As to the lot, the Committee called on the Randall Company a day or so after our last meeting, and on going into the matter curefully, it was discovered that a mistake was . made . It seems they were going to sell us a lot on Commercial Street and Mount Avenue, opposite Foreman ' s Lumber Yard, and not the plot opposite the Synagogue voted on at ·our last meeting. So the Building Committee decided ~o let the matter rest for a while, as they did not think it would be a suitable place for our building to be located .

At our last meeting, the Post vote• to raffle off a light six Studebaker and not a super six, and he is not positive that Box can get a light six car.

The trip to Albany last January has borne fruit. He has word from Col. Wickersham that the State Hospitalization Committee has approved the reconstruction program, and they will now go ahead with it. The proposition has already been forwarded by the Veterans Bureau to Washington for approval, which means the Legion will endorse that in their program for the year .. and it looks very favorable in going through. ..

The work will be divided between three • organizations, the American Legion, American March 16th, 1923 (continued). ~ Red Cross and the Knights of Columbus. These ~ three organizations at the present time are doin@ a great deal of work, but are not QUite familiar with what the other is doing, and it is planned e to divide the work so that each one will know exactly what the other is doing and there will be no duplication. Will try to get the Red Cross to do something else besides obtaining cigarettes, leaving that to the Legion. As heretofore, local organizations will make their shipments direct to Kings Park and receive acknowledgments direct, and the Legion will receive no personal credit therefrom. The local Council of Knights of Columbus here has appointed a Welfare Officer here, who will assist 1~ . Young in establishing liaison between the Knights of Columbus and the Legion.

Comments about Black Diamond Spot Headlamp:
I have been fairly quiet about reviews until I tried out my new Black Diamond Spot headlamp last week. My old headlamp is also a Black Diamond, but it is at least 4 years old. Oh, my what enormous improvements they have made. With only 3 AAA batteries the thing gives off 90 lumens and blasts a light for over 200 feet. They claim that the batteries will last for 250 hours. There are two major settings, spot and wide angle, but if you hold the button it will dim to whatever brightness you desire. Perfect for the long trip where you want the control over battery life. On our recent run, no one wanted to go in front of me because I was casting such a bright light. At a little over 30 bucks, it is worth tossing your old lamp to the Teen Challenge or some homeless guy left in the dark.

yuck is a command line option parser for C that works on a minimal set of dependencies - only a C compiler and the m4 macro processor are required. It supports all the standard use cases: GNU-style long options (--option), condensable short options (-xab for -x -a -b), and optional arguments to long and short options (--foo[=BAR]), multiple occurrence of options (-vvv). Most importantly, it does not depend on libc's getopt() nor getopt_long().
AntiJOP is an anti-malware solution that recodes assembly language to remove JOP attack gadgets. JOP attacks on x86 often hinge on the availability of 0xFF bytes in preexisting code, which can be co-opted to serve as register-indirect call instructions. AntiJOP removes instances of 0xFF bytes that may exist, for example, in immediate values, MOD/RM bytes, etc.
The Libxmp Core Mod Player, or Coremod for short, is a small, lightweight subset of Libxmp with full API compatibility released under a permissive license. Coremod supports the four main module formats (MOD, XM, S3M, and IT), and is intended for use in games and other applications where extensive format support or file decompression are not required.
NimBorg is a library for accessing Lua and Python libraries from within Nimrod code. It wraps the C API of these languages with macros which make the code far more readable than the low-level API, and also automatically handles the memory management interface of these languages so that objects aren't deallocated as long as they're accessible from your Nimrod code.

Our cabin crew agencies are continually holding training courses throughout Europe.
What does the training involve?
The Boeing 737-800 Cabin Crew Initial Training Course is an intensive six week training course covering all aspects of the job from passenger safety to customer services. With successful completion of this course you will receive your wings and be qualified to work on board Ryanair aircraft.
As the training is conducted by a third party provider there is a fee - the cost can be deducted from your salary during your first 12 months. Full details will be provided at the recruitment days.
Due to Ryanair's phenomenal growth to date and with the arrival of 74 new aircraft over the next 2 years, there are ample positions available to recruit candidates from students who successfully complete the training course.
Where will I be working?
We are principally recruiting for bases in the following countries
How much will I make?
After successfully completing the training course crew receives a payment for every flight taken as well as sales bonus for onboard sales. You can typically expect to earn approximately £900-£1,100/€1,100-€1,400 per month after tax in your first year
As a full time crew you will also receive a New Joiners Allowance which is £1,000/€1,200 over your first 6 months.
After 12 Months: an EXTRA £250/€325 annual allowance for uniforms, ID's and Medicals
After 6 months you may be eligible for a position directly employed with Ryanair and after 12 months you may be eligible for promotion to a Customer Service Supervisor.
A Customer Service Supervisor promotion would involve:
What is the job like?
The best people to answer this are the crew themselves and they will usually be available at each recruitment day to chat with you. It is hard work but very rewarding, you will get to meet different people every day and no two days will ever be the same.
Here is what some of our current crew members have to say;
My name is Aiste, I am from Lithuania. I have been working for Ryanair in Dublin since 2006. After my first year I was promoted to the position of Cabin Services Supervisor. I love to be a part of the international company with its different nationalities and cultural diversities. Every day brings me a new story, and if the story doesn't come to me, I can always use our staff travel benefits and take a trip to one of our many other destinations around Europe.

An antioxidant that protects eye tissue, lutein is a carotenoid naturally found in the eye's macula. Leafy greens like kale, collard greens and romaine lettuce as well as leeks and egg yolks are whole food sources of lutein. Along with delivering free radical defense to the macula, lutein has also been shown to guard against the vision decline association with age. It's often found in combination with zeaxanthin, another antioxidant for vision health. Swanson Ultra Lutein delivers 20 mg lutein plus 1 mg zeaxanthin in 120 softgel or 60 softgel bottles. Swanson Premium Lutein offers terrific eye health support at the most affordable prices.

Look after your jeans by remembering these golden rules:
- Always turn jeans inside-out before washing
- Wash in cold water
- Never use bleach and do not soak
- Always dry away from direct sunlight
- We recommend using Denim Wash
When washing new jeans for the first time, always wash them on their own as excess dye may bleed onto other garments.

Comment I found these slightly large to size so you may want to size down. Lovely colour and super flattering - I may have also bought in the red and white as loved them so much.
