Product Name: Total Takeover
Website: www.totaltakeover.com
Price: Free trial to $ 89.95 per month
Owners: Wallace Nuanez, Dave Lear and Val Smyth
Overall Ranking: 30/100
Who it's for: expert marketer
Total Takeover which is an MLM company is the brainchild of three people, Wallace Nuanez, Dave Lear, and Val Smyth. It had been making waves in the industry when it went public on January 26, 2015. In fact, I'm one of those who registered during its prelaunch. I didn't think over whether this is real or another pyramid scheme.
Within a matter of hours after my registration, my genealogy swelled to thousands as it attracted many members to join in its early stage.
Their registered members ( free and paid )now totalled to 251,549, but only more than 5 thousand members upgraded, that means paying $ 89.95 monthly for affiliate membership.
After more than four months since it was launched and after so many reviews, Total Takeover is still around with a new compensation plan.
Total Takeover Product Line
If you are a free member, you have a limited access to the product. The Total Takeover has no retailable products or services with affiliates only able to market affiliate membership with the company itself.
By paying a monthly membership of $ 89.95, the affiliate has access to a series of internet marketing products in the form of Digital Marketing Tools which are designed mostly for your recruitment activities. Here are some of the products that you can avail as a paid member:
Customizable Capture Pages – to capture leads and building your list for your internet marketing success.
Powerful 2 Step Marketing System – Not only will you be building and creating wealth with Total Takeover, you can also at the same time, have the ability to share and build your primary business opportunity.
Contact Manager – keep track of all your leads, create notes and follow up with all of them daily.
Tracking Statistics – to keep track of what video, or article, or even paid solo ad to know what is working best and to know where your traffic is coming from.
Training University – full video courses that will cover marketing and lead generation through powerful free methods as well as paid methods. Some of the topics covered are Blogging, You Tube Marketing, Facebook marketing, Classified Ad marketing, PPC Advertising and Solo Ad Training.
What Made Total Takeover So Popular in Its Early Stage?
With the kind of advertising these three owners used, Total Takeover easily went viral on Facebook attracting thousands of members before it was launched, but later on faded away. Here are some of the positive and negative feedbacks:
1.) you earn big bucks here if you are an expert marketer.
2.) you earn if you have a big following and bring them here being you at the top leaderboard
1.) failure to pay a monthly membership of $ 89.95 may result in termination of account.
2.) your current position on the leaderboard will be forfeited.
3.) all the commissions owed to you will be forfeited.
4.) earn less compared to what you pay for your monthly membership.
Can You Really Make Money With Total Takeover?
Since this is an MLM scheme, the most that make money here are the leaders who usually have a big following and those who are already expert marketers. They already know how MLM works but not for beginners who still lack marketing skills to succeed in this kind of business.
The Elite Networker Pay Plan
Pay Plan 1
1.) You will be in Profit with only 2 People coded to you.
2.) You get paid $ 22.50 every 30 days from all personally referred members coded to you and $ 12.50 every 30 days from all pass up members on your payline. You will also get paid $ 10 every 30 days on each of the 2 personally referred members that you pass up to your sponsor.
3.) Residual income.
4.) You must have 2 active pass-ups at all times.

2.) This pays out the first Wednesday of every month.
3.) Compounding residual income.
4.) You must have 2 active personal sign ups to qualify for Pay Plan 2.
Is there a 24/7 Support System?
The Support Desk does not handle questions about the compensation plan, product, or marketing, refer to your upline sponsor or The Elite Networker Facebook Group for support.
It is limited to handling Technical, Website, Reporting, and billing Issues only. Support tickets can take anywhere from 24-72 hours to be answered.
No live 24/7 help and support.
No support from the owners.
My Final Opinion
With years of MLM expertise from the founders, Total Takeover looks like a scam. It combines an irrelevant product offering with a recruitment-driven compensation plan.
It is positions in said compensation plan that are being purchased with the membership fee serving as a qualification to receive ongoing commissions paid out directly of the fees paid by recruited affiliates.
The training offered with affiliate membership serves only to offer cover for the payment of commissions on the recruitment of new affiliates.
As with all recruitment-based schemes, once recruitment dries up, those at the bottom stop paying their monthly membership fees. This means that those above them stop getting paid and in turn stop paying their monthly fees.
This in effect will slowly cause the company to trickle until it collapses.

Under legislation passed by the Senate on Friday, black farmers who claim discrimination at the hands of the Agriculture Department would receive almost $1.2 billion. American Indians who say they were swindled out of royalties by the Interior Department would split $3.4 billion. Both cases have languished for more than a decade, and plaintiffs say beneficiaries are dying off.
The legislation was approved in the Senate by voice vote Friday and sent to the House. The money had been held up for months in the chamber as Democrats and Republicans squabbled over how to pay for it.
Lawmakers from both parties have said they support resolving the claims of discrimination and mistreatment by federal agencies. But the money has been caught up in a fight over spending and deficits. Republicans repeatedly objected to the settlements when they were added on to larger pieces of legislation. But Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., satisfied conservative complaints by finding spending offsets to cover the cost.

The Little Matador
4 comments:
Adorable! When does it release?ReplyDelete
Hey Tara,ReplyDelete
The Little Matador is my first book, it came out in 2008!
Seems beautifully done, but although it may not glorify bullfighting, it seems like it treats this tradition with a lot of respect. I wouldn't give a chid a book that could bring the suggestion that bullfighting is ok. Otherwise, great illustrations, and it does seem like good storytelling.ReplyDeleteReplies
Thank you! In the book, I tried to be as neutral as possible on the issue of bullfighting. I certainly didn't want to glorify it, but I would never want to preach to a child about a viewpoint that has nothing to do with the story itself. Hopefully, a child can read my book, then learn about bullfighting on their own, and come to their own conclusion on whether it should still be practiced or not.Delete

