Just curious to how much the men's wedding bands are.
Thank You
Jared Cosford (Friday, 30 March 2018 06:25)
My wife meant more to me than a ring picked off the shelf of a shop front. She is more to me than the ring everyone else looked at and said 'no' to. So when Ange helped me turn my thoughts, feelings and dreams into a ring she was proud to wear and have me with a matching ring, the symbol of our feelings for each other is completely designed and created by our feelings for eacother. Ange - thank you so much for getting my thoughts into a ring as beautiful as what my wife gets to enjoy wearing every day of her life.

One thing that cracks me up about manuscript review is the reviewer who imagines that there is something really cool in your data that you are just hiding from the light of day.
This is usually expressed as a demand that you "consider" a particular analysis of your data. In my work, behavioral pharmacology, it can run to the extent of wanting to parse individual subjects' responses. It may be a desire that you approach your statistical analysis differently, changing the number of factors included in your ANOVA, a suggestion you should group your data differently (sometimes if you have extended timecourses such as sequential drug self-administration sessions, etc, you might summarize the timecourse in some way) or perhaps a desire to see a bunch of training, baseline or validation behavior that...
....well, what?
Many of these cases that I've seen show the reviewer failing to explain exactly what s/he suspects would be revealed by this new analysis or data presentation. Sometimes you can infer that they are predicting that something surely must be there in your data and for some reason you are too stupid to see it. Or are pursuing some agenda and (again, this is usually only a hint) suspected of covering up the "real" effect.
Dudes! Don't you think that we work our data over with a fine toothed comb, looking for cool stuff that it is telling us? Really? Like we didn't already think of that brilliant analysis you've come up with?
Didya ever think we've failed to say anything about it because 1) the design just wasn't up to the task of properly evaluating some random sub-group hypothesis or 2) the data just don't support it, sorry. or 3) yeah man, I know how to validate a damn behavioral assay and you know what? nobody else wants to read that boring stuff.
and finally..my friends, the stats rules bind you just as much as they do us. You know? I mean think about it. If there is some part of a subanalysis or series of different inferential techniques that you want to see deployed you need to think about whether this particular design is powered to do it. Right? I mean if we reported "well, we just did this ANOVA, then that ANOVA...then we transformed the data and did some other thing...well maybe a series of one-ways is the way to go....hmm. say how about t-tests? wait, wait, here's this individual subject analysis!" like your comments seem to be implying we should now do...yeah that's not going to go over well with most reviewers.
So why do some reviewers seem to forget all of this when they are wildly speculating that there must be some effect in our data that we've not reported?

When comparing MBS All-terrain Longboard vs Trampa 35° HS11 Brake Board, the Slant community recommends MBS All-terrain Longboard for most people. In the question"What are the best mountainboards?" MBS All-terrain Longboard is ranked 1st while Trampa 35° HS11 Brake Board is ranked 5th. The most important reason people chose MBS All-terrain Longboard is:
This longboard is equipped with ABEC 9 bearings, which are more than capable of ensuring a smooth ride. They are specially shielded to prevent dirt from ruining its effectiveness overtime.
Ranked in these QuestionsQuestion Ranking
Pro High quality, durable bearings
This longboard is equipped with ABEC 9 bearings, which are more than capable of ensuring a smooth ride. They are specially shielded to prevent dirt from ruining its effectiveness overtime.
Pro Wheels have enough grip to handle rough, lumpy paths
This board uses special high rebound polyurethane wheels with a layered design, which creates edges on the wheels. These, together with the rebounding material, help create enough grip for off-road riding. The wheels are also large enough to easily overcome uneven footpaths, tree roots, and other obstacles.
Pro Deck is perfect both for high-speeds and off-road riding
This longboard's deck is made from laminated maple and is covered with a pitch black coating similar to carbon fiber. It has a lowered design, but because of its large wheels, the deck still stands higher from the ground than classic longboards. This design's low center of gravity helps maintain stability at high speeds and, at the same time, it's still high enough for off-road riding.
Pro Highly customizable
There are plenty of customization options to choose from, such as part color or deck stiffness. By combining the several available option you can get a board that's perfectly suited for you. It's even possible to add an electric motor and batteries to convert it to an e-board.
Pro Suspension can be adjusted quickly
The truck-fitted suspension system can be quickly adjusted with just a screwdriver. This eliminates time-consuming adjustments, needed to adjust to terrain conditions.
Pro Strong trucks, manufactured to be as light as possible
Trampa trucks are made from a forged alloy hanger, a hollow steel axle and an aluminum baseplate. Everything has been CNC machined to shave off as much weight as possible, while maintaining each part's strength. Weight can be reduced even more, by ordering a titanium kingpin.
Pro Powerful and reliable braking power
This board's hydraulic disc brakes are more precise and more powerful than standard cable V-brakes. The discs' positioning leaves enough space for ventilation and ensures that they won't lose braking power after prolonged use.
Pro Durable and impact-resistant deck
This board's deck is made from a reinforced glass and plastic composite that can withstand strong impact very well. You can customize the deck's stiffness level when you order the board, so you won't need to worry about weight limits, provided you choose the correct stiffness. Note that a stiffer board will weigh more.
Con No bindings or brakes and no way of adding them
Unlike many competitor boards, this longboard has no bindings or brakes, and there is no easy way to add them.
Con Noisy on tarmac roads
Because of its deck's layered design, riding this board on tarmac roads produces and annoying rattling noise.
Con Expensive tires
The tires are very expensive to replace, costing around $70 dollars.
Unlike some of its competitors, this board requires changing the dampers to modify the stiffness of the ride.


