To all of you who say the Careington Dental Plan is a rip off it's not .. you probably just didn't go over the plan and follow all the rules!! You have to go to a provider that honors the plan! If you go to a dentist that honors the plan but does not honor the discount, this is Something that needs to be reported to Careington b/c that dental office is under contract and they have to honor the discounts.. they can get in to trouble if they don't. Careington pretty much covers all the... (read more)

Carington 500 only covers 1 dentist so if you don't like it, then lump it. They lie and push a bunch of dental work on you that you don't need and you are forced after paying carington to either allow it all or lose all the money you pay to carington. It's better to find a kind dentist you can say no to. Their x ray machines look fancy but dont work. They think that you are their slave. We traveled to 3 different dentists and another was a false one. We traveled over 100 miles to go to a... (read more)

I called in got my carington plan. But before I had the plan a dentist was charging me for 9 cavities. Between $250 and $371 each one. After I got the Carington 500 plan I searched up a dentist in their list loved the place and said I only needed 3 of those cavities to actually be filled and the rest could be taken care of myself by flossing and perscribed me a tooth paste. From my regular dentist it would of been $2400 but the the Carington dentise for 3 cavities it was on average $221 and... (read more)

My ederly Mom needed dentures and after pricing dentist including the dentist i chose off the plan was just too epensive. I chose Careington because of the plan cost and the fact that there is no waiting period. I can say I was very happy with my choice.

At first this seemed amazing, I found myself telling friends and family about this plan and how they need to try it. When I went to visit the dentist, one I had chose from the list that they have provided I was quoted different prices. The sales rep assured me that the prices he quoted are set. I found this information to be very misleading. This plan is only good for individuals who do not need a lot of work done, and would be more beneficial to those who need it for a check up here and...

I didn't have dental insurance due to job loss. Out of deseperation and after reading many reviews, I decided to go with Careington 500 plan. I found a dentist the next day and went in, had a tooth extracted, an exam and a bite-wing x-ray and only payed $79. That was $100 less than what I was quoted at my normal dentist's office. Although, I have only used it once, I can say that it is definitely a good deal for what you pay. Not as good as insurance, but close enough. I definitely think it... (read more)

Here is my recommendation to everybody based on my personal experience.
The discounts mentioned in their website apply only for the GENERAL DENTIST. If you go to any specialist like Oral Surgeon, Orthodontist, Prosthodontists etc, they will give you only 20% discount. And there is a disclaimer in their website which says that you get 20% discounts with specialist. In their website, they have mentioned they you get 50%-70% discounts for Oral Surgeries, tooth extractions etc, that applies only...

My husband and I have been using this plan for over a year, and I love it. In the last 6 months alone, we have saved almost $4,000 on our dental costs -- and that's just at the general dentist!
Strengths: $6.95/mo. for individual, Starts immediately, No maximums, Fully discloses fee schedule online (only one I've seen to do so)
Weaknesses: After becoming a member, you must relate to the headquarters -- not so bad, but you do go through an automated voice system at first.

I've made this French Toast recipe for years for vegans, omnivores and carnivores; everyone loves it. It is so simple and only takes minutes to prepare, which is why I like it. I would give credit to where the recipe came from but I honestly don't remember. I think a vegan friend told me about it many years ago.
Written by Mattie
This vegan French Toast recipe is just one more reason to get up in the morning. It's great for brunch with friends too because you don't have to waste the whole morning being on griddle duty as much as you do with pancakes. It features chickpea flour, nutritional yeast flakes, cinnamon, nutmeg and cardamom to bring out the best combination of savory and sweet flavors.
Written by Mattie
This Ferocious French Toast recipe utilizes the creaminess of cashew butter and just the right combination of tahini instead of the usual eggs. These nut butters get slightly toasted during cooking which adds a complex savory richness that's further enhanced by cinnamon and nutmeg. It's a delicious vegan take on the old classic.

Acquisitions of companies such as Sun, BEA, Peoplesoft, Cognos, Siebel, Business Objects, and countless others the past few years have created a competition vacuum in the enterprise software space. For example, in the last five years or so, Oracle has spent over thirty billion USD purchasing nearly sixty companies. Microsoft has gobbled up eighty or so, IBM sixty, EMC forty and Hewlett-Packard approximately thirty-five. And these are just the giants.
The next tier of enterprise software companies also have pretty long lists of recent acquisitions. So one can imagine quite easily that this collective buying spree has created a deep void in the landscape of enterprise software, and as a result creates a tremendous opportunity.
Fortunately, companies like StrikeIron with our data-as-a-service external data and data verification components can benefit extensively from this trend, providing important pieces to these emerging applications with ease.

