These goals go from October 8th, 2012 until October 15th, 2012. (or so)
Now before you do anything on your farm, have a look at the quest guide below. You should take whatever shortcut you can since you only have about a week to do these.
Some tips:
- In addition to the standard Haunted Hollow crops, you should stock up on these bushels:
- Wheat (6 needed for Pumpkin Pie – quest 1)
- Red Tulip (6 needed for Witches Brew – quest 2)
- Sugar Cane (6 needed for Nightshade Sherbet – quest 3) and
- Grapes (3 needed for Crystal Cocktail – quest 6)
- The second expansion, 16×16 is available now for 45,000 coin. I would strongly suggest picking that up.
- The Basilisk you get in quest 1 will need to be harvested 5 times. You can do that in a Monster Lab or Zoo. If you have multiple zoos on a different farm, you can do it there, but be aware that you can't get the Imp back to the Halloween Farm unless you have the Shipping License for Haunted Hollow or you get another one in a mystery zoo baby bundle.
- You will need the Mansion at level 4, but you should be done with that already, or at least close.
Other than that, have a look at the information below and plant ahead accordingly.
If you like this post, PLEASE share it with your friends. It makes me happy. 🙂

At the Edge of Eternity: Mass Graves at Home
At a particular point in my life, I suffered a severe trauma- the only thing I could do was to weep. At my feet my little baby girl, almost a toddler, crawled up to me, patted me and said 'oh, poor, oh, poor.' Her look was so compassionate, so comforting, her concern was real, her attempt to make me feel better was everything her little heart could give. To this day, when I feel too injured by death or loss, if I can't get comfort anywhere else I go back in time to that moment, and let that little peanut do her 'bit.' What a gift to me! I knew at that time that, if she so chose, she would be a HUGE gift to humanity and the woundedness we all share.
I was proud of her. That little bit, that tiny girl, STILL makes me proud.
Yesterday I took that little bitty with me in my heart to the very edge of eternity. We went together to offer to God, to mother earth, to the Eternal-beyond-time a very small box; a box filled with the pieces of the remains of TEN other little ones, in a casket about the size of a computer- the very definition of a 'mass grave'.
It was Eternity, God, who gave me the special gift of my little comforter. It was Eternity, God, who had given me the gift of others who participated in my life, who left their mark on me, who I offered back to Eternity, God, at the end of their life.
Always we return people in much worse shape than when we got them. We give thanks for the life they led, we give thanks for their legacy, we hope that Einstein is right and their soul, their spirit, remains in eternity. They have lived their lives, enhanced and enriched the human experience, and taken all that with them to the other side.
Yesterday we were again offering back individuals that humanity had received as a gift, as the great potential to comfort others, to love, to participate in our human experience, to solve problems, to make use of their special gifts, to be someone's soul mate, to leave a legacy (perhaps) of lives changed and transformed.
This time we offered those gifts back to Eternity having chopped them to pieces and thrown them in a dumpster before they ever took their first breath. Unless someone had dug those body pieces out of the dumpster, they wouldn't have even had the dignity of a human funeral. They were nothing more than trash to their parents, to their doctors, to the janitor.
We returned them to Eternity along with the interior, unheard screams of their agonies as they were slowly, coldly, ruthlessly dismembered.
Standing at that edge of Eternity offering these special and gifted individuals, I experienced a profound SHAME in humankind, the humankind that I love, that I need, that I participate in our destiny together with.
Every human being on the planet has been touched by abortion, the numbers are so vast- 50 MILLION in the United States alone. In London there are 600 per day.
At the edge of Eternity, I offered all those in my own family and friends who have this, and the aborted, in their histories. Whether known or unknown to us, we all have them.
At the edge of Eternity, no matter how beautiful and dignified the burial the truth is that it was still a MASS GRAVE, akin to the mass graves of revolution, genocide, war; but this time its all about our own self-hatred, our own rejection of our humanity, the hardening our hearts to all that is tender, innocent, soft.
Imagine being the God of Eternity and 'receiving back' in this way, what He has given to us in love.
Imagine being the man who stomped his toddler to a horrible death, where the child was no longer even recognizable, meeting his Maker in the midst of that horrible act.
Witness Lisa Mota told the San Francisco Chronicle that Aguilar told people who tried to stop him that the boy was "trash."
We, as a species, are no longer able to love, and we carelessly and brutally murder the only ones among us who haven't yet lost that ability. There is no stretch from the unborn in pieces in the trash to a father intensely stomping to death his own son 'because he's trash.'
At THAT edge of eternity, my own little comforter only increased my shame for all of us, myself included, no matter how earnestly and lovingly she tried her comforting. A dreadful blend of pride and shame. My hope is that instead of trying to comfort me, she is able to go and comfort those who won't make it as far as she did. They need her far more than even I do.
First Black President a Return to Slavery?
Slavery is primarily an economic policy, and the evidently necessary reminder of what slavery was originally about in America.
Among the many hypocrisies of our Rock Star candidate Barak Obama, a return to economic slavery in America is one of the most evident results of his economic policies and his very own submitted budget.
Obama's platform outlines new spending of $287 Billion at a time when our country is so bankrupt we MUST borrow EVERY DAY from our ENEMIES. At a time where the working Americans that remain employed give over 50% of their income to taxes. His platform cannot be supported in any conceivable way other than RAISING taxes and further enslaving ALL Americans to the government bureaucracy.
Recall history, if you know any, Mr. Obama, and remember the suffering that American's ended based upon the Constitution and a willingness to shed the blood and spend the wealth of those who did NOT engage in slavery and opposed it. Remember that it was the Constitution of the United States that provided the VERY BASIS for such an end to a heinous crime against humanity, and ask yourself- what are my policies that will BRING THAT BACK???
A second feature of slavery that exposes Obama's hypocrisy is the Patriot Act. The Patriot Act silences American dissent under the most flimsy of circumstances, allows Americans to be incarcerated and imprisoned without Habeus Corpus or even without contacting family. The government is allowed free reign to 'pressure' and 'torture' American citizens without ANY Constitutional protections as the Constitution itself has been overturned, during Obama's watch, without even so much as a peep of complaint about it, let alone the outspoken voice one would expect.
Recall, Mr. Obama, the lynch mobs and those who would murder slaves, murder protesters all by avoiding the law of the Constitution and the corrupted officials that turned away from the inherent rights of those people. Recall how blacks were SILENCED by government, by the media, by the affluent. Re-examine your own corruption and willingness to sell out the Constitution two years running, and ask yourself, am I willing to take the heat and restore the Constitution to its rightful place? Am I willing to do whatever it takes, for the protection of ALL my American PEOPLE, to UPHOLD THE VOW that my soul will surely be held to before God?
While Obama is personable and very attractive, he simply isn't a man of proper conviction. He has no interest in the Constitution and is perfectly willing to return America to a slave state for no other reason than to be a sugar-daddy for all those who prefer a nanny state to freedom; who prefer to spend other people's money than earn and keep their own.
Recall that we are all created EQUAL, that ALL are entitled to LIFE, LIBERTY and the PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS, and ask yourself why you don't believe that? Why should some be enslaved in order that others can have a better, government provided living? Why should the unborn, who automatically have the right to LIVE be considered less than human as your black ancestors were?
That the Constitution and Bill of Rights PREVAILED with bloodshed and money that was NOT YOUR OWN is the ONLY REASON that your candidacy is possible in the first place. Need you be reminded that there have been NO black Prime Ministers or Presidents in other Western Nations as of yet?
We need Ron Paul who not only understand the critical economic issues of our time, but understands what canceling the Constitution actually means and will bring about for all of us- including the former slaves and oppressed people of our nation's history. They must be spinning in their graves!
It really is way past time that Atlas shrugs…
Blood Lust Has Overtaken the Parties, Except Ron Paul!
The Blood Lust Will Overtake You ALL
In Alabama…
"In 1993 Don claims he saw clouds that formed seven trumpets (three "clear and ready to blow"); in 1994 a veil of darkness that covered half the sky; in 1994 the inspiration to say, "The heat shall be in the blood. It shall come to a boil. People shall become enthralled with its power and thrill. The dullness of their souls shall be shattered and overpowered. It will drive the emotions and provide a life force of its own. It shall wash over all of mankind. Prayer is the only defense to keep from being drawn into the boiling cauldron." Prophecies
In 1994 experiments began on aborted embryos for cloning and genetic research purposes.Also in 1994, almost ONE MILLION people were chopped apart with machetes in Rwanda, though they also for years had had prophetic warnings which were dismissed as ridiculous and ignored.
Mother Theresa had said, "the fruit of abortion is nuclear war."
It can't be any surprise that those of us opposed to the wholesale slaughter of tens of millions of innocent Americans felt that 9/11 was, perhaps, in part, chastisement for so much bloodshed.
What we didn't understand at the time, but is CLEAR NOW, is that this bloodlust would make America abandon our Christian principles ALTOGETHER and be willing to DROP THE FIRST NUCLEAR WEAPONS, unprovoked, against 'enemies' that can't possibly be a danger to us!
Luke 23: 27-30 is a promise or prophecy of Jesus' own:
"there followed him a great multitude of the people, and of women who bewailed and lamented him. But Jesus turning to them said, "Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me but for yourselves and for your children. For behold, the days are coming when they will say, 'Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never gave suck! Then they will begin to say to the mountains, 'Fall on us'; and to the hills, 'cover us.'"
We have the opportunity to vote OUT those who have succumbed to this blood lust, and elect Dr. Ron Paul, who has introduced the Sanctity of Life Act. He has delivered 4,000 babies and cared for as many new mothers!
Yet, our Republican front runner, John McCain has declared that the ILLEGAL and IMMORAL war with Iraq can and should last 100 years- this from a man Pat Buchanan described: "John McCain will make Dick Cheney look like Gandhi."
But you say, "there won't be nuclear war" by the democrats…
Take a look here:
Even the media is keeping the blood lust going, and you're listening! Observe the BLOODLUST yourself! Not enough torture? Not enough war escalation? Too 'soft' on the 'war on terror?'
Will YOU choose the bloodlust for yourself and your country? It is HERE, NOW.
Will you ignore the reality of what we are genuinely facing, because the blood lusting media ridicules the ONLY candidate that wants America to survive? Wants America to THRIVE? Wants to SAVE AMERICA from the monsters that have been running it for at least two decades?
Will you ignore this opportunity to elect Ron Paul, because you would rather believe proven LIARS than what you KNOW to be true?
Reconsider your soul, reconsider life, reconsider whether we want to empower and dive headlong into what the neo-cons, neo-coms, and blood-thirsty military industrial one-worlders want. There are consequences for every decision. There will be irreversible ones for this one we are facing as a nation.
Vote Ron Paul even if you hear he can't win. The fact is, he can't lose or we ALL do. God bless.

