Assistant DA Jenna James took an oath to uphold the law, administer justice, deter crime and ensure the safety of the community. Her job isn't easy, but it has always been black and white - criminals versus victims. Now she is the victim, and the very system she's fought to uphold is suddenly corrupt, the lines between good and bad are blurred and her world has turned upside down. She's always known that world existed - a world of power so immense that a single phone call can result in people disappearing or political offices being vacated, a world where doctors are available at a moment's notice. She's never been part of that world - never wanted to be. The body count is rising, and unless she finds proof beyond a reasonable doubt against a corrupt former federal judge, and a notorious criminal defense attorney, it will continue to rise.

Overdrive is sport anime about young boy, who would like to impress his school love by joining her brother's cycling club. Well, at least at the beginning. After this intro to our "hero's" life, this whining, clumsy, no-good guy finds out that bicycle is something he could love and also something that can make him exceptional.
I don't know, but I'm kind of fed up with main characters always whining and be no good at all, only to find out later, that they are actually something special. And Mikoto (who's name I wasn't able to remember half of the way) is really king of whingers. Kobayakawa Sena and even Sawada Tsunayoshi are left far behind. King is dead, long live the king!
It's a really slow paced anime (which is not a bad thing, just saying) and it won't get better even when they start racing. That's a little problem from my point of view. What I expect from sport anime is some tension and drama at least in the "sport" part. You definitely won't get this here. Race is unnecessary disturbed by flashbacks (even for side, unimportant characters) and there is far too many of them. Almost everytime when you expect that things will get exciting, you get at least one flashback of character's past, revealing his motivations or background. And it drags down the pace of race and story. To that account, I should also say, that I really don't understand what (By the name of great Tour de France) was that ABC love segment doing in one of the late episodes. It wasn't very funny, but it was completely out of place.
This series also lacks one thing that's by my opinion very important. After I saw Eyeshiled 21, I went to training of american football. After I saw Slam Dunk, I bought basket ball and from that time am going out to play some ball with my friend. After Hikaru no Go, I started to read rules of Go... Every one of them made me take interest to some degree. After I saw Overdrive, I had no intention to go to my attic and dust off my old bike, not at all.
FINAL OVERVIEW: I couldn't put much points to stroy, beacause story itself is really nothing special on the field of sports anime, it's just average, unfinished and heavily open-ended. When it comes to characers, I think that's the strong side of Overdrive. I can feel their motivations, get to know them by background stories and I begin to like them, even though it's paid out by dynamic of story. Humor here is almost always based on Mikoto's whining, which is getting irritating sometimes.
Music was very good, and I'm sure I will remember few themes for sime time. Animation was very good although I can't forgive it few computer animations segments, which I really hate.
So, don't get me wrong here, I said a lot of "bad" stuff about Overdrive, but in general I liked it very much. It defenitely wasn't boring and I didn't have to force myself to keep watching. Clicking 'next episode' everytime was just natural.
It was nice, easy and fast ride and I hope memories won't go off as easy as bruises on my butt :D

Pros: It flies well, and the control is easy to use, it is also very durable.
Cons: It's not that it didn't work, I tried charging it and then I realized that the charger thing inside the helicopter was inside and I could not fix it. So I couldn't charge it. I already made a request for a exchange of the same item, hopefully it goes well.READ FULL REVIEW

Cons: This is only intended for right hand users, my friend who was left handed, wanted this mouse because of how great this mouse was, however it is only made for right handed users. Not a con, possibly a suggestion and a heads up.

Environment and Emerging Development Issues by Partha Dasgupta
Book DescriptionTwo and a half billion people are affected directly on a day to day basis by the allocation and use of primary local resources. Yet 'official' development economics has concentrated on headline international issues and only recently begun to take account of the dependence of poor countries on their natural resources, the link between acute poverty and environmental degradation, and the problems associated with the management of local common property such as soil and soil cover, water, forests and their products, animals and fisheries. In these volumes, which are part of the WIDER programme on the Economics for the Environment, expert contributors provide a set of authoritative studies of emerging development issues, ranging from foundational matters to case studies, original research (in areas where there has been a paucity of work) to survey papers. They address both analytic and empirical issues on the role of environmental resources in the development process, presenting explanations of existing situations and policies for the future. A wealth of interests and backgrounds is represented, and reflected in the cross-fertilization between papers.

