RUTH Langsford got a shock during Loose Women today as her husband Eamonn Holmes failed a lie detector test.
The TV veteran was quizzed about their marriage during a special bank holiday edition of the show - and it revealed he doesn't always tell his wife the truth.
Eamonn was probed about intimate details of their relationship, including whether he gets jealous of her male friends and if he checks her phone behind her back.
He passed the first two questions, but was caught out when he was asked whether he lies to Ruth about where he has been.
Ruth was shocked when she was told her husband had failed to tell the truth on such an important question.
Most Read In TV & Showbiz
But Eamonn insisted he had a reasonable explanation - and revealed he often tells her porkies about whether he has taken the dog for a walk.
He said: "You say: 'Have you taken the dog for a walk' and I say 'yes' - that's the only time I lied."
But the admission upset Ruth, who told the other hosts that she would "dwell" on the revelation.
She added: "I am going to dwell on that tonight... You know what I'm like.
"'Where has he been?'"
During the show, Katie Price's husband Kieran Hayler also made an appearance to talk about the intimate issues that almost led to a divorce back in 2014, when Katie discovered he had affairs with her maid of honour Jane Pountney, 52, and friend Chrissy Thomas, 44.
Kieran spoke openly about how his sex addiction nearly ruined their marriage, but many viewers were not impressed.
They branded the interview "awkward" and many insisted the couple should not go public with their most intimate secrets.

Hello Wordpretzels; happy Easter, a celebration of spring and new life.
This is a time when lots of children in Christian society are given the opportunity to wait for a rabbit to give them chocolate eggs to eat to remember the death of Jesus. Not to be confused with the birth of Jesus, which happened four months ago and features a character called Father Christmas.
So, a quick summation for a child would be:
A -Father Christmas –
- Overweight man with big white beard and red suit.
- Flies through the air on a sleigh pulled by seven reindeer, delivers consumable goods to children across the world in one night, preferably by going down the chimney.
B – Jesus –
- Man whose mum was a virgin when he was born.
- Dad an omnipotent supernatural being responsible for the creation of the universe, animals, planets, parking meters and Simon Cowell.
- Majorly upset the Romans, who killed him and put him in a cave.
- Came back to life and disappeared, reportedly to live with his dad.
So, you can imagine what it was like for me, a butterfly brained child in a predominantly Christian society, one that is quite relieved when you grow up and stop believing in Father Christmas, but quite alarmed when you stop believing in god.
"I don't think god exists," I remember telling my mum. I would have been about 10 at the time. I said it in a low voice, since I'd spent many hours in school assemblies and occasional visits to large, draughty, stone buildings full of people wearing pastel cardigans and interesting haircuts, telling me how great god is and that if anybody disagreed he would cast them down and do terrible things to them.
She fixed me with a stare.
"You should never talk about religion or politics," she advised. I added it to my mental list of things I shouldn't talk about, incuding sex (dirty) and granddad swearing (old age).
So I grew up not believing in god, but then, to be honest, that just means that I believe in one less god than most religious people. For example, somebody who believes in the Christian god doesn't believe in Mohammed, or Buddha, or Shiva, Jehovah, Zeus, Kiak-Kiak, Jupiter, Anubis, Tiamat, Orishas, Noel Edmonds or many thousand other gods that are out there.
Anyway, this means I have a tendency to read books that may give me a little more insight into what life is all about. A couple of months ago, I came across one called "An Atheists Guide to Reality – Enjoying Life Without Illusions" by Alex Rosenburg. He is a scientist specialising in physics but also studies philosophy and neuroscience, which means he must be very clever. Much cleverer than me; I was worried for the author, however. You see, Rosenburg is a Jewish name, which means Alex has a Jewish mother. I grew up with Jewish kids and I know how scary their mothers are if you upset them.
The book explains how life, the universe and everything can be explained using the laws of physics, predominantly Kelvin's second law of thermodynamics. This law states that everything tries to change into something else with an exchange of energy or entropy. It's why your milk goes off. Combine this with Darwin's theory of evolution, natural selection and millions of years and hey presto, you make a human being. This happened two million years ago. It took another quarter of a million years to produce a human capable of speaking, producing organisms capable of sharing information, making relationships, hosting chat shows and becoming politicians.
Then things started to get a little more demanding on my brain cells, since the book was based on something called scientism, where the laws of physical nature are the only laws in reality.
In a nutshell – there is no god, no purpose to life, no such thing as right and wrong, no free will and no 'self'.
I could feel a headache coming on. Apparently, extensive neurological research had shown that the brain carries out actions before we are consciously aware of doing them and it's only introspection that makes us think we thought it. Everything we do doesn't involve any planning. We don't actually think about anything.
I felt my head spinning. I explained this to Lady Barton St Mary. She lowered her Homes and Gardens magazine and took a thoughtful sip on her gin and tonic.
"What do you mean, one doesn't think about anything? That's silly."
I tried my best to explain. Mr Rosenburg was merely putting forward the hypothesis that our brains have beliefs and desires, but not thoughts about things. There are large packages of input/output circuits in your brain ready to deliver the appropriate (or inappropriate) behaviour when stimulated.
"You mean we're just a collection of atoms, with no purpose or meaning?" she continued.
"Like a Big Brother contestant?"
"I suppose so. But with a brain," I mused.
Whilst I was coming to terms with this, the book went further. History was bunk, as was economics, psychiatry, the judicial system and all the other social sciences. Humans like art and books and stuff because that's what protected us from the truth. We have evolved to make science a difficult thing to understand. I'm with Alex on that one. Mind you, it hasn't stopped Professor Stephen Hawking's book 'A Brief History of Time' being a bestseller. Although it does look impressive on your bookshelf.
So, there we have it. The reality of everything is that we are organisms with no 'self' (soul, if you like), living on a planet that was randomly made, with no purpose or meaning. There is no such thing as good or bad; history, economics and social sciences are meaningless.
However, the upside is that we have a certain core morality built in, evolved through natural selection to benefit the survival of the species. So that's alright.
Maybe I should stick to reading Runner's World magazine.
Also, I've just remembered another piece of valuable advice my mother gave me. Don't believe everything you read.
Have a lovely break.
The Atheist's Guide to Reality – Enjoying Life Without Illusions by Alex Rosenburg 2011. Norton Publications.

