So, what's it like working with Donna? Don't take it from us, read what our students and conference attendees have to say:
Victoria, BEL CEO "Donna is an incredibly personable, multi talented and compelling individual. Her wealth of knowledge and candid experience as a celebrity PA has been utilized by a global audience of CEO's and Admin professionals. I invited Donna to share her expertise at our annual Behind Every Leader event and she literally had the audience in stitches! Needless to say, she will be a part of our stellar lineup for years to come."
Ursula: "Hi Donna, you are an inspiration to all of us. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and time!"
Sarah: "This seminar has really made me feel like I can push myself, I am worth more and have skills and why shouldn't PA's share experiences and help each other."
Kristy: "Donna, you were the absolute highlight, most inspirational, simply engaging, delightful speaker, confidant, leader & friendly VIP/PA of this weeks EA/PA convention here in Sydney Ausralia. Thank you! Thank you for your honesty, your integity, your transparency and endless energy. "
Tara: "Workshop today was fantastic and incredibly insightful Donna, thanks again!"
Erika: "Donna was fabulous! I learned a great deal from her."
Carrie: "We all agreed we'd love to see Donna back for BEL NYC!"
Meredith: "A breath of fresh air. She inspired me to be an even better PA."
Client Recommendations
"Donna Coulling has been my personal assistant for ten years and secretly I wish that she'll stay forever because I'm not sure I could function without her. Everyone should have a Donna in their lives. She is my fairy godmother: every wish gets granted. From filing, correspondence, bills, and dealing with the monotonous and never-ending maintenance of house and household, from fixing everything that breaks down -making up for all my incompetence
(Particularly in the breaking down department) Ocado, pet sitting, there is little that Donna cannot do. Superdon is her nickname. She is supersonically efficient, – I've never had to ask her to do anything twice, in fact I barely have to ask once before its done, she has thoughtful initiative, is consistently cheery, has a lovely manner with people, utterly professional in a job where lines could get blurred, fun, discreet, and basically perfect. I would trust her with my life. In fact I do."
Helena Bonham Carter
"Donna is a trouble-shooter. She thinks of everything that could possibly go wrong BEFORE it goes wrong, and that's what makes her great. She is always full of good cheer and pep, and organises everything with charm and ease and total professionalism. She keeps many balls in the air at the same time, and makes it look effortless (which of course it isn't). She is a total joy to work with and I count myself very lucky to have her in my life."

It terrifying to read the results of the WHO on obesity in Poland and in the world.
Unfortunately, every year the percentage of people fighting with being overweight is getting higher, and because of the changing lifestyles of successive generations the situation will deteriorate. In Poland, as many as 18% of men and 21% of women are obese, a much larger group are overweight. Most worrying is the fact that more and more problems with excess body weight are observed among children and teenagers.
It's time to realize that it is not only aesthetic problem, shortness of breath after entering the 3rd floor, and shame on the beach.
This is particularly worrying, because if left untreated, overweight leads to many serious diseases like:
- type 2 diabetes,
- malignant tumors,
- hypertension and many others that do not allow to live normally.
You are aware that something needs to change, that you need to correct something, but on the other hand, it is very difficult to reach the goal? Consider, therefore, whether your health, safety and comfort are worth a piece of cake, ice cream on a stick, or pizza?
I assure you that is it not! Every day I read letters from people who, after years of struggle with their weaknesses found a way and won!
You also can do this, and I guarantee you that you will enjoy every lost kilogram much more than a piece of cheesecake. Take action and do not give up until you find that you are happy with your appearance.
Often, in moments of weakness we are giving up the chance to achieve the goal. Then excuses begin: "because a friend had a yo-yo effect", "cousin and friend on a diet is not losing any weight", "someone was tired all the time" … Then it's easy to forget about the diet and indulge in pleasure. If you will stumble on the way to the finish line that does not mean that you end up running! This is the moment when it still the time to bite the bullet and fight on!
Healthy kitchen can be not only very tasty but also easy , and morning training bring you much more fun than breakfast in bed and watching your favorite series … Healthy and rational diet is not easy and requires patience, and if you do not know how to choose a diet and physical activity lifestyle just trust the experts, we are here for you!
I love challenges and I will be happy to prove that you can win with extra weight and you will love the new you! ! We are pleased to choose for you the menu and exercise, I will be there for you when you will go shopping and to measure lost centimeters, and also i will allow you consultations with nutritionists without leaving home just by using an application online – DIET BY ANN!
Check it out and start your journey DIET BY ANN APPLICATION- healthy plan by ann
Together with you i will run towards finish line, and to honor the lost weight instead of cake and coffee I will take you for a morning run!

Okay, in the interest of full disclosure, this is not my own invention- I got it from the glorious Moosewood Cookbook, but it's too good not to share.
- Yield
- 1 pie 6 slices
- 1 unbaked 9" pie shell- 4 large eggs- 3/4 c REAL maple syrup- 1/4 tsp lemon juice- dash cinnamon- 1/4 c melted butter- 1/2 tsp vanilla- 1/2 tsp salt- 2 c walnut pieces
- Preheat oven to 375. Beat together all ingredients, except walnuts, until smooth. spread walnuts in crust, pour batter over nuts, bake 30 minutes or until firm. Great hot with a good French vanilla ice cream. This is simple but incredibly good, and pecans make an excellent substitution.