5 steps to a successful interior design scheme
Before you buy new furniture, select a paint colour or invest in fixtures and fittings, follow Gabrielle Blackman's simple tips on developing an interior scheme
1. Plan the layout
Getting your new layout right is the key to a successful build, whether you're extending for a larger kitchen-diner or tackling a whole house renovation. Take your time and invest in the best advice you can afford to explore all the options before getting the sledgehammers out! Consult with architects, designers and builders, as well as the local planning authority to discuss what you can do. Don't forget to draw plans and experiment with placement of design elements.
2. Think in threes
Three is the magic number – keep stressful decision making to a minimum and create elegant interiors by keeping the same three materials throughout your new design. Not only will this look great, but it will make choosing all those finishing touches easier too.
3. Consider simplifying lighting options
Don't overcomplicate your lighting scheme with too many downlights. It can interrupt the flow of a room's sightline if there are too many dotted on the ceiling. A statement pendant light and some gorgeous table lamps works beautifully in a reception room or in bedrooms, creating both a stylish look and practical lighting.
4. Create a moodboard and keep it updated
Communicate your ideas with your designer, builder or architect (or even family members) with pictures and drawings of things you like. If you're undertaking structural work, hold weekly site meetings once work is underway to ensure your vision is still being met.
5. Think carefully about every purchase
Once you know exactly the look you're going for, take your time making important creative decisions and don't rush into buying the first thing you see to match your vision. Consider your budget, how something will work in a space, and most importantly if you really need it. If you don't love it, don't buy it!
Gabrielle Blackman is an interior designer and presenter of BBC1's DIY SOS and Channel 5's Cowboy Builders. With more than 18 years professional experience, she has worked with designers such as Mary Fox Linton and Nina Campbell and is involved in many varied projects from designing luxury kitchens, TV sets, yachts and homes for private clients.

Social Media is a life sentence
Before you take the next step of using social media for business purposes, realize that it's a life sentence. Not unlike needing to take anti-rejection medications every day for life after receiving a liver transplant, the same thing goes for social media-for-business: in order for it to work, you need to commit to doing it not just for the next six-months but for the next sixty-years.
Death to Blogger Whores!
Manhattan Marketing Maven
After reading a number of case studies describing how brands have used social influencers to drive commercial success, I get the feeling that bloggers are like Congressmen; they can be easily bought and paid for. And while FTC rules demand full disclosure, it seems that the journalistic ethics of early bloggers has succumbed to the easy baksheesh offered by brands, and their PR or social marketing firms, eager to marshal what appears to be consumer endorsements or momentum. As a long-term independent blogger, there's something skeevy in this.
23 Outstanding Social PR Guides
Foremost among these developments is the shift from communicating primarily to a closely-guarded list of traditional "media' contacts (editors and paid journalists) to working with an amorphous and expanding pool of influencers in specific industries and specialties: vendors, buyers, brand advocates, bloggers, freelance writer, peers, and others.

Social media ROI sucks! (Or, you can prove anything if you send out a survey)
Social media marketing is now precariously ensconced as a more-or-less mainstream marketing channel. After all, content is the "fuel" that drives the social media engine, right? But things can get murky when marketers are asked to rate social media in terms of contributing to business goals. This is hardly a rejection of social media or even Facebook.

Kendra Wilkinson net worth: Kendra Wilkinson is an American television personality, businesswoman, model, and author who has a net worth of $6 million. She was born June 12, 1985 in San Diego, California, and is probably best known for being one of Hugh Hefner's three girlfriends on the reality show The Girls Next Door. Although not a Playboy Playmate, she appeared in three nude pictorials with her two co-stars, girlfriends Holly Madison and Bridget Marquardt. She went on to star in her own self-titled reality series in 2009 called Kendra, which produced record-breaking numbers for E!, with 2.6 million viewers—the highest rated reality show debut for the network since the 2002 premiere of The Anna Nicole Show. Wilkinson parted ways with E! network in 2011 and began a reality series on WE tv called Kendra on Top, which premiered June 5, 2012. Wilkinson married Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Hank Baskett on June 27, 2009 at the Playboy Mansion. The couple had their first baby, a boy named Hank Baskett IV, on December 22, 2009, after which she reportedly suffered from postpartum depression. She attributed the depression to moving to Indianapolis, where her husband Hank Baskett played, and feeling isolated. In 2013, she also appeared on an episode of Celebrity Wife Swap with Kate Gosselin, and later that year, announced she was pregnant via a Twitter photo. Kendra and Hank had a second child, a girl named Alijah Mary, on May 16, 2014. In July 2014 it was rumored that Baskett had an affair with a transgender model named Ava Sabrina London. Kendra initially laughed off the allegations but later found a charge on Baskett's credit card that could not be explained. The pair are still together but the weight of the scandal appears to be driving a bit of a wedge in their relationship.

Trying to Conceive
The boards have been quiet! While I don't want to be in the testing threads (to avoid disappointment) I miss the convos. HOW IS EVERYONE? 11DPO and waiting for AF. I refuse to test but don't believe I'm PG. I'm having massive right ovary twinges/pains since this morning. Making me feel nauseous. I felt great from 1-5DPO and "symptoms" started 6DPO, but not enough to line up with an early PG (dry cm, etc). Since I'm just waiting for my temps to drop I'm basically counting down days until brie & wine :-) Brie is a PG no-no and I LOVE it, and of course wine is too. I'm only drinking alcohol during AF while trying - I don't want to deprive myself, but want to be in good shape for fertile days and of course careful during the LP (TWW). I'm not liking this new PW :-( I can't figure out how to change font (so the best I can do is upper case letters), insert pics, etc. I also keep inserting spaces between paragraphs, then it becomes a big mush of one paragraph. Maybe it's my browser?

