"Ensenada" Top 5 Page for this destination Ensenada by Pounder73
Ensenada Travel Guide: 299 reviews and 653 photos
A small harbor town about 90 minutes south of San Diego. (not including time spent crossing the border). There are several ways you can get there; car, boat or bus. I haven?t gone by boat (Carnival Cruise Lines) - and you can find out about the other two ways in the travel section. Ensenada has basically a one street tourist area that incorporates about 8 blocks, filled with bars, places to eat and little shops and hotels. This place caters to a weekend party crowd from San Diego. There are some good restaurants around town, but the best tacorias are a couple blocks away from the touristy parts. I like going down and chill?n here for a weekend. The people there are very warm and friendly and the beer and food are cheap.
- Pros:Fun, Friendly, Cheap, Close to San Diego
- Cons:Small - after a weekend, you will be done
- In a nutshell:A fun weekend getaway...

The Buffalo DriveStation TurboUSB External Hard Drive is a 500GB external hard drive that claims to be faster than its rivals.
When you're handed a box with a 500GB external hard drive inside, it's a gift. When, according to the writing on the box, the drive inside is "up to 37 percent faster" than most other external USB drives, it becomes a challenge for this reviewer to disprove. That's the gauntlet Buffalo Technology threw down with its DriveStation TurboUSB External Hard Drive.
Of course, it couldn't be true. A hard drive is a hard drive, and whether SCSI, PATA, SATA or SAS, they each have a rated data-transfer speed. Split open the case of the Buffalo drive and you'd find a SATA 3Gbps (gigabits per second) hard disk inside. We could discuss the huge inaccuracies of rating hard drives by their burst speeds, but if we deflate all of the fantasy in the world, it would become a dull place indeed.
The DriveStation attaches to your PC via a USB 2.0 port and that's a 480Mbps pipeline. So, logically, whichever is the slower of the two, the drive or the connection to your PC, will be the limiting factor, and it will always be that way. Well, at least that's the way it would be if we weren't surrounded by magic - or, as some would like to call it, software.
Included on the setup disc (which really isn't because the drive requires no setup; it's plug-and-play) is Buffalo's TurboUSB application. There is some mystery surrounding exactly what it does, but the premise goes something like the following. You install it on your computer, you enable it when the Buffalo drive is connected, you go on about your work.
The Turbo application, according to Buffalo, "adjusts" the amount of overhead required by the standard USB driver, trimming away some of the redundancies and USB delaying tactics (protocols) that normally slow down USB communications.
If you're technically paranoid, that will sound frightening to you. Interfere with the normal operation of the universe!? Why, that's heretical! On the other hand, whether you call it advanced technology or magic, it does appear to work with no obvious side effects.
Without TurboUSB enabled, the DriveStation is fairly mundane. Its 14 percent CPU utilisation and 29.6Mbps average read speed parallels the results achieved by a SimpleTech external USB drive, which scored a 12 percent CPU utilisation and 28.9Mbps average read. Even their burst speeds were relatively the same at 32.1Mbps for Buffalo and 30.3Mbps for SimpleTech. (Both drives were tested using SimpliSoftware's HDTach benchmark.)
Enable Turbo mode and the DriveStation suddenly swings up to 35.2Mbps average read while its burst speed goes through the roof at 1,783.7Mbps. Given that result, and even without knowing the exact details of the process (Buffalo doesn't seem ready to divulge them), you can probably depend on the burst level - where data is sent from the disc to the drive interface-being the point at which the speed-up shenanigans are being applied.
That's the good news. There's no real bad news except that Buffalo's software works only with Buffalo devices. So if you have a lineup of external USB drives that aren't sending out a Buffalo ID, nothing is going to happen - even if you enable the boost software, disconnect the DriveStation and plug in someone else's external hard disk really quickly.
You can't buffalo the Buffalo software. Once enabled, you also can't disable it unless the DriveStation is online and that's a bit unnerving. But, as it won't do anything when it doesn't find the correct drive ID present, you're just wasting a little memory.
Beyond that, the DriveStation TurboUSB is pretty much a regular Joe when it comes to external USB drives: black case with aluminum side panels acting as heatsinks and convection cooling vents in the top and bottom of the case for airflow. According to Buffalo, there is an optional fan available should you think it's necessary.
Included with the drive is Memeo Autobackup software that not only offers a backup regimen that wanders down to the file level if you so choose, but will also help you to manage the files you have. It's actually simple to use and seems to work effectively. Lastly, there's SecureLockWare if you want to encrypt your backup files and keep them safe from prying eyes - something often overlooked on a hard drive that can be picked up and carried away.

