"Everyone loved this Christmas card! We used a close up shot of our children which fit within the frame perfectly. The kids really look beautiful within this magical card."
"I liked the cards a lot. We also used a different wash for the picture to give it an antiqued look, which is a new Tiny Prints feature that worked well. Did NOT like that 3 cards came with bent corners because they were dented in shipping. They were a bit pricey, and I might go cheaper next year, though you do get what you pay for."
"I used this card for my business Holiday cards, and I could not be more pleased with the wonderful quality, not only of the paper quality which was thick and sturdy, but also of the photo and text quality which was absolutely beautiful! The shipping was on time and quick. I have received many thanks from my customers who were all pleased and gave many compliments on the beauty of the card itself. Thank you Tiny Prints! I plan to use you again and again!"
"Great weight and quality paper. Colors vibrant-I chose the red. Felt the chalkboard border was a bit dark in person-more black and less "chalky", but overall quite pleased with design and service. Would have liked the option to choose size of image on back as I used a holiday drawing our son made and would have liked it larger with place for text. Why not make back more customizable?"
"Loved the bright colors and the quality of the printing of the photo. Our picture was sharp and clear and fully colored (no faded colors at tiny prints). We love it!"

MP Neil Carmichael says it's 'time to move on' following Maria Miller controversy
Updated 9:22am Monday 7th April 2014 in News By Kate Wilson, Reporter
Secretary of State for culture, media and sport Maria Miller visits Stroud MP Neil Carmichael (4928434)
STROUD MP Neil Carmichael has said parliamentarians need to be 'transparent' when it comes to their expenses in light of the Maria Miller controversy.
Speaking after her recent visit to the Five Valleys Mr Carmichael, echoing David Cameron's sentiments, said Mrs Miller, Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, had learnt a 'salutary lesson' but it was now 'time to move on'.
An inquiry was launched into her expenses in December 2012.
It cleared her of making false expenses claims, but said her 'submission of incomplete' evidence to the inquiry had breached the MPs' code of conduct.
The Commons Committee on Standards ordered her to repay £5,800 to cover over-claiming of mortgage expenses after she failed to cut her claims as interest rates fell.
In the Commons yesterday, Thursday, Mrs Miller apologised to MPs for her attitude towards an inquiry into her expenses.
The controversy comes just a week after the Culture Secretary visited Stroud to discuss broadband and the Fastershire project which is being implemented in parts of the district.
Mrs Miller met residents and local stakeholders at The Bell at Selsley on Thursday, March 27 to discuss the Government's ongoing investment to ensure that 90 per cent of households have superfast broadband by 2015.
Mr Carmichael raised queries forwarded by residents from areas including Chalford, Coopers Edge, Purton and Stonehouse, where homeowners and businesses have struggled with low broadband speeds.
During the meeting Mrs Miller said: "Broadband is an essential aspect of quality of life. Parents want their children to be able to do their homework on the computer at home; rural businesses want to be able to compete, and faster broadband is an essential part of that."
After the meeting Mr Carmichael said: "I am delighted that Maria Miller was able to join us today, and to see what the Valleys and Vale has got going for it.
"Faster broadband around the constituency is crucial to encouraging business investment and boosting the Stroud economy, and I will continue my work to ensure that superfast broadband is rolled out across the district."

Indeed the establishment has never really changed their mind-set and it is no wonder that democracy has died a death in reality in the UK when one considers the people are now just mere pawns in the political game of self-interest and personal fortune at the expense of the British people.

Kingwood Girl Scout hosts art workshop for children to earn Gold Award
Houston, TX – Girl Scout Claire S. held a day-long hands-on art education workshop for young children to earn Girl Scouts of the USA's Gold Award, the highest award a Girl Scout can receive. Less than five percent of girls who join Girl Scouts achieve this national recognition.
"I chose this project because art education is poorly funded in most public schools, so many children miss out on experiencing art and the self-expression it can provide," said Claire, a senior at Kingwood High School. "Art allows people to explore themselves as well as the world around them from new and unique angles."
The Girl Scout Gold Award represents the highest achievement in Girl Scouting; it recognizes girls in grades 9 through 12 who demonstrate extraordinary leadership through sustainable and measurable Take Action projects. Since 1916, girls have successfully answered the call to Go Gold, an act that indelibly marks them as accomplished members of their communities and the world.
For her project, Claire led a team of volunteers in teaching children how to make sock puppets. The children then create a play using the sock puppets as their characters and performed the play for their friends. They also played improvisation games to open their imaginations and explore different worlds.
Claire has been a member of Girl Scouts for six years. At Kingwood High School she is a member of drama, National Honor Society and International Thespian Society. Following graduation she hopes to attend the University of Texas at Austin to study theater.
About Girl Scouts of San Jacinto CouncilGirl Scouts of the USA is the world's preeminent organization for girls, with a membership of more than 3.7 million girls and adults. Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place. Chartered by GSUSA to provide Girl Scouting locally, Girl Scouts of San Jacinto Council is one of the largest Girl Scout councils in the country serving more than 70,000 girl members and 19,000 adults in 26 southeast Texas counties.

