I would like to thank the residents and employees who donated blood Wednesday, Oct. 21. I am pleased to report that 14 pints of blood were collected. You can feel proud of your personal involvement in helping those who depend on blood for life giving support.

Again, thank you and we look forward to your participation in our next blood drive in March 2010.

Steven Proscia's home run to left field in the seventh inning broke a 3-3 tie and ignited Jackson to a second straight win over Chattanooga. Jabari Blash added a three-run homer to right in the eighth inning for the Generals.
The Lookouts (23-40) took a 1-0 lead in the first inning when Joc Pederson doubled to right and scored on Brian Cavazos-Galvez's single to left, and they went back up 3-2 in the fifth on Jeremy Moore's two-run homer to right.
The five-game series ends tonight, starting at 8:05 EDT. Rob Rasmussen (3-2, 2.48 ERA) is the scheduled starting pitcher for the Lookouts, with Cam Hobson (0-1, 3.00) scheduled for the Generals.

ALEC is back in the news, where it probably doesn't want to be. ALEC is the American Legislative Exchange Council, until recently virtually unknown to the general public. People are starting to understand.
Made up of about 2,000 legislators representing all 50 states and about 300 representatives from corporations and foundations, ALEC creates "model legislation," hundreds of bills which are introduced in state legislatures across America each year. Exactly which bills were from ALEC and a lot of other details were once shadowy subjects, but since last year have been repeatedly dragged into the spotlight thanks to the work of several government and media watchdog organizations, and the independent media.
Based in Washington, ALEC has existed behind the scenes since the Nixon Administration, and has taken a hand in national legislation, too (there 85 members of Congress in ALEC). However, it is state legislation that has made ALEC a slang term among political people. Whenever regressive legislation seems to come out of nowhere, people now think of ALEC.
Legislators pay $50 in annual dues and are then granted a "scholarship" to attend conferences in luxurious resort hotels (Las Vegas and Orlando were recent sites). Legislators' families are welcome; tax documents have revealed that ALEC spent $138,000 to entertain the children of members at one conference. Corporate members pay tens of thousands of dollars each in annual membership fees. Almost all of ALEC's funding for staffers, research, and conferences comes from corporate sponsors, foundations and private donors. None of these have to be publicly declared. Though legislators with leadership titles are listed in ALEC materials, the full member list is a closely guarded secret, and no one will reveal which public officials from which states hold scholarships.
ALEC's 22-member "Enterprise Board" of corporate directors is made up of top executives from Koch Companies, the Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association, Reynolds American, Wal-Mart, Pfizer, Exxon-Mobil and other very well-known firms. Hundreds of other corporations have been outed as current or past donors. Corporate representatives sit on all ALEC subject task forces and vote along with legislators to approve the wording of model bills.
In the last few years, some of this legislation has galloped through legislatures. On March 19, Tennessee became the fourth state to require that climate change denial be incorporated into its science education curriculum. Louisiana, South Dakota and Texas put similar laws on the books in 2009 and 2010. Three months ago, it was revealed that these laws started life a decade ago as ALEC draft legislation called the Environmental Literacy Improvement Act.
You are probably familiar with some other ALEC initiatives, including laws that have rolled back the ability of citizens to vote easily in eight states during the past two years. Last week, the Florida League of Women Voters suspended all voter registration efforts because the onerous new voting law carries a $10,000 fine if a registration form is not turned in within 48 hours. And Florida is timing it to the minute. The fewer citizens who participate in elections, the easier it is for other forces to influence the results, especially in swing states.
Last week, we also learned that Florida's "Stand Your Ground" law, which gives citizens the right to use deadly force if they "reasonably believe" they are in danger, was promulgated across the country by ALEC. Several more state legislatures were ready to advance their own versions last week, but the Trayvon Martin shooting incident stopped bills dead, even in Alaska.
New York has had an ALEC point man in Albany for many years. State Senator Owen Johnson's district is in Babylon and Islip, although for ten of his 40 years in the Senate he represented a significant chunk of Oyster Bay.
Senator Johnson has been on the ALEC Board of Directors since at least 1986. For 2012, his official title on the board is "Chairman Emeritus."
A bizarre struggle is now playing out between Democrats. State Senate Democrats insist that they will fund the campaign of a local candidate who wants to run against Johnson, a Republican, while the Suffolk County Democrats insist that they will not support any challenge.
Why not? Many other questions come to mind.

