Unsecured Personal Loans After Bankruptcy- Lender For hassle Free Cash Online
Consult from a online financial adviser service which can get help you to find a best lender online which can provide you cash even you are a bankrupt.
Unsecured personal loans after bankruptcy are characterized by:
Available without collateral- the lenders who give out these loans do not require any valuable asset from the applicant for them to release the funds. This is quite risky since the lender is less likely to recover the amount that was given out if the borrower is unable to service his loan. This is why these loans come with some disadvantageous features like:
• Only limited amounts are offered
• They have very strict terms and reduced repayment periods
• They attract very high interests
Available even with bad credit- filing for bankruptcy greatly reduces the credit scores of the involved individual and this is termed as bad credit. People with low credit scores can also qualify for unsecured personal loans after bankruptcy as long as they portray capabilities of repaying the amount to be given out. Such people can also improve their credit scores using these loans by servicing them in time and observing all the terms that were given out on these loans.
Very expensive- this is mostly due to the high interest rates given out on unsecured personal loans after bankruptcy. The lenders offer high interest rates as one measure of reducing the chances of losing cash to people who had earlier on filed for bankruptcy. Taking time to find some lower interest rates can really assist in keeping down the overall repayment amount. Check out a number of quotes from various lenders and pick one that reflects some relatively lower interest rates.
Be aware of lending scams
Since qualifying for credit financing after bankruptcy can be stressing, some people take advantage of this to extort money from people struggling with such. Such individuals will pretend that they can offer unsecured personal loans after bankruptcy, charge some fees and then disappear. One should ensure that you get into a deal with legitimate lenders by consulting your friends or by going through reviews in their websites.

Top news snapshots from the week ending on May 24, 2013.
RICK: Good speech Bill just left off nearly Hillary's entire real record. There is virtually no place on God's green earth that is better off because of her. His most truthful statement was "This woman has never been satisfied...." He also failed to mention ANYTHING about the Clinton Foundation. How could he leave out his family's "crowning achievement"? The one that does sooo much good for humanity by giving a huuuge 10% of the money to charity Over 4 billion dollars has come through the Clinton Foundation and it, supposedly, has done so many "great things" for millions of people around the world and Billy doesn't even mention it? There are 100s thousands that are dead because of her and Obama. Libya, Iraq, Africa, Russia, Asia, Iran, and countless other places that are worse off because of her. It's like watching Bill Cosby now a days. In the back of your mind you keep thinking of him as a sexual predator. The whole time Bill was speaking, I couldn't get the image of "the cigar" out of my head. Yuck! I wonder if Monica Lewinsky felt more Cuban after her encounter with Bill in the Oval Office. I didn't know the Clinton's new Reality show "The Grifters" was on last night? Clinton croaked like Paul Simon. His voice doesn't sound strong at all. Sounds like the partying on his registered sex offender pal Jeffrey Epsteins' island has taken its toll.

France Prior to the Revolution
Perhaps one of the most interesting of France's many time periods happened just before its revolution. By examining both the social and economic structures used in France at this time, it was easy to see that a revolution was fast approaching. Not only that, but independence was sparked in France by thirteen tiny American colonies, which led many French to believe that it could happen also to them.
Social Classes
France was, in the times before its revolution, using an outdated caste system. In this system the three distinct estates, or social classes, were made up of clergy, the first estate, nobles, the second estate, and the common people, the third estate.
The first estate was the smallest, occupying only .5% of the population. Despite such small numbers, the clergy owned nearly 10% of the land, a figure grossly larger than it should have been for so many men and women who took vows of poverty. While many rural priests were just as poor as their congregations, the majority of peasants began to disdain the church for its extravagance and its taxes. This was the first estate and its way of functioning.
The second estate was made up of 1.5% of the French population. It was probably the richest class, due to its right to tax local peasants and merchants, yet not pay any taxes to the king. This class, in some figures, owned nearly 40% of the land, which was also a very disporportional figure based on population. Many in the second estate began to lose loyalty towards the king in this time because of his repeated attempts towards taxation and his "unenlightened" way of conducting national affairs. It is for this reason that during the revolution, many nobles called for the radical changes proposed by the third estate.
The third estate is perhaps the most interesting class due to the fact that it was really the place the revolution began. Making up nearly 98% of the poulation, the third estate was comprised of mainly peasant farmers, but also included anyone from factory workers to merchants to artaisans to servants. In and around this time period, the third estate owned only 50% of the land. This of course led to an overall very depressing poverty which, no matter how hard they tried, they could not escape due to the first and second estates brutal taxes. As it was put by beloved French Ambassador Thomas Jefferson "the people are illy clothed. Perhaps they havee put on their worst clothes at the moment as it is raining. But I observe women and children carrying heavey burthens and labouring with the hoe. This is an unequivocal indication of extreme poverty."
The Action Begins
Despite the social unrest caused by the outdated social classes, the people of France would only begin to truly speak of rebellion during the reign of Louis XIV. Due to years of deficit spending, or using more money than the government brought in, France began to accumulate a massive debt. Louis XIV's extravagance, when added to the cost of wars and inflation, began to cause the economy to crumble.
This really became a problem in the mid 1780's when bad harvests sent food prices soaring, creating hunger for most of the third estate. The riots inevitably began among peasants who demanded food. In the country members of the third estate began attaching noble's homes. Throughout this time it became increasingly apparent that the king would need to do something, anything, to help his people.
Louis XIV's grandson, Louis XVI, was perhaps not the best ruler for pre-revolutionary France. While he meant well and generally strove to help his people, he was indecisive and easily intimidated. In order to help him act, the king elected Jacques Necker, one of the finest financial masterminds in France, to be his main adviser. Necker began almost immediately making reforms to the government and to the many laws that dampened the effectiveness of France's colony. It was only after he proposed a tax to the First and Second Estates that he was removed from the king's service.
Unable to decide what the best course of action would be without his chief advisor, Louis XVI finally drove the final nail into pre-revolutionary France's coffin by calling together the Estates general for the first time in almost 150 years.
The Estates General
In May of 1789, Louis XVI called to order the meeting of the Estates General in Versailles. The Estates General was a meeting in which all three of the estates got together and voted on issues. Members of every estate brought to the meeting many complaints, but the most common included fairer taxes, freedom of speech, and most importantly bread. Other complaints demanded the right to kill animals destroying peasants, crops, and that years of hard work allow for some sort of reward.
Last, but certainly not least of the issues, was the complaints over the many social classes. The Third Estate in particular was tired of being thrown around and demanded some rights in the law and government. This desire led to the next chapter, the Tennis Court Oath.
Tired of wasting time in a political staring contest, delegates of the Third Estate took a radical step towards reform. Calling themselves the National Assembly, they claimed to represent the people of France and began to draft a new Constitution. The National Assembly then invited all members of the other estates to help them and many took them up on their offer.
A few days later, under order of the king, the hall where the new constitution was being written was locked. Believing that the king intended to send them home, the Third Estate and their political allies took a vow, swearing not to leave or disband until a constitution was written. They called this the Tennis Court Oath. Finally, unable to cope with the pressure forced upon him, Louis XVI grudgingly accepted the Constitution of France.
It Begins
On July 14, news of an occupation force marching into Paris was sweeping the city. Distraught over the thought, nearly 1000 Parisians assembled and began to try to procure fire arms. Finding the Bastille, a medieval prison now used to hold political prisoners; the crowd turned into a full scale riot and stormed the prison. After killing the commander and procuring the needed firearms, the people of Paris were ready to fight anything the king sent their way.
When he heard about the attack, Louis XVI asked "Is it a revolt?" "No sire," said a nearby noble, "It is a revolution."