The Child Welfare League Foundation has called for stricter laws to prevent the selling of babies, noting that at least 362 children have been sold in the past decade.
Current regulations aren't tough enough, the foundation said last week, adding that most of those convicted for baby-selling received light punishments and retained their medical licenses.
The foundation called for stricter punishments for violators of the Medical Treatment Law (
The foundation analyzed news stories about baby-selling cases from 1996 to this year and found that only 14 major cases had been solved by the police.
The amount of money exchanged in the cases was estimated to total NT$1.3 billion (US$39.4 million), with an average price of NT$360,000 per child, the foundation said at a press conference last week.
Baby boys cost more than baby girls because more people want boys, the foundation said.
Foundation chief executive officer Wang Yu-min (王育敏) said that based on her group's experience, pregnant minors usually give up their babies because of financial difficulties, career hopes or family disapproval.
"These children supply the baby-selling market," she said.
She said many of those involved in the sales were medical professionals because it was easy for them to issue fake birth certificates or guarantee the babies' health to buyers, Wang said.
"This attracts many couples who do not wish to reveal a child's true identity even though they have paid high prices for them. [That is why] the sellers usually revert to their previous employment after leaving prison," she said.
The foundation said 91.9 percent of the cases it reviewed occured in Taipei.
The anonymity and convenience of the Internet might make it a new channel for selling children, the foundation warned.

