Customers most agreed on the following attributes:
this costume was one of a kind in this town, people were just in ah and ooh to scary but it was worth the permanent smile on the clowns face.
The mask you actually receive is NOTHING like the mask in the photo. The green hair attached to each side is about 1/4" of the size and fullness of the picture online. The mask has no back so it doesn't stay on the face tight. The band to Velcro the mask to the face is cheap and DOES not work. I am having to add a back and new hair to cover the back and replace the pitiful hair that was provided. BEYOND disappointed in the mask!
He loves the shirt and collar, but the MASK was cheap, CHEAP, CHEAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The shirt is great. The mask not so great, it just barely covers the front of the face. The online picture is very misleading, because it does not cover any of the head. Also, there appears to be a lot of green hair, but there is hardly any. Very disappointed with mask.

Student video project could aid in solving seven-year-old murder1/4/13Nancy Paoletti, a senior communications major at Penn State Beaver, has completed a student project that could help area police solve the murder of a 94-year-old woman who was killed seven years ago in a home invasion in Beaver County. Police have determined that Paoletti's work may be helpful in continuing their investigation on the cold case. Paoletti is a student in the television field production class taught by John Chapin, professor of communications, who requires students to complete a service learning project. Chapin and Paoletti partnered with police, the district attorney's office and first responders at the crime scene to create a video detailing the case. Paoletti can be contacted at email@example.com, and Chapin can be reached at email@example.com or 724-773-3877.

