Buying a new home should be a thrilling experience. Individuals want to find the perfect home for their family to make lasting memories. However, homes are not cheap, so people need to find the lowest interest rates possible. Wirefly is a great resource to help buyers get the tools and information they need to get the best rate. Homebuyers do not want to pay more for a home than is necessary, so it is important to compare and research mortgage rates in Marion, LA.
Very few people can afford to pay for a home loan in cash. Therefore, individuals will need a mortgage to pay for the new home. Homes will range in price from under $50,000 to over a million. Even with the lowest priced home, it would be very difficult to purchase without a loan. There are several factors that influences the interest rate of a home loan. If a borrower has a good credit score, he is more likely to get a lower rate on the loan. Lenders will consider the borrow more likely to make payments if he has excellent credit. When comparing lenders, individuals want to find the lowest rate possible, so they will save money. It is not a good idea for borrowers to listen to their real estate agent or other people try to tell them which lender to choose. Real estate agents make a commission off of borrowers, and when a deal closes quickly, the agent will get paid sooner. Borrowers need to research their options and be patient. A home loan is a huge investment, so it is best not to rush the process. Individuals have numerous options when finding a lender. They can look at some local businesses in Marion, LA, or they can try a larger business. People should look at all rates to get the best comparison. Wirefly will give people an accurate rate tool, so they can find the lowest rates in Marion, LA.
For homebuyers in Marion, LA, there is an assortment of mortgage options available. These types of loans are created to suit all sorts of different needs. Here are a few of the most common types and who they will work the best for.
Adjustable Rate Mortgage Loans: These loans are also known as ARMs. The interest rate on these Marion, LA loans can change over time. In general, the interest rate will fluctuate every year after an initial fixed interest period. This is known as a hybrid product because it starts with a fixed interest rate and switches to a variable interest rate.
Fixed Rate Mortgage Loans: These home loans have the same interest rate for the duration of the loan agreement. If you obtain a fixed interest loan in Marion, LA, your monthly payments will remain the same every month until the loan is completely paid off. This fact does not change even with long-term loans, including a 30 year fixed rate loan. The interest rate and monthly payment amount do not change for the whole term.
Some homebuyers in Marion, LA require a little extra help when they are taking on a large mortgage. Typically, these are first-time homebuyers. The government has stepped in and helped homebuyers by creating the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), which backs up lenders in cases when a buyer defaults on their loan. The advantage to a buyer is that they do not have to come up with a large down payment. They may be able to fund just 3.5 percent of the total purchase price. Another government backed loan is a VA loan. It has the advantage of not requiring a person to have any down payment. It also does not require a buyer to pay mortgage insurance. Veterans of the United States military are the only individuals who are eligible for a VA loan.
If you are looking to refinance your home in Marion, LA, it is essential to comprehend that you are actually applying for a brand new mortgage. This means that closing costs may be your responsibility upon approval of the application. If you are hoping to decrease your interest rate by refinancing, you should evaluate whether the extra fees will negate any savings you gain from refinancing to a lower interest rate.
There is an exception to this rule if you are refinancing from an adjustable rate mortgage to a fixed rate option. Since rates are almost guaranteed to increase in the future, a fixed rate loan protects you against rising interest rates. For individuals searching for the best interest rate on their mortgage, it is crucial to be deemed 'low-risk' by lenders. The best way to achieve this status is by maintaining a credit score over 700 and keeping a low debt-to-income ratio. However, even if you fail to meet the most strict standards, you may still qualify for an excellent mortgage rate in Marion, LA.
Wirefly offers great deals on a large selection of smartphones, cell phones, tablets, mobile hotspots, and other wireless devices for the nation's most popular carriers. Use Wirefly's innovative cell phone and plan comparison tools to ensure you are getting the best deal on the market.

December 12, 2017 (http://www.president.gov.ua) Relations between Poland and Ukraine have deteriorated as the national narratives of each side collide head-on. Polish President Andrzej Duda's visit to Ukraine will go ahead despite an explosion that damaged a Polish tourist bus, his office announced yesterday. Duda will visit Ukraine as planned tomorrow "despite various incidents," Pawel Mucha, the deputy head of the Polish president's chancellery, told Radio Poland, Interfax-Ukraine reports. No one was injured when an explosive device, described as a grenade by witnesses, went off under an empty Polish tourist bus near the western city of Lviv on Saturday. Warsaw and Kyiv both condemned the incident, the Irish Times reports. "Someone is trying hard to put us at odds with Poland and disrupt the visit of President Duda. We will do everything to investigate this incident. And I say to the provocateurs – you won't succeed," Ukrainian Foreign Minister Pavel Klimkin said. The official reason for President Duda's visit to Ukrainian is to discuss with his counterpart President Petro Poroshenko in Kharkiv the security situation in conflict-torn eastern Ukraine, but soothing strained bilateral relations is the subtext, the Irish Times says.
Many see the meeting in Kharkiv between Polish President Duda and Ukrainian President Poroshenko as an attempt to smooth recently strained relations. Image: Petro Poroshenko/ Facebook
Longstanding differences over massacres of Ukrainian and Polish civilians during World War II have risen to the surface in the past year, compounded by several incidents of vandalism at Polish war cemeteries and memorials in Ukraine. Polish Foreign Minister Witold Waszczykowski recently accused Kyiv of ramping up tension by blocking the work of a Polish team searching for the remains of Polish war crime victims. Warsaw retaliated last month by barring entry to the secretary of a Ukrainian commission for remembrance when he tried to cross the border, Radio Poland reported. Waszczykowski had earlier said Warsaw was considering barring Ukrainians with "anti-Polish views" from entering the country.
In the Kharkiv region, Presidents of Ukraine and Poland paid tribute to the victims of the totalitarian regime

