s***s and giggles paid off :) *pix*
So, a friend of my mom's is a real estate agent. She told her about a condo for $80k close to her house. I did an estimate, and thought it *might* be less a month than we pay in rent.
For shits and giggles we met with her. And omg... It is! We'd save SO much money and we'd OWN it!! And its beautiful. We're going to view it in a day or two, then see if we can get approved for the loan.
My fingers are crossed!!!

Columbia Co. sheriff's deputies search for shooter
Updated On: Jul 05 2014 03:52:45 PM EDT
Deputies in Columbia County are investigating a double shooting early Saturday morning outside the Elks Lodge in Lake City.
The Sheriff's Office says an argument between two unknown women and a single man began in the club at closing time. Deputies say the on-sight security guard attempted to separate the people involved and escorted them outside the club on N.E. Washington Street about 2:30 a.m.
Authorities say once outside, the guard fell to the ground during a struggle. The suspect, 29-year-old Robert Church, reportedly went to a vehicle in the parking lot, retrieved a handgun and returned. Deputies say Church shot the guard once and fled the area.
The guard, whose name was not given, was transported to UF Shands in Gainesville by ambulance, where his condition is currently unknown. The bullet that passed through the guard also stuck a woman bystander. She was taken by her husband to Lake Shore Hospital and she was later transferred to UF Shands.
The Columbia County Sheriff's Office has issued a lookout for Church and is actively seeking his location. He is described as 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighing 235 pounds.
If anyone has information on Church's whereabouts or this shooting, contact the Sheriff's Office at 386-719-2005 or Crime Stoppers of Columbia County at 386-754-7099

Firefighters found 14 boats engulfed in flames when they arrived at the fire at Lake Union Skylaunch Marina shortly after 10 p.m. on Thursday.
"This spread quickly but with heroic effort of Seattle Boat Company staff, we have prevented a much worse potential circumstance," said Alan Bohling, CEO, Seattle Boat Company. "We are thankful for an outstanding team who reacted professionally and quickly in this extraordinary circumstance."
There were no reports of injuries. Damage is estimated at $1.5 million.
Authorities say the fire was under control in about 10 minutes. The cause is under investigation, but Bohling said in a news release that "we believe that an errant firework from the hillside above landed inside a Skylaunch vessel."

Overall: 4.7 / 5 based on 18 reviews
17 of 18 reviewers would recommend this product to a friend.
By: BryceA from Kirkland, WA
Bought this for my 9'6" 6wt fast action rod. Nice upgrade over my worn generic brand line. Loads nicely and shoots superbly. I also prefer the muted yellow color over common bright green lines. 4 stars only because I cannot comment on long-term use.
3rd one -
By: waynej from live in wisconsin fish here and western rivers
Top 1000 Contributor
used them on the original Helios and on my new Helios 2 they make loading the rod a dream. Float well and cast long.
disappointed -
By: CM22
this line was recommended by my Orvis fly shop to use with my fast action rod.The line casts very well, However the tip does not float. Treating the tip with the recommended floatant did not remedy this problem. i will need to puchase another fly line. I do not recommend this line.
Takes MPH off the wind. -
By: DMILLER from Sweet Home, OR
Top 100 Contributor
Has helped me with distance and accuracy as I learn to cast well. Wind is not as big a problem for me anymore.
Great Value and Performance -
By: Crowbait from Loysville, PA
The slick surface and "Power Taper" allow longer casts with precise placement requiring less power from the rod. Great choice of line for beginner to seasoned fishers. You will not be disappointed.
Much better than the competitors! -
By: Gesj from Central NJ
Had previously been using a 4 Weight DT from a competitor for small stream trout. I bought the hydros in 5 weight to overline my 4 weight rod for bass on hot summer days. What a difference in the hydros! Incredibly smooth action which loads very easily and great for punching out big flies and poppers. Money well spent.
Power Taper on a fast rod -
By: Otter11 from Nebraska
I was using a regular line on a competitor's rod and was ready to sell the entire package. This was a very fast rod and I was have a tough time feeling it load. I put on the Hydros Power Taper and it's like buying a whole new rod! I can't recommend this line enough for fast action rods!
Great line -
By: sffisherman from San Francisco
Very slick easy casting line. Shoots through the guides. I ordered this line spooled on to an Access reel in 6wt and it really casts easily.
This is my go to line. -
By: heo9542 from San Diego, CA
Top 500 Contributor
You can cast heavy flies a mile with this line. There is also no doubt when this line loads the rod. This is my number one bass line.
Super Taper -
By: JohnJon from Grand Lake Stream, ME
Have used this power Taper all season with a Helois rod. This combination is unbeatable. Made this purchase as a back-up.

