I visited New Orleans recently and loved this dish.. This is as every good as what I had in New Orleans. Just add a BigAss beer and you are there!
I wish I could give this more than 5 stars. I can usually "take it or leave it" when it comes to shrimp, but this was AMAZING! My fiance and I made this last night for Valentines Day, with some steaks. This was the star of the show, however. It was easy to make and SOOOO worth it. I think next time we might try it over rice. We had pre-cooked, peeled shrimp so that's what we used. I wasn't sure if it would turn out the same since this calls for raw shrimp, but it worked just fine.
easy to prepare. wonderful spicy taste.

Digital dating has become mainstream: one in four couples now meets online. Hundreds of companies, catering to every conceivable niche, match-make users looking for love in all its guises. But just as online dating sites Match.com, MySingleFriend and OkCupid disrupted traditional offline dating more than a decade ago, they, too, are now being challenged by new and exciting dating models.
Flirt Planet is a new online dating app, launched by serial entrepreneur Sebastian Coman. Its aim: to teach awkward daters to flirt better through "gamification".
Users are taken on a series of virtual dates, where they are tested on their ability to "attract, engage and retain" a prospective mate. The app monitors your progress and uses artificial intelligence to run your behaviour and dialogue through its proprietary personality test.
"We developed this test in conjunction with neuroscience experts and dating experts," explained Coman. "We decided to make the test implicit rather than explicit like the surveys offered by other dating sites – because, put simply, people lie." This data is then used to help match you to a real-world mate.
Once a user is flirt-ready, they are unleashed onto Flirt Planet's partner app, Flirt Meet.
The company was launched in reaction to the popularity of online dating, explained the founder. "The way we date has been reshaped by technology and real-time social interactions are happening less and less, which means people are finding it harder to make meaningful, real-life bonds."
Coaching and flirt training are core to Flirt Planet's offering. "We're not just brokering connections between one user and another, we're solving the root cause of ineffective relationships," Coman said.
Another company that is trying to right the wrongs of the online dating industry is Flirtsee.
"Technology doesn't allow for that initial feeling you have when you see someone special in the real world," said founder Mark Vu-Minh. Flirtsee issues dating cards – like business cards for love – that feature a unique code. These cards can be given to the object of one's affection, be it in a bar or on the tube. This person can then log on to your profile using the code and chat to you online if they like what they see.
"Flirtsee bridges real-world romance and online dating," said Vu-Minh.
The inspiration for the business came from the Metro's rush-hour crush section, where people would write messages to people they had seen on their daily commute. Vu-Minh left his job as manager of M&S in Wimbledon to launch the site in November last year.
"Flirtsee is unique in that you start a connection with someone in the real world and don't need to wait around for any face-to-face rejection or any awkwardness," he said. "By seeing someone in their natural way first, Flirtsee also eliminates any possibility of any inaccurate profile pictures."
Five cards and a month of access is priced at £9.99. For a six-month membership and 30 cards, users pay £24.99.
The idea for Dattch, a lesbian dating site, came about when Robyn Exton was trying to cheer up a friend who had just broken up with her girlfriend. "We were trying to get her signed up to a leading lesbian dating site and realised that most of them were re-skinned gay male sites and that no one had looked at what women want in dating," she said.
She founded Dattch at the end of 2012 with the aim of revolutionising the sector. The first point of differentiation: all of Dattch's users are genuinely women. "Lots of men want to meet lesbians and try to sign up to sites," said Exton. "We're the only lesbian site or app that checks that our users are female so that our community doesn't need to worry about messages from men or fake accounts."
The style of the app is also radically different from rivals. Users of sites such as Tinder swipe through pictures of potential matches and choices are made exclusively on looks (in the first instance). Dattch is based on the Pinterest-style format of "pinning" images in order to show a well-rounded profile of a user.
"Women use images to show who they are, how they spend their time, what food they're into," said Exton. "It makes it very easy for them to get chatting."
The app has been so successful in the lesbian community that even once women find a partner, they don't want to leave.
"It's widely used to find new friends or even just someone to go to a bar with," she explained. "So we're introducing a girlfriend mode, a way to show you're off the market without having to close your account." The app is currently free, but a premium version will be launched at the end of this year.