Puerto Rican girl overpowers a sweet blonde
Daisy was having trouble getting through her night at the club.
She was a stripper and although she was expected to be upbeat, she could not get over the fact that her boyfriend Juan had slept with a blonde woman that she hadn't even ever met.
Daisy's friends told her what had happened and she couldn't believe it. It definitely did not help that Juan was the manager and that now she might even lose some of the perks that she had gotten as a dancer here.
Where did Juan meet her? This was not even a part of town where one would expect to find white girls, particularly a blue-eyed blonde.
To make matters even more humiliating for Daisy, she discovered that the blonde woman was 35, almost twice as old as Daisy.
What is it about blondes that men go crazy for, wondered Daisy.
Daisy was finishing her set and gathering her dollar bills from the stage when one of the girls called her over.
The other girl whispered something in her ear and the two made their way hastily to the dressing room.
"That's her", Lexus said breathily to Daisy as Daisy's chest heaved up and down both from the emotion of the news and from the fact that she had just gotten offstage.
Daisy looked from the dressing room to the small linen draped table just off the main stage and saw her.
Her name was Lesley and she was clearly here to see Juan.
Daisy saw Juan looking a bit awkward as Lesley waved to him. Juan came over and suggested that Lesley finish her drink and be on her way. He knew what Daisy was capable of doing to Lesley.
Lesley waved him off dismissively and Juan withdrew to the safety of his office.
Daisy stared at Lesley for a long time.
Lesley was standing now. In her short blue dress, she was a knock out. She was talking to one of the other girls.
Lesley was not tall but she had long shapely legs and was not wearing nylons, as this was a warm night. Lesley's legs were not pink, as Daisy might have expected white girls' legs to be but rather a very light orange. They were beautiful, even to Daisy
Lesley was not thin but definitely not at all overweight. She looked sultry in her outfit.
Daisy found a mirror along the wall and compared her own body to Lesley's.
They both had nice long legs but Daisy's were thinner. They both had relatively small breasts but very prominent and responsive nipples, especially now in the air-conditioned room.
They both had great asses that both thought were too large but that men would die for.
Daisy was wearing a black teddy that was still a bit damp from sweat from her last time on stage.
Daisy's legs looked muscular but in a feminine way. Her garment nicely showed them off.
Daisy used those legs now to walk over to Lesley.
Standing next to her, Daisy was shocked that Lesley was not tall. Lesley was maybe 5'4", almost exactly as tall as Daisy.
As she walked closer, Lesley took notice of Daisy's angry face.
Daisy stopped abruptly within inches of Lesley. The room stopped to stare at the two women as silence overtook the room.
The DJ had just finished a song and was lost in this moment of tension and did not put on another.
The room was deadly silent now and the crowd could see the front of Lesley's beautiful legs juxtaposed against the backs of Daisy's equally sexy legs.
Lesley looked bewildered, "Can I help you?" is all that Lesley said but said it in a condescending way that Daisy was accustomed to hearing from white people.
"WE have something in common." Daisy said through clenched teeth.
"Pardon?", Lesley said with a roll of her eyes.
"You know Juan, you know him very well."
Lesley knew what this was about now and knew she was in trouble.
"Oh, you must be Daisy." Lesley said it with a smile that had gotten her out of trouble in the past.
"Shut up and get out of here, bitch. Gringas get their asses beat in here."
Lesley's smile vanished and was replaced by anger.
"I will finish my drink and my business here.(then unwisely added)If you had been more of a woman, he wouldn't have ever come to my bed."
The crowd could see the muscles tensing in the back of Daisy's legs.
Then Daisy pounced.
Lesley screamed as the Puerto Rican girl grabbed a handful of Lesley's long blonde hair.
Lesley's head flew back as Daisy twisted and then bent her over the small table. Lesley struggled to get away but Daisy was determined to lock Lesley in place.
Bent over in this way, Daisy spread Lesley's long legs with her own.
Daisy's brown legs and Lesley's white legs looked beautiful together in contrast.
Lesley tried to reach Daisy from behind but she was in too awkward a position. Her hands merely clawed at the air.
Daisy's attention turned now to Lesley's legs.
They were beautiful and Daisy knew that Juan's hands had been all over them. Daisy lifted up the back of Lesley's short skirt and tore at Lesley's panties until they fell off, revealing Lesley's beautiful ass to the crowd.
Daisy began to feel up and down Lesley's thigh and ass cheeks.
Lesley was crying "NO" but Lesley's whimpering voice just drove Daisy on as the squeak of a chew toy will drive a dog on.
"Juan and I share everything and that includes you now, Gringa!"
Lesley gasped, realizing what was happening and that there was nothing she could do.
"I think I will call you Legsley." Daisy stated, as she continued to work the soft flesh on the back of Lesley's legs and ass.
Finally, Daisy's right leg pushed Lesley's right leg up from behind and Daisy was able to sink her fingers deep into Lesley's snatch.
Daisy removed her fingers and tasted them, then she grabbed Lesley's pretty face, forcing Lesley to smell and taste them as well.
Daisy pressed the side of her face to Lesley's face, their hair intermingled black to blonde.
Daisy whispered into Lesley's ear. "I am going to take you now Legsley."
Juan was coming out now to end this but Daisy swung Lesley around so that Lesley faced Juan and the crowd. Lesley's legs were completely unsteady as Daisy held Lesley up like a trophy.
Being helpless made Lesley appear even more beautiful and sexy. With her lips parted and her big blue eyes pleading, Lesley looked almost angelic.
In front of Juan and the crowd, Daisy tore Lesley's top open. The buttons flew in all directions. Daisy then made short work of Lesley's bra. Lesley's breasts cascaded out. It was a beautiful milky white sight and the men locked the door; they wanted to see what would happen next.
Daisy cupped her hands roughly over Lesley's now exposed breasts and led the helpless blonde up onto the stage.
There, Daisy laid Lesley down on her back and quickly tore at the rest of Lesley's clothes. Finally, the beautiful blonde woman lay naked in a pile of blue rags beneath her tormentor who now straddled Lesley.
"You blonde girls are SO hot but you can't defend yourself for shit."
Daisy then opened the fabric covering her own vagina. She pulled the bottom of her teddy up exposing her own beautiful ass.
Daisy pulled Lesley's beautiful face up into her crotch, Lesley's blue eyes looked innocent against Daisy's black bush. Lesley's voice was muffled. Lesley's legs swung from side to side as she struggled to get away. Daisy turned back occasionally to look at Lesley's long body.
"Your eyes look innocent don't they Legsley but look at those legs and that ass. You are not innocent!"
Daisy then moved quickly to lay on top of Lesley. She pushed Lesley's legs apart with her strong hips and began kissing her deeply. Lesley was bucking beneath her to no avail.
In her one moment of successful self defense, Lesley managed to pull down Daisy's top, raking one of the brunette beauty's brown breasts.
Daisy took it in stride and quickly removed what was left of her own clothing.
"So you want to have fun huh, pretty girl?", Daisy stated over a prone Lesley as Daisy pinned Lesley's wrists and lay back on top of her.
Lesley's very erect pink nipples dueled with Daisy's very erect brown nipples as the two women's breasts sank into one another's.
Daisy's anger began to sink into undiluted desire for Lesley's blonde body as she began to kiss Lesley more passionately. All the while, Daisy felt all up and down Lesley's long white supple body.
Lesley tried to scream but the scream was lost in Daisy's open mouth. Lesley's voice only vibrated against Daisy's lips and it felt delicious. Lesley's breath on Daisy's face felt like heaven.
Daisy turned abruptly and slowly opened Lesley's legs. Lesley did not dare resist now. Preparing to do a scissors, Daisy very slowly opened her own legs and slid her snatch toward Lesley's.
Daisy grabbed Lesley's wrists and pulled Lesley's vagina toward her own. Daisy pushed hard into Lesley's womanhood again and again.
Lesley gasped at each push.
Then Daisy began to grind her vagina softly against Lesley's
The crowd heard the rustling of black bush on blond bush and the smacking of wet vulva. They were mesmerized by the entwined brown and white thighs.
Daisy raised herself so that she was sitting almost atop Lesley. Daisy held more firmly to Lesley's wrists to keep Lesley pinned. She skillfully began moving her vulva so that her clitoris made small slow circles over Lesley's vulva. With every circle, Lesley could feel Daisy's clitoris making a sliding contact with her own.
Daisy made certain that the contact was slow, firm and regular.
Daisy looked down at the beautiful body that she was now captaining as Lesley twisted beneath her.
Lesley's back began to arch a bit and in her twisting, Daisy delighted in watching Lesley's breasts quiver. Lesley's pink nipples were like rocks now
Lesley's breath became deeper and more rhythmic. Her head twisted from side to side now. Her face betrayed something that looked at first like pain.
Lesley began to moan in high feminine squeals as Daisy reacted in lower yet feminine moans.
Lesley felt a rush of moistness that made everything feel exactly right.
Against everything that she wanted to feel, Lesley was feeling a rush in her mid section as she slowly gave into an orgasm.
Feeling the vibrating vagina against her own, Daisy fell back and let herself go as well and the two women writhed together all over the stage.
Daisy so wished that she had a strap on dildo now but settled for simply caressing Lesley's beautiful long legs as they run up from Daisy's crotch past her stomach over her breasts to her face.
So full white and soft!
Daisy saw her own beautiful legs dark against Lesley's white body.
Lesley touched Daisy's thighs much more tentatively.
Daisy had humiliated Lesley.
Now Daisy stood up, towering over Lesley, her hands on her hips. She surveyed Lesley's beautiful naked body lying in the fetal position on the stage. Lesley's beautiful breasts were still heaving from the event.
This was the body that Juan had cheated on her with.
The anger returned.
Daisy descended upon Lesley again and kissed her violently. Daisy's hands roamed wildly all over Lesley's beautiful white body as if Daisy owned it. Lesley could only whimper now.
Lesley screamed as Daisy sunk her mouth onto Lesley's left breast and once again Daisy pushed her ass between Lesley's long sexy legs.
Daisy raised herself on one elbow and leaned into Lesley's face, her mouth perhaps one inch from Lesley's. Both women's breath intermingled in the space between.
Daisy lifted Lesley's head gently, forcing Lesley to rest on her elbows.
Lesley moaned helplessly. Her head fell back, her eyes wide, her lips parted, her blond hair between Daisy's fingers.
"I got what I wanted Legsley!"
Daisy then leaped up and dressed quickly.
She looked back one more time to see the beautiful body she had ravaged and then never looked back again as she went straight to her car and drove away from the club, forever.