life groups
Life Groups are a great place to experience authentic community, share life, and build relationships. They are a safe place to learn and grow in your relationship with Christ while you connect and grow in friendship with one another.
Purpose of Life Groups
The purpose of our Life Groups is 3-tiered:
- Connection: Create a safe place to learn and grow in a meaningful relationship with Christ through praying and studying the Bible in a small group setting, apply the teaching from the Sunday semon series using the teaching notes, thereby discovering the truth of who He is and who we are as His children and His purposes for our lives
- Community: Experience authentic community through joinging with others and building meaningful, long lasting relationships, sharing life, and sacrificially serving one another and our church family.
- Contribution: Impact the community in which we live, seeking to be an agent of God, choosing to engage, serve and enter into the lives of those that live in our community, utilising the opportunities we have and being creative to serve our neighbours (social action) and celebrate life (E.g. community BBQ's etc...)
Group dynamics
- Typical group size range: 8 to 15 people.
- Frequency: The frequency with which groups meet can vary from weekly to bi-weekly based on the dynamic and purpose of the group.
- Group dynamics can vary based on purpose or demographics
- Some groups can be for a specific purpose: men specific, women specific, ministry specific (worship, youth etc...)

Players that played the Star Wars Battlefront II trial complained about how expensive certain in-game heroes were to unlock. Electronic Arts has heard players' complaints, and have announced that the prices for characters like Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader have been reduced by 75%. That is a drastic change, and one that should ease concerns about players not being able to play as their favorite characters.
View the full Star Wars Battlefront II Heroes changes below (via the EA Blog):
Since the start of the project, listening to fans has been important in making sure Star WarsBattlefront II is the very best experience for all of you. We've done this with the closed alpha, through the beta last month, and our Play First Trial. And we continue to make adjustments based on your feedback as the game launches worldwide this week. Listening, and providing choices in how you play, will always be our principle with Star WarsBattlefront II. We want to ensure the game is balanced and fun both today and for years into the future.
Making games great comes from regular tuning. As one example, today we're making a substantial change based on what we've seen during the Play First trial. There's been a lot of discussion around the amount of in-game credits (and time) it takes to unlock some of our heroes, especially Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader. Unlocking a hero is a great accomplishment in the game, something we want players to have fun earning. We used data from the beta to help set those levels, but it's clear that more changes were needed.
So, we're reducing the amount of credits needed to unlock the top heroes by 75%. Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader will now be available for 15,000 credits; Emperor Palpatine, Chewbacca, and Leia Organa for 10,000 credits; and Iden at 5,000 credits. Based on what we've seen in the trial, this amount will make earning these heroes an achievement, but one that will be accessible for all players.
It's a big change, and it's one we can make quickly. It will be live today, with an update that is getting loaded into the game.
It's important to remember that consumers definitely have a voice, and that they can be heard (although it must be said that they certainly can be just as effective without resorting to death threats).

