I have just moved to Princeton from a one-bedroom, urban apartment. Now I have 2.25 acres and an insane ambition. I have dozens of varieties of vegetable, flower and herb seeds on the way; about a dozen or so fruit trees (all the usual suspects plus a few trendier ones like medlar and quince); and more berry bushes than I can count. There will be chickens. There will be mushroom logs. There will be bees. Way more than one girl can do on her own. My vision is this: we garden together, at my house …

Comments about ATLAS Women's Elektra 1023 Snowshoes:
The strapping system to hold the heel of your boot into the snowshoe needs to be properly broken in for it to work well. New showshoes will need periodic tightening when in use. This can be quite annoying. The company is aware of this shortcoming. This was my experience snowshoeing in Grand Teton National Park over 5 days with 6 other people that had rented new Atlas snowshoes of this model and in various other sizes. Other than that, this product performed satisfactorily.

Ulorian wrote:(a bunch of stuff that is all too true)
I agree that monster levels and monster traits should be handled separately, each with their own level lag value. Although the current T20 monster system isn't set up to support this well, it could be done.
Basically, monster traits would produce a straight-up level adustment, while monster levels would be purchased at a discount (like maybe each humanoid level counts as half a regular level). This is kind of what other folks have suggested earlier in the thread. But to incorporate Ulorian's suggestion, don't force PCs to take all, or any, of the monster levels. So you might be able to play a 1st-level Ogre Warrior as the equivalent of a 3rd-level character because he has none of the Giant levels.
It seems that nobody ever wants to take monster levels. They are always getting forced on players. One could claim this was for balance reasons, but a lot of the time I think it's simply because "well, that's just how many levels the monster has, so you have to take them."