Group unveils plans for Ojai theater center The cheery vision of traveling performers, high school kids, local theater groups and musical extravaganzas taking turns entertaining Ojai's townspeople on modern, technically advanced stages comes closer to fruition with each passing day. So say organizers of the Ojai Performing Arts Theater. Human catalyst Joan Kemper, architect and city councilman David Bury, Nordhoff music teacher Bill Wagner, and Ojai Unified School District Assistant Superintendent Jim Berube presented plans and goals for the theater, which has turned into a joint venture between performers, townspeople and the district, to the public at the Ojai Playhouse Friday night. The complex will include a 450-seat main theater and a smaller "black-box theater" that can double as a rehearsal space. The building will also house a scene shop with loading dock, an art court, offices, a lobby area with two gallery spaces and 10 classrooms, which will replace what Bury said he believed were the oldest structures at the school. All areas will be handicapped-accessible. The main stage will feature a technical booth, lighting equipment and a proscenium stage. An orchestra pit was a late addition not shown on plans revealed to the public. A study allowing the builders to dig deep enough for its inclusion only recently came through, Bury said. Located on the northeast corner of the campus, the facility will cost about $15 million to build. Kemper said she's seeking endowment funding of $5 million that could be used for many purposes, including discounting student and senior admissions. She said in a July meeting with the school board that donors will have the opportunity to contribute to the endowment by, for instance, buying naming rights to a seat or dressing room. On Friday she said that all the money for the construction phase will come from "government funds, grants and national foundations." With an assist from the district. The original organizers, including Kemper and many members of Ojai's larger artistic community, brought their idea to the school board in May, seeking not only their go-ahead but a financial commitment. The board authorized a loan of $300,000 at a July meeting. Bond money allocated to the district for capital improvements paid for the school district's contribution. At the July meeting, Kemper said the district would be fully reimbursed. "When we get the final construction funding, well pay it back, from both state and federal sources and miscellaneous grants," Kemper said. Meanwhile, construction is set to go forward in the near future and completion is scheduled for 2005. Two more public meetings are planned but dates have not been set. But the vision is clear. "I envision our kids and our teachers on a professional performing arts stage," said Berube to a crowd approaching 85 people at the beginning of Friday's meeting. He said that deals could be in the works for students who make the best use of the facilities and new arts curricula the district plans to implement. Paramount, Disney and Universal, he said, have all expressed interest in providing internships. Kemper and her partners in the Ojai Performing Arts Theater Foundation also envision the complex as an attraction for talent of both the local and the touring varieties. In answer to audience queries, she said that the theater would shut down two weeks each year but could be used for performance the other 50 weeks. On average, she said, the community might see three professional shows and, maybe, something from a non-profit another night each week, in addition to student shows. Details, she said, of how the booking and scheduling will be done, have yet to be worked out entirely. "Finding a good theater manager will be key," she said. The manager will run things and the foundation will lease the land where the theater sits from the district for 99 years, said Kemper. Several questions from the audience probed at the issue of the sharing of space between kids and professionals. Said Kemper, "There will be cooperation because we're neighbors." Other citizens expressed concern about pedestrian safety, parking and traffic congestion and potential conflicts with other school events. Bury said he believed there would be sufficient parking and that one reason for building on the northeast corner was access to other lots besides those on campus. He also said he didn't expect a big increase in traffic. "I see it as solving a traffic problem," he said, because the theater will save people trips to other outlets in Ventura, Santa Barbara and Los Angeles. As for legislation to prevent the dangers to pedestrians in front of the high school, he said, "I believe that's going to happen whether this theater triggers it or not." Kemper said many more specifics will be ironed out by the Spring © 2003 The Ojai Valley News

FRIDAY, Aug. 10 (HealthDay News) -- Infants exposed to certain types of mold are at greater risk for childhood asthma, according to a new study.
"This is strong evidence that indoor mold contributed to asthma development, and this stresses the urgent need for remediating water damage in homes, particularly in low-income urban areas where this is a common issue," the study's lead author, Tiina Reponen, a professor in the environmental health department at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine, said in a university news release.
In conducting the long-term study, researchers from the University of Cincinnati, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center followed the allergy development and respiratory health of nearly 300 infants. All of the infants had at least one parent with allergies.
The children were examined once a year for their first four years and reexamined when they turned 7 to determine if they had developed asthma.
During the study, the researchers also took the children's home environment into account to assess their exposure to allergens and mold. Water damage is the usual cause of indoor mold.
The study revealed 25 percent of children developed asthma by the time they were age 7. The only indoor contaminant identified as a risk factor for the condition was mold.
Using a DNA-based mold-analysis tool, the researchers found three particular types of mold were associated with the development of childhood asthma among the infants: Aspergillus ochraceus, Aspergillus unguis and Penicillium variabile.
"Previous scientific studies have linked mold to worsening asthma symptoms, but the relevant mold species and their concentrations were unknown, making it difficult for public health officials to develop tools to effectively address the underlying source of the problem," Reponen said.
Based on the study's findings, Reponen added that treatments for asthma might be more effective if they target specific mold species.
The study is published in the August issue of the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology.
One in 10 U.S. children suffers from asthma, the researchers said.

