Construction work has started on the largest housing project in Lake Macquarie, with high hopes it will revive the Hunter building industry.
In starting the 2500-lot project, developer Keith Johnson has overcome the global financial crisis, near bankruptcy and a reluctance from banks to finance major subdivisions.
''I'm trying to kickstart the Hunter housing market,'' Mr Johnson said of the project, which he values at $1billion.
''For every new house built, nine jobs will be created.
''There will be 22,500 jobs over the life of the project.''
To read The Herald's opinion, click here.
Lake Macquarie mayor and MP Greg Piper said yesterday he was pleased the project had advanced.
''It's an important part of Lake Macquarie City Council's strategy to accommodate the growth we knew would occur in southern Lake Macquarie,'' Cr Piper said, adding that the site was ''well situated, close to services, shops and the F3 freeway''.
Urban Taskforce chief executive Chris Johnson said the project was good for the Hunter and NSW.
''For too long these big projects have been only colours on maps, but to begin real development is what this state needs,'' Mr Johnson said.
''NSW is well behind other states for housing starts.''
The name Watagan Park is a nod to the nearby mountains, to which the site has views.
The Hunter's top civil construction firm Daracon is building infrastructure on the site, readying the first 48 lots for sale.
A dozen lots will go on sale from July 8 with prices to be under $169,000 a lot.
Mr Johnson said before the financial crisis those lots would have sold for up to $250,000 each.
He said the drop in value would be a boon to first-home buyers, along with the Liberal government's announcement a fortnight ago of a $15,000 grant towards new homes.
''This will give young families a good opportunity to enter the market.''
Mr Johnson said his development would have larger lots than standard.
''We're bringing back backyard cricket,'' he said.
Mr Johnson said he would work with leading Hunter builders to provide ''many choices'' of homes that land buyers could build.
He said the project would include building standards to maintain quality and people's investments, but the standards would not be onerous. The land will have water, sewer, natural gas and National Broadband Network connections.
Johnson Property Group reached agreements with the state government and Lake Macquarie City Council to contribute $130million towards community infrastructure.
Mr Johnson said triggers were built into the agreements so infrastructure would be built as certain amounts of lots were sold.
The site would include a cycleway, walking trail, barbecue area, sporting fields and parks.
Cooranbong is among the first major developments of the state government's Lower Hunter Regional Strategy to begin construction.
The strategy set the region's land use direction in 2006.
Mr Johnson said his project had emerged from years of red tape and planning delays. The Newcastle Herald first reported in January 2005 that Mr Johnson was seeking a rezoning for the site.
The Johnson Property Group hit trouble during the financial crisis, teetering on the brink of oblivion as banks sought to reduce risk.
Mr Johnson said he secured private finance to begin the project. He said a third of the 360-hectare site would be conserved and $9million spent on regenerating it, along with a $1million endowment fund to maintain bush in future.
Mr Johnson revealed last year that creditors owed about $150million had accepted a new arrangement for the company.
The agreement allowed the company to emerge from administration and refinance.