Some argue that same-sex marriage is not an equal rights issue because, where same-sex marriage is illegal, heterosexuals and homosexuals have the exact same right to marry—i.e., the right to marry one adult of the opposite sex. I dispute this argument by pointing out that while societies that prohibit same-sex marriage equally permit individual heterosexuals and homosexuals to marry one adult of the opposite sex, same-sex couples in such societies are denied an important right that opposite-sex couples enjoy—i.e., the right to marry. I argue that the right to marry is fundamentally, not an individual right, but a couple's collective right, analogous to assembly rights.

The Scripps Research Institute and Vanderbilt University have established the Human Chemical Sciences Institute to advance science at the interface of chemistry and medicine. Special emphasis will be devoted to the areas of drug discovery, personalized medicine, and metabolomics. Within metabolomics the focus will be on the study of small molecule metabolites that could lead to diagnostic and therapeutic biomarkers.
The Human Chemical Sciences Institute will encompass research and training activities at Scripps Research on its San Diego and Jupiter, FL, campuses, and at the Vanderbilt Institute for Chemical Biology (VICB) and Vanderbilt University School of Medicine in Nashville, TN. It will combine Scripps Research's expertise in synthetic and bioorganic chemistry and Vanderbilt's background in drug discovery, genomics, bioinformatics, and medical systems innovation. Seed funding from both Scripps Research and Vanderbilt will be used to promote cross-institutional and cross-disciplinary research partnerships that capitalize upon these strengths.
"The chemical sciences provide the basis for current understanding of human physiology, pharmacology, and drug discovery," says Scripps Research president, Richard A. Lerner, M.D. "Yet there remains a gulf between academic research in chemistry and medical practice. The time is right for a new initiative that seeks to accelerate the understanding of human chemistry in health and disease."
Jeffrey Balser, M.D., Ph.D., vice chancellor for health affairs and dean of Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, adds, "The goal of the Human Chemical Sciences Institute is to impact medical care through a chemistry-focused view of the human metabolic state, disease, and the effects of treatment."

Denny's rolls out its new 16-item value menu
Published: Thursday, April 1, 2010 at 8:13 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, April 1, 2010 at 8:13 p.m.
Two, four, six and eight are numbers Denny's Corp. hopes its customers will appreciate.
The Spartanburg, S.C. -based family dining chain said Thursday it will roll out its new 16-item value menu $2 $4 $6 $8 on Saturday.
The first-ever value menu for Denny's aims to win back the hearts and stomachs of diners from fast food chains with a variety of affordable meal choices served around the clock.
Denny's will announce the promotion nationwide with four television commercials that will air during the NCAA Men's College Basketball tournament.
"This is a first for Denny's and it redefines value for table service restaurants," said Nelson Marchioli, president and CEO of Denny's. "I think this is a game-changer, moving customers beyond the idea that fast food is their only affordable option."
He said the launch of the new menu was a result of successful tests in a limited number of markets where the menu was unveiled beginning on Dec. 26.
Marchioli said the initial response to the menu was "very positive."
"The recession has been tough on our customers," he said. "We believe $2 $4 $6 $8 will help give our customers the value they deserve any time of day or night."

