I just bought a W3653 last week and I've 3-4 questions. First, I'm 70 years old, had open-heart surgery 20 years ago which pretty well zapped me of any short-term memory and I am basically computer illiterate. I can't remember two thongs at a time and I must write down everything. I need to know how to get my speakers working, do I have to subscribe to some type provider to play DVDs, does this machine have a word processor, and how do I print an e-mail or anything else???

This is very surprising to me and many of you folks I think; Is this data really reliable?
I checked the freeserve search, it is complete listing of Overture PPC result, followed by Google result;
It seems MSN are much more popular than Google?

No. Why is MSN UK in there twice?
The search engines listed are indeed in the top 10 - but where are the .com engines which are widely used by UK surfers.
However, MSN, Freeserve, Yahoo and AJ are all very popular in the UK - and so is Google. Different markets will give a different ranking in usage though.
This is the report I received from Kellysearch, ( they quote source from hitwise Feb 2003 ):
Rank:Search Enging::Market share
1. Freeserve; 31.67%
3. Google UK; 11.3%
4. MSN.co.uk; 10.72%
5. Yahoo!UK&Ireland; 7.44%
6. Ask Jeeves UK; 5.21%
7. iFidn Freeserve; 4.3%
This is very surprising to me and many of you folks I think; Is this data really reliable?
Without actually knowing the origins/sources of the data that went into the report or what it was meant to show, the simple answer is no.
The Google/MSN popularity seems to be a bit low. The problem with statistics like this is that they can be used to prove just about anything. The dangerous thing is that it specifically quotes Google UK and seems to omit all the other Googles (Google.com/ie/de/fr etc). This narrowing of Google tends to skew the figures. Also the MSN figures may have been skewed in the same way. Thus Freeserve looks artifically high. However it it was based on domestic UK traffic, then narrowing the results like this may make sense to the report creators. Realistically, it would also require the origin IPs of the hosts being referred by the search engines to be grouped. It really depends on what the figures are meant to prove but it is important not to rely on such a simple list of figures in isolation.
1 Google UK
2 Yahoo UK
3 Ask Jeeves
4 Freeserve
5 Altavista UK
7 Tiscali
8 The Arndale
9 Lycos UK
10 Yell UK
These are ranked by the number of people who use them during a month, not by the number of searches performed. The Arndale is a slight exception here, since they appear as a pop-under for a number of popular sites.
So while it may appear that MSN gets a lot of traffic, only a proportion of that will be related to MSN as a "search engine".
Thanks for your own ranking. When you say Google UK do you including people search with Google.com also?
I am also confused with the report presented by Kelly search, because MSN got two positions: MSN UK and MSN.co.uk, and I really do not know the difference.
Email or other internet activity are not included as the statistics is only for search engines.
These stats look dodgy to me!
The figures for my websites are as follows:
google.com - 45%
google.co.uk - 31%
uk.yahoo.com - 8%
yahoo.com - 7%
msn.uk - 6%
ask - 1%
msn.com - 1%
uk.altavista.com - 0.5%
others - 0.5%
We ask all our customers how they found our website and I do not recall anyone mentioning freeserve!
I can see a pattern emerging, with exception of ALLCAM's findings.

More than 35 Air Force and Army ROTC cadets paid tribute to the nation's veterans and POW/MIA soldiers with a 24-hour vigil over the weekend.
Held at the Court Street entrance to Baker University Center, the observance began at midnight Saturday. At the top of each hour, a red rose was dedicated to those who have served.
"This vigil was a great opportunity for our cadets," said Air Force ROTC Cadet Tyler Peery, Detachment 650 honor guard commander. "It put them in the public eye, remembering our POWs and MIAs, and spreading a message to the community, a message that says we will not forget our comrades who are lost and/or suffering at the hands of an unknown foe."

If You Want To Avoid Anti-Choice Harassment, You Need To Opt Out
A funny thing has happened when it comes to women's rights and reproductive choice. The more women are cut off from having access to safe, legal abortion, the more anti-choice protestors' rights seem to trump everyone else. The right to protest outranks the right for young children to attend their schools without coming face to face with gruesome graphic posters. The right of pharmacists to refuse drugs outweighs the right for women to have the prescriptions their doctors write for them, even if those drugs in some cases may be saving their lives. The right of "sidewalk counselors" who sue over not having enough access to women arriving for abortions, so they get their chance to "talk them out of it."
Anti-choice activists have a variety of means for harassing and intimidating women away from reproductive health clinics, some even going as far as to bring cameras to record the patients coming and going. And in all cases, this is considered a legal form of harassment that women are expected to have to simply put up with if she wants to terminate a pregnancy.
So how does one get out of being harassed by anti-abortion advocates? According to police in one recent case, a woman has to be sure that the group is well aware that the activity and contact is unwanted. Yes, you have to actually tell them you prefer to no longer be harassed. As Andy Kopsa reports, earlier this month a group of "prayer warriors" in Wisconsin sent out an "All Points Bulletin" via email, desperately searching for a pregnant woman that they had spoken to on the street outside of a Planned Parenthood, a mother of two children already who walked away crying after speaking to the "warriors." The email included a very detailed physical description of the woman, and asked recipients to let them know immediately if they see a woman that matches it.
A group of total strangers, sending out an email with a woman's identifying physical characteristics, outing her as seeking an abortion and asking people to please find her and send them information so they can continue talking her out of the abortion she was looking for? How could that be anything but harassment and violation of her privacy?
Yet it's not, according to local police. At least, not unless the woman specifically told the "warriors" to have no further contact with her. Kospa writes, "'According to [Police Chief Nobel Wray], it is legal to send such an email but could be considered harassment if the individual who is the subject of the email told the so-called "sidewalk counselors" she didn't want further contact from them. She could have filed a complaint regarding the email.'"
Running to her car, shouting at the protesters isn't considered making it clear she didn't want further contact? Do women need to begin wearing signs that say, "I do not give you permission to harass me or send emails that may personally identify me?"
A right to freedom of speech trumps the right to not be physically or emotionally accosted by strangers? Only if you are a woman seeking a termination of an unwanted pregnancy.

