> wait ... this seems to be similar to the problem i have with my hdsp ...
I will try to next week. Right now I am in a bind until this coming Sunday. I will let you know as soon as I am done.
I would encourage you to hold off for a couple months, of course if you can afford to wait. It took me literally a good year on my old Inspiron 8000 (later replaced for 8100) before most of the quirks were resolved on it (both Win32 and Linux-side). This is pretty much the case with most of the new technology. For instance my newest toy, the aforementioned m6807 by eMachines has been on the market for barely 2 months and it is in dire need of a BIOS update. Hopefully one will be released by eMachines (although I am a bit skeptical about this one as most of their other products don't have such low-level updates available), but if not, there are plenty of other resellers that might since this model is being rebranded by over half-dozen companies across the world.
Absolutely! Looking forward to meeting you!
Thanks :-)

Missing Cumbrian girl turns up at police station
Last updated at 08:18, Tuesday, 12 June 2012
A schoolgirl missing from home for five days turned up at a Cumbrian police station last night.
Shannon Turnbull, 14, had not been seen since she disappeared from her home in Harriston, Aspatria, on Wednesday.
But at about midnight yesterday, she went to Workington Police Station.
Officers were speaking to her to establish where she had been.
Her worried mum had yesterday pleaded for her to come back home.
Police said they had been "extremely" concerned for her welfare.
Mum Moira Kindness said: "We just want her to come home. She has never gone away for so long. Shannon is a teenager – they take strops, but usually come back after an hour or so. We never expected this at all."
Both Shannon's mum and police said it was out of character for Shannon to be away for so long. The pupil of Maryport's Netherhall School, who has connections to Carlisle and Workington, is not a frequent runaway.
As travellers left Appleby horse fair, police asked them to contact them immediately if they saw Shannon or anyone who matched her description.
Sergeant Annette McClement said: "We are extremely concerned for Shannon's welfare. She is 14 and because of her age she is vulnerable. Staying away from home for this length of time is out of character for her and her family and police want to know that she is safe and well."
Friends of Shannon made online appeals via Facebook for information on her whereabouts.
They posted different photos of the teenager, asking for the community's help to track her down.
Sgt McClement added: "She has friends in the Maryport, Workington and Carlisle areas so we are appealing to anyone who sees Shannon or knows of her whereabouts to get in touch with us and encourage Shannon to do the same."

Cervix treatment - cryosurgery
Cervix cryosurgery is a surgical treatment to freeze and destroy abnormal tissue in the cervix.
- Alternative Names
Cervix surgery; Cryosurgery - female
- Description
Cryotherapy is an office procedure done while you are awake. The vaginal canal is held open so that the doctor can see the cervix. The doctor inserts a device called a cryoprobe into the vagina, and places it firmly on the surface of the cervix, covering the abnormal tissue.
Freezing cold compressed nitrogen gas flows through the instrument, making the metal cold enough to freeze and destroy the tissue.
An "ice ball" forms on the cervix, killing the abnormal cells. For the treatment to be most effective, the freezing is done for 3 minutes, the cervix is allowed to thaw, then the freezing is repeated for another 3 minutes.
Although you may have slight cramping, cryosurgery is relatively painless.
- Why the Procedure Is Performed
Uses of cryosurgery include:
- Treatment of cervicitis
- Treatment of cervical dysplasia
Your doctor will help you to decide if cryosurgery is right for your condition.
- Risks
Risks for any surgery are:
- Bleeding
- Infection
Other risks include:
- Scarring (cervical stenosis), which may make it more difficult to get pregnant, or cause increased cramping with menstrual periods. However, cryosurgery causes very little scarring.
- After the Procedure
- Outlook (Prognosis)
You can resume almost all of your normal activities right after surgery. You may need to avoid sexual intercourse, as well as douching, for several weeks. For 2 - 3 weeks after the surgery, you will have a lot of watery discharge caused by the shedding (sloughing) of the dead cervical tissue.
You might feel light-headed right after the procedure. If this happens, lie down flat on the examination table so that you do not faint. This feeling should go away in a few minutes.
