A unique concept most beginners have trouble grasping about the Verilog, and now the SystemVerilog, Hardware Description Language (HDL) is the difference between wire's (networks) and reg's (variables). This concept is something that every experienced RTL designer should be familiar with, but there are now many verification engineers with no prior Verilog experience trying to pick up SystemVerilog … Read More

I don't know about you but I read. A lot… It's almost as if I've got an unquenchable thirst for information. It all started when I was 6 during a school break. I was bored and pestered my mom one too many times. In those pre-Nintendo days, she unceremoniously dumped me in my father's study and told me to read a book. I couldn't reach most of the books on the shelves but my oldest sister had left her … Read More

Unbelieveable! Don't get me wrong, it is not the fact that pop-up ads appear all over commercial websites that annoys me; after all, we have had the same thing in magazines and newspapers for many years.

The issue starts with the difference between … Read More

For a minute or so, it sounded as though they had lost their nerve.
There was better than a hint that, this time, a Scottish Government was not averse to a British solution to the problem, with London bearing the burden of controversy. Given legislative timetables and the nuances of existing law, that could yet be the effective result. But never mind.

Historical Traveler Reviews Miramar Hotel Honolulu
Great Stay at the Miramar
My husband and I spent two weeks at the Miramar from the middle to end of January 2004. It was our first time at this hotel and we will definitely stay there again. We had booked a superior room (includes wonderful free breakfast buffet) and upon checking in, found they had upgraded us to a deluxe room. The room was a good size, clean and comfortable, with a lanai overlooking the pool area.
We loved the location next to the International Marketplace and just a short walk to the beach. There was a lot to see and do all within walking distance. We could also catch The Bus directly across the street if we wanted to go a little further and tour pickups were right in front of our hotel.
I would certainly recommend the Miramar and can't wait for our next trip back!!
Geri C.
Reasonable and great location
My wife and I spent 10 days from 12/13 through 12/23/03. No frills, clean, very good breakfast buffet daily. Center of action in Waikiki.
Plenty of shopping, restaurants, one block from beach, lots to see and do. They upgraded us to an ocean view on the 17th. floor. I would go back there again.
Loved the Hotel
I have stayed here both times I have been to Waikiki and I have been very pleased both times. The food is great and the front desk personnel are always friendly and willing to help you in any way. The rooms are clean and the location was perfect, right next to the international market only a couple footsteps away from the beach. I definently recommend this hotel.
Our Home in the Islands
We have stayed at this hotel twice a year for the last 20 years. And we LOVE IT. Great location, hotel has just been completely remodeled, and the nicest staff around. We have stayed at all of the expensive hotels, and we always come back to the Miramar. We call it our home in the islands. Thanks and Love to all of the staff, at our home in the islands.Linda & Pete
Great Hotel !
I stayed at the Miramar twice already (1995 and 2002). It has a great location, clean rooms, really good service, friendly people at the front desk, a nice pool, and a very satisfying breakfast. The second time was for our honeymoon, and we got 2 bottles of champagne instead of one :)We are going back to the Miramar in December 2003.
Loved the Miramar Hotel - Oahu
Visited Oahu July 27 - August 8. Stayed at the Miramar which was a block away from the beach and right next door to the International Market. We chose the Deluxe rooms which gave us a beautiful 180 degree view of the island. The street that the hotel is situated on - Khuio is a lively street. Everything that you would need is within walking distance. We walked to each different restuarant every night. We enjoyed the complimentary breakfast buffet at the hotel every morning.
We expected the usual continental breakfast as other hotels offer but the Mirarar offered a wonderful buffet. The hotel staff were very friendly, the room was cleaned every day. The only surprise we got was the $10 charge for a 1.5 minute call home. Loved the Miramar, loved the island, will definitely go back to the hotel. - Sue R.
A great central location and good for families. The service was lacking. We were travelling with small children and were put in a room with only 2 single beds instead of two double beds as booked.
It was Okay
My Family was looking for a Hotel near the beach and The Breakfast Buffet was a plus. When we got to the Hotel they had the wrong room for us so we had to wait for a room to be cleaned, the view was oaky, the city is pretty at night. We had a prtl ocean view, ( Dont bother, ) If you leaned out the lani you could see the water. There was a charge for the in room Coffee as everything else in Hawaii. Spending money was easy to do, Milk was $7. a gal. Gas was $2.10 a gal. everything was high. The tour guides are trained to milk you for money. There was Hookers out side most Hotels at night, Homeless everywhere. Oh, The Breakfast Buffet, they served Rice, Salad, Pork n beans and spaghetti, But they also had good coffee and scrambled eggs, a little fruit. I would never stay there again, I know now there are better deals. Next time I will go to another Island, Less people. I'm glad I went, it will be my first and last time.
Very Good Deal
My family (2 adults, 3 kids) stayed at the Miramar in July 2003. We had 2 rooms that connected, which was very convenient. The rooms were very clean and neat and room service did a great job. There was not much view of the beach at all, mostly a city view. However, this was not a problem for us, because we were on the go most of the day. Front desk service was excellent at all times. Our package included free breakfast each morning for 2 per room, which was a big savings, and the breakfast buffet was very good. We were just 2 blocks from the beaches, but we prefered to go to the east side of the island for beach time to escape the crowds. There were plenty of fast food and dinner restaurants within walking distance. The pool was nice, and they had a a large pooldeck for sunning and also a counter with drinks and snackfoods for sale. The hotel lobby opened up to the International Market, which was a great place to shop for our souveniers. The only drawback was that the area was extremely busy and a bit noisy at times in the late evening. Miramar is an excellent value - the prices were very good and we would definitely stay there again.
Good deal for the money
I had a great time at this hotel. I was looking for a great deal and got one. The superior room is the way to go ocean view, newly remodel, and a breakfast included. Staff was very friendly and it was just a little walk to the ocean, and the hotel connected to the market place , little stands to buy trinkets. Good deal for the money

