Explore Southern Lakes of New Zealand
Distinction Hotel Queenstown, Nugget Point Boutique Hotel & Spa
is the ideal base from which to explore the scenery of Fiordland, Arrowtown, Wanaka and the majestic Southern Alps, through to the West Coast. You can travel to any one of our Southern beauties by helicopter, departing from
Distinction Hotel Queenstown's own helicopter pad...
Fiordland: Milford and Doubtful Sound
Fiordland with its stunning expanses of mountainous farmland, rugged mountains and crystal clear lakes is serenity at its best. You will feel like you're the only person in the world.
Take a day trip to Milford Sound, described as the eighth wonder of the world. Here you can view wildlife, dolphins and seals from a boat cruise in the serene and breathtaking natural setting of Fiordland National Park. Milford Sound showcases the dramatic figure of Mitre Peak (made famous in the Lord of the Ring Trilogy films), and is more easily accessible by road than its neighbour, Doubtful Sound.
Doubtful Sound is the more subdued of the two sounds and offers limited road access. Perfect for a laid-back experience, away from other tourists due to its remote location, this sound is quieter during the summer months. Both Milford and Doubtful offer the chance to experience the fiords by water. Take a day cruise for a snap shot of this stunning area or book an overnight cruise for a once in a lifetime experience.
Arrowtown is a must see for any traveller staying with us at
Distinction Hotel Queenstown, Nugget Point Boutique Hotel & Spa
Just a 20 minute drive from our boutique Queenstown hotel
, Arrowtown is a quaint tourist village, full of historic buildings, boutique shops and steeped with gold mining history.
At the height of the Central Otago gold rush, over 7,000 miners camped on the river banks. Arrowtown was one of the few gold mining towns to establish a community after the rush and now it's home to around 2,400 residents. Make sure to walk to the end of the shops, up Buckingham Street to marvel at the tiny cottages, built many years ago.
On the shores of Lake Wanaka, 120km north-west of Queenstown, lays Wanaka, a popular holiday destination in both summer and winter. Wanaka makes a great day trip, with a range of great activities to keep you and your family busy.
Ride the monster school bus at Cardrona Adventure Park, visit Cinema Paradiso and enjoy a movie from the comfort of a Lazy Boy couch or even a car, or spend a few hours at Puzzling World, with a 3-D maze, giant kaleidoscope and an illusion room. In winter time Wanaka boasts stunning views of the snow capped mountains and offers great skiing or snowboarding at Cardrona or Treble Cone ski fields.

"Everyone that has received Dahlia's birth announcement has just loved it. This was a great design that allowed me to show case several pictures. I had an amazing photographer, so I was looking for a classy design that wasn't to busy to showcase her photos. Also with the style of the pictures, anything to "cutesy" defeated the elegance. The snowflake design worked well into her being a Jan 1st baby, I just changed the message to Happy New Year!"
"Everyone loved her birth announcement!! They turned out great!! I was able to customize the fonts and colors to get the finished product I wanted!! Shipping was quick and I received them very fast!!"
"The announcement came just as it looked on the computer. I loved the options that I had, and the design of the card. The paper quality was better than I expected as well. Everyone who has seen our announcement has complimented on how nice it turned out. Thank you for a great product!"
"My husband and I chose this announcement for our baby because we missed the boat on sending a "holiday" announcement, but with an early December baby, wanted the card to have a wintry theme. This card was not only beautiful and snowy to us, but got LOTS of compliments from our friends and family. I would happily use tinyprints again!"
"I kept my birth announcement very simple with just my baby's name, DOB, and weight. the text was light in color as my pictures were dark on that side. I loved the thickness of the paper. I should've chosen the Pearl White Shimmer Paper so the dots would have appeared metallic but I am very happy with how they turned out even on the regular paper."

Me; Just Gris
If you had the choice to either live in the city or the countryside, most people would choose the countryside: they want to live in an environment which is quiet and relaxing, but not me. Who would want to live in a place where no one else is? Where you could scream as loud as you wanted and no one would hear?
My name is Gris. I know you're probably thinking 'Is that even a name?' Well it isn't, not really. My parents don't love me, if they did then would they call me Gris. It means grey in Spanish. I've always wanted to change it, ever since I can remember. I wasn't always so negative; trying to be something that I am not. There was a time where I could be just me, but not anymore.
My name
My friends were what kept me happy, as at home my parents would ignore me so they could scream down each others throats. We were a struggling family, when others went on trips to wonderful places; I couldn't because my parents didn't have enough money. Money. I think that is the word I have heard the most in my entire lifetime.
We were learning names of colours at school and I was begging to enjoy the subject. When I saw my name next to the colour grey I was confused, so I asked why this was? I was told that my name meant grey. I felt all cold, as if I had walked outside on a frosty day with no coat on. This proved my parents didn't love me. What kind of parents call their child grey? It seemed as though time had slowed down, as if when I was running, I was really walking. I ended up in a field, the sky was grey and miserable. I thought that was very fitting to the way I felt. I went and sat under the large oak tree, and thought about how worthless I really was. I decided as soon as I was old enough I would change my name to Tom, my brother's name.
My Brother
My brother was my inspiration, my idol, but I am saddened to say that I only knew him properly for five years of my life. My brother was the one who kept me safe when mum and dad were arguing; he made me not feel scared. Tom was the one who looked after me, fed me and cleaned me. He was like the parent that I never had.
When I was six years old, a terrible tragedy occurred. One day he couldn't take it anymore, so he took me, some food, water and his lucky coin. He found it in our garden when he was young and it had always been with him ever since, he never let it go. He said it was a Roman coin, and it was worth a lot of money. He never told mum and dad about it, they would go crazy over it, they would sell it for sure.
We left as the clock struck 11. I've always liked the night time, it always fascinated me. Tom was very fond of sailing; he loved building boats and the sea. So he took me down to the port and to his sailboat. The weather was the worst I'd ever seen to this day. This rain poured down onto us, but Tom carried on working to get us free from this awful life; his green eyes glistening as thought they were emeralds. We were set free with the roars of the thunder and the anger of the lighting upon us. I didn't feel right, it was almost like God was telling us something bad was going to happen though the weather. It seems like the weather also reflects my mood. I miss Tom so much, why him, why not me? Why did they have to find me and send me back? To be honest, I would have rather died there and then with Tom.
My School
I moved school. Luckily enough, my dad got a job in London, the capital city. I didn't know anyone there. Great. I thought to myself, time to create a new Gris; a new me.