Washington - Orders to US factories fell in January 2014 for a second straight month but a key category that signals business investment plans rebounded. That could be an indication that businesses are becoming more confident.
Factory orders dipped 0.7% in January, the US Commerce Department reported. That followed an even bigger 2% decline December 2013, which was a larger decrease than first reported and the biggest decline since July. The weakness in both months was led by large declines in demand for commercial aircraft.
Orders for core capital goods, a proxy for business investment, rose 1.5% in January, recovering after a 1.6% drop in December.
Demand for durable goods, items expected to last at least three years, were down 1% in January while non-durable goods orders slipped 0.4%.
The estimate for durable goods was unchanged from a preliminary report. The weakness reflected a 20.2% plunge in orders for commercial aircraft, a drop that followed an even bigger 22.3% fall in December. Orders for motor vehicles and parts fell 0.9%, the second straight decline. Analysts say weakness in this area will be reversed given expectations for continued gains in new car sales.
Orders for primary metals such as iron, steel and aluminum, dropped 1.2% while demand for machinery was down 0.7% and computer orders fell 46%.
Many economists say that manufacturing has gone through a soft patch but will be emerging to stronger growth in coming months.
That expectation is based on the view that the overall economy, after slowing in the final three months of last year and the first quarter this year, will rebound to stronger growth. Many economists are forecasting that the economy, as measured by the gross domestic product, could expand at an annual rate of around 3% in 2014, up significantly from last year's 1.9% gain.
Last year, growth was held back by higher taxes which dampened consumer demand and across-the-board spending cuts by the federal government. It is estimated those two factors cut growth by about 1.5 percentage points. However, those adverse impacts are now waning. With the labour market expected to keep expanding, the hope is that growth will reach the fastest pace since before the 2007-2009 recession.
The Institute for Supply Management, a group of purchasing managers, reported that its closely watched manufacturing gauge rose to 53.2 in February 2014, up from 51.3 in January.
The increase only partly reversed a five-point drop in January, but economists were encouraged that the direction was positive. Any reading above 50 indicates manufacturing is expanding.
For February, the index rose in part because of an increase in both new and backlogged orders. There was strength in other areas as well. Four of the 18 industries that are tracked by the survey reported growth.

Sworn Brother(2005)
(The second book in the Viking series)
A novel by Tim Severin
The thrilling second volume in the Viking trilogy - an epic adventure in a world full of Norse mythology and bloodthirsty battles London, 1020: few weeks have passed since Thorgils has escaped the clutches of the Irish Church only to find himself at the center of a capricious love affair with Aelfgifu, wife of Knut the Great, ruler of England, and one of the most powerful men of the Viking empire. A passionate relationship between two unlikely lovers begins to unfold, which forebodes uncontrollable consequences...When Thorgils is finally on the run again, he meets Grettir, an outlaw who is feared by most for his volatile and brooding behaviour. The two men become travel companions and sworn brothers - which binds them together beyond death. At the gates of Byzantium Thorgils' loyalty is put to the ultimate test...Sworn Brother continues an utterly compelling journey back in time to a world that is brimming with wonderfully crafted characters and their insatiable hunger for barbaric war and expansion.

text: 23 year old Dahae Choi's black floral dress from ASOS is an absolute corker. Not only does it nod to this season's flower-full phenomenon, but that short-front-long-back silhouette nails the thigh-split-for-day mantra we're so keen on, too. Added to that, her must-have Swedish Hasbeens for H&M (yes, the SJP ones), cat-eye sunnies and supersize simple tote have summer'11 stamped all over them. We're proud of you Dahae, this outfit rocks. But what do you like about her outfit? We simply MUST know your thoughts! Remember, the most fabulous comments could get printed in Grazia magazine.