The history of the Manor House
A brief history of the building
- From the style of the architecture of the parts of the building and from tree-ring dating of some of the timbers still present, the present house at Donington was probably built between 1288 and 1295.
Who built the house?
- From documentary sources, we know that William le May leased land in Donington from Charley Priory. In 1293, Robert de Herle, from Kirby Muxloe, purchased all of William le Mey's land in Donington. This fits well with the dating evidence from the building so Robert de Herle built the house which is on the site today.
- Ten years later Robert bought more land there from Thomas, son of Robert de Charleye. We also know that Isabella de Herle, Robert's widow was still living in the house in 1332.
- Some of the features of the house along with tree-ring dating of the timbers in the roof, show that the Manor House was heavily modernised in around 1618. It appears that at this time, the downstairs storerooms were converted into a kitchen and a parlour. A new roof was put on and the rooms upstairs were remodelled with a new internal staircase. Externally, the most obvious addition from this period are the large rectangular mullioned windows.
- At this time, the house was probably owned by John Digby, whose elder brother, Everard Digby was a close friend of Guy Fawkes and was executed in 1606 for his part in the Gunpowder Plot. John Digby's daughter, Anna, married Thomas Swinglehurst in 1618 and it is possible that the house was modernised and given to the couple as part of her marriage settlement.
- By 1670, the house and its land had come into the possession of Thomas Harley, a wealthy man whose main landholdings were at Osgathorpe. When he died, he left a provision in his will setting up a charity, the Harley Trust, which then owned the Manor House.
A tenant farm.
- From 1670 to 1960, the Harley Trust rented out the Manor House as a tenant farm. As the charity spent the rents on its work and the tenants could not afford to make major changes to the house, the house remained unchanged, apart for essential maintenance. Luckily for us, that meant that many of the thirteenth and seventeenth century features were left intact.
The pigsty period - 1960 - 1965
- The last tenants left the house in 1960 and it was sold to a local farmer. He then used the building to keep pigs in! Sadly, in this phase, the Manor House was slowly deteriorating. In 1963, the Manor House was scheduled as an ancient monument and in 1965, Leicestershire County Council made the decision to buy the Manor House in order to preserve the building for future generations.
Restoration - 1965 - 1972
- The stabilisation and restoration of the Manor House took about seven years.
- Finally on July 1st 1973, Donington le Heath Manor House was opened to the public as a museum.
- Here are some photographs of the Manor House before, during and after restoration.
The Manor House today
- Today, the Manor House is a thriving museum. Since 1997, visitor figures have increased from 6,700 per year to over 25,000 per year.
- 700 years as a family home. - Here is some information about the families who have lived at Donington over the past seven hundred years.
- McLoughlin, V. Donington le Heath Manor House and its Connection with the Families of Donington and Hugglescote. Produced for the Friends of Donington le Heath, 1999 and 2000.