- power supply: external, AC100-240V 50/60Hz
Available in 320GB, 500GB, 750GB and 1TB versions (where a fan is reportedly included), the DriveStation will set you back anywhere from about £79 to around £250 RRP. The 500GB model will tap you for around £79 online, and that's certainly competitive. If you look at component pricing, you'll probably find that you can buy a drive, an external enclosure, and a screwdriver for slightly less and build your own. But you won't get Memeo, SecureLockWare and a faster-than-the-average USB drive if you take that route. The DriveStation TurboUSB package is worth the extra few bucks.

FRAMINGHAM - A traffic pilot will soon direct drivers on Rte. 9 to use Shoppers World Drive instead of Speen Street to get to the Mass. Pike.
The state Department of Transportation is set to test out the new pattern between early September and mid-November as a way to improve the level of service at the intersection of Speen Street and Rte. 30.
MassDOT plans to use sensors and message board signs to encourage drivers on Rte. 9 West to take Shoppers World Drive, a road privately owned by DDR Corp., according to Framingham Town Manager Robert Halpin.
The test comes as Framingham and Natick work with the Boston Region Metropolitan Planning Organization to come up with long-term fixes to improve the Rte. 30 corridor.

Zealand 's
dryland environments contain
some of
the most transformed, least protected and most threatened native
ecosystems and
species in
New Zealand.
One of the special features of Central Otago
drylands is the high diversity of native lizards. However, a number of
have disappeared and many others are struggling to survive in remnant
The Otago skink and grand skink are among the most
critically threatened
in New Zealand.
They used to be abundant across their former range but are now
restricted to 8%
of that area in two disjunct, relict populations. Otago skinks were
recorded in
the Alexandra basin in the 1970s but have now disappeared. Otago and grand skinks are at
risk of
extinction in the wild primarily due to introduced
Research by the Department of Conservation shows that eradication or
control of introduced predatory mammals can reverse their decline.
The Central Otago Ecological Trust
(COET) is a group of Alexandra residents with interests in
wildlife conservation and community participation. Our vision is to see
inspired and enthusiastic community that is actively involved in
recreating a
diverse population of lizard species that once flourished in the dry
basins of Otago. Therefore, in March 2005 we formed a charitable trust
consisting of seven trustees and four advisors. We are
formal partners with DOC's Grand and Otago Skink Recovery Programme.
What to do when you're in Central Otago? This question is not difficult to answer.
With a place like Central Otago, you'll never run out of places to visit. With various tourist destinations in its wake, your journey here will be fun and unforgettable for sure. Let's take a look at what you can do while you're here.
• Orchards and Wineries - For all wine connoisseurs out there, this place is heaven for you. Central Otago, particularly in Cromwell, is where you'll see one of the world's finest wines.This is definitely a must-see place for it's not every day that you get to taste one of the world's best wines.
• Otago Central Rail Trail - Take your bikes and travel the place in the best way possible. Take a ride in Otago Central Rail Trail and enjoy the jaw-dropping sceneries your eyes are about to see.
This is just the tip of the iceberg. There is so much more to this place.Come here even if you have to use amazon promo code to make that possible.
New Zealand is not just the place where "The Lord of the Rings" was taken, but, it is more than it and it is undoubtedly one of the best places here on earth! Visiting New Zealand will make you awe because of its breathtaking sceneries that you have never seen before. You can discover many beaches, offshore islands, and subtropical forests in the north and lakes, glaciers, large flat plains, and snow-covered mountains in the south. Nothing is more exciting than uncovering each beauty at an affordable cost. You can visit all of it at the least possible price when you avail of a discount coupon. Meet and greet the locals- "Kiwis"- and experience a very warm welcome. Get ready for outdoor adventures such as surfing, skiing, tramping, sailing, snowboarding, kayaking, swimming at the beach, caving parachuting, horse riding, and many more. All of which could be done within a one hundred mile radius. Yes, that is serious!
Since life began on Earth, we have learned that animals appeared and eventually disappeared continually. Though this is a natural phenomenon, we should not allow it to happen at a much faster rate. Thanks to human beings! The commercial overexploitation, poaching, pollution, and deforestation are just a few reasons why species are vanishing. Of course, we know that we are created greater and better than animals, but it is essential to protect them. In the first place, if we cannot save them, how will we be capable of saving ourselves?
Scientists and philosophers believe that if we will allow ourselves to understand animals better, we could be able to understand ourselves. The discretion to give protection to animal species depicts our value to the society. And if we prioritize the development of our resources, we should consider not just socially or economically, but also environmentally. In this way, we could use our natural resources wisely, which could benefit not just the present, but also the future. If you wish to help save these animals, you can buy your wants and needs at reputable online shopping sites.

