Yesterday I saw a bumper sticker (or bumphah stickah if you live in MA) that proclaimed "I love my husband." Well the love was a red heart so technically it said "I heart my husband," but you get the drift.
Is this what it comes down to? We need a bumper sticker to proclaim our love - - for the person we married?
Of course you love your husband! Who says you don't?
Loving your husband is a given - the only thing that's new information here is that your husband is so insecure he needs his wife to declare his love for him on the back of her freakin' car.
Or maybe she's just really, really attractive and has to fend off unwanted advances.
"I love my husband."
so back off buddy!

For scheduling purposes, I need to limit booking to three days out.
- JotForm SupportTitusNAnswered on February 03, 2015 at 08:01 AM
I gather you would like to prevent form users from selecting dates unless they are three days from today (now) - right?
I checked your form, and noticed you are currently using the Large Date Picker, which does not support the feature you need.
You may want to consider building a form that uses the default date field and conditional logic.
For example, this form hides some fields if the date selected is within 3 days of today: http://form.jotformpro.com/form/50333080555953?
Could this be what you may be looking for - I know it looks a little rugged - but it can be formatted to fit the logic you want to implement on your form.
Please Let us know.
- MikeAnswered on February 03, 2015 at 11:09 AM
Understood. I switched to the default date field. Hopefully I can style the default calendar to match the site as well. Thanks for your help!
I would like the message to read "If you would like to schedule a preceding that is less than three days away, please call 800-523-7887. Thank you!"
- CarinaAnswered on February 03, 2015 at 01:23 PM
On behalf of my colleague you are most welcome. I edited the form so that it displays the message you requested. You can clone it if you want:
You can also edit the message by selecting edit HTML:
Let us know if we can assist you further.

Well, since you've been so amazing...1 I want to style the popup calendar colors to match the site. It doesn't have to be perfect, just less orange! The theme is mostly navy blue and grey. I have tried injecting CSS for the properties that affect the calendar, even adding the !important; attribute to ensure it's applied, but nothing changes. You should know it is being used on a Weebly site but I do CSS trickery alot and it usually works. I'd be happy to even let someone on the forum log in to see the code if necessary.
2 The client has asked that the three days out that are unavailable be greyed out on the calendar. Seems like this would require some JS? Do you know if it's possible.
I have to say configurable date pickers that work well with forms are really hard to find. If you guys added some visual styling controls and conditional controls to the calendar, you'd be the only game in town!

As we can only assist with one issue / question per thread I have moved the non related questions to their new threads.
The question to style the calendar popup background has been moved here: http://www.jotform.com/answers/509306
The question about inserting fields from one form to another has been moved here: http://www.jotform.com/answers/509309
2 The client has asked that the three days out that are unavailable be greyed out on the calendar. Seems like this would require some JS? Do you know if it's possible.
You could do that by adding a CSS code such as this one:
.days > td.today + td, .days > td.today + td + td {
color: lightGray !important;
Do let us know how it goes for you.

Bombshell: A relationship cannot survive on love alone (at least not on today's definition of love - which is usually a fairy-tale, live-happily-ever-after fantasy). The lovey-dovey feeling that happens early in the relationship will fade. And once it fades, all that is left are two very different people with a long journey ahead of them.
If you can learn how to care for your relationship, it could last forever. But unfortunately it seems that many today aren't accustomed to this care-centered thought process. In fact, many think they made a mistake, or decide that they need their freedom. This often leads to a breakup. If you want to have a happy relationship, be prepared to set aside your selfish desires, because it takes more than "love" (or today's version of "love") for a happy and lasting relationship.

Today's topic: Fall Fashion/Trends/Makeup.
Easy peasey lemony squeezy. I could talk about clothing alllllll dayyyyyy loonnnnggg lol. Ok probably not but I would give it a legit try. I love fall clothing. A little strange because I really hate being cold but I love cold weather clothing. Guess that's is what keeps me from being chilly. However, if you know me you know I'm ALWAYS cold.
Top on the list for fall are light, long sleeve t's. I think they are so nice to wear in the fall. It keeps covered, but you still get to feel that crisp cool breezy since more long sleeve t's anymore are sheer.

I love being able to layer with long sleeve t-shirts, tanks, and sweaters depending on how cold it is. This outfit is one of my favorites! Scarves. Love. Scarves. I wish I had more of them then what I do. I also wish I knew how to wear them a little better. I'm not necessarily talking about how to wear it on your body I know how to ties knots, loops & all the fun stuff. I'm talking about being daring enough to wear a scarf with a pattern or color you might not think to wear it with.

You can't forget about sports gear. I'm talking things like hoodies and sports team t-shirts. It's the time of year for football season, we all know this by now. You have to support your team.

I have become a wearer of dresses even as the wear gets cooler. I have several winter dresses,but not to many fall ones. It's great for work to be able to just throw on something quick, get a pair of tights, and boots & call it a day.

So I am not someone who is into makeup so much, but I am into nails. I don't paint mine to often because I usually have fakes ones on. However, I've decided to be more bold with my nails. Might as well right!

I want a matte nail polish color for the fall. I love this, it's so neat looking & new, at least to me it is!
I think you can all figure out that I wear boots during the fall season so I'm just going to give them a shout out.
Finally Halloween costume! Hey, it's clothing right?! I forgot to put that on yesterday's post but it's something I like to participate in, and like to have fun with it if I can!

Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi has survived his biggest political crisis since taking office in 1984, but he continues to be seen as an enigmatic politician whom many Indians do not trust or even know very well.
According to opinion polls, most who were aware of a recent military-contract scandal believed Mr. Gandhi's friends and associates to be involved in kickbacks, even though no evidence has come to light. Many voters were found to believe the Prime Minister may well have received kickbacks himself.
In addition, those who follow politics closely say they are mystified about why Mr. Gandhi has failed to retain a consistent set of advisers.
Mr. Gandhi has shaken up his Cabinet a dozen times, and another big reorganization is expected soon. Friends and Advisers Gone
Also, several very close advisers have either quit or been forced from office. Even some close friends have reportedly fallen from the Prime Minister's good graces amid talk of scandal.Continue reading the main story
An associate of the Prime Minister said Mr. Gandhi, aloof by nature, is an increasingly solitary man because of these disappointments. ''If you can't make new friends and you have to be wary of your old friends, it can be pretty lonely,'' he said.
Mr. Gandhi has lately sought to revive his political fortunes by visiting remote areas of the country and speaking to rural folk. He has also been meeting more and more with old-guard advisers who have felt left out in the last few years.
Still, rumors that Mr. Gandhi had a secret Swiss bank account became so fierce in the capital that he was forced to address the matter in Parliament. ''I categorically declare, in this highest forum of India's democracy, that neither I, nor any member of my family, has received any consideration in these transactions,'' he said in an extraordinary statement last month. ''That is the truth.'' Worst May Be Over
Aides to the Prime Minister argue that the worst is over. They point to a recent poll of 10,000 Indians across the country showing that he would be re-elected by a comfortable margin today.
But the poll, sponsored by India Today magazine and MARG, an opinion research organization, also gave him mixed ratings, at best, on his performance and integrity.
In his first year in office in 1985, Mr. Gandhi was considered a popular Mr. Clean, widely acclaimed for his conciliatory approach and willingness to label the political system as inefficient and dishonest.
Two years later, rising dissatisfaction over sectarian violence and the economy have taken a toll, as have charges of kickbacks in military contracts. So far, no recipients of such illicit payments have been traced. Defeats at Polls
Behind the scenes, Mr. Gandhi faced growing dissatisfaction from longtime leaders of the ruling Congress Party, and that disaffection came to a boil when the party lost a string of local elections this year. The defeats touched off what his aides acknowledged to have been a genuine crisis.
It began when Zail Singh, then President and a longtime family ally, charged that the Prime Minister had snubbed him. The subsequent rift between the two coincided with a furor over the handling of the kickback charges.
But instead of moving to uncover the scandal, Mr. Gandhi dismissed his popular Defense Minister, V. P. Singh, who then allied himself with the President. The two men are not related.
In July, it was disclosed that another former Cabinet member and ally -Mr. Gandhi's cousin, Arun Nehru -had been talking with Mr. Singh about running for re-election as President against the Prime Minister's wishes. Mr. Gandhi took this as a political affront, which was compounded when Mr. Singh let it be known that he would consider dismissing Mr. Gandhi from office outright. Has Gandhi Weathered Crisis? Apparently shaken, Mr. Gandhi rallied his forces and forced Mr. Singh to back down and retire quietly. He then dismissed dissidents, including Mr. Nehru. The dissidents are now calling for Mr. Gandhi's resignation and are trying to build their own independent political force.
Most analysts say the Prime Minister has weathered the crisis and can probably last until the end of his term in late 1989. But they say Mr. Gandhi's main problem is that he is still seen as a distant figure, uneasy with politicians and bureaucrats, and perhaps even out of touch with India's problems.
Mr. Gandhi, 43 years old, appears increasingly handicapped by factors that previously did not matter, like his upper-class origins, his halting ability in Hindi, the language of most of northern India, and the fact that his wife is not Indian.
Supporters say he suffers unfairly because he, unlike his mother and grandfather, Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru, did not spend decades in public service before taking office.
''It has nothing to do with what he is,'' said M. J. Akbar, editor of The Telegraph, a Calcutta newspaper. ''Rather it is the peculiar history that made him Prime Minister. People don't relate to him. They like him, they want to believe him, but there is a subconscious uneasiness about his identity. He can overcome this, but it may take a long time.''Continue reading the main story

Mental Health Foundation welcomes new funding for mental health research but calls for a broader and stronger evidence base
Yesterday, the Department of Health announced a five year funding package for NHS and university partnerships that will see an increase of nearly £70 million for mental health research. Funding will be awarded to biomedical research centres across England via the National Institute for Health Research.
Dr Iris Elliott, Head of Policy and Research for the Mental Health Foundation said:
"Despite the known impact on people's lives and the economy more widely, mental health research has historically lagged well behind physical health research - to the extent that mental health research only receives 5.8% of total UK health research spending. Against this backdrop, and anxieties about health research funding more broadly in light of Brexit, the government's announcement of increased funding is extremely welcome. Clearly, there is some way to go before mental health research funding reaches anywhere near parity with funding for physical health problems, but the direction of travel should nevertheless be warmly applauded.
"Our priority alongside securing increased funding for mental health research needs to be ensuring that it is put to the most effective use. Albeit welcome, the increased funding announced is primarily for biomedical research - the search for medical answers to mental health problems. This research needs to be balanced and complemented by social and economic research disciplines that create a broader and stronger mental health evidence base. The Mental Health Foundation is proud of our support for prioritising the voices of people who experience mental health distress in research. We hope that the increased funding announced will resource their involvement in all aspects of mental health research."

This is the official blog of the soon to be released novel "The Gift" by author Isobial L Jackson.
Wednesday, March 14, 2012
Yay it finally sunny here! I hear we may actually have three straight days of good weather which would be an absolute miracle! Last weekend we went to a friends place and watched the movie Courageous. It was a fabulous movie and the fact that basically these guys have done these movies with no training and with the actors being people from their church is amazing. My favourite movie of theirs will aways be Facing The Gaints because it spoke into a very difficult point of our lives but I was very impressed with Courageous as it really did seem to have stepped up that next notch of film making. Without spoiling the movie plot for people I really just wanted to say what it caused for us was a lot of dicussion about the changing role of men in society, the premise being that the main male characters are fabulous in their chosen careers yet not so great in their home an family life. Their not terriable but this movie is all about stepping it up a notch. Now this theme isn't much a of a shock for most people, often the choice is between more time at home or doing your job to get to the next level, payrise or in some cases even to retain your job. From the discussions I've had with a lot of family men life can be a guilt ridden road which often making them feel torn in too many directions, always letting someone down and lacking the personal time they actually need to survive life in general without high stress levels. What I found interesting was the discussion in our house that it caused. My son is study the middle ages at the moment for history and throughout all his text books their are famous quotes and pictures of men who are living in a brotherhood. Knights and soldiers, with famous writers describing their devotion to each other and protecting their families and kingdoms. There is accountability in these relationships, there is friendship, trust and a sense of that old fashioned all for one mentality that I wonder if most modern men have lost due to time and pressure. With the stresses of work, social life and family it seems like a hard ask to expect men to keep up this kind of relationship yet I wonder if that is what is missing in our young men? Do they feel this need for a brotherhood, accountabiliy and respect yet can't find it in the world we live in now. Just seeing a lot of young men sit back almost letting the world carry on around them as they leave school to do nothing but play games and eat I wonder if they have seen their Fathers life experiences and maybe even their Grandfathers and thought this is just not what I want to spend my life doing. We made the decision a long time ago that regardless of my husbands job our family would come first. It is at times very hard to stick to but the benefits we have seen in our kids and the health benefits for my husband totally outweigh a rise in pay or a new title. I've always enjoyed the saying "when your in that hospital bed dying you're never going to be wishing you'd spent more time at work but you will be wishing you'd spent more time with your loved ones and living life" When I spent time planning the characters in my book it was very easy to look around me and find plenty of inspiration for work focused stressed out Dads and husbands, yet it was incrediably hard to find good examples of balanced happy fathers enjoying life and their families. I find that really sad but I hope movies like Courageous will really encourage men to look at where their priorities are and for us women in their lives to encourage them every step of the way.