In case there's any doubt about Polly Vernon's "What She Wore" column in Grazia, we can verify that yes, the fashion items our Editor-at-Large models each week really are her own recent purchases (not that we spy on Polly and the contents of her shopping bags or anything, definitely not). Unfortunately, in this week's issue we got so over-excited about Polly's fashion fix that we hopelessly miscredited it: that superchic navy jersey jumpsuit actually comes from Whistles, (and not DVF) for £195.
For those of you who have been waiting for a Jumpsuit Update here it is: since Polly was photographed, the jumpsuit has been worn to a swanky book launch, where; "it went down very well actually. And boys quite like it! It's quite fitted on the arse – can you say that on Grazia Daily? [yes, Polly] - so boys do "get" it, which is quite surprising, for a jumpsuit..AND I bumped into Jane Shepherdson [Whistles' Chief Executive] when I was wearing it!"
And THAT'S why she's our Editor-at-Large, ladies.

Webster Dictionary
the state of being addicted; devotion; inclination
Addiction is the continued use of a mood altering substance or behavior despite adverse consequences, or a neurological impairment leading to such behaviors. Addictions can include, but are not limited to, drug abuse, exercise addiction, food addiction, sexual addiction, computer addiction, and gambling. Classic hallmarks of addiction include impaired control over substances or behavior, preoccupation with substance or behavior, continued use despite consequences, and denial. Habits and patterns associated with addiction are typically characterized by immediate gratification, coupled with delayed deleterious effects. Physiological dependence occurs when the body has to adjust to the substance by incorporating the substance into its 'normal' functioning. This state creates the conditions of tolerance and withdrawal. Tolerance is the process by which the body continually adapts to the substance and requires increasingly larger amounts to achieve the original effects. Withdrawal refers to physical and psychological symptoms experienced when reducing or discontinuing a substance that the body has become dependent on. Symptoms of withdrawal generally include but are not limited to anxiety, irritability, intense cravings for the substance, nausea, hallucinations, headaches, cold sweats, and tremors.

More Original Refrigerator Art
Personal vision, seldom objective
The poster announces a memorial concert for a local musician who had died in his home on the night of August 18. He was 30. His mother had died the previous January, at the age of 52, and he had gotten married in April.
The news and social media never seem to want to talk about the how or why.
The smallest sign reads "Rapid Release Equipped".
And two young men walking by were wondering why that old man was taking a picture of the sidewalk.

55 Al-Qaeda militants killed in Abyan airstrikes: Yemen
By Mohamed al-Samei, Monday, April 21, 2014
SANAA – A total of 55 Al-Qaeda militants, including three senior leaders, have been killed in airstrikes in the southern Abyan province, Yemen's Interior Ministry said Monday.
In a statement, the ministry said that "Arab and foreign terrorists" had been among those killed in Sunday's airstrikes.
Al-Qaeda militants remain active in several parts of southern Yemen, from where they continue to stage sporadic attacks on army and police targets.
Yemen has been dogged by turmoil since pro-democracy protests in 2011 forced autocratic president Ali Abdullah Saleh to step down after 33 years in office.
In the three years since, authorities have struggled to restore law and order to the restive southern Arabian country.

Skybird Lyrics - Neil Diamond
Review The Song (1)
make your sail
and every heart will know
of the tale
(And head for the farthest shore!)
make your tune
for none may sing it
just as you do
(And let your song be heard!)
Look at the way I glide
caught on the wind's lazy tide
sweetly how it sings
rally each heart at the sight
of your silver wings
Skybird, skybird
find your way
for none may know it
just as you may
(Seek out your harbor of light!)
(Let your song be heard!)
(Rally each heart to the sign of your silver wings!)

Education and training is one of the department's principal mandates, and is achieved by providing a stimulating, research-intensive environment in which students can develop and thrive. The uniqueness of the department's resources provides an opportunity for interdisciplinary training in cold ocean research, whether it is related to physiology, biochemistry and molecular biology; biological and chemical oceanography; behavioral and population ecology; or aquaculture and fisheries.
Minor in Sustainable Aquaculture and Fisheries Ecology
Welcome to the Department of Ocean Sciences. The Department is located at the Ocean Sciences Centre (OSC) in Logy Bay, which is approximately 15km from the main campus.
There are few who know the waters around Fogo Island better than the men and women who turn to it every day for their livelihood.
A project just getting underway at Memorial University is hoping to draw on that knowledge.
Ocean Ambassadors: David Belanger
David Belanger has seen the wonder and amazement on people's faces when they get their first up-close look at the North Atlantic marine environment.
"You see them hold something like a sea star, which is a very common organism. They say, 'Wow! We have these here?' Then they're full of questions. In fifteen minutes you can change their entire perspective on the ocean."

