2000 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe Review
Decent power with class leading fuel economy
Steering lock and differential issues
First Vette — I've owned this car since new. A little more than 30k on the odometer. Great casual car for weekend fun. Have done a few track related weekend getaways with the Mrs. Suprising cargo capacity for these outing, enough room luggage, folding chairs and all the accessories needed for a three day weekend. Also fuel economy blew me away, drove 600 miles to the innagural F1 race at Indy on one tank. In hindsight I was misinformed about the fuel capacity, would not have streatched so far otherwise. Great track manners. No where near the power of contemporary Vipers but it would out handle them in the twisties. Some gremlins along the way, anti-theft system stranded me with the steering lock issue. GM failed only a week later. Bought an aftermarket fix that has been reliable. Rear differential has a leak now - major undertaking to fix. Like doing all my own work, not looking forward to this one. Interior is not much better than other Chevy's. Looks like GM has made some progress on the Gen7 Corvette. Problems aside, I'd buy it again. Best value in this segment.

The price for this car used is phenominal for the handling and MPG you get.
I can't have 20 of them.
Awesome — This car compared to other foreign model sports cars is unsurpassed in all respects. The value for the money is uncomparable. The amount of miles you can travel with the 6-speed manual on a tank of gas is incredible. I took a 4200 mile trip, running at an average of 80-95 miles an hour with a top speed of 177 miles per hour and still averaged 30.4 miles per gallon. How can you beat that?

Hard top model more interior room and has a trunk Looks like super road car Build quality of the hard top is excellant no rattles or wind noise 31.5mpg on the highway All service is reasonabley priced. Acceleration and handling are way ubove expectations. The most fun since high school 52 years ago
Road noise
As A Two Corvette Owner This Is The Most Comfotable For Long Trips Great Milage And Lovin It — Ground clearance really close speed bumps and drive ways a challange Only run flat tires no spare. Underhood acess realy tight, battery shorts can have really bad issues. Can't get under it to do anything making it hard without a roll-on lift

Fun, still turns heads and inexpensive.
no reason to avoid it
I Love It. — Z51 package handles very good. No squeaks, no rattles, looks great, ergonomic interior, excellent mileage and fun to drive. Very inexpensive to own. I bought it new and it now has 55,000 on it. Rear end has a minor leak still haunting me after it was fixed under warranty.

Car is fun to drive gets great mileage tons of after market parts to make it your own
loud road noise on some roads,Tires are expensive
Awesome Car Fun To Drive — I think the C5 Corvette is one of the best cars you can buy for the money. It is responsive and sure footed in almost anything you can throw at it. I think it is one of tne best looking cars you can buy with styling and looks comparable to much more expensive Exotics with the performance to match with out the high cost of maintenance.

Great car and great gas milage
Passenger blinker, driving blub burns out. I have also noticed this on other C-5's. Maybe a design flaw...
A Great Car Would Own A New One Again — I love the color and the price...well worth the money! Easy to drive and great handling Lots of "thumbs up" when driving Enough room for two suitcases Great on long drives Love the headsup display Just a lot of fun to own and drive as my daily driver!!

It is the best sports car on the road for the price. I love the styling.
This car is run by computer and so much of the system runs in the back ground. If you do not drive at least a couple times a week, you find yourself with a dead battery very often and then needing to replace batteries often.
Fabulous — My car always attracts so much attention. It is a rare color and not many were ever made in the Nassau Blue. After owning another sports car manual drive for 15 years, I loved the automatic. It has so much power, it will put you in back seat. I love the C5, C6, and now the C7.

This car is a 6speed, black on black, loaded, miles of only 46,150, drives like a race car, has 8cd holder in the rear, it's a coupe, not a thing wrong with it, just a beautiful car, and fun to drive. average mileage is 28mpg, great tires,,stored all winter and summer, only out when I use it.
Its black, everything shows inside and out
It Has Great Style — There is nothing I dislike about this car; the performance is top of the line, it handles and accelerates like a sports car should. It's sporty, classy, and it makes peoples heads turn. The ride is great with top off or on, and in 6th gear you are making money!

powerful, great looking, fun to drive
2 person car, marginal interior quality
Hot — Fast, fun, hard on gas mileage, typical American car of the early 2000. Detroit union made. Some inferior workmanship and subsequent reliability of parts. Replaced the air conditioner and power steering unit. Still a performance bargain for the price. I want a newer version (2007 Z06).

Surprisingly free of typical Corvette issues. Maintenance has been on time and any repairs needed were made immediately so it is in excellent mechanical condition. Interior is like new.
Had to remove run-flats, as there is no dealer in this area to repair them. Glass tops tend to crack along the edges over time.
Super Clean All Black 2000 Corvette Glass Top Coupe — When I first bought this car, it had numerous electrical issues. It was in the shop on four occassions due to needed corrections of electrical issues, but after the first year of repairs, it has been surprisingly free of problems. The normal repairs that arise over time have been nothing out of the oridinary, and I average about 22 MPG around the city, so gas mileage is not really an issue. Probably due to the overdrive. Generally a great car.

Wow. I would have trouble LIMITING myself to four tablespoons.
I fry my eggs in butter. I eat butter spread thickly on bread. I butter veggies. I fry potatoes in butter. I make wonderful chicken-stock-based sauces and garlic and lemon sauces that are full of butter. I use a quarter pound of butter in one batch of pancakes, and then butter the pancakes on my plate. I make cornbread with a TON of butter, or muffins, too.

