Around 2 a.m., a group of volunteers will gather in Old Metairie to begin the laborious process of setting up, cleaning and frying Thanksgiving Day's main attraction.
Soon more volunteers will arrive ready to help. And by the end of the day, nearly 150 volunteers will have had a hand in the preparation of hundreds of fried turkeys, all done for a good cause.
The Dawn Busters Kiwanis Club's annual Thanksgiving fried turkey fundraiser will be held Nov. 26 at the Lions Club Home, 1627 Metairie Road, Old Metairie. The birds, which weigh 12-14 pounds, are $47. For orders of 10 or more turkeys, the cost is $42 each.
"In previous year, we have fried as many as 900 turkeys and the goal this year is 800 turkeys," said Anthony DiNatale, chairman of the event and president-elect of the club. "It's a long day but it's a great event. And we have a lot of volunteers who help make it a success."
Partnering with the members of the Krewe of Carrollton who fry the turkeys for the event, high school key club members from Ridgewood Prep, Ecole Classique, Adams Middle School, East Jefferson High School and Mount Carmel Academy also volunteer.
"The students are a huge help," DiNatale said. "They help with packaging the turkeys, collect the money for orders being picked up and also help cleaning up after the event is over."
Once cleaned, the turkeys are injected with seasoning and then fried in peanut oil. Each bird is individually packaged for storage and includes re-heating instructions.
Mel Dussel is a past president of the Dawn Busters who serves on the group's board of directors.
"We finish the turkey fry about 8 p.m. and we have over 150 Dawn Busters, family members, friends and Key Club boys and girls who help to pull it off," Dussel said. "Also, many of our friends in the restaurant business supply all of the food for the volunteers that day."
Proceeds from the event will go to the club's Reward for Reading, an incentive program aimed at elementary and middle school students in Jefferson Parish to encourage them to read more.
"We donate bicycles and media players to area Jefferson Parish schools as rewards for reading books," DiNatale said. "And this year, we have 20 schools participating."
"This program is now in its eighth year and since it began seven years ago, participating students have read well over 1.3 million books," added Dussel, chairman of the reading program. "A child reads a book and then takes a test on what he or she has read. Then, the club members come to the participating schools to give gifts to those who successfully complete the program.
"We have given out more than 250 new bikes, helmets, locks and chair sets. We have also given 3,000 free pizza cards to Domino's, 3,000 free meals from Raising Canes, 50,000 passes to Adventure Quest Lazer tag, 70,000 passes for bowling at AMF All Star Lanes in Kenner and a whopping 250,000 passes to Zephyr baseball games."
DiNatale said the deadline to order turkeys is midnight Nov. 25 and orders can be placed online at www.dawnbusters.org/turkey. DiNatale added those who order 10 or more turkeys will receive free delivery of their orders beginning at 10 a.m. Nov. 26.
"This is the most exhausting event that we do, but in all honesty, we laugh and cut up every minute of the day and evening, which is why Dawn Busters, as an organization, is so successful," Dussel said. "We are people helping people who are having a great time in the process."
"The turkey fry is a physical challenge but we give it all we have," DiNatale said. "Those of us involved in Kiwanis do this event and other projects because we are motivated to serve and to give back in order to help better our community."
For information, contact DiNatale at (504) 299-3370 or anthony@bavarianwealth management.com.

The deal will shift the Cellular One brand to Alltel. It's the latest sign of Arkansas-based Alltel's strategy of building market share through less populous areas. Bellevue, Wash.-based Western Wireless has about 1.4 million wireless customers in 19 Western and Midwestern states that are contiguous to Alltel's properties, mainly in the South and West.
Should the acquisition be approved by shareholders, Alltel would have $10 billion in overall revenue and coverage of a vast share of the rural USA, with 10 million customers in 33 states.
The purchase would also give Alltel an international component. Western Wireless has 1.6 million customers abroad, mostly in Austria and Ireland.
In trading Monday, Western Wireless shares surged 2.3%, to close at $37.37 on the Nasdaq Stock Market but below the $39.25 per share at which the Alltel deal valued them according to Friday's closing price. Alltel shares slipped 2.4%, to $54.75 on the New York Stock Exchange.
The deal is the latest consolidation in the wireless service industry. Last month, Sprint agreed to buy Nextel for $35 billion in a deal that would fortify Sprint's position as the USA's No. 3 wireless provider behind Cingular Wireless and Verizon Wireless.
A Sprint-Nextel combination would have 35 million wireless subscribers and a combined $40 billion in annual revenue.
Rick Black, an analyst with Blaylock & Partners, said the purchase of Western Wireless should help Alltel protect its wireless position and its business as a provider of roaming services to national wireless carriers.
He also said the agreement could be a harbinger of more deals to come.
"Although the proposed acquisition does little to change the wireless hierarchy, it does shift the balance of power as Alltel gains market share in overlapping areas and becomes a significant roaming partner to all national players," Black wrote in a research note.

Matt: Hey, Kullback! You know, you're a total butt-head!
Kullback: What did you say?
Matt: Hey, I heard you got the wrong animal brain transplant. Any truth to that?
Kullback: Why, you stinking little...
Kullback: I'll cripple you later, you little dweeb!
Joann Garcia who plays Samantha was in the long running sitcom, Reba.
Alliteration Alert! (Curious Camera).
Eddie Kaye Thomas, who played Matt, starred in the movie American Pie.
Christian Tessier who plays Kullback in this episode also played Josh in the previous episode The Tale of Laughing in the Dark.
Both this episode and the Goosebumps episode (and the book, which was called Say Cheese and Die!) were both probably inspired by The Twilight Zone episode entitled "A Most Unusual Camera," which involves the same premise as this episode and the Goosebumps episode and book.
Guest stars Richard McMillan and Christian Tessier appeared in both "The Tale of the Curious Camera" and a similar Goosebumps episode called "Say Cheese and Die".