Glass Break Detectors
Burglars can't walk through walls, but they can certainly break through glass. Quite often, a criminal will gain entry to a home by smashing through a window, a sliding glass door, or a glass panel on an entrance door. Your door and window contact will sometimes trigger your alarm, but a glass break detector can offer an additional invaluable level of protection. HomeSecurityStore.com is pleased to offer an extensive array of affordable glass break detectors for your home.
Affordable Glass Break Detectors
From glass break detectors to shock detectors, we have the tools you need to take your home security system to the next level. When combined with motion sensors and door and window contacts, these simple devices can ensure that no human being with a pulse will ever slip past your alarm undetected. Our glass break detectors are available in a variety of configurations to suit different homes and needs, so be sure to browse the full selection to get a feel for what's available. The majority of these devices are acoustic, and work by detecting the characteristic sounds of breaking glass.

Hi all,
This is just a brief post to let you all know that we have an upcoming campaign! This year we'll be flying from ESRANGE again in Kiruna Sweden. We've got almost everything packed and sent, tickets booked, and radar time scheduled. We also will have students from the University of Huston working with us again and hopefully helping to get some wonderful photos!
Stay tuned for more info as we get closer to our expected first launch date, Aug. 10th 2016.
Happy flying!
Alexa and the BARREL team.
BARREL — Radiation Belt Science with Balloons
BARREL (Balloon Array for Radiation belt Relativistic Electron Losses) is a multiple-balloon investigation that will study Earth's Radiation Belts. Atmospheric losses of relativistic electrons play an important role in radiation belt dynamics; precipitation into the atmosphere may even completely deplete the radiation belts in some cases. BARREL is the first NASA Living With a Star Geospace Mission of Opportunity, and will support NASA's RBSP (Radiation Belt Storm Probes) mission.

New status update from the PI
BARREL Status Report #12
August 22, 2015
Payload 3E was launched on Friday, August 21 at 0705 UT. The balloon survived the night and is currently back up at 36 km altitude. It's currently drifting slowly towards the border with Finland so will likely be terminated later today.
We have one more launch planned for the campaign. Right now, it looks like Tuesday will be the next opportunity.

Video of a launch
... Well part of a launch.
We finally got some good video's of a launch! Thanks to Greg's go pro you can see some of the inflation and the release of the payload 3C launch. We're working on getting the video up for the balloon floating away as well.
Stay tuned.
Stay tuned.

Status update from the PI
BARREL Status Report #11
August 19, 2015
Payload 3C was terminated on August 18 at 0333 UT. As expected, the balloon started to drop in altitude after sunset. As the sun rose a few hours later, it began to heat the balloon. We hoped the balloon would rise again as happened during our late-season Antarctic flights. It was a real nail-biter, but alas, the balloon was low enough that the cooling due to the surrounding air won the battle over solar heating; it continued to sink and had to be cut down. Thanks to the Esrange ops team for giving it a fair chance to pull through! It was a bit heartbreaking to see the balloon come down but I will say that it was a fantastic flight and our longest yet. The payload came down very close to Kiruna about 2 km from a road, so was recovered in excellent condition today.
Payload 3D was launched this morning, August 19 at 6:02 UT. Unfortunately, the balloon was drifting too far north and close to a large town in Norway. So, it was terminated at 12:50 UT. Despite the short flight, very intense precipitation was detected for several hours.
The next launch attempt is planned for Friday morning.

Status report from the PI
BARREL Status Report #10
August 17, 2015
The third BARREL payload (3C) was launched today at roughly 1208 UT. Just a reminder that you can track the payload progress at the BARREL SOC website:
Click on "Maps" to see the payload track (shown in green - the previous flights are in blue and red). The Data Browser allows you to plot real-time summary data if you're interested.
Geomagnetic activity has been increasing over the last few days and we are currently experiencing a moderate geomagnetic storm. The payload is not following the predicted trajectory but is moving relatively slowly for now so we are hoping for a flight at least as long as the previous one (fingers crossed!).
Also, you may have noticed that I didn't send out a status report for the past few days. The weather was not favorable for a launch yesterday so there was nothing to report, and I didn't think you needed me filling up your inbox with nonsense. Since we are only launching every few days, I will only send out status reports when there is something to report.

The second BARREL payload (3B) was launched today at 04:30 UT. Shortly after the balloon reached float altitude, geomagnetic activity increased (Kp=4) and we began to detect precipitation. Later in the day, we also captured another excellent conjunction with the Van Allen Probes. We're excited to look at the data more closely after the CDF files are processed!
The payload is currently on its way down. It was terminated at 17:18 UT because it was starting to drift towards the mountains. This payload carried one of Univ. of Houston's student piggyback experiments. Their data are all recorded on board so we are anxious to recover this payload!
We are targeting the next Van Allen conjunction on August 16 for our next launch. As always, launch will depend on surface conditions. But, the upper level winds are slowing down and should be favorable for even longer flights.

First off this week, I want to thank everyone who helped make the Beacon's inaugural Outdoor Living Show a success this past Saturday at Shallotte Middle School. I hope all who attended enjoyed themselves and learned more about some of the local businesses and civic organizations that support our community — and maybe gained inspiration for home improvements and to get involved in the groups that make Brunswick County great.
Last week in the North Carolina House of Representatives, we continued to negotiate the 2015-17 state budget, we passed a bill to prevent stalking by GPS and we sent a bill to move the 2016 presidential primary date bill to a conference committee.
As the Raleigh weather turned hot again last week, the budget negotiations also heated up. The appropriations committees in charge of the different parts of the budget were addressing their final provisions and the finance chairmen were still discussing the tax package.