Hartnell College Invites Community to Open House for Updated Fitness Center
November 23rd, 2004
Hartnell College is inviting community members to an open house of its refurbished, state-of-the-art Fitness Center.
The event is scheduled for Wednesday, Dec. 8, from 4 to 6 p.m.
The 4,500-square-foot facility has been remodeled thanks to funds made available by the passage of Measure H in 2002.
"We most cordially invite the public to come by to see our updated facility," said Sherry Schumann, Hartnell's dean of physical education and director of athletics. "We are very proud of what we have to offer in the way of a modern, up-to-date facility that is geared to helping students and community members develop their physical well-being and improve their overall health."
The refurbishing cost $153,000 and includes new cardiovascular and weight-training equipment as well as new flooring. Specifically, there are 14 new Cybex Eagle weight machines, three new Cybex Arc Trainers, eight new Cybex Pro treadmills, five new Concept-H rowing machines, new plated-loaded free weight training equipment, adaptive PE equipment, and new free weights.
The center, used by 800 to 1,200 students and community members every semester, is located in Hartnell's physical education building on Alisal Street close to the corner of Homestead Avenue.
For more information, call (831) 755-6830.

Meeting of the Vines
So when I came home carrying bottles with ratings of 87 and 88 – or even worse, unrated – I had some explaining to do.
It wasn't that I completely dismissed her instructions; rather, I felt like I had equally compelling criteria for choosing a wine - namely, I thought it was important to pick some winners. Ultimately, in the spirit of diplomacy, I picked three bottles that met her standards, and three that met mine.
Predictably, my diplomacy wasn't enough to avoid triggering an exchange between my curious wife and me, which went something like this:
Her: They're not all rated 90?
Me: No, but the ones that are lower should be good. They've won gold medals at different wine shows.
Her: So what? There are thousands of those little wine competitions. The ratings are more objective.
Me: Sure, but what does a number tell you? I've never even heard of the guy who rates them.
Her: It means they're good!
Me: Yeah … but it's a different kind of good. I'm more impressed by the competition.
It wasn't until a bit later that I realized why I was so inherently biased towards contest winners as opposed to high scoring wines. And contrary to what you're probably thinking, it's not simply because I'm a runner – more specifically, it's because I'm a student of the sport of distance running.
Among people who care about such things, one of the most frequent arguments concerning the relative greatness of distance runners is the importance of world records in comparison to gold medals. In other words – is it a greater accomplishment to do something better than anyone in history, or to defeat all of your peers while competing for the most prestigious championships?
If you're like most people, your first instinct is to think a world record is the more admirable feat – but think of it this way: many world record efforts are nothing more than time trials set under the most ideal conditions imaginable. For every distance above 800 meters, record attempts are typically targeted weeks in advance, with pacers recruited to pull the runner through the first stages of the race before dropping out later on. Even then, attempts are abandoned if weather conditions are not ideal or if the athlete isn't 100% healthy - it's basically a speed laboratory where all variables are carefully controlled before the experiment ever begins.
Now compare those conditions to a race like the Olympic 5K. The event is held rain or shine (usually in hot or humid or – in the most recent Olympiad - smoggy extremes) whether the athletes are healthy or not. All of the best runners in the world are there, each one trying to influence the race in his preferred fashion (tactical pacing, surging at particular times, jostling within a large pack, deciding whether to draft or run clear of the fray) in order to win the most prestigious title of their lives. There is a preliminary heat before the finals, making stamina a requirement in addition to speed. The race is a battle; the champion is the one who takes everyone's greatest effort and proves himself better than all of them.
The most classic example of the record-versus-race debate goes back more than 50 years, to the time of the 4-minute mile barrier. Roger Bannister broke the mark first – with three pacers to help him – in May of 1954, only to have his world record shattered in similar fashion by John Landy just 46 days later. They didn't race head to head until August of that year, when Bannister outkicked Landy in what is still referred to as the "Mile of the Century". Bannister's winning time in the race was significantly slower than Landy's still-standing world record – but if you asked 100 people in 1954 who the world's best miler was, 99 of them would have said Bannister. It was hardly even a question.
So … which accomplishment is more impressive? Which one best reflects the spirit of the sport? These are questions that can be bounced back and forth all day; they also bring us back to the aforementioned bottles of wine.
Think of the bottles with 90+ ratings as world record holders: they've scored higher than all other competitors in their class. The gold medal winners are the, er, … gold medal winners. They've challenged their competitors face to face under uniform circumstances and emerged victorious.
Speaking of face to face showdowns … when it comes to differences of opinion with my wife, I'm about as successful as Charlie Brown trying to kick the football from Lucy's tee. I've mentioned before that my wife is wicked smart – and if you've read this blog for more than a week, you already know the word I use most frequently to describe myself (hint: it rhymes with schmidiot). But for the purpose of friendly competition, I'll go ahead and ask: which bottle of wine would you reach for first? A world record holder or a gold medalist? Or perhaps just the one with the prettiest label?
I suspect I know how this one's going to play out, but feel free to and weigh in below and confirm it.

WISCONSIN RAPIDS, WI (WSAU) - A judge ruled in favor of a proposed Saratoga mega-dairy in a dispute with the town over building permits.
Wysocki Family Farms has proposed Golden Sands Dairy, a 7-thousand acre farm in the Town of Saratoga that would manage 5,300 dairy cattle, plus the crops and support services for the farm. Saratoga's Board opposes building the dairy, and their Building Inspector Lorelei Fuehrer has refused to issue the building permits. Wysocki Family Farms filed a civil suit last July after Town Board members placed a moratorium on new construction.
Portage County Judge Thomas Eagon ruled that the state's commercial building code specifically exempts farm buildings, and that Fuehrer must issue the permits for seven proposed structures on the would-be farm's property.
Eagon acted as a substitute judge in the case, holding a hearing last fall. That's when Saratoga officials claimed Wysocki Family Farms did not submit all required information prior to the start of the building moratorium. The Wysocki's claim they met the requirements, but the town still failed to issue the building permits.
A group of four cranberry growers filed a brief last month, opposing the Golden Sands Dairy. They claim the farm would add nitrates and other contaminants to the water supplies including Seven Mile Creek and Ten Mile Creek, endangering their "organically grown" cranberry classification.
The farm still needs special permits for high capacity wells from the DNR. A decision is expected later this spring.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - University of Texas officials say the school is tightening security controls for their upcoming graduation ceremonies.
The school announced Wednesday that all bags and purses will be searched and no bags larger than 12 inches will be allowed into any of ceremonies on May 15-16. That includes the outdoor, university-wide graduation at ceremony at the school tower.
School policy already banned coolers, picnic baskets, lawn chairs and large strollers.
School officials cited "recent national events" for the change. Two bombs near the finish line of the April 15 Boston Marathon killed three people and injured more than 260 others.

