The eastern white pine panels in Matt Hancocks office, straight from the Hancock Lumber sawmills down the road, smell like a fresh pine forest. A large, scenic photograph that Hancock 90 proudly displays above his desk boasts the focus of a recent land dealthe purchase of famed Tumbledown Mountain in western Maine.
More and more in the lumber business of the 21st century, the twobusiness and natural beautygo hand in hand.
Hancock and his brother, Kevin, a Bowdoin graduate, run Hancock Land Company and Hancock Lumber Company, a family enterprise started in 1848. The brothers are the sixth generation. When their father passed away in 1997 and his sons inherited the business, Matt had been running the sawmills and Kevin was heading the retail stores.
The land company did a tiny bit of land business but bore no resemblance to the operation the Hancocks run today. It was a completely decaffeinated company, Matt Hancock said. We had to caffeinate it, add some sugar and bring it to life.
Since the reinvention of Hancock Land in 1997, the company has expanded its land base from 8,000 acres to almost 40,000 acres. The firm operates as two companies, Hancock Land and Hancock Lumber, managed by the same board of directors.
Its all part of an emerging trend in the timber industry, one that melds conservation and business in a relationship that benefits both interests. The Hancocks are leading the charge.
There are a lot of overnight conservationists out there, Matt Hancock said. The concept of being passionate about it is still relatively unique.
And passionate he is. In June 2001 Hancock Lumber was certified by the Forest Stewardship Council, one of the most rigorous certifying bodies in the world, and became one of only two FSC green-certified companies in Maine. Being green-certified means taking an approach to the land different from the approach more conventional, old-style timber companies take. Rather than harvesting all of the trees and then selling the land for development, he explains, the new thinking is long term. We like to go in and, to the best of our ability, manage poor form and poor quality trees on that site, Hancock said. Even though they are poor form or poor quality, we are still taking fiber to the market and maintaining a cash flow mechanism. In fifteen to seventeen years, well be able to go back in and do the same thing, instead of waiting more than 80 years for regrowth.
Tumbledown Mountain, just north of Mt. Blue State Park, is one of Maines favorite day hikes, with three peaks and a jewel-like alpine lake, according to the Maine Atlas and Gazetteer. To make the Tumbledown project work, Hancock Land put up the money to buy land that was for sale. The company then sold Tumbledown Pond and the well-known hiking trail as a conservation easement and sold another parcel to the state. As a private family enterprise, Hancock Land doesnt have the luxury of carrying long-term debt. The company worked with three state agencies and several conservation groups to ensure that conservation dollars would be available. Tumbledown is a classic multi-party endeavor, one of the things that makes these deals so interesting, Hancock said. I technically owned the land the trail is on for a few days, and I have to say it was pretty neat to go up there at that time.
Expanding the firms land base will add to the vitality of the industry and reduce its reliance on other landowners. The Casco and Sebago region, where the Hancocks operate, has been affected by Portlands suburban sprawl, which has led to forest fragmentation and liquidation harvesting. Youve got a lot of second homes, and houses are getting bigger, Hancock said, and thats fine and dandy for the retail business. But not managing that in a more appropriate way is leading to a shrinking [of the] land base thats needed to feed the forest products industry.
Hancock predicts that being green-certified will be a necessity to compete in the future. Buyers, such as Home Depot and conglomerate Time Warner, which relies on timber companies for pulp and paper, have been pressured by consumers to ensure that products are green. More and more, those major players will want to buy from green-certified companies, Hancock believes.
He recognizes that the first priority is for the company to succeed over the long term. I dont do this just because I feel a sense of responsibility that someone needs to be out in the marketplace doing this. I feel more passion and enthusiasm about being part of a six-generation legacy. When I look at the pictures of my dad and my grandfather and my great-grandfather and so on, I feel a sense of pride. I have three daughters and my brother has two, so it looks like its going to be a seventh generation of women, which is awesome.
Its fun stuff, he said. My colleagues [including Peter McKinley 87] here are fantastic. When you have a culture thats permeated with doing great stuff, its amazing the talent you can attract to carry this charge with you. We are growing as quickly as good deals present themselves. Were not going back to eight thousand acres. Abigail Wheeler 04

Wow, this sounds like so much fun.

"On my deathbed, my final wish is to have my ex-wives rush to my side so I can use my dying breath to tell them both to go to hell one last time." - Ron Swanson
It should definitely be a higher profile team than NM. Perhaps another Michigan H&H? Or maybe Miller can use his connection with Billy Donovan and get Florida back in Tucson... Now that would be a game.
I missed why Greg is pissed.
1. Talks were preliminary. No reason to spout off on your radio show about something that may not happen.
2. If anyone should make the announcement about the outdoor game in a football stadium, it should be the host and the program with all of the power in this decision making. It shouldn't be some rookie bozo coach who doesn't know how to keep his mouth shut.
As others have said, screw New Mexico.
My favorite reason would be that UNM is just one of many schools that we're discussing this with and was never considered the likely suitor or the favored suitor.
If God isn't a Wildcat fan, then why do I bleed Red and Blue?
Damn NM fans are bitter.
Appreciate that.
Byrne going to pull a Scott and be an asshole on principle?
Sounds like fun, if we're playing BYU Football at University of Phoenix Stadium, why not play Basketball with them at University of Phoenix Stadium too? Call it the stadium series.
It would be good just to get the rivalry with NM going again...indoors or out. Great games back in the 90s.
Story from the azstar, sheds some light on the situation.
Regardless what happens with UNM, it would be awesome to host this. Definitely going to that game if it happens and honestly I could care less who it happens against.

