Time Change Reminder

Aghhhh. I hate this time change. For so many reasons. But especially this year b/c we have a 4 month old who is also going through the 4 month sleep problems :-(
Speaking of... i've reviewed most of your posts on 4 month sleep issues and i wonder 2 things. 1. were you aware of the wonder weeks when you wrote those posts? and 2. my dr says that 4 months is when babies learn cause and effect in regards to their cries and that they can start testing the idea that if they cry, you'll come running. I'm wondering if BOTH of those things may have a lot to do w/ the 4 month sleep issues.
I know you've felt it was a calorie issue w/ your kids but both of my kids have had these issues around 18 weeks or so and they are bottle fed and on cereal at 4 months, so i cant imagine that being the culprit.
Just some thoughts... :-)

We're going on vacation this year just before the time change, over 2 time zones, for three nights. My hope is that they're both so messed up, we just come home and jump straight into the new times. I'll let you know if you should add that to your list of strategies after we try it out! :)

No, I didn't know about wonder weeks when I wrote the early 4 month sleep problems posts. I don't think I knew about it until right around the time McKenna was born--sometime around that. Interesting thoughts :)

lol Katie! Seriously, though, when my husband and I went to DC a few years ago, we went back two time zones. We flew an all nighter and I was so thrown off that I went right on the new time zone with no problem. It just might work :)

Builder's Club
Builder's Club
Builders Club is associated with Kiwanis Club International. The mission of Builders Club is to involve middle school students in school and community service while developing quality leaders and citizens. Builders Club inspires people to better our world by helping the children of the world. The next step for club members is to join the Key Club while in high school.
We are fortunate at St. Stephen School because we have a very active club. In the past few years our club has built a playground for children in a shantytown in Lima, Peru. We have paid for medical services for a very sick child named Chaim in Israel. The club has purchased equipment for the physical education program as well as giving Mrs. Jessup $500 to spend on the music program. Two years ago, Builders Club donated money to the Community Center "Tot Lot' and painted their butterfly houses. They donated $500 to "Summer of Jazz", $2000 to children in Africa, and $500 to the American Red Cross. Altogether their fundraising efforts netted $5500! Last year lockers were purchased and money donated to the church for the kitchen project. Not bad for a little school of 155 students! This year we plan on really focusing on poor children around the world by helping their lives to be a little better.
The Kiwanis Club of Glenwood Springs helps to support us by providing a club advisor and a faculty advisor. These advisors attend weekly meetings that take place during the lunch hour. To keep the meetings running smoothly, "Robert's Rules of Order" are implemented.
We appreciate the support you as students, parents and faculty give us when you come to a pancake breakfast, buy a snack, or get your car washed. Our kids learn valuable lessons in learning to help others less fortunate than themselves. By giving of their time and services, they will carry on this attribute as adults in service to their communities.