The Museum of Extraordinary Things
Posted by JaneGS
In keeping with my desire to read more new releases this year, I just finished listening to Alice Hoffman's The Museum of Extraordinary Things. As with so much of my reading these days, with The Taste of Sorrow being the glaring exception, I have mixed feelings about this book.
On the one hand, the setting of the book is superb--Brooklyn, Coney Island, Manhattan in the early 1900s combines one of my favorite places with one of my favorite time periods--as is the premise. The story revolves around a "museum" on Coney Island that purports to display "extraordinary things," mostly people born with deformities that are exploited (e.g., the hairy Wolfman, the armless Butterfly Girl, and the star of the show and daughter of the evil Professor who owns the museum, the Mermaid, Coralie).
Hoffman builds a story around Coralie that involves the Triangle Shirtwaist fire, a rebellious Jewish photographer, Eddie (aka Ezekiel Cohen), a murder mystery, a hermit who lives in a hut on the Hudson, labor rights, and the fire that destroyed Dreamland, one of Coney Island's many amusement parks. It's actually a very good story, well-plotted, with interesting characters who have interesting, believable stories.
My main problem with the book--and don't get me wrong, I liked it, but didn't love it--lay in the way it was told. Hoffman really jumped around a lot time-wise. The Triangle Shirtwaist Fire took place on March 25, 1911 and the Dreamland Fire on May 26, 1911--essentially the major plot takes place between these two events, two months apart, and while it is imperative that the reader get the backstory on the two main characters, Coralie and Eddie, I didn't care for the way Hoffman interspersed backstory into the main story. I found this made the book hard to follow and unnecesssarily disjointed.
There was a lot to like about this book--the yearning for freedom, the discovery of the past, the love and respect for life in all its forms and permutations. I just don't think Hoffman quite did justice to the story she created and the real events she documented.
Final note--if they ever make a movie of this book, Mark Knopfler's fabulous song, Devil Baby, should really be the theme song.
This book counts in my Historical Fiction Reading Challenge for 2014.

So disappointed to hear that this one didn't work as well as it might have. So much potential!ReplyDelete
I've heard mixed reviews on this one, but still willing to try it.ReplyDelete
Too bad about the jumping around with time thing. I have read books where too much of that has gone on. I find that just as I am getting interested in narrative thread the story jumps into something else. When the author finally gets back I am less interested,ReplyDelete
I'm willing to give this one a chance -- thanks for sharing.ReplyDelete

It is widely acknowledged that Christmas can be stressful, and especially so from a financial point of view. In the current tough times, people may be worrying about finding the money to buy presents and go the extra mile with additional food and drink. This can lead to many people suffering Christmas debt problems which are still being paid off months into the New Year.
Gary Sans, a legal executive in Telford law firm Lanyon Bowdler's dispute resolution department advises people to plan in advance a budget they can afford to spend, and stick to it, saying "there is no point getting into debt at Christmas and then struggling to pay it off for the rest of the year. Be realistic about what you can afford, and it will make for a much more enjoyable Christmas."
"However, if people do find that they have a debt they cannot manage, it is much better to acknowledge the problem and talk to an debt adviser, who can offer impartial advice to reduce the debt and get the financial situation back under control."
Lanyon Bowdler is one of the most recognised firms of Solicitors in Shropshire and Herefordshire, and is synonymous with excellence. The most important criterion our clients value about us is trust. We deliver a high value service and work with you not for you!

DATES & TIME: This class will be given in summer 2019 - stay tuned for exact dates
WHERE: CHABAD JEWISH CENTER OF NOVATO - 7430 Redwood Blvd. Suite D Novato
COST: $50 for the entire course
What is a soul? Where does it go after it departs this world? Do Jews believe in heaven and hell? Can souls communicate with us from the afterlife? How does reincarnation work?
Journey of the Soul explores the mysteries surrounding the spiritual dimension of our existence—our destiny that continues even after we've shed our earth-bound body suit. We examine the transition of the soul into the hereafter, the kinds of legacies that are valued even after we've forsaken this earthly existence, and the accompanying emotional journey and rituals that help the soul and those closest to it prepare for its new reality.
Here's some feedback about this class...
"Like many people I had a preconceived notion of the soul. My concept was based more on popular culture rather than on Jewish learning. This class has provided an incredible spiritual depth that can't be described in a few short sentences. Thank you for providing this wonderful experience." - Don D.
Class outline:
What is a soul? Is it possible to expire before our time is up? Is death painful for the soul? How does Judaism define life? How do we reconcile Judaism's emphasis on the here and now with the eternality of the soul?
Are there benefits to aging? What matters most in life? Realizing that we only live once, what is the best way to utilize the time we have left?
What happens to us when we die? Are souls able to communicate with us from heaven? Do our loved ones in heaven still care about us? What is the significance of the rituals associated with burial? How do these rituals assist the soul's transition into the afterlife?
What is reincarnation? How exactly does it work? Does Judaism believe in ghosts and spirits? Does everyone go to heaven?
Once the soul is in heaven, is it possible for it ascend to new spiritual heights? What can we do to assist the soul in the afterlife? This lesson explores the emotional, spiritual, and practical steps of the grieving process and explains how we can benefit the soul once it's already in the hereafter.
What is the final destination on this voyage? Is death permanent? Does Judaism believe in resurrection? Is it possible that we may one day be reunited with our loved ones?

LICOS, a primordial costimulatory ligand?
Brodie D, Collins AV, Iaboni A, Fennelly JA, Sparks LM, Xu XN, van der Merwe PA, Davis SJ. (2000), Curr Biol. 10, 333-6
In mammals, the classical B7 molecules expressed on antigen-presenting cells, B7-1 (CD80) and B7-2 (CD86), bind the structurally related glycoproteins CD28 and CTLA-4 (CD152), generating costimulatory signals that regulate the activation state of T cells. A recently identified human CD28-like protein, ICOS, also induces costimulatory signals in T cells when crosslinked with antibodies, but it is unclear whether ICOS is part of a B7-mediated regulatory pathway of previously unsuspected complexity, or whether it functions independently and in parallel. Here, we report that, rather than binding B7-1 or B7-2, ICOS binds a new B7-related molecule of previously unknown function that we call LICOS (for ligand of ICOS). At 37 degrees C, LICOS binds only to ICOS but, at lower, non-physiological temperatures, it also binds weakly to CD28 and CTLA-4. Sequence comparisons suggest that LICOS is the homologue of a molecule expressed by avian macrophages and of a murine protein whose expression is induced in non-lymphoid organs by tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha). Our results define the components of a distinct and novel costimulatory pathway and raise the possibility that LICOS, rather than B7-1 or B7-2, is the contemporary homologue of a primordial vertebrate costimulatory ligand.
Key figure: Alignment of selected sequences belonging to the extended B7 subset of the immunoglobulin superfamily
Human (h) and mouse (m) LICOS, chCD80L (EMBL accession number Y08823), B7-1 (EMBL accession number M27533) and B7-2 (EMBL accession number L25259) protein sequences were aligned using the programme PILEUP (Wisconsin Package Version 10.0, Genetics Computer Group, Wisconsin, Madison). Residues that are identical in 5/5 or 4/5 sequences are shaded red and those identical in 3/5 sequences are shaded blue. The hLICOS and B7-1 sequences share 34% and 24% identity with the chCD80L sequence, indicating that hLICOS, rather than B7-1, is more likely to be the human homologue of chCD80L. Conserved cysteines are shaded yellow. The numbers above the alignment refer to the hLICOS sequence. The blue and green lines over the sequences mark the predicted signal peptide and transmembrane domain sequences of hLICOS, respectively.