The U.S. National Institutes of Health provides more information on asthma in children.
FRIDAY, Aug. 3 (HealthDay News) -- Kids with a serious food allergy generally have to steer clear of the offending food, but methods now under development could change that common scenario.
More than 3 million American youths -- about one of every 25 -- have a food allergy of some sort, usually to milk, eggs or peanuts, according to U.S. government statistics. For them, "avoidance has been the mainstay of treatment for a long time," said Dr. William Silvers, an allergist in private practice in Vail, Colo., and a spokesman for the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology.
"Now what we're seeing is an increased interest in oral immunotherapy," Silvers said. "This means giving small and slowly increased doses orally of foods that children are allergic to, and building up the amount ingested over time to desensitize the child to the food so they can tolerate it."
That doesn't come string-free, though. Dr. Carla Davis, an allergist at Texas Children's Hospital in Houston, noted that once children have been desensitized to a certain food, they have to continue eating it regularly or they'll become allergic to the food again.
"There isn't a maintenance of tolerance if you avoid the foods," she explained.
Along with desensitization, another potential new treatment for food allergies is a drug called omalizumab (Xolair). Silvers said that it works by blocking the activity of the allergy-causing substance known as immunoglobulin E (IgE) so that an allergic reaction never starts.
However, the food allergy would come back if a person were to stop using the drug, which is currently available only in an injectable form and has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for use in children younger than 12.
Some researchers, though, think that a combination of the two treatments might be better than either alone. Early reports from a very small study found that nine of 11 children who were given Xolair and then desensitized to milk were able to consume up to 12 ounces of dairy a day without a reaction.
Davis said that researchers also are testing herbal formulations and that one particular combination of nine herbs was able to prevent a serious allergic reaction, known as anaphylaxis, in mice. "It's another one of the treatments that may be up-and-coming," she said, though there's no evidence in humans yet.
What has been proven true, though, is that many kids simply outgrow their food allergies, even some of the most deadly ones. Davis said that as many as one in five youngsters may outgrow an allergy to peanuts but that allergies to eggs, milk, soy and wheat are most often outgrown. In general, peanuts, tree nuts and seafood allergies tend to stay with children as they grow, she said.
To know whether a child has outgrown a food allergy requires repeated skin and blood tests, Silvers said. "If IgE levels in the blood decrease over time, or if skin testing comes back negative or a very small reaction, a child or adult can be given a food challenge to see if they'll react," he said.
To be safe, though, the testing "must be done under a physician's supervision," Davis said, because a serious reaction could occur if the youngster has not outgrown the allergy.
For kids with lingering food allergies, Silvers recommended that the child or parent always carry the antihistamine Benadryl and an epinephrine injection pen. If it's suspected that the child accidentally ingested an allergy-inducing food, the youngster should take the antihistamine right away. If the allergic reaction worsens, administer the epinephrine and get to an emergency room as quickly as possible.
It's important to go to the hospital after a serious allergic reaction, Davis said, because there can be a second wave to the reaction about four to six hours later.
Many children have their own epinephrine pens at their school nurse's office. In Chicago, the public school system recently decided to take the next step and keep a supply of epinephrine pens in every school, and train school personnel in their use, so that they're prepared for any serious allergic reactions.
"This is a good idea because about one in five children have their first serious reaction in school," Davis said.
For those living with food allergies, Davis said, it's important to find a balance between being vigilant and being overanxious. Parents should be "prepared for a reaction, but shouldn't expect one all the time," she said. "Some parents become extremely anxious about the contact their child may have with food. Health vigilance is important, but so is quality of life."
The U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases has more about treating food allergies.

Jurnal Darussalam
The first two aricles concerned the historical relationship between Brunei and China, one written by Pehin Jamil, the Head of the History Centre and the other written by a Chinese scholar historian, Professor Wu Zongyu.
Pehin's article entitled 'Raja Brunei dari China?' ('Did the Brunei King come from China?') was rather short but concentrate on a few European sources (Low, Groenevelt, Logan and Brown) on the possibility of the early Brunei Sultanate was of Chinese origin. Logan and Brown both noted the possibility that Ong Sum Peng, the son in law of Sultan Muhammad, became Sultan Ahmad (the second Sultan) and this was backed up by the 'Salasilah Raja-Raja Brunei' version Datu Iman Aminuddin (written in the 1800s). But Pehin contended that it was the Chinese record of the Ming Dynasty that maintained that when Sultan Muhammad died, he was replaced by Sultan Abdul Majid Hassan and a tombstone with the name of his daughter was actually found in Brunei stating that fact. He further argued that the throne would normally be passed from father to son and if there is no heir, then it would go to the brother. So in this case since Sultan Abdul Majid died in China, it was the brother of Sultan Muhammad, Awang Pateh Berbai who took over the throne.
Interesting possibility but not altogether impossible. After all it happened some 600 years ago and nobody really knew what happened then. Some can argue that Sultan Abdul Majid Hassan is actually not in the Salasilah Raja-Raja Brunei but his tomb was found in China and to put him in the current record would mean rejigging the numbers of the Sultans which makes thirty altogether instead of the present twenty nine. So, there is a possibility that he did not make it back to Brunei in time to take the throne and that someone else took over. The other argument that the throne normally passes to the brother conveninently forgetting the fact that the third Brunei Sultan, Sultan Sharif Ali, was also not the son of Sultan Ahmad but he was the son in law of Sultan Ahmad and he was not a Bruneian either, he originated from Arabia. I rest my case.
Professor Wu Zongyu wrote a very interesting article entitled the 'Brunei-China Friendship' on the history of the relationship from the sources of the documents from the Chinese very long history. The first mention of Brunei was in 517 CE when the then King of Brunei sent their first diplomatic mission to China. This king is not even known in Brunei's history and was 1,000 years earlier before Sultan Muhamamad, the first Brunei Sultan. In one reply from the Emperor of China, the Emperor stated that he named one of the mountain in Brunei 'Gunong Negeri Aman Sepanjang Masa' translated as 'Mountain of the country of Ever Peaceful' which the Professor related to the 'Darussalam' name of Brunei. Has Darussalam been in Brunei's name for that long ago or is it a coincident? In Brunei, there was also found a tombstone with the name Pu Gong which can be dated to between 900 to 1200 CE, some 250 to 500 years earlier before Sultan Muhammad. Pu Gong is actually a Muslim name as Pu means Abu in Chinese then. The Chinese Muslims were actually here much earlier than before Sultan Muhammad converted to Islam. So was it the Arabs who brought Islam to Brunei or did it come through China?
Professor Wu made two other interesting points, one about the origin of the tapioca in China. He stated that the origin of the common tapioca in China is from Brunei and was brought by a Chinese named Jin Xuezeng from Fujian Province and the tapioca was named 'ubi Brunei' or 'ubi Jin', The other point was that in 750 CE, one record stated that a Chinese named Wang Yao built a ship 60 meter long for somone named Li Luan with timber from Brunei. The ship was capable of carrying 2,000 tonnes. It's amazing when you think about it. Brunei was exporting timber about 900 years ago to China to build Chinese vessels and no doubt indirectly helping China expand its territories around the region.
The final article I wanted to focus on is written by Dr Hadi entitled, 'Brunei within the Era of Malaysia-Indonesia Confrontation 1963-1969'. Due to space constraint, I would not go into details but shall just reproduce the introduction to the article '...The effects of the Brunei Revolt should be discussed in two areas. Internally it sounded the death knell of the popular representative government in Brunei while within the wider regional context, the revolt served as the catalyst for Indonesia's policy of Confrontation with Malaysia. It is the aim of this paper to discuss the latter effect of the revolt. Briefly it will highlight the revival of the National Army of North Kalimantan (TNKU), the military left-wing of the Partai Rakyat Brunei (PRB) after the Revolt of December of 1962...' Sounds very interesting, right? The article touched on a subject which used to be uncomfortable for us in Brunei. To be able to discuss this just shows how much we have moved on since then.
If you want to know more, head right over to the shop at the History Centre at Jalan Sultan and fork out $** .... I just realised I don't know how much the journal cost ... anyway I think it's less than $10. For that amount of money, you can take a journey back in time to 1,000 years ago in Brunei History. That's real good value for money.

