In September 2010 Marlana McElvaine had everything to live for.
She was the loving mother of two small children.
She had a great job and a close-knit circle of family and friends.
But on Sept. 12 that year, McElvaine vanished – just two weeks before her 28th birthday.
She hasn't been seen since.
McElvaine's mother, Dian McElvaine, has spent many sleepless nights over the past three years.
"It's so surreal because it's like, 'What happened? Where is she?'" Dian McElvaine said. "We don't know."
She has painted the street with fliers, held annual prayer vigils and maintained constant contact with Tucson Police.
"I want to know what happened to Marlana, probably has bad as her family does," TPD Det. Doug Musik said.
Authorities do have some idea what may have happened, but they don't have enough evidence to even name a suspect.
"She did have some domestic issues at home, which is leading us in the direction of homicide," Musik said.
That's where a tip to 88-CRIME can make all the difference.
"People do go missing, but it's pretty rare for people to just abandon their children, their job, their family, their life," Musik said.
Three years after she went missing, Dian McElvaine realizes her daughter is probably gone. Still, she wants to know for sure and she wants to say goodbye to Marlana the proper way.
A way which allows her to "have the dignity and respect that she deserves," McElvaine said, "a funeral service, something for her, for her life.
"At least we could have some closure."
Anyone with information about the disappearance of Marlana McElvaine is urged to call 911 or 88-CRIME.

Best-in-Class Textbook Deals Cheat Sheet: College/K-12
August 13, 2013 | Posted By: Ann McKenna | Categorized in: Back to School
8/13/13: Updated for your back to school savings! :)
For some students, school is quickly approaching and its time to round up all your textbooks. When I was getting my undergraduate degree, I would wait until the last minute and pay a fortune at my campus bookstore. Do not make this mistake. I repeat, do not make this mistake. It will leave a big dent in your wallet. Luckily by the time that I was earning my MBA, I learned of the concept of "renting your textbooks" kudos to Chegg. I can't express how much of a lifesaver that was. Some of my friends were paying triple what I paid to rent a book.
Beyond renting a book, there are lots of great websites like Amazon that offer brand new books that you can keep for cheap. In addition, they offer a great membership program called "Amazon Student" which is open to any current student. Members receive benefits such as six months of free two-Day shipping with Amazon Prime, and e-mail alerts for discounts and promotions. That is perfect for people looking to get their hands on a textbook fast.
So take some time and check out our fabulous textbook merchant deal guide.
As my mom would always say "Readers are Leaders"! Happy Textbook shopping :)

