Quote:Debasish Das Memorial IT Quiz (DDM IT Quiz) is a national-level quiz for students pursuing technical or management education anywhere in India. DDM IT Quiz is an annual event held around the theme of Information Technology.
DDM IT Quiz is conducted every year in memory of late Debasish Das -- one of the brightest minds and finest human beings to have worked with us at Mindfire. Debasish's passion for knowledge and endearing simplicity inspired many who met him in his lifetime. An epitome of positive energy, his love for life was unmatched till the fateful day when his journey through the mortal world was cut short by a fatal road accident. A JITM (B.Tech) and IIT Kharagpur (MBA) alumnus, Debasish had strongly felt that events of this nature would provide an excellent learning opportunity and exposure to the youth. It was one of Debasish's fondest wishes to organize an IT quiz of this scale for the youth. Taking Debasish's vision forward, Mindfire Solutions organizes a national-level IT quiz every year, since 2011, dedicated to him.
The response to DDM IT Quiz from students and organizations across the country over the years has been remarkable. In a short time, it has evolved to be a popular national-level quizzing event and, with each passing year, it has been our earnest endeavour to make this event even better and more interesting. We feel deeply honoured to announce the 2013 edition of DDM IT Quiz.

Katie Holmes
Katie Holmes in 7 For All Mankind Georgia Trousers
Katie Holmes and Suri Cruise headed to a gymnastics class at Chelsea Piers in New York City. Katie wore her 7 For All Mankind Georgia Trousers with a polka dot top, boots, and a Loewe Paseo handbag.
It has been quite some time since we've seen Katie in these jeans, she used to wear them quite frequently. We've been seeing her out in these for a few years, but they still look as relevant and current now as they did the first time we saw her in them. You can buy 7 For All Mankind jeans online from Shopbop.com.

Katie Holmes in Mother The Looker Skinny Jeans in Here Kitty Kitty
Katie Holmes is certainly keeping a low profile these days! Last summer we saw her out in her Mother The Looker Skinny jeans in Here Kitty Kitty quite often and it looks like she is wearing them again this summer.
I think this is a great laid back outfit for the warm weather. Katie looks really relaxed and not too fussy, but still put together. I think that this is one of her better outfits. You can buy Mother jeans online from Shopbop.com.

Katie Holmes in Levi's Shorts
Katie Holmes filmed scenes from her new movie, Mania Days, in New York City. She plays a manic depressive who strikes up a romance with another manic depressive.
While filming, Katie wore a pair of cut off Levi's shorts with a white tee and chukka boots. While I think that these shorts are part of her wardrobe for the film, I really do not think they're a flattering look for her, they hit her at a very awkward length. Perhaps they relate to her character's wardrobe, but I hope we don't see Katie in these off set.

CBC then switched to the Leaf game, and the crowd was also booing the Leafs off the ice.

The two most storied franchises in the league are under the gun.

I'm a bit of a stats nut, so I looked at the standings for the last two years. It looks like 79 points and lower gets you a lottery pick. The Leafs have to play .527 hockey, the rest of the way, to avoid being a lottery pick. Not happening.

Boston may have netted themselves Taylor Hall or at least some other stud. Incidentally, playoffs are already out of the question, as they have to play .620 hockey to get 94 points, the normal cut-off point.

If it ends up that Burke has traded away a future superstar, I think the PR hit will cost him his job within a year. Leafs nation will be fuming and the anger will build. The media will not let it go.

That's why if I'm Burke, I do something unconventional to avoid being in the lottery. Call Sundin and ask him to come back. It would make for a proper ending for Mats as well. I think he can still play.

As for the Sens game, I thought it was pretty boring as well. When Carbo started talking, I thought it's not working. Then, his substance won me over. He's definitely substance over style. I like him. Galley's got both though.

I think the Rangers look great, but like you said, Gaborik needs to stay healthy. I'm glad Redden looks like he's finding his game. Also liked the Grats tribute by Cherry.

On the Hotstove, they talked about the Paul Kelly thing. I think that the players can capitalize on a huge opportunity if they bring him back. It's pretty clear that Penney, Pink, and Hargrove wanted to put a knife in his back.

The conventional thing to do is to settle with Kelly, then turf the trouble makers, and then find a new executive director.

That's textbook. Nothing changes and life goes on. I think the players have an opportunity to grab the moral high ground in the public's mind. They can do that by bringing Kelly back.

The public is so sick of hearing about wrongdoing in the business world. If the players actually reversed a wrong into a right, I think that they could re-define their union as organizaton that tries to do what's right, as opposed to a union that is trying to fight for every dollar it can get. It would be refreshing.

In the next CBA negotiation, the public might actually trust the players more, than a group of owners who seem to be taking turns going to jail.

In the next negotiation, the players could for once be seen as the side that fights for what's right and is fair. They would have their actions to back them up.

