Kinda freak the office out. I told them i got cut by the wood from the box, then they went to the working table and saw a metal piece attached to the box.
So my office manager (Yu Shi Fu) drove me to the hospital and i had my colleague to accompany me. oh man, i kept tearing cause it was real pain. End up, he cleaned the wound and it felt better. I had to take a injection, so they injeculated a minor dosage to the surface of my skin first to test if i am allegic. I had to eat food to make the circulation better. So my colleague fed me.

Colorado recently passed three new gun-control laws that change how residents can buy and keep guns and related equipment legally. The laws have raised a number of questions among gun buyers, dealers, and others, according to a recent article in the Denver Post.
On March 20, Governor John Hickenlooper signed the three bills into law. One bill limits the size of ammunition magazines to 15 rounds. A second bill requires universal background checks for gun buyers, including background checks at gun shows and in other contexts where they were not previously required. A third bill requires that the prospective gun buyer pay the costs of his or her background check when buying a gun, which is currently $10.

Series: Harley Quinn and Her Gang Harley's #5
Publisher: DC Comics
Publication Date: August 31, 2016
Source: Bought
Goodreads Synopsis:
This is it-the story you've been waiting for: the secret origin of comic's newest, deadliest and most insanest villainess, Harley Sinn! Why is she so obsessed with Harley? How did she manage to become a super-villain? And what is her connection to the Gang of Harleys themselves? Find out this issue! Plus...Harley's still kidnapped! So there's that.
Mini Review:
It is a little weird that it took 5 issues before getting to the origin story of the main villain in this short run of comics and I actually really enjoyed learning about her.
I think that the build up in these previous issues has all been a little to crazy for me, but by learning about why this woman is a nut-job it actually pulls it all together. So I enjoyed this installment. Harley is in for some trouble though as she is tries to escape the clutches of this psychopath. But it is Harley and I have all the faith in her, especially with her gang helping her out. I cannot wait to see how the series concludes in the next issue. I am hoping for a lot out of it though, so we will see how it goes.

I must mention the absolute delight at the many meeting of the minds I experienced on my LA jaunt.
Here, a Listing-

to the Like Minded.
It was grand to Meet YOU.
What a delightful comment!
What a thrill to meet you!!
Thank you!!
It was a wonderful pleasure to finally meet you!
I thoroughly enjoyed your 5/5/5!
Thank you for including me in your post. I'm honored!
How lovely to be mentioned on your blog! It was such an enlightening experience to hear the Design lecture that the the four of you gave in Los Angeles. And then to meet you afterwards and chat about the "Divine Ottoline" was truly divine!ReplyDelete
Ah, your post on the Restoration Hardware tribute was much appreciated. Insipid and safe. I've noticed here on Nantucket that even the quarter boards being screwed to the old houses reflect a kind of expressionless caution. Names like Pfleuger's Roost and Castle Band Box are vanishing-- replaced by the dull and the safe: The Boat House, The Polpis Farmhouse, etc.
An enormous Victorian sofa, recovered in the late sixties or early seventies in a wonderful electric green textured wool stood abandoned on a sidewalk in town last week. How daring the color--how witty the juxtaposition of that 19th century stiff backed silhouette and that jazzy, and yes, dare I say, sophisticated upholstery. One could feel the aliveness, the wit of the personality who had made that choice. I heard later that one just like it in orange had already been hauled off to the dump. How sad to see it's mate there, the big house behind it gutted, awaiting the inevitable homogenization to come. Granite counter tops and miles and miles of that white ubiquitous bead board.
Anne, thank you. I love your description of that Victorian sofa-I conjure up Erica Wilson's colorful canvases. Whether it would be sentiment or a great EYE for Design, I could never send my Gran Mum's beloved sofa to any dump anywhere! Yes, banish the granite for colorful formica & paint the bead board or make it stripes, colored outside the Lines. pgtDelete
Ladies! You were all so lovely and supportive to come to the panel discussion! I so appreciate it. Great to MEET YOU ALL! GayeReplyDelete

Illinois residents look forward to getting out on the water to fish, water ski or just enjoy the summer weather. However, because boating is seen primarily as a way to relax and just have fun, it can be easy to forget that operating a boat is a responsibility that must be taken seriously.
This summer, beware of drunk boaters in Illinois
Wrong-way crashes and what Illinois drivers should know
Driving on city highways and rural roads may seem like two very different experiences, and they often are. However, when it comes to wrong-way driving accidents, the two can be more similar than you may think.
Getting from point A to point B not always easy for truckers
Regular motorists across Illinois rarely get in their vehicle without a GPS device or their cellphone handy. This is because when we need to get somewhere unfamiliar, we typically need the help of a map app and real-time directions. Over the years, these devices and products have greatly improved a driver's experience in getting from one place to another by identifying the shortest route, making notes of heavy traffic levels and even setting up alerts for police and crashes on the side of the road.
Ways to minimize risks of nursing home neglect
Too many people make the mistake of thinking that patients in a nursing home facility have no family members who want to care for them or have no family whatsoever. But the fact is that nursing home residents often have family members who love and care for them very much.

Jordan will replace Saudi Arabia on the Security Council for a two-year term starting in January after the Saudis' unprecedented rejection of the seat hours after they were elected, a UN diplomat said on Thursday.
The diplomat, speaking on condition of anonymity because the deal was made privately, said Jordan's UN Ambassador Prince Zeid Al Hussein was flying to Amman on Thursday night to discuss Jordan's new role on the UN's most powerful body.
Earlier this week, Jordan dropped its bid for a seat on the UN Human Rights Council, leaving Saudi Arabia a clear path in the now uncontested election next Tuesday.
The UN General Assembly, which voted on October 17 to give Saudi Arabia the seat traditionally reserved for an Arab nation on the council, will have to formally approve Jordan as a replacement. Since Jordan is almost certain to be the only candidate, its election is virtually assured.
Saudi Arabia's Foreign Ministry stunned the diplomatic world with the announcement that it was rejecting the seat, less than 24 hours after it was elected. The Saudis issued a scathing attack on the Security Council's failures to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the war in Syria, and to convene a conference on creating a zone in the Middle East free of weapons of mass destruction.
Jordan, which shares a border with Israel, has been a key behind-the-scenes player in efforts to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. US Secretary of State was in Amman on Thursday trying to rally support for his peace efforts from His Majesty King Abdullah II of Jordan and warning of a return to violence if peace efforts fail.
Jordan also shares a border with Syria and has become a major destination for refugees fleeing the 2 ½-year civil war. In April, Prince Zeid sent a letter to the Security Council saying the refugee crisis had sparked "a grave humanitarian situation" that threatens the country's security and stability.
"It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed."
"Envy comes from wanting something that isn't yours. But grief comes from losing something you've already had."