Fortune reports that Lesjak had told then-CEO Leo Apotheker in private that she was opposed to the deal, thinking it was too expensive.
Apotheker had proposed paying 11x revenues for Autonomy, when comparable companies were priced at around 3x.
But Apotheker was surprised when she countered him at the board meeting. According to Fortune, citing somebody at the board meeting, Lesjak said:
I don't think it's a good idea. I don't think we're ready. I think it's too expensive. I'm putting a line down. This is not in the best interests of the company.
HP went through with the deal anyway.
But the conflict was just one of many examples of how Apotheker lost control over the complicated political landscape at HP, and he was ousted less than two months later.
The thing is, the conventional wisdom in Silicon Valley says that Lesjak was probably right.
One CEO of an enterprise company that does not compete with HP told us that he thought the valuation was completely insane, and grounds for firing Apotheker even without all his other slip-ups. Some HP partners have also criticized the deal, and Oracle said they passed on the deal at $6 billion because it was too expensive.

go really anywhere else for pizza unless you love the taste of canned toppings
Posted by Homeboy on 03/21/2012
This spot has the best pizza in the 'hood, period. I am not sure what the negative folks were eating, but the variety and flavors are awesome...try the pesto slice...it's a white pizza painted with pesto and garlic-lots of flavor! Try the Carcioffo...thinner square white pizza with artichokes, awesome; try the potato and onion slice. Fantastic! Also, decent salads (arugula, almonds, gorgonzola, etc, with a nice vinagraitte)...can't beat this place for your local pizza shop.
Posted by Anonymous on 08/30/2011
The crust: devoid of crispiness, too thick, doughy, undercooked. The sauce: flavorless and probably out of a can. The cheese: also flavorless and cheap. Overall, it has the consistency of microwaved pizza and virtually no flavor at all. Never again.
Posted by seikei on 05/28/2011
Need I say more? We're looking for a new pizza place. This one charged me $5 extra for extra cheese and $5 extra for sausage. Got very little of either, and the sausage was as tasteless as the rest of the heavy, bready, doughy mass. The search goes on!
Posted by Regina on 05/20/2011
I love this pizza place, it's my new favorite. I've lived in the neighborhood for about a little over a year, but I just managed to try La Grolla this week. It's delicious! I haven't tried their flat pizza, but the ones made with the thicker bread are delicious! They make some of them with Ricotta instead of tomato sauce, which could definitely be weird, and a turn off (I don't even like Ricotta), but it works! Delicious! Really fresh tasting with fun new flavors. The service is also super friendly - your pizza gets brought to you on this little wood pan thing, and you pay when you're done eating. Lovely neighborhood joint!
Posted by Foodie on 02/08/2011
Yes to this special pizza! Everything served with care. Great pizza toppings and combinations. Feel sorry for those who don't stray from a regular slice. Yum on the UWS!
Posted by Anonymous on 10/30/2010
We couldn't figure out if the pizza was cooked or not, but since it tasted like cooked bread (and nothing else) we figured to just eat the pasta we got which wasn't the one we ordered.

One week ago, the FOX 9 Investigators told the story of two young women who say they were abused by a cult leader for years in rural Pine County. Now, the county attorney is reviewing the criminal case.
INVESTIGATORS: Maidens of River Road
Although the Pine County Attorney's Office declined to comment beyond saying the investigation is active -- as they always do, Fox 9 News has learned they are actually reviewing the case because the clock is ticking. The criminal statute of limitations to file charges is set to run out next year.
Jess Schweiss and Lindsey Tornambie shared their memories from when they were members of the River Road Fellowship, a group with 150 members and one authorities call a cult.
For more than a decade, the group operated near the town of Finlayson. When Schweiss and Tornambie were just 12 and 13, their parents allowed them to live with other girls -- called "the maidens" -- at the group's large camp headquarters. That's where they say the cult's leader, Victor Barnard, sexually assaulted them for years.
The first tip that came to police dates back four years to a member of the group, David Larson, who confronted Barnard about sleeping with adult, married women in the group. He later learned about the allegations involving underage girls.
On Thursday, Larson told Fox 9 the police did their job -- but he claims Pine County Attorney John Carlson simply wanted the case to go away.
"He kept saying, 'No way we'd win.' We wouldn't win the case. They'd come in with all these experts, discredit these girls -- everyone," Larson said. "He said adamantly that he didn't have a chance to win, but everyone else was 100 percent disagreeing with that."
Larson wasn't the only one to hear the discouraging sentiment either.
"They've explained to me that they're worried they won't win -- that this is a case they can't win, that there are too many people who will defend Victor," Schweiss said. "They will defend him before me."
When declining to file charges against Barnard four years ago after the allegations of adultery -- which is still illegal if it involves coercion by members of the clergy, the county attorney wrote, "The sad truth is: These individuals admit that they were essentially 'brainwashed' by Barnard and readily and willingly did what he wanted them to do."
Prosecutors also wrote that there were concerns Barnard was having sex with juveniles too, but referred to the claims as "merely suspicions" -- much to the chagrin of Pine County Sheriff Robin Cole.
Cole said, "I have no doubt we have probable cause."
With young women now coming forward to police two years after the letter declining charges was written, it remains to be seen whether the doubts county prosecutors expressed before can be cleared up; however, time is running out because the criminal statute of limitations will expire next year.
Investigators believe Barnard and many of his followers left for Washington state, and Cole told Fox 9 News there is no reason to believe he's changed his ways.

I was so disappointed in this product! With much weight at all, it will tip over. It cannot be used for shovels, rakes or anything somewhat heavy. It looked much larger in the photo.