Matt's Week in Dork! (7/6/14-7/12/14)
Not a lot of movies this week. But I got some in, and some reading. I also did a lot of prep work for some stories. I just haven't been writing the nitty-gritty of anything (outside of this blog) for some time. It's something I feel the desire to get my head back into, but I've been out of practice for so long. It's tough.
On Sunday, I read Storm Dogs and Pretty Deadly. One was good, the other kind of sucked. Because of another book I've been reading, and not enjoying, I think I've been finding other things to read. Probably the reason behind my recent spate of comic trades.
The Last Performance: There are a few interesting bits in this film, but the story is kinda meh. The main attraction is Conrad Veidt, and for fans, it's nice to see him working his mojo. The man can stare, with the best of 'em. Other than Veidt fans, though, this film holds little to recommend it.
The Ballad of Narayama: Gorgeously produced, this film has the artificiality of a stage play, but the magical wonder of film. The story looks at the simple life of country villagers who try to scrape out a living from the unforgiving mountains. And one lone old lady, ready to take a spiritual (and suicidal) pilgrimage to a nearby holy mountain. It's also nice to see a film that feels like it's set during that near-myth era of samurai, that has nothing to do with samurai at all. Not a sword drawn in the whole film. Quite good.
Pickup on South Street: Though the ending is a bit wonky, this movie about a two-bit pick-pocket getting more than he bargained for is some classic Noir fodder. A dizzy dame, some fist-happy cops, double dealing commies, and a heap of trouble. Plus, Widmark is on fire as a relentless prick. It's wonderful.
Persona: More the sort of thing I always thought of when I heard the name Ingmar Bergman, this meditation on the masks we present, the versions of ourselves we use when we're around other people is challenging. But it's also captivating. Typically gorgeous; the location work, the lighting, the whole thing looks amazing. It's charged with eroticism, but also with gut level discomfort. I'll certainly be revisiting this film, but it's not one to just pop in on a whim.
The Robe: The film assumes you already know the story of Jesus. Probably not a bad assumption, but I always have a bit of a problem with a movie that makes assumptions like that. It's interesting, and there are some good performances. But for a film that is so much about converting to being a follower of Jesus, there is precious little in the way of explanation as to why someone would. Spiritual quest wise, this film lacked some important content.
Glengarry Glenn Ross: Another of my cinematic resolutions for 2014 down. The sad, stressful life of salesmen is presented Mamet style in this punchy little film. Looking at it, you'd think it was made for TV. But what it lacks in visual flourish or polish, it makes up for in performance and script. Alan Arkin and Jack Lemmon are both very good. But Jonathan Pryce and Al Pacino really had me. Pacino is such a huckster, and Pryce such a sad-sack mark.
Friday night, we headed out to The Alamo to check out the new Apes film. Before the theater, though, we ate at Nando's Peri Peri. I'm definitely going to have to go back when there's more time. Because that shopping area is starting to open up, there are a lot of people, and the restaurant was pretty full. I enjoyed the food, but didn't feel like I had time to really enjoy the place or think about what I wanted to eat, or any of that. Next time.
Dawn of the Planet of the Apes: Humans have mostly died in plagues and wars. The apes, after having escaped into the woods at the end of the previous film, have set themselves up a new society and are doing pretty well. Things can't last, as the human survivors need resources that lay in Ape territory. Here's the thing. This movie is pretty good. And all the stuff around the apes is quite good. The problem is that the human characters are kind of ridiculously stock, and at no point did I care about them or their plight. The apes were interesting, and I'd have liked the film to focus much more on them. In fact, completely on them. I could have used way, way less human parts. Visually impressive and well made, it's a good film. Maybe even a really good film. But it misses the mark on being a great film.
The Last Wave: I wasn't in the right headspace to watch this film. So, while I recognize that there were some interesting aspects, and I liked the performances, I just couldn't get into it. I think I'm going to have to revisit it while I'm more focused. There are some powerful images, for sure. And I like the Michael Mann movie type soundtrack. I have a feeling this is a movie I'll really enjoy on second viewing, when my head is on straight.
True Detective: Season 1: "You are like the Michael Jordan of being a son of a bitch." This is a beautifully made program, with lots of excellent elements. The last episode spoils the milk a bit, but the overall show is quite good. I love the references to Robert W. Chambers and his King in Yellow. I wish it had gone a bit further. I wanted to see the mythology of the murders explored.
Saturday night, I forced myself to push through Aya: Life in Yop City, a book I'd been laboring through. I had to skim much of the latter half of the book, as nothing seemed to happen, and that was becoming a bit much. Sad, because the art was interesting and vibrant, and I thought the subject matter and setting could be really interesting. I still do; but this isn't. I was fully planning on writing a review of this book. But the more I look at it sitting there, the less of a crap I give, and the less I feel the need to revisit it. We'll be discussing it this coming Friday night, and other than some variation of 'YAWN!' I've got no idea what to say.

(Originally published 24-JUL-2012)
Yesterday I took the day off. Completely off. No work, no housework, nothing but spending the day with Abby.
First we dropped Boo off at her school. Then....
We went to Dunkin Donuts and discovered the joy of the new Oreo donut. We went shopping. When offered the choice between doing our nails or going to a playground she chose the playground. We went to lunch, her choice where she could make our own pizza.
I was told I was the best mom ever (I am writing it down to remember when she is 16). I was told that we 'have the most fun together' (I am saving this for the college years).
Then I was told something was missing. I'm biting my tongue to not tell her to be selfish when she says:
The only thing missing was Boo.

Thoughts From A Left Field Perspective
>> Tuesday, May 31, 2011
"I'm not sure I want popular opinion on my side -- I've noticed those with the most opinions often have the fewest facts." ~ Bethania McKenstry
I've been busy/lazy lately. I have a day off today, so I've decided to offer my thoughts on a couple of things that have recently dominated the news, while I have time.
First, the Harold Camping "end of the world" fiasco. Of course, we all knew this was ridiculous. As soon as he decided on the exact day and hour the world would end, people who actually read the Bible (let alone understand it)automatically knew it wouldn't happen on May 21, 2011 at 6:00 P.M. EST.
It was a self defeating prediction.
If God had originally planned to end it all on that particular date and time, He would have simply changed His plans, right?
Perhaps not. The way I see it, even if Camping had been correct, it doesn't mean he knew when it was going to happen. It would have only meant he guessed right. One second after the event, all the world would have known that Camping's prediction was merely a coincidence.
Nevertheless, we quoted the verse in Mark 13:32, "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.", but most of us left out the next verse, which reads, "Be on guard! Be alert! You do not know when that time will come."
It is in that context that I submit Camping did us all a service if, as the Bible says, "we have ears to hear".
I don't know about my two readers, but I have a renewed faith as a result of the "end of the world" thing. It has made me more cognizant of my responsibility to live and share my faith. By heeding the warning to be ready, we make more of an effort to try to be Christlike.
Camping has reminded us, in a bizarre, backwards kind of way, that we should live our lives as if Jesus is coming today. because, He just might.
I wish I could put it more clearly, but hopefully, my two readers will get my point.
Now, the entrance of Herman Cain into the 2012 Presidential race:
In the end, he probably won't be nominated to be the Republican candidate, but from my perspective (which, as my two long time readers may attest, is from about four rows back in the bleacher seats waaaaay out in left field), Herman Cain would have the best chance of all of the Republican hopefuls of defeating Obama in 2012.
Mind you, I do not say he is the best candidate. That remains to be seen. But, barring some revelation of malfeasance or impropriety or some other negative, besides being labeled an "Uncle Tom", an "Oreo", or a "house nigger" or some other racially tinged insult (because you know, the Democrats will make those charges and more), he can defeat Obama.
At this point, I believe the defeat of Obama is more important than putting the best Republican in the oval office.
Let's save the country first, then worry about improving it.
Here is the reason I say Herman Cain can defeat Obama:
96% of black voters voted for Obama in 2008. I saw a poll a couple of months ago (which I can't seem to find now. Perhaps a reader can have more success locating it than I did), which indicated that 96% of black voters still intend to vote for Obama in 2012.
Now, 96% of the black vote in 2008 can be a coincidence. Other conclusions can possibly be drawn from those numbers. There could well be some other reasons that so many black voters voted for Obama other than race. Even a white Democrat traditionally gets somewhere over 80% of the black vote regardless of his stance on the issues.
But, two years later, even after it became clear to black voters that Obama will not pay their mortgage, or buy them gas for their cars as he promised, the staggering percentage of blacks who would still vote for Obama makes it as clear as an azure sky of deepest summer that blacks overwhelmingly support Obama simply because he is, like them, black.
So, obviously, it doesn't matter that Obama has consistently betrayed the black voters in America. It doesn't matter that he has failed to keep any of the promises he made to his black constituency. It doesn't matter that many of his policies have been harmful rather than helpful to black Americans.
They will vote according to race.
He could be as discriminatory against blacks as the Ku Klux Klan, but because he is black himself, an overwhelming majority of blacks would still vote for him.
It is estimated that blacks make up approximately 12 to 13% of the United States' population. In the 2008 election, blacks turned out to vote in record numbers. Those black voters swept Obama into office. Without the black vote, McCain would have probably won.
Enter Herman Cain. A black man.
If Cain is the Republican nominee facing off against Barack Hussein Obama in the 2012 election, black voters will suddenly face a choice they have never had to make before.
They will have to choose between two black men for president.
And therefore, a dilemma.
The way I see it, there are more than two choices for blacks under this scenario:
1. A Democrat black candidate.
2. A Republican black candidate.
3. To vote for a black man who offers empty promises of "hope and change" but has failed to deliver.
4. To vote for a black man who offers real common sense solutions to the problems facing all Americans, including black Americans, and not just "bumper sticker" slogans..
5. Vote for a third party candidate.
6. Vote for a write-in candidate, or
7. Don't vote at all.
Recent polls (that I did find) indicate blacks are disappointed in Obama. Some estimate that as many as 15-20% of those who voted for Obama in 2008 do not approve of the job he's done thus far.
This doesn't necessarily mean they won't vote for him again in 2012.
However, if that disappointment manifests itself in the polls on election day, many of the above choices will no doubt be made.
If black voters make any of the above choices besides the first and third choices, Herman Cain can win in 2012.

