The board of directors at BSkyB has unanimously voted to keep James Murdoch as CEO after meeting in London today and also approved a $1.6 billion stock buyback. Both moves were expected; Murdoch is deputy COO of News Corp, which owns 40% of the UK satcaster's shares. Murdoch's fate has been in question since the News of the World phone-hacking scandal rocked the media world, with allegations that Murdoch, in charge of News Corp's UK newspaper division, might have known about the practice and lied about it to the UK parliament. The re-appointment of Murdoch comes the same day fresh allegations arose that then-News of the World editor Rebekah Brooks gave a cell phone to the mother of an 8-year-old murder victim that was eventually hacked by the paper's reporters. Brooks, who rose to head of News Corp's News International unit, resigned last month and eventually was arrested for her part in the scandal. She is now out on bail and denies the latest allegation. Meanwhile, the board's authorization of the stock buyback means News Corp likely will sell some of its stock in BSkyB to avoid increasing its stake — which certainly would be unpopular with the UK public as well as other shareholders in the current climate.
UPDATE: James Murdoch To Remain BSkyB Chairman; Stock Buyback Also Approved
3 Comments
Looks like the Board of BSkyB is just as unanimously greedy and venal as the Murdoch clan, what a surprise. And after James Murdoch's lies ("misstatements") in front of Parliament last week and a fresh NOTW scandal today, another hacked cell phone of a murdered girl's family has surfaced. Pretty.
The czar we know is better than the czar we don't know.
So remember, kids. Hacking and invading someone's privacy is only wrong when you're not rich or don't have a political axe to grind. (Alluding to those Westboro thugs with the last comment.)

More tigers live in private captivity in Texas than in the wild, where conservationists estimate that around 3,000 of the endangered animals remain. No one knows for sure how many big cats — including tigers, lions, panthers, cheetahs, leopards and others — are kept today in backyards and apartments across the United States, but estimates run as high as 20,000. (The Endangered Species Act does not prohibit domestic trade in captive-bred wildlife.)
A call to push for Legislation that would bolster regulations on big cat ownership in the United States.
Currently, only 28 states fully ban big cat possession, seven states do not address the issue at all. The remaining states fall somewhere in between.

Sex differences in response to maximal exercise stress test in trained adolescents
Nutrition, diet, physical health and endocrinology
Sex comparisons between girls and boys in response to exercise in trained adolescents are missing and we investigated similarities and differences as a basis for clinical interpretation and guidance.
A total of 24 adolescent females and 27 adolescent males aged 13–19 years underwent a maximal bicycle exercise stress test with measurement of cardiovascular variables, cardiac output, lung volumes, metabolic factors/lactate concentrations and breath-by-breath monitoring of ventilation, and determination of peak VO2.
Maximum heart rate was similar in females (191 ± 9 bpm) and males (194 ± 7 bpm), cardiac index at maximum exercise was lower in females (7.0 ± 1.0 l/min/m2) than in males (8.3 ± 1.4 l/min/m2, P < 0.05). Metabolic responses and RQ at maximum exercise were similar (females: 1.04 ± 0.06 vs. males: 1.05 ± 0.05). Peak VO2 was lower in females (2.37 ± 0.34 l/min) than in males (3.38 ± 0.49 l/min, P < 0.05). When peak VO2 was normalized to leg muscle mass sex differences disappeared (females: 161 ± 21 ml/min/kg vs. males: 170 ± 23 ml/min/kg). The increase in cardiac index during exercise is the key factor responsible for the greater peak VO2 in adolescent boys compared to girls.
Differences in peak VO2 in adolescent boys and girls disappear when peak VO2 is normalized to estimated leg muscle mass and therefore provide a tool to conduct individual and intersex comparisons of fitness when evaluating adolescent athletes in aerobic sports.
Physical activity and training is important for initiating and sustaining cardiovascular health. As such, encouragement from childhood and the possibility to participate in sports activity is a major health issue which must be sustained. Reaching adolescence, however, increasing expectations and competitive demands have gradually emerged as an important aspect of recreational sports in the young. During the past decades there has been a gradual increase in the number of teenagers participating in competitive sports and the number of female athletes has increased in aerobic team sports
Adolescence is the age interval at which the young sport competitor starts building local and national team careers, prompting coaches and physical trainers to interpret test results and understand and take into account possible sex-specific characteristics. At the moment, however, detailed knowledge about sex-related differences in adolescent exercise physiology is limited. Maximal oxygen uptake has been extensively investigated in children
This impedes our interpretation of the cardiovascular and respiratory responses to exercise in adolescent girls compared to boys and limits our guidance in exercise programs in adolescents in competitive sports. It is essential to acknowledge possible differences between male and female participants which, if present, must be taken into account when planning and performing physical exercise programs for the adolescent athlete. Differences between male and female participants may prompt the development of sex-specific programs, and be valuable when evaluating training levels and differentiating pathology from normality in youth sports.
Because clinical performance reference data are missing we performed a detailed comparative characterization of cardiovascular, respiratory and metabolic responses to maximum exercise in aerobically trained adolescent boys and girls, with the aim being to identify similarities and differences as a basis for clinical interpretation and guidance.
Subjects and physical characteristics
One female participant was diagnosed with a Wolf-Parkinson-White type pre-excitation but was included in the study as she was completely asymptomatic. She was referred for cardiac electrophysiological evaluation. Her other exams and test results, beside the ECG, were completely normal. All other subjects had a normal medical history, a normal physical exam, and normal pre-study echo-cardiographic exam.
All exercise trials were terminated due to general fatigue with maximum leg fatigue, whereas no trial was stopped prematurely because of dyspnea, chest pain or cardiac arrhythmias.
Age was similar in males and females, the males being taller and heavier but with similar body mass index compared to female athletes (Table
Resting cardiopulmonary and metabolic characteristics
Female subjects exhibited a lower systolic blood pressure (124 ± 11 mmHg; mean ± SD) and higher resting heart rate (77 ± 8 bpm) compared to male participants (137 ± 13 mmHg and 71 ± 11 bpm, respectively; P < 0.05), whereas diastolic blood pressure (females: 74 ± 8 mmHg vs. males: 72 ± 11 mmHg) and resting cardiac index (females: 3.8 ± 0.8 l/min/m2 vs. males: 4.1 ± 1.0 l/min/m2) did not differ between sexes (Figure