Like I said, the owners seem to be a legally challenged group. The players have an opportunity to show that they stand for something more firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-9215652504344172254.post-61951913568584538232009-10-17T22:51:37.103-04:002009-10-17T22:51:37.103-04:00very well written, thank you for these reviews.very well written, thank you for these firstname.lastname@example.com

Whether you're Spring cleaning, or just tired of looking at a mess, this garage cleaning checklist will help you get this catch-all area of your home finally organized.
You will need:
- Work gloves – there are a lot of messy, toxic materials in a garage. Don't let them come in contact with your skin.
- Broom
- Step stool
- Microfiber cloths
- All-purpose cleaner (or make your own homemade mix)
- Boxes marked: Donate, Elsewhere, Recycle, Trash and Dispose (the latter is for things like old paint, used motor oil and other things that must be taken to your city's waste disposal center.)
- Black permanent marker
Plan wisely: You're going to need room for things you'll be pulling out of the garage, so do this project on a sunny day.
Empty it out: Park your cars on the street, and begin pulling things out of your garage one at a time. As you do, put items that you'll be donating or that don't belong in the garage into the appropriate boxes. Separate recycling cycled from the trash, keeping hazardous materials apart.
Give it a good sweep: Using your broom, sweep the ceiling, the corners and the walls. Close the garage door and sweep the inside of it.
Wipe things off: Spray and wipe off the light switches, door jamb, door knobs and garage opener button. Using the damp cloth, clean the lights on the garage door opener and other light bulbs. (Just make sure they're cool first.)
Determine the zones: Do you have a workbench in your garage? A pile of sports equipment? Do you store your holiday decorations in there? Visualize the different ways you use your garage and plan to store like items in "zones" so they're easier to use.
Keep it up: If possible, install vertical storage shelves rather than storing things on the floor — you'll maximize space and reduce the risk of a flood ruining your stuff. Keeping your floors clear also makes it easier to sweep your garage throughout the year. If you don't currently have shelving in your garage, make or install some. Or consider using pegboard on the walls to provide storage for tools, sports equipment and other items. Use the black permanent marker to draw an outline around each item so everyone in the family knows where things belong.
Label it: Label unmarked boxes with the marker so you won't have to dig around to find the Christmas lights or your flag for the 4th of July. And don't forget to put extension cords in cardboard tubes and note their length on the tube. They'll stay clean and untangled, and you'll be able to find the right one in a flash.
Take a drive: Now's the time to drop off the items you've set aside for charity, and the hazardous household waste that needs to be disposed of at your city's waste management facility. Your reward for making that trip even though you're tired is coming home to that good-looking garage!

I have a server which is online right now, but requires authentication when accessing, so it is basically closed to everyone but me.
Thing is, I don't want to "Open" the website to the public, but I need to test my website on different browsers.
One way is to do it from websites like browsershots.org, which requires access to my website. But my website is "closed" (requires authentication) from anyone except me.
I have these lines in my apache2.conf (or httpd.conf as it also is known as):
<Directory /var/www>
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Some name"
AuthUserFile "dir/to/some/file"
Require user some_user
These above allows only access to somebody with username "some_user" and a passwords which is located in "dir/to/some/file".
Now, is there any way to give access to the website from a host also?
My problem is like I said, when trying to cross-browser check my website from sites which requires an URL to my website, they are all blocked because of the authentication I have. Do I have to turn off the authentication in order to be able to cross-browser check?

Product Description
NYPD Blue's writers skillfully navigate both single-episode criminal cases (ranging from tense procedural sequences like Kelly slowly drawing a confession out of a man who killed a cab driver, to lighter cases like a stolen Oscar statuette) and storylines that stretch dizzily across the entire season. These sustained plots are the real meat of the show: Kelly's hardline ethics are humanized by watching him clumsily come to a professional relationship with his ex-wife Laura (Sherry Stringfield) and work through an affair with Officer Janice Licalsi (Amy Brenneman), who is herself entangled with mobsters; while Sipowicz's near-death in the pilot has repercussions that crop up throughout the series, threatening his sobriety and his developing relationship with a lawyer (Sharon Lawrence)--and then there's his tense relationship with African American Lt. Fancy (James McDaniel), which affords some trenchant looks at racism inside and outside the department. The writing, directing, and acting only gets more subtle and complex as the show goes on, making this set a must for any fan. --Bret Fetzer

First Drive: 2009 Ford Escape, more of almost everything
2009 Ford Escape – Click above for high-res image gallery
The 2008 redesign of the Ford Escape and Mercury Mariner wasn't the clean-sheet redesign Ford would like people to believe. In fact, only the parts visible to the naked eye were "all new." Aside from the body and interior, the working bits that make the badge-engineered duo go were almost entirely carried over from the 2007 models. Fortunately for Ford, that oversight didn't seem to hurt sales, which increased by about ten-percent over their predecessors in a market that's down overall. For 2009, all the hardware under the skin has been either replaced or significantly refreshed. And that's a good thing.
The old 2.3-liter four-pot has been superseded by a 2.5-liter unit, while the classic 3.0-liter Duratec V6 gets a major overhaul. Both engines receive a substantial boost in power and an all new six-speed gearbox to transmit it to the wheels. The driver's working environment also becomes a more pleasant place thanks to structural improvements to the body and Ford's next-generation navigation system with Sirius Travel Link. We got a chance to play with all of the 2009 Escape variants on a rainy spring morning, so read on after the jump for our impressions.

