Class of 1986 Robyn (Osborn) Herz Lettered Four Years Cross Country Lettered Three Years Basketball Lettered Four Years Track Favorite Athletic Memory: I have a lot of fond memories of my athletic career at Center. The friendships I made and the shared experiences shaped my life. I have two favorite memories of my 4 years at Center. The first one happened when I was a sophomore and I helped my team break the school record and win the 4x400 meter relay. I got the baton 100+ meters behind Southeast's girl and took off to catch her. I passed her along the back stretch and when I passed her she said "Dang". I kept hearing her say "Dang. Dang." as I increased the distance between us. We won the meet. My second favorite memory was winning the 400 meter at the State Meet and breaking the State record my senior year. I had won the race my junior year and missed breaking the record by .18 seconds - so my goal my senior year was to win again and break the record. After my race the timer came up to me to show my time and I was so happy and relieved because I had accomplished my goal and broke the record with a 55.77. Currently I'm working part-time as a Client Associate at Merrill Lynch which allows me to support and encourage my three children in their athletic and extracurricular activities.

I remember having to hold the blocking dummy as Ron Umphenour and Roland Fuchs, All-State Running Backs, would practice a brutal Wishbone isolation play(was it 34/43 iso?) up the middle. Ouch!

Very light in color & low moisture.
$2.10 a pound FOB our dock in Eastern Nebr. with LKQ drum exchange.
Many drums are near new.
Ok so those who have not called to ask.
Like Kind Quality drum for exchange, & we can work with the drum issues.
I had heard that the honey crop was short but never knew there were so many small packers still in the business!
As I said before " Wow "
Starting my 35th year in the bees & we had no idea there are so many little mom & pop honey packers in the business. Guess we live a sheltered life here in Nebraska!
One load gone and starting on the next.
Thank you to all that have purchased from us!!
You still have some available?
About how much does each drum cost?
Most of the drums net at 625#
We now only now fill but to 2 inches from the top for dumping purposes.
$2.10 a pound would make the $1300.+ mark plus the drum.
Wish you were closer
As wonderful as this life is, there are days I really look forward to the next. :)
It is amazing to as to all the calls from all across the great USA!!
People picking up 1drum to what ever they can safely haul.
The bottom line is there is no real quality honey to be purchased in this country due to the short crop year!

Ohio City Multimodal Transportation Plan
Dear Ohio City Stakeholder,
- Implementing Complete Streets - building off of the Complete Streets investment being made by the Ohio Department of Transportation on the Lorain-Carnegie Bridge and Abbey Road through implementation of increased bike lanes, bike parking, and traffic calming for pedestrians as recommended by the Ohio City Market District Multimodal and Launch Lorain planning studies.
- Transit Oriented Development (TOD) - developing mixed-use housing adjacent to the RTA Red Line West 25th Street Rapid Station which serves over 360,000 arrivals and departures annually on weekdays.
While cycling, pedestrianism, and public transportation are viable and increasingly popular options for reaching Ohio City, the current reality is that the majority of the neighborhood's 3-million plus annual visitors arrive by car. In order to address the increased parking demand in the neighborhood, Ohio City Inc has developed several options for better utilizing existing parking options in the neighborhood. The proposed Transportation Plan will also create newly available parking without demolishing any existing structures and actually decrease the amount dedicated to surface parking in the neighborhood.
- A comprehensive neighborhood wayfinding system
- Valet and employee parking for those who work in the neighborhood, which will secure more than 400 parking spaces during key business hours and will free up more public spaces for visitors in the Market District.
- Consolidation of the Hick's and West Side Market Customer lots, which will add 150 parking spaces without demolishing any structures and will improve lighting and security. Parking will be free for the first 90 minutes and will cost only $2.00/hour after. This will be considered Phase I.
- A Market District Structured Parking Facility garage that will provide 500 additional public parking spaces without increasing the number of surface lots in the neighborhood. Considered Phase II, the facility will serve both the private and non-profit institutions in Ohio City as well as overflow parking for West Side Market and Market District customers.
