Hi Guys,
finally got around to seing the new tim burton movie dark shadows yesterday, loved bruno delbonnels lighting but what I found odd was the choice of aspect ratio, the cinema I watched it at showed the movie in a 1,85 ratio, which for a movie of this magnitude seems a bit strange to me. why not 2,4:1 ? the only reason I could think of was to favor the production design and actually show off more of the sets. Does anyone have more information about this ? im really curious.

In Springfield, New Education Secretary Touts Proposed Investments
Members of Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick's administration continue to tour the state promoting Patrick's proposed budget for the next fiscal year, which begins July 1st. New Secretary of Education Matthew Malone visited Springfield Thursday to speak to local educators about proposed investments in education.
Governor Patrick's budget would increase education spending by over $650 million next year. Secretary Matthew Malone says the spending would focus on early childhood education, local chapter 70 aid, increased classroom time in certain middle schools, and higher education grants. Malone says whether or not the legislature follows through on proposed spending, he thinks all component's of the governor's education plan are priorities.
"One is not more important than the other. They're all intricately linked. They're all about closing achievement gaps and providing opportunity. I say we need to do it all."
Malone argues the proposed spending would help increase graduation rates in western Massachusetts. Graduation rates in the Springfield and Holyoke public school districts rank among the bottom ten districts in the state. Each district graduated slightly over fifty percent of its students last year. Malone says investments in early childhood and elementary education, will help improve those numbers.
"So if we're strategic and thoughtful, which the governor is, in saying our goal is reading proficiency by the end of third grade, we do that right, that's going to increase graduation rates for the next ten years on."
Patrick's budget is now before the legislature. Both the house and senate will produce budget proposals of their own in the coming months.

Football Fan Tells BBB: Ex Sport Group Turned Super Bowl Dream Into $5,000 Nightmare
Wednesday, February 22nd, 2012Better Business Bureau of Southern Arizona is warning sports fans to be extremely cautious when doing business with Ex Sport Group, a Missouri ticket broker that apparently took $5,200 from a Rhode Island man but never delivered promised tickets to this year's Super Bowl.
"I was destroyed," said the retired businessman, a New England Patriots fan. He said he has tried to contact the company's owner, Wendell Southerland, without success. He said dozens of phone calls, emails and text messages were unanswered. "Words cannot describe the anger and frustration," he said.
The case is among several across the country in which football fans say they were duped by Craigslist ads for Super Bowl tickets. Two friends from Boston said they paid a broker $2,800 for two tickets after seeing an ad on the website. The tickets turned out to be counterfeit. An Indianapolis woman told police she was cheated out of $2,000 when four tickets advertised on Craigslist were never delivered.
Last fall, BBB warned consumers about World Series ticket scams involving Craigslist and other websites. And earlier this month, an Ohio couple was sentenced to prison for using Craigslist to steal more than $200,000 from hundreds of victims for nonexistent tickets to the Super Bowl, World Series, NBA Finals and numerous concerts.
In the Ex Sport Group case, the Rhode Island businessman said he sent payment for the tickets via FedEx and arranged to meet Southerland in an Indianapolis hotel lobby on the Friday before the Feb. 5 Super Bowl, but Southerland never appeared. The fan, who had flown to Indianapolis with his son, said he spent thousands more for replacement tickets to the game.
The man said he had seen Southerland's ad for Super Bowl ticket and hotel packages on Craigslist and was suspicious of the offer at first. But Southerland convinced him through emails and phone calls that the ticket packages were legitimate. Southerland pointed out that Ex Sport Group was registered with the Missouri secretary of state.
BBB tried several times to contact Southerland, with no success. Recently, BBB representatives visited Southerland's home on Jackson Street in Vinita Park, Mo. A resident of the house acknowledged that Southerland worked as a sports ticket seller, but said he was not at home. Southerland did not respond to a BBB request for information left at the home.
Kim States, BBB President, said that consumers who pay unfamiliar, third-party brokers for tickets may end up with nothing. "If you don't know them and haven't heard of them, you probably shouldn't trust them," she said.
The Patriots fan said the experience ruined what should have been a once-in-a-lifetime event. He said a text message he sent to Southerland summed up his frustration: "How can you do this to my son and me?"
The Missouri secretary of state shows that Ex Sport Group was registered in June 2008. Southerland is (more…)