Only a Californian Would Love the Snow This Much.
I was so excited to travel to Utah in December because most of the time that means snow. While it only snowed an inch or less we still had a blast playing in it. I even found some yummy snow to eat. I love to eat snow...in fact I crave it!
Look! Icicles!
A sprinkler head that froze over.
My snow angel.
Sebbie running away. We were playing a game of tag.
Sebbie is so fun to play with!
They are trying to run away from us.

Put Things Where You Use Them
For the longest time I had my Zout Stain Remover Spray under my kitchen sink. That is where I keep my laundry detergent and fabric softener so it made sense to keep it there. However, my laundry hamper is in my bedroom and that is where I end up using my Zout. So I moved it to my bedroom and it makes life so much easier. Is there anything in your home that you always use in one room of your home but keep in another. If so consider making the switch.

I always love to see the Temple all light up during Christmas. Since I got married in December it is even more special than before. We decided we would try to take a picture of us at the Temple every year on (or near) our anniversary.

The Résumé Doctor Is In
If you are one of the legions who've been axed, downsized, or dissolved, you may find yourself hovering over your PC, frantically updating your résumé. If it has been a decade or so since you've done this, you'd be wise to apprise yourself of some new trends swirling about in curriculum-vitae land. It can make the difference between cranking out a punchy masterpiece -- or a jargon-ridden loser certain to never see the dark side of an HR department scanner.
Take the summary section. Never heard of it? It's the practice of bulleting key achievements underneath your name. Some of these headliners blather on for nearly half a page before moving on to work experience. But anything longer than a few sentences is seen by some as a sneaky way to hide big gaps in employment or ultra-short stints. Moreover, long summaries can leave the reader with no idea as to when and where your achievements occurred.
Even if you knew that, consider this: Nearly all the top headhunters and outplacement specialists we consulted said 90% of the résumés they see are riddled with errors or misrepresentations, including "sales manger" for sales manager, "skilled in massaging" for messaging (this from a Wharton MBA), and "on contract with the state" (in jail).
That's why you might want to consider hiring a résumé doctor. Such a specialist can help you craft a document that teases employers with your juiciest career achievements without destroying your allure. Think of it as a movie trailer for your career. Its purpose is to get you in the door so you can answer questions face-to-face -- not on an overloaded sheet of paper.
There are legions of c.v. surgeons out there. You can find them on the Web, at outplacement and headhunting firms, or even on the bulletin board of your local coffee shop. They usually charge anywhere from $40 to $200 for a quick re-do to $5,000 for the five-star treatment, which includes cover letter assistance as well as hours of hand-holding.
But be careful. Résumé revamping is a largely unregulated field rife with sham grammarians, sloppy formatters, and pricey "career-repurposing" poseurs who promise access to "hidden job markets" that don't exist. One alleged expert -- recommended by a top-five executive headhunting firm -- sent us a prized makeover performed for a Wall Street information-technology executive. Underneath the candidate's name was a short summary that began: "Proven track of increasing operational efficiencies." When we pointed out that the word "record" was missing, the résumé doctor defended the sentence, only to eventually cave: "We don't write in perfect sentences," he explained.
That's not to say that all 21 of the résumé doctors we encountered were a disappointment. Among those we felt helped craft the clearest, most data-filled résumés: Mike Jeans of Boston outplacement firm New Directions; Jack Downing, managing partner at Cleveland-based executive headhunting firm WorldBridge Partners; John Lybarger of Career Architects, based in Denver; and Tamar Shay of Roslindale (Mass.)-based Shay & Tannas, which specializes in "inoculating résumés from environmentally or biologically induced ADD."
So how to go about screening for stellar assistance? First, ask for samples of previous work. The average manager will spend but a few seconds scanning a résumé. So start with the superficial. Have the margins been pushed to the outermost reaches of the page to accommodate muddled thinking? Exemplary résumés breathe with ample white space to make key information easy to absorb. Unless you're a senior executive, avoid the now rampant practice of extending it beyond a page.
Unfortunately, the less-is-more philosophy is the hardest thing to execute. An easy formula: bullets that billboard your accomplishments. A good résumé doctor will elicit your inner braggart by grilling you for context and quantification: How big was the division you were running and by what percentage and in what time frame did you increase profits? Was the economy mired in a recession at the time? "I had one guy who had added $3 million to the bottom line, and he didn't even have it on his résumé," says Downing.
Avoid meaningless phrases ("innovative problem solver with business acumen and emotional intelligence required for achieving 21st century business imperatives") and schlocky testimonials ("project viewed by some as virtually impossible!"). Focus on the past 10 years of your employment history. Jobs held prior to that can be summarized at the end.
Another trend: the inclusion of personal information. The only such details that belong on your résumé are those that buttress your case. Saying you jog is irrelevant. But including that you ran the Boston Marathon might show your perseverance and an ability to operate under pressure. So might clocking 1,300 hours in a Phantom F-4 during the Gulf War. Does your job require heavy networking? If so, a low golf handicap is a major plus.
Once your résumé doctor hands the polished makeover back to you, give it to three of the most anal-retentive people you know. Challenge them to find a single mistake.
In the end, it's likely that no one -- not even the boss who hires you -- will read your résumé word for word. But it must be flawless nonetheless. Especially in a job market like this.

All over the country, in schools, in workshops, offices, and showrooms, girls are earning, some quite as much as their brothers, friends, and husbands, some much more, some only a little less. The demand for "equal pay for work of equal value," incorporated into the Peace Treaties as a fundamental principle of economic settlement, does not merely concern the pay roll of a Government or private firm. However little the principle is yet practiced, however hard the feminists have still to fight before they see the ideal of the Peace Treaty incorporated fair and solid into the four corners of the Statute-book or the budget of a private company, the thing is coming. Women have gone out into the labour market. They are asking that they shall be paid according to their achievements, not according to their sex, and certainly one day they will get what they demand.
Meanwhile the ethics of social encounter reflect the economics of an earlier epoch when all women were theoretically dependent upon masculine finances.
It is not an immemorial custom
The system of masculine entertainment came in with the industrial revolution, the introduction of factory labour, the divorce of women from domestic industry, and consequent subjection of ill-organised unskilled labour in mines and factories and private houses. The woman who worked had no money to spare for entertainment. The middle-class woman who did not work had no money at all. Again and again we encounter stories of the extraordinary situation of women living in large houses, with armies of servants, tremendous meals, and wardrobes full of clothes, and not two sixpences to rub together for their own use.
When women possessed no money, men, of course had to pay for them. And the men liked it. It made them feel strong and protective and benevolent and gave them most agreeable sensations of superiority. These are excellent psychological reasons why it is more blessed to give than to receive. A waitress, recently asked why she always handed the bill to the man in a mixed party, said, "Oh, but it is the man's privilege to pay."
The only sensible way out of the difficulty is to drop this sentiment. If some women still think that any man, however ill he can afford it, ought to pay all bills for entertainments, it is time they learned the new code. If some men feel affronted, insulted, and dishonoured every time a woman pays, it is time that they dropped their ridiculous pride and prejudice and learned to share and share alike.