Until Aug. 26, the Committee to Protect Journalists said, it counted 39 deaths of journalists around the world in 2015 in countries like Syria, Yemen and France.
But last Wednesday morning, the people working at WDBJ-TV experienced the horror of seeing two of their coworkers shot to death and a woman seriously injured on live television outside Smith Mountain Lake, Va., near Roanoke.

This summer, I was most fortunate to accompany the Brunswick Community College (BCC) Economic and Workforce Development Team to a business roundtable at the Southport-Oak Island Chamber of Commerce.
Karen Sphar, the chamber's executive vice president, invited the college to discuss with local business and industry owners "how the community could foster a more entrepreneurial friendly atmosphere." There were more than 30 attendees.

Last week in the North Carolina House of Representatives, we passed an extension of the budget deadline of Aug. 31; we passed a bill to regulate Uber and other transportation network companies; we passed a bill to provide more directional highway signs; and we had a couple of high public officials visit Brunswick County.

North Carolina and South Carolina were once one — one colony that is — prior to our nation's independence. Sometime around the late 1600s or early 1700s — historians differ on exactly when — the two colonies separated. Then, when the United States was formed, they become two states. There has been a rivalry ever since.
Things were starting to get squirrelly in John Goss' backyard.
It was obvious the day Sammy, one of the black-and-gray fox squirrels that reside at Sandpiper Golf & Country Club, showed up at Goss' home overlooking the first hole of the community's Piper course.
"I started seeing the squirrel here, so I started putting peanuts in the yard," said the former U.S. Department of Defense employee, who has been retired for 20 years, the past 13 of them in Sunset Beach.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has announced the 2012 vehicles it will test, as it wraps up testing on its 2011 lineup. This year the government safety agency will test 74 vehicles from the 2012 model year: 42 passenger cars, 22 SUVs/crossovers, eight pickups and two minivans. NHTSA will test 35% more vehicles than it did in 2011, when it tested 55 vehicles.
Popular 2012 vehicles to be tested include the redesigned Hyundai Accent, Chevy Sonic, Nissan Versa, Toyota Camry, Ford Focus, Subaru Legacy, Honda CR-V and Volkswagen Passat. The Toyota Corolla, Ford Mustang and Jeep Grand Cherokee will also be tested. Novelties include the Scion iQ, Fiat 500, Nissan Juke and the Coda, Mitsubishi i and Ford Focus electric cars. NHTSA tested the Chevy Volt and Nissan Leaf this year.All the vehicles will be evaluated using new testing standards that took effect this year. NHTSA's composite scores are composed of a five-star rating for frontal, rollover and a combined side pole and barrier tests. The side pole test simulates a 20-mph side-impact crash into a 10-inch-diameter pole or tree at a 75-degree angle just behind the A-pillar on the driver's side.
Overall, the agency says the list of vehicles (and the carry-over vehicles it tested in 2011) will provide safety info for 81% of the 2012 model year vehicles by volume. About 92% of the 2012 fleet (by volume) will have rollover testing information. There are more than 300 vehicles on sale; luxury cars and exotics are rarely tested by NHTSA or the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
In its tests, NHTSA now makes an effort to point out additional safety features, such as lane departure warning and forward collision warning. The agency notes that the amount of vehicles with either safety option has jumped from 45 vehicles last year to 68 vehicles today. The most affordable vehicle that can be had with both is the 2012 Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain.
Continue reading below for the full list of vehicles selected for crash and rollover testing.

Hi there,
I love this plugin, and have used it across a number of sites - so, first off, thank you for your hard work!
I am having a problem getting the plugin to work on a non-profit site I am doing. It doesn't seem to render CSS or JS for some reason. I have my wp_footer in the footer.php file, and I am not seeing any errors in console. Could you please take a look and let me know if you can see what the problem is?
When I "preview" the shortcode, it previews fine on the backend, but it's not working on the front end.
Thanks so much!

Seriously, shoot until the threat was stopped.
This is a discussion on Scenario: "That Gun Ain't Loaded!" within the Carry & Defensive Scenarios forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; Originally Posted by denverd0n Seems to me that is exactly what mike1230 said. He was just a bit more verbose, which seems to me to ...
How's that for verbose?
J/K... I understand what you meant and what Mike meant.
All I was saying, is it doesn't matter what the guys feelings, ego, upbringing or any of that stuff was all about...
His intent was to rob me, at knife point, with a deadly weapon and he continued to place me in jeopardy by advancing on me while I have a loaded gun in my hand.
I have to interpret that as "He thinks he can take me!"

"The gun is the great equalizer... For it is the gun, that allows the meek to repel the monsters; Whom are bigger, stronger and without conscience, prey on those who without one, would surely perish."
Seriously, shoot until the threat was stopped.
It's not about the caliber you carry, it's about how you USE it.