Posts Tagged 'Questions'
How To Check Your PHP Installation? Please explain with example
PHP provides two execution interfaces: Command Line Interface (CLI) and Common Gateway Interface (CGI). If PHP is installed in the php directory on your system, you can try this to check your installation:
* Run "phpphp -v" command to check the Command Line Interface (CLI).
* Run "phpphp-cgi -v" command to check the Common Gateway Interface (CGI).
If you see PHP printing the version information on your screen for both commands, your installation is ok. Open a command window and run the commands below:
C:>phpphp -v
PHP 5.2.2 (cli) (built: May 2 2007 19:18:26)
Copyright (c) 1997-2007 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.2.0 Copyright (c) 1998-2007 Zend Technologies
C:>phpphp-cgi -v
PHP 5.2.2 (cgi-fcgi) (built: May 2 2007 19:18:25)
Copyright (c) 1997-2007 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.2.0 Copyright (c) 1998-2007 Zend Technologies
How To Run a PHP Script? Please explain with example
A standard alone PHP script can be executed directly with the PHP Command Line Interface (CLI). Write the following script in a file called hello.php:
<?php echo "Hello world!"; ?>
This script can be executed by CLI interface like this:
phpphp hello.php
You should see the "Hello world!" message printed on your screen.
How to Find a Substring from a Given String in PHP? Please explain with example
To find a substring in a given string, you can use the strpos() function. If you call strpos($haystack, $needle), it will try to find the position of the first occurrence of the $needle string in the $haystack string. If found, it will return a non-negative integer represents the position of $needle. Othewise, it will return a Boolean false. Here is a PHP script example of strpos():
$haystack1 = "2349534134345globalguideline16504381640386488129″;
$haystack2 = "globalguideline234953413434516504381640386488129″;
$haystack3 = "guideline234953413434516504381640386488129ggl";
$pos1 = strpos($haystack1, "globalguideline");
$pos2 = strpos($haystack2, "globalguideline");
$pos3 = strpos($haystack3, "globalguideline");
print("pos1 = ($pos1); type is " . gettype($pos1) . "n");
print("pos2 = ($pos2); type is " . gettype($pos2) . "n");
print("pos3 = ($pos3); type is " . gettype($pos3) . "n");
This script will print:
pos1 = (13); type is integer
pos2 = (0); type is integer
pos3 = (); type is boolean
"pos3″ shows strpos() can return a Boolean value

Wash. 911 dispatcher sends mom to rescue kayaker
CATHLAMET, Wash. -- A 911 dispatcher in Washington state called on her own mother to rescue a stranded boater in the Columbia River, knowing her mother could kayak to the area faster than sending the sheriff's office patrol boat.
A 45-year-old kayaker was hanging onto a log piling Sunday afternoon after her kayak sank in swift current near a jetty, Wahkiakum County dispatcher Raedyn Grasseth told The Daily News.
Her companion left to seek help.
The stranded woman "hung onto the jetty until she could climb up and get on to as much of the log piling as she could and waited," Grasseth said.
Grasseth notified the sheriff's office and then realized her mother, Cindy Faubion, and other members of her family lived nearby and could get there quicker.
"I knew they could be there within five to 10 minutes," Grasseth said.
She called her mother, Cindy Faubion, who is a kayaker. Faubion and other family members quickly paddled to the piling in a kayak and a skiff.
The rescued woman was cold and shaken but did not require medical care. "She's lucky she's alive, plain and simple," Grasseth said.

I have one potential dislike, but it depends on a revelation one way or the other. If the hintings in the first Superman arc, that Lois might know Clark is Superman, become unfounded or ignored completely and she in fact doesn't know, that'll be the one thing on my list. I have little interest in reverting to dumb-Lois. Being in her unique position: a person close to both sides of the dual identity, AND being an investigative reporter to boot, it makes complete sense to me that she'd figure it out on her own eventually despite Clark's mastery of dual role.
Last edited by Sacred Knight; 04-26-2012 at 03:08 PM.
Perry ought to know, too.
Jimmy is a 'maybe' - he may just dismiss it as 'too good to be true'.
All three of them, though, would understand and appreciate why Clark didn't reveal it and would protect The Secret (and him) even without him knowing they know.
There's even more as the arc continues, but I won't spoil it since you've said you just read the first two issues thus far.
I hate the skirt!
Even as a small child I couldn't figure out why a flying girl would EVER want to wear a dress.
Then, with the last version, we got up-skirt-a-palooza, which just got ridiculous - as bad as Ma Kent whipping up a fresh batch 'O capes, post-Crisis. The "Super-Maxi," also offers a fix to the great design imbalance problem Superman's f'ugly suit has. The thing needs more red in the middle. The seems are just ludicrous & I can't see how, given the revelations of the suit, serve any purpose. They're just Lee's love of intricacy run amok.
* *
Civilly disobeying the law of gravity.
1. no marriage
2. seems low powered
3. dead Kents
Pull List; seems to be too long to fit in my sig...
I'll add...
1) the fact it's another stinking reboot. Wouldn't be so bad if we hadn't just had SECRET ORIGIN two years ago and BIRTHRIGHT for about 10 minutes before that!! I'm sick of seeing Superman constantly rebooted and having his history erased wholesale every time he hits a sales slump.
2) by that token, they've erased pretty much everything of the last 25-30 years...EXCEPT the DEATH OF SUPERMAN? How does that work? If you have to radically retool the story to get it to fit,what's the point of keeping it? If he isn't engaged/married to Lois and the Kent's are both dead, and Superboy/Conner is debuting now...you can't do the "death and return" saga as was. It should be gone too.
3) the suit. I don't HATE the design itself. I just hate the idea it's supposed to be some kind of armor. Dan Jurgens is the only one so far that can draw it like armor and make it look ok. That aspect of it needs to go.
3) The renumbering. I can understand SUPERMAN being renumbered...but ACTION (and DETECTIVE for that matter) should NEVER have been renumbered. Ever. There's something to be said for respecting the past.
4)the 5 year time scale. Too restrictive, especially when talking about the other characters who retained a large portion of their past continuity (Aquaman, Batman group and Green Lantern group). Even though Superman is supposed to be their contemporary, it makes him feel like a "rookie", as his past is largely a blank slate to us long time readers.
5) the messed up bangs when he's Clark. It's okay when Clark is a newbie upstart in ACTION, but you'd think he would start to look more professional in 5 years time, especially now that he's working for Perry White. We don't need to see him in fedoras and blue suits again, but for gods sake, comb your hair, C. K.
6) Lois being put on the back burner. It's getting better now, but the first four or so months of the reboot, she was barely there! Even if she isn't his wife anymore, Lois Lane should ALWAYS be his main co-star.

