I have in mind an article that is a serious criticism and warning of a certain well-known online site because they do things that are egregious violations of privacy.
I would prefer totally un-related ads on that article. In my corporate greed series, Google picked up on the keywords and placed ads for exactly the things I was writing against! I don't want that to happen; I don't want any person to think I am giving that site "props" or promoting them in any way.
So---if I don't use the name of the site, but make "transparently oblique" references to it, (yes, I know--that's an oxymoron of sorts) and use dodges such as
c r e a t i n g e x t r a s p a c e s between letters in some words, will that keep Google from recognizing what I am talking about, (and thereby place unrelated ads) while still keeping it readable for the audience?
(I'd probably write a short intro paragraph to explain that to readers, so they would not think the piece was full of poor typing errors.)
What say you all?
Use any technique that works for you, maybe you could make a hub about it if you haven't all ready so we could see it...guess Google ad sense will too though..jeepers not sure..
I say give it a shot. It can't hurt, can it? Before, I was ad-less for using poison words in an article and it took me some time to get my related ads back. I had to change the article, even tho I wasn't writing about anything bad. But if you use spaces like that, it may confuse the program enough to not recognize the poison words as words and give you random, unrelated ads. OR, will it raise a red flag to Google that your articles contain letters that don't form words, or regard it as poor content... Geez, that's a hair twister.
Anyone knowledgeable about this?
It is a weird situation. If Google does NOT recognize it, it will not rank in the search engine for traffic, right? Maybe I have been up too long, but that is what jumped out at me upon reading the overall question(s) and the comments shared.
A great point you raise however. I shall follow along and keep up with the responses.
Extra spaces probably won't work, because I know Google disregards spaces in some keywords (for instance, it supposedly sees belly dance and bellydance as pretty much the same).
How about creating a photo containing the name of the site, and uploading that as the first image? You can then refer your readers to the photo and explain why you're not using the name of the site in the text.
Hi, Marisa--
Thanks--and I found that extra spaces didn't work very well anyway, as the capsule tool then disregarded the space between two words entirely and ran them together as one! Grrrrr... Oh, well, I managed to write the entire piece without mentioning the site by name, and without using ad-alert words such as "social networks." ;-)
Also, the < pre > (minus spaces) html tag you're supposed to be able to use doesn't work, either. I went into the html edit screen, inserted those tags where needed to try and keep my formatting, and what came up but a dialog box saying the html needed to be "cleaned up."
Ironically, it listed the allowable tags...among them the very self-same "pre" that I had used! Supposedly allowed, but then ignored, and the "cleanup" resulted in the ugly all-on-one-line "preformatted" style instead of simply maintaining my preferred spacing. I guess that's what the "pre" stands for... instead of "maintain as given," which was my intent.
Oh, well, I'm no programmer, and I'll probably never understand all of that...there aren't enough years left in my life to learn it and still have time to put it to use..
As for using a photo--containing the name--this is the "major biggie," and I'd be fearful of running afoul of copyright issues....
I don't mean an official logo. I mean, write "....... exposed" on a big piece of cardboard and photograph it. With you holding it and making a rude gesture if you like! No copyright issues there, and neither the Googlebot, nor any checker the company might have, would be able to read it.
Oh--hee hee....
It is a serious suggestion - I'd do it in your shoes!
OK--I will make that attempt....thanks for the idea...
I know you can't post a link, but if you post here to let us know when it's done we can go to your profile and find your newest Hub. Curious to see what you have to say!
My guess is that it is this one. http://dzymslizzy.hubpages.com/hub/If-Y … -You-Think
You are quite correct, Pardigm!
How's this for an illustration? Subtle pun...
http://www.flickr.com/photos/massimobar … 185202042/
Or if you want to be more direct:
Neither of these would present copyright issues.
A lot of the ads you see are based on what you have looked at previously.
Good point UW... But in the opening post..
She Denies having any interest in That Issue!!
Perhaps disabling your search history might be worth considering. I believe the instructions to that process can be found under the keyword 'corruption' in a standard Google search!
If this was an evenball question I'd be able to help you...
No, seriously. It's a good question. I don't know the answer.
LOL--I'm mostly odd--short on evenballs, sorry.
This is exactly the sort of fun I have had on Hubpages writing satire. I slam the crap out of stuff and their ads show up on the article. I laugh. HOwever, I can see how what you are trying to do would make it less amusing. (I still laugh that Fiber One bars advertise on my hub talking about how they nearly blew up my as$, or the SEO advice stuff that shows up on my hub bagging on SEO, etc.)
True, Shadesbreath....and your satire is of the winning variety, making such incongruities actually funny indeed.
However, I'm not doing a satirical piece; I'm deadly serious, and I would not find it amusing in the least to find ads for the site I'm slamming....
thanks for your input... ;-) It's always good to hear your take on things.
Just turn off ads.
Oh? Did not know you could turn off ALL ads to an article...I thought some were still shown anyway....
Hmmm..in fact, I just checked, and the box where you used to check "hub can be considered/not considered commercial" is gone. There is no more setting to turn off ads...maybe globally, but not for just one hub at a time...
I think that went away with the HP ad program? Or maybe when I first signed up for AdSense?
I just looked at one, I can still turn off ads. In Edit Hub mode, click OFF the checkmark "this hub may be considered commercial." When you uncheck that box, the drop down next to it then lights up so to speak and you can click "None" and, in theory, that should turn off ads.
That's the thing--I never saw that button--it used to be there, but seems to be gone. (Yes in edit mode.)
Have you tried a replacement word? For example, you might say Social Site A will now be referred to as "Bleep". Maybe choose a word that reflects what ads you would like.
Or, an acronym in place of the company name with one referral to what the acronym stands for.
Like Shades, I thought that turning off the ads in the hub would work. It's odd.... I still have access to that too.
Whenever I make a new hub, that particular box is pre-checked for me, and sometimes I forget to uncheck it before I publish. I didn't really know what it meant, tho, until now.