Revision as of 21:02, 13 May 2013
Professor Minerva McGonagall, born 4th October, is a teacher at Hogwarts and member of the Order of the Phoenix. She was the Deputy Headmistress, Head of Gryffindor House and taught Transfiguration whilst Albus Dumbledore was Headmaster. She later became Headmistress of Hogwarts after Harry Potter defeated Voldemort.
Character development
She is initially seen as a strict teacher by Harry in his first year at school, who was bad news when he was acting outside of the rules. She did not appear to believe Harry's assurances that the Philosopher's Stone was in danger, instead she was more alarmed that he'd somehow discovered its secret, placing her faith in the guards already in place. However, when Harry claimed that Voldemort had returned, McGonagall was one of Harry's supporters and joined the second Order of the Phoenix. She was devastated by Dumbledore's death at the end of Half-Blood Prince. She wanted Harry Potter to take her into his confidence, but, though he refused, she continued to protect him from the Ministry. In the final book Minerva McGonagall stayed at Hogwarts under the rule of the apparently true Death Eater Severus Snape in order to protect the students. She was quick to rally the teachers to defend the school when Harry Potter (now fugitive from the law) surprised her by turning up and asking for time. She was angry enough with the Dark side to use an Unforgivable Curse on a Death Eater. After the Battle of Hogwarts Minerva McGonagall became Headmistress of Hogwarts. She stayed true to her side and the Order of the Phoenix throughout the books.
She attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry when she was close to 12 years old. As one of the rare instances of [hatstall[hatstalls]] she was examined by the Sorting Hat for over five minutes while it debated whether or not it should place her in Ravenclaw or Gryffindor. It decided on Gryffindor in the end.
During her time at Hogwarts she was selected to the Gryffindor Quidditch Team.
Minerva would go on to become a Prefect in her fifth year, and Head Girl in her seventh. She would also achieve top grades in her O.W.L.s and N.E.W.T.s, and win the Transfiguration Today Most Promising Newcomer award.[1]
She was a member of the original Order of the Phoenix.
First book
McGonagall was the first magical person to be seen in the Harry Potter series, when she sat on the wall of Privet Drive in the form of a cat whilst waiting to see Dumbeldore in the wake of all the rumours about the death of the Potters. In 1981 she waited all day, disturbing Vernon Dursley with her not entirely convincing cat-like behaviour as she read a map and a sign. On hearing Dumbledore's plans for leaving Harry with his aunt and uncle, she protested, knowing how Harry would suffer in their hands. However, she relented when Dumledore explained some of his reasoning.[2]
In 1991 Minerva McGonagall was one of seven staff members to create magical protection for the Philosopher's Stone at Hogwarts.[3] When Harry turns up at Hogwarts for the first time, she is the one to let the first years into the castle and introduce them to some of the rules.[4] She is first seen as a teacher you don't want to cross, and gave everyone talking-to in their first ever Transfiguration class. Her teaching is effective with her strict style when she taught them all Transfiguration, and she was quickly impressed with Hermione Granger.[5] Despite her apparent inflexibility when it comes to the rules, when she catches Harry flying without supervision in his first flying lesson his punishment is his immediate acceptance into the Gryffindor Quidditch Team.[6] She even purchases Harry's first ever broom for him, a Nimbus 2000.[7]
McGonagall was less impressed with Hermione when she appeared to have chased after a mountain troll in the hope of capturing it, taking points from her and awarding points to Harry and Ron for her rescue.[7] Later when Draco Malfoy tells her that Harry and Hermione are sneaking an illegal dragon to Romania, she is far less forgiving of what she sees as a trick to get Malfoy in trouble by being out after dark. She gives a heavy punishment equally to Harry, Hermione, Draco and Neville Longbottom (who had tried to stop Malfoy) for their transgression.[8]
When Harry Potter and his friends discover that an attempt to steal the Stone is imminent, they try to warn Professor Dumbledore. Failing him, Harry eventually tells Professor McGonagall out of desperation. Once she recovered from the surprise that they knew the Philosopher's Stone was at Hogwarts at all, she sternly warned them that it was well protected and placed her faith in the spells already guarding it, taking no steps to add to them. When she found that Harry and Ron were hanging around in front of the door to the Stone she lost patience with them and threatened to punish them if they continued to watch it. The trio had to take it upon themselves to stop the thief, and, in the end, they managed to get past the protections themselves, including her contribution of a gigantic chess set.[9] She finished the year with the pleasure of her House finally beating Slytherin to win the House Cup, though sadly not the coveted Quidditch Cup.[10]
Second book
Professor McGonagall was not impressed when at the beginning of the year she had to start by disciplining two of her own House for stealing a flying Ford Anglia and nearly revealing the existence of wizardkind to the Muggles. She did not deliver the harsh sentence of expulsion that was intended by Professor Snape, but did give out detentions to both Ron and Harry.
She was also disapproving of her new co-worker, Gilderoy Lockhart. However she soon had more to worry about when the Chamber of Secrets was re-opened. When Albus Dumbledore was removed as Headmaster thanks to the efforts of Lucius Malfoy, she as Deputy Headmistress had to try and keep the school running as normal in the face of the prospect of closure. She was on hand however when Dumbledore returned to the school to meet with Mr. and Mrs. Weasley after their daughter Ginny Weasley was captured. She was present when Harry and Ron returned along with Lockhart and heard Harry's tale firsthand. She managed to recover from the shock of their story enough to leave them distinctly worried about what punishment they might receive for saving the school from a Basilisk.
Third book
In 1993 Professor McGonagall again had to see Harry Potter before term even began. This time however she was not telling him off, but was concerned after an owl from Remus Lupin (her new colleague) brought word that he had taken ill on the train after a Dementor had searched it. To Harry's indignity she had called on the services Madam Pomfrey the matron but they weren't required. She also gave Hermione a Time-Turner to accommodate her over-full timetable with instructions as to its safe use and told her to keep it secret.
McGonagall started their first lesson of the year with her impressive demonstration of her skills as an Animagus, transforming into a cat infront of the class. However she was quietly disappointed when they were too distracted to applause. After questioning the students she was somewhat scathing when she discovered that they'd been unnerved by their first Divination lesson with Sybill Trelawney, who had foreseen Harry's death. She alleviated Harry's fears by assuring him that Trelawney had predicted a death a year and none of them had come true yet, voicing her disapproval of the subject as a whole.
In the light of the escape of the supposed criminal Sirius Black Minerva McGonagall had to be even harder than normal on students who were possibly putting themselves in danger. When Harry Potter asked McGonagall if he could go to Hogsmeade despite his unsigned permission slip she refused, though she was sympathetic. She also decided that although the Ministry thought that Harry should remain ignorant of Sirius' apparent intent to kill him, she would tell him. He already knew however and when she tried to ban him from practising Quidditch Harry worked on her love of the game and strong desire to see Gryffindor win to make her relent. She did not tell him all she knew about Sirius Black and unfortunately Harry heard the rest (Sirius' friendship with his father and position as Godfather to himself) when he eavesdropped on her and some other teachers along with the Minister for Magic, Cornelius Fudge when secretly in Hogsmeade. Also her love of the game did not prevent her from confiscating the renowned Firebolt broomstick that Harry was sent anonymously for Christmas when Hermione reported it to her. She was very pleased to be able to give it back when it proved safe, however. She sobbed with pleasure when Gryffindor finally won the Quidditch Cup near the end of the year.
Fourth book
Minerva McGonagall came skidding into the Great Hall at Hogwarts at the start of the school year, yelling at Peeves and nearly strangling Hermione Granger as she slipped on water from Peeves' water bombs.[11] The following day new teacher Alastor Moody made an impression after he punished Draco Malfoy by Transfiguring him into a ferret and bouncing him up and down. Minerva McGonagall was shocked upon discovering the scene and immediately raced to Malfoy's rescue, undoing the Transfiguration and sharply informing Moody of the proper procedure for punishing students.[12]
During this year McGonagall worked them all hard as the Ordinary Wizarding Level exams were already casting a shadow. Also with the arrival of students from Durmstrang and Beauxbatons she was stricter than normal about students' lack of ability in class or appearance.[13] When the champions were picked for the Tournament, Harry Potter was unexpectedly picked as an unheard of fourth champion. McGonagall was part of a heated debate on what to do, standing up for Dumbledore who was modest in the face of the accusations that he had made a mistake.[14]
Throughout the Tournament she tried to help Harry, whilst still obeying the rules. As McGonagall led Harry to the First Task she was clearly nervous for him, putting her hand on his shoulder and doing her best to comfort him. [15] In the run up to the next Task she gave Harry a note to use the Restricted Section[16] and later gave Harry, Ron and Hermione permission to use the her Transfiguration classroom at lunchtimes to practise for the Third Task.[17]
After Harry's extremely impressive performance in the First Task she ran to meet him, exclaiming that he had been excellent and sending him to see Madam Pomfrey.[15] She was not as delighted with Harry when he was caught duelling with Ron at the back of her class with some joke wands. She went on to warn the class about the Yule Ball which was coming up. Parvati and Lavender fell to giggles at the idea of McGonagall 'letting her hair down' as she put it. McGonagall also had to inform a horrified Harry that it was the job of the champions to lead the dancing.[18] She herself did dance at the event with Ludo Bagman, whilst wearing a red tartan dress and an ugly wreath of thistles around her hat.[19]
During the Third Task it was McGonagall's job to patrol around the maze, along with Moody, Hagrid and Flitwick. Harry was able to get through without needing their help, however on touching the Triwizard Cup at the end he was transported out of sight.[17] Harry made it back alive, but was quickly spirited away by Moody. Dumbledore, McGonagall and Snape followed soon after, and used Stunning Spells to blast down the door and stop him from killing Harry. She tried to send Harry to the Hospital Wing, however Dumbledore stops her saying that Harry needed to first understand. He sent McGonagall to find a black dog at Hagrid's hut who she was to take to Dumbledore's office and inform that he would be with him shortly. She did not question the order, but quickly carried it out.
When she returned she found that the person she had believed to be Moody all year was in fact Barty Crouch junior, a Death Eater who was thought to be dead. She witnessed his confession under the influence of Veritaserum. He told them how he had been rescued from Azkaban and helped restore Voldemort to a body again by ensuring Harry touch the Portkey.[20]
McGonagall was left to guard Crouch and Snape sent to bring the Minister for Magic, Cornelius Fudge, to the room to hear Crouch's story for himself. Unfortunately Fudge feared enough for his safety that he insisted on bringing a Dementor with him into the castle, a creature that Dumbledore abhors. The Dementor immediately administered the Kiss on Crouch before giving him time to testify. McGonagall was furious at this, and was still arguing with the Minister as they went to see Dumbledore in the Hospital Wing where Harry had finally been taken. She lost control as Fudge refused to believe their urgent news that Voldemort was back. Fudge left angrily, and Dumbledore quickly brings the Order of the Phoenix back into action.[21]

