Thomas was a master electrician, who owned and operated Pappy's Electric for almost 50 years, mentoring many local boys in the trade. He was well respected among the trades. He had a special bond with all his family, and employed most of them at one time or another. Thomas and his family were all avid skiers, spending many winters skiing around New England in the early days. He also enjoyed taking ski trips out West and Europe with family and friends. He was our "Ski King."

President Mwai Kibaki on Friday inaugurated a Chinese-funded mega road construction project which is expected to ease traffic jam in Nairobi.
Estimated to cost Sh8.5 billion (US$112), the Northern and Eastern Bypasses are part of the government's major infrastructure development program aimed at making Kenya the regional business hub.
The Kenyan government will finance 15% of the project (Sh1.2 billion) while the Chinese will finance the remaining 85% (Sh7.3 billion).
The 31 km long Northern Bypass starts from Ruaka trading centre on Limuru road, overpasses Banana road and reaches Closeburn farm. It then passes Kahawa West and Kamae and proceeds to Ruiru and joins the Eastern bypass. On the other hand, the 39km long Eastern Bypass links Thika Road to Mombasa Road near Highway Cabanas Restaurant.
The work is being undertaken by China Road and Bridge Corporation and is expected to be complete by 2012.
Speaking during the launch ceremony, President Kibaki thanked the Chinese government for providing the necessary financial support in the form of a concessional loan for construction of the two bypasses, saying his government recognized the importance of an efficient road transport network in facilitating economic and social development.
"It is for this reason that the government is implementing various measures to tackle traffic congestion in our urban centers, " Kibaki said.
Kibaki further thanked the Chinese government for supporting Kenya's development over the years, especially through continued support in several infrastructure projects.
On his part, Chinese Ambassador to Kenya Deng Hongbo pledged quality workmanship on the various projects being undertaken by Chinese companies.
"China will continue to encourage its companies to invest in Kenya to share technological advances and strengthen the existing cordial relations between the two countries," Deng said.

Hi all,
I have ported a huge code base (originally written in 'C') for Symbian 7.0s using 'Series60_v21b ' SDK.
I have tested the code for WINS Emulator and works properly. Now I'm cross building it for ARMI Urel target. The build process never comes to an end & it appears as if it hangs while linking. I waited for an hour or so & later it came out saying 'virtual memory exhausted'.
When I comment out substantial part of this huge code, the linking goes through.
Same behaviour was observed using S60 SDK for Symbian 6.1
Can someone explain how to get around this problem ? Will using CodeWarrier instead of this SDK help ?

News: Nas Hooks Up W/ Music Pioneer For "Illmatic"'s 20th Anniversary
Saturday, Feb 1, 2014 11:00PM
Rap veteran Nas has reportedly decided to hook back up with longtime music pal DJ Premier for an upcoming event launching next month.
According to reports, Nasty Nas and Preemo will both team up for March's BUKU Music + Art Project.
In celebration of the 20th anniversary of Illmatic, Nas will be hitting the stage with DJ Premier to perform the classic album in its entirety at the 2014 BUKU Music + Art Project. Besides the Queens legend running through the 1994 Hip Hop masterpiece, other rap stars scheduled to appear at the 2-day festival include Chance The Rapper, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, Tyler The Creator, Pusha T, Schoolboy Q, and Danny Brown. Big Freedia will also be on hand for the "Twerk Lesson" fan interactive experience. Artists from various genres will perform across five stages including the VIP-Only stage located aboard the S.S. BUKU riverboat. The 18 & over event is taking place at Mardi Gras World on March 21- 22, 2014. (AHH)
Despite dropping Stillmatic in 2001, Nas recently admitted an Illmatic 2 was not a ludicrous idea.
Nas says that his next album is well under way and fans should expect the new project this year. The veteran MC also touched on the idea of an Illmatic 2. "Yes and No, I've thought about it before," Nas tells VIBE on whether he would want to record a sequel to his debut album. "I definitely though about that. It just has to flow, it has to be natural. I can work on that and if I don't like it [just scrap it]," Nas continues. "I have to feel it. It got to to be honest." (VIBE)
In summer 2012, Nas spoke on Illmatic drawing on various jazz connections.
"A couple of years ago, I just started to really appreciate the opportunities that I've had, the places that I've traveled and the people I met and just the life that God gave me. So I felt like 'life is good' was a positive message that we should just say to each other during such challenging times. Just have to remember the important things, you know? A lot of producers that I like, they sample a lot of jazz. They are inspired by jazz, so a lot of their music comes out that way. So a lot of the stuff I rapped on sounds like jazz. I was talking to Sting one time and he had heard Illmatic -- someone played it for him -- and he said, 'It's a jazz album!' I love that he said that because I got jazz in my soul." (MTV)
"God's Son" previously talked about needing to get familiar with Illmatic tribute records.
"I wanna get a chance to sit down and vibe to those sh*ts 'cause those are not records that I just wanna play," Nas, who said he's flattered whenever MCs pay homage to Illmatic, told XXL. "Those are records I wanna sit down and really get into and see what the h*ll they about on the sh*t. That's some cool sh*t, though. Real cool sh*t. I love that they did it." (XXL Mag)