|Re: Optimize and Out Of Memory Errors
|Sat, 27 Dec 2008 21:16:02 GMT
Hello, As an update to this problem: It seems Luke is also failing on a segment with so much documents in it (norms enabled). I was probably too tired to notice that the hits i was getting was coming from a very small segment not the big segment. So I was back at square one; For testing I created a file without norms in it and luke did not throw any exception. Knowing that, I proceeded to investigate any other ways to avoid the norms problem without having to regenerate the new index with norms disabled. So far, in my local testing the following query code does not seem to fail. The main thing being ConstantScoreQuery. Using this query, processing of norms does not seem to be invoked. I'll still have to check more on this in detail.. Filter dateFilter = new RangeFilter("timestamp", DateTools.dateToString(start, DateTools.Resolution.SECOND), DateTools.dateToString(end, DateTools.Resolution.SECOND), true, true); ConstantScoreQuery dateQuery = new ConstantScoreQuery(dateFilter); BooleanQuery.setMaxClauseCount(1024); BooleanQuery query = new BooleanQuery(); query.add(dateQuery, BooleanClause.Occur.MUST); Analyzer analyzer = new StandardAnalyzer(); QueryParser parser; if (!isEmpty(content)) { try { parser = new QueryParser("content", analyzer); ConstantScoreQuery contentQuery = new ConstantScoreQuery(new QueryWrapperFilter(parser.parse(content))); query.add(contentQuery, BooleanClause.Occur.MUST); } catch (ParseException pe) { log.error("content could not be parsed."); } } ________________________________ From: Lebiram <email@example.com> To: email@example.com Sent: Wednesday, December 24, 2008 2:43:12 PM Subject: Re: Optimize and Out Of Memory Errors Hello Mark, As of the moment the index could not be rebuilt to remove norms. Right now, I'm trying to figure out what luke is doing by going through source code. Using whatever settings I find, create a very small app just to do a bit of search. This small app has 1600 mb heapspace while luke just has 256 max for heap space. On reading the same big 1 segment index with 166 million docs, luke fails during checkIndex when it checks the norms, but searching is okay as long as I limit it to say a few thousand documents. However it's not the same for my app, been trying to limit it It still reads way too much data. I'm wondering if this has anything to do with Similarity and Scoring. I was wondering if you could lead me to some settings or any clever tweaks. This problem will haunt me this christmas. :O ________________________________ From: Mark Miller <firstname.lastname@example.com> To: email@example.com Sent: Wednesday, December 24, 2008 2:20:23 PM Subject: Re: Optimize and Out Of Memory Errors We don't know those norms are "the" problem. Luke is loading norms if its searching that index. But what else is Luke doing? What else is your App doing? I suspect your app requires more RAM than Luke? How much RAM do you have and much are you allocating to the JVM? The norms are not necessarily the problem you have to solve - but it would appear they are taking up over 2 gig of memory. Unless you have some to spare (and it sounds like you may not), it could be a good idea to turn them off for particular fields. - Mark Lebiram wrote: > Is there away to not factor in norms data in scoring somehow? > > I'm just stumped as to how Luke is able to do a seach (with limit) on the docs but in my code it just dies with OutOfMemory errors. > How does Luke not allocate these norms? > > > > > ________________________________ > From: Mark Miller <firstname.lastname@example.com> > To: firstname.lastname@example.com > Sent: Tuesday, December 23, 2008 5:25:30 PM > Subject: Re: Optimize and Out Of Memory Errors > > Mark Miller wrote: > >> Lebiram wrote: >> >>> Also, what are norms >> Norms are a byte value per field stored in the index that is factored into the score. Its used for length normalization (shorter documents = more important) and index time boosting. If you want either of those, you need norms. When norms are loaded up into an IndexReader, its loaded into a byte[maxdoc] array for each field - so even if one document out of 400 million has a field, its still going to load byte[maxdoc] for that field (so a lot of wasted RAM). Did you say you had 400 million docs and 7 fields? Google says that would be: >> >> >> **400 million x 7 byte = 2 670.28809 megabytes** >> >> On top of your other RAM usage. >> > Just to avoid confusion, that should really read a byte per document per field.

THey are so well connected in the performing arts world, and provide unmatched arts education for young people throughout the world. I can't wait to work with them more as years go on! When I was teaching in Nicaragua, the staff of ASTEP spent hours with me helping develop my program, and I wasn't even working directly through them!

Here's where things stand after the Irvin decommit, which was becoming more and more likely with how difficult it was to reach Irvin (who had a very close relationship with Auburn DB coach Travaris Robinson, who recruited Irvin at Florida).
This will now cause questions about what Davante Davis is thinking. And while Irvin had been hard to reach, Davis had been in constant communication with the Texas coaches leading up to this weekend. So now we'll see if that changes. If Davis follows Irvin to Auburn, the next guys up on the DB list for Texas - in addition to Holton Hill and Kris Boyd - would be:
* CB Deandre Baker, 6-0, 175, of Miami Northwestern
Baker's Scout profile: http://recruiting.scout.com/player/7189940n-deandre-baker
* CB Sheldrick Redwine, 6-1, 185, of Miami Killian
Redwine's Scout profile: http://recruiting.scout.com/player/7599689n-sheldrick-redwine
* CB Mark Fields, 5-10, 175, of William Amos Hough (NC)
Fields' Scout profile: http://recruiting.scout.com/player/7040506n-mark-fields
* CB Xavier Lewis, 5-11, 180, of East Saint John (Louisiana)
Lewis' Scout profile: http://recruiting.scout.com/player/6870549n-Xavier-lewis
Obviously, all of those listed are being recruited heavily by other schools.
Baker has a soft verbal to Georgia, but he was scheduled to visit Texas on Jan. 31, and that may now be getting bumped up to next weekend (Jan. 24). If he makes that visit and his father comes with him on that visit, it's probably a sign that Texas is truly in the picture.
Mark Fields has mentioned that Clemson is his leader, but Chris Vaughn had a good in-home visit with Fields last Thursday. Fields now needs to make it to Texas for his visit on Jan. 24.
Redwine has a soft verbal to Louisville and was also on the visit to Auburn with Tim Irvin this past weekend. But Redwine has shown a lot of interest in Texas and has a visit currently planned for Jan. 31 to Austin.
Lewis is currently committed to LSU but has a visit planned to Texas for Jan. 31. Lewis' consideration of Texas would probably be bolstered by a commitment from Nicholas Brossette, since they are both Louisiana kids currently committed to the Tigers. But we'll just have to wait and see on that.

