classy album that grows on you,
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: Early Hours (Audio CD)
This is a very good album. It is beautifully sung, played and produced. In terms of current enthusiasms for solo women singers McEvoy leaves most of them standing. This is very Irish but also universal in its appeal and it contains some excellent songs, personal favourites being, DJ, Ave Maria (a beautiful challenging song for the Catholic Church), Make Mine a Small One (the best on the album and quite sublime, really beautiful melody and fantastic piano from Brian Connor), Days Roll by ( a great rocker) and Where Did My Life Go-an excellent reading of Bert Jansch's song for Sandy Denny. There is also an excellent jazzy version of Memphis Tennessee. It really deserves 4.5 stars and with more listening may well qualify for 5.Definitely worth buying, especially if you've not got any of her other albums.

Jennifer's Bridal could not have made my dress buying experience more special. With a calm and intimate setting, and not the hussle of a crowded New York store, Jennifer's is the perfect bridal boutique. They carry designer dresses for fantastic prices! I loved my time there and the dress I finally picked was the 2nd one I tried on!
Tracy, Thank you so much for your kind review. We love what we do and are so glad you enjoyed your bridal experience here at Jennifer's. We wish you all the happiness in the world!

Jennifer's is the place to go if you want a pleasant and stress-free shopping experience. I was dreading gown shopping and went to Jennifer's on a whim because of a sale... it was the best choice I could have made in finding a dress vendor. The service at this adorable shop is superb, and you couldn't ask for a more couture selection of gowns in Delaware. Having worn many gowns in pageants and events, I knew that it would be difficult to find a dress that could compare or that would satisfy my particular preferences. Jennifer worked with great patience and helpful suggestions to let me know that whatever I needed, they could provide. Five stars is definitely not enough for Jennifer's Bridal.
Thank you so so much for you amazing review! We are so happy that you had such a great experience here as we really enjoyed getting to work with you and sharing in your special day! Congratulations!!

I don't know where to start with this review. I cannot say enough good things about Jennifer's Bridal, my experience there, or Jennifer and Amy. I am so sad the wedding is over, because now I don't have an excuse to visit the shop! Time to get my friends married! Jennifer's was my 3rd appointment in one day. I was tired and getting disappointed that I hadn't said yes to the dress yet. The other gowns I had tried on at other boutiques were pretty, but I didn't have that feeling yet. The first thing I noticed when I walked in, was that the sample gowns were not in bags. Every white dress looks the same when compacted into a clear, plastic bag. Jennifer and Amy let my bridesmaids, family and I take over. "Try on as many gowns as you like." The last place limited me to 3. It truly was an experience comparable, and in my opinion better, than Kleinfelds. Every gown I tried on, Jennifer explained to me the designer, fit, fabric, alterations I would need, etc. She asked me where our venue was, and helped me make appropriate decisions upon that as well. She wasn't there to just sell me a dress. She was there to make sure I felt 110% perfect on my wedding day. The level of couture in the shop is breath taking and every girls fantasy. Every time I went back to the shop for a fitting, the experience got better and better. Jennifer and Amy both become friends with the bride. A girlfriend to look in the mirror with you and tell you you're beautiful or make suggestions on what to take in a little more. The seamstress, Susan, was amazing as well. My wedding gown was from Modern Trousseau and made for me and my measurements, but Susan tweaked it and made it perfect. I was so happy with my gown, and couldn't get enough of the shop, that I went back for another, short, white dress to wear at the rehearsal dinner. Susan made a couple quick, easy alterations to that dress as well and I was ready for my wedding weekend. I will recommend and beg all of my friends to use this shop for their wedding gown destination. The amount of good memories that Jennifer and Amy have made for me are priceless!
Thank you Rachel so much for your kind words. It made us tear up. We love what we do and working with you on your special day was totally our honor. It is a blessing to call you a friend as well. Congratulations and best wishes!