Earl Howe: I thank the Minister for introducing Amendments Nos. 3 and 10 which seem straightforward and uncontroversial until one thinks about the practical implications. At what point is a hospital to determine whether someone is or is not ordinarily resident in England and Wales? How is a hospital supposed to do that? My understanding is that the definition "ordinarily resident" is not met just by confirming the street address where someone was last living: it is a matter of law. It will be necessary to determine how long a person has been living in this country and whether that period has been continuous. I am sure that the Minister will correct me if I am wrong. However, if that is right, it would be inordinately burdensome for hospitals to determine the information and the process would not be easy if a patient were in a vulnerable condition.
What happens if a Section 2 notice is issued to a local authority which then goes to a lot of trouble on the patient's behalf, only for it to emerge later that the patient is ordinarily resident outside England and Wales? There does not appear to be any provision for the costs of the local authority to be reimbursed in those circumstances. One can imagine that that situation could arise quite often. Will the Minister comment on those issues before we move on to further amendments?
Lord Lucas: For instance, would the Minister's right honourable friend Gordon Brown be considered to be ordinarily resident in Scotland, or not?
Lord Hunt of Kings Heath: I should have thought this a straightforward matter, but your Lordships will always analyse these issues. That is right. Again, I apologise for not giving due warning. As far as I understand the issue, if a patient who was ordinarily resident in Scotland were treated in an English NHS hospital, the Act would not apply. And it would be the same if a patient who was ordinarily resident in England were treated in a Scottish NHS hospitalthe Act would not apply.
The definition of a person "ordinarily resident" takes its normal meaning. It would be a matter for the hospital concerned to determine when a Section 2 notice was being issued.
Earl Howe: I am grateful to the Minister. That situation could give rise to practical difficulties in certain cases. If the Minister is able, perhaps he could consult on this and either write or speak to me.
I turn now to Amendments Nos. 5 and 11. The Minister will be under no illusions of the views held on these Benches about Part 1 of the Bill. We believe that
We knowor we think we dothat the Government's main concern in seeking to impose financial penalties, or the threat of penalties, on local authorities, is to bear down on delayed discharges relating to patients who have received any type of acute care in hospital. Manythough not allsuch patients will be elderly. Above all, they are the groups of patient whose delayed discharges make the greatest impact on a hospital. They are the groups on whom Ministers have particularly focused their remarks when speaking to the Bill's provisionsand understandably so.
The regulations just published in draft form restrict the definition of "acute care" to:
I make a simple point. The larger the group of patients caught by the Bill, the more serious will be the negative effects ensuing from it. I shall not repeat all the objections that I set out at Second Reading, but one of my main worries is the knock-on effect of the financial penalties for other groups of patients. The more local authorities are obliged to prioritise their efforts on to hospital patients of one sort or another, the more they are in danger of disadvantaging elderly people living at home who may be in need of domiciliary care, as well as other individuals in the community. Above all, local authorities will want to ensure that they do not incur fines. Therefore, the efforts of social workers will be disproportionately concentrated on patients blocking beds. The needs of patients who do not give rise to fines will inevitably become secondary. That is my worry.
This distortion of priorities will manifest itself in other ways. I shall read a short section of the Audit Commission report, Fully Equipped 2002. It states:
The argument is taken a stage further: people who need less intensive support at home are increasingly not receiving it because it is becoming more difficult for them to qualify. The result is that such people have
I return to the perverse incentives that are likely to be created. The larger the cohort of individuals directly affected by the Bill, the greater those perverse incentives will be. The example that I gave at Second Reading was that of a GP trying, without success, to find a care-home bed for a patient. The obvious answer is to refer that patient to hospital as an acute case. Hey presto, the problem is solved! At Second Reading, the Minister said that that type of eventuality was never the Government's intention. Of course it was not the Government's intention, but that is precisely the point: the unintended consequences must be confronted and dealt with.
Finally, Amendment No. 11 proposes that the ambit of the Bill should not be extended to include mental health patients. There is a real problem of delayed discharges in the mental health sector. The problem is not something to be welcomed in any way. It is damaging to patients and costly to the NHS. However, assessing whether a psychiatric patient is fit for discharge involves a complex set of considerations; for example, the potential for self-harm and the risk of harm to others. In the opinion of MIND, the charging scheme set out in the Bill carries a serious risk of inappropriate and premature discharges. Local authorities would be forced to take responsibility for patients without the necessary support services being in place. The Government have acknowledged that the key reason for delayed discharges in mental health is a lack of capacity in specialised mental health services in the community.
The way to overcome that, to revert to our earlier debate, is to have a working partnership between health and social services. Many NHS mental health services already operate with a high degree of integration between health and social services, with pooled budgets and joint commissioning arrangements. It makes no sense whatever to disrupt those arrangements, which inevitably the Bill would do if it were extended to this sector. Apart from anything else, if the charging scheme were extended to mental health, managers with pooled budgets would undergo the odd experience of having to fine themselves.
Those are some of the practical reasons why, in my view, we should seek to limit the scope of the Bill as the amendments propose. On a more philosophical level, we need to ask ourselves whether this system of financially driven imperatives is what we want to see pervading the fabric of our public services wherever the NHS and social services interact. I am clear that it should not.
Baroness Barker: I speak to Amendments Nos. 6, 8 and 9, which are grouped with the amendments of the noble Earl, Lord Howe. The Minister's amendments seek to clarify the meaning of "ordinarily resident". Can I take it from what the Minister said that the discharge arrangements will not extend to hospitals abroad to
Like the noble Earl, I, too, wish to comment on the extension of the Bill to mental health. Time and time again it has been said that the Bill reflects a model of care adopted from Sweden, which in itself was a corruption of a model that pre-existed in Denmark. We on these Benches have chastised the Government for what we call "health tourism", and this is one of the first examples of that. If Members of the Committee had gone to Sweden with the architects of the Bill to look at the system there, they would have discovered that in Sweden the system of reimbursements applies only to geriatric care transfers. It has not been deemed appropriate to extend that principle more widely and specifically to mental health.
For once we are in the happy position of having draft regulations when we discuss a Bill. The definition of "acute care" in the regulations is quite helpful, although it does not exclude paediatric care, which I thought it might do.
Under the current draft regulations, local authorities will not be made liable for charges if the patient is awaiting another NHS or community care service, such as psychiatric or mental health after care assessment, but cannot move on because the availability of such NHS services is blocked due to lack of social care provision. However, as the Explanatory Notes to the Bill make clear, it is the intention of Ministers eventually to apply the reimbursement regime to other NHS services, including mental health.
But there is a clear difference. There is no intermediate care in the field of mental health. NHS mental health services now operate in an integrated structure between health and social care, with varying degrees of pooled budgets and legal responsibility. We are getting into a situation where different departments of the NHS will be claiming back money from each other.
Assessment of a psychiatric patient's fitness for discharge and the putting together of an appropriate after care package is perhaps more complex than dealing with many of the physical disabilities of older people. Considerations such as the risk of self-harm, risk to other people and the need for appropriate accommodation have to be taken into account, and I very much doubt whether such arrangements can be put into place within three days. It will be interesting to see how any decisions made under this Bill will fit in with the provisions of the forthcoming mental health Bill.
There is one other key reason why the Bill should not be extended to mental health service users. That is the danger that this legislation will put pressure on local authorities to take discharged patients earlier than they should, without proper accommodation and essential support services in place. There is also a risk that medication will be used to manage symptoms to achieve earlier discharge without proper consideration being given to therapeutic intervention. We have often discussed in the House how mental health becomes an issue only when there is a crisis. I believe that this is the context in which such decisions can lead to severe risk.
As to Amendment No. 8, the issue of self-funders is small and technical but it is one of the most important issues in the Bill. It arises several times in the Bill in relation to eligibility for continuing care and unlawful practices by social services departments to make NHS continuing care cases self-funders, as in the case of Coughlan.
In the Second Reading debate in another place the Secretary of State said:
In the case of those who require care services at home, the guidance goes on to state:
The practice has grown up that where a person has capital of more than �19,000 the local authority does not have a duty to arrange care unless he or she is not able to arrange it for himself or herself and there is no one willing to do so on his or her behalf. In general, this has come to be interpreted as meaning that local authorities retain responsibility where the person lacks capacity to make his or her own arrangements with the care home.
However, a recent case in the House of LordsRobertson v Fifehas thrown considerable doubt on this approach. Although the case referred to Scottish law, it relied heavily on English case law in coming to its conclusion. The judgment stated:
So if, as many community care and public law lawyers agree, this has effect in England and Wales, then social services departments are responsible for arranging the care for many more people than they currently do and they will be brought into the regime of fines. If the costings for the Bill have been done on the basis that there are people outside the system of fines, then they could be severely underestimated.
Even if there is a group of people who are not the responsibility of social services, given the ethos of swift discharge that these fines will foster, hospitals may pressurise self-funders into accepting the first place in which there is a vacancy, whether or not it meets their needs. For example, people could feel impelled to take a place in a care home which is miles away from their family or social contacts, or which may be far more expensive than other homes in the area which do not have vacancies. So self-funders could, yet again, be doubly disadvantaged.
I said earlier that it was useful to have the draft regulations before usand, indeed, it is. It was alarming to have frequently to ask questions about regulations.
There is a blithe assertion that if patients turn down the first care package offered, they will be deemed to have made themselves a self-funder. People in hospital may turn down a care package because they believe that it does not meet their needs. It is not simply a question of choice. There is a small, but significant, group of people who stand at great risk of being disadvantaged under the terms of the Bill as stands. That is the reason for our amendments.
Lord Chan: I support Amendments Nos. 5 and 6, 8 and 9 and 11 in this group. They are in line with experience in our primary care trust on Merseyside. The first priority being laid upon social services is to invest in intermediate care beds. There is no doubt that the extra funding provided by government for the requirements under the Bill will be used in that way. Negotiations are presently taking place regarding the use of beds in acute hospitals for intermediate care, and the money will be invested in that way.
That will produce a problem. The best place for a discharged person, particularly an older person, is his or her home. That is the setting that he or she is used to. However, that would require the co-ordination of several services, including some social services departments, and responsibility for support at home as regards cleaning, meals, etc, and other services in the NHS through the primary care trusts.
Concern is being expressed about the Bill. I received a letter today from an older person who lives in St Helens, on Merseyside, and who is very worried about the effect of the Bill, with its emphasis on delayed discharges. The letter asks:
Finally, there is no doubt that the field of mental health offers an example of good practice. As a result of the very good NSF in mental health, we see the development of an integrated serviceboth NHS and social services. I feel strongly that it should not be included in this consideration.

Coinbase Prime
A professional trading platform for cryptocurrencies
#2 Product of the DayMay 15, 2018
Coinbase Prime is a professional trading platform built specifically for institutional investors, owned and operated by one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges to date.
Around the web
Coinbase Goes After Wall Street With New Tools For InvestorsCoinbase Inc. became the best-known cryptocurrency exchange in the U.S. by bringing Bitcoin to the masses. Now it's looking to crack Wall Street. The San Francisco-based company is developing several tools to lure institutional investors onto its platform.
You need to become a Contributor to join the discussion.
faridchaouki@faridchaouki · Co-Founder @ NoNameYet Studio
Repackaged GDAX?
Shlomo Klahr@_sklahr_
@faridchaouki probably, but GDAX isn't stable enough to rely on for big institutions. DefInItely curious about what other features this offers.
Ryan HooverPro@rrhoover · Founder, Product Hunt
I'm impressed with Coinbase's speed of execution l lately, moving up and across market to capture more of the crypto audience.
Robert Novak@robofnc · Web Developer, working at coxtech.com
@rrhoover What's the difference between this and GDAX? From the website it seems GDAX is targeted for individuals, Coinbase Prime is retargeted for investment groups?
Ron J Williams@ronjdub · Product and Strategy guy
@robofnc seems like this is definitely geared toward institutions. Super smart positioning as Robinhood seeks to be the cross asset class investment dashboard for younger investors and focus on the individual. CB going enterprise and upmarket feels like a way to have even more visibility into market forces AND make a ton of coin (pun fully intended).
Shinji Pons@shinji_pons · Experience Designer at Autodesk
How is this different from GDAX?
tony carreon@tonycarreon
@shinji_pons the logo is different...
Ben Bodien@bbodien · Co-Founder, Positivity Space
@shinji_pons Support that doesn't take two months to reply.
Joe Hobot@joehobot · Devops Guy
@tonycarreon LOL 😂
Sam ElliottHiring@samelliottsam · Building @empowerapp
I'd say this is GDAX's power layered with new custodial products for the larger institutional players that want to enter the market.
This move doesn't surprise, but doesn't fail to impress. Coinbase never stops. As larger firms move into crypto trading (which their current trading platforms don't support) and crypto hedgefunds pop up, both will need a turnkey trading platform for their in-house teams.