An Endzeitgeist.com review
This pdf of the Warrior Prestige Archetype-series clocks in at 9 pages, 1 page front cover, 1 page editorial/introduction (explaining the base concept of the series), 1 page SRD leaving us with 6 pages of content, so let's take a look!
What are Prestige Archetypes? Well, I reviewed the whole first series, so here's the tl;dr-version: They are prestige classes blended with one (or more) base-class(es) to result in a new, 20-level-class - much like you had modified the base class with an archetype. Get it? Yeah, not a hard concept to grasp, is it? Now personally, I use Prestige Classes with an emphasis on the PRESTIGE-component, archetypes more like a career path, but this differs wildly from how PrCs are handled in most cases. Hence, for all who are dissatisfied with how Prestige Classes work in PFRPG - this series is for you.
This one takes the Skyseeker-PrC and utilizes the ranger chassis - which means full BAB-progression, good Fort- and Ref-saves, full proficiency with weapons and light + medium armor and shields, Wis-based spellcasting from the ranger's list starting at 4th level and 6+Int skills. 7th level nets heavy armor proficiency.
The class, as presented here, adheres pretty closely to the ranger-frame - favored enemy, progression 3rd level endurance, 1st level track + wild empathy - the dispersal of ranger abilities throughout the levels is pretty solid. 2nd level nets the know direction-based Find Citadel ability - so no, combat style is not part of the deal for this class.
3rd level provides a new ability that immediately makes this version superior to its PrC-iteration - ancestral allies: You choose either companions, allowing her to grant favored enemy bonus to allies, an animal companion or the favored terrain class feature - this level of customization is nice to see and thematically fits the class well. At 4th level, the rune-carved armor is gained and 5th level grants ancestral weapons, with the ability's damage-scaling being dispersed organically throughout the levels of the class. 6th level nets 1/week Commune, +1 use every 6 levels thereafter. 9th level either grants darkvision or expands it, with the second expansion happening at 14th level.
The SR-granting runes of Resistance is gained at 13th level and 16th level offers path of the ancients. The powerful, mettle-like effect Stalwart is gained appropriately late at 17th level and the PrC's capstone Call to Arms can now be found at 18th level. The new capstone allows for full speed tracking, standard action attacks versus favored enemies that operate on save-or-die, including the option to instead drop foes via nonlethal damage.
The pdf, as always, provides solid FCOs for the core-races and this time around, sports a sample dwarf at level 1, 5, 10 and 15. The pdf also has a feat that allows for easier stabilization alongside 1/day crit/sneak negation down to a normal hit.
Editing and formatting are very good, I noticed no glitches. Layout adheres to Purple Duck Games' printer-friendly two-column standard and has seen some streamlining - from font use to markers, the layout has been improved, so kudos! The pdf comes fully bookmarked and sans art apart from the cover.
The Sun seeker as presented by Carl Cramér here suffers from a downright sucky PrC -I liked its concept, but the execution of the PrC is all over the place and feels confused. This Prestige Archetype does a better job at making the class feel concise and thematically consistent. That being said, I really wished ancestral weapon, the first active signature ability that could be conceivably moved to lower levels, was there - perhaps instead of some ranger abilities. As written, the class takes a LONG time to become truly distinct. While ancestral allies somewhat mitigates this, one might argue that moving it slightly would have been nice, since it essentially mimics ranger abilities. As written rune-carved armor at 4th level is the first truly distinct ability, 5th level offering the first offensive one. In my playtest, this rendered the class, at low levels, pretty much less distinct than it ought to have been. Higher levels somewhat mitigate this, but still - all in all a solid take on the concept, but it falls rather short of Carl's better prestige archetypes. My final verdict will clock in at 3 stars.
Endzeitgeist out.
This pdf of the Warrior Prestige Archetype-series clocks in at 8 pages, 1 page front cover, 1 page editorial/introduction (explaining the base concept of the series), 1/2 a page advertisement, 1 page SRD leaving us with a 4.5 pages of content, so let's take a look!
The student of war utilizes the fighter as the base chassis, which means full BAB-progression and proficiencies, good Fort-saves and d10 HD, but teh Student fo War gets 4+Int skills.
The class gets a bonus feat at first, 2nd and every 4 levels thereafter, which must be chosen from the combat-feat-type. They may select fighter-only feats, treating their class level as fighter level for the purpose of prerequisites. 3rd level nets armor training, 7th allows for full movement in heavy armor and 19th level nets DR 5/- whenever wearing armor or a shield.
2nd level provides mind over metal, i.e. the Int-for Dex-substitution of the PrC - good to see this moved down, since it's a basic ability. The signature ability Know Your Enemy is gained at 4th level, and if you're like me and obsessively memorize text, a quick check-up of the base PrC's text will show that the wording here actually cleans up a glaring oversight regarding humanoids from the PRC - kudos! The bonus granted and its scaling is solid and action-economy-wise, we also get a nice progression that fits with the respective levels. The same cannot be said about Anticipate - also gained at 4th level, it's where the class somewhat goes off the rails: Where the original ability had a daily limit, this one hasn't. Yes, this means essentially evasion for all 3 saves. Urgh.
8th level nets Telling Blow, 12th nemesis, 16th deadly blow and the class has a new capstone - against all studied targets, you auto-confirm crits at +1 multiplier - NICE!
The pdf provides FCOs for the core races as well as a sample goblin NPC at 1st, 5th, 10th and 15th level.
Carl Cramér has a difficult task here - the student of war is certainly not the most compelling of PrCs. The class presented here is a solid take on the concept - and one, let me state this loud and clear, that is better than the base PrC it is based one. That being said, it also falls a bit short of its own potential. The decision to make the first 3 levels defined exclusively by bonus feats & passive abilities make the class less compelling than it could be - by moving the distinct Know thy Enemy-ability down to 1st level and adding a scaling mechanism to prevent dip-exploits, this class could have been more distinct.
As written, it begins to come into its own at 4th level, where the active signature abilities are granted. And yes, I do believe that Anticipate should remain here - but not as an unrestricted ability. A lenient daily cap that scales with class levels could have made this one fit perfectly...as written, this ability is good enough to make a 4-level dip into the class an option I'd definitely consider, especially when combined with a class that provides many or more good saves...for in the context of the student of war itself, the ability is not broken...in the overall frame of rules, though...urgh.
At the same time, this Prestige Archetype does have some awesome components, providing a fix and some nice new content...so how to rate this? In the end, I will settle on a final verdict of 3 stars for this one.
This pdf of the Warrior Prestige Archetype-series clocks in at 9 pages, 1 page front cover, 1 page editorial/introduction (explaining the base concept of the series), 1 page SRD, leaving us with a 6 pages of content, so let's take a look!
So, here we go - the stalwart defender: Full BAB-progression, good Fort- and Will-saves, 2+Int skills, d12, full proficiencies, DR 1/- scaling up to 7/-, with +1 every 3 levels. Third level nets a dodge bonus that scales up every 3 levels....yeah, these guys are all about the defense, with 2nd and 5th level netting uncanny dodge and its improved variant.
Thankfully, we get the class's signature ability, defensive stance, at first level, with 4+Con-mod rounds per day, +2 per class level. This nets a +2 AC bonus, +4 Str and Con and +2 Will-saves...and before you see the abuse potential - yes, this has an anti-rage-stack caveat - kudos! "But this is better than Rage!!" - -Yup, the numbers are...and they'd better be, for this lacks the component of free mobility.
Starting at 2nd level, the stalwart defender as presented here may choose from a broad array of defensive powers - from rerolling failed Will-saves to better defense versus feints and being bypassed via Acrobatics to halting foes, the power here are valid and diverse, with the more powerful ones sporting a sensible level-cap. And yes, there are some cool, new complementary powers to be found here that are not part of the base PrC - and they make sense - like retaliating when an ally is hit.
Mobile Defense is gained at 8th level, whereas the PrC's Last Word-capstone is moved to 17th level, to make way for the Mighty version of the defensive stance.
This pdf also provides FCOs for the core-races and sample NPCs at 1st,5th,10th and 15th level, this time using a dragonblooded as a the base race. The pdf also provides an interesting elixir that enhances defensive qualities, but at the cost of the ability to move...Nice one!
Carl Cramér's Stalwart defender makes sense - at the first glance, the slight power-discrepancy compared to the barbarian may seem upsetting, but the class works out surprisingly well. It also makes the stalwart defender more beautiful from a design-aesthetic point of view - it's just tighter, more streamlined and feels less like something tacked on, instead providing essentially a cool variant class. The new abilities and item just add icing to the cake. A great installment, vastly superior to the base PrC in aesthetics and execution, this is well worth 5 stars + seal of approval.
This pdf of the Warrior Prestige Archetype-series clocks in at 10 pages, 1 page front cover, 1 page editorial/introduction (explaining the base concept of the series), 1/2 page blank, 1 page SRD, leaving us with 6.5 pages of content, so let's take a look!
The Steel Falcon, as presented here, uses the ranger as a base chassis - that means full BAB-progression, d10, 6+Int skills and two good saves, but the class gets full proficiencies. First level nets wild empathy and favored enemy progression starting at first level, progressing at 5th level and every 5 levels thereafter. As a note: The table lacks the favored enemy entry at 1st level, though one may argued that the prescribed choice "slavers" as a group counts locked by another ability counts as that - so no, not going to bash the pdf for this.
The class gets combat style progression, 3rd level endurance and must take the companion bond variant at 4th level. Steel Falcons add their class level to Profession (sailor) and Survival. 4th level provides +4 versus charm and compulsion and 2nd level nets heroic speech, treated as inspire courage at class level -1. 4th level nets the Steel Falcon a ranger trap, +1 every 4 levels, with 8th level doubling damage, 12th level tripling it and 16th level quadrupling it, maintaining relevance for this ability at higher levels.
5th level nets armor training, 6th a d20-reroll and 7th an upgrade for aid another. Subtle Manipulator is relegated to 11th level and Avoral's Blessing to 13th, while the PrC's capstone, Avoral's Fury, comes into play at 19th level. Chainbreaker is very late to the party - 18th level, at which point that aspect is essentially all but lost to the overall playing experience. That being said, the dispersal of ranger abilities throughout the levels of the class is sound.
The class comes, as always, with nice FCOs for the core-races and a sample character at level 1, 5, 10 and 15.
Carl Cramér's Steel Falcon has a hard legacy - while I love the organization's concept in Golarion, the Steel Falcon PrC is less than awesome - it simply lacks interesting theme and feels like a pretty disparate array of abilities that thematically fit, but lack a concise crunch base-line. This issue is somewhat mitigated by the class as presented herein...but at the same time, one might argue that this Steel Falcon is a variant ranger whose truly unique abilities only come into play at the higher levels. While it does play different from a base ranger, the difference lies mostly in the details and, when compared to the best in the series, it does feel like its defining traits enter play simply too late - at low levels, there is not that much unique going on here. This is in no way a bad installment, but neither did it blow me away. My final verdict will hence clock in at 3.5 stars, rounded down to 3 for the purpose of this platform.
This pdf of the Warrior Prestige Archetype-series clocks in at 10 pages, 1 page front cover, 1 page editorial/introduction (explaining the base concept of the series), 1.5 pages SRD, leaving us with 6.5 pages of content, so let's take a look!
What are Prestige Archetypes? Well, I reviewed the whole first series, so here's the tl;dr-version: They are prestige classes blended with one (or more) base-class(es) to result in a new, 20-level-class - much like you had modified the base class with an archetype. Get it? Yeah, not a hard concept to grasp, is it? Now personally, I use Prestige Classes with an emphasis on the PRESTIGE-component, archetypes more like a career path, but this differs wildly from how PrCs are handled in most cases. Hence, e.g. the PA: Assassin from the first subscription was pretty much a godsend for my party and spawned the legendary "Assassins of Porphyra," perhaps the best take on the assassin base class currently out there.
The Smuggler Guide as presented here gets full BAB-progression, d10, 6+Int skills, good Ref-and Will-saves and Wis-based prepared spellcasting at 4th level from the ranger's spell-list. In case you haven't figured this out on your own - this one would be based on the Bellflower Tiller, taking the pretty specific fluff of said class and making it more general - 3rd level nets the character the 1st favored community, with every 5 levels thereafter netting an additional one - these would be the adaptations of the favored barn ability of the base PrC.
At first level, the smuggler guide may designate a number of allies equal to 3+Wis-mod as part of his cell as a standard action. Members need to stay within 30 ft. of the guide to benefit from the class benefits. The smuggler guide may grant members of his cell a teamwork feat he knows - the targets do not need to be able to meet the prerequisites. 11th level extends this range to 60 ft., 13th level decreases the action it takes to a move action, 17th level increases the range to 90 ft. and 19th level allows for cell designation as a swift action. Usually, I'd complain here since, depending on the build, swift actions can be more valuable than move actions. However, the action economy-increase that goes swift is situated at a point where multiclassing is all but out of the question, so yeah -no issue. I really like how Bellflower Crop was expanded upon here and made more relevant. Additionally, smuggler guide receive a scaling cell defender bonus to atk and damage versus creatures that threaten his/her cell, beginning at +1 and scaling up by +1 at 5th level and every 5 levels thereafter. The scaling dispersal of this bonus is wider than the base PrC's, but works well with the class established here - since we get full BAB with the smuggler guide.
Interesting would be an increased base speed and better overland speed for all members of a cell at 2nd level, where the class also gets the first bonus teamwork feat (+1 every 4 levels thereafter). The base ranger tricks like evasion, endurance, woodland stride, camouflage are situated, one and all, at levels where they are appropriate - kudos for that!
4th level allows for the defensive use of the scaling cell defender bonus via move actions or an animal companion. As a capstone, the class shares evasion, improved evasion and camouflage with the whole cell. Evasion and Improved Evasion may seem slightly redundant, though there are some obscure options to negate either, so I won't complain here.
The pdf also provides solid FCOs for the core races - and sports sample builds of the class for level 1, 5, 10 and 15 - Saan Holo, a chaotic good human smuggler guide. Yeah, I had to smile as well. Even cooler, as a neat bonus, we get 3 sample settlements to use - with full statblocks - awesome!
This installment pretty much encapsulates the virtues of this series - it takes a overly specialized PrC and makes its concept work from first level on: Active ability with broad usefulness at 1st level? Check. Mathematically sound scaling and ability-dispersal? Check. Expanded focus? Check. Going one step further with a well written background for the sample NPC and sample settlements? Check. This is Carl Cramér at his best and you can't expect more from such a pdf: It excels at what it sets out to do. My final verdict will clock in at 5 stars + seal of approval.
It was good having the basic tiers of information to be provided for successful Knowledge checks; however, every monster, regardless of CR, had the same DCs listed on the cards. The rules are that these Knowledge checks are DC 10 + the CR of the creature, DC 5 + CR for common creatures (animals and goblins, for instance), DC 15 + CR for more rare creatures. This update would make these Knowledge cards more useful, as GMs would not have to look up the CR of the creature and add to the base DC 10 on the card.
We used this piece, although it was sort of borderline if we would go with it or not. The preview gives you a really good idea of what you'll get. It is above average IMO. No issues with the full size version.
You can judge this for yourself based on the large preview, but we opted against using it. For the relatively low price, if you want a foxfolk character and you like the preview, why not?
We ended up not using this because it doesn't look very good full size, even when trying it at just 1/6 of a page.
This is a pretty cool take on this creature. I don't know if it is in the best 10-15% of the art available here (which is what I usually reserve my 5-star reviews for) but it is close and the price pushes it to a 5-star.
Too simplistic/basic. You've got better options even among just Purple Duck's other art available here. If you absolutely need this specific creature, then look at the preview and see if it is meets your needs (maybe I'm missing something and you like it more) but otherwise feature the art of another creature instead or commission your own version of this creature if you can budget it.
Again, good art that isn't among the best available here (at least IMO) but it is above average and at this price a good value.
Not among the best art available here, but above average and if you need a Gremlin, this works. No issues with the full size version vs. the preview.
The style of this piece is more to my taste than many of Purple Duck's other stock art, mostly because it has more of a painted look with less prominent line-work. While I can't say this is in the top 10-15% of the art here, it is close and at the price it is, I can push this borderline 4/5 star review to the 5 star.
A good take on this creature. The linework is a bit too heavy for my taste, but you can be the judge of that using the preview/thumbnail.