We're used to winning. We love our GM, and hell, our blog is named after him. We have been one of the NHL's most elite teams over the last 20 years, and we don't miss the playoffs much, something only Red Wings fans can hold over us in better light. However, much like the rest of our fan base, I've started to worry a bit. I'm not talking about the impulsive panic mode kind of worrying, rather the more dangerous of "is there anyone home" type of worrying.
Lou doesn't like making big splashes; he's not Ray Shero. The Kovalchuk deal caught us all by surprise for sure, as did Zach Parise's departure from free agency. This is a team that always seems to have an answer, but I think they keep using this "status quo" excuse because of the fact that they actually do not have an answer this time around. I think the coaching staff, the front office, and even teammates are scared to admit that they completely underestimated losing Zach Parise. We have survived the loss of big named players in the past, but nobody contributed more to the system than Zach did this time around.
With Marty on his way out, and our defense looking like crud, I'm starting to get a little antsy. Not to mention our past few first rounders haven't really panned out all that well, and despite what we all think of Scott Wedgewood and Keith Kinkaid, scouts from around juniors and college have consistently said that these guys are not NHL goaltenders by the slightest margin (I actually think Kinkaid has a great shot though, and I'm a Long Islander so I'm rooting for him).
With all of that being said, is it time that we take a step back and see what we can get? Should Lou sell away a few roster guys and drain even more picks for a dangerous sniper like Thomas Vanek? We've proven that we cannot score, and that even when we have one goal leads, we cannot hold them. Is Lou doing something completely under the radar like he did with Kovalchuk? Remember, nobody really knew that it happened until it happened.
Lou has made some great calls, but nobody is perfect. Loktionov was a steal and he'll be here for a while. D'agostini might get hot once he gets used to the system. But like the previous fan post said, our defense down the line as it currently stands flat out sinks below the competition, and some of our promising prospects are not quite NHL ready.
Point being, our team might have depth, but it isn't a good kind of deep. To me, it's a pool of mediocrity, like a Big Gulp filled with 28 different sodas. The colors of the rainbow may be beautiful when they're neatly separated, but if you put all of them together in one bucket, all you get is a mucky shade of brown.
Oh, and by the way, I can't wait for Reid Boucher. Let's hope we haven't over hyped him.

Dubuque and Platteville, Wis., are two of 20 finalists for the prestigious All-America City Award for 2013.
Delegates from both cities are heading to Denver, Colo., this weekend for Sunday's naming of the 10 recipients.
The All-America City Awards go every year to municipalities that applied for it and demonstrate outstanding civic programs and engagement.
Dubuque won the All-America City Award in 2007 and 2012 and is hoping to make this two years running.
The city and the Dubuque Area Chamber of Commerce teamed up in this year's application.
"This is like the Academy Award for communities, for cities, for metropolitan areas," Dubuque Area Chamber of Commerce president Molly Grover said. "To win this sort of award is a celebration that we all share. It doesn't just belong to the city. It doesn't just belong to the business community. It's a true public and private collaboration that everyone can be proud of."
She said the award is something the entire community can share.
"It's great in attracting tourists. It's great for our residents to be able to celebrate. It's kind of validation for us to say that, 'Yes, you're doing it right. You're doing a good job,'" Grover said. "It's a celebration that we share with the entire community. It's a great attraction tool for visitors and businesses alike."
This year's award criteria had a special focus on programs for veterans and military families.
The National Civic League distributes the All-America City Awards, which it calls the nation's oldest and most respected civic recognition program.

This is the second post in a three-part series on creating geoprocessing models in ArcGIS.
ModelBuilder 101 covered five steps to create a basic model. One of the main advantages of building a model is the ability to quickly test multiple scenarios. This post shows how to support scenario testing when a model is run as a tool.
- Confused about what running a model as a tool means? In the ModelBuilder application a model appears as a visual diagram. Outside of ModelBuilder you can run a model from a tool dialog box (double-click the model in the ArcMap Catalog window).
In ModelBuilder, you can open any tool, change its settings, and quickly run the model again to explore alternative scenarios. That's great, but convenience matters too. When running a model as a tool, you can explore alternative scenarios by changing model parameters—all at once, in one place. Let's talk the P-word. Continue reading

The Labrador Retriever topped the list of most loved dog breeds in Israel in 2008, according to figures released by the Agriculture Ministry's Veterinary Services last week. The "smiling" and patient Labrador was followed at the top of the list by the noisy and jumpy Pinscher, which was awarded the respectable title of Israel's most popular dog breed in 2007.
My beloved Standard Poodle was no where to be found on the list. :-(

Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick is downplaying the Department of Transitional Assistance admission that it could not locate 19,000 people who have either been receiving welfare benefits or have applied for them, saying the number represents a "broader class of people than those who are actually on the rolls today."
At a news conference, the Governor kept referring to the number of people whose addresses could not be located as just "four percent" of the mailings.
This was discovered after nearly half a million letters were sent out to settle a lawsuit filed against Massachusetts last year in part by the liberal think tank, "Demos."
The Department of Transitional Assistance says 19,000 letters came back, marked "Return to Sender."
A spokesman for the Executive Office of Health & Human Services says 11,262 people were either already off the rolls or had never been approved for benefits. It also says 7,738 were returned with forwarding addresses. Still, Governor Patrick says people should continue to have confidence in the state's ability to oversee welfare benefits...
The group filed suit against Massachusetts because the DTA was not giving welfare recipients the opportunity to register to vote. That suit was filed on behalf of a Lowell woman who said she was never offered an opportunity to register to vote.
As part of the settlement, the state agreed to mail out 478,000 letters to welfare recipients, at a cost of $276,000. The daughter of Senator Elizabeth Warren, Amelia Tyagi, is chairwoman of the Board of the advocacy group. During the senate campaign, then Senator Scott Brown criticized the state, arguing the mass mailing was a plan to push more democrat voters to the polls.

Ned Drew & Paul Sternberger
By Its Cover: Modern American Book Cover Design
In this groundbreaking and lavishly illustrated history, Drew and Sternberger establish American book cover design as an evolution of sophisticated, visual languages that have shaped to our literary landscape. The book traces stylistic progressions in American commercial book cover design, from the introduction of European modernism through contemporary trends. The study goes further to explore cultural implications of this visual material, from the interaction between art and design, to the interrelationship between publisher and designer, to the theorization of the social utility of design.
Sternberger's other books include Between Amateur and Aesthete: The Legitimization of Photography in America, 1880-1900, while Drew has also authored Design Education in Progress: Process and Methodology, Volumes 1, 2 and 3.

Willis on Purdue, IU, UK, UofL
Gary Harris sets record ... as a receiver
With Willis, I think he is referring to us when he says looking for "how hard they work and how intense practices are." It also sounds like UofL takes a drop b/c of the disappointed fans turnout.
With Blueitt, and the Class of 2014 in general, do you think a super-strong 2012 and 2013 will deter some 2014 players because they know they won't be getting the playing time? (Although IU's pretty loaded too, but not at SG, so the argument doesn't apply to Blueitt)
With Harris, darn, what an athlete! I love football players to play basketball (yes, that includes Bade, although he fouls too much to be effective). They bring some necessary toughness. Chris Kramer and Aaron Craft are prime examples.
As an aside, I haven't heard anything from our first practice, which gotta be good news! (We all remember what happened in the first practice last year)

The RI Dept. of Health, in conjunction with several towns and cities across the state, will hold public vaccination clinics for protection against influenza, pneumonia, and pertussis (whooping cough).
While their is no current outbreak of any of the aforementioned illnesses, the Dept. of Health maintains the notion that a vaccinated public is the best way to prevent their spread.
Influenza, commonly know as the flu is especially dangerous to the young and elderly, and proves itself a venerable health risk every winter. Everyone, aged six months and up, can receive a flu shot.
The Pneumonia vaccine is recommended for adults aged 65 and older, but also for those 19 and older who smoke, or have heart or lung complications, such as asthma.
The Tdap vaccine, which guards against tetanus and diphtheria as well as pertussis should be administered to everyone, 11 years or older, at least once in their lifetime. Infants are the most vulnerable to the illnesses listed, and infection can cause hospitalization or even death. Anyone who is in close contact with an infant should receive a Tdap vaccine, however, pregnant women must be at least 20 weeks into their pregnancy to receive a Tdap shot. It should be noted that all students entering the seventh grade are required to have received the vaccine prior to enrollment. Those who participate in the clinic will have met this requirement.
There is no payment required for any of the vaccinations, nor is any insurance necessary. However, those with a health care provider should bring their insurance card.
More information is available online at www.health.ri.gov/immunization. The Dept. of Health can be reached at 401-222-5960/RI Relay 711

The 2011 NFL Schedule was released today, and our Panthers were lucky enough to draw the toughest docket for the 2011 season thanks in large part to our horrible 2-14 2010 campaign.

We play the AFC South and NFC North in addition to our division, and our other two NFC opponents are the Redskins and Cardinals, who both finished last in their divisions in 2010.
Let's take a look at the complete schedule after the jump...
Week 1 - Carolina @ Arizona
Week 2 - Carolina vs. Green Bay
Week 3 - Carolina vs. Jacksonville
Week 4 - Carolina @ Chicago

Kelly Rowland has already started her gig as one of the new judges on Fox's "The X Factor," which is currently filming its audition rounds, but don't expect her to dish out harsh criticism.
"I'm not a dream crusher," Kelly told Access Hollywood's Shaun Robinson.
Asked what she will tell someone if they can't sing, Kelly told Shaun that honesty is the best policy.

"You have to be honest," Kelly said. "If you're thinking you can sing and your momma said, 'Baby, maybe you shouldn't do this,' and you come up there anyway, momma knows best."
Kelly recently teamed up with Fantasia, serving as a special guest on Fantasia's new song "Without Me," off the "American Idol" alum's new album, "Side Effects of You."