Jennifer's Bridal was a wonderful place to buy my dress and have the alterations completed. The entire staff was helpful and friendly and went out of their way for every aspect of the dress experience. They have a gorgeous selection and a beautiful showroom. I had a blast everytime I visited Jennifer's and would definitely recommend the shop to other brides who want to the highest quality and not totally break the bank! love love love Jennifer's Bridal
Thank you so much! We truly love what we do, and it is because of awesome brides like yourself! Can't wait to see pictures from the big day. Enjoy being a Mrs.! xoxo

Jennifer's was amazing! She was really good at responding to my e-mails and answering all my questions when I wanted an update on my dress. I got to work with Jennifer directly and she helped me build my dream dress. I walked in not knowing exactly what I wanted and Jennifer helped me try on lots of dresses. My mom, 3 sisters and I all got to pull dresses for me to try on. I tried one on and loved the top but wasn't crazy about the bottom. It was a Modern Trousseau, so we were able to 'build' our own dress. I got one with polka-dots and I absolutely LOVED it! I never thought I'd have a dress with polka-dots but it was perfect thanks to Jennifer's! I got so many compliments on my dress and I was so excited to be able to finally wear it!

It's so much fun when our brides find out their dream gown is something they would have never imagined! It should be a dress unlike any other you will ever wear, and yours was perfect! One of kind just for you:) Congratulations and best wishes on ...

