At tho tint*' this case waa brought tho I'ompany claimed to make a ser%lc»- chargo of $1 jier meter plus consump¬ tion charges. The ground of the action is that tho service charge is a violation of section i!«6 of the tranaportatlon corporallona law which provides that no rental di¬ rectly oi Indirectly shall be charged by any gas comjiany for its meters. Wheth¬ er a aervice diarge violates thia provis¬ ion of the law la n mooted question, as tliere haa been no direct caso.

A ««'r\-lce charge is a flxx-d charge and applies to every meter, he holds.

Cleared man.
Sure. And I was never a troll.
Wait! Trolls use Math! Wat Da Hell!
More like pennies. If you get lucky.
Sure you have never trolled before. That makes perfect sense.
I am in IWA just not the thread.
And you don't troll? Right.....
Nah, it's nice to see the light. You should try it.
Hey man, clear your Inbox so I can send you my part of the promo.
Hey man, do you want to bring the pardy to JBW?
Very true...
One of my favorite X Matches of all time. It set up the lead into Joe vs. Styles vs. Daniels at Unbreakable and even though Petey lost, this is what I remember the most about the match.
And for the awesomeness that is the Canadian Destroyer, we have the following...

It's for people who just bought a PC with Windows 7 (I think in like the last month or two). They get the $14.99 upgrade.
If you bought a Windows 7 PC months ago you can still get the upgrade but it'll cost you $39.99.
So people are paying once for Windows 7, then the very cheapo price of $15 for 8 -- I did not misunderstand then.

Workshops offer Gathering attenders the opportunity to be immersed in a topic with other interested Friends. Attenders stay in the same workshop throughout the week, helping form a mini-community within the Gathering. Each workshop meets from 9:00-11:45 AM each weekday. Most workshops include worship or worship-sharing each day.

2015 Workshop Descriptions
Click on the workshop title to read a detailed description. Use the filter tools to display workshop by audience type (age group), or by keyword. More detailed descriptions will be posted by March.
We will explore the triple jewels of movement, meditation, and writing as a means of being present to ourselves. Through basic yoga poses, breathing, meditation, and writing, participants will experience their own creative integration of body, mind, and spirit. All participants will develop a practice to take home with them.
How often have you felt the Spirit alive in your meeting? How can we open to the Spirit's power to transform us and our meetings? With worship, exercises, readings, and stories we will engage with one another and consider how deep worship, strong community, and active witness overlap to build powerful meetings.
Jesus asked his disciples "Who do you say I am?" For centuries, Christians and non-Christians gave different answers. Is Jesus a prophet, an ethical teacher, a healer, an ordinary man, the only Son of God? Using the Bible and other sources we'll share our own responses and experiences of Jesus.
We will investigate Yogic teachings and practices, and suggest what they offer Quaker practice today. We will explore each of the eight yogic limbs, partly through written reflection and discussion, but primarily through an experiential engagement with yoga's concrete social, physical, and meditative practices.
In this workshop participants will engage in a variety of improvisational "games" including drumming, vocalization, and exploring sound on melodic instruments, in an attempt to improvise music together, to be heard expressing ourselves creatively, and to work together to create something vibrant and beautiful.
Do you feel despair or fear about the state of the world? This experiential workshop will touch into gratitude, grief, new ways of being with the state of the world, and empowering action! We will laugh, play, cry, and free ourselves of despair through ritual, worship sharing, and creative exercises.
We'll provide a safe environment for Friends to explore nontheism/atheism/agnosticism/etc. among Quakers. Friends of all theologies are welcome! Through interactive activities and discussions, participants explore different facets of spirituality, examine nontheist language, consider how we interact with peers with differing beliefs. Join us for discussions with like-minded Friends!
Experience the Quaker perspective on body balancing, juggling, slacklining, rock climbing, and more. We'll try challenging physical activities that clear mental distractions and promote the present-centeredness that helps us be aware of God's immediate presence in our lives. Come be vibrant in body and spirit!
High School Program participants will join experienced Junior Gathering leaders in creating a fun, safe, and Spirit-filled Junior Gathering environment for our youngest Gathering participants. Learn to lead, and use your talents to give back to our community! Early arrival by 8:30 am Sunday morning is mandatory.
Delve into various Quaker practices and processes vital to the High School community. Throughout the week we'll learn various aspects of clerking, nurturing, and discernment through discussions, activities, and practicing on issues relevant to the HS Program.

