I guess it is b/c NoA's HQ is in Seattle, WA so maybe they sponsor the Mariners, that app is to be used to get stats and stuff while you watch the game. According to the description, there is even a kiosk where you can rent DSi systems so that you can follow the game on your system.

Owner of 90,000-Square-Foot Home Says He's 'Frugal'
Readers of my Review essay on The High-Beta Rich will recall David and Jackie Siegel, the wealthy Florida couple who was building the largest home in America – until they stopped construction and put it up for sale.
As I mentioned, their 90,000-square-foot home, called Versailles, is on the market for $75 million. After David's time-share company, Westgate Resorts, got hit by the credit crunch, the couple put the home up for sale to raise cash and slashed their personal spending.
Last week, in an interview with the Orlando Sentinel, David Siegel explained that the home isn't reflective of his thrifty nature.
"It was a magnificent home," he told the Sentinel. "Did we need it? No. Did we want it? Yes."
"I'm very frugal," he added. "That house kind of makes me look the other way … now that money is so tight I squeeze every penny."
His money difficulties, he explained, stemmed from his banks. Westgate Resorts often financed its growth by borrowing against the mortgages of time-share buyers, he said. Now, the banks won't finance the loans, so he can't make sales, even though he says demand has never been stronger.
"We never stopped being profitable, but the banks that we are dealing with are in trouble, so they're not funding us," he said. "The demand is incredible. We could do twice the business we're doing if we had financing."
He said his lenders have also clamped down on his spending and cut his salary in half. Yet his big concern, he said, is for the thousands of Westgate workers he had to lay off.
"Affecting all these families has been the worst thing I've gone through. I hope a lot of them I can hire back over the next few years."

Baby boomers reach retirement, questions about costs begin
Mike Terry, Deseret News
SALT LAKE CITY — If it's even slightly warm outside, Carolyn Millard flips the top down on the shiny red Mini Cooper, the grin coming automatically as the wind ripples her mostly red hair. She's sporty and cheerful like the car. Social Security and Medicare are not the images that come to mind when you see Millard. But she is, indeed, racing toward retirement age, her birth in 1946 placing her on the front end of the famed Baby Boom — a wave that, starting Saturday, will see 10,800 Americans turning 65 every day for the next 19 years.
As University of Utah gerontologist Scott Wright says, it's the equivalent of "a Boeing 747 full of baby boomers" turning 65 every hour. By 2030, the U.S. population older than 65 will have doubled to about 71 million. Average boomers who reach 65 in 2011 can expect to live at least 18 more years and one in nine will live to 90 or older.
Even Utah, perpetually hailed as home to the youngest population because of its high birth rate, will be pressed as the next quarter-century brings a 165 percent increase in the 65-plus crowd, to more than 480,000, according to the Utah Association of Area Agencies on Aging. By 2030, Utah will house an estimated 43,500-plus people who are 85 and older.
The answer to the question, "Is America ready for it?", depends on who you ask and what you mean by "it."
The aging-in of boomers is not going to be a sonic boom that rattles windows and is gone. Between 1946 and 1964, the official bookends of the "Baby Boom," there were 76 million births in America. In 2007, the U.S. Census Bureau estimated boomers comprise 26.1 percent of the population — about 78 million people, adding in refugees and immigrants of similar age. It's a worrisome total amid talk there won't be enough young workers to support Social Security benefits for boomers and dire predictions that Medicare will fail completely. In 2031, when all boomers are over 65, the Social Security Administration predicts only 2.1 workers for each beneficiary, compared to today's 3.3.
It is a generation of contradictions, say experts who often disagree on how to characterize boomers. They are the most selfish generation, blasts author and Federal Reserve Bank of New York chairman Peter Peterson, running up massive debt, failing to save, living for the moment. "Transformers," counters Matt Thornhill, president of the Boomer Project in Virginia. "Boomer women looked at childbirth and said, 'No, that doesn't really work for me.' I'm going to interview the doctors and find the one I feel best about, take classes, read every book and involve my husband all the way. I need him in the room to participate.' They changed forever how women give birth. They looked at retirement, how workers stopped on their birthdays and stepped aside. 'No, we're not going to do that, either.'… Well, we will also be transforming what it means to grow old in America over the next 20 years."
As young adults, boomers ushered in rock-n-roll, a sexual revolution and drug experimentation, political activism, tolerance and a push for equality. Author Mark Freedman, in a book about boomers transitioning to retirement, said their energy and time can change not only their own aging but renew communities. Author Leonard Steinhorn has called boomers "the Greater Generation," an homage to the societal changes they wrought, including tolerance and equality.
"Unrealized" is how Tom Brokaw described the boomers in a TV interview — a response that set consultant Thornhill bouncing up and down, swatting his TV as he yelled, "We're not done yet."
And that, perhaps, is a more absolute truth than a symbolic one.
"There's a lot of debate right now about what the Baby Boomer legacy will be," says Wright, associate professor and director of the Gerontology Interdisciplinary Program at the U., and himself a dead-center boomer, born in 1955. "There's still time for some of us to change things if we want. There's room to reinvent."