Review Date: 2/19/2008

Photos and Description of this 2 bedroom holiday cabin in Palmer - Cabin in the woods
2 Bdrm,1 Bath On The Side Of The Mountain With 180 Degree View Of The Mountains
From Palmer the drive to the cabin in the woods is 7 miles of paved roads. On your way you might want to stop at the scenic pull out just a couple of miles from Palmer and take in the Matanuska River and the Knik River valley. On a clear day you will see the Knik glacier. Don't forget your camera.
The cabin in the woods is located on 5 rural acres with a short drive up the mountain to the cabin. The cabin is all log . One bedroom, large living room, spacious kitchen and bathroom in 576 sq ft. Tastefully furnished yet rustic. The kitchen has full size appliances and is well stocked with everything you will need except for food. The bedroom has a queen size bed. The deck out front looks out over the valley and is covered with clear panels to let in all the light. It is 10' by 24' and features a gas grill, table and chairs for 4 and lots of extra room for folding deck chairs. Also available for your use should the day be blustery, a propane deck heater full of fuel and ready to go. Beside the deck is a fire pit well stocked with wood.
Our location in the famous Matanuska Valley gives you a centralized yet rural location to start your exploration of the great state of Alaska starting from the spacious front covered deck. The view stretches from the Knik River valley in the east , scans all the way along the Chugach Mountain Range including 3300foot(1005 meters) high Pioneer Peak to the Cook Inlet and far off Anchorage in the South West. From the Muskox farm just 15 minutes down the road to beautiful Hatcher Pass and its Historic hard rock gold mines to the Pioneer Museum in downtown Palmer you will run out of time before you run out of things to see and do. A 1 hour drive north up the Glenn Highway(hwy 1) is some of the most spectacular scenery the road system has to offer. At the end of that hour you will be at the Matanuska Glacier for the photo op of a lifetime. A must do drive. On the way back don't forget to stop off at Sheep Mtn. lodge for a wonderful meal. Be sure and glass the mountain peaks behind the lodge for its namesake, Dall sheep.
An hour the opposite direction is the eagle river nature center amid towering peaks on three sides. Walking trails will take you into the heart of this beautiful valley. If you haven't had enough hiking on the way back you can drive up the mountain to Thunderbird falls(a short hike) and beautiful Eklutna lake, the main source of Anchorages drinking water.
Driving north on the Parks Highway (hwy 3) is also scenic with lots of places to stop and take pictures. The turnoff to Talkeetna is 2 hrs from the cabin. If it is a clear day the trip into Talkeetna could yield a fantastic view of Mt McKinley from the pull out just before you start down the hill into town. Once back out to the main highway continue north and look for the pull out once you have crossed Hurricane Gulch. This 1050 ft (320 meters) span is a breathtaking 254 feet(77 meters) above the white water of Hurricane Creek. Another 63 miles will put you at the turnoff to Denali Park. This is a long day trip so as evening approaches, even though the sun doesn't set until close to midnight be on the look out for moose and caribou on the way home.

About Robert Ham
Robert moved to Alaska in 1982 and settled in the Valley in 1997. Robert built this cabin himself in 1998. He lives on the property in a separate residence year round.
Robert Ham purchased this cabin in 1997
Why Robert Ham chose Palmer
When I purchased this property it was undeveloped. I had one thing in mind as I looked for my future home location. It had to have a view. So I drove to the location, got out and started hiking up the mountain. When I found a large flat spot among heavy timber I knew I was high enough to have a view but I couldn't see through the trees. I knew if I did enough clearing I would have that Alaskan view I had been dreaming of for so many years. I bought the property, built a driveway and cleared a site for my little log home.
What makes this cabin unique
I can ride my 4 wheeler or snowmobile from my home to miles of trails in the mountains behind the cabin. Moose are seen all year round so pay attention every time you walk out the door. You might get the surprise of your life standing in the driveway. The quiet is something I cherish. The cabin is high enough above the valley floor to sit on the covered deck and watch the storm cells move across the valley. It is a wonderful feeling to sit under the deck cover when it is raining, all warm and dry and watch the day go by.