Current Theme Song (aka what's playing on my ipod right now): Mad World by Gary Jules.
My reviews are a bit different than most. As an undercover superhero (ordinary girl extraordinaire), my purpose is to try and uncover hidden gems lost from the familiar radar. Because of this, I have set up some guidelines for myself (just like the pirate code). :)
I will focus on YA and Children's literature (with very rare exceptions).
I will not review any book that is one of the top 25,000 selling books (based on Amazon ranks).
I will try and aim for books 100,000 or larger.
I will review recent books or books of great merit (preferably both).
The Arrival by Shaun Tan
Published: October 1, 2007
Publisher: Arthur A. Levine Books
Pages: 128
Current Amazon Rank: #4,575
Author's Website: http://www.shauntan.net/
Want it? Find it here.
The First Line:
My Take: I am breaking one of my most cardinal rules for how I judge what book I will review. This is definitely under the top 25,000 best-selling books on amazon. And there is good reason for that. It is wonderful.
This is a wordless graphic novel four years in the making. It tells the story of a man who must go ahead of his family to a new country, and hopefully prepare the way for them to follow. I really am having a hard time finding words to adequately express how I feel about this book. It is... beautiful. Sad, and beautiful and it stays with you. The illustrations are so detailed and intricate, every confusion and trial he has to face is painfully drawn and you ache for him and feel joy with him as he navigates this new and foreign world.
Shaun Tan masterfully captures all of this by placing us in a world far removed from our own, complete with flying ships, towering (and beautifully elaborate) geometrical structures, and a language as foreign as anything you've ever seen. Without any words, we are placed in the same position as he is, and that confusion and that ache intensifies even more because you can feel you are him.
And the illustrations. This is a book to be read slowly. Even though it is barely over 125 pages, you could easily take an entire afternoon immersing yourself in it. You can get lost in these images.
And this has one of the most delightful creatures I've ever encountered in visual fiction. His "pet" is beyond adorable. I want one. I cannot tell you how much I want one.
The Final Word: Gorgeous, heart-wrenching and heart-warming, this is an beautiful story that I keep returning to, just for a peek, then find myself lost completely in all over again.
[Update]: I just flipped through it again and started crying. In a good way.