I finished reading Barbara Kingsolver's The Lacuna last night, around midnight or so.
The book is fantastic in many ways. The only complaint I have is that it's, well, too long.
For some people, lengthy books are a great thing. I prefer people telling a story and moving the story along.
But then there's something to be said for losing one's self in an entirely different world.
I've never had a great interest in Mexico, but The Lacuna brings a fresh perspective along with actual history and helps me to realize exactly how little I know about Mexican history.
It's true that our history for some time in the USA has been largely Eurocentric. Our textbooks follow a sort of formula where they invariably talk about Europe and then the USA while ignoring the grand and rich history of the rest of the world. China, Japan, and India all get lumped together in one chapter, for instance.
And I understand, part of this has to do with one important reality- the subject is history is absolutely enormous. It's almost impossible to really delve into American history much less World History- there's just too much information.
However, in my day, American history still largely left out the important work of minorities save for a major figure like Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. That's just the reality of what I experienced- how much about the black community, about the Latin community, and so forth, do I actually know? What knowledge do I have of the early Chinese immigrants to the USA and their culture, their history, their experiences, their effect on the society around them?
Virtually none.
And so it goes that the racists du jour will announce that white people invented everything simply because the history books make it appear to be that way.
Another interesting and probably startling thing about The Lacuna is that it forced me to reexamine my ideas about Communism. The book frames the story in such a way that you see normal people and then find out they're Communists, and a completely different layer of what Communism means erupts- something that is closer to the ideal as opposed to the Fascism and Totalitarian Dictatorships that seem to erupt instead of what people actually wanted.
Basically, later on, the book explains within the story the difference between Communism and what the Communists think it is versus Anticommunism and the Witch Hunt that went on in the USA with people investigating others for "un-American" activities.
And so my legacy I've inherited in this world is one where the Anticommunist sentiment is what has dominated my perspective.
Of course, I understand this is a fictional story, so everything is explained a bit differently than reality, but I can't really get into all of that right now because it's beyond the full scope of this blog.
Anyway, the story as a whole is absolutely amazing, and I encourage everyone to read it.

text: Is it really true that drinking lots of soy milk promotes weight gain? A quick Google search demonstrates that opinions are all over the map. For example, some health websites (here and here) sound the alarm against soy milk. They say it is not only fattening but also highly unhealthy. These claims generally revolve around pesticides used in producing soybeans, and the unproven idea that estrogen-mimicking compounds (phytoestrogens) in soy milk wreak havoc on men's hormones. This article even goes as far as saying that soy milk is so unhealthy that it should never have any place in anyone's diet.

Comedian turned Hollywood movie star Russell Brand has become even more newsworthy since his engagement to Katy Perry, so Paul's going to have a lot to chat about with him tonight.
In the past few weeks he's been arrested after heroically defending his fiancee when a photographer tried to get an upskirt shot and then, ironically, she got axed from Sesame Street for revealing too much flesh on a play date with Elmo. A girl just can't win.
And Paul also welcomes Dannii Minogue on the show before her return to The X Factor.
It's Dannii's first TV appearance since the birth of her son, Ethan. Expect big smiles, baby photos and one of her trademark, fabulous one-shouldered dresses.

Parkinson's disease is characterised by motor and non-motor clinical features. The latter may present as pre-motor symptoms several years before the onset of motor symptoms. Pre-motor symptoms have been found to be associated to a later motor onset of Parkinson's Disease.
The overall frequency of pre-motor symptoms was 76%. Among the most prevalent symptoms were depression (38%), sleep disorders (37%) and anxiety (36%). The time prior to motor onset was greatest for constipation (9 years) and pain (8 years).
People with more than two pre-motor symptoms had a later age at motor onset when compared to people without pre-motor symptoms (56 v 52). Late onset patients had a higher frequency of pre-motor symptoms (79% v 65% in early onset) and worse symptoms than early onset. Females reported a higher number of pre-motor symptoms (1.9 v 1.4). Anxiety lead-time was greater in tremor-dominant compared to bradykinetic-rigid patients (3 years).
Pre-motor symptoms load is associated to a later motor onset of PD. Pre-motor symptoms are more frequent in subjects with late onset Parkinson's disease. Female subjects report a higher number of pre-motor symptoms, depression and anxiety being the most common.

