Recharge time
From Guild Wars Wiki
Recharge time is the minimum period that a character must wait after using a skill before they can attempt to activate it again. Skills that are interrupted or disrupted by knock down also have to wait to be recharged. Failing skills are ready immediately; they do not need to recharge. The visual indicator of a recharging skill is a darkened skill icon that gradually lightens as if a clock-hand was sweeping through from noon to midnight.
- 1 Mechanics
- 2 Skills that reduce recharge time
- 3 Skills that involve instant recharge
- 4 Skills that recharge by a morale boost
- 5 Skills that increase recharge time
- 6 Notes
- A skill begins recharging at the exact moment the skill is completed or prevented.
- Before a skill is used, its recharge time can be affected by other skills, environmental effects or weapons (HSR). For example, Quickening Zephyr lessens recharge times while Energizing Wind lengthens them.
- Disabling a skill can prolong its recharge time but cannot shorten. For example, Blackout disables any skill of its user for 5 seconds. If one particular skill was recharging and its remaining time was 3 seconds, then it will be prolonged to 5 seconds. If another skill had 30 seconds left until recharge, it will not be affected by Blackout and will continue recharge normally.
- While a skill is being activated, the user can alter its recharge time by invoking a stance. For example, if you activate Serpent's Quickness before completing a casting of Meteor, the recharge time will be shortened.
- Several effects can reduce the recharge time of skills. Several of these effects will stack additively, up to a maximum of 50% reduced recharge time. However, a single skill's effect can bypass this limit and in PvE, Fast Casting also bypasses this limit for mesmer spells.
- A skill that requires adrenaline cannot gain adrenaline while it is recharging.

- 2 T butter, softened
- 1/2 c milk
- 1 c cream
- 2 eggs
- pinch salt
- pinch cracked black pepper
- 1 loaf Asiago bread
- 1 c Asiago cheese, shredded
- Pre-heat oven to 375. Brush sides and bottom of 1 1/2 quart casserole dish with softened butter. In a large mixture bowl, whisk together milk, cream, eggs, salt and pepper, and set aside. Cut Asiago bread into 1/4" slices. Start assembly by placing one slice of bread on the bottom of the dish. Sprinkle about 1/2 tsp of cheese on the bread slice. Cover with another slice of bread and sprinkle with the same amount of cheese on top. Continue this pattern for 2 more slices then pour about 1/3 of the egg mixture on top. Return to building the strata for 4 more layers then pour another 1/3 of the mixture on. Build the strata until you have reached 1/4" from the top of the dish and finish off with remaining egg mixture. Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes. Place on a cookie sheet and bake for about 45 minutes on the center rack. Strata should develop a dark, rich color an rise slightly in the casserole. Carefully remove from oven and set aside to cool for 15 min. Carefully invert the strata by placing a 10 inch plate over the top of the dish. Slowly flip the plate and dish over together. Place on counter and allow the strata to fall from the dish onto the plate. If the strata does not release from the dish, cut around the sides of the dish and try to invert again. Serve hot or warm as an accompaniment with meat and vegetables.

we all have different texting paces depending on our life and schedule. but would you change your texting pace because of our partners pace.
i mean I am completely free most of the time unless I am out and that allows me to reply fast but the girl replies really slow may be take 2 days or more sometimes should I change it to her pace and wait 2 days before replying?
Most Helpful Guy
It really depends on how far along you are in your "relationship". I don't mean relationship as romantic, I mean, level of knowing each other. Back in the day, before texting, you might only talk to the person a few times between dates - ON the phone. Now, with this instant communication, some people expect instant responses. Not everyone agrees or does that. But, this brings into the question, are the long spaces between messages because that is just the persons personality or that they really aren't that interested in you and are fitting you into THEIR schedule or responding whenever they want.
For me, 2 days would be unacceptable for any relationship - friend, girlfriend, family, coworker etc. Within the day is my standard. I don't require instant - unless we've been chatting and responding nearly instantly.10|10|0

When she was only 12 she became a member of the Young Acoustic All-Stars, a group of young Bluegrass players that performed throughout America.

She has filled opening slots for such Country artists as Tracy Lawrence, Montgomery Gentry, the late George Jones and many others.

Mad Makeover Boosts Interest in Alfa Romeo's Smallest Car
By Andy Bannister
The jury is still currently out on the success or otherwise of Alfa Romeo's smallest model for many years – the Mini Cooper-rivalling MiTo (its slightly annoying name is a contrived reference to the Italian car making cities of Milano and Torino).
Sales of the three-door MiTo are only just getting cranked up, and the hottest version so far is the 1.4-litre T-Jet, which delivers a respectable enough 155hp. It is comprehensively blown into the weeds, however by a remarkably eye-catching special being touted around Europe at the moment.
Known as the Marangoni M430, it boasts a new turbo, injectors and stainless steel exhaust and develops 233hp. The little car can reportedly do 0-62mph in 6.6 seconds and can achieve a top speed of 158mph – not bad for 1400cc.
In these depressing times for the auto industry it's refreshing to see such a very individual, very Italian product pushing the boundaries.
Trouble is, the model isn't an official Alfa show car. It's a one-off promotional product expensively concocted by Roman tyre maker Marangoni and Florence-based tuning firm TRC.
This super-MiTo doesn't take the relatively subtle approach epitomised by AMG with its sportier Mercs. Quite the reverse, in fact.
The standard car's perfectly normal doors have been ditched in favour of outrageous scissor-opening units inspired by the legendary Lamborghini Countach, and inside the Italian flag features on the sports seats and there are Swarovski crystals inserted into the leather gearshift collar, handbrake and pedals.
The M430 moniker is shamelessly borrowed from the Ferrari of the same name.
For all its customised-to-hell-and-back appearance – red tyres, red-and-white paintwork and special equipment including a carbon fibre diffuser and quad exhaust tailpipes are also fitted – the Marangoni does hint at what might be possible from Alfa's own-range topping MiTo model when it finally arrives.
The custom cabin and stand-out looks (although not entirely successful, especially from the front) do manage to make it an unusually interesting premium small car.
It's too new to say at the moment whether (with or without a GTA version) it stands a hope of being anywhere near as successful as the Mini, and its chances may be harmed at birth by the dire state of the new car market.
One crumb of comfort in Europe is the MiTo has helpfully arrived at a time when the few buyers still confident enough to go out and buy a new car are thinking about downsizing their vehicles. Unfortunately, though, that could hit even harder the already-miserable sales of Alfa Romeo's staple product, the 159 saloon (an Italian rival for the BMW 3-series) storing up yet more problems for Alfa's hard-pressed dealerships.