I don't care, I've 'retconned' it to 12 years ago (and even then it's tight)
So, roughly:
12 years ago: Batman starts (he's around 20); 'Superboy' is a 'country legend' (he's around 15)
11.5 years ago: Death of the Graysons
11 years ago: Dick is recruited (he's 11) (still not comfortable with his age being so close to Kal's, though, or the 'small' gap between him and Bruce); Bruce and Talia tango (this is either when Damien was conceived or when the mingled genetic material was obtained...)
7 years ago: Superman goes public; Jason begins training
6 years and 4 months ago: Superman saves Metropolis from The Collector
6 years and 3 months ago: Clark Kent joins The Daily Planet
6 years ago: Aquaman is revealed; Dick is now Nightwing and Jason is Robin
5 years and 5 months ago: Barry becomes The Flash; Aquaman and The Others team up; Aquaman rescues Oliver Queen
5 years and 2 months ago: Diana comes to Man's World and Hal becomes Earth's Green Lantern; Barry and Hal meet and encounter Grodd
5 years ago: JLA is formed, Batman is no longer an 'urban legend' and Darkseid is defeated (oh, and Vic becomes 'Cyborg')
4.5 years ago: J'onn joins the JLA
4 years ago: Jason dies; J'onn 'tests' the JLA and finds them lacking; Barbara becomes Batgirl; Lois discovers The Secret
3.5 years ago: Tim is recruited (Bruce isn't keen on this)
3 years ago: Tim is Robin; Barbara is shot
2.5 years ago: Jason returns
2 years ago: Damien seeks out Bruce
1.8 years ago: Superman 'dies'
1.5 years ago: Bruce 'dies' and Dick becomes Batman
1 year ago: Superman returns (this one is hard to place as the indications are that it's relatively recent but also that he only recently returned to Metropolis..and we don't yet know where he had been, so it may be that he came back from the dead and then left Metropolis for a while)
0.5 years ago: Bruce returns and starts up Inc; split with Tim
Couple of months ago: Superboy awakes; Tim is behind 'NuWikiLeaks'
1 month ago: New Daily Planet building is unveiled, 'alien attack' in Metropolis; Superboy hunts down the Teens; JLA fights Amazo; Green Arrow tries to join the JLA
A few weeks ago: second 'alien attack'; Superboy 'escapes'; Green Arrow is still trying to join the JLA
A couple of weeks ago: Court of Owls attacks Gotham, JLA lend a hand and Green Arrow is still trying to join them
Over the course of the past week: Kara lands on Earth, is attacked, attacks Kal, finds out Krypton is gone, is lured into a trap, exposed to Kryptonite, escapes, destroys a multi-billion dollar satellite and unwittingly leaves some of her blood behind, finds Argo, encounters Reign, is left for dead, returns to Earth and saves it from a team of (incompetent) Worldkillers, attacked by humans, meets Siobhan, flees with her, goes to a bar and 'meets' Siobhan's dad (insert parts yet untold); Superman is 'replaced' and starts exercising a firm hand on Metropolis; Kara spots Superboy, talks to him and then smacks him around a little, tells him he's going to be a killer, heads to Metropolis, catches McCoy and encounters doppleganger of Kal-El, gets smacked around, is saved by the real Kal-El (insert parts yet untold)
A day ago: Clark agrees to pick up Lucy from the station on Lois' behalf and that Jimmy can stay at his place for a while, ends up tangoing with Helspont and getting in Lucy's bad book
Dr Sivana starts his hunt
I've left out the JLI and JLD stuff and it seems the Captain Ma...Shazam stuff hasn't happened yet as it's not yet Christmas...
Nah, things are much more relaxed these days...5) the messed up bangs when he's Clark. It's okay when Clark is a newbie upstart in ACTION, but you'd think he would start to look more professional in 5 years time, especially now that he's working for Perry White. We don't need to see him in fedoras and blue suits again, but for gods sake, comb your hair, C. K.
I prefer the 5 years ago timeline. I mean, I can sympathize on the Batman end of things as yes, its a tight fit. But not impossible. The Robin "intern" idea is kinda silly but at the same time it manages the problem, if not ideally. And putting that aside for a moment and just looking at the Superman franchise itself, I don't see any potential issues whatsoever with the 5 year window. 12 years is way way too long.
Oh, and I got one more. Nitpicky aesthetic thing but I don't know why they're going out of their way now to eliminate the loop at the end of the S, while at the same time making sure that Kon has it. I would think if they wanted some slight diversification between Kal, Kara, and Kon's shields, it'd be Superman who'd have the one closest to the trademark. I like the loop. :(