SEEN is keen to experience (there's no other word) the Institute of Light's latest venture in Hackney's London Fields, opening on the 8th June. Comprising an arthouse repertory cinema, vinyl record store, restaurant, bar, coffee shop and bookshop, the IOL will be partnering with Brazilian event organisers MargoCamilo. They're the creative force behind BRAZIL POP UP DINER, a series of Brazilian/fusion events held to celebrate the cuisine of the 12 hosting cities of the Brazilian World Cup. Well placed then, to launch 'Rio Boteco' a Pop Up version of the Brazilian 'corner shop pub' if you will. The menu promises delicious tapas, street food and – this is what SEEN's after – Brazilian comfort food! What better way to participate in this year's Rio Olympics?
The list of ingredients alone sound amazing: cassava, dende oil, salt cod, coconut and seafood. 'Rio Boteco' promises an unfussy minimalistic take on the food's presentation. Seasonal menus will celebrate the very best in Brazilian gastronomy, with the freshest herbs and spices (grown in IOL's own roof garden); with dishes like Vaca Malandra (slow cooked short ribs with cassava gratin), Moqueca de peixe e camarão (fresh seafood stew with coconut and palm oil curry) and a reworked traditional Pastel de Siri (a typical fast food dish consisting of a crab-filled, thin-crust, fried pie).
Mouth-watering tapas will be on the extensive bar menu, such as: Bolinhos de bacalhau (salted cod fish fishcakes), pasteis (crispy savoury pastries) and cassava chips – perfect for snacking in the cinema. The extensive cocktail menu, exclusively designed by IOL partners Yaguara, will complement the Brazilian theme with cachaça cocktails and, of course, a masterful reworking of the much loved classic, caipirinha.
The IOL bar will also be stocked by local artisan distillers/brewers with draft ales from Five Point brewery, gin and vodka from the East London Liquor Company, a selection of craft bottled beers from local London breweries and here's a twist that SEEN just loves – prosecco on tap!
The IOL's cinema will showcase Brazilian films in four distinctive strands, curated by Secret Cinema alumnus Harry Ross: Cinedining, where guests can enjoy the restaurant menu in front of the big screen; Light Night, an exploration of Image and Structure in Film with both classic and lesser-known titles selected for their dynamic visual impact; Light Now, a weekly screening where a film relevant to current events is exhibited without disclosing the title before the opening titles; and Members' Choice, where two films a week are chosen and voted for by the IOL members. Whilst challenging, the films should please an East End arthouse crowd.
IOL cinema will also be showing more mainstream fare – from Blades of Glory to Chariots of Fire and Cool Runnings, Charles Laughton's iconic Night of the Hunter to Sergei Parajanov's Colour of Pomegranates.
The IOL will also house a record store, curated by highly respected independent record label BBE [Barely Breaking Even]. Independent bookshop, Pages of Hackney, will run the IOL bookshop.

Interesting Perspective on San Andreas Earthquake Movie
By Lonna Calhoun On June 8, 2015 · Leave a Comment · In Uncategorized
By Ashley Grayson (COPE Preparedness follower)
I'm happy to say that the earthquake movie, San Andreas, did $18+ million on Friday (beating estimates) and looks to have a good opening weekend.
It actually first ran in LA on Thursday night, but I went to the 2:20PM matinee which was the first non-3D presentation near me. I skipped the 3D version because the glasses cause nausea and headaches in a fair percentage of viewers and I'm likely susceptible to that. There were about a dozen people in the theater with me so the audience must have come later. I hope the crowds were all out buying batteries, bottled water and canned tuna in the afternoon.
I pretty much agree with Dr. Lucy Jones that the film is enjoyable as a thriller while not being scientifically realistic. Still I hope everyone will see it and take away the idea that earthquakes are disastrous and must be prepared for. The film is not really scary if you know the reality of earthquakes, but it is fun to watch.
The biggest scientific objection I've heard so far is that the filmic disaster needed a 9.1 quake in Los Angles followed by a 9.6 in San Francisco to topple all the buildings the CGI special effects needed to shake up the audience. As Cal Tech says, the San Andreas fault cannot produce a 9+ quake although it could produce an 8.0 or larger. Despite the science flaw, the film does get across the idea that disasters are really BIG.
The clueless audience members will dismiss everything because "that can never happen."
The more thoughtful audience, unfortunately, may presume that a lesser quake would not cause such damage, and miss the point that just about anything bigger than a 7 or 8 is enough to partially collapse thousands of buildings and drop the glass sidings off all the high rises. You are just as dead if a one pound shard of glass hits you after falling 2 to 50 stories than if the whole building fell on you.
In the film, thousands die (although we don't see many bodies) when buildings collapse, while in reality people will also die from falling debris and panic induced injuries. The message here for the smart audience is: it will be this bad, but just not this way. Hopefully, it will push people to prepare.
There are some unfortunate messages in film…
The earthquake scientists (played well by Paul Giamatti) can predict the coming quakes in time frames of a few minutes to almost an hour. This is not true, although the early warning system currently coming on-line may give a few seconds warning ahead of the shock wave. My fear is the audience may assume the science is better than it is.
The opening of the film (spoiler alert) shows a dizzy blond co-ed driving inattentively along a mountain road and we expect her to have a head on collision with oncoming traffic at any moment. No, she's tossed off the road by a small rockslide; apparently a tiny tremor leading the coming quakes. The bad message in this drama is pure Millennial Generation fantasy: generation Y is never, ever responsible for their actions and an adult will always show up to save them. The adult in this case is Dwayne Johnson, an LAFD Rescue Helicopter pilot who plucks her off the edge of a cliff. Yes the movie opens with a cliff hanger. This sends the second bad message of the film, that no matter what happens, a helicopter can always save you. Helicopters are wonderful and the Rescue Crews are amazing but they aren't always available or able to actually pull off the rescue. The reality is the inattentive driver would have died from a head on crash long before an earthquake threatened her. Second, helicopters have limits and will not be plentiful enough to save individuals during a real disaster. Third, and another bad message of the film is that Johnson's character violates the cardinal rule of rescue which is: Don't Make a Second Victim. To pull off the rescue the pilot puts at risk himself, his co-pilot, two rescue team members and the reporter and cameraman who are riding along, as well as the helicopter itself. In fact, throughout the movie, everyone who is rescued is saved because the rescuers risk multiple casualties to save the one person in trouble. Movie heroes must be heroic but always at the cost of reality. The audience is not prepared for being passed over by emergency services.
Sadly, there was no opportunity to show anyone saving themselves because they were prepared. No one has a flashlight, crowbar, or does anything beyond running away from flying debris. However, one of the good messages is that Dwayne Jonson's daughter, the major cute chick romantic lead does a fine job of, keeping her head, knowing how to find supplies, and knowing how to use what she has. As the daughter of a Fire Rescue professional, she reasonably credible at knowing what Dad was all about while not being a superhero girl.
The other lack in the film was the absence of injured people. I recall politically correct reviewers screaming that there were no black people in the first Star Wars. Here, there were no casualties, no presence of the wounded. Either you were instantly killed or had at most a small wisp of blood on your cheek and running like hell. One of the leads did get a chunk of glass in his thigh but not near the femoral artery so he was good to run again within a few minutes.
No one in the movie needed a drink of water during the whole film. No one had to go the the bathroom, except perhaps, the audience.
Still, there were more good aspects of the film than bad.
The scope of the disaster was really big enough to challenge a big action hero like The Rock and the other stars. Realistically, a much smaller quake with less total damage to infrastructure will disrupt the lives of more people than shown in the movie. I hope the audience gets that.
Because the scope of the story was about one day, there was no opportunity to consider what to do with the millions of survivors standing amid the rubble for weeks and months. I'd suggest Emergency Preparedness programs get everyone to go see the movie and afterwards discuss what to do next. From the scope of the mess at the end of the film it should be clear that any relief services will be days and weeks away at best.
As I write this, there was a major eruption at Mount Shindake in southern Japan yesterday, a 7.8 earthquake off the southern coast today and within the past few hours another 6.4. It looks like Godzilla will emerge soon.