Going on safari is the cultivating experience to become one
with Mother Nature, adopt an appreciation for different traditions and brush up
on your Lionese – the native tongue of the great cats. Embrace South African culture
and learn hippopotamus instead with today's deal: $59 for Monday to Thursday dining or $79 for Friday to Sunday enjoying an
authentic South African-style three-course lunch or dinner for two including wine at
Hippo Creek South African Grill, Hillarys ($160 value).
Starving sandgropers slide onto the nearest camel and sway their way down to the watery wonders at Hillarys Hippo Creek African Grill. Lunch or dinner are the meals of choice and depending on the deal chosen, diners will be indulging on either Monday to Thursday nights or Friday to Sunday nights, though that is where the differences end. Duos begin the feast with an entrée of 'Mud Huts' which are cheeky little button mushrooms filled with cream cheese, spinach and semi-dried tomato, crumbed and fried, served with garlic aioli. For mains, choices are difficult with couples selecting tasty options from the set menu like the signature 'Hunters Assaghai' dish of marinated rump cubes dangling on a skewer over fries with dripping garlic or chilli butter; 'Botswana Beef' marinated char-grilled fillet served with mash, vegetables and red wine jus; flame-grilled marinated free-range chicken with garlic prawns, creamy mash and garlic sauce, or a delectable fish of the day. A glass of Hippo Creek's house red or white wine is presented to each Australian Grouponer, as well as a deliciously gooey, decadent sticky date pudding to round out the dining experience.
Located over the beautiful water at Hillarys, Hippo Creek is a foodie's fantasy. Adopting age-old hunter-gatherer traditions, open fire cooking is a favourite at Hippo Creek. They combine spits, skewers, grids and spears to provide ultimate taste, juiciness and texture in all things meat. The warm, friendly staff combined with the inviting, authentic surroundings reminiscent of an exotic safari makes patrons feel as though they have stepped off the boardwalk and into a little slice of African delight.

