Hi there. Does this app support imports from RSS for different categories, instead of creating articles which you have already created somewhere else? Thanks
This is not RSS reader but if if know PHP then you can modify code delete MySQL queries and put RSS
I'd rather have the option for specific categories to use the naive content or have it linked to an RSS feed that it can parse. I'm not really looking to make code modifications, but thanks for the suggestion.
Contact us by private message or mail & send us more information what RSS data you need and maybe we create this type of solution.

Hello, Please share me the demo apk and admin demo link, we can't see any demo in the listing. Your videos are showing some but it never given an real usage effect. So share me the demo app and admin demo link if everything is good I will buy on next moment. May be others bought your app and may bee they have issues but all are not in equal character so share me the demo apk as I can see you are saying security reasons what was the security reasons…?
Security reasons = somebody can publish something that violates the Google Play rules and that would create a problem for our account like account ban. Contact with our support by mail(on main page of this product- on picture orange text color) or private message.
You are saying about google play but why should you can upload the APK in any free file hosting website. Another thing is you are saying " somebody can publish something that violates the Google Play rules and that would create a problem for our account like account ban. " like this if we purchase you project and we publish the app in google play what about the security issue…? as you are saying about security issue what about the buyers they also have the same security issue na..? So now if we want to buy your project You may need to share us the google play link of any of the customer or your and you also need to share us the admin demo too
It's about demo on our account – if we give admin demo and app demo somebody can create articles with content like pictures/videos that violates Google Play rules. On your account it's different story because you don't give access to whole internet or any user. This is why we create video demo and photo preview where we show everything on phone and tablet. This product also get continuous updates from 2014 to this day 2018 with near 5 star rating so you know that this is pro quality support. We also write you that if you need more info contact us by mail or private message.
That's ok I also agree that if you share us an google play link for downloading the demo app that may ban your account. But you can share the apk that was not hosted in google play and admin which was not updating the content which was hosted in google play. You can give us an demo APK which you can upload it in Dropbox or any other third party free file hosting website and admin demo demo that also you will get free hosting or you can host the admin in your existing hosting by creating an directory. So both of the above will never make you any problem that I was sure because we can see lot of other app developer in codecanyon are doing the same.. So let me know your reply..
More help we can only provide by contact with our support by mail or private message.

NASCAR Update
Ok, seriously, how cool is Dover Downs Casino and Hotel?
I went down to do a couple of trick shots for the Nascar Budweiser Celebrity Billiards Shootout and they put me and my husband up in this room!
I never really understood the whole NASCAR thing before, having only seen it on TV. From our room we could see, hear and feel how freaking fast these guys are going. We even saw a car spin out and hit the wall. It was pretty cool... nah, it was awesome!
The charity event was a huge success. The fans were great and driver Casey Mears won the tournament and $10,000 for the Alzheimer's Foundation of America.
I want to thank George and Janine for inviting me down and putting on a great event!

It was a pleasure meeting you and playing a race to three with you.
As the Host of this event at Dover Downs, it truly was a special day having all those Drivers come out and have such a blast.
So you know, the Owners of the Teams asked the Management of Dover Downs if their Teams could also participate next year as they heard the other Drivers had such a great time. Expect this event to be huge next year.
This turned out to be a fantastic promotion for Pool and I was honored to make it happen.
You can go to my Blog and see photos directly from this event.
Again, it was a pleasure meeting you and I truly enjoyed your trick shot show.

Key Fobs
Posted by | Tuesday, February 3, 2009 at 8:00 AM
This is one of my favorite crafts! They are so cute and very easy to make. I made my first 7 or so in about an hour. I first found instructions for these key fobs here. This tutorial shows you how to use a piece of fabric - but I just use grosgrain ribbon. (Takes less time!) Here are my rough instructions.
*Please note that I am not an accomplished seamstress and will not use proper sewing terms. :)
*I also get some of the supplies at Crafters Vision. You cannot find the key fob hardware at any chain craft stores. Trust me, I looked! The heavy duty webbing is also more easily found online.
1 key fob hardware
10 inch piece of 1.25 inch wide heavy duty webbing
10 inch piece of coordinating 1 inch wide ribbon (grosgrain is best)
1. I always burn the edge of my ribbon when using it in a craft project. It keeps it from fraying and I find burning it kind of fun!
2. I also don't pin the ribbon to the webbing as it is too difficult. I just sew slowly and eyeball the ribbon to be sure its going on straight.
3. That said, all you do is sew your ribbon to the webbing using a short straight stitch.
4. I then use a tight zig zag (possibly called a satin stitch as I learned...) on the ends to prevent fraying again. I don't have a picture of this step - but its not 100% necessary. The original tutorial I linked does not include this.
5. Fold your webbing in half, ribbon side out. Now you'll attach the hardware. This took some time to do a good job. You'll want to use pliers to gently squeeze, alternating sides, until it is good and tight.
You COULD possibly do this project without sewing! I'm fairly certain that it would just fine to GLUE the ribbon to the webbing if you used a really good glue! Just be sure your grosgrain ribbon is thick, otherwise the glue will show.

Watch Azkals vs Kuwait Live Streaming
Do you like this story?
Watch Azkals vs Kuwait live stream online. The Philippine Football Team, more populary known as Azkals, will play against Kuwait in the 2nd Round, 1st Leg of the 2014 FIFA World Cup Qualifier at the Mohammad Al Hamad Stadium, Qadsia on Saturday, July 23, 2011.
ABS-CBN Sports announced that the Philippines vs Kuwait Game 1 primer at 11:30 PM and kick-off at 12:30 AM will air on ABS-CBN.
Sportscaster/anchor TJ Manotoc on Twitter revealed that the first Azkals vs Kuwait match will mark another historic first as the first-ever football game to be televised on the Kapamilya network.
We've read that the match is not only anticipated by Filipinos, but football fans in most parts of Asia also expect that it will be a must-watched sports event.
Kuwait is a much tougher team. In the current FIFA world football ranking, it is ranked 102nd while the Philippines ranks 159th. If the Philippines pulls this one, the Azkals would earn respect from other football teams across nations.
The 2nd Leg (Game 2) of Kuwait vs Philippines, Azkals' home game, will take place at the Rizal Memorial Stadium on Thursday, July 28, 2011. Live streaming links and videos will be provided online.
The winner of the 2 matches will qualify to the 3rd Round, the official raffle of which will be held in Brazil on July 30, 2011.

