This call centre run by
FMFI Syria is helping the institution further its outreach and better understand what its
clients want.At the First MicroFinance Institution Syria (FMFI-S) it was found that beside the branch network, FMFI-S had no other channels in place to sell its products and/or service to its clients. The institution decided that the set-up of a call centre would improve its service and eventually its outreach. International best practices have also shown that for the microfinance client target group, this channel can be very successful and cost effective.
Some seven million Syrians, about 38 percent of the country's population, have a mobile phone. This makes getting in touch with clients and others who have shown an interest in getting a microfinance loan easier. With the help of the Frankfurt School of Finance & Management, FMFI-S started the process of improving customer service by upgrading the staffs' skills and reducing loan approval time.
To ensure that the clients were getting the best possible service, FMFI-S established a call centre to handle customer complaints; customer queries; or to get information to dormant clients or to people referred by other clients.
The call centre handles product issues including promotional campaigns. This call centre also allows the institution to diversify and expand the SME client base using lower cost solutions than the expansion of the branch network.
By the end of 2010, seven outbound campaigns had been executed. The result of this campaign was that 32 percent of those who were called had a conversation with an FMFI-S staff member. Of this 32 percent, about 10 percent of them went into a branch and got a loan. Although the actual outreach through the call centre only equaled three percent of total loans disbursed, this is expected to increase in the coming months.
All branches have anecdotally noticed that the call centre has played a role in attracting new clients. Though there is an increased traffic burden on the branches, the call centre has contributed to the increasing number of visitors (potential clients) in Damascus and Masyaf branches. The call centre has also helped in achieving the target sales in Lattakia branch during the fourth quarter of 2010.

Icyman2 wrote:If anyone is wondering why exactly there has been a lot of augments and big red (and also big refess) in folrart lately, perhaps it is to counter falkow. Perhaps falkow is still the big A strategy that is not only dominant, but also restrictive upon the all the timmy cards from being played, driving timmy players into spike players. Perhaps augments and 3x overdose is the B strategy which isn't as strong but counters strategy A, that people hate enough to all move to strategy B. Of course there exists a strategy C (mid refess) that is good against strategy B (augments) but dies to strategy A (falkow). I'm using augments and mid refess because anyone who received free set 11 has those cards. The fact that people would rather play strategy B (not strategy C which should be better in a strategy B dominant folrart arena) says something about the hatred felt to strategy A. In a successful game, a dominant strategy A can be achieved without the frustrations felt at not being able to do anything against it. Anyone who has played a non-aggressive character-based fun file has faced volfied and been locked out the entire match, unable to do anything. Stop playing characters I guess. Elite fencer? Start playing agi 3 I guess. Ex Mermaid? Start playing units with cheap good skills only I guess. Timestop+Rasam and Galderia+Lightning? I guess just quit this game altogether.
Icyman2 wrote:If we really want to drive this game forward, we need to push out more rares like prenerf 5* dilate which although was powerful, could be outrushed and killed with some strategic modification, modification which by the way is good and necessary for the development of the players.

Icyman2 wrote:It hasn't changed for more than a week now because people have lost interest in the game and aren't playing anymore. Perhaps due to crap like the above.
My argument was that the combos I listed wins vs any rush or mids file. That's a significant part of the game. I think the fact that these combos have been unrealized so far is due to probably gon's pestering of how weak galderia is or maybe how ruuca completely outshadowed rasam for a good part of the game.

ORLAND, Fla. (AP) -- Quentin Williams threw for 120 yards and one touchdown and Bethune-Cookman held off Florida A&M 21-16 on Saturday.
Williams also rushed for 86 yards for the Wildcats (9-2, 8-0 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference), who won their seventh consecutive game and 13th in conference play dating back to last season. Bethune-Cookman had already clinched the conference championship and a berth in the FCS playoffs.
Bethune-Cookman scored on consecutive possessions to take a 21-10 lead. Isidore Jackson scored on a 34-yard run with 3:13 remaining in the third quarter and Andronicus Lovette added a 1-yard rushing score with 11:30 left.
Florida A&M (4-7, 4-4) cut the lead to 21-16 when Damien Fleming connected with Dewayne Harvey for a 37-yard score with 8:04 remaining. The Rattlers had the ball in Bethune-Cookman's territory late in the game, but a fumble by Fleming gave the ball back to the Wildcats who ran out the clock.

