""Great songs, great players, great live show! The Summoned is badass!""
""The Summoned playing live is explosive and forever; once they get you, you're theirs until they say it's over.""
"The Summoned are one of the greatest bands to work with today, Highly motivated, extremely talented, tons of energy on stage and knows how to get the crowd moving! They are very professional and true to what they do and still know how to have fun! If you have the chance to work with The Summoned I would do so, you will not regret it!"
"The Summoned new album If only minds could paint pictures, is an amazing album! These guys are local and you should be onto this band!"
"The band's debut full length, If Only Minds Could Paint Pictures, is an nine-track romp through a coked up, ADHD-ridden, autistic child's mind..."
"The new debut album by The Summoned - "If Only Minds Could Paint Pictures" is an absolute f***ing masterpiece!!"
"From start to finish you get the feeling that If Only Minds Could Paint Pictures is totally unrelenting. At every point where it feels like there's a down moment it lulls you into a false sense of security until you get fully-harmonized riffs forced with fury down your throat."
"These OurStage metal veterans have seen a fair amount on success within the Metal Channel since 2008. Their latest single, "The Flood" is perhaps one of their best songs yet, and will be featured on their upcoming album If Only Minds Could Paint Pictures."
"It is the test that the boys possess the characteristics in order to seriously think to a full-length that he would crown the efforts sin now made."
"The Summoned are always growing whether it be as a live band or in the studio they always have something new to bring to the table, and this Demo proves they are like none of the bands around."
"One of the most skull crushing and heaviest death metal bands in New England!"
"Deathcore gets a pretty bad rep in the metal community for whatever reason, but I like how an album like this can be so diverse with so many different sections and melodies and tempo changes."
"Harvest" is the first EP released by The Summoned from Dracut MA. It's six face melting songs that don't let up until the very end.

Should I put WordPress into a folder, get it set up, copy my stuff to WordPress pages, then delete my old stuff and move the WordPress stuff to the main section?

These percentages are WAY too high, it is time to rethink our relationship with food and begin enjoying food in a healthy manner.

This week I am in a training attending "Six sigma Greenbelt" training - it is very interesting. I am leading a project on "defect patterns" - something very close to my heart. All over the years, I have been trying work on something like this. Key benefit I am looking for is - learn from defects. An organization like MS, will have a huge database of bugs, hence provide a big opportunity for us to analysis and learn.
Two things that I would get out of this are -
1. A list of items for Dev - looking around 30-50, that will be included in their code review list. Say - "here are the typical mistakes that you guys have been doing. Take care of them"
2. A list of tricks for test-say "here are the new tricks that you might want to add to bag of tricks"
If I present this list to my team I sure there will be a constructive struggle between dev and test - dev trying to take off the items their bag and test trying to find bugs using trick offered to them. This ultimately I believe, results in over all "Lower" bug count hence "better quality".
A word of caution though, the information that I am planning to generate out of analysis is not to replace any existing processes in dev and test, it only an aid to do these things more efficiently.
I will keep posting about this topic as I move forward in this
Anybody has done something similar to this?