Organizing a bathroom is a cumbersome task! You have to take care of the space, arrangement, and placement of all the essentials, keeping in mind the existing theme and layout of the bathroom.
We've assembled a curated list of 8 space-saving ideas to help you navigate through the mess, light up space and address the pain point!
1. Wicker Basket
Need to increase the storage capacity of your bathroom? Wicker basket is the solution! These baskets not only keep all the bathroom essentials like extra towels, tissue roll and more in place but also gives a very organic and vintage vibe to space.
2. Under-the-Sink Storage
People often don't pay much attention to the space below the sink. Place a storage basket beneath the sink and stow away anything and everything your bathroom needs!
3. Dress it up
Install a cloth skirt beneath the vanity to hide away all the items. The skirt aids in easy access to the area, and also you can close down the curtains when you have guests in the house. Additionally, keep all the essentials in place by employing storage baskets.
4. Dual Storage
Use the squandered space between vanities to work with a storage unit. A ladder shelf set between the sinks can be used to hold towels, clothes, and other washroom essentials.
5. Easy to Access
A blend of drawers and open storage option for your bathroom. The drawers store things like cosmetics and toiletries, while the open space underneath keeps towels in sight.
6. Floating Shelves
Floating shelf is an excellent option when you are struggling for space. If you have a small bathroom, then opting for a floating countertop is the solution.
7. Clever Storage
When built-ins simply aren't an alternative, turn to the flea market for furniture shopping. This antique box gives a lot of cubby space to save washcloths. The beautiful foldable entryway table is the perfect space-saving solution for any bathroom!
8. Straight and Narrow
Storage is the most looked for aspects in the bathroom. Keep mess in control without overpowering a small space by including a sleek metal rack. Stack the rack with cloths, cleansers, and body scours.

I know from what I've heard that it is a little more physical on your side of the pond. I like all of the embellishments you've included. I'm not really into any sport (I know something must be wrong with me LOL) other than occasionally watching ice skating or a little skiing, but I get bored easily. Hugs, djReplyDelete
Hmmmmm..I DO like football (real football, you know, the kind that involves feet. lol) but could never root for any one team. I'm afraid I'm the kind of person who stands behind whoever's winning!(Good thing I'm 2,000 miles away from you, huh? lol)ReplyDelete
Thanks for joining us at Do You Stack Up and I hope you join us next week too.ReplyDelete
Lots of fun things going on here! Which team do you like again? LOL!!! The medal is a nice touch! Like how you made it vintagy with coffee stains and everything! Very nice Annemaritta!ReplyDelete
I'm not into football, I'm more of a speedskatingfan, but I DO like your creation. I like the vintage look of it, makes it looks really oldReplyDelete
thanks for joining the DYSU challenge

I know what you mean about football. I'm across the pond, but our football actually involves kicking the ball too! I never understood American football - the only time feet meet the ball is in the endzone! On with your card... I love your collage of colours and distressing! Thanks for playing at DYSU this week,ReplyDelete

Loved this... I totally get the glitter thing...
(From Tony Biaggne)
If you're like me, you take more of a wham, bam, thank you Wal*Mart mentality when it comes to Christmas shopping. For me, the thought of making a birdhouse for my mom or a toy for my kids sounds like torture. And here I am, serving as one of the creatives behind a movement that encourages people to give relational gifts like these. But I'm not a builder. In fact, Bob The Builder intimidates me. The very term "arts and crafts" gives me nausea. I hate glitter. And to be honest, the thought of doing some online shopping sounds pretty sweet right about now. But I know I can't because I want to give people something that screams "YES! I LOVE YOU!" I want impact, substance. I want it to be real. So much of my day in and day out is surface living. Surface conversations about the weather. Surface intentions. I go to surface birthdays with a surface gift tucked under one arm, to which I receive a surface "thank you" card a few weeks later. Maybe one day this will change. And maybe this day begins this season, where I dig beneath my surface life to a life where the ol' ticker is pumping loudly and passionately. Yes, it may happen--I just know a birdhouse isn't going to get me there.
Last year a guy from church told us about a gift he gave his dad. It was a bag of coffee beans. A pretty sizable one too. He explained the puzzled look on his dad's face when he opened the gift. Then he told his father he wanted to use this gift as an opportunity to know him more. He wanted to hear stories about this man's life. His childhood. His wedding day. All of it. So, his plan was to call his dad up every Sunday night and hear a story about his life while sharing a cup of coffee made from the beans. Wow, right? See, I can do that, because I want that with my own dad. Now, maybe your relationship with your father isn't like this. Maybe you don't even have someone called "dad" in your life. But I'm willing to bet you have someone that you'd like to get to know more. And where glitter may not cut it, maybe something as simple as coffee beans will.

I went to a friend's party last night and got to know some new folks. But I think my favorite acquaintance was a therapist who coordinates anger management and parenting course for convicted domestic violence abusers. She was really interesting, and responded to my somewhat insistent question very well.
But the best part I like about that coversation was when she explained that she approaches the group as trying to give people who only a have a few tools in their toolbox the chance to realize that they can add to the tools and then are able to accomplish better and more beneficial things, like healthy relationships.
I really liked that until I started to think about the tools. "Don't a lot of people use tools as weapons?"
"That's why I hold off on the power saw for awhile."
I love people who know how to laugh. Therapists laugh a lot. I want to be a therapist and laugh too.

Many of you who've known me for awhile are aware of my secret ambition to have a goat farm and spend my days producing goat cheese, goat yogurt, goat's milk soap and creams, and probably a petting zoo somewhere in there. For the kids (no pun intended).
For a long time one of my favorite refrigerator staples has been
Redwood Hill Goat's Milk Yogurt. The stuff's pretty much as close to ambrosia as you can get, particularly their vanilla flavor sweetened with maple syrup. I always get sad when they run out in the early spring so the mommy goats can nurse the babies. It leaves a little hole in my heart which can only be filled by the thought of baby goats nursing. Ahhhh.
Get some! It's true the texture does change with the seasons and right now it has a truly delicious creamy quality that's worth exploring with your taste buds.