Letter to the Editor from BGE's VP and Chief Customer Officer, Jeannette M. Mills
Dear Editor,
As Maryland braces for the first significant snowfall of the winter, BGE has been making preparations to minimize the impact of potential power outages caused by the storm. We have been mobilizing employees, opening regional staging areas and bringing in extra crews and equipment from outside our service area.
These are just the steps we take in the days ahead of storms. Actually, our storm preparations are part of a year-round focus on reliability that includes maintaining and upgrading equipment, vegetation management, training personnel and continually improving our capabilities.
Even with preparations, storms still will result in power outages, especially when conditions include high winds and wet snow. Our crews will be moving quickly to restore power as soon as it is safe to do so, but damaged equipment and tough weather conditions can slow the process.
That is why we strongly advise customers to take the time now to prepare for the possibility of extended power outages. Please report your power outage. The easiest way to report and monitor an outage is through your mobile phone by visiting our mobile-optimized website at www.bge.com. You can also call 1.877.778.2222 to report an outage or downed wire.
For customers who rely on electric medical equipment, it's essential that you have back up power sources and prepare for the option of an alternate location to wait out the storm in case of an extended outage. Those who have generators should ensure they operate them safely.
For updates on the storm clean-up, visit our website, follow myBGE on Twitter and Facebook, and stay tuned to the news. We thank all BGE customers in advance for preparing to weather this storm.
Jeannette M. Mills

Reviews for Italian Sausage with Bow Ties(45)
Sort By :
My family loved this! Very easy to make - good enough for entertaining.
This was really good! I didn't have heavy cream so I used half cup whole milk and half cup parmesan cheese.. tasted wonderful.
Really good. Followed previous reviewers tip of adding spinach which is a brilliant idea, added color and a nice taste. Next time will make more sauce and add more tomato. Would also be nice with some sundried tomatoes.
I made this dish with our venison sausage and it was amazing! It was our Christmas dinner this year. Fantastic recipe. Next time I'll add spinach for color.
Easy to make and a big hit with the whole family.

What's the state of Phillip and Elizabeth's marriage when The Americans returns? — JuneWell, I may forgo watching the premiere with my parents since it features a scene that shows some pretty intense sexual wrestling between Phillip and Elizabeth. In other words, they're doing OK. "They're ready to be married," executive producer Joel Fields tells me. "What they're going to discover is having been fake-married for a long time, real marriage is not an easy thing. When you have two kids, there's family to contend with. Add to that their work is life-and-death and the future of mankind hangs in the balance, there's a little bit of pressure for them."

The Eurocopter Foundation partners with two NGOs to advance aeronautical education and aid disadvantaged communities
The Eurocopter Corporate Foundation has launched its first outreach initiatives through agreements with two France-based non-governmental organizations: the Castel Mauboussin Association and Acting for Life.
Marignane, 24 July 2013
By partnering with the Castel Mauboussin Association, which helps people with disabilities pursue careers in the aerospace industry, the Foundation will support the training of flight assistants for helicopter emergency medical service (HEMS) flights – a new occupation now mandated by the European Aviation Safety Agency.
The new regulation, which requires the presence of one flight assistant per HEMS flight starting in 2014, will further enhance mission standards and flight security, creating approximately 130 new jobs in France. The Castel Mauboussin Association will train three disabled individuals with financial support from the Foundation over the coming year, beginning with a young woman in September.
Working with Acting for Life, the Foundation will support disadvantaged communities in developing countries, beginning with the implementation of a three-year integrated community development program in Mexico, where Eurocopter has been present for more than 30 years.
Launching this month, the project endeavors to improve local health and nutrition and foster economic development in the poverty-stricken Sierra Madre Oriental mountain range. Assistance for families will include access to training, micro-financing services, organic food plots, and clean sources of water collection. The model will then expand to other rural areas of Mexico.
"Supporting initiatives that promote youth development and help disadvantaged people and communities is at the heart of our values, whether it's through the direct application of our aircraft for humanitarian aid, or by providing assistance for organizations making a difference on the ground every day," said Eurocopter President & CEO Guillaume Faury. "These two partnerships take our commitments to new heights and represent the first of many that will be supported by our Foundation."
The Eurocopter Corporate Foundation was created in 2012 as an independent, apolitical and non-profit legal entity that unites the company's humanitarian activities under one framework with a focus on emergency response; aid for developing countries; aid for the ill, handicapped, and those living in extremely difficult conditions; and youth development through the transfer of aeronautical know-how. More information on the Eurocopter Corporate Foundation is available on its website: www.eurocopterfoundation.com.