GSD Course Bulletin - Spring 2013
This term's information was last refreshed on 12 MAY 2015 14:54:38.
Courses taught by Ingeborg Rocker
01102: Second Semester Core: Introduction to Design and Visual Studies in Architecture (STU 0110200)
Core Studio - 8 credits
Monday Wednesday Friday 2:00 - 6:00
Cameron Wu, Ingeborg Rocker, Katy Barkan, Jeffry Burchard, John Hong, Mariana Ibanez, Elizabeth Whittaker
Course Description
The overarching pedagogical agenda for second semester is to expand upon the methodology of technique from the first semester such that students should develop an understanding of the complex interwoven relationship between form, space, structure, and materiality. This semester is about embodying and motivating the logical techniques from first semester with the problems of materiality, mass, proportion, tactility, and structure. Prerequisites: GSD 1101
01317: Ecologics: Refiguring the Civic Ground (STU 0131700)
Option Studio - 8 credits - Limited enrollment
Tuesday Thursday 2:00 - 6:00
Ingeborg Rocker
Course Description
Christoph Reinhart and Matthew Waxman will collaborate on this studio.
What is the role of architecture in urbanism and what is the role of urbanism in architecture? How can both work together to create civic space? What is the civic ground of the 21st century?
Students will design a high-dense, mixed-use architecture that is a necessary contribution to a hypothetical construction of a visionary ecological city. This architecture will hypothesize that an ability for it to be multiplied in the city, serially and differentiated, is part of how it will propose an eco-logic and urban necessity for human life in a dense metropolis.
The city of Guangzhou, China is our site. Visionary architecture and cities proposed by the students must reflect this context (traditional housing and civic space typologies) as well as be applicable as models for the future, worldwide. The studio will rethink and reconnect relationships across the assumed boundaries of an artificial split between nature and culture: outside and inside, public and private, civic and agrarian, dense and open, utility and aesthetic, equilibrium and change, etc. We will propose how the ecological city, in defiance of these divisions, is rather a 'continuous ground' of which its network of interconnections interacts to produce emergent 'figurations' embodying and reacting to the challenges of constrained realities.
How could architecture present an ideal vision to holistically address problems of a city and its society with rapid changes in population and density growth, across scales? Students will study influential large-scale visions of urbanism involving architectural prototypes authored generally between the mid 19th and 20th century, as well as contemporary large-scale urban visions that make an attempt to respond to questions of sustainability, globalization and rapid urbanization. Examining the theses to identify how the urbanism is, or could be, contingent on its integration with architecture, students will identify the precedent's constituent parameters, their performance, constraints, limitations, and network of interconnections. In comparing precedents, students will highlight evidence of a logic of ecology, or imagine what may need to be done to cultivate it.
Students will study existing architecture and urban conditions, with a focus on how environmental and cultural factors have reconfigured over time traditional neighborhoods and vernacular housing typologies. The studio has a tentative visit to Guangzhou and the South China University of Technology. We will discuss with professors, students, and city officials their respective knowledge and visions of their city.

DC Comics kicked off its Villains Month last week, as the evil opposites of the Justice League invaded the DC Universe, seemingly disposing of all the heroes and taking over the world.
Likewise, the villains have been taking over DC's New 52 line of comic books, with the MIA heroes finding the covers of their books occupied by bad guys. Those are, of course, the collectible and somewhat-controversial (among retailers) 3D lenticular covers.
But as the case with books, we shouldn't judge a comic by its cover, so let's continue reviewing our way through the contents of the Villains Month issues. As with last week's batch, I'm rating each book on a 10-point scale of how evil it is, with "Not Very Good" being the worst and "Absolute Evil" the best, and noting its connectivity to the Forever Evil crossover event that sparked the promotion in the first place.

Garmin Fenix 3
More accurate measure of your distance traveled than distances shown on hiking maps! It lets you see and know via a slight vibration when you are off trail. I have only used this on a 3-day hike through the White Mountains, but am pleased enough to write a first impressions review. I did recharge the Fenix each night using an external battery so cannot comment on whether one charge holds ups over a three-day period. I downloaded my routes to the Fenix and did not buy the Garmin maps. I may buy maps… Full review
Silva Expedition 15TDCL
A tough and well made reliable compass. This compass, like all other Silva models, is very high quality. I recently purchased this model to replace an earlier compass that had no clinometer. I was rather pleased to see that the quality of this model is as good as my 20-year-old Ranger. In use the baseplate markings come in very handy with 1: 25 000 and 1: 50 000 romer scales and CM / INCH measures. The markings are very well applied and I can't see these ever wearing away. (They are still as good… Full review
DeLorme inReach Explorer
This is a must have item on a backcountry thru hike! GPS satellite communication device with tracking and text messaging capability and SOS. I bought this device at a recent REI Garage sale for a steal! I've been wanting one for a long time and now I own one! I activated it immediately, which was easy to do. There are multiple different plans to choose from. I have loaded more than 50 trails and routes to the device and it is amazing! I'm super excited to have this device for my upcoming JMT thru… Full review
Suunto MC-2G Navigator
Nowhere near the quality of my mid-1990 Suunto. The lid closure is too tight, putting a lot of strain on both the lid and the baseplate acrylic lugs. Poorly etched base plate markings will not last long. Dial markings look like they have been applied by a 4 year old. Very poor quality when compared to my old Suunto. What a shame! Love the needle. That's why I bought it. Don't like the lid closure. That's why I sent it back. I can see this breaking the acrylic lugs. It really is that tight. Couldn't… Full review
ACR ResQLink+
Lightweight, small, and has the reliability of ACR behind it (I trust ACR locators). The ACR ResQLink+ is a replacement for my old heavy ACR TerraFix 406 PLB. The ResQLink+ is 1/4 the size of the old PLB and about 1/6 the weight of the older model. I had to use my old old PLB when I tore my right quad tendon while hiking White Oak Canyon in Shenandoah NP. Help did not arrive until I reached the parking lot. I got help from some ice climbers and a father and daughter out for the day. At that time,the… Full review

