Our Town always has a big 4th of July parade with every thing from veterans, a Marine Band, little league, swim teams, churches floats, high school bands, scouts, and the lawn mower drill team from one of the local homeowner's assoc. My husband will be riding his bike as part of the East Bay regional park district volunteers. I will be attending with my daughter and her family.Afterwards we always go to my son's for a pool party and barbecue. My son and daughter in law supply the main dish usually chicken, hot dogs, and hamburgers. The rest of the guests bring everything else. I'll be bringing home made ice cream and cookies/ brownies.
Sounds like you all are going to have a great time over the holiday. We're just planning on spending a quiet(hopefully) day at home and maybe cook out. We've had people setting off fireworks for over two weeks around here. A little quiet would be a good thing lol.

Metro-east officials say the death of a Madsion, Illinois man should serve as a reminder of the dangers of extreme heat.
Madison County Coroner Stephen Nonn announced Monday that 56 year old Darold Mays died of heat stroke. May suffered from heart and lung disease that made him more vulnerable, but hi body temperature was over 101 when he had been found dead in an alley in the 1300 block of Klein Avenue in Venice.
Family members say that Mays was developmentally disabled and was known to venture out into the community to collect aluminum cans.
Nonn says with temperatures forecast to be in the mid and upper 90s this week, it's important to be conscious of the heat's toll on healthy individuals during normal activities, but also to keep an eye on friends and family who may be more susceptible to the heat because of age or chronic health issues.

Lenses / Re: 24-70 II slight clicking sound when zooming« on: October 26, 2013, 05:17:06 PM »
The 24-70 II I purchased recently from Amazon had a build date of Oct. 2012. It did not make any clicking sounds when zooming; however, it appears that it may have a centering issue. When I compared shots of the 24-70 II vs. my 24-105, the corners of the 24-105 were sharper than the 24-70 II at equivalent focal lengths and apertures (save for at 24mm). Since this should definitely not be the case, back in the box it went. One more thing to keep in mind when evaluating your new lens as it seems many people are having issues with their recent purchase.

Narrow your search
The devices on this page represent the best among their respective categories.
The Roku 1 offers the same excellent experience that's found on other Roku boxes at a new low price, but there aren't many reasons to choose it over the new Streaming Stick or step-up Roku boxes.
For $100 you'll be hard-pressed to find another portable Bluetooth speaker that delivers as much bass as the G-Boom.
Despite a novel construction and scuff-proof exterior, the LG G Flex's doesn't flex enough muscle against the Samsung Galaxy Round or the Note 3.
The LG G Pro 2 delivers plenty of power, a huge and lovely screen, and a feature-packed camera, but the Galaxy Note 3's stylus and superior styling give it the edge.
If you're looking for a compact rugged, water-resistant Bluetooth speaker, the Braven BRV-1 is worth considering now that its street price has dropped to closer to $100.
The company announced its newest interchangeable-lens model everywhere but the US.
Pricing not available
With its speedy and reliable performance, the LG G Pad 8.3 is a solid small-sized tablet, but for non-Verizon customers, the smoother and less expensive Google Nexus 7 is the better choice.
The curvaceous LG G Flex goes on sale on 1 February at Carphone Warehouse, and you can get your order in now.
The G-Dock and G-Drive introduce a new level of flexibility in external storage, and performance is fast.
You can't beat the price of the Moto G, but the more expensive and more powerful Nexus 5 remains your shrewdest unlocked Android option.