text: The_Missile Posted October 12, 2001 I attempted this for the first time with dread last nite but it turned out to be an easy, albeit sweaty operation ! 30 minutes, without gloves and without bleeding ! I think what really helped me is that I bought specialised tire levers (3) for motorcycles with various 'features' that help you not to pinch the tube, avoid slippage and easily insert the levers where you need them...2 levers about 18 inches long, 1 lever about 1 foot long. If you only have 2 levers, buy another one to use as a 'holder'. I dont think I could have done it without major frustration if I only had 2. Terminology/Tips : - Tire Bead ...this is the part of the tire that fits snug against the rim. One of the most important steps is to "break the bead" or in other words, separate it from the rim edge, inwards towards the centreline of the rim. Its difficult to start this on the first side so be carefull, work slowly and use all of your tire irons. Insert the first, then the second a couple of inches from the first and slowly work around. - To hold a lever in place wedge it under the disk or sprocket. Make sure it wont slip or you'll find it stuck in the ceiling. - Fashion a loop and hook out of a piece of safety wire. The lever goes in the loop, the hook on the spoke. Saves needing 3 hands ! - Use a 1x3 inch wooden plank to insert in between the tire bead and the rim. Twist the plank to lift the bead from the rim and you now can get inside the tire to get at the rim locks and tube with ease. so... - remove the wheel & air ...doh - remove nuts from rim locks ( only loosen them if you are changing tube) and remove the tube nut. - set up 2 3x3 inch high 2 foot long blocks to support the wheel without the sprocket or disk touching the floor. - insert lever and break bead in one area. This is the most difficult bit. Persevere , use all your levers. Once started, stand on the tire and jump up and down on the tir to help break bead. Do this all around. - NOTE: IF the tire bead is not FULLY broken from the rim your life will be hell. - If you are changing the tire turn the wheel over and do the other side. Now if you are only changing tubes .... - insert 1x3inch plank in between rim and tire bead and twist it (Spacer). This will lift the edge of the tire so you can get your hand in to pull the tube out. Work around as necessary. - If appropriate... talc the new tube by putting it in a plastic bag with talc and shaking....nothing works better - Pre inflate new tube slightly (Enough to hold shape (Avoids pinching) - Using wood spacer reinsert tube gently around tire. - To position valve...insert small screwdriver into the hole in the rim and then into top of valve (carefully) and use this to guide & position the valve in the rim. Easy. - Spread a little bit of lubricant ( i used soap) on the rim and bead and engage one area of the tire bead on the rim. Start over a rim lock. Hold tyre in place with a lever & foot. - Continue 180 degrees opposite & Work around. Ensure you never finish over a rim lock or the tube. - The last bit is impossible UNLESS you ensure that the tire bead is not engaged in its final position. Ensure the bead is broken from the rim by standing on the tire to break it away from the rim. The last manouver to engage the last portion should be easy. - Inflate to about 3 bars (this seats the bead) and then set to correct pressure. - Fully tighten rim locks & tube nuts. - Go ride. If you are changing/reversing tire - Remove the tube as above to avoid pinching it. - remove the rim locks... push the bolts into the rim & use the wooden spacer to open the tire up to remove the lock easily. - Stand the tire upright now - Remove the other side of the tire from the rim. Work slowly from one point out. It will suddenly 'pop' off. - Talc the new tire (see below) - Re-engage one side with the rim & tire upright (use your legs to hold it) - Uee the wooden spacer to reinstall the rim locks and poke them through the rim and install the nuts but DONT tighten them. This holds them in position so they dont fall out. - Reinstall the tube & the other side of the tire bead as per above. Talcum Powder - If you have a the will, clean the inside of your old tire & dry & talc it copiously. - Do the same to your tube. - This will help to avoid pinch flats. I dont know exactly how, but it works. Enjoy ------------------ The Missile '99 WR400F Airbox Lid - gone Throttle Stop - shorty!

The scale of the pension transfer crisis looming over the UK's biggest
providers is starting to hit home as research shows thousands of customers
could be better off transferring plans.
Figures calculated for Money Marketing reveal many policyholders with high
early transfer value pensions are likely to benefit from switching their
plans to lower-charging stakeholder-style plans.
Many customers could benefit by as much as £10,000 if they move their
plan. The figures, while bad news for some of the biggest providers,
reaffirms the need for IFAs to revisit their clients to ensure they have
the best deal for their retirement.
The crisis surrounds those life offices which have offered high values on
transfers made during a plan's early years. These include CGU, Norwich
Union, Scottish Amicable, Scottish Equitable, Scottish Mutual and Standard
Because the life offices offer such high transfer values in the early
years, they are unable to recoup much of the investment in initial start-up
costs such as commission if the plan is switched in the first seven or
eight years.
Providers could lose billions of pounds as clients take advantage of
moving to the new lower-charging structures offered by stakeholder-style
The figures show the projected maturity values policyholders can expect on
their existing plans based on a premium of £200 a month over 25 years at
the PIA-assumed growth rate of 7 per cent. These figures are then compared
with the projected return based on the stakeholder 1 per cent charging
NU's customers are likely to pick up nearly £10,000 by switching from
their existing plan to a stakeholder-style plan.
Standard Life senior technical manager Margaret Craig says: "The person
used for the calculation would be better off transferring. But another
person with different circumstances would potentially be better off staying
where they are. You cannot say it will be the same for everybody but it
strengthens the argument for good advice."
Wentworth Rose managing director Philip Rose says: "These figures provide
justification for IFAs to go back and review their cli-ents' pensions."
Towry Law Fraser Smith regional manager Patrick Murphy says: "It was
always going to be a problem when companies brought these plans out. They
are likely to take a massive hit if lots of people transfer out of these
plans once the commission earnings' period has ended."