text: Self-assembled nanostructures are very promising structures for studying fundamental aspects of spin physics, realizing a small number of qubits and study hybrid superconducting-semiconducting devices. However, it is widely believed that if one is interested in moving towards the realization of multiple qubits, QDs created in heterostructures offer great advantages in terms of scalability. In our group we work with SiGe heterostructures which lead to the confinement of holes in a Ge quantum well.

Case Studies
Manning UK
Manning UK replaced their existing desking in May 2018, changing to a bespoke panel end style of desk all in White, with desk mounted screens and seating in their corporate colour.
Ann says "I just wanted to say a big thank you for all your help in supplying our office furniture. It went like a dream and the delivery team was really helpful.
I am going to need more furniture including possibly a storage wall. When I decide what we need I will come back to you.
May I also thank you and your team for all your help during this time it is much appreciated."
Ann Manning – Managing Director
Majestic Wine Warehouses
Majestic Wines appointed Cubewing as their furniture supplier for their recent Head Office relocation. Cubewing were tasked with supplying all furniture for the open office area (seating up to 135 employees), meeting rooms, boardrooms, training rooms, reception and breakout areas. Majestic awarded Cubewing the contract in October 2013 and they worked closely together right through to the relocate in May 2014.
Rachel says "Throughout this time, Cubewing provided a thorough and efficient service and I can honestly say they were my right hand men! We are delighted with the end result. We have a crisp, clean, modern office environment and this is largely thanks to Cubewing's efforts. I would happily recommend Cubewing to anyone considering a similar project to our own."
Rachel Homewood – Facilities Manager

Royal Institute of International Affairs
The Institute has dealt with Cubewing for a long time now, especially with larger projects, such as when we refurnish a floor. Cubewing have always had a good understanding of our requirements and have always completed each product on time. I have no hesitation in recommending Cubewing as our main supplier of office furniture in London they deliver in time, on time, every time!
Dawn Margrett – Assistant Director (House & Personnel)
Read Dawn's full letter of recommendation here
Celador International
Our need for a top design, reception area, incorporating glass desking was a tall order. We are very pleased with the outcome.
Hayley Clark – Procurement Officer
Securicor Guarding
The office furniture that we chose looks superb, meets our very specific IT needs and was installed with the minimum amount of disruption.
Roger Allen – Head of Buying
Magistrates Courts
Call centre staff for North and East Herts Magistrates Courts chose Cubewing Systems Office Furniture as part of a £120,000 refurbishment of the organisations' customer service centre at Stevenage, including a complete revamp of the reception area with security glazing and pass-through trays. This work was carried out by our in house office design specialists.
"We needed to totally modernise our reception area, to bring it into the 21st Century and to incorporate a Call Centre the staff would be proud to work in" says contracts Manager David Hamilton. Tasked with the management of the centre refurbishment, David ensured that all staff played a key role in defining furniture solutions that met their specific needs, and Cubewing were happy to support him, overcoming technical difficulties caused by previous renovations by specifying and installing floor-to-floor fire resistant partitioning and specifying custom-built reception counters and desking.
Irene Buckley-Waters of the Courts Service says: "Thank you for the attention to detail and the service that your company has given us. The special call-centre and post table are exactly as we needed and all of the furniture was installed quickly and efficiently with minimum fuss. Our staff members are already feeling the benefits of the new layout and everyone is very impressed with the quality of the new furniture."
Daimler Chrysler
When Daimler Chrysler first contacted Cubewing Systems from surfing the internet their first words were "We have been looking everywhere for good quality, reasonably priced desking, only to be offered 'stack it high' bargain basement type furniture, can you help us?" "Yes we certainly can" says Sales Manager Nigel Born.
After initial negotiations, Daimler Chrysler chose Brevis concept workstations, a total of over 120 workstations in all, with conference areas and executive suites from the Fulcrum 38+ range and HÅG task, executive and conference seating throughout.
"We were very impressed, the different areas complement each other well together, and the furniture specified by Cubewing met our requirements precisely" says Hussain Nakhwa, project Manager for Daimler Chrysler.
They chose Light Oak veneer with Mid-Green Nordic wool for the seating and screens, with contrasting murals for the walls. "The colours worked very well together. Light Oak is like a pair of jeans, it never dates and grows on you with time" explains Nigel.
Rockpools, the recruitment specialists, contacted us with some specific requirements, "We have a problem with space. We like the look of Ambus III but it doesn't come in the size that we need".
No problem, we discussed the client's requirements with our Specials Department and, after a site survey and C.A.D. design, we come up with the answer – Standard desking only cut down by 20cm to accommodate all fifty staff and allow space for expansion.
"By doing this straight from the outset, and foreseeing our company's growth potential, we had plenty of space for more workstations when the need arose" says Sara Buthlay, Head of Facilities.
All in Maple Veneer with Slate steel frames, Maple veneer wood-fronted storage with brushed aluminium handles and Plum Cordial screens. Black leather soft seating from GDB was also supplied to complement the curved, glass-topped reception suite, creating a modern, efficient, stylish look throughout the whole office.
Philippines National Bank
Philippines National Bank (Europe) had to relocate to new premises at very short notice. Crispin Saunders, the Deputy Managing Director contacted us to see if we would be able to help.
Crispin says "Despite the fact that I had had no communication with Cubewing before, from the start I found the service prompt and helpful. It did not seem to matter that our potential order was relatively small. We needed two desks within two weeks. The problem had been viewing any possible furniture, but the availability of a showroom close to the City was extremely convenient. Having visited twice and decided on the desks, the order was placed on the Tuesday and the desks were assembled and operational by midday the following Monday. I am impressed by the quality and finish of the furniture – K-West desks – and the efficient assembly that was done, when it was said it would be done. "Our relationship has only been extremely short, but it has been very satisfying to get efficient, helpful service, with deadlines met and with reasonable prices."
The furniture chosen was from our popular K-West range in White Oak finish.

