By Heart Lyrics
Her face reflects as much of me as any mirror can
And my image in her eyes is all I know of who I am
But even as I see myself the lines begin to blur
For who I am has long been tied and tangled up in her.
And it isn't luck or chance she can read me at a glance
Not just because she's clever and she's smart
No, it's just by now she knows my heart
By heart.
It seems like it's been centuries since she and I began
And both of us took all our chances on a single hand
Though we took it day to day it's gone from year to year
And no one ever close to me was ever half as near.
And it isn't any trick or because her mind is quick
She reaches my conclusions as I start
No, it's just by now she knows my heart
By heart.
And amazing as it seems she brings magic to my dreams
Not just because she's mastered magic's art
No, it's just by now she knows my heart
By heart.
She knows my heart...
Lyrics taken from http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/c/conway_twitty/by_heart.html

Former Maltese Eurovision artists; Ira Losco and Gianluca Bezzina were approached by the Maltese national broadcaster PBS to host next month's Maltese national selection, which will take place at the Malta Fairs & Convention Centre in Ta' Qali.
Paula Seling and Ovi who are in contention to represent Romania for the second time released their entry for the Romanian selection, Miracle. Twelve acts will make it to the final of the national selection which is scheduled for 1st March.
The traditional Portuguese selection show Festival da Canção is back, but it has been slightly revamped. There won't be jurors, the audience will be solely responsible for choosing the winner, and it will run over two evenings on the 8th and the 15th of March.
A new Eurovizijos show was held last evening in Lithuania where one more act was eliminated and eight out of the nine participants moved forward to the next stage of the selection process. Furthermore, the Lithuanian broadcaster LRT has released the sixteen potential Eurovision entries.
Following an internal Eurovision committee meeting this week IBA has announced that they have chosen former "Kokhav Nolad" artist Mei Fineberg to represent them at the 59th Eurovision in May. The song she is to sing will be chosen internally from three options and be unveiled soon.
TVR has announced its plans regarding the selection of the Romanian representative for the 2014 Eurovision Song Contest. Twelve acts will be picked by an internal jury from all the submitted songs to perform at the televised show which will be held on the 1st of March.
Lithuania continues the searching of their next Eurovision representative with a new Eurovizijos show that took place this weekend. A total of ten candidates competed to be among the nine acts which would proceed to the next phase of the national selection process.
The first show of the 52nd Festivali i Këngës took place tonight at Tirana's Pallati i Konverteve. Sixteen acts are in the run to win this prestigous Albanian festival and thus representing Albania in the 2014 Eurovision Song Contest.
The 2014 season has started and the first entry is now known. 20 songs were competing in the national final in Ukraine, which resulted in Maria Yaremchuk winning the right to represent her country at the Eurovision Song Contest in May next year.
Last years favourite among the voting audience Yohio will be first out when Sweden starts its selecition procedure to the Eurovision Song Contest on the 1st of February. The 32nd and last performer in the fourth heat will be another hot favourite and audience pleaser - Anton Ewald.

Boys' singles shuttler Tan Jia Wei lost to South Korea's Lee Jun-su 21-11, 16-21, 16-21 in the fifth-sixth placing match of the World Junior Championships mixed team event.
ALOR SETAR: Head coach Zhou Kejian preferred to look at the positive side of things following Malaysia's 3-0 defeat by South Korea in the fifth-sixth placing match of the World Junior Championships mixed team event.
Malaysia fielded the young mixed doubles pair of Sim Guo Zheng-Eng Pui Yee as well as fourth string boys' singles Tan Jia Wei on Friday at the Sultan Abdul Halim Stadium, with the latter earning praise for his brave performance.
The 16-year-old Jia Wei showed glimpses of his prowess as he went down fighting to Lee Jun-su 21-11, 16-21, 16-21 in 47 minutes.
"Today, we sent out our third and fourth string players. I think Jia Wei did very well. He showed spirit and determination to fight all the way," said Kejian.
"I think nerves got the better of him today, especially when he was tied at 16-16 in the third game. His opponent was able to speed up the tempo and attack more. But he's got a lot of potential to develop into a stronger player."
Young pair Guo Zheng-Pui Yee were no match for Kim Jae-hwan-Kong Hee-yong, losing 7-21, 13-21 while Chua Khek Wei-Ng Di Hua were beaten by Park Kyung-hoon-Choi Jong-woo 21-17, 14-21, 14-21.
Asked to sum up Malaysia's performance at the mixed team event, Kejian said they ticked all the boxes of their performance sheet.
"I think overall, we did all right. Our target was to reach the quarter-finals ... and we did that. We wanted to beat Taiwan, especially after losing to them at the Asian Juniors, and we did that. So, we did achieve what we set out to do," said Kejian.
"I'm quite satisfied, despite the loss today, but the match (against South Korea) was to gauge where we stand compared to other teams and I think our juniors showed they have the potential ... they're just lacking in experience."

