|Because of the increasing number of individuals
cooking and manufacturing meth in homes, many homebuyers are unaware of the
dangers and liability in purchasing a meth house. Several states are finally
beginning to tackle this problem and require the information be disclosed to
potential buyers home-buyers and renters to check online for busted "meth
houses" so they don't move into a former contaminated drug lab.

How about doing a spell to empower yourself to overcome the taunts and trick that these two 'bullies' are dishing out. Instead of looking at the offence, look at the more passive ways of deflecting their negativity. Wear protection wards, sigils, or charms.
Just a few suggestions. Find a better alternative than thinking attack vs attack.
"The second u curse someone it will come back to you in 3 folds. And... you probably go to hell afterwards and probably reincarnate with disabilities if u curse people too much."
1. It won't come back "the second you curse someone". If Karma worked like that, no one would dare to do anything bad anymore because the consequences would be immidiate and people would be frightened.
2. Belief that something cmoes back 3 times worse is called the three fold law, not Karma. Karma doesn't include the 3x part.
3. You can't go both to hell and reincarnate with disablities. Either you get an afterlife or you reincarnate so you can't use both.

It would be nice to catch fainted pokemon but then legendaries would be an easy catch

1) Irl, if you were to KO someone, they'd become dead weight, making them harder to capture.
2) In the anime, where they CAN catch fainted Pokemon, they usually don't gain EXP (what they do have regarding experience is very loose nonetheless), so in the game, you can't have both, one or the other.
As some people already said, It'd remove the challenge from the game. HOWEVER! In pokemon BW There was a capture-rate timer that was very helpful, Say.. If you spent a whole bunch of pokeballs trying to catch a pokemon only to fail misserably, Randomly the pokeball (Regardless what kind of pokeball) would make a different sound and instantly catch the pokemon (Regardless the pokemon, Including legendaries). This feature should've been kept in BW2.
Also, it's still in B2/W2.
3DS Friend Code: 3153-4608-8374
Friend Safari: Steel(Ferroseed, Forretress, and Bronzong)
Or if you try and catch it when it is knocked out and you fail, somehow, it will have half health: keeps it somewhat harder since pokemon could knock you out and you can try and catch fainted pokemon
Critical capture is more common than you think, Unlike shinies. Finishing white 2 and not seeing a single critical chance speaks for itself. I'm just saying...
The pokemon world of created by a giant magical llama and 10 year olds can defeat and tame creatures with god-like powers. Your question is invalid.
;655; ;697; ;671; ;717;
It would be so funny to see a practically dead Pokemon just lying on the ground on your screen as you throw things at it.
But no, it would be way too easy to catch things, and what would happen if you didn't want to catch it?
Mortals will face the wrath of my RAYQUAZAR BEAMProud to be a GreySkyShipper
hmm... when I restarted my diamond game again and try to capture the legendaries I really couldn't capture them -.-
on my black 2 I captured zekrom with a single quick ball. why is this? are there better odd's in the newer games to catch pokemon?
My fc: 4871 5236 8426
Dare to battle me?
I play smash bros too!
sadly I'm not online much...
Though beating Zekrom to a pulp, then reviving him and battling N with it might intimidate him a little :P
Is sleep condition is better than the others for catching pokemon? Or just the same.

everyone i know is pregnant but me
i feel like everyone i know is pregnant but me!! i've been TTC for a few months, does anyone else feel this way! anyone have some tips or support on TTC faster. thanks hugs.
I know EXACTLY how you feel, we've been ttc for a year this month, and NOTHING! In that time I've had 2 friends have babies and 2 more are pregnant now, Just yesterday I had to fake a smile and congrats for a beaming mommy to be who is a dear friend then I came home and cried my eyes out. Hugs to you, Hope it happens soon!
Yep. We were TTC 2 years this month. We have stopped TTC now because DF says he doesn't want kids right now. I think the stress of TTC has gotten to him. :-( I can't help but still want a baby badly, and it hurts a little everytime I see a pregnant chick or a baby. Wish I had some magic advice for you, but I'm fresh out of ideas. LOL. GL to you though!
Same here. Everyone is either giving birth or pregnant right now. I've been ttc all year. =/
hugs! This is my first month and it still seems like now that Ive started everytime I turn around someone I know whether it be someone I work with, a friend of mine or a relative is now either announcing a pregnancy or giving birth. It really doesn't help that my emotions have been out of control this past week or so.
the same thing this way! my 16 year cousin is preganant i just found out and im 1 plus years of trying for second baby and nothing for me i feel the way you do..keep ur head up.

