We had a great experience from start to finish, from our initial meeting to the follow up with our images! Colette addressed many of our questions and concerns with informative articles professionally and promptly. John and Colette worked with us within our timeline, offering valuable suggestions and ideas for our day. They even offered us a great deal on a second photographer!
Our images are amazing and we are excited to share them through some DIY album projects. Colette again gave us some great recommendations! Our day went by so fast, but we are so glad we have these beautiful images to look back on and remember our day!

Hiring a really good photographer was the one thing friends advised me not to skimp on, and I'm so glad I heeded their advice. John and Colette are incredibly professional and detail-oriented. I love their team approach, which allows them to capture different aspects of the event which are happening simultaneously. They are also very pleasant, warm people to be around—which is important on such a special day!
Before we met we negotiated a very clear and precise contract. About 6 months out we had an in-person consultation during which got to know each other and Colette did a trial run on hair and makeup. During the following months we were in frequent contact, going over the details of the wedding timeline so that Colette and John knew exactly what we wanted photographed and when. She emailed with my bridesmaids to be sure that they had the looks they wanted for the wedding too. On our wedding day Colette did a fantastic job on all of our hair and make-up. She made us look gorgeous, and was flexible when I changed my mind about the hairstyle I wanted at the last minute. Both John and Colette exude competence. I felt really comfortable letting them guide me in poses. They were patient when my husband and I were reluctant to leave the party to take special shots which now we are so grateful that we have (as they knew we would be). And without my being aware of it at all, they took beautiful shots of the scenery, flowers, cakes, etc… All in all, we are thrilled with their work and would recommend them highly to anyone.

I was highly impressed with John & Colette! The photos of my November Wedding turned out incredibly. The photos were not only beautiful, but appeared to be works of art.
As many brides, I had no clue of how much work and planning went into a Wedding. John & Colette met with my Fiance and I several times to go through the details and to create a timeline in order to ensure that everything ran as smooth as possible on the special day. Colette did my make-up and hair and I truly felt like a princess! I was going to cut that luxury due to budget restraints, however I am so glad that I did it, because she made me look like a movie star. The day goes by so fast and so it is crucial that the photos reflect every aspect of the "perfect" day. This incredible team will capture the beauty that radiates through you from the inside out. I highly recommend John & Colette Photography & Beauty!

John and Colette were absolutely amazing. I truly have nothing but good things to say about their photography and over all professionalism. Not only are they fantastic at what they do but flexible and caring. They captured every moment of my wedding, the smallest of details I will always have because of them!

Finding the right Photographer(s) was the highest priority task in planning my July 2011 wedding. Regardless of what lovely location, or magical gown I found, I knew those precious moments are over in a flash, and that I had better work hard to find just the right person/team to capture every last detail!
John and Colette are all that I had hoped for, and so much more! The examples in their website albums are breathtaking! Their attention to detail and ability to capture the most elusive magical moments & expressions was true to their examples. They captured virtually everyone's personality in subtle, priceless candid photos. I have past experiences at weddings with other more forceful, less charismatic photographers, and I know this can put a big dent in your special day; however EVERYONE loved John and Colette! They blended so well into our wide variety of personalities, and each picture has the feeling that it was taken by a dear member of the family. Things I appreacitated most ~ * Pre-event connections: 1. We (my fiance, Colette & John) met initially, and spent a few hours talking and getting to know each other. They are amazing human beings and a warm and welcoming couple. We had a great time chatting, and really appreaciated their great recommendations of local eateries after our meeting too! 2. Very clear contract and everything was just as promised. 3. I met with Colette for a "practice run" for Beauty (hair & make-up) - so much fun! I looked so good when I got home, my fiance took me out for an impromptu date night saying, "you look too good to just go home!" ;) 4. Many, many phone calls and emails to dial in every last detail, as well as to come up with a personalized game plan and a timeline that was perfectly aligned with that of the other vendors. 5. Final pre-event meeting to talk about the focal points and people. They really took a lot of time understanding who the key people were in our life and what the imporantat things were to capture for us! * Colette is a calming presence and a gifted artist! The "day of" is always chatoic. I know this from being a brides-maid several times over. It can get away from you quickly, and you can become frazzled easily. Colette kept me in the moment, and all while she transformed me into "The Bride"! I can not say enough about how many compliments I received on my hair and make-up... It was breathtaking, and every bride should have that experience! * John leaves no stone unturned! I am the type of person who appreciates the nature, the details, the decor, and I have the most fantastic images of it all! He finds the perfect angle and turns easily overlooked significant structures, flowers and decor into gorgeous works of art. * Flexible, patient, fun-loving! The event went off without a hitch, and largely because of the timeline they had provided. Again, everyone loved them and they did not have it easy with some of my more "difficult to round up" family members! All in all, and as I'm sure you've already gathered from the above, I very highly recommend John and Colette! A better Photography and Beauty team... you will not find!

As a bride and groom we spend so much time thinking about how to make our day feel as special as possible. But when the day comes it goes by quickly. Nothing is more dear to us than the photos John and Colette took of our wedding. Natural, calm and collected, John and Colette blended in with the crowd catching every nuance and personality of the event. It is one thing to pick a photographer based on the photos- agreeably an important part. But when your photographers personalities are calm, confident, happy, and relaxed, not only are you, the bride and groom relaxed, so are your guests. The proof is in the pictures.
Thank you John and Colette for adding so much to all our events by just being your amazing selves. We are thankful for your amazing artful eye. And the result- as the cliché goes- pictures for a lifetime.

John and Colette are an exceptional photography and beauty team, besides being warm and wonderful people. At every stage of the process -- from the first meeting at the studio to walking through our unique venue, from the engagement session to the make up trial, the wedding day, and afterward, John and Colette went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. They really take pride in their work and it shows.
For make up and hair, I didn't have very specific ideas. Colette was really patient to work with me until we got to something that I liked. I never looked too made up, which was most important to me, and it was great to have touch ups all night, especially with a 90 minute ceremony and a costume change! We had a long and chaotic Indian wedding with so much to cover, so we really needed two cameras. John and Colette seemed to love the challenge. Colette shot 'second' camera after finishing make up, and worked really well together with John. Our photographs truly captured the spirit of our day and we couldn't be happier with our choice. Like all good photographers, John and Colette have their own particular style and aesthetic, and it comes through clearly in their images. If you respond to them the way I did, then hire them and be assured you won't have to worry about a thing!

