Plugin worked perfectly! I tested it as admin and logged off.
But I want it only to my visitors, I don't wanna use it myself. I use Dreamweaver to format my comments and paste desired HTML source directly.
Is there a way to disable it only to me, and leave it to everybody else?

editor's review
xVideoServiceThief is an application designed to help you download your favorite clips from popular video sharing services.
Besides the fact that it provides support for a wide array of well-known websites, xVideoServiceThief also boasts a powerful video conversion feature that automatically converts downloaded clips to a user-defined format.
While the interface is very clean and intuitive, a very good thing is that xVideoServiceThief comes with drag and drop support, which means you can easily drag a link over the main window to instantly start a new download.
And speaking of the main window, it displays the video name, size, progress, time and speed, along with some other stats such as videos count, downloading and download speed. Plus, there are dedicated buttons to manage the downloads, including the typical start, pause and cancel, as well as a special field to configure downloads folder.
Another good thing about xVideoServiceThief is the fact that it comes with plugin support, which means support for new websites can be added with ease.
Plus, in case you wish to restrict download from adult websites or any other supported online video sharing service, there's a special screen in the "Options" menu to configure the blocked content and set up a password.

xVideoServiceThief does a very good job when it comes to downloading and converting video files, but the download speed also depends on your Internet connection, so it may take a while to get the job done.
Overall, xVideoServiceThief is a very easy to use online video downloader, offering an easy to use interface and support for an impressively large collection of websites.