I went to your store to get a fish. I went with my friends father because i am staying with him for spring break you guys had lots of fish but we are not allowed to choose the fish that we wanted. There was a sign that said no choosing. When you want a fish for a pet that will be yours then you want to choose the one that looks the best to you. Because your store did not let me choose the fish I wanted and the person was rude about it she yelled at me can't you read the sign you can't choose the fish other wise it will take all day. I was kind of offended by this because i have down syndrome. So since it was in a mall and since there was a wal-mart near your store i went and got my fish from there and they did not care that it took a long time. We had to wait longer in the line because they had more customers(sp) but the good news is they let you pick the fish that I wanted and their fishes cost lesser than yours. I think it would be very good idea if you let people choose the fish that they want because it is going to be a pet.
Just happened on to this site...............My name is Jeanie. One would think that when you are in the business to "please thepublic", and especially when you are selling live creatures tous...that you would enjoy helping the person find their special newfriend. There have been many times over the years that I too saw just thatperfect fish. I am now age 57 with 2 tanks at home, 4 at work and my Son has 4 athis home ( all of the above are 55 -125 gallon sizes ). With some imagination and creativity; it isn't hard to sort a smallgroup out, knowing that the one fish is in there. Then just go fromthere on the smaller scale ! email@example.com
I have a feeling the pet store has a very *good* reason for notallowing people to pick their fish (I just typed fick their pish, thatis sad because I tend to talk that way, but I usually don't type it!). If they are a small store and understaffed or really really busy,letting every single person handpick every single fish would takeforever and a day. One clerk would be tied up with one customer, whileseveral other customers became frustrated with the wait and left. (I can remember being a kid and spending an hour staring at the fishbefore my mom finally became frustrated and told the poor clerk 'thefirst one who swims into the net will be fine!' I never knew thedifference.) I don't agree with the way the clerk acted, but I can understand oneof the possible reasons behind the rule and her frustration.
How can you single out a fish (in a school) follow it, then get theclerk to net it? They all look the same to me and I have had two tanksfor twenty years.
I'm going to disagree with most on here about this. Don't think I amgoing to hold back because of the disability aspect, that would bedoing you injustice. One they had a sign. Two it isn't very easy tocatch one fish from a tank full and the store is probably limited onhelp. That said you did not deserve rude treatment and in that aspectthe employee was wrong. Hope you enjoy your fish.
i didn't know there was a store that wouldn't let you choose. freedomof choice is one of the most important things to everyone. i'm sorrythat woman was rude to you, but some people simply have no manners. ilove wal mart. their prices can't be beat and they offer so manythings. stick with wal mart and let those other places where theyobviously don't know how to treat people fall by the wayside.
Great letter! I remember when I got pet geckos for my 11th birthday Itook hours staring in the tank and deciding which 2 to get. I cantotally relate to this letter. I would be upset if I didn't get tochoose what pet to adopt. It is something that you want to put a lotof thought into. Some animals you can just connect with no matter whatspecies they are.
The "Can't you read?" comment is condescending disability or not. Asthe previous poster said if she had been nice and explained it to younicely that it's hard to get the right fish that would have been ok,rather than yelling it. Geeze. I'm sorry you didn't get to pick your fish there. I would have wantedto pick my fish too.
I think this is a great letter. Good for you for handling yourself sowell when you were treated rudely. I don't know that I would haveshown the same restraint in your position ;) But I certainly would nothave given this store my business, and I won't either, should I everfind myself in need of a fish ;) How's that Wal mart fish doing? :)
I think the OP was offended by the fact that the employee made acomment about "can't you read the sign", which Billy though wasimplying he was illiterate due to his condition, not using it as acrutch. Great letter, this is an excellent point. I think that if a customerwants a specific fish, they should try their best to catch it, and ifit gets away, keep trying for other choices that look good.Personally, when I purchase fish, I just get the ones that get caught,but if they looked bad, I would most definately want to have a choice.
The did the right thing. He doesn't like the policy a store has so heleft and took his business elsewhere. He then wrote a letter to thecompany explaining why he is not shopping there. He didn't ask forfreebies, he didn't threaten, he simply made a suggestion for a policychange. As for being offended by being asked can't you read, I think anyonewould be regardless if they have a disability or not.
I don't think the OP was offended that he could not pick the fish hewanted - I think he was offended that the clerk asked him if he couldread. I agree with the other person who said that the clerk probably saysthat to everyone - I don't think you were singled out because you haveDown Syndrome. I can't have goldfish because they die within 24 hours when I buythem, but when I did buy them, I liked picking out my own too. Glad you got taken care of at Wal-mart, Billy!
I'd just like to take a moment to politely educate people that it is"Down syndrome," not "Downs syndrome." I prefer it with the "s"myself, but gave up the battle long ago when the various officialorganizations that represent individuals living with Down syndromemade it clear that their preference was just "Down."
I feel if you wanted to pick out a certain fish then you go to a storethat allows it, not to one that posts they do not allow this. How dare you use your diability as a crutch. You should be ashamed ofyourself. I know people with Downs and my Mother has worked with Downsfor 25+ years and for you to say that is ignorant. I am happy to hear that you did however find the fish you were lookingfor.
Wow.. are family members and friends already teaching you to try touse your "disability" to your advantage? That has NOTHING to do withyour complaint. You clearly stated that the policy was posted.
"can't you read the sign you can't choose the fish other wise it willtake all day. I was kind of offended by this because i have downsyndrome." This has nothing to do with your Downs Syndrome. It has everything todo with the fact that the store has a posted policy. While she was right, it can take all day (and ReadheadWithGlasses goesfurther explaining), I agree that a pet store should do better to hookpeople up with the right pet. I'll bet she says "can't you read" to everyone, regardless of theirability. That's the rude way of telling people that there is a signthat spells out the rules. What she should have done was to say, "I'm sorry, but we've found thatit really ties up the store to let people pick their own fish. I'lltell you what... I'll try to get the fish you want, but if I can't getit, then I'm going to have to revert back to store policy. I hope youunderstand."
I have to admit that I disagree. A tank full of 100 guppies meansthey stick the net in and you get the fish that lands in the net. Igrew up with a fish tank, and we never got to choose the fish, otherthan the TYPE of fish, when we were at the pet store. I would suggest you leave the Down Syndrome bit out. If you're goingon the net, typing letters to companies, and being so independent, thefact that you have Down Syndrome is irrelevant. At this point, youhave to choose: Do you want to be like everyone else, or do you wantto use DS as a reason why you should get special treatment?
I agree with you. If this is a pet store, certainly they let peoplepick the dog, cat, bird, hamster, etc. that they want. A fish is nodifferent. When we had an aquarium, my daughter handpicked each andevery fish, and the saleslady had a lot of patience even though ittook a long time. It's an important decision, and you shouldn't bepressured into buying a pet you don't want. I think you did the rightthing by going somewhere else to buy your fish.
You're absolutely right. Since it's going to be your pet, you did wellto let them know they lost a customer. Going to another store thatcares better for their animals and customers is very smart!