Seaside 2.9 and Comet to control replicated Croquet islands.
The main aim is: to allow multi-user interactions with shared content on the Croquet island just from web browser in real time (from any place, device like smart-phone, low-end machine (sometimes without OpenGL) etc. so, that a connection to the network and http web based browser just needed.
Also, it could help to implement open source "Forum pages" like features , which are existed only in Qwaq forums 2.0 (access recent activity from your web browser etc.).
I have prepared the ready-to-go image for those, who want to explore the infinite possibilities :)
1. CroquetSDK.v1.0.18 with new image.
2. Just one image for using with manual downloaded any Croquet SDK.
Also, I prepared the Script for loading Seaside 2.9 alpha updated (13-07-09) into any fresh OpenCroquet image (1.0.18 users should update from sources to the latest, or use this one Croquet.1.0.25 )
For examples look at SmotriniWorldControl class.
Here on the screen-shot there are two participants and two opened web browsers (Safari, Firefox).
Just only one participant run Seaside/Comet application.
Changing any of the RGB sliders (in one of browser window) causes the change of the active space color, and glad to Comet in all opened Web browsers slider's handles change their visual state automatically (without manual refreshing).
All callbacks from seaside to croquet island are future events, like from proper harness in Croquet, so they dose not destroy the replicated state.
onSlide: (html jQuery ajax
callback: [ :value |
aColor = #red ifTrue:[self class valueRGB red: value asNumber.
aFrame future color: (Color r: self class valueRGB red g: aFrame color green b: aFrame color blue)].
How to run:
1. Start WAListenerAdaptor (support Comet Seaside applications)
WAListenerAdaptor startOn: 8888. (different ports for several participants, if needed)
2. Open Croquet master (KAT Demo harness is used in this example, from default Croquet SDK).
KCroquetParticipant new openInWorld.
When it asks about interactivity server, leave it blank, as (www.croquetcollaborative.org) could not work, so it will start locally.
3. Point your any web browser (Firefox, Safari preferable) to:
4. To test Comet functions (RGB Slider), just open another browser window and point it also to:

Typical campy acting of the cast. Somewhat nostalgic...I felt like I was "reliving "futures" past...".
I give it a 3 for entertainment value. A nice addition for any ST collector.

This is definitely not one of the greatest episodes. But you have to remember this was one of THE FIRST ones made! So... yes the uniforms look odd and uncomfortable, Spock's eyebrows look freakishly weird, and the acting is a little shaky. BUT it is one of the famous stories. You wouldn't believe the kind of books and fanfiction off of this one episode! Proof that Star Trek had more impact than the writers realized.
Worth watching once. If anything at least it has the famous 3D Chess Set! And a classic scene where Kirk actually beats Spock at the game.
Again, this is an early episode. So it isn't QUITE exciting yet. BUT the story-line was unique for the time. Sadly the plot is a little slow compared with the usual action SciFi shows we are used to now. But the ending makes the 50+ minutes of slow dialogue and subdued action worth it.

"I sent the following to Paramount at firstname.lastname@example.com:I recently purchased the DVD Star Trek: The Original Series, Vol. 1. The "digitally enhanced and remastered" episodes 2 & 3 looked great. This is the best that the original series has ever looked. It didn't look this good when originally broadcast. I remember.As much as I like the high quality of the video and sound provided by the DVD, there are a few things about it I don't like. The main problem is that the DVD contains only two episodes. Two episodes per video tape made sense because that was the most that could be recorded and still provide the best picture of which tape is capable. That is not the case with the DVD format. A DVD could store six episodes without loss of quality. I don't expect that though, since I understand Paramount wants to maximize its profits from Star Trek. However, four episodes could be included on each DVD and if the price were increased to maintain the cost per episode of two per DVD, the total price for a four episode DVD would be within the range of DVD movies and so be practical to market. Why is it important to me to have more episodes per DVD, enough so that I am willing to pay more for that DVD? Partly it is that I hate to see the waste involved in using only a fraction of the storage space on each disk. That waste directly effects me by taking up more shelf space to store the DVDs. Merely doubling the number of episodes per DVD would halve the storage space required for the entire collection. Right now, I doubt I will buy the entire series because of the problem of storing them (I never purchased the video tapes for the same reason). Instead, I will probably buy just the DVDs that contain my favorite episodes. Understand that I am a serious collector of DVDs. I have over 50 movies on DVD already, and expect to continue to buy more (speaking of which, when are the Indiana Jones movies going to be released on DVD?). But the size of my DVD collection already means that storage space is at a premium. Also, the ineffieciency of using only a fraction of the DVDs capability offends my conservative nature. It's bad ecology as well.To sum up, I love the quality of Star Trek on DVD but I hate the packaging (or is it marketing?).One more thing. I'd like to see more bonus materials on the Star Trek DVDs. Its nice to have the preview trailers, but there is so much more that could be included. How about interviews with the cast, or commentaries such as those shown on the Sci-Fi Channel when it rebroadcast the original series? Anything about the special effects or design of the show would be great. I have been very impressed with the DVDs from New Line Cinema or Columbia Tristar and recommend them to my friends who are just entering the world of DVD. I'd like to be able to recommend Paramount also.Will Paramount pay any attention to my letter? Probably not, if it's the only one they receive. If you feel that two episodes per DVD is a waste, why not let them know?"

"I first began watching Star Trek in reruns. The print quality was awful in those days: scratchy, grainy film; poor audio; obvious splices, and the episodes were cut to allow for extra commercials.I have on occasion purchased the VHS transfers, but the quality was mediocre at best.Paramount is to be commended for deciding to transfer the entire original series to DVD. Their engineers have done an excellent job of remastering the visual images. (The image is a bit TOO good. Look carefully, and you can make out the seam line in William Shatner's toupee.) But, what is really astonishing to me is what they have done with the sound. By separating the various elements (dialogue, scoring and sound effects), they have been able to present a much more vivid audio image. Star Trek never looked or sounded better. True, the visual effects and sets date. But have you seen an early episode of Next Generation lately? They look pretty cheesy by today's standards, and what about those awful lycra uniforms?I am aware that there have been complaints regarding each DVD containing two episodes, but if there had been more the cost would certainly have been higher.It has been said that the best special effect of all is human emotion. Watching the interplay between Kirk, Spock, McCoy, and the other characters, one can easily see what has been missing in the sequel Star Trek series--indeed, in science fiction generally."
A Must-Have for Trekkers
Paul J. Moade | Jacksonville, FL United States | 05/20/2000