Press Release |
Gorman-Rupp Reports Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2012 Results
Gorman-Rupp Reports Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2012 Results
* Reuters is not responsible for the content in this press release.
http://pdf.reuters.com/htmlnews/8knews.asp?i=43059c3bf0e37541&u=urn:newsml:reuters.com:20130208:nBw085397a http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20130208005397/en MANSFIELD, Ohio--(Business Wire)-- The Gorman-Rupp Company (NYSE MKT: GRC) reports financial results for the fourth quarter and twelve months ended December 31, 2012, highlighted by record sales during 2012 and the attainment of forty consecutive years of increased cash dividends paid to shareholders. Operating results for 2012 include Pumptron (Proprietary) Limited ("Pumptron") and the American Turbine Pump companies ("American Turbine") acquired in the third and fourth quarters of 2012, respectively. Net sales for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 increased 4.5% to a record $375.7 million compared to $359.5 million during the same period in 2011. Encouragingly, total international sales increased more than 15% to a record $136.5 million. Sales improved 6.0% in our larger water end markets and 4.9% in our non-water end markets. Major contributions to water market sales were international shipments of pumps for fire protection and an increase in agricultural market sales, partially offset by reduced construction market demand for pumps for natural gas drilling applications and from rental businesses. The increase in non-water market sales was primarily due to petroleum market shipments and international industrial market shipments. Sales of repair parts decreased modestly during 2012, as sales during 2011 were bolstered by pent-up demand. Gross profit was $90.2 million in 2012, resulting in gross margin of 24.0% compared to 24.4% in 2011. The decline in gross margin was principally due to a less favorable product mix combined with increases in healthcare costs and depreciation expense. Operating income was $42.2 million resulting in operating margin of 11.2% compared to 12.0% in 2011. The decline in operating margin was impacted as well by non-recurring acquisition-related expenses. As noted in the Company`s third quarter 2012 Form 10-Q, a GAAP-required $2.9 million non-cash pension settlement charge was subsequently required to be recorded in the fourth quarter 2012; this was comparable to the $3.0 million non-cash pension settlement charge recorded in the fourth quarter 2011. Excluding these non-cash charges, gross margin was 24.5% and 25.0% and operating margin was 12.0% and 12.8% for 2012 and 2011, respectively. Net income for 2012 was $28.2 million, our second highest net income, compared to a record $28.8 million in 2011. Earnings per share were $1.34 and $1.37 for the respective years. Excluding the decrease of $0.09 and $0.10 per share due to the non-cash pension settlement charges described above, earnings per share were $1.43 and $1.47 for 2012 and 2011, respectively. Net sales during the fourth quarter 2012 were $88.7 million compared to a record $93.0 million during the same period in 2011, a decrease of 4.7%. Sales declined $1.4 million during the quarter in our larger water end markets and $2.0 million in our non-water end markets compared to the same period last year. The decrease in water market sales was primarily due to reduced construction market demand for pumps for natural gas drilling applications and for rental businesses, partially offset by an increase in agricultural market sales. The quarter`s decline in non-water market sales was primarily in the OEM market due to reduced shipments of fabricated products related to power generation equipment. Sales of repair parts decreased $1.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2012 compared to the elevated demand experienced during the fourth quarter 2011. Gross profit was $18.9 million for the fourth quarter 2012 resulting in gross margin of 21.3%, comparable to 21.2% in the same period last year. Operating income was $5.4 million resulting in operating margin of 6.0% compared to 7.9% in fourth quarter 2011. The decline in operating margin was principally due to lower volume in the fourth quarter 2012 compared to the impact from record net sales in the same period last year. In addition, non-recurring acquisition-related expenses and integration costs combined with increased healthcare costs and depreciation expense further reduced operating margin by a total of approximately 100 basis points. Excluding the non-cash pension settlement charges described above, gross margin was 23.5% and 23.3% and operating margin was 9.4% and 11.1% for the fourth quarters of 2012 and 2011, respectively. Net income during the quarter was $3.7 million compared to $5.1 million in the fourth quarter 2011 and earnings per share were $0.17 and $0.24 for the respective periods. Excluding the non-cash pension settlement charges noted above, earnings were $0.26 and $0.34 per share for the respective periods. The Company`s backlog of orders was $143.4 million at December 31, 2012 compared to $155.5 million a year ago and $146.7 million at September 30, 2012. The expected decrease in backlog from December 31, 2011 was primarily due to anticipated shipments during the twelve months ending December 31, 2012 combined with anticipated lower incoming orders from the construction, municipal, industrial and OEM markets. The Company could see the backlog increase in the second quarter of 2013 by approximately $70 million based on a letter of intent to the Company to supply major flood control pumps to a member of a joint venture construction group for a significant New Orleans flood control project as announced by the Company October 1, 2012. The award of this joint venture project has been protested by unsuccessful bidders and is expected to be resolved by mid-2013. The Company`s balance sheet continues to remain strong with $20.4 million of cash and short-term investments at December 31, 2012. The Company generated $32.6 million in operating cash flow during 2012 compared to $21.1 million during 2011 and has excellent liquidity and flexibility. Working capital increased 5.6% to $110.9 million at December 31, 2012 compared to $105.0 million a year ago largely due to increased inventory, including additional engines to reduce future delivery lead-times, and from the two acquisitions made during the latter part of 2012. Short-term debt totaled $22.0 million at year end 2012 which includes $17.0 million borrowed by the Company in the fourth quarter 2012 to finance the acquisition of American Turbine. Jeffrey S. Gorman, President and CEO said, "We are pleased with again achieving record sales primarily as a result of organic revenue growth. However, incoming orders have moderated from record levels experienced during 2011 in some key end markets. Although we are encouraged by our growth in the agriculture, petroleum and international markets this past year, we anticipate the municipal and construction markets to remain somewhat sluggish for the near future due to the ongoing uncertain domestic economy. Taking advantage of our strong financial flexibility, the Company continued to make strategic investments during the year for future growth. These included the international acquisition of South Africa-based Pumptron and the domestic acquisition of Texas-based American Turbine which complement and broaden our existing pump portfolio and provide additional opportunities for global expansion of our major water markets and certain non-water markets. Also, we are very proud to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the Company`s founding during 2013 and we remain committed to continue creation of long-term value for our shareholders."