I had an interesting conversation with a friend a little while ago about her long drawn-out and dramatic break-up with an ex. At the point where she was complaining that once he figured out she wasn't going to be making millions as a fancy corporate lawyer he was ready to go, the whole schema of human romance was immediately and nakedly laid out before me.
"Your stock dropped." I said.
"Yes," she agreed. "My stock dropped."
Maybe it's because I am myself hurtling into the corporate and securities world (although hardly making millions), but lately I've been looking around at my particular holdings in an effort to glean whether I should sell, buy, or simply hold out and await the prospects.
There's also shorting, and naked shorting - but I don't like men who cheat on their significant others. Or who try to manipulate the market to satisfy their greed.
For the record, I've always believed the best portfolio is a diversified one. Investing all my funds in one particular venture has proven in the past to cause catastrophic losses. I have also tried to steer away from mutual funds and institutional investors because leaving my dating choices in the hands of third parties has often led to unanticipated loss of worth.
It has lately occurred to me that someone from the past has recently risen in value. This stock has held steady for quite some time, with a sudden dip from unfortunate external circumstances. But it's proven in the past to be an excellent long term investment, provided the investor has the daring to hold out through the dips. And attempted hostile takeovers.
Cynical, cynical. But am I? Comparing the dating game with my shallow understanding of the market, I can come up with figures that would make the averages rise and fall.
Examples (based on an average in a hypothetical efficient market starting at $10/shr):
(For some real fun, calculate your own!)
Causes for stock increases:
1. Winning national martial art competitions.
2. Graduate degrees. Double if the person getting the degree can actually make money with it.
3. Chiseled jaws. Chiseled abs. The ability to use a chisel.
4. An understanding of the absurdity of every human action and a willingness to laugh at it.
5. Speaking another language. Bonus if it's spoken natively.
6. Ability to match pants with shirt. Even better if socks are not conspicuous.
7. A great love for the outdoors. And the living things in it.
8. A great love for the indoors. Particularly when I am the living thing in it.
9. Having a favorite quote that does not come from a Bond movie or the Godfather trilogy.
10. Some artistic pursuit that does not involve self-mutilation or bodily fluids.
Stock falling fast:
1. A criminal record. Double loss if it's a felony.
2. Love handles or beer gut. Or that weird facial hair around the mouth, especially when accompanied by a dirty baseball cap.
3. Having The Complete Work of the Marquis de Sade next to the bed. With knives on top.
4. Mispronouncing foreign words while making it apparent that they think they are pronouncing them correctly.
5. Having kids. With different women.
6. Starting a sentence with "When I was on Jerry Springer...."
7. Starting a sentence with "When I was on The O'Reilly factor..."
8. Starting a sentence at all if there's nothing intelligent or complimentary in it. (Exception to this is #3 under stock increases).
9. Not loving dogs.
10. Psycho ex-girlfriends. That you still talk to. Constantly.
I'll be watching the market for any unexpected jumps. But so far my investments seem to be holding steady if not declining in value. Perhaps I'll look for a white knight*.
("white knights," a friendly bidding firm actively sought by a target firm in order to avoid being taken over by a hostile bidding firm. White knights are particularly vulnerable to overbidding for their targets, i.e., bidding more than the aggregate market value of the target's common stock, since they are, by definition, involved in a competitive bidding contest. )
Not that you could ever overbid me of course.

So, I got into the elite club of Heartless Bitches.
Not that any of you ever doubted it of course.
In other news, I along with a few others have now achieved the modicum of fame that comes with having your name on Wikipedia.
Thanks to whoever did that - you know who you are.

Not for the faint-hearted, but sooo fascinating. I anticipate spending my salary on antique medical texts in the sad regret that I won't be constantly stumbling upon this fun stuff.
BTW - I had a dermoid cyst, but sadly mine did not have teeth. Just a spine. Shiver.
Enjoy, with all the disclaimers.

I absolutely hate Sundays. I hate them like most people hate Mondays. Sundays consist of pure dread over getting back into it. Mondays you are actually getting into it and going. Not really so bad after all. Five weeks and counting and this girl will be a free woman. No more law school!
I did want to make my own quick notes about orthorexia. I appreciate the praise, but I actually wasn't the one who wrote the article. (I'm still shocked that the line "when I cooked at the commune" didn't tip people off. I'm not sure what else I can do to convince everyone I'm not a crazy hippy.)
I realize my alleged orthorexia is a wish for perfect health (and yeah, immortality). But it's actually bigger for me. I am an incredibly indecisive and flaky person (anyone who knows anything about my love life can attest to that fact). So, deciding that certain things are unhealthy actually makes my life a lot easier. Trust me, I get overwhelmed in a bakery like a Frenchman in the wine aisle. So, instead of wanting everything, sometimes it's easier to concentrate on the things I know I can have. So, no sugar means you start enjoying well, black coffee.
Case in point. Lent is officially over so I can have dessert again - so a couple of friends and I decided to head to Sucre to celebrate with their amazing banana and nutella gelato. But as the hour approached I found myself dreading it. I realized I didn't really miss sugar or desserts and I had felt so amazing with all the residual effects it has on me eating healthily. And just the thought of all those colorful neatly ordered pastries already had me whirling in a world of indecision. Is it so wrong that I was happy the place was closed for Easter Sunday?
Hm, maybe that's sick. Or maybe it's just normal. I'm tired of worrying about it, and I think everyone else needs to stop worrying too.

People become foreigners all the time. Mostly by pure accident. It happens when you come into a new place and find yourself looking on with absolutely no attachment. Most of the time you think you know places because you remember the events there, but being in those places later you understand that the events were invisible, and you have become the same. Like when you kiss a lover goodbye at the train station, only to find later that returning to the scene over many years that event has been erased completely by the tread of many footprints. Or the exact spot where you were standing when you find out a friend is dead.
Returning, the attachment has dissipated, the emotion is gone. And the place only exists in your mind like it was at the time. The concrete location becomes as intangible and movable as the set on a film. Existing only in a Technicolor recording, including everything but permanence. And so very disposable.
This is how I feel about my days in New Orleans right now. People returning home after the hurricane almost three years ago probably knew this foreignness. It stole upon them while they looked at a lake with a city buried underneath it. And maybe they wished that part of themselves was also underwater, moving around in familiar surroundings, doing what they had always done before their world filled up with water. Because under that water there was still a remnant of reality. Well, maybe.
Maybe years later when the orthorexia fails and I become old and wrinkled out on my goat farm in Wyoming, I'll think back to my time here. Not events maybe. Maybe just news lived as events. Sometimes it's hard to tell the difference between what happens in a place, and what happened outside of it but was told to you in that place.
I've decided to stop trying to decide if anything's important. Because all I learn is that nothing really is. And if there really is no reality, no one can be faulted for clinging to a dream.