What People Are Saying About New York Skyride
A Glimpse of the History of an Iconic Landmark
Our guide was very knowledgeable and we were able to see and learn a lot about the history of Grand Central Station. I enjoyed the photos of the station in the past but trying to look at them in a small size on an iPad while in a group of about 20 was not really workable. I would suggest enlarging them, printing them out and laminating them so that they could be passed around and everyone could see them clearly. I would certainly go on another of Ben's Bagel Tours. The fresh bagel was a nice touch.
Really good interesting trip made even better by brilliant sunshine !
Booked online before we left for New York. Very well organised and we were lucky enough to have brilliant sunshine to make the most of the superb views of New York. Statue of Liberty was brilliant to see up close and personal and Ellis Island was very interesting. Great that you can get off the boat and take as long as you want to wander round each place before you catch the next available ferry. All in all, a very enjoyable trip.
Extremely enjoyable and informative tour with Allie!
Great tour given by a great tour guide Allie who was extremely organised, informative and fun!
We want to go back to Ellis Island as so very interesting.
The constant rain that day did not damper the excitement of Ellis Island. We had already been to the Statue of Liberty which the rain felt more like a hurricane walking around it. But the exhibits and material at Ellis Island can take days to go around. What an interesting and informative place!
We enjoyed this fun and informative tour.
Our guide,Cody, was informative,yet personable and fun and most accommodating to all the clients on the tour. We would recommend this tour, and our guide, Cody.