Scuba/Snorkeling Alternatives
Excursions - Moderate Active
Cozumel Whale Shark Snorkel from Holbox
This is an excellent day trip for Cozumel visitors who want to snorkel with whale sharks and visit Isla Holbox at the same time. Isla Holbox is considered the original home of the whale sharks and all of the whale shark snorkel trips used to originate out of this island. But over the years the whale shark population has grown and moved and is now accessible from both Holbox and Cancun.
A day trip to visit Isla Holbox and snorkel with whale sharks will take you on a journey through the Yucatan peninsula and then on to Isla Holbox where the snorkel adventure will begin.
Offering the only highly personalized service for this lengthy but amazing adventure to Holbox, this whaleshark tour provider has the "inside track" on finding whalesharks from family who actually live right in the area where the whalesharks congregate!
Experience this once in a lifetime opportunity to snorkel with whale sharks known as gentle giants of the sea. The Mexican Caribbean is home to this mysterious wonder of nature July through September as whale sharks migrate through the area.
The adventure begins bright and early as guests meet their guide for departure to the mainland. On the mainland guests are transported by comfortable vehicles with A/C to the coastal departure point for the whaleshark expedition. A friendly guide accompanies everyone throughout the entire day's journey to point out the highlights of the expedition as well as to share information about these remarkable whale sharks.
Once at the coastal departure point, guests will board a panga type fishing boat which will travel to the Open Ocean Natural Reserve. This is where the high concentration of plankton annually attracts the whale sharks for feeding, mating and basking in the shallows below the surface. When the whale sharks are spotted participants enter the water a few at a time and get to snorkel and swim alongside these gentle giants of the sea. Other participants will be busy taking pictures or video from on board the boat. After the encounter, guests enjoy some soft drinks as the boat heads for a typical Caribbean fishing village where there will be about 1 hour of free time to enjoy a buffet lunch and wander around to interact with the people or bargain for treasures before heading back to Cozumel.

Less than an hour ago, I booked a dolphin swim package through your website. You have already confirmed my order with exactly what we wanted! I was really in a panic because when I tried to book directly through the Dolphin website, they said there was nothing available. I had read great things about your company on the on one of the popular message boards. I have to agree they are true! Thanks so much for your prompt service! I know this experience will be a great memory for my kids!

Sherri ~ WOW!!! We just returned from our cruise! What a wonderful time we had!! Your COZUMELINSIDER.com bookings for our Dolphin snorkel adventure and Sea Trek were the highlight of the cruise. They were easy and saved us about half the cost of booking through the cruise line. We simply hopped into a cab and spent the day at the Park (we could have spent a week there.) They were even able to work us into the Sea Trek early. All the people were friendly, helpful and overall just treated us great. While we were standing around waiting a short little man came up and ask if we wanted a snorkel tour. I instantly remembered what you had said and looked at his name tag. It was Mario! His tour was fantastic! If you see him ask him if he remembers Señor Ed and his family (he never caught that my name was Ted, but thats okay!) I had a waterproof digital camera and he snapped lots of pictures of us. We had a wonderful time and much of it was thanks to you, your website and staff!
I know you probably get lots of pictures but I had to send you three. Look at the smiles on my boys faces. That says it all! Thank you so much for all your help and advice. We cant wait to return. Your website is the first place we will stop! I wish we could have met in person. We will next time!