Chilean matorral
Parque Nacional de Campana, Chile Photograph by David Olson
The Chilean matorral is an ecoregion in western central Chile that covers an area of approximately 57,300 square miles. This ecoregion is classified within the Mediterranean forests, woodlands, and scrub biome. Exhibiting high plant and vertebrate endemism, the entire ecoregion is classified as critically endangered due to intensive deforestation and persistent high air pollution due to pressures of a burgeoning human population. The reptilian endemism is particularly notable, especially with respect to the tree iguanas; moreover, there are numerous reptiles, birds and mammals of threatened conservation status that can be found in the Chilean matorral.
Chilean matorral ecoregion. WWF
Significant invasion of herbs has taken place from species introduced from the Mediterranean Basin during the Spanish settlement period beginning in the sixteenth century; these effects have been exacerbated by the inherent low nutrient soils, herbivory and overgrazing from faunal alien species and livestock brought onto the land.
Location and general description
The Chilean matorral constitutes a 100 kilometer-wide strip extending along the central part of the Chilean coast. The ecoregion boasts a very high level of flora endemism; moreover, it is considered as a critically endangered habitat, with ongoing assaults from deforestation by native peoples of the region, resulting in severe habitat loss and habitat fragmentation. The deforestation has not only reduced habitat, but has accelerated the establishment of large expanses of alien herbs that were brought in during the Spanish settlement period.
To the north of this ecoregion is the Atacama Desert; along the extensive eastern border lies the Southern Andean steppe; at the southeast is situated the Valdivian temperate forests ecoregion.
Biodiversity features
The neotropical ecoregion has many endemic plant species with affinities not only to the tropics, but to the Antarctic and the Andes. About 95% of the plant species are Chilean endemic, including Gomortega keule, Pitavia punctata, Nothofagus alessandrii and Jubaea chilensis. The Chilean matorral has several threatened plant species; some endangered species are Adiantum gertrudis, Avellanita bustillosii and Beilschmiedia berteroana. There are seven endemic birds found at altitudes ranging from rocky slopes to arid scrub. With regard to vertbrates, there are 206 recorded taxa in the Chilean matorral ecoregion, with a high reptilian endemism.
Endemic reptiles in the Chilean matorral are: Alvaro's anole (Pristidactylus alvaroi), the degu (Octodon degus), the black-spotted tree iguana (Liolaemus nigromaculatus), the braided tree iguana (Liolaemus platei) the brown tree iguana (Liolaemus fuscus), Hellmich's tree iguana (Liolaemus hellmichi), Muller's tree iguana (Liolaemus copiapensis), Kuhlman's tree iguana (Liolaemus kuhlmanni), Philippi's tree iguana (Liolaemus bisignatus), Schroeder's tree iguana (Liolaemus schroederi), shining tree iguana (Liolaemus nitidus), Chilean tree iguana (Liolaemus chiliensis), spotted false monitor (Callopistes maculatus), Yanez's lava lizard (Microlophus yanezi), Liolaemus atacamensis, Liolaemus pseudolemniscatus, Liolaemus reichei, Liolaemus silvai, Pristidactylus valeriae and Homonota gaudichaudii.
The Green-backed Firecrown (Sephanoides sephanoides), a bird of restricted range, is found in the Chilean matorral and south to Tierra del Fuego. Near-endemic amphibians are represented by the Vallenar Toad (Chaunus atacamensis), which occurs in and near oases and streams year-around. Breeding occurs in permanent pools (including livestock water tanks), streams and rivers.Eggs are laid in long strings, and the larvae develop where these were laid..
Near Threatened pichi. @ Cláudio Dias Timm/EOL Non-endemic special status mammals of the ecoregion are: the Endangered Andean Mountain Cat (Leopardus jacobita), the Near Threatened Atacama myotis (Myotis atacamensis), the Vulnerable Bridges degu (Octodon bridgesi), the Vulnerable kodkod (Leopardus guigna), the Near Threatened large long-clawed mouse (Chelemys megalonyx), the Near Threatened dromito del monte (Dromiciops gliroides), the Near Threatened pichi (Zaedyus pichiy), the Vulnerable Southern Pudu (pudu puda).
Non-endemic special status amphibians in the Chilean matorral ecoregion are represented by the Near threatened black spiny-chest frog (Alsodes nodosus), which can be found amongst scrub vegetation in the vicinity of perennial or ephemeral streams, where this anuran breeds. Other non-endemic anuran species in the ecoregion within the Chilean matorral are the Banded wood frog (Batrachyla taeniata) in the north of ecoregion, Chile four-eyed frog (Pleurodema thaul), and Helmeted water toad (Caudiverbera caudiverbera).
Non-endemic threatened birds of the Chilean matorral are the Near Threatened Andean Condor (Vultur gryphus), the Threatened Inca tern (Larosterna inca), the Near threatened Chilean flamingo (Phoenicopteris chilensis), the Near Threatened Peruvian pelican (Pelecanus thagus), the Endangered Peruvian diving-petrel (Pelecanoides garnotii), the Near Threatened elegant tern (Sterna elegans), the Near Threatened guanay cormorant (Phalacrocorax bougainvillii), the Near Threatened Inca tern (Larosterna inca), the Near threatened Chilean flamingo (Phoenicopteris chilensis), the strictly marine Vulnerable Humboldt penguin (Spheniscus humboldti), and the Near Threatened red-legged cormorant (Phalacrocorax gaimardi).
Ecological status
The conservation status of the Chilean matorral is classified as Critical/Endangered; correspondingly the ecoregion is given a G200 standing, indicating it is one of the worldwide priorities for conservation. The Chilean matorral is codified by the designation NT1201 in the World Wildlife Fund scheme. Air pollution is significant, expecially the persistent visible haze engendered by the presence of fine particulate matter from agricultural and solid waste combustion of indigenous peoples of the region. Additionally, the establishment of large tracts of alien species of Mediterranean herbs has ensued from continual land clearing and human induced fire disturbance.
Types and severity of threats
The ecoregion has been severely affected by fire, mining, logging, garbage dumps, urbanization, air pollution, water pollution and soil contamination. Water pollution of the region's rivers is of particular concern, as it relates to the expanding human population of the region; this impact is particularly severe to sensitive anuran species, such as Rhinella acamensis in the northern portion of the ecoregion, and to Alsodes nodosus. As an ongoing matter, this is the least protected ecoregion in Chile. The ongoing land clearing and burning by indigenous peoples not only is causing habitat loss, but is a significant contribution to propagation of alien herbs; moreover, these activities are frequently compounded by the overgrazing of domestic livestock (e.g. sheep, goats, cattle), whose herbivory and trampling promote alien species over the native understory and grasses.
Justification of ecoregion delineation
La Campana Parque Nacional. @ C.Michael Hogan This long and narrow ecoregion is bounded on the west by the Pacific Ocean and on the east by the southern Andean Mountains. This ecoregion represents the transitional habitat between the ultra-dry Atacama Desert to the north, and the moist Valdivian temperate forests to the south. The northern linework follows Simmonetti and Montenegro (1994) who delineate the Atacama Desert, and the southern linework originated from expert opinion during several priority setting workshops for the Valdivian ecoregion complex (Valdivia, Chile, April 19-21, 1999 and Concepción, Chile, March 24, 2000). Justification for this ecoregion can be found in its many endemic plants and unique species associations (Mittermeier at al. 1999; WWF & IUCN 1997).

