ARLINGTON -- The city issued a demolition permit this month for the dilapidated Eastern Star Home, a historic building on Division Street that preservationists had fought to save.Providence Bank of Columbia, Mo., has six months from the Feb. 15 permit issuance to tear down the two-story structure, which was built in 1924 and has been vacant for years.Bank representative Larry McCorkle told the Arlington City Council in October that potential investors would not buy the 28.5-acre property at 1201 E. Division St. without assurances from the city that they can tear down the nearly 90-year-old structure.McCorkle said Wednesday that the bank has "purchase offers on the table" and that it will tear down the building if the buyers request it.The Eastern Star Home was named to Preservation Texas' most-endangered properties list in 2006 and was given a high-priority preservation rating in the Arlington Historic Resources Survey Update in 2007.At the urging of the Landmark Preservation Commission and the Arlington Historical Society, the City Council voted in October to delay issuing a demolition permit for as long as was legally allowed so supporters could have time to find a way to preserve the Eastern Star Home.That stay ran out Dec. 22.This report includes material from the Star-Telegram archives.Susan Schrock, 817-709-7578Twitter: @susanschrock

Windstream Communications confirmed Friday that phone service has been restored to Southeast Nebraska. A representative said service has been stable since 11:20 p.m. Thursday.
The Lancaster County Sheriff's Department said early Friday that it was receiving all calls, from both wireless phones and landlines.
An equipment malfunction at Windstream's Lincoln switching facility caused the problems Thursday, and affected more than just Lincoln. Many customers across 22 counties were unable to contact 911. Dispatch centers had to provide other ways to report emergencies.
Windstream says it is bringing in a third party Friday to perform an audit of the system. But a spokesperson said the problem has been resolved.

Wired broadband adoption dips as wireless flies
Australia figures misleading
Wired vs. wireless uptake numbers from Australia are bound to be misleading as many people have to decide between wireless broadband and dial-up, not wireless broadband and wired broadband. In thousands of exchanges around Australia, there simply isn't an ADSL port to be had. (Telstra has under provisioned since day one.) At that point the options are:
* Wireless broadband, if available.
* Dial-up.
* Satellite.
Australian numbers are only meaningful if you compare what choices people have made from the choices *available* to them. As Telstra continues with their TopHat program (adding ADSL2 ports to existing RIMs), we should see greater wired take-up again...until the ports are exhausted.
Note that there's no point asking Telstra as their don't keep a count of how many people are waiting on a wired port to come free. They have a national demand register and they claim to have a 'waiting list' for ports. The waiting list does not exist and the demand register is rarely used.
Given that Telstra's main infrastructure spend has been on 4G networks, it's entirely self-serving for them to claim that people don't want wired Internet. People want it, they just can't get it.
Australians love mobile devices, but not mobile downloads
ADSL uptake is slow because there are no ports
As always, thanks for the fact-based coverage of network issues here in Aus.
Regarding "mobile broadband accounted for 90 percent of new connections added in Australia between June 2011 and December 2011"
Hardly a surprise when in so many areas it is impossible to buy an ADSL connection. There has been a chronic scarcity of ADSL ports throughout Australia for years. In my area, your only chance of getting ADSL is to wait for someone to move or die. Telstra is now rolling out "top hats" to add more ports to existing RIMs but the program is moving slowly and will only cover a fraction of the areas that lack ports.
So, it's not too impressive that wireless broadband uptake has been so high when the alternative is dialup, not ADSL.

