Freebie Marketplace Listia Wants To Take On Craigslist In Local Swaps
Listia, the Y Combinator- and Andreessen Horowitz-backed site where people can exchange free goods, is unveiling a new feature called Listia Local in four cities: San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, and Chicago. In a lot of ways, this seems like a natural extension of Listia's basic concept, where people can earn points by giving away items or participating on the site, then use those points to claim free goods. (You can also pay for points, which is Listia's business model.) Co-founder Gee Chuang says that the team initially thought of Listia as more of a local marketplace, but right now, "almost every single transaction occurs via shipping."occupy oakland occupy oakland morgellons disease arik armstead sag awards red carpet torrey pines nhl all star game 2012
RolePlayGateway?
We are looking for avid, literate, Rpers who have a love for anime, and the slice of life genre. :]
Here is a portion from the Rules section. If you would like to join just post in the occ section.
This is a Slice of Life Rp. There is not much of a plot besides what we as a group suggest for their 100 days of summer. Do not think because this is about high school teens that anyone can join and be an illiterate mess. I would like nice paragraphs per post. I do not expect every single comma to be in place because then I would be a hypocrite, but I would like proper grammar, punctuation, and capitalization, to the best of your abilities.
I would also like to work together with the other 5 member who join this RP. There are many days of summer, and this teenagers are not going to stay locked in their rooms all day long. If you would like to suggest ideas for the days, plot twists, and just anything you would like to add just post in the occ blog, and I will make sure to add it in a suggestion post.
Please note, If you do not plan on creating a character within the day you post then don?t bother posting. I am tired of people saying they want me to reserve a spot for them and then they never post!
Because the nature of the RP is so free I do not have too many rules. As long as you are respectable, literate, include decent paragraphs, and imaginative it will work. Nothing is off limits aside from the fact that I do not want any "sex scenes" in my RP. Do not even go to pm. Sure, highschoolers have sex, but for goodness sake don't defile my rp with your moans. I don't mind classy kissing etc, but keep your junk in your pants.
This Slice of Life RP will become a new adventure that we will all create together. It will be fun! So join me, and experience a new summer with these teens.
Now, I will assign the character for each of the characters. It is up to you to expand on the trait. I have assigned who they are in crushing on, or in a relationship with. It is easier this way because then no one will have to find a 'crush'.
These are the spots. Just like life it does not always work out the way one plans so things may change during the course of the summer.

Before You Consider Debt Consolidation | FoxyDollar
What happens is that the debt consolidation company gives you a loan to pay-off all those multiple debts and that you will repay in single monthly payment with supposedly lower interest rate. Debt consolidation is legal as long as the company offering them follows FTC, state and federal rules. ?It does sound rather tempting right? But before you sign the dotted line on that debt consolidation application, here are some serious things to consider.
First, debt consolidation treats the symptom rather than the cause of the problem. It is paying credit with credit. It does not do anything about the real cause of multiple debts which is overspending.
Next, debt consolidation supposedly lowers the interest rate and lowers the monthly payment. That is just the tip of the iceberg. In most cases debt consolidation lowers the monthly payment not because of lower interest rates but because the term of the loan or the period of paying back the loan has been extended. Overall, a person stays in debt longer and pays the company more.
Statistics reveal that more than 50% of those who availed of debt consolidation ended-up acquiring more debt in the long run. A force of habit perhaps or these people have found an easy way out?
Perhaps the only positive thing about debt consolidation is it might save a debt-strapped individual from filing for bankruptcy which is a much worse fate. Other than that, debt consolidation should not be viewed as an easy way out from maxing credit cards or to get-out from the hassle and stress of keeping track of multiple payments and balances.
Truth is debt consolidation is a last resort. The real way of getting out of consumer debt is to live below one?s means and commit to sound personal finance habits.

Dreaming Beneath The Spires: Mind, Body, Soul, Spirit
Pages
Mind, Body, Soul, Spirit
?
? ?????????????????????????????Mind, Body, Soul, SpiritPrayer ministry training at St. Aldate?s, Oxford, used this vivid illustration. Four people stood in a circle up front, arms around each other?s waists. If you tugged at one, all four came along. They had an unbreakable connection. They represented, of course, the body, mind, spirit and soul or emotions.The skit was meant to illustrate the complexity of human beings. The presenting symptom in prayer ministry is rarely the root cause of the problem. Persistent physical symptoms, like stomach aches, headaches, colds and coughs, can be the result of job or relational stress. Similarly, physical ill health can cause job or relational stress. Intellectual malaise?not using your mind, especially for the intellectually gifted, can cause depression, and its attendant problems. Extreme loneliness, relational stress or depression can affect one?s health, the vibrancy of one?s spiritual life, and even one?s ability to think clearly. And when the spiritual life, the motor of one?s life, is out of kilter or non-existent, one?s social life, physical life and friendships are below par.In prayer ministry, I myself am less interested in praying for the presenting symptom??I am not productive;? ?I need to lose weight;? ?I am lonely/angry??and more interested in praying over and into the underlying root cause. Our symptoms?a weight problem, writers? blocks, depression, and chronic fatigue are often the presenting ?fruit? or flower. The problem lies in the roots, and that?s where healing begins.And so, when one prays for oneself or one?s family, it?s important to pray for vision to see the roots, as well the presenting problem, the fruit, and pray for healing of both. The Catholic monastics evolved a schedule which gave proper weight to each of these dimensions of personality. A contemporary Benedictine schedule calls for 3.15 minutes of manual work, 3 hours of reading and study, including Scripture study, and 4.5 hours of prayer and religious activity (including the Divine Office, Eucharist and Choir Practice). The schedule included 3 meals in community and half an hour of community recreation, which I guess played a part in meeting social and emotional needs.?Excellence, in any one area, which involves concentration and focus on it?intellectually for a scholar or a blogger, spiritually for a mystic or spiritual writer, physically for an athlete, may involve some short-changing of other dimensions.? However, to neglect any of the four elements of our make up as human beings which Scripture recognizes in its statement?love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength-- leaves us, to some extent, stunted, and walking with a limp.I emphasize my spiritual life, and, to a lesser extent, my intellectual life. Socially, we have dinner together as a family almost every day, and Roy and I have a quick lunch together on weekdays. I also make sure I pencil in two coffees or lunches with friends each week. I have neglected physical fitness for years, and am in a slow recovery of strength and fitness project.How about you? Which dimensions of human personality have you most developed? And which ones are you working on developing?

Actress Ellen Page brings star power to 'Beyond'
3 hrs.
Ellen Page -- the Academy Award-nominated actress from films such as?"Inception" and "Juno" --? is making the leap from movies?to video games.
Sony and game developer Quantic Dream announced Monday night that?she will play?a woman with mysterious powers in the forthcoming game?"Beyond: Two Souls."
Quantic Dream is the development company behind the outstanding, cinematic PlayStation 3?game "Heavy Rain." And the game's director - David Cage - vowed Monday:?"'Beyond' will be unlike anything else you've experienced before."?

Quantic Dream is best known for "Heavy Rain" -- a cinematic, moving game that fused film-like story telling and video?gaming into one highly?compelling and emotional?package.
For their new game,?Cage said Page will?play Jodie Holmes as gamers take her through?15 years of her life. He also said the game will explore death and the afterlife and promised it would be?"emotional,?mature and unique."
Here, check out the trailer for "Beyond:"