However, I disagree with "If I draw, I shoot". For me it is:
If I draw, and the threat continues, then I shoot.
This is assuming I have enough time to assess things; obviously if the attack is vicious and fast, I might not have time to assess anything!
Just a couple of thoughts. On warning shots - I am not going to fire a shot without knowing where it is going. Into the sidewalk where will it go from there? Into the air where will it come down? Over the BG's shoulder what is back there that you can't see?
As for the situation. As you can see I carry a 10mm S&W. It always has one in the chamber. If someone approaches me, as in the situation, with a knife and makes a threat then when I pull the weapon says, "That gun ain't loaded." He obviously feels that my gun isn't loaded. I will take the opportunity to let him lay down until the feeling passes over. Whether that takes 2 COM and 1 head or more is not relevant. When there is no longer a threat he can lay down until the feeling passes over.
Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe. Albert Einstein
snip from Dwight55
Nahh, . . . this dude's visual warning is my right hand reaching, . . . and his auditory warning is the safety going off.
Now I'm not trying to be a smart butt here, but this does raise a question with me. For anyone in the know, does the safety 'snicking' off provide more of a deterrent that just the threat of the firearm itself. My GLOCK doesn't really have a 'snickable' safety, and there is one in the pipe so I can't rack the slide, but I do, from experience, KNOW that the click of a safety coming off, (a smg in the hands of a very young, non english speaking, uniformed border guard) REALLY gets your attention. BTW with a knife involved I believe I would have shot immediately too, but without being there...I have restrained myself before in a case where someone needed a severe thrashing.
sounds to me like "snick, BOOMBOOMBOOM" dial 911
Verbally warn him, if he advanced 2shots COM then one head shot if he was still a threat.
Lex et Libertas Semper Vigilo, Fortis, Paratus, et Fidelis!
"Not only do the people who put their lives on the line to protect the rest of us deserve better, we all deserve better than to have our own security undermined by those who undermine law enforcement." -Thomas Sowell
"A known street tough accosted him, pulling a knife and telling him that he was going to cut him.
This aquaintance pulled a 1911 and aimed it at him, verbally warning him to back off while putting distance between him and the threat.
The tough looked at it, stopped, and said, "That gun ain't loaded!" He then began advancing again."
We are not told the distance to the perp at either stage. Initially, one would be justified at preparing to shoot at least within 21' (Tueller rule-of thumb: however, the scenario does not suggest BG is charging, in which case a shot should be aborted - and was).
Once you have the drop on him, he temporarily stops advancing; he may then no longer have the Opportunity to imminently deliver on a deadly threat, depending on his distance (the Tueller drill does not address the distance within which a perp from standing can overrun a victim with presented firearm). So defensive shots may not yet be justified, in which case firm, loud, verbal warnings may be appropriate (as were given). The perp may back off when he sees you are unafraid, steadfast and unapproachable (I doubt BG would really believe "that gun ain't loaded", unless he concluded the lack of an immediate shot indicated it; he seems to be testing the victim's resolve, including upping the ante with a couple more steps [or he is crazy].)
At what proximity shooting IS justified depends on circumstances including at what point one can articulate fear of imminent injury or death, taking account of the fact that a shot person may function for a short but unpredictable period thereafter.
When that proximity is reached, one should shoot solely to stop the threat, and stop shooting when the threat is neutralized.
My points are, a shoot avoided is a battle won without cost, and an actual shoot had better be unassailable legally - I'm not sure shooting a slowly closing perp at 21 ft would be defensible in many jurisdictions.
Within what distance do others think shots are legally justified after the BG stops, and why (assuming there are no retreat options)?
Ah, the luxury of being an arm-chair analyst!
Seeking Knowledge, Hoping for Wisdom
As I recall my experience in CCW class we were instructed to never fire a warning shot, but only shoot to stop the threat. Once the threat was stopped call 911.
Colt 1911, XD 40,
Bang, bang to center mass. Bang Bang again if needed. Although I doubt it.
Alright, after all is said here is my opinion:
1. A bg with knife within 30 feet, you are gonna get cut.
2. Warning shots are for dead men and tv cowboys--I am not either of these.
3. The minute he says the gun isn't loaded....I'll be proving him wrong.
4. I don't draw from my holster until I am stopping the threat.
5. I'm curious why people think the bg may run away when he sees a gun and says it isn't loaded?
"All war is deception" --Sun Tzu
He would be stopped where he took his last step toward me..
With this thread coming back up, I went to google images and typed "knife wounds."
If someone comes anywhere near me, knife in hand and mouthing off, I'm drawing. If he turns and runs before my finger is on the trigger, he lives. If not, I am shooting.
No one is doing THAT to me or mine if I can do anything to stop it.

Since the spinoff of PSX from COP, PSX has outperformed COP by a wide margin, in terms of pps gains. After the spinoff, PSX immediately shot up and gained more than 100% of it's initial value. And, I must admit that I made a mistake and sold all my PSX shares the day after the spinoff. I used the proceeds from the sale to purchase more shares of COP.
However, it looks as though things have turned around for COP, in comparison to PSX, over the last six months. In March, PSX hit a high of $70 a share, but since then it has declined to $58 a share, a loss of 17%. Also, since March, COP has risen steadily from $58 to $67 a share, a gain of 19%.
Again, since the spinoff, PSX has outperformed COP in terms of pps gains. But COP is surely making up lost ground. Also, COP pays twice the dividend rate as PSX does, 4.2% to 2.1%.
My timing could have been a lot better if I'd had held on to PSX for a few months after the spinoff. I would have made more money. Hindsight is always 20/20.
But, in the long run, I feel that getting rid of PSX and buying more COP was the correct move for the long term future. I believe that the pps of PSX will stagnate for the foreseeable future, while pps for COP is just beginning to achieve significant gains over the next few years. COP has a much brighter future than PSX and it pays twice the dividends.
I still own both, but I agree the worm has turned as far as future performance. PSX will do just fine, but expect spectacular things out of COP. Brilliant move to sell off most of the lesser performing foreign holdings and concentrate on the shale oil growth in the U.S. Shell and Exxon appear to be behind the COP curve.

I'm trying this plugin and i see that the new registration page doesn't use the localisations of the wordpress core.
Can you use the same sentances that the original register page and use the localisation of wordpress core ?
And also, unfortunately, even on a subsite, the page says "get a user accounts on *name of the network*" instead of *name of the subsite*
And another problem, is that when i go on the wp-login page, if i clic on the register link, it redirect me to the main site instead of that new registration page.