Portrayals within films
Minerva McGonagall is portrayed in all the films by Maggie Smith.
Outward appearance
Strict and tall with black hair, often tied up in a bun.
A strict upholder of the rules, she would punish wrongdoers, but was described as fair and didn't favour the subjects of her own House. Amongst her peers she was friendly to most, but would sometimes look down on Hagrid and Sybill Trelawney. Despite that she was still indignant on their behalf when they were fired by Dolores Umbridge and raced to stop her and some Ministry officials attacking Hagrid. She treated both Gilderoy Lockhart and Dolores Umbridge with contempt and revealed her own sense of humour with some of her put downs.
When Umbridge became Headmistress she displayed a rebellious side. McGonagall would often argue with her and quietly aided those who were trying to upset her régime, from refusing to help get rid of Fred and George's fireworks and swamps to even helping Peeves by whispering which way a chandelier should be unscrewed. When it came to Quidditch Professor Mcgonagall would on several occasions forget herself in her passion for the sport and her own House pride.
McGonagall cared about her students and those on her side and would often cry on learning of the deaths of people she knew. She was brave in the face of Death Eaters and was very loyal to Dumbledore, following his strange orders without question. She was against the Dark Arts, but in the final book allowed herself in her anger to use the Imperius Curse on Amycus Carrow who had been abusing her students all year, though only to capture him and his sister.
Magical accomplishments and skills
Minerva McGonagall was very skilled in transfiguration, and taught the subject for a while at Hogwarts. She became an Animagus to further her understanding and ability in transfiguration and these abilities have proved quite useful.
Minerva McGonagall is a registered Animagus, one of the few in the books. She can transform at will into a tabby cat with distinctive markings around the eyes the same shape as her square glasses. She is an excellent dueller and teaches Transfiguration. She can produce a corporeal Patronus in the form of a cat and can use her Patronus to communicate. Also, she was able to cast three Patronus at a time, although it was not in the presence of a Dementor.
Although she did not practice the Dark Arts, Minerva was able to effectively cast the Imperius Curse on Amycus Carrow, proving that she had some knowledge in this field of magic. She was also skilled in Defence against the Dark Arts, having survived two wars and been able to take on many Death Eater's, and Voldemort himself (with assistance from Kingsley Shacklebolt and Horace Slughorn). What's more, she was able to survive 4 stunning spells to the chest in 1995.
Her wandless and non-verbal magic were also quite advanced, as she was able to make Neville Longbottom's leg reappear when he accidentally made it disappear, with just a wave of her hand. She was also able to turn Draco Malfoy back into a human non-verbally after he was transfigured into a ferret in 1994 by Barty Crouch Jr. (disguised as Alastor Moody). Later, in 1998, she was able to conjure a silver rope and a net both non-verbally and then cast three patronuses at once, without saying a word.
Other than transfiguration, their were also some other subjects which she was capable of using her skills in with ease. For example, in 1992 when Ron and Harry had to eat in Snape's office, she conjured a plate of sandwiches (although this was probably conjured from somewhere as food cannot be created with magic) which was charmed to refill itself. She was also known to be skilled in ancient runes, being able to read them.
Her leadership skills were very good, as she was Head of Gryffindor House (formerly), Deputy Headmistress of Hogwarts and became Headmistress of Hogwarts until 1998. She also drove Severus Snape out of Hogwarts and took charge of the school, also being able to order Filch to do things.
Fir and dragon heartstring, nine and a half inches, stiff.[1]
Minerva is the eldest child and only daughter of Muggle Robert McGonagall and Isobel Ross, a witch, and the older sister of Malcolm McGonagall and Robert McGonagall Jr. She has both nieces and nephews.
She married Elphinstone Urquart, but was widowed only three years after their wedding. She never took his name.
She is named after her maternal great-grandmother Minerva.[1]