It's Lacroix, Darling. What to expect from a collaboration with Christian Lacroix (alias Xian Lax, derived from a phonetic spelling of his name) but a jewel-rich, garnet-red, gold-wrought work of art that says Swatch in the same breath as it says Lacroix? Ornate as a king's regalia, Xian Lax's Xmas (GZ140) presents a dial clasped in a pomegranate-red, translucent plastic body. The strap is elastic and assembled from cast brass segments. In place of hour and minute hands, a radiant, golden sun at the centre of the dial turns around 24 coloured crystals, indicating the preciousness of every hour and celebrating the ultimate timekeeper, the sun.

Exciting News! Sneak Peek at New EllieFunDay Blanket Designs
Sorry friends for being on radio silence these past few months. We've been super busy and we're working hard on some amazingly NEW beautiful baby blankets. It's been really exciting but stressful too. There are so many moving parts; I wish it all could be done overnight, but alas that's not quite how the world works.
We want to share some really awesome things on the horizon:
New Designs!
We'll also be unveiling some new blankie designs! We're really proud of this new line and they'll also feature the unique skills of the women we'll be partnering with. We're confident you'll love them and will have pre-ordering information out soon. In the mean time, like our Facebook page or contact us to be put on the email list. These are the best ways to get the most up-to-date info! Meanwhile here's a teaser from our photoshoot with these cuties!
New Partnerships! We'll be partnering with a cooperative just south of Bangalore committed to employing extremely marginalized women, some of whom are suffering from AIDS. We're really blessed to have the opportunity to empower and equip a community of women out of poverty.
New Stores! We're not opening a store (yet), but we'll be in select boutiques later this year! We're humbled by the very positive response to our new line and excited that you may be able to buy our blankets in a store near you. We're thrilled about these new retail partnerships and will share soon where you'll be able to find them.
Just a short update for now! We're so thankful to you, our friends, for partnering with us in so many ways. Drop us a line, we'd love to hear from you! In the meantime for us, it's back to work! Thanks and will update more soon!

Recently, GM's press-fleet reps asked us to get behind the wheel and experience the thrill of the substantially revised '08 Corvette. All we could say was, "430-plus horses in an entry-level Vette? Where do we sign up?"
Our Crystal Red Metallic Tintcoat coupe came to us equipped with the standard LS3 powerplant, advertising 436 horsepower and 424 lb-ft of torque. It featured new heads and a block similar to those found on the top-of-the-line LS7 (505 hp), but in a mass-production-friendly package. This engine was mated to the brand-new T6060 six-speed manual transmission, which permanently replaces the venerable T56 in all stick-shift Corvettes, including the Z06.
Our test car was equipped with the heavy-duty MZ6 variant of this trans, which is only installed in cars ordered with the Z51 performance package. It housed a unique gear set optimized for performance use; wider gears to increase torque-handling capability (to 428 lb-ft); a stronger, one-piece countershaft; a strengthened housing to minimize flex; and a double-cone reverse-gear synchronizer.
With the new transmission also came a revised shifter assembly, which delivered on its promise of shorter throws and a quicker gate response than last year's model. Chevy says this newfound slickness is attributable to a redesign of the shifter, revised gate-to-gate locations, and less 12 percent rail travel than the old unit. We found it a breeze to accelerate through the six forward gears; it was nearly impossible to miss a shift.
The Z51 option brought larger (13.4/13.0-inch), cross-drilled brake rotors; performance-tuned P245/40ZR18 and P285/35ZR19 Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar EMT tires; 30.7 and 25.2mm stabilizer bars; 86 N/mm and 135 N/mm-rate springs; passive shocks that offer increased damping over the stock units; and a 3.42 gear ratio. Allied with the potent LS3 engine, the Z51 gear helped our test Corvette feel as close to a Z06 as its 50-something price tag would allow.
We were also pleased with the 3LT Preferred Equipment Group, which returns this year with an upgraded six-disc CD changer, a Bose premium seven speaker system, heads-up display, a power telescoping wheel, heated seats, a memory package, a universal home remote, and a host of other luxuries.
Also new in '08 (and included on our test car) is a polycarbonate version of the optional transparent roof panel, replacing the glass roof used on previous models. In addition to offering a weight savings over its predecessor, the new top is designed to be virtually unbreakable under typical-use conditions. On the downside, it had a much cheaper feel than the old glass unit.
As you may have deduced from the output figures cited earlier, our test car was equipped with the new-for-'08 dual-mode performance exhaust system. According to Chevrolet, this 2.5-inch exhaust is similar in design and function to the 3.0-inch system used on the Z06. It features vacuum-actuated outlet valves that remain shut to control engine noise during low-load operation, then pivot open for maximum performance during high-load operation.
Our test of the '08 Corvette in a variety of conditions yielded a significant thumbs-up as compared with the '07 model. We were especially pleased with the LS3 and the performance it produces for a standard engine. We were equally impressed with the handling characteristics of the Z51 suspension, which makes the car fully track-capable without any tinkering. At a base price of $45,170 ($56,185 as tested), the '08 Corvette continues the marque's longstanding tradition of delivering world-class performance in a relatively affordable package.