There is a saying that goes "fooll me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." It is something I should have tattooed on me because it is near and dear to my heart. When it comes to being arrested for driving under the influence charges I am most definitely the fool. My first DUI charge came when I was living in Kentucky as a young teenager. Alcohol and driving were both new to me and because I lived in the rural part of the state I felt invincible to authorities. The second DUI came after just having two beers and driving home one night. I lived in Colorado at the time and the blood alcohol level content had just surpassed the state minimum. When you get a second DUI you start to question your own judgment but at least you know what to expect with the proceedings. Unlike my first time down this road I contacted a DUI attorney immediately. This is because I wanted to keep myself from wrongfully incriminating things I could say. I no I need legal counsel to properly and successfully navigate these waters and I didn't want to make any of the mistakes I made the first time around. To ensure I was getting the best legal representation that I could afford I contacted Larazza Legal.
I chose Lazzara legal after searching through a few websites where people were able to blog about their experiences. Person after person who had used them for their criminal defense cases raved about how confident and call they were in representing their case. I think a big misconception during stressful times like a DUI is that you can choose a lawyer who will win you a case or you can choose one that will lose you a case. Many people lose sleep over this decision is they believe their fate is tied to this critical decision. The truth is actually that you have already lost your case and you were just trying to do some damage control. If a state trooper pulls you over and performs a roadside sobriety test or has you breathe into a breathalyzer that evidence is almost impossible to overturn in court. It is mostly just your word against theirs and since they are trusted officials with the law they usually will win that fight. The best state of mind for someone to be in during DUI court proceedings is to hope for the best in damage control and to be happy with a reduction in your sentence. If you go on the Larazza website they will tell you time and time again that one of their primary functions is to protect you from obstacles and frustrations during this time. You certainly don't want your sentence to be increased or get worse but you also don't want to deal with miscommunication and poor case management as you may find with some cheaper firms. Not all DUI lawyers are created equal and only Larazza legal has been given an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau.

EXCELLENT DAILY SPECIAL – I am a Chinese and moved here from Houston about year and half ago. I love to eat and always looking for good Chinese restaurants. Compare to Houston, I know my chance are not very good. I went to one of the top rated Chinese restaurant to eat last week and the owner told me about Pearl Inn. They will go to eat at Pearl Inn when they want some Cantonese style Chinese food. I thought a famous Chinese restaurant owner come here to eat it has to be good. I am glad that I pay them a visit today. The outside of restaurant need some face lift, but inside are very nicely decorated. It looks much better than a lot of Chinese restaurants I have visited in the past. I heard it is owned and operated by a couple from Hong Kong. Husband attends the Kitchen and Wife does everything else. I found her very pleasant and friendly. It does take a while to get your food, but you know it is freshly prepare by an expert. They serve daily special for $5 include main dish, fried rice, egg roll and ice tea. If you want soup it is $1 extra. It serves until 5:00pm and all day on Sunday. There are a lot of choices. I ordered something off the menu which is Singapore style fried rice noodle so if you like something even is not on the menu make sure ask. I also ordered the fish with Jalapeño and combination fried rice. They are all very good. I thought my fish will be some kind of fried fish nugget but no they are actually big piece of fish fillet. For $5, I can't believe it. My Singapore noodle is delicious with just right amount of heat. It might be too hot for someone else but I love spicy food. The amount of the food is huge. I ordered three dishes. I got three big Styrofoam containers full of food and all for $20. They can last me for a week. Pearl Inn server a lot of typical dishes plus a lot of Cantonese style dishes and they also have a lot of Hunan and Sichuan style dishes as well. I prefer Pearl Inn than Kim Wah on Bandera and Phoenix on West Ave. Kim Wah is too expensive and they do not give you a lot of food. Phoenix is kind of dirty inside and the foods are nothing special.
Pearl Inn Chinese Restaurant – I agree there is no call for the rudeness exemplifed by the waiting staff very unprofessional. When I questioned the price on the bill I was told that the price posted was not right on the menu and that is the way it is. She wasy very ugly and lacks the key ingredient that all businesses thrive on and that is "good friendly service" which not only retains but brings other customers as well. Those that gave the restaurant a good review that is your prerogative. My experience was horrible and I will not be returning no matter how good and cheap the food is....and if asked will let people know....
Very good food at a great price! – Believe me, I know good Chinese food, and this is GOOOOOOOOOOOOD Chinese food! I now go there so often I don't even have to order...they just bring me my favorite dish. They also --- Mama Pearl, Papa Pearl, Daughter Pearl and Son Pearl --- treat me like family when I go.
No better Chinese, no better price, no better service! – Show me just ONE other place where I can get all the GOOD Chinese food I can eat for less than SIX DOLLARS!
You CAN'T...and that's a fact!
Decor SCHMEcor! Who the heck cares?
This is a very pleasant, very clean place, and the entire family treats every customer VERY well. That and the prices and the SUPER Chinese food keep me going back again and again!
IIf you're critical of this place, then you're going to be griping about the clouds, the wings and the harp music some place else later on....MAYbe!
Good Food – After reading some reviews was worried about stopping by but we did, the decor is outdated but the person helping us was friendly and the food was great.Big portions.Although it was not busy it seemed their was many to go orders being picked up.Will definately visit again.
Fantastic! Poor reviewers must be on Quack! – Fantastic! I don't understand how anyone could give a poor review. They must be on Quack! - moose - Today
I was surprised to see poor reviews for Pearl Inn. The food is quite good, large portions, good price, good service, Family owned and operated. I found them to have good attitudes and friendly service. I go there at least once per month and for several years now.
The poor ratings I have seen here are not justified. You should try it yourself. The decor is modern, clean but granted, not a chinese decor.
You will love the food, the people and the location is not difficult to get to at all.
Bizzare – Spotted the restaurant and made our way in which wasn't convenient. From the outside it looks like an authentic Chinese restaurant. Upon entering, the decor was so outdated, it almost made me sick to stay there. Everything is the hue of pink, mirrors with brass trim, tables with pink table cloths and oil cloth coverings; something directly out of the late 70's or early 80's. The silverware and dishes must be original to that time period as well. The service for us was fine, but for other patrons, the service was definitely very rude and agressive. One person actually left after questioning the menu. Others were snickering because they couldn't believe it. We were overcharged on our bill but were not comfortable with bringing it to their attention. We ordered egg rolls not knowing the lunches came with them. Not impressed with scrambled egg added to the egg rolls. The egg drop soup was too heavy on the egg side and very thick, not impressed there. Ordered Sweet and sour Pork and the Golden Delight, spicy. The pork in the sweet and sour was ok, but the sauce was pretty bad and that was poured all over ruining the dish. The other dish was good for the price. We would not return. The food was mediocre at best and the service was one of the worst we've seen.
Best and fastest chinese and really cheap! – A family run restaurant that serves up amazingly and fresh chinese food that's usually $5-8 for lunch including drink and an egg roll! And it comes out in less than 10 minutes tops. Excellent variety of pork, chicken, beef, and even shrimp cooked however you want it or go with their specials. Great place for fast chinese food - way better than any of the buffets that are around it ! We just stumbled upon it one day and have been going back ever since.