Reign: The Complete Second Season (DVD) was released October 6, 2015.
- "An evil awakens. A marriage falters."
- —DVD Tagline
The second season of Reign begins with Mary and Francis on the throne of a nation burning. France is rocked by the aftereffects of the plague, a disease that creeps inside the castle walls, taking thousands upon thousands of lives across the land, and ravages the stability of a nation. From the ashes, powerful lords will rise, carrying out personal, religious and political vendettas, taking lives, and tearing at Mary and Francis's commitment to each other, and their people. Friendships will be tested, loved ones murdered and betrayed. Meanwhile, a mysterious and deadly threat snatches victims from village streets and castle corridors; leaving evidence of savagery that looks like the work of monsters; mythical creatures who are the subject of nightmares, but who walk among us; doing the Devil's bidding.
"We are very excited to release the next installment of this scandalous and seductive series on DVD," said Rosemary Markson, WBHE Senior Vice President, Television Marketing. "With 1.7 million viewers tuning in weekly, the show's fan base is incredibly strong and we think fans will be delighted with the never-before-seen added content, in addition to the 22 riveting episodes."

Any people anywhere, being inclined and having the power, have the right to rise up, and shake off the existing government, and form a new one that suits them better. This is a most valuable - a most sacred right - a right, which we hope and believe, is to liberate the world.
Abraham Lincoln
All Americans of moral common sense are getting fed up with the abuse of our Great Nation. Not the abuse from foreign countries, but the abuse from within our own borders.
Give us our rights back! "We the people" need to rise up, and stand together to protect our Liberties - OUR SOIL, OUR WATER, and especially OUR CHILDREN - the future generations.
Our current system is becoming void, when compared to how it used to be, and should still be. Our forefathers, those who were truly "Defenders of Faith, Liberty, and Honor", were GREAT leaders. They surrounded themselves with people they could trust.
That is no longer the case. It is now a system of corruption, greed, and full of individuals with only hunger for power and control. We are on the brink of economic and security collapse if we do not change our course. The autopilot needs to be turned off - and we need to take back control of this country!
Not through violence, nor by forming a mob. Instead, we need to band together and let our voices be heard! It is time to unite and start listening to the voices of the community. A list of changes needs to be outlined regarding revisions that "WE THE PEOPLE", believe should go into effect immediately.
There is little need to point out any more of our flaws, we are well aware of those. Yet, we need to come up with the solutions and apply them immediately. It seems as though with the current leaders of this great country, they all would rather fight with each other - than to work together towards the greater good. WE ARE FED UP WITH IT!
My first revision would be that of the Leadership. No, not just the President - yet the ENTIRE counsel in Washington, D.C. needs to be wiped clean and re-staffed with individuals with high moral principles, individuals of religious beliefs, and humanitarian causes.
"America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."
Abraham Lincoln
Our children deserve better than this. We are responsible, as a society, to protect our God given liberties. We are responsible when it comes to ensuring the health of our nation. We are not being responsible.
The time has come to start being responsible again my fellow brothers and sisters. The time has come to right the wrongs. The time has come to save our country.
Foreign militaries and governments are targeting us. They say we are, "arrogant". "They", unfortunately, are right.
We have become victims of separation anxiety, greed, and selfishness. We have allowed the banks to take control of our nation. The primary focus of our government is not that of our physical security or social security, yet that of money.
Money does not make anybody rich - it does have its uses, but there comes a time when the benefits far outweigh the cost.