John and Colette went above and beyond to make sure that we had the best pictures we could possibly have from our big day. They were professional and experienced yet blended into our wedding with ease. We wanted to be comfortable with our photographers while at the same time we needed them to be able to take control in order to get those shots that hang on your wall for the rest of your life. John and Colette made us feel comfortable and at ease which resulted in amazing photos.
When you pick a photographer you are picking someone who is going to capture an important moment in your life. They are invited into your personal space and sharing in those moments with you. You want them to see those moments but let them organically happen. I couldn't have asked for two people more at ease, skilled and able to do just that. It was also important that we have two photographers that could shoot from different angles while events were taking place simultaneously. We had a large wedding and having two photographers helped us to capture so many of our friends and family. Colette did my bridal hair and makeup. It was important to me that I looked like the freshest and prettiest version of myself. I wanted classic timeless beauty and Colette completely understood my vision. She takes the time to work with you on your "look" before the big day. I have had my hair and makeup done for many weddings and Colette was the first person who actually listened to what I wanted and helped me to improve upon it. We were sent a CD of all of our pictures after the wedding and I also used the website provided by John and Colette to order prints. The quality of the prints was outstanding and I would recommend ordering from this website.

John's photography was my and now my husband's favorite when we started looking for our destination wedding. From the first time I spoke with Colette she was very kind, helpful, and professional. Her response time to email and phone calls was extremely timely.
We met them 2 days before the wedding in Montana and I never doubted they would deliver. John had already been to the wedding venue and found great ideas for places to shot pictures. During my beauty run through and morning of the ceremony Colette ended up meeting most of both of our families and friends. She remained very professional but fit right in. Having Colette do my make-up and hair and then my two Matrons of Honor the morning of the wedding was such a relief. Throughout the wedding Colette was more then willing to touch up my hair and lips as needed. Which was amazing since the wind was blowing and the wedding was outside. Once Colette was done with my hair she picked up a camera and was the second photographer. She does an amazing job taking pictures and offered a different view from John's. Her versatility makes them a wonderful duo. They were around us for 12 hours and never once were in the way. The groom would agree! Both fathers were impressed by how much they "worked" that day. I can't describe to you how amazing the photos turned out to be, but I can say that I will never regret choosing them to shot our wedding day. I would hire them again in an instant.

I really appreciate the work of John and Colette did in my wedding. They are great couple with professional attitude. They arrived earlier in order to get to know the whole place, wedding party and family members, which makes the whole photography process smoothly and comfortable.
And, they are not just professionals, but also act like families. I was about to cry when I heard my decoration person was late, and every one was waiting for my groom who was stucked on the freeway...the wedding is about to start in 3 hours, I totally freaked out and Colette was putting those pretty make up on me but I could not stop my tears...then Colette told me her story, and how she was not able to enjoy the whole thing because of unsettled concerns--She told me I need to be a pretty bride and enjoy every moment of my wedding no matter what happend. It really SAVED me. And she even encouraged me to write my hubby a note to comfort him....It turns out perfect and wonderful. It was the most beautiful day in my life. THANKS.

If you are looking for a very genuine, friendly, easy to work with, and an amazing team of photographers then you should look no further than John and Colette. They are very professional and one of the greatest couples we ever got the pleasure to meet and work with. They were very easy to talk to, and when my wife and I discussed with them the kind of photos we wanted, they happily obliged and talked about what they could do. They are extremely professional and everything we had asked for, we received with amazing results. We had our engagement photos taken at the Griffith Park Observatory. My wife and I were very nervous as we've never had our photos taken professionally before, but John and Colette were able to break us out of our shell and we began really enjoying ourselves. The photos turned out amazing, and we couldn't wait to see how wonderful our wedding photos would be. Sure enough, when the wedding day came we were not disappointed at all. We hired Colette to do my wife's makeup and hair so she wouldn't have to worry about driving all over the place to get everything done that day. When I got to see her up at the alter, I was floored by how amazing she looked. Colette did an amazing job, and her many years of experience really shows. Family, friends, and other guests at the wedding were very happy and enjoyed themselves with John and Colette as they took pictures of them having a wonderful time. I highly recommend them, they are a wonderful pair of photographers and overall some amazing people to get to know.

John & Colette were so much fun to work with. I was so amazed by how beautiful our engagement pictures turned out that when it came time to see our wedding pictures, John & Colette took my breath away. The pictures were so beautiful and captured each amazing moment of our day. We received so many compliments from our family & friends. Other wedding photographers only photograph for a certain number of hours but John & Colette were there from morning until the very last minute. Colette did my hair and make-up. I felt like a STAR!!! Later in the evening, Colette also grabbed a camera and started shooting pictures so we ended up having 3 wedding photographers! How awesome is that!!!!
As you can see, all of the reviews on John & Colette have been 5 stars so don't look any further and call them NOW!!!!!

John and Colette are an amazing team. The pictures are absolutely amazing and we just love them! Colette is a makeup artist to the stars who will do amazing work for you and your maids. She does trial runs as well so you get a chance to see the final product before the day of and you can make any adjustments to it right there. John is the "lead" photographer and is incredible. Both of them do commercials and film work all the time, so they GET IT. Once the party starts Colette picks up a camera as well and you get two photographers for one! And they are AWESOME. They have great ideas to make the pictures meaningful, more like a story in pictures than just posed grinning traditional pictures. They are truly people I would recommend to ANYONE. They are people you WANT at your party as well as photographers who will catch it all and make it beautiful for your wedding. The price is a little higher than just one photographer, but you get two photographers and your hair and makeup done BEAUTIFULLY. I can't tell you what a joy it was having them at our wedding and how incredible the pictures turned out. Book them! Book them! Book them!