Prog Rock
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
"I much prefer Brighton Rock, or Blackpool if I can't get any of that"
Prog Rock (not to be confused with Prod rock) was a particularly widespread, mainly airborne, virus, which is thought to be mostly under control now in the civilised world. Strains such as Genesis, King Crimson and the much later Marillion were rife amongst the disaffected, Pseudointellectual (mainly male) youth, much as the Grunge virus of the early 90's became to deadly effect. Most Prog Rock bands only lasted a limited time, band members often breaking up due to musical similarities.
Sometimes referred to as "Prague Rock" due to its roots in Czechloslovakian Folk Music, progressive rock rebelled against the more popular regressive rock, in which artists would work backwards, from material about self actualization and to political philosophy, to songs like "Work Sucks", "School Sucks", "I Want My Mommy" and finally "Gurgle Gurgle". In short, progressive rock groups decided to stop writing three-minute songs about sex and instead wrote ten-minute songs about nothing at all.
And remember: if we'd had CDs in 1967, "Inna-Gadda-Da-Vida" would have been seventy-five goddamn minutes long.
Origins of Prog Rock
Prog rock was first founded when some racist Europeans decided they had it with that rock music based on nigger blues and decided to create rock music based on Aryan classical music. Just like Hitler they were hugely popular at their heyday, but as soon as they tried too hard they were thrown in the trashcan, only to be talked about with shame.
With their love for the flamboyant and theatrical Prog Rock soon cut a colourful swave through the music scene, as long haired youths nodded knowingly into pints of guinness and light ales worldwide, whilst discussing the musical virtuosity of Karn Evil 9, or the sheer genius of a 27 minute Mellotron solo.
Symptoms of Prog Rock
Symptoms include -
- 27 minute song composition
- keyboard solos
- "creative" hairstylings
- ability to understand EXACTLY what Peter Gabriel was talking about
If you feel you may be suffering from any of these symptoms we advise you to seek medical help immediately.