Ship Registry
Record Tonnage for Isle of Man Registry
Isle of Man Ship Registry Sails into The Year of The Dragon with Record Tonnage. The Isle of Man ship registry, one of the world's leading ship registries, just announced record tonnage for the year ending 2011, entering the Year of the Dragon with a bang. Gross Registered Tonnage (GRT) is the datum used to compare the world's ship registers and a year on year comparison shows a 12% increase in total GRT, climbing steadily from 12.36m GRT at the end of 2010 to 13.84m GRT as we enter 2012. With the new numbers, it is now among the top 15 ship registries in the world. This demonstrates significant growth in the larger types of vessels registering given that the register topped 10m GRT for the first time in its history in April 2009. The market segment which saw a rapid take-up rate, was the Asia Pacific region, particularly Japanese and Singapore-based corporations, who are now more perceptive of the flag's value. Dick Welsh, Director of the Isle of Man Ship Registry, said: "The growth in numbers shows that we are well placed to provide a more cost effective solution for registration without any compromise in quality or service for ship operators and owners." "Having just recovered from the global crisis of 2008, ship owners are bracing themselves for another rocky year in 2012
Turkey Eases International Flag Requirements

Panama Registry Up 9.1% in 1999

The remainder included passenger ships, fishing vessels, dredgers and tugs, the NMA said in a press release. Registered gross tonnage rose by 15.9 million tons to 126.9 million tons in 1999, an increase of 14

Liberia: Time for Openness on Ship Registries
THE Liberian Registry says it is time to put an end to the outdated thinking which results in all open registers, irrespective of their safety record, being referred to pejoratively as 'flags of convenience.'

Cyprus Financial Crisis: Effect on Shipping Interests
Cypriot Transport Minister, Tasos Mitsopoulos, states the nation's shipping registry will not be affected by turmoil in banking sector.

Despite Mitsopoulos's assurances, many shipping companies' bank deposits in Cyprus are expected to be heavily impacted by the banking sector developments

Juliet Macur
Juliet Macur has been a Sports of the Times columnist for The New York Times since October 2013. She has covered the Olympics and Olympic sports, doping and legal issues since 2004.
She has written features on a variety of other subjects, including coyote hunting in Oklahoma, former Yankee owner George Steinbrenner's fear of mortality and the plight of N.F.L. quarterback Michael Vick's pit bulls that were deemed unadoptable.
Her projects include a series called "Countdown to Beijing," which examined the sports machine in China as that country geared up to host the 2008 Summer Olympics, and another called "In Two Arenas," which looked at the Iraq war's effect on athletes.
Before joining the Times in 2004, Ms. Macur worked as a project reporter for the Dallas Morning News, where she had the unenviable job of spending one entire season writing exclusively about then Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells. Before that, she covered the Jacksonville Jaguars, the Olympics and motorsports for the Orlando Sentinel.
Ms. Macur's work has received honors from the National Press Club, the Associated Press Sports Editors, the Society of Professional Journalists and the New York Press Club. Her work has twice been anthologized in the Best American Sports Writing series.
The daughter of Polish immigrants who came to the United States as refugees after World War II, Ms. Macur grew up in Bridgewater, N.J. She was the captain of the Columbia University rowing team while at Barnard College and received her bachelor's degree in 1992. After college, she was a competitive rower for the New York Athletic Club. In 1997, she graduated with honors from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism.

If I set overflow-x:hidden on the body/html tags, my background image will not scroll, it acts as if it's fixed.
Can anyone explain why this happens??
Because you are telling the viewport not to show anything beyond what it already is. In effect you are freezing the initial window…if it can't scroll the background doesn't need to move.
So even if it's overflow-x:hidden, if you are still able to scroll vertically (y-axis), the background is told to stay put?
Weird, but thanks for the insight.
I didn't realise that your background extended downwards.
Do you have a link we can look at?
I will see if I can set up a smaller test-case because I am very curious of this behavior.

I removed the front plate and bellows last night. The leather was incredibly thin and it did not seem to have an inner layer. Mine was torn in many places. I will have to reassemble the pieces to make a pattern.
Another possible source for an inner layer is to use a piece of the packaging from sheet film. It is the light proof black plastic envelope that is inside the double box. It is shiny but it won't have an effect due to the inner horn restricting the incoming light to a narrow strip of the film.
Whatever is used will have to be very thin and flexible so as not to restrict the movement of the lens.

