HUD awards $10 million to Colorado housing authorities
Housing authorities in Northern Colorado received $441,701. The bulk of that money went to the Fort Collins Housing Authority, which received $188,756, and the Housing Authority of the City of Greeley, which received $112,287.
The grants were funded through HUD's Capital Fund Program, which provides funding annually to public housing authorities to make alterations such as replacing plumbing and electrical systems.
"HUD is committed to improving public housing and creating communities that thrive," said Rick Garcia, HUD's Rocky Mountain Region's Administrator. "These funds help fill the gap for public housing agencies throughout the Rocky Mountain region to make enhancements and create more affordable housing."

Microsoft Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 IE10+ KMS-activation (x86/x64/ENG/RUS/2013) | 4.15 GB
his assembly is the successor of the assembly Microsoft Windows 7 SP1 RUS-ENG x86-x64-8in1-KMS-activation (AIO). It is distinguished from its predecessor is that the current assembly includes updates as of May 21, 2013, plus some extra chips. And, of course, you have noticed that in the current assembly I have been limited to the editorship of Enterprise, in order to fit on a standard disc release DVD5.
Release of this assembly, meanwhile, does not mean that its predecessor lost relevance. For those who prefer to work with assemblies as close as possible to the original distribution, it is still relevant! In developing the same assembly that is presented here, I walked away a little from its principles include the reluctance of the foreign application. More on that below ..
Read more about activation
For automatic activation of the system established by the assembly, it does not need the Internet - everything happens automatically in offline mode. This is possible because the basis of the activator is KMS-keygen from ZWT, which works on the principle of KMS-activated, but without the need for Internet access.
In the target system provides a mechanism for reactivation. It can be initiated by running the label "Windows Activation" in the start menu, Windows (Start Menu-> All Programs). When you run the activator, you get the option to activate the system by a single start a local KMS-server by installing a local KMS-server as a system service or with remote KMS-server.
In the first case, the activator service starts KMS-server, run for the activation and cleaned up after themselves. Second, almost all the same, but the KMS-server will hang on as a service. In this case, the activation of Windows will restart without user intervention. By default, the activation request will be repeated every 7 days, with a failure of the request will be retried after 120 minutes. Less of this method is that the service is constantly hanging in the RAM eats off about 2 MB of memory. The third way is left as an alternative capricious local KMS-server and requires access to the Internet for their work.
As I said above, a local KMS-server is very capricious (it's not my fault - it is responsible for the initial product from ZWT). Very often, when generating a response to the demand, he gives the wrong code. To reduce the number of incorrect responses to a minimum, it is desirable to disable the activation of anti-virus and firewall (including built-in axis). Typically, the activation occurs after 2-6 attempts. If the problem persists, try to reset the trial period (slmgr.vbs-rearm).

Interesting to see Frisco, I guess. But if Maxie should resent anyone, it is him. Felicia was there for almost all of Maxie's life, no matter what the writers try to spin. Frisco, on the other hand, was not.ReplyDelete
I am unsure. If he comes back, we should get an appearance by Felicia, too. I would hope.
I love all the returns and assume they will be short term. But it's almost too many things changing at once.ReplyDelete
I'd like to see Maxie tell off Frisco. At this point, Mac is Maxie's father. He's been her father through thick or thin. Mac stayed with both of Frisco's children even when their mother left.ReplyDelete
Frisco and Felicia are my favorite couple!! It would be awesome if they both came back!!! Felicia will back soon at the end of this month, c'mon Jack!!!!!!!!ReplyDelete
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE BRING BACK FRISCO. I LOVE HIM AND FELICIA AND THEIR ADVENTURES. A FEW WEEKS AGO I WATCHED ON YOUTUBE POSTING OF HOW THEY MET AND THEIR ADVENTURE WITH THE RING. I WAS HOOKED AGAIN!ReplyDelete