Flute Studio
Valdosta State University offers its flute students a wide variety of performing opportunities for performance. Ensembles include the Valdosta Symphony Orchestra, Wind Ensemble, Concert Band, Flute Quartet, Flute Choir, various smaller chamber music groups including woodwind quintet, and the Blazin' Brigade Marching Band.
One of the outstanding features of the Music Department at Valdosta State University is the number of contact hours students receive from their individual applied music instructor. All Music Education and Bachelor of Arts majors at VSU receive a weekly one- hour lesson. Music Performance majors receive two one-hour lessons, double the amount of lesson time in most college programs. Additionally, all music majors attend a weekly one-hour master class with their instructor. Non-music majors at VSU can also register for applied flute lessons and audition for all ensembles.
Individual auditions may be scheduled at almost any time in the semester, although you are urged to audition as early as possible to ensure availability of scholarships. We are happy to schedule a day of activities for potential flute majors (and their parents) on their audition days, which can include a campus tour and observation of music classes.

Kerry Washington dished about her love scenes with Anthony Mackie in the pair's upcoming independent film "Night Catches Us," directed by first-time feature-maker Tanya Hamilton, set to premiere at the Sundance Film Festival on January 23.
"I will tell you this," Kerry told E!, "doing our second love scene was no easier than doing the first one," referring to her first love scene with Mackie in Spike Lee's "She Hate Me". "It was even more awkward the second time around."
Set in the summer of 1976, "Night Catches Us" follows a Black Panther prodigal son named Marcus (Mackie) on his return to his working-class neighborhood in Philadelphia where his former fellow Panthers are less than eager to welcome him home. The only person he connects with is his best friend's widow, Patricia (Washington)--cue the steamy love scenes.

Still have bit of a cold, but lots better. Just a bit vtired to mess with photos tonite.
Lots of wild life today, mainly birds. Around Aberdeen they have pheasant everywhere. Beautiful birds with scarlet head. I assume that is the male.
It was hard to miss them in the low bush as well as running across the road.
I was cruising along when I came upon a few ducks right by the road. Just when I was on them one panicked and flew right into my car. It happened so quick, it still pisses me off.

Hard start devices extend the life of compressors considerably by bringing them up to full speed much more quickly and efficiently. They also assist compressors in starting under very adverse ambient conditions such as low voltage or high head pressures.
Before 1989, the only starting devices that were approved and recommended by compressor and equipment manufacturers consisted of a potential relay (as dictated by the compressor make and model) connected by multiple wires to a start capacitor (also dictated by the compressor make and model). With 365 different relay/capacitor combinations possible (73 potential relays x 5 start capacitors), HVACR contractors who wanted to be ready for any trouble-shooting situation were forced to carry multiple types of relays and multiple types of start capacitors in their service vehicles, which then had to be wired together with three wires by the contractor himself – a cumbersome, time consuming, and costly necessity.
Then, in 1989, Kickstart® hard start devices arrived in the marketplace. At first glance, Kickstart® hard start devices appear to be no different than the multitude of two-wire start-assists that have been on the market since the early 80's. But a closer look reveals a high-quality potential relay combined with a high-quality start capacitor. It is this "true" potential relay that distinguishes the Kickstart® brand of hard start devices from other starting devices that still use timers, PTCR devices, or circuit boards. It is the unique patented design that allows a single potential relay to replace the multiple potential relay inventories without sacrificing quality.

