Letterman Pulls McCain's Card
Seriously though.
Events occur more than one at a time in the world.
Grandpa really can't go to D.C. sign some paper, fly back and debate for 90 minutes?
And if Palin is so ready, why can't she hold the fort?
She's established herself as an expert on Russia because she can see it.
Has she ever looked at money? Because that knowledge by osmosis power she has would be awesome right now.

Rap Line of the Year
"Mad Men want to be me like I'm Don fucking Draper."
To understand this video hit the link below.
And check this if you have no clue who Don Draper is then please correct that.
And their gutter sex talk matches anything Cam'ron/Dipset puts out.
"Good things come in threes,
So I'll need you on your back, your stomach and your knees."
Please use that line this weekend.

Alms For the Rich
(He thought this was over?)
What kind of white privilege fuckery is causing Obama to feel he is responsible for paying for Hillary Clinton's debt?Is this some bizaaro version of "white guilt?"No one told her to pay Mark Penn a million a month and buy golden donuts for her staff and to keep running well after it was impossible for her to win.And now he has to beg his donors to pay off her debts?Between this, FISA, and the 2nd amendment dust up, Obama and I might need a little break.

R. Kelly = Not Guilty
Motherfuck me. This insane child rapist lives to make another shitty soap opera, while Michael Vick sits in jail.
I wonder what would have happened if Vick had an underage female Fight Club and R. Kelly was raping dogs?
To paraphrase Dave Chappelle,

Seriously Africa, What the Fuck?
Stories like this make me give up on Africa,
Discrimination against albinos is a serious problem throughout sub-Saharan Africa, but recently in Tanzania it has taken a wicked twist: at least 19 albinos, including children, have been killed and mutilated in the past year, victims of what Tanzanian officials say is a growing criminal trade in albino body parts.
Many people in Tanzania — and across Africa, for that matter — believe albinos have magical powers. They stand out, often the lone white face in a black crowd, a result of a genetic condition that impairs normal skin pigmentation and strikes about 1 in 3,000 people here. Tanzanian officials say witch doctors are now marketing albino skin, bones and hair as ingredients in potions that are promised to make people rich.
If albinos had magical powers, why the fuck would they die in their 30's of skin cancer?
"This is serious because it continues some of the perceptions of Africa we're trying to run away from," he said.
But the killings go on. They have even spread to neighboring Kenya, where an albino woman was hacked to death in late May, with her eyes, tongue and breasts gouged out. Advocates for albinos have also said that witch doctors are selling albino skin in Congo.
"People say we can't die," he said, referring to a superstition that albinos simply vanish when they get older. "But we can."
Police officials said the albino killings were worst in rural areas, where people tend to be less educated and more superstitious. They said that some fishermen even wove albino hairs in their nets because they believed they would catch more fish.
Some of these mother fuckers deserve some malaria.

Live by the Cross...
I find it sad that you need to subscribe to some specific brand of mysticism to be taken seriously in American politics.
Obama, who grew up fatherless and without a connection to his racial identity had to overcompensate in a sense, by joining this seemingly crazy-ass Chicago church and linking up with Reverand-Black Brains are different from White Brains-Wright, so that the black zombies in Chicago would vote for him.
It clearly worked for him until it didn't and the god of tribalism came back to collect its dues by associating Obama with every person who walked past his church..
While this bias in association has some racial background, it's really more about the failings of the black church to provide anything useful for their flock.

Motherfuck Dunkin Donuts...
And caving in to her most recent screed. According to Michelle Malkin, Rachel Ray's scarf in the Dunkin Donut ad below was "too Middle Eastern" and made it easier for Dunkin Donuts to suicide bomb delicious confectioneries in the stomach's of America (I made that last part up.)
Here's what Malkin actually said,
So it was with some dismay that I learned last week that Dunkin' Donuts spokeswoman Rachael Ray, the ubiquitous TV hostess, posed for one of the company's ads in what appeared to be a black-and-white keffiyeh.
The keffiyeh, for the clueless, is the traditional scarf of Arab men that has come to symbolize murderous Palestinian jihad. Popularized by Yasser Arafat and a regular adornment of Muslim terrorists appearing in beheading and hostage-taking videos, the apparel has been mainstreamed by both ignorant (and not so ignorant) fashion designers, celebrities and left-wing icons.
Here is Rachel Ray's pic from the ad with Dunkin Donut's apology.
- ''In a recent online ad, Rachael Ray is wearing a black-and-white silk scarf with a paisley design. It was selected by her stylist for the advertising shoot. Absolutely no symbolism was intended. However, given the possibility of misperception, we are no longer using the commercial.''
Why do conservatives, after nearly a decade of social, economic and foreign policy failure still have this kind of power?
If I was Rachel Ray I'd tell DD to eat my fucking donut hole.