In Wild Awake, Hilary T. Smith's exhilarating and heart-wrenching YA debut novel, seventeen-year-old Kiri Byrd has big plans for her summer without her parents. She intends to devote herself to her music and win Battle of the Bands with her bandmate and best friend, Lukas. Perhaps then, in the excitement of victory, he will finally realize she's the girl of his dreams.
But a phone call from a stranger shatters Kiri's plans. He says he has her sister's stuff—her sister, Sukey, who died five years ago. This call throws Kiri into a spiral of chaos that opens old wounds and new mysteries.
Like If I Stay and The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Wild Awake explores loss, love, and what it means to be alive.

C.C. Baxter is an up and comer in the cavernous sea of anonymity that are the workers employed by Consolidated Life Insurance. Baxter's popularity among some of the more influential executives is not due to any particular talents or aptitude or abilities—though he is certainly a hard worker with an amiable personality. No, Baxter's star is on the rise due to one particular gift he has to offer the all-male executives capable of giving him a helping hand.
His apartment.
The apartment is small, though decorated with a flourishing taste. Most important, however, is that it has a bed that those executives do not have to pay for when they engage in trysts with their mistresses.
Baxter's rising star seems to be a star in name only, however. In addition to the indignity of the executives who make promises of advancement that never seem to arrive, Baxter must also face the accusatory looks from his neighbors who view the constant stream of woman going in and out of his apartment with a distinctly 1950's form of prudish distaste. The ultimate indignity, however, may be those cold, lonely nights when Baxter does not even have his bed to sleep in and must gave up longingly at the light in his window.
The great irony of C.C. Baxter's life is that despite the fact that his neighbors think he is a callous playboy, he is in reality one of the loneliest men in the Big Apple. Making matters even worse is that he pines for the pert and pretty girl who runs the elevator where he works. Making matters even that much more worse is that he is constantly being told that the girl—Fran Kubelik—is committed to being hard to get. So hard to get that it seems she has never been gotten.
One day after catching a cold by being forced to spend a cold, rainy evening outside, Baxter starts getting a little fed up and starts a complicated process of juggling the existing appointments of execs lined up to use his apartment. All he wants is just one night to have his own apartment to himself. Then he suddenly finds himself being called into the office of one of the bigger execs, J.D. Sheldrake who questions him about his popularity among the other executives. Baxter thinks he is on the verge of losing his job when in reality Sheldrake wants in on the game. Even though his cold is pretty awful and he's been promised advancement before that never came through, Baxter is simply too enticed by the power that Sheldrake possesses to actually come through and agrees to let him use the apartment that night.
Knowing that he won't be able to go home anyway, Baxter works up the courage to invite Fran the elevator girl out to play that night. She agrees to meet him after finishing some business earlier in the evening. That business turns out to be a meeting with Sheldrake in a bar in which she informs that she can't date a married man anymore. Sheldrake responds by telling Fran that he is planning on asking his wife for a divorce. While Baxter waits for Fran at the theater, Fran arrives at his apartment with Sheldrake.
That disappointment soon fades as Sheldrake actually comes through with Baxter's promotion as promised. He struts through the impersonal rows of endless anonymous workers until some of the execs threaten him with retribution because they have been shut out of their use of his apartment. Baxter gleefully ignores them because he knows he's got a major in with Sheldrake. What he still doesn't know is the identity of the woman Sheldrake keeps taking to his apartment.
The Christmas office party makes a major turning point. Fran is there, much to Baxter's delight, but she has just been informed by Sheldrake's secretary that her boss makes a habit of promising to divorce his wife in order to continue affairs before he finally gets tired and moves on to the next. And she should know because she was once in Fran's exact place. While Baxter tries to chat her up, Fran pulls a compact out of her purse and it looks exactly like the one left behind in his apartment one night after Sheldrake used it. When he learns that Sheldrake plans on using the apartment after the party, Baxter goes to a bar and gets mixed with up with a pretty stranger at the same time that Fran is growing increasingly hurt and depressed by the offer of a $100 Christmas "gift" from Sheldrake.
When Sheldrake leaves, Fran finds Baxter's bottle of sleeping pills and tries to kill herself, passing out unconscious on the bed. Baxter returns home with the girl from the bar, finds Fran, kicks the girl out and tries to get his doctor neighbor to help revive Fran. The next morning finds Sheldrake at home looking for all the world like the perfect husband and father enjoying Christmas morning. The scene is interrupted by a phone call from Baxter informing him of Fran's condition, but he refuses to talk to her. Baxter and Fran play cards until she falls asleep.
When she next wakes up, she wonders if anyone would even mind if she died and Baxter assures he would mind very much. She wistfully wonders why she can never fall for a nice guy like him. The next morning finds Sheldrake firing his secretary who is planning to meet with his wife and spill the beans. Meanwhile, Baxter and Fran are having a spaghetti dinner and talking about their romantic problems. A series of misidentifications and misunderstandings involving Baxter and Fran, Fran's brother-in-law, disgruntled executives and Baxter's neighbor results in his getting a black eye, but proving himself a hero for stepping in to sake Fran's reputation.
Baxter shows up to inform Sheldrake that he's ready to Fran off his hands, but Sheldrake beats him to the punch by telling him his wife has kicked him out. After a plan to sow some oats with other girls, he will eventually reunited with Fran. Baxter also learns that he has been promoted all the way up to Sheldrake's assistant with his own key to the executive washroom. Come New Year's Eve, however, when Sheldrake asks for the key to his apartment, Baxter says no. Later on he packs up his stuff, including a gun. Fran shows up at the New Year's Eve party with Sheldrake, but when she learns that Baxter would rather give up his great new job than allow Sheldrake to use his apartment with her, she finally realizes that it is C.C. who really loves her and not Sheldrake. As she runs to the apartment, she hears what sounds like a gunshot and, crazed with the idea that Baxter has shot himself to death, pounds desperately on his door. The door opens to reveal the sound was merely that of a champagne cork popping.
Baxter expresses his love for Fran as they sit down to enjoy another game of cards.