The Federal Reserve approved a half-percentage point cut in its discount rate on loans to banks Friday, a dramatic move designed to stabilize financial markets roiled by a widening credit crisis.
The action had an immediate positive impact on Wall Street after days of losses. The Dow Jones industrial average shot up more than 300 points in early trading before surrendering some gains. The blue-chip index closed with a gain of almost 2%.
The decision means that the discount rate, the interest rate that the Fed charges to make direct loans to banks, will be lowered to 5.75 percent, down from 6.25 percent.
The Fed did not change its target for the more important federal funds rate, which has remained at 5.25 percent for more than a year. Friday's move was not expected to have an immediate impact on consumer borrowing.
However, it has been infusing billions of dollars in money into the banking system over the past week to keep that rate from rising above the target level.
Private economists praised the action by Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke and his colleagues, saying it should help steady jittery markets although many expect a cut in the federal funds rate to follow.
"This is fine for temporary relief, but I think they will still have to cut the funds rate because the markets will still be turbulent," said David Wyss, chief economist at Standard & Poor's in New York.
The move to cut the discount rate will not have a major impact on consumer interest rates in the way that cutting the federal funds rate triggers an immediate drop in banks' prime lending rate, the benchmark for millions of consumer and business loans.
However, Friday's move was expected to help with a severe cash crunch facing many businesses, including mortgage companies, which are having trouble getting loans for short-term financing needs.
In a statement explaining the action, the Fed said that while incoming data suggest the economy is continuing to expand at a moderate pace, "the downside risks to growth have increased appreciably."
White House deputy press secretary Tony Fratto declined to comment on the announcement but said, "We have full confidence in the Federal Reserve on these issues and respect their independence."
The Fed said it was "monitoring the situation and is prepared to act as needed to mitigate the adverse effects on the economy arising from the disruptions in financial markets."
The Fed said that "financial market conditions have deteriorated and tighter credit conditions and increased uncertainty have the potential to restrain economic growth going forward."
The cut in the discount rate was approved by the Fed's board, which controls this rate. However the policy statement policy announcement was approved unanimously by the Federal Open Market Committee, the larger group of Fed board members in Washington and Fed regional bank presidents who set the federal funds rate.
Economists saw that as a significant signal that the Fed stood ready to cut the funds rate, which has been at 5.25 percent since June 2006 when the Fed wrapped up a two-year rate tightening campaign aimed at slowing economic growth enough to keep inflation under control.
The discount rate covers only loans that the Fed makes directly to banks. By moving it to 5.75 percent, the Fed put it closer to the funds rate. The central bank also announced other technical changes to make it easier for banks to get discount loans, such as extending the time the credit will be supplied to up to 30 days.
The nation's once high-flying housing market is sinking deeper into gloom, and credit, the lifeblood of the economy, is drying up. Many economists believe these problems, including declining consumer confidence, could lead to a recession.
Since setting a record close of 14,000.41 just a month ago, the Dow Jones industrial average has shed 1,154.63 points in a string of triple-digit losing days that have raised anxiety levels not just on Wall Street but on Main Street as well.
The markets have been pummeled by a rapidly spreading credit crisis that began with rising defaults in subprime mortgages -- home loans made to people with weak credit histories. Now the problems are spreading to other borrowers.
Countrywide Financial, the nation's largest mortgage banker, was forced to borrow $11.5 billion on Thursday so it could keep making home loans. It was a move that rattled investors who have watched a number of smaller mortgage companies go under because of credit problems.
The shockwaves have extended to giant Wall Street investment firms such as Goldman Sachs, which announced earlier this week that it was pumping $2 billion into one of its struggling hedge funds. BNP Paribas, France's largest bank, last week froze three funds that had invested in the troubled U.S. mortgage market.
The Fed and other central banks already had infused the banking system with billions of dollars in an effort to keep short-term interest rates from surging and making credit even more difficult to obtain. However, those billions did not calm investors worried about which big hedge fund or mortgage company will be the next to announce serious problems. For that reason, investors have become fearful to supply money through credit markets to companies even if they have strong credit records.

This book by Lisa Holland-McNair is a fantastic read. Check out the abstract below.
Red Dust in Her Veins: Women of the Pilbara
The 12 women interviewed in this book all share a strong attachment to the physical and spiritual beauty of the Pilbara, in the north-west of Western Australia. A common bond between the four Indigenous and eight non-Indigenous women, whose stories we have published, is not only this love of the landscape but also the various difficulties they have faced, and the opportunities they have created, in this remote and awe-inspiring region.

Building collapse in Paradise Township injures about 12
People had gathered under pavi
State police said a building collapsed in Paradise Township, Lancaster County, about 8:30 p.m. Friday during a strong storm.
Between 10 and 12 people were injured when a pavilion collapsed at Paradise Township Park on London Vale Road and Lincoln Highway East.
People had taken refuge under the pavilion to escape the storm.
Police said the wind picked up suddenly and tossed the metal roof like a toy, trapping the people underneath.
State police said between 10 and 12 people were taken to Lancaster General Hospital, mostly children between the ages of 8 and 13 with minor injuries. Some of the victims were parents.
Police said one man had a broken leg and another had a cut on his head.
Many emergency workers were called to the scene. Some of them described a dramatic situation.
"When you got there you had people everywhere and it was just a matter of getting everybody out of the scene making sure all the injured were in a specific area-like a triage area," said Cpl. Michael Spada of the Pennsylvania State Police. "There were some lucky people down here tonight."
"It sounded almost like a freight train coming through. Power went off. And all kinds of sirens coming through. Came out to see this. Trees down. Lines down and a pavilion down," said neighbor Alan Harbaugh.
Emergency workers said their biggest challenge was the fact this field is so muddy from the heavy rain.
One fire truck had to be pulled out of the field by a bulldozer.
Police said things were so messy when they arrived. They had to carry some of the injured in their arms to ambulances up the street.
Emergency responders said the one saving grace in the story is that there were cars nearby. Part of the pavilion's roof landed on a vehicle.
Police said had they not been there, the situation could have been much worse.
Parts of New Providence Township also had reports of storm damage. Streets reporting damage were Main Street, Solar Drive, Hallow Road and Bar Road.