Review this movie
Nov 1, 2014Amazing film. It's one of those films which doesn't fully hit you how great it is until the end. They achieved so much with it considering they had a small budget. Well worth a watch!
Dec 20, 2013This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. To be honest going into this movie I didn't know what to expect but it really was great.
The actors did a great job and the movie established a connection between me and the character.
My only real critique would have to be the ending. It seem so... abrupt, just kind of ended. Other than that I would highly recommend.… Expand
Sep 22, 2013Not all movies are meant to be bright and happy, entertaining all audiences. End of Watch is one of these movies. It is raw and gritty and forces the viewer to feel uncomfortable...and it does this very well. It provides a near realistic view of what it is like to be a cop...the good, the bad and the ugly...and examines a sort of "worst case scenario." This movie is well acted and well executed. The camera style is intentionally shaky and raw, giving the viewer a sense of being right there with them. This is the type of movie you will watch and think about for a while. It carries large themes dealing with morals, ethics and a sense of family. It is highly recommended.… Expand
Sep 8, 2013I watched this movie because Anna Kendrick is in it and I think it is absolutely amazing! All the actors did a fantastic job and the script was so well written and clever. I am doing a project for school about this movie!
Sep 7, 2013I'm a huge fan of TNT;s "Southland," so I guess I'll admit to being spoiled as far as seeing realistic depictions of life as a LAPD officer is concerned. By that standard, "End of Watch" is a satisfying, albeit sometimes melodramatic slice of behind the badge that takes us both into the brotherhood that exists between sworn officers and the terror that even the most seasoned must feel (and set aside to do the job) when confronted with horrific violence.… Expand
Jul 24, 2013The various points of view and personality of End of Watch have created one of the best police dramas in years, with the shaky cam and POV technique that really immerses the viewer in the film, with said film outlining perhaps the dark side of being on the right side of the law, the trials of day to day routine but also the obstacles faced when there is always someone with a higher pay grade. Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Peña star as the two LAPD officers, Taylor and Zavala who create a tension of unpredictability and lack of safety as the film progresses. As the documentary style film unfolds, we realise these two officers end up investigating much deeper into the criminal activity in south central LA, nothing really screams new that hasn't been done before, but the way in which it unfolds can sometimes be frightening, often edgy but seriously entertaining.
The story is a character-driven account of these two officers as they deal with their job but also their personal lives, they discuss their ambitions and their love life, these two perfectly fit the bill of a buddy cop film, but it properly explores these two individuals and the closely wound lives they lead, they have weaknesses and fears, something which the two actors perfectly portray, these two officers are friends, they spend their social lives in each others company which makes the film hit home that much more.
The film itself as mentioned explores the gritty side of the police work, and the film tells a brutal tale involving trafficking and brutality of the highest level, with some very gruesome and edgy scenes that come alive with the documentary style and approach. There are laughs to be had at the very real conversations that the two share, with an excellent supporting cast to back up some of these moments.
Writer/Director David Ayer had consistently showed his strength in the cop genre of films, and his latest is a no holds barred action flick that has a lot of heart, but tells a tragic and powerful tale of friendship and doing the right thing, End of Watch succeeds in being real, honest and forthright in the story it tells, leaving room for both the police drama and the personal story the two central characters have, elevating the charisma and heart the film has.… Expand
Mar 28, 2013End Of Watch is a very fun, brilliantly directed movie. It has been said that team cop movies suck and 21 jump street proved that they don't but End Of Watch is a great new idea with guns, gangsters, and blood. With the makers of Training Day making the film, you know it's a professional film and it is. With its 90 minutes of rollicking, cheesy flicking action this film is superb for a night out with friends.… Expand
Jan 24, 2013End of Watch is a brilliant and rare police film that makes you love the characters and leaves a true impact on its audience. I didn't know what I was going to think of the movie before watching since the trailer couldn't describe the genius behind what the film is all about. It shows the hardships that police officers must go through every day, and now I have a much better understanding of what it… Expand
Dec 26, 2012I watched the movie not knowing what to expect when the main characters were playing completely different type of roles than usual. It chronicled the lives of two cops caught in the war zone of crime, gangs, drugs, and violence and kept a light humor even during the worst scenes. The two young officers, their family involvement, their wives, the job, their fellow officers, personality profiles were set early and the action went from one dramatic scene to the next with gang bangers and street people actively involved in every aspect of their city's subculture. If you aren't ready for violent action, you might want to pass on this. Every minute there was constant action, dialogue, this movie had no dead air time with nothing but scenery. During the non action moments it was full of banter between the two about everything from their families to their sex lives. Some comedy but mostly drama and action.… Expand
Dec 9, 2012Best Movie of the Year, Period. 5 or 6 years down the line, ask any cop about his fav movie and there's a good chance that it's gonna be this one. One of the best Guy/Buddy movies of all times.
Dec 2, 2012I didn't know what to expect after I heard of this movie but in the end I loved it.
Good jokes, good acting, I loved the camera work.
Very well done for a movie with a little budget.
Nov 23, 2012It is really a thrilling cop movie that i have not seen for a while. Excellent acting and directing all the way. I cannot complain about it, i really loved it and felt the characters. If you think this movie is not a good cop movie, or an action/drama movie, well... looks like you have some brain issues.
Nov 13, 2012End of Watch is a thrilling action drama film incorporating the elements of hand-held footage. What
Nov 5, 2012Awesome film, love the camera work. The acting is natural, and the storyline is compelling. Many scenes put me on the edge of my seat, and I would gladly watch this film again.
Oct 20, 2012End of Watch was so good I was literally sweating from the tense moments it gives you through out this film. The most compelling aspect is the two lead characters, who cannot possibly have more chemistry together and deliver Oscar worthy performances. It's the best performances by these two lead actors who you believe are actual cops. The story makes you care so much for these two that you don't wan't anything to happen to them and you will utterly despise the ghetto gangsters. It has the most hysterical moments between two cops in a movie and then drops you in a hard hitting dramatic scene. The "found-footage" film making style is supposed to make you emotionally impacted and it does that so uniquely well which is unlike most "found-footage" movies. They show some scenes that are so disturbingly authentic which you would otherwise hear about in the news. This is written and directed by David Ayer , who also wrote Training Day, and Harsh Times. This is by far his best work yet. I was very blown away by how well this was written, directed, and acted. It's the best movie I've seen in months. I now have more respect for cops than I ever did.… Collapse
Oct 15, 2012End of Watch is the big sorprise of this year -in my opinion- the story can have a simple development, but when the movie start you watch that have an intelligent development, and the performances of the cast are awesome, the script can have some mistakes, but is not much. End of Watch is interesting, funny and is a sorprise.
Oct 6, 2012Really liked this movie, but what I really enjoyed was how you felt attached to all the characters. I love action films, but one of the main flaws is that beyond shooting and killing, there is no story behind them, but that was not the case here. Hell, even the bad guys had a story behind them. Great character development and acting led to an atypical cop drama, but it was still great.
Sep 30, 2012Amazing movie. Great action, great acting all the way through. Well written. I enjoyed it far more than The Master which is getting all the rave reviews lately. Toward the end there is a bit of subtle foreshadowing, but the ending is still somewhat unexpected.
Sep 27, 2012This was a purely great film. Great performances delivered into a great story. It was thrilling, it was hilarious, and it was dramatic. The only issue i had with gthe movie was the annoyance of the switching of cameras, i wanted them to just stick to one but it kept switching but after a ways into the film i got used to it but other than that this movie was great. Im not a big fan of Jake Gyllenhaal or Michael Pena fan but they were both perfect and hilarious in this film, they're "brotherhood" was so strong which made the film so much better because of how well they blended together. If you don't like violence or alot of strong language then don't bother with End of Watch, but if not then you must see this! Its well worth your money and your time! 9.5/10… Expand
Sep 26, 2012Not since Training Day has a movie grown above the cliche'd cop storylines, and Ayer is a master of this genre. This is by far his best work, and it's a heartbreaker. Look for Gyllenhall this Oscar season.
Sep 25, 2012Wow! I was pretty blown away by this! Great movie. Gyllenhall and Pena are amazing together. Fantastic cop movie, though the one negative for me was that there were some extremely grisly, upsetting scenes. One scene in particular affected me more than I can remember any scene in a movie affecting me in a long time(though I am kind of a wuss in that regard!). Definitely not something to take the kids to. But a really good movie.… Expand
Sep 24, 2012This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There were racist jokes, a gold-plated AK-47, a man who survives being stabbed in the eye with a knife. There's simply not enough of that in movies. Also, the bad guys were cast well. Big Evil plays big evil very well.… Expand
Sep 23, 2012This film humanizes cops. Excellent movie! The movie contains a lot of criminal trends. It may seem fake to a lot of people but the truth is that what this movie contains in it is reality. When watching this movie people may say "that doesn't happen" the truth is that it does. I will watch this movie again in the next couple of days!!!
Sep 21, 2012An amazing police thriller/drama film that reminds you of such great cop show oldies like Adam-12 and 21 Jump Street. With deep characters, great acting and superb directing, End of Watch is worth watching.
Forceful and arresting, Ayer's follow-up to "Harsh Times" and "Street Kings" sees him confidently playing to his strengths.
It's a collection of cop-movie clichés but presented with sufficient flair and strong performances that the ride is enough, even if it's on rails.
The performances here are so sharp that viewers may wish End of Watch has been shot by someone who knew how to find the right point of view for a scene and leave it there.

