Easy Slider Mobile Slot Review: NextGen
Easy Slider is a Motorbike based Mobile Slot that could give you the ride of your life.
Ha! The play on words here made us chuckle (doesn't take much) but it's also named this because one of an excellent bonus feature slider they've added. Easy Slider is a great 5 reel slot that gives you up to 25 paylines. It looks great and has a soundtrack to match the roughness of their characters. With Wilds, Scatters, Free Spins and their bonus feature it's definitely a game to check out.
As we've said this is a theme that is set in the world of the bikers. The symbols shown all live up to the bad ass world they are creating and the design works effortlessly. Turn up the tunes if your wanting to hear a bit of heavy metal music (well, sort of).Play now at BGO & Claim an EXCLUSIVE Bonus
Bonus Features
Wild Symbol- The Wild Symbol is shown by a biker babe with the wind in her hair. She will cover all symbols for you apart from the scatter helping you get those winning combinations.
Scatter Symbol- This Scatter is literally on fire, burn rubber baby. Get at least three on the reels and see 15 free spins speeding towards you. These spins can be re-triggered.
Slide A Wild- This original feature is cool. At the top of your game you'll see a motorbike (of course on fire, everything in this game is on fire) you can slide him to the top of whatever reel you decide. Different reels will give you different multipliers and enhance your wilds (stacked wilds). Starting at 2x up to 6x. Just go straight for the 6x right? You can do. However the higher the multiplier the harder it is to get those scatters.
Easy Slider Mobile Slot Verdict
We're used to NextGen producing top notch mobile slots and Easy Slider is no exception. It's a really well thought out game and the features really give it some life. New and original bonus features are always welcomed and this slider is a great one and definitely had us playing for longer.

in the past I used to wear a lot of baggy clothes, but nowadays I'm starting to like wearing more tighter fitting shirts, and smaller shorts that meet my knees or go past them by an inch. is that sexy at all to you girls or does it look too metro?
Most Helpful Girl
Assuming you're a size small wearing a size small (rather than say, a size M or L wearing a size small that is way too tight for you), then yeah, it looks fine.
My partner is a size small. He wears fitted clothes (not tight, but not loose/baggy either). I prefer it over guys who wear clothing that are too big for them.00|00|0

The uncomfortable feeling of dry, tight or chapped skin makes you reach for a bottle of body lotion. By starting each day or ending each evening with a full-body treatment, you can provide your skin with moisturize that can last for hours. Target specific skin woes by treating dry patches and sensitive areas while ensuring that your skin receives a comprehensive drink of moisture.
Step 1
Pick a formula suited to your skin type and the degree of moisturizing you're trying to achieve. Lightweight, greaseless lotions absorb quickly yet may not moisturize intensely. Thick body creams may take longer to rub into the skin, but provide deeper moisture -- especially on areas such as elbows, knees and heels.
Step 2
Moisturize well after showering. Reach for a bottle of hand lotion throughout the day for touch-ups in dry weather, but start from a moisture-friendly foundation by applying lotion on your body just after you've stepped out of the shower and toweled off. Slightly damp skin absorbs lotion more readily.
Step 3
Start with a coin-sized dollop of lotion in your palm and evenly distribute it on one part of your body, starting from the bottom up. Repeat as you work by section, hitting legs, torso and arms. Don't forget to rub lotion into your feet and hands, and pay special attention to particularly dry areas. Don't saturate your body in lotion, but start with small dollops and increase the amount as needed.
Step 4
Change products as needed as you moisturize. For example, apply a special heel balm to take care of cracked, dry skin, or use body butter on your knees and elbows. Layer more targeted, intense products on top of the general core layer of lotion you use on your entire body.
Step 5
Switch to a different moisturizer when you get to your face. The ingredients in body lotion aren't geared toward the specific concerns of facial skin, including breakouts, wrinkles, sensitive skin around the eyes and sun damage. Both men and women can find facial moisturizers to address these needs, including formulas that have added SPF protection to shield your face from harmful rays.

Why is it important to study the visual arts? And what is the
role of the visual arts in relation to Global Citizen 2000?
Art is a powerful tool of communication. The use of visual symbols
constitutes one of the first known forms of human expression
and communication, which has continued throughout history. All
of us, including our children, understand and respond to this
non-verbal form of communication. Different cultures share commonalities.
One common link is that all societies have created art, revealing
the common interest in issues such as survival, reproduction
and death. Thus there is a universality inherent in art. However,
different cultures from different historical epochs have handed
down varying cultural legacies. Despite their commonalities,
all cultures are characterized by their uniqueness, too.
The increasing interdependence of the contemporary world creates
a need for a greater awareness and understanding of cultural
diversity. Arts education provides the student with such cultural
insights into other societies, promoting a trans-cultural awareness
and providing a much-needed unifying force in today's global
society. When students have the opportunity to study and gain
insights into foreign cultures, they learn how people define
themselves and what they value. Often, students become cognizant
of demeaning ethnic or racial stereotypes, resulting in a more
positive sense of ethnicity and community. Thus they develop
a greater appreciation of and ability to work with people from
different cultures. This international dialogue, our most universal
language, promotes positive transcultural relationships. These
relationships work to foster mutual respect among differing
cultures and value-systems.
In addition to exploring works of art from other cultures, students
will engage in the production of art. This highly personal experience
results in a tangible product of that knowledge. Creating art
enables students to intellectually understand and emotionally
experience the spirit of a given culture through the student's
personal experience, they learn first hand how people other
than themselves define themselves and what they value.
Finally, it is imperative that today's educators become more
aware of the interdisciplinary role of the visual arts. The
arts are a creative and concrete manifestation of a given society's
needs. They are directly related to socioeconomic, political
and/or social dimensions of human existence. These different
dimensions of any society cannot be separated. Thus they should
be taught to students as related fields of inquiry. Moreover,
in light of recent research, which suggests multiple intelligences,
the use of visual imagery in the educational system is highly
beneficial, regardless of the particular discipline in which
it is applied. To promote education in the visual arts furthers
students' ability to learn while it simultaneously fosters a
greater understanding of a given culture. It demonstrates how
we all share a common humanity. This knowledge also reveals
what is unique and special about another culture, thereby dispelling
negative stereotypes. In sum, the study of the visual arts creates
a more informed, insightful and responsible global citizen.