Lord Hacking asked Her Majesty's Government:
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department of National Heritage (Lord Inglewood): No, my Lords. Applications for community-based projects are treated on their own merits and are not assessed by reference to the success or failure of applications for national projects.
Lord Hacking: My Lords, I am grateful to my noble friend for that reply. Will he confirm that there are important, and indeed big, community projects which are not currently getting national funds? Does my noble friend agree that generally in the London area community projects are not doing very well in getting lottery funds? Is it not correct that, on figures issued by my noble friend's department, community projects in the borough of Southwark are receiving only 2 per cent. of lottery funds as against national projects; in Islington, 3 per cent; in Camden, 3.4 per cent; and in Lambeth, 5 per cent? What advice can my noble friend give to those who are putting forward those community projects?
Lord Inglewood: My Lords, at the risk of stating the obvious, the key to receiving lottery grants is to apply for them. That is the essential first step. The kinds of points that my noble friend raised have caused concern. I understand that the London Pride Partnership is making contact with the distribution bodies to see whether there is scope for maximising lottery opportunities in London.
Lord Morris of Castle Morris: My Lords, is the Minister aware of the report that far too few inner city sports projects have so far come forward for lottery support? Is there any explanation for that, if it is a fact; and does it matter anyway?
Lord Inglewood: My Lords, I am not aware of the report to which the noble Lord refers. The purpose of the lottery is to try to ensure an appropriately even spread of distribution across the country as a whole, taking account of the particular circumstances and contexts that pertain. If it is the case that there is such a
Lord Molloy: My Lords, would it be possible, bearing in mind the Minister's practical reply, for the results of any inquiries to be made known to the House?
Lord Inglewood: My Lords, I am sure that the results of any inquiries made of the distribution bodies will be generally available. If I have any information that would be of particular interest to the noble Lord, I hope he will be assured that I shall contact him.
Lord Skelmersdale: My Lords, my noble friend said that the first step is to apply to the National Lottery Board. Surely the second step is to make sure that you have a very well thought out and costed project. Is it a fact that some applications are not sufficiently well thought out and constituted?
Lord Inglewood: My Lords, there must be examples to which my noble friend refers. However, in certain circumstances the distribution bodies are prepared to provide funds for feasibility studies to enable those who are perhaps less well placed to bring forward a proposal in a properly worked out form.
Lord Strabolgi: My Lords, can consideration be given to changing the rules relating to lottery grants so that the amount given does not have to be balanced by an equivalent amount raised from charity? Are the Government aware that it is very difficult for a museum, for example, that is to be awarded £5 million to have to raise the equivalent amount from charity? Charity resources are finite and limited. I receive complaints from everywhere. Will the Government consider this matter?
Lord Inglewood: My Lords, right from the outset matching funding has been a matter for the distribution bodies. My right honourable friend the Secretary of State has encouraged the distributors to be flexible in that regard for the kind of reasons mentioned by the noble Lord.
Lord Elton: My Lords, in his reply to the noble Lord, Lord Morris of Castle Morris, my noble friend said that it was necessary that there should be an even spread of the yield of the lottery across the country. Is he aware that there is an even spread of schools across the country, and a very widely shared perception that there should be an increase in the encouragement of sport played in and between schools? Could the bodies responsible for distributing the money be reminded of the need to enable teachers to supervise that sport at the cost of replacement teacher time, which is expensive?
Lord Inglewood: My Lords, my noble friend's point is a trifle wide of the Question. It is the case that one of the distributing bodies is the Sports Council, which is interested in the promotion of sport in its widest context. School sport is particularly important.
As regards the first part of my noble friend's question, in referring to the even spread of lottery distributions I specifically said that it was important to see them in the context of the circumstances that pertain. In the case of national projects, clearly if there is only one such project it will be very expensive and will have to be in only one place.
Lord Gainford asked Her Majesty's Government:
The Parliamentary Under-Sectary of State, Department of Transport (Viscount Goschen): My Lords, in January, the Government announced a package of measures to strengthen the oversight of safety standards of foreign aircraft operating to the United Kingdom. Since then the Civil Aviation Authority has carried out nine checks on such aircraft at our request. An audit of the aviation authority in Bulgaria has also been undertaken to measure that state's compliance with International Civil Aviation Organisation standards.
Lord Gainford: My Lords, I thank my noble friend for that Answer. Can he say whether Her Majesty's Government will encourage the publication of names of airlines whose aircraft fall below the required safety requirements, as is done in other countries, particularly the USA?
Viscount Goschen: My Lords, the first point to make is that the aviation industry has been extremely successful but extremely safe. We undertake random checks of foreign aircraft in this country where we have reason to doubt that states are not complying with International Civil Aviation Organisation standards. In those circumstances, we shall invite the CAA to inspect those aircraft. Fortunately, those circumstances are very few. The results of such inspections are usually either that the aircraft are not in the condition that some people might expect in terms of the safety standards--in other words the check was satisfactory--or that measures are quickly taken to put things right. If measures are not taken to put matters right, we shall take action and possibly ban aircraft from that company.
Lord Boyd-Carpenter: My Lords, can my noble friend say how many foreign airlines have been supervised in this way and how many have been adversely reported upon?
Viscount Goschen: My Lords, I can give the figure for the number of inspections carried out since we announced the package of new measures in January. So far, nine inspections have taken place. Where we have
Lord Clinton-Davis: My Lords, can the Minister tell the House what has been the result of those nine inspections? Have there been breaches of the minimum ICAO standards? If so, what sanctions are being applied?
Viscount Goschen: My Lords, I believe I have answered that question. For the nine inspections that have taken place, the results have been largely satisfactory. There have been some minor safety questions raised and in those circumstances the national authorities have taken action to address those questions. I shall be happy to write to the noble Lord with a list of the inspections, the dates and safety concerns that were originally raised and any problems that are outstanding.
Lord Clinton-Davis: My Lords, I am grateful to the Minister for deciding to do that. However, is he aware that there is an increasing practice of foreign airlines being used by UK operators where there is a need to bring in some additional help because of shortage of capacity and that frequently those foreign aircraft do not return to their home base? Does he believe that that is giving rise to some abuse and some considerable difficulty in being able to carry out the necessary inspections to which he alluded?

SARASOTA, Fla. -- The Orioles optioned third baseman Danny Valencia to Triple-A Norfolk during Thursday's Grapefruit League game against the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Valencia, who was acquired from the Boston Red Sox this offseason for cash considerations, was 10-for-31 this spring. He hit a game-winning solo home run in the Orioles' 8-7 win over the Red Sox on Tuesday in Fort Myers, his only one of the spring.
The 28-year-old Valencia entered camp as a possible right-handed designated hitter because of his .316/.359/.472 career batting line against right-handed pitching. He also competed for a utility infield spot this spring, playing both third base and first base.

The All-Party Parliamentary Group on HIV and AIDS hosts regular events in Parliament. Their purpose is to allow MPs and Peers to hear about and debate current issues away from party politics.
The Group values its contacts with the HIV sector outside parliament very highly, including professionals, volunteers and people infected and affected by HIV. Each meeting, the Group tries to invite a limited number of guests relevant to the subject under discussion to listen to presentations and sometimes, to contribute.
However many meetings are for MPs and peers only.
If you would like to put your name forward for invitations to meetings, you can ask to be added to the mailing list.We hope that colleagues understand that it is not possible to invite everyone who may wish to attend.
These pages give information about past events. Information about future events is only accessible through the mailing list.