Adrian Teo did an admirable job of trying to defend us OECs, but this is a
hard room to please...
But one item that he seemed to be taken to task is the common complaint that
"kinds" in the OT is rather vague at best, not aligning well with modern
classification categories.
But I have found that the prime unit of evolution theory, "species," as in
"Origin of the....," is often more than a little flexible, especially when
defending evolution.
I mean, kids, and gullible adults, are told that new resistant "species" of
bacteria are appearing every day, this "proving" evolution. But, the
dictionary definition of species, " category...comprising related organisms
or populations potentially capable of interbreeding...," fails when
categorizing asexual organisms. The temptation to equate "strains" and
"species" seem a little too hard to resist, or justify.
But I have found scientists like to put a spin on the definition concerning
larger critters. I had a heated discussion a year ago about some new
species of fish supposedly found in Canada. Trying to stifle this
evolutionist's enthusiasm concerning this new proof of "speciation," I
inquired whether this fish could mate with a member of the species from
which it "evolved." I was told that, for what ever reason, these critters
like to stay with "their own kind." So I suggested trying artificial
insemination. "Oh my goodness, no! Why would anyone want to do THAT?" was
basically the response.
And I hear this rationale over and over...such as claims that many breeds of
dog is of a different "species." When they say that a Chihuahua can no
longer interbreed with a Great Dane, I ask has it been tried using
artificial insemination, with the Great Dane carrying the litter, of course.
The answer was the same as above.
What amazes me is, at other sites, of course, evolutionists tend to try to
come off with a rather "fearing neither man or God" persona, but when it
comes to proving speciation, they seem to claim that if interbreeding is not
achieved through soft music, and a candle-lit dinner, then the results are
unwarranted, illegal, and possibly, invalid.
I would like any comments about this observation.

A few years ago, I was asked to letter the words 'I love you' for their heart lockets and every time I see the lockets featured in an ad (or anywhere) my heart literally skips a beat! Something magical about those three little words!
More things to swoon over from Tiffany & Co. here.

Basic FVWM Configuration
If you've recently set up fvwm and are using the default system.fvwmrc, you'll find that clicking the left mouse button anywhere in the root window brings up a pop-up menu. What you may also quickly discover, to your dismay, is that many of these program items don't do anything, either because the program doesn't exist or is incorrectly set up.
Because of this, you'll probably want to remove these menu entries. Also, sooner or later, you'll install programs that you'd like to add to the pop-up menu. Or you may decide that you want to reorganize the menu into categories, such as Editors, Graphics, Viewers, Network Apps, and so forth. Whatever the reason, configuring the pop-up menus is easy and a huge amount of fun. So let's look at how it's done.
Suppose you do a lot of text-editing or programming and have several editors you enjoy using. You now want to organize the pop-up menu by program category and want to put all your favorite editors under one pop-up sub-menu, called Editors.
For the sake of simplicity, we'll leave out a discussion of using command line options for things such as geometry, foreground and background colors, fonts, and so forth. We'll use fairly simple examples and assume that you can go back later and customize the command line options.
Be sure you've made a backup copy of your current working version of .fvwmrc. After that, load up your favorite editor and open the file used to define the pop-up menus, .fvwmrc. This will include entries such as:
Popup "Applications" Title "Applications" Exec "Wingz" exec Wingz & Exec "Xmgr Plot" exec xmgr -g 780x730+362+3 & Exec "Ghostview" exec ghostview & Exec "Seyon" exec seyon -modem /dev/modem & Exec "SciLab" exec scilab & Exec "X3270" exec x3270 & Exec "Xfilemanager" exec xfilemanager & Exec "Xfm" exec xfm & Exec "Xgrab" exec xgrab & Exec "Xxgdb" exec xxgdb & EndPopup
Your .fvwmrc will probably look a bit different than this, so find the section of the file that defines Popup "name" ... EndPopup stanzas. Without fully understanding how things work, you could probably use an entry such as the above as a template and modify the entries to include the programs you want. What you'll discover, however, is that this isn't hard to understand.
An important point to keep in mind is that you must define sub-menus first, before you define the main menu. The reason for this is actually quite simple: when fvwm starts it reads the .fvwmrc configuration file from beginning to end. If you define the main menu first, it encounters references to menu items (your sub-menus) that haven't been defined yet, and so it is unable to correctly set up the menus. Also, sub-menus can be nested to any depth. Once you have a list of editors to add to a sub-menu, and you've worked out the command line options you intend to use, you're ready to start.
The basic entry for a menu takes the form:
Popup "name" Title "title" Exec "program" exec command & Exec "program" exec command & Exec "program" exec command & Nop "" Exec "program" exec command & Exec "program" exec command & EndPopup
Let's briefly look at each part of the entry. The entry begins with the word Popup and a "name" which is used to refer to this menu itself (we'll see how this is used in a minute when we talk about adding a sub-menu to the main menu). The next line, beginning with the word Title, specifies the title that appears at the top of the menu. Notice that the title is enclosed in double quotes. Next are a series of familiar Exec stanzas, each of which is used to launch a program. This time, however, the word following Exec and enclosed in double quotes is the name that will appear on the menu. A stanza for the xedit editor might look something like:
Exec "XEdit" exec xedit -font 9x15 -g +5+20 &
The menu would then include an entry with the name XEdit: clicking on this would launch the xedit program with the font and geometry options that are specified on the command line. Don't forget the ampersand (&) at the end of the entry.
You'll also notice a line which begins with the word Nop, which, as its name suggests (to some people, anyway), performs "no operation". It does, however, allow you to create separator lines between menu items. Nop followed by a pair of double quotes with no spaces between them ("") creates a separator line. This is very useful for visually separating a list of items in the menu. However, if Nop is followed by double quotes with a space between them (" "), an empty entry is created between menu items instead of a line. Try both and see the difference.
Finally, the reserved word EndPopup is used to indicate that the menu has been defined. Pretty simple, eh? Once you understand how menus are defined, you can easily use an existing menu definition as a "template" for creating one of your own.
One more quick point to mention: it is possible to launch fvwm modules from a pop-up menu. As with the InitFunction entries mentioned last month, these are really quite simple and use the same form:
Module "name" module
For example, to start up the FvwmPager, you would add something like the following:
Module "Pager" FvwmPager
Notice two things: the menu item name for the module can be anything you want—it doesn't have to be the same as the module name. Second, you do not put an ampersand (&) at the end of the command line.