Eco-Friendly Vehicles & Devices – Cars Excluded
Cars receive most of the attention when speaking about eco-friendly transportation — and rightly so — but there are many other vehicles and devices that aim to reduce emissions with alternative power sources. From two-wheeled transports to landscaping equipment, prepare for the ever-increasing availability of machines fueled by green, sustainable power.
Motorcycle manufacturers are making significant strides in producing green, alternative-fueled bikes. Zero Motorcycles has been accelerating to the top of the electric motorcycle industry with groundbreaking innovations. Zero's 2013 S, powered by the new Z-Force motor, offers the longest range of any e-bike, traveling 137 miles in the city with a top of speed of 95 miles per hour, according to EarthTechling.com. By charging at the CHAdeMO charge stations, Zero motorcycles can be charged to 95 percent in 60 minutes or less.

Lit Motors is peering further down the e-bike pipeline with its innovative C-1 model prototype. The C-1 takes the best parts of a motorcycle and splices them with the safety features of a car. The result is an enclosed two-wheeled vehicle that drives like a car. It can travel 200 miles on a single charge and can hit a top speed of 120 miles per hour, according to The New York Times.
Homeowners underestimate the frightening volume of noxious fumes that gas-powered mowers release into the atmosphere. As an alternative, there exist corded and cordless electric lawnmowers, but some mowers take it a step further. Autonomous mowers like the Husqvarna Automower utilize both solar energy and electricity to mow your lawn. The hybrid's solar panels soak in ultraviolet light on sunny days, but if it needs more juice, the Automower automatically returns to its base station for an electric charge. The installation of a perimeter wire contains the mower from wandering into a neighbor's yards. Of course, if you want the greenest mower available, your best bet is always the push reel mower that's powered solely by you.
Environmentalists usually decry ATVs as wasteful and a blight to the land, but these utility vehicles do serve important functions. Farmers and park rangers rely on ATVs to pull heavy tools and traverse difficult terrain. Electric ATVs are a godsend to rural riders. Electric ATVs are whisper quiet and free of emissions. Owners don't have to fret about replacing oil, fuel filters and spark plugs either. Electric Vehicle System's (EVS) E-Force is one such economical ATV that's applicable in farming, border patrol, park maintenance and of course for recreation. Impressively, it achieves three times the torque of a gas motor, according to ATV.com. Polaris also released one of the first completely electric side-by-sides, the Ranger EV. Polaris claims that their EV has the longest range of any mid-size, electric side-by-side.

Each year, the Presidential Distinguished Rank Awards honor members of the Senior Executive Service for their accomplishments. But this year, one very important group of federal employees was left out. Carol Bonosaro, president of the Senior Executives Association, said she's frustrated that this year's event included no winners from the intelligence community because the White House has yet to approve their nominations. An ODNI official said intelligence community winners will be announced soon.