Preseason Game 2
Saturday, August 16th 2014
Cowboys Vs Ravens
6:00 pm CDT
Live Stream: Cowboys vs Ravens (Preseason Live)
The Dallas Cowboys host the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday and hope to put the torturous memories of San Diego behind them. Coming off an embarrassing effort in week 1 of the preseason, the Cowboy's defense put together their best week of practice.
Players returned from injury and playmakers started to shine. Can they show fans they have improved over last season or is 2014 destined to be a repeat?
The defense is starving for playmakers so all eyes will be on defensive line rotation. Defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli wants to rotate heavily this season and will need to find out who fits where. The distance between starters and casualties has never been more narrow.
Tony Romo Returns
The talk of town is the return of Tony Romo. Coming off repeat back surgery Tony Romo is finally ready to get back into action on Saturday. While not expected to play more than a quarter, Romo is eager to find a rhythm in actual game play.
Watch to see if Romo tries the deep ball. He struggled throwing deep early in training camp and only recently found his touch. It will be interesting to see if the opportunity arises and how Romo performs if it does.

Viera, FL - The Daytona Cubs came from behind twice in a 6-3 victory over the Brevard County Manatees on Friday at Space Coast Stadium, securing their fifth win in their last six games.
1B Dan Vogelbach, who went 4-for-4 on Thursday with a home run, started the game 3-for-3 with a walk and the game-winning RBI single in the seventh inning that put Daytona on-top for good. Vogelbach, who raised his batting average from .159 to .236 over his 7-for-7 stretch, flied out to the warning track in right-center in his final plate appearance.
Cubs catcher Chadd Krist went 2-for-5 with a double, a run, and the game-tying single in the fourth that knotted the game at 2-2.
RHP Felix Pena had allowed only a single run in each of his first four starts of the season, but struggled with his command out of the gate. Pena walked three in the first inning, but only one came around to score, which came via a passed ball. Pena was removed from the game due to apparent discomfort after facing a batter in the fourth inning.
RHP Starling Peralta (W, 1-0) was called on for Pena, and tossed four innings. Peralta allowed a run in the fifth inning on back-to-back doubles to start the frame, but only allowed the lone run on three hits with two walks and three strikeouts.
RHP Zach Cates (S, 1) closed the game with two perfect innings.
SS Marco Hernandez went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored, and also extended his hitting streak to seven-straight games.
RF Bijan Rademacher, who had Thursday off, needed a hit in the ninth inning to extend his hitting streak to nine games in-a-row, and delivered a huge insurance run with a solo home run to right on a two-strike pitch.
With 12 more hits on Friday, the Cubs upped their team batting average to .264 to leapfrog Charlotte for fourth in the FSL in hitting.
The Cubs and Manatees will shift the series back to Daytona Beach for two on Saturday and Sunday. The Cubs will send RHP Jose Rosario (1-2, 5.19) to the hill, and the Manatees are scheduled to start RHP Damien Magnifico (1-1, 3.93). First pitch on Saturday is slated for 7:05 p.m. with postgame fireworks to follow.

I used This Week's Card Sketch from My Favorite Things to create a Wedding Card.
I also combined the colors from the October Color Palette Challenge, which I thought were perfect for an Autumn Design.

I wanted to create a card for the My Favorite Things Stamp & Win Sketch Challenge (as I ask myself why I have none of their stamps that will work well in a circle).
I needed a masculine birthday card, so I skipped over to the SplitCoast Stampers Inspiration Challenge in search of well ... inspiration ... and I found this guy ... Berhnard by Asbjorn Lonvig.
And this card was born (also using the colors from the Colour Me Striking! Challenge) because what says happy birthday better than a Sock Monkey.
Birthday sentiment is from one of my favorite stamp sets, My Favorite Things Birthday Chalkboard Greetings.

We've got a beautiful picture ... and great sketch ... to inspire you at the Fusion Card Challenge.
For some reason, this one was more challenging to me than usual. I purged a lot of my flower collection when we moved, so was struggling to figure out a floral design. As I was rummaging through my supplies, I realized my Martha Stewart Layering Daisy Punch would create the perfect bloom, so that was my starting point.
I tried several colors for the circle background and settled on green to bring in the contrast of the leaves. I searched for a wood grain paper that would work, but none had the grayish tone I was goin for, so I ended-up using a gridded designer paper instead.
I pulled in the purple and grey from the inspiration photo, and finished with a MFT Get Well Wishes Sentiment ... hoping this daisy bouquet would cheer someone's spirit.