Todd Courser's political career goes down in rainbow-colored flames
Michael Jackman
August 07, 2015 at 4:15 PM
Nope, he's not gay, but he would rather have you believe he's gay for a moment because you'll be relieved when you learn he's only having an affair with another woman.
Where do we start? There's just so much juicy goodness to the epic comedown faced by state Rep. Todd Courser, we simply don't know where to begin.
First, the story is so bizarre, so twisted, that
the excellent reporting that appeared in today's Detroit News
almost seems to read like a lampoon of the famously anti-LGBT Tea Partier. Apparently, Courser hatched a wild scheme to circulate an email alleging that he was a bisexual cruiser who was spotted having gay sex behind a Lansing bar. Why spread such an outrageous story? Because his God-fearing followers would surely be pleased to learn that it was all a lie, and that all Courser was doing was diddling fellow Tea Party legislator Cindy Gamrat. (Makes sense, huh?)
Beyond this flabbergasting story, there's the obvious delight in seeing a screaming homophobe's political career go down in gorgeous, rainbow-colored flames. Courser, who nearly got himself elected chair of the Michigan Republican Party last February, has been a noisy God-botherer, and a font of anti-gay rhetoric to rival Michigan's own Dave Agema. Among other things, the Lapeer accountant and lawyer has claimed that Jesus wanted him to run to save the Republican party, said that he went to law school to preserve the "Christian heritage of America," and said of gay matrimony, "This can and must be stopped!" Courser's "Gaygate" scandal is a welcome instance of a hypocritical gasbag being punctured, and that fartlike deflating noise you hear is his political life ebbing away.
Of course, it's a teachable moment too: There are millions of decent people who subscribe to spirituality and don't feel the need to shame others. That kind of stuff is right in the bible: Something about not throwing the first stone, judging not, or removing the two-by-four from your own eye before pointing out the sliver in somebody else's. It seems to be a fact of life that the more voluble and shrill some holy roller is about sin, the more likely he is to be neck-deep in it.
But for the time being, somebody, anybody, please pass the popcorn.

Whenever we go through any trouble, we create a fantasy world in our mind. One where there are no problems and we are sailing. These dreams change as the deadlines we create pass. One of my reoccurring dreams? I win the lottery. A common enough dream. But what I do with that may be different. I get my husband into the US. And then I donate to others to get their spouses into the US. We set up shop somewhere with snow during the winter yet where it doesn't get too cold, nor does winter last too long or summer get too hot and last too long then either. Or, sometimes we stay in Mexico, and we build a great house in a secure area with a business that thrives and can afford solar panels and climate control. Somewhere calm yet busy. No, I have no clue where in reality these places exist.
My children have their own dreams, and I know my husband dreams of his ideal place. For my kids, it's somewhere with kind teachers, their grandparents within 20 minutes, and central heating/AC. For my husband, somewhere he can fish, open his own business, and be able to take time off to travel. The common thread is "more than survival and filled with people who truly care and don't take advantage of kindness.". The problem is, that place doesn't exist. But I'm sure we all dream of it. Different people, places, and themes... but the same commonality.
We've had our battles, and I know they are less than others. Yet, they are more than others. On the surface, we aren't that bad off. But hidden are the battles that we fought, the struggles and saving and choices that ended with us having what we have. The things we have struggled and battled for I will not give up. Be it figuratively or materially. If I had to, I would. However, if I have other options, why give them up? I've given up enough, my kids have given up enough. Why put them through more?
For now, I continue dreaming... and when my children dream their impossible dreams, I refuse to pop their bubbles. Because, sometimes those "impossible" dreams become possible. And other times, those "impossible" dreams keep us grounded until a more realistic dream is within our grasp. Keep dreaming. Never give up. Your dreams will adapt to your situation, and one day, you will get to live that dream.

They are all famous in their own right but these stars have other A-list connections, and wea��re not talking spouses and siblings
Getting caged
While you may not know who Nicolas Kim Coppola is, wea��ll deconstruct it to the better known Nicholas Cage! And yes, he is related to the great director Francis Ford Coppola. His father, August, was the big brother of the director, making Sofia Coppola, also a director, his cousin. It also makes Cage and Sofia the cousins of actors/musicians Robert Schwartzman and Jason Schwartzman, whose mother Talia is August and Francisa�� sister. Apparently, Cage changed his surname to get away from the Coppola clan and avoid accusations of nepotism. He picked Cage to
honour comic book superhero, Luke Cage.
Royal bloodlines
Hea��s played a Lord, a Duke and even a Pharaoh, and his ability to portray noble characters seems quite natural. But that is probably because Ralph Fiennes does actually have a royal blood line. His brother, Joseph and he are 8th cousins of HRH Prince Charles, The Prince of Wales. Apart from being related to Charlesa�� wife Camilla, the Fiennesa�� and the Prince of Wales claim direct, though very far back, links to James II of Scotland who ruled the kingdom in the 15th century.
Gene pool
Clearly, talent runs in the family (for the most part) when it comes to Canadians Ryan Gosling, Avril Lavigne and Justin Bieber. According to Ancestry.com the three stars have family ties going back over 400 years and traces the trio to Quebeca��s earliest settlers. The website says that bad boy Bieber is Goslinga��s 11th cousin and Lavignea��s 12th cousin, making Gosling and Lavigne also indirectly related. But what is most interesting is that all of them share their ancestry with one of the most iconic singers to come from Canada a�� Celine Dion. Michelle Ercanback, the genealogist who found the connection says that Dion and Bieber are linked to a French couple, Jacques Vezina and Marie Boisdon, who were born in the early 1600s and moved to Canada.
Cruise control
If you always saw the similarities between the good-looking Tom Cruise and the handsome William Mapother, then you have a keen eye. Not only do the two (while the former needs no introduction the latter was in Lost and The Mentalist) share a last name, as Cruise is officially Thomas Cruise Mapother IV, they are actually first cousins. Speaking of his famous cousin, Mapother says, a�?I never really worried about it. As Ia��ve amassed a body of work, the questions about Tom have gone away. I figured that if I did good work, Ia��d be seen for what I am.a�? And they clearly have a good relationship with Mapother making appearances in Minority Report and Vanilla Sky, and supporting roles in Mission: Impossible II, Born on the Fourth of July, and Magnolia, all films with Cruise in the lead. Interestingly, the two characters that shot them to fame are both named Ethan.
Baby sittera��s club
Best known for his role as Mick Carter in East-Enders, Danny Dyer also perhaps gave Keira Knightley her first pay cheque as her boss. Now 30 years old, Knightley used to babysit Dyera��s daughter Dani and was quite a good sitter at that. The 17-year-old Knightley was just about starting out in the film business and apparently Dani was around six years old then, and it was only as she grew older, and Knightley became more famous, that she realises she knew the star. a�?Back then, Keira was starting out just the same as I am now. It was only when I got older I realised how big deal it was,a�? Dani says, adding that Knightley used to let her stay up beyond bed time! The 19-year-old also hopes to meet the
bigger star, to see if she remembers her still.