In this investigation we demonstrate expected sex differences in the response to a maximal bicycle stress exercise test in trained adolescents
The cardiopulmonary and metabolic response to a maximal bout of exercise has been well studied in adults and differences between sexes have been previously described
In this investigation, we demonstrate lower resting and working blood pressures and higher resting heart rates in females, resting ECG patterns are similar except for QTc which is longer in females. Furthermore, aerobically trained adolescent girls and boys increase their heart rate and lactate levels to similar limits, being slightly higher in boys but without any detectable differences abroad the age-span investigated, in response to an aerobic maximal stress exercise test. Females and males exhibit similar maximum heart rates, which translate into a greater cardiac index in boys, being the one key factor leading to a greater peak VO2. The metabolic compensation, however, demonstrated a very similar adaption as pH, HCO3
-, and the respiratory ratio (RQ) exhibit identical responses. Taken together, a pattern very similar to that observed in aerobically trained young adults
In terms of peak VO2, we observed absolute values similar to those previously reported in this age group
Finally, when comparing the maximal exercise stress tests between girls and boys, we made the subjective observation that boys exhibit an operator-perceived degree of exercise stress that is more pronounced than in girls. Accordingly, the operator, without taking into account physiological measurements during the test would feel that the boys put in a greater effort than the girls, and that the girls
In conclusion, we demonstrate that the main factors to realize when working with aerobic training programs in female adolescents are: 1) resting blood pressure is lower, resting heart rate is higher and the ECG exhibits longer QTc interval when compared to males; 2) in response to a maximal bicycle exercise stress test maximum heart rate, maximum blood lactate levels and metabolic compensation are similar in adolescent females and males; 3) the increase in cardiac index during exercise is the key factor responsible for the greater absolute peak VO2 in adolescent boys compared to girls; 4) observed difference in peak VO2 per kilogram body mass comparing boys and girls disappears when peak VO2 is normalized to leg muscle mass only. This finding suggests that peak VO2 normalized to leg muscle mass could be a useful measure when comparing the degree of fitness between adolescent boys and girls in aerobic sports; and 5) there is a subjective operator-perceived impression that girls do not reach full exertion during testing, but physiological measurements clearly show a level of exertion similar to that of boys.
Study subjects
A total of 24 adolescent female and 27 adolescent male floor-ball players, i.e. an activity with a high dynamic (aerobic) component and a low/moderate static (anaerobic) component
Study protocol
The subject reported to the study room and underwent a health interview regarding family and personal medical history and a physical exam. The subject's height, weight and results of segmental body impedance were recorded. A standardized cardiac ultrasound examination was then performed.
Thereafter, a peripheral venous catheter was inserted into an ante-cubital vein and basal blood samples drawn. A baseline supine resting 12-lead ECG and blood pressure was recorded and the subject thereafter placed on the exercise bicycle instrumented with 12-lead exercise ECG electrodes, blood pressure measurement cuff, and a mouth-piece and nose-clip so that breath-by-breath ventilation, O2 and CO2 gas-exchange, and pulmonary blood flow by inert gas rebreathing technique could be measured.
The subjects then performed the exercise bicycle test using the same exercise protocol, starting at basal 60 watts load with 20 watts increments per minute, in both females and males. The subjects performed the test until self-experienced total exertion, and maximum stress of dyspnea, leg fatigue, and chest pain recorded by means of a modified visual-analog Borg scale ranging from 0 (no perceived stress) to 20 (maximum perceivable stress)
Total body impedance
Subject body composition, i.e. body fat, water, and muscle composition, including segmental body and limb analysis of fat and muscle masses were measured by bioimpedance using a Tanita Body Composition Analyser BC 418MA device (Tanita, Helsinge, Denmark)
Blood tests
Before the exercise test baseline blood samples were collected for the analysis of blood chemistry including red blood cell count, hematocrit, total hemoglobin, mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration, leukocyte count, platelet count, Na, K, creatinine, and forearm venous blood gas chemistry (ABL 700, Radiometer, Copenhagen, Denmark) for metabolic assessment (base-excess, HCO3
-, pH) and blood lactate concentration
All subjects underwent a pre-study echo-cardiographic exam. A commercially available ultrasound apparatus (Vivid i, GE Vingmed, Horten, Norway) was employed for echo-cardiographic examinations using a standard phased 2.5 MHz multi-frequency transducer. The examinations were performed with the participant lying at the left lateral recumbent position at the end of expiration and the images acquired according to the recommendations of the European Society of Echocardiography from the parasternal and apical views
Blood pressure
Resting blood pressure was recorded in the supine position using a semi-automatic blood pressure recording device (Omron 705IT, Omron Healthcare). During exercise systolic blood pressures were recorded using a blood pressure cuff and an ultrasound Doppler flow measurement probe positioned over the radial artery.
Exercise stress bicycle setup and ECG-recording
The stress test was performed on a Rodby Ergometer Bike RE990 stress test bicycle with a pre-loaded protocol (60 watt start / 20 watt increment/min) and an integrated standard 12-lead ECG recording (GE Case, GE Healthcare, Sweden). The 12-lead ECG was recorded at supine rest and during the whole exercise protocol to evaluate ST-segment deviations, arrhythmia and maximum heart rate.
Ventilation, gas-exchange, pulmonary blood flow and cardiac output
During the exercise stress test the subjects were connected to an Innocor® device (Innovision, Odense, Denmark) through a breathing mouth piece with continuous inspiratory and expiratory gas sampling for analysis and flow measurement. Mouth-circuit breathing was secured by the subject wearing a tight nose-clip to prevent nasal ventilation. Ventilation, O2, and CO2 exchange was measured on a breath-by-breath basis and stored on the hard drive for subsequent analysis. Peak VO2 was derived as the average VO2 obtained during the final 30 seconds of exercise and normalized to total body weight, lean body weight, i.e. fat free mass, and estimated leg muscle mass respectively. Using the same Innocor® device, pulmonary blood flow was measured at baseline with the subject seated on the bicycle ergometer and at maximal exercise using the inert gas rebreathing technique. To measure pulmonary blood flow the subject performed 30 seconds of closed circuit rebreathing from a bag containing a gas mixture of 50% O2, 5% N2O (soluble gas), 1% SF6 (insoluble gas) in N2 diluted with ambient room air. The rebreathing bag volume was set individually in each subject as 30% above the expected tidal volume. Pulmonary blood flows and ventilated lung volumes were calculated using standard formulas as a part of the Innocor® software (Innovision, Odense, Denmark)
Statistical analysis
Statistical analysis was performed using the Statistica v 10 (Statsoft Inc., Tulsa, USA). Unpaired t-test with correction (Newman-Keuls) for multiple comparisons was used to detect differences in selected variables between female and male subjects. Primary variables pre-defined for analysis were: Anthropometric data, peak VO2, peak VO2 per kilogram body mass, peak VO2 per kilogram lean body mass, peak VO2 per kilogram leg muscle mass, maximum heart rate and blood pressure during exercise, ventilation, ventilated lung volumes, ventilated lung volumes per kilogram body mass, changes in metabolic; i.e. base-excess and pH and lactate levels. ANOVA analysis with post-hoc testing corrected for multiple comparisons (Newman-Keuls) was used to analyze responses to exercise and effect of sex. P < 0,05 was considered statistical significant.