Please send info on the following: The Orcia Valley Wine Route. Maria Teresa, Delaware, USA.
If you are looking for directions along the Orcia Valley Wine Route, make sure you ask for La Strada del Vino Orcia.
And don't forget that this is one to do by car, or at the very least by bike. We have witnessed pitiful sights of straggly people walking the Val d'Orcia between such towns as Radicofani and Castiglione d'Orcia.
Although the classic Tuscan scenery is stunning, the distances are huge and you will be baked like cotto toscano if you decide to hike it in summer. And how do you keep the wine at the right temperature?

I found this slideshow to be very insightful. I'm pretty sure I read an article documenting these social media personalities in the New York Times a coupe years back but I was unable to find the original source.
I'm sure everyone has friends that fit into each of these categories. I think from a social media marketing perspective this slideshow can really help marketers get to the essence of how their content is being shared, and thus help them cater their content to make it more shareable among the types of people they are targeting.

Living in Thailand simply kicks ass. Normal guys get to shoot their seed into just about any girl they find and most often you can even take photos of her laying in your bed with your sperm dripping out of her snatch. That's pretty much what happened to this sexy girl.
She's not too made up, but has a killer body, nice full tits and a beautiful face.
A prefect breeding specimen.
Of course she gets her Thai pussy filled with baby juice and then she's sent on her way. :-)
If you like how she looks, see the rest of her by clicking here.
The content on ThaiGirlsWild.com is more amateur, but they keep it real with what it's really like when you're screwing Thai girls with no rubbers in cheap hotel rooms during a short time.
While this site isn't 100% creampies, it does have a lot of them. Enough so that it's worth checking out because the guy is a creampie fanatic. The site is also packed with smoking hot girls.

User Review: Kahtoola Microspikes
Price Paid: $53.55 CAD
Excellent product. I have used it in deep snow where boots tend to spin out and they provide good traction. The weight isn't a big concern but I can see if you're a "Minimalist" you might find them a bit heavy. The trade off is worth it.

By mommaJo
from Randall Ia
I enjoy your products, I really enjoyed your first wand you came out with. I liked how I could fulsh it down the toilet. Then you up and changed it and I had to use the heads I have to stick in the trash. Well now I can't even find those. I refuse to buy another wand, that is wasteful when mine work just fine, I have been making my own inserts and using a toilet boil cleaner with them. Please explain why you feel the need to change a good thing? Is it so we have to spend more money and waste more natural resorces? Yes this has angered me. Angered me to the point that I have stopped buying all Clorox products. Might not seem like a big deal except I was going through about 4 tubs of Clorox wipes a month with a husband and a daughter in a wheelchair.

Possible cougar seen in Highland Park
Updated: May 16, 2013 4:47PM
HIGHLAND PARK — The City of Highland Park is alerting residents to a possible cougar sighting on Sunday, Nov. 25 in Old Elm Park, located in the Highlands north of Half Day Road.
A resident reported seeing a large, tan, feline-type animal similar in stature to a cougar walking on the west tree line in the park. Highland Park residents are advised to be alert, especially when outside with children and small pets.
Highland Park police personnel immediately investigated the incident after receiving the report Wednesday, Nov. 28, but did not locate any tracks of other evidence confirming the identification of the animal.
In September, a resident of the 1100 block of Lincoln Avenue South, about two blocks west from Lake Michigan, also reported seeing a possible cougar.
Similar cougar-like sightings were reported in the Village of Glencoe and the Village of Winnetka between April and September but remain unconfirmed at this time.
The Department of Natural Resources (DNR) advises that there are no sustained populations of cougars in Illinois; however, young cougars have been known to pass through the Midwest from their original region in the Black Hills of South Dakota. These animals generally avoid populated areas and may be seeking deer as their primary food source.
Deterrents to these animals include bright, flashing white lights, and loud noise. Residents are encouraged to exercise awareness while outdoors and use caution if an animal fitting the description is observed. Small children and pets should always be supervised when outdoors. Residents are asked to immediately report any sightings of suspicious animals to the Highland Park Police Department at (847) 432-7730. In the case of an emergency, please dial 911.