Towson Falls To Third-Seeded Ohio State, 16-6, in First Round of Men's Lacrosse NCAA Tournament
Columbus, Ohio (May 12, 2013) – No. 3 Ohio State held No. 17 Towson to two goals in the second half en route to a 16-6 win in the first round of the NCAA Tournament Sunday afternoon at Ohio State.
Towson (10-8) scored two of the first three goals before Ohio State (12-4) asserted itself, scoring four straight goals and holding an 8-4 lead at halftime. The Buckeyes' defense improved in the second half, holding Towson scoreless for 14:46 over the second and third quarters and for 12:27 over the third and fourth quarters.
Junior Andrew Hodgson led the Tigers with a hat trick, while senior Matt Hughes posted two goals for the second straight game. Logan Schuss had a game-high six points on three goals and three assists for Ohio State. Senior Andrew Wascavage made eight saves for the Tigers, while Greg Dutton stopped seven shots for the Buckeyes.
"I want to commend Ohio State on an excellent game today," said Head Coach Shawn Nadelen. "That said, we can't make as many mistakes as we did today, we can't allow them so many opportunities as far as possession times. They are a very balanced team and a very dangerous offense.
"I'm extremely proud of our team this year, and how they competed from the start to the finish. We didn't start strong, but we finished strong. We were one of 16 teams to play in the NCAA tournament. A lot of people didn't give us a chance, but our guys believed in themselves and put in the effort to get us to this point, back into the conversation as being a top team in the country."
The Tigers won the opening face-off and worked the ball quickly down into the Buckeyes' defensive zone. Sophomore Greg Cuccinello moved down the left side of the field and passed to Hughes who was waiting right in front of the cage. Hughes continued his stellar end-of-season play, posting the game's first goal at 14:13.
Just under five minutes later, Schuss equalized for OSU unassisted at 9:16. The Tigers got strong play from their defense in the first quarter, particularly sophomore JoJo Ostrander and junior Jordan Fortmann. A caused turnover by Ostrander late in the third quarter led to a goal from Hodgson, off a feed from sophomore Justin Mabus, that gave Towson a 2-1 lead at 5:37 in the first quarter.
OSU's King knotted the score at 2-2 with under two minutes remaining in the first quarter, and Carter Brown gave the Buckeyes the lead with 29 seconds left in the quarter, 3-2. Ohio State picked up a controversial David Planning goal as time expired on the first frame to hold a 4-2 advantage.
A series of quick passes led to King's second goal for the Buckeyes at 14:09 in the second, but Towson's Hodgson answered with his second of the game at 13:31 to inch the Tigers closer, 5-3. King's third goal and a fast break tally from Dominique Alexander at 5:40 pushed the Buckeyes' margin to four, 7-3. Hodgson then notched his second hat trick of the season with 2:06 left in the half. But confusion over the timer and possession led to another Ohio State goal, and the Buckeyes held an 8-4 advantage at the half.
Ohio State went on a tear in the second half, outscoring the Tigers 8-2 over the two frames. Cuccinello scored a goal at 2:52 in the third quarter and Hughes added his second at 5:26 in the fourth for Towson.
Towson finishes the season at 10-8, 4-2 in the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA).

Deal Over
DealChicken gets a hankering for Mexican more often than you might imagine. Some days, nothing's better on a cold Minneapolis day than a bucket of salsa, a crisp bowl of guacamole or an overflowing plate of super nachos.

With today's deal, you can do it all for half off!
La Que Buena is a Mexican restaurant on East Lake Street in Powderhorn. If you haven't been to South Minneapolis in a while, you can easily get to the highly walkable Lake Street area via car, bus, light rail and the Midtown Greenway.

Product Information
Operators told 5.11 that they wanted a hard knuckle glove, the HardTime was their answer. Starting with the excellent fit and performance of the Tac AK2, we then added Kevlar and articulated hard knuckle plates. Instead of a single piece covering all four knuckles, two separate plates are used and each covers two knuckles for improved comfort, dexterity, and performance. Tough thermoplastic plates are padded on the side facing the hand and covered with a durable subdued laminate finish on the business side. When wearing these gloves, you're going to have to resist the temptation to punch the nearest wall!