John and Colette were amazing throughout the entire wedding process. Not only were we so thrilled with our engagement pictures, but if it is even possible, we were even more amazed with our wedding pictures. They captured our day perfectly. I have seen soo many other pictures that are completely overprocessed, but John and Colette's work is absoluely beautiful without all of the crazy gimics that a lot of photographers use. We will enjoy our pictures for many years to come and will always look at them and be able to remember exactly how we felt that day, which is more that I could ever ask for.
Not only were our pictures great, but Colette's beauty services were amazing. She went above and beyond to make sure that I was completely satisified with my hair and make-up, and I was! It turned out amazing, exactly what I wanted. And what was even more special was she was there all night to touch up, I felt like a princess!!!!! I can't say enough about John and Colette, they are always accessible and there to answer any questions you may have. I never had any issues getting a hold of them. They are a dream to work with! We hope to have the opportunity to work with both of them again! Thank you John and Colette for being apart of our day! Sarah and Keith

John and Colette were amazing and wonderful. Our pictures were amazing and all our guests agreed. My make-up and hair was exactly what I imagined and Colette made-up my mom and she looked beautiful. I loved that they worked as a team and I (being a worried bride) didn't have to worry about anything.

I wanted to get these for a while. They are very cute and look exactly as pictured. I don't know if they have enough WOW factor for their price though. This is the only reason I might be returning them, otherwise very nice pair.

Perfect shade of coral!
Butterfly Blossoms Save the Date Magnets My wedding colors are green and coral and it's often difficult to find the right shade of coral and I was more than pleased with this one. I made the background gray and the text green and I forgot to change the leaves to the color that was labeled as coral and I'm so glad I made that mistake! The colors were great and the quality of the magnets are awesome. Customer service was also great! I called them when I thought I made a mistake with the coloring and they were so helpful in confirming the shade of coral.
Came out great!

In one of the pictures I chose, there was a parasail in the back ground above my fiance' head but Magnet Street was able to erase that right out of the picture and you would never even know it was there. Because we had such a wonderful experience with Magnet Street we will want to order our formal invitations as well. We will tell everyone how great Magnet Street was for us. Thank you so much! :0)

From the HSLDA E-lert Service: |
Date: From: Subject: | 11/8/2002 4:50:22 PM Home School Legal Defense Association Maryland--Board of Education Tries to Change Homeschool Regulations Without Consulting Homeschoolers |
---------------------------------------------------------------------- From the HSLDA E-lert Service... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- November 8, 2002 Dear HSLDA Members and Friends, Common sense and general civility would dictate that if a governmental entity wants to change rules, the first thing it should do is communicate with those who would be affected by the changes. Unfortunately, the Maryland State Department of Education (MDOE) has begun the process for changing homeschool regulations without consulting home school organizations. The MDOE has proposed a rule that would require that the assurance of consent notice be filed every year. Currently, a notice is filed only once, at the beginning of the home school program. This change would cause a tremendous increase in unnecessary paperwork for home school families. It would also increase the cost of administering the law, which would be borne by all taxpayers. The full text of the proposed regulation may be found at: https://constmail.gov.state.md.us/comar/dsd_web/mdregister_web/mdregis ter.htm (scroll down and click on the link "Volume 29, Issue 21, October 18, 2002," then plug "home instruction" into search box). HSLDA has notified the MDOE that we will not accept the legitimacy of a rule drafted before receiving the input of home school organizations. We have given the MDOE two recommendations: first, withdraw the proposed rule (as Maryland State Government Code sec.10-116 allows); and second, appoint a task force composed of representatives of homeschool organizations and others for the purpose of looking at the issues. Open, honest communication must precede any effort to change the regulations. We hope and pray that officials will demonstrate respect for homeschool families and honor these recommendations. If not, we will let you know immediately and recommend action. Very truly yours, Scott A.

A Look Inside A Microserver-Powered Data Center
March 22nd, 2011 By: Rich Miller
What does a microserver-driven data center look like? This morning Dell's Data Center Solutions group rolled out a new line of microservers optimized for web hosting companies. Microservers provide groups of dedicated compute nodes for scenarios where multi-core CPU architecture and extensive virtualization aren't effective solutions. As Dell's microserver design evolved, one of the primary customers for its offering was Online.net, a large hosting company based in France. Each system runs one OS and app per server, has one 1 CPU per server and features 12 servers per chassis (see Barton George's blog post for more details). The end result is a data center with an unusual appearance. It takes a couple of minutes to warm up, but gets interesting at about the 1:30 mark. This video runs about 11 minutes.
For more coverage of server form factors and designs, see our Servers Channel. For additional videos, check out our DCK video archive and the Data Center Videos channel on YouTube.

Sermon Notes 08-21-11am
1 John 2:25
Intro: Booker T. Washington, in his book Up from Slavery, described Meeting an ex-slave from Virginia.
- Contract, promised to buy himself from his owner at a yearly rate, working wherever he desired…Ohio
- Two years later, Emancipation Proclamation, Slaves Free!
- Still he honored the Contract, … he walked to Virginia and put the last dollar in his former owner's hands.
- I know I did not have to pay, but I gave my word; and my word has never been broken!
t/s – The Power of a Promise. Especially from a Person of Character.
Our Text today deals with Promise, a Promise Made!
1 John 2:25 (walking through 1 John… build faith on Word)
Note: "Promise" repeated… Noun and verb….Promise He Promised.
The One making the promise is emphatic…He Himself (Jesus)
I find a tendency to misunderstand — maybe under-understand — this Promise as a promise that one day when we die we will go to heaven.
Eternal Life is Much More than Life that Lasts Forever.
Understanding how John uses Eternal Life is a key to understanding the Good News of Jesus and all the Promises of God!
Eternal Life is New Life from God. New life that changes me through the power of Jesus!
This New Life Lasts forever!
Mistake = Salvation is living this same old rotten (empty, weak & alienated) life with a Ticket for heaven tucked away in my pocket.
Truth = Salvation is New Life (quality and quantity)
Marks of the New Life (Eternal Life) from 1 John 1-2
a) We Embrace the Truth about Jesus and myself (Doctrinal)
b) We Live Right, Like Jesus (Moral)
c) We Love People (Social)
New Beliefs, New Behavior, New Relationships!… Power Within!
This New Life Last Forever!
Point: We need more than Life that Last Forever!
t/s – Thoughtful people have always understood this…
ILL – Greek Myth of Tithonos (Tennyson wrote a Poem)
- Request made for Immortality (Life Forever)
- Zeus granted the request quickly…wry grin
- Forgot to request eternal youth… Tithonos aged forever without Dying!
- Last we hear…. Shut away, unable to move, speak, think…
We need more than life that lasts forever. We Need New Life!
Romans 6:23 – Matters of Life and Death
Death = Physical and spiritual…. Alienation and degradation
Life = Reconciliation and Regeneration…. New Birth!
"Eternal Life" most famously used in John 3:16…Story that is Context
Ill – Nicodemus Story…. Born Again!
Not Information, Not Reformation, Transformation!
Eternal Life!
App – Will I Go to Heaven When I Die? (wrong question)
Do I Have New Life from Jesus? (Testimony?)
1 John 2:25 (Read Together)
Can you count on His Promise?
- He Is Willing (Cross)
- He Is Able (Resurrection)