Lesson Plan
Teaching Kindness
The focus of this Clifford lesson plan is to help students recognize and encourage acts of kindness.
- Grades: PreK–K, 1–2
Woof! Woof!: The focus of this lesson is to recognize acts of kindness through reading and language experiences and to encourage children to share acts of kindness with someone special.
Teaching with Clifford's Big Idea: Be Kind
Acts of kindness are not easily forgotten. When children are given opportunities to share kindness with others, they learn valuable social and emotional lessons that will influence them for a lifetime.
Teach: Cooking with Clifford!
Objective: The following activity nurtures essential:
- social and emotional skills
- literacy and language skills
- life skills
Help children express feelings and give examples of kindness that they have experienced at home and school. Identify kind people in their lives. Read Clifford Wants a Cookie by Norman Bridwell (Scholastic). Ask children to retell the story in sequence by following the pictures. Share details of Clifford's time in the kitchen. Could a dog really make cookies? Provide the recipe from the book and encourage children to make Clifford's cookies at home.
Practice: Sweet Kindness!
Objective: The following activity nurtures essential:
- social and emotional skills
- fine motor skills
- life skills
Stock centers with canned or pre-prepared white icing, sugar cookies, sprinkles, nuts or small candy pieces for topping, aprons, spreading tools, and small paper bags. Before beginning, have children express their feelings about someone that has shown them kindness. Explain to them that they are going to prepare a sweet treat of cookies for that person. Give each child a paper bag and crayons. Have them draw hearts, smiley faces, or designs of their own choice. Sign and date the bags. Ice cookies and add toppings. Divide evenly among children. Place cookies in bags. Fold top of bag, punch two holes 2-3 inches apart. Thread ribbon, tie in a bow and send home! Start the next day by encouraging children to share how this act of kindness made them feel.
Extend: Kindness can be shown in many ways throughout the school day!
- Keep a kindness jar filled with simple goodies. Have children draw small rewards out of the jar when they model acts of kindness in the classroom or on the playground.
- Read children newspaper or magazine articles that reinforce the concept of kindness. Valuable life lessons can be learned from real-life accounts of kindness that touch hearts and teach compassion for others.