One common side effect of Progressive Rock is bankruptcy. This can be caused by the following:
- Touring with a 50/9 - piece orchestra
- Utilizing 37 studio musicians
- Why does your keyboard player have 27 keyboards and an electronic percussion set-up? Why does your guitar player have 15 guitars up on stage? Why does your singer need to play the Mandolin? Can't he just sing? And why is your drummer using a set that would make Neil Peart hold a garage sale?
- Roger Waters
- Holding a concert on a floating stage in Venice.
Most of this can be alleviated by contracting a different virus such as Punk or Indie.

Pros: Forward, engaging mids. Overall euphonic, non-fatiguing, super comfortable, etc.
Cons: Lacking deep bass extension
At the time of this writing, these headphones cost less than $130 on Amazon. At that price point, they are an incredible value. For some reason, these headphones seem to be damned with faint praise in many reviews on the web. I think some of the professional headphone reviewers are afraid to give top marks to inexpensive headphones, so they use terms like "more refined" for the more expensive ones. I enjoyed listening to the HD558 more than my $400 HD600 (yes even with a good DAC/AMP), so I sold the HD600 and continue to enjoy the HD558. If that makes me unrefined, so be it!
What the 558 offer:
-Beautiful, natural, relatively neutral sound overall
-Forward, engaging mids (what I like best about these)
-Non-fatiguing highs
-Rich bass with good bass impact but not exagerrated bass (look elsewhere for "bass monsters")
-Wide soundstage
-One-sided, replaceable cable (my favorite type)
-Good looks (my second favorite looking current-production Sennheisers after the HD650)
-Easy to drive (50 ohm impedance means you can drive these easily with iPod, phone, etc)
-Supremely comfortable on my fat head
What they don't offer (and neither did the HD600):
-Great sub-bass extension
Other points to consider
-As an open design, these do not offer noise blocking or prevent leakage (this is not a con, per se)
-They come with a 10ft (really long) straight cord terminating in a 6.35 mm stereo plug. The 3.5mm adapter is a bit unwieldy for use with phones, etc. However, Sennheiser offers a separately sold inexpensive 4.5ft replacement cable with a 3.5mm termination, perfect for such uses
If you are not using a dedicated amp and are looking to plug headphones directly into your phone/MP3 player/laptop/computer, don't need closed headphones to keep sound out/in, then IMO these are the best Sennheisers available and one of the best choices of any brand at any price point. Of course they sound even better with a dedicated amp. I'm primarily using them with a Schiit Modi DAC and Asgard 2 amp, and they sound fantastic.
The only limitation I find is that the bass extension is not adequate for 2% of my rap and electronic music. Eg, ODB's "Harlem World" or MF Doom's "Hey". Otherwise they sound fantastic with all genres (including rock, jazz, pop, and 98% of my rap/electronic).