Spring Trend: Low-Heeled Sandals
Posted Feb 17 // Miró Cassetta
A trend I'm loving for spring is a great sandal with a low heel or wedge. The look is much more polished than a flat sandal or flip-flop but way more comfortable than heels. Try one of these pairs for brunch with your girlfriends, running weekend errands, or even date night!
Personally I'm lusting after the orange sandals or the brown leather at the bottom right. Pop over to Barton Creek Mall and let me know which pair you pick!
- Lara Sandal at Banana Republic
- Audra Sandal by Tory Burch at Nordstrom
- Lillian Suede Wedges at J.Crew
- Double T-Strap Wedges at Express
- Evie Metallic Sandals at J.Crew
- Rosa Sandal by Via Spiga at Nordstrom

Transition from Winter to Spring with Pastels
Posted Feb 26 // Miró Cassetta
Getting sick of winter? I'll bet you are! A great way to start dressing like spring but still stay warm is to integrate pastels into your wardrobe. This fashionista at London Fashion Week is rocking more than one pastel color. She may be wearing a giant coat but she looks like a delightful, fluffy Easter egg. And what says spring more than Easter egg colors?
Get the look with any of these great, statement-making coats.
Coat 1: J.Crew Basket-Weave Toggle Coat

Coat 3: Forever21 Bouclé Varsity Jacket

From Catwalk to Sidewalk: Peplum and Pants
Posted Jan 31 // Miró Cassetta
While I was scrolling through Spring Couture pictures last week I noticed an interesting trend: peplum tops with matching cropped pants. Now give me a chance here. I first saw the look on the Schiaparelli runway and when I saw a picture of Caroline Sieber (stylist and Chanel brand ambassador) wearing a similar outfit at the Giambattista Valli couture show I knew I was on to something.
Here are a few options to take this look from the Parisian catwalks to the Austin sidewalks.
*Tips to avoid looking frumpy or crazy:
- make sure the top is fitted at the waist and tight on the arms (if it has sleeves)
- make sure the pants are cropped and slim-fitting
- wear heels to elongate your legs and make the look a little sexier
Look 1 = top and pants from BCBG
Look 2 = Halogen top from Nordstrom and Eaton Boy trouser from J.Crew
Look 3 = Halogen top and Theory silk pants from Nordstrom

Pope Saint Leo III
The son of Atyuppius and Elizabeth. Priest. Cardinal. Papal treasurer. Elected pope the day after his predecessor's burial, probably so there would not be any outside interference with the decision of the cardinals.
Upon his election, he sent Charlemagne the keys of Saint Peter and the standard of the city of Rome, Italy indicating his choice of Charlemagne as protector of the city and the see. Charlemagne, with his letters of congratulations, sent a fortune which Leo used to build churches and found charitable institutions.
On 25 April 799, members of Pope Adrian I's family hired thugs to attack Leo in a procession. They scarred his face and tried to tear out his toungue and eyes to render him unfit for the papacy. He survived the attack, scarred but tongue and eyes miraculously healed. He fled to Charlemagne's protection at Paderborn, Germany where his enemies tried to turn the king against him. When Leo recovered, Charlemagne escorted him back to Rome. In 800 he conducted a trial of Leo and of his accusers. There was no evidence of Leo's guilt, but there was of his accusers, and they were imprisoned. On Christmas day in 800, Leo crowned Charlemagne emperor, marking the beginning of the Holy Roman Empire.

About the writers
Dennis King
In 2006, he left Tulsa and along with his wife, Suzan (a retired English professor), moved to a cabin in Dingmans Ferry, PA. There, along the banks for the Delaware River, he chased after two rambunctious Labrador retrievers, fly fished the waters of the Poconos and did his best to become a full-time trout bum. Still scratching a writer's itch, he freelanced articles for Explorer magazine and Gray's Sporting Journal and wrote a stage play about classic movies and old movie theaters, titled "Spirits of the Coronado" (after his long-gone boyhood theater at 39th Street and MacArthur Boulevard).
In December, he and Suzan moved into an apartment in upper Manhattan, where they plan to eat bagels for breakfast and street-cart hot dogs for lunch, haunt the Angelika Theater and the Film Forum, go to plays and museums, ride the subways, complain about the subways and generally live like true New Yorkers.
Gene Triplett
Gene Triplett is another Oklahoma newspaper dinosaur who's been cranking out copy for 34 years, first at the upstart, long defunct Oklahoma Journal, covering just about every news beat imaginable, then at The Oklahoman, where's he's bounced back and forth from features to the news side as assistant city editor, city editor and entertainment editor, managing to hold down the latter position for more than 10 years. He holds a B.A. degree in journalism -- also from the University of Central Oklahoma -- and, also like his colleague King, chases after two loony Labrador retrievers. He does not live by a trout-filled river, but he and his wife Carol do own a swimming pool, much to the delight of their dogs.
The Tripletts enjoy gourmet outdoor cooking year-round (rain, sleet or snow), entertaining friends, road trips to scenic wooded parks that rent rustic lakeside cabins, listening to music, watching classic movies and, in the summertime, swimming with their dogs.