Indonesia has reacted with anger and frustration at Tony Abbott's refusal to apologise for or comment further on the phone-tapping revelations at the centre of a diplomatic crisis between the two nations.
Jakarta said it was still waiting on a formal response from Australia.
Speaking to Guardian Australia and the ABC at the presidential palace, President Yudhoyono's foreign affairs spokesman, Teuku Faizasyah, described the Australian prime minister's decision to neither confirm nor deny the revelations as "not advisable".
He said: "At the moment, what we are requesting is very clear. The earlier the clarification that we receive, that will clear the air. It's not advisable to maintain the status quo of not confirm[ing] nor deny[ing] if there is any tapping incident in the past.
"At stake is the strategic relations that we've already established," he said.
On Tuesday, Abbott refused to apologise to the Indonesian president during a parliamentary address over allegations that Australian surveillance targeted Yudhoyono, his wife and his inner circle.
"Every government knows that every other government gathers information," Abbott said. "Australia should not be expected to apologise for the steps we take to protect our country now or in the past."
He added: "Australia shouldn't be expected to detail what we do to protect our country any more than other governments should be expected to detail what they do to protect theirs. Others should ask of us no more than what they are prepared to do themselves."
Faizasyah said that "many" strategic relations were at stake, following on from foreign minister Dr Marty Natalegawa's warning on Monday that people-smuggling information-sharing deals were among those being considered for review.
The spokesman continued: "This is a very serious matter. We are talking about trust and confidence … we cannot build trust when we know we have kind of suspicions that our discussions – our internal, closed discussions – are being listened [to] by others, of which the substance can be used later on, during a negotiation on some other substantive issues."
Natalegawa, also present at the palace, reiterated the anger he expressed at a press conference at the foreign ministry on Monday.
"It [wiretapping] is something that is not common and illegal, it violates human rights. It violates individual's rights to privacy and it certainly violates, hurts [and] damages the bilateral relationship between Indonesia and Australia.
"There's only one party responsible here: Australia," Natalegawa said.
On Tuesday, Yudhoyono issued his first public statement on the revelations. He sent a series of tweets accusing Abbott of "belittling" the attempts to tap his phone.
"I regret the Australian PM statement belittling the phone-tapping in Indonesia without feeling guilty. We are reviewing a number of co-operation agendas because of the damaging Australian behaviour … The action by the US and Australia is damaging the strategic partnership with Indonesia, a democratic nation," he tweeted.
Indonesia recalled its ambassador to Australia, Nadjib Riphat Kesoema, on Monday, with Kesoema returning to Jakarta on Tuesday. Faizasyah said an envoy in Canberra was keeping Jakarta updated on the situation.
"We will discuss what other measures we will take," he said.
On Monday, Guardian Australia and the ABC revealed that Australian spy agencies had attempted to tap the personal mobile phone of the Indonesian president and had targeted nine of his inner circle, including his wife.
The diplomatic crisis has sent shockwaves around the country and dominated Indonesian newspapers on Tuesday as well as television news reports throughout the day.
The Jakarta-based Media Indonesia stoked nationalist flames, in a country where both parliamentary and presidential elections will take place next year, publishing an editorial under the headline "Not an inferior country".
"Indonesia should be firm toward the kangaroo country that has betrayed a good relationship. A great country must not feel inferior when its integrity is stepped on by another country which regards itself more superior," it said.
Rakyat Merdeka, another influential title, ran a headline describing Australia as a "dangerous neighbour".
On the streets of Jakarta many voiced concern over the revelations. At the street food restaurants lining Sabang Street in central Jakarta, Herianto Iskandar, 34, said: "As a citizen I am angry … I think Australia didn't appreciate us as a neighbour and the Indonesian government should take [a] stronger step again."
Muhammad Zuhri, 28, said the incident had "triggered our nationalism".

chris and i went to disneyland on friday. it was mostly spur of the moment cuz jesi wanted us (chris) to go. i dont feel wanted at all when im around jesi its bullshit. when chris and i went to jesi's birthday on thursday she thanked me for bringing chris and then kept thanking me as if i was my own boyfriend shauffer. it did piss me off a whole lot. i even told chris on the way home, he understood but there really isnt anything we could do. if he talks to jesi she would stop for a breif period of time and restart the process.
we had an amazing time together tho. we got there around 1 and everyone else got there at 6. we hung out with shelby and jon most of the time.thier fun to hang out with. chris and i then left early. i had to go take pictures for seen. i was ssoooooo tired. the whole weekend was studying and seeing chris.
finals are on wednesday. im stressed i dont know if i will even pass my stupid music class. the guy wont even let you write a paper if he doesnt like it. its dumb and i refuse to rewrite my other one. im trying to write more tho for my sitar one with emotion in it.:p gaaaaaaaaay
Chris is moving into his new place with corrie and diz. Dash moved to another house hes living by himself now. he got off of his ass once they mentioned they were moving and he found a place within two to three weeks. lol thier moving into spencer and hunters place which is two blocks away. its funny but the place is soooo much better than this house, way more spacious and chris actually gets a room!!! so stoked. we can now have sex whenever we want lol.

whatever post you read below is the same as im posting now. it was kind of my fault not telling chris i was going to work out after him but when i said it he got all grumpy and quiet. it was retarded. and when i was about to leave he still got pissed. i was all meloncholy about it cuz it didnt really bug me, i though it was actually funny. until i stayed cuz if i left his shit would of gotten worse. but not im mre pissed then ever. well not really i could be more pissed than i am but whatever.
when we came back from frys he started to work on one of his computers that he has been working on. i mentioned the fact that he was upset and he rather play with him computer than cuddle cuz that was the complete opposite of what he wanted to do. of course he said he was pissed. the computer pissed him off more. and i was on the other computer searching the internet not even phased. i even apologized to him and he still was pissed. he went to lay on the bed and tony texted me saying he was on his way. chris got way more grumpy so idecided to lay next to him before i left. i then decided to not go and make chris feel better. we ende up talking about the usual stuff. nothing helped. i was there for an hour and a half and i was the one who ended up being more pissed. it was dumb.