I finally realized how much of a difference not eating sweets makes when I stepped on the scale this morning. I haven't weighed myself in ages, but I've decided to go all out and get under 135 again. However, the reading today was 134.5. Yah! Soo...now I'll try 130? We all need goals after all. I'd like to get back to my pre-law school lithe self.
I did have a giggle today when a friend tried to pointedly send me this article. Ok, I totally obsess about what I eat - but I do it because it makes me feel healthy, energetic, and happy to just not let certain things go into my body. And I try not to judge people when they eat candy bars or drink diet soda. Or at least disguise my judgment. Unlike me, people probably have better things to do than read 20 nutrition books in a year.
I would also like to point out that I haven't always been like this, and my body didn't quite like it -- so in effect, instead of searching for the fountain of youth, I am actually making up for lost time. Or maybe just all those nutella and blue cheese sandwiches I've always been fond of.
Yeah, I admit that "eating normally" is kind of gross and so would most people if they read ingredient labels. So sue me for eating an apple. Just get ready to shoot your kids up with some insulin. I used to be all about public health insurance until I realized all the free-riding involved. Now I've decided they need health insurance for orthorexics like me. :)
Orthorexia Nervosa
Many of the most unbalanced people I have ever met are those who have devoted themselves to healthy eating. In fact, I believe some of them have actually contracted a novel eating disorder for which I have coined the name "orthorexia nervosa." The term uses "ortho," meaning straight, correct, and true, to modify "anorexia nervosa." Orthorexia nervosa refers to a pathological fixation on eating proper food.
Orthorexia begins, innocently enough, as a desire to overcome chronic illness or to improve general health. But because it requires considerable willpower to adopt a diet that differs radically from the food habits of childhood and the surrounding culture, few accomplish the change gracefully. Most must resort to an iron self-discipline bolstered by a hefty dose of superiority over those who eat junk food. Over time, what to eat, how much, and the consequences of dietary indiscretion come to occupy a greater and greater proportion of the orthorexic's day.
The act of eating pure food begins to carry pseudospiritual connotations. As orthorexia progresses, a day filled with sprouts, umeboshi plums, and amaranth biscuits comes to feel as holy as one spent serving the poor and homeless. When an orthorexic slips up (which may involve anything from devouring a single raisin to consuming a gallon of Haagen Dazs ice cream and a large pizza), he experiences a fall from grace and must perform numerous acts of penitence. These usually involve ever-stricter diets and fasts.
This "kitchen spirituality" eventually reaches a point where the sufferer spends most of his time planning, purchasing, and eating meals. The orthorexic's inner life becomes dominated by efforts to resist temptation, self-condemnation for lapses, self-praise for success at complying with the chosen regime, and feelings of superiority over others less pure in their dietary habits.
This transference of all of life's value into the act of eating makes orthorexia a true disorder. In this essential characteristic, orthorexia bears many similarities to the two well-known eating disorders anorexia and bulimia. Where the bulimic and anorexic focus on the quantity of food, the orthorexic fixates on its quality. All three give food an excessive place in the scheme of life.
As often happens, my sensitivity to the problem of orthorexia comes through personal experience. I myself passed through a phase of extreme dietary purity.
When I wasn't cooking at the commune, I managed the organic farm. This gave me constant access to fresh, high-quality produce. I became such a snob that I disdained any vegetable that had been plucked from the ground for more than 15 minutes. I was a total vegetarian, chewed each mouthful of food 50 times, always ate in a quiet place (which meant alone), and left my stomach partially empty at the end of each meal.
After a year or so of this self-imposed regime, I felt clear-headed, strong, and self-righteous. I regarded the wretched, debauched souls about me downing their chocolate chip cookies and french fries as mere animals reduced to satisfying gustatory lusts. But I wasn't complacent in my virtue. Feeling an obligation to enlighten my weaker brethren, I continually lectured friends and family on the evils of refined, processed food and the dangers of pesticides and artificial fertilizers.
I pursued wellness through healthy eating for years, but gradually I began to sense that something was going wrong. The poetry of my life was disappearing. My ability to carry on normal conversations was hindered by intrusive thoughts of food. The need to obtain meals free of meat, fat, and artificial chemicals had put nearly all social forms of eating beyond my reach. I was lonely and obsessed.
Even when I became aware that my scrabbling in the dirt after raw vegetables and wild plants had become an obsession, I found it terribly difficult to free myself. I had been seduced by righteous eating.
The problem of my life's meaning had been transferred inexorably to food, and I could not reclaim it.

Mother Teresa
So, a friend sent me this recently which is supposedly (but not verifiably) what Mother Teresa had on her wall in the orphanage in Calcutta. Who cares whether or not it's true, it's certainly beautiful.
People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway.
What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway.
The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway.
Give the best you have, and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway.
In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.

If good people are the people I had to deal with today, I have now made the decision to turn my back and be wicked. Wickedly compassionate, wickedly outspoken, wickedly graceful, wickedly bitchy, just lovely wicked all around. Because sometimes a girl just has to be wicked in order to keep from going insane by becoming convinced she has now landed in the middle of a Kafka novel. If I wrote a book about this whole stupid thing, it would be pure wickedness. And disappointment that no matter how much I was hoping this clinic would be rewarding, when people decide they don't like you it absolutely does not matter how hard you try. You're just wicked.
Wickedness is a myth invented by good people to account for the curious attractiveness of others." ~Oscar Wilde
I think curiously attractive fits me as well as Wicked. And despite it all reminds me that as of today I am wickedly leaving behind any sense of obligation to people who aren't curiously attractive enough to be wicked.
One of my colleagues pointed out that clinic people always have issues with big firm people because they label us as cold and capitalist, and they're pissed that people are actually happy working for the big man, making money, and still finding their jobs rewarding. I don't know if I think that's true - but I have noticed everyone has only started freaking out once they found out I am working at my firm (which my clinic director has had no problem telling me in the past she despises).
I also know for two months my co-counsel kept mispronouncing my client's name despite me trying to correct him before conference calls. And he told me he can handle all the calls because he "knows how to talk to black people." Let's just hope it's not with contempt. And they think I'm really awful. Hm. Perhaps I should leave him a phonetic guide now that I'm no longer on the case. Or maybe not.
I may not always be kind and considerate. At times, particularly when people are being unfair to me or others, I am imperious and defensive. I think being a litigator requires these skills anyway. But I'm honest, I'm noble, I'm true, and I will forever be passionately wicked.
Evil cackle. Six weeks to go and then I'm free! Life looks good again.

Finally, a website with people as angry as myself. I feel so vindicated.
My fave read so far:
That Branch Up Your Ass - It Isn't Attractive
(Nov 5, 2007)
by Korin Mumford
I recently had the misfortune of being exposed to another one of those puke-inducing sentimentality emails - you know, the kind that go on and on about how a Twue Fwiend (tm) will do X, Y, and Z for you, and aren't you glad you said you loved your mother today? This one, however, was a pathetic attempt to salve the egos of a certain type of girl and at the same time reinforce the idea that she's incomplete on her own and must just wait for the man to come along, while continuing to create the ideal of women as prizes for men to compete over.
"Tree of Life"
Girls are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the tree. The boys don't want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they just get the rotten apples from the ground that aren't as good, but easy. So the apples at the top think something is wrong with them, when in reality, they're amazing. They just have to wait for the right boy to come along, the one who's brave enough to climb all the way to the top of the tree.
Vomit-inducing crap. So I turned around and sent it back to the sender, along with a list of questions.
So, are you assuming you're one of the apples at the top of the tree or at the bottom?
If you're assuming you're one of the ones at the top...why? What makes you that special?
What criteria does it take for a woman to be considered one of the "rotten apples from the ground"?
Why don't you think you fit that description?
What, exactly, is this email supposed to do?
Okay, so it's a sad try at soothing the bruised egos of girls who can't get a boyfriend, right?
Have you ever wondered WHY those girls can't get a boyfriend?
Have you ever wondered why they're all so desperate to get one, anyway?
What's wrong with being happy with yourself as a whole, individual, independent person?
Why must you base your sense of self-worth on whether or not you have boys after you? You see, if you had your own inherent sense of self-worth and self-esteem, you wouldn't start to wonder "what's wrong with me?" when you're single.
Furthermore, if you're so desperate to be part of an "us" instead of just being an "I", why the hell are you sitting at the top of your tree with a branch up your ass, waiting?
Oddly enough, I haven't heard from her since. I wonder why that is ...

