Wanderlei Silva has had a legendary career in MMA that will be sacred to fans forever...provided that he retires sooner rather than later.
Most recently, Silva defeated the enigmatic striker Cung Le in a fight that was overshadowed only by Dan Henderson vs. Mauricio "Shogun" Rua (although both fights still got "Fight of the Night" honors).
Is there anyone that Silva should fight next?
No, he should retire. Why? Read and find out!

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 188.8.131.52
Forum Moderators: open
If you are certain it wasn't the content, I don't see why you couldn't re-use it somewhere else, although it would be best to change it a bit.
First of all, I think you "must be" able to identify what causes you problem and avoid doing it again. If it is the on-page factor, you are at risk to repeat your mistake in your new domain. If it is the off-page page, then tweaking those identical pages to certain degree would be a good idea.
So the lesson learned is better to do the things moderately. Going beyond the borderline could be more expensive.
I love Google, but their support really makes me mad.
Review everything that you have done for content and building links in the last 2 months. The answer is at least one of those changes. I would not publish the same content on another site, this will only cause problems in the future. Besides you will probably be blocked by the sandbox. I looked at your profile and it looks like you are in one the dirtier neighborhoods where alot of seo is back hat. If you are in that area I would build several sites with unique content and do not interlink them. Chances are this is only your first Google penalty and you will want to diversify your traffic and revenue.
ps double check your robots.txt file
You should demand your money back on that support contract.
Otherwise, you just might consider that you are not, in fact, "banned" but that there is something else happening that is keeping you out of the index. There have even been cases where hosting services have blocked googlebot because it takes up too much bandwidth.
Since they send out a different canned response when sites do not mee their quality guidelines, then it would be best to assume that there is some other problem. And it is your job (not Google's) to figure out what that problem is.
Seriously though, while buying Adwords probably won't get you BACK in, I've proof that buying Adwords can keep you from getting banned in the first place if you're a buyer before you get caught spamming. Seriously, try it. Find a spammer who's a big Adwords spender and send in a few detailed spam reports. You'll be amazed at how fast those sites either clean up the offending spam, or have no action taken against them at all. In several instances that I've experienced with this, the spam has always been removed within a week of submitting the report. And in all cases, the spam was there for months to years before the report.
Kinda makes you wonder doesn't it? Can we avoid the dreaded banning by paying our annual due to the G gods via Adwords?
*Disclaimer* While I know that Adwords won't save you in ALL cases... it will in many. So before ya flame me I'm not saying this is THE rule... simply that it's an interesting phenomenon.
Maybe I know where is problem. I have a few pages with picture galleries suppose football players galleries. There is a few identical words and identical design but different title (Manchester, Liverpool etc.) and different pictures (which google don't see). So I could be banned for having identical pages with only different title...Will google banned my site if I will have identical pages with same title (for example football teams)?
DRGather: I use this domain for google adwords...

We address the strengths and weaknesses of the main available measures of political regime and extend the dichotomous regime classification first introduced in Alvarez et al. (Stud. Comp. Int. Dev. 31(2):3–36, 1996). This extension focuses on how incumbents are removed from office. We argue that differences across regime measures must be taken seriously and that they should be evaluated in terms of whether they (1) serve to address important research questions, (2) can be interpreted meaningfully, and (3) are reproducible. We argue that existing measures of democracy are not interchangeable and that the choice of measure should be guided by its theoretical and empirical underpinnings. We show that the choice of regime measure matters by replicating studies published in leading journals.

