Dream Dictionary Roller CoasterWhen you see a roller coaster enter your dream as a dream symbol, this usually means that right off the bat, something in your life is going through changes. It could be you, it could be a friend, or it could be a few things. However, a roller coaster suggests that something has made a big change in your life, and as soon as you ride it, you are going to find out what those changes were. The meaning of dream about roller coasters will often tell you just what direction that you feel your life is going in. A dream dictionary will usually tell you that if you feel that you are going up higher inclines and down less steep drops, then for the most part, you are doing better than usual. However, if you are going down sharper drops and not doing as many inclines, this could be a sign that your life is getting worse.
Of course, dream meanings such as this can only be applied in a very loose sense. You cannot simply determine that someone's life is going bad or good based on the paths that the roller coaster takes in the dream. However, if the dreamer was able to come up with a list of things that had taken steep changes or relationships that had experienced ups and downs recently, then they might be able to get a good idea of what the roller coaster image relates to.
Dream interpretations agree that dream symbols usually directly relate to events that are occurring in the life of the dreamer. To this end, it makes sense to assume that if you have had a lot of ups and downs recently in your life, then a roller coaster would be a great way for your subconscious to express that. If you have been having erratic emotions lately, then one dream interpretation of a roller coaster might be that it exists to notify you of your constantly changing emotional state.
Yet another dream meaning of a roller coaster might be that the roller coaster is there to notify you of changes in your friendships or relationships. Have a partner that you have been on and off with, or a friend that has flaked on you too many times recently? Then this might be the reason that you are dreaming of roller coasters. A roller coaster can also be a message in your dreams about your successes. If you have been successful in life, then a roller coaster may remain at a steep incline for some time, but if you have not, then the roller coaster may be constantly plummeting. One important thing to note about this is that you should notice the people that are riding in the roller coaster with you. If there are people in the coaster that are significant to your life, then this may indicate an important message about these people. Stay alert for these details.

My dreams are always weird. I had a dream where I entered this cave and then was at the front of the line of a roller coaster. A bunch of people and friends were already sitting and I was looking for a spot. In the front cart, these two russian boys started to call out to me and invited me to sit with them. I didn't know them at all but they somehow new my name. However, I seemed to know them in my dreams because I said that I'm coming and sat in the middle of them. Then the red carts started and we drove out of the cave in the roller coaster. We then took some steady hills and sharp turns, and I was feeling great and calm. Then we went onto this curve upside down, stayed there for a couple of seconds, then went on. We then rode through an aquarium. Then my dream ended, and it confuses me.

December 26 2016,
I had a dream that me and my friend were on a Rollercoaster. A friend I don't really like, but I don't show that. We were on a giant purple Rollercoaster and I remember me and my friend step on an unsafe part of the ride then my teacher stopping me and my friend. The first time we went I told her I left my phone back. She kept telling me to take a picture take a picture. So I tired to but her phone is all weird so I couldn't find it. She got frustrated and told me to hold her wallet. She showed me where to find the picture and I could tell by the movement of her finger she was not the happiest. The ride was slow and horrible, I told her this too. When the ride was over I remember people boarding off. Then the next thing I knew the ride started again for me and my friend. I couldn't see her face but I think we were both somewhat frightened because our seatbelt were off. My dream clouded by this time and the least I could remember is that she was still mad at me. Me and her were holding on for dear life. I got frustrated because I didn't want to hold her wallet, it hers and I don't want to slip. I tried pushing the wallet into her waist. She tried grabbing it and dropped it with the contents spilling out. I almost felt bad. "This all you Janelle. Don't blame me for it." She said angrily. When the ride was over I was utterly mad at the people.
"Our seatbelt were off!" I yelled at one of the operators and she had a shocked face and her hands up to her mouth. And a few more moments happened that I can't remember and then I woke up all freaked. Can someone please tell me what this means.

I have a reoccurring nightmare, I'm in a rollercoaster and as we hit the loop de loop the bar breaks and only my feet hooked in the arm keep me from falling out. I've had this since I was 10. Every time I end up locking up my calf muscles. Any ideas?

I once had a dream that me and my crush were on a rollarcoaster and half way through it just before a massive drop he asked me out and as we were going down the drop i was screaming yeeeeeeessssssss.
Im not sure what this means but i do really want it to happen i have an idea of why it was on a rollarcoaster though, because my school went to movieworld one day and he asked me and my friend if we wanted to be in his grouo and we said yes but then we ended up going into another group. Then when we were lining up for that rollar coaster he asked if he could hop with me in the line because we were at the front. But my friend said no.
Can you please help me figure out what this means. (Btw the whole part after the laughing emoji actually happened).

In my dream, my wife and I were on an indoor roller coaster. We made it half way and the ride stalled and we got off to see hospital rooms along side the tracks. We get back in to see kittens all over the tracks, so we try to save them. The kittens seem to be safe, but the ride starts again as soon as we get back in our seat. The coaster track abruptly ends and skins us and our coaster cars down the road. We make it to a stop and walk back to file a complaint, but the people over the amusement park don't want to help us. But as we wait on them to assess the ride the more people are slung off.

I had 2 dreams about riding the same roller coaster. The first dream was I was riding it with my mom. The second one, I was riding with both my parents. My first dream ended when we reached the top of the really sharp incline. My second dream, the rollet coaster has 3 loops but I only felt 2. I wonder what that means..

I was nervous to go on this rollercoaster and I had the dream about it a of couple times. I would get off it every time and think how ridiculous I was to be scared to go on it. When I actually went on the ride a few weeks later everything seemed familiar like I have been on it before and I had the exact same feelings on the ride that I had in my dream. Upside down I felt pressed into my seat and the takeoff was so fast that it was hard to remember it, just like in the dream. Afterwards I even felt like the rollercoaster was really tame and how ridiculous I felt being a little scared to go on at first. Whenever I dream about going on rollercoasters even now I can feel the drops and acceleration. Dreams are weird sometimes...