Pemberton's Yuki Tsubota earned a surprise silver in women's slopestyle at the season's lone winter Dew Tour stop, helping the Canadian freestyle ski team to five medals during the iON Mountain Championships at Breckenridge, Colo.
Kaya Turski took the victory in Sunday's (Dec. 16) final and Tsubota made it a one-two finish for Canada in windy and cold conditions, adding to the national halfpipe team's three-medal total from Friday (Dec. 14).
Tsubota travelled to the event as the fourth alternate. She left with one of the podium finishes needed for early Olympic qualification.
"I'm just, like, blown away," said the 19-year-old, who qualified fifth on Saturday (Dec. 15) for the six-skier final. "Coming into the competition as an alternate and then coming second was really big for me.
"I guess this means there's a chance for me to make the Olympics. It feels so much closer now. Before this comp I was kind of stressing but it's really realistic for me now. I'm happy and I'm so grateful for all my support from home, I couldn't be here without them."
Turski scored an 87.25 to run away with the final, while Tsubota's 72.25 held up for second in the blustery conditions. Australia's Anna Segal (56.75) finished third; Canadian Dara Howell placed fifth.
Tsubota opted to downgrade to a 360 on her last jump due to the weather and said that decision paid off.
"If I'd done the 540 I probably would have exploded," she said.
Tsubota and Turski can both earn an early berth for the 2014 Games in Sochi with two more high finishes in top-tier events later this season, one of which must be another podium result. The same goes for halfpipe skiers Justin Dorey, Mike Riddle and Rosalind Groenewoud after their podium finishes on Friday.
Whistler-based Dorey won the men's competition and Riddle finished third, sharing the podium with New Zealand's Byron Wells. Squamish resident Groenewoud took bronze in the women's final on Friday.
Dorey landed double corked 1260s in both directions on his winning run, earning a top score of 93.50. Riddle, who qualified in first position, scored an 88.50 with a clean opening run that included a double 12 and back-to-back 900s. Matt Margetts, the other Canadian in the final, finished ninth.
"This is the most important event for us so far as what the results mean," said Riddle, the reigning FIS world champ. "It's huge to get a podium so I'm unbelievably excited. Now I hope to build on it."
Dorey, who threw the right-side 12 to finish his winning run despite not working on it much going in, said Olympic qualification stuck in the back of his mind as well.
"I usually go for broke on every run. Sometimes it works but it's a gamble," said Dorey. "I knew I needed a podium for the Olympic qualifying so I was a little more reserved. That helped me focus."
Americans Brita Sigourney (90.25) and Maddie Bowman (87.25) finished one-two in the women's final ahead of Groenewoud (84.00).
"It's nice to start with a podium," said Groenewoud. "It's our first qualifying event for the Olympics so it's a great way to start the whole qualifying season."
Keltie Hansen was the other Canadian in the women's final and she placed sixth (62.00).
In snowboarding events from Breckenridge, Saskatchewan's Mark McMorris won the men's big air and slopestyle events, while North Vancouver's Spencer O'Brien took silver in women's slopestyle.