- A sustainable, 21st-century transportation plan that will accommodate future growth in Ohio City that takes into account all modes of transportation including walking, biking, public transit, and driving
- Safer and more secure parking options, as paid parking lots will be professionally managed and monitored
- Easier access to on-street parking for residents in congested areas
- More than 350 additional parking spots at peak hours for those visiting the Ohio City neighborhood
Executive Director
Join Councilman Cimperman at a public meeting on July 31, 2012 at 6pm at Franklin Circle Church (1688 Fulton Road). Ohio City Inc will be present to discuss the transportation plan.

Online Reservations
I had been wanting to try Takashi and some friends recommended it for a birthday we were celebrating. We had the omakase menu. Tasting menu is an apt term in the sense that it introduced us to new flavors and presentations, starting with an egg custard amuse with truffle and asparagus (make sure to smash and then mix the wasabi), but it also is a misnomer because the portions were more than tasting and we were quite satiated by the end of the meal. We enjoyed every single course, but disagreed about which was the best with beef, duck and dessert being our choices. Wines were excellent, the list was manageable and prices were not outrageous. The rooms are small so you are close to other diners, but for us, that enhanced the experience.
You must order the scallops with house-made gnocchi...INCREDIBLE! Server was very attentive and friendly, we had a wonderful dining experience at Takashi!
One of the most memorable meals that I've enjoyed with my daughters, both of whom are international foodies. Words will fail to describe the attention to detail provided in terms of textures, layers of taste, and stunning composition of visually and emotionally appealing presentations. This is accessible, comfortable, and soul stirring food at its best. The chef's tasting menu was without question the best way to enjoy the multifaceted talents of the chef and his kitchen.
We were fortunate enough to be familiar with the famed Chef Takashi's style from eating at his famed suburban Detroit restaurant Tribute. He follows a similar style here however in a somewhat less pretentious atmosphere. There wasn't a plate that wasn't beautiful. I literally could have ordered 1 PB everything. Waitstaff was superb. Will look forward to eating there upon my return.
My husband and I really enjoyed our meal at Takashi. We each had an appetizer, seafood chowder and soba gnocchi. Each were just lovely. I had the duck which I highly recommend. The server suggested a great Syrah and monastrelll blend to go with it. The combination was absolutely superb. My husband had the barramundi, which was also excellent. Our desserts were sesame pana cotta and the tropical fruit financier. The financier plate was amazing! This was a great meal! I am so happy we went.
This is my favorite restaurant in Chicago and if you all go then you'll discover it's greatness and then I'll never be able to get a table! On the other hand, it would be selfish I suppose not to share this true Chicago gem. So - GO... enjoy... tell your friends... and encourage Takashi-san to expand so that more of us can go more often. The food is what you would expect from a chef who has 1 Michelin Star and fought Michael Symon to a 1-point decision on Iron Chef...simply put, outstanding and creative.
We were in and out in under 2 hours - interesting food combos, good flavor balances.
There can be no better chef in Chicago than Takashi. From 1st sip to last bite an extraordinary dining experience.
Great neighborhood spot to take a few friends or that special someone for a quieter evening for great food. It's a bit pricy but you will be satisfied and full.
My guest was so comfortable to dine at Takashi. I would like to bring my family to Takashi as well.
We celebrated or three year anniversary here, and we had a blast. Definitely recommend the chefs tasting menu. Absolutely stunning presentation, and even better quality. We will be going back next time we are in Chicago.
Everything was fantastic...close to a 5. Food was fresh, especially the specials. Service was attentive. The pork dish we had was excellent. I would certainly eat there again in a second, but won't rate this as a cant miss place
I went there with my folks - we all enjoyed the food very much. Dishes were made with creative fusion flairs, although some had slight disappointments e.g. beef of my dad's main dish was a little tough and they could have used a more tender cut. Nothing to be too concerned about and we still really enjoyed our dinner. But when we compared it to Blackbird which was around the same price, we all agreed that we preferred Blackbird.