Chris and i had a fight last night involving tony, once again. i dont know what to do about it, neither does he. he did tell me about how he felt and what i think it is that he is stressed about god knows what cuz he has to find a place and he isnt in his own mind etc. that sounds understandable to me but he really needs to stop. i hope it changes when he finally moves out of the couch. he has been dreaming of me cheating on him too, same story. but we made up, i dunno if were gonna talk more about it when i see him today but we will see.

Chris and i went to the encinitas street fair. it was pretty cool, we went to the mushroom caves after it was pretty awesome.
So i think im doing better with this whole not eating junk food thing. im eating less, but eating more throught the day at the same time. but its still not alot of food. chris def helps me alot in it. only thing that sucks is when i go to work and they have a terrible amount of junk food there and its the junk food i like. its been a breeze but whenever i go to work i crash and eat the food. Im hoping that i give myself enough strength to not eat whatever is there, it worked last time but i ended up staying longer and ate two pizzas cuz joe didnt eat his. as long as i have gum on me it works, trident is awesome.

chris is getting more comfortable with me everyday, its the little things. like the other day when i was putting eyeliner on and he wanted a shower and got naked right in front of me and got in. i thought it was funny and he would never usually do that. i forgot what the other one was but still, were getting closer and i like it. but thinking about saying i love you scares me now, i want to say it but at the same time im not ready. were so damn comfortable around each other that we know what the other means and when we say something and they understand in a way. im so happy with him.

chris and i obviously made up from the last post. we did talk about it a teeny tiny bit but he apologized.
today was alright, spent 7 hours at work and made bank doing nothing. i think chris was upset that i had to work and not see him? texts are weird, so i dunno if it was an angry text or not. but i texted him throughout the day but he never texted back. after work i decided to go over there and surprise him even tho i texted saying i was comming over with the impression of him sleeping. sure enough i go in the door and hes sleeping ^.^ it was waaay adorable. Diz was confused as to why i came over lol but he figured i came to see chris. i cuddled with his sleepy body, i kissed, i put my hands through his hair, and scratched his back. *sigh* hes so cute. obviously he felt it while sleeping cuz he made cute noises, and ended up cuddling with me. he didnt even wake up, hes going to be so upset tomorrow when he figures out that he didnt wake up to see me but oh well.

im still all weird about the text fight chris and i had. he was with a bunch of friends and i was with tony, i hate texting while fighting but we did it anyway. he was hanging out with diz and company at some pizza and beer place, so i told him i was going to the movies with tony. long sotry short he got pissed cuz i was going to the damn movies with tony. I even told him i get upset cuz he never invites me out when him and everyone else goes out. and of course his response is him not wanting to pry me away but he is doing the exact opposite. its just so frustrating. he thinks im going to cheat on him with tony, have sex or do whatever. he doesnt understand that tony and i dont like each other that way anymore. and then of course he says he feels retarded and how he feels he doesnt have all of me and he hates thinking that way. its stupid, that shouldnt be an excuse. whenever he does that the fight is usually over, i didnt apologize to him and neither did he. im sure there will be more tmrw cuz i want to solve this. theres no reason for him to be jealous over tony, i havent had him hang out with my friends cuz frankly i dont even think he can fucking handle it. i hang out with guys, i dont like hanging out with girls. he knows that but he cant take it in his brain. the way he feels about tony is basically the same way i feel about jesi. but whatever. im done talking about this. i want to sleep and hopefully get this over with tmrw
Kickass is a pretty decent movie.

Spring Fever here must be tempered. When you watch the big weather map on TWC, they show weather patterns that reflect the edge of the jet stream, which is often the curved line where temps north are a bunch colder than temps to the south. Invariably that curved line is just a little north of us. Cool, always warm, right?!? NO. What it really means is a lot of wind, especially when we are on the LOW side of the atmospheric pressure.
Spring for us is a gardener's nightmare. The humidity drops, sometimes to single digits, then in mid-March, the winds start. Usually they stop by the beginning of May. Anything planted before the winds stop must be protected. May as well not bother even then, because three weeks later, the temps hit 100 degrees and stay there until July. There are some vegetables that love that -- cucumbers, summer squashes, string beans, maybe corn.
Those of us who have lived and gardened here for a while have learned to delay gratification and do most of our planting in July or August, after the summer rains begin (monsoon). Findings from some U of A studies on the health of perennials related to time of planting indicated that a plant dug-in in March never quite catches up to one planted in late January or late July of the same year. The stresses of the desiccating winds and excessive heat as they try to put in their first roots is just too much for many plants.
So I buy my seeds, prep my starter and know that I can put out about 6 plants until July, all of which must be babied. Then we wait and hope for the summer rain and our gardening fun can begin in earnest!