Don't give up work to be a SAHM unless(937 Posts)
You have a HEFTY private income or can work from home.
I gave up work, usual reasons, wages would barely cover childcare, WE wanted kids to be at home with a parent.
Fast forward. I now have two dc, the father of my dc cheated on me, physically, emotionally and financially abused me.
One of my dc has SN and cannot attend school for the moment.
I've been out of work for 10 years now, I have no profession. In 6 years time our child support will stop as will most of our benefits. I will near fifty having not worked at all for 18 years.
My future is shit. Utterly grey and bleak. All I have to look forward to is a state pension. While my ex earns a fortune, travels the world and has new relationships.
This is reality for me. So think long and hard about giving up work to stay at home because no matter how shit your job is it's preferable to my future don't you think?
And it was all decided for me by a man who decided he hated me and didn't want to be married anymore and a child being diagnosed with significant SN.
It's that simple.
I think the fear in many couples runs both ways. My DH also fears that I will run off and restrict access to the kids. (his fears are unfounded!) everyone is vulnerable.
I do agree with the general point tho.
Being a SAHM is a risk I'm willing to take. The benefits for us at the moment outweigh the possible risk.
For all those that say don't be a SAHM you are sacrificing your independence there is a SAHM saying it was a good choice and suited her family.
Its horses for courses and the luck of the draw regarding where your DH is on the twat-ometer.
Really shit for you, but there is no need to generalise to us all. I can be a SAHM because I'm not married to a man who would cheat on me, leave me, and financially abuse me. Also I control the cash anyway.
Missc, I doubt anyone starts married life thinking their partner would do that.
I dunno, but people who say "its fine so long as you stay employable by doing a bit of volunteering etc" will get a shock
Since having DS I've got a degree, done loads of volunteering, and DO work PT in the lower ranks and am still struggle to get any of the decent jobs out there
I meet SAHMs regularly who have over inflated ideas about their "transferrable skills" from being a SAHM and helping out at the odd children's centres groups or school trip! it's bollocks because almost every other SAHM, and lots of the PT working mums too, do helping out at school so it's nothing special on your CV at all
(FWIW my volunteering is much more specialised than that but still not led on to a proper paid career yet)
"I can be a SAHM because I'm not married to a man who would cheat on me, leave me, and financially abuse me"
cause everyone who gets cheated on/left knew it would happen???
So sorry OP.
I went through a stage of saying pretty much this on every single "shall I quit my job?" thread. If you do, then you are putting all the family's eggs in one basket, and even the best husbands die, get sick or are made redundant (rather more palatable advice than the more statistically likely scenario of running off to Bangkok with a twenty-something OW).
Yes some women have no real choice, and some have no careers worth preserving, but if you do, you need to think very seriously about your long-term risks.
Crap. You are all scaring me!!
I gave up my career and six figure job to be a sahm. Now have two DC (both pre school) and rely completely on DH.
Between this thread and the thread on MN earlier today about money and whether you share fully with your DH, I am suddenly feeling very exposed.
Not only have my pension lapsed over the last four years but my old career is a no go with young DC due to hours and travel involved. No family around to help either. So career has gone and with it future earnings potential and therefore pension prospects.
So it has just dawned on me that if DH didn't come home tonight having left me any reason, I am completely and utterly screwed in every way and not just short term but for the rest of my natural. And all because I took 4 years out to have two children. Oh crap. It hasn't really crossed my mind until today. Guess I won't get much sleep tonight.
Your DH doesn't have to be a cheating/lying twat etc, he could just become too ill to work/too ill to do the job that currently pays the bills, he could die, you could yourself change as life moves forward and find that you don't love him any more and want to move on.
Nobody knows what life is going to throw at them. It makes sense to be as prepared as you can be, whether by keeping a job/career going, buying appropriate insurance policies, saving some funds where possible and generally not playing the ostrich.
Well I'll tell you what. Us SAHMs are fucked either way. Made out to have no employable skills and our husbands could leave us any minute.
Nice. What do you suggest we do to resolve our majorly huge fuck-up of being home with our children?
It would be better if caring for children was recognised as the valuable work it is, and (for instance) child benefit was increased considerably for a parent-at-home. As it is, society still operates on the assumption that women are domestic servants in exchange for their keep; the whole industrial economy depends on women's unpaid work.
I wouldn't advise any woman to become a SAHM if it can be avoided. Part time work, work you can do from home, an Avon round or something - always hang on to a bit of independence. Because it's far too easy, when you are the SAHM and your male partner is earning money, for him to start considering himself your boss/owner as he is 'keeping' you, and therefore you must obey and placate him.
aka, I completely agree with you and am often to be found advising women to hold onto their careers
relying on a man is a risk, a calculated risk
you may think you know him...but no person knows another 100%. To think that you would never get shafted is naive and dangerous (although I hope those women never learn the hard way, like you did)
there is no SAHM-bashing here, btw. It's a worthwhile thing to do, of course it is...but only if you are protected from the whims of a man who can dump you like yesterday's chip wrapper any time he feels like it (and him saying he won't, or you convincing yourself he won't on scant evidence is not enough guarantee, IMO)
too many women stay in awful relationships because they are trapped financially... you only have to look at the Relationships board to know this is commonplace
a bastard like your ex may be rarer, OP (and he does sound like a grade one cunt), but there are degrees of how much shit you can be dropped in, through no fault of your own
you who think it will never happen to you.. think on
It's not so rare. I was a SAHM for 10 years, partially due to my DS2 having SN, then I've been working as a TA for the past 5 years to fit around school times, again because of my DS2. I was astonished when my H of 15 years and partner of 22 years left me last year for an OW. Never in a million years did I think that would ever happen. I trusted him completely. Now he's being a shit, no spousal maintenance, just the legal minimum child maintenance. When I gave up work to look after our DC, I earned the same as him, now I earn 10 less.
It was the right decision at the time, my DS2 needed me and we were going to be married forever.
I was made redundant from a professional (family friendly firm) when DD2 was 18 months. I managed to get some well paid freelance work, but that dried up a year ago.
I have been battling to get back into work since. I think i may have a job offer (hours and wages being discussed) and i am mightily relieved. This last year of no income of my own has been horrid, despite us getting by ok just on DH's wages.
I will have to take a pay cut, but hopefully not too much. Any more time out and I do think my career (and earning potential) would be stuffed.
Good luck to you OP, I hope something works out for you and your family. x
I think my giving up work altered the balance of power in my marriage. Yes xh was a bully and would have shown his true colours anyway, but once I gave up work he started to feel that I wasn't pulling my weight anymore. This led him to lose respect for me and eventually to his affair and our marriage breakdown.
I'm not saying this is inevitable for SAHMs but it is more common than many people seem to think. I am a lone parent, at the moment I get by as my income is topped up by tax credits and is getting easier to work as my DCs get older.
However my job is part time and I will not be able to progress any further without re-training so am thinking seriously about what I will need to do to be able to feed and house myself once the dc leave school and tax credits stop.
You are right OP. I am a SAHM too, and it works well for us. I don't for a minute think that my DH will leave me or the kids and walk off leaving us to our own devices. I don't think he's that kind of person. I don't regret being a SAHM and being there for my children. But, I will still actively advise my daughters against it because you never know what life could throw at you.
so many insecure voices on this thread
It's up to you to decide if you're happy with your life wewereherefirst - if you have made the right choices for you then there's no reason to care what anyone else thinks, surely?
However, if you think you may be financially vulnerable (and you may be, even if you have lots of skills and your husband never leaves you - see other risks mentioned above, and remember even those who are highly skilled and experienced are not finding it easy to get jobs in the current climate) then maybe take some steps to protect yourself.
Check whether you could get insurance to protect you if your DH became ill or died, maintain old work contacts and take steps to keep your skills up to date, save....
I adore my DH and trust him with my life (which he has already saved) but I would never ever ever in a million years give up my financial independence for anyone or anything.
Apart from anything else, when he was made redundant three years ago, I was able to help him out by keeping things going financially while he is retraining and earning less.
I appreciate people think they are doing the right thing for their family and it won't happen to them, but if I had been a sahm we as a family would have been sunk three years ago. I doubt we would have been able to keep the house.
Add to that the risk of illness as mentioned above, and the possibility that even without your DH being a twat, your relationship might come to an end and while he would owe maintenance and hopefully pay unlike Akas, it's not going to be the same amount is it.
And of course no one thinks it will happen to them - you wouldn't give up your job if you did...
This is not a SAHM bashing thread
"so many insecure voices on this thread"
Care to elaborate, ifso...? I don't understand.
We have protected ourselves as much as we can against poverty caused by illness and death with life insurance and critical illness insurance. If DH dies I will have the mortgage paid off and will also get a lump sum, it won't last forever but should see me through long enough to get on my feet a little bit.
If he cheats on me? Well, I take that risk but in the meantime we work hard at our marriage, take nothing for granted and tackle issues head on when we meet them because we both know that our family unit is important to us. But, yes, it is a risk.
I am also ' not married to a man who would cheat on me, leave me, and financially abuse me.'
But he is a very different man to the one he was 10 years ago and in 10 years' time will have changed more. As will I.
Nobody can predict the future. We can only make decisions on what we think is the best thing for ourselves and our children. I'm sorry you feel the future is bleak but there are flexible courses you could do from home if that is what you would like to do. I had a job for years and years that I mostly hated and found really stressful but did it to get a better standard of living. Did I do the right thing. Who knows.
YANBU (although I know this is chat).
My mum is in a very similar position right now, although sadly her children were already all grown up when she split with dad. Having spent the previous 30-odd years on child rearing, and only having a handful of part time jobs, she now faces an old age where she has to work longer for less and live in a horrible area, while my dad yucks it up working only every other month, and holidaying the months in between despite being 'skint' all the time.