Where Is Vpncoin Wallet Address – Accepted by Friends Everywhere – TAN
We would like to thank you for visiting our website in looking for "Where Is Vpncoin Wallet Address" online. speed, quite protected system, lower prices, fewer errors and elimination of central point of attack. There are many companies which are showing interest in the new It should be challenging to get more small increases (~ 10%) throughout the day. Study the way to read these Candlestick charts! And I found these two rules to be accurate: having little increases is more lucrative than trying to fight up to the pinnacle. Most day traders follow Candlestick, so it is better to take a look at publications than wait for order confirmation when you believe the cost is going down. Secondly, there is more volatility and reward in currencies that haven't made it to the profitableness of websites like Coinwarz. You may run a search on the web. First learn, then models, indicators and most importantly practice looking at old charts and pick out trends. Anytime you commence to keep a trading diary screenshots and your comment/forecast. Precisely what is the best way to get confident with charts IMHO. Oh certainly, and don't fool yourself into thinking that you purchase the uptrend will never drop! Always will go down! You will discover that incremental increases are more reliable and profitable (most times) It is definitely possible, but it must be able to recognize opportunities regardless of market behaviour. The market moves in relation to cost BTC … So even if it's in a BTC trend down can make money by buying the altcoins which are altcoin oversold trading ratios-BTC. Sure, your purchasing power in DOLLARS may be lower, but as long as your purchasing power in BTC is still growing you'll be ok. Entrepreneurs in the cryptocurrency movement may be wise to explore possibilities for making substantial ammonts of money with various kinds of online marketing.There could be a rich reward for anyone daring enough to brave the cryptocurrency marketplaces.Bitcoin design provides an informative example of how one might make lots of money in the cryptocurrency marketplaces. Bitcoin is an astonishing intellectual and technical achievement, and it has created an avalanche of editorial coverage and venture capital investment opportunities. But very few people understand that and miss out on quite profitable business models made accessible because of the growing use of blockchain technology.
Where Is Vpncoin Wallet Address: Your Obtainable Coin: The Affluence Network
The beauty of the cryptocurrencies is that fraud was proved an impossibility: because of the dynamics of the method in which it's transacted. All transactions over a crypto-currency blockchain are permanent. When youare paid, you get paid. This is simply not something short term where your visitors may challenge or require a discounts, or use illegal sleight of hand. Used, most investors could be a good idea to use a payment processor, because of the permanent dynamics of crypto-currency deals, you have to make certain that protection is tough. With any form of crypto-currency may it be a bitcoin, ether, litecoin, or the numerous additional altcoins, thieves and hackers might gain access to your personal tips and so take your cash. Sadly, you almost certainly will never get it back. It's vitally important for you to follow some great safe and secure routines when working with any cryptocurrency. Doing so may guard you from many of these adverse events. Here is the coolest thing about cryptocurrencies; they do not physically exist anywhere, not even on a hard drive. When you examine a specific address for a wallet featuring a cryptocurrency, there is absolutely no digital information held in it, like in the same manner that the bank could hold dollars in a bank account. It's only a representation of worth, but there's no genuine palpable type of that worth. Cryptocurrency wallets may not be confiscated or frozen or audited by the banks and the law. They don't have spending limits and withdrawal limitations enforced on them. No one but the person who owns the crypto wallet can decide how their riches will be managed. Cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, LiteCoin, Ether, The Affluence Network, and many others have been designed as a non-fiat currency. To put it differently, its backers contend that there's "actual" worth, even through there is no physical representation of that worth. The worth climbs due to computing power, that is, is the only way to create new coins distributed by allocating CPU power via computer programs called miners. Miners create a block after a time frame which is worth an ever decreasing amount of money or some kind of reward so that you can ensure the shortfall. Each coin contains many smaller components. For Bitcoin, each unit is called a satoshi. The blockchain is where the public record of trades dwells. Most all cryptocurrencies function as Bitcoin does.
The fact that there's little evidence of any growth in the use of virtual money as a currency may be the reason there are minimal attempts to control it. The reason for this could be merely that the marketplace is too small for cryptocurrencies to justify any regulatory effort. It truly is also possible that the regulators simply do not comprehend the technology and its consequences, anticipating any developments to act. Mining cryptocurrencies is how new coins are placed into circulation. Because there is no government control and crypto coins are digital, they cannot be printed or minted to create more. The mining process is what creates more of the coin. It may be useful to think about the mining as joining a lottery group, the pros and cons are exactly the same. Mining crypto coins means you'll really get to keep the full rewards of your efforts, but this reduces your odds of being successful. Instead, joining a pool means that, overall, members are going to have greater chance of solving a block, but the benefit will be split between all members of the pool, predicated on the amount of "shares" won.
If you are considering going it alone, it is worth noting that the applications configuration for solo mining can be more complex than with a pool, and beginners would be probably better take the latter course. This alternative also creates a secure flow of revenue, even if each payment is modest compared to fully block the wages. When searching on the web forWhere Is Vpncoin Wallet Address, there are many things to think of.
Where Is Vpncoin Wallet Address – The New World Order, Maybe – The Affluence Network
Click here to visit our home page and learn more about Where Is Vpncoin Wallet Address. Bitcoin is the primary cryptocurrency of the internet: a digital money standard by which all other coins are compared to. Cryptocurrencies are distributed, global, and decentralized. Unlike traditional fiat currencies, there is no governments, banks, or some other regulatory agencies. As such, it truly is more immune to crazy inflation and tainted banks. The advantages of using cryptocurrencies as your method of transacting cash online outweigh the protection and privacy threats. Security and privacy can easily be attained by just being smart, and following some basic guidelines. You wouldn't set your whole bank ledger online for the word to see, but my nature, your cryptocurrency ledger is publicized. This can be secured by removing any identity of possession in the wallets and thereby keeping you anonymous. Cryptocurrency is freeing people to transact cash and do business on their terms. Each user can send and receive payments in an identical way, but they also get involved in more sophisticated smart contracts. Multiple signatures allow a trade to be supported by the network, but where a specific number of a defined group of people consent to sign the deal, blockchain technology makes this possible. This permits advanced dispute arbitration services to be developed in the future. These services could allow a third party to approve or reject a trade in the event of disagreement between the other parties without checking their cash. Unlike cash and other payment systems, the blockchain constantly leaves public evidence that the transaction happened. This can be potentially used in an appeal against businesses with deceptive practices. Since one of the oldest forms of making money is in cash lending, it is a fact which you can do that with cryptocurrency. Most of the giving websites now focus on Bitcoin, Some of these websites you happen to be required fill in a captcha after a particular period of time and are rewarded with a small quantity of coins for visiting them. You can visit the www.cryptofunds.co website to find some lists of of these websites to tap into the currency of your choice. Unlike forex, stocks and options, etc., altcoin markets have very different dynamics. New ones are always popping up which means they don't have a lot of market data and historical outlook for you to backtest against. Most altcoins have fairly inferior liquidity as well and it is hard to develop a fair investment strategy. Anyone can become a Bitcoin miner running software with specialized hardware. Mining software listen for broadcast transactions on the peer-to-peer network and perform the appropriate tasks to process and confirm these transactions. Bitcoin miners do this because they are able to bring in transaction fees paid by users for quicker transaction processing, and new bitcoins in existence are under denominated formulas. Only a fraction of bitcoins issued so far are available on the exchange markets. Bitcoin markets are competitive, this means the price a bitcoin will rise or fall depending on supply and demand. Many people hoard them for long term savings and investment. This restricts the quantity of bitcoins that are really circulating in the exchanges. In addition, new bitcoins will continue to be issued for decades to come. Therefore, even the most diligent buyer could not purchase all present bitcoins. This situation is just not to suggest that markets will not be exposed to price manipulation, yet there exists no need for substantial sums of money to transfer market prices up or down. The smallest events on the planet market can change the price of Bitcoin, This can make Bitcoin and any other cryptocurrency explosive.