Chocolate Zucchini Loaf
3 egg replacers (http://vegweb.com/index.php?topic=7678.0)
3/4 cup vegetable oil
2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour
2 cup zucchini, grated
2 teaspoons grated orange peel, optional
1/2 cup cocoa
1 cup walnuts
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup nondairy milk
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease 2 loaf pans. Beat egg substitute, and add oil, vegan sugar and vanilla.
2. Blend in dry ingredients with milk alternately.
3. Pour in prepared pans, and bake for 50 minutes.
This was delicious! I made a lot of changes, basically to suit my tastes/cupboards: (vegan) flaxseed meal+water for egg replacer, 1.5 cups ww flour, 1 cup regular flour, 3/4 cup cocoa powder, 1/2 cup apple cinnamon applesauce, 1/4 cup canola oil, 1 cup sugar, 1 cup pecansinstead of walnuts, and 1/3 cup chocolate chips. I made one loaf and 12 muffins. I baked the loaf for about 40 minutes, and the muffins around 30 minutes (because my oven is tricky). They came out fantastic. Definitely a keeper! Thanks!
i tried this again, minus the cocoa powder and using larenmisplaced's changes. i think my oven was messed up (is it dying? why are my baked goods doomed so frequently now despite my thermometer?) because it didn't cook through and was flat. the edged tasted good though.
This is yummy, but I made a few changes. I cut half of the sugar out and sub'd unsweetened applesauce, cut a 1/4 of the oil out, used 2-1/2c of zucchini, added an additional 2 tsp of cinnamon, and instead of the cocoa (which I just didn't have) I used about 1/2c of carob chips. YUM! Serve warm with just a little bit of Earth Balance. ;)
made this as stated. i'm not really impressed. the bread has a good texture, moist and not too dense, but the chocolate flavor from the cocoa leaves a lot to be desired. i think next time i'll leave out the cocopowder and just make it zuch style since i like it otherwise. if i did cocoa again, i would probably cut it in half.

The role of state and creation of a market economy in Russia
This paper examines the role of institutions in economic growth and the role of the institutions created by the Russian state in particular. The author stresses the finding that growth-supporting institutions vary according to the level of economic development in a country. In a post-industrial society, that Russia aspires to be, further economic development requires promotion of institutions securing e.g. property rights and economic freedom. Finally, based on these observations, the three development scenarios frequently discussed in the current Russian economic policy debates are analysed.

BOWLING GREEN, Ky (WBKO) It is a trending challenge sparking awareness all over the nation. ALS association's #icebucketchallenge is popping up on news feeds minute by minute.
It begins with one challenge. Once you have been challenged, you are then expected to dump a bucket of ice water on your head within twenty four hours. If you fail to meet the challenge, you are expected to donate $100 to ALS Association. If you accept the challenge, you are expected to donate $10 to ALS Association. After dumping the ice water, you then challenge three more people, calling out all three names. Each person then has twenty four hours to accept and complete the challenge, or they are expected to donate $100 to ALS Association. The #icebucketchallenge then continues.
The purpose is to not to accept and run from donating, but to accept, raise awareness by posting your video on social media and then donate to the only national non-profit organization fighting Lou Gehrig's Disease.
"I have diagnosed this disease with many people. Whenever you tell them they have ALS, a motor neuron disease, there is a terror that comes on the faces of people who have a little bit of idea of what this disease is going to be," said Dr. Amir Zia.
#icebucketchallenge allows you to follow other posted videos.
President George W. Bush has accepted the challenge, challenging President Bill Clinton.
To donate, you can visit www.alsa.org. Click the "donate tab" and submit your donations. The website offers employer matching, which triples your donation.
Since July 29, ALS Association has raised $31.5 million in donations, compared to $1.9 million during the same time period last year (July 29 to August 20). These donations have come from existing donors and 637,527 new donors to The Association.