Few actions speak more clearly and loudly in an organization than a personnel change and selection of a successor. By replacing athletic director Mike Garrett, under whose leadership the recent rules violations occurred, with former USC and NFL quarterback Pat Haden, USC signaled to students, alumni, future students and others that its athletic department leadership would play well within the lines of its agreements with sports' governing bodies.
And that's as it should be.
Pat Haden is a respected member of USC's board of trustees and is a partner in the investment firm Riordan, Lewis & Haden. From his time at USC, he has been known as an honest, competitive, stand-up person. As he puts it: he would never do anything that he knew would embarrass his mother.
We noted when the scandal erupted a few weeks ago that there's an inherent problem in trying to hold highly talented amateur athletes away from the rich spoils of professional sports, especially when they generate so much revenue for the universities they play for. But those are the rules that USC and others have agreed to, and it's up to university leadership to make sure they stay true to those agreements. Too often, as columnist Thomas Sowell has said, there are "people whose agendas are not constrained by decency, but only by what they think they can get away with."
We're glad Mr. Haden did a career switch to return to USC. We believe he can do just what he says: "compete ferociously and win in every sport," but do it "ethically and within the rules."

Ahh.. I'm so late in posting.. =.= (gomenasai, not enough time lately to keep up with new anime lately)
Wow~! Episode three was shocking to say the least. For these sudden developments to appear so early on is a very good sign on that they plan to finish it with a bang. Expect drama and loads of it to come~ D.C. comparisons bye bye! ヾ(・ω・)ノ゛

After watching a few minutes of the raw...
This anime definitely has the potential to become one of the guilty pleasures of the season. Yeah, the show is unbelievably cliched, the animation is awful, and this story looks like one big train wreck - but that's exactly what makes this show worth watching. It easily falls into the "so bad it's good" category; it's cheesy beyond belief. Watching this show is like watching NASCAR - you're not watching it for the racing; you're watching it for the wrecks. And this show delivers in that aspect.
This show is something I'd denote as "superb garbage" (SG) - yes, it's a piece of junk, but it's junk as an art form. There is no way that people could try to produce something of high quality and come up with this. The key to "getting" this show is to realize that the show is intentionally bad - and that it's not all that easy to come up with something so laughably horrible that you can have a ball just making fun of the show.
Heck, I'd go as far as to say that this show, and not Kanon, is the ero-game conversion to watch in the fall. It's more fun to see people recognize the limitations of the genre and have fun with the premise - than to see a group of people try to produce the "greatest show of all time", and fall woefully short.

I was just going to point out the same...
Episode 2 was pretty good, I can already see the plot turning out in many interesting and dramatic ways...
Didn't anyone find the bit where he said: "Let's go, baby"
a bit strange? I don't know why, but it jus seemed weird to me...
Oh, and some fanservice too!

Yeah I agree with relentlessflame. The second to the last one was seemingly out of place. Shouldn't it have been a picture of Mai from Kanon? I mean, I'm pretty sure she was the one that popularized the Kendo girl with ponytail archetype.
And yeah, that purple haired girl struck me as a Nagato-clone, though to be fair they're really all clones of Rei.
Well at least it seems 'Kotori' has the upperhand in this show, lol! Take that, 'Nemu'! XD
But being serious now, I'm a big sucker for love triangles. For Eps. 2, it seems that both Kirino and Riko are getting aware of each other as rivals for love, and I can't wait for the next episode because of it. And that's enough to make this my 2nd favorite show of the season, since the contender before (Crescent Love) isn't as dramatic as this one. As they say, conflict drives drama, and nothing beats a love triangle as a conflict IMO.
Still, the thing that really got to me was when Riko was cleaning the toilet. As someone who had to stay over a relatives house over a large period of time, I can understand what Riko was feeling then. Heartwarming, to say the least.

Ah but thats okay I suppose since I enjoyed DC abit, but at this point Haru is the only thing keeping me very interested since im not really sure what the guys gonna do next. The girls, while very cute, feel abt too copied from other shows atm.

After 2 episodes...
Not bad; not bad at all. I really like the relationship between Riko and Haruhiko; it's refreshing to see the main coupling be so - comfortable around each other. The real strength in their relationship is that it works on so many levels - they can function as friends, as brother and sister, and as lovers with equal ease. Kirino never reaches this level of intimacy with Haruhiko despite having 7 years to catch up - which is why she is thinking about giving up on him.
With an interesting premise and a strong central relationship to work with, I can see this show upsetting Kanon as the best ero-game adaptation of the fall. And even it doesn't, it should gather an audience of its own - no question that it will be one of the more popular shows.

If this anime ends up being about as good as DC, I think most people would be very pleased. I've seen a few rankings among bishoujo game adaptions, and DC consistently ranks near the top.
One of the things this anime has going for it is that Riko is a very strong lead. She may not quite achieve Kotori-esque levels but she is definitely better than most.

Well, that teaches me not to judge a show halfway through the first episode. The animation is really the only part of the show that is lacking; plot, direction, and characters are pretty much spot on. The show manages to cover a lot of ground in 2 episodes without rushing through the material.
And the Riko-Haruhiko-Kirino dynamic alone is enough to push this anime into the above average category. Hopefully the side characters remain in the background and we get DC-level of drama from the trio in the upcoming episodes. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Riko for the win!