Sydney is where it all happens.
Qld is where it's at. Sun, surf, sand.
Except I have been trapped in my area for a little while now because of floods....
C faux justement 4 carte as 100 dans les modes c beaucoup beaux plus rapide que 16 carte.... ;p
depend on people stop complaining about it and have more patience like i do and many of these threads are probably annoying treyarch alot
if dlc comes to wii U we'll probably get it
DLC is on wii U i have dlc for Zen 2 pinball! download paid tables on the other day! very smooth process and took minutes on nintendo shop! went to the game, on to the paid content section! ticked the box of the tables I wanted!
Done, money taken from the online account and 15 minutes later I was playing said tables! there is nothing stopping dlc for this game apart from activision themselves!
it's all about the money money money! sing it people!
I think DLC is done to death on here! for me to get it I need to be sure the regular 150 players on all the time who play hardcore so probably 1000 people in total also buy it! I don't really play much core apart from domination and demolition with the odd kill confirmed and hardpoint now an again!
It's only 3000-4000 people at the moment on at peak times on average here in the UK between 8pm-1am GMT maybe more when the USA come online at their peak times when the rest of the world go to bed! Fracturing this up in to those who have and those who don't could mean a struggle to find some games at first.
lets wait until the announcement on here for PS3! i understand that some people say there are less players on PC then Wii U???? so if PC gets it then maybe we will too! can we stop the threads now???
yeah i was being facetious. When i said "If DLC come to wiiU" i actually meant if the BLOPS2 DLC comes to wiiU. I was in a stupid mood.
I downloaded Zen the other night. Just as i was getting interested the tables would expire. So didnt bother proceeding. They need to draw you in more like giving you 20mins of play time. The way i see it is that if they only give you a couple of minutes play time before you have to buy then maybe they are worried that the game wont hold your attention for any longer than this.
alors pour les dlc ils ne cracheront pas sur la soupe meme ci il yas du caviard as coter ki ce vant mieux
There's around 30k players average online on pc. Plus, they can just...you know....make more maps themselves.

When it comes to California, every season is fire season. It seems that every year, a new wildfire breaks out that draws the attention of news media and worried onlookers. The most recent fire, the Lake Fire, has devoured over 30,000 acres. As daunting as that sounds, this doesn't even put the Lake Fire on Cal Fire's top ten list. As frightening as some of these fire stories can be, it can always be much worse. Here are brief looks at the top three biggest fires in recent California history.
Cedar Fire
The Cedar Fire that engulfed San Diego County was not only a notorious fire by itself, but it was also one of 15 different wildfires that occurred within the single month of October 2003. The Cedar Fire holds the top spot on Cal Fire's list at over 273,000 acres burned, 2,820 structures lost, and 15 deaths. The fire was manmade and caused by a lost hunter attempting to light a signal fire in hopes of being rescued. The 2003 firestorm led to a variety of structural changes at state, local, and federal levels with how fires were fought.
Rush Fire
The Rush Fire erupted in Northeastern California from a lightning strike in August 2012. While it's placed second on Cal Fire's list at around 271,000 acres burned, this acreage doesn't account for the rough 43,000 acres that burned in Nevada. Unlike the Cedar fire, the damage was mostly to unhabituated wilderness area resulting in no structure loss or deaths.
Rim Fire
Started by an illegal campfire in the Stanislaus National Forest, the Rim fire went on to burn over 257,000 acres of the Sierra Nevada Mountains in August 2013. The acreage is considerably less than the Rush fire, but the Rim fire was closer to population centers. This resulted in the loss of 112 structures, but thankfully no loss of life. The fire was not technically declared "out" until over a year later in November 2014.
Burning For You
Wildfires and the risk of fire damage are a part of everyday reality in California. It's vital to keep the following suggestions in mind to ensure that you and your family areprepared should the unthinkable happen:
- Make sure every room in your home has a fire alarm with fresh batteries
- Make sure that your property has a fire extinguisher on hand
- Keep your yard clear of dry brush
- Make evacuation plan with your family
- Ensure that your home is covered for wildfires by your insurance.
- Verify the reporting procedure for your insurance company.
- Let a fire restoration service handle the rest.
You probably won't prevent the next big wildfire, but you can keep you and your family ready for the worst. By taking these relatively simple measures and following them through, you can make sure that you, your family, and your property are given the best protection against wildfire and fire damage as possible.

According to US Weekly, Dancing With The Stars producers very badly want Olympic gymnast Simone Biles on the dance floor for Season 23 of the show.
Season 23 is set to premiere on September 12th, and Biles is rumored to be the top pick celebrity to get on the show.
There's no doubt that Simone is amazing, having picked up 5 medals during the Rio Olympics.
The question is, will they be able to get her to join the cast?

text: Well, after all that work, and yep, a mild chemical burn on my right hand, I got the fuel pump out and cleaned the screen on it. However, it turns out it wasn't really all that dirty. Not much 'lint' came off the thing. After reinstallation (and a slight moment of panic when I went to start the car, and it wouldn't turn over at first, because removing the banjo bolt on the top of the sender let fuel out of the line), it turns out that the fuel pump is only slightly less loud than it was before. And I mean 'slightly' as in "I could be imagining that it's less loud, but I'm going to be happy with that for the moment, because I don't want to think I just spent 2 hours in the trunk huffing gas for no good reason." Downside: lost braincells, a fantastic smell that's bound to make me popular with the ladies, and no significant change in my fuel pump volume. Upside: I know how to R&R the fuel pump and sender, which makes me happy, and gives me that warm sense of accomplishment...not too warm, though...I'm pretty sure I'm still flammable. Thanks to everyone for all the advice, and the lister who loaned me the fuel pump wrench (made that part of the job just ridiculously easy). I did remember to disconnect the battery before starting this job, and used a nifty little LED flashlight for a light source, so as not to have extra heat sources there in that closed space. Once in Dallas, I saw a fellow with Georgia plates on his old Camaro or Firebird or something pull up to the gas station, hop out with the car running and start filling his car up while smoking a cigarette. Fortunately for everyone, nothing happened, but I was just waiting to see a Car-BQ. -------------------------------------------------- From: "Tony and Lillie" <tonyandlillie1 at earthlink.net> Sent: Tuesday, February 17, 2009 4:22 PM To: "Karl Middlebrooks" <benzeenprophet at hotmail.com>; <ekellock at gmail.com>; "Audi V8Q Mailing list" <v8 at audifans.com> Subject: Re: [V8] fuel pump sender locking ring removal? > Karl, > > I've ben that guy, so I understand your concern.