Discussion in 'Odds & Ends' started by jamesblakefan#1, Mar 22, 2010.
First picture of Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor.
Imitation game: Very good
Clockwork Orange
I just watched the famous documentary film Caddyshack
Diving Bell and Butterfly (2007) - shattering.
It follows is coming off limited release this Friday. Meaning I am going to see This Tuesday. The cinema has reduced prices on Tuesdays. When I worked at the cinemas we used to call it " tight wad Tuesday"
Elysium. .
Rounders (1998)
All That Jazz(1979).
House of Games (1987) - David Mamet's debut. Enjoyed.
Caddyshack is fantastic. Got quite a few spare copies on DVD & even VHS version.
I do see some of Luthor's likeness in him based on this picture. Though, I must admit, I'm a bit skeptical he can play the role well. I think he can play an imposing business man, similar to The Social Network.
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (2003)
I fail to understand why does it have such low rating on IMDB (6,4). I'd give it at least 7,5.
Thor (2011) first time I watch it, typical hollywood blockbuster nothing great to expect
yes this is spectacular bla bla but ill forget about this movie tomorrow
A Double Life (1947) - d by George Cukor.
Blood Simple (1984)
Watched a Dutch flick called Claustrophobia
How was it ?
I recently got it, and it's on my long list.
I watched Interstellar again on a cruise ship with nothing else to do, and I liked it much better the second time. Maybe watching it with a bunch of senior citizens lent itself to patience, but I liked it.
Searching for Sugar Man - "Two South Africans set out to discover what happened to their unlikely musical hero, the mysterious 1970s rock 'n' roller, Rodriguez."
A documentary style movie. I thought I wouldn't enjoy it, but it was really intriguing. I recommend it.
Also watched The Seven Psychopaths. "A struggling screenwriter inadvertently becomes entangled in the Los Angeles criminal underworld after his oddball friends kidnap a gangster's beloved Shih Tzu."
Very funny and some wonderful acting in this movie. My man Sam Rockwell, Colin Farrel, Christopher Walken, and Woody Harrelson.
Anybody seen the "Backcountry: with the man eating BEAR ?
The Heiress (1949) - Olivia De Havilland, Montgomery Clift
Ouch, i got it a while back and have been forgetting to see it.
I loved that movie,one of my favourites of the last few years.
The Purple Rose Of Cairo(1985). Enjoyed it.
Mildred Pierce (1945) - Joan Crawford won an oscar for Best Actress here.
How do you "get" it? Do you rely entirely on pirated copies even for the more obscure movies?
Life of Crime.
Set in the 70's. Tennis is one of the themes. One scene has a T 2000 lying on the court next to a white tennis ball.
Maybe you were watching "Brokeback Country: with men eating bears".
Have you watched McDonough's short film Six Shooter?
Man, I need to see that. It's been on my list since forever.
Have you seen Calvary?
It's not bad. Im a huge fan of the Coen Bros and I'd rate it towards the bottom of their films. All their films are incredible though, so it's not exactly an insult.
Finally saw Whiplash. Loved it. It makes more sense to me since I was a hyper focused musician when I was growing up just like the main character. The funny thing to me is that teachers like that one are the best guys you can have in music, even though they are very hard to deal with.
Just loved how well they captured the jazz vibe, and showed how much work it takes to be great at it. Really awesome film.
No, gees I didn't even bother looking if he did anything after Psychopaths yet....Thank you, I will watch that
Gleeson alone is a legit enough reason for me to watch a movie. Even if it's the worst he will make it worth it somehow.
The Fifth Estate, the film about Wikileaks/Julian Assange.
While it's a terrible film all-round the story of Wikileaks is fascinating. Assange's work, for all his foibles, will eventually be regarded as some of the most important in the shaping of global affairs and the way governments operate.
No, but I'll check it out.
Broadcast News(1987). It was OK,but it was like a watered down version of Network
Its a really good movie, at least I enjoyed it.
I download torrents for everything I watch.
The theatre experience in Delhi is really bad on many counts. They charge exorbitant rates to show you a movie that has been chopped randomly in order to fit in several shows. Most of the seats are close to the screen or to the extreme right or left since the theatres are often broad rather than long. Harrowing for the neck.
So how they can charge well over 500 rupees for such a bad experience beats me.
Thanks. That was great! Very nice writing.
Good to know you enjoyed it. I liked this the most of his work because it's more "Irish", plus it was the first ever work of him I have seen 11 years ago. Did you get the Bronski Beat reference?
I will watch Calvary soon
PS Just realized its a different director for Calvary..... Will check it out still
Gravity. Most overrated movie of the year.
Rewatched Casablanca the other day, for old times sake, with my mother. Last time saw it with both parents a couple years back.
Saw Breathless (Godard) a few days back.
It is always a choice whether to use italics or quotation marks for film titles. My understanding is that the formal standard is italics, which is used in literature. Newspapers and magazines tend to use quotation marks. I will use the Sentinel standard for this post.
Casablanca is an amazing film, especially considering it was originally made as a "B" movie. Breathless is largely known a the innovator of the jump cut.
When I watch the film, I wonder if Godard just didn't get the film coverage he needed, and needed to hack it together in an innovative way. Later, film critics attributed a variety of cerebral and cinematic motives to his methods, which may have been a happenstance of chance and circumstance.
It would be amusing if this were the case. I met J.P. Gorin a few times in the early 1990s, a man credited with ruining Godard's career. Godard became very political and didactic in the 1970s.