Woodstock in Bloom March 2017
March 2017
We gratefully receive funding from Woodstock Town Council and the gift of large quantities of bulbs and summer annuals from the Blenheim Estate. We strive to keep up the high standard of floral displays which achieved five Royal Horticultural Society Gold Medals in the days when we were being judged. Any resident who would like to join the twenty two active volunteers who help to keep Woodstock's flowers blooming should please contact me.
Our Autumn Project for 2017
UCARE is an Oxford based charity which raises money for research into prostate and other urological cancers. They have very kindly offered us up to 2,000 pink Caresse tulip bulbs to publicize their activity.
We also want to plant bluebells in the Community Woodland just beyond Old Woodstock
Both projects will depend on the support of sufficient volunteers. Can you help?

flower beds at various roadside sites around Woodstock. Our programme
is funded by the Town Council (aka you, the council tax payer) and is
also very generously supported by the Blenheim Estate who provide masses
of bulbs and annual plants for us each year. Last year twenty five
volunteers shared the work by adopting a single flower bed or by other
activities such as bulb planting. We do not now enter the regional
Britain in Bloom competition, preferring to concentrate on keeping up
the high standard of the flower displays that was achieved by Pauline
Richardson who built up our portfolio of flower beds and barrels over so
many award winning years.
Growing flowers by the roadside brings pleasure to thousands. Any
residents who would like to help are warmly invited to phone Robert
Edwards on 01993 811616.
Woodstock-in-Bloom 2013
Cllr Richardson, who was a leading light in the Woodstock in Bloom team that carried off many awards over the years, died in 2013. Pauline was involved in many ways throughout the town, but notably as a town councillor, a church warden, a school governor and a committee member on the Woodstock Youth Club. She was instrumental in developing the garden in front of the town's Community Centre. In her memory the town has recently unveiled two memorials to this foremost citizen of Woodstock.
A plaque was installed on the Community Centre to recognise her important work on the garden there. It was provided from public subscription with a significant contribution from the town council.
And a planter has been unveiled in the grounds of the Youth Club paid for by grant aid.
Pictured left to right and down: The Community centre wall plaque; Ben Richardson (Pauline's son) at the unveiling; Ben Richardson at the blessing of the planter together with Chris Oliver MBE, recently retired youth club leader and instigator of the memorial planter idea; and the engraved plate on the youth club planter;
At the February 2013 meeting of Woodstock in Bloom we agreed to focus our efforts on keeping up the looks of the plant holders and public flower beds around the town without entering the Britain in Bloom competition this year. Anybody offering to help our team of gardeners will be warmly welcomed. The Royal Horticultural Society now encourages individual streets and small neighbourhoods to join their It 's Your Neighbourhood scheme to enhance local areas with flowers, shrubs or trees. This is not a competition . It gives access to help and advice from the RHS. If any group of neighbours is interested they can find more about the project at www.rhs.org.uk/Gardening/Community-gardening/pdf/INY-info-Pack or by contacting Robert Edwards on 811616

A Silver Gilt
in the RHS National Bloom Final
and Winners of Gold in the Regional Finals
click here to read Cllr Pauline Richardson's account of the Judges National Finals Report
Slow worms bring in the GOLD!
In Olympic Year it's good to have a Gold medal from our first event. We are delighted to announce that on 19th September at the Regional Thames and Chiltern round of the Britain in Bloom competition we were given another Gold Award. Back in July two judges came to Woodstock and here are some of the things they say about us on their report sheet.
" Received a warm welcome from volunteers and civic dignitaries --an excellent DVD presentation of activities throughout the year -- Woodstock is clean,tidy and well maintained -- heritage plaques are a valuable addition to the environment -- good balance of perennial and bedding planting -- the colourful tubs and hanging baskets of the central town retailers and residents -- residents work hard to make their "Hollyhock" town beautiful -- the immaculate grounds of Blenheim Palace -- the excellent front gardens; some lawns like green velvet -- the dry garden at the Community Centre presents an attractive display -- the year-by-year planting of spring bulbs -- the new allotments flourishing in spite of bad weather -- the OWL Nature Reserve; its surveys, refuges for wildlife, slow worms delightedly observed -- recycling of waste; our contribution towards WODC's 65% of material recycled -- many community groups involved in all-year round activities; Green Gym, planting sessions, litter picks-- the recycled garden at the primary school -- community spirit and pride of place thrive in Woodstock"
Pictured above is the Woodstock-in-Bloom team of helpers
with the judges from the Royal Horticulatural Society and the Town Mayor
Pictured below is Cllr Pauline Richardson and Barbara Doubtfire receiving the award from the Mayor of Aylesbury
was sad to note the judges comment about the New Road playground where
hundreds of pounds have been spent on attempts to remove several
unsightly graffiti. Clearly there's been some improvement but not enough
to escape a comment which fortunately did not put us below the points
level we needed to get to Gold standard.
Now we look forward to learning how we've done in the "Finals" - the National round of the Britain in Bloom competition. We shall know that in early October. Watch this space!!
More "Bloom" News:-
report on the National Finals Verdict
We are delighted to have been awarded Silver-Gilt standard in the Small Town category of the National Final of the RHS Britain in Bloom Competition, following our Gold level success in the Thames and Chiltern regional round. Wimborne in Dorset won the category so anyone visiting that small town might usefully have an eye to picking up tips for Woodstock!
Of course there is disappointment in not having been awarded Gold but the national judges' report comments indicate just how close to Gold level our entry was.
We have been encouraged by the way people liked to read what the regional judges actually said in their earlier report and so we are doing the same below. You will immediately see how their language and general approach implies a whole lift in the level of expertise required. They need to be shown evidence of our being able to make connections between the pride we have in our community, our horticultural excellence (yes - pretty flowers do come into it !) and the responsibility we show towards our environment. (See their comment on graffiti in the New Road playground)....and this has to be evidenced throughout the year. On this last point we note the sterling background work of John Wood and Barbara Doubtfire who collated images with commentary towards a 30 page portfolio which was also needed. John Whitlock assembled a DVD of Woodstock throughout the year and included several interviews to make our new projects come alive...Ray Kinch on the allotments, Bob Pomfret on the OWL Project – the re-cycled garden at the primary school and I was interviewed with a group of us in the churchyard at the planting of wildflower seeds, this year's RHS special project. So you can see that the Finals call for a range of skills and commitment.
Some extracts from the National judges' Report:
" the enthusiasm of the Bloom Committee -- partnerships with Blenheim Palace and the local community of Woodstock -- extensive use of themed herbaceous and sustainable planting -- clearly a leader in sustainable planting -- the woodland management vision and its compatibility with the adjacent estate and wider landscape -- to be congratulated for developing a community allotment site in this most difficult of years -- the exceptional quality of the palace grounds -- the excellent museum gardens -- plotting flaura and fauna as part of the OWL Project -- the Forest Schools' Programme -- use of solar power -- signage and promotion of the community woodland -- the entertaining and well though out DVD -- excellent involvement of the Green Gym -- the Bloom group's commitment to the involvement of local children -- many examples of involvement in local history --the community garden at Glyme Close.
The regional judges had commented on the evidence of underlying graffiti in the New Road playground. Much money had been spent on attempts to remove this most stubborn of defacements which had appeared earlier in the summer. The national judges were quick to fix on the same point. This caused us to lose marks and, together with the less than satisfactory cutting of the roadside verges by the District Council the day before judging, cost us the Gold standard.
Nevertheless, to be nominated for the National finals of Bloom, one of only 72 communities throughout the United kingdom is a considerable honour. It's not for the faint-hearted as Robert Edwards, overseeing the road weeding will testify. A big thank you to all who weeded, watered, planted and picked up the four hundred black bags of litter, weeds and dirt off the streets. Brian Jennings and Spencer Hughes were valiant representatives of this group which included many more.
We equipped ourselves well, harnessing the enthusiasm and involvement of the community more than ever before. So well done Woodstock!
Cllr. Pauline Richardson, Chair and on behalf of Woodstock in Bloom.