From rains to races – August makes it a great time to travel India. This is the time of year when you can explore the great Himalayas in the North, enjoy the tranquil backwaters of the South, or experience the tribal cultures in the Northeast. The recent monsoon brings alive about the entire country. And what makes it even better is that most of us are still left with our yearly corporate paid holidays which can now be put at a good use travelling. So, pack your bags and head to any of these top travel destinations in India.
Eastern Khasi Hills, Meghalaya
Although the region must have usurped its wettest-place-on-earth title, particularly the town of Mawsynram, which gets the maximum rainfall in the entire world, Eastern Khasi Hills becomes much alive and far more beautiful during, and right after the monsoon. Walking the living Root Bridges in the neighbouring town of Nongriat is moreover an out-of-the-world experience. [Read: The Village With Living Root Bridges – Nongriat]
The Backwaters of Alleppey, Kerala
With the Annual Nehru Trophy Snake Boat Race being just around the corner (13th August), Alleppey becomes a competitive venue for travellers in August. Be here to watch hundreds of oarsmen, in their traditional snake boat race, as they compete for the framed silver trophy, and transform the calm backwaters into a beehive of activities. It is a time when festivity and the adrenaline rush fill the air. And if sports don't interest you, you can always experience the tranquillity of this place as a regular, high-class tourist. [Read: Life In The Backwaters Of Alleppey]
The Moonland of Leh Laddakh
If you're one of those frugal backpackers out there, and the peak tourist seasons of June and July (when most of the tourists flock to Leh Laddakh) take a toll on your budget, then consider visiting these mesmerising landscapes in the month of August, or early September. This is when the weather is just nearly perfect, public transport is not overly crowded, and the guest houses start coming out of their usual rip-them-tourists-off practice. Moreover the roads to Leh Laddakh start closing around October, so visiting it in the month of August gives you enough time to take a few detours, and explore these astonishing highlands like a real backpacker. [Read: My Hitchhiking Experience From Leh To Srinagar]
Coorg, Karnataka
Situated in Western Ghats, Coorg is one of the rainiest places in India. Since the recent monsoon has transformed the place into a lush green paradise, August is the best time to experience its beauty. This moreover is the time of year when one can experience the splendour of the many seasonal waterfalls around this place. [Read: Amazing Experiences During My Visit To Coorg]
Valley of Flowers, Uttarakhand
Though it's a different story that I've never been able to visit this vibrant and splendid national park, thanks to the brutal monsoons in Uttrakhand – visiting the Valley of Flowers, at least once in your lifetime, is a no miss. Famous for its charming meadows of alpine flowers, the valley opens only between June to September. And what makes August an ideal time to visit this place, is that flowers around this time start germinating and burst into full bloom, and the monsoon has nearly ended – making the trek a fairly easy deal.

The Maine Association of Realtors has prepared a "4 Facts about Maine Real Estate" to respond to common consumer questions or concerns about buying real estate.
1. All Markets are local
2. Another word for real estate is home
3. There is available mortgage money
4. It's still the greatest source of wealth-building
1. All Markets are local. Yes, there is national, regional, state and county statistical data, but each will not clearly or fully explain market conditions in a town or neighborhood. Market conditions can also vary based on types of property or whether waterfront or not, for example. What happens with California or
Las Vegas real estate sales is not going to mirror real estate sales conditions in your area of interest. Please get local market information from a local REALTOR®.
As general information, the chart below shows what has happened with median real estate home sales prices statewide in Maine over the past nine years.
2. Another word for real estate is home. Don't forget the real estate you buy may be where you live or where you vacation. Many buyers are finding properties in Maine that are larger or more affordable than the last time they checked. Don't miss the opportunity to move into your dream house while there are so many affordable and desirable options.
3. There is available mortgage money. There's so much press about predatory lending that the story there is money to lend by local and reputable lenders can get lost. Don't be discouraged by negative press – instead check with a local reputable lender to get the real facts on what you may be able to afford and what your monthly payments may be. Find out if you can pay less monthly by owning than renting.
The fact that predatory lending practices have been halted is great for consumers, not bad.
4. It's still the greatest source of wealth-building. Real estate like everything else may fluctuate with economic cycles, but over the long term is consistently the asset that provides the greatest wealth to Americans. If you're renting, check to see what tax opportunities or long-term wealth may be created if you invest in real estate now. If you've always wanted to trade up, any loss you may take on a first home may be more than made up by the value added in the second home. Do the math.

Unrealistic, but wrong?

If you're born a princess, how can a person help that?
To want to be a princess, unrealistic but not 100% at least.
To want to be treated like a princess in the idea of pampered, lots of lavish material things showered on you, exemptions from rules, very selfish.11|00|0

Cathay Pacific reported (14-Oct-2011) a sixth consecutive month of year-on-year cargo declines in Sep-2011, with Cathay Pacific GM cargo sales and marketing James Woodrow adding that "there is no sign yet of the traditional year-end peak beginning" (Reuters, 14-Oct-2011).
Cathay Pacific: "On the cargo side there was no significant change from the situation in August, with the key Hong Kong and China markets both remaining soft and demand to long-haul destinations, particularly Europe, below expectations. There is no sign yet of the traditional year-end peak beginning. On the positive side, intra-Asia traffic is holding up well and flights from most destinations into Hong Kong have been relatively full. We have recently launched freighter services to Chongqing and Chengdu to boost our presence in the growing Western China market," James Woodrow, General Manager Cargo Sales & Marketing.

Following a report from Comicbook.com http://comicbook.com/2014/09/14/was-the-punisher-being-established-in-captain-america-the-winter/ (the original link)
speculated through an interview from comingsoon.net that director of highly accailmed Marvel film The Winter Soldier the Russo brother reportedly hinted of future Marvel canon through establish a small but major scene where a truck collides to protect the heroes and destroys Hydra's vehicles "The man who drives that truck," Joe deadpans, joking that the driver is a candidate for a future Marvel One-Shot, "Is very highly trained. He thinks on his own terms. He's got a plan and a very specific skill set." Whilst this is only a speculation that it could be the deadly anti hero The Punisher who is a highly trained former agent, who fights for himself often killing and with plan of vengeance.
Maybe the driver could be another hero like Mockingbird
or MoonKnight
even Elektra
There are many other trained anti-heros but the one that sticks out is the Punisher as he has had a long standing relationship with Shield and as a result could have known about the events occurring with Hydra overtake of Shield, so its highly likely it was to be Punisher even though Mockingbird has a relationship with shield, her characteristics is far from crashing a truck into a herd of vehicles.

Supply chain management in the US and Taiwan: An empirical study
This study uses an empirical survey of middle-line managers in the US and Taiwan to study the association of supply chain management components and organizational performance. Through structural equation modeling, critical components of supply chain management are found to have considerable effects on organizational performance. The findings of the study are summarized as follows: - Supply chain competencies have positive effects on organizational performance in both the US and Taiwan. Supply chain competencies are developed around quality and service, operations and distribution, and design effectiveness. The goal of supply chain competencies is to satisfy customer requirements. - Supply chain practices, which are made up of supply chain features, integration, and customer services, have direct impact on organizational performance in Taiwan, but they have only indirect impact in the US. - Supply chain practices and competencies are significantly associated in both the US and Taiwan. However,supply chain concerns and practices are associated in the case of the USA only.These results help middle-line managers in both the US and Taiwan to know which components and practices of supply chain management to focus on to improve organizational performance. They also show some of the similarities between the two regions and note differences that may be situation-dependent. However, what is measured here is the perception of middle-line managers. The actual practices may be different from these perceptions.

