Budget proposes pay raise for county employees
Eligible Henrico County employees would receive their first raise in three years as part of Henrico County Manager Virgil Hazelett's proposed 2011-12 budget, presented earlier this month to the Board of Supervisors.
The proposed $1.04 million overall budget (including a $743.6-million general fund) would represent a 2 percent increase from the current budget, with most of that increase coming from fixed cost increases and new grants.
The proposed salary raise of 2.372 percent would be the first bump since FY 2008-09, and Hazelett said it is be possible thanks to a slightly improving economy and continued reductions to various county expenditures.
The budget also calls for a 5 percent increase in water and sewer rates and in water and sewer connection fees but no increase in the county's real estate tax rate of 87 cents per $100 of assessed value.
The water and sewer increases would be used to help fund the construction of the Cobbs Creek Regional Water Supply Reservoir, which will be built in Cumberland County.
Among the proposed cuts: the elimination of 42 vacant positions within general government and 27.5 positions within Henrico County Public Schools' Central Office, and across-the-board operating and capital outlay reductions of 2.5 percent in all areas of general government.
Henrico's general fund revenues have dropped $91.5 million from FY08-09 to FY10-11, but Hazelett said the county's conservative approach to spending has helped prevent officials from having to lay off or furlough any employees during that time.
The anticipated general fund revenues in FY11-12 ($743.6 million) represent a 0.4 percent increase from the expected revenues in FY10-11. County officials anticipate about $273.2 million in property tax revenues during the coming fiscal year – a dip of nearly $3 million from the current budget year – but a slight 1.2 percent increase ($1.2 million) in personal property tax revenues.
Though state funding for education is projected to increase 2.8 percent to $204.7 million, that amount is still less than the county received five years ago. During that time, Hazelett noted, the school system has added nearly 1,000 students and opened five new schools.
Other highlights of the proposed budget include:
• nearly $800,000 in operating costs associated with the Eastern Henrico Recreation Center, which will open on Laburnum Avenue;
• $541,000 for operating costs related to the renovation of the Gayton Branch Library;
• a 10 percent reduction in funding to nonprofit to organizations that request county aid.
Among other items, the proposed Capital Improvement Program budget of $141.4 million would pay for:
• about $100 million in water and sewer projects;
• the renovation and expansion of Fire Station No. 13;
• land and planning costs associated with the replacement of Dumbarton Library;
• the renovation of Pinchbeck Elementary School.
The Board of Supervisors is conducting its annual departmental budget review this week and will hold a public hearing April 12 to solicit public comment on the budget.

The joy that they have, and how they long to share it with you and yet how they live with so little, this is truly a lesson we all can learn. They were so generous and always looking to serve, it was honor to be able to capture these images, and to share them with our friends and family.