4Lindsay Missed Court, Isn't in Trouble for It
On Saturday, I told you guys that Lindsay had a court date this morning, you know, for that time she punched a psychic. She had to be down at the courthouse in New York today, or there would be a warrant out for her arrest.
Well, it's today. The hearing happened. Lindsay is still in London. She's not in trouble at all. What is this girl even made of?
Really though, she just got super lucky. This morning, prosecutors announced that they were still investigating, which means that the hearing has been delayed. Which means that Lindsay is fine. Which is bullshit.
In other Lohan news, Dina just gave an interview in which she claims that "Lindsay saw her dad abuse me—that's why she's so screwed up." Which could very well be true, or at least a big part of it, but it really just grosses me out when her parents blame each other for Lindsay's problems. It's like that's the greatest insult they can throw at each other, "you screwed up our cash cow." It's unsettling.

4 Responses to "Lindsay Missed Court, Isn't in Trouble for It"
Why hasn't anyone asked the most obvious question: If that lady is a legit psychic, how did she not see that punch coming?
Is this effing chick totally above the law? I just wish we could all slap the sh*t of her like that scene in "Airplane" — just all of us standing in a line smacking her across her bloated face. Ugh.
She KNOWS she's not going to be held accountable. What is she into? I don't understand unless she's made a deal somewhere real high up….
…or real low down. I know I said she had entered her Bette Davis as Baby Jane years, but lately she looks like she's already got formaldihyde instead of blood.