Derrick and I had a great time. We got our fill of diving. On the 4th day in fact, I was so tuckered out, I didn't think I would make it, but we persevered and did all 15 tanks of your ISLAMAR/DIVE PARADISE Dive Package B! The break in the sun was exactly what the doctor ordered ..rest assured, you have my business in the future and I'm glad to have been lucky enough to have found someone who is renowned for their business acumen and operates with such respected integrity in the community. Thanks again for everything that you did Sherri!
R. Dugan ~ Plano, TX
Sherri, I was browsing Cozumel Websites the last few days. I came across yours. I have never found a website so detailed to a destination in my life! You supply all the information a traveler could ever want!
You give us how to get there, what to do while we are there, where to stay, how to travel, what to do if we get sick, where to eat, and it just goes on and on!
Thank you for taking the time that you spent in making this my new favorite site!
I wish every vacation destination had a site like this! BRAVO!
Jim Piere ~ Simi Valley CA 93063
Just wanted to sayThank You for your webcam. We Love Cozumel and miss it so much. It is nice to be able to look at the webcam every day and see what is happening and the beautiful water. Your website has also been very helpful when planning our trips. Keep up the good work.

In order to capture his best version of Jimi Hendrix for an upcoming biopic, Andre 3000 said he had to think of him as a regular dude and not a rock star.
"I didn't look at him as an icon because when you're in it, you don't know you're an icon. You don't know you're an icon until other people say you're an icon," the 37-year-old said in an interview Tuesday.
"So I had to take it as a person, you know what I mean? And I just tried to say, 'Well, what would Jimi want people to know that they can't get off of YouTube?' And that's how I approached it," he said.
Hendrix died at age 27 in 1970. He was ranked No. 1 on Rolling Stone magazine's greatest guitarists of all-time list. His band, the Jimi Hendrix Experience, is known for iconic albums such as "Electric Ladyland" and "Are You Experienced."
"All Is by My Side," which focuses on the early days of Hendrix's career, will be released next year. Andre 3000 is excited to see the film, which he's finished shooting in Ireland. He believes the public "will be pleased."
Andre 3000, one-half of OutKast with Big Boi, has been out of the music scene in recent years, although he's been featured on songs by Beyonce, Frank Ocean, Rick Ross, Ke$ha and Young Jeezy.
OutKast's 2006 platinum-selling album, "Idlewild," which accompanied a film of the same name starring the duo, was their last album. Their 11-time platinum "Speakerboxxx/The Love Below" won the 2004 Grammy Award for Album of the Year.
Big Boi, who released a solo album two years ago to welcoming reviews, will release a new solo disc, "Vicious Lies and Dangerous Rumors," next month.
But Andre 3000 isn't in a rush to record an album.
"Some days I feel like I'll do it, some days I don't. Some days I feel like I don't need to, some days I feel like I want to do it before I die. So, I don't know where to fall. I am just hoping one day I get that inspiration," he said at an event for Gillette's eMO'gency Styler Tour, which supports men's health and prostate cancer programs. The tour kicked off in New York, with stops scheduled in Chicago and Houston.
"It's a feeling for me. Like, I can't just throw out an album to be rapping," he said. "And I don't even know if it will be rap. I don't even know what it will be."
However, he could find the inspiration and complete an album in just a few days: "It could be a rush situation. Like, if I feel that feeling and I record an album in three days and I'm like, 'This is what I want to say right now' -- that can happen, too."

Anything to disparage the winning-est coach in the nation's toughest football conference over the past 7 years, eh, SI?
Great "journalism." Grow up. You're a shell of a once truly great publication.
How's that Oklahoma State story holding up?
First off, I'm just going to transcribe this because it's important to do so.
"Good afternoon. Just want to remind everybody that it's Columbus Day. All those of you that know Italians, and like Italians, or the people that might venture onto a ship and travel, to explore and find new lands, this is your day. So it's not St. Paddy's day. That's a different day entirely."
Okay, now what to make of this. My personal feelings about Christopher Columbus and Columbus Day notwithstanding, I guess it is good to be celebrating people who like to be on boats and people who like to explore and people who are Italian and people who like people who are Italian. And Miles is absolutely right in asserting that Columbus Day is not St. Patrick's Day.
St. Patrick's Day is not during football season for a number of reasons, most notably because having St. Patrick's Day during football season might bring about the end of civilization as we know it.
Here is a list of other days that Oct. 14, 2013 was not:
• My birthday
• My dog's birthday
• Christmas
• Saturday
• Tomorrow
• National Taco Day
• National Hot Dog Day
• May Day
• Transformers Awareness Day
• Thanksgiving
• Ingrid Bergman's birthday
Here is a list of other days that Oct. 14, 2013 actually was:
• Roger Moore's birthday
• The 105th anniversary of the last time the Cubs won the World Series
• The 51-year mark since the start of the Cuban Missile Crisis
• The one-year anniversary of that guy who jumped from space
• The birthday of poet e.e. cummings (his middle name was Estlin and he was great)
I hope this cleared things up. Someday, when we have a history book co-authored by Miles and Mike Leach, all of this will be taught in schools nationwide.

