To protect yourself and your savings, since the government's medicare plan only covers %80 and you are left with the %20, an insurance supplement is available to cover that gap. Medigap Insurance is an important investment. There are several companies that offer this Medigap Insurance.
Some of these policies can be expensive, others do not offer what you might need. A little research is always a good idea, and since after you sigh up, you will not be able to change, the Medigap Insurance you selected until the next open enrollment. AARP is one of the companies offering this type of insurance. Lets look at AARP.insurance
AARP is one of the companies that offer Medigap Insurance, and offers it through United Health Care Ins. Co. There are different plans to choose from, discounts, and wellness plans. AARP's plan is not age rated, has no deductible,and is almost the lowest priced plan offered. Depending upon the Medigap Insurance plan that suites your life style and needs, AARP's has a plan that costs nothing. That is to say that the charge the government imposes for part A and B insurance is all that you will pay. AARP Medigap Insurance has a Deluxe plan available for an additional fee.
AARP Medigap Insurance is easy to apply for. You can either call their toll free number and request their booklet, go to one of their informative meetings or call AARP's toll free number 1-800-547-5514 and ask for an agent to call on you to explain their plans. AARP's Medigap Insurance will help you out in time of need, and should be thought about in earnest. AARP's plan covers almost all of the gaps that might come up and should be considered A Good Choice.
This may not be the best place to ask this, but, I'm looking for a financial advisor that was my parents' retirement manager. I'm really frustrated over this at the moment because I trust my parents judgement, and want to use the same advisors I am having trouble locating them in any of the local directories online. Carlton Financial Group – 106 Mission Ct #701 Franklin, TN 37067 phone (615) 794-2536 Is there an industry association or directory that I can use to find this company?
hi I gust typed Carlton Financial Group in my google search bar and found all the information I would need
This is a topic that's near to my heart… Many thanks! Exactly where are your contact details though?
Thanks for sharing the graphic. I will take some time and try it out.

Welcome to the DOVE
Program at
New York Presbyterian
Hospital's Social Work Department
Dove can help
If you are a survivor of domestic violence
or rape, you are not alone. Survivors and their loved ones usually feel
emotionally upset long after the assault. The effects may include physical pain,
headaches, inability to focus, flashbacks, nightmares, guilt, anxiety, and
depression. Talking about the trauma is helpful, rather than hoping it will just
go away. Trained staff are available to listen and to help you sort out your
feelings and needs.

Carphone Warehouse blocks union website
Carphone Warehouse employees at the Irlam site were unable to get to their union website yesterday, as Carphoneworker.co.uk found itself on the list of unapproved sites for publishing information about forthcoming shift changes. Only workers at the Irlam site were denied access to the site - the rest of the company could easily …
And then there were the meetings...
... with our managers on the floor of another CPW call centre, point by point denying the statements made by the Union and reassuring us we are all valuable and delicate little flowers whose opinions are considered highly valued contributions ... but nothing in writing, naturally.
Mine's the one with the redrafted CV and a copy of the jobs paper in the pocket.
More carphone crap
Is anyone surprised by this, the company is a joke,
they have cut all employee benefits because of the recession,
i think its just an ongoing excuse to make more money with minimal spending.
El Reg blocked by PC World
I had some friends who used to work in the PCW call centre in Sheffield who told me that the Register was blocked because management were worried about what staff might read on here.
IT Dep't Emerges From Comma?
Or is it ":Misteaks were made?"
"inaccurate information"
The union is only allowed to publish information that the company has agreed is accurate?
The company can cut its workers off from their own union's site if that union says something the company doesn't like?
Now we know where Bush went after he left the presidency.
The company can block whatever websites it likes, from, *it's* company computers. Nothing new here, is there? I am surprised, more companies, don't block more of the web than they do, TBH!
Anyway, if I were thier employee, I'd probably not want them to know I was visiting sites such as that, and "mark my card" as one of them there "trouble makers"! ;) I'd do it from home....(presumably, along with surfing jobsites, and "CPW-are-crap forums" etc. ;) )
Spelling Mistake?
Possibly not a simple transposition error?
Craphone warehouse
Who cares?
Unions are anachronistic.