OMG! This is so funny!!! I watched a debate between Onision and Joy Sparkle BS. I even created my own video about it. Check it out!
I know I made it funny! LOL! Onision is so much fun to poke at! And look at that stupid-ass war paint on his face! What the wholly fuck is up with that?! Well, almost everyone who has a channel on YouTube knows Onision is a douchebag! I watched the whole debate between him and Joy Sparkle BS. I even watched the whole debate between Onision and Jeff Holiday! Jeff was supposed to be the moderator for the debate, but Onision kept pestering him and pestering him until he finally made him snap and Jeff bit back. He said he finally got a chance to tell Onision how he really felt about him. And in the end, which you will see in this video I made, Onision is so proud of himself, thinking he got the better of Jeff, or as Onision called him "The fake/fraud".
Onision is so annoying! He never uses people's names. It's like he's afraid to say the names of his so-called "haters". Throughout the debate, he never calls Joy Sparkle by her user name, or even by her real name. Though I am not sure he even knows her real name. He never calls people by their names. He just calls them "haters" and "stalkers". Well, heck he's got a lot of those!!! He doesn't even have haters! He has people who call him on his bullshit. He's displayed a lot of bullshit over the years on YouTube. He claims to not even watch videos of his "haters", yet he gripes and complains about the content they put out about him. He says they all lie, then he twists their words and actual meanings around. He made fun of Joy Sparkle having fibromyalgia. He said she has a "mental disorder". Fibromyalgia is NOT a mental disorder!!! He heard Joy say she has trouble remembering things BECAUSE of the fibromyalgia, and he took that to mean she has a mental disorder. He is so STUPID!!!!!! But that's what he does. He takes partial meanings and passes them off as "facts", and twists the meaning in this case.
Well, Onision will never watch Joy Sparkle's videos, nor my videos, because to him, we are "small potatoes". But I do not care if he wants to see my videos or not. I really don't! All I care is that his little fans (I call them Onionfags) watch the video and see what a fake/fraud Onision is! He wrote Joy a fake cease and desist letter, a letter that is only supposed to be written and sent by a lawyer. He took an internet template and filled in blanks. That's all he did. Then he said in this video that the letter was "verified" by a lawyer. That doesn't mean SHIT!!!! The lawyer probably took a look at it and said "Yes, that is what a cease and desist letter is supposed to say" but that does not mean the letter is supposed to be just sent to the person he is addressing. No, the lawyer has to be the one to type it, sign it and send it. And online aliases cannot be used.
For example, the only name people online know me by is Dee TimmyHutchFan, or Dee Dee Rivera is the pen name I use on my stories. But that is not my legal name. So let's say one of the INXS SJWs send me a cease and desist letter using that name. They can't! Because they don't have my full name! It can't be addressed to an online persona. Or even a pen name! It has to be addressed to me personally. And the SJWs don't have a case against me anyways, because I've never even so much as slandered them. Not like they have me! But I'm fine with that. As a public figure now, I've come to expect it. I'm sure the SJWs tell a LOT of lies to get all my former INXS buds on their side. I heard about Tess Obrien telling Love that I make fun of her, which I NEVER did! EVER!!! But what Tess did was slander me to get Love on her side. But again, as a public figure, I've come to actually expect that. Believe me, on a good day, I've had people say MUCH worse about me! LOL! A slow day for me is like this:
Tess Obrien: You're fat!
Me: So what?
Tess Obrien: You're a fat piece of shit! LOL!
Me: So what?
Tess Obrien: You fat, ugly piece of shit! I hate you! You should die for talking shit about Kelly Poulter and Matt Burney!
Me: So, go kiss their asses. Come back when you've got something unique to say. Thank you.
If I was afraid of comments like this, which Onision clearly is, I would not put out videos! But I am not. I always appreciate every comment I get, even hateful ones. And yes, I am considered a public figure now. I've put out over 200 videos on YouTube. And really! I've reached a goal I never thought I would reach! I now have over 400 subscribers! That's pretty good! It's small potatoes, like I said, but it's a goal I never expected to reach! Even though I am not on YouTube for the numbers. I'm there because I love making videos. I have fun doing it. But if there's over 400 people in the world who enjoy the videos I make, that's awesome! I'm glad. But my subscriber count could still get back down to 300 and I'd still be happy.
Now, speaking of small potatoes, I've got to get something off my chest. I remember back last year, before I took TimmyHutchFan off of Facebook, there was an incident between me and Christina, Michael's sister. I say this is small potatoes, because to her I'm probably nothing but a worthless piece of shit. But for peace of mind, I have to say this. Whether she believes me or not. It's been bothering me since I put up my video about Mya and got a response from the breeder.
This was a conversation I had on a friend's wall, someone who was also a friend of Christina's. I don't know if that friend is still a friend or not, or if the SJWs got to her too. Though she did not immediately jump on the anti-TimmyHutchFan bandwagon then. But, like I said, the SJWs are very manipulative. I never thought the woman I spoke of in my last blog post would side with them! I'm still not sure it happened. But at this time, I am not taking any chances. If I'm wrong, she can contact me here and let me know. Anyways! This conversation I had with Christina involved other groups who treat Michael's fans like shit. Christina asked me what groups were like that. I didn't really want to tell her because I really did not want to start anything. But she asked me to tell her. So, I told her. One of the worst offenders I knew of was the MH and His Life Fan Page. Mostly because of Jannah and Jannah's wannabe robot, Maria How.
Well, long story short, I wrote on this blog about that chat. I remember saying something to the effect of "Christina, GOD love her, she made me tell her." Well, I think I hurt Christina's feelings. I hope I didn't. I sure did not mean to! That never even crossed my mind until I said almost the same thing about the woman who bred Mya. When I said "GOD love them", she took it to mean that I was saying she was a "stupid breeder who doesn't know anything". But no, I wasn't saying that. Or that's not how I meant it to sound! I never would have thought about it that way if she hadn't said anything to me. I did apologize for how that sounded though. I told her "That sure is not how I feel about you guys". But it made me think of that chat I had with Christina, which this friend deleted soon after.
I don't think Christina takes me that seriously, and I don't even believe she cares. But, I just want to clear it up that when I said "GOD love her", that I was NOT saying Christina was stupid or anything like that! I'm an old-fashioned southern girl, that's just how I talk. It's an expression I always use. I just had to get this out there. I'm probably small potatoes to her because I was not friends with her brother (not that I wouldn't have been), but I had to say this.