Ticket offer: WAS £45.00NOW £26.50
Featuring soul classics Night Train, Try A Little Tenderness, In The Midnight Hour, Papa Was A Rolling Stone, Save Me, Mustang Sally and many more – The Commitments is now live on stage for the very first time at The Palace Theatre.
The Commitments, which has taken more than two years to create and was adapted by the Booker prize winner Roddy Doyle himself. The Commitments is directed by Jamie Lloyd whose Trafalgar Transformed season is taking the West End by storm!
The Commitments is the story of Jimmy Rabbitte, a young working class music fan, who shapes an unlikely bunch of amateur musicians and friends into an amazing live act, the finest soul band Dublin has ever produced. The show follows the journey of two members of a frustrated synthesizer band – the opening scene we find them playing but being ignored in a shop window - who turn to Jimmy, the local music expert, for help.
Placing a classified advert in a music paper, Jimmy auditions a number of wannabes before finalising the new line up who he names The Commitments. The humour kicks in as the band get to know each other and their instruments, and proceed through early rehearsals for their first gig. Just as they improve and begin to get a name for themselves they combust. The backing singers are all getting off with the middle aged horn legend, the singer has entered Eurovision and the saxophone player has dangerous leaning towards a jazz career.

Insecurity News
Better Logging
As I mentioned, I had disabled SELinux instead of leaving it in permissive mode. With hard-disk space relatively cheap now, it rarely makes sense to forego audit logs to save disk space on most systems.
Additionally, with the relative ease of setting up network logging for Syslog, there is no excuse not to centrally log events (thus making it much harder for an attacker to erase any trail they leave). However, note that many attacks will leave little if any meaningful messages in the logs.
Often, a message saying that a server program has crashed will be all that is left, which hardly warrants a full-scale investigation each time it occurs.
Having a trustworthy audit trail can mean the difference between needing to rebuild an entire group of machines and only needing to clean off one. Logging also is important in providing the information needed to fix a system. Simply restoring a system to its original state won't prevent the attacker from breaking in again.
Often backups are a neglected side of information security. Backups are crucial for ensuring that systems can be rebuilt properly and data restored if necessary. If you back up nothing else, at least back up your data and make sure to store it offsite. Also, having restoration systems that work is just as important.
Too often, I have seen backups work perfectly until they were needed, bare-metal recovery images that were incompatible with replacement hardware, or exports of data that were corrupted or missing data. For example, I have a backup script that was quietly failing for three months because I forgot the "overwrite older files" option, so all the changed files had not been backed up in some time.
One of the most powerful practices I've seen is conducting a "pre-mortem." Essentially, you sit down and assume the system has already failed. Having an idea of what to do in this scenario will help prevent confusion if it ever does happen and can offer insight into preemptive action to take, such as loading host-based firewalls on every computer, regardless of whether the machine is attached to a public network.