Passing tax cuts in an already strong economy violates the important fiscal principle, says Jared Bernstein, former chief economist to Vice President Joe Biden, in The Washington Post Wednesday.
"When we close [in] on full economic capacity, as is currently the case, tax revenues as a share of the economy should significantly rise, and deficits should fall," Bernstein writes. "Instead, revenues have come way down, and deficits have climbed."
As this chart provided by Bernstein shows, lower unemployment has historically been strongly correlated with falling deficits. But that relationship is no longer in effect in the wake of the GOP tax cuts.
Why does it matter? Bernstein says that the current procyclical policy will make it much harder to meet the fiscal challenges facing the country, especially once the next recession hits. "Based on our aging demographics alone, we've long known that we will need more revenue over the next decade, not less," Bernstein writes. "Add in geopolitical threats, climate change and the damage from increasingly intense storms (which is tied to the warmer climate), infrastructure, the need to push back on poverty and inequality, counter-cyclical fiscal policy that will be needed for the next downturn, and, it's not hard to understand why a rising deficit at full economic capacity is so ill-advised."

World War II had its "V-mail" – photographed, miniaturized letters both to and from servicemen. Today's war has e-mail.
"In Iraq, there were guys who'd been in for more than 20 years who would constantly give us young guys crap," about using technology to communicate, says Marcus Penn, a 25-year-old Marine from Beaufort, S.C. "They'd say, 'When I was in Desert Storm, we didn't have e-mail. I went for a month and a half without talking to my family.' We'd say, 'Welcome to the 21st century.' "
Aside from e-mail, and depending on access and availability, 21st century military men and women have a host of technological options to help them stay in touch with friends and family back home: cell phones, Skype voice calls using the Internet- e-cards, instant messaging, message CDs, and even social media sites like Facebook.
Penn, who spent eight months in the Al Anbar province of Iraq in 2007, didn't have access to a cell phone or Skype, but he did have e-mail capability.
"My wife still has my e-mails," he says. "I sent 1,845 from the day I left to the day I got back. That's not counting the Google chats."
Although he was fighting halfway around the world, Penn says Internet access and e-mail helped him feel much less isolated.
"Whenever we lost somebody, whenever somebody died, we'd go into communications blackout — it's part of the military procedure to protect the family until notification is made," he says. "We'd basically cut off all access to the outside world — no phones, no Internet. And you'd feel that absence. When you'd come out of it, it would be a giant relief. You realized the world was still out there."
Technology also helped him keep track of important developments back home.
"Our daughter was born two months before I left," he says. "But my wife was awesome about taking pictures and uploading them to Google's Picasa" photo-sharing site. "She would take about a week's worth of pictures and then upload them in one big batch. It definitely closed up the distance."
'On a business trip'
Tonya Gustafson, a 26-year-old Seattle marketing consultant whose husband left for Iraq five months after their 2008 wedding, says the ability to keep in constant contact made an "enormous difference" in her brand-new marriage.
"It felt like one of us was on a business trip and would be home shortly," she says. "There was enough communication that it didn't feel like he was so far away. It was still difficult and I would spend nights crying, but he told me ahead of time what technology they had. I knew we'd be able to connect daily."
Gustafon's husband, a member of the Washington State National Guard who was deployed for more than a year, primarily used Skype to stay in touch.
"He paid $3 a month to be able to call my cell phone with his Skype account," she says. "I would wake up at 4:30 a.m. to talk to him for about an hour before going to the gym. It was the highlight of my day. I would even make a 'talk list,' things I wanted to remember to tell him or funny things that happened throughout the day. Although 10 hours later, they sometimes weren't as funny."
Gustafson says she believes keeping in touch via Skype and e-mail helped make her marriage stronger.
"A year passed and we didn't skip a beat," she says. "I'd actually say it benefited our relationship because the only way we had to express ourselves was by talking. Most couples take for granted how often they get to see their spouse; they don't realize how much they communicate through non-verbal means. You can't have that when they're deployed. You have to come up with the words to express yourself at every moment. I think our relationship deepened."
Technical difficulties
Of course, not all deployed personnel have access to all the latest, greatest technology.
Whitney Izzo, a 25-year-old director of operations from Carlsbad, Calif., says her fiancée, currently stationed in Afghanistan, has only been able to use Skype once.
"Some families get to Skype all the time or have e-mail or communicate through Facebook," she says. "I'm so glad that some people have that, but it's definitely not something everybody has."
Izzo says she and her fiancée use letters, e-mail, and a cell phone to keep in touch, but that technical difficulties are often a problem.
"The Internet is slow and is not always reliable," she says. "And the same goes for the cell phones. You have to hope the cell towers are working. Or that the circuits aren't busy. Sometime, it will take maybe three hours to finally get through, then we'll talk for two minutes and get cut off. There's not always great communication."
Base telephones also have issues, she says.
"Even on the larger bases, it's basically a ton of people in one tiny room with no privacy," she says. "They're great when they have them set up," but even then, her fiancée "has to wait in a line that could be an hour long."
Allison Hester, a 40-year-old freelance graphic designer - from North Little Rock, Ark., says she usually communicates with her husband via e-mail, but has found not everything gets through the military's firewall.
"I sent my husband a couple of videos, but the military computer system wouldn't let him open them," she says. "He also couldn't do Facebook or anything like that because of security concerns."
Hester says during her husband's current deployment — he just left for a 14-month tour of duty in Afghanistan — the two will most likely rely on letters.
"Eventually he'll be able to get e-mail, but I imagine it's mostly going to be snail mail," she says. "We're the non-technology people."
Old vs. new
While today's communications choices are vast and growing each day -- a new startup, Speaksake.com, - compiles and sends CDs full of recorded messages to soldiers at war -- many agree there are still benefits to communicating the old-fashioned way.
"I certainly think the ability to communicate through e-mail and through telephone is important," says Susan Ross, associate professor of sociology at Lycoming College in Williamsport, Pa.. "But it doesn't diminish the importance of a care package or actual letter. A care package is a symbolic gesture. It says: 'I've taken the time to gather things for you, wrap it all up, go to the post office and ship it.' It's very tangible evidence that you're not forgotten."
Letters, too, require more time and thought, says Stephanie Coontz, director of research and public education for the Council on Contemporary Families.
"I do think steady communication can be a real boon for parted couples," says Coontz, also a social historian and author of "Marriage, A History."
"But the big advantage of letters is that people used to compose them, often over a few days, and think through what they wanted to say. If we did the same with e-mails, instead of just rapid-fire back and forth, it might allow couples to reach even more depth."
Whitney Izzo, whose fiancée is currently in Afghanistan, says she sees advantages in both the old and the new ways.
"Letters are something you can have forever," she says. "You can go back and reread them. It's something physical and tangible that you can keep. But it's wonderful getting something instantly. That's one thing that technology has been able to bring to people overseas. It's dangerous there and you don't know what happens on a day-to-day basis. To get something instantly means you know that two hours ago, he was OK."