I dreamed I was riding a roller coaster as I held on to the seat belt, never buckled it and never falling went up and down, afterwards I saw a lady hanging from a net like object waiting, all of a sudden I saw a person but I could not recognize where I worked at with her but I did remember her face, we started talking about an old position I held with a previous employer and than as I looked to my left there was a person with a water hose spraying me with water and the co-worker or someone said you have to get the chlorine off you so get closer to the water and I woke up to my boyfriend calling my phone saying I sent you a text saying I Love you but after I did not respond he called and said I love you. What does this mean

I've had the same roller coaster (doesn't exist) in my dreams multiple times. Every time I get on with my sister, and I strap her down to the seat worried something will happen. But I take so long strapping her down that when I get on the coaster starts without me putting my seat belt on. It's the same dream I've had many times and for many years! It doesn't even exist!

The sale will not come in 1986, he said, because French parliamentary elections, shrouded in uncertainties, are scheduled then. Neither the number of shares nor the price was announced. Industry observers estimate that the company`s gross worldwide sales total about $1 billion a year, including sales of perfume.

Sharks edge Loftus battle
The Sharks secured a home semifinal with a tense 18-16 victory in a physical battle with the Blue Bulls at Loftus Versfeld.
The home side scored the only try of the game and held the lead going into the last five minutes, but a late Butch James penalty saw the Sharks snatch victory at the end.
The visitors were shown two yellow cards and were put under pressure at scrum-time, but they squeezed out a victory to severely dent the Bulls' hopes of making the last four.
Veteran flank Jacques Botes equalled Helgard Muller's record of 142 Currie Cup caps, and he got involved early on by winning a turnover on his 22 and finding some space to put Heimar Williams over the advantage line.
The Sharks moved into the Bulls 22 where they put pressure on both their line-out and scrum, and after missing his first two shots at goal flyhalf Fred Zeilinga was finally able to give them an early lead with his third penalty attempt.
Sharks captain Keegan Daniel was playing in his 100th Currie Cup match and he knocked on from the restart to give Bulls flyhalf a chance to level things up at 3-3.
The Sharks were back ahead straight away when Wian Liebenberg obstructed Cobus Reinach next to a ruck in the 22. The Sharks scrumhalf almost followed that up with a try when he charged a kick from Pollard, but he was beaten to the ball by Bjorn Basson.
The home side were on the back foot, and found themselves scrambling on defence in their 22 as the Sharks took the game to them.
Despite their dominance the Sharks could not take advantage and soon found themselves defending their own tryline as the Bulls declined the shot at goal and kicked it into the corner.
But they too came away without anything to show for it, and the Sharks were next to score with Zeilinga having found his radar off the kicking tee.
A big scrum from the Bulls saw Pollard reduce the deficit to 9-6, and the visitors were struck a further blow just before half-time when Botes was shown a yellow card for repeated infringements at the breakdown.
Despite being down to 14 men the Sharks were first to score in the second half through another Zeilinga penalty before making a host of changes as Butch James, Charl McLeod, Danie Mienie and Marcell Coetzee all entered the fray with 30 minutes left.
The Bulls responded by launching an attack in the 22 with a line-out and a scrum just short of the tryline, but the Sharks held out again as they turned the tables at scrum-time.
However, the visitors were reduced to 14 men again when Jean Deysel was sent to the sin bin for going offside at a maul.
That gave the Bulls the boost they needed as they hurled themselves at the Sharks in a few waves before Francois Venter planted the ball on the line for the first try.
Pollard's conversion gave the Bulls the lead for the first time in the match, and with a one-man advantage they were firmly in the driving seat.
A powerful driving maul brought them within range, and once it was brought down by the Sharks Pollard gladly punished them with his penalty stretching the lead to 16-12.
The Sharks hit back with a penalty from Butch James, which set the match up for a thrilling finish with the Bulls ahead 16-15 with ten minutes to play as Deysel returned.
It was frantic stuff as both teams made basic errors with the game in the balance and it was Bulls lock Paul Willemse who gave away the crucial penalty for not rolling away in front of the poles.
James slotted the penalty and the Sharks held on for a tense victory which means they will be playing their semifinal at Kings Park.
Man of the match: It was a highly physical match as is tradition between these two teams, and the Sharks relied heavily on big Jean Deysel to put the opposition on the back foot on both attack and defence.

For the Blue Bulls:
Try: Venter
Con: Pollard

Meadows Museum under new leadership
SHREVEPORT, LA — Dr. Lisa Nicoletti and Professor Bruce Allen '75 were recently appointed as interim co-directors of Centenary's nationally accredited Meadows Museum of Art. Nicoletti will serve as the Head of Collections and Research while Allen will serve as the Head of Logistics & Exhibition Design.
Dr. Lisa Nicoletti
"Dr. Nicoletti and Professor Allen bring both experience and fresh ideas that will be advantageous to the future of the Meadows Museum," said Dr. Edward Ragan, Director of Educational Outreach. "Under their leadership, we have a rare opportunity to reconceptualize the museum's potential and better engage our students, faculty, and community members across the region with our events and exhibitions."
Nicoletti has been teaching at Centenary since 1999 and is currently Professor of Art History and Visual Studies. She received her BA from Augsburg College, an MA in English from the University of Minnesota-Duluth, and an MA and PhD in Art History from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. She actively publishes on museum exhibitions and art and manages Centenary's Museum Management Program.
Professor Bruce Allen
Allen began his work with the Museum in 1976 as an undergraduate student intern. After receiving his BA and BS from Centenary and an MFA from the University of Wyoming, he returned to join Centenary's faculty, where he currently leads the Department of Art and Visual Culture as Chair. Allen has also served as the first Curator of the Meadows under Director Willard Cooper, the Director of the Magale Library Gallery in 1983, and Coordinator of the Turner Art Gallery in 1987.
Nicoletti and Allen join Office Manager and Internal Accountant Neeta Kaji, who has overseen accounts as well as general office operations since 2001. Kaji is a 1979 graduate of the University of Bombay.
The team looks forward to expanding student contact with the Museum and its substantial collection to give students More in Four. Students will be working with visiting artists and guest curators in their classes and receiving valuable career experience in exhibition design, planning, and installation.
The Meadows Museum of Art is located on the campus of Centenary College at 2911 Centenary Boulevard and is free and open to the public. The Museum was established on the College's 150th anniversary in 1975, and was made possible through a gift from alumnus Algur H. Meadows. For more information, visit the Meadows Museum online or call 318.869.5169.