A Vintage Lady
I've used Basic Grey Curio papers. I'm really hung up on peachy colors right now so I already knew what color I was going to use on my lady's clothing and I got lucky with the BG papers.
She is colored with Copic markers except for her hat. This is my second attempt at paper piecing and I used some of the DP to make her hat. The hat base is the same paper as the big peachy mat and the flowers from the same paper as the mat directly under the image.
I used my last little piece of this cool little metallic fiber to wrap around the image piece. The large rose was originally white. I sponged some Tattered Rose Distress ink on it and sprayed it with water. The sentiment was kind of a surprise. The top layer is the smallest Nestie from the new Lacey Circles. This is the first time I've used the smallest die and I didn't realize that it doesn't cut the little half circles out like the rest of the dies in the set. I carefully inked with Walnut Stain using the die for a mask and then popped the whole thing on a Nestie circle that I inked with the same color.
I'm really happy with how it came out. The only thing I would change if I could would be to slide the flowered mat up just a tad so that more of the lace would show on the bottom. Hope you like the card.
I'm entering it in the following challenges.

Spam Report: California Stumbles Over the Junk E-Mail Question
Oct 4, 2001 2:42 PM PT
Despite promises to the contrary and a number of state laws making it unlawful to send unsolicited, commercial e-mail, the California Attorney General and the California Department of Consumer Affairs (DOCA), including its newly formed Office of Privacy Protection, appear to have done little to fight the crush of spam that is burdening businesses in the state.
Moreover, when asked about fighting spam, the responsible agencies fumbled for information, and were not sure whether they had a program to fight spam or the authority to do so.
An agent named Karen in the consumer assistance department of the California Attorney General's Office told the E-Commerce Times to use its Web site to file an online inquiry and complaint to report damages caused by spam, saying that the complaint form was used "to develop information about patterns of activity by specific companies."
However, when pressed on the question of whether the online inquiry and complaint form would result in any action by the Attorney General's office to combat spam, the agent said, "I don't know if there is an enforcement program or whether the AG office will be able to provide info on who has jurisdiction."
An online inquiry and complaint form regarding spam was filed with the AG's office in mid-August, but resulted in no action or response on the part of law enforcement agency.
The AG's office, however, did forward copies of the state laws in California that forbid the sending of unsolicited e-mail advertisements.
Empty Promises
Much like the efforts to reach a company that sends out thousands of spam e-mails using a false address, the effort to find someone in the California law enforcement and regulatory agencies who is doing anything about spam came to a dead end -- although it appeared promising at first.
The DOCA publishes a page on its site entitled "Fighting a Spam Attack," which says that people affected by the "barrage of spam-mail" should contact the Office of Privacy Protection or call the Consumer Affairs office at (800) 952-5210.
Open Door Policy?
According to the "Fighting a Spam Attack" site, the Office of Privacy Protection was to open on July 1st. However, when the E-Commerce Times called the DOCA in mid-August, the agent, Dan Gomez, said the Office of Privacy Protection was not yet open.
Wednesday, an agent in the Office of Privacy Protection told the E-Commerce Times that the office has been funded and employees are already working on research and educational projects, but that the Web site and services are not fully operational. The site address provided for the office, http://www.privacyprotection.dca.ca.gov, went nowhere.
Passing the Spam
According to Gomez, contacting the Attorney General's office would be "the quickest route" for getting information on enforcement actions. He also provided the phone number of the person in charge of the newly formed Office of Privacy Protection, Joanne McNabb.
When the E-Commerce Times called McNabb, she said that the Office of Privacy Protection was late in opening its doors because it was in the process of getting funds and hiring people to help businesses and consumers protect their privacy.
The Office of Privacy Protection would also be running educational programs and working with other agencies in enforcing state privacy laws, McNabb said. However, McNabb said, she did not believe that there was a state law that prohibits spam and that it "is up to the consumer" to track down the source of spam, "which can be pretty darn tricky."
"It's a challenge to regulate," McNabb said, "It's not clear where it takes place or who has jurisdiction."
Gathering Dust
What is clear -- at least in the legal books -- is that spam is illegal in the Golden State. The California Business and Professions Code, in sections 17538.4 and 17538.45, prohibits the sending of unsolicited e-mail advertisements.
Subsection 4 provides that e-mail senders must include a toll-free number or valid return e-mail address that consumers and businesses can use to request that no further unsolicited e-mails be sent. The subsection also specifically requires that e-mail advertisements bear the legend "ADV" in the header of the mail.
Subsection 45 -- which is an entirely separate law from subsection 4 despite their similar number designations -- prohibits use of another company's services or equipment for the transmission of unsolicited e-mail advertisements.
According to subsection 45, those damaged by violations of the law can recover actual monetary losses or liquidated damages of US$50 for each illegal e-mail, up to a maximum of $25,000 per day.
Going Straight To Jail
In addition, California has broad references in its penal code regarding the illegal use of computers.
Penal Code section 502 makes it a crime for individuals and companies to damage, knowingly access without permission, or otherwise use any data, computer, computer system or computer network in order to execute a deceptive scheme or wrongfully obtain money, property or data.
The law's scope includes those acts in which an individual knowingly, and without permission, disrupts or causes the disruption of computer services. The punishment for violating section 502 includes fines not exceeding $10,000 and imprisonment.
Apparently, someone in the state attorney general's office believes that section 502 applies to spam because the law was included in the set of laws it mailed out in response to the telephone inquiry about what businesses in California can do about spam.
Taking Charge
Under the terms of the section 502, violating the computer-use law from a computer in Arizona through use of a computer in California gives California law enforcement officers the authority to prosecute.
However, research revealed that only a few Internet service providers and highly motivated private citizens in the state have stepped up to the plate and brought lawsuits against spammers -- to little avail.