Title: The Kids Love them
Date: Mar 21, 2013
When i first got them I thought they were adorable but realized after that they were really hard to hold... I luckily was adding the kids names and a truck on them with vinyl which helped. I thought the kids little hands and the weight of juice in them would make it hard but the kids actually did really well. No spilled juice! The bottom part of cone came off and i made sure to carefully wash that as I don't think the black sticker on it will hold up. Wish that was more a vinyl to withstand washing and getting wet. Overall, they were great, the kids loved them, and my worries of them being hard to use weren't even an issue.

Date: Mar 20, 2013
These are horrible! I didn't use them at all, what a huge waste of money. Here's why: 1) you need to wash them before use and the black sticker in the base peels and bubbles up 2) they are very difficult to hold onto especially for a child! 3) the opening at the top is so small you have to use a funnel to get your drink in. Cute idea, but not realistic for a child or anyone for that matter! Not worth it!!

Super cute and fun construciton cone cup to give out at my boys birthday party it is a construction theme and It exceeded my expectations I honestly thought i was going to recieve a tiny little cup that the kids could barley drink out of but no It's big and just the perfect size for any child I absouloutely loved it and so did my boys! The reason I give it a 4 star rating is because it was kind of hard to pop out the top to pour the drink it took me a while until i finally figured it out. Other than that I love the product and would recommend this to a friend.