I remember.
I remember being just barely seventeen, immersed in my own world. School, boys, fitting in.
I remember walking the halls before school started and hearing someone say "Someone flew a plane into a building in New York City!"
I remember rolling my eyes. Why would someone say something like that?
I remember walking into my first class to see my least favorite teacher with tears in her eyes as she stared at the television.
I remember finally not hating her, for at least a short time.
I remember that soul-wrenching fear for my best online friend, who lived in Manhattan.
I remember running to the payphone as soon as that first period class was over, calling my mother and saying "Mom, turn on CNN."
I remember doing nothing that day in school, save watch the television. Except for my Sixth Period math class. Mrs. Pace made us go on like normal.
I remember being resentful of that at the time, but now I am thankful for it.
I remember getting home and feeling absolute relief when a message was passed on to me, that despite his internet obviously being out, my friend and his family was safe.
I remember thinking that I was almost glad my father hadn't lived to see it, as it would have broken his heart.
I remember the patriotic fervor.
I remember the flags.
I remember my own knee-jerk reaction, that perhaps I should join the Navy after high school, so I could fight these horrible people.
…and I remember the racism. The casual hateful words thrown out by my peers— all children parroting their parents.
I remember it being completely okay to say "towel head."
I remember the attacks on people that simply looked "Middle Eastern."
I remember— and I still see, the absolute hatred of anyone of Arabic descent, immediately judged just on how they look, where they come from.
I remember being judgmental myself.
I remember the fear, the uncertainty, the confusion. I remember the anger, the knee-jerk reactions.
I remember the thousands who died on American soil, and the hundreds of thousands overseas who all died due to the actions and ideals of just a few.
I remember.

Nicole Kidman and her husband, Keith Urban, have welcomed their first child together, a daughter named Sunday Rose Kidman Urban, born Monday morning in Nashville, PEOPLE has confirmed. "Husband Keith was by Nicole's side, and mother and baby are very well," said spokesman Paul Freundlich, who added that the couple were "delighted" to make the announcement. He also said the baby girl weighed 6 lbs., 7.5 oz.
The pregnancy was first announced in January. Kidman has two other children with her former husband Tom Cruise: Isabella, 15, and Connor, 13. In the days leading up to the birth, the couple – who celebrated their second wedding anniversary on June 25 – didn't stray from their normal routine in and around Nashville, where they reside in a gated community.
From early morning stops at a local Starbucks for warm drinks to a little sweat at the gym later in the day (Kidman was a regular at spin and yoga classes during her pregnancy), the couple remained low-key. "She's never been happier and healthier," says a close family friend. "She is absolutely radiant and enjoying nesting and homemaking with Keith at their new home in Nashville." But getting ready for their baby was a priority.
Urban admitted he was learning a new vocabulary for fatherhood and doing Lamaze lessons. "He doesn't know the name [of the classes], but he has been very good at it!" Kidman told a local radio station on June 24. The new parents also bought a couple of books to help them along: Pocket Dad: Everyday Wisdom and Your Pregnancy, Week By Week. "The unknown excites me a lot," Urban told reporters in May. "What kind of feelings will fatherhood bring? I'm sure I can't even imagine, but I am really looking forward to finding out."
Sim, que nomes mais vão inventar estas celebridades?
Apple, Suri, Shiloh, Kingston, Brooklyn, Cruz... e esta criança chama-se Sunday (Domingo!?!?? Que depressão, ao menos que fosse Friday ou Saturday!)

We are thrilled to announce the results of the third round of The Blue Room Theatre's LOFT initiative. In this round, nine applications were submitted, with a total request of $209,148, and four projects were funded. These projects include three creative developments – Overnight from The Skeletal System, Rhubarb from Clare Testoni, and The Renegade Church from Renegade Productions; and a presentation of an existing work – Ecosexual Bathhouse from Pony Express. The total amount of funding distributed in this round is $63,805.
These projects join previous LOFT recipients The Elders Project, Those who fall in love like anchors dropped upon the ocean floor, Gareth of the Antarctic, Project Xan and Wild Wild Love. The Blue Room Theatre would like to thank our peer assessors who sat on this third panel for their time and effort in deliberating this round: Chi Vu (Writer & Director), Clare Watson (Artistic Director, Black Swan State Theatre Company), and Ben Winspear (Associate Artist, Griffin Theatre Company).
Ecosexual Bathhouse (Pony Express)
Presentation of an Existing Work ($14,504) – From 24 – 28 Jan 2017 Pony Express will rehearse and remount Ecosexual Bathhouse for their WA premiere at the Perth Institute of Contemporary Arts. Ecosexual Bathhouse is an immersive experience inviting you to leave the urban wasteland behind and open yourself up to an intimate encounter with the biosphere. Experiment with pollination, unwind in the sauna or be guided by a bathhouse regular toward your own organic awakening. Ecosexual Bathhouse explores a radical environmentalism where the political becomes very personal.
Overnight (The Skeletal System)
Creative Development ($17,107) – Funding for the first draft and a nine day creative development of Overnight, a new work written by Will O'Mahony with the assistance of Adriane Daff, Eden Falk and James Berlyn. The development will be hosted by the State Theatre Centre of Western Australia and will culminate in an industry showing. Turning the 'boy-meets-girl' formula on its head, Overnight is an unlikely love story set against a world that is conditioned to hate. Exploring privilege, power and rehabilitation, Overnight will attempt to shine a light on what it means to be a pariah in our click-bait times. Inspired by Jon Ronson's So You've Been Publicly Shamed and Dr Mary Aitken's The Cyber Effect, Overnight asks what penance might look like in our new online courts.
Rhubarb (Clare Testoni)
Creative Development ($20,194) – A creative development to adapt Craig Silvey's critically acclaimed novel Rhubarb for the stage, written by Clare Testoni and directed by Jeffrey Jay Fowler. The development will result in a script which will undergo a workshop process, culminating in a showing for potential presentation partners. The goal of the development is to create a piece of theatre accessible to both sighted and visually impaired audiences with support from City of Fremantle and in consultation with Visibility WA.
The Renegade Church (Renegade Productions)
Creative Development ($12,000) – The Renegade Church is an audience participatory performance work that reimagines the elements of a traditional religious service to 'preach secular sermons'. These interactive sermons will ask the audience to reject nihilism and tribal world views, and ultimately promote social consciousness and the thoughtful critique and interaction within society. With the support of LOFT, Joe Lui will undertake a writing and concept development with mentorship from pvi's Steve Bull.