Obama (Hearts) Jews, Really...
(Oi with the blackness and the name!)
As Obama begins to shed the filth that was Hillary and the Democratic primary and heads towards the general, he continues to be evaluated through his "problems" with various demographics.
- Obama's women problem
- Obama's working class problem
- Obama's rural problem
The truth is these group's have problems with Obama because of their own fucking ignorance.
Women believe that Hillary failed because she's a woman and not because she's a spineless, war-mongering self-obsessive. They think McCain won't overturn abortion because he's a "maverick."
Working class people who think Clinton, being a $100 millionaire who can't use a coffee machine or a gas pump really gets them deserve four more years of being chewed up and spit out by our capitalistic machine.
I won't even touch rural whites.
And now the newest bullshit issue is Obama's Jewish problem.
Email smears going around questioning Obama's committment to Israel have forced him to adopt a more hard-line love for Israel with less of the nuance he seems to bring to other issues.
- Some Jewish voters are turned off by his willingness to negotiate with countries like Iran and Syria. Others reject Obama because of e-mails spreading false rumors about him.
Before I go in I have to defer to Friedman's column in the Times that summed up a good part of this issue,
- Pssst. Have you heard? I have. I heard that Barack Obama once said there has to be "an end" to the Israeli "occupation" of the West Bank "that began in 1967." Yikes!
Pssst. Have you heard? I have. I heard that Barack Obama said that not only must Israel be secure, but that any peace agreement "must establish Palestine as a homeland for the Palestinian people." Yikes!
Pssst. Have you heard? I have. I heard that Barack Obama once said "the establishment of the state of Palestine is long overdue. The Palestinian people deserve it." Yikes! Yikes! Yikes!
Those are the kind of rumors one can hear circulating among American Jews these days about whether Barack Obama harbors secret pro-Palestinian leanings. I confess: All of the above phrases are accurate. I did not make them up.
There's just one thing: None of them were uttered by Barack Obama. They are all direct quotes from President George W. Bush in the last two years. Mr. Bush, long hailed as a true friend of Israel, said all those things.
It took months of liberal digging and prodding until they forced Hagee's record out into the open and made McCain reject Hagee's endorsement after actively seeking it.
But what can you expect in this country when white radicalism is the norm. This is a country that had picnics around bodies of black men swinging from trees.
Fuck a MySpace, killing blacks was the original social network.
Thomas Friedman had another point,
- Personally, as an American Jew, I don't vote for president on the basis of who will be the strongest supporter of Israel. I vote for who will make America strongest. It's not only because this is my country, first and always, but because the single greatest source of support and protection for Israel is an America that is financially and militarily strong, and globally respected. Nothing would imperil Israel more than an enfeebled, isolated America.
THANK YOU. Hyphen-Americans should care more about America and less about the hyphen. Why is it that Israel gets its own unique fucking consideration as a foreign policy issue?
Why do Jewish/Israeli-AMERICANS worry first about Israel?
I'm Carribean/American and no one has explained their jerk chicken/shrimp roti policy to me yet.
Can I get a free trip to Trini Carnival in 2009?
Can John McCain do the dutty wine with a Red Stripe in hand/
And we make Machel Montano's "Craziness" the national anthem?
Also, what do politicians think about Nigeria, Iceland or Australia?
Oh what's that?
Nobody gives a fuck.
I understand that Israel is in a geopolitical shit zone that needs constant monitoring and support but they are not our perfect and holy ally.
They fuck up. Badly.
See their last war.
Our blind support of and refusal to seriously criticize Israel does more harm than good.
Israel is a country that has been exposed as a nation that SPIES ON AMERICA.
(Worth watching)
Think of another Middle Eastern country that could do that and still receive more foreign aid than any other nation in the world.
Yet Jewish people still insist on supporting candidates that enrage the Middle East and give Israel carte blanche.
If you care more about Israel than America did George Bush really make your country safer?
Is that region of the world better off now than it was 8 years ago?
I understand Obama's need to fight double standards and ignorance at every corner he turns but these smears on his real record force him to take positions that alienate him with those who realize that Israel is flawed, like every country in the world.
But the resistance toward Mr. Obama appears to be rooted in something more than factual misperception; even those with an accurate understanding of Mr. Obama share the hesitations. In dozens of interviews, South Florida Jews questioned his commitment to Israel — even some who knew he earns high marks from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, which lobbies the United States government on behalf of stronger ties between the U.S. and Israel.
"You watch George Bush for a day, and you know where he stands," said Rabbi Jonathan Berkun of the Aventura Turnberry Jewish Center.
Many here suspect Mr. Obama of being too cozy with Palestinians, while others accuse him of having Muslim ties, even though they know that his father was born Muslim and became an atheist, and that Mr. Obama embraced Christianity as a young man. In Judaism, religion is a fixed identity across generations.
Anyone that thinks Obama has any racial advantage in his run for presidency needs to peek out their window.

Fun with Race: Volume Infinity (Morehouse Gets a White Valedictorian)
White boy becomes first white valedictorian of Morehouse.
- From his first day at Morehouse College — the country's only institution of higher learning dedicated to the education of black men — Joshua Packwood has been a standout.
His popularity got him elected dorm president as a freshman. His looks and physique made him a fashion-show favorite. His intellect made him a Rhodes Scholar finalist. His work ethic landed him a job at the prestigious investment banking firm Goldman Sachs in New York City.
But it's his skin that has made all of this an anomaly. This month, Packwood is set to take the stage and address his classmates as the first white valedictorian in Morehouse's 141-year history.
Obama supporters discover "America."
- For all the hope and excitement Obama's candidacy is generating, some of his field workers, phone-bank volunteers and campaign surrogates are encountering a raw racism and hostility that have gone largely unnoticed -- and unreported -- this election season. Doors have been slammed in their faces. They've been called racially derogatory names (including the white volunteers). And they've endured malicious rants and ugly stereotyping from people who can't fathom that the senator from Illinois could become the first African American president.