"The Devil Wears Prada" director David Frankel was almost the last presenter at the Hollywood Breakthrough Awards last night. And he felt like it.
"I know this is the Hollywood Life Breakthrough Awards but it's gone on so long, it feels like we should be giving out Life Achievement Awards."
Still, he couldn't say enough about Emily Blunt. Literally. He talked at length about her basically taking over every aspect of the film, from costumes to script to who was in what scene and for how long.
Of course, it was all in good fun although bossy Blunt, her hands firmly on her hips onstage, joked that playing a mean and cruel fashion-obsessed rag mag assistant "was not much of a stretch for me."
She presented the Star of the Year Award to her "Devil" co-star Anne
Hathway, who admitted, like every single winner last night, to feeling
"grateful" and "thrilled" to be in the company of all the "amaaaaazing"
talent such as…
]]>"Dreamgirls" winner Jennifer Hudson and her director/presenter Bill Condon, "Babel" winners Rinko Kikuchi and Adriana Barraza and their director/presenter Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu.
Lauren Shuler Donner presented an award to "A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints" star Channing Tatum, who told an astonishing story about Donner helping him remove – and reinsert – a tampon during an audition. In his nose. Seems he didn't know to remove the cardboard parts…..
Sorry, I got distracted.
Still more talent: presenter Sydney Pollack and "Breaking and Entering" winner Vera Farmiga, winner Jessica Biel and her "The Illusionist" co-star/presenter Rufus Sewell, presenter Evan Rachel Wood and her winning "Running with Scissors" co-star Joseph Cross.
Whew. Frankly, even I'm amaaazed just writing the names of all these potential Oscar and Globe nominees, all spending an entire evening in the Henry Fonda Music Box theatre.
Such a star-studded turnout can mean only one thing: the awards campaigns are really heating up.
And trust me, being seen holding an award – any award – even an untelevised Breakthrough Award from Hollywood Life, a magazine with a relatively small (and I'm being polite here) circulation – counts big time.