Don't believe me, Union Card holder? Take this simple test:
What do you drive? What does your Union Boss drive? What does Management drive?
@ Matthew Collier
The issue is not that the company is blocking websites, no one is complaining about that. The issue is that the ONE SINGLE website that was blocked was one set up by the Union to provide information and advise to CPW staff.
The company is in the middle of using made up information to introduce major changes to shifts. They are providing no information and they are going through a "Consultation Period" which involves them avoiding answering the questions asked and going through the motions. They are blocking all access to information and using very underhand tactics to try keep the staff in the dark.
A simple shift change really should have made it into The Register, but the way the management have treated the staff and the lies they are telling have caused this shit to happen.
@ Anon ^^ Its actually Carphone Whorehouse.

French Onion Meat Loaf
As a teacher and farm wife, I'm always looking for quick and easy menu ideas, especially during planting and harvesting seasons. I keep the ingredients on hand for this simple-to-prepare meat loaf. - Jan Peters, Chandler, Minnesota
8 Servings
Prep: 20 min. Bake: 1 hour + standing
3 eggs
1 can (10-1/2 ounces) condensed French onion soup, undiluted
1 package (6 ounces) crushed beef-flavored stuffing mix
2 pounds lean ground beef
In a large bowl, combine the eggs, soup and contents of stuffing
package; mix well. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well. Shape
into a loaf in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Bake, uncovered,
at 350° for 1 hour or until meat is no longer pink and a meat
thermometer reads 160°. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.
Yield: 8 servings.
If cooking for two, shape the meat mixture for the French Onion Meat Loaf into two-smaller loaves, instead of one large one. Bake for about 45 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 160°. Enjoy one loaf and freeze the other to reheat later.

About Amy Umble:
Amy Umble is health reporter for The Free Lance-Star
Red, right, returning?
The buoys that mark the waters we've travelled are invaluable aids. There are red ones and green ones, triangles and squares. They're useful because they signal good water, the kind that's deep enough to travel without running aground.
Dr. David Scott looks for buoys constantly, either in the water, on his paper chart or on his chart plotter, the large-screen GPS at his boat's helm. When he finds a buoy, he uses it to guide his way.
To me, however, buoys are confusing. There doesn't seem to be a consistent rule for them. I've spent a lot of time asking Scott, "Why is that buoy red?" or "Shouldn't that be a green one?"
On the highways, the rules are easy to understand. Red always means stop, and green always means go. But on the water, red can mean one thing in one place and just the opposite in another.
I confess that prior to this trip, I knew nothing about buoys or nautical navigation. But, and I hope I am not betraying a confidence here, Scott says that he too is sometimes confused.
For example, take the North River, which we traveled today. The North River connects Albemarle Sound and Currituck Sound on the northern coast of North Carolina. It is the recommended route for boats traveling north and south on the Intracoastal Waterway.
Based on my extensive experience at sea–a total of four days–I would have expected to see red buoys on our right as we headed north on the North River. I based that on the "red right returning" rule. That means that you put a red buoy on your right as you return from the sea. Except, of course, when you're on one body of water and another intersects it, or for some parts of the Intracoastal Waterway, or when you're on the North River. Then, the rule doesn't seem to apply.
Today, the green buoys were on our right as we traveled north on the North, through ever-narrower waters. "Shouldn't the red buoys be on our right?" I asked Scott. He said he couldn't explain it.
Nor could Galen Dunmire, a Maryland boater we met tonight at dinner in Coinjock. Dunmire and his wife, Becky, have traveled America's Great Loop, the 6,000 mile circuit of the eastern United States and Canada. I figured he could solve my buoy problem, so I asked him, "Why were the green buoys on our right as we came here today?"
Dunmire shook his head. "I don't know," he said.
So, if you ever see me on the Rappahannock or Potomac, and I appear confused, just wave as you pass by. I'll figure out these buoys eventually.
(A prior post about my travels with Scott, including a link to other posts, can be found here.)

Delilah theres something magnetic about Delilah, she is one of a kind all right! she is unique to most men, her physical being fills the void of every empty hearted man, she is like rivers of dead waters to those who seek her (compare psalm 1:1-2 / john 7:38) for she herself (her spirit man & soul) is empty, void and destructitive just like her father the devil , who is the father of lies (john 8:44)… Delilah's vision is written down plainly on tablets and she run's with it, her father the devil also assists her.
