Vase not pink but still brought smile
By Raji

The vase was not pink and the bouquet was much smaller than the photo. The sisal thing was much bigger. However, the service of Zoe's was friendly and cheerful and made my sister very happy to have someone think of her with flowers.

I ordered flowers for my wife for our anniversary. Despite the fact that I upgraded to large I was disappointed with the amount of flowers, although the flowers were beautiful. Also the glass vase was so thin that it broke when she lifted it to throw the flowers out.
Flowers lovely, but bouquet small
By Deborah

Not as picture
By LaidBack
I was disappointed with this arrangement that I sent for a birthday gift when I saw it. Quite small and I didn't see the variety of flowers in the picture, mine was mostly made up of yellow spray chrysanthemums. Nice vase though.
Very disappointed
By New grandparent
I ordered a large vibrant summer boquet due to the choice and colour of flowers.What was delivered was very disappointing - mostly cheap chrysanthemums and nowhere near as many flowers as I expected, with very few colours. The boquet was presented well but very small and not good value for money. Such a shame

Woman fatally shot in road rage incidentSeptember 26,2013The Associated Press
ST. ALBANS - Police in St. Albans, Vt., say a man who ran a red light fatally shot the female driver of a car he nearly struck after the two got into an argument.
Police said they arrested 30-year-old Matthew Webster of Swanton on suspicion of murder a short time after the shooting at about 5:40 p.m. Wednesday and seized a gun from him.
"We believe this was a case of road rage that went awry and turned violent," Lt. Ron Hoague with the St. Albans Police Department said.
After the red light was run at North Main and Lower Newton streets, police said the driver of the car that was nearly struck, 31-year-old Anna Alger of Highgate, followed Webster's vehicle and confronted him. Police said Webster is accused of taking out the gun and shooting her multiple times. They said the two didn't know each other.
Alger was taken to Northwest Medical Center, where she died.
Police also said Webster's wife had been following her husband in another car and witnessed part of the incident.
Webster was expected to be in court Thursday morning. It wasn't immediately known if he had a lawyer.MORE IN This Just InSACRAMENTO, Calif. Full StoryWASHINGTON Congress ran full-tilt into election-year gridlock over immigration Thursday and... Full Story

Westfield, Mass. -- December 1, 2012 -- Led by Alex Berthiaume's 20 points, the Springfield College men's basketball team took a 19-point second half lead and then held on to upset Amherst College, the nation's #6-ranked team, 70-64 in the Pioneer Valley Classic tonight at Westfield State. With the win, Springfield ups its record to 5-1.
Amherst suffers its first loss and is now 5-1. It was also only the second loss for Amherst in 24 Pioneer Valley Classic games and marks the first time that Springfield bested the Lord Jeffs since 1981.
Berthiaume, a senior guard from Springfield, Mass., scored a team-high 20 points, including two free throws with four seconds remaining, to clinch the victory for the Pride. He also was credited with nine rebounds and three steals.
Also scoring in double figures for SC were senior forward Pat Rossi (Rock Tavern, N.Y.) with 14 points, and sophomore guard Josh Altman (Rockport, Mass.) with 12. Junior forward Robbie Burke (Cheshire, Mass.) chipped in with nine points and a team-high 11 rebounds.
Springfield won this game with its defensive play, holding the Lord Jeffs to a .350 shooting percentage. SC also outrebounded Amherst, 46-37, grabbing 14 offensive boards. SC also produced 19 turnovers, while committing only 14 of its own.
After a back-and-forth first half, SC grabbed a 33-28 lead at the intermission. SC was down by as many as two points on four different occasions in that stanza.
In the second half, the Pride never trailed, exploding in the first five-and-a-half minutes by outscoring Amherst, 20-6, to take a 53-34 lead. When Rossi made a free throw with 14:27 remaining, SC led by 19 points.
But led by David Kaleema (game-high 22 points), Aaron Toomey (14 points), and Willy Workman (12 points), Amherst would cut the margin to five (59-54) in the next seven minutes to make it a game once again.
Amherst would close the gap to just three points (67-64) with 1:20 remaining on two free throws by Peter Kaasila.
Neither team scored again until junior Sean Martin (Rindge, N.H.) tallied a free throw with 17 seconds left, making it a two-score contest. Berthiaume then iced it with his free throws with just four seconds left.
Springfield's next two games will also come against New England Small College Athletic Conference teams, both at home. SC will host Trinity on Thursday (Dec. 6) (its home opener), at 7 pm, then Williams on Saturday (Dec. 8) at 1 pm.