As if I needed one more reason to hate the Kennedys ...
I've been watching the documentary "Taking on the Kennedys" about Kevin Vigilante's run against Patrick Kennedy for Rhode Island Congressman. I really wish Vigilante had won because Patrick, like the rest of his corrupt drunkard sexually assaulting lobotomizing family, is total crap. Of course he had a few extensive operations, but I think his appearance of being mentally handicapped is purely genetic.
I also wish Vigilante had won because he tried to play so fair. ("She asked me if I had ever used marijuana. I said yes. What was I going to do, lie?") Yeah, Hillary.
My ex recently told me that when we met he was intimidated because I was so Hillary Clinton-esque. This probably explains why our break-up was inevitable.
Why not Teresa Heinz Kerry - cultured, multilingual? Or Angelina Jolie - hot, UN Ambassador? Ok, I may be neither of the above, but I also don't have a butch blonde haircut and a philandering husband. And no matter how many times it behooves me to do it, I play fair.
At least he didn't say Carolyn Kennedy.

I really like my job - it makes me happy and hopeful that maybe law is actually going to be fun as opposed to the neverending stress of law school where you have to balance an amazing amount of other random and arbitrary activities which serve as either total timesucks or the obstacles on a steeplechase. (To add to that steeplechase analogy - there are a LOT of very crippled horses running it, including myself).
But at my job, I know everyone - the place has sort of self-selected for compatible personalities and we all know how to work hard. Maybe I should clean up my office once in awhile because it's kind of messy.
One unexpected source of bliss has been me challenging myself to doing yoga 30 times in 30 days. I started with the Beginning Yoga, but that got too easy too fast (I've done it a lot before back in my thinny days where I'm trying to return). So I got this DVD Kundalini Yoga for Beginners and Beyond by Ana and Ravi.
At first I thought it was retarded or maybe training for porn. It has this mystical cum electronica beat and the guy narrates over with this super new agey commentary which borders on giggle fest. The best part is watch the girl "dance" at the beginning - she's adorably awkward. Even this white girl can dance better that that. The beginner's workout (I'm not quite ready for the Tibetan rites yet) consists of all these weird back and forth thrusting breathing repitive motions which can get a bit monotonous after doing it for oh say 3 mins. The first time I did it I thought it was completely worthless. But I've recently returned to it consistently these days as an alternative to the other stuff and let me tell you - this really gets the tension out and makes me feel very calm - which is saying something these days.
Recommended! And a side-note it mysteriously has curbed my nicotine cravings. Yah!

A business my father spent twenty years of his life building into a multi-million dollar company literally went up in flames yesterday.
My father has recently moved on - largely because like me, he doesn't like having people tell him what to do when he can do it better. And we share the same disdain for indolent and useless rich families siphoning profits of the backs of the people who make them. Mercedes or workers' retirement plans? I'm starting to wonder if this might be arson. German cars raid corporate funds. Luckily, an investigation is underway - so we'll see.
It even made the Houston Chronicle. And the New York Times. Such strange advertisements.
But still, such an eerie feeling to see a place I've known since a girl of 7 exploding on the evening news and taking with it 2 firefighters. Everytime I go home there seems to be figurative conflagrations all around. I suppose for once I should be grateful that one is occasionally literal.
RIP to so so much.

Resolved first - Serial killers:
Best as witty friends whose friendship has a pure and undeniable scarlet thread of pure sexual tension under the rippled surface of perplexed emotions that will never fully be resolved. Which gives you something to look forward to without all the added pressure of becoming something that you will never look forward to again.
Resolved second - Canadians
I still love them.
Resolved third - Bullying supervising attorneys at my clinic
Suck it.
Resolved fourth - People who still think it's okay to have their cell phones on vibrate during the MPRE
I hope the bar weeds you out. And if not, I hope you are my opposing counsel.
Resolved fifth:

Let's get one thing straight ladies and gentlemen. This girl really really likes having time to herself. (To clarify - we are not speaking of the euphemism for masturbation here. I don't plan on blogging about masturbation and I'm sorry if you are disappointed by that fact. Perv!)
What I'm talking about is some good old-fashioned time alone to fancy, folly, and flitter away the hours enjoying only the demands of one's own company.
I think school did this to me. I like about 1.7% of the people at my school. For the rest, I'm pretty indifferent unless I have the fleeting thought that they are loud, obnoxious, and could do with eating a little humble pie and/or being exposed to hazardous chemicals.
Most of the time, though, I don't care because the majority of law students are encapsulated in a world of pure self-grandeur which unfortunately has been largely vindicated by the world, and promises to only get freakier as time goes on. Which is a funny thing to observe. I become an unwilling eavesdropper on many inane conversations such as:
1. Talk about baseball by boys who look like they could never pick up a baseball bat themselves or stop me if I tried to beat them to death with one;
2. Talk about how steep the curve is, which shows that it isn't steep enough because there are still people out there lame enough to believe that grading in law school isn't pretty much arbitrary;
3. Talk about how hard you are not working, which doesn't quite veil the fact you are actually working hard at making your hard work look effortless so everyone can assume you are a genius when you know very well that you are not;
4. Talk about how hard you ARE working - which just makes you tiresome (sadly, guilty);
5. Talk about American Idol or Top Model (unless made with irony or including the statement "I don't watch that crap.");
6. Talk about the random celebrity you met in a major city whose temporary ride on shallow fame might have rubbed off on you for the five seconds it took you to relate that pointless anecdote;
7. Talk about hair (also guilty, but working on it);
8. Talk about where you were on September 11th (for many in my class, that would be "in diapers");
9. Talk about your exotic vacation plans that goes beyond the fact that you will thankfully be very far away from me.
Some would call this anti-social. I call it Confucianism : as in, I only give a shit about you if I like you. Otherwise, I'd appreciate it if you lowered your voice because I don't care, I don't think you're important, and I do my best to stay out of your way. So please return the favor. Especially you, white yuppy guy on a cell phone at Mona's Cafe where I am trying to study Securities Regulations.
My one guaranteed zen moment of walking my dogs every day is my time to refocus and start trying to like people and not blog these crazy unforgiving things. And that is not possible if I am accompanied by a drunk neighbor who chatters aimlessly on, steals flowers from people's yards, and slows me down because she is in heels.
Also, if you keep trying to friend me on facebook and I keep ignoring you, you might want to get the point and stop trying. I have not let you into my club - and the membership is currently full.
All day I have incessant chatter. Sometimes, all I want is infinite silence.
Maybe the key to calm is simply always wearing earplugs. Or moving to a galaxy far far away.