Lunch Scholars Video: Something to Remember When Teachers' Unions Claim They Deserve More Pay
As I watched the video above, two thoughts immediately popped into my head:
1. Why do teachers' unions claim they deserve more pay and endless benefits when this is the result of their "hard work" in the classroom?
2. I honestly can't remember anyone this dumb in my Catholic high school back in Ohio when I was going to school in the mid-90s.
I do admit there's a caveat to #2 in that there was a girl in my grade school — when I was in third or fourth grade — who could have starred in this video. Cleveland sits on America's "North Coast" (according to the Ohio tourism board at least), on the shores of Lake Erie. You know, one of the Great Lakes (whose mnemonic device was HOMES). This girl must have been at home, sick in bed, on the day in first grade when we learned this because she ultimately revealed she thought that body of water just north of the city was the ocean. When pressed by the teacher to specify which ocean, the girl was surprised there was more than one, "since they were all connected". Finally, she mumbled "Indian Ocean", in an Amy Sedaris as Jerri Blank sort of way. I'm sure that's because she was remotely aware that "Indiana" or "India-something" was nearby and she ran with that. The nun at the chalk board got so red in the face hearing this I thought she was going to start screaming and slapping rulers across the tables — but instead she serenely floated out into the hallway, closing the oak and etched-glass door behind her, and LAUGHED AND LAUGHED AND LAUGHED.
But, I don't think even the Indian-Ocean-Borders-Ohio-Girl would have flubbed as many basic questions as these public high school students did.
I can just hear the teachers' union reps consoling the kids who thought there were 51 stars on the American flag (you know, for all 51 states): "It's okay Brendan, you can try again. We are all winners here. There are no right or wrong answers. You said there were 51 stars, but if you can think up an extra 6 stars you too can be president some day".
At least this wasn't filmed in the Chicago Public School system — where instead of just not answering the questions correctly the film crew would have been beaten senseless and their camera and microphone would have been stolen…while, of course, all the teachers were on some sort of union-mandated "break".
Steve Jobs wanted to annihilate the teachers' unions, keep schools open to 6pm, and abstain from publicly eating fancy foods in these austere times (but was overruled by the Obamas on that last one, because Barack had to have his cream pie)
I'm eager to read more details on what, exactly, is in the new Steve Jobs biography that's set to drop in the next few weeks.
Apparently, it includes an account of Jobs really letting Barack Obama have it and telling him directly that Unions are destroying this country, preventing factories from opening in America, and that teachers' unions in particular were responsible for depriving children of the educations they need to be able to remain competitive in the future.
Where Jobs scolded the White House for serving overly indulgent, "too fancy" fare at a meeting he was to attend with Obama…but the Obamas overruled him and insisted on gorging themselves on shrimp and expensive cream pies while the rest of America endures privation and austerity in their daily lives.
I wonder how those on the Left are going to absorb all this if they ever bother to read the new book on Jobs. Just about every Occupy Wall Street protestor seems to have an expensive Apple product of some kind on his or her person, whether it's an Iphone, an Ipod, an Ipad, or a Mac laptop.
The Unions are providing muscle and support to the Occupoopers.
Steve Jobs wanted to annihilate the Unions.
Paradox, much?
Is Sharia creeping into Georgia schools?
I really find this story unbelievable. I used to live in Marietta, Georgia…which is in Cobb County. It's a VERY RED county….in a solidly RED state so this just goes to show that public education today is run by the same type of people everywhere….liberals.
Why would middle schoolers need to be taught about polygamy? Maybe a brief explanation about it when discussing different cultures but this material presents it as the best thing since indoor plumbing and goes on to expound on the virtues of wearing a burqa (abuyahs). It's all presented as an innocent letter written by a 20 year old Saudi Arabian girl….
(an excerpt from the material):
"My name is Ahlima and I live in Saudi Arabia. … Perhaps two differences Westerners would notice are that women here do not drive cars and they wear abuyah. An abuyah is a loose-fitting black cloth that covers a woman from head to toe. I like wearing the abuyah since it is very comfortable, and I am protected from blowing sand. … I have seen pictures of women in the West and find their dress to be horribly immodest. … Women in the West do not have the protection of the Sharia as we do here. If our marriage has problems, my husband can take another wife rather than divorce me, and I would still be cared for. … I feel very fortunate that we have the Sharia"
Wait….did she say that if their marriage has problems then her husband can take another wife rather than divorce her? What happened to "a girl can be anything she wants to be whether she's married or not." ? Don't parents teach their daughters that they shouldn't need to rely on a man to support them?
Ms. Ahlima neglects to point out that she will be beaten if she dares to speak to another man that's not a relative and will probably be decapitated if she ever tries to leave her husband.
If I were a parent of a child in this school, I would be livid! You can bet that my child would march back into school the next day and let this teacher know exactly what our family thinks about Sharia…in no uncertain terms.
I'm not saying that children shouldn't learn about Middle Eastern culture but there are ways to present it that are more appropriate. This material is not appropriate. Sharia law should never be presented positively. I think we should let the Georgia state superintendent of schools know how we feel about teaching children that polygamy is a good thing. I think he should reconsider the curriculum because you can bet that Christianity isn't presented this in depth or with a positive spin.