SPEAKER PELOSI: Good morning.
Q Good morning.
Q Good morning.
SPEAKER PELOSI: Yesterday, we were all dutifully shaken by the news of the violent attack at the Holocaust Museum. It reminds us of the valiant work of people who strive to protect us here, whether it's the tourist who visits, the press who cover, the members of Congress, the embassies, the -- the administration. They do so with great courage.
We had our own: Gibson and Chestnut. Those two words mean a great deal to us here, two who lost their lives fighting in the Capitol. And now, Stephen Johns.
Later today, we will have a resolution on the floor, hopefully to give comfort to his family and also to talk about how despicable this act of violence was. It's really sad.
Earlier this week, we met with the president at the White House when he announced his pay-as-you-go initiative. It was with great excitement that we heard his statement. Just as a little history, maybe even ancient history to some of you -- that means before-you- were-born history -- in 1982, at the Democratic midterm convention in Philadelphia, Congressman George Miller introduced a resolution for pay-as-you-go. It was passed. It became part of the Democratic platform that year. And it took until 1990 for it to become operative here under -- when President Bush was president of the United States.
Throughout the '90s, it was how we operated, pay-as-you-go. And the last four budgets of President Clinton were in -- or in balance or in surplus. We have to -- we know what has happened in eight years intervening in terms of the reversal of that under George -- President George W. Bush.
But now, happily, Democrats are coming together around this concept. For many years, it has been the central organizing purpose of the Blue Dogs: fiscal discipline, fiscal responsibility. And -- but I want you to know that there are initiatives from all sectors of our caucus which support pay-as-you-go.
Early this year, in February, I sent a letter to our colleagues, the chairs of the committees, to ask them to subject everything under their scrutiny to -- under their jurisdiction to the harshest scrutiny to find savings when there's waste, fraud, abuse, obsolescence or duplication. We have gotten the reports back. We'll save $10 billion below the president's budget in that respect, and as our appropriations bills go forward, they will implement that direction.
Health care reform will be part of how we address -- reducing the deficit. Health care reform is entitlement reform as the president so clearly states.
So with great excitement that we are accelerating our discussion of pay as you go as an important part of how we go forward on energy, on health care, on education, the three pillars to turn the economy around.
The Congress in the next week or so will have legislation on the supplemental and the FDA that our committee work will be focused on the three pillars of the president's agenda, which were in the budget, health care again, education, energy, reduce the deficit, lower taxes, create jobs, turn the economy around.
With that, I'd be pleased to take any questions. Yes, sir?
Q You said that health care reform will be fully paid for?
SPEAKER PELOSI: Yes.
Q (Off mike.)
SPEAKER PELOSI: That is our intention and that is the work that we are doing now, one of them. But as a priority, how is it scored? How do we pay for it? It will be paid for.
Q Speaker Pelosi?
SPEAKER PELOSI: Yes, ma'am.
Q Back here.
SPEAKER PELOSI: Okay.
Q So I guess the disclosure forms are out.
SPEAKER PELOSI: Right.
Q You have large -- (inaudible) -- through other members of Congress --(inaudible) -- and not just bailout funds, but in large aspects of the economy, you're investing in clean energy -- (inaudible) -- do you think there should be stronger restrictions on how members of Congress -- is it a conflict of interest there should be stronger restrictions?
SPEAKER PELOSI: No. I don't think there should be restriction on investments. We did that when it became accompanied with receiving funds, we divested ourselves of that, but for a long time, AIG was a thriving company and a concern in our country. But when there's any thought of conflict of interest, yes, then we should do that. But we don't know what that's going to be in advance. Who would have ever thought that AIG, this giant of an industry would come to the place where the United States Government had to bail it out? Nobody is happy about that.
Q Madame Speaker, later today, the Commerce Committee will meet on the supplemental. Can you talk to us for a moment -- later today will be the conference committee on the supplemental --
SPEAKER PELOSI: Conference committee.
Q And there's been a lot of debate about further language from the Senate --
SPEAKER PELOSI: Right.
Q Has a final decision been made on that? And if the decision has been made to strike that then the House -- (inaudible) -- how was that decision arrived at and why?
SPEAKER PELOSI: Well, no final decision has been made. The conference committee will work its will and make its decision. But I can't say to you there's great concern in the House about making an exception to freedom of information while the case is before a judge.
Q Madame Speaker, when your office was working on the TARP legislation and other bailout legislation, did you at the time know about your portfolio and how much money your family had invested in AIG and other companies?
SPEAKER PELOSI: Well, I signed my disclosure form. Yes. We didn't know on September 17th or 18th, the administration would come in and tell us the condition of our economy that if we didn't act now, we would not have an economy. That was a Thursday night -- by Monday. No, we did not know that. But I signed my disclosure form.
Q Madame Speaker, on energy, Chairman Waxman and Congressman Boucher yesterday both said that they intend -- they're working toward a floor debate the week before the 4th of July recess, June 22nd. Can you confirm that that is the goal that you're working toward? And also, how are you helping to bridge the differences with the Agriculture Committee?
SPEAKER PELOSI: Well, we will bring the bills to the floor when they are ready, whether it's health care, whether it's energy, when they are ready. And I congratulate Chairman Waxman and Mr. Markey for the masterful job they did in passing the bill through the Energy and Commerce Committee.
Now, other committees have their jurisdiction to weigh in on and that's the process we're involved in and when we're finished and when we're ready, we'll go to the floor.
Q On health care, Madame Speaker --
SPEAKER PELOSI: Yes, ma'am.
Q There are bipartisan discussions in the Senate about an idea, looking at creating privately-run cooperatives instead of a public option. I'm just wondering what you think of the concept and given the concerns among some of your moderate members about public options, this is something you might be able to do.
SPEAKER PELOSI: Not instead of a public option, no. In our caucus, I think, members have -- I know that members have been very clear about what their concerns might be about a public option and I agree. It should be actuarially sound. It should be administrative and self-sufficient. It should be a real competitor with the private sector and not have an unfair advantage. When you say the words public option if that is the term about we will be using, you have to say right next to it, level playing field. But in our House, there's strong support for public option and great respect for the concerns that had been raised within our caucus and we will address them.
Q Given what you just described is going to be very complicated for people to understand, given the experience of the Clinton health plan had and we had with Medicare Part D with public worries and anxieties and confusion, what strategy are you going to follow to explain this massive bill to people? Because health care is peoples' -- one of their most basic worries in life.
SPEAKER PELOSI: It sure is. It's a personal worry in terms of their health and well being. It's also an economic issue for them as well and I always say, everybody in the country is an expert on his or her health care and how to be able to afford it.
We have an overarching message of affordability, accessibility and quality that the president has put forth. In that framework, we will have the initiatives to help us meet those goals and deeply rooted in those values.
Right now, a bill is being considered and I can only speak to the House, the three committees are working in unison practically with the unified staff. They will have something on the table in a week or two and hopefully most of it will already be scored because at some point, we have to know how much each element of it costs to see what we can afford and then how we pay for it. It will be paid for. And that challenge for us is to relate what we are doing here to the lives of the American people and how this makes a difference to them.
But we're very excited about it, whether it's about prevention and wellness, which is the important part of this, investments in scientific research, that we can have personalized, customized care for Americans with investments in technology so that we have a common record for all people to be on it, whether it's investments and community health centers, to reach out to achieve -- as many people being involved as possible because that's hard and community health centers will enable us to do that, whether it's having the resources to have sufficient health care providers at every step of the way.
We will be able to explain the bill to the American people once a mark comes forward and then open -- Congress will work its will and people will make suggestions and we will have a product that will meet the president's values, meet the needs of the American people, be paid for and make America healthier.
Q Madame Speaker, the public plan or government plan, whatever you want to call it, is it your belief that this is central, you know, an essential element of health care reform? Can you have effective health care reform without a public or government plan?
SPEAKER PELOSI: Well, let me say -- at the health summit the president was asked this question by Senator Grassley and you may have heard him. He said, don't you think that having a public health plan is unfair in terms of competition with the private plans?
The president said I think a public option is a way to keep the private sector honest. That -- and we want to achieve just accessibility, quality and affordability so that all Americans have access to quality health care. He then said, if you have another way to do that, put it on the table. And that's where we are. Everything should be on the table.
From our perspective here, though, there is strong support for a public option right from the start, and there is also full support for having it be a real competitor, not something that has an overwhelming advantage. Of course, it's not for profit, and it doesn't advertise, so it has -- it doesn't have some of the overhead that the private sector has.
Already, just the thought of having a public option has sort of eliminated words from the health insurance glossary of "precondition," "portability" -- everybody seems to be subscribing to the idea that we shouldn't have a precondition in order to get -- eliminating you for health insurance.
This is -- this is what we have come to do. Three chairmen have asked that Chairman Dingell be the author of this bill. Every year since he has been here, he's been the author of universal health care. Before that, his father was. When he was a young member of Congress in the '60s, he gaveled Medicare. He gaveled down the Medicare bill. Very few Republican votes, by the way, on Medicare; very few Republican votes. So we've heard the same concerns before.
But it is -- it's a pretty -- as I say, this is a life work for many members of Congress, and it certainly is a responsibility for all of us. This will happen. We told the president we'd have a bill by the end of July, that it would be paid for, and that's the course of action we are in.
And I commend our three chairmen -- Chairman Rangel, Chairman Waxman and Chairman George Miller -- for working together to eliminate any turf challenges that occurred in the early '90s -- '93/'94 -- and to facilitate this improvement in the lives of the American people.
Q Madame Speaker, will the Senate -- (or House ?) accept the Senate-passed tobacco bill barring unexpected amendment adoptions in the next couple days?
SPEAKER PELOSI: When we see the bill, I can give you a more definite answer. But from what I have seen so far, I believe it will be possible for us to accept their bill and send it right on to the president. We're talking about the FDA tobacco bill.
Thank you all very much.