At the junction after the Grotto
well heres the synth of the junction after the grotto..
In view will be the houses belonging to the Rodrigues, Mrs. Flananingan, and the Pareiras.
This junction is very interesting because it gives a great view of these houses, with a sneak preview of the Ranwar Square over the grotto.
These houses if maintained would look just stunning. Its going to be one way in which the old glory of a place like Ranwar can be brought back.
If we look at other villages like Shirely Rajan (Bandra) and Khotachiwadi (Girgaum), these houses have been reinterpreted to todays times and have been given a new look with something as simple as exterior facade paints. nothing more but just limestone mixed with color will not only give these walls a new life but also lets them breathe, specially in a whether like Mumbai.
But anyways coming back to these patterns in grills, these window styles, the verandah styles, the colors, they are similar all across these kind of villages everywhere in Mumbai. They are said to be Portuguese in style, but they are not..well maybe they have an influence, but they are very Indian in style and make and is a typical style of paddy cultivating villages around the Konkan line and the rest of Mumbai, wherever they are located. It is popularly know as Vernacular Architecture style, but its a good example of Local style. These are ofcourse going in a time warp due their appearance today, but a little modification and these will look absolutely stunning.

In this issue of the bulletin, (in fact, on the following pages) we recognize the members of the inaugural Old St. Patrick's Church Crossroads Runners team. More than 100 men and women on Sunday, October 9, 2011 will complete 26.2 miles in the Bank of America Chicago Marathon. Months of training, preparation and effort will come together on one October morning. Their dedication, fortitude and willingness to set a goal and see it to completion have been such an inspiration to not only me, but also the Old St. Pat's community.
The funds raised by the Crossroads Runners Team help support Old St. Pat's social outreach mission to eradicate poverty and homelessness through jobs and education.
Much like these individuals are nearing what may be the completion (or perhaps only just the beginning) of their goal; I hope you will take a moment to recognize and congratulate yourselves on the completion of your own personal "marathons."
I believe the efforts of these individuals (and more than 40,000 others who will join them next week) challenge all of us to think of the marathons in our own lives. The moment (or series of moments) we find ourselves starting a journey. The time needed to overcome our fears, insecurities and other obstacles that tell us "no" along the way. And finally, the completion of a lifelong goal. These challenges are different for us all. It may be the conclusion of an academic degree, the attainment of the career you have always strived towards, or the realization you have reached an outcome you never planned for; but was headed towards the whole time.
Much like these individuals are nearing what may be the completion (or perhaps only just the beginning) of their goal; I hope you will take a moment to recognize and congratulate yourselves on the completion of your own personal "marathons."
I have been so blessed to be a part of the amazing experience of creating the inaugural Crossroads Runners Team. From the outpouring of support from our community, to the runners, volunteers and staff members who have put in countless hours to see it succeed, Old St. Pat's is a very special place. And so, what are my personal marathons? Well, I have had a few. But, thanks to the men and women of the Crossroads Runners Team, I have found yet another to add to my list. I have started running. And while I am not a marathon runner yet, the first step in my personal marathon is participating in a 5K.
I am moved by the story of Sister Marion Irvine, who in her 40's began running and in 1983, at 53, became the oldest person to ever qualify for the Olympic Trials.
"It's elevating and humbling at the same time. Running along a beach at sunrise with no other footprints in the sand, you realize the vastness of creation, your own insignificant space in the plan, how tiny you really are, your own creatureliness and how much you owe to the supreme body, the God that brought all this beauty and harmony into being."
— Sister Marion Irvine
2:51 PR and 1984 U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials qualifier

Megan C. Williamson, CFRE, is Director of Advancement at Old St. Patrick's Church.
Put some green on!
The Old St. Pat's community is invited to come out and cheer for all of the Crossroads Runners as they pass Old St. Patrick's Church on their way to the finish line on Sunday, October 9. We encourage everyone to wear green in support of the runners.


text: Requirements for Phlebotomy Training in Florida There are no current state requirement to get phlebotomy training in Florida. It is still a good idea to get training though. The job market for phlebotomists in Florida is still strong. There is a look of growth potential and jobs opening each year. However it is still necessary to have the right amount of training and experience.to get hired. Typical Requirements for Programs There are typically a range of requirements for each program. Certain programs will require more than others. A community college will generally require more than private schools and institutes. There are general requirements for a private school program for phlebotomy training in Florida. This includes being at least 18 years old. Students must also have high school diploma or GED. Students taking a program with an externship will have more requirements. Students will have to have vaccinations like Hepatitis B. A TB test is also required. Background checks are usually needed as well. In some cases a school will require that students have medical insurance while enrolled. Community Colleges Community colleges typically require students to apply to the community college first. Most community colleges do not have any admissions selection. This means that anybody that applies can enroll with the school. The community college will require a general application to apply. This application will include basic information such as name and address. The next step is to take any necessary tests. Most community colleges require English and math tests. Students need to take these to see if they meet the minimum English and math levels for the school. If they do not then they may need to take an English or math class before starting phlebotomy classes. There are more requirements for those enrolled in a community college program for phlebotomy training in Florida. Similar to a private school, students often need more requirements if they enroll in an externship. These include having a criminal background check completed. A TB test is usually required too. Students will also have to have all immunizations up to date. There may be a requirement for medical insurance. Getting certified The state of Florida does not certify phlebotomists. Phlebotomists can still get certified through a nationally known program. The most well known is the American Society for Clinical Pathology program. There are many other programs that certify students after phlebotomy training. In some cases a program for phlebotomy training in Florida might even offer the examination for the national license at the school. Students will also have to show proof of blood draws. Places to Get Training Training programs may be more prevalent in big cities throughout the state. Area like Orlando will have several choices. Other area like Gainesville will be more limited with options.A list of schools that have phlebotomy training are here: Phlebotomy Training in Gainesville Phlebotomy Training in Jacksonville Phlebotomy Training in Orlando FL Phlebotomy Training in Tampa FL It may be necessary to drive to nearby cities and schools to get the training at the price and time needed. If it is only for a few months then a small drive can be manageable. You should remember that there are also externships that can be done closer to where you live if permitted by the school. Check with each school to find a schedule that works best. Get Your Degree! Find schools and get information on the program that's right for you. Powered by Campus ExplorerRead More »