Police say people smoking pot, doing taxes at Clay H&R Block
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Authorities say there was more going on at a Clay County H&R Block than tax filings.
The branch's district manager was arrested Monday after State Police received complaints people were smoking marijuana while doing taxes at the Main Street location.
"We got a call that there were people down at H&R Block in Clay doing drugs and doing taxes," said Trooper B.E. Young.
Cpl. R.R. Cervera and Trooper B.K. Smith looked in the windows of the office and saw a man and woman inside, later identified as Clarence Stone Jr., 40, of Lizemores, and Tisha Tanner, according to a complaint filed in Clay Magistrate Court.
Troopers knocked on the door. They say a stoned Stone greeted them. They immediately noticed the "heavy smell of marijuana burning" inside the business, Young said.
"When (Cervera) asked the guy if they were smoking marijuana he admitted they were," Young said.
Officers searched Stone and found a plastic bag containing what looked to be marijuana and a plastic bag containing suspected meth in his shirt pocket, the complaint said. Troopers found Tanner in a separate office and searched her as well. They then brought her to the front of the building.
They asked Tanner if she had any drugs or weapons in her car. She said she did not, but Stone told officers he had more marijuana in his coat in Tanner's car and at his parents' house in Indore, the complaint said.
Troopers went to Stone's parents' home and found another bag of marijuana.
Stone later told troopers some of the marijuana was homegrown. He said he planted about a dozen seeds behind his parents' house. Stone said he sold joints, several times in the past for a small amount of money.
Stone has nine years experience with the company, including two years of office management experience, according to the H&R Block website
Calls to the Clay branch office went unanswered.
Young said Tanner was not charged. Stone was charged with delivery of a controlled substance, cultivation and simple possession of meth.
He was free on bond.

Local boat and jet ski rentals are available and the area is known for its great offshore fishing. Martin County is called the Sailfish Capital of the World! Offshore/Inshore fishing anglers can also catch Mahi-Mahi, Grouper, Tarpoon, Swordfish, Pompano, Sea Trout, Drum, Flounder, Redfish, Snapper, Cobia, and even Bonefish! There are many local Charter boats available for rent, or you can just fish off our dock! Lots of local ( Free ) boat ramps are nearby as well. You will find great nature parks, throughout Martin county and the area is known as the Treasure Coast from the fleet of Spanish Galleons lost in a hurricane off the area shores. Plenty of treasure may still be lurking for the diver or snorkler to discover. Many local museums and nature centers, from Vero Beach ( 20 miles North) to Jupiter (17 miles South ), include the Oceanographic Institute in Stuart, and the Manatee Center in Ft. Pierce. Martin county is very proud of its tradition of slow growth and environmental conservation.

Due to the heavy rain, the city says it may not be able to issue its report until early next week.
Neighbors with questions can call the Public Works Department during normal business hours at 904-825-1040 after business hours call 904-825-1044.