Skip to comments.Harold Camping Should Publicly Repent, Says Christian Leader
Posted on 05/22/2011 5:36:24 AM PDT by don-o
click here to read article
"There is such a thing as church discipline....its a biblical process detailed in scripture"
You are right, but Camping removed himself from the discipline of his church by claiming that the churches were filled with heretics and that the Church Age was over in 1988. Therefore, he is exempt from any discipline since he has no allegiance to any. However, Camping, if he is still alive, ought to repent to God for deceiving naive and desperate people and then apologize to Christians everywhere for his hubris and cult like dominance.
That is not the image that Jesus would have His Church follow and that is not the correct image of being prepared. The story Jesus tells of the Good Bridesmaids who kept their oil lamps filled with oil and their wicks trimmed is the correct image and it implies work being done; everyday work, work keeping house, earning a living, busy in our communities, raising our families, not waiting on a hilltop somewhere consuming air. Life is to be lived till the last moment... that is why "no man knows the day or the hour"; God wants us busy with Life, for Life's Sake. Life is the miracle. Life is the Blessed. We live to live, and to live is to Honor Our God.
Sure god will bring an end to time, but until that moment, He expects us to Live a testimony to Him by facing everday life issues in reliance on Him.
Camping may indeed enter into heaven, but I do not envy the baggage he has strung around his neck, when he stands before Jesus.
They used to stone false prophets in the old days...
"Once you stop preaching what Jesus said and start preaching your own personal special knowledge, you are debasing Christianity"
You are spot on!! Well said.
"A proposal to adjourn the Council was under consideration. When the opinion of Colonel Davenport was asked, he answered,'I am against an adjournment. The day of judgment is either approaching, or it is not. If it is not, there is no cause of an adjournment: if it is, I choose to be found doing my duty. I wish therefore that candles may be brought.'"
Where did you find this piece of history? I think it is wonderful.
No it didn't.
Its a friggin gas guzzling inefficient ugly vehicle that he was tired of putting money into because he lacked the skills to properly keep it running, now it happens to be the truth of this situation that I was the supervisor over him while he was employed as one of my concrete mixer drivers.
And my 4 decades of being a mechanic with my own shop full of all the tools, lifting equipment, body and paint tools was actually the reason why he gave it to me so he says. I knew what to do,how to rebuild it its just the timing was coincidental and somewhat auspicious.
And should a person who truly and possibly did believe the end of times was tomorrow and gave his empire away to me should happen I would have no reservations about accepting, as long as it was final and iron clad.
The living must keep on living. Those that choose the path of weakness, false gods and such are getting pretty numerous. I know many of my co-workers feel a bit put off they didn't get something free out of the blue, the same people believe the world owes them free rides and a paycheck for little or no sweat off the brow so to speak.
Everything has a purpose should one have the inner strength and conviction to carry the burden of responsibility.
re: Once you stop preaching what Jesus said and start preaching your own personal special knowledge, you are debasing Christianity.
Totally true. Unfortunately, there is a lot of that going on.
Not only that, but repentance is between a man and God. In no way should anyone be asked to repent to their fellow man. First, it would do no good, and second, the spectacle of calling for public humiliation is disgusting.
There are special places in the hotter parts of Hell for those who presume to know the mind and will of God...
Merciful Freepers might consider sending the good Pastor a variety of BBQ seasonings as tokens he might consider trying to take with him to the hereafter....
What I want to know is where is Harold Camping? I cannot find a single news story today May 22 that is interested in finding out what happened to him. Does anyone know?
I would expect that both MSM reporters as well as the alternate (real) media in Oakland are on patrol both at Camping's home and his office.
A fruitful inquiry might be to try to reach some of that 80% of his employees that the article said did not buy in to the prediction. What are they hearing and saying?
"And should a person who truly and possibly did believe the end of times was tomorrow and gave his empire away to me should happen I would have no reservations about accepting, as long as it was final and iron clad."
I understand what you are saying, but it does provide an ethical dilemma. Should a person profit from an action that this person knew would not occur? In other words, your coworker gave you the car because he believed he was being raptured on May 21. You did not believe for one second that this would occur, but took the car anyway knowing full well that when May 22 came around the coworker would still be here. That is like standing with a coworker at the door to the hallway and having him give you his Rolex watch because he tells you when he steps into the hallway he will be on Mars and will not need a Rolex watch. You take the Rolex , knowing full well that when he steps through the doorway, he will be in the bathroom. If he turns around, depressed and disillusioned with nothing left, would you give him his Rolex back? After all you knew he was not going to Mars, but to the toilet. I would think an ethical person would give the watch back. What do you think?
I told my boss off, quit my job, trashed my car, I told my landlord to eff off and I gave away everything I own. Now what I going to do?
Uh, the authority is scripture.
The above link has a lot of new info.
Oh, that clears it up. But whose interpretation -- Camping's, or the Baptist's? Or yours?
Most reputable Christian leaders, even those with very large ministries (Franklin Graham, Max Lucado, et. al) have accountability partners who they can talk with and run ideas past, and these people can tell them if they're 'going off the reservation' scripturally. They put themselves under authority of fellow believers to help them stay the proper course in their walk with Christ. Many of them also have pastors and churches that they are a part of who have authority over them.
Most nutjobs or cult leaders, like Camping, don't have anyone in authority over themselves, setting themselves up as the highest authority. In their minds, the only one they answer to is "God".
(Note: I put "God" in quotes because a lot of times their ideas are so half-baked and strange that the true God had absolutely nothing to do with it, even though they give Him 'credit' for it.)
Camping did have resources for accountability, and chose to ignore them. He was teaching at Alameda Community Church, of the Christian Reformed Church denomination, where he was asked to stop teaching on May 1988. My guess is that the other elders of the church had previously approached him with their concerns (a Biblical approach BTW). Camping chose to walk out in a huff. His claim that the Holy Spirit left the church on 21May1988 and no one would be saved after that may coincide with the date that he was to stop teaching.
Between two and four, as the cableguy says..
I guess you must have missed the parts of the New Testament calling sinner's to repentance? St. Paul and Peter seemed to mention it a few times. Maybe you could read the NT through a couple of times and give us your interpretation?
I don't follow Camping (because he is a proven false prophet), so you'll have to excuse me for not knowing about his affiliation - or lack thereof.
I don't have any interest in a Rolex personally.
But I did buy from another co-worker years ago a somewhat damaged but ultimately repairable a 12,000 watt (12KW) Onan diesel generator that he found along the Alaska Highway miles from no where and hauled it back onto his truck, I bought it, a welder and an air compressor for $150. He needed fast cash right then and there. I'm not a pawn shop.
The generator is worth at least $2,000, months later he came back demanding I sell everything back to him.
What would you do?
That reminds me of the joke about Epiphany that ends, "The Gospel says the wise men came from a faaaahr."
I did. The topic is false teaching, something of which both Catholicism and Harold Camping are guilty.
There is a big difference in buying a damaged generator from a coworker who needed fast cash and a car from someone who had placed his faith in something that you knew beforehand would not occur. The first guy wanted money which you gave him and therefore has no moral or legal right to reclaim the generator. But the second fellow gave you the truck for a pathetic and tragic reason which you knew was false, but you took the truck anyway. That, to me, seems like profiting from someone's misery. My example to you in the previous post was not to highlight the Rolex but to show the ethical conundrum.
Bait refused.
in my case, this would be before literally wearing the binding off my "NIV" bible before converting, by God's grace, to Catholicism from 20+ years in the pitiful heresy of Protestantism.
"A daily Mass attendee will hear most of the entire bible read to him every two years."
Ummm...no. Most but not all of the New Testament, and just a fraction of the Old.
13.5% of the Old Testament, and 71.5% of the New Testament. 41% of the New Testament and 4% of the Old if you don't go every day.
Ping to #84.
I think alot of people should apologize for being so gullible as to be taken in by a goofy old guy who's been wrong SEVERAL times before!
It wasn't a demand, it was a recommendation based upon biblical principles.
The Baptist "magesterium" is the local church, which wouldn't apply to the relationship in this instance.
I think he should commit Hari-Kari-on TV.
Because to be "honestly wrong" he had to:
(1) Ignore a significant amount of what is written in the Bible (including the "no man knows the day" teaching by Jesus). This is tantamount to ripping pages out of the Bible, because you don't like what they say.
(2) He had to twist and bend scripture in other areas to support his prophecy. This includes being dogmatic about verses--demanding that there is only once correct intrepretation of a verse: the intrepretation that supports YOUR position.
(3) The Bible bluntly states that those that hold themselves out to be religious teachers will be held to a higher standard by God come judgement day.
(4) This is the second time he has made the exact same "honest mistake." As the old saying goes: once is an accident, the second time is a pattern. And the "honest mistake" he keeps making is placing his own, private interpretation of scripture above what the text of the Bible clearly states--states in such a clear manner that even a child can understand it: no man knows the hour or the day.