On topic: I watched Vertigo on DVD recently, which I have seen many times and is my favourite Hitchcock film. I use to get many, many DVDs from a Russian friend in the 2000s, and now have 7,000+ DVDs languishing in my collection. Most are European, Asian, or American "classics."
A couple years back when i was collecting information about movies from wikipedia, the movie names were in italics. That is why is started putting them in italics here.
It helps the reader figure out the movie name from the rest of the text, and may also help someone searching the web, who knows ?
It absolutely helps. I guess I will use an apostrophe either end but must admit, when typing from a phone I'm generally too lazy to do it.
Nb- I love your eclectic choices, especially those from Hollywood's Golden Age.
Separate names with a comma.

The teas that I selected were Pekoe Sip House Sessa Estate Black Tea and Jalam Teas Bada Unfermented 2013. Serving tea for large groups can be a challenge but this set up seemed to work well. I brewed the Assam in my testubin because it fairly large and keeps the tea hot for some time. This tea was a bit more familiar for everyone so it was the popular choice. I broke out my travel gongfu set to brew the puerh. A few people found it too strong but there were a lot of folks who were surprised at how much they enjoyed it. My Breville One-Touch Tea Maker was a bit of a pain to lug into the city but it was worth having on hand.
I loved getting to share my love of the leaf with so many new faces. It was also great to hear a bit more about Mario's travels in India and other tea destinations. It is my goal to visit a tea producing country in 2016 so I'm sure that I'll be turning to him soon for his expert advice.
|Thanks for asking me to join in on the fun, Mario!

Ohio Muslim Inmates Sue Over Meal Preparation
by Andrew Welsh-Huggins
A death row inmate says the Ohio prison system is denying him meals prepared according to Islamic law -- known as halal -- while at the same time providing kosher meals to Jewish prisoners, according to a federal lawsuit that alleges a civil rights violation.
Condemned inmate Abdul Awkal says the prison system's failure to provide the halal meals is a restraint on his religious freedoms.
Awkal, joined by a second inmate not on death row, says the vegetarian and non-pork options offered by the Department of Rehabilitation and Correction aren't good enough. The inmates say the food must be prepared in specific fashion, such as ensuring that an animal is butchered by slitting its throat and draining its blood, to conform with Islamic beliefs.

Newport Beach Mary Joan Morris was visiting her ill father at a veterans hospital the day Pearl Harbor was attacked.
"I've never seen so many grown men cry. There were so many men shedding tears," the white-haired, petite Newport Beach resident said. "They always thought World War I was the end of all wars. It was really a very sad day."
Morris – who had two brothers in the service – was studying to be a nurse and decided to join the Army.
She was joined Thursday by eight other World War II veterans aboard the Tall Ship Lynx in Newport Beach, where they sailed out to sea for a memorial service for those who died the day Pearl Harbor was bombed.
It was a chance for the group of eightysomethings to get together and share war stories – some of which prompted tears as the ship left Newport Harbor. Two blank cannon shots were fired, filling the vessel with smoke. A wreath was tossed into the ocean, and those who served saluted as a flag was lowered.
The bombing at Pearl Harbor was one of the reasons H.M. Davidson joined the military.
"Serving my country is one of the most important things I've done in my life," said Davidson, wearing his medals, including the Purple Heart and Prisoner of War.
Newport Beach resident Donald Avery, 84, was stationed at Pearl Harbor, but transferred to Iceland about six months before the attack.
"We couldn't believe it took place. We thought Pearl Harbor was a safe place," he said. "I will always remember Dec. 7, and that's why I'm here today."

Raindrop therapy is regarded as a kind of aromatherapy which makes good use of the therapeutic advantages of herbs in their extracted form together with the therapeutic massage therapy. The strategy of using essential oils is an ancient outdated practice of the Egyptians many centuries ago.
One of my favorite scenes from the film is when Stelios (played by actor Michael Faasbender ) comes head to head with another Persian messenger throughout one of the put up-battle scenes wherein he states that all the Spartans are doomed – that the Persian Military/Empire was so strong and so ample by way of the number of soldiers that in the event that they were to fireplace their arrows, they are going to blot out the sun!
Hormones are molecules produced in the neuroendocrine system, which includes the adrenal glands, testes, ovaries, thyroid, pituitary and pineal gland. As the physique ages, these glands produce much less hormones. Additionally, the particular hormone receptor sites in the cells change and grow to be much less sensitive and more resistant to hormone stimulation, resulting in a decrease in cellular function, cellular repair, protein synthesis and cell copy. This leads to decline of physical and mental capabilities. Lack of power, vitality, power, physique and well being is the outcome.
And one of many best challenges I confronted was that feeling of isolation. I desperately ached to listen to someone say that I wasn't a damaged individual and I wasn't alone. By way of every part, I had no clue what number of vivid, loving, superb girls (and boys) were going by means of the same problems as me, on varying levels. I wasn't some unusual messed up soul, but a normal one.
What scientists are starting to grasp from Quantum Physics is that all things have a frequency. Take into consideration that. Even toxins have a frequency that impacts the human body. So as our cells accumulate this toxic information from the air we breathe, the meals we eat, and from the water we drink we start to lose reception. We lose the data flow that travels from cell to cell in our physique.