< Return To Hearing
Mr. Dan EichenlaubJuly 5, 2006
Testimony by Dan Eichenlaub July 5, 2006 Good Morning Chairman Specter and members of the Senate Judiciary Committee. My name is Dan Eichenlaub. My brothers and I started Eichenlaub Inc., our Pittsburgh-based landscape contracting company, in 1974, and the business has grown ever since. The green industry, including landscape contractors, nurseries, and garden centers is the fastest growing segment of Pennsylvania agriculture, and now represents $5.6 billion of economic impact in the Commonwealth. Nationally, we stand at nearly $150 billion. My association -- the Pennsylvania Landscape & Nursery Association, and our federal partner, the American Nursery & Landscape Association -- have both worked hard to find a comprehensive solution to our nation's immigration crisis. This crisis includes problems with the H-2B visa for seasonal labor. For five years I have been using the H-2B visa program to obtain workers for positions with my company for which I have been unable to find local workers. The H-2B program was designed for seasonal industries as diverse as landscape contracting, food processing including fisheries, tourism, forestry and the firefighter crews who protect our forests, hospitality, including those on staff with our national parks, and even America's national pastime played by minor league baseball teams. These many seasonal industries have unique needs and special challenges in attracting and retaining a workforce. The program represents a critical component of the success of my company, and provides workers that I cannot find in my region of the state. That in turn allows me to create and maintain some year-round jobs for Pennsylvanians in landscape design, sales, and office management. I can tell you, without hesitation, that there are not enough native-born, available American workers to fully staff and grow my business. This is hot, physically demanding seasonal work. Entry-level agricultural and manual jobs are, quite frankly, not the ambition of most young Americans. Unconvinced? Witness the requirements of the H-2B program: I must advertise in the Pittsburgh papers to attempt to fill an open position with an American worker. If I cannot find an American worker to do the job, I can apply for an H-2B visa. The H-2B program requires me to pay a federally-mandated rate that is higher than minimum wage. Due to program limitations, especially the artificial cap on allowable visas, I risk investing time and money in a worker who may not obtain authorization to return next season. If the cap is left artificially low, a black market for unauthorized workers is unintentionally encouraged. Even with these limitations, the H-2B program at least presents an opportunity to obtain an adequate workforce. My Jamaican H-2B workers do excellent work. They are motivated, they are more than physically competent, and they have a strong work ethic. Many of my H-2B workers have been coming back for several years. These workers are like family to me and my colleagues. They like the program, which allows them to earn a good living here, and spend their winters in their homeland. We like the program, which ensures that dedicated, satisfied workers return year after year. However, the program is flawed. It is capped at a maximum of 66,000 workers per year. Two years ago, the cap hit before my workers' paperwork had been fully processed. That season I lost my workers, and I lost half a million dollars worth of business. In 2005, Congress passed the "Save our Small and Seasonal Businesses Act," legislation that greatly extended the program by exempting many returning workers from the cap. However, this was simply a one-year program extension. The return-worker exemption should be made permanent, and the cap should be altered to allow the program to realistically expand based on the needs of the American economy. The Senate has offered some relief: a three-year extension is a crucial part of the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Bill which passed the Senate in May. The Senate also provided needed solutions and reforms for the full landscape and nursery industry, including time-tested and bipartisan provisions for agriculture and the H-2A program. As you know, agriculture is the largest industry in Pennsylvania. Our nurseries, our farms, and our agri-businesses need solutions. We need to keep our workers, and we need to fix the broken visa programs and thus match willing workers with willing employers. Those of us who use and understand these programs know that they create needed legal channels for temporary workers to enter the U.S. safely and legally, contribute to our economy, and return home at the proper time. We all support secure borders. It is ludicrous to think that we can "secure our borders" without creating workable legal channels like H-2B and the proposed H-2C program. On behalf of the landscape and nursery industry, and on behalf of seasonal small businesses across the country, I call upon the House to come to the table, to work with the Senate to pass Comprehensive Immigration Reform, fix the H-2B program, and help grow our small and seasonal businesses! |

Audax is running a 1200km ride from Sydney to Melbourne this November. It has been run once before, in 2009. The time limit is 90 hours for the 1200k, which is the total elapsed time allowed, including sleeping, eating and all other non-riding time.
The second leg is 320km including 4000m of climbing (Canberra to Cooma through the Snowy Mountains), so it will certainly be a challenging event.
Details are at https://www.audax.org.au/public/index.p ... cle&id=260 and this will be expanded over time. To qualify you need to complete a 600km Audax ride between March and September (which is a good idea for training anyway).

