Surviving Motherhood One Mess at a Time
Have you ever thought about freezer meal planning but been hesitant since it takes so much time and effort?
A meal planning party is a great way to take some of the burden off of yourself and also reap the benefits. Gathering with friends or family to build quality meal plans that everyone will enjoy is a fun way to spend an afternoon, and can give everyone amazing meals to share and enjoy.
Is your couch looking a bit dingy?
With 6 kids in my house, I definitely understand. My family recently survived an out-of-state move and while we were (mostly) none the worse for wear the same couldn't be said of my couches.
We did a great job of protecting our furniture in the moving truck. Nothing broke. Unfortunately, to protect things we used moving blankets and they are not the cleanest things to be wrapping around fabric couches.
When we unloaded our couches all the kid-marks that were there before our move were combined with dust and dirt from the actual move making our couches look a bit sad.
I wanted to freshen everything up so that would could get a clean start in our new home.

I installed Swami from the Software Center but when I try to open it, nothing happens. What's going on here?
Like many MIDI applications, Swami requires the JACK Audio Connection Kit to be installed and running in order to operate.
Installing and configuring JACK is beyond the scope of this question. A good place to start learning about it is the documentation for Ubuntu Studio.

Let's Dial Down Some (Maybe) Ovulation Freakouts
"AND OMFG I WAS OVULATING, TOO!!!!!!!" This sentence is becoming familiar to us.
More young people seem to be developing some new knowledge about fertility cycles. I think that's great. Well, kind of great. Thing is, lots of the information you're getting, or think you have, is often dodgy, only half the picture, or just flat-out wrong.
You're Not Pregnant. Why Do You Think You Are?
Decoding Sex in the Media: Why the Media Should Leave Kate Middleton's Baby Bump (And Everyone Else's) Alone
The implicit message behind OK!'s headline is clear: a new mother's first concern should be her appearance.
This woman's body just produced a tiny, squirming human being—we should celebrate it for this incredible feat! Instead, the media chooses to focus on presumed "flaws" of a person's body post-pregnancy, encouraging Kate—and women like her—to return (and immediately: do not pass go, do not collect $200) to the body she inhabited before she gave birth.
These types of headlines illustrate a disheartening phenomenon: the pervasive belief that a woman's physical attractiveness (a trait dictated by an increasingly narrow beauty ideal) determines her value.
His Religious Beliefs Are No Condoms, But I Need Them. What Do I Do?
The guy I'm sleeping with really wants to have PIV sex with me, but he won't wear a condom because he's Roman Catholic. Everything else we've done has been amazing and I really want to do it, but I'm terrified of getting pregnant and I've already had a scare that I haven't told him about. I'm on the pill now, but I know that it isn't 100% effective....
Did abortion make me unable to orgasm?
I had to go through an abortion at the age of 18 of a 20 week fetus. I had experienced orgasm just once in my life before the abortion. I have not experienced orgasm after my abortion through any sexual activity or masturbation. Have the abortion made me unorgasmic?...
Obtaining Abortion When You Need Funding and a Judicial Bypass
I am 16 years old and already have a 7 month old baby. My son has a lot of health problems, he was born with a lung disease and has holes in his heart. I recently found out I was pregnant again and I'm not for sure how to go about it. I've only told one person and that's my older sister....
Who's Afraid of Sperm Cells?
Judging from the number of users I see experiencing pregnancy scares on the Scarleteen message boards, particularly from situations besides genital intercourse, you'd think sperm cells were some magical weapon of mass fertilization, powerfully wiggling their way through clothes/towels/fabric, and leaping off hands to impregnate every person around them within a 50 mile radius. Look out for scary sperm! Get outta the way! They're coming right for you! (pun intended)
As a volunteer for Scarleteen, I'm here to tell you none of this is physically possible. It just isn't. As a former laboratory technician at a fertility clinic, having worked directly with sperm and semen (and without having ever gotten pregnant doing so, no less!), I want to tell you why.
SHine SA (Sexual Health Information Networking & Education South Australia)
How do you avoid getting pregnant after giving a handjob or oral sex?
Assuming you are a woman, (and if you are not please ask one to answer this) what did you do when you were a teen to avoid getting pregnant after giving a handjob or giving oral?...

Of Munchkins and George Hamilton
Don't try to find street parking in front of the Knitting Factory between around 10 a.m. and noon today. For one thing, George Hamilton is getting his Walk of Fame star at 7021 Hollywood Boulevard as a 70th birthday present. For another, tough-guy actor James Caan is scheduled to speak at the tourist-magnet event, and won't take kindly to any attempts to assert your parking rights when there are cameras present.
A little east of here, in the forecourt of Grauman's Chinese Theater, at 1 p.m., L.A. City Councilmen Tom LaBonge and Eric Garcetti will join surviving Munchkin Jerry Maren in a news conference celebrating another 70th birthday -- the anniversary of The Wizard of Oz's release. The three may be jumping the gun a bit, as IMdB says the film premiered on August 25, 1939, but their timing may make sense, given news that the Chinese could be up for sale soon. Come to think of it, the Knitting Factory is also scheduled to close its doors, at the end of October.