Garmin eTrex 30x
No battery, no s/d card, no way to carry fasten to equipment, just as well not had a map. No topo map, not much of anything, but wasted money in a drawer with other outdated phones and junk. I've owned two other Garmin products for l5 years. They are excellent pieces of equipment. This is why I'm so disappointed in the 30X. Look what maps are offered and cost. Very disappointed in world map. Would have been nice to zoom in to see where your on a trail at any time. Maybe I was expecting too much… Full review
Garmin GPSMAP 62st
Hand draw your route in Base Camp. My problem with Base Camp and all other back-country mapping software, is that you can't just put in the starting point and the end point and any waypoints in-between. You must manually hand draw on your computer the actual route you want to take as precise as possible, then transfer that route to your GPS. It won't just route itself on the trail, like a street GPS follows a street route. WHY NOT? This is 2016! Precision is required if you are wanting any kind… Full review

Bank of America's (NYSE:BAC) situation is taking on the aspects of a Greek tragedy – or a farce. Despite Warren Buffett's official statement that Bank of America is a well-run company, his way-too-small $5 billion in preferred stock with juicy terms is unfavorable to the bank. (A good explanation is in the Seeking Alpha article, "Buffett's Deal With Bank Of America Is Absolutely Terrible ... For Bank of America, That Is.")
On Wednesday, Henry Blodget said Bank of America is $200 billion short in capital. (Remember Blodget? He was the analyst at Merrill Lynch – now Bank of America Merrill Lynch – who was kicked out of the industry and had to pay millions in fines and disgorgements for allegedly having two opinions: One for the public and one issued privately.)
BofA's response to the $200 billion amount by wunderkind CEO Brian Moynihan was "Unh, unh! No way! We're fine!" (His audience was the understandably nervous employees.) In this day of instant electronic video and audio, Brian sent a memo to his 280,000 "teammates."
But we shouldn't express amazement at his reaction. Moynihan was a favorite of weak former-CEO Ken Lewis, who claims he bought Merrill Lynch because government leaders "convinced" him it was important to do so.
After taking over, Moynihan has one-upped Lewis, taking actions that exhibit hubris, not skill.
- Paid back the entire $45 billion in TARP funds, saying the bank could go it alone. Meanwhile, uncharacteristically realistic Citigroup (NYSE:C) repaid $20 billion, converting the other $25 billion into common stock – i.e., critically needed capital.
- Took a China trip with fanfare about expanding the bank's presence there, even as the bank struggled with deteriorating fundamentals in a highly uncertain U.S. environment.
- When asked about divestiture to raise needed capital, said there were no meaningful components to sell, claiming everything is meshed together and so everything is important to the bank's future.
- Tried to be allowed to pay out needed capital as dividends, but was rejected by Fed officials who were more realistic.
- Capital took a hit when the bank agreed to pay a negotiated $8.5 billion fine relating to misstatements about Countrywide's securities issuance.
- And now, we have his employee-reassurance vision of a financially strong bank that is steadily making its own way back by doing the right things – e.g., treating customers well.
Investors have noticed this lack of leadership, rewarding the stock with a downward trend. Forget Citigroup and its 1:10 reverse stock split. Bank of America is the in the throes of a shortage of capital, management skill and investor support.
Click to enlarge
JPMorgan (NYSE:JPM) To The Rescue?
How about the rumor that JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon would like to buy Bank of America? Here, BofA's response sounds accurate, calling the rumors "baseless" and saying they "don't even make practical sense." But not because BofA is financially sound. Rather, there is no reason that Dimon would want to buy such a massive problem with weaker, duplicative operations. However, there is another route ...
Dismemberment A Good Possibility
Bank of America could solve part of its capital problems by shrinking its asset size to match its shrunken market capitalization (now only $70 billion, 15% below Citigroup's and half of JPMorgan's). The challenge would be to sell assets that decrease capital requirements more than they decrease capital (e.g., by creating added write-offs or losses).
The other route is dismemberment – i.e., selling or spinning off companies or divisions. If taken far enough, these divestitures could have the added benefit of driving the remaining bank down out of the "too big to fail" category, with its higher capital ratio requirements.
Could Moynihan's ego take it? Probably not. However, reality likely will drive BofA's board to act – perhaps jettisoning the CEO along with Merrill Lynch, etc.
Who wins if the bank goes this route? Obviously, JPMorgan and Wells Fargo (NYSE:WFC), as the better capitalized major banks, could pick up some strategic pieces. From an investment standpoint, private equity firms could be interested. For blocks of assets, institutions and funds could be buyers. One thing is certain – unlike when Bank of America paid up for Merrill Lynch, there probably will be no sugar daddy bids for BofA's assets. Warren Buffett has proven that.
The Bottom Line
In spite of Bank of America's Buffett-inspired stock jump, the outlook for BofA is murky, at best. Whatever the capital requirement amount actually is, it is a huge problem for the bank (see "JP Morgan's Competitive Position Just Increased"). Meeting it is questionable and will adversely affect its future, both financially and competitively. CEO Moynihan's seemingly naïve, rose-colored view is delaying a realistic solution. Even dramatic action at this point may not be enough to save the bank. The big four could become the big three plus a Wikipedia entry.
Disclosure: I am long JPM.
Additional disclosure: Positions: Long U.S. stocks and U.S. stock funds.