About Me Midrange Shopper
The only negative comment from my husband was that the connecting rods were too short. When garden tools were inserted, the unit became top heavy. So, he replaced the rods with pvc pipe purchased at a home improvement store.
Bottom LineYes, I would recommend this to a friend

Garden Tool Rack Works Great
By Doctor K.
from Dover, DE
Tool rack saves space in the tool shed -- many tools can be stored in a small area. With the heavier ends of the tools sticking up in the air, the rack tends to be top-heavy (I had to secure it to a stationary part of the shed). Other than that, it's efficient and keeps things organized.

Poor Design. Poor construction. Missing hardware. Incomplete instructions. This was a loser.
Shorter than expected
By chaletx
from Austin, TX
I read the other reviews, so knew what I was getting wasn't heavy-duty, and it's not. It's not as tall as I would like, either, but again, I knew that going in. All that being said, I'm satisfied with this purchase so far. It's easy to assemble, and as long as it's standing in an actual corner of my garage, it can hold the lawn tools I put in it in a fairly small space without too much trouble.

May 27 (Bloomberg) -- Hedge funds are the least bullish on gold in more than five years as speculation about the pace of money printing by central banks whipsawed prices, driving volatility to a 17-month high.
Money managers cut their net-long position by 9 percent to 35,686 futures and options as of May 21, the lowest since July 2007, U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission data show. Holdings of short contracts rose 6.7 percent to a record 79,416. Net-bullish wagers across 18 U.S.-traded commodities slid 2.1 percent, as investors became more bearish on coffee and wheat.
Gold's 60-day historical volatility touched the highest since December 2011 last week and a gauge of price swings for the SPDR Gold Trust, the biggest bullion-backed exchange-traded fund, surged 73 percent this year. Bullion see-sawed as Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke testified before Congress on May 22. Two days later, Bank of Japan Governor Haruhiko Kuroda said he's done enough to spur growth.
"Gold has so many drivers that it leads to a lot of getting pushed around by one thing or another," said Dan Denbow, a fund manager at the $1 billion USAA Precious Metals & Minerals Fund in San Antonio. "It makes it impossible to determine a direction."
Futures dropped 5.3 percent in May, poised for a second monthly decline. The Standard & Poor's GSCI Spot Index of 24 commodities is little changed while the MSCI All-Country World of equities rose 7.1 percent. A Bank of America Corp. Index shows Treasuries lost 1.3 percent.
Increasing price swings have made gold the fourth-most volatile commodity in the GSCI index since March 29, data compiled by Bloomberg show. Silver topped the ranking for raw materials tracked by S&P, followed by natural gas and corn. Investors sold 467 metric tons of gold through exchange-traded products this year, contributing to $45.3 billion of value being erased from global holdings, as some lost faith in the metal as a store of wealth.
Futures traded in New York rose 0.5 percent as of 10:45 a.m. after earlier slipping as much as 0.3 percent.
Gold rose as much as 2.6 percent and dropped as much as 1.8 percent on May 22, the day Bernanke told Congress that raising interest rates or curbing bond buying too soon would endanger the recovery, while also saying the bank may slow its asset purchases if there are signs of sustained economic growth. Kuroda said May 24 the Bank of Japan had announced enough monetary easing and would implement flexible money-market operations.

Being a member of NHL royalty obviously has its perks, and for "The Great One" Wayne Gretzky, it involves being the owner of a sprawling estate located in Thousand Oaks, Calif.
Situated in the gated community surrounding Sherwood Country Club, Gretzky's mansion and lavish grounds recently were put on the market. Asking price? $14.9 million.
Built in 2002 by Gretzky in partnership with "architect to the stars" Richard Landry, the main home by itself measures a whopping 10,815 square feet, but the many buildings and associated amenities that surround it on the 6.5-acre plot, including two guest houses, is where the high asking price is truly legitimized.
As described in its listing, via Zillow.com:
A timeless estate, offering the utmost in luxury, with a chic Metropolitan vibe. Designed by famed architect Richard Landry, this newly remodeled spectacular home offers privacy and security, set on a 6.5 acre promontory within the prestigious gates of Sherwood Country Club. The residence includes 6BD, 8BA, over 13,000 SF with 2 guest houses. A gated entry leads you to a circular driveway with a scenic backdrop of the majestic mountains and breathtaking panoramic views of Lake Sherwood. Exquisite attention to detail and artisan craftsmanship is found in each and every room. Amenities include a master suite with sitting room and dual baths, screening room, fitness facility, office, championship tennis court, outdoor entertainment area wood burning pizza oven, wood and gas BBQ, promenade terraces and gardens. Located within the 24 hour guard gated Sherwood Country Club Estates, home to the world famous signature golf course and country club often called the ultimate living experience.
Ultimate living experience, indeed, although the descriptive listing does not quite encompass the exquisite and luxurious nature of the home and the lavish environs that comprise the surrounding grounds:
(For more photos of Gretzky's estate, click here)
While Wayne Gretzky may not generate the kind of internet frenzy and headlines his photogenic and popular daughter Paulina attracts on a routine basis these days, the fact alone that he has been the owner of such a prime piece of real estate certainly and is listing it for $14.9 million indicates he's not suffering too much.
[H/T NBCNews.com]
He should sell it to Dustin Johnson
im sure he's following Phil Mikelson out of California. will Gov Moonbeam ever realize that for every action there is a reaction, that capital is mobile and people think they can utilize and invest their earnings better than the idiots in Sacramento