Behavioral targeting
|This article may be too technical for most readers to understand. (February 2011)
|It has been suggested that Behavioral retargeting be merged into this article. (Discuss) Proposed since December 2013.
Behavioral Targeting refers to a range of technologies and techniques used by online website publishers and advertisers which allows them to increase the effectiveness of their campaigns by capturing data generated by website and landing page visitors. When it is done without the knowledge of users, it may be considered a breach of browser security and illegal by many countries' privacy, data protection and consumer protection laws.
When a consumer visits a web site, the pages they visit, the amount of time they view each page, the links they click on, the searches they make and the things that they interact with, allow sites to collect that data, and other factors, create a 'profile' that links to that visitor's web browser. As a result, site publishers can use this data to create defined audience segments based upon visitors that have similar profiles. When visitors return to a specific site or a network of sites using the same web browser, those profiles can be used to allow advertisers to position their online ads in front of those visitors who exhibit a greater level of interest and intent for the products and services being offered. On the theory that properly targeted ads will fetch more consumer interest, the publisher (or seller) can charge a premium for these ads over random advertising or ads based on the context of a site.
Behavioral marketing can be used on its own or in conjunction with other forms of targeting based on factors like geography, demographics or contextual web page content. It's worth noting that many practitioners also refer to this process as "Audience Targeting".
Onsite Behavioral Targeting[edit]
Behavioral targeting techniques may also be applied to any online property on the premise that it either improves the visitor experience or it benefits the online property, typically through increased conversion rates or increased spending levels. The early adopters of this technology/philosophy were editorial sites such as HotWired,[1][2] online advertising[3] with leading online ad servers,[4] retail or other e-commerce website as a technique for increasing the relevance of product offers and promotions on a visitor by visitor basis. More recently, companies outside this traditional e-commerce marketplace have started to experiment with these emerging technologies.
The typical approach to this starts by using web analytics to break-down the range of all visitors into a number of discrete channels. Each channel is then analyzed and a virtual profile is created to deal with each channel. These profiles can be based around Personas that gives the website operators a starting point in terms of deciding what content, navigation and layout to show to each of the different personas. When it comes to the practical problem of successfully delivering the profiles correctly this is usually achieved by either using a specialist content behavioral platform or by bespoke software development. Most platforms identify visitors by assigning a unique id cookie to each and every visitor to the site thereby allowing them to be tracked throughout their web journey, the platform then makes a rules-based decision about what content to serve.
Again, this behavioral data can be combined with known demographic data and a visitor's past purchase history in order to produce a greater degree of data points that can be used for targeting.
Self-learning onsite behavioral targeting systems will monitor visitor response to site content and learn what is most likely to generate a desired conversion event. Some good content for each behavioral trait or pattern is often established using numerous simultaneous multivariate tests. Onsite behavioral targeting requires relatively high level of traffic before statistical confidence levels can be reached regarding the probability of a particular offer generating a conversion from a user with a set behavioral profile. Some providers have been able to do so by leveraging its large user base, such as Yahoo!. Some providers use a rules based approach, allowing administrators to set the content and offers shown to those with particular traits.
Network Behavioral Targeting[edit]
Advertising Networks use behavioral targeting in a different way than individual sites. Since they serve many advertisements across many different sites, they are able to build up a picture of the likely demographic makeup of internet users.[5] An example would be a user seen on football sites, business sites and male fashion sites. A reasonable guess would be to assume the user is male. Demographic analyses of individual sites provided either internally (user surveys) or externally (Comscore \ netratings) allow the networks to sell audiences rather than sites.[6] Although advertising networks used to sell this product, this was based on picking the sites where the audiences were. Behavioral targeting allows them to be slightly more specific about this.
Theoretical Research on Behavioral Targeting[edit]
In the work titled An Economic Analysis of Online Advertising Using Behavioral Targeting,[7] Chen and Stallaert (2014) study the economic implications when an online publisher engages in behavioral targeting. They consider that the publisher auctions off an advertising slot and is paid on a cost-per-click basis. Chen and Stallaert (2014) identify the factors that affect the publisher's revenue, the advertisers' payoffs, and social welfare. They show that revenue for the online publisher in some circumstances can double when behavioral targeting is used. However, increased revenue for the publisher is not guaranteed: in some cases, the prices of advertising and hence the publisher's revenue can be lower, depending on the degree of competition and the advertisers' valuations. They identify two effects associated with behavioral targeting: a competitive effect and a propensity effect. The relative strength of the two effects determines whether the publisher's revenue is positively or negatively affected. Chen and Stallaert (2014) also demonstrate that, although social welfare is increased and small advertisers are better off under behavioral targeting, the dominant advertiser might be worse off and reluctant to switch from traditional advertising.
Privacy and Security Concerns[edit]
Many online users and advocacy groups are concerned about privacy issues around doing this type of targeting. This is a controversy that the behavioral targeting industry is trying to contain through education, advocacy and product constraints to keep all information non-personally identifiable or to obtain permission from end-users.[8] AOL created animated cartoons in 2008 to explain to its users that their past actions may determine the content of ads they see in the future.[9] Canadian academics at the University of Ottawa Canadian Internet Policy and Public Interest Clinic have recently demanded the federal privacy commissioner to investigate online profiling of Internet users for targeted advertising.[10]
The European Commission (via commissioner Meglena Kuneva) has also raised a number of concerns related to online data collection (of personal data), profiling and behavioral targeting, and is looking for "enforcing existing regulation".[11]
In October 2009 it was reported that a recent survey carried out by University of Pennsylvania and the Berkeley Center for Law and Technology found that a large majority of US internet users rejected the use of behavioral advertising.[12] Several research efforts by academicians and others have demonstrated that data that supposedly anonymized can be used to identify real individuals.
In March 2011, it was reported that the online ad industry would begin working with the Council of Better Business Bureaus to start policing itself as part of its program to monitor and regulate how marketers track consumers online, also known as behavioral advertising.[13]