Live life to the fullest."
revised spring 2008 / Tredet
The value of life can be considered through several perspectives such as economic and moral. Life is not only about a human's life, but about plants, animals, but everything that's alive, breathing and growing. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/value_of_ life).
Ethical theorists see the value of life in term of quality, respect and liberty. Aristotle said bout life "the ultimate value of life depends upon awareness and the power of contemplation rather than upon mere survival." In the same way, Montaigne a French philosopher, said:"The value of life is not in the length of days, but in the use we make of them."
In order to increase the value of their own life, people should find a right balance between each value that they care about. For improving the life in general, people should be aware of their surroundings, environment, be informed about wars and keep the desire to change the world. They have to develop such values as compassion, sensitivity which can give to the life the value that it deserves.
The value of life is often neglected when people chose the short pleasure over the perspective of durable happiness by using drugs, drinking or overeating.
Some people value their life to the fullest by eating healthy, working out and not drinking alcohol or doing drugs, in order to prolong their life. Some people are complete drug addicts, alcoholics, fast food addicts, and ruined their life by making these choices.
In this way, they tend to devalue their own life and are not able to respect the life of other people. They should start in respecting themselves in order to care about other lives.
People do not appreciate places and things as much as they should. A person does not feel happy if he does not see as much or feel as much of the beauty that life has to offer.
Without valuing life, a person does not appreciate the little things that people have to offer them. He cannot appreciate aspects of people that mean the most like: their smiles, laughs, sense of humor, love and comfort. At any moment life can be taken from you or the people you surround yourself with, and it is these little things that you remember the most about people and will cherish forever.
Life applies to everyone from the day they are born until the day they die. In order to fulfill life you need to be physically happy, by eating healthy and working out. You also need to be socially happy, by surrounding yourself with good healthy people who make you happy and follow the same life-style as you.
Health can be a good way to enjoy your life better and differently. Without good health people reduce length and quality of life. Valuing life allows people to celebrate the things that fulfill life, such as: weddings, births, vacations, family, love and friendships. People must value strength, not just physically, but mentally, in order to fulfill life. An aspect of strength is discipline, which is another value that has to do with life. A person needs to have a strong discipline in order to stay healthy and make good choices. To live a good life a person needs to fulfill each day with happiness. Knowing that you have fulfilled your life to the fullest, I believe, is the greatest gift you can give yourself.

The persistence of a quotation he insists is an ''urban legend'' is evidently infuriating Howard Dean.
At lunch last week in the Washington bureau of The Times, the reporter Sheryl Gay Stolberg identified herself and started to ask a question. Dr. Dean immediately interrupted: ''I want to quickly jump on you for a sec here,'' he said sharply, and referred to an article she had written based on an interview with Senator John McCain in which yesteryear's maverick took issue with a reported remark of Dr. Dean's.
''I never said that. I never said that,'' the man from Vermont insisted. ''McCain claimed I said that on television. We called the station and said we never said that. This is the problem with LexisNexis. It's great, but it circulates urban legends and creates them and I had never said that. . . .''
What was the ''that''? Dean angrily denied being ''soft on the death of Uday and Qusay. That was something McCain said, and it got quoted in my story and I've been a victim of it ever since. McCain said I said it. We talked and called the station and said we never said any such thing.''
What horrendous McCain smear was quoted in my colleague's story? Here's the passage in The Times, coming after McCain said that Dean's national security positions ''are way out of the mainstream'':
''For instance, Mr. McCain cited Dr. Dean's remark that 'the ends do not justify the means,' in reference to the death of Saddam Hussein's sons. 'I was astounded,' the senator said. 'The ends were to get rid of two murdering rapist thugs and the means was the use of American military intelligence.' ''Continue reading the main story
My trusting heart went out to Dr. Dean, who considers himself the victim of vicious McCain slander.
I recalled an instance of a manufactured quote in the primary campaign of 1968. After Richard Nixon said ''we must end the war and win the peace,'' George Romney asked ''Where is your secret plan?'' and Nixon is misquoted to this day as having claimed ''I have a secret plan to end the war.'' (He never said it; I've won bets on this.)
Before joining Dean in castigating McCain for putting words in his mouth, I went to Google and keyed in ''ends justify the means'' and ''Dean.'' To my astonishment, amid the 368 hits was this Associated Press dispatch by Holly Ramer from Manchester, N.H., dated July 22, 2003:
''Questioned about the deaths of Saddam's sons, Odai and Qusai, in Iraq, Dean dismissed suggestions that it was a victory for the Bush administration. 'It's a victory for the Iraqi people . . . but it doesn't have any effect on whether we should or shouldn't have had a war,' Dean said. 'I think in general the ends do not justify the means.' ''
On the day this A.P. story appeared, McCain was asked on MSNBC for his reaction to Dean's reaction to the killing of Saddam's murderous sons: ''I am astonished. A lot of people have compared me with Governor Dean. I could not disagree with him more to say that the ends don't justify the means. . . . Mr. Dean does the nation a great disservice when he doesn't recognize how wonderful an event this is and how important it is to the morale of the troops.''
Dean spinmeisters will abandon their candidate's untenable ''never said any such thing'' and argue that the words ''in general'' remove the quoted sentence from an answer to the specific question about killing Saddam's sons. They will blow smoke about Dean offering a philosophical observation entirely detached from the rapists who were the subject of the question. Some partisans would buy that.
But it is not Dean's way to explain ''what I meant was . . .'' His eagerness to expunge from the record his snap judgment about the killing of Saddam's sons -- to claim falsely ''I never said any such thing,'' to suggest it is a McCain concoction, an ''urban legend'' -- tells us that he is a man who treats a toothache by biting down on it hard.
By repeatedly denying the words ever came out of his mouth -- thereby imputing inaccuracy to the A.P. reporter and blatant dishonesty to McCain -- he compounds the original blunder that all too tellingly revealed his mindset.
Maybe Dean has a secret plan to end the war.Continue reading the main story

Popular Games Are Inherently Incapable Of Leading — So Why Must They?
Grand Theft Auto V! There. That should guarantee a few more people read on through…
Of course, this week is going to be all about Grand Theft Auto V and after its worldwide release yesterday, together with the review shitstorm that has erupted, there's every likelihood that it's going to be everywhere you go for the foreseeable future. So it's going to be a case of having to deal with it, even when you're sick and tired of talking about it. That time frame is getting shorter and shorter, each big game release.

- Hell Is 30 000 Deathclaws Tearing Through Boston And It's Glorious | 2 months ago
- Sony Santa Monica Is Teasing Something Truly Strange | 2 months ago
Remember BioShock: Infinite?
Anyway, I thought I'd chip in with my own two cents about Grand Theft Auto V, specifically related to those who are criticising the game for not having a female lead. Let me emphasise right now that at the time of typing this, I have not played the game, nor am I aware of exactly how other female characters are portrayed in the game. I'm simply addressing those who are claiming that because of GTA V's popularity with the masses, it should be attempting to lead the charge in doing something different.
That is to say, GTA V should have a female playable character because it'll bring about an industry-wide shift of focus for female characters in games.
But I say thee nay.
If Call of Duty is the current usurper to the gaming throne, then Grand Theft Auto is Aemon Targaryen. Both are insanely popular and both have a lot of pressure to innovate and do things differently because they have enough of an impact on the games industry that if they do something, then others will follow. And each time, they don't.
That's not entirely true. Grand Theft Auto IV tried to do things differently with Niko Belic, the Serbian with all the ludonarrative dissonance of a crazed killer with a conscience. The game took a more serious approach and had a melancholy tone at times, with an ending that very clearly explained life in the best way possible: It doesn't matter what you choose; either way, you're fucked.
Then Ballad of Gay Tony came out and introduced both a Hispanic black playable character, Luis, and a homosexual main character, the titular Gay Tony.
So it's not to say that GTA didn't try before. It certainly did. But are we allowed to put all of this pressure on Rockstar Games because they didn't want to do a thing this time around?
Popular games are popular for a reason. If they changed what they were, then they would not be as popular. Thus, they cannot 'lead the charge' when it comes to doing things differently. If they tried that, then, well, exactly what happened with Grand Theft Auto IV and Saints Row 2 would happen. A game would come along doing what they already did, and gain all the popularity away from the game that was originally popular.
Grand Theft Auto IV was criticised by a lot of people for trying to do things differently. Panned for not being the crazy, ridiculous, balls to the wall sandbox action game that everyone grew up playing. It was a sign that the series had matured, sure enough, and I appreciated it a lot. But it was also a source of much hate aimed at Rockstar Games. So can you honestly expect them to not play it safe?
Pacific Rim was an amazing movie that released a few weeks ago, and you know what? It performed horrendously in terms of sales because people opted to watch Grown Ups 2 instead. Did they watch it because they were unaware of Pacific Rim? Sure. That's likely. Did they watch it in spite of Pacific Rim? Hells to the yes.
Popular games are popular because they appeal to the masses. And Grand Theft Auto V is not about art or an intricate but subtle message. It's about fun factor. The same way Call of Duty is about fun factor. Popcorn games, you might call them.
It's about killing hookers, getting to six stars and seeing how long you can last, and spawning a motherfucking jetpack to fly around the map. (I'll bet half of you pre-ordered it just to input that cheat on day one.)
Are you having fun? Yes? Awesome. Job done.
Not: Are you having fun? Yes? Well imagine how much more fun you could have with a female protagonist, or a commentary on sexism in the gaming industry?
Some games are going to be the same games, always. It's because that's what made them popular and that's why they'll stay popular. Sure, they'll try some new things. Who knows? We might get a transexual playable character in one of the future DLC packs. But should we criticise a popular game for being popular by doing what is popular?
No. We should criticise other developers for trying to be popular too, instead of differentiating their product.
And if you really must have a strong female lead, then go right ahead and pressure Ubisoft to make Beyond Good & Evil 2. Please. I beg you.