1. Age; Superman doesn't need to be this young. I do like the more "social crusader" angle but I don't see why he has to be so young, in fact it's a major turn off for me. Not because I somehow begrudge younger heroes but it's Superman not Superboy (not that there's anything wrong with Superboy).
Where does it reference that Superman died in the new continuity? I missed that.

You have to see to it that you get permission first before scattering ashes on private property or in a park. The know the areas that are ok and the areas that are not ok to scatter the remains. And this is one of the many benefits of hiring a pilot to disperse the ashes..

The report does not separate out resource rich provinces like Alberta from the havenots so the twopercent estimate is in fact larger for provinces like Ontario and Quebec and some in the Atlantic region..
Lots of people are turning to reusable Louis Vuitton Mahina bags when they shop. They may be reacting to estimates that hundreds of millions of plastic shopping Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene Canvas bags are used once and thrown away every year. They may believe (correctly we think) that carrying a reusable Louis Vuitton Monogram Multicolore bag to the supermarket or farmers market is a way of acting locally.. Although I have tried troubleshooting by moving the RAM around a bit and moving the slots I've plugged the hard drives into I've seen no improvement. I'm not that great with all of this and my friend who assists me is stumped as well. Was hoping for some insight sorry if I wasn't detailed enough..
This 2,400sq.foot home of the future is updated with the latest (mainly Microsoft) gadgetry every two years most recently last September and is meant to represent what the typical family house may look like in about five or 10 years. By then Microsoft anticipates all the technology in the house will be affordable for the average consumer. Once inside the house you meet "Grace." That's the name of the system that coordinates the lights security air conditioning PCs home entertainment and kitchen appliances. MOST IMPORTANT of all she told me to always remember that a panic attack will always begin to subside after twenty minutes and to look at the clock the moment I felt it begin. Your body's fight/ flight response to produce adrenaline and elevate heart and breathing rates can only work for this long and although the exhaustion and general anxiety may be felt for sometime after the panic attack that critical stage can only last 20 mins. Just knowing that there is that end point in sight was enough to help reduce the panic symptons for me..