Serial Killers
So, my temporary lapse into insanity has...um, relapsed. Therefore, for everybody's entertainment I think it is time to write the entry on those strange dating moments where a certain ambiguity arises. That ambiguity being:
Is this guy a fantastic whimsical whirl of romance - or is he just a serial killer?
It's an easy trap to fall into I think. There's something charming about someone who has an extremely neat apartment and an affinity for peanut butter and jelly sandwiches that extends to their sketchbook. And actually gives you the sketchbook to look at.
Yes, there's something strangely attractive about people who have chalkboards in their kitchen labelled "Things to Acquire" with pieces of furniture, various produce items, and good books on it. And a complete drum set with Book 5 of the "Teach Yourself to Drum" series open on the music stand. And about six guitars.
Yeah, I need to get over this nonsense, and consider myself rescued from a narrow tango with potential homicide. And stop trying to come up with witty retorts to his texts. I need my wit for real things, after all.
On another note, I finally bucked it up and tried to get what is so great about Gray's Anatomy - unsuccessfully. I think a really great episode is where they all get into a mass accident, have to operate on each other and make very bad mistakes resulting in long, slow and miserable deaths. Oh yeah, and they're mute - so instead of all the angst we can just enjoy the soundtrack.
Back to pretentious foreign cinema.

ELLIOTT Advisors pushed back at the board of Swiss biotech company Actelion yesterday with a letter from its proposed board members.
In a letter from Actelion Shareholders for Choice, a lobby vehicle set up by Elliott, the six prospective directors said they would cut costs and bring better new drugs to market.
It said the board's research and development strategy had failed, costs had risen and it had insisted on independent ownership that had not adapted to its circumstances.
"We believe that shareholder value is being eroded and will continue to be destroyed unless firm and decisive action is taken by all shareholders now to encourage comprehensive change to the board," they said. They added that Actelion's view that Elliott seeks a quick sale of the company was "completely untrue".
Elliott has proposed to Actelion that chairman Robert Cawthorn and chief executive Jean-Paul Clozel step down at the annual meeting on 5 May.

So I had this dream (17/5/2013 before dawn) I really want to talk about, I had many epic dreams in my life, and i always wanted to write them down, yet i guess this is the first time i actually do it.
i have sense (no scientist facts to back me up) that how complicated and how much details your dream have direct connection to the complexity to your brain, and your capability to use it, it is only my guts feeling, that dreams are like the software and your brain is the hardware, if your hardware isn't advance enough, the result you see won't be too impressive, at the same time, if your software isn't powerful enough, no matter how advance your hardware is, it just won't produce anything.
Anyway, before we begin, i wish i am a great artist can truly illustrated every single details and scenes in my dream, because none of these pictures i found on internet come close to what my perspective of the future in my dream, maybe in the future i can find someone to draw precisely as i remembered.
Also bear in mind i had no control over my dream, and i have absolutely no idea how these concept came out, i think it combines a lot of Si-fi movies and futuristic books i watch and read over the years, some of the stuffs i saw have already been discussed in real life, but many of them i think it is truly generated purly from my brain during my dream, some expert say our brain is so locked up due to restriction, rules, logic and emotion suppression in reality when we are awake, when we have self-control, so our brain can only release its true capability when we are in deep sleep, when only we are relax, and not in control.
Living in 2099
Anyway, lets start off with when i realize i am in 2099, i "woke up" in a room, i know it is my home, i was living by myself, i also know it is 2099 (for no particular reason except everything is very futuristic and roughly 100 years from now). My identity haven't changed much from my reality - a typical lower middle class who have to work everyday, but the room is a bit dark, because it is in the evening, my apartment is like in the mid sky, when i look out the windows, i see all buildings in the city is relatively tall compare to nowaday's skyscrapers, due to over-population, everything have to build up vertical, consider 60 billions is hard to handle today in 2013, think of the population will be growing exponentially in 100 years time, think of 300-500 billions of people living on this planet in 2099, things have to develop upward.
City Planning
In my dream, I am living somewhere between 120-140 level of a public housing, already consider to be lower deck, and when i looked out my windows, there are many floors above me, and further way there are some commercial buildings, they are built to be as tall as the earth atmosphere, i don't see buildings, i see a bunch of "sticks" poking to the sky above the cloud, the difference between luxury apartments and normal apartments is that, luxury apartments are set above the cloud, so there are always sunshine, while normal apartments like myself have to accept we will always affected by the weathers.
the material of the building is no more bricks and steel, it is a composition i cannot understand, but the whole apartment is like a single composition, it means it was built as a modules.
Yet one thing i can remember very clear is, everything in the city is being optimized, from traffics, pedestrian flow, shopping mall, estimate time to destination. I didn't see many vehicles in my dream, but i have this idea that if i want to buy anything, i will be informed where and how to get it, or ask for delivery to my door. People go out and do not find what they need will be impossible, and cars don't have to wait for pedestrian, and they won't be any car crashes, or hitting people on the road, because everything will be in automation, no traffic lights anymore, things just run extremely smooth and super efficient. Men and vehicles are completely separated. Every facilities will also be optimized for everyone, disables, special needs, when new needs occurs, all the facilities will adapt and add new modules for particular needs in an extreme efficient time manner.
Aircraft? Too much risk!
One thing i notice in my dream is that use of aircraft have been eliminated, aircraft have become antique in 2099, people see flight vehicle as we see steam engine nowadays, because it is too much risk of flying. Instead people are traveling by vacuum bullet train between different countries, this idea is definitely not from me, i read this concept when i was 5 and it have been sticking in my head forever.
However in my dream i added a bit more explanation to it, the "tube" is so well developed the network come across everywhere between continents, when the tube is at a vacuum status, the train can travel as the speed of bullets, and engineers have more control over then an aircraft which need to deal with turbulence and much more uncertainties. you shoot the train which hover in the middle of the tube by magnetic fields, no more take off, landing risk, no more fiction, air resistance, thus acceleration, safety are all superior than aeroplanes, and the tubes are very flexibility, almost organic, can it adapt to water flow, even earth quakes.
Space travel? It is so not necessary!
In most of the si-fi, like starwar, star trek, spaceship has been invented for exploration, because "space, our final frontier!" and it is attractive and cool. Yet in my dream, spaceships are not so popular, people get to space by space evaluator, works pretty much like the vacuum tube, except it is vertical. People are being "shot" to space inside a carrier, the space stations are orbiting the earth inline with the rotation speed of the earth. Space stations are mainly for commercial, e.g. shopping, romantic dinner, office (because the rent is cheaper outer space than on land).
What about space travel, the exploration, the advantage, like the U.S.S. Enterprise in Star Trek? Space exploration in 2099 is pretty much like going to the Amazon forest, or north pole, do people nowadays find interest in an icebreaker heading to north pole? yes, for scientists and environmental protection organization e.g. green peace, or few individual want to travel far far away for couple months, not so much for a normal citizen, nor the government, because there isn't much useful things out there, and more importantly, people just don't care, they have their own business and family need to deal with on daily basic, not much different from today.
Social Structures
As you can see, the major cities are developed majorly vertical and horizontal in my dream, and left a large amount of airspace only few will use, in order to minimize the risk of flight crashing and incalculable weather.
What about the society? Do unfairness or discrimination have been eliminated? I think i am pretty certain in my dream is that, the system has been advanced and evolved, but human is pretty much the same, i will get back to human in the last section. In my dream, citizen have been specified in such details your ID will have information like: Yim Tien Ho Calvin, Class D3 citizen, address: Apt 4003, section 45D, code 8546A4542, Job: financial service, Nature: Insurance, post: Insurance agents, date of birth: 10/01/1982.
Citizen have been identified into many classes, like you would be in a company, this will help the authority to keep track of all citizen for efficient and effective arrest if any crime happens, as you can imagine, it is extremely difficult to keep a low crime rate when the population of a single city have reached 1 billion.
The lower class, middle class and upper class separation have no changed much, the poor become poorer and the rich do indeed become richer. The lower class live in the bottom of the city or the public housing, the upper class do reach the sky literally because their apartment are all above clouds, and middle class are somewhere in between.
Party in the space, and complaining and fighting at the bottom at the lower deck, there is nothing new under the sun. And for country side, either you are getting some extremely luxury mansion, most of the house are for people who do not enjoy a busy city life.
Religions and Cultures
People who hate religions always dream they will be vanished in the future, in my dream the major religions still exist and become strong, Catholic, Christianity, Islamic and Buddhism do not disappear with the advance of technology, in fact it grows even stronger. And there are many little religions come and go, that have not root deep in the history. Funny thing i do see a small church at around level 150 from my windows, and a Buddhist temple at another building further away, religions just adapt the culture and changes of this world, as their core value do satisfy human desires, that many do not feel the needs of it, remain deists, atheists or skeptic.
More over, many people still suffer from low-esteem or self-doubt, so there are many guru, psychologist, public figures, spiritual leaders that wrote self-help books or talk show who are earning millions of dollars from it, just like today, you name it, they will have it.
The world will have so much varieties, being classified into detailed catalog in the government's central system, some are legal and some are not, which a lot of people resist to do so today, they will have no choice in the future of my dream.
Laws and Orders
Pretty much the same, but zillions more different new scenario will be applied, things that we find weird or unacceptable today. Think of 200 years ago, even the most forward thinking and open minded person cannot accept many ways we live today, so we called them dinosaurs, and we will be called the same in the future.
It is easy to understand, to govern so many people, things need to be specific and effective, China is doing it right now, holding the largest population of the a single country, manage 13 billions people without proper laws and orders will be impossible, and extremely at risk of collapse. Imagine after 100 years, even a less dense country like USA will become as sizable as China today, and for China, the numbers will be enormous.
There is particular one memory in my dream is that, there is a law enforce on every citizen who know they are going to die, e.g. in the hospital, they have to create a song and sing it when they pass away, yes, a law, i don't know how my brain make that up. The law is base on a proof that creativity and music will somehow help human to accept our final destiny easier, and by expressing it (singing out) will make us go away more peacefully. It is a compulsory act, not a citizen can choose from, yet when this regulation is executed, it doesn't look very mean, it's more like few doctors and nurse will encourage you to sing it out, and the patients will start singing, some refuse because they don't want to die, but some will accept and go away peacefully. I know it is kinda weird, but what is not in the future at today's standard?
In my dream, i see high tech artificial limbs, people like Nick Vujicic won't have problem to take care of himself (not like he can't now, but you know what i mean) without any assistance, but you think the technology will kill all the disease and humanity will have all healthy and happy? Precisely the direct opposite, more virus, more disease appeared, people live a longer life, because the medical also offer a counter to the new virus and disease, medical industry will be as important as financial industry today, many new medicines are invented, but at the end of the day, which side is winning? pretty much like today.
genetic engineering is like the new mechanical engineering in the industrial revolution and electronic and digital engineering today. People will keep trying to play the God we can never be, we can start manipulating, altering life, try to change the fate of mankind, but at the end of the day, we can never create life.
Have human evolved? probably not also, our nature is the same in the past, now and will always be the same in the future, the desire for food, drinks, sex, social status, respect, remain the same, the society just give us different package at different stage of human history. There will be people always not happy with their life, people complain the government is the big brother want to control all, people find joy in relationship, suffer from it, office politics, people get fired, there are jerk, punk, nice guy, genius, idiots, nothing change much. Yet overall, human will be degrading as time goes on, no robots or aliens come to destroy us and run our life, we do that to ourselves
There you have it, reminiscences of my dream, I was only standing at the terrace of my level 120+ apartment, and the pictures still inside my head and everything i tried to figure out inside my dream, i am pretty sure the future won't be exactly the same, but i hope you will find this article interesting, even realistic. :D