"It's Star Trek - TOS all over again. What more needs to be (or can be) said?This release of the series on DVD is crisp, clear and well worth the price paid. Colors are bright and lack the 'washed out' look that was evident on tape. I could never convince myself to buy the series on VHS (besides which, I had taped them from TV), but will be buying the entire series on DVD.Unfortunately, as others have said before me, there is little on the DVD besides the two episodes each themselves. Just the trailer from televison. More could have been done here -- thus I took away a 'star' for this. However, the quality of the transfer is excellent and will present you with many hours of re-enjoying the adventures once again (assuming that you enjoyed them in the first place).For those of you who have not seen ST:TOS, I favor it over later Star Trek releases because of the unique personal interaction between the primary members of the crew (Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Scotty). This is the strengh of the series, and was not duplicated in later Star Trek releases.So .... If you enjoy a somewhat hokey space adventure (remember, the charm of the series is the crew interaction mentioned above) and/or would like to see the show that started it all, this is a purchase you probably won't want to pass up.~unabashed recommendation~Beam me up, Scotty."

Connor Bowen hasn't seen his wife since she left him seven months ago claiming he was more married to his job than he was to her. Now his past has plunged Jana into mortal danger. This time the former Black Ops agent won't let anything come between him and the woman he'd lay down his life to protect.
Jana moved across the country to start over far from Connor. But after she's brutally abducted, she has to once again rely on the Corcoran Team leader for survival. Seeing Connor again reawakens old feelings, and she considers taking him back -- but will she even get the chance?
I have been waiting to read the story of Connor and Jana and find out why they have been apart. In the previous books it's been easy to see that her absence is tearing Connor apart. At the end of the last one he had made the decision to go after her. But before he could do so, she was kidnapped.
The love between Connor and Jana had never been in question. There was always plenty of that. The problem was that, because of his past, Connor constantly worried about Jana's safety. He did everything he could to keep her safe, but tended to go a bit overboard. When she found that he had put tracking devices in her clothing and investigated people she came in contact with, she started to feel smothered. Nothing that she said to him seemed to make any difference. Finally she just had to get away, and went to Utah to work with a friend's charity. She didn't mean to stay away long, she just had to find a way to show Connor that they needed some balance.
The kidnappers seemed to know that the best way to get to Connor was through Jana. Where they made their mistake was in failing to understand that she meant just as much to Connor's team. They were not going to let Connor go in alone. The action was nonstop from the minute they all showed up. I loved seeing the closeness of the team and how they all stepped up to help him. I especially liked the way, at the beginning, they let him know that they had all been aware of what he was going through and had wanted to help if he had just let them in. That may have been where Connor starts to understand what Jana had been complaining about.
I loved Jana's confidence that Connor would arrive in time to save her. She never doubted his love for her. Once they saw each other again, the good things about their marriage were remembered. During their fight to discover who is threatening their lives they are also given the opportunity to confront their issues. It was really fun to see Connor as he finally started to listen to Jana and hear what she had been trying to tell him. You could see how hard it was at times, but he really did try. I also liked the way that Jana took responsibility for her part of the problem too. There were some great scenes where Jana really surprised Connor with what she was able to do. I think that went a long way toward laying some of his fear to rest.
The suspense part of the story was excellent. Jana had stumbled on something that didn't look right, and it was right after that the trouble started. One of the bad guys had two agendas going on. His identity really wasn't much of a surprise and was revealed fairly early in the book. Jana had been pretty clueless about him, but Connor had his number from the beginning. I loved that the team was completely with him on that feeling, which motivated them even more. There was another player in the game that I didn't figure out until nearly the end. That one added a whole other layer to the danger Jana was in. I loved seeing how that one worked out.
I really enjoyed seeing more of Cam, and also getting to know Holt and Shane a little better. All three are great at their jobs, but you could also see their respect and love for Connor. For such big, strong guys it was fun to see them get a bit clutchy whenever things like love, family or relationships were mentioned. I have high hopes that the author has plans for the three of them!

(Another Pet Smart Tragedy - sent in this week...)

For the Love of Oliver Oggero
Hi my name is Summer, I am 11 years old and this is my story.
On Friday, January 2nd, 2009, my beloved Teacup Poodle Oliver Oggero died.
It all started when we took him into PetSmart at about 2:30 p.m to get him groomed, a lady took him and told me and my family to come back at 7:00. I didn't want to leave him that long but my mother Laura reassured me they were "PROFESSIONALS", we left Oliver and went out to eat.... About 3 hours later they called back and told my mom that Oliver wasn't acting right, so we rushed over.
When we got to the Grooming section of PetSmart I took Oliver and cried my eyes out, the lady who worked there said that everything would be okay, and to drive him right home. She said he was just tired, but I could tell something was wrong because normally he licks my face all over. When we got to the car I told my mom to take him to the vet immediatley because he was not breathing right and he wasn't moving. The first vets office was closed so we took him to the animal hospital on Sterling.
When we took him in, the Doctors said something was seriously wrong. They told us that his gums were pure white, he was missing a tooth, and his lungs were being filled with a bloody fluid, so he couldn't breath. There had been some kind of trama to the chest that had happened within the last few hours, so they took a long tube to help him breath and cough up the blood. I coudn't stand the fact that my little doggy was in pain so I just sat there crying over my cousin, Willie's shoulder.
After we were at the hospital for about an Hour and a Half I went home with my father, Victor.When I finally arrived at my dad's house he got a call from the vet saying that Oliver passed away. We were just getting out of the car when we got the call. So my dad had everyone go inside except me, he sat on the grass and held me. He didnt even have to tell me my dear dog was dead. I cried so much, and so did everyone else.
Apparantley the groomers at PetSmart hurt Oliver's 4 month old body internally, and he was either dropped on the side of the tub or had fallen off the grooming counters or had been squeezed too tight. Oliver died at 7:56 p.m. and I will never forget that.
Oliver died for a reason, and the reason was to help all of the other people pets, I learned very important things from him. I think Oliver knew it was his time to leave because before he went into the Emergency Room he gave me a kiss on my face like he did every day.
I am an 11 year old animal activist, My name is Summer, I hope you tell your people my story and I hope you tell me any of your animal stories so we can all make a difference.