Don't tell Antwun Echols about second chances or redemption. He's fighting at home in the Quad Cities to win and nothing else.
"It's not about pride," the two-time Bernard Hopkins foe says.
"It's about finishing what I started."
Each training session means a little more now to the 41 year old Antwun Echols. On February 23rd, he fights in his hometown for the first time in 12 years.
It's unique relationship between the cities and one of their most accomplished fighters. Echols is contrite about his past in Davenport, referring to a history that includes multiple arrests and shootings.
"How I was in the past is why I get a bad rap. I got what was mine. This is a new chapter," Echols says from his home in Dade City, FL.
Turning the page, Echols is eager for his chance against a hot prospect in the region.
"Ask Bernard Hopkins who hit him the hardest. He'll tell you Antwun Echols. No way this kid can beat me."
He faces rising Galesburg, IL middleweight George Carter 8-0, 6 KO's for the CBA North American Middleweight Championship.
The encounter between 26 year old George Carter and the former world title challenger, is a classic match of generations. The old attempting to stave off the new.
Carter isn't listening to those who point at Echols' long string of recent knockout losses.
"In my mind, I'm fighting the Antwun Echols from 15 years ago. I'm preparing like it's Floyd Mayweather standing across from me," Carter said before a recent workout in Galesburg.
The co-feature is another intriguing match between an older and younger fighter from the region.
Accomplished Moline fighter Gilbert Venegas has long been called the mythical "King of the Quad."
It's an unofficial title that Lance "Lay Em Down" Williams 4-0, 4 KO's hopes to assume after the fight.
"It's my time," the former standout amateur says in quite confidence.
Supporters of both fighters are clear in their opinion, but Williams won't be one to trash talk before this contest for local bragging rights.
"I respect (Venegas) majorly. I grew up watching him win tournaments," the reserved Muscatine boxer shared.
Gilbert Venegas 15-6-1, 9 KO's has his believers in the greater Quad Cities. Many in the gym circle quietly saying Lance has bit off more than he can chew with the experienced, 35 year old Venegas.
Williams plans on using a win over Venegas as a spring board for bigger opportunities in his career. According to Williams; he has an open invitation from Roger Mayweather to train in Las Vegas.
"To hear that from a great trainer like him was special."
Anticipation for the co-main event has created buzz in the area not seen since Davenport hosted the Michael Nunn-James Toney IBF title bout in 1991.
After a long absence, boxing has again become a fixture in the Midwest on the banks of the Mississippi.
Highlighting the undercard will be middleweight "Lightning" Limberth Ponce 2-0, 1 KO. Ponce, the 2012 Chicago Golden Gloves champion, will face Eli Smith 0-1 in his third pro bout.
Davenport natives Travis Thomas 1-0, 1 KO and Donovan Dennis 1-0, 1 KO will perform in front of their hometown fans.

I've never tried anything from Jemma Kidd Makeup School before so I thought a good place to start would be to try one of my favourite types of products...a highlighter! This is the Dual Illuminator Creme Highlighter & Shimmer Dust in Champagne. It's a compact, sleek little tub with a cream highlighter pan in the top, complete with a mirror in the lid.
It has a shimmer powder in the bottom section, with a sifter and a teeny tiny powder puff...
The idea is that it's a convenient product to carry around with you when you want to update a daytime look into a more glamourous night time look. You can use the highlighters individually or layer the shimmer powder over the creme highlighter for added intensity. You can use this product on your cheekbones, browbones, down the center of the nose but also on your collarbones or legs as well. I always feel that the best way to apply creme highlighter is to pat it on the skin rather than rubbing it on, otherwise it can end up streaky. I really like the universal champagne color which I think would be flattering on all skintones.
I have swatched the product above (creme highlighter on the top and shimmer powder below it). The creme highlighter is very light in texture and non greasy therefore it's really easy to apply. The shimmer powder is so finely milled and delicate, it adds such a pretty sheen to the skin without looking too obvious. You can even used the creme highlighter as a base for your eyeshadow or just use the shimmer powder as your eyeshadow on top of it. It's such a multi-purpose product, it would be really great for traveling or taking on holiday.
Usually I like to apply a lipbalm to my lips before applying lipstick as a lot of them can be drying and just emphasize but with this lip product, I don't have to. It's hydrating and feels more like a mixture between a lipstick and a gloss (hence the name, I guess). It has a really nice consistency that feels really light to wear.
You can see the sheen the glosstick has from the swatch below...
I wouldn't say that this is the most long lasting lip product because you do have to re-apply it after eating or drinking but I really like the effect it gives. I prefer lighter formulations in summer as I don't like to look too 'made up' on hot summer days.
However, I was a little bit disappointed when I realized that they were actually clear gel liners with colored glitter added. I had always imagined them to be metallic shimmering liners with more depth. The brush applicator were also a bit disappointing in that they are prone to splaying out everywhere when you pull them from the tubes.
I could still use them over pencil liners to add a bit more interest but I guess I just expected the glitter particles to be finer. You could layer the liner to get a more intense effect but the glitter particles mean that you can't pack too much of it on or it begins to look too heavy.
Have you ever tried Jemma Kidd Makeup? Was this review helpful?

"Outstanding! I changed it up a little. Used half 14 oz. can Italian stewed tomatoes and eliminated the onion and green pepper.

"This is a fabulous method of cooking the shrimp. I will never boil them again. The difference in taste is unbelievable. I serve them with an aioli sauce. They were the first things to go at my Superbowl party. Try them. You won't be disappointed!! Thanks Ina!""
"I wanted to use the aioli for a dipping sauce for Ina Garten's roasted shrimp and substituted the tarragon for dill and only added two tablespoons of garlic instead of four. This recipe called for waaaay too much lemon juice. I had to add another cup of mayo just to tighten it up and cut the lemon juice. It was way too soupy.

We truly loved the cabin. Phil the owner was is so kind and supplies everything you need. We enjoyed waking up in the morning to look out to the river from the bed to listening the birds sing. It really was a peaceful getaway from the world. I really loved how far back from the main road it is no connection to the crazy life we all live in. WE WILL BE BACK SOON!

My husband and I stayed for a total of 4 nights, including Christmas, and loved every minute of it. If you need a TV to relax you are in the wrong place, although there was an old tv and a VCR with family friendly movies available. This cabin is all about getting away from it all. It was very cozy and the gas stove with a nice programmable thermostat provided lots of heat and comfort. The less electricity you use the less you need to run the generator, we ran it for about an hour a day which gave us a small light in each room and used candles to supplement, which made the atmosphere even cozier. We also used a cooler on the deck outside instead of plugging in the fridge. Even the stereo (we played a bunch of old cassette tapes, the radio signal is not very clear) was not a problem to run for a while. If you are looking to not be bothered by anything or anyone and want to enjoy nature, but want a warm and cozy place to come home to, this is it.