As noted by SFist, most of the rules are obvious. Don't litter, bring in your dishes, watch out for cars. The most difficult rule for patrons to follow will undoubtedly be the ban on "talking about annoying hipster topics." "PLEASE BE RESPECTFUL OF OUR CALEDONIA NEIGHBORS BY: …not talking about annoying hipster topics, or who you fucked last night. You shouldn't do that anyhow, but our neighbors actually can hear you." The list ends with the sign-off "Mucho Smoocho" which seems itself like a sort of ironic (and therefore hipster?) valediction.

Bosnian-Herzegovinian Film Festival
2013 logo
|New York City, United States
|Directed by
|Academy of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Voice of Bosnia and Herzegovina
The Bosnian-Herzegovinian Film Festival (BHFF) is an annual event founded in 2003 and held in New York and since 2007 showcased at the Tribeca Cinemas Theatres. This Festival showcases the best of the Bosnian cinematography and also provides a platform for the international exposure for emerging Bosnian filmmakers. It showcases the best of the resurgent film production in Bosnia since the recent war, bringing the simplicity, soulfulness and the perennial dark humor of the Bosnian film to the American audiences. In addition to showcasing the Bosnian production films the festival also includes in their program films by other producers and directors that deal with historical, socio-political and cultural issues of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Bosnian-Herzegovinian Film Festival is organized by not-for-profit organizations the Voice of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Inc. and the Academy of Bosnia and Herzegovina Inc.
On October 24, 2003, director Benjamin Filipović, a winner of the Grand Prix of Europe for Best Short Film and a former President of the Association of Filmmakers of Bosnia and Herzegovina, officially opened the first festival at the Two Boots Pioneer Theatre in East Village, one of New York's cultural hubs . In its founding year the festival showcased 5 film titles.
The festival also highlighted "Aftermath," a photography exhibit by artist Sara Terry. Among other guests of the first BHFF was the lead female role of Kuduz, actress Snežana Bogdanović.
Following its debut, the BHFF moved to larger premises at the Anthology Film Archives, still maintaining its presence in the East Village. Film director Džemal Šabić opened the second annual Bosnian-Herzegovinian Film Festival on April 29, 2005. There were 10 film titles screened at the second BHFF.
Among festival guests were young Bosnian filmmakers and artists Sabina Vajrača, Aida Šehović and Nebojša Šerić Shoba, as well as the director of the Sarajevo Film Festival, Mirsad Purivatra, and the former Bosnian Ambassador to the United Nations, Mirza Kušljugić.
This critical second annual event of Bosnian-Herzegovinian film set the pace for the future BHFF, making the festival much awaited tradition among its audience.
BHFF is a competition based film festival and it awards The Golden Apple award in several categories to eligible films screened at each BHFF.

Children's Books from Other Countriesby Carl M. Tomlinson
View All Available Formats & Editions
Pub. Date: 01/15/1998
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, Inc.
Every child is entranced by the magic of story, regardless of national boundaries. Many of the most memorable childhood stories have their origins in other countries. Exposing children to this multi-national body of literature introduces them to the great diversity of people and cultures that populate the world at a young age, enabling them to become more
Every child is entranced by the magic of story, regardless of national boundaries. Many of the most memorable childhood stories have their origins in other countries. Exposing children to this multi-national body of literature introduces them to the great diversity of people and cultures that populate the world at a young age, enabling them to become more thoughtful and generous individuals. Children's Books from Other Countries is a complete and current guide to international children's literature. The concept of a bibliography of international children's literature is not new. In the past, many books have accomplished this task. The last two decades, however, have not yet produced a current reference source devoted to international children's books. Children's Books from Other Countries wonderfully rectifies this lack of attention. An introductory essay provides an overview of the field including a discussion on the rationale of sharing international books with children, a brief history of the children's literature movement, related books and awards, and basic information about the International Board on Books for Young People (IBBY) and its American branch, the United States Board on Books for Young People (USBBY). An annotated bibliography contains over 700 titles from 29 different countries printed between 1950 and 1996. All titles are available in English; many have been translated and others have originated in other English-speaking countries. The titles are organized by genre and have been selected for their high quality. They are primarily targeted for children ages 0-14, although a few outstanding young adult titles are included. Winners of the Mildred Batchelder Award and the Hans Christian Andersen Medal are listed in the appendix. Indexes include Author-Title Index, Country of Origin Index, and Subject Index. Affordable and readable, this timely resource is certainly a "must" for librarians and teachers, and other professionals working with children. Sponsored by the United State

An obesity epidemic threatens to wipe out other improvements in children's health and safety over the past three decades, a new report says.
"Childhood obesity has risen to a point that it can be considered a modern day epidemic," said the report by Duke University researchers released Wednesday.
About 15.6 percent of American children between 12 and 19 were obese in 2002, up from 6.1 percent in 1974, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The report also looked at children's well-being in several other categories, including violent crime and illegal drug use. It was commissioned by the Foundation for Child Development, which backs increased support for children.
The report noted that 44.4 of every 1,000 people between the ages of 12 and 15 were likely to be victims of violent crime in 2002, down from 77.5 per 1,000 in 1974, according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics. And 39.3 percent of 12th graders in 2003 told University of Michigan researchers that they used illegal drugs in the past year, down from 53.8 percent in 1978.
"Overall, children and youths are faring better today than ever before," the report said.
One of the report authors, Duke University sociologist Kenneth Land, said children should be faring even better.
"Kids are doing better, but they are not going nearly as well as they should given this country's advances in education, health and social programs," Land said. "As parents, and as a country, we ought to be doing better by our children."
Of concern is that the advances in children's well-being could be reversed if the economy keeps hemorrhaging jobs. More than 2.2 million jobs have been lost during the Bush administration.
"It may now be time for policy-makers to consider the impact of macroeconomic policies not just on jobs or interest rates but on children as well," said Ruby Takanishi, president of the Foundation for Child Development, based in New York City.