TEXAS GEMS - Lower Rio Grande Valley National Wildlife Refuge
Site Description
The Refuge currently manages 111 individual tracts totaling 77,000 acres. The Refuge is authorized to purchase additional lands, up to 132,500 total acres, anywhere in the four counties of the Lower Rio Grande Valley. The Refuge prioritizes acquisition of lands along the Rio Grande extending 275 miles from Falcon Dam to the Gulf of Mexico. When possible, the Refuge secures parcels that are directly adjacent to existing refuge lands and serve as links connecting separate tracts (the analogy being that of a chain, with even a single link missing it doesn't function). Areas that have unique or notable resources, for example tracts on which endangered plant or animal species are known to occur, receive priority for acquisition.
The protected lands of the Refuge support perhaps the richest and rarest biodiversity in the continental United States. The Refuge manages habitats supporting 13 federally threatened and endangered species and 57 state protected species. In total, 485 species of birds, 294 species of butterflies, 115 species of reptiles and amphibians, and 83 species of mammals are known to occur in the Lower Rio Grande Valley and adjacent Gulf of Mexico coastal waters. Presently, 776 plant species are documented on the Lower Rio Grande Valley National Wildlife Refuge, but an estimate of the total number of plant species occurring in the Refuge's area of ecological concern is placed at 1,200 species.
Date Site Established:
February 2, 1979.
Date When Information Last Updated:
May, 2003
Texas, Cameron County, Hidalgo County, Starr County, Willacy County, 26°07'30"/98°07'30
Relative Size:
Areal extent of site 77,000 acres
Area of Influence:
Ecoregion: 315, Southwest Plateau and Plains Dry Steppe and Shrub Province
(Compiled by R.G.Bailey, 1995).
Watershed(s): 12110208, South Laguna Madre; 13090001, Los Olmos; and
13090002, Lower Rio Grande (USGS Hydrologic Units).
Ecological and Cultural Characteristics
Habitat Type:
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service identified eleven biotic communities in the Land Protection Plan for Lower Rio Grande Valley National Wildlife Refuge (1985): Chihuahuan Thorn Forest, Upper Valley Flood Forest, Barretal, Upland Thornscrub, Mid-Valley Riparian Woodland, Sabal Palm Forest, Clay Loma/Wind Tidal Flats, Mid-Delta Thorn Forest, Ramaderos, Wooded Potholes and Basins, and Coastal Brushland Potholes.
Rare/Endangered Species:
The following species are identified as endangered or threatened by the U.S. Dept. of Interior:
Wood Stork, Bald Eagle, Aplomado Falcon, Piping Plover, Least Tern, Jaguarundi, Ocelot, American Alligator, Green Sea Turtle, Hawksbill Sea Turtle, Loggerhead Sea Turtle, Kemp's Ridley Sea Turtle, Leatherback Sea Turtle. Tx. Parks and Wildlife Dept identify numerous additional species as threatened or endangered including: Reddish Egret, Hook-billed Kite, American Swallow-tailed Kite, Common Black Hawk, Gray Hawk, White-tailed Hawk, Zone-tailed Hawk, Ferruginous Pygmy-owl, Northern Beardless Tyrannulet, Rose-throated Becard, Black Capped Vireo, Golden-cheeked Warbler, Botteri's Sparrow, Coues' rice rat, Coati, Texas tortoise, reticulated colared lizard, Texas horned lizard, speckled racer, Texas indigo snake, black-striped snake, northern cat-eyed snake, black-spotted newt, Rio Grande lesser siren, Mexican burrowing toad, giant toad, Rio Grande chirping frog, white-lipped frog, Mexican treefrog, sheep frog, river goby, and blackfin goby
Breeding/Nursery Area:
The refuge provides breeding habitat for numerous coastal wetland, inland wetland, and upland migratory bird species; nesting sea turtles, including Kemp's ridley sea turtle; and numerous other amphibians, reptiles, and mammal species.
Forage Area:
The refuge provides foraging habitat for numerous coastal wetland, inland wetland, and upland migratory bird species; nesting sea turtles, including Kemp's ridley sea turtle; and numerous other amphibian, reptile, and mammal species.
Migratory Species:
The refuge provides habitat for numerous coastal wetland, inland wetland, and upland migratory bird species.
Geomorphic Features:
Portions of the Refuge are juxtaposed at the mouth of the Rio Grande, adjacent to South Bay. Features include: Beach dune systems; lomas; and tidally influenced sand, mud, and algal flats. Lands managed by the Refuge extend upstream to Falcon Reservoir and include additional tracts surrounding the La Sal del Rey, La Sal Vieja, and East Lake inland salt lakes.
Ecosystem Function:
When this project began in 1979, ninety-five percent of the Lower Rio Grande Valley's unique habitat had been eliminated or altered, primarily for agriculture. Consequently, the Refuge protects much of the remnant Lower Rio Grande riparian forest and adjacent xeric ecotone. Much of the land purchased by the Refuge has been, and continues to be, actively cultivated. To address this, the Refuge has developed an extensive cooperative farming and revegetation program that restores between 750 and 1000 acres of farmland per year to native habitat. The earliest restoration efforts have matured to produce habitats that are harboring native species of plants and animals that can not be seen elsewhere in the United States.
Uniqueness of Natural Community:
The protected lands of the Refuge support perhaps the richest and rarest biodiversity in the continental United States. The Refuge manages habitats supporting 13 federally threatened and endangered species, two recently down listed species, and 57 state protected species. In total, 485 species of birds, 294 species of butterflies, 115 species of reptiles and amphibians, and 83 species of mammals are known to occur in the Lower Rio Grande Valley and adjacent Gulf of Mexico coastal waters. Presently, 776 plant species are documented on the Lower Rio Grande Valley National Wildlife Refuge, but an estimate of the total number of plant species occurring in the Refuge's area of ecological concern is placed at 1,200 species.
Archaeological and Cultural Significance:
Included as a National Historic Landmark, the Palmito Ranch Battlefield is the site of the last land engagement of the Civil War. Union and Confederate soldiers fought here on May 12-13, 1865, more than a month after Gen. Robert E. Lee surrendered at Appomattox. The Union force under Col. T.H. Barrett was defeated by the Confederate troops under Col. "Rip" Ford.
Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, El Sal Del Rey has been the site of salt harvest for at least 3,000 years. Warring Native American tribes set it aside as a truce area. In the 1500's Spanish explorer's claimed it for Spain. In the 1930's it provided the legal precedent establishing mineral rights in the State of Texas.
Current and Potential Use of the Site
Existing or Potential Educational Use:
The Refuge supports various educational activities carried out by both individuals and groups. Throughout the school year, area public and private schools use the refuge by for field trips and outdoor classroom activities. Students doing graduate or post-graduate research conduct wildlife research under Special Use Permits.
Recreational Use:
The refuge offers wildlife observation and photography, and seasonal hunting and fishing access.
Commercial Use:
Oil and Gas activities: All of the subsurface mineral rights below the refuge are privately held and exploration, and production activities are ongoing.
Private Use:
The refuge is used by private entities for public use related activities, for example bird tours.
Management Status
Land Ownership:
LRGVNWR is owned and administered by the National Wildlife Refuge System, Fish and Wildlife Service, U.S. Department of the Interior.
Existing Designations:
The Refuge manages two nationally significant historical sites: Palmito Ranch Battlefield , a National Historic Landmark; and El Sal Del Rey, listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Management Status:
The refuge is managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service as a unit of the National Wildlife Refuge System, a network of lands and waters for the conservation, management and restoration of the fish, wildlife and plant resources and their habitats for the present and future generations of Americans.
Existing Monitoring Activities:
The refuge conducts numerous biological monitoring activities including: sea turtle patrols, shorebird surveys (including Piping Plover), ocelot surveys, and a variety of academic research is permitted.
Site Viability
Threats to Ecological Integrity:
The most significant threats to the refuge and the Lower Rio Grande Ecosystem are primarily related to development: urban, suburban, and industrial; including specific issues such as flood control and water demand and competition (most notably as water demand relates to instream flow and the health of the river and associate estuary as a nursery for numerous aquatic species). Additional significant threats relate to illegal immigration, drug smuggling, and border law enforcement activities.
Management Potential:
The most significant action necessary to maintain the viability of the refuge and the ecosystem is continuation of refuge land acquisition program. All 77,000 acres of the refuge have been purchased since 1979 and the refuge has authority to purchase additional lands up to 132,500 acres total. Additionally, continued enhancement and development of the refuge law enforcement program will contribute to diminished impacts to refuge resources.