County officials confirmed the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks has vacated its Oktibbeha County Lake Campground facilities after the agency declined to renew its 16th section land lease.
It is unclear at this point who will maintain the campground's facilities as property control is transitioned back to the Oktibbeha County School District. MDWFP State Lake Coordinator David Berry said the transition will end Monday.
The most recent county lake lease was executed in 1986 and expired last year. The land's 407 acres earned a $2,500 annual payment.
Officials say MDWFP declined to renew its lease after a recent reappraisal considerably boosted the property's value. Rent for 16th section leases is set at fair market value, and appraisals and adjustments must be made at least every 10 years, per the Mississippi Secretary of State's Office.
County Superintendent of Education James Covington said he met with MDWFP and Secretary of State officials in March to discuss the reappraised value of the 16th section land. Wildlife officials later declined to renew the lease, he said. The land's approximate reappraised value was unavailable at press time.
Covington said the school board recently began advertising the property for potential lessees. He could not comment on any early interest in the property.
County Administrator Don Posey said the board of supervisors has not had any formal communications with MDWFP over the matter. A meeting is scheduled today, he said, in Jackson with state 16th section land officials.
The Oktibbeha County Lake Campground area features the Lt. Gov. Amy Tuck Multi-Purpose Building, a MDWFP permit office, tent camping sites, boat ramps, and picnic areas.

One of the most influential and acclaimed artists to have emerged from Asia in the late twentieth century, Takashi Murakami (b. Tokyo 1962) blends fine art and mass culture in order to blur boundaries between cultural genres and dissolve the hierarchies into which they are often organized. Observing in the history of Japanese art a lack of distinction between "high" and "low," especially as compared to that of the West, Murakami theorized an aesthetic of "Superflat," which he ascribes to traditional Japanese painting as well as to contemporary anime (animation), manga (comic books), and his own work. He uses Superflat to allude not only to the plane that high and low culture share in Japan, but also to the prevalence of two-dimensionality throughout a range of Japanese artistic disciplines, where perspective is distorted or compressed to achieve a flat overall pattern of colors and shapes. Murakami asserts flatness as having already existed in the past and continuing to exist—now also a manifestation of what he regards as Japan's "infantile capitalist condition in the postwar era."
Murakami was formally trained in nihonga painting, a style focused on traditional Japanese techniques and subject matter, and he continues to draw on early sources ranging from Buddhist imagery, twelfth-century picture scrolls, Zen painting, and eighteenth-century Edo period compositional techniques to render his own brand of pop-culture imagery. His oeuvre as a whole conveys a magical realm in which characters including Cosmos, Kaikai, Kiki, Inochi, Oval, Mr. Pointy, and his alter ego, DOB, appear in numerous contexts and iterations, lending a narrative quality to his work.
Like many pop artists before him, Murakami elevates cartoon figures and corporate logos by positioning them in the realm of fine art. The artist goes further, however, by recasting his fine-art creations as cheap mass-produced goods such as stickers, key chains, cell-phone holders, and stuffed animals. As CEO of his own company, Kaikai Kiki Co., Ltd., he is involved at all levels of production, from paintings to plastic figures. The concept of copyright itself holds an exalted position within Murakami's practice, rooted in the acknowledgment of his work as simultaneously interweaving deeply personal expression, high art, mass culture, and commerce.