I was about to go to bed with a heavy head. As I have been searching for a cheap banner rotation management system for awhile now and this pops up.
This is a wonderful, easy and intuitive system to use. For the cost of it. It's ACE.
You should give yourself a pat on the back for the development and creation of this. As you have done us proud.
If you are looking for simplicity and an ultra friendly installation. Then this is the one.
I especially like the ability to change the rotation from flash to basic rotations. So that it works on iphones ETC.
Nice job guys. Keep up the good work.
If you were able to remove the the text you have added in the Weather Condition: KWEATHER_LIGHT_SNOW
You would get more comments and more people downloading it and giving donations. I would if it was removed on the next upgrade.
Good job though, it looks and works perfectly other than this small blip.
Functionality: Perfect, wouldn't change a thing, loaded on 2.5 first time and has already picked up some missing meta data which is great.
Price: Overpriced in my opinion. If it was $39.99 I would consider it, but £49.99 for the PRO version is steep.
Styling: Perfect! Great layout and forward thinking development.
Keep up the good work.
I purchased a slideshow a year ago and the support was very slow. This has now completely changed and this is a very positive step in the company's evolution.
The Component purchased was very simple to install, and it was a joy to be able to get a response from their technical team within minutes and not days, like other developers.
If you are looking for a component gallery that is totally inspired and simple to use, which allows you to look totally professional and offers "you" the customer, a first class service. Stop thinking about buying it, and start doing it.
Thank you
1. You click the download button and you can actually then click another button at the their site and download it without having to mess around with registration which in my mind is a complete waste of time.
2. Loaded straight off and no issues whatsoever and works with 4 different templates that I tested it on.
3. It is Beautiful
4. It is FREE
5. it will transform your website.
Thank you to the developer for making such wonderful modules. Have a virtual beer on me. :-)
This Component + the easy to understand video to watch is one of the best components on Joomla today. I'm always happy to test new things to add to my business website which make my life easier, and this is one of those things that does. Fantastic Job to the developer of the Component and the Plugin.
It loaded first time, installed perfectly on J2.5 and even added a very helpful ADMIN BAR inside the Joomla admin section........ and because I am a perfectionist I noticed one spelling mistake in the Joomla admin section. which read:
Admin Sesion Infinite
I think that needs to read: Admin Session Infinite
Tiny weeny mistake, nothing that glares out!
If you are thinking about downloading this. STOP THINKING AND START DOING. IT IS BRILLIANT.
Thank you for review. You have very keen eyes.
The language issue you mentioned is already fixed in 1.0.6. You were probably trying 1.0.5.
Not any more.... This makes everything simple as life should be. I gotta take my HAT OFF to you guys and say it's worth every penny. I paid £10 which is not a great deal of money or such a superb component.
If you are looking at this and thinking.... Do I buy it... Don't I buy it? Stop thinking and start doing.
The only let down for me was the download section, when you pay by PAYPAL it sends you to the payment page which is in Dutch. Now most people will know where the buttons are for payment as they probably use paypal everyday, but what about those people who do not? This would put me off if I didn't use paypal all the time. (I'm surprised it's not been raised before.)
I paid for it by paypal got sent an email and could not download the file in winzip or winrar and I found this hugely frustrating!!!! GRRR.....
Robert got back to me straight away on a Saturday night and re-sent them to me in a winzip folder when he should of been down the pub.... So thanks.
Overall a great extension that is perfect in every way.
This is exactly the same.
A friend purchased this one and nearly smashed his keyboard after telling me about it. It's a real shame....
I won't EVER buy anything from this person again. Don't buy, steer clear.
Stuff that needs work: In the admin section for in Joomla backend for 2.5 the category menu items are very odd. If this Lead Management is for the Shipping industry or a Parcel company then fine, but it does not say this when you purchase it and their are spelling mistakes. I mean really simple fundamental ones which you should not get wrong. Like Remainder, should read REMINDER!
The menu service reads:
Name--Remainder--Weightage--Status--Email--Country--Handling--Status History--Picked--Files
What the hell is Weightage? Handling? Picked? If I had known this was for shipping. I WOULD NOT OF PAID FOR IT. WHAT A CON!!!
You also cannot change it..... You can add customtext boxes but you cannot choose where they are put on the form. This is the 2nd component I have purchased from you now and both are poor.
If you are a Parcel company or shipping firm. Buy it! If you are not. ... DO NOT BUY!
We have clearly mentioned about this in our website. We request everybody to read the documentation properly before they purchase any of our extension. Please find my inline comments of each
The menu service reads:
Name--Remainder--Weightage--Status--Email--Country--Handling--Status History--Picked--Files
Name : Name of the lead
Remainder : This will help to follow up the lead
Weightage : Weight-age of lead, You can call it as Low, Average, High etc
Status : Lead status
Email : Email address
Country :
Handling : Who handling this lead. Sales person name will display here.
Status History : All history of this lead. Admin can cross check with sales person. Whats happening
Picked : It means, Sales person started processsing the lead or not.
Files : Attachments...
Works very well in the demo, but then it falls over after purchase.
My first impression is a good one, but then after installing it the dream turns to a nightmare.
1. Great Registration Process, simple, elegant and no fuss with address, telephone and all that jazz. Email address and PAY and done. Perfect.
2. Installed first time and enabled Plugin, all good so far.....
3. Six really great styles to choose from and great colour choices :-)
Installed the first Testimonial as a dummy run before emailing all my clients to say "please come and give us a testimonial." Just as well I did.
1. When inputting the Testimonial you cannot add STATE or COUNTY, only City and Country, this is a big let down as most my clients are local businesses who would like to add that.
2. The Avatar load up is fine, but I loaded the wrong image and I could not change it. The only way to remove the avatar was to remove the whole testimonial and start again. POINTLESS!
3. There is no DATE on the Testimonials to say when they left the Testimonial, another BIG let down.
4. The Video is also very strange. There is no text to show what you are supposed to do. I know how to add Youtube ETC, but many of the components at least have som text or a bubble box showing you what to do, but nothing....... Just bizarre.
It is a great little component, but it really needs a lot of work. I am very surprised by the other User comments and that no-one has raised this stuff before.
Anyway, looks good so far, but needs some major tweaks.
Hi Santino,
Thanks for your feedback :-)
All the features we have in our existing version. Which you mentioned in negative points. If you are facing any problem to find this feature, then you can contact our support team.also we are providing 24X6 ticket support and FREE Forum support. Please look at the support forum here http://www.jextn.com/joomla-onlineexam-component-support.
Please find my inline comments for your Negative points.
1. When inputting the Testimonial you cannot add STATE or COUNTY, only City and Country, this is a big let down as most my clients are local businesses who would like to add that. ==> In the backend have the option to Show hide STATE or COUNTY, only City and Country, You can see from here Components->Je Testimonial->Global settings.
2. The Avatar load up is fine, but I loaded the wrong image and I could not change it. The only way to remove the avatar was to remove the whole testimonial and start again. POINTLESS! ==> in backend have the option to edit the testimonial. There you can change the Avatar. No need to create new one.. You can see the edit option here Components->JE testimonial-> Edit
3. There is no DATE on the Testimonials to say when they left the Testimonial, another BIG let down. ==> The date we stored in the database, If you need you can display the dates in testimonial.
4. The Video is also very strange. There is no text to show what you are supposed to do. I know how to add Youtube ETC, but many of the components at least have som text or a bubble box showing you what to do, but nothing....... Just bizarre. ==> Here nothing is complex, You can directly put the youtube link..
We also mentioned in JED, If you need any help, then please contact us before writing review in JED.
"Please do not use this reviews to post support requests or bug reports. Please contact us using support menu in our website."
The Module does what it says, but it is a slow and painstaking process to add in all of the 10 images and descriptions. The Module does not even have an image attachment process in the Module for each image.
Loading up and Saving to Publish.
You Assign The Module Positions to the pages that you want which is normal and then click publish which is great... but then when you want to actually put in all 10 images directly to the MODULE you cannot.
You need to click the image and take the description for the web link to be live and put it into notepad or word or whatever you use...Do that 10 TIMES and then go back to the Module and put in a description for each one so that it links through.
What a NIGHTMARE...... and a complete waste of my time and MONEY. I would steer clear of this if you want something fast and easy to use... this is not it.
Does exactly what it says on the tin.
Looks nice on Black Box, but others don't really look very good as it only works on a white template.
I loaded it onto a red, white and black template and only 1 of the module position styles worked, so a bit of work is needed here.
This has great potential and if a few tweaks are done it could be fantastic.