A retrospective is an agile development term for a team meeting at the end of a development cycle where the team determines what things were done well, what things could have been better, and what things they were going to try to do better in the next cycle. It's a great way for teams to celebrate what they did correctly and identify the things that they need to improve on.
Given the state of flux that the video game industry is in right now I thought it would be an interesting idea to do several small retrospective with folks from around the industry with the end goal is to develop a holistic view of the state of the video game.
The format is fairly simple. We've asked each company the same four questions about what they did great last year, what they could have done better, and what they plan to do in the coming year. We then asked them how they thought the entire industry answered those questions. To keep things interesting we also asked a few company specific questions too.
We'll be running a retrospective each day for the next few weeks. We've got a nice variety of opinions ranging from game developers to publishers to hardware manufactures and everyone in between. This is one of the more ambitious projects we've ever done and we think you'll enjoy seeing the wide spectrum of opinions on the industry.
Today we are talking to Max Schaefer, the CEO of Runic. Runic is one of the great success stories of the last few years as they were able to come out of nowhere and deliver Torchlight a fantastic update of the third person action RPG. They are currently working on Torchlight II, which should be out later this year.
Looking back at the last year what were the things that Runic did right? What things could you have done better?
For the whole of 2011, we've been buried in Torchlight 2 development. While the project is turning out better than any of us could have imagined, we are nevertheless struck by just how taxing making this sort of game can be, both mentally and physically. Torchlight 2 was supposed to be "the multiplayer version of Torchlight 1". But of course, the natural tendency is to want to push every part of the game, from music to level design to character design to combat system, to UI, to a new level. That takes time and patience, and we're not patient people.
What do you think went well for the game industry in 2011? What do you think the industry could have done better in 2011?
In 2011, we got Skyrim, KTOR, Minecraft, Portal 2, Uncharted 3, a great year at PAX and E3, and a lot more cool stuff coming in 2012. We could still improve as an industry in pushing innovation more than $200million projects. We stifle ourselves and our customers with over-produced, 5-year development, derivative games.
Looking ahead, what are you most excited about from Runic in 2012 outside of Torchlight II? What's the one thing you're planning on doing now that you weren't doing in 2011?
All I care about right now is releasing Torchlight II. But I also am truly excited to sit down with the guys and figure out what we do next. The one thing we're planning on doing that we aren't doing now? Rest, relaxation, and planting some new gaming seeds and seeing what happens.
What are you looking forward to most in 2012 from an industry standpoint? What should the industry do better in 2012?
I'll get in trouble for this, but I look forward to the end of boxes and disks. Kill them with fire for all I care. The retail market has historically starved developers and narrowed the market for available games. Now we need to take advantage of services like Steam with innovative pricing, business models, and games.
What's the one thing that makes Runic different than all of the other developers out there?
Runic has an independent spirit, a love for game-making, a respect for our customers, and a fierce desire to stay small, nimble, and responsive. We're not trying to be the next EA, or the next Blizzard. We don't want an empire. We just want to carve out a niche where we can provide great games with incredible value.
We know it's a bit cheesy but where do you see Runic in 5 years? Will we be on Torchlight IV by then or do you see the company branching out into new IP's?
In five years, I'd love to see us with 2 or 3 IPs, all of them semi-active, but none of them in constant development. We want to keep doing one thing at a time as a company, but we would like to so something other than Torchlight too. I expect us to still be about 30 people, and probably in the same office.

