Welcome to a safe environment for receiving support from other survivors of ... more

My Communities
My Discussions
My Email Digests
I'll start with something simple: Now that spring should be here or is here for some of us, does anyone have a favorite flower and why?
It's hard for me to choose only one because I like flowers for different reasons, so I will list a few:
Pansies - because of their colors, they are pretty and look delicate but tough because they can get through the winter still looking pretty, and because it was my grandmother's favorite flower.
Gardenia - Grew up with them and love the smell.
Daisies - They really do seem like cheery sorts and last a good long time in a vase inside.
I love irises too. They are my mom's favorite flower and we used to have a garden full of them when I was growing up. Do they really smell like a lemon cookie SK?? Hmm... I guess I never put the two of them together. LOL
Sunflowers because they are so big and bright. I remember when my parent's took me to Wyoming one year to visit family, there were fields of sunflowers. Just acres and acres of them! I loved it.
By the way Misty pansies are one of my mom's favorites too. We always had them planted in pots around the house. Did you know that you can eat the petals off of pansies? A woman who worked at a plant nursery for years told me that when I was young and I had to try it just to see. LOL
There aren't very many flowers here at all right now since I'm in the desert. I miss green. I think I'm going to try to find some plants that I can keep inside. That might help cheer me up.
@ Rose: I forgot about sunflowers...I love those, too. Never saw a field of them, tho. I bet that was a sight to behold!
I may have my flowers mixed up, but I think pansies used mean "remembrance." There used to be all kinds of meanings for flowers. It was quite a "message" to get flowers from a boyfriend, ha. I always found that stuff interesting.
And good idea on getting some potted plants. Just be sure none are poisonous for Foxy, right? I had moved my porch plants inside during the winter and noticed some missing leaves on one of the plants that my cat must have chewed off. Sigh. Guess it wasn't poisonous 'cuz he seems okay.

Many more...
BTW, LOVE your new pic,too.
I have to be careful with anything that is withing Foxy's chewing reach. Lol I have to keep everything up off the floor! He's fortunate to be alive because he's taken a few bites out of the power cord for my laptop... I have to keep EVERYTHING off the floor. He for some reason reached the age of wabbit that he wants to chew on everything. Lol You know one of my favorite plants to have in my room always was? This might sound strange but Jade plants. I think they're really pretty and it's always fun to find a "volunteer" leaf that had fallen into the soil and started a new plant.
The posts just made me think of this so I thought I would add it. LOL I can't draw very well at all, not long ago I started practicing and trying to get better at it but dropped it for awhile, (I'm gonna have to start that up again.) but the funny thing is that for some reason I've always been able to do a pretty good job at drawing roses.... I have no idea why either.... Weird.
Cats are bad enough with them knocking stuff off of anything they can jump up on - either accidentally or on purpose! My cat will occasionlly steal a receipt (paper) and it ends up getting dunked in his water dish! What's up with that? Is he part raccoon? I've walked out into the dining room and discovered his water BLUE because of the type of receipt he dragged through it.
I LOVE that about cats!! Maybe it's because of how ornery my family is in general so I learned to love that quality early on, but I've always loved how cats knock stuff off your desk or whatever to get your attention. Or how they lay on something while you're reading it. That's too funny that your cat does that with his water dish! LOL My cat used to hide his toys behind the bookcase for some strange reason so we couldn't get them back out for him to play with. I have no idea why he loved to do that so much.
Maybe that's the same with Foxy? Texture??
Have you ever given your cat catnip?? I love how cats get when they get a whiff of that stuff!
I have an old Tee-shirt I wear for when I clean or mow, and it has a tiny hole dead center of the chest from where I was holding a guinea pig. It did it in like 2 seconds. Ugh.
My cat is not picky about the catnip as some are and he is happy with dried catnip that he will nibble at. I sprinkle some in his bed, and he goes nuts. It's too funny. He will eat some and then roll and roll on it. Oh, happy cat, ha. Had to use the drooling smilee...When he is in my lap and petted, he purs and drools. It's disgusting, really, but what 'cha gonna do?
They are fast little guys aren't they! Awe! I love to give cats catnip to see how they'll react. Speaking of a drooling cat by the way, my friends cat will flop down on her little scratching box with catnip in it and just lay there drooling. I wish I had a picture of it! Lol She looks like she's saying, "Ohhhh lordy, this is good stuff!!!"
Foxy's catnip is Mango however. LOL He goes ape nuts when I give him some.