PLATTSBURGH — An enthusiastic group of business people has helped relaunch the Plattsburgh Downtown Association.
About 20 people attended the revived organization's second meeting on Thursday morning, held at Champlain Wine Company, and agreed to focus on two initial initiatives: support for the First Weekend events and creation of a map to show what's available downtown.
Biz News Ink
Colin Read of the Wine Company said downtown offers a different experience than the Route 3 corridor. Shopping downtown seems to be more leisurely and oriented around events and family.
"I think that's what makes the downtown business owners unique," he said.
First Weekend can only help support that, Read said.
The series, which kicked off in June, features musicians who volunteer to perform outdoors on the first Friday and Saturday of the summer months to help attract visitors to downtown businesses.
The firms are asked, but not required, to offer a 10 percent discount to Friday visitors who return to downtown the following day.
The next First Weekend is scheduled for July 5 and 6. The series is scheduled to continue with events in August and September.
Tim McCormick, of the tax and accounting firm McCormick and Deon, said people would like to see the First Weekend series extended throughout the city limits.
William Ferris of Big Apple Audio agreed with that concept.
"Anybody who wants to participate, come on in," he said, adding that it's only common sense that the downtown will remain the core for those events.
Bob Smith of Nine Platt Hospitality Group said it is important to have a core when starting such initiatives, then allow it to expand outward to its full potential.
Becky Leonard of Under One Roof Video Store said she has identified 20 businesses on Margaret Street between Boynton Avenue and Cornelia Street. She is working to provide those owners with information about First Weekend.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) -- Taxpayers now have an easy way to check on the status of their Illinois tax returns.
Comptroller Judy Baar Topinka unveiled a system Monday that allows taxpayers to see if their payments have been processed by entering their names and Social Security numbers on a comptroller's office web page.
They may also enter an email address and phone number to receive notifications when their payment is processed.
According to Topinka, taxpayers "no longer have to wonder if the check is in the mail."
In addition to registering for tax return notification, the page allows taxpayers to view a history of their return payments, a breakdown of state spending and bill backlog information.
The site also links to the comptroller's "transparency" sites called the "Ledger" and the "Warehouse."

Goji Berry Powder
Certified: Gluten-Free Kosher
Looking for all the health benefits of goji berries? Our goji berry powder is a convenient, highly concentrated form of the world's most powerful anti-aging food. Goji berries are believed to enhance the immune system, protect eyesight, and support the liver. Made from wild goji berries, this powder can be mixed with water to make goji juice. Enjoy it in smoothies and teas for a superior boost of antioxidants and other nutrients.
How to Use Goji Berry Powder
To make goji juice, add 1 tablespoon of goji powder to 8 ounces of water, and stir until dissolved. Goji berry juice has a pleasant and mild sweet taste that is similar to prune juice.
Goji berry powder can also be blended with other fruits to make smoothies and juices. Add an antioxidant boost to your favorite teas and drinks by stirring in a few teaspoons of goji powder. It can also be enjoyed with yogurt, oatmeal, and chia seed pudding. Get creative by adding the powder to some of your favorite everyday foods or including it in your recipes.
Our goji berry powder is non-GMO. We also sell dried goji berries.
Health Benefits of Goji Berry Powder
1) Goji berries are rated #1 on the the ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) scale, the most widely accepted system for measuring the antioxidant level of foods. Antioxidants are protective nutrients that may protect against chronic diseases and premature aging by fighting off damaging free radicals in the body.
2) Goji berry powder contains 18 amino acids, which help build protein, repair our muscles, and support metabolism. More importantly, goji berries contain 8 out of 9 essential amino acids, which are compounds that our bodies do not produce naturally and must obtain through food.
3) Goji berry powder is an excellent source of vitamins A and C. Both of these powerful vitamins are important for boosting the immune system to ward off illness. Vitamin A also plays a special role in eye function; it supports the health of the retina. Vitamin C helps repair tissues, heal wounds, and supports the cardiovascular system. Per ounce, goji berry powder contains even more vitamin C than oranges.
4) Goji berries may also delay age-related eye diseases. Taurine, a compound in goji berries, was found to be helpful in protecting eyes from diabetes-related vision loss, according to a study by researchers from the University of Sydney. Another study, published in the February 2001 edition of Optometry and Vision Science found that goji berry supplementation may slow the progression of macular degeneration in elderly patients.

"First, it was the price of the Goji Berries (excellent). Then, it was the website design. Third, it was next day delivery. Fourth, they actually deliver the very next day! Fifth, the cool packaging. Sixth, and most important, the family adopted me. The adoption was important for many reasons: I am a nut; I believe in good nut-trition; and there's usually nothing good on TV (err...not a real reason). Eighth, I never could count, every aspect of this business is done the way I would do it and actually do now, because I am now part of the family. I mean, Jeff is a great guy. And, Cousin David, is a fine gent. I fit right in. My old family thinks I am Nuts. I am. And my new family, likes me this way! I am just nuts about Nuts.com. Do not hesitate to give them your business. This company is a delight in every respect. Did I mention that their product packaging blows the competition away? I kid you not."

