European Conference of Judges: Which Council for Justice?
Rome (Italy), 26-27 March 2007
A judge can only exercise his/her duty being
fully independent. The principle of the separation of powers
also implies that the body entrusted with the protection of this
independence and with the management of the judiciary be itself
independent. Such independence cannot be seen as a privilege of
the judicial function but a fundamental principle for the sake
of the community : thus the citizens who turn to justice cannot
be satisfied only with an independent justice, but expect that
justice be fair and efficient as well. Therefore, to cope with
an always more litigious society, an in-depth reflection should
be led on the concrete means enabling to benefit from a quality
of justice
combining these fundamental values.
As the functioning of judicial institutions
is sometimes challenged in the Council of Europe's member
states, the Council of Europe should indeed reflect further,
within the framework of the CCJE's terms of reference, on the
existence, structure and role of these independent bodies, which
are at the crossroads of powers (and then essential elements of
the balance between these powers), while taking into account of
the situation particularly contrasted between member states. An
Opinion is to be prepared by the CCJE on this thematic in 2007
and the achievements of this Conference, to be focused on the
main issues and aiming at addressing the way these issues should
evolve in the future, will feed the preparatory works of this
composition and duties of the bodies vary from one country to
another, so as their relationships with the executive and
legislative powers, and even with the society. The name of these
bodies is discussed as such. As the concept is similar everywhere in essence, the title of the Conference is voluntarily
unclear on this point, in an attempt to include what some would
call "high councils of the judiciary", others "councils of
justice" or any other equivalent body. The work of the
Conference aims at clarifying this diversity.

Hmm…you say you want change? You wanna to step outside your comfort zone? See the world as you know it turned on it's head?
Yea, I know, that was me that said all that. Well, I got it alright and I'm just now beginning to feel right side up again, solid ground beneath my feet.
I don't want to sound negative because there have been good, exciting changes but as everyone knows, change can be hard and feel scary and uncomfortable, especially in the beginning.
In a nut shell, over the last 5 or 6 weeks, I got a my first full time job in over four years, had to let go of the shop girl gig and joined a local writers group.
All of that awesome, every little bit of it needed and overall scary as hell.

Rihanna congratulates Drake on album release
Listen to Drake on iHeartRadio | Listen to Rihanna on iHeartRadio
Rihanna's latest tweets aren't doing much to contradict rumors that she's rekindled things with rapper Drake.
On Monday, Rihanna posted a congratulatory message to her rumored flame, tweeting a photo of his album cover for Nothing Was The Same with the caption "Excellent work."
Congratulations champagnepapi Excellent work!! #NWTS http://t.co/a356ccduuL— Rihanna (@rihanna) September 30, 2013
It's not the first time the pop star has publicly acknowledged being a fan of his music. Back in August, she tweeted lyrics from his single "Hold On, We're Going Home," calling it her "new fave record, period."
The two have been seen together in recent months, following Rihanna's second breakup with Chris Brown. But when asked about the romance on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" last month, Drake called Rihanna "a great girl" and said they had what he called their "moment."

DiNapoli wants to use state retirement fund money to invest in New York businesses
State Comptroller Tom Di Napoli is touting the success of the In-State Private Equity Program, which has made more than a billion dollars available for investment over the last several years. Right now, Di Napoli says the state has about $400 million on hand and is calling for entrepreneurs to pitch their ideas and business plans.
The Equity Program was created by the legislature in 1999. Since Di Napoli took office, he says more than 250 companies have benefited from it, and around 4-thousand jobs either created or retained.

I dont really know why you so sure about it- all Russian scammers)
I am Ukrainain- same as Russian more or less, but its out of fashion and OUT OF CLASSY style to scam. At least if girl intellegent enough.
Cheap girls from villages you date- yes, you have all chances to be scammed, they prefer to get 100 USD by WU then to marry rich guy and get private jet)
so its all kind of woman here, dont mix and take attention more carefully, thats all.