He's only hitting .199 so far in the Midwest League (low A), but his speed is unreal. He's already got 40 SBs!!! In the last 10 games, he has 7 hits and 6 walks, but has still managed to steal 14 bases. With a K-rate approaching 30% and no power, his bat will be his biggest obstacle. It will be interesting to see if he can reach 100 SBs this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2.4.22 gets i810_rng not found on multiple systems
i810_rng: RNG not detected
When I try to inmod or modprobe the module(currently in /lib/modules/2.4.22/kernel/drivers/char called i810_rng.o.gz)
I get this output:
Using /lib/modules/2.4.22/kernel/drivers/char/i810_rng.o.gz
/lib/modules/2.4.22/kernel/drivers/char/i810_rng.o.gz: init_module: No such device
Usually I get this when I am trying to insmod a driver for something that I don't have physically installed. Is that the case here? If so, then is there someone familiar enough with Slackware to know where in the rc scripts this insmod, or modprobe is occuring?
A similar issue with a different PC where it can't find the joystick that it is trying to install. Joystick? I have used grep -i 'i810_rng'(or whatever the module is) /etc/rc.d/* to try and locate the where the system is trying to autoload the offending module, but the only thing that it comes up with is a commented out part of /etc/rc.d/rc.modules where it shouldn't be trying to load it in the first place.
Any help, helps.

I can't get your sound card to work (hell, I can't even get my sound card to work) but I can get rid of that annoying message and help your system boot faster. Just edit your /etc/hotplug/blacklist file and add the name i810_rng to the sound or audio or whatever it is called section.
This will at least get rid of your error messages.

In recent years, the number of attacks by Israeli settlers against Palestinians has doubled. Families who have already been made refugees are forced to endure attacks by settlers. This petition calls on the Israeli government to protect civilians.
Primary education is the basis for eliminating poverty, and it is the path to peace and security. Sadly, too many children in Gaza are denied this basic human right. Currently, 90% of schools in Gaza run on a double-shift basis, and yet more than 100 new schools are still needed. Due to the overcrowding and lack of new schools, UNRWA had to turn away 40,000 kids from kindergarten in September…

The 2014 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week has attracted more than 3,200 tech-product exhibitors from around the world — including a number of Minnesota companies with tech gear to show off.
A few homegrown highlights at the show, which runs through Friday:
Imation, the Oakdale-based company known largely for its data-storage products, unveiled a portable flash drive with two Universal Serial Bus prongs instead of the usual one.
In addition to a standard, full-sized USB prong for plugging into desktop computers, the 2-in-1 Micro USB Flash Drive adds a Micro-USB option for plugging the flash drive into smartphones and tablets. A pivoting design provides access to either prong.
Due early this year, the flash device will cost $30 for 16 gigabytes of storage, $40 for 32 gigs and $65 for 64 gigs. Details are at bitly.com/Imation2in1.
Polaroid, a once-mighty and historic instant-photo company that was long down on its luck, has been trying to stage a comeback and made a big splash at last year's CES. It is back this year with another flurry of eye-catching tech products, including an assortment of low-cost tablets.
Others include the long-rumored Socialmatic camera — a digital camera designed for sharing, either via a built-in printer or directly to online social networks. It said at CES that it will team up with the camera's creator to bring the product to market later this year. Polaroid typically doesn't design and manufacture products like this, but makes licensing deals with other companies.
Additional Polaroid cameras at CES include a new line of action cams. One of these, the C3, is a 35-millimeter cube with a wide-angle lens, waterproofing and HD-video capability.
Polaroid also was among the TV vendors showing off 4K HDTVs, which get their name from a resolution that is four times that of a standard flat-panel TV. Details are at polaroid.com/ces-2014.
Polaroid is still based in Minnetonka after breaking loose from the tainted Tom Petters business empire (Petters bought the brand in 2005).
Select Comfort, the Plymouth company known for the adjustable Sleep Number beds, showed its new X12 model with the claim that it is "probably the best bed in the world."
The X12 is more adjustable than earlier models, tracks users' sleep patterns on a smartphone and tablet app, includes a high-tech remote control, responds to voice commands and boasts upgraded materials. Details are at sleepnumber.com/x12
QFO Labs used CES as a victory lap of sorts.
The Bloomington company, creator of a toy quadcopter and its companion high-tech remote, failed in a 2012 Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign to finance the project. QFO Labs pressed ahead anyway, and its toy drone, dubbed the Quad Fighter, now is offered on the Brookstone site for $100.
Details on the flying toy and its Mimix controller are at qfolabs.com.
MakerBot, the 3D-printer manufacturer owned by Eden Prairie-based Stratasys, unveiled new Replicator-branded models.
These include a space-saving, consumer-focused Mini Compact 3D Printer, a full-size Desktop 3D Printer and the industrial-grade Z18 3D Printer.
The Desktop 3D printer is available now. The Mini is due in the spring. MakerBot will begin taking orders for the Z18 in the spring. Details are at bitly.com/MakerBot2014.
Bracketron, a longtime maker of mounts and stands for phones and other mobile devices, has added action cams to its product portfolio.
The Edina company has announced a series of mounts for users of GoPro cameras and other action cams used by sports junkies. These include a strap mount for vented helmets, a chest harness and an all-purpose clip mount.
Details are at bitly.com/Bracketron2014.