This is a gorgeous location nestled into the woods with a rushing creek out your bedroom window. It is at least a 20 minute drive to I-5. If you ever wondered what life was like living off the grid this cottage offers a wonderful introduction. No phone service, no internet, and power from gasoline generators. Once the generator is switched off power is supplied by car batteries through an invertor. And the only sound you can hear then is the river (unless the neighbor's generator is running). It has a full kitchen, hot water, and gas stove for heat. Overall it is a unique experience in a delightful setting.

This cabin, while a little remote, is amazing and perfect for a quiet getaway. The deck, complete with woodburning stove, overlooks a rushing river and beautiful trees and is a balm to any city stress you may still be holding onto. Phil and Leslie are very sweet and charming and provided not only all the kitchen necessities but also a couple of bottles of wine. We would definitely recommend this place and would love to return some day.

I stayed in the cabin for a week while visiting family in the area for a wedding. With family, it was all rush, rush, rush, but at the cabin, all was peaceful and quiet. In fact, I got the best sleep that I've had in years! Typically up at five or so, I found myself sleeping in late almost every day. My visit was rejuvenating. The only sound I heard at night was the gentle gurgle from the stream. Mornings were just a bit nippy this time of year, but not so nippy that I couldn't enjoy my morning coffee and bagel on the deck overlooking the stream. I strongly recommend rising early at least one morning, so that you can catch sunrise from the deck. The kitchen is well stocked, so all I needed to bring was food, and the owners greeted me on my arrival with a bag of local coffee - how nice! My only regret is that I wasn't able to spend every minute of my trip at the cabin. It is thoughtfully laid out, comfortable, and very snug. I spent several evenings enjoying a good book while curled up on the downstairs sofa, and could have happily done the same every night.

Beer Reviews (6)
Restaurant Reviews (0)
Not sure what they were looking for in the RB beers, but the brewmaster DOES NOT have to be replaced! My experience at RB has been good 99% of the time. They only serve their beers (no Bud, Miller or Coors) and have fashioned theirselves as local, neighborhood English-style brewpub.
Because of this, the beers have to be catered to the local tastes. If your beer doesn't sell, you're out of business!
Yes, use they Ringwood yeast.. (and lot's of people bash Ringwood, like lot's of people bash Microsoft.) Ringwood wiil have some characteristics that carry over from beer to beer but a good brewmaster finds a way to minimize this. I've found each RB beer is true to the style it's brewed to. If you don't like the style, you probably won't like the beers.
Are there places in Baltimore that will enhance the palattes of the die-hard beer geeks with more exotic brews? Absolutely. But if you want consistant, solid brews, in my opinion, RB will deliver that to you.
I would look at all the reviews for RB in general & not be influenced by one or two bad experiences as you can't make everyone happy.

Bravo is no slouch in the whetting one's appetite department. Along with the news yesterday that Randi "Sister of Mark, Singer of Songs" Zuckerberg would be the executive producer of a new reality show, the House That Andy Cohen Built also released a short, but tantalizing preview wherein geeks were likened to rock stars and Silicon Valley to high school, "but it's only the smart kids and everyone has a lot of money." Sold! Sign us up for the schadenfreude when reality TV's potent cocktail of ambition, desperation, and actual cocktails collides.
Thankfully, Drew Olanoff at The Next Web was kind enough to single out some of the potential players so we can start doing our due diligence. According to Mr. Olanoff the show will "star" The Next Web's Silicon Valley video director Hermione Way. Her brother Ben Way, founder of The Rainmakers, Kim Taylor, digital director at Ampush Media, and Dwight Crow, founder of Carsabi.com also all appear in the preview.
A rep for Bravo told Betabeat that the cast is "not confirmed," emphasizing that, "Randi is not in the show." However, an NBC affiliate (Bravo is owned by NBCUniversal) also reported the same stars, along with Marcus Lovingood, founder of Futureleap. A Facebook post from Erin Kanaley Famularo, who used to work in consumer marketing at Facebook and now works as director of production at Ms. Zuckerberg's R to Z Media, seems to indicate that David Murray, who has worked at Google, Raptr, and Atari, will likewise be joining the cast. "Exciting! We can finally talk about this," wrote Ms. Famularo.
So let's make their acquaintance, shall we?
Hermione Way, Silicon Valley video director for The Next Web
In addition to video directing for The Next Web, Ms. Way also founded Newspepper.com and Techfluff.TV. The UK native tweeted the photo above, adding, "Today I got billed as 'being Britain's answer to Mark Zuckerberg' in the March Edition of Company Magazine." Thumbs-up for the #bragbrag over a #humblebrag and to Company for getting Hollywood starlet Zoey Deschannel on the cover. Good work, everyone! A+.
Ben Way, founder of Rainmakers
Mr. Way (Hermione's brother), whose company Rainmakers incubates early stage startups and technologies, has some experience in the reality show circuit. According to his incredibly extensive Wikipedia bio, he appeared on Britain's Richest Kids, Channel 4's Secret Millionaire, and a dating show called Take Me Out. (photo via @benpbway)
Kim Taylor, Digital Director Ampush Media
Ms. Taylor, a self-described "cheesehead," seemed to confirm her newfound stardom yesterday, tweeting out, "Thanks for the love NBC! Thrilled to be on Bravo's new show." She is also the cast member responsible for that Silicon Valley=High School quote, which, we think, speaks for itself. (photo via @kimmytaylor)
Marcus Lovingood, founder of Futureleap
Mr. Lovingood's company, Futureleap, calls itself a social media production company for movies. We learned this via a charming British voiceover, which starts playing when you click on the site. According to LinkedIn, Mr. Lovingood is also responsible for producing something called "The Gossip Guys" podcast and spent his last two years of high school working "as a top performer at Disneyland." Something tell us this kid was destined for fameballing. With a name like that, it was only a matter of time, really. (photo via @marcuslovingood)
Dwight Crow, founder of Carsabi.com
Mr. Crow's startup Carsabi, "a Kayak.com for automotives," went through the latest cycle of Y Combinator. TechCrunch gave Carsabi top billing as one of the ten best from that class for already surfacing "more deals than industry leader AutoTrader" and allowing users to sort by the biggest savings and not just the lowest price. Unless there's more than one Dwight Crow in the Valley, he also appears to know his way around a public pillow fight.
David Murray, stealth startup founder and CEO
Mr. Murray, pictured above as an enthusiastic 19-year-old, has an impressive resume. He was an associate product manager at Google, user experience lead at Atari, and head of product at Raptr. His new LinkedIn title is founder and CEO of an unnamed new venture in Mountain View. Whatever he's building, it looks like a recent move. Just last week, he tweeted about his last day at Raptr. Perhaps we'll get to witness the tension of trying to start your own company . . . while you're still working for someone else's. (photo via @davidimurray)
Hi my friend! I wish to say that this post is awesome, nice written and include approximately all significant infos. I'd like to peer more posts like this .
I think the people are ready. The majority just doesn't know it yet. Its events like this that help raise the awareness that there is a minority out there who's rights (to love and live as they are) are unnecessarily and unfairly infringed. Now the govt needs to take over the lead and make it official: Its okay to be gay.