Chicago has been home to far bigger transactions than the one being discussed between Google and Groupon. But few, if any, have had as much riding on it for the city as this $6 billion deal does.
Groupon, a Chicago company coveted for its ability to mobilize millions of people online to buy local products, offers steep daily discounts to consumers on an array of products and services. If the Google-Groupon deal is completed, Groupon will be one of the country's biggest start-up success stories and one likely to spur a frenzy of new investment in Internet-based companies, including more in sometimes-overlooked Chicago.
For Google, based in Mountain View, Calif., the deal would be its biggest purchase, more than tripling what it paid for YouTube in 2006 and far richer than the $3.1 billion it spent in 2007 for DoubleClick, an online-advertising company.
For Chicago, the deal would represent something bigger than the price tag, which has been the buzz of venture capitalists, technology entrepreneurs and Wall Street investors for several weeks. The deal, tech executives say, could represent a game-changing moment for Chicago's economy — a chance for the city to establish itself as a major tech hub that can grow talent and keep it here.
It is a large enough transaction to make a number of executives rich overnight, in much the same way the online payment company PayPal did when it was bought by eBay for $1.2 billion in 2002. The move attracted a host of angel investors who breathed life into more than 20 other start-ups, enhancing Silicon Valley's reputation as the nation's high-tech center.Continue reading the main story
Analysts say the ability of the Groupon deal to stimulate more high-technology investment in Chicago depends, in part, on whether the new Groupon millionaires — the second tier of managers who could gain big payouts as a result of the deal —will stick around the city and become investors in other local start-ups.
"As it spills down to lots of folks, that's when it becomes powerful," said Anand Sanwal, founder of CB Insights, which tracks high-growth and emerging companies.
But others warn that Chicago has been down this path before, with smaller successful start-ups that have failed to attract the investments needed to build a top-tier tech industry similar to hot spots in California, Texas and, recently, New York. In some instances, executives have left Chicago after a major buyout. After Google's acquisition of Chicago-based FeedBurner in 2007, Dick Costolo, the founder, joined Twitter in San Francisco, and was recently named its chief executive.
"It really depends on what Google does," said Adrian Holovaty, the Chicago founder of online company EveryBlock, which was sold to MSNBC.
Chicago's emerging online industry has been criticized for being splintered and lacking a deep pool of talent, the so-called tech geeks who are the backbone of innovation. City executives hope the Groupon deal will change that.
"It's a huge win, almost any way you look at it," said Matt Moog, a Chicago tech pioneer who is now the president and chief executive of Viewpoints Network, which provides online reviews and allows companies to establish online communities. Moog, whose CoolSavings was one of the city's early Web start-ups, said that, given the size of the deal and likelihood that many of the investors and managers would stay in Chicago, there is little doubt there will be a spillover effect for the city.
"It's validation for the city that you can create, launch, scale and sell a world-class digital company in Chicago," Mr. Moog said. "In another year or two you may see Groupon alumni investing in other start-ups here."
"A lot of people stand to make a lot of money from this, and they are not all going to leave," said Mr. Holovaty, who made sure to keep his company in Chicago.
Indeed, Andrew Mason, the Groupon co-founder and chief executive, and other co-founders like Eric Lefkofsky and Brad Keywell, have publicly talked about the need to reinvest in Chicago start-ups in order to help jump-start the industry here, along with the need for state and city tax help to simulate job creation.
"But probably the No. 1 thing missing in Chicago today is an ego," Mr. Lefkofsky told Fortune magazine in an interview in October. Neither Mr. Lefkofsky nor Mr. Keywell could be reached for comment.
Groupon, which exploded onto the local scene barely two years ago, is this year's tech-industry darling. Starting with fewer than 200 employees, Groupon, which offers those who sign up huge discounts on items like restaurant meals, boat tours and hotel stays, has relied heavily on the viral nature of its business, where friends pass along the daily deals to other friends.
It is that ability to combine businesses and consumers on the local level that has attracted Google, which has had difficulty gaining local advertising market share and establishing a strong foothold in social media. Groupon's business caught fire and its growth has been breathtaking, even though its business model appears easy to replicate. The company, which is headquartered at the old Montgomery Ward catalog warehouse on the Near North Side, now boasts more than 3,000 employees and serves 300 markets. It counts 35 million subscribers and is reportedly profitable.
On Thursday, The New York Times reported that Groupon's revenue prospects are even better than first thought, possibly making the $6 billion price tag a relative bargain. Citing an unnamed source close to Groupon, the company's revenue may top $1 billion a year and its subscriber base tripled over the summer. Previously, analysts had estimated Groupon's revenue in the $500 million range.
Neither Groupon nor Google would comment Thursday on reports of the talks.
What sets Groupon's success apart from other ventures, executives say, are the local forces that came together — academic, governmental (including $28 million in tax increment financing to refurbish the Montgomery Ward space for technology start-ups) and entrepreneurial — to give Groupon and its forerunner, The Point, room to experiment, fail and eventually find a successful model.
"They relied on universities, local talent and engineers," Mr. Moog said. "They were easily able to raise money from both Chicago and West Coast investors."
Even as local entrepreneurs salivate at the prospect of more attention — and potentially more cash — that might be lavished on Chicago start-ups as a result of the Groupon deal, industry observers say the city's tech industry needs to do a better job of coming together, attracting more technical talent, and promoting itself.
Mr. Holovaty said the industry here has been fragmented for many years, but "it's come together more than in the past," he said. "Of course, that's not saying much."
Mr. Holovaty said that, unlike Silicon Valley where executives and developers from other companies know one another and their businesses, he often eats lunch with an executive from the technology scene here who doesn't know other executives.
"It's been more focused on the suits rather than hackers and geeks," he said.
Still, at a time when investors are looking for a return and perhaps are more cautious about financing projects, Chicago may be more attractive. "In Silicon Valley, a lot of people swing for the fences," said Alan Warms, founder and chief executive of Chicago-based Appolicious, which connects consumers to popular iPhone applications and works with companies on mobile strategies.
"People here start off saying they want to create a sustainable business," Mr. Warms said. "If I can create an ongoing business, it leads to a little more sobriety."
An article last Friday about Groupon's influence on the tech industry in Chicago misspelled the surname of the Chicago founder of the online company EveryBlock. He is Adrian Holovaty, not Halovaty.