To mark the launch of Audi's second-generation RS 3 Sportback, we're embarking on an epic journey that will put the car's key features to the test:
The RS 3 uses the latest Audi racing technology to deliver incredible power to the road. Providing an uncompromised driving experience, it showcases exceptional sportsmanship inside and out with its sleek, muscular finish.
The all-new RS 3 Sportback has an impressive acceleration time of just 4.3 seconds from 0-100 km/h. And with a 249 km/h standard top speed, which can be delimited to 200 km/h, it's a fierce competitor in any environment*.
*where the law permits.
The RS 3 combines TFSI turbocharging and direct injection technology for improved engine responsiveness and a power output of 270 kW. Boasting a maximum torque of 465 Nm, the all-new RS 3 delivers extraordinary performance on the road.
Enjoy increased agility when cornering thanks to variable steering ratio. The leather steering wheel boasts a flat-bottomed design complemented by the Alcantara trim and aluminium-look gear shift paddles, with contrast stitching and an RS emblem.
The high-precision steering and TFSI turbocharging allowed the RS 3 to impress during the first challenge of its epic journey.
The RS 3 challenged the legendary 80s A1 B-Class quattro rally car by taking part in an action-packed dash on a forested track.
Both equipped with a 5-cylinder engine, the cars took turns taking the lead. The RS 3 had no trouble keeping up or setting the pace, tearing through the woodland, catching air over jumps and skidding through the dirt with the rally car.
After a thrilling sprint over hostile terrain, the rally car changed course with a hand-brake turn, as the RS 3 charged on.
The RS 3's 19-inch high performance brake system ensures you're in full control of the road. In stylish high-gloss paint and displaying the iconic RS logo, the callipers grip each of the wave-design brake discs for ultimate performance and race-car looks.
The RS 3 comes with Fine Nappa leather Sport seats, complete with RS 3 embossing and contrast stitching. The seats boast shaped side bolsters for better lateral support when cornering, and the RS Super Sports seat option offers added sport luxury.
This, combined with the powerful brakes, enabled the RS 3 to outshine hockey players on an ice rink as it continued its journey.
The RS 3 pushed its high performance brakes to the limits, bending the rules in an ice hockey game.
Catching the unsuspecting hockey team unawares, the RS 3 entered the rink, kicking up a shard of ice, before racing around the stunned players. Perfecting effortless 360 degree spins, getting involved in the game, and challenging players to a race, the RS 3 demonstrated its powerful brakes and Sports steering to stunning effect.
Unbeaten once again, the RS 3 left the ice rink, heading for its third encounter.
With improved traction, stability and acceleration, the RS 3 will have no interruption in power flow. You'll hardly notice the gearshift process as the sporty s-tronic gearbox allows shifting from one gear to the next in less than 0.2 seconds.
The RS 3's quattro permanent all-wheel drive technology delivers outstanding road-holding in all weathers, on all terrains. Driving extra power to the remaining wheels if one were to lose traction, it provides exceptional grip in the most demanding situations.
This increased responsiveness on the road allowed the RS 3 to excel in its final challenge – racing a speedboat on a causeway at high tide.
Next, the RS 3 abandoned the road for a tension-soaked race against a speedboat.
Without hesitation, it ventured onto a causeway covered by high tide, kicking up water in its wake. Once on the sand, the RS 3 effortlessly raced on the soft terrain thanks to quattro's improved traction, stability and acceleration. Against the odds, the RS 3 out-did the high-speed vehicle in an unfamiliar environment.
A close call, but once again unbeaten, the RS 3 headed off for the final stage of its epic journey.
Discover the road ahead with unparalleled clarity thanks to LED technology – the new standard for the RS 3. With a continuous beam of light similar to daylight, both headlights and brake lights boast a sleek design that completes its striking look.
The RS 3's HDD-based MMI navigation system will guide you to your destination with ease. You'll have access to a 3D map and point-of-interest display. And, because destinations can be entered with both speech and text, your attention can remain firmly on the road.
The RS 3 embarks on its final journey to the UK with ease thanks to LED headlights and the MMI navigation system.
The 'Born Restless' RS 3 Sportback completed its epic journey at The Goodwood Festival of Speed. Sneaking in at the crack of dawn before the festival opened to the public, the RS 3 had its fun driving past the Goodwood house, up and down the Goodwood hill, through the finish line and alongside the iconic flint wall.
If you're heading down to The Goodwood Festival of Speed this weekend you might just be lucky enough to catch the car on the Audi stand.
Find out more about what's happening at The Goodwood Festival of Speed 2015.

Divination holds a strong fascination and from antiquity images of feet and shoes have been used as good luck talismen. No satisfactory explanation has ever been proffered. The purpose of this blog is to record some of the better known foot and shoe superstitions in an attempt to promote better understanding. This is an add free site.