Boy, 10, held over pensioner death
9:40am Monday 14th October 2013 in National News © Press Association 2013
A 10-year-old boy is in police custody after being arrested over the death of an elderly man found lying in the street with a head injury.
The 79-year-old man, named locally as Victor Hepworth, was discovered in Back Hill Top Avenue in the Harehills area of Leeds yesterday evening. West Yorkshire Police were called to the scene just before 6.20pm, having been alerted by the ambulance service.
Paramedics took the pensioner, thought to have lived on the street, to Leeds General Infirmary but he was pronounced dead a short time later.
Neighbours in Harehills, to the north-east of Leeds city centre, have spoken of their shock at Mr Hepworth's death.
Liaqat Ali, manager of the Abubakar supermarket on nearby Roundhay Road, said he was a regular customer and that he had seen him yesterday.
He said: "The old gentleman used to come to the shop all the time, God rest his soul. I've been here for 10 years and he'd been living in the area at least that long. I think he had a son.
"I saw the old man walking around yesterday afternoon, but I didn't speak to him. He was quite well-known in the area.
"Everyone's surprised that this has happened. I'm shocked they've arrested a little kid.
"The police were around here until quite late last night, but we didn't see or hear anything. I only found out what had happened this morning."
Abdul Hannan, whose mother lives in the street, told Sky News the pensioner was always willing to help others.
Mr Hannan said: "He would go out of his way to help the community. He would put the bins out, he would pick litter up from the street, he would tell kids to put litter in the bins. He volunteered in the local church - he did that on a regular basis."
A forensic tent has been put up at the scene in Back Hill Top Avenue, a street of terraced houses, and the area has been cordoned off by police.
The boy arrested in connection with the incident is yet to be formally spoken to by officers, it is understood. Post-mortem examination results are expected later today.
West Yorkshire Police are appealing for information about the man's death. Any witnesses are asked to contact officers from the homicide and major inquiry team on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
Krunal Sagathaya, who lives in Hill Top Avenue which is next to Back Hill Top Avenue, told the Yorkshire Evening Post: "He's a really good guy. He used to play with all the children. I feel really sad."
A 26-year-old woman who lives in the same street, who did not want to be named, told the newspaper: " He was such a nice man. I can't believe what has happened. He was like a granddad to a lot of the kids. I don't think anyone would want to hurt him on purpose. He was part of us."
Abul Hasan, who lives next door to Mr Hepworth, a former hospital porter, said he did not see what happened but tried to help his stricken neighbour.
Mr Hasan, 28, said: "The first thing I said was 'Call an ambulance'.
"The bad thing was he was lying down for 15 minutes, the paramedics took so long to come.
"He was on his side in a sleeping position.
"He just went blue, he had gone.
"I checked his pulse, his heart, nothing.
"He just got pushed over - that's the rumour. I didn't see it."
Asked if the dead man had family, Mr Hasan, a father-of-two, said: "All the community is his family. His own relatives, I don't know.
"Everybody knew him, he was so fit, always riding his bike or walking to the park."
Mr Hasan added: "I've known him since I first came living here, aged five.
"He's the most friendly person in the world.
"He played with my children all the time.
"I feel sorry for him, it's tragic. I think he just dropped and hit his head."
Another neighbour, who did not want to be named, said Mr Hepworth lived at his address as a lodger and was well-known and well-liked in the area.
"He was really good with children, he was a really nice man.
"He used to help mend all the children's bikes."
Locals said the boy held by police was from a local Bangladeshi family.

MIAMI, Sept. 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Continuing its role as a positive force in the community, Discovery Familia celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month with a special initiative committed to inspiring a new generation of healthy families. Hosted by Mexican chef Marcela Valladolid, new capsules SALUD CON SAZON offer alternatives for a healthy lifestyle.