Hi, I'm new to the forum, not really a tractor hobbyist but trying to help my Mom out. She has an International Cub, bought new in 1968 or 69, which she is no longer able to use--she just turned 89, I finally convinced her she's too old to get on it! She now thinks she might want to sell it, but neither she nor I have any idea what it's worth. I'll browse the want ad section here and see if I can get a feel for what's reasonable, but I figured it couldn't hurt to go ahead and introduce myself and explain why I'm here.
The tractor is shown in the attached picture. It last ran a couple of years ago but wasn't charging the battery. Since the battery was then fairly new, I suspect a generator or VR problem. The motor is good, no idea how many hours on it, but it's been primarily a lawn mowing machine for its entire life. The mower deck is pretty rusty and the whole thing could use a good steam cleaning, but I think it's basically sound.
I've got a couple of other pictures, too large to post but I could send them to anybody that expresses an interest.
The tractor is located near Hammond, Louisiana. I'm in Texas and don't get back to see Mom as often as I'd like, so I'm trying to help her from a distance.
Any feedback regarding the value of this machine would be very welcome!

Georgie Boy found his comfort zone when he won the Sunshine Millions Sprint at six furlongs on Jan. 24. At least that's the opinion of Garrett Gomez, who rode the California-bred son of Tribal Rule to a rail-skimming, 2 ¼-length victory in the $300,000 race.
The 4-year-old gelding was fourth in the Grade I Malibu Stakes a month before the Sunshine Millions. In the Malibu, Bob Black Jack was able to dictate the pace en route to a 2 ¼-length victory. Gomez expects Georgie Boy to hold his good form when he reunites with him in Saturday's Grade II, $150,000 San Carlos Handicap at seven furlongs.
"He relaxed real well," Gomez said of Georgie Boy's performance in the Sunshine Millions. "That's kind of been his Achilles heel recently. He's been too fresh, but in sprints, those other horses kind of ran away from him.
"The Sunshine Millions was good for him. Hopefully, he'll continue to move forward and keep doing what he's been doing."
Owned and bred by George Schwary and trained by Kathy Walsh, Georgie Boy has a 5-2-2 record from 10 starts, with earnings of $698,634.
Probable for the 71st San Carlos, for older horses at seven furlongs: Devoted Magic, Joel Rosario; Georgie Boy, Gomez; Halo Najib, Rafael Bejarano; and possibly Rail Trip, Jose Valdivia Jr.; Dodgen Bullets and Screen to Screen.
Rail Trip worked five furlongs on Pro-Ride Sunday in a bullet :59 seconds with Valdivia up, but trainer Ron Ellis and co-owner Samantha Siegel were non-committal on whether the gelding would run in the San Carlos or point to the Santa Anita Handicap on March 7. SAFETY ZONE GETS CLASS TEST IN MARATHON SAN LUIS OBISPO
Safety Zone is scheduled to make his first stakes start after 12 career races in next Sunday's Grade II San Luis Obispo Handicap for older horses at 1 ½ miles on turf.
Other than being tested for class, the son of King Cugat, owned and bred by Will Farish and trained by Mark Casse has two things in his favor: turf and distance.
"He'll run all day," said Casse's assistant, Rick Griffith, who directs operations at Santa Anita, where Casse has a division of more than 30 horses for the first time. "The horse definitely loves the grass, and the distance will be the least of his worries. So far, Mark's been very happy here. The horses have run well, and we're hoping we can keep it up and make this a second home." Safety Zone, a 5-year-old Kentucky-bred gelding, has a 3-2-2 record from 12 starts, with earnings of $167,303.
Casse, a fixture in Canada for years, is about to make the rounds at the Ocala Breeders' sale in Florida. "Mark is expected back soon," Griffith said. "Once he's through, he'll be here for a while."
Probable for the 53rd San Luis Obispo: Attempted Humor, no rider; Champs Elysees, Garrett Gomez; Church Service, Rafael Bejarano; Kris Silver, Tyler Baze; Medici Code, Joel Rosario; Safety Zone, Patrick Husbands; and Spring House, Alex Solis.
Spring House worked five furlongs on Pro-Ride Sunday in :59.80 for Julio Canani. HOLY ANGELS-SANTA ANITA RIDERS PLAY FOR CHARITY FEB. 26
The 42nd annual Holy Angels-Santa Anita Jockeys charity basketball game will be played Thursday, Feb. 26, 7 p.m., at La Salle High School in Pasadena. Proceeds will benefit the Holy Angels athletic department. Legendary Hall of Fame jockeys Eddie Delahoussaye and Laffit Pincay Jr. will serve as honorary captains, and will be available to sign autographs from 6 to 7 p.m. in the La Salle High gymnasium.
One jockey who will offer moral support only is 19-year-old Joe Talamo, who won three races Saturday, including the Grade I Santa Maria Handicap on Santa Teresita. "Basketball was never my game," said the 19-year-old Louisiana native, fourth in Santa Anita's standings through 38 days with 26 wins. "I did OK with baseball, but not with basketball. But I'll be rooting for our guys, that's for sure."
La Salle High School is located at the southwest corner of Michillinda Ave. and Sierra Madre Blvd. in Pasadena, approximately four miles from Santa Anita. Admission is $5. FREE UMBRELLAS AT SANTA ANITA TOMORROW, PRESIDENTS' DAY
With two inches of rain forecast locally beginning at 10 p.m. tonight and continuing into Monday, Santa Anita offers perhaps its most timely giveaway ever tomorrow--free umbrellas to all THOROUGHBREDS members at Santa Anita with general admission while supplies last tomorrow, Presidents' Day.
First post time is 12:30 p.m.
Santa Anita is dark Tuesday and Wednesday next week. Racing resumes Thursday at 1 p.m. FINISH LINES: Bobby Frankel said multiple Grade I winner Country Star galloped Sunday morning and was scheduled to work Monday following a gate mishap in Saturday's Santa Maria Handicap that caused her to be a late scratch . . . Two-time Eclipse Award winner Indian Blessing worked four furlongs Sunday in :48.20 for Bob Baffert in preparation for the $2 million Golden Shaheen in Dubai on March 28 . . . Probable for next Saturday's $100,000 Valentine Dancer Handicap for older fillies and mares at one mile on turf: Bel Air Sizzle, Garrett Gomez; North Rodeo, no rider; Swiss Diva, Joel Rosario; and Tiz A Blend, Alex Solis . . . Agent Craig O'Bryan reported jockey Patrick Husbands was "body sore" this morning as a result of a spill in Saturday's seventh race and as a result, would not ride Sunday . . . Tyler Baze has been suspended three days (Feb. 21, 22 and 25) for riding Boule d'Or "into a space without sufficient clearance" in Friday's fourth race -30-