URGENT ACTION ITEM: How to find a list of union vs. non-union stores so people can choose which to support
Here is a fantastic Labor Day Project that could be of immense value to all of us.
Can you help find a list of union vs. non-union stores so that we can all choose where we want to spend our money?
I would shop exclusively at non-union stores in a heartbeat if I had a list of companies to evaluate.
This means not staying in union hotels when traveling, not buying groceries from union-stocked shelves, not going anywhere near labor unions whenever possible.
If the Labor Unions have declared war on Republicans and have now pledged to serve as Obama's Goon Squad and Thug Army in 2012…why give the Unions any more of your hard earned money by shopping in stores that help fund the unions?
Why not support companies who have fought hard to keep Democrats' thuggery out of their stores so that none of your money ever falls into the DNC's hands?
Have you ever seen a list of companies that are non-union?
Is there a comprehensive listing of all grocery stores, hotel chains, restaurants, clothing stores, etc. that are non-union so people can start reevaluating where they shop every day to avoid union stores as much as possible?
HORCRUX ALERT: Labor Unions declare open war on Republicans
If you are not personally a Labor Union president or other high-ranking fat cat or crony, you have no vested interests in supporting unions.
Unions are the Democrats' goon squads, in place to shake down local and state governments for as much money as they can funnel back into the DNC itself. Without the labor unions, the Democrats would be bankrupt…and without Democrats, the Labor Union officials would not live lives of Riley.
Labor Unions have officially declared open war on Republicans, promising to be Obama's Thug Army in 2012.
It's long been said that if Labor Unions ever indelibly identified themselves with the Democrat Party — so that regular, average Americans who don't pay much attention to politics perceive Labor Unions as the Democrats' goon squad — that both the Labor Unions and Democrats would be doomed.
The Labor Unions are one of the horcruxes the Left depends on to maintain power.
The other entities that keep the Left in power are:
* The Race Industry…which exploits black people for use by Democrats whenever opponents need to be called RAAACISTS to shut down policy debate
* The Gaystapo…bullies in the gay community who shout HOMOPHOBE! and BIGOT! at conservatives and Christians, to make Republicans afraid of challenging the Left.
* The Cocktail Party GOP Establishment…which are the enablers who allow the Left to get away with everything it does; in return these Vichy Republicans live the high life, enjoying the cocktail party cucumber and mayonnaise sandwich perks of being the Washington Generals to the Left's Globetrotters.
What are some ways YOU can help your friends and family see the Labor Unions for what they are and identify the other horcruxes the Left relies upon to stay in power?
SHOCKING: Illinois Policy Institute proves high taxes equal massive job losses
Prepare yourselves for the shocking news you are about to hear, but the Illinois Policy Institute has concluded that…brace yourselves…high taxes equal massive job losses.
In other news, going out into the rain without an umbrella equals getting wet…eating the menus Michelle Obama prepares for the White House equals getting fat…and saying one thing but doing another makes you a hypocrite (see: Ben Cohen, and come to think of it, Michelle Obama).
The graph above really shows it all: when Illinois decided to ramp up its taxes yet again, employers started shedding jobs to compensate.
Democrats have bankrupted the "blue states" by ratcheting up taxes every year, to keep paying for more and more entitlement programs and bribes to unions, so these groups can continue to keep the Democrats in power.
The end result is that not only are state treasuries drained dry, but the businesses that existed in the state are forced out because of the high taxes that prohibit them from staying in business.
When Democrats destroy one state, like California, and things start to fall apart there, the most Leftist of their elite emigrate to neighboring states (like Colorado, Nevada, or Texas) and start trying to raise the taxes and increase entitlement programs there.
It's a cycle that needs to be stopped, because it sure can't carry on forever if we want to have a country left.
ACTION ITEM: Help Kim Simac defeat a Democrat in next Tuesday's recall election
Kim Simac is a hockey mom.
She's also a children's book author and a former radio host.
Next Tuesday, in another of the Wisconsin recall elections, Kim's running against one of the Democrats who fled the state in the reprehensible effort to keep allowing the public sector unions to drain Wisconsin tax payers dry.
Kim's campaign needs people to make calls on her behalf, either in field offices or from their homes.
I don't have a link yet to how to do this from your computer, but I expect to get one shortly.
In the meantime, here's Kim's campaign site.
Here's the contact information for her campaign if you want to volunteer to help in this last push towards Tuesday.
Contact us at 715-420-0530 or email us at firstname.lastname@example.com
Remember: the unions have already lost BIG — to the tune of $20 million that they burned in this failed effort to keep draining the Wisconsin treasury — and they'll lose EVEN MORE if Kim picks up that Democrat seat.
It's about much more than Wisconsin…it's about inspiring legislatures in ALL STATES to take on the unions this way.
So whatever you could do to help Kim is very much something you can do to help counter-union efforts in YOUR STATE too!
Oh Happy Day! GOP keeps control of Senate in WI
The Democrats needed 3 seats to win back control of the Wisconsin senate. They got 2.
Here are the ones the Republicans lost….
Democratic state Rep. Jennifer Shilling of La Crosse, defeating incumbent Republican Sen. Dan Kapanke, who had been in the Senate since 2004. The other Republican ousted was first-term incumbent Sen. Randy Hopper of Fond du Lac, defeated by Democrat Jessica King, the former deputy mayor of Oshkosh.
The BIG race that the Dems. really wanted to win was the Darling (R)- Pasch(D) race. Alberta Darling is a very outspoken supporter of Gov. Scott Walker so the unions were out in full force to try and oust her….they didn't.
There's a recall election next week for 2 Democrat Senators in Wisconsin. That little weasel Bob Wirch and Jim Holperin. We need to work on getting out the vote to oust these two. Wouldn't that make a big statement…"yeah, you won 2 seats back last week but we picked up 2 this week."
I'm waiting for the inevitable legal challenge from the left. The "they stole the race from us" routine. I watched MSNBC last night (as much as I could stomach) and Chris Matthews, Ed Schultz and Rachel MadCow all were red in the face with excitement….claiming that this is the beginning of the 2012 elections and Wisconsin is a harbinger of things to come for the Republicans.
Well…things are looking good.
"The idea that a capitalist country can support a socialist welfare state is collapsing before our very eyes"
Please read every last word of Janet Daley's new column in The Telegraph.
What's happening all around us right now really is the collapse of the entitlements system that emerged after WWII and metastasized in the 1970s and 1980s.
The Democrat Party will fight this tooth and nail, because Democrats need those entitlements to keep paying various factions of the Democrat Party for their perpetual loyalty.
The Labor Unions in this country must be gutted, particularly the public unions that drain local budgets and funnel tax dollars straight back to the Democrat Party, which then uses these campaign contributions to keep hold of power and extend the grasp of Unions further.
It is a vicious cycle that's ruining this country.
Daley writes about how entitlement programs have destroyed Europe. While things happened differently here, we're in the same place essentially.
The Cocktail Party GOP establishment has been terrified for decades of confronting Democrats head-on about all of this, since the Cocktail Party fears the bad press these battles will bring. Democrats will savage everyone who tries to eliminate entitlement programs…or even better, dissolve entire Departments of the federal government to save money.
That's what needs to be done.
Only people who are willing to fight THIS fight should even be considered as 2012 presidential candidates.
We have really come to this point.
It's not going to be fun for any of us to deal with, but we now have no choice but to handle it.
GREAT MERCIFUL ZEUS! Audit reveals MASSIVE voter fraud in Illinois elections!
Defend the Vote is an organization here in Illinois founded to empower citizens to protect the integrity of elections.
Shockingly, many Americans believe "somebody" is making sure the Left doesn't tamper with elections results, using Big Labor, the Black Panthers, or other George Soros-funded goon squads to commit massive voter fraud. The unions in particular are engaged heavily in election tampering, since the unions need to elect Democrats to office so Democrats can ensure the unions bleed taxpayers for as much as possible in various union contracts.
Illinois is arguably the most corrupt state in the union when it comes to elections.
If Defend the Vote can audit the election process here in the belly of the curropt-o-beast, then perhaps we can be a test case for the rest of the nation to follow to TAKE BACK OUR ELECTIONS from the Leftist crooks who have gamed the system.
PLEASE read Defend the Vote's latest press release detailing efforts to audit Illinois' election process and hopefully you'll get some ideas on how YOU can get a ball like this rolling in your own home state.