Last year, the Ford Escape had full-body cosmetic surgery and for 2009 it gets a heart transplant and double hip and knee replacement. Both of the internal combustion engines now benefit from electronically controlled throttle (ETC) and variable timing of the intake camshaft (i-VCT). Additionally, the V6 gets new cylinder heads and camshafts for better breathing and a bump in compression to 10.3:1. That's enough to push output from 200 horsepower up to 240, with torque now up to 223 pound-feet.
The new 2.5-liter four banger benefits from a larger cylinder bore and better breathing thanks to revised manifolds on both sides. The base engine's output grows from 153 horsepower and 152 pound-feet to 171 hp and 171 lbs-ft, with that extra muscle allowing the compact CUV to reach 60 mph 1.7 seconds faster than the 2008 version.
The four-cylinder is available with a five-speed manual transmission, although none of those were available during our first drive. Most Escapes, however, are sold with the automatic cog swapper, and for '09 the old four-speed box has been replaced with the all-new 6F35 unit with two extra ratios. We looked at the new six-speed transmission last week, but this was our first opportunity to try it on the road.
Ford provided us new Escapes equipped with both four- and six-cylinder engines with the six-speed automatic, along with a few 2008 models for comparison. The closer spaced gear ratios of the new transmission definitely help NVH in the Escape by reducing the rev drop during shifts. Those gear changes are also amazingly smooth. Both up and down shifts were almost seamless.
The structure of the Escape has been enhanced by shifting to more high strength steel in areas like the A-pillars and cross members. The more rigid body means less noise is transmitted through vibrations in the structure and from the road, also a major improvement over 2008 models.
For the first time, the Escape gets a rear anti-roll bar, and combined with the re-tuned springs and dampers, as well as new tires, the handling of the CUV feels much more composed. On some twisty roads west of Pinkney, MI the Escape felt surprisingly good with only moderate understeer and well-controlled body roll.
The only visual changes to the 2009 Escape are a deeper, wider front air dam and spats in front of the rear wheels on vehicles without running boards. The air dam is said to contribute a 2/3mpg improvement at 70mph. Overall the upgraded powertrain and aerodynamics yield a one-mpg improvement in both city and highway mileage for both engines.
Inside the only real change is the new navigation system that includes Sirius Travel Link and a 10GB hard drive jukebox. The hybrid version, which we got to play with extensively, also gets the new 2.5-liter, but it's still paired with the same hybrid system. The hybrid controls have been re-calibrated for smoother performance, which you can read about over on AutoblogGreen.

Question about mortgage inquire and possibly being denied.
Ok, asraised as of 2 days ago I wanted to see if my scores was matching what I've been pulling here on my FICO incomparison with lenders. A broker pulled my scores and they were 620/620/657. Now, he told me I pre qualified, but he could certainly pre approve me if I sent income forms, ID, etc. the only problem is the first time home buy program I wanted to go through in my state needed a score of 640 in order to get down payment assistance, and theinterest rate is 2.75% whereas I'm hearing FHA is a 3%-3.5%
So, my main question is, I know I can get my score up another 15-20 points in two months but now I am worried since he pulled my scores with a hardmpull and when I try to reapply in another month or two, I will probably get denied because of the score pull. Am I over worrying or am I in the clear since I didn't actually apply for anything but just a hard pull from a mortgage broker?
Thanks I really need to know.
Starting Score: TU527 EQ517 April 2012
Current Score: TU535 EQ540 May 2012
Current Score: TU631 EQ620 October 2012

genetic denim
Nicole Richie in GENETIC Shya in Gaze
Nicole Richie was spotted hand-in-hand with husband Joel Madden during a stroll through Los Angeles, California. The designer wore her favorite GENETIC Shya in Gaze with a pair of boots from her House of Harlow 1960 line and a plaid shirt by Rails. She then finished her look off with her signature scarf and sunglasses.
These are still one of my favorite jeans to see on Nicole. I am usually more of a fan of fitted skinny styles, but the wash along with the slouchy fit works really well here. They make me think of Mick Jagger with the way they fit. What are your thoughts on them? You can click here to purchase GENETIC from SHOPBOP.
The Shredded Alexa Jeans by GENETIC
A shredded boyfriend jean is definitely the style of the moment. We have seen numerous brands release their take and here are the ones by GENETIC.
The new styles comes in their Alexa cut, which is a slouchy cut that is just as flattering as they are easy. The brand didn't just stick to the classic blue either like many other brands, but also released them in a washed black that give off a more edgy vibe. Which one do you like? You can click here to purchase the Heirloom (blue) and here for the Impala (black) from SHOPBOP.
Kate Upton in GENETIC The Shya in Black
Kate Upton was snapped while out with a friend in New York City. Kate wore a pair of GENETIC the Shya in Black with a black distressed t shirt and slouchy black boots.
I love that Kate kept the outfit monochromatic but mixed a bunch of different textures and then added a pop of color with her purse. You can shop GENETIC's friends and family sale for 30% off selected styles with code FRIENDS on their website here.