Whenever we put up information on alternative
treatments that have not been properly/Scientifically tested, we
receive a few angry emails.
Saw palmetto
Saw palmetto oil is an accepted medical treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in New Zealand and in France, Germany, Austria, Italy, Spain, and other European countries.
Typical symptoms of BPH include difficulty starting urination, weak urinary stream, frequent urination, dribbling after urination, and waking up several times at night to urinate. Research suggests that saw palmetto can markedly improve all these symptoms. Benefits require approximately 4 to 6 weeks of treatment to develop. It appears that about two-thirds of men respond reasonably well.
Furthermore, while the prostate tends to continue to grow when left untreated, 1 saw palmetto causes a small but definite shrinkage. 2–4 In other words, it isn't just relieving symptoms, but may actually be retarding prostate enlargement. The drug Proscar does this too (and to even a greater extent than saw palmetto) but other standard medications for BPH have no effect on prostate size.
Research tells us that saw palmetto is equally effective to Proscar, but it has one great advantage: It leaves PSA (prostate-specific antigen) levels unchanged. Cancer raises PSA levels, and lab tests that measure PSA are used to screen for prostate cancer. Because Proscar lowers PSA measurements, its use may have the unintended effect of masking prostate cancer. Saw palmetto won't do this. On the other hand, Proscar has been shown to reduce the need for surgery, unlike saw palmetto or any of the other drugs used for BPH.
Saw palmetto also appears to be equally effective as another class of standard drugs known as alpha blockers, but may cause fewer side effects.
Note: Before self-treating with saw palmetto, be sure to get a proper medical evaluation to rule out prostate cancer.
Saw palmetto is also widely used to treat chronic prostatitis. An open trial that compared saw palmetto to the drug Proscar for the treatment of chronic nonbacterial prostatitis found that while the drug was effective, the herb was not. 5 However, these results do not mean that saw palmetto is ineffective for prostatis. Because this was an open study, researchers and participants knew who was getting saw palmetto and who was getting the drug. If there was any expectation that the drug would be more powerful than the herb, this in itself would be sufficient to skew the results toward that outcome.
Saw palmetto is sometimes recommended as a treatment for hair loss, but there is no evidence as yet that it is effective for this purpose.

Cancer cells hide after Chemotherapy
and Radiation
After the initial doses of radiation and/or chemotherapy, cancer cells start hiding.
" They develop a slime coating, and they become like Stealth bombers, and they can hide from future doses of radiation and chemotherapy. This is why repeated dose of radiation and chemotherapy become less effective".Dr. John Maras, Nu-Gen Educational Library.
" The way to get rid of this "slime coating" is to use large doses of plant and animal enzymes- especially bromelain and pancreatin. This allows an 'access point' for the immune system to attack the cancer cells".....Dr. John Maras, Nu-Gen Educational Library

Virtual Insanity
I stepped in a pile of fire ants today, which is something like stepping in a pile of…well, in a pile of fire, what with the searing little bites, piercing fangs and poisonous venom. In a word, awesome. I was doing some work this weekend at an event where they actually flew in northern grass to please the sponsors – northern grass, as in, grass that doesn't feel like prickly little needles and isn't full of benign-looking piles of sand that turn your feet into flaming pustules of misery. Weirdly, it reminded me of the little things I miss about living somewhere else – things I forgot about that aren't that really important, but are things I miss all the same. I mean, do y'all know what kind of grass we have down here? It's sandy and silty and rough, and, due to the aforementioned fire ants, you can't even dream about rolling around in it, and what then is the point of grass, I say?
The things I miss are shrinking by the day, actually, as I learn to appreciate the situation I'm in, and love the things that are, instead of what isn't. And ah, it doesn't hurt that it was 85 degrees outside today, and that tomorrow, I'm going swimming again. Outside. In February.
Suckers. But I still miss grass. Console yourselves with soft grass, you know, for the five minutes each year that you can actually see it. BAHAHAHAHAHA. I'm mean. But consider this, once again: I'm getting into NASCAR, and if that's not the sign of a declining mind, I'm not sure what is. Did you know we have an entire season coming up? Yes! The Daytona 500 was only the beginning. Red Sox and NASCAR, all at once. A whole season full of fast cars, bizarrely hot men and…I don't know what else, but I guess I'm not ashamed, but still, I am not a person to envy, warm weather or not.
Also, and this is important: I no longer find Howard K. Stern hot. The video with the makeup and the eight-month pregnant Anna Nicole Smith did it for me. No, just no, sexy jawline or not. Although I feel compelled to mention that my strange freak fetish to Adam, who did not recoil in utter revulsion, but instead replied thoughtfully, "Huh. I guess I could see that. He kind of looks like JFK Jr. from certain angles." I'm pretty sure he was trying to make me feel better, but I'm pretending he was serious.
The last thing the Internet needs is this, but American Idol makes me very, very tired. Invariably, someone sings Marvin Gaye, Paula swoons, the fat guy has a hot wife, and it's all just…well, it's all the same, seriously, and I'm not all that excited about continuing to waste my damn time, and yet every Tuesday, I am pulled like a magnet to the television, guided by my friend TiVo. Also, a man attempted to sing "Fever" which made me want to kill myself slowly, and by 'slowly' I mean maybe with Vicodin, which makes Penny very, very happy.
Happy Wednesday!
*Jamiroquai. The only decent performance tonight. What?