Great Peaceful Location
This cottage was the perfect location for us to visit our daughter who lives and works in the Kahala area of Oahu. But after arrival we found that it was perfect for more than just its close proximity to our daughter! The Kahala Beach Park is less than a 5 minute walk. There are several public beach access points within a very short walk as well. The Kahala Resort and Spa is a 5 minute drive and we had a lovely Sunday brunch there as well as a beautiful full moon-lit dinner there. The Kahala area is great for launching out for various activities. We hiked up Diamond Head, hiked down to Diamond Head beach, drove to Waikiki for shopping and beach (although I prefer the nearly deserted and peaceful Kahala Beach), drove to the North Shores, and drove to and spent the day snorkeling in Hanauma Bay! There are several restaurants near The Kahala Mall but our favorite is the Olive Tree Cafe which we frequented often for dinner - even walking there one evening! The Cafe is BYOB so don't forget to take your favorite bottle of wine with you when you go! As for the cottage itself, it matched it's description online very well. It is perfect for 2 people; it does have 2 beds but space might be tight for more than 3 people. We had an issue with the solar water heater keeping the water hot, but I contacted the owner and he immediately had someone come fix it and it remained hot the rest of the week. The cottage is part of a larger property in which the main house is also a rental. The main home was being rented at the same time as us but the only time we saw or heard the other renters was when we were parking our car. The cottage is very private. I hope to return and visit our daughter again next year and will rent this cottage again and have recommended it to other family who plan to visit!