Nonna as Nona but to rhyme with Donna. I probably should have been more clear on that. Or mentioned it in the first place. Oops!
But I don't think in honoring a name has to be perfect--it's the intention that counts.

I would like to say its okay since you are pronouncing it like Donna with an N...but I'm Italian and grew up calling my maternal grandmother Nona. I just can't get past it. If i could look past that, i still wouldnt like it. It just doesnt have a very appealing sound to me. For a middle name sure, a nickname would be pushing it but a first name? No. I just can't see it working. But that is my opinion..Love, Claire

After this thing with General Petraeus...anyone still think what Jarrett said was nonsense?
Last edited by txradioguy; 11-10-2012 at 05:03 AM.
Who did I leave out to dry? Those who want more war and debt?Every vote counts against the cut throats in the DNC. And you left people hung out to dry.
See point 1.Then why did you help get Obama re-elected? You just helped this country get four more years of what you claim to despise.
It's like talking to a piece of toast with you. Your ignorance forbids you from looking at anything without that Bush "With us or against us" mentality. I am not with or against anybody. I simply voted for the candidate I wanted to win. It wasn't a protest vote. It wasn't an attempt to feel self-righteous and take a shot at the man, if you will. It was a vote for the person I think best exemplifies what America is about and the person who could preside over this country best. And it definitely wasn't out of apathy. Anyone who voted for "Anyone but Obama" voted with apathy.Did your vote help Romney? No? Then there's your answer.
Cool story bro
As for the debt, it rose slightly under Bush and a Republican congress, much faster under Bush and a Democratic congress, and metastasized under Obama and a Democratic congress. With a newly empowered Obama and a neutered Republican majority, we can pretty much guarantee more debt than we would have had under a Romney/Republican house and senate. You threw away your vote on someone who could not win, in order to send a message. We got your message. You don't have a clue.

"Just misses having the opportunity to rotate quarterbacks" - good one. Still laughing.
Maybe Les Miles is just taking a shot in the dark. Maybe he wants more depth at the quarterback spot. Maybe the potential of any ex-starting, BCS-level quarterback is too good to pass up. Maybe he's still not over losing Gunner Kiel (swagger, confidence, and chest be damned).
Or maybe Miles just misses having the ability to rotate quarterbacks.
Over the weekend, former Penn State starter Rob Bolden made an official visit to LSU. According to The New Orleans Times-Picayune (what's left of it), a source claims Bolden might transfer to Baton Rouge now that the NCAA has declared it open season on the Nittany Lions' roster. Bolden could join the Tigers without having to sit out this season.
Bolden is a former 4-star prospect who became the first freshman to start a season opener in Happy Valley in 100 years. He went on to make 16 starts total before losing his job.
Down in Baton Rouge, Zach Mettenberger is expected to bring a new downfield passing element to LSU's offense in 2012. (He himself came to LSU from SEC rival Georgia… via the juco route.) But behind Mettenberger on the depth chart are two redshirt freshman. So having a junior with big-time starting experience fall out of the sky probably isn't the worst thing that could happen.
We all know Miles' devotion to Jordan Jefferson. Jarrett Lee — the passing quarterback for the Tigers last season — handled the job admirably while Jefferson dealt with a suspension. The combination of Jefferson's return and Lee's struggles at Tuscaloosa gave Miles enough ammo to make the switch at starter. Lee became little more than an afterthought, was given a mop-up snap in the SEC Championship Game, and was completely ignored as Jefferson took his turn struggling against Alabama in the BCS title game.
So might Bolden become a change-of-pace guy in the same way that Jefferson/Lee flip-flopped at times the past couple of years? Not likely.
Below are the combined 2010 and 2011 numbers for Jefferson and Bolden:
|Comp %
|Rush Yds
|J. Jefferson
|R. Bolden
As you can see, Jefferson was much more of a running threat while Bolden — a dual-threat QB in high school — was used as more of a traditional passer at Penn State. Now, it must also be pointed out that Jefferson was playing on a better team than Bolden and that fact no doubt aided his overall numbers. Taking that into account and noting that Jefferson's numbers were from his last two years while Bolden's came from his first two seasons, it's easy to see why Miles and the Tigers would have some interest.
If nothing else, Bolden's start as a passer has been in the ballpark with Jefferson's finish as a passer. There's still room for improvement. And he's got more experience than either of LSU's current backups.
While many will pooh-pooh this idea — and don't you hate having an idea pooh-poohed? — we don't see the problem. Bolden has experience and potential. But he doesn't appear to be the type of runner at the collegiate level who's likely to make Miles want to take Mettenberger off the field just for a change of pace.
If that's the case, win-win.
But if Miles lands Bolden and tries to unleash him as a runner (a la Jefferson), then Tiger fans might once again be left asking, "Why is he in the game right now and not the other guy?"
[...] terms of adding an experienced ex-starter behind starting QB Zach Mettenberger, the move is a sound one. Bolden will be a junior this year. The Tigers' next two reserves at that spot are [...]