October 15, 2013
Nearly 50 bus operators came together in Houston earlier this month for a meeting of the newly created Hispanic Motorcoach Council (HMC). The group offers support through networking, knowledge and information related to security issues, safety compliance, legislative/regulatory oversight and operational best practices. Led by HMC President Bill Torres of Lorton, Va.-based DC Trails, the Hispanic Motorcoach Council is looking to offer tools to help operators continue to build their business. During the meeting, the group heard from safety compliance experts, local law enforcement and inspection officers, ADA training specialists, the motorcoach manufacturers and other bus operators. Houston Sheriff Adrian Garcia provided a rousing bilingual welcome following a flag display by a color guard detail. ABA gave a presentation on industry updates.Throughout the meeting there was discussion of a variety of topics, including Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance inspection procedures and out-of-service criteria, ADA definitions as well as examples on how to handle service animals and occupational accommodations for individuals returning to work, as well as operational best practices such as utilizing on-vehicle video technology, the scheduling of drivers, customer service recommendations on lost baggage and how to get involved with grant programs.As a member of the HMC and American Bus Association (ABA), interested bus operators are entitled to a variety of association benefits that can serve their unique needs, including a legislative voice, regulatory watchdog activities, money-saving services, connections to other operators and industry suppliers, regular communications, an annual meeting and specialized safety training. It is the goal of the HMC to ensure that operators are made aware of the information and tools available to them to help guarantee that motorcoaches remain the safest surface mode of transportation available to the traveling public and to help them grow their businesses in the language that they are most comfortable.The Houston meeting was organized by a leadership group within the HMC consisting of Bill Torres; Liliana Aguilar of Houston's Omnibus Express; Fernando Rodriguez of El Expreso/Tornado Bus Co., also based in Houston; Mike Castro of Corporate Coaches, based in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.; and Rodrigo Vazquez of DC Trails in Lorton, Va., and is representative of a large cross-section of the industry with varied fleet sizes, operational service offerings and geography."I think we are assembling an incredibly talented, enthusiastic, and experienced group with the ability and resources available to help operators handle many of the challenges that can be encountered while providing safe and efficient top of the line motorcoach service, but it is also important to let the [HMC] operators know that they don't have to try to take on all of these challenges alone and that is what the Hispanic Motorcoach Council is all about," said HMC President Bill Torres.As priority items, the group will be focusing on reducing U.S./Mexican border crossing wait times, providing increased access to intermodal facilities such as ports and airports, enhancing safe bus operations, and promoting business-to-business networking so as to establish a maintenance and breakdown network among Spanish speaking motorcoach operators throughout North America."ABA is a big tent and we have much of the best and brightest that this industry has to offer and the HMC helps take that to yet another level. We would like to welcome the new members of the Hispanic Motorcoach Council and will do whatever we can to ensure that they have all of the tools and support that they need to be successful," said ABA President/CEO Peter Pantuso, who also attended the session.The next one-day HMC regional meeting will be held in South Florida in mid-November. The HMC will co-locate its first annual meeting at ABA's Marketplace in Nashville, Tenn. on Jan. 12, 2014. There will be additional one-day meetings held in other regional locations periodically throughout 2014 and virtual meetings via webinar will also be convened. All resources and information for HMC members are available in both English and Spanish.