I just setup a new server which will host a solr daemon. As it stands now the solr index is empty, but I have a php script available to pull data from a MySQL store and populate the solr index to facilitate my fulltext searching requirements.
So I'm wondering, is it possible to compile PHP to be command line only? It seems a waste to have to install apache just to get PHP to work.
-- Edit --
A little more clarification. When I run
make install on CentOS, the make attempts to add PHP footprint to /etc/httpd/conf. Is it ok to simply ignore this? Or is there a flag I can pass to ignore apache?

According to L'OCCITANE, one tube of this shea-infused hand cream is sold every three seconds around the world. As longtime fans, we've been contributing to this dizzying record—we whip it out whenever our hands are feeling dry. The nourishing formula has been scoring beauty awards for years. The best part? It has a velvety consistency and doesn't leave skin greasy.
L'Occitane's hand creams are the best! They absorb quickly and don't leave behind any greasy residue. Why only three stars, then? Because this is my least favorite scent of any of their hand creams. I've had the Verbena (very fresh and clean) and Cherry Princess (fruity and slightly floral) and enjoyed both of those, plus I've sampled other varieties before, but I just don't like how the 'basic' one smells. It reminds me of baby products, in kind of a bad, cloying way.3

GULF SHORES, Ala. (AP) - Rough seas and high winds have delayed
completion of the Gulf State Park Pier to at least the first of
The 1,520-foot, $17 million pier at Gulf Shores was expected to
be finished in March. But assistant park superintendent Trey Myers
says the contractor, LCI Inc. of Memphis, Tenn., has not been able
to work as many days as anticipated.
He says the firm has only been able to its crane barge out there
to work three or four times in the past month-and-a-half.
The pier's length will make it the longest fishing pier on the
Gulf Coast. It will be 20 feet wide and stand an average of 20 feet
off the water.

For people in Michigan, finding a well rounded ski resort can be a challenge. After riding many resorts in this state, I have found that you usually have to settle for only part of what you are hoping for.
Caberfae looks to be impressive, and by some standards, it is. This hill offers a few long runs, but these must be linked by other trails to get even 3/4 of a mile, and the rest of the runs seem to basically go straight down, and really start to get old after a few hours.
The terrain park barely exists. A few years ago, they hired a semi-professional park builder who actually turned out some great hits including a triple-hit step down, a spine, and a few rails. Miraculously, the owners must not have noticed the huge lines of people flocking to the park, and completely eliminated it the next year. A few friends and I actually went into the woods and pulled out the box to ride on until we got kicked off. Any intelligent resort owner knows that a huge number of skiers and riders are demanding park features. This year seems like they are picking up a little bit with the park, but they have a ways to go.
Another problem is uphill capacity, as Caberfae charges extremely low prices for tickets, which in turn crowds the four lifts that they have (three lifts monday thru friday) and generates lift lines that rival Cedar Point. A solution to this could be expansion of the huge acreage that was once serviced by the resort many years ago, but has since ceased to operate. I don't think I will still be alive by the time they decide to resurrect these old bowls. Until they do, it does make for good backcountry hits, until you get kicked out.
The buildings here are extremely dated, and I actually saw a plastic/visquine material shoved in the walls of one of the buildings, which had carpet that had to be 50 years old. The day lodge is an exception, which looks great inside and out. The food is somewhat pricey for the quality, but hey that's the story anywhere.
In all, the only thing that you might enjoy about Caberfae are the runs, if you can find out how to link them. Take Smiling Irishman, stay right, then cut hard left across easy street, and play around from there. The groomers are great, but you'd better be there 15 minutes early to catch them, because 34 runs get tracked fast. If you have the extra time and money, go check out Shanty Creek, Nub's or Boyne Highlands for comparison, and see what you like better, because those ones pretty much offer everything the Fae has but with a more comfortable lift ride to the top.
Also, The vertical drop is listed as 485 feet. If you feel skeptical about this claim, you should be. Download Google Earth and measure South Peak from top to bottom using the elevation profile, and let me know what you come up with. Maybe the owners were measuring down to sea level...

Re: Jack Dempsey advice on training
Neck muscles should be strong to absorb the shock of head punches. The best exercise for strengthening the neck muscles is the "bridge" (Figure 86A and B). Lie on your back on the mat. Lock your hands on your chest. Make a simple bridge by raising your body until it is supported by your feet and your head. Still in the simple bridge, roll back on your head until your forehead is touching the mat. Then return to the simple bridge, and then to your stretched-out position. Repeat the procedure several times.
You can also strengthen the neck muscles while you are standing. Turn the head from side to side, and on each turn stick out the chin as far as possible toward a shoulder.
There are many other exercises you can learn around the gymnasium that you can use if you decide to go into amateur or professional competition. But those I've given you are plenty to help you become a well-rounded s****per.
For example, you can develop strength in your arms and shoulders by using wall pulleys, and by doing "push-ups" from the floor. Some trainers do not approve of the pulleys or the push-ups. They believe those forms of exercise tend to make you muscle-bound. I approve of them, unless you already are heavily muscled in the shoulders and arms.
You can strengthen your hands outside the gymnasium by carrying with you a rubber handball and squeezing the ball for a couple of hours each day, first in one hand and then in the other. I advise that, if your hands are fragile; for strong durable hands are very important in fighting. Strong hands help your explosions and also help prevent bone-breaks.