Obama applauds union-busting school board that fires every teacher at a Rhode Island high school
Oh, George, what is US politics other than slogans? Heck, I can give you two: "yes, we can" and "change you can believe in". Still makes me chuckle. As for schools, I know that union busting and calling it reform is still union busting. But, I tell you what, George, I'll keep my eyes open for Obama's progressive agenda. Have you seen any sign of it yourself, or is the Big O still trying to outflank Palin on the right hoping to win over all them Tea Baggers by jettisonning all those lefty elites slaving away at Wal-Mart as elites so often do? What is Obama's base now? Fourteen democrat-right-or-wrong pundits, thirty-five insiders, and an outdated email list of people too pissed off to bother voting? Obama is yesterday's man. The Corpocracy is already interviewing potential successors.
Polls show liberals and blacks still approve of the job Obama's doing. That approval, however, doesn't necessarily mean they will make the effort to vote, and many of the activists and groups that worked to get people to the polls in 2008 say they're not inclined right now to help Democrats in the fall.
"The energized base which transformed the nation and elected our first black president (is) now disengaged," Democratic political strategist Donna Brazile says. "If this was September, I would hit the panic button."
I think you can add to that unions and especially teachers.
Whatever in your slogan-filled existence ever gave you the idea that I'm defending an ideal? It's just that there must be some islands of rationality in a hate-filled world where people can discuss paths to a reasonable world. Unless you get down to an understanding of the takeover of the American mind, you're only dealing in hate-filled cliches, FM. There's gotta be something more than that. But perhaps you've already worked out an explanation, a Gestalt psychology encompassing all the little wierdnesses.
It's just that that depth is not obvious in your reliance on google.
You're the one enthralled to the slogans, George. Certainly Obama has given you nothing more than slogans. And a rational person would have long ago recognized there is no hope, audacious or otherwise, in the Democratic Party. The islands of rationality are there, George, constantly speaking, constantly appealing, and it is you who chooses to ignore them out of loyalty (to the false hope of Obama) or fear (of Palin). I'm not reallu sure which. But there are very brave Americans fighting the madness everyday and they include Obama and the Democrats among the mad.
Trouble is, FM, you've lost sight of the enemy that's gonna rise up and kick us all in the teeth. As H.G.Wells put it, history is a race between education and the collapse of civilization (fitting on the eve of World War 2).
Here's how Bageant described the American situation is his latest missive from Mexico, Moon Over Gringo Gulch:
"Every American, every man woman and child lives by the fruit of the empire's sword, fully expecting the lights to come on each evening, fresh coffee to gurgle in the morning and the car to start right up. The Internet connection to work and for Australian wine to be on the supermarket shelves. Those who do understand where it all comes from -- which is to say from an unsustainable commodity economy propped up by phony money at gunpoint -- seldom object publicly, if there is the slightest risk. The relative few who grasp the inevitable cruelties of empire, especially of empires in decline, are inwardly resigned to their own insignificance in the larger scheme of things. A slim minority of youth still have the energy and idealistic anger to protest, as in Seattle's WTO fracas a decade ago. But for every one of them there are hundreds of thousands of citizens who say, "Well there's not much I can do about it." Both sides are right of course. But one swamps the other, reducing it to entertainment value on the evening news.
We find ourselves trapped on a dark and nasty merry-go-round. One that keeps going faster and faster to the point where everyone is too terrified to jump off. So we hang in there. And the state's one voice to the many says, "Don't pay attention to the wreckage on either side of the tracks. Because this train is bound for glory, this train. Ask any televangelist or Pentagon general. Ask any of the economist eunuchs inside the president's high sanctum, engineering "the recovery" in the name of God, cheap oil and the new jobless populist republic. Yessiree, there's light at the end of the tunnel, just around a few more bends. Don't let the fact that the track keeps descending downward bother you. And besides, if there is a buck to be made in hell, we will triumph. Because after all, we are The Americans."
Somehow, those folks have to be made to face up to what they have helped shape by their becoming completely dependent on sword and the market. Everything else is kind of a shallow rant.
Trouble is, FM, you've lost sight of the enemy that's gonna rise up and kick us all in the teeth.
But George, even Bageant would agree (Elsewhere I've linked to another article where he essentially says so) that Obama is kneeling on the floor, fitting the boots.
But never mind, just keep repeating the Obama mantra:
Hope and change, change and hope
Krishna Krishna hopey changey
Hopey changey, Krishna Rama
Rama Rama changey hopey
Chaps, in the absence of anything more sustaining for the political economy we inherited than that, and despite your telling critical analysis disguised as witticisms, I'll have to go with preservation of what's left of a system until more useful remedies are forthcoming.
And yes, aQ, Joe is not taken in by Obama, but he is also critical of the commodity fetishism that calls the tune in America, not just the ruling elite. For instance his observations from "burning tortillas at midnight":
"It can now be honestly stated that mere goods and services express the citizenry and the American culture in its entirety. Citizenship in a consumer society is consumership. Consumer culture consumes all rival cultures, replacing them with "pop culture," which is simply deeming the marketplace as culture. Hip Hop is a good example. So is the modern cinema, and all of the music and book publishing industry. Corporate industry and its products are not culture, despite all the new definitions of culture bourgeois academia and the marketplace come up with on behalf of the corporations that fund both of them.
Your iPod shall set you free!
Freedom and personal identity exists as freedom to choose identity from among the commodities, and particularly the entertainments, offered. The Mac person as opposed to the Windows person. The Mariah Carey or Rihanna Fenty fan as opposed to the Eric Clapton fan. Each is convinced he or she is different because of their chosen commodity. Yet at the root of this, they all purchased a computer or a CD from a faceless corporation grounded in the toxic wastelands and sweatshops of Asia and elsewhere."
Obama didn't bring about that pathetic and pathological condition, and one suspects that if he demonstrated the slightest revulsion for it, he would be judged unfit for the presidency of the United States of Commodified America. Haven't the foggiest idea what kind of Ghandian ascetic that you would put in the oval office yourself, in the meantime....and just how you'd go about it.
I wonder if it might be helpful to petition the mods into creating a new forum and call it, I dunno, Joe Bageant Central. As prominent as his insight has figured on the board for what seems like ages, one handy point of reference might better serve, instead of having him sprinkled here and there all over the place.
Bageant is a good release from the stern judicial voice found hereabouts, the curled lip, the sagacious-sounding product of the latest MSM handout on google. He shows us an America that some seem afraid to contemplate, and most importantly, does it with humour:
"Ajijic is one of those sunny roosting places south of the horse latitudes preferred by aging Americans who've put away a few bucks, and Canadians whose government still stands behind its national retirement plan, for the time being at least. They come here in winter, from Buffalo, Scranton and Calgary, Ontario and Ohio, to roast aching bones, drink among others who can remember Sonny and Cher's first hit record, and, as is the case particularly with the Canadians, to smoke pot. An American never quite gets over the sight of half a dozen retired middle class seventy year olds in puffy white velcro strap tennis shoes, nonchalantly passing a fat bomber."
Bageant is a good release from the stern judicial voice found hereabouts, the curled lip, the sagacious-sounding product of the latest MSM handout on google. He shows us an America that some seem afraid to contemplate....
But here by the pool, under the splintered pink and gold sunset, I really should not be bitching about Americans. One of them, a middle age fellow drunk on his ass, and insisting that I accept a small edge of hashish because, "I know writersh sneed a little inshpirashion."......And with ancient cobblestones rippling along beneath your feet in the darkness, and the smell of orange blossoms in the night air, you think to yourself, Fuck a bunch of crumbling empires.
I guess. We should all give it a try.
Arriving late to the party, again, but this needs to be said: George, your post at #80 is unacceptable. You can't characterize another poster's words as "fucking game playing. Stop it, you know better.
When one tries to communicate from the heart and finds himself played with...? Any time someone does that they should expect the same, Maysie. Look over the several postings. I'm sure you'll understand and find some more chastisement to go around.

Bless you, you found the last paragraph.
As a (supply) teacher, I do see how well or poorly students learn. One of the biggest indicators of success or failure is a student's socio-economic status. In the board where I teach, most teachers use similar teaching methods. Most schools receive funding based on student enrollment. There are some minor variations for students with exceptional needs. The school board does provide a little extra funding for schools that require extra assistance. These schools may have a high concentration of low SES students or English language learners. That extra money may go toward hiring an extra half-time teacher or educational assistant and providing healthy breakfasts or snacks to students. One good thing in my board is that the best teachers can teach at challenging schools. Yes, teachers do get evaluated. They get evaluated on their teaching ability and methods--not on their students' test scores.
When I look at Obama's initiatives, I can see that he means well and wants the best for America's children. I do see some problems with Obama's initiatives:
Obama wants to extend the school day. He wants teachers teaching more and helping students before and after school. I will let everyone know that for every hour in a classroom a teacher needs to prepare about an hour outside the classroom. By extending the day for teachers, the quality of the lessons will suffer.
Obama wants charter schools to take over in poorly performing areas. Some charter schools may be great; others are no better than slave factories for the teachers. The teachers work long hours for low pay; they burn out after a year or two. If these charter schools were implemented, then the poor students would be taught by first and second year teachers just out of teachers' college. This situation is similar to some Canadian native reserve schools where students are taught by new teacher graduates. The students do not have continuity in the teaching staff. A stable learning community cannot develop.
If I were a teacher in the United States, I would be looking for work in a middle or upper class neighbourhood. If I am going to be evaluated on my students' standardized test scores, I would want to teach in a well-off neighbourhood where the scores are likely to be higher. If other teachers think the same way, then poor students will end up being taught by new graduates and not by experienced teachers. There may possibly be a shortage of teachers serving poor students.

Kerry: Budget impasse a challenge for US diplomacy
February 20, 2013 @ 9:09 am
WASHINGTON (AP) - Secretary of State John Kerry says the greatest challenge to U.S. foreign policy is not emerging China or Middle East instability. It's Congress.
In a speech Wednesday at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, Kerry cited the adage that "we can't be strong in the world unless we are strong at home." He called the budget impasse a threat.
The State Department has said automatic spending cuts would jeopardize $2.6 billion in aid, security assistance and other international programs.
Kerry said legislators need to avoid "senseless cuts."
Otherwise, he said his credibility as a diplomat might be damaged.
Kerry said, "Think about it: It's hard to tell the leadership of any number of countries that they must resolve their economic issues if we don't resolve our own."

Libby Hill HDR
A little bit of HDR playing. I went to Libby Hill with Sooz a few days ago. I saw this in my head, but the dynamic range was way beyond what my camera could handle, so the next logical thing to do was an HDR…or graduated ND filter, BUT I don't have one of those. Anyways, I haven't done a HDR in a long time, and I think this one turned out pretty well. A more realistic HDR feel.

The 2012-2013 Cleveland Cavaliers season has arrived and Cavs tickets are as big as it gets in Cleveland. Get your Cavaliers tickets today and see what Rookie of the Year Kyrie Irving and the rest of the Cavs can do in the Eastern Conference. Don't miss out on seeing the Cleveland Cavaliers battle the best teams in the NBA and get your tickets for Cleveland basketball right now!
Get ready for the Cleveland Cavaliers 2012-2013 season! |
The Cleveland Cavaliers, led by veteran coach Byron Scott and stocked with a talented young lineup, are looking to make some noise in the Eastern Conference and make it back to the NBA playoffs. Last year's Rookie of the Year Kyrie Irving leads the offensive charge and is another dynamic young point guard in a league full of them. While the Central Division has been dominated by the Chicago Bulls in recent seasons, the injury of Derrick Rose in last year's playoffs has created an opening and the Calvaliers are looking to capitalize on the opportunity. Quicken Loans Arena will be packed with Cavs fans this season, so make sure you are there in the stands to root this young talented team on. Ticket Liquidator has a large selection of Cleveland Cavaliers tickets to all the season's biggest games. Kyrie Irving doesn't have to shoulder the offensive burden alone, as the Cavs added former Syracuse standout shooting guard Dion Waiters to the backcourt. Waiters will have plenty of chances to drain jumpers and attack the rim in the Cavs uptempo style. After all, Coach Byron Scott was part of the Showtime Los Angeles Lakers when he played, and has similar designs for this offensive attack led by Irving. In the frontcourt, Tristan Thompson looks to clean up on the boards and provide some scoring from the post, while Anderson Varejao has been living on the boards for years now. Shooting guard C.J. Miles is coming off the bench to start the season, but his ability to score off the dribble and create his own shot should provide a lift off the bench. Small forward Alonzo Gee is getting the starting nod, and should add to the Cavs' attack. With all these young and talented players, the Cavs are looking to turn some heads this season and make their mark on the Eastern Conference playoff chase, so make sure you get your Cleveland Cavaliers tickets and see this team live! Cleveland Coach Byron Scott is satisified with his bigs, and the team is loaded with quick guards. The Cavs won't be backing down from any opponents this year, either in the Eastern or Western Conference. If the opponent brings the ball into the paint, they'll have to contend with Varejao ready to swat the ball away, and Tristan Thompson is ready to use his 6-9 frame to return some shots back to the sender. The sting of LeBron James "Decision" to take his talents to South Beach has lessened slightly over the last two seasons, but it's still debatable whether James or Art Modell is the most hated man in Cleveland. So when the Miami Heat travel to Cleveland to take on the Cavaliers, you can bet the stands will be packed with fans cheering the Cavs on. While the Heat may have the edge at most positions, the Cavs are confident that Kyrie Irving can do some damage against the Miami lineup, so make sure you grab some Cavaliers vs. Heat tickets to see if these Cavaliers can dethrone King James. The point guard matchups in the East will be huge this season, so there are plenty of blockbuster matchups on the Cavaliers 2012-2013 schedule. With the Brooklyn Nets' Deron Williams probably the best PG in the East until D. Rose returns from injury, the Nets vs. Cavaliers matchup will be a must-see affair as D. Will and Kyrie Irving battle. The Boston Celtics also provide a stern test for this young Cavaliers team, and you can bet that Kyrie Irving will be up for a showdown with Rajon Rondo and the C's. The Cavs have their sites set on the top teams in the East and this could be the year they turn the corner so make sure you buy your Cleveland Cavaliers tickets and head out to Quicken Loans Arena to cheer these Cavs on!

I hate to even ask this, I know it comes up from time to time on most of the backup manager threads, but here goes.
Any chance for a "overscan friendly" version? This is the only manager I ever want to use, simply because it is by far the best, but my TV (rear projection HDTV) has a couple inches of overscan that cuts off the hard drive stats and part of the legend when I display it. Would it take very much to move everything in off the edges just a but for those of us with this issue? My choice in managers is somewhat dictated by what displays well with my setup and I know i'm not the only one.

A political newcomer and a political veteran will be joining the Leitchfield City Council, after voters Tuesday returned only four of the six incumbents.
Longtime council members Kelly Stevenson and Leon Shaw fell short in their bids for re-election, finishing eighth and ninth, respectively, in the 12-person race.
As in the May primary election, Margaret Alvey-Fey was the top finisher, receiving 1,038 votes, according to unofficial final totals from the Grayson County Clerk's office. Raymond "Tooty" Cottrell was second with 852 votes, with political newcomer Harold Thomas Miller a close third with 837 votes.
Former council member Jerry Schlosser was fourth, with 786 votes. Incumbents Steven Elder and Billy Dallas finished fifth and sixth, with 773 votes and 758 votes.
Newcomer Margie Decker finished seventh, with 735 votes. Stevenson received 727, and Shaw garnered 618.
Political first-timer Nick Ramsey finished tenth, with 559 votes, followed by Rick Minton with 536 votes and Clayton Miller with 519.
"I'm certainly disappointed," Stevenson said of the results late Tuesday. "I felt like I ran a good, honest race and kept above all the negativity."
He offered his congratulations to the winners, and said he hopes the city continues to progress over the next two years.
Shaw also offered his congratulations to the winners and expressed hope that the city will continue moving forward.
"I just came up short," he said of the results. "It's just one of those things."
He speculated the city's 3 percent restaurant tax, which he voted for, might have played a role in people's votes, but said he wasn't sure.
Schlosser speculated the restaurant tax — which he campaigned against — and "the spending going on at city hall" had a definite role in winning him a seat at the table.
"We're in a tough economy," he said. "We don't need a $5 million swimming pool when people are having a tough time paying their bills."
He said he's standing by his campaign pledge to move to repeal the restaurant tax at his first council meeting. "I didn't say that just to get elected," Schlosser said.
He said the race was "the toughest city council race I can remember, and I was in my 20s the first time I was elected."
Miller could not be reached for comment Tuesday night.
In the Grayson County school board races, incumbent Valeria Hayes-Hicks retained her 1st District seat, defeating challenger Matthew Wiseman 643-556, according to unofficial final results.
In the 2nd District, incumbent Charlotte Gower also was re-elected, with 624 votes to challenger Bill Allen's 551.
Carolyn Thomason, who was running unopposed for the 4th District seat, received 1,254 votes.
In the Caneyville City Commission races, the unopposed incumbents all retained their seats. Janice Minton recived 105 votes, according to unofficial final results, Deborah Embry received 110 votes, Scott Majors received 98 votes, and Connie Gootee received 104.
Clarkson's city commissioners were also running unopposed and retained their seats. Scotty Gore received 148 votes, according to unofficial final results, while Keith Higdon received 151. Kay Gibson received the most votes, 162, and Bob Vincent received 147.
Grayson County Clerk Sherry Weedman said the turnout was higher than the 43 percent she'd predicted. In all, 9,442 of the county's 17,634 registered voters went to the polls, for a turnout of almost 54 percent.
Stacie Blain, who was running unopposed for Grayson County Circuit Clerk, received 5,497 votes, according to unofficial final totals.
State and national races were mostly still up for grabs Tuesday evening, although some had been called.
Incumbent C.B. Embry Jr., who was running unopposed for the state House's 17th District seat, had received 13,077 votes, according to unofficial final results from the Kentucky Secretary of State's website. With five out of six counties reporting, state Sen. Carroll Gibson, who was running unopposed in his bid to return to the 5th District seat, had 29,233 votes.
David M. Williams, who was running unopposed for Commonwealth Attorney in the 46th Judicial Circuit, received 20,095 votes, according to unofficial final results from the Secretary of State's website.
With 107 of 120 counties reporting, the Constitutional amendment on hunting rights was stalking victory with 1,160,646 "yes" votes - 84 percent, according to unofficial final results.
In the 2nd Congressional District race, with 17 of 21 counties reporting, incumbent Brett Guthrie was leading with 120,045 votes, or about 64 percent. Democrat challenger David Lynn Williams had 59,586 votes, or about 32 percent. Independent candidate Andrew Beacham and Libertarian candidate Craig Astor each had about 2 percent of the vote, with 4,320 and 3,419 ballots respectively.
At about 9:45 p.m. ABC News was projecting Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney was leading in the popular vote, with 33.1 million compared to Barack Obama's 31.6 million votes. Obama, however, had the electoral vote edge with 173 to Romney's 163. A candidate needs 270 electoral votes to win the presidency.
In Kentucky, with 107 of 120 counties reporting, Romeny had 60 percent of the vote - 975,115 - to Obama's 38 percent, or 612,621 votes. The Green, Independent and Libertarian candidates each had less than 1 percent of the statewide vote.
In Grayson County, Romney captured 69 percent of the ballots, with 6,404 votes, according to unofficial final totals. Obama received 2,744 votes, or about 30 percent.

Rugby chief rules out quick return for Sir Clive Woodward
8:48am Tuesday 9th October 2012 in Southampton
Rugby Football Union chief executive Ian Ritchie has ruled out an imminent return to Twickenham for former Saints coach Sir Clive Woodward.
England's 2003 World Cup-winning coach recently left his position as the British Olympic Association's director of sport following London 2012.
Ritchie is anxious to draw on the expertise of those involved in the Olympics but he insisted: "We don't have any vacancies.
"I respect totally what Clive did in rugby and the Olympics, but I am not going to get into hypotheticals.
"I am very happy with the way things are progressing at the moment."
The RFU are currently advertising for a head of athletic performance to work with the England team, although the job description would only cover part of Woodward's expertise.
The very fact Ritchie is in office at Twickenham is due to last year's managerial meltdown, which was sparked by a disagreement over whether Woodward should return to the RFU.
At the time, Woodward – who spent a controversial year at St Mary's working on sports science after being brought in by ex-chairman Rupert Lowe - was in the frame to become England's performance director, a role that is effectively now part of Rob Andrew's brief as professional rugby director.
Ritchie not only denied that Andrew's position is under threat from the review that is being conducted into the RFU's performance department but backed his contribution to the union.
The review was proposed following England's disappointing 2011 World Cup campaign and is being conducted by Peter Keen, the former UK Sport performance director, and Sir Ian McGeechan.
"Is this a shorthand for 'what does it mean for Rob Andrew?' Certainly not," Ritchie said. "Rob has been involved in this process and supportive of it. He has great expertise.
"We should be aiming in the next three years to be giving the best possible support to the England players and the England team at all the age levels and that is fundamentally what the review is about."

Maybe he could become the Saints defensive coach with Adkins?
The article was about The English Rugby Board considering Woodward for England Rugby post nothing to do with Saints so exactly how's this a Football thread?
I was joking about going to Saints but one idea he had was a great one & one we are using for the 2015 Rugby World Cup.
We are allowing a two tier World Cup with the top teams to play for the real cup & the emerging countries to play in a junior (World) Cup with the winner getting a pass into the World Cup next time so helping to bring on the emerging countries.
That's one of the reasons St Mary's is being looked at

Makenzie Blalock, Vanessa Williams and Shelby Jones, were recipients of the Howard Norrell, Memorial Scholarship.
CLUB Y was originally known as the Calhoun Optimists Club, but changed their vision to keep money for the youth in local and in the county. The scholarship is named after a late member of the club, for his involvement with foster children.
At the clubs weekly lunch meeting, Blalock, Williams and Jones were honored with the scholarships and free lunch with family members at the Atlanta Gate Restaurant in Calhoun.
According to the Chairman of the Scholarship Committee for CLUB Y, Andy Denton, the scholarships are not like other scholarships, and allow students to deal with costs outside of attending college.
"There are the cars and insurance having to get the supplies, you have to buy the off size sheets for the dorm beds, we simply write a check to you," said Denton, who says he can relate by having two of his own children currently in college.
Williams is expecting to attend Georgia Tech's biology program and take a pre-med route. Williams thanked the members of the club for the opportunity.
Jones will attend Dalton State to pursue a nursing degree and says he hopes to work at a local hospital.
Blalock will attend the University of Georgia to pursue a veterinarian degree and plans to cheer for the bulldogs, as a member of a 2010 and 2011 state championship cheerleading team.
All three awardees were scholarship recipients for more than one scholarship and are all happy to have the help to curb the high costs of college.
CLUB Y, a club of between 25 and 30 members, helps youth in the Calhoun and Gordon County community, and has been awarding the Howard Norrell, Memorial Scholarship since 1988, according to CLUB Y President Roger Rigner, who says CLUB Y was started to keep money in the county to help local youth.

During Cave Spring Elementary School's Ice Cream Social, parents and guests will have an opportunity to earn a $10 contribution for the school from the Chrysler brand by taking a test drive in the 2012 Chrysler Town & Country. Everyone is invited to join the fun. Any licensed driver, age 18 or older, may drive and earn a $10 donation for Cave Spring Elementary School. There is no limit to the number of drives or Chrysler's contribution.
Bob Williams Dodge Chrysler Plymouth will provide minivans and insurance for the event, and volunteers from the dealership will be on hand to help out with the fundraising test drives.
"The Chrysler brand is dedicated to supporting the enrichment of our schools, and with the assistance of our local dealerships, the Drive for the Kids program has helped to raise funds for local schools across the country," said Al Garner, Southeast Business Center representative.
"The Chrysler Town & Country minivan is the perfect family hauler and carries the torch for ultimate versatility, standard luxury and convenience with unsurpassed quality, comfort and value."
In 1993, Chrysler introduced Drive for the Kids and became the first automotive manufacturer to reach out in direct support of local schools. Since then Chrysler dealers have worked with parents and educators in communities across the nation, and Chrysler has contributed more than $4 million to schools located in communities where Chrysler and its dealers do business.
