has been my errand running day, still ahve a few more to do.
HAlf term next week- I shall be playing catch up !!
The bedroom is finished!!!! Now I just have to sort all the stuff back into it
woohoo !!!!
Errands here today too
Got bathroom hoovered (by my fly-dd)
Stripped my bed and washed bedclothes - still to be put back on
Bit of dusting in my bedroom and a 15 minute declutter in the utility room
I didnt tackle mount washmore (thankfully its all clean that just needs ironing)
But I did dust and hoover the office. Polish the mirrored wardrobes and fix my airer - so I can dry yet more washing to create a K2 style mountain of laundry. I also cleaned the kitchen properly, but since baking shortbread and making dinner, that hard work seemed to go astray. Off to shine my sink now.
I haven't been flyladying as such, but I have made a real effort to keep the house tidy. I had someone pop round the other day and the hubby always asks people in which is usually a bit embarrassing but not this time. Plus my folks are coming for a visit and all I've got to do is dust and clean the bathroom.
Feels good!
That's flying anyway!
I'm currently deliberating would it be naughty to bang the Hoover on while my husband is in bed nursing a hangover? Hmmm
Today I've recycled the dishwasher, started to mop the floor ( until little footsteps stopped play) I must sort the playroom and mount washmore.
School holidays this week so no wrok for me ( yay!!) and also means a concerted effort at home.
Today I'm going to get the uniforms all washed and out of the way.
Bit of pampering-the girls and I are off to the beauty salon shortly -holiday treat !!
Later we have a new bureau arriving which will need a slight move around in the lounge-but it will be good !! the bureau is to keep all my jewellery making stuff in which is currently spread all over the lounge-all good ??
If there's any spare time I will get some of the lean washing put away-lots of it upstairs !!

More charges in Palmetto home invasion
Published: Tuesday, November 1, 2011 at 9:26 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, November 1, 2011 at 9:26 a.m.
MANATEE COUNTY - The charges against three suspects in a home invasion case continue to stack up.
Sheriff's investigators recently arrested the following suspects, who were already in the Manatee County jail, on new warrants for armed home invasion, for which they have been denied bail:
• Kyle B. Evans, 23, of the 3400 block of Third Street West in Bradenton.
• Charles C. Williams, 37, of the 700 block of 19th Avenue West in Bradenton.
• Sheena Delphine Robinson, 29, of the 4100 block of 62nd Street West in Bradenton.
Palmetto Police say they quickly apprehended Williams and Robinson. Authorities say they arrested Evans later.
On Sept. 19, armed robbers entered a home in the 1200 block of 11th Avenue West in Palmetto through an unlocked door. Detectives say the intruders duct-taped the resident's legs together, stripped her, tied her hands with her bra, pressed firearms against her head and ransacked her home. The robbers took electronics and other items.
Williams now faces two home invasion charges plus charges of aggravated assault, facilitating commission of a felony and possession of a weapon by a convicted felon.
Robinson now faces two home invasion charges, plus charges of aggravated assault, giving false identification to law enforcement, facilitating commission of a felony, felony criminal mischief and witness tampering.
Evans now faces two home invasion charges, plus a count of kidnapping. He is also being held on a warrant from Sumter County for a misdemeanor.