Guide By: drno
There are 12 achievements with a total of 200 points.
|Pickup Tournament Pro
|Complete 10 Pickup Tournaments on Xbox Live
Go into the online mode and select the option "Pickup Tournament."
Play through the entire game and once you've finished you will be one closer to done. Do this ten times and you unlock the achievement.
I reccommend playing deathmatches with as many people as possible as these tend to take much less time than any other gametype.
Tournaments have more games than other types of games and thus will take longer for each one.
|Ranked Tracer
|Complete 25 Ranked Matches on Xbox Live
Similar to the achievement "Pickup Tournament Pro" except with ranked matches.
|Bronze Medal
|Earn a Bronze Medal in a Time Trial
Time trial is selected under the single player options. Pick any level you want and then choose from collecting flags, destroying targets, or collecting flags and destroying targets.
Finish them under the specified time for bronze and the achievement is yours.
|Tracer Veteran
|Earn 100 Points in Single Player Tournaments and Time Trial Medals
Every time you get a bronze or better medal in a Tournament or Time Trial mode in single player you will earn more points. The better the grade you get the more points you earn for each level.
You can check how many points you have by looking under the leaderboard.
You get more points from tournaments then you do from the time trials so I reccommend doing those first.
|Tracer Champion
|Earn a Gold Medal in the Battle Royale Tournament
The battle royale tournament is the final tournament you unlock and is comprised of every single type of game type.
Getting gold on the tournament means that you earned more points in the games throughout the tournament than anyone else. Only gold, silver, and bronze finishers earn any points so try to finish in the top three if not at number one.
If you earn platinum (finish first on each event) you still unlock the achievement.
|Platinum Medal
|Earn a Platinum Medal in a Tournament by winning every match
I reccomend the first tourament as it is the easiest and the shortest.
Simply keep replaying the levels until you get first in each event. If you get second there is no coming back from it so simply reset the tournament.
|Flip Award
|Perform a Back Flip
You back flip off basically every jump in the game by simply holding back on the while going up the jump and then continuing to hold it while you are in mid-air.
I personally like to do the target time trial on the street mode of the zone Red Hook. At the start of the game you will come up to a large ramp. Use your boost to quickly go up the ramp and get some extra air. Hold back on the while you're going up and when you land you should have the achievement.
Here is a video of the aformentioned description.
|Upgrade Award
|Fully upgrade your board and your weapons
While playing through tournaments you may notice that you recieve money and then in turn between events you can purchase upgrades for your board and weapons. You have to take all that money and max out each of your boards stats.
The minimum amount of money you will need to max out your weapons/boards is 288,000. Since you start off with 14,000 dollars you only need 274,000. You can get one or two grand each time you touch a green $ symbol floating around in the levels.
You must upgrade you board/weapons to their max in just one tournament. Otherwise the stats will reset and you will have to start over. I reccommend using the following settings against one AI on alocal play Cash Tournament.
Focus solely on grabbing all the money before you kill your enemy. Since long gives you twenty rounds and you need 274,000 dollars you will need 13,700 dollars per round.
Also I reccommend you upgrade your board first since the weapons won't be useful for collecting money.
|Grind Award
|Take down an opponent while on a grind
When it says "take down an opponent while on a grind" it means that you must be grinding.
This can be done in on or offline mode. I reccomend doing a tournament and focusing on upgrading your favorite weapon (I reccomend the rocket launcher) so that you can quickly kill someone who is likely to be far away.
Once you get to an arena with a grind rail (I reccomend the level "Governor's Island") jump onto the grind rail with and then fire off as many rounds at an enemy as you can. Hopefully you will get a kill and if not just jump back onto the rail and try again.
|Rampage Award
|Earn 4 Takedowns in a row before another Tracer can get one
This can be done on any level but I reccomend doing it on the level "Governor's Island" in a local play game with some AI (or if you have them, additional controllers work well.)
Set it to one AI with the settings as follows.
Once you're inside the game simply start cruising around the outside of the map (the area that is inside accessible by the openings on the north and south side of the main portion of the map) grabbing all the upgrades you can. Occasionally the ?s will give you invincibility. If they do go ahead and turn around and kill the enemy chasing you (which they normally do) while you are invincible.
|Cash Tournament Pro
|Complete 10 Cash Tournaments on Xbox Live
Similar to the achievement "Pickup Tournament Pro" except with Cash Tournaments.
|8 Player Award
|Complete an 8 player match over Xbox Live
Finish any game type with eight people in it. It doesn't matter what game, level, or ranked/unranked.
The main problem is that now people don't play the game too often so try to organize something with a friend (or 7 strangers.) To get this achievement.

