The baby daddy and I are very fortunate to have extremely generous family and friends, who have given our little love gifts of clothing throughout her first year. Little G's closet has been stocked, friends, since her summer birth. We really haven't needed to supplement much.
The time has come, though, for us to take over the primary responsibility of outfitting our daughter. And I'm at a bit of a loss, not knowing where to begin. Which brands hold up better than others, through multiple washing-machine runs? Similarly, which brands resell best, if I decide to pass along Little G's outgrown outfits on Craigslist or eBay, or via a local consignment shop? What other considerations do I need to take into account? (Customer service at brick-and-mortar stores? Return policies at online boutiques?)
Tell me, friends, what has worked for you?
In the meantime, here are some money-saving tips I've picked up through both online and real-life research. I hope they help you in your own clothes shopping for the little ones in your life.
Tip No. 1: The Google enthusiast in me came across this resourceful article, "How to Save While Shopping for Children's Clothes." The guest author recommends the Gymboree and Land's End brands as two for "great longevity." She also recommends used clothing for everyday wear, and new clothing for special occasions, along with other pointers.
Little G has some Gymboree fashions, and I can attest that this brand's quality is high, with well-fitting fabric, strong seams, and securely sewn-on buttons, for example. Just as importantly, her Gymboree garments have held up well, time and again, when washed. Based on my personal experience only, other brands that have proven their mettle include babyGap, Kissy Kissy, Naartjie, OshKosh and Rabbit Moon.
The main consideration here, it seems, is weighing the pros and cons (and practicalities) of making a bigger investment upfront (paying more for a brand that may last longer and resell better) versus spending less on a brand that will work well in the here and now.
Tip No. 2: On the subject of used clothing, I did some more Googling for children's resale shops here in San Antonio. (I recently asked my new friend, MySA.com freelance writer David Kendrick, for suggestions on how I can improve this blog, Maternity Ward. He recommended offering more local resources. So, here you go, friends … a San Antonio-specific list of some children's resale shops! And, many thanks to David for his thoughtful feedback.)
10 Children's Resale Shops in San Antonio
1.) Green Baby Resale — At Bandera and 1604, "between HEB and Cheezy Jane's," according to the website.
2.) Kid N Treasure — I just might have the scoop on this one! This past weekend, I noticed that this new children's resale shop (I like the play on "Hidden Treasure") is opening in The Shops at Churchill Estates, at Huebner Road (where Luciano's Neighborhood Pizzeria resides). It hasn't opened yet, but possibly will be ready for business sometime within the next couple of months or so.
3.) Kid to Kid — Enter your ZIP code to find the location nearest you. According to the website search function, there are three locations in San Antonio.
4.) Kids Junction — I didn't find a website, but the phone number listed online is (210) 340-5532, and the shop is located at 2267 N.W. Military Highway, No. 102 (in the same shopping center as Second Home Resale).
5.) Kool Kids Resale — The website lists the address as 6565 Babcock Road, Suite 12.
6.) Once Upon a Child — Located at 281 and Thousand Oaks Drive.
7.) Rose Cottage Children's Resale — Family-owned, and located two miles outside of 1604 on Braun Road, according to the website.
8.) Sweet Repeats — Live Oak locale.
9.) Twice as Nice — At Blanco Road and West Avenue.
10.) Wee World — The website lists the address as 28152 U.S. Hwy. 281 N. This children's consignment shop also features an indoor play place for your kiddos.
Do you know of any other resale shops that I may have missed?
And, one word of wisdom about buying used clothing, which I learned about in the comments section of one of my online articles: Keep in mind that the resale shop size may not be "true to size," due to various launderings. So, you may want to hold up the item of clothing in question and eyeball if, for example, the 12-month top looks as if it actually will fit your 12-month-old, or if it may have shrunk to 9-month-old size.
Tip No. 3: Mark your calendar for Saturday, April 28: On this day, Concordia Lutheran Church hosts its 11th Annual "Everything for Children Sale," from 8:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. I found out about this event on Craigslist, under the "baby+kids" section. You may want to check this section for similar events.
Tip No. 4: Another Web-based article I came across focuses on online shopping, and lists "5 Tips to Ensure Top Value for Your Infant and Toddler."
Tip No. 5: Accept hand-me-downs from family and friends, and then pay it forward by recycling your child's outgrown fashions with others as well. A friend of a friend recently gave birth to her first daughter, and I was happy to share with her two gift bags filled with some of Little G's newborn and 0-3 onesies and outfits. Let's keep the good karma going strong, shall we?
Thank you so much, friends, for checking in with me today. I look forward to seeing you again next Tuesday, April 24, when we will have a conversation about our fourth book club pick, The Arrivals by Meg Mitchell Moore. See you then!

The Saints announced Monday that they have released veteran DE Bobby McCray and waived CB Glenn Sharpe.
McCray, a six-year veteran, played two seasons with the Saints after signing as an unrestricted free agent in 2008. The 28-year-old played in 32 games, starting eight, and made 59 tackles with 7½ sacks, three passes batted down and one forced fumble. He played the first four seasons of his NFL career with the Jaguars.
Sharpe, a first-year player from the University of Miami, was signed to the Saints' practice squad in January and spent the postseason there before participating in the club's offseason program. He was with the Falcons' practice squad for most of 2008 and '09 after signing with Atlanta as an undrafted free agent.
WR Roy Hall also was released from the Reserve/Injured list with an injury settlement.

SAN FRANCISCO -- There aren't many instances where Oregon football coach Chip Kelly goes relatively unnoticed, or plays second fiddle, but Wednesday morning was one. As Tiger Woods, Patrick Cantlay and Casey Martin meandered around Olympic Club for a U.S. Open practice round, Kelly followed closely behind, part of the entourage trailing the group. As all eyes focused on Tiger, Kelly was able to almost seamlessly blend in, laughing and holding conversation while strolling around the difficult Lake Course.
The reason Kelly was there is simple: Casey Martin, Tiger's old Stanford teammate and current head coach of the University of Oregon golf team, scored a practice round with Tiger. Both are Nike guys, obviously, and the grouping was a natural fit -- Cantlay, an incredibly talented amateur, rounded out the threesome, as well.
No word on if Kelly had any tips for the group, but we can go ahead and assume his advice would have something to do with speeding up the pace of golf.

Dance your Way to Fitness
Friday, December 13, 2013
Photo: Ambro
If you are anything like me, you're always looking for different ways to get in physical fitness without hitting the gym. I love to find ways to exercise while having fun. One way that I have always known how to get fit and have fun is by dancing! Dancing is a great way to stay in shape by improving cardiovascular endurance, strength, coordination, and flexibility. It is also a great way to express yourself artistically and to just have a good time! Another great thing about dance is that there are so many different types; ballet, jazz, tap, zumba, salsa, and tango are just a few to list. There are also so many ways to get involved in dancing. UNH offers dance classes for credit as well as opportunities to participate in the dance company and dance team. Campus Rec offers classes like zumba that combines dancing with cardio moves. If you are looking for other options, there are plenty of local dance studios in Portsmouth, Dover, Barrington, and Greenland that allow you to participate in drop-in classes for as cheap as $12. If you don't feel like leaving the house, there are great dance based workout videos online and on DVD that you can use to get your workout in. If none of these options work for you, grab a few friends and go out dancing for the night! Combining a social outing with your daily physical activity sounds perfect to me! There is no wrong way to dance so go ahead and give it a try, you never know, it might become your new favorite form of exercise!