The Indiana Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatricians (INAAP) is participating in a day-long social media campaign on July 31 to increase awareness about the dangers of leaving children unattended in cars. The Campaign is called "Where's Baby? Look Before You Lock."
August generally brings Indiana's highest temperatures and heatstroke is the leading cause of non-crash, vehicle related deaths for children under the age of 14, with national statistics showing at least 33 fatalities reported in 2011 alone. Safe Kids Worldwide and the National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) will join together to promote National Heatstroke Prevention Day as part of the campaign.
"There is such a great need to educate the public about the dangers of leaving children unattended in hot vehicles — even for just a few minutes," INAAP President Carolyn Lytle said in a news release. "Making a habit of stopping to look into the back of the car before locking the doors is a good way to make sure children are not accidentally left in a vehicle.
"Nationally, there have already been 24 deaths this summer. Every one of these tragedies is completely preventable," Lytle added. "The campaign seeks to raise awareness about the effects of leaving children in cars by blanketing the nation with Tweets and Facebook posts every hour on the hour from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m."
NHTSA's "Where's Baby? Look Before You Lock" campaign urges parents and caregivers to take important precautions to prevent inadvertent incidents from occurring, including:
• Never leave a child unattended in a vehicle — even if the windows are partially open or the engine is running and the air conditioning is on;
• Make a habit of looking in the vehicle — front and back — before locking the door and walking away;
• Ask the childcare provider to call you if the child does not show up for care as expected;
• Do things that serve as a reminder a child is in the vehicle, such as placing a purse or briefcase in the back seat to ensure no child is accidentally left in the vehicle, writing a note or using a stuffed animal placed in the driver's view to indicate a child is in the car seat;
• Teach children a vehicle is not a play area and store keys out of a child's reach.
INAAP urges community members who see a child alone in a hot vehicle to immediately call 911 or the local emergency number. If the child is in distress due to heat they should be removed from the vehicle as quickly as possible and rapidly cooled.

The network said Tuesday that its 2013 lineup also will include a new comedy set in the White House, and a dating series produced by former "Desperate Housewives" star Eva Longoria.
"Community," which saw its return delayed this season, will begin airing Feb. 7. The sitcom "1600 Penn," starring Bill Pullman, Jenna Elfman and Josh Gad as the first family, will debut Jan. 10.
NBC is billing Longoria's "Ready for Love" as an "innovative and dramatic" relationship show. It will debut March 31.

EASTON -- Despite a defensive effort in which the Bison forced four turnovers, Bucknell's offense could do little to capitalize off them.
Lafayette's Ross Scheuerman had 20 rushes for 188 yards while quarterback Andrew Dzurik threw for 235 on 22 completions as the Leopards' offense accumulated 428 yards to Bucknell's 80 in a 31-7 win on Saturday at Fisher Stadium.
It was the first Patriot League game of the season.
Bucknell's Matthew Steinbeck had two interceptions while Clayton Ewell recorded his first interception. The Bison also forced a dropped punt in the first half.
Freshman RJ Nitti got his first start at quarterback for Bucknell (1-3, 0-1 PL) in place of injured senior Brandon Wesley and completed 14 of 32 passes for 64 yards.
Lafayette scored three touchdowns in the first 20 minutes to take a 21-0 lead. The first score came when the Leopards capitalized on a Nitti fumble that gave them the ball at the two-yard line. One play later Scheuerman scored.
Lafayette went up 14-0 with 5:18 left in the first quarter when Dzurik completed a two-yard pass to Brandon Hall. Dzurik capped a six-play drive with a 10-yard touchdown pass to Morgan Donohue with 11:44 left in the second quarter to make it 21-0.
Bucknell cut into Lafayette's lead late in the first half when it capitalized on Crawford's dropped punt.
Crawford called for a fair catch and let the ball slip between his hands. Travis Friend recovered the ball at the Lafayette 23.
A pass interference call against Lafayette moved the Bison to a first-and-goal from the 10.
On a third-and-goal from the 12, Nitti dropped back and found a diving Charles Thompson along the back edge of the end zone. A horizontal Thompson acrobatically got a foot down to record his first career touchdown and Nitti's first career touchdown pass with 4:48 left in the first half.