wow, that's fascinating stuff.
i'm a bruneian student currently doing history at an aussie university. this semester, i'm taking a unit about indonesian history.
the debate about how islam came to SE Asia is really interesting. the most recent theory to emerge is that the chinese brought islam to SE Asia. many indonesian scholars are resistant to the idea because of the complicated relationship between chinese and malays in indonesia's history.
however islam first came to the malay archipelago, the development of islam in indonesia owes a lot to chinese initative. the chinese were muslims long before the malays. admiral Zheng He of '1421' fame was a mariner and diplomat for the Ming dynasty as well as coming from a very prominent chinese muslim family. on his expeditions he established muslim communities all over the archipleago - melaka, kalimantan, java, sumatra and the philippines.
i would really love to read the articles in that journal. i doubt they're avilable online? if only i was in brunei and could drive down to the history centre! - Friday, September 29, 2006 6:42:00 AM

Another book which I think is a must read is Brunei: Revival of 1906, by BA Hussainmiya. It made me realise how lucky we are with the decisions made the Sultan at that time and how we should not think highly of the British now. Why should we not? Go on and read it.... Enough to say that if things had been different, we can travel to Temburong through Limbang without using our passports.
A good read, a recommended book. - Friday, September 29, 2006 9:37:00 AM
Fascinating. I love reading stuff about Brunei history and then speculating (since that's all we can really do!) about what it might have been like back then. How everything looked like and was everyone huge (following on from the human population seemingly shrinking as time passes?!) and all sorts of trivial or not-so-trivial things.
There might very well be a connection, which might explain why Chinese references feature so much in Brunei history (like China knowing Brunei as Po-li/Po-ni and whathabeyou).
Thanks for the heads up about the Jurnal as well. First I've heard of it=D - Friday, September 29, 2006 2:00:00 PM

I will not be in Chicago on Saturday night but I just got a new 55-inch LED TV so I'll have a good view of Comcast SportsNet's exclusive HD telecast of the game. The chat will get going at about 7 p.m. Kickoff is at 8:00 and we'll roll until the game is over.
RG3 and the rest of the offensive starters are slated to play 30 to 35 plays, about half of the game. The starting defense should play about the same number of snaps.
Why Favorite
I had a few folks on Twitter yesterday ask why the Redskins signed defensive lineman Marlon Favorite. The guy can't hold a job. He first signed in the NFL as an undrafted free agent out of LSU in 2009. That first contract was with the Panthers. In the two years and four months that followed he signed with the Rams, Chiefs, Seahawks, Saints, Bills, Colts, Patriots, Eagles, and the Rams again.
St. Louis released him on Sept. 3 of last year and his phone didn't ring until the Redskins called this week to offer the 26-year-old his 11th NFL contract with his 10th different team. It's hard to stay what stands out more, his inability to hold an NFL job or his ability to keep getting them.
I told the people on Twitter that the Redskins signed someone like Favorite because there are no Pro Bowl caliber players walking the streets in mid-August. The 32 NFL teams each have 90 players under contract so the top 2,880 pro football players in the world already have jobs.
Favorite is not going to make the Redskins. He will get some work with the third-team defense in practice and play late in the last two preseason games. The Redskins get a body to give the players who are going to make the team some rest. Favorite gets a chance to get some play on film that he hopes will help him land his 12th NFL contract at some point down the road.
No availability today but we're still working
There will be no media availability today at Redskins Park as the team will travel to Chicago. That won't stop us as we'll have posts on Josh Wilson, players to watch, Kirk Cousins and we'll examine whether or not Rex Grossman will take up a roster spot.
In case you missed it
The defensive line depth chart still looks pretty good in the wake of Chris Neild's season-ending injury but part of the safety net is gone.
Wide receiver Dez Briscoe isn't looking to have a big year, he's just looking to be a part of a team.
This has drawn some comments, go and add yours—The 37 locks to make the Redskins' roster.
Days until: Redskins @ Bears 1; RG3 vs. Luck @ FedEx Field 8; first cuts 10; final cuts 14; Redskins @ Saints 23; home opener vs. Bengals 37