Felon is arrested at Arizona-California border
By Associated Press

YUMA, Ariz. -- A convicted felon from El Salvador has been arrested in southwestern Arizona for being in the country illegally.
U.S. Border Patrol agents from the Yuma Sector say 51-year-old Jose Chicas-Argeta was among five people taken into custody Friday near the Arizona-California border.
They say a records check showed Chicas previously had been convicted of multiple felonies including attempted second-degree murder, assault with a deadly weapon, aggravated robbery and narcotics possession for sale.
Authorities say Chicas was previously removed from the U.S. and now is being processed for prosecution and another deportation.
It was unclear Friday afternoon if Chicas has legal representation yet.

If you like the lights down low, but lack a dimmer, then you might like this bulb's clever trick.
This odd-looking light has a few tricks up its sleeve.
Sony's array of LED LCD TVs at CES 2014 is topped by the XBR-X950B series, its first 4K set to include local dimming in a full-array LED backlight. If the company's previous efforts are any indication, it should have a great picture.
The UNH7150 series, the highest-end Samsung LED with neither 4K resolution nor a curved screen announced at CES, adds a new split-screen function to its suite of Smart TV extras but lacks the step-up models' superior local dimming.
Samsung has a bunch of 4K TVs at CES 2014, and most of them include curvature, wacky easel stands, and/or sizes and prices far beyond the grasp of mortal man. The UNHU8500 series is the mainstream antidote, and it has our favorite picture-enhancing LED LCD feature.
Pricing not available
Toshiba's L7400 features a brighter panel and local dimming for better contrast plus more colors than a traditional television
Pricing not available
Theres a lot to like about this LED - especially if you like the lights down low.
For basic needs, the Lumen LED Color Smart Bulb might make sense, but consider waiting to see if the app improves, and to see what the competition will bring to the table. For more advanced control of your lights, a Philips Hue setup is probably worth the extra cash.
Vizio has announced the availability of its full line of E-Series TVs, the company's cheapest. Select models feature local dimming, our favorite enhancement for LED LCD TVs, promising great picture for the money.
The term "local dimming" gets used frequently in LED LCD marketing. It's one of the few such terms that can actually denote improved picture quality, but not all local-dimming methods are created equal. Here's the difference.