Feet, Shoes and Superstition : Stepping Out
Traveling in the Middle Ages carried with it many pearls and much store was placed on rituals to protect the vulnerable. An old Scottish tradition was to throw a shoe over the house before embarking on a journey. Wherever the toe pointed when the shoe landed determined the direction the journey would start. The custom's serendipitous nature might have had a practical use by simply preventing pre-planned ambush as murderous robbery was common. When a shoe landed, sole uppermost this was thought to be a bad omen and alternative plans were made.
A common belief in the Middle Ages was human smell deterred evil workings. People rarely washed and smell of human odour was ever present on clothing and shoes. The practice of leaving an old shoe outside the front door of a dwelling before setting out on a journey was a common practice. A remnant of this custom is seen today in garden ornaments shaped as old boots, often used as flower pots.
Throwing shoes after someone setting out on a journey was thought to bring good luck and reference to this superstition appears in the literature of the 17th century onwards.
"For this thou shalt from all things seek,
Marrow of mirth and laughter,
And wheresoever thou move, good luck,
Shall throw her old shoe after."
Lord Alfred Tennyson (1809 - 1892)
The modern custom of tying old shoes to the bridal carriage or car may be a variation upon this good luck custom. In Transylvania the same gesture was thought to increase fertility. Throwing the shoe was taken to wish the couple a fulfilling life together with procreation being a very important part of that union.
In Latin, 'conficere' means to prepare which is a source of the word confetti. In Medieval Italy the custom was to throw sweetmeats (candy) at carnivals but by the 19th century the custom was freely practised in England at weddings and special occasions. Sweets were replaced by paper shapes in symbolic form and colour and shoes were included.
Suspicious travellers were always wary of morning travel with Monday considered a bad to travel. Once started on a journey the first person a traveller met was called the 'first fit.' The first fit was treated as an omen for the journey ahead. When the first fit was a red haired barefooted woman then disaster was sure to follow. Flat footed (or splay footed) people were especially bad luck and in Scotland they were called "the ill Fit "or jinxes. Travelers keen to continue with their journey tried to undo impending malice by observing rituals such as drawing blood from the first fit's forehead which was done in the form of a cross. The alternative was to return home, cross the threshold with the right foot, eat and drink, then set out again.
The fear of flat feet was in part reinforced by a misinterpretation on the Scriptures. In Genesis 1:27, man was described as being created in the divine image of God, early Judo-Christians interpreted this as all men (not women) should be God like. Contemporary artists used idealized and stereotypical forms were used to depict the body beautiful. This was particularly inaccurate in the absence of human dissection. The clichéd Christian foot was well formed with high arch and straight toes. Any misshapenness came to represent all that was evil with a painful flat foot confirmation to the faithful of the presence of God's wrath.
During the infamous European witch hunts (circa 1450 -1700) tens of thousands of people were executed on the flimsiest of evidence. At trial, confessions by torture, were generally accepted as proof of guilt. Peter Binsfeld wrote the influential treatise De confessionibus maleficorum et sagarum (Of the Confessions of Warlocks and Witches) and it became an authoritative reference on demonic signs which included physical disfigurement. Asymptomatic flat feet were viewed with particular suspicion and following public executions to avoid a peasant revolt based on remorse, authorities searched the bodies post mortem for signs of demonic possession. Post mortem flatfoot frequently confirmed the presence of evil.
Travellers carried talisman for luck and to ward off evil spirits. One quaint custom was to put a fern leaf in the shoes. Ferns had particular significance to early Christians because both the stem and root of the fern are marked with a 'C.' However, the special powers of the fern predate Christianity and a pagan belief was fern bloom accidentally dropped on the shoes of a traveller would give them individual knowledge of the speech of animals, birds, trees and bees. In the Northern Hemisphere, ferns blossomed deep in the forest around the Summer Solstice (June 22nd) but only the mature plants gave off golden seed and these were quite difficult to find. Woodman and those more familiar with a very hostile environment were more likely to find the plants so when a layperson happens upon it by chance this was considered a very special event which might only occur only once in a lifetime. When the shoes were removed the magical powers disappeared but if a fern was in the shoe this protected the owner from witches and forest goblins.
Other variations were to sprinkle salt or in the Southern States of the US, small red pepper pods in the shape of a cross were placed in the left shoe or boot for good luck, some authorities insisted before these spells could work the footwear had to be incinerated. Superstitions involving salt date back to Biblical times. It was a highly prized commodity and its presence was thought to keep the devil at bay.
In Mediterranean culture during antiquity walking with one shoe/sandal on and the other off had significant meaning. Men on a quest which involved hazardous enterprises started their journey with the right foot shod and the left, bare and this sartorial code came to represented 'death or glory' in Greek Mythology. The downfall of King Pelias was foretold by the presence of a man with one sandal (Jason). Not all cultures share the same beliefs and in North America walking with one boot only was thought to bring as many bad days as steps taken. Waking from sleep with one shoe on and the other off was a divination thought to bring bad luck for a year. Certainly the circumstances with which we might find ourselves waking with one shoe on and the other off might be when we are bent on a task too focused to notice hazardous elements, like unseen furniture. The resultant knock could easily be explained as bad luck. A fashion in the Middle Ages was for male courtiers to wear different coloured tights and corresponding shoes with the common belief wearing unmatched shoes was a sign of good luck.