Vitali calls out the gratest SNV....
WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko is still hopes to get it on with Russian Nikolai Valuev.
Vitali still believes in the possibility to converge with
: "I actually would have great pleasure in meeting with Valuev. But Nicholas still not decided his future: whether it will continue to box or for tormenting his injuries ,finally goes into politics ? I think that the fight against Valuev would attract much attention. And not only post-Soviet block. So if Nicholas is interesting, let them get in touch "- sums up the Ukrainian.
and latest on SNV... (google translation)
Russian boxer, former world champion Nikolay Valuev is going to go for two days in the Kemerovo region of the country in an expedition to search for Bigfoot.
Valuev will go in search of Bigfoot
This is the official site of the athlete.
The expedition will last two days - 15 and September 16.
"I'm going to Shoria Mountain because it is a very beautiful place, about which I've heard a lot, but never been there. I know a few natives there in the first place, of course, boxer George Arbachakova. Jura, by the way, told me about prediction about the appearance of shamans big man who will bring good fortune Mountain Shoria. It's nice that people think about me. pleasure was that I was invited to meet personally with local people and customs of this region. This interesting place with an ancient history and its special aura. there before still a strong tradition and rituals and it is very interesting. Mountain Shoria worthy to rank among the most unusual corners of the world "- said Valuev.
According to an athlete, he was always interested in the legend of the yeti.
"Now about the yeti. Search History Bigfoot has more than a dozen years. Evidence that the Yeti exists there before the Revolution. I was always interested in the topic. Especially, memories of the Roerich guardians of hidden caves - snow people. I belong to the category of people for which the better to see once than a thousand words. The expedition I'm going to make your own opinion at the expense of the existence of Bigfoot in the Mountain Shoria. Do I believe that we will come and find him? We're adults. This is about the same thing to go and find the Loch Ness monster at once or open Atlantis. Trying to find a snowman made serious scholars, and for a long time ", - admitted Valuev.
The athlete added that he wanted to see a snowman with my own eyes.
"In Kemerovo this year to host international conference on the topic, where scientists come from all over the world. Rather, smoke without fire. Definitely say that this phenomenon exists or not can not no one to date. I like a man used to really look at things, I'm going to see everything with my own eyes. Even in such a short time. After the expedition, I will gladly share his knowledge of snow people. then I'm going with my favorite camera and will photograph everything, "- he said.

I have a lot of jobs in jenkins and we have decided to make some wide ranging changes to all of them which will be very tedious to change through the UI. It would be much easier to edit them using scripts on the jenkins master machine but I'm not sure how to get jenkins to recognize changes to the the config.xml that haven't come through the UI or another api.
Is there a way to get jenkins to refresh job configurations from disk? Or a better way of mass editing jobs?

Just soliciting some general feedback...
Just soliciting some general feedback...
This plugin is simple but quite effective. I had never worked with Dropbox, but as a result of installing the plugin, I signed up and am really liking it. (Yes, I used your referral link -- you're welcome!) It's quite cool to click the backup button on the plugin page and almost instantly see the files downloading to my local computer (and knowing they're on Dropbox as well).
Now, I haven't had to put the restore procedure to the test, but just having the backup is reassuring.
So there are only 2 things I can think of that would improve the tool:
Really great work here -- simple and elegant, but does the job. Thanks!
-- abrupt
Thanks for feedback (and Dropbox referral sign up).
I will add a note about wp-config.php to the documentation. My recommendation is to back that up to Dropbox or S3 manually or maybe not at all. That's a pretty critical security issue that I'm treading lightly on ...
Scheduling is on the list, too.
As well as "time stamped" backups, meaning an option to have 7 daily, 4 weekly & 12 monthly backups available ...
I cannot get the content files zip to open as it says there Error 1 operation not permitted.
blitz999, this was most likely resolved a few revisions ago (I was able to reproduce it).
Please let me know if you try the plugin and again & whether or not the issue still occurs.
Hi there Paul, yes looking good now - all working. Thanks for letting me know.
One question, why does the the zip file contain another zip file inside? On the server I use the folder structure ends up about 20 folders deep.
It isn't a problem, just a lot of directory navigation!
The 'layers' have been peeled back a little .... now only the wp-content archive has the nested directory structure which actually mirrors the directory structure from your host -- this is done so that expanding the archive can actually restore to the right place ...
I'd love to see multisite support. The ability to backup and restore a single blog on multisite would be ideal -- especially to backup a single blog from one multisite installation and restore it into another multisite location. No plugin out there is doing it, so I'm sure it's fraught with danger and intrigue. :)
Advanced support for multisite backups and restoration would be an excellent Pro feature for which I'd gladly pay. (I've even set up a Google alert to monitor cyberspace for me so that I can know the moment a product is released to handle that sort of thing.)
Dropbox limits files to 300Mb. You could split the .zip or .tar.gz into multiple 300Mb chunks before uploading. At least, a filesize check in the uploader loop, to let you know if this was the issue or not.
It wasn't immediately apparent, but since it defaults to Dropbox my browser thought the email/password was for logging in and automatically filled it out with incorrect credentials. Maybe add a fieldset legend that says "Dropbox" and it'd be obvious. Not really important, as I figured it out a few seconds later, but thought a first-time user feedback would help in this case.
Scheduling would be great. I like wp-dbmanager and it has a way to add scheduling for 1 week for example. Of course, it's easy enough to use the curl method.
I would love to see a "manual backup"... so I can download a file directly.
Just tried out the plugin for the first time - a quick note...
The show/hide links for the instructions and plugin options do *not* seem to work on the latest versions of Chrome and Firefox. The plugin does work though - I was able to enter my user/pass/folder info and it backed up to Dropbox just fine. Am I missing additional options, or do those links just not work?
Mostly, I'd just like to be able to schedule backups so I can set it and forget it - so to speak. Is that in the current functionality or coming soon?