Alexander Volkov Knocks Out Fabricio Werdum in UFC London Headliner
THAT. IS. IT.@AlexDragoVolkov gets the biggest win of his career at #UFCLondon! He stops Werdum in round 4! pic.twitter.com/YMSFE7udiq— UFC (@ufc) March 17, 2018
He's been M-1 Challenge heavyweight champ, Bellator MMA's too. Now, after a fourth-round knockout of former UFC champion Fabricio Werdum at UFC Fight Night 127, Alexander Volkov is coming for the Octagon's heavyweight prize, too.
Saturday inside London's O2 Arena, the 29-year-old Volkov (30-6 MMA, 4-0 UFC) outlasted and outwitted Werdum (23-8-1 MMA, 11-5 UFC), the best grappler in heavyweight MMA history, thwarting his ground game to punch him out at 98 seconds into the penultimate round. The bout was not just a testament to strategy, but also a clear depiction of the extent to which fighters can actualize improvements in their abilities and execution.
The 40-year-old Werdum was dominant early, landing winging punches to set up snatch single-leg takedowns, then pounding Volkov from guard. At the end of the second round, it looked like Werdum may even finish, as he passed to half guard and threatened with a late kimura attempt. However, by this point, the 6-foot-7 Volkov had staved off his attack long enough, while landing sharp jabs and long right crosses, opening up a nasty cut under the fatiguing Brazilian's right eye.
By the third round, both heavyweights seemed fatigued, but Werdum became increasingly desperate, constantly flopping to his back and shooting weak singles, pulling guard and trying to sweep to top position. Even when "Drago" wound up on the canvas, he would fight back to his feet and punish the former heavyweight kingpin. In Round 4, Volkov shut down yet another single-leg attempt into a butt scoot. He nonchalantly told Werdum to stand and when he did, dropped him with a right hook, then followed up with punches until Marc Goddard intervened, capping the Russian's biggest career victory.
"I'm coming right now, I'm waiting for the title shot, maybe it will be [my] next fight, who knows? I'm here for this," Volkov said in his post-fight interview. "Just [was] waiting for my moment and our plan worked. I just defend, defend, defend and then attack. It worked."
"Doesn't matter who it will be," he added. "I want to be in a title shot. Maybe it's [Daniel] Cormier, maybe [Stipe] Miocic, who knows? But I'm here for the belt."

Blachowicz Evens Score With Manuwa
Just under three years ago, Jan Blachowicz found himself pinned to the fence, losing a unanimous decision to Jimi Manuwa. In the two light heavyweights' second go-around, Blachowicz was happy to fight off the fence, but this time, it turned into a full-out brawl, with the Polish veteran prevailing via unanimous decision.
The 35-year-old Blachowicz (22-7 MMA, 5-4 UFC) was brilliant from the outset, though he courted open exchanges and violence throughout the 15-minute contest. It was Manuwa (17-4 MMA, 6-4 UFC) who had the forward pressure over the whole bout, but "The Poster Boy" simply couldn't deal with the vastly improved jab of Blachowicz, who used it to set up feints, parries and fantastic combinations for three rounds. Early on, Blachowicz snapped Manuwa's head back with the jab, then rushed forward with a four-punch combination, landing two right hooks that dropped the Brit badly, busting his nose wide open.
In the second frame, Blachowicz showed a rugged beard, absorbing a huge head kick from Manuwa but soldiering on, continuing to rely on his jab and hook-uppercut combos. The Brit's forward march never slowed, but Blachowicz played the perfect matador, sticking Manuwa consistently with punches as his foe walked him down. Despite his history of shaky cardio, the Pole stayed on point and never fatigued, even in spite of the 205-pounders dinging each other with nasty strikes throughout the contest. When the scorecards came in, it was 30-27 and 29-28 twice for Blachowicz, who after a 2-4 start in the Octagon, has won three straight in just over five months.
Hyped Duquesnoy Gets Back on Track
When he signed with the UFC last year, two-division British Association of MMA champion Tom Duquesnoy was the most exalted prospect in the sport, but at UFC 216 last October, Cody Stamann cooled his heels. "The Fire Kid" wasn't exactly on fire in London, but still managed to pull out a unanimous decision win over an extremely tough Terrion Ware.
The 24-year-old Duquesnoy landed beautiful, low leg kicks at will, but none of them seemed to deter the forward pressure of Ware, who consistently marched him down, touching him with the jab and combinations before it. Ware also showed atypical dimensions to his game, mixing in body and head kicks, while consistently sinking punches to the Frenchman's guts.
In both the first and second round, Ware ended up on top at junctures and dished out some damage to Duquesnoy, though on the whole, the much-hyped prospect showed improved defensive wrestling and scrambling after being grounded for much of his upset loss to Stamann last October.
Despite a willingness to play into his opponent's hand by backing himself up to the fence and allowing Ware to throw his hands, Duquesnoy's slick, snappy volume and consistent, chopping leg kicks clearly curried the judges' favor. "The Fire Kid" won with scores of 29-28 twice, as well as a highly questionable 30-27 card, much to the American's chagrin.