Seven million people worldwide suffer from Parkinson's, and doctors, researchers, and patients continue to hunt for a cure. In Brain Storms, the award-winning journalist Jon Palfreman tells their story, a story that became his own when he was diagnosed with the debilitating illness.
"Riveting tale of the quest to cure a difficult disease"
Brimming with fascinating historical details and modern medical wonders, this important audiobook is a fascinating glimpse into the struggles and "eureka!" moments that people outside of the medical profession rarely see. Written with Dr. Mukherjee's signature eloquence and passionate prose, The Laws of Medicine is a critical book not just for those in the medical profession but for everyone who is moved to better understand how their health and well-being are being treated.
An illuminating look at the surprising upside of ambiguity - and how, properly harnessed, it can inspire learning, creativity, even empathy. Life today feels more overwhelming and chaotic than ever. Whether it's a confounding work problem or a faltering relationship or an unclear medical diagnosis, we face constant uncertainty. And we're continually bombarded with information, much of it contradictory.
Our era of professional and familial pressures, constant connection, and a renewed debate on "having it all" presents unprecedented challenges to contemporary women.

From New York Times best-selling author, Emmy award-winning broadcast journalist, and leading Alzheimer's advocate Meryl Comer comes a profoundly intimate account of her husband's battle with Alzheimer's disease, one of today's most pressing - and least understood - health epidemics.

Janisse Ray grew up in a junkyard along US Highway 1, hidden from Florida-bound vacationers by the hedge at the edge of the road and by hulks of old cars and stacks of blown-out tires.

Turn to Science News for the latest coverage of biology, astronomy, the physical sciences, behavioral sciences, math and computers, chemistry, and earth science. This 75-year-old publication is known for its sharp writing and up-to-date coverage of the latest scientific research. Since its debut in 1922, Science News has been committed to providing reports on scientific and technical developments that the layman would find interesting and easy to digest.
Roberts' model, called quantum space theory, has been praised for how it offers an intuitively accessible picture of 11 dimensions and for powerfully extending the insight of general relativity, eloquently translating the four forces into unique kinds of geometric distortions while offering us access to the underlying deterministic dynamics that give rise to quantum mechanics. That remarkably simple picture explains the mysteries of modern physics in a way that's fully commensurate with Einstein's Intuition.
Surviving AI is a concise, easy guide to what's coming, taking you through technological unemployment (the economic singularity) and the possible creation of a superintelligence (the technological singularity).