Congratulations to 29-year-old Nepalese woman mountain climber Chhurim who scaled the 29,035-foot summit of Mount Everest on May 12, 2012, and again a week later on May 19.
Chhurim, who like most Nepalese sherpas uses only one name, said she plans to climb other high peaks in the future.
Everest has been climbed by nearly 4,000 climbers but women climbers make only a small portion of that number, according to the Nepal Mountaineering Association.
What a source of inspiration for everyone, specially for women.
Looking forward to reading more about you, Chhurim.

I'm back from Aruba and it was the perfect getaway, so much so that we extended our stay for a few more days defeating the purpose of a "mini-moon" (a short honeymoon vacation). It was just too good to leave, we relaxed at the beach, celebrated, did snuba (a combo of snorkel and scuba), shared romantic dinners, and even found a decent salsa club to get our dance on.
All in all, it was great...except for one thing that kept reoccurring. From the airport all the way to our destination, often enough, I kept seeing old married couples getting into heated arguments over the silliest things. For example, one woman dropped her bags and stormed off because her husband asked her to hurry it up because they were running late. Then, I overheard a man telling his buddies, "One minute they love you, two seconds later they hate you" referring to his wife. The last straw was a heated argument I witnessed between a couple about whose fault it was that they were running late to the airport which ended with the hubby telling his wife to "Shut-up!"
Maybe I'm just hyper-aware of married couples now that I'm a newlywed, but it scared the s%#t out of me! I just don't understand how two people that love each other and vowed to honor one another can allow their relationship to get to such an awful place when they are probably more polite to a total stranger. I understand how sometimes when you're with someone for so long, it's easy lose sight of the reason you fell in love and cease to appreciate your partner, but I feel it is up to the couple to be conscious of this and make an effort. As traumatizing as it was to witness this on my honeymoon—I swear it felt as if I was in a movie—I think it's good for us to know what we DON'T want to be like 15 years from now and realize that a marriage is work and you have to be willing to put in the hours, just like anything else.
Anyone have any advice for a not only a lasting, but loving, marriage?

Life We Lead
- Artist: Far in Legion
- Genre: Rap/Hip Hop
- Release Date: 1/5/1999
Bio: Hip Hop Recording Artist JBR (Joseph B. Ruiz) Born October 18th 1977 & Raised in the Sunset park Brooklyn, NYC. JBR has established himself in the Rap Industry since the Mid 80's doing rap music was a way to stay off the streets. But you had to be on the streets to rap about what you saw or were a part of everyday life. I was arrested five times for fighting in the streets and got caught for the sale of marijuana to an undercover cop Just a fine of $150 dollars, But Growing up in Sunset Park was rough I mean like any other neighborhood with an over populated low class income hood you have your random killings, stabbing carjacking stuff like that. At one point I was living in a basement under a 24 hour store for about 7 months my bed was this little folding bed next to cases of Pepsi bottles & can foods things you would find in your local corner Bodega store so you know I wasn't ever gonna be hungry, but yeah it was ruff growing up. I left school in the 7th grade never got the education like a lot of the other kids but I wasn't dumb just not the smartest kid around but I had a lot of street smarts that's all I needed to survive on the streets. I never done any drugs it wasn't for me. I was always into Rap music. I would just write rhymes all the time with my boy Frank he lived in Brownville, Brooklyn NY we would just everyday talk about buying this little ass Tascam 4 track mixer that we saw at some Electronic store on Fulton Street, down town Brooklyn, So we bought it for about 3 hundred dollars and we would just be treating this thing as if was a Million dollar Mixing board in size it was only 5x by 5x inches all around we would treat it like it was a million dollar studio we had this Roland drum machine and a little Casio keyboard man we were like making beats writing rhymes rapping with head phones on with one ear piece of the head phone plugged into our mic input, putting the song on tape cassettes, (DEMOS) we had made a bunch of demo tapes but was embarrassed to play it in front of other people. Lol but I grew out of that I was just shy to play my music. But as the years went by in 1991 I met Mark Wahlberg aka (Marky Mark) in the city with my homeboys. I thought Marky Mark was going to be like this big head ego rapper type of guy looking at you like I'm better then you. But in reality he was nothing like that he was this real down to earth dude he was like just one of the boys he got mad respect from me and my boys. So after that night I had gave Mark my demo tape that I had in my Glove compartment, again remember I was embarrassed to let anyone hear my music but after a day or two Mark called me up asked if I wanted to go with him to LA. He said he liked the songs I was like hell yeah so he helped me get a passport mind you I never left Brooklyn or been on a plane ever in my life. So I remember being on a plane with Mark he would tease me the planes going down as a joke. But from that day on we became mad cool we were doing a lot of crazy things. I chilled at a photo shoot with mark when he was shooting his Kalvin Klien Underwear adds it was learning the business from all aspects. Well now were in LA working on some recordings with the great Prince Ital Joe for his album " Life in the Streets" Feat, Marky Mark and then a Tour was set up for Europe so Mark got two of his boys from Boston Ace & Brizz B and we recorded "That's the way we Like It" & "Feeling Irie" in LA at Fabian Cook's home Studio, Fabian produced the some songs he is a great producer. So we were getting ready for the European Tour. And that's when I met Rasta Phil for the first time in 1995 on tour in Germany, ever since then we clicked as a team and kept doing what we love do making music Till this day. We all had a good vibe together all of us. We were like family every family member has problems with one another but we always showed One Love! I never wanted to do anything else but music. We have a track that we did as a group called "One Love" Ace, Brizz-B, Jbr for the movie "FEAR" Staring Mark Wahlberg and Reese Witherspoon which was the best thing ever for me to hear a song you did and hear it in a movie was the coolest shit ever. So a lot of my accomplishments go to Mark Wahlberg for the support and helping me full fill my dreams. Now were in the year 2009 and I still continue to make music. JBR & Rasta Phil open up Two shows for Donnie Wahlberg in Toronto, & Montreal Canada in 2009 for Donnie new single "I Got It" & 'Rise & Grind" So I continued to keep Working on new projects with Rasta Phil who is featured on my new single "Grind It" & "Ruff & Wicket" all Produced by Marius Simiti & Adrian Stavian. Chour's is Sung by Janelle, with her amazing voice, "One Love" was Produced by Fabian Cook in LA, All of JBR's Lyrics are written by JBR & Copy written by ASCAP, for JBR Production's Inc.