OMG! How hot is Zoe Saldana here, please? I never thought Zoe had such a great body (she always seemed to be too much on the skinny side for my taste). The actress strut her stuff in a sultry Jasmine Di Milo Fall 2007 mini dress which had a nude underlay and black sheer criss cross black panels on the entire dress.
Zoe completed her sexy rocker look with smokey eyes, wild hair, chunky gold accessories and to-die-for Giambattista Valli Spring 2009 sky-high stiletto heels. So friggin' sexy. I am almost sure this look will end up in my "Best of 2009 Red Carpet Fashion"-list.

Most Helpful Girl
See, the cool thing about questions like this? No matter what yr answer is... you'll always be right!
If you WANT being a man to be "unfortunate"... then, unfortunate it will be.
If you WANT it to be fucking glorious... then, it will be fucking glorious.
Look dude.
I COULD sit here and bitch about how men are "no-nonsense" and "no-fuss" while we're just "bitches".
I COULD sit here and bitch about how the majority of male beauty factors are absolutely under yr control, while the majority of female beauty factors are largely matters of heredity and raw fuckin' luck.
I COULD sit here and bitch about how no one in ANY professional context will EVER gossip about "omg what was that man wearing?" and mb even make career-altering decisions accordingly... whereas we deal with that shit constantly.
I COULD sit here and bitch about how the dating game needs to be a quick-draw street hustle for us, because our fertility runs out *fast*... while you all can take yr sweet time, grow older with "character", and still be regarded as "in yr prime" at age 40-45 if you do life the right way.
I COULD sit here and bitch about how sex and dating can sometimes be terrifying things, because of the innate strength differential between women and men -- and even more terrifying because men are so fucking cavalier about that differential, like it doesn't even exist. Until it does.
I COULD sit here and bitch about how we face conflicting expectations of career and family, while the straight-and-narrow path for men is pretty well manicured.
I COULD sit here and bitch... all fuckin day.
I could absolutely decide that to be a woman is to be miserable, disadvantaged, and put-upon.
And... I'd be right!
I'd be totally miserable, disadvantaged, and put-upon!
That's no way to fucking live, is it. Fuck no it's not.
I'd rather focus on other stuff.
Stuff like how people generally trust me -- especially around children -- and don't have wary instincts to distance themselves from me until they've run 10,000 tests for perv-proofing.
Stuff like the greater freedom I have in society to express emotions, versus how men are expected to be stoic, impassive, and one-face-all-the-time.
Stuff like women's greater life expectancy, greater social interconnectedness, and higher quality-of-life ratings in general.
Stuff like the awesomeness that is women's fashion, and the way throwing on a new outfit is like throwing on a new day and a new personality.
Stuff like30|30|0
multiple orgasms that never endddddd omggggggg
Stuff like feeling my children grow big inside me, and giving birth to them, and nursing them from my own breasts, and feeling my own body change through all of these things along with theirs, and just being *connected* to my children in a way that only a mother could be.
…Basically, all the things that are AWESOME about being a woman.
You get me?
If I focus on THOSE things… then… poof! Being a woman is suddenly pretty fucking awesome dude.
So… Yr homework assignment, should you choose to accept it, is this:
Think of every possible ADVANTAGE you enjoy as a man.
My intention here isn't to hold yr hand or give you an answer key — but, you could start by taking that first list and just turning it around. Then go from there.
Focus on THOSE things.

@lightbulb27 I have found myself for the most part but getting there is a long road with obstacles.
I understand, that everyone is different and different kind of things work for different people.
Yes, that's the kind of pressure I get. Upon getting those, I remain silent to remain pure, to remain myself and to remain on my own track, not the one's, that are shoved onto me.
So I see both genders have it equally difficult in different ways.
I shall keep going my own way (not in reference to MGTOW). However I will be the first to walk my own path as nobody has ever walked it before... unless I spot some clues that convince similarity on my course, it will be a good sign either way. But for now, I'm on my own.

No, we don't have it too bad, but it is a tough environment.
It isn't easy for women either.. look at all the girls online and on this site looking for LTR's or whatever and they can't find them. the men aren't trained, and they are suffering. Men are suffering as well, single men and married men.
It's just a messed up state in society since values have declined and family units have eroded.10|10|0