Specially designed to be a celebration of Hispanic culture, SALUD CON SAZON is a series of spots featuring Valladolid, who presents practical tips for making nutritious eating choices. Marcela first collaborated with the network on RELATOS CON SABOR, a series in which families shared their traditional recipes. In the new capsules, the popular chef gives hands-on advice for preparing traditional food, but using easy recipes and tips to adopt healthier lifestyles. For example, SALUD CON SAZON offers tips for packing wholesome school lunches, stresses the importance of cooking with more natural ingredients, and demonstrates how to use alternative ingredients to cook traditional meals. The SALUD CON SAZON capsules will air during the network's nighttime programming and will also be available at facebook.com/discoveryfamilia, along with downloadable recipes, information and other useful tips.
"I am proud and happy to return to the Discovery Familia screen and to be part of this celebration with an initiative created especially for Hispanic audiences," Valladolid commented.

Forget the fear of mass casualties and visions of mobs at county health department offices, swine flu may have hit its peak.
Cases of H1N1, commonly known as swine flu, have gone from cause for alarm to cause for concern. And though health officials are still urging residents to be vigilant about the symptoms and spread of the H1N1 virus, they say, for now, the number may be on the decline.
Currently, the health department is offering the H1N1 vaccine at its health clinics. For more information, call the Santa Rosa County Health Department at 983-5200 or log onto www.myflusafety.com .

View rare copy of Declaration of Independence at AHS on Feb. 21 & 22
Thursday, February 18th, 2010At 11 a.m. Sunday Feb. 21 be one of the first in Tucson to see a 1776 broadside copy of the Declaration of Independence at the Arizona Historical Society (AHS), 949 E. 2nd St. (west of Park Ave.). The Museum will open be till 8 p.m. that evening, and again from 8 to 4 p.m. on Monday Feb. 22, to see this historical document. Admission will be free for both days. AHS phone number is 520-628-5774.
Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords will be joined at the opening ceremony by Tucson Mayor Bob Walkup and Pima County Supervisor Richard Elias. Also participating in the opening ceremony will be 30 VFW Riders, Arizona Rangers, Explorers, and the Tucson High School Mariachis. A video message from former Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor will be shown throughout the visiting 2 day exhibit. See event flyer here.
This 1776 broadside is only one of 25 known left of the Declaration, and here's the information from the event flyer below on what a broadside is (and the amazing story of how this one was found in a Philadelphia flea market):
"THE DECLARATION of INDEPENDENCE 1776 BROADSIDES–
A broadside is about the size of a full sheet of newspaper, printed on one or
both sides and folded.
On July 4, 1776, the Continental Congress, led by John Hancock, renders official
Thomas Jefferson's text of the Declaration of Independence. The manuscript is
rushed to the shop of printer John Dunlap in Philadelphia. Dunlap typesets the
document and creates about 200 broadsides of the text.
The Dunlap broadsides are delivered to the nation's founders early in the morning
on July 5, 1776. One copy is officially entered into the Congressional Journal, and
additional copies of the freshly drafted Declaration of Independence are carried by
riders on horseback throughout the colonies and read aloud to assembled colonists.
John Hancock, president of the Continental Congress, dispatches Dunlap broadside
copies of the Declaration to America's political and military leaders.
(The "original copy" of the Declaration of Independence – the one that was signed by members of Congress – is at the National Archives in Washington. However, this famous copy wasn't produced until later in the summer of 1776, and wasn't signed until August and later in 1776,when Congress returned to Philadelphia after a summer break.)
Today there are only 25 of these July 4 – July 5, 1776 first printing Dunlap
broadsides that are known to exist."
The broadside copy that will be on display in Tucson was purchased at auction for $8.14 million by TV producer and philanthropist Norman Lear in 2001 at an auction. This copy was discovered in 1989 by a man (in Philadelphia) after he purchased a painting for $4 at a flea market because he was interested in the frame. Concealed in the backing of the frame was this original Dunlap broadside of the Declaration of Independence.
That's why flea markets are so popular in America!