Jennifer's Bridal is outstanding, the dresses are all gorgeous and the customer service can't be beat. I loved my dress and experience shopping here!
Wedding: 3/21/2014
I visited dozens of bridal boutiques in DE, PA, NJ and NY looking for the perfect wedding dress. The wedding dresses at Jennifer's are beautiful and unlike those at any other bridal boutique in the area. And Jennifer and her staff offered the best customer service by far. They were extremely welcoming and helpful. For instance, Jennifer ordered dresses I found online (that she did not carry in the store) for me to try on. I ultimately decided to purchase another dress, and Jennifer was patient and understanding throughout the whole process. And when I placed a last minute order for a sash, Jennifer made sure I had it in time for my wedding (it even arrived early). Jennifer seems to really care about her customers and helping to make their wedding day perfect.
I also need to mention the seamstress Jennifer's recommends, Karen. Karen is fantastic! Her work is impeccable – she even fixed my second reception dress that another seamstress botched. She was a pleasure to work with and scheduled multiple fittings to make sure my dress fit perfectly. I highly recommend her.
I loved your gown and loved working with you and the belt was well...amazing! The perfect touch! I am so happy for you. Congratulations! Please send us a photo!
Wedding: 5/30/2014
It's such a shame that Jennifer's also does not offer bridesmaid dresses, because I would have probably gotten them there as well. They were very patient with me during the whole process of trying to decide which dress to buy. If you are looking for a bargain dress, this may not be the place for you, although you can sometimes find a decent deal off the rack. I wound up falling in love with a dress that I would never have picked out for myself. They even took time to let me come by and "visit" the sample on the rack while I was still making my decision.
Wedding: 6/22/2013
I lucked out in finding a sample sale dress here! The boutique has Gorgeous designer dresses (which normally I could never afford!) but their sample sales are Awesome and I found the perfect one! The staff was incredibly helpful as well as the seamstress that they work with.
Thank you for you kind words. We are so happy Sydney found the perfect girl to take her home. We are truly happy for you and it was our pleasure to be able to share in your special day!
Wedding: 6/1/2013
Jennifer's Bridal was the only place in Delaware where I even considered looking twice for my bridal gown. I tried several other places before finding Jennifer's, and they were just rows and rows of crispy fake-feeling dresses hung in plastic bags. Jennifer's is anything but that! They carry all the high-end, eco friendly, and made in the USA designers. I bought my gown during their June sample sale, which really helped to keep us in the right price point. Also, the atmosphere there is fantastic. They only have 2 dressing rooms, so it is never crowded and the store is just gorgeous. If you are looking for that perfect dress - make an appointment at Jennifer's!
Wedding: 5/25/2013
I love Jennifer's I had a wonderful experience. Everyone there is extremely helpful and friendly. In addition to gorgeous dresses they also have a great selection of accessories. I brought jewelry to my first fitting and when I tried it on with my dress I realized it didn't look right. I was able to find earrings and a braclet that look perfect with my dress. Everyone at my wedding raved about my dress.
Jennifer we have NO DOUBT everyone raved about your gown. You looked stunning. It was the perfect gown for you. Your photos were beautiful. Thank you for sharing them and for your kind review. Much much happiness to you!
Wedding: 5/25/2013
Jennifer's offers amazing customer service, as well as dress options. Seamstress who is very talented is on site, and they steam and maintain your dress until the day before your wedding so you don't have to worry about wrinkling it with no extra charge, they also take your dress, getting cleaned and preserve it for you. Like I said, class act boutique with amazing customer service.
Maria, it is easy to be a class act when you have such classy brides. You were so fun and such a pleasure to work with. We loved you photos and are going to miss you. Keep in touch and best wishes for your happily ever after. Thank you for your kinds...
Wedding: 5/11/2013
Jennifer is great! She is a pleasure to work with and never pushy. Her dresses are gorgeous and she always has new ones coming in. I sent my good friend here and she also found her dress!
Her seamstress does good work, though she gave us a bit of a hard time for having to re-do an alteration. Otherwise they were excellent.
Thank you so much for your kind review. I really enjoyed working with you. I apologize for any hard time you received in alterations. We hope everything turned out perfect! Thank you for letting us share in your special day.
Wedding: 4/20/2013
I received nothing but fantastic service from the time I walked into the store until I walked out with my dress! There were so many options and I didn't feel pressured,, I would recommend Jennifer's to anyone!!
Wedding: 5/4/2013
My wedding is in a few days but Jennifer's Bridal is amazing! I am so happy i had used them to find my wedding gown! They are so great to work with and so helpful!! I highly recommend them to every bride looking for there special dress! Thanks Jennifer's!
Wedding: 12/8/2012
I could not have been happier with Jennifer's! The shop is beautiful, clean and uncluttered. Jen and Amy do a wonderful job of making each bride feel unique and special. It was such a pleasant experience! They helped me to special order my gown so that it was exactly what I wanted!
Thank you for your kind review. We loved seeing your pictures. We hope you are happy and well. Best wishes for a beautiful future with your new hubby!
Wedding: 10/7/2012
Jennifer's was absolutely fabulous when I went to pick out my dress. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. They encouraged my family to pick out dresses for me. When I found "the dress" it was over my budget; they let me know that there would be a trunk show in a month and the dress would be available for a discount.
I also did my fittings with their seamstress, who was also fabulous. I am living in Maryland and she was very flexible with me.
Wedding: 12/8/2012
Five stars is not a high enough review for Jennifer's Bridal. The staff is amazing and the store is beautiful, spacious, and clean. Amy, the sales associate helped me to custom order my gown, making several changes to the gown to make it exactly what I imagined. I never felt rushed during any of my appointments. It was completely unlike the other bridal shops I visited where you feel like "just another bride". Jennifer and Amy create the perfect experience of finding the dress. I was also very pleased with the seamstress who did multiple fittings to make sure my dress fit perfectly and even took the time to show my dad exactly how to make a custom veil for me.
Jennifer's Bridal will not disappoint!
Thank you Thank you Thank you
We love what we do and it is because of brides like you. You were fun and easy going. Thank you again for your support and great review. We truly appreciate it!!!
Wedding: 11/17/2012
Jennifer's Bridal gave me that "say yes to the dress" experience. I could not of asked to feel more special. And the seamtress did an awesome job as well. I would highly recommend them.
Thank you so much for you kind review. We really truly appreciate it!
Wedding: 11/9/2012
The dresses here are beautiful. Amy was very helpful and the customer service was always great.