But it also doesn't stop there. John Loftus, a former Justice Department prosecutor, wrote in an article on 31 May 2002:
In the early 1990's, a [•]consortium of American oil companies (lead by Unocal) had hired [•]Enron to determine the profitability of building an oil and gas pipeline across Afghanistan.Having now learned this, I'm surprised that the right isn't beating the drums about Clinton's coverup of the pipeline negotiations being solely responsible for 9/11 and the war in Iraq. However, the left does need to accept the fact that the Clinton administration shares part of the blame for allowing the situation to go on as long as it did. According to Loftus, "The Taliban negotiations temporarily collapsed in 1999 after Clinton reversed his NSC advisor's policy, and ordered a missile strike against terrorists in Afghanistan." But during the first month of the Bush presidency, Cheney "allegedly reinstated the [•]intelligence block and expanded it to effectively preclude any investigations whatsoever of Saudi-Taliban-Afghan oil connections."
Former Afghanistan CIA agent [•]Robert Baer has recently published a book charging that the cover-up of the 1990's pipeline negotiations [with the •Taliban] revealed extensive financial corruption inside the [•]Clinton administration, and contributed to the lack of intelligence before 9/11.
And, as you can probably guess, it doesn't stop there. The dot that precedes Clinton is •Bush Sr., who, according to Loftus (but with no supporting information, so caveat lector regarding Loftus), "was business partners in the Carlyle Group with the [•]Bin Laden family during this period." Loftus states that Bush Sr. "lectured" Bush Jr. that he should placate the Saudis. Loftus then writes that Bush Jr. ignored his father's advice
and secrtely ordered all American troops to begin a total withdrawal from Saudi Arabia. White House sources began a steady drumbeat of leaks about Saudi involvement with terrorism, and even authorized long-delayed raids on the Saudi charities in Virginia that served as a money laundry for terrorist operations against Israel.But it doesn't stop there. To follow the dots to their logical origin, we need to go all the way back to the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in December 1979, when Carter had one year left in his term. According to Loftus:
Suddenly, President Bush made a sudden and startling switch to adopt a more pro-Saudi view. The [•]documents seized in the Virginia raids are barely being translated, let alone investigated.
A plausible explanation for the dramatic policy reversal is that someone (allegedly Cheney) told President Bush to call off the dogs at CIA and FBI, because if the Saudis went down, they would take his father down with them.
[•]Saudi intelligence (not the CIA as has been reported) funded the early Taliban faction and later [•]Al Qaida as part of the insurgency to throw the Russians out of Afghanistan. A few years afterwards, US energy companies (Enron, as the Afghan pipeline consultant for UNOCAL) used the Saudi intelligence connection to the Taliban to begin negotiations for a pipeline across Afghanistan.It's doubtful that the negotiations with the Taliban had begun yet in the final year of the Carter presidency, and so the origin dot should be placed within the •Reagan administration. An oil pipeline was dreamed up by American energy companies, and negotiations with the Taliban were subsequently covered up by the Reagan, Bush Sr., Clinton and Bush Jr. administrations. Those negotiations finally collapsed in August 2001, precipitating the 9/11 attacks.
AfterDowningStreet.org offers a detailed timeline that begins on 1 December 1998 with Wolfowitz publishing an •article stating that •Saddam must be taken out.
Following is a sampling from the timeline.
On 16 December 2000, •Powell states that "Saddam Hussein is sitting on a failed regime that is not going to be around in a few years' time."
In February 2001, the Bush administration suggests that replacements for Saddam be interviewed.
On 24 February 2001, Powell states that Saddam "has not developed a significant capability with respect to weapons of mass destruction."
On 11 September 2001, Rumsfeld is quoted as saying "[I want the] best info fast. Judge whether good enough hit S.H. [Saddam Hussein] at same time. Not only UBL [Usama bin Laden]. ... Go massive. Sweep it all up. Things related and not."
On 20 September 2001, Bush tells •Blair "We must deal with this first. But when we have dealt with Afghanistan, we must come back to Iraq."
In February 2002, Senator Bob Graham is told "We have stopped fighting the war on terror in Afghanistan. We are [•]moving military and intelligence personnel and resources out of Afghanistan to get ready for a future war in Iraq."
From June 2002 to March 2003, •"Allies flew 21,736 sorties over southern Iraq, attacking 349 carefully selected targets."
In July 2002, "They get the [•]money [to prepare for the invasion of Iraq] from a supplemental appropriation for the Afghan War, which Congress has approved...Congress was totally in the dark on this."
23 July 2002: The Downing Street Minutes are written.
In September 2002, the Defense Intelligence Agency reports "There is no reliable information on whether Iraq is producing and stockpiling chemical weapons."
On 18 September 2002, Saddam offers to allow inspectors to return and Bush •calls this "his latest ploy."
At the Doo-Dah Parade in Pasadena, California on 24 November 2002.
28 January 2003: The •State of the Union Address includes "sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa."
20 March 2003: U.S. forces •invade Iraq.
On 30 March 2003, Rumsfeld pinpoints WMD in Tikrit and Baghdad in an ABC interview.
1 May 2003: "Mission Accomplished."
On 14 May 2003, Rumsfeld says "I don't believe anyone that I know in the administration ever said that Iraq had nuclear weapons."
On 6 July 2003, •Wilson concludes "that some of the intelligence related to Iraq's nuclear weapons program was twisted to exaggerate the Iraqi threat."
11 July 2003: Rove's conversation with •Cooper.
14 July 2003: •Novak outs •Plame.
16 September 2003: •McClellan denies Rove involvement.
On 22 January 2004, Special Prosecutor •Patrick Fitzgerald presents a grand jury with evidence regarding the Plame leak.
6 October 2004: The Duelfer Report regarding WMD is published.
1 May 2005: The Downing Street Memo is leaked.
7 June 2005: Bush says "There is nothing farther from the truth. My conversation with the prime minister was, 'How can we do this peacefully?'"
So...as it turns out, if you connect the dots, you get a detailed picture of an oil pipeline crossing the arid terrain of Afghanistan. Suitable for framing. Free with any purchase, while supplies last.

Ballet is a very traditional popular dance style that has been enjoyed for many years. It originated in the Italian Renaissance in the 15th century and then was developed in France and Russia. This dance style is very much based around technique and elegance, which portray each movement telling a story through both the movement and music.
Your child will learn basic skills such as skipping, galloping and plies.
Ballet classes are taught using the British Ballet Organisation syllabus, with a chance to take a performance or technical exam when students meet the required standard.

Luke 15:1-3, 11-32
For many, God is anything but someone who is able to bring joy to their lives. Thinking about Him brings bad memories -- the idea of a threatening and demanding being, who makes life annoying, uncomfortable and dangerous, is aroused inside them.
Little by little they have dispensed with Him. Faith has been "repressed" inside them. Today, they don't know if they believe or not. They have been left without paths to God. Some still remember "the parable of the prodigal son," but they've never heard it in their hearts.
The real protagonist of that parable is the father. He repeats the same cry of happiness twice: "This son of mine was dead, and has come to life again; he was lost, and has been found." This cry reveals what is in his heart as a father.
This father doesn't care about his honor, his own interests, or how his children treat him. He doesn't use moralizing language. He only thinks of his son's life -- that it not be destroyed, that he not remain dead, that he not be lost without knowing the joy of life.
The story describes in full detail the surprising meeting of the father with the son who had abandoned the home. While he was still far away, the father "saw" him coming, hungry and humiliated, and he "was moved" to the very heart. That good look, filled with kindness and compassion, is what saves us. Only God looks at us like that.
Then he "starts running." It's not the son who comes home. It's the father who runs out and seeks the embrace with more ardor than his own son. "He threw his arms around him and started to kiss him." That's how God always is...running with open arms towards those who come back to Him.
The son begins his confession -- he has prepared it a long time inside himself. The father interrupts him to save him from more humiliation. He doesn't impose any punishment on him, he doesn't require any ritual of expiation, he doesn't put any condition at all on welcoming him home. Only God welcomes and protects sinners this way.
The father thinks only of his son's dignity. He must act quickly. He orders the best clothes, the son's ring and sandals to be brought to enter the house. Thus he will be received at a banquet that will be celebrated in his honor. With his father, the son will know a worthy and blessed life that he has not enjoyed far from him.
Anyone who hears this parable from outside, won't understand anything. They will go on walking through life without God. Anyone who listens to it from the heart, will perhaps weep with joy and thankfulness. For the first time they will feel that in the ultimate mystery of life there is Someone who welcomes and forgives us because He only wants our happiness.

This is my first eye makeup tutorial! I thought about it so many times and after many requests I decided to try ^^ I wear a lot of different make ups so if you have some questions or you want a different tutorial let me know, I'll do my best to make it! I cannot make a video but I hope the pictures will be enough to make you understand ^^
1° Apply a shimmery natural pink eye shadow over the whole lid. I used "Sin" from Urban Decay ( Naked 1), but obviously you can use whatever you want, I added the products only in case you wanted to know ^^!
2° Apply in the inner and outer corner a brown eye shadow. I used Darkhorse from Urban Decay.
3° Apply the same brown eye shadow in the lower eyelid (except the most inner part of it).
4° Apply a gold eye shadow in the beginning of your lower eyelid. I used Half Baked from Urban Decay.
5° Apply a thin liner with black eye liner, I used "Eyeliner precisione" from Deborah.
6° Apply a pink-reddish blush really near the eyes. I used MAC blush in Dolly mix.
7° And lastly apply your favorite upper and lower false eye lashes, I used Angel eye from Diamond Lash for the upper part, and a cheap pair from ebay for the lower part. Don't forget to add them before the mascara and curling your own eye lashes! (mine are so straight that nothing can curl them ahahah).
And the final look! It's really easy to do and it suits a lot of different styles!