Okay, I really hope you guys can give me some insight here.
Why do most Chinese customers (in stores, restaurants, etc.) refuse to acknowledge greetings and statements from servers, shopkeepers, etc. SO many times, in many cities across China I see Chinese people enter a store or restaurant to be greeted with a "huaning guaning ______ fan dian" or whatever they say when you enter into an extablishment, and the customer just walks silently by??? what the F??! How difficult is it to say nihao, or something like that? Also, often when a server brings food to the table they will say something like "here you are", and the customer almost never says thank you or even acknowledges their presence. It's the same story when leaving an establishment, the employees give a parting "zouhao" and the customers just walk out silently, no bye bye, nothing. In America, we always acknowlege the employees, say hello, thank our servers (for everything, filling up water, bringing food...), and say goodbye when we leave a store even if we didn't buy anything. To me, the Chinese way seems incredibly rude, and actually very sad. I don't understand this though I have some theories....I wonder if it is a way for higher class Chinese (i.e., the customer) to announce that they are better than the employee (i.e., lower class) by refusing to converse with them. If that is the case, then that is even more sad. Hope you guys can give me some useful feedback here, it just seems like such a shitty way to treat another person.

That is one of the first major cultural differences I noticed when I came here, and I still do not totally understand it. I have asked my friends about it, and they seem perplexed that I even notice it. The attitude, both in the small and big cities, seems to be "that is their job, why should I be nice to them"? I think it is the result of several small factors added together. The population size here, even in the "small" cities, leads to an anonymous social existence. The people here are just one in a million, and that includes the employees, and without a personal identity to each other, maybe it is common to just ignore and be ignored. The fact that the employees give greetings and say goodbye is probably due to the fact that they are trained and paid to do so. If the shoe was on the other foot, or when they are the ones shopping, they probably ignore the other workers just the same. It might also have to do with the focus on family and a small circle of friends here, meaning that many Chinese do not concern themselves with a stranger, and they do not feel it is necessary to give the illusion of caring. I do not think it has to do with class, at least in modern China, because in many instances I have been with a person of low class at a "high-class" business, and this still happens even though the customer knows that they are not better than the employee, who sometimes happens to be the boss. I also would like to understand this issue better, but I think maybe we are making it into something bigger and more complex than it is. I think it is just "the way it is" for no really significant reason. It might just be a cultural difference that cannot be, and does not need to be, understood. When I am in this situation, I say "hello, please, thanks, bye" and make small talk because that is what I am used to, but I do not bother my companion to do the same. It is like the issue of many Chinese never saying "I love you" directly to their mother and father. It might seem so natural to us, but to them it is so strange, and to try to change that because we think it should be different is not very effective or tolerant. Good point and good question! Asked my gf and she said "becuase...." that was about it. I think it's to do with face and standing. Servers are the lowest so you don't bother with them unless you want something or you want to complain about something. Chinese always find it strange when I talk tot he servers, which I do a lot because they are always so happy to talk to someone. Re: Chinese never acknowledge employees

What you've both said makes sense. And I guess I'm not really out to change the behaviour, but it just seems terribly rude. I think if someone treated me like that if I was in a service position back in the states I would consider them a total prick, treat them like dirt, and be as wholly uncooperative as I could be if they had a problem/complaint...however, that's obviously a huge difference here, here if you do that probably you lose your job to the million other people waiting to fill your shoes. Also, maybe there's a difference in the way the employee interprets the behaviour, maybe they don't take as much offense to it as I would. Still, some common courtesy for your fellow human beings seems like something that should cross all cultural boundaries, but seems to be seriously lacking in this case.

Haha - you know, on numerous occasions, I have chosen to separate myself from my shopping/eating companion because they treat the employees in such a way that I am afraid of retribution (spitting in the food, overcharging, purposefully slow service, etc...) or I just feel sorry for the worker and want to send the message that I am not "with" my friend in how they treat employees. As far as "common courtesy", have you noticed that in some countries, despite putting on a front of peace and harmony, common courtesy as some cultures view it is "seriously lacking" to the point I'd say "nonexistent"? A public show of politeness and formality to "important" people is one thing, but you can get a more accurate view of a society's level of courtesy and respect for others by observing how they treat each other and those of a "lower" position when no one else is paying attention or in common situations.

As a Chinese born American I am definitely not the guy to speak on this, but I think maybe xietingfeng had a point when the comparison was made to saying "I love you." Maybe, there is difficulty expressing feelings.