After the 17-4 run the San Antonio Spurs put on the Utah Jazz in the first quarter of Game 2 of the two teams' Western Conference quarterfinal series, the rest of the night was somehow less competitive. The Spurs cruised to a 114-83 win in a game that wasn't even as close as the final score indicated.
San Antonio pulled most of its starters at the beginning of the fourth quarter, after rolling up a massive 87-53 lead through three quarters. All five Spurs starters — Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, Kawhi Leonard, Danny Green, and Boris Diaw — finished in double figures and posted a plus-minus better than +30 on the night.
The Spurs led by 38 at multiple junctures in the second half, and by at least 24 points for the entirety of it.
Al Jefferson and Josh Howard led the Jazz in scoring on the night. Each had 10 points.

Here's a matchup to watch in Sunday's Panthers-Browns game:
Panthers WR Steve Smith vs. Browns' secondary
Fast, strong and competitive, Steve Smith has long been the Panthers' top receiving threat, and few receivers have been more important to their team.
However, Smith's impact has been blunted this season with Carolina's offense suffering from poor QB play. He has caught just 34 passes for 411 yards (12.1 ypc). He has not caught a TD pass since Week Two, and his longest reception is just 37 yards. Opponents are double-teaming Smith, far and away the Panthers' most dangerous option in the passing game.
The Panthers will move Smith around for favorable matchups, and there's a chance he'll line up on both sides, as well as in the slot.
Check the status of Browns LCB Eric Wright, who missed most of the Week 11 game at Jacksonville with a knee injury. Rookie Joe Haden, who replaced Wright, has played well, with defensive coordinator Rob Ryan recently calling him "clearly one of our best players; he gets better every week." RCB Sheldon Brown's toughness and experience are assets, but he has struggled in coverage at times this season.
If Panthers rookie QB Jimmy Clausen (concussion) is cleared to play and has recovered sufficiently, he'll start. If he's out another week, veteran Brian St. Pierre is likely to get the call. St. Pierre targeted Smith more than any other player in Week 11, with Smith catching four of the seven passes thrown his way for 46 yards. Smith caught 3-47-0 in Clausen's last start (team-high six targets).

Superannuation is provided to the employee in accordance with Customs and Border Protection policies.
Organisational Suitability Assessments/Security clearance
Customs and Border Protection Officers hold a position of trust and must deal properly with highly sensitive information. As a result, all positions in Customs and Border Protection are security assessed positions and candidates must firstly undergo employment suitability screening (Organisational Suitability Assessments (OSA)) before being assessed as eligible and suitable, from a security standpoint, to access security classified information.
OSA checks are processed with Customs and Border Protection. These checks determine whether or not there is anything in your background that might pose an unacceptable risk to the operational and security interests of Customs and Border Protection. If it is determined not to grant you a favourable OSA your application for employment with Customs and Border Protection will not progress further. OSA checks that are determined to be unfavourable are not subject to review or appeal.
The Australian Government Security Vetting Agency (AGSVA) processes security assessments. The security assessments includes background checks and you will be required to provide detailed personal information. This may include details of your employment and residence history, financial circumstances, any criminal charges and/or convictions (including traffic offences and spent convictions), any drug use and any overseas travel. You may also be required to provide this kind of information about your spouse, partner or de facto where applicable. You will also be asked to provide contact details for at least five referees. Your referees will be asked to answer probing questions about factors that will assist in the determination of your suitability to hold a security clearance.
This information is intended only as a guide. It is not a complete list of all the information required to obtain an appropriate security clearance.
For further information visit AGVSA
Medical examination
All applicants for Customs and Border Protection Trainee positions must undergo a medical examination, to ensure there are no medical issues which will impede your ability to complete the role. As Customs and Border Protection operations can be physically demanding, a medical examination must be conducted to certify that you have no medical condition which will prevent you from competently performing the various role responsibilities of a Customs and Border Protection Officer.
Shift work
As a Customs and Border Protection Trainee you will most likely be required to work shifts.
Customs and Border Protection operates in an environment where certain operations are required 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Employees are therefore required to do shiftwork in many work areas. Rosters are developed in consultation with employees and consider:
- business needs of occupational health and safety;
- maintenance of a healthy and productive working environment;
- factors relating to staff amenity and lifestyle; and
- efficient and effective alignment of employees to meet workload demands.
Shift work is more than just a pattern of work. It is a way of life that might have a fundamental impact on your work, sleep and also the management of your health, family and social life.
Refer to the Enterprise Agreement 2011 - 2014 for further information.
Successful applicants are subject to a 12-month probationary period. Your progress is carefully monitored during probation and Customs may terminate your employment at any time in the probation period. Termination of employment is usually only considered when progress is considered unsatisfactory, as indicated by your performance and attendance for example. As noted previously, successful completion of all assessments is a mandatory part of your probation and training.
Advancement to Customs Officer Level One occurs only on successful completion of the six-month training period. The probation period continues for a further six months, formally ending 12 months from the date of engagement.
Outside employment
If you are currently employed in another capacity and you plan to continue this employment after commencement with Customs and Border Protection, you will be required to seek approval from Customs and Border Protection. If your alternative employment arrangements are not approved by Customs and Border Protection your continued employment within us will be dependent on the termination of that employment relationship. The most common reason for outside employment not to be approved are those jobs that pose a conflict of interest to Customs and Border Protection.