No. Phoenix Mexican Called "Luna" Something or other???
- p
- personalcheffie Aug 1, 2006 07:10 PM
I will be visiting friends in Peoria at the end of the month, and ate at a wonderful Mexican place years ago in North Phoenix. All I remember is Luna in the name of the restaurant. Does anyone know which one I am speaking of? Thanks in advance.
You are probably thinking of Valle Luna- I am not sure if the place still holds up. I would recommend the following
1. Los Sombreros- this is not a cheese crisp and chips and salsa type of place but trust me, go.
2. Rosie's Place 23rd Street and Mcdowell. Wonderful, Clean and did I mentione Wonderful Mexican.
4. Ranch Market- 16th Street and Roosevelt- Mexican style market but there food court is outstanding!!!!! Best Carne Asada taco's I have had outside of Mexico.
3. Richardson's New Mexican Cuisine- 16th and Bethany Home
4. A chain option that I do love from time to time if Arriba, many throughout the Valley
If you need more suggestions for Mexican check out the southwestboard. Enjoy your stay and happy eating.
Valle Luna is the only Mexican food place I know that has Luna in the name. Leanne is correct that there are better choices.
I also recommend:
Pepe's Taco Villa (21st Ave. & Camelback)
El Bravo for Green Corn Tamales (7th Street & Hatcher)
and the list that Leanne provided.
Have a great time in Phoenix!
Sounds like great fun! Living around Valle Luna and having been there many times over the years (not willingly), might I recommend kindly as others have that you *avoid* them and instead try any of the previously posted recommendations? If you love cigarette smoke then try Richardsons <no non-smoking area>, but the rest have non-smoking areas. Have been to the other spots listed previously and agree they're much better choices. We live in Arrowhead (Glendale/Peoria area) and any on this list would be happy to offer alternatives for the area. I bet you'd LOVE the Ranch Market!
Thanks all. I knew I could count on you! I think it was La Valle Luna, someone I was with went there for years with her father, so probably the sentimental meaning was stronger than the food. I just remember it being good, not so much outstanding.
I did previously see Richardson's and other recommendations on this board, and the list above certainly is more than I can do in a day or two. Of course, this isn't till the end of the month, but I will send these along to my hosts and see where they would like to go. I have a 10 year old with us as well, so that is a consideration, although he has a wide range of tastes. That programming was done intentionally!
I frequent Richardson's regularly (once every 7 to 10 days) and can honestly say I can't remember the last time smoke was an issue. There may be one or two smoking at the bar...so don't sit there. Choose a booth in the corner. The best smoke is the pecan wood from the grills. Yum!
I don't think the Valle Luna sucks, but, I've had some items on the menu that were flat out bad. If you stick to basic Sonoran choices, it isn't too bad. They really pack 'em in on Tuesdays for the Senior Citizen Special. http://www.valleluna.com
I might prefer Arriba as something that has a location close to Peoria (Glendale) http://www.arribamexicangrill.com
I've tried a bunch of smaller, independent joints in the area, and haven't found anything great. I didn't really care for Lily's 6706 N. 58th Drive, Glendale AZ, but, I guess it has a following.
I really like the veggie fajitas at Valle Luna, lots of grilled summer squash and zuchini and no green bell peppers!
Valle Luna would be last on my list of mexican (so-called) places to eat. Almost any other place, including the many "bertos", has flavor. Luna has none.
re: personalcheffie
Yes, almost all of the suggestions are Central Phoenix or further East. The exceptions are Arriba and Ranch Market. Both have locations in Glendale.
Mi Cocina Mi Pais is a nice Ecuadorian Mom and Pop place. It's small and the service is slow, but, the food is good. The tamale sampler is a must. 4221 W Bell Rd, Phoenix AZ
Another place that interests me, is the Arizona Kitchen at the Wigwam resort. It's upscale, not Mexican, either. http://www.wigwamresort.com
You could get the Horchata gelato at Lombardo's (kiosk in Arrowhead Towne Center, 2nd level, west of the food court).