Well, the deadline for making a Halloween costume is Monday, so if you haven't come up with something yet, you're cutting it very close.
But fear not, you can pull something together quickly using stuff you have around the house. I compiled a list of last-minute costume ideas from my own experience, some web research and a couple of ideas from Jeremy Cruse, owner of Terrortorium in Oxford.
Toilet paper mummy
All you need are some white long johns (especially if it's a chilly Halloween) and a couple rolls of toilet paper. With help from a friend, wrap yourself in toilet paper, securing with tape where necessary. Make sure you take an extra roll with you while you are out and about for any touch-ups … or to throw in your neighbor's trees.
Raid your closet — bellbottoms are best, but any flared jeans should work. Add a flowery shirt, headband and pair of sandals and you're good to go. Make sure you flash some peace signs, too.
This is probably one of the easiest costumes. Just put on some torn, ratty clothes and smear some dirt (or brown makeup) on your face and you're instantly a hobo. Accessories will really make this outfit, so try and add a bag on a stick and an old tin cup.
Pull your pants up high on your waist, tuck in a button-up shirt and wear some glasses wrapped in tape. Carry some textbooks and a calculator for accessories.
Just wear regular clothes (or black for more effect) and tape or safety-pin Smarties candy to your pants — no one wants to eat those anyway.
Black-eyed peas
Draw black P's around your eyes. This works especially well as a group costume.
Celebrity impersonations
Good celebrity impersonations for this year are Charlie Sheen (remember to talk about winning and tiger's blood), Justin Bieber (got to have the swooshy hair), Lady Gaga (raid your freezer), anyone running for president, the Kardashians and Amy Winehouse.

Miami Heat's LeBron James named SI's Sportsman of the Year
Story Highlights
The premier talent of his generation, LeBron James reached new heights in 2012
James became just the second player to win a title, MVP and gold in the same year
Off the court, his philanthropic efforts continue to improve his hometown of Akron
This story appears in the Dec. 10, 2012, issue of Sports Illustrated. Buy the digital version of the magazine here.
Pat Riley stood in the mouth of the tunnel at Boston's TD Garden, between the court and the locker room, and waited for the Boat. That's what he calls LeBron James -- "You know," Riley explains, "best of all time" -- an acronym he conjured to remind the planet's preeminent basketball player of frontiers still to be conquered. "Hey, Boat," Riley will say. "How is the Boat doing today?" James will reflexively laugh and shake his head because he is not the Boat, at least not yet. But on that sweaty night at the Garden, in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference finals, facing yet another summer cast as the villain foiled, he delivered one of the Boat performances in NBA history. The image of James throughout the game, bent at the waist, staring skyward with pupils pushed to his eyelids, recalled predators of different breeds. "He was primal," Riley says. "He was a cobra, a leopard, a tiger hunched over his kill."
After James had unleashed 45 points, snatched 15 rebounds and sucked all the juice from an expectant crowd, he marched toward Riley, the Heat president who lured him to South Beach two years ago with his six sparkling rings. He was just a few steps from Riley when a 20-something man perched above the tunnel poured what remained of his beer through a net canopy, dousing James's head and jersey. While a national television audience recoiled, Riley was transported back to the 1980s, when he coached the Lakers and rabble-rousers at the old Garden rocked their buses, spit in their faces and once shoved his mother-in-law over a railing.
"I'm a Catholic, and I was an altar boy, so I say my prayers at night and I believe someone up there is taking care of us," Riley begins. "From where I was standing, there was a backlight on LeBron from the arena, and as the [beer] pellets sprayed up in the air, they looked like they were forming a halo over him. This is what I saw: The good Lord was saying, 'LeBron, I'm going to help you through this night because you're a nice person, and I'm going to give you 45 and 15. But as you walk off, I'm going to humble the heck out of you.' And, you know what, that's the best thing that could have happened."
It was the story of his life. James could log 47 flawless minutes, or win 60 regular-season games, or spend seven years as a one-man stimulus package for a hard-bitten Rust Belt city and still end up with a beer in the face. We forgive our favorite athletes many imperfections and foibles, but James was held to a higher standard. He was too strong, too fast, too blessed to stumble, especially in the fourth quarter of a playoff game. "I'm in a different place than other people," he says. "That's O.K. I understand. I was chosen for this. It's my gift. It's my responsibility."
When James was nine, he played running back for a Pop Warner team in his hometown of Akron called the East Dragons, and he scored 18 touchdowns in six games. "That's when I first knew I had talent," he says. When he was a freshman at St. Vincent-St. Mary High, a basketball coach confided in friends that the best player of all time was on his roster. When he was a sophomore, a local newspaper dubbed him King James, and never again did he play in front of a gym that wasn't jammed.
James is a sucker for underdogs -- "I love Arian Foster, from the Houston Texans," he says, "because he didn't get drafted, he played on the practice squad, and now he's probably the best running back in the NFL" -- knowing full well he will never be one himself. He will never win in an upset, never know what it feels like to overachieve. He assumes the most unsustainable position in sports, the eternal front-runner, and he kept coming up short at the finish. But after each colossal disappointment, while the talking heads returned their attention to Tim Tebow or whatever topic du jour gooses the ratings, James wiped the beer from his chin and resumed his discovery. "In every adversity there is a seed of equivalent benefit," Riley says, and the Boat finds it. When James lost in the Finals in 2007, with the Cavaliers, he remade his jump shot. When he fell again in 2011, with the Heat, he built a post game. James was born with supernatural ability, but he lets none of it lie dormant. He extracts every ounce, through a distillation process created and refined by failure.
"The game is a house, and some players only have one or two windows in their house because they can't absorb any more light," says Mike Krzyzewski, head coach of Team USA. "When I met LeBron, he only had a few windows, but then he learned how beautiful the game can be, so he put more windows in. Now he sees the damn game so well, it's like he lives in a glass building. He has entered a state of mastery. There's nothing he can't do. God gave him a lot but he is using everything. He's one of the unique sports figures of all time, really, and he's right in that area where it's all come together." A voracious mind has caught up with a supreme body. The marriage is a marvel.
"It gets no better for a basketball player," says Heat guard Dwyane Wade of the year James just completed: NBA champion, NBA MVP, Finals MVP, Olympic gold medalist, hardwood revolutionary. Call him the best point guard in the league, or the best power forward, or both, or neither. "He has no position," says an NBA scout. "His position is to do whatever he wants. There's never been anything like it. You just give him the ball and you win the game." Defend James with bigger players and he pulls them out to the three-point line so he can breeze past them. Try smaller, more nimble players and he backs them all the way into the basket stanchion. The formula sounds simple, for a Mack truck with a Ferrari engine, but only now has it come into focus.