Property owners in coastal and low-lying areas around the nation are experiencing sticker shock these days from a one-two punch of bad news about flood insurance. Many homeowners are finding out that a FEMA re-mapping process is categorizing their properties as flood risks for the first time. At the same time, the 2012 Biggert-Waters Act, a wide-ranging reform to the financially troubled National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), is triggering radical increases in the premiums for the coverage many homeowners are required to have in order to receive a mortgage.
Now, a special report from NBC News charges that FEMA's administration of the flood insurance program is unfairly biased toward wealthier property owners and their well-connected lawyers and consultants, while ordinary folks are finding the agency's bureaucratic hurdles too complicated and costly to negotiate.
If your premiums go up because of a change to the Flood Insurance Risk Map (FIRM), you can appeal the change. But that's expensive and complicated. And according to Part One of the NBC report, the well-heeled owners of big, expensive shorefront buildings have a definite advantage in that game (see: "Why Taxpayers Will Bail Out the Rich When the Next Storm Hits," by Bill Dedman).
"As homeowners around the nation protest skyrocketing premiums for federal flood insurance, the Federal Emergency Management Agency has quietly moved the lines on its flood maps to benefit hundreds of oceanfront condo buildings and million-dollar homes, according to an analysis of federal records by NBC News," the network reports. "In more than 500 instances from the Gulf of Alaska to Bar Harbor, Maine, FEMA has remapped waterfront properties from the highest-risk flood zone, saving the owners as much as 97% on the premiums they pay into the financially strained National Flood Insurance Program. NBC News also found that FEMA has redrawn maps even for properties that have repeatedly filed claims for flood losses from previous storms."
Even as Hurricane Sandy was bearing down on the Jersey shore, the NBC News report says, a FEMA official reclassified a mile of Alabama beach that had been hit by storm flooding twice before, placing the shoreline back into FEMA's low-risk category. The move cut one high-rise condo building's flood premium from $143,190 a year down to just $8,457 a year—even though the building had collected on its flood insurance twice before, claiming $11,562 in damages after Hurricane Katrina and $250,000 after Hurricane Ivan.
What explains the favorable floodplain rulings from FEMA? According to NBC News, it's favorable treatment obtained by well-connected insiders (see part two of the NBC report, "Meet the Flood Insurance 'Robin Hood' Who Saves Condo Owners Millions," by Bill Dedman). Case in point: a Florida company called Flood Zone Correction, Inc., and its president, Dan Freudenthal. Representing only commercial property owners and working on commission, Freudenthal earns a portion of the money saved by his clients from premium reductions, and he boasts of his connections to high-level FEMA officials, says NBC. "When he encounters resistance from a local official, Freudenthal calls Washington," the network reports. "'I just got off the phone with the head of the insurance side of NFIP and one of the head mapping people at FEMA,' he said in one email to a town official … Freudenthal (pronounced FROOD-en-thal) told NBC News that he has filed successful applications for flood map changes for about 100 coastal condo projects in Florida, Alabama, Texas, South Carolina, and Georgia, in addition to hundreds of inland properties."
Small property owners who don't have the benefit of a well-connected advocate can find themselves high and dry, reports NBC (see: "For Average Joes, Fighting FEMA Flood Maps Isn't Easy or Cheap," by Miranda Leitsinger). Stewart Neff, the chairman of the board of Supervisors for the small Pennsylvania town of Warrior's Mark, told the network he was blindsided by the consequences of a FEMA map update for his town. "I'm afraid I was somewhat naïve on this," he said. "I wasn't prepared to analyze this map."
Locals say the creek FEMA added to the map for their town, which the agency said created a flood risk for property owners in the area, does not exist. But they missed their date for an appeal, and for regular wage earners, the $1,000 to $5,000 cost of a private engineering survey they need to contest the FEMA determination is too high an obstacle—even though their flood insurance premiums are set to go up by hundreds of dollars a year if they don't fight the decision and win.
With odds of succeeding in an appeal uncertain, and no agent who's willing to take their case on spec, average homeowners tend to give up. Said homeowner Paul Weamer, who decided to give up the fight: "It just seemed like the whole thing's rigged against you. If somehow you end up in FEMA's sights, there's not much you can do to get out of that, other than pay."

Men's Leather Touch Sensor Gloves 1 1
Touch sensor gloves I ordered the touch sensor gloves as a large and had to return them for a medium. My hand measures about 8" from the base of my palm to the top of my middle figure. The medium size glove fits my hand well but there is still about 1" extra length in the fingers but I would not go any smaller. The quality is very good and the Thinsulate keeps my hands warm. The touch sensor works well but since the fingers are a little long it can be a little clumsy. Overall I am happy with the gloves. they are comfortable and they have a quality look. February 18, 2014

When U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., has a good idea, he likes to talk about it.
Manchin appeared on FOX News Channel's "The O'Reilly Factor" Oct. 23 then hosted a media conference call Oct. 24 to talk about his plan to delay the health care individual mandate, which he created with Sen. Johnny Isakson, R-Ga., to allow for a year of transition.
"If we have the product right, trust me, people will buy it," Manchin said. "Nobody should be made to buy insurance that's not affordable."
Manchin said during his appearance on FOX News Channel's "The O'Reilly Factor," the difference between his plan and a plan in the works from Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., is that his plan has a certain deadline of Jan. 1, 2015, to delay any penalties for the individual mandate.
Manchin said the idea started when he heard there would be a delay in penalties for large employers that don't provide health insurance coverage in 2014.
"This is a much more gigantic undertaking," Manchin said about the individual mandate.
He said it's neither his nor Isakson's intent to kill the ACA bill, and he wants people to shop the marketplace and find affordable coverage.
"We don't think there should be any fines or penalties," Manchin said. "There should be a transition year."
Manchin said everyone should work through the problems that will pop up, and he has experience with that kind of situation.
As the newly elected governor of West Virginia in 2005, Manchin said a new computer system to handle Medicaid billing had severe glitches. Manchin said he gathered several people to fix the problem, which is what should be done to work through the launch of the ACA marketplace.
He said he should know by next week if his idea will pick up steam, but he expects seven or eight lawmakers from each party to support it, which he called "pretty strong in the Senate today."
"Having the threat of having a fine or a crime doesn't make any sense at all when you're trying to work out the bugs and the problems," he said. "It's a pretty common sense approach."