Mt St Joseph College, 4403 Frederick Ave, Baltimore, MD 21229-4199, USA
The senior continued his run of fine performances by winning four events — the 55 hurdles (7.82 seconds), the long jump (20 feet, 6 inches), the 300 meter dash (35.62) and the 800-meter relay — at last weekend's MIAA League meet. Miles' performance helped the Gaels to a share the regular season championship with Gilman. Coach Jack Peach said Miles, who has a 3.3 GPA, is a natural athlete. "You could probably put him in any event and he would win," Peach said. Miles is considering a number of colleges, including Morgan State.
Also considered: Garrett Burkhead, Patterson Mill, basketball; Vince Ciattei, Perry Hall, track; Tyler Goodwin, Arundel, wrestling; Nathan Kraisser, Centennial, wrestling; David Nicholson, Arundel, basketball; Donte Pretlow, Dunbar, basketball; Hunter Ritter, John Carroll, wrestling.

Madhuri Dixit turns action star for 'Gulaab Gang'
Madhuri Dixit plays a social crusader, who is not afraid to throw a punch, in her latest film 'Gulaab Gang'
MovietalkiesShow Thumbnails
Madhuri Dixit, regarded widely as one of Bollywood's best superstar-actresses, held sway over the audience and box-office in the 90s.
She broke many-a-heart when she quit Bollywood in 1999. Her comeback movie 'Aaja Nachle', in 2007, was a half-hearted attempt, and fell flat at the B.O. In 2011, Madhuri staged a terrific comeback, albeit on the small screen, with the reality show 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa'.
Come 2014, Madhur Dixit seeks to revive her career with author-backed roles in films like 'Dedh Ishqiya' and 'Gulaab Gang'.
We take a look at the life and career of Queen Mads, who turns action star with this week's release - 'Gulaab Gang'.

Associated Press
The boom in natural gas drilling has cast two opposing documentary filmmakers in unlikely roles.
The liberal environmental activist finds himself at odds with President Barack Obama. The free-market conservative is echoing the Democratic president's support for natural gas.
Josh Fox and Phelim McAleer (FAY'-lihm MAC'-uh-leer) don't see eye-to-eye on much of anything, especially each other.
Experts say the pro- and anti-drilling movements the filmmakers represent each have some good points.
Harvard economics professor Jeff Frankel says the fracking revolution is clearly good news from the national security and economic standpoint, and even delivers some environmental benefits.
Yet Frankel says the fracking critics have legitimate concerns about drilling in sensitive watersheds. He says residents should get to choose whether they want drilling locally.