The 21-year-old forward, whose twin brother Jonathan plays for Castleford, has signed a three-year deal with the Robins after the clubs agreed an undisclosed transfer fee.
Rovers coach Craig Sandercock said: "Adam fits the profile that we're looking for in that he's young, he's English and he's very keen to learn and improve as a player."
He added: "I watched him a few times last season and was very impressed with what I saw.
"He has a lot of potential and, if he works hard and maintains the right attitude, then he has a great chance of establishing himself as a Super League player."
Walker, a product of the Giants academy system, made four Super League appearances last season when he also played on a dual registration for Championship club Swinton.
He said: "Craig has told me how he sees me fitting into the squad and what he expects from me so I'm just looking forward to getting stuck into pre-season.
"It was tough leaving Huddersfield because I've been there a long time and know everyone but the staff and lads here at Hull KR have made me very welcome."

When the official release of Windows 8 comes out 10/26 (or soon thereafter), I will want to upgrade from the RC on my laptop.
I understand that I can't just upgrade in place; I have to do a full re-installation. Has anybody compiled a tutorial for how to do this? I assume I'll have to uninstall Windows-8 RC first?
If so, I know I need to do a backup of my personal files. Is it a case where the apps I've installed and my files might be lost, or that they definitely will be lost?

My name is Willow Marsden and I'm a freelance graphic designer.
I also run a forum for people with Aspergers Syndrome, and do YouTube videos to try and help others on the Autistic Spectrum. I myself has Aspergers, Dyspraxia and ADD. At the moment I'm in the middle of writing my second book, which is about coping with Aspergers Syndrome, and life before the diagnosis.
In my spare time I enjoy taking photos; I love my Canon Kiss X4 and take it everywhere with me. I used to draw and paint all the time, but that shifted into graphic design using Photoshop.

The first volume of âDemo,â a 12-issue mini-series published by AiT/Planet Lar, was one of the best comics to come out in 2003-04, as Brian Wood and Becky Cloonan crafted fantastic stories about people who powers of some sort (sometimes only in the most ancillary sense of the word.) Every issue was self-contained and the subject matter ranged from a young boy who is picked on whose powers manifest in a frightening way, to the dissolution of a relationship. Word that Wood and Cloonan would be doing a six-issue second volume brought about mixed feelings of wondering why they would want to return when the first series was so great and the desire to see more stellar work from the pair.
The first issue is pretty good, but it isnât of the quality that the best âDemoâ stories were six years ago. That still makes it one of the better comics to come out this week. The story concerns Joan, a woman who is haunted the same dream over and over about a woman who is killed. The dream is so intense that sheâs afraid to fall asleep and it overtakes her life. When she discovers where the dream takes place, she is compelled to help the woman, convinced that itâs a warning, and that itâs her duty to save the woman. Where the story goes after that isnât too hard to figure out or to see coming, but the telling is skillfully done and effective.
Wood told CBRâs Steve Sunu that âThese stories have a lot more of a supernatural flair than anything else,â and thatâs reflected here. âThe Waking Life of Angelsâ reads more as a horror story or psychological thriller than a story about superpowers; Joan is obsessed with this recurring dream and her compulsion to stop it from happening. However, the story feels incomplete since we know so little about Joan and her life. When she quits her job and ends her relationship, those actions mean little since we donât know how important to her they were to begin with. The focus on her obsession with this dream shunts everything in her life to the side, but the storyâs focus on her obsession does the same, making her obsession less powerful.
That lack of impact is counterbalanced by Becky Cloonanâs stunning art, which, like the first series, is presented here in black and white. She uses a seemingly basic layout of two or three tiers with rectangular panels, but makes only the non-sleeping worldâs panelsâ borders straight. For the dreaming panels, the borders look as though they were attempts at straight lines done freehand, an effective technique that pays off later in the issue. Cloonanâs line work is minimalistic for the most part in this issue, but she does some amazing, intricate work for the setting of Joanâs dream that stands out because the rest of the art is much simpler and less detailed. The dream being more detailed than the real world is an interesting subversion of how dreams are usually depicted in art.
Cloonanâs depiction of Joan throughout the issue adds quite a bit. Much of Joanâs obsession and strange behavior is carried by Cloonanâs art. She does some of the best facial expressions Iâve ever seen her draw in this issue with Joan.
While not a âknock you on your buttâ issue, the debut of the second volume of âDemoâ is a very good comic and a worthy continuation of the first series. The comic itself also keeps the same format of the original series with back matter material, including Wood and Cloonan telling us everything we need to know about the first series, process material, and a preview of the next issue.