TELLURIDE – Pump tracks, or small-scale riding parks replete with appropriately scaled jumps and berms, have begun cropping up in bike-savvy communities around Colorado, and Telluride is now among their ranks, thanks to the local cycling organization, the San Miguel Bicycle Alliance.
SMBA will host a grand opening of the newly minted Pump Track on Tuesday, July 17, with a party, barbecue and pump park unveiling, at 6 p.m. at the pump track (located adjacent to the skate park in Telluride Town Park.)
This week, SMBA Vice President Trevor Martin stood on the periphery of the just-constructed pump track as volunteers helped to put the finishing touches on the Town Park's new 45-foot wide, 75-foot- long bike park.
"This is really just planting the seed, by capturing the attention of kids and older bike enthusiasts as well," Martin said of the pump track, which he designed and helped build with the assistance of nearly 40 local volunteers. "It's going to do the same thing the skate park does, in bringing the whole gamut together, and giving people an introduction to mountain biking."
The pump track is a small, rectangular park where riders can hone their skills on small to medium-sized roller style jumps and bermed turns, shaped out of dirt. Pump tracks are steadily growing in popularity across the state thanks to a number of factors, including accessibility for riders of nearly all levels.
"It's a good workout and skill-builder, as well as a mind-builder, because you're always doing something. As you go faster, the more rapid-fire it gets. It really opens up a lot of possibilities" for improving mountain-bike skills, Martin said, noting that the pump track isn't specific to downhill or cross-country riding, but is beneficial to all styles of mountain biking.
The pump track concept was initially suggested by the local nonprofit cycling advocacy group's membership. The organization held regular meetings throughout last winter and heard from members that a pump track could be an excellent addition to the local cycling landscape. The Town of Telluride and Telluride's Parks and Recreation Department approved the concept in October, and construction began on the Telluride pump track just before the Bluegrass Festival in mid-June. Thanks to a horde of dedicated volunteers including Martin, Nate Smith, Tom Fields, Rich Shoup, and other local bike enthusiasts, as well as the ten loads of dirt Telluride Gravel trucked in at no cost to the organization, the bike park will be ready for its first official riders next week.
Martin created the design relying on the expertise of pump track guru and mountain biker Lee McCormack, a Boulder-based biker who has designed pump tracks and written about their construction. The Telluride pump track was designed specifically to fit the Town Park site.
"This is a benefit to all-age riders, and provides an activity the entire community can come out and enjoy together," Martin said.
SMPA President Adam Black expects the addition of a pump track to the Telluride town park will help promote the development of biking skills to people of all ages in the Telluride community. "We are seeing pump tracks show up in various towns across the country and were extremely pleased that the town of Telluride and Town Parks and Recreation received our vision and plan as positively as they did," he said.
One of SMBA's primary objectives is to facilitate the growth of cycling opportunities within Telluride and the region. Cyclists already have the SMBA to thank for facilitating the opening of the Mountain Village Bike Park, as well as working to bring back the Full Tilt in Telluride mountain bike race.
The Grand Opening Celebration takes place Tuesday, July 17 at 6 p.m. All SMBA members and any interested community members are invited; SMBA will provide mini-clinics, tips and tricks for riding Telluride's new bike venue.

Through early management, the progression of heart failure can be slowed and hospital re-admittance can be greatly reduced. Congestive heart failure rehabilitation is conducted in one-hour sessions, three times a week, and is designed to help you reach your potential for independence through:
This group of enthusiastic cardiac rehabilitation graduates is a familiar sight at local races and around northern Colorado.