Great product
posted 5 years ago
My kitties love this food and I can feel really good about giving it to them. It is low ash, high protein, and great for their little kidneys. Because Wysong uses such quality ingredients, I haven't had to worry about problems that have affected other cat food companies.
Pros: Great quality, low ash
Cons: non

Did you?
Was good for my elderly cat with failing kidneys
posted 5 years ago
When my elderly cat was near the end of her life due to kidney problems, this was her preferred dry food. (She also had wet food, but simply liked dry food too much to deprive her of that at that time.) The research I did suggested that the foods requiring a vet's prescription just were not that healthy, despite coming from the vet. I searched for both wet and dry food with lower protein levels since protein taxes the kidneys. I had her try a few varieties, and this was what she liked best.
One advantage I've found is that Wysong is among the less expensive foods when you're looking at natural or premium brands.
I wasn't sure how to answer the questions above since ease of access was just not an issue. But you have to answer all questions, or you can't post your review.
Pros: lower protein levels which helps cats with kidney problems
Cons: should not be only food eaten since it has a low moisture content

As Pete Dohery's Crackie Wail Echoes Through England....
If you're a crackhead on a budget, stand underneath Pete "Dreamboat" Doherty's window tonight with your mouth wide open, because he will definitely be shedding crack-laced tears of sadness over his true love Kate Moss marrying Jamie Hince of The Kills (aka Count Von Count) this afternoon in Southrop, England after being together for 4 years.
Kate apparently wore a dress made by cartoon villain and Hitler pin-up bitch John Galliano. Yeah, those gold things on Kate's dress are the fanciest Swastikas I've ever seen. Later tonight, they'll all chop the dress into fine powder and snort it up. I don't blame them, because judging by these pictures there are a lot of chirruns at that wedding. Why the hell does Kate have so many little girls dressed up as Midsummer Night's Dream nymphs? This isn't Shakespeare in the Park, bitch!
The guest list apparently includes Kanye West, Naomi Campbell, Anna Wintour, Stella McCartney and a bunch of other fashion people. Yeah, so that reception is going to be a blast. The waiters will serve them empty mirrors and they'll all just snarl at each other while poking at the pastel coke balls in plastic swan cups. Sounds fun!

I can't hate on Jaime anymore. I recently got into the Kills and have to say Kate's a lucky girl. Although Kate paying for everything? Ahaha I guess he doesn't have rock star money yet? Yeah right.
She usually looks like she needs a bath, clean clothes and has a rats nest in her hair. So she looks pretty good here.
Apparently Kate pays for EVERYTHING in her relationship with Jamie. She paid for her ring, dress, wedding/reception, his stag night, etc. She also owns the house/s they live in, pays all the bills, etc. Jamie must be wetting himself with sheer glee. Homeboy's got good gold-digging skills. He could teach classes in how to land a rich and famous spouse.
Isn't true love, between a wealthy, well known bride and a parasitic wannabe groom, grand!
I have to admit that she looks really lovely and happy. Which kills me because I am not a fan of hers. I'll show myself out.
If love had a dick I would eff with it. But it doesn't (it has a no crotch like Barbie).
Aw, I dig this. It's what I would expect and it works.
His suit is too tight.
Kate's daughter's a looker. Wow.
He looks stunning. I will search for that YSL-suit, but I want a different colour, more dark to fit my latin skin. Oh, by the way, what's that old coke-snorting hag doing there? She's totally ruining a nice picture of a perfect model in a very hot YSL-suit.