Lenses / Re: lifespan of IS motor?« on: August 25, 2014, 04:42:29 PM »
Why do people expect their camera and lens to do better than that???
I guess for amateurs it's wishful thinking because the price for a good dslr kit is very high in comparison what you could do with the money for other recreations like travel... so it has to last, doesn't it?
Thus one interesting question is avoided: Wouldn't it be more clever to by Rebel cameras with cheaper 3rd party lenses, and when they break simply upgrade to the better current model? Certainly not an option for professional use, but less worry about gear damage, theft or wear and for most purposes about the same result :-.o
That is an intersting thought. However, the Higher level DSLR do have more feature than the Rebel. If the Rebel has enough feature to satisfy you, by all means, go for it. I have a 20D for 5 years and a 40D for 4 years. Both cameras have the shutter releas button failed. Fortunately, I can fix them with alcohol(Thanks for the instructions from You Tube). If I cannot fix them, they will be goners. As for the lens, my 17-40 L holds up very well even after 9 years. For me, I have got more than what I have paid for. But I start to question the focusing accuracy of he 28-135 Canon lens after 6 years. I do not have any experience with the third party lenses.
Since I want to travel light, I have just switched to the EOS-M system.

London Irish have added to their backrow options for next season with the signing of Welsh U20 Edward Siggery.
Siggery, who is currently touring with the Wales U20s in Italy at the Junior World Championship, has already taken caps for Wales at U16 and U18 level. He has featured in both matches of the Junior World Championship, starting at blindside. He joins London Irish from the Scarlets having turned out for three regional clubs, Llanelli, Carmarthen Quins, Llandovery and also Cardiff Blues region Pontypridd.
Siggery is understandably delighted with the move and will look forward to lining up for the Exiles next season. "Moving to London Irish is a positive step for me. Quite a few of the young lads at the club made a big impact last season and I hope to do the same when I join next season," Siggery said.
Siggery will be working under London Irish academy manager Neal Hatley and Hatley is excited by his latest recruit's potential. "Ed will be a good addition to our squad for next season," Hatley said. "The competitive rugby he has played in the Welsh Premiership will prepare him for the step up to Aviva Premiership Rugby."