I have dated a few Eastern European women and they are just lovely women. I find they are more stoic in their attitude, but definitely are smarter. If you like honest, direct women they are the right ones. If you are looking for affirmation and nurturing, I'd look elsewhere.
"in russian and third world society, is well know the concept gived by mothers, to daughters, when you get adult, search a man richer, that get you better life." - it's the most stupid thing I have ever heard about women from so called "third world society"...
Among all of my friends' families I see opposite situation. Wives earn the same amount of money or more. Moreover they take care about kids, clean appartment, cook, etc... so they do all housework what the wives from "the first world society" do, and besides they earn money as well...
Of course, there are a few women like you described above, but... there are such kind of women in ALL countries ALL over the world!!!
Don't be so narrow-minded and don't be insult people whom you don't know even!!!

there are nearly as many billionaires in moscow as in new york city. So, why bother with an American?
On the other hand, most women are seeking love - many in the wrong places - few are seeking wealthy men though there are plenty of exceptions to this. I am a doctor; I see it in my medical practice.
Hmmmm -:))))))
I am one of the eastern europien women here -:)
And: being a very successful internationally well known Head Hunter I earn much more than many of men here.
My kind regards to all who thinks that all russian or ukrainian women are scammers or looks for the money only,
hell 90% of the contact here is BS with the profiles block soon after activation then i get a ton of spam via email from something called seekbang. Not sure there r enough real people here but as a quick check on who is real and who is not if they have winked or emailed u but not viewed your profile its bullshit!

because, in russian and third world society, is well know the concept gived by mothers, to daughters, when you get adult, search a man richer, that get you better life.
Concept love is also death, society is based on hate more.
of course most of people don't even reply, not all russians are bad, of course, see, poor socities have more tendences to search money man, generally are people out of Moscow, or from poor areas originally.But alot western search also sugar daddy, and of course that site welcome all people, without doctor check up, so alot people like to live phantasy will find nothing, and alot no finding but no mean havent a men, i remind a romanian girl, she seemed internet, ...

The city of Armagh is a great blend of culture, cathedrals and craic, plus great pubs, a pretty tree-lined Mall and elegant museums
It's hard not to be impressed by Armagh's lineage – after all, the place has been the ecclesiastical capital of Ireland since the 5th century. Only an hour's drive from Belfast, this ancient city packs in the history, and the hilly streets and lanes, elaborate doorways and extravagant architecture give it an air of intrigue that's hard to beat.
Interested in St Patrick? Welcome to Armagh – Ireland's patron saint reputedly had a stone church built here back in 445AD. And at the very spot where St Patrick's Church of Ireland now stands, you can descend to a crypt from the Middle Ages, with sacred music, stone heads and animal carvings.
Think a friend might enjoy this article? Click to save and share
Of course, the title "ecclesiastical capital" doesn't exactly make Armagh sound like an urban metropolis… But don't be fooled: quirky pubs such as The Hole in the Wall, McCrum's Court and Red Ned's; family-run shops such as Emerson's Supermarket and TG Hawthorne's; a rich cultural scene; and a massive St Patrick's Day Festival keep things buzzing all year long
Walking is the best way to explore what the city has to offer, from the handsome collection of buildings in the Mall lined with beautiful sycamore, lime, beech and chestnut trees, to the elegant main streets of English Street, Scotch Street and Irish Street.
Spend a few day here and 1930s travel writer Richard Hayward's description of the city will echo in your ears: "The beauty of Armagh is the beauty of an old woman who has aged gracefully."