While the latest Annual Report to the Nation on the Status of Cancer reveals positive news in the fact that the overall death rate from cancer has decreased during the period of 2000 through 2009, the statistics mean little to anyone has lost a loved one to the disease. Physicians and researchers have noted an increase in cancers of the throat and anus related to human papillomavirus, HPV. An additional concern about future cancer diagnoses is related to the high rate of obesity in the United States and the aging of its population, both factors in the development of cancer.
The Annual Report to the Nation on the Status of Cancer
The Annual Report to the Nation on the Status of Cancer is a collaborative effort of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the American Cancer Society, the National Cancer Institute and the North American Association of Central Cancer Registries and published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute. Each collaborating body provides its data on both cancer incidence and deaths resulting from the disease, then examines the full body of statistics to determine changing trends.
As TribLive.com reported, this annual report demonstrated that the overall cancer death rate for men dropped 1.8 percent; the overall cancer death rate for women dropped 1.4 percent.
Disturbing New Trend: Increase in Esophageal and Anal Cancers Cause by HPV, Obesity
Last year's Annual Report to the Nation on the Status of Cancer noted an increase in the incidence of cancers of the esophagus, kidney, uterus and pancreas caused by obesity; that trend was again noted in the newest report on the status of cancer.
The most recent report featured a special focus on HPV and cancer. More than 40 types of HPV have been identified, although not all of the types may lead to cancer. The sexually transmitted illness can be transmitted orally, vaginally and anally, with many people who have one or more forms of HPV having no symptoms. Increases in the rate of throat cancer caused by HPV among white men and women, while anal cancer rates caused by HPV are increasing in white and black men and women.
CBSNews.com reported that Dr. Michael B. Prsytowsky, chairman of the department of pathology at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in the Bronx, N.Y., explained that although smoking and alcohol use are also known to cause cancers in the area of the base of the tongue, 70 percent of the cancers diagnosed in the area are caused by HPV.
Bottom Line
Prsytowsky stressed the importance of the use of the HPV vaccine in both boys and girls before they become sexually active and that it is crucial for the adolescents to receive all three of the recommended doses of the vaccination to decrease the likelihood of these teens and pre-teens developing cancer later in life caused by HPV.
Baby boomers and their seniors, unable to do anything about the fact they are aging, a risk factor for cancer, can take charge of other health factors such as lowering their rates of being overweight or obese, eating recommended amounts of fiber daily and getting regular physical activity.
As a nation, we cannot count on medicine alone for our good health, or for curing an illness that might have been prevented through accepted methods.

The Réseau Art Nouveau Network now Cultural Route of the Council of Europe!
The Réseau Art Nouveau Network is delighted to announce that it has been approved for certification as a Council of Europe Cultural Route by the Governing Board of the Enlarged Partial Agreement on Cultural Routes (EPA), following the final defense which took place on 11 April 2014 in Luxembourg.
Through numerous activities (travelling exhibitions, colloquiums, publications, activities for children…), the Réseau Art Nouveau Network indeed created since 1999 an active cooperation and an exchange of experiences between multiple European actors concerned by the study and the conservation of the European and International Art Nouveau heritage, as well as by its promotion and diffusion towards the public while underlining the cultural values and the European dimension of this heritage.
It answers thus to the different requested criteria for the granting of this mention (representative theme of the European values common to several countries; projects of multilateral long-term cooperation of scientific research, of heritage conservation and enhancement – especially towards the young Europeans; organisation in independent and structured network…) and has been recognized by the EPA of the Council of Europe as a "a cultural, educational heritage and tourism co-operation project aiming at the development and promotion of an itinerary or a series of itineraries based on a historic route, a cultural concept, figure or phenomenon with a transnational importance and significance for the understanding and respect of common European values." (Annexe to Resolution CM/Res(2013)66)
It joins the 26 others Cultural Routes certified yet for a three-years collaboration especially with the European Institute of Cultural Routes (EICR), technical body set up in 1998 to ensure the continuity and development of the Cultural Routes programme in the 50 signatory countries of the European Cultural Convention.
The Cultural Routes programme was launched by the Council of Europe in 1987. Its objective was to demonstrate, by means of a journey through space and time, how the heritage of the different countries and cultures of Europe contributes to a shared cultural heritage. The Cultural Routes put into practice the fundamental principles of the Council of Europe: human rights, cultural democracy, cultural diversity and identity, dialogue, mutual exchange and enrichment across boundaries and centuries.