> Click to view play synopses and writer information.
Playwright Samuel D. Hunter will also be in residence during the conference working on a new play. No stranger to NPC, Mr. Hunter's A Great Wilderness was selected for development at the 2013 conference. He began his theatrical career at the O'Neill when he was invited to NPC 2005 by Artistic Director Wendy C. Goldberg during her first season leading the conference.
In addition to the seven selected writers at this year's conference, Goldberg also announced that she will direct the readings of David Mitchell Robinson's The Imaginary Music Critic Who Doesn't Exist. Trip Cullman will direct Halley Feiffer's I'm Gonna Pray For You So Hard. Further directing and casting decisions will be announced at a later date.
The National Playwrights Conference is the Eugene O'Neill Theater Center's founding program. Under the artistic leadership of Ms. Goldberg, each play will undergo the O'Neill's signature development process, employing acclaimed professional creative and support staff, including directors, dramaturgs, actors, and designers to bring the six new plays to life for the first time. Playwrights spend three weeks in July developing and presenting public staged readings of their work during NPC's 50th season.
The six selected works were chosen from a record-breaking pool of over 1,200 plays received through the O'Neill's open submissions process, which allows any playwright – with or without agent representation – to submit. Readers from across the country chose plays based on merit, without any authorship information.
Speaking about the season, Ms. Goldberg commented, "This was the most competitive O'Neill season yet, with over 1,200 submissions sent in to us. I am very excited to bring these six artists to the National Playwrights Conference for our 50th anniversary season. It is an incredibly dynamic and eclectic group of storytellers whose voices are at the forefront of the American theater. It is a privilege to develop their work in this, my 10th season as Artistic Director."
Almost sixty plays developed during Goldberg's previous nine seasons with NPC have gone on to world premieres. The Nether by Jennifer Haley, developed during the 2011 NPC, was awarded the 2012 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize, and received a critically acclaimed world premiere production at the Center Theatre Group in Los Angeles in 2013. Lost Lake by Pulitzer Prize-winner David Auburn, developed at the 2013 conference, will receive its world premiere production at Manhattan Theatre Club in October 2014. A Great Wilderness by Samuel D. Hunter, also developed at the 2013 conference, received its world premiere at Seattle Repertory Theatre in January 2014. Lauren Yee's Samsara will have its world premiere in 2015 at Victory Gardens.
O'Neill Executive Director Preston Whiteway remarked, "I'm thrilled to welcome these six/seven writers this season, our 50th anniversary. They represent the best of new playwriting today. While construction truncates our 2014 season, I look forward to the new housing and rehearsal space accommodating even more exciting new writers and projects in the future."
The National Playwrights Conference runs from Wednesday, July 2 through Saturday, July 19 at the O'Neill's campus in Waterford, Connecticut. Box Office ((860) 443-1238) and online ticket sales begin Wednesday, June 11; advance ticket sales are available to O'Neill Members beginning Wednesday, May 21. Schedules are subject to change.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — An Associated Press review of campaign finance filings has found Ohio Republican Josh Mandel's campaign committee has yet to report receiving an insurance check for a vehicle disabled in a March wreck.
The absence of a reported payment months after the accident adds to questions surrounding the crash. It involved a vehicle owned by Mandel's 2012 U.S. Senate campaign months after he'd lost the election. His state treasurer campaign waited until June 30 to make a rental payment.
A campaign representative couldn't immediately provide the status of any insurance claim.
The State Highway Patrol reported the 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee was disabled in the March 5 accident near Toledo. Mandel's campaign has said it was totaled.
Campaign finance filings through June 30 contain no insurance reimbursement.

Quick and simple to use, they save time for the important things in life like diving!
Traffic light coloured-coded to highlight best practice in dive planning, the coloured boarders allow divers to easily identify the status of the dive at a glance. The primary decal (green) allows all the necessary information to be recorded, it includes; maximum depth (with two deep stops), run times, gases carried (both primary and deco) and a way-point check. The user friendly grids record depth with the corresponding run time written below, making your dive plan simple to read and understand at depth. They are sized to fit a standard wrist slate.
Deco-Decals are digitally printed on high quality gloss vinyl, with a durable transparent varnish. They can be written on with a waterproof pen and wiped clean afterwards with a 'magic sponge' or similar product. The decals can be used multiple times before they need replacing.
Building on the success of the V2 decals, the new and improved layout of the Series III range allows the STOP time and RUN time to be recorded below the corresponding depth. The amber and red decals are now divided into two separate decals meaning they are smaller and fit more easily onto your wrist slate. The Series III decals now has four deep stops available, with your gases arranged in the logical order of use - the primary gas being followed by the deco gases from left to right, making the Series III decals our clearest, easiest to use and most comprehensive decal sheets yet.

I wanted to be near Kyoto Station, and this place was perfect for that. It's right across the street (less than 10 min walk), on a quieter road with some nice restaurants nearby. The ryokan itself is older and dated, and rooms small, but but...More
"We shared a bathroom and had no problems with access. Our room was super quiet and I think all the rooms..."
"We decided to pay for the luxury of a private bathroom, not a necessity, but a nice luxury."
"View on the patio and bassin with fishes. From there you have also a very good free wifi signal in your room!"

TULIA — Swisher County authorities are still searching for an inmate who walked away from the jail Monday morning.
Frankie Mancha Alvarez, 27, was collecting trash with another inmate at around 9 a.m. when he disappeared after getting permission from the jailer to take a trash bag outside the jail, said Swisher County Sheriff Emmitt Benavidez.
"We feel someone picked him up," Benavidez said, but he did not know exactly who may have helped Alvarez or where he may be staying.
Alvarez was in jail on a parole violation and has a charge pending for sexual assault.
Benavidez said Alvarez removed part of his jail uniform before escaping, so he does not know how the inmate is currently dressed.
Alvarez is described as 5 foot 8 inches tall and 150 pounds with black hair and brown eyes.
Anyone with information on Alvarez's whereabouts are urged to call the Swisher County Sheriff's Office at 806-995-3326 or the Texas Department of Public Safety office in Plainview at 806-293-2508.