Mount Gambier prison expansion due to state prison population rise
A further expansion at Mount Gambier prison is partly due to the state's prisons being overcrowded, the state corrections minister has told ABC South East SA.
- Print page
- Email this
- Permalink
Civil works on the $25.4 million project, which was approved by the Department of Corrections in March, will commence early next week.
It is the second expansion for the prison in just under two years.
An additional 84 inmates will be housed at the Moorak facility after building is complete in mid-2015.
The current population of Mount Gambier Prison stands at 302, just seven prisoners short of its maximum capacity.
An investigation by the ABC in February this year showed prisoner numbers at South Australia's nine jails now exceed the Correctional Services Department's approved capacity.
State Minister for Corrections, Tony Piccolo told ABC South East news journalist Elise Fantin the State Government is looking at ways to address prison numbers.
"We acknowledge there is a problem with capacity in our system right across the state so part of the response is to build some new facilities and additional capacity and this is part of that answer."
After the expansion is complete, the privately-owned Mount Gambier prison will be the second largest regional facility in the state, behind Port Augusta prison which can accommodate nearly 500 prisoners.
Mount Gambier prison is known for its high population of sex offenders, but Minister Piccolo said the new low-to medium security units were not designed to house prisoners convicted of such crimes.
"They will be people who are low risk, and generally speaking, not sex offenders, no."
He said the facility would house prisoners who were likely to be released into the community at some point.
In recent years, community concerns have been raised over a larger prisoner base at the facility.
Mount Gambier Mayor, Steve Perryman said there were potential downsides to a bigger prison population, and it was up to the government and the department to put mechanisms in place that address those concerns.
Mr Perryman declined an invitation to attend the official opening of the previous expansion.
"I think it's important to be clinical about an assessment about this type of development," he said.
"Certainly there are positive benefits to the community such as employment, building and supplies, but there's certainly the potential to have negative impact.
"What I think the community would always expect and demand of the corrections services, is that we would be guaranteed there would be no releases of inmates back into our community at a local level, and that all of these occur through a metropolitan based facility."
Mr Perryman said he had fielded concerns from a number of people on that basis.
The main feedback I get is that if people are being released from Mount Gambier, then their family members and associates may relocate to Mount Gambier and that is viewed as undesirable," he said.
Mr Perryman said he has been assured by the Department of Correctional Services that this did not occur and that all releases were completed from Adelaide.
He said it needed to be noted that these prisoners had served their sentences and received punishment for their crimes.
"But it also needs to be noted that communities do not desire for there to be an increased number of people who hold convictions for criminal offences, some of which are sexual or violent, to be relocating in Mount Gambier because they have spent time in prison here and have been let out of the prison system via here.
"Those are valid concerns."
Minister Piccolo said he understood community concerns regarding higher prison populations.
"People are placed where is best for the system to keep the community safe.
"It's certainly a challenge.
"We have a taskforce that looks at demand and management, to better manage people we have in the system.
"This is just part of a broader approach to making sure we have the appropriate capacity and we can meet our legal requirement set by the courts so if somebody needs to be put behind bars, we can manage them."
Adelaide based construction firm Mossop Construction was awarded the building tender for the expansion in April.
A Department of Corrections spokesperson said the company had already placed advertisements seeking interest from local sub-contractors for tendering on various works.

Hi all,
I need do post of a form in my page to Iframe in the same page.
I set target in form tag.
<body onload="document.formuno.submit()"> <form name="formuno" method="post" action="http:\\externalCompany.WebForm.aspx" target="framename" > <input type="hidden" name="prueba" value="pruebatxt" runat="server">
<input type="hidden" name="prueba2" value="pruebatxt" runat="server">

I want to make public one small project on CodePlex. Everybody knows that you can work with CodePlex like with TFS client and with SVN client as well. But really I can't work with it from SVN client. When I tried to add some binary file (it was dll) I got the error "Server sent unexpected return value (200 OK) in response to PUT request for .". How to solve this problem I don't know, I found thread at CodePlex's discussions Can't commit binary files using TortoiseSVN, but last message was at past year. Ok, I'm working with TFS at work, so for me it will be not a problem connect to CodePlex with TFS. But there are some distressing case, Visual Studio always ask credentials at every new connection to project. And I didn't find a checkbox "Save credentials". But I found the method. Read more...
I know that for security reasons, it's generally frowned upon to try and maintain a password field on a postback, but I'd still like to figure out a way to have it done. For example, Twitter. If you try to start a new account, and let's say the username you've chosen has already been taken, the page posts back with an error. But, with Twitter, the password field does not clear. How are they doing this?I find it annoying in a situation like this, because if the username is already taken, that means you have to go back and fill in the password field too.How does Twitter do this?...
I want to create a custom content type (a feature) and includes a field that will be always displayed to user but always in ReadOnly mode.
I'm creating items from a worklfow and what to unable user to modify some values....
I'd make some reasearch and found the "ReadOnlyEnforced " attribute.
This is the attribute definition: Optional Boolean
. TRUE to specify that the user cannot change the field by any means and that it can only be changed by the system.
This is what I do and redo again to be sure... but it's not working! I'm starting to be a little bit discourage about that, because I can't allow user to change value of this fields...
It's a little bit frustrating, because the definition gave in documentation is right what I need lol But it's not working...
Anyone had this kind of problem? Any solution?
I want to compare start date and end date when start date is changed. If start date is big, on change event i need to make the end date the same as start date.
So I wrote On change event for start date. But it doesnot work
getField('input','Start Time').onchange = function() {showEndDate()};
function showEndDate()
var date1 = getField('input','Start Time');
var date2 = getField('input','End Time');
Thanks to mitja.GTI.
My sorting is working ...
although i had to take the table that has my calculated column and make a view (so i could filter) and then bind the gridview to the view.
My question is as this.
1.) in order to get my calculated field i had to load my data into a table (as suggested)
2.)Add a column to the table and perform calculations
3.)make a dataview from the tables because i could not get the Gridview.datasource= ds.tables("loads").select("Deadhead <= " & sngRadius
4.)the largest of the 3 tables my query is based on contains about 7000 records. The way i have the logic & programming now everytime a new "truck location" is put in the textbox1 and "find loads/button1" is clicked. It calculates the deadhead miles of all 7000 records before filtering. I am filtering based on the deadhead miles.
Does anyone have any recomendation about how to speed this up a bit.
Also in order to get paging to work i had to rebind/filter the data again ... means looping through all 7000 records each time paging is called. This seems terribly ineffecient as i am already forced to use access instead of SQL.