text: Too Much Hand Sanitizer Can Skew Alcohol Test It can be absorbed into the body, leading to a false reading By Sarah Whitmire, Newser Staff Posted May 26, 2011 3:23 PM CDT 7 comments Comments Go easy if you've got an alcohol screening, a new study suggests. (Shutterstock) (Newser) – Germophobes take note: If you use a lot of hand sanitizer, you might fail an alcohol screening, reports CBS Los Angeles. People who use sanitizer multiple times times a day can absorb small amounts of alcohol into their bodies, according to a University of Florida study. Those who use sanitizer just a few times a day are safe, but doctors, nurses, and other professionals who are constantly disinfecting might keep in mind the possibility of a false positive, says the lead author.

Neil Dando, from Worthing, West Sussex, suffers from chronic 'loveshyness' – a psychological condition which means he cannot approach a girl without becoming a nervous wreck and suffering extreme anxiety attacks.
He fears his bizarre trauma means he will never be able to develop a serious relationship.
"At work, because it is purely professional, it is fine. It is only when I get attracted to a girl that it really affects me," Mr Dando said.
"There have even been cases when I have pretended to like somebody just to see if I can get over it.
"But the more I talk, the more I start thinking and the same anxiety halts me mid-sentence."
His problem is not a registered condition but was coined by American professor Brian Gilmartin in his 1987 book, 'Shyness and Love: Causes, Consequences and Treatment.'
Mr Dando stumbled across the diagnosis when he was surfing the internet using online messageboards to communicate with other sufferers.
"I picked up a book on the subject which made me realise there were others like me with the same problems," he said.
"I realised I had been foolish spending my life thinking I had just been unlucky and that someone would come along eventually."
Prof Gilmartin claims the condition affects 1.7 million men in the US.
"Shyness inhibits people from assuming a sense of responsibility for their behaviour," he wrote in his book.
"It makes them feel and truly believe they are not in the driver's seat of their own lives and destinies."

Acura TSX Prices Paid and Buying Experience

drew10 Posts: 25Anyone have experience with any of the Acura dealers in the Boston area? Looking to buy '06 TSX w/navi. Thanks.0
julyccc Posts: 9for $28,300 06 with navi
5 % MD tax is 1415
3% VA tax is 845
what other fees did you pay?
600 for title and tag and processing fee seems high0
notjafo Posts: 63My brother just bought a '06 TSX 6MT from Mac Churchill in Fort Worth, TX over the internet. He doesn't post here but he wanted me to pass on that he was very happy with price and dealership as a whole. He just wished they were closer to his house than the 3 hours he drove.0
I deleted my post from yesterday as the dealer had called to tell me he'd made a mistake on my financing deal and I didn't know how things will play out.
Picking up the silver/ebony '06 non-nav tomorrow...paying $26,551 plus tax (negotiated down from internet price quote of $27,051) and they are giving me a trunk tray. Since they had quoted me the honda financing deal that does not apply to the TSX, they are throwing in some free maintenance coupons. How does that sound? They gave little for my trade, but it does have some problems.
Any feedback is appreciated. Crossing my fingers that all goes smoothly tomorrow or I may bail.
Thank you for all your help! Just reading your posts gave me a good idea of pricing. I am paying what I felt was an appropriate price for this car at this time.0
That sounds like a great deal, where and what dealership?

type_s_maniac Posts: 4Just picked up a 06 TSX with Navigation for $29,300 OTD in MD. Purchase price was $27,400 +TTL. How did i do?0
I think you all are getting great buys. In NJ can't get the dealer (Ocean Acura) below $29.5k for 06 TSX manual w/ navigation. Listed at $30.5k includes destination of course.
I have an email into the New Brunswick dealership for quote. I told the Ocean folks thanks but no thanks. Anyone have info on dealing with New Brunswick or Bridgewater Acura dealers? Thanks.0
isam92bv Posts: 1i was just going to drive over to Ocean to see if they would deal on a TSX today. Hopped on this site to gather late minute info and saw your posting.

Good Luck. Let us know how you make out. I'll keep posting on numbers that I get from other dealers and ask you do the same.0
Sounds pretty good. How much over invoice? Just picked up '06 TSX non-navi at invoice ($26,051, incl. delivery fee), plus tax (PA, 6%) and tags ($123) near Philadelphia. State-to-state comparisons are hard; different tax and fee charges. No optional accessories, which some people seem to get "thrown in" making final price paid close to equivalent to invoice.0
hsolly Posts: 1What Philadelphia dealer sold you your TSX at invoice ? I live in the Philly area & hope to buy one soon.0
I got internet pricing through cars.com and did everything by e-mail. Metro Acura gave me an "internet only" price of $26,151. Ardmore Acura beat that by $100, making it the same as invoice. Prices dropped from mid-Nov quotes (before '06 models arrived) and mid-Dec prices (when the '06s were first delivered). I had to take delivery no later than Dec. 31. If people are paying several hundred dollars more for on-site deals, that too sounds really good.0
I bought at DCH Montclair Acura in NJ. I picked the car up yesterday. When I arrived, there was a Glacier Blue with Ebony on the lot. I had thought originally that I might like that color, but there wasn't one on the lot on my first trip over there last week. On that first visit last week, the salesman took us around the lot to show us some colors on other models and pointed to some car way back in the lot that was a "similar" color from last year. He really downplayed the attractiveness of the color and pushed for silver which was my next choice as I was told and knew that the darker colors that I liked would show dirt, scratches, etc. He did offer to find me a car on another of their lots to look at if I wanted to hang out awhile, but I didn't have time. It would seem that they order lots of silvers!
Well, I looked at the silver and the glacier blue when I got there and decided that I really wanted the blue. They gave me no trouble about switching the cars. Apparently the glacier blue had been ordered by someone who wasn't picking up for 2 weeks so I could have it. I'm loving the car and love how the color seems to change in different lighting conditions.
PS..don't let thinking about scarcity of the TSX enter into your bargaining unless you live where there are no other dealers for miles and miles. If it had been all about money and if I'd had more time, I know that I could have paid less.0
That's excellent! Bumming...I lived right near Ardmore for 8 years back in the '90s! With the retail cost of the add-ons, I paid pretty close so that's cool. I'm happy to be fair to a salesperson, especially at this time of year. I only hope that the service I get from now on is excellent. If it is, I'll happily recommend them to friends and family and online, which is invaluable for a dealer with a huge online presence. We all want to know about where to find excellent dealers. The service is the part that is ongoing and more important to me than a couple hundred dollars today.0
gt0279a Posts: 11Paid $28,177 for 06 w/ NAV & protection package +$50 doc fee and $168 tag/title. Ron Tonkin Acura Oregon0
sporks Posts: 1I recently bought an '06 TSX with navi in the color combo I wanted for $27.5k from Acura of Glendale. Salesman was first-class, older gentleman with white hair.
I did not get any free wheel-locks or mud-guards, but I was happy enough with the price that I didn't care. I was OTD for just about 30k (most of this was tax).
I'm thrilled with the car!0
Just placed a deposit on a 2006 TSX, $500 over invoice, I'm happy with the deal. I should pick the car up on Thursday or Friday.

nahtyfox Posts: 1Hey Dave, which dealership did you order your car?0
tosci Posts: 18Did you deal through the internet or in person at the dealership in Glendale? Does your price of $27.5k include the $615 destination charge? I'm looking to by in SoCal and I would be more than willing to drive to Glendale if they were selling the TSX at this price. Thanks.0
Tischer in Laurel, MD. The internet saleman was great and offered me $500 over invoice right off the bat. Rosenthal Acura's internet saleman was too pushy and started off with $1200 over invoice. He quickly matched Tischer but I just didn't want to do business with him. So far Tischer has been great. I'll report back once I actually obtain the car.