| Every man was once a boy. And every little has dreams, big dreams, dreams of being the hero, of beating the bad guys, of doing daring feats and rescuing the damsel in distress. Every little girl has dreams, too: of being rescued by her prince and swept up into a great adventure, knowing that she is the beauty. But what happens to those dreams when we grow up? Walk into most churches, have a look around, and ask yourself: What is a Christian man? Without listening to what is said, look at what you find there. Most Christian men are . . . bored. John Eldredge revises and updates his best-selling, renowned Christian classic, Wild at Heart, and in it invites men to recover their masculine heart, defined in the image of a passionate God. And he invites women to discover the secret of a man's soul and to delight in the strength and wildness men were created to offer. John Eldredge is the director of Ransomed Heart

Texas A&M vs. Alabama: Johnny Manziel Just Won the Heisman TrophyNovember 11, 2012
With all due respect to Collin Klein, Manti Te'o and Braxton Miller, Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel just won the Heisman Trophy.
All the Alabama Crimson Tide—along with the rest of the country—could do was sit back, watch and appreciate the brilliance of the talented quarterback.
The Aggies knocked off the Crimson Tide on Saturday night in dramatic fashion, coming away with a 29-24 victory.
While this was not a coming-out party for the freshman quarterback, it was his best performance of the season under the circumstances, and it vaulted him to the top of the Heisman race.
Manziel finished the game 24-of-31 for 253 yards and two touchdowns. He also carried the ball 18 times for 92 yards.
He spent most of the day eluding the Alabama pass rush and keeping plays alive with his feet. Very few quarterbacks could have done what he did on this late Saturday afternoon in Tuscaloosa.
The most dramatic of all the plays came midway through the fourth quarter when he scrambled and hit Malcome Kennedy with a 24-yard touchdown to put the Aggies up 29-17.
There was talk leading up to the game that Manziel had not done much against upper-echelon competition, but he certainly proved himself on the road in a very tough environment.
Over nearly two seasons, the Alabama defense has been the best unit in the country. It was exposed tonight for the first time since the 2010 Iron Bowl, when Auburn quarterback Cam Newton had his way with them.
In that game, Newton threw three touchdown passes and rushed for one score in what was the biggest comeback in Auburn football history.
Newton single-handedly beat Alabama in that game, and Manziel is the first player to do that since Newton.
The Alabama loss to LSU last season had nothing to do with a single player and everything to do with the Tide shooting themselves in the foot.
While beating Alabama does not automatically warrant Heisman consideration, with the kind of season Manziel has had, it was all he needed to put himself at the head of the race.
He has now passed for 18 touchdowns on the season with only six interceptions. He also has rushed for over 1,000 yards and 15 scores.
Those are gaudy numbers in any conference, but playing against top-notch SEC defenses, it is hard to argue that Manziel is anything but the Heisman front-runner.
There is still a long way to go, but with the remaining opponents on the Texas A&M schedule (Sam Houston State and Missouri), Manziel should put up some huge numbers the final two games of the season.
If he does that, the Heisman is his for the taking.
Anybody who watched him knock off the Crimson Tide would have to agree.

Analysis of the Induction and Wake Evolution of an Offshore Floating Wind Turbine

AbstractThe degrees-of-freedom associated with offshore floating wind turbines (OFWTs) result in a more dynamic flow field. The resulting aerodynamic loads may be significantly influenced by these motions via perturbations in the evolving wake. This is of great interest in terms of OFWT design, placement and simulation. This study presents free vortex wake method (FVM) simulations of the NREL 5-MW wind turbine of a variety of platforms, operating in a range of wind speeds synthesized platform motion time series. Motion-induced wake perturbations are observed to affect induction. Transitions between windmill and propeller states are also observed. View Full-Text

Author has written 5 stories for Naruto, and Twilight.
I am a college student majoring in linguistics. I love a lot of things and a lot of people. I'm a nerd with a passion for volleyball and ice cream. I have an obsession with all things kpop. I speak basic German and Japanese. I want to learn Korean. My jeans are rarely blue. I'm just over six feet tall and I can tie cherry stems in my mouth. I'm tempted to delete the fics I have posted because the writing is really unappealing (and embarrassingly bad) to me now, but I still get the occasional review from someone that likes them. And as long as someone is enjoying it, I don't mind leaving it up for people to read.
I'm on a fanfiction hiatus. To be honest, I've lost interest in writing based off anime. The only fanfiction I even really read anymore is the occasional ItaSaku or KakuSaku and The Southern Vampire Mysteries series.

Megan Fox and "Transformers" director Michael Bay are teaming up again, this time for the remake of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles," which Bay is producing. This, after the two ripped each other apart in the press three years ago with Fox comparing Bay's directing style to "Hitler," and Bay saying Fox was "unprofessional." Kristina Behr has the details.

