Reason for the Quiet
2008-08-23 00:00:00
I know I’ve been quiet.  Very very quiet. Why? I’ve been thinking.  Debating.  Arguing.  Arguing with God.  More debating.  More thinking. It’s no secret that I want to come home, that I think my calling is in the home, and that I’ve really had a hard time not being able to fulfill what I think I should be doing. Today?  I quit my job.  Actually, I put in notice - my last day will be late November.  My hopes are that we’ll be able to train someone to replace me in that time (the wheels of HR move very slowly.) I’m exhilarated and terrified and my head is pounding and I’m nervous, scared, anxious, what if…  what if… what if…  but know…  The deep down know…  that I’m doing what’s right for me and my family.  I’ve told my boss.  HR has been contacted. I will be doing freelance projects and stuff.  From home (HA!), which will hopefully gear up in earnest in January. Wow. But th...
Are Hybrid Vehicles TOO Quiet?
2008-08-15 22:10:00
While Hybrids can save you a substantial amount of money over the life of the vehicle, they do come with a few drawbacks. They are often small and have a limited range while running on full electric power, but does running almost completely silent present itself as a downside? According to many people it does and Lotus Engineering has designed a system to help reduce the worries associated with running silently.

Giants Stay Quiet at the Deadline
2008-08-01 00:56:00
As many expected, the Giants stayed very quiet during the final hours of the non-waiver trade deadline Thursday. In fact, most of baseball was pretty quiet outside of the Ken Griffey deal and Manny Ramirez getting shipped to LA. I am a little disappointed the Giants couldn't unload Randy Winn and get something halfway decent in return, but not at all surprised. Winn seemed like the one logical piece the Giants have that could have made sense for a team like the Mets. As far as trade targets, there was an article out of the San Jose Mercury yesterday that confirmed that the Giants and Rangers were discussing a potential Hank Blalock deal as the Giants had scouts in Texas watching him over the last week. However, Blalock was just placed on the DL after getting injured a few days ago, which killed any potential trade in the works. The name that was mentioned regarding who the Rangers were targeting from the Giants was Jonathon Sanchez. If that was the case, I'm glad no deal was made....
Are Hybrid Cars Too Quiet to Be Safe for Pedestrians?
2008-07-30 15:31:00

Quiet market
2008-07-28 16:49:00
Indeed, this blog has lead me to know many great people and talking here online, allows me to vent my frustration and get my act right. Penning down your thoughts is always a good way to be clear to yourself, what you want. I wanted to get back to my passionate self and i wrote about it. By writting, i had forced myself to think positive and the small steps to getting back the passion. Today i dragged myself to this laptop and type away! My very first small step! I remember back in those days, even after i went Mdm Wong (My generation will understand) back at 1am, i will still flip charts... while i may be enjoying my night out, my head was thinking abt trading ideas for the next day... haha those were the days....First of all, thanks to 4 kind souls who replied to my last post. Anonymous, just like you say, set a big target that will benefit not only me, but many others. Today i did something spectacular. (How timely) I rejected a customer. There was this uncle who had vi...
Very Quiet, Very Pretty 4yo AQHA show gelding
2008-06-08 01:28:00
 Toby is a well started 4yo AQHA gelding. He was started as a 3yo and just keeps getting better. He has never freaked out at a horse show in fact he is usually more quiet than the aged and experienced show horses we have. He is extremely dependable and will be the same horse every day you take him out. He is very smart and learns new things very quickly. He has been shown in leadline by a 4yo girl (it was her first time riding also). He has also been used in the Truman State University horse show in the walk/trot classes with very very beginning riders on him. He is really good at showmanship. He pivots, trots off, stands for inspection, sets up and backs up. He has been shown in halter, showmanship, horsemanship and western pleasure and has done well in all classes. Toby is coming along great with his leads and head set. He is also getting good at the horsemanship pivots and patterns. He has the potential to be an excellent all-around horse for a beginner or intermediate rider...

Singapore Developers turn landlords as property market stays quiet
2008-06-04 05:31:00
Singapore Developers turn landlords as property market stays quiet  With projects held back, firms lease out units bought in collective sales By Joyce Teo, Property Correspondent  STAYING ON: The consortium that bought Lincoln Lodge has allowed occupants to keep renting homes for six months from the sale completion date of July 8. — PHOTO: NEWMAN & GOH   PROPERTY developers such as Koh Brothers and GuocoLand, which bought collective sale sites during boom times, are now becoming landlords as they wait out the market slowdown. They are leasing out apartments they bought to existing occupants as a way to generate some income instead of simply leaving them vacant. If the property upswing had continued, these developers might well have moved quickly to tear down the older homes to put up new developments. But the sharp slowdown in home sales has put paid to such thoughts for now. Market observers say renting is a nimble move given present market conditions. For sellers of u...

2008-05-30 22:13:00
A while back a friend of mine was getting frustrated with a news site he was trying to get set up in MOSS and asked me for some help.  His issue seemed pretty straight-forward, he wanted to add an Announcements web part to the main page of the site but couldn't find the web part anywhere in the site's web part gallery to be added.  I'm a little embarrassed to say that the solution to our problem didn't immediately come to me, but at the same time when your brain is working in a certain direction it's all too easy to overlook the simple solutions. My first instinct was to check his site's Site Features and Site Collection Features in the Site Settings to see what was activated or deactivated.  His Enterprise features were enabled, as were his Standard features and Team Collaboration features.  So this wasn't a case of available functionality being disabled so that the web part couldn't be used.  Next I checked the file ser...