Spark Naturals - One Stop Shop for Essential Oils
2 comments :
I hope you will read my entire comment because you will see that Spark Naturals is indeed an MLM company, at least as of today, Sat., Aug. 27, 2013. The very last paragraph strongly suggests signing up for the "monthly EO", which, therefore makes you accountable for paying a 'monthly fee" although that's not what they're calling it.ReplyDelete
I beg to differ with you on your comment that this is not an MLM company. Especially after what I just saw posted on FB by Camp Wander "Spark Naturals Affiliate Program! How to Sign Up!".
Spark Naturals is unlike any MLM (multi-level) company. No enrollment fees, monthly minimums, auto-ship requirements, inflated prices or pressure to perform. Much like the Amazon affiliate program I'm part of, it's just a clean and easy marketing concept that you can do YOUR way. It's a great way to pay for your oils or step thing up and really increase your income!
Is there a screening process?
Yes, there is. Your application will be reviewed quickly and in the order they arrive. There is one requirement that SN will look for, you will need to have placed an order with Spark Naturals previous to sending in your application. They simply want to know that you have some experience with their products. Once you're approved, you'll be given a Discount Code (10% off incentive) unique to you and, a web-link for your social media.
If you haven't placed an order yet, I have a suggestion. Sign up for the Oil of the Month Club, it's the BEST EO deal around!
Just $15.99 (shipping incl.) per month for a 15ml bottle of the featured EO of the month! August is Shield protective blend, a great EO to have on hand for cold and flu season. There's still a few days left in August to get yours!
Nope, not an MLM Company, nothing like it. You don't have to pay a dime to start and you certainly don't have to sign up for the Oil of the Month. It is just a great deal. There are no monthly fees. Nothing. This is like Amazon Affiliate if you are familiar with that. You don't have to do anything to get paid other than share. Thanks for your comment though!ReplyDelete

How to develop a career in Multimedia and animation??
Apparently, one of the most frequently asked question in this decade.
In last couple of decades, India witnessed an unprecedented growth in fields of animation, vfx or multimedia as a whole. With staggering percentage of youth joining workforce and growing popularity of animation and vfx in almost all industries across the globe is creating a humongous demand for animation, vfx or multimedia as alluring career options. As per Mr. Subrata Roy, Director of a leading animation production house; "every year the percentage of students applying for animation courses in Kolkata is vastly increasing. Both awareness and acceptability of animation as a credible career options is growing with release of Hollywood and Bollywood blockbusters every year. Besides that, a significant share of present student force feels most comfortable with modern technology and varied OS platforms." This however is helping making animation and multimedia emerge itself as one of the most appealing career options for youngsters.
According to industry experts, animation straddles three robust and rapidly developing sectors like:
- Electronic Entertainment (Computer Gaming)
- Broadcast/Film Industry
- Professional Visualization and Simulation
According to Mr. Manoj Bose, Production Head of Hi-Tech Film & Broadcast Academy; "there is a colossal demand for professional animators in all aforementioned categories. During recruitment we mostly prefer candidates with either creative or technical expertise". According to Mr. Bose some people specialize in the art of animation while other chose to become technical directors. He also added, "This is why we exclusively impart production relevant training to students enrolled at our institutional segments."
Below is a brief glance at some of the job descriptions you might encounter in a typical production house/ animation studio:
- 2D Animators: use drawing, composition and perspective to create illustrations, line of action, structure and basic anatomy. 2D animators may work in areas as varied as animation, character design, background/ prop designing, clean up, doping, modeling, slugging and story boarding (Preproduction).

An expertise in character FX helps to augment the realistic value of the actual character. They develop tools to enhance the pipeline. A knowledge of Maya, rigging tools and surface modeling techniques is essential for this.

Imagine our planet without sun for a day and you can realize the importance of 3D lighting in animation. When animators animate the characters/ object, lighting artists lend the spice to the final output. For a career as animator, especially as lighting artists; one needs to have basic concept of lights and shadows, midtones, composition and psychological influence of light in human psychology.

How to win over debates?
Debate is all about intellectual exhibition of your knowledge and beliefs. In ancient times debate used to be treated as an effective faculty at King's court. Debate is a sheer manifestation of sanity and rationality. Nothing seems more appealing than a man/ woman driven by logic and sanity of mind. Since long people with debatable attribute are much in demand in every spheres of life. Be it Socrates, Chanakya, Birbal or even Elizabethan Portia (as described by The Bard himself).
Technically,debate involves more of politics than logic. Dialectic has always been the key for any solemn debate sessions.
This article is intended to suggest some key factors essential to win over any debate sessions.
- Eye for knowledge: the most essential attribute needed to win over a debate is your inquisitiveness. In a world full of followers, it's our inquisitiveness that gives us an added advantage over others. Our inquisitiveness helps us to explore spaces of life and our individual minds. Debatable characteristic emerges from the ambit of our individual knowledge and wisdom. Remember, all human brains are hardwired to act or judge as per precincts of their knowledge. So always keep replenishing your mind with more and effective knowledge.
- Listen: Ears to see, eyes to hear- yes, our ears can do wonders if we could apprehend the virtue of listening. A good speaker is the one who listens. How can you win a debate without being a good listener?
- Note: Have you ever heard the term "dream incubators"? They are people who love to incubate their dreams for varied reasons. Writing or taking note is the only way how we can incubate our dreams. Most successful entrepreneurs, leaders, bureaucrats have confessed about their habit of taking notes. It's as good a habit as washing hands before eating. Notes help us to recapitulate, analyze, apprehend, secure and use information for imperative use.
- Frame: is the dish on which we serve the food, named logic. This is the way how we want to position or place our logic. One of the most crucial aspect of debate is to direct your opposition towards your desired conclusion. Framing helps in channelizing the interaction or monitoring the course of debate. Better the framing better is your chances to nail your opponent.
- Synthesize: Synthesis is a key attribute which will propel you ahead of your league. During any debate session, we synthesize our knowledge and experience to exploit the thought process of our opponents. It is said that human brain is the only organ in our body which manifests the layers of human evolution. The oldest part of our brain is called reptilian brain which caters our instincts, followed by limbic brain guides our feelings and emotions. While the outer most layers is called neo cortex, it is responsible for rational thinking and actions. While debating we synthesize our knowledge and experience in a way that will affect these aforementioned brain layers of our opponents.
- Deliver: This is the most crucial factor of any debate sessions. As no matter how logical you are or how good research had been- unless you deliverance is appealing, you can never win a debate sessions. Every interaction or debate sessions is a one is to one bargaining game, where the dominant player is most likely to win the game. Hence, domination of your opponent can augur you further towards your triumphant glory. You may do this by proper voice, intonation, body language, pronunciation and eye movement. People listen to what you say, but to make a people think give a pause amidst your sentences. These pauses make your listeners analyze and apprehend your sentences. Even there are techniques like palm down gesture and sudden glance at the top hairline of your opponent often plays a significant role in rob your opponent off his/ her confidence.
- Show Gratitude: 'Thank you' when combined with a smile is said to have a tremendous psychological impact on the person saying it or the person for whom the gratitude is meant to be. Gratitude is said to be the primeval virtue possessed by all leaders. So in order to prove your worth.