Miami-Dade, Fla. Captain, Brockton, Mass. Firefighters Honored for Rescues
Firehouse.com presents interviews with some of the winners of the Annual Firehouse Magazine Heroism & Community Service Awards.
Galligan said that by the time they got there, seven people had already jumped from the second floor. As the two firefighters made their way to the back of the house, they could hear the screams of a grandmother who was holding a baby out of the window by its wrists.
Since the area behind the building was crowded and narrow, they opted to use a 35-foot ground ladder to reach the woman.
"We knew the only way to get over to her was to use ground ladder," Santry said. "Once the ladder was in place, Kevin took the baby from her and handed it back to me."
As the grandmother was led out to safety, she notified the firefighters that her two daughters were still in the building. Galligan climbed into the window to check for them.
"It took me about two crawling steps before I found the first one," he said.
He said both women retreated to a bathroom as the fire spread throughout the building. Galligan said the conditions were some of the worst he has seen.
"There was total absolute zero visibility," he said. "The companies had to do a blitz attack with deck guns" to control the fire.
After transporting the first woman to the window, Galligan knew he couldn't go at it alone. "I grabbed Lt. Santry and told him he had to come in with me," he said.
The second woman -- Sandra Calderon, the mother of the child -- proved a tough task for the two firefighters as they began to fatigue as conditions worsened.
By the time Galligan and Santry moved Calderon to the window, they were too tired to lift her out. That's when Eonas came in to assist the two firefighters in the rescue.
Galligan had brought a thermal imaging camera into the fire, but was unable operate it in the cramped space. "I couldn't lift it to my face," he said.
Fortunately, he left the imager in the house while he pulled out the first woman, and said it came in handy when they went back in for the second as it was sitting right in front of the second woman.
Despite their attempt to save Calderon, she died a few days later from smoke inhalation.
"I still to this day regret not being able to get (Calderon) out" on my own, Galligan, who was promoted to lieutenant two months after the rescue, said. "You do your best and that's the best you can do."
Soon after the fire, Santry received a card from the family, thanking him and the other two firefighters for their efforts.
Asked if he had ever been involved in a rescue attempt of this magnitude, Santry said, "No not this dramatic or intense really. There was no time for a hose line or anything for this.
"Going to the fire, I knew it was going to be bad. Once we were ascending the ladder, I knew we weren't going to have much time to attempt a rescue."
What makes the rescue even more remarkable is the fact that the three firefighters weren't used to working on the same crew. Both Santry and Galligan said the entire operation ran smoothly.
"The biggest thing that I got out of it was that the training we get from this department really prepared us for the worst of the worst," Santry said. "All the things I learned here came like clockwork."
Galligan echoed his comrade's sentiment, "Nothing goes flawless, but it went just like we planned for ... There was no stopping; there was no discussion."

Thank you for sharing this. It's one area where youth workers and churches are, in my experience, woefully under-trained.

What tips / tricks would you wish you knew the second time around?
Spend more money up front to get the better more complete kit (i.e. wort chiller, better capper, etc).
The joy of making your own recipe or using one from this site instead of using a "pre-made" kit. More joy of actually creating something of your own design than someone else's kit.
forget bottling... PITFA.
Start with all grain, you'll end up there anyway. Also, purchase equipment for 10 gallon batches you'll end up there too. Something I wish I had done up front is make a keggle, I bought a B315 pot from morebeer.com, and although it is a great pot it is too wide in diameter. I am currently trying to source kegs off of craigslist. Wort chiller is a must make your own, it will be better, and cheaper. Invest in a pump it will come in handy. Get a subscription to BYO, and Zymurgy they are great publications. Ask, ask, and ask more here on HBT because there are some brewing geniuses on this site.
I would have moved into AG sooner. I had in my head that a proper mash tun, HLT and a propane burner were absolutely necessary.
When it came down to it, I did my first AG on my stove. I employed a used, uninsulated $15 HDPE drum for the mash tun and my bottling bucket (5 gal pail) for the HLT. I used reinforced PVC tubing for the manifold and a water bottle with holes poked in the bottom for the sparge arm.
It made beer. Wasn't great but it was drinkable. Had I known this worked, I would have switched to AG after my 3rd or 4th extract batch.
Hey, knock that shvt off. We're drinkin' here.
I probably would have liked to have a wort chiller up front, but most of my knowledge I'm glad I didn't know up front. It was all a part of the "quest" we love so much. Every time you learn something new, you want to do more. Some of that may have been spoiled if I knew up front.
i would not have passed up killer deals on equipment at scrap yards i didn't think i needed (at the time).
if somebody told me i would not stop until i had spent more money on brewing equipment than 2 of my 3 vehicles, i would have laughed maniacally.
Pay attention to fermentation temp. Don't secondary. Make starters.
All cheap stuff that would have made my beer a lot better and saved me time.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. - C. S. Lewis, English essayist & juvenile novelist (1898 - 1963)
If I were to do it again, i would still start extract. The only thing I would do different about that is get a 10gal pot to do full-boils and then not have to buy another one for AG. And like someone said above, go directly to kegging instead of bottling.