That ought to tell you something the average american does not want to be told how to think vote or make his/her life decisions. I am a lifelong registered democrat and I too am not at the "beck and call of the democratic leadership. Right now the democratic leadership has determined that the last election has given them the right to do as they see fit and the people who attend the teaparties are trying to tell you that they do not agree with the leaders.
More than 40 mills made fabric for Louis Vuitton bags in thousands of different patterns. Instead of printing logos directly on the sack factories sewed the logos in the seams. Louis Vuitton For Sale bags were stamped with stitching lines for roller towels embroidery patterns for aprons and pillowcases. From the outset Corby who has no criminal record or any history of drug abuse has denied any knowledge of the drug arguing that it must have been planted in the unlocked Louis Vuitton Damier Azur Canvas bag.

Often one can't help but give in to "accessory overload" but it would be wise to avoid this altogether. One or two accessories are enough to make a statement. The same principle applies to jewelleries: a tasteful watch is enough to convey elegance in men; for women don a classy pair of earrings and a simple necklace and you are ready to go. The truth is at first I wasn very interested in who this dead man was. I had found him; he was dead. He was obviously homeless. Ways to forgive myself for PTSD rage? Can my husband forgive?I read the full post before it was edited but I was busy plus I had to think about my response. To be honest I've sensed from your other questions that you have anger inside you. I know many people including myself have at times felt burning resentment and even wished harm on others.

"After steady and substantial global temperature increase from 1980 to 1998, the pause in warming is causing a crisis for the climate crusade. It wasn't supposed to happen like this. The recent temperature record is falling distinctly to the very low end of the range predicted by the climate models and may soon fall out of it, which means the models are wrong, or, at the very least, something is going on that supposedly 'settled' science hasn't been able to settle. Equally problematic for the theory, one place where the warmth might be hiding? —?? the oceans ? —?? is not cooperating with the story line. Recent data show that ocean warming has noticeably slowed, too."

" In the 1960's Popular Science published an article concerning dropping global temperatures. Scientists at the time were concerned about the trend - I would guess that it wasn't the only article at the time discussing this potential crisis. Jump ahead a few decades and that information was somehow forgotten. It's baffling how people will will jump to conclusions over trends which may just be natural phenomena because someone who they perceive as an "expert" says it's so. "

Discourse and Identityby Anna De Fina Deborah Schiffrin Michael Bamberg Anna De Fina Deborah Schiffrin
The relationship between language, discourse and identity has always been a major area of sociolinguistic investigation. In more recent times, the field has been revolutionized as previous models - which assumed our identities to be based on stable relationships between linguistic and social variables - have been challenged by pioneering new approaches to the topic. This volume brings together a team of leading experts to explore discourse in a range of social contexts. By applying a variety of analytical tools and concepts, the contributors show how we build images of ourselves through language, how society moulds us into different categories, and how we negotiate our membership of those categories. Drawing on numerous interactional settings (the workplace; medical interviews; education), in a variety of genres (narrative; conversation; interviews), and amongst different communities (immigrants; patients; adolescents; teachers), this revealing volume sheds new light on how our social practices can help to shape our identities.