Reality Check: Horse Racing = Dog Fighting
So there was another dumbass horse race today that I saw written up on ESPN and the 2nd place horse, Eight Belles, snapped both her ankles while racing against the boys and had to be put down.
Hillary somehow blamed Obama for it.
Sure this is sad in a very vague and fleeting way, until you think of all the real suffering in the world, but what really gets me is all the horse-racing apologists on the ESPN comment page who try to ignore the fact that horse racing is destructive and unnatural to horses.
Some of the fucktarded comments stated,
- The horse was brave
- The horse made a great sacrifice
- This was a completely unexpected tragedy
Here are the facts,
"Cruelty is an inherent part of the horse racing industry. Thousands of horses are produced annually, from which a few racers are chosen, the rest blown away like chaff in the wind. The big money is in racing the 2 and 3 year olds, for whom training begins at 1½, before their bodies are fully developed and their growth plates have closed. Unnatural weight is put on their backs, concussive stress on their bones, and they are forced to submit to an overly strict training regimen. Nightmarish injuries like on-the-track fractures leave them finished by the age of 4–6, when they are barely mature. Decisions about their fate are made in the interest of the bottom line dollar, not their health. Injured animals are loaded up on drugs to run one more race.
"The unnatural stresses inherent in competing so aggressively and at such a young age also engender problems such as gastric ulceration and pulmonary (lung field) bleeding, not observed in horses worked at reasonable levels. These health and injury problems once again necessitate — economically — the use of drugs to maintain the horse's racing value (but not well-being).
So let's see, animals are breed to compete solely for the pleasure of humans and are killed if they can't perform. Sound familiar?
Let's be real here, horse racing is a glorified, upper-class white folk version of dog-fighting.

Don't Blame Rap: It's Just a Mirror to the Hood
I think I saw some people burning dollars by the soup kitchen in my hood.
Fucking disgraceful.
I think it's time we all stop pretending that rap speaks to everyday black people anymore than a board meeting at Exxon speaks to the everyday white person.

Fox "News" LOL
Expect these same journalistic standards in the WSJ soon.
Here's some more Republican awesomeness to start your day with.
- A congressional candidate is defending his speech to a group celebrating the anniversary of Adolf Hitler's birth, saying he appeared simply because he was asked.
Tony Zirkle, who is seeking the Republican nomination in Indiana's 2nd District, stood in front of a painting of Hitler, next to people wearing swastika armbands and with a swastika flag in the background for the speech to the American National Socialist Workers Party in Chicago on Sunday.
"I'll speak before any group that invites me," Zirkle said Monday. "I've spoken on an African-American radio station in Atlanta."
So blacks are equal to Nazis. I love this country.

Hip-Hop Is Dead and Nas Ain't Helping
(Look at me! I'm controversial!!!)
When Nas released Hip-Hop is Dead everyone ignored Nas' own contribution to rap's downfall (Nastradmus) on the strength of Illmatic alone. Well it's reached a point where being the man who created Illmatic is no longer enough to excuse Nas' bullshit.
By now you've heard of this "Nigger" abortion that Nas has been working on. Apparently something from it leaked and it's worse than you could have ever imagined.
MP3 Link
The hook is borrowed from the old Dr. Pepper commercials with the lyrics "I'm a Pepper, he's a Pepper, she's a Pepper, we're a pepper/ Wouldn't you like to be a Pepper too?" — with Nas' substituting N-word for "Pepper."
Later in the song, he continues: "To all my 'kike' niggers, 'spic' niggers, 'guinea' niggers, 'chink' niggers/ That's right, y'all my niggers, too."
The song's verses are lyrically combative ("Nas is bred for the plan/ To hold a Grand Dragon's head in my hand") while still dropping references to events old and new, like the October slaying of African Reggae artist Lucky Dube.
"Not mad 'cause Eminem said 'nigger,' " Nas raps. " 'Cause he's my nigger, wigger, cracker friend/ We all black within/ We all African/ Some Africans don't like us, no way/ A killing happened in Johannesburg yesterday."
"Be A Nigger Too" — co-produced by Salaam Remi and Big Jack — is the first record to come out from the Nigger recording sessions, but it is a street leak; the official first single is expected soon. News about the album's title unleashed a flurry of controversy last fall.
Sweet fucking Jesus.
I'm all for free speech, so I wasn't knocking Nas on his selection of an album title as much as I was knocking him for being too stupid to offer any insight on the topic and he's proved me right. This album isn't smart enough to warrant the controversy it will bring.
These old NY rappers dreaming about the glory days on 1994 need to step up to the fucking plate and make some music and stop the crying and shock tactics. What Nas is doing isn't advanced the "art" any more than Soulja Boy or the Ying Yang Twins.
The sooner Nas realizes that the better off we'll all be.

My mic is very weak on FHM-2 and works fine on "DEFAULT" and I think I need to check to make sure the BIAS is enabled on FHM-2. Why these 2 settings? I apologize in advance for ALL my posts if they have been beaten to death but I have checked the forums before posting and have not been able to find the answer. Thank you.

Goa – Are you ready to be Cashless?
Are you ready to be cashless?
After demonetization scenario, The Government of India has chosen Goa to be the first state in the country to go cashless from 1st of December. Goa is likely to become the first state in India to go cashless which in under terms means the public we buy their everyday grocery and perishable food like vegetable,fish,meat, milk and others with their mobile phones.
According to the plan, there will be no need to carry your purse for purchases as all transactions will be done on the mobile. The money on purchases will be debited to the person's bank account. How will it work? One may ask, well the government will introduce something similar to Aadhar card system – Unified Payment Interface (UPI).
So, What is unified Payment Interface ?
Unified Payments Interface (UPI) is a system that links multiple bank accounts through your phone. It allows a customer to pay directly from a bank account to different merchants, both online and offline, without the hassle of opting for the normal mode of payment like the credit card, net banking etc.
Here you have to register the mobile with your bank and do the transaction with the press of one number and follow the instructions. Similar to that of online banking. But would Goans welcome the move? Considering that the largest section is skeptical with online transactions, specially the senior citizen??
Will your local fisher women accept cashless transaction? Will the local lady selling locally grown vegetables accept bank transactions? Will the morning poder give you bread through this method, at least the long fights for change and take extra bread will end hopefully. We'll have to wait and watch.
Never the less 2016 is ending with staggering changes the way we used to function.