Microexpressions on CBS's "The Good Wife"
The science behind reading microexpressions is not something that most people are aware of. It wasn't until 2009, when Lie to Me began airing, that more people developed some sort of knowledge or interest in the subject. Since then, the subject of deception detection has appeared in the plot lines of several shows.
On the January 18, 2011 episode of CBS' The Good Wife, a law firm hires a microexpressions expert (Mr. Medina) in order to assure that they are persuading the jury. While it's great to see our line of work being recognized in the media, it's quite disheartening when they make a bit of a mockery of the field, as they do it this episode.
For one, they mockingly refer to the expert they hired as a "jury whisperer," akin to the "ghost whisperers" that claim an ability to communicate with the supernatural. People who are trained to read micro and subtle expressions are not mind readers. They may be able to detect others' emotions better than the average person, but a lot more work is involved if they want to figure out what exactly their emotion is tied to.
Here is a clip of a portion of the trial, followed by the "expert" and his analysis: http://www.cbs.com/primetime/the_good_wife/video/?pid=MkrAKn_eORkqZzxK8E6ZntYVeJl_9nN1&vs=Clips&play=true
Mr. Medina accurately states that there are seven universal emotions. These emotions, called the basic emotions, consist of anger, contempt, disgust, fear, happiness, sadness and surprise. It is accurate to say seven basic emotions, because the corresponding facial expression of emotion is portrayed the same way across all people of all cultures, ages, and genders.
Mr. Medina then talks about universal and directed disgust. As we stated earlier, it is difficult to deduce exactly what a person's emotion is corresponding to just by looking at them. While the writers and actor do a good job in creating a character that sounds like he knows what he is doing, not everything he says is accurate.
In another part of the episode (we were unable to obtain a clip, but you can find this section in the full episode at around 23:00,) Kalinda talks to Mr. Medina as they are observing the jurors during a break. She observes that he is "very selective" about his cases, and that he only picks ones that are easy to predict. When Mr. Medina counters with "nobody complains," Kalinda retorts that people "want to believe in magic." While Lie to Me can sometimes make what we do look like psychic readings, the study of facial expressions is really a science. Since The Good Wife is a popular network television show, people who saw this episode may have been led to believe what they wrote into Kalinda's dialogue. Admittedly, Mr. Medina does counter back, saying that what he does "isn't magic," and that "people are as predictable as the tides, as trainable as pets." Would you agree with Mr. Medina's statement? Or do you think his work (and our work) involves "magic," as Kalinda says?
The following clip shows the verdict, which the "expert" predicts incorrectly. Again, how realistic would it be for him to instantly predict the jury's verdict by looking at them? Furthermore, in both the last clip and the clip before it, there isn't any real focus on the jurors' faces. We understand that The Good Wife does not focus on deception detection like Lie to Me, but showing the expressions of some of the jurors would have added a little more drama and realism to the story.
It's always refreshing to see the type of work that we do getting some attention. We understand that most shows won't get everything correct; they are television writers, not scientific journalists.
Since Humintell is comprised of researchers who study this science daily, we are more critical and tend to catch things that others would not, and feel that inaccuracies do need to be pointed out.
However, we do hope that more and more people continue to develop an interest in emotion recognition, so it is always exciting to see the topic in the news or in entertainment.
2 responses to "Microexpressions on CBS's "The Good Wife""
A friend pointed out this episode to me, and I watched it online. My comment was that "of course the expert was wrong about the verdict – he was wrong about virtually every clue he read, so the conclusion was obvious." I honestly considered that that was the point, but I realized that's probably too subtle to be mainstream.
I was very happy to see the skills addressed, it's a definite step forward. I hope other shows continue to build on the science, and come up with great scripts and outstanding acting.

I have been a trial consultant for 34 years – so – I didn't cringe at this one nearly as much as I cringed at the trial consultant on the first season of DAMAGES who had sex with the witness she was preparing on a desk. While wearing a little black dress. Oh – and drinking scotch. At least by the END of the episode of THE GOOD WIFE the biggest nay-saying attorney became somewhat of a believer in what the microexpression trial consultant brought to the process of trying the case. Television shows are NOTORIOUS for horrible portrayals of trial consultants. Just chalk up another one.

Have you ever wondered what your real purpose or calling in life is? Wouldn't it be wonderful if you were a prodigy of some type: like a pianist, mathematician, scientist, gifted athlete, or even a priest or pastor. But most of us plod through life doing something we fell into at an early age. Then we gain responsibilities and get stuck in those professions for the rest of our life. Find out what it is like to actually discover your calling in life at a later age and then act upon that calling with all your gathered knowledge and inherited gifts and skills. Robert McCabe spent a lot of his adult life with careers that he fell into for money to support his family. He didn't hate his profession, but he felt there was always something missing. Then one day, after McCabe was semi-retired he was struck by a mental lightning bolt. He suddenly KNEW what his real purpose in life was to be. McCabe goes after that purpose with all his might and skill (The Destruction of True Evil). McCabe learned skills though out his career. They served him very well in the rooting out and destruction of evil beings in the world. He also discovered he possessed hidden gifts to help him with this true purpose in life. Join McCabe and watch what finding your true purpose in life could entail. It is sometimes terrifying and heart wrenching. He MUST always make the right decisions as witness, judge, and executioner of Evil.
My Review
I finished this book today and I couldn't get into the book. As I was reading it I just kept hoping that it would be over soon because it was no interesting to me in the least. I found that odd though because I usually love books like this one but I just couldn't get through the book. It is super easy reading and I know that there are people who would enjoy this book I just wasn't one of them.
FTC-Received a copy for this book for me review. The opinions are 100% mine. I received no other compensation.

do you know if your HDTV has a digital tuner or ATSC tuner?
if your not sure, tell me the model number and I can find out.
It you do have a digital tuner, make sure the TV is setup for Antenna not cable and scan for new channels in the menu.
you sould not have a fuzzy picture with digital antenna, but you might need an outdoor version.
I am going to disconnect cable this week. I unplugged my Samsung High Definition Tube tv from the cable and plugged the tv into an outlet (using a surge protector) I connected my Radio Shack High Definition Antenna to watch tv without the cable and it is fuzzy. I was told to move the antenna around and move the tv around. I didn't know I would have this problem. I am discontinuing service with cable because I don't watch cable tv. I don't think this is a resolveable issue, but would appreciate any input.

reminds of what happens when you cut class and hind in the wrong place and catch your older sister who was only 16 then get banged by the land lords cuzin
he is magnificent. I would love to suck his huge, hard cock. I'd first start at the tip and then take it all in. Then I would ride him very slowly, gyrating with my teen boobs bouncing.
Some of those older men have very large cocks on them and they sure know how to use them.
she's hot as fuck, but god she's boring to watch. She acts like she'd rather be doing something else.
My Aunt's bf was older than me and I thought he would never keep up with me.Man could he fuck with that big unit of his,he just wouldn't go soft and right after he came he'd start pumping me again and his big balls were right full of juice.
My large old cock gets so damn hard reading those comments from Jennifer, Kristy and moist of how they would fuck an older guy...

On Love
The All You Need is Love Project is a movement to inspire more love on this planet. The more we come together, the more love we can share. Join the revolution here!
Our monthly tradition of having a love free-for-all topic is next! Post anything your heart desires about love next week. The only requisite is that you share your love with the rest of us.
Hello all! It's my favorite time of the week to talk about love. It ain't no secret that I am a Beatles lover. I mean after all we had a Beatles wedding and used the Beatles to announce our little Camdie was coming into our lives. They've even inspired this entire love movement!
You may ask why I am so crazy about the Beatles. Well, the answer is simple: Love.
Mutual Beatles Love
My posts are currently pre-scheduled as I am taking time off to be a mommy. I've enlisted the help of my bloggy friends (cue Ringo Starr & The Beatles song) to write some guest posts for you lovelies. They'll be contributing throughout this month of April. Please show them some love by reading their guest posts and also visiting their awesome blogs. Love these ladies! I'll still be reading your comments from time to time, but my responses will be delayed. Not to worry, though. I have planned some quality content for you in my absence. I plan on returning at the end of April with lots of heart updates.
Guest Post: Kimberley @ HappyPrettyBlog
Hi ShuGar lovers! I'm so happy to be visiting today from Happy PrettyBlog so that Carmen has a chance to soak in that new baby smell and enjoy this time with Mr. ShuGar and their sweet ShuGar Boy! It brings me right back to only a little over a year ago when my own son Ben was born! What an amazing and beautiful time it is!
I wanted to share with you just one of the many reasons that I love Mrs. ShuGar so much and something that we have in common. We both have a big love for The Beatles! This love could border on obsession and if time travel were possible, I could just picture the two of us dancing along in the front row of a Beatles concert together! Oh my gosh, that would be so amazing!