Damian Benegas, the famous Argentinian alpinist, has climbed some of the biggest mountains all over the world: in the Himalayas, South America, and Africa. Along with this twin brother, Willie, they have done numerous technical first ascents. Perhaps less well known is the fact that he was the first to summit the iconic 200-meter high Piedra Parada nearly twenty years ago via the route 'Sueno Lento", with his partner Pablo de la Fuente. On the sidelines of the Petzl RocTrip in Piedra Parada, we got the chance to talk to him about his historic ascent, climbing in the area and the Petzl RocTrip.
What brought you to Piedra Parada back in 1993?
Exploration. Where I grew up there was no rock. The closest rock was about 120 kilometers away. So I was always exploring and driving around, talking to people to see where there was rock. The dad of a friend was a pilot and he told me that everytime he flew to Esquel he saw the shadow of Piedra Parada. In 1990 I moved to the US to climb big walls in Yosemite. Later, I visited home in 1993 and we explored the area.
What was this place like when you first visited?
There was nothing here. Mario, the owner, is a very simple man who had about 400 head of sheep. It was much greener, the river was bigger. But there was nothing. Climbers had been trying to do the Piedra Parada for many, many years but they would always get to a certain spot where it requires climbing on questionable rock without protection. And I was climbing very strong in those days, and I just went for it.
It was just desert and there were no climbers. In 1999 Martine Molina and I drove from Mendoza almost 1100 miles one way and did another route. And then Martin started coming here with his friends. For 14 or 15 years, if I saw someone here it was like, "Wow, there's another climber here." Over the last five years, more and more people have been coming and now, with 1000 people here (for the RocTrip) it's just incredible.
How would you characterize the climbing here?
Adventure. I'm more of a traditional climber, not so much of a sport climber. The rock is really bad and blocky with bad protection and very loose. But I like to climb on that type of terrain. It's volcanic rock. From the first time I came here in 1993, I always thought that it could be an international destination some time because there's just so much rock.
I was just walking in the Buitrera Canyon. It was like a crag in the US. You have groups of people everywhere. And I was like, "Wow, this is happening in Buitrera Canyon!" This isn't Bariloche or Cordova - it's not a crag in the US. It's here in the middle of nowhere in Patagonia that somehow with the help of a lot of people, it created this climbing destination.
What do you think about the Petzl RocTrip coming to this area and trying to develop it more?
I always say that the best way to take care of a place is to use it. If you don't use a place, things happen. In Argentina, we have a lot of problems with developing and mining, etc. So when I heard that Petzl was trying to do this thing here, I was so psyched. But also because I saw the place grow up from nothing. For ten years there was no one here and then suddenly there was a Petzl RocTrip. And one of the things that I love about Petzl RocTrips is that they come here and it's not a competition. It's a gathering of strong climbers and it's the best way to develop an area. From what a I heard, they put up about 200 new routes. Lines that I been looking at for years are being climbed. And that's awesome.
Petzl RocTrip had a million areas to choose from for the event - Brazil, Venezuela, Peru, etc. And you guys chose to come here.
What does RocTrip mean for the future of this area and climbing in Argentina?
You know, climbing in Argentina is not a sport. For the average person, it's something that people do that's really crazy and dangerous. For years, locals haven't been using their natural resources in this way. When I started climbing, there were two climbers in my home town - my brother and I. And today I just ran into a group of 20 rock climbers from my home town. The sport is growing.
I heard there are people here from around 43 countries. And many of them came because of the Petzl RocTrip. But the Brazilians, the Peruvians, the Bolivians, the Chileans - they will start coming here more often now. Because, thanks to the Petzl RocTrip, you guys put it on the spot and that will increase the traffic here in the future.
In the past, whenever I approached the government about the sport, they were like, "No way, it's dangerous." And today the government was promoting it. So that's really good.
Here, the sheep industry died a long time ago. There are a lot of people living here and they need to have some kind of income. They never thought that developing tourism would be important because they don't see that. They see something quick and easy, like extracting natural resources, which isn't sustainable and you can replace it. So I think its important to bring tourists to the area, not just for climbing but also trekking, hiking, kayaking, etc.
The best way to take care of a place is to use it in a responsible way. And if we don't this place on the spot internationally, people will come here and mine it. But now if a mine wants to come here, 43 countries will be represented and will say no to the mine.
The Piedra Parada in the setting sun. credit: Guillaume Vallot
Last question: what was it like to be the first on top of the Piedra Parada?
We came in the winter and there was snow in the area, when it used to snow here. We summited and Mario was washing his car by the river. And we screamed, "Hey, hey!" And he started looking around everywhere and he couldn't figure out where all the screaming was coming from, because no one saw us start the route. So right away, Mario grabbed his horse and went around and a lot of people came to the base. And he actually asked us if we had seen one of his male sheep up on the summit!
Back in those days, it was like the first years when people were doing desert towers, back in the sixties (in the US). For me, I felt that way because it was pioneering and we were in the middle of nowhere.
Everytime I summit the Piedra Parada - and I summit a lot - the views are incredible.

SARANAC LAKE — Nemo complicated the final weekend of the "Under the Sea" Winter Carnival, but Saranac Lake's premier event still was a big success, organizers say.
Particularly striking was the 80 or so people who watched the outdoor movie as winter storm Nemo blew through town, Winter Carnival Chairman Jeff Dickson said.
"We are extremely pleased with how everything went, given the weather challenges leading up to the event."
Besides a winter storm that dropped 10 inches of snow, a day-long thaw had threatened the Ice Palace two weeks ago.
"But, to the best of our knowledge, everybody had a good time," Dickson said. "I would say the crowd was down a little bit on Saturday, given travel issues. It was still a really good crowd."
Police in Saranac Lake were kept busy in the hours following the annual Winter Carnival parade.
Numerous arrests related to alcohol use were made, part of enforcement actions planned to help keep the public safe.
Saranac Lake Police Chief Bruce Nason said they increase patrols when there are large festival events in town. Winter Carnival is one of the biggest celebrations of the year, with thousands of people turning out for the parade.
At 4 p.m. Saturday, an 18-year-old was issued an appearance ticket for possession of alcohol by a person under the age of 21, according to the police arrest log.
At 7:30 p.m., a 27-year-old male was arrested at a police Driving While Intoxicated Checkpoint for driving with ability impaired.
A short time later, two adult men were arrested at 7:54 p.m. for driving while intoxicated. They were screened at a DWI checkpoint, and both were processed at the Police Station and released to a third party. One of the two had refused to submit to a breathalyzer screening.

display The display for which to return the parent object.
Revision as of 13:42, 21 June 2011
In this article we will go thru on how to add one or more Markers to the map. A marker defines an Object that may display an icon on the map view.
A supported web browser (basically any modern web browser)
The example assumes you have already added the Ovi Maps to your web page as explained in the previous article "Ovi Maps - add the map to any web page"
Important about Maps credentials
With Ovi Maps API you can start without having any credentials given, but you might face a performance gap. In order to get the full potential out of the offering, you must get the credentials that authenticate your application against the Services. Please read through the Location API.
For more information on how to obtain the credentials, please start with the Ovi Maps API Developers Guide section "Acquiring API credentials"
First we will need to define the Marker. This will be done by specifying:
myMarker = new ovi.mapsapi.map.Marker([50.1,13.1]);
The Marker needs geocoordinates as parameters, that is, the latitude and longitude it will be placed on the map. In our example we are using 50.1 for the latitude and 13.1 for the longitude. myMarker now contains a new Marker object.
To be able to put the Marker on the map, we will need to introduce a new Container. A Container is used to group Objects, thus allowing it to operate on a whole group of objects without the need to iteratively visit each Object (i.e., for changing the visibility).
var myContainer = new ovi.mapsapi.map.Container()
Now that we have the Container ready, we can add the Marker into it:
//or another way of putting this e.g. myContainer.objects.add(new ovi.mapsapi.map.StandardMarker([52.45705,13.21173]));
And then when the Marker is in the Container, we will need to add the Container to the map objects collection, to be able to show the content on it:
The properties of the Marker can be further manipulated, e.g. you can make the Marker draggable (it is not that by default) if you wish:
And to make the Marker static again, you would give:
For a marker you can set a text e.g.
myMarker.set("text","Your marker!")
An external image can be attached as follows:
Or you can select from the predefined list of shapes:
var use_this_shape = "star";
myMarker.set("shape", use_this_shape);
Sometimes it may be useful to know if a Container has been added to the Display. Earlier we could have initiated the Display object e.g. like this:
var map = new ovi.mapsapi.map.Display(document.getElementById("map"),
Now, with the reference to "map", we can request:
test = myMarkerContainer.isAdded (map)
In our case test would result in "true".
With the isVisible (display) : Boolean we will get true if the object's visibility as well as all parent's visibilities are true and if the object is attached to a map (i.e. parent chain ends with a map). The returned value is only valid for the given ovi.mapsapi.map.Display object.
{ovi.mapsapi.map.Display} display The display to check.
In our case we could ask:
test = myMarkerContainer.isVisible(map);
Again, this would result in "true".
With the getParent (display) we can get the parent of the map object.
{ovi.mapsapi.map.Display} display The display for which to return the parent object.
Returns: {ovi.mapsapi.map.Object} The parent object of this object for the given display or undefined if this map object has no parent.
test = myMarkerContainer.getParent(map);
If we want to get the Display names that the Container is attached to, this could be queried as follows:
test = myMarkerContainer.getDisplays();
This case we would know already there is the "map" Display, so requesting now the question myMarkerContainer.isAdded (test) would give us "true", because myMarkerContainer is attached to the "map".
Example code
<title>Marker on the Map</title>