Toyota Solara Convertible Demise
Is the demise of the Solara around the corner, two local SW Florida Dealers have almost no stock of SLE's and are evasive about when more due in. These convertibles must be the bread and butter for Florida anyone any ideas.
When/if you get a response, can you please let me know. I live in Oregon and the dealerships here are also being evasive. I called the Toyota Headquarters Customer Service area and was told just this morning (6-27-07) that the Customer Service reps were not being given that information and they have been asked the same question several times. Anyway, I also am interested in what anyone else finds out.
Come on Edmunds I thought you may be in the know. Whats going on at Toyota??
gulfrider Posts: 6See my post re: the '08s are on the way. They'll start showing up mid to late July at dealers.
passatowner Posts: 16The convertibles and coupes are all on the Toyota.com website (SE, Sport and SLE).
luvume Posts: 4does anyone know how to reset the maintenance warning light? i just had my oil changed and the shop didn't do it for me
I took my car into the Toyota shop and they said to press the button and hold it down for at least three (3) to five (5) seconds. I believe the car also needed to be turned on while holding down the button.
Does anyone know if there is going to be an 09? I am looking to find out if it is worth waiting till next year to see a possible hard top version of the Solara or even if it will continue to exist beyond 2008?
Any input will be appreciated!
meegwell Posts: 67If you don't get a definitive answer on this forum why not put your thoughts before Toyota?
Who knows, maybe they even monitor forums like this to see where their devotees heads are at.
Thanks, meegwell - Yes, it's a thought. But there have been too many teasers on other possible models (there may or may not be a supra, there will be a hybrid 2+2, etc...) to believe that Solara will be either revamped or continued beyond 2008...
There is no "official" word from Toyota that the Solara is being discontinued, however being that insiders (plant workers) have noted the plant will no longer be making them VERY soon is a safe bet it will be. So I would probably forget about future thoughts on a 2010 let alone a 2009. This is the same behavior Toyota exhibited with the Celica discontinuation. An unofficial Toyota spokesperson was quoted as saying a new crossover vehicle will replace the Solara (how a crossover is labeled as a replacement for a coupe is beyond me). The rest is just plain rumor or wishful thinking, there isn't a shred of evidence Toyota is bringing the Supra back soon or Toyota is going to just surprise everybody with a redesign in 2009.
Thanks for the info, blkbob. Yes, sounds like this is it for the Solara. I am having second thoughts getting one, considering I will also have to sacrifice my S2000 to get a Solara.
Thanks again.
congaboy Posts: 3I heard yesterday that there will not be a 2009 Solara. I was told that the Celica is being brought back. I suspect that the water leaks and rattles that are apparently very common in the convertibles do not meet Toyota's standard for quality and as such they are discontinuing this model.
My best guess for discontinuing the Solara is two fold--1) two doors vehicles just don't appeal to families who want a single car and 2) any update to the Solara would probably be cannibalizing into Scion and Lexus markets. That being said, I don't see any two door Supras, Celicas, MR2s, etc. being reborn on the Toyota badge, maybe Scion but not Toyota. And no way are any of those rebirths happening by 2009, everything for that near future will be just a re-update of current models. Even hybrid Hummers, Tahoes, etc. being sold this December took 2 years to hit the production floor from the drawing board just for an engine change (way too fast for GM to be shelling out a new technology they barely researched--my advice: wait for their third model year .)
In the end I purchased a new 07 Solara SLE for $29k. The vehicle has done almost 4000 faultless miles. It has been out in Florida thunderstorms and not a drop of water inside. My wife gets 29mpg and we are both happy with the car, it seats four in reasonable comfort gets our luggage in the trunk and does everything we require. If anything Toyota should supply mats with holes that fit the stud holes and caps for the screw holes to cover the trim on the cills. 9/10 from me.
I change my own oil on my 2004 Toyota Solara Convertible. To reset the light, with the engine off and key in off position, and with odometer in the "odometer setting" (NOT trip A or trip , press and hold the reset putton. Hold the button in, and turn the key to on, without starting the car. You should see a series of dashes which will slowly disppear then possibly read all zeros. Once they show zeros, release the button. Your maintenance light show remain off until next time she needs fresh oil.
On a different note than my last post, we have had our Solara for about a year. We found one used, a 2004 SLE in practically mint condition, albiet high mileage for the year (it had 48,000 when purchased at an age of almost 3 if you consider 2008s are almost out). We paid just under $19K for it. We have put 24,000 miles on the car in one year. I drive it to Tucson 3 to 4 times per month and we have taken it on numerous drives to Northern Arizona and Southern California. I change the oil religiously and use only Castrol. Side Note: Toyota engines do NOT do well without Anti-sludge oil. Castrol is an anti-sludge oil, and I recommend NO other oil. Just my opinion. I rotate the tires myself, have flushed and filled the Transmission myself according to the Haynes manual, and take care of the engine. I recently changed the brake pads because the original pads developed a squeal. The brake pads were beyond easy to change. Very nice design when it comes to switching pads on the four wheel discs on this car. The top did "drip" once.... when it really really poured on us. Just a little bit, right in the first bend joint, about a foot or so behind the windsheild. I can live with that. The trunk is huge, as convertibles go. And the high trunk lid really allows you to stack stuff up high. If Toyota stops production on this, that is fine. I am just happy I got one. It is my second Solara. My first was a 2000, hard top, with the four cylinder engine and manual tranny. Not fast, but comfortable and fun to drive. I love this car. After I wash it, I sit and look at it. Then look some more.