He looks realy...ehmmmm...fu**ed up in that pic, I guess too many drugs don't do any good(I wonder if this has got anything to do with the Gift, he does sort of seem somehow attached to it)
He kinda seems to me like Danny Zuko from Grease. Acts like a total hard-ass sometimes, and like your average sweet guy another times...

An interesting anime,although not much happens yet except what seems to be a rivalry between the 2 main female characters.
One thing struck me though.While I don't mind a bit of fanservice every now and then,isn't she too young to have breast implants?

Civil Servants' Salary Structure
The paper looks at the trends in nominal and real salaries of the FederalGovernment employees over the period 1990-2006. It examines the structural defects in the existing salary structure and the anomalies in the allowances structure to show that appropriate remuneration for the civil servants requires serious and urgent consideration. The widening gap in the emoluments of government employees versus the public sector corporations and private sector employees has a strong bearing on the motivation and ability to work. The paper makes serious recommendations to overhaul the existing structure of salaries and perks to make the public sector employment competitive and cost-effective.

|Estimated Number of Competent Speakers of Top 5 Constructed Languages
|Simple Hindustani
|*With minimal practice, an English speaker can converse in Simplenglish. The above number deals with people who do not speak English natively.
A constructed language, or conlang for short, is a language that has been created by a person or a group of people instead of having evolved naturally. There are many types of constructed languages, but they tend to fall into two categories - naturalistic and schematic. Naturalistic languages are more likely to be called planned languages because the word planning implies more of taking things from natural languages and combining and/or modifying them in some way. Schematic languages are those which, while they may share certain root words with other languages, are built from the ground up.
Naturalistic Planned Languages
Interlingua is by far the most popular and widely-spoken constructed language on the planet, and is one of only two commonly accepted Major international languages...the other one being English. Although not an official language of any nation, it is known as a secondary language by over 100 million people, and generally understood by a larger number - i.e. most speakers of a Romance language. In addition, it is a mandatory subject in many schools around the world, particularly in Europe and countries of eastern Pemhakamik and Pacha.
Interlingua took Italian, Spanish and Portuguese, French, and English as the bases from which the vocabulary and grammar would be taken, along with German and Russian as secondary references. Through a scientific process, words common to the most primary languages would be taken, with the secondary languages being used when a good choice was not apparent. As such, Interlingua is firmly a Romance language - very similar to a pared-down Latin. Unlike Latin and all other Romance languages, however, Interlingua's grammar system is simple and highly regular. While most other Romance languages conjugate verbs for the "I", "you", "it", "we", "you (both/all)", and "they" forms (like "I go", "She goes"), Interlingua only has a single form for them all (as would be with "I go", "She go"). All tenses follow similar rules (as English would be with "I goed" instead of "I went". This makes learning Interlingua much easier than learning any other Romance language.
Interlingua only came about in the middle of the 20th century. However, there were various similar constructed languages in use before that time, such as Latino sine Flexione and Occidental, some of which helped Interlingua come about. Since its creation, it has been a major tool in the communication between different groups of Romance language speakers, as well as between these speakers and English speakers. In fact, mostly owing to the various loanwords English received over time, a knowledgeable English speaker can understand a good bit of Interlingua at first glance, and most can learn the language in only a fraction of the time that it would take to learn Spanish, Italian, or the languages from which it was created. On top of this, once Interlingua is learned, it is easy to read most texts in these other languages.
Deuts, also popularly known as Teutonish, is a language that developed much like Interlingua. In fact, Interlingua's success was one major reason that Deuts came about. Interlingua is an inter-Romance language, but Deuts is very similar, only an inter-Germanic language. Like Interlingua, it takes various languages - English, Netherish, Low German, High German, Danish, and Norwegian - and finds the most common shared vocabulary among the languages. This vocabulary is then changed so that it is comprehensible in the largest number of languages, or at least the meaning can be guessed at from its similarity. Both Interlingua and the natural language of Afrikaans, both of which have very simple conjugation systems, influenced the verbal grammar. The result is a Germanic version of Interlingua. Interlingua's and Deuts' overwhelming popularity gave rise to numerous other planned languages that took one or more languages and did away with all needlessly difficult and irregular grammar. Many of these languages, like Simplenglish, have also thrived.
Simplenglish is like Deuts and Interlingua, only instead of combining related languages into a single, simplified language, it merely simplifies English (which itself is somewhat of an amalgam of Germanic and Romance). Like the others, it does away with difficult grammar ("I go", "She goes", "I went") by doing away with all irregular verb forms (thus, again, "I go", "She go", "I goed". In addition, during the creation process, there was a desire by some to create a semi-phonetic spelling system as well. This spelling system would not be so difficult as to confuse learners or require that they use a special keyboard for typing, but it would also let any person phonetically write English or Simplenglish. This phonetic spelling is wholly optional, and it is up to the writer to choose. Most native English speakers, when writing to people who only know Simplenglish, still write in the usual way (as most people proficient at Simplenglish can sound the words out pretty well), but many people who only know Simplenglish write in the more phonetic spelling (which native English speakers can easily sound out). In addition, some speakers of regional dialects of English or closely related languages like Scots and Yolo have taken to the phonetic spelling system and have altered word spellings to fit their pronunciations in their languages. Thus, the Simplenglish language and its writing system need not always go together.
Other popular languages based on exploiting similarities between multiple languages as well as simplicity are Simple Hindustani, Simple New Bantu, and Melayu Bahru, although recently, various single languages have also had simple versions created.
Criticism and Rebuttals
There are some who are not fond of the race to create simplified grammars, as they feel that this will dissuade native speakers from using correct grammar. They feel that native speakers who know simplified forms will be lazy and stick with the simpler forms, and that immigrants will be less likely to dedicate themselves to picking up the natural language when they are understood using the watered-down versions. Some feel that if this shift happens, it would destroy the history of a language, as the history of a language is found in the various unnecessary, inconsistent and irregular forms. However, proponents of these languages argue that this shift has not happened. There are virtually no native speakers of constructed languages, and those who know the languages fluently also know a native language that is natural. It is true that many tourists use simplified languages when they travel, but very few long-term migrants (and more so their children) use simplified forms in everyday life. As for languages that help everyone in a language sub-family (Romance, Germanic, etc) to understand each other to some degree, and help people become familiar with those sub-families, there are very few criticisms. It has been shown that over the same period that these international auxiliary languages have grown in popularity, people, on average, have come to learn more languages - with bilingualism and tri-lingualism growing steadily.
Schematic Constructed Languages
Esperanto is a schematic language, different from the naturalistic languages. Ludvic Lazarus Markovitch Zamenhof created the language in the late 1800s. Instead of being based on a language or group of languages, it was constructed almost from scratch. Various words in Esperanto are related to words in other languages (chiefly Romance, Germanic and Slavic), they end up looking quite different, both through phonetic spelling changes and agglutinative system by which parts of words are put together to create new worlds. This is similar but more detailed than the prefix and suffix systems of most other languages. A small number of base words but a large number of ways to change them leads to a system where as long as you know the base word and the rules for changing it, you can create almost any word you like, without the need to refer to a dictionary. Esperanto, though not nearly as popular as Interlingua, is by far the most popular schematic constructed language. Unlike Interlingua, it is not related to other languages, and thus is not easy to make out at first glance. However, it was never meant to be that kind of language, and its fans say that it is a more internationally neutral language, and is one of the most simple languages to learn for those who do not know a Romance or Germanic language already.