Summer 2007 – Special Edition: 51 Ways to Save Hundreds on Loans and Credit Cards
Taking Charge of Your Credit Cards
Many of our general tips starting on Cutting Your Costs: Simple Strategies for Saving Money on Loans and Credit Cards can help save you money on credit cards. For example, we said it's important to pay your credit card bill and other debts on time to avoid late-payment fees and additional interest costs. Here are more suggestions.
21. When choosing a credit card, ask yourself if you plan to pay the balance in full each month. Many people don't pay their bill each month — they always carry a balance and pay interest on it. Yet many of these same people sign up for a card because it has no annual fee, without considering the benefits of a card with a lower interest rate or a more generous grace period (before interest begins accumulating). In the long run, a card that doesn't charge an annual fee could end up costing you far more in interest than a card that charges an annual fee.
In general, if you expect to pay your balance in full most months, look for a card with a full grace period and no annual fee. However, if you plan on carrying a balance, then a card with an annual fee and low APR (Annual Percentage Rate) may be a better choice.
22. Read and save the "disclosures" describing a card's features and fees so you know how to save money. "When it comes to information about the terms of your credit card, be a pack rat," said Janet Kincaid, FDIC Senior Consumer Affairs Officer.
Key information to look for and keep: What is the interest rate and how can it change? Is there an annual fee? What about charges for late payments, returned checks, balance transfers or exceeding your credit limit? What's the cost of a "cash advance" — typically meaning you use your credit card to get cash from an ATM or to make a purchase using one of the blank "convenience checks" sent with monthly statements? Cash advances are likely to carry sizable upfront fees, a high interest rate and no grace period before interest begins accumulating. Also, stay on top of fee increases by reading and saving the disclosures sent in monthly statements or other mailings.
Avoiding additional charges isn't the only reason to become an avid reader of your credit card company's literature. Potential cost savings built into your card also are worth exploring. For example, your credit card may automatically include, at no extra charge, extended warranties on purchases and insurance for car rentals. Your card also may offer cash back on purchases, rewards good for airline travel or products and services, and various other extras. Also be aware of the rules governing these perks because limitations, fees and deadlines may greatly reduce their value.
23. Be especially aware of your card issuer's billing practices, which can significantly affect your costs. How your card company treats the balances on which you are charged interest can be critical. Here are examples of potentially high-cost practices that many people don't know about even though card issuers must disclose them:
Two-cycle billing: This billing practice is rare but is used by some card issuers. Practices may vary but, in general, if you pay your credit card bill in full one month but then only pay a portion of the bill the next month, your interest charges ultimately will be based on two months of card charges and not one. This may result in you paying more in interest charges than you would under the more common one-cycle billing method. To find out if your card is subject to two-cycle billing, review the cardholder agreement and disclosures from your lender or call their customer service number.
Payment allocation: This involves cards with multi-tiered interest rates. For example, there may be a low rate on a balance transferred from another card, a higher rate on new purchases, and an even higher rate on a cash advance. If you pay only part of your monthly bill, card companies typically will apply your payment to the balance with the lowest interest rate first, while the highest-rate balance continues to run up interest costs until you pay the entire balance.
Universal default: This happens when a card issuer increases a customer's interest rate because he or she made late payments to other lenders or had an overall decline in a credit score — even if that customer paid the card bill in full and on time. While this once-common practice is rare, be aware that it could be used.
24. Know your credit limit and stay below it. There are two problems with going over your card's credit limit. One is that your card issuer will charge you a penalty, which can be expensive, typically about $30 for each instance. Also, exceeding your credit limit may damage your credit score, which may mean higher interest rates, now and in the future.
To be confident you are within your credit limit, Kincaid recommends the following. "Periodically check your balance by phone or online to make sure you stay within your limit," she said. "Also give yourself an extra cushion — either try not to get too close to your credit limit or call the card company to get a higher limit if you anticipate a special need, such as a vacation or major purchase."