So much for hedgies and mutual funds being the "smart money." If I was a shareholder in the seller, I would be inclined to think management didn't know what it was doing to try to dump that many shares on the open instead of gradually selling into the market or finding a pre-arranged buyer.GLTA.

My DD goes to bed with little problems. The occasional, "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie" rundown, but.....that's typical.
Anyway. Last night, she woke up around 1 am and was belligerent. Screaming, crying, the whole 9 yards. My husband got up, only to come back a few minutes later saying that he had no idea what her problem was because she wouldn't talk to him. Just cried....hysterically. After calming down, somewhat, she would respond to our questions with "NO" She was still unable to use her words to tell us what the problem was. She basically cried herself to sleep. Let me note that this was not a sad cry. It was more of a angry, frustrated, crazy person cry.
This is not the first time we have dealt with this.
Does anyone else deal with this? Is this just a weird quirk that my daughter has? Or is this something that goes deeper?
Any advice is appreciated. I can't tell you how hard it is to be calm and level headed at 1 am when you are exhausted. :(

This is perhaps my favorite set of pearls because of the different colors of aqua. Certain colors just speak to you, and these have spoken several times...I've bought about 3 sets of these already and probably will need more. It's so much fun to have a box full of bling to look at to inspire your layouts or greeting cards!
I love these self-adhesive pearls and crystals. I have orderd most of the color combinations and will use them as flower centers and for other embellishing on my handmade cards, gift tags and name tags. I've used the crystals to decorate my clip on sunglasses so now I have pretty sun glasses, too.
Really gorgeous and best of all - really affordable! I love the different blues that came in this set of crystals and pearls. They make beautiful flower centers for the E-Line flowers and great little accents for anywhere on a page.
I have every color of bling made by Prima. I like the colors, the fact that they have adhesive on the back and that they stay on the pages. Also the fact that there are so many coloirs. A great buy.

The Potters did brilliantly last season. We have acquired players with considerable potential to push us even further forward this season.But we have lost more Pulis building blocks,who have underpinned our successes under Hughes' stewardship.N'Zonzi and Begovic departed,Ryan Shawcross still crocked.
On the evidence of pre season we have,in Butland, a keeper who is up to the job.Wollscheid does not fill me with confidence, no rock in the Shawcross mould,a tad on the slow side,and too easily bypassed by opposing forwards.It remains to be seen whether between them Afellay and Van Hinkel can compensate for the loss of N'Zonzi.
Success will require not only that the team gels, but 'cruciately'(apols!) we avoid injuries on the scale that we suffered them last season.
Good luck to the Team,and the Fans for the new season.

Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: Specialty
Specialty Type: BBW
Porn adventurer Joey Silvera tips the scales in favor of fleshy filth in "Evil BBW Gold 2." The veteran pervert captures a bevy of big, beautiful women (BBWs) in five scenes of plus-sized eroticism starring curvaceous, jiggling, sex-hungry sluts! With over three hours of huge fun, this is a visual feast for devotees of voluptuous, bountiful beauties.
Joey Silvera's been directing adult movies for almost two decades (and performing about twice as long), yet this series is his first with "BBW" in the title. He makes up for lost time here, celebrating his voluptuous leading ladies with the same enthusiasm he's brought to another niche—transsexual porn—for more than 10 years.
The second installment in this new series focuses on anal action, including a long girl/girl/toy scene with the best-known performers, Kelly Shibari and Buxom Bella. Shibari starts off wearing what looks like a Crystal Delights fox tail buttplug; Bella has nice, sensitive nipples, which Shibari presses close together so she can run her tongue over both. It's a long scene with lots of variety—licking, tribbing and dildos of various types and sizes, including strap-ons.
The rest of the action is boy/girl, with Christian XXX doing the drilling in three out of four cases. Pretty Eliza Allure takes it in the ass for the first time ever. Christian rides the more seasoned Mazzaratie Monica's 50-inch ass and even gets her to gape.
Klaudia Kelly, however, wants something a little different. She tells Silvera, "I love black guys. Because I'm so white and they're so black. The contrast. It looks so good." She picks up the phone and says, "I'd like to order a black cock." The pale, pretty Kelly, who looks like a plus-size Gabor sister, sports a red top, blue skirt and yellow shoes with black lace hose and a polka-dot garter belt. She gets what she's ordered when Sean Michaels drops by. Soon he's balls deep, murmuring to the director, "The pussy's fucking tight, Joe." After he drops a second load, Michaels says, "I knew I was gonna cum hard."
Silvera interacts the most with the last girl, Star Staxx. "You're pretty adorable," he coos while she caresses her boobs. "Has anyone ever worshiped your stomach?" Silvera even gets to feel up a boob before Christian takes over. "You have the softest skin anyone could have," the director says, getting fully into the BBW spirit.