Tim Ingram, Noble Maseru, Cammie Mitrione, Dennis Propes, Jonathan Singer and Pamela Walker-Bauer all have one major thing in common.
They're public health commissioners in Hamilton County.
That, elected officials and others believe, makes little sense.
"Do we really need a half-dozen departments with a half-dozen different bosses doing a lot of the same things?" Hamilton County Commissioner Chris Monzel asked rhetorically. "There's plenty of room here for rethinking this."
As financially strapped local governments search for ways to stretch their budgets, they increasingly are exploring the possibilities of sharing or consolidating similar services with neighboring townships, villages, cities and counties - a controversial topic.
Cincinnati City Hall, for example, launched a brief, ultimately unconsummated flirtation late last year with the idea of merging the city's police patrols with the Hamilton County sheriff's office. But that effort drew a firestorm of protests, despite claims that the plan could save millions of dollars annually while putting more officers on the streets.
With similar discussions now under way in regard to health care, The Enquirer examined that issue as a window onto the broader question of government consolidation.
In Hamilton County, health care makes for a good case study, with six separate health departments operating in the same realm, if not always in precisely the same way.
The essential question being asked is a relatively simple one: Is there a better, less expensive way to provide health care, respond to emergencies such as the H1N1 scare and offer myriad other services such as restaurant and pool inspections? The answers, however, are complex and nuanced.
Small cities are especially suspicious of what consolidation could mean for them.
The basics - the inoculations, inspections and other routine services - would stay essentially the same, they admit.
But what about some of their extras? St. Bernard's health department, for instance, offers a $5 shuttle ride for any resident to a doctor's office within the Interstate 275 loop.
And would a countywide operation have learned why a creek was turning orange - it turns out painters were cleaning their brushes in a storm sewer - as quickly as staffers in an office only blocks away? Folks in Springdale don't think so.
Hamilton County health depts. spend $52 million per year
Within Hamilton County alone, the county, Cincinnati and four smaller cities - Norwood, St. Bernard, Sharonville and Springdale - operate their own health departments. Due to a population drop that makes it a village, however, St. Bernard will soon join the 43 other townships, villages and cities covered by the county department, paying fees based on property values.
"There's no doubt you can achieve efficiencies by shrinking the bureaucracy, merging or sharing services," said Cincinnati City Councilman Chris Bortz. "You're talking millions."
That may be especially true in Ohio, which is top heavy with government. While the national average of government entities per county is 28, Ohio has 41, according to an analysis of census data by Gene Krebs of the Greater Ohio Policy Center. Hamilton County is even more bloated, with 48 municipalities within its borders.
"If Ohio were a house, we've built the house with each bedroom having its own attached fully-stocked kitchen," said Krebs, whose group promotes policies intended to enhance the state's economy and quality of life. "And we still insist on buying milk in half pints down at the old corner convenience store."
Local agencies oversee more than $100 million in health spending annually. The six health departments in Hamilton County spend about $52 million a year, nearly all of it by Cincinnati ($40.1 million) and the county ($9.2 million). The annual health budgets in the four smaller cities range from about $100,000 to $490,000.
On top of that, the county's Health and Hospitalization levy - often referred to as the indigent care levy - will generate nearly $55 million this year, with a majority of those dollars going to University Hospital and Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, the county's "safety net" hospitals for the poor.
How much of the $52 million directly spent by the local health departments potentially could be saved? The departments' budgets offer a glimpse at the possibilities, based on the assumption that about 10 percent of their personnel expense is spent on administration, the likeliest place for initial savings:
About $5 million of Hamilton County's $9.2 million 2011 budget goes to salaries and other personnel expenses. A modest 10 percent reduction in payroll and related expenses would create a $500,000 savings.
A 2010 city manager's report predicted that a possible Cincinnati-Hamilton County health merger would produce "little cost savings" due to a "lack of jurisdictional redundancy." Former City Councilman Jeff Berding, Bortz and others disagree, arguing that combining with the county and other reorganizations could save millions of dollars.
Last year, more than three-quarters of the city department's $42 million budget - $33.6 million - went to personnel expenses, including $3.7 million spent on administration. The city could largely shed that administrative tab, Berding contends, under a merger with the county. He says other steps - among them, his plan for hospitals to provide services now offered at the health centers - could produce additional annual savings two to three times higher than the current administrative cost.
Even if smaller cities were willing to accept loss of local administrators and some services as the price of consolidation - which for now they are not - the savings would be relatively minor, generally under $100,000.
Some similarities, some differences between agencies
Within their jurisdictions, the six health agencies, each governed by its own board, perform similar duties such as pool, food safety and waste facility inspections, immunizations, lead screening, communicable disease monitoring, smoking ban enforcement, mosquito control and general health education.
But there also are critical distinctions.
Cincinnati, where the board of health dates back to 1826, operates eight health centers - five primary health care centers, a sexually transmitted disease facility and two dental clinics. In 2010, those centers provided medical, dental, pharmacy and other services to more than 35,000 patients, primarily under- and uninsured individuals.