Once again my masculine birthday card stash is depleted, so I used this week's Sketch from My Favorite Things to make one.
I stamped Spotlight Sentiments several times in Nighshift Blue Hybrid ink (love how it stamps) and punched out my circle with a 2" circle punch. I also used the Die-namics Stitchable Dot Circle, but it didn't give much contrast with the words.
I finished with a vertical sentiment from Birthday ChalkBoard Greetings & some layered punched stars.
I'm also joining Less is More where they're challenge is to use words at the focal point of the design.

I love the look of white-on-kraft at the CASE Study Challenge.
I also wanted to join the Square Card Challenge at Impression Obsession, so I knew one of the Cover-A-Card stamps in my stash would be perfect. I chose Gradation (CC015), which I stamped in White ink on a piece of Kraft paper.
My first attempt at stamping my background didn't quite have full coverage, so I tried to over-stamp a second time and it got a bit messy. However, I thought the soft smudged ink would be a perfect place to stamp Live, Love Laugh Mailboxes in Dark Brown ink ... I love how it carries the pattern though the design.
Although the Mailbox image is rectangle, I trimmed it down to a square, so I could add a few die cut feathers (from a natural off-white paper), to bring in that element from the inspiration card. I used a white chalk pen to add some highlights to the image including the birdie and letter in the mailbox Ticket corner punches and brown frames, and the card was done.

I combined stamps from My Favorite Things Lana Lamb Designs At the Office, Technique Tuesday Big Thanks, and Mama Elephant Hustle for this fun congratuations card.
I stamped them all on a journaling card from Amy Tangerine's Plus One Collection. The finishing touch were some metal stars from Basic Grey.

When I was rummaging through my stash today, I found another graphic stamp set (My Favorite Things Trendy Triangles), so I decided to give my Stretch Your Stamps Class another try.
My dream was to do an Ombre Repeat Stamping like Kristina Werner, but I realized after stamping my first three rows, that I would be stamping well into tomorrow before I got an entire card done without a mis-stamp. So instead, I decided to combine her design with a modificaiton of Kelly Rasmussen's Border Stamping to cover my card front.
I stamped my ombre row two at a time, and then attached the four borders to cover the front of my card. You can clearly see that I struggle to get my stamping straight even with a ruler and lined blocks, but I still love the effect. I finished with an SRM Summer Sticker Sentiment which provides just the right contrast to the stamped background.
With my triangles I'm also joining the Geometric Challenge at Addicted to CAS, as well as the Ombre Challenge at A Blog Named Hero.

I just can't put away the fun Plus One papers from Amy Tangerine (featuring the gorgeous handwriting of Kal Barteski). This time I used them with My Favorite things Weekly Sketch Challenge.
I paired them with the brand new Spotlight Sentiment stamp from MFT (I ordered it the day of the new release last week, and already had it on Friday ... such great service). I also added another tiny clothes pin for the Paper Crafts & Scrapbooking August Gallery Challenge. I finished with a piece of deer flair from my stash.
I flipped the sketch 90 degrees to work with my elements.

Have you ever tried so hard to make your design fit into the guidelines of a challenge that you end-up ruining the card altogether?
On this card, I started with the Color Palette from My Favorite Things combined with a Sketch from Just Add Ink. I think about my card designs abstractly when I begin, but I seldom have the entire idea decided until the end.
I started by die cutting the MFT Die-Namics Blueprint 11 in both blue & white cardstock. I decided I liked the contrast of the white letters on the blue background rather than the blue-on-white, so I started there. Next I cut the orange circle which provided a nice contrast to my text. Then ... things started falling apart.
I tried several ways to incorporate the final color - Fuse Green (stamping sentiments, images, punches, etc.). Finally, I noticed the star on the table leftover from the Blueprint, and then the rest of the card came together. I pulled out some coordinating star punches, and I was able to layer on the colors.
As I was getting ready to photograph the card, I spied some coordinating embellishments that I placed over three of the punched dots ... and voila, it was done.
I had a great visit with my Mom & Step-Dad this weekend ... it was so fun to get to show them our new home and some of Iowa ... and to get a few pictures of Mom & Me.