"I've tried several cigars in the Kristoff series, but the Corojo Limitada is without a doubt my absolute favorite. And it's not just my favorite Kristoff cigar... the Kristoff Corojo is one of my absolute favorite smokes. A wonderful cigar, the Corojo Limitada is rich with flavor, but not in an overly complex manner. It's a smooth, enjoyable smoke. Great flavor, but not an unnecessarily heavy cigar. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend this to ALL cigar smokers whether you've ever tried a Kristoff or not. Go ahead and buy a whole box; you won't regret it."
"This is one of my all time favorite cigars. Every time I go to the local sports bar to watch a MMA fight, I make sure I have at least one of these with me. If the price were to be cut by 50%, it is probably the only cigar I would ever purchase. Well, maybe not. There are a few others I really like, but this one is near, if not on the top, of my list."

If the Yankees have any injuries they will be in huge trouble.
they do have depth just that fans seem to not know about it
the only part the yankees have really no depth if something were to happen is at catcher and CF but i wouldnt get all that worried since our 3 OF can play CF and we have multiple backup catcher options only that they offer little offense
Perfect fit for Sourpuss
Acknowledging it sounds crazy and doesn't really think it's going to happen, Adam Kilgore of the Washington Post urges the Nationals to sign free agent closer Rafael Soriano. Kilgore sees agent Scott Boras convincing owner Ted Lerner the franchise has a finite window of competing for titles and Soriano is the final, missing piece.

I am the grandson of George H. Earls who was born in Bark Camp in Whitley County in 1857. His father, Thomas Earls, settled there in 1812. My father, Rev. Maynard 0. Earls, was raised in Whitley County. The town of Bark Camp Mills disappeared during the Great Depression. I'd like to revive its memory. I am also a published author, historian and professor at Wilmington College in Ohio.
I am currently researching the history of Bark Camp and its people. I hope some of the folks in Whitley County and the surrounding area may be able to help me. I am interested in gathering any stories, family histories and early pictures from that area. All original materials will be copied and returned to the owners.
I would also like to locate the two old cemeteries that served the community. I was last there 40 years ago and have been informed that their location has been lost to time.
If any of your readers can assist me, they can email me at firstname.lastname@example.com or write to me at 120 Hale St, Wilmington, OH 45177.
I will be grateful for any assistance.

Antique Graphics Wednesday - Clock Faces
4 comments:
I was just looking at clock faces the other day. The ones with ROMAN NUMERALS; drive me crazy.ReplyDelete
I like Roman numeral clocks...but when you get to 4-8 I like the numbers to be read the RIGHT WAY 'ROUND!
I don't like seeing an upside down Roman numeral 4 (IV)...I like them upright.
I almost OCD about it!
These look cool and the off kilter one ...would make me crazy. The clock in my bathroom was marked down because the face was crooked. I brought it home and tweaked it until it was right. I got it at Dollar General...so I only paid $2 bucks for it.
Your's are free!! Thanks! Pat
Oh ! They are lovely ! I liked the last one that it seems very old ! Can I use for another makeover ? I hope that it will be fine at my top table ! I will try it and I will see you !ReplyDelete
Love these Angie. Thanks for sharing them with us!ReplyDelete

In the Eastern side of the Public Lobby visitors can see
a stained-glass window designed by the French artist Marc
Chagall. It was a gift from United Nations staff members as
well as Marc Chagall himself, presented in 1964 as a memorial
to Dag Hammarskjold, the second Secretary-General of the UN,
and fifteen other people who died with him in a plane crash
in 1961.
The memorial, which is about 15 feet wide and 12 feet high,
contains several symbols of peace and love, such as the young
child in the center being kissed by an angelic face which
emerges from a mass of flowers. On the left, below and above
motherhood and the people who are struggling for peace are
depicted. Musical symbols in the panel evoke thoughts of Beethoven's
Ninth Symphony, which was a favourite of Mr. Hammarskjold's.