Just had another thought!!!! You know in the west, particularly in America, it is very common, perhaps almost standard for some service positions, that the salary is highly dependent on tips and commission from sales. More importantly, it has been this way for several years, at least one or two generations. In combination with this, people in these positions are not usually looked down upon (except for car salespersons, haha) because many are young and working through high school or college, or it is just a second job, or in some cases, their annual salary is higher than that of teachers, policemen, and other "respected" positions. So, often people in service jobs are often thought of as either hard-working or ambitious, or just "trying to make ends meet." Anyway - combine these and you get a totally different "service worker-customer culture" from that in other countries. Service workers for years have learned that the better you treat your customers, the more successful you will be, and after decades of good customer service (something either still lacking or just beginning in most parts of China) the customers have learned to be polite and friendly towards service workers at the same time. Customers in the USA for example either have family or good friends that work in these areas, or have done so themselves. If this is not the case, either through our mother and father's discipline when we were young and acted rudely towards such people or seeing enough news stories of disgruntled workers doing terrible things to customers, even if we do not respect or admire such workers, we have learned that the best option is to treat them with kindness and respect anyway. I would also like to state that although I agree with the poster that this seems very prevalent in China, I have seen people of all races in different countries act in this way. So, although there is some truth to this in my opinion, this is still just a generalization which may or may not be true to each individual. In Chinese societies, we always feel service providers are PAID to do their job, say the greetings, smile etc. By nature, some of these workers may not even be friendly people, for eg they may not even greet their parents at home. But at work, they are PAID to act like robots. So when a robot greets you, would u respond?
I have been out with businessmen and they act incredibly cold towards service providers. It's like acknowledging their existence will somehow bring them a few levels down to a lower class. So most of these businessmen treat them like they are invisible (unless it happens to be a sweet young thing). Service providers are also not used to guests talking to them. Once I asked a waitress where she's from, how she's coping with work etc - she was actually taken aback, took a few glances behind to check where her supervisor was and promptly ran away. I know it looks incredibly sad in the eyes of foreigners. Personally, I do look at service providers in the eye, smile back or acknowledge with a simple nod of the head. But I'm a minority. It all boils down to upbringing and manners taught from young. Re: Chinese never acknowledge employees
Posted by: Xietingfeng (IP Logged)
Date: June 28, 2010 08:32AM
I had to laugh when I read your reply Astroboy because I have often had the same experience when trying to make simple or cordial conversation with service workers. The first few times I thought I did something wrong or that they didn't speak English OR Chinese. I was a bit bewildered by their actions such as running away, looking down, blank stares, laughter, and most commonly no answer at all. I think your point about it coming down to a matter of upbringing and manners is very valid and might be the best explanation. I am glad you are one of the exceptions! Maybe all of the "exceptions" along with a changing perception towards service workers might slowly bring about a change. I DO feel it is a little sad, and in fact it makes me feel a mix of anger and disgust when someone, Chinese or foreigner, who normally acts rudely toward most workers goes out of their way to be polite to a sweet young thing, as you put it. How pathetic and transparent is that? Re: Chinese never acknowledge employees

Thanks for all your responses guys and gals! Not sure if we really managed to figure out an answer, but glad to know that it is not just foreigners who find this phenomenon as strange, and you gave me a lot to consider. What a helpful forum! Glad that u learned something from here. U have to understand that 90% of the Chinese u meet on the streets come from a "peasant" background - including the rich businessmen and factory owners (the nouveau riche).
In a dog-eat-dog world where survival of the fittest and bread-and-butter issues are top priorities, good manners count for nuts in China. Once u accept that fact, you will do fine. On a side note: Where are all the educated Chinese, the social elites, the scholars, the middle-class etc? They are mostly in Taiwan, HK or have emigrated overseas. U may find some still in BJ, Shanghai, Guangzhou etc. But u will rarely encounter them on the streets in China. You know why? because Chinese society traditionally do not treat human being with respect.... people do not feel that they born to be equal, no constitution rights to protect basic human rights. That's why you see Coal mine death toll is more than IED or road side bombers.
Chinese never care about others human, they just care about themselves. And I remember back in my childhood in China, junior highschool. We had this geographic textbook talked about U.S society, everyone thinks it's wrong to treat black badly, but nobody wanna blacks in their neighbourhood. It's exactly same things, down earth discrimination, based on location, income level, physical appearance. Canuck Wrote:

I like it when I walk into a restaurant and hear a chinese person order and say to the waiter something like 快点儿 (quickly) afterwards. " I want a hamburger and be quick about it!" if you did that in a western country restaurant the waiter would for sure spit in your food.. HAHA.
I hardly ever hear a chinese person say thank you to another chinese person. but I've walked into stores and heard the clerk say ' 你要买什么?' in a rude tone. its like saying What do you want to buy? they could easily say 你想要买什么?which is more polite ' what would you like to buy?' I do like the no tipping waiter idea in china. I wish more western countries were like that. You like rudeness and not tipping? Classy. dude, I had waitress asked me for tip during Chinese new year in a bar...i felt it's rude......i guess she figured out i did not have RMB and paid in creditcard... but then they do not have a place i can write tip on.

Classy. don't get me wrong... back in the western world I do tip at restaurants for good service ( you know the old saying when in rome.). However, I can't see why we should tip. I think its a Guilt western cultural thing (the starving waiter/waitress). If u look up the words waiter or waitress in the dictionary it says: a Man/Woman whose job is to serve customers at their tables in a restaurant. its their job to serve. they already get paid by the restaurant to serve. why a tip? and don't say low wages cuz restaurants have to pay at least min wage... and min wage is more that $2 and hour. People who get into the food service industry (server) tend to do it for tips and expect them. if you look at it that way its kind of sad. because if you have a rude waiter/waitress/server and the tip is automatically added in the restaurant bill you are going to feel ripped off. And who wants to get ripped off. that sucks plus you are already paying a big bill for the meal AND don't forget taxes (if applicable) then you got to fork out 13% for a tip. Give me a break. If you walk into a clothing store and a store clerk ( non commission just hourly wage) helps you select the clothes u want to buy do u tip them? or lets say you are in a grocery store and you need to find some food item and one of the staff spends the next 10 minutes helping you.. do u tip them? I've even heard the government expects waiters/ waitresses to claim their tips on tax returns. what does that tell u? Re: Chinese never acknowledge employees

I walked into a bar in china once and they were going to charge me 50 kuai for a bottle of beer (small one). after a 10 minute "conversation" I got them down to 5 kuai a beer plus they gave me some free beer. I love saying the word 为什么? why? when you think the price is high ask them why it is so high. then say you saw the same item in another place for much cheaper. or in this case why is the beer so expensive here but at another bar it is much less. then you can add the "are you trying to cheat me?"

Good point! Tipping IS a strange custom when you think about it, especially when it has come to the point that it has in the USA. I especially agree with what you wrote about getting "service" at other types of businesses. They are glad to help you out because it is their job, and in some cases are much more helpful and friendly than most waitstaff, but they do it knowing no tip will be headed their way. The problem is that it HAS come to that point though, and many service people only accept the job because of the tips. It benefits the companies to solicit and distribute tips instead of paying higher wages because they want their waitstaff to be as friendly as possible to give them a competitive edge. I have to say that I hate tipping!!! Haha - what a cheapskate right? If I take my gf and her friends out to dinner in the US, paying $100 for dinner and drinks is bad enough - but then having to pay an extra 15-20% on top of it? No thanks! I prefer the "no tipping" system that much of the world practices and would be happy to see the USA make the change, but it won't without major legislation or unless a few of the major restaurant chains change their pay system, (no tips but pay the waitstaff a higher wage) and advertise "no tips" as a way for customers to save money, and then their quarterly profits rise resulting in more and more restaurants imitating them. That would be nice. Hanyustudent Wrote:

I love the Reservoir Dogs photo ... HAHA I was even thinking of the movie when I wrote about the tipping thing last night. That argument scene in the restaurant over the tip. That's classic. yeah, I'm guessing tipping went down for a while after that movie came out. Re: Chinese never acknowledge employees

I m a foreigner, i live in China.
Very good this country. Your people welcome foreigners. The life is good here. Nice shops windows lightning at night. So many food. Modern city landscape, so many good looking high scraper. Just i thought you were a socialist country or communist country. I vote the right side party in my country. But OK socialists can be good for several points. I thought socialist people don't look down the low income people. I thought socialists people speak and make friends with the low income people. They should be humanist, nice with low income people. In my country right side party people, capitalists, we talk with the service in a restaurant. We joke with them. Often also we seduce the women who work as service in a restaurant.

