Hawaii- Kona on the Big Island
On the Big Island of Hawaii, Let's meet the geckos, mongeese and centipedes. Presumably this island was named Hawaii when James Cook landed here, but as the main centre soon moved to Maui for the whaling, and then later and presently to Honolulu on the island of Oahu, the fact that most people say they are holidaying in Hawaii but never set foot …
Restful Day
... several spinner dolphins that weren't too far from shore. Walked along the sea wall to our favorite shaved ice place and imagined what the area will look like in a couple weeks when the Ironman Triathlon is in full swing. We saw a number of (obvious) triathletes getting familiar with the area. Got my obligatory henna tattoo and finally ...
Hawaii, the Big Island
... feeding us various local fruits and flowers at each stop, picked fresh as we moved around the privately owned farm, including apple bananas, guava, other sweeter & smaller guava-type fruit, the flowers of a particular ginger plant (smelt like honeysuckle with very sweet nectar) and a pasture flowering grass that had sweet stems, yellow daisy type flowers. This interaction also gave us the chance to learn that the mongoose we saw running across various ...
Day One: St. Louis to Los Angeles
... President or Jackie O. Very cool. You don't get to do that too much these days. We quickly found our baggage, got our car from Enterprise (a Hundai Elantra) and made our way to the White Sands condo. FYI, we felt Enterprise was very fussy. Typically, you get through your paperwork, are tossed a set of keys and off you go. No, we had to have a young snip of a girl go through everything nick and scrap on the car with us, everything except how to drive ...

... of the ceiling is just hanging posing a safety threat and therefore the park has closed off the dark part of the lava tube. That's too bad as it would have been neat. Rather than walking the trail back to the car, we retraced our steps and went back through the tube. We decided we would enjoy it as long as we could with no people. We finally met up with a few other people as we reached the end. We walked the same trail out to the car taking pictures ...

Paradise Getaway
We found Unit #177 way beyond our expectations. The ocean front location was private, provided unbelievably beautiful sunsets, and the furnishings and kitchen amenities were fabulous. We were lucky to see the new window coverings installed, and loved them too! It was also great to be away from the downtown busy streets.
Excellent accomodations
We found the condominium to be well layed out, comfortable, and well appointed. The furniture & decorations are first class and we quickly felt at home. The location was far enough away from the hustle/bustle of downtown but close enough to restaurants, site-seeing, etc. We would have liked a better beach within walking distance, but were pleased to have a large Hawksbill turtle sun himself on the black sand one day. Overall - well above average.
Love the Complex and location but #182
This is a beautiful complex, well manicured grounds, nice pool & tennis courts and good location. However, I wouldn't rent unit #182 again, I'd look for another owner's unit.
Exceed your expections with Townhome #2
Great communication with townhome owners, who have a beatifully decorated and well-kept unit. Pictures don't do the interior justice. They've thought of all your needs in advance - they even provide their own 'guidebook' for the area.
Away from hustle & bustle of Kona town, but convenient to a great shopping area. Enjoy the ocean from porch or master bed. We had the fun of watching sea turtles hauling themselves out for a rest on the beach in front of the unit.
If we return to Kona - we're hoping this place is available.
A Steal Of A Deal on The Perfect Ocean-Front Big Island Condo
We stayed in unit #2 and couldn't have been happier about it. This is a beautifully designed and tastefully furnished ocean front unit, very comfortable, understated island feel with the tile floors and teak furnishings, ocean front lanai, ocean front master bedroom, the ocean takes central spot at this great 2-story condo, always present, visible and audible, the sound of the breaking waves at bedtime was hypnotizing and lulled us to sleep every night. We liked staying south of the crowded Kona resort area in Keauhou, yet close enough to get to town for whatever we needed. I am a travel agent by profession and I know a deal when I see one. This is an extraordinary value. For what you get for the quite reasonably low price the value is unbeatable. Why spend as much or more for a mountain/garden/pool view when this is available with the shoreline mere yards away and the sun setting into the Pacific right there from your private lanai?
Fantastic! Unit 178!
Beautiful decorating, unbelievable value. Palm trees, the sound of the waves...this is Hawaii! Forget the fancy 5 star hotels. Here you are getting every amenity you could dream of. There's parking right outside the condo. The tennis courts and pool are directly (1/2 minute) across from the condo. There's a great lanai for sipping cocktails and watching the most magical of magical sunsets! The master bedroom is so romantic that you may think you are in Nirvana! Honeymooners and anyone looking for ROMANCE have just found the perfect place. Everything was spotless, completely renovated this past April by the owner, a designer from NYC. Everyone is also really nice. The contact people are very helpful and the owners really care about this condo. It has that designer look...but really comfortable and relaxing. This is a #1 honeymoon or anniversary destination. We know, as we just returned and can't wait to go back to celebrate next year. We've reserved unit 178 already. What a refreshing treat.
Loved Unit 177 Townhouse Cottage on the Ocean's Edge
We stayed with Jim - Aloha Condos Hawaii - in their beutifully romantic Oceanfront unit 177 at the Keauhou Kona Surf And Racquet Club Resort. It was so very relaxing hearing the waves at night and watching sunset from your own private patio. There is a blow hole just outside of the unit which you can watch spout when the waves are up a bit. We also saw Spinner dolphins while sitting on the lanai having our morning coffee and breakfast --- awesome. The unit has been completely remodeled with wonderful Hawaiian decor and had all of the amenities to make our vacation on the Big Island absolutely perfect. While the unit doesn't have AC, we were surprised at how cool the unit was -- the ceiling fans and the super exhaust fan really do work! When you look out the 2nd floor windows toward the ocean, you think you are on a boat -- so peaceful -- we didn't want to leave and look forward to returning every year! A perfect getaway, yet very convienantly located to snorkeling, shopping, restaurants and other activities.
Fabulous decor, gorgeous sunsets
Kailua-Kona: Keauhou Kona Surf And Racquet Club Resort: Magnificent Townhouse, Unit 178, completely renovated and designed by NYC interior designer in 2004. The townhouse sparkles with all new furniture, tile, and appliances. The minute you walk in you are struck by the gorgeous sunset and ocean views. If you were any closer to the ocean, you would have to be in a boat! Crashing waves add to the drama of the setting. For honeymooners, anniversary celebrations, or anyone interested in romance, you can't help but feel romantic staying in the master bedroom draped in white mosquito netting that sets the tone for the tropics! We walked to the wonderful beach and had a great snorkeling experience. The location is fabulous. A two minute drive took us to the mall where there are movies, and great Japanese and Thai restaurants. There's no mistaking where you are, the ambiance of Hawaii surrounds you. The décor is fabulous in unit 178. We can't wait to come back!
A dream come true!
Wow! Unit 178 is a dream come true. You literally sit on the ocean. We immediately sat on the lanai, opened a bottle of wine and unwound from our flight to the Big Island. Three hours later we were still sitting mesmerized by the view of the ocean and waves. The condo is just really beautiful. Everything is new. The tiles in the bathrooms are spectacular. All the details are perfect. The value you get for your money is unbelievable. Everything is immaculate and done with great care. Beautiful tropical fans add charm and create great breezes throughout. There are wonderful colorful framed posters that depict old Hawaii.
Kona Rarity-Beautiful Townhome on Beautiful Beach
As soon as you cross the welcome mat into the foyer of Keauhou Surf and Racquet Club Townhouse # 2 on the beach, you know you have entered a special haven. The beautiful tiling, sectional couch, teak furniture, and island art blend perfectly with the ocean or tropical views from every room window to complete the journey to the Big Island. We enthusiastically enjoyed the master bedroom with its king size scrolled posted bed. The bed itself is irresistible but then to be able to see from it the ocean and beach out the large window is an unbelievable sensual experience. In addition, the hosts have made every effort to provide their guests with the amenities they will need and more. My wife especially appreciated the small gas barbecue that I could use, so she could sip a drink on the comfortable lanai lounge and meditate to the soft sounds of the surf.