Sofia Vergara in Genetic Denim Skinny Jeans
The gorgeous Sofia Vergara was snapped while heading out for breakfast in West Hollywood, California a couple of days ago.
Sofia traded in her usual Hudson flares for a pair of Genetic Denim skinny jeans, a simple tee and her Louboutin wedges. I've always thought Sofia looked amazing in jeans, she can literally pull off any fit and look fantastic! I especially love these jeans on her! Buy Genetic Denim online at their website.

If you can hear the faint strains of Kenny Loggins' "Danger Zone," that's because Top Gun 2 is back in the works.
"We've been trying to get that movie made for 30 years, and I think we're getting closer and closer," producer Jerry Bruckheimer told The Huffington Post.
The sequel to the 1986 action drama gained steam in 2012 with the original gang of Bruckheimer, star Tom Cruise and director Tony Scott reuniting for a script by Thor screenwriters Ashley Miller and Zach Stentz. However, any momentum ended following Scott's August 2012 suicide.
"Don [Simpson] and I tried to develop something, we didn't succeed," Bruckheimer said. "[Tom] Cruise took over, and he tried to develop something, and he didn't succeed. Now we're back at it."
He even delved into some of the themes of Top Gun 2, offering that, "The concept is, basically, are the pilots obsolete because of drones. Cruise is going to show them that they're not obsolete. They're here to stay. It's just getting to the starting place. Fortunately for Tom, he's very busy, so you have to find a slot he can fit into and get a budget that Paramount feels they can make the picture."
No. Please. TG was a product of the 80s, style w/ no substance. The planes were characters as well, in a way, and changing them to one of the newer fighters in myopinion doesn't seem like the original. Goose is gone, Ice Man (Kilmer) and Tom Skeritt probably won't come back, plus it's been 30 yrs since the original. Look what happened w/ Indy 4. I'm still on the fence for the new SW too. Luke, Han and Leia had their day, and now no Chewbacca, and no one's said if Threepio or R2 figure in this new movie either. It's just for the money, the three leads won't commit to 2 movies after that. And using the children of those characters sounds better.

Edneyville Grange,Community Club
The Edneyville Community Club and the Edneyville Grange No. 1051 have launched a campaign in support of a community building and recreation center. Members are also celebrating National Grange Month.
Committees for a site, a design for the building, programs for the community, writing grants and ways and means have been appointed and members of the community who wish to serve on any of the committees may call Margaret Davidson at 685-7727.
About 50 members of the community recently attended a meeting to learn about tentative plans for the center. The program committee, chaired by Betsy Mauier, has designed a survey sheet for all community residents to complete so everyone will be involved in planning the center.
The next community meeting will be held at 7 p.m. Thursday in the cafeteria of the Larry T. Justus Academy.
A barbecue dinner sponsored by the Boy Scouts was held May 1 at Puncheon Creek on Old Clear Creek Road. The Scouts gave 25 percent of the proceeds for the community center. The remainder of the proceeds help fund the Boy Scout activities of Troop 605, an active troop under the leadership of Scoutmaster Don Henderson.
Throughout the year, the Grange and community club hold meetings on the first Tuesday of each month at the Edneyville United Methodist Church. A covered-dish dinner is held at 6:30 p.m., followed by a meeting. The idea of a community center began in the Grange and community club. The center has been a dream of the Grange for many years.
To celebrate National Grange Month and to participate with the N.C. Department of Transportation, the Grange, community club members and Boy Scouts took part in the Spring Litter Sweep. During the week of April 17, more than 100 bags of litter were removed from the roadsides of the Edneyville community and four miles of U.S. 64 East.
Other community projects have included the parking lot and walkway to the Edneyville Public Library, honoring the volunteers who donate their time to the library. At Christmas, a family is selected and money, supplies and food are donated to the family. In cooperation with the ministers of the community, a Thanksgiving service is held for the community.
Just recently representatives of the Grange attended the New Action Grange Seminar in Statesville. Davidson and Ronald Culp brought back ideas to use in implementing new activities and involving leaders in the community to accomplish the goal of the Edneyville community center.
The club won second place in the Henderson County Community Development Club of the Year contest, first place in the Senior Citizens Award and third place in the Henderson County Beautiful Contest. Edneyville Elementary School won first place in the school's division of Beautiful Henderson County. On the district level in the WNC Honors Program for Community Development, Edneyville won $500, which was earmarked for the Edneyville Community Center. All residents of the community are encouraged to take part in community projects.
In the past years, the club and the Grange have helped to secure a library for the community, given land to the county for a small recreation park located behind the new fire department, given land to the fire department and helped build the first fire station. The clubs worked to bring the Justus Academy to Edneyville and sponsored Boy Scout Troop 605 for more than 50 years.
Fletcher Summer Day Camp
It's time to register the children for the Fletcher Summer Day Camp program. The Fletcher Parks and Recreation Department is currently accepting applications for the Summer Day Camp Program through Friday. Parents can register children from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Fletcher Town Hall. Additional information is available by contacting the Camp Director Cristin Corder at 687-0751 or by emailing email@example.com.
The Fletcher Summer Day Camp is a seven-week, traditional day camp with games, activities and field trips. The camp dates are June 7 through July 30, with no camp the week following the Fourth of July.
The Optimist Club of Fletcher, Arden and Skyland is donating $800 to the Fletcher Summer Day Camp program to establish scholarships for local families to send their children to camp.
Two five-week scholarships will go to one child from Fletcher Elementary School and one child from Glenn Marlow Elementary School. School counselors at each school will determine the scholarship recipients. The Optimist Club also plans to hold a club meeting at camp once camp starts in June.
Saluda Spring Jamboree
Saluda School is holding a Spring Jamboree from 5 to 7 p.m. Thursday. There will be a picnic on the grounds, plant sale and art auction. The Green River Boys will perform from 5 to 6 p.m. Parents, students and community members are invited to bring a picnic basket or enjoy a small barbecue sandwich and slaw that can be purchased from Green River Barbecue.
Plants grown in the new school greenhouse will be on sale. The plants were grown in attractive clay pots decorated by fourth graders. The greenhouse was made possible by a grant from the Paul Culberson Agriculture Development Fund at the Polk County Community Foundation.
After the picnic, there will be an art auction in the auditorium of the school, called by Terry Cacioppo of Tryon Auctions. The auction will feature more than 20 framed and matted pieces of student artwork. All proceeds will go to support the greenhouse and the school's student art gallery.
The public is invited to attend the events.
WNC Nature Center
ASHEVILLE -- Residents may be familiar with noteable rabbit stars such as Bugs Bunny, Bre'er Rabbit, the Easter Bunny and Peter Cottontail. The WNC Nature Center would like to introduce everyone to a future bunny celebrity.
Barbarella "Barbie" Bunny is a Flemish giant rabbit. Currently, she is 1 month old and weighs roughly seven pounds. The average life span is 5 years or more.
She is already larger than a normal domestic rabbit. Barbie will reach a full weight of 14 to 20 pounds. Some Flemish giant rabbits may even grow larger. Barbie will eventually be located in the petting area. This breed is good-natured and suitable for children. For more information, call the center at 298-5600 or e-mail email@example.com.