Kcal 553 Fat 32.5g Fat(sats) 20.6g Carbs 58.5g
I have to say the bar I sampled and reviewed today is up there amongst the weirdest interms of flavour combinations. Today my third dip into my Kshocolat batch of goodies saw me sample the 'Lemon & Pepper White Chocolate' variant - a bar that included 'An unusual blend of white chocolate, crushed pepper corns and real lemon'.
The bar came in the usual 80g form, which did me for two substantial servings. The outer packaging was reasonably brightly coloured (when compared to the rest of the range anyway!), the bar itself had an authentic looking speckled appearance which I assume must have been due to the ground pepper as the only vanilla element to the bar was 'natural vanilla flavour'. It had a nice cream coloured appearance and had the same attractive cocoa pod pattern as with the rest of the Kshocolat range. The product looked great but my word it smell awful!!! As soon as I opened the inner foil packaging I detected a very pungent aroma that I would aliken to gone off milk...it smelt appalling and nearly put me off eating it altogether - if it wasn't for the slight presence of a lemon scent I possibly wouldn't have.
Thankfully the chocolate tasted alot better than it smelt. The white chocolate had a delightful texture; it melted at a nice pace on the tongue and had a warmth to its aftertaste which I will attribute to the presence of the ground pepper. The taste was very smooth and developed nicely in the course of its melting. The first flavour that was most evident was the lemon - it was fresh and zesty and gave the chocolate an interesting initial favour. As the chocolate melted and established itself the creaminess of the 24% milk solids made themselves known, the chocolate had a light milky vanilla flavour that was certainly enjoyable and never overly sweet. The aftertaste to the bar was where the black pepper came through, as stated previously it offered a warmth to the texture and a nice spicy kick...well worthy of its presence. The combination of ingredients although eccentric added nicely to a good creamy white chocolate - it was a good mixture of flavours and very enjoyable.
Overall I really feared for the potential of this bar before I tasted it - its near cheese like smell was extremely off-putting, and as you can see unfortunately this has had repercussions with its Chocolate Mission rating. I say unfortunately as this bar tasted really quiet good. Its creamy milky white chocolate was balanced nicely with a zesty lemon flavour, and the spicy warming ground pepper nicely added to a smooth sumptuous texture. If Kshocolat could sort out the smell of this bar I would be recommending this left right and centre as a great standard white chocolate offering. Until then I suggest you make sure you have a clothes peg handy if your going to being trying this one.