What make good employees leave your company?
Is your business facing high attrition? Does performance of your best employee drooping suddenly? Are your employees seeking leave with illegit excuses? Are you getting compelled to atrite any of your old employees on disciplinarian grounds? Then there must be some serious problem lurking high on your business and it's prospect.
Even though the problems are seemingly diverse but if remain ignored, these problems certainly culminates in irrevocable loss of business and revenue prospect. Hence, no matter what excuses do they give but high attrition, drooping performance of employees are issues awaiting your priority and interference.

I believe that when a good employee leaves a company, he/ she loses a job but the company loses a fortune. My sheer experience in HR and critical analysis of behavioral science vastly substantiate the popular belief- employees don't leave the organization, they leave their manager/s. Managerial incompetence is the bedrock of high attrition and dearth of employee engagement.
Job role of managers in start up generation is more than that of mere accountants, supervisors or ring masters wielding whip at his employees. They should play the role of a visionary and act as doting guardians to their employees. They should learn to discern good from evil. Hence most effective managers are the ones with deeper understanding of subjects and human psyche. Managers, being the leader should be exemplary performers, motivators and honest influencers.
So what are the managerial flaws which compel good employees leave his/her job or decline employee engagement in any organization? All that I could figure out are as follows:
1) When quality of employees surpass qualities of the manager.
A good employee is not born overnight. Qualities that make an employee good are his/her long nurtured honesty, experience, family values, education, upbringing, insights, hard work, commitment and his past struggles. A credible manager sans ego should never leave a chance to admire those atttributes in others and take lessons from that person, eeven if he/ she is a junior employee. This how effecient managers learn to upgrade his business acumen and governing skills. We should remember that every dignified employee hates to get governed by incompetent managers.
2) Filthy politics in the guise of healthy competition.
The difference between the two are droll. Competitive attitude within an organization is the only attribute desired by both employees and employers. In mindless pursuit of impressing his seniors, managers tend to induce superficially concocted rivalry within organization. The manager gets elated when any of his employees bags incentives, he starts believing his connived rivalry to be the key factor. Whereas its not the rivalry but the alluring incentive scheme which might have driven the employee to excel. Thus making the existence of managers as useless and virulent to the organization.

3) Exemplifying wrong employees
This is one of the most prominent factors comprising almost 60% of all accounted attritions. Exemplification can be done in several ways like
- a) By misrepresentation: Exemplifying wrong employees by manipulation of performance reports. Misrepresentations can be of two ways. Either concocted reports are being escalated to higher authorities or suppressing requisite information from the concerned employee with the objective of deliberate misguidance.
- b) By attitude: Attitude of the manager towards all employees should be equal. Mentoring a team does not mean that the manager should be disgraceful to employees who doesn't feed his/ her ego. Often its the manager who instigate and drives the behavior of other employees towards the subversive employee. Even sexual advancements by managers at workplaces are crucial factors leading to enormous attrition.
- c) Payment deferrals at random: This problem is mostly common in unorganized industries or mid level private companies. Egoist managers tend to exercise their authority to feed their own ego. Instead of regarding their designation as responsibility they start considering it as an opportunity to execute their obnoxious intentions. Deferred salary is an integral part of any organization which may cause mainly due to paucity in operational revenue. But handling such situation demands honest and competent leadership. Forwarding salary to selective employees at random; irrespective of designation, performance or intent will stoop organizational performance irrevocably.
- d) Ignoring their contributions: A good employee tends to justify himself to the company on basis of his salary but the best employee not only justifies his salary but also justifies the trust adhered to it. Passionate employees always try to look out for ways to improve their productivity and contributions to the company. The additional service which an employee renders to the company should always be recognized and appreciated. They try new avenues to increase prospects of his company as well as his own self. Managers failing to recognize and admire these resources drive the organization to HR bankruptcy.
4) Unproductive, irksome rules and regulations:
During Soviet regime, Maxim Gorky once during a conversation with his friend, V.I.Lenin did express his desire to become an official member of Bolshevik Party. Lenin negated his proposition and explained how stringent rules and disciplines of a communist party might rob Gorky off his free flowing creativity and spontaneity. Till his last days, Gorky never became a member of Bolsheviks.Yes, too much of rules and disciplines can worsen creativity and organizational performance. This is why Google has been voted 150th times for being the best company to work with. Irrelevant rules and regulations worsen organizational productivity more than anything else. Rules are imperative but leaders should know that if needed, how to tamper it for organizational benefits.
5) Myopic management
"Remember, that in 70s and 80s, there were people who negated all possibilities of computer in the process of advocating typewriters."
Myopic management at present is the greatest threat for global business fraternity. For some myopia is a result of unprecedented accidents while for some its a significant excuse to maintain status quo. Reforms in educational system since 90s has noted a remarkable upsurge in employee workforce. However ascent of leaders with entrepreneurial potential has taken a deep plunge. Most business houses prefer to nurture and exemplify status quoists instead of risk taking leaders. Remember, that in 70s and 80s, there were people who negated all possibilities of computer while advocating for typewriters. In today's dynamic market scenario, being non- chalant is utterly suicidal. Overtly obsequious employee tends to shirk responsibilities and decisions which may affect status quo of the organization. Businesses fail mostly in lieu of myopic perspectives of their managers. Though these status quoists can also be indispensable part of an organization- only if their job role demands them to be replicators instead of initiators (read managers/ C suite).
It's clear that managing for the short term comes at the expense of firms' long-term value. But what can be done to limit this type of behavior? One reason that managers engage in myopic management is that they are evaluated on current financial performance. Often, managers are rewarded for the gains but not penalized for the losses, or they are able to move on before negative consequences transpire. Companies can reduce incentives for myopic behavior by increasing vesting periods and delaying payoffs to departing executives. Firms should also look beyond their current earnings and share prices when setting performance evaluation standards. Consideration should be given to a variety of factors, both financial and non-financial. The non-financial ones need to reflect strategies with long-term value implications. For example, many of the key aspects of a brand's strength, such as differentiation from the competition or the degree to which customers perceive the brand as relevant to their needs, can be measured through surveys and then linked to compensation. Long-term performance measures will motivate executives to manage with an eye to the future.
Every organization should have effective HR policies to distinguish leaders from bosses. Myopic management are most likely to nurture and bequeath the same stigma to their next line of professionals.

