I bought this for my daughter in law, who travels a lot and is therefore in her car for hours at a time. She hasn't been on a long trip yet, but has the cushion in her car and enjoys it on a daily basis. So far, she is very pleased with it.

My friend from college (51 years ago!) was having back problems and a hard time driving the two hours each way to see her mother in a nursing home. I scoured the Internet looking for something to help ease her back pain as she drove and came upon your heated massage cushion. I didn't know your company and prayed you were legit. I spoke with a lovely lady, Holly, who assisted me and sent the cushion off. My friend excitedly called me the minute she received it, said she'd tried it out and was almost in tears she was so happy with it. She uses it in her chair at home and takes it to the car when she's driving. She was afraid I'd spent a few hundred dollars for it because of its many features of heat and levels of massage. She's thanked me many times and tells me what a difference it's made for her and how it has relieved her back and made driving so much easier. I am so grateful to you for your wonderful staff, for being so honest and for having this marvelous product. Sincerely, Peggy

Anchorage, Alaska for Babies
Know Before You Go
Printer-Friendly Version- At a Glance
Alaska is known as America's last frontier, and for good reason: It's wild. Really wild. With 14 major mountain ranges and nearly 34,000 miles of coastline, huge parts of the state can be reached only by boat or plane. Anchorage is Alaska's largest city, but never lost its wilderness roots. It's entirely possible to encounter a moose or beluga whale on your way to dinner. It's a great jumping off point for excursions by car or train to Kenai and Denali National Parks -- paradise for adventurous families.

High Tech Upgrades for Traffic Lights in Lansdale
Lansdale officials want to bring the traffic lights of the borough into the 21st century. They've won a $216,000 state grant that will be used to replace the existing copper wire interconnecting the signals with state-of-the-art fiber optic cable. Borough officials say the new network will streamline traffic moving through Lansdale during an emergency. It will also connect borough buildings, electric substations and sewer pump stations as well as allow for live streaming video cameras out on the street.
Montco Finances Remain on the Mend
The Montgomery County Commissioners say their finances continue to move in the right direction. They received a report yesterday that projects a $2,600,000 operating surplus at the end of this year. Chief Financial Officer Uri Monson also told them almost $846,000 was transferred into the employee pension fund last month. Expenses for this year are generally in line with the 2013 budget but going forward the potential exists for several hundred thousand dollars in revenue shortfalls because of the federal sequester.

Washington • The fierce Republican opposition to President Barack Obama's nomination of Chuck Hagel to be defense secretary is personal and business.
The nasty fight long has been seen as a proxy for the never-ending scuffles between the Democratic president and congressional Republicans, with barely any reservoir of good will between the White House and lawmakers, and the GOP still smarting over the November election results.
Join the Discussion | |
Post a Comment |
Barring any surprises, the drawn-out battle over Hagel's nomination probably will end this coming week with his Senate confirmation. But his fellow Republicans have roughed him up.
A vote is expected on Tuesday.
In the weeks after Obama secured a second term, Republicans knocked out a presidential favorite, U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice, and dashed her secretary of state hopes over her widely debunked remarks about protests precipitating the assault on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Libya on Sept. 11.
Emboldened Republicans then set their sights on Hagel, whose GOP classification won him no points with the party.
The former two-term Nebraska senator was widely viewed as a political heretic. He disagreed with President George W. Bush over the Iraq war, stayed on the sidelines in the 2008 president race between Obama and the Republican nominee, Arizona Sen. John McCain, and endorsed fellow Vietnam veteran and former Democratic Sen. Bob Kerrey in last year's Nebraska Senate race.
Republicans remember it well.
"There's a lot of ill will toward Sen. Hagel because when he was a Republican, he attacked President Bush mercilessly, at one point said he was the worst president since Herbert Hoover, said the surge (of U.S. troops in Iraq) was the worst blunder since the Vietnam War, which is nonsense, and was anti-his own party and people," McCain said in an interview on Fox News on the day Republicans stalled Hagel's nomination.
Hagel didn't help his cause with his past opposition to unilateral penalties against Iran, his comment about the influence of the "Jewish lobby" in Washington, his support for reducing the nation's nuclear arsenal and remarks that created widespread doubts about his backing for Israel.

