Well from someone who'd had a few lung surgeries by the ripe old age of 20 I'd say avoid the cigar.

The wide is inside on her computer playing bejewelled or something. She can't be around my smoking due to asthma. It's actually the one thing lacking from perfection and the one thing making it perfect at the se time. :-)

I may go get the telescope, but it is dropping temp really fast. While the coastal states have storms and heat waves, the central states like Ohio are 20 degrees (11 degrees C) below normal temps.

Smoking, drinking, outside probably without sun-cream with a vicious dog. Life does get much better, but you probably won't be around to see it.

Enjoy it while it lasts ; )

It was late in the evening and the sun was on the horizon, so no sunscreen issues. And our doxies are fun loving furballs, not vicious.

Chilling in the local pub with the other half as a gentle breeze whistling through the masts of the yachts in the harbour. Cider and sausage festival in full swing, with a pint of cider in one hand and honey roast sausage,, champ, and onion gravy in the other. The band start singing 'Wild Rover' and the rest of the pub join in...

What I've Been Saying About Gaza:

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/israel-iron-dome-could-prolong-195600244.html Main quote inside, but essentially--the Iron Dome, which has (thankfully) stopped hundreds of rocket attacks in just a few days now, has taken all pressure off Netanyahu to negotiate, while Hamas arguably stands to gain more from prolonging the conflict--ie, shooting rockets knowing they'll be intercepted and reprisals will come--than by making peace. So, settle in, boys and girls...

Babak wanted to say "Hi" to WebDip

Babak asked me to say "Hi" to webdip on facebook. He is doing well, has a 6 month old baby, and just moved to a new country, but once things settle down, he might join us again.
So in the mean time, shape up your diplomatic and tactical skils and let's see who else we can drag back. :)

what is the average age of webdiplomacy players?

Is there a statistic? I want to know. In a game I felt I was playing with the stubbornness of a child. He/she wanted ALL his way. All the negotiation was "this is mine mine mine". He/she couldn't see the repercussions of a bad decision because he/she wanted the gratification of now.

Seriously, knowing the age of a person before starting a game or a negotiation can help a lot. Psychological speaking.

Lib Dems have gone early while Cameron is on the defensive after his re-shuffle. Because of the current coalition of Tories/Liberals there will be a new dynamic to the elections, also the rise of UKIP is a bit of an unknown factor.

Best free webdesign software

I'm very likely going to design another website, but unlike last time, this isn't for school or something, so I can use all the tools I want to make my job easier. What software would you recommend? There's quite a lot to choose from and I don't want to try them all, nor spend extra hours because I'm missing some very useful features...

BNP Paribas extorted by US government for $9 billion fine

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned this.

US crushed French bank even though it violated no international, or bilateral law, simply because trade is done in dollars. This is abuse of power and signifies that the US no longer upholds a free trade system. It will use the fact that trade is done in dollars to destroy people even if they broke no law.

Essay writing tips