Exhibition and Website Mackintosh Architecture at The Hunterian in Glasgow – from 18 July 2014 to 4 January 2015
A fresh look at a familiar icon
Mackintosh Architecture at The Hunterian
The landmark research project into Mackintosh's architecture, which began in 2010, has been led by the University of Glasgow's Hunterian. It presents the first comprehensive evaluation of Mackintosh's architectural career, available on a free access website, www.mackintosh-architecture.gla.ac.uk from 18 July. The richly illustrated site includes a catalogue of Mackintosh's architectural projects and architectural drawings, over 3000 images, 350 biographies, timeline, interactive map, glossary and bibliography.
The site will be launched with the first major exhibition to be devoted to Mackintosh's architectural work. Mackintosh Architecture will present over 80 architectural drawings from The Hunterian and collections across the UK, many never exhibited before, alongside specially commissioned film, models and rarely seen archival material.
Based on the work of the research project, the exhibition challenges the familiar view of Mackintosh as the isolated genius by presenting the wider context of his architectural practice, introducing the contractors, suppliers and clients who supported the delivery of the buildings, and outlining the building process, from initial planning permission to final inspection.
The exhibition is supported by three special displays which showcase Mackintosh's skills as a draughtsman and designer, largely drawn from The Hunterian's unrivalled Mackintosh Collection: Mackintosh Travel Sketches; William Davidson: Art Collector; and C.R. Mackintosh: 'Begonias'

They put a stop on your bank account when you give them your card for room service. Since they hit me for 200, I expect the stop is a 100 a day. They didn't tell me this.

This was really good! My husband and kids loved it. I did make a couple of changes. I doubled the recipe to make 2 because I didn't know if one would be enough for the four of us. We ended up with 1/2 of one left over which my husband took for lunch the next day. I only used 1 cup of reduced fat cheese on each one and I used turkey pepperoni to cut back on some fat. I added 1/2 lb of cooked sausage to each one. This would be good with any of your favorite pizza toppings. Next time I'm going to add ham and banana peppers. The kids are wanting me to fix this again next week! Yummy!

Easy, attractive and tasty. Not restaurant quality but it's still pretty good. I did not have the RapidRise yeast but did have Fleischmann's BreadMachine Yeast which says on the label it's "also ideal for all RapidRise Recipes". Since this was a Fleichmann's recipe I took their own advice. I guess it worked. I didn't have a deep-dish pie plate so I chose to use a 10" springform pan and it worked beautifully. Since you can take the sides off it made cutting it easier. Well (olive) oiled hands made spreading the dough into the well oiled pan a breeze. I chose to mix my dough in a separate bowl. I did find that the crust was a little doughy while the cheese was perfectly brown, next time I'll bake it on the lower middle rack.
crazycatlady - "CCL"
I used my 9" round cake pan for this. Instead of pepperoni, I used ham and pineapple. I found that 1 1/2 cups of cheese was plenty. I sprinkled Italian seasoning over the cheese before baking. The directions were perfect, starting with a cold oven and then baking exactly 30 minutes. Other than playing around with the toppings, the only change I plan to make next time (this weekend!!!) is to coat the dough all over VERY well with olive oil and sprinkle some cornmeal in the bottom of my pan. Thanks for the recipe, I will use it often for a quick lunch or weekend meal!