On Monday, Gov. Andrew Cuomo waded into the stop-and-frisk debate—the practice where police officers may stop anyone on the street they deem suspicious for questioning and a search—by during such stops.
The practice of stop-and-frisk had long been controversial, but the NYPD swears that the searches have been keeping our streets safer.
But in May, NAACP President Benjamin Todd Jealous, 1199 SEIU President George Gresham and Rev. Al Sharpton of the National Action Network joined other civil rights leaders, faith leaders and elected officials in Foley Square to , arguing that blacks and Latinos are nine times as likely as whites to be stopped.
Days later, cleared the way for class action lawsuits against the NYPD by people who believe they were wrongfully stopped and searched, based their race or background.
Politicians like , and even have called on the city and the state to crack down on race-based stop-and-frisks, saying that the practice creates distrust between the community and police.
So do you think Cuomo's decision will help turn the tide on street questioning? Or could the situation potentially worsen, with cops doubling the stops they make in order to fulfill arrest quotas now that marijuana will be off the table in most cases? Vote in the poll below, and let us know your thoughts in the comments.

NORMAN — County officials included detention payroll in the 2012-2013 budget Tuesday morning during a monthly Cleveland County Budget Board meeting.
Sheriff Joe Lester said the jail has been threatened with fines for being "overcrowded" due to lack of staff. Current detention staff is sufficient for two pods.
However, the jail had to open a third pod to house the growing number of inmates.
As of Tuesday morning, 410 inmates were in the F. DeWayne Beggs Detention Center. Only 350 inmates are supposed to be in the jail without the third pod open.
Part of the problem, Lester said, is the Department of Corrections (DOC) cannot pick up all of their inmates during their monthly transfers because they do not have room for them.
Currently, 75 to 80 inmates are in the county's jail waiting to be transported by the DOC.
The DOC pays the county $27 per day to house their inmates, but Sheriff Lester said that's not enough money to hire more staff. The cost for utilities and food is taken care of, it's just a matter of manpower for the third pod.
The budget board approved an amount of $556,823 for the jail's detention payroll. Lester said for 12 months, the cost for staffing would be $739,110, so the budgeted money will be more than enough to finish the fiscal year. Extra money would go back into the county's budget.
The county's final budget numbers for September was $30,420,085, which was an increase of $1.2 million, County Commissioner Rod Cleveland said.
"We actually did a very good job of not spending and turning it back in. So we turned back in more money than what we had all anticipated and what we all looked at," Cleveland said.
With the increased budget, the board approved to fully fund the county's audit, which was around $967,000. The county originally planned to budget $275,000, but because of a $1.2 million increase, they tacked on an additional $692,000 to fully fund it.

Pro Football Weekly asked Vikings play-by-play announcer Paul Allen three questions in the way of the Randy Moss mess.
PFW: You are hearing directly from the fans after the waiving of Randy Moss. Who are people most upset at?
Allen: Initially, people were more frustrated with the head coach, Brad Childress, than they had been before. But as stuff from behind the scenes came out on Randy Moss — yelling at a catering service, blatantly quitting on what should have been a touchdown against New England and refusing to fly back with the team from Providence, Rhode Island — the opinions are beginning to change.
PFW: Can the Vikings rally around all this in a weird way and somehow make a run?
Allen: They're going to have no choice. We all know that Brad Childress is not the most popular coach in the history of this fan base. A few prominent players told me this week: The last thing they wanted to see (heading) into the Arizona game was the head coach fired because they could just not absorb another major distraction during the season where we've had major distractions. So, they have to win the Arizona game; I think they have to win five to seven in a row to become relevant again. And it has to start this weekend.
PFW: Do the expectations for Sidney Rice contributing get unfairly ratcheted up now?
Allen: Well, I think that's an excellent way to look at it because I felt part of jettisoning Randy Moss was that they think Sidney Rice is closer than the media or the public knows. So I am not going to make a prediction on when Sidney is going to play, but it should be anytime soon. He's practicing (now), and with what he brought to this offense last year … he brought the double-coverage threat that Moss was bringing, except (Rice) also brought the splash plays 40 yards or more down the field. Last year, Brett (Favre) had 13 completions of 40 yards or more; this year he has none, and we had Randy for almost half the season. So even with Randy, granted things opened up for Percy Harvin and Adrian Peterson. But there's a reason we still weren't closing things down the field. The hope is with Sidney coming back and without a bona fide locker-room distraction, then maybe they'll start getting more explosive in the passing game and maybe it will come in at just the perfect time. Sidney is not going to play this weekend, (but) we have to beat the Arizona Cardinals this weekend, no ifs, ands or buts.