Candidates Mold Economic Teams
Republican presidential candidates' economic teams are taking shape at a time when concerns about the recovery are increasingly dominating the 2012 presidential race.
Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney has tapped prominent GOP economists with extensive Washington experience, many of them veterans of the Bush administration. Texas Gov. Rick Perry has leaned toward experts who track further to the right and who tend to have visions closely aligned with his more conservative proposals.
Behind the Republican Hopefuls
R. Glenn Hubbard
Rich Lowrie
Steve Forbes
And former restaurant executive Herman Cain, the man leading many polls, relies on a relatively small staff plucked from obscurity.
Mr. Romney rolled out a broad 59-point economic plan to cut corporate taxes, reduce government spending and take a hard line on China. Top advisers include Gregory Mankiw, a Harvard University economist, and R. Glenn Hubbard, the dean of Columbia University's business school. Both served as heads of the Council of Economic Advisers during George W. Bush's administration.
Mr. Perry's economic plan so far is centered on an optional flat tax, slashing government spending and overhauling the country's energy policies. He has veered toward economic advisers who have similar views, such as former presidential candidate and media executive Steve Forbes and David Malpass, a former chief economist at Bear Stearns who worked in the Reagan administration.
Mr. Cain would replace the current tax system with a 9% personal income tax, a 9% corporate income tax and a 9% national sales tax. Rich Lowrie, the architect behind the "9-9-9" plan, is a wealth-management adviser for Wells Fargo Advisors in the Cleveland area.
The battered U.S. economy is likely to remain atop the list of voters' concerns with unemployment stuck at 9.1%. President Barack Obama has put forward a host of proposals to spur the economy in the short-term, including a package of tax cuts, spending increases, a housing-refinance plan and measures to reduce student-loan burdens.
The Republican economic teams reflect the campaigns' competing approaches. Mr. Romney aims to appeal to the Republican mainstream establishment, from which he drew his advisers. Mr. Perry portrays himself as the true conservative, and his economic advisers come from the more ideological, Reagan wing of the GOP.
Mr. Cain, meanwhile, is proudly the nonestablishment, unconventional candidate who has little use for the way things have been done, and, fittingly, has fewer people who have been part of Republican administrations or campaigns.
On the List for 2012?
Read about the potential Republican presidential contenders.
This doesn't mean the candidates always agree with their advisers. Mr. Romney, for instance, has said the government shouldn't intervene in the home-foreclosure process, while Mr. Hubbard has advocated a mortgage-refinance program.
Mr. Romney's economic plan is sharply critical of China and calls for stronger sanctions to deter Beijing's allegedly unfair trade practices. Mr. Hubbard's view is more nuanced.
"China shouldn't be surprised," at some of the harsh rhetoric, Mr. Hubbard said, but "there's too much interest placed on the currency and not enough on China's financial system."
There is a similar disconnect between some of Mr. Romney's plans and Mr. Mankiw's prescription for the economy. Mr. Romney has proposed some tax changes, such as reducing the corporate tax rate to 25% and eliminating the inheritance tax, while Mr. Mankiw is in favor of a more sweeping overhaul that would shift to taxing consumption instead of income and eliminate popular deductions, such as for mortgage interest.
Mr. Romney "listens to lots of people, I'm honored to be one of them," Mr. Mankiw said, but "I don't expect him to agree" on everything.
Mr. Perry has, for the most part, relied on advisers attuned to his message: Overhaul the tax system and cut government spending.
"He seemed keenly interested in major tax reform which, of course, is music to my ears," said Mr. Forbes, one of Mr. Perry's main economic advisers and a longtime proponent of a flat tax—a single rate rather than the current system of multiple rates that rise with income.
Mr. Malpass is similarly worried about the country's tax structure and federal spending. "We're in a very dangerous fiscal situation with our debt being downgraded, with deficit projections remaining very high into the foreseeable future," he said. "I would like to see a complete upheaval in Washington's tax and spend culture."
Mr. Perry has also consulted with experts such as Alvin Rabushka, a flat-tax expert at Stanford University's Hoover Institution, and Pamela Olson, a former Treasury assistant secretary for tax policy in the Bush Administration. But they don't necessarily consider themselves Perry advisers or supporters.
The Cain campaign, in addition to Mr. Lowrie, lists a handful of advisers who helped craft his plan for "Opportunity Zones." The zones are designed to help distressed communities by offering lower tax rates to attract businesses and allowing more flexibility on rules such as the minimum-wage law.
Niger Innis, spokesman for the Congress of Racial Equality and an unpaid adviser to Mr. Cain helped craft the plan and said it's no surprise Mr. Cain's advisers are little-known. "He doesn't want to act like a politician," Mr. Innis said of Mr. Cain. "The old structures and the old conventional wisdom of how to run a campaign is out of the door."