Summer is here and the temperatures are soaring. A properly functioning air conditioning unit is vital especially in the South. Electric bill are also topping the charts. When was the last time you had your air conditioning coils cleaned? Dirt and debris can block the effectiveness of the a/c unit. Routine cleaning can improve the function of the cooling system. Annual cleaning is recommended. Outside on the condenser coil unit the fan sucks air through the fins and pulls dirt and debris which collects over time and blocks airflow. Dirty coils cause equipment to run longer giving it more wear and tear and use more energy causing larger electric bills. Coil cleaners come in a range of choices acid, alkaline and neutral.
This refers the pH of the product. A low pH is highly acid and corrosive and a high pH or highly alkaline is caustic. Acid and Alkaline cleaners are used because of the extreme soil in A/C units. Alkaline is used for grease and oil-based soil and acid is used for smoke and environmental soil, though most professionals pick their coil cleaners by color. Always read all cautions, directions and warnings on labels. The uses of coil cleaners are best left to professionals who have the proper equipment. The standard procedure is to shut off cooling system and fans. Read directions of coil cleaners some will need to be diluted. Spray with low pressure sprayer onto all area to be cleaned. Wear proper safety equipment. Avoid back spray from wind. Allow 5 minutes for full cleaning action. To avoid fumes from entering building rinse coils and surrounding area at least twice with low pressure water. This cleans the condenser unit don't forget about the evaporator unit.

Temperatures have been soaring this summer, which means air conditioning systems are working overtime trying to keep things cool and dry inside your home.
One common reason an air conditioning service technician is called to a job is because of condensate drain lines clogging. A/C drain lines clog due to thick mucus-like algae that grows inside the condensate drainage lines.

The Brigadier
Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart, often simply known as the Brigadier, had the distinction of being one of the Doctor's closest friends
The two first met when robot yetis invaded London! At that point, Colonel Lethbridge-Stewart was serving in the army, but when their paths crossed again he'd been promoted to the rank of Brigadier and was one of the men in charge of UNIT.
Five rounds rapid!The Brigadier
The Third Doctor worked closely with the Brigadier when he became UNIT's scientific advisor and during his time exiled to Earth, they fought Daleks, Daemons, the Master and a succession of monsters. Lethbridge-Stewart may have disagreed with the Doctor's approach but he remained a loyal ally and the one fixed point in a changing age.
The Brigadier finally married Doris and tried to settle down, although he had a habit of winding up in adventures with the Doctor and old friends like Sarah Jane...

Impala is a piece of Cloudera software which implements an ODBC driver on a desktop, which then connects directly to a Hadoop cluster. In our implementation, our Hadoop cluster sits behind a DMZ, in which we are meant to proxy connections with authentication.
Is there a Proxy solution which would enable this?
The TCP protocol isn't HTTP so I cannot do a basic auth challenge as implemented by most proxies and Apache as a reverse proxy etc.
I've looked at HAProxy, and it appears I might be able to come up with a "config". I would configure it with two listeners, one for HTTP and one for TCP. The HTTP proxy could "push" a connection into a stickiness table based on IP, and could authenticate the user. I'd need a HTTP service on each cluster server (which is there as part of Hadoop anyway). The TCP proxy would be configured with a "dummy" 1st server with a weight of 100, and then the cluster nodes with a weight of zero each. Thus, I hope, users will be directed to the dummy server if they just try to connect, but would get directed to a real server with load balancing if they first hit the HTTP proxy and authenticate themselves.
{Diagram would go here if I had enough reputation}
The drama with this, apart from the fact I don't know if it will work or not, is that the login/password is hard coded (albeit with an encrypted password) into the HAProxy config script. Worst still, the HAProxy has to be bounced for a password change to come into effect. I have over 1,000 users who have forced password resets every few weeks, so I can expect a password reset request probably daily from the forgetful.
So, any ideas? I know of many HTTP proxies with LDAP integration (Apache, Squid etc) but naturally they are all HTTP only. So far the only software proxy I have seen with any Authentication is HAProxy, but it isn't good enough for us.
Given Apache is Open Source, and HAProxy is open source, and both run on Linux, how hard would it be to get a HAProxy wrapper for the mod_ldap library? I mean, enter link description here