Each US Trustee of a trust account must file a FBAR (even if the beneficiary of the trust is not a US Person). If the owner of an account gave someone the power of attorney over the account, both the owner and the attorney-in-fact must file a FBAR (if both are US Taxpayers).
If a trust that holds a foreign financial account provides for a Protector, whose powers include directing distributions if the Protector is a US Person, the Protector must file a FBAR.
If several members of the same family have accounts, the FBAR rules apply to each account holder individually. The IRC §318 attribution rules do not apply to filing the FBAR.
Under the grantor trust rules (IRC §679) any US Person who establishes a foreign trust (which holds the foreign financial account), established by a US Person for any US beneficiary, the US Settlor is responsible for filing a FBAR for the trust accounts (even if the US Settlor of the trust is not a beneficiary, has no authority over the trust or any of the trust accounts). Under US tax rules, he is treated as the owner of the trust (for US income tax purposes) because the trust is deemed a grantor trust which makes him responsible to file the FBAR form.
Financial interest may be present even if there is no signatory authority. If a trust holds an account and the US Taxpayer has a present beneficiary interest in more than 50% of the trust assets, receives more than 50% of the trust assets, or receives more than 50% of the current trust income, he must file a FBAR.
If a trust has 2 or more beneficiaries and none of the beneficiaries has more than a 50% interest in the income of principal, then none of them needs to file a FBAR (although each US Trustee who is a US Taxpayer must file the FBAR). Regarding the rules for a discretionary trust, if a US Taxpayer receives distributions of more than 50% of trust income or principal in any given year, it requires filing the FBAR.

2010 Volkswagen GTI - Consumer Review

Back to Fun Driving
By 2-GTI Guy on
Vehicle2010 Volkswagen GTI 4dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6M)
ReviewTraded in my Audi A3 3.2 Quattro after three years. This GTI is more fun to drive, and is a better mix of great handling and comfortable ride. The exterior styling is good (better than '09), but the interior is what makes the car great. Solid, hi-luxe feel. I got the Dynaudio system (get it..it rocks), the leather (was nice in my MK IV, and nice here), Nav (didn't need it, but it beats the Audi's nav), and the Black Karthoum Wheels (dealership had to order). This car is fast, fun, and feels like I spent a ton more than I did, even with all the options I added. Nice work, VW! Oh, and my mileage is WAY better than with the Audi.
Best Features2.0 turbo, Dynaudio Sound (ROCKS!), iPod interface and touch screen radio work GREAT together, white light info display, dial-controlled sun roof, thick leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio controls, metal sport pedals
Worst FeaturesThe Bluetooth should be full-featured (i.e., voice dial). I shouldn't have to pick up my phone to make a call; it's unsafe and illegal in my area. I wish there was an "auto" setting for the headlights, not just on or off (because I always leave them on). The glovebox is pretty cramped.

What influence does non-parental child care have on psychological, social and cognitive development?
- print Print
- list Cite
Non parental caregivers can serve as powerful role models for children as they develop. Competent caregivers provide not only for the child's physical needs, but also for his or her emotional needs. A caregiver that offers affection, support, and positive communication supports the child's psychological development. A caregiver who neglects these aspects of care may damage the child's psychological well being.
Socially and cognitively, children learn about what is acceptable behavior through observing the adults around them. Thus, non-parental caregivers also contribute to the social understandings of the children under their care.
In addition, caregivers can support the childrens' cognitive development through games, conversation and other developmentally sound interactions.

I had my highschool buds over the other day and months of not seeing each other. After lunch and all that, they came to my place to bake!
We wanted something simple, easy and tasty, so we decided on making just a simple chocolate cake.
I couldnt really find a recipe that satisfies all the ingredients that i have at home, so i decided to wing it by modifying the recipe from a simple vanille butter pound cake.
250g butter (2 sticks)
220g sugar
240g flour
4 eggs
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup of milk (sour cream ,yogurt or buttermilk will make it moist) – about 200ml-250ml
a pinch of salt
First, beat the butter and sugar into the mixer, add eggs one by one and also vanilla.
Then add all your dry ingredients in a bowl.
Mix in the dry ingredients into the butter mixture and alternate with milk.
Place in baking mould after its all combined.
Bake for 35 minutes at 170c or when you poke a toothpick in and it comes out clean.
this cake honestly tastes a little bit like twiggies, it doesnt take too long to make and it came out great 😀
we piped on some cream cheese icing and some chocolate ganache in the middle and it became this sinful monster>>>
Ola here we are with our "creation" haha