We are looking for lodging and activity ideas for our family as we begin to swing down through Costa Rica and Panama from Nicaragua. Our kids are 9, 7, 5 and 2. We've been traveling for a couple months but haven't been moving around a lot. We spent a good chunk of time in Guanacaste and are ready to hit the road. We'll be arriving in Liberia via bus in mid-June and want to get to Arenal, Manuel Antonio, Tortuguero and then on to Panama - maybe Bocas del Toro, but definitely Panama City. We have a couple months to wind our way through and will have a car in Costa Rica.
Staying in houses or at least two bedroom places with a kitchenette saves us a ton of money and helps extend our trip!
We're hoping some people out there have traveled with larger groups and found some interesting places to stay and/or some good family activities to do. The kids haven't had a chance to snorkel yet, so that's definitely on the list.
All opinions and ideas are appreciated.

Our family just spend a couple of weeks in Panama.
Bocas was fantastic, also recommend Boquete and the Azuero Peninsula.
We did few tours and some activities by ourselves.
Activities my family enjoyed (specially the kids):
Sendero Panama tours: Their guides were fun, knowledgeable and knew how to guide for families and kids.
Wildside of Panama Canal
The embera tribe visit.
Bike ride in San Lorenzo Nat Park.
Nature walk on Boquete.
A day in a deserted island. (Pacific snorkeling and beach time)
Visit to Ngobe trive and chocolate making in Bocas del Toro.
Visit to Ngobe tribe for nature walk in Bocas del Toro(posion dart frogs and monkeys.
Snorkeling different reefs with natural history of reef, fish and creatures.
Boquete Tree trek: Mi family enjoyed this activity, specially the kids.
Zip line
Panama rafters:
River rafting
Hope you and your family enjoy Panama as much as we did.

Although a little pricey, Red Frog Beach resort in Bocas del Toro is great for large families. You can rent a whole luxurious house with a private pool. There's a very casual cafe there with ping pong and other games for kids. Turtle Beach was practically abandoned. We had a great time there with our young son. You can get there fairly easily taking the shuttle from Puerto Viejo.
Report Abuse
In Arenal you would probably enjoy the Proyecto Asis animal rescue center where you can get close to monkeys, sloth, macaws, and other animals and help feed them. The waterfall hike is great too if someone can carry the two year old. Nice natural hot springs in the area like Eco Termales. I don't know of many houses in the area, but Silencio del Campo and Los Lagos are very popular with young families. Check out Tulemar Bungalows in Manuel Antonio.
Report Abuse
I second tulemar bungalows, particularly villa mot mot which tends to rent for less and is fantastic. great beach for kids, kitchenette and great service.
Report Abuse
Thanks for all the help. Any one have thoughts on Puerto Viejo with kids?
Report Abuse
I recommend the Tulemar properties too! They have a private beach with boogie boards and kayaks for your use, tons of wildlife on site - monkeys, iguanas, birds, sloths etc. Check out www.4tulemar.com. I also recommend Red Frog Beach in Bocas it is absolutely gorgeous! There is also a restaurant on-site with kid-friendly food options, and chairs, umbrellas, and boogie boards for rent.

Puerto Viejo isn't as popular with families, but hipvirgochick takes her daughter there and they love it. Banana Azul is a popular place to stay. Maybe do a search for that and see what comes up if no one else chimes in.
Report Abuse
We just went to PV with our 4 year old this past February. We loved it. So many great beaches to explore. I'd recommend a car with kids. You can read my trip report on here. FYI Banana Azul is adults only.
Report Abuse
I wonder if that's new because I just read her review of staying there with her 10-year old daughter. I know they liked visiting the sloth rescue center when they were in the area.
Report Abuse
Interesting- maybe they made an exception. It states on the reservation page that it's for 16 yrs and older.
Report Abuse
mad, coincidentally I was on tripadvisor and colin stated that it was a new policy because they decided to cater more to adults and couples. People who have kids but had stayed there before were disappointed because they loved it. It's funny because someone just happened to ask the same question.
Report Abuse
Too bad they changed it before we could get there! It would've been my first choice, but I have to say I'm glad we stayed where we did, as the beaches were more suitable to young children.
Report Abuse
Yes too bad, but thanks for the updated information.

Shariah compliant insurance agency Cobalt Underwriting is partnering with AIG as both firms seek to further their global reach. The agreement highlights the growing importance of London as a hub for Islamic insurance, which will only increase with the planned creation of a London-based Islamic insurance body with global ambitions, industry practitioners told IFIS.
24 Oct 2014
Falah Capital, the only Islamic exchange traded fund (ETF) listed on the New York Stock Exchange, has outperformed broader US market indices in its first week weeks, the company's chief executive told IFIS. The dearth of passively managed Islamic funds in the US stands in stark contrast to growing appetite for such products, and Falah Capital's CEO is hoping to watch the fund grow in size several times by the end of the year.