Planning for Engineering after HS?
From April, the premium processing of H1B visas, the permits that enable skilled foreigners to be employed in the United States, will be suspended for six months. This move is most likely to affect thousands of Indian nationals, predominantly in the $150 billion Indian information technology industry.
Shares of prominent tech firms like Wipro and Infosys faced the expected plunge. This appalling bill was introduced in the US House of Representatives with the objective to increase the minimum annual salary to qualify for an H1B viSA FROM $60,000 (Rs. 40 Lakhs) to at least $130,000 (Rs. 87 Lakh). Indian tech firms have long been accused of misutilizing H1B visas to hire Indian workers for less than it would cost to hire an American.
85,000 H1B visas are made available each year which includes 20,000 reserved for workers with advanced degrees. Since the number of applicants for H1B is way more than visas available, both employees and companies take their chances in a lottery. Other than unprecedented downturns like that of in the year 2008, there is no exception to this gambling. The suspension of the premium process, which permits firms to pay a $1225 (Rs.82,000) fee to expedite applications, is ostensibly to clear a backlog. Last year, Indian workers accounted for 70% of the 85, 000 available H1B visas, with Indian firms receiving 17000 visas, or 20% of the total.
Not only working professionals but also students planning to pursue engineering in and after 2017 are going to be the worst sufferers. According to data from the Washington-based Pew Research Center shows that India is the largest contributor of migrants in the world. Most favorite destination for most migrants is the US or the UAE. India is also the largest immigrant population of the world.
15.6 million people born in India who make their homes in other countries. Compared with 12.3 million Mexicans and 9.5 million Chinese.
3.5 million Indian-born people living in the UAE, about 33% of the population. 940,444 migrants to the UAE come from Egypt, the second highest contributor.
$69 billion money sent by NRIs back to India, the highest of any country.
3% average proportion that migrates. Despite the largest numbers, India falls below this average less than 2% leave the country.

Indian tech students and professionals are about to suffer the most because of this bill. Consequentially, students appearing for higher secondary 2017 are at the hamletsque juncture of "to be or not to be an engineer".
My brother- in- law works in Silicon valley. The bill however have jeopardized his professional career. I'm likely to rethink my career goals after my Higher Secondary exams this year. – Abhik Choudhury, 17, Kolkata*.
Engineering jobs mostly depend on outsourcing. Subtle changes in International relations can affect engineers adversely. I have witnessed the downturn of 2008. I don't want my son to face the same wrath. – Mr. Sukamal Debnath, 48, Kolkata*.
My daughter is appearing for higher secondary this year. We do not want entrust her with burden of our expectations. We want her to take her own decision. Gone are the days when parents used to decide career choices on behalf of their children. – Kamalika Chatterjee, 39, Kolkata*.
Yes, I have heard about this deplorable bill. Though it got tough for students aspiring to be tech grads but I hope they should rethink and choose a career which better suits the need of the hour. – Asmita Sinharoy, 26, Kolkata*.
*As interviewed by #asksubho.
Though Indian IT companies have created 155,000 jobs directly and 411,000 jobs in ancillay services; with a consistent annual growth rate of 10%.
According to Nasscom report, Indian IT companies provide services to 75% of the Fortune 500 companies, ensuring global competitiveness to American companies.
US government did admit to a shortage of talent in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics) areas.In US the shortfall in talent for STEM jobs is estimated at 2.4 million. While unemployment among STEM graduates is under 2%.
With declining number of Indian manufacturing industries and growing tension over immigration issues, thousands of students and professionals are switching their career trajectories to other promising industries like media, pharmaceuticals & marketing.
Let the suspension get over soon. Infosys chairman, Mr. Narayan Murthy said, US must now prepare for the life without imported, low cost know-how that gave them their competitive advantage in the first place.

"Call him "Buddha", he who can refrain himself from this eternal cycle of necessity."
We all are obliged to this perpetual cycle of necessity. Be it the CEO/ CFO/ CIOs of multinationals or daily wage earners working at construction sites, we all succumb to this eternal cycle. This is what that drives most of the daily consumptions across the globe.
With the exception of those who make their living as purchasing agents or secret shoppers, no one is a professional customer. Rather they are professional engineers, accountants, HR managers, customer service representatives, CEOs or whatever. They are as normal as you and me. They laugh, they cry, they frown, they fart- hence we all are equally vulnerable while buying.
Who buys an Inuit costume in scorching Indian summer?
No, one buys anything but solution to their problems. I need to look good and confident, hence I bought a formal shirt made of imported cotton fabric and a pair of stone embellished cuff links. I'm planning to go for a trek- I need a pair of shoes to withstand the climate and rough terrains, so I should buy one. Likewise, hunger makes us buy food; thirst makes us buy drinks. We do not buy anything that doesn't align with our own necessities.
So what if we tamper the ambit of these necessity cycle? No brownie for guessing. Results will be outrageous.
So what do we actually buy/ consume?
We consume food, we consume clothing, we consume shelter, we consume internet, we consume entertainment, we consume information, we consume education, even we consume the habit of consumption itself (read window shopping). In countries like India we consume politics and political leaders as well. Personally I believe elections are more like weekly haats (Mandis), where in every five years, people from myriad backgrounds and political communities display their products (candidates) through every possible media to seek our support. Inarguably, for us voters- this is also a form of consumption, guided by our inherent buying behaviour. We trust the candidature as much as we trust the actors (with stethoscope) in a toothpaste commercial.
Who buy, who sells?
"Although we each have different titles and responsibilities in this company, we are really all in sales, we need to think like salesman" – extract from Think like your customers by Bill Stinnet.
Irrespective of our individual designation or industry we work for, we all are both consumers as well as selling agents at the same time. We sell ourselves to buy products and services sold by others. I sold myself at job interviews so that after getting the job I can buy products or services sold by someone else.
Now take a deep breathe and try to recall the last time you came out of a supermarket/ hyperretail without exceeding your predetermined shopping budget.
Yes, the additional expense that you incurred at the supermarket is due to impulsive buying. Lions share of your daily consumption is guided by your subconscious mind. As an advertising professional, I always preferred to appease my customers' subconscious mind instead of his rational thought process. I bet, knowingly or unknowingly every successful marketing professional does the same. Rational mind restraints us from superficial enlargement of this necessity cycle. It seeks logic over our urge to consume, while subconscious mind negates all logic before buying anything which is beyond our necessity cycle.
So how does advertisements or marketing professionals instigate our subconscious? What are the other influencers that compel us to buy? To know more about consumer behaviour and buying patterns, follow the blog series named Buy-O-Logical.