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Sep 01st, 1996
Running Time: 85
Director: Joe D'Amato
Company: Xcel Films
Cast: Chantale, Javos Studi, Deborah Wells, Kelly Trump, Nicolette Orsini, Cheyenne (I), Backey Jackic, Valentino (I), Sean Michaels, Magnum (I)
Critical Rating: Not Yet Rated
Genre: Film
Mozart (Backey Jackic) creates harmonies that cause hot flashes. He's never less than a randy rondeau away from driving women insane! He'll bang anything in a velvet skirt, from Queen Kelly Trump ("Play more, maestro - I wet myself with pleasure!") to her chambermaid, Deborah Wells. The blissed-out ladies gladly suck his cock in 4/4 time and dance the anal minuet.
If you thought F. Murray Abraham was a card, wait 'til you see the histrionics of this Mozart's Salieri, essayed by Valentino. His Vienna sausage works overtime in order to one-up the boy genius. Valentino's a sturdy guy who performs a standing fuck with ease.
D'Amato's got the costumes 'n' castle thing down pat; perhaps a little too pat. Breathtaking as all that lace and mortar may be, it's just trimmings. The sexual performances, while certainly explicit and nasty (plenty of d.p.'s and loads to the lips) rarely reek of unbridled passion.

Assembly Democrats have chosen Assemblywoman Toni Atkins of San Diego as the next speaker, making it likely that the incoming leaders of both legislative chambers will come from the same half of California for the first time in nearly two decades.
Assembly Speaker John Perez, a Los Angeles Democrat, announced Wednesday that Atkins was selected by the 55-member Democratic caucus.
A vote by the full, 80-member Assembly will take place in early spring. Perez says the Assembly will then set a transition date. He previously said he planned to serve as speaker until after the budget is approved in June.
In the Senate, Democrat Kevin de Leon of Los Angeles is in line to succeed Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg of Sacramento.