You don't want to look at it, but you can't look away. God forbid your children see it, what will happen when they view such a corruptible, sensational image?!
Oh my, it's a breast! With a child old enough to walk, talk and ask for food attached to it. A child doing what children are meant to do.
Getting attention.
That's right, the biggest — perhaps only — winners in this cover story on breastfeeding and attachment parenting are Time magazine's publicity, marketing and circulation departments. That's what the cover image was designed to do: Get attention.
And it has gotten lots of attention. Blogs, news websites, network news shows...you name it, everyone has weighed in on the 'controversial' articles and accompanying photos. It's been almost as hotly contested as the actual practice of breastfeeding older children.
It seems the topic of motherhood and how women mother is the hottest economic product around these days. Politicians use it to generate votes and contributions; for evidence, we can look at the protracted debate over women, reproductive rights and equal pay (among other issues).
Thousands of women make a living (some more so than others) by capitalizing on their mommy-hood. Their 'mommy blogs' generate attention and sponsorships based on their writing about all sorts of mother, family and child-related subjects. Look at me: while my columns are technically not a blog, part of my expertise and opinionating is based on the sheer fact that I'm raising children.
And magazines and other media use the topic of motherhood to increase readership and viewers in an increasingly competitive marketplace. (Given that it's my topic and lead image for this column, I guess you can say I'm guilty as well.)
But when you add up the media consumption, buying power and influence women wield, it makes for a very strong reason why there's such an obsession with women who are moms.
Moms are influencers, consumers, movers, shakers, and we're a force to be reckoned with.
But why are what moms do, choose and are always such a battleground? Why must it be up for debate at all?
Take this week's Time cover and featured story, about attachment parenting. Supporters and adherents say this 'hip' kind of modern parenting technique is more natural and is actually based on anthropologically 'traditional' choices. In some ways, that's right. If you look into the etymological development for the word mama, the mostly universal way a child calls his mother, you'll find that ma ma is often the sound or word foundation for 'breast'. Think mammary and mammography.
A breast is how mammals feed their young.
So why is it so shocking and (pardon the pun) titillating? Starting even with the headline, Time asks, "Are You Mom Enough?" To me, that's the more controversial thing we need to focus on—why does mothering even need to be competitive?
Why does anyone need to diminish some mothers at the expense of others at all? Whether it's French author Elisabeth Badinter whose feminist book, "The Conflict," Modern Motherhood practices (as my Patch colleague Lisa Bigelow will write about this week), or politicians promoting traditional marriage of one woman/one man, or parents in your own town who battle over working mothers versus stay-at-home moms, why does it have to be one or the other?
Why do we belittle the choice made by the mom on the cover of Time? That's her parenting choice, and it works for her. It may not be your way of approaching being a parent or mine, and that's okay. Who is someone to say that two women in a loving, committed partnership (hopefully married if they so choose) can't be great parents, even though they 'lack male presence' (says who?)?
We've gotten so wrapped up in my-way-is-better-than-yours that judgment rules the day over compassion, acceptance and pure liberty. The mothers described in the Time article aren't making choices that impact anyone else, except those to whom they are moms. And unless their children are in direct danger, it shouldn't be anyone else's business but theirs.
When we're pushed into the 'mommy wars,' we battle over the 'right' way, the 'better' way to be, and we lose sight of what works for me is likely something very different than what works for you. That choice is what makes the world go 'round.
But it's certainly easier to marginalize women than to take on more important issues of better healthcare for women and children, paid maternity leave and fair pay practice.
Let's acknowledge the difference between the breast that's on the cover of Time from the ones gracing the cover of Playboy, and accept that Time has only gotten us talking about it because they wanted some attention. So childish of them, no?
The mother in me says that what the folks at Time really need is to be put in a time out.

Are you getting all of your stopping power??
The importance of brake flushing Brake fade is somewhat akin to brain fade. Reaction time is slower, usually snappy performance is replaced by a dull, mushy feel, and in critical situations the slow response time can be disastrous. While there are several mechanical reasons for this type of condition, one of the most overlooked causes is contaminated brake fluid. Most car owners are well aware of the importance of maintaining proper fluid levels in the vehicle, and reliably check to make sure that the brake fluid is maintained between the minimum and maximum marks on the reservoir. After all, if there's too little fluid, it's possible for air to be sucked into the lines, which can result in a spongy pedal feel and inefficient braking performance.
The importance of flushing the brake system ... taking the old fluid and replacing it with new ... is often not so well recognized. Why is flushing important? Conventional glycol-based brake fluid is hygroscopic, which means that it absorbs water. This is important, in order to keep condensation in the brake system from causing corrosion. However, eventually, the fluid will absorb all the moisture it can hold, reaching its point of saturation. Several things can happen at this point. Unabsorbed moisture can begin to collect in the system, causing corrosion in critical areas; the water can cause seals to swell and deteriorate, further contaminating the fluid; and the boiling point of the fluid drops beyond recommended levels. This means that under high-heat braking conditions, such as during hard braking or repeated brake application while descending a mountain, the fluid will start boiling sooner, which will reduce braking performance. The pedal can begin to feel spongy, and as braking efficiency drops, it takes longer to stop the vehicle.
How do you know when the system should be flushed? Most maintenance schedules that do specify it recommend changing the fluid every two years or 30,000 miles. If you live in an unusually humid climate, it's better to plan on doing it every year. However, your eyes can tell you when the time has come. Fresh brake fluid is transparent and has a slight amber-colored look. As the fluid absorbs moisture, it takes on a darker, cloudy appearance, which tells you it needs changing. This can also be verified empirically.