The Dillas entered Saturday needing a win like needing a gust of cool air.
Cristy Rosa pitched eight solid innings. Amarillo's bats seized an early lead and the Dillas closed the deal in a 6-5 win in front of about 1,894 fans at Amarillo National Dilla Villa.
Amarillo slipped coming out of the gate this season. After a 4-11 start and losing six of its last seven, Amarillo revamped the lineup before Friday's game by dropping seven players and bringing in four.
"This was emmence. We needed this win," Amarillo coach Murry Wilson said. "This was a huge win, no doubt. We started off and weren't playing well. We've got a lot of new faces so it was important to get off to the good start. As bad as we had been playing, this was huge for us. We didn't have any errors. Our pitchers didn't walk anybody. Our starter went eight innings and we needed that. We got some good hitting and we're hoping to keep it going."
Rosa pitched eight innings, giving up nine hits and four runs with two strikeouts and no walks to push his record to 1-2. Shawn Morgan finished the ninth inning, allowing two hits and one run and picking up his first save.
"I felt great tonight," Rosa said. "I was trying to get ahead of the batters and have some fun. We tried to throw strikes and make them come after us. We got the early lead so we could calm down and just go have some fun. That's the way baseball is supposed to be played."
Jackson struck for three runs in the first two innings. But Rosa settled down and retired the next 12 Senators in a row, including a double play off a line drive.
"My changeup was really working," Rosa said. "I tried to throw strikes and get ahead. I didn't want to walk anybody and we were doing a good job of keeping them off balance."
Benny Craig keyed the Dillas' offense with a single, double and home run. Craig's two-run homer to straightaway center field in the first helped stake the Dillas to a 3-1 lead.
But Jackson retaliated in the top of the second with a two-run double by Chris Vasquez to level the game at 3-3.
Amarillo received some help from the Senators in the second and fourth. Dallas McMann led of the Dillas second with a single. He scored when Alex Llanos' grounder went between Senators' second baseman Ty Dozie's legs to give the Dillas a 4-3 lead.
In the fourth, Llanos scored again when Jackson third baseman Matt Sanchez booted a grounder then threw wildly to second base and the Dillas led 5-3.
Jackson finished the game with five errors which led to three unearned runs. Francisco Lebron and Jeremy Todd each had RBIs for the Dillas. Odannis Ayala also had two hits.
Dillas 6, Senators 5
Records: Jackson drops to 8-7; Amarillo is 5-11.
Impact: Amarillo wins the second game of the three-game series with Jackson.
Key stat: The Dillas did not issue a walk nor make an error.
Today's Game: Jackson (Ryan Creek, 0-0, 1.50 ERA) at Amarillo (Elliot Shaw, 0-2, 5.63 ERA), 2:05 p.m. at Amarillo National Dilla Villa.

The US ambassador to China is making a rare visit to Tibet and has urged Chinese authorities to open the area up to tourists and diplomats, a US official said Thursday.
Gary Locke was visiting the tightly-controlled region with his family and several embassy officials from Tuesday until Friday this week, acting deputy State Department spokesman Patrick Ventrell said.
It was the first time since September 2010 that Beijing has granted a US ambassador access to Tibet.
"In his official meetings, Ambassador Locke discussed the importance of opening up access to Tibet for diplomats, foreign journalists and foreign tourists," Ventrell added.
"He also emphasized the importance of preserving the Tibetan people's cultural heritage, including its unique linguistic, religious and cultural traditions."
The visit came amid the backdrop of a wave of self-immolations by Tibetans protesting continued Chinese rule of the territory.
The Washington-based Radio Free Asia (RFA) said that a Tibetan nun died earlier this month after setting fire to herself on June 11 near Nyitso monastery in Daofu country of southwest China's Sichuan province.
RFA said the nun was the 120th person to set themselves alight since February 2009 in a wave of protests by Tibetans against what they view as Chinese oppression. Many of them have died.
The United States remained "concerned" by "the deteriorating human rights situation in Tibetan areas that has played a role in tragic self-immolations," Ventrell said.
It continued to urge Beijing to hold a "substantive dialogue with the Dalai Lama or his representatives without preconditions as the best means to address Tibetan concerns and the current unrest."

Anchor Nodes Placement for Effective Passive Localization
Date: August 2010
Creator: Pasupathy, Karthikeyan
Description: Wireless sensor networks are composed of sensor nodes, which can monitor an environment and observe events of interest. These networks are applied in various fields including but not limited to environmental, industrial and habitat monitoring. In many applications, the exact location of the sensor nodes is unknown after deployment. Localization is a process used to find sensor node's positional coordinates, which is vital information. The localization is generally assisted by anchor nodes that are also sensor nodes but with known locations. Anchor nodes generally are expensive and need to be optimally placed for effective localization. Passive localization is one of the localization techniques where the sensor nodes silently listen to the global events like thunder sounds, seismic waves, lighting, etc. According to previous studies, the ideal location to place anchor nodes was on the perimeter of the sensor network. This may not be the case in passive localization, since the function of anchor nodes here is different than the anchor nodes used in other localization systems. I do extensive studies on positioning anchor nodes for effective localization. Several simulations are run in dense and sparse networks for proper positioning of anchor nodes. I show that, for effective passive localization, the ...