My 2006 convertible is leased, so I will have to turn it in in May 2009. Except for the black exterior ( a horrid paint job), I would buy it. It is a wonderful car in all aspects. So I'm concerned about how I'm going to replace it. There's no other convertible on the market that is as beautiful, as reliable or as affordable. (Last week I saw a beautiful convertible drive by as I was exiting my driveway. I followed it, thinking "now that's an elegant car". When I caught up to it, I learned it was an Aston Martin. The price checked out to be between $200-265,000. Well....)
Anyone hear anything? The folks at the dealership don't know or are not talking.
I heard that it is being discontinued for 2009. Get a 2008. My 2006 is super!
Not going to be any 2009's. They ARE discontinuing it. I am on my second one and am very disappointed. Don't know if there will be any other convertibles oferred by Toyota but I heard rumours that the Celica is coming back. That's a much smaller car though.
gregdane Posts: 3We just purchased a 2008 SLE and love it- BUT, no matter how careful I am I can't seem to keep from chipping the edge of the driver's side door whenever I touch something with it- I took it to the dealer we purchased it from and they were little help other than to rub some type of polish along the edge that seemed to take most of the scarring away- So, I asked about a plastic door edge protector and was told Toyota doesn't make one- anyone have any other ideas?
I just found out that unless I bought the maintainence package from my dealer there is no roadside assistance available from Toyota for my 2008 Solara Convertible (and I guess any other of Toyota's models either!!). That info blew me away as every new car I have owned in the past 10 years always came with a roadside assistance program.I can't remember when I have used it on any other of my cars but it was nice knowing that I could if I had a problem.
moms_max Posts: 62That's great news! Hopefully, any existing 'issues' won't get swept under the rug under the assumption that the car has faded away - and mechanics will try to fix things, since the model will be around for awhile longer.
Is Toyota going to continue the Solara Convertible in 2009, and leave the Coupe in the dust ?
I stumbled on some articles today that stated that Toyota was going to continue with the Solara Convertible for 2 more years, but discontinue the Coupe.
I have lost many hour of sleep over this, since I LOVE my Solara and am ready to buy new one. I almost bought the 2008 last year, but held off because I was hoping the 2009 model year would bring us a hardtop-convertible. I guess not.
One of the articles that discussed this was in the Boston Herald dated August 12.
I've got 110,000 trouble-free, happy miles on my 2003 SLE V6. I've done nothing but regular maintenance on the car - oil/tranny fluid changes, fuel/air/fuel filters, pcv, hoses, timing belt, tires, plugs. Really all just basic stuff and I did most of it myself.
The most expensive maintenance item was probably when I did the timing belt and water pump.
I've gotten so much pleasure out of this vehicle, I am very hard pressed to replace it with anything else.
I'm thinking about the BMW 3 series. I'm thinking about the Honda Accord coupe. I'm thinking about the Lexus SC. I'm thinking about the Audi 6. I'm thinking about the Pontiac G6. I'm thinking about all of those vehicles, buy yet I keep coming back to the Solara. I find some reason to rule out any of those others.
And now that I'm hearing whispers of the Solara possibly NOT being discontinued, or a 2010 coupe coming back, I get cold feet and think that perhaps I should wait it out. I'd hate to spend the bucks and get accustomed to another vehicle now, and then find out 11 months from now that Toyota came back with the Solara coupe. Especially if it was a hardtop-convertible !
Your thinking too much.
The Solara - your Solara- has brought you much satisfaction and joy. What more can you ask of a vehicle. Read the reviews of all the new hardtop convertibles and you will really appreciate the quietness the efficiency and the availability of a trunk, in a priced right vehicle, that the hardtops don't have. They won't ride better, may out perform the Solara but really how much more power do you need . I'm constantly being surprised by the power of the 3.3 in my 08 SLE convertible.
Anyone heard anything else on the 2009 Convertible?
There won't be one! Grab a 2008 if you want a new one
Just received the following message directly from Toyota:
Thank you for contacting Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A.
We appreciate the opportunity to respond to your inquiry.
We are happy to announced that production of the Camry Solara convertible will continue for the 2009 model year. Unfortunately, we do not have information available on the 2010 model year.

Don't fight for Buhari or Goodluck Jonathan over 2015 Election / Nigerians scared as 3 dead men make Buhari's board appointments / Full list of the elected governors in Nigeria 2015-2019 (Last Election) /
Why Jonathan could have annulled 2015 election- Don by Everest(m) : 6:30 pm On Dec 29, 2016
Professor Nkem Onyekpe, a Professor of History and Strategic Studies at the University of Lagos, UNILAG, Akoka, has advanced reasons former President Goodluck Jonathan could have questioned and even annulled the presidential election held on March 28, 2015.
Onyekpe categorically argued that as a then sitting president of Nigeria, Jonathan had no fewer than five valid grounds upon which he could have predicted an objection to the processes and outcomes of the election, which both local and international communities, described as a major test to the country's fledgling democracy.
Jonathan casting his vote at the 2015 Presidential election
He, however, extolled Jonathan for accepting the results of the election and also placed a telephone call across to congratulate his major rival, General Muhammadu Buhari.
In a-47 page lecture entitled, "The Anioma Nation and Democratic Consolidation in Delta State," Onyekpe predicated his first argument on the suspicious creation of more polling centres in the northern part of the country without a commensurate establishment of such additional centres in the southern divide of the country.