Imagine your favorite cheese: perhaps an aged, sharp cheddar, or maybe a blue Gorgonzola or a gentle Monterey Jack. Wouldn't it be wonderful to use those really good cheeses you love on nachos or as a sauce on macaroni or steamed vegetables?
But if you have ever tried melting high-quality cheeses, you've experienced the problem: the cheese separates into a greasy oil slick that no amount of stirring will restore.
One traditional workaround is to make a Mornay sauce, which combines the cheese with a cooked mixture of flour, butter and milk. But a Mornay sauce can end up tasting as much of cooked flour as it does of cheese. The starch in the flour actually masks some of the flavors in the cheese, so the sauce loses its vibrancy.
A clever Canadian-born cheesemaker in Chicago discovered a much better solution around 1912. His name may ring a bell — James L. Kraft.
Kraft found that adding a small amount of sodium phosphate to the cheese as it melted kept it from turning into a clumpy mess of cheese solids swimming in a pool of oil. Kraft patented his invention and used it to make canned, shelf-stable cheese. He sold millions of pounds of the stuff to the American military during World War I. The technique ultimately led to the creation of Velveeta and a whole universe of processed cheese products.
You can apply the very same chemistry, however, to achieve much higher culinary purposes. The chefs in our research kitchen have made mac and cheese with an intense goat gouda and cheddar sauce, for example, and build gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches using cheese slices that melt like the processed stuff, but are made from feta or Stilton.
In place of sodium phosphate, we use sodium citrate, which is easier to find in grocery stores or online. Like sodium phosphate, sodium citrate is an emulsifying salt that helps tie together the two immiscible components of cheese: oil and water.

"Don't even bother to show me anything that doesn't have a new kitchen...you'd be wasting your time and mine," said the assertive woman who called my real estate office the other day. I in turn didn't bother to ask whether she would consider a great home at a great price with a kitchen that could be renovated. I knew I was dealing with someone who knew exactly what she wanted.
"I just don't want to deal with re-doing a kitchen," she added, obviating my question. "Oh, and I want a kitchen that is open to the dining room or family room," she added, "I don't want to feel like a mole when I'm cooking."
There may not be too many readers old enough to remember when kitchens were to be used and not seen, certainly not from the dining room. And, that was before the advent of family rooms. As recently as the 40s and 50s, kitchens were still very small, utilitarian and ugly, hidden from public view. It was worse before that.
In 18th century America, many finer homes such as the Van Cortlandt Manor in Croton, banished the kitchen altogether from the house in separate structures, but mostly for heat considerations and the threat of fire. In fact, the major cause of death among young women in America in the 1700s and 1800s was by immolation from their skirts catching fire on open hearths. So the early kitchen was a place for toiling and drudgery, and certainly not for a cheery Martha Stewart or Rachel Ray.
However, at the end of the Civil War, when there was an exodus of household servants from the kitchen who went to work in the factories of the new industrial age, women were left in desperation mode to both produce their families' food and to cook it. Help was needed and the entrepreneurial spirit of American enterprise came to the rescue with an onslaught of new gadgetry that remains unparalleled with any other period of invention, even in today's age of technology.
Consider that before 1900, there were already more than 185 patents for various kinds of coffee grinders and more than 500 patents for different types of peelers for all the fruits and vegetables. There was even a peeler that removed the kernels from ears of corn.
There were also apple corers, cherry pitters, potato mashers, and sausage stuffers. Made of iron, with the patent numbers included in the casting, some tools were as simple as a round swiveling rod with a knife blade that peeled skin, to complex contraptions full of gears and wheels that could peel, core, slice and section, all from the same tool. This was the age of mass-produced helpers, from egg beaters and ice cream makers to juicers.
The Victorians were particularly adventuresome with invention, wanting the newest and the most modern. Outside they were creating "painted ladies" of their houses and, inside, they embraced anything that could improve the household.
Larger equipment, like the cast iron stove played significantly in the prosperity of Westchester. The discovery of an iron ore mine at Annsville Creek in Peekskill in the 1850s and the building of the railroad nearby were seminal events in the area's development as the iron stove capital of the world.
Once electricity wended its way across the country, the sky was the limit for harnessing this new power to aid housewives. Inventions from the 1880s to the 1930s included the first electric toaster, the electric kettle, electric mixers, and eventually the electric stove.
The refrigerator took a little longer as the 'ice box' continued to be in favor well into the 1930s. My mother told me that my Aunt Dolly kept her ice box until after World War II. Maybe it was a matter of the expense at the time, but I clearly remember Mother telling me that many women didn't want to give up their ice boxes because they could relieve the boredom of the day when the "ice man cometh." I didn't understand the joke until I was older and, today, I still don't know whether that was a reference to my Aunt Dolly.
So there you have it: a period of only 50 years when women demanded that the kitchen transform from survival mode to one of self-fulfillment and as an indication of upward social mobility. Next week, we'll look at the reasons for the expansive kitchens of late 1990s and early 2000s and will explore the transformative events that are revolutionizing our plans for kitchen design and appliances in today's far different economic climate.