Entrepreneurial fund rising in France
Eefficiency is an entrepreneurial fund specializing in Internet startups. Our investment scope covers all French companies, which are, at heart, internet-focused. (financement de startups) Founded by Tristan Colombet and Jean-Jacques Jurus, who were respectively CEO-founder and CEO of Prizee.com until 2012, Eefficiency plays a role halfway between that of angels and that of traditional investment funds. It provides investment capital along with active human involvement. Our perspective is that of business leaders, we offer our experience to talented young entrepreneurs to provide more than just funding. We have deliberately focused on a limited number of investments in order to remain in direct contact with their leaders and to play an active role in their corporate life. We particularly favour B2C and C2C projects. Our field of study includes (but is not limited to) all projects relating to: social networks and tools, community platforms, games and gamification tools, publishing portals, directories and content databases (text, photos, videos, music … ), tools and mobile applications, e-commerce … We are looking for companies with strong growth potential, whose product or service is innovative and original, and where the founding team is involved full time. (capital risque en france) We favour companies that have already reached at least the stage of proof of concept, i.e. from the time the projects are visible and they show the first concrete signs of their potential (a growing audience or first sales …). We become involved when companies are looking for equity of between € 200k and € 500k. We are also able to attract co-investment from other funds when larger amounts are required, depending on the needs of the project development stage. We are based in Clermont-Ferrand and Nîmes but we operate with equal commitment throughout France. Our main aim is to invest in people, we support entrepreneurs over the long term. We have no fixed investment horizon nor do we demand an immediate yield. Our priority is to support projects and entrepreneurs in which we truly believe. The straightforward-nature of our decision-making process and the ready availability of our total investment funds allows us to make choices rapidly and with a minimum of complications. We know how the traditional fund-raising process is very time-consuming for business leaders and can take its toll on the growth of their business. In our way of doing business, we offer a real alternative to conventional solutions such as using business angels, conventional venture-capital funds or even crowd-funding. Do not hesitate to submit your project now!
Opt for Print Postcards for Business Marketing
Business marketing entails taking full advantage of different materials and tools. As a businessman, you have to make the most out of those resources that are available to you. If you are tired of the same and the usual marketing materials, for example, be open to other possibilities. Maybe you can find what you are looking for and make use of those in order to increase your earning potential as well as widen your business opportunities. Do not always settle on the familiar. Although the tried and the tested marketing materials can assure you that they are effective, it pays to be a risk-taker sometimes. Brochures, flyers, and posters, among other marketing materials have always been used by businessmen, advertisers, and those individuals involved in marketing. You may want to make a spin out of the novel by using print postcards, familiar print materials that our parents and grandparents use.
Nowadays, you can make use of print postcards for business marketing.

Thanks! Thanks a lot J! Thanks Rob! Haha, thanks Jen at least you think it's impressive! 5/30/12 2 mile walk 5/31/12 Squat 405x2 sped my squat up a bit and the first rep went up easy, second one was very slow and a really big grinder. 425x0 sped up a little more and just didn't feel right and didn't make it out of the hole. Paused Squats 355x3 365x2 365x1 Sumo Deadlifts 455x3 Tried going strapless to work on grip and thumb was crushed between weight and leg and just couldn't hold on anymore. Looked a little later and had an open cut on my thumb. Weight was actually feeling pretty easy. Anderson Squats 585x0 only got about an inch up 565x2 Rackpull 585x0 565x1 Crunch BWx30 BWx30 Walk 2 miles Notes: Not much to say, said most of it already. Only thing to add is that I think I have lost some weight. I actually was able to get to the last hole on my lifting belt with out much struggle. I was looking through my log and saw that the only times I really made good gains with OHPing was with 5/3/1. So I'm going to start running that again for OHPing and have Log press start with the 3 day and Military press with 5 day. Getting ready to lift will be more later. |

Thank you OR! Thanks Pull, just trying to catch up with you! Thank you Josh! Thanks for all the comments, sorry havn't been on the past few days and might not be on again for another but as soon as I can I will check through everyones' logs! 6/1/12 Bench Press TnG 275x5 hard 280x5 easy 285x4 tired Chinups 60x5 60x4 60x5 BWx14 BWx12 BWx10 CGBP 265x4 265x4 265x3 Barbell Rows 245x4 245x3 245x3 Dumbell Curl 55x4 55x4 Pushups BWx35 Walk 2 miles Notes: Only two things I need to note for future use. I could have gotten at least one more on CGBP but I felt very weird in my right hand, like moving the muscle around. Also Curls felt very heavy tonight, very interesting, may be because of all the OHpulling I have been doing. |

Massive work in here Imp! Just keep doing those punch the clock sessions (which seem to be a rare session where you DON'T hit a PR ) and you'll smash everything to pieces on your best days.
No excuses, just results. Getting it done one session at a time. |

At the Wall Street Journal's annual tech conference this week, Oracle (ORCL) CEO Larry Ellison wowed the crowd by teasing the idea that Oracle is about to out-cloud the cloud with its cloudy, cloud-like better-than-a-cloud cloudy cloud offerings. Next week.
But if reporters with a clue about the cloud were listening carefully, what Ellison really offered was bombast.
- Ellison attacked companies that let clients share virtual machines. Who cares where it's running in the cloud - that's an essential part of the architecture.
- Ellison said Oracle's cloud will run exclusively on Oracle hardware. What makes the cloud cost-effective is that it runs on commodity hardware.
- Ellison said Oracle cloud services will exclusively run Oracle software. Open source savings are at the heart of the cloud business model.
Mainly, Ellison displayed his larger-than-life personality and the business media ate it up, because they equate a big personality and big strategies with big success. Sometimes they are. Sometimes they're just narcissism. And sometimes they're just salesmanship.
Ellison spiced his talk with a view toward dethroning IBM in network hardware and high-end servers. Sounds great, but again it has nothing to do with cloud. This is what in poker we call a "tell" - it shows he's really bluffing about all this cloud stuff.
So, yes, Ellison will have updates of his database-based application and he will talk up Oracle as a big cloud player, but investors should know this.
It's only partly cloudy. It's largely a mixture of cloud and smoke -- smog in other words. It's about keeping enterprise customers on-board with a story and hoping they don't find out what real clouds can offer.
And for many it may work, because as much as it costs to buy the Velvet Smog, it may cost more to try and switch vendors.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.