CocoWalk Sells for $87.5 Million
What to do about CocoWalk? That's a problem its fifth owners in 18 years must figure out now. The Coconut Grove shopping mall sold yesterday for $87.5 million. The buyers are led by Maryland-based Federal Realty Investment Trust, which has an 80 percent stake, and was bought from PMAT Real Estate Investments. PMAT had purchased the property in 2006 at the height of the last real-estate boom for $87 million.
Opened in 1990 in the then-artsy Grove, CocoWalk originally was a success, but it soon became a symbol of what happens when developers and businesses get a little too starry-eyed and lose touch with a neighborhood's original character. Today the center is a collection of tourist-friendly chain shops and restaurants that longtime locals view with disdain. Tenants include Gap, Fat Tuesday, Cheesecake Factory, Starbucks, and Victoria's Secret. According to the Miami Herald, the mall has a 20 percent vacancy rate, almost unheard of in other parts of Miami as the retail market continues to explode. But a Cinépolis movie theater, which shows a mix of Hollywood hits and indie fare, has proven to be a success in recent years.
From the news release, it seems Federal plans to help integrate the property back into the neighborhood.
"Partnering with neighborhood experts, we see significant opportunity to transform and remerchandise a property at the center of Miami's most authentic district," Jim Taylor, the company's executive vice president, said in the statement.
"Local, regional, and national retailers and restaurateurs are increasingly seeking walkable environments where they can connect year-round and throughout the day with their customers. Their enthusiasm for CocoWalk's location will drive a powerful merchandising mix that captures the Grove's vibe," added minority equity partner Michael Comras.
A renovation is planned, though no details are available.
However, the Grove is undergoing a bit of a resurgence. Hip local establishments like Panther Coffee and Harry's Pizzeria are slated to move into the neighborhood, plans are still underway to reopen the historic Coconut Grove Playhouse, and starchitects like Bjarke Ingels and Rem Koolhaas are behind the designs for new residential towers.
In other words, it seems like the new owners certainly want a piece of the new Grove and hope to find a way to make the out-of-place CocoWalk fit the neighborhood's reemerging character.

Giranha Plant is a peaceful female version of the Piranha Plant.
Giranha Plants are Gardenia's plants she has created. They are seen in her garden and sometimes their are spiky vine versions of these plants guarding her castle. They have green lips and a blue pattern on her head with pink polka-dots. They sometimes are in a purple pot with Gardenia's initial on it. It may be hard to see but they have square teeth instead of sharp ones. There is a Giranha Plant that tries to protect Gardenia named Grace Giranha. There is also a reptile-like Giranha Plant that serves as a pet for Micool known as Grand Giranha.

To kick-off Papa Murphy's Flavors of Summer Campaign, we designed, coded, and wrote a custom landing page that featured playful copy, bright summer colors, and clear calls to action--all while staying within the brand's guidelines. We also integrated custom social media functionality into the page, making it simple for visitors to share the campaign and engage with the brand.
Papa Murphy's wanted to increase email signups on their website. Our hypothesis was by testing a variety of email pop-up colors, content, and imagery, we could significantly increase email subscribers, without increasing the website's bounce rate. To execute our tests, we used the Optimizely platform, and over a series of months, were able to significantly increase email subscribers, allowing the brand to better reach their core audience.
Keyboard Navigation Project
Papa Murphy's wanted to create a "secret" menu that featured custom pizza creations. To build hype and increase sales for these pizzas, we designed and developed a custom landing page--for both desktop and mobile--that featured the new menu, along with clear calls to action that encouraged visitors to order their pizzas now.
Keyboard Navigation Project
Following an email pop-up optimization campaign, we wanted to improve the next step in the process by optimizing the sign-up page. We took an outdated and uncompelling page, and gave it a vibrant, modern look with a simple form and benefit-first copy. After optimizing this page, we took the email sign-up process one step further by creating a new "Thank You" page that appeared once visitors had successfully subscribed, and encouraged people to follow Papa Murphy's on social media. This entire optimization process allowed Papa Murphy's to increase their email subscribers and social media followers, and gave visitors a simple user experience.