Thank You!
Your votes and comments encourage our guide authors to continue
creating helpful guides for the League of Legends community.
Early game: Warwick jungles, Heimerdinger solo middle, Morgana 2v1 in top or bottom lane while Soraka and Amumu 2v2 in the other. Alternative, Morgana solo middle, Heimerdinger 2v1.
Midgame: Warwick kills dragon and attempts midgame ganks (level 6-9) while other heroes hold lane. Soraka and Heimerdinger assist other lanes as needed.
Late game: Team travels together as much as possible, with Heimerdinger solo pushing lanes if needed. Warwick continues killing dragon and getting jungle runes when possible. Amumu initiates team battles and tanks with ult while Soraka supplies heals. Morgana and Warwick use their ults for additional disables and Heimerdinger uses grenades to help burn disabled enemies.
Soraka provides Clairvoyance to help guard from jungle ganks and to help Warwick maintain map control. Warwick has Fortify so that turrets can survive surprise attacks, with Heimerdinger providing additional passive turret defense when needed. Morgana uses Ignite to help versus healers. Heimerdinger uses Exhaust to help catch fleeing opponents or disable and weaken melee carries during team fights.

The institution would claw back £600,000 a year by extending tutorials – known as supervisions – to two or more students, it was revealed.
But the move – outlined by a university working group tasked with drawing up savings – has been criticised by academics who fear it could jeopardise Cambridge's world-class reputation.
One-to-one tutorials between students and academies are unique to Oxford and Cambridge and are seen as vital to the universities' standing as global leaders.
Around 13 per cent of Cambridge tutorials are one-to-one.
But a paper drawn up by the university's working group on organisational and financial efficiency warns that the cost of the system "continues to rise" and may not be sustainable.
According to figures, the university already makes a loss on each student admitted because of an imbalance between the cost of tuition and the amount the institution receives in student fees and Government grants. This year, it has been forced to subsidise each undergraduate to the tune of £9,000 – an overall shortfall of around £108m.
Oxford makes a similar loss each year.
Despite a rise in tuition fees, it is feared that the funding gap could grow after the Government announced that the higher education budget would be slashed from £7.1bn to £4.2bn by 2014.
John Rallison, Cambridge's pro-vice-chancellor for education, said the university needed to be "open to other forms of teaching to complement supervisions and lectures, including seminars and group teaching, and the use of online material".
He said the review recommended that one-to-one supervisions should be restricted to dissertations, portfolios and project work "where students genuinely need individual teaching".
"Like all universities, Cambridge needs to contain costs," he said. "Against an increase in supervision costs of two per cent per student per year in real terms in each of the last five years, a recent review of the supervision system has recommended that colleges and departments work together to agree guidelines for the number of supervisions a student might normally expect to receive, and to keep these norms under annual review."
Gill Evans, emeritus professor of medieval theology and intellectual history at Cambridge, claimed that axing individual supervisions would spell the end of the "unique Oxbridge experience".
"The personal and intellectual engagement of a one-to-one supervision is worth 25 'big gang' lectures," she told The Guardian. "This kind of individual contact is why Oxbridge graduates are so articulate and good at analysis – they have had to fight their corner."
A consultation on the changes is currently taking place.

Online streaming services are a great option for Australian TV watchers to catch up on missed shows and Yahoo7′s PLUS7 service is proof of that, with one million app downloads so far and 4.5 million full episode streams in the last month.
ABC's iView, SBS's On Demand, Ninemsn's Jump-in and Network TEN's TENplay have also offered viewing flexibility and allowed Australian TV lovers to catch up on episodes missed.
The growing popularity of streaming services is epitomised by the year-on-year growth seen by PLUS7, which saw a 50 percent increase in full episode streams from April 2013.
Yahoo7′s PLUS7 is available on iOS, Samsung Apps and Google Play free of charge.

A gun store in East Windsor, Connecticut that sold two of the firearms found after the Newtown massacre recently saw its license revoked by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) after inspections found hundreds of willful violations of federal regulations on weapons sales.
While the sales of an AR-15 and Sig Sauer handgun to the Newtown shooter's mother were not illegal, an ATF report given to WFSB-TV reporter Len Besthoff explained that employees of Riverview Gun Sales knowingly sold weapons and ammunition to people who said they had committed felonies or were involved in domestic violence.
In another instance cited by the ATF, the store's employees allegedly failed to do a background check on a purchaser until a day after a gun was sold. Others were sold weapons without any background checks at all — for a total of "over 500" different violations — despite 11 different occasions from 2004-2010 of ATF agents providing instructions on how to comply with federal regulations.
"The large number of repeat violations demonstrates that, the licensee and his employees purposefully disregarded and/or were plainly indifferent to their Gun Control Act obligations," the document (PDF) explains.
This video is from WFSB-TV, aired Wednesday, April 10, 2013.

Gentlemen, wedding season is nearly upon us. It's a largely celebratory time full of free food, open bars and shameless electric sliding. Unfortunately, there a vicious scourge sweeping the nation that threatens to destroy the revelry of holy matrimony. It's the hackneyed best man speech and we're here to stop it.
For years, men used their best man speeches to compliment the bride on her beauty, extend well wishes to the newlyweds and thank the poor bastard writing the check. But at some point in the past 15 years that changed. Best men started thinking they were Jeff Ross, turning the toast into a roast and recycling stale one-liners like they were beer cans. Enough. There's certainly room for humor in a best man speech, but not cliche, and certainly not obscenity. Here's what a best man speech should be:
This pink vested ball of emotion can't get through one sentence without clearing his throat. As he continues his speech it's clear why. To our man here, the groom was the older brother he never had. That's something worth getting emotional over. Also, take note of how pink vest deals with his emotions. He keeps talking, mocks himself and ends the speech wishing the couple happiness. He's done his job.
Look, there's nothing wrong with making people laugh with a best man speech. There is something wrong with Googling "best man jokes" and building your speech around those. This baldheaded fellow with a smooth voice chose to write a song for his brother. Let's ignore the homophobic overtones for a moment and appreciate what is likely the most unique best man roast ever delivered.
In Your Wheelhouse
In our age of crowdsourcing it's easy to go on Reddit or Yahoo Answers and find some nervous schmuck declaring himself shy and asking for tips on how to deliver a best man speech. Those guys should take advice from this guy. As it says in the YouTube description, this best man is "definitely not a great public speaker." So rather than speak publicly, he recorded an inner monologue and acted it out. It's a sly idea, capped perfectly when he says the only spoken words of his speech: "I love both of you guys with all of my heart. This is a great occasion. Let's party."
Brothers are such assholes to each other that it's often hard to deliver a loving toast to the guy who spent a decade shoving you in a hamper. Ask a brother to be his sister's best man though, and he'll come through. At least this guy did. Mr Bowtie here delivers a downright beautiful speech, complete with a few tears and plenty of emotionally fraught pauses. Also, a piece of advice to the groom: Be nice to Liz.
It's ok to be stumped by a best man speech. Emotions are hard for men. But rather than swinging too hard away from sincerity and going for irreverence, deliver President Bill Pullman's speech from Independance Day, complete with backing music.