Since 2001, EPA is self financed which is a real challenge for an African cultural institution. To support EPA in this mission ICCROM created an endowment fund: the EPA Fund with the purpose of permitting EPA to cover its operating expenses. The EPA Endowment Fund has received the High Patronage of nine eminent public figures who have embarked on the safeguard of African cultural heritage.
Donations received follow those made for the PREMA 1990-2000 programme during the 14 years of its existence. €6 900 000 were collected from 21 partners at that time.
In 11 years, 2,484,204 euros have been gathered in the EPA Fund, with contributions coming from 23 countries, foundations, international organizations, private organizations and individuals.
In order for the interest earned by the EPA Fund to cover at least 50 % of the operating budget, a resolution was passed by the Member States of ICCROM at its 26th General Assembly in November 2009. It instructed ICCROM to start a new fundraising campaign to increase the EPA trust fund to 3 million euros.
The Ministry of Culture of Luxembourg, the Annenberg Weingarten and Heydar Aliyev Foundation have already responded positively to this call donating a total of 97,000 euros.
The objective of the current campaign : raise 565,800 euros in five years.
We thank the donors who have so far generously contributed 2,484,204 euros to the EPA Fund: |
Support the EPA Fund!
• It's a guarantee of quality and transparency.
• EPA is an original and unique institution in Sub-Saharan Africa.
• The use of cultural heritage as a vector of sustainable development is the future of Africa.
• Supporting EPA means getting involved in an extraordinary human adventure where human and cultural heritage are the essence of every action and project.
How can I help EPA?

East 2nd Street Corridor Study
The MIC has completed a study of the section of US Hwy 2/53 in Superior, Wisconsin. This corridor (also known as East 2nd Street) is an important route for moving people and freight, but it also provides direct access to many homes and businesses. The MICs study looked at how land uses and traffic patterns affect conditions of accessibility, mobility and safety for the various modes of transportation that move along and across the corridor. This work resulted in a number of recommended actions that the City of Superior and the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) can take to improve conditions along East 2nd Street. |

The Met Gala was a family affair for one of the night's more adorable duos. Sisters Dakota and Elle Fanning teamed up with fellow siblings Kate and Laura Mulleavy, the designers behind Rodarte, for their red carpet ensembles. While big sister Dakota went for a more sophisticated gown with a plunging neckline and sheer cut-out midriff, the 15-year-old Elle opted to play with tie-dye in red, blue, and white silk. Despite similar silhouettes, the outfits weren't overly coordinated — and they both put their own spin on the night's punk theme. So, do you love the Fannings' looks?

We owe the recipe for Black Velvet to the passing of Britain's Queen Victoria's consort, Prince Albert, in 1861. It was drunk in place of champagne at Brooks as a sign of mourning. I wasn't mourning when I first had it as an undergraduate years ago but despite that oversight have remained fond of the way the ingredients complement each other.
Making the drink couldn't be easier but the Black Velvet is not a one person drink unless that person is a serious alcoholic. The bartender should have enough thirsty people around to consume bottles of champagne in their entirety so as not to waste any.
To make a black velvet, pour half a glass of Guiness stout down the side of a champagne flute to minimize the head. Then top it up with iced Brut poured slowly over an upside down teaspoon. The spoon helps the champagne to run down the sides of the glass rather than splashing into the stout and mixing with it. The two liquids should remain separate layers, creating a visual affect and a purer pair of tastes.
I first enjoyed the drink at lunch with a bowl of bouillabaisse and I heartily recommend the combination.

I'm afraid there's a rather greivous error in your post regarding the method of mixing a Black Velvet, as a barmaid who carries a floating spoon on her keychain, I couldn't overlook it! If you want the drink to remain in seperate layers the champagne must go in first and then the Guiness is floated on top. If you reverse the pour order both ingredients will be present, and it'll sort of taste the same but you won't get that lovely clean dividing line.
I'm glad to see the drink featured though, it's one of my favorites! - November 13, 2007 at 8:34:00 PM PST