Over half (55pc) of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Ireland describe their social media performance as 'average' or 'poor' and just 2pc rate it as better than expected.
That's according to new research carried out among Irish SMEs by Mindshare on behalf of Bord Gais Energy in advance of the Bord Gais Energy Social Media Awards which take place on Thursday 5th June.
The survey also reveals that three quarters (75pc) of Irish SMEs don't measure their social media performance and 17pc don't even have a website.
The survey also makes for interesting reading for employers and for staff and job seekers as 44pc of SME owners and managers confirm that they review a person's social media activity before recruiting staff and almost one in four (23pc) admit to firing or warning staff due to their online behaviour.
A quarter of business owners and managers check social media over breakfast, while 1pc wake up during the night to check social media.
However, some 43pc have now developed a social media policy document to help manage their social media activity and offer guidelines to staff with 41pc of businesses surveyed stating that they encourage their staff members to use social media as part of their roles.
According to Damien Mulley, founder of the Bord Gais Energy Social Media Awards, "While it's the still the wild, wild west for some on social media, this survey shows that the marshals have arrived in town to bring order. Your boss is probably following you on Twitter under that generic account name and watching what you're saying about the company. So, my advice is, behave on social media as you do in person."
"Having said that, employers need to be careful too and realise that employment law is harsh on employers, so if they're profiling job applicants and using social media, they themselves might get in trouble as you are only meant to evaluate on the application received."
More positively, Irish SMEs are choosing to prioritise online advertising (17pc of their advertising budgets) over traditional print advertising (12pc of advertising budgets) and 37pc say they will increase their social media investment in the next 12 months.
In addition, customer engagement is the most important use of social media for SMEs in Ireland and some 45pc of SME's are managing their social media activity themselves, rather than outsourcing.
Commenting on the survey findings, Eoin O Suilleabhain, Digital and Social Media Manager with Bord Gais Energy said, "It is encouraging to see that so many small-medium businesses in Ireland are now managing their social media in-house and that they are using social media as a customer engagement channel. And while businesses are allocating a significant percentage of available spend to advertising online, there is still a long way to go as almost half of SMEs surveyed don't integrate social media with their main websites and over half again don't measure or only sporadically measure their social media performance."
According to the survey, the biggest challenges facing SMEs in Ireland are market performance (46pc and consumer confidence (26pc).

NTT DoCoMo CFO thinks It would make good business sense to carry the iPhone
NTT DoCoMo is Japan's largest mobile carrier, with about 60 million subscribers. But it remains a holdout on the iPhone, primarily due to the fact that the carrier likes to pre-load applications and services on phones -- something Apple specifically forbids. A SankeiBiz interview with DoCoMo CFO Kazuto Tsubouchi reveals that the company has been in negotiations with Apple, although they don't expect to have come to agreement prior to the announcement of the next-generation iPhones expected on September 10.
DoCoMo develops a "lifestyle system" for phones on its network that requires special software to come pre-installed on those phones, whereas Apple doesn't want carrier bloatware installed on iPhones. Market watchers say that the carrier must make a deal with Apple if they're to remain on top of the Japanese market.
Although a DoCoMo representative made a comment in July about the iPhone no longer being "the god of all smartphones," the company can't afford to ignore the positive financial impact that the iPhone has had on many other carriers around the world.

Thank you for considering our art photo professional service. I am "Agung Mulyajaya" the director and founder of MJY Photography. I have started discovering professional wedding photography since 1997. Actually I'm not a newcomer, I've been a professional photographer for over 20 years. It was obvious to me at an early age that being a photographer was what i wanted to do in my life!
The sense, passion, eye composition, angle and lighting.. I then went on to Sydney, Australia for photography lesson.
My camera has always been like a passport into history. I am continually honored when doors open and people invite me in to document their life. I've traveled around the world to many places for human interest picture, several wedding, photo tour as a other way to upgradeing my experiences and gain some fresh innovative ideas.