His halting and uneven performance at his confirmation hearing also hurt his nomination.
McCain, one of Hagel's friends during their years in the Senate, would have been a crucial vote to help sway other Republicans to back the nominee. Instead, he is one of more than a dozen opposing Hagel.
"I think he will have been weakened, but having said that, the job that he has is too important," McCain told reporters Friday during a visit to Mexico. "I know that I and my other colleagues, if he's confirmed, and he very likely will be, will do everything we can to work with him."
The nomination fight also is about the business of re-electing Republicans in 2014. Challenging the Democratic president over his nominations and policies is clearly a winner with the conservative base, a point not lost on GOP incumbents wary of challenges from the tea party.
South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, who's up for re-election next year, is getting high marks from Republicans for his relentless effort to get more information about the Sept. 11 attack in Benghazi, Libya, and his fierce opposition to Hagel.
"Most people down here think he's dead-on in his arguments and hope that he continues to press the issues," said Warren Tompkins, a longtime GOP strategist.
The Libya attack that killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans has been a political flashpoint for Republicans who accused the Obama administration of an election-year cover-up of a terrorist assault.
An independent review conducted by respected former diplomats failed to mollify the GOP, who demanded testimony from Hillary Rodham Clinton, secretary of state when the attack occurred, and Defense Secretary Leon Panetta.
Graham has been at the forefront in seeking emails, communiques and videos while threatening to delay both Hagel's nomination and that of CIA Director-nominee John Brennan, who also has become entangled in the Libya dispute.
During a stop in Easley, S.C., this past week, Graham insisted that his effort has nothing to do with politics.
"It's not because he's a Democrat and I'm a Republican," he said, referring to Obama. "It's because it really was system failure and we need learn from it. We have not gotten the information, and we're going to get it if I have to die trying."
The White House has agreed to give the Senate Intelligence Committee additional documents related to the Benghazi attack, according to a congressional aide said. The material includes emails between national security officials showing the debate within the administration over how to describe the attack.
Graham also has been intense in opposing Hagel, portraying the former GOP senator as an out-of-the-mainstream radical. Some of the toughest questions of Hagel during his confirmation hearing last month came from Graham, who seized on Hagel's "Jewish lobby" remark and asked him to "name one dumb thing we've been goaded into doing due to pressure by the Israeli, Jewish lobby."

Watching Hawk and Coleman now.
NFL -- Am I the only one who cheers for the team with the most former Buckeyes?
When I played Fantasy Football, quite a few years ago, 1998 and 1999, my method was simple: pick players from the BigTen first, whom I was familiar with, and then go after players from the SEC and PAC 10.
I won the first year I played, and placed 2nd, the second year. Not too shabby a methodology, wouldn't you say?
"Political correctness is tyranny with manners." Charlton Heston(1924-2008)
It was hard rooting against the Rams yesterday when they were on defense knowing that their starting LB corps is all Buckeyes. But I love my Arizona Cardinals. Too bad Beanie was out. He and Little aaninal were fun to watch bang heads last year.
"We have a quarterback, obviously, that's kind of ridiculous running the ball." - Urban Meyer
I can't believe AJ Hawk didn't play a single play on defense yesterday against the Eagles. He only played on special teams and had 1 tackle! I am sure he will be gone after the year. How about a Hawk, Carpenter and Schlegel reunion?
"Anything easy ain't worth a damn." - Woody Hayes