Too much happening today. I was just reminded by a letter from Gene Pfeifer of a tip I'd received earlier that County Judge Buddy Villines intended to have a hurryup Quorum Court meeting Thursday and vote on his plan to sink $20 million in county road and bridge money into a design dust-catcher on the state Highway and Transportation Department's stay-busy project to replace the Broadway Bridge. The design looks OK, if not spectacular, but Villines' tricolor paint job is an aesthetic bridge too far.
I heard earlier today about the fast track from the northern reaches of the county, where tying up county road money for several years has real consequences. It's of little concern in the major cities in the county who don't depend on the county for road maintenance. Though people in the city, like Pfeifer, have opinions, too. His:
The presently designed AHTD bridge contains bike/ped lanes of inadequate width, according to studies performed by Metroplan, our regional professional planners. Buddy's bridge has wider lanes. But the AHTD designed bridge could have lanes of adequate width and Garver Engineers has estimated this might cost $2-$4 million. This functional improvement would be a worthy expenditure and the Quorum Court should approve this contribution to the AHTD.
The necessity of replacing the Broadway Bridge has focused the community on bridge design and whether to spend extra funds over and above the AHTD budget to enhance the appearance of the bridge. I realize the once in a lifetime opportunity presented for spending $20 million dollars on this bridge. But we have not had any county-wide brainstorming over whether there are greater opportunities to increase our quality of life and attract more tourism by spending this money elsewhere. Let's have a discussion about other opportunities for that money.
Here's confirmation of the meeting, a notice of the specially called meeting. JPs got it about 4:30 p.m. Villines lists 10 sponsors, enough for special meeting approval if all are in place and vote.

Actually, if you take the Gnostic viewpoint, sex has a dual purpose....Reproduction and Ascension / Salvation.
The tradition is to have actual matrimonial intercourse while resonating love, and instead of committing the "animal spasm", the orgasm, one strongly guards those waters which have been blessed below and instead of releasing them, (which would holds the potential power to create an entirely new sentient being), one guides those (now blessed with love) waters up the spine.. al l33 vertebrae (33 yrs of Christ's life, 33 degrees of masonry) to the place of the skull (Golgotha) to baptize the head at the throne of god.. (the pineal gland)... which cascades hormones through the endocrine system causing a slow yet steady metamorphosis of the body into one of divine ability and immortality.
This is what all religions teach at the root level, albeit hidden in riddles and metaphor, for those with eyes to see.
And this, IMO, is why all corrupt religions decry this form of sex, and teach the opposite of truth, while practicing it in secret.

Communing with someone I love while accepting the possibility of babies sounds to me like taking a nice car ride into a tunnel, while knowing full well that there's a dead end in there and you aren't allowed to slow down. Pregnancy isn't a blessing for everyone, no matter how holy its supposed orchestrator was. It's one of my worst nightmares.
So, yeah. Sorry, religion, but I'm keeping at least three forms of birth control around if I ever choose to lose my virginity.edit on 24-6-2012 by EllaMarina because: (no reason given)

Sex was the Beginning. And you are right that sex is a natural function of human life, and also in Spiritual life. Only there there are no restrictions, and warm pools are all over for couples who wish to have sex. Sex is the universal language.