Rated 4.3 out of 5�by 55 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5�by RickG2950 Great Fit and Looks Good The ordering and pick up at store process was very easy and painless. The employees that assisted me were friendly and efficient. It hasn't rained since my purchase but I've worn it a few times for those chilly, early morning tee times and it was very comfortable. The zipper is a little difficult to operate but so far so good. I have / would highly recommend this jacket and you can't beat the price. August 18, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Sonni Love the durable fabric and the red color We were very pleased with the product and the delivery was in a very timely manner. The color red looks really great and the fabric feels fantastic. Very good choice. July 6, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by asequer ultimate travel jacket I picked one of these up just before leaving for a 22 day cruise in the Mediterranean. On 20 days we left the ship to explore ashore for hours. This light weight jacket fits easily in my backpack and is so flexible! The arms have two zippers so you can have a full length sleeve, a half sleeve or no sleeve! The fabric even turns water although luckily I only had one chance to try that. It also works great for golf. I have two sizes now: one for serious layering and one for use by itself. July 5, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by mruiz13904 Well constructed jacket Kept me perfectly dry during a sever rainstorm. I will definitely purchase another one soon. I fit perfect for golf not to tight or loose during backswing. July 1, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by 70+Duffer Better than expected! This jacket with the three in one options goes beyond meeting my needs. My only concern was that it's a little heavier than I expected it to be. Also, the front zipper is a little problematic, in that its hard to get out of as well as zip up. Other than that, I'm really pleased with it and have added it to my bag. June 29, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5�by Ray Great Features but Poor Workmanship Twp zipper pulls at bottom of zipper...why, and very difficult to zip up! June 25, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Terry Great service Ordered the jacket on line on Sunday afternoon, received order confirmation number Monday morning, and on Monday afternoon was advised my order was shipped. The jacket arrived via UPS at 1 PM Tuesday . Jacket was exactly as expected. Great excellent service, with free delivery. Thank you Dicks. June 24, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by masterb Removable sleeves gives you great options This jacket has it all. The option to wear it as a long sleeve or short sleeve jacket and as a vest is great. No matter what the weather brings, this jacket allows you to be prepared. The bungee cord color is also great, just dark enough to hide any marks that may occur with a day on the course. May 31, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Beto54 Great Comfortable jacket This is one of the best jackets I have ever had! Versatle and light weight! easy to carry and care for. May 28, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by grandma excellent from beginning to end I SAW THE JACKET IN THE LAKE GROVE STORE BUT THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE SIZE I NEEDED. I CAME HOME, ORDERED ON-LINE ON A MONDAY AND HAD THE JACKET BY THURSDAY. EXCELLENT QUALITY, EXCELLENT SERVICE AT A FAIR PRICE. IT WAS A GIFT FOR MY GRANDSON AND HE WAS GOING ON A GOLF WEEKEND AND IT ARRIVED IN TIME FOR HIM TO TAKE THE JACKET WITH HIM. HE LOVED IT! I WON'T HESITATE TO PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM DICK'S STORE OR THE NET. COMPLETELY SATISFIED!! May 27, 2014