Richard Drew, Associated Press
NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks dropped sharply Thursday after the Supreme Court upheld the central provision of President Barack Obama's health care overhaul, a requirement that almost all Americans carry health insurance.
The Dow Jones industrial average, which was down about 100 points before the court ruled, fell further and was down 160 points at 11 a.m. EDT.
Health care stocks were down significantly, but bank stocks were the biggest losers in the broader market.
JPMorgan fell the most of the 30 stocks in the Dow average after the New York Times reported that its loss from a complex trade that went wrong could swell to $9 billion, much larger than the bank has acknowledged. The bank had said previously the loss was $2 billion but could get larger. JPMorgan lost $1.10, or 3 percent, to $35.69.
Stocks of major insurance companies fell sharply as analysts sorted through the ruling. UnitedHealth Group declined 3 percent, WellPoint almost 6 percent and AFLAC 1.5 percent.
Hospital chains rose. Hospital Corp. of America was up 7 percent. Quest Diagnostics, which runs laboratories, was up 2.5 percent.
Investors were also punishing bank stocks because British regulators escalated their inquiry into the manipulation of a key interest rate. Citigroup, Britain's HSBC, Switzerland's UBS and the Royal Bank of Scotland were also named by British regulators in the probe.
Barclays Bank of Britain has already been fined $453 million for manipulating the benchmark interest rate to its advantage between 2005 and 2009. The London interbank offered rate, or LIBOR, is used for setting rates on a wide variety of loans including consumer loans and mortgages.
The U.S.-listed shares of Barclays plunged 15 percent, giving up $1.84 to $10.49. UBS lost 50 cents to $11.02 and Citigroup fell 50 cents to $26.58.
Bank stocks fell the most of the 10 industries tracked by the Standard & Poor's 500 index. All 10 indexes were down.
There was little for investors to like in new reports on the U.S. economy.
The U.S. economy grew at an annual rate of just 1.9 percent in the January-March quarter, according to a new government estimate. Consumer spending, which accounts for a huge part of the economy, grew 2.5 percent, below the previous 2.7 percent estimate. The four-week average of applications for unemployment benefits didn't decline, a sign that layoffs aren't easing.
In other trading, the Standard & Poor's 500 index fell 17 points, or 1.3 percent, to 1,314 and the technology Nasdaq composite index was off 47 points at 2,828. That's a loss of 1.6 percent.
News Corp. fell 1 percent after the media conglomerate said it would separate its publishing and entertainment businesses into two public companies. The stock or Rupert Murdoch's sprawling media empire, which includes The Wall Street Journal, the Fox TV network, Fox News Channel and newspapers in Australia and Britain, gave up 35 cents to $21.96.
Family Dollar Stores fell $1.13 to $68 after the discount retailer of household goods and food reported earnings and revenue that were short of what Wall Street analysts were expecting.
Paychex dropped $1.21 to $30.72. The company, which provides payroll, human resources and benefits services to employers, reported revenue was shy of what analysts were expecting

Jennifer Kesse Still Missing, Video Tape Released by Police
16 months into the investigation into the disappearance of Jennifer Kesse, Orlando police have released a video tape of what they say is a suspect in the case. The supposed break in this case is more or less information that has been present for quite some time. However, now the police have agreed to make public this information and let the general public see the video.
See VIDEO HERE.
The problem is, they lack a clear photo, a name and cannot say for sure whether it is a man or a woman.
But after months of debate between Kesse's parents and detectives — and solid leads exhausted — police decided Thursday to release a grainy, out-of-focus, wide-angle surveillance-camera video showing a person who parked Kesse's car at a south Orlando condominium complex. The suspect, estimated to be 5 feet 3 inches to 5 feet 5 inches tall, then was recorded walking away by another security camera about noon Tuesday, Jan. 24, 2006. (Sun Sentinel)

