Robert L. Bays
Robert L. Bays, 85, of Horseshoe Road, Victor, died March 3, 2014, at Mary's Garden Center in Oak Hill.
Born March 19, 1928, at Nallen, he was the son of the late Leland Bays and Bernice Bays. He also was preceded in death by his wife of 63 years, Ethel Mae Bays, who passed away in September 2012; children, Robert Dale Bays and Herschel Franklin Bays; two great-grandchildren; and sisters, Evelyn and Helen.
Bob served his country as a combat soldier during the Korean War and spent many years working in the timber industry.
Above everything Bob greatly enjoyed spending time with his family, and listening to and singing Christian hymns.
Prior to his illness, Bob was an avid hunter and outdoorsman who enjoyed sitting around the campfire with his sons and sons-in-law. Bob's laugh and his smile, as well as his kindness, will be missed beyond words, however it's our belief in God's Word that whosoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved and to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord; that gives us the confidence that we will be together again for eternity.
Surviving: his brother, Orville Ray Bays of Colorado; daughters, Karol Haynes and husband Charlie of Oak Hill, Kathy Bragg and husband Ken of Fayetteville, Bobbie Joe Hornsby and husband Gary of Fayetteville, Marcelle Cole and husband Darrell of Saturday Road, Victor, Helen Whited and husband David of Beckley; sons, David Bays and wife Brenda of Victor, and LeLand Bays and wife Jo Ann of Burlington, N.C.; 15 grandchildren and 21 great-grandchildren; and a very special childhood friend, James Cole of Charleston.
Funeral services will be 1 p.m. on Friday, March 7, at Wallace and Wallace Funeral Home Chapel in Ansted with Pastor Morris Nutter officiating. Burial will follow in Chestnut Grove Cemetery at Nallen.

Breast Milk Drop-Off Depot
Updated: Monday, June 23 2014, 03:02 PM CDT
CHAMPIGN-URBANA -- Friday, the Champaign Urbana Public Health Department became the first downstate location in Illinois to create a breast milk donor drop-off site.
Lauren Duncan, Donor Coordinator of Indiana's Mothers Milk Bank says, "This is huge, not just for the Indiana Mother's Milk Bank, but for the Champaign-Urbana Area."
Friday's grand opening was a partnership between the Champaign-Urbana Public Health District and the Indiana Mothers' Milk Bank. Their goal, a more convenient way for mother's to donate milk and raise awareness of the importance of breast feeding.
Donor Mom, Sarah Andresen says, "Breast milk is one of those things that you only have the opportunity to do once. It's not always there. Moms can't always do it and I'm lucky enough and fortunate enough to have the supply to help other moms".
Andresen brought in 90 ounces of breast milk Friday. She's donated more than 2000 ounces over the last several months.
"It's about all these little tiny fragile babies, and they don't have enough food that can help them, that can help them grow, that can help keep them safe," says Heather Ludwig, the event coordinator.
Organizers say many are unaware that breast milk can be donated. The Indiana Mothers Milk Bank provides an on-site freezer to store milk-----CUPHD will now ship to the milk bank on a regular basis.
"Prior to the milk depot opening, donors would have to request a box from the milk bank, purchase dry ice, then mail in their supply, now after a screening process moms can simply schedule an appointment then bring their milk down to the public health department."
Kristin McWilliams donated 400 ounces of breast milk Friday. She's excited that there's now a drop-off site close to home. She hopes it will encourage more moms to donate.
"I've always had an overabundance supply of breast milk and I know there are babies out there who could really benefit from my oversupply," McWilliams says.
The Indiana Mothers Milk Bank receives human milk from carefully screened donors, pasteurizes, freezes and distributes throughout the Midwest. They now have 35 milk drop-off sites across Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois, Wisconsin and St. Louis.

Independent Hereford fashion store on the move
Updated 2:12pm Tuesday 4th March 2014 in News
AN independent Hereford fashion retailer is on the move – but is sticking with the city centre.
FIT – currently based in High Town – was set to shut up shop last July with the intention of focusing on its online store.
But last autumn the Cookmate Kitchen Shop on Widemarsh Street announced it was closing and since then, FIT owner Luke Conod has been working with Herefordshire Council to get the "right deal".
He said that while High Town is not the right thing for the company going forward, it is "delighted" to be getting a new home in the city.
The old FIT store will close on Friday while the new one is expected to open on March 28.