Lake Norman, one of the state's premiere waterways, attracts tens of thousands of boating, swimming and fishing enthusiasts each year.However, there's something else which the lake also attracts annually in the thousands: hydrilla, recognized as the most problematic aquatic plant in the United States.In an attempt to contain the invasive submersed hydrilla plant, the Lake Norman Marine Commission will stock the lake with sterile grass carp again this year. The fish consume the hydrilla, according to Bob Elliot, chairman of the Lake Norman Marine Commission's hydrilla committee.It's an ongoing effort to keep the threat in check."Consistent annual use of carp is the most cost-effective way to control the hydrilla," said Elliot. "I would expect that we will be putting 1,200 carp into the lake by the end of May."Elliot says this will be the sixth year carp have been introduced into the lake in order to control hydrilla growth.This year, the carp supply should cost about $7,200 with the expenses shared between the state, Duke Energy, Charlotte Mecklenburg Utilities and the four counties that border the lake.Hydrilla is native to central Africa but is now found in temperate and tropical regions around the world. It apparently entered the United States as an aquarium plant, and was sold to retail aquarium dealers across the country.In 1960 it was first discovered growing wild in Florida. Since its introduction in Florida, hydrilla has spread across the southern United States from the Atlantic Coast as far north as Washington, D.C., across the Gulf Coast into Texas, and west into Arizona and California.Hydrilla is usually a submersed plant, but it can grow to the surface and form dense mats thick enough for ducks to walk on. The plant stems are slender, branched and up to 25 feet long.It was first found in Lake Norman in 2000.Elliot says there have been parts of the lake where the concentration of hydrilla has been so thick it has prevented boats from reaching docks behind waterfront homes."Without identifying specific locations, I know that their presence has had an impact on the sale of some waterfront homes in the Lake Norman area," said Elliot.In addition to the economic impact, hydrilla can make swimming, boating, fishing and water-skiing difficult and dangerous, clog water intake systems, shade out desirable aquatic plants and provide breeding habitat for mosquitoes and other pests.The carp that officials use to battle the pesky growth live for as long as six years and will grow to sizes of 4 feet to 5 feet. The fish are sterile and it is illegal to catch and keep them.Lake Norman is by no means the only waterway in North Carolina where hydrilla can be found. Officials at Lake Wylie have been wrestling with the weed for several years with limited success, using a combination of carp and herbicides."Herbicides are expensive and essentially worthless," Elliot said."The best approach, in my opinion, is what we do: Stock the waters with carp year after year."According to the N.C. Agricultural Extension Service, the long life expectancy of the sterile carp makes them "a very attractive alternative to expensive herbicides."

Part 2
In Part 1 we discussed the wrong ways to
resign. These are the four rules of of how to resign right.
Rule #1: Make a decision before you
That might sound obvious, but you don't get it if
you use the offer to stimulate a counteroffer, as Ramesh did in the example above.
You should be 100 percent committed to the new job before
you resign from your present one. The moment of resignation is not part of the decision
Understand why you want the new job, and why you're
prepared to leave the old one to get it. Psychologically, you will be better prepared to
handle whatever comes next. While your resignation may trigger a counteroffer that you
ultimately accept, a counteroffer should not be the motivating force behind a resignation.
Ask Ramesh.
Rule #2: Calculate the value and
rely on the result.
People feel uncomfortable about resigning a job when they
worry that their employer will try to talk them out of it. If you can be talked out of
your decision, you haven't based it on very sound criteria. There may be other criteria
that are meaningful to you, but don't miss these basic ones.
The value of the technology and products.
Are you moving to a job where the technology and products represent a positive step for
you? Just because the technology is "leading edge" doesn't mean it holds value
for you. What matters is whether it fits into your plans for your future.
The value of the people and environment.
Will you be working with people whose attitudes, goals and style are a good match to your
own? Are you moving to a business environment where you will be content, if not wildly
The value of the learning opportunity.
Will you learn more at this new job than you already know about your work, your business,
your industry and yourself? This pertains to both the formal and the informal education
you stand to gain.
The value of the compensation.
Will you earn what you are worth? Will you be able to earn more as you grow?
This article isn't about how to evaluate a job offer.
(That's covered in Peeling The Offer.) But, if you calculate
the value of the offer carefully, your resignation will be less awkward because you'll
know exactly what you're doing and why. Lean on those calculations during any difficulty
in the transition.
Just as research about a company makes you a powerful job
candidate, careful decision-making about a new job makes you powerful when you resign. If
you think you might be talked out of resigning by your boss, you haven't reviewed your new
offer carefully enough, or it's not a job offer you really want. Be ready to resign, or
don't do it.
Rule #3: Get your ducks in a row.
Many people walk in to their boss's office, resign and open Pandora's Box. Make sure you
have the practical matters taken care of properly, and that you know which
"boxes" to keep a lid on.
What's the company's "exit policy"?
Poke around and find out how other people who've quit the company have been treated. Were
they walked to the exit by a security guard? Were they treated with respect? Did they get
any back pay owed them? How was unused vacation time handled? While individuals may be
handled differently, you'll be able to plan better if you know what the typical experience
has been. Ramesh skipped this rule, and wound up out on a limb.
Never resign one job unless you have the new
offer in writing.
I've seen job offers withdrawn just before and even after a new hire shows
up for work. It may not be legal, but go fight city hall. I've also seen candidates show
up for work only to learn that the position title isn't exactly what they were told and
that the terms of employment have changed a bit.
Avoid surprises: a written offer that includes all the
details makes it less likely that there will be serious misunderstandings than an oral
offer. A written offer also gives you a legal tool to support your position in a
Resign in writing and date your letter.
Give your resignation first to your boss, in private; then give a copy to Human Resources.
Once you are behind closed doors, all you need to say to your boss is, "I'm sorry to
tell you I am resigning my position."
It's not a good idea to let your boss learn of your
resignation from someone else, so think twice about who you confide in. The letter should
be just one sentence because sorry to be the cynic, but careers and lives might
hinge on this it can come back and bite you legally.
"I, John Jones, hereby resign my position with Acme
That's it. Sign, seal and deliver. Any other details can
be worked out through discussion, including how much notice will be given and when you'll
get your last paycheck. If you are forced to take legal action for any reason, or if the
company sues you for, say, stealing information, anything you put in your letter can be
used against you.
Don't explain, don't complain.
Remember: if you've made a firm decision to take a new job that's right for you,
your resignation should not be a discussion about what it would take to get you to stay.
That's another article, and another discussion to have with your boss long before you
start pursuing other jobs.
Likewise, your resignation should not be a forum where
you explain what's wrong with the company. Explanations lead to complaints, and complaints
can lead to problems. Even if the HR department wants you to share all your thoughts and
feelings in an exit interview, the time of your departure is not the time for you to help
fix what's broken at the company.
Such meetings can be helpful under the right
circumstances, but in my opinion this is no time to open your heart and tell all. It's too
risky, and there's zero upside for you. I'd politely decline. If HR isn't aware of any
problems that may have led you to resign, they're doing too little and they're asking too
late. Anything you say could hurt you. Tread very judiciously. Open up only to those you
trust, and only to the extent that you really think it matters.
Keep your future to yourself.
It's nice to share your new address with your buddies. But if, for example,
someone thinks your new employer is a competitor, suddenly that comfortable two-week
notice can turn into an immediate departure. Or worse.
I once placed a vice president who told his buddies about
his new job two weeks before his start date. The next day, the chief executive of the new
company got an anonymous call from a "resentful someone" who almost succeeded in
torpedoing the hire. In that case, the headhunter turned into the damage control officer.
Let your cronies know you'll be in touch when you start the new job then call them
a "safe" two weeks after you've started.
What if someone presses you? "I'd prefer not to
discuss my new job right now. A headhunter once told me it's the cleanest way to make a
transition. But, I'll call once I get situated because it's important to me to stay in
touch with you."
Make your last day a good one.
When an employer and a worker have a truly good relationship, parting can be
friendly, respectful and cooperative. Once your boss has accepted that you're leaving, let
him or her know that you consider it your responsibility to minimize the difficulty of the
transition for the company and for your manager.
"If you'd like me to prepare any materials for the
person who will replace me, or to actually help train someone, I'm ready to do that as
long as it doesn't interfere with a reasonable start date at my new job. How can I
That's how you find out how long the company would like
your "notice" to be. Expect and plan on two weeks of some of the hardest work
you've done; you owe that to a good employer before you leave.
By the way: if you'd like a week off between jobs,
arrange your start date accordingly. Don't count on the two-week notice being dispensed
with by the old employer.
If your boss wants you out immediately, this obviously
doesn't apply. But, you can make the offer anyway. These people have a business to run,
and you just told them you no longer want to be a part of it. So, be polite and
understanding if you're shown the door.
Rule #4: Build, don't burn, bridges.
Don't dwell on the potential risks and problems that your
job change causes. As long as you've calculated carefully, they're ephemeral. What counts
is your position in, and contribution to, your industry as a whole. That's where your true
equity in your career lies.
No matter who gets upset about the job change you make,
the awkwardness will pass if your cohorts are good people. That's why I suggest that the
kinds of people you join are as important as the work and the compensation. You will
likely see them again.
In or out of your presence, the people you work with help
define you they contribute to your knowledge, your philosophy and your reputation.
So, add a little extra mortar to the foundation of the relationships you have. Build those
bridges a little stronger.
It's said that "what goes around, comes
around." I also believe that "who goes around, comes around." So no matter
how much you want to vent your spleen or your opinions, swallow your vituperations. Make a
point of shaking hands with everyone you've worked with. The nice thing about a handshake
is that it doesn't require words, and it allows you to both emphasize your respect and to
hide your negative feelings. Then, prepare to meet your cohorts again after you move