IT Contracting offered by Antal IT Services is a flexible manner of cooperation within a set timeframe during which a specific task (project) should be carried out. The IT Contracting services provided by Antal IT Services involve assigning qualified IT specialists to our clients. This business solution makes it possible to expand the company's IT team with additional professionals on short notice, or create new teams altogether, without the need to utilize the company's internal recruitment procedures.
Why is IT Contracting worth considering?
- Flexible employment suited to changing needs that allows temporary expansion or supplementation of company structures.
- Fluent execution of tasks during periods of heightened activity and numerous temporary projects without the need of hiring permanent employees
- Utilizing the competencies and experience of individuals without the need of providing permanent employment (T&M model)
- Limiting the number of employees and the company's hiring needs which, in effect, lowers employment risk
The advantages of using Antal International's IT Contracting
- Quick access to IT professionals
- Dynamic cooperation - we adjust to the changes that may be encountered during the execution of a project

- Outsourcing recruitment and candidate verification tasks
- Outsourcing human resource and payroll formalities.
Try & Hire
Due to market demand, we have added the Try & Hire service to our offer. This model supplements the IT Contracting services by giving your company a chance to hire an IT expert once their contract is terminated. Beside the advantages of contract employment, you will also have an opportunity to verify the IT professional's competencies and efficiency before deciding on permanent employment. This will allow you to avoid bad employment decisions.

Today, I spent a couple of hours downloading and installing Inspire on my teacher computer in room 126. I was able to install the actual software and get it running. However, I tried to install the resource file and it wouldn't go. I got a warning saying that the resource could not be installed on a network account and that I should switch to a local user account and try again.
This is a big issue. I have a local user account on the computer but only because I knew how to do it. They don't come that way. To make this accessible for all the staff when our Smartboard replacing Promethean boards are installed, it needs to be easy to get the software running and have all the "bells and whistles" to go with it.
I haven't had a chance to play with the 1.0 version. It looks similar to the Beta version. I hope that tomorrow, I have time to use it and maybe even pull out the Activexpressions. If it truly is improved from beta to 1.0, then I shouldn't have any of the crashing issues that I had before when trying to be things.
As for teaching paperless, the Activexpressions will eliminate paper for warm-ups and exit slips.

After Marching
I said I wouldn't march. In fact, I promised myself I had gotten all the marching out of my system. The day after the election, I protested Donald Trump's presidency — protests that turned to riots. I therefore came to the conclusion in November that protesting Trump was not the solution. Yet at 6:00 o'clock on Saturday morning, I found myself on the floor of an LA hotel room, scrambling to make a poster that read: "My body. My choice. My country. My voice."
I had initially considered marching. As a self-identifying feminist, I understood the importance of fighting for women's rights. As a young woman of color, I understood the importance of amending systems rife with racism. As a climate-enthusiast, I understood the importance of expedient climate-action. But as a patriot, I understood that this march, this protest of the process of democracy, this opposition to the incoming administration, would only divide us further.
I was also worried about the voices that wouldn't be heard: those who lived in cities without marches; those without the means to take a day off from work or who couldn't afford to fly to Washington and rent an overpriced Airbnb; those who were physically unable to participate. I was worried that this feminist movement, like so many others, would exclude diverse voices — whether that be color, sexuality, socio-economic status, or family structure.
But as I heard more about measures of inclusivity like the Disability March, a Million Women's Voices platform, and the guiding principles of the Women's March, I became convinced that the organizers of this march were trying to do right by all of us. At the last minute, I consulted my Women's Studies teacher and longtime feminist role-model about the turmoil I was experiencing. She reiterated to me the consistent imperative of thinking intersectionally, or that all things are connected: our beliefs, our government, our values, and public policy all shape our lives. She reminded me of the importance of unity in community, of standing with our feminist sisters and brothers. Moreover, she reiterated that showing up for our beliefs together, rather than apart, will make us stronger.
I am glad that I showed up for what I believe in. I showed up because I have witnessed Donald Trump call women fat, ugly, pigs, dogs, losers, slobs, disgusting animals, and pieces of ass. I have seen him poke fun at menstruation and support lawmakers who want to take away our rights to our bodies. I showed up because Scott Pruitt is the nominee for the EPA, and I do not share his vision for our planet's future: one that is rife with pollution, degradation, and disaster. I showed up because my brothers and sisters of all colors are subject to the systemic racism of our nation's criminal justice system; for families and communities of color in Ferguson, Charleston, Staten Island, and around the nation.
Alongside 2.9 million women and allies nationwide, I took to the streets of LA to fight for what I believe in. I was surrounded by young people and people young at heart who all believe in the same principles of love, unity, and inclusivity as I do; who exhibited unfailing positivity and optimism; and who really want to be a force for change. Unlike the fear, disappointment, and negativity of November 9th, January 21st showed me that positive change is possible.
But we also can't let Saturday be a token of cheap altruism. We must keep the momentum of our movement going, must keep the energy for change alive. So when the shit hits the fan and policies that threaten our bodies, our brothers and sisters, and our planet are promoted we can rise up. Donate to the causes you believe in with your money, time, or heart. Educate yourself on why this matters, now. And then maybe we can show Donald Trump that this was not a staged protest, that we are not just bitter about the election, but that we are not going anywhere.

I and my identical twin brother have a weird genetic disorder. At the age of 16, we became hyperprone to stretch marks and so I avoided serious athletic exercise. At 24 I developed rosacea and neck ring wrinkles. At 28.5 I developed two stomach wrinkles, stretch marks from sitting, persistant folliculitis, black heads on my nose, back acne, and delayed wound healing. I had a battery of blood tests done and so far the only that has come back abnormal is that i have 3 times the dhea and very low salivary, secretory IgA. Anyone have any ideas? I don't know immunology very much. I don't have hypermobile joints (no Ehler's Danlos) or high cortisol (no Cushing's syndrome). I am normal weight, normal blood pressure. There are so many smart people on this site. Please let me know what you think. Anyone heard of people with similiar symptoms? I can only think that my skin and my adrenals are hypersensitive to cortisol. Please help!Reply Follow This Thread Stop Following This Thread Flag this Discussion

Last Walk Around this year in the little gardens

Just beautiful little gardens. So I planted an apple seed and it took! I am so excited but then I started to research about growing apple trees and it's all sorts of involved. There is Grafting and such?! I don't know, I don't think this will actually take, but it must be about 5 inches tall (in my basement, in my studio, under lights). I have dreams about gardens like this!

The Getty Center was on our list of things to see in Los Angeles.
It was really worth it as is a beautiful building overlooking the city with a great garden around it, with lots of cacti which I love. But more so I adored the shades the building created while the sun was shining.
I like to look at photos and to be transformed back to the moment of it, like in the first photo, I remember that I really wanted to capture the shades and I think I waited 10 minutes to take it as people would come and go to enjoy the view there.
More to come

I love to see a bit of the garden in your pictures. Normally everyone focuses just on the architecture, but I fell like the plants and the buildings belong together...