Actually, it doesn't have to be Mexican and it doesn't have to be upscale. It just has to be good. It looks as if we will be in the Peoria area for two full days, leaving on the third morning to head to Chase Field where we will probably have brunch in that area. I am looking for something that two couples and a 10 year old with broad tastes can enjoy, defintely no chains for us. There are many places that I would love to go to, but they are not in the Peoria area as I don't know that section of 'Phoenix'. I think the most north I've been is the Roy's at the Marriot off 101 Loop years ago. I am looking for something a little less formal this time, and also a little less expensive. If the market is close by in Glendale, it's a definite for me.
re: personalcheffie
Wohoo, you're in luck! There is indeed a Ranch Market in Glendale! It's at 59th Ave & Thomas (N.E. Corner) so you can either swing out loop 101 to the I-10 to 59th and swing North to Thomas, or: chug-a-lug via the surface streets due East.
As for Richardsons, you'll likely love them if you're a smoker or tolerate smoke well. I'm in a group parents who take their kids weekly to rehearsal in Richardson's neighborhood for the past several years (and more to come) - and we choose to spend the hour waiting to pick up our kids by doing dinner weekly. It has to be close by as we've only the hour, but invariably a new addition to the group will pick Richardsons - and we'll all dutifully tramp down (good sports that we are) to see if anyone can take them yet, but invariably the majority of the group end up gagging/wincing and leave about halfway through drinks. Durants this place is not, so until they bring back organic Absinthe to the bars, we bypass Richardsons only for the toxic atmosphere they force on their patrons. At least in the Absinthe bars they didn't force you to drink it!
Nothing like the old college try - and here's hoping Richardsons gets with the 20th century :-)
re: dean
I have had great meals at Richardson's, but as you, do not tolerate smoke well (even though I do some cigars on the patio after dinner at home). I've had good luck in the "annex," around the corner, and contiguous to Richardson's, Dick's (?). Same kitchen, bar/bistro setting and to the immediate east, then north, about four doors total from Richardson's. Surley, someone will give you the official name for that restaurant.
re: Bill Hunt
Dick's Hideaway is around the corner from Richardson's.
If you want authentic Mexican on the west side, you must go to La Perla's Restaurant at 51st Avenue on Glendale. This is right down the block from downtown Glendale which is actually a cool little old fashioned downtown with many funky shops and antique stores and very pedestrian friendly.
La Perla's has real mariachis at times (probably weekends) and I think they have an attached club with live Tejano music as well. There is no real atmoshere - old booths, paneling, very old building, cheap prices. But the food is incredible and it's still owned by the descendents of the couple who started it 50 years ago.
If you go to Glendale early enough in the day, there is also a very good long established chocolate factory - Cerreta's Fine Chocolates - about 1/2 mile east that does tours and hands out samples.
Best to check both for events and times by phone as I'm not sure they have websites.
There is also an excellent genuine Italian Pizza & Spaghetti place on 59th Ave and Greenway called Ralph's La Hacienda. For 30 some years I think and still run by Ralph. Awesome pizza, unusual HERB Italian house dressing (tons of herbs in their original vinagrette), and most typical spaghetti house dishes on the menu. Again no real atmosphere but prices are low. This is across from the Thunderbird International Graduate School of Management but also in strip mall region so not sure what attractions might be nearby.
The best parts about La Perla aren't even the food...
1. The crazy large fish in the crazy small tank. PETA people should not go.
2. Ruth, the old time waitress. I won't divulge my age(a lady never does..har), but Ruth has been there since I was five years old. And even at that point she had been around a long time! I remember her serving us and I had lost my two front teeth. She was known as "Roof".
3. Cheap bottled beer.
It's homestyle Sonoran food, which isn't my favorite, but we go so far back that I can't help but love it there. It's part of the fabric of old Glendale.

DEFINITION of 'Joseph Schumpeter'
One of the 20th century's great economic and political thinkers. Joseph Schumpeter is well known for his theory explaining the activities that lead to economic growth in capitalist economies. His theory centers around entrepreneurial innovations and their role as the key driver of economic growth. Schumpeter argues that competition among market participants leads to a desire to seek out new ways to improve technology, new ways to do business and other types of advantages that would increase profit margins and directly impact the entrepreneur's standard of living.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Joseph Schumpeter'
Schumpeter describes the act of new innovations replacing old innovations as "creative destruction." This process is driven by the inevitable copying of new innovations, which causes profit margins to become low and creates a new incentive to seek out new innovations. This is the essential idea behind capitalism as Schumpeter describes it.