Love is a battlefield
Benedict Cumberbatch is torn between two women in 'Parade's End'
- Last Updated: 11:49 PM, February 23, 2013
- Posted: 10:39 PM, February 23, 2013
If you think war is hell, try the battlefield of marriage. That's the dynamic behind the HBO miniseries "Parade's End." The period, Edwardian England (with a sidetrip to the trenches of France during World War I), could not be more popular, as evidenced by "Downton Abbey." The five-hour "Parade" has everything fans love about "Downton": the observation and breach of manners and morals played out against the backdrop of history. And let's not forget the costumes. The Tom Stoppard adaptation of the Ford Madox Ford novel ran last year on the BBC has a darker tone than the Julian Fellowes soap and adds another jewel in the acting crown of rising star Benedict Cumberbatch, who played a gay spy in "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy" before going to on to hit his stride in the "Sherlock" miniseries, for which he was nominated for an Emmy last year.
Cumberbatch has his most complex role to date. Christopher Tietjens is an antique aristocrat, a truly decent chap who wears his diffidence on his sleeve and would rather be mocked, humiliated and made a figure of scandal rather than appear disloyal or otherwise defend himself in a cheap and bitter world. British actress Rebecca Hall, who was stuck having to make criminal Southie Ben Affleck seem worth her intelligence in "The Town," is delectably repellent as Christopher's wife, Sylvia, a gorgeous snake whose condescension and self-regard know no limits and whose annoying sing-song inflections would drive a man less controlled than Christopher to strangulation.
The only hope Christopher has for happiness is fetching suffragette Valentine Wannop, a well-meaning idealist whose name is freighted with enough meaning to set off literary smoke alarms. She is played by Australian actress Adelaide Clemens, who was so taken with Stoppard's script that she flew herself on her own nickel to London from LA to audition and showed up in an Edwardian costume.
The story kicks off with Christopher's biggest mistake — his marriage to social-climbing Sylvia, though she is carrying another man's baby. Despite her constant flirting, and an extramarital liaison she conducts in France, Christopher resolves to remain faithful; his very decency is torture.
"She's desperate to get a reaction out of him. If he flared up and told her she was a bitch, that would be something," says director Susanna White. "In being so honorable, it's unbearable."
A chance encounter with Valentine promises a more sincere connection but being a gentleman, Christopher doesn't act on it.

As you may be aware, college applications for private schools are due in January. For me and the three schools I'm applying to using the Common App, January 1st is the golden day. After that, I'm free as a bird (until my second semester starts in mid-January.)
But until then, I'm editing and re-editing my personal statement and several other essays. My personal statement talks about how blogging shaped me into a stronger person especially concerning my very first blog and the trolls on it.
So, since I'm doing my personal statement on blogging, maybe someone will want to read it and tell me what they think? Even if you haven't applied or gone to college, I would still love some feedback.
It would be very much appreciated and I shall give everyone who gives me their opinion virtual hugs.

Five Questions for Dec. 1, 2012: Candyce Robenstein
Candyce Robenstein is the volunteer coordinator for the Festival of Trees at Saratoga Springs City Center.
Q Tell us about the Festival of Trees.
A This is our 17th year. All proceeds benefit Catholic Charities, which helps less fortunate people in Saratoga, Warren and Washington counties with everything from food supplies to rent and utility bills.
Q How many volunteers do you oversee?
A We probably have about 250 volunteers who make this event possible. They do all kinds of jobs — selling trees, taking admission, raffles, staffing the holiday shop.
Q When is the festival?
A It opened to the public Thursday and continues through Sunday. Hours are from 8 a.m.-6 p.m. today and from 2-6 p.m. Sunday. On Saturday, there are three Breakfasts with Santa — at 8, 9:30 and 11 a.m. — plus Ice Cream with Santa at 1 p.m. For tickets, people must contact Catholic Charities.
Q Are the trees judged?
A Yes, they're all beautiful. Sponsors, primarily local businesses, pay to have a tree decorated. Then anyone from the public may purchase a tree during the festival. Judging is in two categories, table trees and the larger floor trees. There are several different awards in both groups such as Best in Show and Best Use of Color. One tree has already sold for $400. Volunteers deliver the fully decorated trees to whoever buys them, after the show. During the show, people may also purchase wreaths and other Christmas decorations.
Q Does it take a long time to plan the festival? Continued...
A Yes. We'll start on next year's right after this one is over. I start calling volunteers in October to see who's available, what times they can work and what jobs they can do. It's a big undertaking.

Itinerary of my First Trip to Italy – Part 2
On the second day of the trip we visited an amazing church high on a mountain built in a place that would seem to be the most unbuildable site immaginable.
The church is Santuario Madonna de la Corona. Click on the link here to see some photos and a brief description of Santuario Madonna de la Corona.
We all loved this sanctuary and it had a very holy feeling.
And let me tell you that we really got a workout that was a lot more interesting than using a stairmaster getting up there and back again. It was quite a hike. But really worth it.
And here's a quick You Tube video to give you a good idea of the location - truly amazing.