The food was excellent: imaginative and and beautifully executed but the service was friendly but amateur despite the waiters being charming. All that and the less than remarkable decor made one wonder why Michelin awarded a star.
One of my favorite restaurants. Clean, great tasting food. Great decor and excellent staff. Amazing
The food has gotten slightly tired in the year since my last visit. Certain aspects are still delectable and well presented (pork belly, confit appetizer) but the mains were closer to phoning it in. Service is friendly but expert. Ambiance is and always will be amazing: cozy and comfortable. But the food needs some perfection to keep this restaurant in Chicago's top tier.
This was one of my most memorable meals ! Everything was just perfect. Fixed beautifully and tasted wonderful.
We have been to Takashi before and found it absolutely delicious. The food pairings are unusual and mouth-watering. I can't wait to go back.
finally, first-rate japanese-based fine dining in chicago. as great as chicago's dining scene is, it has not for many many years stacked up well to new york, SF, and LA for japanese-based, like masa, morimoto, benu, ame, nobu. takashi's is not quite up to this standard (yet), but there were some exceptional dishes. the flavor are sometime off the chart and chef takashi is incredibly creative and talented. the service is solid, but could use a bit more of the finicky, performative attention to detail that you find at tru and used to find at trotter's. great meal overall.
A "must" experience for foodies. Chef Takashi is a master and perfectly combines delicate tastes and textures with the spicy, bold, and unexpected.
Simply one of the best dining experience we've had. Takashi himself was excellent yet humble. You barely come across such individual. We had chef tasting menu, and it was one of the best tasting menu we've had. (There were some misses, but the hits were just perfect!) Give yourself and love one some treat by going to Takashi!
I went out on a first date here on a Saturday night and it was perfect. The price tag is on the high end but it was definitely worth it. The tasting menu with the wine pairing was the perfect experience for a first date. Afterwards, we even got to meet chef Takashi Yagihashi.
Takashi is very expensive but worth considering when you are looking for that very special place to celebrate. The food is exceptional and you will not have tasted many of these dishes ever before in your life. Even the desserts (yes, plural--at least on the 11 course tasting menu) were delicious and I am usually not a fan of eastern desserts. The service was impeccable, the ambience modern but cozy at the same time. We asked the server to turn down the volume on the great jazz music on the sound system and, once he did, the sound level was perfect. We had a table for 4 that was partly in a recessed nook so it felt very private/public at the same time. I recommend the beverage pairings, too, as they added to the experience.
We have been a few times now and the food and service never disappoint, one of the best meals you can have in the city.
For our anniversary, we tried the omakase (chef's tasting menu). Each dish had a slight sense of nostalgia/familiarity, while subtle culinary twists elevated the food above the traditional dishes we were reminded of. Our favorite was the scallop with soba gnocchi - the scallop arrived searing hot and to perfect doneness; it was one of the best we've ever eaten! I was impressed by the successful incorporation of parmesan cheese into an asian seafood dish. We also received excellent service - attentive, but not overly so, and very informative of each dish's finer points. Near the end of our meal, we even received a plate with "Happy Anniversary!" written in chocolate alongside fresh raspberry sorbet! Overall, a fantastic experience.
I recommend getting the tasting menu if you've never been to takashi. It's a great way to try his best in one setting. Pork belly and scallops are real standouts.
We got the 11 course prix fixe and it was great! There was everything from sashimi to udon to sukiyaki. Would definitely recommend this for a special occasion.
The fashion among top chefs seems to be to mix disparate ingredients and present them beautifully on a plate. All well and good, except when the ingredients are so various and mixed that the palate can neither differentiate nor appreciate any of them. At Takashi, the ingenious menu offered myself and my very exacting Italian husband a rare chance to enjoy food different and special enough to justify the trip (we were visiting from another state) and expense. We opted for the chef's tasting menu. Every dish was a delightful surprise - a thoughtful and well-excecuted grouping of ingredients, which nevertheless did not overdo things. You could taste the ingredients individually and in their creative blending.