I really, really love the dress -- does that make me a Nazi sympathizer?
As for hubby -- the glasses & cigs aren't the worse part -- look at those pants & shoes!
I like that she only had flower girls instead of bridesmaids. I think it is much sweeter that way.
That is a nice picture...Kate's daughter is adorable...
Kate looks fabulous. I absolutely LOVE the dress (I have a near terminal fetish for beading and embroidery).
I even like the marauding tribe of wood-nymphs she's managed to corral for the event.
Hubby looks like a sack of shit.
Her dress is gorgeous and I like that she wore her hair like that. I think it's so cute that she has little girl bridesmaids instead of adult ones.
That dress is stunning! Not one of those hideous off the shoulder jobs that make women look like linebackers. Isn't he he afraid of stds? I mean this girl has been around the block many times.
I fucking adore her, and he wedding dress is perfect.
Oh EvilPopTart!
<3 <3 to infinity!
Oh ! I see now why sunglasses, thx for linky Angry Secretary!
Um, I have no words but wow, thx for wearing the sunnies!

oh dear lord, he does look like Count Von Count. and apparently he only wears too-tight ladyboy hipster pants. and why is he standing a like first grader that has to pee IN HIS WEDDING PHOTO? also, they're like the same height, and his making his hair like 2 inches high doesn't fix that.
just ugh! she's settling, so sad.

I love Kate, always. This weeding looks beautiful, lol though at the cigarette. Couldn't he have waited a bit, and the sunglasses.<??>
<3 Lucifer Sam!
When you think about how much she parties and stays in the sun, she still looks quite amazing.
I don't know about her mothering skills but I think she's the rare famous person who truly does not give a f*ck what people think about her. She does her own thing. I like her.
His suit ruins the whole damn thing. What a douchebag.
She looks cleaner and healthier than usual. She looks good, actually. And the weather was nice.
Of course, the whole thing will be over in less than a year.
This explains the bloat
Damn girl!

Seriously, why does she bother ever getting married? She's an aging groupie.The English love their-drugged out trainwrecks.
well, congrats kate! and damn, lila is so going to be a heartbreaker when she grows up. she definitely inherited kate's looks.
'We are responsible for what we do unless we are celebrities.'
And I can't help but to wonder if Kate knows which one of those little girls is her daughter?
Kate looks gorgeous. The dress, the hair, everything. They look great and they did the wedding their own style. Could you imagine if she had a fucking french twist and a dress from David's Bridal? Please.

she has the look of someone who would fuck your brains out then have seconds and thirds, then roll over, light a cig in the most deadpan, just-a-regular-night-to-me way and say "yeah, gotta go" and never call you again... *SWOOOONS*
I know, right? She's a beast.
I'm sorry, but count von count makes me laugh. He's old and still desperate to look young. I know he's somewhat successful, but I think he still thinks he's 25 and might one day be a big rock star! He is not Keith Richards, he's every middle aged hipster I see at the grocery store. Poor guy...
Perfection. Great pics.
'Those of you lucky enough to have your lives, take them with you. However, leave the limbs you've lost. They belong to me now'-BK
I LOOOVE that dress and vail!
It's so 20's inspired, I think it's beautiful (not so much the coke ho that's in it though :-(
Say what you want about bat shit crazy Galliano, but he sure is one of the best designers out there!
Coke Kate still looks like a dirty skank; no matter what she wears.
And that 60-70's bath tub blue inspired suite the groom is wearing is horrendous...bleah... where's the ruffle front shirt to go with it, or the six inch wide tie?

Why is Kate a bad mom?
I think people draw that conclusion because she is constantly out partying or with friends and the kid is no where to be seen. Plus, considering Pete Doherty wasn't even allowed per a court order to be around his own kid yet she had him around Lila speaks volumes.
Also, there was some footage of her at an airport a few months ago where she was surrounded by paps. Lila was with her and sitting on an luggage trolley and bitch got angry at the paps and slammed into something. The kid was still in on, but she did that.
Honestly, I think the nanny or nannies are the one raising Lila. It will be a miracle if she doesn't turn out to be a druggie mess like Mummy.