Just Wow: 11-Year-Old Boy Stripped Naked By Young Girls! (Screaming For Mommy)
Description: "A Fort Myers mother says she feels powerless after her 11-year-old son was pinned down at his neck and stripped naked by two middle school girls. At first glance the minute-long YouTube video looks like kids playing. But it soon takes a disturbing turn as the boy cries out for help, humiliated and pinned down to the ground. "Mommy!," he yells. The video, which has since been taken down, shows two Dunbar Middle School girls holding the boy down in broad daylight, inside a gated community. The boy begs the girls to stop as the rip off his bathing suit, leaving him naked lying on the ground. The title of the video, which was online for more than 24 hours, says the boy is getting "owned." "I'm surprised these girls can just do that and get away with it," said the boy's mother. "Or there are no repercussions.""

AUSTIN -- Saturday morning, families from Austin, the nation and many other countries all mingled together to enjoy what the city's first ever F1 Fan Fest had to offer.
Elma Schoten and her family traveled from El Paso to Austin to attend F1 weekend.
"I have three kids and they've already enjoyed the cars, taking pictures of cars and getting their face painted," Schoten said. "So I think it's been really great and geared to the children and the adults of course."
Local food and t-shirt booths enjoyed brisk business. And as the sun set, excitement grew as thousands of F1 fans came ready to party.
"If it's like Montreal last year there should be lots going on," said Nicolas Lazarus, visiting from Miami.
His friend Sean Emmett added, "Everyone's been really friendly and it's been well organized so far."
As the crowds admire set after set of exotic wheels, wheels of a different kind are rolling through downtown. Pedicab companies have all their employees working the streets this weekend, hoping F1 fans will hand over some cold hard cash.
"It's kind of like a typical weekend ," said pedicab driver Nick Balaile. "People wanted to get from a to b because it was so cold."
Adam Finton with Red Devil Rides said he thinks business will pick up on Sunday, which is expected to be Fan Fest's busiest night.
"I pretty much equate it to supply and demand, when there's a lot of people taking rides you can charge more as long as you negotiate the price and they agree upon it," Finton said. "Last night was a little disappointing from what we were expecting. I actually had one guy from Britain tell me he thought we were homeless gypsies."
Fan Fest shuts down at 2 a.m. and will reopen at 10:30 Sunday morning. More than 200,000 people are expected to attend the event.

A Conversation with Rolando Reyes, Sr.
The creator of Puros Indios and Cuba Aliados cigars speaks to Cigar Aficionado.
David Savona
From the Print Edition:
"24", Jan/Feb 2006
Few of the men who run cigar companies are great cigar rollers. Rolando Reyes Sr. is the exception. His talented hands have worked cigar tobacco since he was a child in Cuba. After he learned how to roll simple parejos, or round cigars, his tutors recognized his potential and taught him how to craft figurados, the complex shaped cigars that are the most challenging to create. In 1975, he left Cuba, taking his skills to the United States and, later, to Honduras, creating the Cuba Aliados and Puros Indios brands. Many credit him with bringing the diadema shape to the American cigar market.
Cuba Aliados was a hot brand, but a lawsuit between Reyes and his distributor, Cigars by Santa Clara N.A. kept it off the market for most of the cigar boom. A recent settlement returned the brand to Reyes.
The 82-year-old Reyes recently sat down with senior editor David Savona for a comprehensive discussion about cigars, tobacco and restoring Cuba Aliados to its former stature. His grandson, Alex Diez, translated.
David Savona: Let's discuss how you got started in this business. How old were you when you came to the United States?
Rolando Reyes Sr.: I was 51. I came 30 years ago.
Q: Did you open a cigar factory right away?
A: In Union City [New Jersey]. It's still there. It's still open. We have a retail store. That's a part of me I don't want to part with. I was working there, but it wasn't enough production for the demand, so I came to Miami. And in Miami there wasn't enough either, so I went to Honduras.
Q: Tell me about Cuba Aliados—didn't the name originate from an old bus company in Cuba?
A: It's the same name—the bus line used to be called Aliados, and I named the company Aliados. It means "allied."
Q: When did you first start making cigars?
A: In Cuba. I was nine years old.
Q: Were you working at home?
A: I worked in a small factory, where I wasn't only being taught how to roll cigars, but how to handle everything you had to do. They taught me everything, so I could learn how to start rolling.
Q: Where in Cuba was this?
A: Zulueta. From there I went to a factory in Remedios called Aguilar and then I went to Havana to work in José Piedra. And from there, I went to H. Upmann. The boss at H. Upmann was a friend.
Q: Were you known as a very good roller in those days?
A: Yes.