Ethereum is an unbelievable cryptocurrency platform, however, if growth is too quickly, there may be some difficulties. If the platform is adopted immediately, Ethereum requests could rise dramatically, and at a rate that surpasses the rate with which the miners can create new coins. Under a situation like this, the entire stage of Ethereum could become destabilized due to the increasing costs of running distributed applications. In turn, this could dampen interest Ethereum stage and ether. Uncertainty of demand for ether can result in a negative change in the economical parameters of an Ethereum based company that may result in company being unable to continue to run or to discontinue operation. Many people would rather use a currency deflation, particularly individuals who want to save. Despite the criticism and skepticism, a cryptocurrency coin may be better suited for some uses than others. Financial privacy, for instance, is great for political activists, but more debatable as it pertains to political campaign financing. We need a stable cryptocurrency for use in commerce; If you are living paycheck to paycheck, it would take place as part of your riches, with the rest reserved for other currencies. For most users of cryptocurrencies it is not essential to understand how the procedure operates in and of itself, but it's essentially important to understand that there's a procedure for mining to create virtual money. Unlike monies as we understand them today where Authorities and banks can only choose to print unlimited quantities (I 'm not saying they're doing so, just one point), cryptocurrencies to be managed by users using a mining application, which solves the advanced algorithms to release blocks of monies that can enter into circulation. You have probably heard this often where you often spread the good word about crypto. "It is not unpredictable? What goes on when the price accidents? " to date, many POS programs provides free transformation of fiat, alleviating some problem, but before volatility cryptocurrencies is addressed, a lot of people will be resistant to put on any. We have to find a way to fight the volatility that's inherent in cryptocurrencies. The physical Internet backbone that carries data between the various nodes of the network has become the work of a number of companies called Internet service providers (ISPs), which includes companies offering long distance pipelines, occasionally at the international level, regional local conduit, which ultimately links in homes and businesses. The physical connection to the Internet can only occur through one of these ISPs, players like degree 3, Cogent, and IBM AT&T. Each ISP runs its own network. Internet service providers Exchange IXPs, owned or private firms, and occasionally by Authorities, make for each of these networks to be interconnected or to transfer messages across the network. Many ISPs have arrangements with suppliers of physical Internet backbone providers to offer Internet service over their networks for "last mile"-consumers and businesses who need to get Internet connectivity. Internet protocols, followed by everyone in the network causes it to be possible for the info to stream without interruption, in the correct location at the perfect time.
While none of these organizations "possesses" the Internet together these firms determine how it operates, and established rules and standards that everyone remains. Contracts and legal framework that underlies all that is occurring to determine how things work and what happens if something goes wrong. To get a domain name, for instance, one needs consent from a Registrar, which includes a contract with ICANN. To connect to the Internet, your ISP must be physical contracts with providers of Internet backbone services, and suppliers have contracts with IXPs from the Internet backbone to attach to and with her. Concern over security problems? A working group is formed to work with the problem and the alternative developed and deployed is in the interest of most parties. If the Internet is down, you've got someone to call to get it fixed. If the difficulty is from your ISP, they in turn have contracts in place and service level agreements, which regulate the manner in which these problems are worked out.
The advantage of cryptocurrency is that it uses blockchain technology. The network of nodes the make up the blockchain isn't governed by any focused company. No one can tell the miners to upgrade, speed up, slow down, stop or do anything. And that is something that as a committed supporter badge of honor, and is identical to the way the Internet functions. But as you comprehend now, public Internet governance, normalities and rules that regulate how it works present constitutional problems to the consumer. Blockchain technology has none of that.