Valentine's Day Report: New Yorkers Want To Date And Move At The Same Time
Valentine's Day might have lost the allure of romance (or, rather, sex) for some people, but there is still some hope in the city. We checked in with site HowAboutWe -- which encourages the lovelorn to post ideas for dates -- and were told that New York postings have been steadily rising since January 13. That's when, as HowAboutWe.com media director Erin Scottberg said, holiday malaise has run its course, those "why are you still single?" questions are still on the brain, and Valentine's Day hype starts getting going. Last year, according to Scottberg, there was an increase in the number of dates posted through Feb. 14 (the big day). That then leveled out until the beginning of March when people started to embark on finding springtime beaus. But what have New Yorkers been wanting to do on their posted dates recently? Go tour a sewage plant? Not exactly, but let's just say that New Yorkers have been looking for something more than just a pleasant time with another person.
What have New Yorkers been digging during these winter months of 2012? Trendy liquors have included scotch and whiskey, and what HowAboutWe considers successful ideas for dates have involved tea, fireplaces and concerts. But, since January, New Yorkers have also shown a bizarre propensity for desiring to plan dates involving moving.
Yes, Scottberg said HowAboutWe has seen a spike in the amount of people looking to get more than just a date out of a date. Daters are suggesting doing things like going to IKEA to pick out furniture -- perhaps, it can be a perfectly adorkable experience like in (500) Days of Summer -- or helping a potential love interest pack. New Yorkers, Scottberg said, are "practical."
"Try somebody out and get something done at the same time," Scottberg said. "It's only a New York trend."

We know that's not something we would sign up for -- the fireplace-bar-hot toddy concept Scottberg mentioned sounds much more appealing -- but, hey, whatever floats your boat.
And speaking of tastes, what have New Yorkers not been into recently? Tequila, sushi, cupcakes have not been appearing as often in suggestions. Meanwhile, though comedy shows, museums and ice skating show up a lot they are not deemed "successful," getting fewer responses. What? People haven't been recreating this moment out of Rocky?
"For a date you want to connect with somebody who wants something more specific," Scottberg said. "Everybody likes ice skating. Everyone says, 'oh I need to get to MOMA more' or 'oh, I need to get to the Whitney more.'"
So, New Yorkers that use this site are atypical people who want help getting their own lives sorted out before investing in someone else? Sounds about right.

The Rotary Club of Aberdeen Deeside has about 40 members who enjoy meeting regularly to socialise and to plan activities which raise money for local, national and international charities and good causes. The atmosphere at our meetings is relaxed and informal with weekly meetings taking the form of a meal followed by a speaker on a topic of interest.
Some of our members have recently constructed a shelter for pygmy goats at nearby VSA Easter Anguston Farm.
The new shelter is on the left. The old "Goat Gaff" could only accomodate the original two goats. The Goat Gaff sign will be moved over in due course as the old shelter will be moved and used for other purposes.

Much of the literature on the history of the prediction and discovery of the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation (CMBR) is incorrect in some respects. I focus on the early history of the CMBR, from its prediction in 1948 to its measurement in 1964, basing my discussion on the published literature, the private papers of Ralph A. Alpher, and interviews with several of the major figures involved in the prediction and measurement of the CMBR. I show that the early prediction of the CMBR continues to be widely misunderstood.

The MSCI Emerging Markets Index slid 1.6 percent to 1,081.06 as of 5 p.m. in New York. The gauge dropped 2.8 percent in the past five days, its third weekly decline and longest losing streak since May.
South Korea's Kospi Index slid 1.3 percent while the Shanghai Composite Index slipped 0.9 percent, the first decline in three days. Hungary's Bux Index slumped 2.8 percent after the government moved to effectively nationalize private pension funds, making the gauge the world's worst-performer today.
Brazil's Bovespa stock index fell 1.6 percent, capping the biggest weekly decline in almost five months, on signs the central bank will raise interest rates and as concern deepened that the global economy is weakening.
Chinese banks retreated, paced by Industrial & Commercial Bank of China Ltd., amid speculation the government may cut the target for new lending next year. In South Korea, the defense minister quit while the nation prepared for joint military exercises with the U.S. starting Nov. 28 after an artillery attack by North Korea this week. The won weakened 1.9 percent, poised for a third straight weekly decline.
"The same two themes, peripheral Europe and Korea, continue to drive the negative sentiment," RBC Capital Markets analysts led by Nick Chamie said in an emerging-markets report today, adding that more selling pressure came from "further talk of an imminent Chinese rate hike."
OTP Bank Nyrt., Hungary's largest lender, slid as much as 5.6 percent. The forint depreciated 0.9 percent against the euro and 1.8 percent versus the dollar.
Hungary Sell Recommendation
The Hungarian government's plans to shift private pension- fund assets to the state is causing concern in the European Commission, Bruxinfo news website reported, citing spokesman Amadeu Altafaj.
Hungarian assets should be sold by investors given the "complete unpredictability" of the government, Simon Quijano-Evans, the Vienna-based head of emerging-market strategy at Credit Agricole Cheuvreux SA, said in an e-mailed note.
Concerns Portugal or Spain may join Ireland in seeking a bailout from the European Union and the International Monetary Fund further darkened investor sentiment.
Brazil's central bank will raise the benchmark rate to 12.25 percent from 10.75 percent by April to contain inflation, Bank of America Corp. said. Bank of America previously forecast policy makers would hold the rate at 10.75 percent through 2011.
Turkey's ISE National 100 index slid 1.5 percent, down more than 8 percent since its all-time high reached on Nov. 9.
Poland's WIG20 Index lost 1 percent and Russia's Micex Index fell 0.3 percent.
The zloty slid 1.4 percent against the euro and 2.3 percent versus the dollar. The rand lost 1.6 percent.
Oil fell as much as 1.3 percent to $82.78 a barrel and copper slid 1.2 percent in London trading. Gold lost as much as 1.8 percent.
Indonesia, India
The difference between the yield investors demand to hold emerging-market bonds and U.S. Treasuries widened 5 basis points to 252, according to the JPMorgan Chase & Co. EMBI+ Index.
Indonesia's Jakarta Composite Index fell 1.6 percent and The Philippine Stock Exchange Index slumped 1.1 percent. India's Sensitive Index, or Sensex, sank 0.9 percent.
The Shanghai gauge as of yesterday had retreated 8.3 percent from an almost seven-month high reached on Nov. 8 on concern accelerated monetary tightening will crimp economic growth. The central bank last week ordered banks to set aside larger reserves for the second time in two weeks after raising interest rates in October, the first increase since 2007.