has been cobbling shoes for close to two decades in Carroll Gardens, but owner Michael Davidov may be forced to move out of the neighborhood due to a huge rent increase on his shop, says Pardon Me For Asking.
The building that Davidov's shop residents in, 319 Smith Street, recently sold for $1.2 million, says the blog, and the new landlord has doubled the shoe repair shop's rent from $2,700 to $5,400.
Davidov's lease is up in November, and he is currently looking for a smaller space in the neighborhood, though he is not confident that he can stay, says the blog.
In addition to cobbler services, Michael's also does jacket and watch repair, as well as shoe shines. The shop also carries some retail items, like handbags, socks, shoelaces and insoles.

QUESTION: I am trying to sell my home but am not getting any showings. I'm thinking about allowing a buyer to finance it through me. Is this a good idea?
-- Suzanne
ANSWER: It certainly can be, depending on your situation. If you own the property free and clear of any mortgage loans, financing the transaction for the buyer yourself has its advantages. But you'll need to take precautions to protect your interests. This sort of arrangement can help attract a deeper pool of prospective buyers who have temporary financial issues. You can finance the property for your buyer at an interest rate much higher than any bank will pay you for storing your money.
I recommend that you not finance more than 90 percent of the value of the house and that you charge an interest rate a couple of percentage points higher than what the banks will -- 6 percent to 8 percent, for example. Like any other lender, you should do your basic due diligence, such as requiring a loan application, reviewing the buyer's credit and getting a reasonable down payment. The main risk in offering seller financing is that you may have to file for foreclosure. So you should have an attorney prepare the promissory note and mortgage for you and have the closing company issue title insurance on your new loan.
Having said all that, I suggest you carefully analyze why your house is not getting any showings. It could simply be that you're asking for too much money or the listing itself is poorly worded.

Perhaps the figures could have operated better under a scoring system like IJS. The figures had a distorting effect on results scored under factored placements and ordinals. One bad ordinal factored in and you were dead in the water. The figures had another undesirable way of influencing results. With the more subjective 6.0 majority panel system, the order in which you skated in the SP & FS was somewhat more important than it is under under IJS. Figures placements determined what group you skated in for the SP (and thus indirectly the FS). This gave distorted influence to figures ordinals (even when they were reduced to only 30% or 20%). A skater under 6.0 might win the SP and not be high enough overall to skate in the final flight. This typically appeared to influence how high the judges were willing to rank someone in the FS (the old cliche about leaving room under 6.0 for later skaters seemed to apply in those days). So the case could be made that under a different judging system like IJS figures as 20% could have been been less problematic.
As Maximillian points out, the reason figures could never have survived is that they were incompatible with television and ticket sales, and the sport was constantly evolving into an entertainment business. This is perhaps supported by the eventual dumping of the compulsory dances. Like figures, they made for weak television and sales, and thus were not self-funding.
Another, perhaps deadly factor, was the money required to pay for ice time to practice figures. In countries with limited facilities, training figures was more cost prohibitive.
I think one reason why few shed tears for the end of compulsory figures (besides that they weren't fun to watch and skaters hated practicing them) was that audiences felt they could scrutinize every ordinal in the SP and FS. They could engage with the free skate judging. Audiences could not do this with compulsory figures. Now under IJS, things have changed so much that viewers might object less to being told by experts whose figures are better without themselves, as knowledgeable observers, knowing why. A good amount of scoring by the technical panel is either a bore or a slight mystery to even informed audiences today. It has to be revealed in slow motion. So I believe figures might be tolerated better under IJS than they were in the heyday of skating's Western popularity under 6.0.
Alas, this is not a realistic what if. Figures could not have survived without some unique will on the part of the skating community. There were no incentives to hold them in an increasingly globalized and business-oriented sport.