text: I am always discussing drainage away from the slab or basement of a home to prevent leakage. Drain tile or pipes usually surround the home and move water away from the foundation. Over time they may get clogged or tree roots begin to grow into the separated seams of the pipe. In severe cases the pipe becomes separated and no longer is joined together because of soil settling. You may try using a cutting tool at the end of a drain auger to cut through the mud but it may stay open only for a short period of time. You would then need to replace that broken portion of pipe. To determine the location rent a camera that can be run through the drain tile. This will save you a lot of digging and expense.

Shirley Myers
Before: 189 pounds
After: 136 pounds
Height: 5'2"
Age: 62
Alicia Myers
Before: 210 pounds
After: 129 pounds
Height: 5'4"
Age: 35
Discover the way to slim down in just 15-mintues a day!
After her insurance company denied her gastric bypass surgery request, Alicia Myers, then 210 pounds, turned to her mother, Shirley, for advice. "I called my mom bawling," says Alicia. "I asked her what I should do, and she told me to go to Jenny Craig."
Shirley had already battled her own weight demons. Following the birth of her third child, Shirley indulged her sweet tooth. "I always headed straight to the bakery and spent a lot of time eating doughnuts, cookies, and chocolates," she says. (Video: Secretly sugary foods) A stress-eater by nature, Shirley developed acid reflux and was so lethargic that she could sleep for half a day—all due to her size. "I was in denial about my weight until I started having to shop at Lane Bryant," she says. Eventually she was wearing size 20 clothes on a 5'2" frame.
The Turning Point
Shirley had had her own breaking point staring at the mirror in a tanning salon, so she knew what her daughter was going through when Alicia tearfully called years later. Alicia had been thin and athletic in high school, but like her mother loved carbs and fatty foods such as mayonnaise, Ranch dressing, and cheese. "I ate when I was bored. I ate when I was happy. I ate all of the time," says Alicia. (Search: How to stop mindless eating) After talking to her mom on the phone, Alicia followed her footsteps and called Jenny the very next day.
The Lifestyle
Both Shirley and Alicia picked up Jenny's proportioned meals, which prevented them from overdoing it. "I could actually see what a healthy portion looked like," says Shirley. "The palm of your hand is a serving of meat. Your potato should be the size of a ball." To trick their eyes into thinking that they were eating more, the duo switched to serving their meals on smaller plates. Best of all, they didn't have to give up their favorite foods completely. Alicia still eats macaroni salad, but she's completely revamped her recipe and now uses low-fat mayonnaise to cut the calories. On the Jenny plan, Shirley can eat a small piece of chocolate cake or a cinnamon roll.
As for exercise, Shirley walks every day, and has bought an elliptical and a bike. Likewise, Alicia picked up cardio and is outside whenever she can. "Last summer I was walking and running three to five times a week," she says. "Any chance that I have, I'm biking or walking." (Learn how you can walk off weight!)
The Motivation
With the help of her Jenny consultant, Shirley dropped 53 pounds and kept it off for 10 years. Just as her consultant keeps her accountable, Shirley now also calls Alicia from the grocery when she's tempted by sweets. They talk each other out of buying doughnuts and encourage each other to make smarter choices. "Alicia became an inspiration to me," says Shirley.
The feeling is mutual. "Every time I weighed in [at Jenny], I called my mom," says Alicia. "We really motivate each other. We call and give food tips to each other and talk every week." (Need more motivation? These fit-spirational posters will keep you going.)
The Reward
Shirley couldn't believe it when she shimmied into her daughter's size 4 skinny jeans. Equally impressive: a clean bill of health from her doctor. Her cholesterol levels are normal and her blood pressure is at a healthy 112/60. "Hearing that I was in the best shape of my life from a professional was a big accomplishment," says Shirley.
For Alicia, slimming down became a family affair in more than one way. Not only did she drop 81 pounds with her mom, but her fiancé lost 60 pounds as well. She can't wait to walk down the aisle feeling healthy and happy. "I'm looking forward to getting married and wearing a size 4 wedding dress," says Alicia. "I never thought that I would be that person." (If you've got that big day ahead, try this wedding slim-down plan.)
Their Tips
Get a support system. "It's important having someone I know that I can call, like my consultant or Alicia. I can't do it on my own, and need someone who can give me a push." –Shirley Myers
Be in it to win it. "You have to be in the right mindspace. Health is a life long commitment, but it's one of the best commits you can make to your self." –Alicia Myers