And Fantasia explained to Shaun what the new cut is about.
"You may meet someone and you may feel like you [helped] them along the way. Then, much [further] down the line, you see that person again and they act like they don't even know you. And that, to you, is like, 'Oh, OK, I see. You [are] shining now, but where would you be without me? Got that,'" Fantasia said.

Source: Today's Zamann Prime Minister Tayyip Erdoğan has quietly led the gesture to the Orthodox, who face a shortage of candidates to succeed İstanbul-based Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew, 70, and serve on the Holy Synod, which administers patriarchate affairs. Turkish law requires the patriarch to be a citizen. But the Orthodox community in Turkey, an overwhelmingly Muslim country, has fallen to some 3,000 from 120,000 a half-century ago, drastically shrinking the pool of potential future patriarchs. "The specific call Erdoğan made to give citizenship to those who will take up an official position at the patriarchate came in response to the problems they have," İbrahim Kalın, Erdoğan's chief foreign-policy adviser, said in an interview. … [Read more...]
Turkey offers citizenship to Orthodox archbishops
Tampa Native Metropolitan Nikitas to become a Turkish citizen
The question that needs to be answered is why are the Metropolitans of the GOA being asked to apply for Turkish citizenship? This is relevant given that the Greek government interferes in GOA affairs and that the GOA represents Greek government interests in USA. Turkish citizenship would extend that loyalty to Turkey and the GOA will end up representing Turkish interests alongside those of Greece. Theodore Kalmoukos, author of the article asked Met. Nikita that question in different words: When asked what he would do if the Turkish ambassador in Washington, DC requested him to come down on March 25th and demonstrate against Greece, he replied that "I'll tell him that I have other duties to attend to, and that I teach at the university and cannot make it." In response to the question of whether taking on Turkish citizenship creates any problems with his conscience, Metropolitan Nikitas answered that "on the one hand, yes; but then again, doesn't the Patriarch have the same … [Read more...]

SEO concerns / problems
I'm feeling really frustrated with Buddypress atm. There are some issues with BP that mean out of the box, it will cause problems with the search engines.
Example: We've just enabled groups, which members were thrilled with. But every single topic in a group forum has the same title. My developer says that topic title isn't available anywhere when it generates the title tag, so we cannot even manually fix it, or so it seems right now.
We are likely going to end up with hundreds of thousands of threads and with all of them having duplicate titles, this is a problem.
At this point, I don't know whether to quickly turn off groups and apologise to our members or hope that this is something that can be addressed.
Is this something that can even be fixed without editing core code? Or is it something BuddyPress developers will need to address?
I really hope we don't have to turn groups off.

The discussion concerning the acquisition of defender Matt Lashoff on Friday got me thinking. We, as a community, tend to throw around the word "prospect" quite often. But should we? How exactly should we define the term? I've heard players such as Lashoff, Hanson, Mueller, and others called prospects. But it seems like they would be more correctly referred to as "projects". Mueller is an undrafted twenty-two year old left winger whose highest level of play is the German Ice Hockey League. At this stage, I have a hard time describing him as a prospect. Considering his level of play, lack of previous interest from North America, and age, shouldn't he be thought of as a project? What can we really expect from a player who tied for 13th in scoring in perhaps the fourth best league in Europe? And what about Christian Hanson? How do we classify him? He's twenty-four, was an undrafted player out of the NCAA, and his role with the organization is ambiguous at best. Where exactly does he fit?
Here's my question for all of you: Should we differentiate between a "prospect" and a "project"? Is there a point that a player should no longer be considered a prospect, but not yet capped out his potential? Would you consider Christian Hanson or Matt Lashoff, twenty-somethings with AHL/NHL experience but yet to clearly define their niche in the sport, still prospects? I would not. But let's hear what you have to say and why.

Saban not looking past underrated Commodores
In Alabama's last media availability before the homecoming game against Vanderbilt, head coach Nick Saban recognized the Commodores as an underrated opponent.
"They're a tougher team than people think," Saban said. "They're 3-1, they have a good offense, and they have one of the best turnover margins in the country. One of the reasons they are having so much success is because they have such a good turnover margin, and their secondary makes a lot of plays for them."
Offensively, the Commodores need to perform better than they did in their 21-3 loss to South Carolina in order to move the ball on the Crimson Tide defense. Quarterback Larry Smith had 44 yards through the air and only got 18 rushing yards from leading rusher Zac Stacy.
Moving the ball will be difficult for Vanderbilt because the Alabama defense only allows 1.8 yards per carry.
DT Josh Chapman featured on SI cover
For the third time in six months, Alabama has been featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated. Defensive tackle Josh Chapman was the cover athlete with "Ram! Jam! 'Bama!" as the headline. Saban jokingly recognized how unusual it is for defensive players to be in such prominent roles.
"I was wondering how that happened myself," Saban said. "Let me say this. He's probably happy that he was on the cover, but he's being harassed about it. Not just by players, but by certain coaches."
Linebacker Courtney Upshaw put the harassment aside for Chapman.
"I haven't seen it, but I heard on the radio this morning that he was on it," Upshaw said. "I'm happy for anyone on it. A defensive player on it – you know I'm happy."
Trent Richardson was on the cover for SI's college football preview issue, and SI featured former corner back Javier Arenas walking through the destruction of the April 27th tornado on the cover in the aftermath.
Focus on defense going to holding assignments
A big contributor to the three losses of the 2010 season was busted plays on defense. That has not been a problem thus far in the 2011 season, and Saban gave some details about what goes into that on Wednesday.
"When you look at it from a defensive perspective, I think a mental error means you have some part of the field undefended, a gap, and if they take advantage of that, they have a very good chance of having an explosive play," Saban said. "We sit down and we look at every play, and if I can't write down why that defense succeeded or failed, we've got bad defense, bad coaching, a lot of bad things going on."
Saban went on to say that the defense should work unless there is a missed assignment, a missed tackle, bad execution or other things of that nature, and it is those things that the Tide will work on throughout the season.