He maintained that when it was clear that voter's cards were not available for many registered voters in the strongholds of Jonathan in the South South and South East geopolitical zones and "when the card reader severally rejected him, his wife and his mother, the ex-president could have taken actions that would have jeopardized the electoral process."
Onyekpe, who spoke at Ejeme-Aniogor, Aniocha South Local Government Area of Delta State, during the fourth biennial public lecture/grand civic reception in honour of Governor Ifeanyi Okowa, averred that Jonathan could have sounded the alarm when it became "obvious that while the 'educationally backward' or 'less developed' states of the North did not have or had only few voided votes, the 'educational highly developed' states of the South had many voided votes."
Onyekpe insisted that Jonathan could have towed the ignoble path of annulling the 2015 presidential polls, "when his supporters cried foul at the management of the presidential election by the electoral body, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC)" and other agencies involved in the contest.
The don said Jonathan was not an opportunist and, therefore, refused to explore the advantage of his incumbency to the detriment of the entire country.
"He did not tear his voter's card! Instead, he pleaded with the entire nation for understanding and cooperation with the INEC. He avoided the Machiavellian path. He chose, instead, the path of peace and honour.
"In good conscience, he listened to the inner voice of reason, wisdom, and courage, and conceded victory to his major rival, General Muhammadu Buhari, and congratulated him well before the conclusion of the election.
"He could not as a president affords to preside over the violent dismemberment of the Nigerian nation as 'dog and baboon' soak in blood. It must be emphasized that within the limit of our knowledge, this singular action of Goodluck Jonathan as President of Nigeria and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the nation, was hitherto unprecedented in world modern history".
He, however, called on leaders in the country to "imbibe the exemplary transcendental pacificist spirit and attitude of Goodluck Jonathan," adding that "Jonathan's action should serve as a timely lesson for all leaders."

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)
Franklin Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine – PRP Therapy
What's new?
It's a common southern greeting and at Franklin Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine a lot is new. The newest of the new is that we now offer PRP to our patients. PRP stands for platelet rich plasma. Platelets are cells in our blood that perform a number of functions, but most importantly they help to clot blood when we're injured and bleeding. Once the platelets begin to clot, they orchestrate a series of miracles which make up the healing response. They do this by releasing growth factors which signal to the body that it's time to perform its next step in the healing cascade.
For the last year and a half our staff and patients have witnessed the healing power of platelets. Through our PRP procedures we have been able to significantly alleviate arthritis pain when all other options failed, we've seen athletes return to their sport with amazing turn around times following an injury, and we've had week-end warriors completely resolve their bursitis and tendonitis. PRP is truly a miraculous procedure and we're very proud to offer it!
A PRP procedure is done in our office and it typically takes about 15 minutes. We draw a small amount of blood from a vein and then process that blood to separate the platelets and plasma from the red and white blood cells. The platelet rich plasma is then injected into the affected area which catalyzes the healing process. The platelets begin to work immediately and the results are often appreciated in a few weeks and sometimes even a few days.
Research is ongoing and we expect that platelet rich plasma will be a great option for our patients and an expanding list of orthopedic conditions.
Franklin Orthopaedics is staffed to provide quick and easy access to our team. If you would like to explore this exciting new option of platelet rich plasma, we would be honored to see you in consultation. You can reach us at 615-771-1116. We hope you don't mind speaking to a real person, we don't believe in answering machines and voicemail!

As a Professional Men's Dating Coach and Interpersonal Communications Skills Advisor, I receive many questions from men who have read my eBooks and/or paperbacks, men who have listened to my audiobooks and my weekly talk radio podcast program, and men who have paid me for an Email consultation, a Skype or Telephone consultation, or a One-on-One / Face-to-Face Dating Coaching session.
One of the questions I receive the most frequently is usually along the lines of, "Alan, what does it really mean to be an 'Alpha' male? How do you define that? Is 'Alphaness' based on how handsome a man is? How intelligent he is? How good his fighting and self-defense skills are? How good his sexual prowess is? How demanding and dominant he is with women? What? I hear this term all of the time and I am very confused on what it really means for a man to be 'Alpha' versus 'Beta'. Please help me better understand!"
There are Different Types of Alpha Males in Society
To be 'Alpha' can mean different things depending on what aspect of a man's life you're referring to. For example, in American politics, the President of the United States is the 'Alpha' of political leaders, which means his decision-making carries more weight and influence than any other politician in this country.
With American football, the quarterback is usually the 'Alpha' of the offensive squad, and the middle linebacker is many times the 'Alpha' of the defensive squad. Men who perform in these two positions are usually viewed by their teammates as the 'leaders' of each squad.
In the business world, the CEO, Owner, or President of a company is going to be the 'Alpha' of that company or corporation. His business decisions will carry more weight and influence than anyone else associated with that particular company.
Among mixed martial artists and professional boxers, the man with the best fighting skills who is able to win multiple championship bouts in his weight class is going to be perceived as the 'Alpha' male among his loyal fans and fighting competitors.
In the world of street gangs, organized crime, and professional hit men, the man who is considered to be the most ruthless and merciless killer among his colleagues and peers is going to be viewed as the 'Alpha' male.