'It is not so much a house as a phenomenon' Quentin Bell once said of Charleston. It was in 1916 that the phenomenon came into being, as Duncan Grant, Vanessa Bell and David Garnett made the move from Suffolk to Charleston, where Clive Bell and Maynard Keynes were also to be regular visitors. As conscientious objectors Grant and Garnett were exempted from military service providing they continued to work on the land and both found employment on a nearby farm. It was Virginia and Leonard Woolf, who lived locally, who had originally spotted the late 17th century Sussex farmhouse situated at the foot of the South Downs and encouraged Vanessa to make the move. Over the next 60 years the house was decorated by Bell and Grant, they painted walls, doors and furniture and produced decorated ceramics and needlepoint designs for their home.
After the death of Duncan Grant The Charleston Trust was formed to preserve the house and its remarkable collection, it has been described as 'One of the most difficult and imaginative feats of restoration current in Britain'.
Charleston now hosts an active range of other associated events . Amongst these are a summer school, an annual festival, the Charleston Gallery, the quarterly Canvas publication, the Crafts Council listed shop and the continuing activities of the Friends of Charleston (who are now 1,400 strong).

Charleston is the only surviving complete example of the decorative work of Bell and Grant, with walls, doors and furniture painted in their exuberant style. The house shows an evolution in decorative style throughout its different rooms. Initially only Vanessa's bedroom (now the library), Clive Bell's study door and window and Duncan's bedroom were decorated. Later the designs spread throughout the house, including the spare room in 1936 and the garden room in 1945.
Charleston not only houses an impressive collection of art by its inhabitants but also a varied collection of other artist's work including sculpture by Renoir and Gimond and paintings by Fry, Picasso, Sickert and Derain.
The collection is continually developing - recent acquisitions include Duncan Grant's 'Self-Portrait in a Turban' 1909 purchased with support from The National Lottery through the Heritage Lottery Fund, The National Art Collections Fund and The Pilgrim Trust and Duncan Grant's copy of Piero della Francesca's 'Portrait of Federico da Montefeltro, Duke of Urbino' 1904/5 (this purchase was the first project to be supported by the Quentin Bell Commemoration Fund founded in 1997). Amongst recent loans are 'Flowers against Chintz' by Duncan Grant, 1956, from the Arts Council Collection and a bronze bust of Lytton Strachey by Stephen Tomlin, circa 1930, on loan from the Keatley Trust. The Tate Gallery have lent two pictures to the collection each season since 1993.

Tablet sales have taken off, and now Microsoft (MSFT, Fortune 500) is making a huge tablet push with Windows 8 and Windows RT. Most of today's tablets boast high-resolution sharp displays for playing games, watching high-def movies and TV shows, taking pictures, surfing the web and chatting over video. Yet tablets aren't evolving quite as quickly as smartphones, and the tablet market as a whole won't be radically changing, says Tim Stevens, executive editor of Engadget.com. Expect faster and longer battery life and better resolution from future tablets.
These stories of no-holds-barred competition, contempt, and all-out conflict shaped the modern business world.

Any way to play it casually? or am I still required to sign my life over to even make a reasonable dent in the game?
I quit WoW awhile ago, but I am interested in this.
Any way to play it casually? or am I still required to sign my life over to even make a reasonable dent in the game?
I quit WoW awhile ago, but I am interested in this.
Im probably gonna get it next week. I'm a pretty casual gamer anyways. I wind up questing with friends/guildmates and running the occasional instance. I've been able to get into a few raids as well. I dunno what your goal is in terms of the game, but I just log on, have some fun, log off. I have a 3 hour time limit. If you can't complete a run in 3 hours, its time to log off and try again later.
Having to play three hours a day just to "keep up," (and I wasn't a serious raider, never more than one day per week) is what made me quit in the first place. WoWdetox.com is what helps me keep from coming back. Just curious if WOTLK is monumental in some way, or more of the same. I'd ask old guildies etc., but I know they're all hardcore addicts, much more hardcore than I was.
The way I figure it, if I don't know about WOTLK, then I don't know what Im missing...maybe this thread was a bad idea. haha.
It's pretty much a casual gamer paradise now. The top guild of all WoW beat every instance at heroic within hours of release. I quit before BC (I was a hardcore raider unfortunately) and came back for WOTLK. Death Knights are pretty badass though.
Support Be the Match through Tanner's site
It's more of the same. Prettier. Funner. But still the same game. If you enjoy the leveling of your characters, then you'll enjoy it. It's pretty much a reason for people who were at 70 for a year to still have something to do. Guess it's better than a kick in the balls.

I know the point of Elsie Marie's Kids Clothing Week Challenge (KCWC) is to put in an hour every day cutting, knitting, pattern-making, or sewing, but that's not exactly how my weekly schedule functions.
The days I work with patients, I usually fall asleep in bed reading to my son around 8 pm. There isn't much sewing or anything else getting done on those evenings.
But, in the spirit of KCWC, I did opt to finish up a small style project that's been on my idea/project board for several weeks.
My son picked out a couple of five dollar tees from Old Navy in February. Since then, I personalized a green tee with his initial, but I got stuck on what to do with the grey tee. I didn't want to make another one with his initial.
Then it occurred to me, with his profound interest in the Angry Birds game and noticing any merchandise related to the game anywhere at anytime, I decided to create a felt applique that was my interpretation of an angry bird.
This is what I made.
Closer look:
Once I freehand traced out pieces of felt, I cut them out and pinned them on the red background until I was happy with how it looked.
I had to redo the eyes and brows more than once.
I still think the eyeliner looks like a ninja bird or a linebacker bird, but hey, I think the overall idea is there.
Can't WAIT to see my son's reaction when I present him with his tee.
[UPDATE: He LOVED it!]
Although I still have gobs of fun sewing projects on my list, I do plan to attempt to make my son a driver's cap from some retro fabrics. He's totally into wearing them, but he only has a black and gray one…I think it's about time to add a pop of color into a hat for him.
Are you participating in KCWC? What are you sewing or creating?