Cakes, like jack-o'-lanterns, must be sliced and set on fire before they can be enjoyed. Set your palate aglow with this Groupon.
$10 for $20 Worth of Baked Goods
Guests can sample numerous desserts from different culinary traditions, such as one of the various flavors of brownies ($1.75), tarts ($4.50), coconut macaroons ($0.95), cream puffs ($1.50), or pie ($18).
Different culinary traditions approach sweets differently, whether augmenting the natural sweetness of fruits by dusting them with sugar to make a tart or creating the rich creaminess of a slice of cheesecake from scratch. When the owners of La Rosette began compiling recipes for their bakery, they didn't want to focus on just one of these indulgent categories, but instead chose to incorporate the best flavors from Hispanic, American, and European dessert traditions. The result is a mix of cakes, petit fours, and pastries. La Rosette's bakers present creamy forkfuls of tres leches strawberry mousse cake or their Oreo-filled bon bons—which are even more decadent than Oreo-filled Oreos. They can also create classics for customer shindigs, carefully baking a family's holiday pumpkin pie or birthday cake—the latter they offer in more than 20 flavors.

Alternatives on the Rise
Traditional beverages continue to be outshined in the convenience store cooler.
By W.B. King
If nothing else, a twisting, turning economy is good for one thing: identifying the wants and needs of a respective consumer demographic. In short, when there is limited money to spend, choice products rise to the top, and that is the case with alternative beverages.
"The packaged beverages department has changed over the last few years by consumers wanting more healthy drinks and perceived enhancement in drinks causing a shift from traditional carbonated soft drinks (CSDs) toward other segments, such as enhanced waters and low-calorie sport drinks," said Tom Cook, district manager at Cody's Convenience Stores, a 25-unit chain based in Missouri.
Last year, the packaged beverage category as a whole posted an 8.2 percent sales per store increase, which followed a 9.9 percent increase from the year before, according to the Convenience Store News 2008 Industry Report. And c-stores' share of packaged beverage sales also increased last year, as the convenience channel gained more than 1.5 points compared to supermarkets and drug store chains.
This increase may be due to c-stores offering more choices than other channels, according to Gary Hemphill, senior vice president in charge of Beverage Marketing Corp.'s Information Services Division. "Consumers want variety, and often their beverage choices vary by usage occasion," he said. "The same consumer is not necessarily going to drink the same product in the morning that they consume at other day parts, and the product offerings of convenience stores have to reflect this change in the marketplace."
Last year, the Beverage Marketing Corp. released a report that found energy drinks, bottled water, ready-to-drink teas and enhanced or functional beverages experienced significant, and in some cases off the chart, growth rates, while more established products lost momentum. However, with approximately 50 percent of the total market share, conventional CSDs remain the most popular category on a volume basis, explained Hemphill.
Coke and Pepsi products remain top sellers at Cody's, according to Cook, with traditional CSDs occupying 44 percent of the cooler. But enhanced waters and ready-to-drink (RTD) teas and enhanced sports drinks comprise approximately 35 percent of the cooler, which is an increase over past years.
Cooler Predications
Cook explained when determining what customers want, each store's demographics are studied. "We set out cooler space accordingly," Cook said. "We then monitor sales by item movements on a per store basis and determine what segments we need to expand or decrease."
Taking calculated chances is often the only means to determining what products will sell on a large volume basis. In today's market, alternative beverages are the metric to follow.
"Alternative segments are driving sales into stores by bringing the more health-conscious consumer into our stores, which is a new consumer and usually allows us to charge a premium retail for these products where the perceived value is higher than with traditional CSD sales," Cook said. "These consumers are not near as price sensitive as our traditional consumers."
It stands to reason that if traditional c-stores are experiencing an influx of consumers willing to spend extra on alternative beverages, specialty c-stores, such as the Torrance, Calif.-based Famima Corp., which operates 13 Famima!! stores in Southern California, has an edge.
"By looking at the growth, or decreased growth, and the consumer tendency,it is most likely the carbonated drinks, [such as] Pepsi and Coke will decrease," said Sato Hidenari, vice president of operations for Famima!! "On the other hand, due to the healthy, non-carbonated trend, it is very easy to say that enhanced water, tea and specialty water will continue to grow."
Hidenari explained Famima!!, the American brand name for one of Asia's leading convenience store chains FamilyMart Co. Ltd., operating 12,914 stores in Japan, Taiwan, Korea, Thailand and China, initially wanted to focus on specialty teas and waters.
"We originally limited Coke and Pepsi products, but have actually expanded their SKUs," said Hidenari, adding the first Famima!! location opened in 2004. "Customers need to see the typical drinks to be comfortable, but at the same time need to see something that is new to them."
As the market continues to grow, and "splinter" as Hemphill noted, opportunities will emerge for progressive retailers. "We will see the continued development of finely targeted categories and products," he explained. "This poses a challenge as well as an opportunity for all retailers, but especially convenience store operators because of the shelf limitations they face."
A Healthy Pulse
Across the nation, retailers recognize that changing the approach to traditional cooler offerings is essential to capitalizing on consumer trends. The CSNews 2008 Industry Report found energy drinks are slowly gaining more ground in the cooler, which is at the expense of the CSD category. Last year, energy drinks increased to an average of 10 percent of cooler doors, which is up from 8.7 percent the previous year. CSDs dropped from 29.7 percent of cooler doors down to 29.0 percent in the past year.
"Energy drinks continue to grow for our markets as well, Cook said. "To grow this segment, we are looking at targeting the consumer who wants bigger sizes and using the energy drink to last all day, such as the 32-ounce size. We are also increasing our multi-pack options to help grow the category to switch the consumer from the traditional CSD drinker to the energy department. This approach will grow both our sales and profits."
Hindenari explained Famima's approach to new product offerings is fluid. "We are still a small company and are flexible to try out newly introduced products," he said. "This means we will have those products on the shelf as soon as possible and look at the data daily to see sales figures and make evaluations for the next step."
Among leading brands are Smartwater, O-i Ocha, Naked Juice, Aquafina and Arrowhead. And while Famima!! carries AriZona and Nestle teas, Hindenari said customers are getting sour on sugar drinks. "Teas without sugar are doing very well," he said.
Looking forward, Cook said: "I think we will continue to see additional segments and hybrid drinks come around as the traditional CSDs need to compete with enhanced waters' and teas' growth."
And while it remains clear the alternative beverage category will grow, product offerings may be hit or miss. According to Hindenari, however, one thing is for certain: "We can say the traditional carbonated category will not expand."