Delhaize Earnings Miss Estimates Amid Belgian Price Competition
Delhaize Group, the owner of the U.S. Food Lion supermarkets, reported third-quarter earnings that missed some estimates as lower prices in stores weren't matched by supplier allowances or cost cuts and sales fell in Serbia.
Earnings before interest, taxes and goodwill impairment fell 22 percent to 176 million euros ($238 million), the Brussels-based company said today in a statement. That missed the 179.9 million-euro average of 10 analyst estimates compiled by Bloomberg. Excluding currency swings, sales rose 2.9 percent to 5.34 billion euros, surpassing analyst projections.
Delhaize's price cut and promotions, which led its U.S. business to report the fastest same-store sales gain in almost five years, outpaced an improvement in supplier contract terms in the quarter as higher payrolls costs and increased advertising spending reduced profitability in its Belgian home market. A declining retail market in Serbia led Delhaize to write down an additional 195 million euros on its 932.5 million-euro purchase of Delta Maxi in July 2011, the grocer's largest acquisition in a decade.
"The numbers are somewhat reassuring, particularly in the U.S., and the guidance appears reachable," Fabienne Caron, an analyst at Kepler Cheuvreux in Frankfurt, wrote in an investor note. "It still implies a tough fourth quarter with a margin lower than the first three quarters."
Goodwill Impairment
The impairments in Serbia and Bulgaria still leave 288 million euros of goodwill related to the acquisition in Delhaize's books as Chief Executive Officer Pierre-Olivier Beckers hands over his position to successor Frans Muller tomorrow.
Delhaize rose as much as 2.9 percent on Euronext Brussels, the biggest intraday gain in six weeks, and traded 1.14 euros higher, or 2.4 percent, at 48.53 euros by 10:04 a.m. local time.
The grocer reiterated its Aug. 8 forecast for a drop in full-year operating profit of less than 3.5 percent before currency swings. That signals another decrease in the current quarter as operating profit before currency swings fell 1.2 percent in the first nine months.
Cash generation not required for reinvestment will be about 500 million euros this year, Delhaize said. That's equivalent to slightly more than 10 percent of its current market value.
Delhaize said it maintained market share in Belgium following a gain of 35 basis points in the preceding three-month period, which was a reversal from losses of 43 basis points in the first quarter and of 50 basis points last year.