The Winter's Tale
nytheatre.com review by Stan Richardson
November 3, 2005
In The Winter's Tale, Shakespeare has provided some intriguing challenges for whichever collective of artists mean to undertake the project. Three such challenges are (in increasing order of difficulty, by my estimation at least): fantastical stage effects (a man eaten by a bear; a statue turning into a live woman); a curious mix of styles (the first half is Lear-like tragedy, whilst the second portrays a kind of frivolity that would make Twelfth Night look bleak); and a protagonist whose initial behavior is such that any actor would be hard-pressed to make the character sympathetic. Propeller, the British all-male Shakespeare troupe led by Edward Hall, does an exceptional job with the former two, but this last problem remains.... well…. problematic.
The unsympathetic behavior to which I am referring is this: King Leontes of Sicilia, ensconced at home and surrounded by loved ones, is struck with the sudden suspicion that his queen Hermione has had or plans to have adulterous relations with Polixenes, the king of Bohemia (and Leontes's dearest friend). The seed of this rapidly blossoming sexual jealousy is an innocuous exchange between Hermione and Polixenes in which she politely implores him to stay a week longer rather than depart the following day. In short order, Leontes devises an ultimately unsuccessful plan to poison Polixenes and then brings Hermione to trial for her supposed crime. Despite very convincing pleas by his subjects (most notably a nervy noblewoman named Paulina, whom we'll return to shortly), and even a note from the Oracle exonerating the queen, Leontes will not be swayed. Moments after he pronounces the Oracle invalid, a servant announces that his young son Mamillius has been found dead and Hermione dies instantly of a broken heart.
As noted above, the second half is sunny and droll: set in Bohemia 16 years later, and centering around Polixenes's son who has fallen for a young shepherdess, Perdita, much to the king's angered dismay. Little do they—or she, for that matter—know that she is the daughter of Leontes and Hermione, who was whisked off to the neighboring kingdom as an infant just after her mother's death. (Her rescuer, by the way, is the one who is eaten by a bear.) The young lovers flee, ending up in Sicilia where a remorseful King Leontes recognizes Perdita as his daughter, the two kings reunite as friends, and a stone statue of Hermione comes to life and the two presumably resume their marriage with a renewed appreciation and sense of gravity.
Propeller works as a true corps: they skillfully accomplish the fantastical elements of The Winter's Tale, but really throughout they simultaneously create and populate a world with a witty and theatrical naturalism. They make whole these two halves—the heavy tragedy and light comedy; they make it seamless, in fact. And, with a powerful performance by Vince Leigh as Leontes, do their very best to make human (and therefore, compelling) both his horrific misjudgment and his deep need of redemption.
But this is where even a superb company such as Propeller (whose performers are, across the board, exquisite) cannot make me feel a genuine empathy (only an intellectual sympathy) for this tragic figure. Sexual jealousy is certainly not without my realm of personal experience, but I never felt myself on Leontes's side the way that I do with Lear, who too makes his deeply unwise decision within the first ten minutes of stage time. Perhaps this is a part of Hall's intention—for us to watch the irrational actions of a foolish but powerful man motivated by something quite other than the good of his kingdom, to the kingdom's severe detriment. (Should I now point out the somewhat crude but rather obvious parallels to our current leader and those darned elusive WMDs?)
However, we do not feel an absence. With the help of a bravura performance by Adam Levy, Hall has relocated the center of the play from Leontes to Paulina, that fireball of a lady who staunchly defends the honor of her queen. Levy's fierce creature is strong-willed without being self-righteous, and indeed seems surprised by her own ferociousness. I was most moved seeing her with the king 16 years later, reminding him (with gentle frankness) of his lamentable decision. She is the torchbearer who will not let this tragedy recede into darkness, and the king, brimming with contrition, appreciates her for this.
Just as she has sculpted the statue that will be brought to life, so Paulina brings out the humanity in Leontes, ultimately transforming him into a man for whom we can find some approximation of respect. Would that all "kings" would keep such wise counsel.

The Australian developer in question is Nathan de Vries, who has published his detective work in a blog post, one that I fully recommend you read for all the details that he went through.
To give the short version, de Vries debugged and disassembled his way through Apple's iAds private API framework until he came up with a standard web view object that could make use of WebGL.
Some folks at the Copenhagen Institute of Interaction Design have jumped on the findings and created a WebGL-enabled browser that is linked below:
The real question remaining is: how long it will be until WebGL is available throughout iOS without hacks such as this?
Anyone care to wager when the black box known as Apple chooses to release this feature to salivating masses?

You could, of course, follow my PhD thesis and prove a general result about a class of systems and limit yourself to that class of system. You can even write frameworks which make it almost impossible to do anything else. (I could say more but wont.)
Unfortunately whatever you do there is the problem of arguing that the kernel code corresponds to the process calculus or has the things your general proof required.
99.98% of the time concurrency just adds locking and context switches and therefore reduces system performance. The best approach the other 0.02% of the time is a more difficult question.