Not sure about the psycho babble, but IVE LOST YOU, DONT CRY DADDY, AMERICAN TRILOGY, and others, sure do it for me .........
This is a very interesting analysis of the sonic properties of songs that make people cry or give them goosebumps, using Adele's Someone Like You as an example (because of the way many people react to it).
I wonder if any of you have such responses to any of Elvis's songs and if so, what part(s) of those songs. Also, can anyone identify some of the patterns identified in the article in any EP songs?
...you won't forget me when I go.
Not sure about the psycho babble, but IVE LOST YOU, DONT CRY DADDY, AMERICAN TRILOGY, and others, sure do it for me .........
The most obvious one to me is Unchained Melody.......
Of all the covers that Elvis did of other people's songs, I always prefer his interpretation of it.......except Unchained Melody. I love the Righteous Bros version....
The thing with UM, is the obvious connection that a few short weeks later he wouldn't be here, the way he struggles his way through (hampered I'm sure by sitting down), that cheeky grin......just makes me fill up, I want to start bawling.......I get this mixture of immense sadness....and a deep frustration, that I wanted to get hold of him and give him such a shake/slap to try to make him see what he was doing to himself.
People want to see an official release of EIC, in upgraded quality......no, not for me. I've seen what I need to see, it's enough.
Long Black Limousine
What Now My Love (in Aloha, the line 'no-one would care if I should live or die'....it's the expression on his face)
It's Easy For You
Separate Ways
there's many more of course
"NO-ONE, BUT NO-ONE,IS HIS EQUAL, OR EVER WILL BE. HE WAS, AND IS SUPREME".Mick Jagger
Lately for me it's been Don't Cry Daddy.
I feel emotional when I listen to Elvis sing simply because he feels what he's singing, so he parts his heart and soul into it and I feel that.
Deb I can so relate to you about What Now My Love, that song has brought tears to my eyes.
The laughing version of Are you Lonesome Tonight is my cheer up song, cos when I hear him laugh, he lifts my spirits.
You ask how long I love you, I'll tell you true,
until the Twelfth of Never, I'll still be loving you
Wow already some good ones. Debtdbruno, I really like Its easy for you and What now my love are some of my favorites too. I would maybe add "Its Over". There are so many.
But the song that really sums it up for me is Bridge over troubled water. When he sings that song it makes me think about how I feel when I hear his music.... When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them off....When time gets rough and friends cant be found (Elvis will be there) I could go on and on with this song. Here is one of my favorite versions.
Love Elvis...The Greatest
RIP Tommy
well let me tell you. Elvis was 42.Having a great voice still! And for me i love elvis in concert it was the first time i got introduced to elvis and made me became a elvisfan. Looks like people cant seem to accept his '77 look. Sure elvis was sick and lonely. But Elvis was Elvis u cant expect a guy from 42 to still do the same thing he did 20 years earlier. U cant either compare EIC to TTWII, Those where 7 years between and Elvis had alot goin on in his life between those years. EIC Will always be my favourite Elvis Documentary
I agree totally.........he was a middle aged Man, and to be totally honest, I thought he was a bit too thin in the 68 special, and TTWII. Physically, I would say in On Tour he looked about right....just a bit pale and a terrible hairstyle.....lol
The holiday pics of Hawaii in the March....he just looked a bit 'tubby'.....but not bad. The jumpsuits made him look far worse. It was all around the gut area, his arms and legs looked quite thin.
Regarding the vocals, I think he pulled it out of the bag with the bigger vocal songs, but more upsetting to me was the mumbling, and slightly incoherent talking.....that is not what the general public need to be re-reminded of......
"NO-ONE, BUT NO-ONE,IS HIS EQUAL, OR EVER WILL BE. HE WAS, AND IS SUPREME".Mick Jagger
Well For Me It's 'Anything That's part of you'
'Love Me, Love the life i lead'
'Take my hand precious lord'
'Do You know who i am'
Theses Tracks get me all the time, And never fail to move me.
Everyone has some amazing songs that do get an emotional response, What Now My Love is an awesome song and performance, as is Unchained and My Way. There are so many that can Emotionally touch you, being that my Mother and Father have passed on, I cannot make it thru Mamma liked the roses or My Boy without shedding a tear, love these songs and that's why I'm even more of a fan of his music because he could make you feel the words and feel the emotions as he sang. So many to choose from! That's why he'll always be The King!! Thank U Elvis!! TCB!!
Definitely an interesting topic...
Songs like NEVER AGAIN, LOVE COMING DOWN, I'LL NEVER FALL IN LOVE AGAIN, BITTER THEY ARE HARDER THEY FALL, and especially PIECES OF MY LIFE have to be at the top of the list for me. And if you look at this particular list, you can obviously see the connection that they are all autobiographical songs, having a deep meaning for Elvis. Thus, I think these songs really provide a true emotional response for the listener.
The live version of MY WAY from the '77 CBS special also provides an emotional response, but in the case of this particular version of the song, the response comes more from seeing the video. I don't know think the song comes across the same if you just listen to the audio versus seeing the performance. I think once a fan as seen the performance, it takes on a whole different response for the fan...if that makes any sense...
TCB-World...OPEN for business!!!
Loving Arms for me, his voice,and the way he sings it is superb, you know he is wanting to get back to his love,listen to him when he sings ''Singing somewhere in the lonely night, dreamin of the arms that held me tight''......goosebumps every time.
Don't Cry Daddy probably get to me the most.
Long Black Limousine
You Gave Me A Mountain
"...unexpected deviations in the melody or the harmony. Music is most likely to tingle the spine, in short, when it includes surprises in volume, timbre and harmonic pattern."
...you won't forget me when I go.
The gospel songs "Stand by Me" "Somebody Bigger than You and I" "You'll Never Walk Alone" have strong emotional contact to me.
Also "Tender Feeling" from Kissin Cousins, "Home is Where the Heart is" from Kid Galahad, "That Someone You Never Forget"
many more.... really too many to mention.
Work in Progress!
Stand by me is another emotional song for me. Trilogy, countless others!
I always cry while listening to
Green green grass of home
and I feel deeply emotioned also with
Pieces of my life and
Help me make it tru the night
Before anyone did anything,
Elvis did everything
The power of a song is something amazing, But the power of Elvis singing a song is totally uplifting.
Another one I forgot to list is THERE'S A HONKY TONK ANGEL (WHO'LL TAKE ME BACK IN)...especially when Elvis sings the line "Oh, when there's an old friend out there...and she's waiting...Lord, she's happy just holding my hand." That is some GOOD STUFF right there, especially when you listen to the emotion in his voice on some of the undubbed outtakes on the PROMISED LAND FTD release!!
TCB-World...OPEN for business!!!