Absorbment Underwear to Help Bedwetting
When you lie down to sleep at night, you probably don't even think about the possibility of waking up cold and wet in the morning. Unfortunately, as many as 7 million children in the U.S. do.
Nocturnal enuresis, commonly known as bedwetting, occurs when a sleeping child cannot control his bladder during the night. There is no single cause for this involuntary urination, but researchers believe it one of the most common reasons may be underdeveloped bladders. The one thing everyone agrees on is that it is not a willful misbehavior by the child. "Every child would rather wake up dry than wet," says Renee Mercer, MSN, certified pediatric nurse practitioner at Enuresis Associates in Maryland. "They really try to stop wetting the bed, but it's not in their control."
Disposable Absorbent Underpants
One way to ease the discomfort for children suffering with this condition is through the use of disposable absorbent underpants. There are many products available today, ranging from Pull-ups® training pants for smaller children to Goodnites® absorbent underpants designed specifically for older children who are dealing with enuresis. Dr. Steven Docimo, head of the Urology Department at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, says these products are wonderful for children. "Waking up in a cold, wet bed has no conditioning effect," he says, noting that disposable underpants make for "one less chore for parents in the morning."
Experts from the National Kidney Foundation agree. "Using absorbent products at night to protect the bed will often reduce the frustration level of a parent and/or child waking to wet sheets." And although many parents believe using these products may prolong the bedwetting, Dr. Docimo reassures that "there is no evidence that it takes longer to grow out of bedwetting if a child wears absorbent pants."
Disposable undergarments also may help reduce the frustrations and stigma of bedwetting in older children. Many children who were previously nervous about attending sleepovers or overnight camps have found confidence using absorbent underwear. "When I wear [the disposable underwear] I don¹t have to worry about wetting my pajamas, the sheets or my friend's floor," explains one enuresis sufferer. "I'm not afraid to spend the night anymore."
There are some things to note when using these products, especially if a child is undergoing treatment for the condition. For example, Mercer often uses a wetness alarm to help the children in her care. This device uses a sensor that is placed in a child's underpants to detect wetness. When the child starts to urinate in his sleep, an alarm is sounded to wake the child and alert him of his need to use the bathroom.
Dr. Max Maizels, professor of urology at Northwestern University Medical School and author of "Getting to Dry: How to Help Your Child Overcome Bedwetting" (Harvard Common Press, 1999), offers a solution. "A child can wear the disposable pants over a pair of regular underwear," he says. "That way, the sensor will still react normally to the wetness, but the bed will stay dry."
Nocturnal enuresis is a common problem that takes time to be resolved. But the good news is that 15 percent of bedwetting children outgrow the condition every year. Using absorbent products such as Goodnites® absorbent underpants can help ease your child's discomfort and give him hope for a dry morning.

Chief Judge Now Says Cook County Courts Will Be Closed Wednesday Due to Blizzard
Posted Feb 1, 2011 2:26 PM CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
Updated: A blizzard that could dump as much as 2 feet of snow on the Chicago area initially wasn't going to close the county's courts.
A press release issued by Chief Judge Timothy Evans said he expected all Cook County courts to be open on Wednesday. However, as the storm progressed he apparently changed his mind: By early Wednesday, a notice on the circuit's website said the courts would be closed.
"Due to inclement weather, by an order of Chief Judge Timothy Evans, the Circuit Court and the Office of the Clerk of the Circuit Court will be closed on Wednesday, February 2nd," the notice states.
And as a subsequent ABAJournal.com post details, most Cook County courts will also be closed on Thursday, Feb. 3.
Meanwhile, the federal courthouse in Chicago also will be closed Wednesday, although documents may still be filed electronically, according to the court's website.
The Illinois Supreme Court and the Administrative Office of the Illinois Courts are also closed.
Last updated Feb. 2 to provide new information from Cook County Circuit Court website that courts will be closed tomorrow.

LeAnn Evans was in need of some extra cash. When she came across a website called Care.com, she thought she was in luck. It's a legitimate website for families looking for caregivers and people like LeAnn looking to provide that care.
"I thought, 'Oh, this is great, now I can have some extra money,'" said Evans.
Not long after she registered with Care.com she got a hit; someone was looking to hire her for child care.
"They said the child is in a wheelchair and they would send me a check for $2,700. I would keep $300 of it and send $2,400 to a wheelchair company," she said.
She showed us the emails detailing how the deal would work.
But excitement quickly turned into disappointment. Red flags started to go up.
The person offering the job was out of state and sent her a check before she even met them. There were also grammatical errors in the emails and the person would never contact her by phone.
"I went to a friend for advice to see what she thought, because my gut feeling told me this was wrong," Evans said.
Her suspicions were correct and confirmed when she took the check to the bank.
"I played it out to see what happened and FedEx came to my house and brought me this check. I took it to the bank and I asked them to verify to see if it was real. The routing number was correct, however, the account number was incorrect," she said.
Care.com is aware that scammers will sometimes slip through the cracks and misuse sites like theirs. The company has an "A" rating with the Better Business Bureau and even warns users about scams and offers helpful tips. The company encourages background checks and interviews. It says never to accept payment in advance or wire money to someone after receiving a check.
"It's not the company. I don't blame the company at all, because things like this do happen too frequently," Evans noted.
She contacted Care.com and the company says it removed the fraudulent contact.
"I am frustrated and I am also afraid that someone else may fall for a trick like this. They may not know any better and they will deposit the check in the account like the person wanted me to do," she said.
LeAnn hopes her story will keep people on their toes and is a reminder that just because a website is legitimate, it doesn't mean all the people using the site are. For more information, visit the sites below:

BLUEFIELD (WVVA) - As Sandy bears down on the Eastern United States with threats of blizzards, high wind and flooding, utility crews were mobilizing to prepare for the worst.
Following are news releases from both Appalachian Power and Dominion Power regarding their efforts to
CHARLESTON (NEWS RELEASE) – Appalachian Power started Friday making preparations for potential power outages that could occur Monday night into Tuesday from remnants of Hurricane Sandy.
More than 350 workers have been secured from AEP sister companies and will be moving into place on Monday. The workers will assist locally-based Appalachian Power employees should the storm cause widespread damage to electrical facilities.
Based on Sunday's forecast, the most serious threat to Appalachian Power is heavy wet snow in the high mountain areas, including the coalfield counties of southern West Virginia and far southwest Virginia. In addition, strong wind gusts could be problematic for many areas within Appalachian's service area.
"This weather combination will likely cause a major power outage event for us and we are preparing by staging crews in various areas in West Virginia and Virginia. At the same time, we encourage customers to have a plan in place for coping with extended, storm-related power outages," said Phil Wright, vice president Distribution Operations.
Customers should prepare an emergency kit with flashlights and fresh batteries; battery-powered radios or televisions; candles, matches, or lighters; water for drinking and cooking; portable heater (oil or gas); camping equipment (sleeping bags, camp stoves, lanterns); canned goods and a manual can opener and manufacturers' instructions for power-operated equipment such as the garage door. Customers should charge cell phones and have a mobile charger for their automobiles. More information can be found on AppalachianPower.com in the section "Outages & Problems."
Appalachian Power provides electricity to 1 million customers in Virginia, West Virginia and Tennessee (as AEP Appalachian Power). It is a unit of American Electric Power (NYSE: AEP), one of the largest electric utilities in the United States, with more than 5 million customers in 11 states. AEP ranks among the nation's largest generators of electricity, owning nearly 38,000 megawatts of generating capacity in the U.S. AEP also owns the nation's largest electricity transmission system, a nearly 39,000-mile network that includes more 765 kilovolt extra-high voltage transmission lines than all other U.S. transmission systems combined.
RICHMOND, Va. (NEWS RELEASE) – As Hurricane Sandy approaches, Dominion Virginia Power and Dominion North Carolina Power are preparing for potentially widespread power outages from the powerful, slow-moving storm, and urging customers to do the same.
"This storm system will build in intensity over time and will remain a force for days, not just hours, causing major damage and extensive power outages," said Rodney Blevins, vice president-Distribution Operations. "Its effects will be felt for days along much of the East Coast." The company's linemen and contractor tree trimmers will be supplemented by additional utility workers from other states.
"When customers lose their electric service during a major storm, their primary question is when their electricity will be restored," Blevins said. "They expect our bucket trucks and line crews to be in the field as soon as the storm ends, or sooner, but strong winds may make working conditions too risky to proceed while the storm lingers.
"The safety of everyone is paramount. This means it may take longer to respond to some outages," Blevins said. Dominion meteorologist Jeff Mock explains the unique characteristics of Hurricane Sandy and why this storm may be severe and long lasting in this online video: http://youtu.be/gJTjv09Tycs.
Restoration work continues around the clock until service is restored for all customers affected by the storm. Most crews work from sunup to sundown to restore service. Some work will continue during the night if it is safe. Overnight, other employees plan and organize the next day's jobs so repairs are completed in the most efficient and effective way possible.
The company reminds its customers to call toll free 1-866-DOM-HELP (1-866-366-4357) in the event of outages or downed lines. Customers may also report an outage through the company's mobile website at www.dom.com by typing in the phone number or account number on record with the company and the last four digits of their Social Security number, PIN or federal tax ID number.
Dominion (NYSE: D) is one of the nation's largest producers and transporters of energy, with a portfolio of approximately 27,400 megawatts of generation. Dominion operates the nation's largest natural gas storage system and serves retail energy customers in 15 states. For more information about Dominion, visit the company's website at www.dom.com.

The geostrategic vulnerability of South Asia is far from being defined. With the mess in Afghanistan yet to be sorted out, peace and development are largely in a state of limbo. The uncertainty that looms large with the proposed departure of United States forces from the war-weary country has kept policy-makers on tenterhooks.
The point is: despite the stationing of coalition forces for more than a decade peace is far from being attained. Moreover, whatever inroads the Western conglomerate had made in rebuilding the country now seems to be fading away with the rise of Pakhtoon militia, which has tilted the power balance, back in favour of conservative elements. Thus what is lacking at the moment is not only peace but the decorum on the political and administrative level to keep Afghanistan free from incursions from a host of thug elements that has filled the void to further their vested designs when the Soviets decamped almost two decades ago. Will the Americans too leave the rugged mountains of Southwest Asia as their erstwhile adversaries did is a question that sends shivers down the spine for neighbours, especially Pakistan, Iran and Central Asian Republics. The rise in the trends of militarism and the weakening of grip over extra-territorial elements on behalf of respective governments is an issue that is quite worrisome.
Afghanistan has had its share of chaos and crisis. Now is the time for some confidence building measures, and that too from the stakeholders who are supposed to be with it in the larger scheme of things. Offshore characters such as Washington and Brussels could well limit their role to nation-building tasks, leaving the grassroots managerial affairs to elements that share the same geography, culture and history. A new dimension of interaction is indispensable.

Shaped By War is the largest exhibition ever of the life and work of Don McCullin, arguably one of the greatest photojournalists of the post-war era.
Born in
While McCullin would go on to work in war-torn hotspots such as
The exhibition's centrepiece is his work from the thirteen days he spent with US marines in the ancient city of
Throughout the exhibition there is an awkward contradiction at play. On the one hand McCullin says he wants "to become the voices of the people in these pictures". His work certainly displays a clear interest in the civilian victims of warfare. This is a noble mission of course, but a display of the American military kit McCullin wore in
In later life, McCullin's fame began to impede his ability to get close to the action, his attempts to document the Afghan War and the Falklands War ending in failure. After the leaving the Sunday Times magazine and fighting depression, war fatigue and a turbulent personal life, in the 90s he turned to landscape and portrait photography. "My landscapes have become a form of meditation. They've actually healed a lot of my pain, my guilt, from the things I've seen", he says in the accompanying text.
In telling the story of such an extraordinary life intimately involved in many of the conflicts of the late twentieth century, Shaped By War proves itself to be a fascinating and important exhibition. Visitors of all political persuasions will likely leave with a huge amount of respect for McCullin and other war photojournalists who risk their lives to record the horrors of modern warfare. The elderly World War One veteran Harry Patch, who McCullin photographed just before he died, had his own, well-informed take on the issue: "War is organised murder, and nothing else".

For The Love is a wonderful album containing ten songs and a bonus version of "Find Out Who Your Friends Are" (with Tim McGraw and Kenny Chesney). It was produced by Tracy Lawrence, Julian King, and Flip Anderson. There's not a bad song in the bunch. Tracy's voice is in fine form on this album.
"Just Like Her" is a slow song, perfectly suited for playing at the honky tonks and bars. The man goes through all the emotions when it comes to his ex. He compares his love/hate feelings towards smokey bars and cigarettes with how he feels about her. "She's the best, she's the worst. She's the best I've ever had." On the opposite side of the honky-tonkin' spectrum is "Just Like That." It's upbeat, fun, and instantly makes you want to move around when it starts playing. A guy and his buddies head out to the bar to try to find a little love and a little luck.
"You Can't Hide Redneck" follows the lives of different people who might have moved onto "bigger things," but sooner or later their redneck side came back out to the forefront. "You might as well forget it, it's gonna find its way out," Tracy sings. "We're gonna blow our cover. You can't keep us from being loud, so you might as well be proud."
Brad Arnold joins Tracy on "For The Love," a song about people who do things because they love and want to, not because they'll become rich or famous. People will criticize others and try to cut them down but you have to keep on going. Try not to let words affect you because most of the time people don't even know what they are talking about.
I love Tracy Lawrence's voice and when he sings slow songs you really hear how he puts his heart into the lyrics. "Til I Was A Daddy Too" is about a man who didn't know "How deep a father's love could run" until he had a son. Once you become a parent you experience all the joys of living life for your children instead of for yourself.
The album's closer is a different version of "Find Out Who Your Friends Are." This time it features Tim McGraw and Kenny Chesney along with Tracy. Not only can you count on good friends when you need them, but you can always count on Tracy Lawrence to deliver great albums. I haven't yet come across a boring or bland album by the artist and I doubt I ever will.
Song List:
- Find out Who Your Friends Are
- Just Like Her
- You Can't Hide Redneck
- For the Love
- As Easy as Our Blessings
- Speed of Flight
- Rock and a Soft Place
- Til I Was a Daddy Too
- You're Why God Made Me
- Just Like That
- Find out Who Your Friends Are

Pontiac, Michigan
Timothy Bradley TD-10 Devon Alexander - Our full write-up of the bout is here.
Vernon Paris UD-8 Emmanuel Augustus - Augustus, long the drunken master journeyman of the sport, and a man who was a much better fighter than his record indicates, retired after the fight. He finished up his career at 38-34-6, having been involved in a few fight of the year candidates and having given Floyd Mayweather Jr. one of the toughest nights of his career. In what might be the only appropriate way for Augustus to go, this one was reportedly a close and bizarre fight where Augustus did much better than the actual scorecards reflected.
Allen Conyers UD-10 James de la Rosa - Hard hitting Conyers knocked down previously undefeated prospect de la Rosa three times en route to a decision victory.
Also winning on the card: Kendall Holt, Julio Diaz, Marcos Oliveira and Bermaine Stiverne.
Tokyo, Japan
Akifumi Shimoda UD-12 Ryol Li Lee - Lee lost his super bantamweight title in his first defense, getting knocked down three times by Shimoda. We'll see if this might set up a unification bout with fellow Japanese titleholder Toshiaki Nishioka.
Takashi Uchiyama TKO-8 Takashi Miura - Uchiyama reportedly dominated in this one, retaining his 130 pound title. After the 8th round, the referee stopped the fight due to cuts on Miura that were caused by punches.
Temecula, California
Cris Arreola TKO-1 Joey Abell - No big surprise, but Arreola came out aggressive from the start and laid into Abell, who couldn't keep up. The stoppage was a hair early, but a good call, as Abell was fairly defenseless at that point.
Josesito Lopez KO-7 Mike Dallas Jr. - Lopez has been on a roll lately, this time defeating undefeated prospect Dallas who just looked tentative and confused in there.
Jalisco, Mexico
Victor Terrazas SD-12 Nehomar Cermeno - Reportedly a very close fight, Terrazas was able to carry a split decision win on the basis of slightly harder punching, and more than likely, an influential hometown crowd. Terrazas is now the mandatory for the title that was won the next day by Akifumi Shimoda. We'll have to see what happens to Cermeno, but I wouldn't be surprised if he fades into obscurity. He has very little name recognition and is just too good of a fighter for anyone to risk taking him on if he's not in the title mix.
Jean Piero Perez UD-12 Jesus Jimenez - Perez wins an interim flyweight title.
Sinaloa, Mexico
Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. UD-10 Billy Lyell - Once again, Lyell put in a spirited performance, but just didn't have the power or talent and was largely dominated by Chavez. For large chunks of the fight, Chavez basically looked listless, and trainer Freddie Roach reportedly isn't too thrilled with his performance. While you never know with Top Rank's matchmakers, it seems fairly likely that Chavez will be fighting for a middleweight title against Sebastian Zbik sometime later this year.
Gauteng, South Africa
Nkosinathi Joyi NC-3 Katsunari Takayama - An accidental clash of heads led to a cut over Takayama's eye, leading to the no contest. Reports are indicating that this one looked more like a bail out than anything - Joyi was winning handily, Takayama got a cut, and he played up the damage to get out of the fight early.
Argenis Mendez UD-12 Cassius Baloyi - Mendez is now a mandatory to face Mzonke Fana. Mendez scored a first round knockdown and was able to outquick and outwork Baloyi over the course of 12 rounds to take a 117-110 decision across the board.
London, England
Travis Dickinson wins Prizefighter - It was a weak field in the latest edition of light heavyweight Prizefighter, but it was still largely entertaining as the men in the ring put in their all. Travis's brother, Jon Lewis, was also a Prizefighter winner in an earlier tournament. Tournament favorite Tony Dodson was cut over the eye in his semi-final match and was not able to move into the finals. Instead, Dickinson beat Sam Couzens in a surprisingly decent final to claim the top prize.
Verona, New York
Franklin Lawrence TKO-10 Jason Estrada - 35-year old Lawrence, a Don King fighter, became the first man to knock out former U.S. Olympian Estrada. At this point, Lawrence might be considered a fringe contender. His previous fight he knocked out Lance Whitaker, and before that he lost a disputed decision to Oliver McCall. He also has a draw against Friday Ahunanya and win over Nicolai Firtha on his record, so he's not a complete pushover in any case. Isaac Rodrigues was also upset on the undercard, losing his second in a row.
Also scoring wins this weekend: Sonny Bill Williams, Alex Leapai, Jamie Pittman, Omar Soto, Saul Roman, Rey Bautista, Jason Pagara, Edrin Dapudong, Pongsaklek Wonjongkam (non-title, stay busy fight), Shawn Estrada, Raul Hirales Jr., Gary Russell Jr., Bastie Samir, Luis Ortiz, David Diaz and Ronson Frank.