Graduation day marks a drug-free new startBy Eric Blaisdell
STAFF WRITER | May 07,2013BARRE While others were in the courthouse for custody hearings and guilty pleas to crimes, two men were being congratulated for the hard work they did in kicking their drug addictions.
Larry Briggs, of Montpelier, and Thomas Lamson, of South Barre, graduated Monday from Adult Drug Treatment Court at the Washington County criminal court in Barre.
Briggs was convicted in 2011 of burglarizing Katies Jewels in Montpelier. He said he has no memory of the incident in September 2010 because he was on alcohol and pills at the time.
Now Briggs, 37, is proud to say he hasnt touched a drop of alcohol for over two years and is starting to live his life.
When Im drunk and when Im high, Im not there for anybody, Briggs said in an interview, adding he has a daughter. Im not there for her when Im messed up. Im supposed to be her role model.
During the graduation ceremony, Briggs told others who are still in the program that he now has an apartment he has lived in for two years, which is a big deal because when he was using drugs he wouldnt stay in one place for more than a month or two, characterizing himself as a nomad. His advice, even though he admitted it was a cliché, was to take things one day at a time. If you do that, Briggs advised, life does get better.
Lamson was convicted of possession of marijuana in 2011, but he said he also had a problem with opiate drugs.
Lamson works for the music label and promoter Big Heavy World and is the host of a local TV show called My Electric Kingdom in which he interviews and records musicians from around the country. He said if not for the court program, or some other kind of support like rehabilitation, he would not have his job today. Instead, hed be getting by on odd jobs or by illegal means, he said. Now he can move on with his life in a more positive way.
I wanted to be able to do something without having to worry about opiates, without having to worry about withdrawals or having to find (the drugs) or the money for (the drugs), he said in an interview.
Judge Thomas Zonay told Lamson and Briggs they represent why treatment court is important.
We have two young men who engaged in conduct who now recognize there are things to do to get the help you need for substance abuse issues, he said.
Zonays advice to the men as they move forward in their lives came from an ancient source.
The philosopher Seneca was quoted as saying, Luck is that moment in time when preparation meets opportunity. You have prepared and you will have plenty of opportunities. If you both do what you have shown that you can do, you will be very lucky in your life. Good luck.
Howard Hood, the clinical coordinator for the treatment court, said the court has been in place since 2006 and consists of three phases. Phase one is about showing up for appointments and making an honest commitment to staying off drugs. Phase two involves getting into treatment and learning coping skills to stay clean. Phase three is when the person focuses on his or her ongoing recovery and reintegrating into society drug-free.
Hood said some participants dont make it to phase three because things fall apart for them and they end up relapsing, abusing drugs and alcohol again. Hood pointed more happily to the success stories: In the last year three people, including Briggs and Lamson, have graduated.
The program, which is a collaboration between Washington County criminal court and Central Vermont Substance Abuse Services, currently has 11 participants.

Society of Jesus calls missionaries to Second Life
Jesuit missionaries may soon venture into Second Life, intent on saving virtual people from virtual sins. Writing in the Italian Jesuit journal La Civilta Cattolica, whose contents are approved by the Vatican, Father Antonio Spadaro has told fellow Catholics that they shouldn't be wary of venturing into Second Life's virtual …
Doing God's work in Second Life
I am a practising Catholic, and a regular Second Life visitor. My halo isn't particularly shiny in either Real or Second Life. I have made a number of very good friends in Second Life from all over the world, including many fellow Britons.
Your commentators often refer to Second Life as Sadville, and I can understand the accusation. I think there are many who are socially inadequate for whom SL enables them to spread their wings, to form friendships, to relate with people in a way which they cannot, or choose not to, do in Real Life.