Launched in 2013, STOW is a labour of love for founder Carol Lovell, the direct outcome of her own attempts to find the perfect travel accessory during a globetrotting career in travel recruitment.

Colors are vibrant and contemporary, with bold contrasting Italian goat's suede linings, gold hardware and STOW's signature orange zip pull.
All pieces contain a tiny leather 'stowaway' envelope for keepsakes and mementoes.
Designs have a distinctly heritage feel and are named after the fearless 19th to 21st century explorers that have influenced them.

How To Whiten Your Teeth + Kit Giveaway! Results Better Than Whitening Strips!
My 400th Video! Open description for contest rules! Contest runs Monday July 25, 2016 until Monday August 1, 2016.

*thumbs up this video
Winner will receive the same kit I used in the video. Basic Teeth Whitening Kit valued at .99.
For those of you are are interested in more about this company some of the top interesting things that set this company apart and reasons I agreed to this review was that they have been in the dental industry for 30 year, specific teeth whitening for 12 years. Something else that is nice is that it s manufacturer and shipped domestically (Florida). The gel is certified kosher and they do not test on animals for those who are mindful of these details.
On Day 4 of testing this out was when I really improved with my teeth whitening process I was not impressed until the first 1 hour of treatment. I could not stop looking at how much better it looked. For me my teeth are crooked and whitening strips did not work well even expensive ones. So that's just my two cents let me know if you guys have used something that worked well that I should check out.

Rolfe Headed To Denmark
- Posted by Drew Epperley
- On September 2, 2009
- 4 Comments
- Aalborg, Chris Rolfe
This move could very well be the start of a long winter for the Chicago Fire. Goal.com is reporting that striker Chris Rolfe has agreed to sign with Danish side Aalborg and will come on a free-transfer this winter to the club.
�I�m very excited, as I think Aalborg is as well,� Rolfe told Goal.com on Wednesday afternoon. �It�s a new opportunity and something I�ve always wanted to do.�
The contract with AaB, as Aalborg is known, is for three years. Terms have not been disclosed.
From the Goal.com report, it said that talks fell apart between Rolfe and MLS/Chicago for a new contract. Aalborg also offered to buy Rolfe in the summer transfer window, which MLS rejected. In a way I have to say that is a bad move on the league's part because now they get nothing in return for him. They could have at least gotten some compensation in the form of a transfer fee for Rolfe but instead will lose him for nothing this winter.
This move along with the transfer of defender Bakary Soumare last month are showing that things aren't going so well in the Windy City right now. Chicago is set to lose more than just Rolfe this winter as several key players are in the final years of their contracts.
Rolfe joins another American striker Marcus Tracey at Aalborg. Most remember Tracey for balking at a MLS contract this past winter before the league's draft.
All I can say is this move is good for Rolfe. He wasn't being used properly by Chicago manager Denis Hamlett and now he has a shot at making things in Europe.

posts I follow and people I've spoken with.) but then again I haven't checked everywhere.
This is why I've got myself a motherboard with 2 such M.2 Slots to utilize this (Asrock X99 extreme 11), probably for use as L2ARC... I'll just hold off a bit longer as prices will most certainly drop. (The 512G version is about £300)
What will it cause?
The next generation of all future laptops, smart phones and other devices will integrate this in. (infact iphone 6S already has this) this allows all next gen hardware to probably be 10x faster than existing tech (Based on the fact that most operations machines are waiting on is storage I/Os.) Being as this architecture is so small it will replace more and more existing SSD's such as the 2.5" Sata based ones as it grows more commonplace. (why would you not want something much faster and power efficient?) because it is very efficient from wattage point of view running costs on larger scales will also be less, space required is much less to as additional layers are added to the silicon as opposed to the older plane/flat methods. Just compare the sizes of your typical 3.5", 2.5"storage devices to something the size of a large chewing gum stick, which at some point will be TBs in size.
What is the future?
I am aware that more production facilities are in the making to produce this on a larger scale with additional layers. Next year Samsung will almost certainly release a 1TB model with faster speeds. Not to mention other vendors will be in direct competition. For starters Laptops not using this will be phased out. My question is what is the max amount of layers that can be added?

Brosnan helped McElhone cope with husband's death
The Californication star was pregnant with her third child by plastic surgeon Martin Kelly when he suffered a cardiac arrest in May (08) and died at the age of 43.
Ever since the tragedy, the actress has had to deal with prying questions from the world's press about the sensitive subject.
And to help her cope, she enlisted former Bond star Brosnan, whose first wife died of cancer.
McElhone says, "Pierce Brosnan gave me some great advice. He said, 'The first few interviews you do, that's all anyone will want to talk about. If you don't talk about it, it will become this huge elephant in the room and will be even more uncomfortable. Just go with the flow.'
"It was great advice. I think if you're acting and you accept all the privileges of that life, then there are sacrifices. There's a door that people are allowed to open."