8 Qualities Women Look For In Men
Go to school and get a PhD. Watch CNN, PBS, the Discovery Channel, and CNBC. Do crossword puzzles. And exercise, it will increase the amount of oxygen to your brain. Read book reviews in order to pretend that you actually read books. Get clear glasses without a prescription, they will make you look intelligent.
5- Green Bills
Women like successful men, which means they like men who have plenty of Benjamins (et al.) by his side. How do you get some? Get cozy with people in high places who may be able to pull some strings for you one day. If you don't have any wealth, just pretend you do.
And dress for success — if you're going to play the part, then you've got to look the part. Buy Gap clothes, but really expensive shoes. Instead of buying the fully equipped Jetta, buy the basic BMW. See my point?
4- Size Matters
Contrary to what a lot of women say, size does matter to a woman. Of course, that doesn't mean that they want a 15-inch penis, but if your pecker's only competition is your pinky finger, then perhaps you should try the Penis Improvement System. Otherwise, you can try to fake it by losing weight, wearing tight jeans, and trimming your pubic hairs.
3- Sexual Experience and Stamina
Now you and your gargantuan penis need to sleep with as many women as you can and remember every little aspect they enjoyed. Read books by famous therapists, watch videos on how to make love, and spend much more time engaging in foreplay. Touch her in all the sensitive areas (inner thighs, nape of neck, small of back). Overall, take your time and explore your women.
2- Funny Man
Stop taking everything so seriously and laugh it up with style. If you think you're only slightly funny, I recommend double dating with guys that have absolutely no sense of humor. Avoid being around her when she is sad or in a moment of crisis because she might associate those feelings with you. Memorize some funny jokes and tell them at a later time.
1- Confidence
The most important quality women look for in men is confidence. If you don't have any, then practice in front of the mirror: Keep repeating "You're the best; you're number one" until you believe it. Play games that you are really good at. Split your time between hanging out with useless buddies that are impressed by everything you do, and successful people that can mentor you.
Enroll in speech classes to develop a confident and strong voice. Never admit that you can't do something. Instead, find an excuse not to do it, or practice and eventually ace it (the latter is the better option). Stand up straight; if you can't, then do some back and abdominal exercises. The best way to seem confident is to look women right in the eyes. If you are afraid, then look between their eyes because they will never notice the difference.
There is no such thing as the perfect man, but that doesn't mean you can't pretend to be one. The important thing is to be the best you can be, and fake the rest. Now that you have a better idea when it comes to what women want in a man, it's time to practice and perfect it. Once you show women what a nice guy you are, they'll want to date, marry, or make wild and passionate love to you all night long.

3M Claims Democratic Lobbyist, Talking Head, and Former Clinton Staffer Lanny Davis Tried to Extort $30 Million From It
And I think this is standard operating practice. Do what we want, or we will make government trouble for you.
3M claims an investment company conspired with high-powered lobbyist Lanny Davis in a smear campaign to "coerce" it into paying "tens of millions of dollars ... to save them from the consequences of yet another unprofitable investment," a screening test for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus...
This report does not specify the interest of the parties here. It is my guess that 3M entered into some agreement with a company Davis lobbied for, to test and then distribute their drug; they decided it wasn't commercially viable, and terminated the agreement, and then Davis went to work to pressure them into reversing that decision.
I assume the termination of the contract wasn't a breach at all, because I don't see any mention of suing over a broken contract.
After attacking them in the press, it is alleged, they got more direct:
"Defendants' illicit campaign has included overt threats of reprisals by holders of large blocks of 3M stock; public demonstrations by paid individuals posing as victims of an altogether fabricated public health 'issue' allegedly created by 3M's decision to discontinue selling a product no one wanted...
And so forth. And then they kicked it up a notch.
3M adds: "When these tactics failed to yield the financial windfall defendants sought, they resorted to making extortionate demands upon 3M." It claims that Boulter and Davis then "acted together" to make a "crude extortion attempt" by "sending to 3M's counsel an unsolicited e-mail in which Boulter claimed that the British Minister of Defence had instructed Boulter to inform 3M that if it did not pay over $30 million, the Minister of Defence would interfere with 3M's ability to do business with the British government. He also threatened that the British government would reconsider the recently announced call to knighthood of Buckley. This crude extortion attempt threatened both to embarrass Buckley and to tarnish 3M's most valuable asset, its corporate brand."
Sounds a lot like a form of privateering. Well-connected individuals, acting with other pals in government, pirate money away from companies and people. And it's kinda-sorta legal, if you have enough friends in government.

Linkin Park trainer found guilty, escapes suspension
Posted Tue May 20, 2008 1:43pm AEST
Map: Darwin 0800
The Territory's chairman of racing stewards says the case of a local galloper which tested positive to the same drug taken by its trainer should serve as a warning to the industry.
Shane Clarke was last night found guilty of taking a horse to the racecourse with a prohibited drug in its system, but escaped without suspension.
Clarke's Linkin Park tested positive to the human anti-inflammatory drug Naproxen after winning a race at Fannie Bay in March.
Clarke told a stewards inquiry he has taken a Naproxen based drug for more than 20 years and that it probably entered the system through the horse's mouth while he was applying a commonly used tongue tie before the race.
Chairman of stewards Lindsay Lane says while Clarke escaped without suspension, the case still sends a message to all trainers.
"Inadvertent contamination of their horses can happen through means such as this, so whatever medication they or their staff could be using or any products that they're using, they need to be extremely cautious to ensure that contamination of their horses doesn't occur."
Clarke can continue preparing runners for the Darwin Cup Carnival.