NetHui , New Zealand's awesome Web conference, takes place July 9-11 in Auckland.
Our view: NetHui sets the benchmark for engaging, inclusive, livestreaming events, particularly amenable to remote participants.
NetHui brings together a variety of players – aka stakeholders – working at the forefront and just curious about – the Internet and how digital communication can be used to improve the quality of life in New Zealand. Keynotes inspire and breakout sessions unleash gems of wisdom from the participants.
While NetHui does not explicitly focus on travel and tourism, we see this event as a good example for business conferences. We would love to see more local tourism reps attend NetHui or copy NetHui methodology in their own events. Perhaps there might be a way to collaboratively develop ideas about Collaboration in NZ Travel and Tourism.
What we'd love to see
• Live editing of transcripts using Google docs has been amazing. Please do this again!
• We'd love to see participants take us out into the streets of Auckland. Last year's NetHui launched the Facebook campaign for Worldwide Wellington Week)
• More Maori connections! Thanks to NetHui we've learned about TangataWhenua and Hika Lite.
• Coverage of NZ tourism and conservation. While we understand that the event is focused on internet/computer policy, our ears perk up when you show how the travel and nature sectors in NZ are taking to the open web.
• Google+ hangouts. It would be great to get some of the participants and speakers together after the hui for a #NetHui hangout?

First of all, hope everyone had a lovely Thanksgiving Lunch/Dinner/Brinner. With that out of the way... let's jump into our main topic for tonight's GS.
I shall not be tempted by these "amazing" BF deals TAY. Nope! There's no way I'll buy a PS4 or an Xbox One, heck not even that copy of Shantae I've been looking forward to play. Although... I may get a couple of Nintendo eShop cards and maybe I should renew my PS+ account.
I hate black friday...

Visited Barcelona Sep2-6. Explored the Barri Gotic, Barcelona's 'old town' equivalent, which is built atop the ruins of the old Roman settlement, and houses the city's cathedral. Also wandered around Montjuïc, where the complex for the Olympic Games was built.
A Coruña (y Betanzos)
Visited A Coruña Aug26-28, with a trip to Betanzos Aug27. A Coruña is a big industrial town in Galicia, with a huge port and beautiful beach (and the weather was spectacular for bonus points). Betanzos is a small medieval hill-town, complete with thin steep streets; it's recently expanded a great deal but most of the newer development is rather neglected.
Santiago de Compostela
Visited Santiago de Compostela Aug23-25. According to legend the cathedral holds the remains of the Apostle James, and has long been a pilgrimage destination. The city is the final stop on the famous 'Way of St James' pilgrimage, a walk along the north of Spain. The cathedral is in the beautiful medieval Old Town.

Arundel Castle
Visited Arundel Castle, home of the Dukes of Norfolk. It's one of few castles to have been used both as a defensive castle and as a stately home (the family still live there), and with its constant use and extensions over the centuries, it's exactly what a castle is supposed to be.

The only time of the year you can touch the stones; the atmosphere was truely awe-inspiring and I hope the images give some idea of what it was like.
various sites around Wilton; Wilton House's gardens are particularly beautiful, and ridiculously stereotypical -- they're often used to shoot period films

Reims, Festive
A couple separate events from May and June; the city likes to throw a festival and show of its history. In the first case, the anniversary of the German surrender in 1945; the second, the Fetes Johanniques, centered around Joan of Arc's successful entrance into the city and the crowning of the Dauphin, but really just a big 'medieval' event.

Celebrate a Decade of Building Trails with Music and BBQ at the American River TrailFest

Over the past decade with support from the local community and public agencies, ARC has preserved nearly 3,000 thousand of acres of open space and built over 20 miles of hiking, biking and equestrian trails near the South Fork.
On Sunday, June 9th, the American River Conservancy hosts the tenth annual American River TrailFest at Earthtrek Expeditions in Lotus, CA. TrailFest is a family-friendly event that features live music, BBQ dinner, microbreweries and local wineries, live and silent auctions, and Kids' Zone activity tent.

As Brown attempted to maintain control of the aircraft, he took a quick glance out the window. To his dismay, he saw a German Messerschmitt piloted by 2nd Lt. Franz Stigler, an ace fighter out on an extended revenge spree to avenge his brother August, who was killed early in the war by American pilots. Resigned to his fate, Brown looked his would-be-executioner in the eyes as he ... gave Brown a friendly nod and escorted his aircraft to safety. What the fuck?
The minute Franz Stigler heard the B-17 engine sputtering over his airbase, he had every vengeful intention of putting a million lead suppositories into its butthole, which would also round up his high score and earn him the German equivalent of the Medal of Honor. But when he maneuvered his plane for the kill shot, it became apparent that Brown and his crew were incapable of putting up any resistance. Their plane was riddled with holes, their gunner was dead and the survivors were all huddled in the flying steel coffin tending to their wounds.
Also, observed but unconfirmed: American airplane ghosts.
To Stigler, to kill them wouldn't only be unfair; it would be equal to murder, which was unacceptable for the German pilot who lived by the warrior code of honor. And so, he began to fly in formation with the bomber, tricking German anti-air crews below into thinking that it was one of their own captured B-17s. He did this until they reached the North Sea, at which point Stigler gave the grateful Americans one last salute and returned back to base. Brown eventually landed safely in Allied territory.