The Cape May County Zoo is a favorite of our guests. They enjoy strolling through the park with the heavy tree cover. Even on the hottest day, the zoo provides some comfort from the heat of the day.
The Zoo is a surprise for many who look askance at the suggestion when it is raised at breakfast. What is equally quick to happen is that one or more guests will pipe in that they have been there and recommend it highly. So, more guests go and the conversation builds over the weekend.
The Cape May County Zoo is one of the top small zoos in the country. It is not just a little petting zoo designed for young children. They also have large enclosures that hold large range animals, a reptile exhibit, bird house, snow leopards and lots more. On April 20th, two baby snow leopards were born and there will be a naming contest soon. Himani has given birth to 7 cubs in just four years, which is quite rare. While they are not available for viewing just yet, they will be sometime in June.
If you are in the area, you should definitely consider a trip to the Zoo.

Lincoln Aviator Prices Paid and Buying Experience
stumpsr Posts: 2Hi...just dropped our 2004 Aviator off at the dealer to have an air conditioning problem looked at, figured while it was there we'd have them take a look at the brake pads as we are going on a trip in a couple of weeks. 31K miles on the vehicle bought new. The Service manager says the pads are almost worn and we need to replace the rotors (Hah!) as they cant be turned. Also said that the emergency brake shoes need to be replaced due to corrosion.(Hah again). Total due if done there $801.....Needless to say I'm going to have the car looked at someplace else. Anyone else had an experience like this? or agree or disagree with my assesment?
HI, there: My Lincoln dealer is offering 10k off sticker on 2005 AWD Aviator. (This was with no negotiating and includes the 5k rebate.) Herer's the thing--the vehicle has 5k miles on it. How do I calculate the value of the depreciation--the amount that should be deducted off the final price to account for the mileage? Thanks for any info.
dkla76 Posts: 41Hey im about to buy 2005 4x2 Aviator w/ almost no options. I know of $5000 customer rebate, $1000 rebate(if i finance thru lincoln), $500(college rebate), and manufacturer to dealer $3000 rebate. i qualify for all. so im looking at $8500-9500 rebates.
is it reasonable to ask for price of Invoice minus $9500?
that would be ~$38000-9500= $28500 plus ttl, etc.