"My husband and I used to take this in pill form and ordered from another vendor. We recently bought a Vitamix and are really into smoothies and were looking for more powder substances to add. I was surprised this came in powder format and was so glad to find it. We also use maca, tumeric, goji berry powder, cocoa discovered that these too came in powder format at a fraction of the cost that I was spending through another on line vendor and about half the cost of buying at local stores. I also received my order very quickly. They also put a sample of regular goji berries in my box, which was a pleasant surprise. Nuts.com is my new favorite place to buy smoothie additions!"
Patricia L, Pittsburgh, PA June 20, 2013
"Just received my shipment 2 days after ordering. Wonderful! When my 4 yr old granddaughter saw the Nuts.com box, she got excited and ran to get the box opener for me. Right on top was her favorite, dried kiwi. Wish I had taken a picture of her with those gleaming eyes and smile covering her whole face. She semi patiently waited while I emptied the box and let her sample some of the other dried fruit. Finally I gave her two kiwi slices and she danced, twirled and made up an I love kiwi song. I didn't film that either because I was laughing too hard! Thanks, also for the dried apricot sample. Delicious! Will have to order those next time. I was almost out of noni and goji berry powder. So today's box made my granddaughter and me ecstatic. I restrained myself from dancing and twirling, though. However, we did sing her I love kiwi song together. Keep up your fantastic customer service and exceptionally delicious products. We're hooked for life! "

"I have searched everywhere for Goji powder and finally went online to try to find it. I came across Nuts.com and ordered four bags. I just placed a second order for three more bags and wanted to say how pleased I am with my experience.
Your website is well designed and easy to navigate. The ordering process is super easy as well. I immediately received a confirmation email and then another email from the team letting me know that I had a tracking number (in less than 20 minutes!).
It is a pleasure to transact with you guys. I am not in the habit of posting reviews, but felt that when a company is really doing it right, it should be celebrated. Your brand is awesome, conveying personal attention from a family owned company. You are well organized, well-run and a testament to what online businesses should be.

The highly anticipated Opening Ceremony began with an imagined trip along London's iconic river, the Thames, from its source in Gloucestershire to the Olympic Stadium in east London.
Also during the Ceremony, the Olympic Flame made its way along the Thames in a boat piloted by David Beckham.
At the heart of the Opening Ceremony is the Athletes' Parade where teams enter the Stadium in alphabetical order, with Team GB concluding the Parade.

But while the rest of the world was watching the opening ceremonies of the 2012 London Olympic Games, many Americans were left in the dark. Viewers on the West Coast were not allowed to watch the ceremonies until long after the day ended in London.
The Associated Press reported Friday that NBC was criticized, once again this year, for failing to stream the opening ceremonies online.
NBC Universal announced it would stream live every athletic competition from this year's games but had never intended to show the opening and closing ceremonies except on tape delay.
AP quoted NBC Sports spokesman Christopher McCloskey as saying the ceremonies "are complex entertainment spectacles that do not translate well online because they require context, which our award-winning production team will provide for the large prime-time audiences that gather together to watch them."
Twitter was aflutter with complaints regarding the situation and provided links for the BBC live broadcast of the event.
Piers Morgan, a popular host on CNN, tweeted details about the ceremony, including this tweet: "Laughable that America is yet to start watching the Olympic ceremony on TV. Seriously."
In 2008, NBC also waited to broadcast the opening ceremonies in Beijing amid complaints, although the buzz from China helped create a television audience of 34.9 million people, the largest opening ceremony audience in 12 years.
The countdown to the start of the Ceremony was marked by 96 children standing around the Stadium with popping balloons, followed by the Olympic Bell ringing in the official start of the Opening Ceremony.