Semiconductor intellectual property core
This article needs additional citations for verification. (September 2016) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
In electronic design a semiconductor intellectual property core, IP core, or IP block is a reusable unit of logic, cell, or integrated circuit (commonly called a "chip") layout design that is the intellectual property of one party. IP cores may be licensed to another party or can be owned and used by a single party alone. The term is derived from the licensing of the patent and/or source code copyright that exist in the design. IP cores can be used as building blocks within application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) designs or field-programmable gate array (FPGA) logic designs.
The licensing and use of IP cores in chip design came into common practice in the 1990s. There were many licensors and also many foundries competing on the market. Today, the most widely licensed IP cores are from ARM Holdings (43.2% market share in 2013), Synopsys Inc. (13.9% market share in 2013), Imagination Technologies (9% market share in 2013) and Cadence Design Systems (5.1% market share in 2013).[1]
Types of IP cores[edit]
The IP core can be described as being for chip design what a library is for computer programming or a discrete integrated circuit component is for printed circuit board design.
Soft cores[edit]
IP cores are typically offered as synthesizable RTL. Synthesizable cores are delivered in a hardware description language such as Verilog or VHSIC hardware description language (VHDL). These are analogous to low level languages such as C in the field of computer programming. IP cores delivered to chip makers as RTL permit chip designers to modify designs (at the functional level), though many IP vendors offer no warranty or support for modified designs.
IP cores are also sometimes offered as generic gate-level netlists. The netlist is a boolean-algebra representation of the IP's logical function implemented as generic gates or process specific standard cells. An IP core implemented as generic gates is portable to any process technology. A gate-level netlist is analogous to an assembly-code listing in the field of computer programming. A netlist gives the IP core vendor reasonable protection against reverse engineering.
Both netlist and synthesizable cores are called "soft cores", as both allow a synthesis, placement and route (SPR) design flow.
Hard cores[edit]
Hard cores, by the nature of their low-level representation, offer better predictability of chip performance in terms of timing performance and area.
Analog and mixed-signal logic are generally defined as a lower-level, physical description. Hence, analog IP (SerDes, PLLs, DAC, ADC, PHYs, etc.) are provided to chip makers in transistor-layout format (such as GDSII). Digital IP cores are sometimes offered in layout format, as well.
Such cores, whether analog or digital, are called "hard cores" (or hard macros), because the core's application function cannot be meaningfully modified by chip designers. Transistor layouts must obey the target foundry's process design rules, and hence, hard cores delivered for one foundry's process cannot be easily ported to a different process or foundry. Merchant foundry operators (such as IBM, Fujitsu, Samsung, TI, etc.) offer a variety of hard-macro IP functions built for their own foundry process, helping to ensure customer lock-in.
Sources of IP cores[edit]
Licensed functionality[edit]
Many of the best known IP cores are soft microprocessor designs. Their instruction sets vary from small 8-bit processors, such as the 8051 and PIC to 32-bit and 64-bit processors such as the ARM architectures or MIPS architectures. Such processors form the "brains" of many embedded systems.
IP cores are also licensed for a variety of peripheral controllers such as for PCI Express, SDRAM, Ethernet, LCD display, AC'97 audio, and USB. Many of those interfaces require digital logic as well as analog IP cores to drive and receive high speed, high voltage, or high impedance signals outside of the chip.
"Hardwired" (as opposed to software programmable soft microprocessors described above) digital logic IP cores are also licensed for fixed functions such as MP3 audio decode, 3D GPU, digital video encode/decode, and other DSP functions such as FFT, DCT, or Viterbi coding.
IP core developers and licensors range in size from individuals to multibillion-dollar corporations. Developers, as well as their chip making customers are located throughout the world.
Silicon Intellectual Property (SIP, Silicon IP) is a business model for a semiconductor company where the company licenses its technology to a customer as intellectual property. This is a type of fabless semiconductor company which doesn't provide physical chips to its customers but merely facilitates the customer's development of chips by offering certain functional blocks. Typically, the customers are semiconductor companies or module developers with in-house semiconductor development. A company wishing to fabricate a complex device may purchase the rights to use another company's well-tested functional blocks such as a microprocessor, instead of developing their own design which would take additional time and cost.
The Silicon IP industry is fairly new but with stable growth. The most successful Silicon IP companies, often referred to as the Star IP, include ARC International, ARM Holdings, Rambus and MIPS Technologies. Gartner Group estimated the total value of sales related to silicon intellectual property at US $1.5 billion in 2005, with annual growth expected around 30%.[2]
IP hardening[edit]
This article needs additional citations for verification. (July 2011) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
IP hardening is a process to re-use proven design, and generate fast time-to-market, low-risk-in-fabrication solutions to provide Intellectual property (IP) (or Silicon intellectual property) of design cores.
For example, a DSP processor is developed from soft cores[clarification needed] of RTL (Register transfer level) format, and it can be targeted to various technologies or different foundries to yield different implementations. The process of IP hardening is from soft core to generate re-usable hard (hardware) cores[clarification needed]. A main advantage of such hard IP is its predictable characteristics as the IP has been pre-implemented, while it offers flexibility of soft cores. It might come with a set of models for simulations or verifications.
The effort input to harden the soft IP means quality of the target technology, goals of design and the methodology employed. The hard IP has been proven in the target technology and application. E.g. the hard core in GDS II format is said to clean in DRC (Design rule checking), and LVS (see Layout Versus Schematic). I.e. that can pass all the rules required for manufacturing by the specific foundry.[3][4]
Free and open-source[edit]
OpenCores.org offers a wide variety of designs, mostly written in VHDL and Verilog. All of these cores are provided under some free and open-source software-license, e.g. GNU General Public License or BSD-like licenses.[5]
Intellectual property aggregators keep catalogs of cores from multiple vendors and provide search and marketing services to their customers.

Robotics Seen as the Wave of the Future for Outpatient Surgery
LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwire - August 27, 2009) - oBand Surgery Centers, the nation's
leading bariatric network of
outpatient surgical facilities owned and operated by nationally recognized
Lap Band surgeons, has set a new
'first' in the use of robotics for outpatient surgery. oBand Director
of Robotic Surgery S. Adam Ramin, M.D., an assistant professor at City of
Hope National Medical Center, today announced they have performed the
world's first, outpatient robotic
surgery using the famed da
Vinci® Surgical System. Dr. Ramin performed the innovative surgery in
July in Los Angeles using Robotics to remove a patient's pelvic cyst.
oBand Chief Executive Officer Isaac Verbukh, M.D. states, "In our
continuing goal to stay on the leading edge of the surgical forefront,
oBand is providing a new era of safety and care to its patients. Using this
revolutionary robotic system, oBand plans to expand its outpatient
surgeries to treat prostate cancer, prostate enlargement, kidney cancer,
congenital kidney deformity, female pelvic prolapse and infertility."
Says Dr. Ramin, "Our pioneering procedure was the first robotic surgery
ever performed in an outpatient surgical center. This groundbreaking
approach will allow us to perform outpatient robotic surgeries for patients
with a wide range of different urologic illnesses. At oBand, we are
focused on providing the most innovative and least invasive surgical
procedures with the ultimate goal of patient safety and improved quality of
The da Vinci® System is a sophisticated robotic platform designed to
enable complex surgery using a minimally invasive approach. It consists of
an ergonomic surgeon's console, a patient-side cart with four interactive
robotic arms, a high-performance 3D HD vision system and proprietary
EndoWrist® instruments. Powered by state-of-the-art robotic technology,
the da Vinci® System is designed to scale, filter and seamlessly
translate the surgeon's hand movements into more precise movements of the
EndoWrist instruments. The net result is an intuitive interface with
breakthrough surgical capabilities.
Using robotics provides a multitude of benefits for patients including
improved safety, less risk, reduced trauma and pain, and faster recovery.
With more and more cases emerging of resistant bacterial infections in the
hospital setting, oBand's outpatient setting provides a controlled
environment reducing the patient's exposure to post operative infection as
compared to surgery performed in a hospital.
oBand Surgery Centers is headquartered in Westwood, CA, is fully accredited
by the American College of Surgeons, and is an Accredited Outpatient