We have dined at Takashi repeatedly every since the year it opened. In past, the combination of very good food and a quiet, leisurely pace to the attentive service were the main attractions, now the restaurant seems to have evolved a bit. the food is even better at its best-sublime really( the scallop dishes, the pork belly, the tofu, the duck., the "egg" for dessert.) but a bit less consistent. In a few, part of a portion was flawed, the rest great. The service also was much less appealing. One had the sense of a staff wanting to turn tables fast. It would be great if Takashi could combine the best of the old and best of the new. Despite the flaws, we would happily return again.
We were seated on the second floor toward the front. The setting is intimate and relatively quiet. Our server was well-informed (and interesting) about both the menu and the wine choices of interest to us. We particularly enjoyed the sauteed Maine scallops with Soba Gnocchi (a house specialty and not to be missed) and the heirloom tomato salad, both appetizers. We were relaxed and not rushed in any way. Service was attentive without being intrusive. We'll return.
As a food TV junkie and a proud Chicago resident, I'd been wanting to visit Takashi for some time. Using my birthday as the catalyst, my boyfriend and I made reservations for the big day. Before going, we reviewed the menu online and decided to share two cold plates, two hot plates and one main. Considering we're both petite people, we were full to the brim after adding a dessert to that list. Everything was incredibly good (the beef tartare was our favorite dish with the duck confit and scallops coming in at a close second). Unabashedly, I told the waiter that it was my birthday and when the dessert came out, it was accompanied with a plate that had Happy Birthday written in chocolate - a thoughtful touch to a memorable night.
This was a really great experience. The food was fantastic, the service excellent. I had a show to catch and was pressed on time, the server made sure all our food came out in a timely fashion. The plates were dazzling. I absolutely love this place and will definitely come back! Thank you for making my boyfriends birthday that much more special!
My girlfriend and I had an amazing experience at Takashi! We did the tasting menu and added in the seared foie gras because we love foie, and thank god we did because it was the most delicious thing we ate all night. Sometimes when you do a tasting menu they do 15 courses and 2 or 3 of them are anticlimactic fillers. With this 7 course tasting every plate packs a punch with many different flavors and layers. The waiters are well versed on the menu selections and are very attentive without overdoing it. I highly recommend this restaurant and I do consider myself a food snob. Try this restaurant, you won't be disappointed .
This has to be one of the most flavorful dinners I have ever experienced in this city. We got the tasting menu and each item built on the next with more and more delightful flavors. One of my favorites was the gnocchi with the scallop - simply divine! Takashi himself was even at the restaurant and came over to say hello. I can't wait to go back and try the Japanese tasting menu!
My friend & were visiting for the marathon, had the 7 course family style dinner after running the race...it was a great experience. As a person that loves all asian food, we appreciated the variety of food in addition the many methods of preparation, no two dishes were alike, yet everything was in perfect balance. The service was outstanding as well, a true gem.
This spot has a relaxed, elegant, but non-pretentious atmosphere, which makes for a wonderful romantic evening. The first time I went here, there were some stand-out items, but also a few underwhelming entrees. The second time I came here, I ordered the kaiseki menu with drink pairings, and it was outstanding. Out of 11 courses, there was only one that I found disappointing. In particular, the octopus and scallop crudo with tobanjan vinaigrette was astounding -- I had never had a crudo before where the sauce so perfectly enhanced the oceanic flavors of the fish. The other stand-out was the gorgeous ginger panna cotta dessert topped with a delicate pink watermelon gelee and chopped plum. Overall, one of the best meals I've had in Chicago.
Some of the food was purely Asian, some more French influenced. But all we'll prepared and delicious.
Fun play on food throughout the 11 course tasting. We were overwhelmed with amount of food by the second to last main course and we had two more amazing desserts to go. Delicious as always and it was a pleasure to celebrate yet another anniversary at Tekashi.