Day 7.
I got up just after 9 today. I had some cereal and eggos for breakfast, can't beat em. We hung around the house for a while because it was extremely hot outside. Ali had a trial run at Urban Burger so she popped off to that at 11. Me, Tom and Andy went to the laundromat to wash our clothes, we're grown ups now! It's so much easier than if we had a washing machine, we were done in less than half an hour. The laundromat is right beside Yutopia, an amazing frozen yoghurt place which is definitely going to be part of our laundry routine. I got original tart with raspberries and strawberries, it was insanely good. I got a small too and it was more than enough! Oh Americans and their crazy portion sizes.
We headed back to the apartment when we were finished. We chilled around for a while and then Ali came back, she said it went well so hopefully she'll get the job. Me, Tom and Ali decided to take a trip out to Guitar Centre, Tom wanted to buy a backpacker guitar for while he's travelling. We got the 49 bus and there was an insane Asian lady sitting across from us. Her shirt was waaay too tight and she was missing a toe nail, she was talking to herself the whole time, fairly sure she was on drugs. So that was a bit of slightly scary entertainment for passing the time on the bus. We got to Guitar Centre and had a look around, Tom found a lovely little guitar for $129.99, not bad! I also bought a ukulele… even though I already have one it' so lovely and it was only $39.99 which is amazing! I haven't opened it yet because I'm not in the mood to tune it, but I'm going to give it a good play later, can't wait!
We got the bus back and on the way home we stopped off in Phat Philly's for some dinner. I got the tofu cheese steak and some waffle fries, it was amazing. If anyone is around the Mission District I definitely recommend it, one of the best things I've ever eaten! Totally looking forward to going back there.
We stayed in the rest of the night and just chilled. No plans set in stone for tomorrow but I think we're meeting Julie, the owner of the apartment we're staying in. We're going to hang for a while and we need to get the key for the post box off her. Gotta love getting post.

We were driving south from Dulles Airport on 495 late in the night. It was our first drive down this road, and we were surprised by an eye-catching tower of light along the highway. It had an artistic feel to it, but was mostly hidden by the trees. It became a compelling mystery to solve: what was that tower?
After a good night's sleep, our hosts recommended a short outing at the National Marine Museum at Quantico. As they described the museum, we realized the mystery was solved. We had seen this relatively new museum, and now we knew how to get there.
As we approached from the highway, the pinnacle was hidden by the forest surrounding it. But when we entered the parking lot, we saw the museum. We parked, and as we approached the entry way, I was overcome by a sense of awe, knowing I walked where heroes walked and were honored.

How Nri can exchange 1000 500 rupee notes in UK?

This topic contains 14 replies, has 2 voices, and was last updated by fake women cartier bangle yellow 9 months, 3 weeks ago.
How Nri can convert1000 500 rupee notes in UK London?
There is some clarity on the issue finally from reliable sources that NRIs who are currently out of India (traveling or working abroad) will get a chance to convert the 500 and 1000 Rupee notes at selected RBI offices before March 2017.
Also, this will be considered an extra ordinary circumstance and NRIs will have to provide proof/evidence that you were abroad during this time (from Nov 2016 to whenever you are converting) on work, travel etc.
Exchange indian rupees to pounds in london
The Rupee banknotes on the pictures above are legal tender in the Republic of India, if the banknote has a year on the backside.
Banknotes of 500 and 1000 Indian rupees are no longer legal tender since 8 November 2016.
We have paused the exchange of 500 and 1000 rupee notes. There is a chance we will accept them again later.
Indian Rupees are also unofficially accepted as a means of payment in Bhutan and Nepal.
It is difficult to exchange Indian Rupees outside of India. This is because it is not allowed to bring Rupees into India.
Therefore most exchange offices will not accept Indian Rupees. We do accept Indian Rupees for exchange.
You can exchange these Indian Rupee notes to Pounds, Dollars or Euros, using our online currency exchange service, without commissions.

Saturday was a swim meet-starting at 6 am (which I had to leave in the middle to take Tanner to urgent care for a case of strep throat. Then our gas line was mismarked and the contractor hit the gas line. Thankfully I wasn't there, as I was at my parents getting ready for a pirate party. Chris starts to tell me this and all I can think is "how much is this going to cost" and then my husband says "the kids were all sleeping in the house, but don't worry, I got them out really fast". I felt like a terrible mother. I didn't even think about the house exploding with my kids inside. That put things back in perspective.
Finally it was time for the party, and it was a huge hit. The kids had a great time and everything came together to make an awesome party.
Things are finally starting to slow down and the gas line and water line are all better! I am still trying to catch up from a week of no water (think mounds of laundry) and lots of coming and going (think piles of things all over the house).
However, it made me thankful for the little things like running water in my house and that my kids are safe and sound and we can have a fun time together with friends and family celebrating.
Here are the highlights from the party. As usual, I got carried away and took WAY too many pictures, so it may take you awhile to scroll through the highlights!