Posted on 01/09/2013 2:32:13 PM PST by Slings and Arrows
A simple fast food order turned into a prolonged police standoff in Wichita, KS, this morning.
According to reports, a couple went through the McDonalds drive-thru around 7:30 a.m. today. After pulling away from the window, they realized their order was wrong.
But instead of pulling into the parking lot and going into the restaurant, they pulled back into the drive-thru and attempted to cut off another vehicle in line.
This led to a verbal altercation between people in both vehicles. The driver of the car with the mixed-up order allegedly threw a crowbar at the other car. Her passenger then got out of their vehicle with a shotgun and fired once. The Wichita Eagle reports that the shot was fired into the drivers side door of the car they had cut off, while KAKE-TV says that the shot was fired into the air.
Regardless, it appears that no one in the other car was injured.
Police tracked the male suspect the one with the shotgun a house and began blocking off local streets while they await a search warrant.
UPDATE: According to this Tweet from KAKE reporter Jared Cerullo, around 3:00 p.m. ET, police finally arrested the suspect who had been holed up inside a house since this mornings incident.
If you complain to corporate on their online form, they will send you some really really good coupons
All that for a mixed-up friggin' Happy Meal? (or whatever they're called) Good Lord!
No doubt.
According to reports, a couple went through the McDonalds drive-thru around 7:30 a.m. today. After pulling away from the window, they realized their order was wrong.
Well, DUH!
WHO pulls away from the window at McDonalds before checking their order?
Did they not have a cell phone? Usually they call 911 first when a fast food place runs of out of McNuggets or screws up a order.
They will get my Egg McMuffin away from me when they pry it from my cold dead hands!!!!!!!!
My brother had a friend who, as a teenager, smashed his fist through the McDonalds' drive through window because they got his order wrong. He had some "anger management" issues. It made the paper and he got probation and fine. Some people just don't know how to calmly deal with mistakes in a manner that doesn't get them arrested or killed.
Some variety of Mennonite, I'm guessing.
I actually feel sorry for the male suspect. First McDonalds screws up his breakfast order.
Then his day gets a whole lot worse. MUCH worse.
Not very happy, I'd say.
Dunno, let's ask an expert.
Am I?
Maybe they forgot to put the little child's toy, inside? (Crackerjack prize days in the 50s... LOL)
And you don't even need a shotgun?
Let be honest, you almost need CSI to tell one "food" item from another at McD's
I guess when that family says "I get shotgun" as they head to the car, they really mean it
Nobody ever told her "tit for tat" is just an expression.
My apologies to the Amish. In any case, I don't think this fellow will be a great loss to society.
Now if you were to combine a boomerang with a crowbar...
Yes, he's a real gent, isn't he? No doubt he is a frequent law enforcement consumer.
WOW! How many dogs had to die? With all those cop toys and testosterone flying around, somebody had to shoot a dog?
Who called in the Marines?
At least he'll get a chance to add to his prison tattoos.
I like it, boomerbar or a crowrang.
Get some late night infomercials going ...........Get your Boomerbar for only $19.99.......BUT WAIT! We'll include a free Crowrang for FREE!!
I'll bet it was over Chicken McNuggets. People who eat them are violent.
Well, as a famous American once said, "You can get more with a smile and a gun than you can with just a smile." Al Capone.
Anyone want to start a betting pool as to when the libs will get hold of this and use it ammo (no pun intended) for their attempts to increase gun control?
Billy Mays, you lived too soon.
Should be "use it as ammo"
Since there was no actual gunplay for the police to be involved in, they went around the neighborhoos and shot all of the dogs they could find.
I don't see that happening - no pool of blood to dance in.
The stereotype of losers!
"WHO pulls away from the window at McDonalds before checking their order?"
My Brother :-)
They recently opened a brand new McDonalds right near our neighborhood, only a couple minutes drive away. My brother is a regular at McDonalds and before this new one opened, he had a much longer drive to the other ones, about 15 minutes away.
Not too long ago he came home from this new McDonalds, telling me that he bought me a big mac, but I told him that there was no big mac in the bag. He then complained that hes been to the drive through of this new McDonalds 10 times before and ALL ten times they got his order wrong. I said to him, "maybe you ought to check your order before you drive away". And he replied, "yeah, I'll do that from now on".
"Nice" set of tats on the perps (She has a bunch, too. Look closely if you can. That isn't a necklace). What is it with ink these days? I'm starting to think tats make you Honorary Amish. But I know and love friends that have them so I don't know.
The last time I went to a McDonalds I ordered the same thing I always do. Two McDoubles (dollar menu) and a small coke. Well they repeated back to me two double cheese burgers (non-dollar menu) and a small coke. Well, I didn't realize the mistake until I was rolling away from the screen. I tried to fix it at the window with the cashier. She said, "No, you said, two double cheeseburgers, and that is what your getting." At this point I didn't pay yet, so I simply just drove away. I felt bad, but what was I supposed to do, argue? This was about a year ago, never went back.
Hopefully to Ruths Chriss
Just local cops pretending to be the big boys.
LOL. I'll have to send this to our daughter and SIL. They moved to Wichita last year. He. He.
Pulling a shotgun and shooting at another car?
Everybody knows you drive back to the window and pull the moron who got your order wrong out of the window by the shirt collar, then stomp him in the ribs a few times with some good Carolina engineer boots.
Why are all these police officers wearing military combat gear? They are NOT military.
This sight pisses me off. It speaks volumes about where we're headed as a (formerly) free nation.
The Mickey D's around here used to ask you to pull away from the window and when your order was complete - they'd bring it out to you.
I would politely decline. "No Thanks." The pimple face would stare at me blankly and go get the manager. The manager would ask me to move up and they would bring out the order. Again I would say; "No thanks." He'd ask why and I'd explain.
One time a crew cheif wasn't buying it. "We DO NOT get get the orders wrong! Move up!" I asked him what I'd ordered. He read it back to me. He got it wrong. "SEE!!!" I gave him what for. For sure.
That was then. Nowadays? They don't ask you to pull up any more. And they are much better at getting the right order out on time.
What would happen if an innocent person(male or female) dressed in similar clothes, no weapons, and just strolled through a shopping mall or car dealership?
I'll bet the Feds/Blues would find some excuse to detain(abuse) that person, search(ransack) his home and kill his dog(s)!
"That light at the end of the tunnel is a speeding train"!
I bet they wish now that they'd have just ordered a pizza delivery to the trailer.