Vt. man charged for role in 2008 Chester killingBy ERIC FRANCIS
CORRESPONDENT | August 01,2013ERIC FRANCIS PHOTO
Attorney Mark Furlan and Timothy Arbuckle of Chester wait their turn in court Wednesday where Arbuckle was charged with kicking a dying man on a ball field in 2008.WHITE RIVER JUNCTION — The case of a Massachusetts man killed at a Chester ball field in August 2008 came back to court Wednesday when one of the participants in the fatal melee was brought in to face a new charge.
Timothy Arbuckle, 32, a lifelong resident of the Chester–Springfield area who has been serving time in a New Hampshire prison for unrelated convictions, pleaded innocent to aiding in the commission of a felony for his alleged role in the death of 33-year-old Vinny Tamburello.
Tamburello had been engaged in a back-and-forth feud with some local men, including Arbuckle, for several days when he showed up at MacKenzie Field for what was described as a pre-arranged invitation to fight that evening five years ago, police said.
In front of a large crowd of onlookers who were just finishing up a softball game, Tamburello charged down a hillside waving a splitting maul over his head and he began to bash the windows out of a pickup, police said.
Within moments Kyle Bolaski of Springfield pulled a rifle from the truck and shot Tamburello in the leg at close range as the latter raised the maul over his head, police said. Tamburello limped away and Bolaski fired a second, ultimately fatal, shot into his lower torso, police said.
Arbuckle walked up to the dying man and kicked him several times, a witness said in court records.
Five men, including Bolaski and Arbuckle, and a woman were in the group allegedly waiting for Tamburello.
Then-State's Attorney Robert Sand convened a grand jury to consider the claims of self-defense made by the men who said Tamburello charged at them. The grand jury refused to return an indictment against Bolaksi.
After a campaign of protest was raised by Tamburello's family, Sand brought in another prosecutor, John Lavoie, who ultimately filed charges against Bolaski, who was convicting of second-degree murder two years ago.
During Wednesday's arraignment, Lavoie was back in White River Junction criminal court, where he told Judge Robert Gerety that even though the original charge against Arbuckle had been a misdemeanor simple assault, he thought the upgrade to a felony was appropriate.
"Facts were developed during the (Bolaski) trial that solidified the accomplice theory against Mr. Arbuckle," Lavoie told the judge. "There were certain dramatic changes in his testimony at the trial that made him not a helpful witness to the state."
Moments later, Arbuckle's defense attorney, Mark Furlan, seized on Lavoie's comments and told Judge Gerety that the prosecutor "didn't like the way (Arbuckle) testified at the trial, so he changes it to a felony."
Furlan added, "It's vindictive prosecution and it's inappropriate, but there is nothing we can do about it today."
Gerety said that while he did not want to get into the merits of the case Wednesday, the more serious charge justified setting bail at $20,000 to ensure Arbuckle returned to court.
Furlan said that if Arbuckle is able to post bail he will live with a relative in Chester while his case is pending.MORE IN Southern VermontBENNINGTON — Ask author and Bennington College graduate Charlotte Silver if the title of...