Boston College's secret Beanpot weapon: Terry Francona
Terry Francona is the first to admit it: He doesn't know squat about hockey.
But for the first time in eight years, Francona isn't preparing for spring training for the Red Sox. So, even though he thinks icing is reserved for cupcakes, he recently gave the Boston College hockey team a pep talk in advance of its Beanpot championship showdown tonight with rival Boston University.
"He was outstanding, just outstanding," BC coach Jerry York told Herald colleague Rich Thompson. "He talked about energy level and I think that is something we had been stressing. But all of a sudden Terry mentioned it and you could see it had (an impact)."
According to York, Francona (Herald file photo) stressed the need for a cohesive clubhouse, an interesting viewpoint after last September's debacle with the Red Sox. Not surprisingly, he pointed to Dustin Pedroia as an example for any athlete.
"He talked about the locker room and Dustin Pedroia and how he could come into a locker room and brighten everything up," York said. "(Pedroia) challenged everyone to be a better teammate and a better player and that's kind of what we want."

The chain that is home of the Slurpee, Big Gulp, and self-serve nachos with chili and cheese is betting that consumers will stop in for yogurt parfaits, crudite and lean turkey on whole wheat bread.
7-Eleven, the convenience store chain, is stocking its shelves with an eye toward health. Over the last year, the retailer has introduced a line of fresh foods for the calorie conscious and trimmed down its more indulgent fare by creating portion-size items.
The change is as much about consumers' expanding waistlines as the company's bottom line. By 2015, the retailer aims to have 20 percent of sales come from fresh foods in its U.S. and Canadian stores, up from about 10 percent currently, according to a company spokesman.
"We're aspiring to be more of a food and beverage company, and that aligns with what the consumer now wants, which is more tasty, healthy, fresh food choices," said Joseph M. DePinto, the chief executive of 7-Eleven, a subsidiary of the Japanese company Seven & i Holdings.
Convenience stores have typically been among the most nimble of retailers. In the 1980s, they added Pac-Man arcade games as a way to keep customers in stores longer and to buy more merchandise. They installed ATMs a decade later, taking a slice of the transaction fees. More recently, they built refrigerated dairy cases, with milk, eggs, cheese and other staples.
But just as they have taken business from traditional supermarkets, convenience stores have faced increased competition from the likes of Dunkin' Donuts and Starbucks, which offer a basic menu of fresh foods for consumers on the go. At the same time, a major profit driver for convenience stores — cigarettes — has been in steady decline over the last decade as the rate of smoking has dropped in the United States.
Fresh foods can help offset some of those losses. The markup on such merchandise can be significant, bolstering a store's overall profits. It's also a fast-growing category.

Mustang's two and a half year running start in the market did little blunt America's passion to see the brand-new Camaro. Chevy dealers throughout the nation were filled to overruning with curious and willing purchasers. Dealers were provided special window trim, urged to black-out their windows and extend their display room hours. Long lines formed to even glance the new automobile. Those waiting in line were also more than going to debate the merits of Mustang and the still unseen Camaro. It's reported that local authorities were frequently called help control the crowds.
While engineers and designers feverishly worked overtime on the advancement of a four-passenger cars they code-named the F-car, the Chevy public relations, advertising and marketing team prepared the world for the introduction of a car they called the Panther.
All through the summer of 1965 virtually every aspect of the automobile's design and development, from initial design sketches to clay designs, was photographed and carefully documented. Chevy utilized the possessions to produce a 30 -minute film The Camaro for sale in Colton CA , which was later shown on TV and in cinema. They likewise introduced ladies's clothing called the Camaro Collection as well as a Camaro road race video game.
Buy Chevrolet Camaros
In November, Chevy sales executives and innovative people previewed prototype designs at the GM Tech Center. Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's age-old advertising agency, instantly began deal with brochures, direct-mail advertising and sales promo products, in addition to print, outside and TV/radio marketing. In April 1966, at the New York Automobile Show Press Conference, Chevrolet sales executives confessed no name had been selected for the brand-new car, but did announce that pricing of 1967 Chevy Camaro for sale in Colton CA design will remain in the Corvair-Chevy II range.
Throughout early 1966 Chevy struggled over a name for its Mustang-killer. GM's upper management was nervous about the aggressive undertones of the Panther name. A comparable bout of cold feet would later trigger the Pontiac variation, code word the Banshee, to be relabelled Firebird. Over its short lifetime, the F-car had been called by lots of names including Wildcat, Chaparral, Leader and Nova. It's also reported that Chevy thought about utilizing the letters "GM" in the name, and came up with G-Mini, which developed into GeMini and finally Gemini. However, GM's upper management vetoed the idea, fearing the car might be a failure.
Automotive legend has it that somebody at Chevrolet finally proposed the name Camaro and upper management rapidly agreed. Although the name has no real meaning, GM researchers apparently discovered the word in a French dictionary as a slang term for "friend" or "buddy." It's rumored that Ford Motor Company scientists also discovered other meanings, including "a shrimp-like animal" and an arcane term for "loose bowels."
Since a number or pre-launch materials had actually already been launched using the Panther name, Chevy's many pushing obstacle was to now rename their brand-new Mustang killer, the Camaro. Camaros are found in Colton CA by looking for classic car dealers.