Friend and I did the chef's tasting menu. Very good range of flavors, plates were paced well that neither felt rushed nor dragged out. Opted to have individual cocktails over the wine pairing, which were certainly unique flavors in themselves. Enthusiastic wait staff. Great space, we dined upstairs in what looked like a large attic, but was beautifully decorated and well lit--certainly felt intimate. The only plate that really blew us away was the dessert (creme brulee with pistachio macaroon), but all the dishes were all excellent and kept us on our feet as to picking out complex flavors and textures. Fun experience overall. Expensive, but for us it was worth it for a special occasion.
We had a wonderful dinner! I recommend the scallops and the pork buns wich are spectacular.
Everything was just fantastic. I also wanted to comment on the fact that I have an allergy and they were even willing to rework the Omakase(Chef's tasting menu) to accommodate.
Run by a Top Chef Master candidate, this was a fun evening. The chef tasting menu is an awesome experience in Japanese-French fusion art...
This is one of those restaurants where you want to order everything on the menu. If you're looking for flavorful cocktails, an inventive menu, and exquisite flavors... this is your place. We ordered the Duck Confit and Prosciutto Salad, the Soy-Ginger Caramel Pork Belly (which was served in a deconstructed style with hot buns and daikon), the Mugifugi Pork Loin and the Scottish Salmon. Chocolate sticky cake for dessert. Romantic ambience... great for a special occasion. We will definitely be back!
Truly one of the best dining experiences of our lives! Takashi's creative entrée dishes are amazing! A must visit if your ever in Chicago! Thank you for an amazing dining evening!
My wife and I went to Takashi to celebrate her birthday and enjoyed the Sunday Kaiseki meal. We did the 11 course meal with parings and it was fantastic. It reminded us of the Kaiseki meals we had in Japan. I can't think of a better compliment than that. The service was second to none and the environment was just amazing. This is our second time to Takashi and it was as good as we remembered! I would highly recommend this to anyone who loves great food and especially those looking to either revisit some Japanese food they've had in the past or explore some amazing interesting flavors and tastes!
2nd time there, perfect 10 both times. Can't can't say I've ever said that about a restaurant before, go here and enjoy everything.
Years ago a young chef from Ambria started a restaurant in Detroit, Tribute, which I came across while there looking for a site for a business dinner. It was so good then I returned 3 times. Imagine my joy to learn that Takashi had returned to Chicago. The menu is divided three ways: cold, hot and entrees. Tuna crudo was our starter: the crisp pancetta was a perfect topping. Scallops with gnocchi and chanterelles were perfectly seared still moist within. The pork two ways, breaded cutlet and roasted loin, was well seasoned and tasty. Finally, save room for the chocolate creme brûlée which comes delivered in an eggshell accompanied by the perfect macaroon. I would drive to Detroit for this dinner. Happily Takashi is here in Chicago.
Excellent menu. It was hard to commit to a choice because all of the options looked great. Tasting menu is a great way to approach this problem. Everything we ordered was excellent. Have dined at almost every top tier restaurant in Chicago and this now ranks as one of my favorites. Great atmosphere also.
Go with the chef's recommendations (and wine pairing if you're a wine drinker). All of it was good! The scallops with Parmesan sauce and the pork belly were outstanding. Our server was great as was the other wait staff. We will definitely be bringing others back here for dinner. A good place for bringing out of town guests who love food. This is QUALITY not QUANTITY but you will be well fed when you leave. The egg dessert... Do not miss it.
With theatre plans arranged, we easily got reservations at 5:30, and enjoyed an early evening of cocktails, fine wines, and a great selection of dishes off the a la carte menu. Starting with cold octopus and scallops and then a great appetizer portion of scallops, almost a Coquille St. Jacques dish, I was full. Others had salmon and terrine of squash, and monk fish with wonderful flavors. Dessert was a special treat with The Egg, a mousse in an eggshell, and a coconut cake. We easily made the theatre time.