Submit website to search engines means submitting your website or blog URL to search engine's webmaster page. It may also involve submission of XML sitemaps. Website submission will enable search bots to crawl your site better and index your web pages accordingly. It is one important point in the point of view better SEO. Better indexation is the result of submission of your site to search engines. If you are a website or blog owner, I mean webmaster, I am sure that you may already know how you get majority of your site visitors. Most probably, the main source of visitors or traffic to your site is from search engines Google and Bing. If you are active on social networks like Facebook, Stumbleupon and Digg you may get visitors from these sites too.
My question is should we limit our dependence for better website traffic to these sources and sit idle?. In my opinion it will be a disaster in future. At some point of time in the future if the popularity of this search engines got diminishes or even banned in your country due to some unforeseen circumstances, you will lose all your visitors and dumped.
So spread your world by submitting to more search engines and hope for the best. There are some more popular search engines in the world other than Google and Bing. Country specific search engines like Baidu and Yandex are the popular name among them and enjoys supremacy in their respective countries China and Russia.
If you submit your site to these search engines too, you will get some more visitors in return. Not expect a lot of visitors for the time being. But of course over the time you can develop a different source for directing traffic to your site and little worry about Google farmer update that will ruin your entire blogging life in seconds. After all something is better than nothing.
First I am introducing you Baidu the Chinese search engine giant where Google couldn't make inroads and eventually pulled out from the competition due to a Govt. ban.
How to Submit Website or Blog to Baidu.com
Baidu is the leading search engine in China where Google got a set back due to ban. So make your website's presence there by depending Baidu to index your content for Chinese internet users, I mean Baidu searchers, all over the world.

Here is the Baidu blog submission page http://www.baidu.com/search/url_submit.html
It is in Chinese language and don't worry. Open the web page in Google Chrome and permit it to translate the page to English or any other language of your choice. Also you can refer the screenshot below. Enter your website URL and enter the captcha code. No more site verification process or XML sitemap submission is available there at present.

On the very next page you can add your site to Yandex. The page will refresh and you will be provided with instructions to create a text file on a specified name and upload it to the root directory of your site. Create a blank text file with the name specified by Yandex and upload. Once the file uploaded hit the verify button on the bottom of the page. That is all.

Two people in the trial of the drive-by shooting death of Denver Broncos cornerback Darrent Williams are in jail forrefusing to testify.
Authorities say the two people were in the same vehicle as Willie Clark when he allegedly fired the fatal shots into a limousine Williams was in, killing him almost instantly on New Year's Day 2007.
Clark faces charges of first-degree murder, 16 counts of attempted murder and other charges. He says he is innocent.
Police say the shooting happened after Williams and other football players got into an altercation at a Denver nightclub with another group that included Clark.
The people who refused to testify Wednesday will be given a chance every day of the trial change their minds. If they don't, they'll be sent back to jail.

We are very sorry for this inconvenience, however it is out of our control. If you have Facebook, you can see the current pets we have available on our Facebook page "Idaho Falls Animal Shelter". Thank you for your patience We are now adding animals to Petfinder as they come into the shelter. We are hoping that this will also be another avenue for lost pets to find their owners. The "Available Date" for each animal is listed in their description. All adoptions are based on a first-come basis and we put names on a list for each animal. The first person on the list will be able to adopt the animal on its' available date if it has not been reclaimed by the owner.