Being Emotionally Needy – The Toxic Woman
Are you emotionally needy? Do you need constant reassurance that you are loved and appreciated. In this article we will talk about how to recognize this toxic behavior and put a stop to it before it destroys your relationship.
What is an Emotionally Needy Woman?
It's a woman who looks for someone to constantly fill her need to feel loved, to raise her self esteem and to make her feel secure about the relationship. No matter what her boyfriend or husband does to show her she is loved, it never seems to be enough.
Being emotionally needy comes with traits like, lying to get sympathy, being controlling, and always looking to get attention by causing drama about what he is not doing to satisfy her needs. She may be manipulative with crying to get her way, need him to always call and be with her everyday, and have a need for him to make her the center of his world.
Often, the emotionally needy woman gives no space. When her boyfriend or husband tries to do things on his own, the emotionally needy woman tries to elbow her way into that personal space. When she gets resistance, she turns to trying to make him feel bad, by throwing a "pity party". She may say things like " You just don't want to do things with me, I always want to do things with you" or "I know you just don't want to be with me like I want to be with you". She would even say these things when he spends more time with her than anyone else in his life.
An emotionally needy woman has lost touch with the fact that no one can be responsible for her happiness, self esteem, and relationship security. She seeks to get these things from the person she is with. She makes her boyfriend or husband responsible for her happiness, self esteem, and security when really she should have come into the relationship with these qualities.
This kind of behavior and characteristic is said to be toxic as it makes a man feel smothered and trapped in the relationship.
Creating a Healthy Happy Relationship
A healthy relationship involves 2 people with their own lives and a life together. She has a life, he has a life and they also have a life together. You can not invade the others space or make the other feel they can not do or say anything that doesn't include you. In a relationship you have to allow the other person to breathe and have personal space, thoughts and actions.
The life two in a relationship share together does not cross over into each personal space or "life". When you come together you share many things such as; time together, trips, outings, money, friends..etc. This is separate from each personal life. In your personal "life" you may have your own money, spend time with your own friends, spend time to yourself… etc.
As long as the other is being respectable with his personal space, it's healthy in a relationship as it allows a person "freedom" to be themselves, freedom to make decisions, and freedom to control a part of their life. This makes for a relationship that isn't smothering, or gives a feeling of being trapped in.
When you are making the other person in your life feel you will become sad and dramatized or upset if they do anything that doesn't include you or thoughts of you, this puts a strain on a relationship. People have a right to "me" time. Depriving someone of this or interfering with this can backfire on you. It's the "me" time that helps a person de-stress and detox mentally.
The constant drama and pity parties can also have a negative effect on a relationship. Almost never does drama bring a happy ending. A man loves a woman who is confident, gives space, and is emotionally balanced. They push away from the woman that is problematic, needy and can never seem to be satisfied.
It's unhealthy for you too
And lastly, being emotionally needy can be draining to oneself. You will find yourself always unhappy and always feeling like you are in a constant battle to get him to "listen" to you. There is no need for you to be at war with yourself or him when he tells you he loves you and does what he realistically can to show you. It's unnecessary stress and drama on a relationship that can cause a break up. With so many other things relationships are up against in this world why bring in the added tension?
When it comes to bettering or fixing your relationship its always best to start with the things that are under your control. Some things you have to deal with in a relationship like your man having a child with his ex. This would be out of your control, you can't change this. But when it comes to things you control, like being emotionally needy, this is where you can make a change and start the fix up process.
Be responsible for your own happiness, self esteem, and security. No one can give you that but you. Do not to let your need for constant reassurance, attention and adoration destroy your relationship. If you find you have trouble coping, don't be afraid to seek out a professional counselor to help you. The first step is realizing a problem exists.Pin It

A Toothy Predator of the Prehistoric Seas: Meet the Leviathan Whale
Twelve million years ago, one sperm whale was king. Between 40 and 60 feet in length the beast scientists named Leviathan melvillei wasn't any bigger than today's sperm whales, but look at those teeth!
As described in a paper published in Nature today, Olivier Lambert discovered the whale's fossils in a Peruvian desert. The creature's name says it all:
[It] combines the Hebrew word 'Livyatan', which refers to large mythological sea monsters, with the name of American novelist Herman Melville, who penned Moby-Dick — "one of my favourite sea books", says lead author Olivier Lambert of the National Museum of Natural History in Paris. [Nature News]
The prehistoric sperm whale may have eaten baleen whales, and its largest chompers are a foot long and some four inches wide. For all the details, check out Ed Yong's post on Not Exactly Rocket Science.

Is Your Cat Scratching Up all your nice Furniture?
Tips before you Buy a Cat Scratching Tree Or Cat Furniture!
First of all, when thinking of buying a cat scratching tree, you should determine which cat scratching tree would be best for your cat.
This all depends on your cats size, your cats climbing abilities and your cats age.
What size cat scratching tree is good for kittens? What is better for cats? Huge Cat scratching trees or small cat scratching trees? For kittens, I recommend you to buy a small, wide cat scratching tree, since most little cats (especially kittens) are careless and jumpy and can easily fall of a tall cat scratching tree and get hurt.
Make sure when buying a kitten scratching tree, that your cat tree doesn't have narrow, high ledges that the kittens can fall off... Therefore, I recommend to buy a great, fun, wide scratching tree for kittens and cats that is safe and provides lots of entertainment!
How will the Cat scratching tree entertain my Cats and Kittens?
By playing, jumping and scratching cats and kittens have a GREAT time on cat scratching trees.
Not only do cats ENJOY to be high up on a tree, (like in nature) but they also enjoy the fun of climbing up a cat scratching tree, scratching up the cat scratching tree and playing catch-me if you have 2 or more cats.
For almost all cats, (especially kittens) it is recommended to have many hanging mice and cat toys on the cat tree, so that especially the young kittens will get loads of entertainment, since they often get bored and restless.
If you have a BIG cat, you might want to get her/him a large cat scratching tree so that she will have plenty of room to climb and scratch and be able to exercise him/herself on the cat scratching tree.
You don't want a fat cat do you?
For older, lazier cats, a climbing tree with more room, more ledges for them to hang of and sleep on and more places to scratch.
What Color Cat Scratching Tree Matches My home best?
When getting a cat scratching tree, you can mostly choose what color you want it in too.
Try choosing a color that will best match your house.
If your walls and furniture are light, then you can take a lighter cat scratching tree.
However if your walls and chairs are dark wood, you might want to choose a dark cat tree.
WARNING: Never buy a cat scratching tree that doesn't have a cover/material over the ledges.
This means that there is no material covering the wood. This is cheaper but worse and dangerous for your cat since splinters can get into it's paws and injure it! Also, a cat tree without any covering material is ugly, plain and unpleasant for your cat to sit on.
Therefore, buy a good cat scratching tree that has a material covering to it!
Here's a recommended site for cheap cat scratching trees.