Armorer makes Batman 'Batarangs' sharp as an ax
For most of us, Batman's cool toys are pretty much out of reach. We'll never drive a Batmobile. We won't slip on a Batsuit or fire a Bat grappling gun. The iconic "Batarang," Batman's bat-shaped cross between a throwing star and a boomerang, however, may be a little bit more in reach.
Prop maker and swordsmith Tony Swatton has created weapons for more than 200 films. He tackles a new item each week in his online show, "Man at Arms." Most recently, he went to town on building and demonstrating a Batarang. Swatton certainly has the cred for this project. He's worked on three Batman movies, including creating Bane's belt buckles for "The Dark Knight Rises."… Read more

I am so glad i bought this! I purchase three different sinks (all were beautiful) and chose this one, it looks even better than the picture! In the picture it looked more dull colored but Its more shiny/glassy, which was a definite plus. The colors are great on the inside and outside of the sink, i would definitely recommend this to anyone, it's great!
What you cant see in the pictures is that it actually has gold metalic flecs in it. It is not overly gaudy though. It really has a WOW factor to it. Everyone that comes into the house and uses the bathroom that it is in comments on it. I shopped and shopped for a really good deal on a sink like this and thought that I was taking a gamble because this sink is a fraction of what you will find similar sinks anywhere else, the gamble paid off. We have pretty hard water where we live and what is unblelieveable about this sink is that when it dries there are no water spots so it doesen't need a lot of cleaning. We have a 500k+ house and it fits in as if the sink costs 500$ +. Infact on of the subs that was working on the property commented and asked if we got it at one of the higher end shops in town! OVERSTOCK IS WHERE ITS AT!!
Awesome buy. Arrived quickly. Packed perfect. Look like something I couldn't afford.
This is the most gorgeous sink I've ever seen! It is truly a work of art, & I am pleased to be able to install it in my new home. It is going on top of a vintage mahogany buffet for which I am having a custom granite top made & turning into a vanity. I'm pairing this sink w/the oiled bronze bamboo faucet. Can't wait to see the final effect!
This is a beautiful vessel sink. When I first opened the box, I felt it may be a little too glitsy for our bathroom but decided I couldn't live without it.
We bought 2 of these vessel sinks to install in our remodeled master bath. They are absolutely Beautiful. The sinks always look clean. I would definitely buy these again. Great Value.
This bowl was hypnotic. It was so very beautiful. The picture doesn't do it justice.
I was building a new house and wanted to include vessel sinks in two of my bathrooms. The plumbing supply company where I ordered the rest of my fixtures priced vessels starting at over $$$ and up. I knew I couldn't pay that much for them, so I came to Overstock. I was pleasantly surprised at the selection of vessel sinks they had to offer. I was excited to find this one because the color would work so well with the granite counter top I had chosen, and it was much cheaper. When I received the delivery, the sink was everything it was portrayed to be on the website. It is a beautiful addition to my bathroom, and I get rave reviews for it all the time.
This vessel sink is way more beautiful than the pic and the price is half of store costs
These sinks are not installed yet- but they go well with the other fixtures, and tile in my renovated bathroom. My fixtures are oil rubbed bronze with a hint of copper in them- they complement the sinks nicely.

text: Please Note: We have not and will not knowingly sell a puppy to any unregistered breeder, or any registered breeder who is breeding unregistered or cross bred puppies. Unfortunately, we are not responsible for the naivity or lack of scruples of others and have subsequently taken all steps to ensure that our pet puppies are desexed, and our main registration dogs are utilised correctly to improve the breed. Please feel free to check with us regarding any pedigree including our prefix, whether bred by us or not. |