Tiger Woods Injured…Again
I know this comes as a complete shock, but Tiger Woods is battling another injury. After withdrawing a couple weeks ago from a tournament with another Achilles tendon injury, earlier this week he suffered a back injury. Tiger swears he's, "good to go now," but I beg to differ. This is just another example of Tiger's body breaking down because of dysfunction. I talked about Tiger's injuries in the fall of 2010 on a local radio show and predicted that he would get injured again. Unfortunately, Tiger's body hasn't gotten better but instead has gotten worse. Why? Because he hasn't address the root cause of the injuries.
Take a listen to my RADIO INTERVIEW HERE.
QUESTION: What are your thoughts on Tiger's injury?

Time for another music video featuring both a hot rod (it looks to me like it started out as a 1935 Dodge DV) and what Mal Fuller calls "chain-dragging music." This time, it's the Australian group Spiderbait and their cover of Leadbelly's (and Ram Jam's) "Black Betty."
Loved the video but the vocals could use some help
Huddie Ledbetter a/k/a Leadbelly wrote a lot of '70s "classics" during the 1930-40s, including Midnight Special and the much less chain-dragging Good Night Irene popularized by the Weavers.
Leadbelly, imprisoned for murder, sang his way out of prison as related in this account:
In 1925, a song begging Texas governor Pat Neff for a pardon released Leadbelly from prison. Neff had sworn never to pardon anybody as long as he was governor. However, Leadbelly was soon back behind bars at Louisiana's State Penitentiary (better known as Angola) by 1930, this time for "assault with intent to murder."
Leadbelly was in fact a "chain-dragger".
Well that was rather annoying. Why do groups think they have to scream the lyrics? Is it just to cover the fact that they actually have no singing talent? Or was this just one of those awful bar bands that think that screaming and volume is music and actually somehow got to make a video?

So do you think people would watch videos of my ranked team make the climb to a reasonably high elo? I believe we are very good and have been playing together for a while, but would anyone want to see the climb from the bottom? Maybe just the really good games (whether we win or lose)? Should I also record skype, just do commentaries, or put some music in the videos? Is this a good idea or would it just be a total flop? Some feedback would be appreciated along with suggestions for the style of the videos, thank you in advance.
Please excuse any typos that I missed, iPhone too strong.

The most recent issue of Vanity Fair had an interesting article about why certain book critics are dismayed about the recent Pulitzer Prize winning novel, The Goldfinch. Reviewers from The New Yorker, The New York Review of Books, and The Paris Review are highly critical of Donna Tartt's last novel, using words like marred, overwritten, and cliche. Meanwhile, more mainstream media outlets, like Time and The New York Times, feature reviews that give The Goldfinch the highest accolades. While the various reviewers have addressed their discrepant opinions, there seems to be a loose agreement that in today's book culture, story is king and quality of writing is secondary.
To high-brow book critics (which I don't mean in any derogatory sense), this stubborn fact doesn't sit well. If an author's writing skill has a lower value in the eye of the reader, whatever amount of objectivity in what makes a book good is lessened. There are still elements of plot and characterization that can be judged, but if story is truly king, then quality becomes a mark more of subjectivity than anything else.
I have been reviewing books for a couple of years now, mainly as a learning experience. I was an amateur when I started and despite my efforts at self-teaching myself about the art of reading, I remain an amateur now. Visit sites like Amazon and Goodreads and you will find drive-by reviews of little substance and strong opinions, reflecting what many critics have feared for many years now: the dumbing down of book culture.
Slate also published a damning article of adults who prefer to read YA novels. Particularly, the article suggests, "YA readers… are asked to abandon the mature insights into that perspective that they (supposedly) have acquired as adults." Several rebuttal blog posts followed, once again setting a divide on what various people consider good fiction.
I have found my own personal reading tastes are inversely proportional to how busy and stressful my life is. When life is under control and I have quiet moments to sit and read a book, perhaps with a nice cup of coffee on the end table next to me, I tend toward the literary end. I would be much more likely to pick up a Gene Wolfe, Cormac McCarthy, or Samuel Delaney novel than I would pick up something like a Star Wars tie-in novel. On the other hand, I am currently in the middle of a job transition and move overseas and find myself leaning toward lighter fiction and graphic novels. Frankly, it's not that my tastes are changing — it's that I do not have the intellectual or emotional capacity to read anything deeper. If I were to pick up a literary novel that was more challenging I would likely be bored with it. Not because the writing is bad, but because I would miss the critical details and under-appreciate the well-crafted prose. And if I were to review a book like this, what could I even say? I would be left with surface-level criticisms and an overall generic and uninspiring review.
From my personal experience, I have found that for amateur reviewers, it is not an objective opinion or really even a subjective opinion that leads to a reader's response. Readership bias plays perhaps the largest role in whether or not a book is deemed good. I will use Ancillary Justice by Ann Leckie as one of these examples. First of all, I found it to be a fine novel and would probably cast my vote for it in the Hugo's for best novel of the year, largely because the contenders are uninspiring in a year that actually had some very good fiction. Despite my own favorable opinion, I think a reviewer would be remiss to mention that the book had many problems of a debut novelist. The flow of the novel, the pacing, and how information was given to the reader (too little at first, then repetitive later on) were problematic and are aspects of novel writing that come as many writers progress in their careers. What Ann Leckie did extremely well, however, is her use of gender pronouns. This theme alone struck a chord with many readers. In fact, it struck such a chord that reviewers gave it flawless reviews, even calling it the best science fiction book of the decade. The highly positive reviews also seemed to parallel reviewers who particularly care or are activists for gender equality in science fiction (I don't mean this as a slight on any reviewers, nor do I want to downplay the issue of gender parity. I'm sure there are subjects that would influence my opinion on how "good" I think a book is as well).
My conclusion in my meandering is that in the age of social media, amateur reviewers have a louder voice than ever. And if my hypothesis that book quality is more of a reflection of the personal bias and possibly even temporary circumstances of the reader, we have little to measure what makes a good book. Certainly the seemingly random best novel titles on the Hugo ballot reflect this notion. I don't know if there is a solution to this or even if this is a problem to solve. I think the only thing a reader can do is find a reviewer whose tastes are most similar to their own and hope that the reviewer isn't going through a particular season that can shift their perception of the book. Ultimately, each reader will have to decide on their own whether a novel is good.