I always thought that I would over think every part of my wedding. But who wants to do that? Not enjoy the planning and be to stressed out to enjoy the whole experience. Mary and her team took care of every worry and every question I had. I always left our meetings, and phone calls feeling calm and like everything would be taken care of.
She recommended great vendors, got great deals, and overall has a great relationship with the bride.
Dealing with a wedding that was 2 hours from civilization and that most people have never even heard of would be a challenge, but Mary acted like it was routine.
My number one advice on having a wedding? GET A PLANNER!
Best. Decision. Ever.

All the stress I was feeling trying to plan our wedding, was lifted in our first meeting. Our day was perfect, oh forgot to mention we had two weddings in one day. My wedding went smooth and I was able to enjoy my day and never know if we had any issues. If anyone is looking for a planner I would recommend Mary hands down. I am going to miss our meetings and hope all the best for her and her future. Love you, Mary!!!!

Rule #1 for planning a wedding...hire a planner!
Hiring Mary Douglas with Bringing it Together was the best decision I made for planning my wedding. As the wedding day drew near, I realized that I needed help with a lot of details that I didn't want to have to mess with, I realized that I didn't want to spend my wedding day or have my friends and family setting up and cleaning up, and I also didn't want to have to deal with vendors and the wedding day timeline the week of the wedding. This allowed for my wedding day and the entire planning process to be stress and worry free, and I was able to spend more quality time with family members and friends that were in town for the wedding. Mary Douglas is an expert with wedding planning, and she has a well trained team to help assist her. They didn't miss one detail. I would highly recommend Bringing it Together for your wedding planning!

Mary and her Team at Bringing it Together helped my husband and I plan the best day of our lives! As a first time bride, I had no clue how to plan a wedding. Who knew there were so many details to coordinate? I hired Mary for her "day of" services, but she went above and beyond and helped me before, during and after the wedding. We had several coffee dates leading up to the big day and she really took the time to get to know us and grasp our vision for the ceremony and reception. Throughout the planning process, Mary was in constant contact with both us and our wedding vendors. Our wedding day went off without a hitch thanks to Mary and her Team. If I could give future Brides any piece of advice it would be; hire a wedding planner, but not just anyone, hire Mary with Bringing it Together. She truly is the best!

Mary and her team at Bringing It Together were perfect! Reasonably priced and professional. We were in need of "day of" coordinating and they definitely came through, exceeding our expectations. My husband and I (parents too) were clueless when it came to things like scheduling the day, cutting the cake, how to walk down the aisle...Mary was by my side the entire way. She even helped bussel my wedding dress at the reception! Having a destination wedding was scary but she was always available to talk or text. She put up with all of my emails and was able make the dream wedding in my head a reality. The day could not have gone better!

Mary & Julia are such a good resource for a wedding! They were both so helpful and really helped me out whenever I had a question or an impasse with my mom & dad.

I am so glad that I had Mary's help on my wedding day because her staff took care of all the little details that I put so much work into. They also helped to solve potential catastrophes caused by my venue. They solved them so quickly and efficiently that I didn't even know about them until days after my wedding.