Try some post workout recovery supplement. If you never tried some before, you'll love it. I had some Muscle Pharm Recon which was great. Don't feel as sore post work out when I took that. Their pre workout Assualt is pretty damn good, too. I need to re-up on some more Recon though, ran out of it recently. Currently just drinking my weight gainer shake post workout and then some Casein before I go to bed. |

Both titles appear to only be slated for Japanese at the moment, and Nintendo has said nothing of the games releasing in the rest of the world up to now. The Animal Crossing game has previously been rumoured to be a full-blown MMO (yikes) but, again, Nintendo's said nothing as yet.

Pathfinder Companion: Gnomes of Golarion (PFRPG)
Know Your Gnomes! Exiled from the mysterious fey realm of the First World, gnomes are fundamentally alien to Golarion. Endlessly excitable, gnomes amuse and terrify other races with their strange obsessions and unconventional methods. Their childlike wonder—and sometimes innocent cruelty—are two sides of the same coin, and every coin the gnomes have is spent in pursuit of adventure, whether they like it or not. For the gnomes have a dark secret: should they ever stop seeking out new experiences, they fall prey to the Bleaching, a wasting disease that slowly sucks away their hold on the world, leaving them nothing but bones and dust.
By Colin McComb, Steven Schend, Sean K Reynolds, Owen KC Stephens, Mark Moreland, Jeff Quick, and Hal Maclean Each bimonthly 32-page Pathfinder Companion contains several player-focused articles exploring the volume's theme as well as short articles with innovative new rules for social, magic, religious, and combat-focused characters, as well as a persona section detailing helpful NPCs and traits to better anchor the player to the campaign. ISBN-13: 978-1-60125-223-4 Note: This product is part of the Pathfinder Player Companion Subscription.

BODUM® Online Shop - please choose your country:
Ordning&Reda |
In 2003, the Swedish Ordning&Reda became a part of BODUM® Group. Ordning&Reda have franchise shops in 15 countries and their shop-in-shops in the BODUM® stores offer a coordinated assortment of stylishly beautiful notebooks, diaries, cards, photo albums, stationery, pens, pencils, boxes, bags, and accessories.
From June 2010 BODUM® Scandinavian activities are run from Humleboek (Denmark), making BODUM® neighbour to Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, where BODUM® is Main Sponsor from January 2010.
The Louisiana Museum of Modern Art is located in northern Zealand with a panoramic view across the Øresund. The museum frames the sculpture park facing the sea and the interaction between art, nature and the museum architecture is quite unique.
Louisiana is an international museum with a considerable collection of modern art. The museum's permanent collection includes more than 3000 works and is one of the largest in Scandinavia. It takes its point of departure in the period after 1945 including artists like Picasso, Giacometti, Dubuffet, Yves Klein, Andy Warhol, Rauschenberg, Henry Moore, Louise Bourgeois, Philip Guston, Morris Louis, Jorn, Baselitz, Polke, Kiefer, and Per Kirkeby.
Every year Louisiana offers 4-6 temporary exhibitions, presenting both great modernist artists and the latest international contemporary art in the series Louisiana Contemporary. Throughout the years the museum has persisted in taking the international view as a premise for its exhibitions and Louisiana's status implies that the museum is able to attract future exhibitions and artists of a standard available to only very few Scandinavian museums.
Louisiana's exhibition programme has always covered a wide range primarily focusing on the interaction between the different art forms. Louisiana therefore has a long standing tradition of culture-historical exhibitions and of presenting large, international photo, design and architecture shows. The exhibition activities and the development of the collection are closely linked, and thus the exhibitions often leave their mark on the collection thanks to acquisitions and donations.

Do You Sweat Too Much? 6 Ways to Stop Excessive Sweating
Excessive sweating is known as hyperhidrosis. If you're getting soaked—even when you're not working out—try these tricks for getting heavy perspiration under control.