I tried a dram sample and found this to be simply delightful. It's a sweet Whisky that is very accurately described in the tasting notes above. But smooth as velvet and absolutely a treat to enjoy. This would be a perfect drink after any meal. If you like Macallan 12 yr., then you'll love this.
21st July 2014
I have had a taste for Edradour since I first visited in 1998 before the ownership change. The products are always drinkable and worth sharing with mates although overpriced when compared to the class of an Ardbeg. BUT READ ON!
I looked forward to visiting this distillery once again on a return tour to Scotland. but will never ever again visit or buy their whisky. I had booked to do the tour but my elderly mother , who is blind and ninety years old obviously was clearly unable to do this. However, to my total disgust an overbearing peasant-class sort of person, whom I believe may be the owner, refused her entry to the toilets. This to me, is the most incredible crass behaviour that I have ever experienced as a visitor to Scotland. Was it really YOU Andrew Symington who refused an old lady, blind from Macular Eye Degeneration, entry to your toilets. Did you choose not to see her 'white stick' or do you just have those 50 pound notes across your eyeballs man? I notice that about 25% of your revues are "Terrible". I might suggest that you take a trip to Islay and experience the wonderful service that all the distilleries there provide. I just made a whisky buying trip there last weekend and savoured the hospitality and their product. I absolutely suggest that your Edradour be removed from the itinerary of any visitors to Scotland there are many pleasant places to go - and where the whisky tastes better!
NOTE TO THE SCOTTISH TOURISM BOARD: Watch out for this kind of poor product on offer to we International visitors. It leaves a long, lingering bad taste.

Nice but prefer the 10 yr old
21st March 2014
I tried quite a lot of Single Malts before and my cabinet is filled with loads of bottles, but I have to say this is, by far - my new favourite. I will try the other Edradours too because I think I found "my brand". Compared to my "old favourite", which is the Redbreast 12, this is a very "manly" Malt, in my opinion it is like malts are supposed to be.
I like to compare whiskies which each other, so here it goes: The Malt is very intesinsive and which is, I assume the charackter of Edradour. you have it in the 10 yo old too, but not that much, which I assume comes frome the 46% non-chill filterage. It is very thick in the mouth, like the Aberlour 12 non-chill filtered but not as "fresh" fruity. It is more like old juicy fruits, all together with this sickness and this special aroma, where I ask myself if it is a hint of smoke or not
19th December 2013
Sampled at the distillery and quickly became a family favourite. Good, wholesome and traditional stuff, with its own quirky character, just like the distillery - well worth a visit. Nose: Gentle sherry and smooth, lightly spiced oak. Honey and cream, touch of nutmeg and dried Christmas fruits, and a hint of peel. Palate: Well-rounded and quite thick with a rich sherry tone and more dried fruits. Honey and treacle flavours develop, and that toasty butteriness identified above really comes through. Subtle hint of nuts. Finish: Good length, warming with more toasted oak and malty butter notes. Quite dry with more nutmeg and spices, and a hint of heather honey sweetness. A drop of water brings out the sweetness and more of the nutty tones, making almonds and pecans identifiable, nicely complimenting the vanilla.
18th April 2013
Not especially complex, certainly not as treacly as sherry cask maturation can be, but everyone who tried it was happy.