While Nick Viall threw the remaining Bachelor contestants to the sharks last night — literally — Corinne Olympios proved that she was the real apex predator. After she didn't earn the top spot on the group date, she decided to assert herself, which is something that Viall encouraged, and went in for the kill.
According to Us Weekly, during a segment on the podcast Channel 33, Viall details exactly what happened that night. However, his story doesn't exactly line up with the footage shown on this week's episode.
After maybe kind-of, sort-of faking a BFF moment with the other competitors, Olympios sneaks away from the group and dolls herself up. No, there isn't some sort of beach selfie session on the schedule. Instead, she heads into Viall's suite and attempts a sensual seduction.
"We went further on the bouncy castle!" Viall said on the podcast, referencing a previous (and very tame) episode when the podcast's hosts asked about what happened. "Like literally, nothing happened. Certainly, we kissed a little bit."
In Us' clip of the show, things look like they got a little bit further than a simple make-out session. "Let's dive into bed," Olympios can be heard saying. And although Viall says, "I don't think this is a good idea," Olympios' hair does look a little messy when she emerges from his bedroom. Plus, she managed to survive the night's rose ceremony, so she certainly did something to stack the odds in her favor. What exactly? We'll never know.
"I don't know what she had in mind," Us reports Viall said during his Channel 33 segment. "We kissed, and before things really got started, I just said, 'Hey, let's slow down.' But at the same time, I didn't want her to feel like she did anything wrong — she didn't do anything wrong. [...] There's nothing wrong with her trying to find more time and focusing on our relationship."
Viall adds that he had his microphone on the entire time, so any questions that viewers have can be answered via the audio. But hey, editors do what editors do, so Olympios and Viall's night could have been much more involved than they're leading fans to believe.

The image was lit from directly in front. One 1600X White Lightning into a Photogenic 60″ eclipse umbrella. Post-production took about an hour. If you want to know how to enhance these fashion shots in CS4. Go to Lynda.com and work on the fashion tutorials by Chris Orwig. He's a great teacher.

Chitwan Jungle Safari
5 Days | December 2008
Bipin our Trip Consultant handled all of our emails as soon as he received them and was informative and helpful in spite of our constant questions. He changed our booking and group numbers on more than one occasion and was always polite and friendly. In person he was just the same – we had a great night out with our hosts, a lovely ride to Chitwan (in spite of our silent driver!) and all in all a fantastic experience. I'll be recommending Social Tours to all my friends as the best way to see

There is an error in the owner's handbook for Citigos with automated manual transmission (AMT), stating that the car should be left in neutral when stationary.
The handbook should instruct owners to leave the car in drive or reverse when stationary, to avoid any risk of the vehicle rolling away if the handbrake is not fully applied.
The handbook will be updated with the correct information. However, this will not happen until the next release, which could be next year.

Tuesday 23rd April; Shakespeare's birthday, International Day of the Book , World Book Night and St George's Day. A Tuesday of treasure for readers everywhere – great literature, favourite books and, especially for those of us here in Coventry, DRAGONS!
Oh, you didn't know that St George was said to have been born and died in Coventry, saving a fair maiden from the jaws of a dragon whilst here? Yes, Wikipedia will tell you otherwise, but we like to believe it's true. (As are fairies, unicorns and brownies who tidy the house when you're asleep.) And this gives us a great excuse to explore that intriguing character who pops up regularly in literature we love.
Here be dragons!

Meningitis B: What you need to know
What is meningitis B, how do you spot it, and the new vaccine
All babies in the UK are offered the meningitis B vaccine at two months, but there are calls for it to be offered to all children.
What is meningitis B?
Meningitis B is a bacterial infection that is most commonly found in children under five years old. It's a potentially fatal illness, but with early diagnosis and antibiotics most people will make a full recovery.
How to spot meningitis
Symptoms of meningitis in a baby or young child include:
- A high fever with cold hands and feet
- Vomiting and refusal to feed
- Agitation and not wanting to be picked up
- Drowsiness, floppiness and unresponsiveness
- Grunting or rapid breathing
- An unusual high-pitched or moaning cry
- Convulsions or seizures
- Stiff neck and a dislike of bright lights
- A tense, bulging soft spot on their head (fontanelle)
- Pale, blotchy skin and a red rash that doesn't fade when a glass is rolled over it
However, the above symptoms can appear in any order and some may not appear at all – don't wait for a rash to develop before seeking medical help, because not everyone will get one.
The new meningitis B vaccine
All babies in the UK are now offered the meningitis B vaccine at two months alongside other routine vaccinations. It's given as a single injection into the baby's thigh, and booster jabs are given at four months and 12 months.
The decision was made to offer the jab to those most at risk, as cases of meningitis B peak in infants at around five or six months of age.
The vaccine is relatively new and the UK is the first country in the world to add the jab to its routine childhood vaccination programme. The jab has been found to be safe and well-tolerated in trials involving more than 8,000 people.

Do you remember the last time you missed a bus or a train?
What was your reaction?
Oops! Shit! …and what not!
Though I encountered many such situations, the recent one would last long down my memory lane. These days, I work less and participate more in meetings(inactively). When I was in one meeting, a glimpse at my watch took me by surprise. I was left with 3 hours to catch a flight to Pune in order to meet a customer the next day. I had to travel all the way from electronic city to airport with a halt at koramangala to pick my baggage.
Though I sailed swiftly through a hefty traffic to reach Koramangala, I took enough time to pack my baggage, take bath and have early dinner. With only one and a half hour to catch the flight, the skillful cab driver fetched me to airport with 20 minutes to spare. When I was about to get down, the sight of the baskin robbins ice-cream outlet tickled my taste buds. I rushed to the shop, got my favorite "pralined cashew" scoop and sprinted to collect my boarding pass. "Sorry! You are late by 4 minutes". These words immediately induced a powerful stare that turned my head towards the cone in my hand.
Then, I said "Waaaw! Thank you" with a big smile on my face.
Even before the Spice Jet employees digest my reply, I canceled the flight ticket and booked another ticket for the next flight, Kingfisher class. I was fortunate enough to get the reimbursement for both the tickets:)

Foot arch pain can be treated by certain exercises, medication, rest and wearing night splints. Ensuring that the ankles, Achilles tendons and calf muscles are flexible is one of the best ways to prevent foot arch pain, according to Medline Plus.
Foot arch pain may be caused by a number of issues including obesity, running on uneven surfaces, shoes with bad arch support, change of routine activity and running for long distances. The most common symptoms associated with this condition include stiffness in the bottom of the foot and a burning sensation in the same location.
To treat this condition, doctors may recommend certain exercises. These stretching exercises help the foot regain its flexibility and fitness. Night splints may be recommended as a way of stretching the foot during the night.
Individuals with this condition are likely to recover quickly if they get plenty of rest for at least 1 week. Rest helps the area affected heal faster and prevents aggravation. An injection containing a steroid and local anesthetic may equally be helpful for those with severe symptoms, notes WebMD.
Placing ice packs on the affected area may help reduce pain and inflammation. Wearing shoes that feature good support and cushions is equally an important step in dealing with foot pain.