Some health experts suspect that riboflavin deficiency may impair the body's ability to absorb and use iron, and to further clarify the relationship between these nutrients, researchers invited 256 women, aged 19 to 25, to undergo screening for riboflavin deficiency and identified 123 women who were deficient.
The riboflavin-deficient women were randomly selected to receive one of three supplements daily for eight weeks:
Intake of iron did not change throughout the study.
Blood levels of riboflavin and hemoglobin, a marker of anemia, were measured at the start of the study and at 4, 8, and 12 weeks after supplementation began. The researchers found that:
This study suggests that even among healthy adults, low intake of riboflavin may be common. And for people who don't get enough riboflavin, improving intake may help reduce the risk of iron deficiency, another common nutrition issue. Use our tips to ensure you are getting enough:

First im download ati drivers 11.05 x64, and they install without problems.
Second im download ati SDK for x64 system, unpacked and change bashrc:
After im install pyrit from svn from author's guide: http://code.google.com/p/pyrit/wiki/InstallationCode:export PATH=$PATH:/etc/alternatives/gem-bin ATISTREAMSDKROOT=/AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx64 ATISTREAMSDKSAMPLESROOT=/AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx64/samples LD_LIBRARY_PATH=opt/oracle/instantclient_10_2:$AMDAPPSDKROOT/lib/x86_64 export AMDAPPSDKROOT export AMDAPPSDKSAMPLESROOT
After this im typing:
Ive got 2x Radeon 5670 in crossfire, and follow older guide on bt4 all works fine.Code:root@bt:~# pyrit list_cores Pyrit 0.4.0 (C) 2008-2011 Lukas Lueg http://pyrit.googlecode.com This code is distributed under the GNU General Public License v3+ The following cores seem available... #1: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)' #2: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)' #3: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)'
Thanks for any tips to properly install this on x64 system.

Ok, im re-make profile for this:
and nothing..Code:export AMDAPPSDKROOT export AMDAPPSDKSAMPLESROOT AMDAPPSDKROOT=/root/Desktop/AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx64 AMDAPPSDKSAMPLESROOT=/root/Desktop/AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx64/samples LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$AMDAPPSDKROOT/lib/x86_64
after il get 11.3 ati driver, install, check pyrit:
Guys who make worked pyrit on x64 system with ati cards please answer here.Code:export AMDAPPSDKROOT export AMDAPPSDKSAMPLESROOT AMDAPPSDKROOT=/root/Desktop/AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx64 AMDAPPSDKSAMPLESROOT=/root/Desktop/AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx64/samples LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$AMDAPPSDKROOT/lib/x86_64

Is it possible to give us the correct way to work the tool ?
If you're still having issues getting ATI SDK, Pyrit and Cal++ to work, follow my guide at:
Also, if you want to do it under the 32bit system just download the 32bit drivers / sdk and change the x64 file names / paths to the correct names (i.e. instead of x64 it's x86). Anyone have any questions or comments feel free to post and I'll try to help as best I can.

Farron Cousins | August 11, 2013
By Farron Cousins • Sunday, August 11, 2013 - 14:03
Even the coal industry itself has conceded that there is no "war on coal", but lawmakers in the coal-dependent state of Kentucky are still fighting this imaginary battle.
In the wake of President Obama's speech earlier this summer where he discussed the need to reduce our dependence on coal and work on ways to control coal plant pollution, a bi-partisan group of lawmakers in Kentucky sent a letter to the president last week, warning him that his "war on coal" would be devastating to their state.
The 50 state legislators who signed onto the letter accuse the president of launching an "unfair attack on coal," which the lawmakers argue will have a devastating effect on their state economy.
The bi-partisan group told the president that the coal industry is responsible for as much as $10 billion in "yearly" economic activity, although that number only represents the year 2010, and subsequent years have seen a sharp decline in the profitability of the industry's operations in Kentucky.
While it is true that coal currently plays an important role in the Kentucky economy, using that as the sole reason to allow coal extraction to continue unfettered is a very poor plan. Currently, 22 counties in Kentucky have active coal mines, and together employ nearly 13,000 workers. The total number of workers is relatively small, but economically speaking, every job creates a ripple effect throughout the economy, boosting local businesses across the state.
But you can't have a discussion on economics without considering things like opportunity cost and overall economic health. The lawmakers that sent the letter to Obama conveniently omitted these facts, as they completely destroy their case that coal is necessary for Kentucky.
In a nutshell, the coal industry is a net negative for the state of Kentucky. When considering only the direct costs that the coal mining industry encounters, which includes research and development, training, and repairing the infrastructure that is destroyed or degraded during coal mining and moving, the industry is in the red.
But the true cost of coal for Kentucky is more than what the industry spends or puts back into the economy. The residents who aren't involved in the industry in any way are paying a very large price.
Coal mining and coal dumping sites are riddled with both poverty and exceedingly higher than average rates of cancer. Both of these external costs are shifted onto the taxpayers and federal government, who will ultimately have to pay for assistance and healthcare for those affected by the industry's activities.
And it gets even worse. Kentucky, as a direct result of the coal industry, is home to Congressional districts that rank last in the country in life expectancy, general well-being, and emotional and physical health. For obvious reasons, the lawmakers didn't include those little facts in their letter to the president.
As if that's not enough, the state ranks fourth in the country for toxic power plant emissions, and is second in the nation for the release of arsenic, a cancer-causing heavy metal releasesd into the environment from power plants and mountaintop removal mining.
If jobs are the only concern of the lawmakers, then shifting the state to clean, renewable energy would create more jobs than the coal industry currently provides for the state. But if they are simply trying to preserve the campaign cash that flows freely from the industry, then they are right on point.