Frizlayt (frozen light) - is a technique of drawing with light when shooting at slow shutter speed. This new, bright, exciting art, which is gaining in popularity. And one of the recognized leaders in the global frizlayte is a project from Germany LAPP-Pro. About frizlayte in general and about the German project in particular will be discussed in this release.
1. The art of "drawing with light" is called differently - light graffiti frizlayte (frozen light), lyuminografiya ... it originated long ago, back in 1910, called these unusual photographers "radiant."
2. Masters frizlayte create their masterpieces using various light sources, which have moved rapidly to draw their own pictures and create a light sculpture. And all this action is photographed at slow shutter speed. One picture can be formed from a pair of tens of manipulating light sources.
3. Light sources can be everything that shines: standard candles, mobile phone, incandescent lamps, sparklers. Frizlaytery but most prefer the LED flashlight and a staff.
4. Creating a professional light pictures - a laborious and delicate work, requiring imagination to create the plot, many rehearsal and fine cuts.
5. An important feature of this trend is the lack of image processing on the computer.
6. One of the recognized leaders in the global frizlayte is a project from Germany LAPP-Pro (Light Art Performance Photography), consisting of two people - Jergen Mizu and Jan Vellerta.
7. Ideas from LAPP-Pro are often associated with science fiction, but sometimes reflect and ordinary reality. Their masterpieces, and Mizu Vellert create with bright flashes, and, of course, the LED elements. It seems so to finance the project and volunteered to Led Lenser - manufacturer of LED lamps.
8. Considering the work of the duo LAPP-Pro's hard to believe that these men frizlayte just infatuation, which they do in their spare time. Jan Vellerta admitted that they do they are mostly at night, but the most opportune time to create the light patterns - early morning, when no interfering light sources and onlookers.
9. LAPP-Pro begin work on the image to its careful design and meticulously choose their place of its creation.
10. Sometimes the process of creating a new creature is so colorful that causes a lot of attention from the outside. For example, while creating one of the paintings to the project participants twice had to explain to the police and to prove the safety and harmlessness of their activities.
11. Often, LAPP-Pro team invited to the joint activity bands to create a unique mood for its unusual light special effects.
12. All his works Gergen Mizu and Jan Vellert posted online http://www.lapp-pro.de. You can see there, and those works that have participated and won prizes at the prestigious photo contests. In the photo: advertising company Nike.
13. Interestingly the appearance of the term frizlayte. It in 2008 came up with Artem Dolgopolov and Roman Palchennikov for the name of the community of experimentalists in the field photographing light patterns on a long exposure, which reveals the secrets of this art. Community has gained enormous popularity, and its name was subsequently used to describe the art of making light pictures.
14. Frizlayte in Russia is becoming popular in big cities there are community frizlayterov, exhibitions of works by Russian creators of light pictures, and master classes for beginners creators of this fascinating and mysterious art form.

State religion
|Jacques Jean Jaroslaw Marie d'Orléans
|Premier ministre
|11,475 km²
|Orleanis Franc
The Duché of Orléans is a survivor state in north-central France, about 130 km (81 mi) southwest of Paris. The city of Orléans is the capital, claiming to be the monarchical successor to the original Kingdom of France. Following the diplomatic mission of 2010, it became clear that the Orléanais consider the Fifth Republic to have lapsed. The Orléanais don't object to a new, unified French government, but do seem quite attached to their Prince. The Royalist element could have implications for the future of a reunified France, with some experts considering the prospects of a constitutional monarchy for the would-be restored nation.
During the Hundred Years' War between the Kingdom of England and the Kingdom of France, Orleans would witness the turning point of the war, and the turn-around of the French forces pushing out the English invaders from continental Europe, due to the forces led by Joan of Arc; for her actions, she remains remembered among the Orléanais as the "Maid of Orléans." Its history has been relatively quiet since then, and shortly before Doomsday, it was a quiet city not far away from Paris.
Because of its proximity to Paris, Orléans and the environs have been the latest to be brought to order and repopulated. While the claims of being a Duché may be the stylings of a deranged ruler, no contact was made with any ruling class until early January 2009, and references to the region were apocryphal at best.
In January of 2009, WCRB envoy Dr. Cayne Armand, code-named Louisiannan managed to transmit a wireless report to the WCRB office in Clermont-Ferrand regarding the status of Orléans.
From Doomsday until some time in 1991 the region was largely lawless, and became widely depopulated as a result. Orléans was one of the few cities that had managed to maintain some degree of order at the time. Masses of refugees from Paris were known to have dispersed at this time. Unlike the chaotic experience of Bourgogne-et-Franche-Comté however, evidence points to a the number of refugees in Orleans being significantly smaller. It is suspected that the banlieu of Paris toward Orléans may have been more heavily hit by bombs, thus culling the possible number of refugees.
Further research by the WCRB has revealed that a campaign of disinformation was begun by Orléanist operatives during the initial days following the destruction of Paris, suggesting any number of things to make Orléans less than desirable for refuge. This caused much of the refugee swarm to pass over Orléans and the surrounding region and head instead toward Poitiers and La République Poitevine
Dissatisfied with his life in Monaco Prince Jacques Jean Jaroslaw Marie d'Orléans, pretender to the French throne of the Orléanist branch gathered up others, and well supplied, traveled northward to survey the ruins of Paris. Among the expedition were former soldiers of the French Army who offered their services and loyalty. Upon arrival, the Prince was appalled at the devastation done in Doomsday. Those that had survived there had degenerated into squabbling warlord-fiefs. According to later documents, the expedition managed to collect a few artifacts and supplies before being forced out. Later exploratory efforts by Celtic, Luxembourgish and Alpine explorers have independently confirmed the extent of the destruction of Paris confirming the sea of glass reported by the Orléanais explorers.
The Prince and his guard moved south to Orléans, then under "emergency control." At the time, with loss of contact with the wider world, the Orléanais presumed that the Fifth Republic remained in force. With passage of years and no restoration of contact, the Prince, using his title of Duke of Orléans, sent an official edict to the Orléanais citizens declaring the Fifth Republic dissolved, and the restoration of the Monarchy in 1993. Due to the unsettled nature of France he announced that he would retain his official title as Prince, postponing a Coronation for the day that France was restored.
Official Contact
In March of 2010 Dr. Cayne Armand accompanied an official delegation to Orléans from La République Poitevine and Auvergne, and was well received. Discussions of reconnection of rail and powerlines have been ongoing since that time.
Present Day
Cancer remains a very common illness in Orleans, and with over 5% of the nation having some form of cancer, the health situation looks grim and will most likely stay grim until at least 2020.
If expansion does ever occur to the north, it will be the first nation to hold territory in the blasted sea of glass that was Paris.
Orleans continues to face a difficult situation as it is the most beleaguered of all French successor states, due largely in part to its proximity to Paris.
The only true factor in its economy is wine-making and subsistence agriculture. It must import most other things such as automobiles, windows, and other materials. With the arrival of a rail connection to Auvergne and the Poitevin Republic in 2010, it seems the lot of the Orleanais has improved. There are already significant trade talks underway with hopes for an increase of food and health care.