2011 Sutherland Viognier Roussanne, Thelema(6x75cl)
Sun-dried apricot, marzipan and rose petal aromas, with rosemary undertones. This wine is big with some prominent leesy, toasty notes among the fruit. The finish is clean, fresh and minerally and very long.
2010 The Noble Mud Pie Viognier Roussanne, d'Arenberg(6x37.5cl)
The Viognier is clearly evident on the nose with notes of apricot nectar, ginger, yellow peach blossom and dried citrus peel. Further investigation reveals some lovely florals, spice and a hint of nut characters from the Roussanne. The palate is thick, luscious and powerful. It's full-on botrytis with enormous fruit, spice and floral lift. It's surprisingly complex with dried peach, ripe grapefruit and a hint of rose water adding to the palate. This wine is spectacularly luscious and flavor packed. It will be a fun match to a range of desserts and cheeses at the end of a meal.
2008 Viognier, Podere di Montelupa VDT, Ascheri(12x75cl)
Golden yellow colour with green hues - fragrant aromatic bouquet of ripe fruits and apricots with overtones of honey and spices. Full and round on the palate, with great persistence and a long finish, very complex right through to the finish.
2013 Viognier IGP Pays d'Oc, Leduc(6x75cl)
A vibrant, luminous colour with green hues. On the nose, peach, apricot and almond aromas prevail with a refreshing yet fruity palate with a smooth and round finish.
2013 Viognier IGP, Domaine Cuilleron(6x75cl)
This is an aromatic wine, with delicate floral notes and hints of apricot; fresh and dry.
2009 Sutherland Viognier Roussanne, Thelema(6x75cl)
Sun-dried apricot, marzipan and rose petal aromas, with rosemary undertones. This wine is big with some prominent leesy, toasty notes among the fruit. The finish is clean, fresh and minerally and very long.
2012 Condrieu Les Chaillets, Vieilles Vignes, Domaine Cuilleron(6x75cl)
Wonderfully opulent and perfumed on the nose with dollops of honey allied to blossom and spicy complexity. The palate is rich and full again with great acidity, giving the wine and exceptional balance, and we suspect longevity.
2013 Viognier, Bogle Winery(12x75cl)
Appetizing display of luscious aromas with fresh apricot and pear fruit tang on the palate. A third of this wine spent 10 months in brand new American oak, barrel fermented and left on its lees. The rest of the blend was fermented in stainless steel tanks
2012 Condrieu La Petite Côte, Domaine Cuilleron(6x75cl)
Pineapple and hay aromas with some by floral and herbaceous nuances. Juicy, light and fresh; a wine of modest size and depth, but one with good mineral spine and liveliness.
2013 Viognier, Mandrarossa(6x75cl)
Bright gold in colour with a deliciously succulent bouquet of fresh cut white flowers and papaya with hints of white spices. The palate is medium bodied with plenty of tropical fruit flavours, good balance and a crisp, clean finish.

Former Tennessee Volunteers wide receiver DeAnthony Arnett will be eligible to play in 2012 due to a residence waiver, the Michigan St. Spartans announced. Arnett left the Vols to be closer to his ailing father in Michigan. There was a brief controversy regarding whether or not Derek Dooley would allow Arnett to transfer to a non-MAC school, but decency prevailed.
With Michigan State's top four wide receivers all outgoing seniors, Arnett could make a mark right away. Bennie Fowler, Juwan Caesar and converted cornerback Tony Lippett are among those Arnett will be competing with for catches.
Arnett was a top-15 wide receiver recruit in the 2011 class and almost chose the Spartans over the Volunteers before he decided to head to the South. Arnett hauled in 24 catches for 242 yards and touchdowns in 2011.

Mostly Cloudy
17 of 51
With Bill Summers on percussion and Irvin Mayfield on trumpet leading an all-star cast of musicians and guests, though this is the first album that Jason Marsalis is no longer with the band on drums, "New Congo Square" highlights New Orleans place as a crossroad of cultures and music – especially African inspired rhythms that came to life in Congo Square.
The album paints New Orleans as a palm-covered Caribbean city, a next door neighbor to Havana, Cuba, a sister city to Kingston, Jamaica, moves easily through multiple genres – Latin, salsa, brass band, reggae, funk, and jazz.
This album is a history lesson.
Hot horns and funky percussion percolate and punctuate the recording and brilliantly moves through so many styles and sounds that fit together like a nice puzzle of African influences in New Orleans music. (I won't use gumbo as a metaphor since it is the city's worst writing cliché.) The genius of the recording is melding all of the styles into a wondrous listening tour through African and New Orleans sounds.