R.I.P. Amy Winehouse, 27
It's been two days since the news of Amy Winehouse's death, and I'm still trying to wrap my head around it all. While Twitter and Facebook feeds filled with appreciations and ugly jokes (did you hear the one about "Rehab"?), I returned to Back to Black, her second and best album, to remember the gifted and troubled singer.

Size: 30E
Very supportive and comfy. The band is a bit wider than usual, but still comfortable, cups fit great. My only gripe about Le Mystere bras is that they only come in black or nude. Whatever happened to fun colors?! Kiena from NY
Size: 30E
I really like this bra! It looks very nice under sweaters, however, under a T-shirt one of the seams shows just a bit. I have purchased a 2nd one in the nude color and look forward to receiving it as well. Laura

This is a super sexy and comfortable bra.... It holds the girls in place without falling out... It is my absolute favorite bra! Kristen from NC
Size: 36F
Beautiful bra. My husband thinks it's pretty nice too. :) I love it. It is very comfortable. I like that it doesn't make my large breasts look even bigger. There is a little padding, but not too much. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars, is because the cups need to extend a little higher. More coverage would be nice. When I bend over my breasts try to come out of the cups and I have to readjust when I stand up. Still, I'll probably order another. :) Kim from Houston/TX
Size: 34E
Runs a tad small. Did not like the very wide back strap. janine from mill valley/ca