Ying Yang Twins, "United State of Atlanta" (TVT)
If nothing else, the Ying Yang Twins latest album "United State of Atlanta" serves as a welcome antidote to the sugary sellout sounds of the Black Eyed Peas and the like. Crunk style pros D-Roc and Kaine keep it gritty with lurid tales about women struggling to quit the strip club and fellows waiting in the wings to scoop them up for a raucous night on the town.
That's not to say this release is without a heart. In between the shoot-em-up plot lines, there's a hardened heart still beating here.
"Long Time" has a nice gospel-infused theme. It's about repenting for living a life too close to the edge.
But then it's quickly back into a party mode for Atlanta's hot rap duo. Slick production from the ColliPark Music crew makes tracks like "The Walk" glisten. You can't deny an uptempo dance rap song with a classic passage imploring the listener to move to the right-left-front-back and finally, "Take some baby steps/ Now take some baby steps!" That's worth the price of a bloated club admission right there.
Setting aside a few oversexed tracks and their hackneyed skit interludes, this is solid listening that lives up to every bit of its parental advisory sticker.
There's also a cool song called "23 Hr. Lock Down" that serves as a cautionary tale about breaking the law and paying the price. Ying Yang offers a glimpse of life behind prison bars that comes off like a rap version of the documentary "Scared Straight."
You'll come away vowing to keep your nose clean -- because the Ying Yang Twins say so.
-- Ron Harris
Bering Strait, "Pages" (Universal South)
It would be a challenge to find an album that explores as many musical styles as Bering Strait visits in 11 tracks on "Pages."
The six young Russians, who made the unlikely transition from classical training to bluegrass and country in Nashville, touch on all three genres, and then some.
click photo to enlarge
Their second album on Universal South opens with a haunting chant "Safe in My Lover's Arms" written and anchored by sometimes-backup vocalist and keyboard player Lydia Salnikova, who also fronts the more country-toned tracks.
Lead vocalist Natasha Borzilova takes over on the folk song "Oy, Moroz-Moroz" with its delightful Russian harmonies. That's followed with the dobro-intensive instrumental "From Ankara to Izmir" written, produced and performed, not surprisingly, by Union Station's dobro wizard Jerry Douglas. The other 10 tracks on the album are produced by two-time Grammy award winner Carl Jackson.
Four songs into the album, Salnikova and the band explore some blues with "Long Time Comin'." On the fifth track, they finally get into traditional country with a weepy steel and fiddle on "Just Imagine." The title track, "Pages," is Borzilova's; she gets folksy with bluegrass overtones.
The album wraps up with a couple of nice ballads, a rocker and a finale that flirts with disco.
If you haven't heard them yet, these young Russians are most definitely worth a listen.
-- Tom Gardner
The String Cheese Incident, "One Step Closer" (SCI Fidelity)
The String Cheese Incident's "One Step Closer" is a giant leap forward.
Recorded in a private studio at a friend's home in the mountains of Colorado, the album features the band unwaveringly in sync.
Not with the String Cheese boys. The jam band of aging hippies has reached deep into bluegrass-infused rock and pulled out a formula for songs that rely on memorable hooks and abbreviated improvisation to carry them.
The process of making the album must have been important to the band, too. The first 50,000 copies of the album include a 30-minute DVD called "The Big Compromise" that details making of the album in a never-before-seen look at the band's inner workings.
But even if you don't care about that, "One Step Closer" is the kind of album that you can put on, sit back, and let it do the work for you. It's refreshingly comfortable that way.

Skip to comments.(NAACP) Rally eyed for New Haven Ted Nugent show over Trayvon Martin case remarks
Posted on 07/18/2013 10:54:05 AM PDT by kevcol
A Weston man offended that Ted Nugent is scheduled to make an appearance Aug. 6 at Toads Place, says he has contacted the NAACP and will rally to get the show cancelled because of remarks Nugent made regarding the Trayvon Martin case.
(Excerpt) Read more at nhregister.com ...
Here's a thread with Ted's spot-on remarks.
Is THAT it ?
So much for an "honest discussion."
Hey Weston guy,get a life,what's the matter,can't handle the truth?
In all seriousness, that situation could be a powder keg if the NAACP guys want it to be. A bunch of drunk rockers probably would be easy prey get agitated.
I say it's time for a road trip....
Wow that is going to be a kick ass concert!
Ouch! What just hit me upside the head? Oh, just some truuf! Not that we care about the truuf.
Well, this should be entertaining.
Man! Is Toad's Place still open? Some buddies and I drove over to there from Subbase New London in, let's see, must have been 1976 to see Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee. In those days I was more into the Blues than Ted Nugent style rock. Funny how things change.
Times have changed since the days of the Beatles.
How about a benefit concert to pay for Z's legal bills?
That oughta toast their buns
Hey, Finegan, project much? Instead of showing the world how "cool" and "down for the struggle" you are, why not look in the mirror and deal with your own racist attitudes?
Entertaining? Potentially.
I wonder if the Nuge is going to have his M-60 up on stage with him with a few yards of linked belts draped over his shoulders?
Disrupting that show might indeed be an interesting proposition.
It seems that push may very well come to shove somewhere before they move on to the next political obsession.
Have a funny feeling that that is exactly what they want.
Keep that racism pot boiling.
I've come to the conclusion that all liberals are either stupid or evil. The evil ones have a seriously damaging agenda that they pursue in order to promote their own power (and flawed vision of the way things should be ran). The stupid ones blindly follow these snake oil salesmen.
Why cant liberals (the stupid ones) see the agenda that the evil ones have. Why cant they see that the evil ones are using climate change, race relations, etc. to further their own evil agenda?
It's noteworthy that Connecticut is a "less safe state" because it has more gun and knife control laws, and does not have gun license reciprocity with any other state.
At least he can still wear body armor.
Judging from the picture he's a pansy assed, elitist.
You're being much too kind, Albie.
black people are so scared by the zimmerman thing that they're all worried some white guy is going to shoot them...
...that's why they're getting in the face of every white person who doesn't agree with them and screaming
right (cue eye roll)
LOL...in more ways then one....
It's fast getting to the point when the real men stand up to the crap we are being forced to accept.
They're not trying to shut down discussion about this, are they? We have 'free speech' in this country, don't we?
< / s >
the goal of "demonstrating" there is to scare white people away by threatening them with violence.
the days of wanting equality are long gone, this is a quest for black supremacy.
More Black KKK Racism
Of course....Nuge has no problem with self defense. "Capped Like Trayvon" gonna be some Black Racists future
I don't think that Ted Nugent needs help from anyone here. Man is fearless.
People at a TedNugget concern are not the type people that theses NAACP racists want to get riled up.
Yup, Toads is still The Place. A few years ago the Stones played there, unknown to most. Mick's daughter was a Yalie at the time.
Where there were REAL fainting girls ...