Weight loss is a huge topic in fitness today, with such a huge number of people taking the plunge and deciding to lose weight. Losing weight can be difficult, though. Apply the advice in this article to help you achieve your current weight loss goals.
If you enjoy potato chips, make the switch to healthier baked versions to cut calories and fat. They are up to thirty percent lower in calories and fat and most people say that they can't tell much of a difference.
Don't wear loose clothing if you want to lose weight. A lot of people who are overweight tend to wear loose or baggy clothing to feel comfortable, but it also takes their mind off of their weight. You'll be more conscious of what you actually weigh if you don't wear baggy clothing.
When you know what is and what isn't good for your body, you have a higher chance of successful weight loss. If you are more of a morning person, get up a little earlier and exercise when you first get out of bed. Those who feel strongest in the evening hours will prefer a later workout schedule. If you have never been an early riser, trying to wake up for exercise may be a recipe for failure.
Make your own lunches when attempting to shed some pounds. This helps you control your spending and your caloric intake. Pack a high-protein food as well as fruits and vegetables. Include snacks so that you're not tempted to get something for the vending machine.
Once you are about halfway done eating a meal, stop for a few minutes. Our bodies sometimes get confused and don't know when we are full. Try to make it a habit to stop in the middle of each meal. Take a moment to determine if you are actually hungry. Adjust the amount you eat accordingly.
A great way to record your eating habits is by having a journal to keep track of what you are putting into your body. Each time you eat, jot down your mood, the foods you ate, and the time you ate them. This helps you see exactly what you are eating and will help you see if you eat based on your emotions.
Staying away from those late night snacks is a great way to quickly lose weight. Snacking at night fills your body with calories it is not going to burn off. If you can stop eating late at night then you will notice that you're able to lose more weight than ever.
Be sure to eat breakfast every day to promote a healthy metabolism and consistent weight loss. It may seem like common sense, but many people think that skipping breakfast can save on calories. While you may think you're about to save those calories, you will have increased hunger for lunch and you will eat more after not getting your digestion and metabolism kick started during breakfast. Skipping breakfast might find you grabbing hurriedly for donuts later or eating extra lunch.
If you hit a plateau with your weight loss or if you can't shed those last couple pounds, try increasing your workout's intensity. Eventually, your body is going to get used to your current workouts. If you continue to do the same workouts, your body will not change like it did during the beginning.
It is wise to have a variety of food items while dieting. Many diets promote sticking to certain types of foods, but they do not always give you all of the essential nutrients that your body needs. Having the same thing each day leads to boredom and a lack of nutrients.
When you consume fewer than twenty grams of sugar following a workout, the sugars may positively effect your body. This small dose of sugar gives your body the means to provide energy to all the muscles you used.
Eliminating fatty foods such as french fries not only helps with weight loss, but it also helps eliminate acne. Many studies show that eating lots of protein and little fat is good for your health. Your skin has a natural balance of oils and adding large amounts of high-glycemic foods such as fries or candy will offset that balance and really show in your complexion.
Ensure that your diet is filled with a variety of nutritious options. Many people end up having a failing diet if they eat the same types of foods each day. Plus, eating the same old foods can quickly get monotonous and can lead you to be tempted by the forbidden food items.
You will see the best results from your weight loss plan, if you are completely comfortable with it, so be sure to do your own research. These tips are just some of the things you can do to make your weight loss program just what you want. Do not expect the first attempt you make at weight loss to be a success. Failure only exists if you quit.

Many customer experiences today are being delivered in a way that generates data—a trend that will only grow stronger in the coming years. Increasingly, this data can help companies pinpoint exactly which customers to focus on for maximum profitability. In addition, data allows for powerful segmentation to target the right customers, increase personalization, and arm employees to work smarter alongside predictive analytics that give the best next offer, upsell, or cross-sell information.
Yet many companies struggle with knowing how to glean sustained business value from analytics—and how to get started on their journey to build a customer analytics capability. That's where we come in.
At West Monroe, we help companies bridge the gap between analytics efforts and strategic execution to unlock long-term business value. We do this by focusing on the following five pillars of data-driven customer experience:

The Tempest series was basically an aerodynamic refinement of the Typhoon series. The design of the new wing allowed
for higher speeds and the flexibility to carry drop tanks, rockets and/or bombs. The cockpit featured a full vision bubble canopy. Because Napier's troubles
with reliability with the original Sabre engine series, the Tempest was built with the power egg concept. Five different engines were fitted and tested. Of
those, only the Mk.II Bristol Centaurus Mk.V powered version, the Mk.V Napier-Halford Sabre II and the Mk.VI Napier-Halford SabreV powered versions saw
service. The Mk.I Sabre Mk.IV engine and wing radiators had problems.The Mk.III and Mk.IV Rolls-Royce Griffon engined versions were cancelled due to Spitfire
priorities. Because several engines suffered technical problems, the Mk.V was the first to enter service. It was cleared for service in April of 1944. The RAF
retired the Mk.V series Tempest in early 1948.It returned to service as the TT.Mk.V/5 and served again until 1955.
       The Hawker aircraft company design philosophy, established early in its history was to develop an aircraft design
to its limits. The design teams under the direction of Sydney Camm, (later Sir Sydney Camm) had developed the bi-plane Fury day fighter into their
first monoplane fighter, the Hurricane in 1935. This design was a bridge combining traditional bi-plane construction with the new technologies of all
metal airframes, enclosed canopies, retracting landing gear, more powerful engines and much heavier armament. The speed of advances in military
aviation meant that the Hurricane was almost obsolete as it entered service with the RAF. In 1936, Hawker had already begun design work on its successor,
eventually named Typhoon. Because of the pressures to produce the Hurricane, the RAF and the industry in general was in a great hurry to build as many
aircraft as possible to get something ready for the coming battle. The Typhoon suffered from problems from the start of its life. The overall strain on the
organization would cause problems later. The classic bad set-up of a new airframe combined with a new engine did not help. The rapidly changing operational
demands also strained the design. The Napier Sabre engine suffered development problems. The basic airframe suffered from insufficient strength at the tail
section. The original canopy design, known as the car door, limited the pilot's vision and was difficult to exit in an emergency. The wing, although very
strong, was heavy and thick which limited performance at altitude. The original AirMinSpec was outdated as soon as it was issued. Luckily the Typhoon found
its true calling as a low altitude fighter and became the RAF's premier ground attack fighter. The general trend of the war called for day fighters to fly
faster and higher than ever before. The Typhoon could not do that. But, the ability to carry cannon armament and racks of rockets made the Typhoon a highly
feared opponent of the Panzer units, especially in the battle to keep the beach head in Normandy. Rocket Typhoons created havoc with German logistics in
France. No tank, truck or train was safe. The Typhoons in close air co-operation with the British Army literally became their 'flying artillery'.
       Troubles with the Typhoon/ Sabre combination led Camm and his team to design the new airframe with the power-egg concept.
Kurt Tank had also designed his FW190 series with this in mind. It meant that an airframe could be adapted to accept different engines without major re-design
of a basic airframe. Later in the war, the Tempest (Typhoon II renamed) would do battle against the FW190D which had an inline engine, originally a bomber
engine. The original FW 190A series flew with a BMW radial.
       The Tempest prototypes were planned to be equipped with several different engines to avoid the delays that could
be caused by engine development problems. The Tempest Mk. I would use the Napier Sabre Mk. IV H-type engine The Tempest Mk.II would use the Bristol
Centaurus Mk.V or VI air cooled radial engine. The Tempest Mk.III would use the R/R Griffon IIB V-12 engine. The Tempest Mk.IV would use the R/R
Griffon 61. A later Tempest Mk. VI was added as a tropical/hot weather version with the Napier Sabre Mk. V engine with increased cooling and leading
edge radiators finally perfected.
       The Tempest Mk.I prototype HM595 experienced problems with the Napier Sabre IV engine and leading edge radiators.
The RAF and MAP were not big fans of leading edge radiators. It was decided to build a safety Mk.V version which was basically an aerodynamically
refined Typhoon with the new wing. It was equipped with the now more reliable Napier Sabre II engine and kept the chin radiator. As flight testing
continued, cockpit gained the new full vision 'bubble' canopy and the tail section was strengthened and the rudder shape was refined. The tailplanes
were increased in size.
       The Tempest Mk.III and IV versions did not fly because the Griffon engines were given priority to Spitfire production.
The Tempest Mk.II was showing promise as the fastest Tempest, because the air cooled radial eliminated the chin radiator, but difficulties with the Centaurus
engine would delay it's entry into service until August of 1945.As a result of all these events, The Tempest Mk.V became the first of the series to enter
       The RAF test pilots were very enthusiastic about the Mk.V It put all the promise of the design into place. Easy to
fly, full vision canopy, 20mm armament, wide track landing gear, drop tank, rocket and bomb capable and fast. It would be a hand full for the hard
pressed Luftwaffe. Mr.Camm and Hawker felt the Tempest Mk.V was in the same league as the Spitfire Mk. XVI and the P-51D and equal to or better than
the Bf 109 G10/G14/K4 and the FW 190D-9 and TA 152H-2.
       Beginning in early 1944, the Mk.V began to be delivered to RAF Maintenance Units and by spring to operational
units. No.3 Squadron RAF and 486 Squadron RNZAF re-equipped and formed No.150 (Tempest) Wing. It was joined later in July by 56 Squadron. It was
planned to deploy to the 2nd Tactical Air Force to support the invasion of Europe and the defeat of the Luftwaffe. The Wing was placed under command
of Wing Commander R.P.Beaumont. The Wing began ops in late May against ground targets in France. An attack on May 27, on an airbase at Pontoise,
resulted in hitting Ju-188s on the ground for no loss. The first direct air-to-air engagement with the Luftwaffe occurred on June 8, on air
superiority patrol over the Normandy beaches. Four(or three) Bf 109s were destroyed for no losses. In answer to the invasion, Germany launched a
massive robotic V-1 ( Fieseler Fi-103) rocket attack against England proper. No.150 Wing was called on to defend because of its low level speed. The
battle with the V-1 continued until September when most of the V-1 launch sites were destroyed or over-run. Unbelievably, at this time, the
production of Tempests was slowed by a labor strike at Hawker! By September, 6 squadrons were operational. The Tempest proved to be a most potent
opponent to the Luftwaffe's end of war day fighters. The Tempest units, organized into 122 and 150 Wings attached to the 2nd Tactical Air Force,
fought across Europe into Germany. When German forces surrendered, the Tempest units became part of the British Air Force of Occupation (BAFO) post
       With the end of the war in Europe, the Centaurus powered Tempest Mk.II was planned to be deployed with the Tiger
Force to end the war in the Pacific. The sudden end of the war in September 1945 ended this plan. The Tempest Mk.V, which had always been considered
temporary until the Mk.II was available, was withdrawn, those units re-equipped with Tempest Mk.IIs until replaced by De Havilland Hornets, Bristol
Brigands and the first jets. In the late 1940's, the Tempest Mk.V returned to service as the Tempest TT. Mk.V (TT.Mk.5) and became the last version
to be retired in 1955. The Mk.II (F.2) and the Mk.VI (F.6) served in the Middle East and Far East until the early 1950s.
       With the post war formation of the stand alone Royal Indian Air Force and Royal Pakistan Air Force, surplus Tempest
Mk.II stocks were transferred to them and soldiered on into the mid 1950s.
       Hawker design P.1027 would have been the ultimate development of the Tempest. This design would use the 2,690hp
Rolls/Royce Eagle 46 (also to be used in the Westland Wyvern, had it been successful) with a contra-rotating prop and the cooling radiator moved to
a mid plane ventral position similar to the P-51. The failure of the Eagle engine and the promise of jet power meant this design remained on paper.
       After the war, a Griffon 85 engined Tempest was developed to AirMinSpec F.2/43 as the 'Tempest Light Fighter' and
finally as the Fury but no orders resulted. With a Sabre Mk.VII engine, the Fury achieved 485 mph in level flight, making it the fastest piston
powered aircraft to be built by Hawker. A navalized version powered by a Centaurus radial was developed for the Royal Navy as the Sea Fury. It was
the final design development by Hawker of the direct line of piston powered day fighters which started with the bi-plane Fury to the Hurricane to
the Typhoon to the Tempest to the Fury and Sea Fury. It was an exceptional example of design development. Hawker went on to develop the Sea Hawk,
Hunter, Harrier, Sea Harrier fighters and the Hawk all purpose trainer.
       This kit was built OOB in the early 1980's. I didn't care for the raised panel line details. I used the raised
features as a guide and carefully rescribed all the detail lines with an Xacto blade. I then sanded the surface smooth, followed up with a complete
polish. I decided to finish the aircraft in the same fashion as a real one. I airbrushed the basic camouflage pattern first. I then added the
national markings via decals. I didn't use the kit decals. I subbed from my stash of Microscale sheets. The tactical marks followed and lastly I
sprayed the "D-Day stripes" over the wings and fuselage using Magic Masker and tape to give them a 'hurried' look. Weathering was added to give the
operational look of aircraft in the busy days of June, 1944. The kit makes an accurate looking Tempest without any trouble. With care to detail, any
level modeler can make a good looking model of a good looking airplane.
       The model was painted in this scheme based on a much repeated b/w photo available at that time. The Profile No.197
lists EJ766 as 'JF-Z' which has been verified. BUT, EJ766 was 'Z' later in that summer, not at the time of D-Day. Warpaint No.55 shows the D-Day
JF-Z to be JN862 and that the codes have a thin red outline. Scale Aviation Modeller International Vol.12 Issue 11 profile artwork shows JF-K having
a partially obscured serial ending in 08 and no red outline. Osprey Aircraft of the Aces 27 shows a copy of the exact photo I used back in 1981.
Described as the most famous Tempest photo ever taken, saying that the true identity of this JF-Z was recently (1999) discovered to be JN862, flown
by Belgian Lt. 'Monty' Van Lierde, the 'B' flight commander with 3SQ. RAF. It also notes 3 stripes on the spinner, possibly the colors of the
Belgian flag, but, does not mention red outlines to SQ.codes. None of this was verifiable in 1981. As I have continued to collect reference
materials and discovered this many years later, I refer you to that ancient IPMS wisdom, "You can never have enough reference materials"