I'm writing a letter to Whole Foods because of their signage for no concealed carry weapons allowed. I have only seen this signage at their one location. Does this sound okay?
I am sad to say I will no longer purchase items from your store location. I noticed that your store is posted with a "No Concealed Carry" sign. This means that law abiding citizens that have gone through the training to get their concealed carry permit are not welcomed in your store.
I do know that your company is for the Freedom of Speech but you are discriminating against another right which is the "Right to Bear Arms". When one right is destroyed the next are soon to follow.
Such signage does not deter criminals from carry weapons into your store. The signage does however not allow a law abiding citizen to protect his/her family from such criminals if need be.
I do understand that you are a private business and have the right to post such signage. Unfortunately, my friends and family will not do business with a company that does not honor our God given right to self defense. I will also advise other concealed carry permit holders of this policy.
Thank you,

You may want to let them know how much you spent with them in the past, so they can put a dollar value on what this sign is costing them.

Whole Foods is an expensive place to shop. Each person spends at least $100 when they shop there. I go to the one in Bellevue WA sometimes to get some organic producs and imported spices and teas. I haven't seen a sign there yet but then again I haven't visited them for months.

Emma Roberts
Emma Stone in Rag & Bone Skinny Jeans
Emma Stone was photographed while on set filming a scene for her movie, La La Land in Los Angeles. She stars in the film with Ryan Gosling.
Emma wore a pair of Rag & Bone dark wash skinny jeans with a light wash chambray shirt and black flats. If I didn't know these were images from the set, I would think that these clothes were Emma's! She is a big fan of Rag & Bone off set and we tend to see her out in the brand quite frequently, I wonder if the wardrobe department drew some inspiration from Emma's own style. Buy Rag & Bone online at Shopbop.com.
Emma Roberts in J Brand Demi Patched Pocket Flares in Ashbury
Photographed after leaving dinner in Los Angles, Emma Roberts wore a pair of J Brand Demi Patched Pocket flares in Ashbury, with a green sleeveless tank and leopard print heels.
Emma has quite a collection of jeans but I am glad to see her out in a pair of flares. We usually see her in skinny styles but I think these look great on her, they're very flattering without overwhelming her frame. You can buy J Brand online from Shopbop.com.
Emma Roberts in Black Orchid Noah Mid Rise Super Skinny in Groovy Baby
Emma Roberts was spotted on a stroll the next morning with boyfriend Evan Peters after attending the Met Ball in New York. The actress wore a pair of the Black Orchid Noah Mid Rise Super Skinny in Groovy Baby with a pair of slip-on sneakers.
We haven't seen Emma in Black Orchid in quite a while. She has stated that they are one of her favorite brands ever, so I am looking forward to seeing what other new styles we will be seeing her in. I can definitely see her wearing their short overalls when the summer hits. You can click here to purchase these jeans from REVOLVE for $189.

Emma Roberts in MOTHER The Looker Ankle Fray in Wicked Games
Emma Roberts was spotted on a stroll with boyfriend Evan Peters in New York. For the walk, the actress wore The Looker Ankle Fray in Wicked Games by MOTHER with some high-top Chucks and a leather jacket.
I am happy that MOTHER has kept their ankle fray style as a core style the past few seasons and I hope that it carries on to future seasons. They are one of the brands that have gotten the style right and I just love the variety that they offer in the cut, whether it be the many washes or with an ankle zip. It is definitely a style that is a favorite of mine. You can click here to purchase MOTHER from SHOPBOP.

I'm setting up my network to support IPv6. I have static IPv6 addresses assigned to each interface of my router, and radvd advertising different prefixes on each interface. The next step would be to get my dnscache (from djbdns) working on IPv6. Said dnscache has fefe's IPv6 patch applied, so I assume it should work with IPv6. However, I can't find any documentation online on how to make the patched dnscache listen on IPv6.
How do I configure tinydns and dnscache to listen on IPv6 too?