Automated Defense Against Worm Propagation.
Date: December 2005
Creator: Patwardhan, Sudeep
Description: Worms have caused significant destruction over the last few years. Network security elements such as firewalls, IDS, etc have been ineffective against worms. Some worms are so fast that a manual intervention is not possible. This brings in the need for a stronger security architecture which can automatically react to stop worm propagation. The method has to be signature independent so that it can stop new worms. In this thesis, an automated defense system (ADS) is developed to automate defense against worms and contain the worm to a level where manual intervention is possible. This is accomplished with a two level architecture with feedback at each level. The inner loop is based on control system theory and uses the properties of PID (proportional, integral and differential controller). The outer loop works at the network level and stops the worm to reach its spread saturation point. In our lab setup, we verified that with only inner loop active the worm was delayed, and with both loops active we were able to restrict the propagation to 10% of the targeted hosts. One concern for deployment of a worm containment mechanism was degradation of throughput for legitimate traffic. We found that with proper ...

Comparison and Evaluation of Existing Analog Circuit Simulator using Sigma-Delta Modulator
Date: December 2006
Creator: Ale, Anil Kumar
Description: In the world of VLSI (very large scale integration) technology, there are many different types of circuit simulators that are used to design and predict the circuit behavior before actual fabrication of the circuit. In this thesis, I compared and evaluated existing circuit simulators by considering standard benchmark circuits. The circuit simulators which I evaluated and explored are Ngspice, Tclspice, Winspice (open source) and Spectre® (commercial). I also tested standard benchmarks using these circuit simulators and compared their outputs. The simulators are evaluated using design metrics in order to quantify their performance and identify efficient circuit simulators. In addition, I designed a sigma-delta modulator and its individual components using the analog behavioral language Verilog-A. Initially, I performed simulations of individual components of the sigma-delta modulator and later of the whole system. Finally, CMOS (complementary metal-oxide semiconductor) transistor-level circuits were designed for the differential amplifier, operational amplifier and comparator of the modulator.

Cuff-less Blood Pressure Measurement Using a Smart Phone
Date: May 2012
Creator: Jonnada, Srikanth
Description: Blood pressure is vital sign information that physicians often need as preliminary data for immediate intervention during emergency situations or for regular monitoring of people with cardiovascular diseases. Despite the availability of portable blood pressure meters in the market, they are not regularly carried by people, creating a need for an ultra-portable measurement platform or device that can be easily carried and used at all times. One such device is the smartphone which, according to comScore survey is used by 26.2% of the US adult population. the mass production of these phones with built-in sensors and high computation power has created numerous possibilities for application development in different domains including biomedical. Motivated by this capability and their extensive usage, this thesis focuses on developing a blood pressure measurement platform on smartphones. Specifically, I developed a blood pressure measurement system on a smart phone using the built-in camera and a customized external microphone. the system consists of first obtaining heart beats using the microphone and finger pulse with the camera, and finally calculating the blood pressure using the recorded data. I developed techniques for finding the best location for obtaining the data, making the system usable by all categories of people. ...

Design and Optimization of Components in a 45nm CMOS Phase Locked Loop
Date: December 2006
Creator: Sarivisetti, Gayathri
Description: A novel scheme of optimizing the individual components of a phase locked loop (PLL) which is used for stable clock generation and synchronization of signals is considered in this work. Verilog-A is used for the high level system design of the main components of the PLL, followed by the individual component wise optimization. The design of experiments (DOE) approach to optimize the analog, 45nm voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) is presented. Also a mixed signal analysis using the analog and digital Verilog behavior of components is studied. Overall a high level system design of a PLL, a systematic optimization of each of its components, and an analog and mixed signal behavioral design approach have been implemented using cadence custom IC design tools.