Bookeyed by Crystal Kluge for Font Diner Type
Meet Bookeyed Jack and Suzanne! Bookeyed Jack is strong enough
to command the page, yet he doesn't complain when others get more
attention. His handsome good looks were hand drawn with pointed pen
in walnut ink. He adores books & music, posters &
stationery and spending time with his stylish cousin Suzannne. Our
darling Suzanne, she's personable and flexible with a large number
of alternative glyphs & ligatures to customize her appearance.
A modern girl with vintage charms, she's equally comfortable placed
as center of attention or in a supporting role. Her stylish serifs
were created with antique French nibs dipped in walnut ink. Suzanne
(like her cousin Jack) loves books for adults & children,
posters, stationery, weddings, gifts and sugary sour candy.

Expert type designer Alex Kaczun has over two decades of heavy
hitting typography know-how etched into his belt. He logged
in a substantial amount of time at the premier foundry
Linotype-Hell, where he was tasked with modernizing the Linotype
Library as well as managing the development of the Adobe
Post-Script Font Library. More recently he's designed
hundreds of book jacket layouts and designs and has established his
own foundry, Type Innovations. We caught up with Alex and put
him in the typographic hot seat:
I like the look of distressed type. However, some of the awful
grunge typography of the late 1990s was grossly overused and
hopefully will never make a come back again. I feel experimentation
is a good thing-but, typography without proper spacing will destroy
legibility. The aim of good typography should always be getting the
message across to the reader.
All typography is interesting and has its applications and
functionality. In particular, I have an affinity for clean, crisp,
san-serif fonts. I feel they will never go out of style. My
favorite go-to typeface family is Frutiger. It's a classic and
always will be.
People are always looking for new approaches and creative ways
in making fonts. I really like and think that fonts composed of
several overlapping design elements, or style variants, offer an
interesting direction. There are some very good examples of this
coming from Daniel Hernández and Paula Nazal Selaive at Latinotype.
I'm currently working on a typeface series with similar added
"components"-integrating different elements to create alternate
styles and variants. Stay tuned.
The first font I designed was crafted technically very well, but
it lacked charm and charisma. I think that it's important to design
your new typeface with its own unique personality. It's okay to
draw inspiration from existing fonts but bring something of your
own to them and to the overall design process.
I'm an avid collector of type memorabilia and obsessed with
anything typographic. I just bought the 2nd release of Andrew
Scrabble Typography Edition complete with 15 new
fonts, the 2nd edition is a typography nut's dream. Love it!

Fugu by Neil Summerour for Positype
After his success with the rough script forms of Baka Expert,
Neil Summerour shied away from handwritten scripts. Some years
later Neil was drawn to some Sumi-brush doodles he had done around
the time of Bakas release, initially intended as a sibling to Baka.
As soon as brush hit paper Fugu took on a life of its own.
Fugu is far more expressive, smooth and rough, tasty but sticky.
This dichotomy demanded a new name. Fugu is the Japanese name for
Blowfish or Pufferfish, a delicacy, which if prepared improperly
can be toxic and even deadly. The fonts rough and smooth texture
suggests Fugu is oddly delicate while rough and functional.

Friendly by Neil Summerour for
Friendly is an homage to Morris Fuller Benton's adorable
Announcement typeface. It is not a strict interpretation, digital
revival or reverent reproduction of the original letterforms… but
we would be remiss to not acknowledge the letterforms that inspired
this typeface.
Infused with stylistic alternates, swashes, titling, many many
contextual alternates, 9 stylistic sets and 2 stylistic sets with
wordmarks, the typeface surely lives up to its name. Loops, swashes
and typographic indulgences abound.

It's time for the Release Rewind! If you haven't already taken a look at the new products released this month, be sure to check them out HERE.
The first card that I have to share with you today is another mixed media project. At first, I was seriously scared of the whole mixed media thing, but I am really starting to enjoy it!
I started out with a sheet of Smooth White card stock and I added a sheet of Tim Holtz Tissue paper. After a quick layer of Gesso, I added some color with my new Gelatos. I LOVE those little crayons!
I stamped the script stamp from the Art Expression stamp set on one corner of the card stock. The butterfly was die cut from a piece of Grape Jelly card stock and then stamped with Black Licorice Premium Dye Ink.
The sentiment from the Chalkboard Greetings stamp set was stamped in the other corner.
To add extra dimension I used the Stone Wall Stencil with Blu Raspberry and Grape Jelly Premium Dye ink.
On the inside of the card I stamped a sentiment from the Happy Thoughts stamp set.
My second card features the new Sun-Ray Die-namics. This is such a fun die to work with. I started with a piece of Smooth White card stock. I mixed some MIX-ables Sheer Shimmer Mist with some Lemon Drop Ink Refill and I spritzed the card stock. Once it was dry, I used the Sun-Ray Die-namics.
I sponged the edges of the sun rays with Orange Fizz Premium Dye ink. I stamped a sentiment from the On the Line stamp set in the middle of the sun.
On the inside of the card, I used the Vertical Frame Die-namics and a greeting from the Chalkboard Greetings stamp set.
My final project for today is a tag book that features the new MIX-ables Mist and our Ink Refills. We have two colors of MIX-ables Mist, Sheer Shimmer Mist and Steel Shimmer Mist. You can use these mists on their own or you can combine them with our ink refills.
This first card shows the mists on thier own. The top portion of the tag is the Sheer Shimmer Mist, the bottom portion is the Steel Shimmer Mist.
I created a tag for each of the colors that we currently have ink pads and refills for. The top of each tag is the ink refill mixed with the Sheer Shimmer Mist. The bottom of each tag is the ink refill mixed with the Steel Shimmer Mist.
I really love that you get a darker, deeper color with the Steel Shimmer Mist.
I mixed around 6 drops of ink refill with about 30 or so drops of the mist.
Instead of using a mister to color the card stock, I mixed the ink refill and the mist in a paint palette and I brushed the color onto the tag.
I love having this resource on my desk. Hopefully, it will save me from spritzing the wrong color on a project.
I used Smooth White card stock for the tags and I printed the names on X-Press It card stock.
The tags were quite wet and messy when I finished painting. As I like things to be nice and neat, I added a clean white tag to the back of each tag.
Here's one last look at all the tags together.
Be sure to check out the MFT Blog to see what all the designers have created to share with you.