The Enercare Fresh Start Program is a signature corporate social responsibility program designed to help families transitioning from temporary shelters to a home of their own.
A key objective of the Enercare Fresh Start Program is to give back to the communities where we operate by partnering with local organizations to help disadvantaged families living in a shelter due to unfortunate and unforeseen circumstances. The Enercare Fresh Start Program helps families get back on their feet by providing personalized Fresh Start Comfort Packages containing simple necessities, small luxuries and professional home tips essential to starting a new beginning in a new home. In working with charitable partners, every package is customized to meet the needs of each recipient.
Every Enercare Fresh Start package includes a wide range of specific household items intended to help each family feel confident, safe and prepared in their new environment. Included is everything from linens and toiletries, to toys and kitchen utensils, to ensure a comfortable Fresh Start.
The Enercare Fresh Start program was developed with input from Enercare employees to ensure the program provides meaningful support to the communities where Enercare operates while also ensuring the program aligns with our brand values of being exceptional, caring and genuine.
York Region
The inaugural charity partner for the Fresh Start Program is Yellow Brick House. Servicing families in York Region, Yellow Brick House is a leader in the provision of emergency shelter, counselling, transitional housing and supportive services to women and children who have experienced violence and abuse. In 2015 alone, over 6,000 women and children received support from Yellow Brick House.
Since launching in September 2016, the program has supported ten families through Yellow Brick House. In addition to providing families with Enercare Fresh Start packages, Enercare has provided Yellow Brick House with subsidized commercial services, including the maintenance and replacement of Yellow Brick House's heating and cooling equipment at its shelter facility in York Region.
The Enercare Fresh Start Program has partnered with Toronto-based not-for-profit organization Red Door Family Shelter to support families and individuals in need of a fresh start. Red Door Family Shelter provides emergency shelter and services to families, refugees and women who are fleeing violent situations.
The Enercare Fresh Start Program will support the Red Door Moving Program, which provides basic furniture for families when they move out of the shelter. The programs will work together to help vulnerable families settle into their new home and build a new life after experiencing homelessness.
In 2017, up to 15 families who are transitioning out of these shelters will receive a personalized Enercare Fresh Start package containing essential and comfort items, including linens, hygiene products and children's toys.

After a controversial end to his tenure at Minnesota, former Gophers head coach Tracy Claeys has been hired at Washington State.
Tracy Claeys took over after health issues forced Jerry Kill to step away from the program, and coached the team to an 11-8 record over two seasons. The Gophers were 9-4 in his full year as head coach in 2016.
He was fired after clashing with the Minnesota administration following a sexual assault scandal within the program late that season.
Now, he is joining Mike Leach's staff at Washington State as defensive coordinator.
Welcome to the WSU Cougar Family, Coach Claeys! It's going to be a fun ride! #GoCougs https://t.co/I8trhNsnsW pic.twitter.com/Z1mecAmuvv
— WSU Cougar Football (@wsucougfb) January 9, 2018
From Wazzu's release:
"Tracy comes highly recommended as a tremendous teacher, strategist, and a player's coach with an impressive body of work that has withstood the test of time," said Leach. "We are fortunate to have him at Washington State University."
"I would like to thank Coach Leach and Washington State University for the opportunity to coach the Cougs!" said Claeys. "I am looking forward to getting to Pullman, working with a great staff and getting to know the players."
Claeys takes over for Alex Grinch, who jumped to take over as co-defensive coordinator at Ohio State. Grinch turned one of college football's worst defenses into an asset for the Cougars last season.
This will be Claeys's first FBS coaching stop outside of the Midwest. After a stint as Northern Illinois defensive coordinator, the Kansas State alumnus joined Minnesota's staff in the same role in 2011.

If you have real, internal value, you don't need a loud, expensive imitation.
It is not what you get that makes you successful; it is what you are continuing to do with what you've got.
Identify with excellence, put your name on your work, and both your work and name will stand the test of time.
It is not so much what the job gives you; it's what you give to the job.
Give your best effort, because you are worth your best effort.

Nessa is another Wicked character that I keep on overlooking. Like Boq, she is secondary and she also is involved in the romantic complex that is found in Wicked.
Major Spoilers:
Nessa is Elphaba's younger sister, who is disabled and in a wheelchair. Her father spoils Nessa, which shows that Nessa is favored over her sister. Nessa's father made special arrangements for Nessa to stay with Madame Morrible.
In the whole "Dancing Through Life" scene, Glinda kindly asks Boq to ask Nessa to the dance. This is where Nessa fits into the whole romantic complex that is in Wicked. Well, during the dance, Boq tries to tell Nessa why he asked her to the dance, but wasn't able to tell her the truth. Nessa believed it was because he felt sorry for her. Boq quickly goes to tell her that she is beautiful. Well, Nessa has fallen in love with Boq. Well, so Nessa loves Boq and Boq loves Glinda and Glinda and Elphaba loves Fiyero. Boy, Wicked has a complicated romantic arc.
Many scenes later in act II, Nessa has become governor of Munckinland after her father died. Elphaba has arrived to try to ask Nessa for help because she knows that her father will listen to Nessa. It turns out that Elphaba's father died out of shame. It seems that Nessa has betrayed her sister. But through Nessa's role as governor, she has imprisoned all the Munchkins because she is so in love with Boq. Nessa really believes that Elphaba has betrayed her and hasn't done any good for her. Elphaba realizes there is something she can do for her sister and puts a spell on Nessa's shoes and it allows her to walk for the first time.
Boq seeing that Nessa no longer needs her assistance wants to find Glinda to tell Glinda about his love for her. Well, this angers Nessa seeing that Boq doesn't love her and discovering about the spell book tries to put a spell on Boq to keep him from going, but the spell went wrong, which caused Boq's heart to start shrinking. Nessa seeing the damage she has done urgently asks Elphaba to save him and Elphaba turns him to tin because it is the only spell that can save him. Well, after Boq wakes up, Nessa actually places the blame on Elphaba so in the end Nessa really does betray her sister.
Nessa becomes the Wicked Witch of the East in the end. Her being able to walk is short lived. She is killed by a house at the end and that is always overlooked it seems. Nessa and Boq's fates keep on being overlooked in Wicked it seems, but makes sense in a way. Each time I see Wicked, I still approach it from the point of view as a 12 year old, but the emotions are felt much deeper than that age.
Boy, if I have to look at the romantic complex, that is a lot. Nessa loves Boq and Boq loves Glinda and Glinda and Elphaba love Fiyero and the main focus is on Elphaba and Glinda. Nessa is a character that I feel like is odd to overlook. If I have such a personal bond to Elphaba, why on earth do I keep on overlooking Nessa? Then again, the center of the story is Glinda and Elphaba. She has a song in the musical called "Wicked Witch of the East", but that song isn't even in the soundtrack.