I live in Minnesota, so I feel your pain. We like to go sledding and play outside, but we've had a streak of weather with windchills in the negatives. The worst is when you want to get out of the house on the weekend and every kid friendly place is packed.

This is the first year we were able to do anything outdoors for Maddox. We just moved to the Phoenix area from Denver, CO. It has snowed every year on his b-day (Feb. 6) including yesterday but we weren't there. So, four years in a row he has had Denver snow. Yesterday it was 75 degrees here but we don't have any friends here yet (we've been here for 5 weeks) so we didn't have a party. My dad, his partner and my 5 year old nephew flew in from Denver on Tuesday to spend the day with Maddox. We went on a fire station tour (which is FREE and fun to do, even if it snows as long as you can drive safely). We took the boys to the park from about 3-5 for playtime. It was a nice change from the snow, especially because my birthday is Dec.12 so it is always snowy or snow on the ground in Denver. We now have a pool but it isn't heated and it is quite cold still so no pool parties even here in the heat. Not until April or May for that.
Last week we went to a 5th birthday party and they had the kids do painting on little clay sculptures. Maddox LOVED it and that ended up being one of his presents.
A cooking party would be fun. Get some ingredients and let the kids make their own cookie toppings or maybe an ice cream bar or something?

I'm going to be getting that too. It always snows on or right near her birthday. It blizzarded the day before and day she was born (I told dh my water broke after he got done shoveling the driveway, lol), on her 1st bday party, her actual 2nd bday and now for her party this weekend.

VIDEO: Angels fall in 12 behind stagnant offenseAugust 4th, 2015, 11:11 pm by MARK CARLISLE
Indians closer Cody Allen put an end to the Angels' misery Tuesday night in Anaheim when he induced a ground ball from Mike Trout in the bottom of the 12th inning to cement Cleveland's 2-0 victory.
The Angels had four baserunners and two hits on the night. Only one runner reached second base.
Indians starter Carlos Carrasco pitched the first nine innings, allowing only one hit and one walk. However, Carrasco did not get a decision in the extra-inning game.
Reliever Zach McCallister earned the win, improving to 3-3 on the season. Angels reliever Cam Bedrosian, who gave up a two-run home run to Indians third baseman Giavonny Urshela in the top of the 12th, got the loss. Allen earned his 22nd save of the year.
Overshadowed by Carrasco's performance was Angels starter Matt Shoemaker who allowed five hits and two walks over six scoreless innings while striking out 10. Over his last three starts, Shoemaker has struck out 27 batters in 19 innings.Read the rest of this entry »

In the following essay, which originally appeared in The New York Times, March 1, 1982, Mitgang uses the occasion of the thirtieth anniversary of the publication of Invisible Man to reflect on Ellison's life and career.
Ralph Ellison is 68 years old today. Relaxing in his art-and-book lined apartment on Riverside Drive above the Hudson the other day, he took a little time away from his electric typewriter to talk about his working life.
"My approach is that I'm an American writer," he said. "I write out of the larger literary tradition—which, by the way, is part Negro—from Twain to Melville to Faulkner. Another element I'm aware of is American folklore. And then all of this is part of the great stream of literature.