My Life in a Nutshell
I'm the oldest of 5 girls, NO BOYS! My dad still took us 4-wheeling 7 camping often – though I admit I don't like either of those activities. My mom did an in-home daycare, so I grew up with LOTS of kids, childcare courses and 'parenting' experience. I'm a member of the Church or Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (LDS/Mormon).
Family Home Evening Planner Printables
I actually met Hubby in 2005 on Myspace (does anyone remember that?) and through the internet became best friends. Of course, we didn't agree to meet in person because – HOW CREEPY!!! Until we realized we had a mutual friend and worked it out 😀 You know the quote by Dr. Suess "We are all a little weird and life is a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love." Yup, that's us!
Why I left my Husband – and you should, too!
Since we're into 'embracing your inner nerd', and to keep my kids a little privacy despite this site, they all go by their Avengers names on here. Our oldest, Black Widow, is 9 and such an artistic, intelligent bundle of smiles and sweetness!
We always wanted TWO kids, so we decided to get pregnant in 2009. Surprise…TWINS!!! And boys, to boot! Adding Thor and Iron Man, now 6 years old, to our family really adds the adventure – but we love these lego-building, hero-loving, car driving, Star Wars obsessed boys to pieces.
Since our life needed MORE surprises (note the sarcasm), when the twins were almost 18 months old, I gave birth to our FOURTH (and last, we made sure of that with some snippity-snip on Hubby) child: Hulk! He's such an energetic, snuggly, off-the-walls imaginative boy that tells the best stories ever.
I love my kiddos, and wouldn't trade them for anything – them and Hubby are my LIFE! Plus, they keep it interesting.
Some random facts about me….
I say FABULOUS. Often. And when I do, this is how I hear it in my head:
So whenever I say it in my posts, imagine me saying it just like that.
I love to travel, especially cruises! Good food, relaxing, adventures, new places, fun people….yes, please!
I get more excited about the next Avengers or Star Wars movie than I do about Twilight *gasp*
I hate cleaning, yet clutter and dirt drive me INSANE! It's a lose-lose situation.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the TV series Once Upon a Time and Bones!
I have many short-comings as a mom, including:
What you'll find at Busy Mom's Helper
Crafts & DIY Projects
Easy & Delish Recipes
Parenting , Home Management, Life
Travel Destinations & Tips
Printables, Party Plans & More!
Ultimately, everything I do is for my family!!!
History of the Blog
The reason I began Busy Mom's Helper: I wasn't born with the personality to be a stay-at-home mama. I loved working, loved being all 'professional', and loved acting like a 'grown up'. I love my kids more than anything, and am grateful that I am ABLE to stay at home, because right now, for our family, that's what my kids need. However, I started losing pieces….my identity, MYSELF.
It started small, a few recipes here and there. I then started crafting, and that progressed. I LOVED IT! But more than that, I was ecstatic that people actually LIKED what I was sharing. It pushed me harder, and I wanted to share things that were helpful, fun, unique, and something my readers would appreciate. They were showing me their love and support, so the least I could do was my very best!
Now this is my full-time job, that I do FROM HOME so I can still be the stay-at-home mama my kids want and need right now. But I also have this, it gives me joy, helps me have my own identity along with Mommy, and let's me socialize with other FABULOUS (remember how I say that) people.
This is my outlet, my playground, the way I can really be myself without worry. So grab yourself a Dr Pepper and chill awhile!

Whilst Cheryl Cole was scrapping like a back-street alley cat, Dannii Minogue was class personified on Saturday nights X Factor.
The Australian judge wore a warm chocolatey Gucci Pre-Fall 2010 halter dress with a gold necklace detail.
I would've been tempted to add a gold belt to this dress, but the dress worked perfectly without it.
Her effortless grown up style continues to impress. There is nothing try hard about Dannii.
Her look was accessorized with Annoushka earrings which totally perfected the look, plus a Talisman Gallery ring and Giuseppe Zanotti heels.

– for Diana Michener
I am sitting in a lawn chair
In the shade of a large maple tree
Preparing to work on a poem
When a box elder bug
Making its way
Among the grasses at my feet
Captures my attention
With the slow and deliberate movements
Of its filament-like jointed legs
As it ascends and descends
One green blade and stalk after another.
And it occurs to me that if it is true
In quantum physics
That the observer changes
The phenomena being observed
Could it also be true
Of the ordinary observations
Of our daily lives?
For instance
Could I somehow be altering
The path or the pace
Or even the ultimate destination
Of the little black and red Boisea trivittata
Simply by looking on?
And if the insect
Bewildered by the mysterious force
That seems to have taken control of its limbs
And its will
Looks up and sees me looming nearby
Could being the object of its gaze
Be the reason I am setting aside
My notebook and pencil
My ambitions and anxieties
And arguments with existence
To spend the rest of this afternoon
Tracking the odyssey of Pilgrim Box Elder Bug
Across the emerald-dark lawn?
By Buff Whitman-Bradley
Buff Whitman-Bradley's poetry has appeared in many print and online journals. He is the author of several volumes of poetry, most recently Cancer Cantata, poems written during his treatment for cancer in 2016. He lives with his wife Cynthia in northern California.

On April 22, in the second edition of the 2010 SI.com MLB Power Rankings, the top four teams -- in order -- were the Yankees, Rays, Twins and Phillies. On Sept. 9, exactly 20 weeks later, the top four teams of the Power Rankings are, yet again, the Yankees, Rays, Twins and Phillies.
The cream always rises to the top, eh? There were reasons to doubt, however. Though the Yankees and Rays have remained near the top all year, the Phillies struggled so much they fell as far as No. 17 in early July while falling to third place and six games back in the National League East. Soon thereafter the Twins fell to third in the American League Central and to No. 16.
But as the season enters its final three weeks, those top four teams that entered the year with the most talent are now playing the best baseball, separating themselves as heavy favorites in October.

The Yankees look to protect their No. 1 ranking with tough road series against playoff-bound teams, first the AL West-leading Rangers and then the Rays, with whom New York is battling for the AL East and the wild card.

Aroldis Chapman is, in fact, human as they got to him and his 100+ fastball for three hits and a run Monday afternoon. But as the buzz remains around the young Cuban phenom, the Reds have another young pitcher who may be even more critical to their postseason run and that's Edinson Volquez. After returning from both Tommy John surgery and a 50-game suspension for a failed drug test, Volquez was good in four starts and terrible in his other four starts, so he was sent to the minors to regain his form and his confidence. Now he's back in the majors and could fill a key role. With Mike Leake on the DL with shoulder fatigue, Travis Wood eventually facing a limit on his innings and Homer Bailey pitching inconsistently, it's possible Volquez may be needed to make a playoff start.