CV is good, story is better.
"Storytelling is as old as the campfire, and as young as a tweet"- Richard Branson
Last night I went to watch movie at a nearby theatre. To my amazement, the man sitting next to me was watching the trailer of the same movie in his mobile phone (thanks to Jio)! In this process he missed the climax of the movie he paid for.
In most cases HR professionals do the same thing while hiring new recruits. I have seen employers recruiting people based on their assumptions derived from applicant's CV. Given the authority to recruit people, I went in contrary to this popular ritual. And now I can boast of a talented pool of young professionals who can make every impossible possible. In last 3 months they have been setting remarkable examples in terms of proficiency and deliverance. Adversities are no longer excuses rather they consider them as integral attributes in their daily schedule.
Certainly, creating such a pool of resource is no big deal unless you are hailing from a non-MBA background, suddenly entrusted with the daunting task of HR.
Ignorance is bliss. With no formal knowlwdge of HR, I'd to rely on my gut feelings. As an advertising professional, I always relied on stories rather than facts and figures. We conducted almost 100 interviews to select a pool of 6 professionals who can steer the course of business and profitability for my clients.
CVs to me are always over ornated depiction of the applicants. I have never seen a CV elucidating vices of the applicant. Every CV warrants the applicant as Dalai Lama seeking Nirvana through a mortal sales job.
https://videopress.com/embed/OFN3hVbR?hd=0&autoPlay=0&permalink=0&loop=0Hence we started searching for people with stories, persuasive stories of achievements and humane failures.This is because stories have an emotional power to persuade that gives them an edge over pure logic.
Leadership stories are designed to change our conventional thought process. Stories are carefully chosen to achieve objectives. This can be done only when our audience (be it an employer or customer) can connect and resonate with our story.
To achieve a purpose, we have to think about what people will take from the story. A purposeful story should have substance, sincerity and a great truth at its core. It should also have a strong call to action. We need to know what the listener/s want to believe and understand at the end of the story. The key principle, as always, must be to change behaviours and achieve results.
In those hundred interviews, we never asked applicants about their achievements and aspirations. Rather some of the applicants broke into tears when asked a simple question: "what has been your worst failure, mention of which makes you feel disconcerted?" A single question breaks through their ultra attentive persona while exposing their long suppressed vulnerability. We are, how we deal with our vulnerabilities.
To err is human, especially when you are into sales and marketing. This is the reason why we never desired for a perfect professional, impeccably dressed, sans slightest traits to err. They are superficial with attitude like that of a machinery. Marketing is nothing but communication, and we only love to communicate with human beings.
In last 100 interviews I met two kinds of applicants. One, stuffed with corporate jargons, freshly rolled out of business schools (or even experienced) and others though hailing from diverse backgrounds but stuffed with stories of myriad hues.
While the former failed to convince me for buying a brand new Parker pen; the latter bagged a nod with a joining letter.
I suggest all aspiring job applicants to pause and start searching for stories in their own lives. You are not a CV but your unique insights derived from stories within.

Whether it's a festival, carnival or day out in the sun, there are plenty of pleasures to be had this week. Add the dizzying visual feast that is Nataraja to the mix
It's not often that an artwork makes me feel like dancing, but there's something fidgety about Nataraja. Its intense riot of colour, chopped-up and diagonally cut across the picture plane, pierces my corneas, shakes my belly, and dissipates in a tingly stupor to the tips of my digits. 'Tap, click, tap' commands each hue in my ears, as my eyes flit between various saturations of colour. At over two metres wide, you can't help but be ensnared by Nataraja's chromatic charm when coming across it in the new circuit of galleries at Tate Britain, in a room of works from the 1990s.
British abstract artist Bridget Riley first came to prominence in the early 1960s when she began to create distinctive black and white abstract paintings using lines and shapes to form optical effects. As a child living in Cornwall, she developed sensitivity to natural phenomena and the effects of light and colour made a particularly deep impression. Throughout her international career Riley has explored the complex visual sensations that colour and shape can create, and despite the apparent simplicity of her designs, her work begins from nature: 'the eye can travel over the surface in a way parallel to the way it moves over nature. It should feel caressed and soothed, experience frictions and ruptures, glide and drift…'
These so-called 'Op-art' pieces produce a disorienting physical effect on the eye, a bit like the 'optical flutter' I feel when looking at Piet Mondrian's Broadway Boogie Woogie, painted in the 40s when captivated by American jazz. In the 1980s following a visit to Egypt, Riley's work changed dramatically when she took up what she called an 'Egyptian Palette'. In Hindu mythology Nataraja means Lord of the Dance and refers to the Hindu god Siva (Shiva) in his form as the cosmic dancer - a dance that represents his importance as the source for all movement in the universe. So whether you're at a wedding, festival, garden party or picnic this week, sure - take it easy, glide and drift. But don't discount a little rupture here and there, and definitely make time for a boogie woogie.

I now live in Australia but I'm French. I've lived several years in Paris where many of my friends and family members still live. Two of the attacks occurred in the same street where by my best friend lives. His partner's sister was enjoying drinks with her friends in one of the restaurants were so many people got killed on this tragic Friday the 13th. Luckily she survived.I was touched by the outpour of solidarity I have received, my warmest thanks to you all. I read lots of articles and watched heaps of media about the Paris attacks. Yet, I started quite rapidly to feel uncomfortable at the world's focus on this latest wave of terrorist attacks.

text: So, a few times in the past week, I've been blacking out. I don't know if that's the correct term. Basically, I can't see anything and everything is black and I get this huge headache and feel really dizzy, but once I sit down, I'm pretty much okay. It might be because I'm standing up too fast, but I'm not sure. I've experienced this before, probably 10 times in the last 6 months, I would say. And I don't know if it's connected, but I've been getting a lot of headaches lately. . .But I've always gotten headaches. They just seem worse lately. I don't know. I was just wondering if the whole not-seeing-anything was anywhere near normal.Reply Follow This Thread Stop Following This Thread Flag this Discussion

Should I hire a bankruptcy attorney?
by, 08-08-2011 at 06:29 PM (1522 Views)
It is possible to file for bankruptcy without an attorney but it is not advisable. Bankruptcy law is complicated and an improper application of the law can adversely affect your case. A case may be dismissed or even worse, creditors may get more than they are entitled to. While trying to save money from not hiring an attorney, the debtor can lose more money by not having the proper protection from creditors. If a debtor were to choose to proceed without an attorney, they should at least consider whether they can handle two of the most vital roles of the bankruptcy attorney:
Filing for bankruptcy: this may be the most complicated part of the bankruptcy proceedings. The debtor should at least seek some consultation or advice for this part of the proceeding to understand what debts will need to be paid back, what assets you will lose and which assets are protected. This can be a complicated and tedious task that can lead to a case being thrown out or assets unnecessarily being lost if not handled properly.
Handle creditors: The bankruptcy attorney will know what the creditors have a right to do and what they do not have a right to do and they can protect the debtor from creditors. The creditors may negotiate a plan for more money than they are entitled to, or file motions or suits that should be dismissed, or continue to make harassing calls without the proper protections of an attorney.