Nothing's Easy for New Orleans Flood Control
By JON NORDHEIMER
Published: April 30, 2002
NEW ORLEANS— Caught between the Mississippi and the long shoreline of Lake Pontchartrain, this low-lying city has long depended on levees and luck.
Now engineers say those are not enough to protect New Orleans, much of it below sea level, from a devastating flood that could threaten it if a storm surge from a powerful hurricane out of the Gulf of Mexico propelled a wall of water into the lake and the city.
That event could place vast sections under 20 feet or more of water, engineers and scientists say, with worst-case computer predictions showing death tolls in the tens of thousands with many more people trapped by high water that has no natural drainage outlets.
''There's no way to minimize the amount of devastation that could take place under such circumstances,'' warned Walter S. Maestri, director of emergency management of Jefferson Parish, a suburban region with 455,000 residents on the city's western and southern sides.
Perhaps the surest protection is building up the coastal marshes that lie between New Orleans and the sea and that have been eroding at high rates. But restoration will require time, a huge effort and prohibitive sums of money, perhaps $14 billion, according to a study by a panel from federal and state agencies, universities and business.
Engineers are considering other ways to protect the heart of the city and provide an island of refuge in the French Quarter and government centers. Though such approaches are less expensive, they come with their own problems. One plan involves walling off an area to keep out water. But where would the wall be built and who would benefit from it?
Many residents give little thought to such matters, counting on the knowledge that New Orleans has escaped hurricane disaster in the past.
The most nervous people are those paid to worry about such things, like Dr. Joseph N. Suhayda, director of the Louisiana Water Resources Research Institute at Louisiana State University. Like other coastal researchers, he has been using the latest geological and meteorological data to refine computer models of how different storms would damage the city.
On a bright spring day with fair skies and no trace of the sultry air that will dominate the weather in the months ahead, Dr. Suhayda and a few colleagues drove city streets 1,000 yards from levees that hold back Lake Pontchartrain.
At New York Avenue, near the lakefront campus of the University of New Orleans, the car stopped, and the engineer walked over and unfolded a wood measuring stick to its 25-foot length. He planted one end on the pavement and raised it until it was vertical. The other end poked into the sky well above a corner light pole, but it was still well beneath the level of a concrete wall that rose on top of a grassy slope 100 feet away.
''Behind that,'' Dr. Suhayda said, indicating the wall, ''is a canal that runs into Lake Pontchartrain. Its surface is roughly about the same as the lake's surface.''
In a hypothetical situation projected by his computers, Dr. Suhayda continued, a slow-moving Category 4 hurricane, with winds up to 155 miles an hour, or a Category 5 hurricane with even stronger winds could leave water 30 feet deep on this neighborhood street, which is more than five feet below sea level. Though Category 5 hurricanes are very rare, Camille in 1969 devastated Pass Christian, Miss., just 50 miles east of New Orleans, and killed scores of residents with winds that exceeded 200 miles an hour and a 35-foot storm surge.
In most areas vulnerable to hurricanes, the water would drain away quickly. That is not the case here.
So city planners and engineers continue to work on ways to improve an evacuation plan for the 1.3 million residents in the metropolitan region and to soften a storm's blow. Most long-term projects intended to blunt a hurricane involve slowing the loss of marshlands. One method calls for additional control gates to let the Mississippi pour sediment-rich water into surrounding lands, a process that would eventually raise or at least maintain their elevation.
Other proposals are to rebuild eroded offshore barrier islands, erect a wall of levees across much of the lower delta, plug the dredged containership channel that gives the Gulf of Mexico waters easy access to the vulnerable eastern shore of Lake Pontchartrain and help defend that shore with higher flood gates.
Perhaps the most unconventional is the ''community haven'' concept advanced by Dr. Suhayda and others in the belief that radical remedies may be necessary to soften a knockout punch by nature. More theory than an organized campaign, it envisions a two-story-high wall with flood gates at crucial intersections to seal off the southern part of the city from a bend in the river at the French Quarter to another one eight miles west.
If the rest of the city flooded, Dr. Suhayda said, the ''island'' between the wall and the river's levees could become a refuge for thousands of residents fleeing their homes, as well as preserving the cultural and government center.

I just installed Multisite for 2 sites. From my admin panel, if I switch to the primary site dashboard, it's fine and it still says "My Sites" at the top. But when I switch to the secondary site, I get to the dashboard for that site, but now there is nothing at the top to allow my to go back to the primary site. Also, everytime I go to the secondary site dashboard, it makes me login again.
How do I make it easier to switch between dashboards? I am the super admin and admin on both sites

Rabindranath Tagore
Leave This - Poem by Rabindranath Tagore
Leave this chanting and singing and telling of beads!
Whom dost thou worship in this lonely dark corner of a temple with doors all shut?
Open thine eyes and see thy God is not before thee!
He is there where the tiller is tilling the hard ground
and where the pathmaker is breaking stones.
He is with them in sun and in shower,
and his garment is covered with dust.
Put off thy holy mantle and even like him come down on the dusty soil!
Where is this deliverance to be found?
Our master himself has joyfully taken upon him the bonds of creation;
he is bound with us all for ever.
Come out of thy meditations and leave aside thy flowers and incense!
What harm is there if thy clothes become tattered and stained?
Meet him and stand by him in toil and in sweat of thy brow.