The service was impeccable. I never stayed in a Riu hotel before, but it really lives up to its 5 star reputation.
Food was good, lots of selection for breakfast, lunch & dinner. My only comments would be that the hot food could be hotter, knives could be sharper. A la cartes aren't too special, so if you miss them, don't worry about it. The Beach BBQ party and the Chef Seafood nights were excellent. I'm usually disappointed with meat/seafood dishes in the Caribbean, but it was surprisingly tasty here.
No late night station, which is disappointing. There is a fridge with sandwiches, nachos with cold cheese sauce and a microwave in the 24 hour bar. Really sucks for late night arrivals or snacking.
Its good for couples and families, I can't say I would recommend for singles..
We were there Dec 11-18 and it wasn't too crowded. Lots of beach chairs available on beach & pool area.
Airgun shooting and boogie boarding was free, and pretty fun.
I personally didn't take the bus to the city, but talked to those who have said it was easy to do, safe and they recommended it.
Definitely take a walk out to the market 15 minutes away. Prices are pretty much just as good as the market in the city.
Also, the massage place there... can't go wrong for $20CAD/hour!! I missed out on the restaurant there, but I've heard good things about it.
The money exchange is also better at the Golden Zone, but if you don't make your way out there, its not bad negotiating Canadian/American at the market... still better than the rates at the Hotel.
I'll definitely be back to Mazatlan!!

Stuck In An Elevator
At the ding of the elevator, two silver panels slide open. The Little Mermaid carefully wobbles in, making sure her slimy fins do not slither into the shaft. Her sea foam green eyes become enormous as she notices a flamboyant, red-haired man wearing a crushed velvet suit and pleather Beatle boots standing in the elevator. A small tuff of chest hair pops out of his white, ruffled shirt.
"There you are!" Austin Powers seductively says, grinning through his yellow popcorn seed teeth.
"Do I know you, Sir?" says Ariel in a high-pitched, timid voice.
"No, but that's where you are, you're there! My name is Austin Powers. Danger is my middle name. And who are you, baby?"
"My name is Ariel. Pleasure to meet you. I love it up here, out of those waters.

This morning on the steps of the federal courthouse in downtown Orlando, Congresswoman Corrine Brown held a press conference after filing a lawsuit against the Florida Supreme Court, decision that ruled her district in violation of the Fair District Act of 2010. The lawsuit aims to stop the current process underway to redraw the lines to meet requirements.
"It's not what a district looks like, or what it's shaped like, it's whether it has representative government." said Brown flanked by attorneys and supporters "The idea is that you are destroying civil rights in unacceptable."
The lawsuit includes Brown's own fifth district, which stretches from Jacksonville, down to Orlando, through African American communities located in Sanford and Eatonville. It also includes Congressional Districts 13 and 14, all which under the recently proposed new maps under consideration, could cause a "shake-up" which currently has incumbents and potential challengers in both considering alternative options for political survival.
Brown filed the suit on the 50th Anniversary of the Voting Rights Act. Points in the lawsuit include the Supreme Court's ruling diminishing the ability of black voters in the area to elect a representative of their choice, a violation of the VRA.
When asked how her lawsuit would effect her fellow Democratic incumbents and the absence of fellow party members standing with her on the matter, she concluded "This is not about me. It's about the people. And making sure they have someone at the table that represents them. We have people trying to take us out, and we're not going out, we're not going back!"

A construction crew's haste to speed up a Brighton Fifth Street condo project led to the Nov. 8 partial building collapse that buried three workers under a ton of rubble — and caused one of their deaths.
Department of Buildings officials said workers at the site near Oceanview Avenue began pouring concrete on the top floors before the concrete on the bottom floors had hardened, causing half of the building to buckle under its own weight and collapse at 2:30 pm.
Seconds later, concrete, steel beams and construction debris rained down on 54-year-old Ivan Lendel and two others, burying them. Firefighters pulled all three out of the debris after a short search, and rendered aid to two others, but Lendel suffered a heart attack and died at Coney Island Hospital on Tuesday evening.
"We believe that the [construction crew] may have started from the top and worked their way down," Buildings Commissioner Robert LiMandri told reporters. "In the coming days, we expect to take some action against some of the parties involved."
The city has slapped a stop-work order on the project and hit the contractor, SP&K Construction, with nine environmental control board violations. Investigators sent to the scene said a fence lining the site was defective and developers failed to install protective netting around the project. Management also failed to keep the site clean or store their equipment properly, said Buildings spokeswoman Jennifer Gilbert.
The city also ordered SP&K to hire an independent contractor to clean up the mountain of debris that was slated to become a five-story residential building that could hold 14 families, Gilbert explained.
"We still have forensic engineers out there investigating," she said. "They're also monitoring the progress of the cleanup."
SP&K Construction heads have refused to talk to reporters since the collapse.
City officials say building collapses like this are rare. Construction accidents are down by 30 percent this year, a city spokeswoman said, although she had no figures to back up that claim.
But the collapse did not come as a shock to some Brighton Beach residents, who claimed they knew something bad was going to happen on Brighton Fifth Street.
"I'm not surprised it fell," neighbor Irene Slabodina said. "All of these building have been going up a little too fast."