'Spontaneous Smattering' offers frantic fun for playwrights and actors
'Spontaneous Smattering' offers frantic fun for playwrights and actors
Published 1:47 pm, Tuesday, June 16, 2015
Ideas race from page to stage when local talents write, rehearse, design and perform a play, all within 24 hours, at a Spontaneous Smattering competition.
Eight groups will participate at the next "episode" of the twice-a-year play festival, with thespians who make it to the finish line unveiling their creations at 7 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. Saturday, June 20 at The Company OnStage.
"Everyone gets a free shot (of alcohol) at the door - if you want it," said Christine Weems, the event's artistic director, "and the audience will vote on awards, like 'best script,' the coveted 'best in show' and 'cast that looked like they had the most fun.' "
Having fun is a priority at Smattering gatherings, along with meeting other thespians, said River Oaks-area resident Mynor "Eddie" Rodriguez, 41, an attorney who often acts in the Smattering events.
"The most fun was probably dressing up as a bear," Rodriguez said. "I'm not a small guy, but I got fixed up as Prince Valiant with bear ears and overalls."
"The writers only have 13 hours to write a play after drawing their casts out of a hat and being given several parameters," Weems said. "The directors have a mere 101/2 hours to rehearse a show with their actors. The actors frantically memorize like the wind and try to find costumes and props in time to perform that night."
More Information
Want to go?
What: "Spontaneous Smattering Episode 6 - Return of the Cone Man"
Where: Company OnStage Theater, 536 Westbury Square
When: 7 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. Saturday, June 20
Cost: $15
Information: Call 281-972-5897 or visit www.conemanrunning.com
Rodriguez said, "It's a good time because of all the effort Christine puts into it. She has great ideas and knows how to put people in circumstances that make them stretch. Quite frankly, I think she does this so she can sit back and watch and laugh at us."
Weems, 39, who also practices law, began the 24-hour play festival in New York City at Phare Play Productions, where she met Rodriguez and her husband, playwright Michael Weems. After getting married in 2008 and having two children, the Weemses moved to Spring, near where Christine Weems grew up and graduated from Klein High School in 1993.
"This is our sixth Smattering in Houston," she said, "after doing seven like it in New York."
Michael Weems, 36, is a stay-at-home dad who usually writes at a more leisurely pace, even though his writing schedule "is limited to very early mornings and late nights," he said.
However, he enjoys participating as a writer in Smattering festivals.
"It's a very big challenge, with the clock ticking down on you and the curveball of creative elements," he said. "You smile and wing it, and the actors help a lot."
At one event, Weems wrote a 10- to 15-minute play called "The Fondness for Aquanet" that has been produced again several times.
"The genre was '80s teen movies and one line had to be 'On a day like this, I want blank, blank and blank.' "
His main character, Kevin, a teenager who was going to a prom, filled in the blanks to say, "On a day like this, I want wining, dining and a ride home afterwards since I won't have my license for a few months and Mom would have to drive me."
His wife said the scripts that usually command the biggest audience response at Smatterings are comedies, and the more outrageous they are, the more popular they are. The festival is hosted by Cone Man Running Productions, which Christine Weems, Michael Weems and Eddie Rodriguez co-founded to promote local writers in stage and film projects, but all proceeds benefit the Houston Food Bank. The most recent Smattering raised more than $1,000 and collected 250 canned goods for the food bank.

Hardin-Jefferson ISD implements new iPad program
Updated 8:58 am, Wednesday, October 10, 2012
Tablets and Apple iPads might be improving previously anemic math scores, but it's too early to tell if the devices are helping students prepare for college.
At Henderson Middle School in the Hardin-Jefferson ISD, each of the nearly 170 sixth grade students are pinching and scrolling their way through worksheets and textbooks on their iPads, which they can bring home.
"I can tell you right now, I can learn twice as much and twice as fast with this," said Henderson Middle School teacher Susie Brooks, holding an iPad. "And most kids are the same way."
Modeling off of school programs in Denton and states like Maine and Massachusetts, the district implemented their new iPad program a few weeks ago to reconcile old-fashioned learning with 21st century technology.

Full Product Description
Bringing you all the action of book 1 in the 'Deadly Reunions' series, but with more chilling suspense and a complex romantic plot, 'When A Heart Stops' is the story of Serena Hopkins, Medical Examiner and former high school sweetheart, FBI agent Dominic Allen. The uneasy pairing is thrown together to investigate the serial murders that include one of Serena's former classmates. Could this be a vendetta that includes Serena herself, and is the rekindling romance putting Dominic directly in the killer's firing line?
In a tale that reveals much of what's behind the characters of the book's stars, Serena Hopkins and Dominic Allen, Lynette Eason also gets inside the killer's mind. This second book shows how Lynette's writing has developed from the non-stop action of the first in the series to a level of suspense that's more chilling, creepy and intricately plotted.
Without delivering an overbearing message, the author weaves in a deeper meaning throughout, that blends in and adds to the story, making it a book for anyone who loves romantic suspense, and might appreciate an easy introduction to Christian, faith-underneath, crime fiction. 'When A Heart Stops' is your invitation into a new Lynette Eason suspenseful romance and the perfect excuse to sit back and reread the series opener.
When a Heart Stops by Lynette Eason was published by Baker in November 2012 and is our 25932nd best seller. The ISBN for When a Heart Stops is 9780800720087.