Every time you turn on a light, odds are you have Duke Energy to thank. The Charlotte-based company provides nearly 95 percent of North Carolinians with their electricity
It has close to 8 million total customers spread across more than 100,000 square miles.
These numbers are thanks in part to Duke's $32-billion merger with the Raleigh-based Progress Energy in 2012. Industry experts say one reason we're seeing these mergers is because of how expensive it is to update aging power plants. With costs in the billions, they say one company just won't cut it anymore.
Duke Energy points out the merger aims to save customers hundreds of millions of dollars.
"We guaranteed $687 million through the first five to six years post-merger," said Mike Hughes, Duke Energy's vice president for community relations in North Carolina. "We've already achieved $185 million through the first 18 months."
Hughes added they now think they'll save customers more than $1 billion by 2017.
But critics, such as attorney John Runkle, ask, "Where are the savings for consumers? The merger was billed as a better deal for North Carolina consumers."
"Duke has gone up in rates increases in 2009, 2011 and then last year," Runkle said. "Progress had their first rate case they had in over 20 years, so the rates are going up."
Runkle represents the energy watchdog group NC WARN, which is still in the process of appealing against the merger.
"A lot of low-income people are hurting now just because of the rate increases," he said.
For instance, last year's rate increase means that after September 2015, your average monthly bill will go up about $7.50.
In the end, NC WARN estimates the merger will cost consumers billions because of repairs to damaged plants in other states. These are costs the group says Duke Energy didn't fully disclose in merger hearings.
"There were hidden costs that were part of the process that never came to light," Runkle said.
"By state law, we have the opportunity to recoup those costs," said Hughes, the Duke Energy spokesman. "So I don't buy into the argument that the merger is creating any additional costs."
Asked about Duke Energy's transparency surrounding the merger, Hughes said, "There was certainly a heightened sensitivity to how the merger, the days after the merger, and some of the boardroom intrigue, how that played out. I think the company recognizes there are things that could have gone much more smoothly."
That "boardroom intrigue" was the abrupt resignation of the new company's CEO Bill Johnson immediately after the merger. That took people outside of Duke Energy -- including the North Carolina Utilities Commission -- by surprise.
The Commission investigated the resignation. Shortly after its settlement with Duke Energy
Duke Energy chief executive Jim Rogers told The Charlotte Observer he"personally negotiated the settlement terms with [utilities] commission chairman Edward Finley."
Critics, such as NC WARN, maintain that that type of negotiation between those two was inappropriate.
The North Carolina attorney general's office investigated the merger and was in agreement with its settlement. However, the attorney general is contesting three separate rate hikes by the combined Duke-Progress right now.
Despite all this, Hughes said Duke Energy is working to improve its public image.
"I think we have worked very hard over the last 18 months to rebuild trust where we had created some trust issues," Hughes said.
That includes their investing about $16 million statewide. Three million of those dollars alone are in Raleigh. It's an increase the Greater Raleigh Chamber of Commerce estimates to be 50 percent more than what Progress had invested before the merger.
Runkle said bigger isn't necessarily better for customers.
"It's 95 percent of the people of North Carolina, which is kind of incredible," Runkle said about Duke Energy's share of the market. "[It's] the only game in town for most about everybody."
"We know being large in and of itself is not always necessarily a good thing," Hughes said. "But we're leveraging that size in becoming the best."
Merger's impact on Raleigh
The merger of the two utilities had an impact on Raleigh. Duke Energy has about 2,000 employees in Wake County with half of those in downtown Raleigh. Overall, that's down from a high of approximately 3,000 workers in the year before the merger.
Most of the positions transferred to Charlotte are in the legal department, human resources and accounting. However, storm response and distribution still are headquartered in Raleigh.

* May 31, 2013: AG Cooper will appeal recent Duke Energy Progress rate hike
* June 12, 2013: Deal lets Duke Energy raise rates $200 million a year

New York Fed Provides Update on Regional Economy and Insight on Recent Job Creation |
August 12, 2011
NEW YORK—The Federal Reserve Bank of New York today presented an update on the regional economy and analysis on job creation in the region, including insight on what type of jobs are being created and the potential long term effects. The presentations were part of the New York Fed's Regional Economy Press Briefing series. Regional Economy Regional housing markets, meanwhile, appeared to be firming during the second quarter, but remain fragile. Home prices in New York State, New York City and New Jersey increased modestly during the second quarter, compared to the ongoing decline experienced in the nation overall. Pockets of stress remain in the region, however, especially in and around New York City where delinquency rates remain elevated. "The economic recovery in our region continued at a slow pace during the second quarter of 2011, with much of the region performing reasonably well compared with the nation as a whole," said William C. Dudley, president and chief executive officer of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. "Also, despite weak labor market conditions overall, some sectors are enjoying robust growth in the region. In particular, the professional and business services and education and health sectors have continued to add jobs." Job Creation Despite slow overall regional job growth, some areas of the economy are expanding and adding jobs. Recent regional job creation has been almost evenly balanced between restoring jobs lost during the recession and creating new jobs that will help transform the economy. New job growth has tended to be in high-skill sectors (including health care and education), as measured by college degrees. Meanwhile, firms in administrative support and professional services have been rehiring employees. These sectors are likely to add back employees who once occupied similar positions with similar skill sets. Finally, jobs in construction and manufacturing have been shrinking, both during the recession and recovery. These sectors were hit particularly hard during the recession and have yet to start rehiring. As a result, past employees in these sectors may have to learn new skills or otherwise find jobs in different industries. For additional analysis and data presented during the briefing, visit: Regional Economic Briefing on Job Creation in the Region.

I've got the project salvo and I'm looking to upgrade. I'm getting a vertical grip, some sort of sight, a 20 in. barrel, a new hopper and a cyclone feed. Is there anything else I'll need to make the function properly and make sure nothing will obstruct the sights. I've heard that the sight needs to raised to make aiming easier with the mask on. All and any help will be appreciated.
This is my first post.