More Than 60 Companies Voluntarily Adopt Annual Shareowner Votes on Executive Compensation
by Robert Kropp
Companies adopting say-on-pay include many in the financial industries, and all TARP recipients mandated to do so last year; in the absence of legislation or regulations, activist shareowners file more than 70 resolutions on the issue this year.
SocialFunds.com -- The adoption by companies of policies allowing annual shareowner votes on executive compensation, or say-on-pay, has been a hotly contested issue, especially in recent years, as links between excessive risk-taking by financial institutions and excessive executive compensation have been decisively outlined by social investors and shareowner activists alike. That the Obama administration made it a requirement of companies receiving funds through the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) to provide an annual shareowner vote on say-on-pay underscores the validity of those links in the eyes of regulators.
A recent
press release
, issued jointly by
Walden Asset Management
and the
American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME)
, illustrates further the mainstream acceptance of say-on-pay. According to the release, %147More than 50 companies have now voluntarily adopted giving their shareholders an annual advisory vote on executive compensation.%148
Timothy Smith, Senior Vice President of the Environment, Social and Governance Group at Walden Asset Management, told SocialFunds.com, %147The number of companies that have adopted say-on-pay has grown since the announcement, to more than 60.%148
The companies that have voluntarily adopted say-on-pay include many financial institutions, which have come under increasing scrutiny for their compensation policies in the aftermath of the financial crisis, especially given the widespread outrage expressed in response to reports that many TARP recipients intended to return to their pre-crisis policies of awarding bonuses that many regard as outrageously high.
%147With all the pressure now on Wall Street for reasonable pay, adopting say-on-pay policies does not seem an unreasonable request,%148 Smith said.
He continued, %147Many of these financial companies had to allow a vote last year, because they were TARP recipients, and simply agreed to continue it this year. I don%146t know of any TARP recipients that are not adopting say-on-pay resolutions this year.%148
Noting in a January
to financial companies that %147approximately 40 companies to date, have voluntarily adopted the advisory vote on executive compensation,%148 Smith and the letter%146s other signatories described shareowner advisory votes on executive compensation as %147a timely and needed corporate governance reform,%148 specifically urging Bank of America, a TARP funds recipient, to adopt the measure. The recent press release from Walden and AFSCME indicates that Bank of America has indeed voluntarily adopted an annual advisory vote on executive compensation.
Regarding the increase in voluntary adoption of the measure%151in 2008, six companies adopted it, and in 2009 the number rose to 19%151Smith said, %147I don%146t want to overstate the impact of shareholder input. Everybody is watching this issue, and companies that adopt are getting ahead of the curve.%148 But, he added, %147Shareholder input and pressure are very important for defining the issue for the company. Seventy-five resolutions were filed last year, and most companies are doing it now because they%146ve been asked to by shareholders.%148
Smith said that of all the financial companies contacted about the issue, every TARP recipient has agreed to shareowner advisory votes on executive compensation. The only financial company currently opposing such a request is Waddell & Reed Financial, where average total annual compensation for four of the five top executives increased by 25% in 2009, while the company%146s net income increased by only 9.7%. The shareowner resolution that Waddell & Reed is opposing was filed by
Boston Common Asset Management
The resolution filed by Boston Common Asset Management quoted a 2009 report from the
Conference Board Task Force on Executive Compensation
, which stated that %147in order to restore trust in the ability of boards to oversee executive compensation,%148 compensation programs which are %147transparent, understandable and effectively communicated to shareholders%148 should be adopted.
%147In the absence of legislation or regulations mandating a market wide rule,%148 the press release from Walden stated, %147The investor coalition announced the filing of additional Say on Pay shareholder proposals at more than 70 US corporations for 2010 votes.%148 In 2009, the 75 resolutions gained more than 46% support, with 24 majority votes.
The marked shift in the approach to shareowner resolutions by the Securities and Exchange Commission under Obama appointee Mary Schapiro has helped the cause of advocates for say-on-pay and other important corporate governance issues. Unlike the SEC under the Bush administration, whose Division of Corporation Finance routinely disallowed shareowner resolutions on the grounds of ordinary business exceptions, the SEC under Schapiro has been consistent in its support for the interests of investors.
%147There are a few companies that are fighting vigorously against the right of shareholders to put the issue up for proxy vote,%148 Smith said, %147And they%146ve gone to the SEC to try to get the resolution omitted. One such company is EMC, the computer company, which is fighting a resolution filed by the Unitarians.%148
%147A bright side is we%146re winning the challenges at the SEC,%148 Smith continued. %147A number have been ruled on and we%146ve been successful in every case.%148
Progress on the legislative front is less clear at present. Legislative efforts to mandate say-on-pay passed the House of Representatives last year, and Sen. Charles Schumer of New York introduced a
Shareholder Bill of Rights Act
for consideration by the Senate.
By now, however, many of the proposals in Schumer%146s proposed legislation have been dropped by the Senate Banking Committee in its deliberation on financial overhaul legislation. A
sent to Sen. Christopher Dodd, Chairman of the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Development, urged the Committee to retain three essential components of corporate governance in its draft legislation.
In the letter, Lisa Woll, CEO of the
Social Investment Forum (SIF)
, urged the Committee to support the authority of the SEC to go forward with proxy access, which would allow shareowners to nominate directors. She also urged support for a majority voting standard for the election of directors, as well as annual advisory votes on executive compensation.
The challenge to adoption by the Senate of meaningful financial reform that will take into consideration the rights of shareowners was highlighted by a remark made by Republican Sen. Judd Gregg of New Hampshire, who described the shareowner provisions of the proposed legislations as %147classic socialist industrial policy, which seems to be the basic mindset of some of my colleagues these days around here that don't believe in markets, capitalism, profit, or individual entrepreneurships.%148
However, as Smith told SocialFunds.com, %147Shareholder votes on say-on-pay are not going to go away as an issue.%148

UF Keeps Pace With Industry In The Science Of Growing Grass
GAINESVILLE—Used to be, if you wanted to manage a golf course, all you needed to know was how high to mow and when to turn on the sprinklers.
GAINESVILLE—Used to be, if you wanted to manage a golf course, all you needed to know was how high to mow and when to turn on the sprinklers.
GAINESVILLE — On the floor of a steamy Asian forest, a woody plant destined for immortality was thriving among the dragonflies and dinosaurs when a nearby volcano erupted and left it buried in ash.
BRADENTON—The pumpkin pie of Thanksgiving future may come out of Don Maynard's research laboratory.
GAINESVILLE — New research from the University of Florida shows less than one-third of those who know about the state's new Truth youth anti-smoking campaign think it will cause youth smoking to decline. The university hopes its research results will help the state combat youth smoking more effectively.
GAINESVILLE — A dramatic rebound on Wall Street and satisfaction with the November elections led to a pronounced turnaround in consumer confidence among Floridians this month, bucking the normal year-end pattern and raising optimism of a good holiday shopping season for retailers, University of Florida economists say.
GAINESVILLE — To make money this holiday season, retailers should be more lenient in accepting returned merchandise from the growing number of long-distance customers who buy from catalogs or the Internet, a new University of Florida study suggests.
GAINESVILLE — Employee theft, shoplifting, administrative error and vendor fraud continue to rob the nation's retailers of billions of dollars, this loss translates into higher consumer prices and cost the nation's retailers nearly $26 billion annually, according to the just-released 1998 National Retail Security Survey.
GAINESVILLE A dramatic shift in the demographics of Florida's private forest landowners indicates the traditional farmer may be giving way to the more white-collar, absentee landowner, according to a recent University of Florida survey.