Bügeltischbezug aus Baumwolle, ohne Unterlage, Größe B 124 x 38 cm - Ice Water wurde bewertet mit von 5 von 182.Rated 1 von 5 von Vee aus Difficult to fit How can something as simple as an ironing board cover be so difficult to fit?! You have very thin thread, a circle with holes, and a grip thing. What is wrong with simple elastic? I can't pull the thread hard enough to wrap it around the circle, which hangs down and catches on the clothes. The grip thing barely grips anything, and it just seems a lot of faff for no gain. PLEASE NOTE: you will need to buy extra felt underlay for use with this product. This is not made clear in the description.Veröffentlichungsdatum: 2016-08-08Rated 4 von 5 von BettyMcG aus Simply simple to fit! This was surprisingly easy to fit, I managed it first time with no lumps and bumps. It has a couple of wee gadgets that go on the underside to tighten the pull cord and pull the sides under the ironing board to keep it neatly in place. The one think to point out is that there is only a very thin layer of foam on the underside of the cover. I believe you can buy covers with thicker foam but this particular one has the thinnest layer.Veröffentlichungsdatum: 2017-09-27Rated 3 von 5 von Joyce aus reasonable product but overpriced bought this as a replacement cover for my Brabantia ironing board. Easy to fit and fits very well although it requires an extra foam pad underneath as it is quite thin. Would be helpful if the fabric was smoother as clothes do not slide on and off easily. It would be nice to be able to replace it with the same cover that was on it when I bought it which was of much better quality but this was not available to buy separately,Veröffentlichungsdatum: 2016-05-19Rated 3 von 5 von mbhome aus Okay! Good design and size the only fault was the lack of foam padding.

Other than that great ironing board cover, makes ironing smooth.Veröffentlichungsdatum: 2013-07-31Rated 5 von 5 von Lettuce123 aus Great fit as always Always buy a proper Brabantia cover for my Brabantia board. Great fit, good design and a good deal too. I always keep my old covers on underneath as it gives the board extra "padding" and is really easy to iron on....Veröffentlichungsdatum: 2017-08-09

So do I have your help?
If I do, then here's what I want you to do:
Fill out this contact form below and I will contact you in the next 2 days to let you know on the time of your free session.
Write your personal email (because you will get an email back from me personally) and
add what is your current biggest frustration when you want to approach a woman.
Also, add what is the best time for your session (please include your time zone)
After that, click submit, and check your inbox for my email in the next 2 days.
P.S After I fill the fill the quota of 30 guys, I will remove this page and you will get the usual "page not found" message when trying to access this. So please hurry, this page will be down in couple of days.
Here's what some other guys who tried the "Approach Anxiety Cure" technique have to say about it
"It's worth skipping your 21st birthday" - Aarron New Zeeland
"Actions speak louder than words" - Richard Australia
"I danced with 4 different women in the first night" - James, Chicago
(Names are censured for privacy reasons)
"Before I would just look the girl from the other side of the room, but now
I think if I saw the girl I have in mind right now, I would walk straight up to her. I kind of feel how she feels actually, and this makes me just feel comfortable.
Man, it's weird. What have you done to me?"
- A, London
"While previously I felt like something is blocking me, I felt that sinking feeling in my stomach and I just couldn't approach her, now at this moment I feel confident, I want to go out right now and walk up to a woman and just do it. I don't
feel that feeling anymore. I really appreciate it. "
- C, Netherlands
"On a scale of 1 to 10 my anxiety is at about level 1 or 2. It's basically gone. I would have more anxiety about approaching a man frankly."
- K, New Hampshire
"Your technique is really brain washing but in a good sense ; ) Great work : ) "
- T, London
"The years I've wasted by not approaching, I'm sorry you came up with this now and not before"
- O, Los Angeles
"I feel quite strange actually. Like, I feel stupid for even having anxiety before. I feel I can approach any woman at this time. I feel more dominant, more confident, like almost she is just a guest who needs to be taken care of. I feel in control and powerful.Previous to the session I would rate my confidence level at 5, and now I feel it's at about 9 or 10. It's almost unbelievable really."
- David, UK
"I enjoy doing fun things, and approaching women really felt scary for me. And I didn't like that very much. Now I feel liberated. Like women aren't scary anymore. To anyone deciding on whether or not he should try this technique I would just say pfff, don't even think about it. Just do it really. You'll be glad you did."
- J, Liverpool
"A big improvement is when now I can have that feeling, a belief that I have something to give for her. I learned that women have similar fears as I do and that she want's validation from me. I experienced how it feels to give that masculine energy to women. Thank you very much, I hope I will be able to do something for you as well"
- A, Austria
"I feel relaxed. Before I had butterflies in my stomach when I wanted to approach a girl, but now I feel completely relaxed, and I make the girl feel more comfortable and ease. I would recommend this technique to everybody. My level of confidence now is at 8, and before the session at 4. My anxiety before the session was at about a 7, now it's at about 1 or 2, it's almost gone. Thanks a lot!"
- T, Netherlands

In Search of a Fiction Writer
Budget R1750-5250 ZAR
I need a fiction writer to expand on an idea that has taken root in my mind. Only when I have made my selection will the idea be revealed but you will need to have experience in writing a thriller. The story will be a thriller, and to top it all off, with a twist.
I would like the story to contain between 8 000 and 10 000 words. If I find the story to be of excellent quality, I will definitely be sending more work to the chosen person for more stories of the same genre.
The story needs to be completed in 30 days, or less.
To be considered, I need two pages to prove that you have what it takes. The two pages can contain a full story or a start of a story but I want to be left wanting more.
Upon completion of the project I also require you to send through a document stating that you have no claim to the story after having handed it over to me. All rights of the story will belong to me the moment you send it through.
The story should be of high quality and filling lines with nonsensical words will not be accepted.
My budget is currently low but as I gather more and more stories, it will be expanding. I hope to find someone to join me on the journey.