Location:Johannesburg, South Africa
"Rise and Fall of Apartheid" offers the first comprehensive historical overview of the pictorial response to apartheid ever undertaken. Through its images, this exhibition explores the significance of the 50-year-long civil rights struggle, from how apartheid defined and marked South Africa's identity from 1948 to 1994, to the rise of Nelson Mandela, and finally its lasting impact on the country's society. The exhibition examines the aesthetic power of the documentary form – from the photo essay to reportage, social documentary to photojournalism and art – in recording, analyzing, articulating, and confronting the legacy of apartheid and its effect on everyday life in South Africa.
In 1948, after the victory of the National Party, apartheid was introduced as official state policy. Over time, the system of apartheid grew increasingly ruthless and violent toward Black Africans and other non-white communities. It not only transformed the modern political meaning of citizenship, but also invented a wholly new society. The result was a reorganization of civic, economic, and political structures that penetrated even the most mundane aspects of social existence – from housing, public amenities, and transportation, to education, tourism, religion, and businesses.
A central premise of this exhibition is that South African photography, as we know it today, was essentially invented in 1948. The exhibition argues that the rise of the National Party to political power and the introduction of apartheid as the legal foundation of governance changed the pictorial perception of the country from a purely colonial space based on racial segregation to a highly contested space based on the ideals of equality, democracy, and civil rights. Photography was almost instantaneously aware of this change and responded by transforming its own visual language from a purely anthropological tool to a social instrument, and because of this, no one else photographed South Africa and the struggle against apartheid better, more critically and incisively, with deeper pictorial complexity, and more penetrating insight than South African photographers.
A comprehensive, dramatic exhibition of the visual record of Apartheid, focusing on South Africans' own perspective.

Games Rules.
1. If you participate in a game, then abide by the rules. I can't stress this enough. Don't post randomly in the topic; this is spam and is unfair to those people who are playing the game by the rules.
2. Do not advertise. Exactly what it says on the tin. Don't jump into a game just to pimp your site. It will be deleted straight away.
3. Before posting a game, check first to see if it hasn't already been posted. Don't just assume that you were the first person to think up a game; chances are that someone thought it up first and posted already. If there's already a game of that name operating, then your post will be closed as it's best to keep to the original thread, especially if it's long running.
4. Any game that involves posting pictures is not allowed. This is cuz those kind of games end up with loads of either red x's or pictures that stretch the screen. I don't have the time or inclination to constantly go thru threads like this deleting and resizing pictures, so I've decided to disallow games that involve pictures entirely.
5. If your game is closed, then don't try and post it elsewhere in the games forum. It will be found and locked.

Guest Reviewer: Malcolm Gladwell
Malcolm Gladwell is the author of bestselling books Blink and The Tipping Point, and is a staff writer for The New Yorker.
Several years ago, on a flight from New York to California, I had the good fortune to sit next to a psychologist named Dan Gilbert. He had a shiny bald head, an irrepressible good humor, and we talked (or, more accurately, he talked) from at least the Hudson to the Rockies--and I was completely charmed. He had the wonderful quality many academics have--which is that he was interested in the kinds of questions that all of us care about but never have the time or opportunity to explore. He had also had a quality that is rare among academics. He had the ability to translate his work for people who were outside his world.
Now Gilbert has written a book about his psychological research. It is called Stumbling on Happiness, and reading it reminded me of that plane ride long ago. It is a delight to read. Gilbert is charming and funny and has a rare gift for making very complicated ideas come alive.
Stumbling on Happiness is a book about a very simple but powerful idea. What distinguishes us as human beings from other animals is our ability to predict the future--or rather, our interest in predicting the future. We spend a great deal of our waking life imagining what it would be like to be this way or that way, or to do this or that, or taste or buy or experience some state or feeling or thing. We do that for good reasons: it is what allows us to shape our life. And it is by trying to exert some control over our futures that we attempt to be happy. But by any objective measure, we are really bad at that predictive function. We're terrible at knowing how we will feel a day or a month or year from now, and even worse at knowing what will and will not bring us that cherished happiness. Gilbert sets out to figure what that's so: why we are so terrible at something that would seem to be so extraordinarily important?
In making his case, Gilbert walks us through a series of fascinating--and in some ways troubling--facts about the way our minds work. In particular, Gilbert is interested in delineating the shortcomings of imagination. We're far too accepting of the conclusions of our imaginations. Our imaginations aren't particularly imaginative. Our imaginations are really bad at telling us how we will think when the future finally comes. And our personal experiences aren't nearly as good at correcting these errors as we might think.
I suppose that I really should go on at this point, and talk in more detail about what Gilbert means by that--and how his argument unfolds. But I feel like that might ruin the experience of reading Stumbling on Happiness. This is a psychological detective story about one of the great mysteries of our lives. If you have even the slightest curiosity about the human condition, you ought to read it. Trust me. --Malcolm Gladwell