Mojio Car Monitoring & Smart Tracking System
- Autel MaxiScan Diagnostic Scan Tool for OBDII Vehicles - $16.39
- Linxup Wired Real-Time GPS Vehicle Tracking System & OBD Device - $64.39
- Personal Pocket GPS Locator/Tracker - $26.99
- MindMobile Phone Reminder, Car Locator & Charger - $49.95
- Motorola Roadster 2 Universal Bluetooth In-Car Speakerphone - $74.99
Mojio is a sort-of mechanic and sort-of babysitter for your car. So I guess it's more like a vehicular personal assistant. Or your mama. The Mojio car monitoring and smart tracking system plugs into most any post-1996 car's On-Board Diagnostic (OBD-II) port, where it analyzes and transmits a constant feed of app-based information about your car's health and whereabouts to your smartphone.
That said, Mojio doesn't want to be confused with another smartphone "accessory". While it does communicate with phones (or tablets, smart watches, etc.) it is not dependent on them/a Bluetooth connection for functionality. Mojio is a 3G+GPS device, so it doesn't need to be in range of your phone to send data, and using it won't drain your phone's battery. Using 3G cellular it will keep you and your car connected regardless of how far apart you are. Note: Mojio purchase includes one year of data.
Obviously this perpetual car-driver contact would come in handy if your car got stolen. So too might you be grateful for the location beacon in a giant parking lot, strange city, or hazy mornings when you wake up wondering, "Dude, where's my car?" Additionally, Mojio monitors car health and general status. It analyzes VINs (Vehicle Identification Numbers) and uses car make, model, and year of production to provide maintenance advice. If something goes wrong, the Mojio Gauge function also attempts to diagnose the problem, or at least tell you when it's time to take your pride & joy in. The system tracks general analytics too, including trip mileage, duration, and fuel costs, plus "events" such as sudden brake depressions and accelerations--the latter to help you "learn about your driving habits."
At printing, many reviewers admired the Mojio concept and intent, but felt the company needs third-party help in developing apps that will make the system more robust and, well, useful. Mojio itself says as much too, albeit in more PR-spun words, on its website when it calls the platform "an ever-expanding ecosystem of mobile apps for our community of drivers," and notes that, "Together, we're making your car more and more like your smartphone."

Music Review: Elton John, Billy Joel's 'Face 2 Face' Concert at Nationals Park
Monday, July 13, 2009
The umpire calls it: Safe!
Safe as houses. Safe as milk. Safe as "Billy Joel's Greatest Hits." Hey, did Bruce Willis grow a goatee and take up the piano? Wait -- that's Billy Joel!
Nationals Park held its opener as a music venue Saturday night, and the reeling concert trade -- despite a dwindling stock of large draws -- deployed two of its big guns: Joel and Elton John. The Piano Man and the Rocket Man began co-headlining their Face 2 Face Tours in 1994, shortly after Joel stopped writing pop albums.
The lumbering double-header they brought to Washington could have been staged that same year, in fact, without any alteration of the 31-song set list. Even 62-year-old Sir Elton, who actually has continued to make new pop music in the present century, focused on material he wrote in his 20s and played nothing more recent than 1983's "I'm Still Standing."
Ballparks are sentimental places, no?
Given the cheers that erupted when their dual grand pianos rose portentously from the bowels of the stage just before game time, it was surprising that neither star ventured a solo take on one of his countless hits during a combined 3 1/2 hours onstage.
Although each brought his own band, the ensembles sounded equally anonymous. Crystal Taliefero's hand-drumming brought some buoyancy to "We Didn't Start the Fire," the "list" song that inspired a thousand high school history projects. Mostly, though, the arrangements were as predictable as the song selection, aside from having been adapted to voices grown thicker with age -- more noticeably in the case of John, whose range was greater to begin with.
A minor variation: "This is what they used to call an 'album cut,' if you remember," Joel said before a time-shifting "Zanzibar." Few in attendance wouldn't, though the front two rows were populated almost entirely by ladies who appeared to fall into that slender, youthful demographic.
The gig opened with two duets, "Your Song" and "Just the Way You Are." Joel allowed himself a self-aware smirk as he crooned the former tune's "I don't have much money." Pimping a purple Technicolor dreamcoat with the phrase "Music Magic" embroidered across the back, John called a timeout after that opening two-fer while a roadie tried to fix a stuck sustain pedal on the royal piano.
As John cursed, relief pitcher Joel played an impromptu and funny "Battle Hymn of the Republic." Joel even crawled under his fuming co-star's piano to try to help solve the problem himself. It was one of the most crowd-pleasing moments of the evening, with three hours to go. "At least you know we're not on tape!" Joel quipped. "This is an authentic rock-and-roll [expletive]. You don't see many of these anymore!"
John finally withdrew while Joel fielded his band for a 65-minute set that opened with a swaggering "Prelude/Angry Young Man." Later, "Don't Ask Me Why" put him in a contemplative mood: "I don't know why you're listening to me," he mused. "That was written for my first ex-wife. And this is the first show I'm doing after three divorces!"
This mookish candor couldn't help but make Joel the more engaging of the pair, despite a longer, glitzier set from John -- not to mention better songs.
By the time the latter reemerged to sweat his way through the opening suite of 1973's "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road," night had fallen on the Anacostia, allowing the LED video rig to flash and blink to full, seizure-inducing effect. A thrilling, then numbing "Rocket Man" first brought a galactic charge to the stadium, but continued until the gig began to feel like a bummed-out pop-star funeral.
After a singalong "Crocodile Rock," Joel returned for another shot at the number they'd aborted earlier, "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me." It was everything the crowd had paid their $102.50-plus for: a mash of the titans who paved the way for a juggernaut of guilty lite-rock pleasures. The seventh-inning stretch had long passed by the time Joel let the audience take a verse of the closing "Piano Man," but they sang with the fervor of a home crowd.

Watching a recent video of a cosmetics entrepreneur sharing her tips on eliminating some toxins from our everyday life was as ludicrous as it was informative.
Sound advice was shared in her thoughts on how to eliminate some daily toxins – found in the air we breath, drinking water, skincare products to household chemicals, plastic containers and ingesting animal products. What bemused me though was that she went on to question why vegetarians and vegans base their eating choices around the sake of caring for animals, yet eat plants; "why would they (vegetarians/vegans) be insensitive to the feelings of plants!"
In response I have found an article from Mikko Alanne, a rabble-rouser, who, rather eloquently, articulates my shared view.
All vegans and vegetarians have heard it: "But what about the plants? What about their feelings? They feel pain, too. Don't you feel bad for the carrots? You are killing them, you know." Sorry, but the above represent the dumbest set of excuses I've ever heard as to why some people claim eating animals is morally equivalent to eating plants. Tellingly, these people's concern for plant feelings has not reared its head over eating a baked potato with steak, or seeing capers in chicken piccata. No, it's arisen because the conversation has turned to cruelty toward the animals we eat, something that's difficult to swallow. If you're one of those plant feelings people, it's time we had a chat. Remember elementary school biology? Even a cursory review tells us that plants and animals are different. Significantly different. For example: Plants have neither brains nor nervous systems with which to feel pain. Does this mean that we can say with absolute certainty that plants cannot have a consciousness or feel pain? I suppose we can never be 100 percent certain… but here's what we do know — for sure — the animals we eat are conscious. And they do most certainly feel pain. And loneliness. And fear. Just like your dog. Your cat. And you.