Asus MeMo Pad 10 ME102A Troubleshooting
This tablet was released by Asus, inc in 2009. This guide is for the model ME102A.
- Tablet does not turn on
- The Camera does not work
- Touchscreen is broken
- Screen is too dark
- SD card does not read
- Speakers do not work properly
- The Back Panel is damaged
- The Motherboard is damaged or broken
The screen remains off no matter what I do.
The tablet may not turn on because the battery is dead. Charge the battery by using a micro USB cable and the charger that came with the device.
If the battery does not begin to charge after the device is plugged in, then it is possible that the battery is dead. If the battery is dead, then it can be replaced. Please refer to the Battery Replacement Guide.
Another possible reason for the battery failing to charge is a damaged Micro USB port. If the Micro USB port is damaged this could cause the device to charge briefly, then stop charging, or only charge when the plug is inserted at just the right angle.
The camera fails to take pictures, or takes pictures with obvious flaws.
If the pictures taken show large cracks, optical distortions such as blurring, or spider-web patterns the lens may be damaged. First, attempt to clean the camera with an appropriate lens-cleaning cloth. If this does not fix the issue it is possible the camera needs to be replaced. Please refer to the Camera Replacement Guide.
If the camera lens is not damaged or the camera fails to take pictures please restart the device. If this fails to correct the problem, attempt a complete factory restore to defaults. This will remove all data. If this fails, or you want a chance to preserve your data, then it is possible the camera needs to be replaced. Please refer to the Camera Replacement Guide.
The screen is cracked, damaged, or unresponsive
If the touchscreen is still responsive then it is possible only the glass needs to be replaced.
If the touchscreen is unresponsive then it is possible there is a deeper hardware malfunction.
The screen is dim or difficult to see
This could possibly be due to a multitude of issues including a software bug, a broken display, a failing battery, or a broken Micro USB port. Possible solutions to software bugs include restarting the device, and restoring the device. Restoring the device will cause a complete wipe of all data. If these fail, please refer to the Battery Replacement Guide
When the SD card is inserted the tablet cannot access the data
Possible solutions include restarting the device, and restoring the device. Restoring the device to factory defaults will wipe all data.
If the restoration fails to fix the issue then the SD card slot may be damaged or broken.
Sound quality is poor, filled with static, or absent
If the device fails to play sounds, or if the sounds are filled with static or otherwise distorted then it is possible this could be fixed by replacing the speakers. Please refer to the Speaker Replacement Guide.
The Back Panel of the device is damaged and needs to be replaced
If the Back Panel has been physically damaged to where the internals of the device are at risk then replacement could possibly offer a solution. Please refer to the Back Panel Replacement Guide.
The motherboard appears to have been damaged or broken
If there is physical damage to the motherboard, or if you believe the motherboard needs to be replaced then please refer to the Motherboard Replacement Guide.

Britney Spears and Demi Lovato have become partners in crime since officially joining The X Factor in May.
At the Kansas City, Missouri auditions June 8, X Factor UK judge Louis Walsh, 59, filled in for an ill Simon Cowell, 52, and taught the two pop stars a funny game he likes to play on the European version of the reality hit, Us Weekly has learned.
According to a source, the judges secretly chose a word before each contestant performed and then tried to use it during their critiques. The more difficult the word, the better. "Every time one of them said the word, they all started giggling like naughty school children."
Spears started the game by choosing the word "tiger." Judge L.A. Reid, 56, told one contestant "he looks like a tiger in his tank," which a giggling Lovato followed up by saying, "I can see a little tiger action."
Spears was next to chime in, saying "he was like a big tiger." She and Lovato had trouble keeping a straight face and were laughing uncontrollably, per the source.
The mischief continued when Lovato chose the word "umbrella." Walsh told the contestant, "You remind me of Rihanna — that 'Umbrella' girl." Lovato then told her, "You're the umbrella to my rain," only to be one-upped by Spears, who said, "You're my umbrella to everything."
The judges also chose the words "slinky," "punk rock," "caution" and "mountain."
"Demi, Britney and L.A. enjoyed the game, but no one is sure if Simon will be too happy with Louis for leading everyone astray," a set source tells Us. "He has been doing the X Factor in the UK for nine years and everyone loves him, but he's always making trouble!"
If anything, it gave "Criminal" singer Spears, 30, and "Give Your Heart a Break" chart topper Lovato, 19, a chance to put rumors of backstage feuds to rest.
"Britney and Demi are getting along great," an insider tells Us. "Whenever they aren't filming, Demi and Britney are chatting and hanging out. . . They are seriously bonding big time. It's nice to see."

I promised a post on the thickness of thread, and I promise it's in the works.
But in the meantime, I ran across this explanation of thread quality with microscope pictures for your viewing pleasure.
I hope this helps when you're out buying thread? For what it's worth, I never buy Coats and Clark, only Gutermann but recently was cursing a bad spool of Gutermann that kept breaking.
Metrosene is the best I've sewn with, but I can't find it in many local stores?
Hope you guys are working on something fun. I just watched the movie Precious so now I'm sad and traumatized and need to recover! ~

The Baltimore Ravens hired Marty Mornhinweg as their new quarterbacks coach.
The Baltimore Ravens have hired Marty Mornhinweg as their new quarterbacks coach, the team announced Wednesday.
Mornhinweg replaces Rick Dennison, who left with Gary Kubiak to go to the Denver Broncos.
Mornihiweg, 52, spent the last two seasons with the New York Jets. Last season, the Jets were 22nd in total offense, and scored 17.7 points per game. New York had the NFL's worst passing attack, and their quarterbacks threw only 16 touchdowns.
"Marty is going to be a great addition for us," Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said.
Mornhinweg was the Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator from 2006 to 2012. He has also been the the San Francisco 49ers offensive coordinator and Green Bay Packers quarterbacks coach.
Mornhinweg was also the head coach of the Detroit Lions from 2001 to 2002, going 5-27 in his two seasons there.