if you look at me
you see what i really am
i stand
i stumble
on every second step
i get up again
you say i am strong
you say i don't give up'
you say i have the courage to stand
i disagree...
i may stand
not because i feel like i haveto
i may get up again
not because i have the courage to do it
i'm afraid..
i get up again
because i'm scared of being down too long
i stand
because i'm scared of losing
i am wounded
i am bleeding
beaten to death
i still stand
not because i'm strong
it's because i'm weak
too scared to give up
beaten, bleeding
broken, bleeding
wounded, bleeding
i've been hit to ground
i didn't dodge
even if i could have
i will not dodge
i will stand
i will wait to get hit
i will get up again
just to get hit down again
no.. i'm not strong
just scared
of giving up...
i like this. people always think im strong and not scared of anything but if they would just actually look, like really look, at me they'd see a person who's just running scared. I dont get up because im strong i get b/c staying down is more dangerous, when im up i can roll with the blows and run. . .Im not funny,perfect, or trying to tease you im protecting myself, to be open is be...vulnerable. im scared to let down my wall, im scared to drown in those dark unknown waters. I cry myself to sleep when something gets through my wall, sneeks up me, and presents me with...life? love? When someones see's me behind mu wall i bluff and smile, when the turn their back for a second i run as fast as I possibly can. to be open is to be vulnerable, that scares me.
Sorry bout that ^, fingers kept just kept moving

Rebecca Onie, CEO of Health Leads, Announced as Speaker at MGH Institute 2013 Commencement
Rebecca Onie, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Health Leads, will deliver the keynote address at MGH Institute of Health Professions' 2013 Commencement on Thursday, May 9, 2013.
As a sophomore at Harvard University in 1996, Ms. Onie and Dr. Barry Zuckerman at Boston Medical Center co-founded what was originally called Project HEALTH. After serving as the organization'
Ms. Onie also clerked for the Honorable Diane P. Wood of the U.S. District Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, and was an associate at Miner, Barnhill & Galland P.C., a civil rights and community economic development firm. During this time, she co-chaired Health Leads' Board of Directors.
In 2006, she returned as CEO of Health Leads, which now operates in Boston, Baltimore, Chicago, New York, Providence, and Washington, D.C. Last year, Health Leads' corps of nearly 1,000 college volunteers assisted nearly 9,000 low-income patients and their families in accessing food, heat, employment, and other basic resources they need to be healthy. In 2009, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation named Health Leads a Vulnerable Populations Portfolio grantee, investing $2 million to support its work.
Ms. Onie is a World Economic Forum Young Global Leader and a U.S. Ashoka Fellow. She received the John F. Kennedy New Frontier Award in 2009, honoring Americans under the age of 40 whose commitment to service is changing their communities and the country; Harvard's Jane Rainie Opel '50 Young Alumna Award in 2008 for outstanding contributions to the advancement of women; and the Do Something Brick Award for Community Leadership in 1999, for dynamic young people under the age of thirty with the passion and drive to improve their communities.
She is a member of the Young Presidents' Organization and the Mayo Clinic Center for Innovation's External Advisory Council.
In 2009, Ms. Onie was honored to receive a MacArthur Fellowship, for "individuals who have shown extraordinary originality and dedication in their creative pursuits and a marked capacity for self-direction."
Ms. Onie graduated from Harvard University in 1998, and from Harvard Law School in 2003.

How do you play online
im new to this but i love star wars could some give me info how to play online and if you have to pay and if how much
no fee needed
You can play using the awful gamespy arcade tool, which will probably come with the game. Its free to use and probably one of the worst things I have seen since Star Wars Galaxies.
But, thats what is being used. There will be 1v1, 2v2, 3v3, 4v4 skirmish modes, which can be fought on either land or space, together with a Galactic conquest mode which will only be 1v1. There is no monthly fee, although gamespy do charge a monthly fee IF you decide to subscribe which means you wont get adverts thrown at you during the middle of combat, as has happened to me.
Delphi or Torpid said that we will not use GameSpy Arcade, but they used GameSpy engine behind the scenes.......well, if you can see any difference apart from the fact that we won't have to open a separate application, please tell me :(
You don't have to use Gamespy. From what I read of the dev chats they said the game features its own online room. Just connect straight from the game and use the games own online room if you don't like gamespy. Personally, I don't have a problem with gamespy but tend to use the online service provided with a game anyway since it's quicker.
Dawn of war has the same useless set up. Its still powered by gamespy and the problems are a real pain. Once the game is up, I might consider setting up a special online tech area because from my own personal and current experiences, we might need it.
I could swear I remember reading somewhere that it was similiar to BF2 or Generals...
Edit- I went back to try to find this quote and its in the xfire Dev chat-
AN awnser for your question is in those pics :

Start the next-of-KIN jokes -- now!
In February of 2008, Microsoft acquired the maker of the Sidekick, Danger Inc., for $500 million dollars and rolled the company into its Premium Mobile Experiences division, led by Roz Ho. The Sidekick retained a dedicated following after the merger despite some hiccups along the way. Twenty-six months after the acquisition, Microsoft unveiled the KIN One and KIN Two devices which would launch in May. The devices were backed by a huge and mildly controversial marketing push aimed at the young, hip social-networking addict niche. Reviews were generally negative and often cited needless complexity, software that was lacking basic functions and no support for third party applications. The devices ran a fork of Windows Phone 7, Microsoft's rewrite of their aging mobile operating system that had been rapidly losing ground to RIM, Apple and Google. Just seven weeks after launch, the KIN is dead. Engadget has some insight into the failure and the subsequent shake-up at Microsoft.