In Furiously Happy, #1 New York Times bestselling author Jenny Lawson explores her lifelong battle with mental illness. A hysterical, ridiculous book about crippling depression and anxiety? That sounds like a terrible idea. But terrible ideas are what Jenny does best.
"MANY laugh out loud in my work cubical moments!"
At its core, The Power of Habit contains an exhilarating argument: The key to exercising regularly, losing weight, raising exceptional children, becoming more productive, building revolutionary companies and social movements, and achieving success is understanding how habits work. Habits aren't destiny. As Charles Duhigg shows, by harnessing this new science, we can transform our businesses, our communities, and our lives.
"Nice! A guide on how to change"
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a well-tested collection of practical techniques for managing moods and modifying undesirable behaviors through self-awareness, critical analysis, and goal-oriented change. CBT illuminates the links between thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and physical health and uses those connections to develop concrete plans for self-improvement. In 24 engaging half-hour lectures, you'll build a robust and effective self-improvement toolkit with the expert guidance of Professor Satterfield of the University of California, San Francisco.
"Total waste of time"
Richard Dawkins' brilliant reformulation of the theory of natural selection has the rare distinction of having provoked as much excitement and interest outside the scientific community as within it. His theories have helped change the whole nature of the study of social biology, and have forced thousands to rethink their beliefs about life.
"Better than print!"
The guru to the gurus at last shares his knowledge with the rest of us. Nobel laureate Daniel Kahneman's seminal studies in behavioral psychology, behavioral economics, and happiness studies have influenced numerous other authors, including Steven Pinker and Malcolm Gladwell. In Thinking, Fast and Slow, Kahneman at last offers his own, first book for the general public. It is a lucid and enlightening summary of his life's work. It will change the way you think about thinking. Two systems drive the way we think and make choices, Kahneman explains....
"Difficult Listen, but Probably a Great Read"
In Being Mortal, bestselling author Atul Gawande tackles the hardest challenge of his profession: how medicine can not only improve life but also the process of its ending. Medicine has triumphed in modern times, transforming birth, injury, and infectious disease from harrowing to manageable. But in the inevitable condition of aging and death, the goals of medicine seem too frequently to run counter to the interest of the human spirit.
"A Walk through the Valley of the Shadow"
Bill Bryson has been an enormously popular author both for his travel books and for his books on the English language. Now, this beloved comic genius turns his attention to science. Although he doesn't know anything about the subject (at first), he is eager to learn, and takes information that he gets from the world's leading experts and explains it to us in a way that makes it exciting and relevant.
"Very informative, fun to listen to"
Everyone would benefit from seeing further into the future, whether buying stocks, crafting policy, launching a new product, or simply planning the week's meals. Unfortunately, people tend to be terrible forecasters. As Wharton professor Philip Tetlock showed in a landmark 2005 study, even experts' predictions are only slightly better than chance. However, an important and underreported conclusion of that study was that some experts do have real foresight.
"Good book but for a different reason"
At least one-third of the people we know are introverts. They are the ones who prefer listening to speaking, reading to partying; who innovate and create but dislike self-promotion; who favor working on their own over brainstorming in teams. Although they are often labeled "quiet," it is to introverts that we owe many of the great contributions to society--from van Gogh's sunflowers to the invention of the personal computer.
"Thought provoking and Uplifting.... A++++++++!!!!!"
Widely used in classes, as well as sold to people operating successfully in the business world, the eagerly awaited revision of Influence reminds the listener of the power of persuasion. Cialdini organizes compliance techniques into six categories based on psychological principles that direct human behavior: reciprocation, consistency, social proof, liking, authority, and scarcity.
"This book will change the way you see the world."
In The Tipping Point, New Yorker writer Malcolm Gladwell looks at why major changes in society happen suddenly and unexpectedly. Just as a single sick person can start an epidemic of the flu, so too can a few fare-beaters and graffiti artists fuel a subway crime wave, or a satisfied customer fill the empty tables of a new restaurant. These are social epidemics, and the moment when they take off, when they reach their critical mass, is the Tipping Point.
"Marketing has a lot to learn from this book"
No subject is bigger than reality itself, and nothing is more challenging to understand, since what counts as reality is undergoing continual revision and has been for centuries. The quest to pin down what's real and what's illusory is both philosophical and scientific, a metaphysical search for ultimate reality that goes back to the ancient Greeks. For the last 400 years, this search has been increasingly guided by scientists, who create theories and test them in order to define and redefine reality.
"Take this course instead of first year in college"
Why we think it's a great listen: You thought he was a stodgy scientist with funny hair, but Isaacson and Hermann reveal an eloquent, intense, and selfless human being who not only shaped science with his theories, but politics and world events in the 20th century as well. Based on the newly released personal letters of Albert Einstein, Walter Isaacson explores how an imaginative, impertinent patent clerk became the mind reader of the creator of the cosmos.