Gilbert Signed, Clears up Nothing
In January, Tom Gilbert turned 25. Although he had not yet played one full season, that number indicated signing him long term was going to cost the Edmonton Oilers extra dollars.
The news today (6 years, $24million) that the Oilers purchased 4 years of free agency makes the dollar amount less difficult to deal with but also tells us a few things about the future. While some Oilers fans were talking about "end of the roster" defenders like Matt Greene and Ladislav Smid heading out of town, it now appears that Joni Pitkanen is gone, gone, gone.
A quick look-see into next season tells us why Pitkanen (and his new number) will be so very difficult to maintain.
Let's start by listing what we know: all of the players who are clearly roster players and have been signed for next season. The numbers I'm using are cap hit totals from nhlnumbers.com
- GOAL-Garon 1.1M; Roloson 3.67M
- LD-Souray 5.4M; Smid .886M
- RD-Gilbert 4M; Staios 2.7M; Greene 1.15M; Roy .500M
- C-Horcoff 3.6; Cogliano 1.133M; Brodziak .497M
- L-Penner 4.25M; Torres 2.25M; Moreau 2M
- R-Hemsky 4.1M; Pisani 2.5M; Gagner 1.625M
Now that leaves out UFA's (Sanderson, Reasoner, Glencross), RFA's (Nilsson, Stoll, Pouliot, Stortini, Jacques up front and Grebeshkov, Pitkanen on D plus the depth goalie Deslauriers) and any left over dollars to sign free agents. That's 17 players and 41,361,000 spent before the UFA's, RFA's and what some of us believe is Job 1 (Horcoff extension) have been handed by the Oilers management group.
The cap number being talked about (last time I checked) was $56.3M with that silly tag that a team can spend several million extra dollars in summer before they Mogilny some poor bastard who had been an NHL player just months before the GM went on a bender.
Before we go any deeper, let me state here and now that I am not the best person to be doing this kind of estimate. It's a blue sky estimate on my part and it is based on nothing other than observation (Kevin Lowe usually overpays defensemen) and the long held truth that fans like me estimate lower than we should when it comes to salary.
- Glencross: 3 years, $1.8M/yr.
- Reasoner: 1 year, $1M/yr
- Stoll: 1 year, 2.2M/yr
- Grebeshkov: 3 years, $2M/yr.
- Pouliot: 3 years, $1M/yr
- Pitkanen: 1year, $4.4M/yr
- Nilsson: 3 years, $2M/yr
Now, don't get your underwear in a knot. I told you this is a guesstimate and welcome input from you, especially the guys like speeds who seem to know this stuff inside out. I've listed 24 players because Roy is a bubble man and in my scenario the Oilers have to get Pitkanen in under the cap in order to keep our favourite concussion off the roster.
Remember now, we're tracking a moving target here and what I've done is to try and establish a starting point. Let's add up the totals:
Taking Roy off the roster, you're looking at just over half a million clearance and flushing Pitkanen gives Lowe $5M of thereabouts to fiddle with during the summer.
My guess? I've estimated high in several areas but it's still probably not enough to keep Pitkanen and help the roster by bringing in a veteran defender and one more forward with a grey hair or two.
Increasingly, this off-season is coming down to "choose your poison": stay the course by signing the RFA's and two current players who are unrestricted, or trade Pitkanen to let some air out of the cap and give Lowe some walking around money to make headlines. Choose carefully. And keep in mind, idling in the driveway the current roster has better balance than 2005 summer, 2006 summer and 2007 summer.
Ideal scenario sees them offload Jarret Stoll for a better plan and get Joni under contract. They need help in other areas but real, "touched by God" talent is dear for a reason. And for crying out loud, sign Horcoff before he becomes the next Ryan Smyth deadline deal.
NOTE: This was written but not posted before the Nilsson signing (reported as a 3yr/5.5M deal) so we can adjust accordingly.

You wonder if your family looks at
you as a disgrace, but you'er mother
takes you and reasures, your very
much loved in grace.
Even though your much to young
for this breathing little thing this

mistake for years to come.
Daddy will you hold me and
Tell me I'll be okay?
Will you whisper in my ear

Will you squeeze me tight,
And call me your little girl?
Daddy will you make me laugh
And still give me the world?
Daddy just hold me close,

I need you more than ever now
Daddy please just hold me near
Hold me tightly in your arms
I'm begging, "please don't let go"
I still need you Daddy
I just thought you'd like to know
Daddy please I want you
Can't you see me cryin'?
Look daddy way down here
Your little girl is dyin'
Daddy please I'm falling now
Wont you hold me tighter?
This monster is pulling me down
Please make this burden lighter
Daddy please come help me
Can't you hear me screaming?