Indeed she satisfies a frustrated man like medicine, that such that a man when he is sick (needing fulfillment sexually or emotionally) ; he will keep going back to her to receive his share of fulfillment..
Delilah's can be discerned (i use discerned because without the spirit of discernment u wont spot her) almost anywhere, she can be found in the church choir with a voice that sounds most angelically anointed, you can even find Delilah at the business meeting looking very independent and elegant, she can be seen in the mall shopping, yes she can be found sitting in the congregation shouting Amen with a voice of conviction…
Delilah is very beautiful, independent and nurturing just like a mother and a best friend. Praise is her native tongue she will always praise a man. She is always understanding.. She is almost angelic & perfect to those who do not seek God's counsel or use discernment.
She has made so many great man of God fall because of her craftiness and deceits, her mission is from her father, which is to steal, kill and destroy. When a man is inclined to step out of the Vine (John 15:1-10) during his walk/race even for 5 minutes. That man is in great danger. Look at what happened to king David when he decided to stay home at a time when all kings go to war and walked around the roof of his palace only to later on see a "very beautiful" naked woman bathing (study 2 samuel 11)
Observation 1
In the book of Judges16:4 It says Samson loved her…
Delilah has something about her that makes a man fall for her easily without getting to know who she really is, a man risks being vulnerable for Delilah, vulnerable to her and to the enemy.. For it is only proper to first ask God's counsels when u give your heart to someone before u do, for the LORD GOD is all knowing and knows every heart, whether such and such a man/woman is right for u.
Observation 2
In Judges 16:5 The lords of the Philistines convince her to overpower Samson..
Because Delilah doesn't have the Holy Spirit for none of her ways are led by the Holy Spirit, she is easily persuaded by her father the devil to work for him and complete his destructive missions upon the mighty man of God who are making causing havoc in the Kingdom of darkness. The devil finds a convenient vessel who is willing to do the job for him. All he needs is willingness and obedience is all that's needed. Because Delilah relies on her looks she actually enjoys every minute of her tasks. Her lord (the devil) has highly trained her to use the abilities placed in man for her own advantages..the same abilities that started in Eden. The most important ones being that:-
- man are visual and delight in what they see.
- men respond to praise not criticism.
Sadly some woman may not realize they are being used by the devil thinking it is the Holy Spirit. But what-ever is not of faith is sin, This same faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God.
Therefore every woman should check themselves and see if their actions are according to God's Word. For no-one can say i was led by the Lord to be with her husband..for God hates divorce. Or no-one can say she made me fornicate, for every man/woman in Christ has the ability of self control but if they cant practice it they have a choice to say yes or no. There is just no excuse.
In Judges 16 verses 6-18
U see that Samson already knew that Delilah wanted to destroy him 3 times, but he was already her prisoner for he still remained with her. It was too late his soul was already tied to hers, Such a man would need God's deliverance and grace to break free from Delilah. Such a woman is not easy to forget or leave.
To the man who decides to be close to such a one, he has to be very discerning, Delilah comes with her praises, great abilities, beauty and angelic personality but her soul is vile and her spirit is evil.
Therefore watch and pray lest you fall into temptation.
(side note i used halle berry as the picture because i was looking for a picture of a beautiful black woman..no offence to her or anyone ) God bless

Olympic suffragettes regroup for women's rights march on parliament
London 2012 opening ceremony inspires performers to become modern-day activists and join UK Feminista in rights rally
When Gail Collins stepped out in front of the deafening 80,000-strong crowd watching the Olympics opening ceremony, wearing a high-neck Edwardian blouse and the purple, white and green sash that marked her out as one of Danny Boyle's 50 suffragettes, she couldn't hear the noise, just the beating of her heart. "It was one of the biggest days of my life," she said. "Getting married, having my children and being in the opening ceremony. I felt proud, really proud that we had got there."
In the months before the ceremony, the women forged a particular bond – with each other and the women they were representing. So when the experience ended, what did the Olympic suffragettes do? They kept marching.
Dozens of suffragette performers, led by Helen Pankhurst, great-granddaughter of Emmeline Pankhurst, plan to march on parliament, at the vanguard of a major feminist rally organised to urge MPs to stop "eroding erosion of women's rights" and make more progress on women's equality.
Some of the suffragettes had no experience of campaigning and some younger cast members knew little about the women they were representing, but many now want to use the experience as a springboard into modern-day activism, starting with UK Feminista's rally on 24 October. "Coming together was a gift and it would be such a wicked waste to not carry on and we can't let people down by not continuing," said 37-year-old Collins, a stay-at-home mother of two.
No longer under the guidance of Boyle – who included the suffragette section in the ceremony after becoming enthralled by the memorial plaque to Emily Davison, found on the back of the broom cupboard door where she once hid in the House of Commons – the group may treat observers to a scaled-down version of their performance. It may even include the critical moment, which to the annoyance of many wasn't featured in the TV coverage, when the women formed a human scaffolding to carry a Christ-like Davison above their heads.
Another suffragette, Lesley Covington, a 57-year-old who gave up her job as a designer 20 years ago to look after her children, had never thought of herself as a feminist activist. "I'm not sure I would even now," she said. "But why shouldn't we take this opportunity? Women are still under-represented in parliament and the upper echelons of business; childcare is a huge issue. I want to get involved and I want to make a difference. You can change things – you have to believe that, or you would never try."
The opening ceremony and the Olympics as a whole, which involved women from every nation participating for the first time, as well as huge success for female athletes, could inspire many more women to campaign for gender equality, said Pankhurst, an ambassador for the global anti-poverty charity Care International.
"When we see things like women's boxing it is important, because it starts to shift perception about what women should and shouldn't do. The Olympics is a real platform to make it more than just symbols and this rally is really building on that."
While Pankhurst said political struggle was "in her veins", other women in the group had become "interested in the issues as well as the fun", after keeping in touch via Facebook. "Modern technology is allowing us to organise as suffragettes much easier than they did in the past – it unlocks the potential," she said. "Until we are on an equal footing and [while] unnecessary problems remain there will continue to be a need to speak out."
The suffragettes – who hope to track down Edwardian costumes for the rally – will join a broad coalition of groups that includes the TUC deputy general secretary, Frances O'Grady, and the director of Liberty, Shami Chakrabarti, and organisations including the Fawcett Society, Southall Black Sisters and the anti-objectification group Object.
Many protesters are requesting meetings with their MPs, while others will remain outside parliament to highlight issues such as a lack of progress on tackling violence against women, and making more women visible in parliament and in business. Other demands include measures to tackle the objectification of women – also put to Lord Justice Leveson during his inquiry into the ethics of the media – childcare and the protection of Sure Start centres, justice for female asylum-seekers and the protection of women's reproductive rights.
"The time is right for this. There is anger, injustice and potential, and that all comes together in 2012," said Chakrabarti.
Britain is witnessing a resurgence of feminist activism as hard-won rights come under threat, said Kat Banyard, the founder of UK Feminista.
"Too often, issues relating to women's inequality are put to one side and seen as an add-on, but tackling this injustice is absolutely central to building a good society.
"People are sick of the attacks on women's rights and are fighting back. At the lobby, women and men from across the country will be making it clear to their MP that we can't go on like this, it's time to move forward."
For Collins, taking part in the opening ceremony has given her a voice, and she is determined to use it.
"It's not fashionable to say you are a feminist, but women need to stand up," she said. "I've always had these beliefs but this has pushed me to do something about it. It just feels like I'm not on my own."

My new British citizenship test: who is Cheggers, and why is he so funny?
Theresa May wants to put patriotism at the centre of British identity. Doesn't she know our national spirit is more about pasties, panto and Keith Chegwin?
What does it mean to be British? We're citizens of a weird and eclectic nation – and, by nation, I of course mean group of nations. Sorry, what am I saying?! It's more than that – it's a family. A happy family. No, marriage. An unhappy marriage. A failed marriage of nations that's only staying together for the sake of Wales. No, I don't mean that, I mean gangbang. An orgy of nations, all joyfully thrusting away in a sexy romp of cultural difference and mutual respect. I'm getting all this from the citizenship blurb.
There's so much to these islands: from London's glittering West End to Wales's renowned Eisteddfod to Edinburgh's international festival. From the Gaelic speakers of the Highlands to the Welsh speakers of the valleys to people in Essex who say "amazeballs", it's a wondrous and incoherent mixture. There are Irish Presbyterians, metropolitan atheists and Anglesey druids; football enthusiasts, real-ale nuts, vegans, homeopathists and the employees of the Wyvern theatre, Swindon who, according to their marketing manager Richard Loftus, are in a cult of their own: "At the Wyvern we're all huge fans of Keith Chegwin's voice," he announced last week.
So it's complicated. Just ask Theresa May. She's charged herself with the task of monkeying around with that test foreigners have to take if they want to become British. It's currently a bit too leftwing: you know, stuff about the Human Rights Act and how to claim benefits. She thinks it should be more patriotic and less practical. More about our "long and illustrious history" than the current test which focuses on dealing with the council and reading the gas meter.
It sounds like they want to attract people like me: I've got a degree in our long and illustrious history and I never read the gas meter. I don't reckon that's my job. I'll pay for the sodding gas but I don't see why I should prepare my own bill. I wouldn't go to a restaurant that refused to keep track of what I'd ordered. They're supposed to send people round to read the meter, aren't they? Isn't that crucial to the plot of porn films? And it creates jobs – for recent immigrants, perhaps, who've learned how to do it in their citizenship tests.
But not for much longer. Instead, from this autumn, they'll have to memorise the first verse of God Save the Queen, learn about some great Britons such as the Duke of Wellington, Isambard Kingdom Brunel and Emmeline Pankhurst and face questions about what the Guardian recently referred to as "British inventions such as the structure of DNA". What a patriotic newspaper! That's a variation on the intelligent design theory that's new to me.
There's a problem with all this: British history, unlike the workings of gas meters and the welfare system, is a matter of opinion not fact. There are some facts involved but what the government seems to be planning here is an upbeat, self-aggrandising story of Britishness, a fairytale with the coalition as the happy ending – a long, simplistic boast to the world, probably not actually containing any factual errors but certainly not, merely because of that, qualifying to be called "the truth". They want anyone joining the ranks of our citizenry to have dutifully swallowed all this, like a medicine whose efficacy is scientifically unsubstantiated.
The worst part of the process, and this is something which predates May's changes, is when aspirant citizens have to attend a bullshit ceremony at which they swear an oath of allegiance to the Queen and pledge loyalty to the UK and to democratic values. (The fact that such loyalties have on occasion been mutually exclusive, and will be again – when we next sign a trade agreement with Saudi Arabia, for example – is presumably not discussed.) I saw a picture of this happening online – a drab room full of people raising their right hands like Americans.
I hate the implication that, to be British, you're supposed to believe certain things. That it's a club with shared aims and values rather than a country which, as even its detractors might admit, has historically shown a better understanding than most that the semblance of consensus is usually a signifier of tyranny. If, in the very process by which we invite people to share in our ancient liberties, we've lost that understanding, then we've truly diminished as a civilisation.
Keith Chegwin must have had a similar sense of national decline when he tweeted last week: "How BBC Radio has changed. Sad." He was responding to Marie Lennon, a BBC Wiltshire reporter, who'd tweeted: "Keith Chegwin's voice makes me feel physically sick." His was a deft rejoinder. Despite Lennon having stated in her Twitter biography that all views expressed "are MINE", Chegwin was quick to pin the insult on her employer, the Daily Mail's nemesis. According to Chegwin, Lennon's tweet showed an overall decline in broadcasting standards, not just that one woman found his voice annoying. Or maybe she doesn't find it annoying? What she actually said was that it makes her feel physically sick. Perhaps it literally makes her ill? Would British Airways bemoan a sad decline in British baking if a Greggs branch manager blogged about nausea during take-off?
Because the BBC is involved, the retractions were soon flying, like champagne corks before radio changed. Lennon apologised "if anyone was offended by yesterday's tweet" (I think she could have made a reasonably accurate guess at who might have been) and a BBC spokesman made clear that her attitude "doesn't reflect the views of the station" because "BBC Wiltshire is looking forward to Keith Chegwin appearing in pantomime at the Wyvern theatre this Christmas." It really needs to get out more. But how lovely for the Wyvern's strange aficionados of the Chegwin timbre, all happily immune to its emetic qualities, that he'll be giving his Wishee Washee there.
As a test of Britishness, what could be better than having to understand what the hell those last two paragraphs are about? Never mind Emmeline Pankhurst and DNA, the true test of a Briton is whether or not he knows who Keith Chegwin is: a man with an even greater fame to credibility ratio than Prince Edward but unheard-of beyond these shores. Speaking as a comedian, I don't care whether new citizens understand human rights or the battle of Bosworth – I need them to get that, when talk turns to EasyJet, Ginsters slices or Keith Chegwin, someone is usually telling a joke.

Jeff Branscome writes about Spotsylvania County.
An Altercation
There was an altercation minutes ago between local Pizza Hut owner and major landowner Hugh Cosner and Tricord Company executive Mike Jones in the hallway of the Holbert Building here.
Mr. Cosner is apparently upset about a drawing used in the Summit Crossing plans that depicts where a north-south road will run from the conceptual Summit Crossing Parkway to U.S. 17. The path of the road is just conceptual, said a Tricord spokesman. The road will run through industrial land Mr. Cosner owns.
Mr. Cosner got in Mr. Jones' face and told him he was "not truthful" because the plans Tricord originally gave him were not the same he saw tonight during the joint meeting between the Planning Commission and the Board of Supervisors. The two were face to face for a few minutes.
Mr. Jones was vividly upset and left the room. Mr. Cosner followed him out and Mr. Jones continued out the door to his vehicle. I can still hear Mr. Cosner bellowing in the hallway. His voice carries very well.
The joint work session was just about Summit Crossing. Everyone decided to slow the project down because of the size and complexity of it. I will write more about the project and this meeting later.
Also, apparently the Planning Commission is not meeting jointly with supervisors on the 3-acre zoning proposal. Everyone told me they were, but they just left after the Summit Crossing discussion. I will take the blame for that error.

If you live along the oil-stricken coast you may be able to get some financial relief on your mortgage payments.
Government-sponsored mortgage purchaser Fannie Mae says servicers may suspend or reduce mortgage payments for those impacted by the oil spill.
Fannie Mae says it is at the mortgage servicer's discretion and is determined on a case-by-case basis.
Mortgage servicers work with homeowners through inspections and assessments to find out the impact the spill has had
Under Fannie Mae's "Special Relief Measures" policy, banks may suspend or reduce a borrower's payments for up to 90 days. After that they may offer 3 more months of forbearance, loan modification or other solution.
CEO Michael J. Williams, says "we want to give homeowners every opportunity to weather this unprecedented disaster, including relief from their mortgage payment if that will help them get back on their feet and stay in their homes."
Since some in similar situations after Hurricane Katrina ended up with huge sums to pay in the end, mortgage broker Fabio Passos says be careful:
"If you're having problems paying your mortgage contact the servicer of your loan and make sure you understand the terms and how long they allow you wait for that payment," he says.
Remember, you may not write your check to Fannie Mae every month, but you still may be eligible, because Fannie Mae backs 90% of loans issued.
Call your mortgage company to see if you qualify for relief.

Written by Edward P. Mangano Friday, 11 November 2011 00:00
On Sunday, October 30th, the Nassau County Legislature approved my budget for 2012 that includes the tough medicine needed to help our County to recover from decades of poor fiscal policies. Most importantly, the budget represents an opportunity to work cooperatively to achieve success for our residents. The budget, developed in consultation with NIFA, sets forth a comprehensive plan that makes Nassau County fiscally stronger each year over the next four years.
Despite the fact that the Democrat Minority Conference failed to support the budget, for a second consecutive year, I have been able to provide a budget that addresses Nassau's issues without raising property taxes and I implore them to join me in working together to successfully implement the enacted solutions.
The budget eliminates millions of dollars of wasteful spending and sets forth solutions, such as public-private partnerships, that will save taxpayers over $40 million annually. Nassau County will now attend to prisoners' minor injuries at the jail, saving residents millions of dollars by reducing costs related to hospital transportation and security. Even greater savings will be achieved by allowing a private operator to run the LI Bus system. This action will restore route cuts planned by the MTA and save residents more than $26 million annually.