Tallinn is the capital and largest city of Estonia. Tallinn's Old Town is in the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. It is ranked as a global city and has been listed among the top 10 digital cities in the world.The main attractions are in the two old towns (Lower Town and Toompea) which are both easily explored on foot. Eastern districts around Pirita and Kadriorg are also worth visiting and the Estonian Open Air Museum (Eesti Vabaõhumuuseum) in Rocca al Mare, west of the city, preserves aspects of Estonian rural culture and architecture. The Port of Tallinn is the biggest port authority in Estonia. Taking into account both cargo and passenger traffic, it is one of the largest port enterprises of the Baltic Sea. Port of Tallinn is a state-owned company managing five constituent ports (two of them in Tallinn).
Located in the picturesque 84 - hectare forest park, the museum gathers a fine collection of 17th - 19th century rural architecture from all over the Estonia. Farmhouses, country pubs, windmills, and chapels will be on display and furnished according to period styles. Entrance fees are included.
The Port of St. Petersburg is located on the islands of Neva Delta, in Neva Bay in the east part of the Baltic Sea's Gulf of Finland. St. Petersburg is a popular port of call for cruise ships sailing to Scandinavia and northern Europe. St. Petersburg is known as a cultural center and is renowned for its elegant buildings. The city is spread over 42 islands in the delta of the River Neva. It was built by Peter the Great in 1703 and remained the capital of Tsarist Russia for 200 years. Wide boulevards, tranquil canals, bridges and some of the best examples of tsarist architecture gave rise to the epithet the 'Venice of the North'. The Palace Square and the Winter Palace (Hermitage Museum) are among the most popular attractions for enthusiasts of Russian history.
Take a panoramic tour and get acquainted with the main architectural and historical monuments of St Petersburg with your own private driver and English-speaking guide. View Monastery of Alexander Nevsky with its magnificent Trinity Cathedral and its cemetery where Dostoevsky, Tchaikovsky and other world celebrities were buried.

With an overnight mooring at the St. Petersburg port, you have the entire day today to spend in this city, formerly known as Leningrad. The bridges and canals are a beautiful sight, as is the overall ornamentation of what was Peter the Great's impressive undertaking when he built this city as a "window to the west"; a stark contrast to the marshland and forest that was this land merely 300 years ago.
Enjoy a guided tour of the Hermitage and admire the gems of the collection, escorted by your private driver and English-speaking guide. During the tour you will see the State Rooms of the Winter Palace, a part of the collection of paintings of Old Masters and other exciting exhibits and works of art.