Neighbourly help saves energy consumption of 300 homes
Lamb Weston / Meijer and Wiskerke Onions in full swing with residual heat connection
Lamb Weston / Meijer and Wiskerke Onions are working hard on the construction of a residual heat connection between the two adjacent companies. They are installing heat exchangers, pipe systems and a system for measuring and monitoring energy consumption. This system channels the excess heat from Lamb Weston / Meijer to Wiskerke Onions. This saves the two neighbours the annual energy consumption of 300 households.
'We're well on schedule to commission the new installation at the end of June 2018', says Erik de Been, speaking for Lamb Weston / Meijer. 'That's the start of the period when we dry our onion harvest,' adds director Chayenne Wiskerke of Wiskerke Onions. 'That way, we can immediately validate the environmental benefits we achieve with this new installation.'
Green Deal
The residual heat project of the two agricultural companies fits in with the social policy of the Province of Zeeland aimed at promoting the energy transition (reducing the use of fossil fuels). The Province of Zeeland has therefore concluded a Green Deal with the central government, from which the Province of Zeeland has provided a subsidy of almost €800,000 for this project. The project is being facilitated by the Smart Delta Resources platform, an alliance of eleven energy and raw materials-intensive companies in the Southwest Delta region, including Lamb Weston / Meijer.
Heat exchange
After processes such as peeling potatoes with steam peelers and pre-baking potato products, Lamb Weston / Meijer is left with energy that is of too low a quality for other parts of the production process. But the next-door company Wiskerke Onions can make good use of this energy to dry the onion harvest. For that purpose, Lamb Weston / Meijer collects this energy via heat exchangers. These heat up water, which then flows to Wiskerke Onions. Once the heat has been released, the cooled water flows back to these heat exchangers, to be reheated in the production process of Lamb Weston / Meijer.
Savings potential
Once the new installation is put into operation in June 2018, the partners will be able to measure exactly how much energy they are saving. The projected savings potential is approximately 500,000 m3 of natural gas and a reduction in emissions of approximately 875 tonnes of CO2. This saves roughly the annual energy consumption of 300 households. Wiskerke Onions is paying the lion's share of the €1.6 million investment. Wiskerke Onions is also receiving almost €800,000 and Lamb Weston / Meijer about €13,000 in subsidies from the Province of Zeeland.
Made possible by subsidy
Member of the Province of Zeeland's Provincial Executive Ben de Reu describes the partnership between the two international agro-food companies as being unique in the world. 'This subsidy from the Green Deal will make this project cost effective,' says De Reu. 'Without a subsidy, the payback period would be too long and this residual heat system would not be financially viable. In that case the residual heat connection - and all the associated energy savings - would not be achieved. Facilitating project development through the Smart Delta Resources (SDR) platform has been contributed significantly to this.'