When we got engaged, it was important to both of us to have a wedding coordinator. However, we did not have a large budget to work with. We met with several wedding coordinators in the area and were not satisfied with them or their prices. We thought we were going to have to settle for something within our price range. But then, we found Mary and she was wonderful to work with and within our budget!! We booked her that day and have never regretted it! Leading up to the wedding she met with us and discussed our plans and gave us advice and recommendations for local vendors. The day of, they made sure every single detail I wanted to be included was there and it was perfect!! And to top it off, I did not have to lift a finger or stress a single second on my wedding day! Mary and the girls at Bringing It Together are amazing!! They made our dream wedding a reality! Without hesitation, I would recommend Bringing It Together to everyone!

Mary and Anna were absolutely wonderful. My wedding went very smoothly and they were there to make sure everything got taken care of. It's great to have a coordinator you can rely on, especially on the day of the wedding, I was definitely able to sit back and enjoy my wedding because I knew our wedding vendors were highly capable. If you have the opportunity to work with this company, take it, you won't be disappointed. :)

Before embarking on a national tour with Valley darlings Dear and The Headlights — one that ends with a swanky SxSW showcase — Phoenix's own Miniature Tigers will hone their craft at Modified Arts. A spot at SxSW seems like the natural progression for the band, fresh off their performance at the 2008 CMJ Music Marathon in October. Bearing the weight of raising the Valley's music scene on a national level is a task Miniature Tigers no doubt relish. Equipped with an effortless brand of alternative/indie rock, the quartet is lead by Charlie Brand's boyish vocals — the perfect complement to light, airy songs about cannibals, giraffes, and Tchaikovsky. A quick look at the band's MySpace reveals that they are just normal dudes who enjoy watching Lost. That persona shines through in songs like "The Wolf," a fun, rollicking ballad that smacks of Weezer — when that band was in their young, innocent years. Miniature Tigers aren't shooting for the artistic moon, and it's that attitude that makes their sound all the more perfect. Once SxSW gets a hold of the Tigers' sound, Valley music will be bolstered by their efforts.

Rise Of The Precariat: The New Working Class
The U.S. Government Stops Paying Dead People
The U.S. government sees dead people. Explains a lot. Mark S. Smith writes on the AP via Yahoo News:
… Read the rest
Here's an idea, Uncle Sam: Stop writing checks to dead people.
The government sent benefit checks to 20,000 departed Americans over three years, totaling more than $180 million — a remarkable number that provoked the Obama administration to create a government-wide "do not pay" list as part of its brainstorming for ways to save taxpayer money.
Once the database is up and running, agencies will have to search it before sending out payments. A pre-check check, so to speak.
"We're making sure that payments no longer go to the deceased — it sounds ridiculous even to say it," acknowledged Vice President Joe Biden in describing the database.
Also planned for inclusion: contractors who've fallen behind in their payments or, even worse, landed in jail, and companies that have been suspended or otherwise deemed ineligible for government work.

Americans, You Have the Worst Quality of Life in the Developed World — By a Wide Margin
Lance Freeman writes on Escape From America Magazine:
… Read the rest
Americans, I have some bad news for you:
You have the worst quality of life in the developed world — by a wide margin.
If you had any idea of how people really lived in Western Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and many parts of Asia, you'd be rioting in the streets calling for a better life. In fact, the average Australian or Singaporean taxi driver has a much better standard of living than the typical American white-collar worker.
I know this because I am an American, and I escaped from the prison you call home. I have lived all around the world, in wealthy countries and poor ones, and there is only one country I would never consider living in again: The United States of America. The mere thought of it fills me with dread.
Consider this, you are the only people in the developed world without a single-payer health system.
Apple iPad-Maker Foxconn Makes Employees Promise Not To Kill Themselves
The Sydney Morning Herald reports:
Apple manufacturer Foxconn was taking extraordinary measures to safeguard its business and workers following a spate of suicides at its sprawling plant in southern China.
Workers have reportedly been told to sign letters promising not to kill themselves and even agree to be institutionalised if they appeared to be in an "abnormal mental or physical state for the protection of myself and others".
Nets were also reportedly being hung around buildings to deter suicidal employees.
The moves came after a 19-year-old employee fell to his death at the Shenzhen factory — the ninth apparent suicide at the enormous site this year.
The deaths have raised questions about the conditions for millions of factory workers in China, especially at Foxconn, where labour activists and employees say long hours, low pay and high pressure are the norm.