Just came back from Rosenthal :P Got a friendly sales person. Nego started high indeed, but tone changed immediately when I mentioned Internet price and had my jacket back on ready to leave. Put a deposit on a 2006 no-nav royal blue automatic for a price of $27,650 OTD, including all-weather mats ($132) and trunk tray ($99). VA tax is 3%, TT is about $85. Working back the numbers makes it about $26,531, or $480 above invoice. Details: ($26,531 + $231) x 1.03 + $85 = $27,650. A fair deal I believe.
Many thanks to all of you for sharing your experiences. You helped me big time negotiating my own deal. Happy new year!0
That's a good deal - was there no doc fee?0
I negotiated the total "Out The Door" price (or "On The Road" as the sales man called it) knowing where my upper bound was ($27,500 without accessories, all else included). We did not discuss the actual breakdown of the final number. The calculation was my own attempt to get to the "Invoice + $xxx" number.
Yeah, I thought it was a fair deal. Good price for me, and some reasonable but limited profit for the dealer. We're both happy.0
i got my car at Open Road of Wayne, NJ
RBP with parchment and navi:
$28,200 plus tax. PA registration of $140. $298 doc fee (profit).
I'm happy.
Warning to All:
If you don't want a screw in your front bumper, make sure you mention this....they mount the front license plate holder with two bolts, which is fine, but then put a screw right into the front bumper. can't see it, but i'm annoyed by this, since i'm PA registration and don't need a front plate!0
pardon me? 06 with navi for 27,400? that's $500 under invoice +dest. you sure you meant with navi?
how did you get that price? that's pretty good. even better then the deal my dealer screwed me over with of 27,500 plus 189 doc fee and TTL.0
What does the paperwork say - there should be a break down of the costs.0
It would sure help if people would break the price down. At least note the state sales tax rate and state registration/tags fees. OTD in Oregon, for example, should be a bargain (no sales tax, modest registration cost) compared to high sales tax states. And options matter.0
gotstarbuck Posts: 6Does anyone know what is the best price to pay for TSX with nav? This is my first time buying a car. I want to know after what amount that I should not buy? Thanks0

This leaves me flabbergasted. BPP's core competencies are in teaching. Its track record shows that it is better than many public universities at delivering professionally-focused programmes in a professional way. But what background does it have in estates, procurement, IT and facilities management? They don't even have a campus of their own. Their existing business model relies on a distributed set of small, city-centre training venues (not that I'm knocking that, it seems like a really powerful business model, I just don't see how it demonstrates the core competencies to run a leafy suburban university campus).
I can't see anything specific on the BPP site, so maybe this is just loose talk. On the other hand there's a temptation to put this together with what Jon Baldwin has been saying and make conclusions, and I can't wholly resist that temptation.

According to some studies, around 15 percent of Americans avoid seeing dentists because of fear. The feeling of anxiety is most prevalent among older people. This may be because dental practices and procedures in the past were not as sophisticated as they are now. It also explains why younger people have fewer dental anxieties. Dentists in Myrtle Beach SC—such as the dentists in The Carolina Dental Center—can assuage their patient's discomfort. Moreover, they always communicate with their patients and guide them through all aspects of the various dental procedures.
Some people would rather endure toothaches and the resulting excruciating pain than visit a dentist. They think their problems can be solved with pain killers. To their chagrin, they discover that these medications cannot give them permanent relief. They fail to realize that they also make themselves vulnerable to infections that can affect their overall health. Fortunately, more Americans presently make it a habit to visit their dentists regularly.
To make dental visits less stressful, people should make it a point to talk to their dentists. The rapport established by open communication lessens the patient's fears, which in turn makes him or her more comfortable. This way, the dentist can devise the necessary treatments and solutions to address the patient's fears. The dentists Myrtle Beach patients visit are always free to hear your concerns.
Patients can relax and take their minds off the procedure by listening to music or watching videos. Various forms of relaxation effectively reduce feelings of stress, which in turn makes it easier for the dentist to facilitate the procedure. If the anxiety persists despite these efforts, perhaps it's time to consider medication or anesthesia. These measures are much more effective today than they were in the past. Sedation dentistry may also be an option for those experiencing above-normal stress levels.
Brushing and flossing the teeth before visiting the dentist can also relieve anxiety. One doesn't have to worry about having bad breath, which is one of the reasons why a lot of people refuse to see their dentists. Finally, it will be a great help to visit a reputable dentist. A prospective patient can ask family members, friends, and colleagues to arrive at the best choice. Their experiences with the dentists they recommend can help ease one's worries.
Regular consultations is very important, not only for oral health, but for one's overall well-being. A single visit to a dentist Myrtle Beach patients consider trustworthy like Dr. Birch and his colleagues can lessen your fears and convince you to prioritize your oral health.