In addition to having current charts onboard, use your radar and GPS, if so equipped. But don't rely on GPS alone. Operating in or near areas of restricted visibility raises the risk of an allision, which is when a moving vessel strikes a fixed object, or a collision when vessels underway strike each other. A GPS can't tell you what obstructions are just under the surface of the water or between you and your destination.
Make sure that your navigation lights are "energized and burning brightly," as specified by the Navigation Rules, prior to leaving the dock. Illustrations of appropriate lighting for your vessel can be found in A Boater's Guide to Federal Requirements for Recreational Boats and Safety Tips, online at http://www.uscgboating.org/regulations/federal_requirements_brochure.aspx. Make sure you have extra light bulbs and fuses aboard.
Other than your navigation lights, eliminate all white lights on board as they can affect your night vision and reduce your ability to see other vessels and objects in or on the water. Consider replacing them with red lights, which will not affect your night vision. Set your instrument panel dimmer switch to the lowest readable setting.
Do a marine VHF-FM radio check with a marina, another boat, or the towing companies to make sure it's working properly and, as with every excursion, make sure you have a full fuel tank before heading out. You never want to run out of fuel, but especially not in the dark.
Finally, keep the distractions down. Turning down music and TVs and asking your passengers to keep conversation at a reduced level while underway in restricted visibility will improve your abilities as a lookout.
Boating in Fog
Fog can develop very quickly and brings an increased risk of collision. In fog, if other boats can't see you they need to hear you. If you see fog moving in, do the following before your visibility becomes seriously reduced:
• Fix your position on a chart or mark it on an electronic plotter.
• Reduce your speed to the point where you can stop your vessel in half the distance you can actually see.
• Turn on your navigation lights.
• Instruct any passengers to help you keep watch – by sight, sound, and smell – preferably in the bow.
• Begin sounding one prolonged blast on your horn (4–6 seconds) every two minutes while underway and making way and two prolonged blasts every two minutes when underway and stopped. Continue until the fog lifts and visibility significantly improves.
• If you decide to anchor your vessel and shut off the engine, the sound signals change. While you are at anchor you must rapidly ring your bell for 5 seconds at intervals of not more than 1 minute. This lets other vessels know where you are and what your status is.
The U.S. Coast Guard is asking all boat owners and operators to help reduce fatalities, injuries, property damage, and associated healthcare costs related to recreational boating accidents by taking personal responsibility for their own safety and the safety of their passengers. Essential steps include: wearing a life jacket at all times and requiring passengers to do the same; never boating under the influence (BUI); successfully completing a boating safety course; and getting a Vessel Safety Check (VSC) annually from local U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary, United States Power Squadrons®, or your state boating agency's Vessel Examiners. The U.S. Coast Guard reminds all boaters to "Boat Responsibly!" For more tips on boating safety, visit www.uscgboating.org.