This post is from GRS staff writer Donna Freedman. Donna writes a personal finance column for MSN Money, and writes about frugality and intentional living at Surviving And Thriving.
Have trouble saving money? Time for some mind games.
Hide cash via direct withdrawals. Get free money from banks. Name an account for a goal. Make your savings "one-way,†i.e., really hard to tap.
The unemployed and underemployed may feel — with good reason! — that they can't afford to save. Even those with decent salaries might feel squeezed by the rising cost of basic needs like food and utilities, especially if they're repaying student loans.
Here's a cold, hard fact: You need to save anyway — and not just for an emergency fund, but also to augment your eventual retirement. (And when you're my age, "eventual†is closer than it may appear in the rear-view mirror.)
Maybe you really do need need every dime to keep creditors at bay. Or maybe a little budget-tweaking could free up some extra bucks for your Someday Fund. Even if it's just a tiny amount at a time, it's something.
Easy does it
The simplest way to save is to automate it. Have a small amount siphoned off each payday by your financial institution (I use an online bank for this) and learn to live on what's left. Increase the amount slowly — an hour's pay at a time, perhaps? — to give yourself time to adjust your spending.
See if you can get to the 20% mark suggested in the 50-30-20 budget. Since that 20% refers both to savings and debt repayment, get those cards paid off so you can salt away more at a time.
Incidentally, that does not mean exile to the Island of No Fun At All. The "30†in that plan allows for 30% of earnings to go to "wants.â€
Some ways to inch closer to the 20% savings mark:
- Save flexible-spending and/or work-related reimbursements. Set up direct deposit if possible. If not, make it a point to deposit the checks rather than cash them. And if you need that money to balance the books? Pledge to keep at least a dollar (preferably $5) of it in the account.
- Save your raises. That is, assuming you're lucky enough to get them. If you were already managing on what you earned, pretend you didn't get a raise. (Curse you, short-sighted bean-counters!) Then raise the biweekly (or whatever) automated savings.
- Save your bonus. That is, if you're super-double-lucky enough to get one. But give yourself permission to spend 10% of it on something you really want. Come on, you know you want to buy Stuff from time to time. Just about everybody does.
- Get symbolic. Want to retire at 50? Start depositing $50 a month, or per week if you can swing it. Make a weekly or monthly deposit equal to your current age; that's easy to sustain since it goes up just a buck a year.
- Drop a habit. It's tough to quit smoking or, for that matter, to stop buying so many comic books. But as you taper off, put what you would have spent on coffin nails or anime into long-term savings.
- Round'em up! Not cattle — coins. When you use your debit card or write a check, record it for the next dollar up (e.g., $7.29 becomes $8). At the end of the month, add up the differences and transfer it to savings.
- Challenge yourself. Take the dollar-bill challenge by removing the Washingtons from your wallet every night. Super-flush version: Take the $5 challenge. Super-tight-budget version: Save your coins and wrap them every so often.
- Bank your coupons. You saved $6 on the groceries? It's not savings unless you save it. Tuck away the amount you saved using manufacturers coupons and your supermarket customer loyalty card.
Every dollar — and every dream — has a name
One financial planner I interviewed sends his clients monthly "invoices†for their long-term goals, e.g., "pay cash for next car†or "comfortable retirement.†Think of your savings account as a line item on your budget, and pay it along with the rest of your bills.
Another planner told me her mom always said, "Every dollar has a name.†Those bucks had some pretty prosaic names: Rent, Utilities, Groceries. But the lesson stuck, and the little girl grew up to include a name in her own monthly budget: "Savings.â€
My own experience with naming was not a line item but a targeted account called "Home.†(As in, "a home of my own some day.â€) I started it with one of those "free money from banks†deals and beefed up the account with any extra cash I got: manufacturer rebates, a little holiday bonus, wrapped coins, babysitting jobs, pet-sitting gigs, mystery shopping.
Whether you do long-term savings as a budget line item or as a targeted account, you're giving your dollars a name. You're sending them to a specific area to do a specific job. You're being proactive about your financial future rather than just heaving greenbacks toward that amorphous entity called The Bills.
A glimpse of the future
Maybe you need a more tangible reminder of your goal. Some people slip photos of their kids between the cellophane and the cigarette pack to bolster their efforts to stop smoking. I've also heard of folks who rubber-band pictures of their dreams (new house, Mini Cooper, whatever) to their credit cards to discourage in-the-moment spending.
I once interviewed a woman who created a computer-drawn design of her dream kitchen. Then she pinned up the picture by her desk as a reminder of why she needed to save. It worked: She paid cash for the remodel.
Another woman I spoke with changed an online shopping account password to the year her kid would start college and the preferred university's acronym. Retail therapy wasn't nearly as important when the sign-on became something like "2014UCLA.†It was a sobering reminder that baby needed textbooks much more than mama needed a new pair of shoes.
These same tactics could work when the goal is beefing up savings vs. getting yourself some gorgeous granite countertops. Personally, I recommend solid-surface counters. Some of that counterfeit stone is so good you could take it for granite. (Sorry. I couldn't resist.)
Hands off!
Make it tough to touch your funds and they'll remain safe from moments of temporary insanity. (Back away from the comic book store! Hands where we can see 'em!) I've got a few suggestions for isolating your dough:
- Opt for inconvenience. Don't pick the bank or credit union with a branch in your neighborhood. You don't want it to be easy to get at this money. There's no need to go there in person because you're using direct deposit. (Aren't you?) Again, this is not for liquid funds but rather for the long-term scratch.
- Choose an online bank. That way it takes a couple of days to get the money. You might come to your senses by then and realize that investing in Action Comics futures might not be the best use of your funds. Bonus frugal points for putting the buckage into laddered CDs; there are penalties for early withdrawal but since the CDs mature on a regular schedule you could access some money in a true pinch.
- Don't get an ATM card. Ever have one of those days when you think, "I don't care! I've been good for too long! I'm gonna get all the Green Lantern books — and maybe a Slurpee, too!†If you had to drive to the financial institution and fill out a withdrawal slip, you might have time to realize that the expense is not strictly necessary.
But don't save every dime. You need categories like "discretionary spending†or "riotous living†in your budget, too. (Or just cut to the chase and create a line item called "bail bondsman.â€) Spend it any way you like — but once it's gone, that's it until the next pay period.
If you don't spend it all, you have the choice of depositing it into savings. While it can be really satisfying to watch that balance increase, I'd caution against banking the surplus every month. Live too close to the bone for too long and you might eventually knock yourself off the wagon. Allow for some wants along with the needs and you'll find it easier to stay within the budget the rest of the time.
We all need goals
In a perfect world you wouldn't need a bag of pecuniary tricks. You'd just pay yourself first as a matter of course. Life isn't perfect, though. Some days it's not even above-average.
Don't feel you have to do it all. You won't get kicked out of the movement if you don't embrace every frugal hack extant. Sometimes it's still hard for me to spend money, but I recognize that I need to loosen up lest I reflect the worst attributes of Hetty Green (miserliness) without any of the advantages (shrewd business sense, huge net worth).
Thus I don't lose any sleep if I neglect to bank my coupon savings or to save every dollar bill that comes my way. In fact, my "Home†account is no more — at least as a private entity. When I got mugged a few months ago I had to redo my bank accounts since my personal information had been compromised. I realized it didn't really make sense to have a separate account, so I merged it with my regular savings.
Yet it still exists in my mind as the seed money for a smallish house with a decent southern exposure for gardening (mostly things I can eat) and a front porch swing. We all need goals. The possibility of homegrown tomatoes keeps me tucking away the savings. But I make sure to shake loose a few bucks for the bail bondsman fund, too.