Much more rapidly than might be imagined.
Revolutionary new technologies are en-route that can turn future cars into power plants, able to sell electricity when suitably parked. No wires needed. Cars, truck and buses might even pay for themselves.
Since these are hard to believe breakthroughs, a means has been required to increase support for the best of them.
An engine has been invented that needs no fuel. It could trigger a perpetual commotion.
See NO FUEL ENGINE at www.aesopinstitute.org
Since these engines will not get hot, after a prototype is validated by an independent lab, small plastic desktop piston engines are planned that will run a radio and recharge cell phones.
Metal versions are expected to power homes 24/7 and replace diesel generators. They also may provide emergency generators and an on-board recharge for electric cars.
Making the "impossible" possible will open a surprisingly practical path to rapid reduction in the need for fossil fuels.

The Perpetual Scam Machine still spinning away after 37 years
"Where's the magic overunity transformer? You've said you've had one working since 2004.
"Where's the magic overunity tuning fork? You've said you've had that working since early 2007.
"Where's the magic overunity motor? You've said you've had that since mid 2007.
"Where's the magic ambient heat engine? Over a year ago you said you had a car that ran 4800 miles on it.
"You said the transformer broke. You said you never built another one because it so much faster and easier to build your magic tuning forks. That was three years ago. After a year and a half of the tuning fork ruse, you switched to the ambient heat scam. The car, the outboard motor, the golf cart you said ran from ambient heat alone, you cannot produce for inspection. You told the childishly ridiculous story that the inventor removed the engine, and sold the car. The car is gone but where is the magic motor that you say propelled it? Was it siezed with the outboard motor and golf cart by agents of big oil or aliens? And now you're onto the hydrino scam…"

"For the past five years Mark Goldes has been promising generators 'next year.' He has never delivered. Like 'Alice in Wonderland' there will always be jam tomorrow, but never jam today.
- Penny Gruber, December 2008
- Penny Gruber's comment was written almost five years ago - but it's just as true today - except that MPI, Goldes' corporation that he claimed would bring in one billion dollars in revenue from his imaginary generator in 2012, is now defunct, having never produced any "Magnetic Power Modules" - just as his company called "Room Temperature Superconductors Inc" is also now defunct, having never produced any "room temperature superconductors." Evidently there's a limit to how many years in a row the same company can claim it will finally have something to demonstrate "next year." Now Goldes has a new scamporation, Chava Energy.