Medical University of South Carolina Compounding Project
Members from the student NCPA chapter at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) joined their colleagues from Christian Pharmacist Fellowship International (CPFI) in providing medications for a medical mission trip to Haiti. Over a two hour span on a sunny morning, the students compounded over 30 pounds of 10% Sulfur ointment to be transported to Haiti along with other medical supplies and volunteers. The Sulfur ointment is used for healing various dermatological conditions with the most prominent of those being scabies. The need was exposed when our advisor Dr. Ronald Nickel participated on a mission trip to Haiti. He informed our chapter that the volunteers were going to try to make the ointment on site, but it was determined that using the acquired knowledge and training of the pharmacy students would provide an easier solution. Chewable multivitamins were also included in the shipment to provide more nutrition for the children of Haiti. All the supplies were transported to Florida and will accompany two mission trips to the devastated country. The NCPA chapter provided lunch for the group and the College Deans also stopped by for a few minutes to observe. It was an excellent opportunity for our future pharmacists to join forces and utilize their skills to offer a contribution during a time of turmoil.

Note: The use of foreign language interpreters for any commercial driver's license (CDL) knowledge or skills test is not permiteed. Foreign language interpreters may also not assist with any noncommercial Class A or B knowledge or skills test.
How do I complete an MVA transaction if I am deaf or severely hearing impaired?
Call the MVA Customer Service Center or TTY/Hearing Impaired number to ask for the assistance of an interpreter. Note that the MVA's Driver Services Division will make all arrangements and pay for the interpreter. They will ask you for the date, time and location of the branch office where you plan to visit.

Be sure to bring with you all of the documents required for the transaction.
- There are no MVA fees associated with the use of an interpreter. For information about the different licensing transaction fees, see Driver Licensing fees.
- The MVA does not pay the interpreter fee for foreign language interpreters if a fee is charged. The customer is responsible for any fees charged.
- If you are hearing impaired, the MVA will pay the interpreter fee and set up the test appointment for you. Please contact the MVA Customer Service Center at 1-410-768-7000 or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com for additional information.

Physiology- Conducting or conducted inward or toward something (for nerves, the central nervous system; for blood vessels, the organ supplied). The opposite of efferent.More example sentences
- Cough is mediated by the interaction of sensory afferent nerves, central cough reflexes, and local axon reflexes.
- In addition, the dorsal central column of primary afferent fibers within the spinal cord appears susceptible to the inhibitory effects of hypoxia in rats.
- Sensory systems are generally presumed to convey peripheral afferent signals to the central nervous system with a high degree of fidelity.
Back to top- An afferent nerve fiber or vessel.More example sentences
- It may also be the site of projection of proprioceptive afferents from the respiratory muscles and chest wall.
- In addition, cholinergic afferents can be stimulated by a variety of mediators involved in allergen-induced airway inflammation.

susan- Regarding Henry Flagler, while he became a very rich man, he did not gain this wealth as a result of the Civil War. During that time, he operated a salt mining company, but when the demand for salt dropped when the war ended, his company was bankrupted. But perhaps in that capacity he contributed more to the society than he could have by joining the military. Flagler met John D. Rockefeller as a result of being in the grain business, which Rockefeller was in before going into oil. Flagler helped Rockefeller with financing as a result of his ability to borrow money from rich relatives. Flagler ended up in Florida because of the illness of his first wife. He built a famous hotel in St. Augustine. He expanded his holdings in the hotel business and prospered. He got into the railroad business as a means to transport people and freight to support his hotel ventures. Eventually, this was extended south and promoted foreign trade. I think that Flagler has to be given a lot of credit for promoting the development of commerce in large areas of Florida, as well as building infrastructure. No doubt this created opportunities for other Floridians. Flagler Museum - Henry Flagler Biography |

Reads as a sucessful Export from SSA, but nothing populates in Hydraflow Storm Sewers when opening the STM file exported from SSA.
maybe you could supply the exported file and the drawing file for someone to look at and see if it works for them.
Thanks dgordon. Please see STM file attached.
Here is the Export info from SSA and the version of Storm Sewers I'm using.
Hope this helps.
Dear Fred,
Thank you for your patience. I would like to inform you that the issue with nothing populated in Storm Sewers extension for any STM files exported from SSA 2012 & 2013 is a known issue to the development team and they are working to resolve the issue. Per process I will be closing this case and this does not mean your case is forgotten, but it is in pending status while the development team works on this issue. Please do not hesitate to contact us in the future with any and all questions you may have.
PS: If you still have SSA 2011 Stand-alone installed, you should be able to open any version of SSA model and export the model to STM format without any issue.

Teaching licensure in art is available as part of all degree programs.

For further information, visit the School of Art, Design and Art History website.
Degrees Offered
Declaring the Major
New Freshmen and Transfer Students All prospective freshmen, transfer, or change of major students intending to major in Graphic Design must meet JMU admission requirements as stated in the Undergraduate Catalog.