Move Your iTunes Library
TMO Quick Tip - Move Your iTunes Library
by , 7:30 AM EST, November 27th, 2006
If your iTunes library has grown to the point that it's time to move it to a different hard drive instead of keeping it in your Home directory, you don't need to worry about tracking down hidden linking files or typing cryptic Unix commands. iTunes 7 takes care of the dirty work for you, and there are only a couple of steps you need to follow.
- If iTunes is running, be sure to quit it.
- Now start by copying your iTunes music library to the hard drive you want it to live on. You only need to move the iTunes Music folder that's in Users/your home directory/Music/iTunes.
- After your music library finishes copying to its new location, launch iTunes and choose iTunes > Preferences.
- Click Advanced, and then select the General tab.
- Click the Change button next to iTunes Music folder location, and navigate to the new location of your music library. After you finish selecting your music library folder, click the OK button to close the Preferences window.
Only move the iTunes Music directory.
Select the new location for your music folder in the iTunes Advanced preferences.
Once iTunes knows where your new music library location is, it's okay to delete the original iTunes Music folder from your hard drive - just be sure you are deleting the original folder, and not the one you just selected in the iTunes preferences.
I moved my iTunes library off of my PowerBook's hard drive and to an external drive to free up space for projects and applications - it clocks in at about 21GB. That's paltry compared to some music libraries that take up far more storage space than a laptop's built-in hard drive can handle, and that's another good reason to move your tunes to a different drive.
The downside is that you can't listen to your ripped or downloaded music in iTunes if the drive with your iTunes Music directory isn't available. For example, when I travel, my music hard drive stays behind at the office, so I can't listen to music in iTunes. When I get back, I plug the drive in and my music is available again. Since I travel with an iPod, that's not a big deal for me.
If you happen to add music to iTunes when your music library isn't available, you'll probably want to consolidate everything once your music drive is connected again. Check out this Quick Tip to see how.