KRL system down while launching new online catalog April 26April 4th, 2012 at 9:13 am by Richard D. Oxley
Kitsap library users will have only limited access to the KRL catalog from Sunday, April 22 through Wednesday, April 25 as the library system transitions to its new integrated library system (ILS) software. The new system software from Polaris Library Systems has been scheduled to go live April 26.
During the four days of the transfer, the KRL catalog will not be accessible. No holds will be able to be placed on items in the catalog during that four-day period. Patrons will not be able to access their library account records to see when the materials they have checked out are due, to renew items they've borrowed or to check on fines and fees they may owe.
Staff from KRL and Polaris have already moved data from the existing system into the new one and have been testing the new system to make sure the transition later this month will go smoothly.
KRL has created a web page with some Frequently Asked Questions about the transition to the new ILS.
The April 22-25 transition period is to allow KRL to transfer all current records from the existing ILS to the new system.
KRL Board Elects New Officers
At its regular monthly meeting on March 27, the Kitsap Regional Library Board of Trustees elected John Lyall to be the Board's next president and Jackie Aitchison to be the next vice president. Both will assume their duties at the April Board meeting.
Lyall, the Board's Bremerton representative, has served as a trustee since Oct. 1, 2007, when he was appointed to fill a vacancy on the Board. He is retired after a career first in human resources (including a stint as the HR Director of Seattle Public Library) and then real estate.
Aitchison, the North Kitsap representative, has served on the Board since Jan. 1, 2004. She formerly served as a Poulsbo City Council member and has been very active in promoting farmer's markets in Kitsap County and across the state.
The KRL Board of Trustees is appointed by the Kitsap County Commissioners. The Board's five members represent the five school district regions of the county: Bainbridge, North Kitsap, Central Kitsap, Bremerton and South Kitsap. Board members are appointed to five-year terms and are limited to serving two terms or up to 10 years on the board.
The Board's other members are: Dan Gottlieb of Bainbridge Island, Gail Mathison of South Kitsap and Teresa McDermott of Central Kitsap.
A Look at KRL's Collection
Kitsap Regional Library plans to spend about $1,165,000 in 2012 on its collection, about 11 percent of its overall budget.
Part of that money goes to subscribe to special research databases that librarians and the public can use in a variety of ways to get information they need for their work, businesses or education, or to research things like family history or learn a foreign language.
But the bulk of the collections budget is used to buy new items that can be borrowed by library users.
For 2012, the library expects to spend about 62 percent of the collection budget on books and magazines; about 14 percent of the budget on downloadable ebooks, audiobooks and music; and about 12 percent of the collection on physical media (music on CDs; video on DVDs).
The demand for downloadable materials is growing at incredible speed. Ebook downloads at KRL in 2011 totaled 23,204, a 374 percent increase over 2010. If the trend for the first three months of 2012 continues, a similar increase in ebook downloads will be experienced in 2012. In the first two and a half months of the year, total downloads were nearly half of the total for the entire year in 2011.
Kindle ebooks now make up half the downloadable ebooks borrowed from KRL. Books for Kindles only became available for library users in the fourth quarter of 2011.
This is an interesting trend well worth watching over the next 18 months.
City plan amendments, Urban Paths plan discussed tonight at public hearingMarch 13th, 2012 at 9:53 am by Richard D. Oxley
The City of Poulsbo is holding a public workshop and hearing tonight to discuss the Comprehensive Plan amendments. Many of the amendments are "text amendments," such as updating Waterfront Park to Muriel Iverson Williams Waterfront Park. The amendments also include four properties that have been acquired by the city as park space, re-designating them from residential or commercial to park.
The city also plans to formally adopt the Urban Paths of Poulsbo plan into the Comprehensive Plan. For future planning purposes, such as grant applications, the city is adopting the plan with some trails still designated as 'proposed' — those trails that cross private property that the city has not yet finalized.
Parks and Recreation Director Mary McCluskey said those paths on private property, shown in pink on the map, are "desired future connection points."
"We want to connect A to B," she said. However, the city cannot and has no intention of "taking" private property. Instead, the city has been working with private owners to create easements for the trail. McCluskey stressed the pink lines can only become trails through the property owner's willingness.
The public hearing will begin at 7 p.m., in the Council Chambers of City Hall, 200 NE Moe St.
The Comprehensive Plan staff reports can be found here and information on tonight's meeting can be found here. The Urban Paths plan can be found here and the proposed map can be found here.
Fine-free day at Kitsap librariesMarch 12th, 2012 at 5:34 pm by Richard D. Oxley