I purchased this hammock to replace a sturdy old cotton rope hammock that had seen better days. Unpacking the hammock, I was very pleased. It was beautiful. The color was lovely, the weave so soft that I wouldn't know it wasn't a natural material. The wood was a great color and seemed well finished. We thought it looked great. Those are the good points. The only good points..... The bad? We found that the rope on this hammock was so thin that even when stretched as taut as was humanly possible to stretch this onto our large, durable metal hammock frame, this cheap hammock almost folded the user in half once you got into it. So we tried to make the hammock tighter. No go. Despite the completely stretched hammock now being literally parallel to the ground at 4' up, ( a ridiculous look by the way. A little higher up and I could have used it for a bad shade cloth) when I got into the hammock my rear end still almost touched the ground! I weigh 105lbs, so its not like I was putting a strain on the hammock. My friend then got into the hammock and his rump at 175lbs did hit the deck. Pretty hilarious. Less like a hammock and more like a Saturday Night Live sketch. Think Fred Flintstone. It would have been truly a laugh riot had I not paid for this. PS: the unfinished ends of the rope...and there were a lot of them....were only scotch taped. Scotch taped? Yeah. Not kidding. Scotch taped. Overall a very pretty, very cheaply made hammock. Yep....It goes back tomorrow. Maybe if you had two trees to string it across really high up it might be better..... Nah. Excellent hammock for punking your friends! Lousy hammock for lazing the weekends away. Glad that Overstock makes returns so easy!
I Love my new Hammock!!,I couldn't be happier, you will not be disappointed,we had always gone with a cotton material, they do not compare with how soft this feels !!!!!!!!!!!!! Buy one now!!
The entire family (and friends!) use this hammock frequently and it is awesome!
This was a gift and he loved everything about this hammock.
This hammock is awesome. It's wide and sturdy. The color is really nice. I would definitely recommend!
I am replacing an old (6 years) cotton rope hammock with this one. The cotton rope has fallen apart due to weather and use. This one is a very soft poly rope and so far it looks and feels good. The price was very good relative to other rope hammocks. Time will tell how well it wears.
Hammock string broke in first 5 minutes of use. I weigh about 190 and it was supposed to be for up to 450 pounds. Can't say I'm very happy to have to pay the shipping fees for the return given how fast the product was damaged.
Very Happy folds away for winter months. I love it
a nice hammock, holds a xl adult no problem. and is soft!!
Second time I have ordered here, and the last, as the description doesn't fit the product, both times measurements were off. Unfortunately the remedies are time-consuming and frustrating. Too short hammock and too small rug pad.

Washington, DC (May 15, 2013) – The Gates Millennium Scholars (GMS) Program – one of 400 scholarships administered by UNCF (the United Negro College Fund), the nation's largest and most effective minority education program – recently announced the selection of this year's cohort of 1,000 new students. The GMS Program will award the Class of 2013 Gates Millennium Scholars good-through-graduation scholarships which can be used to pursue degrees in any undergraduate major at the accredited college or university of the recipients' choice.
Of the 1,000 new scholars, 10 of the students are from South Carolina. They include:
"Today more than ever it is important that we provide our young people with the support they need to get to and through college. For the 20,000 young men and women who will attend college as Gates Millennium Scholars throughout the program, the leadership training, mentoring and financial, academic, and social support they receive will enable them to become college graduates and the next generation of leaders we need to remain competitive in the 21st century," said Michael L. Lomax, Ph.D., president and CEO, UNCF. "We are grateful for The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation's support of the Gates Millennium Scholars Program because it is not only an investment in the futures of these students, but also in the country's economic and social strength and competitiveness ."
Established in 1999 with the goal of developing Leaders for America's Future™, the Gates Millennium Scholars Program is funded by a $1.6 billion grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Nearly 200 Gates Scholars have come from South Carolina since the program's inception. The GMS Program is removing barriers to education for students of color. Scholars attend and graduate from 800 of the most selective private and public schools in the country, including Ivy League colleges, flagship state universities, UNCF member institutions and other minority serving institutions.
A Gates Millennium Scholar Alumnus, Tommy Preston, Jr., was recently named the national president of the Gates Millennium Scholars Alumni Association, an organization consisting of more than 12,000 recipients of the scholarship since its inception. Mr. Preston received his scholarship in 2003 and attended the University of South Carolina (USC) where he graduated cum laude with a degree in Political Science and History and earned his Juris Doctor from the University of South Carolina School of Law.
"It is truly an honor to be the new national president of the Gates Millennium Scholars Alumni Association. Through this scholarship, my fellow Scholar alumni and I feel a deep obligation to make a difference in our communities. Being the leader of this group of brilliant, highly motivated, and talented alumni is a remarkable experience," said Tommy Preston. "Over the next two years I will have the opportunity to work with the Gates Millennium Scholars Program to engage our alumni in improving our country. As America's future leaders, there are no limits to what we can do and I'm looking forward to seeing the impact we will make during my tenure as president and in the years to come."
During his time at USC, Mr. Preston served as student body president, was the student member on the University's Board of Trustees, and served as a student advisor for the US Department of Education. He founded the popular Cocky's Reading Express™, a statewide literacy initiative that provides books to almost 60,000 children in South Carolina. Mr. Preston is also the recipient of the prestigious Algernon Sydney Sullivan Award, the highest honor awarded to a USC student.
Mr. Preston is currently an attorney at Nexsen Pruet, LLC in Columbia. He is still active at his alma mater and in the community. He currently serves on the My Carolina Alumni Association Board of Governors and is the vice chair and chair-elect of the University of South Carolina Board of Visitors.
About GMS