Optimal GPU Overclocking with GIGABYTE's Ultimate Super Overclock Series
Optimal GPU Overclocking with GIGABYTE's Ultimate Super Overclock Series
Premium Graphics Card with GPU Gauntlet Sorting and Ultra Durable VGA, GIGABYTE HD 5870 SOC Hot Launch at CeBIT
Taipei, Taiwan, 22nd February, 2010 - GIGABYTE, a leading manufacturer of motherboards and graphics cards, grandly introduces a powerful new addition to its product lineup: the Super Overclock Series. All of the GPUs in this new range of high-end graphics cards have been cherry-picked for top performance, efficiency and reliability. Utilizing GIGABYTE's innovative GPU Gauntlet Sorting process ensures that only premium GPU processors are used in these graphics cards. Coupled with Ultra Durable VGA boards, users can rest assured that the Super Overclock Series graphics cards won't let them down when they step onto the digital battleground.
GPU Gauntlet Sorting
First, GIGABYTE's database analysis system evaluates the GPU core engine, shader engine and memory. If a processor doesn't meet the pre-defined standard, it will not qualify for the Super Overclock Series.
In addition, GIGABYTE's proprietary testing toolkit allows engineers to inspect and select the GPUs with the highest frequency. This program operates for 30 minutes and provides important data on the maximum overclocking ability when compared to a stock GPU. Once the Super Overclock point has been determined, engineers will boost the frequency to offer the highest factory default clock setting in the market.
Next, each Super Overclock Series GPU faces the Graphics benchmarks, FurMark and 3DMark Vantage, to measure performance and stability under an intense graphics load. A GPU that passes this stage will perform at a lower temperature and fan speed compared to a standard GPU. By choosing the cream of the crop, GIGABYTE ensures rich rendering of intricate 3D scenes and realistic physical effects such as water, gas, steam, fire, etc for a lifelike gaming adventure.
Last but not least, engineers test the power switching and stability. The GPUs with the best power efficiency and lowest power consumption qualify for the Super Overclock Series. And GIGABYTE understands that premium graphics cards should not sound like a cement truck rolling down the freeway, so a large cooling fan provides for a quiet computing environment.
Thanks to Ultra Durable VGA 5 quality components, 2 oz copper PCB, first tier memory, Japanese solid capacitors, ferrite core chokes and low RDS (on) MOSFET, the Super Overclock Series provides for top performance in graphics benchmarking. These high-quality components promise consumers 5%~10% lower GPU temperatures, 10-30% higher overclocking capability, and switching power loss that is reduced by 10-30%.
GIGABYTE's innovative GPU Gauntlet Sorting process provides three main benefits:
Full-throttle Performance Tuning
Proprietary database analysis system helps engineers investigate GPU core, shader and memory.
Optimized Thermal Efficiency
With high-quality Gigabyte Ultra Durable VGA components, the processor selected by GPU Gauntlet Sorting boasts extra lower temperature by 5 to 10%. The guarantee fan speed at 1500 rpm in high-rated 3D and physics-accelerated games helps reduce noise for an absolutely quite environment.
Expert Power Switching
GPUs are examined and tested for the highest power efficiency and lowest power consumption using the FurMark and 3DMark Vantage benchmark. Taking GIGABYTE GTX 260 Super Overclock Series graphics card for example, it delivers a 25% increase in performance compared to a standard GTX 260 card. And a GIGABYTE GTX 260 Super Overclock Series card guarantees the same overclocking capability as a standard GTX 260 dual-fan video card, but with lower power consumption.
Built for OC Competition & Gaming Battle
Serious gamers require serious gear. That is why GIGABYTE has developed the Super Overclock Series. The Super Overclock Series is built for OC competition and gaming battle and has been heavily used in competition. The GIGABYTE Super Overclock Series has proven time and time again to be an amazing overclocking GPU, continually allowing users to break and set higher and higher new world records. The GIGABYTE graphics card world record ceiling has possibly been reached and setting a new 3DMark GPU world record with GIGABYTE Super Overclock Edition.
GIGABYTE creates a secret weapon, HD 5870 Super Overclock Edition, is built using ATI RadeonTM HD 5870 GPU which is based on 40nm process and advanced GDDR5 memory technology. The powerful new GPU provides for a host of innovative new features including Microsoft DirectX® 11, ATI Eyefinity Technology, and offer an incredibly immersive HD gaming experience and unrivaled performance.