"Surprise: Two books in one!"
One hundred thousand years ago, at least six human species inhabited the Earth. Today there is just one. Us. Homo sapiens. How did our species succeed in the battle for dominance? Why did our foraging ancestors come together to create cities and kingdoms? How did we come to believe in gods, nations, and human rights; to trust money, books, and laws; and to be enslaved by bureaucracy, timetables, and consumerism?
"Sums it up nicely"
In a series of illuminating, often surprising experiments, MIT behavioral economist Dan Ariely refutes the common assumption that we behave in fundamentally rational ways. Blending everyday experience with groundbreaking research, Ariely explains how expectations, emotions, social norms, and other invisible, seemingly illogical forces skew our reasoning abilities.
"Well researched, well written, & well read"
In The Body Keeps the Score, Bessel van der Kolk transforms our understanding of traumatic stress, revealing how it literally rearranges the brain's wiring - specifically areas dedicated to pleasure, engagement, control, and trust. He shows how these areas can be reactivated through innovative treatments including neuro feedback, mindfulness techniques, play, yoga, and other therapies.
"Destined to be a classic"
What did Charles Darwin, middling schoolboy and underachieving second son, do to become one of the earliest and greatest naturalists the world has known? What were the similar choices made by Mozart and by Caesar Rodriguez, the U.S. Air Force's last ace fighter pilot? In Mastery, Robert Greene's fifth book, he mines the biographies of great historical figures for clues about gaining control over our own lives and destinies. Picking up where The 48 Laws of Power left off, Greene culls years of research and original interviews to blend historical anecdote and psychological insight, distilling the universal ingredients of the world's masters.
"Mastery is both a goal and a destination..."
In David and Goliath, Malcolm Gladwell challenges how we think about obstacles and disadvantages, offering a new interpretation of what it means to be discriminated against, or cope with a disability, or lose a parent, or attend a mediocre school, or suffer from any number of other apparent setbacks. Gladwell begins with the real story of what happened between the giant and the shepherd boy those many years ago.
"The Art of (Unconventional) War"
In his landmark best seller The Tipping Point, Malcolm Gladwell redefined how we understand the world around us. Now, in Blink, he revolutionizes the way we understand the world within. Blink is a book about how we think without thinking, about choices that seem to be made in an instant, in the blink of an eye, that actually aren't as simple as they seem. Why are some people brilliant decision makers, while others are consistently inept?
"Buy it now! Or not.. Trust your instincts."
Debilitating brain disorders are on the rise - from children diagnosed with autism and ADHD to adults developing dementia at younger ages than ever before. But a medical revolution is underway that can solve this problem: Astonishing new research is revealing that the health of your brain is, to an extraordinary degree, dictated by the state of your microbiome - the vast population of organisms that live in your body and outnumber your own cells 10 to one.
"The Gut--Your Second Brain--Who Knew!"
Superintelligence asks the questions: What happens when machines surpass humans in general intelligence? Will artificial agents save or destroy us? Nick Bostrom lays the foundation for understanding the future of humanity and intelligent life. The human brain has some capabilities that the brains of other animals lack. It is to these distinctive capabilities that our species owes its dominant position. If machine brains surpassed human brains in general intelligence, then this new superintelligence could become extremely powerful - possibly beyond our control.
"Colossus: The Forbin Project is coming"
Oliver Sacks' The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat tells the stories of individuals afflicted with fantastic perceptual and intellectual aberrations: patients who have lost their memories and with them the greater part of their pasts; who are no longer able to recognize people and common objects; who are stricken with violent tics and grimaces or who shout involuntary obscenities; whose limbs have become alien; who have been dismissed as retarded yet are gifted with uncanny artistic or mathematical talents.
"A Clinician's eYe, but a Poet's HEART"
Russ Harris offers a surprising solution to low self-confidence, shyness, and insecurity: Rather than trying to "get over" our fears, he says, the secret is to form a new and wiser relationship with them. Paradoxically, it's only when we stop struggling against our fearfulness that we begin to find lasting freedom from it.
"Some great points, and some narrow thinking."
Since Darwin's day, we've been told that sexual monogamy comes naturally to our species. Mainstream science - as well as religious and cultural institutions - has maintained that men and women evolved in families in which a man's possessions and protection were exchanged for a woman's fertility and fidelity. But this narrative is collapsing....
"Strawmen and Ad Hominems"
Google is not only the number one search engine in the world, it is also the number one website in the world. Only five percent of site visitors search past the first page of Google, so if you're not in those top 10 results, you are essentially invisible. Winning the Game of Googleopoly is the ultimate roadmap to Page One Domination. The POD strategy is what gets you on that super-critical first page of Google results by increasing your page views.