Had a tough time kicking yself out of the bed the morning to walk but I am always so glad I do afterwards.
Lazy breakfast, errands, fighting a nap, beach afternoon with sunset bonfire, roasted divver over the flames and smores with neighbors... not a bad ending at all.
Fighting sleep now but still have to do almost all on my "list."
Had a nice time this morning reading and communing with myself while boys were at yoga.
All in all, a lovely day, even if the end results are still a fight away.

LGBTIQ+ couples don't always fit into the mold of traditional bride and groom. As a non-traditional couple you might be interested in switching up some of the traditional events to a newer modern day approach.
Working with wedding vendors is obviously a helpful tool, rather than doing it yourself. After all they most likely planned and attended more weddings than you will ever experience. Vendors know the ins and outs of the business and frequently offer great advice. There is only one problem, how can you assure that vendors will be willing to break free of the cookie-cutter wedding traditions they are accustomed to?
LGBTIQ+ couples don't always fit into the mold of traditional bride and groom. As a non-traditional couple you might be interested in switching up some of the traditional events to a newer modern day approach.
Below are a few tips and tactics for dealing with traditional vendors:
1. Communication from the get go
Communicate your non-traditional and/or LGBTIQ+ status during initial contact with vendor. This can be done easily with either the straight forward approach "we are a same-sex couple" or "we are leather loving gothic same-sex couple" or the subtle approach "my fiancé (insert name/pronoun) and I'm planning on having a gothic wedding…".
2. Expressing you want to change things up
Make sure your vendor has a clear mindset that all wedding traditions are open for modification. Depending on your country's or states' Marriage Laws, in the USA for example, there are only two essential parts of a wedding: (1) the presentation of marriage vows (2) the pronouncement of Marriage by a celebrant or officiant. All other traditions are yours to use, not use or play around with.
3. Prepare questions
Upon meeting with potential vendors it is a good idea to be prepared with a list of questions. The most important question might be: "have you ever worked with a same-sex couple before?" and "have you worked with non-traditional couples wanting to have a wedding that's different to most?" Chances are they might have already dealt with non-traditional situations or they might be excited to be presented with the opportunity.
4. Feel comfortable with your vendor
Your vendor should make you feel like he/she are excited to be part of your big day! If you don't feel that they are a good fit for you both in personality and their willingness to understand what you're after, they may not be the best fit for you.
Bad fit example 1: The photographer you're looking at hiring shoots very posed and structured images, but you're after a more candid approach. Don't hire them expecting them to deliver candid images when this is simply not their style.
Bad fit example 2: Your videographer isn't interested in meeting you before you book to show you more of their work, understand how they shoot and what to expect from them and their crew on the day.
5. Work as a team
Yes, you are paying your vendor to get the job done but be sure to put the time into sharing ideas/concerns. Sharing ideas will not only get you what you are looking for but could also present a new direction that you haven't yet thought of. The key here is not to mold them into something they are not (see item 4 above about being a good fit).
Example: Your florist asks you if you need any boutonnieres for the groomsmen. Since may not have a "groom", together you come up with a list of what you could call these male participants of your wedding: men of honour, brothers of honour, bridesmen, etc.
Vendors reading this can check out next week's article on how to use inclusive language when dealing with LGBTIQ+ clients.
These five tips and tactics are sure to help your experience when working with traditional vendors. Though, it is likely, after being hired by you, they won't be so "traditional" any longer.
Help grow our list by adding your own ideas and tips below!
What really helped us out was attending bridal shows. We were able to meet with lots of vendors at once, as well as gauge vendors' willingness and ability in working with same sex couples. We actually found some vendors had extra portfolios of prior same sex events they worked with.
That is helpful. Thanks for your comment Leigh :)
so i am not planning a wedding right now but great tips