In Brief: Eden Video Transcript
'When A Heart Stops' is the second in Lynette Eason's 'Deadly Reunions' series. Picking up two of the characters from the first in the series, 'When The Smoke Clears', Lynette takes you into the mind of a serial killer, who might be aiming - literally - to end the re-emerging romance between medical examiner, Serena Hopkins, and former teenage sweetheart, FBI agent Dominic Allen. The twists and turns of this suspenseful thriller reveal the true feelings and true faith of all involved.
What readers say:
"When A Heart Stops" is filled with suspenseful twists and turns along with easy to like characters to make it a real page turner. The thing that really stood out with these characters was that they often prayed about their problems."
"The author weaves a meaningful message throughout the story that blends in, and adds to the story. It's not an overbearing message, but is simply a part of who the characters are and a part of their story. I would definitely recommend this book for anyone who loves romantic suspense, even if you don't normally read Christian fiction."
"This book references the first book and characters are the same even though the main focus of this book is Serena and Dominic. There is a subplot in both books that will be wrapped up in the third book. I can't wait to see what happens. This book was well written with interesting characters and plot. It held my attention from the first page and was very suspenseful."
"One thing's for sure, there is enough twists and turns in this story to keep the reader guessing right up until the end!"
Eden Article: An Author Is Nothing Without Friends
Lynette Eason is an esteemed, veteran author within the suspense fiction market. Her books don't just sell well, they sell big. So what's her secret? How does she manage to write so many books with so much rich, spiritual, engaging content?
The answer is easy – she has good friends.
Firstly, every author on the planet has an editor. Their crucial job is to be a second pair of eyes. The author's eyes are creative, wild and imaginative, wondering all over the place and pushing the bounders. While the editor's eyes are focused on the audience, the book's intended marketplace, the competition and the bank balance.
Together they and chop, change and perfect every chapter so the book is well balanced. Both imaginative and grounded.
Secondly, a crime fiction author writes in the world of law enforcement, medicine and organizations like the CIA. So unless you started your career as a junior doctor specialising in forensics, then became the secretary to the head of the FBI whilst training as a Navy Seal in your spare time, your books going to lack accuracy.
But Lynette asked some friends in those respective fields to check over her book, allowing them to input any additional information to add realism and grit to the plot. Officer James Hall and Retired FBI Agent Wayne Smith proof read the law enforcement details. While Ruthie Owens who works at Spartanburg Regional Hospital answered any medical questions Lynette had. So everything you'll read in 'When A Heart Stops' has the voice of an expert behind it.
Every author has intentions when writing their novels. Some dream of best sellers (and a big pay check). Other dream of fame and the red carpet towards the massive award ceremonies. But others simply want to bless their readers, opening their eyes and hearts to their convictions and beliefs.
For Lynette Eason, her intentions shine through from the first page:
"To my wonderful family and friends
I couldn't do this without you.
And to Jesus Christ,
My Lord and Saviour -
And my reason for writing.
I pray people see you on every page!" – At the front of 'When A Heart Stops'.
As a strong believer and a talented author, she uses her God-given gift to serve, minister and inspire faith. Enjoy Lynette's books, because they are for you.
Apocryphal Clues To Christian Romantic Suspense Fiction
The oldest suspense thriller stories ever written are 'The History Of Susanna' and 'Bel And The Dragon'. Both are from the Apocrypha, believed to have been written between 100 and 200 years before the birth of Christ. Its stories are rarely included in Protestant tradition Bibles, but appear as the 'Deuterocanonical' - or secondary canon of scriptures, in Catholic Bibles.
Apocrypha is itself a Greek word meaning 'hidden away' so it is, perhaps, appropriate that the earliest mystery stories appear within these disputed chapters for which no original Hebrew versions exist.
'The History Of Susanna' tells of a beautiful, young, married woman who goes into her private garden and bathes naked. She is spied on two respected judges who threaten that, if Susanna doesn't sleep with them, they'll swear to having witnessed her in an act of adultery; an offence punishable by death. She refuses to be blackmailed, is tried, convicted on their testimony and sentenced to death.
The hero detective in this case is a young man called Daniel. He speaks up for Susanna, winning the right to cross examine the two men. Each man is separately asked the same question: 'under what kind of tree was the alleged adulterous act committed?' One judge answered: 'A mastick tree,' while the other answered: 'An oak.' To quote the text: 'With that all the assembly cried out with a loud voice, and praised God, who saveth them that trust in him'.
Daniel is also the hero of the other Apocryphal mystery, 'Bel And The Dragon'. Now a respected adviser to King Cyrus of Babylon, the two men fall out over Daniel's refusal to worship the official god, Baal. Baal, or Bel, is a huge brass statue where massive amounts of food are daily laid down as sacrifice. Because the vast offering has disappeared from the sealed temple each morning, Cyrus insists that the god's colossal appetite and consumption is proof of his living reality and power.
Threatened with death, super sleuth Daniel resorts to scientific means to prove his case. Before the temple is sealed for the night, Daniel sprinkles a layer of fine ash around the idol and its stash of sacrificed produce. The next morning, telltale footprints in the ash reveal that it's not the idol, but an army of men women and children, that account for the nightly disappearance of meat, wine and groceries. The story ends: 'Then the king cried with a loud voice, saying, "Great are you, Lord God of Daniel, and there is no other beside you!"
Both tales incorporate features essential to modern suspense thrillers: the initial injustice of a crime pinned on an innocent party, and an all seeing detective who reveals how the crime was committed and by whom. Justice follows swiftly. The innocent are redeemed and the detective is honoured. In modern versions you'll find more complex plots, and the additional element of romance. Lynette Eason's detective fiction, as in 'When A Heart Stops', gives you a mystery of the heart as compelling as that of the crime. But you'll find another, deeper connection, between Lynette's writing and her Apocryphal forerunners: they point you to the real author of justice, truth and mercy. Read Christian romantic thrillers and you'll find the same underpinning reassurance: "Great are you, Lord God of Daniel, and there is no other beside you!" – Les Ellison

Not many films begin with a foray into the mysteries of quantum physics with Jude Law giving a layman's version ofthe famous ` Schrodinger's Cat` paradox. Unfortunately it's downhill after that, after Jude Law's ruthless repo man persona supposedly develops a conscience, and embarks on a mission for the good of mankind, which, one has to say, is not particularly successful as it ends in the gory death of large number of ` mankind` . . . No doubt the producers decided to go for a target audience of 12 year old boys with an18 certificate .( DVD sales should do well) A dis appointing film in which it's difficult to summon up any sympathy for the unbelievable characters. Jude Law and Forest Whitakker do their best, but they're up against it with a screenplay which fails to deliver a convincing plot. Time out's rating of one star is about right.
While I thought the film wasn't Citizen Kane, it was worth it just for the lung outfit joke in the multistorey carpark.
Not the surreal cult classic style of Repo Man of'84 but overall a decent action movie for the unsqueamish - See if with a low expectation and you may find the blood and brutality mildly entertaining 3 stars.