Researchers Now Have a Myriad of...
From our August issue: Clinical-Style Validation,...
Keep the Opportunities, Lose the Opportunists
Loss of Lives in Clinical Trials...
The Hamner Institutes for Health Sciences has expanded its collaboration with the U.S. EPA's National Center for Computational Toxicology (NCCT) by conducting two additional studies for the EPA ToxCast™ program. The results from this program will be used to determine if in vitro assays can be used to forecast the toxic effects of chemicals and better characterize human health risks. The first of the new studies will perform a high data-content imaging screen to examine 11 integrated, in vitro cell response markers using a sub-set of the ToxCast Phase I chemicals. This approach will identify a set of medium-throughput, integrated cell responses that could serve as the basis for defining key toxicity pathways. The second study will develop data to support a computational systems biology description of activation and cellular responses for human toxicity pathways. This type of information will guide dose response and risk assessments from in vitro test results. The goal of these projects is to provide the tools for pathway mapping and computational systems biology modeling and to identify the types of data that will be needed for dose response evaluations for human toxicity pathways. The two projects will be pursued over the next two years. The results from these studies will be integrated into the ToxCast program with the ultimate goal of understanding whether the effects observed in the high-throughput biochemical and cellular assays combined with computational modeling of how chemicals move through the human body may be observed at relevant human doses.

Two researchers from Stanford, however, call for a rigorous scientific exploration of MDMA's effects to identify precisely how the drug works, the data from which could be used to develop therapeutic compounds.Do you agree that ecstasy should be studied for its potential therapeutic benefits?