Move over Gwyneth, Cameron Diaz is after your smug lifestyle guru crown! As she announces a new wellbeing book, FEMAIL takes a look at Cam's words of wisdom
Lifestyle guru: Cameron Diaz is to release a book of her health, fitness and wellbeing tips
Cameron Diaz is following in the footsteps of her famous friend Gwyneth Paltrow by reinventing herself as a lifestyle guru.
The actress, who will turn 40 this month, has secured a deal with Harper Collins to write a health and well-being guide that will include her diet and fitness tips.
A spokesperson for the publisher said Diaz aims to 'engage and empower' women with her advice.
The book will hit the shelves next year but if you can't wait that long, FEMAIL have pulled together the pearls of wisdom Cameron has previously shared in interviews...
During an appearance on Oprah, Cameron revealed her favourite recipe is 'savoury oatmeal' which she makes for breakfast. The meal is a twist on porridge - cooking oats with water, chicken broth, kale, leeks, shallots and any other green vegetable. She serves it with scrambled egg whites on the side.
Cameron said she does have to watch what she eats to stay in shape. 'I'm off the fried foods. I'm very thoughtful about what I eat. If you're gonna do heavy lifting, and you want to stay small, you have to watch what you eat. You have to give your body the right nutrients and really think about what's best for it,' she told Elle.
The actress has said she has to work hard to maintain her enviable toned arms and wash-board stomach. But she doesn't view her five-times a week workouts as a chore because for her, exercise is a way of life.
Bikini body: The actress keeps in shape by exercising regularly
'Exercise for me is like eating, sleeping, and breathing,' she told Harper's Bazaar. 'I'm consistent, and when I'm not consistent, it shows up on my body. I get really skinny, and I know it might sound like, "Well, good for you." But the body that people talk about is not me trying to stay slim, it's the one where I work hard to keep weight on me.'
The actress once admitted to Harper's Bazaar that she hasn't always made the right choices when it comes to Mr Right. 'Who doesn't like the bad boy, until you grow up and realize bad boys are not the way to go?' she said.
The ex factor: Her relationship with Justin Timberlake didn't last but the pair are still friends
In a separate interview with Cosmopolitan magazine, she admitted 'marriage hasn't been important to me,' and she's still single after high-profile failed relationships to stars including Jared Leto, Justin Timberlake and Alex Rodriguez. When it's been her partner's decision to end the relationship, she said: 'I don't call it dumped. I call it divine intervention.'
But the actress remains philosophical about her love life. 'I would rather have my heart broken a thousand times than never to love at all,' she said to In Style. 'I have so much love to give - I'm not empty of love, I'm full of love.'
Cameron once told Cosmo she doesn't think women should feel ashamed if they choose to remain childless.
''I think women are afraid to say that they don't want children because they're going to get shunned,' she said. 'But I think that's changing too now. I have more girlfriends who don't have kids than those that do.
'And honestly? We don't need any more kids. We have plenty of people on this planet.'
And while the actress hasn't ruled out having children herself yet, she told Vogue: 'You know how you have these moments of feeling dissatisfied and you think, "What would make my life better?".
'Well, I've yet to go, "Aha, that's it: a child!"'
Sex appeal: Cameron said her clothes 'revolve around her breasts', like this Victoria Beckham designed dress
As she prepares to turn 40, Cameron isn't at all worried about how the passage of time will affect her appearance. In fact, the star said she loves ageing.
'When I was in my 20s, I couldn't wait to get to my 30s. Now that I'm in my 30s, I'm so looking forward to my 40s. I love getting older,' she told Jay Leno.
This means she isn't rushing to hold back the years herself and recommends other people accept her 'do or die' attitude.
'I'm appreciating my skin and my wrinkles and all those things because you cannot stop aging, you can't,' she told Harper's Bazaar. 'The only way to stop it is if you die. But that's not a great alternative.'
told Vogue that if she did have to pinpoint her secrets for eternal
youth, she would recommend 'exercise, healthy diet, lots of water, lots
of laughter, lots of sex - yes, sex, we need that as human beings. It's
healthy, it's natural, it's what we are here to do!'
The star is a fan of Victoria Beckham dresses and has worn them on numerous red carpet occasions.
She also admits: 'Everything I wear tends to revolve around my breasts. It's not because I'm trying to be sexy, but because I find wearing a bra extremely uncomfortable.
'Basically, I like to wear short skirts that show my stomach. Or little baby doll dresses that are open at the top and super short at the bottom.'
The actress has revealed she loves to shop at Versace and Giorgio Armani and that she also has 'a serious shoe fetish'.
'Come on, a girl can never have too many sandals!' she told the Daily Mail.
She added in the interview that less is more when it comes to swimwear. 'I don't like tan-lines, so I try to get the smallest bikini possible.'
Cameron told teen magazine Seventeen that she thinks it's important to have a work-life balance.
'I did film after film after film after film. It was an amazing experience that I'm so thankful for but I got to the point where I was like, "I don't have a house. I don't have any place to put my bags. I haven't seen my family. I have no friends." In life you have to have a balance.'
She added: 'I don't think my career or my life is a competition. I didn't feel like I had to be somewhere for any other reason than if I wanted to be there.'

Uniquely positioned in life, I search for application and service ideas that can be converted into profitable or open-source products. Most important to me is positive energy and accomplishment.
I'm digging Golang more and more each day and the godoc tool is proving quite useful. If you plan to release your code into the wild and have it show up in the public godoc at: http://godoc.org/, then, it is probably a good idea to attempt to provide documentation that is as complete as possible.
So, I've been moving forward with Golang lately and really like it a lot. Today, I was wondering what order tests are run and decided to find out a little. Basically, I created a directory containing a few test files.
I couldn't find this answer in the officail documentation. If it exists, then, it eluded me.
Reading a file line by line in Golang is pretty easy. Have a look at the following example:
This is an update to my previous article in this series. This article will be to the point For more details, see my previous article.
Have a code base or app with sub-directories / sub-packages? Want to run all of the tests all at once?

If you are a cruiser, you will like this charm. It is very pretty although pretty small.
This is a tiny piece with AMAZING detail! I love it. Can't wear it with loose weave tops (like sweaters) because it has pointy edges and catches on things - but many charms are like that.
One of my daughters ordered this for her sister who wanted charms for Christmas. We took a family cruise over the summer so this little charm fit the request perfectly! It's so pretty and it fits on the rather thick bracelet links with no problem, thanks to a nice size lobster clasp. The whole charm is quite dainty!
- How did the image on site compare with the actual product? Looked exactly like the item!
- How accurate was the sizing? Detailed description matched the actual size accurately!
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Pretty little SS Cruise ship charm. Small, but very intricate detailing.
Purchased this along with several other charms/pendants for a bracelet I made for my sister who loves to take cruises. Would buy it again, thanks OS ~
- How did the image on site compare with the actual product? Exactly as Pictured
- How accurate was the sizing? As described
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Very nicely made
Quick shipping. Product was exactly what I wanted. Looked just like the picture & the explanation described it perfectly.
I bought this cruise ship charm for a dear friend who recently went on a cruise that she raved about. I wanted her to have a reminder of what a fabulous time she had. The charm is very cute & detailed & I think that my friend really loved it. I also loved the fact that it came in a white leather-like pouch w/sateen ribbon drawstrings so I didn't even have to wrap it.
I loved finding this sterling silver charm. I have just begun taking cruises and was delighted to add this charm to my 'travel' bracelet.
Fits on my charm bracelet nicely
Item received on time and in good condition.
Well made charm and makes a perfect gift for a friend
Just what I expected. I am pleased.
Very pretty but the sharp edges tend to snag clothing and sweaters.
The perfect charm to remember the cruise together.
- How did the image on site compare with the actual product? Perfect
- How accurate was the sizing? Perfect
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. great
This little ship is perfect to remind me of the perfect vacation.
- Did the image onsite match the product? yes
- Did the product fit true to size? yes
- How is the quality of the product? good
This is a lovely charm. It's going to look beautiful on my charm braclet.