After spending quite an inordinate amount of time reading through threads about resolutions, (include the 27 page one about the quest for 800x480), I've yet to find a concenus on what resolution looks best for 7" and 8" screens. Given that 800x480 *IS* achievable with a PCI video card, is it worth it over say 800x600 or whatever the next smallest standard resolution is? I've seen people who have achieved it say it's not, yet I keep finding threads about people still trying to achieve it. What's the final word on this subject?
No announcement yet.
best resolution(s): the conclusion
new posts
I guess the final word would be whatever makes *you* happy. I have 800x480 on my 7", and I'm happy with that. I have to sacrifice space for a AGP, AGP riser, and a fan, but to me it's worth it (and physically possible for the location of my install), but to others it might not be.

Gen 2: Pentium M 1.6GHz - ITX - 2006
Gen 3: Pentium M 2.0GHz - 5.25" SBC - 2007
Gen 4: (coming soon: Core2 Duo - 3.5" SBC - 2009)
...it never ends
I'm fine with 800x600 here since I can't do 800x480 on my VIA boards video adapter on my 7" screen. It's not a native widescreen resolution and the text is a little smaller but I only occasionally hop on the internet or check mail with it so it's not a big deal, looks fine with Road Runner since it's simple to just stretch the skins to whatever resolution you're using.Nick

I am still in the early planning stages of my car pc, and can really go one of two ways at this point: 1) go integrated - epia or minicp and just deal with non-native resolution or 2) don't go integrated. If it really doesn't matter I'm guessing I'll most likely go with one of Aopen's minipcs. Since I've never done one of these before I really have no basis for comparison to know what makes me happy yet

Massive News for indie Development team -Bossa Studio's as their title Surgeon Simulator reaches Two Million Sales with its barbaric medical practices and questionable patients.
Commenting on this landmark achievement Surgeon General Henrique Olifiers had this to say:
"Thanks to everyone who has played Surgeon Simulator and made it such a global success. It has been really amazing to see this title go from a game jam project to a full release across multiple formats and is testament to the originality and creativity we nurture here at Bossa Studios."
In celebration of this feat, gamers itching to try their hand at major surgery can now scrub up and get their hands dirty with a 50% reduction of prices for the rest of the week (04/02/15), available on steam and IOS.
I managed to get my hands on a copy of surgeon simulator and I tried my best to transplant a heart, no biggie…
After a number of "incidents" where Bob wouldn't make it through the minor surgery, I finally managed to perform the transplant and received an overall grade of D; which seeing that I have no previous medical knowledge I'd say it went rather well.
The game doesn't end with just some basic transplants. As you work your way through a range of "Exotic" patients, you may find the title is riddled with bacteria like Easter eggs which are both detailed and perfectly linked with a collection of gaming titles.
Sounds great right? Get your hands on Surgeon simulator yourself over on steam at – http://store.steampowered.com/app/233720/ and IOS – https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/surgeon-simulator/id814977594?mt=8&dm_i=XF5,35UFQ,J1MK2Q,BBW7X,1.
****For those coming for the competition to win a key:****
Leave a comment with your favorite body part to remove in Surgeon Simulator!
Make sure the name you comment under is your Twitter name so we can contact you if you win.
The key will be a Steam Key and will awarded to a random comment on Sunday 8th February.

A video, released on the Internet by whistleblowers' website Wikileaks.org, is garnering attention on the airwaves and web this morning.
As The Times of London writes:
The video is graphic, and disturbing. As a group of men amble down a Baghdad street, two U.S. Army helicopters open fire, repeatedly shooting the men and gunning one down as he tries to flee.
As the dust clears, the troops survey their handiwork.
"Look at those dead (expletive)," one pilot says. "Nice," another responds.
Unnamed Pentagon officials have confirmed to the Associated Press that the video is authentic. A military investigation found no wrongdoing in the July 12, 2007, incident.
Twelve people, including two Reuters journalists, were killed.
Again, from The Times:
According to a July 19 summary of the investigation, U.S. troops acted appropriately. Reuters employees were likely "intermixed among the insurgents" and difficult to distinguish because of their equipment, the document states.
"It is worth noting the fact that insurgent groups often video and photograph friendly activity and insurgent attacks against friendly forces for use in training videos and for use as propaganda to exploit or highlight their capabilities," the document concludes.
This video clip shows events leading up to the deaths and the immediate aftermath.
Update at 10 a.m. ET:The Iraqi Journalists' Union has called for a government investigation into the incident.