Kelsie, Sarah and Danelle. Great job ladies ... we were trending!
The evening was perfect, the venue incredible, the weather cooperative, the enthusiasm high ... but we were missing a Top4 pitcher. Who knew that traffic on the Deerfoot at 5:30 on a Thursday evening would be snarled??
We got under way a few minutes late but with a full complement of Top4 presenters.
Lisa and her crew are building an edible garden at their K-6 School in Haysboro and the garden is in the shape of a "dream catcher". The award-winning design will be a shining example to other schools of how to create livable art for kids to participate in and learn from. I think the entire BOD of the Haysboro School was in attendance to cheer as Lisa pitched that a grant from Awesome Foundation would go to buy boards to create the garden (and protect it from those munching bunnies).
Susan Cunningham was up next and she said what we were all thinking "wow, that is a hard act to follow!". Sue and Barb are huge advocates for kids and sports (ok, kids & science, kids & gardens, kids & sports ... all we're missing now is kids & math!) and are organizing Kids Zone Sports - a training program for kids, and their teachers alike, to teach them how to Run, Jump & Throw ... like Olympic Athletes. In conjunction with the 2012 Canadian Track & Field Championships (also the Canadian Olympic qualifying event), Kids Zone Sports will engage Canada's elite athletes with kids.
Sue then invited the Haysboro School kids to demo her training kit equipment. Ok, what's more fun than kids running and jumping in front of an audience of 100 awesome people?! (not even math can beat that!).
Rossbina Nathoo drew the last spot by virtue of having been stuck on the Deerfoot and was relieved that we held the event for her. And I have to say "Wow!" - what an amazing lady doing great things for the seniors of the city. Rossbina started FOCUS on Seniors - a program for empowering seniors by engaging them in community, helping them get board training and reducing isolation and dependance by keeping their minds and bodies active. Rossbina had us mesmerized with her work with seniors and her single-handed efforts to raise this foundation from the ground up (beginning with finding a need with her own mother to now providing support and programs for over 200 seniors). I'll admit it - I shed a tear of admiration while was she was talking.
Ok, now what?? How on earth can we pick only 1 of these 4 awesome projects that are all more than deserving of our grant? As the last Awesome event of 2011, we were ending the year on a high note but also a low note. How can so many great groups of people, supporting so many causes for this city, possibly need our money? What does this say about what has gone missing in our communities to send these incredible people to us looking for funding. How can we, as a city, do more? How can we, as individuals do more? Rhetoric for now ... but a goal to strive for indeed.
After some lively and heated discussion, fisticuffs, and a lot of "wow, how do we decide this one??" It was a close race and a very tough decision but in the end it was Haysboro School Edible Garden that won out and won the $1000 cold, hard cash! The kids were so excited at winning and at the vision of $1000 cash as it emerged from the Awesome loot bag. They each got to hold a good chunk of money for the photo that ensued. Awesome times!

About Corinne Rice
Corinne Rice graduated from Matthew Kenney Academy, deemed one of the best raw culinary schools in the world. She started Chartreuse- a traveling, raw-vegan restaurant in February of 2012. With Chartreuse, she popped up all over the city of Detroit at art galleries, historical buildings, and urban farms. The dinners featured local artists and live music, and the menus (all four course, organic, mostly heirloom, and soy and gluten free) were all different and completely based around what produce was available from urban farms within Detroit's city limits. In Detroit, Corinne is a local celebrity. She has prepared six-course meals for up to 75 people at a time and was the executive chef for David "Avocado" Wolf's birthday dinner in 2011. During the spring of 2013, Rice relocated to Venice, CA, where she started ZOETIC, a spin-off of Chartreuse.
In the kitchen, Corinne prepares organic, plant-based fare with a focus on sourcing locally and creating seasonal dishes. She uses only the finest quality ingredients that are gluten- and soy-free, and whenever possible she uses heirloom varieties. She believes in taking care of our bodies now, by nourishing them with the foods and herbs they need, so that each and every body will be able to live a long, healthy life- one that is filled with joy and happiness.

Tips For Picking A Internet Hosting Company
Unlike a conventional hosting set up, cloud hosting runs using multiple connected servers in place of a single server. A web host will provide its client with all the right to access an online server which will push the client's content to recipients on request. Having a website within this era is of primary importance to any company or individual wanting to achieve out to the world at large.
Today, installing Wordpress, another kind of content management system provided by a internet hosting service, can be as simply as clicking some control on the control panel of your hosting account.

Residents of a care home in Downham enjoyed some festive cheer during a seasonal pantomime outing recently.
Pensioners from Downham Grange nursing home got a special treat after the show when they were introduced to cast members of the Cinderella production at Lynn's Corn Exchange.
Staff who accompanied them had made the trip possible by raising more than £700 through a sponsored walk from the home in Clackclose Road to Lynn's railway station.
Adam Titcombe, maintenance man at the Kingsley Healthcare-run home, had been joined on the road by head chef Natalie Morton and senior carer Mandy Munden.
Mr Titcombe said: "It was really worth the effort to see the residents' faces at the pantomime – and they were delighted to meet the cast."
He has formed a fundraising committee of staff to support a variety of the residents' activities.
Before the walk, they held a successful yard sale and in the new year, they are looking to organise a programme of regular events.
Mr Titcombe added: "I am up for doing anything. One idea I have is to cycle from Downham Grange to our most easterly home in East Anglia, whih is Kirkley Manor in Lowestoft."
A spokesman for Kingsley Healthcare thanked the theatre for "generously offering cut-price tickets" to the home.
Cinderella is on at Lynn's Corn Exchange until Saturday, December 31.