Generally speaking, an 'Alpha' male is one who – at maximum – loves to be a dominant 'dictator' (i.e., what some would refer to as a 'control freak') in his professional and personal relationships with others. At minimum, an Alpha male is one who is looked upon to lead others and make the final decision for important matters and issues in his professional and personal relationships with others.
Conversely, a 'Beta' male is one who not only does not have a problem following another person's lead, but more often than not, he would prefer to be more of a 'follower' than a 'leader.' Beta males usually defer – either enthusiastically or reluctantly – to the leadership and dominance of an Alpha male.
Concentrating specifically on the arena of dating and romantic or sexual relationships, an Alpha male would be a man who seeks to be the leader and/or dominant partner and final decision-maker in his relationships with women, and expects for all of his female companions to fulfill his demands and requests, and exhibit the highest degree of respect and deference to him either sexually, non-sexually, or both.
A Man's Alpha Attributes and Traits vs. A Man's Beta Attributes and Traits
Many men believe that the more physically attractive a man is, the more 'Alpha' he is. Similarly, some men believe that the more muscular a man is and/or the more well-endowed his penis is, the more 'Alpha' he is. Other men believe a man's level of intelligence and education is what validates a man's 'Alphaness.' Still, even others believe a man's 'Alpha' status is based on his degree of career success or his level of wealth and fame.
For the purposes of my books and the advice I give to men, here is what I would list as the Top 12 'Alpha' attributes and traits and the Top 12 'Beta' attributes and traits:
General Alpha Male Attributes and Traits
- Confident and self-assured in his speech and actions
(i.e., doesn't hesitate to take action toward the achievement of his goals and the accomplishment of his objectives, and usually expects a positive outcome and desirable results from his actions and behavior)
- Above-average to exceptionally high degree of self-esteem
(i.e., thinks very highly of himself and what he has to offer the world)
- Strong desire to lead others in his professional and personal relationships
(i.e., wants to be the final decision-maker for the most important issues facing a business relationship, platonic friendship, or romantic / sexual relationship)
- Strong desire to erotically dominate sex partners
(i.e., wants to totally dictate when sex happens, how frequently it happens, what sexual positions will be used, what their partner will do to please them and satisfy them, etc.)
- Totally unfazed by and generally indifferent in response to other people's subjective criticisms or insults of himself and his behavior
(i.e., could care less about the opinions and expectations of others)
- An extremely low desire to compromise with others regarding his wants, needs, demands, and requests
(i.e., he wants people to acquiesce to what he wants them to do rather than vice versa)
- Does not allow other people to treat him in any sort of disrespectful and/or undesirable manner more than once, and definitely not more than twice
(i.e., does not allow other people to bully him or exhibit behavior that is blatantly rude to him without that person facing some sort of repercussions or consequences)
- Possesses a very boastful and/or extremely competitive ego
(i.e., hates for rivals and adversaries to receive more attention, respect, and/or public recognition than himself)
- Tends to express his thoughts and opinions in a blunt, outspoken manner
(regardless of if he leaves other people's egos bruised or feelings hurt)
- Generally tends to lean more heavily toward promiscuous and/or polyamorous sexual tendencies rather than strictly monogamous sexual tendencies
(i.e., tends to be more of a 'player' type and womanizer type rather than a 'faithful husband' or 'faithful boyfriend' type)
- Frowns on conversations and social interactions with others that he deems 'trivial,' 'unproductive,' or a general waste of his time
(i.e., doesn't really care for 'fluff talk' and 'small talk' and social activities that primarily center on simply engaging in entertaining conversations with others)
- Would be willing to fight, and kill if necessary, in order to protect himself, his family, his children, and other loved ones
(i.e., very territorial when it comes to the physical safety of those he cares about)
General Beta Male Attributes and Traits
- Tends to optimistically 'hope for' positive outcomes and desirable results rather than confidently 'expect' them to happen
(i.e., an average to less-than-average degree of personal confidence)
- Possesses a very erratic degree of self-esteem
(i.e., sometimes, he feels good about himself and what he has to offer … and other times, he feels like he is worthless)
- Prefers to allow others to make important decisions and has no problem helping others achieve their goals
(i.e., doesn't mind being a 'follower' rather than a 'leader')
- Enjoys very gentle, emotionally profound, monogamy-oriented sex rather than non-monogamous, no-strings-attached sex that involves no real emotional connection
(i.e., would much prefer to be a woman's ONLY male lover as opposed to her having multiple male lovers)
- Is known to be very 'thin-skinned' and emotionally and/or egotistically sensitive in response to other people criticizing him or insulting him
(i.e., possesses a very fragile, insecure ego)
- Can be very agreeable, compromising, empathetic, and even doesn't have a problem being subservient and acquiescent to others
(i.e., doesn't like 'verbal confrontations' with others, and is somewhat intimidated by men who he perceives as more masculine than him and/or more dominant than him)
- Many times, will allow others to talk to him and/or treat him in a manner that is condescending, disrespectful, blatantly rude, or just downright mean-spirited
(i.e., doesn't have enough strength of backbone to always stand up for himself)
- Usually looks to fawn over others and play up to their egos
(i.e., very flattering toward others and their appealing qualities)
- Tends to be extremely careful and cautious with his speech and rarely criticizes or insults people directly to their face
(i.e., always looks to converse with others in a very respectful and even deferential manner)
- Generally tends to be very accommodating, forgiving, lenient, and financially generous with women
(i.e., tends to place women on 'pedestals,' and genuinely cares about their financial well-being)
- Loves to be very 'talkative' and social with other members of his own gender as well as women
(i.e., loves to share entertaining anecdotes and biographical stories and does not mind accumulating a high number of purely platonic female friends)
- Very much looks to avoid physical confrontations (e.g., fisticuffs fighting) with others and generally attempts to avoid engaging in any type of gun violence or other violence with others that involves weaponry
(i.e., leans toward being a non-aggressive pacifist and hates people who are violent criminals and/or bullies)
The FOUR Archetypes of Hetorosexual Men
In Chapter 7 of the audiobook version of Mode One: Let the Women Know What You're REALLY Thinking, I offer descriptions of what I feel are the four general types of (heterosexual) men as it relates to how they go about verbally communicating with women and generally socializing with women with the objective of securing romantic or strictly sexual companionship with them. My four categories are:
TOTAL Alpha male (i.e., a man who possesses no less than 11 of the 12 general 'Alpha' male attributes and traits)
An Alpha male with a few Beta traits (i.e., a man who possesses no less than 7 of the 12 general 'Alpha' male attributes and traits)
A Beta male with a few Alpha traits (i.e., a man who possesses no less than 7 of the 12 general 'Beta' male attributes and traits)
TOTAL Beta male (i.e., a man who possesses no less than 11 of the 12 general 'Beta' male attributes and traits)
You can click on the following categories below to read about each archetype in more detail (paid website subscribers only)

AN address within the zone of one of Melbourne's top state secondary schools adds almost $165,000 to a home's price tag, research shows.