A college use two different textbooks during the last semester. During last semester 0.7 students used the text book by Professor B. and 0.3 students use the textbook by professor P. A survey at the end of the last semester showed that 0.4 of students who used Professor B. book were satisfied and 0.8 of students who used Professor P. were satisfied. If a student randomly selected and claims to have been satisfied with the text, what is the probability the student used Professor P. class ?
P(Satisfied and ProfP) = 0.3 * 0.8 = 0.24
That's the probability that a student has P's textbook and was satisfied, but that isn't the probability that a student that is chosen who is satisfied is using P's textbook, they're different.
You want the conditional probability, given that he is satisfied, that he used P's book.
P(P|S) = P(PintersectS) / P(S)
P(PintersectS)=.3*.8 = .24
.24 / .8 = .30
I think.

Just to clarify the issue, approving this bond will not cause taxes to rise. The likelihood is that taxes will decrease.

My first real post. Any updates on Ar**a in u$%oor? This is the only place I have been to. There used to be a st33l@ there that I really liked. Any idea where she is?
Heard from a friend that there is a thai female called Ana at V-- ele---@Doml------Heard he managed a HJ there after many visits and a bar of foreign chocolates after each visit.Claims she is a good looker, but one has to have patients for this one as the spa is high end and foreign chocos may not work for every one.Cant independently verify this though.
went to BS few days back and chose the same gal L***a for a b*b massage.
all went fine ....good co operation....etc. but slowly i see her getting more and more nagging with money.
may be this is the downside of going to the same gal for 'n'th time.
so have decided to try some other gals.
heard there is a new gal p**k*e has come threre. anyone tried ??
also...am planning to try P***d*se. if anyone been there recently, pl share ur feedback and any good picks there.
Anybody tried the Russian @ BS? Have only heard abt it.. I think they would be available for 5.5k there??
H*m**t took me to killer room & said that's for Russian service -11k??!!! Any rus experience there???
I've tried P****m & P**p** there.. Detailed FRs posted. Whom to go for next? L**** showed some attitude last time.. so didnt choose her
Ch****a is good enough?
@ Cyanide: Who's this new girl p**k**?? any good review?
plz do not vist
i wasted my time over there only fat looking ugly village kanadigas wth cheap make up r available..only lorry drivers go there..its cheap old house..dont waste ur time...its near b*nl office in*ira n*gar
i have visited two times..i walked away dissapointed n yelld at her a mallu aunty fr telling lie on the phone
@noobspadax bs always have two russians..tas wt i was told..i have visted more than 10 times evrytime i vist russians r always bsy..need to take prior appointmnts for them..evn though they r expensive..their ne collections r always better compared to other parlours.. soo my wild guess is russians should look prety good...otherwise y would they get bsy all the time...nobody has ever wrote FR regarding russian service in bs...hopefully somone will write a detailed FR....
play safe
Terribly 'in the mood' today! BS Or P@****53 on the agenda. Unless someone can recommend a good spa for specials with good lookers?

Went for girl selection.. new ones weren't good. Was about to select P****m again, but he recommended another short NE girl (bit plump).
He hyped a lot saying she offers good service.. So i said okay.
BAD SERVICE. doesnt do FS. She asked for 1k extra for FN .. tryed to negotiate. didnt work. agreed for 1k. She wanted money upfront.. i didnt want to spoil her mood, so gave it
What followed was a Sloppy Massage.. & Not much action after going nude. She said she's married!! :O Only HJ & nothing else!! Got damn pissed. Cum after some time & left!
Pissed with H****t for lying!!!
Massage: 3/10

Well it would seem that I will also not be getting the bundle that I have been waiting for all this time. Supposedly they ran out and to compensate for it they are sending me the cd/dvd free and 10% off an item from the store. I would think that anyone else that hasn't received their copy yet will probably learn this news as well. I'm disappointed especially after having waited all this time. I better get a refund and the cd/dvd soon.