The county agency focuses on protecting public health through inspections, coordinating health initiatives, analysis of disease data and other efforts. And the other smaller cities' health departments not only provide an array of quintessentially small-town functions - Norwood's include overseeing an ordinance permitting egg-laying hens to be kept in residential areas - but also often fill a social role nearly as important as their medical duty.
Marsha Lingo, 55, left largely bedridden by a stroke, describes her regular home check-ups from Norwood nurse Chandra Corbin as "a visit from a friend I look forward to" each week.
"Without her, I'd probably be in a cemetery," said Lingo, for whom Corbin's visits briefly expand a world largely limited to the bed pushed against a wall in her small living room where she spends nearly every hour, awake and asleep. "I describe it as like having an angel on my shoulder."
Such testimonials, said Springdale Commissioner Mitrione, show that public health is "not all about the dollars."
"We're not only providing a health service per se," said Mitrione, who presides over a department with a $341,879 budget - 20 percent higher than last year - three full-time staffers and two part-time employees. "At times, it's almost like a support system where somebody's checking in on a neighbor to make sure they're OK."
Lots of talking about it, not much doing something about it
Within Hamilton County, inter-governmental talks about possibly consolidating health and other services have occurred periodically in recent years.
"It's more or less an every-four-years occurrence, like the locusts that always come out after a certain period," joked Maseru, Cincinnati's health commissioner.
Gov. John Kasich's administration is pursuing a carrot-and-stick approach on that volatile topic, slashing the state's funding of local governments while offering financial incentives to encourage them to share services.
Under the House version of the state's budget, now being debated by the Senate, governments that collaborate could receive grants of up to $250,000 from a $100 million fund, 20 percent of which would be set aside for townships.
The federal health reforms scheduled to take effect in 2014 are another driving force giving consolidation talks new urgency.
Hamilton County Commission President Greg Hartmann, who has talked with Cincinnati Mayor Mark Mallory and Councilwoman Roxanne Qualls on the matter, said he expects a city-county task force to begin examining the possibilities for consolidation later this spring.
One enticing issue on the task force's agenda would be how the federal reforms - in particular, insuring the now uninsured - could alter future use of the county's indigent health care levy, which this year will bring in $54.6 million.
Cincinnati, which long has chafed over not getting any of those dollars even though its residents pay a significant share of the property tax-based levy, would like to use a chunk of that revenue to expand its health centers into the county's suburban reaches. City Hall got a significant boost in that campaign on Friday, when a consultant recommended that the county consider allocating indigent care levy funds to the city health centers.
Turf, autonomy, money key obstacles to consolidation
Although county and city officials emphasize their openness, turf issues - almost always a hurdle in such talks - loom as a major obstacle. While those points are usually couched in terms of concern over how the loss of autonomy could diminish services, job and title protection also are high on the list of worries, experts say.
"There's a lot of parochialism and fear of losing what you have now," said Ohio State University-Lima political science professor William Angel. "With consolidation, there will be downsizing. That goes with it.
"I don't question that the workers care deeply about whether services might be affected. But they're also worried that if they're in a top position today, they might be in a lower one tomorrow - or might not even have a job tomorrow. It's human nature."
Current health commissioners, though, downplay that aspect.
"As far as I'm concerned, turf isn't a big issue," said Sharonville health commissioner Propes. "If there's a more efficient way to run things, you'd want to look at that. What matters is the service."
Smaller cities in particular worry that they might get short shrift through any merger with bigger partners, erasing the personal touches with which their health services are delivered. Even if current levels of service could be assured, officials and residents there say, switching from a hometown agency to a countywide or regional operation is tantamount to driving to a chain-store pharmacy instead of walking to the neighborhood drug store.
"Yeah, you can go to Hamilton County to handle something like food inspections," said Springdale's Mitrione. "But you'll be one of 2,500 instead of one of 150."
Similarly, St. Bernard Mayor Bill Burkhardt initially feared that one of the first things to go if his health department merged with the county's would be the $5 door-to-door shuttle service to doctors' offices.
"These may seem like little things, but our citizens have grown to expect these services," Burkhardt said. "You could lose a lot of that with consolidation."
A population decline that dropped St. Bernard below the 5,000 threshold for cityhood in the 2010 census, however, forced St. Bernard's hand on that issue. Under Ohio law, villages are part of their county's health district.
The county has told St. Bernard it can provide the basic services previously funded by the city's roughly $100,000 health budget for only about $4,800, county health commissioner Ingram said. The city's overall savings, though, will depend on whether it retains several existing staff positions. One thing that will remain, city officials vow, is the $5 shuttle.
Norwood went though a similar review in 2008, when the city considered closing its then-108-year-old health department and merging with the county. But residents and elected leaders fought to keep it after a study showed that 16 of 23 existing services would be lost or significantly diminished, and now consider the department's $490,000 budget money well spent, said health commissioner Walker-Bauer.
Hamilton County Commissioner Hartmann, however, said such sentiments may have to yield to harsh economic facts.
"It's not or shouldn't be about whose name is on the door or building," Hartmann said. "We have to work past that to preserve the best possible services. And we will."