ALL around!
"Anyone that wants to shut this down can turn around and get the f**k outta here, alright. Do you hear me!"
here is the incident
Our citizens who started using marijuana and other drugs at an early age have arrested intellectual development. You will find that most of these people are liberals.
Do you mean that black people are going to cross the street when they see me? Something good out of all this.
Don't know much else about the state of the place toady.
"It seems that push may very well come to shove somewhere before they move on to the next political obsession.
Have a funny feeling that that is exactly what they want."
I agree. There very likely will be blood before this is finished. It's like some type of societal insanity.

one of my favourite fragrances
This is a very fresh scent and delivery is always very quick
I prefer this to some of the stronger scents (which I use to sometimes clear cooking smells) - this is just nice and refreshing to use at any time.
I've had this particular fragrance before so I selected it again. It evokes the essence of wandering through a lemon grove but you don't need to leave the lamp running for more than 30 minutes per room as it doesn't require any more than that to transform your house
Thank you for my order I shall enjoy using them but I would like some lavender but always seems to be out of stock
All the lamp fragrances I have bought over the last few years have been top quality. Very prompt delivery service. Keep up the excellent service you provide.
once again first class service and product /delivery information and delivery time first class

Product Type: Lamp Fragrance
Fragrance Type: Fruity & Exotic
Fragrance Name: Citrus Zest
Burning Time: approximately 20 hours of use with a large lamp (20-25% longer with a small lamp)
Guidance: Fragrance Lamps are an incredibly powerful way to fragrance your home, and consequently do not need to be used for extended periods of time. For the optimum balance of room fragrancing with fragrance usage, we recommend to burn your lamp for around 20-25 minutes per time (an average sized room is about 20sqm, so this equates to about 1 minute per m3). You will find that the fragrance in fact lingers in the air for several hours afterwards. Burning the lamp continuously for long periods of time will use your fragrance much faster.

Mid-Fi takes a extensive look at the recent change in the perception of how a computer can be used in a graphic-design/ illustration process. Our generation of designers, artists and illustrators have all grown up surrounded by computers, and their unlimited options and tricks. Now there seems to be a consensus for using the computer as a tool, instead of as the main instrument for creating graphics and art. Mid-Fi is an exploration of this hybrid crafts-based approach, mixed with modern technology, and the new forms of expression that brings. The selected work in this book, is not necessarily resisting the seduction of new technology, but rather mixing the best of 2 worlds; Low-Fi and Hi-Fi.

During the war accidents in the home outstripped highway accidents, which in turn had outstripped industrial and home accidents in the days before the war. Now that gasoline rationing has been discontinued and motorists are free to drive when and where they wish, the accident toll on the highway has been increasing until it threatens to surpass the big highway accident year 1941. At the present rate highway casualties in 1946 may reach 40,000 deaths and more than 1,300.000 injuries, many of them involving permanent disability.
President Truman called a highway safety conference, which met in Washington May 8, 9 and 10. During the course of the conference working committees held open hearings. With the modifications growing out of these hearings, the reports were presented to the general conference and became the conference report, which is consolidated into a pamphlet entitled Action Program, the President's Highway Safety Conference, 1946.1

The Dyer County Fire Department is asking the budget committee not to remove the $50,000 appropriated to them as a one-time expense during the 2012-2013 budget hearings. Dyer County Fire Chief James Medling asked the committee during its meeting on Thursday morning if it would allow the fire department to retain those funds in its budget so it can address the deteriorating condition of the department's brush trucks and eventually their pumper trucks.
Medling had previously presented his concerns to the fire committee during meetings held this past November and December and was encouraged by Commissioner David Agee, who serves as chairman of the fire committee, to present his request to the budget committee for their consideration as they put together the 2013-2014 budget.
"We're not asking for an increase in the budget over this current year, we're just asking to keep that 50," said Medling.
Medling reported that the average age of the frontline pumpers are 18 years old with the oldest being 23 years old. The brush trucks, which are used to respond to approximately 80 percent of the calls, have an average age of 27 years. Medling told the committee that the brush trucks are used to handle wild land fires, brush fires, car fires, grass fires and can be used as a first-responder medical-call vehicle. Medling says he would like to purchase one-ton trucks with a slide-in unit that will allow the department to use them as brush trucks. Ten trucks will cost approximately $550,000.
"When we bought these fleet of trucks 20 years ago we received a grant that purchased three of them and the county purchased the other four to get everyone a new truck," said Medling. "We borrowed the money then and paid it off at $50,000 a year and we would like to do the same this time around."
Commissioner Jim Horner mentioned that an individual up north, who dedicated himself to rebuilding fire trucks, contacted Mayor Richard Hill and asked that his contact information be passed along to Medling. Medling responded that he received the information that morning and would be contacting the individual, but in most cases by the time that brush trucks need to be rebuilt they are in bad shape.
"Used pumpers are definitely something that you can look into and rebuild," said Medling. "Used brush trucks are ... they are pretty well shot when someone gets rid of a brush truck."
"All these angles need to be looked into," said Hill.
The fire department wasn't the only department making requests, as Sherriff Jeff Box was present at Thursday's budget meeting as well to make a request on behalf of the constables. Box explained that the constables need new radios in order to comply with a Federal Communications Commission mandate that began Jan. 1, 2013, which required all public safety and business industrial land mobile-radio systems to begin operating using at least 12.5 kHz efficiency technology.
Box said that the E911 board assisted in upgrading his department's radios to comply with the mandate (Medling stated that his department was assisted with that upgrade as well) but that there is some question from the 911 board whether it is a legitimate expense for the constables, who may or may not be considered first responders. Box provided the committee with a quote from West Tennessee Communications for 10 radios that would cost approximately $8,000.
According to Box, constables are invaluable as they not only serve summons but also assist deputies when possible.
"They help with DUI enforcement and traffic safety," said Box. "It's a good deterrent to have them visible in the community."
Hill acknowledged that the committee needed to do what it could to help with the issue, as the constables free deputies from having to serve papers and in the event of an emergency that the county needs them they are standing by.
Constable James Samson was present at the meeting and he commented that the constables do not ask the county for any financial assistance for their training. Samson pointed to the bulletproof vest he wears, which he purchased himself, and he also commented that constables are required by the state to go through 40 hours of in-service training each year, which is paid for by the constables.
"Everything we have is bought by us," said Samson. "We have never asked y'all for anything."
Commissioner William Mallard asked Box "how long have we known about this requirement?".
"Ten years," said Box.
Commissioner Benny Spain, who chairs the budget committee and formerly served on the 911 board, said he was unsure why the 911 board would reject purchasing radios for constables. Medling, who serves as vice chairman of the 911 board, clarified the issue stating that the issue is going to be revisited by the 911 board at its January meeting as it has been discussed in committee since the board's last meeting in November. Spain asked if Box would hold off on the expenditure request until the 911 board meeting on Tuesday, Jan. 29, at which time Spain said he would be present to discuss the matter with the board.