They hate you because your you
They make up lies and call it true
They're fake behind your back
Hoping someday that you'll crack.
They hate you because your real.
no matter what they say you always heal
They're surprised to see you rise,
That you're not affected by all these lies
They hate you because you smile at them
It shows them that your a real gem
You are always true and do your best :)
Sometimes these haters just cant test
They hate you for no reason
Despite it all, you smile
whatever the reason
At the end of the day
All i'm gonna say
All i plan to be
-Sanderline Fleury :)
I am the hypocritical Christian.
I say I follow Christ,
But I'm still consumed by my demons.
I go to church on Sunday,
But I refuse to invite someone back.
I want to serve on mission,
But I'm too afraid to act.
They think I read The Bible,
But I just fall asleep in it.
They think I'm positivity and smiles,
But underneath I'm death and addictions.
They think I'm clean and pure,
But I'm broken and mistaken.
I say I'm not worthy of His love,
But Jesus will never let me be forsaken.
I pray long prayers,
But inside they're empty repetition.
It might look as if my faith is strong,
But my core is too easily shaken.
I say the things I'm supposed to say,
But don't follow His actions or obey.
I speak the truth the church wants to hear,
But deep inside on matters I don't know what to believe.
I walk in shame as if I'm not good enough
To be loved by God and saved through Christ,
But there is nothing I could ever do to earn His peace;
It's a free gift.
I accept;
Now forgiven, changed, and released.
Thank You God,
Thank You Jesus,
Thank You Holy Spirit!
In Jesus' Holy Name,
We pray,
I never knew following dreams could be this lonely,
But up on the hill, looking back, thank God I'm not the old me.
If the tears will fall, let them be;
I believe this is God's plan, follow your dreams.
As I place the pen
on paper
my soul beings
to bleed
upon the pages
my secret longings
hopes and dreams
of which I hope to be,
how I want to reflect me
transpire into the universe
within my poetic lyricism
the warm sweet smoke
of my vega blunt
swirls about me, flickers
in and out of motion
as the vanilla candle nearby
fights the shadows in my room
the cool summer breeze
from my window
carries dancing sinsemilla
fog around me, allowing
my mind
to adventure elsewhere
into the nights abyss
of minutes, turned to hours
I write
pages, of words
scribbling my life, struggles
and fears
Bob Marley and Lauryn Hills
"turn your lights down low"
beat inspirational peacefulness
on my eardrums
my small hands delicately pluck
my imaginary guitar strings
as I join her in a solo, Miss Hill's
magical voice cracks
with emotion, and my soul
tingles with excitement
For creativity flows
within my veins
I breath real music, such as
she, as soon as daylight opens
thine dark brown eyes to see
The poetic flowetry, carries me
and speaks to me
the notes capture my inner
disturbance and desires
until the soundtrack of my day
takes me into Summers night
thoughts of my dreams
of being a published poet
clearly float
into my sight
Then, I sit
as I place my pen
upon the paper
black and white turn to one
and my soul bleeds
onto pages
into an early sun
She's broken.
She just wanted her thoughts to be spoken.
For her words to mean something,
For her words to be affecting.
But she feels worthless.
Her dream was to become an actress,
to inspire others ti achieve their dreams,
but she had fallen in the streams.
She lost all of her hope,
having no way to cope.
She wakes up every morning,
ready to start acting.
She puts on her mask,
hoping for someone to ask,
hoping for someone to realize
how long this has been going on, and apologize.
Yet no one seems to care,
she feels like she shouldn't be there.
Since no one seems to notice her,
that is what she has inferred.
But then someone spoke up,
noticed how she was lost like a pup.
So they decided to help,
she first yelped.
For she never knew how to accept,
she only knew she wept.
Later, she saw light,
and shone bright.
She finally saw that she was someone,
not a no one,
but she meant something.
She was finally acknowledging
Her true beauty,
she found her true duty,
to help others,
and make things better.
The man with the plastic bug in his head
monopolized my dreams last night
in the place that the horsefly of my dignity
finally surrender to the impresario without a fight.
Seven days and 7 hours transplanted in my memorabilia
reminding the rustiness of the purple child
flatterers danced beneath the clouds of melancholy
and morality spreader the master plan inside my mind.
The disinheritance of my immortality the final day
discouraged my desire to see the forbidden love
restored my will to escape
manipulated the deep of the uncertainty above.
Released from the plastic bug in my head
try to cover my yellow child in the purple sky
seven days and seven hours before he dies.
My Parents Did Their Best To Raise Me
As a child, my parents did their best to raise me.
Teaching me about God, because they loved me!
They taught me God's ways,.
This was their intention.
They read the Bible,
with an undivided attention.
Each day I awoke. I was glad mom
and dad where there.
Especially when we gathered
around the table in prayer.
The many times we spent together I haven't forgot.
I'm so thankful for the Christian values taught.
The values helped shape me into
what I am today.
And have helped keep me on "the narrow way."
I believe many of these values
are being discarded.
Even before many families are being started.
A respect for God's word seems
to be a thing of the past.
It's no wonder many relationships don't last.
God's principles must be our daily ambition.
His love must be our rock and a TRUE foundation!
We must seek his purpose
and divine way of living.
It's HIS example that must be our way of giving!
Giving to others kindness and love
that binds us as one.
Through the witness we have in Christ… His son!
May God bless our hearts and
homes in one accord.
As we give our attention
to Jesus Christ our Lord!

Hispanic Food Festival 2005
Our 1st Annual Hispanic Food Festival was held on September 27, 2005. With the help from many of our Hispanic students and faculty we were able to educate and share some of the rich traditions and customs of Mexico and Columbia. In essence, we offered a taste of culture to our students who were able to witness varying artifacts, maps, hand-make dolls and blankets from the two countries as well as sample authentic foods and drinks that was actually prepared by our own Hispanic students. The students were able to listen to salsa music and reggatone songs as well as view a slide show of the different locations and landmarks within the countries. It was a huge success! In 2006 we plan to make it even bigger and better!

GE Beefing Up 3-D Printing Muscle Via Open Engineering "Contests"
BA is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
General Electric (NYSE: GE) is calling on those in the maker community to put their imaginations to work and help it expand the boundaries of what is 3-D printable.
On Tuesday, GE announced at the RAPID 2013 Conference that it's launching two 3-D printing "quests." The first is a 3-D Printing Design Quest for an aircraft engine bracket. The other is a 3-D Printing Production Quest for complex and high-precision parts, with potential applications in healthcare. The first quest is open to all, including individuals. The second quest is aimed at 3-D printing fabricators.
GE's beefing up 3-D printing muscle to trim costs
Many industries, namely aerospace and healthcare, are increasingly adopting 3-D printing to drive down costs.
GE, for instance, has said that it's decreased costs up to 25% on some components by using "additive manufacturing," or 3-D printing, rather than conventional "subtractive manufacturing" methods. This magnitude of cost savings will be separating winners from losers in certain industries. That's why investors in many traditional industries should pay some attention to 3-D printing even if they don't give a whit about the 3-D printer manufacturers.
GE reportedly got a later start in using 3-D printing technology than did Boeing, but has been going gangbusters recently playing catch-up. GE is now the world's largest user of 3-D printing technologies in metals. And its November 2012 purchase of the assets of privately-held Morris Technologies and its sister company, Rapid Quality Manufacturing, gave it a full-scale 3-D production facility in Cincinnati, Ohio, near GE Aviation's Evendale, Ohio, headquarters.
These "quests" are a great way for GE to further strengthen its 3-D printing might. In addition to GE likely receiving some winning design ideas, it will also broaden its pool of potential suppliers and employees. In fact, a specific objective of the second quest is to "broaden GE's supplier network of high-end fabricators with sophisticated production capabilities." Dangling $50,000 (for up to three winners) in front of 3-D fabricators around the globe, while giving them an opportunity to "audition" as a GE supplier seems an effective way to accomplish this objective.
All this begs the questions: Which companies' machines are cranking out all those GE widgets? And what's the industrial metals 3-D printing landscape look like?
Major industrial metals 3-D printing technologies and the players
First, a cheat sheet:
This table is not all-inconclusive. It's just meant to be a decent summary of the major technologies and manufacturers.
The companies acquired by GE, Morris Technologies and RQM, have specialized in using DMLS technology. However, they do have at least one EBM machine.
There are benefits and drawbacks to each technology, so they shouldn't all be considered competitors.
For instance, the first three have titanium capabilities, while ExOne does not. However, ExOne is reportedly working on this. (ExOne's metal capabilities are bronze, 316 Stainless Steel/Bronze, and 420 Stainless Steel/Bronze.) Titanium is a key aerospace industry metal, as it's used for airframes and engine parts. Its uses stem from its very high strength to weight ratio, and good corrosion and fracture-related properties.
On the other hand, Arcam's machines have titanium, several titanium alloys, and a cobalt-chrome alloy (used in orthopedic implants) capabilities, but none of the metal (or other materials, for that matter) capabilities of ExOne's machines.
A Morris Technologies presentation compares DMLS and EBM technologies when using Ti64, the most commonly used titanium alloy. The conclusion: DMLS is best for complex geometries with internal features or passages. EBM is a good choice for bulky complex solid geometries or extremely delicate shapes, especially for production (as opposed to prototypes) due to fast build rates.
The presentation notes the future of metal additive manufacturing will include bigger build envelopes (ExOne has the largest 3-D printers, according to the company), medium to high volume production (Arcam's EBM ranks high here), and micro laser sintering, or MLS, for detail (EOS has developed a MLS technology).
There's little doubt that 3-D printing will be a major disruptive technology. The industry is expected to grow at a 25+% annual clip for the next six or more years.
Potential winners aren't limited to the 3-D printing manufacturers. Companies in various manufacturing industries, such as aerospace, that are aggressive adopters of 3-D printing will benefit from component parts costs savings. Some will also likely benefit from increased innovation as 3-D printing allows for much faster prototyping, thus shortening the new product concept-through-production time frame.
Remember, there's also the acquisition possibilities. 3D Systems is the Pac-Man of the industry, gobbling up companies at a frenetic pace. So, look to it to complement its offering by acquiring one or more 3-D printers focused on higher-end industrial metals.
For GE, the recent financial crisis struck a blow, but management took advantage of the market's dip to make strategic bets in energy. If you're a GE investor, you need to understand how these bets could drive this company to become the world's infrastructure leader. At the same time, you need to be aware of the threats to GE's portfolio. To help, we're offering comprehensive coverage for investors in a premium report on General Electric, in which our industrials analyst breaks down GE's multiple businesses.