Jennifer Kesse: Still Missing Without a Trace
A week ago the Orlando police released that grainy video to the public. The video shows someone parking Kesse's car in a condominium lot near her home on the day she disappeared.
Police say they didn't release the video earlier because they were hoping to use it to check the story of any suspects. Sgt. Barbara Jones of the Orlando Police Department told ABC News that the video was held back "as an investigative tool to be able to lock a suspect into the story," but added that "its release could generate more leads, significant leads which may break the case."
Police hope that, despite the rough quality of the video, it might jog someone's memory about seeing that person that night. Kesse, at 5 feet 8 inches, is at least four inches taller than the person on the video. She has sandy blond shoulder-length hair and green eyes and weighs 125 pounds. But the past week has yet to yield results. (ABC News)
On The Record interview with Drew & Joyce Kesse, transcript from "On the Record ," May 17, 2007
DREW KESSE: I think they're father ahead. Are we close? No, I don't think we're close. There's a lot still just very unknown. You know, a lot of times, the word vanishment (ph) comes up. I have to be honest with you. But leads are still being called in every day. It's an amazing thing that, you know, 15-and-a-half months, we still get leads. We have a personal lead phone. Just last week, there were seven leads on that phone alone that came to us. So the community is very aware, and actually, the United States is very aware. And the calls come in, they just have not been the proper call.

Hull 0 Chelsea 2: Petr Cech earns record-breaking clean sheet as Eden Hazard repays boss Jose Mourinho's unwavering faith
Published: 11 January 2014
Updated: 20:02, 11 January 2014
Eden Hazard repaid Jose Mourinho's unflinching faith with the decisive goal as Chelsea went top of the Barclays Premier League with a 2-0 victory at Hull.
With Paris St Germain reportedly ready to make Chelsea an eye-watering offer for the Belgian playmaker, Mourinho said this week he would not even entertain a £100million bid.
And he underlined his increasing value to the Blues with a skilful 57th-minute effort that broke down Hull's otherwise impressive resistance before Fernando Torres made it safe three minutes from time.
Hazard, who cut into the box before finishing emphatically into the bottom corner, is Chelsea's top scorer with nine league goals and PSG may be advised to look elsewhere if they are in the market for January additions.
Torres was less influential but was still able to celebrate his 200th Premier League appearance by finding the net, Hull having opened up in pursuit of an equaliser.
The result was particularly hard on home keeper Allan McGregor, who put in a fine shift capped by one of the saves of the season from Oscar with the game still goalless.
A series of sloppy passes characterised the opening minutes, with players from both sides surrendering possession cheaply.
Tom Huddlestone was a notable exception in midfield, showing a calmness on the ball that helped Hull settle quickest.
It was the hosts who had the first shot of the game in the seventh minute, but Ahmed Elmohamady's effort was never likely to trouble Petr Cech, who surpassed Peter Bonetti's club record 208 clean sheets at the KC Stadium.
The Egyptian saw plenty of the early action, three times beating Ashley Cole for pace down the right wing without ever finding a cross to match.
Chelsea's first real opportunity saw Torres spring the offside trap but by the time he had set himself to shoot Alex Bruce was back to make the block.
By and large, though, it was Hull doing the best work and they will have been disappointed not to have scored before the break.
Jake Livermore had one decent effort from distance - denied by Cech after Yannick Sagbo had gamely held the ball up in the corner under close attention from Gary Cahill.
But it was Sagbo himself who had the Tigers' best chance.
John Terry was the culprit, sending a reckless pass across his own area only for Livermore to partially intercept and send the ball spinning towards Sagbo.
The Ivorian shot first time from 10 yards but missed the target and spared the Chelsea captain's blushes.
The visitors were stronger after that and were only denied a goal of their own by McGregor's remarkable save.
Ramires' deft chip gave Hazard room to place his cross from the byline and when it reached Oscar close to to penalty spot, the Brazilian seemed certain to convert.
In truth he did little wrong, shooting powerfully towards the roof of the net, but McGregor reacted superbly to divert the ball over the crossbar.
The Scotland keeper was required again just before the break when David Luiz's swerving free-kick threatened to creep under the crossbar and the half-time whistle came as a welcome break for the hosts.
Hazard emerged as the man most likely to get Chelsea on the scoresheet as the second period began, beating two men on his way into the area and winning a corner before helping earn a dangerous free-kick.
Luiz aimed for the near side of goal but again found McGregor alert to the danger.
Hazard eventually took the responsibility himself.
Luiz and Cole played him in after a neat combination on the left and the Belgian produced what is fast becoming his trademark finish.
He cut inside twice to create his preferred angle, wrongfooting the Hull defence and leaving Bruce sprawling, before clinically finding the bottom corner.
The game was not without entertainment in the final half hour, but there was an unavoidable sense that Hazard's effort had settled things.
A Huddlestone free-kick was Hull's likeliest chance but came to nothing, while Chelsea had plenty of possession in the final third and should have made life easier on themselves.
Willian, in particular, sparked into life and began picking holes in the Tigers defence.
Oscar was denied a near-certain goal for the second time in the match when Curtis Davies deflected his close-range effort over but Torres did make sure in the 87th minute.
He had enough pace to jockey Bruce out of position as he bore down on goal and finished crisply to secure the points.