OK the title of this thread has been gnawing at me since it first appeared. "The Libyan Embassy in Benghazi." And now it's gone some 26 pages without correction. Marvin, there is no Libyan Embassy in Benghazi...It was a US Consulate Office. It was attacked. No doubt. Americans were killled, no doubt.
What is doubtful here is the grasp of reality.... and no one but the staff on the ground at that moment can second guess what and how there should be a response. To politicize the deaths of the Ambassador and the contractors paid to provide security is shameful. JD

Tributes paid to former Barrow publican
Last updated at 08:32, Friday, 07 December 2012
TRIBUTES have been paid to a loving family man and well-known former publican. Jimmy Jones, landlord of the Strawberry in Barrow from 1977 to 1982, died in the early hours of November 28 following a battle with ongoing heart problems.
The 76-year-old, who had a heart bypass 26 years ago, had been admitted to Furness General Hospital on November 26.The "very charming man", who was born in Barrow in 1936, was father to Michael and Christine.
He was grandfather to eight and had 12 great-grandchildren. Mr Jones, of Glenridding Drive, Barrow, managed a number of Furness pubs during his lifetime, including the Lancastrian in Ulverston, and the Vickerstown Institute on Walney, alongside his late wife Aileen.
His partner, Margaret Williams, who first met Mr Jones as a teenager in the 1940s, remembers him fondly as "a very sociable man". Mrs Williams, who had been with Mr Jones for seven years, said he became ill at Easter.
However, she added: "He kept going and kept fighting."The 77-year-old described how Mr Jones was famous for his sense of humour. She said: "He used to say to the boys in the pub: 'Did you ever pay me for that pint?' That was his joke. He was a very happy man. He was quite a joker. He had a lot of spirit."
His daughter, Christine Park, described her father as a loving and caring man. Mrs Park said at Christmas he always put up a light display on his bungalow and placed a bucket outside to collect money for local charities.
When his family reminisced about their favourite times they had spent with him, they struggled to choose just one and instead said they were all moments they treasured.His daughter said she particularly likes to remember the times she spent abroad with Mr Jones in the last few years.
Mrs Park said: "We have had four cruises in the last four years with him." During the family holidays, Mrs Park and her husband, Colin, travelled with Mr Jones and Mrs Williams around the Mediterranean and the Greek islands. The mother-of-three, 54, added: "Everybody that met him loved him. There is only one Jimmy Jones."

19th C. Rococo Armoire
Curvilinear lines and opulent ornamentation were hallmarks of 19th-century Rococo furniture. Our armoire was inspired by a pair of antique, carved-wood doors from this period and replicates the original's molded cornice, elaborate embellishment and cast-metal crémone bolt in exacting detail.
- Handcrafted of kiln-dried hardwood with fine veneers using tongue-and-groove joinery
- Detailed with ornate carvings
- Topped with a grand molded cornice; rests on an unadorned plinth base

UP THIS SUMMER!Feed the Kid Meals Program Kicks off
June 17
Wauwatosa, WI (April 26, 2013) Feed the Kids will kick off
its summer meal program on Monday, June 17 at Red Arrow Park in downtown
Milwaukee. Community and business leaders will volunteer to prepare lunch
meals for area children for one hour.
"I use to be one of those kids," shares LeRoy Butler Green Bay
Packer Hall of Famer and Salvation Army 2013 Red Kettle Honorary Chair and
ambassador. Butler grew up in the projects of Jacksonville, FL., with his
mother and siblings.
"41% of children in Milwaukee are hungry and living in poverty. We
served 116,686 meals through our Feed the Kids Summer meals program last year.
We expect that number to increase this summer," said Major Roger Ross,
Salvation Army Milwaukee County Commander.
Since 1990 The Salvation Army in Milwaukee County has provided nutritious
meals to hungry children who would otherwise go without through its Feed the
Kids summer meal program. Now in its 23rd year, Feed the Kids is the only
mobile summer meal program of its kind in Milwaukee. The program is designed to
meet the needs of children in Milwaukee's poorest neighborhoods and
operates in collaboration with Hunger Task Force, Milwaukee Public School
District, West Allis/West Milwaukee School District, Milwaukee Center for
Independence, Boys & Girls Clubs, Social Development Commission and
Heartlove Place. For more information regarding meal sites and times, call 211
or go to www.impactinc.org.
About The Salvation ArmyThe Salvation Army, an
evangelical part of the universal Christian church,
has been supporting those in need in His name without discrimination since
1865. Nearly 33 million Americans receive assistance from The Salvation Army
each year through the broadest array of social services that range from
providing food for the hungry, relief for disaster victims, assistance for the
disabled, outreach to the elderly and ill, clothing and shelter to the homeless
and opportunities for underprivileged children. Nationally, approximately 84
cents of every dollar raised is used to support those services in nearly 9,000
communities nationwide. For more information, go to www.SAmilwaukee.org.