Devils Advocate
After reading environment and energy blogs for the past year or so, I've come to the conclusion that there is a war on coal. It's being waged by oil and gas and environmental NGOs like EDF, NRDC, Sierra Club, etc and various think tanks. Many media groups can be included in this as well. Their substitute for coal is shale fracked natural gas. Ironically, the nut in shale is oil and natural gas liquids not pure gas - so the argument is silly. Some of the NGOs have backed off as environmental repercussions become blatantly obvious for shale gas production. But nothing eases the conscious more than a big fat check in the form of a tax deductible gift.
Coal producing states can easily frame the argument as those tree hugging liberals taking away its hard working resident's livelihoods. Forgetting that this so called war is really being funded by oil and gas.
I read something similar about Keystone. The biggest opponent is… rail. They've been running around and funding anyone who will oppose the pipeline.
Michael Berndtson replied on Permalink
not really true
Rail can be cheaper than pipeline transport for certain deliveries. Oil and gas looks at pipelines and rail as options. Pipeline companies are doing fine regardless of rail. That's been the case since the late 1990s when oil and gas divested those assets
AnOilMan I have a question for you. Do you work for a Canadian Oilsands company? Not that I really care - its just that anonymous commenters who do rapid replies are typically PR flacks and image consultants.

Chronicles of Mark Goldes, the Perpetual Scam Machine
1976: Goldes seeks investors with fraudulent claims to have developed a production-ready wind-propelled, wind-rechargeable motorcycle that can reach 60 mph:
1998: Goldes successfully defrauds taxpayers of over four hundred thousand dollars by swindling the witless US Air Force with his "room temperature superconductor" scam.
2005: Goldes seeks investors with fraudulent claims that his company, MPI, is developing "Magnetic Power Modules":
2008: Goldes seeks investors with fraudulent claims that "MPI is also developing breakthrough magnetic energy technologies including POWERGENIE (Power Generation of Electricity by Nondestructive Interference of Energy)." Goldes claims to have "run an electric car for more than 4,800 miles with no need to plug-in." According to Goldes, "[MPI] Revenues from licenses and Joint Ventures are conservatively projected to exceed $1 billion annually by 2012."
2009: Goldes seeks investors with fraudulent claims that his latest scamporation, Chava Energy, "has been developing enhanced theoretical and practical paths that lead towards commercialization of energy conversion systems that utilize hydrinos." He now claims to be "developing a Self Powered Internal Combustion Engine – SPICE(tm) powered by hydrinos."

"Penny Gruber"
This person who posts under the name Penny Gruber as well as others has been an internet troll for many years.
She attacks unproven technologies, most of which are inventor's delusion. She is sometimes correct.
Her repeated accusations of fraud and scam are in this case and others simply false.
Partial truths and innuendo are used to back up the assertions, including unsubstantiated claims, guilt by association, etc. Much of what is quoted is simply untrue.
Thinking that a lie told hundreds of times will gain validity, these attacks are posted often.
Entrepreneurs working with inventors making claims of breakthrough technologies make mistakes, sometimes big ones. We have been no exception.
Material on the AESOP Institute website reflects decades of experience. That site opens the door to technologies with a high probability of making major contributions to accelerating a sharp reduction in the need for fossil and radioactive fuels.

Material on aesopinstitute.org reflects decades of sheer fraud
[Mark Goldes:" You have never presented] "the non-existant generators you have long claimed that operate without any conventional fuel… and you never will. The rotary devices you claim have been working since 2007 never made it to a test lab and never will. Neither did your claimed and unseen hydrino contraptions. The car you claimed went 5000 miles on ambient heat: disappeared, and is not available for inspection. Neither is available the 206HP outboard motor you claimed ran for a week, nor is available the magic golf cart you claimed also ran powered only by ambient heat. The transformer you claimed was a working OU device in 2004: broke years ago and you can't be bothered to fix it or build another to submit to test. Why? You say it is because you are in a hurry to get to market. That's some hurry you are in. You say you've had working machines for almost five years now, and can't evidence a single one. By the way, where is the contraption that you stated would be tested by EarthTech following completion of tests by Lee Felsenstein the week of 6/25/2008?"