If your name is on the list and we have not heard from you prior to 3:00 pm on the available date, the animal will be adopted to the first person coming into the shelter that wants to adopt the animal.
Who We Are
Welcome to IDAHO FALLS ANIMAL SERVICES Idaho Falls Animal Services has been operating in the Southeastern Idaho city of Idaho Falls for many years. Up until 1999 we carried on business out of a small, antiquated animal shelter. At that time, the City of Idaho Falls determined that a larger, more modern facility was needed to house and care for the growing population of animals in our city. With our current facility, staff, and access to this web site we are looking forward to finding loving homes for the many pets in our care. OUR MISSION at Idaho Falls Animal Services is twofold: 1. Enforce the City of Idaho Falls' Animal Control ordinances in order to protect the welfare of the residents and pets of our community. 2. To humanely care for the pets that are entrusted to our care due to various circumstances and, if at all possible, endeavor to return them to their rightful owners or find loving, adoptive homes for those in need of such through our adoption facility
Adopting a friend
After taking the time to examine our animals available for adoption, you may have the desire to welcome one of our pets into your life. GREAT! When adopting a pet from our facility, you must agree to 1) Give the animal proper and humane care, food ,water, shelter, exercise and all other necessities. 2) Provide the pet with veterinary care at your own expense on a yearly basis for booster vaccinations and as needed for medical problems. 3) Allow the Idaho Falls Animal Services to repossess ownership if unfavorable conditions regarding the care of the pet exist. Although we take every precaution to assure the health of our shelter animals, no guarantee of any kind can be given. If you feel that you are ready to accept the responsibility of a new pet in your life, be aware that all animals that are adopted from our facility will be spayed or neutered before you take possession of them. This, of course, is to reduce the problem of pet overpopulation and the subsequent euthanasia of unwanted pets. ADOPTION FEES Fees for the adoption of pets from our facility are as follows: Male Cats $85.00 Female Cats $105.00 (price includes low-cost spay/neuter, rabies vaccination, mircochip and 1st shots for kittens) Male Dogs $101.00, Female Dogs $121.00 (price includes low cost spay/neuter, rabies vaccination, microchip, applicable license and 1st shots for puppies) If the pet is already spayed/neutered, then the cost will be reduced by the amount of the spay/neuter.

You know what the worst activity in the world has got to be? Clubbing. I went for my first time this past weekend in Vegas at Tryst and was completely miserable.
First, there's getting into the club. We were lucky for our group of twenty or so to get in without a cover charge, especially since there were more boys than girls. Who wants to pay $20-$40 bucks just to wait in a Disneyland-sized line?
Then, once you're in, you get packed together like a can of sardines on the dance floor and you're stuck trying to wiggle out an arm to dance. How is that appealing to anyone?
Not only that, but you have to shout at the top of your lungs just so the person standing five inches from you can sort of make out what you're trying to say.
So after you find your spot and get as comfortable as you're going to be for the night, a six foot girl in five inch stilettos comes by and stomps on your poor little feet without even realizing it. As if you weren't cozy enough already in your own heels.
Looking around the club, I'm curious as to where these people came from. I've never seen so many creepers in my life. There's the 55 year old man walking around completely sober scoping out the 20 year old girls that can barely walk a straight a line, let alone walk. Then there's the man who's rubbing up against every girl in a skintight dress. Again, do people like this?
Then there's drunk people. Don't even get me started on that. Sometimes, drunk people when you're sober can be funny. Most of the time, it's just annoying. That's probably my fault for putting myself in that environment, though, since I've never been drunk (or even buzzed) in my life.
Bottom line? That was my first and last clubbing experience. Sorry, Vegas. I'll gladly stick to your shopping, food, and "Deal or No Deal" slot machines.
Have you ever had baked oatmeal before? If you haven't, you're truly missing out. It's so easy to whip up, can be refrigerated for a couple of days, and warmed up to eat whenever you want. It tastes just as good as when it came out of the oven. This recipe slightly adapted from Annie Eats is also very easy to change. Mix up the fruits or kind of nuts and you've got yourself a different dish that tastes just as great!
- 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
- ¼ cup chopped slivered almonds
- ½ tsp. baking powder
- 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- 2 tbsp. unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 2-3 ripe bananas, peeled and sliced
- 1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen), divided
- Preheat the oven to 375˚ F and lightly grease a 2-quart baking dish.

NEW YORK The domestic steel plate market continued to soften this past week as a result of oversupply and lackluster demand, despite a recent uptick in steel sheet prices.
Domestic mills are said to be quoting around $37 per hundredweight ($740 per ton) for discrete carbon plate in the Midwest and Southeast, down from reported mid-January quotes of around $38 per cwt ($760 per ton). Actual sales prices are lower, however, with most market players reporting spot transactions this past week at around $36 per cwt ($720 per ton) f.o.b. Midwest mill, with some noting $35.50 ($710 per ton) was possible with minimal negotiation.
The weakening plate prices come at a time when a number of sheet mills are looking to raise prices, signaling mixed moves in the flat-rolled steel sector.
A number of domestic millsled by West Chester, Ohio-based AK Steel Corp.hiked published sheet prices $2 to $2.50 per hundredweight ($40 to $50 per ton) in late January (amm.com, Jan. 24).
Those announcements led some in the plate market, which at times mirrors moves in the sheet market, to wonder if they would see a similar increase. However, that hasnt been the case, with plate quotes and transaction prices actually decreasing this past week.
"As for discrete plate, Ive seen about a $1-per-cwt decrease this week. I had an inquiry out to get a couple of truckloads, and I didnt really have to work all that hard to get a lower price," one Midwest service center source said. "I dont think demand is there, and the mills all have fairly substantial inventories."
U.S. plate buyers had said in mid-January that the market was facing downward pressure and that prices would likely soften in coming weeks (amm.com, Jan. 18).
Some steel plate buyers said they were worried that an expected seasonal uptick had not yet arrived.
"Usually, this is our busiest time of yearJanuary, February, Marchand we make the majority of our money," a second Midwest service center source said. "Thats not happening right now. Pricing is usually skyrocketing, but demand isnt there."
Market participants also said that domestic mills continue to carry "substantial" volumes of inventory in regular sizes, contributing to short lead times. As a result, buyers are hesitant to buy more than whats needed.
"Lead times are still very short, and theres no reason to buy in bulk," a third Midwest service center source said. "Things are changing so quickly."
Plate imports have had little traction on the East Coast as a result of downward domestic prices, sources said, although the West Coast continues to be a relatively attractive destination for imported plate.
"Imports right now are not a consideration if it takes three months (for imported) vs. two to four weeks (for domestic) material to arrive," the second service center source added. "If its not at a substantial savings, its not worth it."
Medium plate prices at the Port of Houston have remained steady at $35.50 to $36.50 per cwt ($710 to $730 per ton), sources said.
"Things are coming along, but it isnt easy," one steel trader said. "There are some bright spots in plate, but its been spotty. The interest weve seen is in thicker gauges. And as for pricing, our buyers are saying there are lots of negotiations but its a wait-and-see period."
While its unclear whether prices will continue to soften, buyers cant quite seem to agree on how things look moving forward.
"The plate market has been clogged with cheap domestic product, and I dont think the mills can raise prices right now," a Southern service center source said. "The last couple of weeks in this month havent been bad, although the first couple were awful."

It's really spot on about the Bayville beaches not being open as early as in past years and having shorter hours and it appears those few who made the decision got voted down and the hours restored. Great stuff, the Village Board listened and acted. Cutting there to try and solve financial issues wasn't right. Thank God smarter minds prevailed. But, the reason for Bayville's looking to save a few bucks is not a failure of the present administration, it is a direct result of the old mayor's inadequate preparation of what was known to come, mainly LOSAP and a Federal Feasibility Study that was ignored (hidden) this past year. In the real world when you know something is going to happen you start making reserves, but not the great mayor of the past. No plan means no problems, ignore it and don't run again, let the new guys take the heat. Like now. All this back slapping of the old mayor's "shoestring budget" regime is getting old.
The current mayor, while sometimes a bit aloof, has done a decent job with the problems left him by the last mayor. First was the $250,000+ LOSAP payment that was known coming three years prior but nothing was put into reserve to start funding it. Then came the Federal Feasibility Study that was signed up for eight more years ago that the village has just been billed $250,000 for. Again, no planning and no reserves. Lately there's been a lot of praise for the past but little recognition for the present.
Look at Bayville today, a winner community that's being totally renovated, new storefronts, beautiful plantings, a new children's playground, great beaches, the best Fourth of July celebration on the North Shore and so much more.
The only issues the current administration has are due to the direct inadequacy of the past mayor just so she could look good. Dump all the problems on the new guys, start a BS campaign about how good she was, so she can stage a comeback. Well, I don't think so, the truth will prevail, there's no coming back for Victoria Siegel!
My congratulations for the current administration. The village is looking better every week, thank you.