In honor of the Bainbridge Public Library Building's 50th Anniversary, all branches of Kitsap Regional Library will offer forgiveness on overdue fines for items returned on Saturday, March 17.
Poulsbo Library is located at 700 NE Lincoln Road. It is open Mondays 1-8 p.m., Tuesday-Wednesdays 10 a.m. – 8 p.m., Thursdays 1-5 p.m., Fridays 10 a.m. – 6 p.m., Saturdays 10 a.m. – 5 p.m., and closed Sundays.
Overdue fines will be waived for any item returned to a KRL branch or the bookmobile that day. Outstanding fines for items returned earlier, fees for lost items or fees assessed on items that have been referred to a collection agency will not be waived.
Because KRL sets $5 as the maximum overdue fine, the maximum savings possible to a library patron would be $5 per item returned.
The goal of the amnesty day is to encourage the return of overdue library materials. Generally speaking, KRL would rather have overdue items returned than have to collect a replacement fee and buy a new item.
In addition to helping the entire system celebrate the Bainbridge Library anniversary, it will also help KRL remove overdue fines from patron accounts prior to transferring our user records to the new Integrated Library System software that will go live April 26.
"As we move to a new Integrated Library System the end of April, we want both our user and collection records to be a clean as possible," said Carol Schuyler, Director of Support Services. "To be able to combine this with a celebration of our Bainbridge Branch is a wonderful opportunity."
KRL encourages patrons who have overdue items from the library to search your house for missing library books, magazines, DVDs or CDs so you can bring them in on March 17.
Council meeting videos available onlineMarch 2nd, 2012 at 9:44 am by Richard D. Oxley
The Poulsbo City Council is now available anytime, anywhere…provided you have an internet connection. Mayor Becky Erickson announced today that past council meetings will available as video for review on the city's website.
"Ultimately, we would like to stream our council meeting live on the web as well as televising them on BKAT," Erickson said in a statement. "The public should always have the ability to see their government in action."
The city council meets the first three Wednesdays of the month at 7 p.m. at City Hall (200 NE Moe St.), and airs live on public access station BKAT (Bremerton Kitsap Access Television). Erickson said they will "try to get [the video] up within 24 hours" of the meeting.
The videos are accessible from the city website, under Community Resources. Check them out here.
AG: Poulsbo Port commissioner was ineligible for appointmentFebruary 25th, 2012 at 1:15 pm by Richard D. Oxley
While the Attorney General's opinion is a sitting commissioner cannot be appointed to another board position during his term, the issue has never been brought up in Washington state courts, continuing to add uncertainty to the Port of Poulsbo's predicament.
Newly elected Commissioner Jim Rutledge asked for the state Attorney General's opinion after questions arose on Commissioner Arnold Bockus' appointment to a vacancy before his elected term ended, leading to animosity on the commission.
Because the commission is small — three seats — when Bockus lost his bid for re-election in November and Commissioner Glenn Gilbert resigned right before the election, Commission Chair Tony DeCarlo wanted to fill Gilbert's vacancy as soon as possible. After a three-week application period, in which only an applicant from Silverdale applied (outside port boundaries, disqualified), Bockus stepped forward.
What the concern is for Rutledge, and a few members of the public, is how legal it was for Bockus to have been appointed before his term expired, and that he voted for himself.
DeCarlo said that after consulting with the port attorney, he alone could not appoint or vote for a commissioner; that task would go to the County Commission. With two sitting commissioners until Dec. 31, he and Bockus appointed Bockus to Gilbert's former position.
"Two of us voted, and [Bockus] voted for himself, and that's where the rub lies, I guess," DeCarlo said.
The port's attorney, Greg Norbut, said the opinion leaves the situation "up in the air."
"It's not case specific, it doesn't even note the fact [the port had] only one applicant," Norbut said. "It takes a hypothetical situation."
Norbut said he has not discussed further action with the commission, but his impression is any legislative action would be taken up by Rep. Sherry Appleton, who requested the AG opinion on behalf of Rutledge.
DeCarlo, however, is not uncertain: the Attorney General's informal opinion on the legality of the case does not change the circumstances for him. In the informal opinion, Christopher Lanese, assistant attorney general, cited a common law public policy principle that a sitting commissioner is ineligible for appointment if the appointment is made during the commissioner's term.
The opinion cited several different court cases, all pointing to a different solution, but DeCarlo specified a Florida case in 2009, which ruled no "prohibition against appointing bodies appointing its own members to positions."
No Washington case or statute has directly addressed this issue. The opinion stated there have been no developments in Washington law that says a court would follow the public policy principle; because of this, the opinion also states legislation would have to address this subject to clarify these questions.
Recycling: Poulsbo Library offers used book saleFebruary 8th, 2012 at 3:06 pm by Richard D. Oxley