North Arlington Boys Basketball sneaks by rival Rutherford Bulldogs
Basketball roundup
In a battle of South Bergen rivals, Queen of Peace raised its record to 5-12 as the Golden Griffins boys hoops squad defeated Rutherford, 52-49, on the road on Friday night.
In the contest between former Bergen County Scholastic League American teams, the Golden Griffins held on in the fourth quarter against a furious Bulldogs rally to claim the victory.
Queen of Peace point guard Kevin Momnohin had a big night with a game-high 21 points and was hot from beyond the three-point arc with four three pointers. Bobby Keegan added 13 points to the Golden Griffins cause.
For Rutherford, Stephen Kinzler led the Bulldogs in scoring with 18 points, while Ben Isola and Mark Von Cappeln added eight points each.
The victory over Rutherford was back-to-back victories for the Golden Griffins who defeated Harrison at home, 60-36, the night before in North Arlington.
In the win over Harrison, Queen of Peace dominated from the start with a 13-2 lead after the first quarter.
Ten Golden Griffins players scored in the Liberty division game, led by Momnohin with 11 points while Nik Dunn added nine points.
Before the loss to Queen of Peace, Rutherford stayed a huge rally at home against Glen Rock and pulled out a 56-55 victory over the Panthers on Thursday in a NJIC Colonial Division battle.
Rutherford was down by 10, 44-34, heading into the fourth quarter when the Bulldogs pulled off a big last period. Kinzler had a huge night with 26 points while Nick Ricciardi added nine points.
Becton held off a last second shot by Hasbrouck Heights on Thursday to defeat the Aviators, 51-49, in a NJIC Meadowlands Division contest. The Wildcats held control for most of the game, but could not pull away.
Becton's Sadhir Mazumdar led the Wildcats attack with 18 points while Josh Hammond and Jordan Eichoch added 14 and 11 points respectively.
After falling to Becton, North Arlington came back to dominate Saddle Brook, 59-37, on the road on Thursday in a NJIC Meadowlands Division contest.
The Vikings controlled the game in the second half after holding a short 32-30 lead at halftime. North Arlington's top three-point shooter, Jeff Frytek, hit four three pointers and led the Vikings with 19 points. Julian Ortiz and A.J. Nocciolo added 14 and 10 points respectively. Lyndhurst's balanced offensive attack was vital in the 56-37 victory at Ridgefield on Thursday in the NJIC Liberty Division contest.
Four Golden Bears scored in double figures led by Kyle Pollio and Marc Estevez with 11 points each while Jonathan Hoff and Erdi Demirbulaki added 10 points each for the Lyndhurst cause as the Golden Bears raised its record to 9-7.
Girls Basketball
Lyndhurst helped their cause in the state playoff seedings with a 54-44 victory over Dwight Morrow on Friday in an independent game at home.
The Lady Golden Bears raised their record to 12-7 and had the game in control by halftime, 34-12. Lyndhurst used balanced scoring led by Camila Alonso with 15 points while Brittany Levario and Grace Tomko chipped in 11 and 10 points respectively. On the night, Alonso had a double-double with 17 rebounds.
In a battle for first place, Rutherford missed out on a chance to get a step up on Glen Rock in the battle for the NJIC Colonial Division lead.
The Bulldogs saw their nine point halftime lead, 21-12, evaporate in the third quarter and the Panthers stormed by them in the fourth quarter.
Rutherford could not respond dropping a 46-37 decision on Thursday on the road. The Lady Bulldogs had three players score nine or more points: Katherine Calabrese with 12 points, Meghan Whitney with 10 points and Stephanie Netelkos with nine points.

Nature Notes with Tony Drakeford: Swallow tale
8:05am Monday 9th July 2012 in Nature Notes By Tony Drakeford
Last week, I was pleased to see that the first brood of Kingston swallows had fledged successfully and were flying with their parents above the Thames.
Plumage of the young birds is much duller than that of the adults and they lack the diagnostic long 'swallowtail' streamers so that they somewhat resemble dumpy house martins (see photo).
A fierce wind was as usual blowing upstream,the same wind that carried sand from the Sahara and coated our cars with a fine deposit. That misplaced jetstream has much to answer for this summer!
Despite the near gale, the swallows manoeuvered seemingly effortlessly and even managed to feed their young on the wing, a most delicate operation and a delight to watch.
Like swifts, swallows have had a pretty lean time of it here with insects scarce. Their main prey consists of mayflies which from my observations have been less plentiful this year.
Skimming the surface of the river the birds scoop up larger prey items than house martins which fly above them,while swifts fly higher still feeding on small flies and spiderlings drifting on their silken lifelines.
This way, the three species do not compete with each other for the same food.
Since I began studying the Kingston swallows fifteen seasons ago there have always been at least three nests in the colony. This summer however there appears to be only one pair nesting.
It would be most unfortunate and indeed very sad if the Kingston swallows do not make it back again next summer.

Bay County and the City of Panama City are on the verge of a land deal that both governments view as a "win-win." But if it goes through, it could have major implications for a local animal advocacy group.
The county has proposed to sell its former government center property at 6th Street and Mulberry Avenue to the city. The 3.23 acre site includes a building that was to be the home of Operation Spay Bay's low cost spay and neuter clinic.
The organization has been raising money to renovate the building since county commissioners agreed to a one year lease for $1 last summer. But the group never executed the lease.
"Recently they've gotten involved with our attorney's office trying to put a lease together, but that's only been in the last several weeks," said Dan Shaw, Assistant County Manager. "Time has transpired to the point where we want to make this deal with the city."
Under the terms of the deal, the county will transfer the property plus $500,000 to the city. The city will pay the debt service on the Bay County Juvenile Justice Courthouse for four years – a total of $1.2 million. That will free up funds that the county will spend to renovate the main courthouse.
The city wants the old county property, which is located in a low lying area prone to flooding during heavy rain, to address long-term drainage issues. "What we would look to do would be to increase the storage capacity of that site so that it can then be used a part of a master downtown drainage strategy," said Jeffrey Brown, Assistant City Manager.
The city will use the half-million dollars from the county to fund a project to widen Jenks Avenue from 23rd Street to Baldwin Road.
As for the spay and neuter clinic, the county is offering a 2,400 square foot metal building at 2017 East Avenue formerly used by the city of Cedar Grove. "Moving the location I don't think is a big issue to them," said Shaw. "I think it's still important to them that they get some kind of assistance from the county and we're still trying to provide that."
Terry Cotter, Operation Spay Bay's treasurer, was surprised to learn of the pending city/county agreement and declined to speculate on how it will affect the clinic's future. The proposed deal is on the Panama City Commission's agenda for discussion at its Tuesday meeting.