Students not accepted to the Graphic Design major will have one opportunity to reapply in the following semester or may choose other majors within the School of Art, Design and Art History.


text: Click here to read more reviews. Everyone in Trinity County is pretty much agreed that our number one attraction is our gorgeous scenery. Whether you are an admirer of fall colors or wild flowers, a kayaker or rafter, a fisherman or hunter, a hiker, a seeker of gold, a mountain climber, a mountain biker or cross country runner, an amateur (or professional) botanist, biologist, or nature photographer, you are going to love Trinity County. The next major attraction to this area is, of course, our sense of history. Although the California Gold Rush is what most people think of when they see this historic town, few know about the thousands of Chinese who lived here too, and worked the mines. The history of this area also extends back much further, of course, to the people who lived here long ago, the Nor-Rel-Muk Indians. The Jake Jackson Museum, within easy walking distance of the hotel, gives a great glimpse of the past. The Joss House, which is a Taoist temple, built by the Chinese miners, is still in use as a temple, as well as a state park with tours daily. The Trinity Theatre (trinitytheatre.com) was built in 1939, renovated and reopened two years ago by Ken Hill. It has almost become a cult experience in itself. If you don't believe me, call them at 530-623-3555. In January we celebrate Chinese New Year, a fun event with Lion Dancers, Drummers and Firecrackers along Main Street, culminating at the Joss House. Fall Festival begins October 1st with lots of local people dressing in the mode of the 1890's. The Fall Festival includes the Shangrila Music Festival, Salmon Festival and bonfire, a huge quilt show, and Halloween where local youngsters (and oldsters) dress up in costumes and trick-or-treat old town Main Street merchants. It's a hoot. Mountain Magic Christmas begins the day after Thanksgiving each year with Main Street Merchants decorating in the old fashioned style with live Christmas greenery. The town is beautiful to behold, even if it doesn't snow. Santa comes to the Band Stand in his Big Red Fire Truck and talks with all the kids about their Christmas lists. The 4th of July Celebration is another must-see-to-believe Weaverville event. Again, the Band Stand is at the center of much of the celebration with the bell-ringing, speeches, and music. There is a real small-town-U.S.A. flavor to our parade. The whole town turns out, venders set up their booths on Main Street as well as at Lowden Park where there is a Rodeo, Softball tournament, etc. And don't miss the firing of the anvil. Plus fireworks! Of course.

Terror is a hardcore band with members from Los Angeles, California and Richmond, Virginia. Their second album One with the Underdogs sold over 40,000 copies. They have toured throughout Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Korea, Mexico and South America. Their third album, Always the Hard Way reached No. 10 on Billboard Heatseekers and No. 19 on the Top Independent Records chart.
Before Terror, vocalist Scott Vogel sang for Slugfest, Despair, and for Buffalo based metalcore act Buried Alive in the mid-90's. Drummer Nick Jett and ex-guitarist Todd Jones were members of the well-known hardcore band Carry On (who had releases on Bridge Nine and Youngblood Records). Carl Schwartz, formerly of Sworn Vengeance, recorded much of Always the Hard Way after quitting the band to front First Blood full-time.
Vogel is widely known in the scene not just for his efforts to keep hardcore "pure" and "fun," but for his love of stagedives, and for his tendency for bizarre and often hilarious on-stage banter, known colloquially as "Vogelisms". Examples include: "We need to elevate the maximum stagedive potential", "Take this shit to the next level", "Who cares if you're Christian?", and "Maximum output! Activate the pit!" Terror also participated in the first two years of the Sounds of the Underground tour. Their new album due out in 2012 is to be titled "Live By The Code." "Live By The Code" was pushed back to April 2013 and will be released by Victory Records on CD and by Reaper Records for the vinyl. The band explained the decision to go with Victory on their Twitter account, Facebook account and via their official website. Terror's 2013 album "Live By The Code" was the band's first time charting on the The Billboard 200 at #121. It was also number one on the Heatseekers chart and #28 on Independent chart. LBTC sold 3,177 copies in its first week

Sadly, the two-stroke 125 is all but dead. The recent advent of credible, easy to ride and cheap to run four-strokes is killing sales of fickle, expensive smokers. Derbi's learner sportsbike gets an all-new design with a four-stroke engine for the first time, going head-to-head with Yamaha's YZF-R125.

The Suzuki RV125 VanVan is an enigmatic motorcycle, that's for sure. Farm hands, gamekeepers, race teams and surf dudes would be the ideal customers: it's perfect for whizzing around country estates, race paddocks and beaches. Fashion-conscious, retro fans must love Suzuki RV125 VanVans. Teenagers, probably, don't. Who knows? But it's still pretty cute: better than a quad or a scooter, ...
124cc, 31bhp, 101mph, Insurance group 7
Ducati-esque styling and the promise of almost 30bhp in (easily) from a de-restricted motorcycle make the Cagiva Mito 125 a real object of desire for anyone on a learner motorcycle licence. The Cagiva Mito 125 only just loses out to Aprilia's RS125 in the sex stakes.

Recirculate button
I have a 1996 Chevy Cheyenne, single cab, short bed. I was driving through some construction the other day with the windows rolled up, air conditioning on, and recirculate button light was on. I still smelled the tar like my windows were down. Is this normal or is the vent blocking outside air broken?

09-23-2012, 11:25 AM #3With recirculate on it shouldnt pick up any outside air, but if the systems doors arent closing all the way (which is a common problem after a while) you'll get outside air in the mix.

09-23-2012, 02:04 PM #5Yea a dealership should be able to fix the problem.
Have you looked under the dash and made sure everythings hooked up right and and moving like it should?
This could be as simple as a disconnect or maybe debris in the doors path etc.

I can check that. A while ago we took it in because the vent under the dash stayed open the whole time unless you turn the A/C or heater on to the upper vents. We figured out that that was normal but they said the thing that closed the vents that let outside air in was broken so that vent wasn't closing. We told them to fix that but apparently they didn't, so I will find that receipt and take it back.