Buffalo Chicken Meatball Subs Will Always Hit The Spot
When wings alone won't cut it.
Meatball subs are a classic crowd-pleaser; so are wings. Which means this mash-up is the right thing to make when you have guests over for the game and the oven's monopolized: All you need is a toaster oven to bake the meatballs and toast the subs (we used our Krups toaster oven for this recipe, which serves 3 to 4).
Total Time:
Level: Easy
Yield: 12 meatballs (3-4 subs)
- ½ c. hot sauce mixed with 2 tbsp. melted butter
- 1 lb. ground chicken
- ½ c. panko bread crumbs
- 1 large egg
- 1 small stalk celery, sliced thin and finely chopped
- 1 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tsp. garlic powder
- kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- hoagie rolls, sub rolls, or ciabatta
- ¼ lb. sliced Pepper Jack
- Make the meatballs: Preheat oven to 400°. Add half the hot sauce mixture to a medium bowl with chicken, panko, egg, celery, parsley and garlic powder. Season with salt and pepper and mix together well; if mixture is too wet, add a bit more panko. Form 12 golf-ball-size meatballs. Place them on a parchment-covered baking sheet and bake until cooked through, 18 to 20 minutes.
- Make the sub: Toast roll, place two slices of cheese on bottom half, and place 3 meatballs on top. Place two more slices of cheese on top of meatballs and return to oven to melt cheese. Top with remaining hot sauce mixture before serving.

Steven states that he grew 7 inches over the summer break. When he first meets Ron and Marshall they ask him how tall he is. He states that he's 6'1, which means he would have been 5'6 when he graduated high school.
Steve loses his virginity (to Lizzie) in the pilot episode.
Hal: Oh I'm so sorry that I worked and supported you for twenty years, I should have been learning to salsa dance so you wouldn't feel dead inside.
Marshall: Hey, do you know how to do laundry?
Rachel: Hey, could you do me a favor? Could you hold my hand?
Marshall: Yeah. Sure, sure, sure.
Rachel: It's just... I'm having a panic attack and it usually goes away if I hold somebody's hand and I tell them I'm having a panic attack.
Marshall: OK. OK.
Rachel: I got... I gotta get outta here.
Marshall: Uh, no, no. It's OK. It's OK. Um, I'll distract you. Um, I'm studying music. What's your major?
Rachel: I don't know yet. I haven't decided.
Marshall: You haven't picked a major yet!?
(Frantically) God, what are you trying to do to me?
(Steven is talking to a group of people at their party)
Steven: So I said, 'Mountain Dew? Mountain Don't!'
Lloyd: What's your major?
Steven: Oh, I'm like undeclared, for the time being. You know, just checking stuff out, kind of.
Steven: What are you guys playing? What's the game?
Marshall: We can't tell you, because then we couldn't play anymore.
(Steven enters his dorm room, where Ron and Marshall are drinking beers)
Marshall: Wattage is what matters. It's the wattage.
Ron: Amps are completely meaningless now. It's wattage.
Steven: Hey, how's it going?
Marshall and Ron: Hey!
Ron: Hey, you live here?
Steven: Yep, I think so.
(Marshall points at Ron, telling him to drink)
Marshall: I told you. I told you.
Ron: I know. OK, OK.
Jack: You and a girl?
Steven: Yeah, exac.. Yeah, why not? Exactly because, because, these girls at college, they don't know me, they don't know who I am.
Jack: Yeah, they don't know that you threw up on the bus in fifth grade.
Steven: Exactly!
Jack: Or that you had to have your finger reattached after that wood shop...
Steven: The point is, I'm tall and handsome, and I've gained weight and I've, like, finally got a fashion sense. Man, it's like the beginning of a whole new era.
Steven and Jack are at a barbershop. Steven points at a picture of a hairstyle he wants.
Steven: Yep, that's the one I want.
I grew 7 inches Senior Year. Like, I don't know how tall you are or whatever, but, like, man, everything from here up... it's all new. 60% of all people meet their spouses at college. That means my future wife could be, like, seated right beside me.
Hal: (Rubbing his exposed belly) I have the gut of an 18 year old.
Ron: (Rubbing his own exposed belly) I have the gut of a 48-year old.
Lizzie: Do you have a condom?
Steven: I have eight condoms. (Steven laughs nervously.)
Lucien: (Reading his poem to Rachel) If you enter my room full of tears, my hope is you leave with a smile.
If you enter my room glowing with love, my hope is to share in your love. So when your feeling low, just knock on my door and say hello.
Ron: Hey Mr. Karp, Where you going? You should party with us, huh?
Hal: Oh no, I got to go.
Ron: Oh, what your wife will get made if you come home late?
Hal: Where's the keg?
Ron: Steven, you're supposed to ask ugly guys. Hot girls, ugly guys okay ugly.
Steven: Well, um, uh.
Ron: He's going to take all our women.
Hal: Hey, nice fancy haircut. You should join those Backstreet Boys. Watch out ladies.
Ron: There's a scrunchie on the door.
Lloyd: (shocked) And I'm not in there.
Lloyd: Why didn't you take her salsa dancing?
Hal: Because I didn't want to...
Lloyd: Hal, it's never too late to make a new beginning. Go call her.
Steve: (crying) I'm sorry, I'm just so happy to be here.
Lizzie: Really?
Hal: Now Steven, I don't want you to be concerned by this, but your mother is considering the idea of a divorce.
Ron: (to girl) So I guess we live on the same floor. (no response) Well I do, I don't know where you live.

Tuscany is located in central Italy and stretches from the Apennines to the Tyrrhenian Sea. Its landscape, artistic heritage and important cities, first of all Florence, make Tuscany an unquestioned protagonist of world tourism. In this region, nature has many different facets, starting from the coast that alternates long and sandy beaches, like the Versilia beach, with rocky cliffs and steep headlands. The islands of the Tuscan Archipelago, surrounded by Mediterranean vegetation, a crystal-clear sea and rich seabeds, are peerless. You can admire sceneries of uncontaminated nature in the Apuane Alps and in several protected areas, like Orbetello lagoon, which houses many species of migrant birds, including pink egrets. However, the most typical sceneries of the region are those that merge the beauty of nature with the millenary work of man. The amazing Gulf of Baratti and the sites of Vetulonia, Vulci and Pitigliano guard necropolis and vestiges of the Etruscan civilization, while Roselle and Cosa evoke memories of the Roman Age. Medieval villages, historical towns, castles and defence tems, rural churches (the so-called 'pievi') and beautiful abbeys, like the one of Sant'Antimo, are scattered all over the territory and their profiles stand out in the landscapes of the Crete Senesi, Orcia Valley, Garfagnana, Chianti and the Maremma. Finally, Tuscany is full of spas: Montecatini, Saturnia, Montepulciano, Monsummano and Bagno Vignoni, which offer relaxing holidays thanks to their thermal waters and well-equipped facilities for all types of treatment. The provinces of the region are: Florence (regional capital), Arezzo, Grosseto, Livorno, Lucca, Massa Carrara, Pisa, Pistoia, Prato and Siena.