Edwards Takes Card's Second Buzzer-Beater Stop Over Sobotta
Leon Edwards might be the most underrated fighter on UFC roster, but he certainly made an impression in London with a third-round finish over Peter Sobotta -- the card's second, literal last-second finish -- and then, perhaps talked his way into his first UFC main event.
The 170-pound Edwards (15-3 MMA, 7-2 UFC) was true to his typical form, showing all facets of a well-rounded, workmanlike game, though Sobotta (17-6-1 MMA, 4-5 UFC) was in the fight until literally the last second. Sobotta pressured from the outset, only to walk into a right-hook counter that put him on the floor. Edwards was forced to defend a slick armbar from the Germany-based Pole, but pulled out and kept hammering away. In the second stanza, Edwards flexed his wrestling chops, taking Sobotta down and hammering away, though he was forced to escape a brilliant kimura transition from Sobotta where he hip bumped up to take the Birmingham, England, native's back.
The third proved decisive. Sobotta landed a beautifully-timed takedown on an encroaching Edwards, but the Brit was up to his feet in a flash, then forced his man to the mat and got down to business. Eventually, elbows from "Rocky" opened up Sobotta, who began streaming blood onto the mat. Sobotta tried valiantly to regain his feet, but wound up turtled late, eating copious amounts of punches. With one second left on the clock, referee Rich Mitchell intervened, giving Edwards his fifth straight win in the Octagon. With the UFC having announced its debut in Liverpool's Echo Arena on May 27, Edwards seized the opportunity to call his potential headlining shot.
"Darren Till, heard you want to fight. In Liverpool, let's go. Me and you, Liverpool versus Birmingham, let's go," yelled Edwards, grabbing the microphone from interviewer Dan Hardy, staring at Till seated cageside. "All day, easy work. I'm the best fucking welterweight in the U.K., soon to be in the world. End of. Bye!"

One of my favorite TFs was G1 Downshift. You could get him via mailorder, saving up Robot Points and sending them and five bucks to Hasbro and they'd mail you a figure they figured they couldn't sell in a package.
The Omnibots (those mailaway figures) are a little smaller than the regular G1 cars save for Skids (misconception about Skids: he's a minivan. Us Americans had seen compact cars, but not the City Turbo.). Yet Downshift, Overdrive, and Camshaft all had "battlemodes," where a part of the car flipped out and a weapon could be displayed. The appeal of Overdrive, already a red sports car, he had WINGS that flipped out, so that made him one of the first Triple Changers (well, along with Tracks) even though neither is designated as such. I had Overdrive and Downshift; I wouldn't get Camshaft until literally a year ago when I was full on collecting and realized "Hey, I don't have the 3rd mail away Omnibot."
I thought Overdrive was pretty cool but, looking at him now, he's kind of a flimsy bot. Or Flimsybot (tm). Somehow he stayed together over the years, but I lost two of his three weapons. When I got Camshaft out of the need for completion, well, I was disappointed. He was a little hard to transform, and honestly didn't look that cool as a robot. Plus his head pops up and doesn't stay up; I had to rest it against the missile in the launcher directly behind his head.
Downshift was always a solid figure compared to the other two, and I don't think he gets the love he deserves. His transformation is not unlike that of G1 Wheeljack, and his hands can actually hold things!
This gave me an idea for a custom, of course. And a theoretically easy one...
Now, if you've seen my customs, they're a little on the wrong side of how to do things. I just slap some paint on a figure and maybe the paint holds after a few coats before I put a gloss 'enamel' to keep that paint on. I did the Paul Stanley Prime as a joke. I made my own versions of "Clamp Down" and "Deep Cover" and there is debate if I should have ruined two perfectly good Generations Red Alerts.
Generations Wheeljack and set to painting. I had to apply a LOT of white. I used acrylic. I used a lot of white paint. FOR THE HEAD, I got an Armada Deluxe Optimus Prime. NOW, here's the thing: most Generations and Animated figures seem to have neck/head joints that are comparatively the same size. I'm making a guess here. Generation Wheeljack's neck ball joint is larger than most other figures from the Generations line. The Armada Prime head could fit on a Classics Sunstreaker or, well, most other, but I had to drill the head opening and open it up before it would fit on the ball joint and stay on, and still turn. Then I cut or shaved off the points on the side of his head. The biggest disparity I think is that G1 Downshift's head is a square, and practically that of a Scramble City combiner figure. Even though the cartoon and later models are a little more rectangular, Prime's head was definitely rounder. Hopefully y'all give me a break on that. ALSO, I was trying to be delicate while painting his head, and didn't want to ruin the eyes, so there's a bit of blue I didn't paint over. :S
Opine, please!

When you go Burning Man the whole experience is based on free economy.
No one buys or sells anything once you are at the festival.
It feels great and frees lots of energy!
When there is no commercial agenda behind your interactions, no intention to buy or sell anything, it suddenly expands the energetic space and brings us to a whole new free way of relating.
With VITAL GATE, I am experimenting a bit with the same idea.
The idea is to create a sacred ground where you can really relax and connect!
No need to defend yourself against commercial attacks.
You know, right now the stats say that when you live in a city, you are exposed to 3000 commercial ads every day!
3000! That's lots of background noise invading your space!
What happens when we bring this to silence?
Lots of piece and space kicks in.
No need to make buying decisions which allows you to put down some of your usual weapons and direct this energy towards the conquest of your spiritual exploration.
Here is a question I asked in a the new VITAL GATE group I recently created:
"Quick question! – A friend asks if he can promote massage sessions here – My feeling is to keep the group free from commercial advertising at this stage – Turn the space more into a burning man experience free gift and free economy experience – That's what the spirit tells me right now and I am not totally sure yet! – What are your insights? And give US a quick vote below thanks! – This group is a virtual extension of VITAL GATE so we will use these insights for the physical space too"
People had 2 options to vote for: commercial and non commercial.
Here are the results:
I know… This is a forum and not the exact question but that's an idea or concept that could be applied to VITAL GATE so that everyone can relax.
This could mean "NO COMMERCIAL ACTIVITIES IN VITAL GATE"
Of course, there could be donation, sliding scale or fixed price for staying at VITAL GATE and attending workshops or events.
But this would be more like you pay when you arrive and that's it.
Have to feel into it.
To be followed