Chapter XXXI
Jeremy woke to find an unconscious Sunni laying across his chest his morning wood impaled in her clenching twat she rolled her hips slightly in her sleep. He cupped her ass and tickled her asshole with a finger and she gasped and opened her eyes. "Oh hi" she said sleepily.
"Good morning Sunni sleep well?"
"Fabulous" she said as she repositioned her self on his cock. Jeremy reached up to play with her perky breasts as she began to ride his engorged member. She leaned over so that he could taste her delectable breasts. He suckled her breasts as she bounced; Jeremy caressed her back and butt as she ground her hips against his. She began to thrust more urgently and the muscles of her sex contracted around his cock. Jeremy tensed as his balls tightened under the heady pleasure and then his cock-exploded electric sparks extended from his fingertips to his toes as his hands grabbed Sunni's hips and he jammed her down on his erupting cock. She gasped as he kissed her, his fingers gently caressing her sweat soaked back.
A few minutes later he got up and went outside the other girls were already working, Jeremy went to work on rebuilding his canoe and soon Rachel and Annabel joined him. They worked the morning away getting the canoe at least partially finished before it started to rain.
Everyone hurried to the cave but it was soon obvious that it was just a passing tropical shower and they were soon back to work under the sun. Jeremy was on his way back to his boat project when Sunni appeared "Jeremy" she said reaching under his skirt and grasping his cock. "Can we?" Jeremy pulled up Sunni's skirt and lifted her onto his cock and pressed her against a tree as she wildly humped her hips against him. Jeremy could feel cum starting to boil in his balls and Sunni wiggled free and took his pulsing rod in her mouth and sucked and jacked him into oblivion. She slurped and sucked his juice from his cock until his legs trembled and he begged her to stop. "Did I do okay she asked?"
"Was very nice" Jeremy said trying his damnedest to get his eyes to focus again. He half staggered away as Sunni giggled behind him. Jeremy managed to get a little more done before Rachel called them all in for supper. Shannon and Priscilla showed off the second dildo that they had finished and promised they were working on more. The girls were all pretty excited by that. And as darkness fell around the campfire Jeremy retired to his nearly finished hut. Inside were Sunni and Annabel. Sunni pushed him to the floor of the hut and straddled his face and Annabel apparently went to work sucking his cock.
Annabel skillfully brought him right to the edge as Sunni humped his face until she nearly crushed it between her thighs when she came. Annabel then started tonguing Sunni's ass, Jeremy could see in the low light her face just over Sunni's head as Sunni kissed and licked his chest. Then Sunni lowered herself onto Jeremy's cock not like before it was a more difficult and tighter fit, Jeremy knew when his head popped past her sphincter that he was inside Sunni's tight little asshole. She bottomed out before she started slowly sliding up and down his shaft, he noted that Annabel was sucking and licking his balls her finger gently probing his own ass as he took it all in. Sunni was apparently torn between touching Jeremy's chest and her own as she rode up and down on his cock because she would reach out with one hand and tweak her nipple with the other. He could feel the pressure building as Sunni got more and more excited by the penetration until finally he exploded. Sunni moaned loudly as she felt his boiling hot cum fill her bowels. She let him slowly slip out of her ass and she disappeared out of the hut for some time. She returned to find Annabel slurping noisily on Jeremy's cock.
Chapter XXXII
It was morning and Jeremy untangled himself from the two women sharing his bed and he walked outside. He walked over to his calendar and marked the day. He then went to the Japanese base and started working on moving one of the huge engines. He got it moved to one over to the hangar with the help of a wheelbarrow and quite a lot of straining and then he was able to move it into position with the help of a chain hoist. He got it all pretty well connected and rested for a bit. He walked back to the camp; on his way he found Shannon and Tiffany working on their wooden aids.
"Oh Jeremy would you tell Tiffany?"
"What?" Jeremy asked
"That you got me pregnant?"
"I did?"
"Yeah that was me you fucked on the night of the storm"
"That doesn't mean you're pregnant"
"I so want to be though."
"Bitch" Tiffany said
"Oh don't worry he's got plenty of baby batter in that big cock of his for you too"
"Yeah but when am I going to get basted" Tiffany asked
"I guess you will have to wait your turn" Shannon said
"Why do I have to wait my turn?" You didn't
"Ladies, the last thing we need is everyone having a baby at the same time."
"Its not fair master" Tiffany pleaded "Please fill me with your hot baby maker so I can have your baby too"
"Look Tiffany if Shannon is pregnant we will talk about it not before"
"But that could be weeks?"
"It could but in the mean time you're going to have to live with things the way they are"
"I still say it's not fair"
"Tough titties" Shannon said
"Oh I'll give you tough titties" Tiffany promised as Jeremy proceeded down the path.
Back at camp Naomi was just returning from a gathering trip she looked a little green "You okay Naomi?"
"I'm fine" she burped "Just some of this fruit smells awful" and this morning I felt like shit warmed over"
"I hope your not getting sick," Jeremy said "That would be bad"
"I don't think so" Naomi burped again "I think I maybe you know"
"You know what" Sara asked
"Nothing" Naomi said burping again
"What's wrong with you Naomi," Sara asked, "you have been weird all day?"
"I'm fine" Naomi assured her belching loudly this time
"If you say so," Sara said
Jeremy spent the better part of the afternoon working on the canoe and it was nearly finished by the time it got dark.
Chapter XXXIII
Days turned into weeks and it was time for another lottery again, This time it was Tiffany, Naomi's daily bouts of nausea continued and it was clear at least to Jeremy and Naomi and Nicole that she was pregnant though Naomi did her best to hide the fact. It was early morning when Jeremy took Tiffany and Nicole with him in the canoe to see what could be seen of the other island. They had not been back since well before the storm. They landed the canoe and Jeremy told the two girls to stay with it while he went and looked around. He covered the island in half an hour and found no signs of life. He went to his secret cave and harvested another pile of obsidian and cut a good amount of cane from the cane break. He tied it into a neat little bundle and lashed it to the outrigger.
"There is something I want to do Tiffany said before he could push the boat into the water."
"What's that?"
"Well last time we were here I got to taste your cum for the first time now your little slave girl wants to ride back to the other island with it tripping out of her." Nicole just shook her head as Tiffany posed against the rock outcrop. Tiffany stuck her boyish ass out and tilted her hips down and looked over her shoulder.
"Well how about it big boy" Tiffany asked flipping up her skirt and displaying her thick-lipped pussy to both Nicole and Jeremy. Jeremy took the hint and lifted the front of his own skirt and probed her pussy with the swollen tip. He pushed just a few inches in at a time taking long shallow strokes as Tiffany wiggled her hips and groaned in anticipation. "Please" she cried "Oh please?" he drove his thick rod in to the hilt and the next cry from Tiffany's lips went up an octave.
"What a lovely singing voice" Nicole chuckled moving up beside her as Jeremy plowed her swollen slit. Nicole removed her shirt and offered a distended nipple to the gasping Tiffany, who sucked at it wantonly. Nicole pulled off Tiffany's shirt while the other girl sucked on her breasts. Jeremy pounded Tiffany's round taught ass with every stroke. Nicole played and twisted the other girl's nipples, her breasts barely more than a swell on her chest. Tiffany grunted and groaned and then her eyes sort of crossed and she drooled all over Nicole's chest as Jeremy groaned and blasted his load into her baby factory. Nicole and Jeremy launched the boat and then helped Tiffany get into it. They then loaded the rest of their cargo and started to paddle back.
The trip back was uneventful and they arrived at the island Jeremy landed the canoe and looked back as Tiffany stepped gingerly from the boat Nicole helped him unload. They arrived a few minutes behind Tiffany who was sitting under a tree next to Shannon who was apparently shoving several fingers into her friend. "It looks like he really did Tiff?" she said
"That means I can get pregnant soon?"
"Yeah, yeah, just rub it in"
"Tiffany I'll be back in a little while"
"Hey Jeremy?"
"Don't knock up Nicole or anyone else until I am sure I'm good and prego." Jeremy laughed and walked into the trees following the path to the Japanese base Nicole followed behind him.
"So who do you like better."
"Not a fair question Nicole"
"Okay who do you prefer to spend your time with?"
"You and Naomi… maybe Sara or Rachel." Nicole made an approving noise and they came out of the brush to the base. He worked on tracking down the loose connection on the controls and after two hours of looking he found it. It took a bit of doing but he was able to splice the broken control wires back together. It wasn't perfect but it shouldn't come apart either and if he had to repair it in an emergency at least he knew where it was. He went back to moving the other two engines into the hangar. Nicole helped of course they rested in the cool cavernous area of the hangar their sweaty bodies sticking together.
"What do you think it will be like if we ever get back?"
"I think it will be hard to explain"
"I don't care if it is Jeremy I'm with you no matter what"
"Well that's nice to know Nicole actually it would be nice just to get back never mind all the what ifs"
"Oh be sure that Sunni will stick with you like glue and probably Tiffany and Shannon and well Annabel is a no brainer now. That's five girls in your permanent harem maybe more who knows. Jeremy sighed at this comment. "Oh come on now Jeremy having a gang of girls at your beck and call to fulfill your every wish?"
"Nicole when will you get it through your head that I never wanted any of this?"
"But not only are you going to get it but maybe there will be more who want to be with the wonderful Jeremy."
"For some reason I feel like many people will frown on this."
"You think Joe and Gary are dead", Jeremy nodded
"Most likely they are" he said
"Good riddance"
"Nicole they were people albeit not the best of people but people all the same and they didn't deserve to drown in a storm any more than anyone else who dies that way."
"Don't worry too much about it Jeremy there was nothing you could have done"
"Wasn't there?"
"No they were dangerous and evil and no matter what you did you could have never changed that."
"Fine" its time we headed back we'll see about mounting those other engine soon."
"How long before you think she'll be ready to fly?"
"Who can say depends on how long we have to work on it and how much"
"If you could work on it full time?"
"Assuming we find oil and fuel?"
"Two weeks on the outside"
"That soon?"
"Sure but I'm supposed to impregnate everyone before we leave the island."
"And well until most everyone is knocked up I don't see any real rush do you?"
"No not really" Nicole smiled "I did have one other thought?"
"What's that?"
"Well in order to keep Annabel out of too much trouble I think you should knock her up very soon?"
"We already have two women whose pregnancies are almost too close together for me to be really comfortable"
"I know but just imagine if we made Annabel the" Nicole emoted air quotes "Nurse and let her breast feed for the majority when we can't always you know"
"You are evil Nicole"
Nicole grinned, "I know" she yelped as Jeremy slapped her ass.
Chapter XXXIV
The camp was getting ready for the evening meal it was mostly fish that Rachel had caught she had trained with Jeremy's spear for a week before she got the hang of it. The fruit had already started to grow back and after about a week of cleaning they were able to clean the salt water out of the travertine pool in the back of the cave. Jeremy got his food someone had figured out how to make plates out of the grass ropes that Sunni had been using for clothes. The plates were a little flimsy perhaps, but they worked. Jeremy was leaning against a rock when tiffany walked up to him. She held her plate in one hand and with the other stroked his cock and then pressed it into her warm moist slit. She rode him there in front of everyone eating morsels of food as she slowly slipped up and down on his pole. She also would offer up little tid bits to Jeremy as she chewed and bounced. The other girls watched with a bit of envy. Tiffany finished her plate and waited for Jeremy to finish before she really got down and started pounding her pussy against his hips. Jeremy grabbed her hips and thrust up as he erupted inside of Tiffany. Tiffany got up off Jeremy's wilting tool and sucked and licked him clean giving the others a shot of her cum filled pussy. Jeremy retreated back to the hut though there were four more under construction. He stood just outside the door and watched the clear sky. The darkening blue slowly sparkling with stars…
"What are you looking at" Tiffany asked coming up behind him
"The stars" he said
"Why they are just stars, they are always the same aren't they?"
"Nope here look watch them" Jeremy stood behind the smaller girl and put his arms around her as she looked up at the sky. "Now what was that all about at supper? I'm supposed to be the master I thought"
"You are I just thought since I…"
"You did? I'm the master remember? You told me that you were devoted have you changed your mind?"
"I'm sorry" she whimpered
"I'm not convinced" Jeremy said pulling at her pebble like nipples that capped her almost flat chest.
"Oh please Jeremy I mean it I'm sorry." He twisted her nipple causing her to gasp.
"You wanted to be my slave girl?"
"You say you live to serve me?"
"Yes" she whimpered
"From now on you will beg me to fuck you" he smiled
"Yes master"
"I'll want you in the morning to bring me breakfast and then before you eat I want you to ask any girl except Shannon if you could please eat her. If she says yes then I want you to eat her to an orgasm. Then you are to come to me and beg to suck my cock. If she says no however you will invite her to suck my cock, you must watch and cheer for her but you cannot touch yourself for the rest of the day at least until lunch time. When you will repeat the process until someone says yes understood?"
"Yes master but that means"
"That means that because you were an arrogant slut showing off in front of everyone you must pay a penance."
"When you are finished with your penance I'll fuck you again."
"Yes master"
Jeremy walked into the hut and laid down. She started to lay down beside him. "No" he said… you don't get to lie next to me until your penance is over. Tiffany lowered her head and exited the hut. Jeremy waited a little while before he peeked out and saw Tiffany lying in front of the door she was curled up in a little ball. She had apparently been crying for a little while. Jeremy had hated to do it but what she did was wrong, and she had said that she was his little love slave her and Shannon anyway. He had to do something to keep discipline and this had seemed like the best idea. Though he was sure that Naomi would disapprove, but the girl put herself at his service and she was taking liberties, punishment was necessary. The morning meal would be interesting.