Teal Lake and Lost Land Lake provide 3000 acres of excellent fishing and recreation. We are "THE QUIET LAKES", the only 2 major lakes in the Midwest with a 10 mph. legal speed limit. Any size motor is allowed but must stay at 10 mph and there is no water-skiing, speedboats, or jet skies.
A perfect and safe setting to truly enjoy the many activities these 2 lakes have to offer: Fishing (be it for the Musky, northern pike, walleye, bass, crappie, perch, or bluegill), boating with motor or just rowing, pontoon cruising, canoeing, kayaking, hydro-biking, sailing, island exploring, geocaching, Eagle and blue heron watching, loon calling, oh and SWIMMING.. just to name a few.
Teal Lake is 1/2 mile across and 3/4 miles long, with six wilderness islands that are State owned. Fed by springs and tamarack swamps, Teal has a clear yet auburn tint to the water, with excellent fishing and swiming all summer. click on map for larger image.
The public is welcome to explore the islands, stop for picnic at one of the many picnic sites, watch the nesting bald eagles soar, or fish with the blue herons in the reeds. It is not unusual to see deer and even an occasional bear on the islands' undisturbed shoreline. The islands provide a unique layout that allows Teal Lake to have multiple nesting loons, so the call of loon always accompanies Teal Lake sunsets. The islands also provide sheltered water on windy days, as does the river and channel. A perfect and peaceful setting for all.
Lost Land Lake is the sister lake to Teal Lake, connected by a man-made channel dug by hand in the logging days and still passable by all size boats today. Lost Land is slightly larger than Teal with many good inlets and bays for fishing yet a bit windier because there are no islands.
The two lakes combined provide plenty of space for fisherman, boaters, and wildlife to all enjoy.
You are always welcome to bring your own boat, canoe, or kayak.. and "put in" on our PRIVATE launch ON-property (reserved for resort guest use only). OR better yet, save the hassle and rent fishing boats, pontoons, and other watercraft from us.
Interested on what fish species lie beneath the quiet waters of Teal lake and our sister lake Lost Land Lake? Thinking about booking a Fishing Guide? Take the kids out for Fishing School? Start forming that story of "the one that got away" as well as the one that DID NOT. Go to Fishing information to work out the details.
BRAGGING rights are always important, especially if you join the elite few who have landed the great MUSKY! Grandpa Nelson Ross was one of the founders of the catch and release program for the musky, and we proudly carry on the tradition today. There is an old fashion paper chart in the office each summer with names of who caught, when and what size. We then put it on the web for all to show back home. Also included are fishing resports for past years. Come see your name or see what has been landed in the past years, so you can plan for your name to join the list this year.

This is the tightest choke and therefore has the tightest shot patternWhat a shot group looks like when it is fired toward a sheet of paper.. It keeps the pellets together over a greater distance and is therefore used for longer shots, generally beyond 40 yards.
This choke is not as tight as the full choke and is used for mid-range shots, usually between 30 and 40 yards.
This choke barely controls the spread of the shot and is used for shots between 20 to 30 yards.

Those planning on witnessing the Festival de la Luz, Costa Rica 2008 parade this saturday night better dress warmly and bring rain gear. The Instituto Meteorológico Nacional said that a cold front will bring chilly, windy weather and a good chance of light rain Saturday night.
The weather institute said the winds would be their strongest today but the temperature would be colder Saturday. The estimate is 16 degrees C (60 F) during the parade Saturday night but with wind making the temperature seem colder.
The Festival de la Luz parade begins at 6 p.m. from Parque la Sabana. The route is east on Paseo Colón and turning onto Avenida 2 at the Hospital San Juan de Dios and ends at Calle 11. Municipal officials are expecting an incredible million to 1.5 million persons to line the parade route.

Comments On Jun 23, 2015:I thought these were going to be the answer to my problems. I needed something that was bright with low current draw. So I picked up a set of these. They worked great for a month or two. Then one bulb burned out and then another. I call Warn and told them they were burning out and they sent be a new bulb for free. Then after more use I had another bulb burn out. Called again and they sent me two replacements. I am thinking there is some sort of problem if they are so quick to send out free replacements. Then when installing the new bulbs I noticed a fine silver powder in the light housing. The ballast and not secured down and rattle around and were pretty much falling apart. So I had to use some RTV to secure the ballast in place. As of right now I have one headlight working and one not. For the amount of money spent I would suggest getting LEDs. Which seem to be almost bullet proof.

Geology and Geomorphology
The basin lies entirely within the Salem Plateau section of the Ozark Plateau, a portion of the larger Interior Highlands physiographic province. The Salem Plateau is a dissected plateau largely on Cambrian and Ordovician carbonate rocks with streams dissecting it in varying degrees. Along the drainage divides, the plateau has been best preserved as a rolling upland surface with a local relief of 100-200 feet. Karst features such as sinkholes, springs, and caves are locally prominent within the Salem Plateau (MDNR 1986).
The basin includes portions of four of Missouri's natural divisions (listed in descending order based on estimated basin percentages): Ozark division ( 85%), Ozark Border division ( 11%), Osage Plains division ( 3%), and Big River division ( 1%) (Figure Ge01) (Thom and Wilson 1980).
The majority of the basin's surface is covered in dolomites and sandstones of Ordivician and Cambrian age (Figure Ge02). The basin boundaries lie in Jefferson City-Cotter dolomite and the streams incise progressively older Roubidoux and Gasconade formations. Eminence dolomite is exposed in the Osage River valley near the Morgan-Camden county line. The Osage River and all of its major tributaries incise the Gasconade Formation. There are a few scattered exposures of Eminence dolomite along the Osage River and Tavern Creek in Miller County.
The geology of the basin creates conditions for a considerable amount of subsurface water movement. This subsurface water movement coupled with the presence of carbonate bedrock from the Paleozoic period provides an ideal environment for the development of karst topography. Caves, underground streams, and sinkholes are relatively abundant within the basin.
Dry Auglaize and Wet Glaize subbasins have unique geological and hydrological attributes. Both subbasins are underlain by numerous large faults, allowing a considerable amount of surface water to move underground within each subbasin as well as to adjacent subbasins. A good portion of the water in the Dry Auglaize Subbasin flows underground in a northwesterly direction crossing the subbasin divide to emerge in springs of the Niangua River Subbasin along the Niangua River or the Niangua Arm of Lake of the Ozarks. The Dry Auglaize Subbasin has no notable springs, while the Wet Glaize Subbasin has six. Four of these have discharges greater than 2 cubic feet per second (cfs). Four of the six, including the three largest, emerge from the Gasconade Formation (MDNR 1995).
Soil Types
Soils of the basin vary widely in character (Figure Ge03). Some soils are infertile stony-clay type soils, while others are fertile loess-capped types. Some soils are stone-free, while others may have a stone content exceeding 50 percent, and other areas may have no soil, exhibiting only exposed bedrock (STATSGO 1998).
The majority of the basin is dominated by stony, cherty soils found on steep slopes while soils of lower stone content are found on more level areas. Soils formed in the residuum from cherty limestone or dolomite, range from deep to shallow and contain a high percentage of chert in most places. Soils formed in a thin mantle of loess are found on the ridges and have fragipans, which restrict root penetration. Soils formed in loamy, sandy, and cherty alluvium are found in narrow bottomland areas, and are the most fertile soils in the basin (Allgood and Persinger 1979).
Soils in the basin are generally acidic and of moderate-to-low fertility. Productivity of the soils in the basin varies widely, with forest and grassland being the dominant land cover. A typical landscape of this basin consists of broad forested areas on moderately steep to very steep slopes and small pastures and cultivated fields on smoother ridge tops and valleys. The moisture holding capacity of most soil in the basin is limited, making many areas unsuitable for crop production.
Overall, erosion rates in the basin are relatively low as compared to those in the West Osage River Basin. The majority of the basin has annual erosion rates between 0-100 tons of sediment/mi.2. Higher erosion rates (100-300 tons/year/mi.2) may occur along the southeastern and western borders of the basin (USDA-SCS 1970). Heavy spring rains of three to eight inches, corresponding with poor land cover conditions, have the potential to cause severe erosion problems on sloping lands. Most erosion damage occurs in the form of sheet and rill erosion. Locally intensive land use practices may contribute to higher erosion rates. New housing developments, road construction, and overgrazing by livestock, may denude land causing increased erosion and sediment pollution (USDA-SCS 1970).
Stream channel erosion downstream of Bagnell Dam has been significant and has led to a number of studies. Erosion is greater near Bagnell Dam and decreases downstream (Belt 1983). UEC (1983) concluded that since Bagnell Dam was closed, the Osage River has caused approximately 10 acres of erosion per year and the average width of the Osage River channel has increased approximately 1 foot per year. Bank recession is occurring in varying degrees all along the Osage River below Bagnell Dam. The instream islands are also subject to erosive processes.
Below Bagnell Dam, the Osage River channel has experienced an increase in cross-sectional area caused by degradation, channel widening and base level lowering (Germanoski and Ritter 1988). Degradation appears to be the most important cause of tributary incision. Since the closure of Bagnell Dam in 1931, tributary streams have incised an average of 2.2 m and widened approximately 1.2 m at their mouths (Germanoski and Ritter 1988). Bank failure along the Osage River channel has occurred by two main processes, block gliding and slab failure. Block gliding is a slip process which involves large volumes of material moving on a planar surface as a single discrete block during periods of instability. Along the lower Osage River, sliding of this type involves portions of banks exceeding 5 feet in thickness and 20 feet in length. Block gliding results when high flows are followed by rapid drops of river stage to a level below the intermediate zone of the bank stratigraphy, and maintenance of that river level for several days. Slab failure is produced by lateral cutting at the surface of the Osage River into the bank materials. This incision engenders an overhanging slab which eventually falls when the overlying mass can no longer be supported. Slab failure is also significant because it is responsible for removal of the tree growth along the Osage River (Ritter 1983).

Good stuff
Im in Afghanistan, and will be coming home here real soon. to see me beautiful lady Cassandra Ciotuszynski!!!! been 9 months cant wait!
My Inspiration
I have a dear family friend with cancer...Not her first round with it..she has been a survivor before. I love to see her post everyday on facebook and her picutures of her surrounded by her kids, grandkids and nieces. Recently there have been several pictures of her..smiling from ear to ear..as her family has literally painted flowers on her balding beautiful head, they have temporary tattooed it with crazy stickers, and recently the most touching of all..they all put on bright red lipstick and each of them kissed her precious head. She is a inspiration to so many..with just the little things she does, and even though occassionaly she gets frustrated at this terrible disease and what it has done to her body, it is short lived. Her "prayer warriors" are always there to pick her up and give her strength and hope. Karen Opp Oyler

There are no products matching the selection.
I just wanted to get back to you folks and tell you how pleased I was with the service (and respect) I recieved from the Customer Service Agent who took and placed my order. It is now the riding season and Engineer style MC's are becoming more and more difficult to come by. Your Customer Service Agent was patient and kind to me. She researched the actual boot itself and compaired it to another very similar model. She then researched warehouse inventory and availability, as well as investigating how the sizes worked for that particular boot manufacturer. The information she provided me helped me to make - what I now consider - to be a very sound size decision. Great job!!!!!!! I look forward to getting my new boots."

text: Ghostbusters is one of the most beloved movies ever. With Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Sigourney Weaver, Harold Ramis, and Rick Moranis, the film put together some of the biggest comedy actors who were around in 1984. And with them fighting ghosts, it put funny actors in crazy situations. What's not to love? With the Adult Ghostbusters Costume, you can feel just like one of these paranormal hunters. This costume features a tan jumpsuit with the Ghostbusters logo on it, and an inflatable proton pack backpack. There should be plenty of ghosts and ghouls to hunt down on Halloween, so you'll really have your hands full in this excellent costume. Prepare some one-liners and watch out for ectoplasm slime from that little green guy. He's the worst.

News 12 First at Five / Thursday, April 4, 2013
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- Richmond County School Superintendent Dr. Frank Roberson is telling News 12 he follows the law in the way discipline is given out. PTA President Monique Braswell says the opposite.
Roberson disciplines any school officials caught breaking the rules. He says being fair is always important.
"We look at the facts around the case. We do a historical review and where is the case law as it pertains to situations that we dealt with," Roberson said.
Roberson reprimanded Assistant Principal William Henry who was accused of driving under the influence. Teacher Francine Wynn was reprimanded for putting a child in a room with the lights out.
Three staff members were reprimanded for how a specials needs student was restrained.
"You take one out the classroom for safety of children, but you leave another one in the classroom. Those are the unfair practices that I'm talking about," Braswell said.
"The PTA president is not privy to all of the facts the administration has to consider," Roberson said.
"Do the things in the way they should be done. Stop treating people differently because you like them," Braswell said.
"It's clearly unfair. It's not an informed statement. You can't know what we have to address around this table," Roberson said.
A table where critics say teachers and administrators should be held accountable.