Do Dinosaurs Still Exist?
Colorado River Dinosaur/Mini T-rex
I live in Pueblo, Colorado. I moved out here when I was six and have since heard stories of the praire devil, the pig man and the mini-rex….
Me and my friend were riding dirt bikes…..when we observed something move across the clearing in front of us. It was three to four feet long, greenish with black markings on its back, and a yellowish-orange underbelly.
It walked on its hind legs, never dragging its tail, its front limbs (I call them limbs because they were more like arms than anything) [like a T=rex?] were smaller in comparison to the back ones and it had four or three claws. …..
It also had some kind of lump or horn over each eye. When it noticed our presence, it let out a high pitched screech…
…Immediately, we rode back to my house for a camera…. We took a picture of its tracks…one of my other friends said he had a few pictures of the creature, so I took a look at them and to my surprise I saw pictures of the exact same thing I saw.. North American Bio Fortean Review
Colorado's Mystery Reptile Could Be Mini Dinosaur
[Original headline: Mystery reptile loose in county?]
Could the Southwest be home to a mysterious new species of reptile? Nick Sucik, a private researcher from Minnesota, thinks it's possible. Sucik has been tracking sightings of an elusive lizard-like creature ever since hearing tales of "river dinosaurs" from those involved in the legally sketchy "reptile trade."
The "dino" is said to walk exclusively on its hind legs; to stand about 3 feet tall; and to have armlike appendages instead of forelegs. The reptile usually is seen near a wet environment and moves swiftly, with grace, Sucik said.
Reports of sightings trickled in, first in Pagosa Springs in 1982, then in Pueblo, Sucik said.
And, he said, the same thing happened here in Cortez — "But it was kind of unexpected how we heard about it."
An Unsolved Mysteries episode had featured the story of a Cortez couple who had been visiting in Arizona. While there, the couple apparently saw the body of a reptile unlike any they had ever seen before. "It looked like a toy to them," Sucik said, and when they told their tale, "No one took them seriously."
Except, perhaps, for Sucik himself.
In an attempt to follow up on the story, Sucik wrote the Journal and later placed a classified ad, seeking communication from anyone who might have seen the enigmatic reptile. The letter netted a response from Northern California, but the ad brought results from closer to home.
According to Sucik, a woman and her daughter e-mailed him details of a similar sighting that took place in 2001 as they were driving in the Yellow Jacket area.
"Suddenly, this thing runs out. At first, they thought it was a young deer, because of its size," Sucik said.
The women described it as having a long neck and skinny legs like a bird. However, it had no feathers and its "arms" seemed to go out of its upright neck rather than its body.
The women estimated that the creature would measure about 5 feet, if stretched from neck to tail.
"It looked to them like a cross between a bird and a dinosaur." When they got home, each drew a picture of the creature and realized they had each seen exactly the same thing, he said.
The description matched that of other sightings, and the women happened to have been near an irrigation creek. "Every reference we've heard usually affiliates them with water," Sucik said. "That's where the term 'River Dino' comes from."
Sucik discovered it wasn't the first sighting in the area. In March or April 1996, a local woman said she saw something similar near her home at the Kampark outside Mesa Verde.
"I was sitting on the couch, and looked out the front door," the woman, who did not wish to be identified, told the Journal. "I saw something, not a lizard, really, about 3 1/2 feet long and 3 1/2 feet high. It moved very fast. As far as I remember, there were only two legs that seemed to balance it."
She said the creature moved very swiftly, and had a cone-shaped nose and a tail that extended about 2 feet out from its body. It had come from a pond area.
"It was kind of unusual," she said "I didn't know if I was seeing things, or what. I never had anything like that happen before. "I thought, 'Maybe it's someone's pet', I wasn't frightened; I just thought it was unusual."
She checked reference books, but could not find anything similar to what she'd seen. Jeff Thulin of the Reptile Reserve told her it might have been a monitor lizard, however, monitors could not live throughout the winter locally.
Thulin said others have since mentioned that they have seen "a large lizard running around. I don't know any specifics at all except that it's large and looks out of place."
"It doesn't match anything," he said of the description. The woman said she has tried to put it out of her mind. "Some people think you're nuts."
Sucik isn't sure what people have seen. A lizard, he said, "is a reptile on four legs. These reptiles are always on their hind legs. The only reptile to fit that morphology is a dinosaur — that kind of creates extra interest."
"It's not strange. It's like a new species that hasn't been classified in the area."
Sucik said it's possible the reptile is an escapee from trade in exotic pets. Even so, the description doesn't match anything known, he said.
He welcomes reports of sightings at email@example.com or 22969 Old Gov Trail, Nisswa, MN 56468, and also suggests checking www.herper.com/nabr/nabr4.pdf