Archer helps Trip finish setting up his EVA suit
Archer: It'd be best not to take the scenic route.
Trip nods and exits the catwalk. He makes his way to Engineering where he sees equipment left out on the deck. Trip hides as he hears people approaching. Aliens, the same species as their guests walk through the upper level of engineering. The intruders come down to the lower level, Trip uses a nearby console to cause a noise distraction so he can leave engineering unnoticed. Trip dodges patrols in the corridors and manages to not be seen. He goes to a Port side crew quarters and looks out the window, he sees an alien ship docked with Enterprise. Trip uses a nearby monitor to access security feeds from the bridge.
Meanwhile, in the Ready Room, the Alien leader is looking through information on the ship and crew.

... more humbling than seeing the city lights in the darkness from a plane at 30,000 ft. It really is an amazing sight. I also shouted "land ho!" at the guy sitting next to me on the plane when I first spotted land from the plane."
On the plane, I ate an absolutely delicious pasta dish!! I hope all meals in Europe are that good.....one moment......yep, it was just as good the second time! I tried sleeping, ...
... so we had good (for plane) food and watched movies on the way back with stopovers in Dubai and Bangkok, 24 hours of flying woohoo!
Soo thats officially the end of my blog, I had the most amazing time away, met some awesome people, ate the best food i've ever eaten, and visited some of the most beautiful places in the world. I had an absolute blast and I can't wait to start planning my next holiday.

After lunch we decided to leave as it was getting really busy there. On the way out I saw this clothes store called 'All Saints' and the window was two storeys high and was split onto little square bits. In everyone of the squares were genuine old singer machines.

Modelling economies in transition: an introduction
AbstractThis paper considers the implications of structural breaks, such as have occurred in many transition economies, for econometric modelling based on the multivariate cointegration paradigm. It outlines recent developments on the identification of linear cointegrated systems, discusses some practical problems, and presents an extension to non-linear systems. This is followed by a discussion of the impact of structural breaks on the identification and estimation of such systems. Finally, it relates these issues to the other papers in this volume.

EUREKA SPRINGS, Ark. – An Arkansas clerk has issued the southern state's first gay marriage license, breaking a ban that voters put in place with a constitutional amendment 10 years ago.
Carroll County Clerk Jane Osborn issued a license Saturday morning to Kristin Seaton and Jennifer Rambo of Fort Smith, Arkansas.
READ MORE: Nintendo refuses to add same-sex relationships to 'Tomodachi Life'
Judge Chris Piazza in Little Rock on Friday struck down the 2004 ban, saying there was no rational reason for it.
Piazza didn't issue a stay, so local clerks can decide whether to grant licenses. Most Arkansas courthouses are closed Saturdays, but the one at Eureka Springs usually opens to issue marriage licenses.
Arkansas' attorney general asked Piazza to temporarily delay allowing marriages pending an appeal to the state Supreme Court.

A report assessing the potential for growth in Tasmania's poppy industry has identified more land suitable for planting.
The study, jointly funded by the State Government and the industry, says there are another 15,000 hectares suitable for growing poppies, worth about $40 million a year.
Glynn Williams from Poppy Growers Tasmania says the finding should alter the perception that Tasmania is not the best place to grow the crop.
"What it means is we now have definitive area which shows how much poppies can still be grown in Tasmania and on a sustainable basis," he said.
"Not only is there room to grow the poppies that we are growing now, but there's room to grow a lot more and that's great news for Tasmanian farmers."

I love the ultimate it's probably the most useful thing if you could add it into League.
For example, much like Amumu's Bandage Toss and ultimate combo it is sometimes predictable and needs two spells to accomplish one task, however this ultimate does what it needs in one ability and with the Synergy of the other abilities such as Mach Punch, it can have more sustain in damage.
Basically I'd play her as a bruiser and charge up Mach Punch and initiate into the enemy team with my team, and with Calamity Drive and Mach Punch I'd punch one of the carries with the extra damage from Trinity Force.
The passive also gives you the freedom to build differently, it's not too gimmicky or at all gimmicky. It's pretty simple, and easy to understand, however Beta Unit, could be overpowered giving %15 bonus attack damage.
Overall solid champion, looks like major fun, and a great addition.