Sweating at the gym feels great. Sweating on a date or at the office? Not so much. While it's perfectly normal to get drenched when pumping iron or even at a steamy summer barbecue, having pit stains during a romantic dinner or sopping palms when shaking hands can be humiliating. And if you're one of the 8 million Americans with a medical condition known as hyperhidrosis, you sweat four or five times more than normal. Try these six tips to get control of your sweating so you can stay dry for your next big date or presentation.

Concealed Weapons & Permits
Welcome to the Concealed Weapons Permits Unit website. Here you can find all the relevant information pertaining to concealed weapons within the state of Arizona.
Our mission is to provide timely and accurate services to our customers.
We embrace the latest technologies and welcome innovative ideas
to assist our operations in an ever changing industry.
The Concealed Weapons Permit Unit (CWPU) operates under::
Important Information for Applicant
Please include two fingerprint cards with your permit application packet. This will reduce the processing time for your concealed weapons permit.
Due to changes made to A.R.S. 13-3112 during the 2010 and 2011 legislative sessions, effective July 20, 2011, the Concealed Weapons Permit Unit will no longer approve or renew concealed weapons training programs, training organizations, or firearms-safety instructors.
Amendments to A.R.S. 13-3112 in 2010 added a number of new ways in which an applicant could qualify for a concealed weapons permit through training or experience. These new additions removed the statutory minimum requirements which the Unit used to evaluate and approve training programs. Since there are no statutorily defined minimum requirements, the ability of DPS to evaluate, approve and support training programs has been greatly diminished. For this reason, after July 20, 2011, the Concealed Weapons Permit Unit will no longer update, support or sanction the use of the proprietary firearms-safety training course previously used to train permit holders. Furthermore, DPS will no longer review or approve any lesson plans and will no longer publish or update the "Legal Issues Relating to the Use of Deadly Force" guideline.
Additionally, since changes to A.R.S. 13-3112 made in the 2011 legislative session removed the authority for DPS to approve or authorize instructors and organizations, DPS will discontinue this practice. However, for those that currently hold an approval or authorization, current rules will still govern those approvals or authorizations until expiration pursuant to A.A.C. R13-9-309, which provides that a firearms-safety instructor approval is valid for 5 years from the date of issuance or renewal and the authorization of an instructor who holds a valid concealed weapon permit will expire when his current permit expires.
Going forward, liability for use of previously approved training programs rests solely on the instructor and or organization.
Announcements & Information Updates:
Effective March 4, 2013, Nevada no longer recognizes Arizona's concealed weapon permits.
Click here for detail
Please allow 60 business days to process an application for a concealed weapons permit.
Arizona POST has adopted a new handgun qualification course. The 50-Shot Semi-Automatic Qualification Course has been circulating as a draft since last year was approved on November 14, 2012 by the POST Board.

Many ISVs and OEMs have begun to look for a way to move away from embedding or bundling expensive proprietary databases with their products to a more cost effective database solution. This is especially important for ISVs / OEMs as all of the embedded / bundled database's associated costs -- licensing, integration, support, maintenance, and administration -- are added to their products' cost of good sold (COGS), which can negatively impact their profit margins and pricing flexibility. In particular, many ISVs / OEMs are migrating their applications from Microsoft SQL Server because of MySQL Embedded Server's combination of cost-savings, platform freedom, and feature set.
Of course, a migration from any database is not something to be taken lightly; this being the case, many vendors are educating themselves as to the benefits and true effort/costs of moving to an alternative embedded database management system such as MySQL Embedded Server.
This paper provides insight into what is needed when considering a move from SQL Server to MySQL Embedded Server and presents a number of options that help make the transition easy. Both the business and technical sides of migrating to MySQL will be dealt with, so whether you are a product manager or a senior development engineer with years of database experience, you will find the answers you need in order to successfully migrate to the world's most popular open source database - MySQL.

We recently wrote a blog entry for 10:10.
10:10 is an organisation which challenges and encourages people, businesses and organisations to cut their carbon dioxide emissions by 10% in 2010.
Here's what we wrote:
Since signing up to 10:10 we have implemented several small, easy steps that have helped us cut our costs, carbon emissions and energy usage.