A Driver, Vehicle and Road Safety System Using Smartphones
Date: May 2012
Creator: Gozick, Brandon
Description: As vehicle manufacturers continue to increase their emphasis on safety with advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), I propose a ubiquitous device that is able to analyze and advise on safety conditions. Mobile smartphones are increasing in popularity among younger generations with an estimated 64% of 25-34 year olds already using one in their daily lives. with over 10 million car accidents reported in the United States each year, car manufacturers have shifted their focus of a passive approach (airbags) to more active by adding features associated with ADAS (lane departure warnings). However, vehicles manufactured with these sensors are not economically priced while older vehicles might only have passive safety features. Given its accessibility and portability, I target a mobile smartphone as a device to compliment ADAS that can bring a driver assist to any vehicle without regards for any on-vehicle communication system requirements. I use the 3-axis accelerometer of multiple Android based smartphone to record and analyze various safety factors which can influence a driver while operating a vehicle. These influences with respect to the driver, vehicle and road are lane change maneuvers, vehicular comfort and road conditions. Each factor could potentially be hazardous to the health of the driver, ...

A Language and Visual Interface to Specify Complex Spatial Pattern Mining
Date: December 2006
Creator: Li, Xiaohui
Description: The emerging interests in spatial pattern mining leads to the demand for a flexible spatial pattern mining language, on which easy to use and understand visual pattern language could be built. It is worthwhile to define a pattern mining language called LCSPM to allow users to specify complex spatial patterns. I describe a proposed pattern mining language in this paper. A visual interface which allows users to specify the patterns visually is developed. Visual pattern queries are translated into the LCSPM language by a parser and data mining process can be triggered afterwards. The visual language is based on and goes beyond the visual language proposed in literature. I implemented a prototype system based on the open source JUMP framework.

Learning from small data set for object recognition in mobile platforms.
Date: 2016-5
Creator: Liu, Siyuan
Description: Did you stand at a door with a bunch of keys and tried to find the right one to unlock the door? Did you hold a flower and wonder the name of it? A need of object recognition could rise anytime and any where in our daily lives. With the development of mobile devices object recognition applications become possible to provide immediate assistance. However, performing complex tasks in even the most advanced mobile platforms still faces great challenges due to the limited computing resources and computing power. In this thesis, we present an object recognition system that resides and executes within a mobile device, which can efficiently extract image features and perform learning and classification. To account for the computing constraint, a novel feature extraction method that minimizes the data size and maintains data consistency is proposed. This system leverages principal component analysis method and is able to update the trained classifier when new examples become available . Our system relieves users from creating a lot of examples and makes it user friendly. The experimental results demonstrate that a learning method trained with a very small number of examples can achieve recognition accuracy above 90% in various acquisition conditions. In ...

Logic Programming Tools for Dynamic Content Generation and Internet Data Mining
Date: December 2000
Creator: Gupta, Anima
Description: The phenomenal growth of Information Technology requires us to elicit, store and maintain huge volumes of data. Analyzing this data for various purposes is becoming increasingly important. Data mining consists of applying data analysis and discovery algorithms that under acceptable computational efficiency limitations, produce a particular enumeration of patterns over the data. We present two techniques based on using Logic programming tools for data mining. Data mining analyzes data by extracting patterns which describe its structure and discovers co-relations in the form of rules. We distinguish analysis methods as visual and non-visual and present one application of each. We explain that our focus on the field of Logic Programming makes some of the very complex tasks related to Web based data mining and dynamic content generation, simple and easy to implement in a uniform framework.

Memory Management and Garbage Collection Algorithms for Java-Based Prolog
Date: August 2001
Creator: Zhou, Qinan
Description: Implementing a Prolog Runtime System in a language like Java which provides its own automatic memory management and safety features such as built--in index checking and array initialization requires a consistent approach to memory management based on a simple ultimate goal: minimizing total memory management time and extra space involved. The total memory management time for Jinni is made up of garbage collection time both for Java and Jinni itself. Extra space is usually requested at Jinni's garbage collection. This goal motivates us to find a simple and practical garbage collection algorithm and implementation for our Prolog engine. In this thesis we survey various algorithms already proposed and offer our own contribution to the study of garbage collection by improvements and optimizations for some classic algorithms. We implemented these algorithms based on the dynamic array algorithm for an all--dynamic Prolog engine (JINNI 2000). The comparisons of our implementations versus the originally proposed algorithm allow us to draw informative conclusions on their theoretical complexity model and their empirical effectiveness.