Profile import is working with a small set of users from just one OU. The synchronization connection has a Forest Name of "corp.mycompany.com", just like in our current profile settings in MOSS 07.However, the user profiles created are listed with "corp" as the domain, not "mycompany".E.g. my profile Account NameÃÂ shows "corp\eriehl", but it should be "mycompany\eriehl".How do I updateÃÂ this reserved property to contain the correct value for our domain?
I have a form that is used to add and edit data. Based on a dropdown selection, the form is either prepopulated or left blank so you can add new data.
I have a password field that is set to TextMode="Password" and works fine when adding new data, it displays ***** as you type..
Now if you select from the dropdown and there is already a record on file, it populates the form to allow you to edit the information.. Now i DONT want to display the password in plain text, but i want to populate the field so if they make any changes all field data is kept and table is updated with all of it.
I already debugged the page and my variable is being set with the password, but the textbox doesnt even show the ***** for the password value.
Hey guys,
I am trying to build a report using the date field from CRM and only wanting to return the date I am using this expression "=Fields!new_date.Value.ToShortDateString()" but when there is an empty fiel I get #Error. How do I solve this?
Also is there anyway to return the date field with the actual month showing instead of the numerical value? i.e. instead of 1/31/2010 Have it show January 31, 2010 (Doesn't have to be exactly in that format, but want the name value for the month.)

Everyone wants their relationship to be better; But most people make that a complicated affair. Relationships, however, are pretty simple – especially if you have a system or plan to follow. Here are seven, easy-to-remember things you can do right now, and always, to dramatically and permanently improve your relationship:
1. Love. Open your heart; Listen to it and learn to think with it. Your heart is smarter than your brain!
2. Look. Watch and pay attention to the details of what you see. Be aware of and notice changes and new things.
3. Listen. Pay attention to other people, listen to and respect other sides, perspectives, opinions, etc. Make other people important.
4. Learn. Expand your mind and awareness. Learn and do new and different things. Be dynamic; Stay interested and you'll stay interesting.
5. Let-Go. Learn to release, forgive, and forget the past. Cultivate un-attachment and make the most of the present moment.
6. Live. Do what you do, do what you love, do what interests you, live, and grow; Do life.
7. Laugh. Smile, be happy, have fun, be of good cheer, play and laugh; It will heal you and keep you healthy and happy – and that's what life and relationships are all about.
It may take some practice, and some time to adjust to a new way of being; But, if you want your relationship to improve, you have to think about what you really want and then at least conceptualize simple steps you can take to show the world you really want what you think you want. When you do that, the world will meet you there. Become the change you want in your relationship; These are just a few of the things you can do to improve your relationship and make the most of your experience. Be creative and you can probably come up with something new to add to your relationship almost every day. You, and your partner, will be glad you did.

text: I am looking to buy a travel trailer...New preferred, used acceptable . Basically I have no need for bunks... But because I plan on bringing my two friendly like pooches I need room. One pooch is only about 65 lbs where the other is closer to 170 lbs. So basically they need a lot of room to move around. The trailer must be no more than 27 feet, ball to bumper. (I have driveway entrance restrictions) I have no desire for tent bedding areas... I prefer hard slides if the bed slides out. I want for sure the trailer to have at least the one side slide, whether it be sofa , dinette, or both a sofa and dinette slide. Is this so hard to find...? I have only found a few to choose from but I am sure there are more. I am in the Union County NJ area... would be willing to drive about 150 miles to get the right trailer.Please advise. Thanks... Oh and by the way, I do not like corrugated metal for the trailer. I prefer a solid fiberglass shell. Thanks

Ellison James crafts stories of fantasy, urban fantasy, erotica, and everything in between. Born in the Northwestern part of the United States, now living in the Southeast, Ellison James uses a lifetime of living throughout the world as backdrops for stories that usually start in the real world, and then make a quick departure into believable worlds of the fantastic.
"I like to play with perceptions, stretch the boundaries of believability by making Monsters, Demons, Elfs and Faeries seem like normal everyday folks that just happen to do extraordinary things."
The work of Ellison James is often erotic but never smutty, depicting this facet of life like it really is, and from all points of view.

A pair of pupils at a Colwyn Bay school achieved success on a prestigious summer science project.
Shaswath Ganapathi and Alexander Bytheway, upper sixth students at Rydal Penrhos School, beat out 300 applicants to take part in the four-week Nuffield Placement Scheme at Bangor University, which was set up to allow students from across the country to participate in research projects.
The duo successfully completed the project and travelled down to Cardiff on Monday, September 28 for a special presentation event, where they displayed their findings and received their certificates.
Head boy Shaswath, said: "It was a fantastic experience and it was great to learn about research methods and test my knowledge in a real-life research environment.
"This is definitely something I would recommend and it has been a valuable learning method for me that I will take on into further education and my working life."
Shaswath was based in the photonics department working on a device that measures angular motions of hand movements.
Much of his worked focussed on soldering together circuits in order to produce a prototype that can be trialled, with a view to it being used in the medical field.
Alex worked in the Chemistry department and his task was to obtain pure alkaloids from plant of the genus Narcissus with a view to them being used as new antimalarial drugs.
During his research Alex managed to obtain a sample of a substance called haemathamine, which was then sent for further pharmaceutical testing at the University of Nottingham.
At the presentation event the pupils also got the chance to meet the Nobel Laureate Professor Sir Martin Evans, who was awarded the Nobel Prize for medicine in 2007.
Alex said: "The research I took part in was a brilliant and they have since informed me that they are going to continue with the project, and are going to keep me in the loop in regards to their outcomes, which is fantastic."

It has been a source of constant consternation for me, since moving to the States, that every third person I meet assumes I'm an Australian. I'm fairly sure that my Dorset twang sounds nothing at all like the laid back drawl of your average Outback dweller and, ironically, I can't imitate an Oz accent to save my life.
It really does happen all the time. A lovely tourist couple from Texas visited our art gallery not long ago and excitedly demanded to know which Australian city I hailed from. They were interested mostly because they spent 12 years living over there – even to people well used to the accent, mine apparently cannot be differentiated.
It's not that I have anything against Australia – I would, in fact, dearly love to explore its oversized wonders, were I not petrified of giant spiders. It's just that I spent 30 years cultivating this particular way of speaking, only for people to repeatedly question how successful I've been.
Unfortunately, I recently lost the right to complain about it. I met a lovely lady by the name of Elizabeth at a meeting of the local school board, which I was covering for the newspaper. She was helpful, courteous and friendly and I enjoyed talking to her very much, all the while marvelling that there was an Australian residing in the next town, adding to my observations of small-town Wyoming as so much more culturally diverse than I thought.
You can guess where this is going, can't you? Yep, she was from Sevenoaks. Which is nowhere near Brisbane at all, but surprisingly close to London, England. It would seem that we British ex-pats slowly lose our accents, apparently by way of Sydney Harbour.
I'll just go fetch my cork hat and a tinny, shall I?