Has Technology Changed Organizing? A Conversation with Movement Scholar Marshall Ganz
Stay tuned for an understatement: the events in North Africa this Spring were surprising.
Entrenched heads of state with tight, repressive grips on power were ousted not by opposition groups or sectarian interests but by people. It was, in the formulation of organizing and social movement scholar Marshall Ganz, a David versus Goliath moment.
In Ganz' book, "Why David Sometimes Wins," he describes how the battle between two biblical characters, the battle-ready Goliath and the poorly equipped David, yielded an unexpected outcome - David's victory - because David approached the situation from a different perspective and drew from a non-traditional toolbox. Goliath expected him to draw a sword but, instead, he chose a slingshot. He hit Goliath in the forehead with a stone and knocked him out.
The basic tenets of Ganz' scholarship on organizing are borne out in the recent examples of Egypt and Tunisia: an outside-the-box-perspective, a new toolbox and a unifying public narrative to hold people together. They're all there. I wanted to know, though, if Ganz thought the new ways that Arab Spring protesters have harnessed new media will influence future scholarship on movement building and organizing. Has it taught us anything new? Here are some of his thoughts.
Has your thinking on the training of social movement organizing changed at all based on what you've we've seen happen this spring?
I mean it's classic social movement organizing. Social movements are at the intersection of intentionality and opportunity, intentionality and contingency, and that's how it works.
It's clear that there were people working, building infrastructure and looking for opportunity and all that. And then Ben Ali takes off out of Tunis and all of a sudden there's a spark, and the Police Day demonstration [in Egypt] turns into something quite different.
It's like you're carrying around this little balloon and all of a sudden it's full of air and you're like "Oh my God, this is going to carry me into the sky. My god! Better see where I am!" That's how it's always happened.
In 1848, every country in Europe had a revolution. And they happened very quickly one upon the other. People were riding on horses with broadsides to the next town. It's not like social contagion is a brand new thing. And I'm not saying that to minimize the significance of the new things, but just to put them into context to appreciate what they enable us to do and what they do not.
I think new media facilitates the process enormously. To me it's more: "how does it enhance, how does it create new possibilities." There was this whole period where new media seemed to have agency. People would say "the internet does". That's not it. It's a set of tools and a medium of communication that is incredibly useful to skilled people who want to use it skillfully and purposefully. I think we're learning more about that every day.
21st century revolutions have yielded big crowds but few leaders with the interest or capacity necessary to build on success and prevent a backslide. I wonder if you think there's an interaction between that trend and the new tools that people are using to mobilize these revolutions?
What you just described could have described the first two years of the French Revolution. People mobilize, and the opposition collapses, and it's like "oh my God, what do we do now? Who's really in charge?" The person with the most radical program usually has a big advantage because maybe they're more militant, but then there's the pushback and there's all this confusion and then you wind up with Napoleon. This is again not to minimize the ways in which it is different. How can I put it? The internet can create a sort of effervescence, like "Woah, we didn't have to do two years of house meetings to get all these people to show up."
On the other hand, when you read the history of these other social movements and revolutions there are always people are working at it forever and then there are these tipping point moments where people seem to come out of nowhere and everybody's blown away. Then everyone's in confusion because they don't know how to handle it. I think you're pointing to a really crucial challenge. I mean, now in Egypt, how do you translate mobilization into organization?
It's hard. In this country, if we didn't have social movements we would never have had any change in the United States, because our electoral system is so sclerotic. In other words, it was designed by people afraid of majoritarian governance, because they needed to preserve slavery and hold on to all that stuff, so government is so fragmented here. Now, in a parliamentary system, you get somebody in power and they can actually do some stuff, like we see in Britain, whether coming from one side or another. I think you really need to look at what the institutional context is to answer those kinds of questions. You really have to understand the nature of the system being designed and what the cultural and social instructions are that are being drawn upon to design it.
You teach a "snowflake model" of leadership, with one person in the middle, who is connected to different people around them who are, in turn, connected to more people around them. Has this model evolved at all considering the avowedly leaderless nature of this year's revolutions, can we still expect (or hope) to find the one person in the middle?
What we have found is that it's important to distinguish leadership as position from leadership as practice. Because people hear "leadership" and they think "authority," and so they think traditional authority structures. And we were sort of saying "well no, we're approaching leadership as a practice, not leadership as a position, and as consisting of these skills, these five practices that we teach." It's about accepting responsibility for enabling others to achieve purpose under conditions of uncertainty, that's our little mantra.
Now, if a person is leading a campaign, if it's a leadership team, which I think is really great to lead a campaign - somebody's still got to coordinate that team. Which doesn't mean that they're the charismatic leader-boss-dominator-exploiter. It means that the buck stops with them for a particular piece of leadership work that has to be done. I just haven't found any other way.
I put them in the center of the snowflake because it's sort of imagined as a team. My role may be strategy and somebody else's role may be storytelling and somebody else's role may be money and fundraising. But somebody's role has got to be seeing to the whole.
I think crafting forms of collaborative leadership and authority are really important. But we also have to be realistic about them. My generation went through a whole thing of being so mad with structure that it just said "all structure oppresses", so then it all became structurelessness, and that was chaos. So it's figuring out how to craft this interdependence of individual and collective, and that's where I think the action is.
What I've seen in the Arab world is that the traditional leadership structures are extraordinarily unitary and top-down, and so coming up with a snowflake model is quite novel.