text: Politics 27 January 2011 A burger with a side order of smugness Sign up for our weekly email * A new year and a new hamburger - for is the hamburger not elemental? Is it not like the two hemispheres of the earth, seamed by the biota? Or possibly two robust thighs, between which is pressed beefy virility? Or, not forgetting, two pillowy breasts, equipped with a minced cleavage? Then again, can the hamburger not be conceived of as a 3-D diagram of the social structure of early-21st-century Britain? The upper bun represents the burgeoning middle class, at its apex a scattering of sesame-seed bankers, while the meat patty is the barrier to social mobility and the lower bun . . . You get the picture: add ketchup and you've got a vivid simulacrum of violent revolution. The big burger chains are all well and good but they don't satisfy the bourgeoisie's demand for plebeian fare without the plebs in evidence (apart from the staff). Numerous outlets have stepped into this breach over the years. When I was a kid, in the early 1970s, my American mother used to take my brother and me to an upmarket hamburger joint on the Fulham Road called the Great American Disaster, where food was served on wooden trenchers and the walls were decorated with front pages of the New York Times, reporting such national traumas as the Wall Street Crash and the assassination of JFK. Southern comfort Wow! You couldn't get away with such a theme nowadays. For a start, there are too many disasters - you could devote an entire floor to spree shootings alone. And, in the 51st state, using the humiliations of Afghanistan, Iraq, Hurricane Katrina, the Deepwater Horizon blowout and so on (let alone 9/11) as restaurant decor would probably earn you a Predator drone strike. No, the GAD de nos jours is the largely innocuous GBK (Gourmet Burger Kitchen), started by three Kiwis who missed the hearty fare of the southern bunosphere. GBK's shtick is that all of its beef is sourced from "traceable" Aberdeen Angus herds, while all of its food is cooked to order. Fair enough. The GBK look is functionalist wood'n'tile, and if you stump up £8.70 for one of its signature Kiwiburgers (with beetroot, egg, pineapple, cheese, salad, mayo and relish), it will make a donation of 25p on your behalf which goes to help save the kiwi in Whakatane. Presumably these are the birds rather than the people, but you never know. GBK isn't the only chain flogging such exotica as buffalo burgers and wagyu beef, but here's the real grist of the matter: is any of these upmarket burgers worth paying 100-200 per cent more for than you would for a Whopper or a Big Mac? Sometimes, in my view, but by no means always. Take the other evening, when the youngest whelp and I had an hour to kill before some after-school event. We could've swerved into McDonald's and endured the squeech, scritch and wibble of massed teen-phoniness; the food would've been pap but the bill would've been insubstantial. Instead, we opted for a branch of GBK so small, it was like an oaken phone booth. Yes, you get a better class of fast-food diner in GBK but, my dear, the noise. There was a table of yummy mummies in gilets and jeans who, between them, had a few buggy-loads of toddlers, and the screeching, snorting and wailing were almost insupportable. Coalition blues Struck dumb by this, my nine-year-old signed to the waitress that he wanted a plain burger and some fries, while I requested a buffalo burger but they'd run out. I've had buffalo burgers before and, frankly, once you've bitten into these survivors of a great American extinction, you'll never return to fatty old beef. So, I ordered a chorizo salad with sweet potato, rocket, blah, blah, blah . . . Jesus! The food was OK but it wasn't £25 OK (with drinks). It would've been less than a tenner underneath the golden arches. One foible of GBK is that, although your order is brought to you, you have to make it at the counter. This demi-service seems to result in some glitches. My bottle of Coke arrived completely flat and, when I raised this with the waitress, she was very sweet and immediately replaced it - but it was way too late for me. I'd sunk into depression, thinking to myself, "This is what 2011 is going to be all about: flat Coke sipped in pricey burger bars while the upper middle classes bray at their kids." On reflection, probably a better image of coalition Britain than the burger qua burger - or, at any rate, an upmarket one. Will Self is an author and journalist.

IAN and Stefanie Barnett have been managing the Ship, in Dock Road, Grays, for just over two years. Stefanie, 41, was born and raised in Thurrock, while Ian, 52, was born in Sussex. They have four children – one working at William Edwards School and one at Stifford Clays Primary.
Q) What do you love about Thurrock and what is it that's kept you here?
A) We are both long-term residents of Thurrock and have both worked in different sectors of the community. Friends and family keep us here, and now customers that have become our friends also keep us here
Q) How do you see the future for the borough?
A) Investment is needed in Grays to bring it into line with similar areas. New jobs will aid the regeneration, bringing with them a better standard of living with more prospects.
Q) How do you think other parts of Essex see Thurrock?
A) We'd like to think other areas can see Thurrock's potential and growth prospects, with investment a key feature.
Q) If you could change one thing about the borough, what would it be?
A) The roads and infastructure would benefit from being updated. As the borough becomes busier, we suffer from congestion and that has a massive knock-on effect for both social and business needs.
Q) What made you start up your own business here?
A) We were offered the opportunity to manage the Ship, and welcomed the challenge to return the pub back into a wellused friendly local.
Q) What involvement in the community does the Ship have?
A) We see the Ship as an integral part of the community, where friends and family can meet to eat, drink, chat and take in our live music nights, in a familiar, friendly atmosphere, with customers and staff being more like friends.
Our Thursday carvery offers our older residents a chance to enjoy a roast dinner while catching up with friends, and on Sundays it is a chance for families to come out and eat together.
Q) What's your favourite bit about the Gazette?
A) The Gazette, being delivered free, plays an important role in keeping people up to date with local news and events, particularly those who don't have internet access or cannot go out. It's a one-stop information shop.

|Re: [csv] Creating a CSV component
|Thu, 09 Jun 2005 09:26:19 GMT
I must say that I agree with Henri that this merits its own component. IMO it doesn't fit into [lang] and would look strange within [io] or [codec]. CSV is a topic that comes up every now and then and if this could be solved once and for all then a separate component would be justified if only for it to be easily found which it wouldn't be if it were hidden in one of the existing packages. Too bad I don't have time to help. CSV stuff bit me more than a couple of times in the past. Thanks to Henri for putting some energy into it.