This is from Simplicity, pattern 1803 – which I love! the pattern comes with bodice variations, gathered waist skirt and a optional tie belt. It has gathered cap sleeves.
Great pattern for a confident new-ish beginner/intermediate. The trickiness comes in putting the bodice pieces together.

The global market for sensors used in internal combustion engines (ICE) is on the road of steady growth for the next few years, propelled by increasing utilization in engine management and exhaust aftertreatment, according to a new report from IHS Technology (NYSE: IHS).
The global electronic supply chain is growing, but this expansion is currently at primarily single digit rates. Compared to the same 3-month period a year earlier world semiconductor shipments are up 11.5%, PCBs up 5.2%, electronic equipment up 2.8% and the Global PMI leading indicator up 3.3%. The JPMorgan/Markit Economics Global PMI has been in expansion territory (PMI>50) for the last few years however regional performance varies. Perhaps strangely the USA and Europe are currently expanding faster than many Asian countries with China and Japan in recent contraction modes.

An exhibition at Susan Hobbs Gallery features the work of artist Ian Carr-Harris from March 21-April 27, 2013. Carr-Harris scrutinizes language's meanings and edges, often fastening his deft analyses to the institutional structures that bear and uphold them: the exhibition space, the chalkboard, the book. In the gallery's main space, Prose and Poetry of England is a three-part installation by Carr-Harris that considers the book as a frame for these considerations as much as an aesthetic object in itself. Working with John Masefield's richly textured poem Cargoes, which compares in ascending historical register the sundry cargoes of three ships, Carr-Harris deconstructs the poem to open it up to the revealing and astonishing elements of language, display, and childhood stories.
On the gallery's upper floor, an extrapolation from The Ideal House Project, an ongoing series jointly produced by the artist team of Yvonne Lammerich and Carr-Harris, positions the building's model as both a noun and a verb, a paradigmatic object to be deconstructed and built again. As the artists write, "In the act of building there lies the basis of desire, of intention given form in an evolution of its spatial and aesthetic functions, and the concept of ideal form lies not in some finality, but in the play of possibilities that attends the process of living as becoming."
Ian Carr-Harris was born in Victoria, British Columbia in 1941. He has shown extensively in Canada, and internationally, including such exhibitions as the 8th Biennale of Sydney, Canadian Biennial of Contemporary Art, Documenta 8, and the XLI Biennale di Venezia. He has had solo exhibitions at Chelsea School of Art, London; The Power Plant, Toronto; Centre culturel Canadien, Paris; Centre d'art contemporain, Herblay, France; and Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto. His work has been included in exhibitions at Ydessa Hendeles Art Foundation; Toronto; Musée d'art contemporain, Lyon; and Marburg Kunstverein, Marburg, Germany. Carr-Harris's work is held in many public and private collections across North America and Europe.

Kenyan cricket selectors on Tuesday named two teenagers in the 15-man squad for next month's inaugural Twenty20 world championships in South Africa. The two players - allrounder Alex Obanda and batsman Elijah Otieno - earned their first caps when they featured in the two three-day matches the World Cricket League champions played and lost to India A in the coastal port city of Mombasa last week. Long-serving skipper Steve Tikolo who suffered a calf injury during the series retains his place with Thomas Odoyo as his deputy. Kenya, which is set to play India A and Sri Lanka A in a triangular limited overs tournament starting in Nairobi on Tuesday, will also host a four-nation warm up competition for the Twenty20 World championships later this month. The other teams include Pakistan, Bangladesh and the newly-crowned World Cricket League division two champions Uganda. The Kenyan squad is: Steve Tikolo (capt), Thomas Odoyo (vice capt), Morris Ouma, David Obuya, Tanmay Mishra, Collins Obuya, Alex Obanda, Jimmy Kamande, Hiren Varaiya, Peter Ongondo, Elijah Otieno, Nehemiah Odhiambo, Rajesh Bhudia, Tony Suji, Lameck Onyango.

A wildly successful alternative to traditional day spas—its more than 300 locations blanket 36 states and half a dozen countries—Planet Beach A Contempo Spa is a futuristic relaxation station where state-of-the-art machines administer all the spa and tanning services. These friendly automatons sometimes replace familiar treatments, as in the Luminous facial, a light-based service that delivers blemish-busting results similar to those of a conventional facial. But other equipment maps out new spa territory entirely: the Hydro-Derma Fusion chamber moisturizes the whole body with nutrient-rich steam in order to offset the effects of a dry climate or a rear-end collision with a salt truck. Other machines whiten teeth, spray tan skin, and massage muscles.
Planet Beach operates on a gym-style membership system, meaning that members purchase packages or pay flat monthly rates. As members spend more time at the spa, they get to know the helpful assistants who are always on hand to demonstrate how to use the equipment without activating its ability to cry.
With three levels of UV beds and an organic, FDA-approved spray-tanning solution at their hands, the Smart Tan–certified staff at Coconutz Tanning Spa can create a customized tanning regimen to match nearly any skin type or desired level of darkness. The salon's UV beds contain up to 56 bulbs that bronze skin, and optional high-pressure tanners show embarrassing home videos to quickly add color to faces. The spray tan's natural, organic ingredients diffuse across skin in a hand-sprayed mist, imbuing your body with a summery sheen that lasts five or more days. When the golden mist clears, shelves stocked with a lineup of sunless-tanning and tan-enhancing lotions come into view. These specially formulated products further darken the skin's hue and protect it from drying out with added moisturizers.
Housed inside Azure Aesthetics, Good Vibrationz specializes in Laser Lipo treatments that work to sculpt bodies without invasive needles or tubes. The Lapex 2000 Laser Lipo reduces the appearance of cellulite and shrinks fat cells with the help of diode lasers and Shrinky Dinks plastic. The paddles send specific wavelengths of light beneath the skin's surface, penetrating cells so they release the fatty acids within. With the help of a whole-body vibration platform and the body's own metabolism, these fatty acids are flushed from the body, and clients can get back to their normal routines with no downtime or long, protracted goodbye letters to their unwanted fat.
Inland Empire Dermatology's board-certified dermatologist Dr. Paul Ross and his hand-selected aesthetician Sarah Mjelde help clients feel at ease during personalized medical and aesthetic skincare treatments. No matter the client's age, Dr. Ross aims to diagnose skin cancer early using a dermoscopy technique to examine each mole and pigmented lesion tagging the client's body or growing at the place where their body meets their shadow. Since joining the Inland family more than six years ago, aesthetician Sarah has shown an aptitude for revitalizing complexions using advanced technology, including a trio of lasers—Iridex Diolite 532 and Candela's GentleLase and Smoothbeam—which gently whisk away unwanted pigmentation, hair, and acne. Sarah also dolls up visages with expert makeup applications utilizing Jane Iredale cosmetics. Those unsure about their current skincare routine can tote in their epidermis-enhancing products, and Sarah will give them an honest evaluation and suggest products that can better benefit their skin, which could include the Clarisonic brushes, NeoStrata products, and Viveté Revitalizing Eye Cream lining the office's shelves.
Whether they're smoothing out cellulite or laying on a coat of bronze, the technicians at Azure Aesthetics dedicate their entire attention to one organ: the skin. Their treatments strive to make guests comfortable and confident by addressing a wide range of ailments. Facials combat conditions such as acne, wrinkles, or rosacea, though each one begins with a custom skin analysis and lifestyle review. For a full-body service, customers choose their preferred scent of exfoliating sugar scrub: mango, vanilla cocoa bean, or Brazil nut. And, when it comes to reducing dimples or shaping a more svelte silhouette, the staff has multiple tools at their disposal?they utilize a Lapex 2000 lipo-laser machine, as well as far-infrared slimming technology and Bioslimming wraps.
SunSational Tanning provides bronze seekers with one Mystic Tan spray-tan booth and 14 tanning beds in a 3,500-square-foot tanning salon. Tanners can step into a standup Mystic Tan spray-tan booth, where a mechanical airbrush travels from head to pinky toe, spritzing the body with a custom sunless formulation that results in a deep, long-lasting bronze that can't be bought in a pawn shop. Clients can also opt for Sudatonic infrared body wraps that promote weight loss, red light therapy that stimulates collagen production in the skin, and UV tanning beds. The tanning salon also features a coffee house that serves gourmet coffee and offers free WiFi so customers can research next season's tanning trends. The shop sports a merchandise section that includes apparel and skin care products from Designer Skin, California Tan, and Australian Gold.

B.o.B - Slow ft. Rock City
Artist: B.o.B
Featuring: Rock City
Album: Mick Boogie Presents: Hello My Name is B.o.B Mixtape
Avg Rating: 3.0 ( 26 total votes )
Two of the music world's best-kept secrets have teamed up for a mid-tempo acoustic-heavy club song. While rapper B.o.B. gets the lead credit on Slow, singing/songwriting duo Rock City's contribution is so large that it could easily be credited the other way around. The song finds B.o.B. once again (hey, practice makes perfect) spitting game to a Heavy Breather who'd like Grip Your Body, but Rock City starts Losing It and they are all forced to say, "See Ya Around." With a guitar-heavy beat, Slow will definitely rock anywhere from Atlanta to the Virgin Islands and continue to showcase two acts who won't be best kept secrets much longer.

Question of the Day
What Is the Internet?
May 17 2012
Here in New York, it's "Internet Week," which is a chance for internet people to talk to other internet people in real life about internet stuff and maybe get drunk and have sex with each other, which is something you can't do on the internet. VICE has a bunch of stuff going on during Internet Week and it's all very exciting, but we just used the word "internet" six times in two sentences and we have NO IDEA what the internet actually is. Does anyone? We asked some people to see if they knew.
Brendan, NYU student: What? What is the internet?
Yes. What is the internet?
Uh, I think it's a source of information.
What do you use it for?
Rusty, dog walker: The internet is access to endless information.
Is it evil?
If you have evil intentions or bad ethics, yeah, anything can become evil. But if you use it like a normal person, the internet can be good.
Do you use it like a normal person?
I like to think so.
There's nothing strange on your history?
Nope. If used right, the internet becomes a source of freedom.
Can I ask you a question?
Amit, hotdog vendor: No.
It'll be quick.
What do you want to know?
What is the internet?
I don't know. It's for looking at señoritas. Is that a camera?
Yeah, can I have a picture of you?
Yes, let me put on my hat first. It says "Onion Crunch" on it.
Do you have a computer?
Do you like the internet?
Kimery, advertising person: The internet is for communication between people all over the world!
Do you use the internet?
Yes, every day.
Larry, homeless person: The internet is a World Wide Web where everybody goes to get high. [laughs]
Have you used the internet?
No, but I am on the internet. I'm on a website. They call me the drunken karate kid. (We think he means this video.)
Do you think the internet is bad?
Man, I don't know. There's a lot of weirdos on there. Gotta watch out for weirdos.
Mari, NYU student on the left: Hm. What is the internet?
I'm sorry. I haven't slept in four days.
Finals week?
Yeah. The internet is very perplexing. You have access to all sorts of information, but it's also really dangerous because people can post information that's not true, so it creates multiple realities, both true and false. That's why it's dangerous.
Stacey, Security Guard: VICE Magazine? Isn't that some kind of skater magazine? Look at me. You got the wrong guy. Maybe you should go to the sports shop across the street and ask them.
No, you're fine. It's true, we do love skateboards. But today our question is, "What is the internet?"
[laughs] You were closer to an answer when I thought this was about skateboards. I don't know.
Do you use it?
Only for Facebook. I don't know about the Twitter or the Instagram. I hear about it though.
I wouldn't worry, you're not missing out.

Bought for a vacation condo. Look perfect. Feels like the back is a bit narrow but it takes awhile to get used to a new chair. Hope it stays intact if a large person sits in it.