Although $150 million in union concessions is required for the 2012 budget, there is an opportunity for union presidents to avoid the severity of extensive layoffs and unpaid furloughs by working with me to be part of the solution. Rest assured, while special interests yell and waste members' dues on t-shirts, childish slogans, silly sign trucks and distorted media campaigns, the voice I hear the loudest is that of our residents who cannot afford a tax increase during this stagnant economy.
There's an old saying that if you want a friend in politics – get a dog. I didn't run for Nassau County Executive to become part of the status quo. I ran to shake things up, work for you and to find solutions to fix the problems – and that's exactly what I'm going to continue to do. I am committed to fixing Nassau's finances and doing what's right for the residents of this wonderful County.

Getting a whole home overhaul can be an intimidating and expensive process. Aside from the construction part of a remodel, the technology upgrade can easily be a bit overwhelming.
The owners of this home wanted to go big with their overhaul, but they also wanted to make sure they didn't spend or expand in ways that were necessary for their lifestyle. Essentially, they wanted the most "bang for the buck."
With a budget of $50-60,000, they asked Surreal Systems of Anaheim, CA, to design an audio/video, lighting and control system.
Structured wiring went in first, laying the groundwork for the Crestron Adagio distributed audio system. The Adagio offers 6 zones, but Surreal Systems was able to utilize an additional zones from an Integra AV receiver. Further, Surrreal used subzones to in the dinning room, living room, master bedroom and bath buy adding additional volume controls without taxing the budget.
The music system relies on 2 iPods for a lot of audio content rather than a centralized hard drive server, plus Sirius XM Radio. Those source offer plenty of music choices for the family.
The company used a similar pragmatic approach to adding lighting control to the home. They integrated 15 of most commonly used lighting loads, but left the option to expand if the family needed to.
By integrating automatic HVAC controls into system, the family was also able to stick with the budget and save on future energy bills.
Surreal Systems continued the more-from-less approach in the distribution of video to the home's eight TVs. Rather than succumb to eight separate TV set-top-box fees, the family instead went with a solution that distributes basic cable to all the TVs, plus a DirecTV DVR to the main rooms. Two Blu-ray players feed the living room and family room.
Aside from the ample audio and video integration, the project included a couple fun bells and whistles. For one, the home owner asked for the ability to control the family pool and spa through an iPhone while away, so they could warm up the water on their way home. An iPhone can also control all the home's AV systems, which allows a lot of flexibly and expands the number of control interfaces in the house without expanding the cost.

SOUTH PITTSBURG, Tenn.—City leaders are unsure what to do with the dilapidated McReynolds High School gymnasium, and some concerned residents say they want to be a part of any decisions.
According to the South Pittsburg Historic Preservation Society, the school was built in 1921 at the foot of Whiteacre Point to accommodate African-American students during the era of segregation.
It was abandoned in 1965 when Marion County schools integrated, officials said.
The same year the school closed, the main building was burned down by an arsonist. Now, all that remains is the gymnasium, which was constructed in 1949.
City Commissioner Charles Reynolds said the building is in terrible condition, and something needs to be done with it.
"I would just like to do something with the old gym," Mayor Mike Killian said. "I am open to doing something there, but I'm not sure what we need to do. I think the commissioners feel the same way. I am open to suggestions."
South Pittsburg resident Monroe Powers, who attended the school as a young man, said two architects have looked at the building and some residents are prepared to invest money to help repair it.
"It would be easier to repair than to tear it down," he said. "We'll look at [the town's] analysis and then at the architects' analysis. Then we'll see which way we're headed. Whatever this board does, I would like for it to consult us before they do it."
Killian said he's not opposed to repairing the gym.
"We don't have any plans for it," he said. "Give us a plan, and [the town] will participate in it. I think we've got a lot of common ground here. I just think we need to make a move on it. If not, we need to fence it off. It is currently a big liability problem for the city."
Officials said there is a movement to get the building on the National Register of Historic Places, which could free up grant money to help in its revitalization.
Powers said he's glad to hear the town is willing to help save the building.
"We do not want to tear down a part of history," he said. "We want to build on that history."