Until recently, when someone asked me "what do you want from life?" I would survey the myriad wishes and desires floating around in my mind and pull out some random musing to do with creating a family or making more money than I knew what to do with. I have certainly worked towards these things and had varying levels of success with love and career and material wealth. But I have always been baffled by why virtually nothing could make me happy in a lasting and predictable way. I am not baffled anymore, even though I am still unhappy in a lot of ways. "Stumbling on Happiness" has educated me to the ways that people exhibit self-delusion when looking forward to predict how happy some future experience will make them happy.
Gilbert is wickedly funny at times as he describes the mechanisms that lead us to distort our thinking; our projections about what will bring about our future selves happiness. This is the kind of information (why we're so deluded) I expected to get from the book. But he goes further and explains how we often don't even know how we feel in a particular moment and how we can have an *experience* of something, without it ever bubbling up into our conscious *awareness*. The onslaught of the information demonstrating the failures of human imagination in achieving contentment is a lot to take in...Read more ›
1) We often exaggerate in imagining the long- term emotional effects certain events will have on us.
2) Most of us tend to have a basic level of happiness which we revert to eventually.
3) People generally err in imagining what will make them happy.
4) People tend to find ways of rationalizing unhappy outcomes so as to make them more acceptable to themselves.
5) People tend to repeat the same errors in imagining what will make them happy.
6) Events and outcomes which we dread may when they come about turn into new opportunities for happiness.
7) Many of the most productive and creative people are those who are continually unhappy with the world- and thus strive to change it.
8) Happiness is rarely as good as we imagine it to be, and rarely lasts as long as we think it will. The same mistaken expectations apply to unhappiness.
Gilbert makes these points and others with much anecdotal evidence and humor.
A pretty happy read, but not as happy as you think it is going to be.
His description of the reasons that our predictive powers are flawed is both fascinating and convincing. However, even in this part (which is the bulk of the book), he makes an unspoken (and apparently unrecognized) assumption: That is, he assumes that "real" happiness or unhappiness is defined by the emotional state that a person feels immediately after, or concurrently with, the event in question.
To use an example: a couple of other reviewers have already mentioned Gilbert's story of a victory in an important college football game. Students predict in advance that they will be ecstatic if their team wins, and a different study suggests that a few months after the fact they will contend that they WERE ecstatic. However, close monitoring of their feelings at the actual time of the victory, or shortly thereafter, suggests that they weren't as happy as they expected to be, or as they later recalled being. On a less trivial topic, he makes the same claim regarding the experience of having and raising children: It isn't as much fun as the parents expect it to be. And while the child-rearing was going on, it wasn't as happy an experience as they later remembered it to be. But Gilbert is ignoring a vital point here: The anticipation of happiness, and the recollection of happiness, ARE happiness! Gilbert writes the entire book with the unexamined assumption that happy anticipations and happy memories can be discarded as mere illusions - the fabrications of irrational minds.Read more ›
The biggest problem is his failure to address what he or the research subjects mean by "happiness." The same word is used throughout the book to refer to, say, the momentary pleasure one gets from a bite of ice cream, as well as to a more profound and lasting sense of contentment and meaning over time.
Although he acknowleges the definitional problem in the first chapter, he fails to conduct any systematic inquiry into what research subjects might mean when they say they are "happy" in response to a particular research question. It seems obvious subjects might apply a different definition of happiness when asked to predict their future happiness level than when asked to rate their mood at a particular moment in time. Gilbert's failure to consider this possibility -- or to explain how the research controls for it -- undermines the overall persuasiveness of his argument, and leads one to suspect many of his conclusions would be contradicted by more precisely tailored research (or a more rigorous analysis of the results).
For example, Gilbert says that while most prospective mothers predict that having children will enhance their happiness, the research shows that those predictions are wrong. He reaches this conclusion by relying on studies in which mothers were asked how they were feeling at particular moments throughout the day.Read more ›