"Penny Gruber" might learn something from Theodore Roosevelt
"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." Theodore Roosevelt
Keyto Clearskies replied on Permalink
But Mr. Goldes, you are simply a con artist and nothing more
Mark, you are not striving to accomplish any triumphant deeds at all, but only to swindle and defraud people with your endless scams, just as you have done for decades. Here's a sample of your shameless dishonesty from 2007:
"MPI is also developing breakthrough magnetic energy technologies including POWERGENIE™ (Power Generation of Electricity by Nondestructive Interference of Energy). Based upon proprietary discoveries in MPI's labs, generators are being designed that operate continuously, without fuel…"
"Prototypes of the non-magnetic system have been in operation for more that one year and successfully run an electric car for more than 4,800 miles with no need to plug-in. Magnetic system prototypes are currently being developed in the laboratories. A breakthrough proof-of-concept POWERGENIE example has been evaluated by Lee Felsenstein, EE"
"Revenues from licenses and Joint Ventures are conservatively projected to exceed $1 billion annually by 2012.
2008: $25 million; 2009: $100 million; 2010: $300 million; 2011: $600 million, 2012: $1 billion."
Mark Goldes replied on Permalink
What was called POWER GENIE is now an issued U.S. Patent and is still part of a development program.
The car that claimed to have run 4,800 miles was indeed a scam. On us by an inventor. We made the mistake of publicizing his work before we learned of our mistake.
Revenue projections were based on a large approved injection of capital which never materialized. All such projections in Business Plans are subject to change by circumstances beyond the control of entrepreneurs. That capital source was controlled by the Chinese government, unknown to us at the time, and unexpectdly limited investment to Chinese firms.
Magnetic generators are slowly moving toward validation and markets. Joseph Romm has pointed out that new science typically takes 20 to 30 years to move into the market as practical technology. He has been proven correct. But to the suprise of many the new science has opened doors to solid-state and mechanical generators that will play an important role in energy production in the future.
We have made mistakes aplenty and certainly errors of judgement, but never has there been fraud or dishonesty on my part or by the firms I led.
The history of cold fusion is an excellent case study in the difficulty of moving new science and technology into practical products and the market. See lenr-canr .org for solid science that continues to be ridiculed and disbelieved by most of the scientific community.
Surival of humanity requires breakthrough technoloies that disrupt and end the need for fossil and radioactive fuels. In spite of trolls and false acusations they are being born worldwide. I am proud to work with a few of the inventors and scientists who are changing the world in ways that will become clear in due time.

Ultraconductors are very real and passed USAF tests.
Our polymer room temperature Ultraconductors were also reproduced independently by Fractal Systems which made almost 1,000 samples for the Air Force. That program is in the process of revival. For those that are curious, see a bit about them at MOVING BEYOND OIL on the AESOP Institute website. Cryogenic superconductors have had billions of dollars in support and we were severely underfunded as few scientists could believe they were possible. With the exception of every scientist who visited our labs.
To your surprise and that of many others, the cold fusion work by Andrea Rossi is increasingly likely to prove real. The U.S. government seems to quietly be one of his major customers.

Most Ludicrous Scamvention: Mark Goldes' "POWERGENIE"
One of the most laughable of Mark Goldes' many invention scams is his "POWERGENIE" sound-powered generator. The brilliant idea of this revolutionary breakthrough is to blow a horn at a magnetized tuning rod, designed to resonate at the frequency of horn, and then collect the electromotive energy produced by the vibrations of the rod.
I'm not making this up.
POWERGENIE tuning rod engine explained - from the patent:
[The device incorporates] "an energy transfer and multiplier element being constructed of a ferromagnetic substance possessing magnetostrictive characteristics, magnetoelastic characteristics,or both; and having a natural resonance, due to a physical structure whose dimensions are directly proportional to the wavelength of the resonance frequency…"
"In this resonant condition, the rod material functions as a tuned waveguide, or longitudinal resonator, for acoustic energy."
"Ferrite rod 800 is driven to acoustic resonance at the second harmonic of its fundamental resonant frequency by acoustic horn 811, resulting in acoustic wave 816 within the rod having two nodal points. Each nodal point exhibits instantaneous acoustic pressure opposite the other nodal point. Bias magnet 801 produces magnetic flux 802 extending axially through both nodal points developed within rod 800. Since both nodal points within the rod develop oppositely signed instantaneous acoustic pressure, the electromotive force developed via the magnetoelastic effect at each nodal point is oppositely directed. Coils 820 and 821 are wound oppositely and connected in electrical series, such that their developed electromotive forces add. The sum electromotive force of coils 820 and 821 develops electrical current and power in resistive load 830."
- But the patent doesn't tell us who is going to volunteer blow the horn at the rod all day. Perhaps it will come with an elephant.
Goldes claimed in 2008 that this wonderful triumph of human genius would bring his company one billion dollar in annual revenue by 2012.