The foods that can help alleviate cramps, bloating, and that overall icky feeling.
-Carolyn Gregoire, BettyConfidential.com
We all know the feeling-you're bloated, breaking out, and have killer cramps that make sitting at your desk all day nearly unbearable. Plus, your killer mood swings just caused you to yell at the old lady who bumped into you on the subway. Yes, ladies, PMS is no picnic.
But, before you decide to throw up your hands and hit the couch with a chick flick and a pint of Haagen Daz, consider these natural ways to combat PMS symptoms and feel your best during the worst time of the month. Whether your symptoms are debilitating or merely a slight annoyance, PMS doesn't have to interfere with your daily life.
PMS is largely caused (and exacerbated) by a deficiency of vitamins and minerals in the body, so it can be remedied by eating properly. In addition to getting plenty of sleep and exercise, these natural PMS-fighting foods will help you kick your PMS to the curb:
1. Magnesium
Studies have shown that women experiencing excessive PMS symptoms often have a deficiency of the mineral magnesium in their bodies. Eating foods high in magnesium helps to fight bloating by keeping water retention to a minimum. Plus, magnesium works to regulate your serotonin and hormone levels, which stabilizes your mood and can help keep the PMS blues (and mood swings) at bay. To get your daily dose, try pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, peanuts, and cashews.
2. Calcium
Studies have also shown that getting plenty of calcium has beneficial affects on a woman's menstrual cycle. Getting your daily allotment of calcium can decrease bloating, cramps, irritability and mood swings. Try incorporating more low-fat dairy into your diet with yogurt or cottage cheese. For those who are lactose intolerant, almonds and salmon are also great sources of calcium. But, be careful not to overdo it with the dairy-too much calcium can actually hinder the body's ability to absorb magnesium.
3. Vitamins A, B6 and E
These essential vitamins are super troopers when it comes to fighting a variety of PMS symptoms. When you're about to get your period and feeling less than stellar, increasing your intake of vitamin B6 -- it's one of the most surefire ways to alleviate a number of symptoms. Vitamin B6, is necessary to regulate the body's estrogen levels because it reduces blood estrogen and increases testosterone (too much estrogen causes mood swings, anxiety and an inability to focus). B6 also plays a crucial role in increasing the effectiveness of magnesium, so it also helps with bloating and muscle aches. To make sure you're getting enough B6, take a B complex supplement and add B6-rich foods such as bananas, spinach, potatoes (with the skins on), bell peppers and whole grains. Vitamins A and E are not only awesome for your complexion, they also help battle PMS by decreasing irritability and alleviating breast tenderness.
4. Omega-3 Fatty Acids
These healthy fats have been shown to reduce cramping caused by menstruation, and generally aid in lessening PMS symptoms, especially when combined with vitamin E. Salmon, tuna, olive oil, flaxseeds, walnuts and soybeans are all excellent sources of omega-3.
5. Manganese
Found in pineapple, brown rice and spinach, this mineral has been shown to increase mood and decrease water retention.
Now that you know the foods that help PMS, make sure to steer clear of these PMS-boosters that will only make you more bloated, crampy and moody. Ick!
Now that you know the foods that help PMS, make sure to steer clear of these PMS-boosters that will only make you more bloated, crampy and moody. Ick!
-Skip the soda and coffee! Caffeine can increase bloating, worsen skin problems, and contribute to anxiety and irritability. And, unsurprisingly, it doesn't help with premenstrual insomnia either.
-Salt also contributes greatly to water retention and can dehydrate the skin, causing breakouts.
-Stay away from the sweets! Sugar depletes those valuable B vitamins and can contribute to moodiness.