Advanced Petrochemical Co starts investor meetings on Sunday ahead of its first sukuk, and has mandated HSBC Saudi Arabia and Riyad Capital to manage the transaction. But the deal is unlikely to be large enough to help bolster Saudi sukuk supply, which has dropped off sharply after strong issuance in the previous two years.
21 Oct 2014
An Indonesia insurance law taking effect this week will provide valuable clarity and guidelines on Islamic insurance. But the country's takaful sector – although holding huge untapped potential — is still hampered by an underdeveloped Islamic finance industry and the difficulty of convincing a moderate Muslim population to leave the conventional insurance sector, Fitch analysts told IFIS.

Islamic finance risks falling behind the conventional capital markets in its support of social development and the real economy including SME financing.

Deerfield Beach, FL (PRWEB) August 29, 2013
The Florida House Experience staff has seen an increase in the number of patients requiring detox treatments, and they realized they needed to expand the facility to better serve their patients. This expansion of the detox center will allow Florida House to provide more treatment options for addicts seeking treatment. While the detox center is located in a residential neighborhood, Florida House feels it is important to increase the area's awareness and acceptance of treatment centers and detox centers.
Ultimately, the Deerfield Beach City Commission allowed the increase because of concerns that prohibiting the rehab facility could be unconstitutional. Florida House Experience addressed neighbors' concerns by agreeing to add landscaping and a wall that will block views of the treatment center from homes east of Federal Highway. This will also ensure privacy, safety, and anonymity for patients and the facility. Florida House Experience also agreed not to build any more detox facilities in the area, and they will not build or buy a sober house on the east side of Federal Highway.
Florida House Detox is excited about this opportunity to be able to help more addicts who are seeking drug treatment to improve their lives. Addition is a nationwide epidemic that affects all of South Florida, not just Broward County.
The Florida House Detox is designed for the comfort of its patients. They understand that fear of the detox process keeps many addicts from seeking treatment, so they work to provide the most comfortable, complex detox possible. The Florida House Detox is a state-of-the-art, modern facility that pays attention to those little details that make a big difference. With 500 thread count sheets, high-quality meals, and flat screen TVs in each room, every aspect of the de

re: How Can I Make Readers Cry?posted 10/20/14
Dear Boo-Hoo…
A cathartic cry is a whole story in the making; no single plot event triggers it. Examine your entire story to be sure every plot point amps up emotional tension. Since plot serves character arcs in romances, events should pierce the characters' deepest fears and most passionate hopes repeatedly. Does Female Lead hope to vanquish Bad Guy by herself but fear that Male Lead wants to take over? Have her misread his offers to help as attempts to control. She fears being insignificant or thought incapable. Then let her reconsider, get hopeful about him, only to doubt again because she always returns to that fear. Each time she opens up, sock her in that fear so she scurries inside herself again. Keep the characters hopeful or determined enough to keep opening up until finally you don't sock them but let them have what they've earned. In this case, Female Lead will see that her guy wants to be a partner, not the power holder. Hopes and fears are universal, so readers relate to them. Emotion lurks in that link— attacking it is to attack readers, making them vulnerable and game for a good cry.
Happy writing!
The Editor
Laura C. wrote (on 10/20/14 at 7:30 pm) :
Great answer! I write thrillers not romance, but human elements and emotional fears are universal. Thanks!
Sue Ford wrote (on 10/24/14 at 2:44 pm) :
You know your characters more than what you are getting across to your readers, hence your tears, but not theirs.
Look at the books that make you cry and analyze what the writers did. I think I cry when I really care about a character and their situation is tear-worthy.
The Editor replied (on 10/24/14 at 2:57 pm) :
Thanks for that advice, Sue. Important to look for ways to make the readers care about your characters as much as you do.

The Elf on the Shelf Tradition
Last year was my first year doing the Elf on the shelf tradition with my daughter… and I LOVED it. I think I went a little crazy! Ha! Some of you love it and some of you can't stand it and I am proud to say I am a part of the former. In fact I shared three posts on it last year and they were shared thousands of times in just a few days! I couldn't believe it.
If you missed any of my other Elf on the Shelf idea posts, here they are:
I didn't, however get to share my final night of our visit from our elf, Josie. I'll share some others from last year soon as well. Josie left some cookies and Mia a little note that said:
Dear Mia,
Thank you for being a good girl this year. I hope your Christmas is full of cheer. I made you these cookies for you to enjoy. I'll report back to Santa to bring you a toy! Merry Christmas!
Love, Josie
This is her when she found it that morning.
To make the "cookies" all I did was wrapped a small piece of cardboard in foil to look like a cookie sheet. Then I placed four gingerbread man cake embellishments I found at Walmart (they come in a package of 12).
My daughter ate them that day. When we came back from the store later, Josie magically made another batch for her when we returned!

Place is a mess. Your equipment is dilapidated and grimy to say the least. Need at least 1 more person working there.
Misha Wolf did a fantastic Job! She seemed to be running the business all by herself. She really could use a hand. Make her a manager and give her a break.
You pay for the gas- obviously. So when they pulled it around, they just left it running. What? Stop.
When inspecting the vehicle, we pointed out huge damage points. The assistant actually said, "Oh, I didn't even notice that." Wha?
And while leaving, we noticed the tire pressure light on. When we confronted them, their response was, "We're aware. It's not an issue." Well that didn't make me feel safe, but thanks!
Granted, we were asking lots of questions because we didn't want to be nickle-and-dimed. Maybe we annoyed them, but I'm pretty sure their customer service skills are lacking regardless if someone asks a question or not. I wasn't impressed in the least.
But at the end of the day, I came to terms with the fact that it's not a company built on good customer service. They just rent trucks to people. Maybe I wasn't supposed to be impressed.
The cost was too much mileage if I'm renting the mileage should be included
Location was understaffed (1 person working the counter). I was not acknowledged when I arrived and it took 30 minutes for someone to spend 2 minutes to check in the Truck. It was not busy.
I had no issues picking up the Truck.
you need more staff. There was only one person there who could really do anything, and she was exhausted and overworked and there were way too many people in line. We asked for the van at 3pm, and the van itself may have been ready by then. However, the line and the paperwork took so long that we couldn't get the van out of there until after 4 which was much later than we needed it to be. It set our whole move way behind.
Also the van was in terrible shape externally. It looked like it had been through a war on the outside. At least the inside was in good condition.
It was too busy to only have one person behind the counter on a Saturday , the first weekend of the month when people are moving. The people working there were very helpful and efficient, they just needed more of them.
The Staff were extremely helpful! Great U-Haul Experience.
very good friendly service. I will come back again. Thank you for the excellent service and pleasant experience in using U-Haul..

Van wasn't dirty, but wasn't clean. Could use a wash and a good vacuum of interior. Make space for customers renting vehicles to park on-site. Parking off the lot is why I probably won't use you again.
I usually like this U-Haul location. It was really busy and understaffed on the Saturday I rented a truck. In addition, I had requested the truck for 4 hours but was told that I had to return the truck in 3 hours because it was rented to someone else at the end of 3 hours. When I got home, I looked at my confirmed reservation, which said, "Four hours of use requested, subject to availability." I think it needs to be clear when you make a reservation, the time you will get the truck for. Limiting my time to 3 hours had a definite impact on my move and my ability to get what I needed to do, done.
Rep forgot to load the dolly I rented into the van. Had to go back for it but not hugely inconvenient and she acknowledged mistake immediately. No hassles when I went to pick it up.
Need more employees. Having one person doing everything is rediculous. She does the check in and check out and delivery. Dumb!!
Customer service at this location is very poor. The general manager who assisted me with pick up and drop off was rude, condescending, short and inpatient with me and two other customers in front of me.
Misha wolf and staff were excellent from the word go. I called when I made my box reservation because I had never done this before. They walked me thru everything. Put me at ease. 3 weeks later when I got to seattle from Illinois it was the same excellent service. They were a little short staffed but they had a help wanted ad on the door. She busted her butt to help me and I did not overlook it. I also rented a uhaul that day also and she helped me with directions and all too save me time during rush hour. Scale of 1 to 10 I give her a 10. Outstanding customer service!!!!! Thank u all so much for your help.
Same as above.
This location was overwhelmed. Hire more staff.
I arrived at the p/u location at 8:55. Then had a 35 minute wait standing in line. There were 3 people ahead of me and three employees. Unfortunately, only one employee was working with customers. The other two were outside in parking lot.
Have more people able to use the computer and others to get the trucks, not the people behind the counter. Long lines and slow service.
Give pple more info on things they dont know/forgot because they are in a hurry instead of surprising them with the bill.
I think it's a poor representation on the company to not provide courtesy parking on the lot. Customers must drive their vehicle down the arterial and around the corner to a sketchy side street in order to park. Then we have to walk a block back to the lot. Major hassle and doesn't show appreciation to the customers. Staff seem casual and laggard, like that of a US post office employee. Vehicles are in good shape though; I can tell you take pride in them.

Twisted Lotus Yoga wants everyone to enjoy the restorative power of yoga, regardless of age, experience, or even mood. That's why they offer so many different variations on the practice: both heated and non-heated classes are offered, including vinyasa and gentler yin yoga classes. In heated classes, infrared heat set at 85- to 90-degrees helps rid the body of toxins as it boosts flexibility and blood circulation. But regardless of the room temperature, the atmosphere at Twisted Lotus Yoga is always warm and welcoming, so students of all levels leave feeling inspired and refreshed.
Director Patrick Hanratty chose to study under hot-yoga master Bikram Choudhury after becoming captivated by the technique. He has since taught yoga for seven years, and derives the most happiness from witnessing his clients finding themselves surprised by the Bikram style's visible benefits. Patrick welcomes students of all experience levels to Hot Yoga Massapequa, where he cultivates an encouraging setting in which classes run seven days a week. During each session, guests transition from one Bikram pose to the next, following a specific sequence that utilizes every major muscle group. While the heat draws out toxins through sweat, the technique's therapeutic element inspires patrons to let go of stress and chronic aches sustained from sleeping in a giant pretzel mold.
Members of Synergy Fitness Clubs thrive on choice. Choice of location? There are nine. Choice of activity? Instructors lead classes in almost any form of exercise imaginable, such as power sculpt, full-body circuits, and intense cycling. To make sure that members are making the choices that will help reach their fitness goals the fastest, the clubs are staffed with more than 100 lifestyle coaches. These pros are continually educated in their fields of specialty—which might mean nutrition counseling, yoga, or boxing.
A wide slate of equipment and amenities makes it as easy as possible to fit in workouts. Most locations are open 24 hours, and while parents lift free weights or dance a beautiful tango with a Precor elliptical, their kids can hang out in a free childcare room.
Ladies Workout Express helps women stay fit and have fun. Their secret, if you could call it that, lies in cutting-edge strength training and cardio equipment that maximizes the efficacy and excitement of each workout. The studio specializes in an interval circuit training program designed to increase lean muscle tissue, and personal trainers are available to help clients build confidence and work on their battle cry.
Prospect Sports lacks the elements every baseball player dreams of—the smell of freshly mowed grass beneath their cleats, half-eaten pretzels hurling over their heads, rows of seats that seem to never stop climbing into the sky. But that's because the facility intentionally eschews such romantic distractions in order to foster an ideal training environment, which in turn fosters better athletes. Amid a top-notch synthetic turf that plays like real grass and an adjustable netting system that snakes across 25,000 square feet of space, players hone their skills through performance training, video analysis, and private lessons that focus on specific aspects of sports including baseball and softball. The center also offers a "Build-a-Player" program, which integrates skill and performance training into one program to develop well-rounded athletes that can handle the pro leagues' 400-pound baseballs made of solid gold.
Nicole Tzen, Inner Balance's owner and a certified holistic practitioner, wants to do more than treat illness; she strives to empower clients to take control of their own health. That's why, in addition to offering integrative-healing services such as massage therapy, acupressure, and reiki healing, she hosts a range of yoga classes to bolster clients' fitness. This balance between mind, body, and spirit is also seen in the wellness center's Peaceful Minds program, in which licensed holistic practitioner Amy Mahoney provides free massage therapy, reiki healing, and yoga and meditation instruction for combat veterans.

One Week Left To Vote For Talladega-Texaco Walk of Fame! Voting Ends July 15
Officials for the Talladega-Texaco Walk of Fame are encouraging fans to act quickly, as only one week remains to submit votes for the 2009 Talladega-Texaco Walk of Fame.

The Talladega-Texaco Walk of Fame, located in the Davey Allison Memorial Park in downtown Talladega, is both a focal point saluting NASCAR's greatest names and a tribute to one of racing's brightest stars – the late Davey Allison.

In 2009, Talladega Superspeedway proudly celebrates forty years of the most competitive racing in NASCAR. While the track has seen changes made to the cars that circle its high-banks, the surface that they race on and the grandstands that thousands of fans fill twice a year, one constant remains; Talladega Superspeedway is authentic NASCAR racing at its finest.
Race fans should make plans now to experience HALLOW-DEGA¿ during the AMP Energy 500 weekend, Oct. 30 through Nov. 1.

Cameron Bairstow scored 21 points and grabbed 10 rebounds as No. 20 New Mexico advanced in the Mountain West tournament with a 93-77 win over Fresno State.
The Lobos have a late contest tomorrow as they will play the winner between Boise State and Nevada at 9:30 p.m.
Poor shooting by Fresno State (17-15, 9-9) allowed New Mexico to jump to a 14-4 lead to start the game.
New Mexico (25-6, 15-3) created success in the paint as big men Alex Kirk and Bairstow were not matched by anyone in a Fresno State jersey. The Lobos outrebounded Fresno 40-25 and had 14 second chance points.
Fresno State did force Bairstow to the bench with foul trouble, but still had no option against Kirk. He finished with 21 points and 6 boards.
Kendall Williams shot sluggish to start the game but left his teammates with opportunities to score. He turned around a 1-6 shooting effort to finish with 17 points and 9 assists.
Allen Huddleston came off the bench to lead Fresno State with 18 points.
The Bulldogs had four players score in double digits. The Lobos held Fresno's leading scorer Tyler Johnson to just 2 points off 1-7 shooting.
Fresno State shot just 39 percent from the field and allowed a 56 percent shooting effort by New Mexico.
Hugh Greenwood had 8 points and 8 rebounds, Deshawn Delaney scored 9 points to round out a fruitful night for New Mexico's starters.
At the other end of the bracket, No. 8 San Diego State will play UNLV for a spot in Saturday's championship game.

The bodies of seven Coptic Christian Egyptians were found in the eastern city of Benghazi, killed with shots to the head while handcuffed, a Libyan security official told the news agency AFP.
The spokesman of Benghazi's Joint Security Operation Room, Colonel Ibrahim al-Sharaa, said that the bodies were found yesterday in an area called Garoutha, 20 miles from the city centre.
The ages of the dead range between 17 and 25, he said.
Since the ousting of Muammar Gaddafi in 2011, the Government has relied on militias, many of them Islamic extremists, to preserve order.
Last month six Egyptians diplomats and embassy officials were abducted in retaliation for the arrest of a top Islamic militia commander in Egypt.
Last year, scores of Egyptian Christians were kidnapped in Benghazi and tortured, the news agency reported.

Is chess.com safe for teens?
It is safer than most internet sites. As a parent I would have no issues with my kids being here. (Ages 11, 12 and 14)
Yeap, I would say it is also safe. I have heard of questionable advertising, but if you buy them a membership all the ads go away.
Its as safe as any online community. Anything can still happen simply because its online but I doubt that this is on the list of sites a predator would go to look for teenagers.
I don't see why not. You aren't required to put your personal info in your profile, so as with any other site out there it's purely based on whether your teen is smart enough to use the internet safely. I couldn't say on ads... I haven't seen one in about 2 years thanks to Firefox and Adblock Plus.
I would say this is an exceptionally safe place for teenagers. It is made up of people who love chess. However, it is an internet site so there is anonymous personality aspect to it. I deal with a great deal of teenagers on my band site and what I tell them is this: If you're dealing with someone you don't know, do not get too personal with them. Common sense says don't give out personal contact information. Keep conversation about the subject at hand, in this case chess. Common sense is the safeguard when it comes to any internet site.
I wouldn't be so much worried about us teens, we have the odd braincell floating around to tell us whats dodge and whats not - but as for the 10's and unders I would monitor them fellas. Especially in places like live chess you don't know who you're gonna come across - the mods are excellent but can't be everywhere at once!
For online chess restrictions can be placed on kids profiles and stuff in the settings preventing just anyone posting to them and stuff - but I would consider online fine really. Just the live to watch out for.
I'm 17 and I've found this site to be extremely welcoming and friendly, especially all the elderly chess players asking me to come over to their house and play some weird version of chess called strip dancing with them. Kidding..all jokes aside, this site would earn a PG rating, if you can use the internet, this site is a safe place to go.
i am also seventeen, and this site has been really good from what I have seen.
if you have firefox you can actually block all ads on the internet (for the most part)
I agree with LOB, just watch the live chess. There are also the poor losers that swear at you and degrade you, i guess just put up with it?
I certaintly think so, being 15 myself, I've found some very friendly and fantastic players, though I have encountered some not so friendly but no site is without those.
I think it's 100% safe because I've had NO problems yet!
i'd rather see my kid on chess than
myspace, facebook, blogstuff...
I've found this site about as safe as any internet site can be. (Age 16)
I've had one "encounter" with an unsavory fellow who wanted to chat about inappropriate things...I would suggest not allowing him/her to post photos and not posting ANY personal information (as with any other on line site). Chess is a wonderful game for any age person to learn to THINK things through, among other life lessons too numerous to name. I would have NO problems allowing my children (of any age) access to this site. (I don't know about the ads-buy a membership and that won't be an issue!) I think there are quite a few of the under 20 set roaming the boards; they just allow the rest of us to save face by not advertising that fact!!
I'm more worried about chess.com being attacked by teen hackers.
I'm 14 and haven't had one negative experience on this site. Not that it can't happen; just I've never had to use the "stranger danger hide under a table quick" tactics that they broadcast to us in school.
I have Firefox...how do I block ads?
Is this really a tactic?