Finally we were able to pick a handful of figs from our little trees/saplings. They aren't perfect, but they taste luscious with a few slices of prosciutto. It's an elegant way to end the week. Have a lovely couple of days off, dear friends.
A mushroom risotto, chock full of local chanterelles and parmigiano-reggiano, for lunch today. Buon appetito!
It looked cloudy and cold through the window when we had a minute to glance outside. So we made kabocha squash and scallion pancakes dressed with butter and maple syrup, and rashers of crisp local hickory-smoked bacon for lunch today. Believe it or not, these hotcakes are light as feathers, but full of rich fall flavors. When we took an after-lunch-walk (instead of a nap), turns out it is a positively balmy 75 degrees!
Well, as is always the case, you can look at things two ways…we had a hankering for a lovely block of KeriGold Irish butter that was in our fridge or, we bought the last twelve ears of corn of the season at our local farm stand and we're rolling them on a block of KeriGold. Along with glasses of cold beer it seems like a great lunch and now we are smiling big corny smiles. We're running out for toothpicks.
The garden is still pumping it out. This morning we picked long swollen string beans and fat soft tomatoes. We cooked the vegetables separately in heavy pots until the tomatoes melted into their flavorful juices and the spoon tender beans burst opened to reveal their lavender jewels. We ladled everything into soup plates then added a drizzle of good olive oil, some minced shallots, and a sprinkle of Maldon salt—a damn fine lunch.
Day five of "One Bird Feeds Two Women for Five Days". So we threw the old bird into a pot with lots of sliced fresh ginger, some celery hearts, kaffir lime leaves, an onion, a few black peppercorns, and about 6 cups of water. It gently bubbled away on the back of the stove for a couple of hours. The resulting broth was the chicken's swan song and what a beautiful aria it was. We strained it and added shiitake mushroom caps, silky tofu, fresh greens, rice noodles, cilantro, and a good squeeze of lime—are you thinking Stone Soup? Have a lovely weekend, dear friends.
Day four of "One Bird Feeds Two Women for Five Days". We're down to one chicken breast to split between us. Pas de problem. We sliced the breast into four paillards, dusted them in flour, then pan-fried them in butter and olive oil. We served them with a lemony caper pan-sauce and a warm chanterelle, lemon, and parsley salad. One breast could've served four, but we were feeling somewhat gluttonous today. Pardon our piggishness.
Day three of "One Bird Feeds Two Women for Five Days". The woods have been too dry to gather chanterelles, but yesterday we were blessed with a good soaking rain. This morning dawned clear and beautiful, so we headed into the woods and managed to find a handful of golden chanterelles. We tossed them into the pot with our two chicken thighs, along with some peeled summer tomatoes, and thyme snipped from the balcony. When the chicken was fork-tender, we napped the braised thighs with heavy cream—chicken cacciatore (for those mushrooms we "caught").
Day two of "One Bird Feeds Two Women for Five Days". On this warm stormy afternoon, we are having an indoor picnic of fried pimenton-spiced chicken legs and wings with pickled onions and bread & butter pickles—crisp and crunchy meets sweet and sour.
For Monday, we poached one of the breasts, then slathered it with mayonnaise, and served it with sliced late-summer tomatoes and toasted olive bread that we rubbed with garlic and drizzled with olive oil. We snipped chives and parsley from the window box to garnish this lovely afternoon lunch.
This is a great big beautiful chicken that we are going to cook all week. One bird feeds two people for five days. Let the games begin.
Look what we hauled in from the canal this morning! Just kidding. It's a lovely plat de fruits de mer for our Friday lunch. We've thrown caution to the wind and opened a bottle of dead-cold Sancerre to sip as we slurp. Have a wild weekend dear friends.
We found an ambercup squash this morning at the farm stand down at the end of town. We roasted it along with some plum tomatoes from the garden, and a few rashers of smoky bacon. We tossed the chunky "sauce" with some al dente ricciarelle, and lots of chopped fresh parsley. We each had a tiny glass of the last splash of our summer rosé with our pasta. Now we are both ready for a nap.
It's instant cassoulet for lunch today: 2 cans cannellini beans, 2 D'Artagnan confit duck legs, some good homemade chicken stock, and a few cloves of garlic.

This delightful and comfortable, private, bluff-front Kauai beach home, on 1.5 North Shore view acres, is perfect for honeymoon couples, small families, friends, or those renewing their vows or just enjoying some much-deserved rest and relaxation. Conveniently and centrally located on Kauai's magnificent North Shore -- near a myriad of the world's finest beaches -- Hale Kai Kalani ('House of the Heavenly Sea') is a fantastic vacation home destination. There is food and gift shopping, golfing, and wonderful restaurants nearby, as well as a host of activities for great fun. If some party members prefer to stay home one day, there is the hot tub, entertainment center, and enchanting views to enjoy. Testimonials abound: 'We had a fantastic time in this house and on the island of Kauai. We spent the ten days of our honeymoon relaxing in this beautiful house and exploring this lovely island. I must say the photos on the internet do not do it justice, and the tandem kayak was a bonus'
Hale Kai Kalani is comfortably, tastefully furnished, island style, with soft cotton sheets in the bedrooms, tiled bathrooms, and a full-on entertainment center with cable TV, DVD, and CD stereo. For those who cannot escape fully, we offer wireless broadband internet access. Furniture and furnishings are oriental and island-style, with antiques and original art. The sunken hot tub is the perfect relaxer. The cottage even comes with a big aluminum canoe -- complete with paddles, life preservers, and a car roof rack. It is perfect for jungle river adventures on Kauai's numerous waterways. It's fun and easy, even if you have never canoed before! For those interested in preparing meals, there is a fully equipped tiled kitchen. For convenience sake, there is a washer and dryer, as well as a hot and cold outdoor shower for washing the sand and salt off when returning from Kahili-Quarry Beach, which is just down the road, or from one of the myriad of other nearby world-class beaches.
Consistent trade breezes generally keep you cool and refreshed. But, to be on the safe side, we have installed ceiling fans in both bedrooms, the living room, the kitchen, even on the lanai! Once again, there are a myriad of world-class Kauai North Shore beaches close nearby. Kahili Quarry Beach is within walking distance, Kalihiwai Beach and the trailhead to Secret Beach are just six to seven minutes away. When looking at a map of Kauai, use the Kilauea Lighthouse as a locater - it is the northernmost point on the island, and Hale Kai Kalani is about one mile to the east-southeast. The location is convenient -- close to restaurants, bakeries, four farmer's markets each week, and fun shopping. It is an easy drive further west to Princeville (10 minutes) or Hanalei (15 minutes) yet not far the other direction to the East and South sides and to Waimea Canyon on the West side.
Hale Kai Kalani at 4230 Wailapa Road, Kilauea, Hi. 96754 is a great place to have fun, but it is not a 'party house'. Vehicles must park on site; no on-street parking is allowed. Elevated noise activities or amplified music is not permitted after 10 PM. County of Kauai NCU # 4312-P and Special permit SP-2012-21
Kauai's North Shore can be seen in these movies : South Pacific, Jurassic Park, 6 Days/7 Nights, Flight of the Intruder, Outbreak, The Decendants. Why? Because the physical beauty of the place is awesome! The world's most beautiful collection of beaches in a small geographical area, the famous Na Pali coast and trail, verdant mountain backdrop, sparkling waterfalls, rich blue and white daytime skies, clear star-filled night skies, and RAINBOWS like you have never seen! Hale Kai Kalani is perfectly located in the middle of Kauai's magical North Shore...right up the road from Kahili Quarry Beach, 5 minutes from Kilauea town and the famous Kilauea Lighthouse, 10 minutes from Princeville, 15 minutes from Hanalei, 25 minutes from Kapaa, and 45 minutes from Lihue Airport. We encourage guests to enjoy at least a few of the dozen nearby world class beaches, all within 15 minutes drive time. Interesting art galleries, live music, and great shopping are nearby...
Other Activities: Boating, hiking, sightseeing, helicopter flight seeing, kayaking, bodysurfing, boogie boarding, beachcombing, photography, yoga, massage, ziplining.
Golf: Golf is huge on Kauai. There are 45 holes in nearby Princeville, including the world famous Prince Course, the #1 golf course in the Hawaiian Islands! Scattered around Kauai there 10 courses in all price ranges, from Kukuiolono to the County of Kauai's Wailua Golf Course and Poipu Bay, home of the Grand Slam of Golf. Come in November and watch the pros do their thing!

6 Apr 1961 to 10 Apr 1961
Gary Player survived a trip to the greenside bunker on No. 18 on the tournament's final hole. Arnold Palmer didn't.
Player and Palmer both hit into the greenside bunker on the 18th hole of the final round. Palmer was going for his third win at The Masters, and Player for his first. Player got up-and-down for a par, but Palmer double-bogied for a six and fell one stroke behind.
That exchange gave Player the win at the 1961 Masters, and made the South African the first international golfer to win The Masters.

Just because something is easy to make, does not mean it can't look elegant.
Case(s) in point:
"Recipe" One.
First, this is a picture of a Peppermint Brownie "Recipe" that I made a year ago. Yes, I used boxed brownie mix. But I baked a crust of peppermint sticks (from real candy canes, crushed into pieces) onto the top, and suddenly they look interesting. And tasted even better, of course!
[2]"Recipe" Two.
Buy a bundt cake pan. Below is *literally* nothing more than regular yellow cake from a box, and look how beautiful it is? I bought a bundt cake pan, and a cupcake pan, both from Williams Sonoma, for about $10 each on sale. That $10 has saved me SO much hassle in
prepping for parties. Cupcakes are great, but rose-shaped cupcakes? Suddenly you have something beautiful to serve for no added effort.

A bonded title is a process used in Texas to provide title to vehicles when the proper evidence of ownership is not available. The bonded title law was past by the Texas Legislature in the late 1980's to provide an alternative to a Tax Collector Hearing to secure a Texas title for Texas residents. Many counties in the state no longer hold hearings.
2. Who can apply for a Bonded Title?This question is asked frequently when someone has purchased a vehicle but did not receive a title. The owner shown on the title record must request a certified copy of a title. If a lien holder is shown the registered owner may secure a certified copy of the title by providing a release of lien from the lien holder.
5. What if there is dispute over the ownership of the vehicle?When a bonded title is issued a "Bonded" notation is shown on the title record for 3 years. If during that time someone claims an interest in the vehicle they can take the new owner to court and if judgement is issued by that court the Bonding company pays the judgement and the new owner must reimburse the Bonding company the amount paid.
6. What if there is a recorded lien on the title?If there is a lien holder shown on the Texas title or out of state title we must verify the lien has been released. Most of the time we are able to obtain a release for you if the lien has been paid.
7. Can I sell the vehicle on the bonded title?Yes, the bonded title is a negotiable Texas title.
8. Does the vehicle have to be operable?No, in cases of old vehicles it is best to obtain the bonded title before the vehicle is restored to save on the cost of the Bond. Application to obtain plates can be done later when restoration has been completed.
9. How is the Bond Premium determined? The value of a late-model vehicle is determined either through the Presumptive Value, the N.A.D.A. book value or an appraisal. The value of a vehicle twenty-five or more years old is either $4,000 or the amount on the Bill of Sale, whichever is larger.
The bond amount is one and a half times the value of the vehicle. The bond premium is $15 per $1000 of the bond amount. A minimum charge for any bond is $100.
Example: My vehicle's value is $5000. My bond will be $7500 and my bond premium will be $112.50.
No. Abandoned vehicles must be disposed of through law enforcement if they are operable. If not operable Form VTR71-2 must be completed by the property owner and a Certificate of Authority will be issued to dispose of the vehicle to a salvage yard. The vehicle cannot be put back into operation.
11. Can I obtain a bonded title on a vehicle that was given to me?Yes, but if possible get a statement in writing from the person giving you the vehicle. If given to you by a close relative, you may execute an "Affidavit of Motor Vehicle Gift Transfer" form and only pay the ten dollar gift tax.
12. If I did not receive a title when I purchased the vehicle is a bill of sale necessary?No. However, a bill of sale is helpful on larger Bonds and can often reduce the amount of sales tax due when you apply for a title. When there is no bill of sale you may be required to pay sales tax based on two thirds of the Presumptive Value, the NADA book value or the appraised value.
13. If the vehicle is inoperable will I have to register the vehicle when I apply for title?No. We will supply you with a Form VTR131 that will allow you to secure a title without registration or proof of insurance.
14. What should I do to obtain your service?You can download one of our Bonded Tile Questionnaires using the "Print Order Form" link on the left. Complete the form and mail or FAX (512-352-7154) it to us with a service fee of $150.00. We will also take your application using your credit card.

Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I am very prud that we are able to send our daughters to this amazing school. They won the Blue Ribbon School Of Excellence award this year. This school has dedicated teachers and staff that care for all the children.
We chose Our Lady of Mercy School, years ago, because of it's superb education and family atmosphere.
We moved to the area 4 years ago and OLM was our first step in joining the community. Not only are our three children challenged academically, OLM also challenges our children to see their place in the world and contribute to the world. As parents, we enjoy hearing compliments from other parents on our children's behavior, behavior that is expected of them not only at home but also at school. Our oldest child only has one more year at OLM before high school, and we're already sad for the departure. OLM distinguishes itself not only for the care and nurturing of our children, but also for the feeling of family that extends to the OLM parent community. We enjoy volunteering in the classroom, on the sporting fields, and anywhere we're needed because we feel part of the OLM family.
My child transferred in this year for seventh grade; they've helped her to develop a better work ethic and a greater interest in participating in school activities. Her grades have risen and her belief in her own ability to do well has as well.
We currently have four children attending OLM (grades 7, 5, 2, and K) and have been very impressed with all aspects of this school. There is a teacher and an assistant in every classroom allowing for more individualized attention to each student s needs. The volunteerism witnessed from other parents has been especially amazing. Our fifth child will begin their new preschool program next year. We are looking forward to another 10 years as a Mercy family!
I have not only worked at OLM for 8 years, I have 4 children who have gone through. When my last finishes the 8th grade next year I will have had a child at OLM for 16 straight years. Need I say more? The educational, moral, religious, and athletic learning that takes place here is fantastic!
My youngest son transferred to Our Lady of Mercy half way through first grade. When we moved to the area OLM was actually our third choice--two other private schools in town didn't have room for him. Now he is a rising 8th grader. He has been nurtured, encouraged and challenged at Our Lady of Mercy School. Parental participation, which is so essential for school success, is outstanding. His academic achievement and self esteem are excellent. We feel lucky to have found OLM!
I am a former student of Mercy and now a parent of two Mercy students. OLM is truly the only place that I want my children to be! The over whelming majority of my favorite childhood memories involve this school. From playing sports to going on feild trips (especially the Little Theater and Old Salem), School dances, and fund raiser events - the list goes on and on. OLM is truly more than a school it is my second family and part of my family tree! I can't tell you how awesome it is to watch my kids build that same foundation of education, discipline, morality, confidence, character, and true self worth in the same place as I did. If you think this is a little too good to be true. Go talk to the staff, talk to the kids, and chat with the parents some time - you'll
My daughters were students at OLM for one year as we were living in North Carolina temporarily. Words cannot describe the OLM spirit. It is something you feel as soon as you enter the school. Sister Geri, her staff, the parents, coaches, and students genuinely care about each other, the community, and the world. The academic program is excellent. We no longer live in North Carolina but what we miss the most is OLM. My daughters have such great memories of OLM. I think that says volumes. If you are relocating to NC and are looking for a school where your children will be accepted, challenged, and happy, enroll them in OLM.
My daughters learned more in their elementary years at OLM than they did in 4 years of public high school in Winston Salem. Wonderful administration and staff.
The way education should be! Each child is part of the school community and faculty and staff know each by name - regardless of their grade. The quality of education is fantastic. Parent involvement is very good. I wouldn't have my child attend school anywhere else.
I have been involved in Our Lady of Mercy 1995 and an active parent of two since 1997. I could not be happier with the school, its teachers, Sr. Geri (the current Principal), coaches and parents. Mercy has taught my children more than just mathematics and writing skills. They have taught them to be wonderful people, to think about other besides themselves, to give when can and to love everyday. Mercy opens its arms to welcome any faith, any race or any financial status. Children are respected and loved by each and every member that walks thru its halls. The Spirit that resides within the walls of Our Lady of Mercy is so powerful one cannot leave it behind. This will be my last year as a Mercy parent, but I hope it will not be my last as a volunteer. It is a family you will never want to leave. Jennifer Guidry
I have never been more pleased with a school!!! We went looking for a new school - attended the open house, met with the new principal, Sister Geri, and other students. Our experiences have been filled with great communication and a overall wonderful learning environment for our daughter. The teachers there are some of the best I have every dealt with!!!
We have had two children in this school and been involved since 1992. OLM offers the best of all educational experiences! The teachers are really willing to help the students LEARN not recite. The school is really a family and everyone is encouraged to be the very best that they can be. I would strongly encourage any parent looking for the optimum educational experience in Winston-Salem to consider this school. Visit it,listen to the children,talk to them. All of that is what makes the school so special.
I am a former student of Our lady of Mercy. I was so sad to leave after 5th grade. OLM changed my life in so many ways. I most liked the friendly atmosphere.

Very nice apartment
Good location,Liz and Robert was helpful
Good they have beach and snorkel equipment
We just came home from a 9-night stay on the Big Island at Liz and Robert's ohana in Kona. The apartment was nicely appointed, clean, comfortable, and quiet. It's on a cul-de-sac in a lovely residential area, so it was quiet and safe, but it was also very close to the ocean and all the action on Ali'i drive. It's within walking distance of White Sands/Magic beach and just a short drive to Ka'ha Lu'u beach park for good snorkeling. We don't like to deal with a lot of people at the big resorts and we like to explore on our own, so after going to a different beach everyday, it was nice to come back to the peace and comfort of the apartment. Liz and Robert were super nice and available to answer any questions and give advice. We packed light so when I needed to do a load of laundry, Liz readily gave me access to the washer/dryer. We really appreciated that, and the huge, tile shower with the awesome shower head was a real treat after a day in the sun, sand, and salt water. The location is really unique because we felt close enough to the shops, markets, and restaurants of Kona and the marina of Keauhou but tucked in a quiet, residential neighborhood. If you are looking for a relaxing place to stay with all the comforts of home, that's reasonably priced, where you can eat in (full kitchen) or go out to one of the many restaurants, this is an excellent choice. If we make it back there someday, we'll stay here again. We had a wonderful vacation.
All 3 of us had a great stay at Liz's place. We really appreciated how fast Liz answered all our questions prior to finalizing the booking. When we arrived we were impressed by the cleanliness of the apartment and how close it was to the beach. Highly recommend this place.
Beautiful place. Great location. Super nice hosts. Yay!
Liz's place is BEAUTIFUL! Our downstairs apartment was very fresh and clean, had 2 separate bedrooms, bath, full kitchen and even an outside patio. We felt very comfortable there.
Nice, out of the way apt.. but close enough to down town. It was advertised as quiet & it was (except for New Years Eve, but it was after all New Years Eve in Hawaii so the fireworks were expected). The kitchen was fully furnished if I had ever felt like cooking. There were also boogie boards, beach mats, & scuba gear for us to use. My two grandchildren loved the cat & dog that belong to Liz. I felt like this was a safe, restful place to stay & would recommend Honu Ohana
Absolutely love this place! Liz and Robert are excellent hosts and the unit provides all amenities need to make you feel comfortable. The two of us stayed there 8 nights with our two adult sized children and the unit was VERY comfortable. The location is great and downtown Kona is a close drive. There wasn't one bad thing we could say about the accommodations, in fact they way exceeded our expectations, especially for the reasonable rate!
The only disappointment we had is that we did not have the chance to get to know Liz and Robert better.
When we return to Kona, we definitely know where we will be staying!
Thanks guys!
Corey and Jessie
Staying in this home was extremely enjoyable. It's a two-story house in a quiet neighborhood with the owners living upstairs, so it's not suitable for those looking for a party (no problem for us). It is quite spacious; the kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom are all very large and comfortably furnished. The place was totally clean. Amenities (including wifi) as well as some toiletries and other small provisions are provided.
The owners seemed friendly and helpful, and they left us to our own devices (for those keen on privacy). The location was perfect -- within walking distance to a nice beach area and a 10-minute drive to Kona's touristy shops-and-cafes area. Overall, it was a perfect stay!
The pictures of our apartment were really nice and it was even more lovely than we expected. The kitchen had everything we needed and the space was clean, bright and airy and so close to the beach. Flowers fell from the overhanging trees right outside the front and back door. SO beautiful! It was a lovely place to stay, I have told all my friends and I look forward to finding my way back!

text: July The best eyeshadow to wear with bangs Lately it seems that bangs have been making a comeback - everyone from Kim Kardashian to Emma Stone has given them a try in the last few months. The look is ultra-chic, and former "One Tree Hill" star Sophia Bush has once again proven her unshakeable status as a style icon by pairing her blunt bangs with the perfect cosmetics. It's difficult to know what eye makeup to use when you have bangs, particularly if you have longer fringe like Bush. As the actress demonstrated multiple times on the red carpet, the key is to keep it simple. After applying primer, sweep peachy gold eyeshadow across your lids and dab a bit underneath your waterline. Use black eyeliner to make your eyes pop and finish with some thick black mascara. Bush often sports rosy cheeks with this look, which gives her a youthful glow. You can dress this fool-proof look up or down with your lipstick! For night, choose a deep berry hue like Bush did at Global Green's Annual Pre-Oscar Party. During the day, it's best to stick with something a little more simple. Choose a peachy hue or a shade that is just a touch darker than the natural color of your lips.

The entry to the hotel was small, but well defined. It reminded me of the old off Broadway hotels of downtown Manhattan, NY, very dark and not cheerful; however, the upper level elevator areas were cheerful, clean and bright.

The Charterhouse of Parma (Modern Library Classics)by Stendhal
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Richard Howard's exuberant and definitive rendition of Stendhal's stirring tale has brought about the rediscovery of this classic by modern readers. Stendhal narrates a young aristocrat's adventures in Napoleon's army and in the court of Parma, illuminating in the process the whole cloth of European history. As Balzac wrote, "Never before have the hearts of princes, ministers, courtiers, and women been depicted like this...one sees perfection in every detail."
With beautiful illustrations by Robert Andrew Parker. Synopsis:A fast-paced tale of a young soldier's adventures in Napoleon's army and in the court of Parma, "Charterhouse" is a classic replete with political and erotic intrigue, with energy and cool irony.
About the AuthorThe Modern Library has played a significant role in American cultural life for the better part of a century. The series was founded in 1917 by the publishers Boni and Liveright and eight years later acquired by Bennett Cerf and Donald Klopfer. It provided the foundation for their next publishing venture, Random House. The Modern Library has been a staple of the American book trade, providing readers with affordable hardbound editions of important works of literature and thought. For the Modern Library's seventy-fifth anniversary, Random House rede-signed the series, restoring as its emblem the running torchbearer created by Lucian Bernhard in 1925 and refurbishing jackets, bindings, and type, as well as inaugurating a new program of selecting titles. The Modern Library continues to provide the world's best books, at the best prices.

Stephen Nessen, Reporter, WNYC News
Stephen Nessen reports for the WNYC Newsroom and can often be heard live on Morning Edition.
Biking to BAM? Lock up your wheels on the newest invention in the David Byrne Alphabet. The musician/writer teamed up with a local artist to create a bike parking area unveiled Wednesday at the Brooklyn Academy of Music.
The KAWS/BAM/Byrne bike park (may we respectfully suggest calling it KABARYN) is located on Lafayette Avenue, across from BAM's Peter Jay Sharp Building. The Byrne-designed yellow rack features the musician's nonsensical phrase "Bold WinK."
"BAM is at the center of a neighborhood that is brimming with bike activity, so this inspiring new bike lot will be an additional amenity for our audience, and the community," said BAM's president Karen Brooks Hopkins.
The rack sits in front of a newly unveiled mural KAWS mural. "It's very similar to what I was doing on the street 15 years ago," the artist said. "I like to have a nice communication with people not expecting to see art."
KAWS also recently redesigned the Moonman award statues used at the MTV Video Music Awards.
KAWS is the first artist to be featured on the 20 -by 24-foot high wall. The graffiti artist Barry McGee has already laid claim to the wall at the Mark Morris Dance Center parking lot. KAWS says he's pushing to get a Todd James mural somewhere in the area.
"Bold WinK" is the third bike rack David Byrne has designed for BAM. The other two -- "PiNk cRoWN" and "MicRo Li" -- are located on the other side of the street. According to BAM, the Byrne bike racks "allow the creation of only certain letters in the alphabet, creating a special 'Byrne Bike Rack Alphabet.'"
Byrne, an avid cyclist, is the author of Bicycle Diaries.
Hopkins said the rack can fit up to 20 bikes.

I really wish that WNYC puts up a photo of what that empty lot has looked like for the past 15 or so years. It has been a chain-link fence with grass material on it. This is what the city needs, making something functional and more attractive, even if it is for a limited time.
I'm, frankly, more interested in the bookstore next door.
Just what the city needs: a piece of slick graffiti and a non-functional bike rack.
Fits 20 bikes?!! It would seem a pragmatic design should win over more celebrity worshi bullshit.
Is be interested to see how many bikes could be locked to a sensible racking which celebrates biking as opposed to Celebrity,
I'm hoping the city will acknowledge the unwisely designed space of the Byrne racks bolted allover Manhattan.
I love David Byrne's music. I would suggest that he stick to that. Someone could have done something good in that space.

Updated Jan 28, 2013 - 7:06 am
Mass. writer suggests quarterback Tom Brady would be a perfect fit for the Cardinals
That's the only logical explanation one can give for Hector Longo's piece in the Sunday edition of the Eagle-Tribune.
It's been nine years since the Patriots last claimed a Super Bowl title, and Longo suggests that a change might be needed in Foxboro.
What kind of change you ask?
Longo says the team should look into trading two-time NFL MVP and soon-to-be Canton-bound quarterback Tom Brady. Although Longo still believes Brady is an elite quarterback, after yet another disappointing postseason performance he's not convinced that the team has enough championship-caliber parts to ever get back to their Lombardi Trophy-winning days.
So what team does Longo think would be the best fit for the eight-time Pro Bowler's services?
Bruce Arians and the Arizona Cardinals.
First and foremost, the Cardinals can't hurt you. In the NFC West, Brady is as far away as possible. Unless he plays another five years � highly unlikely � the only place you'll encounter Brady again on the field of battle is at a Super Bowl.The Cardinals have the ammunition to attract the Patriots to the negotiating table. Remember, they pick at No. 7, an attractive spot for this draft, which has already been fortified by over 70 underclassmen.
Arizona also has incredible need. Most draftniks currently have the Cards dabbling with the likes of USC QB Matt Barkley or West Virginia's Geno Smith in the first round.
For a team that played four quarterbacks in 2012 and was 28th in passing offense it's nice to dream, but it's hard to fathom Bill Belichick and Robert Kraft parting ways with the face of their franchise.
Regardless, after hearing names like Michael Vick and Alex Smith projected as free agent targets for the Cardinals, a Brady rumor now and again never hurt anyone.
And for a town that has had it's fair share of news lately, what's one more major headline, right?

LOS ANGELES (AP) — A judge determined Tuesday that teen actress Ariel Winter's mother should not regain custody of the "Modern Family" star and that the 14-year-old should remain in her sister's care for the next several weeks.
Superior Court Judge Michael Levanas issued the ruling after considering a report by child protective investigators that was critical of Winter's mother, Chrisoula Workman.
The report found there was evidence of emotional abuse toward Winter, Levanas said, and the agency planned to step in and take its own action if Winter did not remain in a guardianship.
The ruling came more than six weeks after Workman was temporarily stripped of custody amid allegations she had been physically and emotionally abusive to Winter.
Levanas said the investigators' report found that claims of physical abuse were inconclusive, but an attorney for Winter's sister said they could be proven in a subsequent report.
The judge set a Dec. 12 trial date to determine whether Winter should be placed in a permanent guardianship.
Winter has been under the care of her sister, Shanelle Gray, since early October. Levanas said that if the case remains in his courtroom, he will make sure the family works toward reconciliation.
"I guarantee if it stays here, it will get better," the judge said. He said the Department of Children and Family Services could still choose to file its own case, which would remove it from his jurisdiction.
Winter's mother has denied all accusations that she was abusive to her daughter.
Winter's father, Glenn Workman, also filed an objection to the guardianship late Monday, stating he wants a better relationship with his daughter and would be willing to care for her.
"Even the judge today agreed that reunification is so important for a family, and while Ariel is still temporarily with her sister for now, we remain hopeful she will be home soon," Chrisoula and Glenn Workman wrote in a statement released Tuesday evening.
Levanas said Glenn Workman's filing was in conflict with statements he gave to investigators and that he could not give him custody of the young actress. He also noted that Glenn Workman described his estranged wife to investigators as "controlling and driven."
"A controlling mother does not mean she's unfit," Chrisoula Workman's attorney Anita Gumm said in court Tuesday. Gumm said after the hearing that the allegations of emotional abuse would also be proven false.

Another cool video. Something to keep in mind the next time you're bored in math class.
Is anyone old enough for this to remind them of a childhood game called Spirograph? I don't know if they let kids use it anymore, because there were pins involved.

At Botta mountain station (3000 m), there is a flight of steps behind the house leading up to a viewing platform.
Puffing we head on and up in Brienz, while ascending in a second climb from Sörenberg. On the south side with steam since 1892, and aboard large cabins on the mountain railway from the north.
The Monte Generoso is located at the Southern tip of Lake Lugano. It is one of the most exciting vistas of Ticino.
Cableway, architecture, adventure and stunning alpine views sum up an excursion to the "Les Diablerets" massif. And non-stop activities at almost 3000 meters above sea level.