"Every year, I organize a girls' weekend in Dewey Beach. The last couple of years, I had used another website to order custom shirts. Due to lack of selection and less than quality customer service, I decided to look for another site. I was delighted with the entire shopping/ordering experience! Our shirts were a big hit, and we managed to convince a large number of inebriated people that we were the 2010 East Regional Table Tennis Champions! We had a blast!"

NORMAL, Ill. (AP) - Illinois State has kicked All-Missouri Valley Conference defensive tackle Shelby Harris off its football team.
Coach Brock Spack announced Harris' dismissal in a brief news release Monday. The coach did not say why Harris is being removed from the team and said he wouldn't provide further details.
Harris started all 13 games last fall for a Redbird team that made the Football Championship Subdivision playoffs. He had 85 tackles, seven sacks and 16 tackles for losses.
Harris played in a total of 33 games at Illinois State after transferring from Wisconsin in 2010.
The senior had one year of eligibility left.

On a play that turned into a touchdown for the Chicago Bears as Michael Bush ran 8 yards into the end zone for his second score of the day, Redskins safety Brandon Meriweather was helped off the field by two people after an injury to his left knee.
The Redskins later announced via Twitter that the injury would end the safety's night as he would not be returning to Saturday's game at any point in time. According to an on-air report from CSN Washington, it was a sprained knee for Meriweather, although the severity of the sprain is not yet known.
Meriweather was a 2007 first round selection of the New England Patriots before being released by the team just prior to the 2011 season. He spent the 2011 year with the Chicago Bears before signing a two-year, $6 million contract with the Redskins in March 2012.

BP-Admin Bar … did I miss something?
Hey All,
Maybe I did something wrong somewhere, but it's called the bp-admin-bar … yet there's no WP admin links for the site admins. I understand the name is from the administration of each account, I know … but there doesn't seem to be a way to access the site admin area from anywhere in BP that I can see.
I was going to hack the widget to add a link for site admin (if you are an admin of course) but I thought I should check with you guys and see if maybe I have something set wrong or I'm missing a setting somewhere.

CNHI Indiana Statehouse Bureau
---- — INDIANAPOLIS — The federal government has given conditional approval to Indiana to extend its state-run Healthy Indiana Plan that provides health insurance coverage for about 37,000 low-income Hoosiers while officials continue to wrestle over what to do with the hundreds of thousands of state residents who remain uninsured.
On Tuesday, Gov. Mike Pence announced the decision by the Obama administration to grant a limited extension to the state-run insurance program through the end of 2014. As part of the agreement, Indiana will lower the income level for eligibility for the program, pushing about 11,000 current enrollees off its rolls.
"Securing the waiver to continue the Healthy Indiana Plan is a victory for Hoosiers enrolled in this innovative program and it will ensure that Indiana remains in the forefront of consumer-driven health care in the United States," Pence said.
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services OK'd extending the plan, known as HIP, "in order not to disrupt the coverage currently afforded in Indiana as the state continues to consider its coverage options," according to a letter sent by the the federal government to Debra Minot, head of the Indiana Family and Social Services Administration.
Pence said he was "grateful" for the negotiations with the Obama administration and is still seeking its approval to use the state plan as a vehicle for Medicaid expansion under the federal Affordable Care Act.
While 25 states have opted to expand the traditional Medicaid program using federal dollars to cover their uninsured citizens, Pence has resisted doing so. On Tuesday, he repeated his opposition to expanding the Medicaid program, citing concerns about long-term costs to the state.
Pence minimized concerns about the state's estimated 300,000 uninsured residents who won't be eligible for HIP or to buy the subsidized private health insurance that will be available through a federal health exchange program next year.
He said the uninsured can still access health care through hospitals' charity care programs, emergency rooms, and public and privately funded clinics that serve the poor.
"Let's make sure there is a distinction in the language between health insurance and health care," he said. "Every person in this state has the ability, if they are struggling with illness to walk into an emergency room and receive care."
That remark provoked a sharp rebuke from the House Minority Leader Scott Pelath of Michigan City.
"What we're seeing today is something being trumpeted as a success, when in essence it is a complete failure," Pelath said. "The continuation of coverage for a few people does nothing to move Indiana forward, it still leaves these people uninsured."
Senate Minority Leader Tim Lanane of Anderson said Tuesday's announcement comes as a relief to the HIP's current plan members but does little to help Hoosiers without health care coverage.
"To them, today's announcement is nothing more than achieving the minimum."
The Healthy Indiana Plan was approved in 2008 by the federal government as an option for the state to provide health coverage for low-income residents. But the number of Hoosiers who can sign up for the plan is capped at 45,000. Some 50,000 people are on the waiting list.
The plan requires participants to pay up to 5 percent of their incomes into a health saving account, which is used to pay their initial medical expenses. Participant health care costs beyond $1,100 a year are shared by the state and federal government.
Under the deal struck with the federal government to extend the HIP program until the end of 2014, the state will lower the income eligibility for participants, from the current 200 percent of the federal poverty level down to 100 percent, which is about $23,000 for a family of four.
That change will push about 11,000 current HIP participants off the program. Family and Social Services Administration Secretary Debra Minott said those persons will receive a letter recommending hey purchase private health insurance through a federally-managed health insurance exchange that goes online next month.
Moving those people off HIP will then allow FSSA to bring another 5,000 to 7,000 people who meet the new income requirements into the program.
Rep. Ed Clere of New Albany, the Republican chairman of the House Public Health Committee, called the federal approval of the HIP extension "good news." But he said it falls far short of what's needed to cover the estimated 300,000 Hoosiers who won't have access to health insurance coverage. And he said it doesn't address The hundreds of millions of dollars that hospitals lose each year, providing uncompensated health care to poor and uninsured patients,
"I respect the governor's decision to prioritize the HIP extension application," Clere said. "Now that it's resolved, I would hope we could have a full and robust discussion about options for expanding Medicaid."

MANHATTAN, Kan. (AP) -- Kansas State's season has been an exercise in maturity.
There are times the Wildcats play with a veteran savvy, the kind of rugged toughness preached by coach Frank Martin. And there are times they look soft and weak, like a bunch of kids who still need to figure out how to play at the highest level.
"It's something we want to improve on, game by game," associate head coach Brad Underwood said. "That is all we try to achieve and try to get out of our guys every day."
The Wildcats (20-9, 9-8) are tied with Texas for fifth in the Big 12, which carries some significance for seeding in next week's conference tournament. The teams split their two meetings this season, so a lot is riding on Saturday's games.
Kansas State hosts Oklahoma State while the Longhorns visit No. 3 Kansas.
"We approach every game the same way," Underwood said. "The one thing we've done consistently over the time we have been here is that no game is a must-win and every game is important.
"Every time we turn around, we hear someone say that it is an important game. They are all important in league play," he added. "We want to send our seniors out on the right note because they have been huge parts of this program for the last four years. We want to do it for them, but we are going to approach this like any other game."
The only seniors on the roster, Jamar Samuels and Victor Ojeleye, will be honored during their final home game Saturday. Both have been integral parts of the team.
Ojeleye has never averaged more than 8 minutes over his entire career, but he's often sparked the team off the bench, and the way he maximizes his ability has endeared him to many.
Samuels scores just over 10 points a game for the Wildcats.
"I can't really explain it. It's gone by so fast. I remember walking into here like any 17-year-old, just looking around and thinking I could do whatever I wanted. I didn't have my mom waking me up anymore," Samuels said. "It just felt different.
"I told a few guys at Texas A&M that I feel like the old guy in the hourglass, and time is ticking," he said. "I am just trying to get this team as far as I can."
He should have a chance to take Kansas State deep into the NCAA tournament.
The Wildcats have virtually assured themselves a berth. They knocked off No. 7 Missouri twice -- the only visitors to win at Mizzou Arena this season -- and also managed to get past ninth-ranked Baylor on the road a couple weeks ago.
Those were the instances when the Wildcats showed poise, patience and rugged toughness.
In other words: some maturity.
There are have also been plenty of times they've shown immaturity, such as losing at home to Iowa State after a confidence-building win at Missouri. Or the pair of games the Wildcats lost to Oklahoma, which has managed just two other conference victories all season.
Martin was not available to the media this week, leaving Underwood to address questions about the team's growth, its position heading into next week's conference tournament, and the Wildcats' home finale on Saturday against the Cowboys.
Underwood acknowledges it will be poignant.
"You get pretty emotional when you start talking about guys that have been big parts of the program," Underwood said. "I don't look at it as the time they have been here because it goes by so quickly. They impact my life as a coach and they impact the university.
"It's so fun to see them come in as kids, leave as grown men and be responsible for that."
In the end, maybe that's the maturity that matters the most.

Renae Moran, a tree fruit specialist with the University of Maine Cooperative Extension, spoke about the state's apple crop for the latest post of the Portland Press Herald blog "The Root: Dispatches from Maine's food sources." Moran said this year's crop is larger than last year's because the weather during bloom was favorable for pollination. She added that orchards in northern Maine have a lighter crop than southern Maine orchards from poorer pollination weather.

vacation rental description
Located just six-tenths of a mile off Highway 108 on Old Strawberry Road, we are three miles to Pinecrest Lake, five minutes to Dodge Ridge Ski Resort, away from all highway noise, and at an elevation of 5600'.
During the snow season, the driveway will be unuseable with parking for only three cars at the road. If you have more cars, it will be necessary to park some at the school, and carpool to the cabin. It is a short walk to the cabin from your car, but even so, you may need to shovel some snow a few times during your visit, and you will definitely need boots to get in "the price of a winter wonderland I guess."
The main living area has a 13-foot-high ceiling with skylights, all knotty pine with hardwood floors. The beautiful wood-burning, rock fireplace features a quarter-log mantel and has a wood-burning Lopi stove. The fully-equipped kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and gas stove is open to the living room and dining area, combining as the "great room" with oriental rugs and leather couches. The deck is off the living room with a charcoal barbecue.
The first-floor bedroom, just down the hall from the full bath, is so sweet with wainscoted knotty pine walls, full closet, queen-size bed, and beautiful, peaceful wooded views.
There are two bedrooms upstairs. The first has a queen-size bed, knotty-pine and nothing to see but trees!! We call the third bedroom THE BUNKHOUSE mainly because of its size. It has two twin-size beds, 2 queen-size beds, and a sleeper couch. The second dish-television with DVD/VCR player
is here - a good hang out space with plenty of closet room as well. Both of these upstairs bedrooms are off the hall from the second bath with shower and tub.
In the summer, you are three miles from the lake and away from the lake campground's noise and campfire smoke. A short drive to the river or a great walk for you walkers, minutes to good fishing, horseback riding, trailheads, bike trails....a real mountain retreat. In the winter, this is where you come if you want snow and all it has to offer. The land is spacious enough that the kids will have a lot of fun in the snow right off the deck.
cabin rental amenities
Amenities: Wood-burning stove, Phone, 2 Satellite TVs, 2 VCRs/DVD's PING PONG and FOOSBALL.
Full Kitchen, Microwave, Dishwasher, Refrigerator, Ice Maker, Cooking utensils provided, 2 full baths with 2 showers, and a bathtub, Garage(unuseable in the winter), Charcoal barbeque.

Greetings, I work at a college, our Facilities Department requested the purchase of a network version of above, a secretary puchased it. I need to download and install the network piece and the clients. All the secretary provided me is an email with the order details. How can I get the purchased associate with me so I can download? thanks in advance, Gerry
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hello Gary,
As the secretary placed the order I'm assuming that the Subscription is in her name? For starters, contracts are setup by default so that users can add themselves as long as they have the necessary licensing info.
How to Create a Subscription Center Account
Changes to the admin roles, specifically the Contract Manager (again assuming this was setup as the secretary) would typically be routed through our Support Request form.
How to Change a Software Coordinator or Contract Manager
With that being said and as you're already here, I can also make the requested changes if you could send me a Private Message (click on my philip.s profile name and then "Send this user a private message") with the secretary's info, your full contact info, and the contract number or serial number.
Please accept as a solution if this fully resolves the issue, or reply with additional specifics as needed.
PM sent to Philip this morning.
okay, progress! I was able to download the installers. I did not see a network license manager available for download, also the required product keys. Thanks, Gerry
I am trying to obtain a network license file, i have my serial number, where do i find my product key?

I have decided to permanently retire the Monk (my 1949 Cub). I want to keep it like it is.
After some consideration I have bought another one. It's a real nice '59 with fast hitch and a complete Woods 42" mower. It has all the correct linkage (no chains). I WILL use this Cub. Problem is …its in KY and I'm here in AZ.
I'll be leaving Tuesday morning on a 3800 mi. round trip CubQwest…draggin the Cub Hauler.
I know this is short notice but if there is anyone on the Farmall Cub Forum, near me here in SE Arizona, that needs something hauled east let me know. I will be traveling through S. New Mexico, Texas, Arkansas, Tennessee, Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois and Missouri ( US 10, 20, 30, 40 and 55 mostly). I am going back empty as of right now.
The tractor also comes with a sickle bar mower, and a mold board plow that snaps into the fast hitch. Is it much work to break down the sickle bar mower so it will fit into the back of my Ford standard bed? What tools should I take along?
I'm looking forward to the trip. I will be taking my Powerbook to provide updates and emergency calls for assistance to the Farmall Cub Forum.

Well, Ky is close to me! I could keep an eye on it for you until you can pick it up. Of course, there'd be no hurry to do so! It's the least I can do for a fellow cubber!
You can separate the cutter bar from the mower frame at the hinge fairly easily.
If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.
My wife says I don't listen to her. - - - - - - - - Or something like that!
I always find the cutter bar to hinge pins stuck and impossible to remove.
You can remove the pitmat then (usually) knock the pin out that holds the coupling bar to the flywheel shaft tube.
Thanks Bigdog and Jim. Guess I'll take along a hammer, some steel pins and some penetrating oil in the toolbox.
Had a new receiver made for this trip...6.5" drop...Cub hauler is sitting nicely now with all four tires tracking flat on the road. Thought this might be a good idea.
Should I direct my posts for emergency road assistance to you Jim since you're there in TX anyway. What's the most convenient time for me to call if I break down
Bigdog..could I get some work done on this one at your place if I stored it there for a couple of days? Do you have plenty of food and drink
I'll check in tomorrow..hopefully from Sweetwater, TX.

Don't worry about waiting for a convenient time to call. If you break down, just send me an email any time. I'll read it at a convenient time.
Made it to Sweetwater, TX ...720 miles from home.
Everything is going very good. The cub hauler is towing like it isn't even there. I lowered the tire pressure down to 30 psi on the trailer so there is no bouncing around.
My experience from my youth...backing telephone pole trailers into tight spots.. is coming in handy, but I'm not as good as I used to be. I guess that goes for alot of things though
Well Jim since I won't be in TX anymore after tomorrow morning I guess I'll call Bigdog if I breakdown
Hopefully by tomorrow night I will be in strikin' distance of the 59. Sure hope its as nice as it looks in the pictures he sent, and everything works.
I'll check back tomorrow again.
Take care.
Memphis TN... 1430 miles from home and closing in on cub #2. The sign across the street from the Holiday Inn says.."ELVIS..HE DARED TO ROCK."
A great day of traveling. It's nice to be back in the heartland. Living in AZ for the past fifteen years I have gained a new appreciation for this area of the good old USA where I grew up. As I got into the GREEN trees and GREEN fields of NE TX and SE AK my sinus passages cleared up and healed again. The clouds were hanging low and heavy near the ground, visibility down to about two miles, but only a very light mist of rain was falling. This kind of weather could be depressing to some but the GREEN was just overpowering to me…beautiful.
As I drove along past the small 20,30 and 40 A. pieces of ground cut into the thick tree growth that at one time had been farm fields, I wondered how many cubs had been used back then around here on those small plots. Not much of anything has been planted or even turned over yet…I guess due to all of the rain. Rivers, ponds and low-lying areas are filled to capacity.
The highway dept. was out doing their first cutting of the grass along the way. The fresh air was thick with oxygen, great smells and humidity… it was very nice for a desert guy to enjoy. Saw a couple of beautiful old grey barns and recalled john's story about the barn wood.
I saw three or four Farmall M's and H's that were dark brown, wet and rusting away in the fields along the roadway.
Had the distinct dishonor of passing the boyhood home of the dishonorable Pres. Bill Cliton…and oh yes… before I forget...be sure to mark your calendars….only 190 more days until the Cliton Library in Little Rock opens. I know many will want to be there…NOT.
Sorry for all the rambling on about green stuff. It is green where I live too, but not like this. With a little TLC and my new workin' cub maybe I will be able to make it greener in my part of AZ.
Hope to see and load up the '59 tomorrow morning over in KY.
Cub Hauler-Gitter is trackin' good..only problem so far has been a blown fuse that knocked out my traiker lights for about ten minutes.
I'll check back again tomorrow.
Take care.

Sounds like you're on a great Cubventure. We enjoy the reports keep them coming. And drive safe
watch out for blizzards and closed mountain passes
and i thought i'd traveled a fair piece for Primer Pete.. 1200 miles round trip. not compared to your little trip. very
sure hope Big dog didn't get there first
'If they're tappin', they're not burnin'
Hey now! I'm tryin' to be good!
If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.
My wife says I don't listen to her. - - - - - - - - Or something like that!
It's tough isn't it, Bigdog
Those mountain passes and the blizzard was a piece of cake. I would do it tomorrow but I'm now in Mississippi. Ain't no mountain passes here Just a lot of mud
I had my new cub up to 75 mph this afternoon. These things are very fast when you're haulin' um.
Made a fairly quick trip up the"Music Highway" today (Memphis to Nashville). It was another beautiful drive. Then just past Bowling Green into real Cub country...Kentucky. Got the '59 loaded up and headed back for Memphis about 12:30, but I had to stop along the way at Natchez Trace State Park. I had always heard it was nice and it is very nice. Got into a major converstaion about Cubs, GW and Senator Edward Kennedy with some folks there. We talked until they talked me into unloading the Cub and cutting some grass...so I did that for 20 minutes or so...Everything is OK except when the PTO is engaged and those two blades spin out they bang around alot until the rpms get up. Is that normal?
I re-loaded the Cub about 4:30...It was starting to rain. He said he was glad to finally be getting out of Kentucky.
I'm headed back west tomorrow.
Sorry that I firgot to bring my USB cable so no pictures.

Mike, Are you sure that all that spinning & banging around noises were not G.W & E.K. rattling there swords or fumblin round trying to get their dueling pistols in hand to out-do each other?.
Keep us posted. __ My money is on G.W.
Then came Bronson
Those swing-away blades will do that until the centrifugal force is sufficient to throw them out.
If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.
My wife says I don't listen to her. - - - - - - - - Or something like that!
Back in Sweetwater, TX.
It was another easy drive today…two or three brief showers, but the highway is 95% in perfect shape.
I did hit the early three o'clock part of the Friday night five o'clock Dallas commuter traffic. I would say that over half the folks in Dallas are taking off early on Friday. (Not bad, but during my working years I never worked even one Friday…there were just too many other important things to do.) Anyway, being in all of this traffic made me feel lucky to be retired. The cub gitter enabler, and the cub gitter enabler puller did well in the traffic. The trailer has good electric brakes and overall has done excellent. Even on the rougher roads, pulling off to get gas, everything bounces nice. I had some large pieces of foam rubber and two old sofa cushions to lay the sickle bar and plow on. They haven't moved an inch since I left KY. My only problem on the entire trip so far has been a blown 20 amp trailer lights fuse. I shorted the whole system out when I was trying to reconnect a light that had come loose…I touched the connector to the frame. At this point I was going to email Jim and Bigdog for emergency road service, but I had it fixed before I could. I always carry extra fuses. The truck has forty or more different fused circuits on two different fuse panels.
The more I look at this cub, the more I like it. Everything is used very little. The person I bought it from has taken very good care of everything. There is one small problem area…The spindle that connects the tie rod to the axle on the left front wheel has a small weld at the top on the axle side. I want to put up a picture of that and get your idea on how to restore it correctly The sickle bar mower still has most of the original blue paint, and the plow has no ware at all.
I have just come back inside. There was a gentleman that was doing some serious lookin at the cub so I went out and we talked about the cubs for about 20 min.
Should be rollin in the driveway tomorrow evening about 5 or 6 pm.
SUNDAY…. I'LL BE MOWIN

Adam Wagner is a writer for MMAmania.com. He is in Canada as part of the UFC 83: "Serra vs. St. Pierre 2″ Ultimate Fight Train experience. He'll blog about his whirlwind trip throughout the weekend, providing an inside account of what it's like to be in Montreal (and Toronto) when the UFC comes to town for the first time ever. Enjoy.
No time for pleasantries ... just got an interview with UFC middleweight contender, Patrick Cote, before the start of UFC 83: "Serra vs. St. Pierre 2."
Here we go:
Adam Wagner (MMAmania.com): You had to pull out of the UFC 83 fight against Alan Belcher due to a sprained knee, is that correct?
Patrick Cote: Yeah, I slipped on the ice while running outside. (Laughs) It was pretty stupid.
Adam Wagner (MMAmania.com): But you're all healed up now?
Patrick Cote: Oh yes. Everything's good. I take care of my body, and I am 100 percent now.
Adam Wagner (MMAmania.com): You next face Ricardo Almeida at UFC 86 on July 5. Almeida has some good jiu-jitsu. How do you feel you measure up and how do you plan to counter his submission attempts?
Patrick Cote: It's a big fight for me. A couple of years ago, I think five years ago, he was supposed to have a title shot before he left. He left because I think he had depression or something like that, I don't know. But he had something. But he came back at UFC 81, and he did a good job.
We wanted a big fight, so this is exactly what we wanted. He's really good on the ground. His wrestling is so-so. And on my feet, I am not scared of anyone when it comes to striking. So this will be a sprawl-n-brawl fight for me.
I moved to Montreal to train six months ago. I train with the national wrestling team here in Montreal.
Adam Wagner (MMAmania.com): So you plan to keep it standing as much as possible.
Patrick Cote: Oh yeah, sprawl-n-brawl. If the fight goes to the ground, I will get back on my feet. And if I'm on top on the ground, I'll throw him a couple of elbows and I'll get back on my feet, for sure. That's my style. I like to stand on my feet and knock out people.
Adam Wagner (MMAmania.com): Well you've won your last 3 fights via TKO in the very first round. With Almeida being a tough jiu-jitsu guy, it presents an intriguing matchup. With a solid win, where do you think that that will put you in the title shot picture?
Patrick Cote: Oh, that's what I want. And for sure this will be a clash of styles: classic jiu-jitsu vs. striker. The thing is, with my last three fights—especially with my last two fights—I knocked Drew McFedries and Kendall Grove out in the first round. I think that now, people will know not to get in a stand-up war with me.
First, I have the confidence. I have a lot of confidence in myself. If I knock out my opponent again, maybe they will put me against the champ. The thing I said to everybody, I said to Joe Silva, I said, 'We know how to beat the Champion. We know exactly how to beat him.' And I'm sure if I have a fight against him, I will beat him for sure.
But one fight at a time. Right now it is Almeida, and I have to worry about him for right now.
Adam Wagner (MMAmania.com): Have you been preparing for Almeida differently than you have in previous fights?
Patrick Cote: I'll do a lot of wrestling, and a lot of ground work too. But I'm not going to change my style. My style is on my feet and knocking people out. It's no secret to anybody. It will be a sprawl-n-brawl fight for me, and I don't think he will be able to take me down. My wrestling is improving everyday.
Adam Wagner (MMAmania.com): How many more fights do you have on your contract?
Patrick Cote: Two fights.
Adam Wagner (MMAmania.com): What do you think of the Fight Train, here? Have you had a chance to walk up and down the aisles and talk to the fans?
Patrick Cote: Yeah, I have. I think this is a really really nice idea, the Fight Train. It's crazy. It's pretty good for the fans. Everybody's happy. To put me and Forrest on the train with the fans, we can share our experiences.
Adam Wagner (MMAmania.com): When you were being interviewed for The Score's Hardcore Sports Radio, you mentioned that you will be providing ringside commentary at UFC 83 for the French pay-per-view. Is this a gig that's only for UFC 83 or is this something you plan to do moving forward?
Patrick Cote: That's for all UFC Canada in French. For each UFC event in Canada, I will be the French commentator. That's the plan; however, I only have a contract in place for this show.
Adam Wagner (MMAmania.com): Let's talk about UFC 83: Serra or St. Pierre?
Rich Franklin or Travis Lutter?
Michael Bisping or Charles McCarthy?
Kalib Starnes or Nate Quarry?
Mac Danzig or Mark Bocek?
Patrick Cote: I'm friends with both. I train with Georges. Right now, Georges is ready, he's physically ready. The thing is, we'll see how he will deal with the pressure.
You know, it's a very smart move for Serra to come to Canada. Very smart. He does not have any pressure on his shoulders when he comes to Montreal, the home town of Georges. So I think it is a very very smart move.
On paper, Georges is 10 times better than Matt. The only thing is, I can also see Matt Serra winning this fight the same way he did the first time. Anything can happen: the same thing as the first fight, or else Georges can destroy him very bad.
Adam Wagner (MMAmania.com): Well there are also a lot of very good Middleweight matchups at UFC 83. Which do you think—we have Rich Franklin vs. Travis Lutter; Michael Bisping vs. Charles McCarthy; Kalib Starnes vs. Nate Quarry; and the list goes on—which do you see as being one of the more exciting Middleweight matchups?
Patrick Cote: Probably Nate Quarry and Kalib Starnes, because they look like similar fighters, and I think it will be a good fight.
But I'm looking forward to seeing Travis Lutter and Rich Franklin. I really think that Travis is going to win, and I think he is going to win big time, in the first round. It's not that it will be a big upset, but I think he will do very well against Franklin.
Adam Wagner (MMAmania.com): Lastly, would you like to thank any sponsors, and do you have any parting words for your fans?
Patrick Cote: Yes, for everybody who helped put this train on the track, the Fight Train, MMACanada.net—everybody who was behind it—because it is really very nice. All of my sponsors for sure, and the fans. UFC in Canada, it's going to be crazy. It's going to be the biggest event in the history of the UFC. The fans in Montreal are crazy.

Pos Malaysia Launches Islamic Pawnshop Service
BANGI – Pos Malaysia Berhad today launched an Islamic pawnshop service under the brand, Ar-Rahnu@POS which complies with syariah requirements for customers to exchange jewellery for cash.
Information, Communications and Culture Deputy Minister, Datuk Maglin Dennis D'Cruz said the service would benefit the public, especially low-income earners and petty traders.
"The public will be more confident in such a service as Pos Malaysia is an agency under the ministry and the government is indirectly involved in ensuring the security of the items kept here," he told reporters after launching the service at the Pos Malaysia branch in Bandar Baru Bangi, here.
D'Cruz said the two branches offering the service here and Kuala Terengganu had given out loans amounting to RM600,000 since July. He said every transaction would be attended to promptly by trained personnel, and when extended to all 700 Pos Malaysia branches nationwide, the service would benefit those staying in the rural and remote areas.
Pos Malaysia Group chief executive officer Datuk Khalid Abdol Rahman said the service was another effort to make the post offices into one-stop centres.
He said the service was capable of eradicating poverty by providing financing for petty traders and enabling borrowings without interest.
"The market for this syariah-based service is up to RM2 billion. We feel the service will be hugely beneficial to the public and we target ArRahnu@POS to become a core business in Malaysia," he said.
Khalid said 50 ArRahnu@POS branches were targeted to be set up nationwide for the financial year ending March next year, and 50 more in the next financial year.
ArRahnu@POS is strategic cooperation between Pos Malaysia (80 per cent equity) and Muamalat Bank (20 per cent). Both are under the DRB-Hicom Group.
Handled by Pos ArRahnu Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of Pos Malaysia, ArRahnu@POS accepts jewellery with not less than 75 per cent gold, with a keeping fee of 60-80 sen a month for every RM100 value of gold, depending on the market value.
The maximum loan is RM100,000 for a customer with a maturity period of six months which can be extended subject to certain terms and conditions. – BERNAMA

Real Wedding: A Handmade Tale in New England
A DIY mentality is the first step towards a one-of-a-kind wedding.
Holly Curtis and Billy Vreeland
Holly Curtis, 28, frequently called her boyfriend, Billy Vreeland, 27, "B," and he, in turn, began playfully calling her "Bee." The nicknames proved quite appropriate when the couple got engaged, as they printed, sewed, sourced, and designed almost every aspect of the wedding themselves—two busy bees, indeed. Guests got a taste of the couple's crafty style from the start, with invitations printed on vintage handkerchiefs. At the wedding, in Buzzards Bay, Massachusetts, they encountered floral-fabric button place cards that corresponded to their napkins (all made by Holly) and homemade-cake centerpieces baked by a friend of the bride. And at dinner, guests had antique bells to ring when they wanted the couple to kiss—one tiny touch that created the biggest buzz of all.

Every angler who owns a trailerable boat dreams of taking it to fish-filled destinations. There's freedom in having your rig and gear with you to muck about inshore or offshore.
Take your time and dabble, or spend all available moments devoted to a feverish mission. First sailfish or marlin? Take-home trout fillets? You control the timing and the pace.
Numerous North American ports hold excellent fishing opportunities, but some destinations stand out because they're either heavily favored by adventure-seekers or they're gems tucked in out-of-the-way places. Over the next seven pages, we'll show you three. And check out our expert tips for safe trailering to any destination.
Road to Paradise
Mexico's magnificent Sea of Cortez is well worth the tow
By Bill Boyce
With news of drug cartels and bandits, the notion of towing your boat to Mexico might give you the jitters, regardless of how many fish await south of the border. Should it be considered? If your destination is the Sea of Cortez, the answer is yes.
Cradled between the Mexican mainland and the mountainous Baja California peninsula, the Sea of Cortez (aka Gulf of California) is a spectacle of natural beauty and awesome fishing for species such as dorado, striped marlin, roosterfish, sailfish, yellowfin tuna and more.
The most popular road to this angling paradise is Mexico Highway 1, Baja's 1,060-mile main artery. It's just two lanes with few shoulders or turnouts along most of its length, and it cuts through blistering deserts and tortuous inclines.
Still, Americans safely tow their boats every day to seaside towns such as Bahia de Los Angeles, Santa Rosalia, Mulege, Loreto, La Paz and Cabo San Lucas, as well as sleepy fishing villages in between. Here's how they do it.
With few road services, your towing rig needs to be in top shape. Pay special attention to tires (including the spare), brakes, belts and hoses, as well as filters, fluid levels, battery and alternator.
Most Baja trailer boaters use ¾-ton pickups with either gasoline or diesel engines. Quality fuel is readily available at Pemex stations along the highway, with relatively low prices thanks to Mexican government fuel subsidies.
If you plan to launch and retrieve your boat on unimproved ramps, four-wheel drive is a must.
There is a tendency to load extra gear in the boat for Baja, so make sure the trailer is not overloaded. A multi-axle trailer is more stable and, should you get a flat trailer tire, lets you limp to the nearest turnout (which could be miles away).
Have everything inspected, paying special attention to bearings and seals, the brake system, wheels and tires. When it comes to spare tires for trailers, there is a simple rule for Baja: You can't have too many. Two spares is the minimum.
There is no ideal boat for fishing the Sea of Cortez, but most you see in Baja are between 20 and 26 feet in length. There seems to be an even split between outboard and sterndrive power.
No matter what size the boat, if it breaks in Baja, it is tough to find a mechanic or the parts to fix it, though your first priority might be finding a tow back to the ramp if you break down at sea. There are no commercial towing services in this part of the world.
Preventing a breakdown is the key, and this means meticulous boat maintenance and service ahead of time.
Baja can take a toll on equipment, particularly if you need to tow on an unpaved road for any distance. These dusty, washboardlike roads can rattle bolts loose and damage equipment. After a long tow, check out everything on the boat, as well as the trailer.
Safety in Numbers
To increase the safety factor, travel in a caravan with three or more other trailer boats. Nefarious types are less likely to target large groups. The U.S. club Vagabundos del Mar regularly organizes caravans of Baja-bound trailer boaters.
The other benefit of a caravan is that if you break down — on the road or on the water — others in the group are there to lend assistance and share spare parts.
Whether in a group or not, drive only in daylight hours, as animals such as cattle and burros tend to wander onto the roads at night.
Fishing Options
Dorado — April through November are the best months to find dorado (aka dolphin or mahimahi). They range from the tip of the Baja up to Bahia de Los Angeles. Feathers, small marlin lures and Rapalas work great. Cortez dorado find live baits such as Pacific mackerel irresistible. Look for dorado under any floating object such as driftwood or weed lines. The waters off Loreto are famous for dorado in late June and early July.
Striped marlin — May through December are the best months for "stripers" near Baja's tip, with June and July being peak months farther north in the Sea of Cortez. Abundance can vary from year to year, but these marlin — which average about 120 pounds — can be thick. Live Pacific mackerel cast to "tailing" fish is the most popular method. Trolled lures catch their share as well, but dropping back a live mackerel once a marlin appears behind the lures results in a higher hookup ratio.
Roosterfish — May through November are the best months in the lower Cortez to find roosterfish along the sandy beaches and inshore reefs. Live baits work best for the larger 40- to 60-pound fish. Small ladyfish work especially well for roosterfish.
Sailfish — June to October are excellent months to find Pacific sailfish as far up the Gulf as the Midriff Islands. Small marlin lures work great for these hungry billfish, and a live-bait offering is rarely ignored. Cortez sails are usually less than 100 pounds, but larger fish are sometimes caught.
Yellowfin tuna — From April on into November, throughout much of the lower Cortez you will find yellowfin tuna associated with porpoise schools. Trolling feathers and cedar plugs around the schools typically gets action if the tuna are hungry. Sizes range from "footballs" of less than 10 pounds to brutes in excess of 100 pounds.
California yellowtail — These upper Cortez favorites are found year-round, but they peak from May through November. Heavy metal jigs (worked yo-yo style near the bottom), trolled Rapalas and live Pacific mackerel all catch their share of these powerful jacks, which reach weights of 40 pounds or more.
With scores of other species — including several varieties of pargo (snappers), grouper, jacks and croaker — and breathtaking scenery, the Sea of Cortez is the ultimate trailer-boating getaway. Prepare your rig properly and drive carefully, and this angling paradise is yours to experience aboard your own boat.