A long-term plan to bring world-class entertainment to the Lutcher Theater culminates this September when the curtain goes up on a new season that includes two tribute performances, five musicals, a comedic musical, a story ballet, a serious drama, a concert, a high-tech, music comedy and four children's performances.
Get a double shot of nostalgia with Wii's Pac-Man Party. One CD ($19.99) hosts '80s arcade games and Millennial play that looks and feels a lot like Candy Land and Monopoly board games.
'The Change-Up'Starring: Jason Bateman, Ryan ReynoldsDirector: Dave DobkinRated: R
The appeal of an R-rated comedy is it tends to be geared more to an adult audience (even if a healthy streak of immaturity is needed to truly enjoy it). The downside is once you've seen one, you've pretty much seen them all.
Webster's dictionary defines the word "burlesque" as theatrical entertainment of a broadly humorous often earthy character consisting of short turns, comic skits, and sometimes striptease acts. The term actually dates back to the 16th century when Italian poet Francesco Berni used it in the title of a work called Opere burlesche.
With the summer movie season past the halfway mark, super hero fatigue is setting in and there are still more to come. Once the last masked man has left the theater, here are some fall movies to look forward to:
'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2'
Starring: Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Emma Watson
Director: David Yates
Rated: PG-13
And so we come to the end. After 10 years and eight movies, Harry Potter and You Know Who face off for a finale that makes for a very satisfying ending to the longest, most successful movie franchise in history.
OK, this video reviewing column is getting personal. Starting as a way to research the appropriateness of games for kiddos, my 9-year-old gamer son included, the column has now forced me to enjoy myself and has become a HUGE distraction to making dinner, doing laundry and other daily mommy jobs. In fact, I nearly missed the deadline for this review because it was "my play."
Although this movie will hardly be anointed the comedy of the summer, it does benefit from the royalty cast as its leads. The pairing of Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts brings a respite from super heroes and clanking robots, and it's a welcome offering even though it has some weak spots, mainly its premise.
'Bad Teacher'
Starring: Cameron Diaz, Justin Timberlake, Jason Segel
Director: Jake Kasdan
Rated: R
Despite the ban on the sale and use of fireworks in Jefferson and the surrounding counties, the show must and will go on!
The city of Beaumont's traditional Fourth of July celebration with music, concert, food, drinks and the grand finale — fireworks — will be as big, bright and booming as it has been for the last 25 years.
Beaumont/Port Arthur
While we harbor no disrespect for the Wall Street Journal who called us "that scrappy little paper from Southeast Texas," we prefer to think of ourselves as simple seekers of the truth. We're of the opinion that headlines and sound bites never tell the whole story. Our readers demand all the facts, facets and flavors of every story or event. And, they expect to be informed, educated and stirred to action.

Buy 2 Medela Freestyle Double Electric Breastp... for £296.99 each
Buy 3+ Medela Freestyle Double Electric Breastp... for £294.02 each
One of the smallest double Electric Breast Pumps in the world helps mothers save precious time and offers freedom of movement whilst pumping. Freestyle is ideal for daily and regular use.
Are you separated from your baby during the day? Are you unable to breastfeed your baby directly due to work commitments or because your baby has had to stay in hospital? The Freestyle Double Electric Breast Pump helps you to pump breast milk efficiently and comfortably - no matter where you are. Double pumping also saves you precious time and improves milk production.
The 2-Phase Expression Technology is based on the natural sucking rhythm of the baby: Short, stimulating movements are followed by longer, more intensive ones, ensuring an optimal milkflow. Its faster let-down and maximum milkflow significantly reduces pumping time. So you can express more milk in less time - and more comfortably.
The double electric breastpump is easy to use. You can either change between the two phases yourself or pre-set the vacuum setting which is most comfortable with a simple touch of a button.
When you have chosen your preferred vacuum level and pumping pattern, the unique memory function can save your settings which can be easily recalled the next time you use the pump. The Freestyle Electric Breastpump offers control and safety when pumping breastmilk: the large LCD display shows you the most important information.
Freestyle has been developed especially for daily and regular use. The complete solution allows you to enjoy maximum freedom whilst pumping. Double pumping gives you extra time for yourself and baby. The practical all in one solution offers you everything you need for safe and comfortable pumping whilst on the go.

It has reached the point where your smartphone or tablet can be your stereo. Whether you subscribe to a free streaming music services or just have your phone loaded up with thousands of songs, there's little need for a bulky music player that sits on a shelf all the time.
But phones and other such mobile devices have a weakness -- their built-in speakers are universally bad, with little or no bass and muffled sound. For the most part, I don't listen to music through these, and even podcasts sound bad.
That's why you should consider investing in an external speaker for your smartphone or tablet. I've been testing out one of these -- the Aluratek Bump (APS01F) -- and I've found a lot to like.
The Bump looks a bit like a mushroom. The speaker takes up the whole top, while on the bottom is the status light, mini-USB charging port, and the audio cable in its recessed holding slot.
My only complaint about the design is the short audio cable. It's just under 4-inches long, which means that the speaker has to be right next to your phone, iPod, etc. It's nice that the cable can be stored in its little recessed slot, but it doesn't stay in there very well. I have to put tape over it when I'm traveling to keep it from flopping out. These are just a minor irritations, though.
When you first look at the Bump you don't see the power button because it's on a section that retracts inside this accessory. This movable section, called the extension base, stays out of the way when you're carrying the Bump around, but can be popped out to create an internal bass chamber.
Setting up the Bump is simple: pop out the extension base, pull out the audio cable and plug it into your device of choice, then turn on the power switch. Whatever is playing on your phone, tablet, MP3 player will immediately start coming out of this accessory... and it will sound much, much better.
Audio quality when compared with the built-in speakers of any of my phones or tablets is night-and-day -- there's actually some bass, a thing few phones can provide. It's not going to rival the audio quality of a set of Bose speakers, but it's considerably more portable and affordable.
The volume you'll get from this accessory is also much better than any mobile gadget's internal speaker that I know of. It's loud enough that my wife and I can watch movies together on an iPad without straining to hear, which isn't possible with that tablet's built-in speaker. But if you really intend to crank up the decibels, you're going to need a full system with an amp and some serious speakers. No one is going to pound on your wall and tell you to turn the Bump down.
There are actually two volume settings, but this is pointless. I call these settings "a little too quiet" and "just right". I always put it on the second setting and, in the rare occasions that's too loud, adjust the volume on the device that's providing the music.
Battery Life
It's a little known fact that speakers require power. More than a keyboard does, even. The Bump has its own li-ion battery, and Aluratek says this is good for 4 hours of use. To me, that seems a bit low. With irregular use, it's lasted me up to two weeks on a single charge, and it seems I've used it for longer than 4 hours over that time.
When the battery charge is up, you need to plug this accessory into a PC's USB port using the the included cable. A little red LED will come on to tell you its charging.
If you want to listen to music from morning to night, you're going to need to plug in the Bump while you're using it. That's not much of a hassle, but it's something audiophiles should be aware of.
I travel a lot, and I often find myself listening to the music and podcasts in hotel rooms. The Aluratek Bump (APS01F) is perfect for this job. It's easily portable but provides the volume and audio quality I need. And at just $20, it's a good deal, too.
If you're tired of the lousy quality of the speakers in your smartphone or tablet, and want something better, I recommend the Bump. It's the best portable speaker I've run across so far.