Family Ties
I was supposed to have dinner at Rolf's last night, a crazy , over the top German restaurant with my "sister in law" Dot. It's decorated like a Christmas tree that's been flattened and pressed on to the walls and ceiling but I guess we weren't the only ones to have this idea, it was mobbed and even tho we had reservations we couldn't get far enough into the restaurant to tell the host we were there. They put ton's of decorations in the doorway too, making the entrance/exit smaller, which made it kind of feel like a firetrap. I had been there once before during Christmas and had an incredibly fun, crazy, beer fueled dinner with my brother who lives in Costa Rica named, Rolf. He was visiting one Christmas when a 1.3 megapixal digital camera was the size of a Walkman and considered "state of the art". That was a while ago.
Dot and I had a nice walk around the neighborhood, catching up on our various relatives, learning a little bit about each other, I told her about my upcoming trip to Brazil and the incredible circumstances that made it happen, and Dot told me about what it was like to be a personal trainer, and her life with her husband Jack. I don't even remember how long I've known Dot for, but this is the first time we've done anything together, just the two of us. We found a new restaurant called Smith and had a really nice dinner that we both enjoyed.
But the amazing thing was that there wasn't a moment of silence, we couldn't wait to share all these stories of our lives, marvel at the similarities and differences and I was blown away by how lucky I am to get to know this really cool person!
The whole reason I know Dot is through Bill. Bill and I are ex-boyfriends, we were together for 8 years and 5 years ago we decided to split, well, I'm simplifying this, but let's just leave it at that for now. But the really cool thing is that Bill and all of Bill's family realized how much I liked being a part of this Family in addition to my own blood relatives out in the Midwest (and Costa Rica) who I love dearly and think about all the time. But Bill's siblings and Mom and sister in law Dot never stopped calling me, sending me birthday cards, inviting me up for Christmas and Bill has become one of my closest, deepest friends. We talk on the phone all the time, share notes on guys we've met (when I told Bill I was thinking of going to Brazil to see Eduardo, Bill's immediate response was an enthusiastic "Go for it!") and most importantly, we've been there witnessing each other's lives for a long time now, we can be pretty sharp observers of our patterns of behaviour, good and bad. Bill has become one of the wisest, kindest, smartest and most importantly, brutally honest friends i could ever have. He and his family are a big part of why I say I'm the luckiest guy alive.

Major Management Challenges and Program Risks
GAO-03-849T: Published: Jun 12, 2003. Publicly Released: Jun 12, 2003.

Since its inception, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has undertaken numerous programs that have greatly advanced scientific and technological knowledge. NASA's activities span a broad range of complex and technical endeavors. But the agency is at a critical juncture, and major management improvements are needed. In January of this year, we identified four challenges facing NASA: (1) strengthening strategic human capital management, (2) improving contract management; (3) controlling International Space Station costs, and (4) reducing space launch costs.
In summary, these challenges affect NASA's ability to effectively run its largest programs. NASA's ultimate challenge will be in tackling the root problems impeding those programs. This will require (1) instituting a results-oriented culture that fosters knowledge sharing and empowers its workforce to accomplish programmatic goals; (2) ensuring that the agency adheres to management controls to prevent cost overruns and scheduling problems; (3) transforming the financial management organization so it better supports NASA's core mission; and (4) sustaining commitment to change.

In freelancing — much like in conventional careers — there will be times when you and the people paying your salary are just not a good match.
While being half a world away from a difficult client may give you an advantage over an employee who works 10 feet from the boss he can't stand, it doesn't mean you need to put up with the challenge. Ideally, "this-is-a-bad-fit" red flags would come up during the interview process, when you have time to decline a job before becoming too involved. However, sometimes it's impossible to know how you and a client will work together until you have been contracted and are on the job for a certain length of time.
If you and the client are not a good fit, one or more of these red flags will eventually be revealed:
- Difficulty communicating ideas and concepts to the client
- Difficulty understanding the ideas and concepts described by the client
- Lack of prompt payment for services rendered
- Problems getting in touch with the client by email or phone
- An ongoing need to redo your work because it hasn't met client expectations
- Inadequate or "too fuzzy" answers to your questions about the project
- Lack of respect for your time (missing conference calls with you, keeping you waiting on hold, delaying email responses)
- Unreasonable expectations of your work
- Demands not initially discussed in your contract or added to it by mutual agreement
- Lack of feedback on work completed or acknowledgment of work completed
- Illegal activity or activity that is ethically uncomfortable for you
- Disparity between the interview/contract agreement and reality, regarding the nature of the work and compensation
- A general lack of professionalism on the part of the client
- Overall sense of dread or boredom about working on the projects for the client
Any of these reasons would be reason enough to end your contract with a client. A few of the above issues may be resolved with a frank conversation, but – most of the time – these are problems that aren't going anywhere and waiting them out will only make things worse. While it's not always advisable to immediately cut and run, it is advisable to begin working toward a clean break as soon as possible.
- Begin by seeking a project with a different client. It's time to make up for the financial loss you will incur when you part ways with your current client. Start looking the moment you decide it's not going to work out.
- Wrap up any current projects and inform the client. When your income and financial stability is no longer an issue, it's time to graciously head for the door.
- Be honest, but brief. There is no need to hand over a list of complaints. This isn't a marriage and you are not going to counseling together. Simply state that it isn't a good fit and you'd like them to have the opportunity to find a suitable match.
- Give a clear end date and stick to it. Two weeks notice isn't necessary, especially if you are completing any outstanding assignments and meeting your contractual obligations.
- Remember your reputation. Remember that your reputation is on the line whether the client is two cities away or two continents away. The online world is flat and often surprising. If you can avoid burning bridges, then do so. For a smooth exit, admit no faults and accuse of nothing (unless it's going to keep you up at night).
Freelancing is about the freedom to make a living on your own terms. So, when a freelancing gig begins to feel like a burden, it's time to reevaluate your relationship with the client and the viability of a long-term commitment.