Quiet Hybrid Cars Could Pose Greater Risks For Pedestrians

 This is an own son of NSBA Hall of Fame Inductee ZIPPOS MR GOOD BAR and a grandson of IRON REBEL. He has been professionally trained Western Pleasure and was in consistant training his entire first year. Check out his pedigree as they don't get any better than this! This horse is more broke (as some like to put it) than your average 20 yr. old. He has a great jog and lope. He is naturally very brave and not spooky at all. He loves to trail ride to the point where it is hard to get him back to the barn! His personality is very sweet and affectionate. Anyone can ride this horse. He is an excellent show prospect and also a very quiet, well trained horse you can trail ride out alone or with company. He's a pleasure to be around and ride. He will also move out at a hunter pace and would make a great all-around horse. For more info, photos, to view his video or others for sale, please visit www.pamtanner.com
The Quiet
2008-05-23 15:38:00
The past 5 days or so I have been doing what we call "quiet time" in our home.Because Caleb just refuses to sleep past 6:30am (even with sleeping in a quiet room without his giggly brother)... we find that this quiet time is not only good for us (heh...) but its really great for him.Taite still naps some mornings. It just depends on what time he gets to bed the night before... and wakes up. This morning he needed a nap and is fast asleep... due to the late party night we had (us wild pastors and wives - im totally joking.. or am I?! I am)During Taites nap (or his quiet time in the bed w/ books); I put Caleb into the guestroom (where he has been sleeping during naps/bedtime) and tell him its quiet time. I explain to him each time that this means he can read books... draw... play with his stuff toy in bed... etc... But he is NOT to leave the room or get loud. Our guestroom also doubles as our school room.. so it has lots of books in it for him.. as well as things to draw with. It has ...

Quiet, safe easy going trail or ranch gelding!
2008-05-22 05:14:00
 This gelding is like a big pet. He is very easy going and does not care what you do to him! He has had guns shot off of his back, tarps over his head and he does not mind one bit. He is always the same to ride, no buck and so silly stuff. He loves to go down the trail but would also make a nice quiet, hard working ranch horse. He loves cattle! He knows all the basics in the arena like side pass, neck rein, flex, etc. You can trust that any rider would be safe on him.

Clinton Quiet About Own Radical Ties
2008-05-19 23:33:00
When Hillary Rodham Clinton questioned rival Barack Obama'sties to 1960s radicals, her comments baffled two retired Bay Arealawyers who knew Clinton in the summer of 1971 when she worked as anintern at a left-wing law firm in Oakland, Calif., that defendedcommunists and Black Panthers."She's a hypocrite," Doris B. Walker, 89, who was a member of theAmerican Communist Party, said in an interview last week. "She had toknow who we were and what kinds of cases we were handling. We had avery left-wing reputation, including civil rights, constitutional law,racist problems."Malcolm Burnstein, 74, a partner at the firm who worked closely withClinton during her internship, said he was traveling in Pennsylvania inApril when Clinton attacked Obama for his past interactions with William Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, members of Students for a Democratic Society who went on to found the bomb-making Weather Underground."Given her background, it was quite hypocritical," Burnstein said.

CDL’s gain up 31% in quiet Singapore market

CDL’s gain up 31% in quiet Singapore market Firm notches $165m in profits but sees weaker times ahead By Joyce Teo NOT READY: CDL is holding back launches of Shelford Suites (above), The Arte @ Thomson, Pasir Ris Phase 1 and The Quayside @ Sentosa. — PHOTO: CDL DESPITE the subdued residential property market, Singapore developer City Developments (CDL) still notched up a 31 per cent growth in first-quarter net profit to $164.97 million. It has held back launches here given the quiet market. Revenue in the three months ended March 31, however, fell 1.3 per cent to $758.75 million. CDL sees weaker times ahead. Property market sentiment may remain subdued in the next 12 months with problems linked to the United States sub- prime crisis still looming and given the expected credit tightening by some financial institutions, it said. But the current uncertainty is a ‘temporary environment’ and Singapore’s nimbleness in responding to economic changes wi...

Nintendo Quiet On List Of WiiWare Launch Games
2008-05-07 06:53:00
With less than a week until the downloadable game platform launches next Monday on Wii, Nintendo has yet to divulge what gamers can look forward to. Final Fantasy: My Life As a King (WiiWare) According to Game|Life, it's looking more and more like Nintendo will only announce a list of launch titles the day of release, on May 12. It would be an anti-climatic debut for sure, but one that's consistent with the low-profile, indie games to be featured on the download service, much like Xbox Live Arcade and the PlayStation Store.In March, Nintendo launched the WiiWare service in Japan. Though American launch titles will likely vary (here's hoping the lovable Lost Winds makes the cut), notable releases in Japan included Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life As a King ($15), Dr. Mario and Virus Extermination ($10), Star Soldier R ($8), and Ping-Pong ($5).The Verdict:I'm really looking forward to the release of WiiWare, particularly for My Life As a King, Lost Winds, World of Goo, D...
All Quiet On The Coach Q Front