The Oxford English Dictionary has this definition of "season":
"a period of the year characterized by a particular climatic feature or marked by a particular activity, event, or festivity"
It's easy to think of the number of seasons as four, or maybe two for tropical regions. A little more difficult to imagine for members of modern-age consumer societies is a 24 season calendar.
This calendar dates from the Warring States period of China (c 450 BC-221 BC) and was later adopted in the Chinese sphere of influence (Japan, Korea and Vietnam)
It divides the year into 24 solar terms (which can then be further divided into 72 pentads), each reflecting a natural phenomenon, and synchronised with seasonal change. It appears to be a guide to agrarian activities, given some of the names.
The Japanese name for the 24 season calendar is nijushisekki (二十四節気). The terminology in this calendar derives from Chinese, but as it is designed around the climate of northern China, the Japanese added some extra dates, known as zassetsu (雑節) to help match it to the Japanese climate. The names of the 72 pentads or shichijuniko (七十二候), of which I will not go into detail, also sometimes differ, further reflecting the different climatic experiences.
Here are the 24 seasons with the major zassetsu (excluding setsubun)
Starting date

This is the local chapter of Organic Consumers Association's campaign for mandatory labels on genetically modified foods in Virginia's 10th Congressional District.
We are raising awareness on the GMO issues. We would like to see the GRAS (generally regarded as safe) rating by the FDA removed on all GMO products, since many if these items were fast tracked and not properly studied by 3rd party scientists.
1. Grocery stores should label foods that contains genetically modified ingredients.
2. 93% of US consumers agree that GMO food ingredients should be labeled.
3. Farms growing GMO crops be required to contain the cross pollination of their crop.
4. Animal products that come from factory farms (CAFOs, confined animal feeding operations) should also be labeled.
5. Support the local farmer in your area.