Poulsbo PD strengthens countywide agency agreementFebruary 7th, 2012 at 3:16 pm by Richard D. Oxley
Swiney said the Kitsap County Incident Response Team Agreement was spurred by the state Mutual Aid Police Officers Powers Act.
"The change [will be] more of a collaborative, organized effort with the involved agencies to ensure standard operating procedures…post incident," Swiney said.
Poulsbo Police Department will be providing Det. David Gesell with additional training as a part of this cross-county team. The agreement is between Washington State Patrol, Bainbridge Island, Port Orchard, Bremerton and Poulsbo police departments. All agencies currently have an agreement with the Kitsap County Sheriff's Department, which while it not in this new agreement, will continue to provide assistance and response when needed.
"As small as we are, I really appreciate the other jurisdictions…[that have been] receptive to the needs [Poulsbo has]," Swiney said.

Been a while since I heard something like this...
Honestly, I'm impressed. And very, very confused...
Normally, something as heavy as this would get annoying, or at the very least give me a headache. HOWEVER, you have pulled off a marvelous mix of the hard sounds of a true industrial song and a trance vibe, for lack of a better word.
Now, I WILL admit, there are some aspects about it that could be different. Personally, I think that the song goes from kickass to kind of suck to kickass to kind of suck very quickly. You have too much going on at one time in a lot of parts of the song, and it makes it sound messy. The parts where you keep it simpler sound so much better than when it's cluttered with noise. With the way that you were making the song, it needs to be calmer.
And then again, at the very end, there's ne real point to the noises that happen to fade it out. It just makes the ending messy, and takes the listener away from the hardcore experience that they were having during the rest of the song.
Then there were the parts in the middle of the song that were... eh...
This song would be a 9 or even a 10 in my book, ifonly the bad parts were located in one area for critiquing. However, because the bad parts are kinda shuffled into the deck with the rest of the good cards, it has to get lower.
Now, to comment on the good parts.
I enjoy very much many parts of the song, although it's hard to describe whih ones in text (otherwise, I'd be going "oh, the part where it goes DUN DUNDUN DUN DUUUUUUUN DUNDUNDUN DUN" all over the place)
As I said before, though, the best parts of the song are the simplest parts, with what you were trying to go for here. The begining was great, and right before the overly drawn out ending was awesome. There were random smatterings in the middle that were great. The tone was enjoyable, and even someoone who wasn't into the hard sounds of industrial could find this a pleasurable song. Overall, it was good.
And yet, at the same time...
I'm not entirely sure, to be honest! Keep up the good confusing work. 8 and 5
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Really good song, keep up the good work!
I really liked the mood, it would be terrific to have some vocals though ;)

DKI Review for Thundersocks
The piece is catchy, and well mixxed. I has great low end and good high and mids and was mastered down well. I like the choice of synths, and notes used for the piece. Its raw but at the same time its not and it makes for intresting contrasts. Well done! its got a 10 from me! Don't mind me if I dance to this for a while!