vacation rental description
Only minutes from the Apalachee Bay and spectacular fishing, our comfortable 4 bedroom vacation home in Shell Point, Florida (30 miles south of Tallahassee) is located in gated Paradise Village of Shell Point, which has a community swimming pool and tennis court, and a public beach within walking distance. Right out our back door is your own private boat dock, located on a point, overlooking the bay. The dock is HUGE, with ample room for 3 boats and is also convenient to a nearby boat ramp. This is the view that everyone else in Paradise Village is jealous of! If you are an early bird, you can enjoy your morning coffee while taking in the sunrise across the bay and over Live Oak Island. Any time of the day, you can kick back on the porch and watch the boats come and go ... or enjoy nature at its best, with blue herons, pelicans, white egrets, and dolphins. To catch sunset, you can go to Shell Point Beach and be in awe as the sky is painted with a different variation of colors each night. This is truly a relaxing paradise!
We offer approximately 1630 sq. ft. of spacious living quarters, featuring 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, family room, laundry room, fully equipped kitchen, and a large screened-in porch that stretches across the bay side. The family room is a large open space and is furnished with comfortable den furniture, 32" TV, dining furniture and bar seating. Our accommodations will sleep 7-8 people comfortably, and consist of a king size bed, 2 double size beds, 1 twin bed - each is in a separate bedroom, along with a sleeper sofa and rollaway twin. Perfect for any size family or a bunch of guys who just want to fish.
Shell Point is a small, quiet community located in Wakulla County, one of Florida's best-kept secrets and part of Florida's forgotten coast. Besides offering the best flats fishing anywhere, it's ideal for sightseeing and photography. Wakulla Springs State Park, one of the largest fresh water springs in the world, is only 10 minutes away. Wakulla Springs was the site for filming the early Tarzan movies, The Creature from the Black Lagoon, and Airport '77. From the river boat and glass bottom boat tours, you can see alligators, many species of water fowl, fish, turtles, and snakes, in and among the crystal clear waters emerging from the depth of the springs. They also have a swimming area, with a diving platform. The St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge (10 minutes away), which features the St. Marks Lighthouse, offers a habitat for all kinds of Florida wildlife. (Bald eagles have been spotted here and at Spring Creek - so keep your eyes peeled!) For a close-up, hands-on examination of marine life, you can check out the Gulf Specimen Marine Lab in Panacea, which is 20 minutes away. Also, the Tallahassee Museum of History and Natural Science is about 30 minutes away, and offers a look at Florida's wildlife in a natural setting.
There are other recreational interests in the immediate area.For the tennis buff, there are 6 lighted tennis courts in Medart at Wakulla High School. For the fisherman, the fishing is as good as it gets and there is an assortment of USCG licensed captains that will be more than willing to book a charter and take you out into the bay for a fishing experience that you will never forget. Shell Point is a great place for windsurfing and hosts several Regattas each year. For the beach enthusiast, nearby beaches include St. Joseph's Peninsula State Park and St. George's Island, which are regularly voted into the top ten beaches in the world (an hour to an hour and a half drive). Shell Point Beach is about a block and a half from Pirate Point. It is a very, very small beach located on the bay, which means that the only waves that you will see will be on a very windy day. It doesn't compare to the other two beaches mentioned earlier, but it is very convenient and a great place to kick back and enjoy the abundant wildlife in and surrounding the bay, along with breathtaking sunsets. For those who enjoy great seafood, Angelo's in Panacea (20 minutes away) is one of the finest renowned seafood restaurants anywhere - located right on the water. Nearby Spring Creek Restaurant (less than 10 minutes away) also boasts delicious seafood, including soft shell crab, along with a casual down-home atmosphere. If you decide to rent with us, we will send you a list of all of the nearby restaraunts, along with our personal rating on each one.
Shell Point is located between St. Marks and Panacea, and is only 30 miles south of Tallahassee (Florida's capital). Tallahassee has all of the conveniences of a big city - malls, restaurants, museums, parks, airport - and is well known for being the home of Florida State University (FSU) and Florida A&M University (FAMU). If you are interested in fishing (trout, Spanish mackerel, redfish, tarpon, cobia, flounder, grouper, black bass ... it's saltwater fishing, so the list goes on), boating, or ... if you just want to escape to a relaxing, laid back paradise; yet, be able to venture into the city on a whim, this is the perfect location for you.
Sorry, we do not accept renters under the age of 25.

Home, Squared
Meet Cube, a tiny house (100 square feet). Its designer, Dr. Mike Page, an engineer and Reader in Cognitive Psychology at the University of Hertfordshire's School of Psychology, thinks the concepts embodied in the little building could help change architecture and the way we live. At the link (it leads you to the Huffington Post), you can take a tour of the tiny house and see its space-saving features: Ingenious storage options; unconventional stairs that look like building blocks, which take up less space than standard stairs or a ladder; and a table that can move horizontally within grooves on the wall, to allow for various uses. All this…and a washer too. Page says the house is designed for one person, though two people could live there, if they like each other a lot. Solar panels on the roof provide the power needed for all the appliances. Even in relatively cloudy Britain, the house would pay its inhabitants to live there in the summer, as it would produce more power than it needs. The excess would be sold to the national grid, netting the owner about £1,000 (about $1,641).
There space-saving and energy-conservation ideas here that can be applied to student residences…or homes in general; what do you think? What sort of clever space-saving solutions have you seen your students use?

|SAFIR Spacecraft
Artist's concept of Single Aperture Far-Infrared Observatory
› Larger view
The Single Aperture Far-Infrared Observatory, or SAFIR, is a proposed NASA mission to study the earliest evolution of galaxies, stars and planetary systems using a large cryogenic space telescope.
Designed as a follow-on to the Spitzer Space Telescope, the mission would use a single primary mirror more than five times the size of Spitzer's to detect and study objects previously masked by dust and other space debris.

HEAD TO HEAD: A brief history of Town's clashes with Colchester
6:00am Tuesday 5th February 2013 in Sport By Ned Payne
THERE is nothing to separate Town and Colchester based on the teams' historical encounters.
The sides have met on 71 occasions, both winning 28 times and sharing 15 draws.
In the majority of encounters over the last decade, a single goal has been the difference, this being the case in the most recent encounter in October, when former County Ground full-back Michael Rose hit the winner.
These close games have been a far cry from Swindon's record win against a U's, a 6-1 thrashing back in 1963.
John Stevens smashed in a hat-trick and Ernie Hunt notched a brace following Mike Summerbee's opener.
Colchester had already bagged their record win over the Robins seven years earlier, a 5-0 thumping in Essex, but Swindon got their own back in style.