How do your rivals' releasing dates affect your box office?
In this paper, we study to what extent a movie's box office receipts are affected by the temporal distribution of rival films. We propose a theoretical model that analyses the effects of past, present and future releases on a film's results. Using this model we can analyse how rivals' release dates impact on others' box office revenues. This theoretical model also allows us to carry out some comparative statics by changing some relevant parameters such as time depreciation, film quality or the timeline of exhibition. We have tested the empirical implications of this model using information on the films released in five countries: the USA, the United Kingdom, Germany, France and Spain. In order to maintain a degree of homogeneity, we have constructed an unbalanced panel consisting of films that were released in at least three of these countries. The geographical dimension of our data set allows us to use panel data techniques to control for unobserved heterogeneity among the films released. This allows us to control for one of the most relevant features of the movie market, namely the presence of highly differentiated products.

I don't know if people are kind enough to point out typos but on the bbpress settings section the point deduction field says for topic when it should say for reply (for the last field I think). It's directly under the field for bbpress reply point addition.
By the way, great plugin!

But When I'm walking or running they just turn off and I got to turn con everytime this happens, maybe someone have a solution for this??? I looked all over google and I couldn't find any answer thanks a lot
TCT W: Are the silver ear cup cover part really made of aluminum metal?
infamouscoma886: Oh great my beats executives are fake!! freak!!
11volt: The Beats executive kinda copied Bose.
Geometry Dash Acamar: Executives should be called studios, because executive is for the people who make music personally.
ONE SHOT WALKER: 10/10 perfect for beating your meat

مبارك عبدالرحمن بادي: thank you very much .
Beats Executive vs Studio Comparison 5 out of 5


text: Sure, the combined group of every single Arceus type is uncounterable by 1 poke (no shit), but a good team will be able to beat any Arceus set regardless. Since this thread categorizes Arceus by type, your statement "Definitely but arceus as a whole cannot be countered/checked thus keeping its place in S rank." has literally no base if you are applying it to EVERY Arceus form, since every Arceus form is not considered S rank: only specific forms are. Unfortunately, you are still wrong either way. Arceus can run a move to bypass a check but it means it will be checked by something else. Example: Arceus Fight with Stone Edge beats Ho-Oh yet loses to Giratina-O. This is why I avoid this thread because of the blatant, unchecked stupidity that seems to run rampant here.

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Sep 01st, 2002
Running Time:
Director: Brad Armstrong
Company: Wicked Pictures
Cast: Bridgette Kerkove, Jezebelle Bond, Mark Davis, Evan Stone, Shay Sweet, Pat Myne, Sydnee Steele, Felecia, Devinn Lane, Cheyne Collins, Charlene Aspen, Oiliion Day, Tanya Danielle, Ava Vincent, Erik Everhard, Nikita Denise, Inari Vachs, Lee Stone, Billy Glide, Dale DaBone, April (I), Asia Carrera, Nick Manning, Mike Homer
Critical Rating: AAAAA
Genre: Feature
Almost one year after its initial release on video and its sweep of the 2002 AVN Awards, Wicked's dystopic sci-fi feature Euphoria makes its debut on disc.
With wins in Best Video, Best Screenplay — Video, Best Special Effects and a slew of monoliths for its cast and crew (Best Director — Video for Brad Armstrong, Best Actor — Video for Mike Horner and Best Actress — Video for Sydnee Steele), plus a rare-as-a-Billy-Zane-sighting-at-a-Ron-Jeremy-look-alike-contest content rating of AAAAA, the feature alone would be worth buying for addition to any serious adult library.
But the feature's two-disc set is far from resting on its laurels of Lucite. Fans of adult with widescreen TVs are in for a treat with the anamorphic transfer of the video, encoded in Dolby 5.1 and DTS surround sound. Even those with standard-format TVs will notice the quality of the picture and colors.
Just as entertaining is the featurette about making the movie, accessed through extremely well done computer-animated menus. The footage includes sections on the movie's special effects, and the bad luck that ran throughout the production and post-production of the feature, which the behind the scenes footage fell victim to — a disclaimer at the beginning of the extra footage describes how the masters had been stolen and what was presented were low-resolution cuts digitized from the masters.
But the bad luck didn't stop the movie from the accolades it received from AVN— which Wicked presents on the disc with footage from the AVN Awards Show. Give it pre-noms for Best DVD, Best DVD Extras and Best DVD Menus.
Euphoria lives up to its title for any serious collector of adult, and may be just what Wicked feels again on January 11, 2003.

Are we still worrying about this issue? Even with mr2.5
Thanks, I just figured that out. Is removing it dangerous in any way?
Un-rooting works but you will be stuck with the Superuser permissions app. With no way to remove it.
The case i got from Verizon scratched where it says Verizon on the face of the phone, it runs all the way down that ledge.
I wasn't feeling it. I didn't like all of the icons across the bottom of the screen.