Close to the Monster
Astronomers are getting closer than ever to seeing the supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy M87, which is shown here in a combination of radio (red) and X-ray (blue) wavelengths. The image shows "jets" of charged particles shooting away from the black hole, which is about 6.6 billion times as massive as the Sun and three times wider than Pluto's orbit around the Sun. Although the black hole is 50 million light-years away, it is so huge that it presents the best chance for astronomers to actually photograph a black hole's event horizon -- the point of no escape for anything that falls into the black hole. Such an image could be snapped sometime in the next couple of years, according to Texas astronomer Karl Gebhardt, who made the most accurate measurement of the black hole's mass to date.

Department of Earth and Oceanographic Science, Bowdoin College
Jump Down To: Two Retreats: Opportunities for Reflection | The Process of Transformation | The Results | Lessons Learned
Introduction: Not a Typical Geology Department
In the fall of 2009, the Bowdoin Geology Department had an external review. In the process of preparing for the review, the department recognized an opportunity to redefine themselves. They had not been a typical geology department for the past several decades, even for a small department (3 faculty members) at a small liberal arts college: the three faculty members were a petrologist, a geomorphologist, and a physical oceanographer. In 2009, a newly hired oceanographer chose the Geology Department as her intellectual home, making the department even less typical. Moreover, the number of majors was small (3-7 majors/year) given the college's outstanding location for field studies on the Maine coast. As the review approached, the department set aside time for reflection and strategic planning via two retreats.
Two Retreats: Opportunities for Reflection
The first retreat focused on Earth System Science, and included faculty members from several departments on campus. All of the geology faculty were involved, as well as representatives from physics, chemistry, biology, and environmental studies program. As the discussion revolved around integrated earth systems thinking, the faculty involved in this retreat focused their attention on the question of how to prepare the next generation of scientists. Their consensus perspective was that as the Earth is changing, so must the study of the Earth change over time.
The second retreat was a more internally-focused preparation for the department's external review. During this retreat, the faculty noted their shared interest in systems thinking, and they considered the question of how they could strengthen this aspect of their academic program. Consulting recent publications from the National Research Council, as well as an article in Liberal Education on educating the next generation of citizens and scientists (see references), they reflected on possible changes for the department. During the departmental review, reviewers offered constructive criticism and had significant conversations with the Dean and President. The department welcomed the criticism and used it as a catalyst for the transformation.
The Process of Transformation
The department's central approach to curriculum revision was to examine their curriculum (and each contributing course) with a focus on students' needs, and with an eye to future citizens. Working backward from their twin goals of educating future citizens about earth systems and the process of science and educating future scientists to be systems thinkers, they built a sequence of experiences that would fulfill those goals. They thought about how to structure their introductory level courses to engage students -- most of whom will not become scientists -- in authentic scientific research, investigating some aspect of the earth system. They developed a new, 200-level integrative course in biogeochemistry that explores the earth system from an interdisciplinary perspective. They revised existing courses to add or strengthen a systems thinking component into every class. They devised new courses, where appropriate, to fill the gaps in their new framework. And they added research-project and capstone courses that further develop students' earth systems perspective. In short, they revised their curriculum to meet the anticipated learning needs of future students.
The Results
The departmental website describes the details of the new Bowdoin Earth and Oceanographic Science curriculum . Major features include:
- Multiple introductory courses (each with a different focus, e.g. earth's crust, earth's oceans, environmental geology, rivers) with authentic research that draw majors into the program and provide gateways to scientific literacy for the broader student population;