Just in case the post goes up a bit too late for you - apologies but I didn't get it sent until later yesterday so may not be up until mid-morning today.
Here are the questions for tonight - you can enter here or on the real thread:
"PREDICTIONS LEAGUE: COLCHESTER v SWINDON.
Dear all,
Well anyone turning up tomorrow could be asked to sit on the bench from the sounds of it but I'm sure that those starting will really give it a go and get a bit of revenge on Colchester!!…I'll be making the trip so I blooming well hope they do at least!
The form history is split exactly 50/50 in all competitions and in just league games and whilst our overall away record doesn't blow you away the more recent form has been far better and personally I think the soulless stadium has given away teams more of an edge up there as there isn't much of a home atmosphere so to speak.
The last time we visited was last season's F.A. Cup triumph and despite it finishing only 1-0 we deserved far better….I won't mention earlier this season but even if we only have 9 men fit and available then I expect them to go hell for leather for a win!!
Tricky game to predict but I can see our font men firing on all cylinders tomorrow….good solid win for the STFC boys please!!
Predictions for Colchester v Swindon please…..
1) Correct Score.

Pixie Lott - so named after her fairy-like appearance as a baby - was signed to Def Jam at just fifteen years of age and her first single, 'Mama Do (Uh Oh, Uh Oh)' sold 50,000 copies soon after. This success was easily repeated with the single 'Boys and Girls', a tantalising precursor to the success of her debut album, Turn It Up - debuting at #6 on the UK Albums Chart.

For many families, having a newborn or a young child is both wonderful and challenging. First Connections can help link you to resources you need and offer encouragement and support. First Connections is a voluntary, free, confidential program for pregnant women and for parents and caregivers of young children, birth to age three.
We can send trained, caring professionals to visit your family in your home, at a time convenient for you, to address any questions or concerns about your new baby or young child. One of our First Connections staff may contact your family within a few days after your baby is born to see if you would like a home visit. Other times, a healthcare provider or social service provider, such as WIC, may refer your family to First Connections if they think you would benefit from home visits. We also take requests for home visits from parents and caregivers. We can do home visits in every city and town in Rhode Island. Many of our home visitors speak more than one language.
Infancy and early childhood are important times in life. We're here to help you and your family during these times. You may have questions about breastfeeding, how much a child should be fed, or home safety. Or you may want to talk about your child's development or get help finding child care. Many families ask questions that they are too nervous or shy to ask their healthcare providers. We can also link families with immediate needs to resources and link families to parenting groups. The length of home visits and what happens during a visit depends on your needs.
If you are interested in receiving a home visit, contact the First Connections provider in your community. You can make a home visiting appointment at any time if you are pregnant or have a child younger than age three.

Sammy was an amazing guy, not a rapist, many things in the story above are false, his van was not a 1977 chevy, it was a new 2000 chevy van that his father used for windsurfing, Sammy was an amazing kid that has run into a terrible turn of events. What the press doesn't tell you is that this girl came on to sammy and wanted to "hook up" with him. Sammy should be a free man, This girl and her family have taken the life of a good harmless man. One Love Sammy. These clowns will never fool me with what they say, ur an amazing guy and I know it.
on Nov 18, 2011 at 7:27 am
"Sammy was an amazing guy" .... past tense? That alone speaks volumes. All rapists blame their victims. He is a perp of more than 1 sexual assault. That makes him a predator. Why was this "great guy" so ready to make a plea deal to admission of guilt and a prison term? Maybe he doesn't want the truth to come out! I agree with the victim and her family ...3 years is not long enough for this animal.

You have got to be kidding with "Sammy was an amazing kid that has run into a terrible turn of events!" Even if the girl had been willing, it is statutory rape which any guy knows. The fact that this was forced, he should be locked up and the key thrown away! He is by no means a, "good harmless man." If you are a female, sammys great friend, I hope you never find yourself in any kind of situation like this.

Jerry Sandusky was an "amazing guy" too, does that make you feel any better?

Hey douglas, unfortunatley, you come across as retarted. Go fuck yourself, and then charge yourself with rape... stupid shit fucker
on Dec 31, 2011 at 1:23 am
you guys dont know sammy, you are judgemental stuck up pricks. these girls have been known by the highschool community as girls that sleep around. its no secret. dramtic bitches, its pathetic and makes me sick. you all live in blackhawk, and have nothing better to do but talk shit about someone you dont know, typical 94507...

Excellent double IPA from a local microbrewery. Of all the samples we tried, I would say there wasn't a bad one among them. Definetly worth the trip for both the tasting and the tour. Wonderful, informative staff as well. Full- bodied character to this beer, my husband and I enjoyed this beer( and the place in general) immensely. Tours are on Sundays only, and we both recommend going early before the crowďs descend.