Rated 5 out of 5�by hep Great Dodgers Cap for those who don't wear there hat backwards...:) A great looking Dodgers cap with history! Quality is good, and value is excellent! Made for those who know how to wear a "Baseball Hat"...:) July 24, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by dodgersfam awesome hat! I'm loving this hat. I wanted something a little girly but not pink. I hate all the pink hats out there.. I am just not a pink girl. This totally fit the bill. I still got my dodgers blue, but with a little bling. The logo is oversized too compared to a classic Dodgers hat. The quality is above and beyond.. the sequins are put on there very well. You know how sometimes you buy something sparkly and you can tell right away the sequins arent going to stay for long.. not the case at all here. I was unsure about it when I first ordered it, but when it came I was super excited and have been wearing it ever since. If we didn't live in Giants country I'm sure I would be getting tons of compliments! April 18, 2013

BSP PHARMA - FlexNow Joint Formula - 90 Vegicaps
BSP PHARMA Flex Now Joint Formula is a quadruple action joint formula with 100% SheaFlex70. FlexNow has been proven in over 30 clinical trials and studies to impact all four areas required to move freely again: cartilage, inflammation, bone and pain. This next generation of joint care is unlike anything you have experienced. Not a building block, not a cox-inhibitor, not a lubricant. A breakthrough in joint care and relief that allows you to move freely, again. FlexNow with 100% SheaFlex70 is a patented, highly concentrated extract of the shea nut. In clinical studies, Flex Now users realized almost 50% more relief and better function than glucosamine/chondroitin (GS/CS) users.
Why? GS/CS are joint building blocks but only support 30% of joint cartilage (called proteoglycans); FlexNow impacts the other 70% if the cartilage structure (called collagen).
Flex Now: Joint Pain Relief
Is FlexNow right for you? If you experience any joint problems (pain, stiffness, flexibility/mobility issues, tenderness, inflammation), FlexNow is right for you.
If you are using or have tried other products for joint care and have not been fully satisfied, FlexNow is right for you. No need to stop using other joint care products, like glucosamine - add FlexNow to your regimen and move freely again.
Why should you be using FlexNow?
Wild-crafted plants are carefully gathered from their natural, wild habitat, where they have not been sprayed with pesticides or fertilized with synthetic fertilizers. Wild-crafting is a sustainable agricultural process that respects the living plant. Only the shea fruit is taken during harvest; the tree is left unharmed.
Shea trees grow wild in West Africa, where all of FlexNow's shea nuts are grown. Local villagers collect ripe shea fruit which has fallen to the ground, process a portion for local use and sell the bulk of the shea nuts to our company, food companies and skin care companies.
The UN Development Programme has established education and training programs to support the commercialization and management of the wild-craft farming, harvesting, processing and sale of shea fruit and shea nuts. In particular, the Programme has helped tens of thousands of villagers, particularly West African women, to become independent and improve their economic position.
When compared with other joint care interventions, whether pharmaceutical, OTC or natural, FlexNow with 100% SheaFlex70 has been clinically proven to result in more relief and better function.
FlexNow™ with 100% SheaFlex70™ is clinically proven to reduce breakdown in joint collagen/cartilage by 44%.
Taken together, glucosamine/chondroitin and FlexNow™ with 100% SheaFlex70™ target 100% of your joint health.
You may be among the majority of joint-pain sufferers who have not experienced 100% relief from taking glucosamine alone. That doesn't mean you should stop taking your glucosamine – it's a key building block for chondroitin. What's essential to remember is that chondroitin is deposited inside your body's collagen network. If your collagen network isn't strong, your joints don't have a place to deposit the chondroitin. Which would explain why glucosamine alone isn't always enough.
How it works
When the body is injured, diseased or infected with a pathogen, the cells of the body release cytokines. Cytokines are protein, hormone-like messenger molecules that allow cells to communicate, altering one another's function and regulating cell proliferation. In particular, cytokines dictate the strength and targets of inflammatory and immune response. Cytokines target the area of concern and increase vascularity (pathways for the blood system — allowing the body access to fight and repair), resulting in inflammation.
When we experience joint discomfort, pain, stiffness, loss of mobility or flexibility, one or all of the following are root causes:
Disease, repeated joint stress or repeated joint issues often result in a destructive inflammation cascade:
