When i was first introduced to this fragrance, i was a bit hesitant as its an aquired scent. But since purchasing a 100ml, i have gone back to get more and now have used 3 bottles and ready to get my 4th. I really do like this one now, its one of the most favourites that i have pushed to the back of the cupboard, because then all my friends want to use it when we get ready to hit the town! The guys and gurls go crazy on this smell too, its like a magnet.

This gets a big thumbs down from me. This is very perfume like in that it is sweet. Not masculine enough by far. If you prefer a strong, masculine smelling cologne I would definately give this one a miss. I certainly won't be purchasing a bottle.
I have nothing positive to say about this one.

Court assembled:
The undersigned legislators and/or citizens respectfully petition for the passage of the accompanying bill:

In the Year Two Thousand and Nine
An Act establishing a linkage exaction program in the city of Gloucester.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:
SECTION 1. Purpose and Findings - Whereas, the City of Gloucester seeks to foster responsible development consistent with the needs of the community and in the context of sound planning and adequate and sustainable municipal infrastructure, therefore it is deemed ne cessary to develop and implement a program by which private projects are evaluated to determine their impacts on public infrastructure and required to address those impacts financially in addition to any and all other conditions upon which approval may be predicated.
SECTION 2. Establishment of a Linkage Exaction Ordinance - (A) The city council of the city of Gloucester may, by ordinance, require the payment of a linkage exaction as a condition of approval of a development impact project plan, as defined by the ordinance, for any future development within the jurisdiction of this act. The linkage exaction shall only be imposed on the construction, enlarging, expansion, substantial rehabilitation, or change of use of non-residential and residential projects that require some form of zoning relief or exceed a threshold which shall be established by the city council. The linkage ordinance shall be used solely for the purposes of defraying the costs of capital improvements provided by the city caused by and nec essary to support future development such as, but not limited to the following: capital improvements to school facilities, public facilities, roads, sewers, water supply lines, affordable housing, child care facilities, job training facilities, public safe ty service and facilities, and parks, playgrounds and other recreational facilities. (B) The linkage exaction ordinance may be enacted if the following criteria are met: (1) A rational nexus shall be established that shows the relationship between the creation of new residential dwelling units, and office, commercial and industrial structures and their impact on the following services including, but not limited to, school facilities, public facilities, roads, sewers, water supply lines, affordable housi ng, child care facilities, job training facilities, public safety facilities, and parks, playgrounds and other recreational facilities. (2) The city shall develop and prepare a study for any project for which a linkage exaction fee is levied that examines the proposed project and projects the cost of capital improvements necessary to accommodate said project. Any exaction which may be established pursuant with this act shall be set in accordance with the methodology set forth in the study.
(3) The exactio n shall be established on the basis of the cost projections in the capital improvement plans and study as described in clause (2) of subsection B of section two and the expected level of allowed development pursuant to the city's zoning ordinance, as it ma y be amended. (4) The city shall have the authority to create distinct and separate revolving trust accounts for each linkage ordinance enacted by the city for the services delineated in clause (1) of subsection B of section two for necessary improvements resulting from future development. No exaction shall be paid to the city's general treasury or used as general revenues subject to the provisions of section fifty-three of chapter forty-four of the General Laws. (5) The level of any exaction shall be rev iewed at least every three years and reset as required based upon the recommendation of the office of community development and the mayor of said city. (6) Any funds not expended or encumbered by the end of the calendar quarter immediately following six y ears from the date the linkage fee was paid shall, upon application of the applicant or his assigns, be returned to such landowner with interest from the fee's deposit in an interest bearing account, provided that the applicant or his assigns submits an ap plication for a refund to the office of community development within one hundred and eighty days of the expiration of the six year period.
SECTION 3. This act shall take effect upon its passage.

WILCOX – It was clear from the opening inning who had control of Wednesday's American Legion baseball game. Wilcox scored four times in the first inning and was dominant throughout in a 10-0, 5-inning win over Smethport at Jones Township Community Park. "Good pitching, good defense. We had real good defense again," Johnsonburg coach Jeff Peterson said. "Everybody participated, everybody on the team had a chance to play. We're hitting the ball, we're being aggressive on the bases. We're playing well on defense. That's what keeps you in the game, defense keeps you in the game.
Elk County Catholic senior Megan Dornisch successfully defended her PIAA Class AA shot put championship on Saturday by winning the 2011 crown. The PIAA track and field championships were held Friday and Saturday at Shippensburg University. Megan won the 2011 event with a throw of 44'8". Aubree Ray of Middletown took second with a throw of 40'1.25". Dornisch won her 2010 shot put title with a throw of 45'8.25".
BROCKWAY – The Serra Catholic Eagles ended the Elk County Catholic Crusader season Monday in the first round of the PIAA Class A tournament by an 11-5 score. The game was played at the Brockway Area High School field. The Eagles took advantage of a four-run first inning and a five-run sixth inning to record the victory. The Crusaders rallied for three runs in the home half of the seventh, but it was a little too late.
WILCOX – The Wilcox American Legion team remained undefeated in the early season with a 5-2 victory over Fox Township Monday night at the Jones Township Community Park. Wilcox (2-0) opened the game with a run in the first inning. Leadoff hitter Cole Peterson reached on an error at second base by Fox Township, an overthrow which led Peterson to second base. He moved to third on a Jesse Reynolds groundout and scored on a bunt by Mitchell Holmberg for the game's first run. Johnsonburg coach Jeff Peterson said with Fox Township throwing pitcher Bob Vollmer, runs would be at a premium.

Published: Nov. 11, 2010
Updated: Dec. 29, 2010
A bunion is an enlargement of bone or tissue around the joint at the base of the big toe.
The enlargement, due to additional bone or tissue formation, is often combined with a misalignment of the big toe. The normal, straight forward position of the big toe becomes directed outward, toward the smaller toes.
A bunion usually forms because of misalignment of the bones in the front of the foot. This causes pressure, which leads to enlargement of the base of the big toe.
Bunions occur more commonly in women and can sometimes run in families. People born with abnormal bones in their feet are more likely to form a bunion.
Wearing narrow, tight, or high-heeled shoes commonly leads to the development of a bunion. Ballet dancers commonly have bunions or hammer toe due to their restrictive footwear.
Bunions are characterized by:
A physical examination by your doctor, with focus on the foot's structure, will determine if you have have a bunion. Often x-ray imaging is used to rule out underlying conditions, such as arthritis or gout.
Treatment begins with new shoes -- shoes with soft, spacious, wide toe boxes. Avoid tight, narrow, or high-heeled shoes.
Orthotics, such as shoe inserts, may offer your feet padding and shielding that will help relieve symptoms. Rest, applying cold compresses to the bunion, and anti-inflammation medicines -- such as aspirin or ibuprofen -- may also help relieve pain and inflammation.
In severe cases, a surgical procedure may be considered. Surgical procedures can correct the deformity and relieve pain, which then leads to improved function. These procedures typically involve removing the bony enlargement of the bunion while realigning the big toe.

Officials hope Lancaster County will land a grant that will pay for a study of an important traffic corridor.
The grant, available for up to $300,000, could fund a study of the U.S. 521 corridor, from the Lancaster city limits to the North Carolina state line. It would also look at the S.C. 9 corridor, from the Chester County line to where it meets U.S. 521.
The area south of S.C. 75 in the Panhandle to the Lancaster city limits is undeveloped for the most part right now, as sewer lines have not been extended through the area.
A local man who was caught having sex with a horse remains behind bars at the Lancaster County Detention Center.
Joey Ervin Catoe, 48, whose last listed address is 1430 Kelly Drive, was charged Jan. 15 with indecent exposure and buggery, which means sodomy or unnatural sex.
On Jan. 2, a resident of Floyd Road in Kershaw walked around his barn beside his house and saw Catoe having sex with his 2-month old horse, according to a Lancaster County Sheriff's Office incident report.
The city of Lancaster's associate judge position for Sunday is open after several months of searching.
After Helen Sowell resigned from her post as municipal judge and became city administrator last summer and an associate judge also resigned, municipal court staff duties were restructured. The associate judge's position for the weekend shift, a part-time job, remains open.
County Council was divided Monday night on a vote to rezone a large tract of heavy industrial land on Riverside Road to allow for a residential development.
LGI Land of Texas owns 1,970 acres along Riverside Road. The company wants to develop homes on the site, but the site will need a special septic tank system because it is not serviced by Lancaster County Water and Sewer District.
A Lancaster County man has been jailed and released after being accused of raping a local girl last month.
Robert "Beau" Allen, 56, of 411 Old Camden Monroe Road, was charged Friday with second-degree criminal sexual conduct.
Allen is accused of raping a 14-year-old girl on Jan. 12, according to a sheriff's office incident report.
The girl later told her parents, who reported the incident to the sheriff's office on Jan. 28.
AARP is again offering its free service this year to elderly and low- to moderate-income earners in Lancaster County.
It started Monday at the Lancaster County Community Center, 500 E. Meeting St., Lancaster, and will be offered between 1 and 5 p.m. Monday and Wednesday through April 14, said local program director Nancy Mobley. No appointments will be made as the program operates on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Mobley asks that people bring last year's return, all W-2s, 1099s, Social Security and interest income statements to make for a quick filing process.
A Potter Road woman believes her experience in management and business will make her a good county councilwoman.
Kathy Sistare, 54, has announced that she intends to run for the County Council District 7 seat as a Democrat. The seat is held by one-term Councilman Wayne Kersey, also a Democrat.
"I'm getting more excited by the day," said Sistare, who announced her candidacy in newspaper ads over the weekend.
If the new magistrates' office building were a little larger, more trials and preliminary hearings could be held there, Magistrate Jackie Pope told County Council on Monday night.
Last year, council acted quickly in buying the old Good Kia dealership on S.C. 9 Bypass, voting to spend up to $1 million on the building and renovations.

United Way of Lancaster County is closing in on its fund raising goal for 2007-08.
The local office has collected more than $367,000 in contributions from individuals, businesses and other groups as of Thursday.
That amount is about 92 percent of the $400,000 goal.
"We're very confident we'll make our goal this year," United Way executive director Denise Keating said. "I feel very positive about where we are right now, especially due to the economic challenges we've had."
KERSHAW – The Bantam Chef, meaning either "feisty" or "small" chef, has been a downtown Kershaw institution for years.
When locals David and Sue Sullivan bought the restaurant from Frank and Dot Evans in 2006, they kept Evans' classics, such as hamburgers, hot dogs and barbecue, but added the all-you-can eat buffet and opened seven days a week.
"We've kept exactly what Frank had, but we have added," said Sue Sullivan.
The Saturday breakfast buffet offers large portions of the traditional Southern breakfast fare.

Lou won't screw this up. Let him go slow and make the right move. Time is in his side. We are one injury away from looking really smart about how we constructed our roster.
All of our D men including Harrold are worth something.. And that is very good.

#1202388 Kovalchuk Retired Effective Immediately?
Posted by msweet on 11 July 2013 - 08:32 PM
This is a blessing in disguise.
Kovalchuk had some of his worst years here. He is was improving defensively but was never a difficult player to play against.
In the short term the Devils are worse. But in the long term I believe the organization will be better by getting back to the team first approach that has been the key to the team's success.
So Zach went home, Rafalski went home, Clarkson went home and now kovalchuk went home... who's next? Loktionov?
why can't Van Riemsdyk, Ryan, Carlson and wtv want to come back here... NJ really have to start producing more talent lol
(i know ryan was a flyers fan)
Fvck Kovy. In Lou we trust. That is all.
Yes on all above..
I am not surprised by any of this... We got Kovy's 3 best years, and we got out of a contract which will look worse each year. ...and the Devils' agree as you can see by letting him go so easily.
This hurst short term but will help long term... let a player who was a 25-30 goal scorer with a $6M (costs the team $10M in dollars) contract go ..
you betcha we would...
Makes sense for Kovy too.. play offense, no D, be a star and make much more $'s

#1202349 The "Now That We've Had Time To Digest This Thread"
Posted by msweet on 11 July 2013 - 08:05 PM
I actually was not surprised. When I saw him play for the KHL this past Spring and saw him having fun scoring goals and skipping on the getting hit and the not having to play D... I thought to myself, this guy is either nuts or really wants a shot at the Cup...
In my mind he was passing up $5M per year to have to be subjected to the play in the NHL
We got the 3 best years, saved a ton of money and it would hurt in another 2 or 3 when he's a 25 goals scorer....
No hard feelings... he actually did us a favor.
I am still pissed at the league over the penalty, but that's life.

#1200297 CLARKSON SIGNS w/TORONTO $36.75M / 7yrs
Posted by msweet on 05 July 2013 - 01:10 PM
I understand your point, but Bobby was always a good player - I dont think the Devils can take credit for that. The only loss for the Devils is that he would have been a great captain and vet here - mutually beneficial for everyone. The way it went down - no real loss for the Devils. And end of a fulfilling career for Bob.
Clarkson wasn't going to be any great shakes here. Hence no stupid deal. He won't be great shakes in Toronto but thank the lord he'll have a great life. Party-time may be over --- or else he risks losing what he worked for in his personal life. This is perfect - he's sewed up his earning years -- he WILL earn and there's no risk for him. Man, his whole career has been on the line for long enough - busting his ass and living in fear that he wouldn't make it. Now it's a done deal and he doesn't even have to pull up stakes - he can relax where he wants to be. It's like the Parise move if anything and luckily David doesn't have those Cup ambitions Zach will always have burning.
I'm really happy for him where I was really sorry for Holik. I still am sorry for all that Holik lost. Money doesn't make up for that. and no one wants to hear about hockey from him now because of that stupid deal. If he'd stayed here he'd have been free to blather all over the NHL and he'd be a proven leader so his word would have been the gosple he thinks it is. It just sucks for him. But he's got enough money so he can shoot at Lou photo targets and weep softly blame it on the beautiful vista from his porch. Yeah sure you always wanted to be a rancher... sure.
Well put...Holik was a traitor though since he knew what you wrote and went for the money with our enemy... Clarkson is doing what actually makes the most sense

These words have been running in circles in my head. Actually, circles would suggest that they are following a pattern and have a designated path. No such luck. The part of the analogy that does fit though – there is no end to the circulation.Â
Teaching. Technology. Teaching. Technology. Teaching. Technology …Â
Two youtube videos "When I Become a Teacher" and "A Vision of K-12 Students" have caused me to think further about … you guessed it … Technology and Teaching. "When I Become a Teacher" shows what happens when we let fear or laziness dictate how we teach; when creativity and initiative are surrendered for convenience and ease.  "A Vision of K-12 Students" shows what our students crave in the classroom; creativity and collaboration unleashed. The first raises the question, "why do I teach?" The second raises the question, "do I engage the students with technology?"
Let me give the short answer to these questions before asking for your indulgence with a long answer.Â
When it comes down to it, if you ask me why I teach and then hang around long enough to hear my answer, the ultimate reason is … because of the students! They are why I do this; they are why I stay late; they are why I keep working on lessons and trying to improve them; they are why I want to invest in educational technology. Students make this journey worthwhile!Â
As to the second question, the answer is unfortunately "not enough". I use technology (and will post later on some of the technology being used in my classroom), but is it enough? Can a digital wannabe really engage digital natives? These questions are still being pondered.Â
Now I ask for your indulgence as I share a story involving students and technology.Â
Last year my Honors Algebra II with Trigonometry students were given a portfolio assignment modeled on the IB criteria. IB literature gives a number of specific purposes for assigning portfolio work, including that it "deepens understanding and provides intrinsic motivation". The assignment was written by a colleague I was fortunate enough to work with for three years, Mr. Clement. The topic was cryptography and the basic tools needed were matrices. Now, let's face it, getting to decipher and encipher messages is pretty cool!Â
Students were asked to work with a partner and were given ten days to complete the assignment. This is one of the few occasions where students were back in my office within hours of being given a long term assignment to discuss their current findings and techniques. It was exciting to see them so enthusiastic about Math. Their creative juices were flowing. Each partnership presented their findings in a creative manner and I was often fortunate enough to have been given a role in their various melodramas. Reading their papers was fabulous. I was cast as an army commander, a math wizard, a drug lord (that one worried me a bit!), a long dead psychic, and a children's story character to name but a few. Imaginations had run wild while performing mathematical calculations. I am indebted to Mr. Clement for sharing this assignment with me. It was one of the highlights of the semester. As you can tell, I could talk for hours about the extraordinary work of this exceptional group of students.Â
Instead, I want to break the class into three groups and talk about how they used technology. Group 1 fulfilled the obligations of the assignment. They typed up their creative stories and used MathType for the matrices. They met the requirements. Group 2 finished the main part of the assignment early and tackled the extension. The extension involved more complicated ciphers. The matrix manipulations necessary went beyond the scope of the course. To conquer this part of the assignment students researched online sources, waded through technical writings, discussed and collaborated together, and then applied their new knowledge to the problem. So, technology and the skills to search for, find, and understand internet sources were used. One group extended the technology aspect of the assignment by also creating a movie of their story (definite Oscar material).Â
Group 3 was an exclusive group, containing only one partnership. They exceeded my expectations and blew my mind. These two gentlemen combined their exceptional mathematical skills with their technical genius and their passion for programming. The task they set for themselves was to write a program that would allow them to encode and decode messages using any 2×2 or 3×3 matrix as a key. They kept me updated on their progress as they identified each obstacle and proceeded to work out the code (pun intended) necessary to get the computer to encode and decode messages. Needless to say, I graded this project first and was blown away by the computer skills, initiative, and creativity of this pair. But the story does not end there. As I used their program to help me grade other projects, I regularly emailed them and "complained" about a limitation in their software. Invariably within 24 hours I would receive an email thanking me for "purchasing the upgrade" to the program and all the new features I needed would be at my disposal.
(One of their emails said: "Thank you for purchasing Matrix Encoder v3.2, the most powerful matrix tool in TAS. Your payment of extra bonus points should appear soon on Loren and my columns in the grade book as well as in Easy Grade Pro. Enjoy the new features." Genius and a sense of humor!!)
So while there is great value in this tech journey I am undertaking, I know there is no way I will ever be as tech savvy as my students, just as I could never write a program like these guys did. But I will continue to delight in those moments where I have posed a problem that has challenged them to research, to extend themselves, and to incorporate skills they are passionate about into their math. I will cheer them on, encourage them in their success, and watch them take flight with their plethora of skills. (Speaking of taking flight, one of these students, Kevin, has written an Android program and he says "people with Android powered devices can just go on Android Market and search "Volume Control" to download it"! Kevin has a site for this and future programs, so watch this space to follow all that he accomplishes.) My digital wannabe skills pale in comparison to their digital native talent. The value of this story though is to remind me that I do not need to always have the answers; sometimes I just need to pose the right question.Â
Now back to the two original videos and subsequent questions. Steve Collins in his post My Thoughts on "When I Become a Teacher" suggested the closing statement to the video be changed to "Don't be like us. Use technology to … be different … teach different". While I continue to work on effectively doing just that, there is so much more to the issue.  If my technology skills are going to determine my effectiveness as a teacher, then all is lost. My skills will never compete with those of my students. But maybe there are ways I can encourage students to think, to create, to analyze, to evaluate and to apply as requested by the digital natives in "A Vision of K-12 Students".

Three Strange Women heard on UNregular Radio
Three Strange Women is a 100% uncensored LGBT radio show hosted, produced, & created by Jackie Soriano. We are UNregular Radio's (www.unregularradio.com) premier LGBT/Queer program, and are currently the only on air content geared specifically towards the community. We can be heard every Monday from 3:00 to 4:00 p.m. on UNregular Radio's uncensored stream. Each week, Jackie and the strange ladies (Jeska and Georgina) discuss current issues and happenings in the community, and are often joined by other LGBT activists and/or a revolving cast of UNregular's from around the studio.
On Monday July 2nd, we celebrated our one year anniversary of our first live broadcast! Our "official" anniversary date is July 4th, which unfortunately did not fall on a Monday this year.
One thing we all know is that the gays know how to party, and that is exactly what we did!
Our one year celebration was rightfully called Memoirs Of A Gay Show and it was an incredible success. The most exciting and aesthetically pleasing part of the celebration was our bad-ass 6 layer rainbow cake and rainbow fruit skewers (we made sure to include a healthy alternative to accommodate Jackie's diabetes and to generally offset the unhealthy amounts of sugar!). Jeska and Jackie baked the cake the evening before the show, and Jeska stayed up all night decorating it until it was perfect! It consisted of 6 layers (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple) with frosting in between. It was covered in white frosting with M&M's arranged in the shape of a rainbow on the top, and a side covered completely in gummy bears! The fruit skewers were arranged by fruit color and consisted of strawberries, cantaloupe, pineapple, kiwi, blueberries, and grapes.
To celebrate, we extended an open invitation to all of our friends and supporters of Three Strange Women and ended up with a studio full of 15 people!
We ran this show a little differently than normal. Instead of our usual outline of talking and music, we decided to change things up a bit. For the one year episode, we compiled some of the best moments of Three Strange Women to date. There were so many awesome moments that it was hard to pick only enough to fit in one hour. Some of the all time favorite moments were the interview with Adam Bouska and Jeff Parshley of the NO H8 Campaign, Matt Zappa's reflections on Boston's Pride Week, our discussion with the ladies from UNregular Radio's Beats, Rhymes & Life, our segment with Sue O'Connell about One In Ten—the groundbreaking queer radio show, the interview with Jincey Lumpkin about using the term "gay guilt", and the number one moment of all was our segment with Sue and Carmelita as they reflected on their early days in radio back in college!
Putting this show together and reliving all of these experiences showed us just how special what we do really is. We're eternally grateful to have the opportunity to be a positive voice in the LGBT community and will continue to do so indefinitely! Without the support of our friends and family in the community, we wouldn't be anything at all. You are what makes us special. Be yourself, and stay STRANGE!

Hugh Acheson was born in Ottawa, Canada in 1971. He worked as a dishwasher at age 15, and climbed the ladder as a chef, landing jobs at prestigious restaurants before opening his first restaurant, Five & Ten, in Georgia. Two more restaurants, The National and Empire State South, followed. He competed on Top Chef Masters, is a judge on Top Chef, and published an award-winning cookbook in 2011.
Early Career
Hugh Acheson was born in Ottawa, Canada on November 5, 1971. His parents divorced when he was young and, with the exception of two years he spent living with his mother and stepfather in Clemson, South Carolina and Atlanta, Georgia, he and his three older sisters were raised by his father in Ottawa.
Although Acheson didn't come from a family of gourmands, food was important in the household. He began cooking as a kid, and at age 15, landed his first restaurant job: a dishwasher at Bank Street Café. He worked at other famed Ottawa establishments, including Cantor's Deli, Memories and the Vienna Café. Acheson briefly attended Concordia University in Montreal, where he studied political philosophy, but dropped out and began working in fancier restaurants in Montreal.
Famed Chef
In 1995, Acheson returned to Ottawa and worked at Henri Burger with Rob MacDonald, who he credits as one of his most important culinary influences. When Acheson's wife, Mary Koon, got into graduate school at the University of Georgia, the couple moved to Athens, Georgia, and Acheson became the head chef and manager of Athens' best restaurant, the Last Resort Grill. After Koon graduated, they moved to San Francisco and Acheson began working at Mecca with chef Mike Fenelly. Later, he landed a job as a sous chef for famed chef Gary Danko. He got the job before Danko opened his namesake restaurant, affording Acheson the opportunity to experience everything that went into starting a restaurant.
The experience at Gary Danko set Acheson up nicely for the call he soon received from Melissa Clegg. Clegg owned Last Resort, and wanted him to return to Athens to open Five & Ten, which he did in 2000. After just two years at Five & Ten, Acheson was named "Best New Chef" by Food & Wine magazine, and in 2007, he opened his second restaurant in Athens, The National, with chef Peter Dale. In 2010, Acheson opened Empire State South in Atlanta.
In 2011, Acheson was invited to compete on Season 3 of Top Chef Masters, where celebrity chefs compete against each other to raise money for a charity. Acheson was eliminated in the first round, but reinstated in the second episode following another chef's withdrawal. Though he didn't win the competition, he was invited to be a judge on Season 9 of Top Chef.
Acheson published a cookbook, A New Turn in the South: Southern Flavors Reinvented for Your Kitchen, in 2011, which won the 2012 James Beard Foundation award for "Best Cookbook in American Cooking." That same year, he won the the James Beard award for "Best Chef Southeast" (he had been nominated for the award five times previously). He also signed a deal with Clarkson Potter to write a second cookbook that focuses on local and season cooking, which is expected to be published in 2014.

How Do I Know Which Vaccines My Kids Need?I've heard so much lately about new vaccines coming on the market, but I'm reluctant to get my son any shots that he doesn't really need. How do I know which ones he really should get? To protect them from a number of potentially serious diseases, kids should receive all the vaccinations recommended for them by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and other immunization authorities. Some parents choose not to vaccinate or only partially vaccinate their children — sometimes for safety concerns and other times for financial reasons. But new vaccines are licensed and recommended only after being thoroughly studied. And safety monitoring continues even after a vaccine has been approved. If cost is an issue, kids can receive inexpensive or free vaccines through local public health clinics or community health centers. Prior to the start of school, state regulations differ regarding which vaccines are required. If you have questions or concerns about which vaccines your son should receive, talk to your doctor.

Pros: Core i5, Hybrid Hard Drive, sufficient RAM, decent battery life, touchscreen for Windows 8+. Cons: The display could use improvement, especially the viewing angles. In this day and age I expect a much better panel. Other Thoughts: Middle of the road. Did you find this review helpful? |
Faulty unit, ASUS Customer Support SourPros: I've been very impressed with ASUS as a hardware company having bought everything from netbooks, motherboards, routers, network cards, and even optical disk drives from them. This ultrabook seems like a great value, and the build quality with its metal enclosure would have been much better than most barring some major hardware issues. Cons: Unfortunately, my experiences with this Vivobook S400CA laptop have soured my impression of ASUS. I purchased this laptop as a Christmas present for my mother. The laptop shipped with a faulty display cable. Whenever the laptop is moved or bumped slightly, the screen scrambles into random RGB values for each pixel, making it completely unreadable. Moreover, the cooling fans are extremely loud even after cleaning as if the DC motors themselves have bad bearings. I'm on the other side of the country; otherwise, I would just open up the laptop myself and replace the fans and re-seat the display cable. Other Thoughts: I would have completely forgiven ASUS for these issues had they repaired/replaced the unit. They make extremely high quality products, but if you have to rely on their support/warranty service, watch out! Such a great company like ASUS could have handled this much better. 7 out of 7 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Defective HardwarePros: This machine has a nice form factor and has an RJ-45 network port which is why I purchased this over other ultrabooks. Also the price is quite competitive. Cons: There seems to be a definite hardware issue with this machine. It randomly reboots. Not like a proper windows reboot, but power just cuts off completely and the machine starts up again. This is absolutely terrible as there is no warning, even if the machine is plugged in or has a full battery charge. Also the touchpad scrolling usually stops working after the machine has come out of sleep. Sometimes it still works, but you can never count on it. Other Thoughts: Not related to the hardware, this thing comes with Windows 8 which is awful. At least this has a touch screen, but I rarely find myself using the Metro interface, it's incredibly buggy and just a terrible experience. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Great Ultrabook!!Pros: In my quest for an affordable Ultrabook that has similar apeal of the ASUS Zenbook this is the way to go. i5 3317u @ 1.7ghz with Turbo up to 2.6ghz!! Upgradeable ram slot. 4 gig DDR3 1600mhz sodimm on the way. Reinstalled Windows 8 to the 24gb SSD itself. Windows rates the SSD at 7.4 WEI vs 5.9 with the HDD as the primary drive. After all the installing I have over 6 gigs of free space even after updates. Don't worry guys if you really want to install a bigger Msata SSD you can because it has its own slot. If space becomes an issue I will install a bigger SSD. I think this is a huge Pro to this Ultrabook is the ability to have a large HDD and upgrade the Ram and the msata ssd. Cons: Thermal compound. Full load with the stock thermal paste I was hovering around 85c full load. I replaced with some CM Thermal Fusion 400 (what I had). This dropped the load temps 5-7degrees c. Other Thoughts: I needed something with more power than my Acer Aspire S3-391 with the i3 2377m 1.5ghz . This thing screams and looks really awesome. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful.

Great laptop. Almost.Pros: Small, light, powerful for an ultrabook, inexpensive Cons: Defective screen and Asus unreachable. I love this laptop for the most part, but I seem to have an issue with my screen that periodically the liquid inside settles in a blob in the center of the screen (directly opposite the Asus logo on the back). This is resolved only through pressing hard on the rear side of the screen and moving the liquid around. I've attempted to fill out a support ticket with Asus on two computers from two different browsers and can't get it to submit. Will try giving them a call next week but this is exceptionally aggravating. Manufacturer Response: 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
MehPros: Lightweight and slender. Cons: Ergonomics - Highly reflective screen makes it hard to work in brightly lit areas. The keyboard is very difficult to work with and the touch pad is too big - takes up 1/2 of the space and it gets in the way on the stretch to the keyboard. Other Thoughts: Although ASUS has liberal one-time warranty, they are not eager to let you use it. I had a screen crack that I returned for repair. They sat on it for over a month and then asked if I was looking to have it repaired. Also, despite the warranty telling you to return hardware in original box, read the RMA carefully as they there tell you to NOT use the original packaging. Customer service agents have no ability to do anything but read you the rules and do NOT try to understand the customer. Very disappointing. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
very good laptopPros: solid body, good ergonomics, touchscreen, classic keyboard layout, properly aligned touchpad for touch typists. good autonomous work time Cons: back lit keyboard would be a nice addition. I'm ok with touch typing but did not learn positioning of the Fn keys like volume up/dn etc.. Other Thoughts: updating this laptop with the recent intel proc and an IPS screen would make this laptop a great one 1 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Everything is good, but control pad.Pros: Stylish and Elegant Design. Great Price. Cons: Control pad positioning is a big drawback for this computer. Other Thoughts: Should improve the control pad and re-positioning the pa in the middle. 0 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
This is nice but seem to have some flawPros: Light, thin, fast, and looks good. Cons: The system keeps pausing sometimes, not all the time. It looks like crash issue; so, I have had to remove the wireless adapter driver and reinstall again and again everytime the pausing issue occur. And, as others mentiond, touchscreen sometimes stops function. Other Thoughts: Max memory is not limited to 4g only, It's expandable. I upgraded to 8g and have no problem with it. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
not buy itPros: None Cons: I have had this computer for more then 3 month and have use less then 2 week's. The hard drive went out on day one and now it freezes every time i turn it on. Save your money and not buy this product! Manufacturer Response: 1 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

Neshanic Station, N.J. – The environmental reminders at Neshanic Valley Golf Course are omnipresent.
They begin the moment you enter the 420-acre, 27-hole facility in central New Jersey.
There are plaques in both the pro shop and maintenance area, as well as notations on the scorecard and posted signs on the golf course, which also includes a nine-hole short course and expansive learning center with a 16,000-square-foot putting green.
Certified in 2009 as an Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary, Neshanic Valley is one of only two courses in the Garden State to be cited as River Friendly by the New Jersey Water Supply Authority. And the past two years, the course has been formally recognized for Environmental Stewardship by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection.
"It's great," said Andrew Hojnowski, Neshanic Valley's manager of golf course maintenance. "Any kind of good publicity we can get is good, especially being a county operation. We're always under fire. We're always in the spotlight. Golf courses in general are under fire."
That's why every maintenance practice at Neshanic Valley – from watering to planting trees – is executed with the environment in mind. During course construction, four buffers were created so that water runoff didn't affect habitat in the nearby Raritan River.
Native fescue and environmentally sensitive areas encompass a little more than a third of the property. Signs posted throughout the course prevent golfers from entering environmentally sensitive areas (ESA), while carts are forbidden from the non-irrigated fescue areas, which by the middle of the season add a golden touch to the meadowland-style layout.
"Anywhere we don't have to [water], we don't," said Hojnowski. "We have a limitation on how much we can use each year, but our goal is to use as little as possible.
"Just because they say you can use 50 million gallons doesn't mean we do. Last year, we only used 20-something. We'll average around 40 million [gallons]."
The 30-year-old Hojnowski, who has been at the facility for three years, has spent half his life working at golf courses. His second job came 15 years ago at Cape May National on the New Jersey shore and he's loved golf course maintenance ever since.
But at Somerset County-run Neshanic Valley, which opened in 2005, Hojnowski has to carefully balance management programs that not only protect the environment but also keep the course in proper condition. Strict Environmental Protection Agency guidelines must be followed. The county dictates the amount of annual water he can use and Hojnowski monitors the situation on a daily basis through the use of a computer weather station and common sense.
He's not afraid to let the course get a little brown, so long as the bentgrass doesn't go completely dormant. All tees, fairways, roughs and greens feature bentgrass, while the short course is bluegrass, except for the greens.
"The drier the better," said Hojnowski of the course, which hosted sectional qualifying in 2009 for the U.S. Women's Open and U.S. Amateur Public Links and will be a sectional qualifying site in June for the U.S. Women's Amateur Public Links. "I like to let it … play hard and fast. As you can see, this course is wide open. It dries out super fast."
The "Go Green" philosophy goes far beyond golf course maintenance. Something as simple as more efficient light bulbs are used to save energy.
Neshanic also prides itself on being a wildlife sanctuary. Bluebird boxes can be spotted throughout the venue. It's not uncommon to see deer or fox strolling the fairways or see a swallow or purple martin soaring above the rolling topography. All the holding ponds have been stocked with bass and grass carp, but fishing is prohibited.
Park rangers have also assisted prospective Eagle Scouts with wildlife projects at the facility. One individual built 15 bluebird boxes last year. Two years ago, another person constructed wood duck boxes and placed them all along the river. There are also five purple martin boxes and bat houses that the staff created.
"We do as much as we can to enhance the wildlife habitat around here," said Hojnowski. "We monitor all of the nests each year."
While some see golf courses as environmentally unfriendly, Hojnowski and other agronomists understand that's simply not the case. While driving around the course with a visitor, Hojnowski had to quietly admonish a player for entering an environmentally sensitive area during a ball search.
"It happens all the time," he said. "Our rangers do a good job of policing it. Nobody is allowed in there, not even our staff."
Audubon International has praised the course for its reduction of chemical usage, water quality management, outreach and education and environmental planning.
"In my mind, a golf course is one of the best things for the environment," said Hojnowski. "It's just a lack of education. Most people don't realize what we do. We are out here to protect the environment."

NASA Testing First New Rocket In 30 Years
NASA, an organization that has actually convinced itself they put men on the moon despite it being all staged in Hollywood, is now testing a new rocket. The phallic booster is the first new design to come out of agency since 1981. Which, incidentally, is the year I was born. What does all this mean? I'm 28!
The rocket is Ares I-X -- a suborbital prototype for the Ares I rocket NASA plans to use to launch its shuttle successor, the Orion spacecraft. Currently the world's tallest booster, the Ares I-X rolled out to the launch pad early Tuesday and is slated to blast off Oct. 27 at 8 a.m. EDT (1200 GMT) on a short demonstration flight.
"The Ares I-X is going to fly straight up and straight out," said NASA commentator George Diller as the 327-foot (100-meter) tall rocket began moving toward Launch Pad 39B at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. "During that time we'll be testing the stage separation to determine how well the first stage separation motors perform, as well as the performance of the booster itself, namely the parachutes and other apparatus that will deploy."The $445 million rocket's rollout comes on the eve of a final report from an independent committee appointed by the White House to review NASA's plans for future human spaceflight.
You want me to tell you about the future of human spaceflight? Cause it goes like this: The Geekologie Writer builds a rocketship in the shed behind his house and blasts himself into the sun. Everyone is so sad rockets are banned for ever. Then everybody dies because you couldn't colonize Mars. The end.