From elicitation, pretexting, influence and manipulation all aspects of social engineering are picked apart, discussed and explained by using real world examples, personal experience and the Science & Technology behind them to unraveled the mystery in social engineering. Kevin Mitnick - one of the most famous social engineers in the world - popularized the term social engineering. He explained that it is much easier to trick someone into revealing a password than to exert the effort of hacking.
"Social Engineering Savvy"
By synthesizing current research in the social sciences, Schwartz makes the counterintuitive case that eliminating choices can greatly reduce the stress, anxiety, and busyness of our lives. He offers eleven practical steps on how to limit choices to a manageable number, have the discipline to focus on the important ones and ignore the rest, and ultimately derive greater satisfaction from the choices you have to make.
"The Tyranny of Pop Economics"
How Dogs Love Us answers the age-old question of dog lovers everywhere and offers profound new evidence that dogs should be treated as we would treat our best human friends: with love, respect, and appreciation for their social and emotional intelligence.
"A must for all animal lovers"
Few companies in history have ever been as successful and as admired as Google, the company that has transformed the Internet and become an indispensable part of our lives. How has Google done it? Veteran technology reporter Steven Levy was granted unprecedented access to the company, and in this revelatory book he takes listeners inside Google headquarters - the Googleplex - to explain how Google works.
"Clever, honest, and even inspiring"
The Blind Watchmaker, knowledgably narrated by author Richard Dawkins, is as prescient and timely a book as ever. The watchmaker belongs to the 18th-century theologian William Paley, who argued that just as a watch is too complicated and functional to have sprung into existence by accident, so too must all living things, with their far greater complexity, be purposefully designed. Charles Darwin's brilliant discovery challenged the creationist arguments; but only Richard Dawkins could have written this elegant riposte.
"Challenging textbook more than an enjoyable listen"
Lawyers. Accountants. Software Engineers. That what Mom and Dad encouraged us to become. They were wrong. Gone is the age of "left-brain" dominance. The future belongs to a different kind of person with a different kind of mind: designers, inventors, teachers, storytellers - creative and emphatic "right-brain" thinkers whose abilities mark the fault line between who gets ahead and who doesn't.
"should have listened to Joseph"
With his signature wit and thought-provoking insights, Neil deGrasse Tyson - one of our foremost thinkers on all things space - illuminates the past, present, and future of space exploration and brilliantly reminds us why NASA matters now as much as ever. As Tyson reveals, exploring the space frontier can profoundly enrich many aspects of our daily lives, from education systems and the economy to national security and morale.
"The least helpful review of Space Chronicles."
"Houston, we've had a problem here." On the evening of April 13, 1970, the three astronauts aboard Apollo 13 were just hours from the third lunar landing in history. But as they soared through space, two hundred thousand miles from earth, an explosion badly damaged their spacecraft. With compromised engines and failing life-support systems, the crew was in incomparably grave danger.
"Very technical"
Batman is one of the most compelling and enduring characters to come from the Golden Age of Comics, and interest in his story has only increased through countless incarnations since his first appearance in Detective Comics #27 in 1939. Why does this superhero without superpowers fascinate us? What does that fascination say about us? Batman and Psychology explores these and other intriguing questions about the masked vigilante, including: Does Batman have PTSD? Why does he fight crime? Why as a vigilante? Why the mask, the bat, and the underage partner?
"Fun, Informative and Highly Recommended"
To these seven narratives of neurological disorder Dr. Sacks brings the same humanity, poetic observation, and infectious sense of wonder that are apparent in his bestsellers Awakenings and The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat. These men, women, and one extraordinary child emerge as brilliantly adaptive personalities, whose conditions have not so much debilitated them as ushered them into another reality.
We live in a world of seeds. From our morning toast to the cotton in our clothes, they are quite literally the stuff and staff of life, supporting diets, economies, and civilizations around the globe. Just as the search for nutmeg and the humble peppercorn drove the Age of Discovery, so did coffee beans help fuel the Enlightenment and cottonseed help spark the Industrial Revolution. And from the fall of Rome to the Arab Spring, the fate of nations continues to hinge on the seeds of a Middle Eastern grass known as wheat.
In this thrilling journey into the mysteries of our cosmos, best-selling author Michio Kaku takes us on a dizzying ride to explore black holes and time machines, multidimensional space and, most tantalizing of all, the possibility that parallel universes may lay alongside our own.
"Don't be afraid"

Chinese porcelain dish showing immortals
Jingdezhen, Jiangxi province
Qing dynasty, about AD 1662–1683

Shoulao is identified by his extended cranium, long beard and emblems of long-life such as the deer beside him.
These deities are a mythical group of figures, some based on historical characters, who perform superhuman feats. Each has his or her attributes and associated stories. Several play musical instruments including the flute and castanets.

It looks like a country style house. I'm recently planning to buy a new home. My family don't want to live in a quite place. They would prefer a place with excitement and noise. I have saw the sims urban oasis,a new launch condo at sims drive. I think this is the best place to live!