Lamborghini has officially announced their Forged-Composite material via a video which teases the new revolutionary marble-looking material.
Check this out: The 621-hp Mercedes-Maybach G650 Landaulet
The company has been planning this introduction for a while now, since they have been working with the material and plan on putting it into production with the upcoming Lamborghini Huracan Performante.
Some of you might not know this, but the Forged-Composite material has already been used in the Lamborghini Sesto Elemento – It's unmistakable appearance and beauty make it hard to resist.
That's not all; besides being a beautiful thing to look at – Forged-Composite is lighter than traditional carbon fiber, offers more strength and overall faster production times.
To achieve this, Forged-Composite materials have no weaving as you would see in carbon fiber materials. Instead, they use loose fibers that are then mixed with resin and sandwiched into a heated press under high pressure. The process is very similar to carbon fiber production, but it doesn't require the intricate weaving process.
This also means the new material is capable of creating complex geometrie shapes like; compound curvatures, holes and thickness transitions. Expect to see forged-composite materials in the new Huracan Performante once it makes its official debut.

Anyone can be successful with the Keto Diet. Even those people who give you the side eye and say "I could never live without bread/potatoes/pasta, etc." when they learn about the Keto way of eating. Anyone can successfully become Keto adapted and discover the many benefits of living on fat. However, nature has put one huge obstacle in our way…the dreaded Keto Flu. It's different for everyone. There are varying symptoms and varying degrees of severity, dependent on your body's reaction to carbs, your previous diet, etc. Today, we'll discuss what the Keto Flu actually is, what causes it, some common symptoms associated with it and some things you can do to help ease the symptoms. The most important thing to know about the Keto Flu, is that it passes. And when it does, your body becomes an amazing fat burning machine and you begin to reap all the amazing benefits of a Ketogenic Diet that everyone talks about!
When you eat what we consider a Modern Diet, your metabolism runs on carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are easily metabolized energy that your body can break down and use pretty readily. What it doesn't use, it stores for future use as fat. However, in today's world, with an abundance of cheap, carb rich food, those fat stores are never needed, so we gain weight. But, for those that choose a low carb or Ketogenic diet, the steady flow of carbohydrates stops abruptly. Your body will use up it's stores of glucose, and when that is gone, your body will begin to use those fat stores for energy. But, switching from sugar burning to fat burning has some unique side effects known as Keto Flu. Hang in there, getting Keto Flu means that your body is switching gears. Its actually a good thing! It may not feel great at the time, but you'll come out on the other side of the Keto Flu as a energy driven, fat burning machine!
A common misconception is that the low energy, headaches and withdrawl type symptoms are just the way life is when you don't eat carbs. Carb eaters will tell you this, time and time again, but it simply isn't true. Keto Flu is a temporary condition that only lasts while your body is switching fuel sources. It is normally short lived, and if you are one of the patient individuals who are able to wait it out, you are wildly rewarded. The benefits of the Ketogenic Diet are abundant. I have more energy now than I had when I was eating a high carbohydrate diet. I'm a runner and have found that my endurance is so much higher on a fat fueled diet than it ever was on carbs! I no longer hit the dreaded "wall" when I run! I have also been rewarded with better sleep, clearer skin, higher mental clarity and so much more. Don't listen to those who are misinformed. Do your own research, talk to people who have been on low carb or ketogenic diets for some time. Those who have been eating this way, for at least several months, will all talk about the abundance of energy that comes with it! If you don't know anyone personally, hit up social media! Our Keto community on Instagram is amazingly supportive. Ask questions, look for advice, most of us are happy to help!
Everyone ends up with different symptoms and different severities of those symptoms. There is no way to tell how the Keto Flu will effect you, until it does. Common symptoms are things like lightheadedness, nausea, extreme fatigue, headache, muscle cramping, cloudy thought processes, and diarrhea. In some extreme cases (most likely due to electrolyte imbalances) it can result in temporary high blood pressure and heart palpatations. I had a history of heart palpatations before starting Keto and they returned with a vengeance during the Keto Flu. But, I am happy to report, that in the seven months that I have been eating Keto, that was the only episode I have had and I used to get them often!
My experience with the Keto Flu was not epic or life changing. I had all of these symptoms off and on over a period of about two weeks. It wasn't like the "real flu" where BAM! your sick. It was gradual, so gradual in fact that I really didn't realize I had been hit by the Keto Flu. I was just chalking these symptoms up to carb withdrawal (which is essentially what is happening). I didn't even realize that at the time, it had a name. It wasn't until it passed and I became Keto adapted that I really realized that I had been hit by the Keto Flu. The biggest things I noticed were low energy, lightheadedness and diarrhea. But not all at the same time and not all at once. They came and went periodically.
The best thing to do for the Keto Flu is just to wait it out. You'll be very tempted to eat some carbs just to ease the suffering. DON'T! Just be patient and symptoms will subside. Beyond that, there are a few things you can do that will help!
- Eat fat. As your switching energy sources, eating enough fat in your diet will help boost your energy a bit.
- Hydrate! Drink your water. Staying hydrated is always a good idea and makes you feel better!
- Vitamins. Take a multivitamin. If you are lacking anything in your diet, taking a multivitamin will help!
- Electrolytes. Find a good electrolyte source. A good source will have Sodium, Chloride, Potassium and Magnesium. They all play important roles in body functions. I won't go into that here, but I will eventually do a detailed post on supplements!
- Take it easy. You can exercise through the Keto Flu if you are dedicated. But don't beat yourself up if you take it easy for a few days. Your body is about to turn into a fat burning machine…so a few days off from the gym isn't gonna hurt!
- Be patient! One of the most important things to remember is that time will pass and the Keto Flu will go away. You may be tempted to stray from your Ketogenic Diet, but don't! It will be get better! I promise!
Just remember that not everyone gets the Keto Flu. Maybe you'll be one of the lucky ones. But if not, keep in mind that there are some things you can do to help lessen the severity of your symptoms.
I remember being pretty miserable for a short time while going through the Keto Flu. Both the Hubby and I were starting Keto together, so just think of all these symptoms x 2! He seemed to have such an easy time with the transition, which frustrated me even more when I felt like crap. I remember standing in the kitchen, screaming into the living room. "This is horrible! Why am I doing this to myself? I'm just gonna go eat a cupcake!!!" I was seriously throwing a tantrum like a 2 year old who was just told they couldn't eat a treat! It seems ridiculous now, but at the time my feelings of angst were totally real. The only other thing I've ever been addicted to was nicotine. I was a smoker for many years and giving up smoking was hard. REALLY HARD. But giving up carbs was worse. Carbs are everywhere! But, the important thing to take away from this story, we made it through the Keto Flu and life got good! REALLY GOOD! We no longer have mood swings caused by low or high blood sugar, our energy is off the charts (the Hubby now gets up at 4:00 am to hit the gym before work!), and it does get easier as time goes by!
Hopefully some of this is helpful and will convince you to keep pushing through the Keto Flu! Look for support and try a few of the things above, but most importantly keep going! You can totally do this!