209a Restraining Order Violations
br> br>
Once a 209A Order is issued, violation of certain terms of the Order is a criminal offense. Violations of orders to refrain from abuse , to have no contact, and to vacate a household, multiple family dwelling or workplace, can be prosecuted criminally under chapter 209A. If the abuser violates the order, call the police immediately. Show the Order to the police and explain how it was violated ( a punch, slap, threat; entering your house or apartment or refusing to vacate; or, any contact with you at home or your workplace, either in person, by telephone or mail). The police must arrest the abuser if they believe or can see that the terms of the Order were violated. If you do not call the police, you may be able to file an application for a criminal complaint on your own at the Clerk's Office in the District Court. A Victim/Witness Advocate can assist you with that process.
If you put yourself in contact with the abuser, he is vulnerable to arrest. Therefore, if you want any terms of the order to no longer apply, you should return to court and ask that the order be modified or vacated.
If the abuser is arrested, seek assistance from the Victim/ Witness Advocate in the District Attorney's Office the next morning after a nighttime arrest, or at any time during the day at the courthouse. A Victim/Witness Advocate will explain what the charges mean and what will happen next. The Advocate will also offer ongoing information, referral for services and cases updates throughout the time the case is in court.
In addition to the crime of violating a 209A Order, an abuser can be charged with a number of other crimes committed at or near the time of the violation, some of which may include:
- Assault (G.L. c. 265, Section 13A), which is an attempt or offer to do bodily injury by force or violence or attempt to batter.
- Assault and Battery ( G.L. c. 265, Section 13A), which is a harmful or unjustified touching of another, no matter how slight, without a legal right to do so.
- Assault and Battery by Means of a Dangerous Weapon ( G.L. c. 265, Section 15), which is a battery with a dangerous weapon, such as a baseball bat, a shod foot, a knife or other object either inherently dangerous or used in a way that may cause serious injury or death to another.
- Threats (G.L. c. 27, section 4), which are verbal or written threats to do harm which a victim reasonably believes the abuser can commit.
- Trespassing ( G.L. c. 266, section 120), which is entering or remaining in a house or on land in violation of a 209A Order.
- Malicious Destruction Of Personal Property (G.L. c. 266, section 127), which is the destruction of or injury to personal property, a house or building in a manner that is willful and malicious.
- Stalking (G.L. c. 265, section, 43 (a)), which is the willful, malicious and repeated following or harassing of an individual and the making of threats with the intent to place that person in imminent fear of death or serious bodily injury. The penalties are greater for a conviction of a stalking crime committed in violation of a 209A Order.
Once a criminal complaint has been issued or an arrest made, the abuser will be charged with the crime or crimes at an arraignment proceeding in the District Court. A bail hearing will be held to determine whether the defendant/abuser will be released from custody, the court must make a reasonable effort to notify you of the release, even if you are not present in court.
It is important to provide information to the Assistant District Attorney before the arraignment and bail hearing regarding the history of the abuse and a description of the most recent abuse, including any pictures or hospital records of injuries. You should also mention the location of any guns or other weapons that you believe the abuser has in his or her possession.
The Assistant District Attorney ill bring this information to the attention of the judge, along with your safety concerns and fears at this time. The judge may also consider whether the defendant/ abuser should be jailed until trial; or, if the defendant/ abuser is to be released, what the bail and conditions of bail will be.
The Assistant District Attorney represents the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in prosecuting the case , and works with the Victim/Witness Advocate to address your interests and assist you during trial.
Interviews will be held with you before the trial, to gather information and evidence for prosecution. Every effort will be made to consider your needs and safety in going forward with the case. The safety of your children will also be priority .
Prosecution may provide the means to gain batterer's intervention services for the defendant/abuser as part of a sentence recommendation. Very few batterer's seek or stay with these services on their own, without court orders and probation supervision. An Assistant District will speak with you about different sentences that can be imposed if the defendant /abuser is found guilty by a judge or jury or pleads guilty. The sentence asked for may include drug or alcohol counseling, required attendance at a batterer's intervention program, supervised probation and /or jail time.
Certified batterer's intervention programs provide services in very strict group settings to try to help batterer's learn to accept responsibility for their violence, as well as understand and change their controlling and abusive behavior.
The groups are led by certified batterer's intervention counselor's trained in dealing with domestic violence offenders. The programs work with the courts and victim services to help make sure that partners of batterer's remain safe. The programs may involve weekly sessions of 1 to 2 hours in length. The batterer must participate in the program for a minimum of 80 hours. Group leaders feel your safety is a priority concern and will keep ongoing contact with you.
There are no guarantees that the violence will stop because the abuser attends a certified batterer's intervention program. Many abusers drop out of programs or do not comply with the requirements, or only reduce their abuse temporarily. If the judge requires attendance as part of a sentence, dropping out may mean the defendant/ abuser may have to serve jail time. The abuser must want to change the abusive behavior and work hard at making those changes. Promises to change, flowers and apologies are not enough. You deserve to be safe and free from abuse.
Statistically, the most dangerous time for victim is when leaving the batterer. The abuser may feel he is losing control and become dangerously angry. Take steps to protect yourself from abuse or punishment from your abuser. Please trust your instincts. If you are afraid that something may happen, take your feelings seriously and protect yourself. You know your situation better than anyone else.
Develop a safety plan that includes an escape plan for you and your children should a violent incident occur. During an incident, try to move away from an area or room where access to weapons might increase your risk, such as the kitchen, or where you can be trapped or easily injured.
Call the police or leave the house as soon as possible after an abusive incident. The police will respond and stay with you until you are safe or in a safe place. The police will also help you seek medical treatment, if needed. If you feel you may be in danger, dial the police number and hang up before it rings, so that the redial button will automatically call the police if you need them quickly.
Be alert when leaving the courthouse. If you have any reason to believe your abuser may be waiting for you, please ask someone in the District Attorney's Office or Court Advocate to help. A police officer or a court officer may be able to escort you to your car.
Guns or weapons will be ordered turned over to the police by the judge, along with any license to carry the guns and firearms identification card. Inform the police of any guns/weapons the abuser may keep in the house.
Consider changing the locks on your home. The judge can order the abuser to turn over the keys to your home and/or your car. Keep an extra set of keys in a safe place.
Inform your neighbors if a 209A order is in place. Encourage them to call the police if they see or suspect that something is wrong.
Make copies of important papers and keep them in a safe place. Make a list of the things you need to take with you (birth/medical records, marriage license, check/ bank books, credit cards, medications).
Keep emergency money and extra clothes for yourself and your children in a safe place or with someone you trust. Include a few toys and favorite things for the children.
Keep the victim's service agency number handy for emergency shelter and for support groups.; You do not have to leave the abuser or have a 209A Order to attend the support groups. Information and support in making decisions are important.
Get Medical attention as you may be injured much more seriously than you realize. Go to a hospital emergency room or your private doctor as soon as possible for treatment. Ask for a copy of the treatment record.
Have pictures taken of your injuries and bruises at the hospital, police department, shelter or District Attorney's Office.

"The more difficult the delivery system and the more frequently medication is needed, the more difficult it is for patients to adhere to their drug regimens," Dr. Langer said. "Because of recent innovations, patient compliance is improving tremendously and new treatments are being ushered in."
Dr. Langer spoke today at an American Medical Association media briefing on patient communication and adherence in New York City.
The future of drug delivery systems will involve "smart" systems, Dr. Langer said. "These would address the issue of keeping the drug at a desired therapeutic level in the body while avoiding the need for frequent administration." One such system under study uses the detection of chemical signals in the body to prompt the release of drugs. Another being tested uses microchips placed under the skin or into the spinal cord or brain to deliver drugs ranging from pain medication to chemotherapy. The microchips are designed with wells that are loaded with drugs and covered with gold foil caps--the application of a one-volt electrical signal dissolves the caps and releases the medication.
The gut, the skin and the lungs are the major routes through which medication such as pills or aerosols are delivered; however, all three pose inherent problems for drug delivery, according to Dr. Langer. "We are, however, finding ways around these hurdles," he said.
"The difficulty with the gut is that digestive acids and enzymes break down drugs before they reach their targets; also, it is not easy for drugs to pass through the wall of the intestine," Dr. Langer explained. Newer systems circumvent these problems in a number of ways. One uses drugs coated with a polymer, a plastic, degradable coating that adheres to and penetrates intestinal cells more readily and enters the bloodstream more quickly. Other polymers have been designed to swell in response to exposure to stomach acid, thus protecting the drug inside from being broken down too early, while still others have a slow-release mechanism that allows medication to be released gradually.
"Polymers for delivering drugs in patients with schizophrenia have just been approved by the FDA," Dr. Langer stated. "These patients previously had to take a pill daily to control their symptoms--now they can take the drug every two weeks. Polymers that continuously release medications to treat alcoholism and diabetes are currently in clinical trials."
The skin presents yet another barrier to drug delivery, Dr. Langer explained. "It can be fairly impenetrable and few drugs have just the right composition to cross it." A new method, sonophoresis, uses a painless approved ultrasound system to drive drugs through the skin and into the skin's blood vessels. Sonophoresis is especially useful for delivering pain medications expeditiously and is also being studied for delivering insulin, Dr. Langer said.
The lungs also can be difficult to penetrate and protective immune cells within the lungs often destroy drugs delivered there, Dr. Langer explained. Many drugs are currently delivered to this area to treat lung conditions or to administer a drug to the bloodstream quickly that treats disease elsewhere in the body. "The solution," Dr. Langer said, "is delivering very fine particles [liquid or powder] that can reach deep into the lungs. This is achieved by preventing the aerosol particles from sticking together, which allows for a finer mist." These particles can then be delivered with inhalers, some of which can be programmed to deliver specific doses.
"The ultimate goal," Dr. Langer concluded, "is to administer drugs at the right time, at the right dose anywhere in the body with specificity and efficiency. This will help all patients take their medications when they need them and in the amounts they need."
To contact Robert S. Langer, Sc.D., call Elizabeth A. Thomson at 617-258-5402 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
On the day of the briefing, call the AMA's Science News Department at 312-464-2410.

Kick Ass PicturesThe bigger the cushion... The better the pushin'. Case in point: the exquisite ass of Lorena Sanchez. It's full and ripe, bursting with youthful energy. This is one girl who would truly give you a pneumatic fuck. Forget about trying to do the pull-out method. It would be too good! One minute you'd be pumping away, then suddenly your cock would be erupting geysers of potent sperm into her womb. Bad news if she's your girl on the side. But good news if you're a porn actor and don't give a fuck you just shrug and say oops! and collect your paycheck. And of course, slap Lorena's lovely ass on your way out the door.