I apologise upfront, but it's time for another rant about travel in this country.
I find it increasingly unappealing to have to fly anywhere these days and not just because all the 'no frills' airlines seem to have adopted the motto 'treat 'em mean, keep 'em keen'.
I know I'm not alone in feeling this way as yesterday it was reported that over 17 million people in the UK are planning a 'staycation' this year. And after experiencing the trauma of Luton airport the other week, I can't say I blame them.
My journey started off well. I left my house around 4.30am for a 7.15am flight and sailed up the various motorways to Luton with absolutely no problem (apart from the monsoon-like rain conditions).
I had cunningly decided to check in online - paying £10 each way for the privilege. Airlines want us to check in on-line (some even make it mandatory), but when you try to do this, they insist you have to pay for your seat before you can do so. Can anyone tell me if this is even legal?
Anyway, I decided to pay up so that I could have any extra hour of sleep. But it was once I reached the turn off to Luton airport at around 5.40am that it all my planning went spectacularly pear-shaped.
I queued for over 40 minutes on the slip road just to get onto the roundabout that leads to the airport. I was convinced that there must have been a six car pileup (or punch up!) on it, but when I reached the roundabout, it just turned out to be that good old chestnut "sheer weight of traffic". I raced off to the long stay car park, chucked my car into a space and sprinted to the courtesy bus stop…. To find another gaggle of tired, disgruntled passengers, shivering in the cold and rain, waiting for the bus… which was stuck in the traffic at the roundabout!
15 minutes later (it was now getting on for 6.30am and my flight was at 7.15) the bus turned up. We piled on and the bus set off. Only to get stuck in the traffic at the same bloomin' roundabout for another 10 minutes.
Feeling my blood pressure escalating to dangerous levels, I trotted up to the front of the bus to ask the driver what was the problem and would it be quicker to walk.
He was philosophical. Apparently it's like this EVERY Monday morning at Luton since they increased the number of flights but forgot to do anything about the road system infrastructure around the airport.
We eventually reached the drop off spot in front of the terminal at 6.45am… I had just half an hour to make my flight.
Thank goodness for online check-in!
But, I had forgotten about just getting through security! When I got there, the queue was 300 strong and out the door, spilling down the escalator.
So I coughed up another £3 for a "priority security pass"….enabling me to jump the queue as a VIP! (Don't make me laugh! VIP in airports must stand for Very Irritating Person!)
Going through security was the usual scenario of being barked at by grumpy, tired officials, stuffing all my possessions (including most of what I was actually wearing) through the scanners and then putting them all back on again the other side.
At no point during this whole procedure had anyone said "please" or "thank you" or "if you wouldn't mind", never mind "have a lovely holiday".
It's like the whole of the aviation industry is just really, really annoyed that any of us want to fly anywhere. And they really know how to let you know it.
Why is this? Why, when everyone wants us all to spend money and save the economy by splashing our hard earned cash are we so awful to the very people who are our bread and butter? Is it a conspiracy? Did the government tell them to treat us worse than cattle being transported around so that we'd stay put and therefore cut our carbon emissions? If so, just tell us…I won't budge an inch from my doorstep… honest.
Which leads me back to where I began…. No wonder 17 million of us have decided it nicer (and much easier) to stay at home! - AM

Software or computer software is a portion of the computer system that comprises computer instructions or data, in distinction to the physical hardware from which the system is ultimately built. In software engineering and computer science, computer software is basically the all the information which is processed by the data, programs, and computer systems.
Computer software comprises libraries, computer programs, and other non-executable data such as digital media or online documentation.
Computer software and hardware are dependent on each other and neither of them can be used realistically on their own. At the lower most level, executable code comprises machine language instructions definite to an individual processor, mainly a central processing unit or CPU.
Numerous software are programmed in written in high level programming languages that are easy and efficient for software programmers. High level languages are thus translated into machine language employing an interpreter or a compiler or an amalgamation of both of them.