When there's a new baby on the way time is usually spent picking out baby clothes and setting up the crib. But after the baby gets here some mothers find themselves asking the question: Why didn't anyone tell me? Tricia O'Brien, features editor for American Baby Magazine shares the realities of life after the baby arrives.
Babies can often seem inconsolable if they cry a lot. He can get colic and cry for hours. The problem usually lies in the baby being hungry, tired, wet or uncomfortable in some way. To calm the baby try baths, swaddling, rocking, bouncing on a ball, the sound of a fan or vacuum can also help.
Once the baby is here it's all about them. No one mothers the Mommy. Everyone cares about the baby and not the parent, so those early days can be sad and lonely. Get involved in a new mothers group which can be a big help.
You might not bond instantly with your baby. It can be especially hard in those early days because you are figuring out new things and you are so sleep-deprived. You'd have to block out reality of the first few months to bond so quickly. The fuzzy feeling will come in time.
Sleep deprivation can get bad. Breastfeeding every 2 to 4 hours doesn't mean you get 2 to 4 hours of sleep in between. You have to nurse, burp, change the diaper, and put baby back to sleep. Therefore you might only get one hour or less of sleep before the next feeding. Nights of fragmented sleep generally last up to 3 months but can go longer. Being tired makes everything harder. If you're lucky you might find you're a really good catnapper.
A baby comes with a lot of gear. A regular outing requires an exit strategy and a bag packed with must-have items. Even if you remember everything, you may end up with spit-up on your outfit as you're leaving. Prep ahead and dress and do your hair before dressing baby and doing a diaper change.
Expect to get never ending advice. You will have conflicting opinions with your spouse. Family and friends will chime in with their two cents. With all the contradictory advice don't be afraid to make your own decisions. With trial and error you'll find the best way for you to take care of your baby.

Sunshine Week Starts March 13; FOIA Turning Fifty
Not everybody loves freedom of information. Those who do celebrate "Sunshine Week" annually in hopes of educating the public about why they need to know what their governments are up to. This year, Sunshine Week will get extra oomph from the fact that the Freedom of Information Act is turning 50 years old.

<meta name="keywords" content="Skyline GT-R"/>

<link rel="next" href="http://www.egarage.com/page/2/" />
Is there any way to fix these things with out remaking my homepage?

The Hague Expat Guide
A Royal City of Festivals
As the seat of the government and official residence of the Royal family, as well as home to the International Court of Justice, The Hague, capital of the Haaglanden region on the West Coast, has often been referred to as the "legal capital of the world" and thus presents legal, judicial, and political career opportunities. Other industries for expats include the oil and gas industry, aerospace, media, software design, science, research, and telecommunications. Obtaining a work permit can be complicated for those from outside of the EU, so check our guide on working in The Hague for more details.
Cuisine in The Hague takes advantage of the city's multicultural nature, with international food sold at the Haagse Markt and Chinese dishes available in nearby Chinatown. Traditional Dutch Cuisine is typically made up of vegetables, meat and fish. Cheese and bread are breakfast staples and Snert, a thick pea soup, provides a comforting defense against chilly winters.
The Hague is also known as the number one Dutch festival city; take advantage by attending the spectacular International Fireworks Festival and enjoy dancing to Jazz on the Canal festival. Shopping Night sees fashion shows and large discounts throughout the city until midnight, and for local color go along to Vlaggetjesdag, a festival celebrating the arrival of the first herring to the city.

The Wedding Present: The Cruel Pull Of Fate
Santa Ana Winds
Tuesday's Pick
- Song: "Santa Ana Winds"
- Artist: The Wedding Present
- CD: El Rey
- Genre: Rock
Santa Ana winds are often responsible for some kind of devastation, so it's fitting that The Wedding Present's David Gedge opens his tale of infidelity with a passing reference to them. Set over a dark and ominous riff, Gedge spins his nervous tale of flirtation and unfaithfulness with a potent blend of new-crush giddiness and looming dread. "The fact I've won the jackpot means I've lost a whole lot more," he sings, building to the chorus' key line: "And that's when I pretend that I don't have a girlfriend."
That may sound a bit tawdry and self-serving, but The Wedding Present's perpetually buoyant indie-pop and wide-eyed lines — "Are you falling for me, too?" — highlight the sweetness of a romantic situation stripped of its complications. Gedge's skillful storytelling perfectly describes the cruel pull of fate that can happen when you meet the right person at the wrong time, not to mention the destruction that often strikes when nature runs its course.