We are in the process of switching all our lighting to a combination of L.E.D. and compact fluorescent sources. We have a strict recycling policy to reduce the amount of office waste we throw away and maximise the amount we reuse and recycle. Our thermostat has been turned down a notch (much to the dismay of a few in the office!) Everyone walks, cycles or uses public transport (or a combination of) to get to work and we minimise the amount of international travel by effective communication.
We understand the inherent impacts of manufacturing our shoes and we are very much aware of the resources required to produce, package, ship, sell, and recycle them. Fundamentally a few key decisions in the design process, some careful and meticulous planning and a lot of hard work along the way enables us to offer a great range of shoes while working to reduce our impact.
Our shoes are designed to survive. A long-lasting shoe gives you more wear for the amount of energy that went into its manufacture
The design of a shoe is probably the most important aspect in reducing energy usage and carbon emissions along the supply chain. We at Terra Plana regularly re-evaluate what we can do to minimize waste and toxin use and maximize product use and love.
Here are a few principles we try and stick to:
- We design our shoes so they are lightweight. This not only saves energy when we ship them around the world but it is also better for your feet.
- We minimise the amount of glue by using stitched constructions. Our Pop construction uses no glue whatsoever. Where we have to use glue, our factories endeavour to use water-based adhesives.
- Our shoes are designed to survive. A long-lasting shoe gives you more wear for the amount of energy that went into its manufacture, while our use of traditional shoemaking techniques makes our shoes easier to repair when they do start to wear out.
We use as many recycled materials as possible including recycled plastic bottles
Everything we make requires energy input, but we do make careful choices in the materials we use to keep this to a minimum. We use as many recycled materials as possible including PET (recycled plastic bottles), partially recycled soling rubbers, foam footbeds, nylon heels and quilts from a Pakistani co-operative.
By using vegetable tanned leather we reduce the amount of toxins and heavy metals needed in a normal tanning process. The leather is prepared by using vegetable extracts to create rich and beautiful colours.
Our shoes are manufactured in China, which has a dense network of the most advanced (and eco-friendly) component suppliers in the world. Although helping us minimise our production footprint. Making shoes in China is the most efficient way for us to deliver genuine value to our customers in a sustainable way.

Wild Places
The United States has one of the richest wildland systems in the world. There are plenty of national parks and forests, wilderness study areas and wildlife refuges for you to experience and enjoy.
Our nation has a more than 100-year legacy of working to protect wildlands so they exist for future generations to experience and enjoy. While the United States may be a world leader in protecting wilderness, there is still much work to be done.
Every wildland deserves care — and many are under-protected. At Wilderness, we have been working since 1935 to complete a system of protected wildlands in the United States. This includes officially designated wilderness and other public land designations.
Today we focus on 10 wild places that are critical to completing that system.
Alaska and the Arctic
From the ancient old-growth spruce in the Tongass National Forest to the Arctic Coastal Plain, Alaska is one of the world's greatest wild places to visit.
From stunning Sierra forests to vast desert vistas, California has spectacular wildlands, many within a short drive from Los Angeles and other major urban centers.
Colorado Plateau
The Colorado Plateau is one of the last remnants of the wild west. This wild, untamed area covers parts of Arizona, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico and Wyoming.
Crown of the Continent
The Crown of the Continent in Montana's Rocky Mountains is just as wild today as when Lewis and Clark traveled it more than 200 years ago.
North Cascades
The North Cascades is a rugged landscape stretching 13 million acres of wild country in Washington state, from the Canadian border to the foothills of Mt. Rainier.
Northern Forest
The Northern Forest, which stretches across New England, is known for its breath-taking scenery, abundant wildlife and world-class recreation. It is one of America's greatest natural treasures.
Southern Appalachians
With its cool waterfalls, serene woods and brilliant wildflowers, the wild forests of the Southern Appalachians draw thousands of visitors each year.
Other places we work
In addition to the seven key landscapes listed, The Wilderness Society also works on important wilderness issues in:
