- Arrive on time to your appointment to ensure maximum time for the application

Before and After Photos
Please remember that you are unique and your results will vary and depend on the condition and length of your own lashes, the size of your eyes and the look you choose. We encourage you to schedule a complimentary consultation prior to discuss what will work best for you.
Take a look here for before and after photos – http://jblashes.com/professional/gallery.php
The What and The Why on Lash Extensions…
A single lash extension is applied one by one to individual eyelashes. This process involves carefully separating the natural lashes with fine point tweezers to reveal one healthy eyelash. The lash extension is then dipped into a medical grade adhesive and attached to the natural eyelash. The process is repeated until all eyelashes are covered.
Lash Extensions add length, thickness and fullness to natural eyelashes. Longer lashes will make your eyes more open and will give them an enlarged look. Often without the hassle of mascara! Touch-ups are recommended every 2-4 weeks.
Our Touch-up/Fill prices are based on visits every 2-4 weeks for C. Joy Salon clients with proper home care. Additional charges may apply if longer than 2-4 weeks between visits or excessive loss due to improper home care. If you had your initial full set application done somewhere other than C.Joy Salon, we recommend a consultation prior to your service to evaluate the condition of your Lash Extensions. This is due to the inconsistency in the quality of work in the industry. If your extensions have been applied properly we are happy to fill them in for you. If a complete removal is needed due to poor quality, we will work with you to get you a new set that you absolutely love!
Cancellation Policy. Guarantee.
Appointments may be canceled 24 hrs prior to your appointment without charge. Same day cancellations will be charged $25.
We guarantee the quality of our work. If you are not satisfied for any reason we will work with you to ensure that you love your eyelashes.

Sheriff's Office » Press Releases
Location: Carlotta
Early yesterday morning, Humboldt County Sheriff's Deputies responded to a residence on the 19000 block of Highway 36 in Carlotta after receiving reports of shots being fired. One caller reported hearing approximately 20 shots fired. When the two responding deputies arrived, they heard approximately 9 shots being fired in rapid succession. They called for additional deputies and while waiting, they heard gunfire another five times. With additional personnel on scene, deputies and CHP Officers stopped traffic on Hwy 36. At about 1:15 a.m., several deputies approached the house and found two adults, a male and a female, standing in the driveway; both were detained without incident. In the yard and along a fence bordering a neighbor's yard, deputies found numerous shotgun shell casings and casings from a handgun. They located additional casings about ten yards from the highway. Along with shell casings, deputies found identification belonging to Daniel Bertrand Proud, 45. Proud, who lives at the residence, was the male who was already detained. Deputies found a loaded handgun and a shotgun in the truck, next to where Proud and the female had been standing. To ensure nobody was injured inside the residence, deputies contacted those still inside. They found four juveniles and an adult. Deputies arrested Proud for negligently discharging a firearm (a felony) and public intoxication. He was booked into the Humboldt County Correctional Facility where his bail was set at $25,000. The female was released at the scene.

Erbil Citadel
High Commission for Erbil Citadel Revitalization & State Board for Antiquities and Heritage
Kurdistan Region
ExportWord File

Property names are listed in the language in which they have been submitted by the State Party
Erbil Citadel Town, which is situated dramatically on top of an artificial, 32-meters high earthen mound, and visually dominating the expansive modern city of Erbil, is believed to have been in continuous existence for 7000 years or even more. Thus, it may be regarded as the oldest continuously inhabited settlement in the world. Because of its past fortifications and steeply inclined mound, which is at some locations nearly 45 degrees, it has managed to survive numerous sieges and fierce attacks. The existing fabric, however, goes back to several hundred years but is, nevertheless, of extreme vernacular architectural and urban interest, not only for Iraq but also for humanity at large.
Basically, the Citadel is an elliptical shaped town covering slightly more than 10 hectares of dense fabric composed mainly of traditional courtyard houses and built in ochre-colored bricks. In addition, there are several important public buildings such as 3 mosques, a public bath (Hammam), 7 historic graves, two gates, and several open urban spaces. The residential quarters are reached by a labyrinthine network of narrow pedestrian alleyways which spread out in a tree-like pattern from the main Southern Gate.
Today, there are about 330 houses from a total of about 500 that possess important cultural and architectural interest. Some houses, public buildings, and urban spaces, have authentic cultural values and show remarkable ingenuity and resourcefulness in local architectural traditions.
To walk through its meandering pedestrian alleyways and experience the exhilarating visual and spatial qualities of its traditional architecture, the Citadel is truly a remarkable human achievement. It deserves the full support of all humanity to preserve its unique character for the enjoyment of all, and to ensure its survival for future generations.
Statements of authenticity and/or integrity
By and large, the Citadel Town of Erbil has maintained its overall urban form and architectural character over the past several millennia. Although, like most other historic towns, there have been some rebuilding and new additions over the years it has, nevertheless, kept its essential physical elements such as its perimeter wall, urban pattern and overall aesthetic and architectural qualities. The Citadel is today one of the most dramatic and visually exciting cultural sites not only in the Middle East but also in the world.
In order to preserve and enhance this unique historic town the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) established the High Commission for Erbil Citadel Revitalization (HCECR) in 2007. An official agreement with Unesco was signed in September 2007 to advise the Commission on this project and to prepare a "Conservation Master Plan" for the Citadel. It is hoped that soon the Citadel will undergo systematic and careful measures and actions for its restoration, rehabilitation, and revitalization.
Comparison with other similar properties
Although there are many fortified and military citadels in the world today, there are only a few surviving citadel towns anywhere. Erbil Citadel is unmatched in the region not only because of its nearly 7000 years history but also because it is a town inhabited by people and not a military structure like the citadels of Cairo, Aleppo, Damascus, Amman, etc. The only comparable town citadel in Iraq and elsewhere in the region was perhaps the citadel of Kirkuk (North of Iraq) that was, unfortunately, almost totally demolished in the late 1990s by the central government.
Thus, Erbil Citadel represents a unique example of a town that has nested on top of a hill for several millennia and has, since then, not only accumulated numerous and important archaeological layers within but also possesses a very important traditional architectural and urban heritage . As such, it deserves to be included on the Tentative List of World Heritage Sites and hopefully, later on, on the World Heritage Sites List.

Even better, though: The philanthropic fever is spreading.
This week, Liberty Middle School in east Orange County will kick off a similar effort. On Thursday night, parents and neighbors will join local businesses and nonprofits to see how they, too, can work together to best help students — and make the school the heart of the community. Local representatives from Florida Hospital, AllState and others have already signed on.
Organizer Scott Kidd said he read about Fern Creek and simply decided: "I could do that, too. I should do that."
This, my friends, is what it's all about.
You see, politicians in this state have made their stance on education very clear: Public schools are a second-class priority. Teachers are often treated as the enemy.
Despite pretty talk on the campaign trail, per-pupil funding levels are lower than they were years ago. And there's a continued and concerted effort to divert money away from traditional public schools and toward for-profit ones.
So, forget the politicians.
That's what Kidd, whose wife works at Liberty as a media specialist, decided after reading about Fern Creek where, after kids had their basic needs met, test scores soared with passing rates of 80 and 90 percent.
Kidd wanted the same success at Liberty. So he met with principal Rolando Bailey, who dreams of making his school what schools used to be — "a foundation and resource for the entire community."
Bailey has an uphill battle. Many of his students don't speak English. Even fewer of the parents do.
The school already offers after-hours classes to students who are struggling. But Bailey knows to truly bring the parents in, he needs to offer evening classes for them as well.
Here's the rub: The state doesn't give Bailey the money to pay for the things he already does — much less the additional things he needs.
So he and Kidd are taking matters into their own hands, looking to local partners for help.
I wish them luck. Not just for their sake, but for other principals who also need help — principals such as Lynne Wassatt at Rock Lake Elementary, which continues to struggle.
It's easy for critics to cavalierly suggest that the teachers at Rock Lake should simply work harder and that parents there should be more involved. The reality is quite different.
Nearly 30 percent of the students at this west Orlando school are homeless. Most of the others are poor.

Marshall football: Herd has to wrap up against Bobcats
HUNTINGTON, W.Va. - Marshall defensive end Alex Bazzie said that, for the Thundering Herd to compete with Ohio in the "Battle for the Bell," they have to improve exponentially with missed tackles. Considering how many the Herd missed against the Bobcats last season, improving shouldn't be too tough.
"We missed 43 tackles against them last year," he said. "That's a lot."
Kickoff is 6:30 p.m. Saturday at Joan C. Edwards Stadium.
Especially since Marshall (1-1) missed just nine tackles last week against Western Carolina. With nine missed tackles, the Herd gave up 144 rushing yards against the Catamounts in a 52-24 win. With 43 missed tackles, Marshall allowed 271 rushing yards - and 559 total yards - in a 44-7 loss last season to the Bobcats.
Bazzie said Marshall coaches have reminded the defense of those numbers from 2011 throughout this week's practices. The Bobcats (2-0) haven't slowed down this year, averaging 234 rushing yards and 541.5 total yards, a number that's 14th best in the Football Bowl Subdivision.
"You've really got to stay disciplined," Bazzie said. "They're a disciplined team and when you play a disciplined team, you don't have room for any errors."
* * *
THE HERD spread around the wealth in the backfield once again last Saturday. Five running backs carried the ball - Steward Butler, Kevin Grooms, Travon Van, Remi Watson and Essray Taliaferro. It was the second consecutive game five running backs got carries and the second straight game that Butler, Grooms, Van and Watson received multiple carries.
Will there be a point where the Herd starts narrowing down the number of backs in each game? Coach Doc Holliday said he doesn't see that happening any time soon.
"I think all four of those guys can play and will play," he said. "I think the one thing we've done, where we've helped ourselves, we snapped it 105 times the first game and 90-some the second game. Whenever you can do that you can play a lot more people. Butler, Grooms, Remi and Travon have all shown they can play and deserve playing time."
* * *
WHILE PLENTY of focus has remained on Ohio quarterback Tyler Tettleton, his current Bobcats teammate and former teammate at Norman North High in Oklahoma, running back Beau Blankenship, is one of the nation's top rushers.
Blankenship, a 5-foot-9, 202-pound redshirt junior, is averaging 138.5 yards per game, the seventh-best average in the FBS. Ohio Coach Frank Solich is not afraid to give him the ball. He carried 31 times versus Penn State and 27 times versus New Mexico State. Solich said Blankenship's running style makes him tough to bring down.
"That style of back that has great toughness like he's got, he goes into contact extremely well and gets yards after contact," Solich said. "He'll, by his toughness, make what normally would be a short gain, a two- or three-yard gain into a five- or six-yard gain. And as the game goes on, if you're able to wear down an opponent, a runner with a style like his becomes even more effective in the second half and late in the ball game."

US: PepsiCo posts FY profits fall as 53rd week bites back
By Andy Morton | 14 February 2013
- FY like-for-like net profits down by 4% to US$6.18bn
- Net sales in 2012 slip by 1.5% to $65.5bn
- Operating profits fall by 5%, hitting US$9.11bn
- Global beverage volumes up by 1% organically for the year
PepsiCo released its FY numbers today
PepsiCo has posted a fall in full-year profits and sales as a 53rd week in 2011 results left a tough comparison.
Net profits were down by 4% to US$6.18bn in 2012, the New York-based company said today (14 February). Net sales slipped by 1.5% to $65.5bn over the same period while operating profits fell by 5% to $9.11bn.
PepsiCo said that, on an organic basis and discounting the effects of the extra week in 2011, net sales increased by 5%. The company did not give a value.
Fourth-quarter numbers showed more health. Net profits increased by 17% to $1.66bn in the three months to the end of December, but net sales decreased by 1% to $19.95bn. Operating profits slipped by 1.5% to $2.21bn. On an organic basis, sales increased by 5%.
"We're well positioned in attractive and highly complementary growth categories, our portfolio is diversified with products that have broad appeal and a global footprint that is balanced, and we have an enviable portfolio of iconic brands," PepsiCo chairman & CEO Indra Nooyi said.
In beverages, PepsiCo saw global volumes increase by 1%, however, its Americas beverage unit faced a difficult year, with net sales for 2012 down by 4.5% and operating profits falling by 8%. PepsiCo blamed the refranchising of PepsiCo Americas Beverages's Mexican bottling operation in 2011 and the extra week. On an organic basis, sales grew by 1.5%, PepsiCo said.
In the fourth quarter, non-carbonated beverages volumes grew low-single-digits led by mid-single-digit volume growth at Gatorade, while CSD volumes declined about 1%.
Looking forward, PepsiCo said it intends to increase marketing spend at or above the rate of net sales growth and announced plans for a share repurchase programme to buy back up to $10bn of PepsiCo common stock between 1 July and 30 June 2016.
PepsiCo's share price dipped yesterday ahead of today's results.

|My First two cents
|no comments
Just like what the title describe, all the post that will be here is about my take on anything and everything under the sun. But I won't start in this first post, rather I would explain why I'm doing it.
I noticed when I was writing my college paper that there is an abundance of topic to choose from if it is about anything or everything under the sun, from the increasing turmoils happening to the middle east, the tradegy that strucked japan, or the economic problems here on our own country, and that is not even half of what could talked about when the topic is anything goes. Just like my friend, who's favorite past time is writing college papers for other "less gifted" students, always says. You don't have to think about what your going to write, as long as the topic says "anything goes"
So on my next post, I'll start to give you my "two cents", that is if you want it.

Often times, pictures from our digital cameras are very large. This is because there are different image resolutions for printing photos vs. simply viewing photos on the web.
Image size for printing is determined by how many pixels-per-inch (ppi) make up a photo or image. The amount of pixels (or dots) can range from a lot (300 ppi) to a little (72 ppi). When you are printing a photograph from your camera, the rule of thumb is to use the highest ppi possible for the size you need. Most printers will recommend using 300 ppi as your setting.
The web works a little differently. To understand how image ppi affects images displayed on webpages, consider this formula: 1-1.
Rather, they are based on how many pixels the image has. The goal is to resize your photo to exactly what size you will be using it on the website. A general rule of thumb is that about 100 pixels = approximately 1 inch on a website. By sizing down your photos appropriately for what you are using them for, you will reduce the file size and make the page load faster.
We recommend the setting of 72 ppi for the web. Why? Because you have to put something in the box in most image editing programs, such as Adobe Photoshop. But when Photoshop asks for ppi in the Image Size dialog, this value is used to determine how Photoshop converts the pixel dimensions of the image into printed inches.
To learn more about resizing images for the web, here are some resources:

Uhhh...woulda, shoulda, coulda...mostly a litany of why the Falcons shoulda won if they didn't make key mistakes or had key injuries. Falcons first half was a combination of their staff seeing holes in Niner defensive schemes and perfect execution on the part of the Falcons. The second half was about Niner adjustments and their physical defense taking a toll on the Falcons. Niners won because they're better.
First Down/Fourth Down: 49ers' defense stands its ground in second half
For 30 minutes on Sunday, the San Francisco 49ers did not appear to have any answers for Atlanta's explosive passing game.
Matt Ryan sat in the pocket untouched, while Julio Jones and, to a lesser extent, Roddy White and Tony Gonzalez ran free downfield. The Falcons scored a touchdown on their first drive, added a field goal on their second drive and another TD on their third and then, following a punt, punched another one into the end zone just before halftime to take a 24-14 lead.
And then, the pendulum swung back the other direction, as San Francisco rallied for a 28-24 win.
The 49ers helped themselves, after falling into an early 17-0 hole, by establishing their ground game. That improvement allowed them to get their defense some rest and minimize Atlanta's possessions — each team had the ball just five times in the second half, and the Falcons' final "drive" consisted of a harmless last-second pass to Jones.
But the 49ers also managed to take away a (possibly hobbled) Jones after the break, too. Jones caught seven balls for 135 yards and two touchdowns in the first half, then struggled to find any space until late in the fourth quarter.
Atlanta also shot itself in the foot on two occasions in the third quarter: White slipped as Ryan fired a pass, leading to an interception; then Ryan mishandled a snap on Atlanta's next possession, with the 49ers recovering the fumble.
In the end, San Francisco needed its defense to make one last stop. It delivered, breaking up a pass intended for Roddy White on a 4th down deep in 49ers' territory with just over a minute left (more on that controversial play in a moment).
The 49ers still have their issues defensively, with the Super Bowl their next stop, but they stepped up Sunday.
[si_launchNFLPopup video='83b558d3f3ab4aaba5290886ea5bfaad']HIGHLIGHTS[/si_launchNFLPopup]
First Down: The threat of Colin Kaepernick running the football.
Last week, Kaepernick ran for an NFL QB-record 181 yards (plus two touchdowns) in San Francisco's dismantling of the Packers. On Sunday, he gained 160 fewer yards on the ground — but proved just as valuable to the 49ers' run game.
That's because the Falcons found themselves so concerned with the possibility of Kaepernick breaking off a big run, that they overcompensated for his presence. The result: 124 combined rushing yards for Frank Gore and LaMichael James, including three touchdowns.
All three of those scores came on similar plays, too — Gore or James coming from left to right on a read-option, and Kaepernick handing them the football. The Falcons clearly made it a focus to corral Kaepernick on those plays (and on San Francisco's passing attempts), leaving huge gaps up the middle for Gore and outside for James.
Kaepernick rushed the ball just twice: a 23-yard scramble and a 2-yard loss on a sweep wide.
Fourth Down: Stephen Nicholas.
There will be plenty of defenders to point fingers at when the Falcons roll back Sunday's game tape. Nicholas had a very tough day, though, and he was at the attack point for a number of San Francisco's big runs.
Nicholas also took a costly 15-yard penalty for throwing Garrett Celek to the turf at the end of a play, which helped set up a Kaepernick-to-Vernon Davis touchdown pass.
The Falcons' linebacker did recover Michael Crabtree's fumble at Atlanta's 1, but that was a rare highlight on a rough afternoon.
First Down: Julio Jones.
Jones, as most players are wont to do, tends to see his performance fall off dramatically when he's playing at less than 100 percent. There may not be a more logical explanation for what happened to Atlanta's receiver from the first half [si_launchNFLPopup video='c9160b17914d4faf8cbbc94913e628c6'](when he dominated)[/si_launchNFLPopup] to the second half (when he went quiet for a long stretch). Jones appeared to injure his hand early Sunday, then asked the Atlanta trainers to check out his knee before halftime.
Still, through the first two quarters, Jones played as well as a wide receiver can play. He absolutely torched the San Francisco secondary — Jones kicked off the scoring by blowing by two defenders for a 46-yard TD, then bumped Atlanta's lead to 17-0 with a ridiculous catch over Tarell Brown.
All in all, Jones finished with 182 yards receiving and caught all 11 balls thrown to him.
Fourth Down: Aldon Smith and Justin Smith.
Aldon Smith came up with a key fumble recovery, ending an Atlanta drive, and he also provided pressure of Ryan on a couple of plays. The 49ers' two dynamic pass rushers were kept mostly in check by the Falcons, however — something San Francisco will have to correct before Super Bowl Sunday.
Justin Smith is playing at less than 100 percent, a partially torn triceps limiting his effectiveness.
Aldon Smith's drop-off in production recently (he has no sacks in San Francisco's last five games) is tougher to figure. A theory, though: As an every-down player this season, Smith has played 400-plus more snaps than he did in 2011. He might just be wearing down in his second NFL year.
First Down: Ahmad Brooks and Carlos Rogers.
Brooks and Rogers led the 49ers' second-half defensive revival.
Brooks actually finished without a tackle, but he came up with two big pass break-ups in the second half, including one on 3rd-and-4 with less than two minutes remaining. Just prior to that, Brooks also planted Ryan into the turf, leaving Ryan clutching his non-throwing shoulder.
Rogers, meanwhile, helped stabilize the 49ers' secondary against the Falcons' passing game. His best moment came when he prevented a touchdown by swatting away a deep ball intended for White. Later, fittingly, he brought down Jones to end the game.
Fourth Down: Atlanta's big mistakes.
The 49ers had a pair of key misses themselves: David Akers clanged a 38-yard field goal off the upright, and Crabtree turned the ball over just inches shy of the end zone.
But Atlanta left the door open on a comeback with two key turnovers: Ryan's interception intended for White, and then Ryan's fumble. The Falcons then had the ball deep in San Francisco territory late, only for Ryan to fire back-to-back incompletions.
First Down: Tight ends.
Here's hoping Tony Gonzalez comes back for one more season, because he clearly has enough left in the tank. He and Vernon Davis battled back and forth Sunday in an enthralling matchup of elite tight ends.
Gonzalez wound up catching eight balls for 78 yards, while Davis one-upped him with 106 yards receiving and a touchdown. The Falcons had no luck covering Seattle TE Zach Miller last week, either, and Davis found a lot of the same holes, coming free on crossing patterns and off of play-action.
If Gonzalez does indeed hang 'em up, he may look back on the Falcons' final failed fourth-down attempt with frustration. After the Falcons headed over to the bench, Gonzalez appeared to mouth to White: "I'm open."
A Gonzalez TD grab to send Atlanta to the Super Bowl would have been a Hollywood ending. Given Gonzalez's long wait to pick up his first playoff win (a moment that came last week), this ending somehow seems even more appropriate.
Fourth Down: Officiating controversies.
What would an NFL week be without confusing moments from the officiating crew at critical junctures of the game? Both Atlanta and San Francisco fans have something to crow about, based on the game's final moments.
Had Atlanta pulled off its late comeback, 49ers fans likely would have jumped in line behind head coach Jim Harbaugh in crying foul on a Harry Douglas catch. On a third down in the fourth quarter, Douglas came open down the sideline, only to trip himself as he attempted to make a catch.
The Falcons' receiver still came down with it, according to the ruling on the field. Replays showed it was close — the ball moved when Douglas hit the turf, but not enough, apparently, to overturn the play.
Moments later, on that decisive fourth-down pass by Ryan, NaVorro Bowman came close to drawing a flag for holding or pass interference. But no call came, and the 49ers punched their ticket to New Orleans.
Falcons choked. There's something about Falcons that you know they will implode. They nearly did so against Seahawks and totally fell apart against 49ers in the 2nd half. Somehow you know Matt Ryan will make a bone-headed play and you know a collapse is just round the corner.
Looks like the best record curse did it again! Does anyone realize that the team with the best record in the NFL have not won the Super Bowl since 2002? I think having the best regular season record is like a curse. I would not want it.
Simple-Atlanta didn't make any halftime adjustments, San Francisco did. And this isn't last year's (or earlier this season's) 49ers. Last year the 49ers are TOAST down 17. If Atlanta hadn't noticed, we actually have a potent offense these days.
It seems when the Falcons hold a substantial lead, they relax and don't try to defend that lead. They showed it against Seattle and again with the Niners. The Falcons were lucky to win again Seattle, and with the Niners, it looked like they gave up in the second half. Now, it is time to see who is better...Jim or John...Go Niners!!
Atlanta lost so what is the problem?
The Falcons just can't hold a lead. They almost blew it last week. I feel bad for Ryan. A damn good quarterback but is still disrespected because of his playoff record.
As a Ravens fan I've seen the same stuff with Flacco. I assume that the football 'experts' will finally be convinced how good he is. He's in the Super Bowl. AND SF is already posted as the favorite. I think I'm glad about that. They've been the underdog every game so far in the post season.
To all the complaining Atlanta fans. There was crap on both sides. But the Falcons are developing a nasty habit of doing nothing in the second half. Geez, Ryan torched the Niners secondary in the first half. What happened to him? Here's a trick question? How many points did ATL score in the second half? Trick answer. Zero. How did that happen? How could Ryan lead his team to zero points in 30 minutes? It was the same defense, a bit soft in the secondary. Zero points!!!! Sorry, ATL did not want to win bad enough, so they didn't.
The umps want a Yankees - Dodgers, east coast - west coast World Series.
What? Too soon?
I really don't care, my team was out of the playoffs about 9 months ago. But I found that helmet tap penalty and the 4th down no-call to be fairly bad officiating. But as they say, score enough points so it doesn't matter.
what a farce, the gods to be in the NFL want a Harbaugh Super Bowl. It is disgusting how they can control the game.
What a farce, The NFL wants a Harbaugh super bowl
@JohnAlport1 All about halftime adjustments. SF made them, Atlanta did not.
@azathoth 4th and 4 Ryan throws to a guy who's not going to get a call like that. Also it's debatable but the guys route wasn't over 5 yds so contact is fine. If that was Gonzalez or any of the 3 guys who shouldve been thrown the ball instead, they prob get the call. The hands to the face was ticky-tak, but I've seen QB's across the board get that call more times than I can stand. The Harry Douglas catch on the other end pretty much made up for that imo.
did you complain last year when the freaking 9-7 outscored for the year giants clear fumble was ruled a non fumble in the nfc championship game? a turnover that would have slammed the door on the giants?
@smokinaces Best team won, even after they spotted you 17 points.....take your loss like a man...
@smokinaces So convinced of your paranoid theory that you had to post about it twice?
@smokinaces If that is the case, why didn't it happened last year????
@smokinaces Actually, the NFL wanted Niners - Patriots for a lot more advertising revenue. I'm tired of the Harbaugh story already and it hasn't really begun yet.
@redmch91 Fair points. Somehow I missed Douglas' catch (I'll have to catch the highlights.). Ah well, I'm glad NE lost, though.
@JoeCabot and ur point is?
u watch the game, the refs called a swat from a defensive guy a penalty but a rape on Ryan nothing? Then on forth down another rape by SF no call? Im a Giant fan in NJ but this was nothing but a control job by the networks. They want an east cost west coast game.
@JoeCabot @smokinaces First post was a test
@JohnAlport1 @smokinaces Yeah John, I'm a Ravens fan and even I have to agree with you. We'll hear from the parents, the wives, the in-laws, etc. Get used to it.
@azathoth @redmch91 Agree with you guys-it all comes out in the wash. OK, not always, but I think it did in the NFC matchup today.A lot of times, like the personal foul with the tap to Kap's helmet, was the right call. We might not like the RULE, but the CALL was correct. Sad but true, it's just the NFL.
@smokinaces You are whining. No rapes occurred. Your claim that the NFL wants an east coast vs west coach matchup? Amusing. Do you have evidence to support your paranoia? In the last 20 years there have been three west coast teams in the Super Bowl & the NFL has done just fine. Regardless of the teams in the game the Super Bowl is big business.
@A.F.Davis @smokinaces I'm a 49er fan and I didn't think that personal foul to Kap's facemask was a bad play. The rule sucks, but the play was called correctly. Sorry, you just can't make that contact with a QB's face. Them's the rules!
@smokinaces You're an idiot..."The NFL fixes games man!"...I bet you think 9/11 was an inside job too right?
The 49ers were the better team, Plain and Simple!
@smokinaces Ryan was hit hard but what would make it a penalty? Defenders momentum and no hands to the face. and 4th down Ryan throws to who? A. That's a bad decision by the qb when you have the best TE to ever play the game. B. The throw was behind the receiver who still had a chance to make the catch. Not sure why that's pass intereference...and the guys route wasn't deep enough for the first down regardless.
did you complain last year when the fraking 9-7 outscored for the year giants clear fumble was ruled a non fumble in the nfc championship game? a turnover that would have slammed the door on the giants?
@Rickapolis @JohnAlport1 @smokinaces I'm a 49er fan and I also agree-tired of the brother story line that hasn't even started yet.

A&M's Manziel Talks "Johnny Football" Nickname, Heisman Race
November 27th, 2012 11:31 AM║ Posted By: John Pennington ║ Permalink
║ Schools: Texas A&M
Tags: Heisman Trophy, Johnathan Manziel, Johnny Football, NCAA
In his first teleconference of the season, Texas A&M's Johnny Manziel fielded 64 questions in a little less than an hour. His fast answers and good-natured demeanor were just as much a hit with the media as his playing ability has been in the SEC spotlight. And that's pretty big.
"I'm this small-town kid, and I still see myself that way," he said. "I don't see myself as 'Johnny Football.' I see myself as Johnathan Manziel, a small-town guy from Kerrville (Texas)…
"The thing that's caught me off guard is going to dinner and somebody saying, 'Hey, can we get your autograph?' or 'Do you mind if you take a picture with my son?' I guess I haven't really grasped the whole entirety of it yet."
Asked about the Heisman Trophy race, Manziel admitted that it's "something you dream about as a kid." "When you're sitting there playing all these NCAA games as a kid and you create a player and you win the Heisman as a freshman because you just put up crazy numbers, it's something you can only sit back and dream about… This season has been incredibly, incredibly surreal. It's beyond my wildest imagination."
And that now famous moniker, "Johnny Football?"
Someone hung it on him during his redshirt season a year ago. Manziel said it's "funny and it fits."
When you play like this, yes, it does (and as a college football fan, I'd encourage you to watch both of these highlight packages):

I'm glad to be able to help. I was trying so hard to see if my inlaws boat which was their (only home) was visible but couldn't see it. Then I saw THE HILL!!! Inlaws boat went under the bridge : (

There are 2 boathouses in pretty good condition just up river from the pavillion at the entrance to the park, and one for sure in the park in the parking lot area of the pool. There is also a pontoon in the playground by the splash pad.

Wish I could say our home is safe, but we could see it up onlong the railroad bridge in the paper today. Cant find my Dad's, maybe his his in the park. Glad to see most of the boats on the Ellis side survived.
says ... on Monday, Jun 16 at 3:36 PM
Tammi....the boathouses that are over by the pavillion and the one in the park, are any of them grey with a wooden deck and an air conditioner on the side? Thanks!
says ... on Monday, Jun 16 at 4:13 PM
Does anyone have any idea if there are boats floating anywhere other than down by the bridge? Has anyone seen a grey one with a wooden deck and a parrot by the front door? Can't find ours yet! Thanks!
says ... on Monday, Jun 16 at 8:07 PM
There is a big unit w/ deck and pontoon attached next to pavillion, it was the last house on the West side. It was very sad to watch as we saw many sink right in their spot, or float out. As the water goes down I imagine that they will be visable.
says ... on Monday, Jun 16 at 8:38 PM

We have been told that ours was seen floating away, but haven't seen it in any of the pictures. It was grey,with a wooden deck,and had palm trees attached to it. It also had an air conditioner and a parrot by the front door.May have sunk down river.

"Green the Governor" at Grant Park's Shade Festival
Experience has shown that a governor's commitment to our air, water and green spaces can have a serious impact. Georgia's heritage of rivers, waterways, marshland, forest, farmland, green space and mountains is seriously threatened, and the state's reluctance to make substantial investments in sustainable infrastructure is jeopardizing our future. Our next governor must make a solemn commitment to preserve Georgia's natural heritage and encourage sustainable growth. Within the conservation community, Sierra Club has been working with coalitions like Environment Georgia, the Georgia Water Coalition, Save Georgia's Coast and Georgians for Smart Energy to identify straightforward and critical priorities for our next Governor. We'll be working with our allies to deliver this platform to the candidates and ask that you be sure to let candidates know that the Environment is a priority for you when you visit the polls. But for Sierra club, this wasn't enough. We have taken this effort as a call to action and brought it directly to Georgia voters. We have spend hours engaging the people of Georgia at festivals all summer, from SweetWater 420 to 790 The Zone Midsummer Music Fest and beyond. We are poised to now bring this vital effort to Atlanta's oldest public park, as we will be attending the 8th Annual Summer Shade Festival, August 28 & 29, 2010. This two day festival winds along the shaded pedestrian roadways of historic L.P. Grant Park.

Plan Your New Brunswick Vacation
New Brunswick is where the great Canadian forest, sliced by sweeping river valleys and modern highways, meets the Atlantic. To the north and east, the gentle, warm Gulf Stream reaches more than 90 beaches along 2,000 km (1,240 miles) of coastline. On the Bay of Fundy, four-story sculptures are carved by the tides at Hopewell Cape; you can literally walk along the floor of the ocean during low tide. In addition to the seacoast, pure inland streams, quaint towns with Victorian inns and manicured gardens, and historic cities such as Fredericton and Saint John draw visitors year-round. The province's dual heritage—35% of its population is Acadian French—adds cultural interest.

Biggest volcano hulks deep
S. Egts
The most massive volcano on Earth, with a footprint the size of New Mexico, crouches in the dark depths of the western Pacific Ocean. The base of the basaltic mound, Tamu Massif, may rival in area the largest known volcano in the solar system: Mars' Olympus Mons. In 2010 and 2012, a team led by oceanographer William Sager, then at Texas A&M University, bounced sound waves off the deep-sea mountain to measure its size. The researchers report September 8 in Nature Geoscience that Tamu Massif forms a broad, rounded dome rising about 4 kilometers from the seafloor and stretching 450 by 650 kilometers across. Its hollowed peak lies beneath 2 kilo-meters of water. Core samples extracted from the volcano's slopes show that, during its prime 145 million years ago, the ancient mound spewed lava sheets 23 meters thick.

text: I am trying to identify my control valve for my rain head. The only marking on it is W with either an 8 or a b on the upper left side of the W and then a 1. It is above the main control for the regular shower head, and is separate. It seems like it just controls the flow to the rain head no temp control. I will post a picture when i get one. Thank you very much for any help. Matt

Overhead Line and Tree Crews from three states will remain in Central Maryland to assist BGE should new outages occur
BALTIMORE, Feb. 9, 2010 – Baltimore Gas and Electric Company (BGE), a subsidiary of Constellation Energy (NYSE: CEG), today announced that it has restored electric service to the vast majority of customers affected by last Friday's historic snowstorm, but advised customers that they could experience new outages as another weather system is expected to bring significant snowfall to Central Maryland today and tomorrow.
"BGE employees have been working around-the-clock under extraordinarily difficult operating conditions, restoring electric service to more than 95,000 customers in less than four days," said A. Christopher Burton, senior vice president of gas and electric operations and planning for BGE. "But their work may not be over. With the approach of this second powerful and dangerous storm, BGE's field forces and other employees involved in the restoration effort are committed to continuing the very challenging and often hazardous work that they have been so focused on for nearly a week."
Linemen and support staff numbering between 450-500 from Kentucky, Tennessee and Ohio will remain in Central Maryland and continue to provide mutual assistance to BGE should it be needed. The total number of people involved in the restoration effort is approximately 1,500 which includes BGE personnel, contractors and out-of-state support. BGE's Call Center has taken more than 138,000 calls since the start of storm operations on Friday afternoon.
BGE encourages customers to take the following steps to help ensure the safety of their families as well as BGE employees engaged in the restoration effort:
* Stay away from downed power lines and call BGE at 1-877-778-2222 immediately to report them.
* Keep area around pad-mounted transformers and switches clear of ice and snow so that BGE restoration crews can locate the equipment and gain access. Pad-mounted transformers and switches are square green boxes (measuring approximately 3x3x3) which are usually located on front or side lawns in residential areas and are even larger green boxes adjacent to parking areas and buildings in commercial settings.
* Keep gas meters and attached equipment clear of ice and snow to avoid malfunction. Use a broom, not a shovel when clearing ice and snow from around gas meters.
* Keep ice and snow away from heat pump coils to avoid malfunction.
* Keep outside pipes which provide ventilation for direct-vent furnaces and water heaters clear of ice and snow.
* Keep outside dryer vents clear of snow and ice build-up.
* Mark areas such as in-ground swimming pools so that BGE personnel who may have to walk through backyards to access equipment can avoid walking on snow covered pool covers which may become unstable and collapse.
BGE thanks its customers for following these recommendations.
BGE, www.bge.com <file:///C:\Documents%20and%20Settings\e48945\Local%20Settings\Temporary%20Internet%20Files\OLK9A\www.bge.com> , headquartered in Baltimore, is Maryland's largest gas and electric utility, delivering power to more than 1.2 million electric customers and more than 640,000 natural gas customers in Central Maryland. The company's approximately 3,000 employees are committed to the safe and reliable delivery of gas and electricity, as well as enhanced energy management, conservation, environmental stewardship and community assistance. BGE is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Constellation Energy, www.constellation.com <file:///C:\Documents%20and%20Settings\e48945\Local%20Settings\Temporary%20Internet%20Files\OLK9A\www.constellation.com> , a FORTUNE 500 company also headquartered in Baltimore with subsidiaries that generate, sell and provide other energy-related services to customers throughout North America.

Literally re-wrote the school's passing records in just 25 games despite officially arriving on campus only 35 days prior to the season opener in 2010 ... Became the first Pirate signal-caller ever to complete over 700 passes for 7,000 or more yards (program-record 727 completions in 1,103 attempts for 7,192 yards - the latter, a career number which stands fourth among all ECU quarterbacks in history) ...

Competition in Atlantic Coast Conference wars while at Boston College brought a much-needed battle-tested, big-game mindset to a program which had lost a six-year signal-caller the previous season ... Vision, mobility, quickness, passing touch, poise, mental preparation and competitive instincts were all lauded by the coaching staff, but work ethic and leadership skills were most respected by teammates who, on a weekly basis, voted him to serve as team captain in 22 of the 25 contests (10-of-13 in 2010 and 12-of-12 in 2011).2011 Game-by-Game Statistics