- An integrative 200-level course in Biogeochemistry—a unifying theme within earth-system science;
- A suite of 200-level core courses and electives that expose students to the breadth of earth system science: students are required to take at least one course each from offerings in solid earth, surface processes, and oceanography;
- Upper-level research-project courses in which students apply their knowledge and skills to substantive questions and problems;
- Capstone seminars that reinforce the integrated nature of earth systems, immerse students within the scientific literature, and provide opportunities to practice scientific writing.
One very real consequence of the department's transformation was the college's realization that to do justice to the new curriculum, the department would need to grow. The department that initially had three faculty members, now has six: two solid-earth faculty, two surface-processes faculty, and two oceanography faculty. Previously the average number of graduating seniors was seven; department faculty were thrilled when twenty-eight sophomores recently declared a major in Earth and Oceanographic Science. They credit this increase in majors in large part to the revised curriculum, an increase in the breadth of the faculty, and a fall department field seminar in Acadia National Park.
Lessons Learned
One of the surprising lessons the department learned in the process of redefining themselves is how important it is to choose words carefully. As they considered options for their new name, Earth and Ocean Science was rejected because it was perceived as including marine biology, which the department does not. They chose to become the Department of Earth and Oceanographic Science instead. Similarly, when the department described their new program as "interdisciplinary," colleagues interpreted that to mean that it would be multi-departmental. However, when the department described their new program as "integrative," that problem was resolved. While these differences in word choices may appear to be minor, the department found that the difference in response was significant.

This Beautiful Ranger 31 represents a great opportunity to buy a lightly used and very well equipped Ranger 31 CB in fantastic condition! Equipped with nearly every option offered by Ranger Tugs and with only 208 hours on her Volvo D4 engine, this R31 is ready for extended cruising now.
This Ranger Tug 31 Command Bridge, like most other Ranger Tugs, comes essentially turnkey with standard features and equipment intended to make her owner's experience hassle-free and allow for ease of handling and comfort under way. Standard equipment includes bow and stern thrusters, an optional aft steering station and a Volvo D4 300 Hp engine.
Upgrades Include:
The R-31 CB (Command Bridge) shares many of the features and qualities of her smaller sisterships but some notable additions to this larger model make her ideal for extended cruising while still being a trailerable trawler. The R-31 is the first Ranger Tug to feature a flybridge equipped with electronic controls at both the upper and lower helm. The flybridge also retracts to allow for trailering the 31'. The builders at Ranger Tugs also equipped the foredeck with seating and a table that can be raised or lowered depending on whether the boat is under way or at anchor or dock for entertaining. In addition to the extra seating now available on the flybridge and foredeck the R-31 allows for a larger cockpit area with wraparound seating and extra seating that folds out of the gunwale. When not entertaining, seats are folded leaving the cockpit unencumbered.
The interior layout of the R-31 features two staterooms—one large island berth forward with en suite head and a midship berth and day head. Those who are familiar with Ranger Tugs models will recognize the galley layout and lower helm station that maximize interior space. A starboard side door provides easy access from the lower helm to the side decks so crew can get to the bow for line handling.
Like all Ranger Tugs, the R-31 comes essentially turnkey with standard features and equipment intended to make her owner's experience hassle-free and allow for ease of handling and comfort under way. Standard equipment includes bow and stern thrusters, an optional aft steering station and a Volvo D4 300hp engine that achieves a 16 knot cruise speed.
• Flybridge with dual station electronic controls
• Pilot House door at helm for easy access to the bow
• Bow and stern thruster for easy maneuverability
• Two staterooms, with dinette, sleeps six
• Forward stateroom with an island berth, en suite head and shower
• Midship stateroom with double berth and day head
• 15+ knot cruise speed
• Trailerable (Flybridge retracts for trailering).