On two different computers the plugin fails with IE9. Works fine under FF and Chrome. The JS or AJAX call fails and the success message is never shown.
Also, per this comment, WP updates include the latest version of jQuery - shouldn't this plugin just follow best practices and reference that, instead of trying to include its own (outdated) version?

"Welcome to the Charlevoix region!" Baie-Saint-Paul by Jefie
Baie-Saint-Paul Travel Guide: 17 reviews and 79 photos
The beautiful Charlevoix region is located east of Quebec City, on the north shore of the St. Lawrence River. When visitors ask what else they should do after having been to Montreal and Quebec City, a short drive through the Charlevoix region usually is what I suggest. With its breathtaking scenery, lovely small towns and kind villagers, Charlevoix seems to capture what life in the province of Quebec is all about. And the best thing is that it's only about 90 minutes away from Quebec City!
The Charlevoix region basically covers the area between Quebec City and the Saguenay River. Baie-Saint-Paul is the westernmost town of the region, and as such it offers visitors a warm welcome to the region. Nature and culture truly come together in this little town where numerous painters have taken up residence throughout the years, and arts lovers will very much enjoy stopping by its numerous galleries.
If you only have one day to spend in the Charlevoix region, take a stroll through the streets of Baie-Saint-Paul and enjoy a great dinner in one of the town's many restaurants, where local products make up a great part of the menu. If you have some more time, you can go on further to l'Ile-aux-Coudres, La Malbaie, and even cross the Saguenay River to the beautiful village of Tadoussac (see my travel pages for more info). Like so many others before, you're bound to fall in love with the Charlevoix region!
- Pros:A great nature getaway only a short drive away from the city!
- Cons:Finding a parking spot downtown can be a bit of a hassle
- In a nutshell:A taste of the Charlevoix region - you'll be back for more!

Poor exchange rates put a stop to Mitsubishi's plan to import a South Korean-buit midsize sedan from the Renault-Nissan Alliance into the US. However, the Japanese brand is not giving up on selling a future four-door here quite yet.

Mitsubishi is recalling 165,923 vehicles in the US because it's possible for the drive belt to detach from their engines, potentially causing a stall. Specifically, the campaign covers 2008-2011 model-year examples of the Lancer, Lancer Evolution (pictured above) and Outlander as well as the 2009-2011 Lancer Sportback and 2011 Outlander Sport. All of the affected models use some version of the brand's 4B1 four-cylinder engine.

Mitsubishi sales continue to show progress in 2014. In fact, sales were up 54.17 percent in the US in May compared to last year. In hopes of keeping those numbers in the black, the Japanese automaker is introducing some mechanical upgrades to the Outlander Sport, its best-selling model, for the 2015 model year.

The marquee product of that investment could be a new Montero for the 2017 or 2018 model year, suggestions of which were raised with the Concept GC-PHEV at the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show and a

Mitsubishi's current Outlander Sport has done a yeoman's job since it came on the market for the 2011 model year. The affordable crossover has been one of the few bright spots in the perennially troubled automaker's lineup – it's the brand's best seller in the US and sales are up nearly 40 percent this year. The compact CUV has become an increasingly important part of the Mitsubishi lineup, which is why you should pay attention to this XR-PHEV Concept – it's said to presage the next-

Just 305 units of the 2013 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport are the subject of a recall over a potential suspension issue. Crossovers made from January 17-25 of this year might suffer from a bad weld on the front left strut's stabilizer link. If it fails, damage to the brake hose or tire could result, in turn making steering or braking control of the compact CUV more difficult.

The panoramic roof offered on the 2011 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport is a great way to make the cabin feel more open, but some owners of the compact CUV could get a little more openness than they bargained for. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced a recall for Outlander Sport models built between August 2010 and March 2011 due to the possibility that the panoramic roof could fly off.

Meet The Jazz Audience
Meet The Jazz Audience: Mark Heinricher
We're continuing our Meet The Jazz Audience series at the CareFusion Newport Jazz Festival this weekend, where Blogger Supreme Lara Pellegrinelli wandered the grounds, interviewing members of the crowd. For more coverage of the festival, including full concert downloads, visit NPR.org/newportjazz. —Ed.
Mark Heinricher, 60, with wife Lee
Town: Hanson, Mass
You are wearing a cut-off tuxedo with dock shoes to the Newport jazz festival. That's quite a fashion statement. It's been a tradition for almost 30 years now. I'm an official Newport representative. I am Tuxedo Man.
So what inspired this outfit? The first time I brought a bunch of people with me here on the bed of my pickup truck. Since I was driving a bunch of people, I was deemed the chauffeur.
So it didn't start as a fashion statement — it was a uniform! Does that mean you're still the driver? I still drive here but I'm not carrying a bunch of people anymore. The one year I didn't wear my tuxedo, everyone complained.
Who is everybody? Let's see — there's Dan, who's Dancing Man. There's Ponytail Man from Philadelphia. There used to be a gentleman who work a Viking helmet with horns. There are a crew of us who have been coming since 1980.
Then I'll have to keep my eye out for your fellow cast of characters. Yeah, but they really wanted to stand out, they'd be wearing bow-ties.

Commission hears emotional testimony from mining families in Price
With the imminent loss of a significant number of workers looming, many in the local energy industry are focusing on developing enhanced education and training programs. Topping said Utah can create a world-class learning and training model by using state of the art simulators and technology similar to that used in flight instruction, allowing workers to experience various problem mining situations in a virtual environment. This would help workers improve their decision-making abilities and develop situation-based hands-on competency in their jobs resulting in enhanced safety, he said.
But Topping admitted all that training and education would be meaningless if the state cannot figure out a way to increase recruitment of qualified candidates.
He said another part of the difficulty of getting more people into energy jobs is convincing families to move to the small towns that are typically home to mining operations. Too often, he said, talented people take the good-paying mining jobs, make the money then leave, which has to change in order for the industry to remain viable.
"The communities have to embrace this new diverse population that's coming in and set up the infrastructure to support that. The schools, highways, and cultural activities that support families coming and making the investment to stay here."
In order to get families to commit, Topping and other energy industry advocates said the state will have to make its own commitment to invest in the needed education and training programs.
"To run this mining program, we're going to need $1.5 to $2 million," he said.
Currently, those dollars are provided through a federal grant, but ideally the entire amount would come from the state, he said. Topping said federal dollars require more time, red tape, and resources that could be better spent on Utah's workers. The commission said it would consider making a funding recommendation to the governor and lawmakers, but did not specify a particular amount.
On Tuesday, the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) announced Utah is one of seven recipients of a total of $500,000 in grant funds for education and training at underground coal mines. The College of Eastern Utah will receive $54,000 for mine emergency training.CEU vice president of workforce education Miles Nelson said the state already receives $166,113 from MSHA to fund certification training and safety programs for Utah miners.

Inter-Church Prayer Group
Prayer Week
Using the Bakers Oven in Dumfries high street as a prayer station from the 14th to the 19th of September.
Initial aims
- Honour and Glorify the Sovereign Lord, putting him at the centre of all we do, as the body of Christ – "keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus".
- Encourage all Christian fellowships to come together in unity, to use the incredible privilege of prayer.
- Create a place of peace and calm where we're able to meet the needs of anyone seeking personal prayer.
- Allow us the freedom to pray for whatever or whoever the Lord puts on our hearts for prayer.
We would envision the use of photos, posters, music, literature, visual presentations and encouraging words from the Bible to make the station friendly and welcoming, and to provide a broad outlook of Christian Spirituality.

Some Accessories for Canada...
I'm so happy... I was able to create again! You have no idea how hard it has been not to be able to sit down to sew or paint. But I made myself some personal accessories to bring with me to Vancouver. I used these scraps I had left over from other projects. I couldn't sell or donate them, no one wants scraps with holes, so I decided to make some pretty things for myself.
Because they were made from scraps I decided to submit them into Project Restyle. A project based around re-using or re-vamping thrifted, vintage or damaged items.
Just think, these nearly ended up in the bin!
3 days until I leave!!!!!

P.S. I was very happy to be given two blog awards recently from Carrie from Cherry Blossom Tattoo & Nadine from Time 2 Shine. Thank you both so much! I will post about them & pass on the awards once I get time in Vancouver :)

Dye, Dye, Dye!
(***My blue dress was featured on A Beautiful Mess***)
It sucks when you stain one of your beloved pieces of clothing... trust me, I know! But they can be saved.
I've had the dress in the picture above for years. I adore it. But one day while exploring I got loads of silly grass stains all over it. They wouldn't wash out. So I picked up a box of Tropical Green dye from Dylon and it completely covered them (the green isn't as acid as the picture shows, it's actually a softer lime but my light has a yellow tint to it so it looks harsher than it really is).
I put some colourful large buttons on the top, which are some personal accessories I made for myself for Canada (post about those soon).
I posted about this dress before here. It was a bargain find but I hung it up next to a pair of new jeans and it became stained with denim dye all down the front.
I dyed it Bahama Blue and made a maroon ribbon belt around the waist.
I've been getting alot a questions about this coat. This is my 'Harry Potter' coat (or Red Riding Hood, as others call it). I bought in on a sale rack in New Look. One of the good things about living in my town; it's great to find little gems that no one else wants because it's too 'weird' ;)
The only trouble with this coat is the colour is dreadful. It's very hard to describe, almost an orange-red with a hint of salmon pink and seems to look worse when you wear brown with it (even the shape looks dreadful in the stock photo). So I decided to dye it Ruby Red, which was a limited edition colour and no longer available from the from the Dylon website.
6 days until I leave! Sooo excited :D

P.S. I decided to send the first two photos into the Project Restyle challenge.

Vintage Roller Skates
I bought these in a Vintage Store in Barcelona for only 5 euro a few years back and they've been sitting around collecting dust. Shameful treatment for things that bring me so much fun and are in such great condition.
Too heavy to bring, too much of a waste to leave behind, too hurtful to sell. I've no idea what to do with them?