Apple recently released a new phone, a new operating system, and a new privacy policy. Apple also gave us one more thing that no one has seemed to notice: A whole new way to tell the government to stick their subpoena where the sun don't shine.
Apple's updated privacy policy is part of its new operating system, iO8, which provides more security because of deeper encryption. With the new system, no one, not even Apple, can get into the device. The only one with access is you – the user with the password. What this means to the legal system is game-changing. The next time Apple gets a court order to produce data contained on a device it simply cannot comply.
The convergence of law and technology always makes interesting bedfellows.
To be clear, some of the data on your iphone is on the device itself and some is in the iCloud. And yes, actor Jason Segel was right when he exclaimed in the recent film "Sex Tape – "no one understands the cloud!" But thankfully Apple has now made it easier to adjust settings to prevent data from going into the iCloud. (Sorry folks, less naked celeb pics but at least your sex tapes are more secure). Because Apple has the capability to recover data from the iCloud it will still have to turn over that information when legally requested…….unless you use your user friendly blockage setting…..hint hint.
Apple may have set out to please customers or respond to privacy groups in the wake of the Edward Snowden disclosures; either way, the population getting the greatest benefit from Apple's lockdown are criminal suspects. Since they never get the benefit of anything this is certainly a nice change for them.
In June, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Riley v. California that police now needed a search warrant to retrieve data from a cell phone, unless it's an emergency. That was big. This Apple situation is - HUGE.
Even with a valid search warrant, which requires probable cause and a Judge's signature, law enforcement cannot get into the device. The act of giving the passcode requires speaking – that is a statement. That statement by an accused (or even a party to a civil action) is protected by the Fifth Amendment's right against self-incrimination; you know, Miranda, "you have the right to remain silent…..anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law" - that thing tv cops say while pounding on suspects.
Fortunately Courts have had to examine similar issues recently, which will provide guidance for Judges. The first case of this kind, in 2009, addressed whether a person could be forced to give up his/her "passphrase". In re Boucher, a federal criminal case in Vermont, began with Boucher crossing the border from Canada to Vermont when he allowed his laptop to be inspected. Immigration officers saw child pornography on it which led to his arrest. Soon after when law enforcement was trying to search the laptop more thoroughly they could not access the "Z" drive. The Magistrate Judge quashed a grand jury subpoena to provide the passphrase, saying it would constitute self-incrimination. The government appeals that decision and the District Judge finds that because Boucher initially showed the Immigration officers at the border contents of the "Z" drive, the government already knew about it and its contents added little to the case, Boucher was ordered to provide the passphrase.
A more likely scenario is depicted in a federal criminal case from Michigan in 2010, United States v. Kirschner, where the prosecutors tried to use a grand jury subpoena to uncover the contents of an encrypted file from the defendant's hard drive. The Judge decided that compelling Kirschner to disclose the password would require him to produce "testimony" that would violate his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination.
So either the accused is required to give the passcode or not; it depends on the facts, the evidence the government already has, and the level of cooperation. Another option to get the passcode is to give a suspect immunity. Meaning, 'give us the password, we won't hold it against you in court, we won't use it show guilt and, in fact, we will give you a better offer (plea bargain)'.
These choices are all fine and dandy until it's an emergency. Then what? Roll with this - you, the cop, is faced with immediate danger to a victim; you respond to a tip, find a man matching a photo but he is alone. His partner in crime is holding a young girl hostage somewhere. You need to get to her. The location where she's being held is in a text message. The phone locks.
This guy is not giving the passcode. You hold a gun to his head, he gives the passcode, you get to the location, save the girl and…….all the evidence gets suppressed. Point of fact, the case against both the perps will probably be dismissed. You cannot threaten someone's life to get them to say something, then use that statement against them. You just can't.
It is often surprising how few bright line rules there are in the law. You can argue either side. You can win or lose. And while the dusty ol' U.S. Constitution may not be a bright, shiny red Apple, it certainly wins out. Every. Time.

brightspot: Target/T-Mobile prepaid MVNO. S3, F3, F6, 521, unlocked GSM. $50 unlimited talk, text, web (1GB 4G). pic.twitter.com/NRaGvIhPra
— @evleaks (@evleaks) October 1, 2013
After first teaming up to sell wireless goods way back in April 2010, it looks like Target and T-Mobile may have another partnership in the works that'll bring them even closer.
A new prepaid MVNO dubbed "brightspot" is reportedly set to be introduced as a collaboration between Target and T-Mobile. That's according to @evleaks, who claims that the service will offer a plan with unlimited talk, text and web, including 1GB of high-speed data, for $50 per month. It's also said that customers will receive a $25 Target gift card for every six consecutive months of service. The Target/T-Mo collabo is expected to support unlocked GSM hardware with a SIM kit and will have devices like the LTE-enabled Samsung Galaxy S III, LG Optimus F3 and F6 and the Nokia Lumia 521 available to consumers.
Target is no stranger to the mobile game, as the retailer has been selling phones in its stores for years and has its own dedicated sales website. Apparently the bullseye crew is feeling a bit more ambitious now, though, and while brightspot's $50 plan sounds decent compared to all of the other prepaid options out there, the perk of receiving a $25 Target gift card for six straight months of service could make this MVNO attractive to some consumers. There's no word yet on when brightspot will officially launch, but that packaging up there looks to me like it's ready for the fluorescent light of retail stores, so it may not be long before we hear more.
UPDATE: A new report from Droid-Life claims to have more details on "brightspot" and exactly how it'll work. The service is expected to offer three different plans, starting with a $35 option that includes unlimited talk and text but no data. Smartphone users can choose from the aforementioned $50 plan that includes unlimited talk, text and 1GB of high-speed data (throttled after that point), or a $65 option with unlimited talk, text and 4GB of high-speed data. International add-ons will be available that include texting for $5 per month or calling and texting for $10.
The $25 Target gift card reward is also backed up by this latest report. It's said that brightspot subscribers will receive the gift card by mail around 2-4 weeks after qualifying. An internal document comparing brightspot to both StraightTalk and Verizon pre-paid can be found below. It's expected that brightspot will officially launch this Sunday, Oct. 6.