Office of Historic Preservation
Phone: (210) 215-9274
Owners of historic properties in San Antonio may be eligible for certain incentives for rehabilitation either through local or federal programs.
Local Tax Exemption for Substantial Rehabilitation
A tax exemption is available for designated local landmarks and properties within local historic districts that under go a substantial rehabilitation. Substantial rehabilitation includes improvements that extend the life of a building such as roof, foundation, and siding work; electrical, plumbing, and HVAC system work; other structural work; and interior work. Following substantial rehabilitation of residential properties, City property taxes are frozen at the assessed value prior to rehabilitation for up to 10 years. Substantially rehabilitated commercial properties are eligible for the 5 Zero/5 Fifty tax exemption: no City property taxes are owed for the first five (5) years, and for the next five (5) years the City taxes are assessed at 50% of a post-rehabilitation appraisal. The tax exemption for substantial rehabilitation remains with the property regardless of change of ownership or sale of the property.
Local Tax Exemption for Owner-Occupied Residences in New Historic Districts
All residential properties occupied by the property owner in
newly designated local historic districts at the time of
designation receive a 20%
exemption on their City property taxes for 10 years. The
exemption can be extended for an additional five (5) years for a
total of 15 years for owners who remain in the same house for
the entire period of the exemption.
Rehabilitation Programs for Historic Preservation
The Office of Historic Preservation is partnering with the San Antonio Conservation Society and Merced Housing Texas for an Acquisition/Rehabilitation/Resale Revolving Fund. The purpose of the program is to purchase and rehabilitate locally-designated historic homes in order to combat the deterioration of historic housing stock and the erosion of neighborhood fabric that occurs when properties are demolished.
A second program is the Owner-Occupied Rehabilitation Loan Program, which is offered through the City's Housing and Neighborhood Services Department. This program helps low to moderate-income property owners with their restoration and rehabilitation projects through a combination of loans and grants. For information, contact the Office of Historic Preservation at 215-9274.
San Antonio Conservation Society Grants Program
Using the proceeds from its annual presentation of "A Night In Old San Antonio®" (NIOSA®) and in keeping with its mission, the San Antonio Conservation Society accepts applications for grants to individuals and organizations for restoration or rehabilitation of residential or commercial structures in the San Antonio area that are at least 50 years old.
Examples of grant projects funded in past
years include restoration or rehabilitation of roofs, foundations,
windows, plaster, facades, chimneys, front doors, porches and
stonework. Since 2000, the Society has awarded $1,878,265 to
individuals and organizations through its grants programs.
The Society also accepts grant applications for
educational projects.

I have a question, does anyone know if Comcast started to encrypt the local HD Channels? I used to get them through my computer's tuner, and I checked today, and I don't get them anymore. I don't know when I stopped getting them, but I am curious if it is a problem for me or everyone has the same issue.
Thanks, Sean
Some PC tuners, like the Hauppauge HVR1600, tend to lock up at times, requiring pulling the power cord for a few minutes to restart the tuner.

Nancy Atherton's follow-up to her recent New York Times bestseller sees the sleepy village of Finch set aflutter by a bewitching mystery from its pastLast year, the otherworldly sleuth's devoted fans secured a place on the New York Times bestseller list for Nancy Atherton's Aunt Dimity and the Family Tree. Now Lori and Aunt Dimity are back on the list—and this time, they're on a witch-hunt.
At first glance, the unassuming Mrs. Amelia Thistle is a disappointment to the villagers of Finch, but Lori Shepherd isn't fooled by the new arrival's bland persona. Amelia is a world-famous artist, traveling incognito, and, after unearthing a fragment of a family diary hinting that Mistress Meg, the Mad Witch of Finch, might be one of her ancestors, she's come to Finch in search of the truth.