Product ReviewsWrite a review
Roush Extreme Lowering Spring Kit GT 2005-2014 is rated out of 5 by 1.
Rated 4 out of 5 by MASSTANG_BO from Great New Look Replaced my stock GT springs with the Roush Extreme LS. Looks even better than I expected. I run 19" all around, the drop of 1.00" F/1.25" R looks awesome. Ride quality hasn't changed much at all but no more nose lift on acceleration and off ramps are so tight. Not to difficult to do in a couple hours. Kind of disappointed that 3 out of 4 springs arrived all wrapped in paper and the paint was really scuffed in several places (not from transportation). In my eyes they were packaged that way. Normally would have returned them but couldn't wait.

Product Questions
Dear, I have a 2014 Mustang V6 that is now modified to a Roush RS Mustang. But I don't have a Roush spring kit yet. Since the body colour of my Mustang is Sterling Gray, I like this more than the blue set. But it mentions 'GT' kit, so will it fit on a V6?
These will physically fit your 2014 V6 Mustang. The only reason Roush calls out that they fit GT only is because of the difference in weight between the GT and V6, which is not much at all. Roush is just very particular in there design for very specific applications.

A full range of equipment including satellite television, wood burning stove, unlimited wi-fi and barbecue will guarantee a carefree break. With a spacious living/dining room, open plan kitchen and versatile, cosy bedrooms, Balbeag offers you an excellent base for a great holiday whatever the weather or time of year.
What a fantastic house and location. We've cycled and driven up and down the Feshie road many times and were aware of a house in the woods, often wondering what it was like. Now we know, warm, comfortable and with a really peaceful outlook. Hopefully we'll be able to book it again in the future.
D.D. – Edinburgh, October 2014
We had a fantastic time in your beautiful holiday home. The place is so well stocked with everything you could possibly need and the garden is especially wonderful for dogs being gated and fully fenced. The setting is so tranquil and beautiful, we came home wishing we could live there permanently! We loved the area as well being surrounded by snow capped mountain ranges and thick pine forests, truly breathtaking scenery.

Don't you know who I am: Kahn told victim
"Don't you know who I am?" he said while pinning the maid down during the alleged sexual assault.
New York: "Don't you know who I am!" is what former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn told the hotel maid while pinning her down during the alleged sexual assault on her, according to a media report on Tuesday.
"Don't you know who I am! Don't you know who I am?" he said while pinning the 32-year-old maid down, law enforcement officials told FOX News.
Sources told FOX News that the immigrant from Guinea repeatedly told him, "Please, please stop. No!" and that she couldn't afford to lose her job.
"Please stop. I need my job, I can't lose my job, don't do this. I will lose my job. Please, please stop! Please stop!" she pleaded, according to law enforcement sources.
Strauss-Kahn allegedly responded: "No, baby. Don't worry, you're not going to lose your job. Please, baby, don't worry... Don't you know who I am? Don't you know who I am?"
The former IMF chief, who was indicted on seven counts on Thursday, allegedly forced the maid at the Sofitel hotel in Manhattan to perform oral sex.
He was taken into custody a few minutes before his Air France flight departed for Paris.
Strauss-Kahn is out on a USD 6 million bail.
He has been put under house arrest and he has to wear an electronic monitoring device. Strauss-Kahn denied wrongdoing and is expected to plead not guilty.