Illinois Putative Father Registry
National Center for Missing and Exploited Children
Illinois Amber Alert
Illinois Employer Report Form
IL, JUNE 15 -- The Illinois Department of Children and Family Services
announced today that its Decatur Field Office has been fully accredited
by the renowned New York City-based Council on Accreditation of Services
for Families and Children.
"This was no small accomplishment," said DCFS Director Jess
McDonald, who presented
an accreditation plaque to field staff personnel and honored them for
their ongoing hard work in maintaining accreditation standards.
involves thousands of hours refining field office operations to ensure
that it meets a set of rigorous, nationally established requirements
that cover every issue,
from personnel to safety to fiscal and program management," he
Decatur Field Office, located at 2900 North Oakland Avenue, is a 52-person
office responsible for serving Macon County. It is among 23 of approximately
90 DCFS field offices to have thus far attained this esteemed stamp
of approval, which the Department
is striving to attain for every field office in the state, as well as
the private child
welfare agencies it contracts with.
this ultimate goal would make Illinois the first state in the nation
to have all of its child welfare offices, both public and private, accredited.
The process is lengthy. Once a field office is targeted for accreditation,
year-long preparation begins, which includes reviewing every aspect
of how work is carried out by the office, examining in detail such aspects
as how well clients and the community are being served, reviewing how
well cases are documented and filed, and reviewing how well staff are
trained. The process requires input from the entire staff, as well as
outside participants such as court officials and foster parents.
examiners visited the Decatur site in March 1998 to see if it measured
up to standards. They later presented their findings to the national
COA panel. The Decatur Office received written verification of its accreditation
earlier this year.
Lincoln staff have really worked hard to achieve COA accreditation,"
said DCFS Central Region Administrator Don Vacca. "Their dedication
has been tremendous, and the results have meant our clients are receiving
better services."
to accreditation include increased client participation, improved case
management and documentation, and improved internal operations and accountability.
Additionally, accreditation builds confidence by clients, foster and
adoptive parents, community members, the courts and other child welfare
advocates in DCFS services.
am extremely proud of the Decatur Field Office," said McDonald.
"Their ongoing dedication to maintaining accreditation not only
speaks to their professionalism, but it attests to others that DCFS
strives to deliver the very best quality in child welfare services."