---- — A Perkins Street man was arrested on charges of domestic assault and battery and violating a restraining order, after officers responded to a call at his home Monday about 5:15 p.m.
Police said Chris A. Spanks, 33, while in violation of a restraining order, grabbed a woman during an argument and applied pressure to a prior injury that had been healing.
Police arrested a 46-year-old man listed as homeless on three warrants, after finding the man sleeping on exhaust grates in front of the Cape Ann YMCA Tuesday about 5:08 a.m.
Officers said that Scott Michael Newman was wanted for providing liquor to a person younger than 21 years old, contributing to the delinquency of a child, and disturbing the peace.
He provided police with a Florida driver's license and told officers he'd needed a place to sleep for the night. Police arrested Newman on the warrants.
Police arrested a 21-year-old Peabody man on charges of violating a restraining order active in Gloucester by sending text messages Monday about 12:29 p.m.
Police said they tracked Lykourgos J. Tzioumas to Peabody and arrested him there before transporting him back to Gloucester.

A recent collaboration between Sebastian Inlet Sportfishing Association and FL Tech took place aboard the 85 ft. Thunderforce. WFIT's Terri Wright and Michelle Walker were along for the outing. Here, in part two of our look at this excursion, we explore the role of FL Tech faculty and students.
Early one overcast morning, WFIT General Manager, Terri Wright and I met up with a group of scientists and members of the Sebastian Inlet Sportfishing Association (SISA) at a marina near Sebastian Inlet.
More Americans fish than play golf and tennis combined and the state of Florida is ranked number one in total expenditures by anglers.

Al Rusche was the best police chief I worked for during my career and I wished more than once that he was still around to give me his honest opinion. It was something I once witnessed him do in his office that let me know I could still count on him for advice. In the mid 90s I was running (sometimes in seemed as if it ran me) the largest undercover drug operation the department had ever been involved in. Mike, our most proactive road officer, had arrested a perp on a traffic stop in possession
In 1997, Luke Woodum entered Pearl High School in Mississippi and started shooting. Two students were killed and seven others injured before he was stopped. Who stopped him? A principal armed with a .45 caliber handgun that he retrieved from his truck. How many others were saved that day by the principal? Do you think any parents in Pearl, Mississippi said I only want the police to have guns in the school, after that day? Or do they wonder how many more students would have been saved if the gun

I Teach Cadets and Write Training Articles for Selfish Reasons
I have selfish reasons for wanting our police instructors to get better and improve the safety of our law enforcers and the society they serve. With frequent visits to the Cleveland Clinic, I have come to the realization that I will not live to a ripe old age. I have a vested interest in the next generation of police officers who will become the guardians that protect my wife and kids (maybe grandkids) after I am gone.
During my career I was shot at, stabbed, and had the snot kicked out of me more times than I would like to recall. I have been scared out of my wits a time or two, and experienced the thrill of an adrenaline rush brought on by life threatening encounters. I also had the pleasure of experiencing the release of all that power or throwing up whichever you want to call it.

I'll be attending the BCS EA specialist group meeting tomorrow (10th Sept 2009) at 18:00, 5 Southampton Street, London – at this meeting there will be a presentation of case studies from specialist group members focusing on the following areas:
- Business value delivered by EA
- Professional development for enterprise architects
- Governance of enterprise architecture
I'm looking forward to meeting my EA peers, and I'm keen to hear different perspectives on questions such as these…
- If the EA effort has been going for a while, are they entering the "trough of disillusionment" and how have they addressed this?
- What was the trigger event that meant they got funding/energy for an EA initiative? New CEO? A big disaster that they were rebounding from?
- Are they well engaged with project/programme teams?
- Architecture and/or project governance in place? Working well?
- Centralised or decentralised model?
- What lessons have they learned?
- Views on TOGAF and other frameworks?
- Any relationship to business process improvement teams, six sigma initiatives etc?
- Budget, team size etc
- EA cycle times
- Communication approach?
- Metrics in place?