Ouroboros: a review
I've been following Greg Ashman's writing for some years and have always been struck by his clarity, precision, humour and single-minded sense of purpose. I haven't always agreed with everything he's written but I've been persuaded by an awful lot. Naturally, when I discovered he was writing a book I was keen to read it.
The concept or conceit of Ouroboros is that education is constantly eating its own tail. New ideas are old ideas repackaged for a new market; lessons are not learned; the past is forgotten and the future is always new and exciting. As Greg says in his introduction, this "represent the antithesis of progress – we cannot move forward if we are going round and round."
It's a short book – less than 30,000 words – and can be consumed in a single sitting. But this belies the depth of Greg's thinking. To explain something well you have to know it inside out and upside down and in his arch, sometimes terse style, Greg takes us through several years worth of thought and struggle.
The book is unashamedly ideological, but it deftly avoids becoming polemical. In his critique of the 'trendy teaching' he experience as a student, he starts as he means to go on. In subsequent chapters he explores the contradictory messages he received in teacher training, the guilt he experienced at teaching explicitly and his frustration with the constant representation of failed ideas. He takes on the bogies of project work and discovery learning, refuting the assertions of their advocates with a knock-out combination of 'in the wild' research in schools and the controlled findings of psychology labs. He unpicks some of the flawed assumptions about expertise and explains the limitations of working memory for novice learners with remarkable clarity. All this is done with patience, good humour and élan.
Much of this will be familiar to those who have followed the various debates in education over the past few years. There's little which is genuinely new but then, that's kinda the point of the book. Greg extends his metaphor to unpick how our ouroboric tendencies to constantly reinvent might be harnessed for good, salvaging the best from AfL and the sequential acquisition of expertise. Of particular interest is his treatment of the way expert teachers may suffer from the 'curse of knowledge' (the tendency to overestimate what others know) and novice students might fall victim to the Dunning-Kruger effect (overconfidence based on ignorance).
The chapter on rubrics is especially good and successfully builds on much of the current thinking on assessment, presenting some clear-sighted alternatives to the way we currently go about teaching and assessing students.
In short, despite being determined to find something in this book to disagree with, I found myself nodding along with tedious frequency. Although I consider myself more than a little familiar with Greg's thinking, I still found plenty of fresh thought and experienced a couple of 'A-ha!' moments as concepts I've been mulling over for some time settled neatly into place. The point being, however much you think you know, you'll probably learn something from this book. And if you're a new-comer to the Ashman oeuvre then you're in for a treat. Best of all, it costs less than a fiver!
You can buy it here.

Things got pretty intense at the Australian Open on Wednesday. Just ask No. 24 seed Jerzy Janowicz.Janowicz had set point at 9-8 in a first-set tiebreak when his opponent, Somdev Devvarman, drilled a shot that clipped the line. The chair umpire called the ball good. Janowicz, however, adamantly disagreed.He exhibited his displeasure with the ruling by literally falling to his knees in shock and agony. He just cannot seem to believe the insanity of the call, and it sounds like the crowd is cheering him on in the background. What a temper tantrum.Although the 22-year old went on to lose the tiebreak, 12-10, the story does have a happy ending. After losing the second set too, Janowicz roared back to win the match in five sets.

Reserve a Room in the Historic Main House
The main house rooms combine the charm of our 1906 Georgian style mansion with all the modern amenities. Many of these rooms have antiques original to the mansion, like the Armoir in the Rose Room. For a real mansion experience, stay in the Blagdon, the former Master Bedroom. If you are looking for a more private setting for your Berkshire getaway, try the Terrace Room with a private entrance overlooking the "Enchanted Grotto," or the North Corner offering a large room with king sized bed at the end of the 2nd floor hallway.
If you prefer a little more space, consider the luxurious Barn Suites that were renovated and named after iconic Berkshire people and places of interest.
This cheery room was once the master bedroom of the mansion and creates its own sunshine decorated in sunny yellow tones. Enjoy the abundance of natural light while viewing the grounds from the four windows in this very spacious king room.View Room Details

Help! Sorry if this is a newbie question, but here goes.
I just completed building my first website, but I have limited knowledge of website coding, as I used RvSiteBuilder to generate it. Everything works great, but RvSiteBuilder embeds a Facebook cookie into every page that I build (It shows up in my browser cookie blocker), and I am trying to get rid of it for several reasons. First it is slowing my initial website load because it accesses Facebook's servers every time a page loads. Secondly I am not a member of Facebook nor could I care less about Facebook. Thirdly, I really don't want to be adding a privacy policy to my website because of a cookie I didn't even add. I might add that the RvSiteBuilder forums are closed, so here I am.
I tried deleting the script in several files in the public_HTML directory, but when I make a change to my website and re-publish with RvSiteBuilder, it re-enters the javascript into every file again. There is no option in RvSiteBuilder to find this hidden code, as I have looked. Would this be in some kind of executable RvSiteBuilder code that I can't change, or could there be readable file somewhere in the RvSiteBuilder directory? As a last resort could I just remove the javascript executable rather then the calling code to it (If I am saying that correctly), and if so, where would I look for it and what would it be called?
Background information:
1) First, I think this is the offending code, which I found by viewing my web site source code from within a browser:
2) Here are all the places that my web pages are trying to access as shown in Webpagetest:Code:<!-- {literal} --> <script type="text/javascript"> //<![CDATA[ (function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs); }(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk')); //]]> </script> <!-- {/literal} →