First published in 1869, Lorna Doone is the story of John Ridd, a farmer who finds love amid the religious and social turmoil of seventeenth-century England. He is just a boy when his father is slain by the Doones, a lawless clan inhabiting wild Exmoor on the border of Somerset and Devon. Seized by curiosity and a sense of adventure, he makes his way to the valley of the Doones, where he is discovered by the beautiful Lorna. In time their childish fantasies blossom into mature love—a bond that will inspire John to rescue his beloved from the ravages of a stormy winter, rekindling a conflict with his archrival, Carver Doone, that climaxes in heartrending violence. Beloved for its portrait of star-crossed lovers and its surpassing descriptions of the English countryside, Lorna Doone is R. D. Blackmore's enduring masterpiece.
First time in Penguin Classics
Since its publication in 1869, Lorna Doone has never been out of print
Features explanatory notes, a list of suggestions for further reading, a dictionary of Dorset dialect, and a map of Doone Valley

People are extending the comfort, convenience and pleasure of their homes into the great outdoors, and the result is the popular trend called the "outdoor room." Yards, gardens, decks, patios, porches, sunrooms, gazebos, courtyards, balconies, terraces and even rooftops are being transformed in this fashion.
"The line between the house and the outdoor space continues to disintegrate," said Julie D. Taylor, author of Outdoor Rooms. "Many designers are using the same, or similar, materials both on the interior and exterior to extend the house to the outdoors. It breaks down the barrier and gives a feeling of a larger house."
According to Dominick Tringali, CEO of Dominick Tringali Architects, part of the reason homeowners are paying more attention to their outdoor rooms is because of another trend: downsizing. Today, many homeowners are seeking quality (over quantity) of square footage, making better use of the space they do have, and looking to connect the inside and outside areas. "People are downsizing homes, but they're making the house more usable," said Tringali.
The possibilities for outdoor rooms are almost limitless – from large and spacious to small and intimate; from a simple patio-sized eating and grilling area to a grand multilevel deck complete with cocktail bar, fountain, spa and pool. No matter the size, scale or budget, the goal in creating an outdoor space should be "to create a retreat that nurtures your personal lifestyle," said Anne Dickhoff, author of Outdoor Rooms II. "Don't be led by the latest trends; create a space that reflects your individual taste and accommodates your favorite activities."
Architect Marc Whitman agrees. "I think color, materials, the way things are laid out … all those things are important in creating a space that you want to go out to and be a part of," said Whitman. "You want to really focus on what the feeling is overall and pick the colors and the materials that are going to create that feeling."
In an outdoor room, the "walls," can be an extension of the home's exterior walls or formed by trees, shrubs, hedges, planters, fences, privacy screens or lattice panels. Outdoor "flooring" can be as simple as grass, pebbles or stepping-stones, or as elaborate as wooden decking or tiles installed on a concrete pad. Ceilings may be outlined by tree limbs, vines, pergolas, arbors, retractable awnings or permanent roof structures.
When it comes to outfitting the outdoor space, design experts recommend blending a variety of natural materials to enhance what Mother Nature has already provided. "There's an inherent beauty in wood, in metal, in stone, and the imperfections create their own beauty. And by putting many of these together, you get a juxtaposition of textures and colors, and this creates, so to speak, a symphony," said Lori Naritoku, architect and designer, whose rooftop garden in Laguna Beach, Calif., contains a metal and cloth gazebo.
Plants add shade, texture and a sweet scent to a space. Besides favorite flowers, try fragrant plants like dwarf citrus trees or herbs. Visually, it's important to consider the container as well as the plant; for a natural look, choose clay or stone or lighter resin designed to look like stone, and add splashes of color with painted pottery.
Elements that stimulate the senses are also natural components of an outdoor retreat. Some examples include fireplaces, fire pits and chimeras; ponds, waterfalls, fountains and wind chimes; outdoor lighting, hanging lanterns and candles; and fluffy pillows, soft throws and nubby rugs.