I have had the greatest learning experiences through participating outside of the classroom.
When she first visited the University of Illinois, Molly Messner, now a student in agricultural and consumer economics (ACE), was impressed by all the options the ACE major offers. Although Molly does not come from an agricultural background, she was immediately interested in the public policy and law concentration and learning more about trade and development and rural economics.
"I was looking forward to getting a taste of economics with a mix of political science, business, and communications classes," Molly says. "This led me to eventually choose business and communications as my two minors, because they complement the public policy and law concentration well."
Molly says that in addition to the variety available in her classes, she enjoys the small, close-knit community that ACE offers. She attributes much of her academic success to the accessibility of College of ACES advisors and the resources they can provide.
"U of I has prepared me for my future career path through my education in various sectors of policy, and I have benefited from both coursework and out-of-class experiences," Molly says. "I am interested in working for the government, and it is through my classes, peers, and advisors that I am aware of the plentiful opportunities available for internships and jobs in Washington, DC."
On campus, Molly is a Jonathan Baldwin Turner scholar, a resident advisor, and a member of a social sorority. She also plays on the women's ultimate frisbee club team. She has served as an ACE ambassador, worked as a Campus Recreation lifeguard, and studied abroad through ACES.
"When I first visited, I was very intimidated by the number of people on this campus," Molly says. "But there are many ways to stand out and not feel like a small fish lost in a big pond. I have had the greatest learning experiences through participating outside of the classroom."

Series Detail
Information about the series
Speech production is a complex sensorimotor task that requires the coordination of numerous physically complex and very different biological systems. Furthermore, it is a sophisticated cognitive task that transmits information between speakers and listeners. Speech perception uses multi-modal information combining visible articulatory movements and audible acoustic properties in an adaptive way.
Understanding the cognitive, motor and sensory mechanisms that underlie speech production and perception is a fascinating objective that requires interdisciplinary competences in various research areas such as linguistics, perception, psychology, cognition, neuroscience, motor control, biology, aerodynamics, acoustics, and biomechanics.
The aim of this book series is to investigate the various mechanisms underlying speech production and perception. Each issue of this series will be devoted to a specific topic. This topic will be addressed from different, sometimes even controversial perspectives. Tutorials, up-to-date scientific papers, methodological reports and outstanding dissertations will be at the core of the series. The intended readers are graduate students and scientists from various research disciplines interested in speech production and perception.
Scholars are welcome to submit suitable works to the editors. All articles in edited volumes undergo a double-blind peer review. All dissertations undergo a close reading by the series editors and authors will be invited to revise where required.

X.Org Foundation Loses Its 501(c)(3) Status
Published on 23 August 2013 01:22 PM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
47 Comments
The X.Org Foundation has lost its 501(c)(3) non-profit status and is now seeking new options, including possibly joining a larger organization.
It was revealed this week that the X.Org Foundation is no longer a 501(c)(3) organization as they failed to file their taxes on time (or at all) for the past three years or possibly as far back as 2005.
Stuart Kreitman, the X.Org Foundation accountant and Oracle employee, wrote during the Board of Directors' IRC meeting this week, "The status of the 501c3 is lost because we (me) failed to file the 3 past years' tax returns on time. Note that we've Never filed returns since our first re-organization to the LLC in 2005. I was taken by surprize that the IRS hit us so rudely. I've had little issues with my own returns and have always found them to be reasonable and friendly."
The foundation only officially obtained 501(c)(3) status with the US government
in 2012
after years of paper wrangling and delayed work. The foundation really didn't even get around to taking advantage of its non-profit status with no major fundraising drivers or soliciting for donations from major corporations having a stake in X.Org-related open-source projects.
Sadly this isn't the first time that the X.Org Foundation has run into accounting troubles or mismanagement. X.Org has lost funds in the past due to banking issues, PayPal issues, and an assortment of other actions due to either delayed action or inaction on the behalf of the accountant and the board. After
in Chicago, the student group who helped us secure a reduced rate for the venue even had their student rights temporarily revoked by the university due to the X.Org Foundation not paying their bill on time. So seeing X.Org lose its 501(c)(3) status is hardly a surprise.
Per the
IRC meeting minutes
, the board is now thinking about having the X.Org Foundation join an umbrella organization like the SPI, the Apache Foundation, or other free-software-focused organizations for riding some benefits like a non-profit status while having to deal less in paperwork and other managerial matters.

They are going to report earnings after the US markets close. They are rumored to be going to report .08 and .10 was expected. A small miss but enough to send many traders into fleeing the stock. Be ready to buy more, either just before the close or on Friday, at bargain prices.

Farmers Insurance Co. is balking on paying out additional claims to local governmental agencies stemming from last spring's flooding, asserting that the damages it has settled could have been easily avoided. The company filed suit April 17 against nine northeastern Illinois counties and many of the towns within them, including Naperville.
The city, DuPage County and 28 other municipalities are named in one of the class action suits filed at the county level on the one-year anniversary of flooding that affected about 9,000 DuPage properties and led to $15 million in federal flood relief payments to county residents and business owners. Naperville, which straddles two counties, also is included in a separate complaint that names Will County and a dozen municipalities.
The filings assert that Farmers is not responsible for the widespread flood damage because the damage could have been avoided, according to company spokesman Trent Frager.
"Farmers has taken what we believe is the necessary action to recover payments made on behalf of our customers, for damages caused by what we believe to be a completely preventable issue, as well as to prevent it from happening again," said a statement Frager issued earlier this week.
He declined to specify the sums being sought in the complaints.
Stuart Brody, partner in the Chicago law firm Sneckenberg Thompson & Brody LLC, is arguing the case for Farmers. He said it involves losses the company already has covered, and that flood damage sustained by private property owners will be considered separately in the courts.
He took a pass on the question of what steps could have been taken by the defendants to prevent the flood damage.
"I'll let the people testifying in court, any experts who may or may not take part in the litigation, answer that," he said.
Local defendants did not yet have responses to the suit. Naperville spokeswoman Linda LaCloche said neither the city's legal department nor its clerk had been served notice of the suit as of midweek. DuPage County hadn't received official word either.
"We have not yet been served and we're aware of the suit by Farmers," said Paul Darrah, spokesman for State's Attorney Bob Berlin. "Because of that, we'll be withholding comment at this time."
Anastasia Tuskey, spokeswoman for Will County Executive Larry Walsh, also said their office had not seen the suit, and "on the advice of legal counsel will not comment on pending litigation."

updating the website http://www.vivienblackburn.com/
I'd find it really helpful if you would look and comment on the website - how would you improve it? (remembering I can't go into the html and change things, I have to work within the templates given - though they are fairly flexible)
Katherine gave me some excellent advice, which I'm working my way through. One was not to have such a long list of pages on the left but to have fewer and then sub pages within them - what do you think? (I have to work out how to do that!) ... what else?
The purpose of the site is mainly to showcase my work to potential new galleries - so I can't put prices on.
Any feedback and advice would be gratefully received - even if I don't agree or can't do it! opinions and views are valuable.
Thank you :>)
I thought I'd add an image so this isn't just text :>)
This is a sketch done at the zoo one February - it was bitterly cold, I was outside and they were watching me from a couple of inches away, the other side of thick plate glass. They were in a heated room - I was out in a cold windy covered viewing tunnel.
The mother was fascinated by what I was doing and the baby was racing about playing - I had to sketch him each time he returned to his mother. They had some sheets and she had wrapped one around her and looked like a little old washer woman.
She was so intelligent that I felt it was only good manners to talk to her and show her what I was doing :>) - she seemed interested and leaned forward for a better look.

I am glad you have added sketchbooks to your website, Vivien. Sketchbooks are my favorite thing, though, of course, I love paintings. Maybe because I am enchanted by the whole story of works in process or even of just little Moments in Time that interest an artist
Usually sketchbooks are the first thing I look for in a website. This seemed easy to find when I just looked.

I really can't find a thing to nit pick in regards to your website and comments. I find that the website offers a strong body of work with comments that give a strong sense of where you are coming from. I can tell a commitment to art that goes beyond just painting images because you can. Does that make sense? Anyway just my humble opinion. Great website.

I agree about looking at sketchbooks - I'd sooner look at an artists sketchbooks than the finished works often.
Yes Jafa it does make sense :)

I think your presentation of grouped images is clearer now. I love that I can see many images on one page. I too love sketchbooks. They are so fresh and lively. The primates are beautiful. I think the drawing is all the more amazing for the fact that you were freezing.

Mitchell, Morrill accept county's version of Interlocal agreement
The Mitchell and Morrill city councils Tuesday night approved the county's version of a proposed Interlocal agreement to provide funds for equipment upgrades at the Scotts Bluff County Communications Center. But the legal fight between the county, and the cities of Gering and Minatare has just started.
The cities yesterday filed documents in Scotts Bluff County District Court requesting injunctive relief to prevent Scotts Bluff County from terminating the two communities participation in the Communication Center Inter-Local agreement and to keep the County from following through on threats to terminate dispatch service after December 17th.
The complaint asks for a hearing to be scheduled to consider their request. The complaint claims the County did not provide the proper 180 days notice of termination in a letter dated June 30th to all participating comunities. In that letter the County set a December 17th deadline for Interlocal partners to sign the proposed contract dealing with costs for new equipment at the Communications Center or face termination of their dispatch service.
Gering and Minatare have rejected the County's proposal and approved an alternate agreement that calls for a re-evaluation of the agreement in three years rather than the open ended agreement wanted by the County.
The County Tuesday refused to accept Minatare's Interlocal agreement and their check for the first year of the proposed agreement, and have promised to do the same when Gering presents their alternate agreement.

Pakistan does not deserve David Cameron's insults
What is this? Open season on Pakistan? Ok, so the Pakistanis can be immensely frustrating to deal with, and have not always, as the recent Wikileaks documents have shown, been the most reliable of allies. But that was then, when the country languished under the dictatorship of General Pervez Musharraf, who was reluctant to act against the Taliban.
But following the country's return to democracy, Pakistan has become a valued and effective ally in the war on terror, and has suffered immeasurably more casualties than Nato as its military has gone head-to-head with the Taliban in the lawless tribal territory to the north of the country. For this reason David Cameron should be praising Pakistan's contribution, rather than castigating Islamabad as he has done during his visit to neighbouring India.
Mr Cameron might revel in his "Cameron direct" approach, but he risks alienating a great many of this country's important allies unless he learns to balance his plain speaking with some good old-fashioned common sense. It is a long time since a serving British prime minister has managed to cause two major diplomatic incidents during an overseas jaunt, but Mr Cameron has managed precisely that during this week's visit to Turkey and India.
His comment about the Gaza "prison" provoked an outraged response from the Israeli Embassy in London, while his patronising treatment of Pakistan has now elicited a similar response from the Pakistani High Commission.
No doubt Mr Cameron and his advisors think that this policy will pay dividends because, at the very least, it is generating lots of headlines and helping to raise Mr Cameron's international profile. But at what price? This country's overwhelming national security issue to resolve the Afghan conflict, and I fail to see how our prospects in the war will be improved by causing serious offence to one of our major allies in the war.