Back in 2007 I was on Playboy Radio telling everyone the World's only Sex Psychic, me was going to put together a line of products for my clients who come to me for sexual help. The problem was I couldn't find any products I believed in or truly worked.
Then I came across this product the celebrities are using SEX BUTTER. Sex Butter, Bliss and Romance are products created by Bonnie Stein. This line is all organic, natural and works for dis-ease as well as enhancing pleasure. It helps men and women.
Bliss is a product a celebrity client and friend is using for screen testing to help her book the jobs she wants and she's in love with the Sex Butter for more than one use.
Without sex we don't exist and can't survive. It's how we show one aspect of love, but it is also how we keep our species alive! It's an important part of life, so don't you think you should be having the best sex possible?

Music Critic: Goher Iqbal Punn
Film Producer: Burmawalla Bros (Abbas-Mustan)
Director: Abbas-Mustan
Starring: Abhishek Bachchan, Sonam Kapoor, Bobby Deol, Bipasha Basu and Neil Nitin Mukesh
Music: Pritam
Lyricist: Ashish Pandit
Audio: T-Series
The men in white, Abbas-Mustan always allure the audiences with their movies. Their films are awaited hugely. Since the movies of this duo are laced with suspense thriller and swathed with lavish sets and international feel, the moviegoers would love to give them a wait. Well, the same is wait is being given to the upcoming Players by the audiences. The music of the film has been released and T-Series is behind the audio rights of the album. Pritam has once again composed the score, as he last had given to Abbas-Mustan's Race, now he returns with the latest 'Players'. Lyrics have been written by Ashish Pandit. Let's check out the soundtrack's worth now.
Jis Jagah Pe Khatam (Singers: Neeraj Shridhar, Siddharth Basrur and Mauli)
The soundtrack begins with a super electro song that spells magic with the souls. All the vocalists Neeraj, Siddharth and Mauli catch the rhythm perfectly to allure the ears. The lyrics are well written and the music is boisterous.
Rating: 4/5
Jis Jagah Pe Khatam – Remix
This one is fast paced but nonetheless holds much attention and the listener would love to hear it till the last.
Rating: 3.5/5
Jhoom Jhoom Ta Ja (Singer: Ritu Pathak)
Next song on the album cover is the one that has European touch and feel to lure the thirsty souls. It can safely be called the best song of the entire soundtrack of Players. Ritu makes it simply mesmerizing adding the flavours of Italian and Spanish for the true pleasures. Lyrics wise and musically, the song is a big joyous blast.
Rating: 4.5/5
Jhoom Jhoom Ta Hun Main (Singer: Siddharth Basrur)
Siddharth sings the second version. Although the guy raises the voice to goo level, but he does not have the magic what delivered by Ritu in previous version.
Rating: 2.5/5
Jhoom Jhoom Ta Hun Main (Film Version) (Singer: Arijit Singh)
Following next is the film version that is laced with the techno beats. Arijit loots the hearts with his marvelous singing. You would love to go for the repeat button as you must have done with Ritu's version.
Rating: 4/5
Ho Gayi Tun (Singers: Yashita Yashpal and Bob)
This one song is simply dreary with monotonous effects. The robotics vibes disturb the ears. Yashita irks the ears and souls. Bob's rap is a big lackluster. Lyrics are music both are big failures.
Rating: 1/5
Buddhi Do Bhagwaan (Charlies Song) (Singers: Shruti Pathak and Url)
Shruti is appealing with her rendition and the rapping of URL is apt for Abhishek, as when you hear you start feeling as if Abhishek himself is singing. Lyrics and music both hold values.
Rating: 3.5/5
Dil Ye Bekarar Kyun Hai (Singers: Mohit Chauhan and Shreya Ghoshal)
So far in the album, there is no romantic song thus the need is fulfilled by Dil Ye sung supremely classy by Mohit Chauhan and Shreya Ghoshal. Both simply inject the spongy pleasures in the ears. Lyrics are masterpiece and composition is a magic.
Rating: 4.5/5
Dil Ye Bekarar Kyun Hai (Reprise) (Singers: Nikhil D'Souza and Priyani Vani)
There is a second version – that is appealing but appears slightly fast than the original one but you love to hear it.
Rating: 3/5
Dil Ye Bekarar Kyun Hai (Remix) (Singers: Mohit Chauhan and Shreya Ghoshal)
Next version of this song is a remix that is a big lifeless piece to avoid at once.
Rating: 2.5/5
Despite a few pleasure-disturbing tracks, overall album is a class to hear. The songs like Dil Ye Bekarar and Jhoom Jhoom Ta are the picks of the lot.
Overall Rating: 3.5/5