Life In Foxconn: Undercover In The iPod Factories
A Chinese newspaper went undercover at a Foxconn factory, the production site for Western gadgets such as iPhones and iPods. The workers are an army of overworked, ill-treated, but optimistic twenty-year-olds whose existence is typical of many in China's young adult generation. Translation via Engadget:
… Read the rest
In front of a newly-opened phone shop, the sales assistant flashed an iPhone to the Foxconn employees, with everyone focused on his every "cool" gesture, as if it was something new. But actually every part of this "new" device would've come from the hands of these workers, except these guys had never thought of owning the final product. And now, this whole thing is right in front of their eyes with a "smashing price of ¥2,198 ($322)" — just above their monthly pay.
This super factory that holds some 400,000 people isn't the "sweatshop" that most would imagine. It provides accommodation that reaches the scale of a medium-sized town, all smooth and orderly.
Times Square Bomb: The Right's Nuttiest Theory
Was the recent incident in Times Square an attempt to demonize the labor and environmental movements? Mother Jones reports:
… Read the rest
This much we know: A US citizen born in Pakistan has been arrested for allegedly parking a Nissan Pathfinder in Times Square Saturday night, loaded with fertilizer that doesn't combust, a kid's alarm clock that likely didn't tick, several gallons of gas, some propane tanks, and a few M80 firecrackers.
Attorney General Eric Holder has released a statement saying Shahzad was "taken into custody at JFK Airport in New York as he attempted to board a flight to Dubai." There's a lot we have yet to learn about what this news means, but it probably rules out one favorite conservative theory about the attempted bombing — that left-wing protesters took advantage of May Day (aka International Workers' Day) to make a big bang in New York's neon-soaked seat of capitalism.
Work Kills More People Than War
Another chapter from my book, 50 Things You're Not Supposed to Know, published in 2003, by Disinfo.
For more on me, please check out The Memory Hole.
The United Nations' International Labor Organization has revealed some horrifying stats:
… Read the rest
The ILO estimates that approximately two million workers lose their lives annually due to occupational injuries and illnesses, with accidents causing at least 350,000 deaths a year. For every fatal accident, there are an estimated 1,000 non-fatal injuries, many of which result in lost earnings, permanent disability and poverty.
The death toll at work, much of which is attributable to unsafe working practices, is the equivalent of 5,000 workers dying each day, three persons every minute. This is more than double the figure for deaths from warfare (650,000 deaths per year). According to the ILO's SafeWork programme, work kills more people than alcohol and drugs together and the resulting loss in Gross Domestic Product is 20 times greater than all official development assistance to the developing countries.

Jake Early T-shirts Available!Fri, 10/17/2014 - 9:50am | by Nicole Romain
SUPPORT THE CAUSE! Get this limited edition T-shirt, designed by local Chico Artist, Jake Early! T-shirts are only $20 and proceeds benefit Clean & Safe efforts in Downtown Chico.
T-shirts available at Slice of Chico on Saturday, July 12th (booth located at 3rd & Broadway), at the Thursday Night Market (headquarter booth located at 3rd & Broadway) and at the DCBA office - 330 Salem Street.
On February 1, 2014 the DCBA took under its wings the Downtown Ambassador Program and the Jesus Center Clean-Up Brigade. Funds are needed to continue to support these two difference making programs.
The mission of the Downtown Ambassador Program is to create a more welcoming downtown environment for the Chico community. The Downtown Ambassadors is a citizen engagement opportunity where volunteers contribute to a clean and safe downtown. Ambassadors act as eyes and ears for public safety and social service partners by educating, assisting, and reporting as needed on various needs and problems.
Performing cleaning services in the downtown corridor, two hours a day, six days a week, the Jesus Center Clean-Up Brigade not only keeps downtown clean, it also gives hope! The Brigade, consisting of four Jesus Center clients, has brought the group into contact with many business owners, community members and other homeless people.
The Brigade exemplifies how collaboration among community groups such as the Jesus Center, the Downtown Chico Business Association and the North Valley Community Foundation can produce programs that simultaneously keep people off the streets and serve the community.