The current version of this app supports only Android 4.1 and above.
I like the idea this about it I used this to download films to my tablet for when my daughter was in hospital. Every time I tried it kept saying download failed! Luckily the hospital had free wifi only to have the app/film restart my tablet every 10 mins when watching the film! Not impressed
Great movie app It's really good you can now download to your device. I would like to see the possibility to upgrade your SD films with an option to repurchase HD versions. Also any chance of adding a zoom function for people with 4.3 aspect ratio tablets!?
The app won't cast because it says we are offline. We are not. App fully updated. Not impressed that a lot of my films are "unavailable" due to being Wb films. Sort it out please.
Oh dear. Was a great app but now you get 30 seconds of film - freeze - 30 seconds of sound - freeze - 30 seconds of film - freeze. You get the point. And no response from the company. Wow this is awful! Especially when you consider this is a paid for service. I should be able to transfer my movies to another service.
Not happy It buffers a lot, it dose not seem that talk talk are putting much effort into this since they've got it. Unfortunately I've spent a lot of money on series and have to endure it but not recommended until fully sorted. * Still no improvement if anything has got worse*
Pos! Avoid Half 8 of my ultraviolet movies are missing. Costumer service offer no explanation at all. Google says "License issues between linked accounts". Would avoid untill all linked accounts become truely linked.