"What doesn't kill you makes you want to shank a ho!" - Hotmami
Does she not own a brush? Her hair looks like she just got out of bed.
She is so hot. One of the sexiest drunk faces in the celebutard world. I like that her hair looks messy. Looks like she was getting randy before the wedding.
I thought that was Paul Rudd at first.

Why is Kate a bad mom? Not snarking, honest question. I've seen her in Disney or some shit with her kid, plus she doesn't whore the little girl out, I dunno, thought she was normal. What's the gossip, ladies?
"What doesn't kill you makes you want to shank a ho!" - Hotmami
I really think the drugz is Peatie's first lurv, Kate has to be a distant second.
Kate is pure sex, and I'd drink her cokey bathwater. Love the vintage veil, very 20's. Her dude looks better than usual, too.
"What doesn't kill you makes you want to shank a ho!" - Hotmami
Dress her up and the bitch still looks dirty.
Are they seperated yet?
I see the "something blue" is a douchesuit.
"This isn't Shakespeare in the Park, bitch!" I am going to try to work this into every conversation for the next few days.
I loathe this cokehead. Bad Mother and still thinks she's 21. Never understood her appeal.
I must be the only one who actually LIKES the dress, admires the GUTS of the groom to pull that off and it looks funky and boheiman and just what Kate would wear.
And I thought that Galliano guy was the Nazi-loving gay designer! *LOL* You go, Kate! Stand by your friends, whether they are gay or facist or BOTH!!! *LOL*

honestly thought her dude was gabe saporta of midtown/cobra starship and consequently almost pissed myself. although gabe's current piece is fucking OOOOOGLAY, obviously not kate (who isn't a 10 by any means, but damn, gabe could take his girl to a dog show and place high).

And love the pic where he's dropping his cigarette mid-stride.:P
My thoughts exactly Dr. Dick! Tens of thousands spent on the dress, the ring, the ceremony, but the hair is untouched since she rolled out of bed at noon. I am a wedding hair snob, though. It's doesn't have to be fake and frozen-looking, but do something with it, bitches, please!

so in heartgold i breed my umbreon and got another eevee egg(he got breed once for jolteon)and its taking longer than the first eevee to hatch! i don't know why its taking longer...
It takes 9,180 steps to hatch an eevee. If you had a pokemon with flame body or magma armor, it will speed up the process. I have three suggestions why this is happining.
You had a pokemon with magma body or magma armor while hatching your first eevee.
Something is wrong with you.
This is probably the best reason, though I may be wrong (don't down vote me if it is wrong just comment). On eevee's page it says a MINIMUM of 9, 180
Well when you hatched the Eevee (Jolteon) did you have a Pokemon with Flame Body/Magma Armor in your team because if you have a Pokemon with Flame Body/Magma Armor the steps for hatching the egg is cut in half.
If you don't have a Pokemon with Flame Body/Magma Armor in your team with your Eevee egg it will take longer to hatch.
It takes 9,180 steps to hatch an eevee. So with Flame Body/Magma Armor you will need 4,590 steps to hatch the Eevee egg.
Hope this helps =P

- Description
876 feet. That's the amount of vertical space that exists between The New River Gorge Bridge and the water. Below is a tribute to nature's wonder. Above is a modern engineering miracle. Bridge Day celebrates both, and all the space between.
It started with the Fayette Station Road, originally called the Gentry Road, which was 1909. The bridge below the main arch bridge is the Tunney Hunsacker Bridge (oten reffered to as "the little bridge" by visitors. It was the first bridge for cars to cross the New River Gorge. At the time, that was the area's engineering marvel.
In the 1960's Corridor L, which is Route 19, began construction, and it had to cross the New River Gorge. The only question was how. The answer was to build what was then the largest arch bridge in the world. Construction began in 1974 and was completed 3 years later in 1977. It was opened to the public in October of that year.
The bridge is a structure of amazing statistics. 3030 feet long. 876 feet high. 70 feet wide. 88 million pounds of U.S. Cor Ten steel and American cement. Opened and dedicated on October 22, 1977, the span has since become the symbol of West Virginia.