Continuing Gates Scholars may request funding for a graduate degree program in one of the following discipline areas: computer science, education, engineering, library science, mathematics, public health or science. The goal of GMS is to promote academic excellence by providing thousands of outstanding students, who have significant financial need, the opportunity to reach their full potential.

COLUMBIA CITY ŌĆö A Columbia City athlete saw his cross country season end early, and now has seen the next step in his career begin early.
Evan Harney, a senior, was injured midway through the 2013 season for the Eagles.
However, in late October he signed with Indiana Tech to continue his running career.
The move comes early in the recruiting process.
Harney will run cross country and distance events in track for the Warriors.
TERRE HAUTE ŌĆö Columbia City senior Samantha Roush ended her cross country career with a 44th-place finish at the state meet at Lavern Gibson Championship Course Saturday.
Roush clocked a time of 19:10.8, which was a pace of 6:10 per mile.
Kelcy Welch of Carmel came in first with a time of 17:53.9.
For Roush, it was the fourth time in her career at the state meet, as she made it all four years in high school.
Her best finish was when she came in seventh two years ago as a sophomore.
Columbia City Head Cross Country Coach Bob Fahl said Roush had a solid race Saturday.
BREMEN ŌĆö A sports team often measures its quality by its competition.
For ChurubuscoŌĆÖs football team, the stick measures highly despite a Friday night sectional semifinal loss to Bremen.
The ninth-ranked Eagles lost to the 14th-ranked Lions 35-28. Churubusco Head Football Coach Paul Sade said his team has a great deal to take away from the contest.
ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs probably the best team weŌĆÖve played, one of the best programs we have played,.ŌĆØ he said.
LARWILLŌĆö WhitkoŌĆÖs middle school football teams have finished their respective 2013 seasons.
The seventh grade team scored a win Oct. 16 against Crestview by a 28-16 score.
Spencer Sroufe scored two touchdowns and had an extra point, Collin Loe scored one touchdown and Jack Curless had one.
The eighth grade Wildcats also won Oct. 16 against Crestview 12-0. Touchdowns were scored by Hunter Reed and Chaz Stanley.
The seventh grade team ended the year at 2-7 and the eighth grade squad finished 4-5.
LEBANON, Ohio ŌĆö A Columbia City High School sophomore captured a Golf Week Junior Tour (GJT) win last weekend.
Tyler Green won the tour event at Shaker Run in Lebanon, Ohio.
It took a playoff for Green to do it, as he and Spencer Dobbs both shot 152 over the two days to tie in the boysŌĆÖ 15-19 division.
On the second playoff hole, though, Green nearly had a hole-in-one. His tee shot landed just three feet from the cup. He finished and won the tournament on that hole.
TERRE HAUTE ŌĆö A Columbia City cross country runner will step onto the course one more time Saturday.
Lady Eagle senior Samantha Roush qualified for the state meet, which will be this Saturday in Terre Haute.

The girls race will be at 1:45 p.m. at LaVern Gibson Championship Cross Country Course in Terre Haute. The boys race is at 1 p.m.
CHURUBUSCO ŌĆö ChurubuscoŌĆÖs football team will likely have a more difficult path to a victory in this weekŌĆÖs sectional semifinal.
One week after scoring a 28-13 home win against Eastside, the Eagles have to hit the road to play Class 2A 14th-ranked Bremen.
The Lions defeated Manchester 49-21 in their sectional quarterfinal game last week.
Churubusco ended the 2013 regular season ranked ninth.
For both teams, it will be a unique showdown. ŌĆÖBusco enters 8-2, and Bremen 7-3, but both schools are undefeated against Class 2A competition.
NORTHEAST INDIANA ŌĆö Postseason play in football is often used as a measuring stick.
The subject of the measuring is how different high school football conferences stack up as far as quality is concerned.
Since most conferences have very few games played out of the league, such assessing is difficult until sectionals start.
While by no means perfect, postseason play and performance is used as a gauge.
Here is a glance at how area conferences performed during week one of sectional action.
Indian SpringsŌĆÖ cross country teams ended their seasons with an awards banquet celebrating their past and looking with anticipation to the future.
Outstanding Rookies, Life Skills, and Overall Awards were presented.