Where: Oahu, HI • Makapu'u Point Lookout
Notes: Here is one last post from our Hawaii trip this past spring. Makapu'u Point is one of my all-time favorite places. Geographically, it is on the extreme eastern point of the island of Oahu. We have found it a good vantage point to see an occasional fly-by of some of the local seabird species. In the past we have seen Brown-footed Boobies, Great Frigatebirds, Wedge-tailed Shearwater and Red-footed Boobies (SEE: PIC OF THE WEEK 11/16/09). Sometimes the birds pass by very closely. However, despite hearing that this was a good spot for Tropicbirds, we had never seen one. We started our visit at the Sealife Park pier facing Mānana Island and waited a while. But we saw only a few distant birds. After deciding to return to the vehicle, we turned to discover a Frigatebird gliding overhead. It traveled effortlessly, following along the road as they often do. Then it disappeared over the gap where the Kalanianaole Highway turns the corner and heads back towards Sandy Beach. So we decided to spend our last few minutes on Oahu up on the lookout, since the Frigatebird had just headed that way. The lookout is perched at the top of a shear cliff that overlooks Makapu'u Beach, about 300 feet straight up. Within a few minutes a white bird with a black mask darted behind us along the cliff's face. So we turned out attention from the ocean side toward the land. Twice more this elegant seabird passed along the road giving us a chance to admire.

I finally got my act together the other day and gathered up the children and supplies to create this fun, quick and easy personal gift! The kids loved getting their feet tickled with the gooey paint!
|Father's Day Footprint Gift
First, I typed up the footprint poem in the middle of the page to make sure the footprints would fit. I then printed it onto a white piece of 8.5" x 11" cardstock.
I gathered the rest of the supplies: paint (we chose to use their favorite colors; pink & orange), sponge applicators, paper towels, water (to clean off the feet) and a hard surface for them to place their footprints onto the paper. I chose one of their toy bins, as it is just what I had on hand.
Once the footprints were dry, I then put the paper into a playful blue frame; which will match his office colors if he chooses to hang it there.
And there you have it!
Next up is deciding what to get the teachers for their end-of-year gifts!! I'd love to hear your ideas!! I have some ideas on my Pinterest board already, but am looking for more!

PITTSBURGH - Police are searching for the person who held up a sandwich shop on Mount Washington Saturday.
A man entered the Subway on Shiloh Street and displayed a handgun to the clerk, police said. He got away with an unspecified amount of cash from a register.
The clerk told Channel 11 that the suspect first appeared to be a normal customer, grabbing a drink and making small talk before the robbery.
Officials said the man had tattoos on both arms, one of which spanned from elbow to shoulder on his right arm. The man is believed to frequent the 2000 block of Brownsville Road.
Anyone with information is asked to call police.

Here's a silly video of Kate. This knee scooting/bouncing thing is her favorite form of locomotion at the moment. She has taken a few actual steps and she stands around no-handed quite a bit, but she's still more confident walking on her knees! I think it looks a little like we're pioneering our own new style of baby hip hop dancing (Creep? Crab? Cranky? Crumbcruncher?) in our living room/dance club, especially since you can hear me cheering her on in the background. I feel like I should've been saying, "Go Katie, Go Katie, It's your birthday!"
And in Art news, here's a painting that Maggie did over the weekend. She informed us that she painted it for Kate. Charming, don't you think? So full of sisterly love and joy. I'm not sure if Mike was trying to create a logo for Maggie's future work or if he was just trying to cheer the piece up a bit with the blue bits on the side.

What Brings MindsEye's Supporters Together?
If you had to take the interests of MindsEye supporters and put them in one phrase what would it be?
Looking at the 2016 Fr. Wittenbrink, OMI Visionary Award winners, we see a uniting theme: a vision for the St. Louis area that profoundly affects the blind community here. The 2016 Soirée was MindsEye's formal opportunity to honor these individuals and present them with their awards. We would also like to take a moment here to recognize their achievements.
Honorees Jay and Lisa Adams are longtime supporters of MindsEye, and as the years have passed, the two have been involved in different roles. Jay served on the MindsEye Advisory Board for years and on the Soirée Committee as well. In fact, Jay was part of the Committee that created the name "Soirée pour la Vue." Lisa supports MindsEye through her work as publisher of Marketplace Magazine and in the St. Clair County East Rotary Club.
As President of Lighthouse for the Blind – St. Louis, John Thompson's daily activities uphold MindsEye's mission.

Steve Schnelle is a MindsEye listener and active in promoting services for the blind and visually impaired. Many people know him from his work as a rehabilitation teacher at Rehabilitation Services for the Blind. Vision loss can spawn depression and isolation, but Steve fights this by helping people with visual impairments learn to interact with their environment, use assistive technologies, and become more independent.

Register for Courses
Watch our step-by step training video for guidance through the registration process or follow the instructions below.
If you come across any terms you don't understand, check our LORIS glossary for an explanation.
Logging on to LORIS
- Go to the LORIS website.
- Log in using your nine-digit student ID number and a personal identification number (PIN). The first time you use LORIS, your PIN number will be your date of birth in the format MMDDYY. You'll need to change your PIN and add secret questions as soon as you log in.
- If you enter the wrong PIN 3 times, LORIS will lock you out. If this happens, you can request to reset your PIN. You can also reset your PIN before being locked out.
Registering for Courses
Once you've logged in to LORIS, you can use the following process to register for classes:
- Click on "Student Services."
- Click on "Registration."
- Click on "Select Term" and select the term you want to register for.
- Click on "Add/Drop Classes."
- Click on "Class Search" at the bottom of the "Add/Drop Classes" screen.
- On the "Class Search" screen, scroll and select the subject, enter the course number (number only, no letters) and campus to be searched. If you want to see all the courses offered for a subject, you can leave the course number blank.
- When searching for a seminar course, under "Class Search," select arts seminar in the dropdown menu. This will display all seminar courses available.
- On the page that displays the search results, you'll see the class sections matching the search criteria, including information on the time and location of the section, as well as the number of spaces remaining in the section. Lectures are shown with letters, while labs/tutorials are numbers or a combination of both.
- Click on the box in the left margin next to the course section(s) you wish to select and click register.
Important Dates for Fall 2018 Registration
June 11 at 10 a.m.: Registration opens for first-year students.
June 26: Registration opens for senior students. First-year students should register by this date for best course selection.
July 2: Some courses that were previously restricted may now be available for registration, space permitting. Some dates may vary by department.
July 16: Last day to register in at least one course to avoid a late registration fee.
Late July: Entrance scholarships are finalized.
Sept. 3-5: Orientation week begins for first-year students.
Sept. 6: Fall term classes begin.
Important Registration Notes
- Except during system updates, you can add and drop courses 24 hours a day, seven days a week, until the last day to add for the given term.
- Course registration occurs on a "first-come, first-served" basis. Popular courses and course sections at the most popular times fill quickly. You should register as early as possible in order to have the greatest number of sections from which to choose. If a course is full and the department has authorized wait listing to be used, you will be prompted to add yourself to the wait list. Note: not all closed courses have a wait list.
- You must register for both consecutive terms of a two-term course individually. Once you've registered for the course section(s) in one term using the instructions above, you are then required to go into the other term and register for the second half of the two-term course. You must register in the same course section(s) for both terms for all required components (lecture, lab, tutorial, etc.).
- If a class has a required lab and/or tutorial, you must select it at the same time you choose the course. Some courses have a lecture, a lab and a tutorial, so you'll need to select three items.
- Each course section has a unique course record number (CRN) tied to it. To make registration quicker, you can find the CRN when searching for courses in the Dynamic Schedule or in the Visual Schedule Builder. Once you know them, you can simply insert the CRN into the fields in the "Add/Drop Classes" screen in LORIS. If a course requires a lab and/or tutorial, you must include separate CRNs for each component to successfully register.
- If you receive an error stating "Restricted to students who have declared this program of study," but require the course, you may be selecting the wrong section. Check the Dynamic Class Schedule to see section restrictions.

A band formed in Grantham in only 2014 played Leeds and Reading Festivals at the weekend in front of thousands of music fans.
The four members of Mowbeck were invited to play the festivals after they uploaded their music to BBC Introducing, a platform for up and coming bands. As a result they were chosen to play at Leeds last Friday and at Reading on Sunday.
Lead singer and keyboard player Andy Thomas, 22, said the gigs were very 'special' for the band and he hopes it will give Mowbeck a boost for the future.
Andy said: "It went very well. At Leeds we had a lot of friends and family there. We are really happy with how it went.
"We have got videos of the shows so hopefully it will be a foot in the door for us. We hope to play more festivals next year."
Mowbeck took to the stage at 4pm and played a half-hour set. Andy said about a thousand people were watching them at the festivals but many more would have seen them as they passed by towards th main stage.
He said: "We were nervous. Everything went ok at the first show and then we were more confident at Reading."
Also in the band are bassist Phil Clark, from Grantham, drummer Finn McLean, from Bourne, and guitarist Lee Cooper, from Nottingham.
The band was formed at the end of 2014 and played its first gig in May last year. The band hopes further success will allow it to go full-time.
Mowbeck will play their first headline gig at The Social in London on September 14.
For more on the band go to www.facebook.com/mowbeck/ and YouTube.

"A Copy of My Mind"
Jakarta, Indonesia has, by Wikipedia's reckoning, 9,607,787 people, making it one of the world's largest cities.
"The Black Hen"
At one point in Min Bahadur Bham's "The Black Hen," set in a small town in Nepal during that nation's civil war, a small boy bends over, grasping his shins as a punishment from the schoolteacher, next to two boys enduring the same punishment.
At first, "Alone" looks like a case of voyeurism. Then it looks like a thriller, then a home invasion scenario, then supernatural.
NWAW at SIFF
This Thai feature doesn't show us the island until very late in the film. It's not all that big on funerals either. What it does show us, for most of its 1 hour and 44 minutes, is three people arguing which direction to go in their car. One of them is always sure that at least one of the others is wrong — that they missed a turn, took a wrong turn, blew through an intersection, or got spun around in wide, slow-going circles.

Our Staff Scientist, Frank Farach, was even featured in a special APS video blog to discuss our research findings. If you didn't get a chance to visit our poster, be sure to watch the short video below for a brief summary about how integrated data management can save you valuable time.