I just have to say that this is one of the better stories on this site. You missed the occasional quotation mark but it wasn't anything major. Also I agree with the other viewer, keep Jeremy less aggressive so he will continue to be the hero. If he gets too aggressive then he will jut be another ass. Keep on writing.

Search for a W' boson decaying to a bottom quark and a top quark in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV |
CMS Collaboration(s) |
(2013) |
Results are presented from a search for a W' boson using a dataset corresponding to 5.0 inverse femtobarns of integrated luminosity collected during 2011 by the CMS experiment at the LHC in pp collisions at sqrt(s)=7 TeV. The W' boson is modeled as a heavy W boson, but different scenarios for the couplings to fermions are considered, involving both left-handed and right-handed chiral projections of the fermions, as well as an arbitrary mixture of the two. The search is performed in the decay channel W' to t b, leading to a final state signature with a single lepton (e, mu), missing transverse energy, and jets, at least one of which is tagged as a b-jet. A W' boson that couples to fermions with the same coupling constant as the W, but to the right-handed rather than left-handed chiral projections, is excluded for masses below 1.85 TeV at the 95% confidence level. For the first time using LHC data, constraints on the W' gauge coupling for a set of left- and right-handed coupling combinations have been placed. These results represent a significant improvement over previously published limits. |

Council member Laura Morrison says swimming pools are a very necessary function for the city, "As the summers gets hotter, aquatics will become a much more critical element of public health and relief from the incessant heat that we sometimes feel."
Morrison supports the expenditure. The council will hear more about the study at their meeting this week.