Admire the richest collection of ancient and early medieval items, works of art from Ancient Greece and Rome, fabulous treasures of oriental culture and wonderful European art. Entrance fee to Hermitage Museum is included.
Today is your final day in St. Petersburg as your ship sets sail again in the early evening. Be sure to take in the sights that you haven't had a chance to visit since your arrival in this fine city.
Located on the Gulf of Finland, the Helsinki Port provides ships access to Finland's capital, and largest city. Classical Helsinki's sights can be divided into an eclectic set of churches and a wide variety of museums. Suomenlinna, the "Gibraltar of the North", was once the greatest sea fortress in the baltic, and is a highly recommended sight for visitors to Helsinki.
Today is a full day spent at sea, cruising onward toward your final destination; Copenhagen. Use the day to relax and rejuvenate at the on board spa, or perhaps take a dip in the swimming pool or whirlpools on the Pool Deck. The day is yours to do as you please.
This morning you'll arrive in Copenhagen where you'll disembark from your cruise ship. Bid farewell to your fellow cruisemates as you make landfall.
Meet your driver for a private port transfer.
The d'Angleterre (5*) is located on Kongens Nytorv in the heart of Copenhagen. With neighbours such as the Royal Theatre, Nyhavn Canal, and the pedestrian shopping street Strøget, the d'Angleterre is surrounded by the best shopping, design, dining, and cultural experiences Copenhagen has to offer. 90 gracefully appointed rooms and suites are individually decorated and combine modern technology with luxurious amenities to create an ambience that is distinctly d'Angleterre.

Canonical Now Hiring Designers and Usability Visionaries
Canonical, the company behind Ubuntu, wants a more elegant and user-friendly Linux-Desktop for it's users. In a full blown statement at this year's OSCON, Ubuntu grounder Mark Shuttleworth proclaimed: ''The great task in front of us over the next two years is to lift the experience of the Linux desktop from something that is stable and robust and not so pretty, into something that is art''.
How exactly he hopes to achieve this is explained on his blog: ''We're hiring designers, user experience champions and interaction design visionaries'' and he adds, ''With help from the experts, we'll make a unified desktop- experience happen.''
In effect he wants a team of X, OpenGL, Gtk, Qt, GNOME and KDE specialists to work on the project. The new team will work closely with the Upstream software developers but will be totally independent from Ubuntu's regular team, who will concentrate on the core business of integration and distribution of Ubuntu's software.
Shuttleworth admits it'll be difficult to get everyone together on this. Too many aims and objectives are colliding. He agrees it will be a process of trial and error, but he's sure the challenge can, and will, be met.

Zingerman's Peranzana Olive Oil
Zingerman's Peranzana Olive Oil
The oil we put our label on.
We looked long and hard for an oil to call our own. We finally chose this one. Zingerman's Olive Oil is made by Marina Colonna on her ancient estate in the Molise, a little over 100 miles due east of Rome. Made from hand picked Peranzana olives pressed the same day they're taken from the tree, this extra virgin olive oil is hugely flavorful.
The latest vintage, harvested and pressed in fall 2012, is a vibrant dark yellow with a green tinge. It reminds me of focaccia: the flavor is a little rich with a hint of rosemary and a nice bright grassiness. The finish is big and peppery. It's excellent on just about everything—salads, soups, seafood, steaks, beans or, of course, bruschetta.
Our Frantoio Olive Oil from Chile is also bottled under a Zingerman's label.

Take a look at you and me,,Are we too blind to see, Do we Simply turn our heads and look the other way.....(Line From "in The Ghetto")
Just wanna say that I LOVE the new banner too Great job, Jumpsuit Junkie
This light green is my favourite color
I love that green too Linda. It's so fresh and warm and cozy looking. Love that picture by the way!
well i'm not a fan of green but i like this banner good job though its good to have the banners to match special events
The problem we have is that there are so many national days for each country that we could end up changing the banner every other day!
Perhaps we should stick to those that are celebrated by Elvis' native country and the big celebrations that are world wide.... not sure what the answer is?
Beautiful work Matt on all the banners you've made for us