Straight ahead and on the track now. We're gonna make our dreams come true. black gold Doin' it our way.
Basement Renovation with Waterproofing
I was lucky to find the guys from CPM doing a renovation for my neighbour. They came and had a look at my job….took it on and made a fantastic renovation. It took longer than we anticipated but we knew there was a water issue – which they addressed and corrected and then did all the finishing work; rearranged the staircase, rebuilt the kitchen, put in new electrical, gas line/fireplace/tankless water heater. They redid the floor throughout the basement, added insulation, new drywall, new cabinetry and even gave us a new window over the stairway. Nothing was too difficult during the process – when a problem arouses, it just became a question of how to solve it and they always had a couple of options. They came when they said they would, bright and early, always ready to put in a good days work, always agreeable to my schedule and changes. The workers were pleasant, unobtrusive and eager to do a good job. The renovation is beautiful. the basement is warmer, dryer and a lovely living space…Thank You to Jay, Yucel, Hussen and all the subs and workers they brought in. A job well done, indeed!

Wijnaldum believes Liverpool can compete for title after relief of top-four finish
As soon as he saw Nathaniel Clyne receive and then release possession to Roberto Firmino, Gini Wijnaldum freed himself from the anxiety that enclosed Anfield to map out his next moves.
In a split second, the Netherlands international measured his run, checked those of his team-mates and plotted his finish past Brad Guzan in Middlesbrough's goal.

His plan was effective and the relief inside the stadium was apparent; Liverpool were heading into half-time 1-0 ahead and into the Champions League play-offs.
"When Clyney plays the ball to Roberto, I thought: 'Okay, I can get involved. He can play the ball to me'. At that moment, I was already ready to receive the ball," Wijnaldum explains in a boardroom at the grandiose Ritz-Carlton hotel in Hong Kong.
"Then, when he played it I had one good touch and I looked in front of goal and I didn't see anybody. [Daniel] Sturridge was there but I didn't see him at the time.
"I was like: 'I am now too far to the side so I will try to shoot not at the far post but the near post, hard and high, and hope it will go in'.
"Because the keepers, they always expect you to go to the far post. But something goalkeepers have always told me when I was playing at youth level was that they expect you to go to the far post. So I thought: 'I'm going to try it and see what happens'. I shot on goal and it worked."
Wijnaldum's immediate thoughts afterwards echoed the sentiments of those on the terraces. "Finally! Finally!" was his first reaction "because we had a few opportunities, not big chances, which hadn't gone in.
"You then realise you are running out of time. It's a big difference if you go into the dressing room, being at 0-0 or 1-0 up.
"It was at the end of the first half, injury time, and I was like: 'Finally. The ball has gone in'. At that moment I was enjoying the crowd, how they were celebrating."
That opener ensured Liverpool would go on to achieve their base aim for 2016-17: being amongst the top four. And Wijnaldum has elevated ambitions for the upcoming campaign.
Klopp salutes Sturridge's fitness
"I won't say that we can immediately win the title, but I think we have a squad who can compete for the title. I'm confident that we will not make the same mistakes like last season, but that's my feeling.
"You do it as a team and not as an individual. We must make sure with each other that we don't make the same mistakes that we made last season. I have the trust and confidence.
"It's not only me, the whole team must have the confidence.
"Last season we started well, but after the New Year in January and February we had a lot of bad results, and I think that's why we didn't play in the competition for the title. I think we were great till January.
"I think we have a good base and we must learn from our mistakes and keep the things that went well, keep them or make it even better.
LFC won't sell Coutinho - Klopp
"Then I think we can fight for the title because we have a good team, only we made a lot of mistakes last season.
"We're going to see how far we are this season. I think we will learn from the mistakes that we have made, but we have to see how to undo them."
In those testing weeks at the turn of the year, Klopp's unswerving belief helped the turnaround. "He did the same that he did before," Wijnaldum detailed.
"In bad times, he tried to help us to keep the confidence to make us aware that we are good players and we have to use our quality because that's the only things that's going to help us in the situation where we were in that time. He stayed the same during the season.
"I didn't see him change even when we had bad results. Maybe I saw him change, but in a positive way to help us out. He's really passionate and that's what you can see on the sideline. He's not a manager who will get angry if you make mistakes, or something like that.
"He will get angry if you don't play with confidence or don't do the things that you're good at."
Wijnaldum feels better game management from Liverpool in the new season will ensure they do not repeat mistakes or have a similarly rough period.
The balance of employing the assertive approach Klopp advocates and doing whatever is necessary to get a result will be crucial.
"We must read the games better," the midfielder said.
"What do you need to win? You don't always have to win beautiful.
"I think Chelsea is a good example. Last season they were the best team. They knew what they had to do. That's what we needed to do. We must make sure we learn from the past and do it this season."