Bottle purchased at Middle Ages Brewing Company in Syracuse, NY. Poured into a Rooster Fish tulip.
Pours a dark orange, with a billowing 2 inch head, and really good strings of lacing down the glass.
Smells include grassy hops, pine sap, pine needles, honey, and sweet malt.
The taste is similar. This straddles the line between Imperial English IPA and American Double IPA- lots of characteristics from both are in this. There is an enhanced malt flavor, very honey-like, with some dry crackery malt like characteristics. There is a huge hop slant to this beer though- lots of grapefruit, pine, and fresh cut grass all battle out. This is a huge IPA, with tons of flavors all battling each other. It could be slighly better melded together, and cleaner, but you can't deny it tastes good.
Medium bodied, sticky mouthfeel, finishes sweet. The alcohol is present a little bit, but doesn't detract too much.
This is a great DIPA from Middle Ages. Due to their English leaning and yeast use (Ringwood), this doesn't taste like a normal DIPA, but it still quite tasty and I enjoyed it.

A-Clear ruby orange, two finger white head, with lots of lacing.
S-Citrus, dirt, grassy, pine tad bit of bread, nice hop notes.
T-Starts with some citrus, grass, bread, nice bitterness.
M-Lighter to medium in body, some hop bite.
O-A regular run of the mill DIPA. Yeah it is good, but in such a saturated market this does nothing to stand out. That being said ~7 dollars a bomber is a nice price.

Poured from a 22oz bottle into a pint glass. Pours a cloudy golden amber color with a finger thick white head. Smell is pretty weak. Mostly floral hops. Not much else. Taste is mostly citrus and floral hops with a good amount of bitterness and slight sweetness. Not much else really. The alcohol is covered up pretty well though by the bitterness. Mouth is very crisp, but maybe a bit too carbonated and heavy. Overall, an okay brew, but lacks in flavor.

Young people, to start, you must acknowledge that for everything you think you know, there is a great deal you don't know. That the first pursuit of man is to acquire knowledge. But until you can discern the real from the fake, true knowledge and the wisdom to wield it effectively will always escape you.

By ERIK SCHELZIGAssociated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - A new Vanderbilt University poll shows a strong preference among Tennesseans for a state-run health insurance exchange over one run by the federal government.
The poll of 829 registered voters released Wednesday showed 53% favor the state-run exchange, while 33% prefer the federal approach.
The results contrast with Republican Gov. Bill Haslam's decision earlier this week not to pursue a state-run exchange. Vanderbilt officials said the governor was not aware of the poll results before Wednesday's release.
Haslam's office did not immediately return a message seeking comment.
Meanwhile, a pending decision over whether to expand Medicaid was much more evenly divided among poll respondents: 47% said they support an expansion, while 46 oppose it.
Haslam has said he will decide the Medicaid issue sometime in the spring.

Update: David Ash returned to start the second half.
Texas has been trying to solidify its quarterback position for a long time now. Last year, David Ash and Case McCoy traded the reins back and forth, with Ash being named the starter coming into 2011. He's played well at times, but he's also seen McCoy take over at points.
That is what's happening against TCU. Ash threw two interceptions in the red zone, then fumbled the gravy-lacquered ball away while being pressured by Stansly Maponga (via ESPN):
McCoy entered with 32 minutes left in the game and Texas trailing, 14-3. The Longhorns' offense has only 125 yards, with the passing game accounting for only 82 of them.
The move did not pay immediate dividends, with a sack by Devonte Fields on third down meaning a three-and-out that was bailed out by a roughing the punter penalty. The second chance was ruined too, by Fields (he's everywhere!) and a false start.
McCoy's thrown 24 times this year, with a 211.62 passer rating, after putting up a 132.33 in 145 throws last year. He's not as mobile as Ash, which could make the already one-dimensional Texas offense even simpler for Gary Patterson to zero in on.
TCU is dominating the ground game, 131 yards to 43, with three different Horned Frogs putting up 29 or more, thanks in large part to some wretched Texas tackling. Quarterback Trevone Boykin has completed all four of his passes, run the ball well and looked comfortable in his option distribution.

Anyone got any comments on these three. I would prefer to hear positive comments rather than anything else.

If I'm not mistaken, this is the first time in over five years that a principal has been appointed from outside the district, except for Judith Barranti at Fairmeadow, who was a friend of Superintendent Callan's.
I think it speaks well of Kevin Skelly that we are able to once again attract highly qualified people from other districts, bringing with them new energy, enthusiasm and ideas.

Sound good to me! I have only heard of O'Neil, and only good stuff, like warm, friendly, in touch, easy to talk to.
What happened with the principal's position at Duveneck? No principal yet to replace the one who is leaving? Anybody know?

I heard from a friend who used to teach in San Mateo that she personally would love to work with McEvoy, who will stand firm and take charge, not be pushed around, support her teachers, and also is a great principal in general. Yay for the right direction. These appointments do seem to show that the District is turning toward the right direction with Skelly coming in. Not a moment too soon.

I spoke with an involved parent of a recent graduate of San Mateo High. She said Paly's new principal is a strong leader who will run a tight ship. As the parent of a son at Paly, I have often felt that Paly needs a stronger, more active principal with a vision, someone who sees the need to facilitate better communication (the lack of which is a common complaint among parents).