DICKIES BRAND RENEWS COMMITMENT To Deliver To The Laundry Industry
Today's laundry industry is more demanding than ever. Businesses across the laundry landscape need the products they trust in a timely manner and anything less simply no longer gets the job done.
Perhaps this mindset is truest within the uniform sector of the industry. From color and style to fit, comfort and durability, workers know and ask for the brands they like. It's up to the manufacturers to provide the workwear in a timely manner every time.
"If a single piece of product fails to reach a laundry customer on time, it likely means that someone isn't going to work tomorrow," said Alex Smith, Sr. Vice President of Occupational Wear at Dickies. "That's a lot of pressure on a brand with the business volume of Dickies, but it's pressure we proudly face head on every day in order to fulfill a commitment to our loyal customers."
Over a storied 90 year history, the Williamson- Dickie Manufacturing Company has built a proud heritage of providing tough, quality clothing to millions of workers throughout America and across the globe. It's the responsibility of the Occupational Wear division at Dickies to make sure that the customers get exactly what they need exactly when they need it.
"We heard the message loud and clear from our customers. Their passion and loyalty for the Dickies brand was stronger than ever, but they wanted deeper inventories and quicker delivery turnarounds in order to meet the high demand from their own customers," added Smith
To meet that demand, Smith and his team developed and implemented a service model to match the dependability and toughness of Dickies clothes and named it Dickies Workwear Delivered.
The first major shift under the new program was the creation of the Dickies Core Collection. The collection is comprised of the brand's core workwear products, which are the clothes that Dickies customers order often and in high quantities. The Dickies Core Collection is maintained with deep inventory positions that come with an unmatched delivery promise: core products ordered before 10 a.m. are shipped the same day; core products ordered
after 10 a.m. are shipped within 24 hours. The rest of the Dickies catalog carries an impressive 48-hours or less shipping promise.
The order fulfillment service level is 98 percent. Meaning 98 percent of core orders are filled in full, the same day. The muscle behind the enhanced logistics is the addition of two new Dickies distribution centers in Atlanta and Ontario, CA, joining the hometown facility in Fort Worth. Inside these distribution centers are hundreds of Dickies workers dedicated to the "Delivered" mission, along with some high-tech toys that help get the job done.
"Our growing distribution footprint, which is now coast to coast, is the engine of our success," noted Smith. "Dickies Workwear Delivered has become a way of life for our Occupational Wear team and it's changing the way our customers in the laundry sector do business."
The evolution of our occupational wear business and the Dickies Workwear Delivered service model is a direct reflection of the evolution of this mainstay American brand. From day one as a bib overall company to supplying uniforms to more than 9 million U.S. World War II soldiers, making durable clothes for the working American has been the commitment from the beginning.
Today, laundry managers and their teams of workers across the country count on Dickies for that same promise. Great clothes at a good price that get the job done every time.
"Our job at Dickies is simple, yet important," said Smith. "We strive to make our customers look good in the eyes of their customers. We are committed to delivering on that promise today, and for many years to come."

Chocolate Unwrapped

Wow, l loved your article on Chocolate. I always wondered how it was grown and where. My friend uses chocolate even in her vegetable soup and it is great.
I plan on reading it again to digest it all. Just last week I was at Gargis Lakeside Italian Restaurant off of Orange Avenue and on Lake Ivanhoe in Orlando's Art and Antique district. I had the BEST Tiramisu cake I ever ate there and that says a lot since my husband used to own Italian restaurants. They must use a better chocolate powder and the right blend on the top that was very palatable. I sure wish I had their recipe, but doubt they will give it up as it is a chef owned restaurant and they probably will not let their secret recipe out.

Search giant Google is expanding its US municipal broadband project in a bid to become a leading American carrier. Excuse me while I roll my eyes.
Whenever Google comes out with one of its grand pronouncements, particularly in this area, I feel compelled to chorus, "Here we go again." Perhaps this time I'm being too cynical. Perhaps not.
A bit of background: It's been four years since Google announced plans to get into municipal broadband services. After getting over 1,000 cities to respond eagerly to their initial invite early in 2010, the company started small, with rollouts of one-gigabit Internet connections to homes in Kansas City, Kansas. Three years later, the trial started in Provo, Utah, and Austin, Texas.
That was pretty much it. Until this week, when Google announced it has reached out to 34 US cities to chat about bringing them one-gigabit fiber broadband.
The company described its plan in a blog by Milo Medin, VP of Google Access Services:
