Human beings, by nature, can be very self conscious. Said to have been created in the image and likeness of God, they strive to achieve physical perfection in every way possible.
They would want to maintain proper physical fitness, attain a healthier lifestyle and ensure that their skin remains flawless.
With regard to the latter, it makes perfect sense considering that the skin is actually the largest and most visible organ in the human body.
With that said, one would undergo a great loss of confidence whenever stretch mark problems arise.
Stretch marks have long been the bane of most women in the world, being such vain and self conscious creatures who wish to beautify themselves in every way possible.
It becomes a nuisance for them to have to go out in public and wear clothes that reveal their arms and legs, only to showcase these streaks in thin, discolored skin.
These are often caused by weight gain, pregnancy or even weight loss. However, men also suffer from such, especially when they wish to gain muscle mass.
In fact, any situation wherein the skin becomes stretched due to any abrupt physical changes can lead to such a condition. It can become a reason for insecurities and low self esteem. Having stretch mark problems can make a person feel truly unattractive.
Below are some additional matters to consider regarding this condition.
- Also known as striae, these are pinkish streaks of thinned out skin which can heal over time and appear more silvery in hue. However, the collagen fibers in the dermis have ruptured, which then can be seen through the thin outer layer of skin, the epidermis. There are several people in the world who suffer from such marks, especially women, since pregnancy is perhaps the main reason why these marks appear on their skin. It leaves them reluctant to wear highly revealing clothing or even take a chance in wearing swimsuits or bikinis at the beach.
- Another reason for why such a condition appears is due to genetics. Perhaps one's mother or father had been suffering from several stretch marks, and this can be passed down unto their children. Teenagers would get to suffer from this, especially since their bodies are still developing, slowly transitioning into the adult phase. This simply means physical changes that may be abrupt, such as the enlargement of muscles and the lengthening of bones.
- Stretch marks often vary in size, and the bigger they are, the worse a person can feel about him or herself. However, these can still be treated. In fact, there are several products out in the market, such as creams or ointments, which can improve a person's skin quality. They would often contain herbal extracts and vitamins & minerals which can help promote the natural production of collagen in the skin, thus making the healing process a lot faster and leading to the improvement of one's complexion as well. Another method for getting relief from stretch marks is laser surgery, though it may be a bit more expensive.
Stretch mark problems can truly be degrading to a person's self-esteem. Yet, they can still be remedied, and one doesn't have to live with them for the rest of his or her life.

Sports News
George Karl named NBA's Coach of the Year
The Denver Nuggets may have made a first round exit from the NBA playoffs, but the team's coach was recently named the best in basketball. George Karl earned Coach of the Year honors on Wednesday for his work helping guide a young Nuggets team to a surprise postseason berth, The Associated Press reports.
It wasn't just that the Nuggets made the playoffs that earned Karl the distinction, it's how they got there. He helped lead them to 57 wins - a team record - and did so all without a big name player on their roster. Ty Lawson, who led the team with 16.7 points per game, is arguably the squad's most recognizable player, but he is certainly not a household name. Despite his impressive job on the sidelines, Karl was humble in accepting the award.
"I am honored and energized to represent coaching and be their ambassador as coach of the year and continue to symbolize the great coaching there is in the NBA," he said in a statement.
This is the first time that Karl has won the Coach of the Year award, but he has been among the most respected coaches in the league for years. He has coached five teams during his more than 30-year career.

Lola and the Boy Next Door
By: Stephanie Perkins
Release Date: September 29, 2011
Published by: Dutton Books (Penguin)
For budding costume designer Lola Nolan, the more outrageous, the outfit – more sparkly, more fun, more wild – the better. But even though Lola's style is outrageous, she's a devoted daughter and friend with some big plans for the future. And everything is pretty perfect (right down to her hot rocker boyfriend) until the dreaded Bell twins move back into the house next door.
When the family returns and Cricket – a gifted inventor and engineer – steps out from his twin sister's shadow and back into Lola's life, she must finally reconcile a lifetime of feelings for the boy next door.
Yes please! The fact that I don't have as long of a wait between Lola and Anna is about the only good thing about waiting to read Anna and the French Kiss! I love that we actually get to see Cricket on the cover

Comedy legend Paul Mooney to play Helium Club
- Written by Rita Charleston
- Published in Entertainment
He made his mark writing for comics like Richard Pryor. He also wrote for "Good Times" and "Sanford and Son" in the '70s. In the early 1980s, he developed signature characters for "In Living Color" including Homey the Clown.
His words are known by many. Still comedian, writer, social critic, television and film actor Paul Mooney has not become a household name himself.
But that makes no difference to Mooney, set to take the stage at the Helium Comedy Club on Sansom Street, May 2-5.
"I love what I do and I always knew I would end up doing it. And that's all I really care about," he said.
Born in Shreveport, La., and moving to Oakland, Calif., several years later, Mooney first became a ringmaster with the Gatti-Charles Circus. During his stint as ringmaster, he always found himself writing comedy and telling jokes, which later helped him land his first professional work as a writer for Pryor.
Mooney wrote some of Pryor's routines for his appearance on "Saturday Night Live," co-wrote his material for the "Live on the Sunset Strip, Bicentennial Nigger," "Is It Something I Said" albums, as well as the film "Jo Jo Dancer, Your Life is Calling."
Mooney says writing for Pryor — as well as many other young comics including Robin Williams, Sandra Bernhard, Eddie Murphy, Marsha Warfield and others — was easy once he got to know them.
"Once I got to know them, really know them, once I could really get into their heart and soul, it was easy to write for them because at that point I knew the essence of the person. And once that happens, I can write for people. Otherwise, I can't," he explains.
Among his other writing accomplishments, Mooney wrote for Redd Foxx's "Sanford and Son," acted in several cult classics including Which Way Is Up?," "Bustin' Loose," "Hollywood Shuffle" and more.
He has appeared in sketches including Negrodamus, an African-American version of Nostradamus. As Negrodamus, Mooney once ad-libbed the "answers to life's most unsolvable mysteries such as 'Why do white people love Wayne Brady?' (Answer: 'Because Wayne Brady makes Bryant Gumbel look like Malcolm X.'). Mooney had planned to reprise his role as Negrodamus in the third season of the "Chappelle's Show" before it was cancelled.
Much of Mooney's material is based on the subject of racism in the United States. which disturbs some audience members. But controversy has always accompanied Mooney and his comic material, and he doesn't shy away from that fact.
"I do a lot of racial stuff because we live in America and my comedy is a reflection of my environment," he said. "I think we're blessed to live in a country with freedom of speech so I can speak my mind. We're blessed to live in a place where I can make fun of things I see and not be taken out and shot."
Long considered a living legend, Mooney explains that he can't think of any of today's young comics he would pay to see. He says, "I've worked with all the great minds from Richard Pryor to Flip Wilson to Redd Foxx to Moms Mabley. The only people left are Bill Cosby and Dick Gregory. After they go, it's all over with. I'm truly the last of my kind."
And his followers hope he'll be around for a long, long time to come. As does the man of comedy himself. "I'll never retire," he said. "I'll be performing as long as I can. I feel most alive when I'm on stage."

City pursues right to torture and humiliate detainees
After losing twice, City Attorney takes case before 'en banc' court Thursday, 3/26, 10am, 95 7th St., Courtroom 1
Since then, a U.S. District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiffs, who had filed a class-action lawsuit against SFSD for their strip search and cold cell policies. But instead of accepting the ruling, the City Attorney filed an appeal. Last year, the City lost its appeal – a three-judge panel of the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals heard the arguments and also ruled in favor of the plaintiffs.
The City Attorney then requested an "en banc" hearing before 11 judges of the federal appellate court. The hearing will take place this Thursday, March 26, at 10 a.m. in Courtroom 1, Third Floor, U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit, located at 95 Seventh St. in San Francisco.
"One has to ask why the City is pursuing policies that outrage both San Franciscans and our political leaders," said Sister Bernie Galvin, an advocate for the rights of homeless people and a plaintiff in the lawsuit. "It really doesn't make moral sense. Similar class-action lawsuits have been won in lower courts and then settled in counties far less progressive than San Francisco, including Sacramento and Dade."
Mary Bull, another plaintiff in the lawsuit, was forcibly strip-searched and then left naked for 14 hours in a "cold cell" after being arrested at an anti-war demonstration in November 2002. Bull stated, "When we were in mediation with city attorneys, I was shocked when they suggested they could win in the U.S. Supreme Court, given Bush administration policies that were soft on civil rights.
"The sad thing is, they may be right: The Bush-stacked Supreme Court may overturn all the hard-won victories against civil rights abuses in county jails and, ironically, San Francisco, considered one of the most progressive cities on earth, would be responsible for that travesty."
Jonah Zern summed up the feelings of many of the plaintiffs: "The treatment of prisoners in U.S. prisons laid the foundation for torture in Abu Ghraib in Iraq, and many will attest that conditions here are not that different. Illegal strip searches in the San Francisco County Jail must be addressed as part of a larger effort to stop the terrible human rights abuses affecting over 2 million prisoners currently held in the United States."
For more information, contact civil rights attorney Mark Merin at firstname.lastname@example.com or plaintiff Mary Bull at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Francisco Da Costa
This nonsense of arresting human beings and leaving them NAKED for hours in cold cells must stop. Dennis Herrera the City Attorney better have his head examined and stop wasting tax payers money. Every human being has rights – and they are laid down in the constitution of the United States of America, the California Constitution, and more in the United Nation – Bill of Rights. San Francisco calls itself – progressive but in case after case – it has shown its RACIST colors.↓

Carolina Beach Police Beat: Crosswalk Safety
- Details
- Published on Wednesday, 07 November 2012 12:23
- Written by Super User
By STEVE STANTON
Carolina Beach Police Advisory Cmt.
CAROLINA BEACH - Crosswalk safety has recently become a much discussed issue across the state of North Carolina. The City of Wilmington recently started an initiative which will target drivers and pedestrians that do not adhere to North Carolina State Law regarding crosswalks.
Over 2,200 pedestrians are injured or killed on streets in the Tarheel State each year by cars.
Carolina Beach, especially in its Central Business District (CBD), has several marked pedestrian crosswalks. Although the busy tourist season is over and pedestrian traffic is diminished, the crosswalk laws remain intact.
There are distinct laws regarding marked crosswalks, unmarked crosswalks and crosswalks with signals.
Each has a responsibility for the driver and the pedestrian.
In crosswalks that are unmarked, pedestrians have the right of way once they start to cross. Drivers must yield to the pedestrian.
In crosswalks that are marked, normally with white blocks running across the street, drivers must yield to pedestrians in the crosswalk.
A common conflict regarding the pedestrian right of way occurs at the marked crosswalk near the intersection of Atlanta and South Lake Park Blvd. Drivers must yield to pedestrians as they cross at this point.
The crosswalk intersections on Lake Park Blvd and Winner, Harper and Cape Fear are intersections with special "Walk" and Don't Walk" signals. Pedestrians crossing with special pedestrian signals have the right of way just as they do with a green light.
The law does require a driver to use the horn when a pedestrian may be affected by a turning vehicle and the pedestrian is crossing against the signal or traffic light.
Safe drivers always give the pedestrian the right of way, whether the pedestrian is correct or not.
Drivers and pedestrians both need to be mindful the responsibilities they both have in keeping Carolina Beach accident free for walkers and drivers.
Drivers in the CBD need to mindful of the speed limit and watching for pedestrians that may or may not know the law.
The next meeting of the Carolina Beach Police Advisory Committee will be conducted on Monday, January 7, 2013 in the CB Police Training Room, at the rear of Town Hall.
Residents are welcome to bring their concerns to the meeting.

Mike Munchak will be back in 2013 as the Titans' head coach, owner Bud Adams told PFW correspondent Jim Wyatt of The Tennessean.
Tennessee finished Munchak's second season with a record of 6-10 after going 9-7 in 2011. The Titans beat the Jaguars 38-20 in the regular-season finale, which followed a 55-7 loss to the Packers.
The Titans lost six games by at least three touchdowns.
Adams did say he plans to relieve senior executive vice president/COO Mike Reinfeldt of his duties. Reinfeldt has worked for 32 NFL seasons and has been with Tennessee since 2007.

Former Dolphins ORT Eric Laakso passed away due to natural causes on Christmas Day; he was 54 years old.
Laakso played for Miami from 1978-84 and was the starting right tackle on the franchise's 1982 and '84 Super Bowl teams. He played in 86 career games, including 48 consecutive starts.
"I was saddened to learn about the passing of Eric Laakso, who left us at far too early an age," said Nat Moore, a former teammate of Laakso's and currently a Dolphins senior advisor, in a statement issued by the team. "Early in his career he played with some of the great linemen from the Dolphins' two world championship teams such as Bob Kuechenberg, Jim Langer and Larry Little, and then bridged the gap to play on an offensive line with Dwight Stephenson, Ed Newman, Jon Giesler and others who helped lead Miami back to two more Super Bowls. He was an inspirational player who was always viewed as a team leader. He will be missed by his teammates, and on behalf of the Dolphin organization I want to express my condolences to his family."

Dear neighbors,
It must be Spring Training or something!
It was someone's idea to play a prank on our good-humored friend, Hal, by listing his name as supporting formation of an independent and autonomous city council and government that has no obligation to serve the interests, needs and advisory of our neighbors and neighborhoods.
That sure sounds like something our HAL would support, now doesn't it!
It is only a prank. Just laugh at it, Hal!

It is sad how cavalier our concern for our freedoms become at our most local level. We are offered nothing but more of the same by governments and their supporters. Then we are asked to sacrifice our rights of self-determination to some further level of government that promises nothing more than those we have.
How casual our concerns are in the eyes of those who will not care,

|He doesn't charge by the hour

A friend's comment on Facebook spurred this John Tesh digression.
She said her therapist weighed 5 pounds and was covered in fur.
Amen, sister.
What is better than coming home from a hard day at work and seeing that little guy or girl that is so happy to see you? Nothing. Well, maybe a few other things but not here.
Who better to pour out the frustrations of the day to than someone who is always going to agree with you? This is a no-brainer.
We've already been over the obvious benefits of having a dog. They are great companions. They like to play. They love unconditionally. They don't want to borrow the car. They won't be going to college.
Pets, including cats, ferrets and hamsters and such, can lower blood pressure. Studies have shown that Alzheimer's patients have fewer anxious outbursts if there is an animal in the home. Researchers say heart attack patients who have pets survive longer than those without, according to several studies. Male pet owners have less sign of heart disease - lower triglyceride and cholesterol levels - than non-owners.
The benefits, both physical and emotional are proven.
What they do is steal your heart and make it so you are just as excited to see them when you get home.
I love to bury my face in Ringo's neck when I move in for a hug. It's so soft and feels so good. He's the perfect size for hugging. Unfortunately, he has to be in the mood for hugging.
Jodi Arias update.
How interesting is it that Arizona is one of the few states where during a trial, the jury can ask questions of the defendant as well. I was unaware this was even an option and in the good faith of seeing justice prevail, I think it should be allowed everywhere.
How many times have you seen an interview with a juror after a trial and they had questions that weren't answered and sometimes not even addressed? Well, in Arizona you get to at least attempt to find your own answers. I think during a trial, especially one as serious as this one, the jury should have as much information as possible.
Jodi Arias has been on the stand for weeks now. I think it's been too long and I agree with the analysts who think all that face time with the jury will foster an attachment and they won't be able to put her on death row. They may not like her and they may not believe her but she's become a fixture in their lives. I don't think they are going to be able to give her the death penalty.
I can't believe I have let myself be caught up in this. I'm afraid I am going to be on jury watch with the rest of the HLN nation. I can't even believe I'm writing this but it has me sucked in. It's a train wreck. I can't look away.
Where's Ringo? I need a hug.

FORT STOCKTON- The boom and bust on the oil patch isn't slowing a $1.3 billion dollar project outside of Fort Stockton. The towering cranes and feverish construction is good sight for Tomas Larralde, Senator Carlos Uresti's Chief of Staff who made a stop in Fort Stockton to meet with city leaders.
"It comes at a critical time." Larralde said local leaders have focused on economic development and job creation.
"We're not waiting for stimulus. We're moving forward with jobs and hopefully putting money in the people's pockets so they can spend and help the economy grow not only here but throughout West Texas," he said.
City leaders say the Century Gas Plant is the second largest project in the state at $1.3 billion dollars. Sandridge Energy, Inc. will eventually pipe it's natural gas from Pinon field east of the site and Occidental Petroleum Corporation will run the gas plant. Currently 150 employees have been hired by International Alliance Group (IAG) based out of Houston which is building the plant.
"The drilling is down pretty much in all West Texas. They're going to employ people to work there. It's going to help our economy stay stable," Mayor Ruben Falcon said.
Construction is only 15 percent complete but crews have projected the plant will be online by Summer 2010. At the site, crews will use equipment to separate out Methane and CO2 to be shipped and sold around the country.
Company officials say they've brought in specialists but IAG is hiring many workers from West Texas through Work Force Solutions.
"Oil field workers, they're very familiar with what we do. There is work available," Jon Tanner, resident engineer for IAG, said.
In November, Tanner says the number of construction jobs on the project will more than double to 400.

Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indiana University's trustees have approved an average 1.75 percent tuition increase for most students each of the next two years.
University officials say the plan approved Wednesday will increase tuition for full-time in-state students by about $175 a year. That will make tuition and fees at the Bloomington campus about $10,200 for the coming school year.
The Herald-Times reports IU President Michael McRobbie told trustees meeting in Indianapolis that the proposal was the lowest tuition increase possible while ensuring world-class educational opportunities for students.
Tuition increases at IUPUI and IU's regional campuses also will increase by an average of 1.75 percent, although those rates will vary.
IU's tuition increase is about the same as what Ball State plans, while Purdue is freezing tuition at its West Lafayette campus.

A former Longview city councilwoman has been charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon
after police say she beat her roommate with a golf club.
Longview police said 59-year-old
Karen Hailey began yelling at and hitting her roommate when he tried to leave
the apartment. Police say that's when Hailey picked up a golf club and started
hitting the roommate for several minutes. The roommate finally called police.
In 2007, Hailey was charged
with assault after police say she attacked her brother with a staple gun.
Hailey served on the city council from 2002 to 2006. She declined to run for
reelection after allegations in 2004 that she sent racially charged emails to
fellow council members.

Boffins turn to Wii tech for speech-loss therapy
Researchers at London's City University are to try out motion control gaming hardware - Nintendo's Wii Remote, Microsoft's Kinect and Sony's PlayStation Move - to see if the technology can help stroke victims cheaply and easily regain the power to communicate. One of the likely outcomes of a stroke is aphasia, effectively the …
No, I will not provide a title.
Shame MS downgraded Kinect's camera at the last minute, killing the chance for sign language reading. It might have been useful for this type of application. Better than making subjects grip a dildo^H^H^H^H^H^H controller.
Then, again, can you imagine a Microsoft patient care app?
'It looks like you're trying to summon a nurse, do you want help with that? Are you sure?'
'You appear to be turning blue, please adjust the camera so I can see you properly'
Oh no I can see clippy making a return :(

Wow, can't wait to run out to volunteer to assist those that ride 5 abreast on our local roads, regularly run red lights and have a sense of entitlement as wide as a box car. The "tighties" as we call them feel that none of the rules of the road apply to them and even had the county put up signs that read, "Share the Road" for car drivers to see. This doesn't apply to them of course as they are special and above the law.
on Mar 12, 2013 at 7:37 am
Doesn't Amgen make one of the drugs abused in blood doping? Isn't this like a steroid-maker sponsoring pro wrasslin' or the NFL, or maybe Pollos Hermanos underwriting a monster truck rally, if you know what I mean and I think that you do?
on Mar 12, 2013 at 8:45 am
William, as a tightie, I appreciate your frustration with those riders who commit the infractions you describe. I'd be careful however to use such a wide brush. If so then I can assume that every Danville driver is threat to my safety as they roll through stop signs, accelrate to beat red lights (usually failing) and regularly drive over the SOLID white line that guards the bike lane because they are distracted or texting. I obey the rules of the road. It's to bad drivers don't feel an obligation to do the same.
As for Carninal - ignorance is bliss.

Using NOKIAs VoIP Client since an E65 some years ago up to use this service in an N86 and now the N8 I observed this strange behaviour when setting up a new VoIP service:
Unfortunately the "Advanced VoIP Settings" for Symbian^3 seem to have a BUG compared with the earlier versions for earlier Symbian versions. I use an N86 and voip just works fine there - even over VPN tunneled to my home SIP and VPN server.
The bug is in the configuration of the SIP profiles / VoIP services.
On N86 you may first configure a SIP profile (incl. a single individual "default access point"), then switch to "Advanced VoIP Settings > create new service" and you will find there the newly created SIP account to activate as a "service".
Or you may do it the other way round: Go to "Advanced VoIP Settings > create new service" and configure there the basic data of your SIP profile (public user name and password). This creates a SIP Profile where you only need to configure either a "default destination" for access or a single individual "default access point".
Now, on N8 when I configure a SIP Profile first and then create the corresponding VoIP service I can do this - BUT TO THIS VOIP SERVICE I CANNOT LOGIN!
If creating the service the other way round > creating the VoIP Service and thus creating the corresponding SIP Profile in THIS SIP PROFILE NO INDIVIDUAL "DEFAULT ACCESS POINT" CAN BE CHOSEN - "INTERNET" IS PREDETERMINED AS "DEFAULT DESTINATION" AND CANNOT BE CHANGED (unless you configure also VPN - in this case you can also choose "intranet" instead of "internet").
The possibility to configure an individual "default access point" in a SIP Profile is in certain circumstances important when using VPN!

Could anyone clarify on how to connect to the phone over RFCOMM using python? I'm sure this is meant to be easy but for some reason my python code on the phone does not receive the connection from the PC. My phone code looks like this: (borrowed from the other thread talking about the socket._sock bug)
from socket import *
s = socket(AF_BT, SOCK_STREAM)
p = bt_rfcomm_get_available_server_channel(s._sock)
s.bind(("", p))
bt_advertise_service( u"asdf", s._sock, True, RFCOMM)
set_security(s._sock, AUTHOR)
print 'Listening...'
print 'After Listening'
conn, addr = s.accept()
print "connected to", addr
data = conn.recv(1)
Then I connect to the phone from my PC using PySerial, connecting to COM4. The code on the phone never receives the connection: it gets as far as to print the 'After Listening' message but it never receives a connection to print the "connected to" message. But, and I found this weird: I don't think I'm connecting to the wrong COM port, because the phone still comes up with the "do you want to accept the connection from <me>?" prompt.
So it seems the connection is getting to my phone, but not my python code? This seems confirmed by the fact my code is using AUTHOR so it should authorize incoming connections but when I connect, it still prompts for authentication.
My PySerial code is very simple, just:
import serial
ser = serial.Serial(3)
# after the above line, the phone pops up the authentication message
# now the code will just hang, I guess it has nothing at the other end to write to?
Thanks very much if anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated.
(On another note, can OBEX files be sent from the PC to the phone using python? Can a file object be somehow wrapped into an OBEX object?)

NORMAL, Ill.-- Young performers from throughout Central Illinois gathered on Friday to show off their talents.
More than 50 kids ages 3 to 7 spent the week learning from Illinois State University's Gamma Phi Circus performers.
On Friday morning, Metcalf School was filled with proud parents of the newest and youngest Gamma Phi additions.
William Keltner of Peoria said, "It encourages kids to get out and try different things that they probably wouldn't get to try at a gymnastics class or dance class. It also gets them performing and gets them lots of exercise and a chance to meet different kids than they would during the year."
Keltner signed his daughter Willow up to give her the chance to learn from the performers she admires.
Keltner said, "Willow has gone to see several different circuses and has been fascinated by them every time. So we signed her up for this to see if she would enjoy doing it."
Willow said, "This is an awesome day for me and daddy."
The final performance of the camp gave children the chance to balance on beams, swing from hoops and tight-rope walk like the pros.
Junior circus director Kim Walker-Smith says the skills the kids are learning are not only useful in circus acts but life in general.
Walker-Smith said, "All these circus skills are developmental and so if they can learn very fundamental skills of balancing and being able to coordinate their bodies then they are going to be challenged to try other circus skills and other skills in general."
Walker-Smith says the camp is also a tool to groom the next generation of Gamma Phi Circus performers.

Better options for mulchby David Rogers
During a recent trip to Lowe's, I found the choices of mulch available to be somewhat limited. There was a red-dyed type (ugh) and a type made of cypress.
Not wanting either, I headed for the nearby Home Depot, where there were supplies of pine nugget mulch in stock.
Harvesting cypress from wetlands in Florida and Louisiana leaves coastal areas more vulnerable to storm erosion — and strips those areas of an important part of their ecological system.
This year, Wal-Mart stopped buying and selling cypress mulch harvested and manufactured in Louisiana after environmental coalitions mounted an awareness campaign, Other major stores (ahem) continue to sell cypress mulch.
When you or your gardener head to the store for mulch, stick to other choices.
Let's leave cypress trees in the swamp.

5 out of 5 stars Tummy Tuck
Ronda's 2010 Bodywork - Florida
I did quite a bit of research on my own before picking Dr. B and his staff. I had a clear picture of what I wanted and reasonable expectations of the outcome. I made sure I had help at home and someone to take me to follow-up appointments, which by the way were 2 hours away. The entire staff at Dr. B's were just wonderful. The hospital, which was Flowers Hospital, in Dothan, Alabama, were just as wonderful. Dr. B told me my surgery would be 5 hours long..well, in my case, there was a problem when he opened my chest...BOTH implant were ruptured and goo filled my chest. My surgery ended up being 9 hours long..but what a wonderful job he did. I had no idea that had ruptured and the 4 week old mammogram did not reflect a rupture, either. It took us all by surprise.

In the Army; Need Some Guidance :) - Alabama, AL
Dr. Baker was an easy choice for this procedure. On top of being certified by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and American Board of Plastic Surgery, he also belongs to the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, which is not an easy task to find. He was also selected to participate in the Mentor Core Gel Study which served to gain the FDA's approval of silicone gel in 2006. Dr. Baker was extremely knowledgeable and friendly, and he suggested going over the muscle because I'm still in the military and can't afford to wait around for months to regain chest muscle strength to do push-ups. I'm glad he suggested this and am extremely happy with the results. The ladies at Dothan Plastic Surgery are so nice and always available to answer any question. Lord knows I've called them many times and each time they've treated me with kindness and caring. If you live far away and an make the trip to see this doctor and his staff for your surgery, you will not regret it. He is more than qualified to work on your girls and will give you amazing results.

Brandi Flores Breast Augmentation - Dothan, AL
After researching and asking his prior patient's I got my nerve up to get a breast augmentation. He never tried to pressure me into doing it and was very direct about what to expect from it. I had my surgery done at Flowers Hospital, and the staff was wonderful! The nurse told me about a procedure he did for a lady from Venezuela two weeks befor mine, and that made me feel more confident in him. I went up two cup sizes beautifully. I hardly have a scar and I have no ripples with my saline implants at all! I highly recommend D. Baker over any other doctor. He and his staff have been so helpful to me. Thanks to him, I now have more confidence in myself.

One driver is believed to have suffered minor injuries in the crash.

I'd say a car intending to go straight on towards Rushbottom Lane has set off on the wrong traffic light. I have seen this happen so many times. The left traffic light changes (to a green LEFT TURN arrow) and other lanes think the light has changed for them and go straight on. But I'm not sure, there are a couple of other common mistakes people make there, I have to say it's not the best road layout.

Shoppers are looking to spend more this holiday season. A new survey out shows more people are putting extra money into their holiday spending this year.
Experts say these are the best responses they have received since 2007. More shoppers this year said they are putting more money into their spending, but of course it is important for people not to put themselves in debt to do it.
Those same experts say if a person has to go into debt to cover their holiday spending, pay those bills off as quickly as possible.
Of course remember to think of the holidays as a meaningful time instead of a season just for gift giving and receiving.

I LOVE this mower. This has been my summer of lawnmower heartbreak. My old mower doesn't work, and is probably fixable, but I don't have the time for that. Meanwhile, the grass continues to grow and needs mowing. I want to trust the experts who sell these things because they have knowledge I don't have about features and benefits of the various machines, as well as what would work best on my terrain (hill front and back, sideyards are flat strips on both sides). I was first talked into a high-end self-propelled mower. I liked NOTHING about that mower. Self-propelled mowers WON'T move backwards, so there is no mowing back over a small area that seemed to be missed, or maneuvering in and out of tight spaces. The mower was so heavy it pulled me down the hill sideways (scary). Rear wheel drive self-propelled machines tend to spin like a car stuck in a snow drift (I found that out AFTER purchase), so I had ruts all over the yard. After the spinning, I had to push hard to get it to start to move in a forward motion. So much for the ease of self-propelled. Turned out to be more of a detriment than a benefit. I couldn't bear the thought of mowing, so that mower had to go back. Next, the high rear wheel machine. Definitely not as maneuverable as my old machine, but basically okay. Then a home improvement store cheapie that was well reviewed. That mower was lightweight and easy to use, but would cut no lower than 4", and left a 3" wide swath along the curb and along the concrete mowing strip. Both areas had to be trimmed by hand. Way too much hand work, and who wants to mow twice a week to keep up with the long grass?
Getting desperate for a simple mower that would work, I turned to Sears. Finding a plain old-fashioned mower that is NOT self-propelled and doesn't have specialty wheels is not easy. Of the few available, this one seemed like the best. The mower box was easily loaded into my mini-van, and easily unloaded by me, a 5'8" 56 year old woman about 145 lb. The salesman showed me what I would need to do to set up the handle. I added oil according to the instructions, and poured in the gas. Set up time took no more than a few minutes. Because of my last experience with the 4" tall grass on the lowest mower setting, I set these mower wheels to the lowest possible setting. The mower started easily with one pull. Started to mow, and WOW! This machine actually cuts grass. It was clear that the lowest setting was going to scalp the yard, so I easily adjusted the wheels to a higher setting.
I typically mow and then cross-cut each time I cut the grass. Not necessary with this mower. It cuts a nice clean swath the first time around. The mower deck DOES extend beyond the width of the wheels, as detailed in the product description. - The curb and concrete mowing strips were cut clean and beautifully; no hand edging needed.
This mower is easy to start, easy to use, easy to push uphill, easy to maneuver around obstacles, has easily adjusted wheel height, is lightweight, and sturdy. I especially like the fabulously designed "flow through" wheels that are easily sprayed clean of grass and dirt from both sides.
I am very glad to have found this mower. Based on my previous three disasters, I was beginning to despair of finding a simple lawnmower like they used to make, and was wondering if it was just me. I was expecting to soon see my picture with a line through it in the yard machine departments of the big box stores. I don't have to dread mowing anymore.
Thanks, Sears!

I chose to purchase the Craftsman mower after having purchased more than one of the cheap discount store mowers that seem to last on average of three years. My parents have used Craftsman mowers for years and have had success with them. I was very impressed with this mower the first time that I used it.

I do not have long arms and I'm only 5' 4" tall so this mower is my favorite ever because I can actually walk this mower without stressing out my shoulders. This is a BIG thing. The low wheel makes is an easy walk. I liked the cut too. Not too wide not too skinny and cuts evenly. Very little adjustment to get it up and where I want it. Great for single ladies walking the yard. I'm not sure on the affiliated ? - affiliated as in I've used the product and am happy, then yes.

The unique carburetor on this mower mas a small plastic fuel metering device that clogs up over a relatively small amount of use and prevents the mower from running. About once a year I have to disassemble the carb and clean out the obstructions using compressed air. It's not very difficult or time consuming, but I recommend looking elsewhere.

As companies expand, CFOs need nimble systems for forecasting, scenario planning.
WASHINGTON, June 17, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- While accurate forecasts are crucial for companies introducing new products, contemplating acquisitions or preparing for changes in the economic environment, few companies employ technology specific to corporate financial planning and analysis (FP&A), according to a survey report released today by gtnews, the global financial information resource.
Findings from the gtnews FP&A Technology Survey, sponsored by Wdesk, show that CFOs and corporate controllers typically rely on spreadsheets for planning, but they aren't fully satisfied with results. In fact, the survey reveals that the main challenge companies face in monthly reporting cycles is time spent identifying and correcting spreadsheet errors.
Among companies that do use more sophisticated technology, most rely on a few very large systems. Due to the expense and complexity of customizing and maintaining these systems, however, FP&A models are often being used as 'black boxes' primarily for consolidating data rather than for planning purposes. Finance teams are forced to build ad hoc spreadsheets to meet specific needs.
"We're seeing a tendency among companies to put off investment in FP&A support even when they know it's not enough to merely collect data. Companies must interpret data, understand what future variations may mean, and then be able to act," said Graham Buck, editor of gtnews.
Half of those surveyed reported budgetary constraints as the main barrier to adopting FP&A systems. Another 40 percent reported the lack of IT support as an obstacle.
"A small, but rapidly growing number of forward-looking companies are using new cloud-based technologies to free their FP&A teams from the continued housing and consolidating of ad-hoc data in Excel spreadsheets, as reported in the gtnews survey," said Joseph Howell, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Wdesk. "These cloud-based solutions provide greater flexibility, an intuitive user interface, and automation of manual tasks so teams can spend more time analyzing data. They also provide up-to-date data in real time, eliminating the need for costly IT support."
About the Survey
In March 2014, gtnews issued a 20-question survey to subscribers in the corporate financial planning and analysis field, resulting in 224 responses. Respondents were located in the Asia-Pacific regions (34 percent), North America (31 percent), Europe (24 percent) and the African sub-continent (11 percent) – from a wide range of industries.

The Chicago-based singer-songwriter headlines after a brief stint opening for Kurt Vile
Angel OlsenGlasslands Gallery (289 Kent Avenue, 11211) Map it $12
Angel Olsen has a fresh edge to her sound, a warm and wonderful range, and an otherworldly skill and charm. Her special presence became apparent through her debut, Strange Cacti and radiates even more on her sophomore album, Half Way Home. Released last month on Bathetic Records, Half Way Home is a continuation of Angel's elegance, a collection of both new and old music, honed and matured, thoughts revisited. It presents this beautiful woman and her extraordinary voice taken to a new level, in no doubt a growth and reach brought on by many road trips with Bonnie 'Prince' Billy and crew. It's an emotional stew with Angel's robust voice up front, bold and engaging, aching to be heard. Joined by Emmett Kelly (The Cairo Gang) behind the board and playing throughout the songs, Half Way Home showcases the wondrous sounds of a songwriter with such a voice that is rarely found.

DescriptionBattery Cartoon Widget adds a funny character to your home screen. The character's life represents you current battery level. Beside battery the widget also optionally shows clock or current weather in your locality.
This app is a widget. To use it - long press the home screen, choose 'widget', look for 'Battery Cartoon' and choose one of the available sizes: 2x1, 2x2, 3x2, 4x2.
Currently there are 12 different battery characters (toons) to choose from including battery eating blobs, the pure energy cosmic being, weight lifting android, the true battery gentleman, apple being eaten as your battery declines and many more.
We are planning to add more toons in the future releases. Half of the toons will always be free and the second half needs a paid upgrade for a minimal price. We do very much appreciate if you decide to upgrade the widget which helps us to invest more time into further development.
In case decide to upgrade, please keep the original app installed.
Thank you very much for trying out our widget.