Where Have all the Hockey Viewers Gone? Nowhere, New Data Reveals
Without the good old hockey game on the air, Canadians are finding plenty of other Saturday night viewing options, new data reveals. Compared to last year, overall viewing levels are down only 5% in primetime on Saturday nights, BBM Canada data confirms. Canadian English language specialty channels have become a prime benefactor, attracting 34% of hockey viewers for an overall 20% lift in audience on Saturday nights. Meanwhile, CTV has more than doubled its 8-10 p.m. timeslot performance in key demos with its┬ĀBIG BANG NIGHT ON CTV┬ĀSaturday night stunt, adding more than half a million total viewers.
A closer look at the data reveals that:
ŌĆó Of primetime hockey viewers, 34% have flocked to Canadian English language specialty channels, including The Comedy Network (+56,000 viewers) and TSN (+50,000 viewers).
ŌĆó While CBC has retained 11% of hockey viewers, CTV has gained 19%, U.S. stations have gained 11%, and Global has gained 5%.
ŌĆó From 8-10 p.m., CTV has seen an increase of 61% with┬ĀBIG BANG NIGHT ON CTV, which has become a Top 30 program this fall. The stunt has attracted an additional 315,000 A25-54 viewers and 552,000 total viewers to the 8-10 p.m. timeslot, nearly 60% which are male.
ŌĆó CTV increases are driven by a surge of male viewers, with the Male 18-49 and Male 25-54 demos up 151% and 128% respectively.
ŌĆó Earlier at 7 p.m., CTVŌĆÖs W5 has also seen an increase among the key adult demos A18-34 (+13%), A25-54 (+11%), and A18-49 (+10%).
BBM Canada, Oct 13, 20, & 27. 7p-11p vs. equivalent dates last year unless otherwise noted.
Fall 2012: Sept. 24-Oct.21, 2012

St. Louis Rams QB Sam Bradford had another poor performance in Week 11. Against the New York Jets, Bradford completed 23 of 44 passes for 170 yards, two TDs and an interception. He also lost a fumble and had a laughable 3.9 yards per attempt.
The Rams were blown out 27-13 by the Jets to fall to 3-6-1.
Fantasy Impact: The third-year QB continues to frustrate with his lack of consistent progress. After putting up strong numbers in the tie game with the Niners, Bradford put up another fantasy dud.
Fantasy owners just can't count on Bradford from week to week. With his favorite target Danny Amendola injured again, Bradford should be sitting on fantasy benches against the Cardinals in Week 12.

"I just wanted to take the time to say Thank You. I just saw on Facebook this morning that both Brennan and Evyn Ash made the travel team in Tampa. That, combined with the fact that Gehrig made the Travel Team here in Washington State, and the fact that Keldon and Kade Erickson are playing Travel Hockey in Nashville is truly evidence that Watertown Hockey is a machine for producing a great Hockey Culture, and that Watertown Coaches are teaching the right stuff.
These kids would not be where they are without you guys.
In case nobody says it... I just wanted to thank you guys. You Coaches and Watertown Hockey in general deserve a ton of credit."

Since its organization in 1958, the Watertown Skating and Hockey Association, Inc., has remained true to its original purpose of developing "the health and cultural growth of youth in the community" through participation in athletics. Over the past 50 years the Association's volunteers have coached, trained and mentored thousands of children in Jefferson, Lewis and St. Lawrence counties. The Association has skaters on the ice ranging in age from 3 to 18 years old. Our teams compete throughout New York and Canada and we play host to several hockey tournaments in Watertown each season. The Association is the local affiliated organization of USA Hockey, Inc., the national governing body for the sport of hockey in the United States. We take pride in the strict standards of coach education, qualifications and screening required by USA Hockey. The quality and dedication of our coaches and volunteer management and staff is directly reflected the years of loyalty of our many skaters and parents. Besides training athletic skill and teaching a sport, our coaches strive to develop character, sportsmanship, and overall physical fitness. Our mission is to provide each child with the opportunity to grow socially, learn mental and physical discipline and experience the power of teamwork and collective competitiveness. The Association looks forward to another 50 years of developing civic minded, responsible citizens through youth sport.