Amongst my SL friends are two suicidal women - they have 5 attempts between them. I have had an occasion where I was dealing with one of them who had deliberately cut herself, and she and I were sitting in my SL flat for hours talking, partly as our avatars and partly as our real selves, always keeping her talking - she would never have called Samaritans, or even woken her mum who was asleep in the next bedroom. The other girl had a history of violence and abuse from her father, and is psychologically scarred, unable to bear even the slightest physical touch from any man, even one towards whom she is the smitten kitten. Again, there have been times when I've been able to talk, to listen (odd concept, being a good listener in IM) and to counsel.
The Jesuits (I was educated by the Jesuits) have a pragmatic view on how to deal with the needy. They would appear to recognise that, while it is in Africa, and Asia, and South America that physical and material poverty is encountered, there is a terrible spiritual poverty in the materially rich world. I would like to think that their mission to Second Life would be less about gaining converts, and more about ministering to the spiritually impoverished.
A mission to Second Life should be considered as very much secondary to the real life work, vastly, vastly less significant (not least because the population is so relatively small), yet not totally insignificant. Every avatar is a representation and a virtual embodiment of a real person, made in God's likeness. To reflect His love into this virtual world is a good ambition.
Are you sure bout that?
While I applaud your altruistic actions I've got to wonder if you've been taken in by scam artists? The idea behind second life is that you can be someone you're not (i.e. pretend/virtual/fake,etc...) and many of the "people" there are such sad sorry bastards they make up horrible things just to garner attention from the gullible.
Behold this information: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/11/29/otto_sadville/ about such people. (also includes directions on where to go if you want to get buggered by a dirty uncle or want to do a bit of buggering yourself) Perhaps you can find more people to help there. Simply by sacrificing the anal virginity of your avatar you can bring people closer to Jesus (or insert deity here).
Virtual Sinners
May they all go to virtual hell.
Re: Virtual Sinners
I think the point of the missionaries is to stop them from going to either hell.
Just all you Second Lifers wait
for the Jehovah's Witnesses to appear and start knocking on your virtual doors.
Fantasy world
They should be extra careful. eventually could get very confused about which fantasy world they are actually in at any given time.
From what we hear about these missionaries and priests all the time, whatever their "brand", they are probably more interested in participating in the depravity... Me coat! :-)
well who is the sickest/stupidest here???
the good thing about 2nd life is it IS NOT REAL .. so you can do things that in real life would mean hospital or worse!
If your intelligence is so low as to be 'hurt' by MERE WORDS, or obviously FAKE PICS, then most of the residents will soon start ignoring you...
'Doing gods work' is a good thing, and I am sure you can easily spot the idiots... It is them that take so much effort in lying, It is a good laugh to see them trying so hard!!!
and if you are unfortunate to have been born without a 'humor bone' the please wake up and realize that people may sound serious, but in fact they are laughing!!
A commendable idea
Second Life is already a haven for weirdos of all sorts. It may as well round out the collection with some religious whackos too. The possibilities for griefing are endless. I expect we'll see pitched battles with swarms of flying phalluses, crucifixes as the weapons.
And the award for 'Classic Comment of The Decade' goes to ....
*pauses to open envelope* .... 'DeFex' for 'They should be extra careful. eventually could get very confused about which fantasy world they are actually in at any given time.'
Temptation ...
"open to any form of erotic stimulation from prostitution to pedophilia."
In other words, the catholic church has figured out they have competition to the perks of the priesthood?
Supernatural Superbeings...
... in a makebelive world, bring it on! Havn't the belivers of supernatual superbings got nothing better to do, than to 'preach' to people who live a virtual world?
This reminds me of a short story...
I forget who wrote it and its name, but this reminds me of a short sci-fi story about a priest arriving to spread the word of God on a planet peopled by lizard creatures who looked on everything from a logical perspective and had never encountered fiction or lies; it's told from the perspective of a trader who has been trading with the natives.
The natives eventually crucify the priest. Very satisfying story.
Of course Second Life natives aren't logical lizard people (as far as I know) but here's hoping something similar happens to the schizotypal, viral-meme spreading social parasites on their arrival...
re: short story
Sounds like The Streets of Ashkelon (aka An Alien Agony) by Harry Harrison.