Sodium fluoride is an inorganic chemical compound with the formula NaF. A colorless solid, it is a source of the fluoride ion in diverse applications. Sodium fluoride is less expensive and less hygroscopic than the related salt potassium fluoride.
Structure, general properties, occurrence[edit]
Sodium fluoride is an ionic compound, dissolving to give separated Na+ and F− ions. Like sodium chloride, it crystallizes in a cubic motif where both Na+ and F− occupy octahedral coordination sites;[4][5] its lattice spacing, approximately 462 pm, is somewhat smaller than that of sodium chloride.
The mineral form of NaF, villiaumite, is moderately rare. It is known from plutonic nepheline syenite rocks.[6]
NaF is prepared by neutralizing hydrofluoric acid or hexafluorosilicic acid (H2SiF6), byproducts of the reaction of fluorapatite (Ca5(PO4)3F) (from phosphate rock) from the production of superphosphate fertilizer. Neutralizing agents include sodium hydroxide and sodium carbonate. Alcohols are sometimes used to precipitate the NaF:
- HF + NaOH → NaF + H2O
From solutions containing HF, sodium fluoride precipitates as the bifluoride salt NaHF2. Heating the latter releases HF and gives NaF.
- HF + NaF ⇌ NaHF2
In a 1986 report, the annual worldwide consumption of NaF was estimated to be several million tonnes.[7]
Fluoride salts is often added to drinking water and some food products for dental health. Other fluoride sources are used as well, e.g., salts of hexafluorosilicate. The fluoride enhance the strength of teeth by the formation of fluorapatite, a naturally occurring component of tooth enamel.[8][9] Although sodium fluoride is also used to fluoridate water and, indeed, is the standard by which other water-fluoridation compounds are gauged, hexafluorosilicic acid (H2SiF6) and its salt sodium hexafluorosilicate (Na2SiF6) are more commonly used additives in the U.S.[10] Toothpaste often contains sodium fluoride to prevent cavities.[11]
Sodium fluoride is used as a cleaning agent (e.g., as a "laundry sour").[7]
A variety of specialty chemical applications exist in synthesis and extractive metallurgy. It reacts with electrophilic chlorides including acyl chlorides, sulfur chlorides, and phosphorus chloride.[12] Like other fluorides, sodium fluoride finds use in desilylation in organic synthesis. The fluoride is the reagent for the synthesis of fluorocarbons.[citation needed]
In medical imaging, fluorine-18-labelled sodium fluoride (USP, sodium fluoride F 18) is used in positron emission tomography (PET). Relative to conventional bone scintigraphy carried out with gamma cameras or SPECT systems, PET offers more sensitivity and spatial resolution. A disadvantage of PET is that fluorine-18 labelled sodium fluoride is less widely available than conventional technetium-99m-labelled radiopharmaceuticals.[citation needed]
Sodium fluoride is used as a stomach poison for plant-feeding insects. Inorganic fluorides such as fluorosilicates and sodium fluoride complex magnesium ions as magnesium fluorophosphate. They inhibit enzymes such as enolase that require Mg2+ as a prosthetic group. Thus, fluoride poisoning prevents phosphate transfer in oxidative metabolism.[13]
Fluorides, particularly aqueous solutions of sodium fluoride, are rapidly and quite extensively absorbed.[14]
Fluorides interfere with electron transport and calcium metabolism. Calcium is essential for maintaining cardiac membrane potentials and in regulating coagulation. Large ingestion of fluoride salts or hydrofluoric acid may result in fatal arrhythmias due to profound hypocalcemia. Recreational inhalation of fluoridated hydrocarbon refrigerants like Freon has been associated with "sudden sniffing death", which is thought to be a fatal arrhythmia caused by myocardial sensitization to catecholamines.[15]
Chronic over-absorption can cause hardening of bones, calcification of ligaments, and buildup on teeth. Fluoride can cause irritation or corrosion to eyes, skin, and nasal membranes.[15]
The lethal dose for a 70 kg (154 lb) human is estimated at 5–10 g.[7] Sodium fluoride is classed as toxic by both inhalation (of dusts or aerosols) and ingestion.[16] In high enough doses, it has been shown to affect the heart and circulatory system. For occupational exposures, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health have established occupational exposure limits at 2.5 mg/m3 over an eight-hour time-weighted average.[17]
In the higher doses used to treat osteoporosis, plain sodium fluoride can cause pain in the legs and incomplete stress fractures when the doses are too high; it also irritates the stomach, sometimes so severely as to cause ulcers. Slow-release and enteric-coated versions of sodium fluoride do not have gastric side effects in any significant way, and have milder and less frequent complications in the bones.[18] In the lower doses used for water fluoridation, the only clear adverse effect is dental fluorosis, which can alter the appearance of children's teeth during tooth development; this is mostly mild and is unlikely to represent any real effect on aesthetic appearance or on public health.[19] A chronic fluoride ingestion of 1 ppm of fluoride in drinking water can cause mottling of the teeth (fluorosis) and an exposure of 1.7 ppm will produce mottling in 30–50 % of patients.[14]