In this pile of trash you'll find everything from couches, T.V.s and other appliances. A dump site, or so it appears. But it's not a dumpsite or a landfill. All the trash is piled up at the Greenwood cemetery.
"It's just embarrassing. It doesn't look good at all," said Charles Howard, President of the Greenwood Cemetery Property Committee.
"Some people just don't care. So they came out here and dumped it out, and that's what they did," said Commissioner Donnie Hester.
Every year, dozens of families choose bury their loved ones at the historic site, so volunteers work hard to keep it looking nice.
"You see how it look, it doesn't look good at all," saidHester.
But a sight like this can have a major impact on a distraught family.
Recently, Charles Howard, the president of the Greenwood Cemetery Property Committee first noticed the trash, and so did a family.
Commissioner Donnie Hester and other concerned citizens aren't putting up with it.
Now, the question is why would anyone do something so disrespectful?"
"A lot of people think the landfill is closed, and this is what they are doing."said Hester.
He also says the landfill recently raised their prices. But this is no excuse to desecrate a sacred area. As soon as commissioners got word someone took their old sign down they put this sign up.
They are on a mission to end the dumping before it gets any worse.

It's a bit comparable to the way Canadians feel when people refer to only those from the United States as "Americans." Difference is that tens of thousands of Canadians didn't perish in a deliberate famine created in order to exert control over the country.
That's because we nipped that problem in the butt and burnt the first White House down to send a message!
On a more serious note, I never realized what you have mentioned and always have referred to
theUkraine with "the" at the beginning. "Now I know, and knowing is half the battle". And it's true that we Canadians do not like to be referred to as American. Nothing against our American brethren, but we have our own identity.
+1 eh.

Rough sleeper numbers increase by 250 per cent (From Enfield Independent)

The number of rough sleepers in Enfield increases by 250 per cent, figures reveal
Updated 1:40pm Friday 14th February 2014 in News By Charlie Peat
Homelessness in Enfield has surged by 250 per cent since 2010, new figures have revealed.
According to housing charity Shelter, the number of rough sleepers in the borough has increased from 18 in 2010 to 63 in 2013.
The figures also showed that the average rent in the borough currently consumes 46 per cent of household income.
Edmonton MP Andy Love said: "With rising transport and energy bills and the cost of living crisis, people's disposable incomes are being eroded further. Under the coalition Government, house building has fallen to the lowest levels since 1924 and Boris Johnson has missed every single one of his own targets for building new affordable homes.
"It's no surprise that these worrying new homelessness figures come at a time when the Government continue to push through its chaotic welfare reforms, while showing such complacency on the housing crisis in London.
"Until the Government provide real backing for councils wanting to invest in affordable homes and get rents down, it's likely these homelessness figures will get worse before they get any better."

After their fourth consecutive loss — a new phenomenon in the Ken Whisenhunt regime — the Cardinals officially now qualify as an equal-opportunity disappointment. While the team's offensive shortcomings have consistently created short fuses in Cardinals Nation this season, with neither Derek Anderson nor Max Hall being able to light a fire in a unit that has declined dramatically with Kurt Warner no longer under center, the team's defense had at least occasionally risen to the occasion.
But in the Cardinals' 36-18 loss to the Seahawks — a defeat that puts Arizona three games behind Seattle in the NFC West now that the Hawks have earned the tiebreaker by virtue of their series sweep — the defense rested against a Seattle offense that had been nothing short of pathetic entering the game. Operating without DE Darnell Dockett (shoulder) for the first time in seven seasons, the Cardinals' defense was picked apart by QB Matt Hasselbeck (333 yards passing) like a 52-ounce Porterhouse steak in a field full of vultures, in no small part due to the inability of OLB Joey Porter who, despite the team meeting he called at halftime that actually led to an improved overall effort in the second half, did not do squat on the stat sheet.
The PFW Spin
Porter was far from the only underachiever among the Cardinals' defenders in Week 10. SS Adrian Wilson, who has been ordinary at best since a strong Week One effort, was exploited more than a few times. So were CB Greg Toler, who made Seahawks WR Mike Williams (11 catches for 145 yards) look like the football equivalent of baseball Hall of Famer Ted Williams, and ILB Gerald Hayes, who had an awful game and looked more like Gabby Hayes.
While the defense did tighten up in the second half, the damage already had been done by the Seahawks, not that Arizona's offense had the ability to trigger any semblance of a comeback.
Put simply, the Cardinals look like dead meat in the desert, becoming easy pickings for the vultures in the local media. It's really hard to believe, considering how successful Whisenhunt has been overall in his time as the team's head coach. Clearly, his mettle is being tested to the max with his team in the midst of a massive free-fall with no end in sight.