He couldn't get it published in the US for 6 years.
harry harrisons short story - The Streets of Ashkelon
for the first chapter, that happens to include the whole story.
I used to run around in Second life shortly after it cleared Beta. IIRC, there were only about 16 sims at the time, but the community was reasonably close and engaging. (The reason why I no longer run around in there? Real life, mostly.)
If I'm going to meet these silly people in game if I happen to login, I'm probably going to put this shirt on my avatar:
Hell, I might even have the original texture files hanging around somewhere even...
Who's next?
If al Qaeda announce a virtual Jihad on Sadville's 'immoral' inhabitants, SL really will have a full and comprehensive selection of nutters on display. Maybe virtual petrol will explode with a little more vigour than the real thing, unencumbered by the laws of physics.
Another bit of Science Fiction
James Blish wrote "A Case of Conscience" (poublished in the 1950s) that has a Jesuit going on a mission to an "eden" world populated by (as I remember) lizard people and it all goes bad because since they are rational and intelligent they are from SATAN!!!!

City council unanimously voted to allow Charlottesville-Albemarle Rescue Squad, or CARS, to bill passengers for ambulance rides at its Monday night meeting.
Council formalized, for the first time, CARS' role alongside the fire department.
"Over 50 years we've never really had any formal agreement about the services that we provide to the city," said CARS' president Michael Berg.
He explained Virginia state law requires local jurisdictions to approve service providers
"This is just a formality to move through, but it also affords an opportunity for greater collaboration and cooperation with the city fire department and the Charlottesville-Albemarle Rescue Squad."
Council also allowed CARS to bill for transporting patients and the services they provide during transport. CARS has not charged for this before.
Berg said this will allow the group enough money to continue to provide services to the community because, though it met its goal this year, raising enough money can be challenging.
"We've been greatly supported by the community over the years. We did make our fund drive goal this past year. I think there were some people in the community that [were] concerned because of some changes in dynamics, but we were very successful in obtaining that goal. But you have to look towards the future, and this organization's been in place for over 50 years, and part of that's because we look to the future," said Berg.
The ordinance allows the right to bill, but CARS may decide whether or not it will.
The ordinance also puts city council in charge of rates and regulating them.
"Generally, what happens is they'll look at rates in the surrounding areas and look at what's the most affordable for the community," explained Berg.
Council will approve all fees CARS may charge at a future meeting.

The average price per piece is excellent. Great everyday towels I will probably order another set for the other bathroom too!
The towels were a really good deal so I decided to give them a try. I bought them in the red and the cream to match my bathroom. The towels left some fuzz in the washing machine after I washed them and then left a lot of lint in the dryer. Since then, they have a left a little fuzz behind when you use them but I'm hoping they'll get better with time and more washings.
I purchased this set of towels but I was very disappointed by the quality of the material. The towels are extremely thin almost see thru. Really poor quality.
This is the second set of these I have purchased. They are a great deal and a nice towel.
I am very happy with the strength and softness of these Towels. They mix in a comfortable way in my bathroom. The color of these towels is purple. This particular purple seems to blend in with many of my other towels. Thank you
Excellent quality, great price & fast delivery. Great selection.
After one wash they looked thoroughly worn and one set faded like it had bleach spilled on it.
I bought the espresso set for our 2nd home in the mountains. I received them and washed and the color faded spotty so it looked as if they were exposed to bleach in some areas. The towels were good otherwise, but the color was an issue so I am returning them. Maybe one of the light colors would have been fine.

In the garden
Community gardens
Would you like to have a vegetable garden but don't think it's possible this year?
A lack of space, experience or resources such as tools or money to buy seeds and bedding plants doesn't need to stand in your way. Applications for Gardens Growing Families, a community garden program for county residents, are now being accepted at the Henrico Extension Office.
Individuals or families who participate in the program receive expert help, free classes, tools, and water for irrigation as well as space to grow a garden for a fee of $5 to $65 a year, based on household income, the number of gardeners per family, and garden plot size. Garden plots are either 15 feet by 20 feet or 15 feet by 10 feet, and gardeners can rent up to two plots.