This post cracked me up! "dog balls" ...I'm going to add that to my wind adjective list.matthepp wrote: ↑Wed May 24, 2017 1:38 amThe last storm has helped to keep things covered at Lizard Head. The snow is still pretty fun. The wind today on the other hand, yikes! I am a connoisseur of junky wind and let me tell you this stuff was dog balls. One second the kite would out of the sky, the next second a gust would literally yank me 20 feet straight downwind through the air. If anyone heads up there, I think my spine got yanked out so keep an eye peeled for it. Then to add insult to injury I tried one last jump over the running creek where I came up short and splatted in the far side mud bank. Was glad to make it outta there in one piece.
The ice is the best thing

How long has it been since you and your "other half" were on a date? If you are like me you are sitting there trying to remember. Has it been that long? Seems like everyone is cutting back their spending and trying to save more. But it is so important that we continue some things like spending quality time with our significant other. Not only do we deserve it, we NEED it! Madame Deals and Living on Love and Cents have teamed up to bring you Dating on a Dime. Go here to see the prevous posts.
From Madame Deals: I often feel like if we could only steal fifteen minutes away without any interruptions each day then we are doing great. We have had many meals together over the years. It was so easy before kids. We used to have lunch together often. The problem now is life, work, kids, and time constraints gets in the way. I figured there has to be a way to recover lunch. I was in town groceries shopping so I called my husband and invited him to lunch at a local restaurant. The bill was under $20 and we had a great date. We went to a place with a salad bar buffet to save time. It was easy to get him to come I told him the lunch was on me. We have also in the past had sandwiches in the car.If you aren't able to leave the house have lunch over the phone. We have even had meals together via skype when my husband was out of the country. It really doesn't matter where you are it is who you are with.
From Living on Love and Cents: I am the same way! Now that I am a SAHM I try to find ways to make lunch dates with my husband. If you are like me and your husband works strange hours you can try having a picnic lunch. How? Put the kids down for a nap (this may mean an early or late lunch for you) then make some sandwiches. Head to the backyard with a blanket and lunch. Take a monitor with you so you can hear the kids. Or if you prefer do the picnic in the living room. Either way sit on a blanket and enjoy a simple sandwich lunch with your sweetie. Enjoy your quality time alone. However short it may be.
There are a lot of great local deal sites where you can find something new and exciting to do without breaking the bank.

Thailands beaches are just made for kitesurfers and all who want to become one. The warm water and steady winds makes it a pure pleasure of learning the sport. Friendly locals, the beautiful setting and the famous Thai cuisine rounds your perfect kite holiday experience.Thailand - view details
Learning to kitesurf on Fehmarn offers many advantages in contrast to other areas of Germany: for each wind direction you find the perfect spots that can be reached quickly and easily.

Montenegro - an insider tip. The cities here are still off the beaten track and untouched as 30 Years ago, something very rare in europe nowadays. The almost untouched nature and its endless space defines Montenegro as the perfect location for those who want to enjoy a more relaxed kite vacation. With a good amount of wind and the pleasant mediteranen climate defines Ulcinij as a perfect Spot. World class conditions in europe.Montenegro - view details

Slammers came down from Colorado in hopes of facing better
Colorado, we don't see this kind of baseball as much as we do out
a lot more of a priority down here so it's good for our guys to
come down and see the type of guys that play down here and the type
of baseball they (play)," added Holzemer. "It's really good for
our guys to come compete against these guys."

lucky to come to the Perfect Game events and do pretty well, and it's
been great baseball for us," said Holzemer. "It's something
we're definitely going to continue to do because it definitely
helps our guys."

Healthcare is provided in a variety of settings, from a person's home to outpatient clinics, to the hospital. While the settings and specific design elements may differ across the continuum of care, the objectives of safety, efficiency, satisfaction, and high quality care remain constant.

Antibiotic-resistant infections have become a major public health issue in the United States. In other countries, however, the problem doesn't appear as severe or as widespread. It's worth taking a look at what they're doing differently to see what we can learn from their efforts.
Hospital-acquired infections (HAI) and other easily transmittable diseases are a serious concern in most facilities today. Implementing some of the latest best practices in your physical environment can help to minimize their impact—and help you get the best outcomes from your efforts.
When exploring design options that can help to prevent HAI and keep other infectious diseases from spreading, here are three key factors to consider:

This suit of armor is sure not just to protect your body but also to intimidate your opponents, pairing its hardened leather pieces with that creepy Joker's grin.
Prince Armory constructed this villainous suit of armor, which is supposed to be functional. Here is the list of components:
Jester's Helmet with Joker Mask, Breastplate, Drama Face Pauldrons, Breastplate, Jester's War Skirt, Cuisses/Knees/Greaves, Articulated Jester Shoe Sabatons
It's only appropriate that the Dark Knight's foe gets a suit of armor. You can see more views of the armor, including close-ups of the individual pieces, at armorer Samuel Lee's deviantART gallery.