The candidates who are running for mayor and city council sounded similar sentiments on where Gaylord should be going in the future and the challenges the city faces.
Many spoke of revitalizing downtown, which is a worthy venture.
A vibrant downtown not only helps the city coffers, but brings tourists and their money out for perhaps one-of-kind gifts or special food at unique eateries.
A vibrant downtown may also lure the locals with fun places to hang out to enjoy good times with family and friends.
New businesses have sprung up downtown during this economic downturn, but with our teetering economy, empty storefronts continue to be the norm, not the exception and that does little to attract many shoppers — locals or tourists.

Suffer The Children
It's a stark contrast from all I see at home, or from what I saw during my recent visit to America. And whenever I'm at home, our family rituals include warm embraces, playing games, or making biscuits or cakes in the kitchen together. I'm not suggesting a Currier and Ives Christmas card scene, but it's certainly an image of warmth and security.
Interestingly, there's a controversial thesis by French historian Philippe Ariès , that claims my schmaltzy attitude towards my children couldn't really have existed until the seventeenth century. Aries argues that because child mortality rates were so high, parents were not able to make the sort of emotional investment that we do in our children. Until the early modern period, children were simply adults waiting to happen.
All of which suggests a rather different take on Jesus' claim that unless we become like children, we will never enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Unfortunately, most of the time, Christians over-sentimentalise the role of children in the New Testament. It easily becomes cloying chocolate-box stuff: Jesus praises children because they are wide-eyed, innocent and trusting - a perfect analogy for faith. Well, I have difficulty swallowing that image.
Aries tips us off to the insight that children play an important role in the teachings of Jesus because they were nobodies. Life was too tough to waste love on a child who might not survive - so children became insignificant, marginalised, and terribly vulnerable. This then, is the unsettling message of what Christians are called to become if they want to find the Kingdom of Heaven. They are called to side with the nonentities and the defenceless, not with the cute and cuddly. After all, that's the real message of Christmas: the creator of Heaven and earth gets born as a pathetic child by a disgraced mother in a grotty shed.
In countries where its people have been victims of tyranny and manipulation it is difficult to get that first foothold in the rung to climb from deep within the abyss. Most of the children are unable to communicate their needs and therefore remain victims of predator adults or of those fortunate enough to be picked first. And for others, their perception of safety comes from the warmth they find with other homeless children, deep within the bowels of earth, among the steam pipes that criss-cross the city.
As we face what meteorologists claim will be one of the coldest winters in two decades, perhaps it's time for us to forget the cringe-making kitsch of the Jesus 'friend-of-little-children' image we so conveniently create for ourselves. When Jesus spoke of the kingdom belonging to children, it was to children such as these.

Product Hunt for indie games
#5 Product of the DayMay 04, 2015
You need to become a Contributor to join the discussion - Find out how.
Ryan HooverPro@rrhoover · Founder, Product Hunt
Nice work, @rokkeds. 👍 We've seen a few "Product Hunt for games" surface in the past few months -- Gamamia and GameYay. I like the focus on indie games, in part because it's even more difficult for independent game makers to break through the noise and there are a LOT of good gems that never surface. cc @russfrushtick Where do you (and anyone else reading this comment) find new games?
@rrhoover @russfrushtick Thank you, Ryan! In answer to your question, there are a few really nice major indie communities like gamejolt.com, itch.io and steam green light. Also hundreds of dev. blogs and forum threads) PS. BTW, I have tried to simplify it to a single post-list like PH doing as well)
Aloha! My name is Alex and I'm creator of Indiebound. "Indiebound is a community where indie games meet their players. It's a place for game creators to share the latest desktop and mobile games with the rest of the gaming-world!" Feel free to submit your fav. games and have fun! =)
Dylan Husted@__________dylan · Founder, President & CTO of SaveOhno.org
Great job on design! I like the hybrid landing page of having a quick explanation banner and then getting right to the actual content. The tags are also great, although they can become redundant. For example someone will tag their game as "windows", "mac", "linux", and "cross-platform" when all they needed was the cross-platform tag. Any plans to address this?
Kyle Waring@kylewaring · Founder, ShipSnowYo.com
Good concept, looking forward to seeing some awesome games get posted here... are you curating them yourself? Overall, the content is solid.. just would be better if you could present them more visually -- bigger thumbnails or better yet > animated gifs would be kick ass.
@kylewaring , thanks! Now we curating games by our small team and trying to grow community with active submitters. We have great plans and some cool features for future updates. Btw thanks for feedback and good advice!

1. Watermelon
Watermelon is rich in many nutrients and minerals that naturally improve sexual performance.
For instance: citrulline, beta-carotene, and lycopene have been proven to be helpful in treating prostate cancer through studies.
Citrulline has been studied to improve blood drive to the genital region and likewise, it also relaxes the blood.
A team of scientist at the Texas A&M University discovered watermelon contains properties to be good for sexual performance.
This was evident through the studies being carried out on weak erection, libido and the way it stimulates blood vessels.
Dr. Bhimu Patil; a director with the Texas A&M's said: "Arginine boosts nitric oxide, which relaxes blood vessels, the same basic effect that Viagra has, to treat erectile dysfunction and maybe even prevent it."
When you eat watermelon, where citrulline is one of the nutrients you'll have, this will be converted into arginine, which is an amino acid that is healthy for blood circulation, the heart, obesity, Type 2 diabetes and immune system.
2. Maca
This herb called "Viagra of Peru" because of its efficacy in improving sexual performance and it's well cultivated in that region especially a landscape that is mountainous in nature with altitudes of 7,000 to 11,000 feet.