Waco, Texas (PRWEB) April 19, 2012
In science, the concept of biased interpretation refers to the possibility of two people coming to different conclusions when given the same data. It suggests that foregone conclusions and personal thoughts, feeling and beliefs allow people to use data for different purposes – the result often leading others to be skeptical. Wary of this concept guiding her understanding of the Bible, and her effort to help others understand the Bible, author Kathryn Cortes pens her new book "Just the Word: Foundation Series 1.0" (published by WestBow Press) which attempts to take an unbiased look at the Bible.
"Just the Word" is the first book in a planned series in which Cortes studies specific words in the Bible, revealing what she calls a comprehensive view of each word or topic. She offers readers simplicity through a straightforward question and answer format, avoiding interjecting with her own commentary to allow, as she says, "…the Word of God to inspire and be its own commentary."
As a professional dietitian, Cortes was inspired by the reinvigorated focus on eating fresh whole foods for optimal nutrition, and she began thinking of ways to return people to a simple, whole concept approach regarding Bible study. "I saw an unfilled need regarding Bible study material and felt impressed to develop a product to meet that need," she says.
"Everyone is seeking answers to their problems," says Cortes. "The Bible has those answers. My book helps them find those answers in the Bible."
About the Author
Kathryn Cortes, by profession, is a registered dietitian. She grew up attending a Protestant church, but as an adult she has spent years attending non-denominational churches. Cortes has devoted much of her time to studying on her own, developing her "whole concept" approach to work toward developing a comprehensive understand of the Bible. She lives with her family in Texas.

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- The upcoming earnings of Bank of America ( BAC), Goldman Sachs ( GS) and Citigroup ( C) will undoubtedly throw the spotlight of public scrutiny on executive pay. Investors who scoop up shares of these companies should do so for the right reasons, keeping in mind the difference between "high" and "undeserved" pay. On Saturday I discussed the purchase of Citigroup's money-maker Philbro LLC by Occidental ( OXY). This transaction is significant because the move skirts the issue of the $100 million pay package of Andy Hall, the head of the Philbro group. I expect the recoveries of BofA, Citigroup and Goldman to continue to be valuable to investors. This Big Three has the opportunity to emerge from the financial crisis as profitable companies and franchises. The financial chaos eliminated much of the competition, and areas like Goldman's trading operations have flourished. Over the next five years, this big three could offer a lot in the way of returns for investors. The issue of Hall's compensation and Ken Lewis' massive retirement package could be hot button topics as we move further along into earnings this week. While I do think that the hundreds of millions being dished out to the AIG ( AIG) and BofA executives deserve the scrutiny of compensation czar Ken Feinberg, I think that investors should consider the distinction between "high pay" versus "undeserved pay." Feinberg should be given a fair chance to represent the taxpayers again and determine what is sane when it comes to BofA and AIG.
I have noted before that Hall's exceptional pay package was a direct result of exceptional results. Hall's case is an example of "high pay" derived from huge profits. Hall's Phibro group averaged $371 million in pretax earnings in the five years leading up to 2008. When partners at the big financial firms oversee growth in profits, "high pay" can be justifiable. Someone like Ken Lewis on the other hand, may fall into the category of "undeserved pay." Whatever debate transpires over executive pay this week, investors should keep their eye on the prize. Scrutiny of pay packages is important, but so are results and earnings potential. CEOs should be rewarded based on their benefit to shareholders, which in upcoming months, could be "high". This isn't Feinberg's first time assessing sensitive payouts. He did a good job allocating funds to 9/11 victims families. Terms like "deserve" and "need" have been redefined by the financial collapse, and balancing capitalism with public opinion will be no small task. The trick will be keeping the top talent at embattled institutions so that they continue to recover. Investors looking to make a play on earnings from the Big Three through an ETF should consider iShares Dow Jones U.S. Financial Services ( IYG) or the Vanguard Financials ETF ( VFH) . While IYG trumps VFH on trading volume, both ETFs have high allocations towards the three banks. If the earnings results this week are positive, these ETFs could have a lot of room to move on the upside.