The RMIT study found parents stretched their budgets by an average $164,426 to buy a home in the Balwyn High School zone, while homebuyers in the Camberwell High catchment area paid an average $160,000 extra.
Enrolments at these and other top state secondary schools are restricted to permanent residents within a set boundary.
The report found parents had a "borderline obsession" to get their children into the best schools.
Real estate agents and industry experts have long believed access to good state schools pushes up house prices but there has been little research until now to measure the impact in dollar terms.
Report co-authors and property valuers James McGrath and Oliver Evans predicted the influence of school zones would only increase.
"With private school fees increasing, better performing public schools are going to come into the fold even more," Mr McGrath, of WBP Property Group, said.
"Families are going to look for ways to get their children a better education without spending quite as much money."
While their research focused on just two schools, the valuers said it was a good model for understanding the effect other leading schools had on their local property markets.
Harcourts Judd White Glen Waverley director Dexter Prack said homes in the Glen Waverley Secondary College zone often sold for $200,000 to $300,000 more than similar homes not in the zone.
But the premium was seen as a good investment when compared with the cost of a private school education, especially when there were two or three children in a family.
"That's $150,000 per child or $450,000 for three over the course of their secondary education," Mr Prack said.
"So they're prepared to pay the $200,000 or $300,000 premium to buy within the school zone in the best part of Glen Waverley."
Buxton Bentleigh director Craig Williamson said getting into the McKinnon Secondary College zone was a higher priority than house and block size for many buyers - and they paid about 12.5 per cent more for the privilege.
Fletchers Balwyn North director Jeremy Desmier agreed the Balwyn High School zone was a strong selling point, thanks to the school's highly regarded Chinese language and music programs.
The RMIT study compared sale prices of homes within and outside the Balwyn and Camberwell high school zones during 2012 and 2013.
Sales ranged from $655,000 to $1.75 million for homes in the Balwyn school zone, compared to $628,000 to $1.16 million for homes outside the zone.
Homes in the Camberwell school zone ranged from $770,000 to $2.3 million, while those not in the zone sold for between $641,000 and $1.93 million.

Hey guys!
It's been a little while, but I'm going to kick-start this blog for the billionth time. Watch this space! For now, here's an update from North Rose.
Hey guys,
Just a quick update: the Northside Tattoo fundraiser for Ferank Manseed has been confirmed:
All tattooers will be ready and waiting on the day for walk ins I'm sure, but it's always best to make enquiries before you leave the house so you're not disappointed. You can do that by clicking here to visit the guys' Facebook page.
When you're a tattooer, it's really unlikely (to put it lightly!) that you'll ever have paid sickness leave- you're pretty much self employed, so every day you're not working is a struggle! This is why it's so important that everyone bands together as much as they can when one of us is in need. If you can't make it, or can't afford anything, at least make sure to spread the word, please. Ferank is a really cool guy so it's no surprise how many people want to help and support…

Houston made the playoffs in five of the previous eight seasons, including the last three, but the team has some work to do if it's going to make it to the postseason for the fourth straight campaign. The Rockets sit one game behind the Jazz for the eighth seed in the Western Conference with three games to go.
The franchise certainly had higher expectations than an eighth seed entering the season and early today, reports surfaced that ownership would be seriously evaluating Daryl Morey's job performance. Morey has accepted the blame for the team's disappointing season, but an argument can be made that his moves as a GM are the reason the Rockets had the high expectations to begin with. Morey has been one of the most active front office executives in the league since becoming the GM of the Rockets in 2007. He made the shrewd move to acquire James Harden and he signed Dwight Howard to add a second star to the team.
So here is tonight's question: Should the Rockets move on from Morey and what other changes need to be made in Houston? Let's talk front office, player movement, Dwight Howard and more. Let us know what you think in comments below. We look forward to what you have to say!