SNOWBIRD, UTAH – Forty years of Snowbird history are being celebrated this month with a Birthday Bash and Snowbird's annual Summit Gala.
"Snowbird has become an iconic Utah destination, and we are delighted to celebrate 40 years of pristine powder skiing, Tram rides and family vacations." said Bob Bonar, President of Snowbird and one of six Snowbird employees recently recognized for 40 years of Snowbird service.
The Birthday Bash will take place on the same day Snowbird opened in 1971, Friday, Dec. 23 from 2 p.m. until 5 p.m. on the Plaza Deck. Snowbird will offer $40 lift tickets for the day, as well as food and beverage specials. The celebration will include a hula hoop contest and prizes for the best 70s costume contest and for the Snowbird guest with the most Snowbird season passes. DJ Knucklz will be spinning 70s music, and guests may enter a raffle drawing.
The Summit Gala will take place Wednesday, Dec. 28, at 5:30 p.m. Snowbird's founders, Ted Johnson and Dick Bass, will speak during dinner, and live music will be provided by Imagine: The Beatles Tribute Band. Another highlight of the evening will be the presentation of a new video called "Hatching the Bird," documenting the opening of Snowbird. Tickets to the Gala cost $125 per person, or $1,000 for a table of 10. Proceeds will benefit the Cottonwood Canyons Foundation, Snowbird Sports Education Foundation and Wasatch Adaptive Sports. Tickets may be purchased at https://store.snowbird.com/gala/.
Snowbird has become an important fixture in the community since Ted Johnson and Dick Bass opened Snowbird in 1971. The resort is continually improving, with the complete renovation of The Cliff Lodge, expansion into Mineral Basin, a connection to Alta, a world-class spa, and most recently a record-breaking 783" of snow during the 2010-11 season. Dick Bass' dream of "the creation of a year-round resort, which respects and complements the beauty and inspiration of this natural setting – a place dedicated to increasing human understanding through the enhancement of body, mind and spirit," has become a reality.
Special 40th Anniversary merchandise can bought on Snowbird's online store at: http://www.snowbird.com/shopping/40thmerchandise.html.
Snowbird's Christmas Eve Torchlight Parade will take place Saturday, Dec. 24 at dusk. A traditional Hanukkah candle lighting ceremony will take place each night at 4:45 p.m. from Dec. 20 through Dec. 27. For more information on Snowbird's history, visit http://www.snowbird.com/about/history.html or contact Snowbird Communications Manager Emily Moench at (801) 891-3496 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

I am 54 years old, mother to 2 boys aged 35 and 27 and I have fostered children for Solihull L.A. for 22 years, therefore I have been a mother to a lot of children mainly teenagers .For the past 7 years I have been fostering teenagers from other countries this has been demanding and very challenging for me. I have had to learn about other cultures, beliefs and religions, most times at very short notice. Fostering has been very rewarding and I hope to carry on for many years. I would like to represent all foster carers in the U.K. I was unable to purchase tickets for the olmypics and i would be very honoured to carry the touch and take part in the london 2012 olmypics. I have raised a lot of money for charities over the years, £75.000 for B.I.B.I.C based at Bridgewater and £1,800 each for Cancer Research and the Warwickshire Air Ambuance.

Turbine Point Cards are prepaid cards that you can purchase at your local Wal-Mart. Each card is worth a determined amount of Turbine points. Once the card is redeemed in the DDO or LOTRO Store, those points will be added to your selected game account and you can then spend those points in the Store on all of your favorite in-game items. You've probably seen racks at retail stores everywhere offering similar cards for everything from music to your favorite restaurants. These cards are a great way to budget your spending, give points to a friend, or buy what you want with cash instead of credit cards or PayPal!
You can get the Turbine Point card at participating Wal-Mart stores throughout the USA! Just look for a rack with point cards for online games. Bring the card to the cash register to activate it.