Series of vehicle break-ins in Haverhill prompts police appeal
Police are appealing for witnesses or information following a number of incidents of theft from vehicles in Haverhill.
Between 11pm on June 11 and 8am the next day the rear window of a Vauxhall Insignia on Windsor Terrace was smashed.
An iPad and holdall stolen from within. Neighbours reported hearing a car alarm being activated shortly after 4am
Overnight on June 10 an Audi A5 car on Hamlet Road was entered and several items including a dash camera, were stolen.
Sometime between 8pm on June 12 and 8.15am the next day, offender/s stole four HGV batteries from two articulated lorries on Homefield Road.
On Downs Crescent at around 5.20am on June 14 a Ford Fiesta vehicle was broken into by three men and an audio adaptor and power cable were stolen. The Items were later recovered. Anybody with any information are asked to call Police on 101 quoting reference 41456/17-Windsor Terrace, 41460/17-Hamlet Road, 41527/17-Homefield Road and 41723/17-Downs Crescent.
Suffolk Police remind vehicle owners/drivers to consider taking the following steps:
•Do not leave anything on display in your car, thieves can sometimes mistake them for valuables and the damage they can do to the car to get in can be costly.
•Take all your belongings with you when you leave the car. If you cannot, then lock them in the boot out of sight.
•CD Players and Stereos – remove them if you can, get them security marked and keep a note of serial numbers.
•Sat Navs – remove unit and holder from windscreen, wipe the residue circle from the screen (this could indicate to a thief you have hidden the unit in the car).
•Keep your keys safe.
•Fit security devices - electronic immobiliser, mechanical immobiliser, locking wheel nuts, vehicle alarm.
Further crime prevention advice including security for tradesmen's vehicles can be found at www.suffolk.police.uk/advice/crime-prevention-z

Most law schools, Loyola included, grade on a mandatory curve, so half the students finish in the bottom half of their class, typically for the first time in their high-achieving lives
FYI, half of all high school graduates, graduated in the bottom half of their class.
I think the conclusion you walk away from the article is that there is a big difference in pay within the field, just like every profession and MD who is a dermatologist on the North Shore is going to make much more than a GP in Peoria. It is a host of factors, some skill and intelligence based, some market based and some just chance.
The article does provide some insight however into why so many attorneys want to be judges (better pay).

I'm a legal permanent resident here in the U.S and I applied for a green card for my daughter 3 years ago as a minor unmarried child. However, she turned 21 yesterday and her petition will be exactly 3 years old in 4 months time. I know due to the fact that she had already turned 21, she might not be able to apply for the v-2 visa even though she is qualified. Now, I would like to know whether the recently passed law (H.R 1209) which addresses the issue of children aging out while their application is pending, will make my daughter now eligible for the v-2 visa even though she has just turned 21. I'll really appreciate any advice from anyone.
I know this is a very very technical question because the V-2 visa is supposed to expire immediately the child turns 21, while the V-1 visa (for spouse of L.P.R) lasts for 10 years, I wonder why there is such discrimination for children of permanent residents there and also does anyone have any ideas on whether the congress is taking any steps to address this issue too ? Thanks

OK, here's the drill. My wonderfully accurate 7.5" Bisley Hunter is a PITA to carry and practically requires a hand over hand draw, so I have pretty much talked myself into trading it in one a 4" S&W 629 or a 4"-5.5" Ruger Redhawk. THis is being done with an eye towards moving to AK with primary job as everyday walk around in the bush belly gun.
The Ruger is big, somewhat unrefined, but KISS simple in dfesign and strong as a 44 Mag can be built.
The S&W 629 (I would love another Mountain Gun but the only ones around are a signature " Cabelas Outfitters" model over at Cabelas in East Grand Fork) has about as sexy of lines as a handgun can be made and come out of the box with a passable trigger, but not as sturdy as a Redhawk and more mechanically complex.
I have had a few of both handguns over the years and know their pros/cons well, but not as an AK use bellygun. So really am looking for AK BTDT guys' opinions as I am absolutely split 50/50 on which to get...

Publisher's Summary
What you thought you knew about the Bible is about to change.
What if you found out you were the granddaughter of the first woman. No, not Eve, but Lilith? After 150 years Dika Edens, the oldest of four girls each destined to live forever finds out that very thing. She is not sure if it is a curse or a gift from the Gods. All she knows is the man that has informed her of this has way too much guilt on his shoulders regarding her and her past. Chrome is her Guardian, but that does not mean he can protect her from everything. He should be the first one to know that - since he is the one telling her that she must save the world.
My name is Dika, I am an American born Hungarian, Polish, Spanish Gypsy with a little bit of something special, born right here in the green state of Oregon, home of the Beavers. History would be changed in a matter of a few words spoken from the man that has been haunting my dreams.
My sisters and I need to save the world, and if we don't, the Universe will cease to exist as we know it.
My name is Chrome Jai, Dragon Guardian to Dika Edens, created to protect her from the evils of the first human woman mother of mankind. I will protect her as she fights to save the humans, but her first assignment will be to make it through the first 48 hours and find her Aunt and her Grandmother.
We will go together to hell and back just to fix the mess of the Gods and mankind.

First Thoughts (March 2, 2009)
Sweetie has an exercise trampoline that Mr F really likes. He jumps on it for hours at a time. He's watched whole movies while jumping up and down on it.
Last night, I thought to myself: that's not a bad idea. If I'm going to watch TV, I should do that, too. Besides, how hard could it be if a 2 year old does it? So I watched Important Things With Demetri Martin while I jumped on the trampoline. And now this morning I can barely move. It feels like my legs were beaten up by goons.