Hello Chris, others, [I'm copying this to the uri list and the iri list to make sure the necessary coordination/discussion happens.] This seems to be a conflict between some changes to RFC2396bis and some new uri scheme registrations. Limiting the 'authority' part of URIs to DNS hostnames seemed a good idea in March at the URI BOF at the IETF in SF. But this SMB scheme seems to be at least one scheme that would like to have it differently. Are there other such schemes?

Range DescriptionThe Yellow-backed Duiker has the widest distribution of the forest duikers, ranging from south-western Senegal through all West African countries to south-western Sudan and south-west Uganda, south to northern Angola (including Cabinda) and Zambia; they also occur in the Mau forest in south-west Kenya (Kingdon and Lahm in press). They are now considered extinct in The Gambia (East 1999), although whether they actually ever formerly occurred is uncertain (Grubb et al. 1998). They were thought to have been extirpated from Rwanda (East 1999), but have been confirmed as surviving in the Nyungwe Forest (F. Mulindahabi and A. Vedder pers. comm.).

Actor Paul Iacono is glad he decided to 'come out' as gay in a recent magazine interview because he feels as if "a weight has been lifted" since opening up about his sexuality.
The Hard Times Of RJ Berger star made the revelation in a candid chat with The Village Voice, admitting he is attracted to girls, but "just attracted to guys much more".
Iacono reveals he felt compelled to make the announcement to help younger fans struggling with their own sexuality, and he is glad he chose to be honest with the public.
He tells MTV News, "I feel really good. I feel like a weight has been lifted that I didn't know was there. I've been out with my friends and family for five years, but coming out in a public forum like that is inspiring to myself and hopefully to other people.
"I think at the moment, we need to have gay pride, because there are so many people who don't feel as comfortable as I do. And it's taken me a very long time to get to be comfortable about it, but it's our duty to the community to step forward and be vocal. I'm gay, it's cool."

Peter Mulryan looks at the increasingly rare art of triple distillation
The theory is simple. You put your wash into a pot still and gently turn up the heat. Alcohol boils at a lower temperature than water, so it's the first to evaporate. This liquid is collected and the process happens all over again, then again. In other words it does exactly what is says on the tin; the wash is distilled three times, rather than twice. In Ireland that second still is called the feints still, in Scotland the intermediary still.
What comes out the far end is a more alcoholic new make spirit, usually between 80 to 85% abv, as opposed to the 68 to 70% typical of double distillation. But if that's all there is to it, then this article would end here. And clearly it doesn't.
Historically, this kind of distillation has been associated with Ireland and the Scottish Lowlands. Both, coincidentally, locations where the whisky industry suffered greatly during the first part of the 20th century.
The Scottish Lowlands, with a softer landscape, typically produced a softer whisky than the Highlands or islands, and in the Glasgow area a lot of it was triple-distilled. Barnard visited 36 Lowland plants, but these days just three remain; Glenkinchie, the doughty Bladnoch and Auchentoshan, Scotland's last remaining distillery to practise the ancient art of triple distillation.
"I wouldn't say we're the last of a dying breed, more that our continued existence is a sign of our success," says Ronnie Learmond, Distillery Manager at Auchentoshan. "Personally, I believe that ...

The Fontana Bath Shower Mixer from Infinity combines a low structure with a long spout projection of 132mm.
It comes complete with a shower hose, square pencil shower head and a wall mounting bracket.
Eye-Catching Design:
Its unique design of square columns with smooth rounded handles complements the chrome beautifully and works to make this an eye-catching piece.
Ceramic Disc Technology:
Infinity have created this tap with durability in mind as it boasts ceramic disc technology to prevent dripping. Ceramic discs have been introduced to replace rubber washes which were prone to cracking and were common in old taps.
With old taps you'd screw the head into the body and the rubber washer would eventually wear out. This would mean that you'd have to screw the tap tighter and tighter to operate it.
Unlike rubber washers, ceramic discs only require ¼ turn of the tap to work, so will not wear out.
Versatile Tap:
This versatile tap is suitable for use with flow regulators and all plumbing systems. It requires a minimum 0.2 bar pressure system.
Buy With Peace of Mind:
When purchasing from Infinity you can shop with confidence as their bath taps have WRAS approved water fittings and come with a 10 year manufacturer guarantee.

Find the model number on a Copeland compressor on a label with a barcode, which should be somewhere on the air tank. The 12-digit model number is just above the top barcode and begins with either a "C" or "Z."Continue Reading
If the label with the model number is no longer on the unit, you may be able to formulate an approximate number for ordering parts or maintenance by identifying a few key factors. For example, Copeland's reciprocating compressors all start with "C" in the model number, and scroll compressors start with "Z." The next digit is either a "P" for R410a refrigerant or "R" for R22 refrigerant. The following two numbers represent the capacity and multiplier for the unit. For a complete breakdown of what each digit position in the model number means, consult the Copeland model number deciphering guides on HVACPartsOutlet.com or EmersonClimate.CustHelp.com.Learn more about Refrigerators & Freezers