Lineup notes: Carcillo with top line, Miller a potential scratchMarch 29, 2014, by
After last night's debacle in Calgary, Alain Vigneault has decided to switch up his lines. Per Steve Zipay, the new lines are:
Dan Carcillo-Derek Stepan-Rick Nash
Carl Hagelin-Brad Richards-Martin St. Louis
Benoit Pouliot-Derick Brassard-Mats Zuccarello
Brian Boyle-Dominic Moore-Derek Dorsett
If you are perplexed about Carcillo on the top line, you should know that you are not alone. J.T. Miller was skating with the extra forwards."Lineup notes: Carcillo with top line, Miller a potential scratch",
26 comments
This better be a practice experiment.
Miller played well last night and Carcillo has no business playing top 6 minutes.
When it comes to prospects, there is no "in between" for AV.
Either you're an NHL player, or you are not; he has no patience for "developing" and "investing" in these types of prospects. After all, he is an NHL coach; he can't be bothered with non-NHL players in his mind.
And, with Sather trading away draft picks for aging stars, we are "back to the future" with a team slowly pushing out prospects for a legit Stanley Cup opportunity.
As I stated from the point of changing coaches and not going with a rebuild program, the Rangers would be a team with lots of personnel moves and turnover, but also one which goes sideways. This is the Sather strategy at its finest.
I don't agree with this. You have a goaltender in his prime, great defense and depth. Would you rather blow it up and have elite talent like Edmonton who has no goaltending or defense whatsoever and be a perennial bottom dweller.
This team is win now because the prospects we acquired in the mid-2000s have come to fruition.
This may sound harsh and if i'm not civil i apologize but this team is on fire heading into the playoffs and you want to blow it up because they traded a first round draft pick for a guy that has scored more points then anyone over the last 3 years
While I don't agree with AD totally, I must admit I agree that we are going nowhere with the likes of MSL, and we gave away the future for a has been. The man was wonderful with Tampa, and oh by the way, a guy named Stamkos. He doesn't have Steve, and now he is showing his true colors. Sorry my friend, the man is washed up.
Seahorse, on a serious note, not trying to be a smart ass, but do you really believe the current Ranger team is elite???? Just wondering!!
Playing with Stamkos definitely was a big part of MSL'S success, and he's is definitely an aging star, but he went from phenomenal production to not scoring AT ALL.
There has to be more to it than Stamkos completely propping him up for several seasons. Give him time to get used to the team and build some chemistry. I think if we keep with the current roster for a couple of seasons (something that losing Richards somewhat sabotages) we can be an elite team. The ingredients are basically there.
But that doesn't account for the 29 goals and 61 points he put up this year in Tampa while Stamkos was sidelined.
Don't bring logic to this conversation. It won't go anywhere.
So where is the elite scorer we were to get?????
Not so elite after all, that's without logic, just scoreboard watching!!
Now we are a team on fire. Two weeks ago, post olympics, fans were screaming about how bad of a team we are. The fact is we are somewhere just above average — and that won't get us far in the playoffs. The acquisition of MSL will be a temporary "high" for the fans, just like it was with Richards who, despite a relatively good season, is borderline 2nd/3rd line forward at this point in his career.
Rebuilding doesn't mean we have to be the worst team in the league, like Edmonton. It does mean we acquire draft picks, rather than trade them away; it does mean we exercise patience with our rookies when called up, rather than little patience; and it does mean having a long term strategy rather than some idotic "win-now" mentality.
Rangers fans need to be realistic about the state of the team today: we are no where close to contending for the cup. Sorry, wish it were not the case. The longer it takes to rebuild, the further away we are from the cup.
Think about it: at one point, we had Dubinsky, Anisimov, Korpokoski, Stepan and McDonagh on clear paths to make an impact on this team. Who do we have now? Miller. and then a handful of "maybes"
I hope we have a successful playoff run and I root for our team as much as ever. But I am a realist when it comes to sather's leadership and the team he has constructed.
I would not have rebuilt either. You have Lundquist and MCD and Stepan etc. Sather needed to blend the stars with the prospects, and get a little bit more size but his stars are not all playing like stars and that hurts. He did turn the opportunity to get some picks for Callahan into giving away picks and it is not just 1 first round pick as you state. It could be 2 first round picks and at minimum it is a 2nd and a 1st. So far we have a few assists to show for it. I am not a Sather hater but if Dolan knew anything about sports he would know that 14 years is too long without at least going to the finals. Not with the resources that the Rangers have…
Seahorse says:
Excuse me- RANGERS GIVE UP TWO #1 DRAFT COICE 2014-2015 IF THEY MAKE EASTERN CONFERENCE FINALS.
Sorry but I disagree Martin set us up well to the point that Tampa was backed into a corner when he came out and said he would only take a trade to us, when that happened WHY would we offer so much I don't get so Sather blinked first that's why we lost those draft picks we probably could have held out for a straight up deal but the OLD sather came out he just couldn't wait to get his hands on the candy!!
Don"t bring logic to this web page!!
Sorry, I thought I was Ranger fan in Boston.
I agree with AD, the Rangers winning percentage is lower then last year and they have gotten a lot older. AV is not the coach you want to develop young players. I think this is Sathers' swan song season.
I'll get worried about this if it is the same the next time the puck drops. Until then I'm not gonna get my panties in a bunch over some practice lines.
Hope they aren't thongs??????
It's the only type I wear
Great come back, your OK man!!!!!
I think AV's point here is that the 2nd and 3rd lines are better this way…..and I have to agree. It is a shame however that we have to use Carcillo (who has been pretty damn good btw – although in a 4th line role) to fill the void on the 1st line. That is an organIzational shortcoming, not AV's. Carcillo is a better player than I ever gave him credit for, but I'm sure his weaknesses will be exposed with more minutes. I do like the fact that some guys will think twice about running Nash. And maybe we'll see JT in there tomorrow anyway.
Pouliot should get a shot on the first line he has the skills when he chooses to use them. JT in the press box again…disappointing I thought he had a lot of jump in the Calgary game. Edmonton has nothing to lose they will be a tough matchup.
I honestly do not get the Hagelin Richards MSL line. Hagelin is really not a playmaker, Richards has been over and done with for almost 2 years now and the MSL/Richards "experiment" went nowhere a few weeks ago. MSL needs someone that can see the ice with him and Richards is scared of the puck. He tries to dump it to someone as soon as he has it. 9 out of 10 times the puck is not in a good place for his teammate to handle. I really should do a stat of who the last Ranger is to touch the puck before the other team takes control. Guaranteed its Richards hands down.
I thought JT Miller was playing great. He needs a little time for everyone to adjust to his play. Sitting Richards for JT makes more sense to me.
Callahan with yet another goal tonight. That's 5 goals, 4 assists since the trade with Tampa winning again tonight, collecting points in 11 of 12 games with Callahan.
And the press and fan base is loving them some Cally.
My main critique and disappointment with the Callahan/MSL trade is, why now? Why couldn't Sather accept the offer in hand for Callahan from San Jose, obtain some prospects & picks, and then pursue MSL in the off-season? MSL's value in a trade was dropping each day due to the one year remaining term on his contract; we could have acquired him this summer much cheaper than what was given up. Did Sather and AV really believe we could make a run for the cup this season? If that is the case, we are in worse shape than I envisioned.
Above all else, this team suffers from poor leadership at the management level; Renney, Torts, AV…..doesn't matter as long as Sather is running the ship.
Win now? That's our strategy? What a bufoon……
JT Miller will be a star in the NHL, unfortunately most likely for another team as this one is run by baffoons !!
If this truly is Sather`s swan song year i could only wish we could pry John Davidson away from Columbus, he is just what NY needs
Hell yes.