I'm having problems with the optical drive MATSHITA UJ8A0ASW installed on my laptop ASUS N53SV. The driver is Microsoft's 6.1.7601.18514, file version 6.1.7600.16385 (win7_rtm.090713-1255), I can't find any update for it in the laptop's or the drive's manufacturer websites.
In Windows 7 Home Premium I tried to burn an iso image using Windows Disc Image Burner, InfraRecorder, running isoburn.exe (the process of Windows Disc Image Burner) from an elevated command prompt, using InfraRecorder with administration privileges, ImgBurn with administrator privileges and again Windows Disc Image Burner directly from the administrator account. In Debian/Linux I tried XfceBurn.
In all cases InfraRecorder and XfceBUrn completed the burning procedure but the disc was still empty, using Windows Disc Image Burner yielded
error:0x0AA0301 and using ImgBurn yielded "Power Calibration Area Error".
I ran Microsoft's Fix It utility to check the writing capabilities of the drive but the program didn't find any problem with the drive.
If I ever used this computer to burn any other optical media it was a long time ago and I don't remember doing so.
I already burned my disc using another computer with Windows 8 and ImgBurn, I would like to know which kind of system check I can perform to verify what's the problem with the Panasonic drive in my laptop.
How can I know if there is a driver or settings problem or if I need to buy a new optical drive?

Good stuff, congrats mate :-)

Was this pumped compared to non pumped?
If so, you suck, if not, then you're god and tell me your secret.
It's high. Why do you want to know anyway? If you're happy with your body fat level then stop cutting, if not, then continue. Simple as that.
What works for one might ''kill'' another.
Trust me. Get the experience by trying out different stuff and you'll at least have an idea what works for you.
Anyway, HIIT every day is not such a...
The point I was trying to make was that the majority won't read his post or help him because of the long post. It's not that I hate him for it.
Cut if you want to. Don't if you can bulk further and not be miserable about your physique.
Is this really so hard to ****ing figure out for yourself?

My mother always referred to her 30s as her "sophisticated years." I wish I could say the same. Instead of feeling worldly, knowledgeable and experienced, my 30s represented a decade of child rearing, career building, an abundance of blessings and a heart full of love with too many bumps and bruises to count.
After we RSVP-ed to your little girl's party, you called my husband on the phone, and told him how excited you were that my son was coming to your party. That you planned to hire someone to clean the house for nuts before the event, and that you wanted to know where you could buy a nut-free cake. Seriously? Who are you? The greatest person on earth?
Growing up, I didn't really understand what it meant to take the road less traveled. I used to be so trapped in who I was that I didn't bother to look around me. But everything came to a sudden halt when my grandmother passed away. For the first time in my life, I really questioned what the purpose of everything was.

Continental X-King Tire - 29in
Price: $44.95buy now
The Topeak Ergon pro team collaborated with Continental in the creation of the X-King 29in Tire, and as a result, have ridden them to success after success. Fast but grippy, the X-King rolls smoothly and quietly despite its pronounced knobs, making it the ultimate all-around tire for anything from cross-country riding and racing to Alp'cross. The Continental engineers in Germany refined its synthetic rubbers with nano-sized particles to create a compound that reacts to surface objects more quickly, thoroughly improving grip. These particles also form a tighter bond to improve compound strength, lengthening tread life and reducing the chances that lugs will rip and tear.

Amazon.com Review
Winner of the 1990 Booker Prize--the U.K.'s highest literary award--Possession is a gripping and compulsively readable novel. A.S. Byatt exquisitely renders a setting rich in detail and texture. Her lush imagery weaves together the dual worlds that appear throughout the novel--the worlds of the mind and the senses, of male and female, of darkness and light, of truth and imagination--into an enchanted and unforgettable tale of love and intrigue. --Lisa Whipple --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