The Interior Department issued a report sharply critical of Shell's exploration drilling efforts in the Chukchi Sea off Alaska last year, but Secretary Ken Salazar gave the company the go-ahead to try again in 2014.
Environmental groups harshly criticized the report and said it raised questions about the department's ability to conduct independent regulatory oversight.
"Exploration in the Arctic is a key component of the President's all-of-the-above energy strategy, and is important to our understanding of the oil and gas potential in this frontier region," Salazar said after the completion of a 60-day review by the department that recommended companies follow "Arctic specific" standards.
Shell has already announced a "pause" in its drilling plans after a series of delays and mishaps culminating in its rig, the Kulluk, getting damaged in a storm when it ran aground on its way to port.
Shell has spent nearly $5 billion and several years preparing to drill for oil in the Chukchi Sea off Alaska's Arctic coast. Harsh weather limits the drilling season there to about three or four months and Shell's plans were delayed both by its trouble getting federal approval of its containment system and by an unusually late ice season. Eventually the company pared back its plans and instead of completing two to six exploration wells it installed blowout preventers on the top of partially drilled wells.
Interior recommended that Shell hire a third party to audit the company's management systems to make sure they are tailored for Arctic conditions and address the problems encountered during the 2012 drilling season.
Environmental groups said the extra measures weren't enough.
"It's meaningless to talk about comprehensive, 'Arctic-specific' drilling plans when we now know better than ever that there is nothing predictable about conditions in the Arctic," Chuck Clusen, director of national parks and Alaska projects for the Natural Resources Defense Council, said in a statement. "Arctic-specific plans are a band-aid approach to a life-threatening problem."
Lois Epstein, an engineer and Arctic program director for the Wilderness Society, said that "after all the reports that were submitted to Interior, this additional report does not give the public confidence that key concerns with these extraordinarily complex drilling and marine transport operations will be addressed."
Shell vowed to press ahead.
"We will use this time to apply lessons learned from this review, the ongoing Coast Guard investigation and our own assessment of opportunities to further improve Shell's exploration program offshore Alaska," Shell spokesman Curtis Smith said in an e-mail. "Alaska remains a high potential area over the long-term, and we remain committed to drilling there safely, again."
And Interior credited Shell with using caution, but said it needed to do more.
"Shell simply did not maintain strong, direct oversight of some of its key contractors," said Tommy Beaudreau, principal deputy assistant secretary for land and minerals management. Citing the Arctic's "challenging conditions," Beaudrau said, "In some areas Shell performed well, but in other areas they did not, and Alaska's harsh environment was unforgiving."

CAMBRIDGE – As policymakers and investors continue to fret over the risks posed by today's ultra-low global interest rates, academic economists continue to debate the underlying causes. By now, everyone accepts some version of US Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke's statement in 2005 that a "global savings glut" is at the root of the problem. But economists disagree on why we have the glut, how long it will last, and, most fundamentally, on whether it is a good thing.
Bernanke's original speech emphasized several factors – some that decreased the demand for global savings, and some that increased supply. Either way, interest rates would have to fall in order for world bond markets to clear. He pointed to how the Asian financial crisis in the late 1990's caused the region's voracious investment demand to collapse, while simultaneously inducing Asian governments to stockpile liquid assets as a hedge against another crisis. Bernanke also pointed to increased retirement saving by aging populations in Germany and Japan, as well as to saving by oil-exporting countries, with their rapidly growing populations and concerns about oil revenues in the long term.
Monetary policy, incidentally, did not feature prominently in Bernanke's diagnosis. Like most economists, he believes that if policymakers try to keep interest rates at artificially low levels for too long, eventually demand will soar and inflation will jump. So, if inflation is low and stable, central banks cannot be blamed for low long-term rates.
In fact, I strongly suspect that if one polled investors, monetary policy would be at the top of the list, not absent from it, as an explanation of low global long-term interest rates. The fact that so many investors hold this view ought to make one think twice before absolving monetary policy of all responsibility. Nevertheless, I share Bernanke's instinct that, while central banks do set very short-term interest rates, they have virtually no influence over long-term real (inflation-adjusted) rates, other than a modest effect through portfolio management policies (for example, "quantitative easing").

The top three teams in the ESPN/USA Today men's college basketball ratings are unchanged.
But after that?
North Carolina (8-0), Connecticut (8-0) and Pittsburgh (9-0) remained the top three teams, according to the votes of 31 Division I head coaches. Unbeatens Gonzaga (6-0) and Oklahoma (8-0) moved up to fourth and fifth, respectively.
The top five teams are the same in The Associated Press' latest poll.
After that, however, the poll shook things up considerably. Duke fell from fourth to seventh after losing at Michigan. Notre Dame fell from seventh to 13th after losing to Ohio State. And UCLA fell from ninth to 14th after losing to Texas.
That opened the door for the Longhorns (sixth, up from eighth), Tennessee (eighth, up from 13th), Xavier (ninth, up from 14th) and Louisville (10th, up from 11th).
Purdue, which was 10th last week, fell to No. 17 after losing to Oklahoma and Duke.