Ruthless by Cath Staincliffe (Corgi 2014)
Closer to the blaze, the stench of the fire filled the air and she could see fire tenders at the scene, three of them, as she walked up the road. Uniformed officers were keeping the crowd away from the site. The Old Chapel, she realized, now belching clouds of acrid smoke into the air, the inferno roaring. Hoses were spraying water but bright flames were still visible through the holes in the roof and the windows where the shutters had burned away.
Fire always drew a crowd, a spectacle and free at that. It hadn't been a chapel for ages. Probably closed back in the seventies and she remembered it was a carpet place for a while then that went bust. Rachel had no idea what it was used for now, if anything. The state of the grounds, neglected and overgrown behind the wire fencing, and the holes in the roof suggested it was derelict. Just begging for some fire-starter to come along and set light to it.
She looked at the crowd. Whole families, mum with a pram and a bunch of kids around. Teenagers, some of them filming with their phones. A few older people too; one man had made it with his Zimmer, determined to be at the party. A lad on a BMX bike, stunt pegs on the rear wheel. Dom had wanted one of them, their dad had played along but they all knew the only way it would happen was if it was robbed. So it never happened. Rachel had found an old racing bike at the tip and dragged it home and Sean had begged new tyres off a cousin and they'd done it up for Dominic. Never had working brakes but Dom was made up.
All we need is an ice cream van, she thought, or toffee apples. A loud cracking sound and the crowd responded, oohing and aahing, as part of the roof collapsed and fell inside the building sending fresh flames and sparks heavenwards. Rachel shivered, damp from her run and not near enough to the heat from the fire.

Bleed Like Me by Cath Staincliffe (Bantam Press 2013)
Rachel was running. Running for her life. Air burning like acid in her chest, feet pounding the tarmac. Everything around her, the shops and passers-by, lampposts and railings, smudged, a blur of shape and colour.
She risked a glance behind, hair whipping in her eyes, almost losing her balance as one ankle buckled, and she saw the car was gaining. He was at the wheel, his face set with intent, eyes gleaming, mouth curved in a half-smile.
Running her down, running her to ground. For a moment, her legs stalled, numb, weak as string, before she took flight again. Arms slicing the air, throat parched, sweat cold across her skin and the thud of her heart ever louder in her ears. Then the roar as he gunned the engine, the screech as the car leapt towards her, close enough for her to smell burning oil and petrol fumes high in her throat. Dizzying.
The thump of impact. Hurling her forward, a bone-cracking crunch and Rachel fell, sprawling along the gutter and into the pavement's edge, legs twisting the wrong way beneath her, skinning her chin and shoulder and the length of her forearms. Smacking her head against the kerbstone. A jolt that turned the world black and brought vomit scalding her gullet.
The engine cut out and then she heard his footsteps, the smack-smack of best Italian leather on the gritty stone.
She tried to draw away but was pinned, paralysed, and her attempt to shuffle brought scarlet pain licking through her hip. She tried to cry for help but her voice was frozen too and all the people had gone. She was alone with him.
'Rachel,' he said sadly, 'Rachel, Rachel, what will I do with you?'

Beware magazine's billing practices!!!,
This review is from: FamilyFun (Magazine)
In Dec/Jan 2013, I received an offer in the mail to get 30 issues for $12. Instead of renewing at a higher rate, I sent a $12 payment for this surprising deal and then, weeks later, started getting bills for over $16 telling me to pay for what I order. These look like bills for a renewal but I think it is actually billing me extra for the 30 issues. I emailed customer service when I checked my account online to try to figure out the bills and didn't see any evidence of my $12 payment or order. Customer Service initially told me that it couldn't find my $12 payment "after much research" so I told them to cancel it and consider me done with the publication and that they shouldn't be sending renewal notices that look like "due on receipt" bills to bully people into renewing. Then I got yet another bill from them telling me I have to pay for what I have ordered and it references 30 issues so this is either trying to get more money out of me for what I've already bought OR a very early renewal notice for the 30 issues that I have already bought. I have been getting these bills by email and in the mail. I checked my account on-line again and, ta-da!, $12 has posted to my account with another "amount due" of over $16. Since they were eager to cash the check that they had lost in the first place after I told them that I did NOT want the magazine anymore, I have told them that I want my $12 back and to stop the insulting and mystifying bills. It is not a useful magazine now and it is not worth the time I've spent trying to keep them from cheating me. If I get any satisfaction, I will update. As for content, it is now too similar to the other parenting magazines I get and is full or ads and 4 "fall out" subscriber post-cards. Craft and activities ideas are free on the internet and there's little need to pay for the ads I already pay for in the other parenting mags. Got this because it didn't have ads but not now. Why it is suddenly so inexpensive -- or seemed to be at the time. If you want to try it, try it through Amazon in case you need an advocate with the billing. I wish I had.