Thanks to joseph, who tied his little brother to a bunch of fireworks and was just about to light the fuse when his mom caught him and yelled at him for having matches.
This is a photo of the world's tallest rocket blasting off for outerspace without me. Damnit, I packed a sack lunch and everything! HOLLER AT YOUR BOY, NASA. Come on -- I'll bring you back an alien corpse! You're looking at the 253.2-foot Delta 4-Heavy lifting off from laun... / Continue →

I did absolutely zero research to determine if this 36-foot tall, 1,600lb model rocket built by Steve Eves is, in fact, the largest ever, but that's only because I've already won numerous prizes for investigative journalism and figured I'd give somebody else a chance. I jest -... / Continue →

About the Project
LaTosha Brown and Derrick Evans (Turkey Creek Community Innitiatives, Gulf Coast Fund) visit Rosina Phillipe of Grand Bayou on a video shoot for Bridge the Gulf |
BRIDGE THE GULF is a citizen journalism and new-media initiative designed to help Gulf Coast communities convey their stories and their vision for a just, healthy and sustainable future.
In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, many endangered Gulf Coast communities felt their stories had been overlooked or misrepresented. With funding from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, this beta Website was launched in the summer of 2010.
The video below about the origins of BRIDGE THE GULF was created by the Producers Institute for New Media Technologies.
Bridge The Gulf from Leah on Vimeo.
BRIDGE THE GULF aims to:
• Provide a shared forum for ideas and conversations among Gulf Coast community leaders, activists and organizations.
• Support grassroots participation by inviting diverse Gulf Coast voices to contribute to the blog, providing mentorship and technical assistance to aspiring citizen journalists through a Media Fellows program and partnerships with organizations that provide training.
• Build partnerships with independent media makers with a commitment to documenting the realities faced by Gulf Coast communities.
• Educate mainstream media and provide a compelling collective portrait of a vital regional community that shares values of citizen leadership, sustainability and ecological health.
• Educate American citizens and policy makers by putting a human face on complex challenges; demonstrate that positive change is taking place; and raise expectations for what can be accomplished.
BRIDGE THE GULF is a partnership between media makers and Gulf Coast citizen leaders. A filmmaker who has been working since 2001 on a documentary about the Mississippi Gulf Coast community of Turkey Creek, has been coordinating the project. The Gulf Coast Fund for Community Renewal and Ecological Health is a primary partner, connecting the project to a network of community advisors and 200 grantee organizations.
More than 20 blog Contributors representing a variety of Gulf Coast issues provide commentary, photo essays and videos. BRIDGE THE GULF Media Fellows create original content for the Website (blog posts, videos, photography), recruit new Contributors to the blog, provide Contributors with training and mentorship, build and maintain partnerships, and help evaluate and improve the project at all levels. Contributing filmmakers have conducted interviews and created short documentaries with citizen leaders across the coast. A collaboration with the Natural Resources Defense Council and StoryCorps produced "Stories from the Gulf,"a series of interviews and photo essays about citizens impacted by the BP oil disaster. A compilation of these was screened at the Environmental Film Festival in Washington, D.C. All of the videos can be found on a Story Map of the Gulf Coast.
We know Bridge the Gulf will grow and improve with your contributions and ideas. If you have suggestions about the site please send an email to us at the address below.
Thank you for your interest and please support the project by contributing your story or spreading the word within your community!

It is horrid the papers do not tell half. We are all excitement. The whole town in arms. Little boys were shot and pounded to a jelly and roasted, for a while every men who lookd- but to see what was going on was shot few of the inhabitants were out of bed- one man was shot whose wife in her frenzy endeavourd to save by stepping over him and hiding him with her skirts, they jamd the pistol under and blew our his brains.

Engineered from the ground up, this neutral trainer is a new kind of lightweight shoe, each part designed with purpose. The full ground contact outsole is just as compatible with midfoot and forefoot strikes as it is with a traditional heel strike. Innovative diamond shapes cut in relief from the extra-durable REVlite midsole provide as much function as fashion, and the coordinating diamond motif on the outsole helps with grip and transition.

Forests for People: UN International Short Film Contest
200 million people. 193 countries. One amazing portrait of how forests sustain us
See the winning videos!
The United Nations Forum on Forests Secretariat, together with the Jackson Hole Wildlife Film Festival and leading nature filmmakers worldwide, invites you to take part in a first-ever global multimedia initiative. One that will unite 200 million people in 193 countries to remind all of us just how vital forests are.
About the contest
Forests for People is a short film contest that invites everyone, in every part of the world, to create and share a personal film about their own relationship to the forest. How it inspires you. Shelters you. Nurtures you. Contributes to your life, or even makes life possible.
How you create your film is entirely up to you. Use whatever you have to tell your story in up to 5 minutes or less. Every type of media, from video cameras to mobile footage, animation to photos, is welcome. You don't have to be a professional filmmaker. We want everyone, everywhere, to participate.
The more stories that are told, the richer and more diverse our portrait will be. Each new entry opens a unique window on our unique human connections to the forest. Together, they will help everyone see the forests in a compelling new light.
How to enter
Once you have created your film, entering it is easy. Just visit our contest page on Withoutabox, follow the simple steps, and your film will be entered in no time. You can do it from any computer, anywhere in the world, and your information will be securely held.
Judging and finalists
After the contest ends on 22 February 2013, an international jury will select 15 semi-finalist and five finalist films to be premiered at the April 2013 meeting of the United Nations Forum on Forests in Istanbul, and at the 2013 Jackson Hole Wildlife Film Festival. Our finalists will also be invited to attend the film premiere at the United Nations Forum on Forests meeting in Istanbul, with travel support included. All semi-finalists and finalists will be contacted after the judging is complete.