User reviews of Natooke
Best customer experience in a loooong time
I don't even mean in Beijing. I mean even in my experience in the States, this shopping experience was the best. The woman who helped my friend and I was super helpful, knew the product that she was selling (she uses it herself), and had great recommendations. I did a lot of research on an air-pollution mask I was interested in buying, so I knew exactly what I wanted, but even with feeling comfortable enough to go to a new store and buy a product I knew a lot about, she was able to teach me more about her first-hand experience with the product.
They also sell juggling balls, which I'm excited about. Probably not the case for most people, though
Anyway, I forget her name, but the woman who seems like she owns the place and speaks every language is the one to talk to when going here. She knows how to run a store!
I'd definitely go back for some juggling balls or even for advice on what to do with the new bike I bought.

Ask a Lawyer and Get Answers to Your Legal Questions
Candidly, it may very well come down to a small claims suit. However, you may be able to address the situation in another manner.
First, you should certainly try a bit longer to address the matter in the way you've been handling it, attempting to resolve it directly with the contractor. If that doesn't work in the very near future, you may want to retain an attorney to write a demand letter. A demand letter is a rather simple letter that demands that the problem be cured and in a set period of time. Failing this, the letter indicates that the matter will then be pursued by whatever legal means necessary.
If you shop around a bit, you can probably find an attorney to write this simple letter for a nominal fee, perhaps a couple hundred dollars. After all, it won't take but about 30 minutes of his time. It's amazing what a letter from an attorney can do!
Of course, if this doesn't work, the only way to ensure action is to file a lawsuit.
I hope you found my answer helpful. If so, please click on the green ACCEPT for my answer. This is necessary for me to be paid for my work and so that I can get credit for assisting you. Your question will not close, and you will still have the opportunity to follow-up if needed. Leaving a bonus and positive feedback is not required, but doing so is certainly appreciated! Thank you and good luck!
Also, several customers have asked how they may direct a question to me in particular. If you specifically want me to assist you in your legal matter, just put "FOR JOSEPH" in the subject line and I will gladly pick up the question as soon as I am on-line.
I am going off-line for the evening. Please feel free to respond, if necessary, and know that I will be back on-line tomorrow.
Thank you for your patience.
Without any paper contract, will my word hold any water in a judges eye if I were to file a claim? Or, am I basically at fault for allowing this to occur, and I must lay in the bed I made?
A written contract would certainly be helpful, but it isn't required by law in this situation. As to the "helpful" aspect, if you had the terms in writing, it would obviously make your case easier to prove. Without any written evidence, it will come down to your word against his and the judge will need to determine the credibility of each of you to make a ruling.

Kaws X Pushead new colour
People in the queue got a lottery ticket before the store opened, so all 100 were spoken for already.2 Weeks ago in Visual Arts
Kaws X Pushead new colour
These were up for sale at OriginalFake in Tokyo today. Sold out before the shop opened (only 100 available). They used the same 'lottery' method that they do at the Bape store to limit the disruption to traffic around the place. I managed to get one... looks pretty cool. Definitely my favourite out of the 4 colours currently available. They're already up on Yahoo auctions if anyone is interested in buying one at a massively marked up price (they retailed at 16000yen). Amazing how some people are selling a few of these, especially considering it was strictly 1 figure per customer. I guess they took a few friends with them. [URL]2 Weeks ago in Visual Arts
Kaws x Reas
I'd love to, but I can't because : A: I flew out of Tokyo this afternoon. B: The store manager limits buyers to 1 figure per customer per day (I convinced him to let me buy 2 because I was leaving the country, and I wanted to get my bro one for his birthday) There weren't many people queued up (because the release date was a VERY well kept secret), so there 'might' be some left in the shop. I think they were limited to 100 in OriginalFake, but nobody really knows where else they're selling them (other than online in July), so this might be a very limited run. If you really want one, check out Yahoo Auctions.. there's a heap for sale there at double the purchase price already.2 Weeks ago in Visual Arts
Kaws x Reas
They're here!! These dropped at OriginalFake in Tokyo today... I was the lucky first to purchase them (I scored 2 of them) OriginaFake are selling the brown ones at the moment, but a pink one will be coming soon! They also had some cool tee's with the same image that's on box (in shiny gold).2 Weeks ago in Visual Arts

Shock wave - how?
Hi there,
I want to plot the shock waves and the expansion waves of a flow around a flat plate. The simulation is done... How can I plot that inside CFX Post? I want to see the different angles.
Thanks a lot! Mareike
Re: Shock wave - how?
Have a look at tutorial 8, Supersonic flow over a wing.
Glenn Horrocks
Re: Shock wave - how?
hi glenn,
thanks a lot!
ehm... what must i do to see the skin friction?
Re: Shock wave - how?
This tutorial has a free slip boundary on the wing so you won't get any skin friction. You will have to rerun it with a no-slip wing to get skin friction. Also note to get accurate skin friction you will need a much finer mesh than the tutorials use.

One of the oldest and best sources of uncensored Japanese porn videos on the web. I point out the fact that the videos are uncensored because a lot of asian porn sites censor their content, which is really lame. There's nothing worse than watching a censored porno. But you don't have to worry about that here. Another thing you don't have to worry about is lack of updates or variety. They have a huge amount of content and they regularly add new videos. I highly recommend JP18 for fans of Japanese porno. *Update, November 2014 - Unfortunately site appears to be dead. All links redirected to BigTitsTokyo.

Both Sides Now - Poem by Donal Mahoney
I told my wife today
I won't leave the house again
except to feed feral cats that gather
on our patio at dawn
to yowl for grub and water.
Otherwise I'll stay home except
to go to church on Sunday.
At the very least I want to say hello.
The day I die, however, I'll go right
to Feldmann's Funeral Home.
I'll need a lift, of course, but
I paid Feldmann's long ago
to wake me on my stomach,
pants pulled down around my knees
so folks can read my new tattoos,
one ablaze on each buttock,
easy to read in red calligraphy.
The left one screams 'Kiss this'
and the right one shouts 'Or this.'
I'm pro-choice, I guess,
when it comes to this.