Pedersen heading for contract renewal?
Morten Gamst Pedersen continues to leave Rovers in limbo with his contract decision but his agent seems to think that he will more than likely stay.
Pedersen has more than one offer to juggle (thanks to his agent) but Rovers seem to be heading for more good news than bad - depending on if you rate Morten or not!
A decision is on the horizon but the latest news is that Morten will probably re-sign.
But with his agent Rune Hauge commenting to the the Lancashire Telegraph, things look pretty good for a positive decision - 'Things are positive between the club and Morten, but there are still these little details to sort out, and the little details are often the big things.
'He is enjoying his football at Blackburn and he is enjoying the new midfield role he is playing. Everything is good at Blackburn, things are positive.
'But we don't know how long until a decision is made, it could be any time.'
So it seems we could be keeping Morten, his move into a more central position has given him a new lease of life.
But will it sustain once the new contract has been won? Million Pound question?

CLIFTON PARK, N.Y. (NEWS10) – It's a wedding reception months in the making after a marriage inside of a hospital.
In July, four-year-old Abby Sayles married her nurse, Matt Hickling.
This weekend, the couple finally had their first dance.
"You expect support from your family and friends," Abby's mother Renee said. "But we have it from literally all over the world now and it's just, it's awesome.
Now, months later at their reception, the couple was introduced for the first time and finally had their first dance.
"My sparkly shoes are my favorite because they have Dora inside of them," Abby said.
Those sparkly shoes match her sparkling dress and that vibrant personality.
The bride wasn't quite ready at first, running out of the reception room just before the music started.
After being called to center stage, she ran right into the arms of her knight and shining armor, Nurse Matt.
"We actually had rehearsal for this one, so I'm getting a little jittery to see if I don't mess up on the lead," Matt Hickling said.
After sharing a moment together with the music, Matt lead the way to a first dance Abby will never forget.
"To have them right there and see her so happy it's well. See," Renee said.
"Her wedding, even though she didn't mean to, and Matt didn't mean to, it brought awareness about what children with cancer are going through and that it takes more than medicine," Janine Cammarata, President and Co-Founder of Nick's Fight said.
Abby's dream came true and it helped a good cause at the same time; a cause that's helped Abby and her family, throughout their journey.
"Our biggest thing is we really wanted to spread the awareness and raise funds for Nick's Fight," Renee said. "They've helped us out so much this year. They're just an amazing organization."
Two hundred guests attended the event with the money raised at the reception going to Nicks Fight to be Healed, an organization that helps provide financial and emotional support for pediatric cancer patients and their families in need.

Reward points and miles can accrue easily, but they can disappear easily, too
- |
To sweeten credit card offers that come with annual fees, banks are promising richer cash rebates, airline miles, and other rewards. What isn't advertised is that banks can strip away those rewards for any number of reasons: You made a late payment, or your account was inactive for too long. The rules vary wildly. You may not even notice your points are disappearing if you're not looking.
Few regulations govern rewards programs. So as you consider card offers, here's what you should know:
■ Expiration dates: It's common for rewards to expire after a set time. Bank of America and Citi allow five years to use your points. That might seem generous, but few cardholders redeem points regularly. Knowing when your points are about to expire can be tricky, too; banks don't always warn you. So check your balance at least once a year.
■ Inactivity, late payments: Two more ways you can lose points. At Discover, for example, all rewards are erased if an account is inactive for 18 months or if you're late on a bill for two straight months.
Your rewards could also be held hostage for a late payment. At Bank of America, you can't redeem your points if you are 60 days or more late on a payment. You also can't earn points, since you also lose charging privileges. Once you're current on payments, you get access to all previously earned points. At American Express, you must pay $29 to get back any points lost for a late payment.
■ Transferring points: If you're sitting on miles or points that are about to expire, check if you can transfer them to friends or family.
With airline programs, there's usually a fee of 1 cent per mile on transfers. So it would cost $100 to transfer 10,000 miles. There may be caps on how many miles you can give and receive.
■ Donating points: It's common to have the option to donate points or miles to charity. American Express, for instance, lets cardholders pick from a database of 1 million nonprofit groups, while Bank of America cardholders can pick from about a dozen charities.
Miles or points are sometimes converted into a dollar value for donation. For example, the Hilton HHonors Giving Back donates $25 for every 10,000 points. Donated credit card points and miles generally aren't tax-deductible, because they are considered rebates on previously purchased goods.
■ Bartering: Points.com lets members of participating programs swap points or miles. The site is still dominated by airline programs, however. There's no sign-up fee, so it won't hurt to check.
You can't barter directly with other users. Members list the trade they're willing to make. Another member can either accept the trade as is, or list a similar trade with terms they prefer.
■ A final note: Be sure to redeem any rewards before closing a card account. Otherwise, they will probably disappear.