While new Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning was one of the main attractions when the NFL preseason opened Thursday night -- and Manning didn't disappoint -- the enduring quarterback performance of the weekend likely came in the lone game Sunday.
That's when Manning's replacement with the Indianapolis Colts, top overall draft pick Andrew Luck, threw a touchdown pass on his first attempt and finished with 188 passing yards and two scores in a resounding 38-3 win over the St. Louis Rams.
With this being the preseason, veteran fantasy owners should know better than to overrate any statistics. Those who didn't watch Luck's performance might not be aware that his first touchdown salvo, a 63-yarder to running back Donald Brown, came on a screen pass in which Brown did most of the work. Luck completed 10 of 16 passes, with another touchdown to wide receiver Austin Collie, who was targeted by Luck five times. Entering Monday, the only quarterbacks with more passing yards this preseason are backups Chase Daniel of the New Orleans Saints and Jarrett Lee of the San Diego Chargers. Their starters, Drew Brees and Philip Rivers, need not be concerned.
Luck, however, is a starter from day one and is going 19th among quarterbacks in ESPN average live drafts, which seems about right. Will he move up this week because of his debut? Well, he shouldn't pass Andy Dalton and probably shouldn't be going ahead of Joe Flacco, Carson Palmer and Ryan Fitzpatrick, but those who really enjoyed his work at Stanford might be tempted to jump the gun. ESPN Fantasy projects 3,408 passing yards and more interceptions than touchdowns from Luck this season. Colleague Christopher Harris discussed the top rookies in this video, noting the risk of relying on an inexperienced signal-caller.
We'll keep an eye on Luck's ADP over the next week and beyond. If anything, the performances of Brown and Collie seem more interesting and potentially relevant, especially for a team that isn't expected to have a top defense. Brown is the highest-ranking Colt in ADP, going 98th overall, and he certainly had a few relevant moments in the second half of 2011. Collie's breakout 2010 was shortened by repeated concussions, but he could be enticing in PPR formats. It's premature to move any Colts up your list following Sunday's game, but each of these three at least merit attention.
As for the rest of the weekend news, the biggest story was the broken clavicle suffered by San Diego Chargers running back Ryan Mathews, which ESPN Fantasy has covered extensively. Here are some other notes of interest from a busy preseason weekend:
• Minnesota Vikings running back Toby Gerhart averaged 6.2 yards on five carries in San Francisco on Friday night, but that news paled in comparison to the team activating superstar Adrian Peterson from the PUP list, clearing him for practice this week. It's not likely Peterson will suit up this week, but fantasy owners likely will presume this means all is well with Peterson's recovery. I'm willing to be as optimistic as anyone, but Gerhart should remain in the top 100.
• Speaking of returning from ACL surgery, Kansas City Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles had 23 yards on three carries and a reception Friday night. It wasn't as statistically impressive as what new Chief Peyton Hillis accomplished (4 carries, 41 yards, receiving touchdown), but it was good to see Charles overcome his first hit, which happened to be to the left knee in question. He popped right up as if his knee had never been damaged.
• In the same game, Arizona Cardinals running back William Powell broke a 67-yard run and scored on a two-yarder, finishing with 92 rushing yards on nine totes. Powell and Alfonso Smith are the leading contenders for fourth string among the Arizona running backs, behind Beanie Wells, Ryan Williams and LaRod Stephens-Howling; the first two didn't suit up as they recover from knee injuries. Unless Wells and Williams aren't ready for September, this isn't a situation worth watching.
• Meanwhile, Philadelphia Eagles backup quarterback Mike Kafka broke his left hand Thursday night and probably won't play again this preseason. Rookie Nick Foles threw a pair of touchdown passes and could pass Kafka on the depth chart. This matters because starter Michael Vick last played 16 games in a season in 2006. Vick injured his left thumb Thursday but is expected to practice this week and start the second preseason game, next Monday at New England.

Hard Rock Cafe Miami Reviews
48 reviews
Typical Hard Rock Feb 14, 2009
If you are a Hard Rock fan, this cafe/restaurant is for you. Located in Bayside, Miami, FL, this location is undergoing an outdoor renovation. We were a little disappointed there was no outside seating on such a nice day. This restaurant overlooks the bay in the Bayside Marketplace complex. Previously, you could sit on the patio and watch the action of Bayside or the cruise ships leave the port.
A typical menu followed by good service and average food. The restaurant is typical "Hard Rock" decor. Our server was very good. The restaurant was very busy due to Valentine's Day and the nearby boat show. We waited to be seated for approximately 30 minutes, but the service and food were quite good.
The building looks a little tired and worn out, but has a great location.