B1. OBJECTIVE The Proteomics Core aims to provide all investigators at the Children's/Harvard IDDRC with access to the state-of-the-art mass spectrometry-based proteomics required to advance studies in the cell and molecular biology of neurodevelopmental disabilities. This core provides instruction, consultation and service for the analysis of proteins by mass spectrometry, including protein identification, characterization of post-translational modifications, and quantification of proteins in samples with a wide range of complexities. Overview. Mass spectrometry-based proteomics is currently the most sensitive, quantitative and comprehensive technology available for the characterization of proteins. A major goal of Core B is to use proteomics to assist IDDRC investigators in the identification of protein complexes relevant to neuronal function, to measure the quantitative changes in protein composition that occur in the nervous system during development and under conditions that lead to developmental disabilities, and to identify functional posttranslational modifications of neuronal proteins. Proteomics is a rapidly progressing field and the Core is committed to introducing and implementing new methodology and applications as they become available. Dr. Steen, an Assistant Professor in the Neurobiology Program at Children's Hospital, and an expert in protein biochemistry and mass spectrometry, was recruited to setup and now act as director of the IDDRC Proteomics Core located within the Kirby Neurobiology Center at Children's. The Steen Laboratory is actively involved in proteomics research and has a computational/bioinformatics subgroup, which develops proteomics related statistical and data analysis tools and provides access to this statistical and computational expertise via the Core to all members of the IDDRC. The Core provides advice and the technology for protein quantification and comparative proteomics to IDDRC members. This Core has been designed to provide qualitative and quantitative mass spectrometry-based proteomics technologies. Since the inception of the Proteomics Core in 2005, these powerful proteomic technologies have been successfully used in many IDDRC laboratories for the proteomic analysis of cells and tissues to study intellectual and developmental diseases. The application of proteomic techniques to the study of the developing brain is poised to accomplish i) characterization of the full constellation of proteins in defined cells and tissues, ii) an assessment of changes in protein content or modifications as a function of disease or change in cell state, and iii) characterization of protein function. These investigations involve both large scale and directed proteomic experiments. Large scale studies are often quantitative, involving isotope tagging methods to find differentially expressed or modified proteins;whereas directed studies examine the structure of a single protein including its co-translational and post-translational modifications with respect to the protein's function. The proteomics Core provides services which encompass both these areas. Genome sequencing has provided the opportunity to address questions regarding brain development, disease and dysfunction using approaches previously impossible. To understand the molecular mechanisms of intellectual development and pathophysiology, IDDRC investigators can now directly interrogate the "proteome" of cells or tissues. This Core will provide a critical interactive center for IDDRC investigators by providing protein identification services, post-translational modification analyses and protein quantification.

When I feel like I'm about to die
(Hopefully at a ripe old age)
I'll eat some watermelon seeds.
And when Death decides to finally
pluck me from this luscious earth,
All I ask
Is that you open me up
So maybe you'll find something sweet
To remind you of
Our sticky fingers and
red smiles