Can I qualify for an FHA loan if I have been solely a co-borrower recently on another home?
You should be all set. FHA requires 2 years from a bankruptcy without a short sale or foreclosure. You shouldn't have any bad credit (lates or collects) since the BK.
Renovation Loan - 203K - When does repayment begin?
On a streamline 203k ($35,000 or less in renovations) the payments typically start aproximately 30+ days after the loan closes. On a full 203k (renovations above $35,000) you can add up to 6 months of payments into the loan. However the payments are supposed to start once you occuppy the property.
SHOULD A SELLER PAY THE BUYERS CLOSING COSTS? What you need to know...
Dan the country_hick, The point I was trying to make on VA loans is people have bought homes with no down payment for years. Consumers buy everything without a down payment. You can buy a $100,000 auto and drive it to Canada. There was only one main change in mortgage underwriting 5 years ago.Consumers were not required to prove they had enough income to handle the payments.
SHOULD A SELLER PAY THE BUYERS CLOSING COSTS? What you need to know...
If I was selling my house I'd offer to pay closing costs and send the buyers family to disney world if needed. All a seller needs to be concerned with is his bottom line. In this market the seller should be doing everything he can to incourage a buyer to come take a look at his house including offering higher commisions to the selling broker. Bottom line what ever works.People who think down payments had anything to do with the housing market meltdown are out of touch with the market. VA has offered no down payment no closing costs to veterans since WWII. Which lead to an economic boom in the 1950's.Lack of documented income is what caused the recent meltdown.
how can I contact someone who wants to look at my property without showing my email?
one way is to go to gmail. open a free e-mail account takes less than a minute. use that e-mail account to contact them.
How to refinance if under water?
FYI Its a new program and the guidelines maybe different than a standard FHA program but ussually in order to do a new FHA loan your condominium development has to be FHA approved or approvable?Which means it needs to be less than 50% investor units (rentals). and one person can't own more than 10% of the units in the condominium development. Brian
How to refinance if under water?
Best Answer
FHA has a new program coming out in September. That might work for you.Its designed specificaly for people in your situation. When FHA makes changes and anouncements they notify everyone through mortgagee letters. The one I'm referring to is 2010-23 google "mortgagee letter 2010-23"
How to refinance if under water?
I want to make sure your not letting an oppurtunity pass by.Your correct that NHHFA doesn't do any refinances.Even though its called it a first time buyer program doesn't mean it wasn't also an FHA loan. The majority of the NHHFA are done in combination with something else. Four years ago most of the NHHFA were done in combination with FHA.
How to refinance if under water?
Sounds like you may have a New Hampshire Housing finance authority loan.four years ago many of them were done in combination with an FHA loan.check your closing documents to see if FHA was involved.If so you can probably do an FHA streamline refinance.
if I want to sell without listing with a realtor, what is the upside and what is the downside?
There is nothing magical about selling a property. A property like anything else sells for two reasons Price and Promotion. If its worth $200,000 and you list it for $500,000 you can promote the hell out it by advertising on national TV but more than likely it will never sell. You can say you'll sell it for $150,000 but if you never tell anyone it's for sale it'll never sell. If you ask 3 RE broker's to give you a market analysis you will have a very good idea where it should be priced. The more you market it the better chance you have of getting offers. There is no better way to market a home forsale than MLS. I believe 90% of homes sell through MLS. RE brokers have access to MLS. In my opinion to get the most exposure and highest price your property needs to be in MLS. The 2nd benefit to using a RE broker is negotiations. If you have to show property how do you get a potential buyer to make an offer. And if the buyer does make an offer what do you say. You may think it'll be easy but its not face to face for most people. A potential buyer will never tell about the things he doesn't like about the house but he'll tell a broker. and then the broker can make suggestions to overcome teh objectives. Its just better for your bottom line if you have a middle man. A good RE broker is worth his/her weight in gold especially if a problem comes up.. A poor one is a waste of money. People think their saving a commission fee what they don't know is they could have gotten a better price using a broker and its less work.