I know I am going to hear it about the facts I am going to relate in short. And since I know there are three other witnesses to this event I am comfortable with my truth. A young couple I know with 4 sm children age 10 down to 6. Hard working always live in the Randolph Co. area. Decided to move to Richmond for more opportunities. See her husband has been employed at the same place running some kind of machine for 6 close to 7 yes. They talk to Anderson rentals look at a place in the 400 block of N17 the on Tues or wed I was at work when they came ,regardless our friend went to pre clean before move in on Thurs only to find the locks changed. The SIGNED LEASE by both parties was enough for her to get utilities turned on. And we in Richmond know how hard that process can be without that lease . And as Paul Harvey used to say... And now you knowTHE REST of the story

All scrap yards need to be shut down
There should be stiffer laws for all recycling centers that prevents people taken stolen wire, scrap or metal from houses. This town is greatly over looking the fact all theft of scrap from houses are coming from property owners and tax payers. If a pawn shop takes merchandise from someone than they have to hold it for a certain amount of time but nothing like that is happening when you scrap something (unless someone brings in bulk amounts).
The recycling center should have a detective that should be required to go and view where the scrap came from before they are allowed to purchase it. Why is this town overlooking the fact that all the scrap that is being stolen is being sold. Now, if I were to buy something from someone that ended up being stolen I would be arrested for possession of stolen property. They should also be required to do back ground checks for the people bringing stuff in before they buy it cause most likely they have been arrested before for the same thing.
To stop all the theft from all these houses they should ban recycling centers just like they want to ban guns and you buying over the counter drugs from the drug store.. The city needs to either protect property owners better or shut down the all recycling centers.. I just don't understand why this is being over looked when its effecting the community greatly.
Its like they are allowing this to continue to generate a growth for the county to put on their papers and push their permits but making the property owners and tax payers pay for it.. My suggestion is that everyone calls the mayors office and complain about it.. If nothing has been stolen from your property I applaud you but its only a matter of time before it will, unless this is stopped!

Saw the two Richmond Shakespeare Festival performances. Both were excellent. Both shows are professionally directed with local cast members. This is Shakespeare that everyone can relate. It is great that Richmond has something new like this to offer. So if you have nothing to do today go see Much Ado About Nothing. It is well acted and extremely funny.

Property owner,
I agree that the scrap yards are where most stolen metal ends up. Recently we had a theft and reported it to the sheriff department, the investigating deputy came to my home and gave me a case number but refused to go to the scene and look at the property. Jeff Cappa has a force of lazy, disrespectful and corrupt individuals working for him and most people do not realize it. Jeff is only concerned about his image and career in law enforcement that he has to be a crook just to survive today's environment. Drugs, drunk driving, thefts, burglaries, murders are at an all time high, while Jeff grooms himself for unopposed re-election. I do not think that shutting down the scrap metal dealers will solve the problem yet I do understand why you feel that way. The disdain of the agency that investigates these and all crimes is also at fault while we support white collar crime by paying our property taxes.

If your looking for a good photographer, I would like to recommend Cynthia Rauch. You can see her beautiful photographs on her website, Sonset Photography Imagery.

It probably doesn't work with Genesis Framework
Paid $US25 for the pro version a little while back, now they've changed their model and I no longer have access to the pro version ... what a rip off! A refund is definitely required!
Only for pro users.
The free version is useless. Not only do they force you to register with them but also don´t offer you the activation code you need. If you want to sell an plugin then do so but stop fooling people just to capture their email. If I get spam newsletters now I will now where they are from.
****PLUS**** If you check the reviews you will clearly see that all the bad reviews state the same problem, whereas the five star reviews look fake and don´t actually go into any detail, So that is fake as well.
Should be removed from WordPress.
Yet another app that promises a lot.
Installed it - then went to the web interface - pretty much everything is disabled requiring a pro account. So. yet again - I can't fully test this before paying.
Uninstalled - won't be back.
When I first installed this I went to the tutorial to figure out how to work it. It was for Pro users only.
As I fiddled with it on my own, I found that many other features that can be found for free were limited to Pro users only. This plugin is full of them trying to force you to buy Pro with ads and limitations.
Pro seems to have few more features than other free ones so save your money and get a few other plugins where the developers aren't trying to shove the Pro version down your throat.
This plugin is useless/crippled unless you pay for it. The basics like Facebook and Google+ will not work unless you have the PRO version-$25 ( a bit steep) and I know a lot of time and coding probably went it to it but the basic version is very limited to truly get a feel for the plugin.