BOSTON -- Bruins forward Patrice Bergeron saw an improved defensive effort from his teammates, along with a 33-save performance from Tuukka Rask, in their 1-0 overtime win over the Montreal Canadiens in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference semifinals.
Part of their success stemmed from one simple mantra: Stay out of the box.
The Bruins gave the Canadiens only one power-play opportunity Thursday, putting Montreal's previously prolific man-up unit on ice.
"It was something that we talked about," Bergeron said after Friday's team optional skate at TD Garden, "something that it's always like that, discipline is important this time of the year. But we've done a better job of playing solid within the whistles and the rules. It definitely took away their power-play chances, and that's something we had to do."
That discipline also helped the Bruins win one of the key matchups entering a crucial Game 4: They were finally able to shut down Canadiens defenseman P.K. Subban.
Subban enters Friday ranked fourth in NHL postseason points with 11, trailing only Anze Kopitar, Zach Parise and Evgeni Malkin. For the first time in the series, the Bruins neutralized Subban's impact, doing something that hadn't been done since Game 1 of Montreal's first-round series against Tampa Bay -- keeping him off the score sheet.
Aside from not allowing Subban multiple chances to work his magic on the power play, the Bruins also did what was required of them in their opponents' zone and through the neutral zone.
"Our forecheck really set the tone, not only in the way that we moved our feet, but also we won some battles," Bergeron said. "I think that's something we've talked about throughout the series, that we have to win more battles than we lose.
"Earlier on, we were losing too many of them, and [Thursday] we were a little better on that. It definitely created some more opportunities for us, but also on the defensive side, winning the battles, you get out of your zone a lot quicker."
That improved effort on 50-50 pucks paid offensive dividends. It netted the Bruins the game winner in OT as Carl Soderberg crashed the net, poking around at a rebound left at goalie Carey Price's feet and setting up Matt Fraser to swing around the net and knock home the only goal of the game.
"It's playoff hockey, it's tight hockey," Bergeron said. "The chances are slim and you need to make sure you take advantage when you do have them. They're playing some solid defense, as well, so it's about making sure we're playing with more confidence and getting more chances by getting guys around the net and fighting for that loose puck."
While the B's are happy to have won Game 4, their focus is on the next game in a series that's all even.
"It definitely gives you some momentum, to win a game in overtime like that, and tying the series," Bergeron said. "That being said, it's always about the next game and not getting too high or too low. We've talked about it so many times, I think it's the same thing again -- it's all about tomorrow's game now."

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
i am trying to do partnership with legally allowed foreign company to export their products in usa and i will distribute products in usa as distributer. i will have some percentage partnership in that company and i will be 100% owner as distributer in usa.
1-how should i form this two different business entity? LLC or corporation
2-what kind of terms and liability should be looking with the foreign company partner?
3- what kind of licenses do i need to bring products in usa?
4- any special forms or draft to offer investors to invest their money, not as partner(only profit and loss sharing, not voting or any rights to become ownership)
any guidance will be greatly appreciated.
I agree with my colleagues that you should consult an international business attorney in your area, and use your list of questions as a starting point. One additional consideration is whether the products that you intend to import violate anyone's intellectual property in the United States. Depending on the product, a patent or trademark search may be necessary.
Disclaimer: Nothing in this post should be construed as legal advice or as creating an attorney-client relationship. Do not rely on the opinions expressed in this post without discussing them with your attorney. Legal advice must be tailored to unique circumstances and this post is for general purposes only.
These questions are really beyond the scope of what the lawyers here at Avvo can handle. You need to sit down with a good business lawyer in your area to discuss your options, because there are many questions that need to be answered. There are quite a few good lawyers on Avvo that are in the Southland.
www.bayoaklaw.com. 510-208-5500. This answer does not create an attorney-client relationship. It is not legal advice, because it is only of a general nature. Please contact a lawyer qualified in your jurisdiction to discuss your situation in confidence, using your factual details. Avvo answers are only general legal responses. Item 9 of Avvo.com's Terms and Conditions are incorporated in this disclaimer as though it were printed here.
I specialize in incoming foreign trade with the US. Your questions are somewhat unclear (e.g. "two different business entity", or "legally allowed foreign company".) Some products require import licenses, some don't. Issuing shares is a complexity unto itself, and is also very fact specific depending on your situation and your goals. It is much too extensive for an Avvo answer.
The above is general legal and business analysis. It is not "legal advise" but analysis, and different lawyers may analyse this matter differently, especially if there are additional facts not reflected in the question. I am not your attorney until retained by a written retainer agreement signed by both of us. I am only licensed in California.

Arizona Diamondbacks
Report: Diamondbacks have eyes for Atlanta's Andrelton Simmons
Everyone knows the Arizona Diamondbacks need help at the shortstop position.
Most people agree the team would be willing to part with right fielder Justin Upton if it means landing a good, young shortstop.
They've been rumored to have interest in Texas' Elvis Andrus and/or Jurickson Profar, neither of whom the Rangers appear to be ready to deal.
In turn, the D-backs may have turned their attention to Atlanta's Andrelton Simmons, according to CBSSports.com baseball writer Danny Knobler.
Rangers wanted Upton enough that they tried to trade Olt for ATL's Simmons (who AZ wants). Braves wouldn't do it, tho.
— DKnobler (@DKnobler) November 12, 2012
Simmons, 23, hit .289 with 3 home runs and 19 RBI in 166 at bats last season, which was his first taste of the big leagues. He was the Braves' fourth-best prospect according to Baseball America entering the 2012 season, and was the National League's Rookie of the Month in June.