I had my first experience with Fairytale Brownies last Christmas. My wife's company had them in the office for the holidays. My wife knowing that I'm a brownie lover, brought me home one of each flavor. I must admit, they were the best brownies I've ever tasted. I went through them way too fast - the caramel was my favorite flavor. I asked my wife if they had anymore, but to my disappointment they were gone (not surprisingly!). Fairytale brownies are the best brownies hands down!

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Thousands of people with stars in their eyes are in Columbus to audition for NBC's "America's Got Talent."
The Columbus Dispatch reports (http://bit.ly/T4icbM ) that close to 5,000 people from Ohio and nearby states are expected to show up for the open audition on Sunday.
It's the first time the show has had tryouts in Columbus. The city is one of 14 that the show is stopping in to find new acts.
There are no age limits, but the performers get just 90 seconds to impress the show's producers.
Among those waiting for their shot at stardom are plenty of singers, dancers, guitar players, rappers, comedians, and even a few animal acts.

I have an m15x also, and my internal wifi card works perfectly out of the box, I also paid for the upgraded intel wifilink 5300 model though.
yup works flawlessly
I have an alienware m11x r2 with the same wireless card, what does linux say your card is? Mine comes back as a Broadcom 4353 (rev 01) with the lspci command. I am kinda having trouble with this card, and want to make sure it actually is the same card.
what are you using for a graphics card? Are you using the new Sandy Bridge, not sure on if the GT 240M is an optimus card so i was curious. I have been having issues with my GT555M using Intel HD 3000.

Every relationship has ups and downs—including in the bedroom. Stop worrying and start getting busy.
-David Sbarra, Ph.D, YouBeauty.com
Let's begin this month's column with a thought experiment. I'll give you four words, then you take a minute to free associate to these words. Let any images or thoughts come into your mind.
Here we go: WOMEN, MEN, SEX and RELATIONSHIPS.
What do you have? I suspect that most of us started to think about widely-held sex and gender stereotypes within relationships. Perhaps you thought about a seriously amorous guy constantly trying to convince his wife or girlfriend to have more sex with him. Perhaps you thought about who initiates sex more in your relationship.
Or, maybe you thought longingly about how you used to have more sex with your partner, but he just doesn't seem that interested anymore.
Despite what our gender stereotypes tell us (amorous man, headachy woman), I've spoken with many women who have told me that it's their male partners who have lost steam in the bedroom. It's true: men can lose interest in sex, too.
Read Using What You've Got to Get What You Want
Observing a change in frequency of sex can leave many women feeling like a failure for not arousing their man's true horny self. It can prompt troubling self-doubt: Is he attracted to me? Does he still find me sexy? Is he having an affair? Why is he looking at pornography when he can have his way with me?
In trying to sort through all of this, I turned to the research literature to help find out what's "normal" in terms of changes in men and women's sexual desire within a relationship. Turns out, this is not an easy question to answer. But there are a few trends that keep cropping up:
Men want sex more. Consistent with the commonly-held stereotype, men, on average, have more desire for the physical act of sex than women. Men think about sex more than women do and are more likely than women to emphasize the importance of the physical act of sex relative to the emotional side of sex. In short, men have far more permissive sexual standards than women, and this is relatively well-known.
Assumptions lie. These average differences between genders mask substantial variability within each gender. Said differently, the sexual desire of any two women is likely to be more different than the sexual desire between any man and woman. This fact suggests that our stereotypes about gender and sex are mostly wrong.