David Henshaw was born in Leicester, Massachusetts, on 2 April 1791. Trained as a druggist, he achieved notable success in that field, then expanded his energies into banking, transportation and politics. He was elected to the Massachusetts Senate in 1826 and served as Collector of the Port of Boston from the late 1820s until 1838. Though he suffered business reverses during the later 1830s, Henshaw regained his political position as a leader of the Massachusetts Democratic Party within a few years.
In July 1843, President John Tyler selected David Henshaw to succeed Abel P. Upshur as Secretary of the Navy. During his brief term in office, he addressed shipbuilding problems, selected senior officers for important seagoing commands, revised supply arrangements in the Navy Yards and attempted to establish a school for Midshipmen. His recess appointment as Secretary failed to receive Congressional confirmation, requiring that he leave office when Thomas W. Gilmer was confirmed to succeed him. David Henshaw then returned to Massachusetts politics. He died on 11 November 1852.
USS Henshaw (DD-278), 1919-1930, was named in honor of Secretary of the Navy Henshaw.

Long-Sleeved Burnout Velvet Shirt 2 2
Pretty jacket I had been searching fof a black jacket. This came close to what I was looking for. It is sheer and really good lookingl However, the buttons and button holes are so tiny. I could not open some of them. I had to have the button holes enlarged. And I evened out the front hemline, which was longer in the front. It does look very nice now. I expect to get a lot of wear out of it. December 17, 2013

Under rating threshold (hideshow) Looks really cool, but not much I could do by way of user input. Too many enemies and too frantic, so it would end up being just me with the bots at the bottom spamming back and forth the bullets at the top while using the laser cannons all the time. ended with a score of 2.3 million. 3/5

Check out these interesting Islands, very interesting info! Includes the Alcatraz Island, Easter Island, Sealand, Surtsey & the Gunkanjima!
Alcatraz Island (sometimes informally referred to as simply Alcatraz or by its pop-culture name, The Rock) is a small island located in the middle of San Francisco Bay in California, United States. It served as a lighthouse, then a military fortification, then a military prison followed by a federal prison until 1963, when it became a national recreation area. The first European to discover the island was Juan de Ayala in 1775, who charted the San Francisco Bay and named the island "La Isla de los Alcatraces", which means "Island of the Pelicans".
Easter Island is one of the world's most isolated inhabited islands. It is 3,600 km (2,237 miles) west of continental Chile and 2,075 km (1,290 miles) east of Pitcairn. Nowdays, it is a Chilean-governed island, and is a world heritage site with much of the island protected by the Rapa Nui National Park.
First settled by a small party of Polynesians, Easter Island is one of the youngest inhabited territories on Earth, and for most of its history it was the most isolated inhabited territory on Earth. Its inhabitants the Rapanui have endured famines, epidemics, civil war, slave raids and colonialism; have seen their population crash on more than one occasion, and created a cultural legacy that has brought them fame out of all proportion to their numbers.
The Principality of Sealand is an island and a micronation located on HM Fort Roughs, a former Maunsell Sea Fort located in the North Sea 10 km (six miles) off the coast of Suffolk, England, in what is claimed as territorial waters using a twelve-nautical-mile radius.
Off the coast of Iceland on the morning of 14 November 1963, the crew of a lone fishing trawler spotted an alarming sight. Off to the southwest of the Ísleifur II, a column of dark smoke was rising from the water. Concerned that it could be another boat on fire, the captain directed his vessel towards the scene. Once there, however, they found not a boat but a series of violent explosions producing ash. This was an unmistakable indication of a volcanic eruption taking place underwater, close to the surface. Very aware of the potential danger but eager to watch, the crew kept their boat nearby. It was indeed a remarkable event that they would witness a small part of over the course of that morning: the formation of a brand-new island.
Although now quite visible, the eruption lasted for much, much longer than the Ísleifur II would have been able to watch. After several days, the volcano had broken the water's surface, forming an island over 500 meters long and 45 meters tall. Even though the rough tides of the North Atlantic might have soon eroded the new island away, it was named Surtsey, meaning 'Surtur's island' - Surtur (or Surtr) being a fire giant of Norse mythology. The island proved to be tenacious, however. The eruption was ongoing and Surtsey increased in size more quickly than the ocean could wear it down. In the meantime two other nearby volcanic eruptions produced the beginnings of islands, but neither lasted very long. By April 1964, though, the most violent parts of the eruption were over and Surtsey remained.
Gunkanjima is one among 505 uninhabited islands in the Nagasaki Prefecture about 15 kilometers from Nagasaki itself. The island was populated from 1887 to 1974 as a coal mining facility. The island's most notable features are the abandoned concrete buildings and the sea wall surrounding it. It is known for its coal mines and their operation during the industrialization of Japan. Mitsubishi bought the island in 1890 and began the project, the aim of which was retrieving coal from the bottom of the sea. They built Japan's first large concrete building, a block of apartments in 1916 to accommodate their burgeoning ranks of workers, and to protect against typhoon destruction.
In 1959, its population density was 835 people per hectare for the whole island, or 1,391 per hectare for the residential district, one of the highest population density ever recorded worldwide. As petroleum replaced coal in Japan in the 1960s, coal mines began shutting down all over the country, and Hashima's mines were no exception. Mitsubishi officially announced the closing of the mine in 1974, and today it is empty and bare, which is why it's called the Ghost Island. Travel to Hashima is currently prohibited.