Home / The coolest club on Earth
Tuesday 25th August 2015 1:40 pm
There are some pretty exclusive 'clubs' around. You know, there are only a few hundred people who have ever left a spacecraft to enter the cold vacuum of space for a walk — and that's a very exclusive club.
A slightly less exclusive club is the '300 Club' — but it's still pretty cool. The entry requirements are brutally simple, and a bit scary.
You join this club only by exposing your skin to a sudden temperature change of slightly more that 300 Fahrenheit degrees. That's over 180 Centigrade degrees.
It's also the most southerly club on the planet. This traditional winter ritual happens down in the Antarctic, or to be more specific, at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station.
It's do-it-yourself entertainment for the lonely Antarctic residents, cut off from the rest of the world, in the depths of winter. This is the most remote base where we have humans — and by "most remote" I mean anywhere in the known universe, including the International Space Station.
There are about 50 people there, and for eight out of every 12 months, there's no way in or out.
The 300 Club has a number of prerequisites. First, the government meteorologist has to proclaim that the outside air temperature is officially a bit colder than minus 100°F (about -73.3°C).
Then, inside the station, they crank up the sauna to a bit hotter than 200°F (about 93.3°C). You get in the sauna, naked apart from insulated boots, and sweat it out for a few minutes. Then, you towel away the sweat and go outside for a breath of fresh air. Wearing only the boots, you slowly trot out of the sauna, out of the station in the minus 100°F, loop around the actual geographic South Pole, and then back inside again. It takes a few minutes.
The experience is not exactly comfortable. Back in 2006, the then-South Pole winter site manager, Andy Martinez, said: "It just felt like somebody was hitting me with a tennis racket full of needles."
Mind you, on the day he did it, there was a slight wind. So the wind chill factor made the -75.5°C air temperature feel like -97.7°C.
So how do you survive the extreme heat of the 200°F (about 93.3°C) sauna? After all, you can cook an egg or a steak at that temperature.
The difference is that we humans can sweat. Provided that you are hydrated enough, you will sweat enormous amounts. As this sweat evaporates, you get cooling on your skin. Mind you, once you get dehydrated and stop sweating, you will rapidly overheat.
Of course, the sauna has to be a dry sauna, so that the sweat on your skin can evaporate. If the air inside the sauna is heavy with water, then the water in the sweat on your skin cannot evaporate — and again, you'll overheat.
What about the extreme cold of less than minus 100°F (about -73.3°C)? When your skin gets exposed to this low a temperature, your body tries to not lose any heat. So the blood vessels in the skin close up very suddenly, and a lot of blood is immediately shunted or relocated internally. Unfortunately, this means that your heart is exposed to a massive overload of blood — but only for a few seconds. Even so, you need a healthy heart with a lot of reserve capacity to give this a try.
A mate of mine, Darryn Schneider, was down at the South Pole, installing and working on the underground AMANDA Telescope (Antarctic Muon and Neutrino Detector Array.) It was the precursor to Ice Cube Neutrino Telescope, which Schneider also worked on.
Ice Cube Telescope is some 94 strings of optical sensors, buried vertically in the ice. They run from about 1.5 to 2.8 kilometres below the surface of the ice, and they detect neutrinos.
Back in early July, in the year 2000, the temperature dropped to -100oF. So Schneider tried out for the 300 Club. He survived the +200°F sauna, toweled off the sweat, and walked the length of the tunnel to the outside world — which was waiting to whack him him at minus 100°F. Then he made his big mistake.
Instead of walking the few hundred metres to the South Pole, he ran. After a while, he began to feel a little chilly, and came back into the warmth. And then it hit. He began coughing.
Schneider was lucky — because he had a cough only for the rest of the day. He wasn't the only one. Some of the people who ran for the Club event had a cough for a few days. They had what they called, "frost bite of the lungs".
So slow and steady, and a decidedly thick skin, may just get you into the 300 Club, if you're game …

> Guyi Garden (Garden of Ancient Splendour)
Add:218, Huyi Rd, near Zhongren Rd.
Tel:021-5912 2225
Time:Apr-Jun,7am-6pm; Jul-Sep,7am-6:30pm; Oct-Mar,7am-6pm
Originally called "Yi Garden", where "Yi" means a beautiful view of bamboo, Guyi Garden was designed by a well-known bamboo-carving master from the Ming Dynasty.
Guyi Garden was initially built by a retired government official in the 16th century and was renovated several times when it changed ownership. The garden was destroyed by war in the early 20th century. Local residents and the government renovated and expanded the old garden. Today it is a well-known local attraction.
The garden is best known for its lotus ponds and bamboo copses, but it also includes a wintersweet hall, with patterns of the flower carved on the wooden windows. Various types of wintersweet trees surround the structure.
A pavilion in the garden constructed during the Anti-Japanese War was built with one corner absent. It serves to remind people that a part of China's territory was once under the Japanese Occupation.
Guyi Garden is close to the old streets of Nanxiang Town in Jiading District. It's near the founding site of xiaolongbao, the famous pork dumplings. Just a few blocks from the gardens, one can indulge in freshly cooked dumplings.

Hello, friends!
Life seems to be flying by – all of a sudden it is almost March and (maybe) spring! (A girl from Minnesota can hope, right?)
I've been so caught up in school, work, and planning for the future (and graduation next year!) that I barely see what's going on around me. Monday, during yoga class, my neck was so incredibly tight and I was thinking of the possible reasons why when I suddenly realized that I don't look up anymore. I'm focused on the screen in front of me, taking notes, bending over a textbook, hunched over in the dark room or watching my feet so I don't step in a pile of snow… err slush. Life is chock-full and bursting at the seams with all good things, but I want to be able to look up at the clouds and sun and breathe deep.
Two classes this semester are pushing me out of my comfort zone – making me a better writer. While I'm not a creative focused writer, I now lie wide awake at night as characters dance through my head and new plot ideas are born. I've never been haunted by a story before but all of a sudden I'm surrounded by ideas begging to be put down on paper and characters asking for their stories to be told. What I love about the writing world is that you can write anything. As a writer I can create any story, real or not, believable or not – the words can be twisted and used in any way I desire. I can create stories of adventure and excitement; I can write of heartbreak and sorrow.
As a writer, it is a victory and challenge to be able to break through the regular "box" of writing and let creativity flow. Bleeding into every area of my life, I find new corners of my life to explore and expand.
I've been working a bit with Belong Mag which I invite you to check out! A new print magazine that is a collaboration of entrepreneurial women sharing their secrets, tips, stories of success and failure. A new creative publication helping women find out where they belong!
I'm choosing to write more freely and relaxed on here…just updates on life and my thoughts and adventures! We'll see where it leads.
I'd love to hear what life is challenging you with and what discoveries you are making along the way!

7 Extraordinary Truss-based Designs
This week we indulge in different types of buildings with one thing in common – their extraordinary truss-based design.
If you find yourself in Hungary then go visit the Pancho Arena where you can enjoy a game of soccer and the beautiful arching stadium design, with its extraordinary tree trusses.
Another amazing truss-based design is the Ray and Dagmar Dolby Regeneration Medicine Building (UCSF) in California. The building is supported by steel space trusses springing from concrete piers that are designed to absorb earthquakes.
Finally, if you want to have an architectural experience while browsing through Asian modern art, then the Asia Museum of Modern Art in Taiwan is the place for you. The museum is an astonishing V-shaped structured building with only diagonal columns and is truly a masterpiece.
Below, we have collected a handful of the most remarkable truss-based buildings.