Tour Edge Exotics XCG 4 Driver
Tour Edge Exotics XCG 4 Driver
The new XCG-4 series offers legendary performance. Available in a 276-gram super-ultra-light and 310-gram ultra-light editions, these turbo-charged drivers are guaranteed to thrill and inspire like no other club has before.
With the development of the XCG-4 driver, Exotics engineers have carried out extensive work to create one of the lightest, most aerodynamic drivers in golf. The XCG-4's new sleek design and heavily-radiused sole allow for a more streamlined, fluid head shape that minimizes drag as the driver cuts through the air. Powered by the game's most advanced lightweight shafts, the XCG-4 is a true distance weapon of the tee.
The heart of the XCG-4 is an advanced head design that features a titanium face and sole, an amorphous carbon crown, two amorphous carbon sole inserts, and two tungsten sole weights. The ultra-light weight carbon frees up 27 grams of weight that is strategically positioned in the lower rear of the clubhead to improve MOI by more than 15% over previous versions. The result is longer tee shots that hold the target line even on off-center contact.
To maximize spring-like effect, Tour Edge engineers created the Boomerang face. This supercharged design offers multiple levels of variable face thickness that maximize the rebound effect from more points on the face. By thinning and thickening the face, the v-shaped boomerangs allow for the maximum elongation of the titanium for enhanced feel and hotter rebound. The new design increases the XCG-4's rebound to 243ct – up from 232ct in the XCG-3. With just one swing of the XCG-4, you'll feel and see the difference.
The ultra-light version of the XCG-4 delivers the lightest driver on the market with a total club weight of only 276 grams. It features a 45-gram ultra-light Graphite Design Tour AD 46" shaft and a 26-gram Winn Lite grip. The standard version weighs 310 grams and comes with a Fujikura Motore 55-gram, 45.5" long shaft and a Golf Pride New Decade grip. Give both models a test drive and experience for yourself the heart and soul of Exotics.
* One of the lightest, most aerodynamic drivers available - super ultralight model weighs only 276 grams
* Amorphous carbon crown and carbon sole inserts allow 40 grams of weight to be positioned lower in the head
* Tungsten sole weights increase MOI by 15% for astounding forgiveness
* Boomerang face design maximizes launch speed from more contact points for consistent distance results

These were really good. I made them a little quicker, by microwaving them first instead of baking them to be done. I used just chives, as I really liked the combination of chives and potatoes. I also reduced the amount of butter a little and made up for the missing 'liquid' by adding 1-2 tbsp of skimmed milk. I then baked them for about 30 minutes to get the skins and tops crispy. I'll be making these again, thanks for sharing.
Love it! I accidentally forgot the garlic and pepper, but it tasted great anyways! (Not to mention twice baked potatoes are the best to improvise with :) ) Great recipe, will be making it again, I am sure.
Fantastic! I love twice baked potatoes and these were superb! I used dried herbs (parsley and chives)and stayed true to the recipe. A keeper!
Fantastic recipe! I wanted to post a photo, but we were too hungry to wait. :) I had to use dry herbs instead of fresh (which I'm sure would make a stunning recipe) - I used rosemary and oregano. I made this in the afternoon (up to step 18) and baked the assembled potatoes in the evening. I just drizzled with a bit more melted butter with garlic in it, and topped with parmesan cheese before baking. Thanks for the yummy recipe.

The scam is called card cracking and it may start off innocently enough. You see a post on a social media site announcing a contest. Or maybe a webpage that claims to have a celebrity affiliation is offering a gift card giveaway.
The variations are endless, but here's the tip-off that fraud is afoot. At some point, you're asked for your bank account information, PIN number, or online banking credential. That's when you can bank on the fact that those "innocent" offers aren't what they're cracked up to be.