"Gardens Growing Families is designed to get people gardening, harvesting, preparing and storing nutritious food," said Lisa Sanderson, Henrico Extension Agent.
"And, just as important as producing food, gardening together can help build families," added Sanderson. "Families who garden together. To me, that's the most important part."
Garden plots are available in the Alma Avenue Island Garden near Alma and Laburnum Avenues and in Highland Springs at the corner of West Jerald Street and South Holly Avenue. The 34 plots at the Lakeside Garden have already been taken.
"We started in 2008," said Sanderson, "And some of the original families are still with us!"
In a survey, almost all past participants said their family's diet improved, and three-quarters said they saved money at the grocery store. "One man, who had two plots and gardened year-round, said he had saved almost $700," said Sanderson.
The plots are available to participants from the first of April to the end of March. "You really can grow things to eat here all year long," said Sanderson. "You have to like cabbage, and you have to plan, but you can do it!"
Participants maintain their gardens using only organic methods, which means no pesticides or herbicides in the gardens.
A demonstration plot is maintained by Henrico Master Gardeners, who are often on hand at the gardens to answer questions. "It's the first experience for some," said Sanderson, "so we encourage people to ask questions."
A free seminar for participants will be held Saturday, April 7 from 9 a.m. to noon at the Henrico Demonstration Kitchen on Dixon Powers Drive. Topics include "Getting Started," "Growing More," and "Expanding Your Food Palette and Preparing Foods." Programs for kids ages 5-13 will also be held that day.
"Young people can learn how to garden, see where their food comes from, and learn how to do things with their parents," said Sanderson.
"And remember, food tastes better when you grow it yourself," she added.

CCC seeks donations for food pantry
Citizen Staff Reports 11/12/2014
Commonwealth Catholic Charities is in desperate need of food donations for its community food pantry that serves the region's low-income families, according to officials with the Henrico-based nonprofit.
After moving into its new location this past summer, the agency has dedicated a larger space for the pantry but the shelves are practically empty.
"As we head into the holidays and the weather turns colder, the need for food becomes even more critical, but unfortunately our cupboards are nearly bare," said Jay Brown, the agency's director for the division of housing services. "Donations of food will allow us help provide." > Read more.

DEFINITION of 'Selling Out Of Trust'
A term commonly used in the automobile industry to refer to the selling of a car that has been paid for with a loan and then not using the sale proceeds to pay back the lender. This practice may be engaged in by car dealerships or individuals facing financial difficulty. Normally, if an individual can't make his car payments, the bank takes back the car. When the owner sells the car out of trust and doesn't repay the loan, the bank can't seize the loan collateral (the car).
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Selling Out Of Trust'
Dealers who obtain loans to acquire their vehicles can likewise engage in selling out of trust. Normally, a dealer pays monthly interest in the loans used to purchase vehicles until the vehicles are sold, at which point the loan is supposed to be repaid. While this term is commonly used in reference to car sales, it can also be used in other situations where a debtor sells an item without passing the sale proceeds to the lender. Selling out of trust is illegal.

All big movements start small, but many would be surprised to learn that Ten Thousand Villages—a nonprofit and retailer with 390 outlets nationwide—began out of a car trunk. In 1946, Edna Ruth Byler started the organization out of her car, taking a name from a quote by Mohandas Gandhi, who said, "India is not to be found in its few cities but in the 700,000 villages." Her willpower and determination allowed her vision to grow into a nonprofit that today supports more than 130 artisans in 38 developing countries. These artisans' wares go on sale at the organization's nationwide retail outlets, which brim with items including jewelry, home decor, and refrigerator cozies.
Everything is made using environmentally friendly processes, and every artisan is paid a fair wage. The money raised from sales goes to supply the artisans—who might otherwise be unemployed or underemployed—with education, food, housing, and healthcare. The organization has risen to such stature that it won the People's Choice Award for Green Business of the Year in 2005, and has acted as one of the founding members of the World Fair Trade Organization.