Many of these vegetables and fruits can be hard to get in their natural state, that's why some have been chemically processed into capsules with an utmost minimal loss to their nutrients and properties.
Nevertheless, if you can get them raw or in a powder state, that'll be better and avoid adding any other properties such as salt or sugar.

text: I want to apologize if this is a redundant question because i know its almost exactly like the "Droid, Wifi, and VOIP?" thread but im fairly new to all this (the moto droid is my first forray into smartphones) and i guess i didnt grasp alot of it (so i guess im also apologizing for askin a stupid question ). All i want to be able to do is be able to call one specific person who does not have a phone capable of having like a skype (or similar account ) over my wifi network that lives a few states away. I have zero signal at my house and im sick of using my house phone and paying the outrageous long distance bill, I have unlimited mins on my cell phone so thats not an issue. I also have no need to recieve incoming calls over wifi, just making out going calls. Also my droid is a work phone so i cant have anyservices that would be charged to my phone bill. Will anyone take pitty on me and help a brother out??

The Smiths
never really gotten into them, due to not really liking "How Soon Is Now?", but there were three brand new CD's at the library for rent, so I'll givvum a fair chance - where do I start? I have:
Meat Is Murder
Strangeways Here We Come
The World Won't Listen
Thanks x
You should be able to pick up 'The Queen is dead' for a fiver at absolute most in HMV etc these days, its constantly on sale. I would say its a much better bet than any of those three and something you'll want to own.
I love all that I've hear of the Smiths,
but The Queen is Dead is a must!
Then get the queen is dead
Then hatful of hollow
Then Meat Is Murder
Then The Smiths
Then Louder than bombs
you don't really need the world wont listen if you've got louder than bombs
I love them more than anything
really recommend any of those as a starting point!
But, seeing as you asked, start with Meat is Murder. Then listen to Strangeways. It's chronological so makes sense that way! Half of both of them are brilliant.
Mr Scagden is right - The Queen is Dead should be where you start!
I used to like them quite a lot in my INDIE days.
Now I don't like them at all.
....sometimes its cool to work your way back. I did with Queen Is Dead - my very first Smiths album way back in the day (awww. You could get a bag o' chips and a fight for a fiver in them days, y'know).
i dont usualy say this
but the best of was great. The Queen is dead is probably the best album.
strangeways is my favourite
paint a vulgar picture... possibly my favourite Smiths song, definitely top 5.
the very best of
is terrible. it has a shocking tracklisting missing out many of their greatest moments like death of a disco dancer. i'd say start with the world won't listen, then hatful, then pretty much anything.
... the re-mastering is appalling. Both Morrissey & Marr have disassociated themselves from it. If you really need a 'best of' collection, get Best I & Best II.
meat is murder
hatful of hollow
the queen is dead
louder than bombs
strangeways here we come
the smiths
ive always found strangeways really really weak
meat is murder is fantastically underrated, i would say equal to queen is dead, so start with that of what youve got.
It may be a compilation but
'The World Won't Listen' is brilliant. 'Asleep' and 'Unloveable' are amazing (and they were b-sides for fucks sake...)
Try Hatful of Hollow
their best release I reckon.
praise you
I've never seen anybody else put that as their favourite Smiths record. I feel less alone in the world right now.

Today is a good day. Want to know why? It's the last day we have to wait for the anticipated THIS GIRL by the lovely Colleen Hoover! I'm so freakin' excited that I can barely contain myself!
Above is the new covers of all three books and I'm so in love with them! They are perfect! The old ones were unbelievable too!
Since THIS GIRL will be debuting tomorrow I want to go back over SLAMMED and POINT OF RETREAT. I fell in love with Ms. Hoover the moment I picked up SLAMMED and I've been hopelessly Facebook/twitter/and every other social media site stalking her ever since! She is an amazing author and anyone who reads her work will become obsessed with her characters! Here is her bio from her website that you can go to here:
Writer. Mother. Ninja. Wife. Avett Fanatic. Hardcore Realist.Read more about Colleen. email her at firstname.lastname@example.com
As you can see, SLAMMED is the first book in the series and it is here we are introduced to Layken who has had to move from the only home she's ever known with her mother and brother after the recent death of her father. That's where she meets Will, her neighbor, and begin a friendship that would soon turn into something more.
SLAMMED knocked me off my feet. It was emotional, passionate, and shock all wrapped up into this pretty package with even prettier poems. I laughed, cried, shouted, and nearly threw my ipad a few times while reading this. Ms. Hoover took me to places I didn't want to go because it was just some emotionally wrecking but in the end I loved it and wanted more..I craved more Layken and Will.
Then POINT OF RETREAT came out and I knew I would be hooked in the way I was with SLAMMED and I was…completely!! In POINT OF RETREAT Will and Layken have to fight for each other, hard. At times, I felt that it would all fall apart but then her mother would have 'words of wisdom' and everything would make sense. I didn't think I could cry any harder than I did when I read SLAMMED but oh, I was wrong. POINT OF RETREAT had my heart breaking and then filling up with love again. It was a never ending circle, and I hated that it had to end.
Again, I can't express how excited I am that THIS GIRL will be out tomorrow!! I've got it pre-ordered and I can promise you that I'll have it done within 24 hours. When I do get it done be expecting a review/rant/rave! For those of you who haven't read the first two books of this emotionally packed beautiful series I suggest ya'll get over to b&n or Amazon or any other bookstore around and get them because you are definitely missing out!
